Good pizza base
Posted by erinconnors on Jul 26, 2013
Pizza Base 1.5 cups buckwheat flour 3 TBS Arrowroot flour ½ tbs sea salt ½ teaspoon baking soda 1 cup warm water ¼ cup macadamia oil 1 TBS ACV Method Preheat oven to 190 In a mixing bowl, mix the wet ingredients into the dry and whisk together well using electric beater or a food processor until you see long dough strings formed. Line a 30cm tray with baking paper. Scoop out the dough- it will begin to thicken as it sits- and with wet hands work the dough into a circle, covering the tray. Once it is shaped, bake the crust for 20-25 mins to your preferred crispness Top with toppings and bake further if required
Very dark
Posted by tinatherese on Sep 27, 2011
This flour is very dark, has a strong flavour and is not as tasty as the lighter (in colour) buckwheat flours I have tried. It taste ok, but dont think I will buy it again...

Moot Court Teams Return from First Amendment and Entertainment Law Competitions with Honors
Upholding its tradition in excellence in the Moot Court arena, Southwestern's teams excelled at the Burton D. Wechsler First Amendment Moot Court Competition held in early November in Washington, D.C., as well as at the Tenth Annual National Entertainment Law Moot Court Competition held in mid-November at Pepperdine Law School in Malibu.
In the competition, Southwestern's team represented a law school that was sued by a religious student organization, Lawyers for Christ (LFC). The law school denied LFC official recognition, claiming that the organization's bylaws requiring all members to sign a faith pledge condemning sexual activity outside of marriage, including homosexual conduct. The law school contended that these rules discriminated against homosexuals and violated the school's policy. LFC claimed that the school's actions violated both its First Amendment right to expressive association and the Establishment Clause. "As counsel for the school, we argued that the school did not violate LFC's expressive association rights because the school's policy permissibly regulates conduct, not speech," Romano said. "Similarly, the school's policy comports with the Establishment Clause because the policy was neutral, generally applicable, and did not promote or prohibit any particular religion."
Romano, a third-year day student, said that dealing with the "hard" facts of the problem was a challenge. "There were a few facts in the problem that seemed completely against our side but we were creative and addressed them - either arguing why those facts were irrelevant or why they were actually favorable to our side. I guess that is the art (and the fun!) of appellate advocacy."
Preparation, experience (Francescon, who serves as Moot Court Chair, is also a third-year day student, and Bidrossian is in SCALE II) and teamwork helped Southwestern's trio prepare. "Our team got along famously which I think really gave us the edge. We were all so positive and so supportive of each other throughout the entire process that by the time we got to competition we were really ready to compete - both substantively and mentally."
Romano also credits Professor Carpenter and Board Advisor Lindsay Harrell's contributions to the team's success. "This team worked incredible hard and very well together from the first moment that the problem was received," Professor Carpenter said. "Their chemistry was terrific."

Opening orchestra concert features favorites
Posted October 14, 2008; 11:12 p.m.
The Princeton University Orchestra will open its 31st season under conductor Michael Pratt with concerts at 8 p.m. Friday and Saturday, Oct. 17-18, in Richardson Auditorium, Alexander Hall.
The concert will feature four favorites from the French, Russian and American repertory. It will open with a short work, the "Hungarian March," from "The Damnation of Faust" by Hector Berlioz, and continue with one of Russian master Nikolai Rimsky-Korsakov's most popular works, "Capriccio Espagnol."
"One of a relatively small handful of orchestral works by Rimsky-Korsakov (he was primarily an opera composer), the 'Capriccio' makes brilliant use of Spanish dances and song," Pratt said. "It's virtuosic solo work and infectious energy make it a perennial favorite."
After intermission the orchestra will play one of Igor Stravinsky's most important works from his neo-classical period, the Symphony in Three Movements. "Stravinsky was a student of Rimsky-Korsakov, and through all his music we can hear the brilliance of the old master's orchestration," Pratt said. "The symphony was inspired by newsreel images of World War II and captures both the dramatic struggle and eventual triumph of those years, and is music of driving intensity."
The program concludes with one of American master George Gershwin's most enduring and beloved works, "An American in Paris." "Whether he was writing for Broadway or the full symphony orchestra, his inspiration matched that of any composer of his time, and he was widely admired by all the European masters," Pratt said. "'An American in Paris' may be about strolling down the Champs Elysees, but the sound of the music is pure NYC -- sassy, bluesy, soulfully ecstatic, Gershwin's beloved New York."
Tickets for the concert are $18 for general admission, $15 for seniors and $5 for students, and are available at the Richardson Auditorium and Frist Campus Center ticket offices, or online through University Ticketing.

Normal Hips, Early Dysplasia,
Moderate Dysplasia, Severe Dysplasia
Hip dysplasia is a common and potentially debilitating joint disease in dogs. Although occurring in many canine lines, hip dysplasia most often affects large dog breeds. The Golden and Labrador Retrievers, German Shepherd Dogs, Rottweilers, and Chow Chows are particularly susceptible to hip dysplasia. Fortunately, there are a number of treatment options available for dogs afflicted with this painful and degenerative disease. Normal, healthy hip joint with a deep acetabular cup and healthy cartilage in the cup and on the ball of the femur.
Note how the head of the femur sits tightly within the acetabulum. Early/Mild dysplastic hip with no degenerative changes. Note how joint laxity allows the head of the femur to subluxate. The acetabular cup may be abnormally shallow and the joint may exhibit laxity. This stage of hip dysplasia can often be treated with corrective surgery (see TPO in this brochure) before the disease progresses requiring more invasive and costly surgery. Moderate/ Severe hip dysplasia is recognized by the cartilage fibrillation and erosion on the ball of the femur and the acetabular cup. There is also a buildup of osteophytes (bone spurs and calcium deposits) around the rim of the acetabular cup.
This is a very painful joint that requires corrective surgery to alleviate the pain and return the joint to normal function. If corrective action is not taken then the dysplasia will inevitably progress to severe. Severe dysplasia is common in older dogs whose hip dysplasia has gone untreated for an extended period of time. This hip joint has severe arthritis. Note the flattening of the head of the femur and added bone fillings around the neck of the femur and within the acetabulum This dog's joint requires a total hip replacement to restore his quality of life and provide him with a pain-free, normal functional hip joint.
What is hip dysplasia?
Hip dysplasia is a developmental disorder affecting the coxofemoral (hip) joints in dogs. The problems associated with hip dysplasia stem from an imbalance in the muscle mass and mechanical forces which are centered on the hip joint. This imbalance is associated with excessive laxity (looseness) which is usually the result of a shallow acetabulum (cup).
When the hip joints exhibit laxity (looseness), the ball of the femur rides on the edge of the socket rather than gliding smoothly in the socket. This results in pain and eventually to the formation of abnormal calcium deposits, bone spurs and/or arthritis. Eventually, some hip joints will suffer either a partial or complete luxation.
Continued use of the affected joint causes abnormal wear on the joint's cartilage surfaces leading to further damage and a self-perpetuating degenerative process ensues.
Abnormal bony development of the hip joint often results, and inflammation and irritation (arthritis) ultimately cause mild to severe lameness. The joint capsule becomes inflamed and a subsequent increase in synovial fluid in the joint exacerbates the laxity.
These physiological changes should be dealt with early (between 4 and 8 months) to attempt to reduce the progress toward degenerative joint disease. The hallmark sign of degenerative joint disease is articular cartilage damage.
This results in the exposure of subchondral bone and pain nerve fibers resulting in significant joint pain. Once degenerative joint disease is present, there a fewer treatment options available.
Breeds Commonly Affected by Canine Hip Dysplasia
The Genetics of Hip Dysplasia
The heritability of hip dysplasia has been firmly established. Several genes have been found to contribute to the ultimate size, shape, strength and growth potential of the hip joint. Furthermore, hip dysplasia is a genetically additive disease; the severity of the affliction is largely the result of a number of disease-related genes present in a particular animal.
The multitude of genetic and environmental factors that influence the transmission and development of hip dysplasia make it difficult to predict how the disease will be expressed. It is safe to say that breeding dogs between phenotypically normal dogs will generally result in more normal puppies than will breeding a dysplastic and normal dog or two dysplastic dogs to each other. However, studies have shown that even when both parents are phenotypically normal they can still produce offspring that are phenotypically dysplastic [1]. In spite of careful breeding efforts and the use of classifications from the Orthopedic Foundation for Animals (OFA), such as breeding animals whose parents and grandparents were normal, the progress toward eradication of this disease has been frustratingly slow.
The OFA Hip Registry
The Orthopedic Foundation for Animal's Hip Registry is designed to provide a standardized criterion for evaluation of CHD and develop a multi-breed database. This database is used to develop selective breeding programs that reduce the prevalence of CHD. The OFA requires symmetrical radiographs of the pelvis. These radiographs are evaluated by three board certified radiologists and classified as excellent, good, fair, borderline, mild, moderate or severe. Excellent or good classifications on individuals older than 24 months receive a breed registry number. A preliminary evaluation may be performed as early as 4-5 months with 90% accuracy.
Environmental Factors and Hip Dysplasia
Environmental factors do not cause hip dysplasia but can significantly affect whether or not the condition will eventually manifest itself and to what degree. Environmental influences help explain the fact that only animals with a hip dysplasia genotype can develop the condition while not all animals with the genotype will exhibit the disease.
Nutrition in the young dog is one of the most studied exogenous elements affecting the development of hip dysplasia and may have a profound influence on the development of the disease. One study noted that only 33% of dogs that were fed ad libitum developed normal hips, whereas 70% of the dogs that were fed one quarter of the same diet developed normal hips. Another study in German Shepherds showed that 63% of the dogs weighing more than the mean, developed dysplastic hips.
In contrast, 37% of the dogs that weighed less than the mean developed dysplastic hips [2]. Puppies that are genotypically susceptible to canine hip dysplasia will exhibit an increased incidence and severity if placed on a high caloric diet. These studies strongly suggest that limiting caloric intake in young, growing dogs (especially the larger at risk breeds) is beneficial in preventing the development of canine hip dysplasia.
Clinical Signs of Hip Dysplasia
Dogs suffering from hip dysplasia are often reluctant to jump or rise from the rear legs, exhibit abnormal locomotion and may hesitate to climb and descend stairs. Young dogs in the age range of five to ten months may exhibit pain when the hips are extended. In addition, there may be evidence of decreased muscle mass and a reduced range of motion. Many of these young dogs have a torn round ligament and a significantly stretched joint capsule. Clinical signs often do not correlate well with radiographic changes in young dogs.
Hip dysplasia literally means an abnormality in the development of the hip joint. It is characterized by a shallow acetabulum (the "cup" of the hip joint) and changes in the shape of the femoral head (the "ball" of the hip joint). These changes may occur due to excessive laxity in the hip joint.
Hip dysplasia can exist with or without clinical signs. When dogs exhibit clinical signs of this problem they usually are lame on one or both rear limbs. Severe arthritis can develop as a result of the malformation of the hip joint and this results in pain as the disease progresses. Many young dogs exhibit pain during or shortly after the growth period, often before arthritic changes appear to be present. It is not unusual for this pain to appear to disappear for several years and then to return when arthritic changes become obvious.
Dogs with hip dysplasia appear to be born with normal hips and then to develop the disease later. This has led to a lot of speculation as to the contributing factors which may be involved with this disease. This is an inherited condition, but not all dogs with the genetic tendency will develop clinical signs and the degree of hip dysplasia which develops does not always seem to correlate well with expectations based on the parent's condition. Multiple genetic factors are involved and environmental factors also play a role in determining the degree of hip dysplasia. Dogs with no genetic predisposition do not develop hip dysplasia.
At present, the strongest link to contributing factors other than genetic predisposition appears to be to rapid growth and weight gain. In a recent study done in Labrador retrievers a significant reduction in the development of clinical hip dysplasia occurred in a group of puppies fed 25% less than a control group which was allowed to eat free choice. It is likely that the laxity in the hip joints is irritated by the rapid weight gain. If feeding practices are altered to reduce hip dysplasia in a litter of puppies, it is probably best to use a puppy food and feed smaller quantities than to switch to an adult dog food. The calcium/phosphorous to calorie ratios in adult dog food are such that the puppy will usually end up with higher than desired total calcium or phosphorous intake by eating an adult food. This occurs because more of these foods are necessary to meet the caloric needs of puppies, even when feeding to keep the puppy thin.
If clinical signs of hip dysplasia occur in young dogs, such as lameness, difficulty standing or walking after getting up, decreased activity or a bunny-hop gait, it is often possible to help them medically or surgically. X-ray confirmation of the presence of hip dysplasia prior to treatment is necessary. There are two techniques currently used to detect hip dysplasia, the standard view used in Orthopedic Foundation for Animals (OFA) testing and X-rays (radiographs) utilizing a device to exaggerate joint laxity developed by the University of Pennsylvania Hip Improvement Program (PennHIP). The PennHIP radiographs appear to be a better method for judging hip dysplasia early in puppies, with one study showing good predictability for hip dysplasia in puppies exhibiting joint laxity at four months of age, based on PennHIP radiographs.
Once a determination is made that hip dysplasia is present, a treatment plan is necessary. For dogs that exhibit clinical signs at less than a year of age, aggressive treatment may help alleviate later suffering. In the past a surgery known as a pectineal myotomy was advocated but more recent evidence suggests that it is an ineffective surgical procedure. However, administration of glycosaminoglycans (Adequan Rx) may help to decrease the severity of arthritis that develops later in life. Surgical reconstruction of the hip joint (triple pelvic osteotomy) is helpful if done during the growth stages. For puppies with clinical signs at a young age, this surgery should be strongly considered. It has a high success rate when done at the proper time.
Dogs that exhibit clinical signs after the growth phase require a different approach to treatment. It is necessary to determine if the disorder can be managed by medical treatment enough to keep the dog comfortable. If so, aspirin is probably the best choice for initial medical treatment. Aspirin/codeine combinations, phenylbutazone, glycosaminoglycosans and corticosteroids may be more beneficial or necessary for some dogs. It is important to use appropriate dosages and to monitor the progress of any dog on non-steroidal or steroidal anti-inflammatory medications due to the increased risk of side effects to these medications in dogs.
If medical treatment is insufficient then surgical repair is possible. The best surgical treatment for hip dypslasia is total hip replacement. By removing the damaged acetabulum and femoral head and replacing them with artificial joint components, pain is nearly eliminated. This procedure is expensive but it is very effective and should be the first choice for treatment of severe hip dyplasia whenever possible. In some cases, this surgery may be beyond a pet owner's financial resources. An alternative surgery is femoral head ostectomy. In this procedure, the femoral head (ball part of the hip joint) is simply removed. This eliminates most of the bone to bone contact and can reduce the pain substantially. Not all dogs do well following FHO surgery and it should be considered a clear "second choice".

By Brandon Speck/NEMS Daily Journal
ORLANDO, Fla. – Robert Nkemdiche probably feels the most alone on the football field.
The Loganville, Ga., 5-star defensive end has been unanimously tabbed as the best high school football player in the country.
At an Under Armour All-America luncheon this week, Nkemdiche somehow managed to finish off his meal as reporters flocked to his table for interviews. He granted every request.
Nkemdiche and the all-stars spent part of Thursday laying sod on a youth football field as a community service project.
He isn't that friendly on the field and credits his work ethic for his success.
"I'm always ready to learn something new. It doesn't matter how good I think I am or how good everybody thinks I am," he said. "I feel like there is always more to learn."
options open
What makes Nkemdiche an interesting figure in North Mississippi is the possibility of what his future holds. A one-time Clemson commit, he has Ole Miss in the lead as national signing day approaches in February.
Nkemdiche says LSU and Florida are still very much in the mix. His older brother, Denzel, is a star linebacker for Ole Miss.
"I don't want to compare him to a pro because that's not fair to the guy, but he has a body like Julius Peppers," Under Armour Nitro coach Herm Edwards said. "You play football with your legs. You've got to have some potatoes in your sack. He's got potatoes in his sack."
Today's Under Armour All-America Game is scheduled for 4 p.m. at Tropicana Field in St. Petersburg. ESPN will televise the game live. Several recruits will be making their announcements, but not Nkemdiche. The 6-foot-5, 265-pounder said it's not hard to stay grounded amid the attention.
"I was very humbled by my D-line coach at Grayson.
"He always kept me level-headed," Nkemdiche said.
The game features several undecided prospects, including Houston 5-star defensive end Chris Jones, a Mississippi State commi, who added an offer from Ole Miss Tuesday. South Panola's Antonio Conner was originally going to announce tonight but has postponed until Feb. 3.
Crete, Ill., wide receiver Laquon Treadwell is the country's top-rated receiver and has Ole Miss in the mix, along with Oklahoma and Oklahoma State.
Auburn High school linebacker Reuben Foster, the nation's top linebacker, has been committed to Alabama and Auburn and both of those schools hope late-comers Washington, Georgia and Miami don't steal him away.
Auburn has multiple interests here in Muscle Shoals 4-star lineman Dee Liner and top-rated weakside linebacker Carl Lawson. Auburn hopes to hang on to both after the coaching change.

I mentioned this breaking of below-market leases briefly in the thread on IRS spending conferences ...
Here is more in-depth about this stupidity at GSA.
Two weeks ago I reported on the $250 million real estate boondoggle by the General Services Administration whereby the GSA is moving the Coast Guard out of an existing, below-market lease at the cost to taxpayers of $250 million dollars.
Today Im reporting on another, MORE EXPENSIVE real estate boondoggle by the GSA, which leads me to believe that if Congress is really serious about making real cuts to federal expenses that they can start with some easy cuts on federal real estate and personnel costs at the GSA.
Thats because according to the House Committee on Transportation and Infrastructure, the Nuclear Regulatory Commission, in collusion with our friends at the GSA, has ignored their $38 million authorization by the Committee on Transportation and Infrastructure to lease 120,000 square feet for NRC projected employee increases, and instead [committed] to a lease for 358,000 square feet that is costing taxpayers $350 million.
Talk about an increase in allowance.
More disturbing still is that the General Services Administration seems to have no fear that: 1) Misleading Congress, as is the case with the Coast Guard move, will get them in trouble; or 2) Spending a combined $600 million in vacant office space- that we know of so far- at a time when politicians are asking Americans to pay more in taxes, might cause some voters to rebel at the polls.
The Subcommittee today questioned the NRC and the GSA about their plans to ensure the costs of their previous decisions are minimized, said a statement released by the House Committee on Transportation and Infrastructure after both the NRC and the GSA appeared before the committee. During questioning however, it became clear that neither agency had any specific plan in place to fill the NRCs empty building space taxpayers are now paying for.
Well at least thats better than lying to Congress, which could be the less generous way of describing the testimony of the GSA on the lease that was broken by the agency on behalf of the Coast Guard.
In the best case, it seems, what the GSA is really saying is: We arent liars per se, were just really incompetent.
Thats not surprising, since its the standard patter coming from D.C. when anyone wishes to avoid responsibility, solutions, budget cuts or criminal charges.
Fortunately, the acting head of the General Services Administration, Dan Tangherlini, will appear before the Senate on Tuesday for confirmation hearings that one might suppose he hopes will make him the permanent head of the GSA.
Tangherlini, 45, was appointed 14 months ago to help clean up the GSA after a series of embarrassing revelations about mismanagement at the agency, which has seen its budget skyrocket from less than a billion dollars to close to $4 billion under Obama.
This will give U.S. Senators some time to separate the wheat from the chaff, so to speak, on reform of the GSA from the very guy now overseeing two notable screw-ups by an agency that influences budget matters for the entire government.
And they should demand some answers to some very tough questions, such as:
- Was Dorothy Robyn lying to Congress when she said that breaking the Coast Guard lease deal at 2100 2nd Street, SW, Washington D.C. would not cost the taxpayers money when we all know there is a significant lease exposure?
- How much taxpayer money will be lost by keeping this building vacant? How much will be lost by paying for more expensive space elsewhere?
- If you are considering backfilling the space why not keep workers there while enjoying the below market rates as long as you can? Does it make financial sense to move government workers twice between now and the end of the lease term? Is this about the PR battle, political points, or saving real dollars here?
- As Administrator of the GSA will you continue ignore leases that were negotiated to provide below market rates, in deference of more expensive ones?
- Are you troubled by this trend in light of the Nuclear Regulatory Commission recently committing taxpayers to a $350 million building it proposed to walk away from and let taxpayers pick up the tab?

Home>About Us>Press Room>2010 Press Releases>Portrait of Brian Friel Unveiled
Press Release: 16 July 2010
A portrait of Brian Friel, renowned playwright and author, was unveiled today (Friday 16 July) in the National Gallery of Ireland by Mary Hanafin, T.D., Minister for Tourism, Culture and Sport.
The portrait, by Mick O'Dea RHA, was commissioned in 2009 by the Gallery's Board of Governors and Guardians on the occasion of the playwright's 80th birthday as part of the contemporary portrait series.
Congratulating artist Mick O'Dea for his portraiture, Minister Mary Hanafin said: "Mick O'Dea has produced a thoughtful and sensitive portrait of Brian Friel, who is one of Ireland's most prominent playwrights, theatre directors and authors. Brian has made an enormous contribution to the cultural life of the nation and his influence on current and the new generation of Irish writers is profound. His work has greatly enhanced the reputation of Ireland and Irish theatre. O'Dea's portrait will now add to the wonderful collection at the National Gallery as it records one of our historic figures and major living playwrights."
Friel was born in Omagh, County Tyrone. In 1962, he published his first collection, The Saucer of Larks, and saw his first major theatrical work The Enemy Within produced to critical acclaim. This paved the way for Philadelphia Here I Come!, which was staged as part of the Dublin Theatre Festival in 1964 and firmly established Friel's reputation. He was a founder member in 1980 of Field Day, the theatre company that staged his new play Translations. That work and his more recent Dancing at Lughnasa (1990) have become classics of Irish theatre. Friel has penned more than twenty plays in total, including adaptations of work by such writers as Turgenev and Chekhov, demonstrating consistently both formal innovation and an extraordinary skill in the writing of dialogue.
Clare-born artist, Mick O'Dea has won several awards and has contributed to many exhibitions in Ireland and overseas. In 1996 he was elected both a Royal Hibernian Academician and a member of Aosdána.
In this three-quarter length portrait the artist depicts Friel in contemplative pose and focuses on the playwright's characteristic mannerism in bringing his fingertips together to touch his face, a gesture which enhances the cerebral quality of the portrait.
Raymond Keaveney, Director of the National Gallery said: "We are delighted and honoured to include this portrait of Brian Friel as part of the growing National Portrait Collection. One of the ways in which the National Gallery remains relevant to contemporary society and the contemporary arts is by engaging with the art of portraiture. It is important to keep the tradition of portraiture alive whilst at the same time celebrating the great portraits of the past in the work of artists like William Orpen, whose portrait of John McCormack has proved very popular with the public since it was acquired for the collection last year."
Admission to the permanent collection is free.
Gallery Opening Hours: Monday-Saturday 9.30am- 5.30pm; Thursday 9.30am-8.30pm; Sunday 12pm - 5.30pm.

The answer is.... it depends. With ANY program you choose to use, it will depend on how much time you are able to put into training your dog, how well your dog responds to the training, and how well you are able to read your dog's responses to the training. Dog owners vary in their experience and their abilities, and dogs differ in how they respond to various aspects of training. It is best not to set your training goals based on a time-line and TO set your goals on an outcome or response you want to in your dog.

it is not a time specific video, it goes over basic commands and fundamentals and how to train for them like using large fluffly animals, wooden dowels, paint rollers, and other bumper type things for retrieving to get them used to different items being in their mouth, also covers water entry, throwing marks, the here command, throwing double marks.
it was a very useful video

Why Folks Around the World Do Breakfast Better
Making your own ice cream may sound like a lot of work, but this alternative dessert will be ready as soon as you hit "start." Follow Clean Food author Terry Walters' lead, and throw pecans, almonds, a dash of vanilla, a few sprinkles of cinnamon, and ice into a high-power blender, such as a Vitamix, for an instantaneous — and shockingly creamy — treat.
Summer heat — and extra booze — may make you mistake thirst for hunger, says Ashley Koff, RD. instead of relying on water to keep you hydrated, plan a fiber-filled party menu since these kinds of foods hold on to more water. Assemble a beautiful plate full of fresh-cut farmer's market veggies with seasoned sea salt for dipping, or stuff pureed beans into lettuce "burritos" along with plenty of crunchy, bite-size veggies for a healthy and colorful spread.

Philippines: Meeting people's needs must not fall off the international agenda, urges John Ging
OCHA Operations Director John Ging concluded his first visit to the Philippines on Monday, urging the international community to step up their efforts to help the Government meet the needs of people affected by Typhoon Bopha. The typhoon, which was the deadliest storm anywhere in the world in 2012, hit the southern island of Mindanao killing more than a thousand people and affecting some 6.2 million.
"Despite these challenges, what impresses me the most is the resilience of the survivors of the typhoon," said the OCHA Operations Director after visiting a community that was forced to evacuate their village which was completely destroyed by mudslides and flash floods. "We will do our utmost to ensure that their needs do not fall off the international agenda."

Joe wasn't nearly as concerned about China as he was the US. He sacrificed millions of his own comrades in WWII to defeat the Axis; by the time of the Korean War, he'd have thought nothing about exacting the same price on China to have a kill shot at the US.
My "nuclear winter" scenario had to do more with the effect after the war, when he'd have been President and had his finger on the "launch" button.

Just picked up the only Octo droid I saw at WalMart in Valencia tonight for 17.50. They had Dewbacks for 30 still. Also got a Rex helmet for 15, so I could use Clone Cash.
One of the other WalMarts up there still had dewbacks and ATST's for full price.
I took figures that were put back on the new cards like the POTJ Bespin Guard on the new ESB wave card and informed the manager at my Wal-Mart again.This time I informed a more concerned manager.

Exhibit: Survival in Sarajevo - Friendship in a Time of War
A powerful and inspiring exhibit that chronicles the Jews, Muslims and Christians who provided humanitarian aid and stood against hate during the Bosnian War, 1992-1995
Plus a special panel to honor the Bosnian War refugees who work at the JCC
Opening Reception:
View this extraordinary exhibit and film and hear photographer Edward Serotta's first hand account of covering the conflict for Time Magazine and others.
This event is part of a free program series designed to increase dialogue and understanding between local faith communities, supported by multiple religious organizations across Marin.
In this European War, Jews were not the victims. In this war, Jews, Muslims and Christians joined forces to stand against hate.
The Bosnian-Serb siege of Sarajevo, from spring 1993 until winter 1996, was the longest in modern history. With electricity, water and food supplies cut off and only sporadically supplied, with 11,541 citizens shot by snipers or killed by mortars, Sarajevans had to depend on each other.
In a faded, turn-of-the-century synagogue, a group of Holocaust survivors and their offspring created La Benevolencija, the Jewish humanitarian aid agency. Who worked there? Jews and Muslims, Serbian Orthodox and Catholic Croats--all those who never believed one ethnic group was superior to another.
After all, Jews had lived alongside all their neighbors since they were welcomed in Sarajevo in the 16th century. This is the story of how they paid their neighbors back.

This is poisoning from swallowing or eating a plastic resin hardener.
This is for information only and not for use in the treatment or management of an actual poison exposure. If you have an exposure, you should call your local emergency number (such as 911) or the National Poison Control Center at 1-800-222-1222.
Seek immediate emergency medical help. If the resin is on the skin, wash the area thoroughly for at least 15 minutes. Contact poison control for further information.
Determine the following information:
The National Poison Control Center (1-800-222-1222) can be called from anywhere in the United States. This national hotline number will let you talk to experts in poisoning. They will give you further instructions.
This is a free and confidential service. All local poison control centers in the United States use this national number. You should call if you have any questions about poisoning or poison prevention. It does NOT need to be an emergency. You can call for any reason, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.
Take the container with you to the hospital, if possible.
See National Poison Control Center.
The health care provider will measure and monitor the patient's vital signs, including temperature, pulse, breathing rate, and blood pressure. The patient may receive:
How well a patient does depends on the amount of poison swallowed and how quickly treatment was received. The faster a patient gets medical help, the better the chance for recovery.
Swallowing such poisons can have severe effects on many parts of the body. Extensive damage to the mouth, throat, eyes, lungs, esophagus, nose, and stomach are possible.
The ultimate outcome depends on the extent of this damage. Damage continues to occur to the esophagus and stomach for several weeks after the poison was swallowed, and death may occur as long as a month later. Treatment may require removal of part of the esophagus and stomach.

The Discriminating Lush
To drink often and to drink well: such are the dual pursuits of the discriminating lush, the drinker whose eyes rise toward the top shelf, who eschews Schlitz tallboys and whisky from the well in favor of the sophisticated, the rare, the premium, and the pricey. The unrefined boozer — the barfly, the professional — prizes quantity over quality, makes his medicine from boilermakers and Boone's, fervently and without joy. Not so our discerning imbiber.
And though this drinker favors the high-end and small-batch, there's a decided lack of snobbery. It's not about snottiness — to each his or her very own poison of choice! — it's just about standards. And as we enter the dark season, some lines from the Greek lyric poet Alkaios echo: "Damn the winter cold! Pile up the burning logs/and water the great flagons of red wine;/place feather pillows by your head, and drink./Let us not brood about hard times . . . Drink deeply, drink."
Below, a few suggestions on gifts to intoxicate the sophisticated drinker.
CHEAP NORPRO 399 CHURCH KEY CAN AND BOTTLE OPENER | $3.78 | People disagree about how a bottle opener came to be called a "church key." Some argue it was an act of defiance when Prohibition ended, an old-fashioned fuck-you to the religious organizations that banned boozing in the first place. This model is as basic as you can get: traditional, functional, no needless bells and/or whistles. It's a basic building block in any drinker's life. You don't need to be showy when you're cracking open a bottle of BrewDog's End of History beer ($765), at 55 percent alcohol, with a bottle encased in a taxidermied stoat carcass. No matter what you're opening, this church key'll help unlock the door to God.
KINDA FANCY MIX-AND-MATCH SIX-PACK FROM DOWNEAST BEVERAGE | VARIES | Show the discerning boozer in your life that you're up on beer trends with a sixer of foreign and domestic specialty brews from Downeast beverage. Staff recommendations include the Jaipur India Pale Ale from Thornbridge Brewery ($7.19), whose label invokes "Innovation. Passion. Knowledge." Or the $3.99 Thisted Limfjords Porter/Double Brown Stout, brewed with licorice and emerging with a smoky, well-balanced flavor and smell.
Downeast Beverage | 79 Commercial St, Portland | 207.828.2337 | downeastbeverage.com
DELUXE PEWTER FLASK | $59.95 | Understated and elegant, this lovely specimen — handcrafted by British company Alchemy — is kidney-shaped to slide into your pocket, no problem. According to the company web site, Alchemy "belongs to the time-honoured body of master craftsman, 'The Worshipful Company of Pewterers,' who were granted a Royal Charter in 1474 by King Edward IV for the legal manufacture of pewterware throughout England," so tippling with this flask also means tapping into some pretty serious history as well.

Captain's ReportLooking for a luxury day boat without compromise? Cobalt has an entry with few competitors. Starting with bold design cues and legendary Cobalt quality, the 262 is in a class all by herself. For instance, a radically styled radar arch with integrated, retractable sunshade is available. This new option has become very popular with consumers and adds a wild, futuristic look to the 262. With a centerline length of 26 feet, 8 inches overall and a typical beam of 8 feet 6 inches, the 262 has plenty of room for entertaining your family and friends. Her all-composite construction weighs in at 4,700 pounds, and provides a solid, yet subtle ride. Gasoline stern drive propulsion options are available from either MerCruiser or Volvo Penta, or you can choose the efficiency of diesel power from Yanmar. Because this is a single engine configuration, I strongly suggest opting for drive units that utilize dual, counter-rotating propellers. This feature eliminates torque bias, and makes backing down into your slip a breeze.As you board the 262, you will appreciate the large beam width swim platform and transom walk-thru located on the centerline. Small sun pads flank the walk-thru and conceal self-draining storage compartments beneath. Aft in the cockpit, you will find L-shaped settees to port and starboard. These have generous storage under the cushions, and are accompanied by drink holders. Like all the Cobalts we tested, the upholstery is first rate throughout. In a boat of this caliber though, I expected to see a small wet bar in the cockpit, but this would be at the expense of seating space.Moving forward to the helm and companion seating, we find the dash beautifully covered in leatherette and real Babinga wood inlays. Instrumentation is simple and straightforward, making it easy to read. An Italian steering wheel is comprised of wood and leather and has a tilt column for adjustability. Best of all, the Zero-effort throttle and shifter complete the first class helm. The companion side dash receives the same treatment with leatherette trim and Babinga wood covered glove box. Inside the glove box you'll find the CD stereo system. Neatly camouflaged behind the port side dash is a head. The entire dash and foot rest double as a door, swinging out to reveal a small head and Porta Potti. What a slick idea! Both the seats at the helm are wide and comfortable, except for the flip-up bolsters, which were a bit thin and hard on one's backend. One of the best places to enjoy the ride on the 262 is up front in the bowrider's wrap-around seating. The seating incorporates chaise lounges on each side with concealed storage space under all the cushions. A removable table can be installed to convert the bow seating into a dining area for lunch or cocktails. When not in use, the table neatly stows into a slot under the starboard side chaise lounge. At the front of the bow is a deep anchor locker that is lined with rubber matting and is also self-draining.On the water, the 262 performed flawlessly. Equipped with a Mecruiser 496 Mag producing 375-horse power, this big bowrider got on plane in just over 4 seconds. We got to 30 miles per hour in just under 7 seconds and found acceleration to be good. Top speed was achieved at 50.9 miles per hour turning 4,500 rpm. Most surprising is the 262's fuel economy. With a best cruise speed at 25.6 miles per hour at 2,500 rpm, the 3.2 miles per gallon burn rate provides a range of just over 200 miles. All these numbers mean that Cobalt has produced a very efficient hull design that will keep you smiling, even at the fuel dock.By Captain Ron SvobodaTest Captain

We'll get Albert for our 2b and draft Eiffert at 12, book it...
We'll get Albert for our 2b and draft Eiffert at 12, book it...
This entire draft is hanging on whether Jon Martin can play left tackle next season and keep Tannehill upright and the run game moving.
If the answer to that is yes, we can draft anybody the hell we want in the first two rounds and pick up a decent right tackle for the ZBS later in the draft. There are several.
If the answer to that is no - then we need to trade for Albert and the above applies OR the draft goes out the window somewhat in terms of a typical year and we have to make some serious moves around the place to snag a good LT.
I think we'll trade for Albert. Not because Martin can't play left (I think he could do it personally) but because this is a tough year to get into the top 5 of the draft and be sure you get a tackle AND with the push we're making we've got to be figuring we'll be drafting lower next season AND there isn't likely to be the same salary cap squeeze next year which will produce decent tackles in FA.
So we take Albert, groom Martin for LT but play him on the right and draft a tackle in the mid rounds.
Then do what the hell we want at the top of the draft.
Ever tried. Ever failed. No matter. Try Again. Fail again. Fail better. - S. Beckett
I dont think we will draft Eifert, because i the phins have more high hopes in our young TE than we do here on finheaven. If Eifert is indeed that talented, I would take him and that would allow us to let Keller go if needed. Eric Winston is still waiting for our draft outcome, so we have options.
I remember someone asking Steve Young, more than a few years ago, weather he preferred a pro-bowl WR or a pro-bowl TE. At the time, I was surprised to hear, he preferred the pro-bowl TE, but now I understand why. A pro-bowl TE is probably someone who can both block and receive at a high level. That kind of flexibility would be huge for our offense and Tannehill. If Eifert is that guy, and he is there at #12, I would love to have him even if we are over drafting him a little bit.
Our main problem is not scoring TDs. A 6'6 TE with great hands would fix that quickly.

The game is played on many levels with several ways to win.
You never know what you are getting or what your opponent has been dealt. Where is he and where are the hens?
You discard to the crib to favor you or not help your opponent. Take advantage of the terrain, shadows, foliage etc.
The play is like working the gobbler. You lead, he plays when all the cards are played you may be a couple of points ahead.
You score the hands and the crib and start over again.
In the end one of you gets 121. For the gobbler he lives to play another day. When you get there first it is a trip to the check station, picture taking, then processing into meat.

Position papers: Akron Municipal Court judge
Katarina Cook (incumbent) vs. Jon Oldham
Voters living in the Akron Municipal Court district will vote for one candidate for judge for the term commencing Jan. 1, 2014, in the Nov. 5 General Election. The Akron Municipal Court serves the cities of Akron and Fairlawn; the townships of Bath, Richfield and Springfield; the villages of Lakemore and Richfield; and the part of Mogadore in Summit County. The information provided below was submitted by the candidates, with their responses to our questions printed as submitted.
Katarina Cook (incumbent)
What are the three most important issues facing the court and how would you address them?
"As your Akron Municipal Court judge, I have presided over thousands of cases. I work hard to protect our neighborhoods from violent crime and drugs. I hold offenders accountable and deliver appropriate sentences when necessary. I set high bonds on violent felonies because I consider the safety of the community as my highest priority. My years of experience as a prosecutor, mediator, magistrate and judge have prepared me well for the difficult decisions I am often required to make.
"The three issues which I find to be challenging today are: first, youth without goals, or hope; second, a cycle of violence without interruption; and third, substance abuse that ruins lives.
- "My work as former chair of Akron Bar's Street Law and Mock Trial Committees helps to introduce young people to our legal system in a positive way. I coach a mock trial team at St. Hilary and welcome young people to observe my court and learn about the legal process.
- "In cases where violence is involved, I examine the situation and consider the safety of the victim when delivering an appropriate sentence. Serious offenses deserve serious sentences. In order to stop a cycling of criminal behavior, I continually strive to find more resources and programs the court can utilize.
- "As presiding judge of the OVI Court, I hold repeat offenders accountable with strict monitoring and substance abuse treatment, as they work toward the goal of reclaiming their lives. This court has a high rate of successful completion."
What does a judicial demeanor mean to you and do you think you have it?
"My twenty-two plus years of legal experience includes extensive in-court time conducting hearings and trying cases. As a result of my career as prosecutor, magistrate and judge, I am sensitive to those who have fallen victim to crimes. Along with protecting the constitutional rights of an accused, I am also mindful that victims have a right to be heard as well. Judicial demeanor is the ethical and impartial approach I take to maintain my court.
"As judge, I run an efficient docket. In my Court I treat the litigants and their attorneys with respect, and I listen to both sides of an issue. Having been a law clerk for three judges, been a prosecutor for four years, and having appeared in front of many of the current Common Pleas judges while an attorney, I understand the importance of civility in the courtroom, and how justice can be thwarted when a judge does not treat both parties with fairness.
"I also believe it is necessary to be polite but firm with all attorneys' and individual's behavior in the courtroom. I do not allow verbal abuse between the parties and will deal with those situations accordingly. I continually strive to set an example and uphold the judicial canons and the laws and constitution of this state and country. It is my honor to serve as your judge and I respectfully ask for your vote."
Jon Oldham
What are the three most important issues facing the court and how would you address them?
"Jail Overcrowding.
"Jail overcrowding strains our system and impacts public safety. At the misdemeanor level, judges are running out of resources to use as punishment to deter criminal activity because overcrowded jails make it difficult, if not impossible, to sentence convicted offenders to jail. When this happens, the offenders are often released back into the community. Drug and alcohol addiction, and mental health concerns are major contributors to crime. By strengthening and fully utilizing our nationally recognized specialty courts, we can provide counseling and therapy services to address crime where it begins, reduce recidivism, and save money for our community. Specialty courts cost less money than confinement — both short and long-term.
"Lack of Legal Representation.
"To many people in our Court our unable to pay for lawyers to represent them in civil matters. This can result in questionable judgments being obtained against them that ultimately force them into bankruptcy. To address this growing concern, the Court can (1) actively encourage pro bono services from local lawyers; (2) strengthen the available legal aid programs to provide legal advice; and, (3) work with the law school to use certified legal intern law students to provide supervised representation.
"Outdated Technology.
"Our Court's technology is outdated and needs improvement. Other area courts use advanced technology to file documents, present cases more efficiently, and educate jurors. This is especially important in this age of ever-increasing technology. The Court needs to work with the Clerk of Courts to address this concern and improve our system."
What does a judicial demeanor mean to you and do you think you have it?
"Judicial demeanor is the proper behavior that the public deserves from judges. Judges should be compassionate, fair, impartial, patient, and objective. A judge treats people with dignity and respect, strives for justice, and bases decisions on the merits. An appropriate demeanor may be best understood by what it is not: arrogance, shrillness, insistence on a personal viewpoint, or the use of a trusted office for self-aggrandizement.
"Many who appear in court struggle with serious financial issues, mental illness, or substance abuse. Municipal Court is the 'People's Court' and a judge there will see all of this. A judge can bring empathy and respect without loss of objectivity. It may be difficult to give the troubled a full opportunity to be heard, but that is part of the judicial job description. An intolerant or 'too busy' judge demeans the entire judicial system.
"As a magistrate in two courts, I have learned to balance fairness and sympathy in the large variety of cases I have heard. I have dealt with numerous potentially disruptive parties and situations without losing my focus on the goal of being a good and impartial 'decider.' In addition, the breadth of my experience as a private attorney for more than a decade, my active service in our community, and the patience I learn in raising two daughters has given me the qualities I have listed here. I truly want to help people become more productive citizens in our community.
"I respectfully ask for your vote on November 5th."

Please Help Me Summon Dalaran!
Last night I was the only mage in the raid group and I ended up having a bit of portal fun with my fellow Bananas.
It started out innocently. Someone had just gotten a tier piece and had asked nicely if they could go and turn in the token quickly. I opened a portal for the fellow and Alburet who had just returned to his computer saw me casting a portal and thinking I was trying to create a new food table very helpfully clicked on it and ended up in Dalaran. We all giggled at his silliness and since he was our warlock had to run out to summon him back.
Later, Hold needed repairs and since he was our off-tank we thought it a good idea that he not fight with broken items. To tease Alburet a bit I announce "Please help me summon Dalaran!" as I'm opening the portal.
Aelaan, who had missed Al's earlier disappearing trick, wasn't thinking clearly and also trying to be most helpful came and clicked on my portal and ended up in Dalaran. Poor Aelaan was teased for being so silly. I told him that to be fair the summon worked because he found Dalaran just fine.
At the end of the night Aelaan emoted that he was clicking the portal to summon Dalaran before he went through it. I thought it was funny. I have some goofy people I hang out with!

Your guild sounds like a really fun bunch. We have a rule, Loveth is not allowed to click ANY Portals until the end of the night. Inevitably, he'll click portals to citys and we'll end up having to summon him back. He's notorious for it. He still can't tell the difference between a food portal and a city portal. Silly GL.
- Monday, March 30, 2009
Hehe it was so funny. I felt so silly when I did it coming back, but when Totem did it oh my goodness now that was funny. Helping Summon Dalaran shall go down in Banana's lore. Glad to be a small part of it.

- Description
Panorama from "Hohe Tauern National Park", in Osttirol Austria at 2159m height.
The "Hohe Tauern National Park" is the largest nature reserve of the Alps.
A wild, primeval landscape and a landscape cultivated by mountain farmers.
These are the two faces of the Hohe Tauern National Park. The nature reserve encompasses sweeping, primeval Alpine landscapes, such as glaciers, rock faces and turf, as well as mountain pasture landscapes which have been carefully and painstakingly cultivated for centuries.
The Hohe Tauern National Park was established in 1981 and is therefore Austria's first National Park. During the following decades the National Park, which covers parts of the three provinces of Carinthia, Salzburg and Tyrol, developed into the largest nature reserve in Central Europe, with an area of over 1,834 km2.

The photo was taken with a Canon digital camera. As tripod head, I used the Gigapan Epic 100.

By Adam Gore/LetsGoICC.com
Former ICC football star and Super Bowl champion Duce Staley has been named the new running backs coach for the Philadelphia Eagles after serving as the special teams quality control coach since 2011.
The former National Junior College Athletic Association (NJCAA) All-American played at ICC in 1993 and 1994 before transferring to the University of South Carolina. He was drafted in the third round of the 1997 NFL Draft by the Eagles and was the 2001 Ed Block Courage award recipient, an award selected by the players and given to their teammate that is seen as a role model of inspiration, sportsmanship, and courage.
Staley finished his career with the Pittsburgh Steelers in 2006, where he and the Steelers defeated the Seattle Seahawks 21-10 in Super Bowl XL at Ford Field in Detroit, Michigan.
He ranks fourth on the Eagles all-time rushing list with 4,807 yards and finished his career with 5,785 yards rushing and 24 touchdowns. Staley officially retired as an Eagle in a special halftime ceremony during the Eagles-Giants game on December 9, 2007.

text: I hunted the back of the horse farm property today and managed to tag a gobbler I've been messing with (maybe he's been messing with me). He weighed 19 pounds 15 ounces, had matching 1 & 3 /16ths inch spurs, and a nub of a beard from beard rot. I'll submit the entire story tomorrow.
