When Rod Barnes and his staff took over the Georgia State men's basketball program, there was an immediate attention on keeping the talent home. On Sunday, the Colonial Athletic Association school secured a commitment from James Fields.
The 6-foot-1 point guard Savannah (Ga.) Beach High School visited Atlanta school and decided he saw enough to end his recruitment.
"I just had a certain feeling about it. It felt right," Fields said.
Article Continues Below
Fields, who goes by "Boom", officially visited Marshall last week. He had scheduled trips to Toledo and UNC Wilmington for later in the month. Fields said location was a factor.
"It's going to be nice to have my mom able to see me play. I think that played a big part," Fields said. "I have a lot of people that want to see me play."
Fields is the first high school player to commit to Barnes from the state of Georgia. He's a good one, too. Fields can play both guard positions and comes from one of the top programs in the Peach State.
"I think I'm going to help keep other Georgia players here," Fields said. "(Barnes) said he would be playing me as a guard and not just a point guard. If he needs me to score or control the game, I'll do it."
Fields, the first player to commit to the CAA school in the 2008 class, said he likes the direction that the Georgia State program is headed in.
"I asked a lot of the players there about how it is now and they all said that they are having fun and they want to win more," Fields said. "It's going to be a good time."

WASHINGTON (Reuters) - Lockheed Martin Corp expects to sign a contract with the U.S. government early this summer for an eighth batch of F-35 fighter jets, but the deal is unlikely to match price reductions seen on the last few contracts, the company's top financial officer said Monday.
Chief Financial Officer Bruce Tanner said the company had driven the price of the jets lower by 4 percent to 5 percent in each of the previous three contracts, but savings of that magnitude were unlikely on the next deal, which will be for 43 jets, given the lack of large quantity increases in the order.
"I'm not sure we will get to that level, but I do expect we'll have a reduction from the previous lot on an aircraft-to-aircraft basis," Tanner told Reuters in an interview during the company's annual "media day."
Lockheed submitted a proposal for the eighth batch of F-35 jets in December. The company finalized a contract valued at $7.8 billion in September for 71 more F-35s, including a sixth batch of 36 jets, and a seventh batch of 35 aircraft.
In April, the Pentagon's F-35 program chief, Air Force Lieutenant General Chris Bogdan, said he hoped to sign contracts with both Lockheed and engine maker Pratt & Whitney, a unit of United Technologies Corp, by the end of May.
Orlando Carvalho, executive vice president of Lockheed's aeronautics division, said the two sides were "making progress" and could sign a deal before the end of June, ahead of the jet's international premier at two air shows in Britain in July.
"I think we're closing on a final settlement, but we still have a little ways to go. Let's hope by the end of the month we have it done," he told Reuters.
Lorraine Martin, Lockheed's F-35 program manager, told reporters later that there had been some delays in getting the discussions started with the Pentagon, but the two sides were now "trading really productive offers to get to closure."
F-35 program spokesman Joe DellaVedova declined comment on the timing of a possible contract agreement, or the scope of any likely cost reductions, saying only that negotiations were continuing with both Lockheed and Pratt.
"I think we'll resolve this expeditiously," Martin said.

My computer will freeze up/lock up every seconds at login
Help! My computer that I've had since '09 has been freezing up every few seconds at startup, for example, the start button glows on mouse over and when i click the start menu doesn't come up, then if I move my mouse the windows logo is still glowing, same goes for the notifications triangle. Other items would freeze too, such as the wifi icon in the notification bar and gui items on my running programs.
My computer defragments itself every Wendsday (btw, does it defragment itself if it's logged off?) and I'm afraid of clicking on something in the fear of it locking up on me! It also studders my games (but I don't have a low frame rate) and freezes Steam VERY ofter (although, I think that's just a problem with Steam)

"My child is an angry person."
"When does this anger most show itself?" I ask.
"When he's denied something or when he's disciplined."
"Is he angry at times other than those?"
"No, if we let him do whatever he wants, he's in a decent mood."
"So it's safe to say that this angry child's anger is limited to specific times and places?
"It seems so."
"What does his teacher say?"
"I don't understand it. His teacher doesn't see any of this….She says he's a delight."
"How do you explain the fact that his teacher, who has a fraction of your authority, gets him to behave every day all day without so much as a whiff of defiance?"
"Do you suppose he holds it in all day, and when he gets home, he has to explode?"
"Probably not. I think he knows where the speed limit is twenty and where it's the interstate."
The wife of a grouch meets a woman who regales her with "Your husband is such a joy to work with. He's so pleasant and positive with everyone. Please don't take offense at this, but a lot of the ladies there envy you."
At which wife thinks, "Yeah, well, I envy them." She has to choke back, "What's this guy's last name, and does he look like my wallet picture here?" Not only is she stung at hearing where she sits on her husband's "Be nice to" list, but she can't reconcile the image of the man she knows with that of the one those women know.
How does one reconcile the inconsistencies between home child and school child or between home child and school child or between marital partner and work partner? Well, they don't need to be reconciled. We're talking about human beings here. …Different places promote different conduct. Different places also mean different people.
…Are these distinctions without effect? What does it matter if I'm an angry person or a person who gets angry with certain someones or somethings? Anger is still anger. Yet it does matter for a number of reasons.
One, such distinctions can reassure. Because personality defines who someone is, it is seen as something stable, resisting change or correction. Consequently, being an angry person sounds more serious than being a person who gets angry sometimes. Correcting any life problem begins with describing it correctly. Describing anger as more deep-rooted than it really is makes rectifying it seem more challenging.
Two, distinctions narrow the focus. When counseling a so-called angry child or adult, I must begin with questions—plenty. I need specifics—the who, what, when, and where of the anger's appearance. Just knowing someone is an angry person does me or him little good. The characterization is too wide to be useful. Unless I narrow it, I don't know where to head next.
Three, distinctions present solutions. Suppose I know that my abrasive Uncle Buck brings out my own abrasiveness. I can a) keep a room or two between us at any family gathering, b) resolve to let his opinions float past my ears into space or into someone else's ears, c) keep my wife nearby, to push me away or pinch me if I'm tempted to retort, d) play Legos in the basement with the preschooler until the Buckster falls asleep or goes home.
…What seems a deficit in personal self-control may be my allowing circumstances to push me too hard. I may not have an anger trait so much as a few too many anger states.

Three arrested in overnight I-10 shootings
PHOENIX - Three people are in custody in connection with shootings reported on Interstate 10 early Sunday morning, according to a spokesperson for the Arizona Department of Public Safety. There were no injuries reported.
DPS troopers responded to the first shooting near I-10 and the Broadway curve at about 2:00 a.m. A victim reported seeing a person in a black sedan heading westbound, who allegedly pointed a handgun out the window and fired a shot from the passenger side. With help from the Phoenix Police helicopter, troopers were able to locate the sedan near I-10 and 83rd Avenue. Two people inside the vehicle were apprehended once the vehicle pulled into an apartment complex.
During their investigation, DPS troopers found a victim in a passenger car whose vehicle had been shot near 83rd Avenue, and the victim was stopped in the area of McDowell Road. The round, which was found inside the vehicle, was removed as evidence. DPS has not released the victim's condition.
A third person was detained about 45 minutes later. Police have not released the names of the suspects involved. Right now troopers say there is no link between the incident overnight and the shootings that occured between August 22 and September 10.

Over a thousand well-wishers including Prime Minister David Cameron gathered at a military funeral on Friday for the British soldier who was hacked to death in broad daylight on a street in Woolwich, southeast London, two months ago.
The murder of 25-year-old Lee Rigby made international headlines in May and heightened community tensions in parts of Britain. Two men will stand trial in November.
Rigby's son Jack, 2, wore a T-shirt bearing the words "My daddy, my hero" on the back.
"He shouldn't have died where he died," said Stacey Walsh, 29, a volunteer support worker, who clutched a single rose as Rigby's coffin was carried through his battalion's hometown of Bury in northern England on Thursday.
"He served twice in Afghanistan, and he died on British soil, on his homeland," she said, visibly upset.

Updated Oct 7: Slides from Mercer's 2011 employee survey (see Slide 12 and 14 for discussion on engagement of women in the workplace)
I attended a Mercer presentation today on their latest findings on APAC (Asia Pacific) health and benefits survey update. I was thinking to myself prior to the meeting if there was anything new to be shared…
In a typical presentation, the consultants showed a lot of data and charts. And the survey findings weren't too surprising.
Cost Factors and Engagement
Companies are looking to reduce over benefits costs as a percentage of payroll expenditures . Yet, employers know that health and welfare are critical elements to talent attraction & retention and employee productivity. While survey results show 42% of respondents would consider leaving their current employer yet, 60% are satisfied with their jobs and the same rate felt a sense of accomplishment. Although 56% of Gen Y would consider leaving for another company.
The Women Factor
In one category that was startling, the women population was the least satisfied about their job. And yet, they showed a higher rate to staying with the current employer. They didn't discuss too much of the underlying factors though.
What do you think?
- Is gender equity an issue? Glass ceiling?
- Could the situation be bad, but not "bad" enough to warrant leaving?
- Might there be greener pastures? Or are other workplaces not better off?
- The job search and interview process is not worth the trouble…
- What can companies do to change the status quo?
Let me know your thoughts in the comments section below.

It's been a busy day. Busy days are more difficult after really bad nights like last night. However, we survived our full day of therapy. However, Trenton's day did not stop after therapy. He had a doctor appointment for a rash. It turned out he has a yeast infection and an ear infection. As always, it makes my stomach turn...how long has he had an ear infection and I didn't know?!?!?!? I can't even begin to describe how difficult it is to try to figure out what is wrong every minute of your child's life when they can't communicate. A good friend of mine came and spent some time with me on Monday. Her eyes were open to what life is like all day with two boys on the spectrum. Right before she left, she shook her head and asked, "How do you do this everyday?"
Anyway, all of this meant we had to go to the hospital for a shot. Trenton already cried for 50 minutes straight at the doctor office. ( Watching an almost 4 year old stand and cry for that long is very disheartening.) It was brutal. He cried for so long he had red blotches all over his face. Sadly, it didn't stop at the doctor office because we had to go to the hospital. To say the least, he did a lot of crying there too. In spite of that, we had the best nurse ever. Seriously! Right before they were ready to give Trenton his shot, the lady giving the shot asked very politely, "Am I going to need a lot of people to hold him down?"
I said with a sigh, "Normally, everyone makes me hold him and someone else helps me while the other person does the shot or exam."
At the same time I said this, a nurse walked in and greeted me with the most heartwarming smile I had received in a long time.
"Oh no." She says. "You are not holding your own child down. He needs you to be his comfort when it is done. I am not going to let you help. I will hold him down, I am strong enough."
I just smiled and teared up.
The nurses got to it and gave him his shot. Trenton ran to me for comfort. I looked at the nurse with tears in my eyes and said, "No one has ever been that nice to us. Everyone is afraid of him so they have me hold him down with assistance from others. We have been in and out of hospitals from here to Saint Louis and no one has ever been that nice to us.'
The nurse was totally shocked when I told her this. In fact I made her cry.
Sadly, it is true. Every time I have just wanted to be his comfort when it was over and not the person holding him down with the most force. This nurse, whom ever she was, was the nicest anyone has ever treated me and most importantly, Trenton.
The mirror can normally make him stop crying for awhile....that didn't even work today.
He cried in front of it while holding his Kindle.
Around 9:30 this evening it was an ugly scene....two boys with autism having tantrums and both wanting Mommy. Needless to say, I needed help.....Andrew is sleeping at Nanas again tonight.

I am making about 40 invitations for a baby shower and had planned to emboss the "You're Invited" stamp on the front. I have embossed before, on my save the dates and on my bridal shower thank you's, and have never had this problem. I am using STAMPENDOUS! PEARLustre Embossing Powder in Sapphire Opaque and it is tinting the entire front of the white invitation blue, where ever the powder touches the paper. It won't rub off with a paper towel, but I can erase it with just a regular pencil eraser. However, it's a pain in the butt to erase in between the all the letters on all 40 invitations and even still, it doesn't look 100%.
Does anyone have any idea as to why this is happening and how I can prevent it? Thanks!

More from the mind of Bertie Wooster:
"If there's one thing I like it's a quiet life. I'm not one of those fellows who get all restless and depressed if things aren't happening to them all the time. You can't make it too placid for me. Give me regular meals, a good show with decent music every now and then, and one or two pals to totter round with, and I ask no more."
"It was one of those things that want doing quickly or not at all. I shut my eyes and pushed. Something seemed to give. There was a scrambling sound, a kind of yelp, a scream in the offing, and a splash. And so the long day wore on, so to speak."
This collage hasn't moved much since the first stop, and I'm getting impatient—not with the collage of course.
So now it's moving, but looking much worse.
Later the same day. Even worse.

Jasmine Jackson from Kinston High School in Lenoir County is headed to the national Poetry out Loud finals in Washington, D.C. next week, May 3 to 4.
Jackson, a 10th grader, will join 53 high school students from across the country, who will gather to match their skills in reciting classic and contemporary poetry in the 2016 National Semifinals of Poetry Out Loud: National Recitation Contest.
This is an annual recitation contest sponsored by the National Endowment for the Arts (NEA) and the Poetry Foundation, and administered by the North Carolina Arts Council, an agency of the Department of Natural & Cultural Resources.
Jackson impressed the judges in the North Carolina competition, held in March, with her lively recitations of the poems: Obedience, or the Lying Tale, by Jennifer Chang, The Spider and the Fly, by Mary Howitt and Do Not Go Gentle into That Good Night, by Dylan Thomas.
The national competition takes place at Lisner Auditorium at The George Washington University p.m. Tuesday, May 3. Nine finalists will proceed to the finals on Wednesday, May 4, where they will vie for the title of National Poetry Out Loud Champion and a $20,000 award.
The top finalists and their schools will receive $50,000 in awards. The semifinals and finals will be webcast live with viewing parties around the country.
Jackson will be the 12th student to compete on from 9 a.m. to noon on Tuesday, May 3. The NEA will offer a closed captioned, one-time-only webcast at www.arts.gov to view the competition on both days.
The host for the program is Elizabeth Acevedo, award-winning poet. Guest judges include Alice Quinn, executive director of the Poetry Society of America; authors Jacqueline Woodson and Virgil Suárez; playwright and poetry slam champion José Antonio Vadi; and actor Chris Sarandon. The featured performer is hip-hop artist and multi-instrumentalist Christylez Bacon.
The Poetry Out Loud Semifinals and National Finals are free and open to the public; no tickets or reservations are required. Both events will offer ASL interpretation. For more information call (202) 682-5606 or visit www.arts.gov.

ESTP is one of the sixteen personality types as classified by the Myers-Briggs Type Indicator or MBTI. ESTP is an acronym for extraversion, sensing, thinking and perceiving.
E is for Extraversion
People with ESTP personality are outgoing. They rejoice their associations or camaraderie with others and would often be more interested in interactions with others than keeping to oneself. They like to be among people and they love to socialize.
S is for Sensing
A person with ESTP personality will be sensible or in other words, pragmatic. He or she will be drawn more by what is tangible or concrete than what is abstract or intangible.
T is for Thinking
The 'T' is thinking and that makes such a personality very objective. People with this personality will always give priority to facts, logic, rational or objective assessment. They would not focus on sentiments, emotions, personal preferences or biases.
P is for Perception
A person with ESTP personality will allow perceptions to prevail and would delay inferential analysis. They would not judge a situation or a person objectively or factually and would rather have their perception dictate the path forward.
This is a unique personality type because of the contradicting traits of thinking and perceiving. Such people will always have a tussle of choosing between what they think and perceive. It is rare that thinking and perceiving are exactly the same.
Some of the most popular people with ESTP personality type are Jack Nicholson, Ernest Hemingway, Eddie Murphy, Bruce Willis, Madonna, James Buchanan and Michael J. Fox.
ESTP Characteristics
People with ESTP characteristics are bold, practical and rational. They would always see logic or look for the rationale in arguments and in everything around them. They will have a practical approach of assessing everything. They would also be perceptive at the same time but they would not allow perception to remain unsubstantiated. This is why such people make great entrepreneurs. They are also bold. Such people will come up with bold ideas and will want to push the traditional boundaries. An original approach to most things in life and direct communication are two very desirable ESTP characteristics.
While people with ESTP personality are sociable, they may be insensitive in some cases. They may not always comprehend emotions well. They can be impatient, prone to take risks, their approach may be unstructured in most cases and might not always see the larger implication of what they do.

A SHOP owner was blinded for a time after a man sprayed deodorant into his face.
The shop proprietor had asked Austin Wright to leave because he had been drinking and was staggering about in danger of damaging the computers.
Wright, unemployed, 20, of Gynn Avenue, North Shore, pleaded guilty to assaulting the businessman.
He was sentenced to do 100 hours unpaid work for the community and ordered to pay his victim £50 compensation plus £50 costs by Blackpool magistrates.
Tracy Yates, prosecuting, said Wright, who knew the victim, went into the shop on King Street, Blackpool, on August 19 about 9pm.
Wright was drunk and staggering about so he was asked to go.
Wright got a canister out of his pocket and sprayed it into the owner's face.
The prosecutor said: "The victim lost his sight for a short time.
"He washed his face to try and get rid of the spray."
Steven Townley, defending, told magistrates: "He says he was confronted by the owner and forced out.
"The owner had other friends present and Wright felt threatened.
"He had deodorant with him which he sprayed at the complainant when he came towards him."

How you can use leverage to increase your sponsorship value
By Kim Harrison,
Consultant, Author and Principal of www.cuttingedgepr.com
The dollar amount a sponsor gives to an event is only the starting point. Usually a sponsor will spend an amount over and above the sponsorship fee to maximize the return on their investment in the sponsorship property. This is called "leverage." Widely accepted practice is for a sponsor to spend at least the equivalent value of their sponsorship fee in their own promotional activity relating to the sponsored event.
Some people even advocate spending two or three times the fee in promotional activity in order to maximize the return on the sponsorship investment. Although this expenditure is not the sponsee's responsibility, astute sponsees (sponsorship recipients) certainly encourage it. The sponsor's promotional activity would help the event as well as the sponsor.
Yet a 2005 IEG survey of 200 sponsorship decision makers showed that they spend surprisingly little on leverage. Around 30% of sponsors spent less than $1 for every dollar they paid in the sponsorship fee, 41% paid dollar for dollar, 14% paid $2 to $1, and only 12% paid around $3 to $1. Those who spend less than dollar-for-dollar in promotional efforts relating to the sponsorship are heading for inevitable disappointment.
Sponsorship is a great integrating mechanism for a sponsor. It can be used to improve the results obtained from the sponsor's other marketing activities. A good sponsorship can be used to create more excitement for existing activities such as advertising, merchandising, product packaging, trade and retail promotions, loyalty programs, employee involvement and Web-based promotions.
If you are seeking sponsorship, you can give thought to maximizing the return for the sponsor when you are researching what the sponsor normally does to promote a sponsorship, and you can discuss it more fully during negotiations leading up to a signed agreement.
Astute sponsees keep around 10-15% of the sponsorship fee on hand to spend on activities to help the sponsor leverage the benefits from their commitment. Quite often this amount can be the 'icing on the cake' to make the sponsor feel they have a switched-on sponsee who really wants to help them to maximize the value of their sponsorship investment.
You should always ask the sponsor representatives to think of the ways the sponsorship can be used to extend their current marketing and public relations activities. If the representatives are slow to realize the ways in which the sponsorship can be leveraged, ask to meet people from the sponsor's various operational divisions and talk to them about ways you could use the sponsorship to help them meet their objectives, especially if they are involved in PR or marketing.
You can summarize the sponsorship arrangement for them including the target audiences, the sponsor benefits and some ideas on how they could use the sponsorship to assist them in their own areas. Outline case studies of leveraging in action. As the 'early adopters' within the sponsor organization start to respond to your ideas, you can use these as examples to sell the concept of leveraging to others.
You can consider getting some of your sponsors together with each other to cross-promote their products or services in relation to your event. For instance, you might suggest to a tennis racquet manufacturer that they team with a sports bag manufacturer or tennis shoe manufacturer who also sponsor your tennis event. You can do this on a smaller scale if you are running a smaller event. A joint promotion would benefit everyone (especially your event!).Internal promotions to employees and shareholders are another possibility. You could engage in merchandising activities, incentive programs, volunteer programs, contests, family days, celebrity appearances etc.

Information, Systems and Information Systems : Making Sense of the Field Hardback
by Peter Checkland, Sue Holwell
Information, Systems and Information Systems making sense of the field Peter Checkland and Sue Holwell Lancaster University, UK Science-based technology helps to shape our lives, and no technology is more powerful in this respect than that associated with information.
But the emerging linked fields of information systems and information technology are still in a very confused state.
There is a torrent of technical developments but the concepts which bring structure to the field and make sense of it lag behind.
This book seeks to dispel that confusion, and aims to make sense of IS and IT as a whole.
Conventional theory bears little relation to the experience most people have with computer-based systems in organizations.
Based on real-world experiences in both the private and public sectors, this book from Peter Checkland and Sue Holwell tackles the subject afresh.
Information, Systems and Information Systems provides a practice-based approach to the thinking needed to underpin provision of information support in organizations.
Starting from fundamentals, the book develops a coherent account of the field.
The book is thus a work of conceptual cleansing. It presents a well-argued and tested account of IS and IT which is both holistic and coherent.
The sense-making models which emerge can encompass any particular assumptions about the nature of organizational reality and management, whether 'hard' functionalist or 'soft' interpretive ones, though the authors' sympathies are with the latter.

Deslagging agent (covering agent) is made by certain particle size perlite ore after special processing, to sprinkle in the fresh-baked steel (iron) water surface. Then the perlite volume is rapidly expanded of 4-30 times with slag-off, insulation work, etc. So we call it cleaner agent. It replaces straw ash or asbestos plaster as molten iron cover, cleaner insulation material in the foundry industry and opened new areas of perlite application.
Product advantage:
Insulation performance is good, in general, can reduce 20 Percent -30 Percent of molten iron cooling rate.
Good residue collection performance, easy slag-off, good for hot metal purification.
Better to globule stable, weaken magnesium light,improve the globule effect.
Reduce environmental pollution, improve working conditions.
Good economic results, can reduce 30 Percent cost.
Easy to use, it is better for promotion of products.
Operation mode
Remove most clinker on molten iron ladle:sprinkle clearner agents of 0.2 Percent molten iron on liquid,then use slag rake to flip and pick cinder.
Cover: Slag-free liquid metal is by 0.3 Percent slag-off agent of heat collected salg,scattered on liquid to be formed 40mm of heat-insulation layer, and then pouring molten iron.For the ball iron,slag-off out of iron should should be second
Nodulizer coverage:use perlite clearner agents of 0.2 Percent molten iron covering on nodulizer,so can instead of ferrosilicon to delay and weaken balling reaction.If we use the excessive,resulting balling non-eruption and we take an iron bar to poke the balling to erupt.

All-Star Designers: Kim Radovich of Huntington Bay
After visiting an endless number of designer show houses and poring over portfolios, Newsday has pulled together 11 designers, including one husband-and-wife team, who bring beauty and drama to Long Island's homes. We've taken a peek at what they've been up to recently and learned a little more about what makes each of them stand out from the pack.
This week, we chat with Kim Radovich of Kim E. Courtney Interiors, which is based in Huntington Bay.
What is the first question you ask a client?
"Who are you?" Once I know my clients, I can create a home that will reflect who they are.
What is your favorite DIY tip?
Vintage wrought iron furniture and a can of Rustoleum.
What design trend are you so over?
Midcentury modern meets Restoration Hardware. Everything looks fabulously predictable.
What is your best recommendation for home furnishing shopping on Long Island?
Kravet, Country Carpet, Robert Allen, Stark and Duralee.
What is the cheapest find that you have furnished your house with?
My antique piano bench. I bought it for a few bucks at a church bazaar in Hudson, New York, and with a quick upholstery change, voilà! A prized possession.
What is one piece in your own home that you couldn't live without?
My mahogany and metal dessert trolley from the original Garden City Hotel.
Which project are you most proud of?
The meditation room and media library I designed for the Ronald McDonald House of Long Island in New Hyde Park. I was able to use everything I've learned from my experience doing commercial work in tandem with my understandings of feng shui to create well-designed, soothing spiritual sanctuaries for families living in crisis.
Name a book that would absolutely have to be in your library.
"The Velveteen Rabbit" -- required reading for anyone who wants to be authentic.
What is your favorite song or music to decorate to?
I love the standards -- Billie Holiday, Sinatra, Ella.
Do you have a go-to fabric supplier?
I do like to use fabric from all of the fabric houses. I have always been a big fan of Kravet fabrics. Robert Allen | Beacon Hill offers an amazing selection of stunning fabrics. We use a lot of Clarke & Clarke from Duralee lately for the youth and teen rooms. JAB is fab, too.

Vail Daily Defends Low-Fat Honor of Michelle Obama's Braised Ancho-Chile Short Rib Dinner
Filed Under Health Care, Politics | 15 Comments
A lot of people have trouble understanding why some Americans who are being lectured on health and told why they should skip vacations make a fuss when those issuing the decrees violate them constantly. I often note the "for thee but not for me" hypocrisy too.
However, I didn't say a word when Drudge linked to the fat content of short ribs, the meal that Michelle Obama reportedly ordered while on vacation with the kids in Vail — although it was tempting. Others, Rush Limbaugh for example, did say something.
But at the Vail Daily, somebody is defending Michelle's low-cal honor:
VAIL, Colorado – Some conservative bloggers and talk-show hosts act like the short rib in Michelle Obama's dinner entree was, like Adam's, extracted from them personally.
The first lady, in Vail with her daughters and some friends for the Presidents Day weekend, dined at Restaurant Kelly Liken in Vail Village Saturday night, enjoying a pickled pumpkin salad with arugula and a braised ancho-chile short rib with hominy wild mushrooms and sauteed kale.
So, of course, some people are taking the short view of the short rib.
A braised short rib is a relatively lean cut of beef, braised with most of the fat cooked off. The 5-ounce serving runs about 600 calories, Liken said — a far cry from the 1,500 calories and 141 grams of fat it's accused of.
They're not very lean according to this site.
But… according to that story, a day of skiiing can burn 6,000 calories, so no matter how high in fat and "pounding at your heart with the fist of God" cholesterol-laden the meal was, FLOTUS has got this meal burned off already, so back off wingnuts!

"A skier will burn off about 6,000 calories during the course of a day"
Ok I'm going to take exception to that. Any of you spend time on a treadmill? Well 'I' have and at 4.0 MPH and 1% Incline it takes me every BIT of half an hour to 'burn' 249.8 Calories!
Only 5,750.2 to GO! Feel the burn. We've all heard that just being exposed to bitter cold will burn calories even if you're just standing in it but this is ridiculous. Minus time spent in lift lines, hot chocolate runs, bathroom, 'lunch' and practicing lip pursing in the mirror and that 'day' now exists of (2) bunny-slope runs.
Nice spin.

That "6000 calories a day" is from the same story… I included it as a way to insinuate that the author's tendancy to exaggerate may also extend to the fat content estimate of the ribs.

"may also extend to the fat content estimate"
Ya' think? ( Midwesterners, so modest! )
Roit! 'If' you're an Olympic-caliber skier ( IN competition ) you 'might' burn that many calories. At even -half- that rate of metabolic burn there'd be no need for Zumba infomercials, Ab Lounger or PX-90 and Christopher Lee could have let his BowFlex go in the divorce settlement.
My God, 6k calories a day. People would be ripping the sash off the drapes and using wooden barrel staves to 'ski' on.

Moochelle can stuff her pie hole with all the crap she wants – I am more offended that the first mooch is on vacation AGAIN!!! With $5 gas looming on the horizon I may only get up north once or twice this summer while she burns tons of global warming flying around on vacations that her husband says we have to forgo for our "shared sacrifice".
And I see where the rats are running again. Indiana democrats just fled their state to avoid a vote on union concessions.
Just remember libs – in the words of Kurt Russell from Tombstone – "You tell em I'm comin' and hell is comin' with me!" That's right libs – hell hath no fury like a screwed and angry tax payer.

Two face-plant pics; one says, "The snack pack was still intact", and the other, an officially awarded pin – "Some one had a yard sale after the first run"…Too funny !!
Honestly, I don`t care how much honest money anyone makes or what they spend it on, as long as they are taking care of their responsibilities ! The first family is living large on our dime and our time and insulting us to our faces the whole time……THAT does bother me !

Now…who went with her on this trip? Was the whole town closed down for her vacation? And did we pay for them? Did EVERYONE get ribs?
And nannykins…I LOVED your Kurt Russell quote! right…
Great motto!…let's take it!
As for calories, I lose more pounds lying in bed all day, then if I exercise, do lawn work, ski, bike, swim…you name it.
Michelle should stay in bed and as Marshall suggests: "purse her lips"
…push her lips, suck her lips, smack her lips…paint her lips…matters not…it would saves us billions.

I remember an "abundant" comedian (that`s funny fat guy for those of you in Rio Linda, btw) who hated exercise with such a passion, the hardest thing he did was holding himself back to resist being sucked down the bathtub drain !

"As for calories, I lose more pounds lying in bed all day, then if I exercise, do lawn work, ski, bike, swim…you name it"
Sister ain't THAT the truth. When first I endeavored to do more than get sucked down the bath drain I thought I was making 'real' progress! As in I no longer get winded going up a flight of stairs and my waist-size has "stabilized".
From there ( it's all uphill ) You may not see any 'visible' progress for months.
Two quick questions for The Panel. Any chance FLOTUS is a Binge/Purge eater? And is there ANY lifestyle prdt. Valerie Bertinelli won't peddle?

If FLOTUS is a B/P eater, she just started and isn`t exhibiting any obvious signs (yet); as for VB, there is a line somewhere she wont cross !

any obvious signs (yet);
True enough, not so's ya' could tell? But that doesn't mean she isn't! To think we have less than two years to figure out her fatal flaw, I mean other than the obvious.
I've always kind of liked Val B., Mrs. Will has almost identical checkbones and full chin. Only Filipina. ( I kid her about "Have 'you' talked to Jenny Craig?" all_the_time! ) No laughs to report as of yet.

"No laughs….yet." YOU are gonna be back in the dog house buddy !
I`ve always thought Valerie is cute and a fairly good actress, regardless of her weight, but the weight loss made her more lovely !
The only weight-loss program I`ve seen that I would never recommend is the Physicians W/L Program which requires such all encompassing modification of lifestyles of everyone around the patient, it`s doomed to fail ! Of the several women I`ve known who`ve spent the $thousands on the prog. and special foods, 100% have lost the preverbial ton and immediately packed it back on ! The prog. is unrealistic at it`s very foundation !

In later years I think she owned up to having affairs ( drugs ) etc. What do you expect when you marry a Rockstar and are forced ( by your upbringing ) to pretend you "have a normal life"?
Through it all, I think she was "a good kid" and I never grudge anyone their successes. Lord knows we all have enough failures.

It is not unusual that the days following the launch of a new World Cup or Olympics log sees social media become a playground of ridicule. The unveiling of Brazil's green and yellow World Cup logo left in its wake a Twitter feed replete with the hashtag #facepalm, an inference to the hand-like yellow cartoon which snaked around the green trophy to rest atop it.
Yesterday marked the first public outing of the logo for Russia's World Cup in 2018, and again a torrent of mockery was not far away. From comparisons to mushrooms to aliens in space, the #2018worldcup trending hashtag on Twitter has seen the new logo both lauded and laughed at. Here's our list of some of the best (and worst) tweets out there.

Department of Dramatic Theatre
Puppet Conference of Three Layers Project
Kecskemét, at 5 pm on 11th October, 2016.
The last dissemination conference of the puppet working group of the 3 Layers Project will be held in Kecskemét, at 5 pm on 11th October, 2016. The event is adjusted to the Zero-Day of the 13th Meeting of Hungarian Puppet Theatres organised in the studio of the Ciróka Puppet Theatre. The aim of this conference is to provide a possibility for the four partner universities of the puppetry working group to present their joint 4 semesters training program to the Hungarian puppet theatre practitioners.
The representatives of the foreign universities are Wieslaw Czolpinski, Marta Rau and Paulina Matusiak from the Bialystok Academy, Poland, Michal Somos and Marek Becka from DAMU, Czech Republic, Ida Hledikova, Barbora Zamisková and Marika Kecskesova from VSMU, Slovakia. The leaders of the working group representing the puppet department of Hungarian Academy of Theatre and Film are Csató Kata and Ellinger Edina.
Beside talking about their scheduled Joint Master Programs, the speakers of the conference will give a short presentation of the special puppet artists' curriculum courses of their own institution. The organisers provide an opportunity for the representatives of Hungarian puppet experts to raise questions after listening to the different presentations, and the dissemination conference can transform to an international discourse of professional puppet practitioners.

Technology is becoming more and more important in the classroom, but not every school can afford all the things they want, and some middle class schools feel they're being overlooked.
"Today's graduate has to be technology proficient," said Darlene Simmons, the Principal at Northwood High School.
Many of the schools in Caddo Parish with the most technology are from the poorest parts of the district because of Title 1 money from the federal government.
"Many of these children come from homes that don't have an opportunity to get technology,"said Janis Parker, the Caddo Parish Schools Director of Title 1.
This school year, Caddo Parish got $22-million through the Title 1 program, and about 2/3 Caddo schools benefited from it. Parker says the district divides the funds depending on the percentage of students at each school on free and reduced lunch. This year, schools with 67.7% of students on free and reduced lunch got some of that money. Title 1 aims to give students in low income areas an equal chance at a quality education. Many used a portion of it for technology.
At Donnie Bickham Middle School, every student spends time working with iPads, laptops, and desktops. You name it, they've probably been exposed to it.
"It's a fun way to learn our division and multiplication," said DBMS student Katie Graham.
The school paid for most of its technology with Title 1 money over the last few years.
"In a year where you receive Title 1 money, it's like Christmas," said DBMS Principal Shannon Wells.
This year they won't be able to buy nearly as much technology because they didn't qualify for any of the federal funds.
"There's a huge difference because you basically make just enough money to maintain what you have," said Wells.
Just down the street, Northwood High School hasn't gotten any Title 1 funds in recent memory. Because they don't have the funding for technology, the same students that use iPads on a weekly basis at Donnie Bickham Middle School barely ever get into a normal computer lab in high school.
The principal at Northwood High School says her school is stuck in the middle because it's not poor enough to get federal funds, but not rich enough for parents to just write a large check for technology.
With the state End of Course testing now online, she worries it will affect her students grades and the schools overall ranking. She compares it to taking your drivers test after only driving a simulator, and never getting behind the wheel of a real car until the day of the test.
"If the text is not right there in front of them, and they haven't practiced that way, then their performance on the assessment isn't the same."
It's not just a problem in Caddo Parish. The principal at Sun City Elementary in Bossier Parish says her school is the same boat after voters there did not approve a bond for technology.
Schools lacking in technology said they felt it could hurt their test scores. KSLA News 12 took a look at the state grades for the schools in Caddo and Bossier that do receive Title 1 funding versus the schools that do not. On average, the non-Title 1 schools still performed better.
To see which schools get Title 1 funds and their scores in Bossier Parish, click here.

Regardless of how much money your school gets to spend on technology, Wells has a suggestion to make it count. He says pick one subject that every student has to take, and get a class set instead of trying to get 1 iPad or 1 computer for each classroom.
"We know every kid that attends this school goes through a science class, so every kid will be exposed to that technology," said Wells.
He hopes his experience can help other schools because with limited funds and ever evolving technology, it's a problem that won't go away any time soon.

I believe you should have more carefuly read messages Oracle provided during installation process, instead of clicking <Next> without paying necessary attention.
Its default name and SID are "XE" (and would be "ORCL" if it was Enterprise Edition).
Database can be renamed; check, for example, this page.

About our network
Network prices
ActewAGL's schedule of electricity network charges provides prices and rules that apply:
These prices are valid from 1 July 2017. Accounts issued on or after this date will be charged on a pro-rata basis.
ActewAGL's Gas network schedule of prices 2017-18 applies to the ACT, Queanbeyan and Palerang gas distribution network. These prices are approved by the AER and are in effect 1 July 2017.
The schedule should be read in conjunction with the Access Arrangement. A new Access Arrangement has been submitted to apply from 1 July 2016. Details of this review can be found on the ActewAGL Distribution's consumer engagement page of this website and on the AER's website.
All charges are exclusive of GST.
How much does it cost to connect or alter a connection?
We do not charge for a basic connection service under our model standing offer.
For other new connection and connection alteration services, the connection charge (if any) is generally determined based on the costs required to connect the site or alter the existing service, and the expected future revenue from the new connection or the alteration. These costs vary from property to property. Depending on the service offered to you, the costs include connection to the main or of a mains extension, the service pipe work, and the supply and installation of a meter set including the pressure regulator. It may also include the excavation and reinstatement of public foot paths and roads as well as any statutory notification required including traffic control.
Please note: If a service-laying contractor turns up at a site to perform a service, including a basic connection, but finds the site conditions differ from what was described in the application, they will inform us before carrying out the work. We will then make a new connection offer, and won't proceed with the connection or alteration until that's been accepted.
What about supply service charges?
We're distributors – generally, we don't issue bills to customers. Those come from the retailers. We do bill retailers for transporting gas to your premises, and you can view our charges for our
gas transportation services to retailers (known as reference services) - including the charges to disconnect and reconnect a premise in the pricing schedules listed on this page.

Kids Bored? Whack a Geode!
My 6 year-old daughter is obsessed with rocks. I find rocks in her pockets, in her little purses, in jars on her desk, in her nightstand drawer, and once, even in her bed! She even likes to look at and read books about rocks. I list her favorites below.
We got started on geodes when one of her school book fair books came with a small, uncracked geode. She brought it to school on her "Sharing Day" and cracked it in front of her class, a performance which was, apparently, a big hit with her classmates.
In case you have never encountered one, a geode is a very unimpressive looking rock on the outside, as you can see here:
Geodes form in porous rocks such as limestone or lava. If a hollow cavity exists in the rock, water containing dissolved minerals can seep in through the rock's pores and crystallize on the inside walls of the cavity. If the crystals do not completely fill the cavity, then a geode is formed. The type of minerals in the water determine what type of crystals form inside the geode.
Geodes are a fun surprise of nature. You can't know what you will find on the inside of a geode until you break it open!
During our trip to Phoenix we visited the Arizona Science Center. My daughter was very excited to find a large unopened geode in the gift shop. Here it is in its package:
The instructions said to keep it in its bag and bash it with a hammer. Here is my mini-geologist giving it a whack:
Well, it took a lot of banging and I was the one who had to deliver the final, fatal blow. I am not sure we centered our hammering too well (apparently it works MUCH better if you use a chisel first to score a line around the "equator" of the geode – see here for good instructions), but the crystalline interior is clearly visible:
Here is a close up of the surprise contents of our geode in the sunlight. Looks like lots of quartz and chalcedony:
You can find geodes in many science and museum stores, or order small and large geodes online at stores such as The Geode Gallery, The Desert USA Store or Mama's Minerals.
My 6 year-old daughter's favorite rock books:
Some good DK Publishing books for older children (9-12):
If you get REALLY into this geode-thing, here is a fascinating-sounding book all about geodes (written for adults, but mini-geologists might enjoy the photos):
2 Responses to "Kids Bored? Whack a Geode!"
oh, i LOVE rocks! i bought some really lovely rocks (and a fossil, a little trilobite) when we were on our honeymoon in NM. and–a geode! i didn't get to break it open myself though, i never saw that before. that is, like, the coolest thing ever!
when i was about 7 i went through a rock-smashing phase, fascinated that ordinary smooth-surfaced rocks often had lovely, shiny sparkly surfaces inside (none of them were geodes, though, lol)…what an amazing project!
[…] In case anyone is interested, here's another fun rock idea that we once did: cracking open a geode! […]

Good work I like how its basic GUI not too big not too glossy
Good job.
I'm back.
i dont like big fancy GUI's so i always use simple ones like this the only effects i ever use (not in this project) is a glass effect that only works if you have vista or win 7 because it uses aero
Good job, always remember to give credits.
I just thought of this but i have an idea do you guys like the idea of on the updater when it asks if you want to download the new version it also tells you all the new features?
Im making a tool also.It's on my old site that i made but now i'm updating it with a better skin.I'll post it up later.
the thing that tells you the features was very easy to add with my update code.

Is anyone able to identify the make of this wood burner please.
Dunno, but it looks interesting. I'm curious to see the inside too. Looks like it might need firebrick. Is there a baffle at the top?
Is there an identifying plate on the back?
Thanks begreen for your reply. I now realise I posted this in the pre 1988 section by mistake. There are no identification plates and it does need some fire bricks, there is a baffle and damper on the outlet. I did some googling yesterday and I think it is a BD & Co stove, although there are a lot of makers using similar features. It is well made with riddling grate, set of optional solid doors and a spark guard.
Riddling grate? If so, this sounds like a coal stove though it doesn't look like one. It does resemble the Viceroy multi-fuel stove, now that you mention it.

Well, Secretary of Energy Steven Chu told the truth before a House appropriations committee earlier this week.
Advertisement - story continues below
During an exchange with Rep. Alan Nunnelee (R-MS), Chu was asked: "But is the overall goal to get our price" of gasoline down, asked Nunnelee. "No, the overall goal is to decrease our dependency on oil, to build and strengthen our economy," Chu replied.

Chu told The Wall Street Journal that energy prices were the lynchpin to an energy overhaul. "Somehow we have to figure out how to boost the price of gasoline to the levels in Europe."
