Prediction: German Bundesliga / Bayern Munchen VS Augsburg
Bayern Munchen VS Augsburg Head to Head | Statistics| Odds
Mighty Bayern Munich face off to little Augsburg in a Germany Bundesliga game that could seal relegation for the side from South West Bavaria.
Bayern Munich have the league wrapped up after a phenomenal season. Unbeaten in the league since the end of October! (a 2-1 home defeat to Leverkusen) FC Hollywood are without doubt the best side in world football at the moment. In the unbeaten run they have won 22 matches while drawing 4 (with 63 goals scored and 10 conceded) Bayern Munich are an awesome all round side whose style of play is so fluid they are almost unstoppable. Their supreme play was in evidence when they totally dismantled Barcelona 7-0 over two legs in the recent Champions League Semi-Final. With the league wrapped up and the big one at Wembley in Champions League to come and also a DFB Pokal final on the horizon its likely we will again see fringe players here. The level of players may drop but its only fractional as these squad members fit in seamlessly and the also play with a higher level of intensity. Rafinha is suspended and will miss the rest of the season but expect the likes of Jerome Boateng, Anatoliy Tymoshchuck and Claudio Pizarro to feature.
Augsburg are battling hard to stay in German Bundesliga after spending so many years trying to reach it. 2011 was their debut season and they surprised everyone by avoiding relegation. This season they worked hard but looked like dropping down until the last few weeks as other teams are struggling too. Augsburg have won 3 and lost 5 of the last eight and will need a miracle really as they are not expected to get anything at Allianz Arena. Augsburg are in 16th and in the Relegation Playoff spot at the moment with a record of 7 wins, 9 draws and 16 defeats. They are level on points with Fortuna Dusseldorf (but behind on GD) and are 2 points above Hoffenheim in the relegation spots. With Greuther Furth relegated it is all in Augsburg's hands. Augsburg are a solid, tactically sound, aggressive and versatile team and will have to be on maximum to even grab a point here.
It looks like being another one sided affair even if Bayern Munich are home and hosed in the league and with two major cup finals coming up. Bayern Munich are so ruthless that even their second string will go into the game fired up and determined to perform to give themselves a chance of selection in one of the big cup finals. Augsburg will try their hardest but they are so far beneath the world best side. I take the Asian Handicap of Bayern -2 (1.85 Bet365) which means a three goal victory for payout or a 2 goal win for a returned stake. Bayern have played Augsburg twice this season at the SGL Arena and won both matches 2-0. At home though it will be a different story where Bayern's goal difference for 16 games is +42.

Hi all,
Which is better to go for either Myvi 1.3 Auto OR Avanza 1.3E?? I'm
thinking to change for my wife next car.....which is almost city drives
for kids schooling and her working distances.
I'm interesting on below info's comparison to both above:-
- FC usages to both
- Maintainance cost on tear or wear
- ..or else...reliable functionate...
I know there are diff categories, but just thinking on which should grab
for as understand the prices has differ approx. 10-12K.

Both was using K3-VE engine derive from Daihatsu (Engine developed by
Daihatsu & Toyota). It was not really 100% Toyota engine.
As I know from you comment, you're family man. Since you already got one
car which was 4 doors or 2 doors. I suggest you to take Toyota Avanza
1.3E auto. You're now need basic 7 seater MPV.
FC, city driving for auto, almost the same. Now new Toyota Avanza 1.3E
got slightly twaeking and tuning for improved FC and power. Maintainance
cost for Toyota Avanza new car will cost more than Myvi. A lot of owner
complaint the charges by Toyota was too expensive.
Realible, I believe both are reliable. So far so good, beside FC from
both got different comment, no major issue. It just Myvi was front wheel
drive where else Avanza was rear wheel drive.
Think twice for your requirement. Myvi for city travelling, Avanza for
family use, I can say it was MPV starter pack.

I'm still on the midst/dilemma on above opt which is the most practically
and worth on getting change....
Yes, for Avanza (1.3 E auto)- this may lead a joy rides of families if
travelling for holiday.....
While, Myvi auto - this was practically on daily city drives on carrying
kids schooling and work station...
Anyhow, i was plan in change by 1st quarter of next year which is still
plenty times for me ...to think of!!

for the same set of use and traffic conditions, avanza fc will be some
15-20% more, being a heavier car (about 150kg more.......)
if you do NOT need 7 seats, myvi will be a better ride, more nippy, and
easier to park.........and save some fuel money......avanza is under
powered, and engine is rough on the highway, due to the tuning..........
i should know..........i've got both.........

advanza 1.3 is suffering from FC and under power due to heavy body...
unless you get 1.5 advanza, then it is better.
if you just using the car for fetching the children to school and you
have ard 3 kids, then no point going for MPV. it is always nice to have
MPV but dont buy it for the sake of buying it... due to nice to have
as other forumer said, you dont need to 7 seaters if you just have 5
people in the family... is a waste of money.
advanza 1.3 easily cost more than RM60K++ and myvi... standard one is
less than RM50K. the different at least RM10K to RM15K...

I have a pre-facelift Avanza 1.3 auto. And I have relatives using MYVI and
have driven those before too. Here are my personal views, hope it can help you.
1. Comfort - MYVI wins, Avanza is bouncy
2. FC - MYVI wins, my Avanza's avg FC from day 1 till now is about 10.8km/l
3. Transmission - MYVI wins, Avanza's transmission has slight jerk when
shifting, that's due to the rear wheel drive. Also Avanza's gearing is such
that at 110km/h the RPM is 3800. MYVI's in comparison is only 3000.
4. Space - Avanza wins without a fight. MYVI's boot is not very big, if you
have to carry 3-4 people with luggage, it will be a problem.
My opinion is you should get Avanza only if you need the 7 seater and/or
the space (i.e. carry 4-5 people and yet still have a lot of luggage space
at the back. I once went outstation with only 4 people in the car, but had
so much of luggage in the back (3 big bags, few plastic containers filled
with foodstuffs). The advantage is you can stack up quite a lot of things
at the back compared to sedans.
Avanza is also good for city driving, but not for long distance, high speed
driving as it's less comfortable than sedans - unless you are willing to
spend money on more sound proofing (the stock car already has quite good
design, because there is no wind noise at all even at 110km/h but engine
sounds like F1 due to the gearing mentioned earlier) and changing the
suspension system to after market versions.
If you don't need the space/7 seater, I'd say it's a no brainer - get the
MYVI. Save the RM12-15k.

I own both of this cars and their consumption is almost the same except
the quality of Toyota is definitely much better. Avanza is slightly
bouncy if you do not load it up with passangers as its absorber is
designed to carry weight.
The good thing about MYVI is a very nice little town car when comes to
parking. But the Avanza turning circle will shock many car smaller than
its size.

Moog's Minimoog VS Arturia's iMini
Marc Girard takes on the challenge to compare a classic synth with its emulated counterpart, background video description below:
Here's a quick video we made testing out the differences between a real Minimoog and a virtual one from Arturia, iMini. I was quite surprised!
Limited Edition MiniMoog Voyager at NAMM
Moog Music will be introducing a limited edition aluminum Minimoog Voyager.
The only thing that they've released at this point is this teaser image of the components that make up the new synth.
Details on availability and pricing are to come at the NAMM Show later this week.
Stylish miniMoog iPad controller
Inevitable Crafts shared this design for a Minimoog-style iPad MIDI controller.
It's in the proof-of-concept stage, and the plan is to base it on inexpensive, readily available components, including an Akai LPK8, a Behringer 202 sounccard and various plugs and connectors and birch wood from Home Depot.
complete IO for the ipad
__symmetric audio IN/OUT
__midi IN/OUT
__MS20 filter, patchable IN or OUT
as this is a proof of concept, i will take the cheapest parts available
__birch instead of mahagoni at homedepot for around
__akai lpk8 instead of anything decent, so no wheels, but the only alternative would be the line6 and thats too big
__behringer 202 soundcard, unsymmetric and generally crappy and RCA …. but small and cheap
__cheap usb hub
__female MIDI plugs and around 12 mono plugs (thats expensive ^^)
__some cables
__korg monotron for the filter
the controls left and right the ipad are mounted on dedicated panels to make it easier to expand and change layout.
Minimoog Demonstration: The Bob Moog Foundation Minimoog Raffle
Here is a demonstration of the sound and functionality of the Moog Minimoog being raffled by the Bob Moog Foundation. This synthesizer was modified by Rich Walborn, and signed by Gary Numan. It was purchased by the BMF as a fundraiser.

New Minimoog Model D Expansion Pack for Animoog
Moog Music today introduced the Minimoog Model D Expansion Pack for Animoog, their software synthesizer for iOS.
"Taking timbres from a Minimoog and placing them in Animoog creates very distinctive sounds that are advanced and invigorating," said Moog Chief Engineer Cyril Lance. "This isn't an emulation of a Minimoog. It is actually a new way to experience it."
The expansion pack includes 69 Timbres extracted from a vintage Minimoog Model D analog synthesizer, and 213 presets designed for Animoog's Anisotropic Synthesis Engine.
- 68 Timbres extracted exclusively from the Minimoog Model D
- 213 Presets
- 38 Presets designed by Dom Kane
- 41 Presets designed by Sascha Dikiciyan
- 50 Presets designed by Kevin Lamb
- 41 Presets designed by Drew Neumann
- 43 Presets designed by Adam Holzman
The Minimoog Model D Expansion Pack is available now as an In-App-Purchase within Animoog for iPhone & iPad for $6.99.

Synth Answer No. 1 = Studio Electronics Midimoog
So Studio Electronics Midimoog was the right answer. It is actually a real Minimoog (original Minimoog boards) in a different (19″) housing with MIDI. Fabulous machine!!!
The Midimoog is an excellent resurrection of the Minimoog by Studio Electronics, a company that has shown with its ATC-1 Tone Chameleon that they can emulate the classic synths. Remaining faithful to the original design, circuitry and components, Studio Electronics has recreated the original in a new rackmount MIDI equipped unit. Every unit has a genuine Minimoog Model D board inside. They've added a new dedicated LFO in addition to the Midi. Unfortunately, due to the 100% analog design of this synth, including the analog pots and switch controllers, retrofitting patch memory to the original Minimoog boards would have been a major electronic undertaking. So just like the original Minis, there is no patch memory storage.
The front panel layout of the Midimoog strongly resembles the Minimoog's original design. Familiar to old Minimoogers and fairly easy to learn and explore for the newer users. As for the sounds… they're the real thing. Three oscillators power this monophonic analog beast to create fat and warm synth basses, leads, blip-bleeps and sweeping sounds. The classic 24 dB/oct lowpass Moog filter is here too, and just as powerful as always. The rack-mountability and MIDI implementation alone make this an excellent choice for anyone looking for the famous warm Moog sounds in a compact yet classic MIDI-equipped module.
Minimoog, Memorymoog, LinnDrum 1 & 2
A live "dreamy" improvisation on Minimoog, Memorymoog, and LinnDrum.
Minimoog: synth bass
Memorymoog: synth
LinnDrum: drum machine
"Another, more "hypnotic" and laidback live jam on Minimoog, Memorymoog and Linndrum. My silly camera decided to stop recording the video after 10 seconds, so I placed a photo of the gear. Listen to this one in low lights ;-)"

Jo's StoryI love my pressure cooker and it makes such tasty dishes in no time at all. The original recipe cooking time for this was 25 minutes, but since I live at 5,000 ft. above sea level I upped the time to cook this to 30 minutes. I found the lentils were too hard after being cooked for just 25 minutes.
The rule of thumb is for every 1,000 feet above 2,000 ft. above sea level increase the cooking time by 5%. So my increase was 15%.
This recipe is so yummy and I added stinging nettles to mine instead of spinach. The flavor of this soup is really good and gets better over time, so make lots!
We grow a huge patch of it every year, it's a wonderful super food and goes great in this dish. Just make sure you don't touch the nettles if you do use them. Once they are emerged into the hot soup they lose their sting.
1/2 large
onion chopped medium
4 clove
garlic, pressed
2 Tbsp
grapeseed oil
2 medium
carrots, chopped
2 medium
celery ribs
1 tsp
ground cumin
4 c
chicken or vegetable broth
1 c
dry lentils, rinsed and cleaned
2 medium
bay leaves
5 1/8 oz
fresh spinach or stinging nettles
Directions Step-By-Step
1In the pressure cooker, sweat the onion and garlic in grapeseed oil until the onions are translucent.
2Add the carrots and celery and saute for a minute or two.
3Add the ground cumin and stir well.
4Add the broth, lentils and bay leaves. Close the pressure cooker and bring up to pressure.
5Cook for about 25 minutes. If you live at a higher elevation then read the description as to how to adjust your cooking time. I had to do mine at least 30 minutes to compensate for the altitude.
6Release the steam from the pressure cooker by the quick release method. This means putting it in the sink and running a small stream of water on the lid, but check with your pressure cookers instructions first. You can also let the pressure come down on it's own as well.
7Remove the bay leaves. If using the spinach add it to the soup and stir until it wilts, this should take only a few minutes. The heat from the soup will wilt it very easy. Same if you use stinging nettles, it wilts easy also.
8Season with salt and pepper if you like.

I urge you to repost this and intentionally spell the words
wrong - not just out of order, but leave letters off, substitute the wrong vowels for example, or even better use the wrong homonyms. Then see if the above passage is still readable. I would contest it would be significantly more difficult to comprehend.
I've seen this before, and it is quite interesting.
As a side note, a recent newspaper article reported on the number of 'cartoons' that Ben & Jerry's Ice Cream company produces in a year. While Ben & Jerry was a cartoon, and 'cartoon' is only one letter away from 'carton,' the two words are obviously not interchangeable.
Spelling does matter. Would you want to know your pharmacist filling that prescription doesn't know how to spell, or doesn't think it's important to get the name of a drug EXACTLY right?

Your misplaced Ariens Hate is telling
I'm surprized by the amount of Ariens hate around here. My brother used to feel the same way, he used to get on my nerves with his hatred for Ariens. One day I told him "listen little brother, you just don't understand what you are seeing when you watch football." My little brother never played. I played from the age of 12 to 22, when I blew out my knee.
I explained to my brother that you can't blame the OC when the QB causes more than 50% of the pass plays to break down and turn into chaos.
Ben isn't a rhythm pocket passer, and he isn't an accurate passer. Ben gets the ball close, and the reciever has to adjust to the ball.
Ben needs a big window. Or lots of time.
Ben breaks the play down as soon as he scrambles. Offensive linemen hate to block for Ben because they don't have eyes on the back of their heads. They can't block for him if they don't know where he is.
Ariens tries to compensate for Bens lack of ability by designing short pass plays that are easy to hit.
My only issue with Ariens, is that by doing that, he takes the "attack" out of the offense.
Offense means "Attack". Ariens should design more plays that have design rollouts and waggles. That way, the OL knows where Ben is without seeing him, and Ben can buy the time to look for a big window.
Ariens isn't to blame for the offensive woes, Ben is. Ariens can't make Ben stay in the pocket and pull the trigger. Ariens makes the problem worse, only to the degree that he designs too many short pass plays to accomodate Bens inablity to throw accurate long balls THEREFORE ARIENS AND THE OFFENSE IS PREDICTABLE.
Ben can't throw a good deep ball, so teams don't have to sit in 2-deep and blitz. They can bring their safetys up and get them involved in the run defense, and not worry about corners getting beat deep because Ben just can't make the deep throw.
Nowadays, my brother better understands that , with Ben, the play you see, often isn't the play that was called, or designed. So, he doesn't blame the OC.
So, the question is the mystery: What would happen if Ben just threw on rhythm and ran the play as called?What would happen if he just threw through the window presented? Would the OL look better and be happier if Ben did what the rest of the "PRO Quarterbacks" do , and drop back and get rid of the ball?

Re: Your misplaced Ariens Hate is telling
I'm glad that SOMEONE sees this!
In fact, I'd go as far as to say that Ben's random scrambling is a big part of why we have so many injuries in the O-line. All of that "extra" blocking takes its toll especially when getting hit while turning around to see where Ben is.
I've said that Arians is trying to work with Ben's skill-set and with his preference for moving around, but it's not easy to plan for movement that is largely unplanned. It's also true about Ben's lack of a deep ball. That is his Achilles heel and the main reason why we don't "go deep". Ben's wheelhouse is up to about 30 yards or so. In that range he's deadly, but anything longer is iffy at best.
His scrambling ability is his best asset but it's also the hardest thing in the world to game-plan around and if the idea is to let him continue to do that, then I don't think there's an OC in the world who could do much better.

Re: Your misplaced Ariens Hate is telling
exactly!!!! ben is perfectly built for that! mike shanahan would absolutely LOVE a qb like ben.
the problem with arians is that he refuses to design those plays because he actually believes he is tricking the rest of the NFL by NOT doing what obviously should be done.
hes a genius i tell ya!
so we should just trade ben to washington and find a qb who is more compatable with arians geniusness.

Re: Your misplaced Ariens Hate is telling
I got into this with someone else in another thread, and I'm certainly willing to get into it here: Let's assume that you are absolutely right, and the problem is Ben. How and why does that make you feel any better about Bruce Arians? I just don't get it.
Why does God hate amputees?

Re: Your misplaced Ariens Hate is telling
....time and time and time and time again this year Ben can't stand in the pocket because our OL is getting mauled, manhandled, and mowed down in 2 seconds and they're all over him. Therefore, he HAS to extend the play (if possible).
Arians is NOT designing short pass plays except for that damned bubble screen. The short slant passes that could be designed...are not being designed.
The more i've looked at this and studied our offense this week, the less i see Ben is the one at fault. It's the playbook and our OL for the most part.

Re: Your misplaced Ariens Hate is telling
And Elway and Shannahan didn't get a lombardi until Terrell Davis showed up.!!
That could happen in the Burg if we can get Taiwan Jones.
And I DID mention that Ariens doesn't design those rollouts and waggles, THEREBY TAKING THE "ATTACK" out of "OFFENSE".
There is two ways to handle this problem. Keep trying to "make" Ben into a pocket rhythm passer, or redesign the play schemes to take advantage of Bens strengths.
Somebody, probably Tomlin, is insisting on Ben trying to become a prototype, when he isn't now, nor will he ever be.
Elway made the transition after 10 years in the league. He stayed in the pocket and threw on rhythm, but he was inaccurate as hell. Shannon sharpe made Elway look good by catching so many of Elways 40 yard frozen ropes.

Re: Your misplaced Ariens Hate is telling
I played QB my whole life from 5 til 18 and then some city league shit.. I didnt blow out my knee I just wasnt good enough to go anywhere else.. I was pretty good though but just not good enough.. anyway your dead wrong... sorry
yes BEN is a little different which I like.. its what makes him special.. he has 2 superbowl wins and throws for over 4000 yards so bottom line is he gets it done most times... I got one simple question for you.. Do you have DVR?? I watch and record every game like most steeler fans.. then during the week I re watch it for fun and slow motion many of the plays... the D is running our routes most times.. which are 75 percent 20 yard flags and post patterns... We never isolate Miller on their LB.. .like teams do to us..BEN drops back looks for his first read.. and sometimes his second,,, then he takes off.. the first and second read is hardly ever open that my friend is because of O coord... plain and simple its on tape as Tomlin likes to say.. all you got to do is watch it. On top of that 25 percent of the time he does even have time to look for his 1st or second read because of the line getting their ass kicked.
Anyway BEN does hold the ball to try for big plays,, and yes he could get a little better with accurate timing passes.. however make no mistake about it his recievers are covered the majority of the time.. With our Talent at WR there is no way in hell that should happen.. also with our team there is no way in hell we should get matchup problems for the D.. but we never seem to get them... Id like to have a Dollar for every time Timmons is running after a TE up the seam.. hell sometimes he is even on the slot guy... also james farriors old ass is always running behind some RB... thats called coaching O coord doing their job... We never and I mean never get those things..
We never hardly use end arounds... although the one time we use it a game it gets big yards or at least good gains.
we never use the waggle, although BEN is a very mobile QB that kills teams when hes outside the pocket
we cant run screens cause this o coord cant design them.... we suck at them.. although they are a good tool for teams that keep bringing the house like the ravens do to us.
we do however call one good game about every 5.. like we did against the pats.. that was a well thought out game plan which burned their ass... but we dont back many of those games up
bottom line bud pop the tape in and watch the routes.. I havea blast breaking the film down you will see it plain as day.. BEN cant throw in rythem when the D is sitting on the route

Re: Your misplaced Ariens Hate is telling
you're also forgetting that other QB's such as Brady and his OC, utilize their tight ends, almost to obsession. This free's up other receivers, allowing Brady a better quick read.
We would have to change our playbook to accomodate this (which i would love and think we should immediately).
Ben could be a more elite "pocket" passer without question....but the scheme around him needs a redesign. It's an impossibility in this type of coached offense.

Re: Your misplaced Ariens Hate is telling
What if the steelers would be putting 40 points a game on the board if Ben would just bring back the freakin spaghetti! We don't know how good an OC Ariens is if his QB won't run the designed and called play.
Does that help?

Re: Your misplaced Ariens Hate is telling
did you watch the NE game ? ben shredded them with THE SHORT passing game that brady always shreds the steelers with. arians apparently tossed that playbook right after the game , because we never seen that gameplan since.

The White House has released their menu for Thanksgiving Day 2014. The First Family will "be dinning with family." How does the menu compare to yours?
When you find a hometown that fits you just right and everyone starts moving there, is is still number one with you? Fort Collins ranked number one, again.
Video is again surfacing on Vice President Joe Biden threatening impeachment against President Bush for the same actions our current President has done.
Michelle Obama doing her own dishes and laundry now? Not quite, but the White House staff is nearly extinct due to the Government shutdown.
This morning, thousands of Larimer County workers were forced to stay home from work, as the Federal Government shut down.
Well, it's October 1st and our Government has effectively shut down, hundreds of National Parks have been closed including the War Memorials in Washington D.C. That however, did not stop a Mississippi Honor Flight crew from visiting anyway.
As President Obama garners support on a military strike on Syria I have to ask myself, "Self, is this really the best thing for me as a United States citizen?" It seems though as Big Brother is ready to be the big bully once again.
America is undoubtedly the land of free speech (recent news about the NSA aside). But there's one thing in particular you probably shouldn't say, even to your thereapist, as one Colorado man found out.
Along comes another edition of "Vickie's Corner" and this week she seems upset. I admire her honesty and fact driven blog and just as I invited her to share her thoughts on my blog page, I always welcome those who oppose her views to share them as well in a well thought out and professional way. If you have an interest in sharing views from another side, please email me and I will feature you once a week as well.
News agencies across the country,and social media sites like Instagram, Twitter and Facebook have blown up with Marines being called in to hold umbrella's for the President even though it violates Marine code. Right or wrong? You be the judge by answering our poll inside the story.
Adam Kokesh was a corporal in the United States Marine Corps and a veteran of the Iraq War. In 2007, he became a member and leading proponent of "Iraq Veterans Against the War". His demonstrations protesting the U.S. military missions overseas, and acts of 'civil disobedience' have attracted controversy at times. Like this one.

Liripoe Muscari Tubers
zone78border(8)October 19, 2010
I have dug up and divided and replanted my variegated liriope, and have remaining a bunch of the little tubers with roots attached (I guess that is what they are - they look like baby potatoes) but no greenery. I was wondering if I can plant these in maybe one of those little greenhouse seed starter kits - would they sprout?
Thanks a bunch!
PS - I really appreciate this forum!

Monmouth, Illinois March 2007 Celebrating 82 Years of AAUW in Monmouth From the Co-Presidents Lila Blum and Marilyn Van Ausdall It was a proud moment and most enlightening at the February meeting when three of our own branch members, Ruby, Laksmi, and Isa discussed the status and progress of women in their respective countries. We were reminded that women's struggle for equal status is ongoing and that progress is gradual. During the animated social period, hostesses Estelle Barnes and Jonalyn Heaton provided delicious refreshments. We have entered into a busy period of branch activities. The Women's History Month Essay Contest is in progress with a large number of essays submitted by sixth graders in Warren County. Preparations for the District #238 school board candidates' meetings are underway. Please read more about this important public event in a separate article. We invite you to consider attending the AAUW-IL convention in Bloomington on April 27-28. By that time we can enjoy the beauty of spring as we journey across Illinois. Whether or not you can attend the convention, we'd like you to think about being nominated for one of the two branch offices that will be vacant at the end of the year: Membership Vice President and Secretary. Kathy Lowe-Arthur and Joyce Hagemann, currently in these offices, are willing to answer your questions about their job responsibilities. You will enjoy being part of the leadership team with Ronda Willhardt, incoming President, and Nancy Buban, Vice President for Program, and Shirley 1 Dadonna, Treasurer. Please give it some thought. We were pleased to see so many branch members at member Jane Jakoubek's interesting talk in "The F Word" series at Monmouth College. On March 28, at 7 p.m., member Ruby PentsilBukari will give a talk in the same series in the Morgan Room on campus. Our March meeting will be held at the Monmouth College Art Gallery on March 19 where Brian Baugh will give a gallery talk about the faculty art exhibition currently on display. We will hold a business meeting following the program. Please see the details of the March program and the directions for parking on campus in a separate article in this issue of the Initiative. We look forward to seeing you on the 19th! Gallery Talk: The Monmouth College Art Faculty Exhibition Lila Blum On Monday, March 19, at 7 p.m., we will meet at Monmouth College in the Len G. Everett Gallery located on the second floor of the Hewes Library. Our guest speaker will be Brian Baugh, Assistant Professor of Art, who will discuss the art works of seven art department faculty members which are currently on display. The exhibition features paintings, drawings, photography, sculpture, ceramics, and watercolors by Cheryl Meeker, Stacy Lotz, Stephanie Baugh, Brian Baugh, Tyler Hennings, Steve Ingram, and Mary Phillips. Brian, who holds an MFA in painting from University of Florida, and a BFA in painting and printmaking from the University of Montevallo in Alabama, joined the Monmouth faculty in 2005. His art works have been in juried exhibitions at University of Florida and at the Lyndon House Arts Center in Athens, Georgia. The still life works he created for the current show "come from a love of the process of drawing and painting from direct observation," he says. Interested in the art of the past, he explains, "I draw and paint in a traditional style based on a study of the old masters' techniques." Brian teaches courses in drawing, painting, and design. Please join us for this special opportunity to view the show and learn more from Brian's presentation about the variety of techniques and ideas with which all the artists are working. In compliance with a restriction on food from off campus, we will not serve refreshments at this event. Nevertheless we will enjoy our usual social time between the program presentation and the business meeting which will be held in Room 124 on the first floor. A word about parking: To park in the lot close to the library on the west side, take North 6th Street to Clinton Avenue, turn east toward the campus and proceed the equivalent of two blocks. The parking lot will come into view. Parking is also available along the street on East Detroit Avenue between North 9th Street and North 10th Street or in Vicki Young's driveway which can accommodate up to four cars. (Vicki's house is at 513 North 9th Street, but her driveway is accessed from Detroit.) After parking and walking the short distance to 9th Street, walk south and enter the campus between Cleland and Winbigler Residence Halls. The entrance to the east side of the library comes into view. County Public Library on Monday, March 19, at 4:30. She will talk about the reading-writing connection and the way her life, particularly her childhood in Ethiopia, has affected her writing. Please come! You can read more about her at janekurtz.com. School Board Candidates' Meetings Marilyn Van Ausdall Lila and I hope that branch members who live in the Monmouth-Roseville School District will be able to attend one or both of the scheduled forums. The first one will be Tuesday, March 27, at M-R High School auditorium in Monmouth at 7 p.m., and the second one will be the following Tuesday, April 3, in the M-R Junior High gymnasium in Roseville at 7 p.m. Helpers will be needed to distribute notecards and pencils to those in attendance who wish to submit questions, and then to deliver the questions to the moderator. A list of questions was developed by some of our members and submitted to the candidates on Saturday, March 3. The answers are due back by March 19, and will then be combined into an article and submitted to newspapers in Monmouth, Roseville, and Galesburg. The school board election will be Tuesday, April 17. Public Policy Jan DeYoung As we look forward to our AAUW-sponsored candidates' forums for Monmouth-Roseville District 238 School Board on March 27 and April 3, we need to be well informed on some of the many issues facing educators and school boards today. Naturally, a majority of our questions will focus on local issues, but we need to recognize some facts which influence the quality of the education we provide for our children and grandchildren based on the way schools in Illinois are funded. Did you know that although Illinois is the fifth largest state in population and personal income, 2 Author Jane Kurtz to Speak at Warren County Public Library Jan DeYoung Noted children's author and Monmouth College graduate Jane Kurtz will speak at the Warren and 12th highest in personal income per student, we rank 47th in the amount of funding the state provides for public education? Did you know that we have the worst gap in per pupil spending on education, from a high of $23,000 per child to a low of less than $5000 per child? (Monmouth-Roseville's per-child spending is $6,537.29, very near the low end, and slightly higher than the state minimum foundation level of $5,164.) As a result of this disparity, the gap in achievement between highand low-spending districts is one of the highest in the country and growing rapidly. The No Child Left Behind Act penalizes schools that do not meet certain standards, and yet funding in Illinois favors districts with the highest Equalized Assessed Valuations and penalizes districts with high numbers of poor, minority, and disabled students — those who need the greatest support! One thing our local board members can do is join the A+ Illinois coalition and work hard to lobby the Illinois General Assembly to change the way Illinois schools are funded. A+ Illinois espouses the following five principles: 1. Ensure that all children receive a quality education by establishing adequate, reliable, sustainable funding for Illinois schools. 2. Develop state-based tax revenues based on a fair, efficient, stable, responsible, and transparent system that is not regressive, that encourages responsible and accountable use of public funds, that helps create responsible economic development, job creation and sound regional planning, and that helps close the state's structural deficit. 3. Support proven strategies that build capacity to improve student learning and close the student achievement gap. 4. Put our state on more sound fiscal footing to protect education, human services and community programs that are vital to the wellbeing of children and families, particularly those Illinoisans most in need. 5. Break the strong correlation between individuals' addresses and the quality of their schools, availability of their housing options, and 3 the health of their local communities and economy. The A+ Illinois website (www.aplusillinois.org) has an enormous amount of well-researched and clearly written material to help citizens understand the connection between inequitable funding and the achievement gap. Please take time to check out some of the material! If you haven't signed the petition, please sign it online or at the next branch meeting. And be prepared to ask our candidates how hard they are willing to work to get this problem corrected Other Issues in Education At the federal level, the Continuing Resolution, keeping the government going, expired in February. As the President worked on the FY2007 and 08 budgets, increases in both the Pell Grant program an No Child Left Behind were questionable, as were adequate funding of the Women's Equity in Education Act and Perkins loans. AAUW will continue to work to ensure that these programs which are essential to achieving equity are adequately funded. We will also need to continue to monitor Title IX to maintain the important protections provided by this legislation. Well be looking for YOU at one (or both) of the Candidates' Forums!

Strawberry Sundae™ Hydrangea
A PeeGee with Amazing Flower Power!
It's an irresistible combination: big blooms on a compact shrub. Add the fact that these particular flowers open lime-green, then quickly turn creamy white, soft pink, and finally darkest red, and you have the makings of a showstopping garden or container display. Welcome Strawberry Sundae™, a compact, heavy-blooming, easy-care PeeGee Hydrangea!
Strawberry Sundae™ is just 4 to 5 feet tall and not quite as wide, just right for the foundation or driveway planting as well as the partly shaded border. You could even put it in a large container -- it's that compact! Well-branched, rounded, and bushy, it makes a huge impression in not much space, with large, bright green, toothy leaves that keep it handsome long before and after bloomtime.
But the flowers completely steal the show on this beauty. Beginning in early summer, long, thick, pointed wands begin arising, packed with florets. They keep coming for several months, so you'll see all flower colors present at the same time on the shrub. Cut all you like for fresh or dried bouquets, but save a few for garden enjoyment too. Magnificent!
This hydrangea is a PeeGee type, one of the cold-hardiest of all, and also very tolerant of urban pollution. Of course, like all hydrangeas, it loves moisture (that "hydra" in the name is the tip-off!), so plant it in good, continuously moist garden soil, or water the container regularly. Untroubled by pests and diseases, it is among the easiest of shrubs to grow. Give it full sunshine only in the northern edge of its hardiness range, opting for dappled or afternoon shade farther south and west.
Strawberry Sundae™ comes to us from French breeder Jean Renault, who is also responsible for the larger, weeping-habit Vanilla Strawberry®. Long-blooming, ever-changing, and easy to grow -- you just can't beat PeeGees! Zones 4-8.

The Australian government has junked the controversial plan to allow people to go on a crocodile hunting safari in the Northern Territory. According to government officials, crocodile "trophy hunts" are not appropriate.
Australia's Environment Minister Greg Hunt said ministers have periodically rejected the plan of hunting crocodiles. Mr Hunt said that he is personally concerned about the risk of cruel and inhumane treatment to crocodiles.
The proposed crocodile safari hunt supported by the Northern Territory would have allowed hunters to shoot 50 crocodiles. According to reports, about 500 crocodiles are killed in the region every year. Supporters of the controversial plan argued that hunting crocodiles will be a good source of income for indigenous communities.
Bess Price, minister or Parks and Wildlife, has denounced the decision. Talking to the AP news agency, Ms Price said Mr Hunt has made a decision which does nothing for the indigenous people living in Northern Territory's remote communities.
Animal activist groups rejected the crocodile safari hunt and said killing animals like the crocodile will only send the wrong message. Australia's saltwater crocodiles can grow to a length of 23 feet or 7 metres with a weight of up to one tonne.
In 1971, crocodiles were declared a protected species and since then increased in numbers. They are commonly seen in the tropical north of Australia.
A video of a snake eating a crocodile in Australia has grown viral earlier in the month. The battle between the snake and the crocodile at Lake Moondarra near Mount Isa was caught on camera by the locals, according to a BBC report. The snake measured approximately 10 feet and was believed to be a python.
Locals saw how the snake coiled itself around the crocodile as both creatures struggled in the water. When the crocodile finally succumbed to its death, the snake dragged its body back to land and began to eat it. The onlookers were surprised to see the snake eating the crocodile. When the snake finally overpowered the crocodile, it dragged the dead body on land and proceeded to eat it face-first.

Participation in a re-occurring program of boundary/ethics awareness training is expected of authorized ministers holding standing in the United Church of Christ. In the Central Pacific Conference, all ministers – active and retired – have been asked to take part in a boundary/ethics awareness workshop once every four years. Our Committee on Ministry (formerly Covenants Ministry Team) strives to offer these workshops on a two-year cycle.
CPC ministers have called for separate, specialized boundary/ethics workshops that address the unique needs and issues of retired clergy. The Committee on Ministry has researched this concept and developed a boundary/ethics program that is more relevant and convenient for our retired clergy. Here are some highlights of the new program:
Retired clergy who have an active ministerial role as interims, supply preachers, Conference leaders or community activists should continue to participate in regular COM boundary/ethics workshops on the normal four-year cycle.
A detailed description of this new program: "Boundary/Ethics Workshops for Retired Clergy" may be found on the Committee on Ministry page on this website.
Help us update some worn out, well-used items in preparation for the 2015 camp season. We are currently raising funds for the following items:
A great big THANK YOU from all of us at Camp Adams to all the Camp Adams Community!
