Thank you. Dk. I had a wonderful time in your home. Thank you. Come visit me in Wild and Wonderful West Virginia. PS-I love how you ate all the chocolates but sent the empty box with me. I was so excited to eat just one more piece.....but it was empty. You are a tease. |

I had to return home today. Had a blast working with the master. Came home and immediately directed my attention to my babies. Here is my tank.....so far. |
wicca27 | shrimpterns are so lucky lol. one day DK needs to do a pod cast lol |
DKShrimporium |
We started the day fueled by (Shrimptern-made; DK has no problem being a-fed stuff by Shrimpterns and quite happily offers consumption services if needed) pumpkin muffins, washed down by copious volumes of coffee and topped off with a few of those chocolates. Now fully fueled by carb overload, we were ready to take on the orchid extravaganza, all three hours of walking around we did. DK's head nearly exploded, trying to assimilate all the gorgeous visual data entering her retinas. Shrimptern 3.0 leaves in the morning, unfortunately. Upon arrival, DK had warned that they would be leaving with a head full of - ahem - unconventional ideas. So tonight DK asked Shrimptern if this would be the case, and was answered in the affirmative. BWAHAHAHAHAHAAAAAAA!!! She showed Shrimptern her notebook on Sulawesi research, all inch and a half of printouts and DK comments thereof, and her scritchy-scratch notes on how to make Mermaid water. She had forgotten the rather lengthy and tortuous process she went through to try to convert completely opposite water into instant Sulawesi water, a process the Malili lake system takes a long time to make, percolating through very unique geology to brew its agua. Tonight in the tank, DK measured the beginnings of the water correction and noticed several new berried Mermaids. It remains to be seen if the correction will overshoot her goals. It's always a bit of a crap shoot, working with hobby level implements, tests, chemistry, and such. But, heck, it wouldn't be sporting if we actually had hard answers on a lot of our data questions, would it? It was rather nice to be able to explain to Shrimptern why most of the tanks are at the stage they are at, which was affected by the Mermaid project. DK had a Mermaid recipe wanting to crystallize out of solution so had shut down the system to save her injectors until she had a game plan to make adjustments. This system shut down affected the global flow volume through Water Factory III, which had bumped her operating range slightly below that needed for accurate injections for the OTHER tanks, so while the Sulawesi problem was being worked on and the Sulawesi tanks were offline, all the other tanks were being slightly under-injected and this had bumped nearly all of them out of breeding range water during this time. It was fun to discuss this with Shrimptern because Shrimptern has a bio-engineering degree and has also had a technical career in recent years operating quite sophisticated equipment that utilizes pumps, filtration, and all sorts of biochemistry. So it was a lotta fun to sit around waaaay too late and talk of technical stuff, together. ****** And now, DK's blathering, and a-gonna sign off, 'cause she's waaay tired and the Shrimptern 3.0 adventure is nearly over, until... SHRIMPTERN 4.0.......... who's it gonna be? I have no idea... . |

Today was a great day Hello everyone, Today was a fantastic day. I will admit the temperature was extremely cold and the wind was blowing hard. DK and I returned to the Amish store and I purchased a small cabinet. It is made from reclaimed barn wood. I plan on finishing it when I get home. After going to the Amish store we went to Longwood Gardens. Due to the time of year, certain sections were closed off. That did not matter since the place is huge. Pierre DuPont was the rich man that started the Conservancy. He built this place so that he could have fresh fruit through out the year. He also collected many different types of rare plants. During this month the Conservancy has its orchid show. I LOVE orchids. There were so many to look at and DK found herself overwhelmed with beauty. I loved looking at the different types of orchids, and wished very much that they would be mine. After we got home, I helped DK net out some shrimp from one of her tanks. She also let me dip into some of her tanks and get a ton of plants. I hope that her plants do better in my tanks than mine are doing at the moment. I have a bad case of black beard algae. Here are some photos from today's adventure. Enjoy. |

Yeah, it's a hardship, being a Shrimptern. Assorted handmade chocolates. As is typical, DK lied. She lies, a lot. We did NOT go see the orchid extravaganza today, because, well, Shrimptern wanted to see the Amish place, and we's wuz lazy again, a-gettin' started late. So we go orchiding ta-morra, and also BACK to the Amish place, to pick up Shimptern's Amish piece. It's hard to be motivated at the tail end of the ENDLESS winter, and when one is overly full of not-health-food and underly full of sleep hours. I didn't mention it, because the brain is whirring-out and mis-firing due to sleep deprivation, but yesterday we slightly re-configured Water Factory III in an effort to fine tune the Mermaids' automation. So we eagerly wait in anticipation the results, over the next weeks. Shrimptern did get a nice view of some Mermaid babies today, after she cleaned their tank glass. Oh yeah, the clock hands for the German movement did finally arrive, so DK assembled her vintage deco-industrial slave clock into her new keeshin time machine. She opted to leave it in all its imperfect, scratched up storied greatness. Kewl. . |
SmoothSailor | Mr. DK was so kind and brought us some chocolates from Govatos. Delicious. I already ate 25% of the box. |

Shrimptern 3 update Today was a relaxing day. Cleaned the algae off the tanks so that I could get a better view of the shrimp. DK uses a nylon bath glove to clean the inside of her tanks. Personally I use a flat razor blade, but you run the risk of scratching your tanks. DK stated that she used to use this method too, but after a few scratches she went to using the glove. Stopped by the local Amish shop where DK had her bar top made. There were some very nice pieces there. I plan on returning tomorrow with my SUV and will purchase a piece for my home. Prices are affordable and have character, which I like very much. Will post pictures soon. |

Yeah, so Shrimptern 3.0 is really tired, and full. Yesterday we ate purple. Purple chicken soup topped off with black raspberry cheesecake over a black chocolate crust. It's hard, being a Shrimptern. So today we had all these plans. Problem was we were tired, and sluggish, so got moving rather late. The plan was total annual system maintenance of Wetwedding and Waterfactory III. It was humming along pretty well, lots of work, until the DRAMA HIT. So, we had pulled two micro-injectors off the wall to open them up, inspect, replace seals, lube, and make adjustments. Um. Yeah. So DK THOUGHT she had remembered to turn the system from "auto" to "off"... Suddenly, she hears this weird noise, and realizes it's gushing water. We have a totally open system with injectors removed, now turned on, geisering water over the WFIII control board. Yeah, so it took a while to mop it up. Had to take down the three stenner pumps which had had a dousing, and put them in the handy-dandy convection oven on "bread raising" mode for a few hours, to dry the pump motors out. Fortunately, it worked. So, all in all we changed RO filters, the RO permeate pump has been replaced, we took down three injectors and three pumps and did maintenance, lube, and cleaning of all and re-mounted them. Then we beta tested on flush mode, checking all the connections and functions. Good news is it looks like the day, while very long, was very successful. It was fueled by a batch of DK's chocolate chip cookies; smoked salmon, cream cheese, avocado, water chestnut on black sticky rice and nori sashimi topped by spicy sauce and roasted sesame seeds, and copious amounts of libations. Tomorrow, we hit the world famous Longwood Gardens, 'cause Shrimptern 3.0 is an orchid freak and as it happens their annual orchid extravaganza is right now a-goin' on. Below is a picture of the orchid Shrimptern 3.0 presented to DK upon arrival. And, um, Shrimptern 3.0 has crawled off to visit the ijoy massage chair, and DK's nook is a-callin' her, so more later, stay tuned. . |

Hello everyone....I am Shrimptern 3. Hi everyone, So I am officially Shrimptern 3. I got here yesterday from Bridgeport, WV. (I was born in Pennsylvania!) Took me about 5 hours to drive, but I had to make a few stops along the way so it turned into a 6 hour drive. It was worth it though. I will suck all intelligence from DK's brain for the next few days and share it with all of you. I have been completely blown away with DK's mad doings! She is super smart and I am so impressed with her shrimp set up downstairs. Her kitchen looks amazing for those that have been following her thread. Today we did maintenance on her Dosmatic dosing pumps. I learned that routine maintenance of pumps is very important and should be done at least twice a year. DK uses Du Pont Teflon Silicone Lubricant to lubricate the rubber components of her pumps. I was surprised that this substance does not affect the shrimp in her tanks, especially since many are very sensitive. I have noticed that shrimp love cooked broccoli. It's important to not over feed your shrimp tanks because water quality is vital. DK uses little clay plates to prevent the food from dropping down into the substrate. Any extra food can easily be removed if not eaten, thus preventing foiling of the water. I have included a few photos. I apologize that the quality is poor. I used my phone. I will try to get some better photos for everyone tomorrow. Enjoy. |

• From a synopsis on the PBS website, "Origami may seem an unlikely medium for understanding and explaining the world. But around the globe, several fine artists and theoretical scientists are abandoning more conventional career paths to forge lives as modern-day paper folders. Through origami, these offbeat and provocative minds are reshaping ideas of creativity and revealing the relationship between art and science. Between the Folds chronicles 10 of their stories. Featuring interviews with and insights into the practice of these intrepid paper folders, the film opens with three of the world's foremost origami artists: a former sculptor in France who folds caricatures in paper rivaling the figures of Daumier and Picasso; a hyper-realist who walked away from a successful physics career to challenge the physics of a folded square instead; and an artisanal papermaker who folds impressionistic creations from the very same medium he makes from scratch. The film then moves to less conventional artists, exploring concepts of minimalism, deconstruction, process and empiricism. ... The film also features advanced mathematicians and a remarkable scientist who received a MacArthur Genius Award for his computational origami research. While debates ebb and flow on issues of folding technique, symbolism and purpose, this unique film shows how closely art and science are intertwined. The medium of paper folding — a simple blank, uncut square — emerges as a resounding metaphor for the creative potential for transformation in all of us." Screen the film at the Asheville Art Museum, 2 S. Pack Square. 2 p.m. Free with museum membership or admission. An additional screening will be offered Sunday.

On their new album Conventions, the newly-expanded band marries the staples of the the pop music form (fist-pumping beats, noisy guitars and catchy hooks) with peculiar harmonies and oddball song structures," says Ugly Purple Sweater's bio.

The D.C. natives play MoDaddy's, 77 Biltmore Ave., with Vincent's Missing Ear and Grammer School. 10 p.m. $5.

"It feels great," Dungey said. "I've said it a lot, but (the team) had a lot to figure out. I felt like we made improvements at the middle of the season and to keep winning since round three is awesome to finish off on a strong note like this. I've had a lot of fun his season. All the success we've had is because of the effort of everyone at KTM."

Blade I was the best film in the series; the rest were a total waste of time. Oh, and Patton Oswald is a douche. He really irritates the hell out of me for some reason--hated him in Caprica.
Wait...there are people who don't search out porn online?!? That's almost as rare as honesty in politics.

[LONDON] Investing in agricultural infrastructure, from roads to fertilisers, will cut water wastage on a scale greater than any other intervention and is the best way to solve the world's water problems, a leading specialist has said.
Colin Chartres, director general of the International Water Management Institute in Sri Lanka, was talking to SciDev.Net to highlight the launch of a book he has co-written with colleague Samyuktha Varma. The book describes a 'six−point plan' for saving the world's water supplies.
The message coincides with SciDev.Net's launch, today, of a Spotlight on Water Security and Climate Change, a collection of feature and opinion articles.
"The most critical thing, and where we can make the biggest inroads, is revitalising agriculture," Chartres told SciDev.Net, pointing out that agriculture uses 70–80 per cent of water in many developing countries.
"As agricultural infrastructure gets more sophisticated, it should lead to better water management," he said.
"I think it is critical that we start investing in infrastructure that is going to help some of the smaller countries really build on their agricultural bases to lift their state of development. There is very good evidence in Sub-Saharan Africa, from a number of small economies, that they are totally dependent initially on agriculture — and their gross domestic product then goes up and down with rainfall in various years over the decades."
Chartres said he was confident that water use in agriculture can be reduced.
"Often there is a combination of factors causing poor crop yields. It may be lack of fertilisers, poor husbandry or agronomy, too much water or too little at the wrong time. There is great potential to improve the way we manage water and manage our crops, to pick up gains we know are quite possible. So that's why I'm optimistic."
Chartres mentioned India, where his institute is encouraging farmers to use surface water irrigation systems to recharge groundwater.
Excess water at the surface is siphoned down to replenish ground water, which is then pumped back up for use as necessary.
"We've already tried this in [Indian state of] Andhra Pradesh during the wet season," said Chartres.
But he said that considerable investment would be required in research and development, and in helping countries develop their agricultural economies.
Research would be the "easy part", Chartres said, citing the plans of the Consultative Group on International Agricultural Research (CGIAR), the international group of agricultural research donors, to lift its funding to around US$1.6 billion dollars.

- Sources tell Marbridge Consulting Alibaba (ABABA) is talking with Ctrip (CTRP +6.9%) about a possible investment.
- Alibaba took stakes in AutoNavi and Sina's Weibo microblogging platform last year. Marbridge's track record with investment/M&A rumors is mixed, but it has made some accurate calls in recent months.
- Ctrip has rallied above $55, and Chinese online travel rivals Qunar (QUNR +3.3%) and eLong (LONG +8.3%) are also posting sizable gains.
- Separately, the WSJ reports Chinese messaging/gaming giant Tencent (TCEHY) is looking to buy a stake in top Alibaba rival JD.com, which recently filed for a $1.5B IPO.

- On a good day for many tech momentum plays, solar and Chinese Internet stocks led the way.
- Solar names could be benefiting from Chinese government remarks suggesting Beijing remains open to trade talks to end its ongoing solar import dispute with the U.S. The comments come after the ITC added Chinese solar panels made with Taiwanese cells to its list of Chinese panels covered by import duties.
- Also: SunEdison (SUNE +6.6%) has filed for an IPO for its solar project business, a move that could entice other companies with major solar project ops to do the same.

- Chinese Internet stocks, crushed over the last few trading days amid SEC-related concerns and a general rout in tech momentum plays, are rebounding sharply today in tandem with other high-beta tech stocks.
- Possibly helping: The SEC has settled a dispute with Deloitte over its request for documents related to Longtop Financial, a Deloitte-audited Chinese firm suspected of accounting fraud. The settlement, which comes after the SEC received a "substantial volume" of requested docs, is fueling hopes the SEC's auditing ban on the Chinese arms of the big-4 accounting firms (including Deloitte) will be revoked, and a final resolution between U.S. and Chinese regulators achieved.
- Also: Morgan Stanley is calling the selloff a buying opportunity, and has picked five names it's a fan of - Baidu (BIDU +2.8%), YY (YY +14.5%), New Oriental (EDU +2.8%), Dangdang (DANG +6.8%), and Ctrip (CTRP +5.2%)..
- MS expects Baidu's margins (recently pressured by huge investments) to stabilize later this year with the help of accelerating sales growth; it's pleased with Ctrip's willingness to sacrifice near-term margins for share gains; it think Dangdang's e-commerce strategy is yielding margin improvement and better fulfillment efficiency; and it's a fan of YY's "sticky" user base and monetization potential (less than 2% of users are currently monetized).
- Major gainers include Sungy Mobile (GOMO +11.3%), 500.com (WBAI +18.3%), ChinaCache (CCIH +9.8%), Vipshop (VIPS +10%), Bitauto (BITA +9.5%), and Qunar Baidu-controlled (QUNR +8.8%).

- U.S. and Chinese Internet stocks are adding to last week's big losses, as investors continue taking profits following major 2013 gains. Chinese stocks were hit last week by an emerging markets selloff, weak PMI data, and an SEC ban (pending appeal) on audits from the Chinese units of big-4 U.S. accounting firms.
- Twitter (TWTR -8.2%), the company bears are most likely to point to when arguing a new Internet stock bubble has formed, is headlining the U.S. decliners. Shares are still up 25% from their post-IPO opening trade of $45.10.
- Other U.S. decliners: GOOG -3.1%. FB -2.9%. YELP -5.3%. Z -5.1%. LNKD -4.3%. P -3.2%. ANGI -4.1%. ZNGA -3.1%. GRPN -3.1%.

- SEC administrative law judge Cameron Elliot has barred the Chinese units of the Big-4 accounting firms - KPMG, Deloitte, PwC, and Ernst & Young - from auditing U.S.-listed companies for six months.
- Elliot declares the accounting firms "willfully" chose to withhold audit work papers from U.S. regulators for Chinese companies being investigated for accounted fraud. The firms have been worried about violating Chinese privacy laws by turning over the papers, and have argued the dispute needs to be resolved politically.
- Though the firms plan to appeal and say they can continue serving Chinese clients for now, shares of Chinese Web and solar names aren't handling the news well. Soft Chinese PMI data could be worsening matters.
- Chinese Web decliners: BIDU -2.5%. SOHU -3.2%. DANG -8.9%. SFUN -8.5%. PWRD -8.5%. QUNR -7.1%. LITB -6.5%. YY -6.1%. WUBA -6%. BITA -5.4%. EJ -5.9%. SINA -4.6%. LITB -6.5%. CTRP -5.4%. NQ -7.1%.
- Chinese solar decliners: TSL -8.7%. JASO -6.9%. SOL -6.3%. JKS -5.6%. CSIQ -5.4%. DQ -4.6%. YGE -5.6%. CSUN -6.2%. HSOL -7.8%.
- Qihoo (QIHU -4.6%) has joined the selloff in spite of a BrightWire report stating Alibaba (ABABA) has reached a deal to acquire a stake in the company. Marbridge Consulting reported two weeks ago Qihoo and Alibaba were in talks about a possible investment.

- A JPMorgan upgrade to Overweight has led Ctrip (CTRP +2.4%) to turn positive in the final 20 minutes of trading.
- CLSA downgraded the Chinese online travel firm last Friday, and UBS started them at Buy yesterday. Shares have been pressured by concerns about the sales/margin impact of heavy mobile promotions amid strong competition from Baidu-controlled Qunar.

- A CLSA downgrade to Underperform has led Ctrip (CTRP -5.5%) to add to its 2014 losses; shares are now down 23% YTD. Chinese online travel rival Qunar (QUNR -6.3%) is also off sharply.
- Ctrip and Qunar both fell hard yesterday as well. Concerns about the sales/margin pressure caused by strong promotional activity (particularly on mobile) could be a factor.

- Chinese online travel firms Ctrip (CTRP -12.6%) and Qunar (QUNR -12.1%), both of which have shown plenty of volatility in recent weeks, are each down sharply. A selloff in Chinese equities (followed the release of CPI/PPI data) could be playing a role.
- China's 86 Research is out with a note stating Qunar's adoption of mobile messaging leader Tencent's online payments platform, together with a related coupon promotion, could boost its mobile booking volumes as it contends with a Ctrip mobile promotion.
- Concerns about intense price competition/promotional activity in the Chinese online travel space have been around for a while.
- Ctrip is already down 21% in 2014. Shares fell sharply last Friday after Qunar provided upbeat air ticket bookings and mobile metrics.

News report
from the Asheville Citizen-Times, Clarke MorrisonA federal grand jury has indicted two more people in a massive fraud scheme involving the failed Seven Falls development.
Accountant George M. Gabler and appraiser Aaron Ollis are charged with conspiracy to commit bank fraud and aiding and abetting bank fraud in the 34-page superseding indictment filed this week in U.S. District Court in Asheville.
The document takes the place of an indictment handed down in April charging Seven Falls developer Keith Vinson and others in connection with the scheme. ...Read the full article

Sebastian Vettel put himself in line for a fourth straight Japanese Grand Prix pole position as the Red Bulls dominated final practice at Suzuka.
- Related Content
The German, looking to close a 29-point deficit to championship leader Fernando Alonso, has led the field away in each of the last three races here, and suggested a repeat was likely in qualifying as he topped the morning practice times with a lap of one minute 32.136 seconds.
His team-mate Mark Webber, quickest in Friday's running, was second, just over two-tenths of a second back.
McLaren have looked to be Red Bulls' closest rivals for victory this weekend, but they were not able to show their outright pace.
Jenson Button, still looking to recover after taking a wrong turn on set-up on Friday afternoon, could only manage the eighth-best time while Lewis Hamilton was 13th after a frightening incident late in the hour-long session.
The 2008 world champion, on his way to Mercedes next year, was on his quickest lap when he came across the dawdling Marussia of Charles Pic travelling slowly on the racing line on the entry to the chicane.
Hamilton's closing speed forced him to dramatically jink to his right to avoid a huge accident, and he quickly got on the radio to tell his team, "I want to let (race director) Charlie (Whiting) know just how dangerous that last corner was."
Felipe Massa, fighting to secure his future with Ferrari, was third quickest, ahead of Michael Schumacher in his Mercedes.
The Saubers of Sergio Perez and Kamui Kobayashi were fifth and sixth, ahead of Romain Grosjean and Button.
Paul Di Resta was ninth as he recovered from his costly off on Friday, with Pastor Maldonado rounding out the top 10.
Alonso could only manage 11th as Ferrari again struggle to get anywhere near Red Bull and McLaren, with his championship lead evaporating.
Nico Hulkenberg undid his good work of Friday, when he finished the day fourth, by crashing his Force India at the Degner curves, taking the front left corner off the car and leaving his mechanics with a lot of work to do to get him ready for qualifying.

12 oz. bottle was enjoyed this evening, on a very cold and blustery WI winter evening. Cool label. Digging the red snow shoes.
It poured a beautiful amber color, with a small foam head - and provided little lacing.
Smells of caramel and a hint of toasty malt. Not overwhelming by any means.
Solid carbonation, and medium bodied.
Heavy on the malts w/ caramel, fruity, toffee tastes on the front end. Finishing with definite hoppy character. Piney comes to mind with definite spice.
I have had many New Glarus beers that have been more memorable. This one was decent, but not one I would search out again on purpose.

12oz bottle, 347th day of 2013. Poured into a O'so snifter today, 2/15/2014.
App- Absolutely beautiful clear dark amber body. Nice 1 finger white head, good retention, nice thick white collar, good lacing
Smell- Floral hops, caramel, bread, biscuits. Smells a lot like an Oktoberfest, and smells very appealing.
Flavour- Caramel, bread. A little bit of banana, yeasty spices. Heavy on the malts. Not as interesting as it smells, but solid and not offensive at all.
Mouthfeel- Perfect carbonation, medium bodied. Aftertaste is the aforementioned faint yeasty spice. Very easy to drink.
Overall- Nice winter red ale, especially for its price and availability in Wisconsin. Nowhere near being Dan's best brews, but it's definitely a solid local red ale.

look: 4 | smell: 3.5 | taste: 3.75 | feel: 3.5 | overall: 3.5
Pours orange/reddish copper with a creamy off-white head. Lacing sticks.
The smell is of lightly roasted caramel, with some floral/tropical fruitiness.
The taste is sweet - towards caramel - roasty with slightly burnt notes weaving in and out. Juicy topical fruits add flavor without without becoming bitter.
It is a bit thin, but creamy. Alcohol warmth comes through.
A nice, warming, red ale.

Alan Alda. The Biography Channel website. 2014. Available at: http://www.biography.com/people/alan-alda-9179566. Accessed Mar 12, 2014.
Alan Alda was born on January 28, 1936, in New York City. He made his Broadway debut in 1959 and his film debut in 1963, but it was his role on the television series M*A*S*H (1972–83) that earned him his greatest popularity. Alda was nominated more than 20 times and won numerous awards for the series, which provided a showcase for his talents as a socially conscious writer, director and performer.
"There is an impression, I think, that M*A*S*H was making political statements a lot. I think it was rare that it ever happened. It was usually only a satirical swipe."
"There is a certain fear for me in acting, and it happens much earlier than opening night: it's when I'm in a chair, reading the script for the first time and wondering how I could possibly play such a part."
Early Life and Career
Born Alphonso Joseph D'Abruzzo on January 28, 1936, in New York City, Alan Alda is best known for his role as Hawkeye Pierce on the long-running television series M*A*S*H. He is the son of actor Robert Alda, and his first acting experiences were through his father. Alda first appeared on stage as a baby. But his childhood was more of a drama than a comedy. His mother was mentally unstable, and he suffered a bout of polio as a child.
Alda started out performing in a summer stock theater in Pennsylvania when he was 16 years old. While a student at New York's Fordham University, he spent some time studying abroad. There Alda made an appearance with his father on television. In 1959, he made his Broadway debut in Only in America. Alda then appeared in Purlie Victorious (1960) with Ruby Dee and Ossie Davis. A few years later, he made his film debut in the film version of Purlie Victorious, which was called Gone Are the Days (1963).
In 1964, Alan Alda received critical acclaim for his starring role in the play Fair Game for Lovers. More Broadway appearances followed on the next few years, in such productions as The Owl and the Pussycat and The Apple Tree. Near the end of the 1960s, Alda landed the starring role in the football comedy Paper Lion (1968), playing writer George Plimpton. He also starred in the drama Jenny (1970) with Marlo Thomas.
Debuting in 1972, the television series M*A*S*H went on to become one of the most popular situation comedies in TV history. Alda played the sarcastic, but tender-hearted surgeon Captain Benjamin Franklin Pierce, better known as "Hawkeye." Set during the Korea War, the series followed the misadventures of the staff of an army surgical unit.
Lasting for more than a decade, M*A*S*H gave Alda the opportunity to explore his full range of artistic talents. Not only did he act on the show, but he directed and wrote several episodes. Alda earned many honors for his work on M*A*S*H, including more than 20 Emmy Award nominations. He took home television's most coveted prize in several categories over the years, including for outstanding lead actor, outstanding directing and outstanding writing.
While on M*A*S*H, Alda found time to pursue other projects. He returned to the big screen with such films as Neil Simon's California Suite (1978) with Jane Fonda and Maggie Smith. Alda wrote and starred in the political drama The Seduction of Joe Tynan (1979) with Meryl Streep. Alda also worked in front of and behind the camera for the dramatic comedy The Four Seasons (1981) with Carol Burnett.

Celebrity Enlistees
Hollywood stars often get flack for their extravagant lifestyles, and sometimes they seem to be far removed from the rest of us. Not so for all celebrities, though—a surprising number of stars have taken on the big responsibility of serving in the United States Armed Forces. We know them as actors, athletes, musicians, and comedians, but these brave individuals have actually put their lives on the line for their country. Here's a look at celebrity enlistees.

Why Should You Train Your Dog?
A) So he'll listen when you tell him to do something B) So you can take him wherever you go C) So you can show off all kinds of neat tricks to your friends D) So you can enter fun competitions and maybe even win E) ALL OF THE ABOVE
Training is essential to having a good relationship with your dog. It's not just about tricks and showing off: it's about communicating with your pet so both of you are happier.
Sadly, many pets are relinquished every year for behavior problems. These problems can usually be fixed if people would take some time to train their dog. Remember, dogs don't know how you want them to act, you have to teach them!

Author Dan Haulman speaks about the history of the Tuskegee Airmen
A special evening with Dan Haulman, coauthor of the The Tuskegee Airmen, An Illustrated History: 1939-1949 on September 20.
Mr. Haulman will speak about the fascinating history of the Tuskegee Airmen and answer your questions. Copies of the book will be available for purchase at the event.
This event will take place in the Main branch auditorium on Tuesday, September 20 at 6:30 pm.
Please contact Luisa at lmorenilla [at] hmcpl [dot] org with any questions.
More about the book:
In The Tuskegee Airmen, An Illustrated History: 1939-1949, Air Force historians Joseph Caver, Jerome Ennels and Daniel Haulman chronicle the journey of the Airmen, including their training and combat missions, through nearly 300 captioned era photographs, many never before published.
Also included in this beautiful volume are rare depictions of the nonflyers who supported the Airmen: doctors, nurses, mechanics, navigators, weathermen, parachute riggers, and more. The book features a definitive chronology of missions flown by the Airmen.
In words and pictures, The Tuskegee Airmen, an Illustrated History 1939-1949 makes vivid the Airmen's story and the environments in which they lived, worked, played, fought, and sometimes died.

Ask any artist...sometimes space to create is more valuable than money. ArtsPlace and the Downtown Arts Center (DAC) - both managed by LexArts - provide high-quality performance and rehearsal space for artists and arts organizations to rehearse, perform and exhibit their work. The galleries at ArtsPlace and the DAC showcase the region's creative visual arts talent. Additionally, both ArtsPlace and the DAC offer office space to qualified arts organizations at affordable rental rates well below market cost. Arts organizations such as the Lexington Philharmonic, Lexington Ballet and Central Kentucky Youth Orchestras take advantage of this opportunity so that their limited resources might be spent on productions rather than on rent. Do you need space for a special event or celebration? Consider renting ArtsPlace for a truly unique experience. Through a unique partnership with the Lexington-Fayette Urban County Government, LexArts manages ArtsPlace and the DAC for the benefit of all people in Lexington and central Kentucky.

News Releases by Email
News Release
Tuesday, February 01, 2011
Media contact: Patricia Behnke, 850-251-2130
The Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission (FWC) is starting to develop management plans for 60 species currently listed as threatened or species of special concern in Florida. The FWC seeks information on the conservation needs of these species and any economic or social factors that should be considered in managing these species in Florida.
The FWC approved a new system in September 2010 for conserving and managing threatened species in Florida. The new system calls for conducting biological status reviews on all existing species on the state's threatened lists. The biological reviews are under way and in the process of being finalized. The new system also requires that management plans, tailored to the needs of the species, be created for each of the existing state-listed species. The information for the management plans will build on the data already received from the biological status reviews.
"When making conservation decisions for species, it is important that we understand social and economic impacts as well. With the help of the public and stakeholders, we can create the best conservation plans for Florida - plans that do not create unnecessary and unintended economic and social burdens," said Dr. Elsa Haubold, leader of the FWC's Species Conservation Planning Section. "A management plan is an important tool for providing guidance in how we manage a species, so we can remove it from the threatened species list or prevent it from getting back on the list, to ensure it will never face a high risk of extinction again."
Staff plans to make recommendations to the Commission in June on whether the reviewed species should be on Florida's threatened list or not. These recommendations will be based on the findings of the biological status reviews. Before a change in status is made, all reviewed species will have a management plan developed. The management plan will outline the conservation goal and objectives needed to improve or maintain the species, as well as determine actions required.
This step is just the first request for information from the public about what should be considered as the FWC initiates management planning with its stakeholders. The FWC will involve stakeholders throughout the entire management-planning process, which is expected to take two to three years for all 60 species.
"We cannot conserve wildlife or make decisions in a vacuum about how wildlife should be conserved," Haubold said. "We value public input, which leads to a better understanding and better decisions for Florida about the impacts of conservation choices on wildlife, the economy and society."
Information and data on any of the 60 species should be sent to:
Management Plans Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission 620 South Meridian St. Mail Station 2A Tallahassee, FL 32399-1600
or e-mailed to firstname.lastname@example.com.
Responses will be accepted until midnight Sunday, March 20.
If providing information on more than one species, clearly separate the sections of the response devoted to each species.
FWC Facts:Tribal societies in Central America, West Africa, Australia and Papua, New Guinea consider sawfish symbols of strength, spirituality and prosperity.

Over the last 15 or so years, increasing attention has been made to differentiating breast cancers from one another. For much longer, we have known about "ER or hormone positive or negative" cancers. Since pathology has expanded to always include whether a tumor is her2 positive or negative, a parallel thought has identified some tumors as being "triple negative." This means that the cells are ER negative, PR negative, and her2 negative. In terms of treatment, this means that none of the hormonal treatments will be useful; it also means that these cancers often respond especially well to chemotherapy.
This is from Living Beyond Breast Cancer, and will be of interest if this is your situation:
"Our Guide to Understanding Triple-Negative Breast Cancer, created in partnership with the Triple Negative Breast Cancer Foundation, offers helpful information, whether you have just been diagnosed or you are moving forward after treatment. Learn common terms your doctor may use and what might increase your risk for developing this type of breast cancer. Get the facts on treatments, and find out how to deal with myths about this diagnosis. If you finished treatment, sort through post-treatment concerns, including follow-up testing and managing the fear of recurrence. Read the experiences of real women affected by triple-negative breast cancer and tips from healthcare professionals. This guide was written with guidance from a team of health care professionals and women affected by breast cancer."

H ollywood pals of "Basketball Wives" reality TV personality Evelyn Lozada were not the least bit surprised when she filed for divorce from Chad "Ochocinco" Johnson earlier this week — as Johnson's life spiraled quickly downhill in the wake of an assault charge following a domestic spat with Lozada.
Already released by the Miami Dolphins, the former "Dancing With the Stars" contestant and his wife were told that VH1 was dropping the couple's "Ev and Ocho" reality series, already being produced but yet to air. According to a source close to Lozada, she phoned her attorney to file for divorce immediately after getting the word VH1 had jettisoned her new show. "She was really pissed. … Evelyn is all about fame and self-promotion, and once she realized that marriage [to Johnson] wasn't working to help that — she was out. … She's tough and could handle the abuse, though most of it with Chad was verbal. But she can't stand the chance of not being in the public eye anymore." The Oscar winner's many run-ins with American paparazzi has convinced her she can only find some modicum of privacy by finding protection under France's stringent anti-paparazzi regulation — something that does not exist here.
TV TALK: One never knows what will go viral thanks to YouTube. After online gossip Perez Hilton picked up on local attorney Shaun Sperling's 1992 bar mitzvah video — where he does a hilarious dance impression of Madonna's "Vogue" (sporting a drawing of the Material Girl on the back of his dress shirt), the video drew thousands of views. Sperling will guest on "Today" Saturday morning to chat about it all.
† Those hoping to hear "Come on down!" should head to the Chicago area contestant search for "The Price Is Right" at Savers, 1231 N. Gary Ave., Carol Stream, 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. Saturday. Two semi-finalists from that audition will be flown to Los Angeles — with one guaranteed a spot on contestants' row.
TUNE TIME: Music legend Dionne Warwick will be certain to draw a huge crowd at North Central College —performing two shows Oct. 6 and 7, part of her 50th anniversary tour.
† Chicago-bred band Kids These Days will be performing as the house band at VH1's "Do Something" Awards (airing at 8 p.m. Tuesday on VH1). The musicians, who previously performed on "Conan" and with Snoop Dogg, Kid Cudi, the Roots and George Clinton, will be part of the awards show honoring young activists for worthy causes — and featuring such celebs as Justin Bieber, Taylor Swift and Emma Stone.
The acclaimed rocker promises candid revelations about his suicide attempts, alcohol-fueled rampages and abusive childhood. Creed has sold more than 50 million albums around the globe.
BIG SCREEN BITS: North Shore native Edward Zwick is said to be close to inking a deal to direct "Pawn Sacrifice," a film about former chess prodigy Bobby Fischer and his troubled life that often wavered between genius and madness. Fischer's youthful winning of the world chess championship against Russian Boris Spassky — during the midst of the Cold War — made him an international phenomenon. In later years he faded from the scene and spent the rest of his life living overseas until his death in Iceland in 2008, shortly before his 65th birthday.
Reportedly on deck to play Fischer is ex-"Spider-Man" star Tobey Maguire.
† There's a lot of buzz about the upcoming "Grace of Monaco," starring Nicole Kidman as the Oscar-winning screen queen Grace Kelly who gave up Hollywood to become a real princess by marrying Monaco's Prince Rainier III. Tim Roth already has been cast as Rainier, but now it appears the couple's priest and close adviser, Father Tucker, will be played by Frank Langella.

Ref used for the flowers. I didn't know how it would turn out at first. I was just thinking of something magical, a fairytale landscape. I do like the final result. Something different as usual again.

well folks eagles have returned to the Remsen area several weeks ago. These photos help show us folks what magnificent creatures we have living so close by. Takes much planning and timing to capture their activities. I have some 90 pictures and videos compiled already this winter along with frost bitten fingers. Thanks to those people who help place food for these birds which helps bring them into camera range. I have seen as many as 8 eagles gathered around a feeding spot. Enjoy these 3 pictures folks and will post more later on. If you see us on the back roads of Remsen please slow down and please don't honk your horn at us. Till next time , GOOD DAY.
