A marathon runner and a sprinter. Which one do you want to look more like?
You want to get ripped right? Yesterday, I explained why aerobic training SUCKS for fat loss. Today I'm going to tell you what REALLY works, and what works fast.
It's really simple too — only two words, here they are…
Interval training!
Interval training is better for your health
Interval training is usually defined as hard-all out intervals (like sprinting) followed by brief, less intense intervals (like jogging). Work periods and rest periods vary depending on the protocol, but that's the idea. Get it? Intervals — now the name makes sense.
Next you should know that intervals are the best for your health, here's why:
- The famous tabata study: Researchers found that guys who used the routine five days a week for six weeks improved their maximum aerobic capacity (a measure of your body's ability to consume oxygen–the more oxygen you can take in, the longer and harder you'll be able to run) by 14%. What's more, it also improved anaerobic capacity (which measures your speed endurance, or the duration you're able to sprint at full effort) by 28%. Basically you get better all around results with intervals versus steady-state aerobics.
- Interval training can lower blood sugar by up to 40%. To put it into perspective, the commonly prescribed drug Metformin does so by a paltry 19% while putting users at risk of obesity, if they can tolerate the constant vomiting and diarrhea!
- Interval training makes your heart and lungs stronger not just bigger. Marathon runners keel over after marathons (look it up) even though their heart and lungs get enlarged — they're more stressed. Sprinters get strong hearts. Sprinting is better for you
- Interval training mimics life and is more functional endurance training. You ever picked up a heavy box for a slow steady state over 60 minutes? Hell No! You have to pick up a heavy box quick… change a tire… chase a kid down snatch him up and yell at him for running down the street. Everything you do in your every day life is anaerobic not aerobic. So Interval training is more functional
- Sprinting increases testosterone while aerobics lowers it. Although not a well designed study, Journal of Sports Sciences, Vol. 23, Issue 2, February 2005, pg. 187-188 (no abstract). Here they compare testosterone levels among different groups of males: Sprint Trained - 9.11 (ng/l), Endurance Trained - 7.05 (ng/l) and Sedentary - 8.19 (ng/l) Since this data is a cross-section, it does not establish cause-and-effect. In other words, it's possible that men with low testosterone self-select into endurance running, and men with high testosterone self-select into sprint running. However, this data is very suggestive that sprint training may increase testosterone in men. But logic plays a part here, since we know that staying in the gym longer than 45-60 minutes depletes T levels, it makes sense that long, steady-state aerobics would do the same.
- Sprinting increase Human Growth Hormone: In a new study, researchers compared growth hormone levels in several ways – resting, after a 6 second cycle sprint, and after 30 second cycle sprint. The 6 second sprint method did move HGH some, but didn't come close to the body's potential to release this powerful hormone. The 30 second all-out effort sprint experiment increased HGH by 530% over resting baseline and 450% over the lesser intensity sprint. (A summary of this study can be seen at the National Institutes of Health.)
Interval training is key to fast weight loss
Besides being VASTLY better for your health, Interval training burns more fat than aerobics too.
In fact, in the Tabata protocol mentioned above the Japanese scientists discovered that the people following the tabata protocol burned 9 TIMES MORE FAT than the group that exercised for an hour a day. And your metabolism stays revved up and burns more fat for up to 48 hours after the Tabata protocol.
A simple 12 minute program to lose weight fast
Basically you pick an exercise, I like sprints, but you can do jumping rope, cycling, etc. You have work intervals (sprints) followed by rest intervals (jogging).
Here's a simple program to use progressivity in the right direction. In the 12-minute program below, you're going to focus on gradually increasing the challenge as you progress over 4 weeks.
To aid in this effort, and to make your body accept the proper signal to gear up your metabolism, this program also simultaneously decreases the duration of the exercise period. This has synergistic power that will surprise you.
Weeks | Warm-up | Set 1 | Set 2 | Set 3 | |||
Exertion | Recovery | Exertion | Recovery | Exertion | Recovery | ||
1 | 3 min | 6 min | 3 min | ||||
2 | 2 min | 3 min | 2 min | 3 min | 2 min | ||
3 | 2 min | 2 min | 2 min | 2 min | 2 min | 2 min | 2 min |
4 | 3 min | 1 min | 2 min | 1 min | 2 min | 1 min | 2 min |
Notice the progressive feature of this workout. Over time, the duration of each exertion period decreases. You're going to be building up the intensity of your exertion intervals over the four weeks.
By week five you should be ready to do 1 min all out sprints, with a 1 minute recovery jog, for three sets, that's what I do now for fat loss 2-3 times a week. It works I'm ripped
So stop doing aerobics now and instead do intervals to increase your health and burn more fat, faster than ever before.

The provisions of the Nationwide policy that exclude coverage for damages caused by water are valid and enforceable terms of the insurance contract. Similar policy terms have been enforced with respect to damage caused by high water associated with hurricanes in many reported decisions.

British Facebook population hits 27 million
Facebook has revealed that the site's British population has climbed to 27 million, representing over two thirds of the country, with 19 million accessing it via their mobile device.
Facebook: UK users number 27 million
The figures, that come via Nielsen, have been released as part of a retail launch in which Facebook book is offering tips and advice to help retailers get the most out of Facebook.
Overall, Facebook has around one billion users worldwide and receives 3.2 billion likes or comments every day.
British Facebook users are among the most active and on average they spend almost seven hours a month connecting on the social network.
That is close to being four times the amount of time spent on any other website and equates to one in five minutes online being spent on Facebook.
In the UK women take the lead on Facebook. 51% of UK users are women and 25% are under 25. However, the over 50s audience is growing and now represents 30%.
If you have more than 130 Facebook friends then you are doing well as that is the average number of friends for Britain, while 71% of British smartphone users connect with their friends on Facebook every day.
At the younger end of the market 67% of 18- to 34-year-olds connect with their friends on Facebook several times a day. That puts Facebook consumption on a par with TV.
The comparison with TV is an increasingly relevant one particular in the UK as 62% use Facebook while watching TV.
Facebook claims that advertisers can reach more 18- to 34-year-olds through Facebook than through TV. The site's role as a social influencer is growing across the board and Facebook says it is able to tell that as many as 16% of users have made product purchases as a result of Facebook friend interactions.
We do other things based on friend's recommendations too – 23% have tried a new restaurant or bar, 36% have listened to new music and 37% of users ask their friends for product recommendations on Facebook.
While 19 million users in the UK access via their mobile device (or 62%) 26% access Facebook via a tablet.
Over 50% of 18- to 24-year-olds say it's the first things they access in the morning and the last thing they access at night, but the most active mobile time slot is midday for mobile and night time for tables. This is when 60% of all users are on Facebook, including 75% of young users.

Hi guys, iPad noob here. Loving getting to know my beautiful new toy, but still out of my comfort zone on many of the technical aspects.
Would love to be able to print from my iPad wirelessly to my Canon MP640 but am I correct in assuming it is not AirPrint enabled? How can I find out if it is, or if Canon are likely to update it? Is there any other way to print wirelessly from here?
Grateful for any assistance. Best russell140299

Conference Call
Beginning in 2009, several local governments have created speech restrictions governing speakers who discuss pregnancy. The laws vary—some expressly target speakers who refuse to refer or provide for abortions; others regulate certain speakers who "provide information about pregnancy" without being a medical professional. The laws require the regulated speakers to post a variety of disclaimers about credentials, services provided, and the government's recommendations for pregnant women.
To date, every court to consider these laws has found them either wholly or partly unconstitutional. The Second Circuit has recently heard an appeal of one such case, and this December the Fourth Circuit will consider a similar appeal en banc.
Join our two experts for a discussion of this issue.

A self-proclaimed master thief and her partner were arrested for theft at Bayshore Town Center in Glendale after an employee noticed glasses missing from the store.
According to the Glendale police report:
The man and woman, both 18 of Milwaukee, were arrested for theft at Sunglass Hut, 490 W. Northshore Drive, at 3:45 p.m. Dec. 28. An employee said they seemed to be "enthusiastic" to buy glasses and when she noticed some pairs missing from a display, she approached them but they fled the store.
When arrested, the woman said she was "a master thief," boasting that she steals all the time and was upset that this time she "slipped up." She also wanted police to thank the stores at Bayshore for allowing her to steal so easily.
She also said that stealing and selling what she stole was her only job. When told she was banned from the mall, she laughed and said she'd be back. The man, who was on probation and parole, was also banned and said he wouldn't return. Police called his parole officer and were told his probation would not be revoked for theft.
The couple had three pairs of glasses valued at $489, two taken from Sunglass Hut and one from LensCrafters.

What Hardware Do I Have?
First up is lshw. This utility LiSts HardWare (lshw). If you run it as a regular user, it actually warns you to run it as root. So go ahead and run sudo lshw. You should see screens of information for your system. The first section will be general information and should look something like this:
jbernard-eeepc description: Notebook product: 700 vendor: ASUSTeK Computer INC. version: 0129 serial: EeePC-1234567890 width: 32 bits capabilities: smbios-2.5 dmi-2.5 smp-1.4 smp configuration: boot=normal chassis=notebook ↪cpus=1 uuid=XXXXXX-XXXXX-XXXXX-XXXXX
This is what I get when I run it on my little ASUS EeePC. Right away you can find the manufacturer of this little beast (ASUSTeK), the BIOS version (0129), and the fact that it's a 32-bit machine with one CPU. More information is broken down into the following categories:
core firmware - motherboard and BIOS information cpu - CPU information cache - cache information memory - memory information bank - specific bank memory information pci - PCI bus information display - PCI display adapter multimedia - PCI audio adapter pci - other PCI devices network - PCI network adapter usb - USB devices ide - IDE information disk - individual disks volume - volumes on this disk
For an idea on how much information is available, the main memory section shows this about my EeePC:
*-memory description: System Memory physical id: 1f slot: System board or motherboard size: 512MiB *-bank description: DIMM DDR2 Synchronous 400 MHz (2.5 ns) product: PartNum0 vendor: Manufacturer0 physical id: 0 serial: SerNum0 slot: DIMM0 size: 512MiB width: 64 bits clock: 400MHz (2.5ns)
This utility is basically an all-in-one tool that spits out everything on your system in one go. But, what if you want information only about specific subsystems in your machine? An entire suite of utilities exists for this, and they might be more useful when you need some specific piece of information or want to do some system querying in a script.
You may want to look at the CPU. The lscpu utility provides output similar to the following:
Architecture: i686 CPU op-mode(s): 32-bit CPU(s): 1 Thread(s) per core: 1 Core(s) per socket: 1 CPU socket(s): 1 Vendor ID: GenuineIntel CPU family: 6 Model: 13 Stepping: 8 CPU MHz: 571.427
From this, you can see the manufacturer, whether it's 32-bit or 64-bit, the exact version and model, as well as the current CPU frequency.
If you want to know whether your video card is supported by X11, or whether you need to find a third-party driver, you can use lspci. This utility gives a list of all the devices plugged in to your PCI bus. The output looks something like this:
00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation ↪Mobile 915GM/GMS/910GML Express Graphics Controller (rev 04) 00:02.1 Display controller: Intel Corporation ↪Mobile 915GM/GMS/910GML Express Graphics Controller (rev 04)
This information shows that the video controller in my EeePC is an Intel controller. So, if you wanted, you now could search Google with this information to learn about your video card and how best to configure it. If you want to see what USB devices are on your system, use lsusb. On my EeePC, I have an SD card installed, and it shows up as this:
Bus 001 Device 002: ID 0951:1606 Kingston Technology
If you're interested in the disk subsystem, you can find out what your system has with the blkid utility. This utility prints out all the available filesystems, with the following output format:
/dev/sda1: UUID="XXXXXXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXXXXXXXXXX" TYPE="ext2" /dev/sda2: UUID="XXXXXXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXXXXXXXXXX" TYPE="swap" /dev/sda3: UUID="XXXXXXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXXXXXXXXXX" TYPE="ext2" /dev/sdb1: UUID="XXXXXXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXXXXXXXXXX" TYPE="ext2"
With this utility, you can learn what devices are available and what filesystems are being used on them. The associated UUIDs also are available if you want to use them in the entries in /etc/fstab.
Now that you know what kind of hardware you have on your system, the last thing to check is to see whether your kernel actually is using the available hardware. On most modern distributions, the kernel is compiled to use modules. You can check to see which modules are loaded by using the lsmod command. You will get a list that looks like this:
agpgart 31788 2 drm,intel_agp lp 7028 0 video 17375 1 i915 output 1871 1 video
You can see that the agpgart module has a size of 31788 bytes and is used by the drm and intel_agp modules.
Now, hopefully, you can configure and optimize your hardware so that you get the most out of it. If you find other utilities not covered here, I would love to hear about them.

lspci & /proc/cpuinfo
It's nice to have that sort of stuff but for most I suspect lspci & lsusb will suffice, especially if they just want to know what chip they need to find a driver for.
cat /proc/cpuinfo will tell you what your processor is and what it's capable of, and free -m will tell you roughly how much RAM you have, (top left figure) in Megabytes.

Linux has become a key foundation for supporting today's rapidly growing IT environments. Linux is being used to deploy business applications and databases, trading on its reputation as a low-cost operating environment. For many IT organizations, Linux is a mainstay for deploying Web servers and has evolved from handling basic file, print, and utility workloads to running mission-critical applications and databases, physically, virtually, and in the cloud. As Linux grows in importance in terms of value to the business, managing Linux environments to high standards of service quality — availability, security, and performance — becomes an essential requirement for business success.

1 pinch sugar
3 large garlic cloves, thickly sliced
1 1/2 teaspoons ground ginger
1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg
1/8 teaspoon cayenne pepper
3 cups chicken broth, homemade or from a carton or can
1 1/2 cups half-and-half (or whole milk)
Salt and freshly ground pepper, to taste
Garnish: chopped honey-roasted peanuts
I made this for a light Christmas lunch and everyone loved it! Even my mother-in-law wanted the recipe! (She usually does all the cooking) I was proud of this soup and will serve it again for a special occasion.
If I could have given this 3 and 1/2 stars, I would have. I liked it, but I thought there was just a little too much ginger and nutmeg. My husband thought it tasted like pumpkin pie soup! I will definitely make this again, but with reduced nutmeg and ginger. I think I'd also add some cumin, just to try it.

Wonderful! Smooth, spicy soup. Just the right amount of zip. I love it! 1-1/2 pounds is basically 2 medium sweet potatoes, and around 4 cups cubed.
An excellent soup. I tried this hoping it would be like the soup at a local restaurant. I added some extra cayenne for some kick and it was just like the restaurant. Rave reviews from my husband, too.
This was good, but we liked the left-overs even more with two easy additions. I thought the soup needed a little something, so I added a teaspoon of curry powder and a couple tablespoons of peanut butter to the remaining soup. It was excellent!
This is the best soup I have ever made. Seriously. It was exactly what I wanted it to be...creamy, sweet, with a little spice. YUM. My husband couldn't get enough...he said it was absolutely delicious. This recipe is definitely a keeper. Thanks!
A wonderful, savory soup. I added about an 1/8 teaspoon of cardamom, and substituted a 12 ounce can of non-fat evaporated milk for the half-n-half. Don't skimp on the onion and garlic!
This is an awesome recipe. I have a friend that just raves about it. I have had to make it for her several times now. I really like that it is relativly simple. I also think that the honey roasted peanuts really add something to this dish. Thank you for this recipe.

Mr Puzzle - We've got puzzles!
Price: Start with the centre position emply and balls on all other positions on the board. The object of the Solitaire puzzle, often known as Peg Solitaire to distinguish it from the card game also called Solitaire, is to remove the balls one after the other by jumping horizontally or vertically over another ball. In the end one ball should be left in the centre hole. Solitaire may be much older than generally thought. Most sources have it's origins in France as early as the late 1600's however the Roman poet Ovide wrote about the game in his book "Ars Amatoria". Europeans then rediscovered Solitaire around the 12th century with a game called "Al-qirq" (the mill, in Arabic), which later became the game of "Alquerque". So who knows exactly how old it could be? Peg Solitaire is named Solitaire in French, Solitario alla francese in Italian, Resta um in Portuguese, Solitär or Solohalma in German, Solitaris in Lituanian, Samotnik in Polish. Size: Diameter of the board is 300mm made from Sheesham wood with large white marble balls.

Specificity / Sensitivity
Rab3A (D7B10) Rabbit mAb recognizes endogenous levels of total Rab3A protein.
Source / Purification
Monoclonal antibody is produced by immunizing animals with a synthetic peptide corresponding to residues surrounding Arg149 of human Rab3A protein.
The Rab family of proteins includes small, monomeric GTPases essential for regulating intracellular vesicle trafficking. Members of the Rab3 subfamily, including Rab3A-3D, are involved in the exocytosis of neurotransmitters and hormones (1). Rab3A is primarily expressed in neurons (2), neuroendocrine cells (such as rat PC-12 cells), and in human pancreatic β cells (3,4). By acting as a molecular switch between active GTP-bound Rab3A and the inactive GDP-bound form, Rab3A inhibits synaptic vesicle and chromaffin granule secretion during late membrane release (5,6). Loss-of-function studies suggest Rab3A is involved in controlling synaptic vesicle targeting and docking at the active zone (7). Through binding to its direct effector Rabphillin, Rab3A also orchestrates the coupling between synaptic vesicle exocytosis and endocytosis (8).

Frank Pignanelli & LaVarr Webb: Here is why politics and Days of '47 Parade don't mix
For some strange reason, the Days of '47 Parade Committee has never liked mixing pioneers and politics. Politically-oriented floats have been banned from the big July 24 parade.
It probably goes back to the days when Brother Brigham rode in the parade with a sign saying, "Vote for Brigham for Territorial Governor — or receive a call to settle Panaca."
True, prominent incumbents can ride in the parade and wave at the crowd, but nothing politically overt is allowed. The no-politics rule, however, hasn't prevented politicians and organizations from proposing floats and themes. Here are some that have been rejected by the committee:
Mitt Romney applied for a float permit displaying a full-size cardboard cutout of President Obama holding a sign saying, "You didn't build Zion . . . somebody else made that happen."
President Obama wanted to enter a float with a big sign saying, "Mitt Romney: He outsources jobs, shuts down businesses — and swears at Utah Olympics volunteers."
Salt Lake City Mayor Ralph Becker wanted to dress as an English nanny, leading an army of bicyclists holding banners proclaiming, "Welcome to Salt Lake City. Please do not idle your car, seek cheap parking, drive in a bike lane, eat red meat, cross the street without an orange flag, say anything politically incorrect, drink bottled water, hope for lower taxes, consume sugar, shop online or otherwise conduct yourself like you're from the suburbs. But, hey, have fun!"
Sen. Orrin Hatch really wanted a float portraying himself as Captain America (born in the 1930s but in peak fighting form in 2012) hoisting a shield made of music CDs and nutritional supplements, with a banner proclaiming, "Orrin 2012 — Meaner, tougher and hungrier than ever, ready to slay another Democratic president from outer space!"
Hatch's Democratic challenger Scott Howell, demanding to debate Hatch in every county in Utah, wanted to feature his boxing theme. He requested a float with himself in boxing shorts and gloves, demonstrating fancy footwork among pugilistic banners: "I'll send Hatch to St. Peter in Cedar." "I'll use a cleaver in Beaver." "I'll give him the jab in Kanab." And, of course, "The thrilla in Tooele."
Gov. Gary Herbert proposed a float with a "Gary Against the World" theme, featuring himself as Orrin Porter Rockwell, doing battle with right-wingers, left-wingers, federal bureaucrats, radical environmentalists and people who start fires.
Democratic gubernatorial candidate Peter Cooke wanted to wear his two-star general, Army Reserve uniform, surrounded by other costumed soldiers, with the slogan "Cooke declares war on Republican mismanagement: political imbalance, huge fireworks, large class sizes and out-of-control wildfires."
Eagle Forum Pres. Gayle Ruzicka wanted her entire family and followers in pioneer garb atop a float with the banner, "Holding firm to 1847 culture in 2012 and beyond."
Brandie Balken, president of Equality Utah (Utah's largest gay and lesbian advocacy group) wanted to stand on a huge pedestal on a float over a banner that reads, "Welcome to Salt Lake City … this is the place … and we own it."
Utah Democratic Chair Jim Dabakis wanted to sit among the number of volunteers filling sandbags below the banner, "If ye are prepared, ye shall not fear." Utah Democrats are ready for the Romney Tsunami."
Utah Republican Chair Thomas Wright wanted to dress in a seagull costume, shouting, "Democrats are the crickets … Republicans are the seagulls!"

Well, Phoenix Coyotes fans, I have some good news. The Nashville Predators do not have forwards that are quite as seemingly offensively gifted as Chicago...no Toews, Kane, Sharp, Hossa, Stalberg rolling in a seeming endless cycle for 60 minutes in this series. Which isn't to say that Nashville isn't talented up front, because they have some pretty good forwards as we will discuss after the jump. But I think this match-up is a lot closer than the last series was, and that's a very good thing.
The goal for the Coyotes will remain the same, though - keep these forwards off of the scoreboard as much as possible and counterstrike as opportunities present themselves. Unlike Chicago, however, Nashville will probably take a very similar approach to this series.
1st Line:
Nashville's top offensive unit features one half of the Kostitsyn brothers, Mr. Carrie Underwood and noted Coyotes killer Martin Erat. All three possess offensive firepower and had fairly good seasons for Nashville. Although the line hasn't quite gotten going in the postseason thus far - Kostitsyn (1G, 0A, -2), Fisher (0G, 2A, -1), Erat (0G, 2A, +1) - they were a fairly dynamic trio against the Coyotes in the regular season with Erat leading all Nashville players in scoring against the Coyotes with 1G and 3A. It's not quite as dangerous as Chicago's top line, but they are less inclined to run and gun as well. Wouldn't be surprised to see Tippett matching this unit against the Prime Line.
2nd Line:
This is the line that has been getting things done for the Preds so far in the playoffs - Radulov (1G, 4A, +5), Legwand (2G, 2A, +5), Bourque (3G, 1A, +5) - and it's one that the Coyotes haven't really seen before as Radulov re-joined the Preds from the KHL after the season series was already over and Bourque only appeared in one of the games. Legwand, on the other hand, is another guy that has frustrated the 'Yotes over the years. Tippett will be watching a lot of film on these guys and devising strategies for how to keep them off the scoresheet. My guess is that those plans include a healthy dose of the Pyatt - Gordon - Korpikoski unit with Klesla and Aucoin on the blue line.
3rd Line:
It's the other half of the mafia brothers, a young center I admittedly no very little about, and a guy that commenters from On the Forecheck believe will wreak havoc in Mike Smith's crease during the series. Kostitsyn and Spaling were held scoreless during the regular season series with the Coyotes (1 game and 3 games, respectively), while Hornqvist had 1 goal and 1 assist. During the playoffs, the line has contributed a little, but nothing like the second unit thus far - Kostitsyn (1G, 1A +2), Spaling (0G, 2A, +3), Hornqvist (0G, 1A, +2). This isn't really a traditional checking line, but they'll contribute the timely goal on occasion. I'd expect to see the Boedker - Vermette - Doan line matched up against this unit.
4th Line:
Tootoo is really a wildcard in this unit and is as likely to be a spot filled with one of the guys discussed below, but he's the most recognizable guy of the bunch from my perspective, so I included him here. I also HATE Jordin Tootoo because he's a weasel like pest who is prone for playing a bit dirty, but hopefully we won't see any of that in this series. Gaustad and Yip are newer additions to the Preds line-up and the Coyotes have not seen much, if any, from these guys with Nasvhille. They've been decent in the playoffs so far, but it's with limited ice time - Gaustad (1G, 1A, even), Yip (0G, 1A, -1). Gaustad will kill lots of penalties along with Spaling and he's one of their go to faceoff guys. I wouldn't expect to see this line as a unit for more than 5-6 minutes per game. I don't expect as much from this unit as I do from the Coyotes 4th line and it is probably the most glaring mismatch of any of the units.
Matt Halischuk actually got in more of the playoff games than Tootoo (3 games, 1 assist), and will likely see time on the fourth unit. Craig Smith also appeared in one of the first round games and had a big regular season against the Coyotes, may also see some time on the fourth line.

At the White House this afternoon, spokesman Jay Carney said the U.S. is "highly skeptical" of the comments made over the weekend by international prosecutor Carla del Ponte, who said there are "strong, concrete suspicions but not yet incontrovertible proof" that rebels in Syria have used sarin gas.
We've been covering del Ponte's comments, and the reaction to them, through the day. Scroll down to see an earlier update and our original post.
A lawsuit by an out-of-state company that challenges a tax break on capital gains for Oklahoma-based businesses is causing some concern at the state Capitol.
An analysis on the potential costs of a tax reimbursement show Oklahoma could be on the hook for as much as $480 million if the court rules in favor of tax payers.
Republican State Rep. Jeff Hickman raised the issue during questions on a tax cut bill approved by the House last week. But budget negotiators said any repercussions of the capital gains issue should be worked out apart from the state budget.
Tis the season ... when we check the forecasts, make sure the batteries in the radios are good, and rehearse safety plans with the family and our neighbors. Tornado season is here.

OKLAHOMA CITY (AP) - Late timing and skepticism among legislators have pushed into next year an effort by Oklahoma Gov. Mary Fallin and Treasurer Ken Miller to consolidate the state's pension boards.
The plan would combine the administration boards of Oklahoma's seven pension systems, which cover more than 200,000 teachers, judges, police and other employees and retirees. The pensions' funds would be kept separate. The governor says the change would save millions of dollars.

U.S. and other diplomatic officials say discussions within the Obama administration in favor of providing arms to the Syrian rebels are gaining ground amid new indications that President Bashar Assad's regime may have launched additional chemical weapons attacks.
Joshua Landis, the Director of the Center for Middle East Studies at the University of Oklahoma, says eliminating Syria's air defenses would be the first step before inspectors could determine if the regime did indeed use chemical weapons.
"Once you've destroyed the Syrian military, you're in Iraq in a sense," Landis says. "We were criticized in Iraq because we only had 100,000 troops to protect an entire country."

After six long months, the Mats Sundin saga is finally over as the unrestricted free agent has agreed to a one-year contract with the Vancouver Canucks.
"I am truly excited to be joining the Canucks," said Sundin in a team statement. "Once I made the decision to return to play a few weeks ago, the Vancouver opportunity was simply the best overall fit. I want to thank Mike Gillis and the entire Canucks organization for their professionalism throughout this entire process."
The signing ended months of rumours and speculation around the coveted centre, who was undecided on whether or not he would return to the National Hockey League for an 18th season.
While the Canucks certainly become a better team with Sundin, general manager Mike Gillis stopped short of calling them a championship-calibre club.
"I don't think I would be comfortable calling any team a contender other than San Jose and Detroit," Gillis told reporters. "What we want to do is get in the playoffs and win round-by-round. For me, it's the process of how the team plays and the integrity it plays with. I know we will get results if we play that way.
"I think Mats is a great player that joins a good group of players that are committed to winning. I think we are a better team for sure. I am not going to place that label (contender) on any team."
With the NHL's holiday roster freeze beginning Friday, the earliest Sundin can join the Canucks is Dec. 27.
The Montreal Canadiens were given exclusive rights to talk to Sundin this past summer in the week leading up to the free agent signing period. The club's negotiating window passed without an agreement and as many as six NHL teams lined up to acquire his services.
Among the teams interested over the last six months were the Canadiens, Canucks, Chicago Blackhawks, Philadelphia Flyers, Ottawa Senators, Toronto Maple Leafs and New York Rangers.
The Canucks had the most lucrative offer for Sundin, with a two-year, $20 million contract that was never pulled off on the table.
Sundin, 37, finished with 32 goals and 46 assists for 78 points in 74 games last season with the Leafs, leading Toronto in scoring for the fourth straight year.
The franchise leader in goals and points, he has played 13 of his 17 NHL campaigns with the Maple Leafs, who acquired him from the Quebec Nordiques in 1994.
Sundin has 555 goals and 1,321 points in 1,305 career NHL games since he was drafted first overall by Quebec in 1989. He re-wrote Toronto's record book over his 13 seasons in blue and white, scoring 420 goals and a franchise-best 987 points.
In 83 playoff games, Sundin has scored 35 goals and 74 points, with all but four of those points coming in a Leafs uniform. The two-time second-team NHL All-Star also won a gold medal with Team Sweden at the Torino Olympics in 2006.
Martin St. Louis is a Ranger, Matt Moulson is a member of the Minnesota Wild and the Montreal Canadiens have Thomas Vanek. Look back at all the big name deals that went down.

If you still have a job, the bad economy probably feels like a lump in your throat.
If, on the other hand, you don't have a job and you can't pay your bills, it might feel like someone is menacing your throat with a knife.
Back in the mid-1920s, a group of Chattanooga women saw the ranks of the poor growing here, a trend that was later amplified by the Great Depression. They were saddened by ramshackle housing along the Tennessee River, and they quietly gave birth to one of Chattanooga's oldest charities, Northside Neighborhood House.
Eighty-seven years later, as the aftermath of the Great Recession continues to grind Chattanooga's poor and middle-class families, times are hard again.
Northside Neighborhood House, which gets most of its funding from two thrift stores and a modest yearly United Way grant, provides "education, financial support and basic staples (like food, toys and clothing)" for Chattanooga families living north of the river, a territory stretching from North Shore neighborhoods to Sale Creek.
First-time requests for help at Northside Neighborhood house are up nearly 100 percent a year from prerecession levels in 2005, leaders there say.
For the most part, these are not people caught in chronic poverty but people from middle-class communities such as Hixson, Red Bank and Soddy-Daisy who have lost jobs or who have been crushed by medical expenses or home foreclosures.
Look through the case files and you'll find:
* A laid-off electrical worker who got help paying his utility bill.
* An unemployed dad who asked for help with some Christmas toys for his son.
* An underinsured heart patient raising two grandchildren who needed his natural gas reconnected.
* A working middle-class family in bankruptcy, due to massive medical bills, slammed by a $643 utility bill.
"We have tons of people who are coming to us saying, 'We always gave. We never thought we'd need to be on the receiving end,'" said Rachel Gammon, executive director of the social-service charity.
The organization's yearly budget is $648,000. Most of the direct help is parceled out in small gifts of about $100 to help people pay utility bills. (They must always pay a share, too.)
Northside Neighborhood House thrift stores are located at 209 Minor St. (423-756-0530) in North Chattanooga and at 241 Signal Mountain Road (423-386-5811). Merchandise donations, gently used clothes and household items, are accepted Monday through Saturday. Call for times. To donate money, write Northside Neighborhood House, P.O. Box 4086, 221 Minor St. Chattanooga, TN 37405. Website: www.nnhouse.org.
Before the Great Recession, Gammon said, most of these folks would have gotten temporary help from friends or relatives.
"Now those family and friends are struggling, too," she said.
Besides direct aid, Northside Neighborhood House also provides educational services, in the spirit of the founders in 1924 who didn't just hand out quilts but, instead, taught poor women to sew.
Northside provides GED classes, and last year helped 15 people get a high-school equivalency diploma. Credit counseling is also available for people who need help managing their bills.
Thankfully, the number of people requesting first-time help appears to have reached a plateau this year, Gammon said. Many recipients of help have pledged to return as donors and volunteers when times improve, she said.
The organization's motto is: "A hand up, not a hand out." This is the way America is supposed to work.

Internships and Studying Abroad
Life in the world beyond the campus provides students with invaluable experiences that complement their programs of study. The experiential learning requirement may be fulfilled through participation in a study abroad program (minimum of three credits and a five-week stay) or through an internship experience (minimum of three credits and 120 hours of internship experience – each credit equaling 40 hours of internship experience). All Wilkes Honors College students –including international and transfer students – are required to participate in an experiential learning program. All internship and study abroad programs must be approved by the non-classroom learning committee prior to student registration.
Click here to view a list of internship opportunities.
Note: Internship Deadlines |
How Do I Find an Internship?Begin with some preliminary research. Check the bulletin boards around campus, weekly emails, and the News/Events page. Talk to fellow students who have completed internships. Discuss potential internships with your faculty advisor or another faculty member. Consult the online list of internship opportunities. Finally, meet with David Flanigan about available internships. How do I Sign Up for an Internship?Students who wish to participate in an internship must submit an online internship proposal form. Once the form is approved by the faculty non-classroom learning committee, you will submit the contract to Dr. Monica Maldonado, Associate Director of Honors College Student Activities. The contract includes a number of forms and important details about individual internship programs and should be read carefully. Before submitting an online proposal, you will need to decide on an academic component with your faculty advisor. The academic component should include discipline-specific reading and writing, typically totaling 6-10 pages for a 3 credit internship. Acceptable writing examples might include a substantial paper completed at the end of the internship, such as a literature review, or smaller writing assignments completed throughout the internship, such as weekly essays reflecting on series of readings and their applicability to the internship. Writing requirements may also be satisfied by products of your work at the internship, such as a draft of a manuscript, a conference paper or poster, a lab report or protocol, or brochures or other materials you develop. Your faculty advisor should approve your proposal before you submit it to the non-classroom learning committee. A sample proposal form is online. To ensure that your online proposal is approved, be sure to fill out each part of the online form accurately. Remember that unpaid internships require 40 hours for each credit hour; paid internships require 60 hours for each credit hour. Be sure to include the number of pages of your written requirement, the location of the internship, contact info for your onsite supervisor, and indicate that you will do appropriate readings selected by you and your advisor as part of the academic component of your internship (e.g. "x" number of books and/or "y" number of articles on topic "z;" if possible, you may include specific titles). If you fail to include these items, your proposal will be sent back to you for revision. Once the on-line proposal is approved, you will receive approval notification and then submit the contract. The contract includes (I) a general info form, (II) contract, (III) consent/release form, and (IV) agreement form, all of which must be submitted to Dr. Monica Maldonado, Associate Director of Honors College Student Activities by the deadline. It also includes (V) an evaluation form that will be completed by your onsite supervisor after the internship is completed, and then submitted to your faculty advisor. Please note that the internship forms must be signed by you, your internship supervisor, and your faculty advisor. Your faculty advisor will then request an internship section and give you permission to enroll. Course numbers for internships include:
Application GuidelinesWhen you are ready to apply, please follow these guidelines:
DEADLINESOnline proposal forms must be submitted prior to the advance registration period for the semester of the internship. This is typically the start of April for Summer/Fall semesters, and mid-November for Spring semester. For example, if you plan to do an internship in Spring 2014, submit the online form prior to the start of November 2013 advance registration. If you plan to start an internship during the Summer or Fall of 2014, submit the online form prior to the start of April, 2014 advance registration. (See the FAU calendar for dates of advance registration.) Completed contracts should be submitted as soon as the signatures are secured but must be received no later than the start of the internship or the first day of the semester in which the internship is taken, whichever is sooner. You may not receive credit for internships started without completing the proper paperwork. |
Study AbroadStudying abroad for a summer, semester, or year may be that defining moment in your educational career that will change your life forever and influence how you live your life. Studying abroad allows you to explore another culture, learn another language, try new foods, discover new sports, realize a new career path, impress potential employers, make new friends, and go on an amazing adventure! Honors College students have studied abroad in countries including Australia, Canada, Chile, Costa Rica, Czech Republic, Dominican Republic, Ecuador, England, Finland, France, Germany, Ghana, India, Italy, Japan, Morocco, New Zealand, Poland, Russia, South Korea, Spain, Sweden, Tanzania, Venezuela, and Vietnam. How do I plan for my Study Abroad Experience?The Honors College (HC), in partnership with the Office of International Programs (OIP), helps HC students add an overseas study abroad experience to their FAU degree. Honors College students must complete at least five weeks abroad (total time spent abroad in the program) and earn at least 3 academic credits from FAU or another approved, accredited institution in order to fulfill the non-classroom learning experience requirement. Students interested in studying abroad are strongly encouraged to begin planning a year to six months prior to the semester they wish to go abroad. Below are some helpful guidelines to help you get started on your path. Note: International students must also consult with the Office of Diversity Services to learn of immigration requirements for study abroad. For further information, contact the Office of Diversity Services (SR 117, 561-799-8585).
The Office of International Programs will work with the FAU Registrar's Office to ensure that your credits and grades are appropriately posted on the FAU transcript. A copy of the transcript will be forwarded to the Honors College for your file. Additional Information for Flagler ScholarsFlagler Scholars are required to complete a study abroad experience before their senior year, and they should follow the specific guidelines for the Flagler Study Abroad Enrichment Program. For further questions regarding course registration, expense reimbursement, and other aspects related to specific requirements, contact David Flanigan, Director of Academic Support Services (HC 132, 561-799-8622. |
Core / Concentration RequirementsAll coursework taken abroad must be pre-approved by the student's faculty advisor in order to ensure that these courses fulfill Honors College core, concentration or other requirements. Course EnrollmentAll study abroad must be coordinated through OIP. Students must complete a Study Abroad Application, including all supporting documentation and the application fee. Students enrolled in FAU exchange and faculty-led programs are registered for the appropriate study abroad courses through the Office of International Programs. Students who choose study abroad programs offered through direct enrollment at other universities or program providers are responsible for requesting transcripts to be sent to the Office of International Programs upon completing their study abroad program.
Eligibility for HC Scholarship and other Financial AidThe Honors College Scholarship is given only to students enrolled full-time in HC courses during the fall and spring semesters. Students who study abroad in the fall or spring semesters or for an entire academic year and want to use their HC scholarship are required to dual-enroll in HC study abroad courses. Students who dual-enroll during fall and spring can use the HC scholarship to pay for their HC study abroad courses. Students who choose not to dual-enroll during the fall or spring semesters will not receive their HC scholarship. Students may use Bright Futures and other sources of federal financial aid (such as loans) if they enroll in a study abroad program through another accredited institution in Florida. Students who enroll through study abroad programs outside of Florida cannot use Bright Futures, but may be eligible for other types of federal financial aid. These are general guidelines, and students are responsible for checking with the Office of Financial Aid regarding the use of financial aid for various study abroad programs.

Mind the IT Skills Gap and the STEM Cliff!
March 4th, 2013 By: Industry Perspectives
Bob Supnik is vice president of engineering and supply chain for Unisys Corporation. He is also directly responsible for software and hardware development.
UnisysIn discussions with customers' IT executives – especially those whose data centers rely on mainframes – one often hears demographics and aging IT staff as recurring themes. In many organizations, key technical staff members are retiring or nearing retirement, and it's difficult to find replacement staffers with the right skills.
This skills gap is part of a trend in the larger STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics) workforce in the United States. According to one study, half of the STEM workers in this country will retire in the next 10 years.
However, the demographic "time bomb" is about more than the loss of programmers who know COBOL or of test engineers who know transaction processing. There's also been a major shift in how companies organize their IT staffs, and this has implications for supporting mainframe environments and related business applications.
Programmer-analysts designed many organizations' business-critical applications. These analysts are not only on the verge of retirement, but are also very difficult to replace. That's not just because they have skills in legacy technologies, but also because IT departments separated the roles of business analyst and programmer a long time ago and can't find people who do both.
For IT, Age Isn't Just a Number
Historically, customers who came to IT firms with a problem to solve expected that the programming team would master the relevant business case, processes and technical issues and specify a comprehensive solution, from specification to design and, ultimately, code.
This "community" approach extended all the way through the IT organization. The task of mastering the customer's world was everyone's responsibility, so that the resulting system would be a coherent and consistent solution to the initial problem.
Of course, the industry has progressed and has taken a more streamlined approach to applications programming. The world has become infinitely more complex, and factors such as global competition, new technologies and regulations make it unrealistic to expect every programmer to understand every nuance of a business process.
The new approach resembles an assembly line, where everyone has a specific role. Analysts create specifications for new applications and develop use cases. Architects and designers decompose the use cases into an overall structure and individual functions. Programmers write and unit-test the functions. Integration testers put the pieces together and test sub-assemblies and the whole application against the use cases that the analysts provide.
The Culture Factor
This change in programmer-analyst roles has an even more radical analogue in changing generational cultural attitudes, which spill over into IT.
For example, veteran Unisys engineers continually work to enhance the security in the operating environment of our ClearPath systems because, as one recently said, doing so "is in our DNA." From long experience, he understood that one careless programmer can undermine the security integrity of an entire system.
That response raises the sometimes profound differences in cultural attitudes between generations – which can often manifest themselves as work style differences.
For example, Millennials, today's youngest workers, can demonstrate profoundly different attitudes from their older Boomer co-workers on matters such as IT security.
The Millennials grew up in a consumer-focused world full of social networking sites and search engines, where security implementation is a secondary concern. At a recent event with a largely Millennial audience, one of our engineers asked how many in the room worried about the security and privacy implications of FaceBook and Google Apps. Only one Millennial raised her hand; all but one of the Unisys engineers raised theirs.
Dealing with Demographic Destiny
So, what must organizations do to sustain the quality of their mission-critical IT environments in the face of generational flux?
One simple solution: seek help. Outsourcing system operations, application management and even application development to an expert provider can cut the need to sink resources into development and implementation of a new management approach. However, the provider would need personnel as well versed in the technology and system use cases as the departing internal workers.
A second option: get educated. Educate younger workers in your business processes and mission-critical systems. Rebuilding your skills base, from application design and coding to performance tuning and system operations can have significant long-term benefits. It often takes more time and effort than outsourcing, but it's a worthwhile investment. It could also be an opportunity to increase the diversity of your organization by opening new paths for women IT workers to replace male-dominated cadre on the verge of retirement.
Regardless of approach, it's imperative to recognize that demographics are destiny. The impending "STEM Cliff" in the United States is a major challenge, but it also presents a real opportunity to build new skill sets and ultimately help your increasingly younger IT team work smarter.

Posted March 5th, 2013Skills gaps are emerging in today's economy, and a solution that's proven to make a difference in helping the STEM and broader economy thrive is investing in career and technical education (CTE). CTE programs, whether at the secondary, post-secondary or other educational level, boost student achievement and deliver increased career and earning potential. CTE also produces workers for the open jobs of today, and boosts business productivity and economic status as a result.
The Industry Workforce Needs Council is a new organization of businesses working together to spotlight skills gaps and advocate/kick off CTE programs that work to curb the problem. For more information, or to join the effort, visit the IWNC website.

Jerusalem Artichoke and Hazelnut Soup with Bacon
The hazelnuts make this soup much more interesting; I pinched the idea from the Riverford vegetables site (thank you, Jane Baxter), and added some crispy bacon for texture and umami and some celery for a grassy note.The nuts are ground and added at the end of cooking time, with the cream, when the soup is blended. I left mine with a little texture although I must admit it wasn't by choice – I really, really need a new blender. It is so frustrating. I bought mine around 6 years ago and it wasn't great then. It is a crime to my kitchen.
For a vegetarian soup, swapping the chicken stock for vegetable and the bacon for crispy parmesan croutons would be delicious.
Jerusalem Artichoke and Hazelnut Soup with Crispy Bacon (serves 4)
500g Jerusalem artichokes, scrubbed and sliced
1 large onion, sliced
1 table spoon olive oil
2 cloves garlic, crushed
2 sticks of celery, washed and sliced
900mls chicken stock
100mls single cream
6 rashers bacon
100g hazelnuts, toasted and ground
- Gently fry the onions with the celery for 5 minutes
- Add the garlic and artichokes for 30 seconds
- Add the stock, bring to the boil and then simmer for around 20 minutes
- Meanwhile, grill the bacon until really crispy and chop into pieces
- Blend until smooth, then stir in the hazelnuts and cream
- Top each serving with some of the crispy bacon pieces, and a swirl of olive oil and cream if you remember!

Not all sunflowers have seeds that are tasty to humans; some varieties are grown as ornamentals and have smaller, tougher seeds. For edible seeds, your best bets are tall varieties (10 to 12 feet) with larger seeds. These include 'Russian Giant', 'Kong', and 'Mammoth Russian'.
To roast sunflower seeds:
1. Cover sunflower seed heads with cheesecloth to protect them from birds. 2. When the back of the seed head is brown and dry, cut off the seed head. Leave about 2 feet of stalk attached. 3. Hang it (still in the cheesecloth) in a well-ventilated, warm location. When the backs are brown and crisp, seeds will snap out easily. 4. Cover unshelled seeds with salted water (2 quarts of water to ¼ to ½ cup salt). Simmer two hours, or soak in the salt solution overnight. Drain and dry. 5. Bake in a shallow pan at 300ºF for 30 to 40 minutes until brown and crisp, stirring occasionally. 6. Add one teaspoon of melted butter or margarine to one cup of seeds. Stir to coat. 7. Store roasted seeds in a tightly covered container.

This is a choice from my archives. A few years ago during this time of year, I was able to walk up to the view point at Larch Mountain, which is about 25 miles east of Portland. This year, however, the road is still closed due to snow. This view is looking west towards the ocean, with the Columbia River winding below.

Rushing water indicates Mt Hood snow melting!
Around the foothills of Mt Hood, all the creeks and rivers are swollen with snow runoff. This creek is moving quickly, but the water is clear and clean. Larger area creeks in Gresham, such as Kelly Creek or Johnson Creek are fast moving as well, but much more muddy.

Yesterday, our sister site Next Generation broke an exclusive news story that the Entertainment Software Association was effectively canceling the mega-format of the Electronic Entertainment Expo, otherwise known as E3.
The cancellation was due to a number of major publishers pulling out of the deafening annual Los Angeles spectacle. Nintendo, Microsoft, Sony Computer Entertainment America and Electronic Arts all called it quits after the May 2006 event. The simultaneous mass exodus of the majors served to permanently defang the prohibitively expensive affair.
This morning the ESA was prompted to announce that the E3 show would go on, but with a much smaller footprint, called "the new E3Expo".

Want Hot Fudge With Your Turkey Ice Cream?
By editor
Originally published on Wed November 21, 2012 9:49 am
Good morning. I'm Linda Wertheimer with a Thanksgiving dessert that goes way past pumpkin pie a la mode. An Arizona ice cream shop is creating an entire Thanksgiving dinner in ice cream form. Scooptacular is offering sweet potato ice cream, also cranberry. And for the adventurous, corn and even turkey by the scoop. Can you get hot fudge with that? Would you want hot fudge with that? It's MORNING EDITION. Transcript provided by NPR, Copyright National Public Radio.
