Appearance: Poured nice and dark with a tan head which didn't stick around long.
Smell: Almost exactly like an old style chocolate malt! Seemed very sweet.
Taste: Follows the nose. Chocolate, malt, molasses, a touch of coffee and malt. Did I mention malt?
Mouthfeel: Medium body. Not viscous.
Overall: A solid example of the style, but not balanced IMO. Glad I tried it, wouldn't turn it down if it were offered, but would choose something else myself.

Poured a black body with minor head on top of an aroma that is thick of roasted malts, bordering on coffee at times, touch of dark chocolate. Simple, not complex stout, but pretty tasty and enjoyable. Chewey, slightly sticky body that is a little boozy and has some minor chocolate sweetness and a whole of roasted malts although not picking up a hint of coffee as I did in the aroma. Goes down nice with no problems and is a fine beer to have.

look: 4 | smell: 4.25 | taste: 4 | feel: 3.75 | overall: 4
Poured from a bottle into a shaker pint, the beer is a very dark brown, almost black coloring with a thin, sparse, light tan surface coat of head. Aromas of subtle coffee, cream sweetness, chocolate highlights, and hints of vanilla. Smells great! Flavors are smooth and creamy initially, with a solid blast of roast and bitter coffee in the backbone. Extremely balanced, with a smoothness as it travels over the palate. Light bodied, but it never loses that smooth touch, transitioning to a roasted and more heavily bittered coffee aftertaste. The finish is bitter and dry, with a roasted linger. Solid beer, and the light body makes it very drinkable.

look: 3.75 | smell: 3.75 | taste: 4 | feel: 4 | overall: 3.75
Pours a black only small ruby highlights when held to the light. Head is small coco colored and it falls quick with just spotty lace.
Aroma is roasted malts, good chocolate notes, some light coffee and dark fruity notes.
Taste is roasted malts some dark chocolate upfront moving to lightly sweet fruity notes. Finishing with a dry roasted Columbia coffee like flavor, mingled with some herbal hops for some added bitterness. Also some fruit and anise notes lingering. Taste seeems little better then the aroma more complex any how.
Mouthfeel is nice big medium approaching full. Carbonation only medium but seems to pep up some in the finish.
Overall nice little stout, defiantly worth trying but not kick ass enough for regular consumption.

look: 3.5 | smell: 4 | taste: 4.25 | feel: 3 | overall: 4
Poured from a bottle into a shaker pint.
A - Pours jet black, with a two-finger tan head with good retention. Nominal lacing.
S - Healthy aroma of chocolate, burnt grains, black coffee, anise, and booze.
T - Chocolate, marshmallow, black licorice, burnt coffee, graham cracker, and lots of roasted bitterness. Just enough sweetness to balance. Slight bit of pine hop in the finish enhances the flavor and keeps things interesting. Not terribly rich, but decently complex. Pretty tasty.
M - Kind of thin bodied for the flavor profile. Also, WAY over carbonated; almost soda like. Some misfires here.
O - A really well done stout, just wish it had a better mouth feel. The taste pretty much makes up for it though and despite it's flaws, this one gets it more right than wrong. I'll buy again.

A: Black with a mocha head.
S: Nose is typical of a stout, though a bit coffee forward to be more specific, with a touch of alcohol, dark chocolate, roasted malt and a touch of anise.
T: Very nice imperial stout. Roasty with some coffee and dark chocolate.
M: Creamy smooth and full bodied. Mouthfeel is nearly perfect.
O: An excellent example of the style. I love a good Imperial Stout.

WAGNER & VERDI 200th BIRTHDAY
Sanford Health MASTERWORKS CONCERT
Saturday, March 15th at 7:30 pm
Sunday, March 16th at 2:00 pm
NDSU Festival Concert Hall
For the fourth concert of the exciting 2013-14 season, the Fargo-Moorhead Symphony and new Music Director Christopher Zimmerman will celebrate the 200th anniversary of the birth of two famed composers who were born in the same year, yet their styles of music are strikingly different from each other.
This concert will feature orchestral interludes taken from some of their most famous and familiar operas, including Verdi's La Forza del Destino, La Traviata and Aida, as well as Wagner's Lohengrin, Die Meistersinger, and Tristan und Isolde.
The concert will also feature young musicians from the area in two works. Pianist BRAYDEN DREVLOW, the winner of the 2014 YOUNG ARTIST SOLO COMPETITION (an annual competition sponsored by the Fargo-Moorhead Symphony and Classical Minnesota Public Radio) will perform one movement of Beethoven's Piano Concerto No. 3 with the orchestra.
Young musicians from the F-M SENIOR HIGH YOUTH SYMPHONY will join the FMSO in one of the pieces on the concert program, Wagner's Overture to Die Meistersinger, in a side-by-side performance with the orchestra.
German Richard Wagner (REE-kard VOG-ner) and Italian Giuseppe Verdi (joo-SEP-pee VEHR-dee) are considered to be the two leading opera composers of the 1800s. Both were famous and brilliantly successful during their lifetimes.
Verdi's operas are among the most enduring and are still popular today in opera houses all over the world, including Rigoletto, La Traviata, Macbeth and Aida. His music was beloved by his fellow Italians, and helped inspire the Italian "Risorgemento" resurgence movement under Austrian rule.
Wagner was a remarkable innovator in music at the time. His concept of the 'total work of art', in which all the arts were brought together into a single unity, led him to not only "blow up" the normal boundaries of opera (his pit orchestras and productions were so huge he had to have his own opera house built) but also nearly every aspect of his personal life as well. His compositions, though, are known for their sweeping drama and epic beauty including The Ring, a massive fifteen-hour, four-opera work – Das Rheingold, Die Walküre (The Valkyrie), Siegfried and Götterdämmerung (The Twilight of the Gods).
Come to this concert and find out why the music of these two composers is still some of the most popular, powerful and beautiful classical music of all time.
Advance tickets are available here.
$5 STUDENT RUSH tickets (with student ID) are available at the door one hour before each performance.

Maine's hospitals double free care over 5 years
Maine hospitals have doubled the amount of free care they provide over the past five years as the weak economy pushed more people out of work and companies shifted an increasing amount of healthcare costs onto employees. More scrutiny has been placed on free care as healthcare has become big business and top hospital executives in Maine fetch six-figure salaries. A Portland Press Herald survey of the four largest hospitals in the Greater Portland area found that Mercy Health System provides more free care as a percentage of its gross revenues than its peers. Mercy, a Catholic hospital, last year spent about $12.8 million—3.3 percent of its gross revenues—on providing free care.

Hi to everyone who is subscribed to the DIYcity Discussions Group.
I wanted to write a quick note to say that I'm posting again, once a week, to DIYcity's Main Group.
I know there are many of you who are subscribed to Discussions and not to Main. If you want to be a part of the DIYcity thing right now and hear what's going on, please go check out the Main Group and sign up for it to receive notifications. Very low volume - one post a week from me.
This Discussions group will probably continue to be silent for now (though it doesn't have to be). So if you don't do anything, you'll probably continue to not get mail from DIYcity, just as you haven't for the past year.

Galaxy Note 2 arrives on AT&T on Nov. 9
The extra-large smartphone, or "phablet," will sell for $299 with a two-year contract.
AT&T will sell Samsung Electronic's Galaxy Note 2 on Nov. 9 for $299 with a two-year contract.
Today's announcement follows T-Mobile confirming that it will sell the extra-large device for the same price starting tomorrow.
Related stories
While the original Galaxy Note was ridiculed for its large 5.3-inch display, Samsung has pushed the device aggressively, now adding even more carrier support for the second, larger 5.5-inch version. The device sparked a new mini category dubbed "phablet," or a cross between a smartphone and tablet.
The Galaxy Note 2 will be available for preorder on Oct. 25 via AT&T. The carrier said a "marble white" version could be available in the coming weeks.
Along with the larger display, the Galaxy Note 2 features an S-Pen stylus, like the original, a quad-core processor and 8-megapixel camera. The device runs on Android 4.1, or Jelly Bean.
Samsung has planned a launch event for the device tomorrow.

multibootusb conflicts with thunderbird???It seems that I have to remove the thunderbird-globalmenu.(Ubuntu 12.03.4 amd64) But I also give it a 5 star rating.Good job! $ sudo apt-get install -f Reading package lists... Done Building dependency tree Reading state information... Done Correcting dependencies... Done The following package was automatically installed and is no longer required: thunderbird-globalmenu Use 'apt-get autoremove' to remove them. The following packages will be REMOVED: multibootusb 0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 1 to remove and 11 not upgraded.
The Windows version of this tool doesn't install syslinux onto the USB correctly (tested via Windows 7 or 8 as admin). Distributions are extracted just fine, but upon boot, "No Default or UI configuration directive found!" Otherwise, looks to be neat.
Nice project! You did a great job. Thank you!++
This program was very fast and worked without problems. It is one of the few that uses only syslinux and not syslinux with grub or something similar. The only problem I encountered was the non-supported Rescatux (you should support this) and Fedora + Ubuntu Minimal which displayed nothing when I clicked on "Install".

I actually measured it out and the scoop is right on. I was thinking that the reason it worked so good was that i was double dosing it! . I wasted a bunch of money over the years and this is one of the most impressive products I have ever used. Hemavol is in my rotation to stay.
Right on. Before I order the week sample pack, are the samples the pill form or the powder form? I'd really like to stack the powder with Assault before I take off to the gym for the most beast mode workout ever.
I prefer the powder. Nothing like the mixing ritual before heading to the gym .

Up to you. Just out what flavors + form(powders or pills) you want in comment section and well get it all set

GLSL 4.0: Discarding Fragments to Create a Perforated Look
Feb 06 2012 08:41 PM | Posted By David Wolff
in OpenGL
Fragment shaders can make use of the discard keyword to "throw away" fragments. Use of this keyword causes the fragment shader to stop execution, without writing anything (including depth) to the output buffer. This provides a way to create holes in polygons without using blending. In fact, since fragments are completely discarded, there is no dependence on the order in which objects ar...
GLSL 4.0: Using Subroutines to Select Shader Functionality

In GLSL, a subroutine is a mechanism for binding a function call to one of a set of possible function definitions based on the value of a variable. Subroutines therefore provide a way to select alternate implementations at runtime without swapping shader programs and/or recompiling, or using if statements along with a uniform variable.In this article by David Wolff, author of OpenGL 4.0 Shading...

Blackwater Falls typically gets 150 inches of snow during a normal winter and ski season.
"This storm generated almost one-third of our normal winter snowfall in less than 24 hours," Gilligan said, "and it isn't winter yet in the valley."
Power might be restored there this weekend.
Also hard-hit was Cathedral State Park, in neighboring Preston County, a 133-acre tract of virgin hemlock. Ranger Eric Risinger said trees have fallen atop all the buildings and blocked trails.
Cathedral is closed until some of the more than 24 inches of packed snow melts and the trees can be removed. Conventional plows have struggled to remove the snow, which was unusually wet and heavy.
The West Virginia National Guard had about 300 members on active duty Friday afternoon, but Sgt. Anna-Marie Ward said that number was expected to drop below 200 on Saturday.
Guard teams are focused on stream reconnaissance, she said, looking at debris areas and "possible choke points" in the areas that were hit hard with snow.

A.J. Hughes knew he was in for a battle as he competed with three other walk-on punters in the preseason for the lone starting job on the Virginia Tech football team.
The freshman from Terre Haute North survived the ordeal and was the only person to punt for the Hokies this year, with 79 kicks for a 40.6-yard average. He had a long punt of 57 yards, had three for touchbacks, 18 fair catches, 22 downed inside the 20 and 15 of more than 50 yards.
Hughes culminated his first collegiate season by punting a whopping 11 times last month in VT's 13-10 overtime win over Rutgers in the Russell Athletic Bowl in Orlando, Fla., the most times anyone has ever punted in a game in the illustrious career of legendary coach Frank Beamer.
He learned far more from the preseason competition than just the knowledge that he could punt a football a long way.
"The tryout thing was a battle," Hughes said. "It was hard, and a learning experience. I faced a lot of adversity.
"I'm fortunate I came out on top, and the whole process made a man out of me," he said. "I wouldn't have had it any other way. I'm glad for the opportunity I was given, and it made me learn how to work."
Hughes is an outgoing, fun-loving guy who could be seen last winter as a member of North's "Woelf Pack," wearing outlandish theme costumes, leading cheers to annoy basketball opponents and doing flips.
Predictably, the massive crowds the Hokies performed before didn't faze him much.
"It was quite the transition in terms of environment," Hughes said. "Going from playing at North with a few hundred people in the stands, then our home games at Blacksburg and going to Death Valley [Clemson], Florida State or Georgia Tech — those places are all crazy."
Hughes admits to being nervous for only the first two punts of the year, which came on Labor Day against Georgia Tech.
"After that, I really focused in," he said, "and tried to take care of my job. I like the big stage — I'm kind of a showoff — and it helps me to do better. The whole season was a great experience, the most fun I've ever had in my life."
Hughes is happy with his performance, but still yearns to do even better.
"It was about average," he said. "I'm happy with it overall. I wanted to get through the year with a 40-plus average and get a scholarship, and I was able to accomplish both of those goals."
He will be working hard this spring to get his strength up, doing a lot of elliptical lifts and box jumps, with the focus not as much on length of punts but hang time.
"I'm really a situational punter," he said. "The big thing is hang time and keeping the ball up high. I hit 5.0 [seconds of] hang time maybe once or twice this year, but that's been struggling.
"The key to improving is really more about technique than strength, and explosion is the main thing."
His story should sound a little familiar — free-spirited former Terre Haute North punter and track star turned big-time college football player. Lot of Steve Weatherford similarities there.
"Steve and Pat McAfee [of the Indianapolis Colts] have both been great advocates of my career," Hughes said, noting lessons learned at the summer camp that Weatherford operates once each year in Terre Haute. "I didn't get to talk to Steve much this season, except through social media, but I talked to his brother [Scott, of Eastern Illinois] a lot and he was also a big help."
There are also some differences. Hughes did not call any of his own fake punts this season, as Weatherford has been known to do, and he kicks with his left foot, unlike the New York Giants' star.
Being left-footed has its advantages.
"It gives the ball a different kind of spin," he said, "and it's harder for the return men to catch. The New England Patriots only sign left-footed punters."
The obvious question — if the NFL is the eventual goal for Hughes — got the equally obvious answer.
"Of course," he said. "I still have a lot of improving to do and a lot of work to get done here. We'll worry about that later."
Hughes was credited by the Virginia Tech stat crew with four tackles this year — "Really?" he said. "I didn't think I had any" — and had an unfortunate experience in a game at Clemson when a snap sailed over his head and caused a scramble.
"I didn't really freak out when that happened," he said, "and I actually got off a pretty good rugby-style punt before I got rocked. It hurt pretty bad when I got hit."
Hughes is proud of the fact that none of his punts was returned for a touchdown this year, and credits his coverage team with doing a great job in both reducing returns and downing punts deep in enemy territory.
It wasn't hard for him to pick out several special moments from the past season, all of which came on the same night.
"It would have to be running out of the tunnel my first game on national TV against Georgia Tech, and my best friend [Cody Journell] kicking the tying and winning field goals," he said. "We had a huge celebration and it was a blast.
"My family was all there, and it was one of the best moments of my life so far."
Stay tuned, though. This story has just begun.

I'm struggling to find the correct words to describe this incredible 44-year-old outdoorsman!
At times, I will get down on life and feel sorry for myself. Everyone should meet John Steinbrenner at one time n their life. This man sees no challenges, just solutions for anything he comes up against. -
From the Press Box: Loss couldn't ruin great day for ISU, Terre Haute
When I write, and when I can, I like to give myself a bit of time to soak in what I'm going to write about. After Indiana State's 65-58 loss to No. 4 Wichita State on Wednesday, I went home, had a bite to eat and pondered what I thought the night was all about.
I knew ISU's disappointment cut deep. Really deep. A cruel reality of sports is that losses linger on in the memory with greater resonance than wins often do. Given the shots that rattled out, fell short and missed the mark in the final five minutes, this is a defeat that will, sadly, dog the Sycamores tonight, tomorrow and 20 years from now. -
Ramblin' Reck: Upsets leave Syracuse in No. 1 spot
A wild week of men's college basketball action ended Sunday with Indiana's Hoosiers knocking off Big Ten leader Michigan 63-52.
TILL IT'S OVER: Indiana Track and Field museum in Terre Haute a treasure for city
Greg Gibson and Dave Patterson were named honorary members of the Indiana Track and Field and Cross Country Hall of Fame on Saturday at a reception for the 2014 inductees Saturday.
The Wabash Valley inductees were former high-jump state champion Ted Sweatt of Terre Haute Wiley, former Sullivan and Indiana State standout Erica Moore, former state mile record holder Jack Corridan of Wiley and Tom Henderson of Brazil. -
Hughes, News & Views: Odds in favor of Richard Sherman being mentioned here
I've explained my post-2011 NFL allegiances before, but allow me to summarize them one more time for any new readers to this column.
I eased into liking the Indianapolis Colts as my favorite team in the late 1980s. Like plenty of other Wabash Valley sports fans, I became Colts-obsessed when Peyton Manning, Reggie Wayne and others turned them into an elite franchise in 1999 and the early 2000s.
When the Colts beat Da Bears 29-17 in Super Bowl XLI on Feb. 4, 2007, I yelled as loud as anyone in Terre Haute.
Ramblin' Reck: Even after 20-point loss, Sycamores move up to 51st in RPI
Checking out some basketball polls and rankings -- colleges first:
In spite of losing to Wichita State, Indiana State moved up to 51st in the weekly RPI totals from 63. Some other rankings: Kansas 1, Wisconsin 4, Villanova 5, Wichita State 9, Creighton 10, Illinois 58, Northern Iowa 70, Indiana 77, Missouri State 78, Purdue 87, Butler 90, Notre Dame 94, Illinois State 108. -
College report: Terre Haute pair Berry, Comer to boost Sycamores' lines
While many people have varying opinions on the most important position on a football team, most old-school gridiron veterans would consider strong line play as a necessity for anything else to work — kind of like pitching in baseball and guard play in basketball.
FROM THE PRESSBOX: Time for constructive criticism, not panic for ISU
I said before Indiana State's Missouri Valley Conference showdown with Wichita State that there would be no need to hit the panic button if the Sycamores lost at Koch Arena on Saturday.

Ramblin' Reck: After snow, busy week in prep basketball
Because of lots of snow and ice, high school basketball action was limited in the area last week. This week promises to be a busy one, especially with better weather conditions in the forecast. Some key prep boys games are slated, two of them tonight.
AMEY TAKES AIM: Basketball clock ticking down for Union
If there's an unfortunate unintended consequence of the several weather-related postponements to the Greene County Invitational — which is operating as well as it possibly could have, Steve Brett was adamant about going on record to say Saturday evening — it's that losers of Saturday's four first-round games won't get to play their usual two additional games in the consolation bracket.
Ramblin' Reck: Both ISU basketball teams off to strong starts in MVC
College basketball teams have commenced league play and it's nice to see Indiana State teams in the top spot in the Missouri Valley Conference standings.
From the Press Box: I've seen the enemy … and it's the double bonus
I've seen the enemy.
I've seen it turn the game of basketball from one of exciting flow into a nonstop parade of tedium. I've seen it morph hundreds of what would-be thrilling, last-minute, end-to-end conclusions into foul shooting exhibitions that suck the life out of a gym or arena near you.
It's the double bonus. It's a scourge, one that is often overlooked when ideas on how to make the game more entertaining or to speed the game up are put forth. -

Iron-Tek Liquid Amino Complex Orange -- 16 fl oz
excellent product
This seems to provide a complete set of essential aminos in liquid form (liquid being the only way the effectiveness is preserved and useable). Does not have additives or preservatives and has an excellent (short) ingredient list. Taste is reasonable (slightly medicinal but more than tolerable as it is or can be mixed with juice).
A very useful dietary supplement that also will promote muscle development. Much better and more effective than protein powders or pills.

Not at all what I was expecting. First, these are foam, not hard like normal dice. Second, but most importantly some of the white ones were stained with odd, orange spots and on some the dots were faded. Really not good quality at all, but for the price, it's understandable. If you want a cheap favor/decoration they work. If you want something of quality, keep looking.

Albany Herald
ATLANTA -- The Georgia Department of Education has released its list of the state's top Title 1 schools -- including a handful from Southwest Georgia.
According to the department's website, the top category is reserved for schools with the highest performance or the biggest academic gains by students in the last three years.
A "Highest-Performing School" is a Title I school among the 5 percent of Title I schools in the state that have the highest absolute performance over three years for the "all students" group on the statewide assessments.
A Highest-Performing School must have made Adequate Yearly Progress (AYP) for the "all students" group and all of its subgroups in 2011. A school may not be classified as a Highest-Performing School if there are significant achievement gaps across subgroups that are not closing in the school.
No area schools made the "Highest Performing School" list.
A "High-Progress School" is a Title I school among the 10 percent of Title I schools in the state that are making the most progress in improving the performance of the "all students" group over three years on the statewide assessments. A school may not be classified as a High-Progress School if there are significant achievement gaps across subgroups that are not closing in the school, according to the DOE website.
Six area schools made the "High Progress" category, including Clay County Middle School, Lee County High School, Miller County High School, North Mitchell County Elementary, Calhoun County Middle/High School and Thomasville High School.

Calhoun County Middle/High School and Thomasville High School also made the list.

Those two schools were missed when we put together the story. The omission has been corrected in the online version and a correction will run in Saturday's print edition. Sorry about that.

Usually the Herald does a great job of reporting on DCSS issues. I am confused about why they do not report the status of the school where Rev. Heard's outreach program spent a million dollars for student tutoring. IT SLID .........More than 30 places. Of course other stats about it are much worse.

Lets see how many jobs/bussinesses come to Albany if Rev. Turd can get elected by write in over a white woman who already won. I believe this could turn out to be the final nail in Albanys coffin.

A few months after my first child was born, I wanted to be pregnant again—as soon as possible. I wanted my children to be close in age, the closer the better, and when my son was 13 months old, I got my wish and discovered I was pregnant.
But before I even had a chance to share the news with my husband (he was traveling out of the country), I miscarried. I was only five weeks pregnant. Truth be told if we hadn't been trying to conceive, I probably wouldn't have even noticed that my period was late—and so I was surprised by how sharply I felt the loss. My obstetrician's observations that I was in good company—that around 15 percent of "known" pregnancies (i.e., pregnancies confirmed with a test), and up to half of all pregnancies end in miscarriage during the first trimester—didn't soothe my sadness. Nor did his assurance that the miscarriage wasn't caused by something I had done, or hadn't done, that it was "just one of those things." But I was comforted when I considered the other statistic: that most of the time miscarriage is a one-time occurrence.
If you have had a miscarriage, chances are you want to know what caused it, and what you can do to prevent it from happening again. For starters, relax. "Since you got pregnant once, the odds are 80 percent that you will go on to have a healthy baby, and as many healthy babies after that as you want," says Henry Lerner, MD, clinical professor of obstetrics and gynecology at Harvard Medical School and author of Miscarriage: Why it Happens and How Best to Reduce Your Risks (Perseus Book Group, 2003). Next, accept that you may never know why you miscarried. "The majority of the time miscarriage is a random, isolated event and we can't pinpoint a cause," he says. Women who go on to have two or three miscarriages (called recurrent miscarriage) may ultimately learn they have a medical problem that is causing their pregnancies to end spontaneously, but even with recurrent miscarriage, half the time there is no known cause.
Like most women who lose a pregnancy, I will never know why I miscarried, but I did get pregnant again, about two months later. My second baby was born two weeks after her brother's second birthday. They are, as it turns out, close enough.
Here's a look at the most common causes of both single and recurrent miscarriage.
Miscarriage Cause: Chromosomal Abnormalities
Why it Leads to Miscarriage
"Mismatched chromosomes account for at least 60 percent of miscarriages," says Bryan Cowan, MD, chair of the department of obstetrics and gynecology at the University of Mississippi Medical Center in Jackson, and a spokesperson for the American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists. Chromosomes are the tiny structures in each cell that carry our genes; we each have 23 pairs of them, one set from our mother and one set from our father. Sometimes, when the egg and sperm meet, one or the other is faulty and then the chromosomes can't line up properly. In that case, the resulting embryo has a chromosomal abnormality and the pregnancy usually results in a miscarriage. Couples who experience two or more miscarriages in a row sometimes learn, through medical testing, that they have chromosomal anomalies that don't affect them, but do prevent a pregnancy from taking hold.
What You Can Do
If you have one miscarriage, be patient. The odds are strongly in your favor that you will get pregnant again and deliver a healthy baby. If you miscarry again, however, consider preserving the tissue you pass (if possible, save it in a sterile saline contact-lens solution) and take it to your physician to be sent to a lab for chromosomal testing. "If it's chromosomally normal, we can immediately start looking for other issues that may be responsible for the miscarriages and may be treatable," says Jonathan Scher, MD a fertility specialist in Manhattan and co-author of Preventing Miscarriage: The Good News (Collins 2005).

Minnesota's Brodin joins Calder-winner Huberdeau on All-Rookie Team
By Allan Muir
Jonas Brodin was wronged in the voting for the Calder Trophy. Flat out wronged.
The league's youngest defenseman, he was a steady and reliable minute-muncher for the Wild, leading all rookies in total time on ice (1,044:35) and average time on ice (23:12). You could make a pretty good argument that no first-year player came close to matching his impact. And yet Brodin somehow didn't rank among the top-three vote getters when the ballots of the PHWA were counted. Crazy.
Not that I'm bitter or anything.
At least the league recognized what Brodin the writers didn't. The NHL announced today that the 19-year-old was among the six players named to the annual All-Rookie Team.
Brodin's real value was illustrated not just in the quantity of ice time, but the quality of opponents he faced. Playing alongside Ryan Suter, he consistently lined up against the most dangerous forwards the West had to offer. He responded with the kind of smart, mature hockey that ultimately justified all those minutes and helped guide the Wild back into the postseason.
The ART isn't the Calder, but it's good to see Brodin's season receive some acknowledgement.
Joining Brodin on defense was Justin Schultz. The 22-year-old Oiler led first-year defensemen in goals (8), assists (19) and points (27), power-play assists (11) and power-play points (15).
Calder winner Jonathan Huberdeau and finalists Brendan Gallagher and Brandon Saad were honored as the All-Rookie forwards. Huberdeau played in all 48 games for Florida and ranked second both on the team and among NHL rookies with 31 points (14-17–31), and set a franchise record for most points by a teenager. Montreal's Gallagher, 21, ranked second among rookies with 15 goals and fourth with 28 points and tied for first with three game-winning goals. Saad, 20, topped the rookie charts with a plus-17 rating, including a plus-12 rating on the road,and ranked fifth in goals (10), assists (17) and points (27) on the way to a Stanley Cup win with the Blackhawks.
St. Louis' Jake Allen was named as the team's goalie after the 22-year-old won eight of his first nine decisions and led rookie goaltenders in wins (9), GAA (2.46) and save percentage (.905).

Driving the 2009 Volkswagen Jetta TDI
If you think diesels are slow, noisy, and smelly, or that they're only for trucks, trains, and ships, think again. Or better yet, wake up and join the 21st century.
Volkswagen's 2009 Jetta TDI, available now, is the first clean-diesel vehicle to be offered in all 50 states. To underscore that, VW introduced it to the automotive press in Santa Monica, Calif., with a drive route that included the Pacific Coast Highway, some of SoCal's finest canyon roads, and even a little freeway driving.
As Norbert Krause, director of VW's Environmental Engineering Office, put it so aptly in his part of the morning presentation, "this is not your grandfather's diesel." I got into one of the few stick shift examples in the morning, and twisted the key. No clatter, no smoke, very little noise. A little diesel sound from outside, but luxury car quiet from inside the cabin. An auspicious beginning.
Light clutch, good shift linkage, slip it in gear, and get on the road. Doesn't sound like a diesel. And acceleration is just fine, thank you, with strong torque from about 1,800rpm. Playing a bit with different gears, the engine's sweet spot seems to be around 3,000rpm, and it pulls, strongly, to about 4,500rpm, at which point power drops enough to discourage acquaintance with the rev limiter. According to the specifications, the car has 140 horsepower at 4,000rpm, with 236 foot-pounds of torque from 1,750rpm through 2,500rpm. … Read more

After Last Year's Defeat, Kasich Pushes Forward
By editor
In just one year in office, Ohio Gov. John Kasich made some big changes in his state, based on his conservative, business-backed ideas. But he also suffered a massive defeat when the collective bargaining reform law he supported was overwhelmingly rejected by voters. But that's not stopping him from pushing forward with new ideas in his second year.

Recipe by LL
"I had oranges and apples in the house and couldn't find a recipe that used them both so I created this one. This is a great side-dish for a holiday gathering or would even be good as a dessert over French vanilla ice cream -- or even better if you cook this the night before and heat it up before serving. Enjoy!"
Watch video tips and tricks
5 apples - peeled, cored and diced
4 oranges, peeled and diced
1 cup brown sugar
3/4 cup shredded Cheddar cheese
3/4 cup chopped walnuts
3/4 cup coarsely crushed buttery round crackers
1/2 cup butter
3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg
1/2 teaspoon ground cloves
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 cup liquid non-dairy creamer
We loved the spicy, natural sweetness of this recipe as a desert. It was not very sweet or rich, but had a pleasant and satisfying taste. A great way to end a meal! I will definitely make this again.
This was a surprising blend of flavors in our mouths and was yummy fresh out of the oven. If I decide to try this one again, I would omit the oranges as the texture is a bit funny and replace with more apples or maybe pears. The recipe didn't "re-warm" well.

Went great with the maple roast turkey and ham we made for Thanksgiving. Guests asked for recipe. I highly recommend it.
I made this last night for family dinner. It was delicious! Made a few changes...used only apples and did not dice them ( made them in medium slices). Also used less brown sugar and added ginger. We had as a side dish, kids also loved it, and my mom asked me to make for Thanksgiving... Highly recom mend

Woman Charged With Punching Officer In Face
Posted: 4:13 PM Mar 19, 2013
Reporter: KKTV
A Canon City woman bonded out of jail Tuesday after being accused of punching a police officer in the face.
Police in Canon City say they were called to an apartment complex Saturday on reports of a disturbance involving two female roommates. When officers arrived, they found suspect Aliina Johnson involved in an argument with her roommate, who was reportedly threatening to hurt herself.
Police split the women up, and were planning to transport both to the hospital in separate ambulances for treatment of minor injuries sustained in the fight. Johnson reportedly became combative after she was told she couldn't ride with her roommate, and allegedly punched an officer in the face.
Johnson has been charged with second-degree assault on a peace officer.

Here's a new song I wrote for a bunch of fans of Amnesia: The Dark Descent. It's written from the perspective of the antagonist in the game (hence the generic "dark" lyrics). It's kind of just a bunch of generic hoo-ha, but maybe someone here will like it. Check it out.
P.S- Hope you're all doing well.

Best Airports For Kids The Country's Most Kid-Friendly Airports by Lisa Horten 5/30/13 9 Reactions 66 Shares Print 23 5 38 0 0 When all goes according to plan, traveling with kids can be as thrilling an experience for parents as it is for the tots who are exploring new territory for the first time. But when you're surprised with an unexpected flight delay or lengthy layover, skipped naps, fast-food snacks, and general crankiness can send your plans (and moods) into a tailspin. While we can't control air traffic control, we can provide a bit of guidance when it comes to the most desirable destinations to fly in and out of. Here, six of the country's best airports for families on the fly! Source: Thinkstock Start Dallas/Fort Worth International Airport (DFW) What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 Three Junior Flyer Clubs, in Terminals B, C, and D, offer a safe place for tots to use up their preflight energy. The Club in Terminal B is the largest of the bunch and features a runway, roadway, airplane, and control tower, and a new play area in Terminal A is features an interactive screen that tracks kids' movements. The Skylink tram system is a fun way to ride around and explore one of the busiest airports in the country. Source: DFW Airport 1 / 6 Chicago O'Hare (ORD) What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 O'Hare boasts two play areas for traveling tots. In Terminal 2, Chicago Children's Museum's Kids on the Fly exhibit offers aviation-related educational activities. In Terminal 5, the Play it Safe exhibit, sponsored by the Chicago Fire Department and Chicago Children's Museum, teaches tots about fire and home safety. Both areas are completely handicap-accessible. Got more time to kill? The Airport Transit System is a fun (and free) tram ride that connects terminals. Kids will also love checking on the 72-foot-long Brachiosaurus model in Terminal 1 and the replica World War II fighter plane in Terminal 2. Source: Flickr user Michael Kappel 2 / 6 San Francisco International Airport (SFO) What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 SFO boasts its very own museum, which is full of kid-friendly fun and includes displays in multiple terminals. In Terminal 3, Kids' Spot is presented in partnership with the city's Exploratorium and has a focus on weather-related interactive activities. There's a crawling apparatus and plasma wall that displays arcs of energized color activated by kids' sound and motion. The airport has its very own aquariums, and Terminal 1 features two galleries of children's artwork.

Dubbed Kidport, both are designed by Playtime LLC, a company dedicated to building safe, soft play areas for kids. The Terminal A Kidport includes a tot-size replica of the airport's actual control tower, slides, and more. In Terminal C, there's a carpet designed to look like an airfield, and a mural of the sky to give the feeling of being midair. For parents traveling with babies, there are rocking chairs throughout the airport, plus rooms dedicated specifically to nursing mamas. Source: Flickr user Thomas Hawk 4 / 6 Minneapolis-St. Paul International Airport (MSP) What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 Two play areas (located in Terminals 1 and 2) feature kid-size airplanes, control towers, and slides. Seating for mom and dad is conveniently located near electrical outlets, so parents can power up while the kiddos play. "Diaper Bag Basics" vending machines stocked with diapers, Band-Aids, formula, baby food, and other essentials are located near both play areas, and there are rooms dedicated specifically to quiet time for smaller children and nursing moms. Don't miss a photo opportunity with the airport's signature Snoopy statue at the entrance to Terminal 1!

The main terminal's food court features both the "King of Kong" arcade and a 3,000-gallon saltwater fish tank filled with some 100 aquatic specimens. There's also a piece of an actual asteroid from Mars in the Kennedy Space Center store that kids can touch, and MCO is home to Build-a-Bear's first-ever airport location.

The Management Development Institute (MDI) for Health Care Organizations is a one-week intensive program designed to enhance the leadership and management skills of program managers and leaders of sub-Saharan African organizations, governmental and non-governmental, that are devoted to delivering health care services to underserved populations. The program has been specifically designed to assist African ministries of health in implementing their particular national health priorities.
Nearly 665 participants from 31 African countries have graduated from this program. Up until 2010, the MDI was focused solely on HIV/AIDS . In 2011 the program's new focus was expanded to health systems, generally, and now invites participation of those involved in implementing national health priorities in the areas of communicable diseases - of which HIV/AIDS is one - and chronic diseases, as well.
The program has been designed by world-class management faculty from the UCLA Anderson School of Management at the University of California at Los Angeles (UCLA ) and by leaders of the African Medical and Research Foundation (AMREF ). The MDI is delivered by instructors from UCLA , AMREF and by outstanding faculty from other African universities, including the Ghana Institute of Management and Public Administration (GIMPA), and the Graduate School of Business at the University of Cape Town (UCT ).
The program is funded by Johnson & Johnson, one of the most admired companies in the world today. The language of instruction in all programs is English.
In 2013, we will offer three identical programs - each in a different region of Africa:
• For East African leaders in Munyonyo, Uganda: 29 April - 4 May 2013
• For Southern African leaders in Cape Town, South Africa: 25 - 31 August 2013
• For West African leaders, in Accra, Ghana: 1 - 7 September 2013
The 2013 UCLA/Johnson & Johnson Management Development Institute applications are now available. Please CLICK HERE to apply.

2) Brian Schmitz of the Orlando Sentinel says with Hedo Turkoglu out and Maurice Harkless showing promise, the Magic should start the rookie.

The Motivation and Bias of Bureaucrats
Article Citation
Prendergast, Canice. 2007. "The Motivation and Bias of Bureaucrats."

Many individuals are motivated to exert effort because they care about their
jobs, rather than because there are monetary consequences to their actions. The
intrinsic motivation of bureaucrats is the focus of this paper, and three primary
results are shown. First, bureaucrats should be biased. Second, sometimes this
bias takes the form of advocating for their clients more than would their
principal, while in other cases, they are more hostile to their interests. For a
range of bureaucracies, those who are biased against clients lead to more
efficient outcomes. Third, self-selection need not produce the desired bias.
Instead, selection to bureaucracies is likely to be bifurcated, in the sense that it
becomes composed of those who are most preferred by the principal, and those
who are least preferred. (JEL D64, D73, D82)

Scottish asset manager Martin Currie has not been immune to the troubles plaguing the hedge fund industry.
Despite strong performance in some of its hedge fund strategies, solid performance in others and relative outperformance by every hedge fund on its platform against the relevant benchmarks, the firm's hedge fund business has shrunk in recent months - like that of almost every other firm.
The company has seen its hedge fund assets halve from their peak of $2 billion - a victim of the demand for liquidity among investors and the so-called "ATM" effect of investors withdrawing cash from the most liquid sources, regardless of how well those assets have performed.
But rather than slam gates on investors to bar them from leaving, Martin Currie has...

They rechristened it the Mercury Theatre, the new home of their Mercury Players. A new neon sign was hung; money had come from an unlikely investor named George Hexter. Under that name, it presented a total of five shows, four of them Mercury productions. The most famous was Julius Caesar, which Welles envisioned as a commentary of fascism with a spartan design. The production, being politically charged and an early example of modern-dress Shakespeare, created a sensation and reopened at the National Theatre in 1938. At the same time, the Mercury Players also performed on the radio as "Mercury Theatre on the Air." It's most famous broadcast was, of course, the adaptation of H.G. Wells' "The War of the Worlds," so realistic that many listeners thought there had been a Martian landing.
The Mercury's core company included performers that went on to fame and long careers, including Joseph Cotten, Will Geer, Everett Sloane, Ray Collins, Agnes Moorhead and Norman Lloyd. Many would go on to appear in Welles' films when he moved on to Hollywood to make "Citizen Kane" and "The Magnificent Ambersons."
The building's name was changed to Artef, a Yiddish theatre, in 1940; it was demolished in 1942. Welles returned to Broadway rarely once he began his film career.

The plaque is of fairly new vintage. It was placed there as a publicity stunt on Nov. 24, 2009, to draw attention to the New York premiere of the film "Me and Orson Welles." In attendance were director Richard Linklater, cast members Zac Efron and Christian McKay, along with Orson Welles' daughter, Chris Welles Feder. The plaque hangs on the side of an office building.

At the October 23rd Campbell County School District Board meeting, the trustees heard a recommendation from associate superintendent for instruction Dr. Boyd Brown. Brown recommended a start date of Aug 28th next school year. Brown noted the new calender is similar in many aspects to previous calendars but said they did drop 5 early release days. Both Brown and trustee Lisa Durgin noted that too many early release days was a common complaint from parents when discussing the calender for the district. Brown said the last day of school for the 2013-14 year is set to be May 30th, and a snow day has been put in.
However the district will decide later when to have parent-teacher conferences. School officials had suggested scheduling those conference on Nov. 4 and Nov. 5, 2013.The Monday and Tuesday dates would be different from previous years when conferences took place on Wednesday night, Thursday and sometimes a portion of Friday.
Trustee Anne Ochs voiced concern with the change and noted the elementary schools have about a 99% rate of response from parents the way things have been. She voiced concern changes could have a negative impact to that response. Durgin questioned whether there should be an early release the Wednesday before conferences start. Brown said he will gather more information and input to aid the board in the decision.
