I am a lover of many things, but my passions include my records, tea and books (not necessarily in that order!) I embrace local food and good cooking as much as I can, and place great value on time with family and enjoying the bounty of nature. As of January 2014 my husband and I finally moved to the country to be closer to family and continue our journey in a family home. We have been wanting to do this for a couple years, so we are very excited to follow our hearts. We also have a wonderful kitty named Emma that is the princess of the house.
I am drawn toward good Chinese blacks, enjoy some herbals and the odd roasted oolong. Greens and whites can make me nauseous, but I will have flavoured ones on occasion. While I don't yet adore puerh, I am giving it my best effort. Chamomile and coconut are the devil though, I wish they didn't exist. Mint has been a particular favourite of mine since childhood, and I enjoy both flavoured and pure teas though unflavoured blacks are tops for me.
As for ratings, I try to only log teas once or twice because I drink a lot of the same ones repeatedly. My rating is based on my perception of the tea at first tasting and is adjusted if anything notable occurs in subsequent cups. I may also factor in the price and customer service but try to note that when I can.
81 – 100: WOW. This is the cream of the crop.
71 – 80: This is a solid tea. I enjoy it, and would recommend it to others, but may not repurchase.
61 – 70: Just okay. I can drink it, but it doesn't stand out to me. May try again to improve.
41 – 60: Bleh. Might finish it, but it's not to my taste OR just doesn't impress me at all.
0 – 40: No thank you, please. Take it away and don't make me finish the cup.

Parra named NL Rookie of the Month
Outfielder hit safely in 14 of the 16 games in May
SAN DIEGO -- Gerardo Parra turned a strong winter and spring into a trip to the Majors and parlayed an outstanding May into winning the Gillette presents National League Rookie of the Month Award.
Parra split last season between Class A Visalia and Double-A Mobile where he posted solid, if not spectacular, numbers.
A native of Venezuela, Parra played well in the Venezuelan Winter League and carried that momentum over into Spring Training where he solidified his standing as a top prospect.
"I don't think we have a better position player prospect in our organization," then-manager Bob Melvin said when Parra was optioned to Mobile towards the end of camp.
Parra was called up to the big leagues for the first time on May 13 and it didn't take him long to have success. In his first at-bat, he blasted a home run. Along with Atlanta Braves center fielder Jordan Schafer, he was the second rookie to go deep in his first big league at-bat this season, and the second Arizona player in history to connect in his first career at-bat (Alex Cabrera, June 2000).
Parra hit .319 with a .493 slugging percentage and a .360 on-base percentage for the month.
In his first five games he had at least one RBI becoming just the second player in the last 30 years to do so joining Mike Lansing (1993).
Parra had four two-hit games and two three-hit games and hit safely in 14 of the 16 games he played in during the month.

Computed Tomography of the head is an excellent tool for the rapid preliminary evaluation of headache, trauma or neurological dysfunction.
Ease of access to CT scanning for problem solving must be weighed against the need to maintain radiation dose at the lowest necessary level (ALARA principle = "as low as reasonable achievable"). For a young adult (age 25 years) the estimated radiation organ dose to the brain from a head CT is 20 mGy. (1)
Familiarization with the appearance of normal structures can maximize the benefit of head CT and limit the need for repeat studies.

|Tender almond flour muffins bursting with fresh blueberries.
Almond Flour Magic
Another muffin recipe?
While many seasoned food bloggers are waxing poetic about grilling burgers and slabs of watermelon on their backyard grill, the truth is, Babycakes, I'm just not into it. I'm in such a different head space that it almost seems comical to me, reading headlines in my Inbox about the "Ultimate Burger", or how July Fourth wouldn't be a real celebration without a hunk of charred All-American meat or a Philly cheese dog.
So after living most of my life as a vegetarian (sometimes flexitarian), when I was told, post hip-surgery, to eat animal protein in order to mend my fractured hip, I complied with my surgeon's advice. I went the organic, free-range, wild caught, sustainable route. And my hip healed. And three years later, I walk without a limp.
He shrugged a Well, yeah, as to a slow witted child.
I blinked and nodded my best upbeat gluten-free goddess nod. I went home. And I did it. Banana smoothies and mashed potatoes defined my life.
I was the Queen of Puree.
Sitting up in recovery, I yelled out to the anesthesiologist passing by the curtain, I love you!
My doc was happy. We even discussed trying an anti-inflammatory diet. It turns out he's gluten-free by choice. And receptive to the idea that our diet can influence our health (what a concept, right?).
|Warm from the oven blueberry muffin and a cool glass of rice milk.

These are light and delicious.
|Tender almond meal gives this muffin a delicate nutty scent.
Gluten-Free Blueberry Muffin Recipe with Almond FlourOriginally published July 2010.
I used Bob's Red Mill Almond Flour in this new muffin recipe. Finely ground almonds create a delicate, soft gluten-free flour that is light and subtly sweet.
Preheat the oven to 375ºF. Line a 12-muffin tin with paper liners.
Whisk together:
1 1/3 cups almond meal
1 cup sorghum flour or certified GF oat flour
1/2 cup tapioca starch or potato starch (not potato flour)
1/2 teaspoon sea salt
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon baking powder
3/4 teaspoon xanthan gum
2 teaspoons Bourbon vanilla extract
Beat in:
1 1/3 cups organic light brown sugar
2 tablespoons light olive oil
1 tablespoon Ener-G Egg Replacer whisked with 1/4 cup warm water till frothy
1/2 cup warm water, more as needed, up to 3/4 cup
1 teaspoon fresh lemon juice
Beat the batter until it is smooth, like a slightly thickened cake batter. I found this batter a bit thinner than I'm used to (I haven't baked with almond flour in several years).
Add in:
1 pint fresh blueberries, washed and patted dry
Stir gently and briefly.
Baking instructions:
Plop the blueberry muffin batter into the twelve lined cups. You'll probably have some xtra- for a baker's dozen. We made tiny mini-muffins with our extra better. Too cute.
Bake in the center of a preheated oven for 23 to 25 minutes, until golden and firm to the touch. A wooden pick inserted into the center should emerge clean.
Cool the muffin pan on a wire rack for five minutes. Gently pop the muffins out to continue cooling on the rack (don't cool them in the hot pan- they'll get soggy).
If by some chance, Babycakes, your muffins are soggy or slightly underdone-- due to unforeseen oven temperature variations-- place them back into the warm oven directly on the center rack for five minutes or so.
These are simply divine warm from the oven.
Wrap and freeze cooled muffins for future breakfast treats.
Makes a baker's dozen.

Karina's notes:
If you prefer using eggs in your gluten-free baking, I recommend using two to three organic free-range eggs in this recipe.
*As always, follow your own doctor's medical advice regarding food allergies. Consult with her/him before even contemplating a food challenge- and obviously do not attempt a food challenge without medical advice and supervision.

NEWBURY, Mass. — There's yellow police tape at the entrance to the Plum Island Beach on a Monday in mid-March. Behind it a generator is running. A Komatsu front loader and a Caterpillar digger sit nearby. Off to the right, a large backhoe is visible above rooftops crammed onto every possible lot.
What you can't see are 13 houses that have been deemed uninhabitable, including three that have been torn down and three others that eventually will be razed, victims of yet another ocean storm.
About a quarter mile west, a crowd jams the Plum Island Taxpayers and Associates Hall for the monthly meeting of the Merrimack River Beach Alliance. The group coordinates preparedness efforts for Plum Island and neighboring coastal areas here along the Atlantic seaboard north of Boston. Nine television cameras train on residents and property owners, most of them angry, all of them concerned about what's happening to their community in the face of nature's irresistible force.
One of them is Cheryl Jones-Comeau, who had to abandon her house temporarily after this storm, which hit three days earlier. She's had a house on Plum Island for more than 30 years. In the past, islanders have bulldozed up new sand dunes during low tides to protect their houses from flooding and erosion. She wants to do so again, but the Massachusetts Department of Environmental Protection regulates pushing around sand on the barrier beach.
Comeau's had it with that.
"I'm tired of DEP – they don't want us living there anymore," she says in the meeting. "There are houses that have been here a couple of hundred years. It's too late. We're here. We have to work with what we've done."
People like Comeau who live in places prone to natural disasters know how to prepare, to have rations and a supply of water on hand, to bring patio furniture inside to limit damage from approaching storms. But the last decade has seen super storms like Hurricanes Katrina and Isaac and monster tornadoes like the ones that swept through Alabama and destroyed one-third of Joplin, Mo., in 2011. A major Mid-estern earthquake along the New Madrid fault is expected any moment.

Holiday-themed movies and TV shows get the most attention during this time of year.
But there are just as many, if not more, beloved books that contain cherished Christmas stories -- some of which get shared across generations. With an impending winter storm on the horizon, this may be the best time to find the Christmas spirit between the covers of a good book. These are some of our favorites that are easily found at a bookstore or library.
'The Night Before Christmas'
This poem is a classic in every sense of the word. First written anonymously in 1823, Clement Clarke Moore eventually claimed authorship of the story that talks about a visit from the legendary St. Nick. Some argue that the poem is responsible for some of Santa's iconic wardrobe and stature.
But our favorite part of the tale is how many times it has been told and illustrated. The Joplin Public Library had two versions in stock on Tuesday, and both featured dramatically different illustrations.
The tale is timeless and a perfect story for sharing the magic of Santa and Christmas morning with kids.
'The Polar Express'
The movie adaptation of Chris Van Allsburg's "The Polar Express" is legendary for some of the creepiest computer animation to ever be featured in a movie -- all the more reason to share this tale with kids.
While kids will appreciate the story's exciting trip to the North Pole to witness Santa's departure, parents will get a bit nostalgic near the book's ending, which deals with how Christmas changes as we grow up.
'How the Grinch Stole Christmas!'
Unlike "The Polar Express," the 1966 animated adaptation by Chuck Jones has become just as beloved as the book. The Jim Carrey movie of 2000? Not so much.
But the book is where the magic of this tale starts. Dr. Seuss' catchy poetry and creatively written rhymes make this story a joy to read out loud. The story talks about what means the most during the holidays -- and it has nothing to do with presents.

Bought the Farm Today Pics Added
Long story short my great grandfather died in 1973 without a will. My grandfather and my father were the only ones who ever lived on the farm and had a deed to a small portion that their homes and garages sat on directly in the middle. I grew up on the farm and we always used the farm like it was our own just didn't have rights to clear it or do certain things with it. 3 years ago this month one of the long lost heirs of the estate sued to have the estate settled. It gave the lawyers a blank check to settle it. After 3 years of chasing down nearly 50 un-known heirs as far away as Australia, and California, Today the farm finally sold on the courthouse steps to the highest bidder and we were blessed enough to win it.
I can't express in words how this had been hanging over my fathers head his whole life, and how it has limited us to doing things the right way. In a time when so many family farms are split up and divided off into small tracts, my father was able to save this farm that has been in our family since before 1918. After weeks of worrying ourselves sick and not sleeping, tonight I can't close my eyes in excitement for thinking about the future. The chance to clean the farm back up with my father and return it to it's former glory unlike ever seen. I'm sitting here choked up thinking about walking over the property boundaries earlier this week and seeing tree's wider than a cub with barb wire grown through the center of them where Webb's long before me fenced off this land. Or thinking about my great grandfather riding around on "Cindy" his Farmall B which my father restored almost 10 years ago and started us into this great tractor hobby. I just can't explain how it makes me feel, I hope you guys will understand. I'm 28 years old and expecting my first son next month. I truly feel blessed beyond words to know I have this opportunity and that my son will also.

Re: Bought the Farm Today
Congrats! Our century farm was sold to the state of iowa to become a state park. all but the 10 acres around the 2 houses. My kids, just dont understand, "yep, thast USED to be ours."
Re: Bought the Farm Today
Congratulations Brandon. Glad to hear you have it settled and the property is still in the family.
A lesson that can be taken from this is how important it is to have a will. A friend of my wife was widowed with a young child and no will. Scum came out of the woodwork and claimed that her late husband "promised" to give them property, money, etc. and the estate was tied up for years.

Re: Bought the Farm Today
Congrats Brandon!! In just a few years it will be a "Centennial Farm"!!! The property just south of me, in Indiana, is a Centennial Farm and in Indiana that offers some protections that other properties don't. The City of South Bend wanted a portion of land for a commercial development and the land owner didn't want to sell. He was told that if he wouldn't sell they would exercise eminent domain and take the land. Some how a group of Notre Dame law students got involved and found out that eminent domain couldn't be exercised on a Centennial Farm in Indiana and the land owner was able to keep his land!!

Post subject: Debian Squeeze won't boot anymore (after updates) SOLVED
Dear all,
Once again I humbly turn to you for guidance and assistence.
As of yesterday I've lost access to my Debian Squeeze installation. Somewhere during booting the system hangs and all I get is a black screen. The same happens wether I try a normal boot or a recovery boot and then continue from there. What I can do is login as root in a command line environment. My guess is that something went wrong with one of the updates that I allowed to install two days ago. (Don't remember which ones. Sorry.)
The last lines in /var/log/syslog refer to something called mt-daapd. Among those ten or so lines I get the following error messages:
1. mt-daapd: Error loading plugin /usr/lib/mt-daapd/plugins/scc-script.so: plugin declined to load
2. mt-daapd: Error scanning MP3 files: No such file or directory
3. mt-daapd: Error starting web server
I've created /home/media/music which took care of error no.2.
Error no.1 may not be fatal as the system continues to do stuff after that.
Apparently the problem always arrises after error no.3.
Any suggestions are welcome. E.g. can I safely remove this mt-daapd business? It was installed, it seems, three years ago and never caused problems but as it has to do with iTunes I don't think I ever consciously used it. (Unless of course Rhythmbox depends on it somehow.)
Anyway, thanks in advance (as usual),

mt-daapd has been dropped from Debian Testing because it no longer has active development. It's been replaced by forked-daapd (which is also available in Stable), so I think your best option is to purge mt-daapd from your system, and then, if you find you need it, install forked-daapd in its place.

Hi Eric,
Thanks for the suggestion. I've purged mt-daapd and those error messages are now gone but that didn't solve my problem. Unfortunately there was another error message that I overlooked yesterday. It says:
kernel: PM: Error -22 checking image file
kernel: PM: Resume from disk failed
After that, I get another 23 screens of messages. The last lines of the penultimate screen read:
shutdown: shutting down for system halt
init: Switching to runlevel: 0
And the last screen is a bunch of services exiting and shutting down (ntpd, avahi-daemon, mysqld,bluetoothd, Networkmanager).
Seems like some configuration file got messed up somehow and I'm pretty sure I didn't fiddle with those any time recently. Can something like that happen during a package update?

Is that an error or a warning? It's the sort of thing you get when the system gets confused abut whether it should be booting cold or resuming from hibernation.
Add noresume to the kernel boot options in GRUB (not in the config, just for one boot) to ignore the resume image.

I would be very surprised if an update of Debian Stable had such a result, so long as you haven't installed something from a suspect source recently.
It sounds rather more likely that some kind of hardware problem has corrupted your installation. As you can still get command line access, I suggest that you back up all your personal data while you can, and then run some memory and disk checks to see if this reveals anything.
[Edit] I've just seen nelz's reply, and that sounds good as a first approach.

Again thanks,
Tried the noresume option: added it to the end of the GRUB line that says linux /boot/vm-linuz-something but still no result.
I also ran some diagnostic program from a System Rescue CD that took about 3 hours to decide that all cylinders are ok. That at least sounds good to me.
Then I ran fsck on /home, /boot and / (different partitions). That restored some inodes on / that were blocked or something. I don't remember the exact terms but it sounded like a good idea that might solve my problem. Unfortunately I still get a black screen. Maybe I should have mentioned that the machine doesn't shut down completely. After getting to the black screen there's still some stuff going on on the hard disk for a while (judging by the flickering indicator) and then the led on my mouse starts to slowly pulsate so it looks like the computer is hibernating. Only there's no way to wake it up.
Suggestions are still welcome as they may save me from reinstalling.

Although much can be learned from healing such a sick system, it all comes down to the effort v/s cost issue: how much time do you want to spend on finding out exactly what went wrong to fully restore normal operation? As Roseway stated: it's highly unlikely Debian Stable will crash if you've installed updates from Stable only. So, what's in the sources.list file (in /etc/apt/)? Also, your recent update may have pulled in a package that caused this hickup, you should examine the list of installed packages to see if there's anything suspicious. If in doubt, check the Debian package webpage:
In order to restore normalcy quickly, consider re-installing the lot (after the aforementioned backups of data have been made!)...

Sounds like reinstalling is going to be my only option. Probably would've done that already but with Debian being so reliable it's been a while since I needed to.
Anyway I'd still like to figure out where exactly the command to go to runlevel 0 comes from. I checked grub.cfg and files in init.d and none of those were altered recently, nor did they look funny. Default runlevel is set to 2 so why does the box suddenly decide to go to runlevel 0?
If someone could tell me where else to look I'd give it one last shot before resorting to reinstalling.

Thanks again to everyone who made an effort.
It turned out that I was barking up the wrong tree. Just before the whole return to runlevel 0 business there was a whole lot of messages alternating like so:
Mar 25 10:16:08 guynux2 gdm3[1600]: WARNING: GdmDisplay: display lasted 0,336475 seconds
Mar 25 10:16:08 guynux2 acpid: client 3944[0:0] has disconnected
Mar 25 10:16:08 guynux2 acpid: client connected from 3949[0:0]
Mar 25 10:16:08 guynux2 acpid: 1 client rule loaded
Mar 25 10:16:08 guynux2 gdm3[1600]: WARNING: GdmDisplay: display lasted 0,337462 seconds
Mar 25 10:16:08 guynux2 acpid: client 3949[0:0] has disconnected
Mar 25 10:16:08 guynux2 acpid: client connected from 3954[0:0]
Mar 25 10:16:08 guynux2 acpid: 1 client rule loaded
Which made me look into gdm. (And which also made me realise that these messages probably came from the disk drive activity I witnessed after the screen went blank, ànd that the return to runlevel 0 command probably came from silly old me cutting the power manually. My bad!)
To keep a long story short: I ended up (re)installing fglrx and everything seems to be fine again.
Humble greetz,

LEXINGTON, Ky. (8/6/13)— Next week, the University of Kentucky College of Education and Fayette County Public Schools (FCPS) will officially open the doors of the new STEAM Academy to 150 ninth graders. Described as "Kentucky's most innovative school," the academy will give students a learning experience unlike any other while engaging them with the local community.
With the help of UK faculty, STEAM (which stands for science, technology, engineering, arts and mathematics) will offer its students an innovative hybrid instructional program, focusing on mastery learning, personalized instruction, internships, and dual/college credit opportunities (many students will be taking UK 101, the university's academic orientation course). There will also be a very strong emphasis on technology in all aspects of learning, since students are preparing for not only today's careers, but careers of the future.
"For us, in the College of Education, it's a wonderful opportunity to connect pre-service teacher education to this new school," said Mary John O'Hair, dean of the college. "We want our students and faculty to learn and see in practice these next-generation learning concepts."
While many are familiar with the concept of STEM, the added "A" for the arts is relatively new and essential to STEM education, according to Tina Stevenson, director of STEAM Academy.
"The arts are very important to STEAM, because to design something means that you need to be creative," she said. "I feel like we sometimes forget about the design part of a process."
Student agency is also one of the key elements of STEAM. Students will take ownership of their learning by choosing their instructional delivery, schedule and learning style that will involve real-world problem solving in topics that are of interest to them.
"Through a traditional school process, the teacher really is the center point of a lot of classrooms today — and for the last hundred years in education," said Taylor Sullivan, a recent graduate of UK and now the science instructor at STEAM. "The research in education now is showing that when we put the focus on the students, and their interest drives what we're doing, they're able to connect and really make meaning where it was before just knowledge. It's no longer throwing knowledge at students and hoping it sticks — we're leading students to this knowledge, and their process helps them internalize it and really connect with it in a way that they can't in that traditional setting."
The idea behind the STEAM Academy first began in 2010, when 14 leaders from FCPS joined the first cohort of the College of Education's Next Generation Leadership Academy.
"These leaders came together, and they actually began to look at models outside of Kentucky, such as High Tech High, which is a charter school based in San Diego," said Linda France, director of the Next Generation Leadership Academy. "They looked at products students were creating, and as they compared these to products Kentucky students were creating, they saw a competitive edge that students outside of Kentucky would have on our graduates. So, as they visited these schools and talked to these leaders, they began to ask questions like 'what if?' and 'why not?' and out of that the vision for the STEAM Academy was born."
Laurie Henry, associate professor of literacy in the College of Education, was on the initial advisory group for STEAM. Recently, she has been working with the STEAM instructors to help with curriculum mapping and designing project-based instruction for design challenges the students will be doing.
"We're really looking at how schools can be very community-based and help students understand the community they're learning in," Henry said. "Having students go out into the community and learn more about the development projects going on, and connecting that back to the curriculum in the school is one of the big elements of this."
While the instructors will have a "draft" of the curriculum, according to Stevenson, students will be able to take on their own projects within the design challenges.
"One design challenge we're going to do will involve green energy," said Stevenson. "We want our students to go out into this neighborhood and look at some challenges that relate to this topic. For example, we are looking into designing a community garden, and surveying members of this neighborhood and finding out what vegetables they would like to have, but maybe cannot afford. We may also work with an architect to look into lighting these houses in a more energy efficient way. All of our standards will be embedded into these design challenges."
Sullivan says she has designed her classroom to not resemble a traditional one in order to enhance collaborative, community-based learning.
"It's going to be more of a group environment where we're able to do hands-on learning that's going to support the design challenges," she said. "Especially as we look at green energy, we're going to be able to really focus on what's happening in the world as well as in our local community. We're going to explore these questions while meeting national standards and connecting to their design challenge, so that they can be successful and come up with a product that the community really would want to use."
O'Hair says the STEAM Academy accelerates learning and opportunities not just for the students, but all entities involved.
"From the UK perspective, it helps us connect the theory and practice that we talk about in our classrooms to the real world. With the schools and the community, it's an opportunity for them to have the latest research and turn that research into innovation — into their daily practices and into benefits for the community. It is rare to find a university, school district and community working together in this kind of collaboration.

Best Man Gifts - The best man is such an important part of the groom's wedding experience. Sometimes more hindrance than help, it is he that any groom turns to for the vital details: arranging the embarrassing stag night, the cringeworthy toast to the bridesmaids, getting him to the church on time and revealing all in the best man's speech. But the groom will want to find a way to say how much he appreciates the help and support and good times he has had during the all important preparations. A carefully chosen gift will say without words just how thankful you are for all the support and friendship. We have a fantastic range of gifts to delight men with any interest; our personalised bottles of wine and champagne, original newspapers, calendars and sports books are a popular and thoughtful choice. Leather journals in all shapes and sizes, sketchbooks, diaries, quality photo albums and wine record books are a great idea for any guy with a taste for travel and the fine things of life; many of these can be personalised by foil blocking his initials or with an engraved nameplate. If he loves fine stationery, we have gorgeous leather writing cases and some really stylish fountain and rollerball pens that will make a super memento of his best mate's special day. We can even wrap your gift for you to save any last minute panics!

The one question I have is that after I set the engine to TDC on cylinder #1, where should I turn the magneto to, I have heard that I should line it up so that the rotor points to the coil wire on top, but I have also heard that I should point the rotor toward the number "1" that is marked on the plastic cap. Any help in this matter would be awesome. I seem to be able to time the mag on my Cub in a matter of minutes but for some reason this one is throwing me off.

Our comprehensive and vigorous art curriculum is offered to the culturally and economically diverse Bay Area community via online, hybrid and in person art classes at the Downtown, Fort Mason and Ocean campuses and at the Legion of Honor.
Whether participating in a lecture or studio course, our students have the opportunity to:
- engage in a visual literacy that is based upon the understanding of the elements of design and the general awareness of historical and contemporary artistic cultures and trends
- critically evaluate artwork by identifying design elements and using discipline specific terminology and skills.
- develop a series of projects that demonstrate critical analysis, creative thinking, technical skill in a variety of media, as well as the exploration of content and personal approach.
- recognize opportunities of problem solving in the processes of creation.
We look forward to working with you in reaching your artistic and educational goals and invite you to contact us with any questions about our courses and program.
"Last night, we attended the opening of a special exhibition at City College of San Francisco(Almost) Free Formed, featuring collaborative works of former City College students Barry McGee, Chris Johanson, and Laurie Reid. The quiet, intimate night was highlighted by the trio's organization and layout of the show, and also gave notice to the importance of SF's City College to some of the most successful and influential artists to come out of San Francisco in recent decades." Juxatpoz, Feb 2013
"A lot of my first art classes I ever took were here," Johanson said. "There's a diversity of people that go to school here. It's a really great place, as a young adult, to learn about life and art-making at the same time. I could never have afforded to go anywhere else."

Dense fog advisory issued for south central Wisconsin
The National Weather Service has issued a dense fog advisory for Sunday night and Monday morning for much of south central Wisconsin, including Madison.
Visibility is expected to drop to a quarter mile or less in some areas, creating hazardous driving conditions and delaying or canceling flights at airports. Cooling temperatures and increasing moisture in air flowing into the region are creating the dense fog. It's expected to rapidly develop from 9 p.m. to midnight and then linger until around 6 a.m. Monday. »Read Full Article

9 Celebrity Break Ups That Broke Our Hearts
Sure, celebs are always hooking up and breaking up. But these couples were so cute, we couldn't help but feel crushed when they split.
By Emily Laurence and Natalie Pirzad
Taylor Swift & Taylor Lautner
When Taylor Swift got together with Twilight hottie Taylor Lautner, whom she met while filming Valentine's Day, we thought she'd finally have a reason to write a (happy) love song. Turns out Taylor Squared didn't add up to lasting love. True to form, Swift wrote a couple songs about their breakup, "Back To December" and "The Story Of Us," which is supposedly about running into Taylor at an awards show and feeling so sad and alone because they were no longer dating. I think both of us had so much that we wanted to say, but were sitting six seats away from each other, just fighting this silent war of I dont care that youre here,'" she told New York magazine at the time. Poor Tayand Tay!

(CNN) -- CBS apologized to its viewers on Sunday after receiving criticism for a recent "The Amazing Race" episode set in Vietnam.
The reality competition, now in its 22nd season, visited the country in its March 17 installment. One segment took place at a war memorial in Hanoi and included footage of a wrecked U.S. B-52 bomber. Participants, who were looking for clues at the location, also heard a North Vietnamese Communist song.
According to a representative with the Joint POW-MIA Accounting Command (JPAC), the bomber in question was shot down on December 26, 1972, killing two in the crash.
The segment caused an outcry, including open letters from the commander in chief of the Veterans of Foreign Wars, John Hamilton, and American Legion National Commander James Koutz.
"I hope you can understand our anger at a show that wasted a golden opportunity to educate as well as entertain," Hamilton wrote to CBS president and CEO Les Moonves. "The scene with the B-52 wreckage could have been used to tell a story about what was then America's longest war, about the 58,195 American names on the Vietnam Wall, about the 1,652 Americans still listed as missing-in-action, or about the fates of the multiple crewmen aboard each of the 17 American B-52s we lost in combat. The B-52 scene, as well as the young people singing a propaganda song, was totally unnecessary to the show's plot, which speaks volumes about naïve producers who think they're in charge when they are not."
Koutz wrote, "What wasn't shown were the U.S. crewmembers that were killed or the grieving American families that were left behind. The Department of Defense is encouraging Americans to honor and commemorate our Vietnam War veterans for the sacrifice that they made 50 years ago. The American Legion takes this obligation very seriously."
In response, CBS and "The Amazing Race" apologized for the scenes ahead of Sunday's edition of "The Amazing Race."
"Parts of last Sunday's episode, filmed in Vietnam, were insensitive to a group that is very important to us: our nation's veterans. We want to apologize to veterans -- particularly those who served in Vietnam -- as well as their families and any viewers who were offended by the broadcast," the statement said. "All of us here have the most profound respect for the men and women who fight for our country."
On "The Amazing Race's" Facebook page, viewers seemed divided over the reaction the segment has received. Some understood Hamilton's point of view, and noted how offensive they found the scenes.
"Glad they posted this as it was very offensive for a child of a Vietnam Veteran to see and hear that song!" said one Facebook user.
"I was appalled," said another. "I remember the (war) like it was yesterday and my family was deeply scarred by it. I'm glad they issued an apology, at least."
Others, meanwhile, said those offended were overreacting.
"Get over yourselves!" said one viewer. "This is a show to showcase the world, not to walk on eggshells because some a******s might get a tad too prissy."
"This was nice of CBS. I had two brothers who fought and served over there but I in no way found it offensive," said one Facebook user. "This Navy Mom will say it again, it's always good to see other countries and their cultures. Makes ya see just how GREAT our country truly is!"
A viewer named Debra tried to find a middle ground: "For those who say no reason to apologize, let's just put this another way -- have you ever said or done something personally wrong (or perceived wrong) that offended or bothered somebody. Perhaps a friend or acquaintance? When you find out you are the cause of their anger, do you apologize and say that wasn't your intention? Or do you say get over it?"
Both the American Legion's Koutz and the VFW's Hamilton have accepted CBS's apology, and so has Sen. John McCain.
"CBS did the right thing by apologizing for #AmazingRace Hanoi episode," the Vietnam war vet tweeted on March 25. "We all make mistakes -- the issue is closed."
CNN's Douglas Hyde and Brian Todd contributed to this report.

- Health Info
- Myringotomy
(Tympanostomy; Tympanotomy; Ear Tubes Surgery)
Reasons for Procedure
- To restore hearing loss caused by chronic fluid build-up and to prevent delayed speech development caused by hearing loss in children
- To place tympanostomy tubes—these tubes help to equalize pressure. It may also help prevent recurrent ear infections and the accumulation of fluid behind the ear drum
- To help treat an ear infection that is not responding to medical treatment
- To take sample fluid from the middle ear to examine in the lab for the presence of bacteria or other infections
Possible Complications
- Bleeding
- Infection
- Chronic scarring
- Failure of the myringotomy incision in the ear drum to heal as expected, which may result in frequent drainage
- Hearing loss
- Injury to ear structures other than the ear drum
- Need for repeat surgery
What to Expect
Prior to Procedure
- Blood tests
- Hearing test
- Tympanogram—a test that measures how well the ear drum responds to changes in pressure
- Examine the external ear and the ear drum with an instrument called an otoscope
- Arrange for a ride to and from the procedure.
- Do not eat or drink anything for at least eight hours before the procedure.
- Nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory medications (NSAIDs)
- Blood thinners
- Antiplatelets
Description of Procedure
|Copyright © Nucleus Medical Media, Inc.
How Long Will It Take?
Will It Hurt?
Postoperative Care
- If cotton was placed in the ear canal to absorb postsurgical drainage, change it regularly. (Drainage should end or reduce to a minimal amount within 2-3 days.)
- If you are given ear drops, use as directed. You will usually put three drops in each ear, three times a day for three days after surgery.
- If water gets in the ear after surgery, monitor for drainage. If drainage begins, use ear drops if directed by your doctor. If drainage continues for three days (or as directed), call your doctor.
- Take any medications as prescribed by your doctor.
- Use ear plugs as prescribed by your doctor while swimming or bathing, and avoid underwater swimming and diving unless instructed otherwise.
- Do not clean your ear after surgery or place anything other than ear drops, cotton, or ear plugs into the ear, unless instructed otherwise by your doctor.
- Ask your doctor about when it is safe to shower, bathe, or soak in water.
Call Your Doctor
- Signs of infection, including fever and chills
- Redness, swelling, increasing pain, excessive bleeding, or discharge from the ear
- Pain that you cannot control with the medications you have been given
- Drainage from ear continues for more than four days after surgery
- Decreased hearing
- Cough, shortness of breath, chest pain, or severe nausea or vomiting
- Any other new concerns
