Audio Slideshow: Visit the mission and hear the stories of those staying there.
By Fatimah Salami and Amber Tweedie
After being turned away from several homeless shelters for not fitting their criteria, 20-year-old Alex Samuelson sought out one more place where he hoped to temporarily call home, San Jose Obrero Mission.
San Jose Obrero is a Latino male homeless shelter in East Pilsen that finally gave Alex a place to lay his head and opportunities to rebuild his life.
"Everybody is equal here," said Samuelson. "We're all in the same boat. Just because you speak one language or both languages or just because you're one color it doesn't matter here. We're all brothers here."
San Jose Obrero began as an organization by Friar David Staszak in 1981 as a way to fight homelessness in Chicago's Pilsen neighborhood.

"It is hard to integrate two churches … and nobody is successful at that in five years," said Father Jim Collins, an associate Jesuit priest at St. Procopius Parish.
Located in Pilsen, a Lower West Side, Latino-dominated Chicago neighborhood, St. Procopius Parish consists of its title name church and Holy Trinity Croatian. St. Procopius Parish inherited a "dying" Holy Trinity Croatian in 2004, according to Collins.
Podcast: Father Jim discusses church integration issues. The song Lamb of God is featured throughout the podcast, first in English, then Croatian, Spanish, and once again in English.
St. Procopius Parish offers seven Sunday Masses: three at Holy Trinity Croatian and four at St. Procopius. Holy Trinity celebrates Masses in Croatian, English and Spanish while St. Procopius has three in Spanish and one in English.

Audio Slideshow: Chasing the American Dream
By Rima Thompson, Luz Garcia Cubillos and Sally Morrison
These are challenging times for Mexican-American immigrant communities, said Dr. Jorge Partida, psychologist and author of the book "The Promise of the Fifth Sun." The impact of the economic downturn has devastated some Americans, but even more so in the Latino community.
Hopes of achieving the American dream are dwindling in the reality of immense job loss and home foreclosures, due to the sub-prime lending crisis. Disheartened and defeated by the uncertainty of the future, many have retreated to Mexico. Yet, despite the despair, inspiring stories of hope, resilience and survival are rising from the suffering.

Audio Slideshow: Listen to poetry slam founder Marc Smith and the participants talk about the competition.
By Tessa Fegen, Kellen Winters and Vince Floress
As first-time slam poet Robby Q steps center stage onto the dimly lit arena, it isn't difficult to notice that he has his reservations.
"I'm nervous big time," he mutters into the microphone.
But with some quick crowd reassurance, Robby Q proceeds as he looks onto a rather multi-faceted audience who anxiously awaits the delivery of his debut performance. Among them sits Marc Smith, who may just be the biggest critic of them all.
Smith is the founder of the slam poetry movement, which ultimately helped him earn his the nickname, "The Slam Papi." He runs the popular slam at the Green Mill a jazz club in the North Side Uptown neighborhood, in a three-hour show every Sunday night.

Court documents detail deadly shooting at Las Cruces trailer park
Updated On: Jan 16 2014 04:51:33 PM CST
Andre Perez was working on his car while his sisters practiced violin on the steps of their Las Cruces trailer home Saturday afternoon.
Perez was shirtless, which drew the ire of his front-door neighbor, 30-year-old David Vallejos, and the two began arguing.
Marcella Perez told police that her brother went inside his home and retrieved a shotgun. She said he placed the weapon by the front door and returned to car, only this time, he had removed his pants and was working in just boxer shorts, which police said further agitated Vallejos.
Another argument ensued, and it quickly escalated.
Marcella Perez said Vallejos rushed at her brother, and that's when Andres Perez retrieved a retractable baton from his car and allegedly swung at it at Vallejos.
She said Valejos was able to take the baton from Andre Perez's hands, take him down, and begin beating him with the baton, hitting him in the head.
Marcella Perez told police she feared Vallejos would kill her brother, and she ran inside and grabbed the shotgun.
When she came back out, she dropped the weapon and ran to her brother. She said he was lying on the ground and was not moving.
Andre Perez then started getting up, Marcella Perez said, and picked up the shotgun.
She said Vallejos, who was still holding the baton, turned around and said, "You want more?"
Vallejos approached Andres Perez rapidly and was about 15 feet away before Andres Perez fired at him, hitting him, she told police.
Marcella Perez told police Vallejos fell to his knees before her brother fired another shot.
Another man, Edgar Castro, told police he also witnessed the shooting. He said he was helping his aunt move when he heard Perez and Vallejos arguing.
Castro said he stepped inside and came out to see Perez lying on the ground and Vallejo collapsing the baton.
Castro said he ran toward Perez and saw him pick up the shotgun.
Catro told police he told Andres Perez, "Don't do it." But Perez began pulling shotgun shells from the buttstock and began loading the weapon.
Castro said Perez shot Vallejos once, and then a second time when Vallejos was on the ground.
Several neighbors disarmed Perez.
Gabriel Dillenburg, who works for El Paso Electric and was doing repairs, said he ran inside the trailer park after hearing two gunshots.
He said he saw a man, Andres Perez, in boxer shorts and dripping with blood from his head.
Dillenburg said he saw a shotgun inside a car and told Perez to sit sown on a curb.
Dillenurg said he closed the car door and made sure Perez didn't leave before police arrived.
When the responding officer arrived on the scene, he said he saw a group of people around Vallejos, the baton on the ground and two spent 12-gauge shotgun shells near the body.
Officer W. Gonzalez said someone was trying to perform CPR on Vallejos before Gonzalez removed the baton and asked the people to back up.
Perez was charged with murder. He was booked in the Doña Ana Count Detention Center under a cash-only bond of $500,000.

Following a particularly rousing session of Question Period Wednesday, Prime Minister Stephen Harper referenced Seinfeld in telling Opposition leader Thomas Mulcair to "serenity now!"
"A message to Thomas Mulcair after today's QP: Merry Christmas and serenity now!" reads a Tweet by the Prime Minister, along with a link to a four-second YouTube clip featuring Seinfeld character Frank Costanza screaming "Serenity now!"
A message to @ThomasMulcair after today's QP: Merry Christmas and serenity now! ow.ly/g3ktT—
Stephen Harper (@pmharper) December 12, 2012
The clip is pulled from a 1997 episode from the sitcom where Mr. Costanza, misunderstanding the directions from a relaxation cassette, repeatedly screams the phrase during stressful situations. The Tweet was also forwarded to @AngryTomMulcair, a joke Twitter feed parodying the NDP leader's hot temper.
Forgot to CC: @AngryTomMulcair "A message to @ThomasMulcair after today's QP: Merry Christmas and serenity now! ow.ly/g3ktT"—
Stephen Harper (@pmharper) December 12, 2012
The messages are a rare bit of lightness for the Prime Minister's Twitter feed, which usually consists of political announcements, event commemorations and images from recent photo-ops.
Wednesday's Question Period, in which Mr. Harper played a larger-than-usual role, became particularly testy over discussions of the F-35 fighter and foreign ownership of Canadian resources, with Mr. Mulcair at one point alleging that the Tories had "sold us out" to Chinese ownership.
Following the exchange, Speaker Andrew Scheer called for increased calm in the House. "Lately, it appears that all sides have, at different times, strayed quite far from the flexibility,accommodation and balance that ideally ought to exist in this place," he said.

Arsenal are now very much out of the UEFA Champions League, provided they don't pull off the miracle to end all miracles at the Emirates Stadium. AC Milan were better than their opponents in just about every conceivable way on Wednesday night, obliterating them in a 4-0 romp. The pitch conditions at the San Siro weren't favorable to the Gunners, but they certainly aren't an excuse for terrible defensive mistakes and a lifeless performance.
It didn't take long for things to go badly for Arsenal. Kevin-Prince Boateng scored an absolutely stunning goal to put the Rossoneri ahead just 15 minutes in, taking a ball off of his chest and hitting a perfect volley into the back of the net off of the underside of the crossbar from 12 yards out.
Milan would take a 2-0 lead into halftime, scoring their second in the 38th minute off of some terrible defending. Zlatan Ibrahimović created the chance on a great run down the left, barely keeping himself onside as he ran onto a ball over the top of the defense. He played a cross into the center of the box for Robinho to nod in, and he was unmarked as he easily doubled his team's lead.
Laurent Koscielny was injured shortly afterwards and was substituted off for Johan Djourou just before halftime. Djourou and Thomas Vermaelen would make up the second of Arsenal's three central defense partnerships on the evening. All three conceded goals.
Arsene Wenger opted to start the match with Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain on the bench, despite the conventional wisdom that fast wide players do the most damage against Milan. With his team down 2-0 at halftime, he took off his other fast wide player, Theo Walcott, and brought on Thierry Henry.
Before anyone would have a chance to see how that worked out, Milan went up 3-0. Ibrahimović set up Robinho for the shooting opportunity again, though this one wasn't quite as clear cut. That is, before Vermaelen fell down, giving Robinho a clear path to shoot into. After 49 minutes, Arsenal led 3-0.
In the 65th minute, Arsenal created their first shot on target in the match. They would hit the target three more times, but this was far and away their best chance. On a well-worked counter, Henry flicked the ball into the path of Robin van Persie, who unloaded on a shot to the back post with his left foot. Christian Abbiati quickly got across and got a hand to the ball, pushing it aside to preserve the clean sheet.
A minute later, Arsenal's third central defense partnership was formed. Oxlade-Chamberlain finally made an appearance, replacing Kieran Gibbs. This moved Vermaelen over to left back and Alex Song back to central defense.
That partnership would give up their goal via a penalty kick. In the 78th minute, Djourou made a tackle on Ibrahimović that wouldn't have been out of place at a rugby or American football match. The referee correctly pointed to the spot and Ibrahimović converted to make it 4-0 and complete the rout.
If any good comes out of this, it's that Arsenal can now focus on finishing fourth in the Premier League and trying to win the FA Cup. This Champions League tie is over before it heads to London.

The 2010 Rising Star Award, sponsored by Live Design and LDI, will be presented to LD Ben Pilat on Friday, April 2, during a special event featuring lighting designer Jennifer Tipton at the USITT 50th Annual Conference & Stage Expo in Kansas City, MO. Ellen Lampert-Gréaux touches base with this talented young designer.
1. What is your training? Do you have mentors or influences?
I have an MFA in lighting design from Boston University and a BFA in theatre from Emporia State University. I need to give special thanks to Mark Stanley at Boston University, both for giving me the opportunity to prove myself and for the incredible opportunities I was offered while a student. My education included the artistic and collaborative aspects of lighting design, as well as the business and practical skills I would need as I transitioned to a career in the theatre. Since graduating, my work with other LDs has influenced me both as an assistant and a designer. I have worked with David Lander on a number of projects, and I am grateful for the opportunities he has given me as well as the knowledge he continues to share.
2. What is your favorite design to date?
Many times, shows with the least resources have revealed the most about my design philosophy. I recently designed a production of Dark Rapture in a small Off-Off-Broadway venue. This cinematic film-noir play called for more than a dozen different locations, but a small budget and limited number of lighting instruments required me to be incredibly specific about the choices I made. Working scene by scene, I designed each location separately, choosing a handful of lighting ideas that could communicate location and provide composition, while still providing basic illumination. Creating so many looks with a limited number of fixtures forced me to design with clean, bold stokes in a way I may not otherwise have done.
3. Do you have a specific design process? How about in collaboration?
I strive to work from both an instinctual and an analytical point of view. On the instinctual level, there are angles, colors, or cue placements that feel "right." I design first and foremost for myself. On the analytical side, it pays to be prepared. Knowing the source material, understanding its creator, and familiarity with historical context all help me catch clues about the lighting environment.
As a collaborator, I strive to be creative, honest, and smart. I always try to bring new ideas to the table. I have particularly enjoyed working on projects where the environment of the play is created by a team from the ground up—where there are no "givens." This allows me to explore how light interacts with the world of the play and pushes me to create a vocabulary that is integrated with the rest of the production.
4. Where do you see yourself in five years?
I would like to begin assisting on Broadway. I don't believe there is a substitute for that kind of experience, and it would allow me to work with people who are some of the best at what they do. At the same time, I hope to continue pursuing my own design career. As a former magician, I have always thought my background makes me an excellent candidate to design magic shows and would love to be a part of that process if the right opportunity presents itself. I also enjoy sharing my knowledge and experiences with students and have always considered teaching to be a possible career.
5. What advice would you give to someone who wants to get into lighting?
Be well-rounded, and have interests outside of theatre. Art, music, politics, and history are all prerequisites for having the conversations with directors and designers needed to create interesting work. I also recommend that people see as much theatre as possible. Contact the designers whose work you find particularly interesting, and ask if you can observe them for a few days of tech. Build a set of skills that will help you market yourself as an assistant; lighting programs like Vectorworks and Lightwright, advanced programs like Photoshop and FileMaker Pro, reading music, knowing a variety of lighting consoles, and having a good understanding of current lighting technology are all important. Finally, I think it is very important to be humble and admit when you don't know an answer. Always be willing to learn.

This is a conversation that has carried on for at least the last five years, and started almost immediately after the the Western Conference Finals loss to the Detroit Red Wings in the summer of 2008, and one that seems won't be ending anytime soon. The Dallas Stars have suffered for too long without a true "No. 1" defenseman and the frustration over this void on the team has built and built over the years, to the point where it seems as if some are desperate for anything at all to be done to correct this issue.
That mentality can be a dangerous game for teams to fall victim to.
A top defenseman is tough to define and therefore is tough to put an exact value on. Is it a big, shutdown blueline who can eat 25+ minutes, or a puck-moving defenseman with questionable defensive ability but with astronomical offensive potential? The best teams, obviously, have a healthy combination of the two and the rare defenseman is the one that embodies the best of both worlds and moves from merely being a "top pairing defenseman" to a "true No. 1 defenseman that a franchise can hang their hat on to help lead their team to glory.
There's no doubting that the Dallas Stars need one of these types of players. Alex Goligoski is perhaps, at best, a very good second pairing defenseman who has the freedom to lead the offense. Stephane Robidas has done his best as the de facto No. 1 for the Stars the past four years, but he's far from the top player the Stars need. Brenden Dillon shows promise and while he's playing well next to Robidas, he's still far from being a 25+ minute player. Jamie Oleksiak shows potential, but he's only five games into his NHL career.
So, what should the Dallas Stars do about this problem? There's a school of thought, that has been prevalent for four years now, that the Stars need to be aggressive in acquiring such a player and should be active in targeting potential top-pairing defensemen either through trade or free agency.
The problem is that such high-profile defensemen very, very rarely hit free agency. Ryan Suter is perhaps the latest example of a potential top defenseman hitting the open market and it took nearly $100 million to land him; Suter is good, but nearly everyone agrees he's not as good as that price tag would suggest -- but that's what the market was for such a player.
The next option, through a trade, is sometimes just as costly -- if not more. Typically, top defensemen do not become available through trade unless they are months away from free agency unless another team is willing to pay a hefty price for such a player.
I took a look back at the most notable trades involving top pairing defensemen, going back about five years.
|Traded With
|Brent Burns, '12 2nd round pick (#37)
|Devin Setoguchi, Charlie Coyle, '11 1st round pick (#28)
|Ryan Whitney
|Chris Kunitz, Eric Tangradi
|Ryan Whitney, '10 6th rounder (#162)
|Lubomir Visnovsky
|Chris Pronger
|Joffrey Lupul, Ladislav Smid, '07 1st round pick (#30), '08 1st round pick (#22) '08 2nd round pick (#53)
|Chris Pronger, Ryan Dingle
|Joffrey Lupul, Luca Sbisa, '09 1st round pick (#21), '10 1st round pick (#29), conditional 3rd round pick
|Brian Campbell, '08 7th round pick
|Steve Bernier, '08 1st round pick (#26)
|Eric Brewer
|rights to Brock Beukeboom, '11 3rd round pick(#87)
|Tomas Kaberle
|Joe Colborne, '11 1st round pick (#30), '12 conditional 2nd round pick (#54)
|Maple Leafs
|Brian Campbell
|Rostislav Olesz
There are a few instant conclusions to be made here, the first of which is that it's very rare that a truly great defenseman is ever traded. This list was pared down from one twice as long that listed "top" defenseman trades the past few years, and these were the top players left. It's also important to note that a number of these trades (Brent Burns, Jay Bouwmeester, Chris Pronger, Eric Brewer and Tomas Kaberle) were all made in advance of the player becoming an unrestricted free agent.
Thus, not only did the team give up a hefty fortune to acquire such a player but then had to pony up a hefty contract to keep that player with the franchise. The Bruins gave up a first and second round pick, along with Joe Colborne, only to lose Kaberle a few months later to the Carolina Hurricanes. The Ducks gave up Tangradi and Kunitz to get Whitney, who was later traded to the Oilers while Kunitz became a key members of a Cup-winning hockey team.
So, caution is warranted when pushing for a trade to happen sooner than later.
For the Stars to make such a move a few things must happen. First, the Stars must be willing to part with a first round pick that could very well end up higher than some of those relinquished above -- then a team must be willing to actually move such a player, and that scenario usually doesn't present itself unless the defenseman is a pending UFA with no hopes of actually staying.
Teams that go after such players, a possible "rental" that requires a relatively high price, are generally the teams in need of a final piece or two on defense for a hopeful postseason Cup run -- not a team, like the Stars, that is still in the middle of a rebuild while hopefully competing for the postseason. That doesn't mean that the Stars should not be looking to potentially upgrading the roster, but going after the true top defenseman is something that could prove to be too costly both in the short and long-term.
The Dallas Stars are in need of a franchise defenseman to anchor the blue line for years to come. Looking at the list above, it's tough to find players that possibly fit that description aside from, perhaps, Brent Burns. Even Brian Campbell, when he was traded in 2008 at the age of 28, played just 20 games with the Sharks before signing an 8-year contract with the Chicago Blackhawks.
That doesn't mean that good deals won't be available. This coming summer is going to be interesting in the landscape of trades and free agency as several teams are in need of dumping salary in order to get under the salary cap for next season. Teams like the Stars could have the opportunity to take advantage of other teams in cap trouble -- going back to Campbell, the Panthers picked up the then-31-year old defenseman in 2011 for a spare part.
Should the Stars be on the lookout for such opportunities? Absolutely. The franchise certainly has the assets to move to make such a trade, but would the Stars be willing -- and should they if they are -- to give up significant assets for a rental blueliner? As much as we'd like it to happen, teams just aren't willing to give up top defensemen under long-term contract and even then -- expect to give up more than a single first round pick in order to do so.
Whether the Stars are even willing to part with these assets is questionable, with GM Joe Nieuwendyk stating just how much he values his draft picks and prospects. The reason the Dallas Stars have struggled recently is because of the lack of tangible prospects in the farm system; now that these players are starting to move up, who are the Stars willing to part with in order to actually make such a move? We've seen over the years what the lack of first round picks has done to the franchise, is parting with these picks worth the risk of such a trade?
Trading for a proven No. 1 defenseman, who is actually under contract and isn't a rental, is something that rarely -- if ever -- occurs in the NHL. Too many teams are in too much of a desperate need of these players; the Stars are far from the only team facing such an issue. Trading for a player with the potential to be a top defensman is another discussion entirely, and one that could certainly be a realistic option for the Stars, but one that also carries with it significant risk.
See: Alex Goligoski.
If we look the top defensemen for the Cup-winning teams over the past few years we see a very legitimate trend: Nearly all of the top blueliners for the best teams in the NHL were drafted by that team: Drew Doughty, Brent Seabrook, Duncan Keith, and Kris Letang, just to name a few. Chris Pronger helped the Ducks to win the Cup in 2007, so perhaps it could be seen that the price tag to acquire him was then worth it. The Stars, however, are not the team the Ducks were when making that trade.
The Dallas Stars have focused on rebuilding the defense through the draft, just as the best teams in the NHL have done, and unfortunately the team is still a few years out from seeing that potential fully realized. This delay has led to impatience, especially in light of the defense's struggles this season, but history tells us that the Stars should be very wary of being too aggressive in searching for the next franchise defenseman -- they very, very rarely become available through trade, and the cost and risk exceed the benefits in most cases.
The point of all of this rambling is thus: The Dallas Stars finally have a number of young prospects and assets to move, along with a number of draft picks. Just because those assets may be available, does not mean the team should make a trade for the sake of making a desperate move to fix a problem that could have already been addressed through the draft.

Welcome to Boulder
Welcome to Boulder!
If you're visiting Boulder County this summer, you're in for a treat—several, in fact. Long revered for its gazillion things to do outdoors, the county also offers a host of cultural outings, festivals, art gatherings and musical events.
But first, let's touch on the great outdoors. Hmmm, where to begin? With hiking, biking, mountain biking, running, walking and handicap-accessible trails, Boulder County people are constantly on the move. You can be, too, if you turn to the Mountain Guide and Sports sections on pages 136 and 142, respectively. There you'll find listings for all types of trails to suit all abilities. You'll also find dog-friendly trails and parks that encourage you to bring Fido along. If the day's a scorcher, cool your heels in Boulder Creek, find an outdoor swimming pool or soak in Boulder Reservoir.
Boulder County is an arts hub—there are plays, concerts, screenings, dance performances, and gallery and museum shows every day in summer. So expand your cultural horizons and support our arts community by flipping to Arts Events on page 116 to see just how diverse its offerings are.
And what's summertime without a festival? Nothing, in our opinion! We've got a peach festival, a tea festival, an Asian festival, a Jewish festival, a Romanian festival, a Scandinavian festival, wine festivals and more. See the festivals listing in Local Events on page 96 for a complete roundup. For major arts festivals, turn to page 84.
If you're visiting on a budget, we've got you covered, with free things galore. Local libraries all offer free films, concerts, lectures, art exhibits and more. The farmers' markets are a good place to people watch and enjoy free samples of fresh, local fare. There are also free tours, nature programs, stargazing and senior activities. And of course, shopping doesn't cost a thing if you don't buy anything! Even if you do, you can still enjoy free entertainment by buskers and musicians on the Pearl Street Mall. You can also browse the many fine-art galleries on the mall and elsewhere around town. Turn to page 129 to discover just how many different galleries we have. For a fun outing with the kids, try one of our museums listed on page 132.
So get better acquainted with our bit of heaven by reading the many informative sections and articles in Boulder Magazine, including the story on farm-to-table dinners (which should definitely be on your to-do list while you're here) on page 30. Everything in these pages—and more—is also available on your smart phone at getboulder.com.
Enjoy your visit, and ya'll come back, now!

LED bulbs are particularly environmentally friendly because they do not contain any toxic chemicals. The most notable feature of the LED is its long-lasting light. The LED bulb can shine for more than 100,000 hours before its light dims. The outstanding lifespan of the LED is clear in comparison to the 6,000 to 15,000 hour lifespan of the compact fluorescent bulb. In addition to its shine, the LED bulb's lack of a filament and strong construction guarantee a long life. Furthermore, LEDs produce lots of light using a very little wattage, making them energy efficient while cutting your energy bill. Whereas a 60-100 Watt incandescent bulb produces roughly 15 lumens per Watt, a 5 Watt LED can produce up to 18-22 lumens per Watt. The LED bulb's capacity to produce large amounts of light by using minimal amounts of electricity is extremely promising.
LED bulbs can be found in nearly all lighting areas. LED PAR cans such as those by American DJ, Chauvet, and Optima can be found colorfully lighting up theatres and concert venues. The controllability and wide color spectrum possible with LEDs makes them a great choice for DJs and clubs. LED lighting is also common light sources in kitchens, candelabras, and flood lights. LEDs are currently found in most lighting applications and will likely expand into others soon. The only immediate difficulty with LED bulbs is their price. LED candelabra bulbs, for example, range from $18.06 compared to $5.89-$13.22 for CFL candelabra bulbs. Though LED lighting is still early in its development it promises to be a cost effective, environmentally friendly, and efficient lighting option.

The region temporarily existed as a Protectorate of His Imperial Majesty Emperor Norton I, with its capital being the city of San Francisco. Sadly, this term of benevolent ebullience lasted a brief two decades and ended c. 1880.
The United States is now the dominant country of North America. It arose as a nation only 225 years ago after a successful rebellion against the British government under King George III.
From a distance, it appears that the eastern coastlines of North and South America fit exactly into the west coast of Africa. In fact, about 250 million years ago these continents really were all connected in one land mass that we have named Pangaea.
With such a foundation in tectonic unity, there is no doubt that someday soon the people on every continent of earth will realize their fundamental similarities. Expect massive leaps in creative output in your area!

Carlson Labs Folic Acid 800 mcg - 1000 Tablets
Carlson Labs Folic Acid is an essential vitamin in the B-Complex group. Carlson Labs Folic Acid or vitamin B-9, is a nutrient essential for your body's metabolism and production of energy. Regular cycling can place large demands on your metabolism. Get plenty of Carlson Labs Folic Acid from the foods in your diet and take a multivitamin or a B-vitamin supplement to maintain your endurance and ensure proper growth and recovery.
Folic acid is a B vitamin needed for cell replication and growth. Folic acid helps form building blocks of DNA, the body's genetic information, and building blocks of RNA, needed for protein synthesis in all cells. Therefore, rapidly growing tissues, such as those of a fetus, and rapidly regenerating cells, like red blood cells and immune cells, have a high need for folic acid. Folic acid deficiency results in a form of anemia that responds quickly to folic acid supplementation.
Carlson Labs Excipients
VitaminsVitamins are organic compounds that are necessary for normal growth and maintenance of life. As we are unable to synthesize vitamins, we must rely on foods and food supplements to maintain adequate amounts in our body.
Thirteen essential vitamins have been isolated and these are divided into two categories, water-soluble and fat -soluble vitamins. The water-soluble vitamins include Vitamin C and the group of B-Vitamins. These water-soluble are not stored by the body and can be readily depleted. The fat-soluble vitamins A, D, and E remain in the body for longer periods of time.
MineralsAlthough minerals make up only a small fraction of total body weight (4-5%), they are essential for human metabolism. Minerals act as the catalysts for many biochemical reactions within the human body. They are involved in responses of the nervous system and muscles, the absorption and secretions of the body's fluids, and maintain a delicate water balance within the body. The bones and teeth of our body have high mineral contents which accounts for their hardness and rigidity. Minerals, like vitamins, must also be supplied by dietary means as we are unable to synthesize them in our body.

Mystery Unveiled: Freeski Star Simon Dumont Shreds First-Ever 'Cubed Pipe' at Squaw Valley
No one's ever seen anything like it.
Last weekend, a secret, mysterious photoshoot was rumored by those in the industry to have went down at Squaw Valley…one unlike any other in history. And they were right.
Enter Oakley Freeski star Simon Dumont.
The brainchild of O's Ripper, the 'Cubed Pipe' at Squaw was six years in the making. Built through the talents of Oakley-sponsored Snowpark Technologies, and supported by Red Bull. Simon's dream finally came into fruition. With a whole lot of planning – and a little bit of luck, that is.
Simon threw down for the buzz-surrounded shoot – and some sick images were the obvious result.
"So much went into it, and so much came together perfectly at the last second," Simon said, rockin' his Oakley gear and goggles. "Even if somebody wanted to do it, I don't think this could be done again."
He's probably right. Such a feature had never been conceived – much less shredded.
But don't take our word for it. See it for yourself below!

This weekends storm sent many rushing to the hardware store to buy what they needed to clear the snow.
One business in Bismarck was ready for those who weren't ready for the first winter storm of the season.
With temperatures still in the 40's and 50's last week it was hard to find anyone buying shovels or snow blowers.
"We were selling lawn mowers last week, we were still selling winterizer fertilizer and things like that, people were still doing fall and even summer things, but we went in a day, just switched over," Jeff Hintz said.
For those who weren't ready for the sudden change in weather, they found themselves without a shovel, or a working snow blower.
"When that first storm happens everybody goes out, and then it's the first time they start the snow blower, or try to and it doesn't start, they realize they can't find the shovel or the sidewalk salt, or anything they had from last year," Hintz said.
While stores have been busy with all of those who weren't ready for the snow, we found one homeowner who was prepared.
"It's something that we look forward to, and I got them ready at the end of the year, so that it was ready to go in the fall," Sandy Sunga said.
Just like Sandy Sunga, stores were prepared.
"We plan ahead, we have it all ready to go, they all have oil in the machines, we don't put gas in until somebody buys them, but they're assembled and ready to run out the door, we were ready for it," Hintz said.
Ready for whatever mother nature, blows their way.
Speaking of being prepared, Hintz says that while the shelves are stocked with inventory for the winter season, Monday they received their first SPRING shipment of Weber grills.

After more than a decade of selling smoothies in Belmont, the Jamba Juice at shut its doors for good on Monday, becoming the fifth business to close in the shopping center in two years.
Carlmont Shopping Center Operations Manager Ivano Pellegrini said on Thursday there has already been some interest in the space formerly occupied by Jamba Juice but a new business hasn't officially signed on.
The reason for the smoothie shop's departure from Belmont? Not enough profit.
Janice Ruis, a spokeswoman with Jamba Juice, said on Friday it's never easy to decide whether to close a smoothie location.
"We don't like to close stores," she said. "It's not a light decision."
She said that while she didn't know the exact reason for the Belmont store's closure, when Jamba Juice opts to shut down a location it's usually due to a lack of profit.
A sign taped to a window at the former Jamba Juice location reads, "This Jamba Juice Location is closed. We look forward to seeing you at our nearby location: Laurelwood, 1230 W. Hillsdale Ave., San Mateo."
"We're sorry to see them go," Pellegrini said. "They've been here for more than 10 years." Pellegrini added the place was a favorite after-school stop for local teens.
Carlmont Shopping Center has seen a number of businesses leave in the past several years, which Pellegrini said is due to a variety of factors. But, he added, despite the rumors floating around the mall, none of the closures were the result of increased rents.
In fact, Pellegrini said he's tried to accommodate the "Mom and Pop" shops by keeping rent steady. It just happened that the business' leases ended within a two-year period and business owners chose not to renew them, he said.
Carlmont Pharmacy, a Belmont staple for more than 50 years and the second most recent business to close at the shopping center, cited insurance rates as the reason for its . Carlmont Pharmacy closed at the end of March.
Pellegrini said a Verizon Wireless store will take its place, an agreement that was reached this week.
Other businesses that closed at the Carlmont Shopping Center include a jewlery store that closed about two years ago; , which closed on Dec. 31, 2010; and , which left the Carlmont Center in February but moved to Sixth Avenue in Belmont.
Pellegrini said the Carlmont Shopping Center has been family-owned for the past 50 years. His wife Norine Pellegrini managed the shopping center for 30 years before she passed away in 2002, and Pellegrini credited his wife with giving the shopping center a complete makeover.
"She turned it around," Pellegrini said of the Carlmont Center.
One of the main challenges with renting spaces at the Carlmont Shopping Center is the zoning for that area, according to Pellegrini. The shopping center, unlike the businesses that surround it, can only rent space to businesses that sell products and therefore pay sales tax, he said.
The city, however, is working with Pellegrini to find a solution to that problem, he said.
And Pellegrini is confident the vacant stores will be rented quickly and said there has already been some interest in a few of the spaces.

With every new app and social media comes more exposure and more dangers. As a parent do you know what Keek is or how Snapchat works? Chances are your children do.
"I can't think of a reason a 6-, 7-, 8-, 9-year-old would need to share a video," Detective Marcus Fizer with the Overland Park Police Department said.
But things aren't that simple. In a world driven by social media, most teens, and even younger, know more about technology than their parents, which is where the problem lies.
"It's not that you don't trust your kids, it's that you don't trust anyone else with your kids' safety," Fizer said.
A new app called Snapchat is creating quite a buzz. It's when a picture is shared between two people, but the sender can limit the amount of time the picture can be viewed.
Police said it's giving kids a false sense of security. They send a private picture of themselves to a friend and they think, after a few seconds, the photo will disappear and that's it. But that's not always the case.
"All the receiver has to do to save the images is record the screen or take a screen shot," Fizer said.
And that private photo is now in the hands of the receiver indefinitely.
Another up-and-coming social media is Keek, which takes things a step further.
"It can be very dangerous if you don't know who has access to it," Fizer said.
A keek is a video no longer than 36 seconds. Much like Twitter you have people follow you and your videos can be posted directly online for anyone to see. Keeking is extremely popular with younger children, the most vulnerable for predators to find and exploit.
"It's just extremely scary that children don't understand the dangers of whether it's a perpetrator that's looking to victimize them or if it's a friend at school or a bully who wants to use that information against them," said Sara Boatwright with Sunflower House.
Boatwright and the Sunflower House aim at educating kids and their parents about social media. She said, with things online always changing, parents need to know what's out there.
"It's important they are familiar so they know how to protect their kids against online dangers and also help to protect their online reputations," Boatwright said.
Both authorities and child advocates said the one constant they hear when dealing with parents after their children were victimized due to their online activity is that the parents didn't know what their children were doing. Police said, when that changes, so will the number of victims they see.

The Susquehanna River level will be unusually low for the General Clinton Canoe Regatta during Memorial Day weekend.
April has been a sunny month and the sun is high in the sky with a high evaporation rate this time of year. This combined with the record-breaking high temperatures early this week, and the river level could actually be one of the lowest on record by late May - unless we are lucky enough to get significant rainfall.
That would require a complete change in the weather pattern and is not likely.
As low pressure moves to our west on Friday, warmer air will return, along with variable cloudiness, some sunshine, and a few showers.
Highs will be in the low 70s.
On Saturday, a cold front will slide south of our region, and after the chance of a shower early in the morning skies will become partly sunny with a cooler northwest flow, but highs in the mid-60's will still be a few degrees warmer than normal.
The front will move well to the south on Sunday and mild, dry air will take over with partly to mostly sunny skies and highs in the low 60's.
As showers stay to the south, look for another partly sunny day on Monday and Tuesday with highs from 60 to 65 degrees.

- Weather Watch It's really uncanny how the very dry weather pattern has continued in this area despite the succession of major storms that have moved to the west and south.
- Weather Watch Now that north has become a synonym for sunshine and south has become a synonym for rain, there's no way that this extremely dry weather pattern can change at least for the next four weeks.
- Weather Watch March was the third straight month with below normal precipitation, and it looks like April will also turn out to be drier than normal.
- Weather Watch Temperatures were near normal in March, with precipitation around an inch below normal.
- Weather Watch On Friday a major storm will move to the Ohio Valley, while high pressure builds southward from eastern Canada. Skies will be partly sunny with highs from 55 to 60 degrees.
- Weather Watch When it's warmer to the north and cooler to the south, it's so easy to get into an extremely dry weather pattern in Otsego County. The weather forecast in last week's weather column was more optimistic than other local weather forecasts, but the weather was actually much better than even we predicted.
- Weather Watch The jet stream will shift southward this week and a series of low pressure systems will move well to our south.
- Weather Watch Exactly as we predicted at the beginning of the month, it was one of the driest Februaries on record in Otsego County and throughout most of central and eastern New York. Thanks to the extreme upside-down temperature pattern with much warmer weather in Montana than in Georgia, and strong winds on Monday and Tuesday, an extremely dry weather pattern will be the theme for at least the next two to three weeks.
- Weather Watch Exactly as we've been predicting for the past month, this is turning out to be an exceptionally dry February - one of the driest on record in central and eastern New York.

Then dip 4 slices cinnamon bread into the mixture, coating both sides. Place a nonstick frying pan over medium heat. When a drop of water sizzles as it hits the pan, add the bread. Sprinkle with cinnamon. Cook until both sides are golden brown, about 4 to 5 minutes each. Place 2 slices on warmed plates. Add 1 teaspoon powdered sugar and 2 tablespoons maple syrup to each and enjoy.

Yuma, Ariz. (13 On Your Side) - "None of them got any sleep last night," said a resident.
Though he does not want his face shown on camera out of fear of retaliation, a local man says he and his neighbors were forced to sleep with one eye open after shots rang throughout his Foothills neighborhood.
"I was pretty freaked out at first. I ran outside and I did see a few other people outside. I didn't know what was going on. I ran over to my neighbors to make sure they were okay."
He saw a car cruising up and down his street, then minutes later he saw another man running across his backyard.
"All I saw was one person running in my yard and within minutes a neighbor called me and said they saw someone running in their yard. This man wasn't in the vehicle or anywhere near the vehicle."
Shortly after Yuma County Sheriff's Deputies arrived they saw the same car circling the neighborhood.
Deputies pulled over the vehicle.
They let the driver go after questioning, but arrested 21-year-old Victor Medina. They found two guns inside of the car.
Medina is a convicted felon and is prohibited from possessing a gun.
Still residents believe a 3rd man seen running through their yards is also involved.
We asked deputies if that was the case. They tell us there is no evidence suggesting at this time that there's a third suspect involved.
Meanwhile this resident says while they do not have an official neighborhood watch, residents will do what they always do, look out for each others safety.
"Like I said the minute it happened we were all out checking on each other to see what was going on- We always check on one another."

In Malaysia, animal rights activists are demanding jail time for the owners of a boarding business described as a "pet hotel from hell." PetMD reports that over 300 neglected cats were rescued Sunday from two sites outside Kuala Lumpur. Nine cats were reported dead.
The local Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals released a statement calling for the facility operators to serve the maximum six month jail penalty for animal cruelty. They also suggest that the responsible parties "undergo psychiatric treatment and be banned from animal businesses and from owning pets for life."
The cats were boarded while their owners traveled in observation of Malaysian holidays. Upon returning, the cats' owners found both facilities locked and abandoned — with the cats inside. Authorities broke in and discovered that the animals were hungry, dehydrated and trapped in squalid cages. Many were sick or covered in urine and feces.
According to PetMD, police have questioned the two owners of the boarding business but no arrests have been made.
Animal rights groups in Malaysia have often criticized the government for being too soft on animal abusers. The current fine for animal cruelty is 200 ringgit or about 65 US dollars. Following news of the "pet hotel from hell," Veterinary Services Department head Abdul Aziz Jamaluddin has announced a plan to increase this fine to up to 100,000 ringgit ($34,000) by next year.

Again this article was from 2011.
I hope some this which was posted is maybe in effect now;

They also suggest that the responsible parties undergo psychiatric treatment and be banned from animal businesses and from owning pets for life.
I don't know and would love an update of course. These people were only being fined under $100. What a joke....!!!!
I wish we had an update.
Animal abusers are the ones who eventually graduates to be human abusers. It is a Fact. Found by statistically while interviwing the criminals in prosons every where. I wish the parents as adults , should & could teach their younger generations that brutalizing animals are not OK. Perhaps in the new school carriculum needs to include new subjects how to be kind & compassionate towards any living being on this planet. That includes the animals too.
My my, such a rush to judgement. I have heard only one side of this story.
I'm not Malaysian, I have no say in they're laws.
Farm animal abuse trumps this. i am very sympathetic to those animals. But people come first. How did this situation arise? Some people are raised with no respect for animals.
Some of us are raised with no respect for religion, does that give the church a right to burn us?
People first, I know. I'm a people myself!
These sick people need to live in the same conditions as these cats Not for a month or year, but for the rest of their miserable lives.
The owners should also be prosecuted for fraud. People paid for their cats to be well cared for on their holiday. They should get their money back with punitive damages - when you pay a professional to care for your animal temporarily, you should get what you paid for. I don't know what the law is on fraud in Kuala Lumpur but I hope it's a strict one!
This is a nightmare. So many people use professional boarding services and trust that their cats will come home healthy, clean, friendly, not traumatized by neglect and starvation. I hope they get prosecuted to the full extent of the law.
Maybe local people should think about asking trusted friends to look after their cats. It would be safer!
This world is full of crazies---animal abusers being amongst the worst. Jail 'em, stop them from having animals again, ever.
This is sick! Lock these people up in the conditions in which they kept the cats!

MARIETTA, Ga. (AP) - A metro Atlanta school board has voted to develop a system to pay teachers based on performance instead of seniority.
The Marietta Board of Education unanimously approved the performance-based pay system this week and officials say it will be implemented during the 2015-16 school year.
Board chairman Randy Weiner told the Marietta Daily Journal (http://bit.ly/15yajiE ) they sent schools superintendent Emily Lembeck to faculty meetings to let teachers know what the change will mean for them.
A Massachusetts-based nonprofit the district hired last fall analyzed the way the district uses its money and presented the board with a 68-page report on how the district could reconfigure teacher salaries and the benefits that could come with such a move.
Weiner says the district's goal is to attract and retain highly-effective teachers.

BATON ROUGE, La. (AP) — The LSU men's basketball team draws a tough foe for its opening home Southeastern Conference game as it plays host to the nationally-ranked Florida Gators today. Florida enters the game ranked No. 11 in the Associated Press poll and No. 9 in the USA Today Coaches Poll.
STARKVILLE, Miss. (AP) —Mississippi State's Dan Mullen has hired two defensive assistant coaches. The school announced yesterday that David Turner will be in charge of the defensive line while two-time Super Bowl winner Deshea Townsend will lead the cornerbacks. Turner coached the defensive line at Mississippi State from 2007-09. Townsend is a Batesville, Miss., native.
Marshall Henderson strolled into Tennessee's Thompson-Boling Arena and scored 32 points on Wednesday, leading the way as Mississippi pulled off a relatively easy 92-74 victory over the Volunteers. The scary part for future opponents is that Henderson didn't play particularly well. He was just 8 of 19 from the floor, including just 3 of 12 from 3-point range.
KNOXVILLE, Tenn. (AP) —Tennessee has been missing its hard-nosed defense during the Volunteers' two-game losing streak. The Vols will try to recapture their usual form on defense today at Alabama when they play their first road game in over a month.

The kindergarten class at the Collegiate School in Richmond is getting ready for November 6, also known as "Election Day".
The students have a big decision to make - which animal is their favorite?
It is proving to be a wild kingdom showdown between the bald eagle and the bobcat.
Many of these pint-size voters already know which contender can count on their support.
"The bobcat because it's cuter," said Amelia Chen.
"The bald eagle because its our national bird," said Harrison Baxter.
These five and six year olds are getting a lesson on the voting process without getting into politics. They are filling out the voter registration cards they will need on the big day because they will not be able to vote without it.
The students are also getting a crash course in using iPads. They will cast their votes on the tablet computers on Election Day.
"It is just important for the children to understand that they have the right to make a choice about something and that is the beginning of the process we want them to learn about, just that learning to have a choice and speak your mind on what you believe in and what you like best," said teacher Nicola Byford.
Teachers say these boys and girls will be learning something very important- that there is no right or wrong choice, and that there is a way to gracefully win or lose. It is a lesson school leaders say will come in handy by the time they head to the real polls in about 13 years.
The students will learn the results on the same day. Then, in May, they will head to Maymont Park to adopt the "winning" animal.
The school's first through fourth graders will head to the polls as well on November 6th, voting on everything from favorite book characters, to whether recess should be before or after lunch.

vacation rental description
Happily fit three generations under one roof - at Cinnamon Beach unit #144, everyone will stay happy. This over-sized condo home sleeps up to 11 guests! Better still, you'll enjoy all the comforts of home which includes a HDTV. Spoil yourself daily with the choice of beach and two pools, yet still save money over cramming your family into a hotel. This prized unit boasts ocean and golf course views.
Amongst the many rave reviews, one past guest enthuses she enjoyed "nothing but nice surprises" during her stay. With plenty of space and a secure balcony, this is the perfect pet-friendly accommodation.
From your very big fourth-floor balcony, watch golfers tee off on a course designed by Jack Nicklaus himself. At this height you're level with the distant ocean horizon and have a wonderful world of bright greens and palm trees in the foreground. Enjoy your family and friends' company on cushioned chairs around an outdoor dining table.
Even when hosting 11 guests, the open-plan living areas leave lots of room for cartwheels and dancing. The room's lovely atmosphere is equal parts tropical charm to warm-weather comfort. Floor-to-ceiling drapes, lush plants, deep and comfortable cushioned couches and arm chair are just a few of the inclusions. There's a big, square coffee table for pizza parties and the entertainment unit tucks the brand new HDTV away when not in use.
For meal times, there's a glass dining table top on handsome carved wooden legs. Six handsome upholstered chairs are available, with extra chairs on the balcony.
In the kitchen, rich new cabinetry sits above granite counter tops. Everything you could want is at hand: a coffee-maker, blender, side-by-side fridge/freezer with ice maker and even a double sink.
In the master bedroom, find warm linens in deep shades of gold. Majestic shades that come to life in the morning sunrise. The king-sized bed is brand new and private balcony access is a real treat. Enjoy lots of storage and the cool breeze of a ceiling fan at night.
The second guest room's buttery yellow tones keep moods bright. A queen bed and TV are provided. In the third bedroom an extremely flexible configuration is perfect for teens and children. Sleeping up to five guests, there are three single beds and one double. With a bunk bed set up there's still plenty of room for hanging out and watching TV. Finally, a sleeper sofa is hidden in the living room if required.
Should your guest list exceed eleven, unit Cinnamon Beach 144 is still an ideal option. Block-book it with two others on the same floor: Cinnamon Beach 143 is next door and Cinnamon Beach 142 very close as well. It doesn't get more convenient! We'd love to help find the perfect solution - or simply recommend restaurants and golf courses.
The Cinnamon Beach resort boasts 2 1/2 miles of private beach, an amazing ocean-front heated pool for adults, a second large heated pool for families with a gradual slope entrance for kids, a water "splash zone" for kids, a fitness center, a recreation center, a game room, and a selection of picturesque walking and jogging trails.
Our luxury condo is nestled among the immaculate fairways of the Ocean Hammock Resort in the exclusive gated community of Cinnamon Beach. The Ocean Hammock Golf Club is a private course known as 'The Pebble Beach of the East'. Minutes away from Ocean Hammock are numerous challenging public golf courses.

Pitino unveils special bourbon bottles
LOUISVILLE, Ky. (AP) — Nearly two months after winning an NCAA championship, Louisville coach Rick Pitino is giving fans a way to toast the Cardinals' success while raising money for the school.
Pitino unveiled commemorative Maker's Mark bourbon bottles on Tuesday bearing his face and achievements including Louisville's third national title and his upcoming induction into the Naismith Memorial Hall of Fame.
Calling the recognition from the Kentucky-based distiller "exciting," Pitino said he was pleased to help the effort toward building a planned $8 million academic center. Maker's Mark will begin selling 12,600 bottles on Friday to benefit the project that it has also pledged $500,000 toward.
Pitino also took a shot at Ohio State President Gordon Gee, who has made disparaging comments about Notre Dame and Roman Catholics.
Now at Little League — Babe Ruth jersey
SOUTH WILLIAMSPORT, Pa. (AP) — Little League Baseball's museum is now home to a jersey worn by Babe Ruth, considered one of the most expensive sports memorabilia items worldwide.
The gray wool jersey — a red "3'' stitched on the back — dates to 1934, when Ruth donned the uniform for a barnstorming tour of Japan.
Little League says the precious threads are on loan from a donor who is remaining anonymous. It arrived Tuesday in an armored truck with police officers watching nearby.
Little League vice president Lance Van Auken declined to disclose the uniform's current value, but did say it was insured for a "seven-digit" amount. It was sold at an auction in 2005 for roughly $771,000.
The uniform will be a centerpiece of Little League's soon-to-reopen museum.
