Three-Berry Pie with Crumb Topping Recipe
I first made this pie for my family because I didn't have enough of one kind of berry. Now, I bring several of these pies to bake sales...they're often purchased before I can even get them to the sale table!
- 1-1/2 cups fresh or frozen blueberries
- 1-1/2 cups fresh or frozen blackberries
- 1-1/2 cups fresh or frozen elderberries or raspberries
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 1 cup sugar
- 4 tablespoons quick-cooking tapioca
- 1 unbaked pastry shell (9 inches)
- 3/4 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/2 cup sugar
- 1/3 cup butter
- In a large bowl, sprinkle berries with lemon juice. Combine sugar and tapioca. Add to berries; toss gently to coat. Let stand for 15 minutes. Spoon into pastry shell.
- For topping, combine flour and sugar in a small bowl. Cut in butter until crumbly. Sprinkle over filling. Bake at 400° for 45 minutes or until filling is bubbly and topping is browned. Cool on a wire rack. Yield: 6-8 servings.

Excellent! Made the recipe as is using fresh blackberries and frozen raspberries and blueberries. Definitely would make again.
Reviewed Jun. 4, 2010
This pie turned out great! I didn't have any blueberries, so I used half blackberries and half black raspberries. Next time I might use a crumb topping that has some oatmeal in it. Overall it's a keeper!
Reviewed Nov. 26, 2008
Elderberry pie recipes are hard to find. This is the closest so far. But first I have to find some frozen elderberries which are equally hard to find. Is the tapioca meant to be used as a thickening agent?? If so, how about using corn starch??

The dedication of these hard working individuals supports the industry that brings in billions of dollars to New York City annually and provides countless hours of enjoyment for New Yorkers and tourists alike."

The adjutant general's office wrote in 1909, "No official record has been found in the War Department showing specifically that any woman was ever enlisted in the military service of the United States … during the period of the civil war." This statement was proven to be untrue and much information has been found on female Civil War soldiers in their obituaries.
DeAnne Blanton has written a fascinating account of many such female soldiers in her three-part article in the National Archives' publication, Prologue, "Women Soldiers of the Civil War," which can be read or downloaded from http://www.archives.gov/publications/prologue/1993/spring/women-in-the-civil-war-1.html.
Many of these women enlisted to be with their husbands and some were not identified as female until wounded and hospitalized and "discovered."
Blanton cites several documented examples of female soldiers and concludes, "The women soldiers of the Civil War were capable fighters. From a historical viewpoint, the women combatants of 1861 to 1865 were not just ahead of their time, they were ahead of our time."
Do any readers have women in the family who served in the Civil War?
New Illinois guide
The Illinois State Genealogical Society is proud to announce the introduction of its new "Insider's Guide to Illinois Genealogy." This comprehensive reference for genealogists and historians is a four-page, 8½-by-11-inch laminated guide with more than 130 links to websites covering 26 categories of genealogical research in Illinois. The categories include census research, vital records, adoption, marriage records, wills and probate, cemeteries, obituaries, court records, tax records, immigration and naturalization, land records, maps, military records, church records, Illinois pioneers, archives, newspapers, city directories, mailing lists, genealogical and historical societies, family trees, queries, and more.
This guide includes a helpful timeline from 1699 (when the French settled a mission in Cahokia) to the 1950s (when there were expanded highways and migration to the suburbs). A useful reminder of the general migration patterns (from 1800 to 1920) as well as general research strategies (which remind researchers "that not all records are available online") help make this reference indispensable for Illinois researchers.

Eagles Ranked Sixth in the Region
FORT MYERS, Fla. - The Florida Gulf Coast University men's soccer team has been ranked #6 in the South Region by the NSCAA after the second week of competition.
The Eagles faced opponents from the Mid-American Conference and the Big East Conference this past weekend, earning a 0-0 (2 OT) tie with Hartwick College and falling 3-0 to Syracuse. The 0-1-1 record earned FGCU a third-place finish in the Mayor's Cup XXXIII, which also featured UNC Wilmington.
The regional ranking is the second for the program, which began competition one year ago.
The Eagles will host their first home match this weekend as they welcome Seattle to the FGCU Soccer Complex on Sept. 12. The match is set to begin at 7:00 pm.

Cameron 'would like his children to go to state school'
David Cameron has talked up the "exciting" changes in the state school system and said he wanted his own children to benefit from the "massive innovations".
The Prime Minister today launched an initiative to turn the UK's 400 weakest primary schools into academies.
Speaking at a PM Direct event, he said:
I would like them [my children] to go to state schools, that's my intention, and I think what's happening in the state school system is really exciting.
Instead of having a set of comprehensive schools we've introduced an element of choice and competition which is leading to massive innovation. As well as academies we've also introduced free schools.
So what we're seeing in the state sector is something that we should have seen years ago which is the flowering of more choice, more competition, more diversity and crucially higher standards.
I want my children to be part of that and I'm very heartened by what is happening.

Tony winner Walter Bobbie (Chicago, The Submission) directs the New York premiere of the dramatic comedy, which began previews Nov. 15 and officially opened Dec. 4 at New York City Center – Stage I. Golden Age was seen earlier in separate productions in Philadelphia and Washington, DC. The MTC production was originally scheduled to conclude Jan. 6.
Golden Age also features Dierdre Friel, Coco Monroe, George Morfogen, Bebe Neuwirth (Chicago), Ethan Phillips, Lorenzo Pisoni, Will Rogers and Eddie Kaye Thomas.
According to MTC, "Its opening night of Vincenzo Bellini's new opera I Puritani in Paris, and the Italian composer is determined to win the adulation of not only his audience, but his colleagues and rivals as well. When the curtain falls, will a thunderous ovation cement his prominence? Or has Bellini unwittingly composed his own swan song? Blending 21st-century language with the timeless beauty of 19th-century bel canto opera, Terrence McNally's new play portrays the final act of an artist whose desire for greatness has eclipsed all else."
Read the Playbill.com feature about McNally and Golden Age.
The creative team includes Santo Loquasto (scenic design), Jane Greenwood (costume design), Peter Kaczorowski (lighting design), Ryan Rumery (sound design) and Tom Watson (hair & wig design). Cyrille Blackburn is the stage manager.
Neuwirth ("Cheers," Chicago, Sweet Charity) plays soprano Maria Malibran (Bellini's muse, late in her career); Morfogen (Ivanov) plays composer Rossini, Pisoni (Humor Abuse) plays swaggering baritone Antonio Tamburini; Rogers (as Bellini's companion and benefactor Francesco Florimo) and Thomas (as tenor Giovanni Rubini) were in Bobbie's cast of the 2011 world premiere of The Submission Off-Broadway; Phillips, playing bass Luigi Lablache, was in Broadway's November and My Favorite Year; Friel, as the wide-eyed soprano who gets a touching marriage proposal in mid-play, appeared in Broadway's Leap of Faith and Second Stage's Dogfight. George Morfogen replaces Abraham (who has a previous commitment) starting Dec. 11.

NEWBURYPORT – A petition for a use variance to enable The Northbridge Companies to continue with plans to build a 76-bed medical center for disabled adults on a site adjacent to property owned by Anna Jaques Hospital was unanimously approved by the City Council Tuesday night.
The approval clears the way for Northbridge to utilize Wallace Bashaw Jr. Way, which runs from Low Street to the property it plans to develop.
City officials say that council approval was required because the land, controlled by Anna Jaques Hospital, was zoned residential.
Reviews before several municipals board still must take place before the center can obtain final approval.
Wallace Bashaw Jr. Way borders part of the 11-acre parcel known as the Rindler property, upon which the developer is planning to build. No starting date for construction has been discussed.
Northbridge originally had proposed placing its access road off Toppans Lane, but the Burlington developer changed its plans when it encountered opposition from neighbors and hospital officials.
In a deal made public several weeks ago, Anna Jaques officials agreed to support Northbridge's development plans in exchange for land that will result in about 135 parking spots for the hospital.
Councilors voted 10-0 to grant the petition, with Councilor Ari Herzog absent from the special meeting.
In other action, the council narrowly (6-4) approved a special appropriation of $5,000 for the Jeanne Geiger Crisis Center and its work to aid abused women.
Much of the sum will be directed to overtime payments and other personnel costs that law-enforcement officials generate in aiding at-risk families, officials from the center said.
It appeared that all councilors agreed with the cause, but several stated that it is not the council's role to make contributions to nonprofit groups.
Councilor Tom Jones said that it could start an inappropriate precedent. Councilor Bob Cronin, a career police officer who said he has worked to improve conditions for women, stated that police forces provide 24-7 attention to residents' needs, and expressed concern about earmarking funds for overtime.
Voting in favor were councilors Ed Cameron, Barry Connell, Greg Earls, Allison Heartquist, Kathleen O'Connor Ives and Tom O'Brien. Voting against the appropriation were councilors Brian Derrivan, Dick Sullivan Jr., Cronin and Jones.

Pasadena: City of Learning
Pasadena: City of Learning is a monthly gathering of representatives from this community's major educational institutions -- from PUSD to PCC to Caltech -- plus JPL, arts and culture institutions, non-profit organizations with educational missions and the City of Pasadena.
P:COL encourages a climate for lifelong learning in Pasadena based on the unique resources here. It's a collaborative, community-building effort that has resulted in partnerships that otherwise may never have been possible.
For example, Scott Ward of Armory Center for the Arts is actively involved in grant-writing for new programs at Washington Middle School along with an advisory group made up of other institutions, neighborhood and community leaders, and community partners; and the Pasadena Education Network recently conducted a workshop to teach local parents to be effective leaders and volunteers in their children's elementary, middle and high schools, which impacts student achievement.
And, of course, there's this Saturday's first-ever competitive collaboration among Pasadena's institutions of higher learning.
This morning's meeting of P:COL was in the Crawford Community Forum at Southern California Public Radio's new headquarters on South Raymond Avenue, followed by a tour of the KPCC studios.
My long-time friend Larry Mantle was in studio preparing to go on the air with his daily "AirTalk" show, and he came out and gave me a hug when he saw me with the tour group. He's celebrating 25 years with KPCC!
Larry and I go way back to the days when he was the original moderator on "City Beat" in the early 1990s.
My most fun experience with Larry: When he and Larry Wilson of the Pasadena Star-News graciously agreed to appear together in the Pasadena Follies a few years ago as co-anchors of a TV news broadcast during an earthquake. The skit was really cute (if I do say so myself), along with singing and even dancing. They were really good sports. I wish I had the photos at my fingertips! I do have it on video if you want to stop by sometime and take a look.
The photos of the meeting this morning are mine. Many thanks to Terry Miller of the Pasadena Independent for the photo of SCPR, and to KPCC for the photo of Larry Mantle.

I'm sure the new radio facilities are a huge improvement. Still, I would have worked much harder to keep/build the new facilities on campus; in the higher education environment. To keep the feel of a college radio station.

If you had a Bank of America account with a debit card between January 2001 and May of this year, you may be due some cash.
The nation's largest bank has started contacting customers who may be entitled to a refund. It recently reached a class-action settlement over the way it charged overdraft fees. Most of the other suits are continuing to work their way through federal court in Florida.
Bank of America agreed to set up a $410 million fund to settle the lawsuit. The money will be used to pay back customers who were charged overdraft fees as a result of the company's policy of processing debit card transactions based on the size of the transaction, rather than when the purchases occurred.

In case you had any doubt about where Hollywood suits stood on the issue of art vs. commerce, we'll turn the microphone over to Walt Disney Animation Studios' chief technical officer Andy Hendrickson.
Speaking at the Siggraph conference over the weekend, Hendrickson addressed the growing concern of movie ticket sales remaining relatively stagnant for the past half-decade or so, even while studios continue to pump out product. His solution? More tentpoles. But apparently, getting a decent script in place before they spend hundreds of millions of dollars doesn't really matter. "People say 'It's all about the story,'" Hendrickson said. "When you're making tentpole films, bullshit."
But he doesn't stop there and points one of 2010's worst movies and also greatest financial success -- "Alice In Wonderland" (over $1 billion worldwide) -- to prove his point. "The story isn't very good, but visual spectacle brought people in droves. And Johnny Depp didn't hurt," he said. We guess he wasn't in the meeting when they decided to cancel "The Lone Ranger."
We'd love to say that he's wrong, but sadly, Hendrickson is kind of right. With 3/4 of the year done, the top ten domestic films of so far of 2011 include: "Transformers: Dark Of The Moon," "The Hangover Part II," "Pirates Of The Caribbean: On Stranger Tides," "Fast Five," "Cars 2" and "Kung Fu Panda 2." In fact, seven out of the top ten earning films of the year are sequels. And while Hendrickson is probably being a bit facetious when he says story doesn't matter, he's not entirely off base -- story doesn't matter when you're telling the same one over and over and over again. Frankly, it's pretty depressing, but at least someone at Disney had the stones to step up and at least admit "Alice In Wonderland" was ridiculous. [Variety via Vulture]
Daniel | August 17, 2011 10:17 AM
You mean Fast Five shouldn't be on a list of the top ten domestic films when it is? They didn't say the film didnt have a plot, they said it was one of top ten domestic films.
Benjamin | August 17, 2011 6:58 AM
No reason Fast Five should be on that list. Despite the stigma attached to the title, the film was very plot driven, and that plot wasn't half bad.

East County middle school students take to the stage
Date: April 30, 2009
by: Pam McTeer
MANATEE COUNTY — Two East County middle schools are ready to bring the tales of Dr. Seuss and Mulan to life through music.
About 250 students from Haile Middle School and a handful from Freedom Elementary will bring the whimsical but lesson-oriented stories of Dr. Seuss to life this weekend with their presentation of "Seussical Jr."
Two casts will be performing at 7 p.m., May 1-2 in the cafeteria at Haile, 9501 S.R. 64 E. The one-and-one-half hour musical features musical styles from Latin to pop to swing and R&B. The story is a compilation of several Dr. Suess stories including "Horton Hears a Who," among others, and introduces the audience to the accounts and personalities of Horton the elephant, JoJo, Gertrude McFuzz, Lazy Mayzie and all the Whos of Whoville and other characters.
"It is just a very entertaining musical," Haile choral director Michael Peacock said. "It's got a lot of great music, even though it's geared toward middle and elementary school audiences. It's got a lot of life lessons that really come to life."
Students at Nolan Middle School will light up the stage with performances of "Mulan Jr." at 7 p.m., May 8-9, at the school, 6615 Greenbrook Blvd.
The musical follows the story of Mulan, a girl from China who disguises herself as a man to serve in the Chinese army in place of her ill father. While serving her country, she realizes that she has value and can overcome her fears to help save China.
"It does follow quite closely along the Disney version," chorus/drama director Marilyn Branning said. "We've had to come up with a way to create an avalanche where the Huns are buried in the snow. We have a very talented cast. All the students who are in the production really want to be in the production and perform."

PEORIA, Ill -- Home sales are up in the Peoria Area.
According to the Peoria-Area Association of Realtors, Third Quarter sales this year show continued improvement.
Sales of single-family homes and condominiums are up 12.8 percent-- or about 160 more unit sold-- compared to the third quarter last year.
On average, home prices are up and days on the market are down, which are positive signs for sellers.
New association president John Purple says although September sales were slow, the Peoria-area has seen a better-than-average economic recovery overall.
"We did not see the huge prices increases that were seen in other parts of the country, therefore, we didn't see a major market crash either, so we had less ground to make up," Purple said. "We have a pretty strong job market with Caterpillar and the hospitals in the area. They're consistently moving people out in the housing market, and of course interest rates are historic lows."
John Purple says fourth quarter sales are expected to be a little slower, with the holidays and cold weather as contributing factors.

PITTSFIELD, Mass. – Friends and family of the two men who died in a car crash on Tuesday in Pittsfield gathered Friday night at Park Square to pay their respects, remember, and mourn the loss of two people that were loved so dearly.
In the cold and in the dark, lights began to shine in remembrance of 37-year-old Ernest Duck, Jr. and 34-year-old Tariq Sally.
"They were my world, best friends over 20 years," said friend Cynde Cibelli.
Cibelli says Tuesday was a blur.
"I was the first one at the hospital, and I don't know, I still don't believe it," she said.
Shortly before 3 p.m. Tuesday, police say the car the two were in was headed down Second Street at a high speed. Eyewitnesses say they saw it run stop lights, cross over a busy East Street before slamming in to the front of Pittsfield High School.
"I have to believe it but I don't want to believe it," said Cibelli.
"I just broke down. It's a lie, it's a lie, stop lying," said Cristina Choa, Duck's fiancée, as she describes getting a phone call about the accident. "I'm still waiting for him to walk in the door."
She, along with about 80 people, lit candles, wore shirts of remembrance, and prayed in downtown Pittsfield Friday night.
"He [Ernest Duck] was loved everywhere, this whole community knew him, loved him," said Choa. "He had the biggest heart there was, I don't know anyone who had a bigger heart than him."
"It feels good to know that everybody is here to love him the way he loved everybody else," added Cibelli.
Still, the pain of losing a loved one lingers for those who knew the men.
"I want him to be remembered as an angel and I love him," said Cibelli.
NEWS10 ABC reached out to the Pittsfield Police Department for an update on what might have caused the crash that claimed the lives of these two men. Still, no word on what led to that violent crash.

Even if that polish manifests itself in a dress slightly more offbeat than classic or more modernist-cool than traditional, it's all about striking the right style balance between sophisticated and less formal at the wedding rehearsal and dinner. And while the occasion certainly doesn't warrant anything over-the-top fancy, it's not really the time to take your sexiest LWD for a test drive either. So, we've rounded up some of our favorite dresses (the prettiest white shifts, dreamiest lace confections, and a few quirkier nonwhite options, too) perfect for the wedding rehearsal — and beyond. Click on to see and shop them all now. What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 How would we describe this Notte by Marchesa Strapless Silk Dress ($695) in one word? Try "dreamy." The jeweled beading along the bodice is a strong nod to elegance that feels just princess-y enough without going overboard. 1 / 23 What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 We love the asymmetrical cut and kimono-inspired feel of this Mango Metal Plate Dress ($100). 2 / 23 What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 We love this Va Et Vien Kauai Dress ($800) because it's a balanced combination of free-flowing (just look at the relaxed asymmetrical hem!) silhouette and intricate details. With a pair of muted gold lace-up sandals, this dress has the potential to be the chicest take on bohemian styling. 3 / 23 What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 For the girl who wants something laid-back but superpretty, we've got just the dress for you: Shoshanna's Lace Belinda Gown ($550) is a maxi dress at heart, but thanks to pleating and a floral-detailed finish, it feels very elegant, too. 4 / 23 What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 With this Zac Posen Long-Sleeve Wide V-Neck Dress ($2,290), you get a formfitting silhouette and a serious nod to an earlier era of cocktail dressing. 6 / 23 What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 We can't wait to get our hands on more than a few pieces from the Kate Young for Target collection, and this bow-tie strapless cocktail dress would do just fine at a rehearsal dinner. Style it with a pair of classic gold earrings and low heels for a refined finish. Reminder: the collection debuts in stores and online on April 14! 6 / 23 What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 Summer sophistication comes easy with this Tibi Emme Halter Dress ($465). Just add a great pair of strappy heels. 7 / 23 What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 It's all about the details on this RED Valentino Gem-Embellished Brocade Dress ($726). Just look to the floral-adorned sleeves and glimmering silver threading along the brocade for proof. 8 / 23 What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 Between crisp skirt pleating and a sleek black contrast at the neckline, this Rachel Zoe Braden Pleated Gown ($625) was made for the minimalist. 9 / 23 What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 Light, airy, fuss-free, and in the girliest pink — we couldn't think of a sweeter way to spend (and style) your last night as a "single lady." Thanks to the J.Crew Collection Lace Slip Dress ($298), you can easily balance a flirty sensibility with a chicer one. 11 / 23 What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 There's something romantic — in a much sexier way — about this curve-enhancing Zimmermann Rising Floral Panel Dress ($685), and we think it has everything to do with the mesh detailing throughout. Don't get us wrong; this dress is still very much a ladylike choice, but for the girl who wants to nail the element of surprise, here you go. 11 / 23 What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 For the girl who can't part ways with her darker hues, try this sleek Reiss quilted fit-and-flare dress ($360). Style it with a white jacquard blazer and kitten heels, and you've got a sophisticated outfit at hand. 12 / 23 What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 This Thakoon Blackbird Print Shirtdress ($1,190) is not your average shirtdress, but the gorgeous bodice and structural neckline and sleeves certainly give this dress its nighttime-polished edge. 13 / 23 What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 While on its own this strappy draped dress from Zara ($90) may seem a little casual, it has serious tropical wedding destination potential. Dress it up with a pair of statement earrings or a collar necklace, and then add a pair of metallic sandals. 14 / 23 What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 With LRK's Dita Illusion Peplum Dress ($378), you get polish, femininity, and structure in one. Plus, a peplum silhouette bodes well with enhancing your curves in the most flattering way possible. 15 / 23 What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 It may look draped and relaxed, but this AllSaints Blossom V Dress ($280) is actually quite flattering. Between the strategically cinched waist detail and oversize watercolor florals, it's a look that draws attention to one's silhouette rather than overwhelm it. With white ankle-strap sandals and a long gold pendant necklace, this is the perfect dinner dress solution. 16 / 23 What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 The By Malene Birger Siamue Lace and Silk Dress ($615) is everything a bohemian bride-to-be would want in a rehearsal dinner dress. It's not as traditional, it's loose-fitting but not sloppy-looking, and the layers of lace look so beautiful. 17 / 23 What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 The body-con silhouette of this Warehouse Lace Overlay Pencil Dress ($108) is just the right amount of sexy, and we're loving the slick two-tone contrasts. 18 / 23 What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 This Free People Painted Lady Maxi Slip ($148) comes in eggshell yellow and black, and while on the relaxes side, it's undeniably feminine and sweet. Pair it with a longer pendant necklace, a swept-back bun, and sleek ankle-strap sandals, and you're ready for entertaining. 19 / 23 What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 You don't have to veer far from the all-white palette, and this Club Monaco Lanna Dress ($170) takes the prettiest stance on a soft mint hue. For extra shape, you can add a bejeweled belt (perhaps, a bow-tie version), too. 20 / 23 What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 This is one way to take on the season's ruffle trend, and it's as chic — and as contrasted — as it gets. Say hello to the Halston Heritage Colorblock-Ruffle Strapless Dress ($475), which impresses upon the modernist a cool two-tone palette and a structural silhouette. 21 / 23 What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 How gorgeous is this subtly sexy cream lace midi dress from ASOS ($50)? The longer length and three-quarter-length sleeves provide the demure angle, but the deep V-wrap from the back is undeniably sexy. 22 / 23 What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 For the girl who wants to show off her legs — in an appropriate way — try this MSGM Ruffled Shift Dress ($227). Its crisp white finish paired with a shorter hemline and asymmetrical winged sleeve provides enough sophistication to offset the skin-revealing note. Bonus: it also comes in a soft pink hue! 23 / 23 30 12 18 1 0 Read More Spring FashionDressesWeddingShopping Wedding Have a Bomb.Com '90s Bachelorette Bash! 6 hours ago This Disney Prince Hopeful Proposed to Every Disney Princess 1 day ago 6 Unconventional Ways to Dress Your Bridesmaids 1 day ago Magical Wedding GIFs That Truly Capture the Moment 1 day ago 15 Ways to Wear Flowers in Your Hair at a Wedding 2 days ago 6 Creative Ways to Remember Your Wedding Day 2 days ago Spring Fashion Chloë Moretz Isn't the Only One With Premiere-Worthy Style 1 hour ago There Is Something Special About This Week's Best Dressed Stars 4 days ago Plain vs. Prints — Which Celebrity Side Were You on This Week? 1 week ago Did This Week's Top 10 Call Each Other Before Leaving Their Houses? 2 weeks ago These Dresses Are Good, but the Accessories Are Better 2 weeks ago 10 Women Who Mastered the Art of Coordination 3 weeks ago Get a Personalized Fashion & Beauty Newsletter!

The Federal Demonstration Partnership (FDP), a Washington-based association of federal agencies, academic research institutions, and educational and/or research policy organizations, recently released an executive summary of its ARRA Administrative Impact Survey conducted in 2010-2011. Befitting its goal of streamlining the administration of federally sponsored research, the FDP asked its members to take part in a survey on the administrative and financial impact of American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009 (ARRA) funding on awardees.
The purpose of the survey was to document and quantify the administrative impact on FDP members - UMN being one - of the ARRA-specific requirements for recipients. Awardees of ARRA funds were required to comply with such new requirements as reporting jobs created and retained and quarterly progress reporting. In addition to completing these requirements, substantial time and effort was expended by staff to identify and understand the requirements and to train other faculty and staff members.
Conducted between October 2010 and June 2011, the survey drew responses from 100 FDP members, awardees of $7.2 billion in ARRA awards. FDP found that many (approximately one third) hired, on average, three full-time staff members to handle the additional workload. Those who did not or could not add staff relied heavily on reallocating current staff members or increasing work hours. FDP also found that PIs from the responding institutions spent 5,750 hours on progress reporting for ARRA awards - a figure they believe is understated. In total, the respondents reported $91.7 million in administrative costs between FY 2009 and FY 2012, amounting to an average of $7,973 per ARRA award. The University of Minnesota reported nearly $785,00 in administrative costs related to ARRA awards over the four year time period.
Together with key recommendations from the respondents for reducing the administrative burden of ARRA reporting, FDP hopes these these results will be used by the U.S. Office of Management and Budget, legislative bodies, and others involved in the development of transparency, or other ARRA-like, requirements (such as the proposed Digital Accountability and Transparency (DATA) Act) to better understand the potential impacts of such requirements on research institutions. To read a copy of the summary, visit the FDP website.
According to data gathered by the Association of University Technology Managers (AUTM) from its annual survey, universities completed more licensing deals, filed more patent applications, and formed more start-up companies in FY 2010 despite a faltering economy. The AUTM released highlights form its AUTM Licensing Activity Survey Summary for FY 2010 which drew responses from 183 U.S. institutions, including 155 universities. (full results will be released in late November). Increases over FY 2009 were noted in the following areas:
It remains to be seen whether these increases will continue or the tide will be reversed over the next several years as the provisions set out in the Leahy-Smith America Invents Act (AIA) are implemented. The legislation, signed into law just shy of two months ago, will move the U.S. "first-to-invent" patent system to a "first-inventor-to-file" approach for applications filed March 16, 2013.
For a brief look at the potential impact of the AIA specifically on colleges and universities, see a recent article in The Chronicle of Higher Education, "To Protect Your Next Bright Idea, Mind What You Say and When You Say It".
Researchers interested in the effects of a changing global climate on human health are encouraged to apply under the National Institutes of Health's (NIH) Climate Change and Health: Assessing and Modeling Population Vulnerability to Climate Change (R21) program. As part of a ten year commitment made by NIH and, more specifically, by the National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences (NIEHS), the ultimate objective of this FOA is to identify who is at the greatest risk for adverse health effects due to climate change and why, and what strategies in health care, emergency services, land use, urban design and settlement patterns can implemented to protect the most vulnerable.
Under the program, NIEHS funds small research applications to assess and characterize the differential risk factors of populations that lead to or are associated with increased vulnerability to exposures, diseases and other adverse health outcomes related to climate change. Competitive applications fall into one of two major categories:
Applicants are expected to assemble diverse, multidisciplinary teams with at least one health scientist and one climatologist on board as well as researchers with expertise in areas such as geography, mathematical models, economics, demography, and the social and behavioral sciences. Partnerships with community-based organizations, public health officials, policy-makers, health professionals, and others as appropriate to the proposed project are encouraged as well.
Applications are due by May 24, 2012.
Watch for the next issue of CFANS Research eNews which will feature a new, streamlined design and all the same research-related news and information.
The White House Office of Science and Technology Policy (OSTP) is seeking feedback from the scientific community on Building A 21st Century Bioeconomy (pdf) to assist OSTP and other federal agencies as they develop a National Bioeconomy Blueprint. The Blueprint will outline Administration-wide steps to harness biological research innovations to meet grand challenges in health, food, energy, and the environment and spur job growth. Send your comments and suggestions by December 16, 2011 to email@example.com.
The University will soon be making a new product from COS (Community of Science) available for use by UMN faculty and staff. Currently, the U provides access to the searchable COS Funding Database, one of the most widely used databases of funding opportunities among research institutions, as well as the COS Expertise Database.

Some families might not be too keen to watch a brother and sister swear at each other on television as they try to rescue their failing family restaurant.
But the family that owns a Garner bar welcomed a couple hundred people over to their place to watch it all go down on multiple flat-screens. They even held raffles and giveaways during the commercial breaks.
The episode of Spike TVs Bar Rescue featuring the transformation of Garners Characters Quarters into MoonRunners Saloon premiered Aug. 10. Owner Charlie Alexander said the event drew 250 people, with a lively atmosphere to watch the familys flaws dissected by the shows blustering bar expert and star Jon Taffer.
The atmosphere in this place was phenomenal. Having everyone come out and support us, said manager and co-owner Guy Wavra, Alexanders son-in-law. It was a great night for us, it really was.
He also admitted: Any time you watch yourself on TV its kind of a weird experience.
The owners, blunt, straight-talking Long Island natives like Taffer, have consistently said they had nothing negative to say about the experience. The show vividly depicted a family struggling to make a bar work, and in return they received a free makeover, publicity and crash-course expert advice on how to fix their business.
The relationship between Wavra and his sister Alex Basso-Wavra, a waitress, was on prominent display. The episode showed Basso-Wavra making several blunders and Wavra profanely chewing her out, bringing her to tears at times. Taffer criticized both her errors and Wavras training and abrasive managing.
Obviously any time youve got 30-plus years of experience telling you there are things you can do to improve, you take notice of that, Wavra said.
While one bartender overwhelmed by the pace of a stress test was let go, Basso-Wavra remains at the restaurant, and Wavra said their working relationship has much improved, adding that nothing is fixed overnight. Alexander noted that theyre siblings, and said he knew that the show, by nature, wouldnt sugarcoat anything.
Its tough to hear the things that are said, but its a reality show, Alexander said.
While the family vouches for its reality, a previous episode of the show featured a Raleigh bar and brought accusations of actors and coaching. A manager at Cashmere rebranded Dual Ultra Nightclub on Glenwood South insisted that producers coached bar employees to get them to say certain things. The owner acknowledged that different takes were used and that it was exaggerated, but mostly its true.
Wavra said he couldnt speak to other episodes of the show, but said in this episode, nothing was scripted, nothing was staged, nothing was prompted. Some scenes involved second takes because cameras didnt catch the original exchange. But he said the emotions and conflicts were real.
I think thats what made our show so successful and generated such support, Wavra said. I think thats the reason Bar Rescue liked it.
Characters Assassination
One aspect of the show was definitively real: the rebranding.
The episode later named Characters Assassination hammered the bars original theme. With servers dressing in random costumes and a yellow logo with a goofy font that seemed to imply a child-centric establishment, the image of Characters Quarters confused a lot of people. Taffer called it stupid.
During the show, the family said its retirement plan was losing up to $3,000 a month and they had invested about $350,000 in the venture.
Taffer insisted the Yankees go with a more southern bar theme. The show installed a new name and logo, wooden paneling all over the bar, themed décor, and new moonshine cocktails. Gone was the cartoonish veneer on a site along U.S. 70 that has confused drivers as several bars opened and closed in recent years.
Alexander praised Wavras work creating an entire moonshine cocktail menu, including apple pie and peach pie moonshine drinks. He said he cant find another bar in the area that goes through the process to get genuine moonshine approved by the ALE and ABC board.
Theyre serving flavored moonshine you can buy in stores, Alexander said of places like the Foundation in downtown Raleigh. I dont see them going through the process (to get real moonshine). It wouldnt be worth it for them. This is our theme, our brand.
Local craft beers and a few southern-inspired items now grace the slimmed-down menu, though Wavra said much of the food remains the same.
Sustaining a publicity-bump
While some bars rebounded after their rescue, others have failed anyway, though some did so undoing makeovers and disregarding advice. And in some drowning bars, it stands to reason that less than a week of training with trainers at least partly focused on providing good TV might fail to permanently fix all potentially fatal flaws. But MoonRunners believes it doesnt fall in that group.
I dont think its going to be a flash in the pan, Alexander said. We really dont have any worries about (people coming back). Theyre gonna. I dont mean that to sound cocky, but its what were hearing in the dining room, that people are going to come back because they are enjoying it.
Wavra said business has been up since the rebrand and suspects a post-show publicity bump will help even more. And he, too, thinks the bar can pass the ultimate test: keeping customers coming back after the fanfare has died down.
Were here. Weve survived through some tough times. Most people would have shut their doors, Wavra said. If you cant get people to come back you shouldnt be in business.

A herculean heave of the discus by Oakdale High freshman Hannah Chappell is the top headline amongst a heavy field of talented spring athletes at OHS. Following is a summary of recent results.
In a week where the top honor could have easily emerged from several spring sports athletes, the Oakdale High baseball team made it impossible to single out any individual. The team rallied behind tremendous pitching and timely hitting to complement flawless defense en route to back-to-back victories over previously unbeaten Manteca.
ONLINE EXCLUSIVE - The fate of Oakdale High's varsity girls soccer team will be decided during Tuesday's showdown, April 30, at rival Sonora.
The situation was dire, but clear as the iridescent blue water contained within the Oakdale Aquatic Center on April 19.
It doesn't get much better than this.
The Sonora-Oakdale High rivalry has only one year left, and Mustang swimmers made the most of their most recent meeting with boys and girls victories on April 19 to award the program sole rights to the Valley Oak League boys title and a girls co-champoinship with Ripon.
If Oakdale High's varsity softball team had played Sierra's No. 17 nationally-ranked squad in the pages of a cascading flipbook on April 12, they wouldn't have had a chance.
Only Vizzini from the 1987 film The Princess Bride could accurately explain the latest escapades of Oakdale High's softball program.
April games in the 2013 Crown Classic baseball tournament hosted by Valley Christian High were like dependable tires - no blowouts.
The winter sport season lives for Oakdale High senior DeWayne Finney on April 13.
With Sonora High soon bound for the Mother Lode League via Sac-Joaquin Section realignment, Oakdale squads need to get their licks in while they still can.
Just a few weeks into the spring season, Oakdale High track and field athletes have already heaved objects into oblivion. Varsity and junior varsity competitors have landed stunning marks, accolades and a bounty of medals during a host of nonleague action. While varsity stars Kyle Peterson and Hannah Chappell have soared to some of the best marks in the state, Oakdale's other throwers have followed suit with their own impressive tosses.
The imposing form of Oakdale High senior first baseman Ericksen Dickens has loomed over Valley Oak League plates like an ominous shadow. The slugger has hit safely in each of Oakdale's four conference contests with two home runs and nine RBIs recorded.
On an Oakdale High School girls soccer team loaded with underclassmen, nothing is more vital than the stellar play of OHS senior Jill Kahler. The talented forward has scored in bushels throughout the season and forced conference opponents to surrender goals her way in each league outing.
The talents of Oakdale High athletes were on display during a barrage of recent action in girls soccer, swimming, boys tennis, boys golf and baseball. Following is a summary of contests.
The long awaited Oakdale High School football 2014 season is under way. After spring and summer workouts, two-a-days once practices could officially begin earlier this month, and team meetings, the Mustangs hosted a home scrimmage against the Tracy Bulldogs on Saturday, Aug. 23.
With school starting up this week, the athletic programs don't waste any time, as many of the practices for the fall campaign will start on Monday, Aug. 11. Here is a brief rundown of the teams that will be hitting the playing fields and courts this fall.
Thirty-two local sports legends – including an Oakdale icon – will be inducted into the 2014 Sac-Joaquin Section Hall of Fame later this month. Representing Oakdale High School is decorated basketball coach and athletic director Norm Antinetti.
Oakdale High School varsity softball teammates Lauren Sanders and Kindra Hackbarth were named to the Calhisports.com All-State Medium/Small School Softball Team for 2014. Sanders, who graduated from OHS in May and will continue to play softball for San Diego State, was named to the first team for her ability behind the dish as she was named to the top five catchers list. Hackbarth was named to the Second Team for both her glove and cannon of an arm in the outfield. Hackbarth will be entering her junior year, was one of only two sophomores to make the list ...

The Revolutionary Marxists of Iran are aware of your achievements as part of the Bolivarian Movement and have always supported this movement against the widespread lies and the open and covert interference of imperialism.
In order to defend your invaluable movement and to confront the attacks and interference of US imperialism in Venezuela, labor and student activists in Iran have set up the "Hands Off Venezuela" campaign in Iran and during the past few years have stood together with you in confronting the imperialist attacks.
- It is obvious that your achievements were gained under the leadership of Hugo Chavez and, for this reason, you reserve deep respect for him.
In terms of his foreign policy, however, Chavez has made a mistake. With his support for Ahmadinejad he has ignored the solidarity of the workers and students of
In of spite this, Chavez was one of the first people to support Ahmadinejad. In his weekly TV speech he said: "Ahmadinejad's triumph is a total victory. They're trying to stain Ahmadinejad's victory, and by doing so they aim to weaken the government and the Islamic revolution. I know they won't be able to do it." And that "We ask the world for respect."
These rash and baseless remarks from your President are a great and direct insult to the millions of youth who in recent days rose up against tyranny. Some of them even lost their lives. Many of these youths came out on the streets spontaneously and without becoming infected with the regime's internal disputes, or becoming aligned with the policy that
So far Chavez has travelled to
On the one hand, in
But this has not always been so: the overthrow of the Shah brought about many freedoms for workers including, in some cases, control over production and even distribution. Then, however, through repression the Islamic hierarchy managed to take back all the workers' gains. The leaders that your President hugs killed thousands of workers, destroyed the workers' movement and pushed it back by several decades. In Iranian society even the "yellow" pro-boss unions – that the Shah had tolerated – became and remain illegal. Even a CTV-style trade union confederation is illegal in

The close and regular links of your leader, Chavez, with the leaders of this regime will eventually make the Iranian masses turn their back on the great lessons of the revolutionary process in

- Only the unity of the real representatives of the workers and toilers can confront imperialism.
Stand together with the Iranian workers and condemn the foreign policy of your leaders. Support for Ahmadinejad means support for the repression of Iranian workers and youth. Challenge the flawed positions of Chavez and reject them.
Support for the government of Ahmadinejad, especially after the recent events, is at worst an open betrayal of the toilers of

NEW DELHI — Authorities shut down roads in the heart of India's capital on Monday in an attempt to end a week of demonstrations seeking better protection of women from sexual assaults.
Thousands of armed police and paramilitary troops blocked roads in central New Delhi to prevent protesters from marching to the presidential palace. A small group of demonstrators gathered at a venue less than a mile away from India's Parliament to press the government to act after the gang rape and beating of a woman on a moving bus.
