The UH Board of Regents has approved adding two new programs to the UH Mānoa College of Natural Sciences – a BA in Astronomy and a BS in Astrophysics. The programs will be a cooperative effort of the Physics and Astronomy Department and the Institute for Astronomy. The board approved the new programs at its meeting on Thursday, August 21, 2014.
An international team, including IfA's Christoph Baranec , is using the world's first robotic laser adaptive optics system—Robo-AO— to explore thousands of exoplanet systems (planets around other stars) at resolutions approaching those of the Hubble Space Telescope.
The ATLAS (Asteroid Terrestrial-impact Last Alert System) project is coming together well within its budget and timeline. By the end of 2014, Telescope 1 on Mauna Loa should achieve first light. IfA alumnus Brian Stalder has joined the project as a postdoctoral fellow.
Following the approval of a sublease on July 25 by the Hawaii Board of Land and Natural Resources, the Thirty Meter Telescope (TMT) announced it would begin the initial phase of construction, with activities near the summit of Mauna Kea scheduled to start later this year. Previously, Kahu Ku Mauna and the Mauna Kea Management Board reviewed, and the University of Hawaii Board of Regents recently approved, the proposed TMT sublease. The final approval from the Board of Land and Natural Resources—the last step in the sublease process—allows TMT to begin on-site construction on Maunakea, home to many of the world's premier observatories.
An international team of astronomers, including Dr. Harald Ebeling of the University of Hawaii at Manoa Institute for Astronomy, has used the Hubble Space Telescope to map the mass within a galaxy cluster, originally discovered with Maunakea telescopes, more precisely than ever before.
IfA astronomer Brent Tully is a co-winner of the 2014 Viktor Ambartsumian International Prize. Established in 2009 by the president of Armenia in commemoration of the great Armenian astrophysicist, it has been awarded every two years since 2010 to those who have made an important contribution in astronomy/astrophysics and related sciences.
The National Science Foundation and the Daniel K. Inouye Solar Telescope (DKIST)have announced the award of a major contract to the University of Hawaii Institute for Astronomy to build the Cryogenic Near Infrared Spectropolarimeter (CryoNIRSP) for the new solar telescope, which is now under construction on Haleakala.
An international team of astronomers, including IfA astronomer Regina Jorgenson, has discovered that gas around young galaxies is almost barren, devoid of the seeds from which new stars are thought to form—molecules of hydrogen.
Without starlight to see them directly, the team observed the young galaxies' outskirts in silhouette.
IfA astronomer R. Brent Tully has won the Wempe Award given by the Leibniz Institute for Astrophysics Potsdam (AIP) "in recognition of his groundbreaking research about the structure of galaxies and the large-scale structure of the cosmos."
IfA graduate student Jason Chu, who took some of the photographs that rotate on the top of this page, had one of his photos of Mauna Kea telescopes featured on Astronomy Picture of the Day (APOD) on Monday, June 23. APOD is a NASA web page that features astronomy-related pictures and videos with captions that explain them. It is translated into numerous languages for people throughout the world.
IfA astronomer R. Brent Tully is one of four recipients of the 2014 Gruber Foundation Cosmology Prize for his role in understanding the structure and evolution of the nearby universe.
Students who have participated in HI STAR (Hawai'i Student/Teacher Astronomy Research), an IfA program that encouranges middle and high school students to excel in the sciences by teaching them how to do astronomical research, picked up a bundle of awards at the 2014 Intel International Science and Engineering Fair (ISEF) in Los Angeles. Six of the 25 students from Hawaii who went to ISEF were students who had previously attended HI STAR, and nine of the 18 awards won by Hawaii students were won by HI STAR alumni. Several HI STAR alumni also gave impressive TEDx youth talks that can be accessed online.

As soon as you take a step outside, you may notice your hair starting to frizz or your skin becoming instantly sticky.
The heat and the humidity are not holding back as temperatures climbed into the high 90's across the Panhandle and some areas felt closer to 100 degrees on Wednesday.
Two fans are the only thing keeping Lamar Ellis's shop cool during his workday.
"Rely on it a lot," said Ellis. "It keeps, it keeps us going."
Ellis is accustomed to hot days like this since he's a Florida native and owned this shop for 32 years.
"It's been hot really humid and hot," said Ellis. "But I think it's gonna get hotter in July."
These last few days of 2013 have been the hottest yet, but it's not unusual to see temperatures spike this time of year. It's likely they could soar even higher as Summer gets underway.
"I just think it's too hot," said Panama City Beach resident James Byrd. "Everyone needs to stay inside and seek air-conditioning, and I feel bad for those who don't have air conditioning."
For those who will face the outdoors, here's some advice.
"Some people don't realize to avoid getting sunburned can help to prevent you from getting heat exhaustion and heat stress," said Tracy Adams, Clinic Nursing Supervisor, with the Florida Department of Health in Bay County. "With sunburn, your body loses the ability to dissipate the heat."
The Center for Disease Control recommends drinking between two and four cups of water an hour if you plan on exercising or working out during the heat.
Adams also recommends staying away from beverages that contain caffeine, alcohol, and sugar and to avoid planning activities between 10am and 2pm, the hottest time of the day.
If you start to experience perfuse sweating, nausea, vomiting, or headache, Adams says it's possible you've succumbed to heat stress, also known as heat exhaustion. Adams recommends seeking shelter and shade to avoid a heat stroke.
"Heat stroke is more severe," said Adams. "Your body loses it's ability to regulate temperature, so you stop sweating. Instead of cool and moist skin, you're gonna feel hot and dry skin."
Adams also says muscle cramps are another sign of heat stroke and if such condition is suspected, it's critical to seek medical attention immediately.

Dodgers agree to terms with Loretta
Infielder must pass physical before one-year deal is official
LAS VEGAS -- While closing in on re-signing third baseman Casey Blake, the Dodgers further solidified their infield depth Monday night by agreeing to terms with veteran utilityman Mark Loretta on a one-year contract, according to agent Bob Garber. Loretta must pass a physical exam for the deal to be official.
Club officials declined comment when asked to confirm the agreement.
Loretta, 37, hit .280 in 261 at-bats for the Astros last season with four homers and 38 RBIs, batting .330 against left-handers. He played 46 games at second base, 17 at third base, five at shortstop and two at first base.
He presumably would take the place of utilityman Nomar Garciaparra, who appeared at three infield positions but is considering retirement because of health issues. Loretta also could spell Blake DeWitt at second base, although the left-handed-hitting DeWitt actually hit 29 points higher against left-handed pitching.
Loretta is a 13-year veteran and two-time All-Star. He earned $2.75 million last year and will receive about $1.4 million in 2009. The Dodgers won the pursuit for Loretta over National League West rival Arizona Diamondbacks.
"Mark's very excited," Garber said. "He grew up in Pasadena, so he's come full circle. He went to his first Dodger game as a 6-year-old."
The Dodgers made a run at Loretta when he was a free agent two years ago, but he signed with the Astros. He's a graduate of Northwestern University.

Ibiquity Demonstrates Active Radio EAS
Among a number of new digital radio applications appearing for the first time at the 2010 NAB Show was a new approach by iBiquity Digital designed to extend the reach of the Emergency Alert System (EAS). Designed to permit equipped devices to "wake up" and provide an audible alert in the event of an actual EAS activation, the company's Active Radio technology provides continuous monitoring regardless of the device being turned on or off.
Demo messages sent on the NAB Show floor were composed using a software package provided by SpectraRep, a managed network, application and system provider. An Active Radio-equipped receiver demonstrated the system's ability to deliver both text and audible messaging once a receiver powers up during an alert.
Active Radio EAS takes advantage of HD Radio's ancillary data capacity to transmit data directly to a system processor and represents a first generation of devices employing E chip functionality, a concept envisioned throughout the history of EAS by emergency planners.
The HD Radio Emergency Alert broadcast protocol is compliant with the Common Alerting Protocol (CAP) message definition now under adoption by FEMA and other emergency organizations. Ibiquity also notes that broadcasters can utilize the audio and data channels of their HD Radio signal to send multilingual announcements, text alerts and image data to alert-enabled receivers.
Ibiquity and NPR are reportedly working preparing an actual on-air test of the technology at member station WAMU in Washington, DC.

Newburyport Daily News
---- — To the editor:
Vote for Mike Doyle for Newbury selectman in Tuesday's annual election.
Mike Doyle favors helping our farmers like Donna and Gene Pikul to supplement their farm income by leasing some of their land for a solar farm on Scotland Road.
They need the money, so they can avoid becoming former farmers like Wendy and Colin Smith of Iron Moon Farm on High Road, who are selling.
Former Selectman Doyle says the solar farm will also bring tax revenue to the town and "is not changing the Common Pasture forever."
Doyle's opponent, Selectman Chuck Bear, said in his candidate profile in Thursday's Daily News, "I have no choice but to vote yes, though I would like to vote no."
However, according to the news story on the selectmen's solar farm vote, Selectman Bear did what he liked and voted no "against the stipulation that the project was not injurious or obnoxious to its neighbors."
Newbury needs to do its part in battling climate change by shifting to solar energy, while we support the few farmers we have left.
Mike Doyle will do the right thing.

EVANSVILLE, IN (WFIE) - Around the holidays people are so busy that donating food may not be a top priority.
But those at the Tri-State Food Bank and other food banks around the Evansville area are hoping a spirit of holiday giving will carry over as 2013 comes to an end.
Right now you can drop off food donations at Buehler's IGA and Price Less Foods locations through December 31st. They include IGA stores on 41 N in Darmstadt, as well as Morgan Avenue, First Avenue and Main Street in Evansville. Price Less Foods locations include Newburgh, Evansville's West Side and the Covert & Vann store.
Shoppers who don't want to give food, but still want to help may participate by buying at five dollar "Scan Away Hunger" card. The store will then donate items with that money. That is also going on through December 31st.
Items collected from this food drive and others are important to help meet the need in our community.
Last week, Tri-State Food Bank served close to 370 households during its Christmas giveaway, making sure those families had plenty of food on the table over the holiday.
The Tri-State Food Bank serves 33 counties and moves over seven million pounds of food a year.

Did you have a favorite plant this year or in a past year that you just couldn't get enough of? This often is the case and we hate to give it up at season end. It had perfect blooms with magnificent foliage and thrived and expanded better than all the other plants.
We all have our favorites and try each year to expand on the particular beauty of a specimen, but sometimes there is that one you just marvel at.
Sure, you can wait until the following year in hopes to find that same plant, or you can take cuttings and carry them through the winter months so that when spring arrives you'll be prepared to transplant them into your favorite pot, urn or garden.
While perennials can survive in freezing weather by mulching them heavily, annuals and plants that are out of our planting zones (zones 5 and 5 1/2) unfortunately must be removed to the indoors in order for them to survive.
Normally by year's end most of our annuals and perennials have grown much too large to be moved. That leaves us to the next best thing — making cuttings.
Now I'm not at all suggesting you make cuttings of all your annuals and perennials, only a "special" plant or two that you hate to give up. It's relatively easy to do and offers you a wintertime project to keep your thumb green.
Some initial precautions will gain you the best results. A sterile razor works best to take an angled cut 3 to 4 inches from the tips of tendrils. Remove the bottom leaves by pinching or snapping them off and leaving three or four leaves. Plunge the stem into a planting medium that consists of finely ground peat, perlite and sand, or purchase a product meant for this purpose. Then water generously and cover with clear plastic, creating a tent by placing sticks in the medium to keep it off the growing plants. Make certain there is adequate drainage in the container.

Availability: Usually Ships Within 24-48 Hours
Alaffia - Everyday Coconut Super Hydrating Shampoo - 32 oz. (950 mL)Alaffia Everyday Coconut Super Hydrating Shampoo gives a luxurious creamy lather, this Certified Fair Trade virgin coconut oil shampoo gently washes away impurities without stripping hair's natural oils. African ginger mildly stimulates scalp circulation while coconut water nourishes hair with vitamins, minerals and essential amino acids.
Virgin Coconut OilVirgin Coconut Oil is traditionally extracted oil from fresh fruit of the coconut palm, Cocos nucifera. Coconuts have been cultivated in coastal West Africa and been part of the diet and skin care for centuries. Virgin coconut oil is an important food oil, and is applied to skin and hair directly to protect from sun and wind damage.
Virgin Coconut Oil is high in natural antioxidants and protects skin from damaging free-radicals. It also helps keep skin firm and reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. Virgin Coconut Oil can help heal and repair the skin and make the skin smoother and more evenly textured by removing the outer layer of dead skin cells. They extract their Virgin Coconut Oil by hand in Togo, West Africa from fresh coconuts grown organically on small farms. They use their Virgin Coconut Oil in its natural, unrefined state for maximum effectiveness.Antioxidant properties of unrefined Coconut OilRefined coconut oil has been stripped of natural antioxidants and is highly prone to free-radical generation. Free radicals damage skin cells and cause skin aging and cancer. The antioxidants in virgin coconut oil not only prevent free-radicals from forming in the oil, but also help protect against free-radicals that the skin is exposed to.
FAIR TRADETo Alaffia, fair trade means paying a fair price or wage in the local context, providing equal employment opportunities, engaging in environmental sustainable practices, providing healthy and safe working conditions, being open to public accountability, and reducing the number of middlemen between producers and consumers. They believe fair trade should be environmentally, economically and culturally sustainable and give local communities the opportunity to self empower.What is Fair Trade?Fair Trade is a movement of individuals and organizations working to ensure that producers in poor countries receive a greater percentage of the price paid by consumers. While there are several definitions of fair trade, they all include:
EveryDay Coconut was created by Alaffia as a means of increasing coconut oil production at their cooperatives in Togo while offering a value size body and hair care to customers in these tough economic times. Like other Alaffia products, 10% of EveryDay Coconut sales are allocated to support Alaffia's community empowerment projects in West Africa. These projects are aimed at reducing poverty and empowering women in poor communities in Togo, and include:
About Everyday CoconutEveryDay Coconut is an extension of Alaffia Sustainable Skin Care and EveryDay Shea. Alaffia was founded by Olowo-n'djo Tchala, a Togolese native, as a way to generate funds to conduct community enhancement projects in his home country and other West African nations in order to reduce poverty and gender inequality. Olowo-n'djo believes that Africans can mobilize their natural resources in a sustainable manner to empower their own communities, and that this is a more sustainable avenue towards reducing poverty than waiting for outside aid or for corrupt governments to fall. Alaffia and the Alaffia Coconut Cooperative were founded in order to trade the indigenous resource - Coconut Oil - in the West to raise proceeds which are then returned to Togo in the form of community projects.
EveryDay Coconut is a continuation of this philosophy. EveryDay Coconut is a value line product that is price-sensitive during this economically difficult time. It provides a way for health-conscious families in the West to afford clean, petroleum-free body care, while at the same time keeping the Alaffia cooperative members employed in Togo.

Austrian Death Machine Biography
Austrian Death Machine is an American thrashmetal project from San Diego, California, founded by As I Lay Dying vocalist Tim Lambesis to be a parody and tribute of actor and current California governor Arnold Schwarzenegger's movies. Many in the press have pointed out that a Schwarzenegger movie-themed band concept was already being pursued by ArnoCorps, having been performing live in California and the UK beginning more than 7 years prior to Lambesis' effort. Lambesis writes and records all the music playing guitar, bass, and drums as well as the majority of the vocals, leaving Destroy the Runner vocalist Chad Ackerman (portraying "Ahhhnold") to perform Schwarzenegger like vocals. The only thing Lambesis or Ackerman do not record are the guitar solos in every song which are performed by various guitarists from other bands. Lambesis stated where As I Lay Dying "is heartfelt and full of passion" Austrian Death Machine on the other hand "is an outlet of pure testosterone and stupidity." Austrian Death Machine released their first album Total Brutal on July 22, 2008. A few months later they released a Christmas theme EP titled A Very Brutal Christmas. After some tour support of Total Brutal, Lambesis went back on tour with As I Lay Dying. While on tour he posted on Austrian Death Machine's MySpace blog that he had ideas to follow up Total Brutal with a double disc effort titled Double Brutal stating that the first disc would be original songs where the second disc would be comprised of cover songs. After returning home from tour in early Summer 2009, he went straight to work on Double Brutal which was released September 29, 2009.

Petco Park has been something of a portal to a different time in baseball history since it opened, back to an era when runs were scarcer, and homers were scarcer still. It's been great for the pitchers, but something of a nightmare for hitters. Petco reduced one of the game's greatest bats from the peak he should have had to a more underrated one, and has left plenty of more middling hitters struggling to get to even that level. That's a lot of damage for a stadium that's been open for less than a decade, but that's why the Padres are now moving the fences in at their home park.
Chase Headley, by way of FOX Sports, gave a thoughtful player perspective on the issue:
''I think more than anything, when you hit a ball that you know probably should be a home run, it will reward you. Having something at least less drastic, I think, is going to improve everybody's approach and confidence. You're not going to be walking back to the dugout after hitting one that's a home run in 29 other ballparks saying, `This is dumb.' It's not going to turn it into a hitters' park, but most of the balls you've really hit well, you'll be rewarded for.''
Park effects can help to tell you which stadiums see more or less offense in them, but one thing they can't grasp entirely is how it changes the approach of players. If a hitter knows driving the ball deep isn't going to do the job, they might attempt to hit more singles or doubles, possibly taking advantage of a pitch they think they can go the other way with rather than wait for that ball they can crush. Pitchers can challenge hitters much more within the strike zone, knowing that, even if a ball is tattooed, it might still end up in a defender's glove. A recent example in the Padres' favor is Jon Garland, who elevated his four-seam fastball more often with San Diego than he did with other clubs he pitched for -- when successful, it helped lead to career highs in both strikeout rate and total punch outs. When unsuccessful? Well, that's where the insurance policy that was Petco's fences came in.
The changes to Petco will not be drastic -- they aren't about to turn this into a hitter's park. But even slight changes can have an impact. Petco will have its fence in right field alley moved in from 402 feet back to 391 feet, with the height of the fence also lowered, so as to match the rest of the outfield wall. On the left field side, the distance will drop from 402 to 390 even. The distances down the line will remain consistent, though, at 334 feet in left, and 322 feet in right.
It's those power alleys (and center field) that have been the problem for years, though: what's a power alley if power isn't allowed there? Take a look at where homers landed at Petco Park in 2012, courtesy of Hit Tracker Online:
Homers are essentially restricted to left field, down the line and in regular old left. The "power" alley, though -- there are less than a dozen dots representing homers there. Right field, all the way down, has a similar problem. Moving things in by 11 to 12 feet should, in theory, boost these totals up; not to the point where Petco loses its status as the league's least-friendly park for hitters, but enough for Padres position players to no longer need a support group after home games.
"Just Enough" home runs are those described by Hit Tracker as balls that "cleared the fence by less than 10 vertical feet, OR that it landed less than one fence height past the fence" Generally, about one-third of all homers fit this category. Of the 4,934 home runs hit in 2012, 1,561 of those (or 32 percent) were of the "just enough" variety. In 2011, it was 33 percent, and in 2010, 34.
You'd expect homers at Petco Park -- at least, in the areas the fences have been moved -- to see a bounce similar to this. Of course, one-third of a small number still isn't much to go with, but more certainly beats the current situation. Assuming you're a hitter, anyway.
Imagine what Adrian Gonzalez would have done in Petco with even 10 fewer feet to work with. While with the Padres, from 2008 through 2010, Gonzalez hit .285/.387/.523. It's great, but it's not a reflection of the kind of hitter he was during his age-26 through age-28 campaigns. Gonzalez mashed to the tune of .310/.390/.599 on the road, and hit all of .257/.384/.439 at Petco in the same stretch. The park killed left-handed power, as a look at the image from above will remind you of, and even someone with power as prodigious as peak-level Adrian Gonzalez couldn't escape that.
Will Venable, a Padre since 2008, has a career line of .253/.324/.415. That's unimpressive, until you notice the lefty has been held back at Petco (.229/.303/.372). Free of the spacious outfield there, Venable has produced a .276/.344/.455 line on the road. Chase Headley is a switch-hitter, but that means roughly three-quarters of his plate appearances come from the left side. He was held to .272/.357/.455 at home in 2012, and .300/.395/.541 on the road. Were the fences in already, he might have earned a few more MVP votes this season.
The pitching is likely less thrilled, but there's still plenty of pitcher's park to work with. They might not be able to get away with some of the tricks that hurlers like Jon Garland and notorious flyballer Chris Young did over the years, but pitchers, like hitters, adapt to their surroundings. The hitters could not adapt to fences put out of their physical reach, though, so Padres management is simply bringing a little reality back into the mix with this shift.

Graduate School Initiative
The University of Wyoming is on the recruiting trail. And not just for running backs, point guards and middle blockers.
In an effort to raise the university's stature and further energize its burgeoning research enterprise, UW recently launched an aggressive multi-pronged initiative designed to lure the best and brightest graduate students to the state's only four-year institution of higher education.
"The University of Wyoming has always had graduate education but it hasn't been at the forefront of our efforts to address education until now," says Andy Hansen, the university's associate provost. "I think UW does an outstanding job of educating undergraduate students. We always have. It's always been our priority and, in my opinion, we do a really good job.
"The graduate programs are different. I don't think we have uniform areas of excellence across campus. We have pockets of excellence. But we have other areas that, quite honestly, could benefit from a sustained effort to advance UW's stature in graduate education. We're striving to achieve this goal by getting better students on this campus and, then, we want to do a better job of mentoring those students."
The initiative -- developed and coordinated by Hansen and Carol Frost, the university's vice president for special projects, and funded through the offices of the President and Academic Affairs -- places a heavy emphasis on recruiting graduate students who will inject enthusiasm and imagination into UW's teaching mission.
To aid recruiting efforts, UW is providing departments with additional funding to be used to bring prospective students to campus and offering enhanced stipends and summer school support for outstanding students who commit to the university.
The Department of Professional Studies, one of six departments chosen to pilot the initiative during the 2011-12 school year, has already benefited from the university's revitalized commitment to graduate education.
"We're very proud to say that 100 percent of the students who have come to campus for a visit have ended up applying," says Mary Alice Bruce, department head.
Keith Carron, a professor in the Department of Chemistry, another of the pilot departments, reports similar results. "If you are a good undergraduate studying chemistry, you can go just about anywhere you want to go," he says. "This initiative is allowing us to compete with any school."
The Department of Ecosystem Science and Management, also selected to pilot the program, brought seven students to campus in mid-January to visit research facilities and meet faculty and current graduate students.
"Most of them had never been to Wyoming," says John Tanaka, department head. "It was a great opportunity, because we've never been able to do that in the past." He adds that the enhanced stipend "got their attention" and believes the additional support provides UW with an advantage over many universities.
The College of Law, Anthropology and Mathematics are also piloting the initiative.
"We'll just continually increase the number of programs who participate in this program," says Hansen. "I've had two or three departments contact me and say, 'Can we get in on this recruiting initiative?" and I tell them, "Next year.'"
The initiative also features a mentoring component that seeks to provide an outstanding environment for graduate students, in addition to the opportunity to contribute to "the cutting edge of the university's creation of knowledge," says Hansen.
Also as part of the initiative, UW launched a revamped website devoted to graduate education (http://www.uwyo.edu/uwgrad/) and has begun the process of moving to an all-electronic application process for prospective students.
"This is not a one-year program. This is not a two-year program. This is a long-term endeavor," Hansen says. "I think if you want to measure the success of the effort, you probably ought to wait a decade and just see what the university looks like compared to what it looks like now.
"I believe you're going to see significant changes in the quality of the students, the successes that our students have when they leave here and the university's research contributions. The university stands to benefit and the students who come here stand to benefit."

An easy, showy, and tasty appetizer. The carrots almost taste like yams. The only thing I did differently was add a little salt to the water when I parboiled the veggies. Would definitely make this again.

Eric Martin Brooks, 43, of New Bern, was convicted and sentenced in Craven County Superior Court this week of Larceny by Employee and Obtaining Property by False Pretense.
Brooks was employed by Munro Muffler Brake & Service in New Bern, and stole specialty tools from his employer. He then pawned those tools at a local pawn shop, representing himself as the owner of the tools. New Bern Police were able to recover surveillance video from the pawn shop, clearly identifying Brooks as the perpetrator.
Brooks was sentenced to a maximum of 93 months in prison. Because Brooks had already been convicted of at least three prior felony crimes, he was sentenced as an habitual felon under North Carolina's version of "three strikes, you're out". Brooks also has fraud and identity theft charges pending in Onslow County, and it is expected that he will receive additional prison time in those cases.

Brewers holding pat entering Meetings
Club waiting on Sabathia's decision before moving forward
MILWAUKEE -- It's fitting, on the eve of the Winter Meetings at the Bellagio in Las Vegas, that general manager Doug Melvin and the Brewers are holding their cards so close to the vest.Melvin said he and his staff have been discussing free agents and trade opportunities all along, but the Brewers have been somewhat paralyzed by the slow-going CC Sabathia sweepstakes. Milwaukee submitted one of the two known offers (the New York Yankees put up the other offer) for the free-agent left-hander, who has been waiting for a number of West Coast teams to join the bidding. At the same time, the Brewers do not have many obvious holes to fill. Melvin points out that all of the hitters who departed via free agency were either backups or platoon players, meaning new manager Ken Macha could field a viable 2009 lineup with players already in the fold. If Seth McClung were to rejoin the rotation after a successful end to last season in relief, the Brewers also have five starters, even if free agents Sabathia and Ben Sheets move on. In the bullpen, assuming players such as Mitch Stetter and Tim Dillard are promoted to the Major Leagues permanently, there are only a handful of spots available, including the closer's role, and Melvin believes those can be filled later in the offseason. The Brewers also would need to restock the bench. So Milwaukee's contingent headed to Vegas in a bit of a holding pattern, waiting for Sabathia's decision to help decide their course for the rest of the offseason. If he takes less money to remain in Milwaukee (reportedly $100 million over five years, compared to six years and about $140 million offered by the Yankees), then the Brewers' starting rotation is dramatically improved and Melvin can focus more of his efforts to add left-handed bats to a right-handed-heavy lineup. But in the very likely event that Sabathia signs elsewhere, the Brewers would reap a pair of high Draft picks and Melvin would likely refocus on building depth in the starting rotation for 2009. Yovani Gallardo, Dave Bush, Jeff Suppan and Manny Parra are set to return, and McClung could be an option, but it's likely that Melvin would be more motivated to either pursue another starter on the free-agent market or try to add an arm via trade. "We're meeting every day to go over things," Melvin said. "We know what we can do and what we can't do. "The big thing for us is that it has changed somewhat from a year ago, when our younger players were not making money. Now a lot of our younger players are arbitration-eligible and that has changed our focus on what we can do free agent-wise." At the head of that list is first baseman Prince Fielder, whose 2008 contract was renewed by the club at $670,000 but who now stands to make something in the neighborhood of 10 times that amount in arbitration. Right fielder Corey Hart and second baseman Rickie Weeks are also eligible for arbitration for the first time, and Hart in particular will get a big bump from his $444,000 salary. Shortstop J.J. Hardy ($2.65 million salary in 2008) and starter Dave Bush ($2.55 million) can also expect bumps in their second years of arbitration.

The Disney cruise was wonderful! I had a great time with my grandson, daughter, son-in-law and best friend.
We had adjoining cabins which my 5 year old grandson loved. We had Deluxe Oceanview Family Stateroom and it was so spacious with 3 beds plus a pull out sofa and large window.
The shows were fantastic and entertaining, but I didn't like the ventriloquist. She appeared two more times in the lounge other than having additional entertainers. My Grandson attended only Believe and he really enjoyed it. I miss the piano bars and lounges that are on other ships. We enjoyed the singers in the atrium but there wasn't any chairs or sofas to sit and enjoy the music.
The pools were absolutely packed. I didn't put my foot in one. My family enjoyed the AquaDuck. The last night we enjoyed the adult pool and Jacuzzi.
I loved the Enchanted Garden dining room and wished I could eat there every night. Animators Palate and Royal Court were just as nice. Children had their own menus but my Grandson ordered some food from the adult menu. I am a vegetarian and there just wasn't as much choices as I would like. As a Platinum member of Princess, I can say that they switch my meals around for me, offer me the next days lunch and dinner menu etc. Disney dining couldn't handle me making changes and often I had two plates in front of me. I was disappointed. The buffet upstairs was very good, but so spread out. It was incredibly noisy! If I could say the one thing that I missed the most was the service on Disney. You had to get up and get your own soda, coffee and drinks. I think I was served three times all week. Drinks were very inexpensive alcoholic and non-alcoholic. They were also very good drinks.
My goal was to spend time with my family which I accomplish. My friend and I cruise with older family members and friends all the time. I felt there was nothing much to do as an adult on the ship. My daughter and her husband went to a tequila tasting for entertainment for $15 pp. They really need to add something more for the adults. We did go to the movies one day.
The port of Nassau and Castaway Cay were visited on the ship. I have been to Nassau numerous times, but it was my first time at Castaway Cay. The weather was questionable and we didn't do any activities but enjoy the sand and sun. The buffet was delicious and we thoroughly enjoyed the day.
I can't say enough about the children's clubs. They were so entertaining and the kids all seem to love them. My Grandson had so much fun in the Oceaneer Lab he didn't want to leave.
Pirate's night was so much fun and we loved getting dressed up! New Year's Eve was delightful as the champagne poured and the fireworks blasted. They know how to do it right.

Tribune staff writer
Kokomo —
Comments made by Republican Richard Mourdock concerning abortion during the final Senatorial debate cost him some women votes in Howard County.
"I believe that life begins at conception," Mourdock said during an Oct. 23 debate.
He said the only exception for an abortion he would consider is when the mother's life is in danger.
"I just struggled with it myself for a long time, but I came to realize life is that gift from God that I think even if life begins in that horrible situation of rape, that it is something that God intended to happen."
Having upset incumbent Richard Lugar in the May primary, Mourdock was in a tight race with Democrat Joe Donnelly for the Indiana seat in the U.S. Senate.
"The comment didn't help him," Vicki Lawrence, of Howard County, said Tuesday.
Many believe Mourdock's comments — which were the subject of numerous political ads — gave Donnelly the advantage in the final weeks of the campaign.
"I had pretty much decided anyway," Lawrence said. "Probably, if I was in favor of him, I would have voted no."
But ultimately for Lawrence, the comments didn't change her vote.
"I didn't really care for him or Mr. Pence," she said.
It was a different story for Jane Auxsel, who said it changed her vote in the Senate race. Normally a Republican who votes straight ticket, she said she couldn't do that in this election.
"I didn't like his comment," she said. "I couldn't vote for him because of that. He hung himself."
Bobbie Egloff agreed, saying Mourdock's comments changed how she voted Tuesday.
"His comment about abortion definitely changed my mind," she said. "I usually vote Republican."
"I was probably leaning toward Mourdock," Egloff said. "I wanted to vote the Democrats out of office no matter what. I was planning to vote Republican."
In the end she voted for Libertarian Andy Horning.
For Elaine Wanke, Mourdock didn't have her vote in the first place because she considered him a loose cannon even before the debate.
"I understand what he meant, but he picked a crazy way to say it," she said. "If he would get elected, he would do the same thing."
She said Mourdock scares her because you never know what he might say.
Phylis Schrader was already planning to vote for Donnelly because of his support of veterans, but admits Mourdock's comments solidified her decision.

The Barkhor (pilgrims' circuit) is found in the heart of Lhasa encircling the Jokhang Temple. It was built about 1,300 years ago, and it developed with the Jokhang Temple. It dates back to the foundation of the Jokhang and is an essential pilgrim route.
In the past, it was a designated circumambulation circuit, "a saint road" in the eyes of Tibetans. Now it's also a shopping center, an old district with colorful Tibetan features. The streets of the Barkhor have recently been widened and a wide area, called Barkhor square, was created in front of Jokhang Temple. Tibetan houses line the streets, and the ground is paved with flagstones, preserving the ancient look. In the street, you can find souvenirs, and experience the mysterious "one step one bow" way to religion. Houses and small inns were built all around the street. All the houses along the street are stores. As time went on, shops and businesses set up in the Barkhor, and it slowly became a prosperous area. All kinds of fantastic commodities show us all aspects of the Tibetan life, such as prayer wheels, bronze Buddhist statues, prayer beads, joss sticks, carpets, knives, and Thangkas. Commodities from nearby countries such as India, Nepal and Burma can also be found there.
Barkhor Street bustles with activity. It is a must for souvenir-hunting tourists. Many people call the Barkhor "the window of Tibet" as it exhibits a typical Tibetan life. The old circumambulation circuit is always crowded with pilgrims from everywhere. Some progress along the road by performing body-long obeisances, some come by truck. Some are monks, and some are businessmen from Kham, a region encompassing East Tibet and part of Sichuan Province. Here you will find people from all over Tibet. You can experience different styles of dress and languages. Even the similar-looking clothes of the monks vary depending on the different branches of Buddhism they practice.
Hi Len, yes, it could be a side trip from Lhasa. The trip will take 3-4 days. If you want to enter Tibet, you need a Tibet Permit. Since this May, the Tibet government changes the regulation for Tibet Travel Permit (this document is the must for visitors to visit Tibet besides China visa) -The minimum number five (5) people in each group with the same nationality and enter Tibet from the same destination on the same flight on the same date. Currently we endeavor to combine the groups to issue the Tibet permit whenever it is possible; however, government still holds the right to reject any application.Whitney Liao replied on 2012-12-13

Elevate Your Garden's Beauty
Cultivate a picturesque landscape with a beautiful arbor. These outdoor frames can be used to define a walkway or garden entrance, or to add another dimension to ground-level plantings. We have a wide selection of arbors in various materials and styles. Choose the perfect design to create a garden scene with classic elegance.
Wrought Iron
Wrought iron arbors are steeped in artistic tradition. Iron has been worked into delicately scrolled and flourished fencing, gates, and trellises for centuries. This ornate look adds timeless beauty to any garden area.
Mild steel construction is a strong and economical choice. Some steel designs emulate the ornate wrought iron looks of the past, while others offer more contemporary options. Steel is a good choice for bench and swing models for years of durable strength.
Vinyl is a great low-maintenance option. UV protection ensures they will not fade or crack, and they can simply be hosed off with water for a bright, clean appearance. Vinyl styles are often white, so choosing this style can create a cohesive landscape with a white house or white fencing.
Wood lends a natural look to your yard or garden. This style is often made from cedar for outdoor durability. Wood arbors can be stained, painted, or left natural. Untreated cedar will age to an attractive silver grey, or you can use a wood sealant to preserve the bright cedar color. These styles can be a perfect complement to a wood deck or other yard elements, like natural wood fencing or garden borders.
Gabled, Arched, or Flat
Consider what you prefer, as gabled, arched, or flat styles all produce a different effect. Arched designs are a classic choice, while gabled peaks add a twist of visual interest. Flat pergola arbors can evoke a traditional cottage or Asian aesthetic.
Gates, Benches, and Swings
Location will help determine what features you choose. As the welcoming fixture for a yard or garden, a gated style may the perfect look. Bench and swing designs can create a cozy alcove within the garden, offering protected seating while supporting vining plants.
There are many climbing plants that will make good use of this new, supportive frame. Some favorite flowering vines include sweet autumn clematis, climbing hydrangea, wisteria, roses, and honeysuckle.
Finish the look with key accessories. Planter boxes or side wings can help to visually anchor your new arch. Also, doors can be added to many open designs to transform them into a gated garden entrance.

The eight islands of Japan sprang into existence through Divine Intervention.
The first two gods who came into existence were Izanagi no Mikoto and Izanami no Mikoto, the Exalted Male and Exalted Female. It was their job to make the land for people to live on.
They went to the bridge between heaven and earth and, using a jewel-encrusted halberd, Izanagi and Izanami churned up the sea into a frothy foam. As salty drips of water fell from the tip of the halberd the first island was formed. Its name was Onogoro.
So far, so good. But when Izanagi and Izanami first met on their island, Izanami spoke to Isanagi without being spoken to first. Since she was the female, and this was improper, their first union created badly-formed offspring who were sent off into the sea in boats.
The next time they met, Izanagi was sure to speak first, ensuring the proper rules were followed, and this time they produced eight children, which became the islands of Japan.
I'm sure you did not fail to miss the significance of this myth for the establishment of Japanese formal society.
At present, Japan is the financial capital of Asia. It has the second largest economy in the world and the largest metropolitan area (Tokyo.)
Technically there are three thousand islands making up the Japanese archipelago. Izanagi and Izanami must have been busy little devils with their jewelled halberd...
Japan's culture is highly technical and organized. Everything sparkles and swooshes on silent, miniaturized mechanisms.
They're a world leader in robotics, and the Japanese have the longest life-expectancy on earth.

at fireworks stand / A8
By Elane Jones
Officials with the Jasper Police Department are almost certain the theft that occurred over the weekend at Carl Cannon Chevy Buick GM Cadillac Dealership in Jasper is the work of professional thieves because of the way the crime was committed.
Police officials said the crime appeared to be well rehearsed and well executed.
"Because of the way this crime was perpetrated, we immediately began looking at other jurisdictions to see if there were similar incidents of this nature," Jasper Police Chief Connie Rowe said. "We found that a similar crime had been reported at a car dealership in the Atlanta area and more recently — since our incident in fact — a very similar incident was reported in Louisiana."
Rowe said detectives with the Jasper Police Department are now looking into the likelihood that the three crimes may be connected.
According to JPD investigators, the thieves in the Carl Cannon burglary made off with an estimated $70,000 in tires and rims from 10 different vehicles.
The crime was caught on tape, however.
"We believe the theft occurred between the hours of 11 p.m. Saturday night and 2:30 a.m. Sunday morning. When we watched the surveillance tape it showed a Jeep driving into the dealership's lot around 11, but it left a few minutes later," Jasper Police Detective Sgt. Jimmy Vann said. "But the tape then showed the exact same Jeep returning again around 1 a.m. Sunday. A large box truck followed the jeep a short time later and the two vehicles were then seen leaving the premises about an hour and a half later."
Jasper Police are asking for the public's help in solving this crime. The car dealership is well-lit and visible from I-22. "We believe someone may have saw something without even realizing it. You know, you see people car shopping all the time, but not at 2 o'clock in the morning and with a big box truck," Rowe said. "The car dealership sits next to the new Love's Truck Stop, so we're hoping that maybe someone there saw something or maybe someone has some information that could help us solve this case."
Anyone with any information, should call the Jasper Police Department at 205- 221-6790.

Delicious! I did find I needed longer cooking time for the uncooked shrimp but they were not tough and we loved the spice.
Reviewed Mar. 9, 2014
This recipe is fantastic! It was easy to make once you had everything mise en place. DH & I enjoyed it and would make it again. We used Blue Moon Ale and I subbed Smart Balance margarine for the butter. We had it with a whole grain pilaf instead of grits.
Reviewed Jan. 27, 2014
This recipe was delicious. I used a light beer(that's all I had)... and it worked fine to me. I make it with garlic-parm seasoned grits as suggested!!! Fantastic!!!
