PEORIA Ill -- Thursday afternoon was a typical day for contract worker, Terry Burnside and his son as they finished up a led removal project on West Smith Street in Peoria.
That was until he and surrounding neighbors heard the sharp shrieks coming from across the street.
"The girl was screaming when she got bit, and from the window you could see that she was getting bit," said witness of the attack, Michelle Roman. "A bunch of neighbors from all around were coming to help her."
"We heard some dogs growling, and we thought some dogs were fighting," said good Samaritan, Terry Burnside Sr. "Then we just happened to look around, and we saw this dog had this little girl on the ground biting her and just chewing her away. We both jumped off the ladder to assist the girl. We ran over and used our hammers and hands to pull the dog off the girl."
The 10-year-old girl, whose name has not been released, was playing on South DuSable Street when a Shar Pei mix canine mauled her to the ground, biting her several times on her face.
Some neighbors said the dog was tied up in the back yard before the incident occurred and somehow broke loose.
However, others said the dog was known to run the neighborhood freely.
Authorities said Rita Washington of 1507 West Smith Street was arrested for obstruction of an officer after she took the dog into her home and lied about it's whereabouts.
This attack comes right before Peoria County's proposal of new vicious and dangerous dog ordinances that would put more stress on owners of a dog.
"It's people not taking the time and effort to make sure that their pets cannot do this kind of damage to a person," said animal shelter director, Lauren Malmberg. "Hopefully with our new ordinances coming in July, we'll be taking one big step in preventing additional tragedies."
Washington received two citations from the Peoria County Animal Protection Services, one for failure to vaccinate and register the dog and another for allowing the animal to run at large and create a nuisance.
As for the local contract worker who possibly saved the girl's life, he said he was just acting on impulse.
"It wasn't about saving anyone's life," said Burnside. "I would have saved an adult or child. She was just laying their in the fetal position, not defending herself. She couldn't defend herself. The dog was all over her. I just tried to help."
Washington was released Friday afternoon, and she will be in court late July to face her charge of obstructing an officer.
The dog is being quarantined at Peoria County's animal shelter.

1/4 cup
1 1/2 teaspoons
seasoned salt
1/2 teaspoon
McCormick® Oregano Leaves
1/4 teaspoon
McCormick® Black Pepper, Ground
1 1/4 pounds
boneless skinless chicken breast halves or thighs
1/4 cup
1 tablespoon
butter, melted
I prepared this dish lastnight for supper and my husband and I loved it! It was delicious and moist and usually with white chicken meat it attends to get dry, but not with this recipe. I will make this again and again.
not much taste even with the added garlic. That been said my son and wife liked it

Ive been looking for a recipe for fried chicken that didn't require frying and this is a wonderful recipe. I made it the other night and absolutely loved it.
I've made this recipe a few times & I love it because it's simple. I cook it for almost an hour because 20 mins is not enough & the chicken is still juicy & flavorful. I also add a little more butter because this is what makes the coating crispy like fried chicken
I cut the chicken breast into pieces and after the 20 minutes in the oven I added garlic powder and Mrs. Dash. I put it back in the oven for 9 more minutes. Delicious!
Good good. And healthy too.
I've been making it this way for a long time. Try adding a garlic sea salt to mixture if you think there's not enough flavour. I do like a sauce also with a side of herbed rice.
Yummy! Very easy to prepare, I followed the recipe exactly except for the time in the oven. I baked it for approximately 45 minutes. Next time I'll take the foil off and let the chicken get a little crispy, maybe even put it under the broiler.

Habitat for Humanity receives World Bank Grant for Innovation
WASHINGTON (May 10, 2006) – Habitat for Humanity Kyrgyzstan is one of 30 winners of the prestigious World Bank Development Marketplace competition, a competitive grant program that funds innovative, small-scale development projects that deliver results and show potential to be expanded or replicated. This year's marketplace awarded US$4 million for the best ideas for providing clean water, sanitation and energy services for the poor in developing countries.
The winning Habitat for Humanity entry from Kyrgyzstan, titled "19th Century Idea, 21st Century Solution," combines a traditional but forgotten construction method of cane reed and clay with a technological innovation to create an affordable under-floor heating system. In addition, Habitat for Humanity Armenia was among 118 grant finalists for its project "Harnessing the Sun: Energy for the Armenian Poor," chosen from 2,500 applicants from 55 countries worldwide.
"To place in this prestigious competition is quite an achievement for these local initiatives, and for Kyrgyzstan to win is fantastic," said Don Haszczyn, area vice president for Habitat for Humanity's Europe and Central Asia regional office.
"The Armenian and Kyrgyz leadership and innovation of these sustainable, innovative projects can only enhance our mission to provide simple, decent, affordable homes in partnership with families in need."
Seventy percent of the population in Kyrgyzstan lives in substandard conditions due to a combination of prohibitively high prices, increasing urban migration and the traditionally limited housing stock. Those houses that are affordable for low-income families often lack heat, water and other basic services, thereby forcing inhabitants to improvise with unsafe, unhealthy makeshift furnaces. In the rare cases where heat is available, the resultant environmental degradation is significant and the costs are prohibitive, often costing as much as 50 percent of a low-income family's wage.
The cane reed project keeps house costs down by 40 percent and serves as better insulators against harsh Kyrgyz winters, saving families up to US$60 per month in energy costs, equivalent to 490 loaves of bread. Habitat for Humanity Kyrgyzstan will receive $116,000 to further develop the project.
Habitat for Humanity Kyrgyzstan has dedicated more than 130 homes in partnership with families in need since it was established in 1999. Habitat for Humanity Armenia has housed more than 1,000 people in need since 2000.
Habitat for Humanity International, based in Americus, Ga., is an ecumenical Christian ministry that welcomes to its work all people dedicated to the cause of eliminating poverty housing. Since 1976, Habitat has built more than 200,000 houses in nearly 100 countries, providing simple, decent and affordable shelter for more than one million people.

Rugged as they come.
If "compact and strong" brings up images of one of those half-pint 1880s bodybuilders in a silly bathing costume, that's totally cool, but don't forget that those words also apply to other, more rugged and radical things like Mountain Hardwear's EV 3 Three-Person Four-Season Tent. You could toss "superlight" into the mix as well, seeing as the EV weighs under 6.5 pounds, virtually the same as some of Mountain Hardwear's all-mesh 3-season tents. Unlike those glorified mosquito nets, the EV is built to endure the raging winds and hammering snow you encounter on high-alpine expeditions and winter camping trips, with four DAC Featherlite NSL aluminum poles that stabilize your shelter without being unnecessarily heavy. In the same vein, the integrated vestibule cuts down on material while increasing strength and giving you enough room to store gear and de-boot without trampling your partners and tracking snow all over your living space.
If you do get some snow inside (and let's be real, you will), the EV has you covered with a watertight drainage port in the floor so you don't have to sleep in a puddle. You can let some sunshine and fresh air into your life, too, courtesy of several SVX windows and four welded, adjustable mesh vents that'll keep you from feeling too claustrophobic on your fifth day of being stuck inside. The zippers are welded, their pulls are reflective, and the corner webbing is color-coded to make setup as easy as can be, even if the wind's howling. Good luck finding a body builder than can do all that.
- Nylon ripstop fabrics with waterproof PU coatings and welded zippers
- Three DAC Featherlite NSL aluminum poles
- Evolution Tension Arch design for more stability with fewer poles
- Integrated vestibule
- Weighs just 4lb 10oz
- Five welded, adjustable, zippered mesh vents and SVX windows
- Watertight floor port to drain water
- Reflective zipper pulls and color-coded webbing

What started out as a house bill in the West Virginia Legislature will improve the safety and lives of many officers in the Mountain State.
Ballistic vests were presented to several counties across the state at the Capitol on Tuesday afternoon.
Cabell County Sheriff Tom McComas said it wouldn't have been possible without the lawmakers behind the bill.
"(The bill) is attempting to assist counties that do not have tax rates to purchase vests," McComas said. "We appreciate the life this vest will save."
However, the vests come with a life expectancy of their own and will need to be replaced every five years, McComas said. They are hopeful the money will continue to be generated for the life-saving tool.
Speaker of the House Tim Miley, D-Harrison, said getting the vests has been a collaborative effort for members of both the house and senate.
"There is no greater or worthy cause than to help protect you guys who are protecting us by putting your life and safety at risk," Miley said.
Senate President Jeffery Kessler, D-Marshall, said Tuesday he was pleased to share his thoughts on the subject during the season of giving.
"These are the gifts that keep on giving and you folks are the folks at the front lines that keep on giving everyday," Kessler said to the members of various sheriff departments in attendance. "I give you my steadfast commitment and give you every took you need to maintain your job safely -- so everyday you go to work you come home safe to your families."
McComas said it didn't take long for them to understand the need of the vests throughout the state but one incident in particular really showed the important for many legislatures and police officers.
Roane County Deputy John Westfall was critically injured when a man who had just shot and killed two West Virginia State Troopers also fired several rounds in his direction. Westfall was saved by the bullet proof vest he was wearing, provided to him by the city of Spencer, where he was a part-time officer.
The legislation provides smaller counties like Roane County with the ability to protect their officers. The vests are an expense of about $700-$800 each.

As Grant pointed out, tonight's Game 4 starters have exactly the same ERAs: 3.69.
Does this mean that Randy Wolf and Joe Saunders are exactly the same pitchers?
While both pitchers walked 2.8 batters per nine innings, Wolf struck out 5.7 per nine innings.
That is a low figure, relative to most National League pitchers.
But Saunders struck out 4.6 batters per nine innings, which is really low; the lowest, in fact, among the 50 National League pitchers with at least 162 innings this season (Wolf ranked 40th).
You might guess that Saunders doesn't throw hard, and you would be correct. But he does throw slightly harder than Wolf, whose fastball averages just 88.4 miles an hour. Nevertheless, Wolf's fastball is more effective than Saunders. Here's a great look at their respective pitches, including frequency and effectiveness:
It's probably not appropriate for us to tell Saunders to stop throwing so many damned fastballs, because it's hard to argue with a 3.69 ERA. But he throws a lot of fastballs and they're really not working all that well for him. While you watch Game 4 tonight, see if you can figure out why Saunders' fastballs aren't as effective as Wolf's, even though they're faster.

The Tactical bullet line bridges the gap between functionality and the highest possible ballistic performance. Each Tactical bullet is designed with a specific cartridge in mind that is used most commonly in tactical competition. These bullets are made with thicker jackets allowing them to perform reliably under the most abusive conditions found in tactical competition, tactical situations and in combat. The ogive design for these bullets are optimized for their specific application and rifle, which means some have a Hybrid nose while others have a pure tangent ogive. The Hybrid design incorporates two shapes that work together to produce the best trajectory performance while at the same time they do not have to be tuned to a specific seating depth like the VLD bullets. Tactical bullets will be successful at either magazine feedable lengths or loaded long for single shot firing situations which can allow for more powder capacity and higher velocities. This is not loaded ammunition.

JU Football Season Outlook: The Quarterbacks
Third in a series
Unit coach: Kerwin Bell
Overview: If ever there was a team that was relying on one person for its success, at least early on, it is 2011 and senior quarterback Josh McGregor. A Walter Payton Award candidate, it's no secret that the Dolphins' offense will go as far as McGregor can take it. Behind him is a gaggle of freshmen including redshirt Trevius Folston, who appears to be the backup, Kade Bell, Garrett Mohr and Alphonso Evans. The youngsters are starting to ease the minds of coaches as they seemingly are starting to find themselves. But, the issue remains – they are freshmen.
Key Returners: Josh McGregor, 3,049 yards passing with 32 touchdowns and only seven interceptions last season.
Key Losses: None.
Promising Newcomers: Trevius Folston, Kade Bell, Garrett Mohr, Alphonso Evans.
Unit Strengths: McGregor. He knows the offense as well as anyone who has played for coach Kerwin Bell. The unquestionable team leader and he is very capable of handling the expectations.
Unit Weaknesses: The backups. Although improving, they're all freshmen.
Coach's Quote: "The big thing is, knock on wood, we've got to keep Josh healthy. If we don't, I think we've got a couple of guys who can go out and perform the offense we want to do; make the right checks, get us in the right place and we'll go from there. We don't' have to continue to prove that position.'' – Coach Kerwin Bell

Brian Klippel: Master Craftsman
Throughout his 31-year career at UCSD, Brian Klippel has been a mover and 'sharer,' crafting ideas to make his department—and the industry—better.
When Sergeant Brian Klippel returned from South Korea in 1969 after 15-1/2 months—he was drafted during the Vietnam War but deployed to Korea instead, following the USS Pueblo spy ship incident in North Korea—he decided to complete his degree in business finance at California State University at Long Beach under the GI Bill. But by the time he earned his degree two years later, he'd become enthralled with the challenges to be met in working in college foodservice.
This month Klippel retires at the age of 60 as associate director of housing and dining services at the University of California at San Diego (UCSD), the job he's held for the past 31 years. He's a man who has been very happy in his work and especially thankful for all the close friends he's made in the industry through the years. In fact, he's quick to assert that he's never met a foodservice director that he didn't like.
A modest man who wears his leadership mantle graciously, Klippel is not quick to crow about receiving IFMA's prestigious Silver Plate award for his sector in 1994. In fact, when pressed, he confides that his "greatest accomplishment" was being chosen by his peers as president-elect of the National Association of College and University Food Services (NACUFS) in July 1991. He served as president from July 1992 to July 1993.
"We established a NACUFS Foodservice Director Roundtable to develop a program for about 30 fsds to talk about issues," he recalls. "The first session was held in 1994 and the program continues to this day. Also during my presidency, we established an informal management assistance program that enabled members to contact the NACUFS office for assistance. Perhaps they needed someone or a group of member volunteers to come to their campus to share their experience in solving a particular problem. Now, it's a more formalized program, and that's something I wanted to accomplish. We [at UCSD] benefited from these things but, more importantly, the entire industry benefited."
Cross-pollination: In retrospect, Klippel believes this three-year involvement—NACUFS presidents serve one additional year as past president—made him a better leader, a better manager and a better person. "What I saw and learned during my term was brought back and used at UCSD," he contends. "Everyone at UCSD was challenged to be an industry leader and create one of the best college foodservice programs in the industry. Everyone at UCSD benefited because I had the opportunity to be involved in NACUFS as their president. I'm also sure this was one of the reasons why I was awarded the Silver Plate."
Ranked right up there with the NACUFS presidency on Klippel's list of "most rewarding achievements" is receiving the Theodore W. Minah Distin- guished Service Award in 2004, NACUFS' highest honor based on "outstanding and enduring contributions to the foodservice industry and to the association."
"Being recognized as a mover and sharer and industry leader by your peers was my greatest honor," he admits. "All I have ever wanted in life was to be a player, make a difference in everything that I did, and have fun doing it. I have had the pleasure of meeting so many wonderful people in my life. Early in my career, as I was struggling to learn what it meant to be a foodservice director, I turned to NACUFS and through those friendships I grew. Those mentors encouraged me to be better in my career and helped me choose to be more involved in NACUFS."
Ahead of the pack: Of course, being an innovative industry leader weighed heavily in his favor when the Silver Plate judging took place, and Klippel has been on the leading edge of technology and industry changes throughout his career. For example, in the mid-1970s UCSD was one of the first colleges to use computer meal access systems and back-of-the-house menu and production management systems. It was also a leader, under Klippel's direction, in bringing the retail Marché concept as well as convenience stores onto campus long before they were in vogue.
"I was also involved in hunger relief and helping to make colleges more aware of what they can do to help," he points out. "At the time I was serving on the board for the national prepared and perishable food rescue program called Foodchain. Today it is commonplace for colleges to participate in socially conscious programs. Colleges are a hotbed of new ideas and should be leaders with regard to social reform, sustainability efforts, etc."
Rapid progress: During his own college days at Cal State Long Beach, hunger relief—on a very personal level—actually prompted Klippel to apply for his first foodservice job. "I saw an ad on campus for 'free food' as a perk if you worked in the cafeteria, and I was tired of eating bologna and cheese sandwiches," he says. "I started as a dishwasher and soon became student manager, learning all aspects of the operation by doing them while also learning to be a manager. After I graduated, a senior dinner cook position became available and I did that for about a year and a half, learning to bring products together from scratch. It was great experience and it allowed me to become a full-time employee. Shortly after, I applied as assistant manager and helped them open a new facility. So it was a matter of doing quality work, being in the right place and seizing opportunities that allowed me to progress quite rapidly."
Klippel is still a bit in awe of the intrepid young man that he was when he moved from assistant manager at his alma mater to be foodservice director at the University of San Diego.
"That was a stretch," he recalls. "I took over from a management company and all they did was hand me a box of keys. I literally arrived December 22 with a Christmas party scheduled for the next day and no food in the house. The chef and I put together a menu—and I went shopping."
Sink or swim: For the next six months, Klippel lived on campus. Since his wife was still in Long Beach, he ate and slept foodservice 24/7. He was determined to succeed—or fail miserably. Once again, he was learning the ropes on the job, and loving it.
In July 1976, Klippel was hired as foodservice director at UCSD. It seemed a logical career progression, going from a small private school to a large public campus. At the outset, the greatest challenge was modernizing a very old facility and handling great growth. By building several new facilities and with the innovative use of strategically placed kiosks and catering trucks, Klippel—applying his business finance savvy—developed creative strategies to manage growth without incurring significant debt.
Today, the foodservice program on the 24,000-student campus is 100% declining balance. About five years ago, Klippel and his staff developed an on-line catalog, yet another way to enable students to spend the balance on their cards. "We were probably one of the first in the country," he says. "The catalog is on our Web site. For example, we'll sell you rice and also a rice cooker. Students in apartments might want to buy in bulk. We only put things on the catalog that will help with bulk-type products; it's another way for students to see value. Since it's part of the meal plan, you have to be a meal plan holder to go on line. Students who order by Wednesday can pick up their items on Saturday from the store area adjacent to one of the residential dining facilities."
It's in the details: Although some days leave little time for anything other than the job, over the years Klippel has developed numerous skills and interests that he's looking forward to devoting himself to in retirement. Chief among them is woodworking.
"I've made credenzas, stereo cabinets and wall units—I made one for my grandson," he says proudly. "I'm very meticulous and take a long time. I inherited that attention to detail from my father. Woodworking is a skill I picked up along the way. The more I did, the more I wanted to do. My son [one of Klippel's five children] is a general contractor with a shop in San Diego. Mostly I work on the weekends in my garage—that's where I have my grandfather's original table saw. I have no interest in selling my work; this is not a business. I'd stay in foodservice if I wanted to work. I want to try making Bentwood rocking chairs from some koa wood from Hawaii that I've been drying for several years. I also want to makes toys at Christmas for underprivileged children—I've never done toys before."
When the sun comes up: More time for scuba diving is on Klippel's short list of sports activities to pursue, along with improving his golf game. He presently has an 18 handicap but aims to get it down to 10 or 12 by playing more. Then there's time to devote to the Special Olympics and hunger relief programs, as well as time for family. He also enjoys sampling fine wines and traveling with Janice, his wife of 10 years, who is currently assistant dean of the division of social sciences at UCSD. Although she may continue working for a few more years while Klippel gets the hang of retirement, he suspects she'll join him sooner rather than later.
"I don't know what retirement is going to bring me but I want to be open enough to move in new directions," he explains. "Whatever it's going to be, I won't get up 'til the sun comes up. It's a new beginning to do the things I love and the things I don't even know about."

Warning to drivers as gales due to hit tonight
Updated 4:58pm Wednesday 18th December 2013 in News
DRIVERS using the QE2 Bridge at Dartford are being urged to be careful tonight after a severe weather alert for gales.
The Highways Agency warned motorists that strong winds of up to 65mph combined with heavy rain will make driving conditions dangerous this evening.
It is advising drivers of "vulnerable" vehicles - such as motorbikes, high-sided lorries or those towing a trailer - to avoid the QEII Bridge at the Dartford Crossing.
It said said the QEII Bridge at Dartford is expected to experience strong gusts from 9pm until midnight.
The Highways Agency has issued a severe weather alert for gales in the south east and south west regions.

Cody Hoffman caught three touchdown passes, the last one coming with 11 seconds remaining, as BYU rallied to beat Tulsa, 24-21 in the Bell Helicopter Armed Forces Bowl Friday afternoon in Fort Worth, Texas.
Tulsa (8-5) led 14-3 in the second quarter behind a pair of G.J. Kinne touchdown passes before a miscue on a punt return with 25 seconds left in the first half gave the Cougars the ball at the 17 yard line.
Hoffman hauled in a touchdown pass from Riley Nelson on the next play to pull BYU within four, 14-10 at the half.
In the second half, Hoffman caught a 30-yard touchdown pass to give the Cougars their first lead late in the third quarter, but Tulsa snatched the lead back when Kinne found Bryan Burnham with his third TD toss of the day.
The scoring play gave TU a 21-17 lead with 10:42 remaining.
BYU punter Riley Stephenson helped the Cougars' final scoring drive, pinning Tulsa at their own one yard line late in the game. Tulsa would eventually have to punt and Brigham Young took over at the TU 48 yard line.
Nelson converted a 4th and 9 on a quarterback draw to keep the drive alive and also added a pair of third down conversions on the drive. Finally, he found Hoffman open in the left side of the end zone with just 11 ticks remaining to put BYU back on top.
Tulsa had one final play, but couldn't get a Cal/Stanford dramatic ending.
Kinne passed for 210 yards and three touchdowns. His favorite receiver was Burnham, who caught four for 115 yards. Trey Watts had 38 yards rushing to lead the Golden Hurricane.
Hoffman finished the day with eight catches for 122 yards and three touchdowns for BYU (10-3).
The loss ends a three-game winning streak in bowl appearances for Tulsa, who last lost a bowl game in the 2006 Armed Forces Bowl against Utah.

modern living + innovative design + inspiring ideas
Dart Modern Bronze 21-Inch-WPendant Light

Today's modern chandelier often times double as an art installation. Is this good or bad? Well, how can art ever be bad? As long as you understand how to translate these designs to work in your own home, then you're able to enjoy them as the inspiration that they are.
This innovative creation (above), designed by Elisa Strozyk, is made out of small triangles of wood. Where you would normally see wood used only as a flat surface in product design, this chandelier can be bent and shaped however you like, far from a flat surface.
Innovative product design is similar to the fashion runway... Would you necessarily wear that? Similarly, would you ever put that in your home (above)? However, you can use the materials, colors and form as inspiration for selecting a modern chandelier. Also, the way it relates to the space can be a form of inspiration as well.
One very simple way to achieve these lighting-meets-art look is to go with an over sized fixtures (above two images), but keep the materials simple. Proportions can definitely be played with to make a statement in any room.
Another way to turn your modern lighting into art is to keep the furnishings and decor around it simple (above). Allow your modern chandelier, big or small to stand out.
Here's a few fun ideas for unconventional chandeliers that will surely make a statement in your home.
1. Fredrick Ramond Mondo Chandelier, 2. Maxim Chantilly Nickel Jewelry Chain Chandelier, 3. Possini Glass Orbs Pendant Chandelier, 4. Possini Corinthian Bronze Twist Chandelier, 5. Vienna Full Spectrum Chrome and Crystal Chandelier
Don't limit your sources for inspiration, just because certain products won't fit in your home (or budget), doesn't mean you can't pull ideas from them. Designing is about solving problems so there's always a way to achieve the look you want!

Whether it's architecture or interiors, we're not alone in our love for the boldness of black. This risky, bold color can be found everywhere nowadays. The perfect partner for this hue is gold!
Keep in mind, gold doesn't have to mean a metallic material.... Take a look at the image above, even the glow from modern pendant lighting and the wood furniture provides a gold element to the space. It softens the boldness of the black architecture.
Image from Décor 8
Like the architecture above, this bold room is dramatic and chic. The gold, found in the lamp and the wood tones, soften it up a bit and make I the perfect space for rest.
Here's some ideas for incorporating this dark color into your modern home.
1. Bronze Gold Art Glass 11-Inch-H Rectangle Wall Sconce 2. Vela Gold 40 1/4-Inch-W Sunburst Wall Mirror 3. Contemporary Black Metal Possini Euro Dome Pendant Light 4. Lulu Bronze Burst Babette Holland Table Lamp 5. Paige Black Upholstered 39-Inch-H Wingback Chair 6. Bachelor 1-Drawer Driftwood 24-Inch-W TV Table

The best office spaces are those that are creative and can tell a story. My desk was built by my husband. He built 2 sawhorses and then took an old counter from a boutique closing in the area, and attached it to the top. It's the BEST.
Another key ingredient to a great office space is of course good lighting. Pendant lights are stylish, while attractive task lamps are necessary. And both is even better, like the modern office space above.
This vintage office space (above) has a lot of character. It's not big in size and fits perfectly in that room. If you're looking for a desk that just needs to house your laptop, this is a great size for you. I also love the art gallery above the desk. It creates a fabulous corner to work in.
This rustic office space (above) must have a fantastic story! The wood looks reclaimed or possibly older than me. It creates a very organic look. And I love that this whole work space does not feel stuffy nor too serious. They did a great job mixing materials and textures to give the space a lived in but very stylish look. Modern black table lamps are great for adding contrast to a neutral space.
Graphic designer Cassie Pyle needed a stylish space to work in, and I think she created just that. The walnut desk is a good size for a small space and it also offers plenty of storage. I like how she paired the filing cabinet next to the desk for even more storage. The muted tones throughout this space work well together! And even if you use a stylish pendant light, don't rule out a modern wall sconce. As you can see, they compliment each other perfectly.
Remember, when designing your office space, the sky is the limit. Think outside of the box and you'll create a masterpiece.

When we moved in to our current home, the first detail we noticed was that our modern bedroom was quite a bit smaller than our previous home. It wasn't a huge deal because we had already downsized our belongings. But I still wanted the space to look spacious and bright. To do this in any space, all you need to do is keep with a bright white scheme.
This calls for a pretty white on the walls. The great thing about white paint is that you can pair it with any color that you'd like. When painting with color, it binds you to that specific color scheme. The bedroom above started with white walls and then added a fun yellow stripe down the wall and into the floors.
Another detail to remember when working with a small bedroom space is white bedding makes everything better. Well, maybe not literally but it sure makes for a sophisticated yet playful bedroom. One of my favorite things about hotels is the pretty crisp white bedding that you crawl into every night. You can have that same feel in your own space. I also like the way hotels are using hanging pendant lights in their bedroom designs. The room above is a great example of both elements.
A modern color scheme that is timeless is the classic black and white duo. It can be left alone or can be added onto with other colors. Again, the white makes everything seem more open and the black just adds some drama to a stark space. This bedroom shown above is a perfect example of black and white done right. Another way to achieve this look is by adding contemporary black lighting fixtures to an all white room.

Crossover between creative fields is inevitable. Music influences film, which influences fashion, which influences home design and decor. It's not always obvious and it's not always literal, but as we move forward culturally, we carry creative influences into every corner of our little worlds.
Looking at what's breaking this summer in music, we've noticed that the vibe is a throwback to vintage mod and new wave...and we can't help but wonder how that will cross over into contemporary design.
First, let's start with our summer playlist:
Rush Midnight (pictured above):
If a lovechild between Billy Ocean and Haircut 100 was actually possible, dance-inducing pleasure popsters Rush Midnight would be it. Enough said. Too much said, really.
Bratty and brash, Savages wrap the post-punk energy of Patti Smith into a well-coiffed, contemporary package.
Deer Hunter:
Washy and atmospheric indie rockers Deerhunter have always been good for summer lazing and listening, yet their most recent and raucous record, Monomania, is a much more assertive soundtrack, perfect for a lively and well-lived summer season.
Three sisters from the Valley in Los Angeles, the women in Haim were born and bred to be the pop stars they are. Their hit "Don't Save Me" is a throaty John Waite-esque anthem chronicling the heart's desire for co-dependence and the independent spirit's need to rebel against it.
The National:
Everything cools down at some time or another (even hot summer days) and The National have been providing that soundtrack for years. Poetic, measured, a touch dark and, as always, hum-along-able.
Now let's look at a handful of like-minded designs:
Clockwise from upper left: Tech Lighting Silver Glaze Aqua Glass Satin Nickel Pendant, Tech Lighting Fire Satin Nickel Cobalt Glass Mini Pendant, Possini Euro Darby Red Glass Pendant Light, Set of 2 Wishbone Y Natural Wood Side Chairs, Howard Elliott Z Mirrored Accent Table
Colored glass pendants are easy to match the vibe of your summer playlist. Mirrored accent tables and furniture definitely capture the mod mood. But is there really a correlation between music and design? Does one influence the other, or are they both just players in a greater cultural trajectory? We're not sure, but one thing's for certain: 2013 promise to be yet another good looking and listening summer.

We're fairly certain that you'll understand the obviousness of Kirkpatrick's inclusion. After being selected in the first round during the 2012 NFL draft and suffering a problematic knee injury prior to training camp, Kirkpatrick's participation was limited to 43 defensive snaps. After missing training camp, the preseason and the first seven games of the regular season, Kirkpatrick finally made his debut against the Denver Broncos on November 4. One week later he made his debut on defense against the New York Giants.
Eventually Kirkpatrick's knee turned problematic again, along with a concussion, which placed him on Injured Reserve on Christmas. What's that under the Christmas tree? It's the IR, son. His stat line ended with two tackles on defense and two on special teams.
Call it a red-shirt year (college reference, not Star Trek).
Another offseason procedure will limit him offseason work during OTAs already placing him behind those on the roster, but Kirkpatrick figures to be ready for training camp this year. And the Bengals are counting on him, but with limited forecasted opportunities. Unlike 2012, Hall comes into this season completely healthy. Even Adam Jones is feeling as healthy as he's felt for some time. Terence Newman returns after signing a two-year deal in April. We're not worried about depth. This is on Kirkpatrick, who will have to fight for playing time.
However Kirkpatrick has to prove himself first. He won't surpass Hall on the depth chart any time soon. Jones and Newman have proven themselves capable, but hardly with names etched in slabs of concrete. And Cincinnati needs Kirkpatrick on the field for experience. Eventually Terence Newman will retire. Adam Jones is a durability risk and there will be a day that Kirkpatrick has to answer, can he start in the NFL and sustain reliable production?

When it comes to commuter rail, Johnston County Commissioners sound like they want to have their cake and eat it too: They don't want to commit money to rail transit, but they also want a seat at the regional planning table.
That stance likely amuses, or irks, leaders in Orange and Durham counties, where passenger rail has fans and taxpayer support. But because passenger rail is expensive to build and operate – and, invariably it seems, a money loser – Johnston leaders are right to be cautious while keeping a toe in the public transit planning waters.
Here are the inescapable facts: Even in densely populated regions, which Johnston County and the Triangle are not, passenger rail loses money. In New York City, which has more than 8 million people, the transit system loses 17 cents per passenger mile, according to one measurement in a paper by two professors at the University of California at Berkeley. In Chicago, which is much closer in size to the Triangle, the transit system loses 42 cents per passenger mile, according to the same paper.
In total dollars, the losses are staggering – as much as $1.7 billion annually in New York, according to one estimate; about $500 million in Chicago.
One problem is that public transit systems are reluctant, for whatever reason, to charge fares that come realistically close to covering expenses. In Charlotte, for example, fares cover just 17 percent of operating expenses, according to the UC-Berkeley paper. That helps explain why public transit in Charlotte loses about $20 million annually. In New York, fares cover 67 percent of operating expenses, but that still leaves 33 percent for taxpayers to pick up. Defenders of taxpayer subsidies for public transportation argue that they have to keep fares artificially low. My one-word question is, Why?
I don't mean to rain on anyone's commuter rail parade. Truth be told, I'd be the first to pay the fare if a train leaving Selma could deliver me within walking distance of Franklin Street in Chapel Hill or Five County Stadium in Zebulon.
But Johnston County at least is decades away from having the numbers to justify a substantial investment in passenger rail. For that reason, Johnston leaders are rightfully reluctant to start coughing up taxpayer dollars.

CATEGORIES Comedy, Universal, Remakes and Sequels, Trailers and Clips, Trailers and Clips, CinematicalI know the demographic who watches all of the American Pie Presents films is quite narrow, but when I came across the trailer for American Pie Presents: The Book of Love, I had to step back and give them a bit of a golf clap. Who would have ever thought that a little high school sex comedy from 1999 would go on to spawn two theatrical sequels and four straight-to-video titles? Were there any among us who saw Jason Biggs get intimate with an apple pie and thought, "My God, there needs to be seven of these movies"?
Yet here we are with the trailer for The Book of Love, the seventh entrant to the canon of Pie. And in case you're not a die hard fan of the last three films, they were a trip to Band Camp, a lap running The Naked Mile, and a Beta House whose crowning accomplishment was playing a game of rugby against some aggressive midgets. While the makers of those all found various tie-ins to the original films, mainly through the lineage of Stiffler, the biggest thread tying the franchise together has been Eugene Levy, and Book of Love shows no intention of letting him out of his seemingly eternal contract as Jim's Dad.
This time around, the male populace of East Great Falls High have once again stumbled upon the Bible hidden in the school's library, which you'll recall is the sex guide Casey Affleck gifted to the gentlemen of the first film. Only the book gets ruined in a freak accident, causing the amorous youngsters to track down the Bible's original creator in an attempt to recreate all of the sexual secrets contained therein.
Note: as should be expected from a sex comedy, the following trailer is not work place friendly:
Now I'm not saying it's a great looking movie, though all three of the STV sequels thus far have been tolerable in a "why am I watching this?" kind of way, but I do have some respect for a franchise that has lasted longer than anyone could have predicted and yet still manages to call back to the original film for its inspiration. I'm sure it'll be as equally passable as its predecessors, which means it'll likely feature lots of gags involving condoms, nudity, and bungled sex attempts as the boys try to track down their sex Bible; culminating in the realization that they never needed it in the first place, that they had the power to take advantage of the frivolity of America's new youth all along.

RIO RANCHO -- Hundreds of jobs have been cut from the Intel plant in Rio Rancho.
According to Natasha Martell, a spokesperson for the company, Intel is "redeploying" 400 of the plant's 3,300 positions. Some employees are retiring voluntary, others are being offered separation packages and some will be relocated to other Intel plants.
Martell cited a "shifting market" as the reason for Intel's decision.
The Rio Rancho plant will continue to produce Intel products.

Please join us on Wednesday, January 15 for our regular meeting as learn more about the work of The Land Institute!
The Land Institute, located in Salina, Kansas, believes that a solution for the 10,000 year old problem of agriculture — soil loss and degradation, ecosystem destruction, and high energy use — is not only necessary, but possible. Their goal is to fashion an agriculture as sustainable as the native ecosystems it displaced, to find a way of growing crops that rewards the farmer and the landscape more than the manufacturers of external inputs. They envision an agriculture that not only protects irreplaceable soil, but lessens our dependence on fossil fuels and damaging synthetic chemicals.
Josh Svaty serves as the Vice President of The Land Institute. He is a fifth generation farmer from Ellsworth County, Kansas. He served 7 years in the Kansas Legislature before being appointed Kansas Secretary of Agriculture in 2009. He was then Senior Adviser to the Regional Administrator in EPA Region 7. He and his wife Kimberly have two boys and are expecting another child in March.
See you January 15 at 7pm at the 1st Unitarian Society of Denver, located at 1400 Lafayette, Denver.
Please join us on Wednesday, September 18 as we celebrate the start of our 2-year focus on Food Security!
That's right- you voted, and the majority of our membership voted for the RPCVs of Colorado to spend the next two years learning more about Food Security, both locally and internationally. We will spend the first part of the meeting getting a basic overview of what "Food Security" means globally, and then will break out into small groups, led by local Food Security leaders, and work to develop how we will focus our energies over the next two year. Join the conversation!

The new Marlins home-run sculpture has been a source of much merriment here at Baseball Nation.
We have written about it many times. (Too many, some might say.) Here, for example. And here, and here, and I'm probably missing a few mentions.
So it is with... what's the word? Irony? Bemusement? Glee? that I note that there might be a problem with the sculpture. Specifically, its location:
According to Marlins players, the psychedelic home run sculpture in deep left-center could pose a problem for some hitters, specifically left-handed batters facing right-hand pitchers with sidearm deliveries.
"If it is an issue, it can no longer be there," warned Marlins utility player Greg Dobbs. "I won't be the only left-handed hitter saying something. If other teams have a problem with it, they're definitely going to voice their concern to the league."
At the moment, no one knows for sure. The Marlins don't play their first game there until Tuesday when they face the University of Miami in an exhibition game.
"It can no longer be there"? Seriously? The Marlins might be forced to demolish this kitschy structure, on which they spent untold numbers of dollars and about which incredible numbers of words have been written? Don't worry, says Marlins management:
"Not an issue whatsoever," said team president David Samson. Samson said Major League Baseball officials gave the ballpark a thorough going-over Thursday to make sure it conformed to standards that include the batter's ability to pick up a baseball as it leaves the pitcher's hand.
Well, of course team management is going to say that. Catcher John Buck, though, isn't so sure:
"It's kind of my job to scope those things out," Buck said. "It might be close. It might be all right. I don't know. We'll see. I think for left-handed batters it might be trouble."
There might not be many complaints from the opposing team on Tuesday evening -- it's not likely that a college team, the first guest in a new stadium, will say anything about the accomodations. There will be another game there Wednesday night against a college team (Florida International) and after that the next Marlins opponent in their shiny new stadium will be the Yankees, for two exhibition games on April 1 and 2, before the official Opening Day on April 4 against the Cardinals.
"If it is an issue, it can no longer be there," said Greg Dobbs. This could get interesting. Stay tuned.

If you've ever been anywhere near my and Paula's home state, you know we have an obsession with peaches. Though not native to Georgia, our blushing icon has been growing here since Spanish monks first planted them in the late sixteenth century, and today you just about can't sling a cat in Georgia without hitting at least a picture of one.
Probably no place in the state has a deeper connection with this fruit than Fort Valley, not far from where Paula cut her teeth on peaches and said her first "y'all." The land around there just seems to be uniquely made for them.
The French call this "terroir,"—and no, it's not a war tactic. Derived from a word for "land," it means a lot more than just dirt: it's the deep interconnection between an environment and its produce—like the hints of the lavender and herbs of Provence that are found in that region's wines, or the unique white mold that covers Brie.
A big part of terroir is the idea that some places are uniquely suited to a particular thing. The Fort Valley region of southeastern Georgia is just such a place for peaches. Though no longer the leading producer that it once was, it still nurtures some of the finest peaches in the country, and holds fast to its reputation as peach heaven.
And that, in case you were wondering, is why rosy-cheeked peaches adorn every welcome sign, license plate, and lottery ticket in the state, and why no Georgian could imagine going through a summer without eating at least one ripe local peach. Here's one of my own favorite ways of having them, adapted from The Savannah Cookbook.
Peach Tart
Serves 6
10 ounces (about 2 cups) all-purpose flour
4 tablespoons sugar
½ teaspoon salt
4 ounces (½ cup or 1 stick) cold unsalted butter, cut into small bits
2 tablespoons chilled lard or vegetable shortening
About ½ cup ice water
Cinnamon Sugar (recipe follows)
6 to 8 ripe freestone peaches
Whole nutmeg in a grater
3 tablespoons peach or apricot jam forced through a wire mesh strainer
Vanilla, caramel, or ginger ice cream, optional
Whisk or sift together the flour, 2 tablespoons sugar, and salt. Add the butter and lard and cut it in with a pastry blender until it resembles coarse meal. Add about 1/3 cup of ice water and work it in. Keep adding water by spoonfuls until the dough is just holding together. Gather it into a ball, cover with plastic wrap, and chill 20 minutes.
Note: the pastry can be made in a food processor fitted with a steel blade. Chill the blade 5 minutes, then fit it in the work bowl. Add the flour, sugar, and salt and pulse to sift. Add the fat and process until it resembles coarse meal. Pulse in the water a little at a time, starting with 1/3 cup, until it is holding together. Wrap and chill as in the hand method.
Position a rack in the center of the oven and preheat to 375° F. Line a 12-inch round tart pan with the dough, pressing it into the sides without stretching it. Prick well with a fork, and chill it for 20-30 minutes. Line with buttered foil (buttered side down), fill with pie weights or dried beans, and bake 20 minutes. Carefully remove the foil and weights and bake 8-to-10 minutes more, or until just beginning to color. Sprinkle the bottom with cinnamon sugar and let it cool while preparing the peaches.
Peel the peaches, halve, pit, and slice them into thick wedges. Arrange top of the crust in a single layer, slightly overlapping, in concentric circles. Sprinkle well with cinnamon sugar and a generously grating of nutmeg.
Bake until the peaches are tender and the crust golden brown, about 40 minutes. Melt the jam with the remaining sugar over medium-low heat and simmer 3 to 5 minutes. Let the tart cool slightly and brush it generously with glaze. Serve warm or at room temperature.

I have to agree about peaches being the "southern fruit of choice" when it comes to cobblers - S.C. grows a lot of peaches, too, and I can't wait until they're ripe and ready in the summer to stockpile them in my freezer so I can make fresh peach cobbler over the holidays! Just the smell of ripe peaches makes my mouth water, and baking with them is therapeutic…I can remember churning peach ice cream as a kid - haven't had ice cream that good since then!

I can't wait to try this recipe. I have a bowl of peaches just calling for it. Peaches are my favorite fruit.

3.75/5 rDev -14.2%
On draught at The Beer Stein, Chaos is black with a light tan skim leaving scattered lace.
Smell is sweet dark carmel malt with a fairly resious hop blast. Heavy on the pine, tar.
Taste is super rich and malty, with strong, sweet ethanol and herbal, sticky hops. They're dank, but a bit lost behind the robust malt; more skunky stout then anything. Lots of caramel.
Mouthfeel is sticky, hops and malt, medium+ body. A touch flabby.
Drinkability is solid for such a massive brew. All the big B. Browns IPAs have a fairly acerbic hoppiness, and this is right in line. I can't say I particularly love that...

Had this one side by side with "Awesome" and about 5-6 other "Cascadian Black Ales" .... Thanks Tyler for the opportunity!!
Pours pretty black for the style... a bit of ruby shows on the stem end of my goblet... the head is short lasting tan... little in the way of lacing.
Aromas are a bit muted citrus and plenty of roasty malt... even hints of smoke.. the hops though are still a big player.
Flavors are good dark malts carried by some background malt sweetness... the hops come big mid palate with some citrus... cascades?.... nice lingering finish, but it gets a big muddy and nothing really jumps out.
Body is good... medium with good bubbles.... Nice brew, but I honestly really liked the "Awesome" quite a bit more.

on-tap @ Belmont Station.
from notes.
Black, with a foamy, smooth tan head.
Big, piney and citrus hops upfront, with a roasty, cocoa backbone.
The taste follows the nose, though the flavors seemed just a bit more muddled here than in the nose.
Medium body, foamy carbonation.
A very well done CDA. The ABV is incredibly well hidden, and I was disappointed when I realized how high it was, as I wanted to be able to drink more of this than I did.

This is THE Cascadian Dark Ale. Had on tap twice and once in a growler. The aroma is a universe of hops. I would pay just to smell it. The taste is a hop explosion on par with l33t hoppy beers (Younger, Maharaja, etc), yes seriously. There are traces of the bready roasted malts that keep this on the Earth, and a slight alcohol burn, but at the core this is a showcase for hops with a pitch black color and smoothness that defines the style. It is a palate destroyer in the best possible way. Ultra-dank. Amazing beer.
Gold standard for the CDA style.
EDIT: Recently had a hand bottled bomber as a gift from Shawn (nicest guy ever) from the 2009 batch. The hops mellowed a bit and fused well with roasted flavors. If they ever bottle this for real it will be an unbelievable hit, and I would suspect a BA top 20 beer.

Got to try this beer as it was gifted to the Brewmaster of the brewery I work at in...a certain Port in Oregon. A fantastic brew. Poured a dark dark brown and I initially took it for a stout. Thick chocolatey looking head. Smelled the same. The taste is what threw me off - very, very hoppy. Northwest hops were very evident, with a piney middle, more hoppy than most IPA's. All I can say is I agree with everything the last reviewer said. I don't quite remember a lot, except that this beer deserves the highest rating possible, as it is probably the best batch of suds I've ever enjoyed. I've had black IPA's before, but this is just in a league of its' own. Very good gravity, very nice hoppage. Well played sirs.

An honest 100 IBU. Really, in this world of calculated bitterness, this beer is not lying when they say 100. It will smack you with a few alpha acids. Dark, bitter, smooth, thick, and strong, this is the beer that defines cascadia dark ale, the sexier nomenclature for the silly name "dark IPA"
Roasted flavors, more smoke than coffee, less chocolate than either. Hops are bitter, piney, no floral here. This is a beer that takes no prisoners and makes you want more.
It's like making love under a hop trellis, pungent and sticky and sensual. Barley Brown, who ever you are, lets make a date in yakima.

On my last visit to Barley Browns, the owner gave me a bottle of this rare ale. It's rare because BBs is a small, remote brewpub that doesn't ordinarily bottle their beer, and because it's the only example I know of an imperial black ale. Chaos is essentially an imperial version of Turmoil, a black ale sometimes thought of as an India black ale, or, as they call it in Baker City, a Moxee black ale - named for the valley near Yakima where the hops are grown.
I can't remember the stats on this beer. I believe I was told that it was two years old and that it was somewhere near 10% ABV, though I could be wrong. It was brewed as something of an experiment - a very successful one I'd say. Chaos pours a porter-like shadowed garnet color and releases a heavy pinesap aroma complimentary to its taste. Some of its maltier aspects taste like brown ale, and there's even a few hints of coffee. But the overriding theme is one of an imperial IPA with abundant, resinous hops. The dark coloring contributes only modestly to the flavor and reminds me in some way of a really good throat lozenge. (Now there's an idea - the throat lozenge that tastes like beer!)
Interesting, original, and pretty darn solid. Would sit well on the same shelf as Hair of the Dog Adam.

Reviewing this from tasting notes back when Belmont Station had CDA week. I was also able to try this out on 4/18/2010 out of an unlabeled bottle that was given from the brewer to BA user squaremile on his recent trip to Barley Brown's. Two very different beers to compare.
appearance - a solid dark beer with a beautiful head and lacing
smell - plenty of complexity and hops in the nose
taste - incredibly complex, a huge beer and exemplary style for the cascadian dark ale/black ipa class, a unique roasted taste
mouthfeel - a remarkably medium/heavy body
drinkability - a huge beer of epic proportions, amazingly complex and enjoyable

Completing the troika of reviews, on-tap served in the land of big burly hoppy beers, aka Baker City, OR., poured into tulip, 2.25.11.
Dark brown almost jet squid ink black body no visible carbonation due to nearly opaque hue. 3/4 finger light tan head, medium dissipation with significant lacing. Whap! Big hop hit in the nose, piney, tropical more than citrusy, no roast character to speak of ala Turmoil, Taste mirrors nose, quite well balanced for such a frickin' hop bomb. Mouthfeel is surprisingly light for style, a bit slick, perfectly carbonated leading to a dry finish. You'd never guess this latest batch was 10% ABV, quite drinkable. IMHO, the benchmark for the style. Damn, I wish Shawn Kelso could brew this more often, a truly amazing beer. One of the true advantages to living in Eastern Oregon. Most Highly Recommended.
