FooDoodler: the review
Anyone who reads this blog knows I praise the virtues of Americolor in nearly every post. As for my edible markers, I almost always use their Gourmet Writers. Well, the good folks at FooDoodler sent me two sets of their edible markers to try, the 10-pack fine line and the 8-pack FooDoodler with the wider tips. The results? I was mightily impressed.
While the wider tipped markers would be great for kids (like my 3-year old who went nuts coloring marshmallows) and are good for filling in large spaces, the markers that got me were the fine line. The line is much thinner than even the Americolor Gourmet Writers so you can really achieve fine detail. While the KopyKake food coloring pens have a comparably thin line (and I do like my KopyKakes by the way), I prefer the flow much better on the FooDoodlers, as I found the KopyKake markers ran a bit dry. So while I'll never rid of my Americolor, the FooDoodlers will forever occupy the space next to them in my drawer.
The Giveaway!!!
As I said, I was mightily impressed by FooDoodlers. And so, I went out and bought both the ten pack fine line and the eight pack set for you! Well, one of you, though I do wish I could buy them for everyone.
two sets of FooDoodlers and a house cookie cutter
how to win:
just leave a comment to this post and I'll choose one randomly
the deadline:
Friday, July 23, midnight EST
And just to up your chances even more, be sure to visit my other gig. They are also hosting a FooDoodler giveaway HERE. (Be sure to note the different entry rules; you need to click to the entry page, not just leave a comment to that giveaway.)
PS to Victoria et al.: I'm notlimiting to the US. The giveaway is worldwide. But it may take a bit longer for a non-US shipment to arrive
I found this cute little 4-inch house cutter and figured it would be perfect for the markers. I rolled out fondant and cut out houses. Then you can adhere to the cookies with light corn syrup or a thin layer of frosting. Alternatively, you can top cookie houses with flooded white royal icing. To make your own fondant, click HERE. For cookie and frosting recipes, click HERE. For tips on flooding cookies with icing, click HERE and follow steps 1 and 2, letting icing dry overnight before drawing. For tips on where to find supplies, click HERE.
how to draw a house on white fondant or flooded white royal icing:
1. draw two long rectangles–or make the inside lines scalloped– and fill with brown (please food coloring marker makes, consider a gray!)
2. draw and fill two brown rectangles for the front steps and a brown rectangle for the chimney
3. draw and fill a red door
4. draw and fill squares and a circle with yellow for windows
5. add red rectangles for shutters around the windows and a red chimney
6. outline everything in black
7. add a dot for a door knob, some "+"s on the windows, a square for the window boxes, and a couple lines for bricks on the fireplace
8. make a bunch of dots in the window boxes for flowers

Top young novice could tackle Ladbroke World Hurdle at Festival
8:00am Thursday 20th December 2012 in Sport By Danny Hall, Sports Editor
CONEYGREE, the unbeaten novice hurdler part-owned by Alan Waller from Ashton Keynes, could target the Ladbrokes World Hurdle for top stayers now that four-time winner Big Buck's has been retired for the season due to injury.
Coneygree, owned and bred by a syndicate including Waller and the late Lord Oaksey's wife Chicky, made it three from three over hurdles with an impressive win at Cheltenham on Saturday. Among his well beaten rivals was former Grand National winner Mon Mome. Jockey Mattie Batchelor made the running at a strong pace on Coneygree and when the Paul Nicholls-trained Aerial challenged at his quarters after the final flight, the Mark Bradstock-trained stayer sped away up the final hill.
He is now favourite for the Albert Bartlett Novices' Hurdle at the Festival in March, but connections will consider taking on his elders in the World Hurdle.
Sara Bradstock, the trainer's wife and assistant, said: "He will have one run before the Festival – hopefully it will be around the end of January in maybe something like the Challow Hurdle (Newbury). He's earned a crack at a race like that.
"He was most impressive (on Saturday). We wanted to see if he'd stay three miles and I don't think there's any doubt now.
"Would we be tempted by the World Hurdle now there is no Big Buck's?', we'd have to be."
Paul Nicholls saddled four winners on the Saturday card while Birdlip-based jockey Jason Maguire won at Cheltenham 24 hours earlier on possible RSA Chase prospect Super Duty, who is trained by Donald McCain and jumped superbly.

"I was flabbergasted and coming to my car and flagging down and I started driving – I didn't even go immediately home."Whitmore, a Clark Atlanta graduate, lives close to the college and an elementary school. Atlanta City Councilmember Cleta Winslow said she's asked Mayor Kasim Reed to take action."We had gotten rid of it for quite a long time. It hadn't been in that area, but now it has come back, so I've talked to the mayor's office," Winslow said. Mayor Reed will have a representative at a meeting scheduled for Tuesday evening at the Washington Park branch library on MLK Drive.

Maicon Santos' two-goal substitute performance had me thinking this week, how often have Fire players come off the bench to tally a brace?
The Answer: It's a very rare thing… Santos' effort on Sunday was just the fifth time (or .008%) in the club's 573 all-time competitive matches that a player has scored two goals off the bench. It was just the third time in MLS league play and first since 2006.
The others...
Orr Barouch - Chicago Fire 4, New York Red Bulls 0 - U.S. Open Cup Quarterfinal (7/12/2011)
In a memorable match that was moved up to 5pm because of a massive power outage at Toyota Park, Barouch came on at halftime for Cristian Nazarit with the Fire already leading 2-0. It took the Israeli youth international just five minutes to make it 3-0 before closing the scoring off a feed from Diego Chaves in the 69th minute (WATCH).
PERUSE: TrueCar Player Registry
Barouch led the side with three goals in Open Cup play on the way to the tournament final that year.
Chad Barrett – Chicago Fire 2, Real Salt Lake 1 – MLS Regular Season (6/28/2006)
Throughout much of his first two seasons with the Men in Red, Chad Barrett was an oft-used second half attacking sub. In this match, he repaid Dave Sarachan's faith in him, entering for captain Chris Armas in the 68th minute before heading home the equalizer off a cross from Justin Mapp in the 80th minute (WATCH).
Five minutes later, Mapp would slot Barrett through the RSL backline before the second-year striker put slid his effort past Scott Garlick and in off the post for the winner (WATCH).
The effort was the first of two braces for Barrett during his time with the Men in Red, the other coming in a 5-1 victory at Red Bull on May 25, 2008.
Dipsy Selolwane – Chicago Fire 4, San Juan Jabloteh 0 – CONCACAF Champions Cup (3/17/2004)
With the team coming off a somewhat shocking 5-2 first leg defeat away to the Trinidadian side, the Men in Red returned to Soldier Field needing four goals in the second leg in order to advance.
Though Damani Ralph took the aggregate score to 5-3 just before halftime, Selolwane entered for current Fire captain Logan Pause to provide more offense after the break. The Botswanan international's long-range effort in the 51st minute brought the Fire to within a goal before his empty net finish 11 minutes later brought the score level.
Selolwane proved to be Man of the Match when he set up Chris Armas' 90th minute series winner to push the Fire past Jabloteh 6-5 on aggregate and into the Champions Cup semifinals.
Interestingly, that performance was the only brace of Selolwane's Fire career, though he did come up with back-to-back game-winners in the team's run to the U.S. Open Cup final that season.
Hristo Stoitchkov – Chicago Fire 7, Kansas City Wizards 0 – MLS Regular Season (7/4/2001)
Of course the Mad Bulgarian was the first to do this with the Fire and of course it came in the Fourth of July Massacre.
With the team already leading 4-0, there was little need for Stoitchkov to come on in the 78th. One minute after entering the match, Piotr Nowak scored his second to take the game to 5-0 and then Stoitchkov proceeded to drive the dagger in tallying in the 83rd and 88th minutes to exact revenge for the Fire's MLS Cup loss to Kansas City the year before (WATCH).
Like Barrett, Stoitchkov tallied two braces while with the Men in Red. The first came in his debut appearance, a 4-2 Opening Day loss to the Dallas Burn on March 18, 2000.
In celebration of Maicon Santos, and Daniel Paladini's selection for MLS Team of the week, we put together a couple of GIFs of their goals from the weekend (just in case you missed them).
Happy watching!
Last month we asked you to help us pick who our Quaker Bobblehead giveaway should be for our July 7 game against Sporting KC.
After two weeks of voting, it was clear that one player campaigned much harder than the rest of his teammates for the right to be immortalized on a Quaker Bobblehead.

Following Sunday's 3-1 win over New York the two club's reserve sides also played. With a lot of injuries, the Fire were forced to field five Academy and one guest player in what we'll call a character-building 6-1 defeat...
I'll be honest, there wasn't much pretty about the game but Fire rookie midfielder Yazid Atouba did reward the fans that stuck around with the beautiful strike. Que Golazo!

A quick update on the injury front for Sunday's game vs. New York...
MLSsoccer.com's Franco Panizio reports that forward Fabian Espindola, who has been listed as questionable all week with a hamstring strain, will not be traveling to Chicago for Sunday's game.
Espindola also missed Red Bull's 2-1 win over Philadelphia last week.
Panizio also reports that frontline partner Thierry Henry will be part of the 18, though he seems likely to come off the bench for the second-straight week.
Also listed as questionable in recovery from an MCL strain, the Frenchman played 31 minutes and scored the game-winner in his team's victory over the Union.
On the Fire front, the latest Athletico Injury Report released Friday saw Michael Videira and Steven Kinney removed from the list, though both have been out of action for multiple weeks.
The Fire will be thin in midfield if questionable players Dilly Duka and Patrick Nyarko (hamstring tightness) and Alex (calf contusion) are unable to go on Sunday.
After another tough loss two weeks ago against Chivas USA, the Fire look to pick up their first win of the season against the Red Bulls on Sunday afternoon (4pm CT on ESPN2/La Ley 107.9FM). New York relied on a bit of Henry magic to pick up three points against Philly last week. Here are some things to look for from a tactical perspective:
Targeting Holgersson – get him in 1v1 situations
Anyone who has watched MLS over the past few seasons knows that Jamison Olave is one of the league's great defenders. One of Olave's great strengths is his recovery speed, something his partner Markus Holgersson doesn't possess. While Holgersson is very adept in the air, if the Fire can get him separated from Olave, it may open the Red Bulls up. The more times the Fire can get players like Chris Rolfe in 1v1 situations with the Swede, the better.
TICKETS: Fire vs. Red Bulls Sunday at 4pm CT
Pause, Lindpere Preview Red Bull
Holgersson also has a tendency to switch off at times, as was seen in the goals Red Bull gave up against Philly last week and against Montreal in a 1-0 loss earlier in the season. As is the case with Arne Friedrich for the Fire, Jamison Olave makes everyone around him better, but if the Fire manage to separate him from Holgersson, they must take advantage.
Stopping Juninho – stifling the deep lying playmaker
The 38-year-old Brazilian Juninho has excelled in the deep lying playmaker role for the Red Bulls so far this season. Juninho plays ahead of the back four and receives the ball from the defenders before starting the attacks from a very deep position.
His exceptional passing range means he can easily look to play the ball up to Dax McCarty through the middle, play it out to the wing, or look for a long ball up to Tim Cahill who is excellent in the air.
The Fire must try and make it difficult for Juninho to start the attacks, and the prime candidate for this role is the second striker, namely Rolfe or Alex (if he's available). In the second leg of the recent Champions League match between Manchester United and Real Madrid, United forward Danny Welbeck did a great job of stifling Madrid's deep lying playmaker Xabi Alonso and I look for Rolfe or Alex to try and emulate that on Sunday.
When the Fire lose the ball in the attacking third, someone must immediately look to pick up Juninho and try and make it difficult for the Red Bulls to play through him.
Athletico Coaching Corner with Matko
Helping out on the right – don't isolate the right back
Last game, Wells Thompson did a solid job filling in a right back, a position with little player consistency for the Fire due to injuries this season. Chivas USA did look dangerous however when the managed to get Wells in 1v1 situations, especially in the first half.
READ: Stopping Thierry Henry
With Logan Pause nearing fitness it may be the case that Pause slots in on the right with Wells moving ahead of him but in either case, the right midfielder must track back and help. The Red Bulls love to have Henry drift wide and the Fire must try and prevent him from getting in 1v1 situations at all costs.
Though many would argue the Red Bulls' weakest players are the wingers, outside defenders like Heath Pearce are not afraid to get forward and support in the attack. Red Bull's movement off the ball from players like McCarty and Henry make them a hard team to defend against.
Though the Fire are the home team, head coach Frank Klopas said that the number one goal for Sunday's match is keeping a clean sheet. With that in mind, a solid defensive effort from front to back is essential.
Prediction: 1-0 Fire with a goal from Sherjill MacDonald who looked to be almost back to his old self last weekend.

The Fire head back home Sunday afternoon after picking up a hard fought point in Kansas last weekend. Though the team didn't score for the third game in a row, the solid performance despite missing key players was encouraging. Sunday's opposition Chivas USA come to Bridgeview full of confidence after picking up four points in their last two games. Here are some things to look out for from a tactical perspective on Sunday (Coverage at 3:30pm CT on My50)
High pressure - Chivas players will not stop running
El Chelís, the new Chivas coach, has his team playing a 3-4-3 system with an emphasis on pressuring the opposing team very high up the field. Anyone who has watched Barcelona under Pep Guardiola/Tito Vilanova or Athletic Club under Marcelo Bielsa knows that the high pressure tactic can be very effective, especially against an opponent who is not prepared for it.
Get Tickets for Sunday's game vs. Chivas USA
Chivas' three attacking players hound their opponents' defense and try to not allow them to play out of the back. This tactic will put a lot of pressure on suspected midfield starters Daniel Paladini and Jeff Larentowicz to drop deep and collect the ball from the defenders. The goal of the 3-4-3 with the high pressure is to try and win the ball back from your opponent as high up the pitch as possible.
A recent example of this tactic working to perfection was in Chivas' only win to date in week two against FC Dallas. The winning goal came from forcing the Dallas defensive midfielder into playing a suicide ball back to center back George John whose lax first touch allowed Oswaldo Minda to waltz in and score. With this tactic in mind, concentration and communication between the defense and the central midfielders will be very important Sunday.
Balls over the top/in behind - how to beat the 3-4-3
Previewing Chivas USA
The downside of Chivas 3-4-3 tactic is that it leaves a lot of space on the outside for the Fire to exploit. In Chivas' last two games against LA and Dallas, the wingers got caught too far up the field on multiple occasions, especially when the opposition was able to force a turnover and transition quickly into attack.
In recent games for the Fire, wingers Dilly Duka and Patrick Nyarko have been required to help out the defense but against Chivas they will find that space will be a lot easier to come by and should be looking to make forward runs into space whenever possible. The Fire must look for the long ball into space constantly because getting a ball in behind can really open Chivas up.
UPDATE: Duka listed as 'Questionable' for Sunday
When the Fire inevitably get a ball in behind, they must get more players into the box, especially against a three man back line. In Chivas' opening games, often times it was a defender who had to drift wide to pick up the runner, leaving less numbers and more space in the middle for the opposing team to exploit.
Fouls fouls and more fouls - Fire must stay calm and focused
In Chivas' last two games, they have committed a whopping 40 fouls, something that clearly frustrated their opponents. Part of the reason for that many fouls is the high pressure tactic, trying so frantically to win the ball back, leading oftentimes to a foul.
That being said, another key aspect of Chelís' tactics is to try and stop the other team from getting in any sort of rhythm. How do you do that? By fouling your opponent and slowing the game down, of course.
READ: Can Pause go at right back Sunday?
When a Chivas player is beaten by his man, the natural response is to foul the player. The LA/Dallas players and coaching staff were constantly yelling at the officials for the amount of fouls Chivas committed, but this frustration played right into Chivas' hands.
On the other side of the ball, when Chivas attack, they often look to pick up set pieces in their opponents half. Their players hit the deck when they feel the slightest bit of contact, another aspect of their game plan that can really get under the skin of the opponent. The Fire players and coaching staff must keep their cool, especially if the score line isn't to their liking, because despite their coaches claims to the contrary, Chivas would gladly leave Bridgeview with a point.
Prediction: 2-0 Fire with goals from Chris Rolfe and Dilly Duka.

Fire head coach Frank Klopas did his first media round-up of the week on Wednesday. Some choice quotes from this afternoon's session:
On Paolo Tornaghi's experience stepping in for Sean Johnson last season
"He basically came in at that point as a younger third keeper but he won that second position in preseason and the games that he played. We had a veteran guy as our number two, knowing that Sean had Olympic qualifying games, you saw that he was the one that started in the first game in Montreal.
"We have all the confidence in him, he's played well and we know we're going in a situation with World Cup qualifying and Sean being with the national team, its great for him but we have all the confidence in Paolo in moments like this to step in and do a good job because he's very good 'keeper."
On Bakary Soumare's comments regarding his desire for a trade to the Fire
"With the salary cap and what teams want for players, it's not always so easy. I know Baky very well, he spent a long time here and I saw that. It's great when you treat guys in the right way, they feel this is always their team. There's always a lot of implications but you look into every situation for sure."
On the team's outlook to bring in a striker before the summer transfer window
"We're looking at everything. Any opportunity to see if we improve the team we're going to look at it. You might feel there will be need somewhere, players might become available but the needs might be something different. We're looking at all that but also knowing that it's early in the season."
On the personality of Chivas USA coach Jose Luis Sanchez Sola
"I don't know the guy. It seems like he has the team on the right track and they're working hard and he's done a good job so far. Other than that, I don't know. He's a competitive guy just like I am."

An SUV driven by 22-year-old Tyler Causey smashed into an apartment building on Downing Court near Nottingham Way Thursday afternoon.
Causey wasn't able to stop before hitting the brick building because of a medical condition. He was disoriented, and told EMTs that he could not remember what happened.

"We were just thrilled to death to get it," said Susie Vann of the Walker County Humane Society.
The society, founded in 1979, has provided low or no-cost spays and neuters for 168 animals since April 2012. The group does not currently have a shelter or facility to house animals, but is serving the community by helping to lessen the burden of strays and overpopulation, which Vann said has been successful and she hopes to be able to grow the program even more in the coming years.
The program is income-based and applicants must fill out the application, provide proof they reside in Walker County and provide proof of income.
Applications are available on the Walker Humane Facebook page, as well as at the offices of the two vets participating in the program, Jeremiah Alexander and David Cain at Farmstead Veterinary Clinic.
The grant is part of the REMY Fund, which provides money for companion animal focused nonprofit organizations.
The fund, now in its third year, was founded by Ken Jackson and named in honor of his late dog.
Equines Assisting Special Individuals (EASI) also received $2,000, for construction of an all-weather, covered arena in Jasper, that would allow the agency to provide animal-assisted therapy to special needs individuals even in inclement weather according to the press release.
To donate to the Remy Fund, make a gift online at www.foundationbirmingham.org or by check to 2100 First Avenue North, Suite 700, Birmingham, AL 35203.
The grant cycle for 2014 grants from the Remy Fund for Pets and Animal Services will open for applications March 1, 2014.

Dale's tips include verifying information – even when its developing fast, listening to social media and having a pre-prepared plan to help with difficult decisions, in this case, whether or not the Post should name the shooter.

Gov. Dannel P. Malloy has some advice for fellow Democrat Chris Murphy: fight back. CTNewsJunkie.com reports that Malloy offered up his thoughts at a ribbon-cutting ceremony in Hartford.
Polls show the Senate race at a stastical dead heat despite Connecticut's preference for Democrats. Linda McMahon has been outspending Murphy with her personal wealth.
Malloy reportedly said that, "sooner or later people have to talk about policies."
Fourth District
While Jim Himes was awarded by the Concord Coalition for supporting a failed bipartisan budget that would have reduced the federal deficit, Steve Obsitnik questioned Himes' fiscal credentials.
"The notion that Congressman Himes has made any effort to reduce the federal deficit is as far from the truth as it could possibly be," said Amanda Bergen, spokesperson for the Obsitnik campaign. "He has voted to spend more and more of the taxpayers' money at nearly every opportunity."
Some of the examples cited included Himes' support of the $789 billion stimulus plan and the Affordable Health Care Act (also known as Obamacare).
The Concord Coalition, which is dedicated to reducting the national deficit, spoke highly of Himes and 37 other politicians.
"We are honoring Republican and Democratic House members who this year put the national interest above political partisanship," said Robert Bixby, Concord's executive director, in a statement. "Instead of pursuing narrow agendas, they put everything on the table, made tough choices, and called for shared sacrifice."

Thanks to some quality at bats and some non-quality pitching, the Cardinals added two big runs of insurance in the bottom of the fifth to pull ahead of the Rangers 5-2. At that point, what Tony La Russa and Cardinals fans everywhere were looking for from Chris Carpenter was a shutdown inning. You know, a shutdown inning. An inning where the pitcher makes quick work of the opponent to bring his own bats right back up.
Well, based on the results, Carpenter turned in that shutdown inning in the top of the sixth. He wasn't dominant in any way and he was actually rather lucky, but the Rangers went down 1-2-3.
Adrian Beltre led off with a ground out. That was nothing. Nelson Cruz stepped in and lifted a deep fly ball to left field. A very deep fly ball.
It just wasn't deep enough, barely. The next batter was Mike Napoli, and Napoli hit the ball hard the other way. But he hit it on a line, and that line was pointed directly at Lance Berkman. So while two of three Rangers batters socked the crap out of the ball, they both made outs.
And speaking of outs, the Rangers have just nine of those left. They trail 5-2 in the bottom of the sixth, and Carpenter has wound up looking far better than one would've expected from his early performance.

Phillies top Brewers, go over .500 for first time this season
The Phillies won in Milwaukee Thursday night to go above the .500 mark for the first time all season.
The 5-1 win over the Brewers was the Phillies' fifth consecutive victory, giving the team a season-high winning streak at the start of its 10-game road trip.
Tyler Cloyd picked up the win for the Phillies. He is now 2-2 on the season since being called up from the minors.
John Mayberry Jr., the hero of Tuesday's come-from-behind, extra-innings win over Miami, was 3 for 5 with an RBI and run scored.
Delmon Young wrapped up the Phillies' scoring on the night with a solo home run in the fifth inning. It was Young's sixth home run of the year and his fifth in his last 15 games.
Cloyd pitched 6 2/3 scoreless innings, allowing just four hits while walking five and striking out two.
Cliff Lee, who is 7-2 on the season, gets the start for the Phillies tonight in Milwaukee. The game is scheduled to begin at 8:10 p.m.

Girl Scout leads conservation projects in local parks to earn Gold Award
KINGWOOD, Texas (Oct. 1, 2010) – Girl Scout Senior Stephanie W. completed conservation projects at River Grove and Deer Ridge Parks to earn the Girl Scouts of San Jacinto Council Gold Award, the highest award a Girl Scout can achieve. Less than five percent of girls who join Girl Scouts earn this recognition.
"I learned a lot about our environment," says Stephanie, a senior at Kingwood High School. "I was most interested to learn that plants I see all the time aren't necessarily supposed to be there and some are considered invasive."
Earning the Gold Award is a significant honor that requires recipients to demonstrate outstanding leadership skills, career planning, community involvement and personal development. It takes more than 100 service hours and two to three years of intensive work to complete the award requirements, which include planning and completing a project that is a service to the community.
"I chose this project because my family has always taken vacations at national parks, and I have formed a strong interest in the parks," Stephanie explains. "I wanted to take that interest down to a local level and do something with my project that would benefit our parks in Kingwood."
At River Grove Park and Deer Ridge Park, Stephanie led volunteers in planning 1,400 bare root seedlings, including loblolly pine, green ash, redbud, Shumard oak and cherry bark oak. She also held three workdays to remove invasive plants. In addition, Stephanie led a workshop for Brownie and Junior Girl Scouts with a conservation theme.
As a Girl Scout, Stephanie has served as a Program Aide for day camps. At Kingwood High School, she is a member of FFA and National Honor Society. Following graduation she hopes to attend Stephen F. Austin State University to study environmental science and forestry.
Girl Scouts of the USA is the world's preeminent organization for girls, with a membership of more than 3.7 million girls and adults. Girl Scouting builds girls of courage, confidence, and character, who make the world a better place. Chartered by GSUSA to provide Girl Scouting locally, Girl Scouts of San Jacinto Council is one of the largest Girl Scout councils in the country serving more than 72,000 girl members and 18,000 adults in 26 southeast Texas counties.

With the Forest Service's Biscuit Fire salvage
logging program acknowledged to be a failure, Oregon Reps. Greg
Walden and Gordon Smith want to speed up future post-fire
Wildfires cannot be entirely prevented by logging or anything else, but small-scale prescribed burns can help make them less destructive.
A group of scientists at Oregon State University's
College of Forestry publish a controversial study saying salvage
logging may actually slow forest recovery
If we truly want to "salvage" our forests – and the
rest of our environment – we need to think beyond salvage
logging, and acknowledge that the value of dead trees cannot be
measured in board-feet alone
A judge rules against a plan to salvage-log old-growth
wood from the Timbered Rock Fire in Oregon, and the ruling could
affect other proposed fire sales in old-growth forests
Despite angry environmentalists, rotting timber, and
unenthusiastic logging companies, the Bush administration is
determined to push logging on roadless land burned by the Biscuit
Fire in southwestern Oregon
Forest Service accidentally cuts a designated botanical
area in southwest Oregon; California, New Mexico and Oregon sue
Bush administration over repeal of Roadless Rule; Utah won't
let group test Great Salt Lake fish for mercury; BLM admits grazing
regs need more work
Dan Donato, whose controversial study on salvage logging
sparked an academic firestorm, talks about his research and all it
The proposed salvage logging of the Biscuit Fire area in
Oregon's Siskiyou Forest is one of the largest timber sales
in history, and critics say it's not only ecologically
dangerous, but undermines the Roadless Rule
The large-scale salvage logging planned for the Biscuit
Fire area in southern Oregon and Northern California marks the
first time logging has been approved on land previously protected
by the Roadless Rule

Web Product Manager
Because the job requires having so much expertise in multiple and diverse areas, this field attracts some awfully bright boys and girls. To get one of the primo positions, you'll want to shoot for a master's.
Even that alone won't get you into most of the good companies – they will also want to see that you have plenty of experience, so you'll likely have to put in your time (think 5-8 years) in a related field, or doing project management for lesser companies.
You need to be able to demonstrate extensive knowledge of HTML and CS5, in addition to other programming languages. A little French probably couldn't hurt either.
You'll need both sides of your brain firing on all cylinders, so if you're artistic but can't figure out how much everyone owes on a check, or can do advanced calc but can only draw stick figures… you may want to keep on lookin'.

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE: July 30, 2010
Human Relations Department holds Kansas City Government Contracting and Procurement Forum
The City of Kansas City, Mo., Human Relations Department will host the fourth annual Kansas City Government Contracting and Procurement Forum in partnership with the State of Missouri and the Mid America Minority Business Development Council. The forum will be held from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. on Aug. 5 at the Hyatt Regency Crown Center, 2345 McGee Street Kansas City, MO 64108. Admission is free, but registration is required to attend.
KCGCP is the product of a coalition of representatives, from a variety of organizations, who share a common goal of providing small business owners information and contacts that will help their business succeed and grow. Forum attendees learn to navigate the maze of government contracting and receive critical information, networking opportunities and access to local and regional business partners.
"Small homegrown business is the engine that powers Kansas City's economy, and we want to do everything we can to make sure our small businesses and entrepreneurs have all the information they need to compete for government contracts," said Mayor Mark Funkhouser. "I encourage Kansas City business owners to attend and pick up some tips on how to best work with the City, other government agencies in our region and the federal government."
City departments, local municipalities, state and federal agencies will have informational displays and promote opportunities available to area businesses. Focus will be on providing attendees with details of government needs as well as insight into the best business practices for submitting bids. Several Kansas City area government entities with multimillion-dollar projects will give detailed presentations regarding current and upcoming project needs.
"The Human Relations Department's increased efforts to streamline certifications and improve collaboration with vested stakeholders and community partners have enabled the City to reach the highest level of minority participation since the program's inception," said Phillip Yelder, director, Human Relations Department. "Through the end of April 2010, MWBE utilization was approximately 29.45 percent of the City of Kansas City, Mo. awarded contracting dollars. I hope that the attendees of this forum take advantage of everything that KCGCP has to offer; and that the investment of their time proves profitable."
The event is also hosting an awards luncheon. The Awards Recognition Ceremony will honor contractors and small businesses that have demonstrated a commitment to minority business development. Carlton Highsmith, founder of Specialized Packaging will present the luncheon address. Mr. Highsmith is recognized nationally as an advocate for economic inclusion and for expanding economic opportunities for all Americans through entrepreneurship and business ownership. The cost of the luncheon is $40. Attendees may register to attend the awards luncheon.
For more information about the Kansas City Government Procurement Forum, contact Ashlea Blue at email@example.com, 816-513-1813 or by visiting kcgcp.org.

New Old Lompoc Brewery - LSD (Lompoc Strong Draft) on tap at a local watering hole, pint glass.
Look - Pours a thin dark brown black with reddish hue and minimal/negligible head. Chunky lacing.
Smell - Sweet and roasted malt. Vanilla, malt chocolate, dates and maybe even prunes. Aroma is hard to gather in the pint glass but it's obvious that it is quite complex.
Taste - Slightly creamy with carbonation, sweet chocolate, some roasted coffee and malt, along with deep dark fruit. Some hops but being a hop-head this is a barely noticeable aspect to me.
Mouthfeel - Sticky and medium-bodied. No booziness present. Quite drinkable for the style (if you can fit it into a style). Slight hop bitter and toasted sticky malts.
Overall - The most interesting brew categorized into this style I have had and overall one of the most interesting brews I have had overall. It is almost like a hazelnutty dessert beer. Definitely recommend for those looking to try something different.

Poured from a bomber into a true pint, the beer is a dark, vibrant, ruby-tinged dark mahogany coloring with a filmy, slim, light tan colored head. Aromas of milk chocolate, fig, cream/milk, and roasted highlights. Very rich and smooth nose. Flavors of roasted coffee and mocha initially, with a bitter hops undertone and a rich, tangy, smoked caramel highlight. Very balanced, with a subtle warmth that builds as you drink. Creamy hazelnut and mocha aftertaste, with a slight bitterness. Solid brew. Bitter, slightly cloying linger to the finish. Very easy to drink.

Poured into a Dogfish Head pint glass. Pours a dark chestnut brown with a one finger light tan head with great retention and lacing. Aroma of toasted malt, nuts and a hint of dark dried fruit. Flavor is toasted malt, hint of chocolate and smoke and dark dried fruit, ending a bit abruptly to a long lasting charred malt and hop bitterness. Medium bodied. Leans towards being a hoppy brown ale. The flavors are pleasant, but something is missing in the finish, most likely a bit more malt support for the lightly smokey toastiness. Interesting and different, but needs some more intensity.

Poured from a bomber into a pint glass in high elevation Libby, Mont. Reviewed live.
A- Two finger mocha head, fluffy lacing and large bubbles. Decent retention. Dark brown, Coca-Cola color.
S- Chocolate and roast malts. Cocoa nibs, deep rich chocolate notes. Vanilla notes as well.
T- Boozy, weird hoppiness and sweet malts. Bitter, piney hops. Very strange beer.
M- Thick, sharp and rolls on the back of the tongue.
O- Odd beer, the taste is peculiar. It is like a nut brown and an IPA mixed together.

Thanks to VoodooImpStout for sharing this one at my tasting.
Pours a clear reddish-brown with a foamy khaki head that settles to a film on top of the beer. Small dots of lace form around the glass on the drink down. Smell is of smoked campfire, and herbal hops. Taste is much the same with a mild amount of smoke and hop bitterness on the palate with each sip. This beer has a good level of carbonation with a crisp mouthfeel. Overall, this is a good beer with some interesting aromas and flavors.

Poured from the bottle into a Dogfish Head signature glass.
A real nice tan and somewhat creamy head is formed, very tiny bubbles. A real nice dark walnut brown body, it really looks like a porter. Head manages some decent retention, and some sticky lacing in rings that cascade all the way down while drinking. Beer looks better the more you drink it.
Nose is real nice. Light toast mix of malts and caramel sugar toffee light sweetness. A little bit of spicy character, it seems like a porter is coming but this seems a little different and unique. Interesting, like this caramel and chocolate angle.
Palate comes with a bit of a light feel, slightly wet. Real nice earth hop angle slightly herbal finish with tea like notes. Chocolate and roast fills the mid palate, with a good balance of malt and hop. Light bodied and a hint of rich cocoa powder too.
Overall, what an interesting beer, quite enjoyable.

More proof the terrorists have won, yet another beer in the 22oz format. Poured into 10oz goblet. Poured a very dark mahogany color, almost black, with some red around the edges, and less than 1/4 inch of just off-white head that had low retention and some light lacing.
The aroma featured some good malts (maybe a bit of Rye?), some soft roasted notes, no real hops to speak of, a bit of alcohol and perhaps a bit bit of yeasty funk. The flavors were mostly the same mix of components, although the roast came through a bit stronger, a very good tasting brew.
The body was good, full, smooth, and even. The finish was a bit bitter and the roast lingered for a while. Drinkability was very good, although the 6.9%abv was a bit sneaky, it felt like a stronger beer. Overall, a good, if somewhat odd, brew. A must try if you see it.

Updated 3/6 at 6pm
It's been more than 10 years since the September 11th terrorism attack and in that time many changes have been made at airports. But the newest changes brought up by the TSA are considered by some a step in the wrong direction. For one, you won't need to leave your small pocket knife at home anymore! Valley News Live explains how these newest regulations, or lack there of, will be in place in the near future.
If you've taken a flight in the past ten years, you've likely been caught playing the waiting game as everyone is cleared for takeoff. Everyone including flight attendants like the one we ran into outside Hector International Airport, "it was inconvenience for us for a period of time. Just like going through TSA through our security checks, it's an inconvenience."
TSA, the Transportation Security Administration won't let you board with aerosol cans, strike anywhere matches, or more than three ounces of liquid but late April they'll let you bring items onto a plane many flight attendant union officials are concerned about.
The TSA's motto is your safety is our priority. So how do they ensure that? By banning multiple items like guns, sharp objects, and club like items. But come April 25th some of those items will be back on the fly list including sharp objects, pocket knives, and club like items like novelty baseball bats, and that has some concerned.
Tami Nelson of Williston is taking a flight to Las Vegas to get out of the North Dakota weather and says she wouldn't be comfortable knowing someone could have a knife on them,"I think it's probably not a good idea. I think it will alarm people."
So on April 25th, knives that can't lock in place, smaller than 2 and a third inches, with no molded grip, will be allowed on flights. But the one flight attendant we chatted with says it's not a concern to her. "Like I said I'm not alone on these flights and I don't think a little pocket knife is going to make that much of a difference."
You can also bring along your mini baseball bat, or a handful of sports equipment like pool sticks, golf clubs, ski poles, or a hockey stick as your carry on. But as one flight attendant puts it, if someone is prepared to use it, she's prepared to react.
"I carry duct tape that's my defense mechanism. I got passengers that are going to help me secure anyone who is giving me a hard time."
The TSA says the move will allow their security officers to better focus on finding higher threat items like explosives. The new more limited restrictions will go into effect April 25th.

The Maryland Terrapins have suspended wide receivers Quintin McCree and Ronnie Tyler indefinitely, coach Randy Edsall announced Thursday. That's an important pair of players, with Tyler coming in third on the team in receiving yards after one game and providing the Terps' only receiving touchdown and McCree contributing seven catches for 39 yards.
Maryland could use all the weaponry it can field for its next game, which is against Dana Holgorsen's West Virginia Mountaineers. Nevertheless, here's Edsall on the suspensions, which were due to the always-nebulous violations of team rules:
The expectation of our program is for our student-athletes to conduct themselves in the proper manner academically, athletically and socially. Unfortunately, Quintin and Ronnie fell short of these expectations.
Sounds like "socially" was the one that did it, if you like to speculate.

Be aware of the height of the forklift when entering or exiting buildings and pay attention to the lifting capacity of your lift truck. These steps will help to avoid product and equipment damage, as well as employee injury.
Here at Barclay, we pride ourselves on promoting the highest level of workplace safety through our OSHA compliant safety training programs and safety equipment.
While we are well aware that OSHA holds employers accountable for maintaining a safe and healthful work environment, we believe that employee safety is a shared responsibility, to be accomplished through safety awareness and diligence by all employees.
It is very important that only the operator rides in the seat of the forklift. There should be no other passengers on the forks or anywhere else. Also keep hands and feet inside the forklift at all times, as a lowered mast could sever hands, OUCH!
What is an Air Door/Curtain?
An air door, also called an air curtain, employs a controlled stream of air aimed across an opening to create an air seal. This seal separates different environments, while allowing a smooth, unhindered flow of traffic and unobstructed vision through the opening.
Summer is in full swing and escaping the constant heat has been a struggle, especially in warehouse environments. Handle the heat in a more effective way with one of Barclay's MacroAir Fans. Studies have shown that heat stress can impact output and employee health, as well as causing a strain on equipment. Our industrial fans have air circulation down to a science, aerodynamics to be exact.
Worn tires cost your company money in the life-cycle of your equipment. In fact, downtime from a forklift tire failure or repair necessitated by tire failure usually costs more money than the tire itself. Don't risk injury to employees or damage to your equipment. Replace worn industrial tires and increase safety and productivity.
Even if you are only going a few feet, it is important to keep forks low. Never travel with forks in an elevated position or lifted higher than a foot off the floor. It also never hurts to have a lookout helper if vision is not 100% clear, especially when reversing!
Taylor-Dunn is the best way to go about your business! Dependable and built tough, Taylor-Dunn's Stockchaser is a cost effective solution to improve efficiency in any warehousing application. This unique narrow aisle, highly maneuverable vehicle provides an ergonomic advantage by quickly bringing the operator closer to stock when order picking.
With the goal of reducing the hazards associated with forklifts, the Industrial Truck Association (ITA) is in Washington, D.C. today sponsoring the inaugural National Forklift Safety Day.
This event marks the convergence of manufacturers, customers, policymakers and the Administration to provide the unique opportunity for all parties to become educated and informed on industry practices meant to ensure the safest work environments possible.

The revolving door turns at Carshalton
3:48pm Thursday 31st May 2012 in Carshalton Athletic By Graham Moody, Sports Reporter
Paul Dipre has rung the changes at Carshalton Athletic – signing six players and releasing seven.
Coming in through the revolving door are Jack Clark, Ola Sogbanmu (below), Wayne Gray, Ashley Carew, Joe Benjiman and Darren Behcet, with Dean Lodge, Laurent Hamici, Tony Finn, Dean McDonald, Kennedy Adjei, Kieran Murphy, and Craig Tanner all going the other way.
Winger Clark is perhaps the most high profile addition having scored 16 goals for Cray Wanderers last season, while experienced Gray started his career at Wimbledon and has played for Southend and Leyton Orient.
"I am pleased with this progress so far and there are still a few discussions with other players going on which will be concluded soon," said manager Dipre.
"But, apart from keeping an eye on a couple of players who become available in July, there won't be many more additions.
"Combined with the core of last year's squad, I think we are getting a good balance to put in a serious challenge next season and I am confident we will be up there in April."

Thanks to its' luxurious ingredients, this pasta is fancy and decadent enough for special occasions, but is simple enough to be thrown together quickly. Rather than an elaborate sauce, the pasta is dressed with cream flavored by all of the dishes' components. This makes for a rich-tasting effect that feels far lighter than a traditional cream sauce. It's worth noting that this is one of the few recipes in which I advocate not toasting the pine nuts, because it is my experience that the toasted flavor doesn't complement the saffron, and actually competes with it. You can, of course, use any shape of pasta, but I find that penne rigatè- the penne with the little ridges- holds the perfect amount of sauce. Each element in this pasta represents one of the tastes detectable by your palate, so the result is a beautifully balanced, crave-worthy dish.
- Boil the pasta 'al dente,' according to the package instructions. Reserve one cup of the cooking liquid in case it is needed to "loosen" the sauce at the end. Drain the remainder, and set the cooked pasta aside.
- Pour about ¼ cup of boiling water over the saffron, to allow it to steep and release its flavor. Pour about ½ cup of boiling water over the currants to allow them to rehydrate. Set both aside.
- In a large skillet (one that will accommodate the entirety of the dish- a large, enameled cast-iron Dutch oven or brazier works wonderfully) heat one tablespoon of oil over medium heat, and cook the sausage, breaking up in to bite-sized pieces with a wooden spoon. When the sausage is nearly cooked through, add the shallot, cooking in the rendered fat from the sausage until softened, but not browned. Add the pine nuts and fennel seeds, and cook for one minute. Pour in cream, and reduce heat to low.
- Add in saffron- water, threads, and all. Drain the water from the currants, and add them to the cream mixture. Keep the sauce at the barest simmer for five to ten minutes, to allow all the flavors to meld. Taste, and add lemon zest, salt, and pepper to taste.
- Add cooked pasta, tossing to coat with the cream mixture. Cover, and allow the pasta to absorb some of the cream over very low heat for three to five minutes. Turn off the heat, and add in the arugula, allowing the heat from the cream and pasta to wilt it. If at this point the pasta appears dry, add in some of the reserved pasta cooking liquid, a tablespoon or two at a time, until the desired consistency is reached.
- Garnish with shaved parmesan- the best you can afford- and serve with a hearty Tuscan bread.

Key Emails Could be the Evidence Oracle Needs to Kill Google's Android Defense
"If Sun doesn't want to work with us, we have two options: 1) Abandon our work and adopt MSFT CLR VM and C# language – or – 2) Do Java anyway and defend our decision, perhaps making enemies along the way."
-Andy Rubin
That sentence is still vague and open to interpretation. He could just be talking about the open source Java language, but other emails reveal that Google was wary about using Java technologies in Android and knew it needed a license but failed to follow through.
Google's Android Devs Knew They Needed a License...
Another 2005 email between Larry Page and Andy Rubin revealed that Rubin was going to make Java the core of Android and that Google should get a license. Much later in the game in 2010, Google still hadn't gotten a license and Larry and Sergey were pushing back against Rubin's suggestion:
"What we've actually been asked to do (by Larry and Sergey) is to investigate what technical alternatives exist to Java for Android and Chrome. We've been over a bunch of these, and think they all suck. We conclude that we need to negotiate a license for Java under the terms we need."
-Tim Lindholm
If This Evidence Goes to Trial...
Would this evidence motivate Google to settle? Maybe not, but Judge Alsup seems pretty confident in Oracle's chances. Alsup commented after he had read these emails that it seemed like Google would rather "roll the dice" on litigation with Java:
"You know what they used to say about Joe Alioto," Alsup said, (Alioto was a highly successful anti-trust lawyer). "In a big case like this, he only needed two documents: He needed a document like this, the one I just read, and the Magna Carta. And he won every case. And you are going to be on the losing end of this document with Andy Rubin on the stand. … If willful infringement is found, there are profound implications for a permanent injunction. So you better think about that."
-William Alsup
These documents could easily sway a jury in favor of Oracle, given the right conditions. This ordeal may have squelched the high hopes of Google just after receiving some good news that the Judge had forced Oracle to scale back their damages claim, which was between $1.4 and $6 billion, down to a baseline of $100 million (an old figure that Sun offered to Google in the past for a 3 year royalty license). Oracle also has to decide clearly which patents they want to pursue in the trial, or there could be delays and problems with their case.
Hypocrisy Notwithstanding...
While it's easy to point out the hypocrisy of some of Oracle's public facing statements and actions—just read about Oracle's removal of Jonathan Schwartz's blog post in which he's excited about Android's launch, or see the video below (skip to 7:00)—it is still not likely that these points will sway a jury as much as the emails.
Google may yet have some new cards to play before this trial (tentatively) begins on October 31st (Halloween, Spooky! ). However, things are looking gloomy right now. Maybe Glyn Moody was right. Maybe the best defense for Google is to fund a campaign for the abolition of software patents. Although that hope seems bleak in a country where the idea of patents are firmly embedded in the social psyche.
I posed some questions to Mark Webbink about the validity of Google's defense in light of these emails. Mark is an editor at Groklaw.net and he and the other legally-savvy folks at that site have been following this case very closely. Here's the response he gave me:
First, the Rubin quote would be troubling but for the fact that GoogleSo of course, we are reminded that the case is far from over. But as I said, in the right context and the right influence over the jury, these documents could be extremely damaging to Google's case. Remember, neither the judge, nor the jury will probably have any knowledge of the fundamentals of software development.
ended up pursuing a third option, i.e., a non-Java JVM - Dalvik. It is
Google's contention that Dalvik, while it is written in the Java
programming language, is not Java bytecode but rather Dalvik byte code.
Mark Murphy describes this better here.
In addition, Google has other defenses to the Oracle claims, probably
first and foremost of which is the assertion that the Oracle patents are
invalid. The patents are already in reexamination, and initial actions
by the US Patent and Trademark Office support Google's assertion. We
won't know for sure until either the USPTO completes its reexamination
or the court case goes forward and the court evaluates the merits of the
Oracle claims. [This is why Google would like to delay the trial]
There has also been some evidence that Sun/Oracle induced Google to
infringe, and that Oracle could be estopped from now claiming
infringement. This is supported by statements from Larry Ellison
(here) and Jonathan Schwartz (here). This is not the strongest argument,
but it may tip things in the balance.
At this juncture this case could go either way, but we certainly don't
perceive it as been strongly in the favor of one party or the other.
Mark Webbink

Java was GPL'ed by Sun in 2006. While oracle may bar other JVM implementations from being certified as officially recognized Java implementations and bar them from using the trademarked name Java, as was the case with Apache Harmony, as long as google abides by the GPL license why can't they do whatever they want with the code? Google has always claimed Android is not Java and has released the source code to Android using the GPL license. Is Java not Open Source but Oracle Source?
