Faster than covered wagons, Frontier Airlines' planes part the clouds and fly the skies above the Rockies and over 80 destinations. The company operates as a scheduled passenger air carrier from hubs at Denver International and Milwaukee's General Mitchell International Airport. The airline maintains a fleet of about 50 Airbus 318/319/320 jets with onboard amenities that include satellite, and roughly 20 Embraer E170/190 jet aircraft. It operates more than 350 daily flights with 120 to roughly 160 seats in each aircraft. Once owned by Republic Airways, Frontier Airlines was acquired by an investment fund affiliated with private equity firm Indigo Partners in late 2013.
Change of Company Type
From 2009 to 2013 Frontier was owned by Republic Airways until December 2013, when it was sold to an investment fund associated with Indigo Partners.
Geographic Reach
Headquartered at Indianapolis, Frontier offers flights to more than 80 destinations in Costa Rica, the Dominican Republic, Jamaica, Mexico, and the US. It primarily operates from its hub at Denver International Airport.
Frontier's business relies upon providing a low-fare alternative to United Airlines, the #1 carrier in the Denver market, coupled with maintaining its status with Milwaukee passengers. Some 95% of its flights start or end from hubs in Denver and Milwaukee. Leading low-fare carrier Southwest Airlines has also set its sights on Denver. In an effort to capture additional regional traffic, it has expanded its presence there. Competition from other carriers flying out of Milwaukee includes Delta Air Lines, as well as AirTran and Southwest Airlines, which merged in 2011. Frontier continues to respond to the encroachment by adding nonstop seasonal service to vacation spots in Florida from cities in the Midwest.
In addition, unlike other branded airlines Frontier's network of marketing alliances is limited to a code-sharing agreement with Great Lakes Aviation, constraining its ability to attract passenger traffic. (Code-sharing enables airlines to sell tickets on one another's flights and thus offer passengers service to more destinations.) Frontier's partnership with low-cost carrier AirTran ended in mid-2011. Their arrangement, dating back to late 2006, allowed frequent flyer members of both airlines to earn and use their miles on each other's carriers. The partnership was touted as a first between low-cost airlines. Frontier has since integrated the Midwest Miles program into its own.

This week, at the Food Matters Project, we are making this fruit and fish dish which sounded strange, to me. I could not imagine a bed of fruit with fish on top and explained this way, it does not sound good. These are the times, I am thankful, I don't follow my instincts and skip the week and go ahead and make the week's designated recipe. I did only make one piece of salmon which was definitely a mistake.
Of course, when I went to cook, the fruit supply had diminished greatly, leaving me with mango and more mango and a few pears that I was saving, for a cake. If you don't tell, I will share with you what I did. I opened a can of guava and that with the mango and some cranberries and coconut, I made the fruit part of the dish. This was supposed to have hot chiles but hubby does not do well with anything hot. I subbed in some Mexican chile powder, I just got – only a tiny bit. The only other seasoning used was basil and home-grown oregano.
Inspiration hit and after topping this fruit mixture with broiled salmon, I sprinkled some pistachios, on top, and they made quite a difference. It rounded out this recipe beautifully.
Thanks, Sara from Food and Frederick for picking a dish, we really enjoy
ed, despite some hesitancy. The recipe is found on her blog and please do drop by The Food Matters Project and see what the other foodies have made.
Now for my confession. It is hard to believe, we make such foolish mistakes. When, I went to broil my fish, I decided to put it on a cookie sheet and my sheets always have parchment paper covering them, so I put this precious salmon, in the oven with the paper. Yep, you can imagine what happens to paper at a high temperature with the flame burning down on it. Fortunately, my husband walked in and smelled the burning paper and saved it. I am sharing a picture. I have certainly learned a lesson and if anyone out there would make such a silly goof, you can learn also.

Backpacker Magazine – August 2010
Turned around in the backcountry? Here are 33 essential tips to remember if you or your partner goes missing.
Guidelines for Walking Out
Please have you kids attend a "Hug-a-tree" presentation, or at least go to the web site and get you children introduced to it!
Contact your local Search & Rescue unit for info!
The Boy Scouts teach that if you are ever lost you should remember the word STOP. Each letter in this word means something you should remember when lost. The letter S is for stop and go no farther. The T is to think about what is happening and where you have been. O is to observe where you are and finally the letter P is to remind you to plan what you will do.
First of all, If your going to go hiking you should have an idea where you are going, and know how to read a map. That's if your smart enough to bring one. If you have a deck of playing cards, hell with solitare, that's kindling for a fire, or you can use them to mark a trail. If you need to bring a pack full of flares, hope your planning to find a car accident so you can warn drivers, but come on get real. Some of the comments here are just plain stupid. The fact is you should have some sort of idea where you are going, and let someone know what your plans are in case you end up getting into trouble.
Excellent prose, Steve C. Looking for a job from Backpacker Mag, are we? Good advice too: Deadlines can lead to danger and death. Familiar leads to comfort and found.
10 Essentials:
1. knife
2. first-aid kit
3. extra clothing
4. rain gear
5. water bottle
6. flashlight
7. trail food
8. matches or lighter and fire starters
9. sun protection
10. map & compass
Before you hit the trail, make a plan and give it to a friend not going with you. In the plan, answer the 5 W's:
1. Where you are going?
2. When you will return?
3. Who is going with you?
4. Why are you going?
5. What are you taking?
And as a guide to remember what is important when you get lost, The Rule of Three:
- 3 hours of extreme exposure (cold, heat, storm) can kill you, so get to some form of shelter
- 3 days without water can kill you, if you find water and can safely stay near it, then stay near it. another reason that the general rule of following water is a good rule...in most cases.
- 3 weeks without food can kill you, so don't waste time & energy foraging for food
- 3 months of isolation will generally make you crazy and you'll wish you were dead
I recently had a harrowing ordeal, felt completely frustrated and turned around. I went through the emotions of confusion, bewilderment, even anger. My local grocery store had completely rearranged the whole store. Baby cereal was where the baking stuff once was, greeting cards where the coffee once dominated the landscape. The magazines...gone! I was lost...and I knew it. There I was, a grown man, completely turned around and vulnerable. Nothing was as it should be. The landmarks and features I had come to expect were all wrong...so wrong.... It was getting late and I was getting very tired. I knew that it was past the time I was to get back and my wife would worry. "I must hurry," I thought. But I remembered that hurrying is how I hurt my knee once trying to rush down after summitting Mt. Hood. "Never climb on a deadline." That was a lesson I had learned. Deadlines like a flight scheduled for that afternoon. It's not worth it. But back to the slot canyons of the Payless, aka Kroger wilderness, I was searching in my mind for what to do. "Stay calm," I told myself, "you'll make it." Wondering if I would have to make shelter in the seasonal aisle, my heart rate slowed down and I began to think. I began to remember that this reminded me of other places I had visited on other treks. Even though someone had moved the trail signs, even moved the whole trail, I could reasonably make it out alive. I might even get what I came for...ha... even I knew that wasn't going to happen, not under these conditions. I've been in whiteouts that were easier to navigate. So, I took my bearings and tried to retrace my steps until I found something familiar... Then, behold, as I was backtracking I spied something familiar. My heart leaped. It was out of place, but I didn't care anymore. There it was - sitting there like gold in a dense jungle. I reached for it. I smiled, knowing it would give me comfort. Like finding an old friend in a new city, I found help. I stood there for the next twenty minutes reading the Editors picks in Backpacker magazine, not realizing that time spent being lost and time spent doing something you enjoy are two different things.
Satisfied, I made it home safe and sound, but having forgot to get eggs or lunchmeat or something. But that was ok. I made it back and that is what mattered. I think it was Sir Edmund Hillary that said it didn't count if you didn't make it back (or something like that). I had survived!
The best way to avoid getting lost is always to be "found" ... ie, know where you are at all times. Don't move a mile without knowing exactly where you are and what landmark (creek, hill) you will pass next. Cavers will tell you it pays to look behind you regularly. Coming back to a Y intersection and not knowing which leg you came down is a major cause of getting lost

Any Boy Scout Handbook will tell you what the 10 essetials are.
what are the ten essentials
Stay found.
Carry the ten essenitials.
Know how to use map and map tools(compass, GPSr).
1) Hit the panic button on your key fob.
2) Call SAR on your cell phone
3) Walk in an ever widening conical circle until you get tired, colapse and SAR finds you.
4) Never go into woods again.
So, Instead of the "Gong" I suggest the following sure fire method of "Getting Found." Always carry a pack of playing cards. When you're lost just stop and start playing solitare. As soon as you lay down a Red King, some one will come along and suggest you move the Black Queen on top of the Red King. If you try this at home, it'll work every time.
never hike anywhere with out a megaphone or a gong and a pack full of flares or fireworks .I like the gong, much more zen.
-1. Be prepared for spending the night (or two or three...)anytime you venture off the road. (98.6 and H2O. You won't starve...you'll just get hungry...maintain 98.6 and H2O. Stay dry on the outside and wet on the inside.) 1. Be where you are. Are you safe? Then stay safe where you are and don't do something stupid. 2. Be calm...think...plan. 3. Stay visible...think about being seen. 4. Never, ever panic...panic=stupidity stupidity=death.
Forget all the theories. Down a creek /river...up a hill...lay in a field with your arms spread. Just think about how you got to where you are then plan...slowly...the next logical step. Don't move an inch until you have a plan. Rivers meander then drop suddenly off cliffs. Hills are often higher than they look. Some trails are game trails that end up in very nice high meadows and just end. There is no specific formula for getting unlost and found except clear logical thought without panic. Oh...and being prepared in advance.
"Start by following rivers downstream�stick to the bigger drainages." That might be fine in a suburban day-hike area, but in the mountains that river is almost certainly going to lead to impassable terrain. Ask James Kim.
Exceptions to the below � when you're so close to an urban or suburban area that the terrain has been "tamed".
With a few exceptions, this is disastrous advice. Streams carve channels, so the terrain immediately around them tends to be steeper and more hazardous. Streams promote vegetation, so the terrain will be tougher to travel, with many more opportunities to stumble and get injured. That same vegetation makes it harder for rescuers to spot you.
Better: follow the advice in the article, with the addition: if you can safely get to a place where you will be seen easily by an aerial search, go there and stay there.
Answers door, "You, again? I thought you were getting a gps."

Shortcuts to a Backyard Makeover
Gardening and decorating tips to transform your space.
Cover Bare Patches in Your Garden in an Instant
No matter how strategically you plan your garden, there's always that sad stretch of time when there isn't a blossom in sight. Here's what you do: When you're at the grocery store or the garden center, pick up four to six hanging plastic baskets of bright, noncascading perennials or annuals in full bloom (or buy one to two per 10 square feet of space). Daisies (shown here), scaevolas, and geraniums are hearty options that are widely available . Remove the hangers and nestle the flowers―baskets and all―among the foliage of plants not in bloom (the plastic containers are usually shallow enough to be hidden in leafy, mulched beds). The baskets can pinch-hit all season: Just move them around to fill in other barren patches as needed.

New boss for Winchester charity for the elderly
6:13pm Monday 28th April 2014 in Winchester
A WINCHESTER charity for the elderly has appointed a new chief executive.
Carole Sawyers has been appointed to the top post at Brendoncare, the Winchester based care charity for older people.
She will join the organisation in June from The Fremantle Trust, where she has been chief executive since 2002.
Ms Sawyers said: "I am passionate about the care of older people and I am really looking forward to joining Brendoncare and building on the organisation's vision of seeking alternative service models for care."
The current chief executive, Ron Staker, will hand over to Carole in June, following his decision to retire. He has been in post since 1992.
Under his leadership the charity has doubled its number of care centres and runs some 70 friendship clubs that tackle loneliness, attracting over 28,000 attendances each year.
Brendoncare celebrates its 30th anniversary this year and today operates 10 care centres.

Home - Women's History Posters
Lucy Picco-Simpson Posters
We have inherited a wonderful collection of posters which you can use in your curriculum work or outreach to K – 12 schools. Lots of them are already on a wall in our conference room. Here's the story behind them.
A woman named Lucy Picco-Simpson, who was born in 1940 and was a so-called "Second-Wave" feminist, started the Organization for Equal Education of the Sexes in the late 1970s or early 1980s to introduce more material by and about women into the country's K – 12 curriculum. (Its goal was like the goal of our Women in the Curriculum Program that was founded at about the same time but for the university level.) So Lucy published a newsletter, sent books out into schools, and worked to get articles into existing journals on the K – 12 curriculum.
One of her most enduring projects was to develop sets of posters, all 11" by 17", to foreground women and women's issues. Because these were to go into schools, each poster came with a couple of pages of explanatory text for the teacher using it. There are three sets of posters: one set is on women of achievement (mostly historical), another is on jobs nontraditional for women (at least in the 1980s), and the third is aimed at encouraging girls to stay in school, even if they become mothers or have handicaps. They are simple by today's standards (shades of black and one color on light-colored paper) but very powerful.
Although Lucy started her business with some friends in the New York City area, she came to Blue Hill, Maine in the summers and eventually moved there. We first met her in 1995 when a recurrence of cancer caused her to close her office in downtown Blue Hill and move the poster part of the business to her home in East Blue Hill. At that time she gave us lots of books for our library and some office materials. Very sadly, she died on March 1, 2006. After her death her husband contacted us to take over the part of the business remaining, the posters–all 61,000 of them! They were moved into a basement room in our building last summer, and we have been making efforts to get them out to schools and other kinds of educational institutions all over the country. In 2008 we took sets to the Berkshire Conference on the History of Women and the National Women's Studies Association Conference with order forms. At our last Maryann Hartman Awards Ceremony we presented the winner of the Young Women's Social Justice Award with an entire set to share with her school or other organization–or just to put up in her room.
Now we'd like to see how you can use them. Click here for an order form. You can order as many or as few as you can use. If you have contact with others who could use them, we welcome your outreach efforts. We can give them away, but we do ask you to think about making a donation to our program, if you can, to help us continue our outreach efforts. We also ask you to let us know how you use them. FMI call 581-1228.

Ledo Road, home to Wal-Mart
and other shopping centers, is getting busier.
"Ledo road is the
primary road and if you ride that road it is pass capacity, we've done a lot of
peace mill things to add extra lanes and make it work better, but frankly it is
completely over loaded" said Wes Smith, Assistant City Manager.
To get from Ledo to the
Albany Mall and busy Westover Boulevard, most drivers go down Nottingham
A new road could change that. The Westover connector
will start on Westover Blvd behind the mall, connecting to Ledo Road making
motorist travels a little bit safer.
"Well if anything it
will prevent more accidents, I'm all for extending the options for drivers, so
that there is not as much traffic congestion" said Sonya Hill, motorist.
Sonya Hill is used to
being caught up in the traffic.
"It can be at times
traffic backed up especially around 5 PM, 5:30 PM, it's really bad," said Hill.
With the new Gander Mountain
store open on Westover, and the holiday shopping season here, that traffic is
getting worse. When voters in our region defeated the T-SPLOST referendum last
year. It delayed the Westover project, but it is still in the pipeline.
"Well with the ease
of traffic and people more easily getting into the area I think it will greatly
enhance the opportunity at the mall, revenue, Gander Mountain, Wal-Mart, I
think all of the commercial activities can really benefit from the ease of
traffic movement," said Smith.
Lee County is moving ahead
with their part of the project. The road
connecting Ledo Road to Fussell Road could be finished next Spring.The Albany section, going under the
bypass, needs millions of dollars from the state. Right now, the state isn't even scheduled
to start working on the rights of way until 2018.

Obviously, we all have our own conditions for calling an event a great race; the recently concluded Giro d'Italia had all the trimmings to make one exceptional race. To be sure, Team Astana's Alberto Contador took the top overall honors, but his fellow competitors forced the outcome to be decided on the final day of the 21-day grand tour.
Lance Armstrong won seven Tours de France, but which one was his "best" victory? Was it the times where the Texas Tornado appeared unbeatable and seemed to just be toying with his rivals? For me it was 2003 when he almost got dropped on Alpe d'Huez, lost to Ullrich in the first time trial and then crashed on Luz Ardiden. Lance looked totally vulnerable and it came down to the final time trial to settle the score.
For me, it is great competition which makes a memorable race. This year at the Giro, going into the final mountain stage, three day before the end of the race, the top three competitors were separated by only 21 seconds. And, all three were bonafide contenders. But, more importantly, all three had looked vulnerable at one time or another.
Leader Alberto Contador had been unable to respond to late stage attacks on both the Alpe de Pampeago and the Marmolada. But, as a true champion does, he didn't just sit up, he rode his own pace and limited his losses. Only four seconds back, Saunier Duval's Ricardo Ricco, lost over two minutes to Contador in the first time trial. He clearly had to make up that deficit in the mountains and his relentless attacks were successful in pegging back critical seconds. Third place Danilo DiLuca, the 2007 Giro champion, had been riding quietly in the lead group, but had not shown any traces of last year's form. His attack on the second-to-last day in the mountains almost put him in the maglia rosa, the pink leader's jersey.
In the end, Contador's consistency in the mountains and his superior time trialing skills neutralized Ricco while DiLuca's audacious attack on the second-to-last mountain stage proved to be too much too soon and he was never able to recover for the final weekend of racing.
Which brings us to the upcoming Tour de France. While Cadel Evans may be the odds-on favorite, his recent knee troubles have limited his pre-Tour training program. Chris Horner likes two-time Vuelta a Espana winner Dennis Menchov. Somewhere lurking in the mountains is Alejandro Valverde. Suffice it to say, there really is no clear favorite and all the top contenders have shown signs of vulnerability in the Tour in the past. Of course, that means it's going to be a great race.

In April of 2008 four enthusiastic golfers travelled to the "Mecca" of golf in North America. Augusta National Golf Course in Augusta, Georgia. They watched their favourite golfers on the first day of practice at the 2008 Masters golf tournament. This book captures, in pictures, that special day.
The second half of the book highlights on film the four guys hitting the courses in St. Augustine, Florida. Everyone had a great time, and it is hoped that this book can capture some of the memories experienced.

At the moment I live in Tassie as you may all be aware Hobart is a pretty small city and I already feel that I've outgrown it not only in the seduction world but many other parts. I feel I'm restricted by living here, so I'm trying to find out the best area or state in Aus that has good clubs is target rich with high quality woman. I figure that somewhere on the Gold coast may be one of a few good spots. I have 3 qualifications so getting a job shouldn't be terribly hard. Another issue which perhaps deserves its own thread is a friend that I work with has suggested that she also wants to move interstate but doesn't want to move over alone. That's got me thinking along the lines of is this perhaps an opportunity for me to set my self up to perhaps share a house with her and then before I even get there I've got someone that is able to come out with me an act as a pre-selection switch before I have even meet anyone over there! Thoughts?

We see, ¿what is The God delusion? In very simple words, is a book written by an atheist in defense of the atheism, against the religions and the wrongs to them associates. Neither more neither less, thus of simple. How develops Dawkins such plan of "conviction" is one of the main attractions of the book. It is worthwhile to read it, to note it and to reread it, because its arguments are direct, clear and, above all, they incite to exercise the most basic one of the human capacities: the rational thought. ¿Why do I consider that this book is worthwhile to be read and analyzed with calm? Simply, because tries THE THEME, thus, writing with the largest capital letters than one can be imagined. During all the history of the humanity the idea of God and of their associated structure, the religion, they have accompanied our steps, generally in a quite harmful way. There is not moment of ours passed in which THE THEME have not been present, of an or another way. Lament deeply that still continue being thus in many places.Dawkins dissects with care the atheistic, agnostic, theistic, pantheistic, and deistic cone concepts meaning. It is somewhat basic to understand THE THEME. It obtains it to the perfection for, subsequently, to initiate its attack, an offensive that, if is taken without any type of initial prejudice is, simply, devastating. The author affirms without delay that the theology, the religion, the idea of God (is) and every belief of similar cut, léase the prayer or the belief in miracles, only they are not somewhat childlike but is a matter of truly harmful matters. Thus of hard and of simple, besides it argued with clarity and seriousness. It reviews the philosophical theological arguments that classically they have been presented like "tests" of the existence of God and, subsequently, dynamite with logic and without device of any type all they. Only therefore deserves to be read. Before continuing, I will define my position on THE THEME, of simple and also direct form. I consider atheist, in the classical sense of the word. I believe in nothing of what have not constancy "physical", this is, that the logic and the reason indicate me, or not, that can be possible. Now well, always I leave of the idea that not even we have begun to scratch the surface of the knowledge of the nature, that a gigantic stretch remains us before understanding really and with sufficient detail many aspects of the physical laws. To be more direct: I think that the science still is in a very initial phase of its road and that we will arrive, in a distant future, to understand and to control matters that today not even are imaginable. Is, exactly, when advances the science, the moment in which the religion goes back. It be told what be told, this is thus, can be verified reviewing the human history. What previously was unique field of play of the religion and of the philosophy, goes reducing before the advance of the rational mind. Believing, to have faith, supposes to be convinced fully in fact or ideas of the ones that itself not knowledge can consider rational river bed. I have there the problem, because that is dangerous. It is used to presenting often that there should be separation between the science and the religion, something as well as an agreement "cordial", you dedicate you to decubrir the "mechanisms" and I to the "why". This it is a species of trap that the religion creates for succumb not to the advance of the rational knowledge and thus to maintain certain stable plot of imaginary mysticism that cause its building stay standing. What does that a religion be "better" that another? Why the "mine" it is better than that of the "neighboring" who, at the same time, affirms without doubt that his is "better" that the mine, the unique one "true"? A play of children seems and, in reality, is thus of absurd. No myth or sacred history in which the religions are based, current or passed, bears a minimum of rational analysis and, nevertheless, right now is killed in name of such beliefs. Themselves murderous and low moral behaviors are imposed cruel griefs that lack minimum felt. It is there where is born the true one badly of the religions, in its tendency to IMPOSE on the other its sense of the ethics, moral and behavior. I say this since my deeper conviction, in reality my only conviction, that comes to say: It thinks and do absolutely what want, provided that interfere not negatively in which they think or they do the others. I do not intend that nobody to stop believing, whether in its God or in the ratoncito Pérez, what do not I bear is that propaganda be done, that intend to IMPOSE the own ways to third parties, is a matter of the worst one of the crimes. It more curious, and flagrant, it is that, for example, the way to be behaved and the ethics inherent in many religions, is based on the fear to the ira of God. Thus, one "it owes" to be behaved "well", that is to say, according

'Porn King' Ron Jeremy To Visit Local Church
The Rock Church Pastor Miles McPherson Says Jeremy Will Be At All Services Sunday
The pastor of a popular local church spoke with 10News on Wednesday about why he is welcoming self-proclaimed "Porn King" Ron Jeremy to this weekend's services.
» Sign Up For Breaking News Alerts» Like Us On Facebook» Follow Us On TwitterJeremy is a legend in the world of pornography. He made a name for himself in the 1970s making adult films and has now been in more than 2,000 of them.Miles McPherson, the pastor of The Rock Church, said Jeremy will be a guest at five services on Sunday.Every week, about 12,000 people fill the pews of the church to hear McPherson's message. Now, McPherson hopes his followers will open their hearts and minds for this unlikely church guest, who he believes is perfect."We started a series called 'Exposed' about five weeks ago talking about what is exposed in our heart when we judge people," he said.The professional football player turned pastor says most of society would turn their backs on people like Jeremy."He's not a Christian, he's living a sinful life in people's eyes and his lifestyle is contrary to the Bible but still, we're obligated to love him," said McPherson.The words "Jesus Loves Porn Stars" is splashed on a colorful promotional poster for Sunday's unusual guest. McPherson hopes the sermon will encourage people to look at themselves in the mirror."One out of every two guys watch pornography and one out of every six women so there's pornography in church every week, we just don't talk about it," he said.This will be Jeremy's second visit to The Rock church. In 2010, he debated the virtues of his livelihood with XXXChurch pastor Craig Gross. McPherson said not everyone is on board with his return."Oh, people think it's not appropriate," he said. "They don't think they can learn anything from him being there."McPherson hopes to prove there is something to learn.For more details on Jeremy's visit, click here.

The celebration begins on Monday and since agriculture is Nebraska's largest industry, state officials made an announcement that will help educate consumers on farming and ranching.
With agriculture week just a few days away, Gov. Dave Heineman is unveiling a free magazine that will come out each year to mark the celebration.
This year, "Nebraska Agriculture and You" features a family from Albion.
"We know consumers want to know how their food is grown, how everything we do happens, how we raise our livestock...," Hilary Maricle said.
The magazine is published by the Nebraska Department of Agriculture.
Director Greg Ibach hopes it will help consumers who don't have direct ties to farming or ranching better understand food production.
He says today's agriculture is a combination of food, fuel and fiber, and this magazine will show how they all work together.
"The magazine is designed to make people understand a little bit more about the relationships each of these segments has with production agriculture as well as give them a grasp of how critical Nebraska agriculture is to our economy," Ibach said.
Celebrations for ag–week will take place statewide. Next Tuesday, the governor and state agriculture leaders will be in three different locations including Tecumseh, Papillion and Wayne. They'll discuss issues like livestock development, career opportunities and agriculture's role in our economy.
"This country has gone through some very tough times and we saw our top industry help this state to survive cause it was thriving and a lot of people, almost everybody in this state should be very thankful for what agriculture does for this state and the contribution it makes," Lt. Gov. Lavon Heidemann said.
The public will be able to find the new magazines around the state in libraries and office lobbies of doctors, dentists and hair salons in the next couple of weeks.

text: A multi-day adventure in an old beloved Land Rover Defender, tracing the old original Route 66 from its easternmost end in downtown Chicago to the 11th Street Bridge in Tulsa. It's a friendly but very quiet road, with parts almost completely forgotten as it's been rerouted multiple times over the years. A good mix of history and kitsch.

Students at ASU are getting ready to go back to class next week. And for hundreds of students, their new digs won't be some cramped dorm room. They're living large in a brand new apartment complex right off campus.
This is a lot different than my college living situation. The new complex definitely is more like a resort. It has a lot of high-tech amenities -- and wait until you see the pool.
The District on Apache is the latest apartment complex to open near ASU's main campus in Tempe. Residents start moving in Friday, and leasing manager Caitlin Bayley says the apartments are almost all spoken for.
"It's you know brand new, 900 beds across the street from ASU's campus, walking distance. No one has seen anything like this before."
The 279 units are fully furnished and feature high end finishes like granite counter tops and stainless steel appliances.
But this is no doubt the main draw -- a huge lazy river pool. The only one of its kind at an apartment complex in Arizona.
The idea of floating on an inner-tube during these hot summer days was enough to get ASU senior Gerld Carter to make the move.
"This is just such a unique pool, very different from anything I've ever seen before. So I definitely wanted to be a resident here and be able to experience that in my last year of college," says Carter.
And while they're floating on the lazy river, people living here at the District can also watch TV or movies on this giant outdoor TV screen.
There's also a two-story gym, .a shuffle board table in the recreation room, and a virtual golf course where you can practice your swing. Gerld says it feels more like a resort than an apartment complex.
"It's going to be tough to leave this and go to class every day, but I'll find a way. It's always waiting when I come home."
Of course it's not all fun and games, so there are also several study rooms and conference rooms for students looking for a quiet place to study away from that pool.

This past week our good friend Bill Fowler, who is the head of the Sumiton Area Veterans Board, asked if we'd consider playing for a Flag Retirement Ceremony.
This ceremony is the proper way to honorably dispose of an American flag that is worn or tattered. We'd never attended one of the ceremonies, so we agreed. I served in the Army, and Jilda currently works with men and women in the military returning from war zones, so we like doing almost anything the veterans ask us to do if we can.
The Honor Guard was there. This is a group of veterans who perform at military funerals and military functions around Walker County
One of the members of the Guard is 85 years old. He served in WWII, Korea, and Vietnam. He has more ribbons on his chest than you'd see in an Easter Parade. The ceremony began with a word of prayer, the National Anthem and the Pledge of Allegiance to the flag. Afterwards, Bill read a short poem written from the perspective of the flag. It's a touching piece, and he choked with emotion toward the end of the poem, which made me choke up too.
Jilda and I played a few songs as they readied the fire. It wasn't a large crowd, but it was a respectful one.
Boy Scout Troop 120 carried out the ceremony, which involves cutting away the blue field on which the stars are embroidered, and then cutting off each stripe of the flag, one by one.
The ceremony was held at the Sumiton Community Center at sunset. The crowd fell silent as the scouts went about their work. At one point I looked up into the sky and watched an airplane glide westward across the sky leaving a golden thread behind.
After the flag was cut into pieces, each boy approached the fire with a single strip of Old Glory, dropped it on the fire, then they stepped back and saluted.
When all the pieces of the flag had burned, the crowd again recited the "Pledge" to the burning flag. Afterward, the Honor Guard bugler played Taps. That music is one of the saddest pieces of music I've ever heard. Again, my eyes got misty.
I remember my father-in-law Sharky Phillips would get his hackles up in a hurry if he saw someone mishandling the flag. I've seen him, on more than one occasion, explain that you should never fly a flag at night unless there was a spotlight on it. And it should NEVER touch the ground.
Some people might believe that honoring our flag is for old soldiers — a tradition from the past that's outdated. Those people have the freedom to think and say that if they like because "old soldiers" throughout American history have shed their blood, sweat and tears to make it possible.
I'd like to thank my friend Bill Fowler for asking us to play. Jilda and I both considered it an honor to be a part of that ceremony.

This is a live discussion of te events of the 2014 NHL trade deadline day. Check in here to converse with other Lightning fans about league movement. Stay up to the minute with Twitter reporting too!
The Bolts partner up with TV pitchman Anthony Sullivan with their latest ticket package, with opinions on the package and commercial varying from positive to stereotypical.
This is more insider stuff than anything else, but it's worth mentioning. Tom Gulitti posted at Fire & Ice why the NJ PHWA has withdrew their votes for the NHL awards. This is because the Islanders pulled Chris Botta's credentials during the season without any explanation from either the team, the NHL, or the PHWA, who did nothing about this at the national level. As Gulitti explains, it's a horrible precedent and could lead to other teams doing so. Hopefully, the PHWA at least gets the message. Good on the NJ, NY, and Long Island chapters to stand up for themselves.
Not that Botta is pure in this episode, but this move is wrong for the Islanders and their fans.
You'll never believe what the story of the day is. Between an 11-game winless streak, a coaching change, major injuries and inconsistent young players, the Islanders have a lot of on-ice issues...
AOL FanHouse writer Chris Botta caught up with former Bruins prospect Zach McKelvie and his twin brother, Chris McKelvie. Zach, a West Point graduate, has put his NHL dreams on hold to serve his country in the Army after the Army put the brakes on his hockey career. While Zach is taking care of his military obligations, Chris is working on a hockey career of his own with the New York Rangers organization.
Chris Botta reported Wednesday Night that Steve Yzerman is still very much a candidate in Tampa for the role of GM. We touch on the report, the rumors that had listed the contrary, as well as the...
"The first thing the Lightning tell guys in for interviews isn't a question, but a demand. They say, 'Do not speak to the press or anyone else.' What's implied is that if your name gets out in the media, you may not be a candidate for long."An Unnamed League Source quoted by Chris Botta for NHL FanHouse
Sources tell NHL Fanhouse blogger Chris Botta that the Lightning GM job is Yzerman's if he wants it.

Oyster Bay Town officials are mulling an override of the state's 2 percent property tax cap for the second consecutive fiscal year. On Aug. 12, the town held a hearing to approve local legislation, giving the Town Council authority to pierce the cap.
However, according to Marta Kane, a spokesperson with the Town of Oyster Bay, Supervisor John Venditto and the members of the Oyster Bay Town Council are not certain if they will entertain a repeat of last year, when the board adopted a $277 million budget, increasing the tax levy by $15,964,647 — or 8.8 percent.

Members and guests of North Shore Synagogue's Brotherhood BBQ and Erev Shabbat Service enjoyed a wonderful summer's evening in early July with a classic BBQ and services led by Brotherhood, with help from Rabbi Jaimee Shalhevet and Cantor Rich Pilatsky.
"This is a wonderful way to connect with other members of Brotherhood, which focuses on building camaraderie among our members, and instilling a strong sense of community away from the hectic pressures of our day-to-day lives," said Brotherhood co-president Jeffrey Levine.

NC State's representatives made some good impressions during the first day of practice.
Like all of Wisconsin's opponents so far this season, Indiana folded under the pressure of having too many things to think about. They never had a prayer on this one:
Play-action helped Russell Wilson's efficiency a lot last year; it's a small sample but I'd imagine this is indicative of a general trend across college football.
-- Tom O'Brien says the wide receivers have been playing better over the last week: "I think for a while they were up and down as we went through this thing," O'Brien stated. "I think they've...
There is good news for Mike Glennon, and it's this: the standard is not as high as he thinks it is. The story of the 2010 NC State offense was promise unrealized; maybe it was to do with Russell...
-- I don't know what it is about the flip from July to August, but it immediately makes me feel like we're ten times closer to football season. After this month comes the month that has football in...
Tuesday news and notes.
Russell Wilson may well have a rough time at Wisconsin, but this is not the way to go about arguing that point.
Says in the article that Bielema had to ask the NCAA if he could visit Russell's mom in Virginia since she could not travel, and the NCAA denied that request. Isn't that like a regular in-home visit? Why is that up to the NCAA now?

this is very good, only sad is price got increased(gaining like Gold price). it has Toshiba HDD inside, please use only cable that is shipped with this drive, the micro usb connector end of cable is bit lengthy to cover the thickness of casing metal. if you use other general cable, the length of standard micro usb connector will become short due to casing metal thickness, thus Drive fails to connect.
I am using this from past 1 year, it has not given any sort of troubles. The best part is its writing speed(24mbps). It is rugged also , there are incidents where I have dropped it but still it is working nice.
firstly i want to tell about price: i have bought it one year back with only 1800 rupees. now this is 3300. almost all hard disks have been raised suddenly 3 months back unexpectedly.
it supports usb2.0 no need any external power
writing speed is 24mbps amazing speed, (sandisk 4gb pen drive writing speed is 4mbps only)
I've been using this for over 6 months now. And I bought it when the price was lower than it is now. The write speed is pretty amazing. The looks, are well, quite decent, not very attractive. Has a very rough look to it, but the system overall is very very good, and I am pretty satisfied by it's performance!
They don't have any service centers in India.I bought 320 gb one and it stopped working after a month.So take my advise and never buy this product.If any one buys this they will surely regret.

Millions across the country are in line hoping a small investment will pay off.
The Powerball game hit a record-high $600 million dollar jackpot on Friday, making it the world's second largest lottery prize.
On top of that, Friday night is the first Mega Millions drawing in Florida.
So with hundreds of millions of dollars on the line, what to do with all that cash?
If you are the sole winner of the Powerball jackpot, you could win an estimated prize of $600 million, paid over 30 years, or take a cash payout of $376 million.
A Mega Millions winner could receive $190 million over 26 years, or take a lump sum of $140 million.
The reason for lump sums?
A Florida lottery spokesperson explained the lump sum is the cash the lottery has on hand.
For example, the official said for the $190 million Mega Millions jackpot, the Florida Lottery only has $140 million of cash on hand.
So if you choose to get your prize as payments over the next 26 years, the Florida Lottery would invest that $140 million in a federal bond, and over time, give you the full $190 million prize.
If you choose to get the lump sum, then the Florida Lottery would give you the $140 million they have on hand, and you can do what you want with it.
So if Lady Luck ends up being on your side this weekend, you'll have to find a place to store that cash.
Sarasota financial planner Scott Barcomb said, "These are nice difficult decisions to have."
Barcomb runs Barcomb & Associates, LLC. He says an instant winner should first splurge a little.
Barcomb says, "If you get a big chunk of money, the natural inclination is you're gonna go out and spend a bunch and I think you should indulge that to a certain amount but you set a limit on that."
Of course, you know you have to pay some fees.
Florida Lottery officials say 25% of your winnings are paid in federal taxes. You also have to list your winnings as income on your W-2 form.
So after all that, Barcomb suggests you invest in a diverse portfolio and live off the interest.
He also advises the winner to choose the lump sum.
Barcomb says, "If you crunch the numbers, the reason why the vast majority of people do take the lump sum is because if you invest it wisely and you're prudent with it, in the long run, it's gonna work out much better for a financial standpoint, you're gonna wind up getting a lot more money if you take a lump sum."
But before you make these decisions, you have to win. In Florida, you are required to reveal your identity if you win.
It could be a press conference, or it could be your name and city on a press release, but either way, your name will get out there.
The Mega Millions drawing is Friday night, and the Powerball drawing is Saturday.
Be sure to watch News Channel 8 at 11 to get the winning numbers!

Congratulations on earning 1.76 MM points, that's dedication. Lets be buddies. Thanks. shep
Are you joking or are you really unaware about the $250 gas card drawing here every week?
Hi. I'm curious, with the massive amount of points you've accumulated, have you ever won a gas card drawing here?
Saw some of your comments on a buddy site
I would like to be your buddy
Yes Bill it changed back to a Getty!
Getty reOpened two weeks ago! Since the Shell at the TSP exit is still fenced in and rebuilding.Something may be going on at the former CITGO across 55!
Hey Bill! Did you see pktessler is still posting prices for the Getty in Lagrangeville that's been shut down for around 2 years now? That would be over a years after you pointed it out to him. Wonder what game he's playing
Bill there were cars at the pumps so I assume yes. Did I pull in and get gas no.
The article is and was bogus.I know not the mayor's mental status, however, tt is the author and publisher of the article, "Is New York's Mayor Bloomberg clueless or criminally indifferent?" that is clueless. We were all informed long ago that the marathon was cancelled and I am sure that the resources have long since been redistributed to where they were needed.

3.76/5 rDev +3%
Poured from the bottle a deep, clear gold color with two fingers of rich white head.
Aroma of yeast, pear and mango.
The taste was ripe pear, mango, yeast, and fruit cocktail syrup.
Medium bodied and syrupy with a moderate carbonation.
Not bad, but a bit on the sweet and syrupy side.

A: A hazy medium amber colored ale with almost no head.
S: A fruity Brett aroma bring notes of tropical and light colored fruit like pineapples, apricot, pears and mango. A mild Pilsner malt sweetness and moderate hops aroma.
T: Tart and fruit flavors dominate followed by a medium bitterness then a light malt sweetness. Fruit flavors like the aroma include pineapple, apricot and mango with a bit of pear. There is a medium-light hops bitterness that combines with a moderate tartness to bring the balance somewhat bitter against the light sweetness. The finish is pretty dry with a light apricot fruity aftertaste.
M: A medium-light bodied beer with a strong level of carbonation.
O: A very good ale that reminds me of a straight lambic with the only fruit character coming form the yeast. The aroma is good but it doesn't telegraph the very good flavors waiting ahead.

Wild at Heart is a very tasty, very drinkable wild ale. THe Brett yeast does wonders with the flavors - lots of ripe mango and pineapple. I never heard of the hops they used, but there are a nice addition. THis is very drinkable and highly recommended. I have read reviews that state some were disappointed that the beer was not tart and sour enough.... for my palate, it is right on!

Poured from a 750 ml corked bottle into a Duvel tulip glass.
Appearance: Pours a slightly hazy copper golden orange with a lot of bubbles. Huge four finger white head which fades into a thin creamy layer. Leaves a decent amount of lacing around the glass.
Smell: A nicely juicy, zesty, and yeasty aroma with a big mix of citrus fruit esters. Upfront scent of Belgian yeast with some funk and Brett yeast hints. Fruity scent of tart cherry, green apple, pear, and banana. Big aroma of citrus fruits with hints of orange, mango, pineapple, lemon zest, passion fruit, melon, peach, lime, and slight grapefruit. Some candied sugar. Backing presence of pale malt with hints of grains, straw, and cracker. Subtle earthy hop presence. A very interesting and good aroma.
Taste: Like it smells, a juicy, yeasty, and mildly tart taste with a big mix of citrus fruit esters. Belgian yeast with some funk, spice, and wild Brett yeast. Mildly tart taste of cherry. Fruit notes of green apple, banana, and pear. Big presence of tropical citrus fruits with notes of mango, pineapple, orange, lemon zest, peach, passion fruit, lime, melon, and grapefruit. Citrus hops are fairly bitter. Soft bready backing of pale malt with notes of cracker, grains, and straw. Light background presence of earthy hops. Some sweet notes of Belgian candied sugar as well. A pretty good and interesting taste.
Mouthfeel: Medium bodied with a fairly high level of carbonation. Juicy, creamy, spritzy, and pretty smooth. Fairly drying. Alcohol is hidden well.
Overall: A pretty interesting and tasty twist on a Wild Ale. Big juicy citrus presence with a subdued sourness. Odd but it tastes pretty good.

I recently drank this from a
Tulip glass poured out of a 22 oz bomber bottle. I noticed a Large 2 finger head that quickly dissipated with little to no lacing as I drank. There was a sulphourous aroma and a pale golden color. As for the flavor, I experienced a bready malt forefront with some pleasant lemony flavors. It was effervescent and had medium carbonation with a bitter and slightly sour finish. I liked it and think it would be a good introductory beer to the world of sours, however I wished for a more tart flavor.

750ml corked and caged bottle poured into a snifter. Bottled on 08/27/13.
A: Hazy golden amber with a thin white head. Leaves spots of lacing on the glass. A bit too opaque to see much visible carbonation.
S: Bit of fruitiness and yeastiness. Some Belgian funk to it as well as a malt sweetness. Hits of hops in the background and a touch of spiciness.
T: Reminds me of a light belgian double as it has a similar fruit profile. Raisin and grape are pronounced. Just a touch of farmhouse from the Brett and no developed sour yet.
M: Medium body with lots of carbonation. Crisp and dry finish. Almost a champagne like feel.
Overall it is a very drinkable mild belgian ale with a nice fruit aspect. Would need a few more years to develop the tartness I like in my Brett beers. Agree with others that it comes off saison like.

3.04/5 rDev -16.7%
Cloudied honey with a wonderful tight two inch foamy formation. Could of exacerbated more carbonation.
Smells like beer. As an advertised wild ale I was expecting something....say....more bretty and wild, sour and tart....but no. I get more a sweet maltness as a corn adjunct or a modified corn syrup. Really not appealing.
Syrupy sweet upfront and becomes more "sourish" in the back. Reminds me Kirin beer. Rice and/or corn sweetness. Alcohol presence.
Mouthfeel is heavy and creamy. Finishes dry and carbonation is sufficient.
Really this is ok. A rare pleasant Sunday afternoon and I'm not enjoying this. Not going to drain pour it but gotta move on. Life is too short to drink what you ain't liking. Where's the American wild ale in this??? All in all my wife scarfed it up and would give this a 4 overall, she dug it so that has to count for something.

Pours a slightly hazy golden color with a moderate sized pure white head. The head settled into a thick ring.
The aroma is sweet with a slight yeast spice. Pale malt sweetness with perhaps some candi sugar and a light hint of clove from the yeast. This is also a very subtle tart note. The aroma is nice but not very strong.
The taste is a mix of sweet and tart. Quite fruity with green apple, lemon and some light tropical fruit notes. Almost a champagne fruitness. There is a slightly tart note from the brett but not very strong. Some pepper. Some bitterness in the end from the hops, mainly grassy.
The feel is light with very airy carbonation, burns just a little. Sweet and crisp on the palate but does have a bitter offset in the finish from the hops. Slightly dry. Not very tart.
A nice beer but not quite what I expected from a brett added beer. Its not very tart. Its dry and drinks very well, good palate cleanser.

Holy lord what a disappointment. I've been sitting on this bottle for almost a year, in proper conditions, usually the perfect timeframe for a beer of this type. Instead, I get a bready, slightly metallic, sweet saison-esque beer with next to no brett character. 100% Brett-fermented? I'm blown away by how bland and un-brett-like it is. Did this get pasturized? Where is the funk? Why hasn't it dried out? Why isn't it more carbed? To the guy below advocated to BA to give this beer a break, implying that the subpar ratings are due to the originating brewery being Ommegang than they are due to the beer itself being at fault, I advocate you lose the blinders and get with the program, your review reads almost word-for-word like the description on the bottle, which this beer blatantly fails to fulfill. Not a trace of sour. A zero on the tart scale, despite aging as the bottle requests to bring more acidity to the party. Aside from a passable appearance, this beer is a shell of what it is supposed to be, making it literally hard to swallow.

Poured from corked & caged 750 mL bottle into a Brewers Art goblet. Moderate hand. No identifiable dating on the bottle, but is the 2013 vintage.
A: Slight hazy, golden yellow with orange tint. Very nice body on this one. 1/2 finger clean, soapy white head that rapidly fizzles to a film. No lacing to speak of.
S: Citric/lactic acid tartness, Belgian yeast. Lemon. Orange. Light funk. Tropical fruit. Pale malt notes with grass, cracker. Very nice.
T: Lactic/citric acid sour and yeast-driven spicy start with a prompt appearance of noble-type hop bitterness. Dry finish with a light lingering tartness. Citrus, especially lemon. Traces of vanilla and indistinct spice. Some grape and slight raisin as it warms. Slight alcohol - low for 8% ABV. Good stuff.
M: Moderate to high carbonation with light body. Mild prickliness, but overall the feel suits the flavor profile. Drinks well.
O: Tasty brew. Most comparable to a Belgian pale with the sourness ratched up a notch. I would have been ok with a stronger brett/sour element, but as is, this is quite good. I'll sit on my second bottle and see how some time treats it...
