Agri-Biz & Commodities
Spot rubber prices decline
Kottayam , Aug 29
Rubber declined on fresh selling from dealers and growers on Tuesday. Domestic prices recorded moderate losses amidst buyer resistance as TOCOM lost heavily on long liquidation inspired from the bear hammering in gold and oil counters coupled with a steep decline in Singapore rubber market. All major overseas indices finished lower on Tuesday
RSS 4 closed at Rs 88 a kg against Rs 89 a kg at Kottayam and Kochi. Certain major manufacturers bought sheet rubber at quoted level but they preferred to keep a low profile expecting further slip in prices.
Futures weak
The rubber futures followed suit on NMCE with a slight improvement in volumes. The September contract was quoted at Rs 88.50 (Rs 89.42), October at Rs 85.65 (Rs 86.36), November at Rs 85.85 (Rs 85.85) and December contract at Rs 86.05 (Rs 86.21) per kg for RSS 4.
Prices (Rs a kg) were: RSS-4: Rs 88 (Rs 89.50); RSS-5: Rs 86 (Rs 87); ungraded: Rs 83 (Rs 84); ISNR 20: Rs 85 (Rs 87) and Latex 60 per cent: Rs 70.50 (Rs 72.09).

Hello, I've just joined this website and watch The Doctors often....Please let me know if you find the information abouts Boots #7. I've been looking for an hour...and have givenup....Take care
I, too, am searching for the offer from BOOTS. Their answer is to get to the video box of that day's show, which is 5-16-11, and you will see SHOW SYNOPSIS and go to it. Well, it won't go to it because it stays on the thing above it that never stops trying to load a video. I have been trying for over an hour and am completely stressed out. This web site is making me too nervous and I think I am just going to give up on BOOTS. Who needs all that junk to put on their skin anyway!
Hi, the coupon posted expired in January.
I heard its good to start young using anti-aging products. I'm 26 years old should I start using this product? If so, which one. I have fair, oily to normal, and sensitive skin. What's recommended?
I am also interested in the Boots No. 7 promo offer but can not find it on your website.
Just looked following your guide and can't find anything
Here is the direct link to the video and the coupon link is on this page.
Video: http://www.thedoctorstv.com/main/content/BOOTS
Yes I also cannot find the special offer for the boots no.7!!!!
Looking for the Boots No. 7 offer also - any suggestions where to look?
Thanks in advance - Have a great day!
I can't find the area to enter my "word" for the Boots7 sweepstakes.
Just go to the link posted by TheDoctorsBoard1 they are right there good till 11/13/13. Pretty simple! http://www.thedoctorstv.com/main/content/BOOTS

'Most boring 2014 calendar' sells its first copy
The man behind the most boring calendar of the year has sold his first copy on Daybreak.
Despite the iconic subject matter, "The Fast Disappearing Red Telephone Boxes of Wales 2014" was not selling like hot cakes, according to its publisher Kevin Beresford.
However, Welsh presenter Aled Jones snapped up a copy of the 2014 calendar, saying he knew someone who would "love" the calendar for Christmas - before promptly giving it to his co-presenter Lorraine Kelly.
The 61-year-old started photographing mundane scenery after becoming fed up with the countless celebrity calendars filling the shop every year.
"I don't tend do One Direction calendars. I do no direction calendars!" Kevin quipped.
He admitted he was "devastated" that he had yet to sell a single copy and had tried to work out the cause of calendar's failure:
– Calendar publisher Kevin Beresford
I was sitting in my front room on Sunday and I have a pile in my front room. I thought, I haven't sold one. I try to be Devil's advocate and thought, well, why haven't I? Is it too mundane? Too humdrum? Too dull?
His previous works include "Best of British Roundabouts" and "Her Majesty's Prisons", both of which were bestsellers.
"Best of British Roundabouts" proved so successful it spawned a sequel – "Roundabouts of the World".
Mr Beresford explained: "I rely on roundabout disciples all around the world. I get emails all the time from people sending me their favourite one way gyratory!"Inspiration for mundane photos came in similarly mediocre settings. He admitted to having ideas when "sitting in the bath with a glass of wine" or when down the pub with friends.

September 2012 issue | Center awarded for efforts to introduce students to engineering, technology
Subscribe Unsubscribe
From a UNT News Service press release
Students working in lab at a NSF I/UCRC site.
The Net-Centric Software and Systems Industry/University Cooperative Research Center, a research center based at UNT, was recently selected as the 2012 Tech Titan of the Future at the university-level by the Metroplex Technology Business Council.
The award recognizes higher education institutions in the Dallas-Fort Worth region that encourage and support students in choosing engineering and technology-related disciplines as a preferred path.
"All the research performed by the center is industry driven. This motivates students participating in the research projects because they realize that what they are doing is practical and has relevance," says Krishna Kavi, professor of computer science and engineering and director of the Net-Centric Software and Systems I/UCRC. "In most cases, students find internships and employment with the member companies."
A joint venture between academic, government and commercial institutions, the Net-Centric Software and Systems I/UCRC focuses on fundamental research needed for the development and deployment of software and applications into cloud and net-centric environments -- software and information that is available over a network or in a central location rather than on individual computers.
The center, which is based in UNT's College of Engineering, was established by the National Science Foundation in 2009. The center also includes Arizona State University, the University of Texas at Dallas, Missouri University of Science and Technology, Southern Methodist University, and more than 20 industry partners.
Kavi accepted UNT's award in August at the Tech Titans Gala. The Tech Titans Awards were launched in 2001 to recognize outstanding technology companies and individuals in the North Texas region who have made contributions during the past year locally, as well as to the technology industry overall. UNT's summer Robocamp for Girls program won the 2010 Tech Titan of the Future award at the university-level.

Space Ship One (SS1)

Famed aircraft designer Burt Rutan's firm Scaled Composites plans to fly the SpaceShipOne rocket plane to an altitude of 100 kilometers, or 62 miles -- 12 miles beyond the point NASA and the Air Force award astronaut wings for space travel.
Famed aircraft designer Burt Rutan's firm Scaled Composites plans to fly the SpaceShipOne rocket plane to an altitude of 100 kilometers, or 62 miles -- 12 miles beyond the point NASA and the Air Force award astronaut wings for space travel.
SpaceShipOne will be carried aloft under a mother ship called the White Knight, also a Rutan design.
The two aircraft are expected to circle for almost an hour to climb to the launch altitude of about 47,000 feet.
After SpaceShipOne is released by the White Knight, the pilot -- whose name has not been disclosed from among the three Scaled Composites pilots who have flown it on test flights -- will fire the rocket engine. The exhaust flame should be visible to spectators for about 80 seconds.
Once the rocket engine shuts down, the pilot will begin experiencing weightlessness. The rocket plane will continue upward to the 100-kilometer height and then begin its descent. The spacecraft will spend about three minutes in space.
MOJAVE, Calif. -- An ungainly-looking rocket plane punched through the Earth's atmosphere and then glided home to a desert landing Monday in history's first privately financed manned spaceflight -- a voyage that could hasten the day when the final frontier is opened up to paying customers.
Pilot Mike Melvill took SpaceShipOne 62.2 miles above Earth, just a little more than 400 feet above the distance considered to be the boundary of space. The flight lasted just 90 minutes.
The spaceship was carried aloft under the belly of a carrier jet. The jet then released the spaceship, and its rocket engine ignited, sending it hurtling toward space at nearly three times the speed of sound.
The flight is an important step toward winning the Ansari X Prize, a $10 million award for the first privately financed three-seat spacecraft to reach an altitude of 62 miles and repeat the feat within two weeks.
The SpaceShipOne project was funded by Microsoft co-founder Paul Allen, who said the project cost more than $20 million.
Although the flight appeared to go flawlessly, SpaceShipOne designer Burt Rutan revealed afterward there was a serious malfunction when the craft's trim system failed, causing it to miss its atmospheric re-entry point by 22 miles.

St Cuthbert's Business and Enterprise College in Rochdale would like to notify all schools that they have a ever increasing amount of IT which is going to be made available to other schools.
Currently we have 8 promethean presenta boards, a number of Sunray 2's and other items which are available at minimal cost if any school is interested in them.
(the promethean boards are free due to age and would be useful as spare parts)

Albany-- Another downtown Albany business will soon close it's doors.
After two years on Jackson Street, Custom Interiors has decided to close and consolidate with their Leesburg location. Business owners say instead of being successful, they've continually lost money over the last two years.
Daphine McKenzie says the city and county assured them they would receive support with revitalization of downtown but so far they haven't seen it. They were further discouraged that the county hasn't fulfilled the Riverquarium's request for funding and believe that isn't a good sign for downtown.
The store plans to vacate the downtown location by September 1st.

What's up with Edwards' delegates
by msn1, Wed Jan 30, 2008 at 06:59:33 PM EST
With Edwards dropping out, one question is, what happens to his delegates? Let's take a look:
First, according to 2008 Democratic Convention Watch, Edwards had 27 public superdelegate endorsements. CNN had (actually, still has) it at 36. Doesn't matter. They're all now available. A superdelegate endorsement can change at any time anyway, so Edwards superdelegates are free to support anyone.
Now, on to his pledged delegates. Edwards won 4 delegates in New Hampshire, 14 in Iowa, and 8 in South Carolina. The New Hampshire delegates have been already chosen, so he "keeps" them. Who they end up voting for at the convention is another matter.
In Iowa, Edwards received 14 delegates, but they were split. 5 were state-level delegates, and 9 were Congressional District (CD)-level delegates. The CD-level delegates are basically history. First, there are county conventions, and then CD conventions. Since Edwards won't meet the 15% threshold at the county conventions, he won't have any representation at the CD conventions, and won't get any CD-level delegates. Where they go at this point is impossible to say.
But he will "keep" his 5 state-level delegates. By keep, what I mean is that his campaign gets to choose the 5 delegates. As noted in the comments, the state-level delegates are chosen in the state convention, and as Edwards won't meet the 15% threshold, he won't get any state-level delegates either.
South Carolina is more complicated. But reading the South Carolina Delegate Selection Plan, they essentially have a convention system similar to Iowa's, except the final number of delegates selected for each candidate has to match the numbers out of the primary. There's no mention of a candidate "releasing" his delegates, so for now, I'll assume Edwards gets to name his 8 delegates, but, I think we need a South Carolina expert to weigh in on this. (Again, who they end up voting for at the convention is another matter).
Remember a couple of things. There is no first-ballot "vote for your candidate" rule at the Democratic Convention. Technically, any delegate is free to vote for any candidate on any ballot. (There may be state rules mandating a vote - we're still looking into that). Therefore, there is no such thing as a "legal" release of delegates. There is a political "release" - almost all delegates will vote for their candidate unless their candidate tells them they don't have to. But from a Rules point of view, a "release" of delegates mean nothing.
And therefore, it doesn't matter whether Edwards "ended" his campaign or "suspended" it as far as his delegates go. My guess is he will tell any delegates he has left that they can vote for who they want, or he could endorse someone and tell his delegates to vote for that person. But it doesn't matter from a rules point of view. They can vote for anybody at any time anyway, regardless of what Edwards did or say today or does in the future. - Matt

Wife wanted a kitchen island when we redid our kitchen. I did not, it would just be another horizontal surface to collect stuff. We compromised, I built a temporary table the size she wanted from scraps and covered it with a table cloth. After several months I gave in to being wrong, it was very useful. A table can be moved if needed, not stationary like a fixed island.
She wanted the table to be made from hickory like our cabinets and have a stainless top for baking. pictured is our finished project. My first attempt at building a table. It came out OK. The stainless top is great for make cookies.
Thanks for looking, all comments welcome. Lumberjocks has been a great inspiration for us.

Very nice! Love the SS top and the hickory combo. If you would have asked, I'd have said "no that won't look good". I'd have been wrong! That looks great and I can see many advantages to the SS top.

The LG Nexus is a Travesty
I think we understand the Nexus 7. It's meant to be cheap, so we can make a few concessions on build, lack of features, etc. When it comes to phones, though, where we're tied to contracts, paying exorbitant monthly rates for data, subsidies, etc. the story is different. But that wouldn't be the whole picture. Other than the money being spent on these devices, you have the competitors, namely Apple and Microsoft. They clearly have a target in mind. Great products.
"Surface Phone Concept Design" via cdn0.sbnation.com
Microsoft recently revealed the Surface tablet and with it a challenge to the OEMs, "Do it better than us." With its flagship phones, they procured the likes of Nokia and they brought over their design language. Now, it's infectious. They even got HTC building phones like that. But, hey, no one's complaining. They look great. They're the merger of software and hardware that we've become accustomed to with the other company, Apple.
Apple, whether you liked it or not, just released another wildly successful iPhone. Iterative in design, but clearly a winner in the looks department. They push the limits of engineering and packaging to new heights, heights that they've set. Say what you will about the funky screen, the scuffing anodized chassis, and the crappy maps, the device is a stunning execution of married hardware and software.
Seeing a trend?
"The Nexus Evolution (from left to right, G1, Nexus One, Nexus S, Galaxy Nexus) via 1.androidauthority.com
The only people not picking up in that trend is +Android with their +Nexus line of phones. Okay, the Nexus One was decent, highlighting AMOLED technology, and an aluminum unibody, you could only complain that it had a trackball. The two Samsung devices after that were forgettable, but it didn't matter, because we were more excited about the software maturing. But now that Android is at this place with Jelly Bean, with 4.1.2 being such a mild bump, you have a sense that +Matias Duarte has got a solid course for the software, though I'm sure he'd say there is more to go. At this point, it at least feels unified; it's what a modern smartphone operating system should be doing.
So now, it's more important than ever to get the hardware down right. You could even argue that Microsoft got their design language down while still beta testing WP7! So, +Google just did a solid and released their own, beautifully designed Nexus Q. They're serious about design now. The re-branded ASUS tablet didn't necessarily go against it. The two went well together. As I said before, they had to meet a price point, even lose some money in the process. So the next Nexus phone, that's going to be a winner right?
So far? A resounding "wrong".
I think Google thinks they can win us over with specs. While I applaud the specs finally being "next generation" than current generation (see the OMAP chip in the Galaxy Nexus with ancient GPU), that approach just won't do anymore, if simply because, you're competitors are doing it better. As great as the S4 Pro is, the Adreno 320 is just powerful enough to be on par or slightly better than what's already found in the iPhone. While I won't argue with throwing more power and clock to give us the best Android experience (see, Savov's Galaxy Note II Review), is it not more important to start flexing some muscle in the hardware design department? Instead, what we're seeing is a "blinged" out Galaxy Nexus made by LG, complete with heat-warping, glitter rear fascia (that's not removable mind you).
"The Clubbed-Out Galaxy Nexus" via blog.laptopmag.com
This isn't the iPhone. You don't iterate the design of the Galaxy Nexus. When you iterate on cheap plastic, you get cheap plastic. At least the iPhone and the Lumia devices had a lofty reference point. The Nexus devices are lowest common denominator already. If you iterate on the lowest common denominator, guess what you get?
The lowest common denominator.
It doesn't matter if it's got a Snap Pro, 13 MP camera and fatter (FATTER!!!) display... let me digress for a moment. I know people want big displays and all, but at 4.7", make it thinner, not wider! Lose the bezel, thin out the plastic border, give me a RAZR M philosophy. I can't believe I just said that but that's how infuriating these LG rumors are! Instead of giving the Android-loving community the Aston-Martin of Nexus designs, what we're getting is, in essence, "Porsche-designed" Blackberries.
Instead of an exercise in practical, industrial design, Google has delivered, through LG as a partner, a Galaxy Nexus with a glitter ball effect on the back.
For your sake, Google, I do hope you have expanded your Nexus program and that someone is coming up with something greater than this. Something to go up with the likes of Apple, Nokia, and HTC's WP8 devices. There are beautiful concept designs out there. It is not this LG Nexus. It is not the Galaxy Nexus II (which is essentially a refreshed first version). The 5" HTC DLX is a failure before it even begins. Motorola? Has our bastion of hope that a beautifully constructed Nexus phone rest on the shoulders of Motorola?
"No... just. No." via www.3g.co.uk
But, if there is a change to the Nexus program, I want to issue yet one more encouragement:
Get your act together with the carriers. Your (promised) update mechanism is atrocious. I happily own a Galaxy Nexus on Verizon, but you screwed the pooch and tainted your brand. Seriously, who is in charge over there? You're Google. You're part of the "Gang of Four". Maybe, it's like what Woz said about Apple. They got arrogant. You're arrogant Google. You think, "1+ billion activations a day, let's just ride this wave." It's terrible. If a company could feel shame, you should.
As said in a recent Vergecast, "Google, bring your A game." Apple's continuing to go thermonuclear on Android. And Microsoft isn't intent on being #3, they want it all. You can start a "Schmidt-storm" by leaving Microsoft out of the conversation, but they're gunning for it, specifically, gunning for you. What are you doing about it? Releasing (rumored) glitter phones. Travesty.

homemade gourmet popsicles
For the hot weather, I am going to start experimenting with my lonely, unused since last year popsicle molds. You can use almost anything to create some frozen delights, just open up the fridge and investigate your ingredients...if you run out of ideas there you can head to the garden for thyme, mint, melons, etc.
Tips:: Tongue depressors from your local pharmacy can be used with paper cups. Turn your smoothies and puddings into popsicles. Be generous with your spices and sweeteners, or what tasted great in your glass may dull the flavor once frozen.
Lavender Blueberry 1 1/2 cups full-fat Greek yogurt
3/4 cup coconut milk
1/4 cup blueberry preserves (or grape preserves)
1 pint blueberries
1 tablespoon plus 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 teaspoon dried lavender blossoms
Creamy Coconut Banana
1 1/2 cups full-fat Greek yogurt
2 bananas, very ripe
1 cup coconut milk
3 tablespoons honey
3/4 cup unsweetened coconut flakes
Cacao Banana Date Pops
1 1/2 cups full-fat Greek yogurt
1 cup whole milk
8 large pitted dates
1 frozen banana
3 tablespoons honey
3 TS cacao powder
Peach Popsicles
1 1/2 cups full-fat Greek yogurt
1/2 cup whole milk
1/4 cup coconut milk
1/4 cup honey
4 cups sliced peaches (4 to 5 peaches)
Any Type Fruit-Yogurt Popsicles makes 4-6, depending on the size of your molds
1 pint berries or fruit like mango, banana, peach, etc. 6 T honey or 4 T Agave 4 tablespoons coconut milk 1 teaspoon lemon juice 1 cup Greek style yogurt
Bring your berries, water, and sweetener to a simmer in a medium sauce pan. Simmer for five minutes, or until berries are soft. Pour into a food processor, add the lemon juice, and pulse a few times, until fruit is almost pureed but not liquified. Chill in the refrigerator until cool.
Stir the yogurt into the berry mixture until combined. Pour into molds and freeze for at least 8 hours or overnight.To Make Layered Pops: Pour an inch or so of yogurt into the bottom of each popsicle mold. Freeze this until the yogurt is just set, about 45 minutes. Pour an inch of pomegranate juice on top and freeze until just set, another 45 minutes or so. Repeat in layers until the pops are filled. If your molds don't come with their own sticks, insert wooden popsicle sticks along with the third layer. Freeze another 2-3 hours or overnight, until the popsicles are solid.

Cool! Thanks! AK LOVES MP!!!!!!
Agree! Would love to see an alaska section!
I've added Alaska to the areas linked to this forum.

Ouachita Baptist University's Division of Music will present a concert by the OBU Trombone and Flute Choirs on Monday, Oct. 21, at 7:30 p.m. in Mabee Fine Art Center's McBeth Recital Hall. The concert is free and open to the public.
"I try to choose music for the Trombone Choir that will get all the players involved," said Dr. Justin Isenhour, director of the Trombone Choir and assistant professor of music.
Part of Isenhour's responsibility as director of the ensemble is to help each member enhance his skills. The group provides an opportunity for the performers to play in a small chamber setting.
"I try to balance my pedagogical desires with building a concert program that is interesting to an audience and contains music in a variety of styles," Isenhour added.
The concert will feature Buddy Baker's arrangement of "Colorado Trail," as well as "Suite of Lieder" by Franz Schubert, "Georgia on My Mind" by Hoagy Carmichael, "Hunter's Chorus" from Der Freischutz by Carl Maria von Weber and "Der Koing" and "Umzug" by Michael Praetorius.
"I am really looking forward to 'Colorado Trail' because the piece has a unique use of vocal harmonies alongside the soloist in the piece," said Jeremy Cooper, a junior Christian studies/Christian ministries and psychology major from Mesquite, Texas. "Students will enjoy this concert because it is a great way to see what all of your friends have been hard at work doing this semester, and all of the music is great." "Colorado Trail" will feature soloist Bret Steed, a senior music performance major from Idabel, Okla.
The Ouachita Flute Choir is a chamber ensemble featuring the C flute, as well as piccolo, alto flute, bass flute and contra bass flute. Kristin Grant, assistant professor of music, conducts the ensemble.
The Flute Choir will perform "Canzon" by Giovanni Gabrielli, "Memories of East Tennessee in the Early Forties" by Austin Alan Scott and "Sinfonico, Op. 12″ by Anton Reicha. According to Grant, these selections range in style from the late Renaissance canzon, to the Classical piece by Reicha, and the modern piece by Scott, which was inspired by the Great Smoky Mountains in East Tennessee, revival hymns and traditional dance tunes.
Members of the Trombone Choir include Cooper and Steed as well as Dr. Kevin Cornelius, associate professor of physics; Dalton King, a freshman instrumental music education major from Greenwood, Ark.; Jason Potts, a freshman instrumental music education major from Springdale, Ark.; Evan Rogers, a senior church music major from Jacksonville, Ark.; and Kaden Sosebee, a sophomore Christian studies/Christian theology and Biblical studies major from Fort Smith, Ark.
Cornelius affirmed the opportunity to perform with the ensemble. "I periodically play the trumpet or trombone at church and have had the privilege of playing in several trombone ensembles at OBU over the years," he noted.
Members of the Flute Choir include Megan Archer, a sophomore instrumental music education major from Osceola, Ark.; Elizabeth Baker, a senior music performance major from Grapevine, Texas; Maegan Hodge, a senior Spanish and secondary education major from Springdale, Ark.; Kathryn Lee, a senior music major from Azle, Texas; Jayla Luxton, a freshman music major from Alexander, Ark.; Megan Massey, a senior instrumental music education major from Weatherford,Texas; Emma Patterson, a senior choral music education major from Garland, Texas; LeeAnne Polk, a senior music major from Greenville,Texas; Dr. Heather Thayer, assistant director of music; and Caroline Twyford, a freshman music major from Hot Springs, Ark.

Ouachita Baptist University's School of Fine Arts will present OBU's Percussion Ensemble in concert Tuesday, Oct. 22 at 7:30 p.m. in McBeth Recital Hall. The ensemble is under the direction of Dr. Ryan Lewis, OBU assistant professor of music. This event is free and open to the public.
The OBU Percussion Ensemble presents several concerts each year, including fall and spring semester concerts as well as special event appearances. Repertoire selections range from chamber works for trios and quartets to works involving larger numbers of ensemble members.
The Oct. 22 concert will feature three pieces for drums and percussion and three pieces featuring keyboard percussion instruments such as marimba, xylophone and vibraphone. The ensemble will perform "Din" by Andy Harsnberger, "Puzzle Piece" by Rich O'Meara, the second movement of "Trio per Uno" by Nebosja Zivovic, "Coffee Break" by Mark Ford and Ewelina Bernacka Ford and "Sharpened Stick" by Brett Dietz, concluding with "Marimba Spiritual" by Minoru Miki.
"Din" is a rudimental-style trio in which each performer has a kick drum, bongos, snare drum, floor tom and cymbal. "Puzzle Piece" is a marimba trio in a minimalist style made up of interlocking rhythms that fit together like jigsaw puzzle pieces. Movement two from "Trio per Uno" is a beautiful trio for two vibraphones and crotales with rain stick, sizzle cymbal and glass wind chimes. "Coffee Break" is a STOMP-inspired, groove-based work for five players using coffee cups from OBU's Dr. Jack's Coffeehouse.
"Sharpened Stick" is inspired by the Native American fish-step dance style. According to Lewis, this powerhouse quintet is full of complex polyrhythms (rhythms that do not typically "fit" together) and has become a modern classic of the percussion ensemble repertoire. Chris Hogan will be the marimba soloist on "Marimba Spiritual," a Japanese piece inspired by the Ethiopian famine of the 1980s.
The OBU Percussion Ensemble includes: Aaron Breeding, a freshman instrumental music education major from Springdale, Ark.; Drew Ervin, a junior music and computer science major from Springdale, Ark.; Gabriel Ess, a freshman music major from Sachse, Texas; Carter Harlan, a sophomore instrumental music education major from Fayetteville, Ark.; Sarah Harney, a freshman early childhood education major from Crossett, Ark.; Chris Hogan, a junior instrumental music education major from Bartlesville, Okla.; Julie Nessler, a sophomore biology major from Rowlett, Texas; Van O'Rorke, a freshman instrumental music education major from Hot Springs, Ark.; Stephen Vaughn, a freshman church music major from Hot Springs, Ark.; and Zack Willis, a freshman music performance major from Redfield, Ark.
Lewis has served since 2009 as assistant professor of music at OBU, where he teaches applied percussion, percussion techniques and music history courses. Lewis directs the Percussion Ensemble, Marching Band Drum Line and Tiger Steel Drum Band.

20Ryan Lochte Wants To Be Just Like Kim Kardashian
As you probably already know, Ryan Lochte has a reality show coming on soon, and who better to look to as a beacon of success in that arena but Kim Kardashian, the veritable queen of unscripted-but-really-scripted TV? I know, I know – who in their right mind would want to have anything in common with the Kardashians (except maybe their money)? Alas, Ryan's swimming prowess has canceled out his brain power and that's exactly what he wants.
From The Hollywood Reporter:
"Kim started from pretty much nothing, and now everyone everywhere knows who she is," he says. "That's what I want to do."
As well known for his six-pack abs, "playa" reputation and oversize sneaker collection as he is for his three world records and 11 Olympic medals (including five golds), Lochte sees no reason why he can't follow Kardashian's trajectory. "I've seen what E! has done in the past with reality shows like hers," he says admiringly of his network co-star, whom he has not yet met. "Today, she's huge."
Well… okay, but newsflash: training your whole life to become a world-class athlete who has won medals at the Olympics is a much bigger accomplishment than turning your life into a soap opera for any gadget with a record function in a 100 yard radius. I mean, I think so, anyway.
What Would Ryan Lochte Do? seems like the Jackass of the Generation Y set – stoners, apply within – and therefore it will probably be cringe-worthy and really hilarious. In other words, I'm in.

He is soooo HOT !!! I would love to see more of him but I hope he doesn't give up swimming because he is very talented and he should keep with the sport while he is still young :) he can do tv when he retires because he has a face and a body that people love to see !! Unlike Kim !! She has no talent and is a nasty whore !!
Oh man, I guess you have never seen an interview with him. He seriously is one of the dumbest people on Earth. He makes Kim Kardashian look like Stephen Hawking. There is nothing going on up there. I don't know if it's because he has a low IQ or because he was allowed to skip school so he could spend more time in the pool, but I kid you not. Look on YouTube. If he has a career in television, it will only be reality television and only so people can laugh at his shockingly stupid observations. JEAH!!
I'm with Mike on this one. He has retardation oozing out of every pore on his body.
Word Mike…. The guy has always been an asshat… And he is, indeed, dumb as a fucking post. Just for grins, re-read Julias post…. You will then see why she likes Ryan! Am I right?
Heh heh…
oh man siad no difference
I said he was talented in swimming and had the face and body for tv ! I didn't say the brains ! But it's clear sex sells so he could do good ! I seen some of his interviews and I agree he acts like a dumbass but I just can't stop staring at his gorgeous face and body :) as for you Chaz I really real sorry for you that your such an angry scumbag all the time ! Your life must be real shitty that you need to bash people for no reason to feel accepted and good about yourself ! My heart really breaks for you :( I would tell you to try and get a life but I can't imagine you doing anything but sitting at a poker table being a nobody :( your family must be proud of you !
Well, that was… unnecessary. This is a gossip site. Gossip sites are fun because we get to make fun of celebs and talk crap about them. It's a hobby or a job, not a way of life. And even if it was, it would be an entertaining one. So, kssssht! Kssshhhhhht! Shooo!
Yeah… You tell her Penny!
I love the gossip sites and I agree they are just for fun and I usually only comment on the subject but Chaz is a fucking idiot that has been nothing but rude, obnoxious and a bully to me for the last six months for no reason and I'm really sick of it !!
Please Julia, don't feel sorry for me. I'm self employed, usually only work 7-8 months a year leaving me plenty of time to vacation to ski and play with the fam or friends. I coach 2 rugby teams, play on another, and attend all of my kids activities. Btw, my family's very proud of me, even when I go to Vegas twice a year and play Texas Hold 'Em. This summer I will go with the family to Scotland for a month, it's a rough/sad life!
Your posts are ignorant, as is your inane chatter about fertility treatments, hyper punctuation, and lack of spelling and grammar. Your post on the Biebs in Paris was classic. However, I did notice you were able to spell the name of the designer correctly, props for that! Tell the truth, someone in your family won Powerball & gave you a chunk, right?
The more you talk the more you look like a idiot ! I don't know who you think you are to judge people and bully people for your own pleasure ! I do feel sorry for your friends if you have any and your family because I would never let someone like you coach my child's team with your judgmental attitude ! You can't have an adult conversation with adults I would hate to see what you say to kids ! Why are you so angry all the time ? Why do you feel the need to bash people over stupid things ? Your live must really suck to have such anger all the time ! I wonder what those kids parents would think if they saw how you bully people ! Your not a good role model for any child ! By the way I am lucky to be wealthy and retired and I'm only 42 ! So I guess it doesn't matter if I can't spell :) I am a good person and I give back and do a lot of volunteer work for several project that are close to my heart ! I don't sit around being the grammar police so I can bash someone to make my self feel better because I'm a loser ! The only people that act the way you do is because their live sucks !!!!!!! Sorry for you !!!!!!
I just noticed you wrote: I really real sorry for you…. CLASSIC!
Hey, if someone is sitting at a poker table, they have already one upped you.
He's a complete idiot and is further proof of the dumbing down of America. I wouldn't waste 2 seconds of my life watching this fool outside of an Olympic event. Even then, the scent of douche made me root for other swimmers.
He said for they for get doing forgot here for you kind for the are very happened going school name high school simsboro elemantary.
Well if he needed a partner to get practice for his sex tape, Im in.
But he did say one thing right about that skanky money grabbing media whore Kim Kow-dashian, – "Today, she's huge." lol

My ideal Mock Draft for the Bills (Rounds 1-5):
1) Riley Reiff (OT)
2) Janoris Jenkins (CB) (Rumors are that he will slip to the 2nd round)
3) Nick Toon (WR)
4a) Russell Wilson (Developmental QB)
4b) Emmanuel Acho (OLB)
5) Nate Potter (OT)
Obviously, I understand that other people will not agree with this mock draft. However, I think it addresses our needs in a reasonable manner. I have seen Jenkins drop to the 2nd round, so I understand if people are skeptical. But, this is an ideal mock draft. Please do voice your opinion(s) and make sure to stay tuned to the REAL draft on ESPN on April 26th at 8 p.m. :)

Police are looking a man and woman, whom they believe, shot and killed a man during a robbery.
It happened early Sunday morning, near a Dallas apartment complex, near the intersection of Hawthorne and Lake avenues.
Detectives say a man with a gun, and a woman, demanded money from two men.
The suspects fired one shot in the air.
There was then a fight and police say the gun went off again during the struggle.
One of the victims, 48 year old Jose Salazar, was hit and died at the scene.
The other robbery victim was not hurt.
The suspects ran from the scene - there is no description of them at this time.

Isolation Research
One of the coolest things about writing for The Reference Council is that we get to post whatever we want. There's no brands we need to pander to or limits on what we can post. It's kind of liberating, as it means we can share with you whatever we think you'll find interesting. It, at least, provides something a bit different. This is a fascinating article on a Russian family who lived in complete isolation for 40 years, unaware that World War II had even happened.

Being a life long Jets fan and season ticket holder I want to let all the Vikings fans out there know that you don't want this guy on your team. I was all for it last year when he came to the Jets. We updated a horrific offensive line and signed some big men upfront on the defense. The veteran Farve looked to be the final piece to compete for the division until he arrived.....
It sooned became apparent the Farve had some strange obsession with the Packers, it was all he talked about. He never wanted to be a Jet and the fans and team knew it. First of all he wasn't smart enough to learn the offense which of course led to the coaches dumbing it down for the first 6 weeks of the season. Once the team got going we did have success but it was more because of having the leading rusher in the AFC, Thomas Jones and the NFL all purpose yards leader in Leon Washington both Pro-Bowlers.
Down the stretch, be it injury or not, he was terrible. He changed plays on the line that lead to interceptions, threw the ball up for grabs, lost the respect of his teammates and refused to be taken out of the games eventually leading to the firing of the coaching staff.
Looking back I regret my team picking up this 40 year old broken down QB with a Green Bay obsession. He was nothing but a disaster and there is no doubt we would have been much better with Chad Pennington. Hopefully you will have more success than we did with him but be prepared for his diva attitude, what Farve wants Farve gets. He basically runs the offense and it seems as the front office and coaching staff bends to his ever whim. I would stay far away from this guy.

Your hormones play an extremely important role in the proper functioning of your body. They help to regulate the growth and development of your body. They also help to regulate the functioning of all the organs which are present in your body. If your hormones are not balanced, your body cannot function as efficiently as it should.
Hormonal imbalances normally affect people during puberty and when they are over forty years of age. During these stages in life, the human body undergoes certain changes which cause the hormones to become imbalanced. Hormonal imbalances are normally treated with the help of prescription medication. However, the problem can be brought under control even with the help of various herbs.
These remedies are completely natural and so they are unlikely to cause side-effects in the body. It is important to note that such herbal remedies must be consumed only on the advice of your physician who will also be able to determine the proper dosage for such herbs. Given below are some herbal remedies which are extremely beneficial in the treatment of hormonal imbalances.
Effective Herbal Remedies for Treating Hormonal Imbalance

This berry is able to bring the hormones under control if it is taken on a regular basis. Chasteberry supplements are readily available everywhere.

The Externship offers students an opportunity to develop the skills necessary to bridge the gap between law school and law practice. Through the Externship, students prepare for "effective and responsible participation in the legal profession" (ABA Std. 301) by applying the core concepts learned in law school courses to the challenges presented in the actual, in-office practice of law.
The externship placement program allows a student to work under the supervision of a lawyer or judge in a public law office, government agency, or not for profit organization or for an attorney in private practice so long as the student is assisting only with pro bono work performed by that attorney, for such purposes as:
- Enhancing their legal research and writing skills
- Taking part in and observing law practice or judicial decision making
- Using concepts and skills learned in regular law school classes
- Appearing before courts and administrative agencies under Missouri Supreme Court Rule 13
- Understanding the requirements of compliance with the rules of professional responsibility
- Considering the difficult human and ethical problems that face modern lawyers

I'm in San Jose California at SmokeEaters Hot Wings ready to take on the Hellfire Challenge! If I eat 12 Fukushima-spicy hot wings in under 10 minutes I get a Tshirt and the respect of obese people watching my show across the country. Also, I think there was a Cal baseball game against Dallas Baptist in the Santa Clara College World Series Super Regional. Let's go on a photo journey of Saturday's fun, shall we?
Remember when they cancelled Cal Baseball? How'd that work out?
Seriously though, please donate and spread the word that there is more money to be raised to keep Cal baseball running. More info at www.savecalbaseball.com. The tireless folks from SCB held a pregame party at SmokeEaters down the street from Santa Clara's baseball stadium. 20 percent of all sales went to the fund. Finally! My drinking and overeating went toward a good cause!
Look at me, I'm a giver. Also, sidenote those are the Atomic wings, which were way mild. If you're into spicy, start with the Traditional Death level. But DO NOT try the Hellfire Wings. A guy doing the challenge let me taste a pinky tip worth of the sauce and my life was painful for about an hour of so after. I have nothing but respect for Adam Richman after that.
It's the guy from the show!
Anyhoo, let's get to the game already. We walked down the street to the stadium through lovely Santa Clara, which has the aesthetic feel of your typical suburban Californian community with faux Hispanic sensibilities.
Cuyo domicilio?!!
Tickets where totes sold out and the stadium was overflowing with Cal fans. Those that couldn't make it inside lined the fences and climbed onto the staircases of el domicilio to watch the game from beyond center field Tightwad Hill style.
The cheep seats.
Cal fans trying to catch the game for free (also the creepiest photo I've ever taken).
We finally made it inside and found the place packed! Cal fans really represented Saturday. About a couple hundred Patriot fans were there, but Schott stadium was Bear Territory.
Cal came out for pregame introductions and after that, Dallas Baptist had no chance. Justin Jones had absolutely filthy, nasty, diabolical, anti-semetic (too much?) stuff working for him Saturday. He made the Patriot batters look silly for even trying.
Justin, trying to figure out how to humiliate the next batter.
Meanwhile, on offense, Cal was hitting seeds off Patriots' pitcher Brandon Williamson and it was only a matter of time before they started to land for base hits. Or, for three run homeruns. Either way was good for me.
Derek Campbell up to bat. I love this team's approach to hitting, bee tee dubayou. Aggressive, but smart. I know that can lead to problems sometimes, but you gotta take chances in my opinion. Also, I'm sick of watching Daric Barton take 9 pitch strikeouts for the A's.
Semien coming in to score on his 3 run dinger.
And then they celebrated.
Random photo, apparently David Crosby is working for ESPN now. Good for him.
After a while, it became a question of whether or not Cal could sustain the shutout. Once Justin left the crowd was very nervous about his future and our chances. We were glad to hear via you folks commenting here that it looked like it wasn't anything major. Totes preesh! But in the end we did hold them off and won 7-0. Here's a video that the GF took of the last 5 minutes of the game when things got slightly tense.
Good game, good game, good game, good game, good game.....
And this is pretty much all that needs to be said.
That and Go Bears!! Team of destiny.
