Sweet Potato Ham Casserole
"If you like sweet potatoes, this is a great way to serve them," says Barbara Smith of Cannon Falls, Minnesota. "It's so easy to make this meal-in-one dish. I like to think of the marshmallows on top as dessert!"
2 Servings
Prep: 20 min. Bake: 15 min.
1 large sweet potato, about (10 ounces)
1/4 cup water
1 boneless fully cooked ham steaks (1/2 pound and 3/4 inch thick)
1 tablespoon butter
1/3 cup unsweetened pineapple juice
2 tablespoons packed brown sugar
1 can (8 ounces) pineapple chunks, drained
1/3 cup miniature marshmallows
Peel sweet potato and cut into chunks. Place in a microwave-safe
dish; add water. Cover and microwave on high for 7-9 minutes or
until tender; drain and set aside.
Cut ham into two pieces. In a skillet, brown ham in butter on both
sides. In a bowl, combine pineapple juice and brown sugar; stir
until sugar is dissolved. Pour over ham. Bring to a boil. Reduce
heat; simmer, uncovered, for 5-7 minutes or until slightly
Transfer ham to a greased shallow 1-qt. baking dish. Place sweet
potato and pineapple around edge of dish. Pour brown sugar mixture
over the top. Bake, uncovered, at 400° for 12-15 minutes or

RICKOVER: The Birth of Nuclear Power will broadcast on PBS, December 9th at 8 p.m. (check local listings).
Combative, provocative and searingly blunt, Admiral Hyman G. Rickover was a flamboyant maverick, a unique American hero. When few thought it possible, then-Captain Rickover undertook to harness the power of the atom to drive the first nuclear-powered submarine, the USS Nautilus, whose trip under the polar ice pack was one of the great adventure stories of the 1950s. Later, Rickover built the world's first commercial nuclear power plant at Shippingport, PA. Rickover's achievements made him into a national celebrity, and he appeared on the cover of Time magazine. Many questioned Rickover's goal of an all nuclear navy, and others questioned his creation of a technocratic elite, his own navy within the Navy. However, few contested that he had transformed the Navy and changed the course of America's technological development.
Today, questions about nuclear power have arisen again, in the wake of the disaster in Japan, yet nuclear power remains one of the main alternatives to fossil fuels. Many wonder whether America can maintain its technological pre-eminence and whether we can still build and manage large-scale projects. To understand these issues, we would do well to consider the story of the man who created the nuclear navy as well as the civilian nuclear power industry: Hyman G. Rickover.
RICKOVER: The Birth of Nuclear Power won Best Feature Documentary at the 2014 GI Film Festival.
RICKOVER: The Birth of Nuclear Power is now available for purchase on DVD.

|Twists of Shimura Curves
Consider a Shimura curve $X^D_0(N)$ over the rational numbers. We determine criteria for the twist by an Atkin-Lehner involution to have points over a local field. As a corollary we give a new proof of the theorem of Jordan-Livné on $\mathbf{Q}_p$ points when $p\mid D$ and for the first time give criteria for $\mathbf{Q}_p$ points when $p\mid N$. We also give congruence conditions for roots modulo $p$ of Hilbert class polynomials.

|Galois Representations Over Fields of Moduli and Rational Points on Shimura Curves
The purpose of this note is introducing a method for proving the existence of no rational points on a coarse moduli space $X$ of abelian varieties over a given number field $K$, in cases where the moduli problem is not fine and points in $X(K)$ may not be represented by an abelian variety (with additional structure) admitting a model over the field $K$. This is typically the case when the abelian varieties that are being classified have even dimension. The main idea, inspired on the work of Ellenberg and Skinner on the modularity of $\mathbb{Q}$-curves, is that to a point $P=[A]\in X(K)$ represented by an abelian variety $A/\bar K$ one may still attach a Galois representation of $\operatorname{Gal}(\bar K/K)$ with values in the quotient group $\operatorname{GL}(T_\ell(A))/\operatorname{Aut}(A)$, provided $\operatorname{Aut}(A)$ lies in the centre of $\operatorname{GL}(T_\ell(A))$. We exemplify our method in the cases where $X$ is a Shimura curve over an imaginary quadratic field or an Atkin-Lehner quotient over $\mathbb{Q}$.

Biennial Grant Competition
Oregon Sea Grant Call for Preliminary Proposals
Grant Period: February 2014–January 2016
(Note: This funding cycle has passed; this information is presented as an example of the usual process and timeline for our biennial omnibus funding cycle.)
The Oregon Sea Grant Program invites preliminary proposals for research on important marine and coastal issues from researchers who are affiliated with any institution of higher education. Proposals will be entered into a highly competitive review and selection process. Proposed work may begin on either February 1, 2014, or February 1, 2015. Available funding is set by the NOAA Sea Grant Program based on congressional appropriations.
Pre-proposals are reviewed by external scientists, a citizen advisory board and Oregon Sea Grant leadership to ensure that they match the priorities and goals set forth in our strategic plan. Based on these evaluations, OSG will issue invitations for full proposals. Full proposals undergo independent external mail reviews as well as science panel and citizen advisory panel reviews of both scientific excellence and societal relevance.
Complete guidelines for preparing and submitting a proposal will be found on our online submission system (we will switch to a new system early in 2015.
• Preliminary proposals due: Friday, February 15, 2013, before 5:00 p.m. PST
• Invitations for full proposals: Friday, March 15, 2013
• Full proposals due: May 13, 2013, before 5:00 p.m. PST
• Peer review period: May 17, 2013, to August 2, 2013
• Reviews to investigators: August 9, 2013
• Investigator responses to reviews due: August 16, 2013 DEADLINE EXTENDED TO August 21, 2013
• Notice of funding decisions: Monday, September 23, 2013 DEADLINE EXTENDED TO October 7,2013
• Successful projects begin: February 1, 2014, or February 1, 2015
What we are looking for
An ideal Sea Grant proposal would apply the best science and an innovative approach to a well-defined coastal or marine problem or opportunity that is important to Oregon, the Pacific Northwest Region, and the nation. The two primary criteria for evaluating proposals are 1) scientific excellence and 2) societal relevance. All proposals must state how they match up with the Oregon Sea Grant Strategic Plan. As we are in the process of updating our strategic plan for 2014-2017, please refer to both the plan in development and our current strategic plan for 2010-2013.
In addition to these guidance documents, we are also seeking proposals that address emerging issues.. Further, our Free Choice-Learning program element continues to evolve and address the broader Ocean literacy focus, and we welcome proposals that pertain to this topic.
Successful proposals are also likely to:
• show significant progress within two years
• focus on prediction (rather than explanation)
• focus on outcomes and clearly show how and to whom the work would make a difference
• include meaningful collaboration with industries, agencies, communities, or other stakeholders
• have substantive evidence of co-funding or co-support from interested stakeholders and partners in the form of match
• request less than $90,000 per year and provide convincing justification for the funds
• involve regional or multi-institutional collaboration, especially that which involves one or more Sea Grant programs from other states
• include support for students
• explore potential long-term impacts to society and how the research may benefit stakeholders
Who may apply
Preliminary proposals may be submitted by faculty of any public or private institution of higher education. While non-academic researchers may be included among the investigators, awards will be made only through colleges and universities. We encourage the involvement of collaborators and researchers who are not university faculty, but the project's Principal Investigator must be a faculty member. Researchers may submit more than one preliminary proposal, but it is unlikely that more than one full proposal will be requested from any individual investigator.
Grant funding comes from our NOAA appropriation and totals about $1.7 million over two years.
Not all excellent proposals can be funded: proposals that provide high value usually receive higher ranking. Proposals requesting larger amounts will be accepted; however, all else being equal, proposals that request $90,000 or less per year will have a competitive advantage since we want to fund as many efforts as possible.
Federal law requires that Oregon Sea Grant provide a non-federal cost share of one dollar for every two dollars of federal funds received. Since our Omnibus Program Plan is a culmination of many projects with cost share from a variety of state, local, or private funds or in-kind services, we can be somewhat flexible on this requirement, but researchers are advised to take cost share into consideration as they develop their budgets and projects.
Proposals requesting support for either one or two years will have a distinct competitive advantage over proposals seeking three years of support. Requests for support exceeding three years will not be considered. Proposals to continue work beyond the initial one or two years may be entered into a future biennial competition.
Oregon Sea Grant supports graduate students working on Oregon Sea Grant-funded research projects awarded through its competitive process, providing supported students with a stipend, tuition remission, and other benefits. Oregon Sea Grant may also fund undergraduate student summer scholars for work on your grant. Further information will be provided to you for full proposal submittals.
All students supported by Sea Grant are considered Sea Grant Scholars. The Oregon Sea Grant's Scholars Program helps create a community for supported students and provides them with professional development opportunities, giving them the ability to connect research to appropriate outreach. The Oregon Sea Grant Scholars supported on funded proposals are expected to participate in Oregon Sea Grant activities, such as orientation meetings, workshops, and colloquia, at which students will present their work to other Sea Grant Scholars researchers, faculty, and staff.
We strongly encourage multi-institutional approaches to regional issues which include proposals that mobilize the best research talent to address complex issues and which involve funding from more than one Sea Grant program. Since such an approach is administratively complex, we suggest that investigators informally discuss ideas with us before submitting such a preliminary or full proposal.
We will fund the best science that is relevant to Oregon stakeholders. Research to gain knowledge solely for its own sake is considered inappropriate for Oregon Sea Grant support. Proposals are rigorously reviewed by at least three outside peer reviewers, a panel of scientists and by the OSG Citizen Advisory Council.
In full proposals, investigators must present a clear rationale for the proposed project, expected outcomes from the research, and beneficiaries of the proposed work. Proposals are expected to describe stakeholder engagement goals and how they will be achieved through outreach and/or education. Proposals should describe how the results of the project will benefit stakeholders (e.g., local coastal communities, public and private sectors) and how the project will engage these stakeholders along the way.
For further guidance on incorporating engagement into your proposal, contact Oregon Sea Grant Chief Scientist, Bill Hanshumaker. Additional resources on creating quality outreach and education opportunities are available on the COSEE website.
Following Sea Grant's evaluation of proposals, all applicants will be notified regarding their proposal's status. Sea Grant reserves the right to negotiate and/or adjust the final grant amount and work plan prior to award, as appropriate and consistent with University policy and funds available.
Any additional information about this RFP will be posted on Oregon Sea Grant's website.
NOAA DATA SHARING REQUIREMENT (effective for all new NOAA funded research projects)
Data and information collected and/or created under NOAA grants and cooperative agreements must be made visible, accessible, and independently understandable to general users, free of charge or at minimal cost, in a timely manner (typically no later than two years after the data are collected or created), except where limited by law, regulation, policy or by security requirements.
The new requirement has two basic parts: (1) environmental data generated by a grant project must be made available after a reasonable period of exclusive use, and (2) the grant application must describe the plan to make the data available.
To comply with this new requirement, in the full proposal stage, the Principal Investigator must comply with the process described in Webnibus, and in that full proposal, explain how the data and metadata will be provided. Funds may be budgeted in the project proposal for this task. For the pre-proposal, the Principal Investigator must simply agree in writing that they intend to follow this new NOAA requirement.

Continental Grand Prix 4 Season Tire - Clincher $74.95
Ride all year.
The Continental Grand Prix 4 Season Tire takes the overall grippiness and performance inherent to the G.P. 4000 and adds extra sidewall durability to increase the puncture protection. DuraSkin is Continental's patented nylon mesh layer that significantly beefs up the sidewall for flat resistance, without compromising a supple ride quality or adding significant weight.
When you look at the tread pattern, you'll find that the GP 4 Season has slight knurled panels toward the shoulder, which help you find grip, especially on inconsistent road surfaces. This being a tire designed for variable riding conditions, there are channels that direct water away from the centerline of the tire, further enhancing grip. Yet unlike on some other mixed-conditions road tires, the centerline is uninterrupted, ensuring fast rolling.
The rubber compound is designed to stay pliable in cold conditions, to ensure grip when fair-weather tires have hardened up and become slippery. The 330 TPI folding casing offers up a smoother ride than many other durable road tires, making it a perfect option for those who refuse to sacrifice ride quality simply because they want a robust tire.
The Continental Grand Prix 4 Season Tire comes in 700c x 23mm, and in the color Black.

[AL-fred] is a town in York County, incorporated on February 25, 1808.
It was named for Alfred the Great, England's Saxon King of the Ninth Century.
Though Simon Coffin of Massachusetts arrived in 1764, the first permanent settlement took place in 1770.
Later, a Shaker community, including Alfred Town Hall members of the Coffin family, settled on a hill overlooking what is now called Shaker Pond, a 78-acre water body in the town's north. The "Carriage House" on the hill hosts the Shaker Museum.
The Shaker community has been succeeded by a Catholic retreat campus on Shaker Hill. A statue there commemorates "J. M. Robert de la Mannais, 1780-1860, Founder of the Brothers of Christian Instruction."
Cemetery Lane leads to the resting place of Shakers, and Christian Brothers.
The York County seat since 1803, it was incorporated on February 4, 1794 as a district, having been part of Sanford.
John Holmes, who arrived in 1799, was a young lawyer specializing in real estate law, a skill in great demand in the poorly defined properties of the area.
Holmes, who became a U.S. Senator, provided the impetus for locating the York County Court House, completed in 1807, in Alfred.
Alfred set off land to Sanford on February 23, 1828 and annexed land from Waterborough (now Waterboro) on July 22, 1847.
Originally, the area was known to the Native Americans as Massabesic and was acquired from Chief Fluellin in 1661 by Major William Phipps. According to Brunelle the price was "'two large blankets, two gallons of rum, two pounds of powder, four pounds of musket balls, 20 strings of beads' and several other articles."
Alfred is the county seat of York County and was the site of a Civilian Conservation Corps camp in the 1930's.

MINNEAPOLIS (AP) - Minnesota Vikings season-ticket holders will have chance beginning this week to get an interactive look at the new stadium being built in downtown Minneapolis.
The Vikings and Van Wagner Sports & Entertainment will open a 7,500-square-foot preview center in a building next to the construction site. It has club seat and suite replicas and a panoramic view of various vantage points in the new stadium.
The Vikings are trying to get season-ticket holders to renew their interest in the team. Most of the seats in the new stadium require purchase of a one-time seat license in order to buy season tickets. Those license fees range from $500 to $9,500.
The cost of the stadium suites range from $110,000 to $500,000 per season.

Today's Big Idea: Humanizing Technology
By altering our ability to construct and adapt to our environment, technology constantly transforms how we think, how we interact, and how we see the world. The possibilities that have arisen as a result of the widespread use of personal computers and the invention of the Internet will require a whole new set of theories and conversations about the world. Everything has changed, from foreign policy to local governance to the arts.
We're in the early stages of constructing a digital society, which means re-examining old ways of doing things with a newly critical eye. Rebecca MacKinnon argues that social media can be a tool for organizing and participating in the creation of a global society. Jason Gots writes about the plight of the self-published e-author -- or how artists can take advantage of digital technologies. Dominic Basulto looks at our changing relationship to objects, asking, can we ever be attached to an e-book in the same way we're attached to paperbacks? Parag and Ayesha Khanna highlight an innovative startup that has created the first visually-arresting and easily-searchable electronic memory.

Kathy Grilliot, Terri Clark, Rosary Ossorio; Respiratory Therapy, Northern Virginia Community College, Springfield, VA
Background: One way speaking valves can be used during mechanical ventilation but use is limited by nuisance alarms and lack of known functional alternative alarms. Currently there are no valve use protocols available from ventilator manufacturers. This study assessed several brands of ventilators to determine how each ventilator performed with a closed position speaking valve inline, which modes were the most compatible and tested for disconnect alarms. Method: A bench study was performed using a Passy Muir® valve and the following ventilators: the Puritan Bennett 840, Philips Esprit, CareFusion Avea and Vela, Philips Trilogy 200 (active and passive circuits) and Maquet Servo-i. Each ventilator was set up with a standard circuit, closed suction catheter connected to a ventilation mannequin and a PMV 007. The ventilator modes evaluated were SIMV/PC, SIMV/VC, and/or NIV. Settings used were Vt 500 mls or pressure of 20 cmH2O, rate 12 breaths/min, FIO2 0.21, PEEP of 0 cmH2O and PS of 20 cmH2O. Ventilator alarms that activated upon disconnect were noted. Each ventilator was adjusted to a mode and alarm configuration which allowed use of the valve without nuisance alarms but offered a disconnect alarm in less than 15 seconds. Results: The AVEA, VELA, Trilogy 200 with the active circuit and Esprit ventilators each demonstrated compatibility in SIMV/VC and SIMV/PC modes with a functional disconnect alarm in less than 10 seconds. The PB840 and SERVO-i demonstrated compatibility in the NIV mode. The SERVO-i met expectations in less than 10 seconds using the high respiratory rate and high minute ventilation alarms as functional disconnect alarms. The PB840 alarmed low pressure as a yellow caution alarm at 15 seconds but did not reach a red priority alarm status. All ventilators tested met capabilities to cycle off a pressure support breath without returning volumes. Conclusion: The ventilators all functioned well with a closed position speaking valve in line with certain restrictions on the mode selected and alarm settings. A clinical study is warranted to support the results of this bench study. Sponsored Research Some ventilators were provided by Passy Muir, Inc. and Philips Respironics Sponsored Research - Passy Muir paid the bill to rent the ventilators that we did not own. Philips Respironics lent a ventilator to us.

Global economic structural changes always pose new challenges for the logistics industry.
In view of both the automation of material flows and globalisation of commodity flows, all means of transportation, such as the EPAL-pallet, must meet ever-increasing expectations.
This in turn requires stricter quality controls. EPAL guarantees the highest quality standard
for EPAL-pallets throughout the world.
EPAL (the European Pallet Association) was founded in 1991 to work with the European Railways to maintain a European-wide quality assurance and inspection standard for the
EURO pallet.
Our partners throughout the world, working with independent inspection and certification companies, are responsible for maintaining these strict quality controls outside of Europe.

Mendocino District Sector Superintendent Loren Rex has many irons in the fire as the state department welcomes its new director, retired Marine Corps Major General Anthony L. Jackson.
Amid all the statewide turmoil of investigations into the hidden funds and vacation buy-outs, locally, projects such as the Ten Mile Haul Road and Ten Mile dune restoration and blackberry removal on the Mendocino Headlands are under way. Rex continues to work on agreements with Point Cabrillo Light Keepers Association, Mendocino Area Parks Association and hosting a crew of Americorps workers.
A few updates:
¥ State Parks plans to begin restoring the haul road between Pudding Creek Trestle and Ward Avenue. A public meeting is scheduled in Fort Bragg at Town Hall on Tuesday, Dec. 4 from 5:30 to 7 p.m. to discuss the project and take public input.
¥ According to Rex, blackberry removal on the Mendocino Headlands has made a noticeable difference in eliminating the problem of people sitting behind the Mendocino Presbyterian Church smoking pot. Before they were able to stay hidden amongst the over-growth.
¥ Rex mentioned there is a shift in the homeless population that is creating more problems, such of assault, vandalism and aggression. A public meeting in Mendocino in January will be held to address this situation.
¥ A team of 10 Americorps workers is visiting Mendocino County. They are teaming up with State Parks to perform many tasks, one of which is to update the maps for Montgomery Woods.
As these projects unfold, look for the stories in The Mendocino Beacon.

It really has been a long time coming for Google to launch their Google + "Communities". It's hard to believe that it took them more than a year to come up with their version of the popular Facebook Groups. I personally only use Google+ for business reasons, so I'm especially curious to see how Google+ Communities could help me with that.
Who uses Google+?
For all you Google + skeptics, let's first take a quick look at Google+. Today, it is the fastest-growing social network ever. Over 500 million people have upgraded, 235 million are active across Google and 135 million are active in just the stream.
But who exactly is using it? Is it worth setting up a profile and opening up a community for your business on Google+, is your target audience even there? A very useful site where you can view people's profile's stats as well as analyzing your own is Circle Count.
What are Google+ Communities?
Google+ Communities is, as they say it, for people to "talk about the stuff you're into with people who love it too." It's a place where you can gather together with business owners, your family, friends, whoever you want, have rich conversations, post photos and videos and plan events and explore your common interests, whatever they may be. It is also a great way to meet new, like-minded people that share your interests.
You can choose to create private communities that only you and the friends that you choose to invite can join. Or, you can join public communities, no matter what your interests are. It's a great way to learn new things about the stuff you are passionate about and to meet new people.
So far, so good. However, not much of a difference between the features that Google Communities offers and the Facebook Groups features. It's strange that it took them so long to launch this feature, however in my opinion, Facebook Groups is one of Facebook's most useful features! I find it great when I need to talk to more people at the same time and especially when I want to plan some sort of event . Not to mention how much you can cultivate your knowledge if you join public groups.
It might have taken Google a bit long, but I have to say Google Communities is looking very good. It could be that it was the missing link in their success and their quest to get more people to upgrade from the social media giant, Facebook.
So let's take a look now at how to use it
Once you've created your Google+ profile, on the left-hand side of the screen, as you can see, you can select "Communities" which will take you to this page. If you scroll down, you will see a list of different existing communities that you can join:
Or, if you want to create your own community, simply click on the "create a community" button, from the "Communities" home page. After that, you will be asked if you want to create a public community or a private community:
Select either private or public, and then enter your community's name. I've chosen to make a public community for mine and called it Social Media Marketing. I now have to choose if anyone can join or if a moderator needs to approve users before they join:
Now that my community is created, it's time to make it look good:
As you can see, I can write a tagline, pick a photo for the community, write about it and include some guidelines, and add some discussion categories.
Now it's time to invite people to my community:
And I'm done! Now all I need to do is find more people to talk to and start engaging!
Google+ Communities – an opportunity for businesses?
Google+ Communities could be a great way to get more social media engagement, more traffic to your site, and possibly more customers.
You can use Google+ Communities by creating your own public community, where your customers (and potential customers) can talk about you, your business and your products. You will be able to use this platform to speak directly with your audience, have meaningful conversations and manage your customer care.
But you will also be able to find new people, potential customers that might be interested in you and your business. You can do this by joining different communities where you think your target audience might hang out and by talking to people. This way, you could start new relationships with people that could be genuinely interested in you and what you have to offer. And you can also invite them to your community, where the conversation can be taken even further.
You can even chat face-to-face with your customers with Google Hangouts. It really doesn't get more personal than this (well, at least not in the virtual world):
Final thoughts…
I'm looking forward to see how this new addition is going to affect Google+'s success. Personally I think this is a welcome addition and I'm already starting to see some success from spending time in the communities.
Do you think that now that Google has launched this feature, you are more likely to join Google+ (if you haven't already!) If you have been using Google+, did the absence of Google Communities bother you? Will you start a Community for your business? I'm curious to know – so please leave your comments.

Core Strength for Cyclists and Triathletes
A review of Carmichael Trainings New Training Video. "Core Strength is cheaper
than a gym membership and contains quick routines that will pay dividends come
spring time and racing."
By Stephanie Chase
Being a cyclist who spends more time on the bike that at a gym, Im aware my
approach to fitness is a bit unbalanced. Yoga and Pilates are sporadic
accessories to my training; the majority of my workouts are spent on the
bike. Sit-ups, squats and jumping jacks are relics from junior high gym class.
Unfortunately, Ive fallen off the well-rounded workout wagon and need to get
back on.
For those in a similar position, Carmichael Trainings Core Strength offers a
quick and condensed and intense core strength and flexibility workout. Led by coach Jason
Koop (certified by USA Cycling and US Track and Field), the DVD is broken into
three sections that focus not just on the core but also the abdominal muscles,
the lower back, IT bands, and hamstrings. Each ten minute section (Chris
Carmichaels introduction says for the next forty-five minutes but the total
workout is only thirty-two minutes as presented on the DVD) has exercises that shift the focus around
the body for a balanced approach.
The warm-up sets consists of calisthenics-style, heart-pumping routines
moving into the main, strength building set, and finally into the elongation,
cool-down set with yoga-style poses.
During the winter season when many cyclists are confined indoors, this short
workout is an ideal supplement to break the monotony that can come from hours
spent on trainers and rollers. If youre looking for something more
comprehensive to do instead of the trainer, I would recommend finding another
longer workout or in conjuction with weight lifting or off in conjunction before
or after off day recovery rides. At thirty minutes, this will not supplant
a workout on the bike but can help buttress off-season training and building
core strength to augment your roller and road training.
Don't get the idea that it is an easy 30 minute routine; it is an intense 30
minutes and the first time I did the routine I was sore for three days.
Currently I am doing the routine two two three days a week as part of my
preparation for Spring racing.
If you do decide to purchase this DVD, there a few things to consider. Though
not noted on the exterior or DVD sleeve, the workout requires a medicine ball,
and - ideally - two physio balls. The exercise balls are well worth the
investment and for this routine and to maximize results other exercises. For those of us without a small home gym,
substitutions (either in equipment or exercises) would be convenient.
Additionally, familiarity with yoga and Pilates is beneficial as the moves are
not always given in-depth introductions, so be prepared to rewind to make sure
you duplicate each position and motion.
However, at $29.99 Core Strength is cheaper than a gym membership and
contains quick routines that will pay dividends come spring time and racing.
Go ahead - feel the burn!

NASCAR driver Danica Patrick is channeling Marilyn Monroe in a new series of ads for GoDaddy.com the Super Bowl. Actually, make that two sets of ads. One set is for the CBS censor and the other is unrated for the www.godaddy.com web site.
Danica looks stunning as a raven-haired Marilyn from "The Seven Year Itch," and she also does a wet and wild Jennifer Beals from "Flashdance."
The censor-ready ads were aired briefly on "Inside Edition," but chances are more people will want to watch the unrated ones!
Danica drew a huge crowd to Glendale in December last year for the filming of the "Seven Year Itch" spot.
Of course, in the original scene, Marilyn Monroe's dress blows up as she stands over a subway grate.

Learn more about the butterflies that live at the Prairie Nature Center. Explore the beautiful pictures then click on the common name once find out more information each of these 15 different butterflies. Click on the common name a second time to close the information window.
Summer Azure
celastrina neglecta
This small blue butterfly is similar to the slightly smaller spring azure and has distinctive brilliant blue dorsal wing surfaces. It is typically found near mud puddles or animal scat. The larvae feed on dogwoods, wild cherry and wingstem.
cercyonis pegala
This common butterfly has eye spots on the forewings. Wood-nymphs in this area typically lack the yellow color that is found in other regions. It bounces in flight similar to the wood-satyr but rarely flies into wooded areas. The larval hosts of the wood-nymph are various grasses.
Clouded Sulphur
colias philodice
Sulphurs are related to whites such as the cabbage butterfly. They are generally yellow and larvae feed on legumes. Males have a narrow, dark dorsal outer wing margin, whereas females have a wider margin broken up by spots. They rarely hold their wings open when nectaring or basking.
danaus plexippus
The monarch is the longest lived butterfly in Ohio. The autumn adults can love for more than 10 months and migrate great distances. Monarch larvae feed on milkweeds. Toxins found in milkweed make the adults unpalatable to predators. The brilliant orange color serves as a warning to predators to avoid them.
Wild Indigo Duskywing
erynnis baptisiae
The common name comes from the native host plant for the larvae, an uncommon prairie plant Baptisia lactea which can be found in the Prairie Nature Center. It also thrives on the alien crown vetch which is frequently planted along roadsides for erosion control. Adults typically feed on blackberry, clover, dogbane, and sunflowers.
Eastern Tailed Blue
everes comyntas
Being established in all over Ohio, the eastern tailed blue is one of the state's most common members of the family. Lycaenidae, which includes harvesters, coppers, hairstreaks, and blues. Despite having a projection from the hindwing, this is not a hairstreak. The larvae of the eastern tailed blue feed on legumes such as bush cover or partridge pea.
Cecropia Moth
hyalophora cecropia
The cecropia is one of the largest moths in North America. Larvae typically feed on trees and shrubs including maple, cherry, and birch. Adults do not feed. Their sole purpose is to make and lay eggs. Attracted by chemical pheromones released by the females, males can fly for miles in order to find a mate.
junonia coenia
The buckeye is not a resident
limenitis archippus
The viceroy is a mimic, having evolved a pattern nearly identical to the monarch. This allows it to have some protection from predators that have learned to avoid monarchs. It is distinguished by the narrow black bar across the middle of the hindwing. It is often found near willow and poplar, which host the larvae.
Bronze Copper
lycaena hyllus
The males have bronze colored dorsal forewings and the females have orange dorsal forewings with black spots. The bronze copper is not as common as it once was. The larvae of the bronze copper feed on water dock and curled dock.
Black Swallowtail
papilio polyxenes
Found all over the state except in heavily forested areas. Summer brooding females may have different colors than the spring brood; often causing misidentification. The larvae feed on members of the parsley family such as wild parsnip and queen anne's lace.
Pearl Crescent
phyciodes tharos
The pearl crescent is almost
Cabbage White
pieris rapae
The cabbage white is an alien specie that was introduced in Quebec in 1860. It has since spread across North America. Currently, out most common butterfly, it is one of the few in our area that will fly on overcast days. The larvae feed on garden cabbage and other members of the plant family Brassicaceae.
Question Mark
polygonia interrogationis
The name of this specie comes from the silver markings on the center of the its ventral hindwing which looks like a question mark. They can live to be eight months old. There are different colorations between the summer and autumn broods. The larvae feed on nettles, elms, and hackberry.
American Painted Lady
vanessa virginiensis
The painted lady is a resident of Oho and has been noted in ever county. It is easily identifiable by the lark circular eye-like markings on its ventral hindwings. Mature butterflies nectar on dogbane and milkweeds; the larvae feed on sweet everlasting, pussy-toes, and burdock.


text: The pilot stated that he departed the Haller Airpark for a local flight. The flight was 25 minutes in duration. On approach to runway 18, he came in short, and was trying to extend his glide path to clear an asphalt road that had been laid the week prior. He added engine power, but did not have enough power to clear the road, and stalled the airplane at the approach end of the runway. The airplane subsequently hit hard, bounced, and landed on the nose wheel, causing the airplane to flip over. After the accident, he recalled that he had forgotten to advance the propeller pitch control, leaving him with, "not enough power to land." The pilot stated there were no mechanical failures or malfunctions to the airplane or any of its systems prior to the accident.

Medical Gases
Medical Gases and their associated equipment are widely used for treating patients in hospitals, at home, and by the emergency services.
BCGA member companies are licensed to manufacture and distribute the medical gases used within the UK and provide a range of associated equipment and services. Within BCGA, all aspects of medical gases are managed by Technical Sub-Committee (TSC) 7.
All Medical Gases and some of the associated equipment used are highly regulated by European Directives and UK legislation. The gases are classified as medicinal products for administration to a patient and the associated equipment is classified as a medical device when used to administer the gas.
Although medical gases are very similar to other non-medical gases; like other medicinal products they need to have a Marketing Authorisation (product licence) in order to be sold. The Marketing Authorisation defines when a gas can be used and how it should be administered to a patient. Only these medical gases with an appropriate licence should be prescribed for the treatment of patients
Note: Medical gases are not to be used for non-medical purposes, other than a power source for medical equipment.
As with all medicines, medical gases have a defined shelf life which is specified within the relevant Marketing Authorisation. Each cylinder will have a label that will show the expiry date as well as the batch number of the medicinal product. Do not use medical gases once this shelf life has expired; upon expiry the cylinder should be replaced.
Some equipment such as medical gas regulators, demand valves and medical gas flow meters, that are associated with the use of medical gases, are classified as medical devices. European Medical Devices Directives 93/42/EC (as amended) covers the placing on the market and the putting into service of medical devices. Medical devices carry a CE marking that is the manufacturer's declaration that the equipment complies with the essential requirements of the relevant Medical Devices Directive.
The Medicines and Healthcare products Regulatory Agency (MHRA) is the Executive Agency of the Department of Health which protects and promotes public health and patient safety by ensuring that medicines, healthcare products and medical equipment meet appropriate standards of safety, quality, performance and effectiveness, and are used safely.
Any organisation that wishes to manufacture medical gases must have a Manufacturers Authorisation issued by the MHRA to manufacture medical gases. They are required to comply with the basic principles and practices of Good Manufacturing Practice (GMP) and Good Distribution Practice (GDP) as laid down in the European Guidelines.
Any organisation that wishes to provide and distribute medical gases must have a Wholesale Dealer's Authorisation issued by the MHRA and is required to comply with the basic principles and practices of Good Distribution Practice.
Any organisation that wishes to manufacture medical devices must conform to the requirements laid down in the relevant Medical Device Regulations and must be registered with the MHRA or another European competent authority.
All Medical Gas Pipeline Systems (MGPS) and Dental Air and Vacuum Systems (DAVS), which includes vacuum systems, are to be compliant with the standards required by the Department of Health. Compliance is required, for example, with:
a. Health Technical Memorandum (HTM)
02 - Medical Gas Pipeline Systems
(1) Part A, Design, Installation, Validation and Verification.
(2) Part B, Operational Management.
b. HTM-2022 Supplements:
(1) Dental Compressed Air and Vacuum.
(2) Medical Gas Systems for Ambulances.
(3) Pressure Systems Safety Regulations.
All staff who are required to handle or use gases are to be appropriately trained in the safe handling of the gases as well as any associated equipment.
The primary objective of BCGA TSC7 is to safeguard patients by ensuring that all products provided by BCGA member companies are safe to use and fit for their intended purpose. This is achieved by promoting safety, producing best practice guidance, liaising with the MHRA and other government departments and participating in relevant standard work.
One particular concern has been the safe use of medical oxygen, especially when used in the domiciliary environment.
WARNING: The careless use of medical oxygen, especially in a confined space, can result in oxygen enrichment of that space, leading to an increased risk of fire. Do not smoke or use naked flames close to oxygen. The BCGA also advise against the use of electronic cigarettes, or other electronic devices such as mobile phones, whilst undergoing oxygen therapy as they are a potential source of ignition.
Those interested in medical gases and their associated equipment should consult the minutes of TSC7 located in the members area. Amongst others, the following documents are available within the publications section. Many are free to download:
- Guidance Note 2 - Guidance for the storage of gas cylinders in the workplace.
This document defines the principles of safe practice for the storage of gases in cylinders and cylinder bundles.
- Guidance Note 26 - Medical gas cylinders. Selection and maintenance of seals used on high pressure cylinders.
Provides information on best practice for users of medical gas cylinders when they are connecting approved medical equipment to gas cylinders.
- L 7 - The dangers of industrial gas abuse.
BCGA would like the general public and, particularly, the media, to be better aware of the dangers of fooling around with gases.
- TIS 6 - Cylinder identification. Colour coding and labelling requirements.
A guide to the colour coding system used to identify gas cylinders and an explanation of some of the content of a gas cylinder label.
- TIS 14 - Safety precautions and risk management when dealing with domiciliary oxygen incidents.
This document provides guidance to the Medical Oxygen Homecare Service Provider supplying oxygen to either Healthcare Service facilities or to patients at home and to the Emergency Services (predominantly the Fire Service but also to the Ambulance Service) to assist in the preparation of their own procedures related to dealing with domiciliary oxygen incidents.
- TIS 20 - Medical gas cylinders: BCGA policy statement on colour coding.
This document sets out the BCGA policy for the colours used to paint a medical gas cylinder, for both the body and the shoulder, to assist in the identification of the gas within, and discuses the conversion program in place to implement the changes required.
- TIS 21 - Medical gas cylinders: BCGA policy statement on valve outlets.
This document details the BCGA policy, agreed with the MHRA, on rationalising the number of different valve outlets available for medical gases to minimise the risk of administering the wrong gas to a patient and discuses the conversion program in place to implement the changes required.

What Women Want In Relationships (1 Peter 3:7)Tye Riter, February 13, 2011
Part 1 of a 3 part series on What Women, Men and God want in Relationships. In Part 1, Pastor Tye looks at God's guidelines for men to meet women's needs. Concentrating on 1 Peter 3:7, he examines what it means to "live in an understanding way" and how to "honor" women. He also tackles the question, "What does the Bible mean by calling the woman a 'weaker vessel'?"
1 Peter 3:7
7 Likewise, husbands, live with your wives in an understanding way, showing honor to the woman as the weaker vessel, since they are heirs with you of the grace of life, so that your prayers may not be hindered. (ESV)

As you may have noticed, my little bit of the web has been quiet in the last few days. I want to assure you that no, I did not give up on things, but I have had a bit of an increase in activity in my real life (as opposed to my online one). I have many friends and family that are coming to visit me on the west coast in the coming week and a half, and because this doesn't happen very often, I want to be able to devote all non-day-job hours strictly to them. What's more, since I'm taking a few days off work (and my work-days are generally my posting days), it would make maintaining a posting schedule just that much harder.
So in short, although my blog is very important to me, it's also very important to me that I'm able to prioritize the many commitments I have in my life. And when something special comes up, like your whole entire family coming out for a long and relaxing visit!, I think it's fair to call for a break. I'll still be floating around the web, reading articles and posts here and there, but you likely won't hear from me until February 27th. I'm on vacation!

The aircraft is equipped with dual electronic ignition instead of magnetos. After leveling off on top, the pilot noticed that his panel indicated a loss of electrical power. After the battery was depleted, the engine quit and the aircraft descended into IMC conditions. After breaking out, he initiated a forced landing. The aircraft struck a berm and slid to a stop. The pilot stated that the alternator switch was on and that the alternator out warning light had not illuminated prior to his electrical loss. After recovery, the batteries were charged and the engine was started. When the alternator switch was moved to the off position, the alternator out warning light did not illuminate. The continuity of the light bulb was confirmed. The light socket failed a similar continuity check. The flight instructor who checked the pilot out in the aircraft reported that he did not always use the checklist and had forgotten to turn the alternator switch on before starting on several occasions.
The National Transportation Safety Board determines the probable cause(s) of this accident to be:

Spy vs. open source searcher
The U.S. State Department effort last month to issue a travel ban on 12 Iranians suspected of supporting that nation's nuclear program wasn't big news at first. Shortly thereafter, it was revealed that the analysis supporting the ban was provided not by the CIA, but by a single junior analyst using Google searches.
The lesson? Advanced technology and Web-savvy citizenry now make it possible for open source information gathering to rival, if not surpass, the clandestine intelligence produced by government agencies.
