The Food & Society Series
So seemingly mundane, food lies at the heart of the human experience. From the farm to the fork, food takes on social significance far outweighing the scholarly attention it receives. This sampling of speakers, films, and artifacts is intended to draw attention to some of the complex issues facing our societyand to whet the appetite for conversations to comeabout what we eat, how we eat, and how our food is procured.

Palladium Concert Contest Winners Announced
Dan from Azusa, CA
So many of John Fogerty's songs are nothing less than brilliant. You know that when you listen to them for the first time and every song feels like you've always had that song in your collective memory. Why, because Fogerty's songs are archetypical in nature. He taps into our collective subconscious and we respond because we are able to get something from his music that reaches deep into our souls and remains a part of our being.
Truth be told, my husband, son, and I love so much of Fogerty's work; every song on the album "Revival" is brilliant and like classical music of Mozart, it's deceptive in what at first appears a simple lyric or musical phrase, but it's really true genius at work to make it seem so natural at what is not really a simple thing to do… write lyrics and music that appear effortless and yet are deep, thoughtful, and musically sophisticated on a deep level.
While I may not win the tickets (for my husband) to John's concert in LA next week, it's a pleasure to have the opportunity to convey just how important I think John Fogerty is to the music world. In these difficult times, it's without reservation that I turn to music to get me through days that are filled with complications and stress.
Please tell Fogerty his audience is listening, always, and we care very deeply about his music.
By May 4th, 1970 my father was fully involved in student activism and was on the field that fateful day when the National Guard fired on students and activists. One of my Dad's close friends, Alan Canfora, was shot in the wrist that day (he is the man holding the black flag on the field that day, a very famous picture) and changed my Dad's life completely. Without "Fortunate Son" and other anti-war songs such as Country Joe's "Fish Cheer," my Dad would not have had such a direct influence to do something about the war, and ultimately get involved in the music business later on down the road.
Fast forward to a few years ago when the Iraq war started and I began stealing my Dad's CSNY, Country Joe, and most importantly CCR records, with "Fortunate Son" immediately standing out as one of my favorites. I had no idea about my father's activist past or his presence at the Kent State shootings. It was something he had never talked about with me before. One day, he came in to my room when I was listening to "Fortunate Son" and started to mention how it was his favorite Fogerty tune and began to tell me some of those stories from his past. The stories were so moving that it was the first stepping stone of me following in his footsteps, joining a local anti-war protest group and ultimately following his footsteps in the music business.
"Fortunate Son" was an incredibly large part of both my life and and my father's, and was the impetus for both of us pursuing music as a way of life and to protest unjust war efforts by the country we live in and love. I have never seen John Fogerty live, and neither has my father, and although he is just appearing as part of the Sound City Players show, it would be incredible to just hear him play even one song and bring my Dad along to the show to have that experience with him.
"Fortunate Son" has become such a massive influence on both my father and I that I cannot think of a single song that embodies what my favorite song of all time would be better than that one.
Thanks again for taking the time to read this and putting this contest together. I love it when artists do great things for their fans and Dave Grohl is awesome for bringing John Fogerty in to this! Can't wait to see the documentary either!

TV actress Kavita Kaushik, popular as Haryanvi cop Chandramukhi Chautala in "F.I.R.", has quit the show and she has been replaced by Chitrashi Rawat of "Chak De! India" fame.
The comedy show will take a 20-year leap and after the shift Jwalamukhi Chautala, daughter of Chandramukhi Chautala, played by Chitrashi, will become the central character.
"I am truly honoured to be part of the show and moreover to play the successor of Chandramukhi. My role is that of a sweet, shy bespectacled girl who turns into a super woman when she sees atrocities against women," said Chitrashi who played Komal Chautala in the hit movie "Chak De! India". She also featured in "Fashion".
And what about the pressure that comes with the replacement?
"Kavita did an excellent job in 'F.I.R.'. I don't think I would be able to match up to her, but yes, I am here to do what I feel is good. I am not the one who is going to follow someone's footstep. I will be myself in the character," she told IANS.
Talking about shifting her base to TV, she said: "It depends on the scripts."
She feels that she is not cut out for 'saas bahu' shows and wants to do TV shows "which can reflect my personality".
"It's been six years since I played Komal, but for me that was just the trailer. My full role of Komal will now be seen in 'F.I.R.'," she added.
Is she like her character in real life too?
"In real life, I am not exactly like my on-screen character. I am truly aware of my feminine side and I like dressing up and do what any girl would love to do," she said.
The new storyline in "F.I.R", produced by Edit 2 Production, will be seen from March 16 on SAB TV.

Dear Readers,
Well I wish her the best of luck. But I am going to severely miss Kavita and her chemistry with all the other actors.
never imagined F.I.R without kavita... hope u do well.. nd i wll miss GOPI, gulgule and billu badly... they are just awesome
Gonna miss Gopi, Gulgule. billu and Pandeyji on FIR...
I hope Chitrashi will do a good job!
I think they should end FIR now that Kavita is not there!!!!
cc was the best yaar!
ok all the best to Chitrashi but then what about gopi,gulgule,n my fav. billu?
Kavita was brilliant as CC! Will really miss her! But all the best to this new season of FIR!
Kavita was brilliant as Miss. Chautala. I wish Chitrashi all the best but it's going to be a tough ask for her to take forward Kavita's legacy. Gotta say though, Season 1 of FIR was by far the best. Loved the chemistry between Shiv Pandit (Makkhan Singh) and Kavita Kaushik. After his departure the show kinda lost its charm. But Good luck for the future Kavita! :)
And wht about Gopi,Gulgule??r they staying in d show or not!!by d way kavita is d best...

Posted by Jimmy T. on 20th Mar 2014
This is a perfect size pot for my haversack and for cooking. It works great for Tea & Coffee , the little cheap bags of pasta and even rice just add a little more water because of the spout. This pot cooks nice and is a generous size. My favorite ,Potato soup take three Potatoes cubed one onion diced a little bit of butter if you have it or just chicken bullion one cube and salt and pepper enough water to cover ,some game meat if you have it or not its a great meal when it's cold at night sittin by the fire or a hot Coffee or Tea the kid in me loves a cup of Hot Chocolate too! I think anyone would like this pot if they use it the construction is tough thick aluminum heavy bail nice handles cooks great suspended or in the fire the handles get hot so use your bandana when you take it from the fire, it's a very nice product I first saw it on you tube at the Four Dog Stove site I personally like it a lot I also ordered the larger one to try.
Posted by My son calls me Dad on 12th Nov 2013
I purchased this pot for the purpose of using it with my SVEA123R stove as a brew kit for making coffee in the park with my son. Despite the illnesses that aluminum can do, which by the way only is applicable with acidic foods/liquids but for just boiling water this is fine. My aim was to achieve a nostalgic look. The SVEA123R fits perfectly inside. Also, inside this,I included a GSI mug, a small bic lighter, a smaller than normal stainless steel teaspoon, and 2 coffee sacks for the ground coffee. It does not close all the way because of the GSI mug, there is a .25" gap but that's fine, since the whole set up is packed inside a mesh sack which is packed inside a small Swedish military surplus gas mask pouch (11" H x 7" W/top x 5" W/bottom)wherein I put a small bag that carries the coffee, tea, sugar, creamer, and some soup stock packets just to add variety. Otherwise without the GSI mug, it seals shut without any gaps.
This pot is well made, clean of any defects. Though it does leak at the rivets which some say will stop after constant use. Odd to think that you're buying a BRAND NEW LEAKING POT. One thing I don't see, under the pot there is NO "Made in USA" stamp. Hurts my pride. If it had that stamp, I would have given it 5 stars despite the leak. What a shame.

'Microsoft' scam targets Jacksonville customers
Updated On: Jun 14 2012 05:42:54 AM EDT
Microsoft said scammers are using the company's name to convince people to give them money or personal information.
Most of the cybercriminals target users by email, but according to Microsoft, some scammers are using the telephone to bait potential victims.
Microsoft customer Nancy Waters said one of the cyber-scammers contacted her. She said she received a call from a very pushy man claiming to be from Microsoft telling her she had a virus on her computer.
"He wanted to get into our computer system. He said he could walk us through it or we could let him in," said Waters.
According to Microsoft's website, Waters is victim to one of the company's common scams. Other scams include telling people they have won the "Microsoft Lottery," that the company requires credit card information to validate your copy of Windows or the scammers will send unsolicited email messages with attached security updates.
Chistopher Hamer, a computer expert said scammers target companies too. They are after contact information that may be in computer systems.
"They can continue to sell you software or charge you to fix something that was never broken in the first place. They'll talk you into a subscription that you don't need for software that does you no good," said Hamer.
Microsoft said their company does not make unsolicited phone calls to help fix computers or send unsolicited emails about security updates. The company also said there is not a "Microsoft Lottery," and customers should delete the message. Finally, Microsoft does not require any credit card information to validate a customer's copy of windows.

EDMONTON — Many parishes suffer from a fragmented approach to evangelization where one person or group is handed the responsibility to evangelize.
For Catherine Ecker, that's not good enough. All disciples of Jesus are called to be people who evangelize and bring the Good News into every strata of humanity.

EDMONTON — Just over two years ago, Brian (who didn't want his last name to be used) got his own home through the city's Rapid Exit Program. But the formerly homeless man said he would have to return to living in the river valley if it wasn't for the support of his church.
Brian, 60, maintains that giving a homeless person a home is not enough. "When I got housed in my home, I didn't know how to go into the community. I didn't know how to talk to people. I didn't know how to make friends. I didn't know how to be a neighbour."
VATICAN CITY — Pope Benedict appealed for a suspension of fighting in Libya and the immediate start of a serious dialogue aimed at restoring peace to the North African country.
Speaking at his weekly blessing March 27, the pope said he was increasingly concerned at the news from Libya, where rebels supported by U.S. and European airstrikes have battled the forces of Libyan leader Moammar Gadhafi.
The ongoing nuclear plant disaster in Japan raises not only environmental and health issues, but ethical questions about energy use and the future of nuclear power, according to Catholic scholars and other ethicists.
Questions about the safety, cost-effectiveness and long-term prospects for nuclear power are familiar to Bob McKeon, associate director of the Office for Social Justice of the Edmonton Archdiocese.
Those who choose the priesthood should know they are accepting a lifestyle with considerable built-in discipline, says the rector of St. Joseph's Seminary.
"A man entering the seminary says 'yes' to Christ and 'no' to all kinds of things," Father Shayne Craig told men discerning their priestly vocation March 26.
EDMONTON - About 20 prayer warriors, in support of the 40 Days for Life campaign, stood across the street from Edmonton's abortion clinic, praying for an end to abortion.
Edmonton is one of many cities across North America joining the year's largest coordinated pro-life mobilization. Forty Days for Life is a focused, pro-life effort that consists of prayer and fasting, peaceful vigil and community outreach.
EDMONTON — The chronically homeless tenants of Canora Place do not fit a stereotype.
Some are recovering from a divorce or job loss, while others have struggled with addictions, domestic violence or mental illness. At least 60 per cent have aboriginal ancestry.
EDMONTON — Like Hannah, the faithful woman of the Bible, "put your faith in the person of Jesus Christ. It is the only thing that will ever, ever bring ultimate change," says evangelist Will Graham.
"Jesus said, 'Come, follow me.' He didn't say, 'Come, follow my followers but come, follow me.'"
TORONTO — Spiritan Father Michael Troy, founding father and principal at Toronto's Neil McNeil High School, had an untraditional way of thinking, said Father Gerald FitzGerald.
"There was a rapport, a relationship and a casualness between the priest-teachers and the boys that did not exist elsewhere and that was the unique spirit of Neil McNeil," said FitzGerald, a fellow Spiritan who was a seminarian under Troy in Dublin and a science teacher at Neil McNeil.
LVIV, UKRAINE — The Ukrainian Catholic Church elected its youngest bishop to succeed Cardinal Lubomyr Husar of Kyiv-Halych, who retired Feb. 10.
Archbishop Sviatoslav Shevchuk, 40, apostolic administrator of the Ukrainian Catholic Diocese of the Protection of the Mother of God in Buenos Aires, Argentina, was elected head of the Ukrainian Catholic Church during a five-day synod of bishops in Lviv.

Albert Wesker's voice actor answers 35 fan questions
He might not have invented the voice, but D.C. Douglas's Albert Wesker was likely the most memorable part of Resident Evil 5. He has provided the David Bowie-esque voice of the recurring antagonist since Resident Evil: The Umbrella Chronicles, most recently in Resident Evil: The Mercenaries 3D. But since Wesker was killed off in Resident Evil 5, it's a mystery whether Douglas will ever get to voice him in any future Resident Evil games if the canon story moves forward.
Perhaps that's part of the reason why Douglas agreed to answer a slew of questions in an "ultimate, complete and final interview" posted on YouTube. That's pretty awesome, considering many voice actors can get huge egos after a few roles.
Douglas has to duck out of several questions due to lawyers and their mystical law powers, but he still manages to talk about what it's like to act, his idea for a Wesker spin-off, and his discovery of the yaoi (man-on-man love) community around Wesker and series protagonist Chris Redfield. It's always fun to see how people handle their characters being put in those situations by crazy fans.

Posts tagged: Clay Starbuck
Clay Starbuck's children say a no-contact order imposed by Superior Court Judge Greg Sypolt is an "attempt by the state to tear apart our family."
Blake Starbuck, 19, issued a statement Friday saying they will fight the order that stops convicted murderer Clay Starbuck from contacting his three minor children until he has a mental health evaluation. Starbuck may contact his oldest children, Blake and Austin, 22.
Starbuck was convicted of aggravated first-degree murder and sexually violating human remains in connection with the December 2011 slaying of his wife, 42-year-old Chanin Starbuck. In an unexpected twist during Starbuck's sentencing, prosecutor Larry Steinmetz asked Sypolt to enforce a no-contact order.
Starbuck will serve life in prison without the possibility of parole.
Twelve-year-old Marshal Starbuck was called to testify about the death of his mom and what he remembers about the actions of Clay Starbuck on the day Marshal's life got turned upside down.
Day two of the first-degree murder trial of Clay D. Starbuck also featured photos from the crime scene. The jury for the first time saw how the killer placed 42-year-old Chanin D. Starbuck in a sexually suggestive position.
Based on a brief 911 call on Dec. 1, 2011, investigators believe someone killed the Chanin Starbuck on that day.
Clay Starbuck, who called Crime Check to check on his ex-wife on Dec. 2, told investigators that he texted his ex-wife to take their youngest three children to school after his balky 1988 Toyota Tercel broke down on Dec. 1.
Steinmetz asked 12-year-old Marshal about that day, and he relayed the same story as his father.
He said Chanin Starbuck took them to school that day "because our dad was driving around the golf course to warm it up because it has some problems," Marshal said. "It always broke down. Honestly, it was a really bad car."
A Deer Park man accused of strangling his ex-wife and posing her dead body had her death certificate displayed in his home when detectives arrested him this week, detectives say.
Clay Duane Starbuck, 47, is charged with aggravated first-degree murder and sexually violating human remains in the death of Chanin Denice Starbuck, 42. Prosecutors are not seeking the death penalty. The only other punishment if convicted of aggravated first-degree murder is life in prison without the possibility of parole.
Starbuck, a former Alaska oil worker with no criminal history, appeared in Spokane County Superior Court Friday afternoon via video from the jail after prosecutors formally charged him Thursday. He remains in jail on $1 million bond.

Feb. 9: 911 dispatcher broke protocol in homicide call
A Deer Park mother of five found strangled to death in her home was positioned in a way to humiliate her and make detectives believe she had been sexually assaulted, according to information released Tuesday.
Clay Duane Starbuck, 47, is accused of murdering his ex-wife, Chanin Denice Starbuck, 42, after luring her from her home with their children, then breaking in and hiding until she returned, detectives wrote in a warrant that was used to search the suspect's home at 1625 E. 2nd St. Monday night. Investigators seized dozens of items, including cameras, documents, computers and a cell phone.
Starbuck, a former oil worker in Alaska with no criminal history, was arrested Monday morning during a traffic stop in Deer Park. He remains in jail on $1 million bond after appearing in Spokane County Superior Court this afternoon on charges of aggravated first-degree murder and first-degree burglary. He's prohibited from contacting his children, who are witnesses in the case. Spokane County sheriff's officials say the children are staying with a close family friend.

STDs: one of the most horrifying dangers in the real world that can happen to anybody.
STDs in horror movies: one of the most horrifying dangers of the real world that really should be explored further.
Quick Plot: Twentysomething Sam isn't in the best life place. Her sexy Australian girlfriend Nikki has become distant, her conservative mother is nagging, a past drug problem is cautiously haunting her, and a letter of acceptance for a competitive flower growing contest (go with it) hasn't arrived in the mail. Such stress rends her easy prey to a lurking party crasher who passes her a mysterious red solo cup before committing date rape in the backseat of his car.
Despite her green thumb, nothing is coming up roses for poor Sam.
Things for from bad to really, really, super really did I say REALLY? terrible once Sam discovers signs of an infection. What starts as a rash and untimely vaginal bleeding quickly escalates into loose teeth, bloodshot eyeballs, ringing ears, and...well, let's just say that actress Najarra Townsend is a very pretty young woman.
Samantha three days into an unnamed sexually transmitted disease is...
Absolutely horrifying.
Written and directed by Eric England, Contracted is a short and incredibly focused spin on body horror. As Sam, Townsend occupies virtually every frame of the film and she equips herself quite well by not playing the part as a wounded ingenue. Samantha is confused, having recently identified herself as a lesbian only to find her greatest love slipping away. Avoiding any flashbacks or straight exposition, it's up to the audience to piece her life together and England's rather subtle choices make that (for the most part) quite easy and natural. We don't need to hear about a drug addiction when a few trail marks tell us the same, just as Nkki's boredom with Sam is obvious from her performance, not dialog. Such developments demonstrate England to be quite a promising young filmmaker in being able to give us content without the obvious.
Also, yuck.
Viral horror is rife with potential when it comes to genre cinema. In the case of Contracted, the film is so carefully grounded in the specifics of Samantha's life that every fingernail falloff is felt. Yes, Samantha makes some of the dumbest decisions ever found in film, but once we see where her relationship with Nikki has gone, they make sense. Despite her youth, Sam sees Nikki as the only worthwhile aspect of her life and to actively seek help for her infection would reveal that she was, in her mind, unfaithful.
Contracted never acknowledges the fact that Sam was raped, but perhaps that's part of its point. Sam is so ashamed of what happened to her while binge drinking that she convinces herself to ignore what is obviously a serious, serious issue.
See what I mean?
Running less than 80 minutes in length, Contracted tells a quick, simple story with a neat amount of underlying subtext. England makes the most of a small budget by focusing his energy so carefully on one character. Perhaps the film could have pushed harder, but as a first effort from England, it's a good start.
High Points
Best known to most of us as The Texas Chainsaw Massacre 2's Stretch, Caroline Williams puts in a wonderful supporting performance as Sam's judgmental (but deep down, rather loving) mom. It's a wonderful coup for horror fans to see her here, but the fact that she handles the role with such personality makes it a win all around
Low Points
There's something a little disappointing about the ending of Contracted in that (ambiguous spoiler), it ultimately closes on such a simple 'horror movie' note
Lessons Learned
Shots solve everything!
No, they actually don't
Condoms. Really, truly, seriously, absolutely: condoms
Look! It's-
Greendale College's Dungeons & Dragons champion himself, Fat Neil!
Now streaming on Netflix, Contracted is a fresh little film that makes for a solid, and very yucky watch. It will be exciting to see what else Eric England can do in the future with more resources in his arsenal. In the meantime, we'll just enjoy (and shudder at) this one.

February 01, 2006
Maia Szalavitz
The New York Times thinks it has the answer
The New York Times is hyping fears about teen sex again, this time in relation to a review of the research conducted for the government, which attempted to look at the connection between teen sexual activity and exposure to explicit media.
Unfortunately, the Times article implies that the research suggests that exposure to explicit content increases sexual behavior, saying that if it were to "hazard a guess based on clear evidence that media representations influence teenage eating, smoking and drinking habits, adolescents are almost certainly affected — negatively — by sexual references and images."
Many would argue—as we have here—that the evidence suggesting causal links between media exposure and those factors are not so "clear."
One main reason is that the studies done in this area are rarely experimental: they most often simply look at teens' reported media exposure and correlate it with their accounts of their behavior. Describing one survey, the Times said:
"[It] showed that watching TV with sexual content artificially aged the children: those who watched more than average behaved sexually as though they were 9 to 17 months older and watched only average amounts. Twelve-year-olds who watched the most behaved sexually like 14- and 15-year-olds who watched the least."
But couldn't the causal connection go the other direction? Teens who experience early puberty, for example, may be both more likely to be interested in sexual content and to become sexually active earlier. Or, children of parents who don't supervise the amount and content of their media exposure may be more likely to get in trouble in general? One certainly cannot conclude from a survey that TV "aged" these children in any way!
The article also noted that teen sexual activity has declined in recent years—while saying that sexual content on TV "is pervasive and increasing." This alone suggests that TV may not be a very important factor.
Further, the piece quoted from an article that accompanied the publication of the review in the journal Pediatrics: "Many parents and some physicians underestimate the negative and lifelong impact of early sexual activity."
But again, what's the cause and what is the effect? Certainly, to take another example, we know that children who are sexually abused by adults are more likely to become sexually active with their peers at younger ages.
If the author of the article means that sexual abuse is bad for kids, there's little doubt about that. But if he means that kids who have sex early with peers are damaged by it, isn't he missing the point if the reason that they have sex early is because they have previously been sexually abused?
This is a very complex subject and it is done little justice—just like the debate over the impact of TV violence—when causation and correlation are not carefully discussed.

Hey ladies, sorry to be a Debbie Downer today, maybe I'm having one of those mood swings pregnancy is none for, but someone just said to me that I'm starting to "look like" somebody's momma. They went on to explain that it's just the pregnancy and the way that I'm carrying myself for example how I talk to/treat my students. I don't know why but it really hurt my feelings. Like how do I "look" like someones mom? I was already feeling frumpy and disgusting.....this just made it worse :-(
|Thu, 10-04-2012 - 5:26pm
Awwww...I'm sure they meant it in a positive way! Maybe they noticed your nurturing side really coming through lately and meant it in that respect.
I saw your baby bump picture and you sure don't look frumpy in any way....you're one hip mama!!!
|Thu, 10-04-2012 - 11:56pm
Try not to take it personally, some people just say things that don't make any sense! And I agree with the others... you look super cute in your picture!!
|Fri, 10-05-2012 - 11:17am
Thanks everyone! I was probably just being super sensitive at the moment. My husband claims thats been happening alot lately. Lol! I spend alot of time (and money) trying to keep myself up. I'm the type of person that gets fully dressed to go grocery shopping, so anything about my appearance I tend to take super personal.
I guess I should'e taken it as a compliment. After all...I AM someones mom

Earlier in the week, we talked about Phil Hughes and his need for a put away pitch. In that article, I mentioned that his fastball wasn't good enough to get by on its own. There are a few different reasons for that, though, and they are all intertwined.
As outlined previously, Hughes has had somewhat of an over-reliance on the pitch, especially in 2012; the pitch has good-but-not-great velocity, and is fairly straight; and he has good control but poor command of the pitch.
If he only had one or two of these issues, it would be far less of a problem. However, combining all three spells trouble. A pitcher can rely heavily on his fastball, if it is overpowering or if he has pinpoint control. He can get by with catching too much of the plate if he has great velocity. And he can be successful with decent velocity if he locates the pitch well. Hughes, though, has not been able to excel in any of those areas, so his shortfalls in each of them are compounding on each other.
If he adds a good breaking pitch, as discussed in the previous article, he might be able to get by with his fastball where it is. It will still cause trouble, but it could at least be somewhat limited. But either way, he needs to find a way to improve his command.
Hughes has been able to throw his fastball for strikes, but he has not thrown QUALITY strikes. Here are his fastball heat maps from last season (courtesy of Fangraphs):
That's a TON of pitches near the middle of the plate and relatively few near the corners. Major League hitters love to see pitches in those areas of the plate. In fact, they love it so much that they were offering at Phil's fastball 52.74% of the time – the second highest swing rate of any starter who threw at least 500 four seamers last year.
Hitters were jumping out of their shoes to swing at his fastball last year, and with good cause: when they made contact, the ball was going a long way, yielding a .470 SLG and .211 ISO, both career highs (as in bad for Hughes). If Phil threw harder, he might have been able to get away with that kind of command. Unfortunately, he doesn't have overpowering velocity.
Hughes' fastball ranged from 86 mph to 95.6 mph last year, sitting at 92 mph on average. There's nothing wrong with that – 92 mph is slightly above league average for starting pitchers and there are plenty of hurlers who live in the low 90s successfully. But they do so with either stellar command or good complimentary pitches.
Matt Cain, for instance, has averaged 91.8 mph over his career, but has mixed in a good slider and change-up to keep hitters guessing. It was the other pitches that were key to his success. If relied as heavily on his fastball as Hughes does, he likely wouldn't be as successful.
And then there's Jeremy Hellickson. He averaged 91.3 mph on his fastball last year but his wFA (runs above or below average for a particular pitch) was 2.8 where Hughes' was at 0.2. This is largely because Hellickson painted the corners and yielded a .384 SLG and .135 ISO. He did have a 10.6% BB% on his fastball where Hughes was at 6.0%, but he was able to overcome those additional walks largely by preventing hitters from driving his fastball for extra bases. This could end up being somewhat of a double-edged sword for Hellickson in the future, as the walks could come back to bite him eventually. Still, it's probably safer to issue a few walks by painting the corners than it is to surrender homers by leaving the ball up and over the plate.
If Phil is ever to become more than a league-average starter, improving his fastball command would be a big step in the right direction.

The PRIDE is an integral part of staying "connected" to the school, teachers, and programs that effect your child's education. Please come out and get involved. Through the work of many hands is a heavy load made light. It is our goal to make the educational experience for our children the best it can be.
Our monthly meetings will provide you with information on the events and happening in our children's lives. Join us as we learn about their academic, fine arts and athletic accomplishments as well as the activities our children will be involved with in the upcoming months.
Parental Involvement (PI) is one of the cornerstones of The Villages Charter School system. We feel that the involved parent has a greater impact on the educational experience of their child. The Buffalo PRIDE provides many of the parental involvement opportunities throughout the school year. PRIDE meetings also count for PI hours and are a good place to meet the parents of the children's new friends. We have developed a detailed "Parent Involvement Manual" -- click here for a brochure.

Introduction to letter for Consumer Credit Act
Consumer Credit Act 1974 – Section 75
Where goods or services have been paid for using a form of credit, i.e. a credit card or a credit agreement arranged by the trader, you may have an equal liability claim against the credit firm under section 75 of the Consumer Credit Act 1974 provided the contract amount is over £100 but not more than £30,000.

With images of fire and brimstone, emphasizing the power of Mother Nature, volcanoes have lit up the world news lately.
In Alaska, Mt. Pavlof volcano has been erupting since Nov. 12 sending ash clouds spewing 30,000 feet above sea level. In Hawaii, the lava flow from Kilauea Volcano advances slowly across the Big Island, continuing its 31 years of near-continuous eruptions and now threatening towns.
Costa Rica also has had its share of volcanoes in the news. Costa Rica may be a small country but it has numerous active volcanoes steaming down the center. There are 10 major volcanoes; among the most active are Poás, Turrialba, Arenal, Rincon de la Vieja, and Irazú volcanoes.
The sudden eruption of Turrialba Volcano on Oct. 29 was the largest in 150 years, according to the National Seismological Network (RSN). The massive phreatic explosion spewed out ash and rocks from the 3,340-meter-high volcano, the easternmost of Costa Rica's active volcanoes. Farmland covering the volcano's flanks has been greatly affected.
Poás Volcano also erupted strongly, on Oct. 14, ejecting mud and water from its green acid crater lake more than 200 meters into the air to the observation platform. Rising above the city of Alajuela, northwest of the capital city of San José, Poás is one the most visited volcanoes in Costa Rica.
Irazú Volcano is located immediately east of San José and opposite Turrialba Volcano. At 3,432 meters, Irazú is Costa Rica's highest volcano. Arenal Volcano is one of the major tourist attractions in Costa Rica. Since a major eruption in 1968 brought it to life, it has had near-continuous activity.
The largest and most active volcano in the Guanacaste Range in northwest Costa Rica is Rincón de la Vieja. At 15 kilometers wide, the approximately 9,000-year-old caldera, is sometimes called the "Colossus of Guanacaste" and contains at least nine major eruptive centers. Rincón de la Vieja also recently increased activity, with phreatic explosions occurring from the main crater since Sept. 17. Its last magmatic eruption was in 1995.
You are ideally located to visit Rincón de la Vieja Volcano in Guanacaste, Costa Rica, at Hotel Hacienda Guachipelin. Hacienda Guachipelin is one of the best Guanacaste hotels and received the TripAdvisor Certificate of Excellence for 2014. The hotel offers Costa Rica adventure tours and hosts the annual North Face Endurance Challenge and the Rincon de la Vieja Challenge adventure races.

The Rincon de la Vieja Challenge 100-mile mountain bike race at Rincon de la Vieja Volcano in Guanacaste, Costa Rica is now the first international chapter of the National Ultra Endurance Series (NUE).
The NUE is a series of twelve 100-mile mountain bike races across the United States. Winner of the 2014 NUE series, Brenda Simril of Tennessee, also took first place in the Open Category for Women in the Rincon de la Vieja Challenge 2014 that was staged at Hotel Hacienda Guachipelin.
Called by pro mountain bikers the "most extreme 100-miler in the world," the Rincon de la Vieja Challenge started in 2013 with 140 racers, and rose to 270 in 2014. Most were Costa Rican competitors. Villa says they are projecting up to 400 or 500 participants for 2015, with many more international racers.
"There are no 100-mile races south of the United States. We are the first 100-mile race in Latin America," commented JuanCarlos Villa, founder and organizer of the Rincon de la Vieja Challenge. "I'm really excited about making the Rincon de la Vieja Challenge part of the NUE series. Traveling to participate in Rincon will be as easy and cost-similar to traveling from one state to another to participate in an NUE 100-miler. The nice thing is that participants will have a chance to do other activities and experiences, turning the trip into a race-vacation."
"We're a tough race and we're really well organized," said Villa, who was inspired from a training ride around the active volcano to create the race. "Costa Rica ranks high for mountain biking in Latin America because of the well-developed tourism infrastructure, good security and excellent topography."
The only race to circumnavigate an active volcano, the unique competition goes around the massive Rincon de la Vieja Volcano in the Rincon de la Vieja National Park, taking riders through five microclimates from the dry plains of Guanacaste up over the Continental Divide to lush cloud forests and back again. With roughly 12,000 feet of climbing over the 100-miles (160 km), on gravel roads, red clay tracks, river and volcanic rock trails, smooth white ash roads and "dog's teeth" calcite rock trails, racers are pushed to the limits physically and mentally.
Hotel Hacienda Guachipelin has hosted the Rincon de la Vieja Challenge the past two years, and will again be the race headquarters on Aug. 22, 2015. The adventure and ecotourism lodge also staged the international North Face Endurance Challenge in 2013 and 2014 at Rincón de la Vieja.
To stay at Rincon de la Vieja hotel Hacienda Guachipelin, you can make reservations online. The Guanacaste hotel is located 15.5 miles (25 km) northeast of Liberia.

September in Costa Rica is a month full of colorful celebrations, commemorating the country's Independence Day on Sept. 15. For the Mes de la Patria, or "Month of the Nation," buildings, businesses and even cars are festooned with blue, white and red Costa Rican flags, streamers and decorations.
Costa Rica, Nicaragua, Guatemala, El Salvador and Honduras are all celebrating 193 years of independence from Spain this month. On Sept. 15, 1821, a Central American congress signed "The Act of Independence," which asserted they were free of the Spanish Empire.
Unlike other independence declarations in the Americas, the Central American states did not have to fight for their liberation. Spain, exhausted by the war with Napoleon Bonaparte and other Latin American wars, actually supported Central American independence because the region had become a burden for the empire.
Although Sept. 15 is the day when independence was declared, news of Costa Rica's new freedom did not reach the territory until almost a month later on Oct. 13, because a messenger had to travel on horseback from Guatemala. Costa Rica finally became a completely independent state in 1838, when it separated from the Central American republic.
Flags from all five Central American countries are hanging at the presidential offices of Costa Rican President Luis Guillermo Solís through the end of September.
Festivities will really get going this weekend all over the country with festivals, parades, lantern ceremonies, traditional music and dancing. Monday, Sept. 15, is a national holiday and businesses, banks and government institutions will be closed.
Liberia, the capital city of Guanacaste, Costa Rica, traditionally celebrates Independence Day with huge events.
On Sunday, Sept. 14, the patriotic party begins at precisely 6:00 p.m. with the Costa Rica National Anthem broadcast nationally on TV and radio. Following the anthem is the traditional nighttime lantern parade (Desfiles de Faroles) reenacting the "freedom torch" that notified Costa Rica of its freedom. Children carrying colorful homemade paper lanterns in the shape of little houses and other objects will parade with their families in town squares. There are usually typical dances and fireworks.
Monday morning, Sept. 15, school bands march through the town streets playing drums, lyres and other instruments. Dancers wearing traditional costumes move to the beat. Traditional foods are usually sold by street vendors. The celebrations are well-attended by families and are a lot of fun.
Just 13 miles from Liberia, in the foothills of the Rincon de la Vieja Volcano, Hotel Hacienda Guachipelin is one of the best places to stay in Guanacaste. The adventure eco-tourism hotel is also a working horse and cattle ranch, and received the TripAdvisor Certificate of Excellence for 2014. Now in green season, you can enjoy great Costa Rica travel deals at Hotel Hacienda Guachipelin.

Green season at Rincon de la Vieja Volcano in Guanacaste, Costa Rica, means more water flowing everywhere. Time for those exhilarating river tubing trips on the Negro River. And time for waterfalls.
Four major waterfalls flow at Rincon de la Vieja by Hotel Hacienda Guachipelin, and all of them have pools where you can swim in refreshing, pure water. Getting there is an adventure – either by hiking or horseback riding. Almost all waterfall tours from the Hacienda Guachipelin Adventure Center last two to three hours, and are available between 7:00 a.m. and 2:00 p.m.
Located near the Las Pailas entrance to the Rincon de la Vieja National Park, the Oropéndola Waterfall plunges an impressive 82 feet (25 meters) in a beautiful canyon of the Rio Blanco (White River). The sparkling turquoise pool below makes for a refreshing swim.
How to get there: A 45-minute each-way horseback ride on a scenic trail, and short walk to the waterfall; or a 1.5 hour each-way scenic hike; or a 15-minute drive and short walk.
Two waterfalls cascade into a beautiful sky blue mineral water pool in this amphitheater canyon at Chorreras Waterfall. It is an excellent place for a cooling swim, or just to enjoy the beautiful surroundings.
How to get there: A 25-minute each-way horseback ride on a scenic trail, and short walk to the waterfall; or a 45-minute each-way scenic hike on the same trail.
The 115-foot (35-meter) Victoria Waterfall on the Rio Negro (Black River) is where the river tubing trips start their adventure downriver. The surrounding canyon has unique vegetation and topography, and you can swim in the pool at the waterfall's base.
How to get there: A 45-minute each-way horseback ride on a scenic trail, and a short, steep descent to the waterfall; or a one hour each-way scenic hike on the same trail.
The Cangreja Waterfall is located inside the Rincon de la Vieja National Park forest. Spilling 130 feet (40 meters) in a white ribbon of water out of the green forest, the waterfall forms a celestial blue pool at its base; its color comes from dissolved copper minerals from the volcano. The only way to get to this waterfall is by hiking 3 miles (5 km) into the national park; along the trail you might see wildlife like white-faced or howler monkeys, coatis, armadillos, Central American agoutis, iguanas, and birds like the Blue-crowned Motmot or the Emerald Toucanet.
How to get there: 15-minute drive to the national park entrance and then hiking.
One of the best times to visit Rincon de la Vieja is now in the green season (May to November) when the active volcano's fumaroles and boiling mud pots are most active. The hiking is fantastic and Hotel Hacienda Guachipelin has the best Costa Rica adventure tours. Afterward, you can enjoy a warm volcanic mud bath and soak in Hacienda Guachipelin's natural hot springs.
In green season, you can enjoy great Costa Rica travel deals at Hotel Hacienda Guachipelin, a TripAdvisor Certificate of Excellence 2014 winner.

Hotel Hacienda Guachipelin will again be the headquarters for the thrilling Rincón de la Vieja Challenge 2014 100-mile mountain bike race in August.
The competition, set for Aug. 23, 2014, is a unique adventure race – the only 100-mile mountain bike race in Latin America, and the only race in the world to circumnavigate an active volcano, according to press information.
Located in Costa Rica's northwestern Guanacaste province, Rincón de la Vieja is the largest volcano in the region. Standing 6,286 feet tall, its caldera is nine miles (15 km) wide. The adjacent dormant Santa Maria Volcano stands even taller at 6,307 feet. The Rincón de la Vieja Volcano and National Park were declared a UNESCO World Heritage site in 1999.
Mountain bikers from all over will test their stamina and skill riding 100 miles (160 km) clockwise around the volcano through five microclimates – from the Northern Pacific dry plains of Guanacaste up over Costa Rica's Continental Divide to lush cloud forests, across rivers, around the smoldering Rincón de la Vieja Volcano to where it meets the Miravalles Volcano, and back to the finish line.
Starting at 5:30 a.m. from the Las Pailas entrance to the Rincon de la Vieja Volcano National Park, competitors have 12 hours to ride gravel roads, red clay tracks, river and volcanic rock trails, smooth white ash roads and "dog's teeth" calcite rock trails – with close to 11,000 feet of elevation gain – to reach the finish.
Race entrance information can be found at Rincon de la Vieja Challenge. Event headquarters will be at Rincon de la Vieja hotel Hacienda Guachipelin. You can make reservations online. The Guanacaste hotel is located 15.5 miles (25 km) northeast of Guanacaste's principal city of Liberia.

According to the 2013 World Energy Performance Index, Costa Rica is among the top 10 countries in the world with the best energy performance; and without question the northwestern province of Guanacaste has become a focal point for alternative and renewable energy.
Currently, Costa Rica produces 73% of its electricity from hydroelectric power, 13% from geothermal sources, 4% from wind turbines, and 1% from biomass, for a total of 91% of its energy generated from renewable sources, according to the Costa Rica Ministry of Environment and Energy (MINAE). Hydroelectric power, however, is climate-dependent, and during the driest months of summer it is stretched to its limits when water reserves are low.
This is where Guanacaste's vast plains, powerful volcanoes and dry, sunny climate come into play. The second largest province in the country is being tapped for the powerful resources of wind, solar and geothermal energy.
In Guanacaste Costa Rica – one of the windiest locations in the world – international and Costa Rican companies are harnessing the power of the wind with huge wind turbine farms. There are currently 11 wind energy projects in Costa Rica, most in Guanacaste, and also by Volcano and Lake Arenal and in the Central Valley. Spanish wind engineering firm Gamesa is building a new wind farm in Guanacaste, set to be generating electricity by 2015.
Solar energy companies are rapidly on the rise in Guanacaste. When the Miravalles Solar Plant opened on the slopes of the Miravalles Volcano in November 2012, thanks to a $10 million loan by the Japanese government, it was the first of its kind in Costa Rica and the largest solar project in Central America. Now there are several solar projects in the works for the region.
Guanacaste's North Volcanic Mountain Ridge has been ideal for geothermal power generation, tapping the Rincón de la Vieja, Miravalles and Tenorio volcanoes. The Miravalles Geothermal Field opened in 1994 and produces nearly 14% of the National Electrical System's (SEN) capacity. The Pailas Geothermal Power Plant opened in July 2011 just outside the Rincón de la Vieja Volcano National Park and is also a key energy supplier. Last November, President Laura Chinchilla signed an agreement with the Japanese International Cooperation Agency (JICA) for a $560 million loan to build three more geothermal power plants near the famous Rincón de la Vieja Volcano in Guanacaste.
Visit Guanacaste
One of Guanacaste's top areas to visit is the Rincón de la Vieja Volcano. Hotel Hacienda Guachipelín is a first-class ecotourism lodge and ideal place to stay at Rincón de la Vieja.
For things to do in Guanacaste, Costa Rica, look no further than the Costa Rica adventure tours at Hacienda Guachipelin. Their adventure park offers you canopy zip lines, canyoning, waterfall rappelling, river tubing, horseback riding, nature trails, natural thermal springs, and tours into the Rincón de la Vieja Volcano National Park.

With 15 daily passenger flights and receiving approximately half of all Canadian visitors to Costa Rica, Liberia's International Airport in Guanacaste is growing up fast.
According to data from the Costa Rica Bureau of Immigration and the Costa Rica Tourism Board (ICT), during the first six months of 2013 about 44,000 Canadians flew into the Daniel Oduber International Airport at Liberia (LIR) – representing 49% of all Canadians entering Costa Rica during that time. Approximately 30% of all tourists from the USA to Costa Rica – about 143,000 visitors – also preferred to arrive in country via Liberia rather than the Juan Santamaria International Airport in Alajuela (SJO).
While the Juan Santamaria International Airport still receives the lion's share of international arrivals – flights to 43 destinations operated by 24 airlines – the Liberia International Airport is steadily growing in popularity for visitors seeking the Guanacaste Province's legendary sun.
Guanacaste is known as the "sunny side" of Costa Rica. The northwestern province is named after Costa Rica's national tree, the Guanacaste. The nearly-always sunny climate is dry and hot, creating its unique dry tropical forest habitat. Vast rolling plains, foothills, low coastal mountains and the towering Cordillera de Guanacaste mountain range create an interesting topography and micro-climates rich with biodiversity.
Guanacaste has quickly changed from a forgotten corner of Costa Rica into one of the most visited areas in the country by national and international tourists. The region is home to seven national parks, and the Guanacaste Pacific Coast is known as the "Gold Coast" or "Costa Rica's Riviera" for its spectacular beaches.
The Liberia International Airport is the fastest way to get to these popular Costa Rica beaches and all of Guanacaste's attractions.
Discover another side of Guanacaste at the Rincon de la Vieja Volcano
The beautiful forest, waterfalls, rivers, natural volcanic hot springs and bubbling volcanic mud pits of the very active Rincon de la Vieja Volcano are a top attraction in Guanacaste. Located right near the Las Pailas entrance to the Rincon de la Vieja National Park, in the midst of all of these natural wonders, is Hacienda Guachipelin Hotel.
Hacienda Guachipelin is a working horse and cattle ranch and an eco-tourism hotel for adventure travel. They offer thrilling canopy ziplines, canyoning, waterfall rappelling, river tubing, horseback riding, nature trails, mountain biking, thermal springs and an authentic experience of Guanacaste culture.

Nicoya geographically speaking was made of the lands located west from the Tempisque River to the Pacific Ocean, and then north of the river El Salto all the way into the river La Flor and Lake Nicaragua, which was the border with the Province of Nicaragua.
This territory enjoyed considerable autonomy, even in civil and administrative depended on Guatemala, the Captaincy. However, by the closeness with the Province of Costa Rica, specifically with towns of Puntarenas, Bagaces and Las Cañas, it established business relationships and closeness with the lifestyle of Costa Ricans.
Therefore, Nicoya, during the Colony, held a very special status. It was a territory that belonged neither to Nicaragua nor to Costa Rica. Commercially speaking, important links existed with Costa Rica.
In 1812 the Province of Costa Rica needed to send a deputy to the courts of Cadiz. Since the Costa Rican population was small, the Province had Nicoya joining temporarily, so that the minimum population required to appoint such a representative was achieved. With this union the priest Florencio del Castillo became the representative for the Province of Costa Rica in the Courts of Cadiz.
When independence was declared in Central America, on September 15, 1821, Nicaragua turned its interest in Nicoya. Since Nicaragua was a country with many internal problems, becoming a part of Nicaragua was not appealing to Nicoya, forcing Nicoya to make a decision as to what country to be a part of. Therfore, Costa Rica was the best option.
The relationship with Costa Rica favors the union made with this territory since commercial ties were very favorable and integration complemented the economic policy, which was developed years before that.
Under this situation , the inhabitants of Nicoya agreed to hold an open meeting to define their situation. They therefore decided to join the Province of Costa Rica on July 25, 1824, under the motto "From the Homeland by our will", as they were the inhabitants of Nicoya who decided to annex the province of Costa Rica.
Therefore, it should always be the Annexation of Nicoya to the Province of Costa Rica, never the annexation of Guanacaste.
This is a very special week in Costa Rica. We celebrate the 2nd of August the day of our Saint Patron "La Virgen de los Angeles".
Costa Rica is very Catholic. As a matter of fact, Costa Rica is declared Catholic by its constitution.
The leyend about the Virgin say that on August 2 of 1635, a small stone sculpture was found on top of a stone by Juana Pereira. She was a poor mestizo lady that every morning woke up to collect fire wood. With great joy Juana picked up the treasure, never imagining that five times more would be found in the same place. The image disappeared from drawers, chests, and even the parish tabernacle, to return to the rock where she had been found. Then everyone understood that the Virgin wanted a place of prayer there where he could give his love to the humble and the poor.
In August, the Basilica is subject of an extensive pilgrimage and visitation. About 1.5 million believers throughout the country and many from out of the country join the celebration. Lots of them do a 22 kilometer walk to the basilica during the Romeria.
La Virgen de los Angeles was declared patroness of the Americas by Pope John Paul II. The Sanctuary is located in the community of Los Angeles in Cartago.
Many miracles have occurred through the intercession of the Virgin. Read this article that illustrates
It is a criminal offense to drive under the influence of alcohol in Costa Rica. Citizens and residents will have there license suspended and their car confiscated, if they are caught driving with more than 1 beer. If you are a non costarrican, your license will not be suspended, but you will get a considerable ticket and the car will be confiscated.
We recommend that if you are going to drink do not drive, get a designated driver or get a taxi. In most tourist areas, the road police will always show around. So do yourself a favor, do not drink and drive while you vacation in Costa Rica.

Dear students, faculty and staff,
One of the guiding values of the University of Illinois is our commitment to each other. This commitment begins with simple respect, and is manifest in civil discourse.
If you have been following the media, you may be aware that a small number of students at the Urbana campus, upset that classes had not been canceled due to the cold weather on Monday, sank far below any minimal standard of decency when they took to social media to post vitriol aimed at Urbana Chancellor Phyllis Wise. Racist, sexist comments that were sometimes vulgar or even violent quickly went viral and have brought national attention and disgrace to the University of Illinois.
Though even these comments are protected speech, they harm the University and every person associated with it. In particular, it is worth trying to imagine how some students must feel to have among them a group of peers, however small, who may harbor such hatred beneath the surface.
Let this incident be a reminder that each of us has a responsibility to temper even our strongest personal opinions with humanity. A university is an ideal place to bring a broad range of ideas and differing perspectives and air them out in reasoned argument. There is no proper place for demeaning or intimidating speech.

Dramatic Drop in Blood Infections Among ICU Patients: CDC
But number of cases still too high in other health care settings, agency adds
TUESDAY, March 1 (HealthDay News) -- There has been a dramatic decline in bloodstream infections in intensive care unit patients with central lines, but the number of these infections in general remains too high, a new U.S. government report shows.
From 2001 to 2009, the number of bloodstream infections in intensive care unit (ICU) patients with central lines fell by 58 percent, the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention said Tuesday. That decrease represented up to 27,000 lives saved and $1.8 billion in excess health care costs, according to the CDC Vital Signs report.
However, the report also showed that an estimated 60,000 bloodstream infections in patients with central lines occurred in non-ICU settings, including kidney dialysis clinics (about 37,000 in 2008) and hospital wards (about 23,000 in 2009).
A bloodstream infection can occur when germs enter the blood through a central line, which is a tube placed in a large vein of a patient's neck or chest. The cause of these infections is often a lack of proper procedures in the placement or maintenance of the central line.
Bloodstream infections in patients with central lines are fatal in as many as 25 percent of cases, the report noted.
The large decrease in bloodstream infections in ICU patients with central lines shows that preventing these infections is possible and that the same preventive practices must be adopted in other health care settings.
"Preventing bloodstream infections is not only possible, it should be expected. Meticulous insertion and care of the central line by all members of the clinical care team, including doctors, nurses and others at the bedside is essential. The next step is to apply what we've learned from this to other health care settings and other health care-associated conditions, so that all patients are protected," CDC Director Dr. Thomas R. Frieden said in an agency news release.
