Lodi's thirty-six % solution: delicious wines from less familiar grapes
One of the more interesting things to come along over the past year have been the "Seven % Solution" tastings popping up here and there. Originally conceived by a Healdsburg wine retailer, the 7% is in reference to the idea that 93% of the wine grape acreage in California's North Coast consists of just eight grapes, going into most of the popular varietal wines sold today: Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Pinot Noir, Syrah, Zinfandel, Petite Sirah, Chardonnay, and Sauvignon Blanc. However, the Lodi AVA – California's largest single winegrowing region – skews the 7% formulation somewhat. Lodi is steady in multiple.. VIEW MORE »
In praise of untannic reds (especially for Julia Child's French burgers!)
In a recent article appearing in Decanter – a U.K. based publication that bills itself as the "world's best wine magazine" (and perhaps it is) – a critic named Andrew Jefford related a recent experience comparing two red wines made from the same grape (Tannat), one from Lodi and one from South-West France: A couple of weeks ago, I tasted (in the same afternoon) a Tannat from the Alta Mesa AVA in warm Lodi (made by Ursa Vineyards using fruit from Ron Silva's Silvaspoons Vineyard) a couple of hours before trying a barrel sample of the 2012 Vignes Préphylloxériques, a Tannat..

Lodi's Mediterranean identity reflected by huge diversity of grapes
Harvest is a great time of year for photographing wine grapes, which become the most identifiable by their colors, shapes and overall morphology during that fleeting window just before they are picked. Because Spring bud break and flowering occurred as much as two weeks ahead of normal in 2013, Lodi's harvest commenced during the first week of August with earlier ripening grapes like Sauvignon Blanc and Chardonnay, and higher acid/lower sugar Pinot Noir destined for sparkling wine production. Traditionally, harvesting of black skinned grapes for the making of fuller bodied red wines doesn't start in earnest until mid-September, but this.. VIEW MORE »
Pasos Tannat can crank up summer grills
Tannat is not a wine grape to be trifled with. Its black-purplish color can be intimidating, and its thick, tannin laden texture a mountainous affair. If none of that bothers you in a red wine, then you can, to paraphrase Jimi Hendrix, chop it down with the edge of your hand. Maybe pick up all the pieces and make an island, like a kid playing with food on the plate. At least that's what Antonio Pasos seems like: a winemaker shaping iconoclastic wines seemingly out of mounds of sand. Mr. Pasos works out of his Pasos Vineyards winery in Vino.. VIEW MORE »

Updated from 6:45 p.m. ET to include additional information about Berkshire Hathaway, Cree and Intel.
NEW YORK ( TheStreet) -- Things look a whole lot better at the top of the seesaw than they do at the bottom.
The great rally of 2012 has mostly been a slow-and-steady affair with triple-digit swings in the Dow Jones Industrial Average few and far between. Tuesday's stellar rally was broad and convincing but it also feels like Wall Street may have a "too much, too soon" situation on its hands with volatility slowing creeping back into the mix.
Last week was the worst one for equities all year, with even Apple (AAPL) taking a breather, and there's an argument to be made that a bit of churning at those levels would've done the market's internals some good. Instead, the Dow roared to its best day in more than a month on Tuesday.All of a sudden, the blue-chip index is comfortably above 13,000 again, the S&P 500 is sitting 20 points above its 50-day moving average, and the Nasdaq has reclaimed 3000 in high style. First-quarter earnings season has started out well, but not quite that well. It makes for a bit of a schizophrenic feel from one day to the next, and Peter Tuz, a portfolio manager at Chase Investment Counsel, expects these conditions to persist for a while. "I think it's a daily seesaw between Europe and earnings," says Tuz. "On the one hand, you have economic issues in Europe coming to the forefront and that tends to weigh down the market; earnings, by and large, have been beating diminished expectations ... I think it's going to go back and forth for the rest of the year. I don't think the worries in Europe are over by any means. You saw Greece, you're starting to see real problems in Spain. There will be solutions in Spain and then there will be problems in another country." Tuz also weighed in on Apple, a stock that he believes investors should look to take advantage of any weakness in. Apple shares broke a five-day losing streak on Tuesday, surging more than 5% in a move that The Wall Street Journal said was the biggest one-day dollar advance in the company's history.

What are the risk factors for blood clots?
The risk factors for arterial clots are those that are common to all diseases that cause narrowing of blood vessels, cholesterol plaque formation, and plaque rupture.
- High blood pressure
- High cholesterol levels
- Diabetes
- Smoking
- Family history
- Cancer
Venous clots are formed due to one of two main reasons: 1) immobility, and 2) genetic errors in the clotting mechanism.
- Immobility: Most commonly, when the body stops moving, the risk of blood clots increases, since muscle movement is required to pump blood towards the heart. Stagnant blood in a vein is prone to clot.
- This may occur when a person is hospitalized or bedridden after illness or surgery.
- It may also occur with long trips (such as in a car, train, or plane) where hours may pass without a person getting up to walk or stretch.
- Orthopedic injuries and casting also put the person at risk.
- Pregnancy is a risk factor for forming blood clots in the legs and pelvis, since the growing uterus may slow blood flow back to the heart to a sufficient extent that blood clots may form.
- Genetic errors in the clotting mechanism: There may be a genetic or inborn error in the clotting mechanism, making a person hypercoagulable (hyper=more + coagulation= clotting) and at greater risk for forming clots.

Sequence stratigraphy:
The problem with marker beds is that lithostratigraphic units that are unambiguously not time-transgressive are rare and hard to identify. What about the unconformities - the layers where rocks aren't?
Transgressive-regressive packages bounded by unconformities make up the sedimentary record of most basins on cratons and continental margins. Some of these unconformities span great distances and long periods of time, and these divide the stratigraphic record of continents into discrete packages called sequences. These unconformity-bounded packages likely represent large scale tectonic or eustatic events that persist for tens of millions of years. These are natural intervals of sedimentary history that may cross biostratigraphic period boundaries. These form the basis of sequence stratigraphy.
Sequence: discrete package of sediments bounded by the unconformities that divide transgressive-regressive cycles from one another. Note: These unconformities generally form through erosion of exposed sediments at lowstand.
- Some of the unconformities span great distances and long time periods
- Usually represents large scale tectonic or eustatic events that persist for up to tens of millions of years
- Natural intervals of sedimentary history that may cross bio/lithostratigraphic boundaries
- Transgression: ocean moves towards shore; result of sea level rise
- Regression: ocean moves away from shore; result of sea level fall
- Progradational: shore and nearshore deposits move outward into the ocean and overlie deeper water deposits
- Retrogradational: deeper water deposits move towards land and overlie shallow water deposits
- Aggradational: facies remain in the same general location and stack atop others of the same facies
Global analysis shows that the major sequences of North America appear (to varying degrees) in other regions of the world. The global similarities in transgressive-regressive cycles are unlikely to have been controlled by local tectonics and thus must have a global cause. The only reasonable process that could be responsible is global sea level change.
Why does this happen?
Over long time scales (105 to 108 years), sediment accumulation is strongly controlled by changes in Eustatic sea level - The depth of the ocean with respect to the center of the Earth. Related to:
- Tectonic activity: uplift or subsidence of the lithosphere relative to the center of the Earth. E.G Cretaceous highstand.
- Climate. E.G. Quaternary ice ages.
Because these processes differ, we have two ways of thinking of sea-level:
- Eustatic sea level: Depth of the ocean with respect to the center of the Earth. Tends to vary with mid-ocean ridge activity
- Relative sea level: The distance between some lithospheric reference horizon (like the sea floor bedrock) and the sea surface is called relative sea level or accommodation space. Can vary with climate even when tectonic activity is constant.
Thus, accommodation space, the potential space available for sediment to fill is determined from the combined movement of:
- the sea surface
- the sea floor
Accommodation - the filing of accommodation space with sediment - is a function of:
- changes in relative sea level
- rates of sedimentation
Resulting patterns reflect accommodation space and rate of sediment influx:
- if the sea level rises and there is a zero or low sediment flux, then transgression results.
- if sea level rises and there is a low rate of sediment flux, then retrogradation results.
- if sea level rises and the rate of sediment flux matches the sea level rise, then aggradation results.
- if sea level rises and the rate of sediment flux exceeds the sea level rise, then progradation results. If sea level is constant, progradation is extreme.
Stratigraphic sequences consist of a succession of genetically related strata, meaning they:
- were deposited during a single cycle of relative sea level change
- obeyed Walther's law.
Stratigraphic forcing
The distribution of strata in time and space changes due to changes in accommodation space. As accommodation decreases, stratal packages prograde. As accommodation increases, stratal packages can aggrade or retrograde.
- Profound increase in accommodation results in dramatic flooding and the development of erosional maximum flooding surfaces
- Profound decrease in accommodation can result in truncation, bypass, and development of lowstand unconformities constituting primary sequence boundaries.
Recognizing changes in accommodation space:
- Transgressive surface: switch from progradation or aggradation to retrogradation. Indicates significant flooding (transgression) and an increase in accommodation space.
- Maximum flooding surface: switch from retrogradation to aggradation to progradation. Indicates peak transgression. Surfaces are associated with max sediment starvation because there is less continent exposed to erode. Often called condensed sections.
- Sequence boundaries: surface of profound regression.
- abnormal subaerial exposure (rooting, deep soils, karst)
- a basinward shift in facies (fluvial on offshore, eolian on subtidal carbonates)
- a downward shift in coastal onlap (e.g., deposition over an ancestral shelf edge)
- abnormal truncation and erosion (deep scour)
Key terms in sequence stratigraphy:
- Sequence: Consists of succession of genetically related strata deposited during a single cycle of relative sea level change. Characteristic sedimentary wedge with specific geometry and vertical stacking pattern.
- Parasequence: Remember that trnsgressions typically yield much less sediment than regressions. Thus, it is often useful to identify packages of sediment between maximum flooding surfaces, that mostly consist of regressional deposits. A parasequence genetically related package of strata bounded by flooding surfaces. Most parasequences are asymmetical shallowing-upward sedimentary cycles. By genetically related, it is meant that all facies within a parasequence were deposited in lateral continuity to one another, that is, Walther's Law holds true within a parasequence.
- Parasequence set: A genetically related package of parasequences with a characteristic stacking pattern (aggradational, progradational, retrogradational).
Note that none of these definitions contains a constraint regarding relative sea level, time duration, or spatial distribution. This is the essence of sequence stratigraphy - subdividing the stratigraphic record into chronologically distinct units using erosional and maximum flooding surfaces as time-specific marker beds.

I probably should have had more patience… I probably should of tried to see if from the other point of view… but I just couldn't. I couldn't follow the logic of the stewpid person… and I couldn't condone the actions… I lost it, I said foul words that would make sailors blush… I called some people some bad names (ouch to their face ouch ouch), and I really didn't feel very sorry about it. What's wrong with people? Do they REALLY feel it's acceptable to behave in a completely irresponsible manner, and not have any sense of personal responsibility for it? I guess they do because they wouldn't of done it otherwise. It's sad. Can we move all the stewpid people to an island somewhere?

Pretty, pretty Mir asked me some questions about magnet schools, so I thought I'd just address them in a full-out post. When I look back at what I went through this year in terms of research, school visits, sweat, and tears, it definitely seems post-worthy. Also, it might help other parents in Chicago, because it is frickin' CONFUSING!!
The whole process starts the year before your child starts kindergarten (some parents start their research earlier, but, we weren't here, and in retrospect, I just don't see the point). During the fall, you'll need to start making a list of schools that you are potentially interested in, and then you'll need to try to visit as many of these as you can. The visits generally take place during open houses, which last about two hours. This is a big hassle for both working and non-working parents. If you are working, this is a lot of time away from your job. If you are not working, this is a huge babysitting expense. I didn't visit all of the schools we applied to - there just wasn't enough time, and we applied to almost 20 schools.
Yes, you read that correctly. We applied to 20 public schools. In Chicago, any child can automatically go to his or her neighborhood school, and if your neighborhood school is a good one, then you can just ignore the rest of this post. We don't care for our neighborhood school. (At the open house, the principal ignored us - bad sign.) You can also apply to other neighborhood schools, because if they don't have enough kids in the neighborhood, they accept other children via lottery.
Some of these neighborhood schools have specialties (they are called magnet clusters, but that's really confusing). So, our neighborhood school is actually a fine arts magnet cluster school. Others are math and science, or literature and writing, etc.
There are also gifted and classical schools. Gifted schools are for the kids who are truly gifted - they learn differently. Classical schools are for children who are advanced in their learning - they are reading and writing at a level above their age group. For these, your children need to be tested. We tested Dylan for both, and although she did very well, she didn't get into either, primarily because we are white. In Chicago, they still operate many of their schools on a racial quota system. They accept 1/3 majority (white kids), and 2/3 minorities. I have a big problem with this system (I'd prefer they do outreach to people who don't have the time, money or wherewithal to navigate this insane system), but it's still here, at least for now, so it doesn't matter what I think.
Finally, there are magnet schools. These schools all have a focus (arts, language, Montessori, math/science, etc.), and they take children from all over the city. They also operate on the quota system.
We applied to a slew of different types of schools, and Dylan only got into a few. We didn't apply to any private schools. First, I don't want to pay for it. Second, I knew that if we didn't get into any of the schools we wanted, we could just move into one of the neighborhoods with a great school (we are renting). One of the schools she DID get into was a Fine Arts Magnet.
Mir asked, "You're supposed to pick an area of interest for your 5-year-old that's going to work for them until their teens? What happens if her interests change?"
My answer is, it doesn't really matter. I happen to be pretty sure that Dylan will always enjoy some aspect of the arts (it's really broad. they have art, drama, music and dance). Also, it's all based in academics. So, yes, they learn how to dance, but they also do reports on famous dancers, and learn about dance styles, etc. It's very cool. But, irrespective of all this, I had no way of guaranteeing that she'd get into an arts school. It was complete and utter luck. 700 students applied for this school's kindergarten slots. They had 43 available. And only 1/3 of those slots were for white kids. TOTAL LUCK.
So, that is the story of Chicago Public Schools. If you live here and want more information, feel free to email. My friend and I have an Excel spreadsheet, a Word document, and a whole bunch of anecdotal stories to share. It's been quite a journey. And, as alluded to in my title, it has made me not want to ever leave Chicago. I can NOT let all of that time go to waste.

Cleaning Out the Closets
Whether it's a seasonal wardrobe and clothing shift or time to tackle toy storage gone crazy, try these eight tips to tidy the closets in your family's home
A garbage bag a day. That's one of Troy-based organizer Patricia Krebs' simplest – and strongly effective – storage-space prescriptions. "Every day, clean out five things that can be donated," she explains. "It's something that's reasonable – but not hours and hours of agonizing over things."
Krebs, who owns Orderly Oasis Professional Organizers LLC, should know: A former middle school teacher and mechanical engineer, she's also got a houseful of closets belonging to four daughters, ages 3 to 19. Here's her Rx for making the seasonal wardrobe swap a more manageable pill to swallow.
1. Give notice. Some unleash a commando-style two-day blitz; others begin chipping away when those donation pick-up notices arrive in the mail. Either way, give your kids a heads' up – especially the older ones. It gives them time to plan and even get a jumpstart, and makes the cleaning a family affair.
2. Clean sweep. Launch the job with a quick go-through. Plop clothing, accessories and other stuff into one of three primary piles: keep, donate/sell, or toss. As a simple gauge, with her younger girls, ages 3 and 5, Krebs asks, "Do you like this?" and "Are you going to wear this?"
3. 'Wardrobe clarification.' "Basically, 80 percent of what you have is not being used," Krebs says, "and 20 percent is what you use all the time." It's also called the 80-20 Rule, or the Pareto Principle. Keep it in mind when assessing why stuff's in your family's closets, and what you really need (even if it's not worn every day).
4. Time to decide. So – back to the "keep" pile. True "keepers" can pass four key questions: Do I love it? Is it flattering on me and a comfy fit? Does it give off the image I want to present? And is it in good repair? The notable exception: quantity. Ten pairs of same color pants, for instance, may deem more scrutiny.
5. Ask – and respect. Getting kids' input is paramount. "Give them choices, especially tweens and teens, and then support them … even if you don't necessarily agree." Yes, that can mean kissing goodbye that had-to-have, went-to-six-stores-to-find-it gift. But there's a plus: Four months from now, when they ask where it went, it'll have been their decision.
6. Off-season storage. For the "keep" stuff you won't be wearing this summer – winter boots, coats, snow pants – create an off-season stash. Krebs recommends 18-gallon Rubbermaid style containers. Come fall, the contents trade places with bathing suits, tank tops and shorts.
7. Donate vs. sell? "It all depends on the amount of time you have," Krebs says. "We donate it and take the tax deduction. I don't have the time – or patience (for selling old clothes)." If you do sell, ensure clothes are in good condition, and are things that you "wouldn't be ashamed to wear," she says. If eBay isn't your bag, set up shop at local mom-to-mom sales, which are in full swing around spring. (Hint: Check the Metro Parent Calendar for upcoming mom-to-mom events.)
8. Holding steady. Remember the "garbage bag a day" concept? It's just one way to create a long-term system. To keep closets tidy, Krebs also suggests keeping "like" items together, such as jackets, and using shoebox-sized plastic containers with snap-lids (try Sterlite latch boxes as one option) to keep odds and ends in place. "As long as stuff is within kids' reach," Krebs says, "that should work."

Would winning $573,204 be 'life changing' money for you?on August 1, 2013 @ 2:43 pm (Updated: 5:44 am - 8/2/13 )
Every summer, tens of thousands of card enthusiasts (including yours truly) make the trek to Sin City to mix it up with big boys on the felt.
With over $200 million - you read that right, over two hundred million dollars - in prize money up for grabs at 62 different events, everyone asks the same question as they sit down to the table: "Why not me?"
Obviously, the vast majority of players end up busting (including me) and taking home nothing more than a good story to tell their friends and families. But a precious few play well and catch some cards.
In the poker world they call that "run good."
Well, Rep had his fair share of "run good" this summer in the $10,000 buy-in Main Event. Even though he won over half a million dollars, there were only 11 other players out of the 6,352 standing between him and the grand prize of $8,359,531.
I sat down with Rep at a local Starbucks and we talked about his amazing run, and for the poker nerds out there, we did an additional segment on some tournament strategy you can listen to here.
If you're wondering how I did in my 5 events? Well, let's just say that it was a learning experience. And, after talking with a great poker mind like Rep, I've got a lot to learn.
Ron Upshaw is one-half of The Ron & Don Show on KIRO Radio (weekdays 3-7). When he's not behind the mic, he is most likely putting his smarts and even-keeled nature to the test by sitting on pocket aces at a local Texas Hold 'Em table.

Alan Chilestone (Club Member) stayed Oct 2014 This review is for Moreton Although the site is a reasonable size, it was relatively quiet when we visited towards the end of season. The pitches seemed well maintained, although there were a couple of areas taped off to allow grass to regrow. Only one of the two toilet blocks was in operation, but this was clean and well maintained. Water always seemed hot. Showers were in a separate room from the toilets, a touch I always like. Obviously a busy site in the summer as here were 2 or possibly 3 site assistants. We noticed that the childrens� play area had more than the �usual� club site equipment. The Railway line runs alongside the site, but the noise of the trains was not intrusive. Handy pub next to the site serves good food and there is a lot of railway memorabilia in the bar.

Cramer Transcript: I Won't Bet Against Larry Ellison
NEW YORK ( TheStreet) -- Debra Borchardt interviews Jim Cramer regarding Oracle's prospects. A full transcript appears below:
Debra Borchardt:
We've got Oracle reporting on Thursday night. There's a lot of question as to whether they're going to give better earnings. This is a very dodgy IT sector right now, very uncertain. What are you looking for out of Oracle's earnings?
Jim Cramer:
You have headwinds galore. You've got European worries but you've got Larry Ellison.
Debra Borchardt:
PC weakness.
I don't want to bet against Larry Ellison. This has been creepingly higher stock. I like Salesforce.com. Now of course Salesforce.com, maybe these guys are enemies or frenemies...I've been going through the jobs book in preparation for an interview I'm doing with Walter Isaacson for a fundraiser and you know Ellison is very charged up about jobs. Ellison is at the center of much that's smart. I'm putting Oracle in the camp more of IBM and Accenture than I am of Hewlett Packard, although Hurd's from there, or Dell. I don't expect any fireworks out of Oracle. When the smoke clears it's going to be up five-eighths or down five-eighths. Debra Borchardt:
So you're looking for modest earnings, maybe some improvement in cloud? Jim Cramer:
Yeah. I think it'll deliver. Obviously Salesforce is trying to gun for Oracle. Salesforce has Dreamforce today and I've got Mark Benioff on Mad Money. You know, I would put Oracle with some contract of the 30 calls because I think that's fine. A lot of people could say, "Jimmy, you should be selling premium Oracle because it does nothing, but I'd rather be on the call side than the put side but I'm very conscious that Larry Ellison is a guy who is the most competitive guy in the world, and he will find a way and it will be a legal way, but he'll find a way to do the numbers slightly better. Debra Borchardt:
And they are near their 52-week high, so you like the calls better because of that. Okay. Jim Cramer:
I think Oracle's fine. It's not my favorite. I like IBM. That's an Action Alerts Plus stock name. I like it more. I like Accenture more. I like Salesforce.com. Salesforce.com, their December call is a real bargain. Even money.

Every year for 22 years, the UN General Assembly has condemned the U.S. embargo of Cuba on lopsided votes like 188 to 2. This year, the U.S. envoy Ronald Godard said
"The international community cannot be — cannot in good conscience ignore the ease and frequency with which the Cuban regime silences critics, disrupts peaceful assembly, impedes independent journalism and, despite positive reforms, continues to prevent some Cubans from leaving or returning to the island. The Cuban government continues its tactics of politically motivated detentions, harassment and police violence against Cuban citizens."
By this rationale, which could be greatly augmented in its application to the U.S., Godard justifies an embargo of America. Leaving that aside, the principle part of his statement that's the most troubling to me is (A) his assertion that the international community has a conscience, and (B) his assertion that the U.S. reading of that conscience justifies punishing the people of Cuba and anyone who wants to deal with them whose activities are prevented by the embargo.
Obviously, only individual persons have consciences. A government, a town, a community, a church, a club — none of these has a conscience. When the U.S. embargoes Cuba, it prevents its citizens (and pressures others) from exercising their own consciences. It infringes on the rights of individuals in the name of morality.
The key point here is that there is a basic opposition between rights of individuals and actions executed by a government in the name of morality, as opposed to actions that are taken in the name of law and support of rights. The (natural) law has to do with rights, not morality. The (natural) law has to do with what belongs to each person, not what they do with the property. A government that acts on the basis of a purported conscience or morality is no better than a government wedded to a church or specific religion that enforces the morality of that body. Enforcing the law and rights is not at all the same as enforcing morality. Law properly understood is not morality. It may happen that a moral code articulates an appropriate law that defends rights, such as "do not murder". In such cases, one must not confuse lawful rights with morality. "Do not steal" is an admonition not to violate property rights. Its basis is property rights, not the conscience of the community or the government, not a moral code in which it may be embedded.
So, is it the proper role of a government to act as a conscience for its own people who elect it? Is it the proper role of a government to act as a conscience for other peoples in the world, either those being embargoed or those who wish to deal with those being embargoed?
No, it is not. If we follow out Godard's line of thought, which is also the line of thought of, for example, Hillary Clinton, the result is endless warfare of a religious character, but disguised as being such and instead sold to the public as the "moral" thing to do.3:38 pm on November 8, 2013 Email Michael S.

RELEASED: June 12, 2006
Dr. Ronald N. Satz
EAU CLAIRE — A scholarship has been established in memory of Ronald N. Satz, University of Wisconsin-Eau Claire provost and vice chancellor emeritus, who died March 7 following a long battle with non-Hodgkin's lymphoma.
The Dr. Ronald N. Satz Memorial Scholarship will be awarded to a first-generation college student, immigrant to the United States or child of an immigrant, a minority or economically disadvantaged student, or a student who shows evidence of a strong commitment to social or economic justice and/or public service.
Satz retired from UW-Eau Claire in 2005 after 22 years of service as a faculty member and administrator, including six years as provost and vice chancellor from May 1999 to October 2005.
An American Indian historian with a specialty in Indian treaties and treaty rights, Satz taught history classes and continued his scholarly activities while serving in the university's administration.
When establishing the eligibility criteria for the scholarship, the family was motivated by what Satz said when delivering the August 1997 UW-Eau Claire commencement address, said his wife, Chris Satz. In that commencement address, Satz stated: "While you seek to climb up the stepladder of success in your chosen fields of endeavor … I ask that you remember to give something back in return to your families, to your communities, to society, and to humankind."
He also asked the graduates to be aware of "events taking place in [their] own communities; of children who need big brothers and big sisters; of the needs of those less well off than [themselves]; and of the prejudice and racism that confront economic, ethnic, religious, and other minorities."
"Our family's hope is that this scholarship will honor Ron's spirit by helping to provide an opportunity for higher education for first-generation college students, immigrants to the United States or children of immigrants, minority or economically disadvantaged individuals, or those committed to social and economic justice," Chris Satz said. "We also hope that it will serve as an enduring measure of our appreciation and gratitude for the role the Eau Claire community played in his life."
During his years at UW-Eau Claire, Satz held numerous administrative positions including founding dean of the College of Professional Studies, 1995-99; founding dean of the School of Human Sciences and Services, 1994-95; and dean of Graduate Studies and Research 1983-94, while concurrently serving as founding director of the Center of Excellence for Faculty and Undergraduate Student Research Collaboration, 1988-95.
Satz also was a consultant of Indian history and treaty rights to several American Indian tribes and organizations, including the Native American Rights Fund, the American Indian Language and Culture Education Board of the Governor of the State of Wisconsin, and the Great Lakes Indian Fish and Wildlife Commission.
In 1998, the Wisconsin Ojibwa tribes presented Satz's award-winning book, Chippewa Treaty Rights, into evidence before the U.S. Supreme Court in the Mille Lacs Case. The case resulted in the vindication of Chippewa treaty rights.
To make a gift to the Dr. Ronald N. Satz Scholarship fund, contact the UW-Eau Claire Foundation at (715) 836-5630 or go to the Foundation Web site. Gifts will be recognized as contributions to Fulfilling the Promise of Excellence, the UW-Eau Claire Foundation's comprehensive fundraising campaign to benefit UW-Eau Claire's people and programs.

Colouring Over the White Line details the history of black footballers in Britain. It records and celebrated the careers of many players, some of whom achieved great things, and others who were little more than journey-man footballers. Yet it is a history that should not have had to be written.
It has been said by many Black players that while they are proud of what they are- Black men - this is secondary to who they are: footballers. However, what unites them is the consistent response of prejudice to the colour of their skin which has forced them apart from their colleagues.
Colouring Over the White Line is, essentially, a collection of tales about the Black Diaspora in an increasingly multicultural Britain, given the structure and coherence through the prism of professional football.
These last two chapters discuss the impact Black footballers have had on the game in Britain over the last thirty years, the obstacles they faced and those yet unconquered.

Top 10 Reasons to Attend BWRC
1 Jan 2010 BWRCadmin 1
by Anita Clay
10. Attend an event organized professionally and efficiently by cool black women.
9. Check into a good hotel at a reasonable rate for an affordable conference that even makes provision for scholarships.
8. Meet smart, good-looking women of every age from all over the country (even Australia) who smile when they see you because they feel the bond.
7. Laugh, learn and even cry with mentors who make you feel you can write, publish and take the world by storm while reminding you that your gift comes from God.
6. Be in a place where there is no big me and little you. A place where you don't find out the person sharing, learning and laughing next to you in a workshop is a well-known presenter in the next session until you get there. Feel the love. Feel the respect.
5. Hear other women's (and men's) stories of survival, success and beyond. Be encouraged by their dreams and yours.
4. Get honest, straight information about costs, work, agents, legalities, marketing strategies and more stuff you didn't even know to ask about.
3. Meet a short, elderly man who reminds you of your father, or the father you wish you had, who cares enough to tell you not to drink out of the used water glasses and not to leave your computer in the room and when you do, doesn't tell you, "I told you so."
2. Feel special when you meet Tia Ross, and the other ladies (especially Monica Blache, the one who loaned us her dad) at registration and know they care about you even though they don't know you.
1. Find yourself. Leave believing in yourself and your talent. Leave with your heart burning inside, knowing you can and will write! AND you will come back, anywhere, any time.

The first victim of 9/11
Robert Emmett Judge was killed on Sept. 11, 2001. The son of Irish Catholic immigrants, Judge was one of a pair of fraternal twins. He grew up in Brooklyn, N.Y., during the great depression and developed, at an early age, a love for the poor, often giving his last quarter to beggars on the street.
Judge's father died of a slow and painful illness when the boy was 6 and Judge worked to shine shoes to earn money for the family. At the age of 15, he entered a formation process to become a Franciscan.
In 1961, he was ordained a priest at Holy Name College in Washington, D.C., and took "Mychal" as his religious name. From 1961 to 1986, Father Mychal Judge served at St. Anthony Shrine in Boston, St. Joseph Parish in East Rutherford, N.J., Sacred Heart Parish in Rochelle Park, N.J., and St. Joseph Parish in West Milford, N.J.
For three years he served as assistant to the president at Siena College in Loudonville, N.Y. In 1986, he was assigned to the monastery of St. Francis of Assisi Church on West 31st Street, New York, where he lived and worked until his death in 2001.
Around 1971, Judge became an alcoholic, although he never showed obvious signs. In 1978, with the support of Alcoholics Anonymous, he became sober and continued to share his personal story of recovery to help others facing addiction.
In 1992, Father Judge was appointed a chaplain of the Fire Department of New York City. As chaplain, he offered encouragement and prayers at fires, rescues, and hospitals, and counseled firemen and their families, often working 16-hour days. One person said, "His whole ministry was about love. Mychal loved the fire department and they loved him."
Judge was also well known for ministering to the homeless, the hungry, recovering alcoholics, people with AIDS, the sick, injured, immigrants, and those alienated by the Church.
Father Judge once gave the winter coat off his back to a homeless woman in the street, later saying, "She needed it more than me." When he anointed a man who was dying of AIDS, the man asked him, "Do you think God hates me?" Father Judge just picked him up, kissed him, and silently rocked him in his arms.
When Islamic terrorists struck the Twin Towers on 9/11, Judge, in his role as a fire chaplain, rushed to the scene where he administered Last Rites to the dead lying on the streets. Witnesses said that, as firefighters rushed into the inferno, Father Judge was pronouncing absolution, knowing that many would not return.
When the South Tower collapsed, a chunk of concrete hit the priest on the head as he was praying. He was killed immediately.
Three firefighters, assisted by two civilian bystanders, gently carried Father Judge's body through the dust and smoke to nearby St. Peter's Church and lovingly laid it on the altar. Judge's body bag was labeled "Victim #0001," officially making him the first victim of 9/11.
Over 3,000 people attended his funeral, which was presided over by Cardinal Edgar Egan. Former President Bill Clinton, who attended the funeral, said, that Judge's death was "a special loss."
Ironically, were Father Mychal Judge alive, he would not be welcomed at the 10th anniversary observation. New York Mayor Michael Bloomberg has banned all clergy and all prayer from the upcoming 9/11 memorial service planned to commemorate the tragic events of that day.

Excellent comments Nuk1 and Main Stream!
Ironically, were Father Mychal Judge alive, he would not be welcomed at the 10th anniversary observation. New York Mayor Michael Bloomberg has banned all clergy and all prayer from the upcoming 9/11 memorial service planned to commemorate the tragic events of that day.
The above is why people get so annoyed with organized religion: the actual truth is meaningless if it gets in the way of firing up other fundies into a lather about how the country is going to Hell if there can't be public displays, prayers and ceremonies that are Christian-based.
There is no "ban" on the clergy attending this memorial ceremony and never has been. They can attend like anyone else. What is "banned" is any religious prayers by any of the speakers at the formal ceremony, something that was never an issue the last 9 years until this year when some of the fanatics like Tony Perkins and Richard Land suddenly realized they had been missing an opportunity to whine, get outraged, and then get some more donations.
Preachers are egotistic, extremely.
If not allowed on the stand to pray, etc., they are banned!
Apparently the mere recognition of other religions or no religions is verbotten!
It was a very heroic deed that Mr. Robert Judge took on that day in the face of danger and incomprehensible evil. I commend Mr. Judge for what he did and It is tragic that he died that day, along with thousands of other people on 9/11. I trust that he will also be remembered at the 9/11 memorial ceremony this year, by his friends and family members.
However, your complaint, and the complaint of your fellow Christians, that prayers and clergy will not be part of the ceremony shows how insensitive and misguided you, and your kind, continue to be in the public sphere. The many articles and comments I've read, yours included, from Christians and clergy, wringing their hands that they won't be included, makes you all sound like spoiled children. Not all of the people who perished on 9/11 were Christian and, most likely, there were many who would even call themselves atheists or humanists, not following any religion at all. The ceremony this year, and every year, is for the families, their friends and our country, to remember those who perished and for all of us to try and gain strength from those memories, to move forward. For you, and other clergy and Christians, to find fault with this ceremony shows how arrogant you all continue to be, even at a time when our country would like to remember 9/11 in our own ways. Are you so blinded by your own religion that you overlook the fact that other people who perished on 9/11 were of different belief systems? Hindu, Muslim, Jewish, Wiccan, neo-Pagan, Humanist, Atheist, Agnostic.... the list goes on.
The fact is, clergy have never been an official part of the past 10 remembrance ceremonies at ground zero. Instead of prayers led by clergy, the events have featured moments of silence during which audiences may reflect and pray on their own, if they wish. "Six such moments are planned this year -- two to recall when each of the twin towers was struck, two to recall when each tower fell, one to mark Flight 93, which crashed in Pennsylvania, and one to remember the attack on the Pentagon."
Please remember what Jesus preached about prayer... I wish that you, and your fellow believers who are complaining so loudly, would actually embrace the example that he set for you:
Matthew 6:5-6: "And when thou prayest, thou shalt not be as the hypocrites are: for they love to pray standing in the synagogues and in the corners of the streets, that they may be seen of men....when thou prayest, enter into thy closet and when thou has shut thy door, pray to thy Father which is in secret...."

The 1964-2009 Ford Mustang has spent 42 years as one of the leading names in the American performance car market, and one of the best selling cars in US history. While the sleek, sporty lines get the attention, the Ford Mustang never fails pack a strong-running engine. Ford also always offers at least one small, efficient, economical Mustang engine for those more concerned with the look of the Mustang than they are with brute performance.
American "muscle" like the 2009 Ford Mustang GT is all the rage in Europe. Bizarre as that may sound, there is a real thirst for Americana among Europeans. Cars feature heavily on the list of US exports that are in high demand. More than any other American car, the Ford Mustang is a big hitter across the Atlantic Ocean.
In 1968 a handful of Ford dealerships and experienced Mustang racer Bob Tasca collaborated to produce the Cobra Jet Mustang. Originally, they intended to offer 50 Cobra Jet's, but in the three year run of the moniker, closer to 2,900 were made. The 68 CJs came with the 428 cubic inch engine, making 335 horsepower and 445 lb-ft of torque, and it was fed by a ram air induction setup. This was among the quickest

"These stickers are very cute and very well done. The customer sales rep was very cooperative in helping me customize the writing and make it more legible. They also came in extremely quickly! We received the order within days of placing it!"
"These gift tags were wonderful. I was worried they wouldn't stick well on mason jars, but they worked out great. The glue is strong enough that they didn't peel off on their own. The text above the names is a bit small but you could still read it up close. Overall, these are great and the price is fantastic. They looked beautiful on the mason jars (I had homemade jam wedding favours)."
"I was looking for something to close the envelopment and I was using the Flourish Title invitation. I didn't like the gift tags for that invitation because I couldn't custom the color and it says "Thanks". So I came across this...and it works well with the Flourish Title invitation. I had them match my custom colors, and it was perfect. Color is great, quality is high. They are stickers and peel off easily. Highly recommend!"
"Loved these. They are much larger than we thought! But still very nice! It's sad to think they will be ripped when guest open the envelopes!"
"I paired this design with "Tea Poppies" invitations, same color scheme. I used as the envelope seal as these have adhesive backs. My one regret was instead of printing bride to be's entire name, should have taken advantage to inform recipient that the shower is a surprise as I omitted from body of invitation. example: Kim...shhhhh or: Kim...a Surprise A nice touch matching address labels!"

I have no objections to sharing. Have got some good ideas from odd

I've got nothing to offer.
There are books and sites, but someting else might show up. Can't

Did you happen to upgrade x-org? Small fonts can be cause by running X
in low dpi (75x75) with a high resolution (ie 1600x1200). If you
upgraded x-org, and had your xserver configured with a higher dpi
(100x100), there's a chance you're server configuration was reset to the
default 75x75. If this is the case, you need to determine which method
is used to start X and modify the server config file and add -dpi 100
(or what ever value you prefer).
You can also check your current dpi setting from a terminal in X with
something like:
xdpyinfo | grep -A 3 screen
You should see something like:
default screen number: 0
number of screens: 1
screen #0:
dimensions: 1600x1200 pixels (406x305 millimeters)
resolution: 100x100 dots per inch
depths (7): 24, 1, 4, 8, 15, 16, 32
The resolution line shows the dpi.
An good docment (slightly dated) that covers fonts is X is:
Section 2.1 and 2.2 talk about some simple chages that can make
a big difference.
I also found this document which seems to be current, but I have not had
a chance to fully review it yet:
> 2. xfs - I can't suss out how to get this installed... and wouw it help
> the above situ ?
xfs is no longer built by default, and has been moved to a USE flag.
To build xfs you should run the following command to add XFS to your
/etc/portage/package.use file and rebuild X:
echo "x11-base/xorg-x11 font-server" >> /etc/portage/package.use
You should note that Xft is now the preferred method of handling fonts
in xorg, and Xfs in considered insecure, so that is why it is disabled
by default.
