|I am new to lawn care as I purchased my first home in late Fall last year. At the time, the grass was quite beautiful and all the neighbors loved it. Winter came not too long after and it went dormant, eventually turning a light brown like everyone else's grass, so I think that is expected.
However, today I noticed several darker brown spots in it and am not sure what it is. Disease? Dead? They are all smaller but somewhat in the same area.
It is Meyers Zoysia grass in Atlanta. Temperatures havent been terribly cold although there have been some colder days lately (for Atlanta...). When it was still growing in fall, I mowed it regularly to the tallest recommended height (2.5 inches maybe?). Right before Winter, I put winterized with fertilizer (new to that too, although I didnt notice any issues at the time so think it turned out ok). Also used to water it with irrigation system using same settings previous owners have for years. Note that I have since cut it off for the last couple months or so since it is winter and dormant - is this ok? I never see other people watering in Winter. Now its currently in the 40s at night so I dont think it would freeze, but dont know if its necessary. I also poked at the ground and it isn't hard so seems soft enough.
Does anyone have any idea what this may be? I did not see it in other yards. Most of them have landscapers, and the prior owners did as well, but I am more of a DIY kind of guy and feel like I should at least start off caring for my first lawn.

|It's hard to see exactly, but it looks like grassy weed skeletons. This isn't uncommon at all during the winter. Broomsedge, Crabgrass, and other common native grasses will either go dormant or die off (depending on whether they are annuals or perennials) during the winter. The color of the dead top-growth differs from one grass to another, thus the contrasting color in the spots.
As far as watering, you don't need to water during the winter, and if we continue to get 1" of rainfall or more per week, you won't need to supplement with water in the summer (and believe me, it's hard for a lawn professional to say those words).
I offer fertilization and weed control services, and do-it-yourself homeowners are always welcome to look over my program outline and follow my tips on Facebook as I do seasonal updates.
My first advice is to go ahead and start with a pre-emergent application. Look for the active ingredient Prodiamine, which will have much better results on annual grassy weeds, than the Pendimethalin you find in home improvement stores.
Good luck

|Do you have any pets? Have you considered that dog urine will kill of your grass in a similar manner?
Our grass looked very similar to this about a year ago - our 2 yr old lab was ruining it! We used dog rocks in their water bowl and have had a green lush lawn ever since - if you have a dog - give it a go.

|For pre emergent application or starting with early spring fertilizer in the next few weeks (as many resources say), does that still apply to GA? I have also seen things that say dont fertilize Zoysia in GA before May due to potential for large patch or something (which I also thought this could be the start of based off the following post and image: http://www.walterreeves.com/gardening-q-and-a/large-patch-in-zoysia/ )
I dont have any dogs but there are plenty in the neighborhood that pass by, and it is near the curb.
However, I checked the other grass on other side of our driveway (plenty along curb there too) and didnt see any similar marks. Also, none of the other houses seemed to have this, although I did not check close up. Unless this one particular area is the sole area dogs use, I am not sure that is it. Also, back in mid - late fall when we purchased there were plenty of dogs at that time as well but I didnt notice anything.

|Large patch is a leaf and stem disease that occurs during warm humid periods. It usually occurs in Zoysia lawns that are over-fertilized with high Nitrogen during periods with frequent evening thunderstorms and night time temperatures over 75 degrees (evening thunderstorms lead to guttation, which gives the pathogen all it needs to spread). If you maintain weekly mowing, avoid watering in the evening, and keep a good balance of nutrients you aren't very likely to see large patch.
As far as pet damage, this isn't uncommon, however the damage would have been done during the growing season, and the discoloration would have been very noticeable. Pet damage is similar to a fertilizer spill in that the urine has a high concentration of urea (nitrogen), which draws water from the root and dehydrates the plant very quickly. I am glad to hear that there is a solution, I was not familiar with dog rocks, so I'll have to look up more information to provide to customers with dogs.
As for Spring fertilization, most granular pre-emergents use Potash as the dispersing agent. Potash improves the cell turgor in plants, making them more drought tolerant and less susceptible to disease. Don't begin Nitrogen fertilization until the lawn is at least 50% green. Zoysia is a low Nitrogen turf, so during the summer, avoid high Nitrogen fertilizer, especially during hot humid periods. Also, use a slow release fertilizer to avoid a burst of new growth. Too much new growth at one time is often all a pathogen needs to get into the lawn.

CUNA Joins 8 Other Trade Associations in Interchange Letter (Misc News: April 13, 2011)
CUNA is joining with eight other trade associations to point out "the extraordinary breadth and depth of organizations and government officials" over the Federal Reserve's proposed debit interchange rules.
In a joint letter sent to Fed Chairman Ben Bernanke, U.S. Treasury Secretary Tim Geithner, and NCUA Chair Debbie Matz, as well as other key regulators, the groups cite critical comments made by the FDIC, NCUA, Comproller of Currency, several senators and other groups, CUNA News Now reported.
"We particularly urge the (Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System) to take into account the policy concerns of otther federal regulators who are involved in the consultation process and the legal views expressed by the Department of Justice, as the board's own counsel," the letter says. The letter is signed by leaders of the American Bankers Association, Independent Community Bankers of America, The Clearing House, The Financial Services Roundtable, Consumer Bankers Association, Mid-size Bankers Coalition of America, National Bankers Association and NAFCU.
CUNA and other critics of the new interchange rules are taking a multi-pronged approach in the battle against the new interchange rules. It is supporting efforts in Congress to pass legislation delaying implementation so it can be further studied, supporting a legal challenge filed by TCF National Bank and asking the Fed to reconsider its proposed rule.
The proposed rule would cap debit interchange fees at 12 cents instead of the average 44 cents currently charged.
Credit union backers have made more than 85,000 separate contacts to members of Congress since CUNA launched an action alert last month. Industry leaders have called this type of direct, grassroots advocacy is vital to the interchange fight.

TOM THE DANCING BUG: Hey, Kids! The World You're On... has CORPORATIONS!

milenkovitch says:
um so what are the people gonna do about this
or are we just gonna laugh through the pain
and read comics about it and feel all political because we can read comics
Matthew says:
I like this – how it makes fun of the "corporations are people" quote, then points out how we're expected to treat corporations like citizens in every way… until it comes to taxes. Well done, sir.
Matthew Elmslie says:
It's not the right to vote that gets me. (Well, it does. But not as much.) It's the right to run for office.
jakelawson says:
I wanna see that corporations long-form birth certficate first!
Boomer says:
Humm, corporations have been sucking the life blood from mankind several hundred years. Do they make a stake big enough to rid us of them?
Guysmiley says:
Perfect. I also love the "if you tax the rich / corporations, you take away jobs!" reasoning. At some point reality is going to have to set in. The wealth disparity in the US is getting entirely out of hand, and the people in charge are in the pocket of the rich. At some point that becomes a formula for Really Bad Things.
jphilby says:
It has been a formula for really bad things for many, many decades. We've just been enjoying them more and more. Eventually we become Latin America.
hoole says:
Why is this suddenly a controversial topic? Corporate personality has existed for a while, since the 19th century in the UK, and probably as long in the US.
strangefriend says:
Until the 1890s, corporations didn't have constitutional rights. Towns & cities could pass ordinances curtailing their power to say, dump pig entrails & feces into the local river. Now they can't.
Bass says:
None of the corporations in my city dump pig entrails and feces in the local river.
strangefriend says:
Oh, I see, they just do it in Alabama & Louisiana.
Antinous / Moderator says:
None of the corporations in my city dump pig entrails and feces in the local river.
Funnily enough, you rarely see a big, brick factory with the slogan Dumping Pig Entrails & Feces In Your River Since 1879 painted on the side.
MrJM says:
A central point of debate in recent years is what role corporate money plays and should play in democratic politics. Tillman Act of 1907, banned corporate political contributions to national campaigns. But relatively recent Supreme Court decisions have given corporate money political power: Buckley v. Valeo (1976) ruled that political spending is protected by the First Amendment's right to free speech, i.e. money = speech, while Citizens United (2010) ruled that corporate political spending is protected, holding that corporations have a First Amendment right to free speech.
But you knew that already, didn't you.
Amy Zucker Morgenstern says:
Maybe because, even though Santa Clara County v. Southern Pacific Railroad was decided in the late 19th century, we're finally getting mad as hell and deciding not to take it anymore. Maybe because our country claims to be broke while refusing to ask our wealthiest corporations for a red cent. In other words, the corporations and their government stooges have gone too far.
altstuder says:
you are awesome.
jphilby says:
Since 1886 in the US – Santa Clara County v. Southern Pacific Railroad
altstuder says:
because people are suddenly aware of the topic.
microcars says:
call me a bigot, but I wouldn't let my daughter date one!
greenglyph says:
Why not? At least if they're dating she'll likely receive a nice evening out before the corporation has its way with her.
eeyore says:
"Why is this suddenly a controversial topic? Corporate personality has
existed for a while, since the 19th century in the UK, and probably as
long in the US. "
Check your history, until the early 20th century, in the US a corporate charter could not be issued unless the filers could show some public or societal benefit. "Corporate Personhood" is linked back to a particular Supreme Court decision, however, that convention is based purely on transcripts of deliberation and oral arguments. The *actual* ruling made no such conclusions.
The idea of limitation of liability or "the corporate veil" is an important one. However, in modern corporations, it has overly indulged. In theory, a corporate charter can be revoked for corporate malfeasance. In practice, it has never occurred.
We will never have a stable, or ethical corporate system until officers and senior management are held criminally responsible for the criminal policies of the companies they manage. No, a CEO should not go to prison for the actions of a single bad actor in his organization – however, it would be completely rational to charge Rupert Murdoch, or senior members of his board with felony trespass if they knew it was happening, or criminal negligence if they did not.
Of course, here in the states, we can't even charge bankers or government officials when we have written evidence and an unimpeachable paper trail.
Archer Sully says:
What I like most about Citizens United is that by recognizing personhood for artificial constructs it clearly sets the stage for the great Robot Lib movement of the 2030's.
Jack Holmes says:
Well, will you look at that. A TTDB comic that doesn't make me frothy with rage and annoyance for once. Well played, Bolling. Well played.
Ramone says:
It seems corporations are the only living beings immune to those immutable, imminent two laws that apply to the rest of us.
Johnny says:
Lucas Zeidner says:
ok as well as a fan of the subject matter im also a fan of the art of this he does an amazing job replicating little kids magazines and the no brainer language they use… but wheres percival?
gjk says:
Mmm . . . them pig entrails can make for some mighty fine eating. Yum.
CelebrityPlugs says:
Go to americanselect.org its a great idea for a truly open election process. The promise of a 3rd party president chosen by the people sounds really good to me
benher says:
Anyone who has seen Alien should know not to trust The Corporation :(
Farley Smith says:
I guess some people never heard of the US Revolution which was primarily to get out from under Crazy King George and the India Tea company. The Boston Tea party ironically was about getting rid of corporations, which our founding fathers went out of their way to prohibit in the US constitution. Corporations came back with a vengeance when hack lawyer for hire A Lincoln gave them super citizenship around the same time he presided over the re-emergence of fascism in a little thing called the US civil war. Talk about the military industrial complex. The industrial (corporate) North did very well with that number.
altstuder says:
Dimwits. Nice. What is this "revolution" you speak of, Master Farley?
Sigmund Ausfaller says:
AmericansElect.org talks a good game, but they get their money from wealthy hedge fund managers. Caveat emptor: http://irregulartimes.com/index.php/archives/2011/07/24/no-special-interest-funding-for-americans-elect-new-york-times-reports-serious-hedge-fund-money/
Bill Ding says:
Corporations do pay taxes… 25% of their profits on average…
Eric Wiland says:
Corporations pay taxes on their profits. You pay taxes on your income. That's a nice deal.
Also, learn what "effective tax rate" means.
Bill Ding says:
I know what ETR is, I'm just pointing out that the comic made it seem that US corporations do not even pay taxes, which isn't the case at all. In reality, US companies today pay a pretty high tax rate compared to the rest of the world.

Olepolos Country Club
Olepolos Road
Kiserian, Rift Valley, Kenya (Click for map)
Tel: +254 (0)716 737423
Email: [email protected]
Olepolos on Facebook
Before I made it out to Olepolos Country Club, I used to often find myself in conversations like the following:
Speaker 1: Yesterday, I had a great day hanging out with friends at Olepolos.
Biche: Olepolos? Where's that?
Speaker 1: You've never been?! It's a place in the hills on the way to Magadi. It's so beautiful!
Biche: Oh really? What goes on there?
Speaker 1: It's a great place where you can sit outside, eat meat, and drink overlooking the most amazing view. We should organize a trip and go sometime…
Somehow, we always never ended up going.
One day, a colleague, who had recently joined the organization I worked for, invited me to join him and a group of his friends for a day trip to Olepolos. Keen to finally visit this place that I had heard so much about (as well as to get to know my workmate better :-)), I promptly accepted to join the group on the following Saturday.
We met in town at 10 a.m. and headed out as a group to Olepolos. The ride took about an hour and a half and took us in the direction of Ongata-Rongai, Kiserian, and beyond, in the direction of Magadi. A little after passing Kiserian, we began a descent into the plains below, on a winding road through the hills. When our descent tapered out, we began to see signposts, all with names beginning with Olepolos. It dawned on me that this was the name, not only of our destination, but also the surrounding area. I knew that we would reach our destination soon.
As expected, I soon saw a signpost on the left side of the road that read 'Olepolos Country Club'. At this point, we turned off the main road onto a dirt path that would lead us to our destination. We first came upon some Maasai manyattas. I later came to learn that the Maasai who live in these manyattas tend to the livestock that is slaughtered at Olepolos, as well as cook, and serve as waiters to the clientele. On subsequent visits, I also noticed that late in the afternoon, a group of these Maasai form a dance group and walk from banda to banda performing for the clients.
When the car stopped, we saw bandas and benches spread out in all directions. We walked towards what seemed to be the central banda and then I saw it: a most breathtaking view! For as far as I could see, in the direction of Magadi, was the most pristine landscape: hills and plains below, a beautiful blue sky above. The view at Olepolos Country Club sets the tone for your entire stay there. With no settlements in sight, the view makes you truly aware of the grandeur of nature, of which we are only a small part. It was exhilarating!
That day, we sat at one of the bandas near the butchery and the smaller bar near it. We (or rather the men in our group) selected a whole goat to be slaughtered, and then we proceeded to eat the goat in every form possible – boiled meat, choma, mutura (goat sausage), soup, and 'fry'. The meat was delicious.
The bar at Olepolos stocks only the most basic drinks, but Olepolos allows customers to bring in drinks for a small corkage fee. I remember on that first day, I ordered a 250 ml bottle of Gilbey's gin, which cost me Ksh. 180. I am not sure whether or not that was a fluke, but that is cheaper than what it costs in the supermarket. As you can see, Olepolos Country Club is inexpensive. The one thing that always disappoints me with the drinks at Olepolos, however, is the fact that I can rarely get ice cubes. Nowadays, I simply bring along my own ice cubes from Nairobi.
What else do you need to know about Olepolos Country Club? First, Olepolos opens only during the weekend and on public holidays. Second, the road leading to and from Olepolos is narrow, winding, and tortuous. This is not a big issue as you head out to Olepolos, especially if you drive at a safe speed, but it is something to watch out for on the return journey. I recommend leaving Olepolos by 5 p.m. when it is still light and to have a designated driver, who will not consume any alcohol, to ensure a safe journey back to Nairobi.
Spending the day at Olepolos is one of the most refreshing things that I can think of doing on a weekend or a public holiday. If you have never been, trust me and try it out as soon as possible.
If you've been, do you agree with my review?
Looking forward to hearing what you have to say,

AdAge Insights has just published a new report called "Dudes to Dads: U.S. Men's Attitudes Toward Life, Family, Work."
A portion of the report looks at how men of different ages view all types of advertising and the results were mostly predictable except for this:
Millennials report they pay considerable interest in the ads they see most often in shopping malls, followed closely by medical offices and bars or pubs. Gen Xers and boomers also notice ads in malls and medical offices, but to a lesser degree.
Medical offices? Are there a lot of ads in the doctor's office? I guess I've seen charts with ads for pharmaceuticals at the bottom but it's not like the exam room is plastered with Got Milk ads. Strange.

CRUNCH TIME | Bread-and-butter-pickles make a cool counterpoint to the fiery spices in the chicken's breading. James Ransom for The Wall Street Journal, Food Styling by Heather Meldrom, Prop Styling by Rebecca Donnelly
The Chef: Mark Steuer
Mark Steuer Illustration by Michael Hoeweler for The Wall Street Journal
His Restaurants: Carriage House and the Bedford, both in Chicago
What He's Known For: Refining Chicagoans' understanding of regional Southern cooking. Bringing serious interpretations of South Carolina's Lowcountry cuisine up north.
CHEF MARK STEUER created this streamlined fried chicken recipe, his third Slow Food Fast contribution, with the demands of a busy restaurant in mind. Lucky for the rest of us, it translates to a quick and tasty option for home kitchens, too.
"We went through 10 trials, me and my two sous-chefs," Mr. Steuer said. "What we ended up with, while not as spicy as a Nashville hot"—the fiery style indigenous to the city of the same name—"is definitely moving in that direction."
A generous hand with seasoning is a signature of Mr. Steuer's cooking. Here copious quantities of cumin, cayenne, Tabasco and paprika eliminate the need for marinating—and skipping that traditional step accomplishes more than just saving time. "I find that when you marinate the chicken, the extra moisture turns to steam and the breading doesn't stick as well. I hate it when there is not enough crunch," he said.
These boneless chicken thighs, breaded and fried to a crisp, come with bread-and-butter pickles and a drizzle of honey to temper the spices' kick. Perfect for a dinner party, they're also an easy weeknight meal for any cook who enjoys a little heat.
—Kitty Greenwald
Spicy Fried Chicken With Honey and Pickles
Total Time: 35 minutes Serves: 4
4 cups canola oil
2 cups all-purpose flour
4 tablespoons salt
2 tablespoons garlic powder
2 tablespoons onion powder
1 tablespoon cayenne
1 tablespoon paprika
1 teaspoon cumin seeds, toasted and lightly crushed
2 cups buttermilk
2 tablespoons hot sauce
4 boneless chicken thighs (about 1½ pounds)
Bread-and-butter pickles, for serving
Honey, for drizzling
More From Mark Steuer
Plus, Recipes From:
1. Pour oil into a Dutch oven fitted with a deep-frying thermometer. Set pot over medium-low heat and warm oil to 300 degrees.
2. Meanwhile, in a large bowl, mix flour with salt, garlic and onion powders, cayenne, paprika and cumin until combined. Divide seasoned flour between two wide bowls. In a third wide bowl, whisk buttermilk with hot sauce until combined.
3. Working with one chicken thigh at a time, pat meat dry then dredge through flour mixture, dip in buttermilk, and dredge through second bowl of flour. Repeat process a second time so each piece is well coated.
4. Working in batches if necessary to avoid crowding pot, carefully place chicken into heated oil. Fry chicken, flipping once during cooking, until internal temperature reaches 165 degrees and exterior is well crisped and deep golden, about 14 minutes per batch. Adjust heat as necessary to keep oil temperature steady throughout frying. Place fried chicken on a paper-towel-lined tray. Serve chicken with pickles and a drizzle of honey.

This is a wonderful recipe to use up those strawberries. The combination of goat cheese and strawberry in the salad is refreshing and clean. The balsamic and berry reduction is absolutly lovely over the tenderloin. I will definatly make this again. It was better the next day for leftovers.

NYC Clean Streets Programs- Kingsbridge Road Commercial District
The NYC Clean Streets Program objectives are twofold: 1) To support local merchant associations in keeping their districts clean; and 2) To build the capacity of newly developed merchant groups. The area for the program includes Kingsbridge Road from the Grand Concourse to Sedgwick Avenue, and Jerome Avenue from 192nd Street to 195th Streets.
As part of the NYC Clean Streets Program, SBS and MPC are also coordinating a graffiti removal blitz along East Kingsbridge Road and Jerome Avenue. Soon afterwards, the NYC Clean Streets Program will also be providing uniformed sanitation workers to pick up trash, clean tree pits, remove posters and bills from signposts, and make the streets and sidewalks cleaner, more attractive places to do business and shop.
Avenue NYC Program
The marketing strategy development is a cooperative one. Other interested parties are four institutions; Montefiore Medical Center, Fordham University, the Bronx Zoo and the NY Botanical Garden; and two BIDS at either end of our area, local merchant associations and others.

Give in to Cravings Without Going Overboard
Trust yourself not to eat the whole box. Here's how to start
By Geneen Roth
Special Offers
My husband, Matt, returned from a business trip last week and asked me this question: If you had to give up either hot water or sex, which would it be?
Matt teaches company executives about the value of laughter and play, and I trust him completely, but still. Hot water or sex?
Tell me about your business trip, I said nonchalantly.
He laughed. Just answer the question.
Could we still kiss? Hug? I asked.
He nodded his head yes. Now, answer the question.
Sex, I said after a few long minutes.
OK, he said, heres the next question. If you had to give up either hot water or laughter, what would you choose?
Hot water, I said. Without laughter, the rest wouldnt mean very much.
As I pondered the choices, I asked myself what I would have chosen if hed asked me about giving up chocolate.
I believe in laughter, I really do, but I also believe in chocolate.
Ive gone without hot water, sex, and laughter, but in the past 15 years, I cant remember going without chocolate for more than 24 hours. Chocolate makes me happy to be alive. Every day, after lunch, I have one piece of 77 percent bittersweet chocolate.
One piece, thats all.
One piece fills the mouth, saturates the taste buds, evokes heaven on earth.
During my years of dieting and bingeing, I never thought I could eat one piece of anything. It was either the whole box or nothing at all. I was afraid of food. I was afraid to give myself what I loved.
As Ive worked with people over the past couple of decades, Ive discovered that most feel the same way I did. They dont believe its possible to eat just one piece of anything they love. They believe that once they start they will never stop. They think they need control and willpower to stop emotional eating, which means depriving themselves of foods they love.
I understand why, given our past experiences of eating like starving dogs, deprivation seems like the only wise choice. However, I want to suggest a new way to eat foods you love: Consider taking one piece. One bite. One chunk.

Democratic Governance
Democratic governance challenges in Asia and the Pacific are diverse, ranging from inequitable service delivery to information in bureaucratic cultures, weaknesses in parliamentary oversight, lack of equal access to justice and exclusion of marginalized groups, such as indigenous peoples. The ongoing global economic crisis and compounded democracy deficits in the region have, in turn, deterred the attainment of the Millennium Development Goals (MDG).More

Rinehart jibe insults workers: SwanPUBLISHED: 30 Aug 2012 09:58:00 | UPDATED: 31 Aug 2012 07:28:08PUBLISHED: 31 Aug 2012 PRINT EDITION: 31 Aug 2012

Gina Rinehart's call for Australians who are "jealous" of the rich to "do something" about it was insulting to millions of workers, Treasurer Wayne Swan says.
Mrs Rinehart, who has an estimated wealth of nearly $30 billion and was crowned this year by BRW as the world's richest woman, said jealous people should "not just sit there and complain".
"Make more money yourself – spend less time drinking, or smoking and socialising, and more time working," the mining magnate wrote in Australian Resources and Investment magazine.
Her comments were "an insult to the millions of Australian workers who go to work and slog it out to feed the kids and pay the bills", Mr Swan said. "The big question is whether Tony Abbott will endorse Gina Rinehart's social policies as he's endorsed her tax, industrial relations and environmental policies."
Even fellow mining billionaire Clive Palmer disagrees with Mrs Rinehart, noting he likes to socialise, drink and go to the footy. "If she doesn't want to do that, she can make money all day," he told the Brisbane Times.
In the article, Mrs Rinehart calls for the government to cut red tape, green tape, minimum wages and taxes. Lamenting a weakening mining industry, she takes a tongue-in-cheek jab at the boom that "would not end. We miners were going to manage the first boom in history that would last forever, and were going to pour billions and billions each year into Canberra's coffers."
She champions her friends who have "built something for Australia" including crayfish king Michael Kailis, "Hungry" Jack Cowin and transport mogul Lindsay Fox, saying: "There is no monopoly on becoming a millionaire."

An independent review of Bemidji State Universitys online masters programs in education has ranked it as one of the best buys in America for teachers and educators seeking affordable, online advanced degrees.
The Best Online College ranking by Get Educated ranked BSUs online masters in special education as the 15th-most affordable special education degree in the nation at $13,436. However, nine of the 14 programs ranked ahead of Bemidji State have variable rates for out-of-state tuition that are higher than in-state rates. For students not living in the state of Minnesota, Bemidji State would rank as the seventh-most affordable online special education masters program in the country.
Bemidji States special education masters program also ranked 67th on a list of 114 best buys for masters degrees in a broad range of education-related fields such as education, teaching, instructional technology, education leadership and special education. Bemidji States masters degree in education ranked 84th on that list of 114.
In a statement, Get Educated calls Bemidji State and other ranked schools an elite group of innovators ensuring higher education access for teachers and educators in a time when college affordability has become a critical national concern.
The Get Educated Best Buy rankings are based on a comprehensive review of 367 online education masters programs offered at 129 regionally accredited colleges and universities. The award indicates an online education program has been independently reviewed and found to offer a high-quality online degree for educators and teachers at a cost that ranks below the national average. Get Educateds comprehensive national ranking survey found that average to be $16,730.62.
This years rankings are based on a review of regionally accredited and regional candidate schools offering online degrees in the fall of 2011. The published cost is an estimated sticker price for the entire online masters degree and typically reflects the most-affordable option. Actual costs will vary by student, and factors such as transfer credits at entrance, degree-specific prerequisite requirements and financial aid availability will affect the final price, according to Get Educated.
Get Educated is a consumer group which provides fact-based comparative data on 3,000 accredited online programs as a service to help students locate the highest-quality online education programs in selected career areas. Rankings will be updated in 2014.

Last week, John McCain described his veep-vetting process, "jokingly," as this: "You know, basically it's a Google." His omission of the word "search" — a Google "search" — was very shocking to every reporter and teevee personality; it showed that John McCain is OMFG so old while, in contrast, reporters and teevee personalities are so young. Anyway, this soul-crushing narrative about the proper usage of "Google" has taken another fake turn: Barack Obama mentioned "Google" three times in his speech yesterday. Correctly! And if you say "Google" three times correctly into a bathroom mirror, a magic troll appears and steals John McCain away to Narnia. [Jonathan Martin]

Barack's triple shout-out to this Google fella is actually an Ezekiel prophecy come to pass. For lo! it was written:
Ezekiel 38:2. Son of man, set thy face against Gog, of the land of Magog, the chief prince of Meshech and Tubal, and prophesy against him,
Ezekiel 38:3. And you shall say; So said the Lord God: Behold, I am against you, Gog, the prince, the head of Meshech and Tubal.
I thought it was if you said his name backwards (niaCcM Nhoj) and it would send John McCain back to Dimension X.
Let me see and use this google doohicky to find out…
John McCain's google is a google everyone can believe in. Even AARP AOL users.
@bathroom mirror: Google, Google, Google!
Why should any of this matter? Why, Calvin Coolidge famously refused to have a telephone installed in the White House, and his administration turned out just fine. There was a little mess immediately afterwards, but I'm sure that had nothing to do with him.
Which tube do i use to get to teh google?
A military occupation for a googl years.
googol = 10100 (10,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000)
googolplex = It is the number of states a system can be in that consists of 1098 particles, each of which can be in googol states. Alternatively, it is the number of states a system can be in that consists of a googol particles, each of which can be in 10 states, or a system of 3.32 googol particles, each of which has 2 possible states.
I do recall, was it miss rex or mrs. bloomquist (grade eschool teachers) dropping the term "googleplex".
The Real JR Revisted
Actually, McCain probably thought he meant "googol" which is a 1 followed by a hundred zeros which almost fully represents his age which is why he was confused about the reference. It's totally understandable.
Canmon (the Inadequate)
At least he didn't say he was going to use Infoseek.
McCain's Google
Who's the most important man this country ever knew?
Do you know what politician I have reference to?
Well, it isn't Mr. Barack, and it isn't Mr. Barr.
I've got a hunch that to that bunch I'm going to introduce:
(Again you're wrong and to this throng I'm going to Introduce:)
McCainy Google, with the goo-goo-goo-ga-ly eyes.
McCainy Google bet Cindy's horse would win the prize.
When the horses ran that day, Carol ran the other way.
McCainy Google, with the goo-goo-goo-ga-ly eyes.
McCainyGoogle, with the blu-blue-blu-ga-ly Pfizers
McCainy Google had a wife who owned Budweiser
She sued McCainy for divorce
Now she's living with her horse
McCainy Google, with the blu-blue-blu-ga-ly Pfizers
[re=17826]shortsshortsshorts[/re]: You sure it's not pony express or smoke signal? I mean, the original marathoner DIED conveying his message :/
Se-ee-eex? I had see-ee-eex!
WALNUTS recently acquired an ABC, which is capable of nothing. Just like him.
McCain knows that you hire the interns to do a Google on the interwebs, and that's all he needs to know, goddamnit! Damn kids with their tubes and their nets, in my day we used the Pony Express and were grateful for it!
Does this story mean that we have permission to club Ben Smith and Jonathan Martin to death?
Because that would be RAD!
[re=17854]loudmouthredhead[/re]: Unlike WALNUTS, the original marathoner had a sense of loyalty when in a position of extreme pressure.
[re=17826]shortsshortsshorts[/re]: If it was good enough for the battle of Marathon, then it's good enough for WALNUTS! He should know. He was there.
I call bullshit. Running wasn't invented in McCain's time.
El Bombastico
Are one you moonlighting on McCain's campaign. The response (via Martin):
"We are having trouble over here figuring out these newfangled internets. We have, however, posted a letter via Pony Express to the Obama campaign asking if they might enlist the services of Father Pfleger on our behalf to help us in setting up our webcams."
Why Father Pfleger has anything to do with this, I have no idea. Would have been funnier if the last word had been "webkinz".
Vanity Smurf
I tried that bathroom mirror trick. It does not work. I demand a refund.
He meant a "Gogol", referring to the Russian author's book "Dead Souls". Gawd, he's going to choose Cheney — The Deadest Soul! Or rather, Cheney's going to choose himself again!
[re=17915]Kingbee[/re]: I get it. McCain is Viy.
Someone please raise his eyelids.
[re=17889]ManchuCandidate[/re]: Knuckle-walk?
[re=17889]ManchuCandidate[/re]: There was however, a rather intense "trot" styled in his time.
Dave J.
My mom, this weekend (no joke): "I didn't know I could use the Google for searching."
He alludes to "Myface Profiles" in 3… 2… 1…
Botswana Meat Commission FC
How did Newell get a picture of Ken Layne's AOL commenters?
You see Google is one of those penny stocks Cindy found out about through a secret tips sent to her by electronic-mail-on-the-internet. And good politician knows what to do next, yeah that's right:
Pump it and Dump it.
Hey, that's also a good strategy for first wives.
Actually, if you read all the text and replace Google with Gargoyle, McKey makes a lot of sense
Texan Bulldoggette
Don't make fun. We often say (& can't seem to stop ourselves) that we're going to the "the Walmart". Real hicky–maybe McCain is just sucking up to the country, rural folk. You know — he & his beer heiress wife and their 8 houses & millions of dollars are just like the rest of us schmoes that have to buy 10 liters of mouthwash & sometimes stumble upon a 2 for 1 Chap stick special.

Marriage is about Love.
Divorce is about Money.
Going through a divorce will force you to make the biggest financial decisions of your entire life - at a time when you may feel the least capable of doing so.
When you are in such extremely difficult circumstances, it is normal to question your ability to make even the smallest decisions. Or you may not be accustomed to making financial decisions. Even among the best of us, the emotionalism of divorce may cloud your good judgment. Whatever the case, you need help and you need it now.
The divorce process, and the professional assistance you need, is like a three-legged stool. You need professional legal, financial, and emotional advice and support. If one of the legs is missing, just like on the stool, you will fall and get hurt. Do not expect your divorce attorney to do it all. He or she is trained in the law and is not a financial expert or a therapist.
Your divorce team should include a financial professional, along with your divorce attorney and personal counselor. The best type of financial expert is an experienced Certified Divorce Financial Analyst™ (CDFA™) or Certified Financial Divorce Practitioner (CFDP™) or Certified Financial Divorce Specialist™ (CFDS). I have been recognized as the first Divorce Financial Professional in the Nation to have been awarded all three certifications in this specialty. As your divorce financial expert, I will work closely with you and your divorce attorney during the negotiation of your Marital Dissolution Agreement, or "Settlement"
As your divorce financial expert, I first look at the marital assets belonging to you and your spouse in the traditional way. Consideration is given to an itemized list of real estate owned, household goods, vehicles, debts, investments, retirement accounts and pensions, family businesses, and the like. Additionally, the income and projected living expenses for each of you will be weighed. The intent is to divide the property as equitably as possible and plan for any appropriate child and/or spousal support.
But I don't stop there. I will examine the long term effects that a proposed property/support settlement has upon your future financial well-being. This is necessary because different assets, which may have equal value today, may be projected to behave differently and have vastly different values in the future. For example, a house worth $500,000, with $300,000 equity, will likely appreciate at about 1-3% per year and require maintenance and taxes to be paid in the meantime. On the other hand, a retirement account worth $300,000 may grow at about 6-8% per year and require no expenditures in the meantime. Huge difference, although today they both have the same net value and may be perceived as an equal division of property.
In addition, my analysis will consider factors such as: impact of inflation upon living expenses, different tax brackets of the parties as single individuals, special tax issues specific to divorce, present value of pensions, stock options, deferred income, replacement of insurances, cost basis and performance of individual investments, alimony and child support, possible buyouts and their overall impact, and more.
A professional analysis will illustrate exactly what the impact of a proposed settlement will have upon your Cash Flow for each of the next 10, 15, or 20 years. It will also project your resulting Net Worth for each of those years. These are the things that are really important for you to maintain a dignified lifestyle. The benefit is that you will know in advance what the consequences may be of a settlement that seems equal now, but may not be at all equitable in the long run. Based upon those results, I will then develop alternative settlements for consideration by you and your divorce attorney.
With the support of a divorce financial expert, you will be able to make more informed decisions regarding your divorce settlement and take better control of your financial future.

It is said that whenever a girl steps out of her house, her struggle begins with her very first step. She has to go through tests at every stride, has to fight odd battles and pass through the darkest of tunnels to sketch her own path towards her goal while combating numerous fears and adversities along the way.
Saanchi's is one such story of a vulnerable girl who combats mammoth obstacles on her way to eventually winning the battle of her life.
Coming from a rural background, 27-year-old Indu Singh is a University leader who hails from a very influential and powerful rural political family. He is an extremely dangerous man and believes that power (Satta) is his birthright. He takes everyone for competition and thinks very highly of himself. Indu is very aggressive and brave in his endeavours and doesn't fear anything in this world. Crime runs in Indu's blood and if he sets his heart on anything, he doesn't leave any stone unturned to grab it. He never leaves a single opportunity to trounce his opponents.
She is our female protagonist and is Tarachand's second daughter. 19-year-old Saanchi strongly believes in convincing a person assertively rather than confronting aggressively. She is a clever girl who often handles the most difficult of situations smoothly but at times when she succumbs to defeat, she appears very vulnerable and that vulnerability even multiplies her charm. She handles most situations tactfully and teaches the world a lesson in its own language. In her long ordeal Saanchi's talent, intelligence, sense of humour and understanding aide her in realising her dreams and achieving her goals.

Discover Chocolate and Live La Vida Cocoa!
I have read from several different sources that the flavinols (sources of antioxidant and heart health) create a bitter taste and are therefore usually mostly removed in the chocolate making process. There is a Mars product, Cocoavia, as well as a Barry Callebaut product that claim to retain more flavinols. Are these two really the only "healthy" dark chocolates?

David Green Replaces Barry Sonnenfeld as Director of LORE Starring Dwayne Johnson
by Brendan Bettinger Posted 1 year, 116 days ago
The feature adaptation of Lore, a comic book from husband-and-wife team Ashley Wood and T.P. Louise, was first announced three years ago with Cory Goodman (Priest) and Jeremy Lott on board to write the script. Warner Bros. picked up the screenplay and attached Dwayne Johsnon (pending scheduling) in 2012. Since the producers are said to want a Men in Black-style franchise, they reached out to Men in Black director Barry Sonnenfeld this time last year. Sonnenfeld and the studio reportedly could not agree on a budget, so Sonnenfeld will step down as director, but remain involved as executive producer.
WB has found a replacement in a director who will likely be more agreeable: David Green. More after the jump.

Vintage Don Q Puerto Rican 151 Rum – A Tasting
I knew Don Q Rums mainly as the rum inside my vintage Mai-Kai decanter. It was in ads that touted the Mai-Kai's Derby Daiquiri.
Ms. Swanky got me this sealed vintage bottle for Christmas this year and I was eager to try it. Rums of today just don't compare to those of 40 years ago I am told. The rums they used to mix with then, we would consider only for sipping on the rocks today.
And anyone who has spent much time mixing drinks knows that Bacardi 151 is essentially best served on fire. Lemon Hart 151 is the only thing out there with a good flavor for mixing. Want to test that? Try a "151 Swizzle" using each, side by side. Look at the ratings on the Grogalizer and you see clearly who used what as the grades for the drink are all 1's and 10's!
So, with that backdrop, I wanted to see where this 151 stood.
I started with the Lemon Hart as a baseline. It has an immediate and strong caramel flavor. Oo, and there's the burn! Yep, that's 151 proof! A hazardous material you can't send via plane. But, compared with the Bacardi, it's mighty tasty.
Now to the 40 year old bottle of Don Q. A much milder flavor. Yes, a flavor! And not moist socks. It's light and nice. Sort of like a really smooth and yummy gold rum. Better than Appleton Gold. And then I swallowed. Ouch.
It's in between the strong flavor of the Lemon Hart and the blech flavor of Bacardi. That is, it won't give the powerful punch of Lemon Hart. But it is good. It's nice. I may have to get out the aluminum cups and cinnamon sticks and mix us some "151 Swizzles" to get an even better idea.
Thanks Santa!

Can you tell me how or where to purchase a bottle or two of the DonQ 151 Puerto Rican Rum? I have been searching for a year for this for my 80 year old Father. This is all he asked for Christmas this year and I would love to get it for him for his upcoming birthday. We can't find it anywhere? Any help would be greatly appriciated. Thank you! Jr

"I'm good enough, I'm smart enough, and, doggone it, people like me." Wise words to tell yourself when you're feeling depressed, right? Not for everyone, psychologists are finding.
Saturday Night Live's Stuart Smalley character, a fake self-help guru played by Al Franken in the '90s, satirized the positive psychology movement that's so pervasive in our culture today. Still, for all the mockery, thinking good thoughts seemed like a pretty logical way to help overcome self-doubts.
But two years ago, a widely reported Canadian study came out that questioned the effectiveness of positive self-statements, which had never been tested in an environment true to how many people use them: without the benefit of a therapist and other treatments. In the study, Joanne Wood, a psychologist at the University of Waterloo in Ontario, and her colleagues looked at the effectiveness of positive self-statements (in this case, "I'm a lovable person") on people with high and low self-esteem.
Volunteers with low self-esteem actually felt worse after repeating the statement or after focusing on how it was true compared to people who did not say the mantra or who thought about how it was both true and untrue.
Wood and her co-authors theorized in their paper that repeating sweeping positive self-statements such as "I'm lovable" makes people with low self-esteem think contradictory thoughts ("I'm not as lovable as I could be"). More important, focusing only on how true the statement is was difficult for these people, and it made them feel worse when contradictory thoughts persisted in breaking through.
The study was not a total indictment of positive thinking. Participants with high self-esteem benefited slightly from repeating "I'm lovable," and from thinking about how it was true. The conclusion? "Repeating positive self-statements may benefit certain people, but backfire for the very people who 'need' them the most." Next: Fighting Negative Thoughts? Thinking Positively? How Depressing!
