Manure Spills Causing Toxic Algae In More Iowa Lakes
Thanks CCI (Iowa Citizens for Community Improvement) for sounding the alarm on toxic algae!
First it was Ohio, then Lake Red Rock in Iowa, and now it's Big Creek Lake – toxic blue-green algae has struck again.
A reader sent us this photo that he took at Big Creek Lake last week with this comment: "Can see from the photo that water quality is one of Branstad and the DNRs' top priorities…"
The toxic algae's unpleasant odors and potentially dangerous health effects cannot be ignored.
This toxic algae growth is caused by runoff from corporate ag, including factory farms.
When we look at the number of manure spills, just in the past year, the growth of this harmful algae is not surprising.
55 manure spills since Sept. 2013 when the DNR signed the Clean Water Act Work Plan – that's over 1 manure spill per week.
The DNR must issue permits to these manure polluters – here is one action you take right now:
Share this photo on FB to keep the #cleanwaterfight in the public eye!
October is going to be a busy month for the #cleanwaterfight – stay tuned!

Iowa Water Quality Public Hearings This Week
Here's a note from CCI:
The rule passed by the Iowa Department of Natural Resources (DNR) two weeks ago brings Iowa closer into compliance with the Clean Water Act for the first time ever. But, it can be stronger, and the DNR must enforce it. That's where your voice comes in!
The DNR is gathering Iowans' thoughts on improving the state's water quality goals as part of its three-year review of water quality standards and goals.
Can you attend a water quality hearing and remind the DNR what must be done for a Clean Water Iowa?
These public meetings are being held in the following places:
Today! Sept. 3, 4 to 6 p.m.
Spencer Public Library (Round Room), 21 East Third St.
Thursday, Sept. 4, 10 a.m. to 12 p.m.
Washington Public Library (Nicholas Stoufer Room), 115 West Washington
West Des Moines
Monday, Sept. 8, 10 to 12 p.m.
West Des Moines Public Library (Community Room), 4000 Mills Civic Parkway
Tuesday, Sept. 9, 10 a.m. to 12 p.m.
Falcon Civic Center, 1305 Fifth Ave. NE
Clear Lake
Tuesday, Sept. 9, 4 to 6 p.m.
Clear Lake Chamber of Commerce Lakeview Room, 10 North Lakeview Drive
Here is what we need to make sure the DNR doesn't forget:
You must ramp up the inspections to find and fix problems at factory farms.
You must issue clean water act permits to all factory farms.
There must be tough fines and penalties for polluters.
Of course, tell the DNR why clean water is important to you personally!
They DUMP it, you DRINK it, we won't stop 'til they clean it up,

This Week On The Fallon Forum: ISU Police Chase, Water, Climate Change, SNAP
The police chase and shooting death on the Iowa State University campus last week has been the subject of much conversation, not just in Iowa but across the country. Was the use of deadly force by the police officer justified? What was going on in the driver's mind as he was tearing around campus? At what point does one's vehicle become a deadly weapon?
Monday, attorney Joseph Glazebrook and Dr. Charles Goldman join me to analyze the tragic event at ISU last week. We also discuss the Greece v. Galloway case before the U.S. Supreme Court, addressing prayer at city council meetings.
Tuesday, local farmer Mark Peterson joins us to discuss water quality, and Suman Hoque with HoQ Restaurant talks about the growth in the local foods movement. We may also weigh-in on the debate over SNAP, a.k.a., food stamps.
Wednesday, we talk with Jon Neiderbach, who is throwing his hat into the race for State Auditor on the Democratic ticket. We also discuss climate change in light of the tragic typhoon which struck the Philippines last week.
Thursday, we talk with Joe Henry, candidate for Des Moines City Council in the upcoming special election. We also talk with Joe about the efforts of LULAC (League of United Latin American Citizens) and other organizations to confront voter suppression, both here in Iowa and most egregiously in Texas.
Join us live, Monday-Thursday, from 6:00-6:30 pm on the Fallon Forum website. Call-in at (855) 244-0077 and add your voice to the dialogue. Video and audio-only podcasts available after the program. The Fallon Forum also can be heard on KHOI 89.1 (Ames) Wednesdays at 5:00 pm and KPVL 89.1 (Postville) Wednesdays at 7:00 pm. Thanks!
This Week On The Fallon Forum: Elections, Climate Change, Water Quality, Gun Safety
Tuesday is a big day in Iowa. It's Election Day, and in 950 cities across the state, voters will elect city council members and, in some cases, mayors. If recent trends are any indication, turnout will be embarrassingly low. Voting tomorrow is a good idea for three reasons:
1. Voting makes a difference! Lest we forget, George Bush beat Al Gore by only 200 votes in the 2000 General Election. (Okay, the other school of thought says Bush didn't actually win but was appointed by the US Supreme Court. But we won't go there today.) And as a state lawmaker I sat between Becky Reynolds, who won her first election by 142 votes, and Bill Witt, who won his first election by only 16 votes. Iowa is a better place because of their service.
2. Local officials are (or should be) accessible. Arguably, local government has a more profound impact on our day-to-day lives than any other level of government. You can call Des Moines City Councilman Skip Moore and say, "Hey Skip, what's this bug eating my redbud tree?" There's a good chance Skip'll be out there to look at your tree the next day. Try getting that kind of response from your state or federal elected officials.
3. Democracy depends on it! Sure, there are plenty of other things democracy depends on. Freedom of speech. The right to assemble. Public education. Strong local economies. Baseball. But who we elect to represent us, the folks in charge of enacting laws and ordinances, is critical. We want good people doing that, do we not? Letting a bunch of zombies run city government is not going to be good for you or your redbud tree. Fortunately, in Des Moines at least, we are not at risk of zombies winning any of the three seats on the ballot. All of the candidates are respectable, non-flesh eating types. And I thank those who came on my program and share their views: Skip Moore, Cal Woods, Chris Diebel, Bill Gray and Jean Minahan.
Monday, Jonathan Neiderbach and I preview this week's Des Moines City Council election. We also look at the $81 million proposal for courthouse improvements and expansion in Polk County. We take a look at some of the city council races in metro suburbs as well.
Tuesday, we have an extended program (5:30-6:30) and discuss last week's developments on the climate-change front. We talk with Kathleen McQuillen of American Friends Service Committee about drones. Josh Mandelbaum of the Environmental Law and Policy Center joins us to discuss the ongoing conflict over Iowa's water quality. And Cheryl Thomas with Iowans for Gun Safety weighs in on the latest tragic school shooting in Nevada.
Wednesday, Graham Gillette joins Jonathan Neiderbach and me for a review of the outcome of Tuesday's election. We also discuss the shape of next year's statewide and federal elections. And we remind folks of the upcoming Immigrant Entrepreneurs Summit on November 9th at Drake University.
Thursday, State Rep. Dan Kelley is back in the studio with us. And we talk with Michael Garvin with the Caribbean Renewable Energy Consortium.
Join us live, Monday-Thursday, from 6:00-6:30 pm on the Fallon Forum website. Call-in at (855) 244-0077 and add your voice to the dialogue. Video and audio-only podcasts available after the program. The Fallon Forum also can be heard on KHOI 89.1 (Ames) Wednesdays at 5:00 pm and KPVL 89.1 (Postville) Wednesdays at 7:00 pm. Thanks!
Meanwhile Back In Iowa… Manure-Laden Water!
DNR Investigates Fish Kill in Lyon County
DOON – On Labor Day, the Iowa DNR investigated a fish kill on the Little Rock River east of Doon in Lyon County.
A concerned citizen reported the fish kill to DNR Monday morning. When environmental specialists arrived at the river, they found high levels of ammonia, odor and color indicating manure-laden water killed the fish.
They traced the runoff to two open feedlots north and east of Doon belonging to Jim Koedam and Marvin VanMaanen. Both producers raise beef cattle.
The area received about two inches of rain Saturday night. The preliminary investigation indicates manure-laden runoff ran overland and then into draws that flow to the river.
DNR staff found dead fish along a two-mile section of stream starting about 1.5 miles north of the Highway 75 bridge. The dead fish included many smallmouth bass and channel catfish, along with carp, suckers, largemouth bass, gar, chubs and minnows.
DNR fisheries specialists are on site Tuesday conducting a fish count. The DNR will continue to monitor the clean up and consider appropriate enforcement action.
Prompt reporting of the fish kill allowed the DNR to trace the source of pollution and stop it quickly. It's important to report fish kills and spills to the state's 24-hour spill line at 515-281-8694 as quickly as possible.
And how about this lovely incident of "improper manure release" in Steve King's District last Thursday:
INWOOD, Iowa | An improper release of thousands of gallons of manure Thursday into an unnamed tributary of the Rock River has led to high levels of ammonia in the water.
An Iowa Department of Natural Resources news release said the manure came from a solids settling basin at a 4,000-head open cattle lot owned by John Fluit Jr.
Fluit improperly unloaded 12 loads of manure, ranging from 2,500 to 4,000 gallons, onto a cornfield. From the cornfield the manure ran into a creek, where it was carried about a mile down to a neighbor's pond. The manure then flowed out the pond's outlet and back into the creek, the release said.

Help Save Iowa's Public Lands From The "Efficiency" Bill
Action Alert From the Iowa Sierra Club:
The Iowa House of Representatives will soon consider House File 2449, referred to as the "efficiency" bill, that directs the Department of Natural Resources (DNR) to inventory all of its public lands (Division V, Section 16) and prohibits the DNR from purchasing any additional agricultural land (Division V, Section 17).
Tell your Iowa House Representative that you oppose these sections of the bill.
Risks Iowa's Water Quality. Iowa law defines agricultural land as virtually all land in Iowa. The DNR would be prohibited from purchasing wetlands, prairies, parks and river buffers to protect water quality.
Sacrifices the Natural Legacy. This land does not belong to the government. It belongs to Iowans. Don't let anyone hijack our state's future.
Is Fiscally Irresponsible. Public land in Iowa generates nearly $4 billion annually. HF2449 sacrifices the land we all share, land that is important to our economy.
Rep. Chris Hall (D-Woodbury) and Rep. Mary Gaskill (D-Wapello) have introduced H-8403 that strips all references to public lands from HF2449.
Contact your Representative NOW! Say you support H-8403 and you want the Iowa Legislature to invest in more public land.

More reviews by x0x0rebeccax0x0
this is extremely mattifying and a great match for my porcelain complexion. doesnt cake at all for me. super cheap.
I loved this!!! It's absolutely perfect for oily skin if you use it properly.
Simple, good, cheap powder. What else can I say? If you're looking for that, this product is it. It just works.
If you're looking for an "elegant brand" try something else like Chanel or Guerlain.
this stuff is good. it has a nice smooth finish and of course the compact is easy to carry around. The Noxzema smell doesnt bother me as its nice and clean. This is one good drugstore pressed powder
I am an unabashed product snob, but this is the only pressed powder that I have purchased again and again. I'm a MAC NC30/Stila C/BB Warm Ivory, and I use Translucent Light on my T-zone. It looks very natural and has outstanding staying power—a little too good, actually. When I wash my face at night, I often find traces of it on my white towels. The cobalt plastic compact is cute, too.
1 out of 1 people found this review helpful. Did you? Yes No
I bought MAC blot because I thought it might be better than the CG smoothers, but it wasn't. This is a great powder for normal skin. It may cake up on oily skin, or over creamy foundation. I usually brush it or press it on if I am wearing other makeup under it. The smell is a bit on the strong side, but that sort of thing doesn't really bother me. I think the addition of mineral oil in this plus the fact that it is very finely milled makes this a nicer powder than MAC blot which can look dry and dusty. BTW, it is physically impossible for mineral oil to block pores, so don't let that scare you off buying this. It just makes the powder a little smoother.
In a perfect world, this would be packaged with a separate tray for the puff so the powder doesn't get all gunky/contaminated, but that's really being picky.
1 out of 1 people found this review helpful. Did you? Yes No
Yep, the cakeage factor will stop me from buying this again! I've tried maybe half a dozen powders in the past few months, and this one was the only one I actually threw into the garbage before I was even 1/4 finished it. I have normal skin, but this powder actually made it look worse than it is. The compact is cute, but this is an all-around BAD powder.
my mom has used this for years. (she's not really a makeup fan) it's working pretty well, but i have to tell that Covergirl tests on animals!!! they kill animals after they test products on them. bunnies, mice.. this makes me not buy Cover Girl products.
I usually buy the CG clean powder, but the Smoothers powder was buy one get one free so I got this instead. I am really impressed. MTVsux is right about the moisturizing powder looking better than the drying powder. I have combo skin too, with occasional dry patches from acne treatments, and the drying powders look terrible on dry skin-- all scaly and patchy. The Smoothers powder looks much more natural. The only thing I don't like is the scent-- it smells like some kind of bubble bath and is a major turnoff. If it were unscented, I'd love it. Nice, cheap, useful stuff. I just keep this in my backpack for touchups during the day.
I thought that this was a very good powder. I have very light skin, and it covered my red cheeks well, making my face a more uniform color. I would definitely purchase this powder again!

Nobody ever said Britney Spears had good taste in men. Enter Mel Gibson.
Ewww, no! There was nothing romantic going on when Brit and Mel had dinner at a Russian restaurant Saturday night -- they were actually dining in a group -- in what looked like a business meeting.
"It was exciting to have both of them here together," a restaurant spy told People.com. "We heard they hit it off and that Britney seemed excited." They also said that Brit "looked happy" when she left.
The pop star and Mel had once been neighbors in Malibu, but I doubt they were discussing how to clean up the 'hood. Perhaps it was dinner for those struggling to get back in the good graces of Hollywood? Um, no, Lindsay Lohan wasn't sitting at the head of the table...

RedSeal Extends Security Posture Management To Fortinet FortiGate Security Appliances
SAN MATEO, Calif., May 3, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- RedSeal Systems, Inc., the market's leading provider of security posture management solutions, today announced that it has added support for Fortinet Inc.'s flagship FortiGate® consolidated security appliance family to its RedSeal Network Advisor and Vulnerability Advisor software.
The added integration with the Fortinet products allows customers using FortiGate platforms to analyze their devices using RedSeal and gain a holistic understanding of access control, risk and compliance across the entire enterprise.
"RedSeal offers powerful security intelligence for enterprise network infrastructure," said Patrick Bedwell, vice president of product marketing at Fortinet. "The integration between FortiGate and RedSeal helps our joint customers to quickly identify and remediate potential weaknesses and reduce risks through a complementary platform that provides a more comprehensive understanding of their network behavior."
RedSeal's software analyzes the complex interaction of firewalls, routers, load balancers and hosts across the entire enterprise network, assessing the security capabilities of the infrastructure as a whole rather than simply the behavior of individual devices.RedSeal Network Advisor ensures that an organization's desired security policies are actually enforced by their network infrastructure, isolating specific rules and devices that create security holes and verifying continuously that network changes comply with approved policies. RedSeal Vulnerability Advisor analyzes the effect that network security has on host vulnerabilities, identifying those problems that are actually exposed to threats and could enable hackers to break through perimeter defenses to access sensitive assets using leapfrog attacks. This capability allows operations teams to focus their efforts on issues that create the greatest risk to their organization based on confirmed parameters of access, vulnerability and organizational impact – instead of utilizing their resources patching servers already shielded by multiple layers of network security.

Topic Outline
Chronic pancreatitis is a progressive inflammatory disease of the pancreas. It is characterized by structural changes that result in irreversible exocrine and/or endocrine pancreatic insufficiency [1-3]. The structural changes include diffuse or focal destruction, sclerosis, acinar cell loss, islet cell loss, inflammatory cell infiltrate, and pancreatic duct abnormalities. Intraductal obstruction may be caused by protein-plugs and/or calculi.
Because the pancreas has a large reserve capacity, symptoms of pancreatic failure do not develop until there is loss of over 90 percent of pancreatic exocrine function [4]. Most patients with chronic pancreatitis initially experience recurrent abdominal pain, which may progress to persistent pain. Less commonly, patients are asymptomatic or have minimal symptoms until developing signs of advanced disease, such as diabetes mellitus or fat and protein malabsorption. With advances in diagnostic methods, the diagnosis of chronic pancreatitis is becoming more common in children. (See "Clinical manifestations and diagnosis of chronic pancreatitis in children".)
A variety of pathologic processes can cause chronic pancreatitis in children. However, no specific etiology can be identified for many cases, termed "idiopathic chronic pancreatitis." Hereditary pancreatitis is a form of chronic pancreatitis that often presents during childhood and adolescence; it will be discussed briefly here and in detail in a separate topic review. (See "Hereditary pancreatitis".)

A weird panic in slow timeFebruary 15, 2010 at 3:17 pm | Posted in Uncategorized | 5 Comments
I arrived in San Marcos yesterday. I keep feeling a weird panic here. Of forgetting something. Of everything moving in slow time. People walk slower than me. (I walk really slow.) The internet is slow. People talk about spirits and healing all casual, like it´s the weather and the news. I woke up to a rooster crowing at 5am and I thought it was someone´s alarm clock set to ¨Rooster¨. You can´t print anything. There´s no photocopier. No ATM. My watch is wrong but I don´t know how to set it. I´m using a watch because my cell phone gets no reception. You can´t get things. Like, I brought a salad spinner from the U.S. for the writing workshop´s cook. Special delivery! To get anywhere you need a boat across the lake and a bus through the mountains. We arrived yesterday (just yesterday?) in a storm, thunder, lightning, a downpour. Water in the bottom of the lancha sloshed over my flip flops. One woman on our trip was trying to get into the boat and fell right into the water. She gave a little half scream and two men pulled her out. This internet cafe is tracking my words, it´s been 12 minutes, I owe 5 Q, a little less than a buck. I need coffee but there´s no coffee shop open right now. So. Slow.
Melting, a littleFebruary 13, 2010 at 5:22 pm | Posted in Uncategorized | 3 Comments
I arrived in Antigua this afternoon and immediately relaxed. Partially it´s the weather. Partially it´s finally being on the road, after months and months of making arrangements to be gone. Partially it´s that I´m wearing a thin black sundress and flip flops, looking at dusty motorcycles, cobblestones, chickens roasting on a spit in a window. Whew.
Sister cityFebruary 4, 2010 at 10:11 pm | Posted in Uncategorized | 6 Comments
My sister Lisa came to Chicago just the other day. For two weeks — before I leave for other pastures — we're roommates. And this makes me happy. We're not usually in the same city, just hauling the same genetic baggage around our respective haunts. Now we can both say: Hey. That looks just like mine. We both mumble when we talk. Can't follow compass directions. Love goat cheese and pasta and beer. Stay up late, watching Curb Your Enthusiasm and L'Auberge Espagnole and sipping through a $3 bottle of wine while our apartment's ancient gas heater clangs and thrums.

Inside a Circa-1790s New York Farmhouse
With its Revolutionary War pedigree, Donna and Paul Frank's New York farmhouse is straight from a history book. So they set out to write their own chapter.

Rounding out the heart of their home? The hutch Paul crafted for his wife's birthday and a farm table that once served as his desk. The master bedroom dresser, a relic from Donna's childhood, underscores the point: Personal ties trump period accuracy.

Bayern Munich stretched their lead at the top of the Bundesliga table to 14 points with a last-ditch 2-1 away win in Mainz.
Mainz had the temerity to take the lead but a decimated, yet the defiant Bayern side fought back to seal an eight straight league success.

Veloute is actually made with a blond roux. The four and butter are cooked slightly longer than a white roux and it will have a light tan color and smell like popcorn.
You then mix in your light stock and add a sachet of one bay leaf, a little fresh thyme, a few parsley stems, a couple peppercorns, and a clove of garlic, and simmer until the sauce thickens. It is not a white sauce, it ends up being a light tan. A classic white sauce would be Bechamel, which is made with a white roux and milk.

National Oceanic and Atmospheric AdministrationClimate of 1999 - September
Global Regional Analyses
National Climatic Data Center, 15 October 1999
Several distinct anomalies were observed in the global circulation this month. Ridges of high pressure aloft over portions of the St. Lawrence River Valley in eastern Canada, much of central Europe, and near Korea and Japan kept these areas warmer than (1992-1999) average. Troughs of low pressure were over the eastern Atlantic, central Russia, and northeastern Siberia. These areas were generally cooler than average. Persistent cloudiness and precipitation across portions of the central plains of the U.S. and most of central and southern Africa were responsible for the cool wet conditions. In the southern hemisphere, a strong ridge of high pressure aloft over southern Australia and New Zealand was responsible for warmer than average conditions in those areas. The general September 1999 mean upper air circulation pattern anomalies are available for the Northern Hemisphere and Southern Hemisphere. An animation depicting the Northern Hemisphere flow is also available.
Europe / Asia Blended Temperatures
Wetness Anomalies in Europe
Precipitation Time Series from In-Situ Stations - Spain and Portugal
Wetness Anomalies in Asia
Negative wetness anomalies were observed again this month over portions of eastern Pakistan and western India. This region has been generally dry since the beginning of July; much of this region is dependant upon the tropical monsoon for their summer rainfall. Negative wetness anomalies were also observed over southeast Asia and across northeastern China in Manchuria. The Manchuria region in China has been generally dry since early August.
Africa/ Middle East Temperature
Wetness Anomalies across Africa / Middle East
Northern and north central Africa, a region that usually receives very little summer rainfall (less than 25 millimeters or an inch or so), showed even less than the usual surface wetness during the month of September.

Firing a 155 total on the Cookeville Country Club course, coach Bob Williams' "Fillies" outdistanced the nearest competition by just two strokes, as Warren County came in at 157, with Coffee County third at 164.
Minus their No. 1 player, who was out with an injury, the Mustangs finished fourth in the boys' side of the event with a 311, putting them behind Coffee County (295), Cookeville (301) and Warren County (304).
"I'm proud of the girls. This was a good early test to see how we match up against several other teams from our region," declared coach Williams. "We had great, consistent scoring from the girls that went. It was a good team effort."
"Even though we (the Mustangs) were missing Garrett Cantrell (due to a wrist injury he suffered in a car accident), we gave a good effort, but only had two scores in the 70s," Williams said of the boys results. "In a tournament like this, that's not going to get you a win."
Walker Valley will be back on the links Wednesday afternoon as county-rivals Bradley Central and Cleveland High join them on the Chatata Valley course.
The Lady Mustangs posted four of the top nine scores on the girls' scoreboard with senior Katie Bishop tying for the top score of the event with a 5-over-par 75, while freshman Kelsey Cassada was fifth overall with an 80 to round out the team total.
The third member of the team trio, sophomore Katie Medley, posted a 84, the ninth-best total of the 18-hole event, while senior Kassey Gregg, playing as an individual, tied for sixth with an 81.
DeKalb County's Mallory Sullivan matched Bishop's 75 and then claimed the low-medalist honor on the first hole of a playoff.
Hannah Powell of Warren County took third in the individual play with a 76, while Coffee County's Hollee Sadler was fourth with a 79.
Polk County finished tied with White County for fifth place in the team race with a 181 tally, while McMinn County placed seventh with a 187.
Junior Lauren Passmore led the Lady Wildcats with an 87, while sophomore Heather Ellis shot a 97.
The Walker Valley boys got a 2-over-par 72 from senior Jordan Leggett, which tied for the fourth-lowest score, and a 4-over 74 from sophomore Dyan Lillard tied for seventh individually, to spearhead the Mustang charge.
Sophomores Corey Rollins and Austin Norman rounded out the Navy-and-Gold scoring with an 82 and 83, respectively.
"Leggett and Lillard had really good rounds, while Rollins and Norman stepped up and played well," praised coach Williams.
McMinn County finished fifth in the boys' event with a 318, behind a 3-over 73 from Cody Housley.
Polk County carded a 381 for a ninth-place finish. Returning juniors Michael Rongey and Ryan Droke shot 81 and 91 respectively, while newcomers junior Tyler Brown (98), senior Will Richmond (111) and freshman Hayden Darnell (111) rounded out the effort.

Tanning is the skin's response to ultraviolet (UV) light--a protective reaction to prevent further injury to the skin from the sun. However, tanning does not prevent skin cancer.
Aside from exposure to UV light (from the sun or manmade sources, such as tanning lamps), the following are possible risk factors for skin cancer:
Heredity. People with a family history of skin cancer are generally at a higher risk of developing the disease. People with fair skin and a northern European heritage appear to be most susceptible.
Multiple nevi (moles) or atypical moles
Exposure to coal and arsenic compounds
Elevation. Ultraviolet light is stronger as elevation increases (because the thinner atmosphere at higher altitudes cannot filter UV as effectively as it does at sea level).
Latitude. The rays of the sun are strongest near the equator.
Repeated exposure to X-rays
Scars from disease and burns
Immune suppression, such as in people who have had organ transplants
Male gender
Older age
Prior history of skin cancer
Certain rare inherited conditions, such as basal cell nevus syndrome (Gorlin syndrome) or xeroderma pigmentosum (XP)
Smoking (increases the risk for squamous cell cancer, especially on the lips)

40-year-old actress won't predict what she'll decide to do...
Photo: Jennifer Aniston, 40, this month in Los Angeles. (Photo by Frederick M. Brown/Getty Images)
Plastic surgery would be a last resort, actress Jennifer Aniston says. But she won't rule it out.
In a recent interview, she said:
I will never, ever say 'never' about anything. And I don't think there's anything wrong with making yourself feel better about how you look - although we've all seen how you can go too far with it.
But for me, until that day has to happen, I'll try every other way to make myself feel good first.
The 40-year-old actress said she tries to ignore tabloid stories about her life, loves and alleged plastic surgeries but doesn't always succeed. She said:
I normally ignore stories about me because they tend to take on a life of their own that has no connection with me, and I find that, no matter what I say or do, I can't find a way to correct them. But it does get frustrating sometimes, because I happen to love my job, which is making movies. ... I care about making films that people enjoy.
I think it distracts from when some idiot somewhere, who's annoyed about something for some reason, has created a ridiculous story that I had saline implants over a weekend, or something.
Aniston has previously said that she tried Botox and didn't like it.
The wrinkle-fighting injection made by Irvine-based Allergan made her feel like she had a weight on her head, she said, so she stopped using it.
"I make my living from my expressions, so it's not a great thing to do," she said.

If you use consumer testimonials in your ads or have clients who do, check out the FTC's settlement with Jason Pharmaceuticals, a subsidiary of the diet company, Medifast, Inc. But to really explore what the case is about, we'll need to take a trip back to 1992. (Sorry -- we should have asked our UK consumer protection counterparts to let us borrow the TARDIS for this.)

|Whiteside County Greenways & Trails Plan
|Friday, 10 October 2008 07:33
Whiteside County Economic Development Administrator, Betty Steinert is happy to announce that the updated Whiteside County Greenways and Trails Plan and Map has been completed. The process identifies the natural and man-made resources to link parks, nature preserves and cultural and historic sites with each other in the county. "Showcasing the area's natural resources is an investment into both the economy and the well-being of its residents," stated Ms. Steinert.
The original plan was completed in 1999 with funding from the Illinois Department of Natural Resources (IDNR) and in-kind matches within the county and was the first plan in the State of Illinois. Whiteside County, communities and park districts, along with many other organizations throughout Whiteside County created the original plan and worked together on the updated Greenways and Trails Plan. This was done by developing a priority schedule to implement portions of the plan including marking bike routes and installing bicycle safe storm sewer grates. When applying for grants for parks and bike/walk paths, this plan will be imperative to the park districts or communities being approved for the funding. IDNR is more likely to approve grant funds for those who are a part of a county-wide Greenways and Trails Plan. This plan is a blue print, or wish in some cases, in others the trails and parks are already in place and may need updating or expansion.
Since it had been more than eight years since the first plan was put in place it was felt that the county plan needed to be updated and kept as a working document. Ms Steinert approached the Whiteside County Comprehensive Economic Development Strategy Committee about requesting funding from IDNR for the update. "Last year we were approved for the funding and we got right to work," stated Ms. Steinert. IDNR was very happy that we as a county group were willing to put the work into keeping the plan updated. Many other county plans are just now being completed for the first time.
With a lot of work, which is counted as in-kind match toward the funding, we are very proud to say the updated plan has been approved by IDNR and may be viewed at www.whiteside.org, the Whiteside County web-page, under Economic Development Documents. Ms. Steinert said, "This new format is so much more friendly for all to view than the first book we had with all of the communities having their own maps. The updated plan is all on two pages and can be easily downloaded and printed by anyone."

Cardinal Timothy Dolan observed Holy Saturday with a special blessing in the East Village.
The cardinal visited the 140-year-old Saint Stanislaus Church to take part in a Holy Saturday tradition.
The annual blessing of food for Easter Sunday breakfast is a reminder of the importance of the holiday to Christians, whose belief that Christ rose from the dead after being crucified forms the basis of the Christian faith.
"On this Holy Saturday, we ask that you give us faith to relive your presence among us during our Easter meals; on the Easter day of your victory that we might rejoice in your life and resurrection," Dolan told those assembled.
Dolan was scheduled to celebrate the Easter Vigil Mass at St Patrick's Cathedral on Saturday night.
Holy Week ends Sunday the Easter Sunday celebration, which is the holiest day on the Christian calendar.

Laurentian™ font family
Designed by Rod McDonald in 2003
In 2001, Maclean's invited Rod McDonald to become part of the design team to renovate" the 96-year-old publication. The magazine wanted to offer its readers a typographic voice that was professional, clean, and easy to read. Above all, the typeface had to be able to speak about the hundreds of unrelated subjects addressed in each issue while remaining believable and uncontrived.
A tall order, perhaps? Now add in that this would be the first text typeface ever commissioned by a Canadian magazine. McDonald, who some have called Canada's unofficial "typographer laureate," took on the challenge.
McDonald used two historic models as the basis for Laurentian's design: the work of French type designer Claude Garamond, and that of the English printer and type founder, William Caslon. From Garamond Laurentian acquired its humanist axis, crisp serifs and terminals that mimic pen strokes. Caslon's letters are less humanistic, with a more marked contrast in stroke weight and serifs that appear constructed rather than drawn. These traits also made their mark on Laurentian.
Using these two designs as a foundation, McDonald drew Laurentian with the narrow text columns and small type sizes of magazine composition in mind. He gave his letters strong vertical strokes and sturdy serifs, a robust x-height and a slightly compressed character width
A tall order, per McDonald's genius is evident in the face's legibility, quiet liveliness and in the openness of the letters. The result is a typeface that not only met Maclean's demanding design brief, but also provides exceptional service in a wide variety of other applications.
Laurentian is available in three weights of Regular, Semi Bold and Bold, with complementary italics for the Regular and Semi Bold, and a suite of titling caps."

The gang on "The Capones" includes (from left) "Uncle Lou" Fratto, Madeline Santarelli, Bart Tumbarello, Staci Richter, Dominic Capone, Dawn Capone, Carmine "Meatball" Perrelli and Jeff "Sausage" Vercillo. | Chris Frawley Photography ©REELZCHANNEL

Updated: April 14, 2014 4:38PM
Reelz Channel's newest reality show, "The Capones," opens with Romeoville resident Lou Fratto boasting about his family's ties to notorious mobsters.
Fratto, whose toupee, mustache and sunglasses make him look like he's in the World's Worst Witness Protection Program, introduces viewers to the star of the show: his nephew, Dominic Capone.
"Being a Capone, it ain't what it used to be," Fratto laments to the audience. "If Big Al could see how he runs things, he'd crap in his coffin."
Big Al would have the same reaction if he could see "The Capones."
This "workplace docuseries" feels about as real as Uncle Lou's hair. If it were as funny, I might be able to overlook some of its felonious shortcomings. The show's depiction of a "drama-filled, lasagna-loving dysfunctional family" is a contrived hot mess of stereotypes, staged scenarios and bad acting.
P.S. The cast isn't supposed to be acting.
I realize there's less and less "reality" in reality TV. From "House Hunters" to "Real Housewives," the genre has developed a well-deserved reputation for playing fast and loose with the facts. But "The Capones" exudes a whole new breed of bogusness, one that either thinks I'm dumb enough to believe a woman will blow off steam by shooting a handgun from the deck of her fancy suburban home or, worse yet, thinks I'm dumb enough to find that entertaining. When it comes to veracity, "The Capones" makes "Mob Wives Chicago" look like a Ken Burns documentary.
The 10-episode series, which premieres Tuesday, revolves around Dominic, "The Boss," who claims that his great-great grandfather was Scarface's uncle, Michael Capone. Some folks, including Al's grandniece, Deirdre Capone, dispute that. I'm willing to give Cicero-born Dominic, 38, the benefit of the doubt. Let's just say his blood relationship with Al is distant at best, dubious at worst.
One thing's for sure: Dominic wouldn't have a show without the Capone name, a moniker that stems from his mother's side. Cook County records show he added the infamous surname in 1998 to become Dominic Capone Pantone III.
"People are curious about the family. They're curious about gangsters and the world and all of that," executive producer Jonathan Koch told TV critics last summer in Beverly Hills, Calif.
Koch got involved with "The Capones" through a couple of California-based producers with Chicago area roots, Curtis Leopardo of Barrington and his wife, Cara, from Elmwood Park.
In the premiere, we're told Dominic has "gone legit," selling pizza and pasta with his mother, Dawn Capone, at the family's eponymous restaurant in Lombard. We see him living in a sprawling suburban mansion with his longtime girlfriend, Berwyn native Staci Richter, 30. Her full-time job seems to be fighting with Dominic's overbearing mom.
Not-so-subtle hints are meant to convince us that Dominic is connected and has a lot in common with the late Public Enemy No. 1. In one scene, he uses a tommy gun to turn a wooden board into a sieve while chomping on a cigar.
Dominic's "crew" on "The Capones" includes Bart Tumbarello, described on the show as "a two-bit Romeo from the streets of Cicero," and a couple of bumbling wise guys whose nicknames — Sausage and Meatball — and personas might as well be straight out of the Italian-American canon of stereotypes.
Rounding out Dominic's posse is his did-they-or-didn't-they gal pal Madeline Santarelli. In the premiere, Dominic picks her up from Cook County Jail, where we're told she just got sprung after spending a few months behind bars. While the scene reeks of inauthenticity — Dominic thanks the jail guard by name before telling her "I owe you one" — Santarelli's real-life rap sheet includes an arrest for retail theft and aggravated battery early last year. She pleaded guilty.
"There's nothing fake about this show whatsoever," the Elmwood Park woman said in an interview over the summer. "It's definitely the real deal."
Under questioning from palpably skeptical TV critics at the press tour, cast member Tumbarello put it this way: "Ninety-five percent of it is real and 5 percent is true."
I think he was kidding. But the real joke is the show itself.
