The only thing we can really do to boost activity is increase Reffing/Rangering speed, which will cause people to need to come online more often and battles will be completed faster, which will give people more money to buy more Pokemon so they can feel confident enough to sign up for a Tour. :P

Definitions for Ceramicsəˈræm ɪk
This page provides all possible meanings and translations of the word Ceramic
Random House Webster's College Dictionary
ce•ram•icsəˈræm ɪk(adj.)
of or pertaining to products made from clay and similar materials, as pottery and brick, or to their manufacture.
Category: Ceramics
(n.)ceramic material.
Category: Ceramics
Origin of ceramic:
1840–50; < Gk keramikós=kéram(os) potters' clay +-ikos -ic
Princeton's WordNet
an artifact made of hard brittle material produced from nonmetallic minerals by firing at high temperatures
of or relating to or made from a ceramic
"a ceramic dish"
A hard brittle material that is produced through burning of nonmetallic minerals at high temperatures
Joan made the dish of ceramic.
An object made of this material
Joe had dozens of ceramics in his apartment.
made of material produced by the high temperature firing of inorganic, nonmetallic rocks and minerals.
A ceramic vase stood on the table.
Origin: From κεραμικός, from κέραμος
Webster Dictionary
of or pertaining to pottery; relating to the art of making earthenware; as, ceramic products; ceramic ornaments for ceilings
A ceramic is an inorganic, nonmetallic solid prepared by the action of heat and subsequent cooling. Ceramic materials may have a crystalline or partly crystalline structure, or may be amorphous. Because most common ceramics are crystalline, the definition of ceramic is often restricted to inorganic crystalline materials, as opposed to the noncrystalline glasses, a distinction followed here. The earliest ceramics made by humans were pottery objects, including 27,000 year old figurines, made from clay, either by itself or mixed with other materials, hardened in fire. Later ceramics were glazed and fired to create a colored, smooth surface. Ceramics now include domestic, industrial and building products and a wide range of ceramic art. In the 20th century, new ceramic materials were developed for use in advanced ceramic engineering; for example, in semiconductors. The word "ceramic" comes from the Greek word κεραμικός, "of pottery" or "for pottery", from κέραμος, "potter's clay, tile, pottery". The earliest mention of the root "ceram-" is the Mycenaean Greek ke-ra-me-we, "workers of ceramics", written in Linear B syllabic script. "Ceramic" may be used as an adjective describing a material, product or process; or as a singular noun, or, more commonly, as a plural noun, "ceramics".

super tangle!ReplyDelete
♥ Whispering ORBalicious ♥ReplyDelete
Wow - I think you got the shading just rightReplyDelete
beautiful shading! love your orbs! nice work!ReplyDelete
Great stuff! The aura around the centre section sets it off beautifully!ReplyDelete
Love your jetties, they are beautiful. Love this tangle. Your shading is beautiful.ReplyDelete
I think you mastered the shading, love your variations of jetties. The whole tile is so visually connected and flows one tangle into another.ReplyDelete
This is cool. I love the "barrier" between the two different Jetties.ReplyDelete
lovely lovely!ReplyDelete
Nice! I thought of B'jetties after I had finished some tiles. Maybe I'll have to do another!ReplyDelete
Disconcertingly my first thought was: Stairway to Heaven (and I heard the music from Led Zeppelin) I´m now listening to from that linked youtube clip ;-) ).
Beautiful shading!!!
Thank you very much for this experience.

The museum exhibit "Slavery In New York" opened last month, and already a record number of visitors have learned about a once hidden fact about our city. NY1's Dean Meminger takes a look at the exhibition in the following report.
Most people didn't grow up learning about the role of slavery in the city, but adults and children are now flocking to the New York Historical Society to learn more.
What goes through people's mind when they find out there were slaves right here in New York City?
"Like, how can that be? I'm living where slaves were," says young Queens resident Kayne Nau.
The exhibit has become a major attraction for school trips. From first grade through college, students are learning about the real history of New York and how it was not only the south that built wealth on the backs of slaves.
"It's interesting because you learn a lot about things you never knew," says Nau
"We are studying the Civil War and we are learning about slavery," says Brooklyn resident Peter Holtan.
The Historical Society says never before in it's 200-year existence have so many people turned out for one of its exhibits.
"We will have had thousands of teachers come through this exhibition, and all of them are intent in bringing their classes back," says New York Historical Society President Louise Mirrer. "This is exactly what we wanted."
Teachers who come to this exhibit are given a book, a curriculum on slavery in New York, to take back to their schools in order to teach it to their students.
Added to the exhibit this week is a collection called Finding Priscilla's Children, 249-year-old paperwork documenting the enslaving of a girl from Sierra Leone who was sold in South Carolina. Historians were able to find her seventh-generation granddaughter.
The United Nations ambassador from Sierra Leone says it's all very emotional.
"A lot of African-Americans are now going to journey to discover the part of Africa that their ancestors came from, to discover their ancestral homes," says ambassador Joa Pemagbi.
The exhibit runs through March of next year, and then in the fall of 2006 there will be another one examining the lives of former slaves after they were freed in New York.

REPURPOSE | Trash into Treasures
Text by Wendy Becktold
Growing up, I was a mall rat, but now the idea of a climate-controlled labyrinth filled with shiny new consumer goods is depressing. I prefer the overflowing racks and shelves of the local thrift store, with its back-of-the-closet scent and eclectic selection. Apparently, I'm not alone. In 2008, 14 percent of consumers regularly shopped at thrift stores; now 20 percent do.
Jenna Isaacson, a lifelong thrifter and a photojournalist who has been visiting secondhand stores around the country and taking pictures for the past three years, says a lot of people tell her they shop at these stores to reduce their footprint. She has also noticed how thrift stores capture the character of the community — what sports teams people like, who they vote for, their religions," says Isaacson, who blogs at All Thrifty States ( "A thrift store in Kansas had a whole rack of overalls. You don't find that on the East Coast." Maybe that's why malls feel soulless by comparison.
For this project, I picked up a cutting board and a plate stand at a thrift store. I glued a Scrabble tile rack to the cutting board and propped the board on the plate stand. Now when I'm cooking from online recipes, I have a sturdy counter—top perch for my iPad that is out of the way of spills. I could have bought something similar at Pottery Barn, but this was much cheaper and simply has more soul.

The efficiency of maintenance and repair management is a key issue for the majority of industrial enterprises.
The current level of equipment depreciation at the majority of RF enterprises exceeds 60%; furthermore, the historically established maintenance and repair management system, which was designed for the guaranteed manufacture of the required volumes without account of expenses, has become unusable in conditions of market economy.
During the implementation of performance optimization projects for international and Russian companies, Deloitte consultants developed their own methodology for the improvement of the maintenance and repair management system which includes three consecutive stages:
The new maintenance and repair management system must cover various aspects of the company's operations; its creation must be based on innovative approaches to the differentiation of equipment and the creation of an organizational structure of a repair service. Furthermore, a significant part of the maintenance and repair system includes new budgeting and planning processes, repair works, budget form templates and record documents of work completed as well as methodologies for the management of spare parts and relationships with contractors.

A letter to my Beloved Grandchildren
Dear sweet, innocent grandchildren,
I want to apologize to you for the failure of my generation and your parent's generation. We have failed to secure your future by allowing 50 years of government waste. We have allowed our government representatives to recklessly spend America into oblivion, promising all sorts of giveaway programs, too many to mention here. Besides, by the time you reach maturity, all those wasteful entitlements will have gone up in smoke.
The reason they will be gone is because we voted for higher and higher taxes for funding until that avenue was exhausted. Then we let our governments at all levels to borrow creating a deficit of now over 14 trillion dollars, a number so high it can never be paid off. Now, very shortly our cities, states and federal government will have to bankrupt and default on these debts.
To make matter worse our federal reserve is printing so much paper money that inflation will devalue the dollar rendering it worthless. If you get your hands on some of these paper dollars, save them. They will be worth more as toilet paper than money to you.
Since the 1960's I've tried to tell everyone including your parents of the folly of deficit spending, but I was always shouted down as being a nazi, racist, and other names. By the time you are old enough to understand, I will be dead and gone, but there are many books written on the history of this subject that you can read.
Last year some voters began to wake up and elected a new group to congress who vows they will stop all this insanity, but it's too late. They want to balance the budget, but won't be successful because there are too many people who still want their paper pork. Let's say they did balance the budget, that would do nothing for the deficit which with interest is still growing. An economist recently figured that even if our leaders could somehow create a yearly surplus of $500 billion, that with the current low interest rates it would still take 40 years to pay off the deficit. But what if interest rates rise, as they surely will to get investors to buy more government bonds to refinance this debt?
Don't worry about that my grandchildren because long before you are grown, the dollar will collapse and you will be left to pick up the pieces and start over. So will some of those of my generation and your parent's generation, because the end is upon us all. If the internet is still around, you can read all the criticism I'll receive for posting this letter. But this letter is for you and your generation not for all the current greedy naysayers.
Love and good luck,
your grandfather

How CD BABY works
CD Baby is technically a distributor. Technically they can give UPC Barcodes to the albums we are distributing. This is great because to get a traditional BARCODE it normally costs $900. Through CD BABY it is now $40 and its all legal. Heres why. CD BABY deals with SoundScan every week anyway, they actually do the reporting of our barcode information to SoundScan for us. Yes - they register it for us. This way we don't need to fill out any forms & send it to SoundScan. When CD Baby assigns someone a barcode, they give SoundScan the information of that album, (Artist Name, Album Title, Release Date, Parent Label, Sub Label, Format, and Selling Price.) We have to put "CD Baby" as "Parent Label" - but everything else is listed there as you. No other ties to CD Baby. The UCC doesn't keep track of what barcode goes to what product. That's not their job. The UCC only tracks what parent company has what 6-digit-code at the beginning of the UPC barcode. Then it's up to the company itself (CD Baby in this case) to keep track of what unique barcode (12 digits) goes to what product. So in music circles, the only One Central Database of all those barcodes is on SoundScan. This means if our unique barcode is listed in SoundScan as Drum Dynasty, then it might as well be your barcode entirely! Nobody really cares which digits belong to whom. They just care that it's a unique number, not assigned to any other product in the world. Only if someone really went and contacted the UCC and dug into their company database would they find that the first 6 digits belong to Hit Media Inc (a.k.a. "CD Baby") - and so what if they do? Luckily with CD Baby we send checks to artists every week anyway, acting as a distributor anyway, and if someone ever accidentally sent a check to CD Baby for your CDs sold at a chain store anywhere in the world - we would just forward the full amount directly to you.

The UN Security Council has called on all Iraqi political parties "to respect the certified election results and the choices of the Iraqi people".
The body also urged the country's political leaders "to avoid inflammatory rhetoric and actions".
As the Security Council issued its non-binding statement on Wednesday, political manoeuvring intensified following last Friday's release of final election results that gave a coalition led by Iyad Allawi, a secular Shia former prime minister who drew on strong Sunni support, two seats more than a bloc led by Nouri al-Maliki, the prime minister.
Al-Maliki has called for a full manual recount and his bloc has submitted legal complaints, but Iraq's election commission dismissed those calls, saying there had been no evidence of serious electoral fraud.
The Security Council congratulated the people and government of Iraq for holding a "successful election" and welcomed Friday's announcement of the provisional results by the Independent High Electoral Commission (IHEC), saying it looked forward to certification by the Iraq's supreme court.
Security Council members noted the findings of international and independent Iraqi observers "who affirmed their confidence in the overall integrity of the election".
"The members of the security council look forward to the formation of the new government in a spirit of co-operation and respect for national unity," it said in a statement.
Assemblying coalitions
In Baghdad, both Allawi and al-Maliki are seeking to assemble coalitions to get the 163 seats necessary to secure a majority in parliament and form a government.
Allawi was dealt a blow this week when the Justice and Accountability Commission said six members of his Iraqiya bloc should not have been allowed to stand in the polls.
The commission, charged with preventing former members of Saddam Hussein's banned Baath party from returning to public life, said it would appeal to the IHEC to have the six barred from parliament.
Allawi also complained this week that Tehran was "interfering" in the political process to try to block his path by holding talks with all of Iraq's major political groups except his secular Iraqiya bloc.
Senior figures from al-Maliki's State of Law Alliance and other major Iraqi blocs have visited the Iranian capital since the polls, but no official from Iraqiya is known to have travelled to Tehran.
Iran's reaction
Iran denied it was meddling in Iraqi politics, with a foreign ministry spokesman telling state radio on Wednesday that efforts by Iraqi parties "to form the next government are an internal matter, and they will obviously do that according to their electoral plans and without taking into account foreign interests".
"Iran does not interfere in this," he said, but added that Tehran was ready to "host Iraqi political movements to help with the formation of the new government as soon as possible".
Whether Allawi or al-Maliki gets to be prime minister could hinge on a referendum planned by the movement led by Muqtada al-Sadr, the Shia Muslim religious leader.
Al-Sadr's movement emerged from the polls as the most powerful faction in the INA bloc that could help form a coalition government and Friday's referendum is to gauge support levels among its supporters for would-be prime ministers, including al-Maliki and Allawi.

Drew Peterson gets more time to think about legal representation
By Janet Lundquist email@example.com October 12, 2012 12:16PM
Article Extras
Updated: November 15, 2012 6:27AM
Drew Peterson told a judge Friday he did not agree with claims that his lead attorney lied to him and botched his case.
Then he said he wanted more time to think about it.
The acrimony among the lawyers claiming to represent Peterson came to a head Friday in Will County Circuit Court.
Judge Edward Burmila had the task of sorting out what has become a confusing mash of motions and accusations, as two lawyers each claimed Peterson wanted him on the case but not the other guy.
Peterson, 58, is facing up to 60 years in prison for the murder of his third wife, Kathleen Savio.
A motion for a new trial was filed Tuesday by Naperville attorney John Paul Carroll and his partner Michelle Gonzalez that they say was based on Peterson telling them the ways lead attorney Joel Brodsky provided ineffective assistance.
Carroll and Gonzalez were not officially Peterson's attorneys when they filed the motion.
When Gonzalez stepped up to appear on Peterson's behalf Friday, he said he didn't want her to represent him.
Peterson also initially told Burmila he did not agree with the allegations against Brodsky.
The motion lists 14 reasons why Peterson believes Brodsky failed in his representation of Peterson, including lying to his client, encouraging Peterson to generate as much publicity as possible, preventing Peterson from hiring additional lawyers and in calling Harry Smith, a witness who was a key part of Peterson's conviction, to testify during the trial when Peterson did not want him to.
Burmila urged Peterson to get an attorney other than Brodsky to go over the motion with him.
"Anybody against whom the allegations are directed should not be the person to advise the defendant whether or not he should adopt the allegations," Burmila told him. "It would be a fatal error to ask that person for advice on how they should be addressed by the court."
Later in the hearing, Peterson told Burmila he wanted more time to consider the allegations.
Gonzalez said Peterson changed his mind about her representation in front of the judge, and that he told her earlier Friday morning that he wanted her and Carroll to represent him and go forward with the motion.
"He seems to have a loyalty" to Brodsky, Gonzalez said. "He was concerned about Mr. Brodsky's reputation if the motion goes through.
"Brodsky doesn't seem to be concerned about anyone but himself."
On Friday, Brodsky accused Carroll of writing the motion "from reading a few newspaper articles and adding a little bit of his fantasy to it." Brodsky also said he was planning to file a complaint against Carroll with the state's Attorney Registration and Discipline Commission.
But Gonzalez said she and Carroll expect Peterson will eventually want to proceed with their motion for a new trial, and that they will handle the motion as his attorneys.
Burmila set a hearing for Oct. 30 to discuss the issues in that motion.
On Thursday, Brodsky blasted Carroll in a motion to throw out Carroll's motion, contending Carroll is trying to improperly push his way into Peterson's notorious case by claiming Peterson's legal team bungled his defense.
Carroll and Gonzalez's motion also includes a scathing 15-page letter attorney Steve Greenberg sent Brodsky after Peterson "fired" Greenberg from his defense team.
Peterson decided to keep Greenberg on the team, despite a letter he wrote saying he wanted him fired. Greenberg had filed a motion to withdraw from the case, and Peterson on Friday asked Burmila to deny Greenberg's request.
Brodsky recently filed a motion asking Burmila to make an immediate ruling on Greenberg's motion to withdraw, and asked the judge to do it quietly and without fanfare, which drew Burmila's wrath.
"For you, of all people, to say that the court should do something to avoid fanfare is unconscionable," Burmila told Brodsky. "I'm telling you — we're not having colloquy — don't do that again."
Outside the courthouse, Brodsky said he never thought Peterson would fire him.
"There's not a chance in the world that I would be out of this case," Brodsky said. "I'm sure this is an issue that's going to go away."
Also Friday, Burmila set a hearing on the motion for a new trial for Dec. 19, and pushed Peterson's sentencing hearing back to Jan. 10.

(Yahoo!) - This may be a battle for the cutest baby girl! Just a day after Kim Kardashian welcomed her daughter, her ex-boyfriend Reggie Bush shared the first snapshot of his month-old daughter, Briseis, with the world.
The proud papa posted a picture on Instagram on Sunday, holding his little angel in his arms. The adorable baby is Reggie and his fiancée Lilit Avagyan's first child together, and, judging by the cuteness of this little one, we can only hope that they continue to have more!

While Reggie made the world wait for more than a month to meet their bundle of joy, ironically, the introduction came just a day after Kim gave birth to a baby girl of her own with her boyfriend, Kanye West.
But it doesn't seem like anything more than a coincidence. The former USC football star told Us Weekly in May, "I always wish her well. Always."

Anyone out at avon pier today in the morning taking pictures?
Anyone out at avon pier today in the morning taking pictures?
Nope, but my dad told me some 15 year old boy from Wilmington died at Avon Pier like yesterday. That is sad.
Whenever I head down to Hatteras I always hit up the 316 indoor park who is led by the Christian Surfers. My dad knows the guy from Natural Art and I think that is how he found out. It is sad, apparently he got stuck between the pier and got worked bad. God please help his family.
I was surfing down by the light house. On our way back up north we saw ambulances and park rangers screaming towards Avon Pier. Then we saw a coast guard helicopter fly over. Had no idea what it was for, but now it makes sense.
According to this site
His leash got caught in the pilings. His name was Craig. Very sad.

In some of the most depressing beauty findings in recent history, studies in Sweden found that sleep-deprived people were perceived as less attractive—wait for it—sadder than the same subjects well rested. Annoying, right? After all, "sleep-deprived" includes most of us, since the average woman gets only six and a half hours a night, not the eight doctors say she requires. Clearly, we all need more shut-eye—but in the meantime, we could use a little magic to help us outwit the Swedish data and fake "awake." Here, the tricks every sleepy woman should know:
Great tips! How do you 'fake' sleep when you have not gotten enough shut eye?

6 Food Quality Control Tips for Restaurants
As the saying goes, "You only get one chance to make a first impression," and this is as true for restaurants as it is for people. If a customer's first dining experience is horrible, the food and service were terrible, they will never come back. For this reason alone, it is important that restaurants manage both the quality of their food and their service.
1. Train Staff
Knowledge is power, and training staff to follow safe food handling practices is the best way to assure food quality and safety. The importance of training also goes for servers, cashiers or anybody else who deals directly with customers. A quality restaurant experience is about more than just serving good food but making the entire dining experience enjoyable as well. It is also wise to retrain staff who have been there for a while to just give them a refresher on proper procedures and why certain practices are important. >> Learn more about training restaurant staff
2. Lead by Example
Telling employees about food quality management will only go so far. Restaurant managers also need to show employees how important it is by practicing what they preach. Whether it be through checking food temperatures, manning the grill or personally checking on customers, the restaurant manager is the person employees look to on how to act in every situation. >> Learn More about Becoming a Restaurant Manager
3. Initiate a Food Safety Certification Program
A food safety certification program takes some of the guesswork out of food quality management. In order to become certified, each restaurant has to implement very specific practices that are designed to assure food is being handled, prepared and served by the safest means possible.
Food quality control begins the minute it enters the restaurant, and that means all shipments need to be checked against spoilage so only the best ingredients enter the restaurant. Once accepted, the food needs to be stored properly (whether it be frozen, refrigerated or dry storage) in order to maintain high quality and maximize shelf life.
5. Stress Consistency
As mentioned before, you only get once chance to make a first impression, but keeping that impression alive is critical to maintaining a client base. If portion sizes or staff service changes on a daily basis, customers will lose faith and start coming to the restaurant. Therefore, it is important that staff properly measure all food portions. As far as server consistency goes, a lot of managers tell servers to leave their problems at the door, meaning don't bring your issues to work and start every day in the restaurant fresh so they can give customers the same enjoyable dining experience every time.
6. Hire a Quality Assurance Manager
Sometimes, managing food quality is so daunting a task, especially for large commercial kitchens, that it can become a full-time job. For that, there are quality assurance managers. Quality assurance managers have at least a two-year degree in food sciences or a related field and are responsible for, among other things, training staff in proper food handling and regularly monitoring food quality in the commercial kitchen.

To glean is to gather the leftover food after or during the harvest of grain, grapes, etc. Under the Mosaic Law the landowner was required to leave certain areas of the field unharvested, so that the poor and needy could come in and gather grain, grapes, and olives. This is called gleaning.
- Lev. 19:9-10, "Now when you reap the harvest of your land, you shall not reap to the very corners of your field, nor shall you gather the gleanings of your harvest. 10 'Nor shall you glean your vineyard, nor shall you gather the fallen fruit of your vineyard; you shall leave them for the needy and for the stranger. I am the Lord your God."
- Leviticus 23:22, "When you reap the harvest of your land, moreover, you shall not reap to the very corners of your field nor gather the gleaning of your harvest; you are to leave them for the needy and the alien. I am the Lord your God."
- Deuteronomy 24:19-21, "When you reap your harvest in your field and have forgotten a sheaf in the field, you shall not go back to get it; it shall be for the alien, for the orphan, and for the widow, in order that the Lord your God may bless you in all the work of your hands. 20 When you beat your olive tree, you shall not go over the boughs again; it shall be for the alien, for the orphan, and for the widow. 21 When you gather the grapes of your vineyard, you shall not go over it again; it shall be for the alien, for the orphan, and for the widow."
- Ruth 2:2-3, "And Ruth the Moabitess said to Naomi, "Please let me go to the field and glean among the ears of grain after one in whose sight I may find favor." And she said to her, "Go, my daughter." 3 So she departed and went and gleaned in the field after the reapers; and she happened to come to the portion of the field belonging to Boaz, who was of the family of Elimelech."

Hey guys, I'm on the back end of a very long cut, my first real foray into fitness. I'm down from 280 to 195, with about 20 lbs to go before I start my first bulk. The stuff I've read on this forum has been invaluable, so thanks for that, first of all.
I'm having a problem getting past the 195 mark, and the reason for that is that I'm REALLY f hungry all the time lately, so I've been tinkering with ways to manipulate my intake for satiety on days when I have more free time, and am therefor more likely to eat. What I'm wondering is, is it so crucial to hit daily macros if all my numbers are right at the end of the week? Or could I eat five days per week at a 2,000 kcal deficit and a ton of protein, and then two days per week at a 2,000 kcal surplus and a ton of carbs and fat, with the result being that I hit my calorie and macro goals for the week?
I hope this makes sense. Thanks for any and all replies.

(L-R) BRADLEY COOPER and JENNIFER LAWRENCE star in SILVER LININGS PLAYBOOK
Updated: December 16, 2012 6:31AM
When you see your profession or your passion depicted on the big screen, it's difficult to suspend disbelief and accept the difference between the reality of what you know and the fiction of what's happening in the movie.
Cops who see cop movies write me to say, "It would never work that way." Lawyers who see courtroom dramas tell me, "You'd be held in contempt if you tried that in a real case." Strippers —
Well. You don't really hear from strippers about the authenticity of stripper scenes in the movies.
Proofreading the playbook
As a serious amateur poker player and lifelong student of gambling, I expect most movies about poker and sports wagering and other forms of betting to get it wrong, or to take great dramatic license in the service of heightened storytelling. Authenticity takes a back seat to climactic scenes that have even casual gamblers rolling their eyes at the ridiculousness of it all.
Sometimes a film with a gambling theme is equal parts accurate and incredulous, e.g., "Silver Linings Playbook," opening Friday.
Based on the novel by Matthew Quick and directed by David O. Russell ("The Fighter," "Three Kings"), "Silver Linings Playbook" stars Bradley Cooper as Pat, fresh out of a stint in an institution and living with his mother and father in the Philadelphia home in which he grew up.
For my full review of the movie, you can go to the Sun-Times' website or richardroeper.com. Here we're going to concentrate on the gambling aspect.
De Niro's Pat Sr. is a hardcore Eagles fan who runs a small bookmaking operation but is also a gambler. (Never a healthy combo platter.) Pat Sr. engages in a series of OCD rituals before and during every Eagles game. He also believes his son is a human good-luck charm and he wants Pat Jr. by his side for every play, wearing his Eagles jersey and rooting for the Eagles as if their lives depended on it.
In its depiction of fans who wear jerseys and paint their faces and get into brawls with other grown adults in the parking lot before the game even starts, "Silver Linings Playbook" gets it right. The OCD stuff, in which fans believe their rituals can somehow affect a game? Hey, it's the same silliness we see in those beer commercials.
However, the nitty-gritty details of the wagering left me confused. Pat Sr. is a bookie — meaning he takes wagers from other gamblers and tries to balance it out so he can take his 10 percent "vig" without risk. But his friend Randy, the guy hanging out at the house all the time, seems to be the REAL bookie, and he's the one who takes all the action when Pat Sr. makes a ridiculous parlay combining an unnaturally unfavorable spread against the Eagles and the score Pat Jr. and Tiffany (the widow who's romancing him) will achieve at the dance competition. Granted, some people will be on anything, but the big finale bet is more than a bit of a stretch.
Also, if you're a hardcore gambler, you simply cannot bet on the home team every week. You'll go broke every time.
Die-hard swingers
Sports wagering plays an even bigger part in the plot of "Lay the Favorite," arriving in theaters on Dec. 7 and playing now On Demand. Based on the non-fiction memoir from Beth Haymer and directed by the amazingly versatile Stephen Frears ("The Grifters," "High Fidelity," "The Queen"), this is a loud and quirky, Runyonesque tale that clicks more often than it misfires.
Bruce Willis nails the soul of the veteran high roller as Dink, who can be charismatic and benevolent when he's on a winning streak — and mean as a snake when he goes cold. As in "Silver Linings Playbook," there's a little too much emphasis here on the whole human good-luck charm thing, this time with Rebecca Hall's Beth playing the former stripper who falls into a job working with Dink and his crew. But, hey, it's a movie intended for more than just the inside-gambler audience.
Also doing fine work: Vince Vaughn as a much sleazier professional gambler than Dink. This guy couldn't care less about the human consequences as long as he can feel the thrill of the bet and he gets paid in the end.
As a complete viewing experience, "Lay the Favorite" isn't nearly as strong a film as "Silver Linings Playbook," but when it comes to those insider details about the world of the wager, it's the superior effort.
But like so many gambling movies we've seen before, both of these efforts just can't resist that One Last Big Gamble that comes down to One Last Big Play as Time Runs Out.
It's the gambling movie equivalent of the guy running through the airport in a rom-com, telling the girl if she gets on that plane, she'll regret it for the rest of her life.

School News
Ralph DeWitt
The Adler School community mourns the loss and celebrates the life of Ralph DeWitt, a School Trustee and valued friend to many, who passed away October 28.
Mr. DeWitt joined the Adler School community in 2009 as a member of the Board of Trustees. He was a member of the Board that worked with the School to develop and launch an ambitious five-year plan through 2015 for the School's continued robust growth, sustained academic quality, and innovation.
In addition to his service with the Adler School, Mr. DeWitt was the Manager of the Village of Homewood, a position to which he was appointed in 2011. He began his career as a Chicago police officer in 1971, rising through the ranks from patrolman to commanding officer before joining the Cook County State's Attorney Office. In 1991, he was named Deputy Chief of the Office's Investigations Bureau. In 2008, he became Chief of the Bureau, the first African-American to hold the position.
"Ralph brought excellence, care, and humor to his every endeavor—with us at the School, with his family, and in his public service," said Raymond E. Crossman, Ph.D., President of the Adler School. "We convey our sorrow and condolences to all who loved him and to all those he loved."
Please click here to read an obituary for Mr. Dewitt. At the request of his family, Dr. Crossman will speak with others in tribute to Mr. Dewitt's service to community at a memorial service on Nov. 10.
The Adler School is honored and humbled that the family of Ralph DeWitt has designated the Adler School as one of two recipients for memorial donations in lieu of flowers. Donations may be made at adler.edu/giving. Please indicate the gift is in memory of Ralph DeWitt. For more information, contact Anthony C. Chimera, Vice President for Institutional Advancement.

Ron Fields Congratulates Facilities Mgmt. Workers - Click Here to See List.
Ron Fields, Assistant Vice Pres. for Facilities Mgmt., and Rick Straka, Finance and Administration Division Vice President, hosted a meeting Jan. 10, 2012, for all Facilities Management workers. During the two hour session a number of topics were covered and questions addressed.
Both Straka and Fields praised the work of Facilities Management employees and provided feedback on what others say. Fields paid particularly attention to the fact that two outside agencies had recently awarded Facilities Management plaques complimenting the workers in all that they do - noted were MnSCU's "Excellence in Facilities Management" (11th such award for MSU), and the "Corporate Award" recently received from the Mankato Area Council for Quality.
It was also brought up that feedback from Admissions tour groups was very positive on "the look" of the grounds and building interiors, which is great news as such attention to detail helps sell the campus to student prospects and their parents.

Ron J. Fields, the new Assistant Vice President for Facilities Management, is now on board and in charge of the 134 employees within Facilities Management.
Mr. Fields has served as Superintendent of Facilities Services at Century College since 2006. Previous experience includes construction and project management services, Director of Construction and Business Support Services at MnSCU in St. Paul, Interim Assistant Executive Director for Financial Affairs and Capital Development at the Arizona Board of Regents, Phoenix, Arizona and Associate Director for Planning and Construction of Facilities Services and other positions at Northern Arizona University in Flagstaff, Arizona.
The IT Services Division has purchased two new all electric utility vehicles for the pickup and transportation of computers to department customers throughout campus. Use of the vehicles should minimize IT workers pushing carts full of computer gear on sidewalks in all kinds of weather. The idea for the electric vehicles came out of an IT Services employee retreat held in August 2011.
Minnesota State University, Mankato's performing arts center was renamed the Earley Center for Performing Arts – for Dean Emerita Jane F. Earley – during a celebration and naming ceremony Saturday, Nov. 12.
A reception honoring Earley began at 1 p.m. in the lobby of the performing arts center. A program began at 2 p.m. in the center's Elias J. Halling Recital Hall, and continued in the center's Ted Paul Theatre.
President Richard Davenport and other officials spoke at the event. In addition, the Concert Choir and faculty member David Viscoli performed, with songs from the musical "Altar Boyz," which is currently playing on the Theatre & Dance mainstage.
The Earley Center for Performing Arts, completed in 1967 and home to the departments of Theatre & Dance and Music, hosts dozens of theatrical performances each year in the 529-seat Ted Paul Theatre and flexible-seating Andreas Theatre, as well as musical performances in the 350-seat Elias J. Halling Recital Hall.
The center also houses full scene and costume shops, band and choir rooms, music library, faculty offices and various studios, classrooms and practice rooms.
One of the nation's longest-serving arts and humanities deans, Earley has been honored by the national Council of Colleges of Arts and Sciences, which she led as president. She also chaired many other organizations, including the National Conference for Academic Deans, the Minnesota Humanities Commission, the Minnesota ACE network for women, and the Bush Collaboration for Faculty Development.
She led the successful donation drive that raised funds for Andreas Theatre, built in 2000.
Before being named dean, Earley was assistant, associate and acting dean of the College of Arts & Sciences. She also served for one year as the university's interim vice president for Academic Affairs.

Now finished is the application of an asphalt finish to top off the weather-worn gravel road which connects the back of Gage to the Standeford Observatory, the Andreas Observatory, Recreation Fields, Rapelling Tower, and the Ropes Course. The old road gave up the ghost this Halloween and the ruts and potholes will go away, finally. Roadgraders finished work Tuesday, November 8, 2011.
On November 17th. 2011, A new higher fence has been installed in back of the women's soccer pitch goal (East end). Now wayward soccer balls will not go sailing into nearby recreation fields during a women's soccer game.
A training session was held Friday, October 28, for those who will be helping out the Grounds Crew this winter when massive snow storms dump their usual on good old MSU.
At the crack of dawn Wednesday, October 26th, the Grounds Maintenance crew got a donut or two from Rick Straka, Finance & Administration Vice President. "People have complimented us on the grounds and this is my way of saying thanks," said Straka.
V.P Straka also took the opportunity to present a certificate to Ron Erickson for his 28 years of service to the Grounds Maintenance Department.
Though other Wiecking Offices had Homecoming decorations, the hallway outside the Facilities Management Office was identified by the Homecoming judges as the winner of the campus-wide office decoration competition.
"The judges were very impressed with the office decorations this year for Homecoming 2011. It was a hard decision to make, but the judges ended up giving 1st place in the office decorating contest to Facilities Management located in Wiecking!! Congratulations and I will be bringing over some Buffalo Wild Wings free wing chips to the department! Thank you to every department that participated this year! This has been the best involvement I have heard of for Homecoming! I am looking forward to next year already." said Kelsey Busch - The Homecoming Chair - IMPACT.
The Facilities Management Office hallway decoration helpers included:
Kudos also go out to the Facilities Services Office for its efforts.
Josselyn Bishop, a MSU student who passed away this summer, was remembered in a formal tree planting memorial service held adjacent to McElroy 'H' Wing on Friday, September 30th. MSU's Groundskeeper Ron Erickson, who retired on October 7th, worked closely with the Bishop family in getting the tree purchased and planted. Associate Vice President for Student Affairs David Jones represented the University at the memorial service along with Physical Plant Director Mike Lexvold and David Cowan, Interim Assistant Vice President for Facilities Management.
Vice President Rick Straka announces the appointment of David Cowan as the Interim Assistant Vice President for Facilities Management replacing Sean McGoldrick who left for a new job as the Associate Vice President for Facilities Services at University of Nevada, Reno. Over the next several months a search committee chaired by Athletics Director Kevin Buisman, will be working to find a permanent replacement.
Finance & Administrative Vice President Rick Straka met with Facilities Management employees to review University budget issues and announce the appointment of Cowan.

School of Education
Application and Admission: Music Education
The number of students admitted to the music education program is contingent upon available space; enrollment limits may be necessary to ensure students have reasonable and timely access to required School of Music courses.
To be considered for admission into the teacher certification program, students must have
- Earned at least 54 total transferable college-level credits
- Earned a minimum cumulative grade point average (GPA) of 2.75
- Earned a minimum cumulative GPA of 3.0 across all Music and Music Perf department courses
- Earned a minimum 2.5 GPA in the two-year core sequence of music theory and music history courses (121/171, 122/172, 221/271, 211, 212).
During the second year in the core music curriculum each student must sign up for an audition/interview with the music education faculty. The audition includes, but is not limited to, performance, sight-singing, and keyboard harmonization components.
Students who successfully pass the audition/interview process must then:
- Print, complete, and submit the following forms to Education Academic Services, Room 139 Education Building, 1000 Bascom Mall:
- Submit transcripts from all other colleges or universities attended. Applications cannot be processed unless a complete academic record is presented for consideration.
- File a major declaration form with the School of Music. Consult with the Music Education advisor regarding this process.
- Take and submit passing Pre-Professional Skills Test (PPST)/Praxis I scores to Education Academic Services. The PPST/Praxis I is a basic skills test offered by Educational Testing Service (ETS) and required for admission to all state teacher preparation programs by the Wisconsin Department of Public Instruction. Designed to measure reading, writing, and mathematics skills, the PPST is available in two formats, paper-based and computer-based. A fee is required of the student. State minimum scores for the PPST/Praxis I are Reading, 175; Mathematics, 173; and Writing, 174. Find important registration information at the ETS website. Important note: The UW–Madison School of Educationís institutional recipient code is 1846; use of another code will prevent Education Academic Services from receiving scores.
Each student accepted into the music education certification program will enroll jointly with the School of Music (College of Letters and Science) and the School of Education. Consultation with the music advisor at the outset of these programs and each semester thereafter is strongly recommended.
Criminal Background Investigation and Disclosure Statement
Criminal background checks will be required of all admitted students. Applicants will also be asked to complete a disclosure statement. More detailed information is available here.

Eating Nuts May Lengthen Life
Diane Fennell
July 26, 2013
People who eat nuts, and in particular walnuts, more than three times a week have a reduced risk of death from cardiovascular disease and cancer, according to new research from Spain. Cardiovascular disease is the leading cause of death in people who have diabetes.
Previous studies have indicated that increasing nut consumption can lower the risk of death from coronary heart disease and cancer. To investigate the link between frequency of nut consumption and risk of death in those at high cardiovascular risk, researchers looked at over 7,000 older people (ages 55 to 90) in Spain. Participants were randomly assigned to follow either a Mediterranean diet (a style of eating that emphasizes fruits, vegetables, beans, whole grains, seeds, nuts, and healthful fats such as olive oil) supplemented with extra virgin olive oil, a Mediterranean diet supplemented with nuts, or a low-fat eating plan.
After a follow-up period of 4.8 years, the researchers found that people who ate nuts generally had a lower body-mass index (a measure of weight relative to height) and a smaller waist compared to those who rarely or never ate nuts. They were also more likely to be physically active and less likely to smoke. Additionally, there were fewer people who had Type 2 diabetes or who were taking medicine for high blood pressure in the group that consumed the most nuts.
People eating more than three servings a week of nuts (with a serving considered to be 28 grams, or roughly 1 ounce, of nuts) reduced their risk of dying from cardiovascular disease by 55% and their risk of dying from cancer by 40%. Overall, those eating nuts had a 39% lower risk of death, and people who included walnuts in their diet had a 45% lower risk of death.
According to lead study author Jordi Salas-Salvadó, MD, PhD, "Quite how nuts are able prevent premature mortality is not entirely clear, nor why walnut[s] should be better for you than other nuts. Walnuts have particularly high content of alpha-linoleic acid and phytochemicals, especially in their skin both of which, along with fiber and minerals such as calcium, magnesium and potassium, may contribute to their healthy effect."
For more information, read the article "People Who Eat Nuts More Than Three Times a Week Have Reduced Risk of Dying from Cancer or Cardiovascular Disease" or see the study in the journal BMC Medicine. And to learn more about the health benefits of nuts for people with diabetes, click here.
This is good news and bad news as I've always enjoyed nuts. Unfortunately as I have grown older, it has become more and more difficult to digest them. The results are very uncomfortable. Digestive enzymes (like Beano or papaya) help a bit, but require planning to make sure I have some available whenever I might encounter nuts. It's turned one of my favorite healthy snacks into a burden I'm just as likely to avoid.

I like Landon but agree with the pp that said it's too close to Lincoln.
I don't really like Avery...although I do prefer it on a boy.
This. Landon is pretty popular (#34 on SS names list) but I don't know that I've actually ever met someone with that name IRL.
Sam Buttons:While I do like Avery for a boy, with the popularity it has amongst girls vs boys right now, he'll likely be in school with several girl Averys and I worry it could have the same teasing opportunities as a boy named Robin.
I'd go with Landon or another option.
