Throughout time, the Lake Roosevelt area has been a crossroads for the forces and desires of both nature and man.
Today, the area largely reflects the character and characteristics of human development and settlement over the past 150 years. With a closer look, however, one can appreciate a natural and cultural history as rich as any in America. This brief history merely touches the surface of why this area is so special.
For more literature, visit the Lake Roosevelt National Recreation Area Administrative History, the Spokane Tribe of Indians web site, and the Confederated Tribes of the Colville Indian Reservation web site. Resource links provide additional information, including tourist attractions and learning opportunities for those passing through.
About two hundred million years ago, the landforms drifted into their current configuration as continents. Sixty-five million years ago dinosaurs became extinct. Twenty to fifty million years ago, volcanoes spewed molten lava and tectonic shifts helped form mountainous areas in the Northwest.
Seventeen million years ago, some scientists believe a giant meteorite struck southeastern Oregon, causing floods of basalt lava. For a period of approximately four million years, lava spilled across the western lowlands and the Columbia Plateau began to form one of the largest basalt Plateaus in the world. Indeed, 42,000 cubic miles of lava flooded the Northwest from present day Lake Roosevelt into Oregon. In some places, the basalt is more than two miles thick.
Lake Roosevelt sits on the northern edge of these flows. The lava filled valleys, turning eastern Washington from a land of hills and mountains into a great, flat plateau. Today, there are many places where layers of lava can still be seen.
About one million years ago, these volcanic fires were followed by the deep freeze of the ice age. BACK TO TOP
Ice Age Floods
The big glaciers of the last ice age covered all the northern fringe of Washington and Idaho. In Washington, these glaciers advanced down the western part of the Okanogan Valley about as far south as Chelan. In Idaho, a finger of the ice sheet came down to Sandpoint, where it blocked the mouth of the Clark-Fork River. In so doing, an ice dam almost one-half mile high was created.
This ice dam resulted in the creation of Lake Missoula, which was 2,000 feet deep and stretched eastward some 200 miles into Montana. Approximately the size of Lake Ontario and Lake Erie combined, the dam holding this vast inland sea first burst 15,000 years ago. Torrents of ice- and dirt- filled water rushed down the Columbia River toward the Pacific Ocean. The floods cut deep canyons, also called coulees, into the underlying bedrock. Over approximately 2,500 years, the cycle of nature creating an ice dam, forming of a lake behind the dam, the dam failing, and catastrophic flooding would repeat itself up to seventy times.
The floods carved out cubic mile after cubic mile of earth, forming deep channels and digging out riverless canyons such as Dry Coulee, Spring Coulee and Moses Coulee in a matter of days. And the floods widened and deepened the Grand Coulee to a depth of 900 feet.
These catastrophic floods and the formation of Glacial Lake Missoula are referred to as the Ice Age Floods. BACK TO TOP
A 9000 Year History of Man
The Paleo-Indian times date back more than nine thousand years. Indigenous peoples used Kettle Falls as a base for food gathering and fishing. The people of this period used the natural resources of laminated quartzite (for chopping) and black argillite (for small tools).
The Ksunku period began about 6000 years ago. Archaeological evidence shows them to be accomplished hunters of fish and wildlife, and gatherers of native plants. About 2000 years ago, the Salish speaking people came to Kettle Falls. Over a period of one thousand years, its believed that their numbers increased substantially.
The Shwayip period brings us up to the 19th century. Several tribes populated the area, moving their encampments to make best use of the seasons and resources at their disposal. The Spokane Tribe, for instance, dispersed their winter camps into smaller groups in the Spring. By summer time, salmon fishing, hunting and root digging were central to their existence. Come fall, there was berry picking and intertribal social activities. By early winter, the smaller units regrouped to form winter camps along the river and creeks.
The Confederated Tribes of the Colville Indian Reservation relate a similar account of how their ancestors lived. They refer to their ancestors as nomadic: following the seasons and sources of food and moving from place to place to occupy fishing sites and to harvest berries and native plants. In their travels, our ancestors met other indigenous people of different speech and cultural practices. BACK TO TOP
The 1800s: Euro-American Influences and Settlement Arrive
Beginning in the early 1800s, Indian tribes in the area began coming in to regular contact with European-American cultures. Fur traders, explorers and missionaries brought people of vastly different cultures to this area for the first time.
David Thompson, who was active in the fur trade, is the most well known early explorer. He arrived in Kettle Falls during salmon fishing season in 1811. He writes of tribal members with their big woven baskets at the bottom of the falls (Kettle) capturing fish. His diaries talk of well constructed houses and he describes the village area as a kind of general rendezvous for news, trade, and settling disputes, in which these villagers acted as arbitrators, never joining any war party. By the beginning of July he was on his way down the Columbia looking for a trade route to the Pacific Ocean. He succeeded by making it to Fort Astoria and the Pacific Ocean.
A year before Thompson, two men built a small trading post in 1810 at the confluence of the Spokane and Little Spokane Rivers. It was a small, crude cabin which they named Spokane House. This was the first permanent white settlement in what would become the state of Washington.
By 1821, two of the largest trading companies, Hudson's Bay Company and the Northwest Company, combined. The merged companies decided to build Fort Colvile near Kettle Falls in 1826. Fort Colvile was named after the British director of the Hudsons Bay Company, Andrew Colvile.
As the influx of peoples continued, missionaries established themselves as well. Father DeSmet first visited Kettle Falls in 1841. By 1845, St. Pauls Mission was built on a high point overlooking the falls. St. Pauls Mission, which has an interpretive center, is open to the public.
The second half of the 1800s saw changes and influences to the area of ever increasing magnitude. Gold and other precious metals were discovered, the transcontinental railroad was built, and advertisements to farm the land brought more settlement. And with further settlement came new opportunities and increased conflict, struggle and sickness. BACK TO TOP
In 1853, the Washington territory was created. The first treaties between the U.S. government and Indian tribes came shortly after. As lands became more valuable, history saw the development of reservations where Indian tribes were often forcibly sent to live. By 1872, the Colville Indian Reservation was first created on its present location. In 1881, the Spokane Indian Reservation was created. Conflict and struggle was continuous for many.
Fort Spokane, with some success, was established in 1880 to protect the rights of both Indians and settlers on the Northern Columbia plateau. Because the Indians of the area were peaceful, no battles ever broke out between Indians and settlers.
Between war, movement to reservations and epidemics such as small pox, however, the populations of many Indian tribes in the region were decimated. Twelve distinct Indian tribes spanning distances from the Cascade mountains to Idaho were sent to live on the Colville reservation. They included the Colville, Lakes, San Poil-Nespelem, Southern Okanogan, Moses/Columbia, Wenatchi, Entiat, Chelan, Methow, Palus and the Chief Joseph band of the Nez Perce. Each had distinct cultures and were accustomed to a way of life that included migrating through thousands of square miles. In 1892, an act of Congress resulted in the north half of the Colville reservation being ceded and opened to settlement by non-Indians. Not until 1934 did Congress act to fully stop withdrawing of lands from the Colville Reservation. BACK TO TOP
The 20th Century
By the 1930s, America could be seen from two very different perspectives. One perspective is that of a relatively youthful nation coming of age in the world. Over the previous 130 years, America had grown from an agrarian society to one which used its wealth of natural resources and labor to embrace the industrial revolution. Westward expansion had brought America to the Pacific Ocean, the Civil War assured the union of the states, and World War I further established America as an international power.
A second perspective is one of poverty and uncertainty. With the stock market crash of 1929, droughts never experienced before and high unemployment, the 1930s were a time of crisis. In the Columbia Basin area, 40 percent of those that had come to till the soil had fled.
A new president, Franklin Roosevelt, announced a New Deal. Public works projects were developed to put America back to work again and invigorate investment in its resources. One of the largest and most ambitious projects was the building of Grand Coulee Dam. The first stakes were driven into the ground in 1933, and in 1935 Congress authorized the Columbia River Basin Project for irrigation, river regulation, power generation and other beneficial purposes. Its operations have grown to a size even beyond the imagination of those that first developed this extraordinary plan. BACK TO TOP
The economic benefits of the project are breathtaking. Over 600,000 acres of irrigation land that yields crops valued at $400 million annually; 6,800 megawatts of power capacity meets the needs of over four million residential customers annually; flood control saves billions of dollars in damage to downstream communities like Portland; and a National Recreation Area serving up to 1.5 million visitors a year.
These changes, however, also brought dramatic cultural and environmental shifts. With the building of Grand Coulee Dam, and then Chief Joseph Dam, salmon could no longer migrate to and from this area. The waters behind the dam rose 380 feet, inundating many tribal and non-tribal lands. Of particular cultural significance was the inundation of Kettle Falls, a focal point for catching salmon and social gatherings. For the Spokane Tribe, Spokane Falls played a similar role. Although not inundated, its place as a center of activity passed into history. Mitigating the cultural and environmental consequences of development is an ongoing challenge.
Lake Roosevelt is currently managed cooperatively through an agreement among between the Bureau of Reclamation, the National Park Service, the Bureau of Indian Affairs, the Colville Confederated Tribes and the Spokane Tribe of Indians. BACK TO TOP

found a new home!
Plenty of my friends are looking
for one too. Find a pet to adopt.
Find a pet to adopt |
My name is Jenny!
Facts about Jenny
- Breed: Australian Kelpie/Miniature Pinscher Mix
- Color: Tricolor (Tan/Brown & Black & White)
- Age: Adult
- Size: Med. 26-60 lbs (12-27 kg)
- Sex: Female
Jenny's Info...
I am already spayed, a special needs pet, and up to date with shots.
For medical fosters, we request a minimum donation of $150 for adoption. A medical foster pet is a pet that came into the organization injured or ill but after our care, including medical care such as surgery or HW treatment, has fully recovered and is now available for adoption. The medical foster fee is higher due to the high cost of medical care.
Other Pets at San Antonio R.O.C.K.S.
Why Adoption is a Great Option
Jenny, a San Antonio Australian Kelpie/Miniature Pinscher dog was adopted! Here's how you can benefit by looking at adoption as an option to buying a Australian Kelpie/Miniature Pinscher for sale in San Antonio, or seeking a Australian Kelpie/Miniature Pinscher dog from a breeder in San Antonio.
- Rescues and shelter volunteers in San Antonio already know the personality and tendencies of their pets. This means they can match you with the right pet. That will makes it much easier transition to owning a pet for yourself and your new pet.
- On average adoption fees are much less than you'd pay a San Antonio breeder, or pet store. Plus most often rescue pets have already been to the veterinarian for a check-up, had a round of vaccinations, and are spayed or neutered. That is a lot of savings!
- You will become a hero, and give a needy dog or cat a loving home. In fact, there are even Australian Kelpie/Miniature Pinscher breeders who help with Australian Kelpie/Miniature Pinscher rescue. One puppy or kitten adopted in San Antonio paves the way for another one to be saved.

very good poem... reminds me of "Puppy-dog love." Which many teens experience through school.. reminded me of how I felt with a few girlfriends in high-school.. but anyway.. to the technical problems I've spotted.
Imagen is mispelled.. should be imagine..
"You are the only person i ever thinked about so much"
The word "Thinked" doesn't exist.. should be "Thought"
and then the usual un-used commas where the rythm breaks, for instance...
"With eyes so blind, tears caress the cheek. (random ryming"
With thoughts so kind, fears hit their peak."
Overall.. tis a good poem.. and like I've said before, punctation is but a small factor of poetry in my book, though it doesn't hurt to exercise perfection :P

posted by: arley on 01.14.2010 at 08:54 am in Cooking Forum I live about 3 hours east of there and make a pilgrimage at least twice a year.
Great deals on bulk spices. One thing to look for if you like spicy food: chipotle powder. You can find canned chipotles anywhere, but this is the only place I've found it as a powder. It's roughly equivalent to the hot pimenton (smoked Spanish paprika) but it's very smoky and very hot. Addictive, and very easy to use--I have a filled a dedicated salt shaker with it and keep it by my stove and add it to eggs, meats, whatever. Great choice in oils. Lots of Spanish olive oils, classified as spicy or fruity or aromatic. Bulk organic coconut oil. Ditto on the advice to bring a big cooler. Lots of meats, including stuff that's hard to find elsewhere: rabbit, fresh duck (whole, and duck legs & breasts sold separately as well)--they have a good selection of halal meats as well. (Halal goat seems to be a good seller.) Good sausages made there, including landjaeger. Incredible seafood selection. They'll clean it for you right there. In addition to fish, they have all sorts of unusual items like octopus, squid, etc. Breads and baked goods: made on the premises. Every item I've tried has been at least very good, and some have been outstanding. Produce: lots of fresh veggies and fruits, including some really oddball stuff like durian fruit (don't ask--it's pretty nasty IMHO) One thing to remember: you may wish to bring a sweater or jacket. They keep the whole inside area pretty cool. It's a foodie paradise, and it's a good thing I live so far away; if I lived any closer I'd probably weigh 400 pounds. And as mentioned, it's cash or debit card only. No credit cards. Have fun! NOTES: <none>

RE: Dekalb Farmer's Market (Follow-Up #8)
posted by: adoptedbygreyhounds on 01.14.2010 at 12:19 pm in Cooking Forum Ditto what others posted about the cafeteria, meat, fish and cheese selections. (They have chicken feet!) It's a great place for buying a case of produce when you are in the canning mood and a good source for asian and other ethnic foods vegetables that you won't find anywhere else.
Be aware you have to check any large bag or backpack, including your own canvas bags, if you bring them. You pick them up right before check out. There is one price for bagging your own produce, or pay slightly less if you choose the pre-bagged produce. A few specific things I often get there are large cans of olive oil (Italian or Greek or Spanish, selection varies), dried Maine blueberries (the little ones), quark, kefir, and Greek-style yogurt, Chimay Cinq and other Belgian beers. Beer and wine is cheaper and the selection is good. 10% discount if you buy a case of any 12 bottles. Just two or three blocks from there is a tiny bakery caller "Southern Sweets," mainly cakes and pies, though they also serve sandwiches and soups at lunchtime. They cater the desserts for a number of restaurants. For example, Chocolate raspberry mousse cake, lemon curd cheesecake and tiramisu layer cake.

DWades' Mistress Tells All About Orgies, Gabrielle Union, And Getting Paid For Sex.
DWade's mistress tells all and you won't believe some of the things she says go down.
HoopsVibe's Very Quick Call: This story is so crazy it might just be true. Who could make this up?
Dwyane Wade's self-proclaimed "top mistress", Sandrina, is telling all. She recently approached the gossip site "Full Court Pumps" with information regarding her time spent with Wade. Sandrina claims she has been Wade's jumpoff in LA since before he started dating Gabrielle Union. After Gabby came into the picture Wade continued to see Sandrina and partake in orgies he would organize with her where girls received between $1,500 – $4,000 for the night.
Apparently, Wade recently found out Sandrina was sleeping with another NBA player and went ballistic on her because he had been financing her lifestyle. For example, he paid for her breast implants, clothes, apartment, etc. This argument is the reason Sandrina decided to tell all. Sandrina even goes so far as to claim Gabrielle Union partook in some of the action at the orgies. This is difficult to believe, but stranger things have happened.
Note, this is pure gossip and Sandrina has yet to backup her claims with any evidence, but if even a shred of it is true Wade's got to be sweating bullets right now.

Supreme Court Hears Violent Video Game Case Tomorrow
Soulskill posted more than 4 years ago | from the i-bet-scalia-plays-quake dept.
342SkinnyGuy writes that with the Supreme Court set to hear arguments tomorrow for California's controversial law aimed at keeping violent games away from minors, support for gamers and the games industry is coming from all corners. Writing for PCMag, Lance Ulanoff says the decision should rest in parents' hands: "If I have real concerns, it's up to me to argue it out with my son and take away the games or not buy them for him when he asks." Game developer Daniel Greenberg wants to know "how government bureaucrats are supposed to divine the artistic value that a video game has for a 17-year-old," adding that he's "disheartened and a little perplexed to see [his] art and passion lumped in with cigarettes and booze." The expectation within the legal community is that the statute should be found unconstitutional, and the Atlantic's Garrett Epps points out the irony of Gov. Schwarzenegger's involvement with the legislation.

"The invitations and all the accompanying pieces were beautiful! We received many compliments saying the invitation was very classy. We loved the autumn colors, the heavy textured paper and the beautiful simple design. Along with the invitations, we were pleased with the reply postcards and the enclosure card. The matching programs were on the same textured paper. We loved it all! I would highly recommend this design and product."
"Loved these - great quality (especially the card stock) and design. Only complaint was a tiny tiny ink spotch on some of the last few cards in our pack, but we had ordered plenty of extras and I doubt our guests would have noticed."
"We used this Program as a Mass Booklet for our spring wedding. The card-stock is heavy, and the print quality (even with a finer quality font) was stunning. The chosen fonts are ideal. The simplicity of this Program and its elegance won us over."
"These wedding programs were everything that we were looking for! The paper quality is great, and the watercolor design is classic and beautiful. Our reception is outdoors on a hillside overlooking the mountains, and this program captured our theme of natural elegance."
"I can wait to display these at our ceremony in a few weeks. They are in perfect strong condition and beautiful!!!!! Thank you!"

Importance Atopic dermatitis (AD) is thought to be a double-hit phenomenon with an unknown environmental component and a genetic abnormality likely centered on the filaggrin gene. Biologically, the presence of Staphylococcus aureus in AD was reported more than 2 decades ago, but the relationship to AD has been elusive.
Objective To explore the bacteria that produce the biofilms in the lesions of AD and the response of the innate immune system to these biofilm occlusions of the sweat ducts by specifically evaluating Toll-like receptor 2.
Design, Setting, and Participants University hospital dermatologic clinic study involving the environmental component related to the characterization, correlation, and impact of staphylococci and their biofilms in AD. We processed routine skin swabs from lesional and nonlesional skin from 40 patients with AD and performed scrapings and biopsies. We also obtained 20 samples from controls (10 inflamed skin samples and 10 normal skin samples).
Exposures Gram staining, bright-field microscopy, hematoxylin and eosin, periodic acid–Schiff, Congo red, and light microscopy.
Main Outcomes and Measures Association of staphylococcal biofilms with AD pathogenesis.
Results All AD-affected samples contained multidrug-resistant staphylococci, with S aureus (42.0%) and Staphylococcus epidermidis (20.0%) as the predominant species. All isolates were positive for extracellular polysaccharide and biofilm (85.0% strong biofilm producers and 15.0% moderately to weakly positive). Polymerase chain reaction revealed the biofilm-mediating icaD (93.0%) and aap (12.5%) genes in the isolates (some contained both). We also examined tissues for microbial identification, extracellular biomass formation, biofilm formation, and staphylococcal biofilm in skin tissues. Occlusion of sweat ducts with periodic acid–Schiff–positive and Congo red–positive material was noted on microscopic tissue examination. Toll-like receptor 2 was shown to be activated in AD lesional skin (immediately proximal to the sweat ducts), which likely led to the initiation of proteinase-activated receptor 2–mediated pruritus and MyD88-mediated spongiosis.
Conclusions and Relevance Biofilm formation by AD-associated staphylococci almost certainly plays a major role in the occlusion of sweat ducts and leads to inflammation and pruritus. We believe the environmental hit in AD relates to staphylococci and their biofilms, which occlude sweat ducts.
Eczema may present in the antecubitals.
Almost uniform and pure growth of coagulase-negative staphylococci was seen when a swab from the area affected by atopic dermatitis was cultured.
Specimen shows an occlusion that stained positively for Congo red in the acrosyringium, along with spongiosis and early vesicle formation. Thirty-six of 36 lesional specimens showed Congo red within the ducts (original magnification ×40).
A, Activation of Toll-like receptor 2 (TLR2) in the stratum corneum adjacent to occluded sweat ducts. B, Control location for TLR2 is in the basal layer of the epidermis. Both immunostained with CD 282 immunoperoxidase for TLR2 (original magnification ×40).

The Colts Lucked their way into the top pick – or should I say Sucked their way into Luck. Regardless they were able to secure what most experts think will be a franchise QB for the next decade. The Indy passing offense plummeted to 27th in the NFL under Curtis Painter (finished #1 in passing offense in 2010 with Peyton under center). At 6'4, 235 he has ideal size and played in a pro style the past two years under current 49ers head coach Jim Harbaugh. Luck could emerge as a decent BYE week filler later in the season but the bumps in the road will likely limit his production early on.
Over the next month we are going to profile the most relevant offensive skill position players that were selected in April's draft (sorry O-line). Today we present an article from Pyromaniac.com that takes a look at each of the 32 teams with some insight on all of the players that heard their names called during the draft. This piece also grades each team to determine what level of fantasy impact the rookie skill position players will have for this upcoming season.
The Giants run game ranked a league worst 32nd in the league last season (89 YPG). The defending Super Bowl champs let Brandon Jacobs walk (signed with San Francisco). Big Blue's thunder & lightning ground attack was in need of a jolt of youth which led to the selection of Virginia Tech's David Wilson with the final pick of the first round (#32 overall). The ACC Player of the Year ran for 1,709 yards in 2011 and topped 100 yards in 10 games.
The 31st overall pick in the 2012 draft has a very good chance at unseating Legarrette Blount as the week 1 starter in Tampa's backfield. Let's just hope that Blount took some offseason anger management classes as I'm sure he'll want to deliver a knockout punch to another Boise State alum after Martin steals his starting job. The Ray Rice clone has the potential to emerge as a solid RB2 especially in PPR leagues. I would expect a 70-30 split in Martin's favor to start the season with a very good chance that he sees the lion's share of the workload in the 2nd half of the season. Martin is a true 3-down RB and his dynamic playmaking ability and pass catching prowess will be a welcomed addition for a Tampa offense that averaged just 18 PPG last season.
Peyton Hillis was a top 5 fantasy RB in 2010 and Richardson has a much higher fantasy ceiling so it wouldn't be crazy to consider him as a 2nd round value despite not having taken an NFL snap. T-Rich has ideal size (5'11, 225) to be a workhorse RB and his solid pass blocking / receiving ability makes him a candidate for 20-25 carries a game. Richardson is a borderline RB1 and rock solid RB2 as the Browns boast a solid yet unspectacular offensive line.
The 2012 draft saw four WRs (Blackmon, Floyd, Wright, and Jenkins) come off the board in round 1 (one more than last season when Julio Jones, AJ Green and Jon Baldwin heard their names called on Day 1). We expect to see as many as 10 more WR go off the board by the end of tonight once rounds 2 and 3 are completed. Stephen Hill (Ga Tech) and Reuben Randle (LSU) were considered potential first rounders and will be hot commodities when round 2 kicks off . The Rams and Colts own the first two picks of the round and have glaring needs at the WR position.
The Georgia Tech triple option offense relies heavily on the ground game which limits the production of its WRs causing many draft experts to question whether Stephen Hill will have a steep learning curve at the NFL level. The junior WR hauled in just 28 catches for 820 yards and 5 TDs in 2011 but his ideal size (6'4) / speed combo (4.36 forty) is intriguing. Hill also led the country with an eye pooping 29 YPC average this past season – a true sign of his potential as an explosive WR at the next level.
Wilson was the ACC Player of the Year in his first season as a starter. The 5-foot-10, 205-pounder is one of the more explosive backs in this draft class who has shown an ability to make tacklers miss. He had a breakout season in 2011 as the Va Tech junior rushed for 1,709 yards and nine TDs on 290 carries (5.9 YPC). His impressive combine performance very well may have cemeneted his first round status and teams like Cincy, Cleveland, Tampa, Denver, and Green Bay figure to consider Wilson with an early round pick.

Liberal MP Justin Trudeau takes part in sand castle building competition on the Sparks Street Mall. Wednesday June 13,2012.
Credits: ERROL MCGIHON/QMI AGENCY)
We'll leave it there, other than to say Kinsella is a master of creating the illusion that a sow's ear is actually a silk purse.
Example? Justin Trudeau.
In his weekend column, Kinsella gave 10 reasons why Trudeau is a "winner," and why his party, the Liberal Party of Canada, should choose such a vacuous entity to lead them out of the wilderness now that Bob Rae has realized he is no Moses.
It was quite the spin job.
We have been long believers that you cannot con a con, but you can con the public.
Who, for example, would have predicted Ontario Premier Dalton McGuinty -- Premier Dad or, better yet, Deadbeat Daddy Dalton -- would be re-elected with a strong minority after his years playing Pinocchio with politics, after turning Ontario into a have-not province, and after so many scandals (eHealth, the air ambulance fiasco), as well as his disastrous embracing of the unsustainable expense of ineffective solar and wind power?
Certainly no right-thinking voter. Yet it happened.
And what about Alberta giving a majority to Premier Alison Redford, more socialist than progressive, when every pundit predicted the Wildrose Party of Danielle Smith would end the Progressive Conservatives' four decades in power.
Well, what happened there was the spinning of the fear factor. The Tory spin doctors went to work and, ripping pages from Warren Kinsella's how-to manual, made Smith's party out to be no better than the early Reformers, riddled with bigots and rednecks, while spit-polishing Redford's image to a shine.
Despite Kinsella's best efforts, our opinion of Justin Trudeau remains this: He's cute, surprisingly tough in the ring but doesn't have the intellectual heft of his old man who, in our book, was the most destructive prime minister of the 20th century.
Kinsella says Trudeau has "more charisma than the royal family and Lady Gaga combined." Kinsella lost us long before typing that ridiculous line, of course, but that's how he conjures up the silk purse.
Be wise. Listen to us instead, and treat Kinsella's ode to Justin as comic relief.
It's one reason we keep him around.

Friday will be Chandler Police Chief Sherry Kiyler's last day on the job. She is retiring after over nine years as chief. Before leading the Chandler department, Kiyler served 31-years with the Phoenix police department where her career took her from the streets to investigating organized crime to leading the department's homicide unit and eventually commanding the Violent Crimes Bureau.
Kiyler learned the business of policing from the bottom up and was a cop first who earned her way into leadership. She was a cop's cop and a police chief's police chief. There aren't many of those around in today's world of policing where careerism, political connections, a great line of bull and looking good in a uniform have increasingly become the qualifiers to lead a police force.
For the last twenty years, a chief who proved their worth on the streets before promotions into leadership has led the Chandler police department. Kiyler and her predecessor, Bobby Joe Harris, a former Vietnam combat Marine and double tough beat cop, could never be accused of getting ahead because they brown nosed the right people.
Both were leaders who knew firsthand what it was like to do the dangerous job of policing from real life experience and not from behind a desk memorizing policies and procedures and trendy policing textbooks.
The line will be long for those who want to fill Kiyler's shoes. It'll be a great job for the right person.
During Kiyler's tenure crime has dropped to record lows. Costs have been cut and the Chandler department continues to deliver high quality police services. Community and city hall support, along with respect and trust for the police department, are reflections of good work, a quality workforce – both civilian and sworn – and great leadership.
Even with its level of 21st Century policing sophistication that has evolved over the last decade – with modern technology and significant involvement in the East Valley Fusion Center – Chandler PD is recognized as department that knows how to take care of business when it comes to taking on serious criminal activity, even if it means risk and danger. The bad guys know what happens when they cross Chandler's thin blue line.
Chandler's officers wouldn't be able to deliver this high quality kind "take the war to the bad guys" kind of policing without leadership that is confident and experienced. Chandler will need the same kind of bold and first class leadership if they want to continue making Chandler a great place to live, work, do business and raise a family.
Not only will the new chief fill an important leadership position in Chandler, they will fill an important position in regional public safety. I say regional because Kiyler has not only been a driving force in making Chandler safer, her efforts have made the East Valley safer with her strong and consistent leadership in the East Valley Police Chiefs Association and the East Valley Fusion Center.
As the East Valley moves toward a greater regional approach to sharing and working together for the common good, Chandler needs to remember its new police chief will serve all of us. Just as Chandler has become a regional and statewide economic power, it has also evolved into policing powerhouse during the last decade.
There are plenty of police command officers with great resumes looking for chief's jobs, but many of them know little to nothing about being a cop. Chandler doesn't need one of them.
Chandler needs to find someone who knows the business of policing and putting criminals in jail from the bottom up and who leads from the front and not from the safety of a big office at headquarters.
Hopefully Chandler will stick with their winning ways when it comes to picking Kiyler's replacement and they'll look long and hard and make sure they hire someone who is worthy of following Kiyler as the leader of Chandler's finest.
Retired Mesa master police officer Bill Richardson lives in the East Valley and can be reached at firstname.lastname@example.com.

MEDFORD, Ore. – Avion Maloney looks on as a small group of volunteers digs through his back yard. When the little saplings bear fruit and vegetables, they'll be hauled away.
"We're going to give them back to people who need food – veterans, college students, people who are less fortunate," said Maloney.
The garden is being planted, cared for, and completely paid for by P. Annie's Secret Garden. The non-profit, only in its first planting season, relies on small back yards like Avion's.
It's part of what they call paying it forward.
"Those that are more fortunate, I think it's really important that we reach out and help those that are less fortunate," said the organization's founder, Brooke Sanders.
The idea of lending your land to the cause is Sanders' brainchild. As a member of a military family, she says it was the best thing she could think of to help veterans who have been left behind.
Right now the organization has two gardens, producing enough food to feed 100-300 people. Everything from the seeds themselves, to the water, to the labor, is being paid for by Sanders' savings.
Getting more people to lend land, and the money to manage it, will be the next step.
"It is a tall task. This is what this is about, this is a call out to the community to come forth and help us," said Sanders.
The only direct benefit, aside from the free landscaping, is a small fruit tree left behind. But Maloney, who often comes out to water the garden on his own time, says the cause alone is enough reward.
"It's really a good feeling when you get to give back to people who are less fortunate."
The organization is still awaiting their 503(c) status. They also say they're in talks with multiple land owners in the area to expand their gardens.
For more information on how to help or how to benefit visit the organization's Facebook page.

I am hoping someone here can help me out. I am looking for a clay (or clay-like) product that does not require a kiln, and can preferably just air dry. Specifically, I want to use a silicone mold, fill it with clay (so, obviously, anything that can be made liquid would be ideal), let the clay harden, and then remove it from the mold. It looked like sculptamold would be the idea solution to my situation, as it claims to be as sturdy as clay, but far more lightweight. However, upon googling for images of things made with sculptamold,I discovered it gave a very rough, paper-mache like finish. This is definitely NOT what I want. I want something that can mimic the smooth clay surface of my original item. Any suggestions? TIA for the any help! |

Bridging Program in Australia - page 63
Hi. I am new here. I don't know exactly where to go. I am a registered nurse here in the Philippines and I am interested in studying in Australia for a bridging course that will help me become a... Read More
0Feb 12, '13 by belle_v2gQuote from cyndi0116Try other schools instead of waiting for just one, esp con because they really have lots of applicants. Aleast youve got options. It is much easier to settle an accommodation rather than brag for an extension of eligibility.Hi! I'm new here and as i read the thread, i really find the site useful. So may i just ask some advice. I had my loe from ahpra last dec 2012 and just today, i've passed my req'ts to con/acn. My aunt there in nsw submitted my papers and she was informed that may intake was already full. I'm just wondering if i need to consider other schools because it seems that con has loads of applicants for the bridging program. I really don't want to consider other school because my relatives are in nsw but if i really need to then i have to start submitting req'ts on other schools. What is the best thing to do? Thanks in advance!

0Feb 13, '13 by frgdgrlQuote from rsa_0513hi im also for july intake at perth.I applied last November. You can wait or follow up your application.
how did u pay your enrollment fee? i tried paying online on their website but it requires the invoice number.
about the insurance? which insurance company did u use? because ihna doesnt cover the health insurance.
about the visa, i understand they prefer the business 456 visa which is only for 3months. is it enough for the whole bridging program? because the program itself is 3months and we still need to process our registration after the program.. is it true that u need to leave aussie after 3 months when issued this kind of visa? is it ok to apply for another type of visa like the student visa? so ill have enough time to process my registration and find a hospital that will sponsor me?
hope someone answer my queries. Thanks! -
0Feb 13, '13 by frgdgrlQuote from JulairoseThey we're the one who assigned me there.. I actually prefer melbourne.. Did u pay the enrollment fee already? How are u planning to pay it? I tried their pay online link but i dont have the invoice number yet.. Do u have it already?I just got my offer letter today. Did u specify in your application that you want to take the course in Perth or they were the one who assigned you there? thanks

I've been growing an anne raspberry and a regular red rasberry plant on a t-bar trellis for 3 growing seasons now. The plants are about 5 ft from each other, so both are in similar soil and lighting conditions. The red raspberry is thriving. This has been the best year for it. More canes have shot up than I can count, and the canes are loaded with fruit that should be ripe in a few weeks. The Anne on the other hand is not doing so well. There are only about 2 or 3 canes, and they are rather droopy and sad looking. The canes are already producing ripe fruit, but there isn't much there. Some of the leaves are yellowing a bit as well. There is a medium sized catalpa tree to the east of the plants, and there is a large shed to the west of them, so the plants are getting noon-day and some afternoon sun, and shade the rest of the time. I have also noticed that something has been chewing a few leaves from both plants. Is it unsafe to apply pesticides while the fruit is developing? I'd really like to know why the anne is having trouble and what I should do about the pests? |

I hate to be a comment Nazi, but in recent months, it's become very hard to have a decent conversation on this blog.
So I'm going to outline some rules for comments:
1. Comments must be pertinent to the post in question. If you have a new idea for me to look at, please use the contact form. If you have unfinished business from a previous post and still want to carry on the conversation, please comment on that post and not another one.
2. Any comments that consist of nothing but moral platitudes will be deleted. Any comments that include a sermon about ethics without logic or reason behind it will be deleted. Should I leave one of these comments up, and someone tears it apart using logic and reason, you have already lost the argument. Please don't come back to comments that refute one's previous moralizing comment with more moralizing. You've already decided you don't want to have a conversation based upon facts, and to keep coming back with the same moralizing rhetoric does nothing but piss every one else off. No one wants to listen to you spout moral platitudes, or have you impugn everyone else who tries to explain the logic and reason for taking a particular stance. It's a very bad debate tactic, and it is quite counter productive. If a commentator persists in engaging in this sort of debate, I will warn you about possible banning. You get two warnings. On the third, you are banned.
3. Animal rights views will be tolerated, but if the commentator wishes to engage in the sort of debate that is described in number 2 with an animal rights issue, the comments will be deleted. If one persists in the exact same behavior with animal rights issues, one will be banned after being warned twice. I do not support animal rights, nor do most people who read this blog. We do not appreciate being lectured about what horrible monsters we are just because we don't buy into the various animal rights canards.
4. I reserve the right to delete any comment for any reason. However, I will delete and will not approve any comments that attack another person's ethnicity, national origin, race, gender, or sexual orientation.
5. All creationists are considered either liars or horribly misinformed. If you wish to leave creationist comments on this blog, you will be ridiculed. I have no time to indulge your dishonesty or ignorance.
6. If you are here to troll and/or waste my time, I will ban your ass. I don't have to put up with your crap. If you want to complain about me, start your own blog. If you have your own blog and want to complain about me, I am not going let your site get traffic from the link you provide in the comments. I will remove your link, and I may make some edits to the comment form to make you look like the ass that you really are. If you are banned right now, the chances are high that you engaged in this sort of behavior, and I responded by banning you.
7. I may ban you because I deem your intelligence and/or reading comprehension so limited that you probably shouldn't be commenting on a grown-up's blog.
8. Quote-mining me on my own blog is an offense that will result in instant banning.
9. If you say something that is obviously false– as in science disproved it a long time ago–and you insist on using it as a way to tear me down, you are wasting your time.
10. If I think your comment will lead nowhere, I will delete it. I don't have time to deal with comments that lead to circular discussions and continuously moving goalposts.
I reserve the right not to publish comments, even my reasoning for not doing so is that I simply don't like your tone.

Justin Bieber dominated the AMA 2012 and had Nicki Minaj for company, literally and metaphorically. The two performed together and Nicki won the hiphop artist of the year award beating Tyga and Drake.
Justin, on his part, blew the competition away winning the Artist of the Year at the American Music Awards on Sunday night. His competitors for the award included Rihanna and Katy Perry. And then let off some steam during his acceptance speech for Favorite Pop/Rock Male Artist when he said "This is for all the haters who thought that maybe I was just here for one or two years. I feel like I'm going to be here for a very long time."

Creative Ideas That Inspire
Buzz: Students dance to video games and hang from the ceiling in these unique offerings.
Joann Melgar, founder of Exceptional Body Pilates Studio in Abingdon, Virginia, created Pilates Pump for her more "hyper" students. "They just can't persuade themselves that they don't have to work themselves into a dither to get fit," says Melgar, adding that her class is for "those who want their Pilates 'sweatier' and more breathless." The interval class features short cardio segments and uses weighted balls, resistance bands, BOSU® Balance Trainers or "just plain speed with classical Pilates exercise segments." "We adhere to basic Pilates principles and spend over half the class in traditional mat exercises, but some clients absolutely love the mix and feel better about the workout at the end," says Melgar.
R-KAIDE® is a "rhythmic, kinesthetic, arcade-inspired dance and exercise group fitness program created by IDEA members Fred Hoffman, MEd, and Biray Alsac, MS. According to the official website, the class blends entertainment technology with exercise physiology and is inspired by popular dance-based video games. The format includes dance pads for each participant, a big screen and "groovy music."
Core Pilates Studio in St. Paul, Minnesota, offers Aerialates to its members. The class is "dynamic exercise that combines the aerial arts with Pilates to challenge the body and spirit."
Steve Nave of Competitive Performance Strategies in San Diego uses a unique piece of equipment to create a fun group atmosphere in the Bulgarian Bag/Speed Workout. The focus of this workout is on gaining strength and endurance by primarily utilizing the Bulgarian Training Bag, a half-moon-shaped leather bag made for wrestlers and "designed to allow for both upper and lower body training while emphasizing grip strength at all times."
IDEA members Chuck and Shelly Gonzales, co-owners of Pacific Personal Training & CrossFit Hillsboro in Hillsboro, Oregon, take their CrossFit affiliation to another level. The classes are based on CrossFit's model of "broad, general inclusive fitness," and use "constantly varied, functional exercises executed at high intensity to reach that goal." "We are continually adding new classes to the schedule," says Chuck Gonzales. "We integrate various modalities found in personal training into some of the workouts. For example, if a workout calls for 45 pull-ups, we might have participants do TRX pulls instead. If a workout calls for body weight dead lifts for 52 repetitions, we might suggest a PVC pipe overhead squat for the same reps instead."
Aruna Karen Andes, co-owner of WorldDance Fitness in San Anselmo, California, teaches Yoga Sling Fitness using OmGyms that hang from the ceiling. The class combines yoga and strength and cardiovascular training and includes both low and—if students are ready—high- flying stretches and inversions. "The slings let students stretch farther and do pull-ups and push-ups in different dimensions, providing significant core strength and delicious back relief," Andes says.

When I first heard of a ramen burger, the only thing I could think was "How come I was never that creative back in my college days with my booze-fueled 2am ramen noodle feasts?" I mean, I discovered that ramen made one crazy-good mac n' cheese. Oh and if I was feeling healthy, I threw in some frozen veggies, but that's about as far as my creative culinary juices took me. Clearly, someone else was a lot more clever after a couple vodka-tonics than I ever was. I mean the ramen burger?! Consider my mind blown. By the burger, and also the fact that some culinary wizard has grown adults running back to their college staple. Obviously, if you had told me in college that I would be eating ramen AFTER college, I would have said you were drunk (which you very well could have been). And yet here I am, eating crazy culinary ramen concoctions, and reminiscing about a time when I could survive off cheap food and little sleep. Now I need things like ramen burgers and a deep 3 month hibernation to even half-way function. Such is life…
Ramen Burger
Makes 2
1 package of ramen noodles (I use the chicken flavor; do not break up the noodles)
1 egg
1/2 pound ground turkey or beef
3 tablespoons of teriyaki sauce (soy sauce would work fine too)
2 slices of cheddar cheese
1/2 cup of ketchup
2 tablespoons of sriracha (more or less depending on how spicy you like it)
Extras: Arugula, Fried Egg, Sauteed Onions, Wilted Bok Choy, Bacon, Avocado (my favorite combo is the arugula and fried egg)
Start by making the ramen bun. Cook the ramen noodles in boiling water just until tender (about 3 minutes). Drain the noodles and then, using a fork, or your hands, mix the noodles with the egg and about 1/3 of the packet of ramen seasoning. Divide the noodles between two ramekins (or any other round container that is similar to bun size). Cover each ramekin with plastic wrap and then firmly press everything in place with another ramekin or heavy object on top. Refrigerate for 20 minutes.
Meanwhile, prepare your sriracha ketcup (mix the sriracha and ketchup together) and your toppings (i.e. fry the onions or the eggs). Next, combine the ground meat with the teriyaki sauce as well as 1/3 of the ramen seasoning packet. Set aside.
Once your "buns" are set, heat a greased pan over medium heat. Gently loosen and flip the ramen buns into the pan. Cook for about 3-5 minutes per side, or until they are golden brown and crispy. Set the buns aside. Cook the burger patties and finish them off by melting the cheese on top.
To assemble the ramen burger, first lay out your bun. Next add in whichever extra toppings you choose. Top that off with the burger patty and finish it with a generous drizzle of sriracha ketchup. Proceed to stuff your face.
*Please note you can make this with two ramen buns by obviously using two packages of ramen noodles, 2 eggs, and 4 ramekins. However, Mr. RC and I decided having two ramen buns was just too much ramen so we now make ours as open-faced burgers instead.

We should not forget that the wildlife garden feeds US, too!
A friend just presented me with an absolutely wonderful hen-of-the-woods mushroom, and I haven't a clue how to fix it other than the usual way I do my morels, which btw is the only wild mushroom I trust myself to properly ID. I was sure there were some of you here who could share some of your favorite recipes with me!
got any suggestions?? |
Follow-Up Postings:
Lucky you! If you google using 'pan roasted hen-of-the-woods mushroom' (or something like that) you'll come up with zillions of good suggestions. I'll attach one site which explains a bit how to clean and store it, besides some cooking ideas. I'd be sorely tempted to cook it with some savory herbs (like fresh thyme and rosemary), butter, and then add some wild rice. What a perfect side for chicken or pork! |

Top 10 Coolest Things About TNU
As a college student, I'm dependent on "To Do Lists." After making them every morning to get through my days in one piece, I have become sort of a pro. I decided to share my talent with all of you. Here's my list of the Top Ten Coolest Things About Trevecca:
10. Fall time at Trevecca is beautiful—so pretty that I almost don't mind waking up for class because I get to look at all the colorful trees and flowers on my way. It's a peaceful, little campus tucked away in a big city. Perfect.
9. I never got to pet a squirrel until I came to Trevecca. They are super friendly here.
8. From 7 am- 7 pm Mondays through Fridays there is unlimited cereal, diet mountain dew, and a sub sandwich station in the Cafeteria. Cereal is high up there on my list of favorite foods and I would do almost anything for a diet mountain dew… So, good work TNU!
7. I can see the Nashville Skyline from my window. Enough said.
6. Speaking of the Nashville Skyline, WE ARE IN NASHVILLE! Music City, USA. I ran into Hunter Hayes once and my friend goes to church with Carrie Underwood. So much talent in one town! My only complaints are that I don't have enough time or money to see all of the concerts that I want to.
5. Dorm life is a one-of-a-kind experience. Imagine having 30 closets to choose from; there's always something to wear and never a lack of slumber parties.
4. Awesome events ALL. THE. TIME! Paint-a-paloooza is this Friday, for example, but we also have intramural sports, concerts, and the Boone-a-roo craft fair to look forward to this year!
3. Professors at Trevecca are AWESOME. They are genuinely concerned about each of their students and take an interest in them beyond just the academic "stuff." I have professors who ask me about my dad's football team or little sister. They know my stresses and goals. It's an awesome feeling to have the support of adults while I'm so far from home.
2. I guess this goes along with activities, but there are so many clubs and cool ways to get involved here. I'm loving being a RA this year, but some of my friends have found their niches being Peer Mentors, members of TWIOG, or playing TIA sports. Never a lack of options!
1. Everyone will probably say this a million times, but Trevecca is more than a school. It's a family, a Christian community. The summer before my freshman year I was terrified about being so far away from my family, but my fears were erased almost immediately. At Trevecca I found a home away from home and a second family that I will be forever thankful for. The people at Trevecca can't be beat! They win!
Woooo-hoooo! I hope this gives you a better idea of life on the Hill! Or, feel free to add your own Trevecca favorites As you can tell, it's 12:50 AM… Time for me to get some shut eye.
