Oursler's Sculpture is Macomb Public Art
From University Relations:
MACOMB, IL – When Western Illinois University Assistant Professor Duke Oursler was commissioned to create a sculpture for green space on Macomb's West Jackson Street, he looked to the "character of the community" for inspiration.The result of Oursler's work is the new sculpture in the Rotary Clubs' green space, a tribute to Macomb's heritage as a train community and to hard work.
"Being new to Macomb, everyone talks about the train and Macomb's history as a railroad town," Oursler said. "The railroad itself is a conduit to America; it's a way we stay connected. I wanted to develop a concept for the sculpture so the railroad was recognizable."
The main motivation for the piece came from photographs Oursler saw of an American Class steam engine.
"It just seemed to fit Macomb really well," he said. "It was about the heart of America and a hard working group of people."

Dan Katula and Ryan Schabach (photo by Mark Frohna)
It's an odd title, Things Being What They Are, which opened this weekend at the Milwaukee Chamber Theatre. But it makes sense if you think about it. There's a touch of pragmatic existentialism about Wendy MacLeod's 2003 play, rendered in a folksy patter. If the line is spoken in the play, I don't recall it. But it's certainly reflects the mood of MacLeod's characters, Jack and Billm as they make their final exit, capping off the eventful week of their lives that we've just been witness to.
These "things" that "are" have to do, at first, with the basic stuff of being an American man—wives and ex-wives, kids, bosses, lawn mowers, beer. Bill (Ryan Schabach) has just moved in next door to Jack (Dan Katula), who shows up to say howdy, compare twin condos, and mooch a brewski or two. But it's a long "howdy" that speaks to something deeper and sadder than mere neighborliness, and Katula is terrific at showing the quiet desperation that peeks out from behind the veneer of "good buddy" affability. He is six-months divorced, after all, and his insistent friendliness helps Bill open up in spite of his stricter sense of propriety.
MCT is marketing this production as a "bromance" comedy, but I'd say it's more an anti-"bromance" than anything. As a woman writing about the bonding rituals of two men, MacLeod is attuned to the rites of burgeoning male friendships, but also wants us to see beyond the tropes and possibilities of the latest Seth Rogan comedy. Jack and Bill drink Budweiser from bottles, complain about their jobs, and trade a few funny stories. On the surface, they are a 21st-century Oscar and Felix—one setting his drink on the coffee table, the other demurely moving it onto a coaster. But MacLeod pushes them into a deeper relationship, and they respond with uneasiness, and also with insight and—in their own way—tenderness.
For the uneasiness, pay close attention to the performance of Schabach. As a man who has built his life around his marriage and wife, he recoils from the easy-going friendliness of a stranger like Jack, whose warm bath of camaraderie seems to come from another planet. Outside of his relationship to the unseen Adele, he is alone. And the prospect of losing her looms like a kind of existential emptiness he can't fathom filling.
Which is why Jack is the ideal bull in his china shop. His baseline loneliness drives him to push the envelope of Bill's sense of propriety. But he's exactly the potential friend that Bill needs, the kind who lives from the gut. Director Michael Cotey gets inside the dynamic with his fine staging, which goes far beyond Bill's Felix Unger obsession for order. Steve Barnes' set seems vast for a two-person play, particularly in Act One, when there's no furniture in sight, but it allows Cotey to map the characters' evolving friendship. Katula makes the space his own from the moment he enters. When he has something important to say, he gets close—right in Bill's face—and Schabach reacts like a cornered animal.
But it doesn't last. You might call Things Being What They Are a two-hour seduction of friendship. It zigs and zags through its everyday emotional terrain; it ends in catharsis and epiphany. And it ends, finally, as it should for guys like Bill and Jack, with a night of pizza and beer.

STEM Leaders at St George's RC High School
The Greater Manchester STEM team at the Museum of Science and Industry (MOSI) have been working with St. George's RC High School, Worsley, to encourage the STEM leaders of the future.
As part of collaboration between the English and Technology departments it was arranged for two engineers from Mettler-Toledo Safeline Ltd. to be interviewed by a class of year 9 pupils. The reports of these interviews were then entered into a National Competition (Leaders Awards) to encourage pupils to look at engineering for a career.
The class were very successful and two of the pupils won national awards: Francisca Amaral won the IMechE (Institution of Mechanical Engineers) Special Award for 2012. Josh Warburton won the Secondary Leaders Award for Mathematics.
The pupils were presented with their Leaders Awards in a special assembly at school. The two engineers Adam Ardron and Lee Smith together with Christine James (Primary Engineer), Dr David Ball (Regional Chairman for IMechE North West) and Ian Fielding (Secretary for IMechE North West) were all present to give their support and present the awards.
Mr Westcott, Head of Technology, said:
"This was an excellent opportunity for our pupils to meet Engineers and during the interview and reporting process were able to get a real insight into the work done by these people. Hopefully some of them will consider a career in this sector in the future."
Josh Warburton said:
"I enjoyed the experience of meeting someone for the first time and getting to know them. The task that we were set was interesting and the essay afterwards wasn't very difficult to write. The information I gathered was quite easy to convey and changing it into my own words was an easy feat. Overall, I think that the task was fun, interesting and worthwhile and I definitely would like to try it again"
Francisca Amaral said:
"I was anxious at first, when I had to do the interview, but I wasn't nervous at all when it came to it. Then, when I had to write up the interview to an essay, it was much easier than I first thought! The experience, overall, was worthwhile and fulfilling, and interesting to meet such accomplished people in the engineering world."

Cheerios are such a staple in our house! I can't remember when we haven't had them in our cabinet. I guess we are creatures of habits My daughter LOVES to have them with honey.
So when I learned there was a new addition to the Cheerios family and it included the word "chocolate" I was intrigued to say the least. I was even more excited to see that they were made with real cocoa! Chocolate Cheerios is low in fat, has only 100 calories per serving, contains at least 8 grams of whole grain per serving (at least 48 grams recommended daily) and is a good source of calcium and vitamin D.
There are even several recipes on their website using Chocolate Cheerios. One that really caught my eye was the Choolate Cheerios Marshmallow Hearts.
Chocolate Cheerios® Marshmallow Hearts

Start to Finish: 1 Hour 45 Minutes
- 1 cup Gold Medal® all-purpose flour

The perfect trip: The Canadian Rockies
Pockets of purple fireweed and yellow glacier lilies spill across the lake-studded plateau, causing hikers to stop regularly to scan the views. Golden eagles swirl overhead, suddenly diving at tiny ground squirrels that are hiding in the grass. All around, grey-blue mountain peaks poke up through the clouds, surveying their surroundings like curious giants. Banff became Canada's first national park in 1885, and it's not hard to see why.
Colours that seem impossible in nature entice many to hit the trails to Banff's ethereal lakes. The iridescent, emeraldgreen Lake Louise is best viewed from the heights of the challenging Lake Agnes trail - from this vantage point it glows like a neon paint slick among the trees. Moraine Lake, a short drive away, is even more striking. Shadowed by peaks resembling the man-made towers of ancient civilisations, it has a mesmerising clearblue brilliance. (The surreal colours of the lakes are triggered by sunlight reflecting off glacial minerals suspended in the water.)
'Fall is always my favourite time of year to walk here,' says Tamara. 'People come for the changing leaves in the trees and you can still see some great alpine flora, but the wildlife-watching - especially during rutting - is much more dramatic. The colours and views are always changing, depending on the season.'

Where to eat
The Bison Restaurant, a slick joint in Banff town, would be at home in a big city. Its walls are lined with artwork and a tempting menu combines top-grade Alberta beef dishes with creative seasonal salmon and venison mains. Book during peak season, and try to get a table on the upstairs patio for mountain views (mains from £13; thebison.ca).
Where to stay
In a tranquil setting on Tunnel Mountain at the edge of Banff, the Hidden Ridge Resort is made up of self-contained apartments each have their own patio, log fireplace and kitchen. A grocery shop and restaurants are a short walk away. While there's a free shuttle into town, most guests prefer to spend time in the large outdoor hot pool area (from £120; bestofbanff.com).
Calgary: Best for a night out
Fast-footed dudes in white Stetsons whirl their partners around the dance floor. Across the neon-lit room, wild hollers encourage a one-armed rider on a bucking mechanical bull. And near a photo display of legends past, champion rodeo rider Scott Schiffner chats with fellow regulars. It's Friday night at Ranchman's, Calgary's top introduction to Western good times.
'This is the best bar in Canada for cowboys,' says Scott. 'They let us get away with a lot here, that's for sure.' Wildly popular every summer during the Calgary Stampede - an annual rodeo and festival celebrating all things Western - Ranchman's has been luring cowboy-curious out-oftowners for years. Initially they watch shyly from corner tables, but they're up and linedancing with the locals after a beer or three.
While the region's cowboys may have chowed down on beans and grits back in the day, the city's dining scene has advanced in recent years.'We've moved beyond the typical Alberta steakhouse,' says Jean François Beeroo, co-owner of downtown's new Char Cut, a restaurant with a contemporary lounge-club feel. The joint beckons meat-lovers with homemade charcuterie, fire-roasted prime rib and rotisserie chicken. Added to this is a secret dish that seems to satisfy both modern and old-school cowboys. 'At around 10pm on most Fridays and Saturdays, we put up a sign around the back of the restaurant advertising our $5 gourmet alley burgers,' says Jean François. Among the selection are burgers made with pork and lamb, and dressed with cheese curds and egg. 'We never know how many we're going to have ready, but the word quickly spreads,' adds Jean François. 'There's a queue within minutes and they always sell out.'

Pontiac Torrent Noises
meam Posts: 1I love my 2007 Torrent, 9000 miles on it so far. I have had it in the shop 5 yes 5 times to find the reason for the brake squeaking, intermittent of course, that occurs when I am going downhill or backing out of the garage. They repaced the brake pads,turned the rot :confuse: ors etc, still the same. Cold weather makes it worse. The dealer suggestion was to wash the truck weekly, as I live on a gravel road, since they couldn't figure anything else out! Any thoughts?
gabriel2608 Posts: 7Hi I have a 2007 Torrent, 3 or 4 weeks ago it started with a noise in the steering wheel column, exactly below the steering wheel, I thought that was the rack, but yesterday I went with the dealer, and the service manager told me that the noise is normal, for the system of electronically assisted direction, in some cases is louder than mine, and is normal in Torrent, G5 and G6, I´m going to call to the GM plant in Mexico to find out if that it´s true, because the service manager told me that the GM plant is going to make a new kind of steering column that is going to avoid that kind of noises, have you heard something about it, if so I´d apreciate you comments and oppinions.
Greetings from Colima, Mexico
PS. The warranty is valid to November 2008, and it´s 12500 miles. -

samiaml Posts: 10Ok so i have a 06 torrent and about 5 mos ago i had it in for the heater, it just stopped working. They fixed it but a few days later it was leaking coolant so i took it back.... they fixed it. A few days pasted and it started leaking again.. So i took it back to the dealer and they put on a different clamp and it hasnt leaked since. Well pretty much ever since my truck makes a gushing sound when i accelerate, kinda like if u blow in a straw while it in water. It only does it when i stop and then accelerate... once im past like 5 miles per hr it stops. Also since i got it back from the dealer it sputters on start up, only till it warms up maybe like a min or so but only when its been sittin awhile, like overnight. Could these 2 problems be linked? The truck is no longer under warranty so i cant take it back to the dealer. Any ideas??? If so how can i fix it??? Ive been told maybe theres air in the coolant system???
borst Posts: 1I have an '06 Torrent and also have the sound of running water noise. Mine is coming from under the dash right in front of the driver. When I stop at a light it is a sound like a babbling brook. When I accelerate is is the sound of a rushing river. I've been told it is probably related to the AC compressor though I've never had AC problems. Perhaps it is not draining correctly?
The other problem of rough starts is also familiar and may be a major one. Check the level of your engine coolant. Is the exhaust white smoke when you first start up. Mine has been leaking coolant into cylinder #1. May be a leaky intake manifold or worse yet a head gasket. -
courtney4 Posts: 1so i have a 06 torrent same issues as u it was my head gasket ask shop to do a pressure test on your car however got out of shop and still here gushing sound took back they pressure test everything was good no coolant leaks but they said air was getting into the system some how and need to look into why they don;t get it when i first brought in they understood why gushing sound because of the head gasket there was air in my line now that it is fixed they don't no why they think i may have a clog in the heater core or a hole in the heater core still trying to figure it out but my car did the same ruff idle when first starting adding coolant and the gushing sound
\also had white smoke from exaust and was leaking into cylinder 1 like someone else was stating -

Stephen Baxter's new series is full of page-turning action, intriguing mystery and awe-inspiring scientific speculation. Full of evocative historical detail and characters who jump of the page this is history lived by people who's future is not yet locked as our past. Navigator is the third of the series, and delves deep into the discovery of America. And the roots for this lie deep in the history of Spain and the middle east. Navigator unfurls over four centuries as the wars of conquest and opression between Christian and Moor sweep back and fourth and a prophecy is passed down through the ages. But as well as the prophecy come designs for terrifying advanced machines of war. As Christian and Moor fight over who will control the machines the finest minds of the times including Francis Bacon struggle to build them.

It casts a new light on the crusades and the real reasons behind the discovery of America.

Printing FAQs
1. How do I measure my car to be wrapped?
There's no need to measure your car. All we need is the make and model number of your vehicle and we can acquire a scale version of your automobile.
2. Do you have a price list for all your products?
Because we will print any custom size you desire, we don't have a compiled list of prices. However all of our products online give you instant price quotes.
3. Do you offer volume discounts?
Yes, our online pricing will automatically calculate a discount based on volume printing.
4. What printing process do you use?
We print using CMYK, Full Color Offset Printing
5. My image is less than 300 dpi resolution, can it still be printed?
Your image can still be printed at less than 300dpi, however the print quality will be sacrificed significantly. We print all jobs using 200Line Screen, which means you can utilize up to 400dpi for any print job. We recommend at least 300dpi to obtain the best print quality.
6. What is CMYK printing?
CMYK are the four colors that make up all other colors in the world. They are short for Cyan, Magenta, Yellow and Black
7. What are your specifications for custom artwork?
Our file preference is a properly submitted PDF, however we will accept a JPEG, or TIFF file as well, so long as they are flattened at a minimum of 300dpi.
8. I need something changed, corrected, added, or taken off my artwork. Can you do this for me?
We cannot make any alterations to your artwork, whatsoever, unless you'd like it to become a design job. We offer award-winning graphic design at very competitive prices and are always happy to take the burden off a customer who's not a professional designer. Once a job becomes a "design job" it must be viewed and approved by the customer before it is sent to press.
9. What graphic design awards have you won?

All Hotcards.com offices have different turnaround times for projects printed. If you are not near a hotcards.com office, contact our headquarters in Cleveland, Ohio at 216.241.4040.
14. Are the colors I see on my screen going to be what I see when it's printed?
The color that you see on a computer monitor or television screen is called additive color and has a different set of properties from subtractive color, which is the kind of color that applies to your Hotcards.com printed jobs.
Additive color emanates directly from a light source. Subtractive color comes from light that is reflected off of an object from a light source.
Because additive color comes to our eyes directly (unless it is filtered), it is purer color and is able to represent a broader range of the spectrum than subtractive color. For this reason, even under the best conditions it is very rare that your monitor, which is RGB (additive), and offset printing, which is CMYK (subtractive), will ever match.
So, the short answer is no. However, we assure you that our highly experienced team and state-of-the-art equipment will produce your job in the best quality possible.

Jack LaLanne's family is sharing precious memories of the man known as the "Godfather of Fitness." He died Sunday at his home in Morro Bay from respiratory failure linked to pneumonia . He was 96.
For most people, living to be 96 is quite the accomplishment, but Jack Lalanne had set his sights a bit higher. He often said, "I cannot die. It would ruin my image."
"He said I want to live to be 150 and I want you to stick around and find out," said Jack's wife Elaine LaLanne.
Jack spent two hours working out every morning at his home gym, so it was the perfect place for his family to share their thoughts.
"He always used to sing to me 'If you were the only girl in the world,' and so just before he passed away, I said, 'If you were the only boy in the world, and I was the only girl,'" Elaine said.
She partnered with Jack in both business and life.
"We were pals. We were buddies. We were lovers. We were husband and wife," Elaine said.
During 51 years of marriage, he never failed to make her laugh.
"I've heard him talk, I don't know how many times, but there was always something that would crack me up," Elaine said.
Jack and Elaine practiced and preached the importance of healthy living. He said "If man made it, don't eat it," a lesson his kids knew well.
"Dad would make me a sandwich with whole wheat bread and turkey. No lube, No mayo, No nothing. 'Oh, dad's making my lunch today.' Damn!" said Jack's son Jon LaLanne.
After visiting a friend, the LaLannes fell in love with Morro Bay, the weather, and the people.
"Everybody would say, 'Hi Jack or Hi Elaine,' Elaine said. "Everyday, he went down to the rock and looked at the sunset or the surfers."
As Jack LaLanne leaves behind a legacy, his family smiles and says he's on to bigger and better things.
"He's God's personal trainer," said Jack's son Dan LaLanne.
Jack and Elaine LaLanne were also part of our KSBY family. At one point, they had their own segment on our newscast called "Living Longer."
The family asks that everyone do an extra hour of exercise in their day in his memory.

The Message (MSG) | New International Version (NIV) |
1 Hallelujah! It's a good thing to sing praise to our God; praise is beautiful, praise is fitting. | 1 Praise the LORD. How good it is to sing praises to our God, how pleasant and fitting to praise him! |
2 God's the one who rebuilds Jerusalem, who regathers Israel's scattered exiles. | 2 The LORD builds up Jerusalem; he gathers the exiles of Israel. |
3 He heals the heartbroken and bandages their wounds. | 3 He heals the brokenhearted and binds up their wounds. |
4 He counts the stars and assigns each a name. | 4 He determines the number of the stars and calls them each by name. |
5 Our Lord is great, with limitless strength; we'll never comprehend what he knows and does | 5 Great is our Lord and mighty in power; his understanding has no limit. |
6 God puts the fallen on their feet again and pushes the wicked into the ditch. | 6 The LORD sustains the humble but casts the wicked to the ground. |
7 Sing to God a thanksgiving hymn, play music on your instruments to God, | 7 Sing to the LORD with thanksgiving; make music to our God on the harp. |
8 Who fills the sky with clouds, preparing rain for the earth, Then turning the mountains green with grass, | 8 He covers the sky with clouds; he supplies the earth with rain and makes grass grow on the hills. |
9 feeding both cattle and crows. | 9 He provides food for the cattle and for the young ravens when they call. |
10 He's not impressed with horsepower; the size of our muscles means little to him. | 10 His pleasure is not in the strength of the horse, nor his delight in the legs of a man; |
11 Those who fear God get God's attention; they can depend on his strength. | 11 the LORD delights in those who fear him, who put their hope in his unfailing love. |
12 Jerusalem, worship God! Zion, praise your God! | 12 Extol the LORD, O Jerusalem; praise your God, O Zion, |
13 He made your city secure, he blessed your children among you. | 13 for he strengthens the bars of your gates and blesses your people within you. |
14 He keeps the peace at your borders, he puts the best bread on your tables. | 14 He grants peace to your borders and satisfies you with the finest of wheat. |
15 He launches his promises earthward - how swift and sure they come! | 15 He sends his command to the earth; his word runs swiftly. |
16 He spreads snow like a white fleece, he scatters frost like ashes, | 16 He spreads the snow like wool and scatters the frost like ashes. |
17 He broadcasts hail like birdseed - who can survive his winter? | 17 He hurls down his hail like pebbles. Who can withstand his icy blast? |
18 Then he gives the command and it all melts; he breathes on winter - suddenly it's spring! | 18 He sends his word and melts them; he stirs up his breezes, and the waters flow. |
19 He speaks the same way to Jacob, speaks words that work to Israel. | 19 He has revealed his word to Jacob, his laws and decrees to Israel. |
20 He never did this to the other nations; they never heard such commands. Hallelujah! | 20 He has done this for no other nation; they do not know his laws. Praise the LORD. |

Students' Questions About GLACIER TAX PREP
The ISSS has received some excellent questions from students who have started to use GLACIER TAX PREP. Since the answers may be of interest to our readers, we are presenting edited versions of those questions below.
I thought I could fill and send income tax forms on line. Do I have to come to the
ISSS? Why should I use GLACIER TAX PREP if I need to come to the ISSS?
Non-resident income tax forms (for those in F or J status for five or fewer years,
since 2009 or later) cannot be filed on-line. The U.S. government offers the on-line filing option for resident
tax payers only. GLACIER TAX PREP computes your tax liability, pre-fills the required federal income tax forms, allows
you to print the forms for postal mailing, and provides instructions for mailing the
forms. The ISSS will have the paper versions of the non-resident income tax forms
available, for both federal and New York State filing. But, if you use GLACIER TAX PREP, you will not need the paper federal forms. Plus, GLACIER TAX PREP does all the tax computations for you.
I did log in to gain access to GLACIER TAX PREP, but I don't understand what GLACIER TAX PREP is. How will GLACIER TAX PREP help me submit the required tax forms. Do I need to pay to use GLACIER TAX PREP? Can I just submit my tax forms myself?
GLACIER TAX PREP is a non-resident tax preparation software that is used by students and scholars
at hundreds of colleges and universities in the United States. Binghamton University
purchases a license each year so that BU international students who are eligible to
file as non-residents can comply with their income tax obligations. GLACIER TAX PREP is offered to BU international students and scholars for free, and removes much of the complexity of completing income tax forms by taking the
income tax information you provide and doing all the work for you. While you can attempt
to complete your income tax forms yourself, most students find it to be a very complicated
process and appreciate the convenience of using GLACIER TAX PREP.
Last semester I received a tuition scholarship as part of my funding as a graduate
assistant. Will I receive a form 1042-S for the tuition scholarship? Do I need to
report the tuition scholarship as income on my tax return?
Tuition scholarships are neither taxable nor reportable as income. So, you do not
report your tuition scholarship as income, nor will you receive any tax form for your
tuition scholarship. At Binghamton University, students do not receive a tuition scholarship
as income. Instead, it is listed as a credit on your student semester bill.
I am a research assistant and I filled my taxes for 2013 using GLACIER TAX PREP software. The calculated tax that I have to pay is $256.00. Why do I need to pay
more federal tax when such tax was already withheld from my paycheck?
There may be several reasons why a student may owe additional income tax. If the
student is from a country that has no tax treaty with the United States, then depending
upon the amount of money earned, the student may owe additional tax. Or, if too little
tax was withheld from a student's earnings during the year, the student may owe tax.
Lastly, if a portion of a student's earnings came from income that was not taxed at
all, then taxes may now be due on that portion of earnings that were not taxed at
the source.
Students who have already obtained a GLACIER TAX PREP access code and are using the product and find that they have technical questions are encouraged to write to the GLACIER TAX PREP help desk at email@example.com Replies are usually received within 48 hours.

The Saronite Mindcrusher is a weaponsmithing weapon - meaning that you have to be a trained weaponsmith to make it - and its not a short or easy process to train as a weaponsmith - all weaponsmith weapons have always been BoP and only usable by the weaponsmith. My paladin has been a weaponsmith since lvl 60, and sported the Lionheart Excecutioner through all of BC - you didnt see many of those around because they were only usable by swordsmiths. Thats how its always been with weaponsmithing.

My whole reason for leveling BS, and then going through the task of becoming a swordsmith was in order to make the Lionheart Executioner - and I have loved that weapon ever since I crafted it. And that's the point - I crafted it - it was a real sense of accomplishment, and I knew that not many people out there would have one - it was unique.
Taking away epic crafter-only BoPs COMPLETELY takes away the very reason I was a Blacksmith. This is like giving all of the cool engineering mounts to everyone, because Blizz doesn't think you should HAVE to be an engineer to get them. It just makes no sense to me - none at all.

Gunman Adam Lanza was honor student, loner
Adam Lanza walked through high school in Newtown, Conn., with his hands glued to his sides, the pens in the pocket of his short-sleeve, button-down shirts among the few things that his classmates recalled about him.
The New York Times
He carried a black briefcase to his 10th-grade honors English class and sat near the door, so he could readily slip in and out. When called upon, he was intelligent, but nervous and fidgety, spitting his words out, as if having to speak up were painful.
Pale, tall and scrawny, Adam Lanza walked through high school in Newtown, Conn., with his hands glued to his sides, the pens in the pocket of his short-sleeve, button-down shirts among the few things that his classmates recalled about him.
He did all he could to avoid attention, it seemed.
Until Friday morning, when, police say, he shot and killed his mother in their home. And then, wearing combat gear and carrying firearms and an abundance of ammunition, he drove to Newtown's Sandy Hook Elementary School and started shooting. By the time he turned one of the guns on himself, police say, he had killed at least 20 children, many of them kindergartners, and six more adults.
In his brief adulthood, Lanza, 20, had left few footprints, electronic or otherwise. He apparently had no Facebook page, unlike his older brother, Ryan, a Hoboken, N.J., resident who for several hours Friday was misidentified in news reports as the perpetrator of the massacre.
Adam Lanza did not even appear in his high-school yearbook, that of the class of 2010. His spot on the page said "camera shy." Others who graduated that year said they did not believe he had finished school.
Matt Baier, now a junior at the University of Connecticut, and other high-school classmates recalled how deeply uncomfortable Lanza was in social situations.
Several said in separate interviews it was their understanding that he had a developmental disorder. They said they had been told the disorder was Asperger syndrome, a high-functioning form of autism.
"It's not like people picked on him for it," Baier said. "From what I saw, people just let him be and that was that."
Law-enforcement officials said Friday that they were examining whether Lanza had such a disorder.
"You could tell that he felt so uncomfortable about being put on the spot," said Olivia DeVivo, also now at the University of Connecticut. "I think that maybe he wasn't given the right kind of attention or help."
DeVivo remembered Lanza from sixth grade and earlier, talking about aliens and "blowing things up," but chalked this up to the typical talk of prepubescent boys.
Still, after hearing of the news Friday, DeVivo reconnected with friends from Newtown, and there was a consensus. "They weren't surprised," she said.
Baier, who sat next to Lanza in the back of their sophomore-year honors math class, said Lanza barely said a word all year, but earned high marks. He said he knew this only from peeking at Lanza's scores when their teacher handed back their tests.
Out of view of his classmates, Lanza's adolescence seemed to have been turbulent. In 2006, his older brother graduated from high school and went to Quinnipiac University in Connecticut. Adam Lanza was then alone with their parents, whose marriage was crumbling.
In 2008, they divorced, after 17 years, court records show. His father, Peter Lanza, a tax executive for GE Energy Financial Services, moved to Stamford, and in January 2011 married a woman who is a librarian at the University of Connecticut.
When Peter Lanza arrived home Friday and was approached by a reporter, he appeared "surprised and horrified" and declined to comment, The Stamford Advocate reported.
Adam Lanza's mother, Nancy Lanza, kept the home in Newtown, in a prosperous, hilly enclave of spacious, newer homes about five miles from the elementary school where she taught kindergarten. Adam Lanza is thought to have been living in the house, too.
Friends remembered Nancy Lanza as very involved in her sons' lives.
"Their mother was very protective, very hands-on," said Gina McDade, whose son was a playmate of Ryan Lanza's and spent much time at his home, which she described as a two-story Colonial with a pool.
"It was a beautiful home," McDade said.
Beth Israel, who lived for a time on the same street as the Lanzas, recalled Adam Lanza as withdrawn, but not threatening.
"Overall, I would just call him a socially awkward kid, I don't know, shy and quiet. Didn't really look you in the eye," Israel said. "Just kind of a weird kid, maybe."
On Friday, police officers and agents from the FBI swarmed through the Lanzas' neighborhood, blocking off streets and asking residents to leave their homes.
Throughout the afternoon, Nancy Lanza's surviving son, Ryan, 24, was named by some news outlets as the killer.
Ryan Lanza's identification had been found on the body of his brother, leading to the mistaken reports.
Brett Wilshe, a neighbor of Ryan Lanza's in Hoboken, said he communicated with Ryan by instant message at 1:15 p.m.
"He said he thought his mom was dead, and he was heading back up to Connecticut," Wilshe said. "He said, 'It was my brother.' "
The Wall Street Journal quoted another friend of Ryan Lanza's as saying that he works for Ernst & Young. "He (is) a little shy, but very nice and sweet," the friend, Katie Colaneri, 24, of Hoboken, told The Journal.
Material from The Washington Post is included in this report.

It's easy to look good in vintage jeans—the hard part is tracking down the right pair! Click through to find yours.
Vintage jeans—unquestionably the jeans of the moment—require some extra effort to pull off. Not because they're any less comfortable and all-American than newer models, or because they won't match nearly everything in your closet. Age doesn't diminish denim's versatility.
The problem isn't about that shrunken fit, either. While the Levi's and Lees and Wranglers of yore ran teeny-tiny, it's not hard to learn the vintage-to-present-day conversion formula (basically, you'll need to go at least three sizes up—more on that here!). No, I'm simply talking about the tremendous amount of work that goes into sifting through one-offs at thrift shops and auction sites for a pair that's just right. Who really has that kind of time?
If you don't, the 17 retro styles in the slideshow above will make the process much easier. My selection includes not only options from a wide span of decades (the '60s, '70s, '80 and '90s) but also from a variety of brands (the classic Levi's, of course, but also a few wildcards like disco-era label Big Yank), washes (from faded and ripped to solid ocean blue), silhouettes (501s, 505s, bell bottoms and beyond) and sizes (ranging from 24 to 32). Click through to find your perfect vintage jeans without the hours (and hours and hours and hours!) of digging.

We've been hard on Chris Bosh here at the Jones, what with "Like A Bosh" and all that. But we're not the only ones. Basically everywhere you could find basketball talk for the past year-and-a-half has had something bad to say about Bosh at some point in time. ESPN, TNT, your dad, his friend Kevin, that weird guy at your pickup games — it's been coming from all sides. A lot of it's been deserved, but it's still been pretty harsh.
And Chris Bosh, to his credit, admits that it got to him. From SLAM:
SLAM: You also pulled back your public persona, not tweeting so much or doing the fun YouTube videos. Was that a result of all the scrutiny?
CB: To some extent. I don't miss it. I value privacy a little bit more than I used to. I was doing those things because I just wanted to have fun and show another side of me. Honestly, all of the negative attention we received last year sort of jaded me from the spotlight. I mean, all of a sudden I suck, I'm the butt of all the jokes… and here's what I found most disturbing: These retired guys from the NBA—this fraternity that we were supposed to be part of—were leading the charge about our alleged failings. They should have been encouraging younger guys.
SLAM: Did all that bring you guys closer together?
CB: Absolutely. All this noise from the outside is what it is. We can't do anything about it, but we're going to lean on one another and help each other through it. We just have to play basketball and keep patting each other on the back. It encourages me to look out for young players even more. An old teammate told me early, "Look out for your guys. This is an exclusive fraternity." I've always believed that, which is why it hurt so much to be attacked by guys we once considered our heroes.
I'm not one to feel bad for basketball players because they are in the spotlight — especially when it's a guy in Chris Bosh's situation, who made a pretty intentional choice to be more visible — but it does have to be disheartening to see everybody turn on you so fast. One day you're an underrated player doing what you can with a limited roster, the next you're the weak link, soft and a baby who just cries all the time. It's easy to ignore when it's some jerk for a Canadian basketball blog, but when it's guys you grew up admiring, that has to be a huge bummer.
Unfortunately for Chris Bosh, he'll always be the third wheel in Miami, playing alongside one of the most hated men in sports. That means he'll always be an easy target, even if he keeps his head down and plays hard. That's what happens when you sign up to play for a team that everyone wants to see lose. Pulling back from the public eye will help, but all it takes is one pass to the face and everyone is laughing at you again. That's just how it goes nowadays.
From what he's saying, it sounds like we shouldn't be expecting any Blane Harrington or Tall Justice any time soon. Don't know about you, but I'm very OK with that.

I love food. I love cooking. I have a big family and we all love eating. We have a tradition that whenever something happens, good or bad, we observe it by eating. We all grew up in the kitchen and good cooks go back generations. That's what we're about and now access to even more information about food is so available, it's like I died and went to food heaven.
So now, I'm going to start cooking things I never made before. I'm already a good cook and I'm going to be a better cook. Lucky You!!!

"Truth to Nature: John Ruskin and Landscape Painting 1840s-1870s"
Dr. Anne Helmreich
Senior Program Office, Getty Foundation; Associate Professor of Art History, Case Western Reserve University
Thursday, November 1, 2012
4:15 pm
Beam Classroom, VAC
The quest for truth to nature irrevocably shaped the course of British art and science in the nineteenth century. This talk examines the dynamic relationship between these two seemingly disparate disciplines and its impact on American art making, drawing on examples highlighted in the exhibition 'We Never See Anything Clearly': John Ruskin and Landscape Painting 1840s-1870s at the Bowdoin College Museum of Art.

A coalition of 16 civil society groups issued a joint statement this week urging Aung San Suu Kyi and her fellow parliamentarians in the National League for Democracy to "raise their voices against the ongoing human rights abuses against the Kachin civilians". The statement declared it was "their duty to protect every citizen of the Union".
The letter was sent days after government armed forces launched a full scale attack, involving jet planes, helicopters and artillery fire, on the Kachin Independence Organization's (KIO) Laiza headquarters. Three people were killed by the offensive; one of which was a child.
The shelling on Jan. 14, killed Assistant Pastor Malang Yaw, 65, Nhkum Bawk Naw, 40 and Hpauyu Doi San Awng, 14. Four other civilians, including two young children, were injured during the attack.
Shortly after news of the deadly incident broke, Aung San Suu Kyi told reporters in Naypyidaw that she wants a ceasefire between the KIO and Burma's government. "I don't like any kind of war or violence ... I have always said that we should negotiate among ourselves so that there is no need to fight like this…We will only be able to avoid such conflicts if we begin to practice a culture of negotiation." But the Nobel Peace winner didn't condemn the army's slaying of civilians.
Publically, Burma's famous opposition leader has had very little to say about the Kachin conflict and the army's behavior since the 17-year ceasefire unraveled on June 9, 2011. Some Kachin civil society groups have criticized Suu Kyi's silence; finding it disturbing.
The open letter signed by several groups, including; the Kachin National Organization- United Kingdom (KNO-UK), the All Kachin Students and Youth Union (AKSYU) and the Kachin Women's Association of Thailand (KWAT), condemned the army's ongoing offensives on Laiza and called for an international investigation on the civilians killed in January.
"We would like to highlight the total lack of consideration for international humanitarian law by the Burmese military, including Geneva Convention (IV) relative to the Protection of Civilian Persons in Time of War, which states in its article 27 that protected persons are entitled, in all circumstances, to respect for their persons, their honour, their family rights, their religious convictions and practices, and their manners and customs," the letter said.
It's unclear if the international community will support a full scale UN investigation into the human rights abuses committed during the conflict. A day after the civilians were killed London based Amnesty International issued a press release calling for Burmese authorities to investigate the causes of the deaths.
"We urge the Myanmar authorities to immediately launch an investigation into the attack on 14 January and to determine if international laws of war were violated," said Isabelle Arradon, Amnesty International's deputy Asia-pacific director in a statement released by group.
Amnesty International stopped short of calling for an international investigation into the killings; a stance likely to disappoint Kachin civil society groups, many of which don't believe that Thein Sein's government can be trusted to conduct a proper investigation about its or army's role the incident.

Town Tune
this wiki
This article requires a cleanup to meet the quality standards of the Animal Crossing Wiki Please edit this page to improve it. Feel free to discuss this cleanup on the article's talk page. |
The Town Tune is the small melody that plays whenever the player talks to a character, when you walk into a door, and also the small melody that plays whenever the Clock Tower bell rings on the hour. A town tune can range anywhere from 1 to 15 notes, as well as the ability to choose one that will play a random note. In Animal Crossing, the town tune could be changed by facing the billboard next to the Post Office. In Animal Crossing: Wild World and Animal Crossing: City Folk, the player must go to the civic center in the Town Hall, talking to Pelly or Phyllis. In Animal Crossing: New Leaf, the town tune can be changed by talking to Isabelle.
Town tunes can also be played on instruments that can be bought in Tom Nook's. If music is playing at the same time, the instrument plays at the same speed.
Every game before New Leaf had their own town tune while the N64 and GameCube versions have the same (except Dōbutsu no Mori e+, which have the different tune). However in New Leaf, there are 4 different default town tunes that are selected randomly when the game is first started.
Sometimes, when town tunes are played while talking to a character, it can relate to the villager's personality. Cranky villagers may make the tune sound somewhat strange, peppy villagers will make the tune sound bouncy and normal villagers will take your tune and make it perky.
On La-Di-Day in Animal Crossing: Wild World, almost every villager will talk about the town tune, and how the player should change it.

Anoscopy is a method to view the anus, anal canal, and lower rectum.
The procedure is usually done in a doctor's office.
A digital rectal exam is done first. Then, a lubricated instrument (anoscope) is placed a few inches into the rectum. You will feel some discomfort when this is done.
The anoscope has a light on the end, so the health care provider can see the entire anal canal. A specimen for biopsy can be taken if needed.
You may receive a laxative, enema, or other preparation before the procedure so that you can completely empty your bowels. You should empty your bladder before the procedure.
There will be some discomfort during the procedure, and you may feel the need to have a bowel movement. You may feel a pinch when a biopsy is taken. You can usually return to normal activities after the procedure.
This test may be used to determine whether you have:
The anal canal appears normal in size, color, and tone. There is no evidence of bleeding, polyps, hemorrhoids, or other abnormal tissue.
Abnormal results may include:
There are few risks. If a biopsy is needed, there is a slight risk of bleeding and mild pain.

I want to strip the paint from an Andersen windows in my house but first I want to remove the hardware so I can do a neat job on the wood. The locks came off fine but the cover to the crank handle is another matter. I have attached a photo of the cover. I searched the Internet and found a few videos for the disassembly of Andersen window cranks but none of them had screws and they all just popped off. After moving the screws from mine the cover is a bit loose but will not come off. The window was installed in the mid 80's. Does anyone know how I can get the cover off? Thanks. |

Loosen it from the paint to start with. Have you checked Andersen's site? They usually do a really good job of putting up instructions. |
- Posted by flasharino (My Page) on Mon, Nov 12, 12 at 12:33
As I mentioned the cover IS loose. It is not attached by any paint. I will check Andersen's site. |
- Posted by Jumpilotmdm (My Page) on Thu, Nov 15, 12 at 21:45
Grab the plastic around the hub with a pair of padded pliers, so as not to scratch the lexan cover [Andersen's name for it]. Pull gently then firmly will working the pliers all up & down & side to side. It should eventually come off as it probably is just painted in place. Maybe score the bottom edge with a knife to help it release. |
- Posted by cheeseblood (My Page) on Sat, Jun 28, 14 at 20:54
I realize this was posted a few years ago, but since there wasn't a resolution I will kick in my findings. The only way I found to remove this cover was to remove the trim behind the crank so you can get at it with a flat head screw driver. When the back of it is exposed simply put the flat head between the crank and the plastic and give it a quarter turn. It should be done on both sides of the crank and it will pop right off. Hope this helps future folks. |

What's your opinion of the Food Hygiene Ratings Scheme?
View Options | View Results
Pest control is an area of food safety that often gets overlooked until a problem is discovered, however pest activity can severely affect a food business. The obvious direct impact pest can have on a food business is tthrough the introduction of bacteria that can contaminate food and cause illness but pest activity can also cause significant damage to the structure or fabric of the premises. It is therefore very important that pest activity is controlled.
Pests will be attracted to any location that can offer food, warmth or a place that can offer protection and it is simply not possible to remove their presence from the environment completely. Of course, the presence of pests in an area can be significantly increased if other establishments near by fail to introduce pest control measures into their business.
Pests can be divided into 3 categories:
There are a number of measures that can be taken to control pests:
Pest Proofing:
Buidlings that house food premises must be in a good state of repair, this itself will help to restrict pest access and prevent them establishing breeding grounds.
Insect Screens:
Windows and doors will inevitably be opened from time to time and this is an obvious easy way to allow pests to enter a food premises. Therefore the fitting of screens will help to reduce the opportunity for pest to gain access.
Electronic Fly Killing Devices (EFK's):
Probably the most commonly used pest control devices seen in food business are EFK's . They are recognised due to the coloured bulb that attracts flying pests. These devices attract and then electrocute flying insects to reduce possible contamination of food.
Good Housekeeping:
No amount of proofing or automatic pest capture will replace good observation and housekeeping. All workers in food premises should be aware of potential infestation or the presence of pests and how to limit the chance of pests coming into the food premises.
Pest Control Contractors:
All food businesses should always employ the services of a pest control company. Pest contractors should offer a number of services including inspections, pest proofing, infestation irradication and the positioning of bait and traps as well as an emergency service. All pest contractor reports should be kept for local inspectors to view during visits.
Checking, Inspection and Monitoring:
Even if you have proofed your premises, use EFK's and you have a pest contractor employed you still need to conduct checks and inspections yourself. Workers should be made aware of what to look for in terms of pest activity. Managers and Owners must know what action to take if infestation occurs.
When you build your food safety system using our software you have the opportunity to identify where pests can present a risk or hazard to your buisiness. Once you identify that they present a risk you have the facility to create a set of rules and procedures that will assist your business to control pest activity and limit their impact.
The rules and procedures you create are not designed to make you a pest control expert, however, what they will do is provide guidance to you and your workers about what action must be taken. We have provided extensive guidance to help you determine what measures you may need to include and what action you decide to take.
You can also create a weekly report form that can have a pest control section guiding managers or owners to formally inspect their premises.
As a full member of our site you can always contact us for direct assistance if you have a specific concern.

And I just can't say no to them.
Matt's end of year bash for his new company was this evening. And it was a blast! We ventured to the Beyu Cafe in Durham – a restaurant/venue I had not yet visited. There was an open bar, and I just couldn't resist the fresh cocktail menu! So I ordered the 10$ drinks I always dream of ordering…
I had the Kentucky 57 – Maker's, simple syrup, and champagne. So delish!
My second drink was an Cactus flower – an mix of a flowery liqueur, cucumber, and basil. SOOO good. (I requested the tall glass bc martini glasses are too easy to spill). There may have been a phenomenal margarita after this…
I expected dinner to be a mix of fried appetizers, but it was awesome! They had amazing chicken, salmon with rice and asparagus, steak kabobs, and salad with optional toppings (so happy they left off the onions!)
There was a pretty decent band, but we spent so much time talking that there wasn't much dancing. Matt had to come home to work on a paper, but if it had been a Friday, this would have been a good dancin' band!
I'm pumped that I don't have to go to work tomorrow, although I'm gonna have to hunker down and do some report writing:( But then I'll be free for the weeeekend!!!

I love the title of this post because I feel the same way! Looks like you made some good choices–I LOVE champagne and champagne-mixed cocktails. Have a great weekend!
Looks like a fun night the drinks look amazing!
Katie Cummings
I usually request my martinis on the rocks, they stay colder longer, and are more sip-able. Plus I'm worried I'll spill!

The Student Council at the Steelville Middle School raised funds to buy a rug for the building. The rug is red and has "cardinal spirit" written all over it! The next time you get a chance to come to a Steelville Cardinal home game, or any school event, come on in, and take a look at the rug. You will be glad Steelville Student Council raised the funds to buy it.
