Szakmai tapasztalat
Helped a public professional services company revise its code of business ethics and conduct and develop a business ethics awareness and compliance program to comply with the requirements of FAR §52.203-13, which engagement included drafting an overall compliance program that set forth the responsibilities of the Board of Directors, Audit Committee, Compliance Committee, Chief Ethics and Compliance Officer, other members of management, supervisors and employees and supporting the company's ongoing efforts to implement the program.
Helped a professional services client establish a contractor team agreement among three holders of General Services Administration Federal Supply Schedule contracts, which agreement covered developing a team solution, proposing the solution as a "contractor team arrangement" and performing any resulting task orders issued by the government agency customer and included provisions addressing each team member's responsibilities for proposal activities and order fulfillment.
Represented a public company in an all cash stock acquisition of a private middle market government contractor. Because there were outstanding stock appreciation rights (SAR) and stock options that had to be cancelled at closing, the agreement addressed taxes to be withheld from the closing cancellation payments and any amounts released to the former SAR and option holders from the general indemnity escrow. Because one of the stockholders as an employee stock option plan (ESOP) the agreement had separate indemnification limitations and a separate escrow for the ESOP.
Represented a public company in its acquisition of a middle market company performing services for the intelligence community. The acquisition was a reverse triangular merger. The merger consideration was subject to a net asset adjustment, an adjustment for certain withholding taxes and a post-closing earn-out. Because of certain tax issues relating to the target's pre-closing distribution of the shares of a wholly-owned subsidiary, the merger agreement had special provisions relating to filing an amended post-closing tax return. A Hart-Scott-Rodino Act filing was a condition of closing.
Represented an unsuccessful offeror before the GAO in a protest of the award of a US$212 million contract by the Department of Homeland Security, Transportation Security Administration (TSA), for the operation and maintenance of the Transportation Threat Assessment and Credentialing Operations and Computing Environment at certain facilities, which resulted in TSA's cancelling the award, amending the solicitation, soliciting revised proposal and making a new award decision (
InfoZen, Inc.
, B-408466.2, Aug. 19, 2013).
Represented an unsuccessful offeror before the GAO in a protest of the Army's US$20 billion Information Technology Enterprise Solutions-2 (ITES-2) Services contract award resulting in the client receiving an IDIQ award (
Multimax, Inc., et al.
, B-298249.6, et al., Oct. 24, 2006, 2006 CPD ¶ 165).
Successfully defended multiple protests of an award to a client by the Army for information technology services (
AC4S, Inc.

Trace Systems, Inc.
, B-404811.4,.7, June 2, 2011, 2011 CPD ¶ 116).
Represented American Systems Corporation (AS) in a qui tam action filed in the District Court for the Eastern District of Virginia under the False Claims Act. The case alleged that AS and its subcontractors provided gratuities, received confidential source selection data and submitted invoices under a contract, the award of which by the CIA to AS had been influenced by gratuities and receipt of source selection data. Representation included negotiation of a Settlement Agreement among the government, defendants and relator to dismiss the case and an Administrative Agreement with the CIA's suspension/debarment official to reinstate AS as a responsible contractor (

., No. 1:09 Civ. 1011).

Great job of missing the major points.
Not about him deeming Martin suspicious, it's about him violating the NW manual and his training.
RE: how to act? African Americans have a responsibility to wear clothing in a certain way. Sounds uncomfortably similar to knowing how to talk to a white man protocols African Americans had to abide by in the 50s and 60s.
Lot of people on both sides of this issue, missing the real lessons of this case.

How To Keep A Running Training Log
If you run several times a week and are ready to get more serious about it, you need to learn how to keep a running training log. A running log can help you get ready for an event or it can simply give you a visual representation of all the running you have been doing. While training logs are primarily used for recording the running you have done, they can also be used to remind you of upcoming dates and events as well as setting goals. You can create your running training log on something as simple as a piece of paper or you can use a computer to make it easier to record and analyze multiple records.
- Write down the dates for all of your upcoming training days. These should be on the left side of the paper or the far left column of the spreadsheet. This way all the information about your running for that day can be located to the right of the date. If you plan on having multiple training sessions during the day, put the date down twice. If you are unsure of the exact dates when you will be training, leave this space blank until you are ready to record the information, but it is often better to schedule your training so you will be less likely to blow it off.
- Record the conditions outside. Ignore this if you practice indoors. This may not seem important, but will enable you to track how different weather and temperatures affects your running.
- Write down the start time and end times of your session. Hopefully you were running for the entire session, but if not, you might want to subtract any time you spent walking or standing.
- Record the distance traveled or the number of steps. If you have a pedometer, recording the number of steps is a great way to track your progression. You can do the same thing by tracking the distance you ran, but obviously only if you know the distance.
- Write down any additional exercises or techniques you used. As you progress in your running you might want to try sprinting for 30 seconds every few minutes or doing a set of high-knees every half-mile. There are a number of different techniques you can use and you want to record these to show your progress.
- Add any events or milestones to your future dates. If you have a meet or race coming up in two weeks, write it on your log in huge letters. This will remind you what you are planning for and can give you some visual assistance. If you run three miles every session, you'll want to see the total time drift slowly downward as you get closer to your race.

How to prepare your child for a stay at the hospital
Regardless of what service your child will be receiving at the hospital, there are ways in which you can better prepare them and yourself for what to expect during your stay.
At Swedish, Child Life Specialists help children and families cope with the hospital process. Child Life Specialists are available to help educate and prepare children and families prior to surgery and/or an inpatient stay. Some tips on how to prepare your child for an inpatient stay include .....
Helping kids heal with music and technology
With her back turned, the little girl doesn't notice a young man entering the room. He is holding a tool, one of which the full power and potential is still unknown to most. Even though he has witnessed its abilities before, what happens next still takes even him by surprise.
Not knowing what to say, he says nothing at all. He lifts his instrument and strikes the first chord. The girl stops. He continues to play. The girl turns and slides to the floor. The young man sinks to his knees, the same level as the girl. Strumming his ukulele the young man begins to sing. The little girl begins to scoot herself across the floor, 20 feet to where the young man kneels, closer and closer until her knees touch his.
There are gasps coming from the doorway, as a handful of hospital staff and nurses witness to an amazing transformation. In a flip of a switch, the little girl went from utter anxiety to calm and happy, soothed by the sound of music. As the young man finishes his song, the little girl smiles, reaches out her hand to touch his, then falls back, smiling and laughing.
This is the story of Melodic Caring Project Founder, Levi Ware, on his most recent visit to provide live music to pediatric patients at Swedish First Hill.
"I've been playing music for a long time and I've seen a lot of amazing things happen when music is introduced into certain situations. What happened on the Pediatric Unit at Swedish was one of the most wonderful, beautiful and undeniably powerful music experiences I've had. ...
Lymph nodes in children
About half of all children will develop enlarged lymph nodes (cervical lymphadenitis) in the neck for example, and the vast majority of these are in response to a minor infection in the area (sore throat, sinus infection, ear infection, etc.). Often the infection is quite subtle and might not be identified. These nodes typically go through a pattern of growing and then receding in size once the infection resolves. This process can take several weeks to months. The nodes may become tender, warm, and there may be some redness of the overlying skin. Your child might complain of pain in the area, be fussier, have fever, and/or have decreased appetite. If the node itself becomes infected, it can turn into an abscess and would require antibiotics and a drainage procedure. Any possibly infected lymph node should be evaluated by your doctor.
Some enlarged lymph nodes ...
When do kids need antibiotics?

Swedish to Host World's First Live-Instagrammed, Live-Tweeted Hearing Restoration Surgery as Part of Month-Long Educational Web Series on Hearing Loss
SEATTLE, Sept. 26, 2012 - Swedish Medical Center and Douglas Backous, M.D., medical director of the Center for Hearing and Skull Base Surgery at the Swedish Neuroscience Institute, will host the world's first live-instagrammed and live-tweeted cochlear implant (hearing restoration) surgery on Tuesday, Oct. 2 at 7 a.m. Pacific Time (PT).
The Facts (and Fiction) About Ear Infections
The most common bacterial illness in children accounting for millions of doctor visits each year is otitis media — a middle ear infection. Acute otitis media typically occurs during or after a cold, upper respiratory infection or bout with allergies when the Eustachian tube that connects the middle ear to the throat becomes swollen and traps fluid. The fluid can cultivate bacteria or viruses, causing an infection.
Is there any way to protect your child from this potentially painful illness? How do you know if treatment is needed? We spoke with Swedish Otolaryngologist Linnea Peterson, M.D. who helped us separate fact from fiction regarding middle ear infections.
There is no way to avoid repeated ear infections; they're just a part of childhood.
- "Though it's true that otitis media is one of the most common childhood ailments, parents can take steps to reduce their child's risk," says Dr. Peterson. "Consider....

Primary deficit
It has been suggested that this article be merged with Government budget balance. (Discuss) Proposed since August 2012. |
In commerce, a primary deficit is the deficit which is derived after deducting the interest payments component from the fiscal deficit (Fiscal deficit = total expenditure - (total revenues - borrowings)) of any budget.[1]
In other words, the total of primary deficit and interest payments makes up the total or fiscal deficit. The opposite of a primary deficit is a primary surplus.
Effect to economic growth[edit]
Example of India[edit]
"Higher fiscal deficit in India has been one of the major reasons for higher level of inflation in the Indian economy as compared to other developing and developed nations.The cycle of high deficit and high inflation can be explained in two different ways. Firstly, high fiscal deficit indicates a high level of government borrowing that has a tendency to reduce the availability of capital. This leads to lower liquidity and consequently higher interest rates and higher inflation.
On the other hand, assuming that the government is borrowing to invest in the economy, this leads to increased spending that leads to greater money supply in the economy which can further lead to inflation if output fails to keep pace with this increased amount of spending (which has usually been the case in India). Further, to curb a rise in the level of inflation, the central bank resorts to a hike in interest rates. Thus, we see that high fiscal deficits could lead to higher interest rates and it could further fuel inflation in the economy if not checked adequately."[2]

The recession that ended three years ago this summer has been followed by the feeblest economic recovery since the Great Depression.
Since World War II, 10 U.S. recessions have been followed by a recovery that lasted at least three years. An Associated Press analysis shows that by just about any measure, the one that began in June 2009 is the weakest.
The ugliness goes well beyond unemployment, which at 8.3 percent is the highest this long after a recession ended.

I couldn't quite decide if this is my second or third most favorite time of year.
And I realized just how much I watch way too much TV because I am writing this anticipatory column about the upcoming new Fall TV Season.
But, I really hate being bored — and all this summer's reruns and summer replacements have driven me halfway up the wall. They always have. Especially when I was younger and I didn't have all those ridiculous, but still new and unseen, cable shows available.
Now, "Big Brother" this summer was a saving grace, which is an odd thing to call a rather bizarre show concept to begin with, but at least it was something different I hadn't seen before.
But I digress.
I hate the programming available — or should I more accurately say unavailable — during the summer months. But, I have made it through the doldrums once again and now, here it is — the fall television season looming before me.
This week. They all start this week. I am in television heaven.
First, let me just tell you that I have been chomping at the bit to find out what happens on "Castle" between, well, Castle and his police detective. At the end of last season, she finally professed her love for him — and that's how the season ended.
I really can't wait to find out the next story line. It's almost as exciting as some of the infamous story lines of television history lore, such as who shot J.R. Ewing. Funny, however, I can't remember any others, and neither could anybody else I asked.
Oh well, that still leaves me with the season opener of "Castle." I can live with that.
Oh, and "The Mentalist." I'm afraid I don't even remember what cliffhanger that season finale left, well, hanging. I think I still remember that Red John is still out there tormenting our non-psychic psychic-like consultant. Did someone get shot? Lisbon maybe? I sure can't wait to see the season opener to find out. All I know is that "The Mentalist" ranks in the top of my faves, so it has to be good.
But now, for the meat of this season, the new fall offerings.
One of the shows I am looking forward to most, and so seem to be the critics, is "Elementary" with that fella who was once married to Angelina Jolie — no kidding! — and that actress who was on "The View" or "The Today Show" or some such thing. You'll recognize her face.
Anyway, it's a modern-day version of "Sherlock Holmes" mysteries. Doesn't sound all that cool when I say it like that, but the promos and the photography and the somewhat quippy repartee seems to be promising. At least for right now.
You know how that works. Sometimes the initially most intriguing shows just fall flatter than a pancake. And you can usually tell in the first 10 minutes or so of viewing.
It's extremely disappointing. I guess I just expect too much. Not sure why. I should know better by now.
Oh, and another new show I am looking forward to is "Animal Practice." I have a friend who is a veterinarian. That must be the coolest job in the world — to hang around with animals all day. Wow. I sure envy her. The show is a comedy about an irreverent veterinary clinic doc, as I understand it, and a monkey, along with an entire supporting menagerie.
I love animals. Should be lots of fun.
There's also a scary show titled "666 Park Avenue." Not so sure I am going to like that. I don't like horror stories much. The TV critics didn't select this one as one of their faves either.
They did, however, pick "Arrow." This appears to be another adventure series kinda, sorta inspired by that recent extremely popular movie featuring archery, "The Hunger Games." The synopsis reads, "A wealthy playboy by day and a vigilante crime-fighter by night, the Green Arrow."
Apparently, he actually was a comic superhero. Who knew? I certainly didn't. I've never heard of him. But it just might be campy enough, even though he doesn't appear to be one of the top superheroes around. I could be wrong. I'll find out.
OK. Here's another editor's pick, but it's definitely not my cup of tea. Completely turned off to it. Here's the synopsis for the new comedy show, "Ben and Kate" — "The lovable but goofy Ben moves in with his sister, a single mom, to help take care of his niece, Maddie."
Ho hum. Boring.
Here's another that has the look of potential, but I fear will fall flat on its face. The next try for the "Friends" gang by Matthew Perry called "Go On." The "Friends" cast doesn't seem to have had too much luck keeping a head of steam on their careers after "Friends," but Perry is giving it another try by playing a sportscaster who joins a support group made up of a bunch of weird fellow "clients" after his wife dies.
I also don't like the whole concept of the show "Last Resort." OK. Listen up here. The premise of the show is that an American sub is fired on by us, the U.S., after the sub refuses to fire its nuclear missiles. Now the sub folks have to find refuge and fight us, the bad good guys. Even the review used the phrase, "Just go with it."
I'm not going anywhere with it, I can tell you that. I'm just really sorry that the actor Andre Braugher — I really love him as an actor — is involved with what I fear is one of the lamest TV show concepts ever.
"Made in Jersey" sounds fun. It's about a New Jersey lawyer working in Manhattan who is looked down upon, but eventually does everything right and decent and honest. The only problem I have with this show is that a British actress was hired to play a Jersey girl. Aren't there enough American actresses available ... they had to outsource?
There are many more like "Major Crimes," which is a spinoff of "The Closer," "Nashville," "Partners" (another?), "Vegas," "Revolution," "The Mob Doctor" and "Guys with Kids."
I knew I always loved fall, even when it wasn't everything I hoped for.

Every Tuesday evening, Dean Gallagher opens the doors of the Newcastle Multi-Purpose center at the library to dance up a storm.
Gallagher and the members of Tri City's Centennial Squares square dancing club have been offering lessons to members and enthusiasts at the library for more than five years now.
Gallagher, himself a member of Centennial Squares for three years, is a former square dance caller and the club's current president.
"Square dancing is done with four couples in a circle," Gallagher said. "You just dance to what the caller puts out."
Often linked to the culture of the American West, square dancing has its origins in 17th century England, spreading to France and much of Europe. The dance was brought to the U.S. with the first waves of European settlers in the 18th century.
A square dance is defined as four couples of dance partners, arranged in a square, responding to instructions put out by a caller, often to the beat of music.
While commonly associated with country and western music, square dancing has no predefined genre. During a previous class, dancers began by dancing to the beat of a disco remix of the "Star Wars" theme.
If the group has any challenges facing them, it's the attempt to draw in younger participants. Many participants and learners are well beyond their 30s. Gallagher himself has been dancing for nearly half a century with his wife, Theresa.
"With square dancing, it's about the people you meet," Gallagher said, "They're the greatest people in the world, and they all come out just to have a good time."
Lessons are $25 per session, along with $5 monthly dues for Centennial Squares membership. For more information and lesson times, call the Newcastle Library at (405) 387-5076.

Mike Keane has just completed a PhD (2003) at NUI, Galway. He is currently employed as a post-doctoral researcher in the School of Psychology within the GSK-TCIN-NUIG research consortium.
Mike is currently employed as a post-doctoral researcher in the School of Psychology, within the GSK-TCIN-NUIG research consortium. The broad aim of this research group is to develop early interventions for people with Alzheimer's Disease. Mike's work focuses on identifying EEG markers of early cognitive decline in older adults. Cognitive decline has been linked to increased amplitude variability in the ERP as well as decreases in fronto-temporal coherence. This research project is being paralleled by a similar project which is being undertaken at the Trinity College Institute of Neuroscience .
During his PhD, Mike set up the University's first EEG laboratory, which includes a 40 channel amplifier. As part of his current position, Mike has created another, more advanced laboratory with broader capabilities, including a 70 channel EEG amplifier. A private area is available beside the EEG labs where participants can wash their hair etc following an EEG experiment. He currently manages both laboratories and oversees all work carried out within the labs. Most of the labs' supplies, including the amplifiers, caps and recording and analysis software are supplied by Brain Products (München, www.brainproducts.com), through their UK/Ireland distributors at Brain Vision (UK, www.brainvision.co.uk).
Mike's PhD work centred on an investigation of the effects of dietary caffeine on the human EEG, with a particular emphasis on controlling for the confounding effects of caffeine withdrawal. His main findings suggested that, when withdrawal and withdrawal reversal are controlled, caffeine's 'stimulatory' effects are not as clear as previous research has suggested. As well as this, his work corroborated the emerging idea that performance and mood benefits of caffeine reported previously are most likely due to withdrawal reversal and these benefits disappear when withdrawal is controlled. All of these findings have been published (see below).
Mike has also spent three months working in the Wolfgang Klimesch Laboratory in the Department of Physiological Psychology in the University of Salzburg, concentrating primarily on various signal analysis methods under the supervision of Dr. Paul Sauseng. He maintains research links with the laboratory in Salzburg, as well as with colleagues in the Trinity College Institute of Neuroscience, St. James's Hospital, and the Department of Psychology, NUI, Maynooth. Mike also serves as an advisor to the members of the EEG Laboratory at the University of Ulster in Coleraine.

Here is my problem. My fiance has a 17 y.o. daughter. The living arrangement is that she stays with her mother through the week, then spends every other weekend with her father. (Her father is off only every other weekend). Her father and I are in a long distance relationship so I see him only once a month. My problem is this. I would be delighted to spend time with her, and include her in our plans except as a teenager she never knows her plans until the last minute. Never in advance. Even then her plans change or involve more people (like her boyfriend) Her father and I cannot make any plans until she tells us what she is doing. I must confess that I feel resentful of being held hostage by a capricious teenager. |

You're not being held hostage by a capricious teen-ager; you're just involved with a guy who hasn't placed any structure on his time with his daughter. Guy. Daughter. A crucial thing to remember here, I think, is that if you involve yourself or put yourself in the middle, both of them are likely to at least life an eyebrow & maybe feel some resentment. Her father can impose some structure. example: "Daughter, Friday nights & Saturday until, say, 6 PM are daddy/daughter time; "After that, you can go with marypoppins & me to the park/mall/etc if you like, or you can go on your date or whatever else you have planned." I wish you the best. |

Mary, can you not arrange your weekend when 17 yr old is not visiting? Teens are teens. She won't be around much longer. Are you sure your resentment isn't really aimed toward your fianc´┐Ż ? |
Sylvia - I know it sounds very easy, setting boundaries with a teen girl that you have partial custody of. But let me tell you, as a man in the middle of this exact situation, with a 15 yr old who is not only going thru normal "teen angst", but one that we have had in counseling for years with limited results for her behavior and anxieties, it is not that simple. "..we'll go to the park/mall/movies/restaurant/ball game/ballet/etc" I could just imagine the look on my teen's face if I suggest that just her and I spend an afternoon at the mall, or a park....or anywhere actually. While I would love nothing more that do spend one-on-one time with her, I would literally have to physically drag her there to do so. She'd probably rather have needles stuck in her eyes. Not saying the dad cant do some things different here, but just trying to point out that things are always SOOO much simpler when looking from the outside when dealing with kids. And it is compounding a million times when the child has "options" on where to stay...if I don't like something she's doing and punish her, she will just go stay at her moms for a while, and while it sounds as simple as just getting her mom on board with whatever my punishment is, trust me that's not that easy either..... |

To LaVern. My fiance is only off every other weekend so the only weekends he is off his daughter visits. I once suggested that since we only see each other once a month maybe he could skip a week end with her. That did not go over well. The weekend is coming up so I will just have to buck it up and go with the flow. I am having a hotflash thinking about it. |
--"I once suggested that since we only see each other once a month maybe he could skip a week end with her. That did not go over well."-- Good for Dad. Why should the daughter be asked to forego her visit with Dad because the GF thinks GF should have 'equal' visitations rights? Not the daughter's fault you live long distance and can only 'visit' one wkd a month. Not the daughter's fault Dad works 2 wkds a month. It's not going to be long before this young lady is out and on her own (whether off to university or busy starting her adulthood with employment, her own family, blah blah)...Dad has chosen to make the best of the time he has left. It's his choice to be flexible and have ease in his weekends with his daughter...laying resentment on the daughter is misplaced resentment on your part. Sure it's frustrating the *your* guy is only available x amount of time. Sure it's annoying that plans get put on hold BUT it has been Dad's choice to maintain this easy going manner of his weekends he is off. With that said, there's no reason why Dad can't say to daughter something like 'Mary and I are having dinner at 7pm Saturday evening and you and _____ (her BF) are welcome to join us'. If she announces 'thanks but no thanks, BF and I are going to a movie' no need for Dad to cancel dinner. If daughter says an hour before she's chaqnged her mind and BF and her will be joining Dad/you for dinner, then you have a chance at being *delighted* with having spent the evening with the daughter. On the otherhand, if you actually thought something along the lines that Dad would just dump daughter for one of his 2 wkds to take you on a long weekend for a romatic get-a-way, you're likely mistaken. But again, declining to take that type of weekend has been father's choice, nothing to resent the daughter over. Perhaps it's time to review what it is you want out of this relationship. What it is your needs are and whether or not you are *engaged* the correct gentleman at the correct time of his life. I'm going to assume that there is nothing 'new' in this child visitation schedule that was not present when you decided to hook-up with this gentleman. You knew he had the daughter, knew when he worked and when his daughter would be having father/daughter visitations. Nothings really changed for father and daughter, only thing that has changed is how you feel about it. So yeah, "buck it up and go with the flow" as you say or choose to stay in your hometown and enjoy your weekend coming/going/doing as suits you. No one, especially the daughter, is forcing you to spend a weekend against your wishes. If the guy is worth the wait and a promising future awaits the guy and you as a couple in what appears to be ,in your situation, the foreseeable not long off future, why get greedy and resent/deny Dad what little time he has left of being involved in the last stages of his daughters childhood years. |
Great answer JMT...couldn't have expressed it any better.... |

I recently saw this recipe for Irish Soda Bread and I immediately remembered little Irish Soda Breads I made a loooong time ago. The flavor and texture and the smell of them baking! I must have caraway seeds and cardamom perfectly blended in a doughy slightly sweet bread. With plump little currants.
I did it! I did it! I love it! I love it!
The original recipe I found and made (with the addition of cardamom) is here. They use a flour blend which resulted in a whole meal kind of bread. The bread really didn't hold together well enough for my purposes.
Irish Soda Bread, as I recall it, is unabashedly white bread. I re-did the recipe a few times adding some of my flour blend and making a few other changes. The final result is super simple to make, once you gather all your ingredients.
I am playing with my version of their flour blend in other recipes. It makes a very different crumb when baked. The blend recipe is at the end of the post.
- ½ cup currants, soaked/drained or well rinsed
- 1 cup gluten-free Hi Protein Flour Blend*
- 2 tablespoons coconut flour
- 6 tablespoons gluten-free flour blend
- 1/4 cup + 1 tablespoon sorghum flour
- 3 tablespoons vegan sugar
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 1 1/4 teaspoon baking soda
- ¾ teaspoon xanthan gum
- ½ teaspoon sea salt
- 6 tablespoons coconut oil
- 2 tablespoons apple sauce
- 1/2 cup So Delicious PLAIN coconut yogurt or vegan sour cream
- 1 cup So Delicious organic coconut milk (unsweetened)
- 1 tablespoon vinegar or lemon juice
- 1 Tablespoon caraway seeds
- 1/8 teaspoon cardamom
Combine the wet ingredients and set them aside.
Put all the dry ingredients in your mixer bowl.
Turn it off and on a couple of times to blend them.
Add coconut oil by the tablespoon to the flour mixture.
Let the coconut oil break up in the flour mix until you have
a fairly uniform almost cornmeal like mixture.
Add the cardamom and caraway seeds.
Add the liquid ingredients in two stages. Mix minimally.
When almost evenly mixed, add the drained currants.
Mix just until the dough is blended.
The dough gets firmer as it sits.
I made 12 muffins. I'm sure it would make a nice little loaf too.
This is a lovely, slightly starchy, dense dough. I flattened the muffins with wet hands. Then I sprinkled on some sorghum flour and cut crosses in them. The dough was extremely easy to work with.
Bake muffins at 375 degrees for 20 – 25 minutes.
If you made muffins like I did, you could be eating hot Soda Bread now!
Hi Protein Flour Blend:
(This is my version of the original blend. You can see the original blend in the original article.Original….)
1 cup garfava flour
1 cup arrowroot starch
1 cup tapioca flour
1 cup millet flour
1/2 cup amaranth flour

Also I must take notice that Pixie Hollow is based off of a direct to DVD franchise.
What is sad to me is that Disney is doing this to compete with Universal after the addition on the Harry Potter section and it doesn't seem like Disney is going to even come close to matching Universal on this one. Fairies and princesses are not going to bring in extra revenue. People that don't go to Disney now don't go because this is what they think all Disney is, just princesses and girly stuff. Pleasing the 5-9 year old girl fanbase will not help at all. If they really wanted to compete with Universal Orlando, they should have added more Star Wars and Indiana Jones to Hollywood Studios.
Also I must take notice that Pixie Hollow is based off of a direct to DVD franchise.
I was listening to Lou's recent podcast and there was a comment about how Disney needed a historian. I agree. Someone should be tasked with keeping all of this history alive. I think we are getting a little off topic here but more focus on Disney's history would help a lot in these matters.
Let's face it...the days of old are gone...Disney no longer thinks with it's imagination...it now thinks with it's wallet...unfortunately that is finally catching up to them. Maybe they need to go back to what worked...movies...not cgi cartoons...real people on film...and don't release them to The Disney Channel...and enough with the singing teens that can't sing without using an autotune.

What if they made an E-ticket attraction where they can capture the attention of both boys and girls? Maybe something with Aladdin. It is one of my favorite movies and I know that people love the movie. This film is really lacking the notoriety it deserves in the parks, let's be honest the Magic Carpets of Aladdin is really nothing but Dumbo with rugs.
Boys get Aladdin a rough tough witty guy. While the girls get Jasmine the beautiful graceful princess. Then everyone can appreciate the antics of the Genie. Then they can pull Jafar into it so they can throw a plot twist into the whole thing.
I'm not saying Disney should go hog wild with the thrills I would just like to see something else that is a crowd pleaser. Something along the thrill lines of Splash or Dinosaur.
I know I would make sure I got to WDW just to experience that ride.
Disney World is not just a place, but an experience.
Back in the world for the 2013 Marathon Weekend!
that sounds smarter than what they are planning
jim hill media (a dubious source) has an article that says disney is already rethinking the fantasyland changes if the article is correct it is a somewhat good sign

well if John Lasseter is truly in charge of all of this... he better tell his people that more needs to be done...

I believe Hill has always had the best inside information to all things Disney. He, several years ago spoke of the Suites on the other side of Pop. People Poo Poo'd him, obviously it was delayed, but is going to happen. Since D23 and the blog launched, there are few "news" or rumors that get out before it is seen on the D23 Blog. I am a conspiracy thinker and believe D23 and Mousefest being gone indeed went hand in hand. Disney has always had binding agreements with "players" that accepted into the fold you do not talk about agreements.
Fantasyland will be a stop bye for my family but after once I doubt it will be on our To Do List. Harry Potter is likely to be a long term draw for Universal. So many Disney Tourists are going to be 1st timers at Universal. Many will learn it isn't Disney but a great place to spend a couple of days in Orlando. My prediction is so many will chop a day or 2 off their Disney Park passes and spend some time at Universal Parks.
Ya, we will all still favor Disney but that will be a chunk of change Disney will loose to Universal and FL and StarWars update won't put an end to the Universal-Harry Potter.
I will visit Fantasyland just as much I usually do if the current plans stay in place. Out of all the new things they are adding only the Little Mermaid ride seems worthwhile. So hopefully a change will happen and we will get more than just Princess meet and greets. Yes a Star Wars update won't put an end to Universal and Harry Potter. That is obvious. Potter fans are going to go to Universal no matter what. Disney, even before Potter, should have always made the Star Wars presence larger in MGM though. I think adding more attractions featuring Star Wars will increase revenue for Disney. Not just an update to the current ride but a whole section of the park dedicated to the franchise would bring in a lot of guests. I don't think a ride simulator is going to bring in the masses but if Disney does with Star Wars what Universal did with Harry Potter, I think Disney would benefit. Star Wars is and will always be bigger than Harry Potter. Potter will be big for awhile but I really don't think it has the longevity of Star Wars.

Cataclysm: Stat and system changes for holy paladins {WoW}
Mar 2nd 2010 9:01AM Mastery is likely the way Blizz will be implementing the removal of the boring and necessary talents in all the trees. You know, the ones that just boost a core stat like strength for plate DPS, spell power for casters, or stamina for tanks. Those are the talents that we currently view as the default talent choices. I don't think it will be a way that they give players the "fun" talents that we might have seen as glyphs or a tier bonus.
Its actually quite ingenious; this way they can rip apart all of the trees and still maintain the expected performance in all the classes / specs. Expect to see balancing acts in future patches to the mastery bonuses, instead of tweaking entire talent trees.

Feb 10th 2010 6:13PM I find it funny that in the picture for this article that the player is shown equipping the Maghari's Chieftains Staff, and not a Nibelung. Just thought I'd add my 2 cents.
But as a person with this staff it really does have a cool factor, but the proccy nature of it means its destined as a trash or heroics staff. Consistency in progression is what wins in my book.

Jan 2nd 2010 10:09PM The column has been edited, but I think its still wrong and contradictory.
"...physical cannot effectively damage the Fanatics, and magic can not damage the Adherents. So your physical damage should be attacking the Fanatics, and spell damage should be attacking the Adherents."
If physical cannot damage fanatics, why would you put physical / melee on fanatics? Likewise if magic cannot damage adherents, why would they be on the adherents?
Patch 3.3 PTR: New Looking for Raid interface {WoW}
Oct 27th 2009 8:36AM One way to make cross-realm raid work is to change the way raid IDs function. Currently the raid ID is a uniques code shared among the participants and tracks the progress / state of the instance. But what if the raid ID was personalized to each player, such that it would track current progress through the dungeon. So if you started a raid pug and then broke up, each person would have their progress stored to them. If they got another group, and the new people had no raid lock, they would be able to continue through. If they had an incompatible lock, then they would be locked out. If you got back with some of the previous group, you would be able to continue, as you would all have the same progress. There would be no raid ID stealing as each member would have their progress saved to them, no one can go in and steal your instance, the instance state is saved to the individual. I guess getting back with the old group might be tricky, maybe something could be done in the interface to match up saved groups.
The Queue: Naptime {WoW}
Oct 23rd 2009 11:31AM Here is a question I've always had: "What exactly does Blizzard do on maintenance day? Its all very mysterious. It would seem that with today's technology, realm servers should be able to run 24/7 without a restart, especially at the scale WoW is rumoured to be run. We've had a couple weeks where there was no maintenance at all."
Ready Check: Anub'arak {WoW}
Oct 23rd 2009 11:00AM Question about leaching swarm, (a) does it leach 10% of your maximum health or (b) 10% of your health at the time each dot is applied? For example, if you had 10k health, that would mean 1k dmg per tick. However, if its 10% of your health at the time the dot is applied, then the first tick would be 1k, the second 0.9k, the third 0.8k and so on (for you mathies, the nth tick woud be = [beginning health]*0.9^n). The distinction is important. I only know this fight from a range DPS' perspective and I can only imagine what a healer must think when the entire raid looks like its dying.
The strat of keeping everyone at half health to minimize Anub's life stealing would only make sense if (b) was the case. But I was thinking that if that were true, then the math would tell me that it would be a long time before this ability alone will kill you. Ticks at really low health become diminishingly small, almost negligible.
Ahhh but then there is a minimum it will leach, 250 hp. So health at 2500 appears to be an optimal point where it heals Anub for the least. And then we layer on Penetrating Cold for 6k frost every 3 sec.; have two healers blanket HOT the raid. I think a holy priest has an ability to heal more when health is under 50% and so do druids with a rejuv glyph, that should be enough to heal through that ability and maintain everyone's health at the limit, check with your healers to find out how much their spells tick for. Its a game of numbers, you don't want any more raid healing you need to control it; so no random wild growths or circle of healing or chain heals or vampiric embrace unless ppl are really low. If you are seeing health bars moving a lot, then things are out of control. Have your health meters reading numbers instead of %.
I think all I am saying when it comes to raid healing phase 3, is that even though it is recommended to keep everyone at 50%, for those willing to stretch it and kill him faster, there is a relatively large buffer between 50% and 2500 hp as long as you can control Penetrating Cold. I am assuming there is no other source of damage to the raid. The weird thing is that the healing demands go down the lower you maintain everyone's health. If the phase 3 is lasting too long or healers are going oom, knowing there is a buffer may help.
Not sure how the ability make-up changes in heroic mode, but maybe pushing health levels lower there could also help.
Patch 3.3 PTR: New LFG interface {WoW}
Oct 22nd 2009 2:55PM Getting a little off-topic but I like the idea of a rating system. Keeping dungeons to a realm, you do get to know ppl and their reputations. If we open it up to other realms it gets harder to track who you pug with. I've had awesome experiences pugging (46k hp paladin tank, yes please) but also have had wipe fests and the odd piece of loot drama. A rating system like an e-bay thumbs-up, thumbs-down system either at the end of ea heroic would be an interesting change, or a voluntary send out of an in-game "rate-me" dialog. It says more about you as a player then how many bosses you've downed or which achievements you have accomplished (or dragged along in). It would certainly do wonders for enforcing good behaviour rather than allowing trolls and ninjas to wrap themselves up in a blanket of anonymity. Even better if you could see these ratings before you agree to the PuG.
Back on-topic, I'm sure someone will make an addon to look-up your fellow puggies and gear-score them if you are really that picky about it. These days its more likely you're playing with established players in alts. Its been months since I've seen anyone discuss strat in party chat. I think its a good change, you don't have to participate in it if you don't want to. It gears up people to be raid-worthy to the latest content which really goes to solve the problem of the trickling train of adequately geared players for the latest raid as they are successively rolled out. I got to bypass Naxx raiding and headed straight into Ulduar / TOC mostly on the back of heroic pugs.
The Queue: There's more than one way to skin a worgen {WoW}
Oct 19th 2009 4:32PM I had the same question, circling around Dalaran an extra 30 sec is ridiculous. I'd like a "direct flight" if that was at all possible. Does anyone have a record of which flight paths are more efficient if done by FP vs manual flying in a straight line? Some of them aren't too bad but others are too scenic when all you want is to get from A to B. I realize flight paths are there to show the grandeur of the places and showcase all the hard time spent creating it, but it would be nice to have the option.
Patch 3.3 PTR: Area-of-effect damage cap change {WoW}
Oct 9th 2009 2:22PM So this is a nerf. But the more interesting story is why it is being nerfed. Which leads to speculation... Maybe Ony is too easy to manage if you have massive AoE. Maybe they are designing an encounter in Icecrown and realized that this is an issue, so they are are pre-nerfing it to avoid the QQ that would happen if they did it later. Or maybe large scale PvP alla Wintergrasp is a little out of control if you have an army of moonkins chain-starfalling (wipe out an entire army in a 30yd radius and never have to target a single thing). The mind does wander.

QUICK SPIN: Adrian Peterson Arrested…
Posted by Scott Pashley in SPIN News & Views No Comments »
The all-world rusher who is coming back from a devastating knee injury was arrested in Houston after reportedly resisting arrest after an incident in a night club. Peterson has a clean record and this report comes as a real surprise. He isn't a thug or a Bengal or a Buccaneer, or a Lion so he's among the last people you'd expect to be locked up for resisting arrest. Aside from making stupid comments about millionaire NFL athlete's being subjected to modern day slavery Peterson is rarely in the news for negative reasons.
This is unlikely to impact Peterson's fantasy value. It's not going to result in a suspension – unless some really crazy details come out. Peterson insists that he will be ready for the start of the season, but all indications are that Toby Gerhart will carry more of the load early on as Peterson gradually ramps up to full speed and capacity.

Starting from scratch: New Clarion chef wants to bring a fresh menu to Craig
Friday, January 31, 2014
Since New York-based Jacobs Real Estate Advisors purchased the former Holiday Inn and turned it into a Clarion Inn & Suites, the new owners have been working to revamp the establishment.
One way they're doing that is by changing up the restaurant. Tim Richardson, their brand-new chef, is the face of that change.
Richardson, who studied at the Pennsylvania Le Cordon Bleu institute, has worked as a chef across Colorado and California.
He fondly remembers being a personal chef in Tahoe and San Diego as fulfilling a "dream job." But even the dream job wasn't enough to dissuade him from heading back to Colorado.
The native Ohioan considers the Centennial State his home. It was where he spent his summers and where he worked on and off throughout his career.
"It was always a dream of mine to live in Colorado," he said. "There was something about it that really drew me out here."
Zac Weiner, assistant director of hotels for Jacobs Real Estate Advisors, hired Richardson because he wanted to bring a creative mind in: someone who could develop a fresh and diverse, but still affordable, menu.
Weiner said Richardson has been described by staff as a "breath of fresh air."
"To succeed in this town, you need to be creative," Weiner said.
Richardson drove 20 hours straight from San Diego to Craig on Sunday. He landed right at a work meeting to reshape the menu.
First thing: Richardson got the kitchen ready to prepare from-scratch-only foods.
Weiner spent more than $1,500 on new pans and utensils alone, he said. Nothing on the menu would be a reheated item.
While maintaining reasonable prices, the food will be better and fresher, Weiner said.
"It's not a different price point, but different quality," he said.
However, while Richardson wants to bring new flavor to the community, he also intends to make food that appeals to Craig residents.
He plans to work with an "evolving menu" that changes with seasons and new ideas.
So far, Richardson has redone the menu, and it includes items such as pulled pork nachos, chipotle Caesar salad and blue cheese with bacon-stuffed chicken breast.
Richardson said it will take work to bring Craig back to the hotel to eat.
We want to "get their trust back," he said. "You have one bad experience, you lose a customer. You have two to three, you can lose a whole town."
Richardson is confident his kitchen will turn that around. They are reaching out with a Super Bowl party on Sunday and will show off their new food during the game.
"The biggest thing I'm looking forward to the next couple of weeks is giving back to the community," he said.

This is great news, that restaurant has been terrible for a long time now and I have not eaten there for many years, well, except for the hospital holiday parties...can't beat free food. In the photo he is cooking with wine, so it appears, and that talent may be the saving grace of the place. His challenge in this area, as it is with most of us who like to cook good food, is that the ingredients in Craig are substandard, you can only go so far with Kroger, Wal-mart and Sysco foods, which is the main supplier of the eating establishments here. What Craig really needs is a Whole Foods Market or equivalent, that would draw people from miles around who like to use real, fresh ingredients to cook with. I know of a vacant building that would be perfect for a quality, fresh food supplier like Whole Foods.
Anyway, I really hope it gets turned around, and, I will give it a try myself. It only takes once to slide either way, I hope to slide back every now and then.

We ate out there just a couple weeks ago and to say the least it was not a great experience,the food (steak) reached the table cold and then when sent back to the kitchen because of it they reheated the meat I think in the microwave and then it was so tough I couldn't even chew it. We were not comped on the meal at all. And I DID send the food back not eaten. Maybe the next meal will be a better experience. Welcome to Craig Tim I hope you move here is an enjoyable one..

I was going to get one this year at Homestead... but they are closed this year. Oh well, hopefully next year. I wonder if I could get Pete to sign it for me? |
I got mine from Van Wade and I got Van Wade from Peter Ruh. How neat is that? That was two years ago in June. Best hosta outing ever! Both plants are growing well for me. I understand Peter's wife Jean passed away earlier this year, I believe. Mark |

Hi, I have grown "Peter Ruh'for some time. One of the first acquisitions. It will perform best in lots of morning sun followed by bright light. The leaves will appear tranluscent w/ many colors appearing in layers. The coloring should overlap w/o discrete margins. In the right light, it will appear somewhat streaked. The colors in your plant now, are just the beginning, given the right amount of light. Consider placing it w/ 'Paul's Glory', 'Wheaton Blue' and 'Chesterland Gold'. You could skip 'Paul's Glory' if it competes to much for the "spotlight". However, the others will bring out the best qualities in Pete. Pete will also be the shorter and flatter of the plants listed. So, forefront. You may have "enticed" yourself into a "new" little garden of these cultivars, In which, you could get a few of Paul in there w/o distraction from the "spotlight". If you had a tree or structure of some sort you could put three of Paul, one Chester and a part of Pete on the south. On the north... two Wheaton's, one Chester, two Paul's and your biggest left over half of Ruh. Paul and Ruh will appear as totally different plants from north to the south exposure. All you have to do is walk around the tree to see them in a different "face". Later, |
Paul's Glory and his family grows well in my gardens. I like the idea of combining Peter Ruh with Wheaton Blue and Chesterland Gold and know where I can get them that are about the same size as Peter (but don't anyone tell Ken). Gesila |

It would look pretty bad for any Sports Minister to suggest that "unfeminine" girls should do "ballet, gymnastics, cheerleading and even roller-skating", but Helen Grant's comments are particularly bad given that she is also the Equalities Minister.

Biofilms: Even Stickier Than Suspected
Bacteria in common slime can evolve to become hardier, say biologists Steven Finkel and Alison Kraigsley.
Biofilms are everywhere — in dental plaque and ear canals, on contact lenses and in water pipelines — and the bacteria that make them get more resilient with age, finds a new study in FEMS Microbiology Letters.
Because bacteria in biofilms resist antibiotics, the study may have long-term implications for medical researchers seeking to develop better drugs and less infection-prone devices.
Biofilms are bacterial cities clinging to a surface. In addition to aiding infections, they can hamper industrial processes by clogging pipelines and gumming up machinery.
And as the study shows, biofilms may hold lessons for scholars of evolution.
Authors Steven Finkel and Alison Kraigsley of USC College found evidence of natural selection in a single-species bacterial biofilm. Finkel is associate professor of molecular biology. Kraigsley is a graduate student in Finkel's group.
"The bacteria that originally formed the biofilm are not the same as the bacteria that we harvest from that same biofilm later," Finkel said. "The mutants we find are more fit than the original founding strain."
A 2007 paper by Hansen et al. in the journal Science had found evidence of natural selection in bacterial biofilms, but only in response to competition between species.
The new study shows directly that bacteria in biofilms can evolve as a result of starvation or other external pressures.
"We demonstrate here for the first time that a single species of biofilm-forming bacteria can evolve in response to changing environmental conditions," the authors wrote.
Finkel and Kraigsley incubated biofilms of E. coli bacteria for as long as 33 days, representing potentially hundreds of generations of growth. They then removed bacteria from old biofilms and pitted them against bacteria from very young biofilms.
The goal was to see which group would become dominant through sheer numbers of offspring.
"We never observed one-day-old biofilm-harvested cells outcompeting older cells at any time point," the authors stated.
To guard against the possibility that the older populations might simply be more accustomed to the biofilm environment, rather than genetically different, the researchers placed the cells in a neutral culture for 20 generations before starting the competition.
The cells from the older biofilms still outgrew their competitors, suggesting that the advantage was rooted in their genes.
The microbes' ability to multiply through multiple generations very quickly makes them ideal model systems for the study of natural selection.
The biofilm experiment is a variation on the Finkel group's best-known work: their studies of how starvation of microbes in a closed environment leads to the emergence of a dominant type of cells known as GASP mutants, for Growth Advantage in Stationary Phase.
GASPers, as Finkel calls them, outcompete bacteria from younger cultures. The key is not the age of individual microbes but the age of the culture they come from: young offspring of GASPers exhibit the same dominance as their parents.
The study was published online Feb. 23.
Funding for the study came from the National Science Foundation and the U.S. Air Force Office of Scientific Research.

Oh no sireee, I am bloody awful, but shove some chardonnay down me and I think I'm Whitney.

@Izzy78 - That is correct and that is why people can no longer declare bankruptcy right as they get out of college in order to avoid paying debt right away.
Most of the time when people get out of college they are unemployed right away because they have spent their last four years on their studies and have simply not gotten a job with their degree yet.
This is why the normal thing to do was to declare bankruptcy on student loans so they did not have to pay thousands in debt right away.
However, the government determined this to be an unfair cop out and decided that no one can declare bankruptcy on their student loans, yet someone can declare bankruptcy for failing at running a business.
Although there are cracks in the system I feel like the bankruptcy courts are always reforming and changing for the better and becoming stiffer on people who take advantage of the system. I really wonder if besides student loans there are other such things that one cannot declare bankruptcy on?
