Dave Hentschel spent his entire career with the same company or the successors to that company, Cities Service Company. While his career started in the petroleum engineering area, it eventually expanded to almost every operating and service area of the company.
Hentschel received a B.S. in Petroleum Engineering from Louisiana State University in 1957. While a member of the U.S. Air Force, he spent a year at Oklahoma State University, receiving the equivalent of a B.S. in Meteorology in 1958.
After the acquisition of Cities by Occidental Petroleum in 1982, Hentschel was the chief negotiator of the sale of Citgo to the Southland Corporation. After running the domestic operation for Oxy for three years, Hentschel became the chairman and CEO of Occidental Oil and Gas Corporation in 1986, the worldwide oil and gas operation of the parent company. In 1987, he was elected to the Board of Occidental. He retired in 1993, but returned to the position of CEO of the oil and gas unit from 1997 to 1999, when he retired again.
Hentschel has served on the board of Nexen, a Canadian-based oil and gas company (previously Canadian Occidental Petroleum), since 1985. He was president and CEO of this company from 1995 to 1997.
Additionally, he currently serves on the board of Cimarex and the boards of the Luis Palau Evangelistic Association and In His Image. He previously served on the boards of Bank of Oklahoma and Saint Francis Hospital.
Along with his wife Clydella, Hentschel has been involved in many community activities including the United Way, Salvation Army, Day Center for the Homeless, First United Methodist Church, the American Diabetes Association, the Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation and others. In 1992 and 1993, Clydella and Dave served as co-chairs of the Tulsa Area United Way General Campaign and then of the Board.

Flexibility - the Crucial Factor for Network Printing (DIHK, Berlin)
When Berlin became once more the capital of Germany, the Association of German Chambers of Industry and Commerce (DIHK) was also going to move house from Bonn to Berlin. Taking residence in the newly built "Haus der Deutschen Wirtschaft", the DIHK decided in favor of a modern fiber optic network for the approximately 230 employees. The IT infrastructure of the DIHK should be based on a fiber-to-the-desk solution, which was to be implemented in three steps.

Nearly 82 million -- about one-third of the population below the age of 65 spent a portion of either 2002 or 2003 without health coverage.
Who was the eldest woman to ever give birth? That was a 67-year-old Romanian woman named Adriana Iliescu, a retired university professor. In 2005 she gave birth to two twin girls. While the vast majority of women would never plan to have children in their 60s, many women are continuing the recent trend of becoming pregnant later in life.
From 1981 to 2003, the birth rate of women aged 40-44 doubled. Women (and adults in general) typically have greater financial stability, the older they become. Thus, they generally focus on their careers, education, or other priorities, before they consider starting a family. However, health risks should be considered. By the time a woman reaches her late 30s, it is more challenging to fertilize her eggs. In fact, after a woman reaches 30-years-old, every year her chances of becoming pregnant decreases 3-5%, with the rate speeding up beginning at age 40.
Furthermore, after becoming pregnant, middle aged women suffer from increased health difficulties. The women themselves tend to have medical conditions, such as high blood pressure and diabetes, prior to becoming pregnant. Also, an increase in congenital abnormalities begins. Additionally, the rate of miscarriages increases also, being roughly twice as high for older women as for younger women. Finally, for mothers over 40-years-old, the change of having a premature baby skyrockets by 40%, while the need for a caesarean delivery becomes twice as high.
Older women can take certain steps to minimize pregnancy complications that result from their ages. Genetic counseling and testing are typically available for woman older than 35-years-old. This type of examination can be completely basic and risk-free to the baby, such as the triple screen test. However, other types of testing, such as ultrasound and for Down syndrome, include hazards to the pregnancy. In addition, the following steps can be taken to reduce the chance of difficulties during pregnancies later in life:
Avoid alcohol and cigarettes Begin an exercise program Take folic acid Address pre-existing medical problems Consume a healthy diet
With ideal and early prenatal care, and before the pregnancy if possible, midlife pregnancies can be as successful as those of women who are younger than 30-years-old. It is vital for older women to have an exceptional health insurance plan, and to talk about their pregnancy plans, with a health care provider. This will ensure that the optimum pregnancy results will occur.

Since this is the place for wishing, I'll submit mine:
Fortress America- No one but FFG could pull this one off.
Dark Tower- Not going to happen, but with cheap LCD screens they use on kid's toys, using one for a board game is not completely out of the question.
Survive!- Fun, easy game.
I figure since FFG already updated Heroquest for me (with Descent), brought back a beautiful version of Cosmic Encouter, and with unDune on the way, well...I can dream.

"And you look just like you do on film," the first girl says. "Which is a compliment. Because some people don't. Like, Heidi Klum comes into our store all the time—"
"She looks different," Patty says.
"She looks different," the first girl says, then adds, softly, dreamily, "You look exactly the same."
"Really?" Pattinson says, frowning. "People always say the opposite. What's your name, sorry?"
"My name's Eva," the girl says. "E-V-A."
"I always thought I could hide," he says. He poses for a couple of pictures with the girls. The wallpaper on Patty's cameraphone is a picture of Pattinson as Edward.
"Did you have that on there before?" Pattinson says. "That's hilarious."
Pattinson doesn't know what his first real post-Twilight project is going to be. When we ask him about Parts Per Billion, an indie drama he was supposed to star in with Dennis Hopper and Rosario Dawson, he says he doesn't know, that the start date kept moving—"That's the annoying thing about doing little films"—and sure enough, a couple of weeks after we talk, it is announced that he's dropping out of the movie to focus on prepping for the Twilight sequel, New Moon, about which he knows very little, because he's "never told shit about anything."
"I'm completely in the dark," he says. "No one will even give me the script."
They're keeping you in a box.
"Yes," Pattinson says. He mimes opening the lid of a coffin. "Shut up, Edward!"
He has a hard time even thinking of New Moon as a sequel, because it's so unlike the first book. "I don't know how they're going to make a movie out of it," he says, "because Twilight's a love story, and New Moon is just—Bella's manic-depressive throughout the entire book. There's very, very little happiness, and there's nothing teen-y about it."
This may be the best-case scenario, that the Twilight movies will get darker and Pattinson will have a chance to throw some real heat, performance-wise. Hardwicke says that back on the Twilight set, before the movie's franchise future was a sure thing, she and Pattinson "talked about a lot of other projects. He's obviously ridiculously photogenic, but he's also so talented and has so much insight. I see him creating stylized, odd, wild, fantastical characters, like what Johnny Depp does."
Which would be great. But the worst-case scenario is that after four vampire movies—or, depending on how they carve up the 754-page behemoth that is Breaking Dawn, the last book in the series, five—no one will ever take him seriously as a mortal. There's a chance that Twilight will go down as his 21 Jump Street, and there's a chance he'll be doomed to stalk the Twilight-convention circuit forever like some undead Mark Hamill, signing pictures of his 22-year-old self for an endless line of Pattys and Evas grown plump with age. We try to gently raise this issue by asking him if he's got a post-Twilight game plan. He talks about starting a production company, maybe putting out his musician friends' records. We note that he hasn't mentioned any goals that involve acting.
"I'm not massively concerned about doing lots of acting jobs," he says. "If it all just went, right now, I'd be like, 'All right. I don't really care.' That's probably a stupid thing to say. But I don't, really. I think it'd be much worse to do a load of stuff that's really bad. Because then you can't go into another career. If you've made an idiot out of yourself, you're never going to be taken seriously, as a lawyer or something, if you're, like, a joke actor. The only thing I want from anything is to not be embarrassed."
Still, we say. You didn't talk about your acting. We totally gave you the window to James Lipton it up. (Or to try to convince us that you're More Than Just the Sexy Vampire, we think but don't say.)
"I literally have nothing to say," he says. "So I don't think, Oh, I wish they'd asked me about my craft instead of my hair."
Is there anything you wish you'd gotten to talk about in this interview?
"Okay," he says. Deep breath. "I fucked Joe Jonas."
We knew it!
"I love him."
Maybe he's lying when he talks about the future, when he acts like he doesn't care. But maybe he really isn't massively concerned about what he's going to do. If you don't commit to a goal, you don't have to worry about what you're doing, or not doing, to make it come true. About what having your name on four or five vampire movies will do to keep you from getting there. About the choices you're making and the ones you're letting time and inertia and other people make for you. Maybe hanging back and reading about your life in the tabloids is less scary than committing, at 22, to something that might turn out to be beyond you. Or maybe he really does think about becoming a lawyer. Who knows.

OAKLAND, Calif. (AP) Oakland officials have agreed to continue supporting the city's gang injunctions.
In a 4-3 vote on Tuesday, the City Council decided not to end funding for a gang injunction currently in place in North Oakland. The council also agreed to continue funding the pursuit of another gang injunction in the city's Fruitvale district.
An Alameda County judge has yet to decide on that injunction.
The injunctions restrict the movement of alleged gang members. Supporters say they are another tool to keep neighborhoods safe.
Critics say they are a form of racial profiling.
The Oakland Tribune reports that councilmembers demanded that any new injunctions come before them for approval before they are filed.

A few days ago, I received the package in the mail. At the time, I just glanced at the tag and noticed that it was from Amazon, so I put it aside, since I was expecting boxes from them for the gifts I was going to give.
On Saturday morning, I began opening the packages and wrapping gifts...that is when I noticed that in the other boxes, I already had everything I ordered. I realized that this was probably the Secret Santa gift!! When I opened it up, I found a small ball.
Opening up the ball revealed a small, golden, limited edition Optimus Prime figure released back in 2006. Considering my collection of 60+ Optimus Prime figures, it was a risky gift choice, but the payoff is great! I didn't have it; risk is met with reward.
To my Secret Santa...I don't know who you are, but thanks! He has taken his spot on the shelf with the other great Optimus Primes through Transformers history. Happy holidays to all!

Filson makes the most durable weekend bag. The best part about this bag is that the longer you have it, the better it looks. Navy with a brown leather trim is très masculine, and the bag is equipped with a two-way brass zipper. It's great for the frequent traveler because it's water-repellent, has a storm flap, and has bridle-leather carrying handles. What more can you want in a duffle? …Interior end pockets? Oh, O.K., good, because it has those too.

Good morning!
Well, three years later and I finally up-potted my Chainfern - Woodwardia fimbriata.
The Mix:
The following two Threads show previous pictures of work that I've done with this wonderful fern. Al's 5-1-1 for ferns.....thumbs up! Giant Chainfern - Spring 2009 re-pot (pics) First, a before pic of the Chainfern in the old container:

Hello! I'm not sure if the barrels are more expensive. This was the lowest price I could find. I am not using Repti-Bark. I use Greenall brand Micro Bark, which is a very nice Fir bark product. I used less Dolomitic Lime because this is a fern, and I assumed it would prefer the acidic mix. Plus, I use Foliage Pro 9-3-6, a complete fertilizer. Thanks for following along! I appreciate it!
Josh |
Josh Thank you for taking time to answer...should have known about ferns preference for more acidic mix. I really appreciate few of the forum members posting pictorial of their repotting/prunning and so on. Easier to remember & hopefully understand than just reading (at least for me!) Rina |

Nice work on the fern my man, impressive as ever. I'm so freakin jealous of your bark every time I see a picure of it....BAH...Left Coasters get all the breaks!! Smart move on the flipped over pots too! Talk soon! PJ |
Hooo boy - with all that room, it's really going to put on some growth this year! Cool pics, Josh! Al |

Thank you, Gentlemen! ;-) Yessir, Al, we're going to see just how big this thing can get! I'll update, of course. PJ, we are indeed blessed with some fine bark, aren't we? hahaha ;-)

I am growing the same fern, but mine is like all dense. I don't know if I should thin it out? Yours has spaces between. It is bigger now then when I took this, but I do see some browning on the leaves. Thanks for the photos of the potting, step by step. |

My pleasure, Tropical! These ferns divide their own crowns as they grow, spreading out in different directions. Rina, about the difference in container sizes...if you look at the 8th pic,

Josh that is a big difference; you are giving it lots of room. It will have plenty of room for few offsprings. |

Evelyn Burgos knew she needed protection from a 28-year-old ex-boyfriend — a 250-pound mustached career criminal known on the street as "Radio."
Sensing that her murder was imminent, the Johnston woman turned to Rhode Island's court system.
"…where I live is very dark," the 40-year-old wrote on her application for protection from abuse, the court's name for a temporary restraining order. "I'm scared he may be waiting for me hiding someday, to hurt me, or that he may try to break in."
"I know him," Burgos wrote last summer on July 26, "I know … what he is capable of doing."
Daniel L. Rodriguez, ("Radio") had a history of criminal allegations against him at the time that Burgos wrote those words. In 2004, he was charged with first-degree murder in the shooting death of a 26-year-old Providence man; in 2007, he was charged with kidnapping a 22-year-old former girlfriend and holding a knife to her throat. But in 2013 he was free to stalk Burgos because witnesses hadn't cooperated with authorities, prosecutors say.
In August, two weeks after Burgos applied for a restraining order against Rodriguez, she was killed violently, much like she feared. And what actually took place was far worse. Armed with a .357 caliber revolver, Rodriguez shot and killed Burgos and her 25-year-old daughter Vanessa Perez in the presence of her two sons, 2 and 8, and her 3-year-old granddaughter.
Burgos was not the first domestic violence victim to anticipate her own murder and document her premonitions on forms filed with clerks in one of Rhode Island's courthouses.
Restraining-order applications, as well as no-contact orders based on criminal complaints, have foreshadowed the violent deaths of at least 11 Rhode Islanders since 2000 — including the stabbing deaths of two abusive men slain by fearful women in self-defense.
During this period, such orders, and the allegations of abuse that accompany them, preceded at least 20 percent of 55 domestic violence-related homicides involving men and women who had either lived together or engaged in romantic relationships.
But a restraining order does not guarantee the safety of an abuse victim.
"It's not a bulletproof vest," says Deborah DeBare, executive director of the Rhode Island Coalition Against Domestic Violence. "It's an order. That's what the advocates will make sure the victims understand."
Court orders do deter some batterers, but the papers serve another purpose: they document an escalation of domestic abuse in advance of lethal violence.
Mayra A. Cruz, terrified of her estranged boyfriend, hoped Rhode Island's Family Court system would provide what it describes as "protection from abuse."
The young Pawtucket mother put pen to paper on June 3, 2008; she accused her ex-boyfriend of breaking into her apartment more than once, of "choking," hitting and threatening her. On this particular morning, Juan L. Diaz had climbed through a bathroom window at 4 a.m. and forced her to have sex, the 26-year-old wrote.
"I didn't have" any "choice," wrote Cruz, who lived with her 6-year-old daughter in an apartment near Galego Court in Pawtucket.
She filed for a temporary restraining order in Family Court. Three days later on June 6, a sheriff reported — to the court — that he hadn't been able to serve the order on Diaz. A restraining order isn't valid until it is served.
On June 24, Cruz did not appear in court to follow up on the temporary invalid restraining order that the sheriff could not serve.
The very next day, on June 25, Cruz was dead and Diaz was charged with shooting her in the head.
Diaz has been convicted of second-degree murder in two trials, but the Rhode Island Supreme Court has overturned both verdicts because of legal problems in those proceedings.
Barbara Lombardi, in 2000, sought a restraining order, too. In the upper right-hand corner of the application was printed in bold type: "TEMPORARY ORDER / PROTECTION FROM ABUSE."
The Coventry woman accused her estranged husband of forcing her to engage in sexual relations with him that morning and of threatening "to destroy" her and her children.
Russell Arlia, she wrote, had told her that no one but a "blind and stupid person" would want her after "I get through with you."
Within 15 months, Lombardi was dead, a victim of Arlia's murder-suicide, which he carried out in her house during a standoff with Coventry police in March 2002.
Lucy Ponte, of Pawtucket, about five years before Lombardi petitioned the court, had foreshadowed her own death, telling the court in 1995 that she feared for her life, that her husband, Mario F. Ponte, was unstable. A year later, she was back living with him.
In summer 2012, a friend noticed bruises on her arms, and Ponte revealed that her husband had threatened her. Not long after that, in August, Ponte told the same friend that her husband had telephoned her 20 times at work that day.
The following day, the 54-year-old was dying in a hospital intensive care unit. Her husband had brutally beaten her and committed suicide in a barn at the Ferry Farm in Seekonk.
Amaralis Urena, of Providence, had two restraining orders served on Hector Taveras, a man she had dated for about a year. Then one day in 2001, she stabbed Taveras to death in an apartment that belonged to someone else at Pierce Manor on Grand Street.
She told the police she had stabbed Taveras because he was physically abusive and she feared going home with him that night. Investigators found a copy of a terminated restraining order in Taveras' pocket.
During her 2004 trial on a murder charge, defense witnesses testified that she suffered from posttraumatic stress disorder and battered women's syndrome. She was acquitted of the murder charge but convicted of manslaughter.
Law enforcement and judicial systems in Rhode Island have stepped up efforts to identify high-risk cases and take effective preventative action, but there's also room for improvement, according to Providence Superior Court Judge Susan McGuirl.
"I think there have been a lot of steps made," says McGuirl, "but there are still things we can do better."
A program in a community north of Boston has drawn national recognition for preventing domestic-violence-related homicides.
Organized by a domestic-violence crisis center in Amesbury, it began with a meeting of victim advocates, district attorneys, probation and parole officers and others in the system. Members set out to devise a system to identify potentially lethal cases.
A team analyzes cases and uses indicators established by Jacquelyn Campbell, a Johns Hopkins professor widely recognized as a leading expert on domestic homicide, to spot those high-risk cases.
Campbell studied domestic homicides in the 1980s and found that half of the women killed by their partners had sought help from the police or criminal justice system. She found other patterns within the cases and identified 20 factors of risk that include forced sex, threats to kill and choking.
The Amesbury group also recognized that the different components of the system were working in isolation from one another, which meant some of them didn't know everything they needed to know about the risks that a particular case presented.
After the team identified high-risk cases, judges began to wield some tough tools for controlling batterers.
One tool is a "dangerousness proceeding," a hearing where a judge can decide that it's necessary to lock up a batterer, including someone with no previous criminal record, because evidence at the hearing suggests that setting the person free would be too risky.
Another tool involves tracking convicted batterers. When they are released from prison, they are often put under GPS monitoring programs, which set up exclusion zones — essentially havens for abuse victims — and when they enter those zones, the police are immediately notified. This approach allows victims to live at home and stay out of shelters.
Prior to the Amesbury program, the community had seen a domestic violence-related death happen nearly every year from 1992 through 2002, according to a July story in The New Yorker magazine. Since 2005, none of the cases identified by the community's Domestic Violence High Risk Team has resulted in a homicide.
Different versions of the Amesbury program have sprung up in about a dozen other communities across Massachusetts.
"Domestic-violence homicides are the most predictable and therefore the most preventable of all homicides," says Toni K. Troop, communications director for the Massachusetts Coalition Against Domestic Violence.
Rhode Island, like Massachusetts, has criminal justice professionals trying to identify high-risk cases and head off lethal incidents of domestic violence.
The Critical Case Review Team — a public entity that has set out to do the job on a statewide level — includes prosecutors, probation and correction officials, representatives of reentry services, pretrial services, victim services and local police departments.
The team has been in existence since the early 2000s. But in 2013, some of its members became interested in Campbell's research and the related work going on in Massachusetts, says Rachel Orsinger, a victim advocate with a law degree who serves on the team.
Orsinger says at least 10 members of the panel traveled north to learn techniques, methods and risk indicators from the Amesbury program.
The legislature would need to pass new laws before Rhode Island can use dangerousness hearings and GPS monitoring in the same way that those methods have been used in Massachusetts, says Orsinger, who also serves as a legislative liaison for the Rhode Island Coalition Against Domestic Violence.
If electronic monitoring can successfully confine criminals to their homes, it should be able to keep them away from the homes of battering victims, says Jami Ouellette, a local supporter for GPS monitoring in Rhode Island. Ouellette's sister Stacie DeSantis-Dorego, of Johnston, was murdered in her home and savagely dismembered with a power saw in 2012.
At the time, the woman's killer, Donald Greenslit, who fathered two of her children, was barred from having any contact with the victim.
"It could have been prevented if he couldn't have come back to the house," Ouellette says. "I can't believe that's not doable."
Judge McGuirl says she hasn't imposed electronic monitoring as a condition of bail. She's open to considering it during certain situations at sentencing, but she believes legislation may be necessary to make regular use of it.
Still, even without tools such as GPS monitoring, there are types of assistance possible in some high-risk cases, says Orsinger, who cites a police department's close monitoring of someone's house as an example.
Rhode Island's Critical Case Review Team meets every six weeks and focuses on six to as many as 15 cases at a time, says Shelley Cortese, a representative of the Rhode Island Department of Correction.
"I feel like the program is effective," says Cortese. "I think we're helping. We know that working collaboratively and working from a multidisciplinary model and doing a danger assessment is more likely to decrease risk."
Cortese and another professional on the team, Assistant Attorney General Daniel Guglielmo, caution that there is no single "magic bullet" for addressing domestic violence.
Guglielmo, who heads up the attorney general's domestic violence unit, says that because domestic violence cases are different, the victims react very differently. "If you're the victim of a robbery you don't get love letters from the guy who punched you in the face. But in domestic violence you can get love letters from the guy who raped you a week before. You share children in common. You could be economically dependent. You could have your own children who want their daddy home. All of that makes domestic violence very, very different."
McGuirl took a trip to Baltimore and learned about the risk factors for domestic violence-related murders soon after she was put in charge of the domestic court calendar about two years ago.
Since she has commanded the domestic violence calendar, the judge has taken a hard line on violations of restraining orders and no-contact orders. She jails violators immediately.
"My position is that if there is a violation of a no-contact order, it requires some kind of a jail/confinement sentence," she says.
DeBare, of the Coalition Against Domestic Violence, says there are many things that the system is doing right, but resources remain a major problem.
The funding for domestic violence victim advocates who operate in the courts — helping victims apply for restraining orders and setting up safety plans — has been cut over the past five years.
Since 2007, state funding of domestic violence victim advocates in the courts has decreased from $425,000 annually, at one point falling as low as $129,000. The program is funded now at $229,000.
Today problems including archaic information systems, such as the paperbound files that bear the handwritten complaints of victims, stifle the timely flow of information among victim advocates, police, probation authorities and sheriffs who serve restraining orders.
When a potentially high-risk case does hit the radar, assembling all of the information can take days when it should happen with the push of a button, says DeBare.
"It's one of these totally antiquated systems," she says.
Assistant Attorney General Stacey Veroni talked about the threats that the state's most dangerous batterers pose to victims after Daniel L. Rodriguez was given two consecutive life prison terms, plus 50 years, earlier this month for killing Evelyn Burgos and her daughter.
"These offenders know where they live," she says. "They know where their family lives. They know where their friends live. They know where they work.
"…. It is dangerous, and you have to plan for your safety when you are leaving one of these relationships," she continued. "… Evelyn Burgos did the right thing. She went to get a restraining order, and then horribly, tragically, her greatest fears came true."
To advocates against domestic violence, Burgos' story, and the stories of other women killed by domestic violence, illustrate the need to focus on measures to prevent not just the murders that are foreshadowed but also the ones that catch everybody by surprise.

You're leaving Wedding Paper Divas to see the Deal of the Day at our parent site, Tiny Prints.
You won't be able to dismiss this by usual means (escape or click button), but you can close it programatically based on user choices or actions.
"We used this card for hotel accommodations for my daughter's wedding. We had 5 hotels and their phone numbers listed, along with some other infomation. I was concerned that the print would be too small to read, but that wasn't a problem at all. It was nice to have an enclosure card that could be used for directions or hotels."
"On this enclosure card I had information where the reception was being held at, when, where, what time. I also put infomration about a block of hotel rooms we had reserved for our guests, if they needed to stay over night or if they were coming from out of town for the wedding. This card has lots of space to put a lot of text! It was very easy to personalize and of course the raised lettering was fablous and looked amazing! I love the little detail of the swirl on the top of the card, it added a little touch and plus it matched the rest of the wedding invite!"
"I bought the whole Oval Opulence set and LOVE it! A little pricey and does not qualify for any discounts because it is William Arthur but overall totally worth it. The printing is a bit raised which gives it a nice texture and the paper is a perfect thickness. I will be adding some colored bakers twine and a colored tag to give it a little more character. Would definitely recommend!"
"I couldn't be happier with my invitation suite. I cried when I viewed them!! They are exactly what I what I wanted to represent our classic/traditional/vintage spring wedding. This invitation was not available as a sample, and was planning to go with one I had received but I decided to take a chance because I love the design. If you are interested in the simple enchantment I would recommend ordering another William Arthur thermography to get an idea of the quality. You won't be disappointed! The customer service was great and helped me with fitting everything on the the Directions card and with a couple rounds of proofing the response card. Cecilia was always prompt and I can't believe ordering/proofing an invitation could be so easy! I can't wait to mail these out!!!"
"We used the direction card for both giving the address and phone number but also for giving info about our website and places guest could stay. We love the way this insert card added to our overall invite!"

Ashlee Simspson And Pete Wentz Welcome Baby Bronx Mowgli
After much labor speculation, then confirmation yesterday…Ashlee Simpson finally popped. She gave birth to a baby boy last night! Unfortunately, Ashlee and hubby Pete Wentz have been reading their copy of Ridiculous Celebrity Baby Names, and have saddled the little one with "Bronx Mowgli". Yeah, Mowgli. Like in The Jungle Book. Sigh. Bronx weighed in at 7 pounds, 11 ounces. Welcome to the world, little guy.

EDM is not a mountain, EDM is pangaea. Electronic dance music is proof that planet Earth is indeed one nation under a groove, a unified land mass brought together by humans inherent desire to dance. Thus, in two moments – foremost, the announcement of a Beatport Top 20 dance program for Clear Channel – and as well social media aggregation tool JustGo's amended "Top 10 DJs" countdown for 2013, something is wrong. If SFX's future-forward "electronic music culture (EMC)" is going to ultimately be showcased with antiquated lists, countdowns and top-down ratings systems, then what exactly is the point of this dance "revolution" than to be a race to the middle defined by classic standards. If this is a culture defined by the future, then why aren't there measures that use truly progressive standards that advocate for the idea that up is down, left is right and that difference is the norm?
London-based social media startup JustGo recently released their list of the top 100 DJs of 2013. Using analytical data from Facebook, Twitter, SoundCloud, and YouTube alongside piracy platform Topple Track, their results show tremendous depth and clearly emphasize the importance of digital displays of fandom in the marketplace. Similar to DJ Mag's much maligned list, Hardwell is #1. However, dissimilar, Armin Van Buuren and Tiësto are replaced in the top 10 with Calvin Harris and Swedish House Mafia. Certainly, the list showcases the gradual evolution occurring as traditional EDM powerhouse DJs begin to slide into legend status, while new superstars assume the position of being relevant showcases of what's hot right now. However, these numbers freeze definitions by measures of time and place, which, in a world wherein one-in-four people (2.55 billion) globally are using social media, certainly could be rendered almost useless within a year's time. As more artists flood into electronic music culture and the singles-driven market meets up with major labels looking for quick money makers in a depressed market for albums, it's easily possible for a top 100 list to simply reflect who has the most money to advertise to a market of new fans looking to hop on the latest trend. Insofar as building a market for sustainability, looking at a "Top 10″ in this case is basically patting major labels on the back for cashing in and staying alive during what is arguably the music industry's worst depression ever. If that seems cool to you, then good. But if looking at an era ripe with completely new possibilities, then this is certainly troublesome.
The same goes for SFX's Beatport Top 20 show on Clear Channel. Again, if you're into the same old thing, then let's do this. It's a great idea, and certainly increases the potential exposure to EDM. However, there's something to be said for the idea that these songs are best heard in DJ sets, and in turning them into pop songs in pop countdowns certainly limits their best (and possibly most logical) potential. Imagine a show instead wherein there's a DJ who hosts who spins the top 20 songs in a set alongside a bunch of other (possibly classic, or even moreso, less familiar yet still current) material. In reflecting that dance's revolutionary energy expands things from top-down to an all-inclusive model, steps can be taken to push culture ahead in a similar manner. There's something great about SFX's desire to make a wholesale push for EDM into the world's mainstream commercial and marketing environment, but in leaning in instead of being a willful interrupting presence from the start, it shows a seeming adoption of a principal of gradual motion in a world accelerating at an increasingly rapid pace.
There will certainly come a point (probably within the next 18 months) where a six-year-old producer from China will release a free EP on SoundCloud that will accidentally end up in the hands of a writer on this site, to only later be dropped in its entirety by Diplo on his BBC Radio 1 program, then passed along to Pete Tong at iHeartRadio and then remixed into a song rapped over by Jay Z and Kanye West with the original going global number one when vocals are recorded for it by Psy and G-Dragon. At the end of the year, this six-year-old will have minimal social media presence, and would have outsmarted Beatport, too, but ultimately have 302 million Chinese Yuan (50 million dollars) in the bank and never make another track as long as he lives. this being the case, he'll never get heard on Clear Channel, and though having one of the most amazing years ever in the history of music, wouldn't likely be a top 10 DJ on any chart anywhere.
The Earth is flat. Things have fallen apart. Though it's nice that we're reflecting that things are changed, we're still not reflecting that everything is literally entirely different than it was before. Without that being the case, EDM will be a day late and a dollar richer, but ultimately have a shorter life span on top of popular culture.

In "Amazing Grace," a Tapestry of Faith program
As participants enter, greet them. If you have newcomers, greet them warmly and be sure they know others in the room. Give them nametags if others have them. Ask newcomers and old timers alike to look at the Conundrum Corner, but do not say anything more about it. In answer to any questions about it, say you will be talking about it later.
If playing "Amazing Grace," stop the music, or reduce the volume to a very low background level.
Lead the group in the day's opening rituals—a chalice lighting, a moment of focusing silence, and a moment of sharing.
Light the chalice, or let a youth do so, and speak these words (asking the group to join you if you have posted them):
May this light help us to see ourselves as others do.
Ask the group to be silent for a moment as they reflect on the opening words and settle in for the session. End the silence by saying, "blessed be," or other appropriate words.
Point out the mirror in the Conundrum Corner and ask youth why they think it is there. Accept some guesses, then say that its purpose is to help the youth decide which is their best side: left or right. Comment that many people like to have their picture taken from the right or left side, because they think that shows their better side. Ask the youth to show by raising their hands which is their best side. How many think their left side is? How many think the right? Say that anybody who is unsure can use the mirror after the session to find out.
Extinguish the chalice without ceremony and move the chalice table aside as necessary to allow movement in the room.

So mean! 'Reader's Digest' conducted a nationwide poll of the '100 Most Trusted People In America,' and Kristen received the lowest number of votes! Are you outraged over this major insult to Kristen?
Although Kristen Stewart has made some mistakes, she has taken full responsibility for them and doesn't deserve this kind of diss. After the 23-year-old actress was photographed in the arms of married director Rupert Sanders, she publicly apologized to Robert Pattinson and has continued to work hard to repair her relationship with him and earn his trust back!
Kristen Stewart Voted 'Least Trusted Movie Star In America'
Reader's Digest made a list of over 200 American opinion shapers, leaders and headline makers from 15 influential professions and gave it to more than 1,000 Americans. The voters were asked to rank each name by how trustworthy they believed the person to be.
Reader's Digest defined trustworthy as, "integrity and character, exceptional talent, drive to personal excellence, internal moral compass, message, honesty and leadership."
Although Kristen is one of Hollywood's highest paid actresses, she came in at the very bottom of the vote — and we're furious about it! The actress received the lowest score (24%) of all movie stars on the list, giving her the title of "Least Trusted Movie Star in America." We can't believe that people would vote Kristen so low on the list!
Tom Cruise scraped by with 27%, making him the least trusted male star in America. Tom Hanks and Sandra Bullock topped the list, both coming in at 65% and 63% respectively. Popular actors Denzel Washington and Meryl Streep weren't far behind with 62% and 61%.
Will Kristen Earn America's Trust Back?
Although Kristen was caught in the middle of a cheating scandal last July, she took full responsibility for her actions and has been working very hard to repair her relationship with Rob. If Rob can trust Kristen again, America should too!
HollywoodLifers, do YOU think Kristen is untrustworthy? Vote below!

Pliz i trust her 100%, she owned up to her mistake she could have simply denied those photos and said they were Photoshopped.She is the best dressed celebrity, one of the top 100 beautiful people, was highest paid. Besides until you have been hated you haven't lived. BTW who F****n reads Reader's digest anyway
Posted at 3:22 PM on May 8, 2013
@senzen Lots of people read Reader's Digest that's why they've been in business for years and sure, go ahead and get behind someone who only confessed to her mistakes once she was caught. But she did apologize and the people who matter to her forgave her and that's all that really matters. It has been a year so it is time to move on. Also, other things were on the poll that people doesn't think she lives up to not just trust. But I'm sure Kristen doesn't care.
Posted at 3:04 PM on May 8, 2013
Kristen's only on the list because whoever did the list put her on the list and she's the last in all the actresses anyone would trust. She came in last because no one trust her, her acting isn't all that great and because she doesn't live up to any of the other stuff that was on the list. Also, the poll wasn't even about her. HL made it about her to start drama among her fans and her haters and look at that it worked.
Posted at 3:00 PM on May 8, 2013
Honestly I don't think fans will care whatever the result on the poll. I think what they care is how she can move on after the big mistake she make, we may trust her or not it will be up to the person who will she end up with. And besides placing her name on that list make us read and look to see the article for ourselves, and it makes headlines.
Posted at 2:43 PM on May 8, 2013
@ everyone…….per poll, "kristen received the lowest trust score among the female movie stars" polled. they polled 200 people and kristen was NOT listed in the top 100 at all. #100 on the trust list was shepard smith of the fox report, #99 was paul krugman of the new york times, #98 was maureen dowd of the nyt…..

I feel like it time for Robert Pattinson put up or cut bait ,he knows if he wants to have a Life Time Relationship with Kristen Stewart and every body always getting on Kristen Stewart about how she is treating Mr.Pattinson but I think it about time that people should started ask if he playing games with Kristen Stewart and I would like to know why do he just sit back and let people Talk about his Girlfriend and not say a single words ,I also think that he like to keep Kriste Stewart on the side and have all the other women on the another side have fun with and the world just sit bye and don't say a thing about it ,and if that was Kristen Stewart they would be calling her all kind of names. So I say to Mr.Pattinson be a Real MAN and not a Boy .I say that because he Knows if he is going to Marry Kristen Stewart .

I agree with you on that L, Robert Pattinson should man up to defend Kristen or dumped her. He haven't shown anything emotions in the photos taken with them together that he (Robert) still like/love Kristen it's the media who place words on their action. And to think after the Twilight movie franchise we all know that they will later move on separate ways. He's playing the good guy in everybody's/fans eye, he is playing the guy who was famously cheated by Kristen (as if they were married). I think he is the key in all of this guessing game.

What about Rob? He has been seeing Katy Perry for the last week and who knows what they were up to. After all, she did tell Kristen that she wanted to go out with Rob. How did Angeline Jolie rate? Don't forget, she literally stole Brad Pitt from his wife and that was not the first time. I am amazed at how nasty people have become in this country. What else will these haters do to her?

Like I previously stated, if you sign your life up for stardom, there are certain consequences. Press and paparazzi are nothing new, there are accounts of Elizabeth Taylor and Montgomery Clift dealing with worse than these stars deal with over fifty years ago. In fact, there are laws now PROTECTING celebrities. It was Kristen's own mistake to cheat in public. Had she been in her own home, or somewhere secluded, she never would have been caught, and if she wanted to live an anonymous life she should have become a teacher or something.
As for the steps she has taken to redeem herself, aside from the apology, all of the steps that have benefitted her were made by Rob it seems. But I never said that she didnt show character, something that should be highly regarded in cases like this. The fact that she can hold her head up shows alot of courage and she should be respected and applauded for that. But courage does not make someone trustworthy, regardless of how many ways you turn it. Being honest and a good, moral person makes you trustworthy. Throughout her career, she has failed to show those traits.

Does the media just keep bringing up year old news on Kristen Stewart because they can't find anything else mean to print about her? I've never seen the press hound any other celebrity for this long about past transgressions. I think they just try to punish her because she doesn't want to play their games. The way they hound her, I don't blame her for not smiling and making nice all the time.

I think she is responsible enough to acknowledge her mistake, and taking little step to get her life back. If she is really the worst and irresponsible she would be now leaving with that director, I think she learned her lesson and is trying to move on. With that she deserved a second chance same with young women in her age who is trying to get back on track, she is a good example for them. A mistake was made in it will be a mistake that everyone will be talking about and condemned her for the rest of her life, but it didn't stop her to change and continue to move on making things right. It's still a long way to go for her, I admire her for that.

How many people took the survey? This is a ridiculous survey and article. There are 350 million people in America. This was not a vote against Kstew, just a survey on trust worthiness of many stars. None of us know anything about these people except what is reported. The harm these things cause is terrible. In any case, I am sure Kristen and Tom Cruise are crying about this all the way to the bank. It is amazing the depths of meanness in people who can spew hatred when they are anonymous.

Jennifer Strande, MD, PhD researches the role of thrombin and its receptors in the inflammation and fibrosis that occurs in the heart after ischemic events
Heart disease is the number one cause of death in Wisconsin, accounting for more than 16,000 deaths annually, or 35 percent of all deaths in the state. The considerable disability and mortality of the heart disease puts emotional and financial stress on individuals and their families. Rates of obesity, hypertension, and hypercholesterolemia are on the rise in Wisconsin and these cardiovascular risks are affecting Wisconsin residents at an even younger age. While reducing these risks using preventive strategies is an important strategy to combat heart disease, we still need new treatment strategies for prevention of the adverse effects of heart disease.
The clotting pathway culminates in the formation of thrombin, which is best known for acting on its cellular receptors to cause platelet aggregation and thrombosis. One of the primary treatments strategies for patients with coronary artery disease is to acutely stop this process, in the condition of acute myocardial infarction, or to chronically inhibit this process to prevent recurrent heart attacks.
Thrombin also acts through its receptors on other cell types and organs such as liver, lung and kidney to cause other effects such as inflammation and fibrosis. Jennifer Strande, MD, PhD, Assistant Professor in the Division of Cardiovascular Medicine and her laboratory are studying the role of thrombin and its receptors in the inflammation and fibrosis that occurs in the heart after ischemic events. Inflammation and fibrosis contribute to left ventricular remodeling and eventually cardiomyopathy.
Dr. Strande has shown that in rats treated with either direct thrombin inhibitors or thrombin receptor antagonist, the heart is protected against ischemia by protecting it from the damaging effects of free radicals and inflammation. Furthermore, she has shown that in long term studies, thrombin receptor antagonist also limits cardiac fibrosis and protects the heart from adverse remodeling after myocardial infarction.
As a fellowship-trained cardiologist, Dr. Strande brings a unique perspective and skillset to the Medical College of Wisconsin. As a physician, she sees first-hand how heart damage resulting from heart attacks affects the mental and physical well-being of patients and their families. By recognizing the gaps medical therapy for people affected by heart attacks and heart failure, she can identify new targets for potential therapies. She also has the basic research training to perform the necessary basic and translations research studies needed to advance these new potential therapies which may have a major impact on keeping patients with cardiovascular disease feeling better.

Hi: Strange question here...A neighbor, knowing I was looking for new cookware to break in my remodeled kitchen, just gave me her beautiful All Clad Stainless Pasta Pentola. (She has arthritis, and has never used this big boy.) I wouldn't spend money like that on a pasta pot, but there it is on my counter. My weird question is--can you actually prepare pasta in this pot. I read that you aren't supposed to use high heat with AC stainless, but then how can you prepare pasta w/o boiling water. I'm hoping I've got my 'facts' all wrong. Thanks |
Follow-Up Postings:
I've purchased and returned a number of tea kettles that have manuals requiring use of "medium heat only". This admonition for a metal device that has no purpose other than boiling water. In my continuing search since those returns I have yet to find ANY tea-kettle that has a tag that says otherwise. IMHO this is liability-driven nonsense. Perhaps in the future we will be unable to purchase stoves with "high" settings for the burners. I strongly suspect you're dealing with liability-avoidance labelling and nothing more. I'm willing to be educated, but this sounds like nonsense to me. I have several all-clad pans. I boil water on high with them all the time. I wonder...should I attach a 3-paragraph disclaimer to this post? |
I believe many of the cookwares say "med heat" today. I am not sure why. I have some All Clad pieces and yes I do turn them on high for boiling water. Generally after a rapid boils starts, food added, boil returns, I do turn it down some and the rapid boil continues. |
Thanks to both of you. I hadn't thought about the liability issue, and that does help this silly admonition not to use a super macho pot like an AC over high heat. I'm glad to know that you've both used your AC with high heat. I've been fantasizing about making a bolognese tonight--first meal in my newly remodeled kitchen after 9 months of microwaving. I'm ready, now--thanks. |
As long as there is water in the pot, you will not damage your AC though it may discolor a bit. Use some Bar Keeper's Friend to keep it nice and shiny. |
It's like that 100% cotton shirt, with out interfacing or lining that says "dry clean only!"... Nonsense! And.....what did you pay for the pot??? Use it!! Enjoy!! Linda C |
I'll get the Bar Keeper's Friend. And thanks re the mention of not boiling the pot dry (I've been known to do that). And, Linda, I got the pot for a great price--free! My neighbor had it, and never used it. I've promised to make her some killer pasta dinners in it! |
I think the high heat discoloring it is probably something they have gotten complaints about, so they tell people not to do it. I say bullhocky. I use all of my pans for high heat if I want to, and the rainbow colors don't bother me at all. |
Somewhere in the discussion should be the question of warping a pan. I've been told that people who take a hot pan & put it in cooler dishwater warp their pans. A saleslady said that you were suppose to put vegetables in the pot at room temperature, though not sure if it was not to warp a pan. The question remains, can you put ice cold tap water in the pan the set a roaring fire on "high" under it, & still not damage or warp the multi-layer clad pan? |
Absolutely....if you can't I don't want that pan!! Why would anyone care if a pan discolors when used as it was intended? I would not be happy that it did....but because it might wouldn't keep me from putting it on high heat or starting something with cold water. What a pain it would be to have to "start" a pot of water on low... |
Oh my gaud! I made bolognese at Christmas. It was absolutely awesome! Enjoy your big pot! |
I bring the water to a boil at just under my stove's highest heat, because somewhere, sometime, I also heard not to use the highest heat.(That seems to be what discolors stainless.) It boils plenty fast anyway. It's the temperature they are talking about, not the boiling. I've called the all clad cust svc # 800-255-2523 several times. They were always great to deal with. They were the ones who told me about Bar Keepers Friend. It is a good friend, takes away anything stuck or discolored. Things do stick if the pan is not hot enough ( let it get hot on a med or a med hi heat) when you are sauteeing, usually it will release on its own. Get the pan hot, then add the oil, when it shimmers add the meat. |
I actually did call All-Clad and asked about that (among other questions). They said OK to bring to boil on high heat but then need to turn down to medium to avoid discoloration. |
I've been using All Clad for 20 years. Both the LTD and stainless lines. Yes, you can boil water in them. You can also take them from the rangetop directly into the oven. I've done this on many occassions over the years. Sometimes with the oven as high as 500 degrees. No damage has occured. This is heavy duty top of the line stuff. Don't be afraid to use it. Enjoy. |
