Planning hearing held on St. Francois Xavier condo development
White Horse Plains Planning District's four board members heard presentations for and against a proposed 45-unit condominium project in St. Francois Xavier at a public hearing on April 10.
The members have to vote on whether or not they approve the RM of St. Francois Xavier's request to have the former Medicine Rock Café property rezoned from commercial central to residential multiple family use.
The SFX councillors voted 3-2 in favour of passing the second reading of the zoning bylaw amendment on Jan. 15. But before they can give the amendment a third and final reading, the planning board is required to hold a public hearing and then vote.
Planning board chairperson Yvonne Wood said about 50 people attended the hearing.
"The board's purpose is to hear people," she said.
St. Francois Xavier resident Dwayne Clark was one of those appearing in opposition to the zoning amendment. He and his family run a bed and breakfast out of their home near the Medicine Rock Café property owned by Norm and Peggy Van Eslander.
He said his main objection is that the proposed development contravenes the municipality's secondary plan passed in 2011 to govern future development.
"Development is supposed to tie into the municipal road network," he said.
While the condo project couldn't proceed without having the Ministry of Infrastructure and Transportation review the proposal as part of the development agreement, Clark believes allowing vehicles owned by condo residents to use a single access to PTH 26 will be dangerous.
He said the community's elementary school, daycare and community hall are located close by, and they generate more vehicle traffic.
He also pointed out that the rezoning would eliminate commercial land within the village.
Wood said she and the other planning board members requested information on the secondary plan to help them understand the implications of the zoning bylaw amendment.
"It's not black and white," she said.
The board is meeting again on April 17, but it's possible that they might defer a vote on the amendment. In the case of a split vote, the amendment will be approved, and the planning board's decision can't be appealed.

Chanteuse and actress Miranda Cosgrove pied-pipers her adoring droves of devoted fans with her electrifying and family-friendly brand of pop. The breakout star of Nickelodeon's iCarly, Cosgrove has been a seasoned showbiz pro since before her baby teeth could crawl and has compiled a songbook featuring singles such as "Dancing Crazy" and the recently released "High Maintenance."

Upon entering the Count Basie Theatre, guests might feel as though they've slipped through a crack in time and ended up in the early 1900s. Opulent marble staircases and gold details grab the eyes of visitors, recalling the decadence of Hollywood's history and gently pulling them to the auditorium. There, the acoustically pleasing construction wins out as sound spreads and funnels through a sunburst dome embellished with a dangling chandelier. Since opening in 1926, the Count Basie has earned numerous accolades, including a nod from Pollstar magazine, who listed it as one of the Top 100 Worldwide Theatre Venues.
Uptown Playaround is a comprehensive play, party, and enrichment center designed for kids ages 0 to 10, offering mirthful minors all the play amenities a candy-cane dreamer could conjure, from life-sized playhouses to multi-level jungle gyms and cushioned toddler crawling zones. The $45 gift card is equivalent to Uptown's five-entry pass, but it can be used toward drinks and snacks, or the delivery of pizza to your child's recreational runaround. The gift card is also valid for a jam-packed smorgasbord of active and educational classes throughout the day and week, including gymnastics, story time, yoga classes, and portfolio diversification. On-the-move moms can take a respite with the free WiFi and cable TV in the parent's lounge, and Groupon purchasers can also apply their gift card toward a private party for their tike and his entourage of cheerful cherubs.
In support of her high-decibel new album, Rihanna kicks off her hotly anticipated LOUD tour with emphatic gusto and a sizzling roster of special guests. Like an art show at a sundae bar, the LOUD tour floods the senses, enchanting audiences with lavishly designed sets, myriad costume changes, move-busting dancers, and Rihanna's songbook of Grammy magnets. Crooner Cee Lo Green augments the songful offerings with his own vocal talents, and Roc Nation rapper and rhythm scientist J. Cole further helps resuscitate ear drums traumatized by the outside world's blaring car horns and shrill howler monkeys.
The Tony Award-winning McCarter Theatre produces a bevy of captivating plays each year, often staging incendiary interpretations of traditional works and contemporary classics. This year's production of A Christmas Carol marks the McCarter's 30th incarnation of Dickinson's tale since its introduction to the theatre's season in 1980. The production will be performed in the 75-year-old, recently restored Matthews Theatre auditorium. Director Michael Unger gifts audiences with a heartfelt tale of Ebenezer's redemption guaranteed to cure mild to moderate cases of Scroogedom and Santaclaustrophobia.
Inside a vibrantly lit ballroom, the names of two newlyweds glow in big, cursive letters on the dance floor. The venue, an expansive space with arched ceilings and ornate chandeliers, is no doubt a popular spot for wedding ceremonies, but Majestic Events' team has gone above and beyond to make the space unique to the bride and groom.
This quest to personalize each event is what fuels the decisions of Majestic Events' photographers, videographers, DJs, emcees, and lighting technicians. Their services include live music, photography, and lighting design and were awarded WeddingWire?s Bride?s Choice award in 2011, 2012, and 2013.


text: shares of numbers of firms with shares of business receipts for women-owned businesses. The marketplace ratios were then compared with the federal contracting disparity ratios. Women-owned small businesses were underrepresented in the private market as well, but not as much as in the government market, a finding that CAWBO believes supports the conclusion that capable women-owned small businesses are not being well used in federal contracting. This and the other analyses summarized in the CAWBO document indicate the hard work that the analysts put into the study. The analyses would be more useful and convincing if the detailed results were provided, as was done in the Urban Institute meta-analysis. Our recommendations regarding the CAWBO study and the development of disparity ratios to respond to the SBA's congressional mandate are presented in Chapter 6.

Sony Corp. said Tuesday that it is reorganizing the structure of its board to increase the effectiveness of its corporate governance. The consumer-electronics and entertainment giant also said its chairman of the board, Norio Ohga, is stepping down because of health concerns following a collapse last year and will become honorary chairman. Chief Executive Nobuyuki Idei will replace Mr. Ohga as chairman. The changes take effect Thursday. Mr. Ohga served as Sony's president from 1982 to 1995. He collapsed with a brain hemorrhage last year while conducting an orchestra at a music festival in China but has since recovered and is back at work. Mr. Ohga has held a largely ceremonial post for the past 2 years, while Mr. Idei and Sony President Kunitake Ando have been in charge of Sony's day-to-day operations. (Dow Jones)

Introduction of the ASRock Z97X Killer
The other day, we got a chance to check out the brand new Devils Canyon processor from Intel, the i7-4790K. Being the new top 1150 LGA processor from the company, it has, of course, made its way into our testbed to replace our much loved i7-4770K that has served us extremely well since its introduction. The first board that will be making use of the new processor will be the ASRock Z97X Killer, which was the motherboard we used in our initial review of the processor.
While the Z97 chipset and the i7-4790K hasn't blown us away due to the fact that it hasn't brought a ton of new features or performance to the table, the fact that the motherboards and the processor hit at a similar price point as what they're replacing means there's simply no reason to not be looking at these items over the previous generation.
What the Z97 chipset has brought with it, though, is a ton of new motherboards and some cool new features from companies expanding on already popular motherboard line-ups. The particular ASRock Z97X Killer motherboard we're looking at today falls under the Fatal1ty series from the company. This series has always been a bit of a mixed bag for me as I'm not 100 percent sure what Fatal1ty is bringing to the table. I really do find myself quite surprised that ASRock continues to pay the money associated with this branding.
We must admit, though, the Fatal1ty series hasn't brought with it a huge premium in price over recent releases unless it was one of the top versions. So, with that all said and done, let's see just what the new ASRock Z97X Killer is bringing to the table and if it's something that you should be looking at.
Package - What comes inside the box
Taking a look at the front of the box, you can see the model and brand clearly along with a ton of the main features that are being offered. At the top right corner, you can see mention of the Super Alloy feature, while across the bottom, you've got some ASRock features like APP Shop, Purity Sound2, HDD Saver, and ASRock Cloud. You can also see other features like Killer E2200 networking along with a copy of XSplit being included.
Turning the box over, you can see we have an absolute ton of information being shown. Starting from the top, you can see the improvements that the Killer networking chip brings to the table. Working down the list, you can see the Super Allow features, which include XXL Aluminum Heatsink Design, Sapphire Black PCB, Premium Alloy Choke, and 12k Platinum caps, to name some of the main features. In the bottom corner, you've got a mention about the Gaming Armor features, which bring Purity Sound 2, Killer networking, and a few other features. As for the other side, you can see mention about ASRock Cloud, SATA Express, and the M.2 Socket along with HDD Saver, APP Store, XSplit, and the Fatal1ty mouse port.
Diving inside the box, we don't have a ton going on with the normal manual and driver CD being present. We've got a small SLI bridge along with four SATA cables, a SATA power connector, and our standard I/O back plate. ASRock doesn't do a lot with the bundle here and really does choose to simply let the motherboard do all the talking with its long list of features. Of course, it's worth remembering that we do get that ASRock Cloud storage along with a copy of XSplit on the CD.

A Brief History Of Cincinnati's Findlay Market
Findlay Market is the only surviving municipal market house of the nine public markets operating in Cincinnati in the 19th and early 20th century. The market house is built on land donated to the City of Cincinnati by the estate of General James Findlay (1770 - 1835) and Jane Irwin Findlay (1769 - 1851). Findlay Market is Ohio's oldest surviving municipal market house. It was designed under the direction of City Civil Engineer Alfred West Gilbert (1816-1900) using a durable but unconventional cast and wrought iron frame, a construction technology that had been little used in the United States. Findlay Market was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1972. The structure was among the first markets in the United States to use iron frame construction technology and is one of very few that have survived.
Built originally as an open-sided pavilion, the market was erected in 1852 but disputes with contractors and difficulties correcting problems with the new construction methods delayed its opening until 1855. The center masonry tower was added in 1902. Soon after, public health concerns about the market, which was open to the elements and increasing urban pollution, prompted enclosure of the market house and the addition of plumbing and refrigeration. Merchants previously had used cool storage in deep cellars beneath nearby breweries.
The market house tower bell, rung at the start of each market day, was brought from Cincinnati's Pearl Street Market when that facility was torn down in 1934. Findlay Market was renovated in 1973-74 as part of the federal Model Cities program. It was renovated again and expanded in 2002 and 2003.

Dr. Groode has been trained in two medical specialties.
Having studied Family Medicine, Dr. Groode has been trained to provide comprehensive medical care for families and individuals suffering from all types of illnesses, disorders, conditions and diseases. As a family doctor, Dr. Groode is usually the first point of contact for patients when they seek general medical care (categorized as a primary care provider) and can refer patients to specialists when necessary.
Family medicine, or family practice, is a division of primary care focused on the provision of comprehensive medical care for people of all ages, with family doctors often providing care for the entire family. As a family doctor, these physicians generally develop close relationships with patients over an extended period of time, allowing for the provision of comprehensive care that other specialists may be less likely to deliver.
Family physicians are tasked with caring for not only the physical health of patients and families, but also the mental and emotional health and how it relates to the family as a unit. Family medicine also emphasizes preventive care, attempting to keep the patient healthy and prevent diseases before they occur through regular exercise, a healthy diet and healthy life choices.
When treating patients and their families, family physicians employ a variety of techniques and procedures. With regard to preventive measures, Family doctors are tasked with performing regular examinations or checkups, immunizations and screening tests, among others. Family physicians are trained to identify and treat a very wide range of illnesses and injuries, but may also refer patients to a specialist when they deem it necessary. Additionally, family physicians may also treat and manage chronic conditions without the assistance of a specialist.
Learn more about family medicine at MD.com.
Having studied Functional Medicine, Dr. Groode has been trained to treat patients through preventive measures, as well as by treating the underlying causes of disease – as opposed to simply treating the symptoms of a condition. Dr. Groode is trained to develop a close, therapeutic relationship with patients, taking many different aspects of a patient's life into consideration when providing care.
Physicians that practice functional medicine are trained to treat the patient as a whole, identifying the underlying root causes of a condition in order to provide care (as opposed to treating just the symptoms of a condition, known as "acute care"). Functional medicine doctors are trained to take a wide range of factors into account when diagnosing and treating patients, such as: diet, exercise regimen, stress levels, occupational factors, family life and history, medical history, environmental factors, and many others. Functional medicine doctors attempt to understand each patient's unique biochemical physiology in order to provide the highest standard of care.
By moving from a disease-centric standard of care to a more patient-centric approach, functional medicine doctors are able to understand and connect with their patients on a more personal level. By having a closer, more therapeutic relationship, the doctor is able to understand more about the factors that may be contributing to the patient's condition. This close, calming relationship between physician and patient fosters a healthier lifestyle for the patient and provides the doctor with insight that would otherwise be lacking.
Many physicians that practice functional medicine agree that a healthy patient is not defined by the absence of disease, but rather by the patient's attainment of social, mental and physical well-being. Because no two patients have the same day-to-day experiences, medical history, stressors, or biological factors, functional medicine doctors believe in highly individualized diagnostic procedures and treatment plans. By identifying the root causes of a disease or condition, the physician is in a better position to provide a more biologically natural treatment: remove or inhibit the underlying cause, and the disease and related symptoms should subside or reverse.

Those two pounds are muscle from all the manual, or would that be pedal, work you just did. Don't forget muscle weighs more than fat - inch for inch. It's denser. Love the pictures. |

Great pictures - what fun that must have been! The terrain looks fairly flat - not too many hills I hope! It would be hard to do in Colorado - unless you like mtn biking! Thanks for sharing. |
Sooo purdy. I think you inspired me to go to Florida. ~ Kit |
Those are beautiful pictures. Where in Florida did you go biking? Geri |
Glass, you are right I just added 2 pounds of muscle!! Polardream, it was pretty flat, but at least on hills you do get to rest. On flats you have to pedal all the time, and in Florida there is always a wind. And it seems to always blow against you. Kit, it was beautiful, I just love Florida. Geri, we were at Live Oak for 3 days and Cherry Lake for 3 days. Some of the rides at Cherry Lake went into Georgia. We rode thru Quitman GA one day, it is very pretty there. beverly |
Thanks for sharing your great photos. I finally found 'em today (looked in QF Gallery and Camping Forum days ago --but of course, no luck. HA HA) Beautiful scenery and looks like a lot of fun. I'm impressed that you had a band providing musical entertainment. We've vacationed in N. Florida a couple of times (a great place to go in January when you live in northern Minnesota) and have gotten to paddle on Suwanee River, using an outfitter from White Springs for our shuttle.

China artist Ai Weiwei's tax evasion appeal rejected
A court in China has rejected an appeal by Chinese artist and dissident Ai Weiwei against a tax evasion fine, his lawyer says.
Police barred Mr Ai from attending court in Beijing's Chaoyang district to hear the verdict delivered.
Tax authorities imposed a 15m yuan ($2.4m, £1.5m) fine on Mr Ai's firm for tax evasion in 2011.
Supporters say the fine is politically motivated and Mr Ai wanted the court to overrule the penalty.
''We will keep appealing, until the day comes when we have nothing to lose,'' Mr Ai said via Twitter.
His lawyer Pu Zhiqiang, who was in court for the verdict, told reporters that the ruling was ''totally without reason''.
The artist, a outspoken critic of the government, was detained for almost three months without charge last year.
"This country has once again proved to the world that law and justice don't exist here" said Ai Weiwei on Twitter.
Outside his door witnesses counted up to 32 police cars.
His lawyers told the court the police were acting illegally preventing a free man from hearing the verdict in his own case.
The entire case they say is illegal, from the secret detention of Mr Ai to the fact there's no real evidence of tax evasion.
Ai Weiwei's fame, his adept use of social media, his refusal to stay silent, and his persistent, sometimes impudent, criticisms of the Communist Party's rule have all made this a litmus test for the way the party deals with dissent.
But, with the transfer of power to a new generation of leaders looming, China's huge security apparatus appears determined to put ''stability'' and ''harmony'' first, and, critics will say, due process second.
After he was released, he was accused of tax evasion and the fine imposed.
'Can't even appear'The Chinese authorities maintain that the firm, called Fake Cultural Development, owes them money and it must be paid back.
While Mr Ai is a designer for Fake Cultural Development, his wife is the legal representative of his company.
Mr Ai said earlier that police, stationed outside his home, had barred him from attending the court hearing.
''If I can't even appear in court, what more does this country have to do with me?'' he said over Twitter.
Security was tight at the court with reports of both uniformed and plainclothes police in the area and people, including journalists and diplomats, being turned away.
Mr Ai, 55, has said that the tax bill is pay-back for his activism and challenged it on the grounds that proper procedure had not been followed.
The Beijing court agreed to hear the case, in a surprise move.
Ai's tangles with authorities
- Supported online campaign to compile names of children who died in 2008 Sichuan earthquake - many in schools whose construction was allegedly compromised due to corruption
- Although a co-designer of Beijing's Bird's Nest Olympics stadium, he later disavowed the project, condemning China's hosting of the Games as "fake and hypocritical"
- His frequently censored blog was read by 10,000 people a day until shut down by authorities in May 2009; he continues to tweet constantly to more than 150,000 followers
- He was arrested in April 2011, held for 81 days and slapped with a multi-million dollar fine for tax evasion after he was released - a fine he unsuccessfully challenged in court
"The entire judiciary is shrouded in darkness," he said from his home in northeast Beijing after the verdict.
Earthquake criticismBorn in 1957 in Beijing, Mr Ai, the son of one of China's most famous poets, Ai Qing, has played a key role in contemporary Chinese art over the last two decades.
His involvement in the design of Beijing's 'Bird's Nest' Olympic stadium brought him international prominence.
But he fell out of favour with authorities with his outspoken criticism over the Olympics and the devastating May 2008 Sichuan earthquake.
In December 2010, he was among a group of activists and critics banned from travelling. A month later, his studio in Shanghai was demolished after officials said he had failed to obtain planning permission for the building.
He was then detained in April 2011 at Beijing airport.

An influx of foreign-invested manufacturers has steered Vietnam's industrial production towards higher-value goods, while expanding demand for trade and logistics services. Vietnam needs to strengthen its logistics capability to underpin its export-oriented production. This will provide opportunities for HK companies, particularly those in the freight forwarding and supply-chain management services sectors.
China's progress toward urbanisation has been unprecedented in its speed and scale over the past decade and has created vast business opportunities for a variety of service providers. In the process, a number of rural counties have been transformed into developed areas, while construction works have become commonplace in many parts of the country.
The biggest annual gathering of consumer tech professionals saw the Internet of Things take centre stage as brands vied to demonstrate their keenness to connect, meanwhile, driverless cars and drones endlessly circled the auditorium…
The Franchise & Licensing Asia 2014 exhibition experienced a 26% increase in the number of attendees, underlining the growth potential of the Asian market, with Vietnam and Indonesia currently cited as particularly promising territories.
The human mind is evolving to handle the vast range of digital stimuli it encounters on a daily basis, according to attendees at the Digital Transformation Conference, with it becoming ever harder to command consumer attention.

Today, however, all CCEM seems to have proven is that many of those people probably shouldn't be in the same room together.
Since 1991 the organization has pursued its somewhat amorphous goal of "linking business, education, citizens and government for a better environment." But that noble-sounding mission foundered even before the organization opened its doors, when local environmentalists objected to the involvement of corporations such as the Coors Brewing Company and Martin Marietta, which had records as environmental lawbreakers. The few public-interest groups initially involved soon bailed out, taking with them much of CCEM's credibility--and, perhaps, its sense of direction. Today, says one former boardmember, the center remains "an organization in search of a mission." But it hasn't gone away.
The center, which owes its continued existence to a political favor granted Romer by the federal Department of Energy, has also been plagued by rapid turnover in its top ranks, going through six executive directors in the past four years. And the conclusions it has managed to reach after four years of DOE-funded research on "public involvement" in environmental cleanups--conclusions it has packaged in an 88-page "stakeholder participation model"--owe more to common sense than they do to groundbreaking research. Though $7.66 million of taxpayer money has been allocated to the project, most of its published findings merely reaffirm tried-and-true homilies such as "Do unto others."
Now that tax money from DOE is running out, CCEM is scrambling to "regain its vision"--and find something to do that will provide enough revenue to keep open its doors on the 27th floor of a downtown Denver high-rise. The organization has tightened its belt in the past few months, reducing its number of full-time staff from twelve to eight people. Boardmembers say that the next executive director will make considerably less than the $125,000 the position commanded two years ago.
The organization's believers remain upbeat and excited about its potential for smoothing over cleanup conflicts. But its loss last month of yet another executive director suggests an organization adrift--and raises questions about the prospect of bringing such well-meaning, if high-flown, concepts as "building trust" to earth intact.
The only thing that seems certain about CCEM's future is that it won't be getting any financial donations from environmental groups. The nonprofit's chief project for DOE is finding a formula for getting citizens involved in decision-making at DOE cleanup sites. But while organizations such as the Colorado Public Interest Research Group (CoPIRG) and Greenpeace support the overall concept of collaborative problem-solving, they remain critical of the way CCEM has tried to bring those concepts to fruition.
The handful of environmentalists invited to take part at the organization's inception in 1990 left soon after CCEM accepted a five-year grant from the DOE--"one of the major polluters in the West," grumbles Richard McClintock, executive director of CoPIRG. Neither could environmental groups stomach the center's sources of supplemental income, which include membership fees and contributions from such corporate giants and acknowledged polluters as Coors. Aside from the taint they see from DOE money, some environmentalists who have encountered the center's "stakeholder involvement model" suspect the project's underlying purpose is to further DOE's internal interests while paying lip service to public participation.
Environmentalists say it's pointless for them to contribute time and energy to an effort as compromised by its dependence on money from industry and government as is CCEM. But while CCEM has been unable to resolve conflicts in its own ranks, it has spent an enormous amount of time and energy trying to help other people get along with each other.
The organization came into being largely due to frustration on the part of Governor Romer, who in the late 1980s grew impatient with the slow pace and expense of cleaning up environmental problem sites such as the Lowry Landfill and the Rocky Flats nuclear-bomb factory. It was Tim Holeman, who served as the governor's environmental advisor in the late 1980s and early 1990s, who laid the groundwork for the concept that would lead to CCEM.
"In 1989 the parties involved in environmental cleanup in this state were in a fistfight," Holeman recalls. "Environmentalists were filing lawsuits and going around in funny suits. Industry was feeling defensive and intimidated. Regulators were on auto-pilot, filling out permit forms and preoccupied with minutiae. Academics were involved with their own research, which didn't have a lot to do with solving real environmental problems. A lot of good people were working on environmental cleanup but were isolated from each other."
Adds James "Skip" Spensley, who practices environmental law at the Denver firm of Holme Roberts & Owen, "We were spending 75 percent of our time and money studying the problem instead of doing cleanup. The governor likes to say, `Let's take lemons and make lemonade.' That's the whole concept of the center."

Metallica deflated the pomposity of 1970s rock, while reinvigorating heavy metal with their fast, fierce, and surprisingly melodic sound. Pioneers of the thrash metal subgenre, vocalist/guitarist James Hetfield and drummer Lars Ulrich set down the foundation for the virtuoso playing of lead guitarist Kirk Hammett and bassist Cliff Burton. When Burton died in a tragic bus accident, the band grudgingly moved on, recruiting Jason Newsted and eventually launching the highly successful ...AND JUSTICE FOR ALL tour. With a common-man image and no-frills approach, the band lent a hand in slaying '80s glam metal. By the '90s, Metallica's non-stop touring and landmark albums made them one of the biggest--and most respected--rock bands on the planet.
Japanese exclusive reissue of 1986 album, packaged in a miniature LP gatefold sleeve, features 8 tracks. CBS. 2003.
One of the defining albums of thrash metal, Master of Puppets is arguably Metallica''s best album (as well as their last with bassist Cliff Burton). Focusing on the concept of power and abuses thereof, this is a collection of complex, intelligent music, played at about a hundred miles an hour. Not that these are short songs; this eight-song album clocks in at over an hour, which makes it all the more impressive that not one moment on this recording is boring. In tackling various approaches to their subject, Metallica is insightful lyrically as well as musically: "Welcome Home (Sanitarium)" is from the point of view of an institutionalized inmate and "Disposable Heroes" is the perspective of a soldier. If all you''ve heard of Metallica is what''s been on the radio recently, check this one out. You''re in for a surprise. --Genevieve Williams

Educating the Weary: Diabetes Educators
I personally wasn't able to attend the annual meeting of the American Association of Diabetes Educators this summer. But I've been there a few times.

text: DRUMMOND RANCHDrummond ranching in Osage County, Oklahoma, traces its roots to Frederick Drummond (1864-1913) who came to the former Osage Nation, Indian Territory, at the age of twenty-two in 1886. Drummond immigrated from Scotland in 1882 and, after spending a year in New York, headed to Texas to try his hand at ranching. Having little success, he went to St. Louis and found work with a wholesale dry-goods house. One of their customers was John R. Skinner, owner of the Osage Mercantile Company in Pawhuska, who hired Drummond as a clerk. Shortly after arriving in the Osage Nation, Drummond met Addie Gentner of Coffeyville, Kansas, and they married in 1890. The Drummonds were a popular couple in Pawhuska, and he was one of the best-known traders. In 1903 they moved to Hominy, where he helped organize the Hominy Trading Company. At one time Hominy Trading Company was the nation's largest dealer of Pendleton blankets, a product favored by the Osage. The Drummonds' Hominy home was placed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1981 (NR 81000466). All of their sons, Roy Cecil, Frederick Gentner, and Alfred Alexander "Jack" attended college and each helped write ranching history in Osage County. Roy (1892-1981) began ranching in 1913, and Jack (1896-1989) established ranches in Osage and Marshall counties. By the 1980s the brothers and their descendants managed more than two hundred thousand acres in Oklahoma and southern Kansas. Frederick Gentner Drummond (1895-1958) graduated from Oklahoma A&M College (now Oklahoma State University) in 1914 and attended Harvard Business School. He returned to assist running Hominy Trading Company after his father's death. In 1927 he married Grace Ford, and they became parents of three daughters and a son. During the Great Depression he established two Hereford cattle ranches in Osage County. Located south of Hominy and west of Pawhuska, the ranches totaled twenty-five thousand acres at the time of his death in 1958. Operation of these ranches fell to his son, Frederick Ford Drummond (1931- ), who had earned degrees from Oklahoma State and Stanford universities. After graduating from Stanford he joined United Missouri Bank of Kansas City as an inspector and counter of cattle used as loan security. He determined that the best way to do his job was to go where the cattle barons congregated. They could be found conducting business on the second floor of the Gunter Hotel in San Antonio, Texas, or in the lobbies of the Duncan Hotel in Pawhuska or the Broadview in Emporia, Kansas. Until the demise of the railroads the cattle market in Oklahoma and surrounding states was made at these hotels. Frederick Drummond's education and banking experience equipped him well to operate the family ranch. A member of the Texas and Southwestern Cattle Raisers Association since the age of seven, in 2002 he was training his son, Ford, to be a fourth generation Drummond rancher. SEE ALSO: CATTLE INDUSTRY.

Make a Splash With Seaweed
By: Cathy Christensen
Posted: June 1, 2009, from the June 2009 issue of Skin Inc. magazine.
page 2 of 4
Seaweed draws a wealth of mineral, macro and trace elements from the sea, as well as amino and fatty acids. For skin, it soothes, moisturizes, helps fight aging, offers anticellulite properties, improves suppleness and elasticity, cleanses and tones.5 It also can serve as an effective treatment for conditions such as psoriasis, eczema, dermatits and acne.6
At the Bella Pelle Beautiful Skin Medical Spa in Encinitas, California, clients can choose the Seaweed Detoxification Treatment, which stimulates and detoxifies, allowing for deep penetration of the trace elements, vitamins and amino acids in the seaweed and sea water components. The Age Defying Seaweed Wrap at Viva Day Spa in Austin, Texas, hydrates, tones and reduces fine lines while helping diminish cellulite; and the Seaweed Body Wrap is a component of The Fountain Journey from The Fountain European Spa in Hackensack, New Jersey. The Desert Heat Body Wrap from Buhl Mansion Guesthouse & Spa in Sharon, Pennsylvania, combines red seaweed and desert mud to help reduce fatigue and stress; and check out the step-by-step how-to recipe for the Seaweed Rejuvenation Facial from Spa Shiki at the Lodge of Four Seasons in Lake Ozark, Missouri, to help renew your client's complexion.
Skin care products contain a variety of different seaweed as well, subscribing to its multitude of benefits. Thalgo La Beauté Marine's Ocea Skin Moisturising Supplements combine omega-3 and -6, vitamin E and Odontella aurita algae to help skin lacking in vitality and moisture; and most of Repêchage's product line includes seaweed, such as its Perfecting Concealer, which conceals imperfections while helping to reduce puffiness under the eyes. Esente's Red Volcanic Seaweed Complex for traumatized skin helps provide cellular energy and combats oxidation and free radical damage, and SeaFlora Wild Organic Seaweed Skincare from Outer Coast Seaweeds is created from 12 different types of seaweed.
Just the right time
Even if McDonald's was before its time with the McLean, it did take a small step in introducing the American public to this little-respected algae. This plant powerhouse is a must-have for your spa treatments and cuisine, and if you feel unsure, go ahead and try something new. Perhaps it is just the right time to make a splash.

"I doubled this recipe and they turned out great. I did roll them in sugar and flattened them with a sugared glass bottom. My husband sure liked them."
"These are the best. I made a round ball and then flattened it just a bit with a glass dipped in sugar. This made them more uniform. I baked them exactly 18 minutes at 350. I didn't drizzle anything on them as I didn't think they needed it. These really do melt in your mouth. Happy Baking!"
"I have made these countless times and am asked for the recipe lots of times too. I used extra large eggs so I put in five and a half cups of flour. I baked them at 350 for 12 minutes and the recipe made 75 cookies."
"These cookies were great. I did refrigerate them for awhile before rolling them in the sugar and then between batches. I let them set up for a couple of minutes before I took them out of the pan. They turned out great and the recipe made 100 cookies."
"I made these today and thought they were excellent. I've tried many other recipes before and these were one of the best. I did add 1 teaspoon of cinnamon. I baked them at 350 for 12 minutes on parchment paper and they were perfect."
"These are wonderful cookies. I didn't have any buttermilk on hand so I soured milk by adding a Tablespoon of white vinegar. I rolled the cookies in a ball and rolled them in sugar and flattened them with a glass bottom that was dipped in sugar. My husband loved these. Thanks for the great recipe."
"I made this for dinner and thought it was so tasty. My husband said it was very good too. I'll be making this again. Thanks for the good recipe."
"I made this today to use on spareribs. It made a big batch so I will use it for many other kinds of meat too. I substituted some chili sauce and tomato sauce and part ketchup because I was low on ketchup. I halved the chili powder and thought that was enough for us. It was very good and I will make this again and again. Thanks for a great rec..."

Jul 26, 2013 10:48 AM by ASSOCIATED PRESS
WASHINGTON (AP) - There hasn't been a government shutdown in nearly two decades, but top lawmakers on Capitol Hill are finding trickier-than-usual obstacles in their path to avoiding one this fall.
Conservatives making a last stand against President Barack Obama's new health care law and Senate Democrats' resistance to $20 billion more in spending cuts wanted by many, if not most, Republicans are two of the major problems confronting House Speaker John Boehner and other GOP leaders.
The combustible mix raises the possibility of the first government shutdown since the 1995-96 battle between President Bill Clinton and GOP insurgents led by Speaker Newt Gingrich. Republicans got the worst of that battle and have avoided shutdowns ever since.

Chuck Norris Ate My Blog: Silent Rage (1982)
So yesterday when I said I'd see you after Memorial Day? I kinda forgot the Chuck Norris Contestothon [1] submissions were due today. Update: CNAMB's list of submissions is here! My Chuck Norris Ate My Blog Contest entry is the 1982 semi-horror flick "Silent Rage." The movie features Chuck, breasts, a maybe-zombie, and a dozen great character actors; my review features Spoilers! Originally, I had planned to watch "Code of Silence," but when I told my husband this he asked "Hey, is that the one with a zombie?" There's a Chuck Norris movie… with a zombie? Oh, I had to see that. However, it's equivocal whether the bad guy in "Silent Rage" is really a zombie or not. The movie's promotional material seems to take great pains to frame him as a product of genetic science gone wrong, but genetics were a bigger marketing ticket than zombies back in the early 1980s, so I'm not fully willing to dismiss the zombie theory. The film — which is sadly in 1.33:1 ratio on the DVD — opens with boarding house roomer John Kirby having a freak out, on the phone with his doc and sweating heavily. An annoying landlady and some screaming kids drive him a bit battier than he probably would have been otherwise, so of course he walks out into the back yard, grabs an axe, and starts choppin' the people around him. Not the kids, though. Chuck wouldn't have stood for that. Kids don't get chopped into chum … Continue reading
