Dear Friends and Family,
This spring semester has been one of stretching and growing for the group. We have already been to seven churches so far and each one of them has been such a blessing.
One of our favorite churches of the semester was Pleasant Valley Bible Church of Camarillo, the home church of Majesty alumni, James Phillipps. Majesty has been going to that church for the past seven years, and they are such a blessing to our ministry. Pastor Paul Phillipps and his family are especially faithful to be in prayer for Majesty as we head out to different churches. After the service, we all got to fellowship at a church member's house and watched the Seahawks win the Superbowl. One of our members, Ben, almost won the third annual Superbowl Ping Pong Tournament! We loved being able to get to know the church and the members on a more personal level.
Last week, we were at an ethnic church in the inner city of LA, pastored by TMS alums Anthony Kidd and Bobby Scott. Besides, our ministry, the service also consisted of a wonderful message from I Peter, as well as six baptisms. We were so blessed by the various testimonies and professions of faith coming from a growing church faithful to the gospel.
Yesterday was a full day for Majesty, as we went with The Master's Chorale to First Baptist Church of Lakewood, pastored by a TMC alum Brent Eldridge. The Chorale did two services and we ended the set with a solo piece featuring Bert Suluvale, a TMC alum and brother to TMC's own Siona Savini. His testimony is a miraculous testament to the faithfulness and grace of God and to stand with him as he sang a creed proclaiming our belief in God and his power was a fantastic opportunity.
Afterwards, Majesty took an almost-three-hour drive north, past Santa Clarita and into Bakersfield to minister at Grace Bible Church. The church has been through numerous trials in the past few years, but they are still faithful to proclaim the truth of the Gospel and the church is growing rapidly. We performed our normal full set and then Pastor Steve ended the evening with a simple and powerful presentation of the gospel, as there were a number in attendance that do not normally attend the church. The congregation was so thankful; not only for our music, but that we opened up doors to share the Gospel with neighbors and friends that may not be believers. Hearing that is so encouraging, as we know that we do have a higher calling to be deliverers of the Gospel more than performers of music.
Please pray for our ministry as we get ready for the second half of the semester; the upcoming theater production, in which half of us are involved in, will be demanding on our time and energy, but Majesty still has a ministry on Sundays. Also be praying for the preparation for both our tour to the Northwest in June and for the Chorale's tour to the Midwest in May. As always, be in prayer for our hearts as we strive to proclaim the Lord above all else and as we meet numerous congregations and try to encourage and minster to them in the ways that they need.
In Him and for His Glory,
Amelia, Ben, Caroline, Jared (& Alison), Kyle, Mike, Sara, Shannon, Taylor and TIffany
It is an immensely humbling thing to be a servant of the Most High God; to be an example of true, daily worship, and to usher His people into His presence. This is the wonderful ministry and unbelievable privilege we have this year! We would like to invite your prayer support as we serve… Please pray for our individual relationships with the Lord. Our ability to be used by the Lord is directly related to our time spent with Him. Our ministry must be an overflow of our hearts as they are filled with the things of God. (Ephesians 3:16-19; I Corinthians 11:1; Colossians 3:16, 17) Please pray for our continued unity. We are ten individuals who spend much time together in a dynamic ministry. United we are an incredible tool for God to use, but divided we are a dangerous weapon harmful to the Lord's church. May we walk in a worthy manner being diligent to preserve one mindset. (Ephesians 4:1-3; Philippians 2:1, 2)
Please pray for the churches and schools we are visiting this year. It is our desire to be an encouragement to them as we seek to increase their understanding of who God is, to motivate them to live every moment as a heart-felt response to this understanding, and to implant in them the desire to serve the Lord in the ministry He has for them. (Romans 12:1, 2; Hebrews 10:24, 25) Please pray for the individuals who attend our services. Week after week God encourages us through the stories and lives of those He has ministered to through us. May He continue to use us to cause others to glorify Him, and may they live lives that are forever changed. (Philippians 1:3-6; Titus 2:11-15)
Please pray that our lives would be forever different through our involvement in Majesty. We desire to grow ever closer to God as we proceed through life. Pray that we will take to heart what God is doing through us, and that we will be infused with a greater love and passion for the Lord that will reside in us for the rest of our days. (Ephesians 4:14-16; Philippians 3:13, 14) Majesty has recorded several albums over the past several years. They include Majesty Live, The Master's Music 2000, I Will Rejoice, How Great is Our God, and the latest album, I Will Follow Christ. Contact the Master's College Music Department at 1.800.568.6248 ext.3180, or e-mail us at firstname.lastname@example.com for ordering information.
E-mail Majesty at: email@example.com and enter "Majesty" in the subject line.

Simply Fabulous
If there ever was a true Hairnista, then Victoria Beckham is it. From her fierce bob to her new pixie cut, she never follows the trends...she sets them. These amazing pics are from the ad campaign for Armani's Spring 2009 lingerie line. I can't wait to see what Hollywood starlet shows up on the red carpet with a look "inspired" by this one?

This article describes the authors' efforts to develop a model evidence-based sign code and a model example of performance zoning with the intent of balancing the municipality's desire to regulate signage with the right of business owners to identify prospective customers and communicate with them. Section I describes the evolution of performance zoning. Section II focuses on current and future applications for performance-based codes. Section III describes the strengths and weaknesses of performance codes as well as the possible legal challenges to which they are susceptible. Section IV addresses challenges to performance zoning. Section V outlines the contents of and justification for the Model Sign Code developed by research affiliates with Urban Design Associates based in Austin, Texas.
In order for smart growth programs to succeed, proactive state involvement in land use planning is needed. Smart growth policies and enforcement mechanisms can have measureable effects on sustainable growth management. State oversight and enforcement in certain aspects of land use are critical to the success of any smart growth program. While some states have articulated smart growth goals in their land use regulations, few have successfully implemented those policies. Factors such as strong implementation methods, public participation, and coordinated legislation also contribute to the success of smart growth programs. This article addresses the need for reducing urban sprawl examines the varying levels of state involvement in land use planning and impacts on smart growth, and provides a detailed look at the Oregon system as an example of a successful "smart growth" state. Finally, the article summarizes several crucial features of an effective smart growth program.
Land development addresses economic and social conflicts project by project; but the purpose of sensible land use policies and processes ultimately is to hold a community's competing needs in tension. Minimizing chaos, while establishing development standards for predictability and consistency in land utilization, advances community development that is beneficial to its citizens. Conversely, a municipality's land use function fails its stakeholders when tension maintenance is neglected. This article suggests some means by which curbside collateral damage during the Work can be reduced dramatically when a city uses a government's police power through approaches befitting the circumstances. Part II of this paper outlines a typical situation involving implementing transit Work, while Part III discusses why nothing of value (literally and figuratively) arises from litigation by private property owners seeking compensation for their losses, defended at needless expense to the taxpayers by local governments. Part IV addresses the virtues of applying land use policies and conventions to accommodate transit Work for the survival of neighboring property users.
In order to prevent dozens of valueless, contaminated properties from burdening future land use and economic development across the country, cities and states need to develop local ordinances and state superlien statutes that endow them with negotiating power when facing the threat of abandonment of contaminated sites. This article begins by giving a brief overview of bankruptcy law, Chapter 11 reorganization, and the intersection between bankruptcy and environmental law. It then gives an overview of the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Act (CERCLA) and examines important case law involving Chapter 11 debtor environmental obligations and notes when environmental claims may be discharged during Chapter 11 reorganization. Finally, it addresses the environmental problems arising from the recent auto industry bankruptcy, analyzes the proceedings in Kenosha, Wisconsin, and argues that cities can use local ordinances and state superlien statutes to leverage power in cleanup negotiations.
The Occupy movement, using nonviolent civil disobedience, is a near throwback to the protests of the 1960s. With a unique form of protest, it has been front and center in the news and public debate for the last couple years. The round-the-clock occupation and transformation of physical spaces has both frustrated local governments and invigorated a dialogue around civil disobedience and the use of public spaces. This article provides an overview of what the Occupy movement is, including its core organization model and decision-making process. It examines the First Amendment arguments proponents use to justify the Occupy movement. One argument is that sleeping is a form of expression protected by the occupiers' First Amendment free speech rights. Further, the occupiers extoll that the public forum doctrine protects the movement participants' right to occupy public and private land. Incorporating experiences of multiple Occupy locations, this article explores the legal issues that arise when Occupy movements camp on public and private properties. This article concludes by highlighting three methods for local and state governments to utilize when dealing with Occupy protests. These takeaway lessons include: (1) negotiating with Occupy demonstrators when possible; (2) enacting ordinances and policies before an Occupy protest ensues; and (3) ensuring that ordinances currently in place forbidding occupation and overnight stays cover private parks used by the public.

The Boy Next Door review
The Boy Next Door is Jennifer Lopez's first film in two years. With more laughs and (way) more steam than in the trailer, you should give it a shot even though its great foreplay and racy sex don't result in satisfying finish. Still, where else would you hear lines like, "Dude, you've got to read The Iliad" coming from a man who's "nearly 20"? JLO plays Claire, a separated high school classics teacher and mom to a sensitive teenage boy who's allergic to bees. Full Story

"You're going to LOVE IT. It's ridiculous. Why don't they make movies like this anymore???? The sex is GREAT, the movie's not... but it's bad on purpose. Would still recommend. ... Just expect to roll your eyes and laugh. A lot."
I will. I know I will. I can't wait.

Last week we learned that Tom Hardy had dropped out of Warner Brothers' Suicide Squad, the villain team-up movie, and that they were going after Jake Gyllenhaal as his replacement. Well, Jake G has passed, too. So the Suicide Squad remains one member short with production set to begin in April. Full Story

- Sex: Male
Wee Man's Info...

Other Pets at A Tail to Tell Puppy Mill Rescue
Why Adoption is a Great Option
Wee Man, a South Amboy Chihuahua/Fox Terrier (Toy) dog was adopted! Here's how you can benefit by looking at adoption as an option to buying a Chihuahua/Fox Terrier (Toy) for sale in South Amboy, or seeking a Chihuahua/Fox Terrier (Toy) dog from a breeder in South Amboy.
- Rescues and shelter volunteers in South Amboy already know the personality and tendencies of their pets. This means they can match you with the right pet. That will makes it much easier transition to owning a pet for yourself and your new pet.
- On average adoption fees are much less than you'd pay a South Amboy breeder, or pet store. Plus most often rescue pets have already been to the veterinarian for a check-up, had a round of vaccinations, and are spayed or neutered. That is a lot of savings!
- You will become a hero, and give a needy dog or cat a loving home. In fact, there are even Chihuahua/Fox Terrier (Toy) breeders who help with Chihuahua/Fox Terrier (Toy) rescue. One puppy or kitten adopted in South Amboy paves the way for another one to be saved.

For immediate release - Monday, December 31, 2001. Contact Bob Brammer - 515-281-6699.
DES MOINES. Attorney General Tom Miller said the tobacco industry is paying $16.9 million today to the Iowa Tobacco Settlement Authority under terms of the settlement of lawsuits filed by Miller and other states. Iowa's share of payments made under the settlement over the last couple years now exceeds $140 million.
Miller said $3.7 million of today's total, 22 per cent, is going to the "Endowment for Iowa's Health" account, which is dedicated to purposes related to preventing and controlling tobacco use, substance abuse treatment and enforcement, health care, and other health needs of Iowa children, adults and families.
"Money from the settlement helps us make a healthier Iowa," Miller said, "including helping us reduce the terrible toll of tobacco-related disease and death."
The remainder will be used principally to pay bondholders who recently bought bonds worth over $644 million based on the stream of payments the tobacco industry is required to pay to Iowa in perpetuity. Bondholders are paid from a 78% portion of the industry payments under the "tobacco securitization" arrangement. The industry makes payments at the end of each year and in April.
"This is our first payment since the securitization was accomplished this fall," Miller said.
The tobacco industry is making payments nationwide today. Iowa's share is $16,905,713.54

Sunrise Sunset dishes up veggie-friendly breakfasts
Breakfast can be one of the most frustrating meals of the day for a vegetarian. Although many places offer all the sausage, bacon and ham you care to eat, I have yet to find a restaurant in Denver that serves Morningstar sausage patties instead of the carnivore's version (if you know about one, please clue me in!). That leaves us herbivores with few options on the breakfast circuit -- especially if you're not particularly a pancakes-and-waffles kind of person.
And we all know there's nothing worse than waking up after a night of partying hearty and having to make your own breakfast. No one wants that.
So on mornings when a belly full of greasy food -- and maybe some hair of the dog -- are the only things on the menu, and when you don't particularly feel like driving into town and fighting through the crowds at WaterCourse or City, O' City, I'm grateful to have an outpost of Sunrise Sunset within a fifteen minute drive of my house -- 1424 South Wadsworth Boulevard in Lakewood.
Back when I allowed meat to pass my lips, my favorite thing to eat at this restaurant was the Lumbre Sunshine: Country potatoes topped with sauteed onion, spicy sausage and jalapeños, smothered with cheeses, baked and topped with green chili (vegetarian) and two basted eggs. A close substitute is the Enchilada Sunshine, which isn't listed on the regular menu but is a special at all restaurant locations. It features thick white corn tortillas smothered with country potatoes, onion, cheeses, black beans, tomatoes, vegetarian green chili and two basted eggs, and an English muffin on the side. Normally, this is my go-to breakfast, and it's what my husband had to eat on the Sunday morning (well, closer to early afternoon) we visited Sunrise Sunset.
Add a sprinkling of jalapeños for some heat and maybe a bloody mary or mimosa, and you've got yourself a hangover cure.
Another favorite Southwestern-style breakfast of mine is the Black Bean Benedict, comprising a toasted English muffin topped with sour cream, green onions, green chilies, black beans and cheeses, baked and then topped with two basted eggs and smothered in vegetarian green chili. Again, this dish goes well with some jalapeños to add a little spice.
I was feeling rich and decadent, though, so decided to go with something containing Sunrise Sunset's creamy hollandaise sauce: the Vegetarian Benedict.
It's a toasted English muffin topped with onions, mushrooms, zucchini and peas, cheese, sliced tomatoes, spinach, based eggs and the aforementioned hollandaise sauce, with country potatoes on the side.
The brown skillets are always hot when the servers bring them to the table, and you can see how the cheeses and sauce bubble around the edges of the skillets as they're baked to perfection.

Registered as a guest for Women Digging Deeper Weekend?
Click here to get the up to date schedule!
Taught by Glenna Salsbury with Alicia Williamson Garcia as worship leader!
What In The World Is Going On?
"Indeed, the Sovereign LORD never does anything until He reveals His plans to His servants the prophets." Amos 3:7 NLT
The world is shaking! Increased earthquakes, unprecedented weather, a myriad of natural disasters (Philippines, Haiti, Katrina, Indonesia tsunami killing 250,000 people, etc.), rapid decline in morality, economic collapse and wars on every major continent. The Lord as Creator speaks to us through His creation (Genesis 1:14). He speaks to us through His written Word (Prophecy). And He speaks into our heart by His Spirit! The Bible tells us what specific signs will precede Christ's return. Many of these are now unfolding before our very eyes! Come discover what the Lord has revealed to us in His Word. And learn how you may want to prepare for what is coming.
Session I – The Eleventh Hour
"So when all these things begin to happen, stand and look up, for your salvation is near." Luke 21:28 NTL
There are unique Bible prophecies that have only been fulfilled since the beginning of the 20th Century. These are all related to events that, when fulfilled, are God's warning signs! Get ready!
Session II – So What?
"We tell you this directly from the Lord… we who are still alive and remain on the earth will be caught up in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air." I Thessalonians 4:15, 17 NLT
Sometimes we think Bible prophecy is irrelevant to us personally. Believers often shrug off any interest in learning what God's Word says to us about His return. Yet the first century saints were totally focused on Christ's return, day after day. Why should we be focused on the Lord's return?
Session III – Your Heavenly Future
"… and there will be no more death or sorrow or crying or pain. All these things are gone forever." Revelation 21:4 NLT
The fact is that what you and I are currently experiencing on earth is "boot training" for our future assignments. What are your expectations for life after death? How are your expectations impacting your daily life right now? Discover some secrets for increasing your joy right now!
Session IV – Heaven on Earth
"… As surely as I live, says the Lord, every knee will bend to me, and every tongue will confess and give praise to God." Romans 14:11 NLT
Christ is returning to set up His Kingdom on earth! He will "rearrange" the geography of the earth! All the nations of the world will worship in Jerusalem. ("Where does it say that?" you ask!) And how might this knowledge enhance our daily experience of Christ in this life, here and now?
An inductive Bible study, Deeper Knowledge…Deeper Worship
Are you ready to go deeper and really grasp the truths of God's Word? Would you like to know how to read and study the Bible with clear interpretation and understanding? Then join Alicia to discover a method of learning that will empower you to unveil Biblical truth…all by yourself!

He's given me numerous opportunities to share in ministry with friends and mentors," Alicia explains. Some of these ministries include Precept Ministries with bible teacher, Kay Arthur, The Billy Graham Evangelistic Association, IN Touch with Dr. Charles Stanley, Women of Faith, Gaither Homecoming, The Brooklyn Tabernacle, Dr. Tony Evans of the Urban Alternative, TBN, The Inspiration Networks, CBN, and many more.

We didn't get married in Disney World but did get married in Florida with Disney as our Honeymoon destination. Have you considered a destination wedding? We absolutely loved it and wouldn't have changed anything about it in hindsight. There are many "Disney" brides on this site. Aside from myself, you can also hunt down my good buddies Jeanne (MayBWeRMnt2B) and Rachel (Fungus 01). Both know a tremendous amount about Disney-related weddings and have been married recently/will be married soon.
Is he a golfer? Perhaps you could book 18 holes for him at one of the Disney courses. Or into Nascar? You could arrange a few laps for him over that the Richard Petty Driving Experience. It's important to show him that there's sooo much more to Disney that just the parks. Depending on the time of year you get married, you could catch some spring training baseball games at The Wide World of Sports. If worst comes to worst, you could head to the beach for a day to get away from all things Disney.
Find out what his ideal honeymoon is. Does he want an adventure or to lay around for days on end...then figure out how you can warp Disney World into your pitch. Or just get him to the World a few more times. Hopefully, with your enthusiasm, he'll convert.
Good Luck!

For most, the word "schmaltz" brings to mind gimmicky books and films, the artistically shallow sort that drip with sickly-sweet levels of sentimentality. That rom-com's eye-roll-inducing helicopter shot of the final kiss on the Brooklyn Bridge? That's schmaltz.
But for Michael Ruhlman and Lois Baron, schmaltz, while sentimental, is hardly shallow. It is rich in tradition and friendship.
"The Book of Schmaltz: Love Song to a Forgotten Fat" is the latest offering from Ruhlman, the James Beard winner behind the cookbook "Ruhlman's Twenty." The new book focuses on the creation and use of schmaltz, an ancient but now little-known rendering of chicken fat and skin seasoned with onions.
Ruhlman took inspiration from Baron, his septuagenarian Cleveland neighbor, whom he heard lamenting the decline of her beloved schmaltz, what she calls "a thread that runs through the great tapestry" of Jewish cuisine. Deep in flavor and bursting with aromatic savoriness, schmaltz was once common with Ashkenazi Jews in regions where olive oil was not available and porcine fat was banned under kosher law. But over the years, schmaltz's role in Jewish kitchens has faded.
Intrigued by her passionate lamentations about the depth of flavor and complexity schmaltz offers, Ruhlman asked his neighbor to help him share the secret to her beloved ingredient.
Baron's recipe for making schmaltz serves as the cornerstone of the "primer on schmaltz," which details uses for the savory stuff in Jewish staples like matzo ball soup, knish and chopped liver, along with other dishes, including cookies and gnocchi.
Not being Jewish himself, Ruhlman writes as an outsider peering through the prism of the Baron family history, making the readers feel they're learning right alongside Ruhlman. That his wife, Donna Turner Ruhlman, contributed the photos boosts the sense of standing in the family kitchen, watching Baron smack Ruhlman's hand away from the kreplach she has not quite finished.

POSTED: Wednesday, February 18, 2009 - 10:00pm
UPDATED: Thursday, June 3, 2010 - 10:57pm
The New Orleans Hornets announced Wednesday that center Tyson Chandler will return to the Hornets after the original trade to the Oklahoma City Thunder was rescinded. The Thunder's medical staff failed to clear Chandler after the physical.
"We welcome Tyson back with open arms," said Hornets General Manager Jeff Bower. "We went into this trade to garner more frontcourt depth to add to our team as we continue our push towards the playoffs. We expect Tyson and the rest of our big guys to step up to the challenge."
Forward Joe Smith, center Chris Wilcox and the draft rights to center Devon Hardin will immediately rejoin the Thunder.
Chandler is averaging 8.8 points and 8.3 rebounds this season through 32 games (all starts). He averaged a career-best 11.8 points to go along with 11.7 rebounds in 79 games (all starts) for the Hornets last season.
Chandler will re-join the Hornets in Los Angeles before their game against the Lakers on Friday.

Medicaid is the largest source of public funding for family planning services in the United States, financing contraceptive services for millions of low-income women.
Twelve percent of women of reproductive age rely on Medicaid for their care, ranging from 6% of women in Nevada and New Hampshire to 24% of women in Maine. Over the past decade and a half, 26 states have initiated special programs that extend family planning services to low-income individuals who are not otherwise eligible for Medicaid.
This updated issue brief by the Guttmacher Institute and the Kaiser Family Foundation reviews Medicaid's part in financing and providing access to family planning services for low-income women across the nation.

An April 2007 issue brief published by the Commonwealth Fund examines affordability of health insurance for women. The authors, Elizabeth M. Patchias, M.P.P., and Judy Waxman, note:
Although men and women have some similar challenges with regard to health insurance, women face unique barriers to becoming insured. More significantly, women have greater difficulty affording health care services even once they are insured. On average, women have lower incomes than men and therefore have greater difficulty paying premiums. Women also are less likely than men to have coverage through their own employer and more likely to obtain coverage through their spouses; are more likely than men to have higher out-of-pocket health care expenses; and use more health care services than men and consequently are in greater need of comprehensive coverage. Proposals for improving health policy need to address these disparities.

Probiotic deodorant idea forges new UK-India links at biotech competition
4 December 2007
In a unique link up that aims to boost biotech entrepreneurship in India and help UK scientists to build links with Indian colleagues, a team of Indian researchers yesterday pitched their proposal for a hypothetical biotech company at the final of the UK's longstanding Biotechnology Young Entrepreneurs Scheme (YES) competition. The Indian team, from The International Centre for Genetic Engineering and Biotechnology, presented their idea for the world's first probiotic deodorant.
The team are the winners of the first ever India YES, run in parallel with the UK competition and sponsored by UK Trade and Investment and the Foreign and Commonwealth Office. The team came through rounds in India and semi-finals in Oxford and Edinburgh to secure their opportunity to be showcased at the UK National Final.
Biotechnology YES is an annual competition, now in its 12th year, that aims to help the UK's young bioscientists gain the skills and contacts needed to turn lab research into commercial reality. It is run by the Biotechnology and Biological Sciences Research Council (BBSRC) and the University of Nottingham Institute for Enterprise and Innovation (UNIEI). This year 64 UK teams have competed for the opportunity to present at the final in London – the winners walked away with the sought after Biotechnology YES 2007 title, £1,000 in cash, a sponsored table at this Biotechnology Industry Association dinner and the chance to present their idea at a prestigious US business plan competition.
Dr Doug Yarrow, BBSRC Director of Corporate Science, said: "We are really pleased that India YES attracted high calibre teams from the Indian biotechnology research community and that the best are joining us for the showpiece final of the UK Biotechnology YES competition. India YES has been an excellent opportunity to boost the profile of UK bioscience and biotechnology in India and for participants from both countries to network.
"The Indian participants in the UK workshops have been superb ambassadors for their country's research community."
Rob Daniel, First Secretary, Head-Science and Innovation, India at the Foreign and Commonwealth Office, said: "India YES has been a huge success. We have had the best budding biotech entrepreneurs from India showcasing their ideas alongside their UK colleagues, Indian researchers have received excellent training in entrepreneurial skills in the preliminary heats and delegates from both countries have had the opportunity to network. The Indian biotechnology sector is well developed and growing fast. Improving links and sharing skills between both countries will benefit us all in the future."
Notes to editors
Biotechnology YES has been running since 1995. Research has found that young scientists participating in the competition are more likely to enter business roles than other young scientists.
The competition is sponsored by 20 different organisations – BBSRC; BIA; The University of Manchester Incubator Company (UMIC); The University of Manchester Intellectual Property Ltd (UMIP); Manchester Science Park (msp); Manchester Investment Agency (MIDAS); AstraZeneca; The North West Development Agency (NWDA); BioNow; Cancer Research UK; Eric Potter Clarkson; Gatsby Charitable Foundation; GlaxoSmithKline; the Medical Research Council (MRC); the Natural Environment Research Council (NERC); Nestle; Pfizer; Smith & Nephew; Syngenta; UK Trade and Investment; The Foreign Commonwealth Office; University of Nottingham Institute for Enterprise and Innovation (UNIEI) and Yorkshire Forward.
For the first time Biotechnology YES hosted the winners of India YES - a parallel competition sponsored by the Foreign and Commonwealth Office and UK Trade and Investment – which saw teams from India participated in the Edinburgh and Oxford regional heats in a separate contest. The associated "feeder" competition in India attracted 69 teams, 14 of which were shortlisted before deciding on the four to be represented in the UK competition. The winning India team, ProBioVision, pitched their plan for the world's first probiotic deodorant.

Aylesworth Elementary School fourth-grader Holly Heldt shoots at the Hoops for Hearts teacher-student basketball game. | Photo provided
Breakout text.
Updated: May 6, 2013 6:10AM
Poet Mattie Stepanek said, "Unity is strength ... when there is teamwork and collaboration, wonderful things can be achieved."
This was definitely the case at Aylesworth Elementary School in Portage recently. Teamwork, collaboration and effort came together in a unique fundraiser.
Their two-week project, Hoops for Hearts, provided educational opportunities and healthy and fun activities and raised $6,212 for the American Heart Association.
Physical education teacher Cathy Constandars used Hoops for Hearts to teach her students not only basketball techniques but also academic lessons.
"I had basketball challenges all week — free throws, passing, how many baskets can you make in a minute, etc. The challenges incorporated reading, social studies, math and science, too. For example, the kids could try to shoot a basket from each of the seven continents."
"All the activities led up to the student-teacher basketball game," she continued. "We've done this for a number of years and the kids really look forward to it. The fourth- and fifth-graders can enter their names in a raffle to be the captain for their grade's team. It cost a dollar for each entry."
There were other parts to the fundraiser. Students gathered donations from family, friends and neighbors. Students and staff paid a dollar a day to don a hat on two different Hat Days. On March 22, the day of the teacher vs. student basketball game, the PTO donated popcorn. Students could buy a bag to enjoy at the game for 25 cents.
Fourth-grader Zander Marcotte and fifth-grader Dominick Reyna won the raffle. As captains for their respective grades, they selected six other students to make up their teams.
Fourth-graders Keyan Ridgeway, Hunter Duvall, Shawn Grubbs, Mark Perez, Holly Heldt and Piper Perryman were chosen by Marcotte. Reyna selected Jordon Brown, Saige Walleske, Caleb Downs, Tallon Uporsky, Matthew Noble and Christopher Jansen.
The students took on the faculty team of Constandars, Brittany Lewis (kindergarten), Angie Wyatt (home-school adviser), Becky Mitcheltree (fifth), Kat Queram (fifth), Chris Nixon (fifth) and Carrie Biggs (third).
After principal Tara Wiltfong thanked the students and teachers for their efforts, Portage Township Schools superintendent Ric Frataccia threw up the opening jump ball to begin the game. The faculty took on the fourth-graders first. The gathered students yelled and applauded for every basket, whether made by a student or teacher.
During halftime, the kindergartners and first-graders swarmed the floor and danced the Cha Cha Slide. Second- and third-graders danced the Macarena, and fourth- and fifth-graders, the Cupid Shuffle. The teachers' score returned to zero, and the fifth-graders took the floor to battle against their teachers.
Although the teachers won the game according to the scoreboard, everyone felt like a winner at the end.
"It was fun playing against the teachers," Matthew Noble said.
"I liked watching the basketball game and getting to wear a hat for Hat Day," Angel Maupin said.
"This is by far our biggest year of helping the American Heart Association. We brought in more than double what we did last year," Constandars said. "We did a lot more advertising and offered the kids additional incentives. We pumped it and plumped it and did a lot more online. The kids really came through."

My local Barnes and Noble (Jackson, MS) did not get any copies. They ordered some when I asked about the book on Tuesday. I was rather puzzled about this. I ordered a copy at an independent bookstore (which had some copies before Tuesday but I was unaware of this).

Nice work; you even kept the grain look in it

A simple filter effect. This only took maybe an hour to do and I don't have a template to work with. This is why I got upset in the other topic with how they pushed this error through production. The artist, if I had to guess, lost the file for Waiqar's Capital.
Posted 03 December 2011 - 12:56 PM
Nice work but i would really live better not knowing this:( Yes we can print this image and glue it to the original token, but it wont be the same:( Damned... you've ruined my perfect game ;(

Well, if you think about it, Waiqar, being an undear lord, could have taken the ruin of an old Elven capital

American Traditions Paint
posted by: sue102 on 07.12.2006 at 12:19 pm in Home Disasters Forum I'm just curious if anyone has used or had trouble with American Traditions paints found at Lowe's? We just recently painted our family room. The color turned out to be perfect. However, during the painting process, we noticed little pieces of 'paint skin' that rolled onto the wall, as we got towards the bottom of the paint can. The paint was supposedly mixed well at the store and we restirred it before use. If it had only been in one of the two cans we purchased we wouldn't have thought much of it but it was in both. (And what a mess to get them all off the walls and resmoothed!) So, I took the receipt and a sample of the paint skin back to Lowe's, thinking they would at least acknowledge their problem with the paint. The clerk's response? "Oh we've had several problems with this kind of paint in the last few weeks." Nothing else so I told her I was going to contact the paint company and she said that was a stupid idea. I did send an e-mail to them but have not received a reply to this point. So, please think twice before you use this brand of paint and I would like to hear if anyone else has had this type of problem. Thanks.

This is my everyday eyeliner.one pencil can last you about 2 years or more.i love it.The black(noir) 61 is really dark which makes it perfect.
It's by far the best eye khol for my SENSINTIVE eyes, but it dosent stay on as long as the one from Gosh or Urban Decay :(
After reading the reviews on here I became very hopeful for this product! I have seriously been on the hunt for a pigmented black eyeliner that DOES NOT smudge. I need something that will last all day. Unfortunately, this is not what I was looking for. Lovely black color, but it doesn't last unless you can be bothered to set it. It reminds me of all of the other pigmented drugstore eyeliners that I've tried. Great pigmentation, but does not last all day. Overall, I will not be repurchasing just because this isn't anything special, minus the luxury fact that it's Chanel.
Still on the hunt for the perfect eyeliner! closet i've come is Milani liquif'eye in black.
I was looking for a white eyeliner to put on my bottom eyelid since it makes your eyes look bigger. I had gotten one in Brazil that I really liked, but the pencil was running out. Since most of my makeup comes from Chanel, I decided to try their Khôl in white. The color did not want to stay on and during the day I had to keep retouching. I payed 23 CAD for this, and the one I got in Brazil for the equivalent of around 10 CAD was a lot better. This eyeliner may be good for other purposes, but if you were looking for it in white to make your eyes look bigger, forget it.
Le Crayon Khol is a semi-soft powdery pencil suitable for the waterline. Comes as a pencil with a Chanel pencil sharpener in the retail box. Texture wise it is soft, easy to glide onto both upper and lower eye lids. Staying power is good for the upper lids but if you tend to have watery eyes, it may not be as long lasting on the lower waterline. Intense as the name depicts, the colour can be varied from lighter smudge of colour to full on intensity by layering drawing over the line several times. Price is reasonable SGD$32 with sharpener. MAC powerpoint costs $25 and is much shorter.
PROS: beautiful pigmentation. I have this in black, and it is the most intense black eyeliner I've ever used. Goes on very smooth and it is very easy to apply. Ideal for creating smokey eye look. CONS: it does not last well and smudges. I never thought that my eyelids are oily, but with this eyeliner, I experienced the racoon eye effect for the first time. If you look for an eyeliner for sexy, slightly dishevelled, smudged look, you might like it. If you want a precise definition, I think it is not for you.
1 out of 1 people found this review helpful. Did you? Yes No
I own this in black,gray,white and brown.This is recommended for use in the water line.I think the black shade is one of the best black khol pencils in the market.The color is very rich and very intense.For me the Chanel black khol pencil delivers the blackest black color in my water line, and the staying power inside the water line is more than average.The other shades are....cute...:)) But they didn't impress me that much.The brown shade though (62 ambre) delivers the the most perfect chocolate brown color I ever seen.All the shades though have soft and so easy to blend textures that personally I use them as an eye shadow base too.If the staying power of this eye pencils was better they would be perfect for me.The reason I answer no to the question If I would by this product again because the eye pencils from Mac are cheaper and they perform excellent on me

Yesterday Kevin told me that Target was having a clearance sale on Paula Deen cookware, and so I said we should go and check it out. Almost all of the PD cookware had sold out, but I did find a nice PD black pot/sauce pan that I thought I could use. I liked the size of it - 7" diameter x 4-3/4" high (3 quart) and oven safe to 350 degrees. I already had a copper bottom sauce pan that is 7" diameter, but it is only 3-1/4" high and does not have an oven safe handle. Since I have a white kettle, I thought it would be poetic justice to buy a black PD pot. Unfortunately, it does not work on induction burners, but then almost nothing I saw at Target did. While I was there (and I very seldom visit Target - maybe once or twice a year), I saw a 4-quart B&D crock pot for cheap and decided that it was time to try one out. At least it has an attractive polished aluminum finish, although I plan to keep it out of sight. I stored it where I thought I might store the bread machine, but now I am thinking of storing the bread machine in the garage, since I only use it once a week, and it is not heavy. It really is ugly to look at on the counter, and I found that I only have gold lame fabric - no silver lame - although I have not finished looking for suitable covering fabric, in case I decide to leave it on the counter. The crock pot fits easily in one of my lower cabinets, but the bread machine is a tight fit there. I thought the crock pot might be useful in the summer, but all I can think of to make in it is beans and maybe a chicken. It is supposed to hold a 3 pound chicken, but I'm not sure I can find a chicken that small. If not, I can cut one up to fit in, I guess, or just buy thighs and breasts. It seems that crock pots are best for cooking beef, but I will not be doing that just for myself. What is your favorite non-beef crock pot dish? Is it good for cooking cut up chicken, or should the chicken be whole? Lars |
Follow-Up Postings:
Good finds, Lars! I'm sure you'll find all kinds of ways to use both new items. My favorite in the crockpot is to cook pork for pulled pork. I've done chicken in a pre-bought cream soup as well as beef. I've also fixed a small, bone-in turkey breast in my crockpot and it was wonderful. Madonna |

I bought a four pound chicken today and will try to see if it will fit. I plan to pack the crock tonight and start the cooking when I come home for lunch tomorrow. I probably will not have room for any vegetables, but I can cook them in my pressure cooker. I haven't tried cooking chicken in the pressure cooker, and maybe I should have considered that option. I will take your advice and look for a bone-in turkey breast for the next time. I think I can find one under three pounds. Lars |
Lars, I use mine a lot for beans, but I also use it to make oatmeal overnight so it's ready for breakfast the next day, I use it for soup, rice pudding, I've made yogurt in mine (although I think the dehydrator works better) and Makayla has made little individual cheesecakes in my canning jars and some chocolate pudding type cake. I don't like ground meat cooked in the crockpot, it tends to cook until it's too soft and I don't like the texture. Chicken can dry out if you aren't careful with it too. I've also used it to make spaghetti sauce and to keep things like meatballs warm for potlucks and family parties. I just saw an America's Test Kitchen/Cook's Country show where they cooked a brisket by placing an overturned loaf pan in the bottom of the crock and putting the meat on top to keep it from "boiling" in the cooking liquid. I'll look forward to seeing what you make in yours! Annie |
That must have been a giant crock pot. I remember a long time ago there was a thread on this forum about caramelizing onions in a crock pot. I occasionally think about trying that, but never have. I love caramelized onions, so maybe I will try it some day. I rarely use my crock pot, but I do for beans and the rare time that I or Jerry makes pot roast. He gets a hankering for it. But, that's beef and not what you asked for. Okay, I did a search on Google, and found the thread about the onions. Have fun with your new toys, um, tools. Sally |

That onion soup recipe looks good and easy - I will save those instructions for the future. I plan on putting onions with the chicken when I cook it, but I will have to do that at lunch. I was too tired last night to put it together. We had dinner rather late - 9:00 - because I did some late evening gardening. We found wild-caught Alaskan salmon at the market, but the pieces were thin, and so I baked it with dill and capers and made potatoes with onions in the pressure cooker. The salmon was less flavorful than I expected, and so it might have been previously frozen, but at least it was not farmed. I guess I will use this recipe for the crock pot whole chicken, but I was concerned that it did not have any liquid in it. Is this normal? The pot instructions said to fill the pot at least half way up. I think I will have time to prepare this during lunch, cook it on high for 4-5 hours, and then have it ready for dinner. I feel a bit uncomfortable about leaving it to cook with no water, however. Lars |

Lars, the chicken will release plenty of moisture while cooking in your crockpot. I wouldn't worry about leaving it while you return to work for the afternoon. /tricia |
- Posted by walnutcreek (My Page) on Mon, Jul 15, 13 at 12:49
Absolutely no need to add any liquid. The chicken will extrude a lot of liquid. |
My favorite "go-to" recipes for the Crock-Pot both include chicken. One is simply to put the whole chicken in it (minus the gizzards etc), dump about a cup of water on it, and let it cook all day. We then serve with old-fashioned wide noodles (cooked in the chicken broth), and a vegie. The other includes those chicken leg quarters that often come on sale. Put 4-6 of those in the Crock-Pot, take your favorite BBQ sauce and pour over it, and let it cook all day. Comes out like BBQ chicken. A third recipe has nothing to do with chicken. :-) Take a ham hock, then cover it with the contents of one of those huge restaurant-sized can of cut green beans. Sprinkle with onion powder (or add a half onion, chopped up), and let cook all day. This is an old family recipe for green beans, though my MIL started by making those in a huge pot on the stove (before days of Crock-Pot). Donna |
Lars, I'll be interested to see how you like the results of crock pot cookery. I use mine a lot for heating up and keeping items like baked beans or sausage and pepper sandwich filling warm for a picnic or potluck. I have tried many recipes over the years for cooking from scratch in the crockpot but haven't liked the results. It seems to me as if the flavors leach out along with the moisture and they end up with a soggy texture. |
- Posted by publickman (My Page) on Mon, Jul 15, 13 at 15:19
Thanks for the responses - I will try cooking it without water, but I will use the onion, and I think I will add lemon juice and garlic. I'll let you know how it comes out. If I don't like it, then I can at least use it for beans, and since I cook beans a lot, that should be helpful. However, I have switched to cooking beans in the pressure cooker, and so I will have to decide which I think is more convenient. I haven't tried all my bean recipes in the pressure cooker yet. I think the crock pot may be better for Minestrone soup and the Cuban Black Bean soup that I make. Lars |

I use mine to make stews and soup. I've also made a delish roast pork with cranberry. I have a small one I've used for rice pudding. And I make a chicken fricasee in mine which is tasty. Mom used to make polenta in it too. I know you said no beef, but I have used mine for beef stew, kielbasa, and pot roast. Yum! We also use it for stuffed peppers and stuffed cabbage. It is great for parties when you want a hot appetizer that people can help themselves to. |
- Posted by publickman (My Page) on Mon, Jul 15, 13 at 18:39
I never thought of serving a hot appetizer, here in Los Angeles, but I guess it could be appropriate for some occasion - I'm thinking miniature turkey meatballs or something like that. At least it will give me that option. My parties have always been primarily outdoors, although I do keep the appetizers in the dining room, which is easily accessible from the back yard through the patio doors. I have all kinds of grills for the hot food outdoors. Good that you mentioned stuff cabbage - I make that with ground turkey, but it is a good option. I also like to make stuffed peppers using ground turkey. I would use beef if Kevin would eat it. It is generally better to substitute ground turkey for ground pork, however, flavorwise. I think that I will also want to make oatmeal in it, although I will have to buy the right kind of oats. And I might try grits, since you mention polenta. I can see now why people have them in more than one size. Lars |

Great deal! I have a crockpot and have used it once. I really need to start utilizing it more! |

Ruthanna, I have to agree with you that the texture of the chicken came out a bit soggy, if that is the right description. I wonder if I left it in too long. When I tested the temperature, it was at least 10 degrees over what is needed to be done, and so I think I need to cook it a shorter time or with low heat instead of high. Next time I will use low heat, but Kevin was happy with it the way it was. It was not as good (to me) as poached chicken, which I simmer for one hour and then leave in the pot with the heat off for one more hour. For me, that makes a better texture, and the meat still falls off the bone - just not so quickly. I think I will get a very good stock from this, but I will have to finish making that tomorrow. I do think there are plenty of other better ideas for using the crock pot, and I may be reluctant to cook chicken in it again, although it seems like it would be good for legs and wings. The thighs came out okay also, but the breast was too soft. Lars |
Crock-Pot "Baked" Chicken Pieces Put several wads of foil in the bottom of the Crock Pot to raise the chicken pieces. Placed seasoned chicken pieces on top of the foil. Heat 1-hour on HIGH and 6-8-hours on LOW. (This chicken will be like baked chicken, not stewed in it's juices like most slow-cooker recipes.) Crock-Pot Boneless, Skinless BBQ Chicken 4-6 boneless, skinless, chicken breasts Mix sauce ingredients. Place chicken in crock pot. Pour sauce over chicken. Cook on LOW 4-6-hours. Slow-Cooker Fudge 2-1/2 c. chocolate chips Mix all the ingredients EXCEPT the vanilla in the cooker. Cook on low for 2-hours with the lid on without stirring and NO PEEKING. After 2 hours, turn off cooker, take off lid and add vanilla. Cool the fudge in the slow cooker until room temperature (or approximately 1-hour). Stir vigorously for 5-10 minutes until it loses some of the gloss. Pour into a 1-quart prepared dish (or pan). Cover and refrigerate 4-hours, or until firm. Shredded Steak, Chicken or Pork (I made this last night using a short chunk of pork loin I had in the freezer - about 22-oz. I cut it in 1-inch cubes while semi-frozen.) Cube the type of meat you are going to use. Season with your favorite seasoning mixture. Cover with 1-2 cans of Rotel Tomatoes (original), depending on how much meat you cook. One can of Rotel per pound of meat (more or less). Cook 8-hours on LOW, or 4-hours on HIGH. Remove meat and shred. |

Caramelizing onions. What a great idea. I just found a half bag hidden in the pantry after buying another bag. Out on the deck it goes, where i've been roasting coffee. I don't use my crock-pots very often. Winter stews, chili, beans. I have two different ones at different homes and they have very different settings. One cooks way too hot on high so it is difficult to follow a recipe exact without experimenting a few times. |

Here is a recipe for caramelizing onions in the crockpot from Jadeite. I regularly caramelize onions in my crockpot. I slice enough onions to fill it, which is about 5 lbs or so. I get a bag from Costco and do the whole lot, sometimes in 2 batches. I add a stick of butter and turn it on. At the start the onions give off liquid so you get a soupy mix, but as the liquid is cooked off, you'll see the onions caramelize in their own sugars. I don't add anything, no sugar, no salt. I don't find it necessary but your taste may not be the same as mine. Once it's deeply caramelized (for me it takes most of a day), you can do whatever you like. We freeze in portions to be put on pizza, or eaten with tortillas, or added to soups, stews or sauces. I start on high and keep it there until most of the liquid is cooked off. Then I switch to low until the onions are just about done. If I'm not going to be around to keep an eye on it, I put it on low and let it go. Your slow cooker might not be as low powered as ours, so you should see how long it takes. It's really easy. Cheryl (jadeite@gardenweb) |

The Rotel tomato recipe looks good to me, and I think I would add some achiote to it for a Yucatecan flavor. The fudge sounds good also. I still agree that roasted chicken tastes better, but there is definitely a convenience to the crock pot. At lunch today I put it back on with the stock that I started last night after the chicken was done. I did not want to cook it all night and have to deal with it in the morning, and so I will deal with it when I get home. It does make the house smell good to have chicken in the pot. Lars |

The onions...amazing!. Caramelizing onions are always such 'babies' the usual way. Constant tending. I had 8 big reds. Only one was funk. I added a cup of rich stock that i always have in the freezer. Lots of garlic and a lemon i cut into 6 wedges. A chunk of ginger, half a habanero. On high for 6 hours, set it up out on the deck just out the kitchen door. Very creamy and just enough liquid for adding 'stink' cheese. A 1/4 of the wheel a friend gave me, made from his organic cow milk. It is a Munster. Tossed it with wide noodles topped with a healthy hand of chopped fresh basil over a bed of our first arugula crop. So good. (removed the lemon wedges and ginger) Have had such a tough time deciding how to use this cheese... |
