Feb. 21 (Bloomberg) -- Vitro SAB, the Mexican glassmaker that defaulted on $1.5 billion of bonds in 2009, rose to the strongest level since June 2008 as the company moves ahead with its restructuring plan.
Vitro rose 7.5 percent to 17.2 pesos at 11:52 a.m. in Mexico City, headed to its fifth day of gains. It has soared 19 percent since Feb. 14. The stock advanced to as high as 17.6 pesos in intraday trading, the strongest since touching 17.63 pesos on June 30, 2008.
The company said on Feb. 7 that a Mexican judge gave approval for it to restructure defaulted debt over the objections of U.S. creditors who said it was unfair for $1.9 billion of intercompany loans that Vitro created after the default to be included in a vote on the refinancing plan. Noteholders, including Elliott Management Corp., had argued that the inclusion of intercompany debt let Vitro dictate terms.
The stock is rising after some of the lawsuits the company faced "turned out positive," Leon Cabrera, a trader at CI Casa de Bolsa, said by phone from Mexico City.
The refinancing plan for the company based in San Pedro Garza Garcia, Mexico, swaps the defaulted debt for $814.6 million of new bonds maturing in 2019 with an interest rate of 8 percent and $95.8 million of debt convertible to shares with a 12 percent rate.

Presidential International Scholar prepares for journey
Student from Charleston, S.C., to study women in Latin America
– Wofford College senior Lindsey Grace Perret believes everybody has a story, and she's eager to hear all of them when she travels to Latin America starting next week as the college's
Presidential International Scholar

major from Charleston, S.C., will be conducting independent research focused on women as agents of change in that region of the world, but she's excited to meet as many people as possible and to learn more about them. "I'm excited to get to know a part of the world I've never experienced before," she says. "I've never been to any of the countries that I'll be visiting on the trip – Nicaragua, Mexico and the Dominican Republic – and every culture has its little quirks that are so intriguing. I'm also thrilled to see what I'll stumble upon in my research. It's easy to forget that everyone you pass on the street has a story as complex and as vivid as yours, and I want to hear those stories."
Perret leaves for her journey next Wednesday, Aug. 27. She will return in January. She is the 31st scholar in the college's innovative program that allows one student to travel internationally to research an independent project. The scholar is selected each year by Wofford's president as "the singular student best fitted to benefit humankind."
She's been taking care of a lot of details – banking, Department of State paperwork and more – in preparation. "The most productive way I've been preparing is by spending lots of time with family and friends. Knowing that I have a network that supports me through the great parts and the scary parts gives me the most peace of mind as I leave in just a few days."
Perret admits to being a little nervous, but she isn't new to the study abroad experience, having spent last semester in Argentina. However, with that trip she was part of a group taking classes and going on excursions together – "everything was very structured. For this trip, I'll be doing a portion in Nicaragua like that, where I'll be learning with a group of other international students and going on educational excursions. The part that is new to me is the independent portion. From early December to mid-January, I'll be independently traveling through Mexico and the Dominican Republic."
She has set up connections for her research in all of her destinations through the Wofford alumni network, friends of her family and "friends of friends (who) have reached out to me with ideas and organizations that they know of in Central America."
In her first year at Wofford, Perret was introduced to the Arcadia community, a primarily Hispanic neighborhood. "I fell in love with the children while tutoring them, and I kept getting more and more involved. The Hispanic Alliance of Spartanburg has now been meeting for almost two years, and I've learned a lot about community organizing by going to the meetings with stakeholders in the area."
As a Bonner Scholar at Wofford, Perret discovered the Global Leadership Program in Panama, where the focus is on leadership and social entrepreneurship.
"My Wofford education has everything to do with why I chose women as agents of change for my research topic," she says. "Every course I've taken at Wofford has been interdisciplinary and has challenged me to critically think about real world problems. More than anything, my Wofford education has taught me to ask the hard questions about why the world is so hard on so many and what we can do to end that struggle."
Perret, a graduate of Academic Magnet High School in Charleston, started volunteering when she was in high school, serving as the missions chair at her church, St. Andrews Parish United Methodist Church. She also has volunteered at Crisis Ministries, as a rape crisis advocate with People Against Rape, and with the American Red Cross.
She is the daughter of Pauline Hendricks Perret of Charleston, and is a Dean's List student. She chairs the corps of volunteers working with students at Arcadia Elementary School in Spartanburg School District 6 as tutors of English as a Second Language students and working to improve the environment for the young students through planning community events and applying for grants.
At Wofford, in addition to being a student staff member in the Admission Office, Perret is a member of Alpha Phi Omega, which conducts service projects on campus, in the local community and globally; Twin Towers service organization, specifically working with the local ARCH ministries to bring first graders to campus to encourage an interest in continuing education; and Spectrum, striving to create a safe space for all Wofford students regardless of gender or sexual orientation. She also is a participant in the Hispanic Alliance of Spartanburg, which builds collaboration among service providers and the Hispanic community. She is a member of Sigma Delta Pi, the Spanish honor society.
Funded by an anonymous donor, the
Presidential International Scholarship
program provides the selected student the opportunity to travel and study independently for five months during the scholar's senior year, returning for the spring semester.

Tuesday afternoon, grandfathers, parents and even some teachers ducked below some star-spangled streamers and into Mr. Jamison's fourth-grade class.
They were veterans.For a second year in a row, Jamie Jamison's class at Mallard Creek Elementary School welcomed military veterans to their room for a luncheon and several presentations of appreciation.Some students gave PowerPoint presentations outlining what they knew about the five branches of military service. Others sang original songs or recited poems of gratitude.Zaria Herriman, 9, was the chairwoman of the class' luncheon committee."I think it's nice to celebrate this because it makes them feel like they're welcome," she said. Her grandfather, Jim Herriman, agreed. "It's pretty good," he said with a smile. Herriman served in the Air Force in the 1950s."Sometimes it's nice to sit down with your children and grandchildren and talk about what you went through, because it's probably a bit different (than what they've experienced)," he said.So that's what the veterans did after the students finished their presentations.One mother, Melissa Carrara, served as a logistician in the Army from 1999 to 2002. She talked about what it was like for the country after the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks happened, which none of the students had experienced because they were born after 2001."That was a very, very scary time," Carrara told the students. She asked them whether their parents drop them off at school, and to imagine having to have their trunks and backpacks checked for bombs, saying that's what they had to do at the Army base shortly after 9/11.One dad, Martin Horne, served in the Navy for 20 years and was deployed in both Gulf Wars. He talked about the time the ship he was on, headed to the Persian Gulf nation of Bahrain, caught fire when its boiler blew up. He lost two friends in the fire.A teacher, Wayne Pickett, served in the Navy, working on aircraft carriers. "The work was hard, but we did what we had to do to serve our country," he told the students.Discussion of military service got the fourth-graders asking questions about war and American history:"What is the concept of war?" "Is there a certain reason why other countries want to fight against the United States?""Who fought in the Civil War, again?"Jamison said he looked forward to teaching more about American history, and that his students would start to learn more in depth about American history and wars next year in the fifth grade.But more than anything, Tuesday's celebration was an opportunity for the students to let veterans know that their service is appreciated."I'd like to say thank you," said Camille Robertson, 9, "because sometimes I think if they hadn't been there for us, we wouldn't be here now."Sunday, Nov. 18, 2012
4th-graders welcome military veterans
Vets accept thanks, discuss Persian Gulf, 9/11, military history

I've created this website to help sell my house in Les Allues in the heart of the Three Vallees Ski Area, and to share my experiences of living for almost twenty years in one of the worlds top ski resorts.
I first came to the Three Vallees in 1994 and since then I've run a ski chalet, got divorced (not necessarily connected), qualified as a ski instructor, been arrested (that was connected), learned to fly my para-glider, learned to climb out of trees, was known as Moutiers Ron for ten years and Rocket Ron for a bit longer.
I've had some great times over my years here, I've had 19 White Christmas's and nearly 300 weeks of ski-ing, so I should be good by now. I'm approaching my 63 rd birthday and now that I'm engaged to the lovely Jane we plan to get married and retire gracefully somewhere on the south coast of England. Well I will, Jane say's she's too young yet!
Perfect for both winter and summer with easy access to the Olympic Telecabin to Meribel Centre or the Meribus which runs via Meribel Village both within 500m of the Chalet.
The nearest large town is Moutiers (17 minutes by car) where there are 3 modern supermarkets as well as the traditional markets each Tuesday and Friday mornings.
The Eurostar runs direct from London (Paddington) and Ashford twice a week to Moutiers during the winter season. There are 4 international airports within easy reach;
Chambery 1 hr 10 minutes
Geneva 2 hrs
Lyon St Exupery 2 hrs
Grenoble St Geoirs 2 hrs

Thursday was a planned day for rope drop at Hollywood Studios, and Casey was coming with me. We caught a bus that got us there just before 8:30, and the crowd at the turnstiles wasn't too huge.
As expected, they opened the turnstiles at 8:45 and we headed in to the park, expecting to see the rope and experience the little opening show...except there was no rope. So we looked at each other and then power walked to Toy Story Mania, where, to our delight, we saw that the FPs were for 9:30, so we grabbed those before getting in line. There was only a 5 minute wait (really, a walk on) but this was also at 8:50. I was yellow, Casey was green. When we got off, we checked the standby again, but there was no indication of time, so we got back in line, thinking it would be a short wait. It moved steadily, but was about 20 minutes. I think the queue is just so awesome! I didn't even mind the wait, because I got to look at all the cool stuff. And we both improved our scores this time around. Once again, I'm yellow and Casey's green. It was around 9:30 now and our FPs were good, but we decided we'd use them later and move on for now. Voyage of the Little Mermaid was starting soon, so we got in line for that. Casey warned me that it was kind of a strange show and that the whole movie is crammed into 15 minutes. I thought these items in the holding room were cool. And here are some photos from the show. It was a bit of a bizarre show-especially the video montage that crammed about 80% of the movie into about 3 minutes or less. But I'm glad I finally got to try it! After that we headed down Sunset Boulevard to Tower of Terror to get a FP, then on to Rock 'n' Roller Coaster. Single rider line was closed and the stand by line was only 20 minutes, so we got in line. Over the first two weeks, I went through the stand by lines for Space Mountain, Soarin', Test Track, and Rock 'n' Roller Coaster for the first time! Upon boarding our limo, I was a little nervous. Casey told me I had to keep my eyes open for the launch because it's much better that way. We launched and I did keep my eyes open; the whole ride was less intense than I remembered, and I'll take that one over Space Mountain any day! We stopped at a bathroom and then went to use our ToT FPs. I love FP so much because we were able to walk right into the library, and then had a short wait for our elevator. I was freaking out a little bit before we started dropping, but once again, it's never as bad as I think it's going to be. Beauty and the Beast was going to start at 11:30 and it was about 11:15, but I needed a snack and Casey was hungry too. We stopped at Anaheim Produce and I got a pretzel and she got apple slices with caramel dip. Then we headed over to the Theater of the Stars just a few minutes before the show started. We were seated towards the top on the right facing the stage. I tried to take a few pictures but we weren't in the best location, so I stopped, but here are a couple. Oh I just love that show! And Beauty and the Beast is Casey's favorite musical ever, so she loves it too. Now it was around noon and we had done almost everything we wanted to, so we walked back to Toy Story Mania. When we showed the CM our FPs (window from 9:30-10:30) he said, "You know you're really late". I have no idea if he was kidding or not, but Casey and I both said that we know they are valid all day, and he let us through. (This was before they started enforcing return windows.) There was literally no wait until we got to grouping, where we're pretty sure a new CP was being trained because he kind of forgot about us and was only taking people from the stand by line. But after a few minutes we were on our way. This time I was green and Casey was yellow. My last request for the day was to go to Writer's Stop and get a carrot cake cookie. So that's where we went, and Casey got a gingerbread Mickey. The cookie was so much bigger than I was expecting! And it was heavy! But oh so good. I only ate half, and I'm a little ashamed to admit I had the other half for breakfast the next day. Casey also enjoyed her gingerbread. There was a bus coming soon, so we headed out and saw that it was at the stop, in the charter lot. But of course there are fences and cross walks so we were running, hoping the driver wouldn't leave...and thankfully he didn't, but that was our exercise for the day! The cookie was so much bigger than I was expecting! And it was heavy! But oh so good. I only ate half, and I'm a little ashamed to admit I had the other half for breakfast today. Casey also enjoyed her gingerbread. There was a bus coming soon, so we headed out and saw that it was at the stop, in the charter lot. But of course there are fences and cross walks so we were running, hoping the driver wouldn't leave...and thankfully he didn't but that was our exercise for the day! Upon returning to the apartment, I took a nap and Casey went to WalMart. Then we decided to head out to Magic Kingdom and catch the 5pm bus. We didn't realize that their was an International College Program (ICP) graduation, but coming out of Chatham there were a ton of people dressed up and wearing graduation mouse ears. And of course they all got on our bus. Plus it was rush hour, which we didn't think about (it's Disney, who can be bothered with such mundane things?) and therefore the bus got stuck in the I-Drive/535/536 traffic (if you've ever experienced it, you know how bad it can be). Thankfully a lot of the ICPs got off at Vista, and then we continued on to MK-once we hit Disney property the traffic wasn't nearly as bad. We took the monorail from the TTC and entered the park, deciding to do a circle. One of our neighbors and another friend of Casey's both worked at the Tomorrowland Speedway, so we went over there to see if they were greeting, but they weren't. The line was 30 minutes, but that was longer than we wanted to wait, so we headed into Fantasyland. Pooh: 40 minutes. Snow White: 15 minutes. We got in line and it was more like 5 minutes. Continuing on, Peter Pan: 40 minutes. it's a small world: 5 minutes. Let's go! We basically walked on. Since I didn't get to eat at Columbia Harbour House a few nights earlier and Casey enjoys it as well, we decided to go there for dinner...only to find that it closed at 5. We had already passed Pinocchio's so it seemed like our next option was Pecos Bill's. Ugh. So in we went...to find that only two registers were open and there was a humungous crowd of people. It seriously took like 15 minutes to get up to the order podium. Then the CMs distributing the food were very confused. A lot of the sections were already roped off for the night, but we did manage to find an empty table...with ketchup smeared on it. Gross. The pulled pork sandwich was just okay, and the fries were gross-limp, but not cold. After that disaster, we walked over to Splash Mountain to find a 5 minute wait. While it wasn't chilly, it wasn't 80 degrees anymore either, but we got on anyway and ended up in the back row. There was a logjam (pun intended) several times throughout the ride, which quickly got annoying. As we descended the first small drop, we decided this was probably a bad idea and prayed we would stay dry. Casey did get a little wet on one of the small drops, but because ducked and covered on the big one, we did stay mostly dry! When we exited and saw the ride photo, you couldn't even see us because we had leaned forward so far! Casey wanted to walk by Pirates to see if anyone she knew was working and to find out why it had been down all day. Well, there was a safety issue that required half of the ride to be drained for it to be fixed-not cool. It was quickly nearing 7:45 and The Magic, The Memories, and You would be starting at any moment-Casey's favorite Disney show and something I'd never seen. We ran to Main Street and grabbed a spot just as it began. I really liked it and thought it was awesome. Between it and Wishes we got Mickey ice cream bars/sandwiches from a nearby cart and then reclaimed our spots. I put my earplugs in and we watched Wishes-first time this trip watching from inside the park and my first time ever watching it from the Hub area. It was so awesome! Wishes comes in second only to IllumiNations as my favorite fireworks show. Knowing that the crush of people would soon begin, I turned and began heading for Casey's Corner to go through the stores and out to Town Square. Casey didn't know the restaurant connected to the stores, but was pleased to find out it did when it helped us avoid the huge crowds. We decided to take the ferry boat back to the TTC, which seemed like a good idea until we saw all the mosquitoes everywhere. We braved them and soon we were back at the bus lot, waiting for our bus. They sent out a fifth bus that doesn't normally run to pick us up; they must have known the ICP graduation was that day, along with the fact that new CPs had just arrived. We arrived home shortly before 9:30 and headed to bed by 10:30.

Six down, 2 to go: Phelps smashes own WR in 200 IM
BEIJING -- Michael Phelps collected the sixth gold medal and stuffed it in his warmup jacket. No time to even savor that one as he rushed off to swim again.
It was just No. 6, after all, equaling his haul from Athens in 2004.
The most important ones are still to come.
Phelps made it 6-for-6 at the Beijing Games with another world-record triumph Friday, his bid to take down Mark Spitz and the grandest of Olympic records looking less suspenseful by the day.
The American hung on the lane rope in a familiar pose after winning the 200-meter individual medley but showed little emotion other than raising his left arm when his time of 1 minute, 54.23 seconds flashed on the board -- more than two seconds ahead of the next guy.
With that, he quickly moved on.
"The next two races are pretty important," said Phelps, whose sixth world record in China erased his own mark of 1:54.80 at last month's U.S. trials. "I have to conserve as much physical and emotional energy as I can."
Phelps matched his wins from Athens, where he also collected two bronzes. He's already the winningest athlete in Olympic history with 12 golds, but his sights are on eight in Beijing.
Spitz won seven golds at the 1972 Munich Games. Phelps has two more events to leave any doubt he's the greatest Olympian ever.
Ryan Lochte tried to pull off a daunting double, going against Phelps just 29 minutes after winning the 200 backstroke. He couldn't keep up, though he did hold on for bronze. Laszlo Cseh of Hungary picked up his third silver of the games -- all of them trailing Phelps.
"It's not a shame," Cseh said, "to be beaten by a better one."
When the official times were posted, Phelps extended his right hand to Lochte in the next lane. The friends shook hands and patted each other on the head.
Later, they yukked it up on the medal stand before Phelps hustled off to grab his racing gear; he had to come right back for the semifinals of the 100 butterfly.
"I switched from my dress sweats to my parka, shoes, threw my cap and goggles on and then they pushed us on out. No time," he said. "The medal was in my warmup jacket."
History can't wait.
A half-hour after winning another gold, Phelps was second-fastest behind Milorad Cavic of Croatia in the 100 fly, setting himself up to tie Spitz's record in Saturday's final. World record-holder Ian Crocker of the U.S. bounced back from a disappointing swim in the prelims to post the third-fastest time.
"There wasn't much time," Phelps said, "but I think there's going to be a lot of time for me to rest over the next 18 hours or so, and I'll be able to be ready for tomorrow morning's 100."
Forde: Everybody else
Friday was full of great stories from the Water Cube. But all of them were overshadowed by one man. Chalk it up to bad timing, folks. You all were born at the wrong time, in the era of the Phelps Dynasty. Story
If all goes according to plan, Phelps will get No. 7 in the fly -- his signature stroke -- and have the coronation Sunday in the 400 medley relay. The Americans are always heavily favored for gold in that one.
Nevertheless, he's taking nothing for granted, especially in the fly. Crocker has the best time ever (though it was three years ago) and Cavic looked strong in both the preliminaries and semifinals.
"It's never a relief," he said. "Tomorrow is going to be a tough race. For me to be a player in that race, I have to be closer at the 50. If I'm not, then it will be tough. I was over a body length behind at the 50 in the prelims and came up a bit short, so I have to be there."
Still, he showed little signs of tiring from the grueling schedule. He's already raced 15 times and has two more left -- both going for gold.
"I actually don't feel too bad now," Phelps said.
That can't be encouraging for those swimmers who've come up with all sorts of amusing theories for Phelps' dominance. He's from outer space. He's come back from the future in a time machine. He's some sort of human rocket.
The official Xinhua News Agency dubbed Phelps "the American superfish."
For those who believe Phelps might be using more illicit methods to produce these times, he shot down any speculation about doping.
"Anybody can say whatever they want, but I know I'm clean," said Phelps, who took part in a special U.S. anti-doping program that subjected him to additional, more sophisticated testing. "People can question it all they want, but the facts are the facts. I have the results to prove it."
Phelps' win was the 21st world record set in swimming during the Olympics, with two days left.
Two days that could make history.

Michael Phelps has become the most decorated gold medalist in history, winning eight gold medals in a single Games. Here's a review of what we saw from this super American swimmer in Beijing:
• Coverage | Schedule | Results | Phelps news
• Pat Forde's breakdown: Phelps bettered Mark Spitz's record of seven gold medials, set at the 1972 Munich Games. Here is a review of Phelps' races at Beijing. Story• Race No. 1 -- 400-meter IM: Phelps kept pace with teammate Ryan Lochte and László Cseh in his weakest discipline, the breaststroke, before putting the hammer down in the freestyle to win his first gold of the Games. Story | Forde's take
• Race No. 2 -- 4x100 free relay: Phelps almost saw his run end, but Jason Lezak came back in the final leg to help the U.S. men edge France to win gold in one of the most memorable relay races in Olympic history. Story | Forde's take
• Race No. 3 -- 200 freestyle: Phelps easily won his third gold of the Games and ninth of his career in one of his strongest events. He also broke his own world record (1:42.96). Story | Caple's take

Higher ed advocates focus on retirement benefits
While higher education issues seem hidden behind state gun control and uranium mining discussions at the Capitol so far, professors from VCU and other schools are urging legislators to improve retirement benefits for public university and college employees. Pushing for more funding for higher education, better faculty retirement options and lower tuition for in-state residents, three groups spearheaded the task of getting their voices heard last week. Officials from the Faculty Senate of Virginia, the VCU Faculty Senate and the American Association of University Professors met at legislative offices Thursday morning. Their first order of business was to push for educators' retirement benefits. House Bill 486, sponsored by Delegate Onzlee Ware, D-Roanoke, aims to create better retirement incentives for public higher education employees. The bill would allow such workers, who currently have optional retirement plans, to opt in to the Virginia Retirement System. Employees who wish to maintain an optional retirement plan, and were hired after July 2010, would be provided between 8.5 and 8.9 percent "creditable compensation" from the commonwealth. All other employees would be entitled to a rate of 10.4 percent creditable compensation from the state. Creditable compensation constitutes all the salary and wages paid to a full-time, salaried higher education employee as a result of services performed. It also includes payments for compensatory time, severance pay or employer-provided payment for the purchase of service credit in the VRS. The purpose of HB 486 is to give state employees in the higher education system the opportunity to purchase service credit in the VRS based on accumulated earnings and experience, even if those workers are covered under an optional retirement program. "Many employees come in untenured, so they have a choice whether they want to participate in an optional retirement plan or the VRS, since optional retirement plans are portable and can be taken to other systems. But if you get here [Virginia] and you realize how great it is, then you might wish that you had signed in to the VRS," said Robert Andrews, organizer of the 2013 Higher Education Advocacy Day. "The bill makes it so down the road, once [employees] get tenured, they can make a one-time swap to buy equivalent amount of work time in the VRS," said Andrews, a professor in the VCU School of Business and an officer in the VCU Faculty Senate. "It's certainly revenue neutral, and it's really important for state employees to buy in to this established benefit plan." In addition to retirement benefits, education lobbyists are also looking to provide financial benefits to educators' families. Senate Bill 104, introduced by Democratic Sen. John Edwards of Roanoke, would reduce the tuition rate for children of Virginia higher education employees by 50 percent. Currently, state universities and colleges can decide individually whether to waive tuition for their employees' children. SB 104 would ensure that all state institutions implement the reduction immediately. "Growing up with a mother as a college professor, you really gain a perspective into how valuable higher education is," said junior Alex Wells of George Mason University. "I think that being proactive in the House and Senate really shows that we're committed to the long-term prosperity of prospective students and faculty in Virginia." Participants in Higher Education Advocacy Day also expressed a need for more state funding to make college tuition more affordable for future students. Members are seeking legislative action to filter more than $200 million for state tuition assistance, as well as more than $2 billion in employer-based financing towards the VRS program. "We're important in supporting higher education and maintaining credibility against voices on the other side who feel that they don't have any responsibility to contribute to higher education," Andrews said. "If we don't have competitive institutions that have the financial resources to provide quality faculty members, or opportunities for students to have more feasible access to college, then we inevitably suffer in attracting professional businesses to our state." |

crazy crafter's Note:
When I was growing up my mom made a version of this every fall to help get rid of the apples that were starting to wrinkle and weren't bad just yet and she'd make apple jelly with the juice too. I hope you like it as much as my family did and now my neighbors do :)
My Private Note
Serves: 6-8
Units: US | Metric
- 1Quarter your apples (no need to remove peel or seeds).
- 2In a large stock pot add your apples and fill with water--just enough to cover the apples.
- 3Add your sugar.
- 4Wrap your cinnamon and allspice in a doubled up cheese cloth and tie, and add this to the apples and water.
- 5Boil on high for one hour (uncovered) checking on it frequently.
- 6Turn down heat and let simmer for two hours (covered).
- 7Take off the heat after two hours of simmering and let cool.
- 8Remove spices and mash up the apples to a pulp like consistency (a potato masher works well for this).
- 9Once cool pour into a strainer over a large bowl. When most of the juice has drained away, put the remainder of the pulp into a doubled up cheese cloth and squeeze over the bowl until no more juice comes out.
- 10(At this point you can either restrain the juice to get out the little bits of pulp that remain with a cheese cloth draped inside the strainer to catch them or just leave it like I do).
- 11You can store in an air tight container in your refrigerator for up to a week or you can freeze it for later use if you like.
- 12Reheat in the microwave or on the stove and enjoy either plain or you can add caramel syrup or caramels, whipped topping with cinnamon or, like my neighbors did if you like it really sweet, with marshmallows or marshmallow creme.
- 13also you could make this a diabetic recipe by omitting the sugar and adding diabetic sweeteners to taste in place of the sugar or none at all.

The annual glitches started coming out for me today. Some guy kept firing clappers from the corner and they went in about 25% of the time. Give it enough time and everyone will be doing them once they catch on.
This was an issue in NHL 14 also, if you skate up the ice and through the circles going at a wide and bad angle, and release a slapshot between the bottom of the circle and the goalie line aiming high short side it will go in 90% of the time if executed properly. My friend has shown me a video of a guy he played against in HUT that went 5 for 6 attempting this shot from the same spot in the same game.
It is also insanely easy to score on the one timer if you aim your shot at the direction the pass came from, the goalie always over-commits.

New basin taps are a great way to upgrade your bathroom. Look out for versions with an eco click mechanism, as they'll help you and your family control how much water you use. If one of your taps is dripping, try to fix it promptly - otherwise it'll stain your bath or sink and cause erosion inside the mechanism of the tap.

Children lend talents to playground design
By Traci Chapman
A new playground at Youth and Family Services' shelter is a step closer after area children leant their voices and ideas to the project.
Community members braved the cold last week to take part in the design session, which will result in an April 12 construction of equipment to replace the playground destroyed by last year's May 31 tornado, YFS executive director Dee Blose said. It was through residents' generosity, as well as a partnership with an Oklahoma energy company and KaBOOM!, that allowed the project to move forward, she said.
"We've been so blessed with everyone's generosity and help," Blose said. "We've been overwhelmed at the support we've received."
Devon Energy worked with KaBOOM!, a national non-profit agency dedicated to helping children have access to activities that make their lives better, Blose said. Representatives from the organization assessed hard-hit areas throughout Oklahoma after the May 31 storm and selected YFS as a candidate for assistance. KaBOOM! Then partnered with Devon, which had pledged $2.5 million for tornado relief programs throughout the state.
"We will have more than 200 volunteers out here to construct the playground equipment this spring," Blose said. "It's an exciting undertaking."
Along with KaBOOM! Organizers and YFS employees, Devon employees and other volunteers will gather April 12 to build the playground, Blose said.
Youth and Family Services works in Canadian, Blaine, Kingfisher and Oklahoma counties, Blose said. Of those areas, 55 percent of services are rendered to people in Canadian County, she said.
The 10 programs offered by the agency include the children and youth emergency shelter; foster care; transitional living services; youth and child homeless programs; community counseling; youth workforce investment programs; Smart Start; maternity services; Bee's Knees, an art program for young adults with special needs; and The Spot, a meeting place for youth highlighting health and wellness in Watonga. Of Youth and Family Service's roughly $2 million annual budget, the vast majority funds the emergency shelter and transitional/homeless programs – which comprise 23 percent and 29 percent of the agency's total expenditures, respectively, Blose said.
While the shelter is only part of what YFS does, being able to move forward with something important to those children goes a long way toward healing after the storm, Blose said.
"When a child comes into the shelter it's a traumatic experience for them, and it may seem small but being able to go outside, to play and to run, can be very therapeutic," she said. "For the children to have been a part of designing this is very gratifying."
"A playground is more than a playground – it helps these children get out and move, get exercise, make friends, have clarity," she said. "This is much more than what it might seem on the surface, and we are so lucky to have this opportunity."

Pirates sink Bronco girls' ship
By Kyle Salomon
Despite senior center Brooke Irwin scoring a game-high 21 points and grabbing 11 rebounds, Mustang dropped a 64-50 decision to Putnam City Feb. 11.
With the win over the Bronco ladies, Putnam City completed the season sweep of Mustang.
Sophomore guard Addyson Lawson had 13 points and three rebounds, and senior forward Laci Joyner finished with five points and five rebounds.
"I thought we played a pretty decent first and third periods," Mustang head coach Kevin Korstjens said. "In the second and fourth it was a different story. I thought we let them dictate how the game was played a little bit."
Mustang trailed the Lady Pirates by three points at halftime, but Putnam City outscored the Broncos 34-23 in the second half.
Mustang finished the game with 30 rebounds, forced the Pirates into 14 turnovers, committed 18 turnovers, and made 18 out of 25 free throws.
Lady Broncos heading south for regional action
Mustang will play in the Norman North regional on Feb. 27 and 28. Norman North, Lawton Ike and Edmond North are the other three teams taking part in the tournament.
The Broncos will take on Lawton Ike Feb. 27 in the first-round game.
Former PTA president pleads guilty to embezzlement, forgery charges
By Traci Chapman
A former Mustang Centennial Elementary PTA president last week plead guilty to embezzling more than $900 from that organization.
Jennifer Marie Young, 32, entered a guilty plea stemming from two felony counts – one each of embezzlement and forgery – filed in Canadian County District Court in August 2013. According to court documents, Young used PTA checks for her own use, paying her personal wireless, electric and water accounts, as well as more than $147 for tanning membership fees.
"She later assumed the duties of treasurer of that organization as well," stated Mustang detective Michael Adams in an Aug. 16, 2013, affidavit. "In November 2011, she used the funds from a previous bank to open a checking account in the name of CEPTA at a new bank.
"The defendant made herself the sole signer to this account," he said.
State and national Parent Teacher Association guidelines mandate the position of treasurer be maintained separately from any other officer, and checks should be signed by more than one person. While Young's actions were against PTA rules, no further action against the Mustang woman was expected, officials said.
Young was sentenced by Canadian County Special Judge Jack McCurdy to a one-year suspended jail sentence, as well as supervised probation, restitution and court costs and fines.
The guilty plea was not the first time Young admitted to embezzlement. In a December 2011 case, the Mustang woman was charged with six felony counts in connection with her employment as property manager at East Hills Condos. Young was accused in that case of taking more than $3,600.
On Aug. 22, 2013, Assistant District Attorney Austin Murrey filed an application requesting the court issue an arrest warrant for Young due to the new charges and her alleged failure to report to a probation officer and pay restitution and probation fees monthly, as required by her plea in the 2011 case.
Girls struggle against Santa Fe
By Kyle Salomon
The Mustang girls basketball team scored a season low Friday night in a 52-20 loss at home against Edmond Santa Fe. The Bronco ladies scored eight points halfway through the first period, but were only able to put 12 more on the board the remainder of the game.
The loss made it a season sweep for Edmond Santa Fe over Mustang, and dropped the Broncos' overall record to 6-15.
No Mustang players scored in double figures. Senior center Brooke Irwin led the Broncos with six points and six rebounds. Sophomore guard Addyson Lawson also had six points and grabbed three rebounds.
"It was a tough night," Mustang head coach Kevin Korstjens said. "We turned the ball over way too many times to compete with a team as good as Santa Fe. We have to put this one behind us and focus on what we have in front of us."
Midway through the first period the Bronco ladies had an 8-4 lead, but the Timberwolves went on a 20-0 run.
The Broncos managed to score just four points in 12 minutes of play from the midpoint of the first period until halftime.
The Lady Broncos scored only two points in the third period. MHS was able to tack on six points in the fourth.
The Broncos ended the night with 27 total rebounds, 12 forced Santa Fe turnovers, 27 committed turnovers, and made 12 out of 15 free throws.
Commissioners eye new fairground proposal
By Rex Hogan
Canadian County commissioners took "a first step" Tuesday to find out what can be done to help build a new fairgrounds that would include a modern multi-purpose event center. The proposed new fairgrounds could be located on county-owned land, just east of the Gary E. Miller Children's Justice Center on state Highway 66. The site is just west of Banner Road, about halfway between Yukon and El Reno.
Mustang businessman Ken Carpenter, chairman of the Fair Board Building Committee, told commissioners at their regular weekly meeting that the time is right for the county to have a first-class "revenue-raising" events center.
Carpenter said the current fairgrounds in El Reno was created in the 1950s and is not adequate to accommodate events.
The Fair Board Building Committee is proposing a 5,000-seat multi-purpose event center be built on the 160-acre state Highway 66 site. Carpenter said such a center could host a number of events, from high school graduations to agriculture events and sporting events.
Commission Chairman Phil Carson said the county is in need of a center like this. He pointed out Garfield and Grady counties have event centers that host an array of events.
El Reno Mayor Matt White said the idea needs more study.
"I'm not here to pick a fight, but I'm disappointed in the process. I don't know where you're posting meeting notices, I haven't seen one," White said. "No one has talked to us (the city) and we want to be part of the process. It just seems to me there's a lot of loose ends."
Fair Board Building Committee member Dan Wedman of Calumet said the committee "hasn't talked to any city. We're not trying to run around you. We're not operating in a veil of secrecy," Wedman said.
Commissioner David Anderson recommended county financial advisers be brought into the discussion to help determine the scope of the project.
Wrestlers ready for regional
By Kyle Salomon
Mustang wrestlers will return to action Friday at Southmoore for regional competition after having nearly two weeks off from live matches.
The Broncos grappling team will be one of 15 teams from the west side of the state competing at the regional tournament.
How well the Mustang wrestlers finish in the two-day event will determine if the entire team or if several individuals go to the state tournament, which takes place Feb. 28 and March 1 at the Oklahoma City fairgrounds.
"I am really excited about how we finished the season as a team," Mustang head coach Dave Rankin said. "I feel like we are wrestling our best coming down the stretch into regionals. It was good to have a break so we could get healed up and prepare as best we can for the postseason."
The other 14 teams that will be at Southmoore are Choctaw, Edmond Memorial, Edmond North, Edmond Santa Fe, Lawton Ike, Lawton, Moore, Norman, Norman North, Putnam City, Putnam City North, Putnam City West, Southmoore, U.S. Grant, Westmoore and Yukon.
"We know it is going to be a tough challenge," Rankin said. "But we are a confident group right now. I'm excited to see how we perform this weekend."
Here are the Mustang wrestlers who will be competing in the 14 different weights in the tournament.
In the 106-pound weight class, it will be Jason Clark for the Broncos. In the 113-pound weight division, Corbin Hardin will go to battle for Mustang. Trey Edwards will compete in the 120-pound weight class for MHS.
In the 126-pound weight division, Gage McBride will wrestle for Mustang. In the 132-pound weight bracket, Gareth Ballard will take the mat for the Broncos. Jordan Kalmeyer will compete in the 138-pound weight class for MHS.
In the 145-pound weight class, Robert King will represent the Bronco squad. Zac Julian will take the mat for Mustang in the 152-pound weight bracket. In the 160-pound weight division, it will be Redmon Wilkerson competing for the Broncos.
In the 170-pound weight class, Zach Butler will grapple for MHS. David McCright will compete in the 182-pound weight division for Mustang. In the 195-pound weight bracket, the Bronco coaches will choose between Mark Casteneda and Caden Truelove on who represents Mustang in the tournament.
In the 220-pound weight class, Clay Feland will take the mat for the Broncos, and in the 285-pound heavyweight division, Dylan Needham will compete for Mustang.

Great seeds - wish I liked radishes
By Tony
from Apex, NC
Best Uses
Comments about Sparkler Radish Seeds:
I planted radishes with my lettuce at my brother's suggestion. These are the ones I ordered and they did fantastic. The only problem (and it's not a problem with the product) is that I still don't like radishes. I planted them hoping that I would develop a taste for them. Well, I never did... so my wife ate them and I shared the rest with my neighbors. But these seeds produced and that's all that matters.

Research and trend analysis can be powerful for not just SEO, but content creation in general. It's something the best content creators do in our industry and it will (and should) continue. I don't consider that SEO per se. Keyword gap analysis and trends help writers identify larger opportunities to solve problems that a target audience is seeking answers for.
Whether it's rewarded by Google or not is irrelevant. I'd much rather create a one of a kind utility that solves deep problems in an industry and have Forbes, Inc.com and HBR feature and write about it on their sites. Why? Because those sites deliver traffic that converts at 40% or more. Non-branded search traffic converts at 1% on average in our industry.
I don't believe on-page SEO will have dominance - Google's getting too good at semantic search. Identifying exact keyword combinations and executing them on-page won't be necessary in the near future. Google will know vernacular A is equal to B. The SERPs are already reflecting this.
When I write about "the signals created by an audience," I'm not just talking about social signals. Audiences create way more than just social signals. A robust audience will cite and write about content they encounter on the sites they frequent (how the link graph is supposed to work). In addition to social signals and citations, they frequently leave comments that keep the content dynamically active for days or even weeks. Search engines love this.
That's why I believe the future of search is purely audience building. Any other way and manual or algorithmic penalties are a grave possibility.
That's great to hear! I thought they'd be nuts to disallow links.
Thanks for finding that info Dave.
Ah, I'm not the only one. . .
I'm hoping this is just a glitch Deanna. Stay tuned. LinkedIn should release a statement once all their contributors start complaining in 3. . . 2. . . 1
Thanks Jim! I'm very familiar with that study and actually covered it on LinkedIn the week prior.
You're absolutely write about what this study means, too. I very glad they did it.
I agree with your comment. It actually reaffirms what I was trying to get across in the article. What I describe above is difficult and does indeed require investment that some small businesses may find challenging. In fact, Dharmesh's quote he gave me speaks to that issue. I also believe what you believe - that links and guest blogging are not dead. It's guest blogging at scale and some of the other things described above that makes link building around "flimsy" content dangerous for all businesses.
