Check PSA, they have a sale right now and their basic AR looks like a pretty solid build. If the money was in the account I would have already ordered.
quite a few, do your research well, and choose the one thatchu think will make you happiest. that's what it all boils down to. you can build a good rifle for that price, plus buy enough ammo to shoot it for a while.

Edinboro University selected for ACE Change and Innovation Lab
05/01/2014WASHINGTON, D.C. — The American Council on Education (ACE) has chosen Edinboro University to participate in a groundbreaking initiative designed to increase the number of first-generation and nontraditional students who attain college degrees.
Edinboro is one of nine institutions that will work during the 18-month Change and Innovation Lab (CIL) project to implement concrete steps on their campuses and identify how some of these practices can be applied at colleges and universities across the country. The project is being supported by a $400,000 grant from Lumina Foundation.
"We were thrilled to be one of only nine colleges and universities in the country selected for this funded project," said Edinboro President Julie E. Wollman. "We wrote a proposal that demonstrated our commitment to the project's goals — improving retention and graduation for low-income, first-generation, and non-traditional students."
Also participating in the Change and Innovation Lab are Brandman University in California; Cambridge College, Massachusetts; Georgia Gwinnett College; Graceland University, Missouri; Hiram College, Ohio; Lehman College, New York; Mercy College, New York; and Winthrop University, South Carolina.
"The institutions that are participating in the Change and Innovation Lab are engaged in meaningful exploration of initiatives aimed at mobilizing higher education to increase student success and attainment nationwide," said ACE President Molly Corbett Broad.
ACE convened the initial meeting of the CIL in early April in Washington, D.C. The event was attended by campus teams that included each institution's president or chancellor and chief academic officer. President Wollman; Provost and Vice President for Academic Affairs Michael Hannan; Vice President for Student Affairs Kahan Sablo; and Dr. Jean Jones, director of the Dr. Robert C. Weber Honors Program and local president of APSCUF, the faculty union, represented Edinboro.
"Our work at the CIL meeting was an intensive team process whereby we determined a key problem preventing us from greater degree attainment, what barriers were in the way, and what were multiple potential solutions," President Wollman said. "It was wonderful to work across academics and student affairs and with our faculty union leader — we got so much done because our team included the key constituents to make a difference when we got back to campus."
The criteria for selecting CIL institutions were designed to encourage high-access institutions to participate, including colleges and universities that enroll large numbers of Pell Grant recipients, have a history of serving or the capacity to serve post-traditional learners, and are interested in using technology and data to improve attainment rates.
"Campus leaders engaged in the Change and Innovation Lab are both systematically planning their own transformation efforts, with a focus on change leadership, faculty engagement, and the smart use of data, and helping us to develop templates and promising practices that can be applied more broadly," said Cathy A. Sandeen, ACE's vice president for education attainment and innovation. "The work being undertaken here is an important step in achieving the type of transformational change that is needed to reach ambitious national attainment goals."

Classical Remix: Pierre Boulez
Welcome to Rhapsody's Classical Remix Portal, which you can follow here. In every playlist, we present classical works in their original forms. Then, after each one is over, we give you an upstart musician's rethink.
As a conductor, Pierre Boulez is famed for clarity and accuracy. As a composer, he's never finished with a work, a reality that leads to revisions upon revisions of pieces that might have been "published" decades ago. The man is his own most fervent remixer! Keeping the versions of each creation straight can become somewhat difficult.
That's why the Classical Remix desk is here. We've grouped several of Boulez's most notorious self-revision jobs back-to-back, the better to help you get a handle on these complex modern works. It's exciting to hear, for example, how the maestro has revised some of the miniature "Notations" (for solo piano) by turning them into thumping, grand-orchestra items. (We've put the four widely available orchestral versions next to their corresponding piano versions, in the order the orchestra pieces are performed.)
Simply checking out Pierre Laurent-Aimard's version of Notation No. 4 for piano, and then the Wiener Philharmoniker's version of the "Rhythmique" stylized for symphonic blast, does a lot to undermine the critique of Boulez's music as so coldly avant-garde that it's unmemorable. The slashing drive of Boulez can make quite an impression. And his quiet moments have an enveloping mystery, too. There's atonality of course, but also a hint of French impressionism in the gliding dynamics of a piece like "Incises" for piano.
In an odd twist of circumstance, the fact that Boulez seems to obsessively rework his compositions can help us perceive these qualities, with each new version giving us another opportunity to hear what's happening in the composer's head. Most intriguing among the revised works is the duo of Anthemes 1, for solo violin, and Anthemes 2, for solo violin and live electronic processing. (Yes, Boulez pioneered live electronic processing in classical music decades ago. Chalk it up to being a visionary.)
The two versions of this piece are never grouped together on single albums, for whatever obscure reason, so turn to our playlist for a performance of the original (Track 9), and then the electronically tricked-out edition (Tracks 10-18). From the latter version, the movement titled "VI-1 Allant" is particularly cool. See the rest of our mix for more striking redrafts, including two very different versions of Derive 2, at the end of the playlist. And because movement-titling on classical releases is sometimes a bit incomplete, you can consult the tracklist below to know which version of which composition you're listening to.
Tracks 1-8: Four "Notations" (alternating versions for solo piano and orchestra)
Track 9: Anthemes 1 (for solo violin)
Tracks 10-18: Anthemes 2 (for violin and live electronics)
Track 19: Incises (for solo piano, 2001 revision)
Tracks 20-21: Sur Incises (for 3 pianos, 3 harps, 3 percussionists, 1998 version)
Track 22: Dérive 2 (2002 version)
Track 23: Dérive 2 (2006 version)

In 1984, when does the novel begin?
1 Answer | Add Yours
The novel officially begins on April 4th 1984 (the reverse year of when Orwell wrote the novel which was 1948, thus he was writing about a future dystopia). The day is described as "a bright cold day in April, and the clocks were striking thirteen" with a "vile wind" blowing (p.3). This time of season and weather condition adds to the bleakness of the mood being created by Orwell as the novel opens. The clocks striking an hour which does not exist in a regular striking clock pattern is also significant as it foreshadows a society which has made major structural changes to basic institutions to suit its own purposes.
We know the date is April 4th because Winston has plucked up the courage to start writing a diary, which is a highly illegal act in itself attracting harsh punishments. It is significant that Winston, even though a government employee, cannot be sure of the exact date. He is only guessing based on his age of which he appears to be not entirely certain. This helps the reader to form a picture of a society where the citizenry are shielded from even knowing the most basic information related to exact time, suggesting it must be one of many measures to keep them ill informed for the sake of maintaining control.

Medical Edge: Superbugs
CINCINNATI (Liz Bonis) -- That minor bug we used to cure with a quick prescription might become the very thing that puts you in the hospital.
Medical reporter Liz Bonis asks experts at TriHealth about superbugs in Thursday's Medical Edge.
Mary Groh was back home after cancer treatment recently when suddenly she noticed, I didnt' feel well, I didn't know what was the matter.
When her doctor took a quick blood test, He said go right to the hospital, don't go home, don't pack a bag, go right to the hospital.
Once there she found out not only was a bacterial infection spreading rapidly in her body but she also had pneumonia. Both are common health concerns that are fairly easy to treat with antibiotics. But a new report from the Centers for Disease Control says we are entering into a new era of Superbugs.
This means bacteria are mutating and outsmarting traditional treatments. The problem is that could lead to a major health concern where a simple antibiotic that used to treat a problem doesn't anymore.
That means you could die of that problem when we used to be able to cure it.
Dr. Stephen Blatt said, If the antibiotics stop working for routine bacterial infections then you may see patients dying of illnesses we could cure 2 or 3 years ago.
Doctor Stephen Blatt is an infection control specialist who's been closely following this trend.
We are starting to run into problems as the bacteria become more resistant, we are starting to see some infections that are very difficult to treat, in fact, resistant to the antibiotics we have used for years.
Mary Groh is one of the lucky ones, she says within days her infection and pneumonia did respond to the antibiotics she was given.
She says now on a scale of one to ten in terms of how much better she feels, Today? Ten, that is a miracle antibiotic, and I hope I never become resistant to it!
Others however may not be so lucky.
The one that's become really infamous lately is called CRE and that's a kind of bacteria that routinely had caused minor urinary tract infections but is now starting to become much more resistant to antibiotics and in some cases, especially in patients who've been hospitalized, we are running completely out of antibiotics to treat that organism.
In some cases older antibiotics are tried but many can cause serious complications, such as liver and kidney damage.
Doctor Blatt says the only real answer is in new treatments for these superbugs, otherwise, Patients are going to succumb to those resistant infections where we could have cured them in the recent past.
Those new treatments may have to be funded through government research, there's not a lot of profit for pharmaceutical companies to make superbug antibiotics.

Buffalo, NY (WBEN) Today is the first day of spring, and we're looking back at a winter to remember.
This winter will be best remembered for having two blizzards, but National Weather Service meteorologist Jon Hitchcock says they impacted different areas. "The first one was the lake effect blizzard off Lake Erie that affected metro Buffalo, Erie, Wyoming and Genesee Counties. The second one the worst conditions were in Niagara and Orleans Counties with winds off of Lake Ontario," explains Hitchcock.
It's been quite a snowy winter. "We're up to 120 inches for the year and we're not done yet," says Hitchcock as we could see more snow in the next couple of weeks. The average amount of snow is about 95 inches.
Spend a lot of time shivering? You're not alone, it was one of the coldest winters on record too. "If you just count the meteorological window of December to February we're about 20th. But if you widen that window out to November through March, if it's as cold as we think it is, this winter could reach top five in cold," predicts Hitchcock.

17 New Mexico Lobos (19-11)
@BYU Cougars (27-3)
Wednesday, March 02
Marriott Center
Attendance: 22,700
17 New Mexico
Provo, UT (Sports Network) - New Mexico just has BYU's number.
Phillip McDonald scored 26 points and Drew Gordon posted 15 points and 16 rebounds, as the Lobos knocked off the third-ranked Cougars for the second time this season in authoritative fashion, 82-64, at the Marriott Center.
Kendall Williams also chipped in 15 points and Dairese Gary donated 11 points and five rebounds for the Lobos (19-11, 7-8 Mountain West), who have won two straight since a four-game skid.
BYU played its first game in the shadow of Brandon Davies' absence. The forward was dismissed from the team earlier this week for a violation of the school's honor code, and the Lobos took advantage, outrebounding the Cougars, 45-29, and grabbing 12 offensive rebounds.
Jimmer Fredette did his best to keep the game close, scoring 33 points, although he needed 26 shots to reach that number. Fredette also had six assists and five rebounds.
Jackson Emery was the only other Cougar in double figures with 11 points. BYU (27-3, 13-2) lost for the first time since January 29, another defeat at the hands of New Mexico. The Cougars also lost at home for the first time since February 27, 2010 -- a loss to none other than the Lobos.
The first half was a nightmare for the Cougars, who were immediately back on their heels against the aggressive Lobos. New Mexico scored the game's first six points and 13 of the first 15, capped by McDonald's three just over 3 1/2 minutes in. BYU trimmed the deficit to eight before the Lobos reeled off seven successive points, with Williams' three making the score 27-12.
Another scoring onslaught by the visitors, this time a nine-point run, opened a 40-21 lead. McDonald connected on another of his five treys to cap the stretch, and the Lobos took a 42-26 advantage into the locker room.
BYU came out of the gates strong in the second half, as Fredette buried a three from the right corner, and moments later connected from the foul line for a 44-31 game.
A three-point play by Charles Abouo nearly four minutes in sliced the deficit down to 48-37. That was as close as the Cougars got, though, as New Mexico didn't blink and racked up the next 11 points.
"On defense, we did what we wanted to do and on offense we made shots," New Mexico head coach Steve Alford said. "Every time they made a run, we answered it."
Jamal Fenton's three gave them a 59-37 lead, and New Mexico rolled to victory from there.

Sofia, Nov 14: Archaeologists have found ruins of a late-Roman-era fortress during an excavation in Svalenik village, nowadays Northern Bulgaria.
The ruin, which was a part of the defence system of the Romans, had been raised in the IV Century as a watch fortification, controlling the road in the River Valley of Malki Lom River.
Archaeologists have so far revealed the south wall and two inner rooms of the fortress, reports News.bg.
The coins and pottery found, suggest that the fortress had survived the big Huns and Goths invasions in the V century, as an already fortified settlement of agriculture population.
The ceramic pottery, arrow making tools and other objects found show that life here proceeded through the period of Second Bulgarian kingdom. (ANI)

Monster Hunter Portable 3rd TGS 2010 Trailer
Make sure to check out this trailer for Monster Hunter Portable 3rd from TGS 2010.
does this game come out with English version? So far, i can only download it by JP version.
When does this game come out in the US?? If the online is more than ad hoc it will sell like super hot cakes. Love the new theme song.
@Coolyfett I really hope that CAPCOM will read your comment and make an online multiplayer game for the PSP.
New Maps New Armors, New Weapons, New Monsters, New AI, Same gameplay .... PERFECT!! btw, use adhocParty
waaawooo this game amazing i have it already but everything is jap in this game i download the patch and all the item and weapons are in eng yeaaaaaaah this is the best game ...... O.o
That's like 3 time in a row i buy a psp sold it after i was tired of playing MHF and not long after they release another version and i buy another psp lol I just hope they won't take years before releasing the game here.
im really exited to have this :) :) :) :) :) :) :) :) :) :) :) :) :) :) :) :) :) :) :) :) :)
when the hell will they put monster hunter on ps3 i have been playing demons souls to fill the hole but i need monster hunter on ps3 NOW!!!!!!!
I'm so upset that there was no bow and arrow in MHTri. For that, and because I miss fighting Tigrex, I want this.
Even though it's supposedly going to be shorter than Unite, ten new monsters have been announced along with every monster on Tri, plus Diablos, Tigrex and his black subspecies, Nargacuga and a green sub, and of course the king and queen of the skies. Overall there's over two dozen giant baddies to take down. Can't flippin wait!
@sheah1 Neither, I was just giving a little info about the game. I'm really looking forward to this game.
This game focuses more on graphics and gameplay over content. It won't be nearly as big as MHFU, roughly half the size. The graphics will push the PSP to the limit; data install is a must.
@IVI72awesome: I'm not sure if that was an honest question or if it was rhetorical, but i'll go ahead and answer it anyway. Monster Hunter is great because it has incredibly fun multi-player, it's very difficult and it makes players work for victory, nothing is given to you. The monsters' AI is by far the best I've ever seen in a game. Some are really stupid, and are really smart, it's very realistic in that aspect. I can't possibly describe everything that makes it great in one message, you simply have to play it and learn for yourself. But I warn you, don't expect a simple button-mashing hack-and-slash, MH takes practice and it takes getting used to the controls in order to be fun. Keep an open mind and give it a try, I'd advise MHFU for PSP, or MH Tri for Wii (if you have one)
I cant wait!!! i bought my psp just to play monster hunter freedom unite, and now i see this!!! This will be the best mosnter hunter game!!!!! Wtf, Nintendo DS or 3DS? Nintendo DS will not be able to handle that graphics....
@blackhuntingcat: yeZ!!! me too put one on Ps3!!! but definitely playing this on psp enjoyed the ones before this! worth it!
It looks good, I just hope they did something about the camera. It wasn't game breaking or anything but I never got used to holding my psp with my hand like a claw....
You all should know that this game is the latest monster hunter game,I MEAN LOOK AT THE GRAPHICS,THE MONSTERS LOOK BIGGER,THEY LOOK STRONGER,THE AREAS LOOK SOOOOOO AMAZING AND NICE MADE THE MONSTER ARE FINALLY FEARIOUS ENOUGHT TO FIGHT THEM TILL DEATH THE GAMEPLAYT LOOKS BETTER,THE NEW MONSTERS LOOK AMAZING TO MAKE WEPONS OF,THE TIGREX IS SO HUGE HE IS SOOO FUN TO FIGHT!!!! THIS WILL BE THE BEST MONSTER HUNTER GAME!............THE **** I WANNA GO TO WHEN THIS GAME IS REALESED SOMEONE MAKE A TIME MACHINE RIGHT NOOOOOOW
I wish Capcom would make a spinoff of MH with a more traditional action/adventure rpg style. Epic story, side characters, and scinematic sequences. That'd be my dream game for psp.
@ franzero it shows PSP aswell just a frame before that. @Josh1002 They're just trying to give the message that this new Tigrex is a tough mofo :P
lets have high hopes that it does come to the US when i get it i will put another 300 hours on it oh yea baby oh and i heard there is going to be online play using your computer some sheise like that check monster hunter wiki
Snow bunny? That White thing was a bunny? The first thing that came to my mind was "Koala" And Evil Koala.... Don't you just hate it when they show players getting their arse kicked?
Dude! This game is SOOOO much bigger in terms of content than the Wii version. This is AMAZING and it's for a portable system. Holy crap. I know the Wii was Wiik, but I had no idea Sony pwnd its face so hard. The Lava Rex looks like a terrible fight to have to do. Snow Bunny of doom is hard to take seriously, but maybe that will change when I play it. I have been playing Monster Hunter since it first came out in the States on PS2 in 2004. I LOVE this series. The one thing I wish Capcom would do at this point is buckle down and develop an amazing Monster Hunter title for PS3. They did an AMAZING job with Lost Planet 2 and it gives me hope that they can do the same thing with MH. MH on PS3, PLEASE!!!!!

McKenzie trade bait ?????
By Rob Demovsky
PackersNews.com Though no final decision has been made on what to do with disgruntled cornerback Mike McKenzie, the Green Bay Packers are willing to consider trading him. NFL sources said Tuesday the Packers are listening to offers from teams who might be interested in acquiring McKenzie. It has been 11 days since McKenzieÃÆââÃâìâÃââs agent, Brian Parker, confirmed he asked the Packers to trade his client. The Packers initially denied the request, but since then little has been done to repair the relationship. So, according to sources, the Packers have been putting out feelers to see what interest there is in McKenzie. That suggests the Packers believe there is a chance that the relationship is beyond repair. A source close to the situation believes the main issue is McKenzieÃÆââÃâìâÃââs contract, a five-year, $17.1 million extension that included a $3.5 million signing bonus that was signed in January of 2002. That contract was negotiated by one of McKenzieÃÆââÃâìâÃââs former agents. Parker is McKenzieÃÆââÃâìâÃââs fourth agent the last five years. Parker did not return phone messages left at his Memphis office Tuesday. The PackersÃÆââÃâìâÃââ coaches and personnel staff were in draft meetings Tuesday and could not be reached. Coach Mike Sherman is scheduled to hold his annual pre-draft news conference today at team headquarters. McKenzie has already given up a $200,000 workout bonus he would have received for participating in an offseason program, and the Packers donÃÆââÃâìâÃâât expect McKenzie to show up at their minicamp next week. McKenzie has not spoken publicly since Parker confirmed on April 10 that he asked the Packers to trade McKenzie. If the Packers do trade McKenzie, the rest of his pro-rated signing bonus ÃÆââÃâìâÃâ¬Ã $2.1 million ÃÆââÃâìâÃâ¬Ã would accelerate to this yearÃÆââÃâìâÃââs salary cap. However, his base salary of $2.75 million would be wiped off the books, giving the Packers a net gain of $650,000 in cap room. ItÃÆââÃâìâÃââs unknown what the Packers would want in return for McKenzie, who is their top cornerback and arguably one of the top corners in the league. McKenzie was originally a third-round draft pick. Teams could try to low-ball the Packers if they know they are desperate to get rid of him. The Packers could simply give into McKenzieÃÆââÃâìâÃââs demands for a new contract, but teams never want to appear to be held hostage by a player. Another option for the Packers would be to call McKenzieÃÆââÃâìâÃââs bluff and do nothing and see if he eventually returns to the team, but indications are McKenzie would be willing to sit out before returning to Green Bay. |

McKenzie trade bait ?????
I assume a player who sits out a season simply doesn\'t get paid (that\'s logical, isn\'t it?).
Technical question: Does he count against the salary cap? The situation is somewhat similar to an injured player - he doesn\'t contribute but his rights remain with the team - but also somewhat similar to a player who is released as he receives no payments from his club. |

i like mckenzie... we would lucky to get and we should really try to... we would need to pick up a corner in the draft if we do and it would probably only take a 2nd rd pick anyway

Fourth agent in five years? You have to wonder what that is all about. They couldn\'t have all been incompetent. Sounds like he might be acting like a spoiled brat. That\'s not to say he isn\'t a good player.

Adrian Tompsett | December 16, 2011 | Comments
A look at what impression-level decisioning (ILD) is and why it will be the acronym to know in 2012.
Everyone knows that we can't get enough of acronyms in ad tech. In 2009, it was the year of the DSP (demand-side platform), which has enabled buyers to get better ROI out of display ads. In 2010, we learned how RTB (real-time bidding) allows advertisers to precisely target audiences in real time. And in 2011, we progressed to the DMP (data management platform), which helps advertisers manage and report audience data across the media plan. So what's next for display advertising in 2012? It's got to be encapsulated in a three-letter acronym, right?
The acronym for 2012 will be ILD, which stands for impression-level decisioning.
What is ILD you ask? Advertisers have been using ILD on ad exchanges by determining the consumer behind an individual ad impression and intelligently deciding whether or not to buy it, how much to pay, and what creative to show - bidding only on those impressions likely to perform against an advertiser's specific goals. But in 2011, advertisers started to experiment with porting ILD from exchanges to the old-fashioned and much larger domain of guaranteed media buys. In 2012, I predict that we'll see leading-edge advertisers run ILD across the entire media plan, and across all channels. This is a game-changing way of thinking that is likely to bring big efficiencies to display advertising. So let's break it down in more detail.
A major North American automaker wanted to generate new leads and increase brand awareness through a display campaign featuring three distinct calls to action: 1) configure a car, 2) request a quote, or 3) locate a local dealer. In prior campaigns, layering our digital marketing management platform's automated impression-level decisioning across exchange-traded media drove better performance and greater efficiencies. We recommended adding additional campaign flights leveraging decision automation across guaranteed buys from three premium publishers to increase the volume and quality of leads. Our platform valued and bought only the impressions predicted most likely to generate a consumer response, resulting in a 60 percent rise in actions and significant increase on return on ad spend. Since guaranteed buys are sold for a fixed price (with or without the ability to layer ILD), this essentially meant that the automaker saw 60 percent more actions from the same spend.
Advertisers are interested in driving global efficiency across all of their digital marketing spend including the full spectrum of tactics - site takeovers, fixed placements, DSPs, ad networks, and endemic sites. The trick to making ILD work outside of the exchange-traded environment is finding optionality, which traditionally hasn't existed in the world of guaranteed buys.
Getting this done is easier than you might think. Advertisers can go ahead and negotiate their guaranteed buys the same way they normally would, but with a twist - negotiate the right to run the inventory through their DSP with so-called "passback rights." Then, using ILD, place ads only on the impressions most likely to convert, and pass back the unused impressions.
For larger advertisers with multiple divisions or product lines, another option is to serve ads on 100 percent of the inventory in the guaranteed buy, and intelligently allocate impressions across business units, products, or creatives. For a large brand it might be the preferred strategy since it empowers them with access and control over a large pool of quality impressions with the optionality to control what each consumer sees. Consider a major CPG company with food, beverage, personal care, and household product lines running a guaranteed buy across a media plan with 20 premium sites. By running ILD, the 18 to 24 year-old male college student in New York City would be shown a two-for-one offer on instant noodles, versus the 30 to 45 year-old mother in Houston who would see an offer for a pre-packaged fruit juice that fits easily into a lunch box. And the browser who recently visited the e-commerce store would receive a "buy it now" remarketing offer for a browsed item rather than a general brand awareness ad.
Running ILD across guaranteed media plans can bring huge efficiencies to digital marketing. There are business issues to be worked through for sure, both between buyer and seller and within the buyer's enterprise. What do you think? Are you ready to enter the brave new world of ILD?

What: Healthy Community Development: Economic and Infrastructure
Strategies to Reduce Obesity Disparities—the 2nd Annual DASH-NY Coalition Conference
When: Monday, March 24, 2014, 9:00 a.m. to 4:30 p.m.
Where: Hyatt Regency Rochester, 125 East Main Street, Rochester, NY
DASH-NY, New York's statewide obesity prevention policy center and coalition, will host its annual conference in Rochester, NY on March 24. Join us for an innovative conference on the connections between economic development and health disparities.
New York's adult obesity rate is just under 24%, but the burden of obesity disparately affects communities of color, with nearly a third of Black adults obese, and 35% of adults living with disabilities.(1) Health disparities, like obesity and other chronic diseases, are exacerbated by poor access to economic opportunities and living in communities where infrastructure and resources that support healthy lifestyles are lacking.
Learn how economic and infrastructure strategies can reduce obesity and chronic disease by creating more equitable communities. The conference will focus on innovative, replicable, and sustainable solutions for healthy community development with an emphasis on equity. Such solutions involve creating healthy jobs, improving employee health and productivity through health initiatives, increasing active living through infrastructure design, and expanding access to preventive health care services.
Keynote speaker Mildred Thompson, Senior Director and Director of the
Center for Health Equity and Place at PolicyLink, will kick off a full day of talks, panels, and networking.
This conference is a networking and partnership development opportunity for multiple stakeholders: advocates, business and private sector, agencies, practitioners, planners, researchers, and community-based groups.

Offbeat: Renée Fleming Reaches Out From Opera, Blind Boys Modernize Their Message
Blues, Chicago Artists, Classical, Country, Holiday Music, Interviews, Jazz, News and Dish, Pop, Rock, Vocal Music No Comments »By Dennis Polkow
It's a busy holiday season for the "People's Diva," Renée Fleming: not only has the soprano released her first-ever Christmas album, "Christmas in New York" (Decca), but PBS has produced a television special on the making of the album. As if that weren't enough, Fleming sang at the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade and is opening a new production of "The Merry Widow" at the Metropolitan Opera on New Year's Eve, with Lyric Opera music director Sir Andrew Davis at the podium.
Christmas itself, however, Fleming admits, will remain a family affair. "My whole family sings like crazy," says Fleming. "When we decorate the tree, my daughters and I have a major impromptu scat-singing festival." It's this spirit that informs the eclectic approach of "Christmas in New York," on which Fleming performs with guest artists Wynton Marsalis, Gregory Porter, Kelli O'Hara, Chris Botti, Brad Mehldau, Rufus Wainwright and Chicago jazz singer Kurt Elling.
For those expecting a killer rendition of "O Holy Night" or "Ave Maria," think again. "That was my expectation as well," laughs Fleming. "I just assumed when I would finally do a Christmas album, it would be that Karajan-Vienna Philharmonic-Leontyne Price template. But this came together in a different way and Universal had a different idea about it.
"I stayed away from carols for the most part, except for 'Stille, Stille, Stille.' I also went to my collaborators and said, 'What would you like to do?' I took their lead in many cases. Since this took about nine months to really finish up, I worried for a while about it coming together in a way that would make it feel like a whole, but it did. There was enough variety on it to enable it to have that sense of different things coming together." Read the rest of this entry »

Ian Anderson Wants Fans to Stop Following Him to Hotels
In a new post on Jethro Tull's Facebook page, frontman Ian Anderson asked fans to keep their distance.
In a new post on Jethro Tull's Facebook page, frontman Ian Anderson asked fans to keep their distance.
We review the new DVD by Ian Anderson, which brings together a live performance of Jethro Tull's 'Thick as a Brick' and its 2012 sequel.
Jethro Tull frontman Ian Anderson is honest about progressive rock's musical bloat.
Ian Anderson will release a live set that includes both Jethro Tull's 'Thick as a Brick' and its 2012 sequel.
Fresh off a new solo release, Ian Anderson says: 'I think I prefer, in my twilight years, to use my own name.'
Ian Anderson isn't finished with Gerald Bostock, a mythical character whose poetry was said to have inspired Jethro Tull's legendary 1972 prog classic 'Thick as a Brick.'
Ian Anderson promises new music in 2014. And while he knows what direction the project will take (it's a concept album), details -- like whether or not it will be a solo record or a Jethro Tull LP -- are still up in the air. Either way, Anderson says it will be a folk-prog-metal hybrid.
By 1978, Jethro Tull had been running for 10 years, and though their commercial fortunes and profile had soared with albums like 'Aqualung' and 'Thick as a Brick,' the band was still at its creative peak, as its 11th album, 'Heavy Horses,' proves.
Jethro Tull front man Ian Anderson presented the crowd with both a full dose of nostalgia, and a new musical challenge in Nashville on Tuesday night (Oct. 30). Performing both the classic Tull album 'Thick as a Brick' and his new solo sequel 'Thick as a Brick 2' in their entirety, Anderson pulled off the unlikely feat of topping his past success with his newest work.
It's not everyday that a flute makes its way into a rock 'n' roll group. However, Jethro Tull frontman Ian Anderson was able to not just fit in but somehow stand out with the unconventional instrument.

Esca's Pasternack to Pitch Fish-and-Chips at Citi Field

We're not Mets fans or anything, but Gael Greene's (Web-only!) scoop that David Pasternack of Esca was planning a Fish Shack for Citi Field has really got us in a Flushing frame of mind. Pasternack told us the new Fish Shack would feature "simple stuff" like fish-and-chips, fried clam sandwiches, and lobster rolls. As at other Citi Field concessions, you'll be able to see the game while you wait. So what makes Pasternack's menu special? "I don't know yet," the chef told us. "But it's going to be really good." Pasternack also hears that there will be a Shake Shack at Citi Field, the same rumor we told you about in August. Is this going to be the greatest stadium food court ever or what? Related: Hark! New Shake Shack to Open at Shea Stadium

Gear Review
Thomas Warren
Aren't Cubans Illegal in the US
The Supra Cuban is pretty classy. The only issue I have is with the chain and flap. They just don't seem to stay in place. I like to wear the chain over the flap and it comes un-tucked. Don't let that discourage you though. You can remove the flap and the chain, giving the shoe a dressed up feel. Great Supra comfort and perfect fit.

I bought these exact pants already as a 5 because thats the size i bought the sadie lady pant as well and they fit great. unfortunatly the sizing is the same for both pants numbers and all but these ones are way too small. a 7 wouldve been awsome but now i dont know what to order another pair of the sadie pants in because i have no idea if volcom shrunk their sizes or not. :( please help so i can order new pants. I dont really wear any thing else other than these pants but now this recent sizing thing has thrown me for a loop a bit
I tried to leave a review about these pants for this exact reason! I also had to return these bc they're way too small. I bought another pair at the same time - in my usual size -and they still fit. I think it's just these particular pants and that their sizes are still the same.

WOW! Great!
Whatever you may have intended for this picture before you shot it, I think the result is superb...quasi apocalyptic, in my humble opinion. If it was one those happy accidents that happen with lomography, then I don't think you could have asked for a better accident...if it was the result of much fine tuning, then kudos to you, my friend!
Best regards from down south,

Hi there Adam, Thanks for the comment, This was one of those fluke pictures. The park had flooded and it looked so different at dusk. I had just got my Belair and was playing with the red scale film as I hadnt used it before. This is why I love film :) Cheers Ed
Awesome photo!

Whats more concerning than current numbers, is trends. Trends lead to the last weapons race. I think the question is; how will world stability change with China growing into a military power (sooner or later it will)?
Also, I find GDP per capita irrelevant. What is more relevant is the concentration of wealth in a portion of the population and around its leaders. If there is a rural poor and an urban rich class in China, this will not make China in any way impotent. What matters most is the wealth of the governement and the infrastructure it controls.

Dec. 20-23: Minnesota Dance Theatre is just one year shy of celebrating the 50th anniversary of its signature holiday event. MDT has presented the family favorite at the Cowles Center for the past two seasons, but now the troupe will travel back down Hennepin Avenue to the State Theatre, a familiar stage for the "Nutcracker Fantasy." More spacious digs means that a full 44-piece orchestra, led by Philip Brunelle, will perform Tchaikovsky's composition, accompanying the cast of MDT professionals and students, all of whom seem to get an extra big kick out of this production (especially the littlest ones who scamper about as the wee pot-bellied mice). Superfans can join in a "Nutcracker Tea Party" (4:30 p.m. Dec. 22, $100-$125) that includes treats, a backstage tour, a photo with cast members and premium seating for that evening's show. (7:30 p.m. Dec. 20, 2 & 7:30 p.m. Dec. 21, 1 & 6:30 p.m. Dec. 22, noon Dec. 23. $35-$75. State Theatre, 805 Hennepin Av. S., Mpls. 800-987-2787. www.ticketmaster.com.) CAROLINE PALMER
Dec. 12-22: Penumbra Theatre's "Black Nativity," a hallmark of the holidays in the Twin Cities, was suspended last year because of the company's financial difficulties. Even before that, Penumbra, like many theaters with holiday traditions, had tinkered with the show in order to refresh it. This year, the theater brings back a concert production, backed by the mass choir of Fellowship Missionary Baptist Church and featuring solo performances by Dennis Spears, Greta Oglesby and Yolande Bruce. Maestro Sanford Moore conducts while Penumbra founder Lou Bellamy narrates Langston Hughes' script. (7:30 p.m. Dec. 12-13 & 18-20; 2 & 7:30 p.m. Dec. 14-15 & 21-22. Penumbra Theatre, 270 N. Kent St., St. Paul. $30 or $66 for dinner package. 651-224-3180 or www.penumbratheatre.org) ROHAN PRESTON
Nov. 29-Dec. 15: Set to a modern yet nostalgic soundtrack, this high-energy circus show sets a cheery tone with aerial performers, jugglers, dancers and even rapping carolers. Contortionists, acrobats and gymnasts take guests on a whimsical trip into the imagination of an elf named Elfie who crash-lands inside the Mystic Showroom. After fluttering about, the Elf engages the audience in a holly, jolly adventure. (Mystic Lake, $28-$36. www.mysticlake.com.) MELISSA WALKER
Dec. 7-15: VocalEssence's annual show celebrates the season with a Latin flair this year. The centerpiece is a Christmas cantata, "La Fiesta de la Posada," by legendary jazz musician Dave Brubeck. He fell in love with Mexican folk music as a child, and here blends Latin rhythms with American jazz to celebrate Las Posadas, the Latin festival recounting the journey of Mary and Joseph to the stable. Pianist Dan Chouinard and local band Mariachi Mi Tierra join Philip Brunelle and the VocalEssence Chorus and Ensemble Singers. Beloved carols, in arrangements by renowned American composers, round out the program. (7:30 p.m. Dec. 7, Trinity Lutheran Church, 115 N. 4th St., Stillwater; 4 p.m. Dec. 8, Plymouth Congregational Church, 1919 LaSalle Av., Mpls.; 7:30 p.m. Dec. 13, Shepherd of the Valley Lutheran Church, 12650 Johnny Cake Ridge Road, Apple Valley; 7:30 p.m. Dec. 14, Colonial Church of Edina, 6200 Colonial Way, Edina; 4 p.m. Dec. 15, Plymouth Congregational Church, 1919 LaSalle Av., Mpls.; $20-$40, www.vocalessence.org) WILLIAM RANDALL BEARD
Nov. 23-Dec. 22: Ruthie Baker, left, Stacey Lindell and Jen Burleigh-Bentz return to the History Theatre stage for this holiday version of the popular Andrews Sisters story. The show is based on Christmas USO performances the Minnesota sisters did during World War II, when they were the hottest act in the world. The three women are joined by Mark Rosenwinkel, who plays a couple of characters including comedian Lou Costello. It's pretty irresistible stuff for Andrews fans, with lots of numbers from their songbook. And these three singers are right on the money. Raymond Berg returns as the band leader — a good sign — and Ron Peluso directs. Michael Hoover has fashioned a new set design we're eager to see. (8 p.m. Thu.-Fri., 2 & 8 p.m. Sat., 2 p.m. Sun., plus 10 a.m. Nov. 26, Dec. 5, 12 & 19. History Theatre, 30 E. 10th St., St. Paul; $15-$40, 651-292-4323 or www.historytheatre.com) GRAYDON ROYCE
Dec. 4-5: The lead singer of the Ronettes was featured on one of the greatest holiday albums of all time — 1963's "A Christmas Gift to You From Phil Spector" — so 25 years ago she decided to stage her own musical Yule party in her hometown of New York. For the past several years, the self-proclaimed bad girl of rock has taken her show on tour to sing her classic renditions of "Sleigh Ride," "Frosty the Snowman" and "I Saw Mommy Kissing Santa Claus," which still rank among the most-played holiday recordings every year. Her performance will also include some of the hits ("Be My Baby," "Walking in the Rain") that landed the Ronettes in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. (7 p.m. Dec. 4-5, Dakota Jazz Club, 1010 Nicollet Mall, Mpls., $45-$65. 612-332-1010.) JON BREAM

Cookies, shots, and ice cream—oh my! We can tell by the pictures along that Molly Sims is having an amazing time on vacation.

BioSafe Systems, LLC is the manufacturer of sustainable and environmentally responsible disease cont...
Deck: Infused vinegar is easy to prepare and makes a much-appreciated gift.
There's an old recipe for rabbit stew that begins, "First kill the rabbit." Well, like succulent rabbit stew, those delightful gourmet vinegars that command such fancy prices at the store have a very simple base and one could begin a recipe for them with the line, "First pick the apples."
You can start with apples — that is — and easily make your own base vinegar, but it isn't necessary. Not when you can take any ordinary, pure apple cider vinegar . . . add your own accents . . . and produce exotic gourmet vinegars with a back-to-nature touch.
The process is really quite uncomplicated, although the concoctions with mixed flavors do require more ingredients than the simpler one-herb vinegars. I can assure you, though, that the whole business is great fun and your creative products will be much less expensive than the gourmet varieties in the stores.
So let your imagination soar and see what you can create. Here, to get you started, are four proven recipes of my own:
1 quart pure apple cider vinegar 4 tablespoons (heaping) fresh rosemary leaves (or 2 tablespoons dried rosemary) 1 large, juicy, naturally well-colored orange
Peel only the thinnest outside rind from the orange, avoiding any of the white underneath. Chop fine. Strip four tablespoons of needles (leaves) from the fresh rosemary and bruise the leaves in a mortar and pestle, if you have one. I use a heavy white crockery mortar and pestle that doesn't retain other tastes and aromas. You can also lay the leaves on doubled wax paper and crush them with a small, old-time crockery bowl or coffee cup.
Place the rosemary and peel in a quart jar. Add vinegar. Let stand, tightly covered, for two weeks and shake frequently to hasten flavor release. Strain through a sieve to remove solid matter and then strain a second time through a clean cloth laid in the sieve.
Pour into picturesque bottle, add several freshly cut curls of orange peel and a sprig of rosemary . . . and set out as the beginning of a collection of your own innovations.
The mixture is excellent with fresh fruit or as an ingredient in a fruit salad dressing made of three parts oil and one part vinegar. Salt and pepper to taste (a dash of sugar is optional).
When resorting to dried rosemary for this recipe, first bring the vinegar to a boil. Add rosemary. Cool. Add orange peel and let stand. Whether you use your own fresh rosemary or the dried bought-at-the-store variety, be sure it's still potently flavored and fragrant.
1 quart pure apple cider vinegar 1 tablespoon whole allspice 1 tablespoon whole white peppers 1 tablespoon whole cloves 1 tablespoon whole coriander seed 1/2 teaspoon celery seed 2 tablespoons sugar 1 teaspoon salt 1 small chunk dried ginger root
Mix spices and vinegar, holding out ginger root. Simmer gently for one hour. Cool slightly and pour into a quart jar. Add ginger root. Cover tightly and let stand two weeks, shaking frequently. Strain, using sieve and cloth method. Bottle and use. Wonderfully good for marinating cooked vegetables. Fine for basting ham and fowl. Tasty on sliced fresh cucumbers.
1 good handful fresh mint leaves (or 3 tablespoons dried mint leaves) 1 quart pure apple cider vinegar (or 1 quart distilled white vinegar)
Wash the fresh mint, shake it well and bruise it with a pestle or wooden potato masher. Pack in a glass quart jar. Pour in vinegar (when using dried mint, bring the vinegar to a boil before adding the mint). Cover tightly and let stand a good two weeks. Strain and bottle. You may want to add a few drops of green vegetable coloring . . . with cider vinegar, it produces a verdant "artist's" green.
This is an excellent vinegar with lamb. It's also good in fruit salad dressings and — believe it or not — delicious in iced drinks. You might want to freeze a tray, with a mint sprig in each cube . . . a real conversation piece. More surprising yet, this vinegar is great for bathing the forehead to banish a headache and bring on sleep.
1 quart pure apple cider vinegar 4 small onions, or 6 shallots, or 3 cloves of garlic
I use such a title because this vinegar can be made from any member of the onion family . . . the straight forward onion, the potent garlic, the more subtle shallot and even chives or garlic chives (either fresh or frozen . . . chives freeze very well).
Peel the onions, garlic or shallots. Then simply immerse them in the vinegar until the taste suits you. Keep the mixture tightly covered and when it's ready . . . remove onions, bottle and use.
To prepare chive vinegar, chop the chives fine, add them to the fluid and let stand for a week or ten days. Strain and use.
Onion family vinegar is remarkably good on tossed green salads. Use it with anything that needs a garlic accent or tenderize cheap cuts of beef by soaking them overnight in the tangy brew.
