Hi there. I don't know what the others think, but to my point of view, to save you a bit of time, since you are going to boil the water with the DME anyway, there is no point in using pre-boiled water. This will save you a bit of troubles
Wayne Gretzky-"100% of the shots you don't take, don't go in Revvy>>You shouldn't worry about ANYTHING, you didn't hurt the yeast, they know what they need to do, they want to eat all that sugar they are swimming around in. They want to pee alcohol and fart co2, it's their nature. Bobby_M>>I flood the keg with CO2 for one minute with the lid off, rack the beer in to the bottom gently, seal it, flood it, vent it. If there's still O2 in there after that, F it.
Can anybody explain what the different layers are in the yeast starter after putting it in the fridge? From what I can tell, there are 4: 1) Dark bottom layer = dead yeast? 2) White layer = pure yeast 3) Milky brown liquid = wort with some yeast in suspension? 4) Top spent wort brown layer I would assume the yeast would eventually all fall out of suspension with enough cold crashing. However, I'm concerned that the bottom dark layer is dead and will contribute off flavors since it is not pure fresh yeast. If anybody can clear this up, that would be great.
That bottom brown layer is more than likely trub material - I get that all the time, even with DME. It's nothing to worry about. Yes, with continued chilling the beer will become increasingly clear as the yeast settles out. When it's time to pitch, pour out most of the clear stuff, give the flask a good shake or swirl, and toss it in. No worries!
~ "Anything worth doing, is worth doing slowly." ~~ Mae West
What type of yeast needs to be used for a starter??? I have access to many kinds but im not sure which i need to use?? Can one type be used for all type of beers?
*** Possum Trot Brewery ***Beer Primary - Butthead BelgianBeer Secondary - Belgian TripelBottled - Big Breakfast Stout - Belgian IPA - Butthead Belgian White - Redneck Red - Moose Drool - Dirty DubbelMead Primary - NuttinBottled - Strawberry Trainwreck - Orange Spice - Blueberry Trainwreck
I know people were asking about foil vs foam stopper etc... I ended up buying a mason jar from the container store, the type they sell have one piece lids versus the two piece kerr style. I am making my first starter as we speak and I was going to use foil, however I discovered i can thread the lid on about two full rotations and the lid has plenty of give you allow co2 out and potentially o2 in without getting into that discussion. Thought i would give everyone a heads up, a fly would have a hard time squeezing in there, although I suppose it isn't impossible. I have it sitting in a small tray incase it over flows. I made a gravity of 1.020, that should allow the yeast to reproduce then i can store it for later right?
Yeah, I shoot for 1.030-1.040 though, personally.

The Buick LaCrosse oxygen sensor is a main component which supports the engine in its performance. In your car, the oxygen sensor plays a major role in maintaining the fuel/air ratio level and helps the engine to perform well. The main responsibility of the oxygen sensor in your Buick LaCrosse is to monitor the fuel/air mixture level and relay the information to the engine computer. If the fuel/air mixture level varies, the computer will communicate the change in the fuel mixture ratio.
Your Buick LaCrosse, oxygen sensor is usually located in its exhaust manifold and it has two ends. One end of the sensor detects the mixture level information from the unburned combustibles and the other end passes the collected information to the engine computer. Too much or too lean mixture affects the performance of the engine. Rich mixtures creates pollution because of the unburned fuel whereas lean mixture produce more nitrogen oxide pollutants. If you find any malfunctioning of the Buick LaCrosse oxygen sensor, you need to replace it immediately. At Car Parts Warehouse you can find the best quality car parts at very much affordable prices.

National Vinegar Day
If I had to guess what day National Vinegar Day fell on, I never would have guessed a cooler month.
You learn something new every day.
If you're inclined to celebrate National Vinegar Day, our cookbooks can help you do that.
To learn more about vinegar, you might try The Good Cook's Book of Oil and Vinegar or Zingerman's Guide to Good Vinegar.
Maybe you've been meaning to try your hand at making adobo, a preparation involving meat, seafood, or vegetables prepared in a sauce of vinegar, soy sauce, and garlic. In that case, The Adobo Road Cookbook is a good place to start. But you'll also find a recipe for Pollo Adobo (Chicken in the Adobo Style) in Asia: The Beautiful Cookbook. If you're more of a pork fan, you'll find Puerco en Adobo (Pork in Adobo) in Diana Kennedy's Cuisines of Mexico.
Scraping frost form your window in the mornings doesn't mean that you have to say goodbye to salad season. Why am I talking about salads to celebrate National Vinegar Day? The vinaigrettes! Fresh Ways with Salads, Cooking Light Big Book of Salads, and Italian Salads for All Seasons are good places to start.
Finally, I can't talk about celebrating vinegar without talking about pickles. The Complete Book of Pickling, and the Pickled Pantry will have you puckering in no time. If you're in for a smaller time investment Quick Pickles might be the choice for you.
How did you celebrate National Vinegar Day?
I watched a show from the BBC about the development of pain medication (Pus, Poison, and Pain), and the first experiment on humans was horribly dangerous but the chemist (who was experimenting on himself and his assistants) saved their lives by drinking strong vinegar. So, don't forget, vinegar can be life-saving!

Contact Sports Desk: Call: 603-516-2949 / E-mail: firstname.lastname@example.com Confident Coe-Brown to face Hanover in D-II semis
Monday, March 10, 2014
NORTHWOOD — The Coe-Brown Northwood Academy girls basketball team has already avenged one regular-season loss so far in the Division II tournament. It will have to do it again if it wants to go to the state championship game.
It also doesn't hurt that Hartnett believes his team is playing much better now than it was two months ago. Coe-Brown has won eight straight games and nine of its last 10.
"We've spent an inordinate amount of time this year practicing them," Hartnett said. "When you have a young team, they might not see the importance in things like that. They think it's a little thing. But free throws aren't little, they're huge."
Tonight's other semifinal will feature No. 4 Merrimack Valley vs. No. 1 Milford (8 p.m.). The championship game is Friday night at 7. Coe-Brown is looking for its first berth in a state-title game since it beat Kearsarge 63-39 in the 2000 championship. |

Michael Kors Spring 2012
>> The Lebombo Lodge in South Africa, "an easy laid-back attitude", something called "Afriluxe" — these were the touch points for Michael Kors Spring 2012 collection. And so, out came staples fit for a Sub-Saharan getaway: utility dresses, breezy caftans, cargo trenches, relaxed ponchos. Kors stuck to the safari theme with colors and fabrics as well: taupes and olives in washed-clay poplin and distressed cashmere, with some zebra prints and python skins for good measure. If Kors likes a safari, he especially likes a modern one; he kept his silhouettes neat without a hint of roughing-it in sight.

If you're having trouble figuring out what type of wallpaper will look best on your ceiling, start with the color scheme already established in the room. This wallpaper takes hints from both the neutrals in this nursery and the colorful map hanging above the crib.
In this room, a subtle pattern proves the perfect complement to rose walls.
Trellis wallpaper on the ceiling of this living room adds unexpected texture to an otherwise neutral space.
A wallpapered ceiling complements a black-and-white contemporary bedroom.
Don't feel like serene spaces are the only ones that can benefit from a wallpapered ceiling. As long as the scale of the pattern up top complements what is found in the room, it can work in lots of room styles.
A wallpapered ceiling is also great for small spaces, especially if you're still a little unsure of the commitment. Consider bathrooms, closets or mudrooms to warm yourself (and your space) to the idea.
Extend the wallpaper past the ceiling limits to create a border. It helps to further unity the ceiling décor with the rest of the space.
Want to take your dining space to the next level? Wallpaper the ceiling in a dramatic color, like black. This glamorous addition will surely be unparalleled.
If black is a little over the top for you, go with a metallic. This rustic eating area takes on an edgier appeal with a ceiling wallpapered in tin.
Already have a fairly graphic wallpaper on your walls? Extend a new pattern to the ceiling. Look for something in a complementary scale, and likely a more neutral color, so the space feels cozy and inviting, not overbearing. Click photo to see more of the ceiling.

Southern Illinois Salukis (12-18)
@Indiana St. Sycamores (17-13)
Saturday, February 26
Hulman Center
Attendance: 5,112
Southern Illinois
Indiana St.
Terre Haute, IN (Sports Network) - Dwayne Lathan tallied 20 points and seven rebounds, as the Indiana State Sycamores claimed a 75-60 Missouri Valley Conference win over Southern Illinois in the regular-season finale for both teams at the Hulman Center.
The Sycamores (17-13, 12-6 MVC) are locked into the No. 3 seed for the MVC Tournament and will enter with some momentum, having won five of their last six games. Aaron Carter contributed 13 points in the win, while Myles Walker finished with 10 points and nine boards.
Justin Bocot came off the bench and scored a season-high 24 points to go along with 10 rebounds for Southern Illinois (12-18, 5-13). The Salukis will enter the conference tourney as the No. 8 seed after closing out the regular season with losses in nine of their final 11 games.
Indiana State went on a 9-0 run late in the first half to turn a 24-24 tie into a 33-24 advantage. The Sycamores led by seven at the break after shooting a healthy 59.1 percent from the floor in the opening period.
ISU buried five three-pointers in the second half and maintained the lead over the final 20 minutes.
Indiana State shot 53.1 percent for the game and will open the MVC Tournament against Evansville on Friday night. The Salukis' five conference victories this season were their fewest since 1995-96.

Liberty Announces Semi-Annual Payment On 3.5% Senior Exchangeable Debentures Due 2031 - Results In Further Reduction Of Adjusted Principal Amount
Liberty Interactive LLC ("Liberty"), a subsidiary of Liberty Interactive Corporation (Nasdaq: LINTA, LINTB, LVNTA, LVNTB), announced a semi-annual payment to the holders of its 3.5% Senior Exchangeable Debentures due in 2031 (the "Debentures"). The amount of the payment is $17.50 per $1,000 of original principal amount of the Debentures.
Under the Indenture for the Debentures, the principal amount of the Debentures is adjusted in an amount equal to each extraordinary distribution made to holders of the Debentures. Thereafter, the adjusted principal amount is further reduced on each successive semi-annual interest payment date to the extent necessary to cause the semi-annual interest payment to represent the payment of an annualized yield of 3.5% of the adjusted principal amount. This latter adjustment, to the extent it is made by reason of a particular extraordinary distribution that results in an adjustment to the principal amount of the Debentures, takes effect on the second succeeding interest payment date after the payment of that extraordinary distribution.
To date, there have been two extraordinary distributions to holders of the Debentures. On January 10, 2007, Liberty made an extraordinary distribution of $162.6160 per $1,000 original principal amount of Debenture arising from Freescale Semiconductor's going private transaction. On June 20, 2012, Liberty made an extraordinary distribution of $184.0960 per $1,000 original principal amount of Debenture arising from Motorola Mobility Holdings, Inc ("MMI") acquisition by Google.
The adjustments described above will not affect the amount of the semi- annual payments received by holders of the debentures, which will continue to be a rate equal to 3.5% per annum of the original principal amount of the Debentures. Below is a detail of the amount of the payment being made on the Debentures, its allocation between payment of interest and repayment of principal and the revised adjusted principal amount resulting from the payment, per $1,000 of original principal amount of the Debentures:

Offensive Security Releases Kali Linux
Offensive Security announces the release of Kali Linux – their "most advanced, robust, and stable penetration testing distribution to date."
Kali Linux is based on the company's BackTrack Linux distro but has been rebuilt from the ground up. The company calls Kali Linux "a more mature, secure, and enterprise-ready version of BackTrack Linux." Kali Linux is intended for professional penetration testing and security auditing, and the developers emphasize that the distribution is not recommended for those unfamiliar with Linux.
According to the Kali Linux website: "Seven years of developing BackTrack Linux has taught us a significant amount about what we, and the security community, think a penetration testing distribution should look like. We've taken all of this knowledge and experience and implemented it in our 'next generation' penetration testing distribution."
Features of Kali Linux include: single user, root access by design; network services disabled by default; custom Linux kernel patched for wireless injection; more than 300 penetration testing tools; and compliance with the Filesystem Hierarchy Standard. Additionally, Kali Linux offers ARM support and is available for the following ARM devices: rk3306 mk/ss808, Raspberry Pi, ODROID U2/X2, and Samsung Chromebook.

Burnley vs Portsmouth Preview
'Appy goes looking for his second win in charge.
Pompey travel to Turf Moor tomorrow still in search of their first away win of the season.
Team News
Liam Lawrence may be fit enough to contend for a first team place tomorrow whilst Hayden Mullins should be fit despite limping off against Coventry last week.
Charlie Austin and Martin Paterson, a player so close to joining Pompey in the summer, may be fit for a place on the bench but Jay Rodriguez and Sam Vokes should start up front for the Clarets.
The Match
Michael Appleton has said that he will change Pompey's approach as he looks to improve their terrible record on the road, having not won away from Fratton Park since beating Leicester back in March.
However, this fixture has probably come at the wrong time for us as Burnley have just got their act together and go into this game on the back of three straight wins, the last being an impressive victory over West Ham at Upton Park.
I expect we'll try and keep things tight and play more conservatively than normal as 'Appy plans to stop wingers Keith Treacy and Junior Stanislas doing some damage.
However, if I was in charge I would be asking for more of what we saw against Coventry last week and that we should really make an effort to attack Burnley's fragile back four at every opportunity.
For too long now, whether it was at Hull, Leeds or Watford, Pompey have attempted to play the containment game and have failed to register any significant efforts on goal.
As someone who spends a vast amount of money travelling the country to watch this team, it has become increasingly frustrating to see our players keep the ball, do nothing with it and then get put on the back foot.
I'm personally not going tomorrow but for the loyal fans who do, I would hope the players just simply have a go at the Clarets because they play an open game of football, so hopefully we can match that and get a result.
Predicted Starting Line-Ups
GK: Lee GRANT
RB: Keiran TRIPPIER
CB: Michael DUFF
CB: David EDGAR
LB: Ben MEE
RM: Junior STANISLAS
CM: Chris McCANN
CM: Marvin BARTLEY
LM: Keith TREACY
CF: Jay RODRIGUEZ
CF: Sam VOKES
GK: Stephen HENDERSON
RB: Greg HALFORD
CB: Ricardo ROCHA
CB: Jason PEARCE
LB: Joe MATTOCK
RM: Liam LAWRENCE
CM: Hayden MULLINS
CM: George THORNE
CM: David NORRIS
LM: Erik HUSEKLEPP
CF: Dave KITSON
Last Time: Burnley 1 Portsmouth 1 (Championship - 21/04/2011)
Former Claret loanee David Nugent gave Pompey the lead in the first half with an angled drive but we would be denied victory as Chris Eagles equalised on 74 minutes for a share of the spoils.
My Prediction
I'm not optimistic in truth. Our away record is terrible whilst Burnley have hit a purple patch, so I can only see yet another defeat on the road.
Burnley 2 Portsmouth 0

My Narcotic, Antidepressant, Cheaper Than Therapy Fix Is Called A Boxster Limited Edition — I have owned numerous Autos throughout the years (i'm 54) from Japanese imports, German imports, High HP/TQ American Muscle (currently own 1986 Mercedes 560SL, 2006 Dodge Daytona Charger ,1986 Toyota MR2, 2000 Camaro Z28 (custom built 383 stroker 615 HP/440 TQ) and the Prize Jewel in my stable is the 2008 Boxster LE. I did not believe that I could find the thrill with a car with 245 HP after playing with my Camaro z28, boy was I wrong. Porsche lives up to its reputation with this car. This is one of the most well balanced, great looking cars I have EVER owned. If your looking for a drag car this is not it (even though it could be at times). This is a car that delivers on precision driving and can easily be driven on a track (or elsewhere ;) ) due to its forgiving nature with the Porsche Stability Management in the ON position if you are not an experienced driver. Did I mention that the braking system is nothing short of phenomenal. Driven with restraint, fuel economy is good and offers a very comfortable well mannered ride. Good visibility with the top down and acceptable with the top up. The sport Mode offers a different animal with aggressive handling, acceleration and aggressive exhaust note (oh yeah). What are you waiting for, go get it! Primary Use: Sport/fun (spirited driving, track racing, off-roading, etc.)

2008 Porsche Boxster S
ProsSeriously the best overall sports car available at any cost ConsWon't tow a jet ski
Manny Pacquiao - With A Brain — Neutral at the limit, easy throttle on steering, everyday livability - more useable space than a 911 at half the cost and more fun. Buy a Porsche Certified 2009 and you will have everything a guy could want - bluetooth, Nav, Sat, 320HP awesomeness in a beautiful roadster

2008 Porsche Boxster S
ProsI have the orange/black limited edition (S trim, #143). I have to warn you - there is one thing you CANNOT do while driving this car, and that is to wipe that grin off your face (well, outward maybe you don't become the Chesire cat, but inside, it's like one big continuous happy face). ConsFor such a small car SUCKS gas, and there's been an electric problem or two due to water intrusion into the interior - if you live in a wet climate, and if you park it outside without a cover, LOOK OUT, especially if it's out of warranty.
There Is One Thing You Cannot Do While Driving This Car... — I would never have supported Porsche's "gouge-first, ask-questions-later" policy, but getting the limited edition with 6K on it 2.5 years ago at a bargain price was the best purchase I've made ever. If you're the shy, I-don't-want-to-be-noticed-type person, this is not your vehicle. But if you want to turn heads (alas, mostly MEN!), this is the car for you (I'm talking about the numbered vehicles, 250 of them only in the S trim, in GT3-RS orange). I don't know about driving it every day, but for special occasions, run around town with the top-down, it can't be beat! All the 911 owners treat Boxster (and Cayman) owners like we're pretenders, when the fact is they pay a hell of a lot more money for less car. Mid-engine is the key - you only have to have a passing knowledge of physics to know that this will handle as well as any Carrera at twice the price. But that wiping-grin-off challenge can be daunting... (UPDATE: JULY/2013) I was driving in Atlanta when a 2013 981 passed me. This one was in an unbelievably dull and dreadful indescribable shade that will insult the word 'color', but STILL it was so gosh-darned beautiful that we goo-goo and ga-ga'd over it. So if you can stomach Porsche pricing for options, or want to get a plain jane with no options, go for the 981. Primary Use: Sport/fun (spirited driving, track racing, off-roading, etc.) |
2008 Porsche Boxster Limited Edition S
Prosfast, great looks, superior handling, safe, powerful, its a Porsche Consnone
Porsche Boxster S 2008 — This is probably one of the best roadsters on the market for its price..great handling, pickup is awesome and one of the best braking systems in its class. It is absolutely a lot of fun to drive and a lot of power to go with it. always get the S version. The styling is great too and its definitely a head turner. |
2008 Porsche Boxster Limited Edition S
ProsEverything ConsLabour and Parts
Porsche Rocks! — This car will put a smile on your face no matter what your doing with it. This car demonstrates fantastic handling, acceleration, elasticity, and braking. One of the best exotic cars for the city! Parts are extremely expensive though. Porsche runs the show. Primary Use: Sport/fun (spirited driving, track racing, off-roading, etc.) |
2008 Porsche Boxster Limited Edition S
I Have One And I Freaking Love It! — I'm in my thirties and when I saw this Boxster, I thought of the orange and black Carreras of the 70's. I've always wanted a Porsche since those days and this is the one I could not pass up. It is my weekend car and I love the way it looks, it sounds and especially the way it drives. People stare and give thumbs up! This color is not for everyone, but once you see it, you can't take your eyes off of it! Owner for 0 years, 4 months |

Spank Spike 777 EVO Handlebar
Spank's Dual XGT bars are designed using proprietary tooling due to the ever increasing demand for wider and lighter bars and more aggressive riding styles. Spank has developed the Dual Extreme Gradual Taper with Impact Ends to help counter high stress areas on the bars under extreme use through FEA (Finite Element Analysis) and rigorous real-world testing.
I replaced the Easton Vice 710mm bars on my SC Nomad with these Spank Spike 777 EVO (777mm) and the difference was huge. Best way I can describe it was it finally felt like I was grabbing the bull by the horns...complete control. Would highly recommend these with a short stem.
After upgrading my Scott Scale Elite 29er to this bar, the overall control I gained was outstanding. So, when I build up my Transition Bandit 29er I had to have this bar on it as well. The are long, light, and give you great control and maneuverability.

Martin Stadium
Attendance: None
Pullman, WA (Sports Network) - Nico Grasu hit a 39-yard field goal in overtime to give the Washington State Cougars a thrilling 30-27 victory over the SMU Mustangs in a non-conference matchup at Martin Stadium.
Marshall Lobbestael completed 24-of-52 pass attempts for 239 yards and a pair of scores in the win for Washington State (1-2), while Jared Karsetter grabbed five passes for 63 yards and a touchdown for the Cougars.
Emmanuel Sanders hauled in an astounding 18 passes for 178 yards to lead SMU (2-1) in the losing effort, and Shawnbrey McNeal gained 83 yards on the ground for the Mustangs. Bo Levi Mitchell completed 40-of-57 pass attempts for 424 yards and two touchdowns in the contest, but the SMU signal caller was also guilty of four costly interceptions.
Mitchell gave SMU a 7-0 lead midway through the first quarter with a 46-yard toss to Terrance Wilkerson.
A 29-yard field goal by Matt Szymanski early in the second period of play gave the Mustangs a 10-0 advantage.
SMU extended its lead to 17-0 midway through the frame following a four-yard run by Zach Line.
The Cougars found the endzone with under a minute remaining in the half following a three-yard toss from Lobbestael to Daniel Blackledge.
The Mustangs extended their advantage 24-7 early in the third quarter with a 23-yard strike from Mitchell to Wilkerson.
A 52-yard interception return for a touchdown by Alex Hoffman-Ellis pulled the Cougars to within 24-13 late in the period.
The Mustangs extended their lead early in the final period of play with a 45- yard Matt Szymanski field goal.
Myron Beck intercepted Mitchell less than a minute later, returning the turnover 67 yards for a touchdown to cut SMU's lead to 27-20.
The Cougars sent the contest into overtime with under a minute remaining in regulation, as Lobbestael completed a seven-yard strike to Karsetter.
Grasu's field goal was the difference in the extra session as mentioned.

Why Google Blows Apple, Yahoo! and Microsoft Away
NEW YORK ( TheStreet) -- Amid all the takes on Google's (GOOG) earnings and $1,000 stock price, Jeff Reeves over at Marketwatch had one of the best:
This is my favorite Google number to watch. When you look back at the last four annual reports, the "other revenues" segment is soaring -- and last year, it proved it's becoming an even bigger piece of the pie.
"Other" revenue in 2009: $762 million, or 3.2% of $23.65 billion in total revenue
"Other" revenue in 2010: $1.09 billion, or 3.7% of $29.32 billion in total revenue
"Other" revenue in 2011: $1.37 billion, or 3.6% of $37.9 billion in total revenue
"Other" revenue in 2012: $2.35 billion, or 4.7% of $50.18 billion in total revenue
His focus on "other" revenue helps us understand the two most important parts of Google's story as well as the notion that it's better positioned for the long-term than Apple (AAPL - Get Report), Yahoo! (YHOO - Get Report) and Microsoft (MSFT - Get Report) combined. In fact, Apple could satisfy the wildest urges of blogger and commenter critics, buy out both Yahoo! and Microsoft and this would still be the case.
And it's not directly because of Google's Android mobile market share or the Chromebooks it gets suckers such as Hewlett-Packard (HPQ - Get Report) to produce for two-, three-hundred dollars a pop. It's not directly about search either.
It's about content. Google has a content advantage on so many levels. More smoothly than any other ecosystem, Google platforms funnel users to Google content which leads to advertising dollars. Google does content discovery -- experienced via search, YouTube and other channels -- better than anybody else.
Google does not let the massive opportunities it has for "other" revenue growth distract it from its bread and butter. You absolutely cannot say the same, from practically any standpoint imaginable, about Apple, Yahoo!, Microsoft and certainly not Hewlett-Packard. As discussed Friday afternoon on CNN's "The Lead with Jake Tapper", Google has the content that translates into engaged eyeballs attached to brains and fingertips that click on more than their fair share of ads and watch loads of 15-30 spots prior to a YouTube video or some such. Large scale stuff like movies and live streams of concerts all the way to the niche content that put YouTube on the map. The stuff cable television can't afford to touch. Cat videos. Backyard brawls. Zits popping. You name it. Heck, my daughter watches tutorials on how to make items such as wallets out of duct tape. She has learned to play several Taylor Swift and One Direction songs by watching YouTube videos. Google can effectively monetize these and other subcultures; traditional television cannot. I wouldn't merely argue -- I know -- that if anybody's disrupting traditional models, it's Google, not Netflix (NFLX) or any of the other straightforward third-party streamers.Check Out Our Best Services for Investors

An unseasonably strong breeze has been blowing out of the east for almost a week now, keeping the mosquitoes and the no-see-ums off balance and allowing their prey an unusual nocturnal respite. Gusting over and through the hardwood hammock that separates this bayside harbor from the Atlantic, the breeze carries its own reminders. It's a thin echo of the killer wind that tore through those same trees two years ago this month A the wind that stripped leaves and limbs and brought the ocean crashing ashore over most of this island, that drove two-by-sixes through walls and cracked concrete house pilings, that crushed buildings like beer cans, that went on to take 43 lives and do more than $30 billion in damage on the mainland in South Florida and Louisiana. But it's an echo nonetheless, a little cue for the mental-flashback horror film.
Hurricane season has come again to Biscayne National Park. Two years ago the reefs and offshore islands of this mostly marine sanctuary -- the rock and jungle of Elliott, Adams, and Totten Keys, and the sandy anchorage at Boca Chita Key A met the leading edge of Hurricane Andrew, the most devastating storm in American history. Looking down at that moment from the safe vantage of a satellite, you would have seen the storm poised like a giant buzz saw, about to take a bite out of South Dade. Elliott Key would already be turning to sawdust. When the hurricane's eye came ashore a few hours later, the swirling cloud-wall marking its northern boundary passed a quarter mile to the north of the park's northern border; the southern edge of the eye crossed a quarter-mile south of the park's southern boundary. The center of the eye rolled directly over Elliott Key -- ground zero for a natural destructive force more powerful in its own way than a thermonuclear bomb.
After the storm passed, the people who know Biscayne National Park best -- the rangers and researchers who spend their days in the bug-filled hammocks and on or under the waters of the bay and ocean, those who keep an eye on this unique wilderness in the shadow of Miami -- had problems of their own to take care of. Some had been forced to flee homes and labs on the bay's islands; many had lived in Homestead, now a waterless, powerless swath of rubble. Those able to get their lives sufficiently together to think about the park could only expect the worst.
They had good reason to worry. In 1980 a glancing blow from Hurricane Allen had utterly wrecked the coral reefs of Jamaica's Discovery Bay. In 1988 Hurricane Gilbert had stripped whole forests on the Yucatan peninsula, burning with lightning-set fires much of what survived its winds. And in 1989, Hurricane Hugo had decimated the Francis Marion National Forest in South Carolina, turning thousands of acres of trees into toothpicks. Hurricanes aren't gentle with things -- man-made or natural -- that try to stand up to them. For buildings, reefs, and trees alike the rule is simple: If something sticks up, the storm does its powerful best to knock it down.
In Biscayne National Park, there was plenty to get knocked down. Extending fourteen miles into the Atlantic from its eastern boundary on the South Dade mainland, the park encompassed the upper reaches of the 360-mile-long Florida Reef, a fragile ribbon of living coral perched in shallow water at the northernmost limits of their tropical range. Stunningly beautiful and rich in marine life, the Biscayne reefs harbored cultural and historical wealth as well: dozens of shipwreck sites, dating as far back as the Eighteenth Century. On the bay islands -- once reefs themselves 25,000 years ago, and more recently the haunt of Indians, pirates, and pineapple farmers -- dense hammocks of West Indian hardwoods thrived
in one of the United States's few genuinely tropical ecosystems. The islands' western coasts were narrowly fringed with mangroves, their roots swarming with baby fish. Beyond, on the bottom of the bay, a seagrass Serengeti stretched to the horizon. And along the mainland shore, north of the ominous towers of Turkey Point and south of the incongruous mega-midden of the South Dade Landfill, a second, larger mangrove forest rose, rooted in muck that had been supporting its trees for thousands of years.

Something... menacing.I, Ashfur, looked on with mixed emotions. Jealousy. Hurt. Betrayal. But I was happy for her... If she was happy, I was happy. Eventually I had to turn away. How could I watch the love of my life bear and raise Brambleclaw's kits?

Home production of vegetables has been increasing in popularity in recent years. In addition to saving on the family food bill, the availability of fresh, inexpensive produce from the family garden is conducive to maintaining good dietary habits by eating more vegetables.
Planning is the first step in establishing a vegetable garden. Table 1 lists many of the vegetables commonly grown in home gardens, along with other information useful when planning a vegetable garden.
The varieties listed in Table 2 represent the "cream of the crop." They do not include all of the good ones. In selecting varieties, we primarily consider yield, quality and disease resistance as experienced under Missouri conditions.
Planting dates depend on where you live. Find your county on the Missouri plant hardiness zone map (Figure 1). Note which planting region you are in. Use the dates given for your region in Table 2. If you live in the Ozark Plateau area, note that you use "north" planting dates. The higher elevation in that area results in a later spring and earlier fall frosts.
Some vegetables may be planted for a fall crop. When a fall crop is possible, a second set of dates is listed under the dates for spring planting.
Figure 1USDA plant hardiness zones of Missouri. (Find your plant hardiness zone by ZIP code and see a full-color state map at http://planthardiness.ars.usda.gov/PHZMWeb.)

It is very difficult to describe the true effect of this particular television program. It is far better to understand that one had to be curled up on a sofa, legs tucked under you, with a bag of potato chips or popcorn and a soft drink nearby.One has to also envisage that the room lights were incandescent, and the heavy baroque furniture and lamp shades (very few had ceiling lights back then) cast shadows over the room.The show opens with the faces of terribly frightening people looking out at you from a black & white television screen, with an image nowhere as clear as the one we have become used to today.Now the announcer's voice intones the opening of the show: "What are these people waiting for? They are all waiting for....the... Unexpected!"No, the 30 minute mini dramas on average never lived up in intensity to the famous opening, but from time to time they came across with one or two that stuck with you..right into your bedtime dreams. Like someone being buried alive, or a vindictive spouse coming back from the grave, or someone on the edge of going to the electric chair for a crime they did not commit. The show was presented in a 30 minute time frame (with the occasional commercial) and it had to be done reasonably well. No, they weren't as yet up to the quality of the as yet to come - Alfred Hitchcock Presents, but for the time and audience, for the most part, they were entertaining.Still, . all in all, considering the crap offered to us on cable or satellite television today ... it was not bad!

MONDAY, March 4 (HealthDay News) -- As hospitals increasingly forgo pen and paper in favor of "e-records," new research suggests the move is leaving many doctors struggling in a sea of daily communications.
The new survey of almost 2,600 primary care doctors found nearly a third saying they've missed important patient test results because they got distracted by less urgent information filling up their screens.
"The problem is that it's now so much easier to communicate than ever before," explained study lead author Dr. Hardeep Singh, chief of health policy, quality, and informatics at the Michael E. DeBakey Veterans Affairs Medical Center, in Houston. "Sending messages electronically is very convenient. But it's also meant that a lot of noise is coming the way of physicians who are the gatekeepers, and as the information mounts the risk is that they miss the really important information."
Singh and his colleagues published their findings in the March 4 online issue of JAMA Internal Medicine.
At issue is not traditional emails between patient and health care providers, the researchers stressed.
"The focus here is on secure, patient-related messages that are exchanged over a closed network of coordinated care workers," said Singh, who is also an assistant professor in the department of medicine at Houston's Baylor College of Medicine.
"That means radiologists, nurses, dietitians, podiatrists, endocrinologists, specialists of this kind or that sending primary care doctors so-called 'asynchronous alerts,' which are delivered as messages to an inbox rather than as pop-ups," he said.
But are all these incoming messages becoming a bit too much? To find out, the authors sent out a 105-item online poll to VA primary care doctors, all of whom used the same electronic health record portal.
The result: The vast majority of responding doctors (almost 87 percent) said they receive far too many alerts per day (at an average of 63), with almost 70 percent saying that they got more daily alerts than they could effectively handle.
More than half (almost 56 percent) said they believed the alert notification system they used had the potential to cause them to miss test results, while nearly 30 percent said it already had done so.
Singh, whose work was supported by the Department of Veterans Affairs National Center for Patient Safety. characterized this type of information overload as "a new issue for which there is no easy answer." That may be because some physicians are more adept than others at handling these messages.
"Some doctors have overload with 30 messages a day, while others don't with a 100 a day," Singh said. "But the bombardment of the electronic health record system is certainly a really important problem. So we are trying to figure out ways to cut down on some of the redundant alerts and to make the system easier to use."
Certain steps might help, "like color-coding messages for importance, and using folders to automatically sort out critical information," he said. "Some of that already exists, and some of that needs to improve."
For his part, Dr. William Tierney, president and CEO of the Regenstrief Institute, Inc., and associate dean for clinical effectiveness research at the Indiana University School of Medicine in Indianapolis, said a return to paper files is not an option.
"It's important to recognize that the old paper systems were not better," he said. "If anything, they were worse. But it's also true that the new electronic systems are very young, and they are imperfect. And they're being implemented very broadly and very quickly, so they're not going to do all things they have to do early on in their use."
"The problem," Tierney added, "is that they're not easy for physicians to navigate, because most electronic portals are not designed for clinicians by clinicians. Companies are hired to design these systems with billing in mind, first and foremost. Clinical needs have been seen as an add-on feature, and that means systems are generated that may not be helpful at all."
Given that important test results are sometimes being missed, should patients be alarmed?
"This survey raises the notion of caution," Tierney said. "These systems are going to get better in the future. But meanwhile everyone has to be vigilant. Which means don't assume if your doctor doesn't call you that means he's gotten your results and everything's fine. You need to check."

Bias, Rhetorical Devices, and Argumentation There are both good and bad arguments. Bad arguments consist of biases and fallacies. Good arguments include rhetorical devices and logic. Arguing your points and supporting your claims with evidence make your paper strong and ultimately persuade your reader to accept your viewpoint, so learning the correct techniques for argumentation is important. Bias Bias means holding opinions about a person or group that are stereotypical, prejudiced, or judgmental. Types of bias include political bias, gender bias, racial or ethnic bias, religious bias, and age bias. Academic writing requires you to be unbiased so your reader does not feel offended or excluded and also so you emerge as a fair and accurate researcher and writer. Writers must use caution to avoid bias in their own writing and also to avoid using research that is biased or one-sided. The following are examples of common types of bias: Type of Bias Example Political bias Republicans are the reason gay marriage laws will not pass. Gender bias Men take all the good jobs and always make more money than women do. Racial or ethnic bias Our country has so many economic problems because of all the illegal immigrants from Mexico. Religious bias Muslims believe in killing others for eternal reward. Age bias Senior citizens do not know how to drive properly and should not have drivers licenses. Fallacies Using emotion the wrong way most often creates what is known as a fallacy . Fallacies occur when you use an illogical argument. The following concepts are common fallacies found in writing: Scapegoating : Blaming a group or a person for a problem Example : Racial quotas are the reason I cannot find a better job. Scare tactics : Using fear to try to scare readers Example : If you sit too close to the television set, you will go blind. Apple polishing : Appealing to someones vanity to persuade him or her Example : You are too smart to be a Democrat. Ad hominen : Attacking a person rather than attacking an argument Example : The president is stupid for proposing a tax cut at this time. Straw man : Creating a position that is easy to refute and then attributing that position to someone else (such as a source that is arguing the opposite of what you are arguing)... View Full Document

5 negative signing day surprises for U-M
By Michael Rothstein
Michigan has had a lot of positive recruiting surprises on Signing Day over the years -- from
Dennis Norfleet
last season to Demar Dorsey,
Denard Robinson
, Adrian Arrington and others.
But as with every school in the nation, the Wolverines have had their share of guys go the other way on or close to Signing Day, either spurning an offer or changing a commitment at the last minute.
As we did with five positive Signing Day surprises for Michigan over the past 10 years, here's a look at five which did not go the Wolverines' way and how their careers ended up panning out.
Brady Hoke is hoping there are no negative surprises on signing day.
Pearlie Graves (2009)
What happened:
Michigan thought it had a good one in defensive lineman Pearlie Graves -- and not only because of the name. The No. 67 defensive tackle in the 2009 class would have given the Wolverines a quality defensive lineman and a pull out of Oklahoma, which has been notoriously difficult for Big Ten teams. He had committed to Michigan in November and looked good to sign until...on national signing day he flipped his commitment to Texas Tech.
How did it work out:
Graves ended up with the Red Raiders and after a redshirt season in 2009 started five games in 2010, making 14 tackles and two sacks. That was about as good as it got for Graves, though. He left Texas Tech early in the 2011 season and resurfaced with the Oklahoma Defenders of the American Professional Football League, an indoor football league, last season.
Jerimy Finch (2007)
What happened:
Michigan landed Finch, the No. 8 safety and No. 69 player overall in his class, before his senior season of high school, a big-time target in what would end up being Lloyd Carr's last recruiting class at Michigan. Then, Finch flipped to in-state Indiana in January before surprising everyone again and selecting Florida on National Signing Day, capping a strange recruitment where the Wolverines kept trying to get him back until the end.
How did it work out:
Finch's nomadic ways as a recruit continued in college. He broke his leg as a freshman at Florida three games into his first season. He transferred back home to Indiana in time for the 2008 season, where he was deemed eligible immediately. He played two seasons with the Hoosiers splitting time between special teams and safety before leaving Indiana and landing at Marian, an NAIA school in Indiana, where he made 49 tackles and intercepted two passes in 2011.
Ronald Johnson (2007)
What happened:
It was a commitment which still is mentioned from time to time among those who are around recruiting in Michigan. Johnson, from Muskegon, Mich. was the No. 47 prospect in his class and someone who seemed like he would almost assuredly stay close to home with three of his five finalists Big Ten schools along with Florida and USC. Then, in the church in his hometown, he surprised everyone and decided to head to Southern California.
How did it work out:
Johnson became an immediate impact player as a kick returner for the Trojans as a freshman and also caught seven passes for 110 yards. As a sophomore he had 33 catches for 570 yards and eight touchdowns and his junior season ended with 34 catches for 378 yards and three touchdowns. Johnson had 64 receptions for 692 yards and eight touchdowns his senior season. He was drafted by San Francisco in the sixth round of the 2011 NFL Draft, was waived and eventually landed with Philadelphia, where he spent the season on the team's injured reserve list.
Daron Rose (2006)
What happened:
Michigan was in the final three for the offensive lineman out of Tampa, Fla., the No. 12 tackle and No. 145 player in his class, someone who considered the Wolverines throughout the process. He ended up picking Florida State close to signing day ahead of Michigan and South Carolina.
How did it work out:
Rose played two seasons at Florida State, sparingly as a freshman in 2006 and as the Seminoles' starting left tackle for 11 of 13 games in 2007. He was deemed ineligible at FSU before the 2008 season. It appeared, according to the St. Petersburg Times, that Rose was going to transfer to South Florida, but in 2009 he ended up at ASA College, a junior college in Brooklyn, N.Y. and then in 2010 the Times reported he had recommitted, but eventually finished out his college career at North Alabama.
Cameron Colvin (2004)
What happened:
Michigan went west to try and grab one of the top receivers in the country in 2004 in Cameron Colvin out of De La Salle, one of the nation's premier high school programs. Michigan, which at the time had a pedigree of top receivers, appeared to have a legitimate shot when Colvin announced his commitment on ESPN on Signing Day -- to Oregon.
How did it work out:
Colvin played as a true freshman in 2004 and in 2005 caught 22 passes for 332 yards and three touchdowns as a sophomore. He caught 18 passes for 121 yards as a junior and had 20 receptions for 248 yards and two touchdowns as a senior. Colvin, though, had injuries throughout his career and personal tragedies throughout his life, chronicled by Jeffri Chadiha
in this 2008 ESPN.com story
. Colvin went undrafted in 2008 and signed a free agent deal with San Francisco, but was later released. Colvin now owns his own company, CamColvin Inc., and according to his Twitter account is trying to make a return to professional football in 2013.

Taarabt staying put at Loftus Road
The 20-year-old Moroccan's future was in doubt when he was jeered by fans earlier this season, while his failure to nail down a regular first-team spot in recent weeks has added to speculation his time at Loftus Road may be up. But Taarabt insists he has been given no indication from Spurs that they plan to recall him before the end of the season, or loan him out to another club when the transfer window opens. "I'm here until the end of the season and I will not go anywhere else," he told the Kilburn Times. "Tottenham have come to see me play here, but they have not said anything to me about going. "I'm fortunate to be at QPR - I enjoy it here, everyone is good and I want to stay. I'll keep giving it my best here and next season we'll see what happens."

Wednesday, April 28
Coors Field
Attendance: 23,773
Denver, CO (Sports Network) - Kelly Johnson homered to lead off the top of the 10th inning, helping Arizona take a 12-11 roller-coaster decision over Colorado in the finale of a three-game set.
The Diamondbacks, who took the opener of the series on Monday, squandered a 6-0 first-inning lead before erasing an 11-6 deficit later in the game.
Johnson's eighth homer of the season was the difference, as the second baseman took a 2-2 Franklin Morales (0-2) fastball into the Colorado bullpen just beyond the wall in right-center.
"You have to expect a fastball at some point," Johnson said. "I had a pretty good hunch about a fastball, looked for it in the right spot and it was there."
The blast made a winner of Bob Howry (1-0), who hurled two scoreless innings of relief. Juan Gutierrez pitched a 1-2-3 bottom of the 10th to pick up his first save of the season.
Chris Young went 2-for-4 with a home run and five RBI, while Justin Upton and Adam LaRoche each drove in a pair in the win, Arizona's third in four games.
Carlos Gonzalez homered and was one of four Rockies hitters with two RBI. Melvin Mora had two hits and drove in a pair, while Dexter Fowler went 3-for-6 with a solo shot in the loss, the club's third in six games.
Shoulder soreness caused Kris Benson to last just two-plus innings, and the right-hander was charged with four runs on four hits and two walks. It was the second consecutive day Arizona's starter didn't last through three innings, as Edwin Jackson allowed a career-high 10 runs on 11 hits in Tuesday's 12-1 loss.
Greg Smith put Colorado in an early hole, allowing six runs on four hits and three walks in the opening frame, his only inning of work.
The first six hitters in the top of the first inning scored. With two on, Upton doubled in Johnson, and LaRoche followed a Mark Reynolds walk with a two-run two-bagger. After a coaching visit to the mound, Young took the second pitch he saw over the left field wall for an early 6-0 lead.
Gonzalez, coming off a five RBI-effort on Tuesday, opened the second with a homer, and Benson exited in the third with the bases loaded.
Leo Rosales entered and gave up a two-run double to the left field wall by Troy Tulowitzki. Gonzalez added a sacrifice fly before Miguel Olivo singled home another run. Matt Belisle, who relieved Smith in the second inning, hit a roller down the third-base line to bring in the tying and go-ahead runs.
Fowler led off a four-run home fourth with a homer. Later in the frame, Mora tacked on a two-run single, and Eric Young Jr. worked a five-pitch walk with the bases loaded after Rosales plunked Belisle.
Back-to-back doubles from Tony Abreu and Upton to start the fifth got Arizona back into the scoring spree, and Young's two-run single later in the frame cut the visitors' deficit to 11-9.
Johnson's RBI groundout and Abreu's run-scoring base hit to left off Rafael Betancourt tied the game in the eighth.
Arizona loaded the bases in the ninth off Morales, who hit Reynolds and issued a pair of one-out walks. John Hester then hit a bouncer to third and Ian Stewart's throw home was high. Olivo was able to hold the plate to get the force out, though D'Backs manager A.J. Hinch thought otherwise and was thrown out for arguing with Marvin Hudson, the home plate umpire
Stephen Drew followed with a flyout to left to end the threat.
"[Arizona] hit the back end of our bullpen," Colorado manager Jim Tracy said. "A tremendous offensive job for us...but we came up short."

Draft Heritage Study and Environmental
The goal of this concept is to begin to identify the stories and resources related to American Indian heritage in the Delta. Section 1104 of the Delta Initiatives calls for recommendations for establishing a Native American heritage corridor and cultural centering the Delta. This concept lays some of the groundwork toward implementing section 1104. The planning team met with Indian groups resident in the Delta and with some of those who have historic ties. Any further planning efforts to finalize section 1104 should include participation by Indian groups interested in the area.
Five thousand years ago the predecessors of today's American Indians established communities in the Lower Mississippi Delta Region marked by large elaborate earthen mound structures. Around 1,000 A.D., larger, more complex mounds were erected by Mississippian cultures. Circular and conical mounds of the earliest inhabitants and the flat top earthen mounds within large towns of the Mississippian peoples are still evident across the lower Mississippi valley. The story of these inhabitants and the myriad generations of Native American peoples that followed helped define the natural and cultural landscape of a region and shaped the evolution of the character of a nation.
Today there are five federally recognized American Indian tribes resident within the Lower Mississippi Delta Region study area:
Other Louisiana Indian groups are recognized by the state as Indian communities.
One of the misconceptions about American Indians in the Southeast is the belief that there are no Indian peoples still living in the Delta region or anywhere in the southeastern United States. On the contrary, tribal members from various tribes live in the Delta and are currently thriving. For example the Mississippi Band of Choctaw Indians in Philadelphia, Mississippi, which are descendants of Choctaws removed from their homelands in eastern Mississippi in the 1830s, struggled to survive as a recognized tribal entity. Today, they serve as a model for tribal organization, social programs, and successful economic development and diversity.
The Tunica-Biloxi Indians of Louisiana in Marksville have a different story of Indian survival to tell in the Delta. The Tunica-Biloxi, descendants of two separate tribes, the Tunica and Biloxi, received federal recognition in 1981. The tribe's successful 10-year legal battle to recover its ancestral artifacts, the "Tunica Treasures," laid the foundation for the Native American Graves Protection and Repatriation Act, passed into law in 1995. This landmark ease and its preceding legislation have had an impact on other indigenous groups across the country in reclaiming their ancestral remains and artifacts.
The other federally recognized tribes in the Delta have stories of survival and success to relate. Their heritages reach back to the original mound building societies of various archeologic periods and stretch to the visible activities of today's modern Indian peoples.

Historic sites, Indian museums and visitor centers, mound sites, and historic trails make up the configuration of this concept. As can be seen by the Concept 5 map, a variety of archeological and historic sites and museums and Indian business enterprises can be found in the Delta. These resources span centuries of Delta stories of Indian civilizations, trade networks, trails, architecture, struggle, removal, and survival as symbols on the landscape of the native peoples who have inhabited the Delta.
