Cardiovascular Workouts + Weight Training
In This Article:
Step machines like the StairMaster offer another great aerobic workout. Essentially, all you're doing is walking up and down on a pair of pedals. You set the level of intensity and time and start stepping. While this is a very simple exercise, we often see people using the machine with their arms fully extended on the handrails bearing a lot of their weight. Clearly, this makes the exercise much easier to perform and much less effective roughly the equivalent of hanging from a bar and placing your tippy-toes on a scale. If you need to lock out your elbows while you're doing your thing, lessen the intensity. Cheating in this fashion not only guarantees that your workout will be compromised, but you also won't burn as many calories as the machine's console says you do.
Jonathan's personal favorite step machine is the Gauntlet. The Gauntlet, made by StairMaster, is basically a set of revolving steps that enables you to actually mimic climbing stairs as opposed to the up and down movement on most other step equipment. More than anything else, it's like walking up a down escalator (a training method that once got Jonathan severely reprimanded by a perplexed guard during his college days). When training for the race up the Empire State Building, Jonathan has been known to spend two or three hours on a Gauntlet. For those of you with slightly saner aspirations, 20 to 30 minutes will suffice.
One of the good features of these machines is the feedback they offer. Almost all step equipment has a computer pad that enables you to work out to several different programs. You can do a steady climb, a hill workout, and various permutations in between. These various programs offer a good change of pace for those of you who get bored doing the same thing all of the time.
There are some pieces of equipment that also take your pulse as you hold the side rails. This is convenient because you don't have to find and hold your pulse while watching the clock. It also saves you the burdensome task of having to multiply lofty sums like 24 times 6.
The Least You Need to Know
- If you want to get strong, lift weights, but if you want to be truly fit, don't neglect the treadmill.
- There are a number of good ways to figure out how hard to do your cardiovascular work: the talk test or monitoring your heart rate.
- Spinning, stair climbers, and aerobics classes are some of the best indoor cardiovascular workouts you'll find at your gym.

Top Ten Things to Do at Ithaca
Want to know a secret? Much of the learning you'll do in college will happen when you take time away from the books (but not too much time!) and give yourself the opportunity to experience new things and meet new people. Here are the top ten things you can do at Ithaca that have absolutely nothing to do with homework:
See the stars.
The Clinton B. Ford Observatory at Ithaca College sponsors public nights one Friday a month. Grab a date and get a front-row seat to a celestial show.
Grab a bite.
There are so many options for food in Ithaca that it's often hard to pick just one place. From the world-famous vegetarian Moosewood Restaurant to the locally famous Maxie's Supper Club, the variety is nothing short of mouthwatering. Plus, the town offers tastes from all around the world. From Greek to Korean or Indian, the list goes on and on!
Shop 'til you drop.
The Commons in downtown Ithaca is one of the few remaining pedestrian malls of its kind in the country. Its unique shops and sophisticated, yet funky atmosphere are far removed from what you'll find in a typical mall. Vintage clothes and jewelry, thrift stores, and record shops are just a few of the Ithaca-only spots.
Take in a show.
Who needs Broadway when there's Ithaca College theater just steps away? The production value of such classics like Chicago and Children of Eden make for something almost better than the Great White Way.
Get physical.
Ithaca College was ranked among the top 25 fittest colleges by Men's Fitness magazine. Join one of dozens of club or intramural sports, get fit and make friends at the fitness center, or check out the new Athletics and Events Center. Plus, students can take a long list of physical activity classes like rock climbing or scuba diving and get academic credit. How cool is that!?
Join a club.
With over 150 options to choose from, you're sure to find one that matches your interests. This year alone produced a handful of new clubs. It's that easy!
Catch a movie.
The Ithaca College Student Activity Board screens Hollywood blockbusters on campus nearly every weekend…for free! For a more indie-scene, check out Cinemapolis, Ithaca's own non-profit independent movie theater.
Be one with nature.
Our grounds are the perfect place to sit, talk, and, in the winter, make a snowman. And you won't want to miss Ithaca's breathtaking gorges.
Root for the home team.
Check out a crew race down by the water or cheer on the football players from the 50-yard line. Either way, get out and show your Bomber pride!
Lend a hand.
Ithaca College is all about community and there are plenty of opportunities to volunteer. A popular program is the Service Saturdays program. One Saturday a month, IC students volunteer at local places, such as Cayuga Nature Center or Beachtree Care Center. Or, make sure to register for Alternative Spring Break and spend the week volunteering down South or in a big city; it's your choice!

New York Stock Exchange (Photo: Wikipedia)
In 1989, members of the AIDS Coalition to Unleash Power (ACT UP) impersonated New York Stock Exchange members to gain access to the trading floor and unfurl a banner saying "Sell Wellcome," referring to Burroughs Wellcome. It was a protest against the price of the company's AIDS drug, AZT. The irony was, Burroughs Wellcome was not listed on the NYSE.
A decade later, for his movie "Capitalism: A Love Story," Michael Moore stood outside the NYSE and asked traders leaving the building if they could explain what a credit default swap is. They didn't talk to him; perhaps they could have just explained that swaps didn't trade on the NYSE. Nor did any of the other custom derivatives that blew up in the financial crisis.
In the last couple of years, Occupy Wall Street folks have marched past the NYSE, many holding signs demanding the return of the bailout money, which, of course, the NYSE itself did not need or seek, much less receive.
Obviously, these were all examples of using the NYSE as a highly visible symbol of Wall Street. I get that – for nearly 25 years my work has involved that visibility, both positive and negative. In good times and bad, the media come to the NYSE to illustrate that story of the financial markets, the securities industry, the economy, or capitalism. We rely on such symbols as a shorthand to help understand the world around us. A bad economic report? The universal symbol is the trader with his hand on his forehead. And the NYSE (and parent company NYSE Euronext) have long promoted and benefited from this visibility, as have the listed issuers, world leaders and others who come to the one-stop media tour that is the NYSE trading floor.
Still, when I walk past people yelling at me just for being so evil as to walk into 11 Wall St., I do sometimes wonder what they might think if they knew some of the good things that take place inside, behind the famous columned façade, beyond the symbol.
For example, companies raised $38 billion in capital via initial public offerings on the NYSE and other NYSE Euronext markets in 2012 – more than that raised on any other exchange group for the second consecutive year. That's not just to brag; the period following a company's IPO is generally its biggest period for job creation, so our work helps support the engine of job growth.
Our company operates markets featuring exchange-traded securities and derivative, which are subject to national regulation. Probably the best known of our listed securities is the common stock, which I would argue is more democratic, transparent and well-regulated as any security on the planet. Exchange-traded shares are owned by millions who can not only participate in a company's growth but also have a say in its governance. Stocks can be easily and inexpensively bought and sold, and the daily trading of shares provides a real-time indicator of corporate fundamentals and economic prospects.
NYSE Euronext also recognizes our role as a member of a global community. We purchase enough green energy and carbon credits to be the only carbon-neutral global exchange group. We have a strong commitment to volunteering in our various locations around the world. For more than a dozen years I've had the pleasure to be involved in our diversity programs, including mentoring, employee resource groups, domestic partner benefits, training and more. We actively promote financial capability as a means of giving more people economic opportunity and control over their financial lives. Our Big Startup program helps small companies access the funding and other resources they need to grow.
I could go on, but you get the idea. At the core of our company is a common belief that our work involves something larger than ourselves – it's an important component of the global economy and the global community in which we operate. That's why – symbolism notwithstanding – the things that people are protesting outside our façade seem so disconnected from the work inside.
For nearly a quarter century, I've been fortunate to have a supporting role in that work. Now, it's time for me to move on and seek my next gig. I want to thank all the readers of my posts over the course of these last seven years, from HybridTalk to Exchanges to tweets. It's been great talking with you. I also thank NYSE Euronext for always giving me opportunity and the means to seize it. It's been an incredible learning and growth experience for me personally, and I'll always be proud to say that I occupied Wall Street.

gold conversion.
Amount: 1 pound (lb) of gold
|conversion result for gold:
|1 pound
This online gold from lb into g (precious metal) converter is a handy tool not just for certified or experienced professionals. It can help when selling scrap metals for recycling.
With the above mentioned units calculating service it provides, this gold converter proved to be useful also as a teaching tool:
1. in practicing pounds and grams ( lb vs. g ) exchange.
2. for conversion factors training exercises with converting mass/weights units vs. liquid/fluid volume units measures.
3. work with gold's density values including other physical properties this metal has.
International unit symbols for these two gold measurements are:
Abbreviation or prefix ( abbr. short brevis ), unit symbol, for pound is: lb
Abbreviation or prefix ( abbr. ) brevis - short unit symbol for gram is: g
How many grams of gold are in 1 pound? The answer is: The change of 1 lb ( pound ) unit of a gold amount equals = to 453.59 g ( gram ) as the equivalent measure for the same gold type.
In principle with any measuring task, switched on professional people always ensure, and their success depends on, they get the most precise conversion results everywhere and every-time. Not only whenever possible, it's always so. Often having only a good idea ( or more ideas ) might not be perfect nor good enough solutions. Subjects of high economic value such as stocks, foreign exchange market and various units in precious metals trading, money, financing ( to list just several of all kinds of investments ), are way too important. Different matters seek an accurate financial advice first, with a plan. Especially precise prices-versus-sizes of gold can have a crucial/pivotal role in investments. If there is an exact known measure in lb - pounds for gold amount, the rule is that the pound number gets converted into g - grams or any other unit of gold absolutely exactly. It's like an insurance for a trader or investor who is buying. And a saving calculator for having a peace of mind by knowing more about the quantity of e.g. how much industrial commodities is being bought well before it is payed for. It is also a part of savings to my superannuation funds. "Super funds" as we call them in this country.
Conversion for how many grams ( g ) of gold are contained in a pound ( 1 lb ). Or, how much in grams of gold is in 1 pound? To link to this gold - pound to grams online precious metal converter for the answer, simply cut and paste the following.

We joined The Stupid Drink, a student-generated campaign run by students of Syracuse University, and also the winning advertising plan of the 2009 NSAC Competition. Shaq did a great job directing the students appearing in the spot, and he was impressed by the dedication of the students from The Stupid Drink Team; they had great insights on how to reach students with the message to stop binge drinking. Shaq seemed to learn as much from the students as they did from him. He also approved of the acting talent (SU students!)

Afterward, Shaq spoke to students alongside Syracuse University Chancellor Nancy Cantor during half-time of the first basketball game of the season, Syracuse vs. Fordham.

How to Select
How to select Outdoor Wall Lights
There's no doubt about it, outdoor lights are what gives visitors and passerby's a first impression of your house from the street. Needless to say, equipping your home or office with proper illumination also plays a very important role when it comes to your comfort level. The following guide will help you learn about the most valuable factors so that you can select the perfect outdoor wall lights for your needs.
The first factor that you should consider is the size of the wall light. If you are replacing your old fixtures, new lights don't necessary have to have the same size or hold the same power capacity. Calculate the amount of light that the area requires and then look for wall lights that will match the requirements. If you have a hard time deciding what lamp to select, always go with the larger one. In addition to that, remember that the front door is the most important door of any building, which means it should have the largest, fanciest wall light fixture.
The next factors to consider when selecting wall lights are color and style. Remember to choose a fixture that will complement the style of the building. Outdoor wall lights are usually made from bronze, stainless steel, satin nickel and similar materials that look great with both traditional and contemporary constructions. In addition to style, pay attention to the durability of the fixture and its resistance to weather changes.
The installation location and mounting height are other details to consider. All of the outdoor wall lights that you select should be installed above eye level. This will ensure that you can see the light from a distance and it won't come directly in the eyes of people approaching the building.
How much wattage should outdoor lights consume? Most decorative outdoor wall lights should not use more than 60 watts for incandescent fixtures and 20-30 watt for CFL ones. Before you select any wall lights, calculate their operating cost and look for the most efficient options.
Where to install outdoor wall lights? Usually, locations that have doors or tracks around the house require illumination during the darker time of the day. Garage doors, for instance, should have a proper light to help you find your way in the dark. If your budget is limited and you can't spend much money on decorative lights for the entire building, equipping the doors with energy-efficient wall lights should be enough.
What is the best wall light type to install outdoors? The best wall light to install both indoors and out is the one that uses less energy while providing you with great lighting options. Today, LED is the technology that saves your money and at the same time has minimum impact on the environment.

Mozilla has recently kicked off two exciting new planning projects to help in- and out-of-school educators identify and teach digital-age skills, and to prototype badges with clear learning and achievement outcomes related to those skills. Mozilla is working with an advisory group drawn from the Mozilla community, industry, higher education, policymakers, and others to ensure the content and evidence is grounded in real-world application. Finally, Mozilla is making sure to document lessons learned for broader reach and information back to interested stakeholders.
The Leveraging Linked Learning and Career-ready Badges project, funded by the Irvine Foundation, will create and prototype digital badges with Linked Learning educators in California. The Afterschool, Digital Age Skills Badges and Competency-based Learning project, funded by the Mott Foundation, will also create a set of digital badges for prototyping and piloting, as well as to influence policymakers on the important role of afterschool programs in supporting and supplementing learning.
How one of Google's original engineers became a self-help guru, and why thousands are on waiting lists for his course.
Several big states have seen alarming drops in enrollment at teacher training programs. The numbers are grim among some of the nation's largest producers of new teachers: In California, enrollment is down 53 percent over the past five years. It's down sharply in New York and Texas as well.
In North Carolina, enrollment is down nearly 20 percent in three years.
"The erosion is steady. That's a steady downward line on a graph. And there's no sign that it's being turned around," says Bill McDiarmid, the dean of the University of North Carolina School of Education.
Why have the numbers fallen so far, so fast?
Like many of you, there are certain educators that I find frequently impact my thinking and teach me new things through their published works. Here I offer 10 of my favorites. Some of these passionate and informed minds have inspired me for years, and others I have become aware of more recently. Of course, there are plenty of other wonderful educators writing and sharing great ideas across the Web and in conferences and schools around the world every day, so I hope you — the reader — will share some of your favorites too!

Two rock musicians find flaws—and hope—in a book that suggests how artists can earn a decent living even after free online access to music has ravaged the business.
This interview/review shines a light on an important, though not often discussed aspect of our digital world: how artists/creatives are supposed to make a living.
"Is it corporate due diligence or spying on children?
"That is the question parents across the country have been asking on Twitter and on blog posts since they learned that the publishing giant Pearson Education has been monitoring social media to identify students who might be leaking information about certain tests administered by the company.
'The math and English tests — called the Partnership for Assessment of Readiness for College and Careers, or PARCC — are being developed by a consortium of states in conjunction with Pearson to measure students' preparedness for life after graduation.
'In a statement posted on the company's site, Pearson said the states contractually required it to monitor public social media posts to make sure students did not disclose test questions.'
"William Gibson is a humble prophet.
"In part this stems from his understanding of what science-fiction is for- not to predict the future, but to understand the present with right calls about things yet to happen likely just lucky guesses. Over the weekend I finished William Gibson's novel The Peripheral, and I will take the humble man at his word as in: "The future is already here- it's not just very evenly distributed." As a reader I knew he wasn't trying to make any definitive calls about the shape of tomorrow, he was trying to tell me about how he understands the state of our world right now, including the parts of it that might be important in the future. So let me try to reverse engineer that, to try and excavate the picture of our present in the ruins of the world of the tomorrow Gibson so brilliantly gave us with his gripping novel."
Jim Lerman's insight:
What an impeccably agile and thorough review of the book, complete with piercing observations on the present and the future -- built upon Gibson's acute vision.
It probably is not a binary either/or utopia or dystopia. It is more likely continua with infinite end points involved.
A PART-TIME delivery driver named Peter Nunn was recently sentenced to 18 weeks in a British prison for tweeting and retweeting violent messages to Stella Creasy, a member of Parliament. He never saw his victim but the consequences of his virtual crime were real enough. In a statement, Ms. Creasy described fears for her physical safety, going so far as to install a panic button in her home. Mr. Nunn has been physically separated from the rest of society for posting abusive words on a social media site.
The fact that the case ended up in court is rare; the viciousness it represents is not. Everyone in the digital space is, at one point or another, exposed to online monstrosity, one of the consequences of the uniquely contemporary condition of facelessness."
Jim Lerman's insight:
An explanation, deeper than the merely psychological, of how and why the Net makes us so angry and depressed, and what might be done about it.
"By creating a state-sponsored "accountability" system that attaches heavy consequences to student performance on tests, the state and its corporate test-making partners have created a compelling need for extensive surveillance of everyone that accountability system touches. Teacher and administrator evaluations and thus jobs depend on these scores. Schools may be closed. Funding to schools is increased or reduced. And the tests are supposed to determine which students are ready for college.
"All these consequences create reasons for people to game the system – and this has been the hallmark of NCLB from its inception. The "Texas Miracle" that inspired NCLB was based on the creative practice of holding back the 9th graders whose scores would make the schools look bad. Result? A miraculous rise in scores, a Texas governor who bragged he was an "education governor" on his way to the White House, and brought us a whole system of accountability based on test scores. And NCLB has made test-based accountability a part of the basic contract between the Federal government and the schools that receive federal funding."
Jim Lerman's insight:
This issue started as a relatively small story on Monday, but is gathering in intensity. At first, it seemed like an isolated incident; however, additional similar occurrences and increased attention appear to have contributed to more serious and wider spread concern.
Dweck's latest research involves larger, more rigorous field trials that provide some of the first evidence that the social psychology strategy can be effective when implemented in institutions on a wide scale. Promising results from one famous experiment – an eight-session workshop in 91 seventh graders in a New York City school – led Dweck and Lisa Blackwell to start up Mindset Works, a company that offers a computer-based program called Brainology. Her current program, the Stanford Project for Education Research That Scales (PERTS), collaborates with schools in testing various experimental psychology strategies for shifting the ways students think about their education, so as to motivate them to work hard. PERTS plans to release an open set of growth-mindset professional development materials, starting with math teachers next year.
But you can start developing your own mindset–and those of your students–right now. Here's our list of recommended practices.

"Taking notes on laptops rather than in longhand is increasingly common. Many researchers have suggested that laptop note taking is less effective than longhand note taking for learning. Prior studies have primarily focused on students' capacity for multitasking and distraction when using laptops. The present research suggests that even when laptops are used solely to take notes, they may still be impairing learning because their use results in shallower processing. In three studies, we found that students who took notes on laptops performed worse on conceptual questions than students who took notes longhand. We show that whereas taking more notes can be beneficial, laptop note takers' tendency to transcribe lectures verbatim rather than processing information and reframing it in their own words is detrimental to learning."

Writing engages the brain differently and avoids distractions. This must be disappointing for those who promote eliminating cursive from School.

"Enter "Designing Your Life," a new and wildly popular course for Stanford juniors and seniors that is grounded in design thinking concepts and techniques. The course's lessons gave him the perspective he needed to navigate decisions about life and work post graduation.
"It really helped me understand what the concept of vocation was," he says. "I had thought of it either as a narrowly religious concept or for a specific job. But it's this feeling that I have true agency over my work, because I know what I stand for and I have tools to fix the things that I encounter in my life.
"It took off in just about a heartbeat," says Evans, who oversees instruction with help from guest lecturers and a small army of student volunteers, who lead discussion groups. Today, 17% of seniors enroll in "Designing Your Life," and many more vie for the limited seats in each section. "We've had students literally teach the class on the side to their friends who weren't enrolled," he says.
"Evans divides the course into two parts: first, he says, "We reframe the problem. That's where dysfunctional beliefs get blown-up. Then we give them a set of tools and ideas to take steps to start building the way forward." Each course section convenes for one quarter, two hours per week."
DEFIES MEASUREMENT strengthens the discussion about public education by exploring why it is so important to address the social and emotional needs of every student, and what happens when the wrong people make decisions for schools.

There's an ongoing argument in the technology world about whether tablets and smartphones are more focused on consumption than creativity. As time has gone on, though, the number of apps helping us do more than passively read, watch and listen has grown. Many also fall into a longer heritage of technology that democratises activities like film-making, photography and music-making. Video and photography apps now contain editing features based on those used in professional software, but made accessible enough for anyone to use in a couple of taps, and music-making apps are reducing the barrier to making listenable sounds. In all cases, this isn't about you suddenly becoming a professional just because an app is holding your hand – instead, it's about opening up the experience of artistic creation to a wider audience.

Instead, students should pose the following 6 questions before finishing work. They're designed to promote effective learning as well as a deeper understanding. That sounds good, to be sure. But the real story is this:
These questions make a student actually take a step back and think about what they just learned. This is as opposed to someone like me saying 'okay I have mastered the concept, time to move on as fast as possible.' Instead, students are tasked with asking themselves a few questions that will help them better grasp concepts and overall themes that might have otherwise gone unnoticed.

"Sometimes you just need to emphasize something. One of the best ways to do so when you're texting is to make the words you really need to get across in all capitals. Or maybe you just want to shout at someone, and an ALL CAPS sentence will certainly get that across for you"
summary by SmartBrief for the Higher Ed Leader
"Both Maine and Vermont are seeing some success with programs that enroll high-school students in community college before their senior year. The Vermont program allows students to graduate high school with a full year of college credit, while Maine pays for high-school students to take two college-level courses. The programs, state officials say, are especially beneficial to low- and middle-income students. "
Body language affects how others see us, but it may also change how we see ourselves. Social psychologist Amy Cuddy shows how "power posing" — standing in a posture of confidence, even when we don't feel confident — can affect testosterone and cortisol levels in the brain, and might even have an impact on our chances for success.
Jim Lerman's insight:
As of March 2015, this TED talk has been viewed nearly 25 million times. It is the second most popular of all the TED talks, to Ken Robinson's "Do Schools Kill Creativity", which has nearly 32 million (and is 9 years old compared to Cuddy's which is not quite 3 yers old)
A POLITICO investigation has found that Pearson stands to make tens of millions in taxpayer dollars and cuts in student tuition from deals arranged without competitive bids in states from Florida to Texas. The review also found Pearson's contracts set forth specific performance targets — but don't penalize the company when it fails to meet those standards. And in the higher ed realm, the contracts give Pearson extensive access to personal student data, with few constraints on how it is used.

A very similar article appeared in NY Magazine in June 2014. -JL
Jim Lerman's insight:
These articles document one of the numerous astute observations on current culture made by William Gibson in his most recent book, The Peripheral. Thanks to Rick Searle for his incisive review of the novel.
"I first came across Miguel Nicolelis in an article for the MIT Technology Review entitled The Brain is not computable: A leading neuroscientist says Kurzweil's Singularity isn't going to happen. Instead, humans will assimilate machines. That got my attention. Nicolelis, if you haven't already heard of him, is one of the world's top researchers in building brain-computer interfaces. He is the mind behind the project to have a paraplegic using a brain controlled exoskeleton make the first kick in the 2014 World Cup. An event that takes place in Nicolelis' native Brazil.
In the interview, Nicolelis characterizes the singularity "as a bunch of hot air". His reasoning being that "The brain is not computable and no engineering can reproduce it..."
"As you might expect, there was plenty of ed tech innovation on display at last week's SXSWedu in Austin, TX — ranging from game-based learning and satellites for STEM to a simpler solution for assembling citations. In no particular order, here are nine ed tech developments to note from SXSWedu."
This walkthrough is a detailed narration of what we see in Apple's Watch Craftsmanship videos. Of course, we only get to see a mere fraction of the process; I've tried to provide plausible explanations for the likely steps taking place between the processes shown on film, but these are assumptions and are included only to provide a more satisfying and complete narration.

South Berwick-Eliot Rotary hosts dance party to benefit food programs
Monday, March 11, 2013
ELIOT, Maine — A week's vacation at Sunday River or Cape Cod, Red Sox and theater tickets, and overflowing gift baskets are among the auction items being offered at the second annual Help Feed Your Neighbors dance party sponsored by the South Berwick-Eliot Rotary on Friday, March 15, at 6:30 p.m. at The Regatta Room in Eliot.
"Last year we raised $12,000, and this year we've added two more causes so we're hoping to raise even more," said Wheeler. "One of them is End 68 Hours of Hunger, the backpack program for school-age children who don't have enough food at home to sustain them from school lunch on Friday to breakfast Monday morning."

Sen. Baucus not seeking a seventh term
(CNN) -- Longtime Sen. Max Baucus, D-Montana, will not seek re-election next year, he said in a statement Tuesday.
"After much consideration and many conversations with my wife Mel and our family, I have decided not to seek reelection in 2014. I will serve out my term, and then it will be time to go home to Montana," he said.
During the remainder of term, Baucus pledged to fight the nation's fiscal issues and work for highway and farm bill that will support jobs in his state.
"I want to focus the next year and a half on serving Montana unconstrained by the demands of a campaign," he said. "Then, I want to come home and spend time with Mel, my son Zeno, and our family enjoying the Montana public lands we've fought hard to keep open and untarnished."
Meanwhile, former Democratic Gov. Brian Schweitzer is leaning towards running, said multiples Democrats with knowledge of Schweitzer's thinking. The officials asked to remain anonymous to speak more freely.
Baucus, now in his sixth term, becomes the sixth Democrat overall to retire from the Senate after his term is up. He's the third from a red state to not seek re-election. Sen. Jay Rockefeller of West Virginia and Sen. Tim Johnson of South Dakota both made their announcements earlier this year.
Three others from less conservative states are Sen. Tom Harkin of Iowa, Sen. Frank Lautenberg of New Jersey, and Sen. Carl Levin of Michigan.
The Democrats control the Senate 55-45 (with two independents caucusing with the party), but as of now they are defending 21 of the 35 seats up for grabs in November 2014.
Meanwhile, two Republicans in the upper chamber will not seek re-election: Sen. Saxby Chambliss of Georgia and Sen. Mike Johanns of Nebraska.
A knowledgeable Democratic source said he made the decision because of several factors: he's getting older, he is not that happy in the Senate these days, and he is relatively newly married and is actually happy in his personal life
He raised more than $1.5 million in the first three months this year and has almost $5 million in his campaign war chest, according to Federal Election Commission reports. He was expected to face a tough re-election bid next year.
In recent news, Baucus was one of the few Democrats who voted against a bipartisan compromise to expand the background check system to include private sales at gun shows and online.
Gun control advocates vowed to aggressively target Democrats up for re-election next year who voted down the background check proposal.
Progressive Change Campaign Committee co-founder Stephanie Taylor said she was happy to see the Democratic senator go.
"Good bye, Senator K Street. Max Baucus has a history of voting with corporate interests and not the interests of Montana voters," she said in a statement. "Montana will finally have a chance to have a senator with its best interests at heart, and we hope Brian Schweitzer jumps into the race immediately."
Separately, some senior Democrats say they are thrilled about the idea of Schweitzer potentially jumping into the race. One called it an "upgrade."
Another source said Schweitzer is being heavily recruited but is not yet 100% certain he'll make the Senate bid.
Before being elected to the Senate in 1978, Baucus served in the U.S. House for two terms and in the Montana House of Representatives for one year.
The senior senator from Montana serves as the chairman of the Senate Finance Committee, a highly influential post in the Senate.
In 2008, he was elected by a wide margin, 73%-27%, over his Republican opponent, Bob Kelleher.
In last year's Senate race in Montana, the junior senator, Democrat Jon Tester, narrowly won re-election against Republican challenger, Rep. Denny Rehberg.
The National Republican Senatorial Committee sees the Baucus news as another sign that the Democrats will have hard time keeping control of the Senate next year.
"The 2014 electoral map is in free-fall for Democrats, who were already facing a daunting challenge," said NRSC Executive Director Rob Collins, in a statement.
Not surprisingly, the Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee sees it differently
"Democrats have had a great deal of electoral success in Montana over the last decade, and I am confident that will continue," said Sen. Michael Bennet, DSCC chairman, in a statement. "Democrats built an unprecedented ground game in Montana in 2012 when Senator Tester was reelected, and we will continue to invest all the resources necessary to hold this seat."
The Washington Post first reported the story.
CNN's Dana Bash and Jessica Yellin contributed to this report.

Gallery: Bosco Verticale: The World's First Vertical Forest Nears Compl...
Milan is one of the most polluted cities in the world, and the Bosco Verticale project aims to mitigate some of the environmental damage that has been inflicted upon the city by urbanization. The design is made up of two high-density tower blocks with integrated photovoltaic energy systems and trees and vegetation planted on the facade. The plants help capture CO2 and dust in the air, reduce the need to mechanically heat and cool the tower's apartments, and help mitigate the area's urban heat island effect – particularly during the summer when temperatures can reach over 100 degrees.
The two towers measure 260 feet and 367 feet tall respectively, and together they have the capacity to hold 480 big and medium size trees, 250 small size trees, 11,000 ground-cover plants and 5,000 shrubs (that's the equivalent of 2.5 acres of forest). The types of trees were chosen based on where they would be positioned on the buildings' facades and it took over two years of working with botanists to decide which trees would be most appropriate for the buildings and the climate. The plants used in the project were grown specifically for the building, pre-cultivated so that they would gradually acclimate to the conditions they would experience once placed on the building.

RonnyJay January 15, 2013 at 10:56 pm
It's looks like quite a project, but may I ask if they used plants that bear edible fruits and vegetables? It says they chose according to which were most appropriate for the buildings and climate, but there are also people in there, it would be a good opportunity for a win/win situation.

How do they stop the trees from ripping through the concrete?

How much it will cost to look after them, the roots will eventually grow and how they will control the damage of it?
But it looks beautiful

Less than one year after throwing his first no-hitter against the Padres, San Francisco Giants right-hander Tim Lincecum no-hit San Diego again Wednesday afternoon.
Lincecum came within one second-inning walk to third baseman Chase Headley from tossing a perfect game. Headley was the only baserunner he allowed over nine innings in the 4-0 victory, collecting six strikeouts at AT&T Park.
His first no-hitter came July 13, 2013, against the Padres at Petco Park in San Diego.
Lincecum's latest no-hitter came exactly a week after Clayton Kershaw of the Los Angeles Dodgers no-hit the Colorado Rockies.
With the victory, Lincecum, who won the Cy Young Award in 2008 and 2009, raised his season record to 6-5.
Lincecum also performed at the plate in the victory, going two-for-three with a walk. But the Giants' scoring was led by Buster Posey and Pablo Sandoval.
Each collected a double, with Posey going four-for-five with two RBIs and Sandoval going two-for-four with another RBI.
Ian Kennedy took the loss for the Padres, giving up four runs over 6 1/3 innings and dropping his season record to 5-9.

Rad Na (ราดหน้า)
Recently, my good friend S has been tempting me with the best rad na in her neighborhood. All the rad na talks had me craving for it that I had to get my fix. Unfortunately, I haven't yet found a remotely worthy Thai restaurants in Orange County, which is very sad and I have pretty much given up dining out on Thai food because honestly, I make better Thai food than those found at the Thai restaurants around. So, I made rad na, after consulting with Chez Pim about one of the ingredients used. I even made pickled green chilies (recipe coming soon) from scratch, to make sure that I had an authentic serving of rad na.
Rad na, or Rad Na Kuay Tiew is a Thai-Chinese noodle dish. Originated in China, this dish is commonly found all over Asia. In Malaysia, our variation is called Char Hor Fun or Wat Tan Hor; in Laos, I believe it's called Lad Na, and I am sure there is a variation of this popular noodle dish in Vietnam, Cambodia, and elsewhere in Southeast Asia. Regardless of its regional variation, it's always delicious and satisfying—fried rice noodles drenched in a savory sauce with seafood, meat, and vegetables…
There are two versions of rad na, one made with preserved bean sauce (taucheo) and one without. I prefer the former, which is absent from Malaysian Char Hor Fun or Wat Tan Hor. The preserved bean sauce adds an earthy nuance to the sauce, and balances the somewhat sweetish flavor. Do try out my Rad Na recipe (click on the gallery above for detailed step-by-step cooking process), I personally think that it was a huge success, so much so that I had to make another serving a few days after this initial attempt. :)

How awesome and I know exactly what you mean about finding the above average Thai restaurant, they hardly exist in Houston.Great recipe and thanks for sharing!
OMG, I love Rad Na, I always order this at Thai restaurants. I always slurp the sauce/gravy dry. Thanks for the recipe!
One of my go-to dishes at Thai restaurants! Yum!
Hi, I was just wondering what is the Chinese name for taucheo? I heard it was brought to Thailand by the Teochews so I was wondering if you knew the Chinese name
Hor Fun! Yay! with green chili! Yay! I like it when the gravy is not very thick and gluey (some of them use too much cornstarch which I don't like). Can see that yours is not.
And now I learn Thai name (Rad Na) *pronouncing in Thai accent* lol!
Hey, nice feature of you in GoingPlaces. Congrats :D
Thank you so much for posting step-by-step photos. I have always had a difficult time making noodle dishes, so I just gave up. This gives me hope again.
I find the Thai version has less egg than the wat tan hor that we find back home ;)
Hi Bee,
Just a wondering if your Rad Na is the similar with Lad Na that usually in menu of most restaurants in Malaysia?
Chinaman say Lad Na velly velly tasty.
How do you cook your noodles so that they don't get mushy or break into smaller pieces? I always have that problem
Kristen, I had this problem once before until I discovered that there are 2 types of fresh rice noodles one for soups and one for stir frys, so before buying check packet.
Love hor fun. Tip: Whenever you're down next in Kuala Lumpur try this place: Rama V (opposite the US Embassy) – the Thai food there is to die for!
Cooked this tonight, loved the combination of flavours, made a large serving not much left at the end of dinner.The only problem is the my daughter didn't like the rice noodles, she said she prefers the thin yellow egg noodles, I've promised her that I'll used them the next time.
Hi Bee,
How much noodles do you use for this recipe? I'm pretty psyched to try this!
This is a silly question. But can you let me know what is taucheo? Can you show me a sample bottle of what it may look like and/or is called in English? Thank you so much!!!!
Hi Rasa,
Love your site……………..I was wondering if you have a recipe for Moo Shu chicken?
Can I use ground bean paste sauce or salted bean sauce instead?

Buy a Size 3 Soccer Ball
Have you ever wondered which size soccer ball you should be buying your child? With all the different sizes of soccer balls available (Size 4 soccer balls, Size 5 soccer balls, Mini soccer balls), this decision can often times be a bit confusing. The easiest way to decide on the right soccer ball for your youngster is by their age. If your child is 7 or younger, a Size 3 soccer ball is the right choice for them. While this is a general rule, it is always a good idea to check with your coach or organization beforing making a purchase.
Size 3 soccer balls are the smallest game ball on the market (excluding mini balls & skills balls). A Size 3 soccer ball should be 23-24 inches in circumference and weight between 11-12 ounces when fully inflated. Because Size 3 balls are only used for very young children, they can often times be difficult to track down.
soccerloco.com carries a selection of Nike Size 3 soccer balls at the Internet's lowest prices. Affordable flat rate shipping and easy returns.

Motion tabled to suspend magnet school to save $72g in school budget
Friday, March 15, 2013
ROCHESTER — The motions to suspend the magnet school and decrease spending for school athletics did not pass Thursday, as the School Board conducted its first reading of the proposed operating budget.
School Board member Audrey Stevens said that the School District has already made a commitment to families to operate the magnet school.
Harkinson stated that $30,000 is less than 10 percent of the interscholastic athletics budget, and that in light of proposed elimination of staff positions, it's a reduction that can be made.
School Board member Anne Grassie, however, said she supports the motion to reduce the athletic budget, in light of the proposed staff reductions.

Three INXS Biopics Currently In Production
Wednesday, June 26, 2013
No less than three INXS-based film projects are now underway in Australia, according to Billboard. The legendary '80s band called it quits late last year after struggling on following the 1997 suicide of charismatic frontman Michel Hutchence. The first biopic based on the band is the two-part TV mini-series, called, Never Tear Us Apart: The Untold Story Of INXS, and tells the band's story -- warts-and-all "with full access to their archive of music, photography and stories."
INXS video director Richard Lowenstein is helming Michael, the life story of Michael Hutchence. Also in the works is Two Worlds Colliding, which is based on the book Just A Man - The Real Michael Hutchence, which was written by Hutchence's sister Tina Hutchence, and his mother Patricia Glassop. All three projects are slated to be released by year's end. There's been no word as to whether a U.S. showing is planned for any of the films.
Although most of INXS's live shows were nothing short of spectacular, guitarist-keyboardist Andrew Farriss recalled one particularly sketchy night at the Cohman Cutter in Blacktown, Australia, where things went south pretty quickly: "You'd have, like, crazy drunk people with knives trying to get through into the dressing room if they didn't like you. It was just weird, y'know? One of our, our road crew guys was walking across the car park, and this car comes up and deliberately hits him, y'know? So I walked over to the window and I say, 'Hey, listen, that's just terrible,' so they all jump out and start beating the crap out of me. That was pretty scary, 'cause I got three of these big dudes all having a go at me, and I coulda died that night."

McCausland noted the black SUV recovered behind the Big Lots retail store in Rochester is owned by Potorski. Authorities believe the gunman shot the homeowner and then fled in the vehicle. McCausland said Rochester police were notified Tuesday afternoon when a Big Lots employee called to report the vehicle was abandoned on their loading dock. The area was roped off with crime scene tape around 2:30 p.m. as Rochester police looked through the back of business plaza for evidence with assistance from a Portsmouth Police Department K9 unit.
McCaulsand said there were no witnesses to the incident inside the Second Street home which has been classified as a home invasion.
"At this point we're still trying to determine the sequence of events of what happened inside that home on Tuesday," he said. "…We worked late into the night and are continuing to investigate this."
It is unknown at this time if the victim knew the gunman. McDonough noted investigators are still seeking a motive for the crime and will conduct an extensive "victimology" review, where they will interview the friends, family and co-workers of the victim to find why he was a target..
