On Altec Lansing's Expressionist Bass + Classic
Unlike iPod and iPhone audio systems, computer speakers—multimedia speakers, to use the more common term—are only occasionally of interest to our editors. There are now hundreds, perhaps thousands of models released every year by companies both big and small, and it's extremely difficult to draw any big picture, comparative conclusions about a given model's performance relative to its price. The best one can authoritatively say is that a certain speaker delivers enough apparent cosmetic, sonic, and functional appeal to merit a given price tag.
Altec Lansing's new Expressionist series multimedia speakers are an obvious effort by the company to move beyond sonic, price, and functional considerations into cosmetic ones. These aren't the boxy speakers of the past, whether angled to match Mac monitors or blackened to match those of PCs. Expressionist Bass (aka FX3022) is a $130 pair of four-driver speakers that look almost steampunk in design and shape; Expressionist Classic (aka FX2020) is an $80 pair of two-driver speakers that use blocks of transparent plastic to suspend tube-shaped black cans above your desk's surface. Both of these speakers sound good for their prices; it's ultimately the styling that's either going to win you over or turn you off.
We discuss both of these speakers in detail below; click on Read More or this article's title for the rest of the story.
Let's start with Expressionist Bass. Here, Altec has picked a winning combination of speaker drivers, pairing a couple of front-firing 1.5" mid and treble speakers with down-firing 4" subwoofer parts. This model borrows from JBL's bottom-of-woofer ridge design, using chunks of surprisingly translucent smoked black plastic to elevate the otherwise opaque, megaphone-shaped 4" speakers above a flat surface. A circular front and rear interruption in each megaphone, ringed by silver and covered by an X-framed circle of fabric, contains the 1.5" driver. Small volume and power buttons are found on the top of the right speaker, and as with Classic, you get an auxiliary audio cable and block-styled power supply in the box.
Expressionist Classic is cooler in looks, but not on sound. While Altec's web site shows the roughly 6.25" by 5.25" plastic frames as clear, they were slightly smoke black on our review sample—a small disappointment given that other companies with similar ideas (JBL with the GLA-55s, Lars & Ivan with the BoBos) have used truly clear parts, which better match truly clear glass desks, windows, and of course the acrylics that have previously appeared in Apple products.
This is the only cosmetic issue with an otherwise attractive speaker design. The plasticy silver ring of Expressionist Bass is replaced here with a grooved, oversized ring at the edge of the 6" deep speaker can, which uses a larger version of the X-framed fabric circle to cover this system's drivers. Volume buttons are found on the top of the right speaker, with a power button unfortunately on the back, along with the power and auxiliary audio ports. Ultimately, the straighter lines of the visible black speaker can here reveal the visual issue some may have with Expressionist Bass, namely, that it tapers in a way that's visually inconsistent with most displays and computers, particularly the iconic Macs.
Turn both systems on, however, and you'll certainly notice a difference in sound quality. Thanks to those big, down-firing speakers, Expressionist Bass's driver array is similar to what we've heard in $100-$150 MSRP JBL systems for the past four or five years, offering nice treble, nice bass, and fine mids. By nice, we mean to say that you won't feel as if you're hearing frequencies and details you've never heard before, but what you will hear is tight, clean sound, with enough bass punch to actually impress given the system's dedicated subwoofer-less footprint. This is a pair of speakers we'd actually use.
Switch over to Expressionist Classic and the audio isn't quite as impressive. The treble and the mids are similar to Expressionist Bass's—here, the mids are stronger and the treble weaker, as one might expect from swapping a 1.5" driver for a 3" one—but the bass is basically gone. It's not absent in the sense that you'll wonder where the low-frequency third of your songs went, but rather, you'll notice it in a "there's not much bass there" sort of way. Such is the challenge when trying to purpose a 3" driver for full-range purposes; it's good in the middle and weak at the edges.
It's our impression that the success of these new speaker systems will come down mostly to two factors: looks and price. And any issues people have with them may come as a result of a mismatch between the way they look and what people might expect from their audio. Altec has created a pair of cool clear speakers that anyone can afford at $80, but equipped them with less stellar audio than many people would hope—and quite possibly pay more—for from such a great design. Conversely, it has created a quartet of solid-sounding drivers for a higher but still reasonable price, then placed them inside of housings that look a bit odd, like less stylish designs JBL might have produced, or possibly passed on, 7 or 8 years ago.
Their value is in the eye of the beholder. If you like the way Expressionist Bass looks, you'll be pleased by the sound for the price. And if you like the way Expressionist Classic looks, you'll find the price untouchable by any similar-looking speaker out there, and the audio more than acceptable given the low price tag. Our hope is that Altec will build upon the Expressionist Classic concept for a lineup of future speakers, as it represents the best that the company's industrial designers have done in a long time; with better drivers, it would certainly find a place on our desks.

In politics, the party that controls Congress usually gets the lion's share of the campaign money.
WASHINGTON -- The key sponsor of a bill to raise the cap on member business lending said today it won't be a part of a small business lending bill that the House will take up next week.
Preparing for the November mid-terms, CUNA is stepping up its grassroots advocacy this month with what it calls a refined "partisan communication" campaign aimed at getting CU members to have more direct involvement with candidates.
What if the opposition party gains control of parts of government?
The Senate last Thursday overcame strong Republican opposition and passed comprehensive regulatory overhaul legislation 60 to 39. All but one of the 58 Senate Democrats supported the measure, and all but three of the chamber's 41 Republicans opposed it.
House and Senate Conferees agreed to a final version of the financial reform legislation that includes controversial language mandating the Federal Reserve to set debit card interchange rates at a "reasonable level."
The provisions giving the Federal Reserve the right to set interchange fees came a step closer to reality last night when Senate members of the House-Senate conference committee on financial overhaul accepted an offer made by House conferees.
NAFCU President/CEO Fred Becker said he and his organization are "greatly disappointed," by the House's proposal on interchange fees that keeps most of the language in the Senate-passed amendment.
The Federal Reserve would still have the power to regulate interchange fees though credit unions and banks with assets of $10 billion or less would be exempt and retailers would be expressly forbidden from discriminating among card types.
Accounts of up to $250,000 at credit unions and banks would be permanently insured beyond the current expiration date of 2013, as a result of an amendment approved late yesterday by the House-Senate conference committee on regulatory overhaul.

Why can't republicans use logic? Dave explained it well; if Jimmy claims that Jody Arias is guilty because she admitted killing her boyfriend, then why have a trial?<quoted text>
Real Dave is a passionate union Democrat, but not a deep thinker.
Probably thinks that if the cops arrest someone, they must be guilty.
Zimmerman admitted killing Trayvon Martin, so therefore, why have a trial?
What is so hard to understand here? Obviously Jimmy is a moron. Surprised he said that since gunner claims he was a cop.
It doesn't matter if you're guilty or not, it's what the jury decides and how good your lawyer is.

Jett, Mary F. (nee Glosecki) Age 95, of Crest Hill, passed away Thursday, September 5, 2013 at Presence Saint Joseph Medical Center. Born in Taylor Springs, IL, Mary graduated from Hillsboro High School in 1936, followed by a year of business school in Peoria, IL. She and Nelson exchanged vows on September 30, 1939 at St. Anthony's Catholic Church in Joliet. After moving to Joliet, Mary was active in assisting Nelson with Cub Scout Pack #82 in Plainfield. She held many positions in the Mother's Club, Altar & Rosary Society and CCW (Council of Catholic Women) at St. Mary Immaculate in Plainfield; being named Women of the Year in 1960 was a proud moment for her. She also participated in many CCW activities at St. Ambrose Church in Crest Hill. During her children's high school years, she held positions on the boards of St. Francis Academy and Joliet Catholic High School. Mary enjoyed playing the wash tub, bass and kazoo in the "Kitchen Belles", a kitchen band formed with lifelong friends from St. Mary's. She enjoyed traveling and making friends throughout the United States and Europe, still corresponding with many of those she met. She also loved being a "snow bird" with Nellie, traveling to Homestead, FL every year until 1992. During her years in Joliet she was employed by the United Way of Will County and Fannie May Candy. The position she most enjoyed, however, was being the "coffee lady" at White Hen Pantry. Many local police officers and attorneys knew Mary would have their favorite brew for them when they stopped in. Mary enjoyed watching all sports, whether professional or local school sports. She was conversant in stats for most teams, but was a lifelong St. Louis Cardinal fan. Mary's volunteer spirit kept her involved with the Rialto Square Theatre, Our Lady of Angels and many, many more local charities. Survived by two daughters, Mary Sue (William) Fillback of Fairview Heights, IL and Bobbi (Steve) Levanich of Elwood, IL; one son, Dennis Jett of Leawood, KS; six grandchildren, Lisa (Chad) Gravelle of Kansas City, MO, Jonathan Levanich of Plainfield, IL, Ashley Levanich of Greenwood, SC, Andy Jett of Overland Park, KS, Stephen Jett of Kansas City, MO and Katie Jett of Kansas City, MO; three great-grandchildren, Ella Jett, Alec Jett and Tabitha Levanich; and many nieces and nephews. Mary also shared a special relationship with Charlotte Jett. Preceded by her loving husband of 55 years, Nelson B. "Nellie" Jett (September 1, 1995); her parents, John and Mary (Onofrey) Glosecki; three brothers, John Glosecki, Andy Glosecki and Michael "Speedy" Glosecki; two sisters, Olga McKenna and Susanne Biros; and one stepsister, Helen Ondesko. The family wishes to thank her physician Dr. Farhana Alvi, MD, as well as the ICU 3W nurses, Barbie and Laura, at St. Joseph Medical Center for the compassion and care they gave to Mary in her final hours. Funeral Services for Mary F. Jett will be held on Monday, September 9, 2013 at 9:15 a.m. from the Fred C. Dames Funeral Home, 3200 Black at Essington Rds., Joliet to St. Ambrose Catholic Church for a Mass of Christian Burial at 10:00 a.m. Interment Woodlawn Memorial Park. Memorials in her name to Joliet Area Community Hospice would be appreciated. Visitation Sunday 2-6 p.m. For more information: (815)741-5500 or

MegaLiner Liquid Eyeliner dries quickly and doesn't flake, chip, or smear once it has set, but this loses points because its long, thin, somewhat flimsy brush makes drawing an even line unusually tricky. If you're adept at handling this type of brush you may want to consider this—but avoid the green, blue, and purple shades unless it's Halloween.
Wet 'n' Wild At-A-Glance
Strengths: Inexpensive, good tinted moisturizer with sunscreen; some attractive bronzing powders; mostly good eyeshadow and lipstick options.
Weaknesses: Unimpressive concealers; large assortment of average to poor eyelining products; the mascaras do little to impress; some lip products suffer from the inclusion of irritants; the makeup brushes.
Wet 'n' Wild is one of the few cosmetics companies around that prides itself on being extraordinarily cheap, although the prices have increased across the board since we last revisited this brand. But don't let its hokey name and pre-teen marketing tactics deter you, because there are some great options available, and the packaging has improved in almost every category. The best-performing products will seem like steals, while the less impressive to horrible products will quickly have you thinking, "you get what you pay for." It is not very often that a line offers such a procession of clear-cut winners and dismal losers, but once you know what to focus on, you won't get soaked by Wet 'n' Wild. This line is available in most major drugstores across the country, and, like most drugstore lines, does not offer testers. Interestingly, the selection of Wet 'n' Wild in Canadian drugstores tends to be better than what U.S. shoppers will find.

The four-day annual celebrations of the Nadhadweepam Trust, held at Srirangam, Tiruchi, served as a platform for budding artists to exhibit their talents.
The four-day annual celebrations of the Nadhadweepam Trust at the Sri Sringeri Sankara Mutt, Srirangam, marked the performances of young and senior artists of Carnatic music.
The inaugural day's programme commenced with the flute concert of B. Vijayagopal. He started with the brisk 'Gajavadhana' of Papanasam Sivan in Sriranjani with a kalpanaswaram. Next was a crisp Aarabhi with the kriti 'Sri Saraswathi' composed by Muthuswamy Dikshitar. The sub main was 'Anuraagamule' of Saint Tyagaraja in ragam Saraswati which was preceded by an alapana and commenced with kalpanaswaram. It was followed by 'Muruga Muruga' in Saveri and 'Sarasa Sama Dana' in Kapi Narayani. Ragam Sankarabharanam was the masterpiece of the day with Tyagarajar kriti 'Manasu Swadheena' in which the raga alapana and swaraprasthara exhibited his rich manodharma. The concert concluded with typical tail-enders such as 'Manasa Sancharare' in Sama, 'Venkatachalanilayam' in Sindhubhairavi and Bharatiyar's 'Aaduvome Pallu Paaduvome.' Pudukkottai R. Ambikaprasad on the violin and Palladam Ravi on the mridangam and Tiruchi S. Krishnaswamy on the ghatam ably accompanied the main artist.
Crisp kalpanaswaras
The second day commenced with the talent promotion concert of R. Parthasarathy and master P. Aravind on the flute with Abinaya Ramesh on the violin and Srimushnam K. Rengarajan on the mridangam. It was the maiden performance of the flautists and the violinist. The programme began with the conventional varnam in Abhogi followed by 'Vaathapi' in Hamsadhwani and 'Saraswathi Namostuthe' in Saraswati. Delightful and crisp kalpanaswaras were rendered for both the kritis. They concluded with 'Orajupuju' (Kannadagowla), 'Bantureeti' (Hamsanadham) and a Thiruppugazh (Kuntalavarali).
O.S. Thiagarajan dedicated his concert to Saint Tyagaraja. He began with an apt 'Gurulekha' in Gowri Manohari and succeeded with 'Karunayela Kante' in Varali. The highlights of the day were 'Paahimam Hare' in Kalyani and 'Dwaithanu Sukama' in Ritigowla where appropriate alapana and kalpanaswaras depicted the artist's authority over the manodharma.
The concert also had the rare compositions of Tyagaraja in ragam Balamanjari ('Sanathana') and ragam Vasantha Varali ('Pahi Rama'). T.K.V. Ramanujacharlu on the violin, B. Harikumar on the mridangam and Alathur T. Rajaganesh on the ganjira gave able support.
The concerts on the third day were organised in memory of guru Tiruchi Swaminatha Iyer, a pallavi exponent of his time. Vocalist Pallavi Sriram from USA was the performer in the talent promotion slot of the day. She was accompanied by K.G. Rajesh on the violin and N.C. Bharadwaj on the mridangam. She warmed up the performance with the varnam in ragam Sri followed by the kriti 'Ganapathe Sri Mahadeva' in Ganamoorthi, composed by Natesa Bhagavatar. 'Kadambari Priye' of Muthuswamy Dikshitar in Mohanam with a splendid alapana followed next. The main piece was 'Kaamakshi' in Varali with niraval and kalapanaswaras at 'Sivasankari Sukashyamale.' It was followed with desserts such as GNB's 'Unnadiye Gathi' in Bahudari and Daasar's 'Innudaya Bharathe' in Kalyana Vasantham.
Pleasing Bowli
The vocal concert of Mambalam Sisters took place in the main artist slot of the day. They commenced with a pleasing Bowli ('Sambho Mahadeva' of Neelakanta Sivan) followed by an unconventionally slow-paced 'Janaki Ramana' in ragam Suddha Seemanthini. Tyagaraja's 'Nadupai Pallikeru' in Madhyamavati was preluded by a soothing alapana. The next one was 'Vinaraathana' in Devagandari, a Sriranga-Kshetra kriti of Tyagaraja. The magnum opus of the evening was 'Endhuku Nee Manasu' in Kalyani in which the sisters exhibited their talents in alapana and kalpanaswaras.
R. Hemalatha accompanied on the violin with Salem K. Srinivasan on the mridangam and K. Rangachari, father of the Mambalam sisters on the ganjira.
Talent show
The final day was an exclusive 'talent promotion show' under the propitious of renowned mridangam vidwan guru Tiruchi Radhakrishnan. The day began with an astounding keyboard performance of Master Archit Baskaran from Wisconsin, USA accompanied ably by Master Abhinav Seetharaman from Virginia, USA. They began the concert with 'Vathapi' in Hamsadhwani and followed it up with 'Guruleka' in Gowrimanohari. Next was the heavy Swarajathi of Syama Sastri in Bhairavi. The main item of the concert was 'Sogasuga' in Sriranjani which was beautified with appropriate alapana and kalpanaswaras. The final pieces were 'Kuraiondrumillai' and 'Chinnanchiru Kiliye.' The young mridangam player was flamboyant with his playing and has inherited a good nadham.
When M. Dinesh, a chartered accountant, presented a vocal concert, the stage had a perfect team of youngsters and eminent artists with Pudukottai R. Ambikaprasad on the violin, Srirangam Balaji on the mridangam and Alathur Rajaganesh on the ganjira. The concert began with a brisk 'Deva Deva Kalayamithe' of Swati Tirunal in Mayamalavagowla with a crisp niraval and kalpanaswaram. It was then followed by a comforting alapana in Ritigowla as a prelude to 'Janani Ninnuvina' of Subbaraya Sastri. The main ragam of the concert was in Gowri manohari (a rare 'Saarasa Saama Mridu' of Swati Tirunal) with an apt raga alapana and swarakalpana.
The concert concluded with a tillana of Veena Seshanna in ragam Chenjuruti. Pudukkottai R. Ambikaprasad excelled in adequately supporting the young artist.
Maiden concert
The last in the line-up was the maiden vocal concert of Master J. Balagirish, class XII student of E.R. Higher Secondary School, Tiruchi. He began the concert with 'Vallabha Nayakasya' in Begada followed by a splendid kalpanaswaras. Next were a quick 'Varanaradha' in Vijayasree and Marimuthu Pillai's 'Sevikka Vendum Aiyya' in Andolika. The sub-main was 'Gnanamosakaradha' in Purvikalyani with a blend of raga alapana, niraval and kalpanaswara. After the 'Devathideva' in Sindhuramakriya, the main item 'O, Rangasayee' in Khambodi was sung in a brilliant manner with a heart-filling alapana.
The niraval and swarakalpana in 'Boolokha Vaikundam' was fitting and comforting.
Pudukottai R. Ambikaprasad on the violin, Salem K. Srinivasan on the mridangam, Tiruchi S. Krishnaswamy on the ghatam and Alathur Rajaganesh on the ganjira lent able support.

Montserrat Royal Basilica Half-Day Trip from Barcelona
Read what other Viator.com travelers think about the Montserrat Royal Basilica Half-Day Trip from Barcelona. What they loved, what they liked and what they think could be improved, it's all here to help you make the most of your next trip.
Click here for tour details, schedule and pricing
Awesome trip! Our tour guide was Oriole (sp?). He was very knowledgeable and approachable and made the experience exciting. However, we wish we had gone to Montserrat for a full day instead of a half day, as we didn't know of the hiking trails around the area (something to consider). Overall, a very well organized tour and a MUST see if you are visiting Barcelona.
this was the best part of our trip would recommend it to anyone
This was an excellent tour. The locations were beautiful and just enough time spent in each place. Highly recommend this tour!
This tour was amazing!
a must tour you need to do, absolute worth for money.
Great trip, great guide and office is conveniently located.
nice tour guide, although a little touristic on montserrat
What a beautiful Basilica! Our tour guide was very knowledgable and was able to balance the multiple languages with ease. There wasn't a single question she was unable to answer. One key point of the trip was the tour guide planned the time allotted for each of the spots to such precision that one did not leave feeling cheated that you were unable to see something that you really wanted to see - including the Black Madonna! A very worthwhile excursion.
Loved the tour. A mass was in progress while we were there so it was very special to get to attend it.
Lisa S
Trip was great. Guide was terrific - very well informed and her English was perfect.
The trip to Montserrat is a must if you are in Barcelona.If you do not want to wander past the Black Madonna ,do not join the queue and go directly into the Basilica.The chapel behind the main altar has a wonderful feeling of peace The ride up the mountain on the cable car and the walk back is great
Great trip which covered both sides of Monserrat. Good guide and time to wander on your own
We really enjoyed this half day trip. Montserrat is very beautiful and interesting. While there you can also eat and buy souvenirs. The day we were there(probably most days)they had several local cheese makers to buy from. This is one of the must do trips.
We had a fantastic guide who was knowledgeable and helpful. He gave us an excellent introduction to the Basilica and area before we were given a couple of hours to discover on our own, which we also enjoyed. The guide informed us of the boys' choir who were singing at 1pm and we were thrilled to be able to participate in this. On both journeys, to and from Montserrat, our guide told us a lot about the buildings, history and area we were travelling through and also gave us time just to look and enjoy. I would recommend this tour, it's a fabuous place and a wonderful contrast to the city.
Our tour guide, Fernando, was very knowledgable and had a wry sense of humor. The trip was well organized and the destination was truly amazing. It was a highlight of our trip to Barcelona. Highly recommend!

RECIPE: Vegetarian Birthday Cake?
One of my son's best friends is vegetarian and they want to have a surprise birthday party for him. The problem is I don't know how to make a cake without eggs. He eats (or drinks) dairy products but does not eat eggs. Does anyone have a good cake recipe without eggs or tofu? (My son does not like tofu.) He says his buddy subs pear puree for eggs, will that work? If so, how much per egg?
There's something called Ener-G egg substitute that's vegan, that might work, but in my experience the cake won't look or taste like the cake you're used to, so be prepared. It can still be really good but it'll be a little different.
If you use silken tofu in a cake recipe, your son wouldn't have a clue it's even there -- tofu is pretty flavorless. He may not like to eat it as a separate item in a dish, but blended in it's unnoticeable. I used it in a pumpkin pie once instead of eggs and cream and no one knew the difference. But I understand if you don't want to do that.
If you have a chance, visit a bookstore or library and look at the vegan cookbooks (the vegetarian cookbooks will mostly use eggs) and their cake recipes. You should be able to find something there.
There's also lots on the web. I'm including a link below that talks about baking eggless cakes and also has some recipes. And here's a link to copy and paste into your browser, it has several recipes:
and I haven't tried this but it got great reviews, and if you don't want to buy soy milk you can use regular milk.
Rich Chocolate Cake
Well the name says it all. This is the richest chocolate cake around. To make it a 2 layer cake, multiply the ingredients by one half and divide into 2 seperate springform pans. If you don't have springform pans, cover the bottoms in parchment paper or it will stick.
springform pans, 2 good sized bowls, a wisk, saucepan
3/4 cup whole wheat pastry flour
1 cup all purp unbleached flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon baking soda
3/4 cup good cocoa powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 cup plain soymilk
1/2 cup canola oil
1 1/2 cups pure maple syrup
1 teaspoon apple cider vinegar
2 teaspoons vanilla
Preheat oven to 350 F. Spray a 9 inch springform pan with non stick cooking spray.
Sift together flours and baking powder and baking soda.
In a saucepan, heat the soymilk on low-medium heat. When it is slightly bubbling, add the cocoa powder and wisk well until it is dissolved. Remove from heat.
Combine the other liquid ingredients in a bowl and whisk well. Add the cocoa mixture and combine. Add the wet ingredients to the dry.
Pour batter into prepared pan, bake at 350 F for 25 minutes until a toothpick or butter knife comes out clean. Let cool completely and frost with your favorite frosting.
Here is a link that might be useful: about eggless cakes
Thank you for your help Carol Ann, I posted this on the cooking forum also and Tammy told me about the same egg replacer. I think I have a good recipe now. This one sounds good (I know I saw it in one of the vegetarian books I got from the library) but I don't have any maple syrup on hand. Really bad weather day here so I can't get to the store. Here is the recipe I am going to use, I found it in The Passionate Vegetarian, some of the ladies on the cooking forum have used it and said it is good.
Here is the recipe:
Here is one for a 9x13:
* 3 cups all-purpose flour
* 2 cups white sugar
* 1 teaspoon salt
* 2 teaspoons baking soda
* 2/3 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
* 1/2 cup vegetable oil
* 2 tablespoons distilled white vinegar
* 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
* 2 cups cold water
1. Sift flour, sugar, salt, soda, and cocoa together into a 9 x 13 inch ungreased cake pan. Make three wells. Pour oil into one well, vinegar into second, and vanilla into third well. Pour cold water over all, and stir well with fork.
2. Bake at 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) for 30 to 40 minutes, or until tooth pick inserted comes out clean. Frost with your favorite icing.
I have also made it as a layer cake and a bundt cake. Just grease and flour the pan. Or grease and dust with cocoa powder. And mix the cake in a bowl as usual.

Canstar Community News - ONLINE EDITION
From Canada to Kenya
Exchange program looking for host families for 18 youth
An international exchange program is looking for Winnipeg families to host a group of 18 youth volunteers from across Canada and Kenya.
Youth involved in the Winnipeg/Kenya exchange as part of Canada World Youth's Youth Leaders in Action program will be arriving in the city Sun., Sept. 8., project supervisor Muna Salah said.
Families will host volunteers in pairs until December 2013, and receive a weekly $180 stipend for costs. Only one spare room is required.
"We really encourage families that apply to be inclusive with the volunteers," Salah said.
"Rather than treating them as tenants or guests, treating them as family and including them in their everyday lives."
The full exchange runs from until March, with volunteers spending three months in Kenya's Kimende region after they wrap up Winnipeg.
In Winnipeg, they'll be split up and split their week spending three days volunteering across downtown and the inner city, including Winnipeg Harvest, the Office of Campus Sustainability at the University of Winnipeg, IRCOM, the NEEDS Centre, and Oyate Tipi in the North End.
They'll spend their other two days volunteering as group with other local agencies and participating in educational activities, Salah said.
Since joining the exchange in 2011 as a volunteer, Salah said her involvement gave her a chance to see how active other youth were in their communities and gain a better sense of social issues in Canada and overseas.
"It allowed me to see the world beyond my family, my community, my city, and more importantly, my country," said Salah, 27, who lives in Fort Richmond.
Though Manitobans can't get involved in the Winnipeg/Kenya exchange, Salah said, they can hop on exchanges to other parts of the country. Volunteer spots open at other exchanges across the country, including Halifax/Indonesia, Quebec/Ghana, Saskatchewan/Nicaragua , B.C./Mozambique, and Nunavut/Peru, she said.
Since 1971, 32,000 youth from Canada and around the world have participated in exchanges across 67 countries.
To become a host family, contact Salah at email@example.com or 204-881-3343.

2015 Bill Summary
The legislative session began on January 7, 2015, but legislators in the House and Senate have already filed nearly a dozen anti-women's health bills.
Read PPMO's latest 2015 bill summary.
Make Your Voice Heard!
Inaction by the Legislature's Leadership has already cost us two years of federally funded coverage under the Affordable Care Act. However, if Missouri's Medicaid Program were extended in the next session, it will still be at no cost to the state of Missouri for the next year, and minimal cost after that.
Write to your legislator in support of Medicaid Expansion in Missouri today!
Share Your Story
Time and again we hear from legislators, "My constituents just don't care about reproductive health issues." But we know they are misinformed. Thousands of Missourians across our state care deeply about reproductive health issues – from access to affordable birth control and medically accurate sex education to life-saving cancer screenings and safe, legal abortion.
Confused About Health Insurance?
Planned Parenthood can help you understand what the new law means for you, what to look for in a health insurance plan, and how to enroll.

Brought to you by
No, we eat it with dinner. My family eats it in place of cranberry sauce.. you know the can-shaped jelly stuff, lol. But DH's family likes both, so we have both.
The other stuff I make, well it was passed down from my mom, so there's no real recipe..but.. Well I take two bags of seasoned croutons and pour them in a large roasting pan (ours is the lid of the roaster).
I'll do it like this..
Stuffing:1-2 bags of seasoned croutons1 stick of margarine or butterturkey neck and giblets1 medium onion1-2 cups of celeryGround sage (to taste)
While the turkey is roasting, I put the neck and giblets in a saucepan with enough water to cover them all, some butter or margarine and a little bit of salt. I then put that over low heat. This will start to make the stock needed for the stuffing.
I chop the onion and celery and add it to a skillet with about a tablespoon of butter or margarine (use the heart healthy stuff if you like.. I do). Saute them together until they're translucent. You dont want the onion to carmelize, just become clear and soft. Then I take them and pour them over the seasoned croutons, cover it and set it aside.
When the neck and giblets are done, I take a fork and remove as much meat as I can from the neck and then chop up the rest of the giblets. Getting the meat is optional, I like little bits of turkey in my stuffing, so I put it in. But I also take the broth that it made and pour it over the croutons and stir them in. At this point, DH is usually ready to baste the turkey so I have him get me 1-2 cups of broth from the turkey pan. Very carefully, as the liquid from the turkey pan is usually scalding hot, pour that over the croutons too and stir it in well. Cover it and set it aside. I repeat that part - taking the drippings from the pan - until the croutons are soft and moist, not too soggy, though and then I sprinkle on the sage. I like a stronger taste of sage, some dont, so it's up to you..sprinkle, stir, and taste.. etc Add salt as well if you think it needs it. Then cover it and set it aside.
When the turkey's done, dont turn off the oven. While DH is carving the turkey, I put the stuffing in and let it bake, uncovered during the time he's cutting things up. This allows the top part to get a crust and heats the stuffing the rest of the way through.
Then we put it in a bowl and serve it up.
I'm sorry I'm not specific. Most of the stuff was what my mom did and how she did it.. she rarely wrote it down, it was all by look and taste.
We do the traditional stuff too but I saw a stuffing recipe on Rachel Ray this morning that I might try. She didn't give the measurments but I know you can get the recipe on the website. It had apples,onions celery,butter and premade stuffing mix. She also said that when she bakes her stuffing she puts it in muffin cups because then everyone gets some crunchy bits. I though that was a good idea.
Actually my mom makes meatloaf in muffin tins because it cooks super fast and comes out in little individual portions.
You can search around on allrecipies.com
I love that site. It will tell you how to adjust for more or less people, and also has ratings, so you can see how many people think the recipe is good or not.
Sweet Potato Balls
4. Take a small amount of sweet potato mixture; depending on desired size; wrap it around a large marshmallow completely covering marshmallow. Roll the sweet potato ball in crushed corn flakes. Bake in lightly buttered pan at 375 degrees until heated thoroughly.
This is the best cranberry relish recipe I've ever found. It's a little putzy, but sooo worth it.
the problem with our recipes is that for most of them.. no.. for all of 'em, there isnt a "fixed" recipe. Except for one..
Cranberry Salad (a family tradtion)1 1lb bag of cranberries, washed1 cup sugar1 cup chopped celery1 cup chopped walnuts1 small can of crushed pineapple, drained1 box of orange jello1 packet of knox gelatin in 1/4 cup cold water
Grind cranberries in the food processor until very fine. Add everything else into a dish. I use a 9x9 baking pan so I can put it in the fridge. Stir together and refigerate until ready to serve. I usually make it the night before to let everything blend together. And you can use the sugar free jello and splenda for the sugar to lower the calorie content.

Comfort, Handling, Reliability, Key Code Entry
Nothing Known
Reliable — First impressions: Nice looking and comfortable. The trunk has plenty of room, and there is plenty of leg room in the cabin. This car gets about twenty to twenty five miles per gallon. It a power drivers seat and mirrors. There is two points of access to the trunk from the cabin. This car has been tested as very safe, according to many crash tests.

Roomy, comfortable, good value.
Gas mileage is so-so
Good Value — Good value for the money. Rides and drives nice and has a lot of interior room. Very comfortable and would be great for long distance drives. The gas mileage is mediocre at best but overall it is a nice reliable family car.

Roomy, luxury
Reliability. Must have had a lemon.
Comfortable Lemon — Ford Taurus SEL was very comfortable and roomy. Brakes were always very stiff as well as gas pedal. It was on the shop at leads twice a year for things other than maintence. It was an 2005 and the cruise control broke and the gas gage broke, both things that usually don't brake for only being 8 yrs old. Other than that it was a good car. Will go with a toyota or Subaru next though.
Primary Use: Family transportation

Nothing, although I'm not a huge fan of leather...
I Love My Car!! — I love my car. It looks good, rides smoothly, handles well, what more can I say? It's roomy, is pretty good on gas, and very dependable. It has great trunk space, a moon roof, and all the fun gizmos any comfortable car needs. I even named her Black Betty!! The only complaint I have is that is has leather...but that's also good too!! I love my car!!

The cost!
Appearance, model, mileage, maker
Taurus — I really love my car... not. It used to be my mom's car, and is mine now. Whenever I see it I just think that- so the coolness factor is -25. Besides that, it's in good shape. A few things need to be repaired soon, but it's easy to drive and is a fairly smooth ride. It's not a car that I would list as "fun."

Dont have to worry about scratches or dings
gas mileage, and looks, "interior is inferior"
Taurus — Probably the most average car on the market. Nothing special about the way it looks, feels or drives. Acceleration is mild, handling is mediocre, and the gas mileage is alot worse than you might expect...14.5 average mpg! However, it was cheap.

Equal Or Better Than Any Mid Sized Sedan On The Market,ford Quality Is A Fact. — A dependable,easy to drive sedan,easy to park,excellent transportation,rides highway speed easily and smoothly.Low maintenance costs and the 3 litre V6 is fuel efficient.A practical transportation choice,that is also a comfortable ride.Nice fit and finish on body and interior.Larger back seat passengers need to watch out for banging head on door frame when entering vehicle.

Basic transportation
drinks fuel with 3.0 V6 and after 100K miles requires a lot of maintenace.
A Perfect Train Station Car — It has decent power but as plain as they make them, power is good, ride is average, handles larger than it actually it is. Cargo room is more than you'd expect. Not great for long drives because of lack of support in seats. But perfect for short trips.

It's no surprise that the quants are a strange bunch. Last year, when their strategies cascaded to recorded losses, they blamed the markets for misbehavior. Now it seems a hedge fund looking for someone with quant skills has placed a particularly strange ad on Craigslist.
Hedge Fund Rumors: Liquidation From Quant Fund In Boston
We're hearing that a Boston based quant fund has been liquidating its positions today, perhaps concerned about margin calls from its brokers. So far, we haven't been able to track down a name. J W Henry & Co are the only quants in Boston who come to mind but they haven't returned our calls yet. […]
Bloody November: AQR Losses 5.8%
We've noted more than once around here that November's market volatility was likely to have hit quant funds particularly hard, although there's no evidence that it caused the kind of cascading losses and sell-offs we saw this summer. More evidence for this call comes this morning from the New York Post's Roddy Boyd, who reports […]
Just because the markets rallied yesterday doesn't mean we're letting go of the sell-off of the previous week. Sure the Dow was up 319 points. But that's still less than half of what it lost in the previous four sessions. The skeptics of our theory of a quant sell-off last week persist in the view […]
Another Quant Liquidation Under Way?
Two days ago, we told you the there were widespread rumors that a large quant fund—possibly AQR Capital Management—might have run into some liquidity problems. Yesterday the post reported that the Greenwich-based hedge fund had scrapped its planned initial public offering after a dismal performance caused several large investors to pull their cash out of […]
Morgan Stanley, Quantocide, Quants
Don't Ever Sneak Up On Morgan Stanley Like That Again
Morgan Stanley's quantitative strategies group, which lost $480 million during the quarter ended August 31, disclosed in a regulatory filing today that out of its 14 losing days, on its best one, $390 million was misplaced. The securities firm said that it was "caught off guard" by "widespread" investor selling, which their models had not […]
Hedge Funds, Quantocide, Quants
Simulating The Quant Bloodbath
A pair of academics at MIT have published a paper that seems to confirm the Rothman Theory of this summer's Quant Bloodbath. The Rothman Theory—named for Lehman Brothers analyst Matthew Rothman who laid it out in a note published in the midst of the blood bath—held that the initial quant fund losses were triggered a […]
The Quant Quagmire
Goldman's Quant Memo Points To Bigger Problems For The Quants
Can the quants fix their problems? After last week's quant bloodbath, this is a question that hedge fund investors and the quant fund managers have been asking. But one popular solution—reducing the risks from too many quant funds following the same factors by bringing in new factors—may create even more problems for at least some […]

I don't disagree that housing needs must be addressed, but frankly the proposed reforms leave the way open for greenfield sites to be built upon indiscriminately. Whatever reforms take place, they must focus on the redevelopment and repurposing of existing, disused land and property. This would still stimulate the economy but in a sustainable way.
Julius (Oct 19th), the sites which would be effectively opened up for development currently support the remaining biodiversity and natural resources we have left, which are paramount to ongoing economic prosperity in the future. Sacrificing that for a quick win and a brief rise out of recession would ultimately put the long term future of the UK economy in jeopardy.
ujan7bwGZp I agree re definition but you've got to agree that the fact it is being talked about is a good sign. Would be great to see the 'greenest government ever' change the planning laws to incentivise green, sustainable development and heavily tax greenfield projects.

This in turn compliments the MPSC burn site off Sunshine Drive. In a bit more detail, the creek work involves the ongoing war on noxious weed blackberries, targeted weeds like Sweet Pittosporum and Sallow Wattle. Whilst work is in progress it always looks very untidy and a bit of a mess. However, thanks to our new contractor Sam Tucker, who will be working with us, he has created lizard runs, swamp rats runs down to the water and removed the finer fuels. Marie Claire continues her excellent work along the creek banks. Next Working Bee Sunday 6 April on the Panorama crossover 9.30 – 12.30. Please come dressed appropriately. Southern Brown Tree Frog (Littoria ewingii) Also called: Brown Tree Frog , Ewing's Tree Frog , Whistling Tree Frog Photo Gill Gordon We still have Frogs! Whilst weeding in the creek, Marie Claire found this cute little fellow mid March. The Southern Brown Tree Frog, a widespread and common species found in great numbers in flooded grassland or marshes. They are agile climbers and jumpers. Like most of our small tree frogs, this species is a voracious insectivore capable of leaping to catch a fly in mid-flight! Males usually call from the ground or in low vegetation, at the water's edge or in water, floating amongst the vegetation. The call is a series of rapid harsh, whirring pulsing notes repeated 5-15 times - "creeeeeee creee creee cree cree cree". The first note is usually the longest. Size up to and between 30mm and 60mm Adults can be found in all habitat types, and are even common in gardens in suburban areas. They frequent wet and flooded areas for breeding but can often be found calling long distances from water. Eggs and tadpoles can be found in still water in ponds, dams, lakes, streamside ponds and flooded roadside ditches.

Using Melbourne Water money we will be going up the left hand arm of the creek and the very welcome following letter has been received by SRCFG. I am delighted to advise you that the Sunshine Reserve Conservation and Fireguard Group have been successful in acquiring assistance for the Panorama Drive restoration project, through the Mornington Peninsula Land Protection Incentive Scheme. The volunteer work of the group in Sunshine Reserve is seen in high regard by the Shire and the broader community. As you know, there is not always enough funding available to complete the work required in all of our bushland and roadside reserves. Therefore the importance of community and government land managers working together is critical for the long term preservation of our environment and landscape. Thank you for taking the time to apply for the grant. We will look forward to working with your group on this project over the months ahead. Joanne Lynch, Sustainable Rural Land Officer, Mornington Peninsula Shire. Blackberries are a big threat to indigenous vegetation and are also good food for foxes. So along with mulch spreading by Mornington Youth Enterprise, planting around the area by ourselves, and the clearing of the drains under the road, there will be considerable disturbance. However in the long term the area will be much improved. We are going back into the creek to continue the rehabilitation of the area from the top bridge to the sea. Vic Roads has the slip on the Esplanade in hand, thanks to Greg Hunt's assistance. Conservation Volunteers Australia will come and help plant in May. We are very pleased to announce the receipt of a federal grant from Envirofund.
