This course will begin with a summation of Biblical teaching about wealth and poverty, and the succeeding sessions will study diverse interpretations of that teaching in the history of Christian thought. Attention will be paid to the historical context of the theology under study, including contemporary ethical teaching and economic practice. The goals of the course will be to appreciate the paradoxical character of Biblical teaching on wealth and poverty, as well as the diverse ways in which theologies on wealth and poverty have reflected the impact of socio-economic change. The value of the study will be its assisting students to cope with 21st century challenges in its uneven regional and social distribution of wealth and poverty.
Basic Degree students enrol in WYT3927HF.

Support Local Control of Education - Get Missouri Out Of Common Core
We reject the Federal Government's intrusion into our education system and want control over what is taught in our classroom returned to our state and local school boards.
• Common Core removes control of our state k-12 education standards from Missouri and puts it in the hands of private trade organizations who wrote and copyrighted the standards and who are not accountable to the public which pays for their implementation.
• It allows the federal government to dictate the terms of our teacher evaluations.
• It makes it practically impossible for local school districts to control their costs because independent consortia develop assessment tools which our districts must use. These on-line assessments are not only many times more expensive than our existing MAP tests, they are a technical impossibility for many schools in our state who do not have broadband access to the internet.
• Common Core Standards are not internationally benchmarked as marketed, nor have they been tested and found to be superior to existing state standards. They have never been tried before. Their implementation in 45 states amounts to a massive pilot program that uses our children as test subjects.
• Common Core assessments ramp up the collection of personally identifiable data on our children. Through various agreements this data will be sent directly to the US Department of Education who has changed the Family Education Rights Privacy Act (FERPA) to allow this data to be shared with other government agencies and third parties without our knowledge or consent.
• The architect of the Common Core Standards has vowed to align the SAT tests to these standards thereby pressuring homeschoolers and private schools to teach to these standards as well. Millions of children will be lost inside a one size fits all system designed to create equal mediocrity among the new "global citizens."

my child wants to goto public school but I told him he would be homeschooled at the same time so he wont have any free time because I want him to have a good education not the common core dumming him down
Candie Harelson
Common Core is much like Obamacare, a Band-Aid on a fractured bone. Too little too late. I want the government OUT of the classrooms. I want Moooochelle Obama out of the lunch rooms of American children. I want less government in my life. NO MORE COMMON CORE!!!!
Donna Vasquez
Too much standardization and not enough individualism in Common Core. Individualism is what made our country great, and would continue to make it great if we would allow it.

POTSDAM High school students flocked to SUNY Potsdam on Thursday to learn about what they eat and where it comes from.
GardenShare, a Canton-based organization that promotes healthy, local food, held its first youth summit in 2011, pulling in almost 250 students from 30 school districts.
Its success prompted GardenShare to hold the event again. The plan is to make it a biennial tradition.
This time the summit had fewer attendees but a more definite goal: send students back with a concrete plan to improve their communities.
Teams from 20 school districts attended, comprising a total of about 180 students and teachers. They gathered in groups to learn the benefits of kitchen gardens, the tactics used by food advertisers and the options available for healthy school lunches.
Aviva M. Gold, executive director of GardenShare, said the goal is to teach teens about healthy, local food at a time in their lives when they start to be passionate about and aware of the issues that affect them.
I think its abundantly clear to everyone right now that something is wrong with our food system, she said.
After learning more about the food they eat, students gathered with their teachers to craft a specific plan on how to apply these lessons to their home districts. Whether starting a school garden or a club to continue the discussion, students were urged to take action.
The idea is to find solutions that are good for the community and for ourselves and our environment, Ms. Gold said.
Brooke R.A. Lalonde, 17, of Canton said she wants to start an education program in which she and her fellow high school students will teach children in Canton Elementary School about healthy eating.
It will definitely help us learn about food education, because well learn by teaching it, she said.
Students gathered around tables and pitched their ideas. Some suggested a hunger banquet, a fundraising dinner where one person might be served a steak dinner while another is served a bowl of rice based on a lottery draw, to raise awareness about hunger.
Terry I. Doe, a Liberty Partnership official who accompanied students from Massena High School, said it is important for students to learn about where their food comes from and how hunger affects people in the north country.
It teaches them about food issues other than whats healthy and whats not, she said.
Awareness is the most important part, Ms. Gold said.
When they make a purchase, they make a decision, to support their local economy, or healthy food, or accessible food, she said.

Hot and cool compresses are common treatments for a variety of medical conditions, as changing the temperature of the skin can reduce or enhance blood flow, offering myriad benefits for various problems. When applied to the face, compresses can treat everything from puffiness around the eyes to migraine headaches to nasal congestion related to sinusitis or allergies. Using a traditional compress on the face can be difficult and awkward, leading many people to look for alternative treatments. The Pearl Ice face mask collection is designed as the solution to this problem and makes treating the facial area an easy task.
The Pearl Ice mask collection contains both eye and full facial masks that can be chilled or heated, depending on your needs. Ideal for treating the inflammation that follows dermatological and plastic surgical treatments, the masks conform to the shape of your facial contours, allowing for maximum effectiveness. The masks can also be used as a part of your bathing regimen to stimulate relaxation and alleviate stress. Discover the many uses for Pearl Ice masks by exploring the collection now.

After you use a cooling mask from Pearl Ice, you'll wonder how you ever lived without one. The enclosed chilled pearls mold to your eyelids so the mask's weight is distributed evenly over your periorbital area. The mask won't freeze or stiffen because Pearl Ice utilizes a FDA-approved, allergen-free soft plastic.
For cooling comfort, store the Pearl Ice mask in your freezer before applying to your face. This cold compress may be particularly effective if you're looking to alleviate puffiness and dark circles associated with lack of sleep. Perhaps you've been staring at the computer for too long and are suffering from eye strain. The Pearl Ice mask may relax your muscles. Seasonal allergies can cause eyes to be itchy, and 10 - 15 minutes with the Pearl Ice mask may relieve the discomfort. Or maybe you are hoping to reduce the swelling and bruising associated with an injury or surgery. Regular applications of a Pearl Ice mask may help speed your recovery time.
For a warm application, immerse the Pearl Ice mask in hot water for five minutes. The water should not be boiling. If you have nasal congestion from a cold or the flu, reach for a warm Pearl Ice mask. This may relieve the sinus pressure you're experiencing. Are you plagued by tension headaches? Lie back and apply a warm Pearl Ice mask for 10 - 15 minutes. Your stress may melt away. And for an anti-aging boost, some beauty experts recommend a daily warm compress to stimulate circulation.

Why the FUD? BFS recommends 1000Hz, not a million. Please show me where BFS recommends more than that. It's not even freakin' possible to use more than 1000Hz with BFS.
Ah, you mean the -ck patch, not BFS. You have no clue (again) what BFS is. And even the -ck patch in question even says that more than 1000Hz is only used for some broken software that depend on timer frequency and should not be used without a strong reason because it can break things.
You're a FUD spreader, kraftman. And the worst part is you know it, but simply don't give a shit.
More FUD. Those problems were fixed as soon as the kernel 3.0 BFS came out. It was the CFS scheduler that fucked up the performance of my system. With BFS + 3.0.1, everything is fine again. Oh, and my system is configured perfectly.Last time you were bashing KDE just because your home made and messed up by yourself distro had some problems with it - you were using unstable graphic drivers... maybe this time it's the same?
Kraftman: clueless and ignorant as ever. And with proof, as is evident from the above.

Apple Cinnamon Muffins Recipe
Using buckwheat gives these fragrant gems a nutty heartiness I enjoy. If you don't care for buckwheat, use your own favorite gluten-free flour blend for the 1 and 1/2 cups flour in this recipe.
3/4 cup GF buckwheat flour or brown rice flour
1/2 cup sorghum flour
1/4 cup tapioca starch/flour
1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon sea salt
1 teaspoon xanthan gum
1 teaspoon cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon allspice
1 cup natural applesauce
1/3 cup light olive oil
1 cup organic brown sugar- or 1/2 cup raw agave nectar or more, to taste*
2 teaspoons bourbon vanilla
1 tablespoon Ener-G Egg Replacer (for 2 large eggs) mixed with 1/4 cup warm water
4 tablespoons apple juice, more as needed
Preheat the oven to 350ºF.
In a mixing bowl, whisk together the flours and dry ingredients (through spices). Beat in the wet ingredients and brown sugar/agave until smooth.
Add more apple juice a tablespoon at a time, as needed to make a smooth batter.
Stir in:
1 1/2 cups chopped fresh apple
1/2 cup chopped pecans or walnuts, optional
Spoon the batter into twelve muffin cups.
Sprinkle with raw sugar, if desired, for a crunchy top.
Bake in the center of a preheated oven until firm and golden- about 20 to 25 minutes or so. Test with a wooden pick if you need to. Remove the muffins from the pan and cool on a wire rack.
Wrap and freeze for on-the-go treats. Thaw at room temperature or briefly zap in a microwave if you like your muffins warm.
I made these with 1 cup organic brown sugar and found them to be the right balance of sweet; but I receive so many requests for agave as a sub I included an alternative. If you like your muffins less sweet start with 1/2 cup agave. Taste test the batter. If you need more sweetness, add more. You may need to adjust baking time.
Makes twelve muffins.

Local loop dynamics
May 31, 1999 8:00 pm | by Jeffrey Krauss, Local loop litigator and President of Telecommunications and Technology Poicy | CommentsThe FCC has a proceeding underway dealing with the deployment of broadband services by local phone companies, and they've just added two very interesting topics: the sharing of local loop spectrum between the incumbent local exchange carrier (ILEC) and competitive local exchange carriers (CLECs); and the radio emissions from new broadband digital subscriber local loop (xDSL) technologies.
MSOs on verge of deploying assortment of digital services
May 31, 1999 8:00 pm | by Roger Brown, Editor-in-Chief | CommentsThey say that once everything goes digital, you can do anything. Long-held beliefs and practices, like dedicated, 6-MHz "channels," are supplanted with bitstreams that simply don't care what the payload is. That's good news for cable operators, who can leverage their wide bandwidths, along with digital compression, to dramatically improve signal quality while simultaneously expanding the number...

Concurrent projects underway at Buckeye Cablesystems, the affiliated cable TV provider, include the ongoing upgrade to hybrid fiber/coaxial infrastructure and a ro...
Building the cornerstone
May 31, 1999 8:00 pm | by Dick Gulley, Staff Applications Engineer, Scientific-Atlanta Inc. | CommentsThe impact of convergence and digital technology on the cable industry is leading to major changes in network design and management, and probably nowhere is this more evident than at the headend. The combination of video, voice and data is placing tremendous loads on cable systems that were built just for the delivery of TV programming.
Planning for the future
May 31, 1999 8:00 pm | by Michael Laferty, Associate Editor | CommentsThe digital revolution-whether it is video, voice or data-is shaking the cable industry down to its very roots…literally and figuratively. At the very heart of this revolution is the cable headend. With the addition of high-speed data, digital TV, a host of interactive services, and finally, lifeline telephony, old structures and old designs simply won't do.
Creating smarter headends
May 31, 1999 8:00 pm | by Patrick Harshman, Ph.D., Director of Product Line Management, Digital Systems; and Elisa Camahort, Product Marketing Specialist, Harmonic Inc. | CommentsIt used to be simple. MSOs provided analog video service, and telcos offered data and telephone service. Though they had the same customers, MSOs and telcos didn't compete. Now, MSOs face ongoing competition from broadcasters and satellite operators, and new competition from telcos with xDSL services, to offer subscribers advanced broadband services.
Prosperity's dangers in a service industry
May 31, 1999 8:00 pm | by Walter S. Ciciora | CommentsFor most (but certainly not all) Americans, this is a time of great prosperity. Employment is at record peace-time highs. Most employees feel somewhat secure in their jobs. But because these are more competitive times, the degree of security is a little bit less than in previous economic up-cycles. Luxury goods and premium brands sell well.
Serving up a new business
April 30, 1999 8:00 pm | by Craig Kuhl, Contributing Editor | CommentsThe new economics of video-on-demand (VOD) are piquing the interest of a growing number of multiple system operators (MSOs) who, in the past, have considered VOD's multiple components too costly and the revenues too skimpy to venture into the business. However, since Time Warner Cable convened the Full Service Network's $300 million VOD pathfinding trial in Orlando in the early 1990s, the costs...
Healthy skepticism
April 30, 1999 8:00 pm | by Roger Brown, Editor in Chief | CommentsOK, it's confession time. As a journalist, I'm supposed to be above these things, but I'll admit that when it comes to digital subscriber line (DSL) service, I never really believed it would work. DSL is the telcos' great hope for revitalizing their mostly copper network because it allows the provision of data services over existing twisted-pair wire.
Technical types at the table
April 30, 1999 8:00 pm | by Thomas G. Robinson, Executive Vice President, CBG Communications | CommentsNot to say anything derisive about corporate attorney types and other franchise negotiators, because I love them all dearly (in Philly we say we love them "like they was my brother"), but let's be frank here. When it comes to technical issues, I sometimes think they just complicate matters. The ability of any particular technology to meet consumer needs would seemingly be best assessed from a t...
PacketCable spec nears completion
April 30, 1999 8:00 pm | by David Iler, Associate Editor | Comments... part II Network management This portion of the spec centers upon the SNMP (Simple Network Management Protocol)-based information received at the headend from cable modems in the form of Management Information Base (MIB) data. This data is used to measure the reliability and speed of a network. A draft of the spec is due in July.
Taking Control
April 30, 1999 8:00 pm | by Michael Lafferty, Associated Editor | Comments... part II Andy Paff, chief technology officer at Worldbridge Broadband Services (www.wb-broadband.com), says the need for third-party service providers is self-evident, given the costs of building your own Network Operations Center (NOC). "One of the things that became apparent to us," says Paff, "is that operators are going to have to watch their networks seven days a week, 24 hours a day.
Northpoint: A true test?
April 30, 1999 8:00 pm | by Jeffrey Krauss, Home Video Viewer and President of Telecommunications and Technology Policy | CommentsHere's an interesting idea. Because DBS satellites are parked over the equator, DBS home dishes all point to the south. So if you had terrestrial transmitters pointing south, with receive dishes pointing north, you could use the same frequencies. In fact, you could use the same set-top boxes for both DBS and this terrestrial service, and merely add a second antenna and switch between the two an...
Taking aim at cable modems
April 30, 1999 8:00 pm | by Roger Brown, Editor-in-Chief | CommentsConsolidation within the cable television industry has clouded the issue a bit, but most people still consider Denver and the Rocky Mountain West to be the capital of cable TV. It is perhaps appropriate, then, that US West has targeted the area for its massive roll-out of digital subscriber line-based services.
DOCIS heads north
March 31, 1999 7:00 pm | by James Careless | CommentsCanada's Cogeco Cable has gone where no MSO has gone before: it has commercially deployed DOCSIS (Data-Over-Cable Service Interface Specification) cable modems to all but one of its systems in Ontario, Canada. The only exception is Kingston, where Cogeco Cable has clustered its older LANCity modems to use up their effective lifespans.

The public storm of enthusiasm for his great vocal performance on Swedish guitarist Yngwie Malmsteen's Perpetual Flame (2008) haven't even faded yet as the American Tim 'Ripper' Owens's own impressive offering arrives at the stores: late May 2009 will see the arrival of his first solo album, Play My Game, proving that he's not only an outstanding vocalist but also a highly talented and extremely experienced composer. Play My Game consists of around a dozen brand-new tracks that Owens composed himself or together with renowned friends, such as Bob Kulick, Chris Caffery (Savatage, Trans-Siberian Orchestra), Mike Callahan (ex-Earshot) and John Comprix (Beyond Fear, Ringworm). "A lot of my fans suspected that the debut by my group, Beyond Fear, had basically been a solo project, but Beyond Fear are a real band. We rehearse together, we compose as a team, and we do everything together. Play My Game is my first real solo effort on which I controlled everything, from the song writing to the final mix. This album is 100% Tim Owens."
The list some of the guest musicians featured on Owens solo debut is even more spectacular than the illustrious cast of his co-composers: along with Bob Kulick and Chris Caffery and the others, Ripper was supported by countless musicians happy to make an appearance on the album. Owens: "All these musicians are not only great artists but also really good guys and loyal friends whom I only had to call, and they all came and played on my album. I asked Michael Wilton, for example, only for a solo on 'To Live Again', but in the end he recorded all the guitar parts of the song. Crazy! And Bob Kulick called Billy Sheehan when I was at the studio in Los Angeles. The next day he was sitting in the rehearsal room, playing bass for me. Sometimes I just couldn't believe how smoothly it all went off."
Fans and experts alike will love this sensational all-star line-up and may rest assured that the haunting songs will effortlessly live up to this illustrious cast of musicians: Tim ´Ripper` Owens has never sounded more impressive, melodic and multi-faceted! "I've gotten better as a songwriter," Owens explains. "And I also write songs that the fans can really get into and get their fist pounding in the air. I've always been a great fan of the Black Sabbath line-up featuring Ronnie James Dio, and I love Judas Priest. Both bands delivered records that are straight forward and go directly to the bloodstream – which also happens to be my compositional approach."
Well that one is out the window. Surgery and out for almost a year. https://t.co/DtLHpEcQ1p

Folate —Supplementation Possibly Helpful | Minerals —Supplementation Possibly Helpful, But Take at a Different Time of Day | Calcium Citrate —May Increase Aluminum Absorption
The term "antacid" is used to describe certain compounds that directly neutralize stomach acid. Tums, Maalox Advanced Regular Strength, and Mylanta all fall into this category. The active ingredients in most antacids are various forms of calcium, magnesium, and aluminum. Antacids are useful mostly for symptomatic relief of uncomfortable "acid stomach" and also may be helpful for heartburn.
Many antacids are available today, including
Other drugs work by reducing the stomach's production of acid. These are discussed separately in the articles on H 2 Blockers (eg, Zantac [ranitidine], Axid [nizatidine], Tagamet [cimetidine], Pepcid [famotidine]) and Proton Pump Inhibitors (Prilosec [omeprazole], Prevacid [lansoprazole]). These drugs produce a more powerful effect than antacids and are used for ulcers as well as for the treatment of esophageal reflux, commonly known as heartburn.
Research suggests that antacids physically bind to folate and reduce its absorption by the body. 1 However, the decrease in folate absorption is relatively small, and this interaction may be clinically significant only in individuals who take antacids regularly and whose diets are low in folate content.
Different types of antacids can interfere with the absorption of various minerals. Supplements containing the US Dietary Reference Intake (formerly known as the Recommended Dietary Allowance) of these minerals should be helpful, especially if you take them at a different time of day from when you take antacids, at least 2 hours before or after taking your antacid.
Any antacid can interfere with the absorption of iron , zinc , and possibly other minerals by neutralizing stomach acid. 2
Aluminum-containing antacids can bind with phosphorus and interfere with its absorption, and this can further lead to calcium depletion. 3,4
Antacids that contain calcium may also compete for absorption with iron. 5-9 Although calcium antacids may alter the absorption of magnesium , the clinical importance of this effect appears to be minimal. 10,11 Calcium-containing antacids, when taken with zinc supplements, might substantially decrease zinc absorption. 12-16 However, the presence of a meal appears to mitigate this effect. Finally, calcium antacids might also impair the absorption of manganese and chromium . 17,18,19
Concerns have been raised that the aluminum in some antacids may not be good for you. 20 Since there is some evidence that calcium citrate supplements might increase the absorption of aluminum, 21-25 it might not be a good idea to take calcium citrate at the same time of day as aluminum-containing antacids. Another option is to use other forms of calcium, or to avoid antacids containing aluminum.

San Juan Island photographers Chris Teren and Traci Walter spotted a rare sight while photographing eagles feeding on the Nooksack River on Sunday. One of the eagles has white spots on its feathers, a condition known as leucism.
According to the Cornell Lab of Ornithology, leucism is the unusual condition in which the pigmentation cells in an animal or bird fail to develop properly. This can result in unusual white patches appearing on the animal, or, more rarely, completely white creatures.
Cornell says leucism is relatively unusual in birds. From 2000-2006, Project FeederWatch participants reported fewer than 1000 leucistic birds. Given that participants report about 5.5 million birds each season, the percentage of leucistic birds being reported is very small.

Weekend Teaching Series: You Own the Weekend: Capo High School (week 3 of 5)
Sermon in a Sentence: We try to fill our life with so many things … but only Christ fills.
Service Length: 63 minutes
Understandable Message: This week two students took on the message they had chosen – Nikki (I blogged a little bit about her last week already) and Bryce (the president of the school's FCA). Both of them were incredibly comfortable on stage and did a great job teaching about the hole inside all of us that students try to fill with so many different things. They were both honest about their past journey and struggles and really helped students understand their searching for what they hope fills them is a perilous and in the end, empty pursuit. They did a great job!
Element of Fun/Positive Environment: Great environment this weekend – the coffee cup became synonimous with the idea that Christ fills, so the room was decorated with lots of cups and coffee beans. They also had a funny video about Jesus pouring water on people, helping them realize they needed His filling. Lots of student greeters and energy.
Music Playlist: Cups [Anna Kendrick cover], Go, Our God, God Above All
Favorite Moment: The inflatable cougar mascot head filling up our whole entryway. Love it. Oh, and the high school principal came to youth group. So awesome!

OGDENSBURG It is a familiar phenomenon, part of the pulse of the city: the sun sets, the sky grows dim and streetlights blink on to illuminate the town like incandescent stars.
In Ogdensburg, however, many streetlights no longer shine, or flicker on and off, causing a public safety issue and an aesthetic concern.
Deputy Mayor Michael D. Morley noted broken streetlights during the weekend.
I noticed two of them traveling down Lafayette Street, he said.
City Manager John M. Pinkerton has heard the complaints, too.
We have citizens that are concerned about the streetlights going off, what have you, he said. I want to give them information about what they can do.
Mr. Pinkerton asks residents to notify either the city or National Grid when a broken streetlight is found.
It would help if they can tell whoever they call what is wrong with the light, he said. So they should note whether the light is out altogether, or if it is blinking that probably means the ballast has gone bad. If the light is on all day it means the sensor is not right.
Callers also should try to find the pole number of the streetlight, which is attached by metal plate or written directly on the pole, Mr. Pinkerton said.
Ogdensburg is responsible for only 50 of its streetlights; the rest are maintained by National Grid. Mr. Pinkerton said the city and the utility contact each other when an outage occurs, so it is appropriate to call either.
National Grid will send a crew through the city to look at all the lights, he said. We want residents to be proactive about reporting these, though.
National Grid can be reached at 800-642-4272 or at www1.nationalgridus.com/streetlight.
Residents calling Ogdensburg should dial the Department of Public Works at 393-2300 or report via the Internet at www.ogdensburg.org.

Saturday, April 14, 2012 - New Castle, DE
After dropping the opening game of a Central Atlantic Collegiate Conference doubleheader against Post on Senior Day, the four Wilmington University softball seniors came back and made game two memorable, led by Kinsley Parker's bases clearing double, to earn the split, 4-6 and 6-4, on Saturday at Asbury Field.
The seniors batted 4-for-10 with four RBI's and two runs scored in the second game, helping the Wildcats (21-20, 13-5 CACC) remain in fourth place in the CACC standings. Post (12-28, 10-12 CACC) came back to win game one by breaking a 3-3 tie with two runs in the fifth, remaining in the eighth and final playoff spot in the CACC standings with the split.
The Wildcats started out on the right foot in the first game, picking up three early runs on one swing of the bat. Brooke Berger singled through the left side with one out to start the rally. After Christin Headley walked to put runners on first and second, Jill Stafford sent a ball over the left center field fence for her fourth home run of the season, giving the Wildcats a 3-0 lead.
Post got a pair of the runs back right away, as Amy Mantha singled and Kim Bentson homered to right center to lead off the second to make it 3-2 after two innings.
The Eagles took the lead with an unearned run in the fourth and added two more unearned runs in the fifth to take a 5-3 lead heading into the bottom of the fifth.
The Wildcats cut it to 5-4 with a single run in the bottom half of the fifth, but could not inch any closer from there. Brooke Berger led off the inning with a single to left before Headley put two runners on with a walk. Now on second and third, Rachel Painter lofted a fly ball to left field, deep enough to score Berger from third for the sacrifice fly.
Post tacked on an insurance run in the top of the sixth inning, setting the score at 6-4 in favor of the visitors in the first game of the doubleheader.
Danielle Griffin was saddled with the loss, coming in from the bullpen in the top of the fifth. She threw three innings while giving up three runs (one earned) on five hits. She took over for Chelsea Botsch who tossed the first four innings, allowing three runs (two earned) on six hits. Botsch struck out four batters in the no decision.
Berger collected two hits in game one while Stafford and Amanda Crockett each added a hit apiece. Stafford (three) and Painter (one) knocked in the games runs.
Wilmington scored single runs in the first and second innings of game two, but it was a big, four-run third inning that carved the way for a split for the Wildcats.
Berger led off the third inning with her third triple of the season on the eight pitch of the at-bat. Headley followed with a single over the head of the shortstop for the innings for run. A Painter single and a walk by senior Kristin Garvin loaded the bases for fellow senior Parker with one out. Parker crushed the first pitch she saw towards left, just out of the reach of the left fielder and all the way to the wall, scoring all three runs. Parker distracted the relay, getting caught in a run-down in between second and third, allowing Garvin to race around from first.
The 6-1 lead was more than enough for game two starter Katie Warrington, who tossed her 12th complete game, going the distance while allowing four runs (three earned) on 10 hits. She struck out nine to improve to 12-7 on the season.
Warrington ran into trouble in the top of the seventh, looking for the split. After getting the first out of the inning, Post's Jackie Bonamassa singled and moved to second on a fielder's choice. With two runners on and one out, Stephanie DeMartino flared one to no man's land in short center field, but Shelby Thompson jumped on it quickly and threw it third to record the force out.
Now with two outs, Mantha singled back up the middle to score theteam's fourth run of the game, but Warrington got Bentson to fly out to Thompson in center with runners on first and third to end the game.
The Wildcats scored in the first inning on back-to-back two out doubles by Headley and Stafford to open the scoring. Senior Kristin Garvin doubled to lead off the second and scored on a single up the middle by classmate Crockett two batters later.
Headley, Painter and Crockett all collected two hits for the Wildcats in the second game while Berger, Stafford, Garvin and Parker added one hit apiece. Parker led all hitters with three RBI's in her final home game.
Today was the final home game for the Wildcats, as they will take to the road for their final four doubleheaders this week to end the season. They have a makeup at Caldwell on Monday, travel to Chestnut Hill on Tuesday and Georgian Court on Thursday. The final regular season series will be on Saturday at Nyack.

Review: Centennial 10 year Old Canadian Whisky
Posted by Arctic Wolf on May 8, 2012
Centennial is a 10 Year Old Whisky produced by Alberta's own Highwood Distillers. Rather than using corn to as the base grain for this whisky, Highwood uses soft Canadian winter wheat. This gives the Centennial a smooth and soft flavour profile unlike any other Canadian whisky I have encountered. In fact, using grains grown exclusively on the Canadian prairies, distilling the grain in their home Province of Alberta, and aging the spirit in the severe Western Canadian climate for a minimum of ten years, makes Centennial is a Whisky unlike any other in the world.
Here is an excerpt from my review (originally posted on December 8, 2009) :

Regions :: Western Europe Lenzing acquires remaining 25% of Czech pulp manufacturer8:29 AM MDT | October 3, 2012 | Sotirios Frantzanas Lenzing says it now owns 100% of pulp producer Biocel Paskov (Paskov, Czech Republic), after acquiring the 25% it did not own from Heinzel Group (Vienna). The company acquired a 75% stake in Biocel Paskov from the Heinzel Group in April 2010. Lenzing has invested about €100 million, since 2010, to restructure Biocel Paskov's facility, enabling it to become a "swing capacity" producer of pulp, the company says. Biocel Paskov will be able to produce paper and high-quality dissolving pulp by 2013, Lenzing... This information is only available to Chemical Week subscribers. Forgot your user ID or password?

This is a great thread - I still have tons to read! I was just wondering, though, if there have been any updates on Vanessa's condition? I still haven't seen D/W SD or FD but cannot wait!!!!!
This is a great thread - I still have tons to read! I was just wondering, though, if there have been any updates on Vanessa's condition? I still haven't seen D/W SD or FD but cannot wait!!!!!
Maybe she means Tessa??? There was a phone interview, aired on Canadian TV, AFAIR, where they said that it was a muscle strain unrelated to her surgery, and that she had had concerns about it before embarking for Taipei, but had hoped to be able to complete the competition but wasn't able to.
What scares me the most is the way Tessa is trying to downplay her injury / pain whatever. She seems to have not talk about it even to her coaches, most likely only to Scott, if that at all.
She tries to skate through them. I know what a fierce and determined young lady is hiding behind that angelic face of her, but she has to be more mature and responsible with her health.
Sometime (actually most of the time) you cannot fight biology and you will pay for trying it.
On another note, i have not posted much after their withdrawal, I was simply too distracted by the fact and lost in my thoughts. Beside the regret of not seeing the FD, which started with some fantastic opening (aside the bobble on the tiwzzle not related to the choreography which I was interested to see) then Weaver / Poje's inability to hold it together when the window was opened, was enough to send me mourning.
Ahh. Mourning is definitely appropriate under the circumstances.
Sorry, I of course did mean Tessa - shouldn't read this thread, try to work, answer the phone, and post all at once.
And I feel for all of the W/P fans!!
A tuff cookie like Tessa wouldnt stop if something was a BIT off. I think something popped and she knew she HAD to stop. She probably knows her body really well and knows what the really bad signs are. I wish her a speedy recovery.
ok.. so i've held off saying this... I love Tessa and Scott...and hope she is physically well... but has anyone actually thought that this was the plan all along... like maybe just go out and do the short...or maybe because of the errors early in the FD ... she thought I'd better bail now.... please don't yell... just asking everyones opinion....
.... 20 hour flight one-way w/ massive amounts of jet lag just to do the SD? Dealing with loss of training time, not getting a program out in a competitive setting? Unlikely, but stranger things have happened.
ya but the SD is the wildcard... the one u need the feedback on.................

It's impossible to say. If Tessa & Scott were strapped for cash, it would be crazy. But as far as I can tell they're not, and Igor had so many teams at 4CC's that the tariff for shipping, housing & feeding a coach would not be prohibitive.
However, IMO it would have been easier and cheaper to do a Senior B with Marina and Andreev & Khokhlova in Europe if all they wanted was international feedback on the SD. Likewise, the judging while perhaps a bit inflated would have been a better take on what European judges would give the program.
I think she had managed to skate through pain before and thought she could do it again. And couldn't, or found she didn't want to take the risk for 4CC's.
Except a Senior B competition will most likely consist of International Judges who don't have ISU Championships credential and therefore, will not be the ones at the World Championship. Their feedback will not be as practical as the ones from 4CC even though only one of the 9 judges was actually European (Russian).
I think that's the most likely explanation although I also get the impression that the injury is more serious than what they are telling us. It is never a good idea to tell the whole world you are injured because they might just end up perceiving everything you do as an injured athlete = subpar. It wouldn't surprise me they are downplaying her injury, whatever it is.I think she had managed to skate through pain before and thought she could do it again. And couldn't, or found she didn't want to take the risk for 4CC's.
Speaking cynically here, if they only wanted SD feedback they'd have withdrawn after the SD, citing the flu or some other circumstance. Bailing during the FD makes no sense as a strategy. It just reinforces the notion of an injury, which they would want to downplay, if anything.
I am not a cynic. They have soldiered on through difficult circumstances in the past, not acknowledging any problems. Now that the Olympics are over, though, Tessa may be more willing to acknowledge pain or stop because of it. I believe that Tessa experienced pain during the FD and felt unable to continue, or felt it unwise (in the sense of risking worse injury). I hope that this is truly a minor injury (not something worse).
Watching 4CC on TV, I was a bit taken aback to see D/W skating to a slow Puccini Waltz and then a grand Verdi Waltz. It seems they were saying, we can do what V/M do. It doesn't work for me. I prefer their dramatics and they should have brought a bit of sadness to the Puccini. The Verdi was fine but didn't overwhelm me.
Loved the Shibs and their Carousel Waltz.

Helpful Definition for: Auto Inspection Services
'Auto Inspection Services' is the process through which mainly used cars, when re-sold, are verified from everything that is possible to check and report oil pressure at startup and on the road, on cars fitted with an oil pressure gauge. In Jefferson City, during auto inspection, there can be check for 'blow-by' and cross contamination of fluids by removing the oil filler cap, radiator cap and dipstick. If there are internal issues with the engine they will likely be evident here if not on the test-drive in Jefferson City.
Also in Jefferson Cityauto inspection services include the condition of body and paint, dents, scratches, tires and wheels, glass, interior, missing parts, oil leaks, electrical items, and drive train performance. When possible, the vehicle may be test-driven to verify transmission and engine operation. The inspector will look over the interior and exterior of the vehicle for any obvious damage.

Shameful, disrespectful column
Its a shame when news reporters dont fully research an issue before writing articles about it. Its something much worse when those who run the news outlets use their positions to make statements that are hurtful, insulting and just plain false.
Fridays opinion piece by the editor of The Times Argus on the recent decision by the Montpelier City Council to replace a wireless antenna with a hard-wired alternative did little to contribute to a respectful, fact-based discussion about the impacts that wireless technology has on residents of our community, or the basis for their concerns.
If he had done more research, Mr. Pappas would have found that GMPs claim (and that of the Vermont Department of Health) that there is no scientific basis for a connection between wireless devices, whether they be smart meters or antennas, and health impacts is not true. There are thousands of peer-reviewed studies by qualified medical researchers making exactly the connections between wireless devices and health issues that the utilities and regulators are dismissing. There are many cases of people around the country suffering from the symptoms listed in Mr. Pappas piece which I wont repeat here to avoid being accused of creating some kind of mass hysteria.
In Europe, several countries recognize the harmful effects of exposure to elevated levels of wireless radiation. The Austrian Medical Association provides diagnosis and treatment guidelines to physicians, and in Sweden over 400,000 patients receive treatment. Doctors in these and other countries clearly see the biological responses to the radiation, and experts are reporting a rapid and dramatic increase in the number of cases. Meanwhile in the U.S. were left in the dark by poorly researched news stories.
The request made by residents of the Hebert Road neighborhood was not extreme or outrageous they were not asking for a revision of the citys overall policy on the use of wireless technology. They were suggesting that an affordable alternative existed that would reduce their exposure to something that medical researchers say is a health risk. In Europe, this application of what is known as the precautionary principle would be seen as prudent and reasonable. Apparently Mr. Pappas condescendingly sees this as tinfoil hat nonsense.
There is a real need for public discussion about the decisions our elected officials make and who they are responding to. But why Mr. Pappas feels the need to insult these residents, and misrepresent their position, is beyond me. Why he felt it was appropriate to use his position as the editor of the regions main news outlet to do so is something his readers should be asking.

Five Benefits of Growing Up With an Autistic Sibling
Dana Fialco collaborated with her sister Tara, who has autism, and their parents to create the "Starabella" three-book audio series. Visit her online at www.starabella.com.
Every sibling relationship is unique, but having an autistic child in a family can impact the entire family dynamic. While much attention is paid to the challenges and difficulties faced by parents and siblings of autistic children, growing up with an autistic sibling also offers many advantages and hidden treasures that can help shape an individual's life and character. Here are five benefits of growing up with an autistic sibling:
1. Perception. Having an autistic sibling means growing up alongside someone who sees the world in a unique, individual way – a way that is often different from the mainstream population. It also means living day-to-day with someone who behaves somewhat-to-very differently than the general population. The sibling without autism learns very early on that the world we live in is not black and white; there is not necessarily a right and wrong way to do all things. With solid parental guidance, siblings come to learn that individuality is not scary or wrong, but valued and beneficial to society. The neuro-typical siblings go into adult life with open minds and the ability to see the world from many views. Not only does this shape an individual with compassion, empathy, and acceptance of differences, but it also inspires innovation and creativity. The siblings can become real thinkers who see beyond face value, as well as diplomats who can navigate and reconcile conflicting points of view.
2. Perspective. Growing up with an autistic sibling means watching your sibling face each day with more courage and strength than most of us can fathom. Whether facing ridicule and cruelty from others or simply trying to get by in a world that was not built to accommodate their needs and way of thinking, kids with autism experience constant challenges. It's difficult to witness this on a daily basis and not grow up with great perspective about what actually constitutes a problem. Granted, a pitfall of some siblings is to decide that their own real problems or feelings do not warrant attention or concern. However, with maturity and proper guidance from caring adults, the siblings can grow into adults who can balance experiencing their feelings with not overreacting to trivialities or falling prey to self-pity. This perspective allows them to remain calm during difficult situations, and to be thoughtful rather than reactionary.
3. Leadership. Siblings of autistic children often have to mature very early – arguably, earlier than should be required. By necessity, siblings often must assist their parents in helping, providing care, and teaching. These households can be chaotic, and siblings must develop a real inner strength to deal with the chaos, emotions, and frequent uncertainty. In families, siblings often collaborate – working on projects, carrying out chores, or playing together. Siblings often see each other's capabilities and way of thinking from a different perspective than their parents or teachers. Whether older or younger, the non-autistic siblings naturally gravitate to leadership roles in the sibling relationship. They learn to stand up for their sibling to others, and advocate for their sibling's potential to be seen and met with proper challenges for growth and success. Whereas this can present difficulty for some, in the end, it shapes strong adults with tremendous potential for leadership. They can grow into leaders who are comfortable navigating uncertainty and still delivering results; they become comfortable leading and motivating others, and they learn to see and foster the potential in those they lead. They see differences in working styles and ways of thinking as welcome attributes rather than frightening, difficult to manage, or unacceptable. The siblings become strong, compassionate leaders who are natural innovators, protectors, and advocates.
4. Courage. By necessity, growing up with an autistic sibling teaches a child to have the courage to stand out. Venturing into society with someone who does not necessarily conform or can have unfiltered reactions means there will be moments when the entire family stands out, whether they like it or not. For children and teenagers this can sometimes cause embarrassment. However, it is an important part of their development that will yield rewards their entire lives. It helps the siblings learn to be themselves and express their ideas, and not be swayed by the crowd. It helps them see public perception for what it is, and to know when to take or leave an outside judgment or opinion. A lifetime of developing strength and compassion provides the courage and pride to face the world head-on.
5. Creativity. Many of the other listed benefits have underlying tones of creativity, or produce creativity as a byproduct of the other attributes achieved. Siblings often have a unique way of communicating – sometimes even developing a shorthand or symbiotic relationship. Learning to communicate effectively with an autistic sibling takes a great deal of creativity. Autism manifests differently in each person, and there is a broad spectrum. However, communication and social awareness are almost always affected in some way. Siblings grow up learning how to organically communicate, reach, and connect with their sibling. Because those with autism often have unique and varied ways of thinking and seeing the world, their neuro-typical siblings often benefit from a very creative point of view. Simply being so intimately engaged with a person lacking the tools to benefit from a very creative point of view. Simply being so intimately engaged with a person lacking the tools to temper individuality through conformity stretches the mind and creativity of a sibling. Many people with autism also have some extraordinary abilities. Not all are creative, but some do have creative talent, be it visual arts, music, writing, or simply expressing a worldview that is unique and insightful. An added benefit to creativity is when a sibling grows up in a house filled with this art. Even a non-creative interest exposes the siblings to aspects of the world that they would not normally delve into, and can feed creativity. If the siblings happens to share a creative interest, both or all the siblings' creativity and awareness grows together. Some siblings even apply their creativity to solving scientific and sociological puzzles, including the puzzle of autism.
Of course, all family dynamics and ways of growing up present their own challenges as well as benefits. Siblings of autistic children naturally develop the tools to see the challenges thrown their way in life for the gifts they can be. They develop the strength and creativity to use those gifts towards compassionate, collaborative, individualized success.

Is is because of world tolerance to diversity that some people succeed, and others fail in their lives. This is not only exclusive to the autism population, but applicable to all people of the world.

I don't know whether I should like your comment seeing as that you promote "Autistics Aware". I grew up with an autistic brother and that was before knowledge of what Autism was and it was extremely difficult and different in the sense that it is now getting recognition.
Shira S.March 2, 2012 at 4:21 pm
I completely agree with all of the articles from this blog. I have an autistic little brother and it's definitely changed me. I've had to grow up faster, get less than average attention from my parents, and learn to become more independent and how to help my sibling. It has helped in a lot of ways though because I've been more educated about autism and when I see other people with special needs I do my best to help them. For example, I had to stand up to a bunch of kids who were picking on this one kid who didn't realize he was being humiliated. Even though he didn't know what was going on, it still made me feel good.

text: General Use:Acrylic plastic glasses and dishes are break-resistant. Acrylic is a good alternative to glass for outdoor use since it won't shatter dangerously like glass drinkware or ceramic tableware.Dishwasher use:Hand washing is recommended for acrylic plastic drinking glasses and dishes to retain their luster and beauty. Acrylic tableware can be washed in the dishwasher, but it will eventually cloud and possibly craze (show fine lines) due to the heat of the dishwasher. Microwave use: Acrylic drinkware and dishes are not recommended for microwave use.Scratching and Wear: Acrylic plates are not scratch-proof. Acrylic plastic dishes are not recommended for heavy use with knives. Melamine Plastic Dishes are ideal for heavy use with knives - see our Plastic Tableware section for several durable Melamine styles.

Will, I'm curious-- have you ever read "The Right Nation" by Micklethwait (yes, that one) and Wooldridge (yes, that one)? Their prediction, oddly, is the opposite of that predicting Democratic hegemony. I don't know who's right-- though I've long thought the political-market idea is solid-- but it does seem to me that one major equilibrizing force, if true, is the proposition that liberal redistributive powers derive directly from the vigor and resulting wealth of capitalism. The more redistributive and restrictive they get, the more they do evoke opposition, yes, but also the more the country loses the wealth for them to redistribute. If so, Margaret Thatcher's revolution in Britain was inevitable.
And, too, redistribution suffers from a basic fairness problem. True, sometimes unjust things are done by rich people for profit, but they're not the only ones punished with high taxes, nor are their victims the only ones benefitted. That's efficient, but can that be justice? I think most wealth is legitimately won, so it's also unjust to steal wealth from the rich and give it to people who neither by their work, thrift or intelligence earned it.
The way the Left has always overcome this argument about injustice is by arguing that it's making up for other injustices. Just as with affirmative action, that's wearing thin. Robber-baron ideals of capitalism during the late 19th century suffered an erosion that was glacial in pace but so powerful in effect, caused by too many hosannas to it and too many abuses, that it didn't burn out for many decades, and still hasn't entirely. I think that same kind of erosion, though perhaps not comparable in scale, is occurring with the "progressive narrative."
Really, the problem is that in a rationalist democracy the immediate and more provable is what is politically profitable, leaving longer-term but more powerful poverty-fighting things so attenuated from political profit as financial education and community-building out of the realm of serious civic action.

An adjective to describe something or something that is both cheesy and tacky. Initially born at a window shopping trip in downtown Boulder, CO (where the fashion is questionable to say the least). I had to react to a hideous outfit and couldn't decide whether it was cheesy or tacky, and "chacky" just spilled from my lips.
Mavis, look at that girl's outfit. It's totally chacky.
Josh, breaking up with a girl over text is chacky.
