Polar Pipe
While frigid temperatures kept most of North America indoors last week, some East Coast surfers brought out their thickest wetsuits to ride some polar vortex swell.
Its one thing to surf your homebreak when its cold. But its something else entirely to leave a place thats 12 degrees to surf a place where the temp is hovering around zero. Balaram Stacks journey from Long Island to Cape Cod was totally worth it.

Purchase any of the hundreds of chambered guitar bodies from our In Stock selection and try it out for 30 days. Bolt it on, string it up and give it a test run – play it to believe it. If you don't love it, return for a full refund of the purchase price (see terms and conditions here).
Chambered Advantages:
Warmoth has been creating chambered bodies for over 15 years and now, many high end guitar creators are starting to offer chambered bodies as well. Our uniquely engineered cavities allow the body to remain very stiff while affording a minimum 25% weight reduction! These bodies are very resonant; they feel "alive" when plucked. Sustain is improved over their solid body counterparts and feedback is not an issue since the chambers are small. Tone wise, Alder, Ash, and Mahogany each maintain their traditional wood/tone coloration but notes are more open, full, fat, and chunky sounding.
If you are not completely satisfied with your Warmoth chambered guitar or bass body, you may return it within 30 days of receipt for a full refund (shipping costs will not be refunded). The body must be in sellable condition. Modifications to the body outside of general setup (such as: relicing, non-Warmoth finishes, non-Warmoth routing, etc.) will nullify this guarantee. Other terms & conditions apply:

A wounded blast victim is wheeled in a hospital near Domodedovo airport in Moscow after a bomb attack blamed on Chechen militants. / Alexander Zemlianichenko, AP
MOSCOW - The journey that led two brothers to bomb the Boston Marathon has its roots in the strife-ridden violent Muslim region of Russia known as the North Caucasus, where jihadists have been trying to take over for years, an expert says.
"Although the two suspects may not have lived in Chechnya, they are likely to have socialized with Chechens, both in the United States and online," said Oliver Bullough, an author and North Caucasus expert.
Police cornered and captured Dzhokhar Tsarnaev, in suburban Watertown, Mass. Friday night and took him into custody. Dzhokhar, 19, is the younger of the two ethnic Chechen men who moved to Massachusetts with their family, appears to have attended school up until 2001 in Dagestan, a southern Russian republic that sees almost daily attacks by Islamist militants against police, security officials and moderate Muslim clerics.
A page on Russia's Vkontakte social-networking site belonging to a person of the same name and similar appearance as Dzhokhar lists his worldview as "Islam" and his priorities as "career and money."
His brother, Tamerlan, 26, killed on Friday in a gunbattle with police, also seems to have been a keen Internet user: A YouTube account bearing his name features links to extremist Islamist videos by anti-U.S. clerics.
Although it is yet unclear how much time, if any, the two men spent in Chechnya, which neighbors Dagestan, ties among Chechen diasporas are traditionally strong.
The homeland of the brothers was ravaged by two especially brutal wars in the 1990s and 2000s, when Russian forces bombarded the republic and rampaged through its cities and towns.
The Kremlin's fierce anti-insurgency campaign in Chechnya and, later, Dagestan produced a new generation of Islamist radicals, loosely bound by a separatist organization known as the Caucasus Emirate, who adopted terrorism as their primary weapon.
As the movement drew younger members disillusioned from years of Russian military onslaught and occupation, suicide bombings, previously restricted largely to the Middle East, became commonplace in Russia.
In 2002, Chechen fighters, armed with explosive vests, seized a Moscow theater in a hostage standoff that resulted in nearly 130 civilian deaths. Two years later, Muslim insurgents besieged a school in the republic of North Ossetia, killing 331 hostages, many of them children.
More recently, even Moscow has been home to terror attacks. In March 2010, 40 people were killed when two suicide bombers from Dagestan detonated explosives on the subway. Less than a year later, a suicide bomber killed 37 people at the capital's Domodedovo airport.
But while the Tsarnaev brothers remained far from the Islamist violence that plagues the North Caucasus, signs of religious adherence - and to the Chechen cause - abound. On his VKontakte page, Dzhokhar also posted links to Islamist websites, and belongs to several groups devoted to Chechnya and Chechens.
Bullough suggested that the two men may have been infected by an all-consuming anger over their people's often brutal treatment at the hands of Russian forces.
"The Chechens are one of the most unfortunate peoples on the planet," he said. "And they have a lot to be angry about."
It was this fury, Bullough said, that may have caused the two young men to lash out at America, though the United States has condemned the violence in Chechnya and is not ally of Russia, the principal oppressor of the republic.
"If you are looking for a cause, you will find one," he said.
Many Chechens are reported to have found such a "cause" in Syria, where Muslim fighters from the Caucasus are known to be present in a jihadist fight.
"Everybody knows about the Chechens fighting in Syria; they're part of the foreign fighters," Sami Shaar, a Syrian rebel currently based in Turkey, told USA TODAY.
But, Chechnya, especially its capital, Grozny, has witnessed a period of relative calm in recent years, ever since President Vladimir Putin appointed a former separatist fighter, Ramzan Kadyrov, to rule the republic.
Kadyrov has frequently been accused of human rights abuses at home, and of ordering the killing of his enemies abroad, including in Europe. He denies the charges.
Kadyrov was reported last week to have been placed on the secret part of a list drawn up by Washington of Russian officials subject to sanctions over suspected human rights abuses. The Chechen leader laughed off the reports and said he had no plans to visit the United States. He also lashed out sharply at the White House's foreign policies.
But Kadyrov angrily dismissed any connection between Chechnya and the Boston attacks.
"They grew up in the United States, their views and convictions were formed there. That's where you need to look for the root of the evil," he said on Friday.

All the measurements I was able to do in the short time were glxgears and fgl_glxgears .... (stand-alone & running them simultaneously)
Based upon that, I would guesstimate the 3850 AGP to have been about 1.5x to 2.5x faster than my 2600XT AGP (both with 512 MB GDDR3 memory on-board).
Side-note: my 2600XT AGP is the H.I.S. IceQ Turbo overclocked edition (so overclocked in hardware, e.g. even in Linux, rather than via the Windows driver)
so performance gains coming from a "normal" 2600XT or Pro may be slightly bigger.
I use mostly Windows XP for gaming and therefore graphical benchmarking (The few Linux OpenGL apps/games I mentioned are what I can use / play when my PC is booted into Linux doing other stuff in the background which is the common situation most of the time)
Unfortunately Windows Service Pack 3 broke my XP install (no, I do not have the AMD + Intel power management driver issue, it's much worse)
so I couldn't benchmark for want of having to re-install XP.
All in good time, assuming I get a working 3850 AGP back rather than my money ....

What do you think of the
Giordana Nordic AV Shoe Covers
? Share a...
Great shoe cover.
- Familiarity: I've used it once or twice and have initial impressions
While the zip can make custom fit a little more tricky the size chart is true to size and they fit well. Warm enough for a colder day (think low 40's) but when it comes to freezing cold winter rides I switch to a warmer cover.
solomon brumbaugh
Toasty and dry
- Familiarity: I've used it several times
- Fit: True to size
I wore these on a cold windy day this winter (just above freezing) and they kept my toes warm and dry! Not too hard to put on and take off.
Cubby Hotep
Nordic? Not likely....
Giordana makes high quality cycling gear, and sizing was spot on for my cycling shoes, however the labeling of "Nordic" seemed to give this product much more credit that it deserves. These were really ONLY shoe covers, and really lacked sufficient insulation for anything that might be considered adverse or inclement weather.
Additionally, I am not a fan of zippers in the back of cycling booties as nine times outta 10 the zipper blows out and doesn't last longer than a single season.
My experience is completely different regarding zippers. I'm on the site shopping for new shoe covers b/c my Descente shoe covers from the year 2000 have finally become so worn that the toe part flips up over my foot. A true YKK zipper and plenty of reinforcement on heel and toes has ensured this longevity.
Mike Haines
Breathable, not overheating
I have worn these with both mountain and road bike setups with good results. The Nordic AV is breathable and wind stopping, but not heavily insulated. I've still experienced chilly toes during rides around freezing (that said, my toes are always the first part of my body to get cold, regardless of footwear.) The cleat cutout is a generous size, and I was surprised how well it fit over my cleated mountain bike shoes, and even stood up well to hiking through some of the steep stuff.
I consider this shoe cover ideal for temps in the 35-50 degree range. At colder temps it might stave off frostbite, but there are warmer booties out there. But for a shoe cover you won't find yourself tearing off as soon as the sun crests the ridgeline, this would be a great choice.

RATINGS: 380 WEIGHTED AVG: 3.39 SEASONAL: Special EST. CALORIES: 1230 ABV: 41%
COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION Sink the Bismarck! is beer, amplified. With the volume turned full up, it is important you that you be careful with this beer and show it the same amount of sceptical, tentative respect you would show an international chess superstar, clown or gypsy. Sink the Bismarck is a quadruple IPA that contains four times the hops, four times the bitterness and frozen four times to create at a staggering 41% ABV. This is IPA amplified, the most evocative style of the craft beer resistance with the volume cranked off the scale. Kettle hopped, dry hopped then freeze hopped for a deep fruit, resinous and spicy aroma. A full out attack on your taste-buds ensues as the incredibly smooth liquid delivers a crescendo of malt, sweet honey, hop oils and a torpedo of hop bitterness which lasts and lasts.

HEY JIM HOOD … and all you other losers — quit robocalling my house!!!
My 7-year-old daughter is sitting in my lap last night while my wife and 6-year-old son were cuddled up on the couch as we watched, the recently released-at-home movie "Hugo".
Then, I hear our home phone ringing on the other side of the house.
So, I make my daughter scoot over. I get up, wander through the kitchen and through the living room, looking for the ringing phone, hoping it doesn't wake up the 2-year-old.
I finally find it, but it was too late.
"Damn telemarketers!" I think as I look at the 800 number on the Caller-ID screen. I grab the phone and carry it back with me to the TV room, where my daughter had abandoned me for the comfy confines of the couch with her mom and brother.
About 15 minutes later, it rings again.
"DAD!" everyone yells.
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry," I whisper, walking into the kitchen to answer the phone.
No, it wasn't a telemarketer. It was a robocall from Attorney General Jim Hood. The recorded voice was saying something about how he was mad at the legislature — like I didn't already know that.
This was a total waste of my time.
I started to call the A.G.'s office this morning and ask him what was so important that he had to call during my family time — which I don't get nearly enough of — and then not even have the courtesy of actually being on the other end of the phone.
It's not just Jim Hood. Anybody running for office likes to interrupt your life without having to interrupt theirs.
I'm not so naive not to realize that robocalls are an effective way for politicians to communicate their one-way, trumped-up message.
Yet, robocalls are rude and intrusive and interrupt my time with my family.
So, Jim, the next time you have something to say, take out an ad in the newspaper. I am much more likely to see it there.

Badly designed. Can damage your frame. Can be easily knocked over. Eventually sags to obscure front view making it hard to see overhead branches.

This shade has been a great help in keeping me cooler and no more sun burn. It was easy to put together and put on my mower. A very good and necessary purchase.

I was looking forward to using this sun shade on our new garden tractor. But we returned it because once attached to the tractor, we could not drive the tractor into our garage without hitting the sun shade. Perhaps they can make the shade so it sits lower on the tractor. I wish it would have worked for us.

....your yard is as smooth as a billiard table. Basically, this thing needs some support for the front of the framework. If your yard is at all bumpy , it flops, bounces and twists around continuously. Because it's supported by the metal bodywork behind the seat, it's only a matter of time before the tractor body starts to crack from all the flexing. Other reviewers have also noted issues with overhanging branches, but I don't view this as a problem with the canopy. Just be aware that you will have trim up any trees you want to get close to. Not sure yet if I want to engineer my own front supports , or just return the thing. It's a good idea, but poorly executed.

I have been looking for one of these for years and finally found one at the Sears Outlet for a great price. It was easy to put together except for when I got to the next to last step which was placing the cross bows in the overhead section. I soon discovered why it was on sale at a very low price. The holes for the crows bows was missing on one side. Therefore, I had to drill 3 holes on the left side for the bows to fit in. No big deal but somebody in China forgot to drill the holes for the other side. I thought it funny that QA missed this major defect.

"Similar to our wedding invitations and programs, the menu card was a great addition to our suite of paper products used for the wedding. It was a nice size for our place setting and of high quality. We had modest design requests which were implemented quickly. Bonus, we received these a day earlier than expected!"
"Feeling so satisfied with the menu (and we haven't even eaten yet) because of these amazing menu cards! WPD has not let me down throughout my entire wedding planning process. I am truly amazed at the excellent customer service and personal touch added to each item I have ordered so far. It's such a pleasure to know exactly where to turn to for perfect wedding stationary each and every step of the way. These menu cards are of great quality and sophistication. I especially love the size! They are not long and skinny, but rather just wide enough to fit nicely at the dinner table. Can't wait for dinner to be served with these cards as the perfect complement!"
"The fall branch menu coordinated with our invitations, placecards, thanks yous etc and provided a nice decorative and informative touch at our reception. We used the majestic and charcoal colors to coordinate with our fall wedding color scheme. Very lovely!"
"The design was beautiful.. Have received many compliments. The paper quality was excellent as we did opt for the upgraded paper. The customer service was wonderful.. They were very patient and very helpful. The turn around time was incredible. We received the finish product very quickly. Would highly recommend your company."
"I used this design to make a long "thank you for coming" note on each guest's plate instead of a menu, it turned out beautifully and Wedding Paper Divas made it so easy to customize what I wanted."

Wily, effective veterans step into spotlight at AT&T
With combined age of 79, Colon and Hudson among game's best
They are a combined 79 years of age, yet they remain two of the best pitchers in baseball, and on Saturday they will meet under the lights at AT&T Park.
Bartolo Colon and Tim Hudson will start for the Mets and Giants, respectively, pitting two of the game's oldest and most effective starting pitchers against each other.
Colon and Hudson go about their work in different ways, with Colon incorporating a slider into his otherwise fastball-heavy arsenal and Hudson relying, as always, on his nasty sinker. But they both see results.
Colon, 41, has rebounded from a rough beginning to the season to post a 1.61 ERA over his last three starts, striking out 19 and walking five in 22 1/3 innings. He knows the Bay Area well, having spent the 2012-13 campaigns in Oakland before signing a two-year, $20 million contract with the Mets this winter.
Perhaps that familiarity will help Colon, who has a 2.30 ERA at home this season but a 5.89 mark on the road.
"I just feel good when I'm at home," Colon said. "Now I've just got to get ready to pitch well on the road as well."
Hudson, 38, broke into the big leagues in 1999, two years after Colon. He has a 17-10 record and 3.49 ERA in 30 career starts against New York, winning more games against the Mets than anyone else thanks to his nine seasons in Atlanta.
This year he has been as brilliant as ever, winning six of his first eight decisions with a league-leading 1.75 ERA in 11 starts.
Ask him to explain his success -- aside from his age, he's coming off a serious injury to his right ankle, sustained while covering first base against the Mets last July 24 -- and he'll probably react modestly.
"Smoke and mirrors," Hudson has said.
But his effectiveness against the Mets is more than that.
Twenty-one of Hudson's 30 career appearances against New York were quality starts. He pitched 14 innings against the Mets in 2005 before ever allowing a run, and beat them four times in five starts before they handed him a loss. More than just ancient history is on Hudson's side, too; he has yielded three earned runs or fewer in seven of his previous nine outings against New York.
Hudson has sustained his career-long excellence since joining the Giants in what may become one of last offseason's best free-agent acquisitions. San Francisco is 8-2 in games started by Hudson, who has struck out 50 while walking just eight. And according to STATS LLC, he's the third pitcher to record a sub-2.00 ERA in his first 11 starts for the Giants since the franchise moved to San Francisco in 1958. The others were Mike Caldwell in 1974 (1.93 ERA) and Ryan Vogelsong in 2011 (1.99).
"He works quick, he keeps the ball down, changes speed so well," Giants catcher Buster Posey said. "You feel really good every time he's out there."
Mets: Gee sets out on the road to recovery
Starting pitcher Dillon Gee, who has been on the disabled list since May 10 with an injury that was originally supposed to cost him only two starts, began throwing off flat ground earlier this week in Florida. He had not attempted to throw since the final week of May, when he aggravated his strained right lat.
The Mets have not set a timetable for Gee, who is still weeks from a return -- but at least this is a start. Gee will need to throw multiple times off a mound before the Mets clear him to pitch in Minor League rehab games, and he must appear in more than one of those before ultimately returning to the Majors.
The Mets can afford to have Gee take his time, however, because their starting pitching has only taken a small hit in his absence. Rookie Jacob deGrom has developed into a bona fide rotation member, and Zack Wheeler has blossomed before Collins' eyes.
"I've been very happy," Collins said of his rotation. "I'm very pleased with the way they've all gone about it. All of them, I think, they compete against each other a little bit. For sure, they have stepped up."
Giants: Huff down, but not necessarily out
The Giants dropped left-hander David Huff from their pitching staff on Friday with the hope that his absence will be only temporary. The team designated Huff for assignment to clear room on the roster for right-hander Matt Cain, who started the series opener against the Mets.
The move left San Francisco with a 12-man pitching staff and a five-man bench, giving manager Bruce Bochy the type of personnel flexibility that he hasn't always enjoyed this season. Had the Giants retained Huff, they almost certainly would have optioned outfielder Juan Perez back to Triple-A Fresno, which would have forced Bochy to operate with an undermanned bench. The right-handed-hitting Perez started in left field on Friday against Mets lefty Jon Niese.
Nevertheless, Bochy expressed hope that Huff will clear waivers, which will enable the Giants to re-sign him. In that event, Bochy said, Huff likely would join Fresno's rotation.
Worth noting
• X-Rays and a CT scan came back negative on the left, non-throwing shoulder of Mets top prospect Noah Syndergaard after Syndergaard injured the joint on a play at the plate in the first inning Thursday game at Triple-A Las Vegas. Doctors diagnosed Syndergaard with a sprained A/C joint in the shoulder, recommending that he refrain from throwing for five to seven days.
• Mets outfielder Eric Young suffered a setback this week while rehabbing from his strained right hamstring in Florida, and he will not come off the DL on Tuesday when eligible.
• Cain took a no-hitter into the sixth inning on Friday before settling for a no-decision.

What is the meaning of life, and link building?
It's been an eventful Spring and Summer. In April my father David Ward passed away, in a miserable sort of slow-motion way, and on his birthday of course. Dad had a great life, considering it ended -and started- terribly. (that's him below on an airplane somewhere over America, circa 1960)
Dad was from Duluth MN, and had polio as a child. He finished high school from his hospital bed, then found the means to flee the frigid Duluthian tundra and make his way to college at the somewhat less fridgid Northwestern, where he was determined to make something of himself. He did so. In fact, my Dad's marketing savvy for Shulton in the '60s and '70s is one reason Old Spice is a National Brand today. He didn't get rich, because back then you didn't get rich by being a loyal company man, but he was good at what he did, worked hard at it, took nothing for granted, and probably deserved better than he got.
(SIDE NOTE: When I was 15, we moved from New Jersey to Tennessee, and I was not happy about it. Dad was smart enough and gentle enough to wisely convince his skeptical and snotty son (me) to go to high-school here, which cost Dad a fortune, instead of where I wanted to go, which would have cost him nothing. He was generous even when I didn't deserve it)
After Dad's death, and after putting up a brave face for several weeks, my Mom was admitted to the hospital . She ended up staying in the hospital for over a month, which necessitated several additional trips out and back to Phoenix. Each of these trips have the unintended consequence of causing my older brother and hero Steve or I to stop work quickly and mobilize for travel cross country. During these times I can lose touch with clients, they can get (rightfully) annoyed , and I can end up making the whole world mad, losing money in the form of client refunds along the way. I have a 6 year old (Noah) and a 1 year old (Abram) at home that I also have to say goodbye to for these trips, and that's no fun for me, or my wife.
As a mid-Summer-bad-news-palate cleanser, in early July our 3 year old golden retriever Izzy was killed by a reckless moron driving way too fast for the road in front of our house. Izzy had gotten out of the backyard, ran into the road, was hit, limped home, and collapsed. Dead. The rest is just too sad to write about. She was the most gentle animal I've ever met.
You know what's more fun than a barrel-o-monkeys? Explaining to your son that his dog is dead. After the initial shock and tears, the conversation goes something like this:
NOAH: "Daddy, when I die will I get to see Izzy and Grampa again in heaven?"
DAD: (to himself) "There is no god Noah, because if there was a god none of these things would happen and Al Gore would have been our President.
DAD: (out loud) "Yes Noah, we will all be together again one day in heaven and it will be awesome, and we know this because that's what they teach us in Sunday School, right buddy?"
NOAH: "Right Dad!"
If there has been one positive thing to happen this Summer, it was my wife Melissa urging us to give the boys (and ourselves) a Summer so good they'd have a chance to forget the bad. So off and on we've spent most of the Summer in a house a couple blocks from the beach next to Seaside Florida. People like to make fun of this area, but they don't get it. It is a wonderful place, and I get to watch my son thrive in this not-of-this-world idyllic bubble, just as Truman Burbank did, only for me it's by choice, and I get to play with Noah doing things like skim boarding, surfing, trail mountain biking, hanging at the ocean, and just trying to provide a sense of normalcy during a time that is anything but.
I'll wrap this up with a note aimed at anyone who has been trying to do business with me over the past 4 months. I'm here and working, just not as much as you'd like. Parents come first, wife and kids come second, myself third, and you, patiently waiting client, come fourth. It has to be that way, for now.
I'm working a few hours each day, as well as late in the evening when the kids are asleep. In mid-August, when school starts and we're back in Knoxville full-time, I will be back providing link building services, strategy, and training, working longer hours, as usual. I have to. I'm going to buy that place at the beach and semi-retire by gosh, and you, my new and existing clients, are what will make that possible.
Thank you for your time and patience.

Students in the School of Global Business are strongly encouraged to build study abroad into their educational experiences. Since most required business courses are offered in Fall and Spring semesters, study abroad is all about planning. You can schedule study abroad in any semester, except spring of the senior year, which is when the Capstone course is taken. It is possible to schedule multiple consecutive or non-consecutive semesters abroad and still graduate on time. It is also possible to do an internship abroad in the Fall, Spring or Summer. If you are unable to do a long-term study abroad, there are numerous one-week study opportunities that can be done in any semester. With prior approval, courses taken at foreign universities can be transferred to Arcadia to fulfill Undergraduate Curriculum, including major, requirements. Since it is important that students plan ahead for study abroad, they should consult with their advisers as early as possible to make their intentions known to the School of Global Business and the Office of International Affairs.

Cheerin' on up to the big timeDiane Baker photo
Left, Mill River Union High School varsity cheerleaders Leslie Hixon, Anna Baker, Tara Conover and Gage Greeno, back, were chosen to participate in the Macys Thanksgiving Day Parade in New York.CLARENDON Its not just shouts and tumbling anymore.
Five Mill River Union High School cheerleaders four girls and one boy have advanced the school sport to the forefront, appearing in two Thanksgiving Day parades last week.
Varsity cheerleaders Leslie Hixon, Anna Baker, Tara Conover and Gage Greeno appeared in the Macys Thanksgiving Day Parade in New York City, while freshman Shania Perham was in Philadelphias parade.
Less than a week after appearing in two of the biggest national holiday celebrations, the student athletes said during practice Monday they wanted cheerleading to be recognized by everyone as a sport.
Greeno, a lineman for the North Clarendon schools football team, jokingly said he joined the cheering squad for the girls. But then, turning serious, he said his friends asked him to do it and be their backspot the strong foundation in the back of a stunt that makes sure the flyers (girls sprung into the air) dont land on their heads or necks.
It is a crucial position Greeno plays.
Standing 6 foot 3 and weighing 225 pounds, he wants to pursue the sport in college, over football.
According to coach Jen Martin, Hofstra University, a Division I school, is in contact with Greeno, possibly to make him a member of its cheering squad in the future.
Cheerleading, according to the students, has an undeserved stigma.
It requires long practices to develop strength, tumbling skills, flexibility, stunt skills and good attitudes.
All five athletes were chosen to participate in the parades at a Universal Cheerleading Association camp in New York over the summer by recruiters from Spirit of America Productions, according to Anna Bakers mother, Diane Baker.
During their trip, the students embraced the sights and sounds of the city, visiting the Empire State Building and seeing The Rockettes at Radio City Music Hall.
The five local students not only gained new friends, but the experience also allowed them to step up their skill level and teach the rest of the squad, Martin said.
It also gives them an idea of what they want to implement when they get back home, she said.
While the five students said they are aiming for a competitive win for Mill River this cheering season, their coach strives for something different.
I want them to leave the mat knowing it was the best performance they could do, Martin said.MORE IN Vermont NewsMONTPELIER Vermont is a step closer toward meeting the goal of ensuring that everyone in the...

Tell Congress to Pass the Combating Autism Reauthorization Act
Ursitti is the director of State Government Affairs at Autism Speaks and is the mother of two children, 8-year-old Jack and 11-year-old Amy. She lives just outside of Boston and has been involved in autism advocacy since Jack's autism diagnosis 6 years ago. She writes a personal blog called Autismville.
"I'm not giving up on this kid, and you're not either."
Dr. B peered over the medical chart, looking me squarely in the eye. I, of course, was not ready to give up. Couldn't ever imagine giving up.
But to hear her remind me that she wasn't either? Well, when you're the mom of a kid who's been labeled non-verbal, non-responsive, extremely-challenged, severe—all words that pretty much equate to hopelessness—the commitment of someone, anyone other than you…it resonates.
My son Jack has been seeing Dr. B for four years now. Yes, he is incredibly challenged by autism but first and foremost, he's a great kid. Dr. B realizes that and has done everything within her power to make sure that he reaches his full potential, that his medical needs are met, and that he feels good, even though it's hard for him to tell us.
She runs one of the 17 Autism Treatment Network (ATN) sites where people like my Jack, who have been diagnosed with an autism spectrum disorder, go for highly coordinated medical care. It's worth noting that ATNs are partially funded by the Health Resources and Services Administration (HRSA). Your help is needed in order to ensure that the 17 ATNs dotted across the country have the ability to keep supporting and believing in beautiful people like Jack.
Five years ago, the Combating Autism Act (CAA) was passed by Congress. Millions of dollars were authorized to fund autism research, diagnosis and treatment. The HRSA ATN funding I mentioned earlier is one shining example of how CAA funds have been invested.
Unfortunately, on September 30th, the provisions of the Combating Autism Act will sunset. Because of this, the Combating Autism Reauthorization Act (CARA) was filed earlier this year. CARA simply extends the work of the Combating Autism Act for three more years. As desperately as it is needed, advocates recognize the challenging times the country is facing, and are not asking for additional funding.
The good news is that CARA has bi-partisan support in both the U.S. Senate and House of Representatives. The bad news is that the clock is ticking. The September 30th deadline looms. The Congressional agenda is very full. We literally need an Act of Congress and we need it before the end of this month.
That said, slowly but surely, things are moving. Due in great part to a huge grassroots push last week, House Majority Leader Eric Cantor posted the bill for an expedited vote before the U.S. House of Representatives where it pased yesterday by voice vote. Things are less certain in the Senate, where the CARA legislation passed unanimously out of the Senate HELP committee in early September, but has yet to be taken up on the floor.
It is not an exaggeration to say that every day until Septermber 30 will be critical. Congress is focused on many consuming issues and it is up to us to make sure that they don't leave families and providers who walk in the word of autism a step behind.
In the spirit of Dr. B, I'm not giving up. I'm asking that you not give up either.

I have sent my e-mail. Thank you Ursitta for your hard work and advocacy. Your post was both powerful and beautiful. I thank you.
September 21, 2011 at 2:24 pm
You are absolutely right, Judith! Everyone needs to contact their Senator, especially those folks represented by DeMint (R-SC) and Coburn (R-OK) who oppose this law. Condition specific legislation is always very difficult (every interest group wants their own bill so lawmakers avoid them). In the case of autism, it's absolutely necessary because autism research was either non-existent or lagged way behind for so many years so our community needs the push that specific legislation gives to research efforts.
I do find it more than a bit troubling that a sole IACC appointee (Ari Ne'eman, a Public Member) opposes CARA. If CARA doesn't pass, the IACC goes out of business and along with it his appointment. What's up with that?
September 21, 2011 at 9:50 pm
I called my Senator and sent emails. I hope CARA is reauthorized.

The name "Turn 2" is symbolic of the dramatic double play made by infielders during a game. It also represents Derek's wish to promote healthy lifestyles among young people and enable them to "Turn 2" his Foundation for guidance and the much needed help to avoid drugs and alcohol.
Turn 2's mission is to create and support signature programs and activities that motivate young people to turn away from drugs and alcohol and "Turn 2" healthy lifestyles. Through these ventures, the Foundation strives to create outlets that promote and reward academic excellence, leadership development, and positive behavior. Turn 2's goal is to see the children of these programs grow safely and successfully into adulthood and become the leaders of tomorrow.
The Foundation will nurture the children it serves with the cooperation of sponsors, partners, and Turn 2 staff. Their commitment and hands on involvement is vital for success.
The following strategies will be used:
Due to Derek's close association with West Michigan, Tampa, Fla., and New York City, programs in those areas are of primary concern to the Foundation. Since its launch in December 1996, the Turn 2 Foundation has awarded more than $20 million in grants to promote healthy lifestyles for thousands of youths.

Helicopter logging will disrupt traffic
Those who travel into Plumas National Forest via Lights Creek Road in Indian Valley may experience delays for a few weeks. Helicopter logging began Wednesday, April 6, on the Cairn MP Fire Salvage Sale, part of the area burned in the Moonlight Wildfire. There will be traffic control on County Road 213, the Lights Creek Road, due to logs being flown overhead.
Logging truck traffic began Monday, April 11, with 50 or more loads expected each day. Most of the logs will be delivered to Collins Pines in Chester. The logs being flown out of the burn area are the larger ones, which remain salvageable longer than smaller ones, according to Public Information Officer LeeAnne Schramel.
Pew Forest Products won the contract bid, and Erickson Air Crane out of Central Point, Ore. is doing the flying.

Ari Laskin on Algorithms, Drone Vision and Military Gaming
The Oxy community is invited to a research talk by Dr. Ari Laskin on Digitizing Representational Ethnicity: Algorithms, Drone Vision, and Military Gaming.
The American military's rapidly increasing use of both computer games and drones has recently drawn tremendous criticism. A dominant component of many of these critiques hinges on the virtualization of killing. Critics typically underscore how gaming has now become a ubiquitous element of militarism, used in recruitment, training, rehabilitation, and actual combat. Where the virtualization of killing has recently caused the greatest concern is with the unprecedented use of drones by a host of United States' agencies. It is often suggested that the virtual nature of such digital combat fosters soldier alienation and unaccountability because of geographical distance and technological mediation. With the aim of critically evaluating the use of such digital military technology, I trouble the ontological assumptions that these debates rest on. To do so, I will focus on military cultural sensitivity training programs and computational targeting systems. In order to shift the debate, I examine how current military manifestations of virtual automation and digital remote fighting are at once technologically novel yet situated within older epistemologies based on the mimetic representations of race, media, and geography in the nineteenth-century.

Artist's Talk in conjunction with Devon Tsuno: Watershed
Please join us for a public talk by artist Devon Tsuno in conjunction with his exhibition, Devon Tsuno: Watershed.
Weingart Gallery
The exhibition remains on view through March 8, 2014.
Occidental College is pleased to present Devon Tsuno: Watershed, an exhibition of new work by emerging artist Devon Tsuno. Tsuno is a Los Angeles native who uses elements of the city's urbanscape to create signature iconography. The exhibition will be on view from February 5 through March 8, 2014 in the College's Weingart Gallery.
As an exhibition, Watershed examines Tsuno's deep relationship with regional waterways, especially the San Gabriel and Los Angeles Rivers and their tributaries. Through his research and experiences, the artist, a lifelong local fishing enthusiast, developed an interest in the non-native plant life that has grown up in the waterways and has become part of the ecosystem. Tsuno photographs the various watershed elements. He distills the images to form his highly layered system and creates paintings and prints that depict his perception Los Angeles.
A series of paintings, prints and unique artist books will be included in the exhibition. The paintings are created from a rich mix of media including acrylic and aerosol paints and handmade papers sourced from The Netherlands, India and Japan. Tsuno's most recent experimentations have resulted in a series of prints created with a Risograph, a 1980s-era printing system using technology similar to fax machines and designed for high-volume photocopying and printing. Additionally, for the exhibition Tsuno has created a series of artist's books in collaboration with Occidental's Book Arts classes using both risograph and letterpress techniques. The book project will evolve over the span of the exhibition.
About Devon Tsuno
Los Angeles-native Devon Tsuno currently lives and works in the Mid-City neighborhood of Los Angeles and has exhibited internationally in South Korea, The Netherlands, Hong Kong, Japan, and New Zealand. Recent solo exhibitions include Azusa Pacific University (Los Angeles), Roppongi 605 (Tokyo), and PØST (Los Angeles). Notable U.S. exhibitions include the Hammer Museum Venice Beach Biennial, Indianapolis Museum of Contemporary Art, and Torrance Art Museum. Recent collaborations include projects with Sony and Finishing School. Tsuno was an artist in residence at Chloë Flores FB, and Stichting Kaus Australis in Rotterdam, The Netherlands.

Gluten-free turkey meatballs with fresh herbs, ginger and lime. |
Shake up your recipe routine with ginger-lime turkey meatballs. |
Gluten-Free Turkey Meatballs Recipe with Lime, Mint and Ginger on a bed of Asian Style Noodles, Baby Spinach and Fresh Herbs
I whipped up an easy Asian stir-fry sauce without soy. But you could easily substitute my molasses and balsamic blend with gluten-free wheat-free tamari sauce.
2 pounds free range organic ground turkey- we use Heidi's Hens® Certified Organic Turkey
1 1/2 cups gluten-free bread crumbs
1 large spring onion or scallion (or 2 small), diced fine
1 medium large carrot, processed or diced very fine
2 cloves fresh garlic, minced
1 teaspoon grated fresh ginger
2 tablespoons fresh chopped parsley
2 tablespoons fresh chopped mint leaves
2 tablespoons fresh chopped cilantro leaves
1 organic free-range egg, beaten
Juice from 1 fresh medium lime
1 tablespoon molasses or wheat-free tamari sauce
1 tablespoon raw agave nectar or real maple syrup
Sea salt and ground pepper, to taste (use less salt if you use tamari sauce)
Preheat the oven to 350ºF. Line a baking sheet Exopat or Silpat. Or double up baking sheets and line the upper pan with parchment paper.
For FODMAPs friendly, omit onions and agave as necessary.
Gluten-free meatballs with Asian style noodles. |
Karina's Quick and Easy Asian Style Noodles
1 package gluten-free noodles or spaghetti
Vegetable oil, as needed
2-3 spring onions or scallions, sliced (white and light green sections)
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 fresh diced chile, or hot pepper flakes, to taste
1-2 teaspoons fresh grated ginger- or to taste
3-4 carrots sliced into matchsticks
3 tablespoons molasses or gluten-free Tamari
2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
Sea salt, to taste
1 12-oz. bag of baby spinach leaves
2 tablespoons each of fresh chopped parsley, mint and cilantro
Bring a pasta pot of water to a rapid boil. Add a dab of vegetable oil. Add the noodles and stir. Cook the quinoa noodles until they are al dente- firm to the bite- not mushy! 4 to 6 minutes. Don't overcook. I mean it.
Freeze leftover meatballs for an easy weeknight supper.
For FODMAPs friendly, omit onions and agave as necessary.

I'm taking a long hiatus to work on projects for ComicCon, but I've got a sequential reboot in the works for this series (and it's looking better than ever!). It's a long time to be away (August seems like the end of time right now), but I'm sure these next months will go by incredibly quick.
Looking forward to sharing new work ~ in the meantime, The Orchard will continue with a regular posting schedule (or irregular as the case appears to be now and then!).
Thank you for reading!

3/4 cup sorghum flour or GF buckwheat flour
1/2 cup sorghum flour- or millet flour
1/2 cup potato starch
1/4 cup tapioca or corn starch
1 teaspoon xanthan gum
1/2 teaspoon sea salt
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 cup organic coconut oil or Spectrum Organic Shortening
1 1/4 cups organic light brown sugar
1 tablespoon vanilla extract
2 tablespoons raw agave nectar or honey
5-6 tablespoons vanilla non-dairy milk- as needed
1 tablespoon Ener-G Egg Replacer whisked with 4 tablespoons warm water till frothy
1 10-oz bag of dairy-free dark chocolate chips
Whisk together the dry ingredients. Add the wet ingredients into the dry mix and stir till well combined. If the dough is way too stiff, add one tablespoon of rice milk at a time to soften. I ended up using 6 tablespoons of rice milk- but it is dry here in the high desert. Add a spoon at a time until the dough holds together- it should be sturdy and glossy.
Add the dairy-free chocolate chips. Stir to combine.
Chill the dough for at least an hour before baking the cookies.
Preheat the oven to 350ºF.
Form the dough into 18 medium- or 36 petite- balls, rolling the dough between your palms. Place the dough balls onto a large baking sheet (non-stick, or lined with parchment paper) with enough breathing room to spread a couple of inches. Flatten the balls gently, slightly with your fingers or the back of a spoon- but not too much, or the cookies may spread into flat pancakes.
Bake in the center of a preheated oven for 12 to 15 minutes or so, depending on the size- until the cookies puff, crack and are firm to a light touch. Cool a minute or two before removing them with a thin spatula to a wire cooling rack.
Plop the dough (recipe above) into a 9x13-inch baking pan lined with greased foil, and spread the dough evenly. Bake in the center of a preheated oven for 22 to 25 minutes, until the center is firm to the touch and a wooden pick inserted into the brownies emerges clean.
Makes 18 generous brownies.
A note on gluten-free flour blends- My basic all-purpose gluten-free flour mix is a specific blend due to multiple allergies (no almond, bean or soy flours). After experimenting with the remaining gluten-free flours I could use, this is the mix I like best: for two cups flour, I use a cup of sorghum with half a cup each of buckwheat,
For crisper cookies use more potato starch, less millet and buckwheat flour.
Dear Readers, if you'd prefer to use eggs and dairy in a cookie bar recipe, try my distinctly delicious Chocolate Chip Cookie Squares recipe.
