LOOKING AHEAD: If Gordon wins the Richmond race Saturday night, he will earn a spot in this year's Chase for the Championship. Anything short of a win means he has to finish seven spots in front of 10th-place Kurt Busch or 15 spots in front of ninth-place Greg Biffle to move into the top 10 and clinch a spot in the Chase. "I've said all along that I think (the spots in the Chase) will come to the last lap at Richmond, and we're going to battle all the way to the checkered flag to try and earn one of those spots," said Gordon. "We missed it early (in the race) last year, but we were able to make some good changes and the car came to life (as he rallied to finish second and make the Chase). This year, I'm hoping we'll be strong from the drop of the green flag all the way to the checkered flag. Winning is our goal this weekend - it's what we want to do every weekend."
LOOKING BACK: At one point early in the Atlanta race, Gordon looked as if he had the car to beat as he led twice for 17 laps. But his victory hopes faded as the track changed. Still, he was able to rally in the final 20 laps to finish sixth to stay in the thick of the battle for the final five spots in the Chase for the Championship. "We had an excellent Drive to End Hunger Chevrolet SS and it just got away from us a little bit," said Gordon. "The track changed quite a bit and we just couldn't battle up front there for the lead and for the win like I thought we could have. Little disappointed in that, but a great effort by the team all weekend long and we will take the momentum of these last two decent finishes, solid runs, and fast cars and take it to Richmond and see what we can do."
ETC.: Gordon and Carl Edwards got into a heated discussion following the Atlanta race last Sunday night. On two different occasions the two talked about the way they raced each other during the 325-lap event. "I have a problem with a guy when I apologize for sliding him and he proceeds to tell me all the things I did wrong in the race," said Gordon. "I didn't hear him apologizing for any of the things that he did. I tried to have a regular conversation and that didn't seem to be possible with him." Added Edwards, "we don't agree on what happened and finally he (Gordon) got frustrated enough with the conversation that he just walked away, which might be smart."
5 KASEY KAHNE, Chevrolet
Team: Hendrick Motorsports
WHERE HE STANDS: 12th, only 10 points out of the top 10. Lost four spots to fall out of the top 10 last week. Has clinched a spot in the Chase for the Championship because of his two wins.
RICHMOND RECORD: One win and seven top-10 finishes in 19 starts.
LOOKING AHEAD: Kahne is elated that he has clinched a spot in the Chase, but his goals for this weekend haven't changed. "We need to win the race and get back in the top 10," said Kahne. "We won't get any bonus points for our wins unless we are in the top 10. Those bonus points would be a big help (in his quest to win the championship). We really have nothing to lose since we are already in the Chase, so we can gamble if we need or whatever to win the race. That is our only goal."
LOOKING BACK: Kahne's victory aspirations ended early Sunday night at Atlanta Motor Speedway when he was caught up in an accordion-type wreck on lap 29 of the 325-lap event. When teammate Jeff Gordon, running second, had trouble getting going on the restart, everyone behind him in the outside line were forced to slow down. Kahne was on the gas when he plowed into the back of teammate Jimmie Johnson. The damage was severe enough that the crew had to replace the radiator and oil cooler. When Kahne returned the race, he stood 42nd in the running. He ended the night in 36th place. "Everyone in front of me was jamming on their brakes and I didn't see that until it was too late," said Kahne. "I feel we were going to have a good night as the car ran pretty well after we got back out there."
ETC.: Kahne won his first Cup race at Richmond in May 2005. Starting from the pole, Kahne dominated the race, leading 242 of the 400 laps. "That is a day I will always remember," said Kahne. "It was one of those special days when everything just goes right. We really had a great car. It sure would be nice to get another win at Richmond."
56 MARTIN TRUEX JR., Toyota
Team: Michael Waltrip Racing
WHERE HE STANDS: 13th, 15 points out of the top 10. Gained one spot last week. Stands second in the wild card standings with one win.
RICHMOND RECORD: Only two top-10 finishes in 15 starts.
LOOKING AHEAD: Richmond has not been one of Truex's better tracks, but he knows he needs to run well there Saturday night if he wants to make the Chase. His edge over Ryan Newman in the race for the second and final wild card spot is only five points. "We did a test there and felt like we were better than when we were there in the spring," said Truex. "That place is very, very difficult. You practice in the day, you race at night, the track changes a lot. You never really know what you have until the race starts. All you can do is do your best."
LOOKING BACK: After breaking a bone in his right wrist during a multi-car accident at Bristol, Truex was forced to wear cast for the Atlanta race. And to compound things, his cast began to disintegrate by the end of the race. "The cast inside my hand got all soft," said Truex. "It's kind of broke right around my thumb. My wrist was moving around a lot more than I wanted it to. I mean, when you're steering back and forth here and you're out of control and you're holding on and you're sawing the wheel - it felt like every time I moved it somebody was hitting it with a hammer. It hurt like hell. The pain got to be real sharp." Despite all his troubles, Truex was able to finish third after having a shot at the win on the final restart with 21 laps to go. "Almost had Kyle (Busch) there on that last restart, almost had him cleared, he got into my right rear getting into (turn) three, he got me loose and once he got into me -- I was too tight and probably wouldn't have been able to hold him off even if I could have cleared him," added Truex. "Third is good night for what we had most of the night."
ETC.: Truex admits he hopes Kasey Kahne gets back in the top 10. "Right now, he has one of the wild card spots locked up so that means we are fighting for the other one unless we can get back in the top 10," said Truex. "Fighting for two spots is easier than one. We were able to have a good night when the pressure was on at Atlanta and we'll have to do it again at Richmond."
39 RYAN NEWMAN, Chevrolet
Team: Stewart-Haas Racing
WHERE HE STANDS: 14th, 20 points out of the top 10. Gained one spot last week. Stands third, only five points back of second-place Martin Truex, Jr., in the wild-card standings with one win.
RICHMOND RECORD: Has finished eighth in the last two September races at Richmond. Overall has one win and 13 top-10 finishes in 23 starts.
LOOKING AHEAD: Newman knows he has to finish at least six spots in front of Martin Truex, Jr. to have any shot at earning a wild card spot in the Chase. "We can still finish in the top 10, but we would have to have a lot of things go our way, so probably our best bet is to outrun the 56 (Truex)," said Newman. "Our short track program has been good all year so we feel good about the weekend."
LOOKING BACK: Despite getting hit on pit road, Newman was able to run up front for most of the evening as he finished fifth at Atlanta. "I'm really proud of everyone and the job they did tonight," said Newman. "We got squeezed on pit road and had to make an unscheduled pit stop to fix the damage and change the tires. The guys did a great job getting the fenders pulled out, and I almost forgot about it (the damage). We struggled a little bit with the handling, but still had a really strong Aspen Dental Chevrolet."
ETC.: In July Newman was told his contract with Stewart-Haas Racing would not be extended because the team was not in position to add a fourth team. A month later, co-owner Gene Haas hired Kurt Busch for a fourth team. When asked about the Busch announcement, Newman replied, "If they didn't tell Stewart why would they tell me. To me, it was more funny than any kind of frustration from my end, it won't affect me. Obviously, it frees up a situation for 2014 but in the end it doesn't affect me. All of Gene's comments don't make any sense to me in reference to anything I did, have done, sponsorship-wise, winning races. There's no logical explanation for it and I think 99 out of 100 people would say the same thing if they were being honest."

Salt and sodium are not the same. Often, we use the terms interchangeably, but only 40% of salt is made up of sodium. The other 60% is chloride. Salt (sodium chloride) is the major contributor of sodium in our diets. One teaspoon of table salt contains about 2,300 milligrams of sodium.
Sodium is essential for good health and life itself. We need to eat a small amount of sodium because the body cannot manufacture this mineral. Also, it is almost impossible to totally eliminate sodium from one's diet because it occurs naturally in most foods including meats, poultry, dairy products and vegetables.
Sodium and sodium-containing ingredients play many important roles during food processing. Of course sodium makes many foods simply taste better, but it also helps preserve and keep foods safe by inhibiting the growth of bacteria, yeasts and molds. For example, sodium-containing compounds are added to ready-to-eat meats and processed cheese products to prevent spoilage and the growth of harmful bacteria. In fermented foods, such as pickles, salt helps to draw moisture out of foods, resulting in a pickled food with a crisp texture. Salt is added to breads to improve texture and sodium bicarbonate, commonly known as baking soda, is used as a leavening agent in baked goods to increase volume and tenderness.
Health experts suggest choosing a diet moderate in salt and sodium. The current recommendation for healthy people is to consume less than 2,300 milligrams of sodium per day. Some individuals may need to have a daily sodium intake of less than 2,300 milligrams per day, as recommended by their health professional. If you are over 51 years old, an African American of any age, or have hypertension, diabetes, or chronic kidney disease, the recommended intake is 1500mg or less per day.
Many factors are associated with high blood pressure (hypertension) including family history, body weight, one's age and, for some people, sodium intake. High blood pressure is one factor that increases the chance of heart disease and strokes, but the exact causes of high blood pressure and how to prevent it are not fully understood.
1. Buy fresh veggies or frozen ones without any sauce. Look for "no-salt-added" canned vegetables. 2. Purchase fresh meats, poultry and fish more often than canned or processed versions. 3. There's no need to add salt when cooking rice, pasta and hot cereals. 4. Select reduced sodium soups and broths. 5. Rinse and drain canned beans (kidney, garbanzo, cannellini) before using. 6. Opt for low- or reduced-sodium, or no-salt-added versions of foods. 7. Experiment with herbs and spices (see pairings below)
You can still have great flavor without adding salt to foods. Examples of common pairings:
Beef: pepper, nutmeg, onion, sage, thyme Pork: garlic, onion, pepper, sage, oregano, rosemary Chicken: ginger, citrus, poultry seasoning, rosemary, tarragon, thyme, curry Fish: dill, citrus, paprika, dry mustard Corn: cumin, onion, parsley Potatoes: dill, garlic, onion, parsley Tomatoes: basil, dill, onion, oregano, parsley
Here's what food product labels tell you about sodium:

can't run the template. had to disable the popup blocker to download. then i went to open and it says i can't open with os x. i downloaded the one for mac. then i tried the other one to see if they got switched. same problem. it is going to be a royal pain to try to get these tent cards formatted.
This review is from AVERY Small Tent Card, 4 per sheet:
I love the small tent cards for use as place cards (love the graphics and templates Avery provides, as well), menu signs, gift tags. I have also figured out how to cut out a pop up to make them 2-dimensional. This is a great product!
This review is from AVERY Small Tent Card, 4 per sheet:
Everyone says it easy but i dont see how easy it is. Im trying to get it to copy paste the templates but it will not do it as a whole, only individually. I need it simple. I should be able to copy paste as many of the templates that I need but im stuck with only 4. Not a good idea for my wedding place card. Not recommended!

I buy these tent cards to display prices for a dog treat business that we own. We are a vendor at farmers' markets and these cards work great for display of product name and price. They fold easily and hold up all season.

This product was very easy to use to make attractive place cards for my son's rehearsal dinner. Didn't have to worry about proper placement of the printed name. It was automatic! This was the ONE thing about getting ready for the wedding that wasn't stressful! I punched holes in the upper right corner of each card and tied a small bow of narrow ribbon color coded for the appropriate entree selection.

"Useless majors" aren't so useless
"Useless majors" aren't so useless
The Daily Beast (www.thedailybeast.com), an online news site which merged with Newsweek this year, printed their list of the "20 Most Useless College Majors." Let's just say, we don't think they nailed it.
At some point in every college student's life, they realize that "majors" and "occupations" don't always line up. In the Hoard's Dairyman editorial office, we have four editors with dairy/animal science majors. However, we spend much more of our time editing and journaling than we do digging deep into the science of the dairy cow. But we aren't that unique.
We know there are plenty of major and occupation instances that line up. President Obama went to Columbia University for political science. Oprah Winfrey studied communication at Tennessee State University. Warren Buffet (his letters alone are famous) studied business administration at the University of Pennsylvania and the University of Nebraska Lincoln.
But Rick Perry (current Governor of Texas, and 2012 Presidential candidate) was born on a ranch in West Texas, and graduated from Texas A & M with an animal science degree. He then went to the political scene, made a three-term stop as the Texas agriculture commissioner, and then won the Lieutenant Governor's office.
Likewise, Nicole Polizzi (better known as Snooki on the MTV reality show "Jersey Shore") was studying at a community college to be a veterinary technician. But then she was cast on MTV's "Is She Really Going Out with Him?", a show about women dating obnoxious men. Today, she is making $30,000 per episode on "Jersey Shore."
Our bother with The Beast
While the above are some pop culture icons and examples of their lives, we probably all know people who's occupations "don't match" the majors. The fact of the matter is, it is all about supply and demand. If there is a lack of Subway or Jimmy Johns sandwich artists, those companies are going to pay more for people with those skills. Likewise, if there is a shortage of rural veterinarians (there is), veterinary offices, farmers, and even state governments will chip in more money to supply the need.
This is where the Daily Beast list misses the mark. They call their list the "20 Most Useless College Majors." But they have no clue about supply and demand. We take personal offense as agriculture seems to have a double-whammy hit on the list.
We won't talk about professions we're not familiar with, but by listing agriculture at number 3 and animal science at 20, the Daily Beast obviously did not do its research. As you may understand, job postings come through this office for agriculture and dairy jobs quite often. Lately, we've been scratching our heads trying to find candidates looking for a job. Usually, new agriculture employees are either college graduates, or poached from another job in which they are happily employed. Animal science is a baffling thing to have on the list with the shortage of veterinarians in this country.
A student at Vermont Technical College teaches a calf to lead during the first week of school in late August.
Also, for agriculture at least, the salaries on this list don't give any example of cost and benefit. In rural America, $35,000 is going to stretch much farther than the blocks surrounding The Daily Beast's New York City offices.
Some words of advice for the students out there: Don't let lists like this dissuade you from pursuing a career in agriculture. Check out the Hoard's Dairyman classifieds at http://www.hoards.com/ed-classified/tid/28 and you'll see plenty of opportunity in farms alone. There is plenty more at colleges and universities, veterinary practices, and corporations the world over.

Democrat Bernard A. Tolbert has told a top potential financier plus three other key sources that he will run for mayor this year, The Buffalo News has learned.
"He told me he is running," said Hormoz Mansouri, a veteran Democratic activist and fundraiser, referring to a primary challenge to two-term incumbent Mayor Byron W. Brown.
Mansouri and another source, meanwhile, said they expect the former special agent in charge of the Buffalo office of the FBI to soon establish a campaign finance committee with the Erie County Board of Elections – possibly as early as this week. Several other sources, who asked not to be identified, said Monday that Tolbert continues to contact potential backers throughout the community, though no date for an official announcement has been set.
"Is he on board? Yes," said one source, who asked not to be identified but who is close to the situation.
Tolbert repeated Monday what he has maintained during the last year – that he is interested in running and, as a result, is talking with and listening to potential supporters throughout the city.
"People see me running around town and at meetings, and I have no doubt they would logically say that," he said of reports that he is running. "My position is that I'm doing that to get the best information I can. I'm spending a lot of time to see if this makes sense."
Mansouri said Monday he has no real problems with Brown but is excited about the prospects of a Tolbert candidacy.
"I don't know what chances he has, but I look at him as a qualified person," said Mansouri, president of a local engineering firm. "But when he asked me if I would support him, I told him I saw no obstacles."
Tolbert has avoided questions about a possible announcement, even as the calendar has now reached March. While Mansouri acknowledged that significant organizational and fundraising work lies ahead, he believes that Tolbert has plenty of time to mount a serious challenge.
Mansouri, who helped Brown in his first run for mayor in 2005, also acknowledged the mayor's current $1.1 million campaign treasury.
"Byron definitely has the funding," Mansouri said. "But that doesn't mean Bernie can't catch up in a very, very short period of time.
"I don't think he needs to raise $1 million, but I don't see why he can't."
In addition to the FBI post in Buffalo, Tolbert also has held top security posts with Coca-Cola in Atlanta and the National Basketball Association in New York.
Mansouri said that he is impressed with Tolbert's law enforcement background and believes that it will emerge as a major selling point during the campaign.
"I believe a big issue is the safety and security of the public," he said.
Mansouri also said Tolbert, 64, has established a vast network of contacts over the years – locally and internationally – who are willing to help finance his effort.
Brown, meanwhile, is viewed as a heavy favorite as he seeks a third term. He enters the race with a substantial lead not only in fundraising, but in organization, and will enjoy a host of advantages stemming from his incumbency.
Deputy Mayor Steven M. Casey said Monday that no date has yet been selected for Brown's official announcement but that it is expected soon.
Republican Sergio R. Rodriguez has also declared his candidacy.
