Winnipeg Free Press - PRINT EDITION
Rich cake benefits from a wee dram
EARLIER this month, Gerri Stemler wrote in asking for a fruit cake recipe published in the Free Press in the 1970s that used dates and Brazil nuts. Thanks to Alice LaFleche and Jeannette Johnston of Keewatin. Another reader wrote in requesting a recipe for Ukrainian honey cookies, saying that hers had turned out hard as rocks. Thanks to Jeannette Johnston (again!) and to Randy Marchinko, who sent in an old family recipe.
If you can help with a recipe request, have your own request, or a favourite recipe you'd like to share, send an email to email@example.com, fax it to 697-7412, or write to Recipe Swap, c/o Alison Gillmor, Winnipeg Free Press, 1355 Mountain Ave., Winnipeg, MB, R2X 3B6. Please include your first and last name, address and telephone number.
Brazil nut sensation
175 ml (3/4 cup) sifted all-purpose flour
175 ml (3/4 cup) granulated sugar
2 ml (1/2 tsp) baking powder
2 ml (1/2 tsp) salt
750 ml (3 cups) shelled Brazil nuts, roughly chopped
450 g (1 lb) pitted dates, roughly chopped
250 ml (1 cup) maraschino cherries, drained and halved
3 eggs
5 ml (1 tsp) vanilla
Preheat oven to 150 C (300 F). Line a 22x12.5x7.5 cm (9x5x3 inch) loaf pan with parchment paper. Sift together flour, sugar, baking powder and salt. In large bowl, mix nuts, dates and cherries. Sift flour over this mixture and stir until well coated. Beat eggs until foamy, add vanilla, and stir into nut mixture until well mixed. Spread evenly in prepared pan. Bake for 1 hour and 45 minutes, or until cake tests done. Cool in pan on wire rack. Wrap in foil and store in fridge. (Will keep for 5-6 weeks.)
Tester's notes: Dark, dense and rich, this holiday treat is basically a whole lot of dates and nuts held together with just a bit of cake batter. I really liked using dates rather than glace fruit and peel mixes. I couldn't justify buying Brazil nuts when I had lots of nuts left over from holiday baking, so I used a mix of walnuts, pecans and blanched almonds, which worked fine. I also sprinkled a little Scotch over the cake before wrapping.
Baba's old country cookies
250 ml (1 cup) honey
250 ml (1 cup) brown or raw sugar
500 ml (2 cups) all-purpose flour
3 eggs
500 ml (2 cups) all-purpose flour
7 ml (1 1/2 tsp) baking soda
5 ml (1 tsp) cinnamon
2 ml (1/2 tsp) salt
125 ml (1/2 cup) finely chopped walnuts
Preheat oven to 160 C (325 F). Lightly oil a cookie sheet. In a medium heavy pot, bring honey and sugar to a boil. Add 500 ml (2 cups) flour to the boiling honey and mix well. Remove from heat and cool until mixture is just warm. Add the eggs and blend well. In small bowl, combine the other 500 ml (2 cups) flour with baking soda, cinnamon, salt and walnuts, add to honey mixture and mix well. Drop small rounds of dough onto prepared sheet, flatten slightly and bake for about 15 minutes or until lightly browned. Cool and store in a tightly closed container.
Tester's notes: Randy's grandmother made these spiced honey cookies in the first cool days of fall and then they were hidden away to mellow until Christmas -- unless the kids found them first. Usually made without butter, shortening or oil, these cookies -- also called medovniky or medianyky -- actually get better with age, as the texture softens and the honey and spice flavour deepens. Randy suggests adding half a cut apple to the closed container if you need to speed up the process. Some recipes call for the dough to be rolled out, cut into shapes and decorated with sugar.

Gadgil says it's premature to evaluate report
A working group headed by Planning Commission member K. Kasturirangan will assess the Western Ghats Ecology Expert Panel (WGEEP) report and submit an action plan for its "effective implementation" to the Ministry of Environment and Forests (MoEF).
The Ministry has asked the group to evaluate the report of the Madhav Gadgil panel in a "holistic and multidisciplinary fashion in the light of the comments" received from various stakeholders, including State governments and Central Ministries.
The group has C.R. Babu, former Pro-Vice Chancellor, University of Delhi; J.M. Mauskar, former Special Secretary, MoEF; Kanchan Chopra, former director, Institute of Economic Growth, Delhi; Jagdish Kishwan, Additional Director-General of Forests (Wildlife), MoEF; Darshan Shankar, Chairman, Institute of Ayurveda and Integrative Medicine, Bangalore; Sunita Narain, Director-General, Centre for Science and Environment, New Delhi; and P.S. Roy, Director, Indian Institute of Remote Sensing, Dehradun, as its members. Indrani Chandrasekhran will be a special invitee.
It will also study the "effects and challenges of climate change in the ecologically significant Western Ghats region," "the implications of the UNESCO heritage site recognition of some parts of the Western Ghats" and the constitutional implications of Centre-State relations regarding the conservation and sustainable development of the region." It is also expected to "recommend further course of action" regarding the report within two months.
Preserving biodiversity
The group is also expected to look into the "imperatives of equitable economic and social growth of the region in the most sustainable manner with special attention to the preservation of the precious biodiversity of the Western Ghats and to prevent further degradation of the same."
Rights of locals
It will also focus on the "rights, needs and development aspirations of local and indigenous people, tribals, forest dwellers and the most disadvantaged sections of the local community recognising the importance of equitable economic and social growth being harmoniously balanced with sustainable development and environmental integrity."
The Gadgil panel report was released nine months after it was submitted last year. The Ministry had sought the views of six State governments and 11 Central Ministries on the report.
It had also given time for the public to respond to the findings of the panel.
"Masses not heard"
Prof. Gadgil said it would be premature for the group to assess the comments and the report as the views of a majority of the stakeholders had not been obtained. Till now, only the views of some elite groups were taken leaving out the masses in the region, he said.
Mr. Gadgil suggested that the group get the views of the WGEEP. However, there are no indications that the group is open for discussions with the panel. V.S. Vijayan, a member of the panel, feared that if the report of the working group turned out to be against the views of the government, there would be another committee to assess the report.
The working group should give an opportunity to the WGEEP to explain its views. It should also elicit the views of the general public, Dr. Vijayan said.

From the Publisher:
The twentieth century was a time of great change in China's government, economy, culture, and everyday life. Twentieth Century China, Second Edition, chronicles this period of revolutions and uprisings with the words and images of the participants. This is the story of the people--leaders and followers--whose decisions propelled modern Chinese history in erratic directions. Using a wide variety of primary sources, including official reports and public statements, articles, political posters, cartoons, poetry, songs, and advertisements, R. Keith Schoppa paints a picture of a society undergoing drastic changes, both social and political. Mao Zedong's personal physician recalls the phenomenon of backyard steel furnaces and the changes they brought to the Chinese landscape during Mao's Great Leap Forward; a poem written in 1979 expresses anger toward a general who destroyed a kindergarten to build a mansion on its site; and the box from the Chinese version of Monopoly, introduced in 1987, playfully illustrates the economic reforms of Deng Xiaoping and Jiang Zemin. Expanded to cover the 2008 Beijing Olympics, this second edition of Twentieth Century China also includes an updated introduction with a note on sources and interpretation, thirty-seven new sidebars, twelve new photographs, and updated further reading and websites. |

Wrights, California (also known as Wrights Station) is a ghost town in unincorporated west Santa Clara County, California. It is located near Summit Road in the Santa Cruz Mountains, on the north bank of Los Gatos Creek, east of State Route 17.[2]
The National Weather Service maintained a cooperative weather station on the site of Wrights until May 31, 1986, which recorded rainfall and snowfall.[3] The weather station was 1,600 feet (490 m) above sea level.[4] The location is on the San Andreas Fault, according to the U.S. Geological Survey, and it experienced considerable damage in the 1906 San Francisco earthquake.[5] Geologists observed a lateral displacement of 4.6 feet (1.4 m) at Wrights.[6]
Wrights is one of a number of ghost towns in the Santa Cruz Mountains that flourished during the last half of the nineteenth century. Laurel, Wrights, Glenwood, and Clems declined when the Los Gatos-Santa Cruz railroad ceased operations in March 1940. Later in 1940, Patchen was bypassed and isolated by the construction of State Route 17; since the late 1960s it has been a Christmas tree ranch. Alma and Lexington were submerged in Lexington Reservoir in 1952, along State Route 17 above Los Gatos.
In the 1870s a toll road was built over the mountains from Los Gatos to Santa Cruz that was utilized by stagecoaches. Then, a narrow gauge railroad from Alameda was constructed along the same route, beginning in 1877, by San Francisco capitalists James Fair and Alfred E. Davis, who headed the South Pacific Coast Railroad (SPCRR). One of the stops along the line, just below the summit of the Santa Cruz Mountains, was adjacent to the property of James Richards Wright, who had a residence/hotel known as Arbor Villa in Burrell near the summit, and he maintained commercial orchards of fruit trees and grapes.[7] The small community that sprouted around this stop on the railroad became known as Wright's Station, or simply Wrights. The Rev. Wright was the patriarch of a large family that had moved to California from Ohio and the younger brother of the well-known abolitionist Elizur Wright. One of his sons, Frank Vincent Wright, later married Susie Davis, the daughter of SPCRR president Alfred Davis, and another son, Sumner Banks Wright, moved to southern California and established a town in the San Bernardino mountains known as Wrightwood, today a ski resort.
A post office was established at Wrights in 1879, and the railroad was completed in 1880 from Los Gatos, along the Los Gatos Creek, to Wrights Station, about a mile east of Patchen.[8] During the construction of the main railroad tunnel (between Wrights and Laurel), a strong flow of natural gas was encountered, and an explosion followed, which resulted in the death of thirty-two Chinese workers. The main leak was subsequently stopped, but gas continued to escape in small quantities. The extent of the supply was unknown.[9] U.S. Geological Survey maps from 1919 show the railroad running from Los Gatos to Santa Cruz, with stops in Alma, Wrights, Laurel, Glenwood, Clems, Zayante, Eccles, Felton, and Scotts Valley. There were a series of tunnels, including a 6,200-foot (1,900 m) tunnel between Wright and Laurel, most of which were later blocked when the railroad ceased operations. Wrights itself had a benchmark elevation of 896 feet (273 m).[10]
Wrights Station was an important shipping point for extensive fruit growing areas in the Santa Cruz mountains. By the 1890s, there were about 3,200 acres (13 km2) under cultivation. The soil consists largely of disintegrated sandstone and clay, and has the appearance, particularly on the hilltops, of the "white ash" soil of the Fresno raisin district.
Vineyards were planted, providing grapes for commercial wine producers, such as Almaden Vineyards and Paul Masson. There was a thriving timber industry, too, utilizing the redwoods of the Santa Cruz Mountains. All utilized the railroad. Wrights Station was one of the small settlements that grew up along the railroad.[9]
Alice Matty and her father, Antone, came to Wrights in 1880 from San Francisco. Her father was originally from the Maritime Alps region of France. Antone Matty worked in the general store for eight years. An overheated stove in the town's hotel started a fire in 1885 that leveled the entire settlement. While Wrights was being rebuilt, Antone ran the store from a boxcar parked on the railroad siding.
In 1887, journalist Josephine McCracken visited Wrights (as it was commonly called), reporting the community had "a depot, hotel, store, post office, blacksmith shop, besides a number of decidedly ugly and disgraceful-looking Chinese stores and wash houses. Fir-crowned mountains frowned down upon it, and the hideous black mouth of the great tunnel close by is always wide open, with the evident and determined intention of swallowing up the train – engine, cars, and all – as it approached from the San Francisco side."
By 1888, Antone Matty had saved enough money to buy the store, and by 1896 he owned the town. Since the Matty family had six children, Matty helped to organize a school district, and soon the town had a school. The Wright School was a shingle-walled building with a belfry, and was in operation until 1928. Matty became a member of the Santa Clara Valley Pioneer Association, and later joined the Sempervirens Club, a conservation organization devoted to saving the redwoods.
Southern Pacific Railroad bought the narrow gauge SPCRR railroad and decided to take advantage of a craze for picnic excursion trains. They opened a short spur line along the creek at Wrights. They named the area "Sunset Park", and began hauling trainloads of passengers into the Santa Cruz mountains. Unfortunately, according to contemporary reports, the visitors gathered armloads of ferns and wildflowers, left a trail of discarded litter strewn along the railroad right-of-way, and kicked out the passenger car windows on the return trip. The 1906 earthquake ended the excursion trains and Sunset Park.
Besides the numerous farms in the region, a number of homes were constructed, many of which were destroyed in the April 18, 1906, earthquake. A fissure opened under the house at the Morrell Ranch, throwing the structure from its foundation and splitting it in two. The quake also destroyed a number of bridges, damaged the tunnels, and twisted the rails, as Robert Iacopi and William Bronson recounted in their published accounts. Another large fissure opened in the dirt road near the blacksmith shop. About 400 feet from the eastern end of the 6,200 feet (1.9 km) railroad tunnel (between Wrights and Laurel), a 5-foot (150 cm) offset occurred, badly damaging the tunnel. Fences were also split.[11]
Alice Matty, her sisters Teresa and Anna, and her three brothers grew up at Wrights. When the station agent, Mr. Hunter, was replaced in the 1900s, Alice was appointed to take over his position, becoming the first woman station agent hired by Southern Pacific in California. Bruce MacGregor described the job: "The Wrights station agent inked in waybills for loadings of hay, beans, prunes and figs, cargo that would fill two or three boxcars a day. The lumber freighting eclipsed all other cargoes combined." There was a daily freight train from Alameda. Several local freights and mixed trains (passengers and freight) passed through Wrights every day on their way to Santa Cruz or San Jose.
Besides preparing waybills, Alice Matty was the telegrapher and the ticket agent. She handled the manual signal levers that threw the switches when trains needed to be taken off the main line and placed on sidings. Located in the bottom of a canyon, Wrights had its share of flash floods, rock slides, and forest fires. Alice frequently had to telegraph for a repair crew to clear rocks from the track, or shore up a sagging roadbed after a heavy storm. Increasing rail traffic resulted in an increase in the number of accidents.
Alice Matty never married; she stayed at Wrights with her father, who lived until 1922. In later years she worked at the Bank of America in Los Gatos, when it was located at the corner of Main Street and Santa Cruz Avenue.[12]
The railroad was rebuilt after the earthquake, only to cease operations in 1940 following a landslide caused by heavy rains in February of that year; this disaster further contributed to the decline of Wrights (the post office had already closed two years before). The routing of State Route 17 away from Wrights in 1940 also led to the village's demise. Sadly, in that same year Arbor Villa, the Wright family home, which was still occupied by Clara Wright, the youngest daughter of James Richards Wright, burned to the ground and was never rebuilt.
Wrights has so completely disappeared that today no trace remains, except the ruins of the old tunnel. Some building foundations and debris from the town can still be found in the dense woods. Satellite and ground photographs show thick overgrowth and forest on the site. The surrounding area is now only sparsely settled. The name of the community lives on in "Wrights Station Road", which runs through the redwood forest from Morrill Road to Cathermola Road (also known as Metcalf Road on some maps), north of Summit Road. Wrights Station Road crosses Los Gatos Creek on an historic bridge with iron railings (possibly dating from the 1920s), ending at the site of the town. Lake Elsman, a reservoir, is near the site of Wrights. Several miles of the original Los Gatos – Santa Cruz narrow gauge railroad have been preserved in Santa Cruz County and trains operate year-round as a tourist attraction known as the Santa Cruz, Big Trees and Pacific Railway.
Weather station[edit]
The National Weather Service cooperative station, which operated on the site of Wrights until 1986, primarily recorded rainfall and snowfall. Based on those observations, Wrights had an average annual rainfall of 46.09 inches (117.1 cm) and an average annual snowfall of 1.2 inches (3.0 cm). The maximum annual rainfall was 87.65 inches (222.6 cm) in 1983 and the minimum was 17.88 inches (45.4 cm) in 1976. The greatest 24-hour rainfall was 13.79 inches (35.0 cm) on October 12, 1962, during the famous Columbus Day storm that affected much of northern California, Oregon, and Washington. The maximum annual snowfall was 10.6 inches (27 cm) in 1974. Some temperature records for Wrights exist, showing a record high of 102°F on August 5, 1978.[13]
This region experiences warm (but not hot) and dry summers, with no average monthly temperatures above 71.6 °F. According to the Köppen Climate Classification system, Wrights has a warm-summer Mediterranean climate, abbreviated "Csb" on climate maps.[14]

Claim: University researchers demonstrate the order of letters within words is unimportant to reading comprehension.
Origins: This little bit of intriguing linguistic trivia stormed through inboxes in September 2003. That the order of letters within words is relatively unimportant to reading comprehension as long as the first and last letters are in their proper places seems to be self-evident, as demonstrated by the ability of nearly everyone who came across this item to understand what it said (although this is a very general application — results may vary when different types of words and contexts are used), but was there really a university study to this effect?

Situation Outbreak Two, the prequel to the original Half-Life 2 total conversion that started it all, is
an upcoming "stand-alone" Counter-Strike: Source modification about the impending zombie apocalypse.

After five glorious years of developing modifications for the Source engine, the last year of which we've been largely inactive, it is with a heavy heart I announce the official closing of Agent Red Productions. Work on all projects, new and old, have ceased indefinitely. Our website will still be up for a couple more months until the domain name expires, but with limited to no support.
I hope this hasn't come as a shock to anyone. That said, I do apologize that we were not able to finish the projects we set out to complete. Ever since Lethal Stigma's development team all but disappeared and Half-Life 2: Retaliation's development came to a close following an unfortunate data loss incident, our studio has had little to no in-house support, only retaining a core few active members along the way. It has always been my intention to complete development on Situation Outbreak 2, and I believe there's still plenty of room for improvement with Contingency, but we simply do not have the resources to see those projects through at this time, nor have we for the past year. Perhaps one day they'll see the light, but in the meantime, we cannot continue.
I want to personally thank everyone involved in the development of all of our mods throughout the years, regardless of contribution or commitment. We could not have gotten as far as we did without you. I would also like to thank everyone who has supported us and played what we've produced, especially those who have been with us since our inception. Our projects were always made for you, the community, and so we sincerely hope you've enjoyed them.
If you have any final comments, questions, suggestions or concerns for any of us here at Agent Red Productions, please email me at firstname.lastname@example.com and I will get back to you as soon as possible.

Co-founder of Agent Red Productions
It's certainly looking that way. :)
SO2's development may be restarting soon with a slightly new direction. Please stay tuned.
Your people says YES YES
As I do
First reaction : Awwwwwww yeeeeeaaaaaaa
Second reaction : FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU
We were working on it for quite a while, but development came to quite a halt when Contingency was introduced and hasn't continued since then. I'm now busy with school and don't have the time to manage such a project -- at least not right now.
Howbout releasing the source code then?
Like in SO1, that would be great!
Of course! It has actually been available since the beginning of development via Google Code: Code.google.com

The end is near
The Nuclear Regulatory Commission supervises our nuclear power plants. It is neither super nor visionary, and that is the extent of our protection.
The oil and gas lobbyists kept us from replacing our light water reactors (Yankee Nuclear) with integral fast reactors developed by the Argonne National Laboratory as a safer alternative that would also consume the spent fuel rods stored next to the light water reactors. The lobbyists were protecting oil and gas plants from replacement with integral fast reactors. The two Westinghouse AP1000 reactors now to be built in Georgia are estimated at $7 billion each. How many solar panels and wind generators could be built for that money? Fortunately, we have hydro in Quebec and on the Connecticut River. Those generators could be replaced several times over with that money.
The nuclear catastrophe we were all fearing, and hiding from under our school desks, is happening now as the aging plants crumble and fall apart whenever there is an earthquake or tsunami or flood to wreck the safeguards and allow the fuel to overreact and radiate every living thing for hundreds of miles with fallout dust. There is no containment.
There is no protection from accidents. Aging switches, valves and water pumps can and do fail, the cooling of the fission process stops, and the plant is out of control. The plants are as dangerous as aging nuclear warheads, and circumstances beyond our control will cause them to release a plume of radioactive dust carried everywhere by the wind.
The Stanley Kramer film On the Beach showed us that wind, blowing the protest signs over the dust, in the last beautiful sunset we would ever see. The Fukushima Daiichi reactor buildings in Japan are still releasing radioactive materials into the air above the plant and the groundwater under it. The saltwater fish passing by in the Pacific Ocean are irradiated, eaten by larger fish and then by us. Yankee Nuclear presents just such a threat to the fish in the Connecticut River. Do you fish there? Do you swim there?
I just visited the atom bomb museum in Nagasaki, Japan. It is clear to me that people who think that blowing up bombs will reverse social problems have no idea of what the other consequences of those nuclear explosions have been to generations of families. The risk posed by nuclear reactors in power generating plants run amok is just as grave.
Some of the families of Okuma, near the Fukushima reactors, were living there for 1,000 years. The elders describe an almost spiritual attachment to the land where they grew rice for at least 19 generations and that holds the family graves that Confucian tradition forbids them to abandon. The radiation levels will keep them out of their ancestral homes for the rest of their lifetimes. We need to protect our land and our ways of life from the clear and present danger presented by nuclear power plants.
The consequences of inaction are detailed at ifyoulovethisplanet.org/?p+6282 in a conversation between Dr. Helen Caldicott and nuclear engineer Arnie Gundersen on the present danger posed by the continuing disaster at Fukushima Daiichi, Japan.

Eduard Künneke
Eduard Künneke (also seen as Edward and spelled Künnecke) (27 January 1885 – 27 October 1953) was a German composer of operettas, operas and theatre music. He was born in Emmerich. His daughter was the actress and singer Evelyn Künneke.
Künneke studied musicology and literature in Berlin, and was also an advanced student of Max Bruch. He worked as a repetiteur and chorus master at a Berlin operetta theatre, the Neues Operettentheater am Schiffbauerdamm, but relinquished his post as chorus master after his opera Robins Ende (1909) was premiered in Mannheim and then received productions at 38 different German opera houses. Künneke later worked under Max Reinhardt and wrote incidental music for Reinhardt's staging of Part Two of Goethe's Faust.
Künneke's graceful music is distinguished by its rhythm and striking harmonies. His best-known work is the 1921 operetta Der Vetter aus Dingsda; many of his songs are still familiar today.
In 1926, when his operetta Lady Hamilton was premiered in Breslau (now Wrocław), he formed what would become a long friendship with the conductor Franz Marszalek. Marszalek was a dedicated advocate of Künneke's music, and during his tenure at the Westdeutscher Rundfunk in Cologne (1949–65) made numerous recordings of his works (many currently unavailable) with the Cologne Radio Orchestra and the Cologne Radio Symphony Orchestra.

Video:How to Do a Pilates Ball Extension Exercise
with Lesley PowellThe modern lifestyle can sap the strength from your hips and spine, hurting your overall posture. But with this easy Pilates ball extension exercise, you can improve your flexibility and strength. Check it out!See Transcript
Transcript:How to Do a Pilates Ball Extension Exercise
Hi. I am Lesley Powell, the director of Movements Afoot, a Pilates wellness studio in mid-Manhattan.This is Mandy Chan, one of my Pilates teachers at our studio. She will be demonstrating the extension prone ball exercise.
Strengthening Your Extensors
We are going to do a great exercise improving your extensor strength on the balls. Especially with our culture so much inflexibility with our sitting in front of computers and tv's, in cars and lack of walking, we are losing important strength in our hips for standings and spine. Improving our extensor strength will change our posture to sit and stand taller.Use a 65 cm Ball
We are going to use a 65 cm ball and a wall to press our feet against. Since most people have just want one ball at home, I find the 65 cm ball more versatile. Sitting at the computer on a ball is a great way to keep our backs free from the compression of poor sitting.Focus on the Legs
To strengthen the back, it is important to use the legs. This helps to keep the back in length. Without the legs, a lot of people shorten the back and this can lead to discomfort. When you do this exercise well with the legs, extending the back will be a piece of cake.How to Position Your Body
To start, it is important how you place yourself on the ball. Since all of us have different structures of length, you need to find the correct position for your body:- Kneel with your feet facing the wall.
- Place the ball in front of your hips.
- Press the ball out by straightening your legs.
- Place just the heels on the wall with your toes on the floor. It is like you are standing in low pump shoes on the wall
- Come back to kneeling with your spine on the ball.
Check Your Muscles
Around the buttock cheeks is your gluteal folds. The muscles around this fold and the side of the hips are our goal to activate. Squeezing the buttocks together kicks important muscles that help us stand better and flexes and rounds the lower spine. We want the opposite movement to happen where your spine extends.The wall gives the feeling of pushing against the foot bar of the reformer. You want to simultaneously push the feet backwards as you move the tone around the gluteal fold into the ball.
Push Heals into the Wall
Starting at the kneeling position, simultaneously push the heels in the wall and the top of the thigh into the ball. The legs are straight and strong.Lift Your Arms
Intensively the tone at the gluteal fold, and the spine will lift into the extension. Lift the arms up only to the height where you have wide shoulders front and back.If for any reason, you feel in in the back. Modify the lift of the spine and arms. Practice developing better strength of the legs. Your goal is to get the tone around the back of the leg to press into the ball.

Alaska Mom Convicted of Child Abuse for Hot Sauce Punishment
Originally posted 08/24/2011 09:30AM
An Alaska mother who disciplined her 7-year-old for misbehaving in school by pouring hot sauce down his throat and then giving him a cold shower – all the time videotaping what she was doing so she could be considered for an appearance on Dr. Phil – was found guilty of one misdemeanor count of child abuse by an Anchorage jury on Tuesday.
Standing when her verdict was read, Jessica Beagley, 36, then quickly left the courtroom with her husband Gary, an Anchorage police officer, reports the Anchorage Daily News. In their haste to exit, the two did not respond to reporters' questions.
Anchorage prosecutors said the videotape of the crying young Kristoff, whom the Beagleys adopted from Russia with his twin brother in 2008, was filmed by the couple's 10-year-old daughter. The Beagleys have six children.
Prosecutor Cynthia Franklin praised the verdict, saying jurors "followed the law and they concluded that it is child abuse to hurt your child as an audition for a television show."
Crystal Harris Denies Romance with Dr. Phil's Son
Originally posted 06/15/2011 07:35AM
Yes, Crystal Harris and Hugh Hefner have called off their wedding – but no, Dr. Phil's son Jordan McGraw is not the reason behind the split.
These stories are "absolutely not true," Harris's manager Michael Blakey tells PEOPLE. "This is pure fabrication. There is no relationship, nor has there ever been one. This is a stupid rumor."
Rumors of a romantic connection between the two first surfaced in March, when Harris and McGraw were reportedly spotted looking cozy at L.A. hotspot Chateau Marmont.

Dr. Phil Slapped with Bizarre Brainwashing Lawsuit
Originally posted 10/08/2009 10:00AM
A woman has filed a lawsuit in Los Angeles Superior Court against Dr. Phil McGraw, two producers and another doctor in what she alleges is a case of false imprisonment, practicing without a license, indecent exposure, battery, fraud and more.
Shirley Rae Dieu, 56, of Irvine, Calif., claims she was seeking therapy from Dr. Phil in his Hollywood office in 2007 when she allegedly was held captive and "forced to be in the same room with a completely live naked man while he exposed his entire naked body, genitals and all," according to her filing.
Dieu further alleges she was deprived of sleep and food, "brainwashed" and "subjected to edited tapings depicting her as a different personality other than her own." On Oct. 9, 2007, she claims Dr. Phil touched her left breast during a therapy session.
Representatives for McGraw did not immediately respond to a request for comment.
Dr. Phil to Be a First-Time Granddad

Dr. Phil McGraw is going to be a grandfather – and he will announce it on his TV show Tuesday, PEOPLE has learned.
This will be the first grandchild for Dr. Phil and wife Robin, and the first child for their 30-year-old son Jay and his wife, Erica McGraw.
Dr. Phil, 59, says he got the happy news during a recent trip to Europe. "We were actually vacationing with the whole family and were in Elba, Italy," he says. "Jay and Erica had discreetly gotten several home pregnancy tests the day before in France, and they sat us all down in Elba and said they had some exciting news! 'We are pregnant!' "
"The day before Robin had said to me, 'I just get the feeling that Erica is pregnant.' I swear she is some kind of mind-reader, but I guess women know these things."
Dr. Phil, Leno, Ellen: Yes We Can!
Originally posted 02/26/2009 10:45AM
"Yes We Can" has taken on new meaning.
Some of the country's top talk show hosts are riffing off President Obama's campaign slogan with a campaign of their own in support of hard-hit local food banks.
Dr. Phil, Ellen DeGeneres, Bonnie Hunt, Jay Leno, Craig Ferguson and The Doctors are asking audience members at their shows to donate canned goods to help re-stock the L.A. Food Bank, as well as agencies nationwide affected by the economic downturn. The goal of the "Yes We Can" campaign: to collect 12,000 cans of food a week through April.
Ferguson joked, "I was ecstatic, as we often encourage audience members to leave all heavy, metal objects outside the stage." In the tradition of lounge comedy, he added, "audience members are still free to bring fresh food in to express their distaste for the comedy."
George Michael Calls Out Dr. Phil At Concert

George Michael gave Dr. Phil McGraw a little tough love at his concert Wednesday night at the L.A. Forum.
"I probably shouldn't say this, but it's very me. Dr. Phil is here, and in the sea of faces he has this miserable look – he's been doing it for the last hour," the British singer said from the stage at McGraw, who was in the audience. "Maybe you need to see someone about that."

Egyptian political satirist under scanner for 'mocking' Morsi
A popular Egyptian political satirist has been accused of insulting the country's President Mohamed Morsi.
A formal complaint was brought against Bassem Youssef for 'undermining the standing' of Morsi in his television show.
Separately, an independent newspaper said it has been accused by the presidency of "circulating false news" and is being investigated, the BBC reports.
Bassem Youssef is a doctor who shot to fame after winning a huge number of followers with his witty lampooning of public figures in amateur videos posted on the internet following the uprising that ended Hosni Mubarak's rule.
He became a household name when his satirical programme began to be broadcast three times a week on one of Egypt's independent satellite stations.
Youssef has poked fun at everyone from fellow television presenters to well-known Muslim scholars and most recently Morsi himself, the report said.
He portrayed Morsi as a pharaoh, calling him "Super Morsi" for holding on to executive and legislative powers.
Separately, putting Morsi's image on a pillow and parodying his speeches have angered one Islamist lawyer, whose formal complaint has resulted in the investigation, the report said.

New Hampshire Statutory Durable Power of Attorney for Health Care INFORMATION CONCERNING THE DURABLE POWER OF ATTORNEY FOR HEALTH CARE THIS IS AN IMPORTANT LEGAL DOCUMENT. BEFORE SIGNING THIS DOCUMENT YOU SHOULD KNOW THESE IMPORTANT FACTS: Except to the extent you state otherwise, this document gives the person you name as your agent the authority to make any and all health care decisions for you when you are no longer capable of making them yourself. "Health care" means any treatment, service or procedure to maintain, diagnose or treat your physical or mental condition. Your agent, therefore, can have the power to make a broad range of health care decisions for you. Your agent may consent, refuse to consent, or withdraw consent to medical treatment and may make decisions about withdrawing or withholding life-sustaining treatment. Your agent cannot consent or direct any of the following: commitment to a state institution, sterilization, or termination of treatment if you are pregnant and if the withdrawal of that treatment is deemed likely to terminate the pregnancy unless the failure to withhold the treatment will be physically harmful to you or prolong severe pain which cannot be alleviated by medication. You may state in this document any treatment you do not desire, except as stated above, or treatment you want to be sure you receive. Your agent's authority will begin when your doctor certifies that you lack the capacity to make health care decisions. If for moral or religious reasons you do not wish to be treated by a doctor or examined by a doctor for the certification that you lack capacity, you must say so in the document and name a person to be able to certify your lack of capacity. That person may not be your agent or alternate agent or any person ineligible to be your agent. You may attach additional pages if you need more space to complete your statement. If you want to give your agent authority to withhold or withdraw the artificial providing of nutrition and fluids, your document must say so. Otherwise, your agent will not be able to direct that. Under no conditions will your agent be able to direct the withholding of food and drink for you to eat and drink normally. Your agent will be obligated to follow your instructions when making decisions on your behalf. Unless you state otherwise, your agent will have the same authority to make decisions about your health care as you would have had if made consistent with state law. It is important that you discuss this document with your physician or other health care providers before you sign it to make sure that you understand the nature and range of decisions which may be made on your behalf. If you do not have a physician, you should talk with someone else who is knowledgeable about these issues and can answer your questions. You do not need a lawyer's assistance to complete this document, but if there is anything in this document that you do not understand, you should ask a lawyer to explain it to you. The person you appoint as agent should be someone you know and trust and must be at least 18 years old. If you appoint your health or residential care provider (e.g. your physician, or an employee of a home health agency, hospital, nursing home, or residential care home, other than a relative), that person will have to choose between acting as your agent or as your health or residential care provider; the law does not permit a person to do both at the same time. You should inform the person you appoint that you want him or her to be your health care agent. You should discuss this document with your agent and your physician and give each a signed copy. You should indicate on the document itself the people and institutions who will have signed copies. Your agent will not be liable for health care decisions made in good faith on your behalf. Even after you have signed this document, you have the right to make health care decisions for yourself as long as you are able to do so, and treatment cannot be given to you or stopped over your objection. You have the right to revoke the authority granted to your agent by informing him or her or your health care provider orally or in writing. This document may not be changed or modified. If you want to make changes in the document you must make an entirely new one. You should consider designating an alternate agent in the event that your agent is unwilling, unable, unavailable, or ineligible to act as your agent. Any alternate agent you designate will have the same authority to make health care decisions for you. THIS POWER OF ATTORNEY WILL NOT BE VALID UNLESS IT IS SIGNED IN THE PRESENCE OF TWO (2) OR MORE QUALIFIED WITNESSES WHO MUST BOTH BE PRESENT WHEN YOU SIGN AND ACKNOWLEDGE YOUR SIGNATURE. THE FOLLOWING PERSONS MAY NOT ACT AS WITNESSES: --the person you have designated as your agent; --your spouse; --your lawful heirs or beneficiaries named in your will or a deed; ONLY ONE OF THE TWO WITNESSES MAY BE YOUR HEALTH OR RESIDENTIAL CARE PROVIDER OR ONE OF THEIR EMPLOYEES. DURABLE POWER OF ATTORNEY FOR HEALTH CARE I, __________________, hereby appoint _________________ of _____________ as my agent to make any and all health care decisions for me, except to the extent I state otherwise in this document or as prohibited by law. This durable power of attorney for health care shall take effect in the event I become unable to make my own health care decisions. STATEMENT OF DESIRES, SPECIAL PROVISIONS, AND LIMITATIONS REGARDING HEALTH CARE DECISIONS. For your convenience in expressing your wishes, some general statements concerning the withholding or removal of life-sustaining treatment are set forth below. (Life-sustaining treatment is defined as procedures without which a person would die, such as but not limited to the following: cardiopulmonary resuscitation, mechanical respiration, kidney dialysis or the use of other external mechanical and technological devices, drugs to maintain blood pressure, blood transfusions, and antibiotics.) There is also a section which allows you to set forth specific directions for these or other matters. If you wish you may indicate your agreement or disagreement with any of the following statements and give your agent power to act in those specific circumstances. 1. If I become permanently incompetent to make health care decisions, and if I am also suffering from a terminal illness, I authorize my agent to direct that life-sustaining treatment be discontinued. (YES) (NO) (Circle your choice and initial beneath it.) 2. Whether terminally ill or not, if I become permanently unconscious I authorize my agent to direct that life-sustaining treatment be discontinued. (YES) (NO) (Circle your choice and initial beneath it.) 3. I realize that situations could arise in which the only way to allow me to die would be to discontinue artificial feeding (artificial nutrition and hydration). In carrying out any instructions I have given above in #1 or #2 or any instructions I may write in #4 below, I authorize my agent to direct that (circle your choice of (a) or (b) and initial beside it): (a) artificial nutrition and hydration not to be started or, if started, be discontinued, -or- (b) although all other forms of life-sustaining treatment be withdrawn, artificial nutrition and hydration continue to be given to me. (If you fail to complete item 3, your agent will not have the power to direct the withdrawal of artificial nutrition and hydration.) 4. Here you may include any specific desires or limitations you deem appropriate, such as when or what life-sustaining treatment you would want used or withheld, or instructions about refusing any specific types of treatment that are inconsistent with your religious beliefs or unacceptable to you for any other reason. You may leave this question blank if you desire. ______________________________________________________________________ ______________________________________________________________________ ______________________________________________________________________ ______________________________________________________________________ ______________________________________________________________________ ______________________________________________________________________ (attach additional pages as necessary) In the event the person I appoint above is unable, unwilling or unavailable, or ineligible to act as my health care agent, I hereby appoint ________________ of ________________ as alternate agent.

Discrepancies between film and novelEdit
- Film: When asked by a derelict what Gotham looks like from the sky, Batman replies "It looks dirty.".
Novel: When asked the same question, Batman replies "Many lights. Some shadows." - Film: Deadshot flicks a drink pick into a wasp.
Novel: Deadshot flicks a drink pick between his employer's front teeth. - Film: Batman fights Deadshot on a moving train.
Novel: Batman fights Deadshot in an abandoned warehouse. - Film: Crispus Allen is partnered with Anna Ramirez.
Novel: Crispus is partnered with Renee Montoya. The change was made because the character's betrayal was already planned and the film makers did not want to corrupt the character of Renee Montoya. - Killer Croc's capture was never depicted or mentioned. Whereas in the novel Croc's capture is depicted in between the flashbacks from Working Through Pain.
Batman: Gotham Knight is available on both single and two-disc editions. The cover of the single disc includes a shot of Batman running from the style of the Deadshot segment, while the two-disc and Blu-ray editions include a Batman in the foreground and another Batman from the background. Both from the Deadshot segment also. All the editions were released on July 8th, 2008.
The special features range from a documentary covering the well-know Batman characters, an audio commentary, a chronology on Batman creator Bob Kane, followed by bonus episodes from the classic Batman: The Animated Series and a sneak peek at the next movie of the DC Universe Original Animated Movies line: Wonder Woman.
A novelization was released, also titled Batman: Gotham Knight.

BS with Major in Accounting
A Degree That Really Adds Up
Accounting is often referred to as "the 360-degrees of freedom" degree because it's got so many career applications—from financial budgeting to IRS enforcement to auditing and beyond. The increasing complexity of today's corporate environment and financial markets presents accountants with a constant challenge—to provide accurate, transparent, understandable financial information and advice to managers and investors. At Michigan Tech, you'll gain the advanced accounting knowledge to be able to tackle this challenge head on.
Career Pathways
The US Department of Labor Statistics expects career opportunities in accounting to grow up to 26 percent by 2014—on top of the multitude of positions and applications already available to graduates in this field.

30sec Tip: Why You Should Be Likable?
Click on the image to download a wallpaper sized 30 Second Tip!
Be likable. People who are liked have the wind at their backs. So be liked.
Featured photo credit: Running woman via ShutterstockThere are so many things in your life that you want to get better at, but for some reason you keep falling short of your own (an other's) expectations. Why is that?
The problem is that we tend to try to better ourselves all at once, rather than concentrate on one important thing at a time, allowing ourselves to build up momentum over months and years. One day at a time turns into a lifetime of change and getting better. We can eventually become a better overall person if we have a day to day plan and stick to it.
Here is how to better yourself, one day at a time.

Former GUNS N' ROSES bassist Duff McKagan joined the band's current lineup on stage earlier tonight (Thursday, October 14) at London, England's O2 arena to perform four songs: "You Could Be Mine", "Nice Boys" (ROSE TATTOO cover), "Knockin' On Heaven's Door" (BOB DYLAN cover) and "Patience". This marked the first time since 1993 that McKagan and singer Axl Rose shared a concert stage.
The first photos of this historic event can be found below (all pictures courtesy of GUNS N' ROSES and Sebastian Bach via Twitter). Also available is low-quality fan-filmed video footage of the reunion. The band's setlist was as follows: 01. Intro02. Chinese Democracy
03. It's So Easy
04. Mr. Brownstone
05. Sorry
06. Shackler's Revenge
07. Richard Fortus Solo
08. Live And Let Die
09. Instrumental Jam
10. This I Love
11. Better
12. Rocket Queen
13. Dizzy Reed Solo
14. Street Of Dreams
15. You Could Be Mine (w/ Duff McKagan on bass)
16. The Ballad Of Death
17. Sweet Child O'Mine
18. Another Brick In The Wall (Part II)
19. Axl Piano Solo
20. November Rain
21. Bumblefoot Solo
23. Nice Boys (w/ Duff McKagan on guitar)
24. Knocking On Heaven's Door (w/ Duff McKagan on guitar)
25. Nightrain Encore: 26. Don't Cry
27. Madagascar
28. Patience (w/ Duff McKagan on tambourine)
29. Whole Lotta Rosie
30. Waiting On A Friend (jam)
31. Paradise City According to Rock Radio, Rose claimed tonight's reunion came about by accident because he and McKagan happened to be staying at the same hotel. He told the crowd: "There was this guy at the end of my hallway playing all this loud music and shit. What the fuck? Oh — it's Duff!" Original GN'R guitarist Izzy Stradlin jammed with the current version of GUNS N' ROSES at a number of shows in 2006. In a 2009 interview with AskMen.com, Duff was asked what he thought of GUNS N' ROSES' latest album, "Chinese Democracy", which was released in November 2008 as a Best Buy exclusive, 17 years after the last all-original GUNS sets, "Use Your Illusion I" and "II". "It's funny; so many people have asked me that question and I gotta figure out why people think my opinion matters," Duff replied. "I think Axl did a great job on that record and other than that, the songs and the band are a completely different thing, so for me to really comment on the band, I might as well be commenting on the new SLIPKNOT record. It's that far removed from me." He continued, "We [GUNS] made our last record in '92 or '93 or something — that was 16 years ago. That was a lifetime ago for me. I was still using and stuff back then. So, that's how long ago it was for me." He then added, "It's ['Chinese Democracy'] great. There are songs on it that I like and there are songs on it that I don't like, just like any other record." During a 2009 interview with Billboard, Rose insisted that he will never share a stage with former GN'R guitarist Slash again. "One of the two of us will die before a reunion," Rose said. "However sad, ugly or unfortunate anyone views it, it is how it is." He also said, "I could see doing a song or so on the side with Izzy or having him out [on tour] again. I'm not so comfortable with doing anything having more than one of the alumni. Maybe something with Duff, but that's it." Last year McKagan told Rolling Stone magazine that he's open to the idea of working with Rose again. "I'm not going to be one of those guys who's like 'fuck that, that'll never happen.' he said. "It could very well happen. I love Axl. We've been through a lot of shit together that nobody can take that away from us." In addition to Rose, the current lineup of GUNS N' ROSES includes guitarists DJ Ashba, Ron Thal and Richard Fortus, bassist Tommy Stinson, keyboardists Dizzy Reed and Chris Pitman and drummer Frank Ferrer. "Chinese Democracy" was a commercial disappointment, selling less than one million copies in the U.S. (according to Nielsen SoundScan) despite the long wait.

FIB-SIMS analysis of an aluminum alloy/SiC metal matrix composite
Silk, Jonathan R., Dashwood, R. J. and Charter, R. J.. (2011) FIB-SIMS analysis of an aluminum alloy/SiC metal matrix composite. Surface and Interface Analysis, Vol.43 (No.1-2). pp. 488-491. ISSN 0142-2421

Polished surfaces of a fine-grained aluminum, silicon carbide metal matrix composite (MMC) were imaged using the ion-induced secondary electron emission in a FIB ion microscope. In these images a dispersion of particles with a distinct bright contrast are seen to be mainly located at the matrix aluminum grain/subgrain boundaries, and at the matrix/reinforcement interface. The particles range in size from 20 to 200 nm. FIB-SIMS was used to identify the composition of these particles as magnesium and oxygen-rich, and so, to corroborate SEM/EDS analyses. Analysis of the FIB images of the polished section showed that the areal density of the particles with distinct bright contrast was consistent with a composition of MgAl2O4.

The mapping of brain sources into the scalp electroencephalogram (EEG) depends on volume conduction properties of the head and on an electrode montage involving a reference. Mathematically, this source mapping (SM) is fully determined by an observation function (OF) matrix. This paper analyses the OF-matrix for a generation model for the desynchronized spontaneous EEG. The model involves a four-shell spherical volume conductor containing dipolar sources that are mutually uncorrelated so as to reflect the desynchronized EEG. The reference is optimized in order to minimize the impact in the SM of the sources located distant from the electrodes. The resulting reference is called the localized reference (LR). The OF-matrix is analyzed in terms of the relative power contribution of the sources and the cross-channel correlation coefficient for five existing references as well as for the LR. It is found that the Hjorth Laplacian reference is a fair approximation of the LR, and thus is close to optimum for practical intents and purposes. The other references have a significantly poorer performance. Furthermore, the OF-matrix is analyzed for limits to the spatial resolution for the EEG. These are estimated to be around 2 cm.

The Chinese empire was huge. The Company wanted to buy silk and sell English goods direct to the millions of Chinese but the country was largely closed to foreigners.
In 1644 Manchu invaders from beyond the Great Wall captured Peking and established the Ching dynasty (which would last until 1911).
The displaced Ming Emperor had a strong ally in the great pirate fleet commander Cheng Cheng-kung - the legendary Koxinga. Koxinga held out against the Ching forces in the region around Amoy before transferring to Taiwan.
The war effort needed guns, which the English could supply, so in 1670 his son invited the East India Company to trade.

Comments about Disney Pixar Toy Story Costume - Woody:
This is a very cute Woody outfit. I got a big 4 months old son so the 12-18 months is too small for him. I'm gonna ask my mom-in-law to alternate the outfit. I like it too much to send it back. I wish they'd carry a larger size.

Comments about Disney Pixar Toy Story Costume - Woody:
This was the only infants Woody costume I could find, so I ordered it. Thank you to the other review who stated that they run small, because my son will be 7 months old when he wears this for Halloween and it's almost the perfect size for him, and he is not a big baby (27 inches tall and 16 lbs 4 oz right now). It is absolutely adorable on him, I can't wait to show him off on Halloween!

Hughes, Jock
Abstract | Seven languages of the Upper Digul River in east Papua were surveyed, with resulting wordlists and information on language vitality and attitudes. The languages are compared for lexical similarity using software WordSurv and Blair's phoneme-counting methods for analysis. The survey data was gathered in two villages, one of which was home to none of the speakers. Included in this report are locations of villages, as well as information on health care, education, and communication. |

text: This course teaches attendees how to think as contractors do by interpreting the design in terms of cost. Step-by-step instruction and practice problems provide skill and confidence in identifying and tracking the key cost drivers - material, labor, equipment, staging, and subcontracts - for each specific task on any project. Attendees are given the most detailed, time-tested methodology for accurately "pricing" each of these variables, their impact on each other and on total cost. As part of the process, they learn optimal use of Means cost data. Upon completion, attendees will understand direct and indirect costs and have the basis for accurate job cost accounting and change order management.
