A MAN who discovered a 48-year-old bar of Kendal Mint Cake in his loft believes it may be the oldest-surviving bar of the famous confectionery.
Peter Truelove, 68, of Windermere, bought the bar of Robert Wiper's Original Mint Cake when he and a friend visited Kendal as 21-year-olds in 1964.
The pair were on a 'boy's adventure' which took them from their homes in Kent to John O'Groats, the most northerly point on the Scottish mainland.
"We travelled the distance in an Austin 7 and it took us a week," said Mr Truelove, of Hill Top. "The car only did 35mph at best and it was blizzard weather – the snow was coming into the car.
"We called at Kendal on the way back and we'd heard about the mint cake, so when we saw some we thought we'd buy a bar."
Mr Truelove said he was not sure why he had kept the bar in a box in his loft.
"It was on a shelf as a memento of the trip but it's been in the loft since we moved to Windermere 16 years ago," he said. The bar is still in reasonable condition although some of the sugar is seeping through the wrapping.
Although the original Wipers recipe is still used, the company was sold to Romneys in 1987.
Managing director John Barron said: "We have been making it all these years and I don't think we have any that old – it's impressive.
"It wouldn't do him any harm to eat it now but I don't expect it would taste very nice."
Mr Truelove said what was also interesting to discover was the journal he wrote while travelling, which documented the stop-off in Kendal. He said: "I had to record everything we spent because my friend and I were splitting the cost of the trip. It's funny now to look back and see that someone offered to sell us a car engine and gear box for £2.50, and that 15 litres of petrol was 60p.
"Unfortunately, the price of the mint cake wasn't included, although I did write that we'd visited and purchased it."
A BLAZE of colour filled the heavens above Kendal Castle as scores of unusually-shaped kites were flown during a two-day festival.
Hundreds of people turned out to see the skies above the central town landmark transformed into a kaleidoscope of colour.
The free event saw kites of all descriptions performing aerial acrobatics. There was a 16ft hippopotamus, flying dogs, super-sized fish and many more, all organised by SmileFactor10 and Kendal United Junior Football Club.
Event organiser Craig Harby, who attends kite festivals regularly, said he wanted to bring the joys of the event to his home town.
"I do it for smiles. If you get someone looking at your kite and smiling then that's why you do it really," said Mr Harby. "It's one of those things you either enjoy or not. It's a peaceful thing flying a kite."
Emma Whitanney, of Windermere, who was at the event with her eight-year-old son, Isaac, said: "It's fab for the area to have something like this. It's a really fun family day out."
There was also a Kendal United two-day car boot sale where a selection of kites, air toys, novelties and balloons were available to buy and fly.
Other activities included a bouncy castle, face painting, children's play area and a BMX track.
Proceeds from the kite extravaganza will go towards Kendal's Junior Football Club.
Anyone with photographs from the day should send them to email@example.com for a chance of winning a seven-foot delta flow tail kite.

AYDEN — Two polar opposite offenses squared off Friday night with a chance to move on to the second round of the NCHSAA 2A state playoffs — an aerial attack by Fairmont that racked up 422 yards through the air and Ayden-Grifton's ground game, which ran the ball 59 times for 313 yards.
But it was two completions turned by AG quarterback Hunter Cannon on just three passing attempts on the night — both to junior Jake Wright — that helped the surging Chargers advance to host Edenton Holmes next week with a 41-28 victory.
AG's record is now 6-6 overall.
"When you put nine (defenders) in the box, eventually you're going to have to put it out there," Chargers coach Paul Cornwell said. "(Wright) is a great receiver and (Cannon) did a great job getting the ball to him."
After holding the Tornadoes to four-and-out on their first two series — drives that only saw a single Fairmont completion — the Chargers were able to take advantage of a short field following a botched handle, as the visitors were attempting to punt.
R.J. Nelson needed just three plays from 15 yards out to give the Chargers a short-lived lead.
Short-lived because on the Tornadoes' first drive after giving up the score, Jarrod Neal connected with Shemar Barfield for a 65-yard touchdown. The two-point conversion by Quenton Walker would give Fairmont it's only lead of the night.
The two teams would trade touchdowns in the second quarter, including Wright's first touchdown from 34 yards out. Fairmont would be unable to convert its PAT attempt to make the game 14-all at the half.
Out of the second half gate, Nelson ran for scores of eight and 72 yards to put the Chargers up by 14 with 4:43 remaining in the third quarter.
But Fairmont (8-4), which lived and died by the big play Friday night, would not give up quietly. The Tornado's Shyheim Hines would return the ensuing kickoff 91 yards to pull within six points.
On the following AG possession, the Chargers' Josh Walston would pin Fairmont inside its own 1-yard line. With 99 yards to tie the game up, Neal, who passed 38 times for 422 yards (27 completions) would make his only mistake of the night. An underthrown ball, thrown from the Tornado end zone, was picked off by Drew Turnage.
"You know, we're probably playing on of the best passing teams in the state and it's obvious they're pretty good (through the air)," Cornwell said. "They're team is averaging 40 or 50 points a game, I think our defense did some really good things."
Wright's second touchdown grab, a pass slightly over thrown that the tight end was able pull in with a single outstretched hand, quickly followed and helped extend the Charger lead with 13:34 remaining in the game.
A two-yard touchdown by Turnage would give the Chargers their nightly tally of 41 points.
Down three scores, Neal, who accounted for 439 of his team's 460 yards, would lead one final charge driving 71-yards in less than a minute before connecting with Fields for his team's final score of the night.
Ayden-Grifton held Fairmont to just 10 runs for positive yards — five of which were by Neal after being chased from the pocket.
Nelson led all rushers with 277 yards. He has scored eight touchdowns in the Charger's last two games.

Thymoma Center - San Jose, CA

San Jose, California
San Jose was founded on November 29, 1777 as El Pueblo de San Jos? de Guadalupe, the first town in the Spanish colony of Nueva California, which later became Alta California.[5] The city served as a farming community to support Spanish military installations at San Francisco and Monterey. When California gained statehood in 1850, San Jose served as its first capital.[6] After more than 150 years as an agricultural center, San Jose experienced increased demand for housing from soldiers and other veterans returning from World War II, as well as aggressive expansion during the 1950s and 1960s by annexing more land area. By the 1990s, San Jose's location within the booming local technology industry earned the city its nickname Capital of Silicon Valley.

CHARLOTTE (AP) — The Panthers need to avoid another slow start today to have a better chance of upending the unbeaten Atlanta Falcons.
That's something they haven't done this season.
The Panthers haven't shown up ready to play and have allowed opponent to score a touchdown on the opening possession in all three games. The Panthers (1-2) recovered in Week 2 to beat New Orleans, but never led in losses to Tampa Bay and the New York Giants.
Linebacker Thomas Davis said
"We have to understand the situation and know that we need to go out and set the tone early and not try to wait until the second series," said Davis, who's expected to play this week after missing last week's game against the Giants with a hamstring injury. "We have to go out and jump on these guys."
But stopping Matt Ryan and the Falcons won't be easy.
"I think that good execution coming out of the gate," quarterback Matt Ryan said. "I think (offensive coordinator) Dirk Koetter has done a good job of calling the plays and getting us prepared for those situations. That's one thing we've done well. I think there are other areas where we haven't been as efficient as we need to be. I think our focus this week is to try and improve in those other areas."
Poor execution has plagued the Panthers defense all year on opening drives, particularly on third down.
The Panthers allowed the Saints, Bucs and Giants to convert a combined six third-down conversions on opening drives with two of those resulting in touchdown passes to tight ends. Drew Brees hit Jimmy Graham for a 1-yard touchdown pass and Eli Manning found Martellus Bennett for a 14-yard strike.
"Any of those stops on third down allow you get off the field," coach Ron Rivera said. "We have to be better than that — and I'm aware of that. It happened the other day and I made a comment about it. Hopefully we're paying attention and we learn from those situations."
Third down hasn't been a problem for the Falcons.
They haven't even needed to execute a third down on their opening possessions this season.
"Dirk always says that if stay out of third downs, then you don't have to complete them," Falcons wide receiver Roddy White said. "Just staying ahead of the chains. I think we're doing a good job of play-calling on first and second down, and Dirk's doing a heck of a job just being aggressive, getting us chunks down the field. I think every time we get chunks down the field and get some explosives on those drives, we're going down and scoring points."
Panthers linebacker James Anderson believes
"It's just little things here or there,"
In the first two games, the Panthers were able to bounce back after surrendering touchdowns on the opening drive.
But last week they never found a rhythm against the Super Bowl champion Giants.
However, Rivera doesn't expect any changes to the starting lineup.
"We're staying with who we got," Rivera said.
Rivera would like to see his defensive backs play a little tighter at the line of scrimmage and not so soft like they did against the Giants.
And for the second time this season the Panthers failed to create a turnover, something they had stressed repeatedly in training camp.
"We've got to make sure we get back to doing what we did well the first two weeks, and that mean's playing attack-style football and getting after the football as much as we can," said Panthers defensive coordinator Sean McDermott. "We didn't get any turnovers last week, and they got five. That's the difference right there."

BTOP in Action
In a world where technology is key to creating opportunities, public computer centers are significant community assets. The Colorado State Library, operating under the Colorado Board of Education, is creating a culture of technology engagement through its public computer center project, Bridging the Great Digital Divide. The project is designed to improve lives by providing computers, training, and public awareness campaigns in 81 Colorado communities.
Since receiving its $2.3 million BTOP grant, and an additional $1 million from the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation and local libraries, the project has distributed more than $1 million to local libraries and the Southern Ute and Ute Mountain Ute tribes, which has helped them purchase 681 laptops, 487 computers, and 59 tablet computers for community use and training efforts. Two library systems in High Plains and Lamar also hired three new staff to lead public training classes.
In April 2011, libraries began offering training on topics, such as basic computer skills, job skills, and Internet use. In the first three months, Colorado public computer centers offered more than 260 training classes to nearly 3,000 people. Local community partners also are working with the libraries to host training topics including workforce skills, business 2.0 development, and new immigrant literacy. In addition, the State Library staff developed a technology boot camp and curriculum to help library staff and community volunteers become more proficient in technology.
To further the goal of increasing broadband adoption, the State Library also developed a statewide public awareness campaign to encourage community members to visit the centers, take training classes, and adopt broadband. Libraries throughout the state will participate in the campaign by hosting local launch events with open houses and guest speakers. Twenty-seven public computer centers held events from April through June 2011, and additional events are planned for the coming months. The State Library staff also developed nationally recognized tools for gathering local statistics to evaluate the effectiveness of training and outreach.
Through the Bridging the Great Digital Divide project, Coloradoans will learn skills, access online education and health information and be able to participate more fully in the digital economy. Community agencies also can now offer training in ways they were not able to do so before, allowing citizens in remote parts of the state to stay connected with regional resources, such as workforce centers, small business development offices, and regional agricultural offices. Resources and opportunities provided by the Colorado State Library's project can have a lasting impact on communities across the state.

On December 13, 2010, Columbia County initiated construction on 205 miles of fiber-optic network at a groundbreaking ceremony near the Columbia County Library in Evans, Ga. This library was the first Internet access point for the new broadband network and houses network servers.
Upon completion, Columbia County had connected nearly 100 community anchor institutions to its 205-mile, county-wide fiber middle mile network. The county improved access to healthcare, public safety, and government facilities, and provided dozens of free Wi-Fi hotspots to community locations, including parks, libraries, and community centers. The county constructed seven wireless towers (five are BTOP-funded) to improve wireless communications capabilities throughout the region.
One of the primary goals of the network was to enhance public safety communications in the county. Using the new towers, the county connected more than 30 public safety entities and also connected traffic devices, including stop lights, surveillance equipment, and notification boards, to the statewide Intelligent Transportation System (ITS) to improve public safety and traffic flow along the major transportation corridors. The first entity to benefit from the high-speed access was the Sheriff's Office. "This is 10 years in the making. This is huge…No matter where they are, with this portable radio, they've got coverage…It's like going from a tin can and string to a real radio," Sheriff Clay Whittle said.
Com Net's GigE PLUS Availability Coalition project deployed more than 570 miles of new fiber through June 2013. These new miles are part of Com Net's plans to install approximately 650 miles of high-capacity fiber-optic cable across 28 counties in western Ohio. Thirty workers are constructing the network that is expected to spur more affordable high-speed broadband access for approximately 737,000 households,165,000 businesses, and 2,900 institutions.
Underground construction started in the Wayne Trace Local School District, which includes a high school and two elementary schools. The area has some level of existing wireless Internet currently, but storms and high winds regularly knock out the service. Com Net's underground broadband network will provide steady, reliable Internet service to these schools as well as the residents in this district.
Com Net's network will also enable more than 300 public safety agencies to upgrade their radio towers and public safety answering points from T-1 lines to speeds of up to 10 gigabits per second (Gbps), so they can deploy next-generation devices and enhanced 911 capabilities.
Communication Service for the Deaf (CSD) opened its new contact center on December 6, 2010, in Sioux Falls, S.D. This center is supporting a nationwide initiative to provide discounted equipment, high-speed Internet access, and life-skills training to people who are deaf and hard of hearing. Through the center's American-Sign-Language (ASL)-trained staff, individuals who are deaf and hard of hearing will be able to purchase a video-configured Dell 11z notebook and a 3G/4G wireless Internet access plan for $230. The center's website also contains 10 web-based "how to" training videos. Using ASL, the videos teach computer basics, technical troubleshooting solutions, and Internet search tips.
One focus of the center is to increase employment opportunities. The center will host several career training workshops, teaching interviewing skills and job search techniques for people who are deaf and hard of hearing. The center is also creating 60 new positions for ASL-trained professionals, with 40 of those positions already filled by mid-December 2010.
CSD's ultimate goal is to create easier, more effective communications methods for people who are deaf and hard of hearing. CSD anticipates that when the project is complete, nearly 16,000 people nationwide will have access to discounted computers, high-speed broadband, and life skills training.

The program will ultimately reach more than 34,000 low-income individuals and 15,000 households in the school district. As of June 2013, CFY has recorded more than 5,700 new household broadband subscribers.
Connect Arkansas held a variety of digital literacy and workforce development workshops for more than 445 people across the state. These BTOP-funded workshops were created to boost sustainable broadband adoption through a three-pronged approach, which targets low-income youth, student businesses, and healthcare providers. Connect Arkansas partners with several organizations to provide comprehensive training centered on computer basics, online entrepreneurship, and telehealth communication services.
For example, the University of Arkansas at Monticello provides a three-day technology course for students between kindergarten and the eighth grade, which is sponsored by Connect Arkansas. The course teaches students basic computer skills and Internet fundamentals. The course also educates students on productivity software they can use for homework, reports, and other school-related activities. As an added incentive, participating students who complete the course receive a free refurbished computer through Connect Arkansas. As of October 2011, the University has distributed approximately 130 personal computers.
To increase broadband adoption among teenagers, Connect Arkansas hosts an entrepreneurship training class using in-house resources. During the class, students learn business basics, ecommerce, website development skills, and how to market a business online. Participating students also create a prototype business website as their final project, allowing them to practice their newly acquired business techniques and web design skills. As of October 2011, more than 178 students have participated in this class.
Connect Arkansas also increases broadband usage among healthcare professionals. Through the University of Arkansas Medical Sciences (UAMS), Connect Arkansas educates medical professionals on using broadband and video conferencing equipment to conduct distance learning and patient visits. These classes complement UAMS's BTOP project, which is increasing broadband capacity and installing video conferencing equipment at 474 healthcare, medical offices, and research facilities in Arkansas.
Through these classes, Connect Arkansas and its partners have been able to create 10 instructor positions. Funded by BTOP, these employees are responsible for administering these training classes across 57 Arkansas counties.

MyWay Village opened computer learning centers in 16 senior citizen housing communities across Northern Illinois after receiving BTOP funds. These centers are supporting a statewide initiative to provide affordable Internet and computer skills training to low-income seniors. Besides access to computer labs, residents also receive free Internet service in their apartments and computer training classes. Residents can attend classes on a variety of topics including computer basics, Internet fundamentals, advanced Internet searching techniques, open office software, and webpage design. As an added incentive, individuals who complete 12 hours of training receive a free personal computer.
BTOP funds have allowed the project to create 24 new jobs. Hired as Computer Program Managers, new staff members manage the computer labs and provide instruction for training classes. Additionally, the funds have provided residents with new computers, cameras, scanners, and printers.
The impact of the project can be felt across multiple housing communities. A total of 690 building tenants have enrolled in training classes, with many more scheduled to register. The organization, which is in the process of changing its name to ConnectedLiving, Inc., has helped residents use digital technology to connect with family members and access health information online. The impact of the project is evident at The Grundy Housing Authority, where BTOP funds have drastically changed the lives of the community residents. To experience this impact up close, watch Grundy Housing Authority's video.

By late December 2011, Connected Tennessee's Computers 4 Kids: Preparing Tennessee's Next Generation for Success program distributed approximately 1,400 computers to 76 Boys & Girls Clubs (BGCs) in Tennessee and nine regional sectors of the Department of Children's Services (DCS), the state's child welfare agency. These computers are part of the project's effort to provide computers and training to more than 60,000 disadvantaged youth across the state.
Connected Tennessee's ultimate goal is to help children with limited access to broadband develop the skills needed for today's economy. In addition to new workstations, Computers 4 Kids also provides digital literacy classes on a wide variety of subjects, including computer basics, web design, digital photography, digital moviemaking, animation, game design, and web safety. Through this potent combination of computer resources, academic support programs, and broadband awareness, Computer 4 Kids is seeing a drastic increase in home broadband adoption among low-income and minority families.

Show Image"Who was that shape in the shadows? Whose is that face in the mask?"Ladies and Gentlemen!I am happy to finally announce a project of mine in co-operation with PrinsValium of the Symmetric Stagger Board fame.For a long time I have lusted after the Korean custom keyboards, jealous of the ability to use a full set of Cherry double shot and dye sub keycaps without substitutes!You see, I never cared about their CNC carved Alumin(i)um bodies and I spoke about that on a few occasion. The holy grail, for me, are the keycaps.Show ImageI reached out to PrinsValium, told him my story and asked if he was interested. Luckily, he shares my views on this and he agreed to [strike]help me out[/strike] do all the work for me.Now, before you fall asleep I'll go ahead and tell you what you probably have already guessed from the story above:We are making a PCB with a programmable controller and a mounting plate, which will enable every Filco tenkeyless user to use a full set of good old Cherry keycaps!Wait, what? Just for the Filco tenkeyless? Why?It's practically impossible to make one PCB compatible with all the keyboard bodies out there, so we went with this one for a few reasons:1. The Filco is probably the most popular tenkeyless brand around here.2. The keyboard body on the Filco is in my opinion beautiful, I actually think it looks better than the Korean custom Alumin(i)um bodies.3. It costs a lot to make low volumes of keyboard bodies, way more than a whole Filco tenkeyless.4. I already own one! Yes, the privilege of being project lead.If you still don't have a good idea what it would look like, it's basically the 86U layout!Show ImageWe would need 1-sized windows keycaps for in between CTRL and ALT, but luckily there are cheap Cherry boards with just the right keycaps available.
Why "Phantom"?It's a Phantom behind the Filco mask!What IS the Phantom?A "unisex" PCB (fits ANSI and ISO), the Teensy controller and a matching mounting plate.It fits the Filco tenkeyless and most likely the PLU ML-87(the insides of the case are identical to the Filco).I don't know how to solder, am I SOL?If you don't want to or can't do soldering, you can contact alaricljs (located in the USA) or Half-Saint (located in Europe). They are offering their soldering service. You will have to order parts from this group buy and tell us to ship the parts to one of them. You will need to work out the cost and shipping arrangement with them directly.Why the Filco tenkeyless/PLU ML-87 and not another brand?1. Filco are probably the most popular around geekhack of all the tenkeyless keyboards.2. Both of those are compatible with each other, thus increasing the market size.3. I already own one :PIs this compatible with the Filco tenkeyless gen1 AND gen2?Yes.Can I use ALL of the Cherry doubleshots/dye-subs with the Phantom? Meaning the entire bottom row with the 7-sized spacebar and the off-center capslock?YES! This is the main reason we are doing this.But I really like the modern layout my Filco has, can I keep it the way it was?Sure, PCB is fully compatible with both choices.What layouts are supported by the PCB?ANSI and ISO in standard Filco or oldschool Cherry layout.Also there is support for the shorter shift + FN key, like on the HHKB!Another option that is available is the UNIX layout.Can I use it to convert my ANSI Filco tenkeyless to ISO?Yes, and from ISO to ANSI as well!Can I re-use my old Filco mounting plate if I just want PCB with the reprogrammable controller?Yes.Do I have to buy the switches myself?Not if you reuse the old ones from the Filco.Can I use PCB mounting (without the mounting plate)?No, there are no holes on the PCB that are needed for PCB mounting. There were good design reasons to leave them out, sorry.What stabilizers are supported by the mounting plate?Costar(Filco) and Cherry stabilizers.We still have to look if we can cram both of them on one mounting plate.Will there be just one mounting plate?No. Every layout will probably get a matching mounting plate.What will the PCB look like?It will have an awesome black finish on both sides with white silkscreen markings for easier switch mounting. The Phantom logo and text will be embedded on the copper layer like on the Filco gen2.What will the mounting plate look like?Bare metal which you can spray-paint as you want and if you want :)Update history:---

I will have to check with BiNi and 7bit. I think BiNi shipped to overseas before. Right now I think stabilizers would not be included as you can either reuse your Filco parts or source from somewhere else. I think in the original discussion thread it was mentioned there where to get stabilizers. We will dig that out and include the information in the first post.
I think we should figure out the shipping costs and ship from wherever it is cheaper.
I am interested in this but too bad I have no knowledge or tools to solder all the parts together ;(Any plans on a extra fee for putting it all together? Or am I better off trying to find and commission someone to do it?
We will find a solution for that.
I would be interested in this too if this is the case! I'm crazy about those key caps.
Hmm...maybe we should also send a pm to Filco and see if we can get some empty shells from them.

|Fresh, in season corn is so delicious, why not try it a variety of ways?
Fresh on the cob sweet corn is still tasting pretty good down south so I'm gonna get my fill while it's at its peak flavor, even though it's pretty much available year round these days. Me, I just love the stuff, though honestly, I don't care much for grilled corn - meaning corn that has been fully husked and then charred on the grill. I know a lot of folks do, but to me, corn cooks so quickly that I find that the biggest mistake many people make with corn on the cob is frankly just over-cooking it. With char-grilled corn, there is such a very fine line between a cob that is cooked just right and one that is dry and over-cooked, that when I do corn on the cob on the grill, I guess I do more of a steamed corn - allowing the cleaned corn to steam inside the protection of the husks.
My preference though? Simple, and pure, boiled corn on the cob, done just right and only long enough to cook the kernels yet leave them crunchy, with a generous sprinkling of salt, and butter. Butter. Now that's where you can really mess around with some flavor combinations.
If you think this sounds yummy, I'd sure ♥ it if you'd click to pin it, tweet it, stumble it, or share it on Facebook to help spread the word - thanks!
Share Tweet
➵Boiled Corn
Husk and clean corn of silks. Fill a large pot with a couple quarts of water, enough to well cover. Add 1 to 3 tablespoons of sugar, depending on the number of ears you're boiling - never add salt! Salt will toughen the corn, so wait to salt it after you have cooked it. Bring water to a boil, drop in the corn and once it comes back to a boil, turn down to a gentle boil let it boil only for about 10 to 15 minutes.
Really Sinful Milk Boiled Corn
Husk and clean 12 ears of corn of silks. Fill a large pot with 2 quarts of water and 2 quarts of whole milk. Add to that 1 cup (1/2 pound) of butter and 2 tablespoons of sugar. Bring to a boil, drop in the corn and once it comes back to a boil, turn down to a gentle boil let it boil only for about 10 to 15 minutes. Remove pot from heat. The corn can remain in the pot for up to an hour before serving and still taste freshly cooked.
➵Steamed Corn
Husk and clean corn of silks and, if you have a rack that will fit inside a pot, put a couple of inches of water in the bottom of the pot, add 2 to 3 tablespoons of sugar, add the rack and set the ears on top. If you have to stand the ears up, try cutting the wider end of the ear of the corn flat to help it stand up. Put a couple of inches of water in the bottom of a tall lidded pot, add the sugar and stand the ears upright in the pot. If you don't have enough corn to fill the pot, just cut the ears in half. Bring to a boil and let the corn steam, covered, for about 30 minutes.
➵Microwaved Corn
Clean corn and wrap the ears in microwave safe plastic wrap. Microwave on high for about 2 minutes per ear, depending on your microwave.
➵Steamed in the Husk Microwaved Corn
This has got to be hands down the easiest, cleanest way to get a ready to eat piece of corn on the cob. I'm a big fan of boiled or steamed corn and this is now my most favorite way to cook it. Try it - you'll be amazed! Click this link to learn how.
➵Oven Roasted Corn
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Pull back the husks but do not remove them. Remove all of the corn silk and pull the husks back over the corn. Place the corn into a large pot of cold water to soak for at least 30 minutes. Remove and let drain. Place the corn wrapped in the husks directly on the oven rack and bake for about 30 minutes. To serve, pull back the husks and either leave them on to serve as a handle or remove them if preferred.
➵Oven Roasted "No Husk" Corn
Place unshucked corn in a preheated 350 degree F oven for 25-30 minutes. Use pot holders to hold the corn and cut off the larger end. Shake the corn out of the husk and serve.
➵Steamed on the Grill Corn
Pull back the husks but do not remove them. Remove all of the corn silk and pull the husks back over the corn. Place the corn into a large pot of cold water to soak for at least 30 minutes, putting another heavy pot on top to hold them down in the water. Preheat grill to medium high heat and put the corn directly on the heat. Cook for about 12 to 15 minutes or until tender, turning several times. Let cool slightly. Pull back the husks and remove or use as a handle. Spread the compound butter mixture evenly on corn while it is hot and season with salt and pepper to taste. You can also completely clean the corn and wrap it in aluminum foil.
You may also, of course, char-grill corn directly on the heat of the grill.
Flavored butters are so easy to make and make an impression with your guests. Check out some of our Compound Butter Blends!

In the US, we have a culture that encourages independence but are we performing our babies a disservice by isolating them in a car seat carrier or stroller?
Think about what we do when we're holding the baby and walking around. We are bonding through touch, smell, eye contact, and talking. We can talk to them and teach them about the trucks and airplanes, the art work on the walls and flowers or the different colors on the packages at the store. Even when they listen to us talk to a companion or on the phone, they're being exposed to communication. The more you talk with your baby the better. All of this starts with the children as newborns.
What sort of interaction do babies get when they're isolated in a car seat carrier or stroller covered with a blanket or staring at the ceiling?

Late Three Allows Coker to Upset Women's Basketball 68-66; Lemons Leads with Team-High 19
February 20, 2013
HARTSVILLE, S.C. - A Priscilla Fenty three-pointer with 1:25 left in the second-half proved to be the game-winner as host Coker College upset Pfeiffer University 68-66 in Conference Carolinas women's basketball action on Wednesday night. The Cobras improve to 15-10 overall, 11-8 in league play while the Falcons fall to 19-5, 14-5.
Coker had the lead for a majority of the contest on Wednesday as things got interesting over the final five minutes. Trailing 58-57 with 4:17 remaining, Pfeiffer's Christina Harvey converted a three-point play to give the Lady Falcons a two-point, 60-58 lead. After a three from Coker's Angie Lawrence put the Cobras back up one, Jodie Lemons would toss in a layup to give Pfeiffer a 62-61 advantage with 3:32 to play.
Another Lawrence triple would give Coker the lead for good with 3:05 left in the second as the Lady Falcons cut the lead back to one on a pair of Kellie Rhoney free throws with 1:50 remaining. Just 25 seconds later, Fenty would hit the crucial three to help Coker deliver its final dagger of the night.
Autumn Lau led the Cobras and all scorers on the night with 20 points while Lawrence followed with 15. Lemons led the Falcons with 19 points while Harvey posted another double-double with 18 points and 11 rebounds. Harvey, the newest member of Pfeiffer's 1,000-point club, climbed into 12th all-time after her 18 at Coker. Coker shot nearly 50% from the field while limiting the Lady Falcons to 33%. The Cobras would benefit from six blocks and eight steals aiding in the win.
Pfeiffer returns to action on Saturday hosting Converse in Conference Carolinas action at 4:00 p.m. on Saturday afternoon. Live stats/video will be available through http://www.gofalconsports.com.

BAYBORO – The Pamlico Hurricanes were feeling great about their chances to knock off Lejeune and claim first place in the Coastal Plains Conference Friday night.
However, the Devilpups had plans of their own and escaped Bayboro with a baseball-like score of 8-0 for the win.
From the opening kickoff, a game that was expected to light up the scoreboard, did exactly the opposite as both teams failed to score in the first half.
Lejuene had the ball on the 5-yard line when quarterback Daxton Derrick fumbled and Pamlico pounced on it for a touchback in the end zone.
Pamlico never seriously threatened to score in the half, but suffered serious threats to the rest of its season.
Star quarterback Naquan Gibbs and defensive lineman Arthur Randall both were lost for the game due to injury.
"We play really physical and I'm a bit of an old school football coach and we teach the guys to hit hard and they did tonight," Lejeune coach Darryl Schwartz said. "We definitely feel for the Pamlico kids that got hurt."
The Hurricanes also went 1-for-4 on fourth downs in the first half, not helping their cause.
Sophomore wide receiver Josiah Simmons stepped in at quarterback when Gibbs went down.
Simmons fumbled his first two steps, clearly uncomfortable in the position.
One of the miscues, led to a Lejeune safety in the third quarter and the first score of the game.
The Devilpups tacked on six more when Daxton Derrick magically threaded a screen pass through Pamlico defenders to fullback Stephen DiCenso – an illusion Criss Angel would have been proud of.
"It was a crazy play," Schwartz said. "The ball got tipped by one of their guys and Stephen did a great job concentrating and made the best offensive play he has made all year."
Pamlico coach Kevin Yost said things just didn't go his team's way tonight.
"I thought our defense played really well. This team is resilient and I expect them to come back stronger after this. We have to persevere through the adversity."
Yost lauded the play of his seniors and their leadership.
The Hurricanes' defense held Lejeune star running back Jamaz Richardson to 98 yards on 37 carries.
It was DiCenso who made the difference on both ends.
He and Pamlico defensive back Quante Lewis waged a war of who could make the most tackles and matched each other tit-for-tat.
"Quante is pound-for-pound the toughest kid in the conference. He's tough as nails and was for us surely tonight," Yost said. "Number 42 for them (DiCenso), that kid's a stud. He's the real deal and we definitely had some trouble blocking him tonight."
Lejeune improves to 8-1 (3-0 Coastal Plains) and takes a commanding lead in the league standings. Pamlico falls to 5-4 (2-1) with senior night next week versus Jones Senior and a finale at Southside.

Yale Medical Bookstore manager Donald M. Levy was ringing up three hefty surgery texts when he suggested to the customer, a surgical resident, that he take a look at Zollinger's Atlas of Surgical Operations.
Levy wasn't expecting to make a sale: the Atlas costs $199, about what the resident had just spent. Nevertheless, the surgeon opened the book, checked the index and began reading. "This is the operation I had to do yesterday," he said. "If I'd had this book, I would have been better off." He bought the book.
Making that sale wasn't Levy's primary motive. "I don't like being sold stuff, myself," says Levy, a warm, talkative man who remembers customers by name. "There's a subtle difference between offering and selling."
Levy has managed the store at 320 Congress Avenue, which is owned by Barnes & Noble, since it opened in October 2001. He came to the medical school campus from the main Barnes & Noble store on Broadway. But before he got into the book business he spent 10 years as a television reporter in upstate New York, Vermont, Ohio and Kentucky.
A complex career path next led him into journalism education at Syracuse University; graduate studies in religion at Yale, where he received a master's degree in 1992; and a brief tenure running his own company selling out-of-print volumes in philosophy, psychology and religion. When the advent of Internet shopping undermined his sales, he joined Barnes & Noble.
Running the store gives him a chance to draw on his interest in religion and healing. For example, to customers fresh from the doctor's office he can recommend a mass market book on diabetes or heart disease "You're kind of being pastoral." he says. "You show them the section and maybe you ask a few questions."
The bookstore offers shelf after shelf of review books and primers like Clinical Microbiology Made Ridiculously Simple and Laughing Your Way to Passing the Pediatrics Boards. Also for sale are medical accessories and necessities, including one big seller, a $16 dissection kit. It contains tweezers, pick, scalpel, scissors and replacement scalpel blades in a box—"all Larry Rizzolo-approved"—a reference to Lawrence J. Rizzolo, Ph.D., one of the directors of the first-year anatomy course. The store also carries tuning forks, Babinski hammers and stethoscopes.
"I really like selling 'scopes," says Levy after watching a student equivocate between navy and burgundy models. "It's an important purchase, and it's a personal fashion statement."
Levy welcomes ideas from customers. "My customers help me manage my bookstore if I'm careful to listen to them," he says. He started carrying cotton lab coats when customers requested them and he listens to the medical students who compare notes on various texts. "I like it when students come in really informally and pick each other's brains," says Levy. He began the year with four student texts for hematology. Very quickly, students had reached a consensus that Hematology at a Glance was the best.
Even when students are looking for a particular title, Levy likes to suggest alternatives. "They will come in and say 'Do you have that blue book for ICU?' I tell them, 'This is the book they told you to get. It's a great old book, but it's 1998. This is the standard, but I want you to look at this.' " Then he'll show them another guide, published in 2001. "That way," he says, "they feel like they made a much more informed purchase than if they came in like lemmings and bought the one they were told to buy." YM

Blood at the Root
Blood at the Root (Mass Market Paperback)
Hatred and murder breed in dark places ...
In the long shadows of an alley a young man is murdered, savagely kicked and beaten to death by assailant or assailants unknown.

Great to prevent the card itself from tearing. Easy to put on when parking and take off when driving. We have three vehicles it easily moves to the one we are using.

My friend seen mine and wants one.

The new handicap car tags are so flimsy and they told me at the Dept. of Motor Vehicles that the new tags will melt if left in the sun or heat of a vehicle. The new handicap car tags will curl if not in one of these covers and the covers are very sturdy and at the same time light weight. My friend seen mine and now I am ordering one for her.
Sturdy and easy to use!

Makes putting on and taking off the handicap placard so easy to do. You don't have to worry about tearing the handicap placard.

Cheap, but still a waste of money
By Sadie
from Sallisaw, OK
I thought this was a great idea and ordered three. I have used two of the three placard hangers I received. I rated the product one star only because zero was not an option. The first, I found on my dash at the end of the day the first time I used it in my car. The hook had softened in the heat and is bent so that it is no longer usable. Fortunately my employer knows my car and did not ticket me for not displaying my parking permit. We have had excessive heat here, but nothing on the packaging cautioned against use in extreme heat.The second is used occasionally in my parents' car for their handicapped placard. It has NOT been exposed to extreme conditions. Yesterday I picked it up to hang it and the hook portion snapped off in my hand.I won't bother trying the third.
Everything it says it should be

TROY, Idaho -- A North Idaho school district canceled classes Wednesday because of an outbreak of the flu.
More than 300 students and teachers in Troy, Idaho stayed home so schools could be disinfected. Troy is located 13 miles east of Moscow on SH-8.
Superintendent of Schools Christy Castro said more than 10-percent of the district s junior and senior high school students were out sick earlier in the week. 27-percent of the teachers called out sick on Tuesday.
Troy Schools has 315 students total.
District officials asked parents to not allow sick children to go back to school until they had gone through a full 24 hours without a fever reducing medicine.
Maintenance workers spent Wednesday disinfecting desks, chairs, tables, doorknobs, and school busses to help prevent the flu from spreading.
The elementary school was also closed because it is located on the same campus.
District officials expected classes to resume Thursday.

• Black thong panty is one size fits most
Slip the bullet vibrator inside a pocket in the front of the panty while you're getting dressed. The pocket presses it against your clit and lips for super-charged stimulation. The controller looks like a black opal ring; just press the faux stone to turn it on and off and change vibration modes. This lets your lover discreetly tease you at random times all night long – whether you're at dinner, dancing in a club or just watching a movie in a crowded theater. You'll never knew when he's going to hit the button and drive you wild with powerful vibrations. And you have to play it like everything's normal or risk embarrassing yourself and ending up on YouTube. The two of you can play this little game for hours, and by the end of it you'll be ready to jump his bones in the parking lot!
You can experiment with the vibrator's 10 different speeds and patterns as long as it takes to find the perfect combination that just "melts" your lover! The controller works up to 50 feet away so you can tease her without her even knowing you're nearby!
The bullet vibrator is waterproof so you can use it while your partner takes a shower. The controller ring is not waterproof so keep it dry.
The panty features a black lace front and a thong back. The vibrator pocket is hidden in the front to rub against her clit and lips. The sides of the panty tie together to fit a wide range of body types and sizes. The panty is made from nylon and spandex.
The bullet vibrator itself measures 0.75 inches across at its widest point and 2.25 inches long, insertable. There is a short retrieval cord so you can easily remove it afterwards. The bullet and ring are made from plastic. The bullet comes with a special powder coating that makes it feel softer and smoother. It uses 3 LR44 watch batteries, included.
Adam & Eve recommends the Screaming O Master Ring, Bullet & Panty Set for women and couples who enjoy naughty thrills in public.
The bullet vibrator is compatible with water-based and silicone-based sex lubes. When you're finished playing with the set, wash the wireless vibrator in warm, soapy water and rinse it clean. Store everything in a discreet location with the rest of your sex toy collection.

HR shuffle changes how agencies work with OPM
Tuesday - 1/29/2013, 9:05pm EST
When agency human-resources officials have questions about pay, leave or other workforce policies, they typically turn to the Office of Personnel Management's stable of internal human capital officers. The HCOs act as OPM ambassadors to individual agencies and provide advice and guidance on particular policies.
But going forward, OPM is phasing out the HCO role and agencies will instead work through specific OPM policy offices to get their questions answered, according to a Jan. 25 memo from OPM Associate Director of Employee Services Angela Bailey.
"This will not only provide you a direct line for guidance on employment programs, policy advisories and approvals, and technical assistance, it will also expand your opportunity to share ideas on policy, solutions and practices directly with our policy staff who deal intimately with these issues," Bailey said in the memo, which was addressed to agency chief human capital officers.
The HCOs, meanwhile, will transition to a new role — "HR strategists" — to develop more innovative workforce policies and pilot projects.
"The HCOs will shift their focus from servicing a specific list of agencies, to driving innovative new practices across government through pilot projects that address the administration's most critical priorities ... OPM is asking these HR professionals to partner with you to design, implement and assess pilot projects in areas such as skills gap closure, workforce restructuring, and other priority areas of HR," Bailey wrote in the memo.
The shuffle is part of a broader revamp of OPM's HR policy shop. Among the biggest changes is the creation of the Center for Strategic Workforce Planning.
The new office, situated within OPM's Employee Services organization, will focus on fostering innovation in federal workforce policies and plotting future HR trends.
The new workforce center will be led by Sydney Smith-Heimbrock, who is also the dean of OPM's HR University and the executive director of its Innovation Lab.

The Shaky Benefits of Opening An Individual Retirement Account When Young
The traditional thinking in planning for retirement is that after you get your degree you begin a career and open an Individual Retirement Account (IRA) so that when you are retired, you are not dependent on Social Security. Over the past decades, reality has shown that times have truly changed. The recent global economic crisis hit retirement accounts hard, reducing some by 50-percent of their value. It seems like the benefits of opening an IRA account early are not as rock solid as they used to be. Gold ira rollover is here to help you out.
Just because nothing is as reliable as it was before doesn't mean that you can do away with opening a retirement account. The benefits far outweigh the risks, but it is important to understand why an IRA account can be impacted by an economic recession. They are not savings accounts, but investment accounts and subject to the rise and falls of the market.
When you contribute money into the account, the manager distributes it to purchase investments that meet deduction standards. They can include stocks and bonds, but not physical assets or life insurance. The money than earns according to the success of the investment. You can also lose part of your contribution should the investment go sour.
An important thing to consider is the amount of contribution you make into your IRA when you are young. When you are young, while you do not have many bills, you also do not have as reliable a source of income. As someone starting out you may be looking at beginning a family and purchasing a home. All of these purchases require cash on hand. You should think through how much money you can realistically afford to put away and not be able to access without a penalty.
One thing to consider, when thinking about your contribution amount, is that after the age of 50, you are allowed to contribute more to an Individual Retirement Account. This "perk" is referred to as a catch-up amount as the IRS recognizes that not everyone can start contributing the full amount from an early age. By planning for a $1,000 less contribution when you are younger, with the expectation that you will contribute that much more after 50, you can balance out the amounts so as not to leave yourself without funds. Planning is the key to providing a good retirement, making sure you are planning for multiple streams of retirement income and not just one will make sure your money is there when you need it.

"Why do you think I believe in something that I don't even understand (yet)?"
Because that's what you've been saying over and over again: Consciousness merely emerges from the physical world. This means two things: 1. It is a property of the physical world and 2. It depends on the physical world.
S=All states of consciousness merely emerge from the physical world. That is your reductionist statement.
Since you believe in S and a belief is a state of consciousness P, the statement S corresponds to a state of consiousness P, P(S)
Consequently, you must also believe P(S); since belief is a state of consciousnessP, the statement P(S) corresponds to a state of sonsciousness PP(S).
Consequently, you must also believe PP(S); since this belief is a state of consciousness P, the statement PP(S) corresponds to a state of consciousness PPP(S)....
I still don't understand. But lets assume you're right. Then…
If you don't believe that consciousness is reducible to physical properties, then what rival theory do you believe? Where does consciousness come from?

YouTube video captured a massive mudslide that derailed a train in Everett Monday.
John Hill just happened to have his cell phone camera out when the mudslide knocked the train off the tracks Monday.
The slide came rolling down a 100-ft. slope, derailing seven train cars that were carrying various types of freight, including small packages of disinfectant and chemicals used in cleaning supplies and fertilizer.
No one was hurt and a hazardous materials team determined there was no threat to the environment or public health.
The tracks were expected to remain closed for freight trains at least until Tuesday, and Amtrak and Sound Transit Sounder passenger train serve between Seattle and Everett has been canceled through Wednesday.
