My American Bulldog knew something was up before we did! Started growling at SO whenever he touched me or tried to kiss me. She seems to think that this baby is hers. If I tell her "where's your sissy" she immediately bops my belly with her nose, then mashes her ear up to my belly to hear the heartbeat. She's not aggressive by any means, but as of April, anybody who walks past gets the big girl bark, even people I know. Can't wait for Rigby to meet her 'sissy'.

Slow cookers may be slow, but their virtue lies in having a dinner entree ready when we arrive home from work. What I began to wonder was, during the process of getting everything ready for the slow cooker was when does anyone have the time to do what I was doing; certainly not at 4:30 in the morning before heading off to the office? My advice, prep the ingredients the night before and refrigerate them; just don't put a crock from the refrigerator right to the cooker; let it come to room temperature first.
I've loved pasta since my first serving of mac and cheese.
My love affair has been on hold for a bit since my path for the past three months has been avoiding sugars and refined carbs and ... well ... macaroni's a refined carb.
Of course, that's not a surprise. Almost 20 years ago Molly O'Neill wrote "Bye-bye, pasta. It's been fun," in The New York Times. As she sadly waved goodbye, she explained that even though a calorie is a calorie, if you are pre-diabetic (which in 2012 meant 86 million Americans age 20 and older), your body handles refined carbs by efficiently processing them into fat for a future famine.
"Sugar and me, we go way back. I love sugar. LOOOOVVVVVE it. I love everything about it: how it makes little occasions special and special occasions fabulous. How it performs hot bubbling magic on sour fruits, like rhubarb and gooseberries, to make the most succulent and mind-blowing pies and jams. And don't even get me started on chocolate."
It's been more than half a century since the theory -- yes the theory -- was floated that saturated fats caused heart disease, and food manufacturers slowly started to remove fat. In the 1990s you watched as "Low Fat" and No Fat" started popping up on grocery store shelves like dandelions in a field.
It's all been a big fat, supersized lie.
When you think of summer produce, which vegetable or fruit first comes to mind? Corn? Watermelon? Tomatoes?
I'd wager that Swiss chard isn't anywhere in your top 10 ... or even your top 20.
Swiss chard zipped across my radar when my CSA (community supported agriculture) box arrived the other week. Inside was a big bag filled with chard and all its colorful stems; yellow, pale green, magenta and red. Chard's leaves look like spinach, only larger.
Right now I have eight medium-to-large zucchini in my refrigerator just waiting for me to decide their ultimate fate. Why? I joined Maple Spring Gardens CSA (Community Supported Agriculture) in Cedar Grove, this spring.
It's so tempting to write that Michael Ruhlman's newest book "Egg: A Culinary Exploration of the World's Most Versatile Ingredient," (Little Brown, 2014) is egg-actly the book you need. Cute.
As I cleaned my grill in preparation for regular summer use, I started thinking about the history of backyard grills and grilling in general.
Believe it or not, some Chicago back yards are the epicenter for the creation of backyard barbecue grills; not Texas, or Georgia or even North Carolina. Two of the grills most of us use today were invented in Chicago's suburbs.
The 1950s were a hotbed for grilling. In 1952, George Stephen invented what we now know as the Weber kettle grill by taking half of a marine buoy, welding three legs on the bottom, opening up vents underneath and pounded-out a vented, domed cover (at that time, Stephen was a welder for the Weber Company Metal Works). The story goes that his neighbors called it a "sputnik" after Russia's first space ship.
The Food Fact labels we've all become accustomed to have been around for 21 years. Those labels have gone relatively unchanged throughout the years except for eight years ago when the Food and Drug Administration started requiring food companies to include trans fats.
Those familiar Food Fact labels are about to change again, and in some significant ways. Before we take a look at what's proposed, let's understand why.
Break out the shorts, T-shirts and swimsuits, warmer weather's here and some folks are doing their best to figure out how to be both healthy and look their best.
Here's some assistance.
Michel Guerard, 81-year-old chef and cookbook author frequently is described as a driving force behind France's nouvelle cuisine.
You remember nouvelle cuisine, right? Sure, now "new cuisine" seems like ancient history, but at its dawn in the 1960s it rocked the world of haute cuisine. Nouvelle cuisine is, at its best, a refinement of classic French cuisine. Lightened sauces and delicate dishes presented with artistic flair defined the nouvelle cuisine movement.
A single coupon did more than just save me money, it opened my eyes.
Looking at that $1 coupon for Earth Balance Organic Coconut Spread I couldn't help but recall the days when I deemed coconut oil as the poster child for bad fats.
While perusing the contents of my pantry, a friend came across an older box of Hamburger Helper and asked "how can you have that in your pantry when you write about such healthy foods?"
I explained that my fondness for Hamburger Helper bloomed at a time when I didn't closely read product ingredient lists and sometimes still get the taste for it.
My friend then rattled off the ingredient list: "Enriched macaroni, cornstarch, salt ..."
So many Chinese take-out restaurants now litter the Triangle you'd think that it's easy to find one that's: reasonably priced, understands my leaner ways and produces better-than-average dishes. I finally found one, but keep it's location to myself for fear that it'll be overwhelmed and begin a downward slide from which it'll never recover.

For those who find the topic of interest, I purchased a Suunto Vector last week for about $200. The barometer is a four-day recording type and it has a reasonably accurate compass that will work five feet off my aft steel deck, but goes squirrelly any closer. It has a dim "night light" as well, which won't pooch my night vision and it's good to 30 metres of depth, which argues for its water resistance to spray, at leasts. It also has various alarms and timers and an altimeter which I am less likely to use. It seems it's primarily a skier or mountain climber's watch, but it's got the features I want.
When set for the local height above sea level (about 80 metres at the lake and 90 metres at my house) it is within 2 mb of actual pressure as per the local weather service stations. That's good enough for me...I want the trends and speed of rise and fall more than the raw number.
At $200, I can afford to give it a shot. This is the model. I went for the reverse LCD face.

Minister's appeal to job guarantee scheme workers
VIRUDHUNAGAR: The Minister for Backward Classes Welfare, K.K.S.S.R. Ramachandran, inaugurated the National Rural Employment Guarantee Scheme in Sattur Panchayat union here on Saturday.
Addressing the workers, the Minister asked them to put in their efforts with a dedication to improve infrastructure in their villages. He handed over identity cards to the registered workers. Four works pertaining to deepening and renovating irrigation tanks and supply channels in Bethareddiyapatti, Mettamalai, Sadayampatti and Sindhapalli were taken up at a cost of Rs.15.08 lakh.
The Collector, V. Chandrasekaran, said the rural workers would get an opportunity to earn Rs.80 a day.
Stating that only the rural manpower would be used for all the work under the scheme, he said that no machinery would be employed.
Five panchayats chosen
Five panchayats each in 11 unions in the district have been chosen for the implementation of the scheme, he added.
The Project Officer, District Rural Development Agency, K.R. Azhagirisamy, said that over 60,000 persons have been registered in the 55 panchayats so far.
Sixty per cent of them were women and the registration for the scheme in the district was under way.
New roads and ponds
The district has chosen to undertake formation of new roads and ponds and deepening of tanks and channels.
He expected that the water-starved district could have proper supply channels and create more storage through the scheme.
Besides, the interior village could have better approach roads.

Or wirelessly access phone numbers on your PDA from your cell phone? Wouldn't talking on a phone while driving be easier – and dramatically safer – if you didn't have to be distracted holding the phone or be tethered to a wired headset? Wouldn't it be cool to be able to enjoy rich stereo audio from your MP3 player or home entertainment system wirelessly, with complete freedom to walk from den to kitchen without interruption? Want to get rid of the yards of cables snaking through your office but still be able to use your computer to access the Internet, print files, sync data with your PDA, and print photos taken from your digital camera minutes ago, wirelessly? With more and more cars coming equipped with Bluetooth technology, imagine the convenience as well as safety of conversing with family, friends and business associates without taking your hands off the wheel. Won't it be nice to be able to wirelessly navigate even the most difficult routes in foreign cities using Bluetooth and GPS technologies? Now you can. Bluetooth is here! 4 The Freedom of Bluetooth Introduction Bluetooth is a standard for a small, low-cost, power efficient radio chip that can be used by computers, printers, mobile phones, headsets, headphones, and numerous other consumer electronics. This technology allows multiple devices to communicate with each other, or one device can control and manage several other devices. Background Much in the same way that King Harald Bluetooth united Denmark and Norway, Bluetooth was designed to unite computers, phone equipment and many other electronics devices. Back in 1994, Ericsson Mobile Communications began a feasibility study on an inexpensive low-power radio solution between cell phones and phone accessories. Four years later, Ericsson, along with Nokia, IBM, Toshiba and Intel formed the Bluetooth Special Interest Group (SIG). This association represented leading companies in mobile telephony, notebook computers and a market leader in digital signal processing technology. Bluetooth was positioned as "easy to use" link that would create a personal area network. Immediately, the media and public raised unrealistically high expectations even before the first hardware products arrived. The technology initially delivered more failures than successes, with numerous bugs, complexities, and incompatibilities. By 1999 – the year Bluetooth Spec 1.0 was introduced 5 The Freedom of Bluetooth - 850 companies had joined the SIG. A year later, when spec 1.1 was accepted, the Group boasted well over 1,000 members and a full 2000 companies had become involved by Fall 2003 when Bluetooth Spec 1.2 was announced. Today, the Bluetooth SIG counts among its members 3,400 companies. Instant Multi-device Network A Bluetooth to USB Adapter such as IOGEAR's GBU311 or GBU211 allows any computer to become a Bluetooth-enabled computer, and be able to send to and receive information from a wide variety of other Bluetooth products. ������������������ ���������� ������������������������� ������������������ ������� �������������� ����������������� ��������������������� ����������������� ����������������������������� ������������������������ 6 The Freedom of Bluetooth How does it work? Bluetooth takes the information normally carried by a wire and transmits it at a special frequency to another Bluetooth device. Both the sending and receiving devices have what is called a Bluetooth receiver chip, which translates data into a wireless transmission and then back to normal again, depending on if it is sending or receiving data. ��������� ������ ������������ ������������ ����������� 7 The Freedom of Bluetooth Bluetooth vs. WiFi Perhaps pitting these two wireless technologies against each other is unfair since both offer unique advantages and complement rather than compete with each other. WiFi offers a means to wirelessly connect one or more computers to each other and to a router so they can access the Internet. WiFi range can reach longer distances than Bluetooth and transfers data faster as well. Bluetooth is a short-range wireless medium but offers a means to link not just computers, but PDAs, headphones, headsets, printers and other technology with each other. Bluetooth Data Transfer Rate up to 732 kbps Range up to 330 ft. (100 m) Frequency Band 2.4 Ghz Network Protocol Required No Power Efficient Yes Pros • Designed for quick short range network. • Features lower power consumption • Small protocol stack • Robust data & voice transfer • Low-cost • Replacement for parallel, serial network and audio cable • Ideal for WPAN Cons • Poor choice for WLAN • Medium data transfer rate 8 The Freedom of Bluetooth You can link your computer, printer and cell phone with each other, so both the computer and cell phone can print without cables. You can sync the address book on your computer with your cell phone. Using your Bluetooth headset, you can wirelessly communicate with friends using SKYPE, Vonage or other Voice over IP (VOIP) phone system. A computer can use both Bluetooth and WiFi simultaneously. A wireless WiFi connection can connection the computer to the Internet access point, while Bluetooth adapter can allow the computer to print wirelessly and well as "speak' with other Bluetooth-enabled devices such as a headset, PDA, etc. 802.11b Wired LAN up to 11 mbps up to 11 Mbps up to 330 ft (100 m) N/A 2.4 Ghz N/A Yes Yes No No • Designed for infrequent mobility • Extremely high data rate • IP-based data transmission • Range is limited by • Medium range cables • High data rate • Perfect choice for LAN • Ideal choice for WLAN • Expensive Wired cable solution • Power-hungry • Only for network cable replacement 9 The Freedom of Bluetooth Bluetooth Specs and Classes Since its introduction in 1994, the specifications for Bluetooth have continuously improved. Bluetooth 1.0 and 1.0B The original Bluetooth specifications had numerous problems and the various manufacturers had great dif- ficulties in making their products interoperable. Because of the way Bluetooth devices had to communicate with each other, anonymity was impossiblel Bluetooth 1.1 In version 1.1 added support for non-encrypted channels was added Bluetooth 1.2 This version is backwards compatible with 1.1. Major enhancements include: • Adaptive Frequency Hopping (AFH), which improves resistance to radio interference by avoiding the use of crowded frequencies • Higher transmission speeds Bluetooth 2.0 This version is backwards compatible with 1.x. The main enhancement is the introduction of Enhanced Data Rate (EDR) of 2.1 Mbit/s. • 3X faster transmission speed (up to 10 times in certain cases). • Lower power consumption 10 The Freedom of Bluetooth Classes Bluetooth devices are known as Class 1, Class 2 or Class 3. Class Range Power Applications consumption 1 Up to 330 ft Greater Typically used by (100m) devices that require extended range, such as Bluetooth to USB Adapters (IOGEAR GBU311) and more. 2 Up to 66 ft Lesser Typically used by (20m) devices which do not require great range and should conserve notebook battery power, such as Bluetooth MiniMice (IOGEAR GME225B), Bluetooth GPS (IOGEAR GBGPS201), Printer Adapters (IOGEAR GBP201), and more. 3 Up to 33ft Least Used by devices require (10m) very short range, such as cell phones, PDAs 11 The Freedom of Bluetooth What can I do with Bluetooth?

You can easily connect with your friends' and colleagues' Bluetooth devices to share information, pictures, Internet access, and a wide range of other uses. However, Bluetooth features three types of built-in security to prevent unwanted connections with your equipment: Pairing, Encryption, and Pass Key Protection Bluetooth Built-in Security: - Pairing - Encryption - Pass Key ���������������������������� ��������������� Pairing This function enables Bluetooth devices to remain permanently linked to each other. Even if a "paired" Bluetooth device is turned off, or just out of range, it will be visible to the Bluetooth devices it has been paired with when it is powered on again or comes within range. 20 Connecting with Bluetooth Encryption Bluetooth features 128-bit security encryption to make sure that no other devices can receive transmissions that you send. Pass Key This is a unique, case-sensitive password that is set by the user and is required in order to access and communicate with the Bluetooth device. The Pass Key is continually incorporated into the 128-bit Encryption; also it reinforces pairing by only allowing devices to pair if the password matches. Bluetooth on the Road As noted earlier, nowhere is Bluetooth more at home as on the road. By eliminating wires, Bluetooth allows drivers to converse telephonically without jeopardizing safety. Voice operated Bluetooth-enabled cell phones and Bluetooth headsets were quite literally made for each other, and give drivers complete freedom to get to their destination safely while staying in touch. Car manufacturers from BMW to Chrysler to Toyota equip their cars with Bluetooth technology as standard equipment. With a compatible Bluetooth-enabled phone, drivers can place and answer calls as well as browse and select phone book contacts simply by using buttons often found on steering wheels and keys on their radios. 21 Connecting with Bluetooth On some vehicles, it's even possible to activate these functions using voice commands that interface with the vehicle itself. Just say, "Phone home," and you'll be connected in moments, without having to lift a finger off the wheel. Getting lost while driving is becoming a thing of the past with Bluetooth GPS systems such as IOGEAR's GBGPS201. This palm-sized device wirelessly communicates with GPS satellites and Bluetooth-enabled PDAs, notebook computer, or car-mounted PCs that are gaining in popularity. Guidance information is transmitted from the satellites to the GPS and wirelessly from the GPS to the PDA/notebook/dashboard-mounted PC monitor. These GPS systems can be carried from one vehicle to another, including rental cars, ending frustration and optimizing business travel. 22 Bluetooth Networking Can I use Bluetooth to create a network? All that is needed to connect to a network is a Bluetooth enabling device, such as IOGEAR's Bluetooth to USB Adapter. ������������������� ������������������� ������������������ ������������������������� �������� ������������� 23 Bluetooth Networking As many as eight Bluetooth devices can be connected at once! For example, you can have a couple of Bluetooth- enabled computers, a mobile phone, a video camera, a printer, a PDA, and a Bluetooth access point all working together to share an Internet connection, synchronize address books and calendars, share a printer, and perform various other functions. If there are more than eight Bluetooth devices in the same area, only eight of them can be linked together via pairing to communicate at the same time. Any other devices will not interfere with the Bluetooth network. ���������������������������������� ������������������������� 24 Bluetooth Networking Will Bluetooth interfere with other wireless devices? Bluetooth™ operates at the 2.4 GHz range. While wireless Ethernet 802.11 and some cordless phones do share the 2.4 GHz band range, Bluetooth is designed to operate in a noisy-frequency environment; moreover, by using constant frequency hopping, any possible interference would be minimal and intermittent. Summary Bluetooth offers a very affordable, high-speed, secure, simple and dependable way to communicate and share data wirelessly. Today Bluetooth technology spans the technology, automotive, medical, gaming, entertainment, communications and other industries worldwide. That's why companies including Lexus, Texas Instruments, Apple, Hewlett Packard, BMW, Sony Ericsson, Chrysler, Microsoft, Motorola, Nokia, Toshiba, and hundreds of other developers are introducing more and more new Bluetooth-enabled products that incorporate this new proven standard in communications.

By far nicest KOA I have stayed in. New this year. Washrooms have individual shower toilet and sink. Pool very large, sites level and easy access. Very helpful hosts. All KOAs should follow this standard. - too tall
Jul 2014 - $50.00
This is a brand new KOA about 30 miles south of Stevens Point just off I-39. We stayed here on the Sunday night after the 4th of July. After a full weekend, they were only 1/3 full. The 74 sites I listed above are only the RV sites. There is no specific number of tent sites and the cabins are being built. The sites are all full hookup, pull-through, on level gravel pads. They are long and wide. The facilities/amenities (pool, swimming pond, office, lodge, half a dozen individual bathrooms, pet area, playground, etc.) are all new and working. Their Wi-Fi network worked well in our RV. The hot tub is on hold due to stringent local rules. Some work is still being done on the grounds (cabins, fences, landscaping, etc.). The traffic noise from I-39 may bother some people. Except for the price ($50) and lack of cable, this looks like it will be an excellent RV park. The owners are hands on, live on site, and are very friendly. - Jerry S
Jun 2014 - $47.00
This KOA had been open a month when we stayed there. It has the potential to be a great campground as the staff is eager to please and very friendly. The pool wasn't finished when were there, but it was OK as the weather was cool anyways. Bathrooms and showers were exceptionally clean. I gave it a 9 as the owners are very particular about traffic flow in the campground. The route they want you to take is not marked well and my visitors were given a talking too as they cut through the campground (they stayed on the gravel roads). I would stay here again and hope to when I am in the central WI area. - Vista2013

Very poor campground given the rates they charge. The place looks half complete all over including the bathrooms and rec. hall. I found the owner, (blond woman in 30s) to be perpetually rude to me and the others in my party even though we were nothing but polite to them. Also, watch out for flooding if it rains in this campground. 1/2" of rain will leave standing water 5" deep in many places! - Motorhome Madness

Essential Information
Title examiners analyze and review building and property title records to ensure correct legal title status. Stand-alone certificate programs for title examiners are extremely rare. The more common educational path for this career is a paralegal certificate program that teaches a range of legal research and writing skills. Individuals should have an undergraduate degree prior to enrollment. Students might learn how to conduct research, compose documents and investigate legal cases.
Some programs include a paralegal internship, during which certificate candidates gain valuable experience working in legal settings under the supervision of practicing attorneys. Upon graduating, students can seek professional certification through the National Association of Land Title Examiners and Abstractors.
Educational Prerequisites
The majority of these paralegal certificate programs are post-degree programs, meaning applicants must have an associate's or a bachelor's degree prior to being admitted. Any major is usually acceptable for the required degree, although some programs give admissions preference to those with a business or legal background. Other prerequisites are rare, but may include standardized test scores or a writing proficiency exam.
Program Coursework
These programs generally feature a focused curriculum with few or no elective requirements outside the paralegal concentration. Some common courses include:
- Fundamentals of real estate
- Wills and estates
- Legal writing
- Business law
- Legal research
- Legal terminology
Popular Career Options
This certificate program prepares individuals for a range of legal careers, those in title examination and searching.

From the Publisher
"A thoughtful, thorough approach. The book is well written, covers very important topics in the area of evaluation and assessment, and uses a creative approach to identify salient ethical issues in evaluation. Each chapter can stand alone, and some or all of them would be a wonderful supplement to a text for a course on evaluation."--John H. Schuh, Distinguished Professor of Educational Leadership and Policy Studies, Iowa State University
"I really like the author's approach. Probably the most powerful aspect is the concrete, real-life scenarios that bring the subject matter to life. I can't say enough about how much is to be gained from this approach. I think the scenario exercises are a real stroke of genius, in that they allow the student to anticipate and to think ahead about what to do."--Geni Cowan, Department of Educational Leadership and Policy Studies, California State University, Sacramento
"This book is a great introduction to ethical dilemmas faced not only by evaluators, but also by their client organizations. The beauty of it is that it provides an opportunity to work out the different facets of how we do our work. Beyond the nuts and bolts of what to do, this book makes us think about how we do it. It encourages us to think it through and make decisions that support the integrity of evaluation."--Geni Cowan, Department of Educational Leadership and Policy Studies, California State University, Sacramento
"This book is a great way for students to learn the complexities of evaluation ethics in real-world settings! Realistic case studies with responses by different evaluators--both academics and practitioners--illustrate ethical dilemmas that can arise at every stage of the evaluation, and show how even experienced evaluators differ in the approaches and actions they take in each case. Other cases, without responses, give students the opportunity to practice their own skills."--Jody L. Fitzpatrick, coauthor of Program Evaluation: Alternative Approaches and Practical Guidelines; Graduate School of Public Affairs, University of Colorado at Denver
"As evaluation practitioners know all too well, evaluation is a highly political activity. As such, it is fraught with ethical dilemmas. Morris and his colleagues are to be congratulated for providing the field with a comprehensive, thought-provoking, highly practical, and very useable book on the topic of evaluation ethics. The book's organization takes us through the stages of evaluation practice, providing concise and relevant case scenarios that have few simple answers, yet lend critical insights into what one might do in a given situation. Particularly helpful are the guiding and 'What If' questions, which are excellent tools to facilitate conversations with students, colleagues, and evaluation clients. This book should be on every evaluator's bookshelf."--Hallie Preskill, School of Behavioral and Organizational Sciences, Claremont Graduate University; 2007 President, American Evaluation Association
"Morris has enlisted a seasoned cadre of evaluators to reflect on his evocatively crafted ethical dilemmas. Leaving ponderous prose behind, the contributors write in an engaging, personal style as they weigh alternative courses of action in each scenario. The result is a lively journey through evaluation's ethical landscape that is also a genuinely instructive read."--Jennifer Greene, Department of Educational Psychology, University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign
"This is an exceptionally thought-provoking book for students and practitioners at all levels. It was an informative, entertaining, and engaging read. I had a hard time putting it down. Students in my introductory program evaluation class reported that the cases in the book brought the AEA's Guiding Principles to life and helped them better understand the ethical (and other types of) decision making at the heart of evaluation practice. Reflecting on these cases helped these students prepare for effective evaluation practice."--Donald B. Yarbrough, Director, Center for Evaluation and Assessment, University of Iowa
"In the spirit of 'Ethical Challenges,' his well-known regular feature in the American Journal of Evaluation, Morris has assembled an interesting and compelling set of challenge scenarios and responses from leading contributors to the professional knowledge base. This book is a delightful addition to the shelves of evaluation practitioners and students. Morris walks us through ethical challenges and dilemmas associated with all aspects of the process, from planning evaluations to using their results. The thematic round up of cross-cutting issues in the final chapter moves the profession forward in realistic and thoughtful ways. Bravo!"--J. Bradley Cousins, Faculty of Education, University of Ottawa, Ontario, Canada; Editor, Canadian Journal of Program Evaluation
