Top quality: our First Class Lounge at Munich
Look forward to an exclusive start to your journey from the heart of Bavaria: our Lufthansa First Class Lounge at Munich Airport offers you 860 square metres of space on two levels in which to relax. The lounge has its own passport and security controls which facilitate a quick and direct change of levels.
New: coat service for First Class passengers and HON Circle Members
Taking a holiday somewhere warm and sunny during the wintertime – it's simply wonderful. Now, as a special service, our First Class passengers and HON Circle Members can set off on such holidays with slightly lighter baggage. From November up to and including April they will have the option of handing in their winter coat at the airport in Frankfurt or Munich and picking it up again on their return.
At Munich the cloakroom is provided in the First Class Lounge and coats will be kept there until their owners return from their trip.
This exclusive coat service is available free of charge to Lufthansa and SWISS First Class passengers and to all HON Circle Members on Lufthansa and Star Alliance flights.
Arrival and check-in
As a First Class customer arriving by car at Munich Airport, you will be met at the curbside check-in by a member of staff. While you go straight to the check-in counter, this employee will see to the return of your rental car or park your car for you. Alternatively, you may check in at our First Class check-in counters in Terminal 2.
First Class passengers are able to check in up to 25 minutes before departure.
at Munich Airport, Relax chairs, a comfort area, quiet rooms with daybeds and an exclusive Cigar Lounge ensure you can relax before your flight departs.
in the Wining & Dining Area you will find a buffet with a regularly changing selection of hot and cold specialities and a well-stocked bar.
Freshening up
a spacious and stylish bathroom provides everything you need for a shower, a bath or a quick freshen-up before your flight.
the work area has separate office units and office points so that you can use our Internet PCs or your own laptop to prepare for your next meeting undisturbed.
Location and opening times
Separate security control for transit passengers from non-EU countries: because of EU regulations, passengers arriving from countries outside the EU (with the exception of Switzerland, Norway, Iceland or Liechtenstein) must go through a separate security check before catching their connecting flight. On arrival at Munich they are therefore routed via an upper walkway (Level 06) to the relevant departure level for their connecting flight and directed through security before entering gate areas G and H.
Opening times: the Lufthansa First Class Lounge at Munich is open daily from 5 am to 10 pm.
Location: the First Class Lounge at Munich Airport is located in the Terminal 2 Schengen Departure Area at Gate G21 (Level 04) and at Gate H21 (Level 05).

Calkins: Try to beat, not be Gonzaga
You're only as good as the company you keep. Unless, of course, you're a men's basketball team in the West Coast Conference.
In that case, you are either Gonzaga, or you are one of the eight schools nowhere close to as good as Gonzaga.
We were reminded of this again on Saturday, when the No. 7 Zags scored a 65-63 victory over a USD team that wouldn't go away.
It's OK, though. The Toreros got to face a Final Four contender. The fans got to boo the conference celebrities in a game that came down to the final play. And for one night, nearly every seat at Jenny Craig experienced that rare feeling of someone actually sitting in it.That's the good thing about Gonzaga, which lures TV cameras and thousands of bodies to watch one of the nation's premier college basketball programs. The bad thing? The other WCC schools seem to be asking "why can't we be that program?"
"For a coach in the WCC, it used to be about graduating kids and putting a good product on the floor. Now, it's about winning," said former USD coach Brad Holland. "For better or for worse, that's because of Gonzaga."
Holland knows better than most the pitfalls the "Gonzaga effect" can have on the rest of the conference. He coached at USD for 13 years before being let go in 2007, when his Toreros again failed to win more than half of their conference games.
He also had plenty of company.
Whether it was Loyola Marymount's Rodney Tention , Pepperdine's Paul Westphal, or Santa Clara's Dick Davey – who coached the Broncos for 15 seasons – WCC coaches have been clearing out their offices at a whirlwind's pace this millennium. And if you don't think that's a direct consequence of Gonzaga reaching 14 consecutive NCAA Tournaments, then you need to promptly remove your blinders.
It's easy to see why the rest of the conference thinks it could mimic Gonzaga's greatness. "They're a faith-based school with 5,000 or so students. We're a faith-based school with 5,000 or so students. What am I missing here?"
Well, likely, you're missing money.
When the Zags made their Elite 8 run in 1999, the school saw a massive spike in applications. Basically, the Tournament served as $5 million worth of free advertising, which prompted the university to think "huh."
The cash then floweth.
USA Today reported that Gonzaga coach Mark Few makes just shy of $1 million annually. His assistants take in over $200K, and the team takes charter flights for the majority of its road games. As much as you'd like success to be about X's and O's, it's probably much more about dollars and cents.
That's why – and this sentence has probably never been written before – Spokane is the perfect place to be.
The late LA Times sports columnist Jim Murray once wrote "the trouble with Spokane is that there's nothing to do after 10 o'clock. In the morning." And while that comment might tick off an Applebee's manager or two, Murray was absolutely right.

Rodney Dangerfield couldn't get it, Aretha Frankin had to spell it, and Brittany Spears is struggling to get it back. It's called respect. It's also something guys who own wagons seem to miss out on ... a little. As an owner of an '82 Malibu wagon I know this firsthand. Yeah, I know they are commonly referred to as grocery getters, but I sort of like that term. Maybe it's because of all the cool, vintage drag race Stockers I used to see back in the day.
But in today's world of building cars, having that grocery getter handle corners just as good as the coupe it's modeled after isn't a problem thanks to companies like Hotchkis Performance. Their TVS Extreme kit for G-bodies is tuned and ready to go. It basically bolts up to our Malibu Wagon pretty much the same way it would on a coupe or its El Camino cousin.
We picked up the car a few months ago with the idea of having a wagon for us editorial guys to haul a bunch of timing and photo equipment to photo shoots and car test days. When we purchased the car, we knew the existing suspension was, for the most part, original and it would need new shocks and springs at the minimum. But once we got around to ordering up the new parts, we figured it would be cool to go with a total sport suspension system and turn our work wagon into a hot handler.
We called the folks at Hotchkis and told them what we had in mind for this car, and after the chuckling on the other end of the line finally subsided, they realized we were serious. Actually they loved the idea of bolting their kit up to our wagon. They're pretty familiar with our driving habits so they knew the TVS Extreme G-body kit would be perfect for what we had in mind. They also suggested we go with the rear airbag kit since we'll be loading the car with some pretty heavy equipment. We also went ahead and ordered up new shocks since the ones that came on the ride were toast. They may even have been original equipment. Seriously, the ride was incredibly bad, unless you like bouncing four extra times over speed bumps.
With the new suspension parts bolted up, the fact that the stock steering had a wicked flat spot became painfully obvious, so before hitting the track, we called up the crew at CPP (Classic Performance Products) and ordered up a new steering box. After all, new suspension will only perform as good as the car's steering ability.
Needless to say, after all the new suspension goodies and steering box were bolted up, we couldn't wait to test out the new parts. So we packed up our gear and took the car to our testing facility at the old El Toro Marine Base in Irvine, California. We hammered it through our 420-foot slalom course and 200-foot skid pad and couldn't believe the handling improvement. It's also important to point out that the Hotchkis Sport Suspension is tuned for every day driving as well as aggressive cornering, so we didn't give up any ride comfort on city streets and highways.
All in all, we were quite surprised at how well the car held up through the rigorous testing. Not that we doubted the strength and ability of the Hotchkis suspension components, but the fact that we were running some no-name-brand 380 treadwear tires on front and non-matching 200 tread wear rubber on the rear, was a testament to the quality of the suspension components. And it was all done on 15x6-inch wheels up front and 15x7s out back.
Of course that got us to thinking, 'what if we had 18-inch wheels with more accommodating rubber on this thing?' Well, that's another story for another test day, but I'm sure that will happen soon.
So the bottom line here; don't be disrespecting the wagon. And even though our extra long G-body hauls around a bunch of camera equipment, it can also haul around corners with the best of 'em.

Congratulations to the WWE for finally giving Mark Henry the chance and opportunity that he deserves. He has been a monster heel off and on for a while and what was supposed to happen in 2006 finally happened 5 years later at WWE Night of Champions.
I believe that there is one more man deserving of his time to shine before he phases out of wrestling history: William Regal.

First time blogger but I have tons of posts on the forums, I decided to do this today after coming up with plenty of(if I may say so) great ideas, now it involves most of the titles and some backup fueds as well, while utilizing most of WWE's biggest current stars.
WWE Title:
Either Cena or Del Rio should win this, because C.M. Punk is apparently going to have a match with Kevin
Updated 09-22-2011 at 04:01 AM by Frank
(I took way to long of a break and I apologize to anyone who was actually paying attention.)
Like I said, it been a while since I have blogged and a ton has happened in the world of WWE. Nash got fired, along with Miz and R-Truth (NWO anyone?), CM Punk is out of the title picture, and John Cena won his record 10th WWE Championship. Not only all of that, but the WWE has announced also
It is sad to see someone like Matt Hardy go through what he is going through. I mean all this self destruction is tough to watch. He had been a very entertaining wrestler, but the drugs and the alcohol left his final in ring years a shamble.
It is easy to say this could have been prevented. However, the wrestling aspect has a lot to do with why he is the way he is. I'm not gonna make

Here in our little corner of New England (western Massachusetts) cheese curds (as a food item) simply do not exist. They are not for sale in the supermarkets and they are not on the menus at our restaurants. Yet in Wisconsin and in other parts of the country, they are sold everywhere.
|Battered and fried cheese curds
In Wisconsin, and many other states, the preference seems to be for fried (or beer battered) curds dipped in ranch dressing. However, there are supposedly 1200 cheesemakers who sell 600 varieties of cheese curds in Wisconsin alone. These include hot pepper, chipotle, garlic, cajun, paprika, peppercorn ranch, jalapeno, pesto, chili, bacon and onion, dill, etc, etc.
|Poutine, a French Canadian dish
In Canada, and bordering US states, poutine is a very popular (if somewhat high calorie!) dish consisting of curds and gravy over french fries.
If any of this interests you, why not make your own? It's very simple to do. We have a recipe on our website by Jim Wallace with step-by-step directions and 24 pictures. (click here) Here's his summary:
Ways to serve cheese curds:
There are probably a million ways to serve your curds. We found these suggestions at Madame Fromage's fabulous blog and she graciously allowed us to use them:
12 Ways to Serve Your Curds
A few weeks ago, I was at a farmers' market in Madison, Wisconsin when I overheard one vendor say to another, "You know what I like to do my curds? I wrap them in arugula." A little light went off in my mind. Of course, arugula-wrapped curds. Maybe add a cherry tomato?
I bought a bag of herbed curds and dashed back to my brother's place, where we began to invent new uses for the curd. The arugula-wrapped curds disappeared at our family picnic, but my favorite curd concoction was the pre-picnic cocktail, a Bloody Mary with curd skewers.
And so, the list of curds and their uses began. Here they are, in no particular order…a dozen uses for cheese curds. Of course they're always good right from the bag, but when you've got half the bag left?
1. Make antipasti skewers of mozzarella curds, olives, pepperoncini, cubed pepperroni or ham, and cherry toms.
2. Go glam: alternate white curds and slivers of white peach, alongside a dish of Jordan almonds.
3. Melt herbed curds on pizza.
4. Cowboy curds: curds, bbq sauce for dipping, celery sticks (mock chicken wings, anyone?)
5. Wrap curds in arugula (or basil) and secure with toothpick.
6. Chop curds and toss into a salad. Try cheddar curds, bacon, purple onion, cherry tomatoes and spinach.
7. Finely dice curds and fold them into cold gazpacho.
8. Quarter a curd and stuff slivers into large, pitted green olives. A curd martini.
9. Process curds in a food processor with caramelized onions, cream cheese, a little milk, and rosemary. Shmear onto baguette rounds and toast.
10. Toss cubed curds into a cold pasta salad, along with sun-dried tomatoes, capers, black olives, and a hand-ful of spinach.
11. Onion and curd burgers: Dice curds and yellow onion. Toss into your burger mix, along with a dash of A-1 and lots of black pepper.
12. Next time you make a Bloody Mary, skewer a few curds. (My recipe appears this week on Wisconsin Cheese Talk. It contains Referent, an awesome artisanal horseradish vodka!)

Fort Walton Beach City Councilwoman Joyce Gossom has always believed in executing the will of her constituents, but she says she has become even more convinced of that in recent months.
Gossom is one of 55 people from across the state participating in the 31st annual class of Leadership Florida. The program, which was created in 1982 by the Florida Chamber of Commerce, brings together educators, business owners, public officials and executives of nonprofit agencies for an eight-month study of leadership.
"It's such an eclectic group," Gossom said. "We meet every other month … in a different area of Florida."
The class began its program in Howey-in-the-Hills and has since met in Naples and Jacksonville. It is scheduled to gather in Tallahassee in March for the legislative session and close out the year in Miami.
For Gossom, the best part of the program has been learning from her classmates and the professionals brought in to share their ideas.
"They bring in speakers who are the recognized experts in that field," she said.
Topics have included the history of Florida, the state's environment and agriculture, and health care.
During the meetings the class participated in a mock legislative budget session.
"It was lots of fun," Gossom said. "We had a House, a Senate, a speaker, a Senate president and a governor and her Cabinet."
With numbers from Florida's actual budget, class members agreed on a spending plan that increased funding for education and health care.
"It was amazing in this group of people … that we all came back with budgets that did those same things," she said.
Gossom said her time in Leadership Florida has reminded her of the importance of getting feedback from the people she serves in Fort Walton Beach.
"You are there to implement the plans the people want," she said. "You're not there to do what you think is best."
To prepare for each meeting's theme, Gossom and the other participants are assigned background readings.
The course has been rigorous but well worth the effort, she said.
"I'm very glad I did it."
Although the class is filled with "people who are at the top of their game" and who are from vastly different fields, the group has been able to find common ground.
"It's so wonderful because no one in there introduces themselves by their position," Gossom said. "If you introduce yourself by your position, you probably wouldn't do well in Leadership Florida."
The program has reinforced the idea that they all have been given leadership abilities for a reason.
"You have these abilities, you have these awarenesses, you have these opportunities because you were meant to do something with them," Gossom said. "Not just to say you have them. … It's about, 'What are you doing?' and 'How are you going to pay it forward?' "

I am building a metal fence about my house in Costa Rica and came across these solar lights. I wanted to line the perimeter with a solar light on the posts and watched the video of these before ordering.

I highly recommend this to all. Thank you!

The term will-o'-the-wisp comes from wisp, a bundle of sticks or paper sometimes used as a torch, and will-o' ("Will of").
The folklore phenomenon will-o'-the-wisp (Will of the wisp) is sometimes referred to as Jack o' lantern (Jack of the lantern), and indeed the two terms were originally synonymous. In fact the names "Jacky Lantern" and "Jack the Lantern" are still present in the oral tradition of Newfoundland. These lights are also sometimes referred to as "corpse candles" or "hobby lanterns", two monikers found in the Denham Tracts. They are often called spooklights or ghost lights by folklorists and paranormal enthusiasts in the United States. Sometimes the phenomenon is classified by the observer as a ghost, fairy, or elemental, and a different name is used. Briggs' "A Dictionary of Fairies" provides an extensive list of other names for the same phenomenon though the place they are observed (graveyard, bogs etc.) influences the naming considerably.
One version, from Shropshire, recounted by K. M. Briggs in her book A Dictionary of Fairies, refers to Will the Smith. Will is a wicked blacksmith who is given a second chance by Saint Peter at the gates to Heaven, but leads such a bad life that he ends up being doomed to wander the Earth. The Devil provides him with a single burning coal with which to warm himself, which he then used to lure foolish travellers into the marshes (compare Wayland Smith).
An Irish version of the tale has a ne'er-do-well named Drunk Jack or Stingy Jack who makes a deal with the Devil, offering up his soul in exchange for payment of his pub tab. When the Devil comes to collect his due, Jack tricks him by making him climb a tree and then carving a cross underneath, preventing him from climbing down. In exchange for removing the cross, the Devil forgives Jack's debt. However, because no one as bad as Jack would ever be allowed into Heaven, Jack is forced upon his death to travel to Hell and ask for a place there. The Devil denies him entrance in revenge, but, as a boon, grants Jack an ember from the fires of Hell to light his way through the twilight world to which lost souls are forever condemned. Jack places it in a carved turnip to serve as a lantern. Another version of the tale, "Willy the Whisp", is related in Irish Folktales by the late Henry Glassie.
Sometimes the lights are believed to be the spirits of unbaptized or stillborn children, flitting between heaven and hell (compare Wilis). Modern occultist elaborations bracket them with the salamander, a type of spirit wholly independent from humans (unlike ghosts, which are presumed to have been humans at some point in the past).
Danes, Finns, Swedes, Estonians and Latvians amongst some other groups believed that a will-o'-the-wisp marked the location of a treasure deep in ground or water, which could be taken only when the fire was there. Sometimes magical tricks were required as well, to uncover the treasure. In Finland and other northern countries it was believed that midsummer was the best time to search for will-o'-the-wisps and treasures below them. It was believed that when someone hid treasure in the ground, (s)he made the treasure available only at the midsummer, and set will-o'-the-wisp to mark the exact place and time so that (s)he could come to take the treasure back. Finns also believed that the creature guarding the treasure used fire to clean precious metals bright again.
The will-o'-the-wisp can be found in numerous folk tales around the United Kingdom, and is often a malicious character in the stories. Wirt Sikes in his book British Goblins mentions a Welsh tale about a will-o'-the-wisp (Pwca). A peasant travelling home at dusk spots a bright light travelling along ahead of him. Looking closer, he sees that the light is a lantern held by a "dusky little figure", which he follows for several miles. All of a sudden he finds himself standing on the edge of a vast chasm with a roaring torrent of water rushing below him. At that precise moment the lantern-carrier leaps across the gap, lifts the light high over its head, lets out a malicious laugh and blows out the light, leaving the poor peasant a long way from home, standing in pitch darkness at the edge of a precipice. This is a fairly common cautionary tale concerning the phenomenon; however, the Ignis Fatuus was not always considered dangerous. There are some tales told about the will-o'-the-wisp being guardians of treasure, much like the Irish leprechaun leading those brave enough to follow them to sure riches. Other stories tell of travellers getting lost in the woodland and coming upon a will-o'-the-wisp, and depending on how they treated the will-o'-the-wisp, the spirit would either get them lost further in the woods or guide them out.
In Indonesia, especially Central Java, the light is known as Gandaspati, a wicked spirit in flame that can take the form a dragon. Supposedly the spirit causes the death of whomever touches it.
In Guernsey, the light is known as the faeu boulanger (rolling fire), and is believed to be a lost soul. On being confronted with the spectre, tradition prescribes two remedies. The first is to turn one's cap or coat inside out. This has the effect of stopping the faeu boulanger in its tracks. The other solution is to stick a knife into the ground, blade up. The faeu, in an attempt to kill itself, will attack the blade.
One Asian theologist ponders the relation of will-o'-the-wisp to that of the foxfire produced by kitsune, an interesting way of combining mythology of the West with that of the East.
In addition to Kitsunebi (aka Foxfire) described above, additional similar phenomena are described in Japanese folklore, including Hitodama (literally "Human ball" as in ball of energy), Hi no Tama (Ball of Flame), Aburagae, Koemonbi, Ushionibi, etc. All these phenomena are described as balls of flame or light, at times associated with graveyards, but occurring across Japan as a whole in a wide variety of situations and locations. These phenomena are described in Shigeru Mizuki's 1985 book Graphic World of Japanese Phantoms (妖怪伝 in Japanese)
More recently Professors Derr and Persinger put forward a theory that earth lights may be generated piezoelectrically under a tectonic strain. This theory suggests that the strains which move faults also causes heat in the rocks, vaporising the water in them. Rocks and soils containing piezoelectric elements such as quartz (or silicon) may also produce electricity, which is channeled up through soils via a column of vaporised water until it reaches the surface — somehow displaying itself in the form of earth lights. If correct, this explains why such lights can behave in an electrical and erratic – or even apparently intelligent – manner.
Others explanations associate will-o'-the-wisps with bioluminescence (e.g. honey fungus). Barn owls are also known to have luminescent plumage with a very high albedo that can reflect enough light from other sources (for example, the moon) to generate the appearance of a will-o'-the-wisp. Hence the possibility of them floating around, reacting to other lights, etc.
In literature, Will o' the wisp sometimes has a metaphorical meaning, describing a hope or goal that leads one on but is impossible to reach, or something one finds sinister and confounding. Samuel Taylor Coleridge's poem The Rime of the Ancient Mariner describes the Will o' the wisp, and two Will-o-the-wisps appear in Johann Wolfgang von Goethe's fairy tale of The Green Snake and the Beautiful Lily (1795). John Wilmot, 2nd Earl of Rochester satirically refers to human reason as "an ignis fatuus in the mind" in his 1670 poem "A Satyre Against Reason and Mankind." The Will o' the wisp also makes an appearance in the first chapter of Bram Stoker's Dracula, wherein the Count, masquerading as his own coach driver, takes Jonathan Harker to his castle in the night. "Ignis Fatuus" can also be seen in Charlotte Brontë's Jane Eyre in chapter 28 when she is lost in the moor.
Hinkypunk, the name for a Will o' the wisp in South West England has achieved fame as a magical beast in JK Rowling's Harry Potter series.. Here, the Hinkypunk is a translucent creature that bears a lantern in one hand and hops on a single foot. Humans who follow this light may find themselves immersed in marsh. In J.R.R Tolkien's work The Lord of the Rings, Will o' the wisps are present as "candles lit by the dead" in the Dead Marshes outside of Mordor.
In Michael Ende's fantasy novel, The Neverending Story, a Will o' the Wisp is one of the many species of creatures living in the land of Fantastica. The Will o' the Wisp described in the novel is a messenger sent to visit the Childlike Empress. He is described as being a small man inside an orb of light, who traveled by bouncing irregularly through the woods.
Will-o'-the-Wisps are mentioned as magical creatures in Cornelia Funke's novel Dragon Rider. No comprehensive description is given, though they are implied to be tiny, luminous creatures who are equally likely to be found in mountains and in deserts.
The "light flyers", who are firefly-like organisms featured by T.A. Barron's The Lost Years of Merlin book series, may be a reference to the Will o' the Wisp.
In Blindness (novel), by José Saramago, on pages 313-314, the doctor's wife notices will-o'-the-wisps around a supermarket basement door: "A few minutes later she said, They are dead, Did you see anything, did you open the door, asked her husband, No, I only saw will-o'-the-wisps around the doors, they clung there and danced around and did not let go, I think it must have been the phosphorised hydgrogen as a result of the decomposition of the bodies, What could have happened, They must have found the basement, rushed down the stairs looking for food".

Influential Health Care Leader Dr. Anthony Tersigni to Address SLU Graduates
Tersigni, Artist Brother Mel Meyer, Philanthropists Marvin and Harlene Wool to Receive Honorary Degrees
ST. LOUIS — Saint Louis University will celebrate its 2011 commencement Saturday, May 21, at Chaifetz Arena. Dr. Anthony Tersigni, one of the most powerful and influential leaders in health care today, will address this year's graduates.
As president and CEO of Ascension Health Inc., Tersigni oversees the nation's largest Catholic health care system, and the third largest system overall. The St. Louis-based organization includes more than 113,000 associates, serving in more than 500 locations in 20 states and the District of Columbia.
"Dr. Tersigni has made it his mission to transform health care one hospital at a time," said University President Lawrence Biondi, S.J. "His vision stems from his own strong sense of purpose, his belief in God and his devotion to others, particularly those who are less fortunate."
|Dr. Anthony Tersigni
The system Tersigni leads is driven by a mission to provide the highest quality care to all, regardless of income. Last year, Ascension Health provided $1.08 billion in care to those who are poor. Equally committed to preventive care, Ascension Health announced plans earlier this year to conduct a nearly $3 million study to determine best practices to reduce or eliminate birth complications.
Tersigni was appointed to his current post in 2004. Prior to that, he served as Ascension Health's executive vice president and chief operating officer. His illustrious career, which spans more than 25 years, also includes senior leadership positions with numerous other health care organizations, including the Sisters of St. Joseph Health System in Ann Arbor, Mich., and the Sisters of Charity Health Care Systems in Cincinnati.
Additionally, Tersigni is the chairman of the Catholic Health Association of the United States and serves on the boards of the Healthcare Leadership Council, the Coalition to Protect America's Health Care and the National Catholic Bioethics Center. He has been named one of Modern Healthcare's "100 Most Powerful People in Healthcare" for five consecutive years.
Tersigni holds a doctorate in the field of leadership/organizational development from Western Michigan University and since 1985, has been a clinical professor of health and behavioral sciences at Oakland University in Rochester, Mich.
During the commencement ceremony, Biondi will confer honorary degrees upon Tersigni as well as St. Louis artist Brother Mel Meyer, S.M., and longtime SLU supporters Marvin and Harlene Wool.
Brother Mel Meyer, S.M.
|Brother Mel Meyer, S.M.
Brother Mel Meyer, S.M., is a celebrated and prolific artist who has created more than 10,000 works of art, including a large memorial to Korean War veterans near the Jewel Box in St. Louis' Forest Park. SLU is home to a number of his pieces as well, including sculptures in its Ellen Clark Sculpture Park. Meyer's studio is located on the St. John Vianney High School campus in Kirkwood, Mo., where nearly 200 of his sculptures dot the property.
"The true magnitude of Brother Mel's contribution to the world of art and the spirituality of Catholicism cannot be understated," Biondi said. "His works have given us a fresh way of experiencing faith, nature and life itself."
Meyer became a member of the Society of Mary in 1947, and he began his Marianist ministry as an English teacher. In 1958, the order asked him to design a stained glass window for the Chaminade College Preparatory School chapel in St. Louis and sent him to Paris for inspiration. Meyer spent the next year in Europe, traveling 14,000 miles on a motor scooter to visit cathedrals, chapels and art museums.
Although not every piece is commissioned for religious institutions, Meyer has said all of his work is religious in nature and credits his religious life as the source of his creative inspiration. Meyer's works sell for hundreds of thousands of dollars or more, and proceeds go to the Marianist order to further its religious mission. He earned his bachelor's degree from Dayton University in Ohio and master's degree from the University of Notre Dame.
Marvin and Harlene Wool
|Marvin and Harlene Wool
Marvin and Harlene Wool are noted philanthropists, whose generosity has enhanced educational, religious and arts institutions in St. Louis and beyond.
"Despite their countless achievements, accomplishments and accolades, the Wools choose to lead a quiet life — one centered on family, faith and community," Biondi said. "This compassionate couple exemplifies SLU's Ignatian spirit."
A two-time SLU alumnus, Marvin Wool earned his bachelor's degree in chemistry in 1948 and his MBA in 1956. He is the founder, president and CEO of DASH Multi-Corp., a diversified group of manufacturing companies, active in plastic raw materials, textiles and flooring products. The St. Louis-based corporation employs more than 700 people around the country.
The Wools have used their great success to benefit others. They are active supporters of the Jewish community. The campus of the B'Nai El Congregation in St. Louis County is named in their honor, and the Marvin and Harlene Wool Studio Theatre at the Jewish Community Center serves as the home of the New Jewish Theatre.
The Wools also are generous benefactors of Saint Louis University. On May 13, SLU dedicated the Marvin and Harlene Wool Center, which is home to a number of administrative and support units, to recognize the couple's generosity and longstanding loyalty to the University. Marvin Wool has been a member of the Saint Louis University board of trustees since 2006.
Saint Louis University's 2011 commencement begins at 9 a.m. Saturday at Chaifetz Arena, One Compton Ave. on the SLU campus.

A construction crew last week expanded Carrabelle's 10 Mile Reef system, further enhancing fishing and diving opportunities in and around Dog Island.
Alan Richardson, who chairs the Tallahassee-based non-profit Organization of Artificial Reefs group, said the deployment took place June 17 and 18, funded by a mix of state grants, matching funds and private donations.
The new reef components, named in memory of young men whose life were tragically cut short, expand to the south the 10 Mile Reef complex, about three miles offshore of Dog Island.
Origins of the reef date back to 1999 when a group of divers from Thomasville, Georgia created the Rose City Reef, the first in a complex series of smaller patch reefs that have grown over the years with additional portions, each named in the memory of a fishing or diving enthusiast who loved the Gulf waters.
The most recent of these, the popular "Robby's Reef" was christened in May, 2011, and includes a 12-ton metal sculpture. Costs are defrayed each year by supporters of the Robby Redding family, through a fundraising event on Robby's traditional birthday after Christmas.
Last week's deployment included an enhancement of Robby's Reef, which added another eight artificial reef units to the patch reef, as well as creation of the Dixon Camp memorial reef, about two-tenths of a mile further south of Robby's.
Both the Camp and Redding families of the St. Teresa Beach community lost sons at young ages and approached OAR early on about donating funds in order to memorialize them. OAR also had the support of the Thornal family, who lost their 19-year-old son Price last Easter in a tragic traffic accident.
Richardson said the deployment, conducted by Walter Marine, out of Orange Beach, Alabama, included three Super Reefs, large concrete and limestone prefabricated reef structures, that tower 15 feet above the Gulf sea floor in 60 feet of water. The placement of the Super Reef forms is framed with 10 eight-foot tall reef structures known as "Florida Specials," which incorporate native Florida limestone as part of their makeup. All total, this project will utilize three Super Reefs, and 30 Florida Specials.
Walter Marine's website says Florida Limestone rock is comprised of ancient clam shells and matches a natural reef in both PH and substrate. Used previously in boulder form for artificial reefs, Walter said it developed a patented process to embed the rock into the concrete reef surface, and that boring organisms that dwell on artificial reefs cannot survive on a concrete reef but easily make the Florida Limestone reef their home.
Richardson said the deployment costs about $125,000, paid for by a $55,000 grant from the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission Division of Marine Fisheries' Artificial Reefs Program; a $15,000 match from the city of Carrabelle that came from OAR; and about $47,000 in additional private donations.
Funds from the Big Bend Saltwater Classic have helped OAR complete its mission. State and federal funds come from a fee tacked on to recreational fishing licenses, and from excise taxes that people pay on boats, motors, tackle, and the like.
"We could not have been able to make this reef project a reality without the support of the city of Carrabelle, namely City Administrator Courtney Millender," said Richardson. "The city appreciates the increased opportunities for tourism that a project of this magnitude brings. It has been reported that for every dollar spent in reef development, $138 in tourism dollars are returned back to the coastal communities."
The state grant came after more than $1 million in requests came in for a half-million dollars in available grant funds, and Franklin and Wakulla counties each received $55,000.
The project envisioned for the City of St. Marks is a realignment and enlargement of the St Marks Reef, first deployed in 1964. OAR, through the City of St. Marks, will be deploying over 75 prefab reef modules in a depth of 20 feet, and is also matching $15,000 for this effort. "OAR has submitted the grant paperwork to the FWC, and we are currently moving this project through the proper channels," said Richardson.
He said re-permitting the reef expansion, after the original permit expired in 2011, was a lengthy process, but OAR eventually secured approval form the Army Corps of Engineers. "It took three years to re-permit," Richardson said. "That's the hardest part, dealing with the Corps. They're awful."
He said OAR had hoped to secure a contractor from Florida, but only Walter Marine, the largest deployer of artificial reefs in the nation, bid. "There's nobody in our area that's doing this," said Richardson.
He said OAR, a completely volunteer group, is working with marine enthusiasts in Apalachicola to expand the reef off of George Island to the eats of Bob Sikes Cut, and perhaps one in shallower water off of Apalachicola. "We got to get it permitted and it takes forever," Richardson said.
He said they are also trying to permit a reef in shallower waters off Dog Island, perhaps in 25 to 30 feet deep waters.
"It would be closer to shore for smaller boats," Richardson said. "A lot of people are downsizing and fuel costs are so much. We're targeting more inshore activity."
He said by building one off Apalachicola in state waters, there would be more snapper habitat closer to shore, and fishermen could take advantage of a longer state season for the prized food fish.
"We have to make sure were not in shrimpers lanes, or sea turtle habitat," Richardson said. "We have to go through all the permitting obstacles."
While artificial reefs are popular with divers and fishermen, they are not without their detractors. Some, such as the Ocean Conservancy, oppose their construction, contending that they exacerbate problems with overfishing by concentrating large populations of fish in one area. In addition, they argue that there are too many question marks as to the effect these structures have on the marine environment.

After oral sex a couple, or triple, or several deep kiss eachother mixing the secretion.

You guys are idiots snowballs are made outta snow get it right you nasty lil' freaks.
After this snow is over we can go out side and throw snowballs at cars.
po Deserie Фабруар 4, 2006
When a man receives oral sex by a woman... He ejaculates in her mouth and then proceeds to making out with her. The man can taste the cum but says nothing because he is super drunk.
My friend was going down on her ex-boyfriend, he came in her mouth and she started to kiss him and spit it back into his mouth, the same way you would pickup snow and throw it back at a person... A Snowball. Instead of her swallowing... he had to, but since he was super drunk he didn't say anything. They say, "payback is a bit@h." Guys beware ex-girlfriends (and girls in general) are ruthless. So the moral of the story is "Don't Drink and Bone."

I use remote desktop quite a bit and I spent some time today playing with a lot of combinations of settings to get the best performance. I found a couple interesting things so maybe it will help someone else out
1. Performance is significantly better when I enable both Desktop Composition and Visual Styles. This really took me by surprise, but here's where it's most evident.
With these settings disabled, if I remotely login and start Google Chrome as a fullscreen window, I can see multiple screen repaints. Each repaint starts from the top left corner of the screen and goes down to the bottom right. I can watch the repaint go from left to right as it's going down. The same is true if try to load a webpage. As things load up on the webpage, it triggers an additional screen refresh.
On the other hand, if I enable both of these settings there is only 1 repaint when I start Chrome. Not only that, it seems to happen in big square blocks rather than line by line. This is also the case when I load a webpage.
2. Performance is slightly better when I have my local and remote desktop color depth to match each other (32bit color). I thought if I reduced the session color depth to something lower like 15-bit, it'd be faster but that wasn't the case.
My local and remote machines both run Windows 7

Petition looks to close village schoolBy Lucia Suarez
STAFF WRITER | February 19,2013CASTLETON Frank Taggart said he believes taxpayers in Castleton will save a lot of money if the town closes the Village School and he is circulating a petition asking the School Board to put it on a special ballot for consideration.
Taggart, a general contractor in town, said the rising school taxes and the falling enrollment at the towns elementary schools are what motivated him to draft the petition. He said it is out of control.
We have got to stop somewhere, he said during an interview in his office. The towns of West Rutland and Proctor are K through 12 and they are doing it with less (money) than we are with K through 8.
Taggart wants to move the sixth- through eighth-graders at the Village School on Mechanic Street to the Castleton Elementary School on Elementary School Road. Its the same proposal both school boards considered a couple of years ago.
Enrollment at the Village School is 125 students, while the elementary school has 237 students.
Taggart said enrollment at both schools has continued to decline for many years, falling a combined 3 percent last year and a combined 4 percent this year.
He said for the merger to happen, some jobs would need to be cut like one of the principals, a nurse and some custodians but something needs to be done to save taxpayers money.
The proposed budget for the Castleton/Hubbardton Union School District is $5,856,264, which is up $228,154 more than this years budget of $5,628,110.
I dont feel comfortable with the numbers, Taggart said. I hate to see the principal and the custodians go, but something has to go.
He said additional cost savings can be found in line items for some of the building and services and under building maintenance. With these cuts, the town could easily save close to $400,000 and this is without looking for more cuts, Taggart said.
I have been in business for 50 years, he said. Its tough to do, but the economy is saying we should do something.
The Castleton/Hubbardton School Board considered closing the village school and moving all students to the elementary school in 2010. After listening to several architectural proposals, the board ultimately decided to merge the sixth grade class with the upperclassmen and moved them into the village.
At the time, the school determined it would be too costly to move the seventh and eighth graders to the elementary school it would cost about $5 million to replicate the village school at a new location.
Taggart disagrees adding that the School Board could do it for less, much less, using the same proposals. He said costs would go down if the board does not include a proposed baseball field and if it lowers the contingency fund.
It can be done in under $600,000, he said.
The empty school building would then go to the town which he hopes can be used for town offices another issue that is unnecessarily spending taxpayer money, he said.
Taggart said he presented the petition to the School Board two weeks ago and that two members signed it, though he declined to say who. He wants to present the signed petition to the School Board at its first meeting in March.

Well it was bound to happen. I have been selling a lot of games on Ebay lately. Mostly new unopened games. I have had a really good track record with people leaving positive feedback and being happy. Well I sold a brand new copy of Prototype 2 about 10 days ago for $24. It was a copy I got for $5 at BBY. Well I usually send out a reminder email after about 1 week after delivery to ask if there are any problems and to leave some feedback. Well this d-bag sent me this email just now.
"Actually, now that you mention it. I am very unsatisfied with my purchase of this game. And I was hoping that you had another copy of this game that you can possibly send me. The reason is that when I first opened the game and looked on the back, I noticed that it had a scratch on it. At first glance, I thought it wasn't big enough to affect the disc, but when I put the game into the xbox and started playing it, the disc became unreadable halfway through the opening mission, where the black guy first meets alex mercer and is following him through a destroyed part of the city. I tried restarting my 360, cleaning the disc, and installing it on to my hard drive, but it still stopped at the same spot and said the disc was unreadable. So I was hoping that I could get a replacement disc, or refund please. Because I really would like to play this game."
I think this is a bunch of BS. "now that I mention it"? You have the game 1 week (which is more than enough time to beat the game) and now you are suddenly remembering the game was unplayable? I asked him to send the game back to me at his expense (which I am sure he will complain about) and I will refund him. It is such BS since the game is now worthless to me and I am sure he redeemed the codes. He only had 5 feedbacks.
If he opened it, you shouldn't have to take it back. Just ignore him, and he'll probably not do anything.


text: Irrigation There's an old tale about a giant with a leaky faucet. In his home, the tale goes, the giant's faucet has a terrible leak. Night after night, the leak drips and drips. And since it's only one drop at a time, the giant thinks nothing of it. "Why, that's just one drop," the giant says, "and there are many rivers, lakes and oceans."Soon, however, that one drop becomes many, and the giant's home begins to fill with water. In a few short weeks, the water rises so high that the giant begins to fear that he might drown. So, in a panic, he opens his huge front door and out gushes all the water. Only then, drenched from head to toe, and hearing his leaky faucet dripping, does the giant finally realize what he's lost. More

I really appreciate how tightly-knit the program is; I developed some great friendships throughout my years here. I get to work daily with many of the friends I made in the program, something that has helped the transition from school to career.

The Texas MPA culture promotes collegiality and camaraderie with your classmates, who hail from the United States as well as countries in North America, South America, Europe, Asia and Africa. Their varied viewpoints and experiences add an important facet to your MPA program. The MPA Lounge in the McCombs School provides the ideal place for you to socialize, study or just relax. Through group projects in classes, participation in student organizations and social events, you'll forge strong and lasting friendships as you draw from your classmates' diverse backgrounds.
