You may remember our previous story on 51 year-old actor Doug Hutchison marrying 16-year-old aspiring country singer Courtney Stodden (how could you forget?).
Now, the couple has appeared on ABC's Good Morning America to discuss their relationship as well as the criticism they faced when going public with their relationship.
In the interview, Hutchison claims he had no inkling that Stodden was just a teenager when they met online after she had enrolled in one of his acting classes.
"My world turned upside down…It didn't make me want to walk away, but it definitely was a struggle inside my heart…because I had already started falling for her."
They then go on to discuss their online relationship and the moment he explained to Stodden's parents that he was falling for their daughter.
"I said, Krista (Mrs. Stodden), I don't know if you know this or not, but your daughter and I are falling in love. If you and Alex have any misgivings whatsoever about this…I will respect you, and Courtney will respect you. And we will step back."
Oddly enough, both parents were OK with it. Hutchison then proposed to Stodden upon meeting Courtney for the first time in person.
Check it out below.

Dough Research Continues...
I was given some "protein enriched" flour some time ago and I decided to try it out. I got the data sheet from the company concerned and found that it has 13.3% protein.
I made a batch "neat" and found that the texture was pretty good and it stretched really well - probably the best I have made yet!!
The next batch was a blend of my usual Milan Pizza flour and protein enriched flour with a mix calculated to bring the protein level to 12%. Recipe as follows (note the higher hydration):
Flour 635.3g 100.0%
Water 425.6g 67.0%
Yeast 3.8g 0.6%
Salt 15.2g 2.4%
359.1g Pizza flour
276.1g Protein Flour
The results after a 9 minute KA knead were good (finished on bench). I made 4 balls, setting 2 aside for a 2.5 hr rest before having them for lunch, and the other 2 into the fridge for overnight fermentation.
Smooth and pliable dough - streched nicely. I cooked them in the oven and they browned up well. I would be keen to see how they go in the WFO. Perhaps these could yield the much sought after leoparding that has so far euded me?
What I did note was that the crust was slightly dry (maybe electric oven?), but good nonetheless. Perhaps the quick cooking process of the WFO will produce better results on that point too. There was a slight toughness evident as well but this was not unpleasant.
On reheating the crust was very rubbery and slightly tough once again.
Overall though - I was pleased with the results - particularly the ability I had to stretch the dough without tearing it or it getting thin in spots. I will refine the mix further on this one and report back after a WFO test run.
Re: Dough Research Continues...
Hi Rossco,
If you are using a microwave oven, then reduce the input power to at least half and increase your time. It will then not cause the dough crust to turn into leather!
Re: Dough Research Continues...
Electric oven set on about 200 (preheated) and warmed for about 7 mins..
I have read somewhere that true Italian pizzas cannot be reheated as the texture changes - I think, towards toughness!!
Re: Dough Research Continues...
I am in the process of my WFO build but have been doing a ton of pizza dough experimenting in my home electric oven. I am finding that I need to make a less hydrated dough (as compared to what is called for when cooking at 800degrees) in order to get a proper rise and browning on the crust. Do you find the same thing? With my oven cranked up as high as it goes it still takes 10 min for the pizza to cook. How long are things taking in your oven?
Re: Dough Research Continues...
In regards to the "browning" of the crust - I get that in the electric oven but I am chasing the elusive "leoparding" in the WFO so the browning to me is secondary.
I crank my electric oven up to around 230 C and cook 4 mins one side, then rotate it and finish 3 mins (+ 30 secs if necessary. It prodices quite a good crust with spotty browing from the stone underneath.

Advanced Treatment from People Who Care
The Cancer Treatment Center at Hazleton offers a full range of advanced cancer treatment services provided by a team of caring and experienced staff, which includes our board-certified medical director, radiation therapists, registered nurse, medical dosimetrist and physicist.
We offer image guided radiation therapy (IGRT) using the ExacTrac® system from BrainLab. This advanced technology pinpoints tumors with a high-resolution, low-dose X-ray beam and automatically tracks patient movement throughout treatment with an infrared optical tracking system. These tracking capabilities ensure radiation doses are delivered with higher precision, which minimizes radiation exposure to healthy tissue surrounding a tumor site.
Benefits of ExacTrac IGRT:
- Painless and noninvasive
- Outpatient procedure
- Highly accurate beam targeting and improved precision
- Compensates for minor patient movements, ensuring accuracy and protection of nearby healthy tissue
- Short treatment delivery
In addition to IGRT, the Cancer Treatment Center at Hazleton offers external-beam radiation therapy and 3-D conformal therapy, which enables three-dimensional visualization of the tumor and surrounding tissue during treatment planning. Patients treated with external-beam radiation therapy receive a certain number of daily radiation treatments over a period of seven to eight weeks. Treatments are outpatient procedures that usually take about 15 minutes each.
We also offer intensity modulated radiation therapy, another type of three-dimensional radiation therapy in which beams of varying intensity are aimed at a tumor from different angles. IMRT, as it's known, allows doctors to customize the radiation beams delivered to individual patients, resulting in much better targeting than with conventional radiation. This type of therapy also minimizes radiation exposure to healthy tissue surrounding a tumor.For men diagnosed with prostate cancer, we offer a procedure called brachytherapy. In this form of treatment, small radioactive seeds are implanted within the prostate gland. Guided by an ultrasound device, our physicians insert the seeds with a needle into the prostate. Patients who undergo brachytherapy are usually allowed to return home on the same day. Brachytherapy has been shown to provide excellent long-term success rates with minimal side effects while offering an alternative to surgical removal of the prostate gland.

It must be autumn. Leaves are turning. Geese are flying. And, of course, there's that seasonal frost on the relationship between Gov. William Donald Schaefer and his second-in-command, Lt. Gov. Melvin A. "Mickey" Steinberg.
The two men have never been great pals, State House insiders say. Periodic rifts between the two have been common in the nearly four years they have been in Annapolis as the state's two highest public officials.

PARIS: From Madonna to Michael Jackson, Grace Jones to Sade: Jean-Paul Gaultier paid tribute to the pop and style icons of the 1980s over the weekend with a rebelliously joyful collection for next spring."Just because there's an economic crisis, doesn't mean we all have to act all miserable, and show depressing clothes," the designer joked with reporters after the show, midway through Paris Fashion Week.
"Why should it all be about minimalism? There's room for joy as well."
Stiletto-heeled dancers shimmied around on a decor of scaffolding, mirrored balls hanging from the ceiling, to one 1980s hit after another, as the models stepped out – all cast as lookalikes of a pop icon.
First was "Grace Jones" in a tuxedo – reworked Gaultier style as a sleeveless pantsuit.
A whole series of "Madonnas" walked out, first in a dominatrix cage-dress, then evolving toward the lingerie-inspired look of the pop diva's "Like-a-Virgin" era.
"Boy George" was an excuse for a series of Japanese-inspired print dresses and pants.
"Sade" wore sleek dresses of woven black raffia, while "Michael Jackson" burst on stage in shiny perfecto jackets worn over bright little bikinis, tilting his hat and grabbing his crotch in true king-of-pop style.
"In the '80s there were all these crazy looks, whereas nowadays it's all about copying what others are doing, kind of like clones," Gaultier said.
The designer said his collection was about "people who had an influence on fashion, just as I was personally influenced by David Bowie in his way of being and dressing."
"Madonna was the post-feminist, what came after the bra-burning years. She said 'Yes, I am going to dress sexy, but I am the one deciding to do it.'
"Boy George with his totally ambiguous look and songs like 'Do You Really Want to Hurt Me,' was also making a statement.
"They all had a look, but also an aesthetic that made people sit up and react."a

The word tradition comes from the Latin traditionem, acc. of traditio which means "a giving up, delivering up, surrendering", and is used in a number of ways in the English language:
However, on a more basic theoretical level, tradition(s) can be seen as information or composed of information. For that which is brought into the present from the past, in a particular societal context, is information. This is even more fundamental than particular acts or practices even if repeated over a long sequence of time.
A tradition practice , custom, or story that is memorized and passed down from generation to generation, originally without the need for a writing system. Tools to aid this process include poetic devices such as rhyme and alliteration. The stories thus preserved are also referred to as tradition, or as part of an oral tradition.
Tradition is a knowledge system (a means of transferring knowledge). Economists Friedrich Hayek and Thomas Sowell explain that tradition is an economically efficient way to transfer and obtain knowledge of all kinds. Sowell, for example, notes that decision-making consumes time (a valuable resource), and cultural traditions offer a rich, low-cost, consensually authenticated way to economize on the resources required to make decisions independently.
Traditions are often presumed to be ancient, unalterable, and deeply important, though they may sometimes be much less "natural" than is presumed. Some traditions were deliberately invented for one reason or another, often to highlight or enhance the importance of a certain institution.Traditions may also be changed to suit the needs of the day, and the changes can become accepted as a part of the ancient tradition. A famous book on the subject is The Invention of Tradition, edited by Eric Hobsbawm and Terence Ranger.
Some examples include "the invention of tradition" in Africa and other colonial holdings by the occupying forces. Requiring legitimacy, the colonial power would often invent a "tradition" which they could use to legitimize their own position. For example, a certain succession to a chiefdom might be recognized by a colonial power as traditional in order to favour their own candidates for the job. Often these inventions were based in some form of tradition, but were grossly exaggerated, distorted, or biased toward a particular interpretation.
Traditionalism may also refer to the concept of a fundamental human tradition present in all orthodox religions and traditional forms of society. This view is put forward by the Traditionalist School.
Traditionalist Catholic refers to those, such as Archbishop Lefebvre, who want the worship and practices of the church to be as they were before the Second Vatican Council (1962-1965).
"Radical Traditionalism" refers to a worldview that stresses a return to traditional values of hard work, craftsmanship, local culture, tribal or clan orientation, and non-material values in response to a perceived excess of materialism, consumerism, technology, and societal homogeneity. Most Radical Traditionalists choose this term for themselves to stress their reaction to 'modern' society, as well as an equal disdain for more 'recent' forms of traditionalism based on Judeo-Christian and early-Industrial Age values. It is often allied with branches of Paganism that stress a return to old cultural values that predated the existence of the state system.
In Islam, traditionalism is the orthodox form, which places importance on traditional forms of learning and acknowledges different traditional schools of thought.
In archaeology a tradition is a set of cultures or industries which appear to develop on from one another over a period of time. The term is especially common in the study of American archaeology.

Another high profile curling event will be taking place on Southwest ice, with Swift Current announced as the host club for the 2015 Viterra Southern Women's Curling Playdowns.
Swift Current will host 12 of the best women's curling teams from across Southern Saskatchewan during the Jan. 8 to Jan. 11 playdowns at the Swift Current Curling Club.
Southern Saskatchewan will be the place to be to watch the best women's curling play during 2015, as the top four teams from the Southern Women's Playdowns in Swift Current will advance to the 2015 Viterra Scotties Tournament of Hearts Provincial Women's Championship in Assiniboia on Jan. 21 to 25. Saskatchewan's top team will advance to represent the province at the 2015 Scotties Tournament of Hearts in Moose Jaw.
Swift Current Curling Club President Karen Biese said this event is another opportunity for the club to show their ability to host a calibre curling event.
"Swift Current has always been really well known for hosting very good events. We've hosted the Pepsi Juniors, the Canadian Mixed, and of course the World Women's, so we've certainly got lots of experience at the local, the provincial, national and international level," Biese said.
She is expecting the Southern event will be a success both on and off the ice.
"We've got some great curlers in Swift Current and in the South. The possibility is definitely there that the provincial champion would be coming out of this Southern Playdown and then end up playing in Moose Jaw at the Scotties."
The Curling Club also boasts a series of dedicated volunteers to put on this type of event.
"It seems like anytime that we do have a big event people come out even if they maybe don't necessarily curl any more, but they still don't mind coming out and working at the door or whatever. They just like to be involved."
A series of sponsorship opportunities will be announced in the coming weeks, and again Biese highlights the business community has always been a strong supporter of curling in Swift Current.
"The business community has always been really good to the Curling Club. There's usually quite a good crowd at the women's curling events especially."
"We have a great facility. We have an excellent ice maker, and we really have ice that's akin to any arena. It's nice and keen."

Much in the same vein as his previous album, "Humans & Places", Ulrich Drechsler continues with sad, sophisticated jazz, that falls within the post-bop category. Next to Drechsler on bass clarinet, the trio further consists of Heimo Trixner on Guitar and Jörg Mikula on drums. Much as on the previous album, human emotions play a central role. Not the all-important dramatic incidents, but the daily mysteries, these little things that affect us, quietly, compassionately, tenderly, ... And so is the music. Despite the drums, this can be qualified as chamber jazz, because the mood is still, the moment silent, the context calm. Drechsler looks for the esthetics in melody and performance, and he succeeds well in this endeavour. His playing is great, subtle, full of nuance and emotional depth. Adding the guitar to replace piano and drums gives his music an even stronger fragile touch of vulnerability. Both Trixner and Mikula are excellent, not only technically, but especially in capturing the mood of the music in all its openness and frozen emotions. For lonely or even romantic late evening moments ... and therefore a little too soft in its approach for my taste.

Buffalo Bills tight end Mike Caussin says he's been informed by the team that he'll be placed on season-ending injured reserve because his surgically repaired right knee has not yet fully healed. Caussin revealed the news to The Associated Press before practice Monday, the final day in which the Bills had to determine whether to activate Caussin. The second-year player opened the season on the unable-to-perform/reserve list, which provided him a three-week window to return to the active roster after Week 8. Caussin accepted the team's decision, saying his knee was not yet strong enough to handle the extra workload of practice over the past three weeks. He had surgery in January after tearing two ligaments in a 40-14 win over Denver on Dec. 24.

Off-duty federal officer fatally shoots one PG County
An off-duty federal officer fatally shot a man in Prince George's County Friday afternoon.
Pentagon Force Protection Agency officer, Alex Thomas, saw one man beating another outside a gas station in Clinton, according to police.
When the officer tried to intervene, the attacker turned toward him with a gun. Thomas, who was off-duty and in plain clothes, identified himself as an officer and ordered the other man to drop the gun. When he did not, police say Thomas shot him.
"The officer fired his weapon, striking the suspect in the upper body," said Lieutenant Tammy Sparkman of the Prince George's county police.
The suspect, identified as Ronald Delonte Royal of Accokeek, was
pronounced dead at a hospital.
"Off-duty police officers don't have to stick their necks out to protect us but they do anyway," said Clinton resident Candice Hamilton.
"My condolences go out to the family but if you want to act tough, things happen," said Britney Oliver, also of Clinton.
Police have yet to determine what started the fight, or what brought the two men to the gas station. They did say the victim of the initial beating was also taken to a hospital with non-life threatening injuries.
"I'm terrified because we come here all the time," said Dena Yansaneh. "I usually get my gas here in the morning."
A spokesman from the pentagon force protection agency told the Washington Post the undercover officer works for them. He's on routine, administrative leave.
Homicide Investigation: 9800 block of Piscataway Road, Clinton. One victim has been pronounced dead on the scene. Investigation continues

Participants in the 17th Annual Jimmy Richardson Walk for Wellness hosted by the Canadian Mental Health Association Swift Current Branch had ideal weather for their walk to Market Square on Saturday.
It was with both pride and purpose that participants and supporters took to the streets this past Saturday for the 17th Annual Jimmy Richardson Walk for Wellness hosted by the Canadian Mental Health Association Swift Current Branch.
The Walk is part of the ongoing campaign for the local non-profit organization to create awareness, raise much needed funds, and shine a light on a multitude of mental health issues that affect so many today. Statistically, approximately 50 per cent of visits to family physicians are related to concerns involving emotional and psychiatric disorders, and that mental health issues are the second leading cause of death among young people.
Approximately 30 participants joined in the Walk from the CMHAãs building at 176 4th Avenue N.W. to Market Square.
While the attendance numbers were not as large as organizers hoped, the event remains an important awareness opportunity for the CMHA Branch.
ãThough I feel like we are small, we are mighty because those who do come have a strong belief in the cause,ã explained Swift Current Branch Executive Director Ruth Smith.
This marked the second year the Walk for Wellness has joined with Market Square, a partnership that exposes their message to a larger audience. Smith also appreciated the participation of Mayor Jerrod Schafer in speaking at Market Square.
ãI think that any time you have an opportunity to have again more voices and having our Mayor being one of those voices is really powerful,ã she said.
Smith shared that they are hoping the funds raised this year meet their goal permitting them to purchase a new vehicle for the Centre. This will allow them to expand the opportunities and events that they can take the Centreãs participants to. Leisure activities offer an opportunity to enrich clients lives by interacting with others in the local community, create a sense of purpose and empower them to be a part of social environments by enjoying things such as shooting a game of pool at Lucky Charlieãs, going out to the golf course driving range, or pleasure trips for ice cream.
Smith highlighted the importance of keeping this message out in the community and sharing the need for outside support and involvement from local businesses.

2011 experienced strong progress in wind power capacity in California Grid. According to a report published by the U.S. Department of Energy, California had the strongest addition of wind power to the grid in the US.
High honors were received by several states, which included but not limited to Illinois, Iowa, Minnesota, Oklahoma and Colorado. At least, 500 MW of energy comes from wind turbines, or enough power to give light to 125,000 homes was churned out by these states.
While the goings good and relatively cheap, people would rush to "get into the game" this year, and it could be improved even more for wind energy. Of course, the various federal tax incentives and subsidies that made renewable energy more attractive are now nearing an expire date. The winds of change will sweep across the country after this.
These tax incentives are those that are tucked within the compact wording of the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009. The report reads that one provides a "30% cash grant from the Treasury in lieu of federal tax credits." More than 60% of investors jumped at this opportunity. Another allows wind power projects to "choose a 30% investment tax credit instead of the production tax credit."
Basically, over the last few years it became much easier for wind project developers, which were mostly comprised of independent businesses rather than utilities, to work with investment banks and insurance companies to get their farms up and running. Roughly, around 3% of the nation's electricity is now provided by American wind farms, and are also habitually built here right on U.S. terra firma. At least, it's a fingerprint even though it doesn't approach the pervasive imprint like coal, oil, natural gas or nuclear have in producing electricity.
There have been technical and fiscal improvements in installing the farms, the prices of turbines, and the price of the energy itself, apart from tax incentives, which aren't in the least the only boost to thank for this. The zest with which new wind power projects were created since 2009 is not predicted to continue spreading like seeds in the wind without the continued support from federal policies, in combination with the low price of other energies, mostly natural gas.

What are the pros? great color, great size
What are the cons? none
I absolutely love these. There is some color variation as the other reviewers mentioned. The majority of my blooms are what I would describe as hot pink. If cut frequently, these guys get huge. My plants are currently well over 6 ft high. Very impressive. I wish this one was offered in larger quantities.

What are the pros? Long blooming
What are the cons? None
Mine are more of a coral than soft rose. I have them paired with Karley Rose grasses and the colors accent each other beautifully.

What are the pros? Easy to grow, thrives in heat
First time growing ornamental flowers. These started indoors eagerly, transplanted very well, and are thriving in our hot, coastal NC summer. Blooms upon blooms! These get more compliments than all the other flowers in our garden. Just gorgeous...

What are the pros? Lots of flowers
I love zinnias and this is a new addition. I love the color as it stands out in our hot sun. The plants are sturdy and branch with many large flowers. It holds up in the wind. I started these inside and they transplant well.

Moving Past Jokes about Men Wearing Bikinis
I have seen men wearing bikinis out on the beach, but I never thought that I would be one of them. In fact, I used to make fun of those guys walking around in some skimpy looking bikini type thing but now, I am finding myself drawn to wearing them instead. It just seems odd to me that I have reached that moment in my life where I don't care so much about what others might think of me when they see me walking by in a bikini because I am so comfortable in it. I guess I am getting older and finding myself growing up just a bit.
I know that when men wearing bikinis used to walk past my friend and me, we would laugh and crack all kinds of jokes about them, but it was all meant in fun as far as I was concerned. Now, though, I am finding myself a bit upset with the teasing that I put out there because I actually enjoy wearing my bikinis out in public. It may not be the "in" thing to do these days, but wearing my bikini out on the beach makes me happy and that is all that matters to me.
I do try to not wear my bikini around my friends, though. Even today they will crack jokes about men wearing bikinis on the beach and I always fall silent when they do. I don't even laugh anymore at the jokes that they are coming up with. I feel that if I did, then I would be judging myself for wearing one as well and that is something I will never do. Of course, I don't stop them or tell them that I wear a bikini, either, which is no better than making the jokes in the first place, but I am sure that someday I will let them all know. Then I can feel better about myself.

Printing matters
When you have your own office today it is sometimes difficult to get money for decent office supplies. A lot of businesses are working in survival mode and have been on the lookout for economic ways to stock their offices. Let's talk about saving money on office supplies to have more for other matters in these hard economic times.
First of all, get the cheap stuff. If office supplies aren't intended for the important clients forget about prestige and luxury for a while. Cheap printer cartridges are a great way to save on printing costs but it is also important to remember that printing pages out only when necessary will also save you loads. Make sure every one of your employees knows this. When buying a new cartridge choose from a range of brands like HP ink cartridges or Canon ink cartridges and start from there. It is also wise to use different kinds of paper. Use the cheaper one for day to day office tasks, but keep some high quality expensive paper for important letters. Also it is a good idea to find a constant supplier if your printing supplies if you use them a lot. Look for a firm with great customer service, free setup and technical support.

FLYING into the heart of a hurricane, half a kilometre above the Atlantic Ocean, meteorologist Frank Marks began to fear for his life. Contrary to his expectations, the eye of the storm was no haven of calm – screaming winds were pummelling his aircraft. "The winds had pretty much trashed the inside of the plane," he says. Just when he thought things couldn't get any worse, one of the plane's four engines failed.
That was back in 1989. Marks, now director of the US National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration's Hurricane Research Division in Miami, Florida, recalls the frantic hour he spent attempting to repair the plane before somehow managing to land. He's been flying into storms ever since. "I will never be bored of seeing the tropical sky," he says.
Marks is part of a disparate community of researchers who specialise in extreme weather and its effects on society. Thanks to human-made climate change, events like storms, heatwaves and floods are on the rise, and there is growing demand for people who understand these phenomena and can advise the rest of us on how to handle them.
Marks, for one, is using radar to measure the rainfall pattern within a storm, which gives clues to the storm's size and likely path.
Jonathan Taylor, head of observation-based research at the Met Office in Exeter, UK, also flies modified planes into weather events to study them. When the Icelandic volcano Eyjafjallajökull erupted in 2010 and left a troublesome ash cloud in the sky, Taylor's team flew straight into the haze. The researchers' measurements of the cloud and its ash particles enabled them to predict how long it might continue to disrupt air travel.
If the thought of joining a storm-hunting team appeals, a degree in meteorology is a good place to start, says Marks. But it's not just meteorologists who fly into storms. About half of Taylor's team is made up of engineers who maintain the aircraft and design software to analyse the data collected.
People trained in risk assessment and communication are also valuable to extreme weather research, says Marks. When hurricane Irene hit the north-eastern US in 2011, the governor of Maryland state, Martin O'Malley, asked Marks when he should shut the bridge across Chesapeake Bay. It is a straightforward enough question, but no one had prepared an answer, says Marks, who will be looking for communication skills in future colleagues.
MeteoGroup, an international weather consultancy, is often called on by companies for similar advice. Its meteorologists are quizzed over when specific roads are likely to freeze over and need gritting, when strong winds might damage electricity cables and when storms might pose a threat to oil rigs.
As last year's dramatic images of waterlogged streets across the UK, US and Russia serve to remind us, extreme weather events can trigger devastating floods. Preventing them will, in part, involve investigating exactly how tides overcome coastal defences, and how we can protect coasts from worsening erosion.
That's why Gerd Masselink at Plymouth University, UK, has set up the country's first mobile coastal response unit. As soon as his team hears of an approaching coastal storm, the members head out to monitor the damage (see "A week in the life of a storm chaser", page 49). It certainly beats camping out on beaches in winter, waiting for bad weather to hit, which is what the team used to do. "We realised, if we really want to do this, we need to be more mobile," says Masselink. "So we bought a van and trailer, and equipment that could be set up in one day."
Masselink's team uses laser scanners to monitor the changing shape of a beach during a storm. The data collected will help us understand the effect of storms on coasts and help predict the impact of future storms.
The team is particularly interested in the damage storms do to gravel and shingle beaches. Most of the UK's nuclear power stations are on the coast, and although those coastlines are stable now, they may not remain so. "Sea levels are rising and storms are becoming more intense," Masselink says. His work might be able to tell us how secure our nuclear power stations really are.
Masselink developed an interest in coastal science while studying for a degree in physical geography, which he followed up with a PhD. Today he is professor of coastal geomorphology. "If research is the thing that makes you tick, you have to become an academic," he says.
With coastal expertise, you can also look forward to plenty of opportunities in the private sector that will pay better than academia. These are generally consultancy work, advising governments and companies on how to build and adapt coastal infrastructure.

Big changes coming to News 25 and Local 7
Nexstar Broadcasting's purchase of WEHT-NEWS 25 and the move of Local 7 WTVW's operations to Henderson is leading to big news changes for both stations.
The stations' newscasts will be known by a new name and the brand most often advanced by sources close to the situation is Eyewitness News, which was last used by WTVW before Channel 7 switched affiliations from ABC to Fox in late 1995.
So, who will anchor the new Eyewitness News, if that is indeed what it will be called?
WTVW's Randy Moore and Julie Dolan will move from weeknights to mornings, anchoring with meteorologist Ron Rhodes on what's currently known as NEWS 25 Daybreak, according to two sources close to the situation who didn't want to be identified. Brad Byrd, Shelley Kirk and NEWS 25 chief meteorologist Wayne Hart will be the evening anchor team, with Local 7's Drew Amman handling sports duties.
Breaking the evening newscasts down further, Shelley Kirk will anchor the 4 p.m. newscast solo. Brad Byrd will anchor with her at 5, 6 and 10 p.m., and will anchor the 6:30 and 9 p.m. newscasts on his own.
It's not yet clear who will anchor on weekends, nor is the complete makeup of the reporting staff known, although there is word that current NEWS 25 weekend anchor David Shepherd and Daybreak anchor Jordan Vandenberge will be among the stations' reporters.
And while it's not yet certain if Local 7 will still have its morning or noon newscasts, it is known that the station will still air evening news, at 6:30 and 9 p.m. NEWS 25 which may be known as Local 25, according to some sources will air news at 4, 5, 6 and 10 p.m., as it now does.
The temporary news set that has been under construction in NEWS 25's newsroom is nearly complete. It'll be used beginning Dec. 1 one week from Thursday when the new newscasts go live for the first time. No timetable has been released for the permanent set's completion.
Efforts were made to reach Local 7's vice-president and general manager, Mike Smith, and news director, Bob Walters for comment on the changes; however, neither has yet responded.

Swift Current Indians
The Swift Current Indians opened the Western Major Baseball League regular season with a 5-2 win over the host Saskatoon Yellow Jackets Friday.
Veteran Cody Chartrand picked up the win as he allowed two hits, three walks, and one unearned run while striking out nine batters over six innings.
The Indians scored three runs in the top of the fifth inning to take a 4-1 lead before each team scored once in the seventh to close the scoring.
Leadoff man Matt Spillman finished three-for-four with three runs batted in and one run scored to lead the offense.
Centrefielder Alex Schultz got on base with a single and a walk, stole a bag, and came around to score two runs.
Jake Gonzalez worked three innings in relief, allowing one run, while striking out six.
The Tribe will be in Moose Jaw to face the Miller Express on Saturday and will host their home opener on Sunday at 7:05 p.m. when the Edmonton Prospects visit Mitchell Field.

Some 30 people have been reported missing in Lake Kivu in the east of the Democratic Republic of Congo, after their boat capsized, ship owners in the region said on Monday.
11 people are known to have survived the accident, which took place on Sunday night.
The vessel sank near Minova in the Kalehe territory, 45 kilometres from Bukavu, which is the capital of Sud Kivu province. There were about 40 passengers and a variety of goods on board according to Jerome Moke, the chairman of the association of ship owners of Lake Kivu. He said that the boat itself had not yet been found.
The accident took place at around 1700 GMT and was apparently caused by bad weather.
Lake Kivu forms a 90 kilometre border between DRC and Rwanda. Shipping accidents are frequent as boats are often overcrowded and lack the appropriate signals, while there are few signposts on the waterways.

On this day in music history: June 2, 1962 - "I Can't Stop Loving You" by Ray Charles hits #1 on the Billboard Hot 100 for five weeks, topping the R&B singles chart for 10 weeks on May 26, 1962, and the Adult Contemporary chart for five weeks on June 9th. Written by Don Gibson, the song is originally recorded by Gibson in late 1957. Charles will record the song at United/Western Recorders on February 15, 1962. It is the first single issued from the landmark album Modern Sounds In Country And Western Music (released in April of 1962). Initially labelled "Ray's Folly" by ABC Paramount Records executives who doubt its commercial potential, the album and single are an immediate smash with the public. A major hit in several genres, "I Can't Stop Loving You" will set a record for the longest run at the top of the R&B singles chart that will hold for over 20 years until it is tied by Marvin Gaye's "Sexual Healing" in November 1982. "I Can't Stop" will also earn Ray Charles a Grammy Award for Best Rhythm & Blues Recording in 1963 and will be inducted into the Grammy Hall Of Fame in 2001. "I Can't Stop Loving You" is certified Gold in the US by the RIAA.

On this day in music history: June 3, 1972 - Obscured By Clouds, the seventh studio album by Pink Floyd is released. Produced by Pink Floyd, it is recorded at the Chateau d'Herouville, Herouville in Ile-de-France in February and March of 1972. The album features music (six tracks with vocals and four instrumentals) from the soundtrack of director Barbet Schroeder's film La Vallee (The Valley). It is the band's second collaboration with the French film director, having composed the music for his 1969 film More. Pink Floyd will record Clouds just prior to the sessions for their next studio album, The Dark Side Of The Moon, at Abbey Road Studios in London beginning in June. Working under a tight schedule, the band will complete recording of their film score in just two weeks of studio time, following Schroeder's rough cut of the film to create specific music cues and interludes. The albums' enigmatic cover art (designed by regular graphic collaborators Hipgnosis) features a deeply out of focus photo of a man sitting in a tree. Obscured By Clouds will peak at #6 on the UK album chart, #46 on the Billboard Top 200, and will be certified Gold in the US by the RIAA.

Sequences can be found by performing text searches on the contents of the library. As the searches use precomputed indexes they are almost instantaneous. In order to perform a text search the user must select: the library, the field on which to search, the text to search for and the mode of searching.
These options are described in greater detail below.
The specific library for searching is selected using the menu button labelled "EMBL" in the above picture but this will depend on the available libraries at each site. The default library name can be specified using the .seqlibrc file. See section The .seqlibrc file. Personal files can also be searched by choosing the "personal file" option. Personal files can only be searched on entrynames (all the other field selections are disabled) and this search is case sensitive. This is in contrast to the other library searches which are case insensitive. Personal file searches display only the sequence in the output window of the parent window. Extraction of other information is not possible.
For some libraries it is possible to limit the search to specific fields. The field is selected using the menu button labelled "All Text" in the above picture. The fields available depend on the library and whether srs5.1 or embl indices are being used. Note that entries included in the All Text field are taken from the entry description, keywords, comments, reference titles and feature table. Although all the fields are available for embl indices, irrespective of the sequence library chosen, only certain fields may be applicable. Selecting a field which is not available for a particular library will cause a warning bell to ring and print an error message in the Error window of the parent program.
The text to be searched for within the sequence library is entered in the search word entry box. The search is case insensitive except when a personal file is searched, in which case it is case sensitive.
There are three or four modes of searching depending on whether srs5.1 or embl indices are used. Both srs5.1 and embl indices can be searched using "word", "word*" or "*word*". Srs5.1 indices can also be searched using "srs_query". This takes the form of a standard srs query string and allows more complex searches to be performed than our simple interface will allow. The first mode (word) will find exact matches. The second mode (word*) will find matches which begin with the search word but may have variable endings. For example to search for "trypsin" but not "trypsinogen", enter "trypsin" into the text box and select the mode "word". To find all instances of the author "Smith", type in "Smith " and select the mode "word*". By using the precomputed indexes these two modes are very fast.
The third mode (*word*) will find occurrences of the search word within a piece of text. Although this mode also uses the precomputed indexes it is slower than other two searches. If embl indices are used, a "Busy" window indicator is displayed which shows how much searching has been performed. To cancel the search, press the "Cancel" button on the "Busy" window.
For example to search for "trypsin" with the mode *word* would find both antichymotrypsinogen and trypsinogen whereas word* would find only trypsinogen.
To begin the search, either press "Enter" in the search word entry box or press the button labelled "Search".

Feedback (26 January) makes fun of our job advertisement in IEE's Recritment. The background to this 'odd' advert is that it was for a research associate position on a SERC grant (an odd occurrence in itself) for the development of a cellular automata computer. The odd bits arose from the use of a spelling checker - 'automata' became 'automate' and 'fuzzy logic' became 'fussy logic'. An identical advert appeared in The guardian without any problems, but it's well known the The Grauniad does not use a spelling checker.

Laredo, Texas
Click on the images below for an expanded view:
Location Detail
Laredo-Colombia Solidarity Bridge
This eight-lane bridge has two sidewalks and is 1,216 feet long. It was completed on July 31, 1991.
The crossing is also known locally as Colombia Bridge, Puente Solidaridad, Puente Colombia and Puente Internacional Solidaridad Colombia.
The City of Laredo provides bridge webcams.
Identified Needs
The bridge receives a high volume of commercial vehicles, which are directed to the temporary Department of Public Safety (DPS) facility located outside the crossing. Commercial trucks can back-up upon exiting the bridge in order to wait in line to pass through the DPS facility. Identified needs include restriping pavement markings and improving the exit lanes from the DPS Border Safety Inspection Facilities, as trucks are forced to quickly merge with oncoming traffic.
At the end of the study, improvements will be recommended based upon identified needs of the border crossings. If you would like to comment on the study, please email us.

LevelUp Studio has released a major update to Plume today that bumps the version number to 5. The update brings with it new re-designed widgets, Facebook timeline support for the widgets, new Profile viewer, improved scrolling performance, stability and bug-fixes. The update also includes changes needed for Plume to support the new Twitter API v1.1.
- add support for columns for a single account (app and widgets)
- refresh the look of the widgets
- add support for Facebook in the widgets
- display the Twitter profile banner
- propose to resend a tweet when a picture upload fails
- smoother scrolling
- handle URL redirection on wifi hotspots that require a login
- add support for Twitter API 1.1 (off by default)
- fix issues with the Pull To Refresh
- fix issues with the picture cache
- fix issues with the event logger
While the update does make Plume more bearable to use, the app is still nowhere close to Falcon Pro or Carbon for Android in looks. The default theme is a complete mess with multiple colors making the app look like it has been designed by a kid. The dark theme is much better, and is my go-to choice. While Carbon and Falcon Pro definitely look much better than Plume, the latter absolutely trumps the former(s) in terms of features.
Falcon Pro, the current favorite Twitter app of the Android community, also got a bug-fixing update. The developer has also added subtle animations to the app, probably inspired from Carbon for Twitter.
The bug-fixes include improved timeline position handling, fixed rotated images on Sony/Samsung devices, and brings an option to load inline images on timeline on 2G/EDGE connections.
New option to get inline previews on 2G/EDGE
- New live streaming stays on top of the TL
- New screen transition animations
- New error dropdown when API limit reached
- Improved position holding
- Fixed rotated pics on Samsung/Sony devices
- Fixed auto refresh stopped on reboot
- Fixed tweetmarker
- Fixed in & out sharing
The update is already live in Play Store and can be downloaded from here.

There has been no 73-77 El Camino's produced in model form that I could find so I am making one. (this is actually a commissioned job) Starting with a 73 Nascar Malibu kit and a donor El Camino I have combined the 2 and with some scratch building managed to come up with a pretty good representation thus far. I still have alot of mods to do to correct it for a 73 but it's getting there. I need to take some photos of the bumpers and correct the nascar peices for starters and close up the other 3 wheel wells to reflect a stock bodied El Camino. ( the front bumper is hanging glower for example because I corrected the upper facia panel.) Then add an upper belt line around the bed, and add the other stock pieces.
What I started with after relocating the rear wheel wells to a wagon/El Camino wheelbase. (also closed up the door window to correct it)
Where it's at this morning! I had to lengthen the chassis also from the donor kit.
These are just mock up shots to make sure everything is working as planned.

THE squeaky-clean image of buckytubes has taken a beating. Ever since their discovery, these carbon nanotubes have dazzled scientists with their near-ideal combination of strength, heat conduction and electrical properties. But now the truth is out: research published this week shows they could be one of the noisiest components ever considered for use in electronics.
A team from the University of California at Berkeley and the Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory, led by Alex Zettl, has reported on the first extensive study of noise in nanotubes. Noise is the name given to voltage fluctuations that can occur when a constant electric current is injected into a device.
Zettl found that buckytubes were millions of times noisier than conventional conductors and semiconductors. This unususpected flaw in their character might rule them out for some applications.
"It's good work," says Hongjie Dai, a chemist at Stanford University in Palo Alto, California. "If you ...

J. W. Clarke contacted me at the end of 2011 to do some illustration and design work for the upcoming release of his steak, chicken, shrimp and fish seasoning line – a passion project created for family and friends only in the past, but now wanted to to launch in an online store at the beginning of this year. The labels would be for Pawleys Island Pepper, Pawleys Island Sea Salt, and the seasoning with a bit more attitude, Bird Crap. The Pawleys Island labels were created to carry a bit of the Old South classicism mixed with the eroded-by-surf-and-sun of Pawleys Island, South Carolina; the Bird Crap label was something different entirely – a label with enough kick to match the spice of the seasoning as well as the tone of the name.
For the Pawleys Island labels, I hand-lettered a slightly imperfect serif typography to fit the Southern-beach vibe, but with enough fleur-de-lis accents around the letterforms to be reminiscent of the gentleman's South. I accented the "Pepper" and "Sea Salt" hand-drawn typography with an illustrative scroll. For the imagery, I drew a dilapidated rope hammock (Pawleys Island is famous for its rope hammocks) and set it in front of a vibrant blue seascape. The coloring was all done by hand with digital oil paint in post. All of the imagery was wrapped up in a hardwood texture, and complemented on the sides with light tan, serif typography.
For Bird Crap, I did a linoblock style typography set on a much darker and grungier tan texture. I mimicked the "Grade-A Approved" stamp with J.W.'s nickname, making it "J-Bird Approved" and used Museo Slab as the accompanying typography (the slab serfis going well with the linoblock look). The approval stamp also worked to tie the red cap on the bottle together with the label.
Bearings Guide for Men did a write up on the Pawleys Island and Bird Crap line, "Coastal Seasonings," which you can read to learn more about the spices.
You can buy the seasonings for yourself directly from J.W.'s online store too. Go ahead and get a few bottles of spices hand-blended in Pawleys Island, SC.

Northwestern Lake Forest Hospital Hosts 7th Annual Stroke Survivors Empowering Each Other, Inc. (SSEEO) Conference
Lake Forest, IL - Stroke Survivors Empowering Each Other, Inc. (SSEEO), a volunteer grassroots organization, held today its 7th Annual Conference at Northwestern Lake Forest Hospital's Wood-Prince Family Stroke Center. The free conference, called Conquering the Puzzle of Stroke Recovery, was open to stroke survivors and their families, as well as physicians, nurses and supporting clinical services that treat stroke patients.
"The SSEEO conference brings together stroke survivors and their families with the healthcare professionals who treat them to further our mission of providing advocacy, support, education and resources for all those impacted by stroke," said Phyllis Weiss, stroke survivor and vice president of SSEEO. "It is essential that stroke patients and their families have support and strategies for what is often a very long rehabilitation process."
The conference included sessions about finding humor, inner strength and a new sense of purpose after stroke. Sessions also provided strategies for being a strong advocate for your health during rehabilitation and discussed dietary strategies to increase wellness throughout life.
SSEEO is the first nonprofit patient-supported stroke advocacy group in the nation. Founded in 2004 by stroke survivors, SSEEO is a statewide Illinois group with hundreds of members who are champions for survivors and their families in communities across Illinois. Through its newsletters, website and toll-free phone support group, it reaches families in other states, as well as other countries.
Illinois legislation championed by SSEEO and passed in 2009 established a special set of requirements for hospitals, intended to save more stroke patients' lives and lessen the need for institutional care. The law says that only those facilities designated as Primary Stroke Centers can receive ambulances transporting patients with stroke-like symptoms, to ensure patients are presented at a hospital with the resources to immediately treat a stroke patient. Northwestern Lake Forest Hospital's Wood-Prince Family Stroke Center received accreditation in July 2010 as a Certified Primary Stroke Center.
"The Wood-Prince Stroke Center unites our local EMS network members with emergency services, radiology, critical care and neurology experts in a coordinated team so stroke victims receive the best, most appropriate and most efficient care immediately upon arrival at the hospital," said William Pearce, MD, vascular surgeon at Northwestern Lake Forest Hospital and member of Northwestern Medical Faculty Foundation.
"Northwestern Lake Forest recognizes the long road stroke survivors face after they leave the hospital and are pleased to host this conference and support SSEEO's mission of providing ongoing and sustaining support and advocacy for stroke patients and their families," added Laura Meller, clinical nurse specialist, acute care services at Northwestern Lake Forest.

Evangelistic Initiatives
We have a very strong conviction that regardless of a person's physical circumstances or condition, the Gospel of salvation is their greatest need. Our goal is to minister to the whole person-spirit, soul and body-but our primary goal is to secure a person's eternal salvation through sharing the Gospel of Jesus Christ as their personal Lord and Savior.
Paul said in Romans 10:14-15 NLT says, "But how can they call on him to save them unless they believe in him? And how can they believe in him if they have never heard about him? And how can they hear about him unless someone tells them?"
We must tell them!
We do this through:
- Empowering local Believers to be witnesses through relational evangelism (most effective)
- Evangelistic campaigns
- Concerts
- Witnessing teams/Tract distribution
- Community festivals

ONCE upon a time, when I was a professional astronomer, I enjoyed a stint at a big telescope in the southern hemisphere. During an observing break, I went outside with colleagues and, with the aid of a star map, we began searching the sky for the Large Magellanic Cloud. When we found it, we cringed with embarrassment: this satellite galaxy of our Milky Way was a huge smudge, about six times the apparent size of the moon.
I use this example to illustrate how professional astronomers, reliant on software to steer their telescopes, can be poor at finding their way around the night sky. Despite knowing how stars work, they may have little clue how to locate them. Well, they could do a lot worse than arm themselves with A Down to Earth Guide to the Cosmos.
Mark Thompson, astronomer on the BBC's The One Show and Stargazing Live, has ...

Click Here to see our Litter Announcements!
Breeder of AKC Chihuahuas
My name is Cheri Hill. That is me in the picture
above, with my husband Bob, in a field of Virginia Bluebells. I hope you enjoy browsing my web site. You can see
pictures of my chihuahuas, current litter announcements, and also see pictures of my kennel. All of my chihuahuas
are AKC registered, have champion lines, and are known for their excellent dispositons. I specialize in placing
puppies into loving families.
I am located in Northern Virginia, about
half an hour south of Manassas and half an hour north of Fredericksburg in Fauquier County. Shipping is available within the
continental United States, weather permiting, for an additional charge.
When you pick them up....
All puppies are wormed at 4 and 6 weeks of age. They
have received their first puppy shot at 6 weeks old, and will be ready for their second shot at the time of pick-up.
You will also be given the signed application that you can use to register your puppy with AKC.
All puppies also come with a sample of the small bites Science Diet puppy food that they are eating...enough to last
a couple days.
Health Guarantee
All puppies come with a 15-day health guarantee
against disease and genetic defects that would impair the puppy from living a long, happy life. I highly recommend that
buyers promptly take their puppies in for their second shot and get a health exam during that first 15 days.
I do not guarantee appearance, colors, length
of coats, bites, ears or weights. Each puppy is beautiful, and worthy of a loving home. Just as every child in
a family is different, puppies in a litter will differ. When they go home at 8 weeks of age, there is no way I can predict
for sure adult qualities, and therefore I cannot make any guarantees for appearance.
Long Coat Females are $600.00
for limited (pet quality) AKC registration.
Long Coat Males are $500.00
for limited (pet quality) AKC registration.FULL AKC registration is available
for $800.00.Limited AKC Registration
is for Pet Quality,not for breeding purposes. Full AKC registration is required for breeding and show purposes. All of our puppies arepurebred AKC quality with champion lines.
Only cash, cashier's check or money order is accepted
at the time of pickup. Please do not bring a check, or we will both be disappointed.
Deposits & Pickups
All puppies are sold on a first come, first serve basis.
Deposits of $100 are accepted to hold a puppy, and will be
applied to the total purchase price. If special arrangements have been made to mail a deposit, it must be received within
5 calendar days, otherwise the puppy will not be held.
I prefer that puppies be seen before the deposit is placed.
That way there is no misunderstanding on colors, appearance, etc. However, if a deposit is sent by mail, then the deposit
is accepted at the buyer's risk.
Once a deposit is made it is non-refundable, so please
make your choice carefully.
Deposits can be made by Paypal, but a service fee of
$3.35 is added to the $100 deposit.
Pickups are scheduled when the puppies are approximately
8 weeks old. If special arrangements are made to hold a puppy longer than 8 weeks of age, a 50% deposit is required
and there will be a kennel charge of $50 per week, which will include the second shot. If pickup is not accomplished as
agreed, then the deposit will be forfeited and the puppy will be re-listed for sale.
Check out my Announcements page for recent litters
and pictures of the puppies that are available.

In response to (The) Courier Journal's Dec. 17 trashing Interstate 66 and Kentucky as a whole ...
The first time I ever heard of the "Road to Nowhere" was when Happy Chandler, running for governor in 1953, called Gov. Lawrence Wetherby's proposed Kentucky Turnpike from Louisville to Elizabethtown, the "Road that starts nowhere and ends nowhere." Today, what was the Kentucky Turnpike is now part of I-65, one of the busiest roads in Kentucky.
Thirteen may be an unlucky number for some, but for Campbellsville High, which hosted its 13th basketball tournament during the holiday break, it was another great run of basketball entertainment.
Sixteen teams, three days, 24 games, 42 hours of basketball.
The tournament committee led by Campbellsville High Coach Tim Davis, Athletics Director Jim Hardy and a host of volunteers did an excellent job of moving things along. Thirteen years is a good foundation for success.
I don't smoke. I never have, and the fact that when I pass by someone who is smoking I suffer a mild asthmatic reaction means I never will. Also, there's that whole cancer thing. That's kind of a bummer.
I'm by no means a healthy man. I eat only fatty foods and steer clear of fruits and vegetables - except for strawberry pies and baked potatoes loaded with butter, sour cream and more butter.
Recently I was driving through a nearby community on my way to my sister's house. I stopped at a store, got out and heard a hissing noise. I had a slit on the side of my tire.
I immediately got back in my car and pulled across the street to a tire store. By then my tire was almost flat.
I got out of my van with my two young boys and a man came outside to ask me if I needed something. I explained to him about my tire and that I would need a replacement.
We have a new threat on the horizon - HR 1955/S. 1959 Violent Radicalization and Homegrown Terrorism Prevention Act of 2007.
The only homegrown terrorism I see lately is our own government trying to create a totalitarian police state. This is a government of the people, for the people, by the people. We are not of one mind, one belief, one religion. We are a diverse group of people and we have a right to assemble, to vote and to speak out when our government has gone too far.
Five hundred. That's the number of children whose Christmas prospects were improved this year because of Toys for Tots and Toys for Kids.
We are a giving community, but we're also an active community with many active participants. All the giving in the world does not necessarily compute to a good project. But we're blessed to have a couple of great coordinators - Sharon Dobson at the fire departments and Denise Gupton at Rescue.
As Ross Perot would say (paraphrased): "That giant sucking sound you hear is the $300 million shortfall in Kentucky's finances."
The sabers are being rattled early, I presume to put legislators on notice prior to the Jan. 8 General Assembly. Sabers make a distinctive clanking noise and are about as irritating as the sound of money being sucked out of the state budget.
If form holds true, the next six months will be lean ones - with potential spending cuts and a hiring freeze.
In about a hundred hours the calendar will flip to a new year - 2008. Almost hard to believe, isn't it?
But as we move ahead, we know that promises can be a dime a dozen. The ones we make that are worth carrying through are as scarce as a hen's teeth. But that doesn't mean we shouldn't try.
We may have a few personal things that we're going to resolve in 2008 - trim a few pounds, stop smoking, get right with God, rekindle a friendship, or be a better mom or dad.
