Mequon - CherryBerry Yogurt will open in the former B&G Golf location.
It was easy sailing for the self-serve frozen yogurt store at the Plan Commission meeting Monday night.
There is adequate parking in a commercial location for the business, 1424 W. Mequon Road.
CherryBerry has 12 to 14 flavors of frozen yogurt with more than 40 different toppings, according to information provided the commission.
Store hours will be from 11 a.m. to 9 p.m. Sunday through Saturday.
Julie Bartol, director of operations for the Wisconsin and Illinois Division of the business, said there will be some renovations done to the building but CherryBerry should be open for business in July.
The Whitefish Bay Plan Commission recently approved a CherryBerry Yogurt and Bartol said the two stores will likely open within a week of each other. They will be CherryBerry's first Wisconsin stores.

text: The Downtown Nekketsu Baseball Monogatari wiki last edited by Mento on 09/16/14 04:59PM View full history OverviewDowntown Nekketsu Baseball Monogatari: Baseball de Shoubu da! Kunio-kun ("Downtown Hot-Blooded Baseball Story: It's Kunio-Kun's Baseball Bout!", roughly) is a baseball game featuring Technos Japan's Kunio-kun characters. True to Kunio-kun's combative spirit, Downtown Nekketsu Baseball Monogatari allows players (and the computer) to employ special attacks and other violent techniques in order to win the match.Similar to the Kunio-kun Dodgeball games, the player has to fight a series of progressively tougher opponents while following an overarching story. The gameplay superficially resembles Super Famista/Super Batter Up and its vertically aligned pitcher/batter, but tends to switch to different camera views of the ball after it is hit and goes from fielder to base. These are similar to the dramatic shots in the Captain Tsubasa games.

26 year old woman | Denver, CO, USA | Seeking men 25-35 within 50 miles of Aurora, CO
I have the same motto as USA. Characters Welcome!
Hmmm... Let's see. What should you know about me? First and foremost, I love life. I believe in living each day as if it's the last and seeing the beauty in the world around us. I've been a pretty busy person over the past few years. I am currently preparing to go to medical school, working at a hospital and still finding time to spend engaging in shenanigans! Being an artistic geek, I'm a bit of an oxymoron. As a chemist, an artist, and a health care worker I enjoy stimulating both my right and left brain. As a former worker in the service industry and currently working in the medical field I'm a very social person and really enjoy meeting new people. I have devoted my life to making the world a better place by helping people and always try to brighten others' days whether it's a random act of kindness or a friendly conversation. I'm just a southern girl in a big city and now that I've entered a new stage in my life I am ready to find that special someone that I can share new memories, good conversation, playlists and laughs with.

My new found TV obsession is American Horror Story; creepy, risque, addictive...awesome! I also like The Office, Walking Dead, and 6 feet under. I'm a music connoisseur. Some favorites:Radiohead, The Beatles, Menomena and Local Natives.
I love to draw and paint. I pretty much like to do anything crafty from making hair accessories and jewelry to making thing for my place (shelves, tables..etc). The outdoors is my oasis so I'm always down for a hike or exploring this beautiful state
I've been whipping through books lately! Water for Elephants, The Snowman, Crime and Punishment, few other guilty pleasures that I'll keep to myself, and now working on A Tale for the Time Being. Always looking for suggestions for my next read!

WALLA WALLA — Michelle Seitz, Walla Walla Community College's 5-foot-6 do-it-all shooting guard, has been named the NWAACC Eastern Region's Player of the Year.
The Nez Perce, Idaho, sophomore averaged 15.5 points, 8.5 rebounds and 3.5 assists during the regular season as she led the Warriors to the East Region title and a 13th consecutive berth in the NWAACC Championships that begin Saturday at the Toyota Center in Kennewick.
Seitz was also named to the Eastern Region's all-defensive team.
Two other members of WWCC's women's basketball team and two members of the tournament-bound men's squad received postseason honors as well.
Hailey Felgenhauer, a 5-10 sophomore post out of Fruitland, Idaho, joins Seitz on the women's all-East first team and Caitlin Duncan, a 5-10 sophomore forward from DeSales High in Walla Walla, was a second-team selection.
Felgenhauer scored an even 14 points per game over the course of the regular season while pulling down seven rebounds per game. Duncan averaged 11.5 points and 4.8 rebounds.
On the men's side, 6-2 sophomore Dylan Radliff of Richland and 6-2 redshirt freshman Case Rada out of Kamiakin High in Kennewick were all-East first-team picks. Rada led the entire NWAACC in scoring this season with a 24.5 average and Radliff scored 17.5 points per game.
Joining Seitz and Felgenhauer on the women's first team are Riley Holsinger of Spokane, Kim Pickett of Blue Mountain, Angelique Williams of Yakima and Alli Winters of Big Bend.
Big Bend's Brendan Westendorf was named the men's Eastern Region Player of the Year. Other first-team selections are Brady Bagby and Kwinn Hanson of Spokane and Chris Willis of Treasure Valley.
Warrior women's coach Bobbi Hazeltine and Big Bend men's coach Mark Poth were honored as coaches of the year.

Intel iMac for consumers, not Pros
updated 12:40 am EST, Fri January 20, 2006
Intel iMac gets 4.5 stars
Apple's new iMac Core Duo received 4.5 out of 5 stars from PC Magazine in its latest review, but the magazine says that machine is best suited for consumers due to software performance on the new Intel architecture. The magazine notes that Apple's Front Row application is much more responsive: "Front Row is now a totally natural user interface and has less of the irksome pauses we saw in the last iMac G5. You still have to load iTunes/iPhoto/video content manually in their respective programs, but now the content comes up smoothly and almost instantaneously." The review also notes that watching 1080p high-definition movie trailers without the annoying audio or video stutters is now possible without Apple's highend dual- and quad-processor G5 desktops. Interestingly, the review also focuses on the "cool" new features of Apple's iLife '06, which is bundled with all new Macs, as well as its improved performance; however, as most have found, Photoshop only performs well for the most casual users, tiggering a caution flag for Pro users.

My good friend built a tube guitar amplifier from a kit from Allen Amplification and asked if we could build a nice wooden cabinet to fit the amplifier and two speakers.
I had cut some planks from a locally harvested walnut log about ten years ago. The planks sat unused, waiting for the right project.
The cabinet was built using half-blind dovetails. The inlays are holly and ebony. The plywood baffle board was covered with caning. Handle is leather.
Nerve damage from surgery has kept me out of the shop for about 6 months; body and mind now healing nicely.
Great way to spend time with a friend.
The amplifier's sound is awesome!

100% checks of guns on military bases called untenable

KILLEEN, Texas — The troubled Iraq war veteran who used a handgun to kill three people and wound 16 others Wednesday at Fort Hood would not have had to undergo a security screening or pass through metal detectors to enter the post, people familiar with entry procedures there said Thursday.

Young, fun and casual, the Wine Lounge mixes new world wines, artisan cocktails and craft beers with inventive small plates like tuna tartare stuffed watermelon with cilantro lemon dressed greens and a triple cream brie, balsamic truffle, or for a larger appetite try the pan seared ribeye oscar with truffle frittes, demi-glace, topped with hollandaise and a sunny side up egg. Classic libations get a makeover, 1618 style. This summer try the 10 speed with Hendricks gin and muddled cucumber, and the "New Fashion" gives the established whiskey drink a modern revamp with muddled orange and agave nectar. The list of more than 50 craft and import beers is organized by flavor categories running from light and golden to dark and rich. No skimping when it comes to the desserts either, try the lemon thyme brownie with jalapeno goat lady dairy ice cream or a rosé float with local berry sorbet.

Dear readers, we're taking the holiday off from the usual mix of politics and world affairs and Tim Tebowology to talk about, well, reading, which at this stage of my life is my principal temptation — which tells you a lot about this stage of my life.
During my recent trip to Italy — the one in which I basically mortgaged away any possibility of retirement — I ran across the Almost Corner Bookstore, which is, not surprisingly, an English-language bookstore almost on a corner in Rome, run by a semi-retired Irish expatriate. And that's where, on a beautiful autumn day, in one of the world's great cities, I buried myself for hours.
They don't do much Amazon.com in Rome. They insist on browsing. I browsed, and I bought three books for which I had no room in my luggage. If I could retire someday, running a bookstore in Rome wouldn't be the worst way to do it.
Instead, I'll settle for doing my annual column on the books I've read this year. I missed last year to howls of protest (OK, from two people). So as not to offend two more:
Debut novels so good they make a columnist want to quit writing. Chad Harbach's "The Art of Fielding" is about baseball on a small, midwest college campus. But, as one reviewer put it, it's about baseball in the way that Moby Dick is about fish. And Melville, by the way, plays a minor role in a book that is as much about literature as it is baseball and more about the romance, lost and found, in the pursuit of perfection, than either.
Here's Harbach on baseball: "You loved it because you considered it an art: an apparently pointless affair, undertaken by people with a special aptitude, which sidestepped attempts to paraphrase its value yet somehow seemed to communicate something true or even crucial about the Human Condition."
If Harbach is influenced by Jonathan Franzen — as he openly admits — Teju Cole's "Open City" could be ripped right out of the pages of the late W.G. Sebald ("Austerlitz"). The city is New York, the lead character an Nigerian immigrant doctor, who walks the streets and observes in a way that — if you like Sebald — will knock you out.
If you think things are bad now ... . Go back to World War I, when everything went to hell. In Swedish historian Peter Englund's "The Beauty and the Sorrow," he wrote what he calls an anti-history. He takes 20 people, ordinary and not so ordinary, British and Hungarian and French and Russian and German and Turkish, and tells their stories from their diaries, carrying them from start to end of the war and leaving us with characters, and tragedy, that Tolstoy would have recognized.
Erik Larson ("The Devil in the White City") takes us to 1933 to tell the story of William Dodd, a history professor who became FDR's ambassador to Berlin just as Hitler was taking power. It's called "In the Garden of the Beasts" — and we know who the beasts are. But in 1933, they were just catching on. Larson mines diaries (especially of Dodd's daughter Martha, who slept with Nazis and communists alike) to produce history that reads like a can't-put-it-down novel.
But things aren't as bad as they will be. Novelist Gary Shteyngart ("The Russian Debutante's Handbook") is showy, self-indulgent and hilarious. If Orwell had been self-indulgently hilarious, he might have written "Super Sad True Love Story," which is about America in decline, swallowed up by its own consumerism, wherein everyone communicates with an an iPhone-like apparatus that keeps people constantly informed of the important stuff, like your ever-flashing credit score.
We still have books and rock 'n' roll — for now. I bought "The Marriage Plot" in my Rome bookstore for the ride home. It is an airplane read, particularly if you've got a long ride. Jeffrey Eugenides ("Middlesex") puts us back on campus in the '80s, to explore what books used to explore: love and war. We get wars on literature, postmodern vs. premodern, Derrida vs. Jane Austen, and looks at love through the lens (plot spoiler alert) of mental illness, which may be the most appropriate way.
"A Visit from the Goon Squad," by Jennifer Egan, is a novel, or 13 connected short stories, or a sly meditation on music from the '80s. (If you want a real memoir, do Patti Smith's fine "Just Kids," on her days with Robert Mapplethorpe). Egan gets the music perfect, and the connections provide their own beat.
Where writers matter. Julian Barnes is in that generation of British writers (Martin Amis, Ian McEwan, et al) that may be the last when writers do matter. His Booker Prize-winning book, "The Sense of an Ending," goes back to school days to learn about making the wrong, safe choice. OK, that's about what most British novels do. But they don't do it like Barnes.
Best for last. There have been approximately a million books written about the Civil War. But I've never read one like "A World on Fire: Britain's Crucial Role in the American Civil War," which is fascinating and beautifully written and explains how the war divided Britain in much the same way it divided America. We get a look at the usual players, but from different perspectives, including those of the new-breed London foreign correspondents who influenced public opinion back home. All that mattered in this battle was which side would win the war.

Bioidentical hormones are made in
the laboratory and are based on compounds found in plants (usually soy beans or
wild yams). Unlike supplements containing soy or wild yam extract, a
bioidentical hormone product has been processed by a specially trained
compounding pharmacist.
After the plant-based hormone is
processed, its structure is said to be identical to the
progesterone, or
androgen hormone your body produces. (Well-designed
studies have yet to prove this theory.1) A compounding
pharmacist can offer you a custom-made formulation in one of many forms, such
as a capsule, skin cream or gel, tablet to dissolve under your tongue,
suppository, or nose spray. Some commonly prescribed estrogens and
progesterones are bioidenticals, such as Estrace (estradiol).
Just like synthetic hormone replacement therapy, bioidentical hormone
replacement is prescribed to increase or stabilize a woman's hormone levels.
This is generally done during perimenopause, when hormone levels change
unpredictably, and after menopause, when the hormones drop to low levels.
The most important fact to remember about taking bioidentical HRT
is that its risks are not yet well understood. It may have the same breast cancer, stroke, blood clot, heart disease, and dementia risks that synthetic HRT has.2

Louis Oosthuizen's albatross at the Masters last April has earned him the European Tour's Shot of the Year award. The tour says in a statement Monday that Oosthuizen's shot received 46 percent of the voting by golf fans on its website. The South African has received much acclaim for the shot, a 253-yard 4-iron, which pitched at the front of the green before rolling across the contours and in. Oosthuizen said in the statement that ''it has to be the most memorable shot of my career so far.'' It was the first albatross ever scored at the par-5 second hole in Masters history. The award marks the second success in as many days for the former British Open winner. He won the Volvo Golf Champions in Durban, South Africa, on Sunday.

Most People With Addiction Simply Grow Out of It
According to the American Society of Addiction Medicine, addiction is "a primary, chronic disease of brain reward, motivation, memory and related circuitry." However, that's not what the epidemiology of the disorder suggests. By age 35, half of all people who qualified for active alcoholism or addiction diagnoses during their teens and 20s no longer do, according to a study of over 42,000 Americans in a sample designed to represent the adult population.
Only a quarter of people who recover have ever sought assistance in doing so (including via 12-step programs). This actually makes addictions the psychiatric disorder with the highest odds of recovery.Metafilter's own maias on myths surrounding the disease(?) of substance addiction, and their impact on medicine and policy.

On second thought, no dessert for me. CHECK PLEASE!!!
The art world's food fetish is nothing new, triggering equal parts salivation and repulsion we gorge on so-called 'food porn' every day, saturating our screens with sugar. But beneath that candy-cane filter there's a darker side to our fetishisation of all-things sweet. With their Twix noses, salami decolletage and strawberry laces spewing from donut-shaped carverns, James Ostrer's saccharine-warped creations are delectably disturbing. Born out of a textbook childhood junk addiction, his new series Wotsit All About takes sugar worship to the extreme, sculpting mutated, larger-than-life candy characters from truck-loads of pick 'n' mix favourites. Pushing his sitters to the extreme he smothers them in cream cheese, frazzles and ice-cream cones, the food masks leaving a claustrophic, bitter-sweet taste on the tongue.

You may know Neill Jameson as the frontman/honcho for black metal favorites Krieg, who have a new LP Transient for Candlelight Records, or via his involvement in Twilight, the supergroup headed up by Blake Judd of Nachtmystium and featuring members like Thurston Moore, Aaron Turner, Jef Whitehead (Leviathan), Stavros Giannopoulos (The Atlas Moth), and more. But Neill's involvement with Blake Judd goes much deeper than that: Theirs is a friendship that was initally forged based on a mutually shared interest in music many years ago. In the following firsthand account, Neill recalls the history of some of the darker moments of his friendship with Blake Judd, ones that eventually lead to him severing his ties with the celebrated black metal musician, and the stark reality of drug addiction.

How much separates ADHD drugs from street meth? Not much. And where is it all going? "Aside from some foul cutting material, Winnebago methamphetamine and pharmaceutical amphetamine are kissing chemical cousins.

After that, meth breaks down fast into good old dextroamphetamine, the dominant salt in America's leading ADHD drug and cram-study aid, Adderall."

For the Love of Money
In my last year on Wall Street my bonus was $3.6 million — and I was angry because it wasn't big enough. I was 30 years old, had no children to raise, no debts to pay, no philanthropic goal in mind. I wanted more money for exactly the same reason an alcoholic needs another drink: I was addicted. … I wanted a billion dollars. It's staggering to think that in the course of five years, I'd gone from being thrilled at my first bonus — $40,000 — to being disappointed when, my second year at the hedge fund, I was paid "only" $1.5 million.For the Love of Money by Sam Polk
Life's smoke-filled voids: Falling in and out of a cigarette habit
I smoked for years. I would quit for a few weeks at a time occasionally, but I always went back. For me, smoking cured everything; it could be anything I needed it to be. I could celebrate, mourn, fume, and daydream. It was proof that I existed: I was interacting with my environment and leaving evidence, all the while putting forth pretty much the least amount of physical effort possible. It was an excuse to sit and look at things. I could sit and stare into the middle distance and think to myself all I wanted because I was still doing something: I was smoking.

The Poorest Rich Kids in the World
Raised by two drug addicts with virtually unlimited wealth, Georgia and Patterson survived a gilded childhood that was also a horror story of Dickensian neglect and abuse. They were globe-trotting trust-fund babies who snorkeled in Fiji, owned a pet lion cub and considered it normal to bring loose diamonds to elementary school for show and tell. And yet they also spent their childhoods inhaling freebase fumes, locked in cellars and deadbolted into their bedrooms at night in the secluded Wyoming mountains and on their ancestral South Carolina plantation. While their father spent millions on drug binges and extravagances, the children lived like terrified prisoners, kept at bay by a revolving door of some four dozen nannies and caregivers, underfed, undereducated, scarcely noticed except as objects of wrath.

Battle of Carthage (698)
|Battle of Carthage
|Part of the Muslim conquest of North Africa
and the Arab–Byzantine Wars
|Umayyad Caliphate
|Byzantine Empire
|Commanders and leaders
|Hasan ibn al-Nu'man
|John the Patrician,
Tiberius Apsimarus
|Casualties and losses
The Battle of Carthage was fought in 698[1] between a Byzantine expeditionary force and the armies of the fifth Umayyad Caliphate. Having lost Carthage to the Muslims,[2] Emperor Leontius[3] sent the navy under the command of John the Patrician[4] and the droungarios Tiberius Apsimarus. They entered the harbor and successfully recaptured it, as well as the city, in a stunning surprise attack. The Arab forces fled to Kairouan.
As Gibbon writes, "the Christians landed; the citizens hailed the ensign of the cross, and the winter was idly wasted in the dream of victory or deliverance."[citation needed]
40,000 Men[edit]
The emir Hasan ibn al-Nu'man was in the midst of pacifying the lands of Tamazgh (as it is called by the indigenous peoples)idg. when? or Maghreb (Arabic for the west), but withdrew from campaigning in the field to confront the renewed Roman challenge to the emerging caliphate. At Kairouan, he began plans to retake Carthage the following spring.[citation needed] It is estimated that he headed a force of 40,000 men.[5] The Romans sent out a call for help to their traditional allies, the native Amazigh, and even to their enemies the Visigoths and the Franks.[4] Despite having retaken the city, the Romans were in disarray due to the bitter in-fighting that characterized medieval Romania and sapped much of its strength.[citation needed][original research?] The previous exarch Gennadius had been a traitor to the Christian cause, defecting to the Muslims and becoming their vassal. The king of the Visigoths, Wittiza, sent a reputed force of 500 warriors in order to help defend Carthage, perhaps to help check the rising Muslim threat which was lopping off large chunks of the Roman Empire, so close to Visigothic Hispania.[original research?]perhaps?
Hasan ibn al-Nu'man, enraged at having to retake a city that had not resisted the Roman take over, offered no terms except to surrender or die.[citation needed] The emperor Leontius, infamous for his harsh reaction to failure, had also given his forces instructions of victory or death. The Romans did sally forth and brought battle to the Arabs directly, but were defeated. They later preferred to continue to incite revolt through the Amazigh princes. The Roman commander, John, decided to wait out the siege behind the walls of Carthage and let the Arabs exhaust themselves, since he could continue to be resupplied from the sea. The defenders were faced with Hasan's overwhelming force deployed in ferocious attacks as his men continuously tried to scale the walls with ladders. The Arabs combined their land assault with an attack from the sea that caused John and Apsimarus to fear being trapped within the city. Yet, the determination of the defenders resulted in the second and final great destruction of Carthage. The Romans retreated to the islands of Corsica, Sicily and Crete to further resist Muslim expansion and await the emperor's wrath.
John the Patrician was later murdered after a conspiracy at the hands of his co-commander, Tiberius Apsimarus. Tiberius Apsimarus then, instead of taking the step of returning to Africa to fight the Muslims, sailed instead to Constantinople. After a successful rebellion he rose to the throne as Tiberius III,[4] and was later deposed by former emperor Justinian II, now known as the Rhinotmetus.
The conquest of North Africa by the forces of Islam was now nearly complete. Hasan ibn al-Nu'man was triumphant. Hasan met with trouble from the Zenata tribe of Berbers under al-Kahina.[6] They inflicted a serious defeat on him and drove him back to Barqa. However, in 702 Caliph Abd al-Malik strongly reinforced him. Now with a large army and the support of the settled population of North Africa, Hasan pushed forward. He decisively defeated al-Kahina in the Battle of Tabarka, 85 miles (136 km) west of Carthage. He then developed the village of Tunis, ten miles from the destroyed Carthage. Around 705, Musa ibn Nusayr replaced Hasan. He pacified much of North Africa.

SYDNEY (AP) -- Australia's soccer chief believes the 2022 World Cup may not go ahead in Qatar as planned.
Football Federation Australia chairman Frank Lowy said Monday the "last word hasn't been heard yet" on the FIFA vote that awarded the event to Qatar over bids from countries including the United States and Australia.
Lowy did not elaborate on how or why Qatar would lose the rights, but said it related to "the state of the FIFA executive committee", adding "I don't exactly know where it will bounce. The only thing I know is it's not over yet."
Qatar's successful bid became implicated in a broad-ranging corruption scandal that plagued FIFA this year, with FIFA general secretary Jerome Valcke saying in a leaked email that they "bought the World Cup."

Thank God we didn't have to play the Giants. It would have taken them two games to sweep us in four. We wouldn't have gotten a hit - not one - and the Giants would still be batting in game two. The lead would be something like 104 to 0, and Nick Swisher would be pitching for us. Girardi would still be keeping A-Rod on the bench - resting him for the critical moment - and our best hope would be the hurricane.How did they build such a team without spending $400 million on payroll? Because that's what it would take us. Keep in mind that Brian Sabean, the general manager who built the Giants, is a former Yankee administrator. He's the Brian that couldn't handle working for maniacal old King George. We kept the Brian that maniacal old King George preferred. Hmm. And holy crap! look who else is up there in their baseball operations: Dirt Tidrow is the vice president of player personnel. Along with Felipe Alou, a special assistant, and guess who is the director of player development? Go ah...
