You dont hear Keith complaining about being "black balled" because he did things his own way. No responsibility at all with Oil Can the idiot.
Oil Can is an idiot. The same guy admits he sniffed coke every single day of 1986, and then cries he was "black balled" out of baseball because he wasnt an Uncle Tom ("I did things my way"). Waste of God given talent. Too bad his accomplishments werent enough to satisfy his attention craving ego. An ego that is so big that he cant take responsibility for his own shortcomings and has to blame others.
10s of thoasands of years of evolution produces...
wasnt he involved in that fatal crash on parker 2 years ago around this time?
needs editing:
"Gospel story of the slaughter of the innocents" - the Gospel (or Good News) detail the life of Christ. The "story" you are referring to is from the Old Testament. "The biblical story" is more accurate.
I agree with PaperCity but there is no way you can objectively state BBC and Opa Opa are overrated. Maybe a particular brew, but each produces a variety of quality beers.
Your bias for the Northampton Brewery is obvious - perhaps this is a feeble attempt to bust their sales? Sewage drain off is better than anything Noho can hope to create
she will have no case - her complaints will only be used by her and the liberal media to bash the church when it is their RIGHT to allow/disallow anyone in their organization for whatever reason. this is not denying a student their education - then there would be a case. this will be dragged out and publicized due to the strong anti Christian bias in the media.
Oh and Sodom was destroyed because among many other things it was filled with sexually deviant people. men in the town wanted to "get to now" (have sexi with) the visiting angels....
no name on accused? why post the story? only to perpetuate the "chaos" that springfield is?
Just like all of Manny Ramirez and David Ortiz's accomplishments.
How can a guy named Wilkenson Knaggs get a girl without paying???? God have mercy on them
funny how masslive will post the mug shot of someone pulled over with drugs and not post the mug shot of this guy from North Adams
could see this coming - especially on that road at that time. asking for trouble. right on the corner with people trying to come out of peekskill - very narrow, busy road. it is illegal to park there. NO PARKING - then they look at you like you're an idiot!
crack is whack
great spot - the gulumkis (sp?) are AWESOME!
he is not "opposing the Vicar of Christ." He is opposing the sexual abuse and apparent mishandling of said matter by the church as a whole. Too much is being made for the call to step down when the focus should be on what preceded that statement - the church must take responisbility and humble itself for the mishandling.
It is ironic that this consevative group is taking offense to Father's comments but not speaking out against the abuse
God Bless him. He did much better than Ginger Curran.
The USAFR could have played any song that sounds remotely like the early days of punk being played by some no talent emo band completely devoid of the mental power that would enable them to create a unique sound....so you cant really blame the White Stripes for thinking "they" were being played when this commercial played. No Mr stripes, its another no talent rip off band playing dated, music that requires minimal talent...sorry duuuude
oohh shoot (no pun intended)...look at the fake chinchilla coat with the dope (again no pun) matching yankee hat...word up shorty lemme holla at ya BLAM BLAM - ooohh yo yo yo Shahme just got bust in his head two times God, word to motha...crazy shots just went off
I bet she wears Ed Hardy clothing!!!

National Guard Bureau
WASHINGTON, Dec. 8, 1998 This holiday season, as in years past, American families will come together to celebrate their faith, welcome the New Year, and treasure the simple joys of life. Many of the blessings we enjoy -- a nation at peace, a prosperous standard of living and the promise of a safe and secure future -- are a legacy of the sacrifice, dedication and commitment of our soldiers, sailors, airmen, marines, coast guardsmen and DOD civilians. Throughout this season, as they do throughout the entire year, our forces will remain on duty, supporting operations and guarding freedom's frontiers around the globe.
During the holidays, our thoughts and prayers go out to all of you -- especially to those serving far from home, performing difficult and sometimes dangerous missions apart from family and loved ones. Each of you is a national treasure, whose dedication and selfless service make a tremendous difference, not only to your fellow Americans, but to people in need all over the world. Every day, you show America at its very best!
At this special time of year, Carolyn and I wish you a safe and rewarding holiday season and wish you the absolute best in 1999.

Early "Roadrunner" Dinosaur Discovered
A new, primitive dinosaur species has been discovered by University of Cambridge palaeontologist Dr David Norman during an expedition in South Africa.
The Eocursor
Parvus (meaning
"little early runner") was a plant eating dinosaur less
than one metre in length, lightly built and capable of running
quickly on its hind legs.
The Eocursor
Parvus (meaning
"little early runner") was a plant eating dinosaur less
than one metre in length, lightly built and capable of running
quickly on its hind legs.
At 200 million years old, this creature was one of the earliest representatives of the Ornithischia (one of the two major groups of dinosaurs) and a prototype from which evolved the much grander and better-known herbivorous Iguanodon, Triceratops and Stegosaurus.
The discovery will now provide scientists with an important insight into the origin and early evolution of these mighty creatures that dominated the Earth for 150 million years.
Dr David Norman, also Director of the Sedgwick Museum of Earth Science, Cambridge, commented, "It is delightful to be involved in such important discovery. This fortunate find just shows how unforeseen fossil discovery can be, as I was actually looking for a rather different type of early dinosaur at the time.
"Despite impressions created on TV and film, new dinosaurs are rare discoveries. This one is even more so as it dates from around the time of their evolutionary origin."
The discovery of the partial dinosaur skeleton was originally made on an expedition led by Dr Norman to the Karoo Basin in the Free State area of South Africa.
The specimen was collected and partly prepared in the laboratories of the Iziko South African Museum, Cape Town before being shipped to the Sedgwick Museum of Earth Sciences for further preparation.
When the remains were exposed and examined, skull fragments and bones from the animal's backbone, pelvis and legs were identified, confirming that the Eocursor was a new species.
The specimen was studied by a team including Dr Richard Butler from the Natural History Museum, a PhD student supervised by Dr Norman, and Dr Roger Smith from the South African Museum.
The Sedgwick Museum has more than one million fossils in its collection; these range from the earliest forms of life, to the remarkable wildlife that roamed the Fens less than one hundred and fifty thousand years ago.
Displays include a gallery of minerals and gemstones, the world's largest spider, fossil plants, huge marine reptiles from the Jurassic Period, dinosaurs and Cambridgeshire's very own Hippopotamus.

This is the best idea ever. It was hilarious! Unless you're hoping for a low key weekend.
Then, not so much.
Ah well. I still feel ok enough to hit up some Jillian strength training. And maybe even the gym.
I won't be accepting invites to go out tonight, so don't even try.
Leave me to my red box. And maybe a glass of wine.

Setting the Context
This activity
explores three different hands-on ways of approaching learning
and science. It provides teachers with experiences which
can be used as a starting point for discussions about inquiry
and learning. At a Guided Activity Station, groups are given
a worksheet to complete. At a Challenge Activity Station,
groups are asked to build a tower of a certain minimum height
out of foam. At an Inquiry Activity Station, groups explore soap
foam and associated materials. Together, these activities
can get your teachers to start to think about the different
aspects and attributes of various hands-on approaches to
2 1/2 hours minimum
Background and Rationale
For many years the
Exploratorium has been creating inquiry learning experiences
and environments for our visitors, students, and classroom teachers.
Twenty-five years ago, the type of learning espoused by the museum
and our programs was called hands-on science, because it promoted
active physical investigations which emulated what real science
experimentation looks and feels like. The central experience
in all of these investigations was one of inquiry--observing,
hypothesizing, testing, rethinking, questioning, searching, creating
meaning and understanding through a personal process of learning.
Recently, hands-on learning
has become something of a buzz-word in education circles. Under
the moniker of "hands-on,"
countless kits and lesson plans have put materials into the hands
of students, but many of them have proven just as restrictive
and proscriptive in their use of and inquiry into the materials
as were the textbooks that they set about to replace.
Because we realized that there
was a continuum of interpretations of the term hands-on science,
from tightly guided activities to open ended inquiry, we developed
the foam activity to help both us and our teacher colleagues
make finer distinctions between the different types of hands-on
science learning on this continuum. The foam activity allows
people to experience three different hands-on approaches to
the same subject so that they can compare and contrast their
immediate, direct experience and use that as a stimulus for
analysis and discussion in a workshop setting. Through this
discussion, the sketchy profile of inquiry which most of us
have can begin to be filled in.
In devising this activity,
we chose to work with soap foam for a number of reasons, including
that it is a fun material to work with. The fact that foam
is not part of anyone's curriculum is also important. Teachers
at workshops are used to getting activities to take back to
their classrooms. Using a topic that is not part of their curriculum
helps to get across to them that the activity is designed for
helping them analyze different teaching strategies and not
for classroom use.
Introducing the Activity
The key to introducing
this activity is to emphasize its purpose and design. Give teachers
some of the background described above and tell them that the
purpose of this activity is to let them experience three types
of hands-on science. To prepare their thinking, let them know
that after everybody has rotated through all three centers you
will hold a discussion about the strengths and weaknesses of
each type of activity and about where and why you might want
to use each type.
Divide the group in half.
One-half will go first to the Inquiry Station where they will
spend 40-60 minutes; the other half will divide itself between
the Challenge and Guided Stations, spending 20-30 minutes at
each station. At the end of the hour, give teachers a short
break before reversing groups: the teachers who had participated
in Challenge and Guided activities move on to Inquiry, and
the Inquiry group splits itself between the other two activities.
You need one facilitator for
the Inquiry Station. It is useful to have one facilitator for
each of the other stations but if necessary, one person can
cover both.
Just before the end of each
activity remind teachers about the need for clean-up before
going on to their next station. We use 5 gallon buckets for
cleaning up between groups. Teachers can dump all their foam
into the buckets and wipe out their bowls with paper towels.
If the buckets get too full of foam to hold any more, you can
cut the foam by pouring a little vinegar into the buckets.
After the second hour, when
everyone has worked at each station, "jigsaw" them
into discussion groups of 8 to 12, mixing people from groups
that experienced activities in different orders.
After spending 45 or so minutes
in small discussion groups, you may want to
convene as a large group to share general observations. Each
discussion group needs a facilitator.
(for 25 people)
Spoons and tongue depressors
are used to contour the foam, but you can ask people to use
their hands. The root beer, shaving cream, eggs and cream of
tartar are used at the inquiry center. In the text below, the
above list is broken out into three materials lists for the
three activity centers.
We've found that asking participants
to bring in materials (like egg beaters and bowls) from home
works well.
Guided Activity
This activity uses the attached
self explanatory worksheet. Materials for each group are listed
on the worksheet.
Facilitator's Directions
Tell the group that
the activity directions are on the worksheet, including which
materials each group should get from the materials table. Ask
teachers to work in groups of two.
Give them the following helpful
Remind people that they need
to stop a little early to clean up for the next group. Dump
all the foam into the five gallon buckets and wipe out all
the bowls with paper towels.
Facilitation Hints
Because the instructions
are all on the worksheet, the facilitation of this activity can
be very lighthanded--but you need to make sure that people follow
directions. Since the Guided Activity can be a little constraining,
especially for people doing it as their third station, they tend
not to read the instructions carefully. For example, we have
found that they often miss the "4 inches high"
instruction before question 3.
One of the issues that arises
at this station concerns time. Sometimes one or more groups
finish early and do not know what to do while other groups
others are still working. Alternatively, some groups run out
of time and are rushed or do not finish when clean-up time
is called. In that case, you deal with the anxiety and feelings
of failure that arise. These time issues are valid replication
of what happens in classrooms with worksheets and should be
part of the discussion.
People who have an inclination
toward exploration may stray off task on this
activity. There are several options for dealing with this. You
can try to keep people on task to replicate classroom work--joking
with them about straying off-task often works to bring them back
on task. This behavior is another point to bring to the discussion.
Challenge Activity
This activity asks people,
in groups of two or three, to build a foam tower at least 12
inches high.
(per group of 2-3)
Facilitator's Directions
The instructions
for this activity are quite basic. Like most challenge activities,
one needs only to set the challenge and the parameters.
Tell the teachers (or write
on a chalkboard) that the challenge of this activity is to
build a foam tower at least 12 inches high. The activity's
parameters are that:
When a group has met the challenge,
ask them to continue building the tower as high as possible.
If a group is doing this station first, you can give the participants
a starting point by telling them that 1 tsp. of detergent to
1 cup of water is the foam recipe for the Guided Investigation.
Although this may not be the best recipe, it provides an idea
of workable proportions for soap and water. They can use either
hand or electric beaters or both at this station.
Facilitation Hints
The challenge in
this activity is difficult but can be met. It often proves especially
difficult for people who have not yet had experience with foam
at the other stations. However, some people have found that their
conclusions reached at other stations actually were misleading
at this station. In general, you need dense strong foam at the
base and lighter, fluffier foam as you go higher.
The facilitator at this station
should be the judge of the tower height. To measure, hold a
yardstick vertically on the table and sight across to the top
of the tower. Keep telling teachers how much time they have left to meet the challenge.
As they get closer to the time limit without meeting the challenge,
frustration often grows. For groups that don't meet the challenge,
there is a feeling of failure and "not being good at science." These
are important points to bring to the discussion. Often, in
groups who are doing this activity as the second or third activity,
someone will notice that the old foam in the 5 gallon buckets
from a prior group has dried out and become very light and
fluffy. They will take some of this to use on the top layer
of their tower. The facilitator needs to decide ahead of time
if they want to allow this. Sometimes, participants will "cheat" by
piling the foam onto other objects
despite knowing that they were instructed not to use supports.
In this case, you don't have to force them to stop, but assure
them that it really can be done without supports.
Participants can become quite
competitive at this station. Challenges, and especially the
instruction to go as high as you can after meeting the challenge,
can easily lead to competition. With competition, everyone
except the top group is a loser. The issues of competition
are also important to bring to the discussion.
Cooperation is also possible
at this station. In one session, the groups shared information
with each other so that they could all meet the challenge.
This is another important point to bring up in discussion.
With all of the possible pitfalls
of challenges, it is important that the positive aspects are
brought out in discussion. First, challenges can be very engaging
for both adults and children. They provide a clear goal and
give people the opportunity to experiment and find a way to
meet that goal. Challenges can also push people to do things
that they never would have suspected that they were capable
of doing. In that way they can enhance the learner's confidence.
Inquiry Activity
At this station, participants
are asked to work in groups of two or three to explore soap
foam and to learn what they can about its physical properties,
including what makes it strong. In addition to the materials
that are available at the other stations, provide participants
with shaving cream, root beer, eggs, cream of tartar and whipping
cream. Set aside these materials aside from the others, so
that at some point in the activity you can let people know
that they are available for extensions. If possible, you can
also include a binocular, dissecting microscope so that teachers
can look more closely at the soap foam.
It is important to emphasize
for teachers that this station provides them the
opportunity to experience the "first-phase" or "exploration
phase" of the inquiry process--it does not represent all
that there is to inquiry. People often believe that this exploring
or playing-around stage (also sometimes referred to as the "messing
about" stage) is all that there is to inquiry, leaving off
the other important parts of hypothesizing, testing, analyzing,
drawing conclusions, and developing theories that fit with existing
understanding and knowledge. It is important not to allow
this activity, which focuses much of its time on "playing," to
contribute to the belief that inquiry is about play and not a
process of making real and valuable discoveries and progress. If
people get beyond the exploratory phase, and do find a question
that they can pursue in an intentional way within the time provided,
encourage them to pursue those questions, even if it is in a
direction that they are not sure will be fruitful.
(for 6 groups of 2-3)
These materials should be
enough for both rotations of participants.
Facilitator's Directions
Ask participants
to take a couple of minutes to come up with all of the examples
of foam that they can and write this list on the chalkboard.
This process will engage the teachers' previous experience and
connect their exploration to the outside world. After this, if
this is not the group's first station, introduce people to the
materials that they have to work with--then let them loose.
If this is their first station,
you might need to help people find a way to get started by
offering a "recipe"
for foam, or by actually demonstrating how to make foam out of
dish soap and water. You can also recommend that they look closely
at the foam, add new ingredients to it, build with it, experiment
with the other materials, etc. You may also want to ask the group
to suggest two or three ways to explore some of the physical
properties of foam, including its strength. This introduction
is meant to give people without experiences from the other stations
some ideas of how to get started and to show them that their
ideas are valid--but be careful not to have the suggestions misinterpreted
as instructions. The point is for people to lead themselves through
a process of inquiry and discovery.
Facilitation Hints
The facilitator
can constantly interact with the group, asking questions, suggesting
things to try, and helping people figure out what to do next
if they get stuck. Sometimes, groups that have already passed
through the more structured stations have a hard time being creative
and thinking of things to do during the free exploration. They
may even quit before their time is up. This provides an important
discussion point on how an expectation of structure can stifle
creativity and interest.
Sometimes people ask if they
can use materials that were not set out at the start. If people
ask for items that are available, like food coloring or a microwave,
you might want to provide them.
For the last five or ten minutes
of this station, bring the group together to share their observations
and discoveries. This process will illustrate for them the
importance of the group interaction for building understanding
about inquiry. During this time, emphasize again that this
station is only the "first-phase" of the inquiry
process and that it does not represent all that there is to
Processing the Experience
The point of doing these foam
activities is to provide first-hand experiences with three
sorts of hands-on activities, and to generate thoughtful discussions
about the differences noted and experienced among the three.
The facilitation of the discussions and other processing of
the experience is therefore the most critical element of the
A good way to get people started
is to ask the participants to write briefly about each station
using the following questions as prompts.
Discussion can follow this
writing period, or you can start the discussions right after
the end of the last activity.
Teachers should meet in groups
of no more than 12 people plus a facilitator. Jigsaw the groups
mixing people who experienced the activities in different orders
and who worked in different groups.
An easy way to jigsaw the
groups is to approach each of the Guided Activity groups, while
they are still doing their activity, and ask them to count
off 1-2-3 (that's if you are planning to have 3 discussion
groups, if you are planning on four have them count off 1-2-3-4).
Ask them to remember their number because that will be their
discussion group which will meet at the end of all the activities.
This is only one possibility--there are other ways to distribute
people into discussion groups that you may find more useful.
Discussion Group Prompts
Your choice of discussion
prompts depends on the make-up of your group and what you are
trying to emphasize with this activity. The following discussion
prompts have proven useful in stimulating productive dialogue:
Facilitation of discussions and some typical things
that come up:
· How did it feel to work
in each area--what was your personal reaction?
People will have different
reactions to each area. Some will love the freedom of the inquiry
station. Others will feel insecure there, not knowing what
to do or what the objective is. Some will like the guidance
provided by the worksheet. Others will find it limiting. Some
love a challenge. Others hate the pressure of the challenge.
Discussion often turns to how to appeal to kids with different
learning styles. Many teachers will say things like Now
I know how my students feel when I make them do ___.
· What kinds of questions
came up in the three areas? How did they differ?
Some people find they have
more questions in one activity or another, or that the types
of questions they have are different in different activities.
For instance, the challenge or the inquiry activity might bring
up questions like "I wonder what would happen if...?" While
the guided activity might bring up questions like "I wonder
if this is why ____ happens?" Looking at the kinds of
questions that came up can be a good lead into a discussion
about when you would want to employ one or another of the activity
· How does the timing or
order affect the experience?
Order makes a difference for
many people. Sometimes, people who start with the more structured
activities have a hard time in the inquiry station. Their curiosity
and creativity seems to be stifled.
Sometimes this question turns
to "Which order is the right order to teach in?"
This is a tricky one. Examining why people believe one order
is better than
another helps them examine their teaching beliefs. However, there
is no one
best order and it's good to try to incorporate this discussion
into the questions of strengths and weaknesses of each method
and under what circumstances it is most appropriate to use each.
· What were the advantages
and disadvantages of each approach?
You might want to
elicit or contribute the following specific points:
Challenge Activity
Foam is a material made up of gas bubbles separated from one
another by a liquid film. Foam has physical properties which
can serve as a model for may other phenomena. It also serves
as a vehicle for learning about the complexities of surface
area. In the following investigation, you will explore some
of the physical properties of foam.
(for each group)
Put 1 tsp. of Joy
or Dawn detergent and 1 cup (8 oz.) of water in each of two bowls.
Beat each mixture with an eggbeater counting the strokes.
Bowl A 200 strokes
Bowl B 600 strokes
1) Which foam has bigger bubbles,
A or B?
On the small plastic plates,
build piles of foam as high as you can.
2) How high a pile can you build with A?
How high a pile can you build with B?
On small plastic plates, build
mounds of foam 4 inches high; one with foam A and one with
foam B. Try to make a dowel stand vertically in the foam, with
the pointed end of the dowel down.
3) Which is the longest dowel that will stand in foam A?
Which is the longest dowel that will stand in foam B?
4) Which foam is the strongest, A or B?
5) In the experiments above, what other differences did you notice
between foam A and B?

NORTHRIDGE, Calif. -
This Week's Games
Friday, Feb. 27 • Northridge vs. Texas Tech • Matador Field • 2:00 p.m. • Gametracker/Radio
Saturday, Feb. 28 • Northridge vs. Texas Tech • Matador Field • 1:00 p.m. • Gametracker
Sunday, March 1 • Northridge vs. Texas Tech • Matador Field • 12:00 p.m. • Gametracker/Radio
On The Mound
Friday • RHP Ryan McCarney (0-0, 2.57) vs. RHP Chad Bettis (1-0, 2.70)
Saturday • RHP Ryan Juarez (1-0, 3.00) vs. RHP Miles Morgan (1-0, 2.70)
Sunday • LHP Bryan Harper (0-0, 1.69) vs. RHP AJ Ramos (0.00, 1-0)
After their first weekend series of the 2009 season, the Cal State Northridge (1-3) pitching staff compiled the second-best ERA in the Big West Conference at 3.04.
With four games under their belt, CSUN has seven different position players driving in the 21 total runs scored so far this season.
All nine starters have collected their first hits of the season, five of the nine have belted their first home run of the season, and the men in read have stolen six bases in seven attempts.
As the team continues their preparations for Texas Tech (6-0) in this weekend's series, it looks like everything is starting to click for the Matadors. Unfortunately the only problem that has crossed the Matador's path has been the ninth inning.
In all three of their losses CSUN has given up the winning run late in the game in either the ninth, or in last Sunday's case, the tenth inning with two of those game-winning runs earned via walk-off home run.
Three pitches have been the difference in the Matador's season so far, three pitches that have shaped what could have been a undefeated start to the season, to the record the team currently possesses.
While some fans may start to worry, this year's team has already begun to exhibit the character and maturity gained from last year's growing pains on the diamond, while staying positive off the field.
"This team is definitely confident in their abilities," explained third baseman Ryan Pineda. "How often is one team, any team going to give up back-to-back walk-off home runs? We can compete with some of the best teams in the country, now all we have to do is go out there and prove it to everyone else."
What better time to start turning the critics into believers that this weekend as the Texas Tech Red Raiders, current leaders atop the Big 12 standings, visit Matador Field for the inaugural time in their program's history.
Led by senior infielder Chris Richburg (.450 avg., 3 HR, 10 RBI's), junior transfer Kellen Monreal (.412 avg.) and freshman infielder Scott LeJeune (.400 avg., 6 RBI's), the Red Raiders take to the road for the first time in their season, after going 5-1 in their first home-stand of the 2009 campaign.
Keep an eye on outfielder Michael Reed and infielder Willie Rueda; both players pose a serious threat once on base as the former has stolen three bases in just as many attempts, with the latter having already stolen five bases in six attempts.
With two saves to his credit, senior left-hander Cory Large will look to add to his totals as the primary closer for head coach Dan Spencer, with senior right-hander AJ Ramos also looking to showcase his skills from the bullpen.
This is the third time that Cal State Northridge and Texas Tech have faced one another as CSUN traveled to Lubbock, Texas in 2007 and were defeated in two of the three games. Final scores of the series were 8-2, 11-6, and 5-0, with the Matadors taking the second game of the series.
In 2001 then-head coach Mike Batesole made the trip to Lubbock, marking the inaugural series between the two programs. In that series, Northridge took the first game of the series 9-3, but dropped the last two by a respective score of 3-2 and 9-2.
In conjunction with the Matador Athletics Hall of Fame celebration taking place throughout the weekend, the 1970 Baseball National Championship team will be honored in a pregame ceremony taking place before the start of Saturday's game.
Former Matador Sports Information Director Joe Butita will serve as Master of Ceremonies for the event as CSUN welcomes back then-Head Coach Bob Hiegert and his championship squad. It will be the first time in the school's history that a team will be inducted into the Hall of Fame.
The six-game homestand will come to an end next Tuesday and Wednesday as the Cal State Northridge Matadors will face another team making their debut appearance at Matador Field, the Evansville Purple Aces. Both games are scheduled to start at 2:00 p.m.

How to Choose a Medicare Part D Drug Plan
Medicare Prescription Drug Plans are also known as Part D plans. They help you pay for prescription drugs. Medicare works with insurance companies and other private companies to offer many drug plans. You'll want to look at each plan to see how much it costs, what drugs it covers, and what pharmacies it works with.
To get a Medicare Prescription Drug Plan, you must already have Medicare Part A and Part B. You will pay for this drug plan in addition to what you pay for Parts A and B. If you have trouble paying, you may be able to get financial aid.
You can find and compare Part D plans available near you by using the Medicare Plan Finder.
Once you sign up for a plan, you may not be able to make changes for a year. Here are some things to consider to ensure you make the best choice for you:
Make sure that the drugs you need are on the plan's drug list, called its formulary. A drug plan won't help pay for medicines that aren't on its list. Be thorough and check the details. Even if a drug is on the formulary, look closely to make sure it's covered at the dose and quantity you need. Also look to see if the plan requires you to get prior approval from your doctor for the medicine before it helps pay for it.
If drugs you need aren't listed, talk to your doctor before you enroll in a plan. Your doctor may be able to prescribe different medicines that will work as well.
Compare the costs. The deductibles, premiums, and copays or coinsurance for Medicare prescription drug plans will be different.
Check the pharmacies. Some plans will only work with certain pharmacies. So make sure that the pharmacy that you use -- or another one nearby -- is on the list. If you like to have your medicines delivered by mail, check for that, too.
Once you've chosen the plan that best fits your needs, call the specific plan to find out how to enroll. You will probably receive a form in the mail that you can fill out and return. You can also enroll online. See Medicare Eligibility and Enrollment to learn more about the best times to enroll.
For more information about Medicare Prescription Drug Plans, see the Medicare web site or call 800-MEDICARE (800-633-4227).

Gear Review
Arrived in poor condition
I'm not sure who's to blame but the socks I ordered were clearly used. There was a gash down the heel side, defined sweat stains on the soles, and severe damage to the elastic. What's worse is that I paid more for the shipping than the actual sock cost me, then an additional $7 to send it back, so in the end a single pair of socks cost me about $25. Realcyclist lost some points in my book on this one.
Debbie C
Wonder if they were returned by someone else previously??? Someone else suggested that before...but if they have the tags on them, I doubt it.
You're right about having to pay the return shipping for defective product...I've had this happen, too...

I tried to force boot mario all stars in ntsc480p, and alas, it doesn't work, it crashes the Wii and unsync's the controller. Is that a neogamma problem then, or have I just chosen the wrong commands? or, can all stars even be force booted in ntsc? If I pick another loader to replace neo gamma what would you guys recommend? also, is there any loader that i can use to play pal virtual console games such as metroid or castlevania in ntsc?
Boot the game in pal format. Sometimes this resolves the problem. And not all TVA support ntsc or pal, you might want to check in to that.Originally Posted by Dermorama

Plankton make tasty treats for bowhead whales, sea birds and fish. Benthos, organisms that live near the ocean floor, nourish walruses, diving ducks, gray whales, bearded seals and various fish.

State officials have promised for months that the higher education merger would save millions of dollars, but it wasn't clear until now exactly when and how those savings would be made.
This week the state Board of Regents for Higher Education released a list of 24 positions that will be eliminated in the state university and community college systems, mostly high-paying administrative jobs with an average salary of $141,000.
"I think it will be close to $5 million, if not a little over" in savings, said Michael Meotti, executive vice president of the new Board of Regents for Higher Education.
A listing of the jobs, including assistant vice chancellors and human resource and finance administrators, says the total saved will be $4.734 million.

IBM Global Business Services refines its business technology value proposition
I spent two days last week at an IBM Global Business Services (GBS) analyst event titled 'Transforming the Front Office'
By Forrester Analysts | Published 15:27, 23 November 12
- The company is shifting its focus to enabling the front office. Bridget van Kralingen, SVP at GBS, noted that, like many of its competitors, IBM recognises the importance of the "front office" to technology decisions. It's placing more emphasis on serving parts of the business that drive better customer interactions, create better products, and inform better marketing decisions.
As an example, IBM highlighted the links between its more "front office"-focused IBM Interactive marketing organisation and its more traditional outsourcing work. To me, connecting the front office to more traditional IT capabilities is a welcome strategy — one that aligns with Forrester's view of business technology.
- BAO is leading in a real services market. Almost 3 years ago, when I wrote about the launch of IBM's Business Analytics and Optimisation (BAO) services group, I loved the aspiration but was a bit skeptical about the core value proposition. Fred Balboni, Worldwide BAO Leader, made a case that his BAO services group is well beyond experimental mode and now in a growth position.
This position is confirmed by Forrester's own Liz Herbert and Boris Evelson, who explored the BI Services marketplace and positioned IBM as a Leader in Forrester's recent Business Intelligence Services, Q4 2012 Services Wave.
- Analytics can change outsourcing relationships. A topic that is very near to my heart is innovation in services relationships. Mark Chapman, the Global Leader of Strategy and Transformation Services, led a discussion that focused on the power of analytics in outsourcing.
Mark and his IBM panel made a case that we are moving from a focus on "outsourcing for efficiency" towards "outsourcing for effectiveness," and that the ability to use analytics to improve traditional application and maintenance work will be a critical part of services innovation.
This focus on analytics and business outcomes is distinct from some of IBM's competitors, who are more focused on IP sharing as their differentiators (there's overlap here, but at the core the ability to apply analytics capabilities is different from just developing software solutions).
Or are those two things now the same thing? For now, the answer to those questions may depend on who you are speaking with. Overall, I'd say IBM GBS is doing a good job positioning itself, with a distinct value proposition, for the future of business technology.

I recently joined a cookbook review club being hosted by Cooking For A Vegan Lover and the premise is to review recipes in the cookbook that is chosen. You have to actually make 3-5 of the recipes in the book and essentially talk about it.
The cookbook for this month's cookbook club is Appetite for Reduction by Isa Chandra Moskowitz. The day I made the decision to join the book club I ran out and bought it. While I was there I also bought another book by Ms Moskowitz titled Vegan Cupcakes Take Over The World. I was beyond excited to try out recipes….all of them.
So with the idea of getting the review done by March 26 I figured I couldn't make them all. I sat down and chose the recipe titles that intrigued me the most. I then gave Karen the book and told her to pick the recipes that were intriguing to her. From there we chose the 5 recipes that I would re-create for the cookbook club.
I decided that I was going to make burgers and fries or a classic American meal but of course it would be vegan. I chose to make the Lentil Chipotle Burgers with a side of Scallion Potato pancakes.
Lentil Chipotle Burgers
My thoughts on this recipe immediately were that is not a lot of ingredients and they are going to be easy to pick up. My second thought was that I needed to make the lentils first since that involves cooking the lentils until they are done and that could take about 30-40 minutes.
The tip in the cookbook was great for those not familiar with their way around a kitchen as it suggested to assemble everything else while the zucchini was cooking. I took it one step further and started assembling everything while the lentils were cooking so that once the lentils were done the zucchini mixture was in the food processor waiting for them.
I made one change to her recipe and instead of using regular whole wheat bread crumbs I went with Panko bread crumbs (because the scallion potato pancakes called for panko why get a whole other set of bread crumbs I thought.)
Once everything was in the food processor you could see the mixture come together quickly and knew you were about to get a tremendously hearty veggie burger.
I divided the mixture up according to the recipe and wound up with 6 burgers. Once they hit the hot pan and started sizzling my excitement grew and grew. I already knew they would taste great because I had to taste the mixture for seasoning purposes. The patties cooked well and held their shape unlike other veggie or bean burgers I have made in the past.
I would say that if you are trying or interested in being a vegetarian but still want to feel like you are eating meat this is a great burger for that feeling.
Scallion Potato Pancakes
If you are going to eat a burger you gotta have fries with them right? I decided I wanted potatoes with my burger but instead of going with the old cut into french fries and coat with oil and bake I went with the potato pancakes and this was a great idea. The plate came together wonderfully and the recipe was easy to follow.
Similar to the burgers I made one change and that was to use sweet potatoes instead of yukon gold potatoes. I can't recall the last time I ate a white potato and so I had sweet potatoes on hand and just went with it.
Again, the main goal was to get the sweet potatoes boiled since that would take longer than any other part of the recipe. As a matter of fact I started that before anything else.
Once the time for waiting for water to boil (I promise I did not watch the pot the entire time) the recipe comes together quickly and is simple. Combine all the ingredients and mash to remove the lumps. Once that is done dip into breading and bake. Simple and easy.
I will say that I had to bake them longer than the recipe called for but that may be because I used sweet potatoes instead of the yukon golds. It turned out to not be a problem.
This is a terrific side to the Lentil Chipotle Burgers and I would also eat this for breakfast. As a matter of fact I would eat these at anytime they came out that good.
As you can see I added some spinach and tomato to the burger and served it on a whole wheat thin bun. The scallion potato pancakes had an olive salad placed on top for a little salty flavor.
Like any good meal the ingredients were simple and the recipes easy but the flavor was outstanding. This is a meal I would make over and over and not get tired of it.
In addition to that is the nutritional information for these two recipes (per serving): 310 calories, 4g Fat, 11g Fiber, 13g Protein, 58g Carbs
My version will be slightly different because of the whole wheat thin bun and addition of spinach and tomato.
And lastly let's discuss cost. I like to review costs because every time I speak with somebody about healthy eating the issue of cost comes up. For this meal which wound up with 4 complete meals (1 lentil burger and 2 scallion potato pancakes) plus 2 extra lentil burgers I spent a total of $21.70. On average that comes out to $5.43 for 4 complete meals with leftovers. What do you spend on average at McDonald's? What do you spend on average for chopped meat? If it is the same or more then you can eat healthy once a week without breaking the bank.

After following in his brother's footsteps, Nate Cadogan has decided to walk down his own path.
After an up and down collegiate career with Penn State, Cadogan has decided to transfer before the start of his senior campaign.
"I had a conversation with head coach Bill O'Brien," Cadogan said. "I have a goal of making the league (National Football League) some day and I wasn't going to get enough playing time."
The former Portsmouth Trojan appreciated the conversation with O'Brien.
"He put all of the cards on the table to help me make the best decision," Cadogan said.
The former three-star recruit has not made a decision on his next college destination.
"I am going to start calling schools to see who's looking for a left tackle or defensive tackle," Cadogan said. "I might leave (Division I) alone because of my situation. It's rare to come in and take over at that level."
Because of NCAA sanctions against Penn State, stemming from the Jerry Sandusky child abuse scandal, Cadogan will not be penalized for transferring. Under normal circumstances, a player deciding to transfer would have to sit out a year before being eligible to play the following season.
Cadogan reflected on the sanctions levied against the University by NCAA President Mark Emmert.
"It was an awkward situation," Cadogan said. "We weren't sure what was going on. We just pulled together and kept the tradition going despite the distraction."
Cadogn's career accomplishment came in a come-from-behind effort against the Northwestern Wildcats, which gave the late Joe Paterno his 400th career victory. Cadogan caught the game winning three-yard touchdown pass in the victory.
Although the University of Penn State has been under constant scrutiny, Cadogan is leaving Happy Valley with positive memories.
"It was a great college experience," Cadogan said. "The staff has changed since I was recruited but I had great times."

Grimaldi's Pizzeria will partner with Lowcountry Lab Rescue on June 29 from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. for their inaugural adoption event on behalf of the Charleston no-kill animal welfare organization.
Lowcountry Lab Rescue depends on community support to save the lives of hundreds of dogs each year. Grimaldi's Pizzeria will provide each person who completes paperwork for the dog adoption process at the event and then finalizes adoption with a $50 gift certificate to celebrate his or her new "slice of puppy love." The event will take place at Mount Pleasant Towne Center on the patio outside Grimaldi's Pizzeria.
Alan Willett, Grimaldi's general manager, has offered that anyone who drops off a donation of bedding, stainless steel bowls, blankets, dog toys or a cash donation during the week prior to the event will receive a Grimaldi's $5 gift card.
On the day of the event, he and his staff will provide free mini pizza bites and cannoli tastings while visitors mix and mingle with the pups.
"Grimaldi's Pizzeria has a long-standing tradition of participating in community events centered on the protection of animals," said Willett. "Our goal is to help save the lives of as many dogs as we can."
Grimaldi's Pizzeria is famous for their award-winning hand-tossed, coal-fired brick oven pizzas and calzones, fresh salads and delicious desserts. For more information, visit www.grimaldispizzeria.com.

KPD: Student caught with unloaded .357 at Bearden Middle School
KNOXVILLE — A seventh-grader is in custody after authorities allegedly confiscated an unloaded handgun from him at Bearden Middle School this morning, police said.
The .357 magnum allegedly was found in the boy's possession following a tip, said Knoxville Police Department spokesman Darrell DeBusk.
No ammunition was discovered, he added.
The middle-schooler was charged with possession of a handgun on school property and transported to the Richard L. Bean Juvenile Service Center, DeBusk said.
Knox County Schools spokeswoman Melissa Ogden said it was the suspect's fellow students who alerted authorities about the gun.
"Thanks to the proactive steps of some of the students at Bearden Middle School, a firearm was confiscated from a student today," Ogden said in a news release. "The (BMS) administrators, teachers and security personnel handled the situation admirably and with no interruption to the instructional day."
The parents of BMS students were notified about the incident this afternoon, she said.
More details as they develop online and in Tuesday's News Sentinel.

The annual meeting took place in New Orleans and is the largest international organization of academic bible scholars in the world.

Prof. Jane Kirtley was quoted in "How Much Threat Raised by Threat" in National Law Journal, discussing whether blogger and Internet radio host Hal Turner's postings calling three 7th Circuit judges "traitors" and stating that "these judges deserve to be killed" constitute true threats. Prof. Kirtley argued that Turner's remarks may be "rhetorical hyperbole," but that his use of specific identifying information about the judges might qualify as a "true threat," which is not protected by the First Amendment. She further noted that unless someone has acted on his exhortations, it may be hard to argue that they constitute incitement to violence.

Penn State-Michigan Game Notes
Oct. 8, 2013
The Last Meeting
October 30, 2010
University Park, Pa.
The Nittany Lions and Wolverines rank among the 12 programs nationally with at least 725 all-time victories.
The series between the Nittany Lions and Wolverines began in 1993 when Penn State joined the Big Ten and the two teams played during each of Penn State's first 10 years as a conference member. The Wolverines own a 10-6 edge in the series, but the Lions have won three straight on-field meetings, including a 41-31 decision at Beaver Stadium in 2010.
True freshman quarterback Christian Hackenberg broke the Penn State single game record with 55 pass attempts against the Hoosiers, moving past Kerry Collins who attempted 54 passes at BYU in 1992. Hackenberg set career-highs for completions (30), passing yardage (340) and touchdown passes (3) against the Hoosiers.
Allen Robinson made 12 catches for 173 yards and two touchdowns against the Hoosiers. His catch total was No. 2 in Penn State single game history to Freddie Scott's 13 catches vs. Wisconsin in 1995. Robinson's yardage total was the eighth highest school single game total and second highest in his career (197 vs. Indiana, 2012).
Hackenberg leads the Big Ten in completions (109), is second in passing yards (273.4 ypg) and fourth in total offense. Robinson leads the Big Ten in receiving yards (124.2 ypg) and receptions (7.6 rpg), and is tied for first in receiving TD (5). He is seventh in nation in receiving yards; 12th in receptions.
Michigan is led by dual-threat quarterback Devin Gardner's 318 rushing yards and 1,036 passing yards. Gardner has thrown for eight touchdowns on the ground and has run for six more. Jeremy Gallon has been on the receiving end of four TD passes and has a team-high 24 catches and 367 yards. Fitzgerald Toussaint has 397 yards rushing and seven scores.
