Betty White is one popular lady! First it was a hosting gig on SNL and now rumor has it that she is in talks to be a contestant on Dancing with the Stars next season.
"Dancing With The Stars would love to have Betty White grace the dance floor next season," an insider told Popeater.
"Not only would she guarantee great ratings, she would also make it easier for a lot of big celebrities — who up to now have been sitting on the fence — to sign on. There is no one bigger or more respected than Betty White."
Betty hasn't sign on just yet, because she is worried how it might make her look especially with all the younger contestants on the show.
We say go for it! Meanwhile, Betty's very impressive SNL performance gave the show its highest ratings in 18 months.

In a piece for the Huffington Post, Sonia Ospina calls the civil rights group's alignment with the soda industry an example of "leadership failure" — but the NAACP isn't alone. Ospina outlines a five-point plan for everyone involved in this story.
A New York Times article this week, "In N.A.A.C.P., Industry Gets Ally Against Soda Ban," seems to indicate a leadership failure across sectors.
According to the article, the New York chapter of the NAACP and the Hispanic Federation, two institutions committed to representing the interests of African Americans and Latinos, joined the soda industry in fighting a New York City government ban on big sodas. This is despite the fact that African Americans and Latinos are collectively approaching a 70 percent obesity rate in the city, a figure even worse in many low-income areas.

OKLAHOMA CITY – Earlene Adkisson and her sister, Sandra Cisper, suspected someone was stealing from their mother at Quail Creek Nursing and Rehabilitation Center.
"When we looked at the camera and saw that; we couldn't believe it, unreal," she said.
The hidden camera video revealed so much more.
Eryetha Mayberry, 96, was being physically and emotionally abused by two caregivers.
That was April 16 of last year.
Citizen advocate Wes Bledsoe said, "I think it's an absolute failure by the Department of Health protecting nursing residents in Oklahoma."
Just outside the State Department of Health, Mayberry's family blasted the agency for not doing nearly enough to protect our most vulnerable citizens.
"If we had OSU and OU football teams ranking as low as this in the NCAA, the president and coaches would be fired," Bledsoe said. "Maybe we should fire people running these agencies to get better care for these nursing homes."
Mayberry's daughters said the agency has only cited a handful of nursing homes in recent years, despite abuse like this.
Cisper told us, "I think a bunch of people are not doing their jobs and need to be fired."
Officials with the Department of Health sent us this statement saying they were satisfied with Quail Creek's handling of the Mayberry case.
"The nursing facility took prompt and appropriate actions to intervene and protect residents, and to conduct a thorough investigation. The Department of Health has zero tolerance for abuse or neglect of residents in nursing facilities."
Mayberry's daughters said they aren't convinced and believe it's up to families to monitor what's going on behind nursing home closed doors.
"It isn't just my mother, this is going on right now somewhere," she said. "Everybody needs to put cameras in rooms."
Senate Bill 587 addresses the issue of cameras in nursing home rooms.
It's been watered down from the original version but will be considered on the Senate floor Tuesday morning.

FRIDAY, Aug. 1, 2014 (HealthDay News) -- The U.S. Food and Drug Administration announced on Friday that it approved a new drug, Jardiance, to help fight type 2 diabetes.
Jardiance (empagliflozin) "can be used alone or added to existing treatment regimens to control blood sugar levels in the overall management of diabetes," Dr. Curtis Rosebraugh, director of the Office of Drug Evaluation II in the FDA's Center for Drug Evaluation and Research, said in an agency statement.
The FDA also recommended that Jardiance be used along with lifestyle changes, such as eating a healthy diet and exercising regularly. The combination of medication and lifestyle modification may improve blood sugar management for people with type 2 diabetes, they said.
Over 26 million Americans are currently affected by type 2 diabetes, which accounts for about 90 percent of cases of diabetes, according to the agency.
Jardiance, made by Connecticut-based Boehringer Ingelheim Pharmaceuticals, falls into the class of diabetes medicines known as "sodium glucose co-transporter 2 (SGLT2) inhibitors." These drugs work by stopping blood sugar, or glucose, from getting reabsorbed by the kidneys. That means that more glucose is excreted by the kidneys and blood sugar levels go down, the FDA explained. Other drugs in this class of medications include Invokana (canagliflozin) and Farxiga (dapagliflozin).
The agency said the safety and effectiveness of Jardiance was tested in seven clinical trials involving almost 4,500 people with type 2 diabetes. The studies showed that Jardiance improved blood sugar levels compared to a "dummy" placebo drug.
The drug has also been studied for use alongside other medications, such as metformin, sulfonylureas, pioglitazone (Actos) and insulin. The FDA stressed that it is ordering post-marketing studies on Jardiance, with a focus on any potential cardiovascular effects, as well as safety and effectiveness in children.
Jardiance can trigger dehydration, which can cause low blood pressure, dizziness and impaired kidney function, the FDA added. This means that elderly people and those with already impaired kidney function may be at heightened risk when taking Jardiance. The drug should not be used by people with type 1 diabetes, according to the FDA.
The most common side effects seen with Jardiance included urinary tract infections and female genital infections, the FDA said.

Mario Durante needs a lot more than two hands to count the ways he's shaped business in Milton.
Wednesday he turns 80, but still looks as though he might only be approaching retirement age. May is also the month he celebrates 50 years of doing business here.
From the gas station on Hwy. 25 to the storage business on Peru Road, the Durante business name has been synonymous with success.
Personally, Durante has grown from a small-town Italian immigrant to a smart, successful businessman.
Along the way, he's maintained the same down-to-earth humbleness that's won him friends and a valuable reputation.
As he puts it, "I'm still down here," he, raises his hand a foot off the ground, "not up here," pointing to the ceiling.
"I've stayed the same…I'm still the same guy."
Hard worker doesn't come close to doing Durante justice. He's worked his tail off and then some. Even now, approaching 80 years old, he's up at 6 a.m. ready to go to the office off Steeles Avenue.
"I've got stacks of mail this high to open," said the curly-haired gentleman, "and phone calls to make…business to do."
In 1953, the same year Queen Elizabeth II was crowned Queen of England, Durante arrived in Halifax and headed directly to Milton with $19 in his pocket — money he borrowed from his dad in Italy to come here. His brother was his sponsor, having arrived two years earlier.
Life here started out tough for Durante, who was only 19. His brother told him he could stay with him in Milton for a week, free room and board, but after that he was on his own.
Fortunately for him, Durante wasn't afraid of hard work.
The only words he knew in English were "Have you got a job for me?" so he landed a job crushing limestone at the quarry near Kelso. Pay was $1.25 per giant pail-full. The back-breaking job was five days a week, but being a clever businessman, Durante says he found a way to get into the site after hours on Saturday so he could work an extra half day, fill four more buckets and be ahead $5 come Monday morning.
He was living on Peru Road at the time, "where most of the immigrants settled at the time", he said. He saw his future wife one day when she was visiting from Toronto at 17 years old.
"Whoa, she was looking good," he said. "I'm going to marry her."
A few years later, he did just that, shortly after the first time he talked to her, when he asked her "do you want me to carry you across that mud," referring to the mucky ground in front of the house one day when she arrived, all dressed up, wearing a bright red blouse and red shoes. Reminiscent of the movie Life is Beautiful, she refused his offer, but agreed to go on a date.
Noemi was a housekeeper in Toronto. They married in 1956 and they've been in love ever since. She turned 78 on Sunday.
Soon after their wedding, they were expecting their first child and they'd go on to have three boys: Larry, Dennis and Marco and a daughter Michelle (Mangotich). All of them live within 10 kilometres of him today.
Durante began working at P.L. Robertson, where his brother worked.
Eventually, he built his first home — it's still standing, a yellow-brick home on Highway 25, north of No. 5 Sideroad. He dug his own well, climbing down the hole, digging out buckets, one at a time that his wife, who was seven months pregnant, would empty.
On weekends, the couple packed the crib into the back of their 1949 Chevrolet, which Durante bought from the auto wreckers on Steeles Avenue for $25, and drove to a farm in Hornby on Ninth Line. They'd set up the crib under a big tree in the shade and Noemi would feed the baby when he woke up. Together, they'd work for $1 an hour, picking tomatoes or cabbage. After the day, with $16 in their pocket, they'd do their grocery shopping.
By now, he was working part-time at a gas station each weekend while his boss vacationed up north.
"I thought to myself, 'if he can do that, I can do that'."
The rest, as they say, is history.
Durante opened his service station in 1963, at Regional Road 25 and Hwy. 401. Durante's Auto Service and Towing saw him rescue many abandoned drivers on the side of the road at all hours of the night.
They opened at 5 a.m. and closed at 10 p.m., with a snack bar that served coffee and sandwiches for the truckers, who worked at Dufferin Aggregates. The towing business stayed open 24 hours a day, and Durante was always on call.
Even when he arrived home after hours, he had work to do - feeding the chickens they raised that provided food.
As he branched out in business, he also followed his dreams of putting Milton on the map.
During this time, he started to buy land in the area.
It's mind-boggling to consider the number of properties he's bought and sold in town since.
He even has a street named after him in HighPoint Business Park called 'Durante Way'.
In 1992, he built the Royal Canadian Mounted Police headquarters in Milton that employed more than 300 people.
His companies Scrap Metal Depot, U Need Storage, Ads at Work Inc., Durfam Development Group and AC Canada Enviro Safe have employed hundreds and hundreds of Miltonians over the last 50 years.
As soon as his sons were old enough to work, they joined the family business and have been working there since. Durante says he couldn't have done it without them.
The last time the Leafs won the Stanley Cup in 1967, Durante bought the property where his family home remains today: nestled in the base of escarpment on Tremaine Road. For a mere $13,500, he sold his first home so he could begin building his current house, brick by brick.
Photos of his large family adorn the walls of the modest two-storey home – his four grown children and nine grandchildren at various get-togethers over the years.
"My life was work and family," he said, adding he used to get together with close friends, like Mayor Gord Krantz for regular card games.
Krantz used to deliver oil to his home. "Your Honour was the BP oil man," he recalled.
As Durante points out, however, business wasn't always peaches and cream.
"To make money, I lost money too," he said. "It's not all roses, there's some thorns too.
"Whatever I have, I worked for what I got."
He points to the property where Sobeys and Gordon Food Services is located and notes the ups and downs it cost him.
Another 26 acres of land on Dublin Line South of No. 5 Side Road he bought and sold twice - once almost losing everything when the real estate market bottomed out in the late 1980s.
Durante's proud of the fact that every cent he ever borrowed he paid back — quickly. He even paid back the $19 his father loaned him to come to Canada. And he paid back his boss after 1958, when he had to fly home to Italy to see his dad, who died following leukemia, at 55 years old.
"I was there to see him, I got two weeks leave, but I had to be back in two weeks, or my job was gone," said Durante, who now enjoys golfing four days a week, playing bocce and cards at the Italian Club.
His daughter said her dad was generous beyond words. While he admits to helping a few people out financially without so much as a loan in writing, she said it was dozens of Miltonians he helped over the years.
"Anytime people fell on hard times with life," she said. "He'd do whatever he could do to help.
"He always enjoyed people and family."
Durante said a local business owner once came to him and told him he was going to lose his business if he didn't help him out. Years later, Durante said the man thanked him every time he saw him.
But that's the way it used to work, he said. "Where there's a will there's a way."
Mangotich said she admires her father.
"Not because he is successful, but because of his honesty, courage and his desire to succeed," she said. "He taught his kids to be humble despite of money and success.
"He taught us that you always need to save for a rainy day, you need to give to those who need more than you and that your word is the most important thing a person has."
Only recently has he been out of commission, "put in jail" as he puts it.
He crashed to the ground at a work site, falling about 10 feet and landing directly on his heels. Unable to support the keen mind on his shoulders, his heels were crushed by the impact, leaving him bed-ridden for six weeks.
He'll find out tomorrow if he can start standing again…and he's itching to get back to work.
As for his business success, he says the Durante family has a reputation for being "respectable to do business with…we pay the bills.
"I never thought I'd be this successful," he admits. "But I never gave up the dream, and that's what you have to do."
And the money he's earned has also benefited Milton through the various charities Durante's family businesses have supported over the years: Milton District Hospital Foundation, Milton Leisure Centre, Salvation Army, Cancer Society, United Way of Milton, Milton Chamber of Commerce, the Mayor's Golf tournament, sports teams and more.

CARROLL ŌĆö The year-end wrestling tournament kicked off this weekend with all three Whitley County Schools competing in the Carroll Sectional.
Overall points determine only one team to move on to regionals; a fourth place finish or better on an individual level sends a matman to the next round.
Since 1993, the three schools have accounted for 12 of the 19 team wins at Carroll, including a run of eight straight by Columbia City.
Carroll, who claimed the title in six of the other seven years, won its own sectional with a point total of 187.50.
As a team, Churubusco got the better of the three by placing fifth overall (115.50), just in front of sixth-place Whitko (107) and Columbia City in seventh (93).
ŌĆ£ItŌĆÖs always nice to finish above the other county schools when youŌĆÖre able to,ŌĆØ said Churubusco Head Coach Sam Riesen.
Individually, only Whitko placed a first-place champion in Cody Bays, while Eagle Russell Hazelet, ŌĆśBuscoŌĆÖs Chase Downing and Wildcat Colton LeTourneau each brought their respective teams second-place finishes.
Bays came into his 145-pound, second round match with a 16-3 record. He beat his Fort Wayne Northrop opponent by major decision, 18-7.
Columbia CityŌĆÖs Alan Trabert was the next to Bays, but lost a minute into their contest. Trabert finished in third.

Love it. 1st stove purchase in 18 years. This was my first stove purchase in 18 years and I couldn't be happier. It packs up in this neat little triangular plastic case that fits in those little gaps of wasted space in your pack. No assembly, remove from the case, screw it on the tank, open the three support stands, unfold the gas control valve & fire it up. Boils 2 cups of water in about a minute or so on high (Estimated time). You should be certain to have your pot centered on the support… Full review
Snow Peak GigaPower Manual
Purchased this from REI, great little stove. I own three alcohol stoves (Vargo Triad, and two I made) and this packs down fairly small compared to the others. Fuel is a bit bulky, but they last for 3 days (3 meals a day.) Highly recommended to use on a backpacking trip if you want food or heat FAST. Alcohol is a little slower and unreliable in certain conditions. Recommended to purchase the Snow Peak windscreen and titanium cookware as it all fits snugly in the 700 mL pot.

Trangia Hard Anodized Stove Kit
I am a fan of Tragia cook sets. I own this set in the 27 and also own the Mini-T 28. Both are great and have different uses. This one, the 27 series size, is especially nice. Makes a nice camp kitchen set or base-camp trail kitchen set. Very easy to use. Can buy fuel anywhere. I pretty much agree with all the 5 star reviews for this and the other Trangia cooksets. Setup is a breeze! No parts to break and it does what it was designed to do...deliver fully cooked foods in a self contained set for… Full review

I do love this little stove! Best used for day trips and weekend trekking adventures. Perfect for solo or 2-person meals. I have used my Mini-T 28 often. I do day trips, weekend trips, and even take it on road trips. When used for its intended use it works flawlessly. By that I mean, measure when, where, and how you are going to be cooking. Don't expect it to be the be-all-end-all of camping stoves. It's perfect for the solo camper, weekend trekker, day tripper. Food portions are great for one… Full review
Esbit Solid Fuel Stove & Cookset CS585HA
Simple little lightweight camping stove. Does not put out a lot of heat though. I have used a bunch of different backpacking stoves and while I was drawn to this one for its simplicity it is not my favorite. I like the design and how everything packs down inside the pot for storage. It makes for a nice small footprint in my backpack. I like that the Esbit fuel is stable and you can store a bunch of the tablets inside the pot as well. Better than a fuel bottle. But I found that when trying… Full review

We use this stove for canoe picnic breakfasts (paddle to an island and make breakfast), for canoe camping trips, and for short winter hikes when we may want to stop and make a hot drink. It has shown itself to be reliable in the temperature range we have used it in, and certainly works well at its basic purpose for us...boil and heat up water! First used this stove on a late winter breakfast hike...temperature was about 30 degrees, and the stove worked just fine. Obviously, if there is a strong… Full review
Quietstove Burner Cap for XGK-EX
I can't make the Quietstove work on my Svea 123's (1 new and 2 used). Whether the flame bell is deformed or not, the flame always lights back to the nipple. The Quietstove burner head worked briefly with a blue flame on a new Svea. Before it began backlighting I managed to brew espresso in a narrow-bottomed pot much faster than the with the noisy spreader plate. Apparently, at high flame the noisy head spews more heat out sideways than can be absorbed by a small pot surface. Try something big, like… Full review

In my last Marathoning column, I shared my Columbia diet.
At dinner the night before an 18 mile run, a friend and fellow runner asked me, "what do you eat just before you run and what do you eat right after?" Ironically, we were at What Happens When chowing down on some decidedly non-runner friendly foods. (Sour cream tart, anyone?) I do my best, however, to eat for sustainable energy before and after running. Finding a mix of carbohydrates and protein that provide consistent fuel and maximal recovery is mission critical—the "before" goal is to make it through the run without fading, the "after" goal is to minimize soreness.

Wanting What You Can't (Quite) Have
We saw in the New Year in peaceful surroundings. A spontaneous last minute booking had us piling into our car and heading for a couple of nights in 'The Bush'. Not being a fair dinkum Aussie I'm still not entirely confident in using the term 'Bush' (unless I'm referring to a shrub or a politician) but there were lots of trees, scorched earth and a warning from the home owner that snakes are not uncommon. Max befriended the homeowner's child who was at one with his surroundings and happy to race lizards and chase kangaroos; Max on the other hand revealed us as city slickers by referencing iPad and Babycino in the same sentence.
The couple who lived there had sold their poky 2 bed apartment in central Melbourne and swapped it for 20 acres of prime Australian Bush complete with two beautiful mud brick houses, a yabby laden dam and a very rustic tennis court. They were the cats who got the cream or in this case the hippies who got the land. We had gone up to switch off, get away from it all and get a last dose of each other before Anna is snatched back by 'the office'. But I didn't switch off, I found myself wanting what they had. As well as going up to relax we were also scoping a nearby town as a possible place to take the plunge and buy.
I'm writing this from the kitchen of our own rented, poky, two bed flat in central Melbourne, I'm just close enough to the bin to smell it. We have a small balcony that isn't quite wide enough to actually sit down on without grazing your knees. People peer in and deliberate why the man never leaves his desk and what sort of content he might be viewing on his computer. We have an overzealous real estate agent who insists on visiting every three months to make sure we haven't dared to hang a picture.
There is a little surf town somewhere in Australia with our name on it. I will spend most of my time bobbing about in the sea doing an impression of a surfer whilst trying not to look like an injured seal, Max will conquer his fear of the waves and become a champion Nipper (if there is such a thing), Anna will transform the humble little shack we've purchased into a groovy retro beach house and we will all live happily ever after…….or something like that. I have this incredible clarity that we would all benefit from this move, it feels very close and my lack of patience is palpable. It's hard when you want something you can't have.
In the mean time I'll continue to despise every squared metre of this poky little flat and there isn't many to despise. I will spend my spare time indulging in a particularly painful form of self harm which involves a certain real estate website and an unrealistic budget. Fortunately the mass group therapy sessions that has become writing a blog post seems to do the trick and if you can just put up with a few more I'd be ever so grateful. Apparently if you want something bad enough it will happen, we want this bad and by the end of the year we will be in the place we want to be.

People magazine has an interview with John and Elizabeth Edwards, who say they aren't going to endorse anyone and will be "saving their political capital for their own causes." Hmm. Or making certain they remain players in a Democratic administration. John does a better job of concealing his preferences: loves the enthusiasm generated by Obama, but wants more substance; is impressed with Hillary Clinton's grit, but doesn't like all that old politics. Elizabeth is having none of that. She rolls her eyes about the impact of nominating the first African-American ("What about the great symbolic thing about a woman . . . ") and calls Obama's health care plan and ads "misleading."
So who carries more weight with Democratic voters? Elizabeth became the darling of the netroots for defending her husband against Ann Coulter and ferociously attacking George Bush, and Clinton could do worse than having Elizabeth touting her health care plan. But the real news will be if John and his 26 pledged delegates get off the fence. For now, the interview is a sign of how divided and indecisive the Democratic electorate as a whole appears to be (at least before the election returns tonight).

College Program Joins Partners to Help Residents Apply for Food Benefits
Release Date: 5/31/2013

Executive Assistant to the President
Carroll Community College
Carroll Community College Adult Education Program Joins with Partners to Help Residents Apply for Supplemental Food Benefits
Westminster, Md., --Five local agencies will combine efforts on June 15 to help Carroll County residents apply for supplemental food benefits and other supports for them and their families. The event will be held 8:30-11:30 a.m. at Human Services Programs' Family Center, which is located at 10 Distillery Drive in Westminster.
Human Services Programs (HSP), the Carroll County Department of Social Services (CCDSS), Carroll Food Sunday (CFS) and Shepherd's Staff will join forces with the college Adult Education Program to host a session during which clients can apply for food benefits through the DSS SNAP program, register for the Shepherd's Staff Back-to- School Program, and learn about free GED, ESOL and family classes.
"The idea was born during an information session CCDSS hosted for local service providers about the SNAP program," said Becki Maurio, director of Adult Education Programs at Carroll Community College. "Busy families find challenges making time to visit different providers. In order to address this, the providers are looking for creative ways to offer information about benefits and services to the community. When agencies work together to send information out to the immigrant community, it's a win-win situation. Service providers can leverage resources and clients are better able to navigate and access services." The college will provide interpreters for the event and will promote upcoming GED and English classes offered at HSP. Kate Fisher, PIA Case Manager at CCDSS said, "The outreach committee is always looking for ways to reach the diverse groups in our community. It is our goal to provide services to eligible Carroll County residents, regardless of any language barriers. We hope that this event will help to clarify some of the myths surrounding the SNAP program and about our Spanish-speaking population." CCDSS will have case managers and interpreters on hand to help people complete the online application during the event.
Ed Leister, Board President for Carroll Food Sunday says, "We are pleased to have the opportunity to work with everyone involved in the event to help our clients apply for supplemental food assistance benefits and programs."
In addition, Shepherd's Staff will be on-site to register children for their annual Back-to-School Program. The program provides school supplies and shoe vouchers for local children each fall.
This event is free and open to the public. More information can be obtained by calling the college's Adult Education Program at 410-386-2550.
Note to the Media: For best response to your inquiry, please contact Sylvia Blair by calling 410-386-8411 or e-mailing email@example.com.

Louder Audio
I just bought a set of studio monitor speakers (each one is plugged in, so they're powered). I have them connected to my Macbook Pro using a mini into the headphone jack.
The sound quality is EXCELLENT but I was hoping to get more volume. I have the speakers cranked as well as my laptop. Am I missing something? I would have thought they would be louder. Any suggestions would help. Thanks.
Studio monitors are generally unamplified from what I understand. You'll need to pick up an amplifier for them, in all likelihood.

Ronnie Vannucci...
Ronnie Vannucci was born in Las Vegas, Nevada on February 15, 1976.
As a kid, Vannucci claims to have banged every object in his parents' house, even the vacuum cleaner. At age 6, he became the youngest musician to perform in a Las Vegas band; he played drums for "Play That Funky Music White Boy" at a lounge in Caesars Palace.
In fourth grade, Ronnie won his school's talent show for drumming. In junior high, Vannucci listened to punk rock and Britpop and wore white combat boots. He learned to play guitar from his father after quitting the junior high school jazz ensemble over "creative differences". Ronnie attended both Clark and Western High Schools and formed his first band, Purple Dirt.
During this time he'd listen to The Cure and Depeche Mode. He attended University of Nevada, Las Vegas. He also attended York University.
Vannucci started teaching private lessons while drumming in a variety of bands that played everything and everywhere, from a desert show to weddings.
Previous bands Vannucci was the drummer for include Atta Boy Skip (ska-punk), Romance Fantasy, and Free Food (cover-band). Atta Boy Skip had a big underground following amongst Las Vegas high school students in the 1990s. Free Food was an all-cover oldies/classic rock band that played at local Las Vegas prisons and homeless shelters.
In the late '90s he joined the melodic indierock group Expert On October with The Killers' current touring backup guitarist/keyboardist/vocalist Ted Sablay. His final band before joining the Killers was Romance Fantasy with Rodney E. Pardey a.k.a. Michael Valentine. Brandon Flowers penned the Killers song "The Ballad of Michael Valentine" after Vannucci convinced Flowers that it would make a good song subject.
He joined The Killers in 2002 by Brandon Flowers and Dave Keuning, who co-founded the band. Later, it was Ronnie's idea to sneak The Killers into the Alta Ham Fine Arts Building on the University of Nevada, Las Vegas campus for practice. After an all-night practice, Ronnie headed off to his day job as a photographer at the Little Chapel of the Flowers.
He co-wrote the song "Believe Me Natalie" with Brandon Flowers on the album Hot Fuss.

Week two flew by! During the week we had our elite camp and this weekend we had the team camp. Most of us worked both camps and they went really well. This weekend, us players had to run the game clocks for all the games. So, there wasn't a lot of excitement this weekend, until Paige and I came home.
On Friday, our apartment got repainted and Paige and I had to take everything off the countertops. I put a cardboard box of Gushers in the oven. Can you see where this is going yet? Paige and I being the excellent chefs that we are, decided to bake fish that night. We forgot about the box. We noticed smoke coming out of the stove top and from the bottom of the oven. We opened the oven door and realized the box of Gushers was on fire! At first, we were kind of panicking but somehow we got it together and performed under pressure. Paige grabbed the fire extinguisher and shoved it on to me and told me to "use it!!" I had never used a fire extinguisher before and couldn't figure out how to use it. With the smoke getting heavier, I told to grab the scissors, I cut the plastic safety loop, pulled the pin, and shot the extinguisher. By this point, our entire apartment was filled with smoke and our apartment was covered in the dust from the extinguisher. So after a long day at the gym working camp, we got to come home and put out a fire, and then clean the kitchen and give the oven a really good scrubbing. At times, our apartment still smells like smoke. There's never a dull moment around here.
Now I want to introduce you to two of our new girls. Junior college transfer, Liz Smith, and freshmen Morgan Eye. I was able to catch up with them Monday after we scrimmaged.
Liz said her transition from her junior college to Mizzou hasn't been too bad. The hardest part is the classes. At her JC, her classes weren't too difficult for her and she only had two hours of class three times a week. Now, she has class everyday. She is taking Sociology of Family Life and Health Professions. Liz wants to go into physical therapy. Liz said her biggest challenge since being here is getting used to playing at the next level, against stronger girls and with a higher intensity. Liz is excited for this year and the change of scenery that it brings. When she took her visit, she said she loved the campus, even though the size of the campus means a lot of walking to get to class. Liz really likes how Coach P is able to bring everyone on the team together. There is such a mixture of personalities, yet there is no clashing. Finally, I asked Liz about her roommate Morgan Eye. Liz said Morgan loves That 70's Show, a TV show, and has a pretty strong country accent.
Next was Morgan Eye. Morgan is from an extremely small town, Montrose, Mo. She said her adjustment from a small town to Mizzou hasn't been too bad. It's a lot bigger here but it's not too crazy yet. Then again, it's only the summer. There will be about 30,000 more people on campus in a few months. Morgan's biggest challenge has been playing with a new team. The girls she had previously played with were the same girls she had been playing with her entire career. She is figuring out how to play at a faster tempo with a greater amount of toughness. Morgan said she is having fun living in the dorms and meeting new people. She said they did their laundry for the first time and it took longer than it should have. Also, Bree (Fowler) had to wash her clothes twice because she used too much detergent the first time. I remember those days. I think my mom had to walk me through my first laundry experience. Morgan said she has learned that Liz is half Filipino and always making funny comments.
I think it is safe to say that all of the new girls are really enjoying their time here at Mizzou.
Peace, Love and Basketball.

FORT BELVOIR, Va., May 15, 2007 Two local woodworking groups followed a Civil War custom today by presenting a ceremonial cane to a soldier who lost his leg in Iraq.
The groups seek to extend the ritual to all combat veterans who have suffered traumatic leg, foot or hip injuries in Iraq and Afghanistan.
The Northern Virginia Carvers and Capital Area Woodturners, Inc., presented an "eagle cane" to retired Army Lt. Col. Dennis Walburn, now deputy chief of operations for the Army's Rapid Equipping Force.
The REF, based here, partners with industry, academia and military leaders to get developmental as well as off-the-shelf technologies to deployed troops as quickly as possible.
Walburn was a Florida National Guard soldier deployed to Iraq to evaluate soldiers' equipment needs for the REF when he lost his leg to an improvised explosive device. He had volunteered for the 179-day deployment and was on a patrol with the 25th Infantry Division's 1st Stryker Brigade Combat Team when the incident occurred near Mosul on May 28, 2005.
Nine people, including a U.S. soldier, died in the attack. Walburn lost his leg but credited quick action by combat lifesavers and the Mosul-based combat support hospital with saving his life.
Today, the Northern Virginia Carvers honored Walburn's sacrifice and his continued service with the REF by presenting him a cane inscribed with his name and topped with an intricately carved bald eagle.
Jack Nitz, a member of the Eastern Oklahoma Woodcarver's Association and former Navy chief petty officer, initiated the Eagle Cane Project to honor wounded heroes at Walter Reed Army Medical Center, in Washington.
The project has spread to woodcarving and woodturning clubs in 13 states. Woodturning is the process of shaping wood into forms on a lathe.
Henri "Hank" Cloutier, an Air Force retiree who coordinates the Eagle Cane Project here, noted that cane-presentation ceremonies date back to the Civil War as a sign of respect and honor for wounded troops.
The eagle carved into the cane is symbolic, as well, Cloutier explained. Native Americans believed that warriors wounded on the battlefield returned as eagles.
"This cane is not to be seen as any sign of weakness," Cloutier told Walburn. "It is a sign of respect and honor and thanks for your personal sacrifice."
Walburn said during today's ceremony that he was proud to accept his cane, not for himself, but for all wounded warriors.
He offered a word of encouragement for those undergoing the long, difficult rehabilitation process. "Life is going to hold a lot of promise still," he said. "And you will be back on your feet, doing great things for our country. There is a path ahead, and it is going to be good."
Army Sgt. John Keith, another Operation Iraqi Freedom amputee serving with the Rapid Equipping Force who attended today's ceremony, called it an emotional crescendo to the long healing process he and Walburn underwent together.
Keith lost his leg to an IED in southern Baghdad on Nov. 9, 2004, selected his own eagle cane today. The woodcutters will inscribe it with his name and date and place of injury, then present it at a future ceremony.
"He is a true symbol of a warrior," Keith said of Walburn. "We all had bad days (during rehabilitation), but he always had a smile on his face and was never down. He was an inspiration to us all."
Walburn said efforts like the Eagle Cane Project go a long way in demonstrating the American people's support for men and women in uniform. "It's a great morale boost that helps them go forward with their lives," he said.
The Eagle Cane Project is an example of the myriad projects individual Americans, schools, church groups, companies and other organizations are taking on to show support for the troops. The Defense Department's America Supports You program showcases these activities while helping people involved in them network with each other and attract other volunteers seeking ways to show their support.
Despite any public debate about the conflict itself, Walburn said, the country remains unified behind its troops. He cautioned against "compassion fatigue" from giving so much for so long. "We all have to continue," he said.
Cloutier said his and other woodworking groups participating in the Eagle Cane Project hope to expand their effort to honor all combat-wounded troops who served in Iraq and Afghanistan.
The problem, he said, is that privacy laws make it difficult to contact those troops. He encouraged wounded troops or their families to contact him at email@example.com or call 703-430-1222 to arrange to receive a cane.

Product description
Mick Cooper and John McLeod pioneer a major new framework for counselling theory, practice and research - the 'pluralistic' approach. This model breaks away from the orientation-specific way in which counselling has traditionally been taught, reflecting and responding to shifts in counselling and psychotherapy training. As accessible and engaging as ever, Cooper and McLeod argue that there is no one right way of doing therapy and that different clients need different things at different times. By identifying and demonstrating the application of a range of therapeutic methods, the book outlines a flexible framework for practice within which appropriate methods can be selected depending on the client's individual needs and the therapist's knowledge and experience. This is a must-read for anybody training or practising in the counselling or helping professions - it should not be missed!

Review quote
"The writing style is plain and clear. The structure of each chapter is evident, rather like a textbook with handy bullet points at the beginning indicating the chapter's content, a summary at the end, and questions and exercises to test the reader's critical understanding. There is recommended reading so that you can follow up on particular points, and no particularly difficult or obscure language to grapple with. I found the text totally accessible. The authors call for service-providers to think carefully about the risks involved in only offering a limited range of therapeutic modalities / brands such as CBT, psychodynamic, person-centred, existentialism, and so forth, that is, to consider the risks of not providing the therapy that would be optimal for the client and the society around him" -Paula Smith, Journal of The Society for Existential Analysis "Mick Cooper and John McLeod have produced a truly groundbreaking book in the field of counselling and psychotherapy which immediately ranks as one of the most significant in terms of influencing my own thinking and practice. The pluralistic approach is likely to resonate with many who have struggled to make sense of multiple approaches and practices which all seem potentially helpful, and the positioning of the collaborative relationship with the client at the centre of the approach fits very well with current thinking in mental health more widely. The book brings together a wealth of relevant theory and research, with illuminating examples. It is a valuable counter to the overly precious 'us and them' type thinking that can be so prevalent in the counselling and psychotherapy world, and gives us new and helpful ways of speaking our experiences of therapy." - Meg Barker, Open University, co-author of Understanding Counselling and Psychotherapy, 2010, SAGE "This book comes at an opportune moment for practitioner training and practice. It will be an invaluable source text for trainees and experienced practitioners seeking support in developing their understanding of, and practice in, contemporary counselling and therapy." - Dr Lynne Gabriel, Reader in Counselling and Relational Ethics and Chair, BACP "Fifteen years of research amongst therapy users has shown me that most of them know and care little what therapy modality they receive. They want a therapy that works, that helps them meet their own goals, and that treats them respectfully and responsively as customers of a service. This book describes an approach which is groundbreaking in meeting these criteria. It is packed with interesting ideas and research, beautifully written and gripping to read." - Nicky Forsythe, Mental Health Services Researcher

Multiple fire agencies anticipate to be out all night battling a fire on the west side of the Sandia Mountains.
City, county and federal fire crews are in the Sandia foothills near Hugh Graham and Camino De La Sierra, just east of Tramway Boulevard, said Karen Takai with the U.S. Forest Service.
At 9:30 p.m. the fire was reported to be roughly 30 percent contained.
Fire officials say the terrain will keep crews working throughout the night.
Flames and smoke are visible, and the public is requested to not call 911 as crews are already on the scene.
"It's a small fire," Takai said.

About Jim Richard: Make Yourself at Home
This fall the New Orleans Museum of Art is pleased to present a solo exhibition of the paintings by renowned New Orleans artist Jim Richard. Entitled Jim Richard: Make Yourself At Home, this will be the artist's first solo exhibition at NOMA since 1978. The show will focus on the subject Richard is best known and admired for: interior scenes bursting with works of art and colorful décor. The twelve paintings on display will provide an exceptional opportunity to view a large range of the artist's work covering the last twenty years of his career. Make Yourself At Home will also debut a number of paintings that have never been shown to the public before.
About Jim Richard
Born in 1943 in Port Arthur, Texas, Richard is best known for his paintings of modernist works of art situated in richly decorated and ominously claustrophobic home interiors. Since 1977 Richard has been producing domestic scenes adorned with modern paintings and sculptures. Mining magazines, books, and advertisements for examples of wallpaper, furniture, upholstery, and artwork, Richard fuses these elements into invented residential spaces. In his paintings and collages, works of art compete against loud examples of décor. His work straddles the line between celebrating and critiquing kitsch and rampant consumer culture.
Richard has a long history of exhibiting at NOMA, having been included in ten exhibitions over the past decades, including five iterations of the juried New Orleans Triennial (more than any other artist in its history). As a professor of painting at the University of New Orleans for the past thirty-seven years, Richard played a pivotal role in maintaining the strength of the Fine Arts program at UNO, which for several decades has been a fount of artistic activity in New Orleans. Through UNO Richard influenced a generation of students, including painters Wayne Gonzales and Peter Halley, and sculptor Lucky DeBellevue.
About Andrew Duhon
New Orleans Songwriter, Andrew Duhon has released two albums including, new EP, "Dreaming When You Leave", and debut album, "Songs I Wrote Before I Knew You". "Songs" was produced by Grammy award winning producer/engineer, Trina Shoemaker (Sheryl Crow, Emmylou Harris, Queens of the Stone Age, Whiskeytown) and "Dreaming" by Grammy winning producer, John Snyder (Dave Brubeck, Etta James, Junior Wells, Ornette Coleman, Dizzy Gillespie, Clarence Gatemouth Brown). Andrew has toured throughout the United States and UK, and continues to tour, write, and record.
About A Legend in the Classroom: The Life Story of Ms. Yvonne Busch
(Run Time: One Hour – See the trailer here.)
Born in New Orleans in 1929 and raised in the historic Treme section of the city, Ms. Busch, who mastered several brass instruments and wood chimes, became a touring professional by the age of 12, crisscrossing the United States as a member of the critically acclaimed "International Sweethearts of Rhythm" and the "Swinging Rays of Rhythm", two all female bands sponsored by the Piney Woods Country Life School, an African-American boarding school located in Piney Woods, Mississippi.
All programming is included with Museum admission.
Schedule subject to change.
