Re: Having A Comfortable Rehearsal Space - Important ??
Meant to post the pics of the lounge area, can't see the large screen TV for watching the game/relaxing/videos etc...Nothing better than being able to relax before, during and after rehearsal. It took many years and working my ass off to get this stuff but it is my sanity assylum and I do treasure it and am very thankful everyday I wake up, definitely count my blessings. I never thought I would ever have anything like this from where I grew up, it was in the cards I guess...

Health Care PR Trends in 2012
By Nina Dunn on December 20, 2011 - 3:49pm
As we're approaching the end of the year, many health care companies are creating new or revising existing PR strategies for 2012. So I thought it would be appropriate to look back at the health care developments of the passing 2011 and discuss some of the emerging trends in health care PR.
The health care industry has always been considered conservative in its uptake of new communications tactics. With the rise of health and wellness awareness and an increasing role of health IT, the industry will have to adapt and employ more progressive and interactive PR to engage HCPs, patients and brands. This presentation will offer you with some insights in what we can expect in 2012.
I hope you enjoy these ideas. Please share with us your own predictions on emerging trends in health care PR in the comments box below.

Bayou City History
A blog about Houston's past
Monthly Archive for October, 2011
A boy and his hailstones
Not much to say about this Houston Post photo, taken after a 1942 hailstorm in Fairbanks. There wasn't much to Fairbanks back then. Looking at a Google Earth image from 1944, there are a few scattered dwellings in the area of where Fairbanks-North Houston reaches the Hempstead Highway. Today, nearly 60 years after the city […] [Read More]
Old Cage Elementary
Earlier this month, East End residents came out in full force to ask the HISD board to sell old Rufus Cage Elementary to the city. Anyone familiar with the history of that area probably shouldn't be surprised at the level of interest in that building. Since the early 1950s, the Houston Chronicle has documented the […] [Read More]
Downtown Houston at night
Here we have some photos of downtown Houston at night. You don't see too many old scenes of the city as it looked in the dark, so I thought we should give these pictures a second life. I'd say these were taken in the 1950s. *** Filmmaker Carlos Calbillo is screening The Case of Joe […] [Read More]
Hidalgo Park quiosco gets state honor
Although state historic markers in this area tend to honor people, buildings or notable events, every now and then something a little different gets singled out for recognition. On Saturday, the Hidalgo Park quiosco was designated a state historic landmark. The gazebo has long been a familiar gathering spot for Magnolia Park residents since it […] [Read More]
The great indoor contest between Hofheinz and Welch of 1969
"They might have called it the Border Olympics — bordering, as it did, on the absurd." That's how Texas Magazine described an April 1969 foot race between Houston Mayor Louie Welch and Roy Hofheinz. Throw in KILT's Hudson and Harrigan, and famed surgeon Denton Cooley and, well, you do have one of the more bizarre […] [Read More]
A scene along Produce Row
Today, we have a 1954 photo showing the northwest corner of Commerce at Travis. Actually this is a late photo showing Produce Row along Commerce Street. As Betty Chapman pointed out in a Houston History Magazine article last year, Allen's Landing at the foot of Main Street gave rise to a warehouse district along Commerce […] [Read More]
A little on China Garden, plus upcoming events to keep history buffs busy
China Garden menu It's been awhile, but diving into the 1971 "Dining in Houston" guide we have this entry from the folks at China Garden. The restaurant hadn't been around for too long when this was published. Actually, thumbing through the guide just now, China Garden is one of the few restaurants profiled in it […] [Read More]
New photos from the New London school disaster
I know it's not Houston, but I thought I'd pass these photos along anyway. Among the set of historical negatives from the Houston Post files are images from the New London school explosion of 1937. Fourteen of the negatives have deteriorated to the point where they are unsuitable for display. The 15 photos you see […] [Read More]

One must learn how to maintain a work life balance. If one does not have this kind of equilibrium, stress, discomfort, and all other negative feelings and attitudes will fill up T mind and his family's, raising the level of stress and disagreements.
The older we get, the more we tend to focus on our work in order to ensure the financial stability of our family. While this is, of course, noble, this has its very serious side effects which can definitely affect the well being of your family, including your children.
Bloom where you are planted
This simply means that you should find the right job for you. For instance, if you enjoy teaching, then be a teacher. If you like to write, then choose journalism, or just be an online freelance writer. What is important is that you choose a career that you enjoy doing.
Basically, choosing the right job can determine the amount of stress levels. If you enjoy doing what you are doing every day, then you will go home happy every day.
Relax on weekends
As much as possible, and if it is not necessary, weekends should be enjoyed with family and friends. This is not trying to be luxurious and care-free, this is recharging after a week of hard work. Weekends, therefore, should be enjoyed with your family and friends. You can stay at home to enjoy your time with your spouse and kids while you savor the peace and quiet of your house. Or, you can go outside to the beach for some fresh air. What is important is that you de-stress yourself at the end of a very stressful week.
Stay away from stress-causing people
Yes, there is this kind of people. These are the ones who like to gossip, who like to spread rumors, and who like to criticize everyone else. When you chat with these people, you acquire some of their negative energies without even knowing it.
Set personal limits and boundaries
Steph Auteri, career coach and editor, says that one must not overwork himself. We must set every day work limits so that we go home with enough energy to enjoy quality time with our loved ones. For instance, when it is time to go home, go home; do not stay and finish a heavy work. There is still tomorrow, and that unfinished job will still be there.
Maintaining a work life balance is, as a matter of fact, the key to personal happiness and satisfaction. Your work is your means of securing financial stability, and your family is the reason for this. However, you must realize that focusing on work alone will also lead to the sprouting of barriers in your very own family which will lead to your misery. Therefore, balance your life well.

Walk to Bethlehem
There are 148 parishioners signed up for the 2012 Walk to Bethlehem. Good luck on your "journey" and please turn in your "passport" weekly.
The 2012 Walk to Bethlehem begins on September 30th and ends on December 22nd. Sign up after all Masses the weekends of Sept. 22-23 and Sept. 29-30.
Walk to
Record your miles on the weekly log. Remember that 20
minutes of an aerobic activity or praying equals 1 mile. Place the
appropriate log section in the backpack on the Health Ministry bulletin board
after Mass every weekend. Turn the form over if you need more room to write.
STUDENTS: Do include the miles you walk in the school morning walking program as well as any sports activities.
If you did not sign up during the registration period, you may still join in the walk. Pick up a passport on the bulletin board or call the parish nurse for more information.
Walk to Bethlehem
Did you know that the word "walking" is mentioned 247 times in the Bible? Regular walking "can prevent depression, lengthen lifespan, lower stress levels, relieve arthritis and back pain, strengthen muscles, bones and joints, and improve sleep" (aarp.org/health/fitness/walking). Along with inactivity, the turmoil of our busy lives can unbalance us unless we center ourselves in prayer.
To improve our physical and spiritual health, as well as our global and cultural awareness, Good Shepherd's Health Ministry Team is promoting an imaginary walk from Evansville to Bethlehem.
Families and individuals are encouraged to sign up and receive their "passport" for this 12-week program. You will keep a weekly account of how many miles you walk (or 20 minutes of aerobic activity equals 1 mile). For those unable to participate due to a disability or physical limitation, you may accumulate miles by your physical/occupational therapy sessions, armchair exercises, or praying for those who are walking.
You will need to drop your weekly account log in the backpack by the Health Ministry bulletin board after Mass each weekend. These will be tallied to monitor our progress and the results will be posted on the bulletin board. Also, check the board each week to find our current location on the map, read about the geography and culture of the area, and pick up the weekly devotion page.
During your walk or activity, you are encouraged to focus on the weekly scripture devotion page, your prayer concerns, or the needs of the people and communities where you are "walking". Additional ideas include:
~invite a friend or neighbor to join you
~plan exercise activities as a family
~walk one lap around the mall before shopping
~ in lieu of Christmas gifts, ask family members to pledge money to a charity or mission if you meet your goals.
Students can also include their participation in the school walking program, and any sports activities such as cross country, etc. To keep everyone motivated, there will be random drawings for prizes!
The distance between Evansville and Bethlehem is approximately 6,385 miles as the crow flies. Let's see if the parishioners of Good Shepherd Parish can go the distance.
UPDATE: The 2008 Walk to Bethlehem was a success! We had 106 parishioners plus 154 students from the school walking program participate. They walked a grand total of 7,390 miles and the distance from Evansville to Bethlehem is 6,923 miles with the route we took. Congratulations to everyone who participated.

This is a delightful short book which could be used as a supplemental course book in an upper level undergraduate course or first year graduate course in graph theory. The book could also be used to provide a short (say 2 week) supplemental module in a standard undergraduate linear algebra course. Although the book has no homework problems, its contents are beautiful, current, relevant, accessible to undergraduates, and have the potential to entice the audience to want to learn more.
The book contains 10 chapters, each of which shows how certain properties of graphs are associated with matrices and how certain algebraic properties of matrices shed light on graphical properties. The table of contents gives a good sense of what is included.
Although the author believes his book primarily relevant for research mathematicians and graduate students, I disagree. It would also be relevant in a standard undergraduate course. By analogy with calculus, the modern textbook approach is to present multiple applications when teaching standard courses. Multiple applications should be presented in Linear Algebra also! In linear algebra, Anton's and Rorres' Applications of Linear Algebra comes to mind, a book with about two dozen chapters, each showing some unexpected applications of solving linear systems — for example, three dimensional viewing or touching up photographs. Many of the applications in this classic work of Anton are now found in the "Applications Version" of Anton's linear algebra book. Brualdi's book goes a step further than Anton, since the linear algebra applications are not applications of solving linear systems but new interpretations of the matrix concept — the matrix is no longer the coefficients of a linear system "without the variables," it has a life of its own.
My reasons for advocating using this book as a second text in a senior or first year graduate graph theory course is twofold. First, the book illustrates how mathematically defined objects — in this case matrices — acquire a life of their own and find applicability in unforeseen ways: the matrix is defined as an abstraction to deal with linear systems and yet it mysteriously can completely describe a graph. Second, the book also illustrates a modern concept we would like all undergraduates to learn: that mathematics frequently progresses by two disparate disciplines — in this case matrix theory and graph theory — joining together.

|Inna singles chronology
10 Minutes is a synthpop song by Romanian recording artist Inna and features songwriters and producers Play & Win, longtime collaborators of Inna. In Romania it was released as her fifth single in order to promote the Romanian release of Inna's debut album Hot, which also included earlier chart successes such as "Hot", "Amazing" and "Déjà Vu".
"10 Minutes" premiered on Inna's official YouTube page in December 2009 and was sent to Romanian mainstream radios on 25 January 2010. It peaked at number eighteen on the Romanian Top 100. For its international release, a music video was shot during June 2010 in London. "10 Minutes" was released as the fourth single from Hot in France and the fifth in the Netherlands.
The song was leaked on Inna's YouTube page on 23 December 2009, under the title of "Karaoke with Inna". It was sent to the mainstream radios such as Kiss FM on 25 January 2010.[1][2] "10 Minutes" was written by the songwriting group Play & Win, who wrote Inna's previous singles. This song is more heavily influenced by American music than the previous songs released by Inna, the house beats are not emphasised so much here[3][4]

To promote the release of Inna's debut album Hot in her home country Romania, the song "10 Minutes" was sent to radio stations in January 2010. Following the airplay premiere of the song, "10 Minutes" debuted on the Romanian Top 100. But without any music video promotion it only peaked at number eighteen on 28 February 2010, being the first of Inna's singles not to enter the top ten.[5] When the music video was released it was sent to two main Romanian music channels: 1Music and MTV Romania. It entered heavy rotation on MTV and re-entered the Romanian Top 100, but did not manage to reach the top forty, because of the lack of promotion. It has also entered the top ten of the MTV Hitlist.
On the Year-End Charts, "10 Minutes" finished at the 42nd position of the Romanian Top 100, with a number of 6,266 airings.[6] The song became Inna's best hit of the year in Romania, being followed by "Sun Is Up" on the 52nd position.
On the Czech Republic Airplay Chart it reached its peak position at number ten in April 2010 and once again in June 2010. On the Dutch 100 Singles Chart, "10 Minutes" debuted at number seventy-nine on 2 October 2010, and peaked at number seventy-six on the following week. It was also a moderate success in Belgium, Bulgaria, Hungary, Poland, Russia and Ukraine. "10 Minutes" became Inna's least successful song all through Europe.
On the French Physical Singles Chart, "10 Minutes" became Inna's fourth top ten single in a row. On 6 December 2010 it debuted at number eight as the highest new entry of the week, while simultaneously "Déjà Vu" sat at number twenty-one, "Amazing" at number forty-two and "Hot" at number seventy-seven. The next week, the song fell to number eleven. After Christmas, "10 Minutes" returned to the top ten, climbing up from number twelve to number ten on 9 January 2011. On 23 January 2011, it reached its peak position at number eight again, while its successor "Sun Is Up" simultaneously became a top five hit on the French Digital Charts.
On 4 February 2011, "10 Minutes" became one of hundred songs to chart on the new official French Top Singles & Titres Chart, which combines digital and physical sales. While "Sun Is Up" debuted at number five, "10 Minutes" opened at number forty-eight. In the French Physical Top 50 the song maintained within the top twenty for many weeks.
Due to the lack of airplay on both radio stations and music channels, 10 Minutes failed to make an impact on British charts. Although the song was highly anticipated by Inna's fans, the song was released onto iTunes without any promotion online.
Failing to chart in the United Kingdom and Ireland, nor Austria, Germany, Spain and Switzerland (countries where Inna's songs had the greatest impact within the music charts) and due to the introduction of the new French chart, "10 Minutes" became Inna's least successful single to date both in Romania and internationally, until the release of "Club Rocker" in 2011.
Music video[edit]
The music video for "10 Minutes" premiered on 29 June 2010 on Inna's official site. The video was filmed in London and was directed by Paul Boyd, famous for collaborating with Mariah Carey and Shania Twain. However, the music video did not become a hit in Romania.[citation needed] The Pussycat Dolls-inspired music video shows Inna dancing in a club and flirting with a waiter, while other people are star-struck by her. It is also a club-oriented video, and shows Inna preparing for a show in the suburbs of London.
The United Kingdom version of the video premiered in early January 2011, on All Around the World Productions' official YouTube page. The video was shortened by cutting out some repetitive scenes and focusing on Inna's image. The UK edit lasts for 2 minutes and 33 seconds. As Media Forest Romania stated on their Facebook profile, the music video was already aired in France, Israel and Switzerland, as of January 2011.
Live performances[edit]
Inna performed "10 Minutes" for the first time at the Romanian Music Awards 2010, held in Craiova, on 10 July. There, she sang the song in a medley with her older number-one hit "Amazing", the promo single "Señorita" and her then-newest single "Sun Is Up". Afterwards, she performed it in various European clubs. On 28 December 2010, Inna performed "10 Minutes" live in an unplugged concert in Kasho Club, Brașov. Her concert was recorded and broadcast by Romanian TV channel 1 Music.[7] In France, she performed it on several dates on Fun Radio throughout late 2010 and early 2011, and also performed the song in several concerts, such as at Loft Club, in Lyon. The song was also performed during the second set on Inna's INNA en Concert world tour and it was also added to the US dates of her I Am the Club Rocker Tour.

See the latest tweets on our Twitter feed, like our Facebook pages, watch our YouTube videos, and page through our Flickr photos.
When you die, the Office of Federal Employees' Group Life Insurance (OFEGLI) will pay life insurance benefits in a particular order, set by law:
If you assigned ownership of your life insurance, OFEGLI will pay benefits in the following order of precedence:
You can download the Standard Form (SF) 2823 [119 KB], Designation of Beneficiary, and instructions, or contact us and ask that they be sent to you.
You need to keep your designated beneficiaries' addresses current. Failure to do so may mean that your beneficiary cannot be located and therefore benefits will not be paid to that person. The preferred way is to file a new Designation of Beneficiary when a beneficiary's address changes. A new address cannot be added directly to the Designation of Beneficiary form itself, since any cross outs, erasures, or alterations in your form may make it invalid.
You may make one of the following elections regarding a benefit to be paid to your spouse in the event of your death:
These elections may provide the following benefits:
Things to consider when making the election include:
There is an opportunity to increase survivor benefits within 18 months after the annuity begins. However, this election may be more expensive than one made at retirement.
Under the Civil Service Retirement System (CSRS), your annuity is reduction by 2.5 percent of the first $3,600 of the amount you choose as a basis for the survivor annuity, plus 10 percent of any amount over $3,600.
Under the Federal Employees Retirement System (FERS), your annuity is reduced by 10 percent for a full survivor annuity or 5 percent for a partial survivor annuity.
Yes, the provisions of the law, along with the retirement and the Federal Employees Health Benefits Program regulation are in A Handbook for Attorneys on Court-Ordered Retirement, Health Benefits, and Life Insurance Under the Civil Service Retirement System, Federal Employees Retirement System (FERS), Federal Employees Health Benefits Program, and Federal Employees' Group Life Insurance (FEGLI), RI 38-116. [446 KB]
You can also order it from the U.S. Government Printing Office, Superintendent of Documents, P.O.Box 371954, Pittsburgh, PA 15250-7954. The order processing code is 7612 and the document number is S/N 006-000-01408-9. You can order by telephone at (202) 512-1800.
The regulations covering both the Civil Service Retirement System (CSRS) and the Federal Employees Retirement System (FERS) benefits are in part 838 of title 5, Code of Federal Regulations. The regulations contain extensive model language that the Office of Personnel Management (OPM) encourages attorneys to use in preparing court orders.
The appropriate application for Death Benefits under the CSRS or FERS must be filed with an original signature to the Office of Personnel Management. Your survivor should attach a certified copy of the death certificate, a copy of your marriage certificate, birth certificates of eligible children along with a certified copy of any divorce decree, and property settlement agreement that occurred on or after May 7, 1985. Applications may be obtained online at opm.gov/retire or by contacting the Retirement Information Office at 1-888-767-6738.
If your marriage ends after retirement, you can elect a reduced annuity to provide a survivor benefits for your former spouse. To make an election, you must notify us in writing within two years of the date the marriage ended. You should include a court-certified copy of the decree effecting the dissolution of the marriage, and any property or marital settlement agreement. See where to send the court order.
If you were married to the former spouse when you retired and he or she consented to an election of less than the maximum survivor benefit, you cannot provide a benefit that is larger than your original election. The calculation of the reduction in your annuity to provide the benefit for an ex-spouse is the same as the reduction for a benefit for a spouse.
When you contact us, we will send you a statement describing the cost of the election and ask you to confirm your election.
If you are electing to provide a survivor annuity for an ex-spouse and you remarried, your current spouse must consent to the election.
While all military service may potentially be used in the computation of civil service survivor annuity benefits, military service performed after December 31, 1956, is subject to social security (FICA) taxes and is primarily creditable for social security benefits. However, military service performed after December 31, 1956, can be used for the computation of both the social security and civil service annuity benefit if you pay a deposit before retirement.
Using military service to compute the civil service survivor annuity may also be affected by the waiver of military retired pay for civil service retirement purposes. If you are a retiree and have not waived your military retired pay, military service generally cannot be used in the computation of your benefit or that of your survivor's.
If an employee has not waived military retired pay for civil service retirement purposes, and dies while still in Federal service on or after April 25, 1987, military service must be used to compute the Civil Service Retirement System (CSRS) survivor annuity if the military deposit has been paid. However, survivors may elect to exclude such service based on certain factors. Refer to our section on death benefits for additional information.

Deep Fried Baby Chicken? I was joking with the Devil Wears Prada the other day about pigs and piglets (for suckling pig), but how come no one cooked using the young of chickens.
And now… apparently they do!
i went for crab at tak fok restaurant last weekend….damn, they dun have crab that day and now see ur crab pics…makes me drool…
wah, really nice scenery….can makan and see nice scenery, really envy u…
Hi dear, so happy to have bumped into you at the airport! Must catch up again soon!
Did you say the satay is similar to Teluk Kumbar?? I'm sold!! Ah looking at the picture of the sea suddenly made me miss Penang…
Remember I ran into you last year? It was our first time dining there but I thought the food was so so. We had the prawn and they were rubbery, over-steamed, and the other dishes were just OK. My elder sister also thought so. Maybe next time must go with you because we didn't try the other dishes you had.
remember not to go there cause they have a dog eye captain call sam spoil all your eating mood. If whoever know the boss there do let me know as I want to told the boss his restraurant can close down due to this dog person. This dog captain is very unprofessional and very unpolite look down to you when u wear cheap and drive cheap car there. DO remember to drive your big car so that this dog captain can serve you better like a king.
The food is not pricey if you know how to order the dishes. the price is standard unless for the Price of fish.(depends on market price).
If you really want to eat fish, order the "Ang Sai" is around RM35-RM40/fish, is almost same price with outsider restaurant.
James:- THe boss is call Ms Lim, proably you can reach her at night around 9.00pm at above phone #. Of course have some captain is dog person, but have 1 lady captain call "Chan Che ??" is very nice and good introducing the food.
have a nice dinner…….
I enjoy Ocean Green food too, but I have to say I didnt like the sweet n sour crab much, but i loved the kam heong clams. I wantd to order the spinach soup dish, but they were all sold out, then i ordered a mango thai chicken, that was absolutely yum! Since you love to eat you gotta try that, im not in Penang anymore, cant enjoy malaysian food at the moment, so gotta check out your website when im craving, haha it actually made my craving worse!! But thank you for sharing, love ur site.
Well, my last visit at this place is during 1982 when working as waiter (when waiting for SPM result), the Boss – Ms Lim is very nice person and i really enjoy the work there with another 2 friends.
Must visit them again when back to Penang during month of July. Wising Ms. Lim and "Chan Che" all the best …..
The curry steam fish is not tasty for me and my family. There is a really strong "santan" taste which is too overpowering for us. We prefer the fish in clay pot a lot more. Also, the deep fried spring chicken is always rather bland…need a bit more seasoning. However, we love the steamed prawns and spinach in superior soup. Also, their lobster is nice and huge!! But pricey~~
Hi I would like to know that the menu written in english or in Mandarin?
Btw.. I love this blog. I'm going to Penang for 3d2n only, but i think I need to prepare my stomach after listing all your recommended food and restaurant. =D

August 23rd, 2010 at 3:55 pm
I am sure the menu is available for the convenience of the customers, not too worrying as the workers do speak English and Mandarin. Hope you have a wonderful time in Penang
As for me, I rarely look at the menu, usually they will recommend the dishes.
Actually the food was good BUT, the worst thing is I found worm in the sizzling oyster!! Omg.. The owner explain that the worm might be from the garnish it self.. N I realize that almost all the dish that we ordered are came with garnish! Very dissapointed. Lucky the owner didn't ask us to pay as we just eat a lil bit only.
Dec 17, 2011. I HAD FAMILY DINNER AT OG. THE FOOD IS THE WORST I'VE EVEN TASTED. STEAM PRAWN WITHOUT ANY TASTE. SCALLOP & BROCOLLI IS TASTELESS. 4 SEASON AT RM80 IS RIDICULOUS. OYSTER WITH EGG ON HOT PLATE; THE WORST I HAVE TASTED EVER. DON'T EVEN WANT TO GO THERE ANYMORE. BY THE WAY, THE CHARGES ARE 5 TIMES MORE THAN OUTSIDE.

It seems we live in a time where everything is nearly instantaneous. Renting a movie does not require a trip to the video store. It simply takes a couple of key strokes on your computer. Messages can be sent to friends and family in just a few seconds via email.
There are some things, however, that do take time in order to be successful said Janice Hermann, Oklahoma State University Cooperative Extension nutrition specialist.
"Despite numerous fad diets that promise quick results, a healthy diet combined with physical activity is still the foundation to long-term weight loss success," Hermann said. "Keeping weight off permanently requires not only a change in eating habits, but an overall lifestyle change. Losing weight and keeping it off takes time, focus and a lifelong commitment."
A person must lose weight for the right reason. A person should not try to lose weight because of external pressures. It must come from within and it must be done to please yourself, not others.
Losing weight takes a lot of mental and physical energy to change old habits, so if there are other issues in your life, it is best to address and try to resolve them.
"Although you are responsible for your own behavior, it's important to seek support as you make this weight loss journey," she said. "Surround yourself with people you know who want only the best for you and who will encourage you along the way."
Hermann said it also is important for a person to set realistic weight loss goals. Healthy weight loss occurs slowly and steadily. Aim to lose one-half pound to 2 pounds per week.
"In order to lose up to 1 pound per week you must burn 3,500 calories more than your body needs, or about 500 calories per day," she said. "Individuals who lose weight at a more rapid pace are losing water weight and muscle tissue, in addition to fat."
Adopting a new eating style that promotes weight loss includes lowering your total caloric intake. Some people may think they have to give up good taste or make complicated meals to meet their new calorie needs. However, adding more fruits, vegetables and whole grains to your diet can provide you with satisfaction and flavor at the same time.
Very low calorie diets are not healthy for the long term. Diets containing fewer than 1,200 calories for women and 1,400 calories for men are not recommended because you run the risk of not getting all of the nutrients needed for good health.
"Keep in mind that while dieting alone can help you lose weight, adding 30 to 60 minutes of physical activity per day can help with your weight loss," Hermann said. "The goal of physical activity for weight loss is to burn more calories. How many calories you burn depends on the frequency, duration and intensity of your activities. Steady aerobic exercise is one of the best ways to lose body fat. Be sure to check with your physician before starting a physical activity program."
If your physician approves increasing your physical activity it's best to start slowly and spread your physical activity throughout the day. For example, start with four or five, five- to 10-minute brisk walks and slowly increase your time at each session.
When some people envision physical activity they see various exercise machines, gym memberships or jogging. However, physical activity is anything that increases your energy expenditure throughout the day. Taking the stairs instead of the elevator or parking farther away from the office building or store are just a couple of ways to easily incorporate additional physical activity.
"Remember that eating healthy food and participating in physical activity for a few weeks or even months won't get you to your goal and maintain it. These new behaviors must be incorporated into your everyday life," she said. "You're likely to have setbacks, but don't give up. Start fresh the next day. A new you won't happen overnight, but the results will be worth it."

Aunt Trish's Salad Dressing
I had a beautiful Aunt named Trish. She was married to my mother's brother.
Trish and her sisters were all nuns. Then they left the convent, got married, and had children.
Aunt Trish was the mother of my two cousins, Jonathan and Julie.
She died suddenly when Jonathan and Julie were very little. It was very sad. I was six or seven.
Trish left a legacy of kindness and goodness behind—as well as her exact likeness in her daugher Julie. She also left behind this salad dressing, which has always been a favorite in my family.
You'll love it.
Here's what you need: olive oil (Aunt Trish used salad oil; canola oil would work fine), lemon juice, garlic, Parmesan, salt, pepper, sugar, and paprika. Simple!
Then squeeze in the juice of one to two lemons—whatever your taste is.
I like to use one of these little strainers. It catches the seeds.
Sprinkle in a dash of kosher salt, sugar, and plenty of freshly ground black pepper.
Next comes the paprika. Just a dash. You can also add a tiny pinch of cayenne if you like a little kick.
Grate up a little fresh Parmesan.
And add 2 to 4 healthy tablespoons. You can also use a more powdery form of grated Parmesan, of course. Whatever you have on hand!
Finally, add one or two cloves of peeled garlic.
After all the ingredients are added…
Screw on the lid tightly, then shake it up like crazy to emulsify the mixture. Then keep it in the fridge for at least 24 hours so the flavors can meld together.
A simple salad: green leaf lettuce, halved cherry tomatoes, and sliced red onions. (Oh, and a very crusty loaf of French bread nearby.)
Then toss it up and serve it with…everything.
This is a wonderful, simple salad dressing you can make in large quantities and keep in the fridge for quite some time. Just shake it up each time you use it and it'll stay yummy. It's great for pasta salads, too–or even a marinade for chicken or beef.
And it makes me think of Aunt Trish. And that's a very good thing.
Here's the handy dandy printable:

So, is the person who ends up with the garlic clove on their salad the winner? Or the loser?

One other thing I just had to comment about. You obviously have fond memories about Aunt Trish everytime you make this recipe. People who won't share their recipes are either forgotten or only remembered because they wouldn't share. Hm-m-m.

My dad has made salad dressing like this for years (minus the sugar) and I have always, absolutely, positively loved it. Thank you for sharing your Aunt's special version.

This looks delicious…I'm going to have to try this soon! I always make salad dressings with a vinegar of some kind, I will have to try lemon juice for a change!
Tiara On Thursday, May 6 at 1:24 pm

Deb On Thursday, May 6 at 1:25 pm
Looks yummy! I do one simliar to this with a touch of grey poupon. I think I'll try the cayenne next time and leave out the mustard.

Karen On Thursday, May 6 at 1:38 pm
Could this be made without the cheese, for a dairy free version?

That looks delicious! We'll be using that for our healthy potluck at church.
Julie Smith On Thursday, May 6 at 1:46 pm
Thank you for this recipe. I've been looking for a good one that doesn't use vinegar. Looks fab.
Jasmine On Thursday, May 6 at 1:51 pm
OK, I've been given dressing like this as a gift a few times. My question, though, is this: How long is "quite some time"? I usually end up throwing them away after a few weeks just to not chance it. But does anyone know? Maybe I'm throwing it away when I could still use it.
Carolyn On Thursday, May 6 at 1:54 pm
Alyson On Thursday, May 6 at 1:55 pm

Kiran On Thursday, May 6 at 2:29 pm
Minus the parmesan cheese (yeah, I am that weird!), this dressing looks so deliciously healthy
Robyn STroh On Thursday, May 6 at 2:29 pm
Yummy, I have just started making homemade dressings and I will add this one to my list. Thanks for always bringing a smile or laugh to my day!
Emily On Thursday, May 6 at 2:32 pm
comment #7– i was wondering the exact same thing…..
HEIDI On Thursday, May 6 at 2:33 pm
Oh wow! I must make this! I dearly love these types of salad dressings. I truly love a fresh, crisp salad and the perfect salad dressing just makes my life whole.
Kimberley McGill On Thursday, May 6 at 2:37 pm
I have been lurking around for a while – well, lurking sounds dark and dangerous. Spying? That sounds pretty sketchy too. Ok, I have been secretly reading and trying out cooking/photo tips and throughly enjoying the stories and photos – a lot!
Maryann On Thursday, May 6 at 2:40 pm
Haven't bought salad dressing in years. This is very similar to what I make. Nothing is better than homemade salad dressing. And it's sooooo easy. Thanks for sharing. Maybe a few less (million) bottles of that abominable stuff will get sold this week!!
Java Girl On Thursday, May 6 at 2:47 pm
Hey!! I made this exact dressing last night but added Agave Nectar…. it was fabulosso!
Leiann Saniger On Thursday, May 6 at 2:49 pm
That sounds so good and easy. I might have to make it for some pasta salad. Yummy!!
Rachel Nuzzo On Thursday, May 6 at 2:52 pm
So interesting! I make a very similar dressing… called "Rae's Dressing" (after moi)… in the exact same manner (in the mason jar, with seed strainer, etc.), but I used honey instead of sugar, microplane the garlic and don't use the paprika. It is very tangy and terrific and best on crisp salad. Great to see another version.
zoom On Thursday, May 6 at 2:52 pm
The dressing sounds great.
I really want to hear the story of Trish leaving the convent and then marrying. That has to be interesting. My husband's aunt married a former priest. It is a great story.
Laura On Thursday, May 6 at 3:02 pm
YUM that looks really good! I must give it a try!
Karona On Thursday, May 6 at 3:31 pm
Dang, that looks tasty. Great for a summer salad. I can't believe I missed yesterday. I love red too. That little baby would have looked grrrreat in my kitch.
Conni On Thursday, May 6 at 3:33 pm
That looks delicious. I'll have to give that a try!
Lula On Thursday, May 6 at 3:34 pm
@#7 my guess would be that the cheese is supposed to go into the salad with the dressing but the whole clove of garlic is not. however, if it were me, i'd probably microplane the garlic into it as someone else suggested. because i love my garlic.
Lisaiz On Thursday, May 6 at 3:34 pm
Yum! I have been making my own dressings more & more, and this looks like it needs to be added to the reportoire! Thanks!
And how wonderful that your aunt's legacy lives on and has now touched thousands of lives!
Katie @ Cozydelicious On Thursday, May 6 at 3:36 pm
Lovely dressing! I'm all about anything involving cheese on my salad! Isn't it wonderful when we can remember loved ones by eating? Recipes are my favorite heirlooms. So much better than pictures!
bridget {bake at 350} On Thursday, May 6 at 3:44 pm
I have an aunt who makes her own dressing, too! I think she told me once that she didn't even know you could BUY dressing until she was an adult.
Trish Taft On Thursday, May 6 at 3:54 pm
I am looking for a creamy parmesan recipe that a few restaurants in the area have and I have not found it yet. This recipe looks good but not the creamy kind.
teripsu On Thursday, May 6 at 4:10 pm
this dressing looks amazing! I don't know if it will be available yet, as I just posted it, but you have to check out the dressing I just posted to Tasty Kitchen. Ree – I know you're not a Miracle Whip fan, but get a tiny jar and try it with this recipe, please??? PRETTY PLEASE?
carrie On Thursday, May 6 at 4:14 pm
I love these kind of recipes! Thanks!

YUM! I love making dressing!
Trudy On Thursday, May 6 at 4:36 pm
Oh, thanks to Aunt Trish—that looks so light and good. Maybe tonight, if I can get out to the store"! I've made salad dressings, but I'm always looking for more. I used to make my own Thousand Island (AND MacDonald's secret sauce!)all the time with just real Mayo, ketchup, pickle relish and a little onion powder. I knew it was fresh, I could control the amounts and it didn't have I don't know how many additives—and so much cheaper.. I think I'll make some of that again, too!
Happy Anniversary! You have really turned blogging into a lifestyle! Congratulations on your super success. I don't know how you do it all.
Doanh On Thursday, May 6 at 4:40 pm
Made this dressing for lunch today and it was pure simple and good. I will definitely make this again. I used it on raw broccoli because it's all I have for veggies =) but it made my broccoli taste yummy! Thanks Ree!
emilyjean On Thursday, May 6 at 4:48 pm
Yum! This looks simple and delicious. I'll definitely be trying this some time soon.
Erika S. On Thursday, May 6 at 5:01 pm
This dressing is my style…can't wait to make this.
Susanne On Thursday, May 6 at 5:03 pm
Yummy. I'd be tempted to chop the garlic before adding it so that you get small bits when you bite in.
Theresa in Alberta On Thursday, May 6 at 5:07 pm

Bob On Thursday, May 6 at 5:44 pm
That's odd, I had an aunt die when I was around that age too. She didn't make salad dressing, but she did make her own mayonnaise and I always remember that about her. Since I'm so food oriented. Heh.
The salad dressing sounds great, I'll definitely have to try it.

In the words of Rachael Ray… "Yum-o!"

I love that you can use it on pasta. Yum!
kathy morelock On Thursday, May 6 at 6:30 pm
How sad. Why did she die? I like plain salad dressing, homemade. Even just oil and vinegar. I bought the cookbook (after waiting 10 minutes while they scoured the Borders store in Simi Valley CA) they found one in the backroom…On page 40 it says it will tell how to get by if you don't have buttermilK? Did it? or how do you improvise. I must be crazy, but did not see the directions.
The cook book is to die for. I am going to cook my way through the entire book. Kathy
Courtney On Thursday, May 6 at 6:44 pm

It's like you were a little fly on the wall and were listening to our conversation My son who is 15 and i were talking about a nice new simple homemade salad dressing and presto – when i checked your site tonight – there it was!
Thanks! We will give it a try! It looks delicious.
Angela On Thursday, May 6 at 7:03 pm
The first time through I read that she and her sisters were all NUTS. I was confused what being crazy had to do with convents.
koohiiteasheri On Thursday, May 6 at 7:07 pm
I have a recipe in my family that we like to call Auntie Lucille's Dressing, a sort of french dressing – only as it has made it's way down it's been called Aunt Priscilla's then Aunt Liz's and so on! I still call it Auntie Lucille's. Aunt Trish's looks quite refreshing!
barb On Thursday, May 6 at 7:36 pm
My favorite baked good is…home-made bread……My mother taught me how to make burger style "buns" (and bread) at a young age….. Every road trip we took ….she made sandwiches with them…the filling didn't matter…If we were "rich" it was sliced ham…if we were "poor"…peanut butter and butter..They were soooo good any way we could get them…I did the same when our kids were little and we took "road trips". The memories are tasty…:)

Do readers often develop little crushes on you? Is that weird? Also, when I click on your site and the cookbook comes up, even though I glimpsed you from afar at BlogHer last year, I can't help thinking you look like Mariska Hargitay's slightly blonder, younger sister.
Emily L. On Thursday, May 6 at 7:42 pm
That sounds delicious!
Bobbie Lutz On Thursday, May 6 at 7:43 pm
This sounds so good-can't wait to try it! BUT I have a quick question for you. I noticed that you were using a Weck jar top–where did you find those? I have a set that I love, love, love and really want more but can't find them.
Thank you for sharing all your fun recipes–your PW cookbook has rapidly become my favorite! My man loves your meatloaf! I could make that every night and he would be one happy man!

That salad dressing looks fantastic! I love simple, short lists of ingredients. And it doesn't get any healthier than extra virgin olive oil.
Rita On Thursday, May 6 at 8:11 pm
Sounds really good, can't wait to try it! I have it printed to put in my recipe book
Jonna Randleman On Thursday, May 6 at 8:12 pm

Jannie Funster On Thursday, May 6 at 8:18 pm
Sweet Aunt Trish. Bet she's up cooking in heaven — and everyone loves her.
Those shots of the parmesan and the salt falling are like perfect little poems. So pretty.
Kristin On Thursday, May 6 at 8:28 pm
Some of my favorite recipes & memories are from my aunt Trish, who died when her children were too young also. I wish she & my kids could've known each other because she was the best.

Patti On Thursday, May 6 at 8:52 pm
My Great Uncle Louis' 4th or 5th "wife" was a woman from Syria and except for the paprika this was exactly like her salad dressing. We have always called it Syrian salad in her honor.

That looks great! I hate creamy dressings so thanks for the recipe!
Abbey On Thursday, May 6 at 9:55 pm
This is a delicious salad dressing, a version of which I have made many times myself! The only thing I caution is not keeping it over a week or so, because garlic in olive oil can cause botulism poisoning. But up until that week, this is absolutely delicious!!

I swear to God you are a mind reader!!
I think about things and then YOU post it, it's getting kinda creepy! I made a dressing like this last week, but used a smoked paprika…OMG that stuff is SO good. I also used some tomato paste and lemon zest…Too Weird…:) It's happened about 5 times now…
ajane On Thursday, May 6 at 10:07 pm
Just read the comment about garlic in olive oil for longer than a week can cause botulism?? Seriously?
Cassie Jebber On Thursday, May 6 at 10:18 pm
What a beautiful post. Aunt Trish left a legacy with her dressing and her children. I hope that my recipes may too one day live on in my family. LOVE IT!

Do 2-in-1 shampoo-plus-conditioners really work?
If you're Mr. Multitasker and believe even your grooming products should do two jobs at once, then yes, a shampoo/conditioner may be worth trying. When you suds up your scalp with a 2-in-1, cleansing agents called surfactants bind to the dirt and excess oil in your hair, and pull them off as you rinse. While those surfactants are streaming off, the conditioner is kicking in. "The conditioning portion is bound in molecules that act as cages," says Paradi Mirmirani, M.D., an assistant professor of dermatology at the University of California at San Francisco. "As the hair is rinsed, the conditioner releases, coating the hair." Dr. Mirmirani says these products work best on hair that's not too oily or too dry, and even then should be used only a few times a week. For dry hair, use a 2-in-1 and follow it up with a separate conditioner, which will have a higher concentration of moisturizers.

You could call it mother's intuition, but about 15 minutes into my son's fever I knew we were not dealing with a regular bug. And we weren't. Within 48 hours we would learn that our house had been hit with H1N1.
It's difficult to get across the rapidity which this flu took hold. Our family had plans for dinner on Saturday. At 3:00 my son was fine- bouncing around the yard, hunting for toads and having the kinds of epic imaginary battles only a four-year-old boy can conjure. At 4:45, as we were getting ready to leave, he told me his head hurt and within ten minutes his fever had shot up to 103 degrees. It would drop no lower than 101 for the next two days, despite repeated tepid baths and ibuprofen.
That Saturday night was one of the longest in recent memory. I slept downstairs in the guest room with my son while my husband was upstairs, resting for the "day" shift the following morning. Owen's persistent fever meant neither one of us slept that night. And poor Owen-he alternated between chills and sweats and he just couldn't understand why his whole body hurt.
Saturday night faded into Sunday morning and my husband and I, strong coffee in hand, sat down at the table and started juggling schedules. Like many other families my husband and I both work and we don't have a lot of family around who can just jump in during a pinch. Bleary from a lack of sleep, exhausted with worry, we split our hours at home and at work for the week. It was going to be a challenge, but better to be prepared now, we thought.
By Sunday evening it was clear that Owen wasn't the only one battling this bug-so was I. At this point we didn't have a diagnosis, and I wasn't seriously considering H1N1, mostly because it felt like I was fighting off whatever it was that had walloped my kid. My throat was a little itchy, as were my eyes, but it's fall now in Minnesota so itchy throat and eyes are par for the course until the first freeze. I planned on taking Monday off to take Owen to the doctor and get him on the mend- by Wednesday, I thought, I'd get caught up on the work I'd push back while my little guy was sick.
But, like all well-laid plans, those quickly exploded. Monday morning hit and so did the flu. I hurt. Even my teeth ached. I was chilled to the bone, even outside in the sunny mid-70s. Owen and I went to our doctor and they confirmed what at that point I was resigning to–we had H1N1. We lost the next week-and-a-half to recovering from the virus. Owen, true to form, was bouncing around the house by Wednesday. By Friday, even the lingering cough, one of the telltale symptoms of H1N1, was all but gone.
For me the virus was a whole different experience. It may not have hit as fast but it was not letting me go as easy. I spent most of Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday alternating between the bed and the couch in utter sick misery. My poor husband had to juggle a recovering preschooler and a suffering type A wife. Thankfully he was able to take two days off of work to tend to Owen and me. Quite honestly I don't know how I would have managed on Tuesday and Wednesday without it. The fever had me near delirious and I was sliding in and out of sleep as a result. Even Friday, when I was almost a week into the virus and well-past the contagious stage I nearly passed out trying to make lunch for Owen and myself.
Perhaps some context is in order. I do not get sick, and when I do, I "muscle" through it. I'm not saying this is a balanced approach to illness, but it is how I cope. Despite the fact that we have insurance illness is a situation that can tip my family into financial ruin. For instance, the visit to get diagnosed with H1N1 will cost my family close to $300, and again, that is with health insurance. So our strategy has been like the strategy of so many other families- don't get sick- eat well, exercise, sleep, try to manage stress and strive for simplicity. So to be knocked back for over a week is unheard of for me.
But you won't hear me complain because, all in all, my family's experience with H1N1 was mild compared to what could have been. Thankfully my son was able to battle the virus, and while at one time we were moments from an emergency room visit, in the end he was just fine. And the illness struck me at a time when my schedule was lighter- I only had to cancel class once and most of my writing commitments were covered. My husband could take time off work without losing income. Most importantly though, it is just the flu. A mean, nasty variation, but just the flu. A flu to be taken seriously, but, in the end, simply the flu.

I just went through the Swine Flu. It's truly not an ordinary flu bug. Take it seriously, folks, and get the vaccine when you can. Pneumonia is a signature symptom, often developing quickly after infection.
Jessica P- Thanks for the commentary. I have gotten my 2 youngest children a flu shot every year for the last several years. I have never had the flu or a vaccine for it. I have decided that I will get them their regular flu shot this year, but I will not get them the H1N1 vaccine. The decision was difficult and I will confess much stress over my decision. There is such a movement to scare us all into succombing to this vaccine. I believe that in our county, they are no longer testing for it unless the individual is hospitalized. I find that to be peculiar.
I'm anxious to know how your doctor knew it was H1N1 so quickly. It has to be sent to the CDC in Atlanta, GA and it takes 5 days for it to be confirmed. Also, In Ky, my nephew was diagnosed with the flu last week and when his dad asked about testing for H1N1, he was told they weren't testing for H1N1, no medical facility in the state was. My sister then called her local health dept. because she didn't believe that, I mean we are hearing of cases of it popping up all over the state, but the health dept. confirmed that they were only testing for H1N1 in extreme cases. How do they know how many people have it if noone is testing for it ? Call your local health depts. and see what they say, I'm curious to know.
That is simply not true, H1 N1 has nothing to do with GE or GMO products. There will always be flu pandemics because ALL FLU viruses are avian in origin, that is where the human flu virus came from originally.
The real issue is CAFOs and their role in selecting for the more virulent form of the virus. CAFOs are nothing but virus factories, all those animals crammed into close quarters, unhealthy and given large amount of antibiotics which leads to the development of resistant forms of bacteria.
But bacteria are not viruses, and do not confuse the two.
An excellent book on this subject is "Bird Flu: A Virus of Our Own Hatching" by Dr Michael Greger.
H1N1 originated when we started feeding animals genetically modified products-therefore we should look seriously at how food is produced.
Most flu's this year have been a variant of H1N1 - far less people have died - but some well people have, which is the concern... I think I nearly died, dreadful infection, sticky mucus keepingme awake, rattling in my throat... I used old fashioned remedy, eucalyptus oil in hot water, on a tissue to smell, tea tree oil, to heal, and lavender oil too helped the pain in my lungs - just sniffing it hard... panadol for pain, penicillin for infection, - it all helped, but still lasted ages... My asthma medicin did not work at all! It was a bit scarey folks... Peace, Deb
I had a similar reaction to a stomach flu a couple of years ago, only it was a lot shorter lived. I took a homeopathic remedy and was better nearly right away.
Consider the FluVac:
1. Mercury: is a known neurotoxin and could be especially harmful to the developing brains of young children. A study conducted in 2005 by Burbacher et al and published in the journal Environmental Health Perspectives found that ethylmercury (the form found in thimerosal in vaccines) had a higher affinity for the brain than other forms i.e. much of the mercury from thimerosal-containing vaccines ends up in children's brains. Mercury also disrupts biochemistry and can result in dysfunction of multiple enzyme systems and damage to cell membranes and many proteins involved in all bodily functions.
2. Flu vaccines also contain a number of chemical toxins, including ethylene glycol (antifreeze), formaldehyde, phenol (carbolic acid) and even antibiotics like Neomycin and streptomycin. In addition to the viruses and other additives, many vaccines also contain immune adjuvants like aluminum and squalene.
The purpose of an immune adjuvant added to a vaccine is to enhance (turbo charge) your immune response to the vaccination. Adjuvants cause your immune system to overreact to the introduction of the organism you're being vaccinated against and of these, squalene is the worst offender because it is a naturally occuring substance within the human body and just like Gulf War syndrome, the body begins an attack wherever it finds the squalene within your body. Whether or not you survive such an attack is probably in the 'lap of the gods'. Fancy your chances?!
Sounds like all the flu my kids and I had at various times, except the panicking and running to the ER. Lots of fear being generated here folks, and lots of cash in the vaccine folks' pockets. We are alot healthier nation overall than in 1918; take care of yourself, and don't fall for their tricks.
It should be about informed consent. Know what it is you're swallowing or having injected in your body. Watch the documentary "Vaccine Nation" on www.medicalvoices.org . No vaccines fo me, I'll up my Vit.D level and wash my hands frequently.

Powell, Weber Named to All-ACC Academic Team
June 25, 2013
GREENSBORO, N.C. - Junior Sean Weber and sophomore Austin Powell have been selected to the 2013 All-ACC Academic Team, announced Tuesday by the conference office. Weber claims the honor for the first time, while Powell receives his second in as many years.
Hailing from Winston-Salem, N.C., Weber is a biological sciences major, while Powell, from Muscle Shoals, Ala., is majoring in business administration.
A 2013 All-ACC honoree, Powell lead the team in wins during the 2012-13 season with 21. During the spring season, he split time at the No. 1 spot in the lineup along with fellow sophomore and All-ACC selection Robbie Mudge. Powell went the entire month of March without a loss, posting a perfect 7-0 record during that span. He was rewarded for his efforts on April 2, 2013, receiving the ACC Player of the Week award.
Weber ended the season in a tie for the team lead in dual-match wins with 13 along with sophomore Beck Bond. The junior claimed the first win for the Wolfpack in the NCAA Tournament with his straight-set win over Michael Wardell of Auburn, 6-1, 6-4. His win stretched the Pack's lead to 2-1 in the match and helped NC State to a 4-1 win over Auburn.
He also teamed up with senior Dave Thomson to form State's top-ranked doubles pair. The duo won 19 matches during the season, seven of which came against nationally-ranked opponents. The tandem was also ranked throughout much of the season by the Intercollegiate Tennis Association (ITA), peaking at 10th in the polls.
Jon Choboy's squad advanced to the NCAA Tournament for the fourth time under his leadership and the sixth time in program history. The Wolfpack upset 24th-ranked Auburn in the first round, before coming up short against No. 14 Oklahoma in the second round. The Pack also finished fourth in the ACC standings, its best finish in the conference since 1980.
For consideration to the All-ACC Academic Team, a student-athlete must have achieved a grade point average (GPA) of 3.0 or better for the previous semester and maintained a minimum cumulative GPA of 3.0 during his academic career.

It's foraging time for bears, so use caution and report sightings to FWC
By Pat Andrews
posted Oct 8, 2013 - 2:01:38pm
As the human population spreads in West Volusia, encounters between humans and wildlife have become more common. Black-bear sightings — whether it's a cub in a tree, a bear using a backyard as a path, or a bear checking out the trash bins at Stetson University in DeLand — have been reported in The Beacon in recent years.
The likelihood of spotting a bear increases this time of year.
The Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission (FWC) wants to reduce close encounters between humans and bears, but when bears are sighted, the FWC wants to know about it.
The FWC asks that bear sightings be reported at its website. Biologists are particularly interested in sightings of female bears with cubs to help update maps of bear populations.
Why are sightings more common this time of year?
"In fall, the world is an all-you-can-eat buffet for Florida black bears. Programmed to pack in extra calories before winter, bears can smell food a mile away and will eat almost anything. Bears may decide an overflowing trash can is easier pickings than searching for acorns and berries," a Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission (FWC) report notes.
The FWC urges prevention of problem encounters with Florida black bears by securing garbage and by putting out garbage cans the morning of garbage pickup rather than the night before. Using bear-proof cans or dumpsters helps. Tips on bear-resistant trash cans and what to do if you encounter a black bear are available online at www.myFWC.com/bear.
While black bears are generally not aggressive, they can become defensive when approached, and they are big, FWC biologist Brian Scheick said.
Adult males weigh 250 to 400 pounds, and can be as large as 600 pounds. A mother bear can be very protective — and aggressive — in the desire to protect her cubs.
If you encounter a bear at close range, the FWC advises:
• Remain standing upright.
• Speak to the bear in a calm, assertive voice.
• Back up slowly toward a secure area, making sure you are leaving the bear a clear escape route.
• Avoid direct eye contact, because bears and other animals may view direct eye contact as aggressive behavior.
• Stop and hold your ground if your movement away seems to irritate instead of calm the bear.
• Don't make any sudden movements, or run, which can trigger a chase.
• Don't play dead or climb a tree.
If you should get a photo of mother and cubs, however, the FWC wants it.
Photos and reports will help update information on bear populations, which are concentrated on large public lands, but are sometimes found elsewhere. These other populations have not been well-reported or -documented, Scheick said.

That would be just dandy! It would save me a bit of hacking... I'm particularly interested in being able to start playback of the score with a max message like [go] or [start]. I couldn't see how to 'get at' the controls in that class from java, otherwise I could probably code it myself. It would be fun to be able to hit some of the other methods, but that may be for another day. brad http://music.columbia.edu/~brad
