It's good, but it needed a little work to make it that way. For starters, there's absolutely NO way this dough can be rolled...it's way too gooey! Dropping it by rounded tablespoons is much easier. Secondly, it takes longer than 8 to 10 minutes...it took me about 13 or 14 to finally get the center to stop being so doughy. Third, it is a little too sweet, just a little. Half a cup of chopped pecans takes the edge off, and I added 2/3 cup of toasted coconut for extra flavor. With a little tweaking, this is one great cookie!
Way, way too sweet and doughy.

First of all, Amanda, let me tell you that you are my cookie SAVIOR! These are some of the best cookies that I've ever had and I have you to thank for it! I used a sour cream white cake mix and chocolate pudding instead of the butterscotch, along with melted butter to sub for the vegetable oil, and I had a truly phenomenal cookie. Nothing I've made lately has turned out but these cookies! These are my husband's new favorite. I'm never going to try another oatmeal cookie recipe again. Thanks for sharing!
I make cookies for church every week, and this recipe has become my standby...the variations are endless.
I've gotten super raves and requests for the recipe with these combinations, all with Duncan Hines mixes, plus I always add 1tsp of baking powder:
1. golden butter cake/French vanilla pudding/Crasins
2. lemon cake/lemon pudding/lemon zest/chopped pecans/dipped the balls in sugar before baking
3. golden butter cake/cookies & cream pudding/choc chips
At 11pm, realized that I had forgotten to make the cookies I had promised for a co-worker's birthday celebration in the morning. Found this recipe, and, like others have said...it is VERY quick!
Didn't have white cake or chocolate chips, so I did the reverse -- chocolate cake with white chips. Used white chocolate pudding instead of butterscotch, and added 1/3 cup of coconut, in addition to the oatmeal. They're great if you like a VERY sweet cookie. My kids love them! They were fairly greasy. Next time, I'll try using 1/4 cup of oil.
Versatile recipe and nice to make if low on flour and butter. Perfect for what I needed; have lots of mixes and puddings, and sour cream I needed to use up. I used a BUTTER PECAN mix, butterscotch pudding, and BUTTERSCOTCH CHIPS. I also had an egg yolk and some egg wash from a bread I had made, so measured 1/4 of the egg wash and threw in along with the egg yolk. I therefore added about 1/3 cup more oatmeal. Used a combo vanilla and butter flavor extract. These scooped out so easily on the cookie sheet using a cookie scoop and even with a medium scoop, they make alot. Did not spread much so can put alot on each sheet without fear of overcrowding. The taste is great and does not taste like cakemix at all. Tastes like there is a ton of carmel, or brown sugar and butter in them. Yum. Also threw in 1/3 cup of raisins and that was a nice addition. Very nice.
Great recipe, i substituted Devil's Food Cake mix and Vanilla pudding. Also, instead of 1 cup of choc chips i did one cup mixed of choc chips, white chips and walnuts. My Husband loved them.
I truly enjoy these cookies!! This is the first time I've ever made "real cookies" before and I found the recipe quite simple. I used PISTACHIO PUDDING mix and WHITE CAKE mix. I love anything pistachio. Also substituted the vanilla extract for ALMOND EXTRACT and added a tsp. of baking powder and 1/4 vegetable oil. I took note from the other reviews. Dough was very sticky and took shape rather nicely. WILL MAKE THIS AGAIN!!

The present invention relates to absorbent articles of the kind that are worn in contact with the wearer's skin, such as diapers, incontinence protectors, sanitary napkins and like articles. The invention also relates to methods of reducing the undesired side effects that may sometimes occur when using such articles.
Absorbent articles of this kind are known in many different forms. The absorbent body of such products is conventionally produced by dry-defibring cellulose pulp, e.g. cellulose pulp in roll, bale or sheet form, and converting the dry-defibred pulp in a fluffed state to a pulp mat, sometimes with an admixture of so-called superabsorbents. Superabsorbents are polymers that are able to absorb several times their own weight of water or body fluid.
A typical problem relating to absorbent articles such as diapers, sanitary napkins, incontinence protectors or the like is that their use can lead to undesired side effects, such as skin irritation and malodours. These problems can occur as a result of occlusion, the presence of moisture, and factors of a mechanical, microbial and enzymatic nature, all of which coact with and amplify the effect of one another to different extents. For instance, several undesired side effects can occur as a result of or in conjunction with an increase in pH.
U.S. Pat. No. 3,794,034 describes the significance of pH in an absorbent article and also teaches impregnation of the article with buffering substances by means of which the pH in the article can be kept between 3.5-6.0, which is beneficial both with respect to the inhibition of the growth of undesired bacteria and therewith the occurrence of undesirable odours, and also in avoiding negative skin affects.
EP 0.311,344 describes controlling pH in absorbent articles, wherein the buffering properties are obtained with the aid of a partially neutralised superabsorbent material and an antimicrobial substance chosen from among ordinary nitrogen-based compounds or bis-guanide compounds. The undesirable side effects can be reduced, by controlling the pH of the article so that it will not exceed a given level. However, not all harmful microorganisms are influenced negatively by a low pH value. Escherichia coli, which is itself acid-producing, is an example of such a microorganism. The antimicrobial substances can also give rise to problems. For instance, these substances can give rise to allergies or skin irritation with long-time use. Moreover, general discussions are ongoing as to whether or not comprehensive use of antibiotics can result in an increasing resistance of harmful bacteria strains to antibiotics. Finally, the use of antibiotics can have negative ecological consequences with regard to the handling of waste.
Attempts to solve the aforesaid problems of undesirable odours and the growth of undesirable microorganisms have also been made by actively adding specific mricroorganisms to absorbent articles of the aforesaid kind. For example, one such technique is described in WO 97/02846. These specific microorganisms are primarily lactic acid producing bacteria, such as different species of the strains Lactobacillus and Lactococcus, which have an antagonistic effect on other microorganisms.
However, the aforedescribed known techniques have not completely eliminated the problems of undesirable odours and the growth of undesirable microorganisms. Consequently, there is a need for improvements that can further reduce the problems associated with malodours and the growth of microorganisms.
It has now surprisingly been found that the aforesaid problems associated with undesirable side effects, such as malodours and skin irritation, can be reduced still further by using an absorbent article that contains a synergistic combination of
a) a pH-regulating substance in the form of a partially neutralised superabsorbent material, and
b) lactic acid bacteria, where the pH value of said article subsequent to being wetted when worn against the skin lies in the range of 3.5-5.5, preferably within the range of 3.5-4.9, and most preferably within the range of 4.1-4.7.
The term "absorbent article" as used in this document relates to absorbent articles that are worn against the skin, such as diapers, incontinence protectors and sanitary napkins.
The term "superabsorbent" and the acronym "SAP" relates to polymers that are able to absorb several times their own weight of water or body fluid. A suitable partially neutralised superabsorbent material may be comprised of a cross-linked polyacrylate of the kind described in EP 0,392,108, although other types of superabsorbent material that have corresponding properties may alternatively be used.
The term "lactic acid bacteria" and the abbreviation "LB" relate to a group of bacteria which produce lactic acid at normal fermentation. Examples of bacteria species that include strains belonging to this group are Lactobacillus, Lactococcus, Leuconostoc and Pediococcus. Bacteria of the families Lactobacillus and Lactococcus are preferred.
The term "CTMP" relates to chemithermomechanical pulp.
The Term "CP" relates to chemical cellulose pulp.
The term cfu relates to colony-forming units.
The invention will now be described with reference to the accompanying drawings, in which
FIG. 1 shows an inventive diaper from that side which is intended to lie against the wearer in use;
FIG. 2 is a stack diagram illustrating the cultivatation of Escherichia coli in an absorbent article containing 1) CTMP+conventional superabsorbent; 2) CTMP+conventional superabsorbent+lactic acid bacteria; 3) CTMP+partially neutralised superabsorbent; and 4) CTMP+lactic acid bacteria+partially neutralised superabsorbent; and
FIG. 3 is a stack diagram illustrating the cultivation of Enterococcus faecalis in an absorbent article that contains 1) CTMP+conventional superabsorbent; 2) CTMP+conventional superabsorbent+lactic acid bacteria; 3) CTMP+partially neutralised superabsorbent; and 4) CTMP+lactic acid bacteria+partially neutralised superabsorbent.
An absorbent article with which the problem associated with undesirable side effects, such as skin irritation and undesirable odours, is further reduced by combining in said article a pH-regulating substance in the form of a partially neutralised superabsorbent material, with lactic acid bacteria.
Swedish Patent Application 9702298-2 describes an absorbent article that includes a pH-regulating substance in the form of a partially neutralised superabsorbent material which when wetted produces in the absorbent article a pH in the range of 3.5-4.9. Such a pH value has been found to have a growth-inhibiting effect on undesirable microorganisms in the article. The activity of certain skin-affecting enzymes, such as lipases and proteases, is also impaired.
According to the invention, an absorbent body may also include absorbent material other than partially neutralised superabsorbent material. Cellulose pulp is an example of one such material. It has been found beneficial to use a partially neutralised superabsorbent material according to the aforegoing in combination with cellulose that has a pH below 7, and preferably below 6. A suitable cellulose pulp is chemithermomechanical pulp (CTMP) having a pH=2.5-8.5, preferably 2.5-6.5, and most preferably 2.5-5.5. Another suitable pulp is chemical cellulose pulp that has a pH=2.5-8.5, preferably 2.5-8.0 and most preferably 2.5-7.0.
The cellulose pulp can be given a suitable acidity by controlling the pH of the pulp during the manufacturing process, for instance by adding an acidifier. This acidifier may, for instance, be SO2-water. Alternatively, an appropriate acid may be added to the finished pulp.
As before mentioned, cross-linked superabsorbent polyacrylates suitable for use in the present invention are described in EP 0,391,108. Other superabsorbent materials having the same properties as those aforesaid may also be used. A suitable proportion of superabsorbent material in the article is 5-100%, preferably 15-60% and most preferably 15-50%.
SE 9702298-2 describes the relationship between the degree of neutralisation and the pH of the aforesaid superabsorbent material. It is evident that the degree of neutralisation will preferably be between 20% and 45%, and more preferably between 20% and 35%.
The diaper 100 shown in FIG. 1 includes a liquid-permeable casing sheet 1 made, for instance, of nonwoven material or of perforated plastic film, a liquid-impermeable casing sheet 2, made for instance of plastic film or hydrophobic nonwoven, and an absorbent body 3 enclosed between said casing sheets 1, 2.
The diaper is intended to embrace the lower part of the wearer's trunk in the form of a pair of absorbent underpants. Accordingly, the diaper includes two end pails 4, 5 and a narrower crotch part 6 between said end parts, said crotch part being intended to be placed between the thighs of the wearer in the crotch region when in use. The diaper includes fastener tabs 7 close to the rear waist edge 8 of the diaper, so as to enable the diaper to be secured in the desired pants-like configuration. In use, the fastener tabs 7 are fastened to the front part 5 of the diaper, close to the front waist edge 9, so as to hold the diaper together around the wearer's waist.
The diaper shown in FIG. 1 also includes prestretched elastic devices 10, which may consist of elastic tape, wire covered elastic treads, elastic foam or some other suitable material. For the sake of simplicity, the elastic devices 10 have been shown in a stretched state in FIG. 1. As soon as the tension in the elastic devices is released, the devices will contract and therewith form elastic leg openings on the diaper.
The absorbent body 3 of the diaper embodiment shown in FIG. 1 is comprised of two layers 11, 12, to wit an upper liquid acquisition layer 11 and a lower liquid storing and liquid dispersing layer 12. The upper acquisition layer 11 shall be capable of receiving large volumes of liquid over a short period of time, i.e. shall have a high instantaneous liquid absorption capacity, whereas the lower liquid storing and dispersing layer 12 shall have a high liquid dispersion capacity and shall be able to drain liquid from the acquisition layer 11 and disperse this liquid in the storage and dispersion layer 12. The differences in the respective properties of the two layers 11 and 12 can be achieved by arranging for differences in density, wherewith a more densely compressed fibre structure will disperse liquid more effectively than a corresponding fibre structure of lower density, which as a result of its larger pore size has a higher instantaneous liquid absorption capacity and a lower liquid dispersion capacity. Differences in the absorption capacity of the two layers can also be achieved with the aid of different fibre structures that have mutually different properties. For instance, chemically produced cellulose fluff pulp has a higher liquid dispersion capacity than, e.g., pulp that is produced mechanically or chemithermomechanically, so-called CTMP. A fibre structure that contains chemically stiffened cellulose fibres still also have a higher liquid absorption capacity but lower liquid dispersion capacity than conventional chemical pulp. Natural fibre wadding or fluffy nonwoven material are examples of other materials suitable for use in the acquisition layer 11.
A pH-lowering substance in the form of a partially neutralised superabsorbent is mixed in with the upper liquid acquisition layer 11 of the absorbent body 3. This part of the absorbent body 3 also includes lactic acid bacteria.
A partially neutralised superabsorbent that functions as a pH-regulating substance has a lower total absorption capacity and a slower absorption rate than conventional superabsorbent. One advantage with placing such a superabsorbent in the upper part of the absorbent body closest to the wearer is that the risk of swollen superabsorbent lumping together is reduced in this way. A common problem is so-called gel blocking caused by clumping of swollen superabsorbent. Gel blocking implies that when the superabsorbent is wetted it forms a gel that blocks the pores in the porous structure and therewith impedes the transportation of liquid from the wetting region to other parts of the absorbent structure.
A conventional superabsorbent is mixed in the lower liquid storage and liquid dispersion layer 12 of the absorbent body 3. One advantage afforded by placing conventional superabsorbent in the lower liquid storage layer 12 is that a conventional superabsorbent has a higher total absorption capacity than a partially neutralised superabsorbent that has a pH-regulating effect.
It will be understood that the invention also includes other absorbent body constructions. The absorbent body may include both partially neutralised superabsorbent and conventional superabsorbent, both of said superabsorbents being distributed uniformly in both the upper layer and the lower layer of the absorbent body. Furthermore, it is feasible to use only one type of superabsorbent material in addition to cellulose fluff pulp. In such cases, the superabsorbent material has the form of a superabsorbent which will also function as a pH-regulating substance.
Layers other than the liquid acquisition layer 11 in the absorbent body 3 may also include lactic acid bacteria, and it is also feasible to include lactic acid bacteria on/in the liquid permeable casing sheet of said article.
The invention will now be described with reference to the following example, which is given for illustration purposes only and which has no limiting effect on the invention.
Tests were carried out while using sterile synthetic urine that included a microorganism growth medium. The synthetic urine contained monoions, divalent ions, cations and anions and the urine was prepared in accordance with information contained in Geigy, Scientific Tables, Vol. 2, 8th Ed., 1981, page 53. The microorganism growth medium was based on information concerning Hook and FSA media for enterobacteria. The mixture had a pH of 6.6.
Absorbent bodies were produced with the aid of a slightly modified sample body former according to SCAN C 33:80. Fluff pulp and superabsorbent material of a desired type were weighed-up and a uniform mixture of fluff pulp and superabsorbent material then passed in an air stream at a subpressure of about 85 mbar through a tube having a diameter of 5 cm and provided with a metal bottom net on which thin tissue had been placed. The mixture of fluff pulp and superabsorbent material was collected on the tissue on the metal net and formed the absorbent body. The absorbent body was then weighed and compressed to a bulk density of 6-12 cm3/g. The absorbent bodies contained 0.85 g CTMP and 0.15 g superabsorbent material. Two different superabsorbents were used, these being conventional superabsorbent having a pH of about 6 and partially neutralised superabsorbent having a pH of about 4.2. In the event of using lactic acid bacteria, these bacteria comprised Lactobacillus plantarum, strain LB931, which had been deposited at Deutsche Sammlung von Mikroorganismen (Braunschweig, Del.) and given the deposition number DSM 11918. LB931 was freeze-dried in skimmed milk. The bacteria concentration was adjusted to 109-1010 cfu/gram, by mixing the bacteria with powdered skimmed milk.
Absorbent bodies were prepared in accordance with the above method. Synthetic urine was prepared in accordance with the aforegoing. Escherichia coli (E.c.) and Enterococcus faecalis (E.f.) were cultivated in nutrient broth (Nutrient Broth Oxoid CM1) overnight at a temperature of 30° C. The graft cultures were diluted and the bacteria contents calculated. The cultures were mixed in different proportions, so that the final culture mix contained about 104 organisms per ml of synthetic urine. 10 ml of the synthetic urine were poured into a sterile sputum jar 70.5×52 mm, volume 100 ml, and the absorbent body placed upside down in the jar and allowed to absorb liquid for a period of 5 minutes, whereafter the jar was turned and incubated at 35° C. for 0, 4, 8 and 12 hours respectively, whereafter the bacteria count in the absorbent body was determined. TGE agar was used in the cultivating process for measuring the total number of bacteria, and Drigalski agar and Slanetz Bartley agar were used for specific measurement of Escherichia coli and Enterococcus faecalis respectively. LB931 was calculated on MRS agar (de Man Rogosa Sharpe). When LB931 was added to the absorbent body, it was added in an amount corresponding to 10 mg of the freeze-dried mixture mixed with 10 ml synthetic urine, which was then added immediately to the sample body.
The results of these tests are listed in the following table:
Bacteria growth in absorbent articles with or without partially neutralised superabsorbents and lactic acid bacteria respectively.
Partially neutralised superabsorbent is designated "acid SAP" in the above table.
It will be evident from the table that the combination of partially neutralised superabsorbent and lactic acid bacteria has a synergistic effect with regard to the reduction in the growth of Escherichia coli and Enterococcus faecalis. The division III in the above table also shows that LB931 grow equally as well in the presence of partially neutralised superabsorbent as in the presence of conventional superabsorbent.
These results are also shown in FIGS. 2 and 3.

Arizona State - New Mexico Box Score in PDF Format
Download Free Acrobat Reader
ALBUQUERQUE, N.M. --- New Mexico freshman Alexis Ball scored the game-winner midway through the opening period Tuesday night to lift UNM past Arizona State, 1-0 at the UNM Soccer Complex. Ball scored her third goal in three games and helped the Lobos improve to 5-2-2 overall. UNM remains undefeated against non-ranked opponents and collected its fourth shutout of the year. The Sun Devils dropped to 4-4 overall with the loss.
"I'm very proud of this team and they showed great character tonight against Arizona State," said UNM head coach Kit Vela. "The team is very young and continues to step up in big situations. I'm impressed with their ability to find themselves after two overtime matches Friday and Sunday on the road. We exchanged chances in the first half and held strong defensively to pull out the victory."
Ball's goal came in the 25th minute on a cross from junior Krista Peterson. Peterson found Ball on the right side and fired the shot to the far post. Ball leads the team with three goals this season. Ball led UNM with four shots.
Sophomore Kiani Wong started in goal for New Mexico and was outstanding. Wong made her fourth appearance of the season and played the full 90 minutes. The Honolulu, Hawai'i native collected a career-high nine saves and improved to 3-1 this season. The shutout over the Sun Devils was her second this season.
ASU outshot the Lobos, 22-9, but could find the net against a stingy Lobo defense. The Sun Devils fired 13 shots in the second half and finished the match with nine shots on goal.
The Lobos return to action Sunday, Sept. 30 at Northern Arizona in Flagstaff, Ariz. The match is slated to start at 1 p.m. MT with results posted on www.GoLobos.com.

Mike the Movie Guy on January 28th, 2013 | MOVIE REVIEWS
The dramatic "Beasts of the Southern Wild" portrays a wild realistic take on a post apocalyptic adventure. As the polar ice caps melt flooding their bayou home and her father's diminishing health, six-year old Hushpuppy travels through the world while going through a journey of growth learning courage and love along the way. Along with the ice-caps melting ancient monsters are released into the world bringing yet another element to the journey Hushpuppy is forced to go through.
First time leading actress Quvenzhané Wallis thrills audiences with powerfully compassionate acting. Warm hearted and caring while fierce and strong. This young actress takes the audience through an emotionally charged journey along with her. Her father Wink played by Dwight Henry comes off as heartless and mean treating his daughter harshly in order to prepare her for the harsh world that is to come after he has passed. The journey follows Hushpuppy and the advancement of the strange ancient beasts.
The audience is brought into this world and wants this young child to overcome all her tragic troubles. The story is intense and far from simple but can take itself much too serious. The acting is spectacular but progression of the storyline seems to stall as the message of the film is prolonged. The main characters are seen as savages not using any technology and living a very earthly existence.
I give this film a 3 out of 5 popcorn. Although touching and moving progression seems to slow almost to a stop in certain points. It's an excellent story and quite a social commentary on the human spirit. I do recommend this film but may not be a must see film it may be better enjoyed waiting to see it on DVD or Netflix. As for its Oscar nominations, it is a great film but contends against strong films in every category nominated.

All-new, matching Daylight 18" aluminum passenger cars are also available.
The all-new, scale-sized Lionel Western Pacific GS-64 includes separately applied piping, pumps and appliances like those found under the running boards of the prototype. While based on the GS-2 design, the GS-64's received some of the improvements found in the later Daylights, such as the GS-4. Many of these differences are captured in this new Lionel locomotive, including an air intercooler on the pilot deck, the distinctive 235-R tender and an all-weather cab with opening roof hatches, side doors and rear access doors.
"These locomotives are not GS-4's with minor modifications to make them look like GS-2's and GS-64's," said Lionel product manager Todd Wagner. "We're proud to be the first company to produce these locomotives in die-cast metal correctly from the ground up."
Aside from capturing details specific to each prototype, both of these TrainMaster® Command Control equipped locomotives contain the latest high-performance features, from the Odyssey® System for speed control and synchronized, fan-driven smoke, to the exclusive Wireless Tether™ connection between the locomotive and tender. Both models also include the revolutionary new RailSounds® 5.0 sound system, customized for each locomotive.

I have a funny story about that. I was playing in a summer community band several years ago when I was in college. The band performed on an outdoor band shell. We had two directors- one was the high school orchestra director, and the other was high school band (I didn't go to high school there, so I wasn't a student of either). The band director was always fairly short with people so I didn't care for him much.
Well, the last time I ever played for him, we had an interesting march to play for the concert finale. Another high school drummer had come for the rehearsal but had blown off the performance, so I had to sit in on the part. It was a traditional march, but for some reason, instead of bass drum on 1, 3 and snare on 2, 4 (boom chick), it was reversed (chick boom). No problem to me, I'm a senior music major and can read it.
So I start playing, "Chick Boom", and the director immediately looks over at me with frustration on his face and tries to give me a bigger beat. I'm staring right at him and keep the snare coming on 1 and the bass on 2. I'm not sure if he just didn't bother looking at his own chart or what (I'm pretty sure the kid at rehearsal ignored the music and played "boom chick"), but he now starts slowing down and speeding up his tempo in an attempt to get me to turn around my pattern. Like a good musician, of course, I follow his fluctuations, and he's getting angrier and angrier.
After about 64 measures of this cut time battle, the song ends, and after the bows, I'm the first to grab the music and head up front to let him know I was not being disrespectful (and also for a bit of my own ego- I know I wasn't wrong). He listens for about three seconds and then turns away, still furious with me. I head back to start tearing down my gear.
Here's where it gets good. Domed band shell, remember? I'm sitting on one side of the shell, tearing down percussion equipment, and the director was wandered to the opposite side of the shell to talk to a band member. Thanks to the dome, although they are standing more than 30 feet away, I can hear their quiet conversation as if they're standing right next to me. Now I'm hearing the conductor call ME stupid and claim that I ruined the song. Ooooh, now I'm steamed.
I wait for about five minutes and walk up to the director, who has calmed down significantly. I start by saying, "You know, this dome is really cool; you can hear things from the other side of it as if they are right next to you!" He starts rambling about the science of that, but I interrupt, "My point is, if you're going to speak badly of someone, you should make sure you're somewhere that you can't be heard!" I handed him my folder, with the last march music on top, and left.
For the rest of the season, I only played for the orchestra director, and never played for them again after that.

Theology, if it is to be a dynamic force in the world and not a lifeless relic, needs to be a continual process of reinterpretation, says Peter Hodgson. This sweeping reconstruction of theology in the postmodern period is a return to the process of continual theological revisioning through a constructive theology that has seemingly been abandoned by postmodern thinkers.

Moreover, both arts accord a central role to the materials employed. Both involve measuring and proportioning, shaping and designing, assembling and composing.

Two suffer serious burns in St Austell B&B blast
Posted: October 15, 2012|
A fire which left two people in hospital with serious burns may have been started inadvertently by some residents allegedly sniffing butane gas.
Police say they are treating the blaze, at the guest house in the centre of St Austell late on Saturday night, as suspicious.
A total of 15 people were evacuated from Trevanion Lodge in Trevanion Road, following a small explosion.
Eight people were treated for smoke inhalation, while two were treated by paramedics at the scene for burns before being taken to the Royal Cornwall Hospital at Truro.
The pair were last night still being treated at the hospital, where their injuries are described as serious but not life threatening.
Inspector Andy Oliver, of Devon and Cornwall Police, said an investigation was underway and the fire was being treated as "suspicious."
"At this time we are investigating the cause of fire in connection with the fire brigade," he said.
"One line of inquiry that is being followed up is that the fire might have been caused inadvertently by two males reportedly sniffing butane gas in a room prior to the explosion.
"Two males remain in a serious condition in hospital with burn injuries. At this time the injuries do not appear life threatening."
Suzy Cooper, manager of Trevanion Lodge, which describes itself as a family run B&B, said it had been a "traumatic" event but they were thankful lives had not been lost.
"We have been saying that it could have been so much worse," she said. "All our fire procedures were in place and we acted quickly and it saved everyone in the building."
She said the contents of one room were "disintegrated" but from the outside the fire door had remain intact and stopped the blaze spreading.
Mrs Cooper said the B&B hoped to reopen shortly, but until then it was closed, which was a double blow for their clients.
"We have got to shut off part of the building," she said.
"We offer emergency housing for homeless people so with this fire they have been made homeless again, which is awful for them.
"We hope to be open again within 24 hours. It's just going to be a lot of hard work."
Eighteen firefighters from St Austell and Mevagissey battled the blaze on the first floor of the property after the alarm was raised at around 11.20pm.
Initial reports that people were trapped in the burning building proved unfounded.

They say that less is more, and that's definitely true for these lovely ladies who hit up the 2012 Emmys red carpet with short haircuts! Girls star Lena Dunham made her first big Hollywood event appearance since "Miley-ing" her hair a few weeks back, and just like Ms. Cyrus she looks ahhhh-mazing! We're especially diggin' the smokey eyes makeup. Mad Men's Elisabeth Moss also showed off her newly short 'n' blonde 'do, while Julianne Hough had us fooled by pinning her long tresses in a cute 1920s flapper fringe. Ginnifer Goodwin loked adorable as ever with her trademark pixie, so there's no surprise there. And then there's Jeremy Davies, who apparently got into a fight with some hedge clipper wielding dude. Or maybe he just got run over by a lawn mower. In any event, it's a dramatic look, similar to the hairstyle we rocked when we were three and cut our own hair. Get a closer look in the gallery below! And then cast your vote in our poll for who had the best short 'do.

Lucy Harbin returns unexpectedly to her farm after a trip out of town and discovers her husband in bed with another woman. Crazed, she grabs an ax and hacks the lovers to death in full view of her 3-year-old daughter, Carol. Lucy is committed to an asylum and her brother and sister-in-law take Carol and move west to another farm. Twenty years later Lucy is released from the asylum and comes to find her family. Carol, now a talented sculptress, is in love with wealthy young Michael Fields. The girl is anxious for her dowdy mother to look as she did 20 years earlier and persuades her to wear makeup, a black wig, youthful clothing, and jangling jewelry. Lucy behaves badly when she meets Michael; and the arrival of Dr. Anderson, the psychiatrist who treated her at the asylum, upsets her further. The doctor tells Carol that he thinks Lucy should return to the asylum and he is about to tell Lucy when he is hacked to death in a farm building. Later, Lucy tells Carol that the doctor left, but the girl finds the doctor's car and, suspecting that Lucy has reverted to violence, she hides the car. A hired hand sees her, and the next day Carol finds him repainting the car, which he says is his. She fires him but he refuses to leave, threatening to reveal that he discovered Dr. Anderson's body in the meat refrigerator. Lucy overhears the conversation, and the hired hand is later found axed to death. That night Lucy meets Michael's parents and she nervously reveals the couple's plan to wed. Mrs. Fields objects and is rude to Lucy, who flies into a rage, vows that nothing will stop the marriage, and rushes from the house. Later that night, Mr. Fields is chopped to death and, when his wife investigates the noise, a woman who appears to be Lucy attempts to kill her, but Lucy walks in and stops her. The look-alikes grapple until Lucy strips a mask and wig from the other woman, revealing her own daughter, who had planned the deaths of her beau's parents even before Lucy's release. Carol has a complete breakdown and is committed to an asylum. Realizing that her own crime led to Carol's insanity, Lucy goes to care for her at the asylum.

New England Patriots
What the Patriots do best: Pass the ball.
To a Tom Brady-led passing game that produced a league-best 37 touchdowns, against a league-low five interceptions, the Patriots added a wideout who ranks fourth among active players in receiving yards (10,783) and fourth in touchdown catches (66). But whatever production the Patriots receive out of Chad Ochocinco, acquired from the Bengals for a fifth- and sixth-round pick, will be more of a nice bonus than essential.
That's because New England has one of the deepest pools of talented receiving options in the league. It starts with Wes Welker, continues through second-year rising deep threat Taylor Price and ends with second-year tight ends Rob Gronkowski and Aaron Hernandez, the best tandem of pass-catching tight ends in the league and each a matchup nightmare for opposing defenses. With the 34-year-old Brady still in his prime (even if his career is nearing its downswing), the Patriots' passing game should approach its performance in 2007, when it produced 4,859 yards through the air, the 12th-most ever.
What the Patriots need to improve: Their defensive line.
Make that, what the Patriots needed to improve. The line proved to be the team's fatal flaw last season, when it was overwhelmed by the Jets in their stunning second-round playoff victory in Foxborough -- New York rushed 29 times for 120 yards, including 17 attempts and 66 yards up the middle, and Mark Sanchez wasn't sacked once. After a long offseason, Bill Belichick acted decisively in restocking his line around centerpiece Vince Wilfork, adding tackle Albert Haynesworth and veteran pass-rushing ends Mark Anderson, Andre Carter and Shaun Ellis. The nature of that personnel suggests that Belichick plans to move away from his base 3-4 alignment into a 4-3, but Belichick promises fluidity.
"How, strategically, we want to move guys around and put them in certain alignments, or how to configure them relative to certain formations and tie it in with coverage and things like that -- I think there's flexibility there," the coach says, in his usual cards-concealing way. Still, it looks as if New England's major problem has been solved. "I envision it as being one of the best defenses around," says Wilfork. "I hope."
Which Patriot needs to step up: Punter Zoltan Mesko.
Mesko wasn't called upon much as a rookie, due to the Patriots' highly efficient offense: he was 26th in the league in punts. That meant that when Mesko did trot onto the field, something had gone wrong -- as it might in the several playoff games for which these Patriots surely seem headed. "It definitely requires a greater degree of focus on the sideline," Mesko says of his lack of use. "But I'm getting mental reps if I'm not in there, or if I am."
Predicted record: 14-2
The Patriots seem certain to win the season's first four games, and its last four (if they need to). Their only potential roadblocks might come in a relatively difficult mid-season stretch, particularly in games at Pittsburgh (Week 8), at the Jets (Week 10) and at Philadelphia (Week 12). Then will come the playoffs -- in which, it must be said, New England hasn't won a game since 2007.

summer school 2014
browse by period: renaissance
WEEK 1: 14-18 July 2014
Course 2: Dr Janet Robson
A Tale of Two Cities: Florence, Siena and the Birth of Renaissance Art
Bernardo Daddi, The Virgin and Child enthroned, triptych, detail, 1338, © The Samuel Courtauld Trust, The Courtauld Gallery, LondonEver since Giorgio Vasari in the sixteenth century championed Cimabue and Giotto as the first great Italian artists, Florence has been proclaimed as the birthplace of the Italian Renaissance. But how accurate is this idea? Despite the fame of Giotto, his style was not the only one favoured in his native city, nor was painting in early Renaissance Italy completely dominated by Florentines. Sienese artists were just as successful, even winning major commissions from Florentine patrons. This course will reassess the relative contributions of Florence and Siena in the renewal of Italian painting between c.1280 and 1348. We will examine panel paintings and frescoes created by leading artists from the two rival cities, including the Florentines Cimabue, Giotto, Taddeo Gaddi and Bernardo Daddi, and the Sienese masters Duccio, Simone Martini, and Ambrogio and Pietro Lorenzetti. Can their work usefully be characterized as 'Florentine' or 'Sienese'? Or was the style of painting produced in the two cities determined by other factors, such as the function of the work, its patrons and viewers? The course will include visits to the National Gallery and The Courtauld Gallery.
Course 3: Dr Susan Jones and Clare Richardson
Jan van Eyck and Rogier van der Weyden: Materials, Methods and Meanings
The fee for this course is £475 as the group will be limited to 10 students; this also includes the cost of course materials
This course is now FULL
This course will examine Early Netherlandish painting in terms of the materials and methods it employed, and the meanings it delivered, by focusing on its most celebrated practitioners: Jan van Eyck and Rogier van der Weyden. Through case studies of such paintings as van Eyck's enigmatic Arnolfini Portrait and van der Weyden's haunting Descent from the Cross, we will explore how their extraordinary work achieved its effects and how it was valued and viewed by their patrons. We will trace the artists' creative processes by investigating the properties and possibilities of oil paint, the manufacture and preparation of panel supports, the design and underdrawing of compositions, and the procedures of paint application. Consideration of the contexts for which paintings were intended will further elucidate their meaning, using the latest research to investigate questions of audience, setting and function. Students will be introduced to the technical research methods employed by art historians to understand panel paintings: original objects will be scrutinised in The Courtauld's Conservation Studios using microscopy, x-radiography, and infrared reflectography. We will visit The Courtauld Gallery, the National Gallery and the British Museum to look at works by van Eyck and van der Weyden, their contemporaries and followers.
WEEK TWO: 21–25 July 2014
Course 9: Caroline Brooke
Art, Money and Power: Medici Patronage in Florence c. 1420-1570
This course is now FULL
The name 'Medici' is synonymous with artistic innovation and achievement during the Renaissance in Florence. This course examines the art patronage of more than five generations of the dynasty, from the emergence of the family as a political force early in the Renaissance, to the establishment of the grand duke dynasty that reigned for almost two centuries. It focuses on the commissions of Cosimo the Elder, Piero the Gouty, Lorenzo the Magnificent, and Cosimo I Grand Duke of Tuscany, in order to consider how the political, religious and social aspirations of individual members of the Medici family shaped the cultural and artistic life of the city. The works of major Florentine artists such as Donatello, Fra Filippo Lippi, Michelangelo and Bronzino are examined in relation to the tastes and aspirations of their patrons, as manifestations of civic pride, devotion, and personal ambition. Issues such as familial pietas, the varying fortunes of the Medici bank and the political climate of the period are also considered in relation to the development of Medicean patterns of patronage. Visits include the British Museum, the National Gallery and the Victoria and Albert Museum.
Please note that Dr Scott Nethersole's Study Tour to Florence from 4 – 6 September will pursue some of the themes of power and patronage discussed during the week. Both course and tour are, however, entirely freestanding events and attendance at one does not require attendance at the other.
WEEK THREE: 28 July - 1 August 2014
Course 18: Dr Susan Jones
Art and Society in Renaissance Bruges
This course is now FULL
This course will consider how objects in a range of media were used, viewed and understood in fifteenth- and early sixteenth-century Bruges. Over five days, we will study works of art that illuminate five different but overlapping spheres in the life of this important Netherlandish trade emporium and cultural centre: the town government, the Burgundian court, international trade, the church and privately-funded projects. For each of these areas, we will select objects and related documents which can help us to understand rituals, ideas, values and beliefs that characterized contemporary Bruges society. These will include some of the most splendid and exquisitely-crafted objects of a period in which the love of materials was matched by a growing awareness of the unique artistic skill of individual craftsmen: illuminated manuscripts by the Ghent-Bruges school, the fifteenth-century stained glass windows from the Chapel of the Holy Blood, exquisite enamel silverware from the Burgundian court, and, of course, the sophisticated and technically brilliant panel paintings of Jan van Eyck, Petrus Christus, Hans Memling and Gerard David. We will visit the rich collections of objects made in Bruges and Flanders in London collections, including the Victoria and Albert Museum, the National Gallery and the British Library.
Please note that Dr Jones will also explore the great artistic tradition of Bruges during a Study Tour from 12 – 14 September 2013. Both Summer School course and Tour are entirely free-standing and one does not require participation in the other
WEEK FOUR: 4 - 8 August 2014
Course 26: Dr Geoffrey Nuttall
Lucca and the Courts of Europe, 1350-1450: Merchants of Luxury and Patrons of Art
The sumptuous garments worn by the rulers of Europe in innumerable manuscript illustrations and paintings are representations of the fabulous silks manufactured and supplied to them by merchants from the small Tuscan city of Lucca. These fabulously wealthy men, who were unique in being not only consumers, but also producers of luxury goods, provided kings, popes and princes not only with gorgeous robes but with every imaginable luxury, from pearls to tapestries. On their own behalf, they commissioned some of the most famous yet enigmatic masterpieces of early Renaissance art; Jan van Eyck's Arnolfini Double Portrait, Gentile da Fabriano's Adoration of the Magi, and Jacopo della Quercia's Tomb of Ilaria del Carretto.
This course explores the art of Lucchese silk and the cosmopolitan patronage of the international merchants who controlled the industry. We will look at their contacts with the great courts of France, Burgundy and England, and explore how the Lucchese networks promoted artistic exchange between Italy and Northern Europe. Visits will include the National Gallery, the British Museum, the Victoria and Albert Museum and The Courtauld Gallery.
Course 27: Dr Michael Douglas-Scott
Might and Munificence: Court Patronage in Renaissance Ferrara, Mantua, Rimini and Urbino
This course is now FULL
During the fifteenth and sixteenth centuries, some of the most sophisticated courts of Europe were concentrated in a few small towns in north-eastern Italy. The most significant were at Ferrara, Mantua, Rimini and Urbino, each dominated by a ruling dynasty, respectively the Este, Gonzaga, Malatesta and Montefeltro. From these families emerged some of the most magnificent patrons of the Renaissance in the visual arts, music, literature and humanist learning: Isabella d'Este and her brother Alfonso, Lodovico Gonzaga and his pleasure-loving descendent Federico, Sigismondo Malatesta and his arch-rival Federico of Montefeltro. Their reputations have been immortalized by Piero della Francesca, Andrea Mantegna, Leonbattista Alberti, Leonardo da Vinci and Titian. How did these rulers attract such major figures to work for them? What motivated them to spend so much on the arts? How could they compete with much larger, more powerful, and richer states in the patronage of sophisticated culture? How did their refined taste come to be adopted elsewhere in Italy and then influence much of European culture? There will be visits to the National Gallery, the Victoria and Albert Museum, the British Library and the British Museum to examine first-hand some of the finest products of these splendid courts.

Awesome bibs
Great bibs !!! Got a pair a month ago. I thought the fit was too tight and felt odd, until about 1/2 hour into the first ride, then it felt like they disappeared and molded to my body. 6'1" 215lb, bought XL. My favorite bibs, hands down. I love the look of Capo gear, not flashy.

Jackson's Kim Boobyer to coach women's golf team
Jackson Community College is pleased to announce that Kim Boobyer will be the new women's golf coach for the 2010-2011 season.
Boobyer is a Jackson native and local professional golf instructor, teaching at several different courses. She's played golf since her freshman year of high school, and apprenticed under PGA and LPGA professionals for nine years, in Naples, Fla. and in Jackson.
Jackson has a lot of talent to offer on the links, and Boobyer looks forward to working with the JCC team.
"I want to mentor our young women and develop a competitive team," Boobyer said. "I want to develop not just young athletes, but remarkable people who are winners in life and not just on the playing field. I want to help them develop character and build confidence so they can be not only the best athlete but also the best person they can be."
In her personal life, she is married to husband, David, himself a JCC student who played on the men's team last year. She has one stepson, Jack, who is 12, and a daughter, Samantha, who is 5. Boobyer is a member of St. Mary's Star of the Sea Catholic Church and is active in her parish.

Jack, if you had listened to the debate on the bill, you would have heard the Democrats repeating your first two sentences. They were trying to amend the bill to guarantee that the jobs would go to Pennsylvanians rather than workers from other states. The Republicans rejected that language.
I guess it can't spell then.
House Majority Leader Mike Turzai recently stated that the Voter ID law will help Romney win in PA. That's all you need to know about the motivation for passing this law. It has nothing to do with fraud.
Barletta and Daryl Metcalfe need to give it a rest.
Does anyone know what material was used to make this? I think the first one was made of Venetian blinds (honestly). I'm curious what this one is made of.
The kids will just turn this into a badge of honor as an outward sign of defying school policy.
Word is that the budget meeting last night was cancelled because Corbett dug in and refused to attend. The budget may come down to the wire (again) to meet the deadline on Saturday night. It was signed with about 5 minutes to spare last year. And this with a Republican governor and Republican legislature. It appears at least that the legislators are listening to their constituents. Please have more budget-related articles, Jan. There have been too few.
Is the road closed?
Death Comes to Pemberly was terrible. Very disappointing considering it was written by P.D. James. Austen fans almost universally have given it two thumbs down. Ridiculous plot and errorneous references to other Austen works.
I'm glad the people will have a chance to education themselves rather than rely on second hand information from people with an agenda.
Oh for Pete's sake people. So you find out 5 minutes later than you otherwise would have.
According to Pittsburgh Post-Gazette: "The withdrawn charges were two counts of involuntary deviate sexual intercourse and one of aggravated indecent assault, all related to the accuser known as Victim 4. In his order amending the charges, the judge wrote that charges of anal and digital penetration were withdrawn because the witness testified that Mr. Sandusky "attempted" anal intercourse and digital penetration."
Come on, PN! Do you have any reporters at the capitol? Every other media outlet is reporting the actual agreed to spend number - 27.656 billion. That is close to what the Senate Republicans proposed and $500 million above what the Governor proposed in February. Some real reporting would be appreciated.
Perhaps the PN could manage an article about the hung jury down the road in the Philadelphia groundbreaking court case of the Roman Catholic pedophile scandal coverup. That has worldwide implications, and not a word in the PN about it.
If Amendola views this trial as something for entertainment value and excitement, then he is as sick as Sandusky.
Correct. The PG reported the judge dropped one count against Victim 1. That is not reported in this PN article. It says the prosecutor withdrew one count on Victim 7, and then says the judge denied all of the motions for dismissal. How can they attend the same trial and have differing accounts? I'm going with the PG, which is far more accurate and more clearly written.
"Decision of the century"?? The century is only 12 years long! I really dislike when journalists throw around terms like that. The O.J. Simpson trial was touted as the "trial of the century." Was that more important than the the Nuremburg trials?
The Pittsburgh Post-Gazette is reporting that the judge dropped charges against Victim 1.
Hmm. Law professor, state representative, U.S. Senator. I'm not sure what kind of "real job" qualifies in your world. To me, if you are earning a paycheck and paying taxes, then you have a real job.
You can't have it both ways. If you want the government to cut back and for charities and others to step up, then don't be surprised when this situation arises. Do you want government with reduced budgets to fund non-essential things like fireworks or essential programs?
