Often, this is called a coma or being in a comatose state.Other changes in awareness can occur without becoming unconscious. Medically, these are called "altered mental status" or "changed mental status." They include sudden confusion, disorientation, or stupor.Unconsciousness or any other sudden change in mental status must be treated as a medical emergency.If someone is awake but less alert than usual, ask a few simple questions, such as:What is your name? What is the date? How old are you?

Some time ago, Kevin Bieksa let it slip that every member of the Canucks had an animal nickname. He even gave us a line on a few: David Booth was Grizzly, Ryan Kesler was Bull, Keith Ballard was Wolf, Alex Edler was Eagle, and Jannik Hansen was the Honey Badger.
As for the rest, we were left to speculate wildly. Were the Sedins red pandas? Who is Fox? Was Sami Salo the poisonous Finnish snake that once bit him? Short of additional clues, there was simply no way of knowing.
Lucky for us, David Booth provided one such clue following Thursday night's 4-3 victory over the Montreal Canadiens, praising the play of one "Whitetail".
Canuck nation very nearly exploded with the reveal of a new animal nickname. It was like Battlestar Galactica revealing the next Cylon, except it took place on Twitter, not during an intergalactic space war.
But, unfortunately, the nickname was all Booth gave us. Who the heck is Whitetail?
Well, the list of suspects is a short one. Because Booth praises a "sick goal", we can instantly trim the candidates down to the goal scorers in Montreal: Mason Raymond, Cody Hodgson, and Sami Salo. Of course, knowing what we know about the trio, it could be any one of them.
Salo, for instance, is among the palest men to walk the earth. He's as white as a sheet, so the nickname would suit him. Meanwhile, Hodgson is a young buck, so the comparison to a white-tailed deer wouldn't be far off. And fans have been calling Raymond "Bambi" for a few years now, what for his boyishness and oft-flailing limbs. I can assure you the Canucks have noticed. Trust me: they see your Tumblr account.
I think we can rule out Salo simply because his goal, a shot from the point, wasn't exactly a highlight-reel tally. Furthermore, Salo only had an okay night, and I can't imagine Booth singling him out for looking "sick", unless he meant in terms of his pallid skin tone.
So that leaves Hodgson and Raymond, and my money's on Raymond. Why? Nice as Hodgson's shot was, it didn't come on the heels of a toe drag that was the textbook definition of "sick." Raymond's was the highlight-reel goal. And furthermore, Raymond had the truly sick game, with 11 shots attempted, a goal, and a phantom assist while skating in Booth's place on the second line. His was likely the game that stood out to Booth, especially since Raymond was skating in Booth's place on the second line.
Ryan Kesler praised Raymond's play as well.
To summarize: Raymond had the the pre-existing Bambi nickname, the standout game, and the standout goal. Mason Raymond is Whitetail.
Edit: Kevin Bieksa appeared on the Team 1040 Friday morning and cleared this mystery up for us, explaining that no, Sami Salo can't be Whitetail, because his animal nickname is already Owl. (And then he hooted.)
And, while Juice wouldn't budge on what Cody Hodgson's animal nickname was, he made sure to point out that A) it isn't Whitetail, and B) it's great.
So "Whitetail" has to be Mason Raymond, right? Maybe not.
Apparently, Booth went rogue on this one, and he's not allowed to make up nicknames because he's not on the "council". (Seriously, what the heck.) Anyway, the council — which includes Ballard, Hamhuis, and Bieksa — has not approved this as Raymond's official nickname.Tags: canuck animals, investigative journalism
Whoever Whitetail turns out to be, will he not be somewhat concerned to have been given that name by someone who's, y'know, this guy?
Nothing about this doesn't make me extraordinarily happy. So many amazing questions. There's a Council!?!?! Ballards on it!?!?! Is Ballard's nickname Mallard?!?! Why won't they let Booth participate!!?!? Seriously, how'd Ballard make the Council!?!?! Is Kevin Bieksa really just a 30-year-old, hockey-playing, mean girl?!?!?
Can you please do a list of all the nicknames we know, the ones that are in question, and the ones we'd like to see? I, for one, think that Whitetail is perfect for MayRay. Let Booth on the Coucil! Come'on the guy is out 4-6 weeks; let him use that time to make up nicknames!
I thought it was obvious that Whitetail was meant to be Raymond, just because you know it's going to be a speedy/graceful animal with him… things people don't really associate with Cody Hodgson. (In your original post on this topic, I think I suggested "Gazelle" for Raymond).
The veto from Bieksa is just… come on now, it was a good one, Kevin!
In answer to Sarah above — as noted, Ballard is actually "Wolf," although "Duck" would have been pretty hilarious (and somehow appropriate, I feel, even beyond the pun).
I thought Kevin rejected the name for Cody ("..he has a really good nickname, not gonna change it to Whitetail…"), but although he didn't say it wasn't Raymond's, he did say it was the "first he'd heard of that nickname". Who knows – Bieksa doesn't like to give away too much info at a time, and he did give us "owl" (whooo-whooo).
It looks like this council is made of Kevin Bieksa's D-partners.
As Booth is a forward I think he has little chance of making the council.
Although maybe Booth can convince AV will do a switcheroo so he can play with Bieksa. Like how Alberts got moved to the fourth line, only reverse.
In any case, Kevin seems to have formed a defensive clique, with secret code nicknames for everyone.

Sick of hearing about Bret Michaels' naked Billboard cover yet? Too bad! The latest development in the story of the cover that inspired a generation is that it's an adequate representation of Bret's own physique. Billboard has provided a before-and-after comparison (above) of the untouched versus the touched-up shot and the picture's photographer, Blair Bunting, also has weighed in: "When he took off his shirt, I was like, 'This guy's in shape for 47!' It's always easy for someone to cry 'Photoshop,' so I wasn't too surprised by that…but he takes his shape seriously." Billboard photo editor Amelia Halverson says the retouching the photo did have was "pretty standard," adding, "I just don't know if he's more controversial, or if it's just more of a shocker that he took everything off and happens to have a nice body." Once again, Bret Michaels wins.
Meanwhile, on the topic of us upcoming reality show Bret Michaels: Life As I Know It (premiering Monday, October 18 at 10/9c), Bret recently told People: "[This] show is different because it is unprotected reality, proving how hard it is for me to balance my love for the girls and my work on the road. In the show, I learn both patience and negotiating skills from my daughters, and at the same time I talk to them about serious issues like life, death and protecting themselves from harm. It is totally fun!" Not only is he in the business of providing something to believe in, but he's also giving us something to look forward to. [Billboard/People]

101 is the application restaurant of Enderun Colleges, which is home to Southeast Asia's leading undergraduate culinary arts program. 101's seasonal menus are conceived by Enderun's world-renowned culinary faculty to showcase the techniques of traditional French cuisine, the bold flavors of the Asian market and a commitment to innovating with fresh, sustainable local ingredients. The restaurant's stylish interiors evoke the casual elegance of a contemporary Parisian bistro, while the student wait staff, working under the watchful eyes of the College's food and beverage faculty, brings freshness and unique charm to the 101 experience.
The restaurant, which offers monthly wine tasting dinners and affordable daily lunch specials, can also accommodate private parties and large-scale banquets, in two salon prives and a magnificent, high-ceilinged 240 square meter atrium. The chic Bar d'Etoiles, adjacent to the restaurant, serves some of Manila's finest cocktails under a stunning canopy of glass and starlight.
Restaurant 101 at Enderun Colleges is open from Monday to Saturday; from 11:30am to 2pm for lunch, and from 6 to 10pm for dinner.
Enderun's commitment to delivering a world-class educational experience to students and to establishing itself among the world's premier undergraduate management schools is nowhere more evident than in its commitment to developing world-class facilities.
The Enderun campus in Fort Bonifacio sets new standards for university design and construction in the Philippines. Situated on two lavishly landscaped hectares in the McKinley Hill area of Fort Bonifacio, the campus features academic buildings inspired by Asian colonial architecture, with more than 7,000 square meters of classroom space and state - of - the - art culinary center co-designed with one of the world's finest, Alain Ducasse Formation.
The campus is located in Fort Bonifacio, Taguig City, one of the fastest-rising hubs in Metro Manila, where numerous business and leisure establishments offer a diverse range of lifestyle choices. Enderun's neighboring buildings at the McKinley Hill township house some members of the country's business process outsourcing sector, including Accenture, Lawson, and Hewlett-Packard. Premium hotel brands are breaking ground in Taguig City, including the Shangri-La at the Fort. All within a five-mile radius are international schools (International School Manila, British International School, Chinese International School, Korean International School), embassies (United Kingdom, South Korea, Singapore, Qatar), shopping and dining destinations (Serendra, Market! Market!, Bonifacio High Street), the Makati Central Business District, domestic and international airports, Makati Medical Center and the soon-to-open St. Luke's Medical Center.

PIERRE, S.D. (AP) – The South Dakota Agriculture Department says it can help beginning farmers buy land at lower interest rates through a bond program.
The Beginning Farmer Bond program works through a local bank to finance a land purchase. The bond program allows a lender to get tax-exempt interest for a loan or contract sale, and that lowers the interest rate paid by a beginning farmer.
To take part in the program, a beginning farmer must be a South Dakota resident at least 18 years old and have a net worth of less than $400,000. The maximum amount of a beginning farmer bond is $501,100 for calendar year 2013.
The South Dakota Agriculture Department administers the program through the Value-Added Finance Authority board, which reviews applications and issues bonds for approved projects.

Sandis Ozolinsh had a superstition about talking to reporters on game day. He tried to avoid them as much as possible, especially during the playoffs.
So one day he switched his nameplate with Alexei Smirnov's and kept his head down while removing his equipment. Since most of the media that covered the finals couldn't tell him from Smirnov, it was a pretty smart move.
Only one reporter tried to approach Ozolinsh. "Sandis what's up with this?" the reporter asked, pointing at the switched nameplates.
"Hey, I'm Alexei."
End of interview.

Yesterday I was watching a video- a historical perspective on hunger- for work. It was during a meeting in which we were supposed to begin the planning process for a new outreach program. Anyway, there were three of us in the room- one of my staff and the gentleman from the state who was showing the video. There is a scene in the video that shows a baby dying from malnutrition and I mean literally dying. They are resuscitating the baby and then they stop and the baby dies. I froze. I couldn't breathe, couldn't move, just froze. It was like ripping the bandaid off of a wound- I couldn't do anything but remember my precious Gabriel and think about about that horrible moment of his death.
I think my staff person knew what was going on in my head, but the guy from the state was oblivious. And I didn't say a thing. At the time I kept thinking "He doesn't know, it's not his fault." Now I'm so mad at myself for not chewing him out about how inappropriate that was. I don't understand why they have to include such images for shock value- particularly when most people viewing the documentary are already familiar with the issue. I'm hurt, extremely angry, and still at a loss as to how I could have handled that differently.

Air Force bans access to sites of newspapers posting WikiLeaks documents
Star & Stripes
The Air Force has banned access from its computers to the websites of The New York Times and more than two dozen other press organizations that have posted classified documents provided by WikiLeaks.
"We're looking out for the safeguarding of our systems," said Lt. Col Jack Miller, an Air Force spokesman at the Pentagon.
Safeguarding your systems from what? Your "systems" are inanimate objects, and I fail to see how they are threatened in any manner by being able to access a newspaper web site.
The entire websites of major international newspapers, including London's The Guardian and Germany's Der Spiegel, fall under the ban. But, Miller said, the Air Force is only blocking websites that have posted full classified documents, not news sites that only report about WikiLeaks or include excerpts in their stories.
Miller gave two reasons for the ban — to control access to classified information, and to protect Air Force networks.
1) Once classified information has been publicly disseminated, it is, de facto, no longer "classified". 2) Again, what are your protecting inanimate object from? How does access to a web site that contains no malware, and is not controlled by a hostile country pose a threat, of any kind, to the physical integrity, or security of your computers/networks
What you are really trying to do here is stuff the genie back in the bottle, and prevent PEOPLE, specifically AMERICAN CITIZENS (airmen and civilians) from reading about how the government is lying its ass off.
Folks, contrary to what you read in the corporate press, nothing revealed so far has hurt ANYONE. What these leaked cables have done is strip away the facade of legitimacy the government operates under. No one has published ICBM launch code, blown the cover of a CIA agent (well, except for Karl Rove and Dick Cheney), or revealed plans of how to build a nuke.So, what has Wikileaks revealed?
• The U.S. Army hid prisoners from the International Red Cross while claiming they didn't.
• A British Ministry of Defense document on how to prevent documents from being leaked (somebody has a sense of humor).
• That British newspapers were under secret gag orders which prevented them from reporting on statements made on the record in Parlament or and that those secret gag orders even existed. In essence, a private corporation was preventing the press and the British government from publicly discussing its criminal activity in the Ivory Coast.
• That a multinational oil commodity trader operating in Britain had illegally dumped toxic waste along the Ivory Coast.
• That Google is happy to hand over the IP addresses of journalists to foreign property developers involved in the bribery of public officials in the Turks & Caicos Islands.
• That Guantanamo is still a concentration camp and still violates national and international law in its treatment of prisoners. Most of these prisoners are still held without charge, in DIRECT violation of the U.S. Constitution and the most basic tenants of human decency.
• That the U.S. military continues to use monstrous weapons like napalm.
• That the Australian government had established a black list of web sites that it was using to "protect" Australian citizens from being exposed to things like Satanism, Christianity, and school cafeteria consultants.
• That the U.S. government is spying on U.N. leaders
• That the Bush/Obama administration pressured the Spanish government to drop murder investigations into the actions of U.S. soldiers.
• That that the U.S. Army is operating alongside Pakistani troops, inside Pakistan with the approval of the Pakistani government. I am sure that working alongside soldiers who routinely murder and torture people will not cause the U.S. any grief in the future.
• That the Pakistani government is diverting hundred of millions of dollars in U.S. "anti-terrorism" aid to other purposes, probably into the pockets of government officials.
• That the American mercenary corporation Blackwater seem to believe itself above all law, not just American law.
• That the U.S. and British governments colluded to get around Britain's ban on cluster bombs.
• That the U.S. hand-picked leader of Afghanistan is corrupt and crazy.
• That Italian PM Berlusconi is corrupt. (Apparently, years old common knowledge is cutting edge, "Confidential" intelligence to U.S. diplomats).
• That another American mercenary corporation, DynCorp, was involved in drugs and child prostitution. (And don't let the euphemism "dancing boys" lead you astray, this is all about raping children).
• That the U.S. government has started acting like a credit card company and charging junk fees to its allies for handling money donated to Afghanistan.
• That the U.S. government's utterly failed "war on drugs" has reached a point that the Mexican government fears it will lose control of parts of the nation to drug cartels.
• That our European allies halted U.S. programs to monitor European bank transactions when they began to suspect that the U.S. was using the information for economic and industrial espionage, rather than anti-terrorism efforts. The U.S. has since managed to pressure the E.U. into restarting the program.
• That Shell Oil is running its own spy agency and has completely infiltrated the Nigerian government at every level. The U.S. government knows this and does not object.
• That the U.S. government has asked Uganda to consult with the U.S. government prior to committing war crimes using U.S. provided intelligence. Apparently, war crimes are OK, if you ask permission.
• That the Obama administration is a lobbyist for Visa and MasterCard .
• That the U.S. government threatened Germany in order to prevent extradition demands for CIA agents who illegally kidnapped an innocent German national, imprisoned, raped and tortured him, then dumped him in Albania when the they finally figured out the man was innocent.
• That drug company Phizer hired "investigators" to dig up blackmail evidence on the Nigerian Attorney General, in order to derail a criminal and civil investigation into the company's use of Nigerian children in a drug trial without proper informed consent. (Perhaps Phizer could have saved itself a lot of trouble if it had contacted the Shell CIA).
• That Pope Ratzinger was personally pushing to keep Turkey out of the European Union because it was a Muslim country.
• That Pope Ratzinger was outraged that the Irish government dared investigate the Catholic Church for sexual abuse of children and for placing the well-being of children above "Vatican sovereignty" .
As you can see, these leaks paint a nasty picture of government corruption, hypocrisy and the increasing power of corporations in ruling the planet. This reason, and this reason alone is why every effort is being made to shut Wikileaks down.
On another note, a big controversy is brewing over the allegations of rape against Mr. Assange. Now what is interesting is that I have heard commentators make all sorts of assertions about the charges. I have heard, twice now, that Assange is wanted for having sex with a minor, yet I can find no source for this charge. According to The Guardian, Assange has NOT been charged with any crime, but is wanted for questioning due to the following allegations:
The first complainant, a Miss A, said she was the victim of "unlawful coercion" on the night of 14 August in Stockholm. The court heard Assange was alleged to have "forcefully" held her arms and used his bodyweight to hold her down. The second charge alleged he "sexually molested" her by having sex without using a condom, when it was her "express wish" that one should be used.
A third charge claimed Assange "deliberately molested" Miss A on 18 August.
A fourth charge, relating to a Miss W, alleged that on 17 August, he "improperly exploited" the fact she was asleep to have sex with her without a condom.
I have also heard numerous aspersions cast upon the character and reputation of the women making the accusation.
So, what is the truth?
We don't know. It is easy for me to say that the charges smell of an orchestrated attempt to smear Assange, but he could, in fact, be guilty of these crimes. I simply find it hard to believe that Swedish and British governments would be making this kind of effort if the person was NOT a man who had seriously humiliated the United States by his actions.
If these charges are valid, then Mr. Assange should be tried by a jury of his peers and his guilt determined. If he is found guilty, he should be punished as any other criminal. It is wrong to dismiss the women involved out of hand as "tools", and wrong to smear them without trial.
But, I would point out that even if Mr. Assange is found guilty and sent to prison, that in no way invalidates what he has done in exposing government corruption, hypocrisy, and abuse.

On the subject of Monday nights figures here in the UK.
Another mostly strong night for BBC1. Obviously the noticeable story there is the seeming stupidity of having Bake-Off clash with Miranda. A move made more stupid by the fact that it could seemingly have been avoid by either delaying Bake-Off for a few weeks (do we really need a comic relief special this early in the year?) or just scheduling it at 8PM. That half hour junction was an odd place to put it.
Sticking with BBC1 for a moment Blandings doing surprisingly well with a late night repeat.
On ITV Coronation Street produced the goods and Lewis continues to hold its own at 9PM. I know it hasn't been universally popular but the move to split this run into one hour two-parters has worked very well for them. I wonder how well it might have worked if they'd planned it ahead of time and the episodes were most obviously structured as hour longs. Might be something to look into if they get future runs.

And my point would be that its an incredibly tedious debate that just goes around in an endless circle. If someone doesn't like the numbers that have been posted because they do or don't include +1 they're perfectly capable of posting the numbers including or excluding +1 themselves rather than once again entering into (or encouraging) a tedious circular debate that goes nowhere and resolves nothing.
Lets all move on with our lives and stop getting hung up on channel x beat channel y narratives which appears to be all this stupid +1 debate is actually about.

Jakarta. The Jakarta administration has begun flexing its muscles in a crackdown on illegal on-street parking, issuing more than 100,000 tickets to offending motorists so far this year.
The crackdown is part of the administration's wider campaign to ease traffic congestion across the capital. Other strategies include targeting motorists caught using the busway lanes.
On Tuesday, Jakarta Traffic Police enforcement head Adj. Sr. Comr. Yakub said a total of 100,763 tickets had been issued this year to cars parked in no-parking zones.
He added a police survey showed the number of illegally parked cars on any given day represented up to 30 percent of the approximately 1.5 million cars on the roads each day.
Yakub said this severely reduced road space and hence contributed directly to the capital's notorious congestion.
"We're going to come down harder on those who park in no-parking zones in the future. They won't just have to deal with a ticket but also with the prospect of getting towed," Yakub said.
The crackdown has been welcomed by the nongovernmental Jakarta Transportation Council, which said the flagrant flouting of no-parking rules could no longer be tolerated and warranted an urgent response from authorities.
"The number of on-street parking spots must be limited," said council chairman Azas Tigor Nainggolan.
"Roads shouldn't be used as parking lots. We fully support the administration's move to phase out on-street parking in certain areas."
Tubagus Haryo Karbyanto, a lawyer who co-authored an academic paper on parking in the capital, also welcomed the administration's toughened stance on parking violations.
He said because of the contribution illegal parking made to worsening the city's traffic, such violations should be considered criminal acts and dealt with accordingly.
"It's about time the Jakarta administration showed some seriousness and resolve in cracking down on these violators," he said.
There are only 600 officially designated on-street parking spots across the city but the sheer number of vehicles means motorists tend to park anywhere there is an empty spot.
Business owners also contribute to the problem by roping off entire sections of sidewalk to use as parking lots.

What is Jock Itch?
Jock itch (tinea cruris), is a fungal infection of the skin in the groin that causes a scaly, red-brown patch accompanied by an itching, burning sensation. It is caused by the same fungus that causes athlete's foot.
Who gets jock itch?
Anyone can get jock itch although it is more common in men. The fungus grows in a warm, moist environment so activities that enhance this type of environment may lead to the infection, for example wearing sweaty or wet clothing for prolonged periods in the summer.
How does it occur?
Various factors can cause jock itch including:
Warmth, moisture and friction between skin folds
If you have another fungal infection such as athlete's foot, the infection may spread to the groin area via clothing or contact.
Wearing tight clothes which can increase sweating may aggravate the problem.
What are the symptoms of jock itch?
Jock itch appears as a red, itchy rash in the creases of the groin. The rash may advance down to the inner thighs and as the rash advances it may appear redder and more raised as well as scaly.
How to treat jock itch
The infection can be treated using a cream such as Canesten Cream. Canesten Cream contains a powerful anti-fungal agent which is proven to treat the infection.
Alternatively, Canesten Spray is a no mess treatment which can also be used to treat jock itch.
How to prevent the infection
Wearing loose fitting clothing and underwear will help stop the infection from re-occurring. You should avoid sharing clothes, towels or washcloths as the infection can be carried on items like these. Make sure you allow the skin to dry completely before dressing.

Employers added more than 200,000 jobs in April for the third straight month, the biggest hiring spree in five years. But the unemployment rate rose to 9 percent in part because some people resumed looking for work.
The Labor Department says the economy added 244,000 jobs last
month. Private employers shrugged off high gas prices and created
268,000 jobs - the most since February 2006.
The gains were widespread. Retailers, factories, financial
companies, education and health care and even construction
companies all added jobs. Federal, state and local governments cut
The data suggests businesses are confidence in the economy despite weak growth earlier this year.
Still, unemployment increased slightly from the 8.8 percent in
March. It was the first increase since November.

Well. I don't know what kind of weather you've been having where you are, but here in Chicago, we're receiving a little bit of a blizzard. Actually, that's not right. There's nothing little about it. Six inches of fluffy white fell fast and furious through the end of my work day and into my commute, meaning what usually makes for a 30-minute drive became just under two hours, full of fishtailing and slushy slow-crawling and, well, clutching the steering wheel while fighting back tears.
Through all that time in the car, I spent a lot of time thinking, mainly about how only an idiot doesn't fill up her gas tank the morning of a projected snowstorm. That was quickly followed, though, by the list of people I could call if I hit empty before reaching an exit, and then a realization that I am blessed indeed. Also, I knew that if I ever did reach home again (and I was praying with all my heart and shaking hands that I would), there was a golden roasted turkey waiting for me.
The turkey, a shining triumph in my eyes, was the fruit of having Monday off work and spending the day—where else?—in the kitchen. My blogging friend Macheesmo recently posted his version of Roasted Lemon Chicken, and the moment I saw it, I knew I would make it. I mean, really, look at it! Since he mentioned being inspired by Tyler Florence, I checked out Food Network as well, and what I created was a combination of the two recipes.
It was, simply, delicious: moist, tender, garlicky, filled with refreshing citrus. At first bite, it reminded me of those rotisserie chickens you can buy at the grocery store, which, if you were to spy on me when I need a fast meal, is the kind of thing you'd see me grabbing, along with a loaf of fresh, crusty Italian bread.
But a few more bites in, I realized it was better. Like, OH BOY, better. The-reward-at-the-end-of-a-long-commute better. Did-I-really-make-this better!?
I gave some to my brother, who raved and raved about how much he loved it and then e-mailed me this afternoon to say again it was amazing. And I knew, steadying my vehicle on the final hill, two stoplights before home, that it would be a warm, comforting, satisfying dinner on a night when I felt cold and wet and in need of something hearty.
(By the way, I did hear, in the course of that drive, that other parts of the country are or will soon be receiving similar weather, so, if you live, well, anywhere, there's a chance you'll want this chicken, too.)
Another thing you should know about this meal: it's very easy. I promise. You season the bird, stuff it with half a lemon, half a head of garlic, some herbs, and then you stick it in a roasting pan, surrounded by potatoes and carrots. (Note: Macheesmo used a 9 X 13 pan with good results, so that's another option.) Stick it in the oven for a while, and, for a rotisserie effect, you'll turn it every 20 minutes or so. The turning proved to be the only difficult part, but it's entirely optional.
Oh, and it goes fast. When I came home, all wanting to kiss the ground and collapse on the sofa, the roast turkey was on the counter, completely eaten. This is what was left, literally:
I'm just saying: You won't want to wait on this one.
Roasted Lemon Chicken with Potatoes and Carrots
Adapted from Macheesmo and Tyler Florence
1 (4 to 5 pound) free-range chicken
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 lemon, halved
1 head garlic, halved
1/4 bunch each fresh rosemary and parsley
1/4 cup olive oil
2-pound mix of red new potatoes, fingerling potatoes and baby carrots
Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
Rinse the chicken with cool water, inside and out, then pat it dry with paper towels. Season the cavity with salt and pepper, and then stuff the lemon half, garlic half (chop a garlic head right in half, easy as that) and herbs inside. Place the chicken, breast-side up, in a roasting pan. Toss the potatoes and carrots around the chicken.
Season the whole thing with a fair amount of salt and pepper and drizzle with olive oil. Roast the chicken and potatoes for 1 1/2 to 2 hours, or until the thermometer says 170 degrees F when inserted into the thickest part of the thighs. Every 15 to 20 minutes, turn the chicken 45 degrees, in order to create a rotisserie effect and make the skin nice and crispy. Toss the potatoes and carrots to ensure even cooking. You'll also want to baste periodically—with the pan juices, with squeezed lemon, with chunks of butter. I also used a tongs to rub the garlic, which had fallen out, over the outsides.
Once the meat is fully cooked, remove the chicken to a platter and let stand for 10 minutes, so the juices settle back into the meat before carving. Serve with the roasted potatoes on the side.

Thanks for the love Shannalee! I'm really glad you liked it
so glad you made it home safely!
first, i love tyler florence. second, i loooove chicken like this. moist and tender, wonderfully warm. and the fact that it's so easy to prepare makes it all the better!
be safe out there, stay warm!
yum! i loooooove coming home after a long commute to a hot, already-made meal. i had a similar experience a couple of days ago, involving bad weather (surprise), a running-late metra train, a crock-pot, and stew. more details in an upcoming post.
so impressed with your roast chicken! ya know, the test of a truly good chef is her roast chicken. i'd say you passed with flying colors.
that looks and sounds wonderful! i think i have a plan for dinner this week!
gooodness gracious, for every recipe i gotta go buy some new pan or thingamabob. grinn::
guess i just have a beginners kitchen
um….mmmmmmmmmm!! this sounds DELICIOUS!
Kim Shenberger
My chicken is rinsed patted dry, stuffed with S & P, garlic, onion, and rosemary and tied up with string–ready to pop in the oven this afternoon with potatoes, carrots and turnips. I can't wait! I'll let you know how we like it!
Kim Shenberger
No onion, that should be lemon. Blame it on being sick for 5 days and desperately needing a home cooked comfort meal.
Kim Shenberger
Well, this might be the most FRUSTRATING meal I've ever HAD!!!
The chicken and potatoes were gorgeous. I should have taken a picture! My husband and both my sons loved it. Compliments galore.
But I couldn't taste a single thing. I've been sick with a dreadful cold for 5 days and this is the first day I've felt like cooking. I knew I was in trouble when I couldn't smell it cooking. Tom came in the back door–"mmm, what's cooking!"
I will tell you that the chicken was moist and tender, the skin was crispy, and the peppery skin had a lovely spicy 'bite' to it. At least my tongue told me that it must be so.
Everyone encouraged me to make it again as soon as I could taste again.
I think I will!!
Oh, Kim, I'm SO sorry to hear you couldn't really taste anything! What a huge disappointment, especially after all the work of making it! Glad it looked good at least, and good your husband got to smell it, ha. Next time, I hope you will, too! Thanks for letting me know how it went!
Kim Shenberger
It was really awful because I KNEW just by looking at it that it was delicious.
I had some potatoes leftover and a fair amount of meat once I picked the bones. Tom said the broth in the roaster was fabulous, so I saved that along with the drippings from the platter. I think I'll make a roast chicken and potatoes hash with the leftovers. If I do, I'll take a picture and report back.
Sounds like a plan. And I agree with Tom – those pan juices are sooo good and lemony. Mmm.
Kim Shenberger
Made the chicken has today–yum! I'm going to link to this post and blog about it!
Kim, yay!!!

How do you get people to do what they said they would do?
People who are starting with GTD often ask how to handle delegation, especially when a "waiting for" from another person doesn't get delivered as agreed. Here's a question and answer with David Allen on this topic.
Question: I just finished the "Getting Things Done" book and I know the methods you have expressed will for sure help me! I was wondering if you can help answer one of my questions? For Actions, let's say you have to delegate work to someone. If that person doesn't do the work that they volunteer to, how do you act in a stress-free way which doesn't decrease your productivity and efficiency as a person?
David's answer: There's no "system" that can answer your question. "Stress-free" emerges when you know you've made the decisions that you need to about something, and parked the results into a trusted system that will feed reminders and information back to you at the appropriate time and context. So you have to decide if there's something that you need to do about the situation or not; and if so, what's your next action? Then park that next action in the right place that you'll deal with appropriately.
The main problem most people have with delegation is the lack of regular review, enough so that you will light a fire or check status early enough to be able to deal with the other person optimally. But you can't make anyone do anything. You just have to deal with your own agreements with yourself about the situation.

Madonna has been officially booked for the next Super Bowl Halftime Show (though reports of The Puppy Bowl hiring Meowdonna for their Kitty Halftime Show remain unconfirmed). So what songs should we expect to hear from the Kingess of Pop? Let's use our knowledge of past Super Bowl Halftime Shows to find out!
As we should all know by now, the 5 Main Characteristics Of Super Bowl Halftime Show songs are:
1) Recognizable
2) Big Groups Of Fans / Children / Ethnic Firefighters Or Whatever can dance to it
3) Not too obscene or suggestive (#BOOBGATE: NEVER FORGET)
4) Something the artist wants to promote, either a new song or a classic that our moms ask us to download for them the next day
5) Allows a guest star to join the artist onstage (This is the biggest guarantee of all)
With those five criteria in mind, here are the 8 Most Obvious Song Choices For Madonna's Super Bowl Halftime Show:
8. Like A Virgin
Ultra-upbeat and positive, and contains Madonna's most sing-along-able chorus, but this sexually suggestive choice might get nixed by the ever-uptight nextwork. "The Bridgestone Tire people have asked that their product not be associated with intact hymens…"
7. Ray Of Light
Also super-upbeat and perfectly nonsexual, plus it'll spread the setlist out so it's not all 80s and current-day songs (and there's no way she'll sneak Erotica on there), but it's also borderline too-fast to dance to, plus it doesn't have her catchiest chorus. They could just do the line "And I Feel!" repeated like 5 times and jump to the next song, like I do when I'm DJing childrens' parties?
6. Music
Allows for hordes of shirtless cowboy dancers to make an appearance ("YES!" – everyone watching the Super Bowl), plus it's recognizable from that first simple guitar-riff, but this song has also largely been forgotten about. Might be more economical to just throw cowboys on some other song, if that's legal.
5. Some Cover
The Black Eyed Peas ("Sweet Child O' Mine") and Prince ("We Will Rock You") each snuck covers into their sets, and I'd bet on Madonna doing the same; the most likely options include either pulling a younger artist onstage for a generational crossover ("Firework"?) or perhaps more likely, doing a classic "tribute" type song that even cynical home-viewers have to refrain from making fun of. I'm seeing Beyonce and/or Adele coming onstage for a duet on Aretha Franklin's "Think".
4. Vogue
Has a great buildup and might be ideal for an intro song (it could start before you see Madonna, and the stage is just like 6 mysterious dancers and a huge pile of Bridgestone tires), plus it's a song everyone knows and it passes the nonsexual test, but it's also 5 minutes long so they'll have to cut it down pretty mercilessly. "Strike a – VOGUE! Move to the music GENE KELLY!" [Freeze! Next song, parents watch bewilderingly]
3. Express Yourself
Catchy, likeable, and sexually benign. THE SAME WAY I LIKE MY WOMEN.
2. Give Me All Your Love
The future hit song features Nicki Minaj and M.I.A., so it's off the charts in the "New Song Promotion" and "Guest Stars" categories, plus Madonna has to work one new song into the set. I wouldn't be surprised if it also medleys into "4 Minutes" so Justin Timberlake can join too, especially if it coincides with, like, the Blu-Ray release of In Time.
1. Like A Prayer
The no-brainerest of them all — a shoe-in as the closing number, along with 9 trillion dancing kids whose outfits spell out some generally uplifting image like the word "HOPE" when viewed from above. This is being rehearsed as we speak. Then Madonna flashes her vagina at the last second, and Tom Petty performs the next 27 Super Bowls. YA HEARD IT HERE.
Other Madonna setlist predictions? Leave 'em in the comments.

Wind 101 – The Basics
Where does the wind blow and how fast will it blow tomorrow is a question that if answered with accuracy could make one inherently rich or give one the appearance of herrasay.
What makes the wind blow? There are two primary causes for the wind. The primary source of wind is caused by the unequal heating of the earth's surface by the sun. When one area is heated quicker than other areas, the air warms, expands, becomes lighter, and rises. This causes the cooler heavier air to rush in and take its place. This rush of cooler air is what we know as the wind.
There is no way to predict exact location of open air turbulence but wind rotor, a form of turbulence, can often be found around different formations in the landscape such as high trees, buildings, cliff edges, etc. Wind rotor can often cause a glider to be tossed in consecutive reversing directions. Until you are familiar with a flying site, you should be cautious of potential rotor makers. It is always a good idea to ask the locals about local rotor conditions.
Microburst is the sudden increase in downward air currents. They are primarily found near the edge of thunderstorms. The best way to avoid them is to not fly near the thunderstorm clouds. On the flipside of microburst is the cloud suck. Cloud suck is often located directly beneath a thundercloud and tends to lift the glider up into the cloud. If the rate of ascent is greater than the pilots ability to dive or spiral out, the pilot should turn towards the nearest edge of the cloud.
Thermals are a natural generator of vertical winds and the glider pilots primary resource for cross-country trips. They can often be found under cumulus clouds. They develop from the natural heating of the earth surface, which causes the heated air to rise.

Movie notes: 'Case 39,' 'Chain Letter' hide from critics
(Paramount Vantage) Renee Zellweger and Jodelle Ferland star in the supernatural thriller "Case 39." Regular readers of this blog — all five of you (Hi, mom!) — know there are a couple of things I find really annoying, movie-wise; 1. Movies not screened in advance for critics. 2. Movies that show up with little or […] [Read More]
Season two of 'Geniuses' off to a great start
"Geniuses of the American Musical Theatre," the performance/lecture series created and performed by Herb Keyser and jazz vocalist/pianist Bett Butler, got underway Monday evening at the Josephine Theatre. The format remains the same: Keyser spins tales from the lives of various composers and lyricists; Butler plays and sings some of their music, and Keyser chips […] [Read More]
'Iron Man 2'? Here's today's real DVD star
Forget "Iron Man 2″ or "Get Him to the Greek," the highest-profile titles among today's crop of new DVDs. A fancy superhero suit or a drunken rock star just can't measure up to a direct-to-video pseudo-documentary about the championships of a beanbag toss game. Yes, today marks the release of (drumroll) … "Cornhole: The Movie!" […] [Read More]
News: Scout Bar closed (at least temporarily)
Word from the front is Scout Bar has gotten crossways with the TABC over liquor taxes and has been shut down. These kinds of closings are not particularly unusual, and are often temporary, so stay tuned. Scout Bar has found homes for booked shows: The Tuesday 36 Crazyfists, Straight Line Stitch and Taking Dawn show […] [Read More]
Movie notes: 'Virginity Hit' a hall-of-fame bomb
With an unorthodox marketing campaign focusing on word of mouth and social media, the low-budget teen sex comedy "The Virginity Hit" hoped to duplicate the succes of last year's underground hit, "Paranormal Activity." Instead, the film wound up with a distinction it didn't want — one of the all-time box-office bombs. Opening on 700 screens […] [Read More]
First impression: 'Murder at the Howard Johnson's'
"Murder at the Howard Johnson's," the latest deftly staged comedy at the Cameo Theatre, follows three points in a love triangle (played by Mark Hicks, Anthony Cortino and Evie Armstrong) through a year of attempted homicides. It's a darkly funny farce handled well by the cast and director Greg Hinojosa. "Murder at the Howard Johnson's" […] [Read More]

Wicker-McCree among a handful of female leaders of athletic departments
It's not just a flesh-pressing session when N.C. Central athletics director Ingrid Wicker-McCree starts her handshaking tour at Eagles games.
Wicker-McCree makes those rounds routinely, stopping to listen to spectators.
In fact, Wicker-McCree proclaims that she's in the business of customer service, her body language saying that she's not the type who forgets where she came from while her doctorate in higher education administration from N.C. State indicates that she knows where she's going.
Wicker-McCree occupies a rare space in the world of sports as a female director of athletics. Her playground just so happens to be her own back yard.
"If I can retire (from) my career here at NCCU, that's fine with me," Wicker-McCree said.
Wicker-McCree, 46, became NCCU's athletics director in May 2008.
In June 2012, NCCU's board of trustees and former chancellor Charlie Nelms approved a three-year contract extension for Wicker-McCree, who signed it in May.
"I love it here," Wicker-McCree said, speaking with the sort of exuberance that she tapped as one of the driving forces behind NCCU's move to Division I athletics, which culminated in 2011 with the school rejoining the Mid-Eastern Athletic Conference.
NCCU was a founding member of the MEAC in the early 1970s before leaving in 1979 to join the Central Intercollegiate Athletic Association when the MEAC moved to Division I.
"I want to see us win a MEAC championship in every single sport," Wicker-McCree said, briefly entertaining the idea of doing what she does on a higher level at another school. "You think about other places and what it would be like, but I think that the NCCU athletics program could be like any of those other places.
"So if I have the chance to make those kinds of institutional changes, then why do I need to go anywhere? It helps that my roots are here. I love Durham."
Wicker-McCree played volleyball at Jordan High School, honing her talent on the next level at George Washington University in Washington, D.C., spending a season in the professional ranks in Puerto Rico.
In 1992, Wicker-McCree became N.C. A&T's first full-time volleyball coach. She took over as the Eagles' second head volleyball coach, then she started coaching the school's softball team before climbing the ranks in athletics administration at NCCU.
All of that experience has her focusing on customer service, desiring to give NCCU fans great game-day experiences, whether that's accessing tickets to actually getting in their seats at McDougald-McLendon Gymnasium or O'Kelly-Riddick Stadium.
Of course, winning goes a long way toward making game days great.
NCCU's football team is coming off of its first winning season since 2007, finishing 6-5, 5-3 MEAC in 2012.
Eagles basketball was 22-9, running through the MEAC with just one league loss during the regular season, falling to rival A&T in the conference tournament.
NCCU baseball coach Jim Koerner has turned a corner with his program, guiding the Eagles to a 27-29 season.
"I want us to be a choice athletics program," Wicker-McCree said, desiring that recruits would see NCCU as a first option as opposed to a backup plan.
Solid recruiting would help shore up NCCU athletics, but there's a price tag with that in the form of better facilities to attract student-athletes, Wicker-McCree said.
Eagles football coach Henry Frazier III has said that his program needs a fieldhouse, and NCCU athletes do not have a dedicated weightlifting facility, sharing equipment with students taking related classes.
This is the time of the year when the NCCU athletics department generates its financial windfall. Football is the school's cash cow, making Frazier's continued presence on the sideline a real coup, Wicker-McCree said.
Frazier was among six finalists to become the director of athletics at Prairie View A&M, where he used to coach. He didn't get the job, keeping him in position to stay on track with his five-year plan for NCCU to win a MEAC title, Wicker-McCree said.
"There's not a deadline," Wicker-McCree said of championships in football or any other sport. "Sooner than later — that's a deadline, if you can put a time limit on that. I think we're close. People still have to keep in mind that it just does not happen overnight, and overnight is not one or two years but three, sometimes."
Cuts in the state budget pose an added challenge to NCCU's monetary situation, which, generally speaking, is lacking more than other MEAC schools, Wicker-McCree said.
"We're kind of close to the bottom," Wicker-McCree said, comparing NCCU's finances with its peers. "There's a relationship between funds and winning. If you look at a Norfolk State, their budget is five or six million more dollars than ours."
NCCU's athletics department annually brings in about $354,000, Wicker-McCree said. In-kind donations boost income to around $600,000, but non-cash gifts don't pay for football helmets and baseball bats, she said. NCCU should be raising $1 million dollars a year, Wicker-McCree said.
Wicker-McCree praised Willie Jude, NCCU associate athletics director for development, and his team for their work toward building the school's brand, but she said there are so many more relationships to establish and cultivate.
New NCCU chancellor Debra Saunders-White has challenged the school's coaches to have their athletes ready to receive their diplomas in four years.
NCCU's four-year graduation rate among its student-athletes is roughly 50 percent but needs to improve to 75 percent, something Wicker-McCree said will require money to pay for summer school.
"Dr. Wicker-McCree is one the finest athletic directors in the MEAC and the NCAA," Saunders-White said. "Her experience at the start of her career as a championship-winning coach to now overseeing a significant athletics operation for a Division I institution is what makes her uniquely qualified to be a successful AD."
Wicker-McCree said Nelms, the former chancellor, showed her how to cast a vision for NCCU athletics. She is looking forward to working under the feminine style of leadership that Saunders-White has brought to the school's top post.
"I do believe women lead differently than men, in some respects," Wicker-McCree said.
Saunders-White has a business background that will benefit NCCU athletics since Division I sports is a business, Wicker-McCree said.
"Dr. Wicker-McCree and I have several things in common as it relates to females in leadership roles," Saunders-White said.

Me fears it is Carson's night to say goodbye. This show still remains a good place to go to get a break from reality.
It's great to share stories like this; people like Nancy and Jo Ann inspire us to help others.
Outlook Farm is awesome! A good sunny Sunday (or Saturday) ride with great pulled pork to savor before you enjoy an apple (or in season, their peachs, plums and nectarines are terrific). And, pick up some of their barbecue spice on the way out the door to create your own special ribs or chicken!
File under, OK, I'm old.....I grabbed a look thinking I was going to see Emma Peel and John Steed.
Now that I'm in the 21st century, still want to see this one on the big screen. Samuel L. Jackson rocks in my book (good guy or bad)!
Make that healthy! (I need an editor.)
Change, as they say, is always healthly; that's not to lessen any of what Theo has done personally or for the Red Sox as an organization.
Settle down Ray and Laura, you're starting to sound a little like Len and Carrie.
Walker45 and taxedtothemax, I'm with both of you. It's mindless entertainment and it fills the bill for fun, light escapism.
I fear, sadly, that Carson may be on the block tonight; I'm hoping not, though!
As I said on my Facebook page when I linked to this story, it might just make me cheer for the Yankees.....just not tonight!
A wonderful story. Thanks Ron.
Judge Len got it correct; a mess, indeed. Did Cher's tweet yesterday that she'd show up if Chaz made it through make a difference? Hmmmmm.
Great one; you'd be a wonderful headline writer! My personal favorite is "Stinky Sox."
Mr. Landon,
Thank you for continuing to believe in a future for hockey in Springfield; and thanks for taking on the blog. We're glad to have you online with us at The Republican and MassLive.com.
I'm with you; I was tearing up during the J.R. segment. And, I love Carson; been a fan since Queer Eye.
Although I never saw this show, save for the opener of one, had no desire as I thought it (and Pan Am in a way) was a weak attempt to attract some of the spill-over from Mad Men. Can't beat a winner.
I saw these things! Looked like there was enough to feed a (small) family! Might have been one of the more healthy of the options - but Big E calories don't count, right???
Great fund-raiser and great cause. Kudos Patrick for taking the plunge!
Good column Tim; thanks for sharing your perspective.
Come on folks; lighten up and enjoy this. It's great stuff. Nobody thought the Red Sox could make it through that ACLS series back in 2004 as I recall - stilll got your "Yankees Choke" T-shirts?
Lavarnway, Yale grad, philosophy major, playing major league baseball. Isn't life grand!
Memd - Good idea!
I'd be concerned about putting a living person on a stamp (especially since they're all "Forever" stamps these days) and then have them fall from grace, so to speak. Think Pete Rose and Barry Bonds, for example; might have been good ideas when they rose to the top and then bad examples when bad acts interfere with how they'll be remembered.
"60 Minutes" and Sunday nights just won't be the same without this man! He began delivering news to World War II soldiers with "Stars & Stripes" and soldiers on for several more generations of readers and viewers. A legend indeed!
My dear Yankee-loving brother now wants me to cheer for his team; that's not going to happen even with the mathematics of it all.
It's still a wonderful game no matter how we end up; the Sox summer was pretty remarkable even with a bad beginning and a not-so-good end.

DEEP Seeks Ideas To Help Protect Bats, Other Threatened Wildlife By Davis Dunavin • Jul 28, 2015 (AP Photo/Mike Groll, File) Listen Listening... / 1:15 Connecticut's Department of Energy and Environmental Protection (DEEP) released a new version of its ten-year plan for wildlife conservation last week. The plan describes the threats facing different plants, animals or habitats in the state, including White Nose Syndrome. New Haven Pairs Teens, Veterans To Curb Gang Activity By Davis Dunavin • Jul 28, 2015 VETTS / Integrated Wellness Group A program in New Haven, Connecticut is hiring U.S. military veterans as mentors to help steer teens away from gang-related activity. Last week it received a $30,000 grant from the state Department of Veteran's Affairs. Right now, the VETTS (Veterans Empowering Teens Through Support) program employs 12 veterans as mentors, both part-time and full-time. It's both part of a larger statewide social services non-profit, and a city-sponsored initiative. Bringing Fresh Produce Closer To Home By Katie Toth • Jul 28, 2015 Katie Toth Listen Listening... / 2:19 According to the U.S. Department of Agriculture, many neighborhoods in Bridgeport, Connecticut are more than half a mile from a major grocery store. One of those neighborhoods is home to the city's largest affordable housing complex, Trumbull Gardens. Book Review: Dinner With Jackson Pollock By Joan Baum • Jul 27, 2015 There's no word to cover what's out there about the man who's been called America's premier Abstract Expressionist, but there should be: "Pollockiana." There are Jackson Pollock biopics, documentaries, jazz albums of his favorite pieces, even dance workshops that would imitate his gestural movements with brushes and paint cans. And now, 60 years after his death, along comes something truly different: a surprising book, a collection of recipes, hitherto unpublished. NY Comptroller: LIPA Reforms Haven't Improved Service, Lowered Electricity Bills By Katie Toth • Jul 24, 2015 AP Photo/Mike Groll, File Listen Listening... / 1:43 After Superstorm Sandy hit in October 2012, more than 900,000 Long Island Power Authority customers had their power knocked out, and more than 100,000 LIPA customers went without power for more than three weeks. That led Governor Andrew Cuomo to blame the LIPA for mismanagement. Pages1 2 3 4 … next › last »

Ahmed Lachhab, Ph.D.
Assistant Professor of Earth and Environmental Sciences
As a hydrologist, I study groundwater to see its dynamics below the earth's surface. For example, when Target, Starbucks, Kohl's and other stores wanted to build a marketplace in the Selinsgrove area, the neighbors were concerned the water level in their wells would drop. Using groundwater modeling—taking measurements and making a model of the conditions—I studied the area. I predicted well levels would not drop, and they didn't.
Water is the future. Countries without water have to import it, and some countries fight wars over it. It is a natural resource that is filtered and clean. So we need to know where it comes from, how it moves and what we can do to keep it free of contamination. The work is important. More than 50 percent of Americans drink groundwater. At Susquehanna, we're surrounded by one large outdoor lab that is part of the watershed for the Chesapeake Bay. The work I do and the work my students do has an impact on the local area and all areas downstream.
I teach at Susquehanna because the size of a class matters. I have a maximum of 14 students in every course, so I can work closely with them in the classroom and in the field. The quality of teaching is better in an environment like this. I like to prepare my students—both for future employment and for graduate schools—by challenging them. I want them to learn through a variety of research tools so they are confident and prepared to perform more advanced work. Undergraduates pick up knowledge quite fast and can be very productive if you know how to work with them.
