Two highly-ranked teams were handily beaten on Saturday while USC, Utah and North Texas clinched conference titles and Oklahoma claimed a berth in the Big 12 championship.
Michigan State (5-5, 4-3) destroyed Wisconsin (9-1, 6-1) to hand the Badgers their first over-all loss and, more importantly, fall out of first place in the Big 10. Michigan (9-1, 7-0) moved into first with a 42-20 win over Northwestern.
Boston College went into Morgantown and upset West Virginia 36-17. Each team now has one conference loss but the win puts BC in the driver's seat for the Big East title. Syracuse, which entered the day with just one conference loss, was upset by Temple 34-24 for the Owls' first conference win of the season.
In the Big 12, Texas needed a fourth quarter rally to escape Kansas with a 27-23 win. The Longhorns scored the game-winning touchdown with just 11 seconds left after the Jayhawks had taken a 23-13 lead with 7 minutes to go in the game.
In a game that kicked off at 9am on the west coast so it could be televised by ESPN, Boise State was stretched to double-overtime before the Broncos subdued feisty San Jose State 56-49. Boise State has now won 20 consecutive games and 24 straight WAC games to go with their 24 straight home wins.
Miami earned the minor upset at Virginia, 31-21. The 'Canes win gives Virginia Tech at least temporary control of the ACC. The Hokies are 4-1 in league play, followed by Florida State at 6-2 and then Miami and Virginia at 4-2.
New Mexico earned a 21-14 upset win at BYU that dropped the Cougars to 4-2 in the Mountain West and let Utah clinch the conference title with its 45-28 win at Wyoming Saturday night. The Utes (10-0, 6-0) were up 45-14 before the Cowboys scored two touchdowns in the game's final minute.
Among Independents, Pittsburgh shocked Notre Dame 41-38 in South Bend on a 32-yard field goal with one second remaining.
In other action Saturday, Oklahoma's 30-3 win over Nebraska left the 'Huskers at 5-5 over-all, 3-4 in the conference, and in danger of being eliminated from bowl consideration for the first time since 1968. It also put idle Iowa State (5-4, 3-3) in sole possession of first place of the Big 12 north division.
The Cyclones are a half-game ahead of Nebraska and Colorado (6-4, 3-4) who became bowl eligible with a 38-31 win over Kansas State. The loss eliminated the Wildcats from postseason consideration for the first time since 1992.
Oklahoma clinched the south division's entry to the Big 12 championship game as they can do no worse than tie Texas in the final standings. The Sooners own the tie-breaker with the Longhorns for their 12-0 victory in Dallas earlier this season.
Nebraska hosts Colorado in the final game for both schools on November 26. Iowa State plays at Kansas State next week and ends the season at home against Missouri on November 27.
California only led PAC-10 cellar-dwellar Washington 7-6 at halftime and 14-12 at one point in the third quarter. But the Bears scored 28 unanswered points to pull away to a 42-12 final.
USC led Arizona 14-3 at halftime before running away with a 49-9 victory that clinched the PAC-10 title. The Trojans lead Cal by one game with one remaining, and by virtue of their 23-17 victory over the Golden Bears last month, have the title sewn up.
Texas A&M went to overtime to defeat rival Texas Tech 32-25 and halt a three-game losing streak to the Red Raiders. It was the third overtime game for the Aggies in their last four outings.
Iowa dodged the bullet from Minnesota when the Golden Gophers missed a 51-yard field goal attempt in the final minute to give the Hawkeyes a 29-27 win. It was Minnesota's last regular season game as they finish 6-5 over-all and 3-5 in the Big 10 after winning their first five games.
Purdue upended Ohio State 24-17 and the Boilermakers and Buckeyes are each just 3-4 now in league play.
Akron stayed alive for the east division title of the MAC with a 31-19 win at Ohio. Marshall was eliminated from conference title contention with a 56-35 loss at Bowling Green. The Zips and Miami (Ohio) each have just one loss in the conference and face each other in Akron next Saturday with the winner taking the east division crown. Miami was a 42-21 winner at Western Michigan Saturday.
Meanwhile, BGSU's win over the Herd keeps the Falcons in the hunt for the west division title where they are one of three teams with one conference loss. Toledo and Northern Illinois both won games earlier in the week. Bowling Green visits Toledo next week.
Auburn had no trouble dumping Georgia 24-6 in one of the SEC's top annual rivalries. The Tigers had already clinched the west division. The loss doesn't eliminate the Bulldogs from east title contention but Georgia needs Tennessee to lose both of its remaining games against Kentucky and Vanderbilt.
Florida became bowl eligible with a 48-14 rout of South Carolina. Both teams are 6-4 over-all and 4-4 in the SEC.
North Texas wrapped up its fourth straight Sun Belt title with a 51-29 victory over Idaho. The Mean Green (6-4, 6-0) have won the conference every year since its inception in 2001. Since losing their inaugural conference game to Louisiana-Monroe on Oct. 6, 2001, North Texas has reeled off 24 consecutive conference wins.
In the strangest finish of the day, UTEP surrendered two safeties to Rice late in the fourth quarter that allowed the Owls to turn a 21-17 deficit into a 21-21 tie and force overtime. The Miners eventually won 35-28 in the second extra period.
Earlier this week: Memphis snapped a two-game losing streak with a 30-26 win over Southern Miss in Liberty Bowl Stadium on Friday night. The Golden Eagles were dealt a second consecutive loss and dropped to 5-3 over-all, 4-2 in CUSA.
The win made Memphis (6-3, 3-3) bowl eligible and the Tigers could be headed to a postseason affair in consecutive years for the first time in their history.
On Wednesday night, Louisville remained perfect in CUSA play with a 55-28 blistering of TCU. It was 55-14 before the Horned Frogs tacked on a couple of late TD's.
The Cardinals improved to 7-1, 5-0 with the easy victory over the outmanned Horned Frogs who fell to 4-5, 2-4. Three teams trail Louisville with two conference losses - Southern Miss, Cincinnati and UAB.
Louisville has three CUSA games remaining with road trips to Houston and Tulane sandwiched around a home date with a hot Cincinnati squad that is idle this week and on a three-game winning streak.
Also on Friday, Fresno State became bowl eligible with a 70-14 romp over Hawaii that thrilled the Red Wave attending the game in the San Joaquin Valley. The Bulldogs improved to 6-3, 3-3 in the WAC while the Warriors fell to 4-5, 4-4 and in danger of missing the postseason.
Hawaii has been outscored 136-17 in its last two visits to the mainland, losing 69-3 at Boise State two weeks ago. They didn't fare much better in their previous road trips. On the whole, Hawaii has lost its four road games by an aggregate score of 228-66 for an average loss of 57-16.
Fresno State is on the opposite track from Hawaii. The Bulldogs are on a three-game winning streak in which they have outscored Rice, SMU and Hawaii by a total of 164-28 for an average score of 54-9.
Thursday night, Florida State gave Bobby Bowden his 350th career coaching victory when the Seminoles recovered from a poor first half to top North Carolina State 17-10 . The win came against his former assistant head coach, Chuck Amato, whose Wolfpack (4-6, 3-5) were eliminated from bowl consideration with the loss after leading 10-0 at halftime. Florida State improved to 8-2 over-all and 6-2 in the ACC.
In another Thursday game, Arkansas State beat Utah State 16-7 in a Sun Belt game that had no bearing on that conference's title chase or bowl picture.
Toledo used a 24-point run to blow past Northern Illinois 31-17 on Tuesday night and kick-off the five-day week of college football.
First-Time Conference Winners: Five teams bagged their first conference victory of the year.
Penn State got its first Big 10 win of the season with a goal-line stand in the closing minutes to beat Indiana 22-18.
Duke picked up its first ACC win of the season with a 16-13 upset of Clemson in Durham.
San Diego State won a Mountain West Conference game for the first time this year when the Aztecs beat Air Force 37-31.
Kentucky grabbed its first SEC win, a 14-13 triumph over Vanderbilt.
Temple's 34-24 victory over Syracuse was the Owls' first Big East conference win this season.
Computer Streak: The computer picks on this site have a streak of their own involving Boise State. It has correctly picked the winner of 37 consecutive regular season Bronco games dating to November 10, 2001. It is 18-18 ATS on those games.
Computer Nails The Upsets Again: The computer's weekly picks based on the Congrove Computer Rankings picked three outright upsets against the Vegas spreads. It is 41-23 ATS for the season with its upset picks.
This week, it nailed the "upsets" of San Diego State over Air Force, Buffalo over Central Michigan and Kentucky over Vanderbilt.
No Blemishes: Auburn, Boise State, Oklahoma, USC, Utah and Wisconsin began the week with perfect records and only Wisconsin failed to make it out unscathed.
Streaking: Boise State has won 20 straight games over-all, 24 straight at home, and 24 straight over WAC foes. The Broncos were taken to double-overtime by San Jose State before they prevailed 56-49.
USC extended the nation's second-longest winning streak to 19 with a 49-9 home win over Arizona. The Trojans have won 20 straight home games and 14 consecutive PAC-10 games.
Utah has won 14 straight games. The Utes beat Wyoming 45-28.
Auburn has 12 consecutive wins. The Tigers drubbed Georgia 24-6.
Iowa has won 17 straight home games.
North Texas has won 24 straight over Sun Belt conference foes. The Mean Green beat Idaho 51-29.
Central Florida ran the nation's longest losing streak to 14 games with a 21-17 loss at Ball State.
Temple's 34-24 win over Syracuse ended the Owls 12-game losing streak to Big East teams.

Going Rogue: An American Turd
To the three or so people out there who did not dress as Sarah Palin for Halloween last year: Fear not. This year you can go as Sarah Palin, bestselling author! That's right, the former governor of Alaska and perpetual wackjob has a book out on November 17 entitled Going Rogue: An American Life. It will undoubtedly be available at a corporately-owned and homogenized chain bookstore near you in time for the holidays. What a maverick!
Yeah. She's not the world's best sense maker, so she's going to need some help in that department.In addition, Palin plans to focus the book on the "grueling interviews" and frustrations she experienced as a Vice Presidential candidate. She claims she was treated unfairly by the liberal media (where does Bitch fit in to that equation? Do you think she thinks we're too liberal?) and now is her chance to tell 1.5 million people about it. This will probably involve a lot of confusing colloquialisms and weird finger pointing. Translators will perhaps be necessary, so book your folksy Alaskan now to avoid the rush.Of course, this description of Palin's "American Life" will no doubt include many details about her personal politics and family life. Pregnancy, snowmobiles, and hunting will abound (maybe even at the same time). Hopefully there will be some shirtless photos of Levi Johnston in the mix at least, right? Or maybe Palin will address Johnston's statement that she let he and Bristol sleep in the same bed together while they were dating. You know, before they had a baby (but probably while they were making one). And speaking of Johnston, it might be a tad unrelated but we would be remiss if we did not include this gem of a Johnston video clip:
If you don't have a subscription to award-winning 80-page quarterly Bitch magazine, it's definitely time to start one.

More Rogue Maverick Droppings? Where's The Pooper-Scooper?
I have had penchants for humiliation and am one of the three or so people who have not dressed up as Sarah Palin on Halloween. Even though I went out in full drag on many Halloweens in the past, I think donning a stars and stripes bikini and hunting rifle (she posed by a pool for a photograph in that outfit) would be too bizarre even for me. Fortunately there are people like Tina Fey and Sara Benincasa who can lampoon Sarah Palin with the seemingly endless supply of material that results from her insatiable quest. Yes, Sarah Palin is trying to run for a position of national power (shudder). No, I will not (choke, puke) be reading the sickening tripe being marketed (passed off) as a partly Sarah Palin authored "book". Yuck. It's hard to type this after watching that jaw droppingly ludicrous Kathy Griffin - Levi Johnston appearance. It would all be incredibly hysterical if Palin weren't so narrow-minded, mean, lacking in conscience, and almost psychotically dangerous.
Let's not spread misinformation!
The photo you mentioned above was a photoshop hoax.
I was totes Sarah Palin for Halloween last year Kelsey! Gawd, you know your readers so well.
On a related note, I'm a little terrified of Going Rogue.
Take note: Opinions expressed are those of their respective authors, not necessarily those of Bitch. Dig?

What Truly Scary Dark Comedy During The Halloween Season
What a horror show right before Halloween. I was just doing a little reading on the subject of Sarah Palin's "Going Rogue" over at the Huffington Post. On a positive note, there is more humor to be found in it. Had you seen "Sarah Palin's Top Ten Tips For Writing A Book" on the David Letterman Show? The video is posted at
http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2009/09/30/sarah-palins-top-ten-tips_n_304... On another positive note, The Huffington Post ran a short article today about Palin's lectures not selling. Apparently big lecture buyers think she is a "blithering idiot". Unfortunately the well-oiled Reptilian machine has bulk-bought copies of the printed Palin "Going Rogue" manurefest and and the right-wing-nut media clones may try to hold the refried turds under our collective nose (ugh). Will we be spared some of the Palin propaganda by Michele Bachmann is horning in on right-wing crazy-fest media coverage? She got her own "Big News" page over at the Huffington Post. Is Sarah Palin get out-crazied? I got some laughs checking out http://www.huffingtonpost.com/news/michele-bachmann but it's sobering to realize that Michele Bachmann actually proposes and votes on legislation.
Just wanted to say...
I totally love Bitch, but in the last two posts there've been some instances where Christians were (seemingly) criticized solely on the basis of their faith. True, there are a great many people who claim to be Christians (or who are) who are conservative, close-minded, and sometimes just plain ignorant. But could we insult/criticize them for *those* things, rather than blaming it on their faith? You could call me a Christian (though the word is so twisted now) in that I try to follow Jesus and the Bible; but I'm a liberal, open-minded feminist who believes that what both of the aforementioned teach are love for everyone at chief importance, and the people who misuse those teachings are doing just that- misusing. Just because someone is "God-fearing" doesn't automatically mean they're ignorant assholes, and just because some Christians are fighting for sheltering the hell out of kids in schools with "don't have evil, dirty sex, period" others are awesome people who are quite reasonable, and fighting for the same things the rest of us are. Thanks.
You make a good point
Thank you for responding. While I meant to highlight Palin and her writer's conservative fundamentalist religious beliefs, I don't think I made that clear enough. You are absolutely right; there are lots of Christian feminists out there who are fighting the good fight, and the fact that a faction of crazy people out there are calling themselves by the same name doesn't mean that one equals the other.
It's such a shame that the term "Christian" has taken on a conservative connotation, because as you point out, the real foundation of the belief system is one of love and equality. Sigh.
Thanks again for reminding us of that!

Ask me about our Comments Policy!
Womp Womp...
Well there really is only one comment I have about this...this monstrosity of a "book" and that is, that I'm not so concerned about the "book" itself but rather how much it will sell.
and oh yes there will be book sales.
A madwoman can only talk, the true madness lies with those that take whatever lunacy she is spewing then goes and applies it.
So, Im not really concerned about the "book" itself, but rather when it becomes a best seller and gets put on the Opera book list or whatever...because lets face it ladies chances are its going to happen. Womp Womp.
you people are evil!
you people are evil!
My AP English teacher read
My AP English teacher read this out of curiosity. One day she was reading while we were working and started laughing uncontrollable... Palin had actually used "mavericky" in a sentence.

We're rather disappointed with this cover photo of Scarlett Johansson for the May issue of Canadian mag Flare. Don't get us wrong; you can't make ScarJo look bad. But you can make her look just "pretty," and that's a crime. This photograph for us is just beige. Nothing pops and everything blends into the background. We like our Scarlett with a bit of va-va-voom. A brighter lip or nails, perhaps? Because sadly, previews of her interview with the magazine sound just as bland. For instance, she talks about red carpet dressing, stating, "I think it's nice on the red carpet to wear things that are colourful just because I think there are more options. You can take more of a risk I suppose with colour on the red carpet." Nothing particularly groundbreaking right?
She also discussed what she plans to wear while promoting her upcoming film The Avengers, revealing, "I'm the only girl in the film, so I'm obviously going to be more aware that I'm surrounded by a bunch of suits. Everybody is going to be wearing black and grey and it will be nice to add femininity and some female sex appeal to the lineup. I think I'll steer clear of the tuxedo." Oh, good. She's going to bust out the big guns! That's more like it. But seriously, fashion editors. Do justice to women like this in the future. It's not that hard! With different makeup and styling — and less Photoshop! — that dress would have been ace.

This is a global Ironman 70.3 policy for the safety of all participants and to ensure everyone has the opportunity to enjoy their finish line experience. IRONMAN 70.3 is also a competitive environment and we need to ensure the safety of all competitors in the finish chute accordingly. This policy will allow every athlete time to celebrate their accomplishment without impacting on other finishers. Friends and family will also not be able to access the finish-line area and/or the recovery marquee. You can be re-united once you exit the recovery area. Please pass this message onto your supporters so they are aware of the ruling and do not endanger your result. We appreciate your support and advise that competitors who choose not to respect this policy will receive an automatic disqualification.
3. What happens to me after I finish?
Once you cross the finish line and join the IRONMAN 70.3 family, you will be awarded your finisher's medals and our volunteers will escort you into the medical/recovery tent. You will then be assessed by our medical team. There are 3 things that can happen to you at this point:
1. You are released to go through to the massage/food area.
2. You are placed in observation while we can monitor you as you recover and then released to the massage/food area.
3. You are taken into the medical area and into the care of our exceptional medical team. It is important that you communicate to your friends and family that this process can take time. It is up to you how long you remain in the recovery tent, some athletes can stay up to an hour or longer at times, so let your friends and family know what your plans are so they do not worry!

8 SureFire Ways to Relieve Stress
|July 19, 2012
|Posted by stella under Fitness, Health, How to, Life, Tips
Stress is a drag. It deteriorates bodies and fatigues our minds. And not to mention, it causes us to grow old faster. Stress is bad!
This article will discuss various ways on how to relieve stress.
Back in the days (the really, really old days), stress was good. Yes, you read that right, stress was good for our body. When we experience stress, our bodies release chemicals into our blood that causes us to have more energy and strength. That's our human defense mechanism to physical danger.
Thus in the olden days, when our cavemen forefathers where being chased by lions or our medieval knight ancestors were being attacked by barbarian hordes, stress increased their strength, agility and stamina for their fight or flight response.
But that was then, when physical danger was real. Now, in the modern era, stress is mostly caused from an emotional level. In which, there are no outlets for the extra strength and energy– they get pent up.
When we are physically threatened and have an extra boost of energy from stress, we run or we fight. Whichever fate we choose, we expend that extra energy. But that is solely from physical factors.
When an emotional factor causes us stress, we don't fight or flight— we do nothing. Like when your boss yells at you, he causes extreme stress– but what do you do? Nothing. You lower your head and go back to your cubicle. And all these extra energy that your body just released, get pent up.
You eventually explode. Like a balloon getting overfilled with air, your body does the same thing. It can only hold so much pent up energy.
This is how stress affects us in a negative way. This is how stress got a bad rap in the modern era. Stress is good from physical factors, but bad from emotional or mental factors.
The good news is, you happen to read this awesome article! Here are eight great ways to recover from stress.
1. Exercise
Exercise is the best way to release yourself from all those pent up energy. You have so much energy trapped inside your body, therefore, release it.
2. Park yourself
Understandably, years upon years of stress took a toll to your body; your body is not up for most physical activities anymore. Therefore, walk or hang out somewhere.
Go to a nice park. Take a stroll for a bit and immerse yourself in the beauty of Mother Nature. Seeing other people relaxing and having fun will get you in a relaxing mood too.
3. Tune out
Compile your favorite tunes, lie down on the couch, close your eyes and relax. This doesn't take much time too. 15 minutes a day is all you need. This is the modern form of meditation.
4. Bury yourself in a fun book
Zone out in a park, couch, beach or coffee house, and then immerse yourself in a good book. There is nothing more relaxing than completely zoning out in your imaginary book world.
5. Catch up
Connect to an old friend, family or colleague. Catch up. See what's going on. Give a call, or in this great era of social networking, chat it up!
Sharing what's going on with your life lately (or hearing someone else's life) is a great form of escape. It will make you forget about your stresses and it always feels good to catch up with people we haven't talked to in a while.
6. Treat yourself
Get a massage to target those pressure points to relieve pent up energy. Or get an ergonomic pillow, or get a backrub from your spouse. A massaging foot bath works too. But remember, don't overspend, it doesn't have to be expensive.
Get pedicure if you're girl, watch sports or play pool if you're a guy.
7. Soak up
A good bubble bath surrounded by loads of aroma therapy from scented candles is heaven on Earth. But a day in the pool or beach with your family is super fun too!
8. Family Dinner
Research shows that family bonding over the dinner table is a very effective way to release stress. Family members talking to each other about their day over a healthy dinner, releases pent up energy and reinforce an already strong bond within the family.
Remember, other "negative" stress relievers such as binge eating, smoking and drinking are depressants. They temporarily relieve stress, but cause long-term depression.

15 overweight. 7 obese. 14 starving.
If you were to summarise the world into 100 people, how would the population turn out?
20 of the 100 in the world would be illiterate and an astonishing 14 of these would be women, the same number as the total people starving. 16 people would be living in poverty, only one more than the amount of overweight people. The infographic below even makes the urban-rural tipping point seem all the more real with 47 living urban and 53 occupying the countryside.
Which of the figures below surprise you the most?

(ABC 6 NEWS) -- The historic spring storm that hit last week brought record-breaking snowfall totals, and it also brought a lot of damage.
Cleanup has officially begun at Oakwood Cemetery in Rochester. More than 100 trees were damaged in Thursday's snowstorm, creating a mess and adding to an already busy spring.
"This is a lot of work for us that we really didn't need. I would guess this is gonna take at least two weeks to get the trees cleaned up and get everything chipped," said Kyle Lee, the cemetery's superintendent.
There are trees down all around the cemetery, but fortunately there was no serious damage done to any of the memorials there.
"We'll get a lot of traffic in here over the next couple weeks with families coming in. It is disheartening for families to come in and see this, the way it is," said Lee.
Cleanup isn't just happening at the cemetery. Over at Hathaway Tree Service, things were busy all day on Monday.
"We've got a really large amount of pines and cedars coming in," said owner Richard Cordie.
It's not expected to end any time soon.
"It's really really picked up. Its Monday and snow's gone, beautiful weather. Everybody seems to be hauling in their debris. By this weekend its going to be extremely busy," said Cordie.
Eventually though, things will be cleaned up and everything will go back to normal. However, the enormity of the spring snowstorm will not soon be forgotten.
"We have not had any damage like this in the winter months from a snow storm, since I've been here. We have had some summer damage, tree damage and that type. But nothing to this extreme since I've been here," said Lee.
There are only a few people on staff at the cemetery. With more than 50 acres of burials, they are in need of volunteers who could help. If you're interested, call the cemetery office at 507-202-1608.

Hang tight!
Recipe by Janet Allen
"These cookies are a delicious and hearty alternative to doughnuts or pastries. Also great to pack in lunches and on trips. Try one with your morning coffee or tea. For a slightly richer treat, use buttermilk in place of the water. Substitute dates for the raisins, if you prefer."
Hmm. None of these ingredients are on sale today.

1/2 cup
butter, softened
1 cup
peanut butter
1 1/3 cups
packed brown sugar
2 teaspoons
vanilla extract
1/3 cup
1 cup
all-purpose flour
1 cup

2 cups
quick cooking oats
1/2 cup
wheat germ
1 teaspoon
1 teaspoon
ground cinnamon
2 teaspoons
baking soda
1 cup
Love this recipe! I'm sure it was a great recipe as is, but to bump of the "health factor" a bit I made some substitutions that worked well. I know that drives some people crazy to change a recipe all around, but if it helps to tweak it, WHY NOT!? This way there's a healthier version to play with. Instead of all the butter I only used 1/4 cup of butter and added applesauce. Then I only used 1 cup of brown sugar. When I mixed in all the PB etc. I added one big banana too. I put in 1 and 1/2 cups of raisins because we like them and heated up 1/2 cup apple juice to let the raisins soak in and then I used that "raisin water" in place of the water called for in the recipe. I also added 1/3 cup of ground flax to give it some more good stuff. We eat them in the afternoon for a healthy snack or when we're running out the door on a busy morning.
Unfortunately, these did not go over well in my house. They were dry, and I even added the banana like some suggested. Using a measured scoop, mine only made about 20, so maybe they had to bake longer since they were bigger, therefore drying out.

I love these cookies, they're not very sweet and they're good for breakfast or snack. Don't let the calorie section scare you, I made 27 cookies from one recipe and I used my ice cream scoop and when I measured how much dough the scoop holds it's 1/4 cup (that would make one serving 2 cookies plus like a bite of another cookie, one fills me up just fine). BUT I make mine healthier and it's moist and holds together well and has to be less calories. Here's what I did...no butter, add 1 c applesauce (unsweetened), used 1/2 c honey and 1/2 c brown sugar (in place of all the brown sugar), I also used all whole wheat flour and craisins (instead of raisins) - it's sooo good. If you like a heartier cookie I'd use rolled oats, quick oats make a softer cookie - both are yummy. If you like crunch in your cookies I think sunflower seeds would be great in them. They also freeze well, plus I've made them with soy butter for an allergic child, it's a little drier but still good.
LOVE IT!! I'm a full-time mom and full-time student, so meals aren't really a priority in my life. These are so quick and easy to make, package in servings, throw in the freezer, and pull out in the morning. Toss some in my backpack and I'm set for the day. I shortened the baking time to 15 min. so they'd be a bit chewier, and substituted choc. chips for the raisins to get my son to eat them. I love getting to be a cool mom and letting him eat cookies for breakfast. Thanks!!
I have been searching for just the right "healthy" cookie recipe for a long time. Usually I make "Ranger cookies" that have lots of good-for-you fillers but tend to be dry and crumble easily. This recipe just became my favorite! I like to bake things with nutritional value but ... really what makes a cookie a cookie is fat and sugar. A "health" cookie made with no fat, honey to sweeten and no eggs honestly isn't very satisfying. This cookie gives me a real "cookie fix" yet is versatile enough to be quite nutritional.
I used natural peanut butter, substituted 4 egg whites for the 2 eggs (best to buy carton of pure egg whites), added 1/4 cup skim milk powder with the water, used all whole wheat flour (2 cups), and stirred in 1 c raisins, 1/2 cup mini choc chips, 1/2 cup chopped dates, 1 cup chopped walnuts. The dough is chunky so it helps to flatten it a little (to 1" thick or so). Also, I found they only needed about 15 min or less to bake -- they turned out slightly browned with firm tops but inside they were surprisingly "light"and soft. I used a wire wisk to beat the butter mixture and to add the whites and water. This may have helped. I also would try adding dried cranberries, and other nuts & seeds.
I must say, I liked the results of this recipe so much that I have singlehandedly polished off 1/2 of the cookies in less than a week!
May have to change the name to:
"Hearty Breakfast, Lunch and Dinner Cookies"
I have never felt compelled to rate one of these recipes before, but these cookies are the best thing I've found here! I replaced the cinnamon and raisins with chocolate chips and upped the percentage of whole wheat flour to white flour and used buttermilk powder with good results. They freeze fabulously. And...I've gotten several requests for the recipe - one from a mom whose kids don't even believe in anything remotely resembling healthy food! Thanks for a great recipe!
Excellent breakfast cookies that tasted great and were easy to make. I kept the batter in the fridge and baked them as I needed them... warm cookies in the morning, mmmmmm.
What a great recipe. I'm a grad student, so I don't have a lot of time to cook elaborate meals, and I'm a vegetarian so I have to pay attention to protein. This recipe is perfect: easy, yummy, protein-rich, and it produces really filling cookies. I subsituted 1/4 cup of applesauce for half of the butter (to cut down on the fat a little and add some more nutrients), and I also substituted 1/2 cup chocolate chips for half of the raisins and I threw in about 1/3 cup chopped walnuts. It's like trail mix in a cookie. If these freeze well, I can see myself making this every two weeks or so and not having to worry about breakfast/lunch all semester. Thanks so much for sharing this.
Update: I just have to add, these stayed soft and tasted fresh for over two weeks, without chilling or freezing. I am so utterly impressed with this recipe.

Kate Nash & Her Influences
by Dan Weiss | July 18, 2013
One of the most pleasant and unexpected developments in alt rock right now is singer-songwriter Kate Nash's evolution from confessional pop songs pounded out on blocky piano to scratched-out punk songs that recall the reign of riot grrrl at its best. This year's criminally underrated Girl Talk is her best album ever, combining her early sweet-and-sour hooks with fury on surfy howlers such as "Fri-end" and "Sister" that recall Kathleen Hanna's fast, fun work with Le Tigre and early Sleater-Kinney (before their '70s guitar-goddess dreams really took shape). There's also a huge, spitting dose of Courtney Love's disarmingly direct, acrid sarcasm. Hearing a trained pianist "regress" into punk simplicity is as liberating for Nash's audience as it must be for her.

Water en land
Bacteria are so small that they can only be seen with a powerful microscope. However, they have a tremendous influence on all other organsims. The easiest way to recognize the various species is by the way they react to chemicals. The sea is full of bacteria, millions per liter seawater. Scientists estimate 5 to 10 million different species of bacteria living in the sea. Without bacteria, salt-tolerant plants would not be able to grow.
On Texel
Water found in ditches in the woods and puddles on marshes sometimes have a thin layer floating on the surface that looks like oil. Most people are so accustomed to seeing dirty water that they assume this film is a sign of pollution. However if you stick your finger in it, the film breaks apart into small specks whereas a film of oil remains more or less an entity. This film is an iron bacteria and totally natural. Water on Texel contains a high amount of iron. So it's not strange to find this bacterium here. In the picture above, you see footprints from a bird in the iron bacteria.
- Makes some sick, helps others to prosper
Some bacteria species cause illnesses. Several examples are fire blight in hawthorns, Lyme disease transferred to people by ticks and contamination of oysters and mussels with Campylobacter. Without bacteria, viruses cannot exist. Viruses make up an important group of pathogens.
Rhizobacteria are species that grow in the vicinity of plant roots. There are even salt-tolerant rhizobacteria species that promote plant growth, first discovered among glasswort roots. Scientists in India were able to isolate the rhizobacteria and found that they even advance growth when the salt concentrations are high. This is good news for farmers whose land is plagued by salty seepage.
- Important cleaners
Bacteria form the 'garbage collectors' everywhere in nature. They are major decomposers of dead plants and animals so that the elements can be used again in the food cycle. Without this recycling service, life on earth would be impossible. You even find bacteria in the oxygen-depleted bottoms on tidal flats, where they use sulphuric compounds in the mud to produce the necessary energy to grow.
In addition to 'collecting the garbage', bacteria also clean up waste. They are essential in purifying wastewater. They grow on the organic material and nitrogen and phosphate compounds, forming flakes which sink to the bottom. This mud is easy to remove from the water. On Texel, the mud is dried and sold for various industrial processes, such as cement-making. There is also an extra water purification stage on Texel, the helophyte filter. Again, bacteria play an important role by removing even more organic material out of the water, resulting in practically drinkable water.
- Bacteria as oil consumer
Bacteria don't just degrade dead plants and animals. They also help to degrade oil. During the oil disaster in the Gulf of Mexico in April 2010, bacteria performed excellent work within a short period of time. It took months to plug the leak. However once that succeeded, the bacteria consumed the oil much faster than ever expected: within three weeks. The scientists who performed the studies don't totally understand how an organism which usually needs nitrogen and phosphorus to grow and make new cells is able to work so quickly in a material where these elements were practically lacking. Nor is this reason to think that oil spills are not dangerous for nature. The water may have been cleansed of the muck, however many animals had been killed beforehand. In addition, the greenhouse gas CO2 is produced by the bacteria in the process of degradation.

Step 1: Prep and cook the bacon, also facon
This is one case where better quality bacon may be ideal... I purchased the sale stuff and it was sub-optimal.
Large Frying pan and oven baking tray are good methods for real bacon.
The Microwave method was used for cooking the Facon. Resist the urge to dip facon in bacon grease. It does little good.
Cut up the bacon/ facon into pieces a couple inches long, and set aside.
Step 2: Prepare and Fill Double Boiler
Put a smaller pan inside a larger pan of water, if your pans have handles, place a suitable spoon, shot glass, or other riser in the water under the smaller pan to help keep the contraption level.
Break up your chocolate and put some in the smaller pan, and turn the heat on to medium (avoid rolling boils, as it will spit water into your chocolate)
(NB: at this point we used Hershey's baking bar... which was described as "slightly sweet" -- we used the Ghiradelli to dip the Spam into later)
Step 3: Add/Prepare additional ingredients
Place finely chopped nuts (both walnuts and pecans were used), on a foil-lined tray to be toasted -- we used the toaster oven for this.
When slightly bittersweet chocolate is almost melted, add some maple syrup and some brown sugar.
Stir until homogeneous.
because think ,bacon+chocolate+nuts=LOTS OF FAT also
LOTS of bacon+LOTS of chocolate+LOTS of nuts=an extra 50 pounds
probably tastes good though
"Dear lord, as I think of you dressed in white with your splendid beard, I am reminded of Colonel Sanders, who is now seated at your right hand, shoveling popcorn chicken into thy mouth. Lord, could you come up with a delicious news taste treat like he did? I command you."
You can probably do a smaller quantity by simply cutting the scrapple/pudding into "chip sized pieces" and then melting some good chocolate (maybe even a 70+%cacao?) in a double boiler/microwave and spooning it over each piece and then freezing... all the bang, not so much production value. :-)

Bulldozer Ends Up in River, Driver Accused of DWI " />
Updated: 08/06/2014 3:50 PM
Created: 08/06/2014 3:46 PM KAALtv.com
WINONA, Minn. (AP) - Winona County authorities say a Rochester man accused of backing a bulldozer into the Mississippi River has been arrested on a tentative charge of driving while intoxicated.
Chief Deputy Ron Ganrude says a 54 year old man has seven previous convictions for drunken driving.
Ganrude says the man was moving sand on Dakota Island, across from the city of Dakota, when the bulldozer became stuck in the river about 1:30 a.m. Ganrude says the man acknowledged operating the machine for a construction company working on a bridge-construction project.
Authorities say the man used a boat to get back to the mainland. A crane had to be brought in to recover the bulldozer.
The man was cited with first-degree DWI and refusal to take a sobriety test.

OWASP AntiSamy 1.0 Released!
I'm releasing the OWASP AntiSamy project today. I have a host of early adopters from big name companies who are looking to integrate the solution, including Sun, eBay and more. While it's really exciting that I'm getting some instant traction, I know there is a lot of work ahead. The framework is in place and the theoretical solution is now out there, but we need implementations in .NET and PHP as soon as humanly possible.
To download the code, the binaries, JavaDocs and all the normal distribution stuff, please visit the project page on Google Code. To test a live AntiSamy demo, visit my test page where you can attack a number of different policy files. There's also a paper I wrote (PDF) which explains the design choices I made when building AntiSamy. It doubles as an academic overview of the framework. Finally, there's the slides I presented at the OWASP & WASC Fall 2007 conference in San Jose. More on that in a future post.
Wider usage means more people looking at the problem and establishing more useful policy files. If you are interested in helping out, please let me know. I talked to a couple people at the conference from Zend and a few people from the Rails community that were interested, so I'm counting on those people to drop me a line. I plan on writing the .NET version since that's a language that I know with at least a passing familiarity.
Like I wrote on RSnake's site, I'm not just looking for ways to bypass the security filter. If you can find one, that's great (sort of). I'm also looking for usability requests or suggestions. Throughout the development of AntiSamy I tried to imagine myself as the developer at MySpace faced with the Herculean task of only allowing non-malicious HTML/CSS. I figure if that guy can utilize the API in a usable way, then anyone can. Unfortunately, that guy probably killed himself a long time ago.

Comments On Jul 26, 2015:Everything fit correctly without having to modify anything. Came with "lock nuts" to make sure they don't come loose easily. Some might say "buy Houser or Rath" ..... ok, are they under $100? Don't get me wrong I love Houser! The nets went on easy and everything looks nice. Definitely a better fit than than the AC nerfs that I have had in the past. These are buy far the best I have seen near this price! Would buy again, and will for the next quad I get.

So far I have ridden 3 times with them and they are fairly tough. I have rubbed a few trees with them and they seem to be holding up.

As the economic aftershock of the disaster in Japan rolls through the region, the government has forecast a drop in exports to the country, one of its top trading partners.
"Exports to Japan will decline in the next three to four months as it focuses on recovery," Mahendra Siregar, the deputy trade minister, said on Saturday. "However, we may see a jump in the second half as they will look to replace damaged goods."
Mahendra recalled the impact of the Kobe earthquake in 1995, saying Japan would recover and, in turn, help Indonesia's exports to the country rebound.
"During the Kobe earthquake, Japan's imports weakened for around six months, and at that time as much as 20 percent of our exports went to Japan," he said. "Now, we are less dependent on Japan. Even though Japan was still our main export destination last year, the percentage of exports had dropped to 13 percent.
"There's no need for Indonesian industries to overreact in assessing Japan's earthquake, and there's no need to look for alternative markets. They have been through this before and managed to recover. I think we should focus on how we will meet rising demand [after Japan's recovery]."
Mahendra expressed hope that Japan would recover soon. If its economy slowed too much this year, he said, it would have a considerable impact on its investment in Indonesia.
"Japan's investment in the last five years reached more than $9 billion, of which 38 percent was in the manufacturing sector," he said. "In the tourism sector, the number of Japanese tourists is around 500,000 people annually, contributing around $70 million."
Indonesia expects to earn $8.4 billion in tourism revenue this year after making $7.6 billion last year, Tourism Minister Jero Wacik said in December. Foreign tourist arrivals are expected to increase to about 7.7 million this year, from 7 million last year.
According to data from the Central Statistics Agency (BPS), Japan was the biggest destination for Indonesia's non-oil and gas exports last year and the second-biggest in terms of imports. Exports to Japan were valued at $16.49 billion last year, while imports from the country totaled $16.9 billion.
Indonesia's total exports last year were valued at $157.7 billion, while imports were $135.6 billion.
Mahendra said imports of capital goods and automotive products would fall because Sendai, one of Japan's main industrial centers, was among the hardest-hit areas in the disaster.
"Imports of automotive products will be disrupted because Sendai is one of the areas where major manufacturers like Toyota are located," he said. "Damage sustained at the Fukushima nuclear power plant, which supplies 28 percent of Japan's electricity, will also reduce Japan's manufacturing productivity."
Indonesian machineries' imports from Japan account for 30 percent of total imports, Mahendra said, while vehicle imports account for around 12 percent.
Uncertainty over when Japanese manufacturers will return to full capacity has left local car distributors worrying how will they meet sales targets.
Teddy Irawan, vice president of sales and marketing at Nissan Motor Indonesia, said last week that his company had set a sales target of 60,000 units this year and had yet to revise that target because it did not know the extent of the damage in Japan.
"Even though most of our cars are manufactured in Thailand, we aren't sure about Thailand's imports of spare parts from Japan and we don't know how safe the supply is from Japan. We can't sell a car that is not complete," Teddy said.
"However, I'm sure the manufacturers will find a way to meet demand because this year the Indonesian automotive market is looking good."

Necrotizing enterocolitis (NEC) is a devastating disease that affects mostly the intestine of premature infants. The wall of the intestine is invaded by bacteria, which cause local infection and inflammation that can ultimately destroy the wall of the bowel (intestine). Such bowel wall destruction can lead to perforation of the intestine and spillage of stool into the infant's abdomen, which can result in an overwhelming infection and death.
Etiology and Risk Factors
Overall, NEC affects one in 2,000 to 4,000 births, or between 1% and 5% of neonatal intensive care unit admissions. The disease occurs in nearly 10% of premature infants but is rare in full term infants. Although the exact cause of NEC is still unknown, there are many theories to explain why NEC affects mainly premature infants. The only consistent observations made in infants who develop NEC are the presence of prematurity and formula feeding. The premature infant has immature lungs and immature intestines. Therefore, any decrease in oxygen delivery to the intestines, because the lungs cannot oxygenate the blood adequately, will damage the lining of the intestinal wall. This damage to the bowel wall will allow bacteria that normally live inside the intestine to invade the wall of the intestine and cause local infection and inflammation (NEC) that can eventually lead to rupture or perforation of the intestine.
Clinical Presentation
NEC typically develops within the first 2 weeks of life in a premature infant who is being fed with formula as opposed to breast milk. One of the first signs of NEC is the inability of the infant to tolerate the feedings. This is often associated with abdominal distention (bloating) and vomiting bile (green). The infant may also have bloody stools because of the infection of the bowel wall. If the infection is not recognized early, then the child may develop a low respiratory rate or periodic breathing (apnea) and a low heart rate that may necessitate insertion of a breathing tube. Other findings may include a red and tender abdomen (see Figure 1), diarrhea, lethargy (listlessness) and shock (decreased blood pressure).
The diagnosis of NEC is usually confirmed by the presence of gas or air bubbles in the wall of the intestine on an abdominal X-ray (see Figure 2A). Other radiographic findings may include the presence of air bubbles in some of the veins that go to the liver, or the presence of air outside of the intestines in the abdominal cavity (see Figure 2B). Blood tests may reveal decreased number of platelets, which normally help form blood clots and prevent bleeding, and decreased number of white blood cells, which normally help fight bacterial infections. These findings put the infant at risk for bleeding and serious systemic infection.
The majority of infants with NEC are initially treated medically and symptoms often resolve without requiring surgery. Initial treatment of NEC consists of the following:
The operation consists of removing the piece of intestine that has ruptured or is about to rupture. The surgeon tries very hard to preserve as much intestine as possible by removing only the segments that appear to be frankly dead or have ruptured (see Figure 3B). In most instances, especially if the baby is very sick (in shock for instance) or if there is extensive spillage of stool in the abdomen, the surgeon may decide to bring out a viable piece of proximal intestine (the segment of intestine that is located closest to the stomach) to the abdomen in order to avoid continued spillage of stool in the abdomen; this is known as an ostomy. In this instance, the baby will poop out of the stoma instead of spilling stool into the abdomen. The stoma should allow sufficient time for the baby to recover from the infection with the help of antibiotics and other treatments. If the child recovers, after 6-8 weeks, he can be brought back to the operating room to undergo reversal of the stoma to restore continuity of the bowel so that the poop will come out of the anus once again.
Most infants who develop NEC recover fully and do not have further feeding problems. In some cases, scarring and narrowing of the bowel may develop and can lead to future intestinal obstruction or blockage. Another residual problem may be malabsorption (the inability of the bowel to absorb nutrients normally). This is more common in children who require surgery for NEC and lose a large segment of intestine. Still, there are some infants who lose so much intestine from the infection that they do not have enough intestine left to survive. These infants may end up requiring a bowel transplant to survive.
Future Therapy
There are many exciting prospects on the horizon to try to treat or prevent NEC. Some of the more promising treatments include administration of probiotic ("good") bacteria to premature infants to oppose the effects of the pathogenic ("bad") bacteria that cause the infection. Other promising treatments that we have come up with from the research done in our laboratory include blocking the production of a substance known as nitric oxide, which is produced in high quantity during NEC and contributes to the destruction of the bowel wall. Also, very small quantities of carbon monoxide, the same gas that comes out of the muffler of automobiles or from cigarette smoke, appear to protect baby rats from developing a "rat form" of NEC (intestinal inflammation), by decreasing production of nitric oxide.

Safe Bet: Seat Belts Improve Your Odds
What Happens to Your Body in a Collision?
- The vehicle strikes another object, such as a tree or car.
- The "human impact" occurs. Unbelted occupants slam into the vehicle's interior—the steering wheel, windshield, roof—or into other occupants.
- The final impact takes place within your body as the internal organs smash against other body parts—the heart hitting the sternum, the brain hitting the skull, the lungs hitting the ribs.
- Hold you securely, taking advantage of the vehicle's own protective crushing effect as it absorbs energy in the first impact.
- Distribute the force of the human impact across the strong parts of the body. Your body hits the belt rather than the steering wheel, windshield, or other hard parts of the interior.
- Prevent occupants from colliding with each other.
- Help the driver maintain control, decreasing the possibility of an additional collision.
- Prevent occupants from being ejected.
What About Air Bags?
What Is Your Excuse?
|Reasons for Not Wearing a Seat Belt
|I am just going to the store.
|Most deadly crashes take place close to home.
|I am a good driver.
|You may not be the cause of an accident. The accident may be caused by another driver. Also, unbelted drivers have less chance to control the vehicle after the impact.
|I am not in the habit of wearing them.
|You are a role model for others. For example, children are less likely to be buckled up if adults are not.
|It is my personal preference.
|During a crash, unbelted occupants can injure other people in the car. Also, unbuckled crash victims have a ripple effect on everyone in terms of high healthcare costs, taxes, and health insurance.
|I am afraid of being trapped in a fire or under water.
|The vast majority of fatalities result from the force of impact, not from being trapped.

Haverhill husky owners speak out about raw feeding as Channel 5 prepares to air The Truth About Your Dog's Food
Posted: January 30, 2014|
Husky owners have spoken out about the benefits of raw feeding as Channel 5 prepares to air a programme on dog diets.
Sarah Howard, chair of ONE Haverhill, joins other dog owners in the town for regular walks - and practicing the controversial eating plan for dogs.
Mrs Howard has two huskies - Alfie, 14 months, and Eva, four months, - and both have been fed raw meat since they were weaned.
She said: "I've always wanted a husky so when I finally was in a position to get one I did a great deal of research.
"I know that they are demanding, need a lot of walking, grooming and attention - more than a normal dog. I had also read that they can have quite sensitive stomachs."
Raw feeding involves giving the dog real meat, such as mince or chicken, instead of processed kibble and other dog foods.
When Eva, who came from Battersea Dogs and Cats Home, arrived to live with Mrs Howard and her family, she had an upset stomach.
Five days into the raw food diet, she was as good as new, Mrs Howard said.
"Many people say that their dog's behaviour improves when you move them on to raw - I can't confirm this with my own dog as they have been raw fed from such a young age", she said.
"I can say that Alfie is the most chilled, relaxed, stress-free husky you could hope to meet.
"It does take some thought, but I've chosen to have these animals so I think I owe it to them to feed them and look after them as best I can."
Angela Day, of Meadowsweet Close, started a Haverhill Snow Dogs and Friends Group on Facebook - and members practice raw feeding.
Mrs Day said that cutting out the processed kibble improves general health, and behaviour.
She has three huskies, Skye, Shadow and Storm. Her dog food bill has gone from £300 to £80 a month.
Mrs Day, 45, said: "The dogs had poor coats, bad skin and teeth and were getting fat despite all of the runs.
"After about six weeks on raw, they had so much energy. Their skin had cleared up and I only visit the vet's once a year now."
For more information on raw feeding, tune in to The Truth About Your Dog's Food on Channel 5 at 9pm tonight.
The programme will investigate what really goes into processed dog foods, and the truth about different diets for pets.
Search Haverhill Snow Dogs and Friends on Facebook for more information about the local group.

Just Purchased an Ipod Touch..am I able to
Am I able to use applications that are used on the ipod with my ipod touch? I havn't looked much into it but I have a blackjack and I can download different applications for it and I bet you can for the iphone, but say if I got a messaging application that worked on the Iphone, could I use it on the itouch?
Also is there a way to use AIM instant messaging on the itouch without having to use websites such as ebuddy.com?
Last I checked, hacking the Touch is going rather slowly. So even if the iPhone apps DID work on the Touch, the problem is getting them on there.
Give it some more time. The iPhone wasn't hacked overnight either ;)

Recall effort directed at San Diego Mayor could take months
With enough signatures, December vote possible
SAN DIEGO - If San Diego Mayor Bob Filner continues to ignore pleas for his resignation amid a series of scandals he may be able to keep his office at City Hall into 2014. Why? Because recalls take time, and there's no guarantee of success.
By law, recalling an elected official in San Diego is a long process.
Recall organizer Mike Pallamary completed the first step July 28 when he published his intent to recall notice in the newspaper.
Filner had 14 days to reply, and on the 11th hour of the 14th day he did, although he did not follow the rules which say the response must include a signature. The recall will move forward with or without that signature.
On August 18, petitions can begin circulating as volunteers try to collect more than 101,000 valid signatures in 39 days. Those signatures must be turned in no later than September 26.
That is when the timeline becomes more vague. The city clerk has up to 30 days to validate the signatures, and if they are insufficient, the clerk notifies the recall committee that they have another 30 days to file supplemental petitions. That could move the timeline to late November.
If there are enough signatures at that point, the clerk notifies City Council, which must schedule a special election in not less than 60 and not more than 90 days.
By 10News' calculations, the best-case scenario could put a recall vote in mid-December, but with delays it could easily extend to late February or even early March.
