Oregon Ducks Run Past Women's Basketball in Exhibition Game
EUGENE, ORE. -- The Willamette University women's basketball team faced NCAA Division I opponent University of Oregon on Wednesday, Nov. 3 in an exhibition game at McArthur Court. The Bearcats were defeated by the Ducks, 121-41. Willamette was led by senior Alex Zennan (G, Sammamish, WA/Eastlake HS), who scored a team-high 14 points.
The game marked the start of the final season at Mac Court for Oregon basketball. The Ducks first played at Mac Court in 1927. Oregon will begin play at the new Matthew Knight Arena later this season.
The Ducks, who play in the Pac-10 Conference, are known for their full-court press, fast break and up-tempo offense. Oregon Head Coach Paul Westhead used 14 players in the game, with no player earning more than 19 minutes of play.
The Bearcats connected on 15 of 59 field goal attempts and shot 25.4% from the field. Zennan went 4 of 12 from 3-point range on her way to scoring 14 points. She also added eight rebounds and three assists.
Freshmen MacKenzie Lamson (F, Portland, OR/Lincoln HS) and Rebecca Josephson (F, Fair Oaks, CA/Del Campo HS) each chipped in six points for the Bearcats. Senior Erin Barclay (G, Snohomish, WA/Bothell HS) came off the bench to contribute five points.
Kaileigh Westermann (Jr., F, Belfair, WA/South Kitsap HS) pulled down eight rebounds in just 13 minutes of play for the Bearcats. Willamette was out-rebounded 68-48 during the game.
The Ducks used a balanced scoring attack as nine players earned eight points or more. Ashley Buis had a game-high 18 points for Oregon. The Ducks shot 37.6% from the field and made 41 of 109 shots.
WU will play in Portland, Ore., against Concordia University in the regular season opener on Nov. 19, before returning to Salem for the Bearcats' home opener against Northwest Christian University on Nov. 20.

It is important that bagpipe reeds receive the correct amount of moisture in order for them to play at their best. If chanter reeds are played too dry they will tend to be sharp on the top hand, especially the high G, thin in tone and may have a tendency to chirp or squeal. If they are too wet they will sound dull, may buckle on the F and have a shorter life. Asking how much moisture is needed is like asking 'how long is a piece of string? The answer will depend on the climate and who is playing. If you are playing at altitude or in a very arid climate it may be best to play without a moisture control system fitted to the pipes. If playing in a humid environment or you are a wet blower then a moisture control system is important. Synthetic reeds play best with little or no moisture whatsoever. On the other hand, cane reeds enjoy some moisture.
Your reed's performance is dependent on many variables. Not least of which is moisture content. If your reed is acting up it may be that the moisture in your pipes may need some form of control. If the problem is one of those listed here then check the moisture levels first as this may resolve the issue. Remember that all variables need to be considered, checked and maintained regularly if you are to enjoy the full benefit of your bagpipe reeds.
If you have any questions concerning your own set-up please feel free to contact me and I will do my best to help you get the best from your reeds.

What if there's a players' strike and tax revenue from the stadium drops to zero? Surely that would dent the notion that a new ballpark would pay for itself. "Those are very good questions that should be asked as public authorities," Lamping responds. "If they're going to consider being part of it, they should ask those questions and deal with it at that point." What would his answer be if they ask? Lamping answers with a question: "How much is the public putting in?" Well, they're putting in $250 million. "They are?" he responds. That's what you've asked for. "No, no, no," he says. "What we've said is, we're going to put up the $120 million. There's $250 million to find. We would suggest that that would be handled via some sort of tax-exempt revenue bonds and that the annual obligation for those come from a number of sources. We need to find $19 million (each year), is what we said. If it doesn't come from the public and it doesn't come from the team, who knows?" What other sources might there be other than the team and the public? Again Lamping plays connect-the-dots, refusing to volunteer any examples or specifics for the public to consider. "I guess you'd have to look at what financing plans have taken place for other stadiums," he says.
OK, how about San Francisco? The Giants, with the help of corporate sponsors, are paying for their own $343 million stadium after voters four times rejected public financing for a new ballpark to replace Candlestick Park, a stadium notorious for poor attendance and a lack of premium seats and other amenities to boost revenue. There's no comparison, claim the Cardinals. For one thing, the Giants don't have as large a tax burden as the Cardinals, Lamping and other team officials say. Then there's the size of the Bay Area media market. The team notes that there are more television sets in San Francisco than in St. Louis, so the Giants can make more money from local broadcast and cable rights. But St. Louis, unlike San Francisco, is a baseball town, and that's reflected in the teams' contracts with local media. According to Broadcasting and Cable magazine, the Giants are getting $14.5 million a year for local rights. The Cardinals get $12 million a year, not including whatever the team makes from 45 games it broadcasts on KPLR-TV (Channel 11) (the team buys time from the station and keeps whatever money it makes from commercials).
The Cardinals propose paying $1 million a year to help pay for maintenance at the new stadium. Would this constitute rent? "I think you should look at it as, we're going to contribute $1 million a year, and what happens beyond that is a function of how the rest of the plan comes together," Lamping says. "Is there a possibility there could be more? Absolutely." Just how much more, the team won't say. "We have an idea of what would make sense, but we don't believe we should be negotiating a lease before there's even a belief that the stadium's going to get built," Lamping says.
The team, which has committed $100 million in upfront money, says it will retain naming rights for a new stadium, a deal that could be worth well more than $100 million, judging from what's happened in other cities. Last year, naming rights for the Washington Redskins' stadium fetched $205 million. The Houston Astros, who got $100 million for their stadium that opened this season, have the largest naming-rights deal in baseball. Naming rights typically include a lump-sum payment on the front end and $1 million or more each year, but the Cardinals wouldn't necessarily have to wait for their money. In Denver, Ascent Arena Co., owner of the Nuggets basketball team and Avalanche hockey club, used $68 million in naming rights for Pepsi Center (plus revenue from suite rentals and corporate sponsorships) to back $139.8 million in taxable bonds.
Personal seat licenses (PSLs) are another potential source of upfront revenue for the team, but Lamping doesn't want to get into that. "We have absolutely no idea what the financing of this plan is going to look like," he says when the subject of PSLs comes up.
Query fans at Busch on any given day, and it's tough to find anyone who wants the place replaced. "It's 30 years old, but there's nothing wrong with it," says Larry Kleinkemper, who's been an usher for three years and a Cardinals fan since Stan Musial roamed the field at Sportsman's Park, where the team played before Busch opened in 1966. "It's a beautiful park. Of course, I'm prejudiced. I've been a Cardinals fan all my life." Kleinkemper, 69, would work for free. "I do it because I like baseball and I like to have fun," he says from the left-field stands during batting practice before a recent game against the Milwaukee Brewers. A few dozen fans line the outfield fence more than an hour before the first pitch in hopes of snagging a ball. When the gates open two hours before the national anthem, at least 50 fans in search of autographs stampede toward the first-base line to secure spots where players are most likely to saunter by. It's wet today from an earlier rain, causing a few of the autograph hounds to slip and fall as they sprint down the stadium steps. They get right back up and keep on going. It's like this every game, Kleinkemper says.

Cinnamon Roll Pull-Apart Bread
This is one of those recipes that's been ruminating in my mind for a very long time. Lucky for you, I finally made it.
Cinnamon Roll Pull-Apart Bread: like cinnamon rolls, but in a loaf of bread!
Oh, and maple glaze. Because, well, duh. Maple!
Sometimes I get an idea for a recipe and I just can't make it work. I try and I try and I try again and then I say some curse words because oh-the-waste, and then I give up and move on.
I gave this recipe a first go back in January, when I was writing my cookbook, Dessert Mash-Ups. I wanted a cinnamon roll that was a loaf of bread. I tried three times to get the recipe perfect but I just couldn't make it work. I was super disappointed, and not just because I'd wasted 2 pounds of butter.
Fast forward 8 months and I finally figured out how to make cinnamon roll bread work!
You make cinnamon roll dough and turn it into pull-apart bread. Same recipe, different concept. And guess what? It worked!
Now, you may be asking me, what the heck is a pull-apart bread? In which case I'll point you to this recipe and say, hang on, we'll get there.
First, you start with cinnamon roll dough. If you need help getting to this point, see my helpful step-by-step photo tutorial in my favorite cinnamon roll recipe post.
That recipe is my absolute favorite, and I've used it for so many other cinnamon rolls, like Gingerbread, Almond, and Peanut Butter.
Roll out your dough into a rectangle. Then comes the pull-apart part. It's all about how you slice the dough.
Slice your rectangle into 18 semi-squares. They're not perfect, but that doesn't matter. This is what creates the "pull-apart" part of the bread.
Next comes the reason I call this "cinnamon roll" pull-apart: the filling.
I made a variation of the basic filling I use to fill my cinnamon rolls and spread a little on each square. Now, in my head I told myself, leave one plain. But obviously I forgot to do that, as you can see. The last piece of your bread needs to have no filling when you're stacking, because you don't want filling touching the pan.
But if you forget like I did, just turn it upside down. In case you're a visual learner and just read that sentence 3 times and don't get it (I'm right there with you) here's what it looks like when you stack it:
Stack all the pieces of dough, leaving both ends plain so no filing is touching the pan. Note: stack in two piles, not one as shown. The dough is soft after you've been working with it, so it'll stick together and won't "pull-apart" as much.
Place your stacks in your pan, like this:
It won't totally fill your loaf pan – yet. Cover with plastic and chill overnight and it'll swell up to fit your pan just fine.
That's one of my favorite things about my cinnamon roll recipe (and this bread): all the hard work is done the day before. The day of you just have to bake it and eat it. That's my kind of breakfast!
Oh, but first you have to put icing on top. I mean…what is a cinnamon roll without icing?
I made mine maple because obviously I'm addicted to maple, but you don't have too. Use your favorite extract: coconut, almond, lemon…or maple.
This is like cinnamon rolls…but it's bread. Pull it apart and shove it in your face.
Or get a plate, a fork, and a napkin. Whatever.
Cinnamon Roll Pull-Apart Bread – your new favorite breakfast. It sure is mine. I'm so glad I tried this bread again. If you try something enough times…it'll eventually work.
At least this time.
Cinnamon Roll Pull-Apart Bread
Yield: 12 servings
Cinnamon rolls - in bread form! Cinnamon roll dough is cut into squares and formed into a loaf of bread for a new twist on breakfast. Filled with cinnamon and topped with maple glaze, this is your new favorite breakfast.
For the Dough:
- 1 package active dry yeast (about 2 1/4 teaspoons)
- 3/4 cup warm non-fat milk (heated to about 120 degrees, about 30-45 seconds in the microwave)
- 1/3 cup sugar
- 3 tablespoons unsalted butter, softened
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 egg
- 3 - 3 1/4 cups all-purpose flour, plus more for dusting
- Paddle attachment & dough hook for your mixer
For the Filling:
- 3 tablespoons butter, softened
- 1/3 cup brown sugar
- 2 teaspoons cinnamon
- 2 tablespoons flour
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
For the Frosting:
- 2 tablespoons butter, melted
- 3/4 cup powdered sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/4 teaspoon maple extract, optional
- 2 tablespoons heavy whipping cream
Make the Dough:
- Place milk in a microwave safe measuring cup. Heat for 45-60 seconds in the microwave, until it's about 120°F. (The time you heat it will need to be adjusted depending on your microwave. You can use a candy or a meat thermometer to test the temperature.) Add yeast and stir. Let it sit for a few minutes.
- Place sugar, butter, salt, and egg in the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment. Mix until the butter is distributed throughout the liquids, although it may be chunky. Pour in the milk/yeast mixture and stir for a few seconds.
- Add flour and stir with the paddle attachment just until the mixture starts to stick to the paddle. Then replace the paddle with the dough hook. Continue mixing on low speed until the dough forms a ball in the center of the bowl. If dough is still very sticky, you can add an additional 1/4 cup of flour.
- Spray a large bowl with cooking spray and place the dough ball in it. Spray the top of the dough ball with cooking spray (lightly) and cover the bowl with plastic wrap. Let sit for 2-4 hours until it doubles in size. Note on rising: if your house is warm, it should rise no problem. If it's cold in your house, it may take longer for the dough to rise.
Prepare your Bread:
- Stir together butter, brown sugar, cinnamon, and flour until it forms a paste.
- Spray an approximate 9x5" loaf pan with cooking spray.
- Once the dough is risen, roll it out on a lightly floured surface into a large rectangle, about 10" by 14". Slice into 18 sections. Spread a little filling on each section, except for one (that will be your last piece, you don't want the filling touching the end of the pan).
- Stack half of the sections and place in prepared pan. Stack the second half and place them in front of the first, making sure that the ends touching the ends of the pan have no filling on them. (You need to stack them in two sections because otherwise the weight of the top of the stack with seal the bottom of the stack together and it won't be "pull-apart" anymore.) The stack won't totally fill the pan, but it will once it rises again.
- You have two ways to continue. (1) let pan rise for 1 hour at room temperature then bake as directed or (2) cover pan with plastic wrap and refrigerate overnight.
- When ready to bake, preheat oven to 350°F. Remove the rolls from the refrigerator (if you chilled them overnight) and let them warm up to room temperature while the oven is preheating. Remove the plastic wrap and bake for about 25 minutes, or until they are golden brown.
Make the frosting:
- Whisk the melted butter and powdered sugar until mostly smooth. Whisk in vanilla and maple extract (if using). Whisk in heavy cream and pour over warm bread and serve.

Oh my Lord, this is definitely being made this week. Vacation enables my baking side!!! My mouth is watering just looking at it!

I made the filling with an extra portion of cinnamon, it turned out just wonderful Thank you for sharing this
I've wanted to make this ever since seeing Joy's similar post a few years ago, but I'm basically a lazy baker. Your pictures have convinced me that it will be no harder than making cinnamon rolls, and maybe easier. Having typed that, is there a good reason not to slather on the filling before cutting? (Apart from needing one corner to be bare.)
I'm with you on the maple glaze; it works so well on so many things!
I'm thinking this is going to be completely amazing! And I always suck at rolling dough anyway.
you crack me up. i dont always comment but i read you thru my email. i was wondering, as now i HaVE to make this really soon, could i use maple syrup somehow? thanks!
I want to make this at work, but we don't have a d'oh hook..can I use a food processor in place of the hook?

Creation of the Light of Muhammad
[8] Suyūtī said in Manāhil al-safa (p. 53 #128): Ibn Abi Umar al-Adanī relates it in his Musnad. In Takhrīj ahādīth sharh al-mawāqif (p. 32 #12) Suyūtī cites it with the wording: The Quraysh were a light in front of Allāh.
[9] Something similar is narrated by Imām Āhmad in his Fadā'il al-sahāba (2:663 #1130), Dhahabī in Mīzān al-itidāl (1:235), and al-Tabarī in al-Riyād al-nādirā (2:164, 3:154).
[10] Narrated by al-Hākim in his Mustadrak (2:616-617), Āhmad in his Musnad (4:184), and Bayhaqī in Dalā'il al-nubūwwa (1:110, 2:8). Ibn al-Jawzī cites it in al-Wafā' (p. 91, ch. 21 of Bidāyat nabīyyina sall-Allāhu alayhi wa sallam), and Ibn Kathīr in Mawlid rasūl Allāh and his Tafsīr (4:360). Haythamī cites it in Majma al-zawāid (8:221) and said Tabarānī and Āhmad narrated it, and Āhmad's chain is fair (hasan). See for Āhmad's complete text Bishāratu Isā (#454).

It´s reading week, so obviously I am reading and studying very hard...in Madrid! I haven't been to Spain since I was maybe 4 and so it was very exciting to finally use my Spanish and see the capital!
Last time I came to Spain, I looked like this. Yeah, so it´s been a while.
Getting here was an absolutely nightmare, I was supposed to leave Friday night to get here to party, instead I missed my flight and had to take the first flight out the next morning...which I also missed and ended up getting here at 1pm on Saturday. FAIL.
I´m only here until Tuesday, and then I´m off to Genova in Italy to visit my family for the rest of the week where I will have more time to blog, so stay tuned!

Told you all it was going to to go up, For absolutely NO RESAON other than Corporate Greed, They Know they can and you can do nothing about it.
Now we can begin to watch them somehow mysteriously begin to drop just before Friday so as they can say again that they actually went down before the Holiday.
Really!!!!! Then Please explain why they went up on Wednesday for no reason other than the hoilday weekend is coming.
Afterall, if they were already going down, Then just why did that not continue afterall the Price of Oil has still dropped again.
A better question is, I guess which Oil Refinery went conveinetly down for Maintainece, or is now only pumping at 60-70% capacity, Supply and Demand, Means Prices Go Up, Even More when it is a Holiday Travel Weekend.
It also gives the Government the Ability to track each car or truck, If they really want to look for it.
Just like a Camera in a Parking Lot if they want to go back and look for one they can or could.
Thanks to the 911, They can track you anyway, anywhere or anytime they so choose. While this is supossedly not the intent, It can and will be done if they feel the need.
Soon every indivdual will also be implanted with a Microchip, being used for everything from Medical Care Entitlement to Proof of Citizenship, or even GPS Tracking.
You just can never get people to comprehend, That their Dog, No matter how sweet or gentle or behaved it is, Will most likely never produce another puppy just like them.
Females DO NOT have to have a litter of puppies to be a good mother, Or have a milder gentler dog.
Any more than a Male has to so called "Sew it's Oats" to be a Better Tempermented Dog.
Believe it, DOGS DO NOT CARE. They are just that Dogs. Yes, People treat them like family, I do to, Yet they still are Dogs.
Spay and Neutering is the Only way to Ever put the need for Animal Rescues out of Business,And Nobody that has ever done it would be Heart Broken if they didn't exist because of No need.
If you really believe they are not going to go up before Friday, You are smoking some serious dope. You can just about Bet money that Gas will be going up by at least 15 cents or more by Wednesday.
Actually I would be almost shocked not to see it go up as early as Today, If for no other reason to be able to say it went down for the Holiday Weekend.
This type of thing happens alot more often than most people ever think about actually. Working with Animal Rescues you see just how many are out there everyday.
While Rescues cannot save them all either, The ONLY REAL solution is SPAY/NEUTER Programs. Yet when a Typical Vet Charge for a Spay/Neuter is $100 or More is many cases,, Alot of people WILL NOT spend that kind of money on getting a Pet or Stray for that matter done.
While there are Groups out there that CAN and DO for a lower cost, They are also Limited by the Private Funds/ Donations they receive. Most of these groups are also run by Devoted Volunteers.
The Best Case solution would be to come up with some sort of Program or incentive to make people want to get them done. Yet who or how does it get Payed for? This day and age of Government Budgets that type of Program is never goingt o happen.
Yet Everyday 10,000 humans are born in the U.S. - and each day 70,000 puppies and kittens are born. This means there are 7 puppies and kittens born for every human baby, As long as these birth rates exist, there will never be enough homes for all the animals. As a result, every year 4 to 6 million animals are euthanized because there are no homes for them.
We have to Figure out a way to make Spay/Neuter affordable not just for Low incomes but for everyone, Plus some how make people Aware enough to care to get it done.
It is not impossible, Yet will also not be an easy task to accomplish but then again, Nothing worthwhile ever is.
If you sell a quality product people will eat and shop there, When it calls into question the saftey of the food you do not, Why would anyone take that type of risk? Sadly theu did not do this just one time and got caught they did it twice!
You would be a Foolish person to put yourself or your family and friends into the situation of eating tainted food. It is No huge suprise they are no longer here.
Maybe back in Chicago people do not care if they eat unrefrigerated meat, But I know even if i visit there I will never be eating there. That is a Fact.
They are wrong, The Focus is actually Getting Debbie Stabenow, voted OUT of Office!
She is worthless and has been in Washington way to long, It is time to put somebody in there that remembers what it is they are there for.
They ALL need to go.
Your answer to both questions is No Limits,Unless they are inside the City limits of certain Townships in the county, But Most have none.
They Do however ALL have to be vaccinated for Rabies and have a current Dog License, But yet they are a Misdomeanor offense if they do not have one. Which is why most of the charges against these people couldn't be prosocuted, While Yes, it is neglect, The laws are only enforcable as misdomeanors meaning Fines and Probation, Without any real serious jail time. Even then it would only be like 90 days or something silly like that, if I remember correctly
The real reason it dooesn't pass is too many people are to worried about being Politically Correct.
Bull Pucky, Accidents do happen those should never see a Death Penalty, However Mass Murders and Premeditaion should be Automatic.
Quit giving people 20 years for appeals, This day and age of DNA evidence,It wouldn't seem that hard to carry out such sentences. But then again someones feeling might get hurt.
SB 892 is in a commitee still pending approval, But basically it does nothing, All it says is a Large Scale Breeding Facility would be in violation, if they Breed an animal more than one time every 12 months, They get $1000 fine or up to 93 days in jail, and Loss of thier Breeding License,
Since in the case of 353 here, It means nothing, Since they already do not have a license anyway what makes this even enforcable. Just boils down to a Bad Breeder over it's head.
The Bill also does not apply to Non-profit Shelters or rescues.
The HB I don't know where that one is at currently but it basically does the same thing,
While there is No reason for having 350 to begin with, And yes some I have seen do have problems that if they had seen a vet may have been avoidable, If they are going to charge them, make it for something that means jail time.
Not having a License or Shots is usually a Misdomenor Offense, Which is a simple Fine and NOT jail time. The fact they did releinquish them, Tells me this will be Plea bargined down to simple probation and maybe not allowing them to own more than one animal at a time. But that is pushing it for punishment. Unless theyhave more than what the are showing so far, While Yes, They have been neglected and it is abuse. Animal Abuse cases in Allegan or anywhere in Michigan are hard to even proove, Let alone win.
This will be Plea bargined out to nothing by the time it is done.
Okay, So call me stupid on this one, What exactally does Animals Absconding mean? I really have no clue?
Just answer the Questions I have asked, All I want is the Truth, All I have ever asked were legitament questions, You or your Orginization has YET to reply too.
#1 Has the SPCA aquired a Mortage for the current building and payed for the land it is on?
#2 Have the Vet Bills been Paid to within reasonable amounts or are many local vets still owed Thousands of Dollars,
#3 How do you expect to pay $35000 a year for a Building Operations Director when you obivously are in money trouble?
#4 Where is this money going to come from to pay for such a person, Private Donations that were meant for Animal Rescue and not Building Director?
#5 Are you willing to show you Current Audits from 2007-2011 to the General Public?
We are good at what we do, we take pride in what we do, we just made a mistake." I could beleive it was a mistake except for one very important thing.
In December 2011, another truck was stopped for violations; it, too, was found to be carrying food without proper refrigeration or containers.
Meaning not only did they do it one time, They actually did it twice and got caught both times. While Yes, Mistakes do happen, Twice, In my opinion means intent or stupidity.
Thriving? Is that what you want to call it being on the Brink of closing the doors? Or was the story told a week or 2 ago about just another ploy to get donations?
Which is it anyway, If your truley thriving then why all the hype about a possible closing on the local news and paper? Either it would be a TRUE FACT meaning you are not thriving,And you are actually fighting for pure survival, OR it is another fabircated story to drum up more donation money by playing on sympathy of unknowing people.
So I ask again, Has the SPCA of SWMICH finally gotten the building loan/ Mortage OR are they STILL paying interest only on a construction loan as you are unable to find financing?
You do realize it cannot be left in a construction type finiancing loan forever right? Has the Land been finally purchased from its original owners?
Why did the Last Board President resign after just 2-3 months after this so called last election held in Sept?
You are correct, You are Thriving if this has been done, My opinion is you are struggling for survival yet you are too far gone to even admit it to yourself.
So tell everyone, How do you PAY for a $35000 a year building director, When you obviously owe Thousands of dollars in vet bills, Or is that what the Private Donations are really for and Not actually going to Vet bills?
Has anybody got a better solution or place to put these critters? It takes money to take care of, Feed and Medicate even small critters, She does this on her own, Unless someone is willing to STEP UP and help out, Leave her alone, It seems everyone wants to destroy something positive, Yet have No Problem in the world with shutting it down.
You can do one of two things, #1 The Right Thing, Give her a better place Rent Free to do it, But will not likely happen, or #2 Complain about it Shut her down and watch a bunch of innocent critters die.
Be part of the Solution, Volunteer your time, Help her out, Yet Most will not because it is EASIER to complain about and Shut down than it is to get involved and fix the actual problem.
Animal Rescue of any kind is not easy, Yet it is easy to complain about.
Vollunteer for just 6 Months, I bet your whole outlook on things totally change that quickly.
As I stated to begin with, Mistakes were made in the Beggining also, Yet the current Board of Directors is now incharge and has been for almost 3 years.
Medical Bill are not or were not being paid without Court Orders making them do to it, Mortgages for property is only paid for as Interest only so far since they cannnot get Lender Approval, So YES I do know what I am talking about, Is not an Opinion these are Facts.
Has the just Property the Building is built on actually ever been paid for yet? At least it was not since last July. Anybody seen current independant Audit since 2007? Again Not opinions, Just plain old Facts! Ask questions Look for yourself. There are some of us that do know what we are talking about.
Again if M-Live would like to see the ORIGINAL Bylaws of the SPCA of SWMI just let me know I will provide you with them, No Problem, They can see for themselves what was and is changed from when it started in 2002 and yes I do know what I am talking about.
Nobody wants to see this Oginization go under but as long as the Current Band of Croonies is in place they are DOOMED.
Just Facts and Not Opinions. Not Drama, Just the Look for the Truth see for yourself, Bewarned though it will not be pretty either. Go back as Far as you like.
I am not against this, However, Any Govenment Run Program would be a disaster from the start. Drunk Driving Laws are not enforced, Texting while driving is almost impossible to enforce, Animal Cruelty Registy would solve nothing, People that abuse animals would still get them and abuse them, Just as a Gun control laws are useless, Crimminals that want them are still going to get them.
A better idea would be to make the Animal Cruelty Laws with harsher and stronger sentences, But that will not happen unless people begn to look at animals as more than just plain animals.
A Registry is only as good as the people that cn or do enforce them, Do you really think they are going to put a person into jail for not registering? They don't put people into jail for any length of time now for Actual Abuse, let alone not registering for it.
This would solve nothing at all.
If you really want to know the truth behind the SPCA of Southwest Michigan, You must truley dig much deeper than just the Fluff on the top. While Yes Tara Sharp did help to re-write the By Laws of the SPCA, It was only to stabalize the original intentions of the currently elected board, Steps were both taken and implemented to take away the rights of Paid Voting members of the SPCA to the extent of changing the bylaws to Keep removal of the current Borad of Directors from happpening, Without the Ability, As with an Election to remove any current board member without a majority of the Boards Approval, Means there is NoWay possible short of their resignation to remove anyone from the current board, Also any NEW Members would be Approved by the Current Board,, Meaning the Cronnies doing Unethical things will and would continue. as Unstoppable.
If you would like a Copy of the OLD bylaws, Let me know I will be happy to provide them to you, You can see for yourself throught the Board minutes things were and have been doomed.
Ask to SEE the the Audits from 2007- 2011, Numbers Do Not Lie, Look at Contracts of the Building, Who bought it, Who built it, Who got paid and Who did not.
Also Look at the Medical Bills this Orginization has/ had who got paid, Who didn't or still hasn''t. How is this even possible to happen without being mismanaged by the Board of Directors, Who ultimatley has total control of everything happening in the orginization and Not the Buildings Operations Manager.
They are Scapegoats in a crumbling orginization. Yes things were done wrong from the start of the orginization mostly due to Oversite with good intentions, Yet was compounded when Steps were taken to ensure this orginization would never be allowed to make positve changes.
The only thing that will save this Orginization now is to be to REMOVE any and ALL current Board members but that will not be allowed to happen, SO this orginization is destined to fail.
I understand this mothers pain, I really do, I do not even own a cell phone, Just because I do not want one, My wife does however, But I have a hard time trying to see how they pass laws that even the people passing them know are almost impossible to enforce.
I just feel writing a ticket for these infractions is only going to make money for those places that try to enforce them, Personally if my 18 or 19 year old with a non-restricted License was to get pulled over for such an infraction, I would personally hire an attorney and sue the State of Michigan for Harrassment if for no other reason than to just proove this was a profile traffic stop, They best be pulling one over for more than just using a cell phone I can assure you of that. Either Ban it all so it is enforcable Like Seatbelts or don't do it at all. Drunk Driving is against the law but we still see people every single day still getting pulled over, Yet they get a Fine, Community Service and even actually kill people and only get 2 years for another human life, that happened to be in the wrong place at t he wrong time. Did they Learn a lesson? No, Did it cost them Money? Yes, Did it Stop them from doing it? Again No.

Can't access any apple content
since inception I've had dual access to wireless and 'wired' broadband.
I had always noticed an inability to access the likes of MSN on wireless but dealt as the wire was always at hand.
This has changed...
I now only have wireless access to the web. I can't access software updates, the apple website, itunes store, etc from my machine. In all instances the error message tells me to check whether I'm connected to the web. I have no difficulty viewing any other sites.
As the PC in the household is taunting me by viewing the apple website I'm confident this problem is local to my machine.
googling the problem is more miss than hit. 'permissions' 'apple' 'wireless' and variants and combinations thereof provides little light!!
any pointers gratefully received.
Very strange. Also, I haven't a clue, just thought that you could use the bump before your topic disappears into the abyss.

Alright, Scott, i'll have to try that.
I am happy today because my vehicle is still running and gettting me where I need to go.
I am happy today because I heard Roger Miller's- King of the Road on the way home and these verses jumped out at me:-
"A third boxcar,a midnight train,
Destination Bangor Maine,
Old worn out suit and shoes,
I don't pay no union dues,......
.......King of the road"
It always makes me happy when I wake up at a decent time (preferably before 10, at the very latest,) and I woke up, wide-eyed, at approx. 8:45 this morning. Yay!
I'm also happy and very thankful for the MB. Without any of you, I really would be lost..
("All things serve the Beam")
I am happy every day that I have this message board to come to. I've been a lot busier lately than I was a couple of months ago so I don't get to spend as much time here. But it is something that I really look forward to each day.
I am happy today because the weekend is coming!!! Actually it has been only the second day of work after the long Christmas holidays, but these two days are enough to get tired!!! Tomorrow is the celebration of the "old" New Year here, so much has to be done.:rolleyes:
Today is starting to look up. My mind's more at ease, and I'm in the process of working on an important and meaningful writing project.:)
("All things serve the Beam")
I am happy because I seem to be getting over this pesky illness (though not completely!)
Since a certain writing project, I've been thinking about the craft a lot more.:grinning:
Thank you, everyone, for all your support. I love you!
("All things serve the Beam")
I happy today because:
- Day one of two days in a row off work
- The (crazy) severe storms gave a good rain/wind show but left us unharmed (3-4 tornadoes in Kentucky in January? Weird!).

The apparatus is a cooling structure for laptop computers, in which the heat is transferred to a heat pipe in the cover of the case behind the display screen. The heat pipe behind the screen is interconnected with the external wall of the cover by a holding fixture which, preferably, is integrated into the cover wall during manufacture. The cover is specially constructed with high thermal conductivity carbon fibers which are oriented to preferentially conduct heat from the heat pipe to the cover and to spread the heat over the entire external surface of the cover for dissipation into the environment.
1. A heat dissipating computer case comprising:
at least one heat conducting external wall of a computer case constructed of a plastic material with heat conducting fibers embedded within the plastic material, with the fibers oriented so that they conduct heat from a holding fixture to a surface of the wall which is exposed to ambient air;
the holding fixture attached to the inside surface of the external computer case wall which has embedded heat conducting fibers; and
a heat pipe held in the holding fixture in thermal contact with the heat conducting fibers in the wall to which the holding fixture is attached.
2. The computer case of claim 1 wherein the holding fixture comprises a structure on the inside of the external wall with the structure adjacent to an inside corner of the computer case and including a hole into which the heat pipe is inserted, with the hole oriented parallel to the inside corner of the case.
3. The computer case of claim 1 wherein the external wall is located in a part of the computer case within which a display screen is located, and the heat pipe receives heat from a part of the computer case other than the part with the display screen.
4. The computer case of claim 1 wherein the holding fixture comprises a structure on the inside of an external wall of the computer case with the structure including a hole into which the heat pipe is inserted, and the hole in the holding fixture includes a slot along its entire length to facilitate insertion of the heat pipe into the hole.
5. The computer case of claim 1 wherein the holding fixture comprises two deflectable opposed curved surfaces which maintain compression upon a heat pipe installed between the curved surfaces.
6. The computer case of claim 1 wherein the holding fixture is attached to the wall by being formed integral with the wall as the wall is being manufactured.
This invention deals generally with housings and mounting assemblies for electrical systems and devices, and more specifically with a heat dissipating case for a laptop computer.
With the advent of portable, battery operated, personal computers the cooling of integrated circuit chips has become both more critical and more difficult. Desk top computers which are connected to electrical power lines have comparatively unlimited space and power to locate and operate fans for cooling, and they also do not have severe weight restrictions.
Portable computers, the so called laptop computers, are, however, very restricted in space, power, and weight, and such restrictions create significant problems in cooling the critical integrated circuits and disposing of the generated heat. At the same time, the number of functions and the power dissipated by individual integrated circuits has significantly increased, so that the quantity of heat to be removed has also increased.
Numerous patents have addressed these problems, but most of the devices are very complex and difficult to manufacture so that there are significant possibilities for improvement. Some of the prior art devices use heat sinks which are massive parts and which are impractical to use in a laptop computer. Others make the effort to move the heat away from a heat sink which is adjacent to the integrated circuit chip, but attempt to dissipate the heat in nearby metal components within the base, the keyboard section, of the laptop. However, with the high powers of the integrated circuits and the high density of auxiliary heat dissipating components such as CD-ROMs, modems, and power supplies now prevalent in computers, the heat load is approaching the limit of what can be dissipated by natural convection from the surface area of the base of the computer, and heat which is not removed from the region near the integrated circuit can build up and can lead to high temperatures and damage to the integrated circuit chip.
The present invention overcomes this problem by using the cover of the laptop computer, the display screen section, to dissipate the heat generated by integrated circuits within the keyboard section. The screen section of a laptop is particularly suited for the disposal of heat because the case behind the screen has few heat generating components, a large surface area for transferring heat to the environment, and, when in use, the back surface is nearly vertical so that natural convection air currents are easily established.
However, for the cover to act as a heat dissipator it must be constructed of a material with reasonably good heat conduction in the plane parallel to the display screen, and there must be a satisfactory heat transmission path from the keyboard section to the ambient air around the cover section. While metals are, of course, generally used as heat conductive materials, they are generally not satisfactory for laptop computer covers because of their weight and the cost of assembling metal surfaces into the molded plastic cases of laptops. Other materials, such as specially formulated plastics or carbon fibers in a carbon impregnated structure, can, however, be used for heat conduction, and the present invention overcomes the problems associated with the use of such materials in conjunction with a laptop computer.
The transfer of heat to the cover section of the laptop is accomplished by use of heat pipes within the base section and a thermally conductive hinge so that there is only a small temperature difference between the integrated circuit heat sink and the location at which the heat enters the cover. The present invention assures that the heat is also moved from the thermal hinge to the ambient air with minimal temperature difference.
The invention is a heat conductive molded cover section for a laptop computer with an integral heat pipe mounting fixture. The top surface of the cover, the surface behind the screen, is formed of a moldable plastic which has thermally conductive carbon fibers molded into it. The fibers are parallel to each other and are oriented so that they run horizontally across the back of the cover when the cover is open for use. At one location along the path of the carbon fibers a holding fixture for attaching a heat pipe is formed. The preferred embodiment of this fixture is a long cylindrical hole dimensioned to fit around an inserted heat pipe. A suitable location for such a hole is within a web section molded into the corner of the cover where the top surface and one edge meet. The cylindrical hole runs parallel to the corner. A heat pipe is inserted into the holding fixture by sliding it in from one end of the hole. This same heat pipe can be extended to make contact with the thermal hinge.
Alternate embodiments of the holding fixture include various configurations of holding fixtures in locations similar to those in which the hole would be placed. Such fixtures can be clips which are essentially long holes, but each includes a slot which runs the entire length of the hole, so that a heat pipe can be aligned with the slot and pushed into the hole as the sides of the slot deflect slightly.
Since the holding fixture is molded right into the structure of the carbon fiber impregnated case, the heat conducting carbon fibers are held in intimate contact with a heat pipe inserted into the holding fixture, and heat is easily conducted from the heat pipe to the carbon fibers. The fibers then conduct the heat throughout the entire top surface of the cover, and this considerable surface area acts as a convection surface to transfer the heat to the ambient air.
The heat of the components within the base section of the laptop computer is thereby moved to and disposed of from the one surface which until now has not been fully utilized, and that surface is still constructed of economical and desirable plastic as opposed to more costly metal.
FIG. 1 is a perspective view of the cover of a laptop computer with the display screen and a small portion of one edge wall removed for better viewing of the preferred embodiment of the invention.
FIGS. 2A-2D are a series of cross section views across the heat pipe holding fixture for alternate embodiments of the holding fixture of the invention.
FIG. 1 is a perspective view of cover 10 of a typical laptop computer (balance not shown) with the display screen and a small portion of one long edge wall 12 removed for better viewing of the interior of cover 10.
In order to endow the typical plastic used for laptop computer covers with heat conductive characteristics, at least large wall 14, which is behind the display screen (not shown) when the laptop is assembled, is formed of high thermal conductivity carbon fibers 16 within wall 14 with carbon fibers 16 oriented parallel to long edge wall 12. Thus, when cover 10 is open, wall 14 is oriented as shown in essentially a vertical plane, and carbon fibers 16 are generally horizontal.
In order to transfer heat to carbon fibers 16, heat pipe holding fixture 18 is integrated into cover 10, preferably by molding it into cover 10 when cover 10 is manufactured. The essential characteristic of holding fixture 18 is that it holds heat pipe 20 in good thermal contact so that at least a portion of the surface of heat pipe 20, along as much of its length as is practical, is located within heat conductive wall 14 and in contact with embedded carbon fibers 16. With that configuration, heat pipe 20 receives heat from thermal hinge 22 (not shown in its entirety) and transfers the heat to carbon fibers 16 which distribute the heat over the entire surface of heat conductive wall 14, from which it is transferred to the ambient air by natural convection.
The preferred location of holding fixture 18 is at the junction of heat dissipating wall 14 and one of the edge walls, 12, 13, 24, or 26, simply because there is usually more space there, since the display screen does not extend to the very edges of the cover. It is therefore possible to construct holding fixture 18 with greater volume in that location, and the greater volume aids in heat transfer to carbon fibers 16.
In the preferred embodiment shown in FIG. 1, holding fixture 18 is constructed as web 27 filling in the corner between heat dissipating wall 14 and edge wall 26. Web 27 includes hole 28 into which heat pipe 20 is mounted, and at least a portion of hole 28 is intersected by a part of cover 10 which includes carbon fibers 16 so that thermal contact is established between heat pipe 20 and fibers 16. It can easily be appreciated that, although it is not vital for the function of the invention, it improves heat transfer to and from cover 10 somewhat and is much easier to construct if all of cover 10, including web 27, is formed with embedded carbon fibers.
FIGS. 2A-2D are a series of cross section views across the length of the heat pipe holding fixture which depict alternate embodiments of the holding fixture. FIG. 2A is a cross section of the preferred embodiment shown in FIG. 1 with hole 28 located partly within wall 14 and partly within web 27. Hole 28 is dimensioned so that the heat pipe used fits tightly within it to provide a junction across which heat is transferred with minimum temperature differential. The carbon fibers within wall 14 are essentially oriented perpendicular to the length of hole 28 and at least some of the fibers are adjacent to hole 28.
FIGS. 2B and 2C are alternate embodiments of FIG. 2A in which slots 30 and 32 are added to provide a means by which a heat pipe can more easily be inserted into hole 28 by deflecting the edges of the slot as the heat pipe is inserted.
FIG. 2D shows a somewhat different holding fixture 34 in which curved opposed surfaces 36 and 38 are shaped to deflect and to fit around a heat pipe which can be inserted into position between deflecting surfaces 36 and 38, so that the surfaces separate slightly and maintain compression on the heat pipe. Holding fixture 34 has an advantage in that it does not require a corner structure such as web 27, and can therefore be positioned at any location along wall 14 which may be required by the location of other components.
The present invention thereby provides an apparatus for easily disposing of additional heat from a laptop computer by approximately doubling the surface available for natural convection cooling of the laptop while still retaining the preferable non-metallic case structure. Furthermore, the fibers embedded within cover 14 can be of material other than carbon, for instance metal fibers, and can be electrically conductive as well as thermally conductive, so they aid in shielding the laptop computer from Electro-Magnetic Interference.
It is to be understood that the form of this invention as shown is merely a preferred embodiment. Various changes may be made in the function and arrangement of parts; equivalent means may be substituted for those illustrated and described; and certain features may be used independently from others without departing from the spirit and scope of the invention as defined in the following claims.
For example, heat pipe 20 can be located along a long edge wall 12 or 13 of cover 10 and carbon fibers 16 would therefore be oriented parallel to shorter edge walls 24 and 26.

Pretty Treasures
Sure makeovers are fun, but sometimes it's the small touches — the pretty bits — that really bring a place to life. And you know what? They can be cheap and easy to do! Adding that little something can do wonders — you don't always need an overhaul. Here are a few tricks from my home:
We all love those simple clear glass lamps made popular by Ralph Lauren and his ilk, but here is an affordable version. It's the Ljusås Usta from Ikea ($70) and I switched out the shade for another Ikea model to get a shape I liked better. I love the cloth-covered cord and how it twists inside.
You know I love vintage, and silver is one of my favs! Old silver like this vase can be found at junk shops for a song and used in so many ways. I'm especially loving the grimy tarnished look these days paired with fresh blooms in the bathroom, but it can also look quite posh when polished up. When the flowers fade it makes an elegant and unexpected toothbrush holder.
We all know the importance of being green and practicing the three Rs. Save any pretty little bottles and use them for a fresh display like this one. It's so easy to break up one little bunch of flowers from the corner store into bottles like this. It really makes each flower look more important and you can spread them out along a table or mantelpiece.
The entranceway of my apartment building was looking a little rough and it didn't help when people kept taping notes onto the wall for other residents to see. I used an inexpensive corkboard, some leftover wallpaper, ribbon and my printer to make a welcoming bulletin board.
Now, residents and guests are greeted with a cheery notice wall and a little colour and design. It's fun and makes me smile when I come home instead of rolling my eyes!
Display your stuff! I have an issue with collecting and I'm trying to stop. But since I like the things I've collected, I'm going to show them off. This entirely functional tableau in my kitchen is made up of pasta bowls from Ikea, café au lait bowls from Dollarama (yes, $1!), and a vintage plate from my mom's house. We always ate our birthday cake off this little beauty. Bottom line — all very cheap!
Old-school art is another trick of mine. I look for little oil paintings, sketches and even paint by numbers like this one at thrift shops. It seems like everyone was an amateur artist back in the day, and these humble little works add personality and wit. Oh, and if you like the painting but hate the frame (which happens 85% of the time for me) just tape off the artwork and paint the frame white!
I love a potted plant in a terracotta pot but I think they're that much cuter with a little vintage saucer underneath. I pick these up at garage sales and throw them under my potted plants to catch extra water.
Remember to add those layers and details and your place will sing with style in no time!

Status Of Indoor Pool Building In Presque Isle To Be Debated After Closing
Now that the Presque Isle indoor pool is officially closed, there's one question that remains to be answered. That question is, what's going to happen to the building now?
The building is owned by the city, the property is owned by the Northern maine Fairgrounds. The assessment department at city hall says the building is valued at $458,700 dollars. Now what's to come of the building is yet to be determined, but there will be a council meeting on Monday 92/3/14) where the possibilities will be discussed.
The council had directed the department of parks and rec to look at 3 different options.
Chris Beaulieu, Director of Presque isle Rec&Parks Department says, " The first one was to reach out to the Northern Maine fair and to see about their interest in assuming – taking over the facility."
But Fair grounds officials have already said they're not interested in the building. Beaulieu says that's understandable since there are costs to keeping it maintained.
Beaulieu, "The second was to put out a request for proposals to find if there's another organization or individual that's interested in doing the same."
The third option Beauieu says, is to put bids out to have the facility demolished. The pool opened in 1978, and he says he'd like to see it re-used somehow, but doesn't think that's likely. As far as Monday's council meeting goes.
Beaulieu says, "Well pretty much we're going to update the council as far what we know with our conversations with the fair, and how we're going to proceed with the other two options that we're working on."
Meanwhile, the cost for lessons and swim related activities will remain the same as they were at the indoor pool, but will now be at UMPI's Gentile Hall.

3 Tips for Managing Large Numbers of SQL Server Jobs
|By: Greg Robidoux | Read Comments (5) | Related Tips: 1 | 2 | 3 | More > SQL Server Management Studio
The SQL Server management tools offer a lot of hidden features, but finding all of these features is sometimes done by accident or by necessity to get a particular job done. One particular feature that would be helpful is to assign shortcuts for particular stored procedures that you run quite frequently. By default SQL Server offers default shortcuts such as Alt+F1 (sp_help), Ctrl+1 (sp_who) and Ctrl+2 (sp_lock). How can you assign your own frequently used stored procedures to shortcut keys?
In the query tool you have the ability to assign keyboard shortcuts for stored procedures that you run frequently. By default SQL Server assigns some of the most common tasks as such sp_help, sp_who and sp_lock to certain key combinations. But in addition to these 3 predefined keyboard shortcuts SQL Server also offers you the ability to assign some of your own favorite stored procedures.
To access the screen below, open a query window and select from the menu Tools -> Options and then select Keyboard under the Environment node.
To access the screen below, open query analyzer and select from the menu Tools -> Customize...
How to assign a key
At this point you just need to enter the stored procedure that you want to assign to the keyboard shortcut. By default SQL Server will follow the same rules for finding the stored procedure as when using the query windows. If the stored procedure is not found it will give you an error stating that the stored procedure could not be found
You can also specify the database where the stored procedure exists such as:
Here is an example where these two stored procedures have been assigned to a shortcut key. To run these you just need to issue the correct keyboard combination such as Ctrl+3 or Ctrl+4.

Ellen, we have "query.custom?" tags for assign shortcut for custom queries...
but the problem on my end is that ... how can assign the tags "query.custom?" the value which they will execute?
Kindly share your favor for this issue?

Scarborough foundation funds fun for children with disabilities
SCARBOROUGH — It would be hard to imagine a better morning for a bike ride.
As sunshine splashed over Memory Lane, Coleman and Annie Nee took turns riding a tricycle July 20 on the quiet dead end street, cheered on by family and friends.
"It was cool. They enjoyed it, no doubt," Dickie Nee said about what was no ordinary summer ride.
Coleman, 15, and Annie, 10, took turns riding an adaptive tricycle with adjustable seats and pedals, all-terrain tires, a backrest, storage tray and handbrakes. At times they were guided by their father Dickie, and cheered on by their mother, Katie Nee.
At times they rode alone, surrounded by the Nees, occupational therapist Stephanie Leonhartt and physical therapist Dora Gough.
"I am thrilled and touched and choked up," Gough said. "To see Coleman pushing up that hill gave me a lump in my throat."
The tricycle, made by New York-based Rifton Equipment, costs about $2,500, and is not covered by insurance plans. Money for the tricycle came from the Robbie Foundation, established by a Scarborough couple determined to help families who need adaptive equipment and services for children with developmental disabilities.
Coleman Nee, who is entering Scarborough High School in the fall, has cerebral palsy, scoliosis, cognitive impairments, asthma, emphysema and one lung. The first part of his summer was spent in the hospital breathing through a ventilator, Dickie Nee said.
Annie Nee, entering Scarborough Middle School in the fall, has Rett Syndrome, a rare genetic disorder affecting her nervous system and causing developmental problems. She also has scoliosis and hip dysplasia. Last fall, she participated in clinical trials at Children's Hospital in Boston testing the effectiveness of hormonal treatments for Rett.
Both children needed more coaxing to get off the tricycle than climbing on it, and Dickie Nee teasing faked pain as his daughter squeezed his fingers after her ride.
"Oww, oww," he said, beaming the entire time.
Robert and Lynne Gierie founded the Robbie Foundation a little more than two years ago. It is named for their son, a former classmate of Coleman Nee, who has cerebral palsy.
The school connection, and a foundation application packet compiled by Gough and Leonhartt, made the tricycle a reality, Katie Nee said.
"It's real now. This is what the Robbie Foundation is all about," Lynne Gierie said as the Nees rode.
The Nees are a large family that has seen some misfortune. The couple raised seven children, and their son Seamus died in 2003 in a car accident shortly after Annie was diagnosed with Rett.
The chance to see her brother and sister spend more time outside thrilled Bridie Nee.
"It's really awesome," she said. "They can get outside with their friends."
The exercise is a clear benefit, but Gierie and Gough said the chance for children like Coleman and Annie to spend time with peers is critically important.
"Our goal is to see kids immersed in communities," Gierie said.
Since registering the foundation as a nonprofit in May 2010 and earning $2,000 in a jewelry sale at their home off Route 22, Lynne Gierie said the Robbie Foundation has provided equipment to at least 30 applicants. Some items may be as inexpensive as $80, and one adaptive lift cost about $5,000, she said.
Fundraising events expanded to include a golf tournament in September at Nonesuch River Country Club, an October gala at the Landing at Pine Point and a $15 cookbook available on the foundation website.
Increased attention creates increased generosity and need, Gierie said. Each quarter, a foundation committee reviews applications; requests average about $1,500.
Gierie said she knows there are at least $3,000 of requests already received for review, all from Maine families. A long-term foundation goal is to expand services through New England.
Applications for assistance require three letters from therapists or doctors outlining the needs and how the service or equipment will help a child. Gierie said applications typically come from service providers, but requests from parents are always welcome.
"We have not had to refuse any requests so far, but we may have to prioritize," she said. "It is clear to us there are a lot of unmet needs out there."
Not all needs are met as publicly as last week's presentation to Coleman and Annie Nee, but Gierie said her satisfaction remains consistent.
"The gratification is definitely the feedback we get from kids," she said. "Just the smiling faces."

The New Zealand international, who sprained an ankle in training earlier this month, was operated on at a London hospital.
The operation was a success but, according to a statement on the West Ham website, "no timescale has yet been set for a return to first-team action".
The club's head of sports science and sports medicine Andy Rolls said: "Winston had an operation on his ankle injury to stabilise the joint. This procedure went well.
"He will now convalesce for a few days before starting his rehabilitation."
Reid's fellow defenders James Collins and Joey O'Brien withdrew from international duty this month, but Sam Allardyce is hopeful both will be fit to face Chelsea on Saturday.
Razvan Rat is a doubt after suffering a hamstring injury while away with Romania.
Watch West Ham take on Chelsea live on Sky Sports 1 at 5.30pm this Saturday

Watch the hottest amateur straight guys jack off alone and together. You won�t believe what we get these normally hetero studs to do for the camera.
Turn down the thermostat because CircleJerkBoys.com turns up the heat with none other than Gavin Waters, and freshly arrived from the west coast, Dylan Roberts. Gavin is lying in bed and is tugging on his cock when Dylan comes knocking wondering what's taking him so long? Apparently there's more than basketball on Gavin's mind and he blushes as he confesses he wants to play with something else as he pulls Dylan into bed. They start to make out as they get this game going. Dylan licks at Gavin's pecs and smooth body as his own clothes get peeled off. Gavin''s body is defined and Dylan pulls his uncut cock out of one of the holes in Gavin's jeans. Not just fashionable, these jeans are functional as well as Dylan gets a mouthful of cock. They then get on the bed and into a hot 69 so that Gavin can return the favor. He works Dylan's rock hard cock while Dylan continues nursing on his. All this foreplay is just getting these two hornier for a lot more than just oral. Dylan suits up and sits

Computer science might soon become as much part of the American public school curriculum as geometry, chemistry, American literature have traditionally been if Code.org has anything to say about it.
Code.org, a one-year-old non-profit working to increase the availability of computer science courses in U.S. public schools, has announced today that it is partnering with 30 public school districts across the nation, including three of the top 10 largest in the country. These partnerships mean that Code.org's efforts will reach over 2 million students, representing 5 percent of all U.S. public school students.
Code.org was founded by brothers Hadi Partovi and Ali Partovi, Silicon Valley veterans and angel investors, a little over a year ago, and its donors include Bill Gates, Jack Dorsey, Ron Conway, Mark Zuckerberg, and many others. The organization has created an online portal through which students can take computer science lessons, and it also helps public schools offer computer science courses by training their current teachers in the organization's curriculum. It also works with policy makers on establishing computer science as a core and important subject and was behind the well publicized "Hour of Code" campaign last December.

LONGMONT, Colo. (AP) - A man suspected of stealing an SUV with a 4-year-old child inside and then carjacking two other vehicles during a high-speed chase near Denver is under arrest.
The suspect was arrested after fleeing the car, slipping on ice in a shopping center and failing to clear a fence this morning.
Soon after the sport utility vehicle was reported stolen earlier in the morning from a gas station, television helicopters spotted a vehicle matching that description speeding along Interstate 25. After about a half hour, the driver stopped, abandoned that car, and carjacked a minivan, taking off in it the wrong way on the highway.
Later, after apparently losing a tire on the minivan, he sideswiped another vehicle and threw the driver out of the car.

Hang tight!
Recipe by Raquel Teixeira
"This is a Portuguese classic dish that originates from the island of Madeira. It involves simple ingredients but delivers amazing flavors. This is a regular staple in the summer, and the first meal I have when I travel to my home country, Madeira. You can add whole garlic cloves, sliced white onions, and red peppers in between the beef on the skewers. Also, for extra delight, you can do it how they do it in the restaurants. They hang the beef on long metal skewers with a chunk of butter on top that melts down the skewer."
Hmm. None of these ingredients are on sale today.

3/4 cup
red wine
8 cloves
bay leaves, crumbled
2 tablespoons
coarse salt
freshly ground pepper to taste
3 pounds
beef sirloin steak, cut into cubes
bamboo skewers, soaked in water for 60 minutes
Pretty good. But I would cut the salt in half. It was a bit salty.
Sorry to say this was disappointing. I found the recipe in allrecipes magazine & bought expensive sirloin from a good store before I noticed the lack of reviews. Still I followed the recipe to the letter - well per the magazine recommendations. (whole bay leaves, reduce salt, buy sirloin tip, and use metal skewers) While the flavor was good, the seasoning remained very mild & the meat was not tender. My husband and I ate a few pieces each, put the leftovers in the 'fridg.
5 Ratings
The meat was so tender and the flavor was so good. Unfortunately it's was too salty. I'd make it again and cut the salt in half.
This is a good recipe. I have eaten Espetadas my whole life. The secret is in the length of time the meat is marinated for. The longer the better. Also, use rock salt and/or Kosher salt.
Very good. I marinated overnight and the beef turned out very flavorful and extremely tender.

Baseball's Leesman Shines In Major-League Debut For White Sox
Charlie Leesman fanned eight batters in his major league debut against Minnesota on Friday night.
Aug. 12, 2013
CINCINNATI - Former Xavier standout pitcher Charlie Leesman made his major-league debut for the Chicago White Sox in the nightcap of a doubleheader with the Minnesota Twins.
Despite taking a no-decision in the contest, Leesman worked five innings allowing just one run. He struck out eight Twins and walked just five, while surrendering one run on four hits.
A native of Cincinnati (Elder HS), Leesman was a standout pitcher for the Musketeers before being selected by the White Sox in the 11th round of the 2008 MLB First-Year Player Draft. He posted a 2-6 record as Xavier's number one pitcher in 2008 and has steadily climbed throughout the minor leagues during his professional career.

Okay okay – we don't want Keven Federline to be killed, but we wouldn't mind if it he took his Britney bucks and hid out behind a rock for a few billion years. And we're obviously not the only ones! ET is reporting that the FBI and LAPD are "investigating legitimate leads on a contract hit on Kevin Federline's life." Holy crap! Apparently the FBI has been trying to alert the gold-digger than there is a possibility that his life is in danger. Let's put our investigative skills in action to figure out who could be out to snuff K-Fed – and where and how they might do the deed.

- Ex #1 Shar Jackson – anywhere in front of the paparazzi with the DVD of Britney & Kevin: Chaotic
- Ex #2 Britney Spears – in a gas station bathroom with a pair of hair-cutting shears (the Cheet-flavored finger prints would give it away)
- Sean Preston and Jayden James – on the playground with the booze Mommy puts in their bottles
