Paa-Ko Ridge golf professional David Muttitt fired a second round 71 at the PGA Championship at the Oak Hill Country Club in New York. Unfortunately, his first golf major only lasted two rounds as he did not make the cut.
Here are some quotes from Muttitt following his second round. The interview was conducted by the PGA.
Q. Two really solid rounds of golf?
DAVID MUTTITT: Yeah, I played good; I just had five bad holes yesterday. It was tough. It's like nothing else I have ever been a part of.
Q. What are your thoughts of the rain this morning?
DAVID MUTTITT: Oh, that was tough. It rained hard and then it would stop, and then it rained hard and then it stopped. Just like in Oregon, exactly the same, just warmer.
Q. Talk about the round specifically today.
DAVID MUTTITT: I mean, I struggled on the front nine, didn't hit it solid, but I made some good pars and a couple of good birdies. And then I played good on the back.
Bogeying 18 is a little bit frustrating, but you can't miss the fairways on those long par 4s.
Q. Talk about the experience. Was it everything you thought it was going to be?
DAVID MUTTITT: Yeah, and more. It's crazy. Just so many people it's unbelievable. You don't think about all the stuff that goes into it, running tournaments, myself. This is just nuts. I couldn't imagine.
Q. Not making the cut, but did you enjoy the whole experience?
DAVID MUTTITT: Yeah, absolutely. I mean, I'm disappointed because I played good enough to make the cut. I just had five terrible holes yesterday. Yeah, I mean, I had a great time.
Q. Is there a favorite story from this week that you are going to tell the people back home?
DAVID MUTTITT: I got to hit balls next to Tiger.

WBB Hosts Media Day Wednesday Afternoon
Oct. 30, 2013

RALEIGH, N.C. – Just a few days in advance of the first exhibition contest of the 2013-14 season, coaches and student-athletes from the NC State women's basketball program met with the media to discuss the upcoming season on Wednesday afternoon.
Head coach Wes Moore, associate head coach Nikki West, assistant coaches Gene Hill and Lindsay Edmonds joined junior guard Len'Nique Brown and senior center Markeisha Gatling at the event.
For photos from the event, please click here. For select quotes from the press conference and interviews, please see below:
Head Coach Wes Moore
Opening Statement:
We've got a challenging schedule ahead of us. We have Tulane in our non-conference schedule. We have LSU as well, and then we have our ACC schedule. We open and close our ACC schedule with two of the newcomers: Syracuse in our opening game at home and Notre Dame in our finale. That will be a great challenge. In between, you have the traditional rivals of the ACC.
On the incoming freshmen:
Jennifer Mathurin is from Canada and she is a forward-type player. She plays extremely hard and crashes the boards. She is very athletic and attacks the basket. She is capable of stepping out and shooting the three. As with a lot of freshmen, she needs to slow down a little on offense. That said, I would rather slow them down and pull them back than have to get them going.
Junior Guard Len'Nique Brown
On changes to upcoming season:
On the coaching transition:
Senior Center Markeisha Gatling
On improvement from last season:
On the four-out-and-one-in style of offense:

QuickFlix to support BB10
Saw this article looked interesting. Anyone know what Quickflix is lol ?
EDIT: looks like its for the Aussies. There version of netflix
Troubled movie-streaming company Quickflix has joined forces with troubled mobile vendor Research In Motion (RIM) to deliver video content on BlackBerry 10 OS devices in early 2013.
The subscription and pay-per-view movie-streaming service will be available through connected BlackBerry 10 OS L-Series and N-Series devices, according to Quickflix.
"We are delighted to be introducing our digital streaming to BlackBerry devices, as we continue to provide consumers with the most accessible streaming services in the market," Quickflix Chairman and CEO Stephen Langsford said in a statement.
The company is currently in financial strife, culling one-third of its workforce to cut costs, but that hasn't stopped it from expanding its services to new devices. This week, Quickflix announced partnerships with Humax and Kobo to stream content to internet-connected PVRs and new-generation e-readers, respectively.
RIM is also looking at a grim future if its upcoming BlackBerry 10 OS, which will be released next month, fails to gain any traction in the market. The vendor is struggling financially, haemorrhaging market share as consumers continue to rapidly adopt Apple iOS and Google Android mobile devices.Check out themidniteedition.wordpress.com for all the latest news and reviews on tech and gaming

State workers call it "use it or lose it," a practice in which departments try to spend every last penny rather than save for the good of the overall California budget.
It is a "perverse" dynamic of government spending, the state's Little Hoover Commission observed more than a decade ago. Department directors fear that Capitol budget writers see leftover funds as proof that too much money was authorized in the first place, possibly resulting in future cuts.
To avoid that outcome, departments spend on anything from extra paper clips to new computers before the fiscal year ends each June.
"It's clearly part of the culture and part of the tension that exists between the Department of Finance and agencies," said James P. Mayer, who serves as executive director of California Forward and previously examined the issue with the Little Hoover Commission.
At the state Department of Parks and Recreation, fourth-quarter pressure to exhaust general fund dollars led administrators to pursue an unauthorized buyout of vacation time and draw up last-minute "dummy" documents for a computer purchase, according to transcripts released last week from an internal investigation. That occurred even as Gov. Jerry Brown threatened to close 70 parks.
"With what we've seen from the parks scandal, when you have a use-it-or-lose-it philosophy, it tends to encourage efforts to hide money or spend everything on things you might not necessarily need," said Sen. Lois Wolk, D–Davis. "It's not a very good way of encouraging efficiency or innovation."
Employees interviewed for the state inquiry, as well as other state workers who contacted the Bee afterward, said they believe the use-it-or-lose-it practice exists well beyond parks.
"I think that's probably a thing in most state departments," Elsie Brenneman, budget officer at the parks department, said in a March interview with state attorneys. "If they have general fund, it's spend it or you're going to lose it."
Neither the Department of Finance nor the state controller's office tracks department general fund spending by month, making it difficult to know how extensive the practice is. Departments self-report information each year to fiscal offices and lawmakers.
Department of General Services purchase records reflect a spike in contracts initiated each June dating back at least to 2008. But the information is clouded by the fact that departments report contract data differently, said General Services spokesman Eric Lamoureux.
State lawmakers are responsible in the annual budget process for authorizing how much money each department receives, relying heavily on data and recommendations from the Department of Finance. If departments have money left over, they are supposed to return it to the general fund, said Finance Department spokesman H.D. Palmer.
State departments returned less money to the general fund as they faced across-the-board reductions in recent years, according to finance officials. In 2008-09, state departments returned a combined $150 million in a $90.9 billion general fund budget. That total fell to $64 million in 2009-10, followed by $10 million in 2010-11, years in which they faced overhead and employee cuts.
June expenses may not be waste
State budget experts say they believe departments have long attempted to spend all of their money by year's end. But they suggested it was not necessarily a sign of waste.
"A lot of it is going to be in the eye of the beholder," said Legislative Analyst Mac Taylor.
He said what occurred in the parks department "obviously shouldn't have happened." But he observed that another department might cut costs all year and responsibly buy new computers or copiers only if enough money remains at the end.
"Some may interpret that as, 'Oh, you're buying a copier on June 20 just to spend money,' whereas others may see it as an intended scheduled expense," Taylor said.
Michael Genest, who was finance director for former Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger and previously served as a budget administrator in state departments, said budget managers face the threat of penalties, including personal liability, if they spend more than authorized by lawmakers and the governor. They create a financial buffer throughout the year to avoid overspending, he said.
When Genest worked at the Department of Health Services more than a decade ago, scientists complained they had outdated laboratory equipment, he said. Genest compiled a list of items that were needed, and then his department bought them at the end of the year if enough money remained.
"It's a perfectly legitimate way to run your business," Genest said.
Still, Mayer said the pervasiveness caught him off guard when he was executive director of the Little Hoover Commission, a watchdog agency that has a budget below $1 million annually. He ended one year with tens of thousands of dollars left.
"Staff came in and said, 'How do you want to spend it?' " Mayer recalled. "I said, 'Why would we do that?' They said because our budget would be reduced if we give it back."
The commission ultimately returned the money. "The bottom line was, we just weren't going to jam the closet with paper clips," he said.
2-year budget cycle suggested
Finance officials say they take a holistic review of spending habits and consider whether a department had legitimate reasons for saving money one year.
Still, Mayer said, "there's kind of a spy vs. spy relationship between the line departments and the Department of Finance." He said one way to stop the practice would be to let departments retain what they save.
Mayer's California Forward organization has sponsored Proposition 31. Among other changes, it would create a two-year budget cycle, which he believes would allow more spending flexibility.
Palmer said the Department of Finance has directed budget managers to spend only on critical services and avoid new or expanded programs. Besides his office, he said department auditors, lawmakers, the Bureau of State Audits and the Legislative Analyst's Office serve as watchdogs of how departments spend.
Brown vetoed Wolk's "performance-based" budgeting bill last year requiring departments to show how their funding leads to specific outcomes, a change she believes would discourage the "use-it-or-lose-it" approach. That differs from the current budgeting practice of providing departments money based largely on what they previously received with adjustments for growth.
The governor has asked his departments to use outcome-based budgeting on a case-by-case basis, such as Caltrans' Mass Transportation Program, where 44 positions were deemed unnecessary, finance officials said.
Sen. Jean Fuller, R-Bakersfield, said the parks situation shows departments still have too much financial control.
"We have a lot of delegated authority for expenditures," she said, "yet we don't have a strong central oversight over how much they have in their accounts. They don't have to say why an expenditure makes sense."

"The management of labor improvement efforts by corporations are considered good and the management of labor improvements by workers is thugs!"
Good point.
Maybe I'm stating the obvious here, but have you thought about proofreading before posting blog entries on a news site: "the no-lift morning and afternoon drive times for Fleet Week were only 90 minutes -- 4:30 to 6 p.m. and 7:30 to 9 .m"?
Some private/public partnerships are needed to step in and fill the public funding void for vocational programs that prepare (not train) students to step into skilled labor occupations. Companies can't expect everything for nothing, and funding programs in high school and community colleges would probably be cheaper and less risky than hiring raw candidates.
As far as the trades being an appealing occupation- speaking as a software developer, who performed a number of unskilled labor jobs in my younger years- a skilled trade actually can be quite satisfying. Office jobs get unspeakably boring, and manual labor is the pits. Working to create or repair something with your hands and your mind, especially when in a climate-controlled building, can be a pretty good role. Plus, as a skilled trades person, you can command your own career and go independent, if desired. Not to mention the fact that you won't have several tens of thousands of dollars in student debt hanging over your head.
Good points, Peasant.
Will Chinese-Americans do? Or have they been to Oregonized?
Time to look at different models, this is too expensive for a mediocre Oregon University System education. Universities were never meant to be vocational schools, for career preparation. They need to get rid of the "pork" general education requirements. Future students should consider going to the mixed-bag community colleges for the first couple of years. And consider a career in one of the trades.
Meet me for Occupy Oswego Lake tomorrow at 3pm. Bring your inner tubes!
Come on, fellow peasants, let's turn it into Lake Havasu North for spring break!
Reading the comment on the Adrian Peterson link, you are reminded instantly of how annoying and whiny Sooners fans are.
Pretty decent idea. I'd maybe watch a little.
Caliexpat, dorydog brought up the specific cost of leasing grazing rights on public land. From what I have heard, it is very cheap and antiquated. You brought in a bunch of related, but separate costs of business.
The audacity of Mr. Nash to pay this cheap rent to the public, and then complain about a few wolves, shows that he might be as out of touch with the way things work as the "west-siders" are.
Sounds like the EPA and thus, we, are "lucky" the company is still in business to target for the remediation efforts.
I'd chip in for that effort.
I think an argument could be made that the Ducks' increased success the last 3 years has been due as much or more to better defensive play than in the past. The Ducks' offense has been quite good since Kelly came to town, even before he implemented his "system" as head coach. Not really disagreeing with the article, just discussing.
Its incredible, the sea-change in RB depth from a year or two ago. Could be a big issue. I think they should move Huff to the position.
With so many questions on offense, and a strong-looking defense, I would like to see the Ducks offense slow down next fall (ala 2007) and not handicap the D every game. Let the defense win the day for a change.
Probably not realistic suggestions, but I like the sound of them.
Aaron, if you see Chip, please tell him to move Huff to RB and Thomas can be a WR or hybrid.
Ohhh, somebody's in love!
Well, that's a mileage tax, combined with a gas tax, and an engine displacment tax. My point remains the same, concerning a mileage tax. And, if they are taking all these other factors (including congestion) into consideration, then they could account for eastern Oregon and greater mileage for necessary trips- since the fee will still be charged at the gas stations.
I agree with a lot of what you have said.
Start with the easiest and most effective- efficiency and conservation.
Plan for the long term- nuclear, and tidal power sure seems promising as a partial provider.
Fill in the gaps as needed- natural gas.
Hope for a miracle- cold fusion :)
I would hardly call hydro power green, when you consider the impact on riverine ecosystems. Renewable and low CO2-producing? Yes very much so, at least after you have poured the concrete.

The 1850s saw many improvements and expansions to the mansion's existing conveniences. By this time many Americans who had gaslight wondered how they had ever lived without it. President Zachary Taylor ordered an enlargement of the gas system into the White House's offices, family quarters, and basement. Millard Fillmore determined that the house should be comfortable in any season and had the heating system improved. The White House of Franklin Pierce came to represent the best domestic technology of its time (1853). The heating plant was modified again with the addition of a hot-water furnace that was more efficient and healthful because the air was warmed directly by coils rather than "cooked" from outside the air chamber. Pierce also made significant improvements to the plumbing and toilet facilities, including the installation of a bathroom on the second floor with the first permanent bathing facilities. The new bathroom was luxurious in having both hot and cold water piped in. Before 1853 bathing on the second floor required portable bathtubs, and kettles of hot water had to be hauled up from the existing east wing bathing room.

The South Carolina Gators jammed the hopes of the New York New Heights this week, and brought the AAU Division I National Boys 13U championship trophy home to Pawleys Island.
The USBA Division I national championships were held in Myrtle Beach last week.
The Gators, a team comprised of players from Pawleys Island, Myrtle Beach, and North Carolina turned up the heat in the second half of the championship game overshadowing the New Heights for a 72-39 win. We got really hot in the second half of the game, a very proud head coach Stan Kowalewski said on Wed., we hit the court after half time and had a 15 point run.
The Gators had quite a bit of basketball to play before it reached the final championship game.
It played eight games total, with the only loss going to the Georgia Ballers, 65-64 in overtime.
Commenting on the loss to Georgia, Kowalewski stated, We got a chance to play them again in bracket play, and our boys settled in and beat them 49-40.
Teams were randomly assigned to a six-team pool. Each team played four Pool Play games.
Once Pool Play was complete, teams were seeded based on Pool Play record and placed in one of three divisions for Bracket Play.
For a given pool, the first and second place teams competed in the National Division Bracket.
The third and fourth place teams competed in the American Division Bracket and the fifth and sixth place team competed in the Classic Division Bracket.
The format allowed teams to compete for a USBA National Championship against teams with a similar talent level.
Kowalewski credits the win to what he describes as a guard oriented team.
We had to play the Georgia Ballers twice, we were pretty evenly matched size wise, but our guys were much more athletic.
He also pointed out that the team as a whole had an amazing number of steals, which caused scoring problems for their opponents.

The Birth of Franklin. Washington Post: After the assassination of Martin Luther King, Jr., Harriet Glickman, a white California mother wrote to cartoonist Charles Schultz urging him to introduce a black character to his "Peanuts" cartoon strips. When Schultz demurred, saying he was afraid "it would look like we were patronizing our Negro friends," Glickman got two of her "Negro friends" who backed the idea to write to Schultz. A short time later, Schultz introduced Franklin. Oh, yes, & strips showing Franklin in an integrated! classroom upset Southern editors, according to Glickman.

If you can memorize & learn to use the University of New Hampshire's long list of "bias-free language," you can be the most politically-correct person in your neighborhood. Via Jonathan Chait. ...
... CW Etiquette Tip: calling out your friends for using outmoded terms like "overweight" & "rich" is not politically correct. Simply try to steer the conversation in a more "inclusive" direction. So if your friend says to you, "My rich neighbor got so overweight he has to use a wheelchair now," you say, "Oh, that person of material wealth has become a person of size who is wheelchair mobile? Wow! He's your neighbor? I remember him when he was a person experiencing homelessness who lacked advantages that others have." It sounds so natural, your friend will never realize you've corrected his biased, dated stereotypes. ...
... UPDATE: Turns out the university's president is biased against the bias-free language guide & he was unaware of its existence until this week. Also, a Republican state legislator is "outraged" & finds the guide a good excuse to cut funding for the state university. Naturally. Thanks to MAG for the lead.

We will remind you that we have been fighting for black civil rights for 50 years (Bernie Sanders). We will tell you all lives matter (Hillary Clinton, Martin O'Malley). We will tell you that white people are responsible for expanding your rights (Hillary Clinton). We will deny your accusations (Every one of us). And all the while, we will be highly insulted, even if we don't tell you to fuck off. Because white people's feelings matter. And, after all we've done for you, we can't believe you would accuse us of racism.

Lloyd Grove of the Daily Beast: NBC News Chairman Andy Lack is replacing MSNBC's Ed Schultz with -- Chuck Todd. [CW: Excellent decision! Let's change "MSNBC" to "VPN" -- "Village People's Network."] "The only programs that appeared safe from disruption were Morning Joe..., hosted by Joe Scarborough and Mika Brzezinski; Hardball ... with Chris Matthews; and The Rachel Maddow Show at 9 p.m. Those programs have performed respectably...." ...
We live in a time when much of the corporate media regards politics as a baseball game or a soap opera. Ed Schultz has treated the American people with respect by focusing on the most important issues impacting their lives.... I am very disappointed that Comcast [the parent company of NBC & MSNBC] chose to remove Ed Schultz from its lineup. We need more people who talk about the real issues facing our country, not fewer.... At a time when a handful of large, multi-national corporations own our major media outlets, I hope they will allow voices to be heard from those who dissent from the corporate agenda. -- Sen. Bernie Sanders
Washington Post: "The latest update from NASA's Kepler space telescope — designed to spot distant exoplanets — adds more than 500 new possible planets to the fray. That's in addition to the 4,175 planets already found by Kepler. And of those 500 new potential planets, scientists say, a dozen could be remarkably Earth-like. That means they're less than twice as large as Earth, are potentially rocky and are at the right distance from their host stars to harbor liquid water." ...

Fired California University of Pennsylvania president Angelo Armenti Jr., in an undated written statement, defended himself against what he called the "most damaging of the false allegations" presented in an audit critical of the school's financial practices.
Mr. Armenti has not publicly commented on the results of the 25-page report released by state officials on Thursday -- one day after his firing. State officials have not said whether the audit and the firing were related.
The audit, spurred by a series of anonymous complaints sent to the State System of Higher Education, called into question several university expenditures, including debt acquired during the construction of a new $59 million convocation center. It also questioned whether the university and the Foundation for California University were as separate as state law requires and whether net profits from housing facilities were being improperly transferred to the school's fundraising foundation.
In a written statement provided Friday to the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette by a university source, Mr. Armenti attempted to rebut two of what he called the "rather serious errors of fact, analysis and conclusion" contained in the report.
Auditors preparing the report found that California University development employees, who are paid with university funds, solicited donations for the Foundation for California University and prepared or sent out contribution acknowledgements and tax information.

Is NASA really in an open revolt over climate change?
Much, and more, has been made of a letter released yesterday in which 49 former NASA astronauts, engineers and scientists admonish the space agency for taking a high-profile stance on climate change: namely that it's happening due to human activity, and that it could have catastrophic consequences for the planet.

La Salle County finds itself surfing a wave of prosperity

Local residents partake in a barbecue lunch during the grand opening ceremonies at the newly restored La Salle County Courthouse in Cotulla on January 26, 2013.
COTULLA — The newly restored La Salle County Courthouse opened over the weekend with a flourish — speeches, guided tours and free barbecue.
When the project started a few years ago, the $8 million budget seemed enormous in a county that had seen little meaningful construction activity in decades.
Now, it's a tiny slice of the buzz.
"We've been out there four years. At that time it was one of the biggest projects in the county," La Salle County Judge Joel Rodriguez Jr. said. "Now it's a drop in the bucket."
La Salle County, traditionally known for its trophy deer, now has a reputation for producing crude oil.
Last year, more than 17.6 million barrels of crude oil came out of La Salle County, up from about 6.3 million barrels in 2011, according to the Texas Railroad Commission.
And it has more rigs drilling wells right now than any other county in the Eagle Ford region. There were 34 rigs operating in La Salle County as of Jan. 25, up from 31 rigs the same week the year before, according to the Baker Hughes Rig Count.
Cotulla, the county seat, has 10 hotels newly constructed or with plans under review. Streets that didn't exist before the boom have names such as Oilfield Lane and Eagle Ford Drive. EOG Resources, the biggest operator in the Eagle Ford, has moved into town.
And south of the city, Anadarko Petroleum Corp. is building a 156-acre gas processing plant that will process 200 million cubic feet of natural gas liquids each day, but can be expanded to double that capacity. The Gardendale Railroad has grown from virtually nothing to more than 135,000 feet of track.
So while the tan brick 1931 Moderne-style courthouse remains an important community touchstone, its renovation budget pales when compared to oil-related projects.
Bob Zachariah, CEO at the Austin-based HotelWorks Development LLC, expects to break ground around April on a hotel in Cotulla, drawn by both the oil and gas work and the planning the city had done for growth.
"There's land available in every small town," Zachariah said. "Look at what's happening on both sides of I-35 in and near Cotulla. You can see the birth of an urban center. Cotulla will become a sustainable small town. That gives it a tax base. It gives the municipality a long-term structure as well."
Annie Garcia, chief appraiser in La Salle County, said the county's taxable value rose from $881 million in 2011 to more than $2.3 billion last year.
"I was used to saying millions and now we're going into the billions," Garcia said.
City Administrator Larry Dovalina has been juggling plans for travel centers, strip malls and neighborhoods.
"We have the first subdivision in, like, 30 years," he said.
Because no one at the city had the technical skills or certifications to do code enforcement or construction inspections, Dovalina uses retirees from Laredo, where he once worked, who can come in as consultants.
"That skill is not in the community," he said. "You previously didn't have construction going on. All the sudden, in the last two years, we've had construction for the first time."
RV parks and so-called man camps for worker housing have been given temporary three-year permits.
"It's a special-use permit. We did temporary permits rather than change zoning," Dovalina said. "That takes care of it for the near term and it limits the impact over time."
The city also purchased two blocks and may build a new city hall on the spot. It's seeking landmark status for its historic downtown district. But Dovalina said the city is paying cash for projects or issuing short-term debt, figuring that it can't rely on the oil and gas industry to keep booming forever.
"It's a free market, but we wonder what will happen once the play is over," Dovalina said. "Because just like there's a boom, there's a bust."

Tips for implementing solar energy into your lifestyle
Solar panels for home are one of the most practical gadgets to save power and energy. Basically, these panels use the simple logic of solar energy i.e. converting suns energy into energy and helping you save on electricity. There are different ways in which you can implement solar energy into the home, both for your home's overall electricity as well as your swimming pool.
Solar energy can be used in so many different ways in our everyday lifestyle. We just need to take out the time and energy to take the first step. For instance, pool solar heating panels are a great investment for those with backyard pools. We all love pools in the backyard, but they can get pricey. A solar panel pool will help reduce the power and heating costs.
Check out the eco-friendly solar heating system in-ground kit that comes with a 4′ x 20′ solar panel and a by-pass valve (to turn system on/off). This provides free heat for your above-ground or in-ground pool with a solar heating module. The free solar heat keeps you comfortable all season long!
The idea of investing in solar devices is to save money and energy in the long run. It is true that the onetime investment cost may seem like an added expenditure right now, but if you do the math, then there's so much you will be saving over the years! Some other simple tips for implementing solar energy in our everyday lives include-
- Use solar geysers or heaters during the colder seasons. Again, they provide great heating without costing a fortune.
- Opt for solar lights for backyards and driveway. These lights turn on automatically at dusk and switch off at dawn. They too use solar energy, which means better lighting and security for the home, at minimal costs. You can also get solar patio lights
- Opt for solar chargers for your cell phones, laptops, etc.

Corporate Social Responsibility
Corporate Social Responsibility means that companies in addition to the profit motive (profit) also consider the impact of their activities on the environment (planet) and that in attention to human aspects within and outside the company (people). It is therefore a balance between people, planet and profit. Ensior is convinced that this balance leads to better results for both the company and society.
It is important to Ensior to contribute to sustainability. For a few examples:
The laptops the consultants use meet the energy-efficiency requirements of the EU Energy Star label.
Ensior encourages the use of public transport by its consultants.
73% of all consultants already driving a car with a Green Energy Label.
Social responsibility
The Ensior's only products are the services it offers to its customers. Ensior also takes its social responsibility by having an aid organisation as War Child selflessly benefit from the expertise of Ensior. Ensior has helped War Child to gain more insight into its internal processes. This insight provides the aid organisation with the necessary relief handles to further improve the quality of her work. Read more about Ensior's aid to War Child.
Another aid organisation Ensior supports is LEO Project, a non-profit organisation with the objective to improve the lives of people and wildlife in Sri Lanka. For LEO Project Ensior donated the shipment of 155 computers to Sri Lanka.

Recipe by Patrice G. Ward
"A Barbadian spin on cucumber salad, almost always served as a side dish with main meals. Also used (with the addition of parsley and a touch of allspice) as the 'pickle' in 'soused' meats (pork, lamb, beef/oxtails, chicken). Fresh lime juice is the key to this delicious salad."
Hmm. None of these ingredients are on sale today.

1 large
cucumber, thinly sliced
sweet onion, thinly sliced
red bell pepper, thinly sliced
2 tablespoons
fresh lime juice (about 1 lime)
salt to taste
1 dash
hot pepper sauce, or to taste
2 tablespoons
hot water
we really liked this recipe tho i added 'quite' abit more hot sauce (chipotle tabasco), and lime juice and also sprinkled in some course ground black pepper and there was plenty of marinade for the veggies...i served it with bbq'd fish and baked taters...will forsure make it again...thanks for the recipe...
As is there is not too much flavor going on. I ended up adding a LOT more hot pepper sauce but still felt it lacked something which is probably vinegar. Growing up in Kansas City I rarely every had a raw cuke without it being marinated in vinegar of some kind but not everyone likes vinegar either so my only other suggestion would be to add a fresh herb of your choice and that would definitely kick it up a notch. I will make this again but with tweaks.

Not a bad cucumber salad, a bit different from what I'm used to, I feel it needed something, I did add a extra dash of hot pepper sauce, a little bit more water. There wasn't any juice to this salad, so I wasn't sure extactly if that was right. It's seasoned for sure, dressed??? I'm not so sure. But it's a decent light summery salad for sure. Do try. Will make again and play around with the flavor more. Thanks
i have made my own version of this salad for my family. the addition of fresh parley, some onion and maybe more lime juice for a tangy flavour. shredding the cucumber finely may also help in the absorption of the flavors. Bye
oh and ps. leaving the cucumber until it turns soft: it has something to do with osmosis. i'm 14 so i'm not a pro but i'm barbadian so i hope i helped
Of course I added two small limes instead of juice from one. It just didn't seem like enough from one. I also put in more Hot Sauce (Louisiana Hot Sauce) and put in some pepper and a pinch of salt. Didn't have a red bell pepper, so I added a couple slices of tomato to add to the mix. Added a purple onion...and a LOT at that! It was good but I for sure want to try and mix it up a bit for the next times. A great afternoon snack for work and very easy to make!
Just not a lot of flavor. Many other cucumber salad recipes out there that are loaded with taste. As other reviewers suggested, I added extra Tabasco sauce, some freshly ground pepper, and even a littlle bit of chopped cilantro, but it wasn't enough to take it beyond blandness. Served with chicken scallopini, sesame green beans, freshly cooked apples, and strawberry shortcake for dessert. It's a very colorful dish with nice presentation, but beyond that, I don't think there's much to recommend it.

involve the efficiency of algorithms, particularly
for problems in combinatorial optimization and graph theory.
These algorithms have been applied to study data
security, stable matching, network flow, matroid optimization,
string/pattern matching problems, molecular sequence analysis, and optimization problems
in population-scale genomics. Currently, I am
focused on string and combinatorial problems that arise in
computational biology and bioinformatics. I served as chair of the computer science

Rahm is not waiting for the courts to decide. He announces an unconstitutional agreement.
When I spoke with my State Senator Iris Martinez last November about her vote on pension theft, her answer was a strange one.
"I'm against the bill, but I'm voting for it. We should let the courts decide."
Senate Bill 1 passed. Unions and organizations representing the state's public employees and retirees have filed suit. Those suits have all been consolidated and will be heard in Sangamon County which is Springfield. No injunction is anticipated. The law will go into effect this summer and is expected to be heard by the Illinois Supreme Court in about a year.
You would think that any other attempts to contradict the pension protection clause of the Illinois Constitution would be put on pause until the courts decide.
You would think that. But you would be wrong.
Chicago's Rahm Emanuel is not waiting for any stinkin' court. Apparently Rahm and some city unions have come to a pension agreement to cut pension benefits.
But there remains no agreement with the city's fire, police or teachers union.
In a statement, the We Are One Chicago union coalition said the framework is "an unconstitutional approach that makes onerous cuts to the pension benefits of nearly 50,000 active and retired public servants."
Three of the biggest unions in Chicago are not part of this framework: police, fire and teachers. The police and fire unions stand to get a nearly $600 million increase in their pension payments next year.
Susan kozloff permalinkApril 1, 2014 7:42 am
If unions agree is it still unconstitutional?
I understand that park district union were said to agree but when the pension change was revealed union said they did not agree and we're said to sue. Any updates on that situation?
Elma permalinkApril 1, 2014 9:01 am
Agreed that it's interesting that there's no stay/injunction. Have to wonder why, especially if the decision might not be until next year after the time frame another COLA under the old law could be dispensed. Have to wonder if this lack of an injunction a common legal procedure or politics being played out Too bad the decision probably won't come down before November's elections. If the Supremes were to rule prior to the election, depending on the decision, it could have major ramifications on election results. I'd hate to think that the timing of the decision is intentional–guess my paranoia has been enhanced by pension politics!

This is a really good article concerning union negotiations and individual employee rights concerning the Water Reclamation pension reform bill.
Rick Klimes permalinkApril 1, 2014 10:14 am
For some reason, the link I posted earlier won't open to the story. Click on this link, then click on "Chris Wetterich" in the article.
Anon permalinkApril 1, 2014 10:36 am
On the one hand, SB1 said the pensions were not subject to collective bargaining. (We can't go on strike about pension theft).
Yet the legislators think it is OK for them to say "we talked to the union, therefore it has been agreed to on your behalf."
Contradictory right from the get-go. Unless the judges are crooked, I don't see how this will survive the court challenge.
Arthur 56 permalinkApril 2, 2014 12:23 pm
Its interesting that the only source of revenue that Rahm talks about is raising property taxes. What about a percentage of a
Chicago casino profits. Or better yet, a very small tax on every transaction at the Chicago Board of Trade. Didn't we give them a break to stay in Chicago? I don't think a penny tax on every transaction is going to keep them from making millions.

Born in Norwich, December 14th, 1761; educated at Yale-College where he graduated in 1781; was preceptor of the Academy in Albany, in 1782, and in 1783 become a Tutor in Yale-College, and held that situation three years; read law with Judge Chauncey, and was admitted to the Bar, in New Haven county, in 1786, and settled in the city of New-Haven, in the practice of the law. In 1790, he was appointed clerk of the District and Circuit Courts of the United States, for Connecticut, and held that office until the fall of 1803, when having been elected a representative in the eighth Congress of the United States, he resigned his office of clerk; attended the two sessions of that Congress, and declining a re-election, he was, in 1805, again appointed clerk of the district and circuit courts by Judge Law, and was, in 1806 removed by his successor, Judge Edwards. In the fall of the same year, he was appointed an Associate Judge of the Superior Court, and of the Supreme Court of Errors, and continued in office until superseded, in May 1817.
He then returned to the Bar, for a short period, until his son became established in practice in the same county. In 1802, he was appointed, by the General Assembly, one of the commissioners of the Farmington Canal, and was made President of that board. In 1826, he was chosen Mayor of the city of New-Haven. Having seen the canal located, made and extended to Connecticut river in Northampton, he resigned his office of commissioner in 1830, and has not since sustained any public office.

No wonder they won the James Beard award for service this past year! I am greeted like an old friend even by the coat check staff! It is one of the most stunning restaurant spaces in NY. Good for business, good for romance, good for a special meal with pals. That is the Danny Meyer touch...it suits everyone. As for the food, excellent, although I think the fish outshines the beef every single time. Dressing on salads were a bit heavy...Any type of flan that Chef Kerry creates is always worth getting. I can't wait for the seasonal spring pea flan. As for desserts, go for the very generous cookie/cake platter. Enough to share for at least 2, and even 4 as a tasting platter when you don't want a heavy ending to your meal.

Bring that special someone here and you'd definitely make an impression on them. It's decorated elegantly with a great romantic atmosphere!

We have been to 11 Madison Park a number of times when we visit NYC. Each experience has been terrific! The staff, the chef, the managers treat you like royalty! The food is outstanding! Compared to all the restaurants we have visited this is the one that is consistently outstanding in all respects! And ask for Ryan, the manager! He's so welcoming!
Posted by foodlover on 02/09/2005
Lunch during restaurant week was superb. Even more than the delicious food, particularly the lentil flan, there was a generosity and appreciation for the patrons. Three wonderful courses with choices and good wine for the unheard of price of $5.00 a glass. At the end a gift of wrapped chocolate and a discount card for future dining was offered. Additionally, the head chef walked around and welcomed everyone.This was the exact oposite of my experience at Chanterelle, where nothing, including the food, made me feel special. I will definitely return to 11 Madison Park where I did feel very special.

Last night my husband and I had dinner for restaurant week here and we were really unimpressed with the food. The selection was not great and we felt rushed through the meal. For appetizers I had the grilled squid salad which was ok and my husband had the lentil souffle and found the bacon was fatty. The main course was fair. We both had the meat which tasted like a pot roast. The desserts and bread were the highlights. We had heard such wonderful things about the restaurant but would not consider it again.
Posted by food-travelers on 02/03/2005
Every part of the meal was great and we had extras - the cheese puffs were amazing and the extra fudge and candies - rivals Chanterelle - we had to wait to be seated even though on time and the dining room empty. Service was not of the same standard as Tabla and Gramercy Tavern - the wait staff was not as knowledgeable - Great Alternative in atmosphere to the other restaurants in Danny Meyer's restaurant group.

Friendly serivce, good food. The cheddar rolls are a treat. My key lime tart with berries was really wonderful.

The homeless have just as much right to bear arms as affluent suburbanites. Get over your squeamish liberal bigotry. We don't know yet what led up to the shooting, but homeless people have long been targeted for abuse by teen gangs. Maybe he was just standing his ground and defending himself. If so, I applaud him.
I'd like to thank the Plain Dealer for providing this board as a therapeutic outlet for all the disturbed Keyboard Commandos out there who might otherwise act out their violent vigilante fantasies.
PatricK Cremeans, your remark about people with schizophrenia, and the phrase "mental and neurological disorders" rang some bells. You're a member of NAMI, aren't you?
Sounds like he aimed at their legs so he wouldn't have a couple deaths on his conscience. A wise exercise of the Castle Doctrine, although I'm sure most of the awesomely tough keyboard commandos here wouldn't agree.
"...that he had been branded" etc. Sorry for the misspelling.
A couple of people here have said he must have been mentally ill. A few others have said it must have been illegal drugs. I'd like to suggest a third possibility: That he he been branded as "mentally ill," but it was his so-called "medication" that drove him to his actions. It's a well known fact that abrupt cessation of antipsychotic drugs- which are increasingly being foisted on people who WERE NEVER PSYCHOTIC TO BEGIN WITH- can cause a florid psychotic break. Check out Dr. Peter Breggin's web site at breggin DOT com for more information on that. Another possibility is that he had a bad reaction to a selective seretonin reuptake inhibitor like prozac or zoloft or paxil. Check out ssristories DOT com for a jaw-droppingly long list of suicides and murder committed by people taking those so-called medications. Wake up America, you're being poisoned by the pharmaceutical insdustry, and every tragedy like this just allows the pushers to wring their hands and cry crocodile tears and call for MORE p$ychiatric intervention in our lives.
Bring the troops home now. This damned war isn't worth the life of another American girl or boy!
Call me paternalistic or sexist or old-fashioned for saying this if you will; I don't care: It's bad enough when you send boys off to war, but sending girls off to kill and be killed is simply barbaric. End this madness now and bring them all home!
I wholeheartedly support Herman Cain's bid to be the the Republican presidential nominee. Here's why:
Many conservative blacks will desert Obama for him, but many MORE racist whites who'd vote for any other republican will simply not vote, or will vote for some third party kook instead, thus ensuring Barack's re-election.
"sexual battery"? Give me a break! She's a cutie and that was one lucky boy!
The so-called "double standard" exists for a good reason, 'cause girls like her are NICE, even when they're naughty, but the PC thought police won't let you say that in this "enlightened" society.
The Channel 5 web site ran her picture. She's a TOTAL cutie. Sad, that beauty doesn't come with common sense. Too often the two seem to be mutually exclusive :(
'...Spaetzel said his department is aware Kopp had a history of mental illness and noted that even if he did tell people about Dienes, "We didn't get any calls from Joe Kopp." ...'
Who knows? Joe may have called in an anonymous tip. I'm so sick of people talking about Joe's so-called "mental illness." If Frank Dienes turnes out to be the killer, it was JOE who broke the case! Sure, it was foolish to go live in Dienes's garage after telling people he knew he did it, but talk about GUTS! I have a hunch that when this whole awful mess is finally sorted out in the courts, Joe Kopp will emerge a hero. If he was"mentally ill," then Society needs MORE of what he had!
hombrito: you're entitled to your opinion. I'll reserve mine till after I see the play. This article has really piqued my interest in it. Thank you, Plain dealer!
This sort of thing is what I love about this country: you can have this play and those demonstrators, each peacefully excersising their first Amendment rights just meters apart, without resorting to violence, and individuals can decide whether or not to attend the play .
God bless America!
After what he did to that girl, (and no, I won't describe it here...) no punishment is too brutal or degrading for him.
Too bad he got caught. After the way banks have screwed America, I applaud any bank robber who gets away with it.
Sports bore me to tears, but I enjoy a good tease show, (if the girls doing it are cute enough.) Hire some sweet, innocent-looking 18 year-olds, doll them up in micro-miniskirts and throw some cheesy panty flashing moves into their routines and I guarantee you the old pervs wil come out in droves to support the team.
Smart move, PD. Identify the victim and where he lives so the bad guys can come and loot his house while he's in the hospital. Real smart.
Death is far to good for him. He should be housed with the most violent offenders, and they should be rewarded with whatever their favorite contraband is (drugs, etc...) for KEEPING HIM ALIVE.
They'll certainly think of creative ways to make him wish he was dead, yet those rewards will make sure they extend his miserable life for a long, long time.
