Agriculture & Food
Nothing is more basic to human well-being than having enough nutritious food to eat. Yet one in every eight people in the world — 842 million — are trapped in a cycle of hunger and poverty.
The reality is that most of the world doesn't have the benefit of picking up food from the corner store — they grow it themselves. Hunger is a crisis when disaster ruins the harvest. It is a cycle when families cannot grow or buy enough to lead healthy, productive lives, and when the effects of malnutrition are passed on to the next generation.
When food shortages occur due to drought and conflict, Mercy Corps helps prevent hunger and treat malnutrition in the most vulnerable — children, pregnant women, the elderly and the displaced. We distribute vouchers, cash or emergency rations, working with local suppliers to speed delivery, save money and boost local economies.
In addition to emergency responses, we focus on long-term solutions that build future food security.
Mercy Corps helps farmers manage their land, increase their harvests and diversify crops to produce a larger, more nutritious, and stable food supply. By teaching nutrition and hygiene, we ensure families can utilize their resources to boost their health. And we connect farmers with new markets and introduce more efficient methods of tending productive livestock and processing and storing crops to increase incomes for years to come.

Niger: Responding to Niger's latest hunger crisis
Five years ago, Mercy Corps responded to a catastrophic food crisis in Niger that put more than 3.5 million people at risk of malnutrition and starvation. Today, Niger is facing potentially worse food shortages — and Mercy Corps is again readying a lifesaving response.
Afghanistan: Greening Afghanistan
I'm just going to say it — people think of Afghanistan as a pile of rocks. I see where the mental image comes from; photos on the news do seem to showcase the sand and rocks in their effort to capture the grittiness of soldiers at war. But I know an Afghanistan of a different color: green.
North Korea: Seeding apple orchards
Throughout the past 12 years Mercy Corps has been investing in the establishment of diverse, healthy apple orchards in South Hwangae Province as a means of improving the domestic nutritional food-basket.
Mongolia: D-z-u-d spells "disaster" for Mongolian herders
Ever heard of a "dzud"? It's pronounced zuhd, and it's an extraordinarily harsh Mongolian winter -- the kind where temperatures plummet, animals freeze to death, and you can enter your house only through the roof because that's how high the snow is.
Guatemala: Travels in Alta Verapaz
It's raining again in Coban, Guatemala. Driving out to visit some communities, we come upon the apparently eternal landslide bleeding from the rain the night before, and washing out the road with its rust-red mud and boulders.
Indonesia: From pushing a pedicab to steering a healthy food cart
His name is Gunanto, or Gun for short. He's 32 years old with two school-aged children. His wife works as a laundry laborer in their Jakarta neighborhood and earns 150,000 Indonesian rupiah — about US$15 — per month.
Central African Republic: Baking a better future in Africa
In the impoverished Central African Republic, we're finding ways to help women like Edwige feed her family by expanding their economic opportunities.
Ethiopia: How did Mercy Corps turn rain from foe back to friend in Ethiopia?
Ethiopia has long struggled with food insecurity. With generous support from USAID, Mercy Corps has just completed the first year of a three-year effort to improve food security in some of Ethiopia's most vulnerable regions.
Afghanistan: Almonds for Afghanistan: A farmer tries his hand at a high-value crop
I picked my way gingerly though the rows of young, green wheat as our host, farmer Ahmed Shah*, the Mercy Corps project manager and a few agriculture experts strode ahead across the field.

2013 Summer Flounder Recreational Fishery Options
2/19/2013 | Posted by ckennedyTags: Recreational
The Department intends to propose regulations in 2013 that expand the recreational summer flounder fishery. The Maryland harvest estimates in 2012 were significantly lower than the target that is set for Maryland in 2013, and we can therefore expand the fishery. Options that are currently being proposed to the ASMFC Summer Flounder, Black Sea Bass, and Scup Technical Committee all include expansion of the fishery through decreased minimum sizes, expanded seasons, increased creels or a combination of those management measures. The ASMFC management board meets the week of February 18 to approve/deny the options.

PRACTICE: 3.18.09, Islanders IceworksSutton…roster decisions..Mannino…KO USA?
1:10 pm, Iceworks – Some quick notes from practice now, plenty more stories to come over the next few days.
Peter Mannino, Mike Iggulden and Joel Rechlicz are all back in Bridgeport. With both the Islanders and Sound Tigers not playing until Friday night, the team has plenty of time to make roster decisions.
Today's lines at practice: Tambellini-Nielsen-Okposo, Hilbert-McAmmond-Jackman and Comeau-Bailey-Park. Nate Thompson, healthy, had his own practice jersey color. Considering the Islanders will call up players by Friday, these combos don't really mean diddly.
Andy Sutton had his first full team practice. Two weeks ago he told Point Blank he was on his way back and the only question was whether he'd play some NHL games at the end of the season. Now we know the answer. "I'm going to play," said Sutton. "It's a matter of when."
It probably won't be this weekend, but it could be sometime next week (the NYI play Wednesday, Friday and Saturday). Said Scott Gordon, "If he's healthy, you want him in there – especially Sutts, who's been through a lot. It would be great for him to get some action and give him something positive to build on."
Doug Weight has resumed skating and has a goal of returning for the April games.
If the Islanders get Sutton and Weight back, an added benefit is the roster of the Bridgeport Sound Tigers would be replenished.
Gordon, candidly and with a smile when asked whether Peter Mannino's performance in Chicago surprised him: "Yeah." The coach said he chose to tell the rookie goalie about his first NHL start on the morning of the game. "On one hand you want to give guys time to prepare, but I also didn't want him to have much time to think about it."
Gordon said the start was the perfect time to give the kid a shot, plus he was aware Mannino's mother and father were coming to the game whether he was starting or not. Gordon said he hadn't made his goalie decisions for Friday (Carolina) and Saturday (Ottawa), but would not rule out a second start for Mannino.
From the blog that last week brought you "Okposo Joining Bridgeport," comes "Is Okposo Joining Team USA"? Nothing is official yet. Asked after practice today, Kyle Okposo said he has not been officially contacted by USA Hockey about playing at the upcoming World Championships. Our take: they're just being respectful of the Islanders and the invitation will come soon.
Gordon on his first look at the play of center Frans Nielsen. "Before the job interview process started with Garth, I watched and broke down several Islanders games from the end of last season on tape. I knew about Frans a bit from coaching in Providence, but he really stood out for me on the tape – his awareness, playmaking, hockey sense. I told Garth that Frans was a player we could really work with."
More to come. Revised Comment Guidelines. Prospect talk in next thread.

UPDATE, 5/14/13: Jarvin Jackson, 11, died Tuesday of his injuries during an accidental firearm discharge on Sunday, according to the Lake City Police Department.
The investigation is ongoing, according to a release from the LCPD.
LAKE CITY, Fla. -- An 11-year-old boy is in critical condition after a 4-year-old accidentally shot him.
According to the Lake City Police Department, officers responded to Cedar Park Apartments after a report of a shooting incident on Sunday.
"I saw a young man just crying and screaming 'somebody help me,'" said neighbor Barbara Allen.
She was just getting up when she heard the gunshot next door early Sunday morning. She said she ran outside to help, but it was too late.
"After the police came and they pulled the baby out, it just hurt my heart," she said.
In a phone interview, 11-year-old Jarvin Jackson's grandmother said his 2- and 4-year-old brother and sister were playing with the gun when Jarvin tried to get it away from them.
Jarvin's grandmother said it went off accidentally, hitting Jarvin in the neck.
"It was Mother's Day. I couldn't even imagine how the mother felt on Mother's Day," said Allen.
His mother is now sitting at his bedside at UF Shands. Jarvin's aunt said he suffered a small stroke this morning, and is on a ventilator.
Allen said the whole neighborhood is pulling for him.
"It's just sad, scary, I didn't know what to think. That was just a sad sight to see," said Allen.
According to LCPD, the shooting incident has been ruled accidental.
An investigation into the circumstances surrounding the possession of the firearm by the minor is ongoing.

|While increasing college participation — especially among minority and low-income youth and older adults — remains a priority for many states, the postsecondary agenda is shifting more toward boosting completion rates. State and federal policymakers and several national foundations have recognized that educational attainment rates must be raised significantly if the United States is to remain competitive in the global markets. Further, a growing percentage of jobs over the next decade will require a postsecondary credential or degree, and higher education systems and institutions will have to produce more graduates and in particular fields to meet workforce demands.
The information provided in this section details the challenges states face as they seek to improve college success and provide possible policy solutions to problems of preparation, participation, remediation, affordability, completion, finance, and student learning.

Back from my vacation, thanks for bearing with us! Here are some thoughts on the big Rangers
news of the last few days.
- There's considerable shock over both the term of Ryan
Callahan's contract and the dollar amount. Everyone assumed Callahan would be in for a significant bump over
Brandon Dubinsky's $4.2 million cap hit, but in the end Cally ended up with a
dollar figure just a nudge over Dubi's. Callahan's
new three-year,
$12.785 million deal is definitely an agreeable number for the Blueshirts and
though the difference between his $4.275 million cap hit and the estimated $4.5
million to $5 million most expected Callahan would get isn't much, if Callahan
had earned the higher number it would have basically been equivalent to Steve
Eminger's contract this year. It would
have been hard to argue if Callahan got significant more than he did, but
assuming he becomes the team's captain and a consistent 25-to-30 goal scorer,
it will be a bargain. Though Callahan
was disappointed that he didn't receive a longer deal, he seemed to understand
the Rangers couldn't make that happen right now. It's hard to say what that means, but as a
true captain should, Callahan did what was best for the team. Barring something unforeseen, Callahan will
remain a Ranger for much longer than the three-year term of this deal and could
be poised to cash in again as a 29-year-old.
- As first
speculated by HockeyBuzz a week ago, the Rangers signed first-round pick
J.T. Miller to an entry-level deal. This
was a curious move because the Rangers have typically allowed their prospects
to play a year un-signed after being drafted, likely to make sure they're
progressing well. There was no rush to
sign Miller, but the C/LW has made his desire to reach the NHL quickly well
known. The Rangers were obviously higher
on Miller than most when they drafted him, so perhaps this signing indicates
that the team is more confident than we realize that Miller will be the real
deal. Miller will
play for the Plymouth Whalers of the OHL this season after initially
indicating that he'd attend the University of North Dakota. Miller's change of heart has drawn criticism
and though the Rangers did not push Miller to make the move, they can't be too
upset about it. The Blueshirts have been
very successful with developing OHL prospects in recent years and although
players like Derek Stepan and Ryan McDonagh have emerged from the college
ranks, Chris Kreider's slower development has clearly disturbed New York. Miller's decision to play in the OHL and desire
to hit the fast-track to the NHL are in stark contrast to Kreider and is surely
preferable for New York. If all goes
well for Miller this year, he has stated that it is his hope to play
professionally, likely in the AHL, next season. The Rangers are stacked at center and along the right wing, so unless
Derek Stepan is switched to the left side, it would appear that Miller and
Kreider could be direct competitors for a vacant left wing spot over the next
two seasons. The development of these
two will be very interesting to watch, but Miller is clearly coming in with
guns blazing.
- The New Jersey Devils placed Colin White and Trent Hunter
on waivers today. Both will be
bought out assuming they go unclaimed and this could free up enough money for
the Devils to sign Zach Parise to a long-term contract extension before next
summer. The Rangers are up against the
cap and will be unable to pursue either player even if they were interested,
but both could have been interesting depth players. Hunter was a decent bottom-six player before
his leg injury last year and White, though limited offensively and fairly
immobile, is a big-time physical presence.
- The Traverse City Tournament begins September 10th!

In a town that once had three water sources serving citizens residing in the city, the drop to a single water source has taken its toll.
Since spring 2002, Helper has not had use of the Fish Creek spring line.
According to Helper Councilman Robert Welch, the line had to be turned off permanently due to winter freezing that broke several sections of pipe.
The councilman oversees the city's water department.
When the line was originally constructed in the 1920s, redwood was used as the primary building material, pointed out Welch.
In the 1970s, the redwood line was replaced with a transite pipe composite which contained asbestos.
When the change was made, the councilman indicated that it was not cost effective for the city to bury the entire line.
Therefore, city officials decided to leave a significant portion of the transite pipe uncovered.
During the last 30 years, breakage caused by the exposure has lead to several sections of the water transmission line being replaced with plastic piping.
To prevent additional breakage, the Fish Creek line was usually shut down and drained yearly during the cold months.
However, according to Welch, in the winter of 2001 the water was not shut down because the summer's drought left Helper in desperate need for the water.
More than two years later, Helper is preparing to take bids on the construction of three miles of line to replace the defunct line in Fish Creek.
With a $250,000 grant from the Community Impact Board and another $250,000 Community Development Block Grant from the Southeastern Utah Association of Governments, Helper has enough funds to construct the new pipeline.
Welch said the entire project should be able to be completed without a cost to Helper residents.
The need for the Fish Creek line to be functional is greater than ever. Early in the spring, Helper lost another source of water to the city, the Colton well. The well was rendered useless when the pump shaft went down.
Utah Power & Light is currently trying to get the well back up and running.
With no Fish Creek line or Colton well, Helper has been relying solely on the water from Canyon Springs.
Helper has been purchasing water from the Price River Water Improvement District at the cost of $1.16 per thousand gallons until the Colton well is back in service or until the Fish Creek line can be completed.
Welch said the council had considered just patching the pipe and continue using the system that was already in place.
However, after researching the extent of the damage to the Fish Creek line, he said he believed the pipe could no longer be nursed along.
For an estimated $4,500, Helper could buy the materials to repair the lines.
However, Welch said the $4,500 does not account for man hours, gas costs and any unforeseen problems.
The water would also have to be shut down prior to construction of the new pipe in order to prevent contamination of the water.
It was decided in the last meeting of the city council that patching the pipe, even temporarily until the new pipe was completed, was not a feasible option.
"I feel it's better for the community to have this line down and replace it rather than just patch it," asserted Welch. "Yes, it is costing us money to buy water but it is a hardship the city is going to have to take to get something done and something done right."
Bidding on the Fish Creek line will take place on July 8 and the notice of award is expected on July 9.
The contractor for the project will be asked to treat the line as an emergency situation and begin construction as soon as possible.
Welch predicts that construction should begin within two to three weeks of the notice of award.
Helper citizens are encouraged to voluntarily make efforts to conserve water to help ease the water situation.
If the water condition worsens, a mandatory restriction may have to be put on the city later in the summer, concluded Welch.

You'll need to pack good walking shoes before you set off for Thailand, as the country has a diverse range of attractions that you'll want to explore.
As well as hundreds of Buddhist temples, Thailand has a few surprises as there are also many cathedrals and mosques. As well as religious sites, there are some first-class, modern museums that tell the history of Thailand and its arts. Many museums now have interactive displays that bring heritage to life, making it easy to understand Thailand's past. The cities of Ayuthaya and Sukhothai have a long history, while in Kanchanaburi the more recent history of World War Two and the infamous Bridge Over the River Kwai has its own museum. There are also several art galleries and exhibition halls that offer different displays every few months.
Out in the countryside, there are several vineyards that are now open to visitors who want to sample the produce and soak up nature. For a more lively experience, there are several theme parks in Bangkok and indoor attractions for when the Thai temperature just gets too much.
Art and culture lovers tend to start their viewings in Bangkok, as the capital has several museums and art galleries.
Thailand is overwhelmingly Buddhist, so unsurprisingly most places of worship are temples.
Fancy spending a week sipping wine and wandering through the vineyards? You don't have to head to South Africa or France to do that – Thailand has its own selection of wine-growing companies.
Thais love to enjoy themselves, so accordingly you're never short of entertainment options.

Midwest Living Review
Custer State Park unveiled a top-of-the-line reunion cabin near the historic State Game Lodge in July 2010. The big kitchen and great room are a natural gathering place. The dining room table, made with huge pine planks slathered in poly, seats about 18, and there's room for five at the kitchen bar. The decorators did an awesome job in choosing textured, rich fabrics, accents and even a cool tabletop bison sculpture. Bedroom suites flank each side of the great room, and a loft is packed with bunks for kids. All rooms had king beds, but were each slightly different. One would have a Jacuzzi while another had well-stocked bookshelves. Some rooms are even handicapped-accessible. A sizable deck with a grill overlooks Coolidge Creek. There's also a fire pit for campfires. Watch for deer, bison and an occasional bighorn sheep to wander through the yard. The Peter Norbeck Visitor Center is visible from the cabin, and guests can easily stroll to short trails, take a longer Lover's Leap hike, hop onto the park's scenic byways or cast a line behind the cottage. The cabin offers a fresh alternative to the older cabins that could accommodate up to 16 people. The cottage rents for $795/night and books years in advance. Be prepared to be patient for an opening and plan far ahead.

GOUVERNEUR A plan is in the works to finish cleaning up a property contaminated by gasoline by removing a garage on East Main Street to create another lane at Factory Street during the state Department of Transportations road project in the village this summer.
The state Department of Environmental Conservation cleaned up what contamination it could around 374 E. Main St. in November.
Everything accessible was removed, said Matthew W. Dufany, a DEC environmental engineer.
Crews could not reach contamination under the building.
Should that become accessible, well do another evaluation, Mr. Dufany said.
The $9.1 million DOT project includes reconstruction of East Main Street from North Gordon to Railroad streets. The work includes water and sewer line replacements, the closure of Beckwith Street and intersection changes.
The village saw the roadwork project as an opportunity to remove the building which has delinquent taxes finish the cleanup, and use the parcel to make another lane on East Main Street that would improve access for Cives Steel, a Kinney Drugs warehouse and an industrial park of the St. Lawrence County Industrial Development Agency on Factory Street.
What were trying to do is make it more convenient, Mayor Ronald P. McDougall said.
The village and town are expected to apply jointly to the St. Lawrence River Valley Redevelopment Agency for money to remove the building.
The DEC does not have final figures on the cost of the cleanup, Mr. Dufany said.
St. Lawrence County will work with the state Oil Spill Fund on limiting liability as it has on other parcels cleaned up by the DEC and resold at the county tax sale.
Because there are past due taxes, the county may play a role through the tax foreclosure process, county attorney Michael C. Crowe said. I think we have a plan to expedite the procedures.
Property owner Richard D. Rotundo was not available for comment.
Officials want to speed up the process so the turning lane can be created by the DOT as it rebuilds that section of road.
I would hope it can be done before this summer, Legislator Donald A. Peck, D-Gouverneur, said.

On Sunday my son and I were working on a car we have been trying to restore to life for some time now. We finally got the engine back in and got it set up to start, but there was no spark.
With a more modern car we just could have hooked up my sons electronic equipment to it and found out what was wrong. But this car was built before that time and we went through the routine of checking wires, the coil and various other kinds of things to get the spark of life into the ignition. As we did this my eyes kept falling on the electronic module mounted to the fender well thinking that could be the problem. But I also knew that not long before we took the engine out I had replaced that early piece of computer technology that is the size of a small cereal box. So I dismissed my intuition by ignoring the most simple solution of all; unplugging the module and plugging in one we knew that worked from my old flatbed truck.
Finally, after all else had failed, that's what we did and the engine sprang to life; the old adage if you have spark and fuel it will at least start, was proven true once again.
After we were done that evening and my son went home I sat on the patio thinking about what we had accomplished that day. The engine was in, and with a few more parts and some adjustments it would be on the road. In the last two weekends we had taken a car that had been out of commission with a worn out engine and now have now created something that will be able to function normally for many, many miles. I was pretty proud of us.
Then I asked myself the question "Why don't we, the human race, look to simple answers to solve the worlds problems instead of always making everything so complicated?"
Maybe some of the problems we face are not as complicated as we think and simple solutions could be the answer to some of them. I am not demeaning those that work on important issues, but maybe a little intuition about fixes, about making it simple instead of more involved, is the answer to many of man kind's woes.
The world is not an engine, but the sparks that drive it or don't drive it exist in human beings. And the fuel is the circumstances that exist in the world.
As I said to myself when we realized that it was just that outdated electronic module on the side of the fender "keep it simple, stupid" would be a good adage for all those that attempt to solve problems in our controversial and modern world to follow.

Teancum writes: "RKK Energia, the prime contractor for the Russian space program and the company who builds the Russian Soyuz spacecraft, recently confirmed negotiations are underway with space tourism company Space Adventures for a privately financed crewed flight around the Moon.

After transportation, accommodation is typically the number two expense in your holiday budget. It needn't be so, however, with a bit of planning and a little creativity. There are many low-cost, yet very clean and comfortable lodgings available throughout Thailand.
Plan to take the night trains to several destinations and sleep on board. Camp out in the cool mountains for a fraction of the cost of a hotel. Choose homestay accommodation and reduce your costs even more. Have a look at our budget selections below and start reducing that number two expense – use the savings for gifts or even add another destination to your itinerary.
There has been a hostel explosion in Bangkok and other large Thai cities in the past few years.
Bed & Breakfasts and guesthouses usually have a warmth and charm that even the best hotels cannot duplicate – at least in the best of cases.
Because of the range and number of hotels, hostels, guesthouses, and B&B's in Thailand, the prices are very competitive, especially in the low season (outside of Western winters).
Homestays are in many ways the ideal type of accommodation, including for the budget traveler.
Thais love and know nature and the outdoors to an often impressive degree, and they love sharing it with others.

The private ownership groups that are reviving the 24,000-acre Pueblo Springs Ranch project are based in Arizona and Nevada and have a successful track record of bringing large development projects to completion, a spokesman said Monday.
ARCUS, a private equity investment firm in Gilbert, Ariz., is taking the lead for the three owner groups. Kent Kleiner, a spokesman, said they want Pueblo to annex the 24,000 acres for the development as soon as feasible, but recognize this could take some time.
City Council will be looking at a resolution this month to grant a three-year extension to a "lariat" of annexed land north of Pueblo that encircles the proposed Pueblo Springs Ranch project. That lariat is what would allow the city to annex the project in the future.
Pueblo Springs Ranch has been on the drawing board since 2007 but stalled in the economic recession that came the following year.

The National Weather Service has issued a flood watch for parts of eastern Utah.
Forecasters say the weekend's warm temperatures have caused rapid snow melt on mountains in western Colorado and eastern Utah, leading to steady rising river levels.
Flooding could occur along Utah's Green River near Jensen, east of Vernal, and along smaller creeks and streams that flow into the Green River.
On Sunday morning, the weather service said the Green River was at 6.3 feet. Flood stage is reached at 10.8 feet. Forecasters predict the river could reach flood stage by this Friday.
Hydrologists say peak runoff is expected over the next two weeks with temperatures warming and possible rain in the forecast too.
Randy Julander says Utah streams will be running fast, high and cold. He is the snow survey supervisor for the Natural Resources Conservation Service.
The National Weather Service also warned that dangerous streams bring the risk of drowning.
Peak runoff was long over by this time last year. An impressive snow count and cool temperatures have stored the mountain snowpack longer this year. But now it's ready to release.

text: NEWPORT CITY- In 1989 owners of a hardware store, The Pick and Shovel, decided to open an ice cream stand. At first the idea wasn't universally approved; Greg Hamblett recalls that when the stand first opened people told Tim and Doug they were "nuts." Twenty four years later the iconic stand is a popular meeting place, not just for ice cream, but people to meet and socialize.

PAWTUCKET – A city man prosecutors call a career offender has been sentenced to 10 years in federal prison for trafficking in oxycodone, a pharmaceutical painkiller similar to heroin.
Audi Pineda, 39, was also ordered to serve three years' supervised release upon the completion of his sentence. He appeared in U.S. District Court this week before Judge John McConnell.
In October 2012, a jury convicted Pineda of conspiracy and two counts of possession of oxycodone with the intent to deliver, according to federal prosecutors.
During a two-day trial, the Pawtucket police and federal agents testified they found 33 oxycodone pills and three cell phones when they searched Pineda at a barber shop where he works, in August 2011. Pineda was carrying some of the incriminating evidence, and some was in his work area.
A separate search of Pineda's residence resulted in the discovery of a hidden compartment built into a basement wall which contained more than twelve grams of cocaine. In a separate location in a wall near a basement bathroom agents discovered a plastic bag containing $36,000 in U.S. currency.
Federal prosecutors also presented evidence of drug deals that came from Pineda's cell phones in the form of text messages.
The jury acquitted Pineda of one count of possession with the intent to distribute cocaine.
The case was prosecuted by Assistant U.S. Attorney Milind M. Shah. The sentence was announced by United States Attorney Peter F. Neronha; John J. Arvanitis, special agent in charge of the Drug Enforcement Administration's New England Field Division; and Pawtucket Police Chief Paul King.

Even before I laid eyes on Princess P's new room, I had a vision of how I wanted to decorate it in my head. Pink paint, white accents and something personal on the walls. Ok, so maybe I didn't have all the details worked out, but I knew it was going to be something special.
I had read about vinyl wall decals in the past, but never really thought that they would be something I would want to decorate my own home with. I don't know why? They are fairly inexpensive, easy to install and provide you with a custom look.
When I learned to I was getting the chance to review a decal from Dali Wall Decals, I knew that picking the perfect one was going to be half the battle. I wanted something special for P's room, but I had no idea what.
After browsing through several pages on the Dali Decals site, I came across the "Sweet Dreams, My Love…" Decal and it really stuck with me. However, I knew that the size (66″ wide) was going to be way to big for P's new room.
After going back and fourth on whether to get the "Sweet Dreams…" Decal or not, I decided to send Dali Decals an email asking if it could be custom sized to fit P's room. I promptly received and email back saying "Yes" and I was asked the measurements and given a link to custom order the decal.
When the decal arrived, and the Princess Pink paint (I'm not lying, that is the actual name) had dried, it was time to put the custom decal on the wall. My friend, R, came over to help me put it up and to make sure everything was straight and even.
Once we were finished, I stepped back to take a look and was very pleased with the outcome. I decided to go with the Pistachio Matte color and I am so glad I did. It really stands out against the pink and gives her room a special feel.
Buy It: The "Sweet Dreams, My Love…" Decal can be purchased on the Dali Wall Decals site for $25

The United States Department of Human Health Services seems to be pushing for the sexualization of young children. According to the HHS website, children are in fact "sexual beings." This revelation comes around the same time as a group of psychologists are pushing to decriminalize pedophilia. The combination could prove to be a recipe for trouble and for the loss of childhood innocence.
In the "Questions and Answers About Sex" section of the HHS website's "Quick Guide to Healthy Living," (pictured) children and infants are described as "sexual beings." The site indicates:
Children are human beings and therefore sexual beings. It's hard for parents to acknowledge this, just as it's hard for kids to think of their parents as sexually active. But even infants have curiosity about their own bodies, which is healthy and normal.
According to the site, children engage in a variety of sexual behaviors:

Musicians gung-ho for sound man: 'He made it more of what we wanted'
EUGENE, Ore. - Often overshadowed by trendy cousins Portland and Seattle, Eugene isn't widely known for its music scene.
Yet, tucked away in a quiet corner of rolling farmland lies one of the most sought-after sanctuaries for musicians of local and national acclaim.
Tori Amos, Thomas Mapfumo and the Blacks Unlimited, Cherry Poppin' Daddies, Zoot Horn Rollo and Yo-Yo Ma are just a few to have graced Eugene's Gung-Ho Studio.
For most musicians, Gung-Ho's draw isn't only its extensive array of instruments or vintage microphones from every decade, but largely the genius of its owner, sound enthusiast Billy Barnett.
Barnett, a musician turned self-taught sound engineer, knows music inside and out. In his illustrious 40-year career he has managed to generate award-winning records and has worked with almost every well-known artist in Eugene. He is also in his 20th year as the Eugene Symphony Orchestra's recording engineer.
Outside the studio, he keeps himself artistically content as the lead guitarist in local band Mood Area 52.
"I'm kind of a jack of all trades," he says. "I can't separate myself from any part of the work that I do in here from my musicianship."
Barnett's producing success lies in his ability to relate to a range of personalities and solve a multitude of technical problems. He works to meet the structural and aesthetic needs of every artist without losing sight of the project's original vision.
"Billy is like salt," says Jason Cowsill, ringleader of local band Troupe Carnivàle. "Used correctly, salt doesn't make a meal salty; it enhances the natural flavor of the food."
Barnett produced the band's first album, "Skaal Krush," at Gung-Ho in 2012.
"He created and produced without us losing what we came in with," says Cowsill. "He made it more of what we wanted as opposed to turning it into something else."
During recording sessions, Barnett is known to use experimental methods to capture specific sounds. In his session with Troupe Carnivàle, he came up with the idea to drop an old-fashioned suitcase filled with various percussion instruments to create a chaotic clash of sounds. The instrument the band calls "concussion" is featured on the track "Driving Me Crazy."
When he isn't inventing new instruments in his backyard studio, Barnett can sometimes be found meticulously stringing microphones from the ceiling of the Hult Center in preparation for a Eugene Symphony performance. During the show, he sits in front of his mixing board in a small control room high behind the audience and follows along with the classical score to ensure that every instrument in the orchestra is recorded with precision.
"I work with everything from hard core punk rock to classical music professionally and I love it all," he says.
Pinpointing his clients' desired sound is easy compared to defining the music he plays in Eugene band Mood Area 52.
"I just call it Americano because it's somewhere between Americana and Tango, I guess," he says.
The band's latest record, "Company Town," channels rockabilly, surf rock, blues, jazz and even Middle Eastern wedding music. "As we play music that's less and less easier to categorize and pigeonhole, the more fun it is."
Just like the hit records he helps create, Billy Barnett, the man behind the music, is a little bit of everything. A producer, an engineer, a musician, and a creative mind, he continues to exude the same enthusiasm that he named his studio for.
The JAM Workshop — Journalism Arts Multimedia — is a brand new class taught at the University of Oregon's School Of Journalism and Communication.

Mark Holyoak
Castleview Hospital announced Monday that Mark C. Holyoak has been appointed its chief executive officer effective immediately. Holyoak has served the hospital as chief operating officer since 2010 and as interim CEO since January 2011. He succeeds Jeffrey Manley, who is leaving his post to focus on his family and health.
"Mark is deeply committed to both Castleview Hospital and the citizens of Carbon and Emery counties," said Michael Clark, president of LifePoint Hospitals' American Division, of which Castleview Hospital is a part. "This commitment - coupled with nearly 15 years of healthcare experience and proven expertise in hospital operations - makes Mark an ideal successor to Castleview's long-time and beloved leader, Jeff Manley."
Prior to joining Castleview Hospital in 2010, Holyoak served as chief nursing and clinical officer at Ashley Regional Medical Center, in Vernal for 10 years. In this position, he contributed significantly to developing a patient focused facility, worked closely with the medical staff.

FORT DRUM The lives of six 10th Mountain Division soldiers killed during deployments in 2012 were remembered Tuesday at a ceremony on post.
They are a credit to America, and they represent the finest of our American spirit, said retired Maj. Gen. Galen B. Jackman, the ceremonys main speaker. They are simply the best of us.
The soldiers honored at the ceremony were Spc. Junot M.L. Cochilus, 2nd Lt. David E. Rylander, Staff Sgt. Daniel A. Rodriguez, Sgt. Jose J. Reyes, Pfc. Jose O. Belmontes and Sgt. 1st Class Bobby L. Estle. All of them served in Afghanistan with the 10th Sustainment Brigade at the time of their death.
Mr. Jackman, former division chief of staff, noted the wide range of backgrounds that make up the service and the common goal the soldiers had.
They came from every corner of our country, and raised their right hand to support and defend our Constitution, he said. They became our warriors; they are our sons and daughters, our sisters and brothers and our neighbors.
Maj. Gen. Stephen J. Townsend, post and division commander, said he wished that Tuesdays ceremony was his last, but noted that the post community would have to return next year for another remembrance ceremony.
The division has had six soldiers killed in 2013, already matching the total for all of 2012.
Gen. Townsend told guests to remember the 5,281 soldiers from the divisions 1st, 2nd and 4th Brigade Combat Teams along with its 10th Combat Aviation Brigade who were either on their way or deployed to Afghanistan.
For Francis L. Paranzino, the father of Sgt. Michael F. Paranzino, who was killed by an improvised explosive device in November 2010, Tuesdays ceremony was a chance for reflection that he didnt have when he first attended the annual ceremony in 2011.
In the beginning, the intensity was so much it seems almost unbearable, he said. As time goes by, you try to get some meaning.
Asked what meaning he had found in the time since his sons death, Mr. Paranzino said, You realize our whole lifestyle is paid for by many sons and daughters.
You just decide youll never take it for granted, he said.
A group of Paranzino family members, including the sergeants wife, Lindsey Christopher-Paranzino, and children, Logan S., 12, and Maxton F., 5, mother, Melane C., and brother, Daniel F., also took the time around the ceremony to go out to dinner with members of Michaels unit, the 1st Squadron, 71st Cavalry Regiment, 1st Brigade Combat Team.
Among the Gold Star family members in attendance was Paul Monti, father of Sgt. 1st Class Jared C. Monti, who was killed in 2006. Mr. Monti has received some notoriety in recent weeks because of the popularity of the Lee Brice country song I Drive Your Truck, which was written by songwriter Connie Harrington after she heard an interview Mr. Monti did on NPR about his son.
The division band played the song before the ceremony, and Gen. Townsend talked to Mr. Monti after the ceremony next to his sons Dodge Ram truck.

Nicaragua Esteli - Nueva Esperanza
We targeted a City+ roast for this Nicaragua to focus on the almond and cocoa powder flavors in the coffee. This meant a final roast temperature of only 426 degrees with an average roast time of 15:30. The batch size this week was slightly smaller than normal which accounts for the quicker roast. Also, the profile this week involved only raising the heat once at the seven minute mark and then bringing it back down around ten minutes and 380 degrees. First crack was a bit more violent than what we've been seeing lately so the color we desired developed before the thermoprobe read 430.

Toronto 98, Clippers 96
Posted by Kevin Arnovitz on Thu, 12/21/06, 02:16am:
Category: General
Posted by: Kevin Arnovitz
After the Clippers tie the game with a 9-1 run, the final minute of the game goes something like this:
- The two teams trade a pair of free throws from their respective point guards. After TJ Ford sinks his, the Clippers get the rock back with 44.6.
- Shaun brings the ball up and leaves it with Mobley up top way out high on the right wing. The Clippers draw up a variation of an old favorite, the "9 Ice" set. What happens is that after Shaun passes the ball over to Cat, he gets a screen from Maggette at the elbow [Maggette is actually filling a role normally performed by Kaman in the set.]. Shaun dives past the screen and gets position on itsy-bitsy TJ Ford in the mid-post.
Here, it all falls apart. Cat seems set to make the post entry pass for Shaun - and Sam is yelling for him to do so - but for whatever reason, Cat just holds the ball overhead and decides to work it back up top. The first problem here is that Cat is neither a proficient ball handler nor passer. He does a lot of things for you on the offensive end - works off the ball, sets screens, posts his defender, and shoots --- but now he's dribbling way up high through defenders and has worked himself over to the high wing beyond the arc. At :05 left in the shot clock, he gets a high screen from EB, who then rolls off. It's not exactly where you'd like Elton to get the ball, but it's a better option than, say, trapping yourself in the left corner with :03 left and having to throw up an asinine jumper that catches nothing.
Your guess is as good as mine. Maybe Cat sees something that we don't, but the feed into Shaun there is a cinch. Shaun towers over TJ by no fewer than seven inches. At the very least, Shaun can step off the block and reset or get Brand cutting, or eventually find Sam on the weak side if the Raps are slow on their rotation. I mean, there are a lot of different ways you can go here and Mobley dribbling around with a blindfold on isn't one of them.
- The Raps get it back with :15 seconds left. There's nothing novel or terribly creative about their scheme: Spread the floor with their best shooters and isolate TJ up top. The Clips decide to stay home and let Q Ross man up against Ford. I don't think it's a bad decision in that Q has made this his calling card and has the quicks to defend TJF. Ford hasn't done much from the field and Q, logically, is clearly looking for the penetration.
Amazingly, Ford doesn't even cross the arc until 3.2 seconds or so. He puts this little stutter-fake move on Ross, who has managed to stay in front of him. Off the fake, TJ catches Ross back on his heels for a nanosecond. The shot is a fadeaway.
And it lands.

Jefferson County Sheriff John P. Burns says he has taken all the correct steps in addressing a spate of bad behavior that has brought state investigations, criminal charges and multimillion-dollar lawsuits against county employees and the county itself.
The Board of Legislators has agreed to allow the sheriff time to sort out these matters internally. Legislators, however, are growing anxious about the amount of time it is taking.
Though the board has no direct control over the sheriff, an elected official, it exerts control over his budget. And it can use that influence to sway his actions.
Some legislators have expressed a desire to see an independent investigation.
Its a prospect Mr. Burns says he welcomes.
If they want to look at everything, thats fine. Its not a problem, Mr. Burns said.
He said allegations against Undersheriff Andrew R. Neff, accused of harassing a convicted felon by text message, and corrections officer Mark H. Kellogg, accused of assault in an off-duty bar fight, already are being investigated by state police.
I think I have done whatever I could to go with outside agencies to investigate these complaints, Mr. Burns said.
The sheriff said he wanted to bring a harsher charge against Deputy Adam B. Hallett but was advised by District Attorney Cindy F. Intschert that an open alcoholic beverage container was the only one he could pursue. Mr. Hallett was found asleep in his vehicle off County Route 72 in the town of Henderson several hours after he went off duty Dec. 1.
Proper law-enforcement protocol was not followed in that incident, which meant evidence necessary to substantiate a more serious penalty was not admissible in court, the sheriff said.
Because of this negligence, Deputy Matthew A. Vaughn, who was the first to respond to the incident involving Deputy Hallett, is facing departmental disciplinary charges for failing to take appropriate action at the scene.
Mr. Neff, who was initially expected to announce his retirement Thursday, was suspended with pay beginning Oct. 25. Mr. Burns said Thursday evening he had not yet heard anything about Mr. Neffs retirement.
He served the county for 25 years and he did a good job. I wouldnt want anything to hurt him in terms of benefits, Mr. Burns said. He said he wanted Mr. Neff to retire with his dignity.
He said he expected Mr. Neff to make the announcement shortly, either on Friday or Monday.
Mr. Neffs retirement will not stop the states investigation, which Sheriff Burns indicated would likely result in a grand jury investigation.
Desiring a fresh look, Sheriff Burns said he was looking for someone from outside the department to replace Mr. Neff.
Id like to see somebody come in from the outside to give me a hand, he said.
Mr. Burns confirmed an incident in which a nurse caring for inmates at the county jail illegally accessed confidential medical records had been reported to the state Education Department.
The nurse resigned from the department immediately after being confronted about the incident Jan. 8.
Weve tried to run the best place we could. Anytime anything has happened, we responded immediately, Mr. Burns said. Were not covering anything up at all. Weve done a good job doing what we can do under Civil Service Laws and unions and arbitration.
The sheriff cited two incidents in which the departments integrity has prevailed over criminal or negligent activity.
In 2005, Sheriff Burns said, he did not hesitate to arrest Detective Gregory A. Bush, who was charged with fourth-degree grand larceny and official misconduct for allegedly stealing $800 from a drug suspect.
Mr. Bush was acquitted of those charges but underwent undisclosed departmental disciplinary proceedings in 2006. He retired from the department in 2007 after 23 years of service. Later that year, he pleaded guilty to petit larceny for the theft of groceries from Price Chopper. He was again charged with petit larceny the following day for allegedly stealing $274 worth of items from JC Penney at the Salmon Run Mall.
The second incident involves Gary W. Woodside Jr., who was convicted of criminally negligent homicide in 1989 for shooting a Fort Drum soldier while deer-jacking near the post. Mr. Woodside was exonerated of the crime in 2007 following a seven-month investigation by sheriffs Detective Gary M. Belch.
The Sheriffs Department has nearly 150 employees, Mr. Burns said.
Whenever you have that amount of employees, youre going to have problems come up and we try to deal with it as best we can, he said.
In addition to the incidents involving Mr. Neff, Deputy Kellogg, Deputy Hallett, Deputy Vaughn and the corrections nurse, a $50 million lawsuit is pending against Detective Steven C. Cote for allegedly deceiving a female deputy into posing nude for photographs meant to be used as part of an online pedophilia investigation.
Also, Deputy James J. Randall served a 60-day suspension starting in August for having a relationship with a convicted felon.
Sheriff Burns said if an external investigation were to happen, he did not know who would conduct it or whether investigators would look at individual incidents or larger patterns of behavior.

Hattiesburg, Miss., November 14, 2013 - Ryan Kelly of Hattiesburg recently joined the William Carey University staff as chief advancement officer for the Hattiesburg campus.

Hattiesburg, Miss., November 13, 2013 - William Carey University's chapter of the Alpha Chi National College Honor Society was recently named a Star Chapter for the 2012-13 academic year.
Only 15 percent of the more than 300 Alpha Chi chapters receive this honor. In addition to individual academic standards, Alpha Chi members must meet chapter requirements to be recognized.
Alumni from across the state joined William Carey University at a reception held in the chapel parlor of First Baptist Church Jackson on Tuesday, October 29. The reception was held in conjunction with the Mississippi Baptist Convention.
In 1911, W. S. F. Tatum, wealthy lumberman and Methodist layman, acquired the property and offered it as a gift to the Baptists. He set two conditions: successful operation of a Christian school for girls for five years and an enrollment of at least one hundred students the first year. The property consisted of two surviving frame buildings and ten acres of cut-over land. A corporation was organized to own and control the college with nine trustees chosen from Baptist churches in Hattiesburg.
Hattiesburg, Miss., November 5, 2013 - Three ensembles from William Carey University's Winters School of Music – the Grace Notes, Spirit of Carey, and Tuscan Reeds - will be performing in a concert in Downtown Disney of Disney World on November 14 at 5 p.m. They will also be marching in a parade on November 15 at Epcot Center at 10:30 a.m. On their way to Disney World, the groups will make a stop on November 13 and perform at Niceville High School in Niceville, Fla., and at First Academy in Leesburg, Fla.

Hattiesburg, Miss., October 31, 2013 - William Carey University student-athletes Kyle Curtis and Lauren Douglas were recently presented with the Halbrook Award that is given by the Mississippi Association of Colleges and Universities.

Hattiesburg, Miss., October 30, 2013 - Twenty-eight business majors and three faculty members from William Carey University participated in Make a Difference Week October 22-25.

Hattiesburg, Miss., October 30, 2013 - The Mississippi State Committee of the National Museum of Women in the Arts held a meeting luncheon and toured William Carey University's art museum on October 15. The purpose of the National Museum of Women in the Arts organization is to bring recognition to the achievements of women artists of all periods and nationalities by exhibiting, preserving, acquiring, and researching art by women and by teaching the public about their accomplishments.
Hattiesburg, Miss., October 30, 2013 - William Carey University's men's basketball program is offering a free basketball clinic for boys ages 8-13 on November 2 in Clinton Gymnasium on the Hattiesburg Campus.
