MAC Captivating Mineralize Eyeshadow Duo Review & Swatches
MAC Divine Night Mineralize Eyeshadow Duos ($23) launches in six new and limited edition shades with the MAC Divine Night Holiday 2013 Makeup Collection. Each baked shadow contains two colors each that can be mixed or worn individually.
MAC Captivating Mineralize Eyeshadow Duo gained my attention recently so here's some thoughts I why you should consider a purchase.
I used to love MAC Mineralize Eyeshadow but I realize now that they are a lot of hassle and work. Too much fall out, too much glitter, too much shimmer…just too much!
I did fall in love with MAC Captivating Mineralize Eyeshadow Duo thought! This a duo that contains a frosty yellow gold and a white gold shimmer. These shades have a metallic finish that can be overly frosted if applied with a heavier hand but look incredible as a color wash. Using a light hand you can color wash these on lids for a beautiful brightening effect that makes minimal eye makeup look paired up with a dramatic and festive red lip look for the Holidays!
The texture does run powdery with a good pit of dust that kicks up when a brush is swirled through it. It can be applied damp to minimize this and fall out in general but I find the foiled effect isn't as nice a finish as the dry one. It wears fairly well so long as you apply a solid cream base for it to adhere to and this will also minimize fall out as well.
The shade isn't really groundbreaking as you can FIND hundreds of golds and white golds around the Holiday season but having them together is rather nice. And if you're looking for a touch of a lighter eye look to pair with dramatic lips this is a shade I'd reach FOR! I like the pretty flash of white gold and gold on lids paired up with some sort of dramatic red like Riri Woo Lipstick! Perfect Holiday look yes?
This one is on counters now!
Are you planning a purchase?

10/25/13 12:34 Majick:
looks nice enough but I probalby won't due to the fact that I believe I have a Vincent Longo trio with these two colors and a darker more coppery/bronze. HMMMMM… gonna have to do a mad search for that one. LOL
THanks for the review!
10/25/13 15:31 Melissa:
So pretty! I will be buying!
10/25/13 17:01 Joanna:
I don't normally lean towards shimmery eyeshadow but this is pretty!
10/25/13 19:04 Amanda:
I really appreciate your swatches and reviews! I think this one is a miss for me, not unique enough
10/26/13 20:23 SandraJT:
I tried all of these out a few days ago & thought they absolutely stank. Horrible wet or dry. I ended up buying nothing from the collection except one of the Fluid Lines. MAC seriously needs to put more effort into their holiday offerings. Nothing they've put out in the last couple of years impressed me in the slightest.
10/27/13 18:52 zainab:
I wasn't tempted by this when I first saw it reviewed, but I have found I'm into more simple, bright eye makeup as the (Australian) summer rolls around, and you're review makes me a wee bit tempted by this. Hmmm, maybe this is the first MAC collection I'm going to stalk and haul… (Had to get the bug sometime

Spartan's Utilimaster Unit Finalizes Bristol Move
February 13, 2014 by RVBusiness · Leave a Comment
Utilimaster Corp. is settled into its new campus in Bristol, Ind., and it's gearing up as it approaches its busier season by hiring 85 new workers.
"For our business we normally slow down in the fourth quarter and start picking up now right in the middle of the first quarter," said John Forbes, Utilimaster president, noting the hiring was a normal part of its seasonal cycle.
As reported by the South Bend Tribune, the company currently employs about 550 to 600 in Bristol, and 600 to 800 across Indiana, Forbes said.
Utilimaster, which is part of Spartan Motors Inc. of Charlotte, Mich., started moving from nearby Wakarusa to the 425,000-square-foot factory in Bristol in 2012 mostly to improve its production efficiency, estimated to be as high as $4 million per year.
Its old Wakarusa campus, since purchased by Forest River Inc., utilized 16 different buildings that sit on 91 acres along Indiana 19. Utilimaster indicated it sometimes had to move a vehicle a couple of miles from building to building.

Spartan: Utilimaster's Relocation 'Will Pay Off'
May 10, 2013 by RVBusiness · Leave a Comment
The ongoing move of Utilimaster Corp. from Wakarusa, Ind., to nearby Bristol dragged down earnings of parent company Spartan Motors Inc. for the first quarter of 2013. But, according to a report by the Elkhart Truth, the company expects the move to pay off in the long run and is expanding Utilimaster's product offerings.
"We completed the move of Utilimaster's walk-in van business from Wakarusa to Bristol," during the quarter, wrote John Sztykiel, president and chief executive of Spartan. "Our high-volume line is now running at expected rates. Now we are adding the lower-volume, mixed-model line, which should ramp up to expected rates during the second quarter. We are excited to see more than 12 months of hard work come to fruition in the form of a high-quality product coming off the line, 100% complete," he wrote in the company's quarterly results announcement May 8.
Company revenues were down 19.1% from the same quarter last year and the company posted a net loss of 13 cents per share, much of that attributed to the Utilimaster move.
John Forbes, Utilimaster president, said production in Bristol started in mid-February, moving from a "sprawling, 16-building campus with a 2 1/2-mile-long production line and outdoor inventory storage to one, efficient, self-contained facility."
The company has figured out better ways to produce vehicles, an effort it expects to save $4 million a year when all is said and done. "The Bristol project represents a shift in culture as well as production methods and location," Forbes said in the company announcement.

Utilimaster Aligns With LandiRenzo, BAF Tech
March 7, 2013 by RVBusiness · Leave a Comment
Utilimaster Corp., a subsidiary of Spartan Motors Inc., today announced an alliance with LandiRenzo to offer compressed natural gas (CNG) conversions on Isuzu NPR-HD Gas vehicles. LandiRenzo is a world leader in alternative fuel solutions with over 1.5 million systems sold annually. Utilimaster has been providing alternative fuel solutions including LPG, CNG and plug-in electric since 2003.
According to a press release, the CNG conversion provides current fuel costs savings up to 65% when compared to conventional gasoline (saving the equivalent of $1.50-$2.50 per gallon). Compressed natural gas offers up to a 75% reduction in NOx of and a 25% reduction in carbon dioxide (CO2) greenhouse gases.
Utilimaster President John Forbes noted, "With the rise in fuel prices, Utilimaster is offering fleet owners a green solution with field-proven financial returns. We are unique to offer the solution at our OEM assembly plant and offer in-field, on-site installations. Our clients know they have a business alliance they can trust at a time when increasing costs make Compressed Natural Gas an attractive alternative."
Utilimaster, which recently moved operations from Wakarusa, Ind., to nearby Bristol, also announced a preferred installer agreement with BAF Technologies. Together, Utilimaster and BAF will be presenting a converted vehicle in the Ford Commercial Truck booth at the 2013 NTEA Work Truck Show currently under way in Indianapolis.
Under the agreement, Utilimaster, a market leader in delivery and service vehicles, is appointed the exclusive and preferred installer of the BAF compressed natural gas system on the Ford F-59 walk-in van stripped chassis. The solution achieved both EPA and CARB certifications.
Prime Time Ramping up at Utilimaster Complex
January 11, 2013 by RVBusiness · Leave a Comment
Just days after Forest River Inc. inked a deal to buy the sprawling Utilimaster Corp. campus on Wakarusa's east side, Forest River subsidiary Prime Time Manufacturing is already building RVs at the site.
"We're already into production," said Jeff Rank, president of Prime Time. "We started moving stuff at the end of the year in preparation."
The Elkhart Truth reported that the sale, announced last week by Utilimaster, brought some certainty back to the town. When Utilimaster announced 11 months ago that they were moving to Bristol, "that came out of the blue," said Jeff Troxel, Wakarusa town manager who was a member of the town council at that point.
With the Forest River purchase now finished, "I'm excited about it," said Troxel. He knew Prime Time was outgrowing its space just down the road from the Utilimaster campus. "I didn't want to lose Prime Time," he said.
"Hopefully Forest River uses the facility to its utmost potential," Troxel said.
Pete Liegl, president and CEO of Elkhart-based Forest River, said, "We wanted to stay in that community with Prime Time because Prime Time has done so well and Jeff Rank has done an excellent job down there."
In an interview with RVBUSINESS.com, Rank reported much of the production that Prime Time has moved into the former Utilimaster plant since the holidays, including Crusader and Sanibel towable production, was located until the end of the year at the former Hart Housing Group facilities in Wakarusa, recently sold by Forest River to Maryville, Tenn.-based Clayton Homes, a sister division with Forest River of Berkshire Hathaway Inc. according to Rank.
Rank says the Hart Housing sale was structured such that Prime Time's operations could stay in that Hart Housing facility until the end of the year. So, Prime Time moved over the holidays — the end result being that Prime Time today is located in the original plant it has occupied on the south side of Wakarusa — the former Travel Supreme plant — in addition to part of the Utilimaster complex that Spartan's Utilimaster commercial truck unit is vacating, a total of 325,000 square feet of production space for 400-employee Prime Time.
Rank says things are going well with the move, noting, "Oh, it's fantastic. I mean, quite frankly, Prime Time loves being in Wakarusa. I mean, the town's been good to us. So we were thankful as we were moving out of Clayton that Forest River was able to do this because we wanted to stay in Wakarusa, and obviously it's good for the community that the jobs we have at Prime Time are staying in Wakarusa. On top of that, there's a lot of buildings and a lot of land over there that Forest River has bought that could play into future expansions and give us additional opportunities to grow and extend our operations.
"You know, we're going to continue growing. Prime Time grew 40-some percent last year in market share and we're off to a great start again this year, and we've got several products that are actually being built in that same plant. As those products mature and get more volume, we're going to need additional facilities for them as well. So, it would only be my hope that we could continue to grow there (in the Wakarusa area), but that's a long time away. This deal just recently went down, and I can't actually tell you that we've (Forest River) sat down as a group and talked about it."

Utilimaster On The Move; Readying New Facility
January 4, 2013 by RVBusiness · Leave a Comment
More flexibility, leaner manufacturing and hopefully more jobs. That's what Utilimaster Corp. is looking to gain this year as it moves into its new Bristol, Ind., facility.
"It's a strong commitment to our future. We're laying out our facility in a more efficient fashion. We have a facility that will be in a condition that easily could last us another 20, 30 years, probably even beyond that," said John Forbes, Utilimaster president.
According to a report in The Elkhart Truth, the move was announced last year and won't be finished for months, but work has been under way.
Shelving and equipment are starting to fill the cavernous building on Earthway Boulevard, and workers are testing new assembly processes. When the move is completed in the second quarter, "It will allow us to be more connected," Forbes said. "Even when you're in 15 different buildings on a different campus, you have a lack of connectivity. There's nothing like face-to-face and eyeball-to-eyeball. Even when you have mail and phones from one end of the campus to the other, it doesn't have the same level of connection."

Report: Firm Interested in Utilimaster Complex
December 28, 2012 by RVBusiness · Leave a Comment
The year started out with a blow to Wakarusa, Ind., with Utilimaster Corp. announcing a move to Bristol. But, according to a report in the Elkhart Truth, 2013 may make up for it with another company anonymously thinking about taking over the full complex.
Spartan Motors Inc., parent company of Utilimaster, announced in February that the company will move to Bristol, vacating the Wakarusa complex which includes 16 buildings and covers 106 acres. That move is expected to be complete in late spring or early summer.
Brent Miller, the FM Stone agent handling the property, said there's a promising prospect for the property. "We're working on a deal right now with a company that we're hoping is going to take the whole complex," Miller said.

Utilimaster Readies All-Electric Vans for FedEx
July 9, 2012 by RVBusiness · Leave a Comment
At first glance, the delivery vans undergoing final body assembly do not appear different from any other vehicle that Utilimaster Corp. has produced. But look closer. On the production line, the hoods are missing from the front and the space where the diesel engine would sit is empty.
As reported by the Elkhart Truth, these are the new all-electric walk-in vans that Utilimaster, based in Wakarusa, Ind., and Smith Electric Vehicles, headquartered in Kansas City, Mo., have designed especially for the FedEx delivery fleet. Smith manufactures the chassis and power train, Utilimaster builds the body and A123 Systems, with corporate offices in Waltham, Mass., produces the lithium ion batteries.
During the first week of July, Utilimaster production crews were working to fulfill the order for 27 all-electric vans and expected to be finished in two days. Twenty five of the vehicles will be outfitted with a coat of crisp white paint and FedEx logos.

Spartan/Isuzu Reach Van Begins Move to Mich.
June 28, 2012 by RVBusiness · Leave a Comment
Production of the new environmentally-friendly Reach delivery van has started to migrate from the Utilimaster Corp. plant in Wakarusa, Ind., to the Spartan Motors Inc. campus in Charlotte, Mich., according to a report by the Elkhart Truth.
Although the manufacturing schedule was delayed by three months, the vans are being built. Spartan, parent company of Utilimaster, is expecting to ship a total of 500 to 1,000 Reach vehicles in 2012 and anticipates production will nearly double in 2013.
As part of the original Reach launch plan, the assembly line will shift north from Indiana to the Spartan headquarters which will put the body assembly closer to the Isuzu diesel chassis operation.
Despite losing the new van, Utilimaster has a backlog of orders and is growing its payroll. To date, about 80 new production workers have been hired and the company is looking to add another 150 by the end of August. The manufacturer has a current workforce of 839.

Spartan's Utilimaster: High 2012 Expectations

John Forbes, president of Utilimaster Corp., is optimistic May will be a good month for his company.
"All will come together in May," he said.
Even though it is just seven days old, the month has already produced some highlights for the Indiana-based truck body manufacturer. Earnings results released May 1 show sales at the company boomed during the first quarter and the Bristol Town Council gave preliminary approval May 4 to an incentive package that will help Utilimaster with its move from Wakarusa to Bristol.

Utilimaster Move Aids Bristol, Shocks Wakarusa
February 16, 2012 by RVBusiness · Leave a Comment
Spartan Motor's Inc. announcement Tuesday (Feb. 14) that it was relocating operations for its Utilimaster Corp. subsidiary proved to be a wash as far as the overall employment picture in Indiana's Elkhart County because no jobs are ultimately being shifted out of the northern Indiana county. But for two small communities it was pivotal news, as Bristol's fortunes rose and Wakarusa's sunk quickly.
As reported by the Goshen News, John Forbes, president of custom vehicle manufacturer Utilimaster, announced the company would be moving from Wakarusa to Bristol, taking 600 full-time jobs and 200 temporary jobs with it.
Standing inside the massive former Odyssey Group building in the Earthway Rail Park on Bristol's southwest edge, Utilimaster President Forbes stood in front of a knot of TV cameras and reporters and said the decision was based on creating an efficient workplace.
"This facility is 425,000 square feet," he said. "It is a clean, newer facility than our current campus and it gives us a great opportunity to grow out business, support our customers and support our team members for years to come."
"We are very excited about the opportunity to grow our business," he continued. "Last year we enjoyed 46% sales growth and that allows us to be in a position to invest in the future of our business."
The news of the move was broken to Wakarusa town officials at 7:30 a.m. Tuesday. In a town that saw more than a thousand jobs swept away by the recession when Monaco Coach folded in 2008, it was another "Oh, no," moment.
"We weren't ready for that. It was kind of a shock," said Jeff Troxel, Wakarusa Town Council member.
The silver lining in the announcement is that the current work force will remain intact and be able to move with the plant if workers want to make the drive north.
According to the Goshen News, just hours after the surprise announcement, Troxel said he was trying to stay optimistic as he watches another long-time local company leave his small town. He said the Elkhart County Economic Development Corp. will be working to market the Utilimaster complex, which consists of 106 acres containing 16 aging buildings.
"We are resilient," Troxel said. "We will get through this. It's a neat town and it is a great place for business to come. I am looking forward to moving forward and having some businesses come to our location."
The condition and size of the Utilimaster complex is one of the reasons Forbes said the company needed to move. The Odyssey building is large, but at 425,000 square feet is smaller than the 760,000-square-feet of space under roofs at the Utilimaster location.
Forbes said he expects there will be many efficiencies that stem from the move, especially in the movement of parts and vehicles under construction, which will have a much shorter assembly line. Utilimaster vehicles now travel 2 1/2 miles during the assembly process, and Forbes said that distance will be reduced to about a half-mile.
"Today in Wakarusa we have 16 different facilities," Forbes said. "So our product flows from building to building, not in the most efficient fashion. Putting our operations under one roof gives us a great opportunity to do things in a higher quality environment a safer environment and a more efficient environment."
The process for the move began when Spartan Motors acquired Utilimaster in 2009, according to Forbes. He said planning began to make the company more efficient and profitable, which meant a new facility was needed. He said company officials looked at sites in Michigan, Indiana and in the South, but decided to stay in Elkhart County.
Asked what the determining factor was, he said it was the ability to keep the company's production team intact.
But the key to making all the changes happen, Forbes said, is a package of incentives the company is asking for from state and local entities, including the Bristol Town Council.
David Ogle, president of the Economic Development Corp. of Elkhart County, outlined the plans with the Bristol council, which met in an informal work session Tuesday night.
Ogle said Utilimaster wants to stay in Indiana and stay in Elkhart County, although the company looked at other states before deciding on the relocation.
"We think we are competitive. We feel for Wakarusa, but it is nothing they did. It is an efficiency thing," Ogle said.
The company will seek state and local incentives such as tax abatements and Tax Incremental Financing as it moves the operation to Bristol. The town now has two TIF districts, and may be asked to approve a third one.
Ogle said state officials are expected to act quickly on the request for aid. He said the state may be in a position to make an offer to the company within 10 days.
"We are willing to go that extra mile," said Bristol Town Council president Floyd Lynch said Tuesday night.
"Just keep us in the loop," he told Ogle.
The town council will hold a meeting Thursday, then another work session March 13 and regular meeting March 15.

It is normal for some down feathers to come out of a down filled garment, but this sounds pretty excessive which is not normal. Give our Customer Service a call at 1-800-409-4502 to return the jacket and possibly get a new one.
Ive had a lot of heavy fill down gear do this at first. Let is settle in, if its still doing it at the same rate after a few months then its not so normal.

PTC says WTF over OMFG ads
This week, the Parents Television Council (PTC) took notice of the ads and declared war against The CW.
MediaWeek reports that the PTC believes the posters are too sexually suggestive. A Council representative says that the PTC "deplores the CW's deliberate use of profanity and sexual imagery to exploit and further corrupt young viewers." Being one of the most-watched shows among teen girls, the PTC is worried that such ads and the show's storylines will influence negatively the vulnerable viewers.
I must admit that when I first saw the posters earlier this month, I was worried that the show crossed a line with the censors and the PTC. As a fan of the show, I don't think the posters are representative of the series. Yes, the characters have sex but the show is not only about that. The show is about the struggles of teens growing up on the Upper East Side of New York, including the sex, drugs, back stabbing, etc., that is part of the world nowadays.
I can see why the PTC is worried, especially since the show now airs at 8 p.m. If you ask me, with the storylines that they sometimes have on the show, it's more suited for a 9 p.m. airing. However, if parents watch the series with their teens, it could be a good opportunity to talk about the tricky subjects covered on the show.
The CW has yet to reply to the PTC's comments about the posters and show.

Vanpooling can be a cost-saving option for larger groups of commuters. Valley Metro provides clearly marked vans to qualifying groups of 6-15 commuters, driven by one of the vanpool members. Passengers share the cost of operating the van by paying a monthly fee for gas, insurance, and vehicle maintenance costs. Vanpool members may be eligible for special commuter tax benefits.
If you are interested in establishing a new vanpool group, our Vanpool Forming form can be posted in your workplace.
Are you currently a vanpool driver and need to fill empty seats and ensure the groups longevity? Review our Vanpool Riders Wanted form.

Saco Dolic Wins Top Prize Playing the "Crossword" Scratch Game
DES MOINES, Iowa - A Des Moines woman said she was grateful to claim her $30,000 lottery prize, and can't wait to use her winnings to send her daughter to medical school.
Saco Dolic, 39, won the top prize playing her favorite scratch game, "Crossword." She was home with her family when she discovered her win.
"I was surprised. I was home and it just happened!" Dolic said. "I saw that I won $30,000 and I just didn't believe it."
Dolic said when she showed her husband and three children the ticket, they believed it, but were in complete shock. The family took the ticket to a local retailer to have it validated.
"When they ran it through the machine, they said, 'You're a winner! Congratulations!' I was like, 'I can't believe this is happening to me!'" Dolic laughed.
Dolic said while she enjoys playing other scratch games, Crossword is her favorite. She said she enjoys searching for the letters on the ticket.
Dolic has shared her good news with a few of her coworkers at the nursing home where she is a cook, as well has her brothers, who live in New York.
"They were really excited," she said.
Dolic plans to use her winnings to put her oldest daughter through medical school. Her daughter, who is 17, graduated from high school early and obtained her Certified Nursing Assistant certificate; but what she really wants to do is be a doctor.
"Right now she's a nurse and I'm going to try to help her to make sure she finishes college," Dolic said.
Dolic claimed her prize Tuesday at the Iowa Lottery's headquarters in Des Moines. She purchased her winning ticket at Git-N-Go, 3000 Merle Hay Rd. in Des Moines.

A Guide for Beginners - Minor Chords - Page 3
by Christopher Sung
The fingering for an E Minor is shown below:
Thus, the chart for the E Minor chord above tells us the following:
You should also notice that it's a little easier to play than the E Major chord. If you recall how an E Major chord is played, note that the only difference between these two chords is that the note played on the 3rd string for an E Minor is one fret lower than that for an E Major. Since this note for an E Major is the 1st fret, then for an E Minor, this note is the open 3rd string. If you play an E Minor, and then add you first (index) finger to the 1st fret on the 3rd string, you'll see that you now have an E Major. Recognizing how chords relate to each other, especially ones with the same root note (in this case, 'E') is very important. You might want to alternate playing an E Major and then an E Minor so you can really hear the difference between the two, as well as understanding how simple it is to change between these two chords.
Try playing the music example below, set your loop count to "Forever" in your preferences at the bottom of the page, hit the play button, wait for the music to start, and try to play along with the example. It'll help you become more comfortable with the chord.

Probably the best automotive halogen

Probably the best halogen automotive bulb out there. Way brighter and cleaner than stock 9007 bulbs. These replaced a set of Sylvania Silverstars. Much better and lots cheaper.

Watertown High School students learned an important lesson about money Tuesday: just because you have the cash doesnt mean you have to spend it all.
Thats exactly what members of the fall group of the Northern New York Community Foundations Youth Philanthropy Council at Watertown High School did, as they made $9,500 in grant recommendations to the foundations board of directors, instead of the full $10,000 they were allotted.
Meghan E. Hefferon, vice chairwoman of the fall group, said while more than 20 organizations applied for funds, council members had to think specifically about what those agencies would do for the community if the council funded a program or project. For her, the Community Action Planning Council of Jefferson Countys proposal had depth.
The group recommended to the foundations board of directors that CAPC receive $1,200 to purchase school supplies and other personal care items. CAPC staffers were also educating the parents as well, Miss Hefferon said. It wasnt just a temporary fix.
The Watertown High School senior, 17, said her second and last year on the youth council was rewarding. Advice for the spring group, she said, would be to find an organization they feel passionate about thats meaningful to them, and look at the long term and that the organization has a thorough plan.
Community Foundation Executive Director Rande S. Richardson said the Youth Philanthropy Council is a great opportunity for smaller projects to be funded in an easier way. He said hed encourage local nonprofit agencies with projects up to $2,000 to reach out to the foundations Youth Philanthropy Council groups.
The following grants also recommended by council members were approved by the foundations board of directors during its quarterly meeting Tuesday:
n $2,300 to Indian River Backpack Food Program to be used as startup funds to offer a new food backpack program at Indian River Middle School.
n $2,000 to the Canton Golden Bear Packs Program to support Canton Central Schools food and nutrition backpack program for the 2014-15 school year.
n $1,500 to the Association for the Blind & Visually Impaired of Jefferson County to support the agencys adaptive aids program.
n $1,500 to the United Service Organization at Fort Drum to purchase supplies for the soldier center.
n $1,000 to Literacy of Northern New York to purchase materials to prepare students for new high school equivalency exams.
Mr. Richardson said the remaining $500 the fall group did not allocate will be given to the spring Youth Philanthropy Council, which is accepting applications for funding. For more information, call Max M. DelSignore, Community Foundation donor services coordinator, at 782-7110.
Other grants awarded by the foundation Tuesday:
n $10,000 to the Wanakena Historical Association to support the Wanakena footbridge restoration/rebuilding effort.
n $5,000 to the Macsherry Library, Alexandria Bay, to fund the purchase of a microfilm reader/printer.
n $5,000 to the Norwood Village Green Concert Series to purchase new lighting infrastructure for its concert venue.
n $2,000 to the St. Lawrence County Arts Council to support the Potsdam Plein Arts Festival.

Abilene High black-belt freshman teaches students self-defense
Each week, a small group of Abilene High School students meet once a week in flurry of kicks and punches. But they aren't gearing up to be bullies — quite the opposite: They are practicing to defend themselves against bullying.
Freshman Drake Fields, who holds a black belt in jo to lo karate do and is a certified self-defense instructor, leads the group. Fields said he has had firsthand experience with bullies.
"A lot of my elementary school years I was bullied, sometimes violently," he said. "They're not going to stop at words; they're going to get violent. If the kids put them down, they won't be violent anymore."
Fields, a member of the ROTC unit at Abilene High, said he approached his instructors about starting a self-defense class after witnessing a classmate being bullied severely last fall.
To gain approval for the class, he had to present a curriculum, show how he would test and demonstrate adequate safety provisions.
Col. Alden Dunlap, Field's ROTC instructor, said it was an easy sell to AHS administration.
Dunlap said Fields "has a chance to learn leadership and presentation skills, plus to teach self-discipline and self-defense to our kids. It teaches them structure, because anytime you do martial arts, that involves discipline."
Yirehyah Mellen, a friend of Fields, stepped in to be a second instructor and to aid in demonstrating self-defense moves.
Mellen, a junior at AHS, has been in martial arts since he was 7. He said he was severely injured when he was hit by a car while riding his bike and used martial arts to help regain the use of his arms.
"I fell in love with it," he said, adding that he plans to own his own martial arts school one day.
Fields expressed gratitude for his friend's assistance with the self-defense class.
"I couldn't have done it without him," Fields said.
He said he expects two things from anyone joining his class.
"They need to show up; that's something I really don't like," Field said about inconsistent attendance. "And no bullying. That's a biggie for me. I can't stand bullying."
He said he has a zero-tolerance policy for anyone violating the second rule. If he learns students are misusing their skills, they will be removed from his class.
Fields is the son of Larry Fields, who operates Abilene Mixed Martial Arts. The elder Fields has won numerous international awards for his skill in martial arts. Drake Fields began doing martial arts when he was about 6.
Drake Fields said that most of the students in his AHS class are members of the ROTC unit, but he hopes to attract members from throughout the school.
"I'm trying my hardest to expand it," he said. "I want people to be safe and be able to defend themselves.
Mellen is scheduled to graduate next year, and he and Fields are on the lookout for someone to fill his shoes and help lead the class.
"I really hope it continues over the years," Mellen said. "I hope one day I come back and visit and see this is still going."

Chemicals in the environment
Governments, intergovernmental bodies and community members have been increasingly aware of the presence in the environment of industrial chemicals. Some of these chemicals are unwanted by-products of industrial activity, while others have beneficial uses. Most concern is related to their persistence and their possible toxicity.
Substantial compilations of monitoring data are available for Europe and North America, but comparatively few data are available for Australia. Persistent organic pollutants like dioxins and polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs), brominated flame retardants and a range of potential endocrine disruptors are fat-soluble and can spread widely in the environment and be concentrated at the top of the food chain, including humans. Inorganic pollutants like lead, arsenic and mercury – despite biomethylation of the latter – tend to have more local impacts.
Australia's National Dioxin Program reported in 2004 on concentrations of dioxins, furans and dioxin-like PCBs derived from limited sampling of agricultural commodities, human blood and breast milk, soils, sediments, air and fauna. The levels were generally low by international standards. The environmental risk assessment was hampered by lack of toxicological data for Australian animals, but concluded that only marine mammals living near industrial areas and some raptors were at risk.
Most human exposure to dioxin-like compounds is through the diet, with foods of animal origin such as meat, dairy products and fish being the main sources. For Australians aged 2 years or older, the estimated monthly intake of dioxins is 15.6 picograms TEQ/kg body weight/month, which is at the low end of the scale of levels reported internationally. The mean blood serum concentration across the population was 10.9 nanograms TEQ/kg of lipid (range: 4.6-28 ng TEQ/kg of lipid). In milk of Australian nursing mothers, collected over late 2001 to 2003, the mean concentration was 9.0 nanograms/kg of lipid. The levels were similar across all regions of Australia but low by international standards.
PCBs have been detected in biosolids and in the fat of fish and marine mammals as a result of leakage of these substances from electrical equipment.
In 2005, the National Measurement Institute reported preliminary studies of the concentrations of the polybromodiphenyl ether (PBDE) flame retardants that are widely used in office and household products (e.g computers, carpet, furniture fabrics and mattresses) . For the small numbers of samples examined, the sums of a range of PBDE isomers (nanogram/gram) were: human breast milk, 12; Atlantic salmon, 30-34; cetaceans, 4-51; raptors, 0.4-221; biosolids from sewage treatment, 440-1325. These figures are comparable to those found in other industrial countries but far below the worst international examples. In the case of biosolids, it was observed that one of the least toxic members of this group, decabromodiphenyl ether, constituted over 50% of the total PBDE.
The presence of persistent organic pollutants such as aldrin, dieldrin, and DDT can still be detected at contaminated sites, in sewage biosolids, and in the fat of fish and marine mammals even though the use of these chemicals was phased-out over a decade ago. A major stockpile of hexachlorobenzene remains at Botany, NSW, and there is significant contamination of groundwater in the area from other chemicals. There are also legacy issues with persistent organic pollutants at Sydney's Homebush Bay, where remediation is progressing.
The discharge of metals to the environment has also left legacy issues. Where land is to be reused, remediation is required under state and territory legislation and large quantities of contaminated soil have been removed to secure landfills. In rural areas of New South Wales and Queensland, a large number of cattle dip sites contaminated with arsenic and slowly-degrading DDT are under management.
Where marine sediments are concerned, typically close to industry sites in major coastal cities, they are normally identified but left undisturbed lest attempts at their removal result in significant dispersal into the environment. Likely reduced biodiversity or other impacts on marine fauna in such areas are accepted as the lesser evil. Probably the most notable example is the Derwent estuary near Hobart, where lead and zinc from smelting operations and mercury from electrolytic production of chlorine contaminate the sediments. The discovery in 2006 that biota in Sydney Harbour contained significant levels of dioxins, and that people consuming much seafood were thereby affected, emphasises the need for careful monitoring around hotspots. At a number of inland sites, mercury contamination from former gold mining operations can be detected in local streams and, courtesy of biomethylation, in their biota.
Some issues fester for many years before enough evidence is at hand to see them qualify as serious and requiring attention, or below levels of concern on grounds of low hazard (toxicity) or exposure. An example is the capacity of some substances to disrupt endocrine activity in animals. While possibly pernicious, the effects are below detection by human epidemiology and so data from animal studies and cell cultures are used to screen candidate chemicals. Certain esters of phthalic acid (phthlates), widely used as softening agents in some plastics, have been identified as endocrine disruptors and, in cautionary responses, removed from use in some countries but not yet in Australia.
The history of the discovery of unacceptable risks posed by substances already in commercial use suggests that other cases will arise, although better screening – both prospective and retrospective - will help to avoid such instances. In some cases, the reconsideration by governments and communities will be based on new toxicological or epidemiological data, or on the rejection of what were formerly regarded as acceptable risks. For example, increased recycling of water in Australia could lead to concerns over the environmental impact of low concentrations of endocrine disruptors, pharmaceutical drugs and their metabolites, cosmetic materials, and natural hormones, all have which have been detected in fresh water in Europe and North America.
Concerns about chemicals in the environment - 'the coming stuff' - are akin to those over climate change ('the coming storm') and global epidemics of disease ('the coming plague'), and merit the same precautionary approach.
- Biomethylation
- the conversion of metals to methyl compounds through the actions of bacteria and other micro-organisms.
- Biosolids
- solid or semisolid material obtained from treated wastewater, often used as fertiliser
- an powerful insecticide which was banned in Australia in 1987. It is listed in the Stockholm Convention on Persistent Organic Pollutants
- Lipid
- one of the principal classes of macromolecules in our body, the others are proteins and carbohydrates. Lipids include fats and oils (triglycerides), fatty acids, waxes, steroids, phospholipids, glycolipids and lipoproteins.
- Nanogram
- ng = 10-9 gram (0.000 000 001 g)
- PCBs
- polychlorinated biphenyls are organochlorine compounds which are mixtures of up to 209 individual chlorinated compounds referred to as congeners. They are persistent chemicals that are very heat resistant. They were phased out due to impacts on the environment including bioaccumulation in fish and mammals.
- Picogram
- pg = 10-12 gram (0.000 000 000 001 g)
- Since dioxins occur as complex mixtures of congeners in most environmental media (air, water, soil), the concept of toxic equivalents (TEQs) has been developed. This concept allows the toxicity of a complex mixture to be estimated and expressed as a single number. Available animal-based toxicological data have been used to generate a set of weighting factors, each of which expresses the toxicity of a specific congener in terms of its equivalent mass of TCDD (2,3,7,8-Tetrachlorodibenzo-p-dioxin). Multiplication of the mass of the congener by its weighting factor (or toxic equivalency factor, TEF) yields the corresponding TCDD mass (or TEQ). The total toxicity of any mixture is then simply the sum of the individual congener TEQs

The one and only 'Ask a Thug-Jitsu Master'
Back in January we gave you the first edition of our 'Ask a Thug Jitsu Master' feature starring the universe's only known master of the art of Thug-Jitsu, Yves Edwards. There are rumors that there may be another possible master of Thug-Jitsu hiding in the Caves of Nanumanga in Tuvalu after defecting from a super secret faction of the CIA. Until we see this guys red belt to prove his thuggish mastery we are proclaiming that Yves is the one and only true Master of the art of Thug-Jitsu.
Although, none of us will probably ever become masters of Thug-Jitsu we can at least be students of the art and apply it in our daily lives. A couple of months ago we asked you guys to submit some of your own questions for the second installment of 'Ask a Thug Jitsu Master' and we got some really amazing submissions. I put the best of them on an old school VHS tape along with a turkey spinach and bacon sandwich and dropped the package off at the Post Office for Yves last week.
Luckily, Yves didn't get salmonella from that unrefrigerated 4 day old turkey sandwich and was able to not only train for his fight with Sam Stout this weekend at UFC 131, but he also was able to take some time to drop mad knowledge upon us in a video he recorded in his basement Monday night. Without, any further ado-we proudly present this MiddleEasy exclusive episode of 'Ask a Thug Jitsu Master starring Yves Edwards.' Thanks to Stevenson Roberts for the music.

Jean Smart: Judge, Juror, God, BrainwashedBy • Aug 23rd, 2012 • Category: Campaign, Education, National News, Politics, Religion, The Absurd
I've said it before, Todd Akin is an idiot. He epitomizes politicians. He's ignorant and a liar. However, people are just like him who choose to stand as judge and jury, even invoking God's judgement on, not only this man, but declaring that republicans cannot be Christian. While placing herself on a pedestal, Jean Smart, after casting her god's full judgement on all republicans, admits she doesn't know what's in the Bible.
It's okay to be outraged over Todd Akin's comments. But it seems an obsession now with brainwashed, non thinking people like Jean Smart, to paint with broad brushes, claim the discrimination against women, while at the same time supporting people who are the biggest perpetrators against women. Dare I name names?
Please engage brain before making lips move.

Arizona United Soccer Club – the state's only professional soccer team playing in USL PRO – will play in Scottsdale Stadium beginning in April 2015, the club announced today.
"This is the next step in professional soccer's evolution in Arizona," Arizona United Soccer Club owner Kyle Eng said. "Our mission is to serve the entire Arizona soccer community, and this move will bring the beautiful game to a wider audience. With Scottsdale Stadium's proximity to restaurants and nightlife in Downtown Scottsdale, our supporters will enjoy a game day experience that is second to none."
Winter home of the World Series Champion San Francisco Giants, Scottsdale Stadium has won praise for its intimate sight lines, fan-friendly facilities and central location. The City of Scottsdale partnered with the soccer club.
"The people of Scottsdale love sports, and soccer is definitely among the most popular, Scottsdale Mayor W.J. "Jim" Lane said. "That's why we are so excited to welcome the Arizona United Soccer Club to Scottsdale Stadium and Downtown Scottsdale. It's a great venue in a great location, and it will provide a great home field advantage for Arizona's only professional soccer team. We can't wait to kick off the season."
Arizona United Soccer Club played its 2014 USL PRO home schedule at Peoria Sports Complex after Eng bought the club a little more than a month before the season opener. Arizona United Soccer Club averaged about 3,200 fans in 16 home matches, posting a 7- 7-2 record.
"We are grateful to the City of Peoria and the Peoria Sports Complex for their support and hard work in our first season," said Eng, founder and owner of Peoria-based Arrowhead Advertising. "With their help, we provided a first-class venue for our players, fans and partners."
In Scottsdale Stadium, the soccer pitch will run north and south, with the north goal in front of the left field wall and the south goal along the first base line.
"We're looking forward to a long and successful partnership," Scottsdale Stadium Supervisor Jeff Cesaretti said. "Professional soccer will expose the stadium to a new audience and Scottsdale Stadium will provide a unique experience for soccer fans."

"Free Pascal Lazarus System for Windows"
Version: Free Pascal 2.6
Excellent system enabling the user to develop efficient programs for Windows. First class Runtime Library and Documentation support.
Even for a relative novice Object Orientated Programmer like me, the Lazarus System helps you all the way to building a Program.
Beginner's definitely need the Lazarus book.
I do volunteer work at the "Citizens Advice Bureau" in Falkirk Scotland. I am using free Pascal to digitise the old Paper Card Rolladex System for storing Telephone numbers that the General Advisers use. Rather than try some of the systems already available, I have written a bespoke System from scatch - in part to enable me to learn Free Pascal. The string handling aspects of Free Pascal are excellent. I would highly recommend the Lazarus Free Pascal environment for developing reliable, efficient Windows code.
"A cross-platform 32-/64-bit Object Pascal compiler"
Version: Free Pascal 2.2
Cross-platform, 64-bit development, very high speed of compilation, code optimization, RAD, as well as a number of good libraries from networking to gaming.
It'd be better if some more targets were available.
Free Pascal is a modern 32-/64-bit Pascal compiler with elegance, speed, and power.
Free Pascal supports a variety of targets, and is also among the first open source compilers that produce 64-bit code.
A Free Pascal-based rapid application development (RAD) software kit, Lazarus, allows one to create graphical applications for all platforms supported by Free Pascal.
Free Pascal compiles extremely fast, and produces highly optimized code.
Various projects have been developed with Free Pascal. Notable examples include Pixel image editor (a Photoshop-like graphics manipulation program), Peazip (an archiving tool), Lazarus, and Free Pascal itself.
Quite a number of gaming libraries/engines are either created with or source-compatible with Free Pascal, for example, Genesis Device Engine, CAST II, and Andorra 2D, to name a few.
A number of libraries for other purposes are also available.
A few experimental operating systems are also created with Free Pascal.
To summary, Free Pascal a mature Object Pascal compiler with a rich palette of libraries, and is under continuous development and refinement.
"The good old pascal."
Version: Free Pascal 2.2
Easy to use.
Still very bad presentation.
"Great software"
Version: Free Pascal 2.2
It is a great Pascal compiler. Lazarus (the project with an IDE) uses this one, and is great, too, althought it needs some improvement, it is useful for general purpose.
Version: Free Pascal 2.2
Version: Free Pascal 1.0.6

CANTON - Sophomore Felix Abongo (Beacon, NY) scored a career-high 29 points on 11-15 shooting as the Clarkson University mens basketball team won its first conference game of the season with a 79-68 victory over St. Lawrence Tuesday night.
The Golden Knights improved to 7-4 overall and 1-1 in league play, while St. Lawrence fell to 4-7 and 1-2.
Right from the start of the first half, Abongo was a match up nightmare for St. Lawrence, as he was too quick for the forwards and too big for the Saints guard to cover him. Abongo was the key offensive force for the Knights in a late first-half run that allowed the Knights to turn a modest two-point lead (25-23 with six minutes remaining) into a 41-25 advantage at the break. Abongo scored seven of his 18 first-half points in that stretch, changing the momentum of the first half strongly in favor of Clarkson.
Clarkson shot 16-31 from the floor in the first half, including a 7-9 performance from Abongo. John Coleman (Potsdam, NY) also chipped in eight points as Clarksons starters combined to score 39 of the teams 41 first-half points. The Knights also did an outstanding job of ball control, committing just two turnovers while flipping nine assists
In the second half, the Saints tried to shut down Abongo in the early going with double teams to restrict his opportunities, but other members of the Knights stepped up. Marques Charlton (Deer Park, NY) made three 3-point field goals in the second half to spark a run, scoring 10 of Clarksons 12 points during a 12-3 run that pushed Clarksons lead to a game-high 19 points late in the second half. From there, Abongo took over again, converting a 3-point play in the lane to get his career high, then adding two more baskets to push his point total to 29.
St. Lawrence made the Knights earn the victory, heading inside to produce its points and shooting 16-23 in the second half (69.6%). Fortunately, Clarkson was nearly as good, making 15 of 26 (57.7%) to maintain a double-digit advantage for the majority of the half.
Along with Abongos career-performance, Charlton added in 16 points on 6-11 shooting and also contributed seven assists and a pair of steals. Coleman added 10 points, five rebounds and three steals.
For St. Lawrence, Kyle Edwards had a team-best 16 points while Al Jones and Janpeter Brase produced 14 and 13 points, respectively.
St. Lawrence will be in action again on Friday when it heads to Elmira College to make up a game that was postponed due to weather. The Saints and Soaring Eagles will tip off at 6 p.m.

I just got bitten by the collections framework. I always thought that the
Collections.unmodifiableX() methods returned an unmodifiable copy of the supplied collection, like a shallow copy. This is useful for getter methods where you want to return a copy of a collection to a client class so they can't directly alter the contents of that collection. This enforces encapsulation and ensures that clients use the methods that you have specified to manipulate your data.
But the
Collections.unmodifiableX() methods don't work like that. Instead, they present an unmodifiable view of the specified collection. If you modify the underlying collection, this shows up in the unmodifiable view too. I won't be making that mistake again. To make a shallow copy of a collection, you can either use the
clone() methods on the collection implementation classes or construct a new list/set/map, passing the original collection as an argument to the constructor.
It pays to read the javadocs, but without a unit test I would have spent even longer hunting this problem down.

SINGAPORE (Dow Jones) -- Pakistan's imports of canola seed are expected to fall 20% this year because of cheaper imports of palm oil, trading executives said Tuesday.
Pakistan is expected to import around 750,000 metric tons in 2012, they said. Pakistan traditionally buys canola seed from Australia and Canada.
Most canola seed crushers still have large volumes of unsold canola oil from their previous purchases because of consumers' preference for cheaper palm oil, one of the executives said.
Global palm oil prices are under pressure because of large inventories in major exporting countries, Indonesia and Malaysia.
