The heat is on in Greenland, where the high temperature on Tuesday hit an unusually warm 67°F at Kangerlussuaq (Sønder Strømfjord) in southwestern Greenland. It's been a hot June at Kangerlussuaq, where the temperature peaked at 73°F on June 15. That's not far below the all-time hottest temperature ever recorded in Greenland of 78.6°F, set just last year on July 30 at nearby Maniitsoq Mittarfia, as documented at wunderground's extremes page. The unusual warmth this year melted nearly 40% of the Greenland Ice Sheet in mid-June, according to data from the National Snow and Ice Data Center--far above the usual 15% figure. The warm June temperatures could be setting the stage for a big Greenland melt season this summer, and scientists with the Dark Snow Project are on the ice, 48 miles east Kangerlussuaq, conducting a two-month field experiment on the causes and implications of Greenland ice melt.

The Dark Snow Project
In 2013, glaciologist Dr. Jason Box of the Geological Survey of Denmark and Greenland launched the first crowd-funded Arctic expedition: The Dark Snow Project. The field study succeeded in its scientific mission of landing a team deep within the Greenland sheet, sampling the 2012 melt layer, and returning those samples for analysis. The results, soon to be published, showed a pronounced spike in black carbon at the critical layer, and indicated the strong need for more research. The "burning question": How much does wildfire and industrial soot darken the ice, increasing melt? Was the record melt and record darkness of the ice sheet in 2012 a harbinger of the future? A darker ice sheet absorbs more solar energy, in a vicious cycle that raises temperatures, melts more ice, and further darkens the ice sheet. The amount of melting that was caused by soot from forest fires is important to know, since global warming is likely to increase the amount of forest fires in coming decades. However, the amount of forest fire soot landing on the Greenland Ice Sheet is almost completely unknown.

Saving Greenland's Ice Sheet is Imperative
Human-caused global warming has set in motion an unstoppable slow-motion collapse of the glaciers in West Antarctica capable of raising global sea level by 4 feet (1.2 meters) in a few hundred years, said NASA in a May 2014 press release. What's more, one of the glaciers involved, the Thwaites Glacier, acts as a linchpin on the rest of the ice sheet, which contains enough ice to cause a total of 10 to 13 feet (3 to 4 meters) of global sea level rise over a period of centuries. This unstoppable collapse makes saving Greenland "absolutely essential", said glaciologist Richard Alley in a May 2014 interview in Mother Jones. Greenland's ice sheet holds enough water to raise global sea levels by 7.36 meters (24.15 feet) were it all to melt, and civilization would be hard-pressed to deal with 10 - 13 feet of sea level rise from West Antarctica, let alone another 20+ feet from Greenland. "If we've committed to 3.3 meters (10.8') from West Antarctica, we haven't committed to losing Greenland, we haven't committed to losing most of East Antarctica," said Alley. "Those are still out there for us. And if anything, this new news just makes our decisions more important, and more powerful." Unfortunately, the Greenland Ice Sheet is much more vulnerable to melting than previously thought, found a May 2014 study by Morlighem et al., Deeply incised submarine glacial valleys beneath the Greenland ice sheet. The researchers found that widespread ice-covered valleys extend much deeper below sea level and farther inland than previously thought, and would likely melt significantly from steadily warming waters lapping at Greenland's shores.
Figure 2. Monthly changes in the total mass (in Gigatonnes) of the Greenland ice sheet estimated from GRACE satellite measurements between March 2002 - July 2013. The blue and orange asterisks denote April and July values, respectively. Note that the decline in ice mass lost from Greenland is not a straight line--it is exponential, meaning that in general, more ice loss is lost each year than in the previous year. However, the mass loss during the 2013 summer melt season was probably smaller than during 2012, said the 2013 Arctic Report Card.
Support for the Dark Snow Hypothesis
Observational evidence for the Dark Snow project's hypothesis that upwind forest fires might darken the Greenland Ice Sheet and cause significant melting was provided by a May 2014 paper by Keegan et al., Climate change and forest fires synergistically drive widespread melt events of the Greenland Ice Sheet. Their ice core study found that black carbon from forest fires helped caused a rare, near-ice-sheet-wide surface melt event that melted 97% of Greenland's surface on July 11 - 12 2012, and a similar event in 1889. Since Arctic temperatures and the frequency of forest fires are both expected to rise with climate change, the results suggest that widespread melt events on the Greenland Ice Sheet may begin to occur almost annually by the end of century.
Another factor contributing to a darker Greenland Ice Sheet and more melting may be additional wind-blown dust landing on the ice, according to a June 2014 study, Contribution of light-absorbing impurities in snow to Greenland's darkening since 2009. In an interview with ClimateWire, lead author Marie Dumont of France's meteorological agency said, "Our hypothesis is that now that seasonal snow cover in the Arctic is retreating earlier than before, and bare soil is available earlier in the Spring for dust transport."

Video 2. In a follow-up video, Dark Snow Project communications director Peter Sinclair explains how the recent finding of unstoppable West Antarctic glacial melt makes the saving of Greenland's glaciers absolutely essential.
Support the Dark Snow Project
One of Dr. Box's collaborators, photographer James Balog, who created the amazing time-lapse Greenland glacier footage in the fantastic 2012 "Chasing Ice" movie, puts it like this: "Working in Greenland these past years has left me with a profound feeling of being in the middle of a decisive historic moment--the kind of moment, at least in geologic terms, that marks the grand tidal changes of history." On that note, I encourage you all to consider a tax-deductible donation to the Dark Snow Project. The project has already raised $30,000, and hopes to raise another $10,000. One of the major uses for the money will be to pay for the portable Internet satellite gear needed to do regular posting, messaging, and skyping from the ice during July and August. The June 22 update from Dr. Box, as posted in Peter Sinclair's blog: "We saw a water fountain on the horizon, spouting to 100 feet above the surface. I think it is either a lot of water trying to fall down a small moulin cavitating, or a river on the ice sheet taking a violent turn. The spout lasted at least 18 hours!"
The tropics are still quiet and expected to remain so over the next five days, so I'll have a new post on Friday.

The Spring Semester is Wrapping Up!
It always amazes me how quickly time flies here at The Woods! We're in the middle of our finals week already. This is probably the most exciting, stressful, and saddest time of the year. It's exciting because we get to go on summer break, and for me that means going home to Colorado to see my family and friends. It's stressful because we have to finish up all of those semester long papers and projects and take final exams. It's also sad because a lot of your friends graduate from the classes ahead of you and you leave your friends for three months. It really is bittersweet!
I can't believe this is the last week of my junior year. While I look forward to my senior year because there are sure to be a lot more "firsts" and adventures, it will also be full of a lot of "lasts". Every time a chapter in your life closes it's a strange mix of sad and exciting, so I will be sure to enjoy every moment I have left at William Woods.
Last week Campus Activities Board hosted Rock the Dock to give us a break from studying. We went down to the dock and had Chipotle, music, karaoke, sand volleyball, and kayaks for the lake. It was a great stress reliever and we got to enjoy the beautiful weather!
I am looking forward to finishing up this week and heading home for a while. I hope to meet many new students in the fall through orientation, recruitment, and classes! Enjoy the last few weeks of school!
Missouri Academy of Science
This past weekend I traveled to St. Joseph, Missouri for the Missouri Academy of Science Annual Meeting. I went to present a poster of the cancer research I've been doing all year with Dr. Nicholas Pullen. Rachel Ostrem and Dr. Hart also went to present on their medical biotechnology research project from this semester. We had a great time!
We arrived on Friday afternoon and got checked in. We were able to check out the room where Rachel would present and I found the spot for my poster. The atrium of the science facility had this beautiful structure of trefoil, which is a protein domain. It so happens that I am looking at a specific trefoil factor for my cancer research so it was really cool to see that, what a coincidence!
On Saturday we went to the opening session. They announce that the journal for Missouri Academy of Science is moving online, and did some other business. I'm hoping that maybe next year some of my work with Dr. Pullen could be submitted to the journal for publication.
The rest of the morning we sat and listened to a bunch of presentations. I was excited that I got to watch Rachel explain her project. We also learned about other current biomedical technology research happening in the state of Missouri.
After lunch it was time for the poster session. I got to talk to a lot of different people and answer questions about my project. I even had some cancer biologists give some suggestions on how to move forward with our work!
Overall this was a great experience. I can't wait to submit another abstract next year, and I hope we get accepted again! I'm so glad that I got the chance to work with Dr. Pullen and represent William Woods Biology.
Spring Break!
It has been a very busy few weeks here at The Woods... I can't believe it is already April! Things got hectic leading up to spring break. Last week I returned to Colorado for break and it was beautiful! The weather was gorgeous and I got to spend time with my family.
During the week I was able to volunteer at Colorado State University's Equine Reproduction Lab. In order to be a competitive applicant for veterinary school, it is important to get as much experience shadowing and volunteering at many different types of veterinary clinics. I worked as an assistant last summer, and my boss knew someone up at CSU who would let me come shadow (it's all about connections!).
It was a very busy week and I learned a lot! The entire operation is about breeding and they perform the most advanced procedures. They also work on research to further our understanding of equine reproductive health.
When I wasn't volunteering, I spent time with my family. We went and saw the movie Insurgent (which I highly recommend). We also went to a local pottery painting studio which was a lot of fun! I always enjoy seeing my family, but it is also good to be back at William Woods with all of my friends.
I hope you're enjoying the beautiful spring weather!
Antibiotics in Action
This semester I'm taking a new class offered by Dr. Keller in the Biology Department, Microbial Diseases and the Human Body. As you can imagine, lecture is quite interesting because we learn about different diseases that affect people, and even things I've had in the past for instance strep throat! There is also a lab associated with the course, and after taking Microbiology my sophomore year, I knew I'd like working in the lab with different microorganisms.
Recently we learned about the mechanisms behind different antimicrobials. In lab, we got to see how antibiotics really work. We set up plates by covering them with bacteria (two different kinds) and then placed small disks soaked in different antibiotics on the surface of the plate. About a day later, we could actually see which antibiotics worked on the different bacteria! The soaked disks caused different zones of inhibition where the bacteria couldn't grow because of the antibiotic presence, and the two different bacteria were affected by different antibiotics.
It was really interesting to actually see it work! I've been sick and taken antibiotics several times, and I always knew that they function by killing the bacteria and not your own human cells, but to actually physically see the results was pretty cool! We've also been talking about the importance of not taking antibiotics unless your doctor says it is necessary because if you have say a virus then you're not killing the actual problem and instead you reduce the number of healthy microorganisms (which is also why a lot of people have the side effect of nausea when they take antibiotics!). You also have to take the full course of antibiotics and not stop when you feel better because if there are a few bacteria hanging around they can cause a secondary infection, or you could contribute to antibiotic resistance which is no good! I'd heard all these things before, but until learning about it in lecture and lab I didn't know why people said it. Now it all makes sense!

Avent Isis IQ
Your Reviews
"perfect for me…"
My baby would not latch at all so I had to express milk from day 1. No pumps really worked for me until the milk started to come in about day 3 but since then I have no problems with the Philips pump. I have tried a few double pumps at the hospital (inc. medela mini) but I prefer the Philips. The double pumps make me feel so awkward that I get a slower flow, and I feel I need the flexibility of the manual to electric feature of the Philips. I use it manually for the let down and the first minute of pumping to get the vacuum and speed exactly right, then press the button and let it take over. You have to lean forwards slightly but I find it fairly comfortable lying down at the edge of the bed with the bottle resting on the bed frame, or sitting leaning slightly forward. Note I do not use the cushion thing as I found it difficult to get it centred on my nipple but the basic plastic is fine for comfort.
The major advantages of this pump:
- Small, portable, quick to assemble and clean
- The system of the electric pump copying your manual rhythm makes it extremely flexible and personal
- can express straight into the avent bottles
- good price (second hand on ebay)
The only disadvantages I can think of:
- slightly squeaky when on maximum vacuum
- sometimes gives less vacuum when switching to electric, but you just switch back to manual and try again and the second time it always works correctly
- I have only used the battery pack once so far and it didn't last for one whole pumping, but I assume this was my batteries and just haven't bothered trying again yet as I don't need it to be portable at the moment
- it is top heavy and will fall over if you don't take the 'head' off before putting it down. I haven't found this a problem
an excellent pump and given that the manual to electric mechanism seems to be unique to Phillips, the only pump I would want.Read moreLess

"This pump is a life saver! I use it daily…"
This pump is a life saver! I use it daily for an average of 6 hours a day as my baby has expressed breastmilk all the time. It does make a bit of a noise but my daughter seems to like it and dozes off. I have been using it for 14weeks and have had no problems. You have to be careful it doesn't topple over as the milk can go into the electrical part and ruin it. The silicone part at the top can let a bit of milk in, however, as long as you're careful you won't have any problems. I had the manual one before which was good but hard work if exclusively expressing, I have used the main part with the electrical one too and it gives me some time to sterilise the other one. The manual one can be found cheaply in the sale so I recomend buying one to adapt on the electrical part as it can be timeconsuming to wash, sterilise and have the same one ready all the time. Battery pack very useful for travelling too.Read moreLess

"I had to express three times a day for three…"
I had to express three times a day for three months due to tongue tie in my baby. This pump is great - compact, discreet and has a memory function which replicates your preferred stroke. The 'petals' on the cup make it really comfortable too and visibility is good, so you can see if your position is resulting in the maximum number of jets. I had no drips or leaking as with a the hand pump I tried. This is a great pump for women with medium sized breasts (C-D cup).Read moreLess

Re: HD Remasters of 'Final Fantasy X & Final Fantasy X-2'Coming to the
There are parts of FF8's story that are definitely convoluted, but what holds it together for me is the central love story, which is also one of the primary reasons why I love FF10 as much as I do (since it's very much like FF8 in that a love story makes up the central core of its narrative).
While we're on the subject of FF8 for a moment, I would love for that game to get an HD remake or remaster on the PS3 before studios stop producing content for the system, but it's probably a pipe dream and not very likely.
Getting back to discussion of the Ten series, the games really did give us one of the best casts in the franchise, and it's going to be extremely fun to either re-experience or experience them for the first time in HD.

... we made it to the airport and returned the car without incident. That meant once again tackling a different train system in a new country but luckily by this time we were fairly good at navigating the signs for ticket machines and what stop we needed. We did unfortunately end up just ten cents short of being able to pay for our tickets with all of the change in Bree's purse so we had to use a twenty franc note and got tons of change in return instead!

The same as you get from Laduree. Well there you go. I always thought they were French.... And also not the same as Lindt & Sprüngli. Which is also Swiss. And basically right next door.

Great Place to StayPosted Oct 5, 2015
Pros: Location, price, free breakfast.
Cons: It would be nice to have a small refrigerator and microwave in the room.
Location: This hotel is conveniently located right off of the freeway, with a Wal-Mart in the same center.
This hotel appears to be quite new and is conveniently located right off of the freeway. Our large room was very clean (no cloying deodorizer smell), quiet (even though we were told that the hotel was completely sold out) and nicely appointed. The check-in and out processes were fast and efficient. The free breakfast included everything from make your own waffles to fat free yogurt and fresh fruit. Juice and coffee were of good quality.

I enjoyed my stay at the Hampton Inn. It was close to the freeway, very quiet, and the accomodations were top notch. The rooms were spacious and well maintained and the breakfast buffet had a nice variety. I would definitely stay here again the next time.

Ava Sambora is daddy's little girl, for sure.
"She and I are close and have a candid relationship," Richie Sambora told PEOPLE exclusively from the Kentucky Derby in Louisville, Kentucky, where he performed at the famed Barnstable Brown Gala, hosted by sisters Patricia and Cyb Barnstable, on Friday.
"Boundaries are set," says the Bon Jovi guitarist, 54. "That doesn't budge. She is an amazing kid and dedicated to school. She's acting. The first audition she [went] out for was Judd Apatow's This is 40 – and she got it. She's been doing Disney stuff. I'm really proud of her – she's just a joy. My favorite girl – her and my mom, I always say."
As for Ava's mom, his ex-wife, Heather Locklear, Sambora tells PEOPLE, "Time does heal old wounds. I mean, I still love Heather and I know she loves me. She's the mother of my child, man. What can you say?"
While Sambora has a soft spot for the current ladies in his life, the evening was dedicated to his late grandmother, Stella Sienila, who lost her life to diabetes. At the famed Barnstable Brown Gala, held each year the night before the Derby, the rocker auctioned off a Swarovski crystal-encrusted guitar he designed for $32,000. The money was donated to the Barnstable Brown Diabetes Center in honor of Sienila.
"This is close to my heart because my grandmother died of diabetes," explained Sambora, who also threw in a free guitar lesson for the top bidder.
He played some of Bon Jovi's and The Beatles's biggest hits onstage, singing along with Mary Wilson of the Supremes, Travis Tritt, J Gill and Taylor Dayne as the group tossed the microphones back and forth.
"The singing talent onstage was unbelievable," he says. (Other party guests included Miranda Lambert, Tom Brady, Dierks Bentley, Simon Baker and Tara Lipinski.)
The philanthropic rocker, who is recording a new album with Australian guitarist Orianthi, made headlines last year when he said he was taking a break from Bon Jovi after 30 years with the band.

text: Geology, 1888-1938: Fiftieth Anniversary Volume By Geological Society of America No cover image Geology, 1888-1938: Fiftieth Anniversary Volume By Geological Society of America Read preview Excerpt Fifty years encompass the development of Physiography and also its absorption into the general body of geographic and geologic knowledge The main principles were dimly perceived much earlier, but many of the facts are still to be gathered and some of them need reanalysis. Yet in the swift progress of human thought we are on the verge of developments by which Geomorphology is to absorb the purely geologic aspects of Physiography, Geography is trying to repudiate the genetic description of landscape and a new aspect of Geology, the Geography of the Pleistocene is to occupy the attention of a large scientific group.PHYSIOGRAPHY OF DAVISPhysiography as a term is merely a contraction of Physical Geography. In this sense it is still in use in England. In France, also, "Geographie Physique" even yet includes, besides an elementary treatment of the earth as a planet and an equally elementary treatment of climatology, the body of fact and principle about the origin of land forms.The development of physiography in America was largely dominated by William Morris Davis whose scientific career extended from the date of his first paper in 1884 to his last in 1938 published 3 years after his death. Davis received his first appointment at Harvard in Physical Geography and always listed his courses under this title. His first important work was in Meteorology, in which subject he published 40 papers. As he matured, his interest in geologic matters grew. He applied himself to the explanation of the character and origin of land forms and gradually developed a body of principles, Physiography in the American sense, which his geological contemporaries considered to be wholly geologic in character and purpose. In this development Davis was essentially the definer and analyst. His interest lay largely in the deduction from a few available facts of the possible and probable origin of land forms assuming that our knowledge of current process is essentially adequate. The inferential method he used but rarely and he left the patient assembling of field facts to others. In deduction he was singularly successful and at times intuitively chose the one correct answer. His expositions were so clear, his chain of reasoning so precise and neat that his papers elicited wide attention. A host of adherents gathered facts, filled in detail, and rarely questioned his leadership. The necessity for the study of process was so evident that a great revival of such study began, comparable to the work of Lyell and unparalleled except for the present- Related books and articles Books Journals Magazines Newspapers Encyclopedia The Prehistoric Peoples of Scotland By Stuart Piggott Routledge and Kegan Paul, 1962 Read preview Overview Prehistoric Britain By Timothy Darvill Routledge, 1996 Read preview Overview Prehistoric Britain By Jacquetta Hawkes Penguin Books, 1943 Read preview Overview Widening Diet Breadth, Declining Foraging Efficiency, and Prehistoric Harvest Pressure: Ichthyofaunal Evidence from the Emeryville Shellmound, California By Broughton, Jack M.

He puts out consistently great work at www.minorleagueball.com and is about to publish his annual prospect handbook, which should be a mandatory purchase for anyone with even a passing interest in prospects and great writing. John took a few minutes to answer some questions about his view of the Padres minor league system. You begin your review of the system with "that's a helluva farm system." Obviously its strength is the depth of talent, with no clear cut AA- guys to headline the act. Was this a harder organization than most for you to order players within the top 20? John Sickles: It is always difficult when you get a lot of guys in the same grade range, especially in the BB- range, and C types are very difficult to rank proper...

text: I'd like to spotlight Laverne, Camelot Desk Clerk, for her thoroughness! Laverne called to inform me of an incident that happened in the Camelot lobby; she reported that there was an exchange between a janitor and a tenant and that she was completing an incident report about it. I called Molly, Janitorial Supervisor, to inform her about the incident, and she came to speak with me on-site. Laverne wrote a legible and comprehensible incident report that I was able to discuss with Molly with clarity. Laverne's prompt reporting and keen observation of activities happening at the lobby is outstanding. I would like to thank Laverne for demonstrating excellence in her work. —Rey, Camelot GM

BOOM Goes the Dunamis!
Most of us have seen the above video of a tongue-tied, frustrated young college student trying to give a sports update on campus TV. If you haven't seen it, give it a click.
If you have a conscience, you laugh at the poor guy, but feel bad for him at the same time. Yeah, that's what we call "ha-ha sad." Most of us can relate to the deer-in-the-headlights terror, compounded by the fact that just walking out is not an option and you have to try and "power through" (as Michael Bluth puts it) and finish the presentation, even while every garbled sentence that squirms out of your mouth is more malformed than the last. There's a malignant self-perpetuation in these moments.
Well, that was me yesterday. I barely slept Saturday night, felt awful Sunday morning, and couldn't stop thinking about how--if I weren't the pastor--this is a day I'd just stay home and make fun of Joel Osteen. But alas, I couldn't do it. On with the show (yes, on a day like that, you've got no choice but to approach it as a show.) On my way into the church (about an hour later than I usually arrive), I was accosted by one of our seniors, full of wrath about how long I "went over" last week (I didn't "go over," though, since nowhere is it written what time church is "supposed" to get done).
At any rate, the sermon was dismal and included at least three moments reminiscent of that poor college newscaster (his name is Brian Collins, by the way). But, like Brian, I had no choice but to push ahead and complete the job. It's funny; I've preached hundreds of sermons, but when one turns out to be a wash, I feel like I'm utterly unfit to preach. My high marks in the subject, my ordination, and the awards I've won for preaching just seem to remind me that I used to be good at it. The fact that I've botched things before and always bounced back is also no consolation.
But what cheered me up this time around was learning about where Brian Collins is now. Check it out: Bio of Brian Collins. Hey, if Brian can bounce back from being the punchline of a viral video, anyone can put anything behind them.
The worst part, however, was that I was preaching on the return of Christ and the signs that precede it. Bombing a sermon on that topic did take some of the fun out of our trip to gawk at Jack Van Impe. I mean, who am I to critique another preacher's take on the End Times when I can barely follow a train of thought in my own preaching on the topic?
Then I remembered what I've got going for me: my theology wasn't dreamed up by a British Lawyer 150 years ago.
I'll give you a full report on the Van Impe event tomorrow. I need a full day to..uh..process it.

Always your own worst critic. True, this was not one of your better sermons (compounded by my stupid interruption/distraction) but the message got through.

What message was that?

Erin is right; people always criticize themselves more than others. I get so frustrated with stupid little things that no one else even notices.
Your message was good. Even when you are off a little, you are still far better than most. Hang in there - you are doing a good job.
I can see how you might be a little frazzled by someone accosting you with a complaint right before the service. It saddens me that people have such "important" things to do on a Sunday that a listening to God's word explained for their edification ruins their day.

Paul M. Rodriguez, an investigative reporter for The Washington Times who covered the White House over three administrations, died Saturday from brain cancer. He was 61.
Known for his aggressive reporting that sparked reform on Capitol Hill, colleagues and family remembered Mr. Rodriguez's balance of hard-driven news gathering and helping hand style of editing.
"He was that rare breed: He was a pit bull of journalism and he was brilliant and kind," broadcaster Jim Bohannon said. "He was a good, hard-nosed investigative journalist but Paul was very witty and articulate."
Mr. Rodriguez was a D.C. native who was raised in Haiti, Venezuela and Texas before settling in the Washington area in 1965.
His Washington journalism career began in the 1970s, when he worked as the chief White House correspondent for the Bureau of National Affairs Inc.
Mr. Rodriguez covered the White House during the Ford and Carter administrations and for five years of Ronald Reagan's presidency. He also worked as both a reporter and bureau chief for States News Service before joining The Washington Times in February 1989.
During his time as an investigative reporter covering Capitol Hill, Mr. Rodriguez broke stories on the House bank and post office scandals, and uncovered the male prostitution ring run out of the Capitol Hill home of former Rep. Barney Frank.
Douglas D. M. Joo, president of The Washington Times from 1992-2007, called Mr. Rodriguez "a fearless investigative journalist" who "had a profound sense of courage to tell the truth in his coverage."
"Above all, Paul was deeply committed to his family and he was an outstanding leader," he added.
In 1994, Mr. Rodriguez became the managing editor of Insight magazine, a weekly publication of The Times Corp.
He was a regular fixture on news talk shows and radio programs, including NBC's "Meet the Press," NewsTalk TV, and he was a permanent substitute host on CBS Radio's "The Mary Matalin Show."
Mr. Rodriguez helped manage Insight magazine until 2004, and he maintained an Internet radio show, "Insights from Washington with Paul Rodriguez," from 2002 to 2004.
He joined public relations firm Burson-Marsteller in 2006, a change his wife, Katherine Long, said was "very different for him."
"He made the transition," she said of his leaving journalism. "He did a pretty good job there."
Mr. Rodriguez was living in Alexandria at the time of his death. He had three children.

Olivia is back with another JFC Mobile episode. Today we let our pizza junkie loose in the grocery store to find out who makes the best microwave pizza. Which pie will win the heart of our lovely pizza-princess? Check it out below!!
TWINKIES – MINION DECORATING KIT1 Oct
This is GENIUS.
At first glance, seeing that this package of Twinkies came with Minion stickers…I was kinda like …meh…
I mean I guess it's cool to dress up the Twinkie but I am not in the mood for dressing-up Twinkies.
BUT…. upon closer inspection, I notice the stickers are EDIBLE!!!
Yeah you can build a Minion and then eat the damn thing!
Now that's COOL!
GOOD HUMOR – BIRTHDAY CAKE BARS30 Sep
Oh my these look tasty. Ice cream bar in the flavor of cake batter rolled in what looks to be Fruity Pebbles? Yes please!!!
They looked just as nice in person (sorry no photo) but trust me they looked just like the photo.
The only problem is the bar itself. It does taste like cake batter….but it doesn't have the consistency of ice cream. It actually has the consistency of what I would think almost-but-not-quite-frozen-cake batter would taste like.
The consistency of this throws the whole thing off for me. it's almost chewy. Chewy ice cream? uh…..no. A shame too because I thought this one was gonna be a homerun.
ZAPP'S – NO SALT CHIPS29 Sep
Here is a bit of an odd duck in today's snack-chip climate. NO flavor. Well…there is the flavor from the potato and the cooking process but NO SALT or other seasoning of any kind.
If you are on a low-sodium diet, these are you only option really if you want some chips.
Otherwise I am not sure who these are for because without ANY seasoning…even a bit of salt??? They are SUPER-BLAND.
Nice and solid crunch…but wow…bland.
#1fan review: QT BREAKFAST PIZZA28 Sep
We got fans. Several handfuls of fans even. Our number one fan is a guy we call "Babba Ganoush". He reads and emails us a lot about food here in the DFW. We find him pretty funny. He sent in a review of his own so here it is….
Ok JFC fans, it's breakfast time! What'dya want? Sausage gravy and biscuits? Scrambled eggs with cheese and bacon? How about… All of it. QT is a staple for the JFC crew and their breakfast pizza ain't no light lunch. Roll those biscuits out, use the gravy for a sauce and top it with sausage, bacon and cheese.
This isn't for those that never liked their peas and mashed taters touching on the plate, but the QT kitchen makes them all blend really well. If it's after 6AM and before the regular pizza comes out the oven– look for these breakfast monsters.

MARKETSIDE LEMONADE24 Sep
Now you know I loves me some lemonade. So walking around the Wal-Mart deli section (which seems to be a contradiction) I noticed this "Marketside" brand of drinks (that are sorta hard to find so I don't see them selling many if they keep them hidden like this) and there is a lemonade? And it's 88 cents?? SOLD.
It's not overly sweet, or acidic, or tangy. It's kinda mild and I was burning up hot and thirsty so it was smooth and perfect.
Did I mention it's 88 cents? Might have to pick up another couple of these now that I am reflecting on it.

Say you want a Revolution?
Revolver -- the hip little cadre of indie kids shuttling from one über-cool club to another looking for its next fix of underground music -- turns 3 years old this week. So, if you count yourself among that contingent, you'll want to make the trip to Miami's Design District to catch a set from Carlos Dengler, Interpol bassist, who will spin some of his favorite records. And don't miss the live performance from Moving Units, an L.A. quartet plying a similar brand of the retro-hued rock. Moving Units specialize in that raw bounce and clatter of funky punk (or punky funk) outfits from the '80s like Wire, Gang of Four, and A Certain Ratio. With a typical art-student slant, Moving Units' frantic, nervous songs are perfect for these anxious times. Moving Units, DJ Carlos D. from Interpol, and Avenue D celebrate Revolver's three-year anniversary at 10 p.m. Friday, December 26, at Soho Lounge, 175-193 NE 36th St., Miami. Call 305-576-1988.
