ODESSA, Wash. — Touchet's determination to establish a ball-control offense bore fruit here Friday night as the Indians churned out a 60-42 victory over Odessa-Harrington in a non-league 8-man football game.
A trio of Indians — Jose Martinez, Elias Martinez and Octavio Preciado — eclipsed 100 yards rushing as Touchet's ground game produced 418 yards on 62 plays.
"The last time we had three guys rush for 100 yards or more in a game, I can't remember," said Gary Dorman, the Indians' fourth-year head coach who was a Touchet assistant coach for decades before taking the head job when Wayne Dickey retired following the 2008 season.
"We've been a fairly big-play offense," Dorman said. "To be able to rush 62 times for over 400 yards is kind of out of character for us."
Jose Martinez, the Indians' senior power back, packed the ball 17 times for 152 yards and had touchdown runs of 32, 3 and 2 yards.
Elias Martinez, the team's junior quarterback, finished with 137 yards on 12 carries, including TDs of 57 and 9 yards.
And Preciado, a senior who lost the quarterback battle to Elias Martinez last fall and has settled in as the second running option behind Jose Martinez in the Indians' backfield, had his number called 24 times in Friday night's game and garnered 102 yards. Preciado scored the first TD of the game on a two-yard run and later caught a four-yard touchdown pass from Elias Martinez, who completed 7-of-12 passes for 99 yards and two scores.
Senior end Lyle Dowsett snagged the other touchdown pass, a 15-yarder that boosted the Indians' lead to 36-22 going into halftime.
The Indians defense held O-H scoreless in the third quarter and built its lead to 52-22 early in the fourth period. The home team scored three of the game's last four TDs to narrow Touchet's final margin of victory, but the outcome was never in doubt after the intermission.
"They ran back a kickoff against mostly our reserves with about four minutes to play, and then they hit a long pass with about 30 seconds left," Dorman said of O-H's final two touchdowns.
Odessa-Harrington relied mostly on the passing of quarterback Justin Hunt and receiver Cade Weber, who hooked up nine times for 196 yards and three touchdowns. Hunt, pressed into service when first-string QB Jared King, a three-year starter, was injured a week earlier, completed 13-of-19 passes for 304 yards and four scores.
"They kind of surprised us by throwing as effectively as they did," Dorman said. "We knew their first quarterback was out, so we worked hard all week on stopping the run. Their big plays in the passing game surprised us."
The Indians improved to 2-0 and open Southeast 1B-8 League play at home next Friday against Liberty Christian, which entered the season as the favorite to win the championship.
Touchet will be bolstered by the return of senior wide receiver/defensive back Vicente Flores, who led the Indians in scoring last year but has missed the first two games with academic issues. Transfer Brock Lane, a junior linebacker, will also see his first action against the Patriots.

[382] Utility of Thyroglobluin Rinse Levels as an Adjuct to FNA of Neck Nodules in the Evaluation of Metastatic Papillary Thyroid Carcinoma
Julie A Jackson, Michael W Riben, Beverly C Handy, Nancy P Caraway. MD Anderson Cancer Center, Houston, TX
Background: Ultrasound (US) is often used to evaluate patients (pts) for metastatic or recurrent papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC) of the neck. US-guided fine needle aspiration (FNA) of abnormal nodules is often diagnostic of disease; however, in some instances lesions are small or cystic yielding insufficient number of cells for diagnosis. This study evaluates the utility of measuring thyroglobulin in the aspirate rinse (TG-r) as an adjunct to cytology in evaluating PTC pts for metastatic or recurrent disease.
Design: The pathology database was searched for pts with concurrent US-guided FNAs and TG-r levels performed from 2008-2012. There were 51 FNAs obtained from 45 pts (26 women, 19 men; age range: 20-79 years) meeting the study criteria. Of the 45 pts, 33 had a history of PTC, while the remaining had none. FNA sites included 41 non-thyroidal (25 cervical nodes, 3 supraclavicular nodes, 11 soft tissue, and 2 parotid glands) and 10 thyroidal (9 thyroid bed and 1 thyroid). Based on an ROC curve, 8ng/ml was chosen as a cutoff value for Tg-r (area under curve: .893 {95% CI, .780-1.000}). TG-r levels were correlated with the concurrent cytology diagnoses, subsequent histology, and clinical data.
Results: Of the 41 nonthyroidal FNAs, 27 had elevated TG-r levels, and the concurrent cytology diagnoses were positive for PTC in 7, suspicious for PTC in 6, atypical in 3, negative for PTC in 11. Of these, 20 showed metastatic PTC on subsequent excision or FNA, while 7 were followed clinically. Of the 10 thyroidal FNAs, 8 had elevated TG-r levels and the cytology diagnoses were suspicious for PTC in 1, atypical in 4, negative for PTC in 1 and nondiagnostic in 2. Four of these showed metastatic PTC on subsequent excision and 4 were followed clinically. There were 16 FNAs with nonelevated TG-r levels of which 4 showed PTC on excision, 4 showed no evidence of PTC, and the remainder were followed clinically. The mean TG-r level for cases with PTC on excision was 9365, versus 3 ng/ml for pts with no evidence of PTC on excision. The sensitivity and specificity for TG-r in all sites were 86% and 100%, whereas sensitivity and specificity of a positive/suspicious cytology was 63% and 100%, respectively.
Conclusions: TG-r levels are a useful adjunct to cytology in evaluating radiographically abnormal lymph nodes for metastatic PTC in selective cases, especially if cystic by US or paucicellular on FNA. Our data suggests that while a negative TG-r level does not entirely rule out PTC, markedly elevated levels in aspirates should prompt further investigation for recurrent PTC.

The postal service's deal with Amazon: A positive harbinger?
Technological innovation — email and text messaging — has made first-class mail a dwindling, money-losing business for the U.S. Postal Service. But now, logistical innovation — delivering e-commerce giant Amazon's packages on Sundays — points the way toward 21st-century postal service relevance and financial stability.
Indeed, this contract — bringing Sunday Amazon package delivery to the New York City and Los Angeles metro areas for this holiday season, elsewhere next year — begs the question of why the postal service took so long to sign such a deal. Financial terms aren't being disclosed, according to The New York Times, but the contract does capitalize on the service's strengths.
From 2008 to 2012, annual first-class mail volume declined from 92 billion pieces to about 69 million, revenue from nearly $75 billion to $65 billion. But the postal service's package business grew, to about 3.5 billion pieces and $11.6 billion in revenue — and is profitable amid nearly $16 billion in 2012 losses.
The postal service expects similar deals with other merchants. That means brighter prospects regardless of whether Congress lets it end Saturday first-class delivery, raise postage rates or reduce its unique, thrice unmet obligation to pay $5.5 billion annually toward future retirees' health care.
The Amazon contract, the most exciting step the postal service has taken in ages, invigorates an operation too long stuck in the past. Hopefully, it's the first of many innovations to come.

Hartnell College quarterback Brad Smet throws during practice Tuesday at the school. / Scott MacDonald
Hartnell College football players gather during practice Tuesday at the school. / Scott MacDonald
Hartnell schedule
No home games until October. No scrimmage. Mid-afternoon kickoff times. A bye in Week 2. Two games against the same team at the same place. A construction zone for a practice field.
Kickoff is still a week away and already it's been an interesting season for the Hartnell College football team.
The schedule has Hartnell opening the season with three road games and a bye. The first home game isn't until Oct. 3.
State budget cuts eliminated scrimmages for all teams in the state, meaning everyone gets thrown into the fire without anything even close to simulated game conditions.
When Marin dropped its football program last spring it left De Anza and Hartnell looking for a late replacement. When none could be found, the two Coast Conference schools will meet Oct. 10 in Salinas for a non-conference game, then meet again on Oct. 31 in Salinas for a conference contest.
Kickoff for all Hartnell home games but one will be at either 1 or 3 p.m., rather than the normal 7 p.m.
If that's not enough, Hartnell has spent the last few weeks having to practice on a field surrounded by heavy equipment and construction workers as progress continues on renovations to the athletic facilities.
Lost in all the commotion is the fact that this could be the Hartnell team that begins the recovery process to what was once one of the most storied programs in the state.
Matt Collins begins his third year as Hartnell coach, and is no stranger to adversity. If he has become a master at anything, it's how to put a positive spin on just about any problem.
Here are a few examples:
"The bye will give us an extra week of practice," Collins said.
"The afternoon games give us a chance to watch high school games and MPC, Gavilan and Cabrillo at night," he said.
"We're going to have to be road warriors in September," Collins said.
Perhaps you can overlook a few inconveniences knowing you may finally have a team that can compete with most any on the schedule.
There's Isiah Tate, a 6-2, 190-pound all-state receiver from Louisiana, who was MVP of the state championship game.
There's receiver Tim Smith, a 6-0, 185-pound transfer from powerhouse Santa Rosa, who Collins calls the most gifted player on the roster.
Finally, it appears Hartnell has its first home run threat since Collins arrived, in running back Ricky Rodwell, a 6-2, 210-pounder from Baltimore.
"He's a special player," Collins said. "He's a difference maker, a game-breaker."
Rodwell, Tate and Smith will be welcome additions to a team that ranked 70th in the state out of 72 schools in offense last season.
Hartnell hasn't had a running back in three years who has rushed for more than 310 yards.
The burden the past two years has been heaped on loosely protected Hartnell quarterbacks, but at least this season Collins has as many as four to choose from.
The top two, according to Collins, are Brad Smet, a 6-1, 165-pounder from Atascadero, and 6-1, 190-pound Yancy Cyr from Ottawa. Cyr threw 25 touchdown passes last year for a community college team in Minnesota.
Michael Martinez from North Salinas and sophomore Dwayne Gatlin, who started at quarterback for Hartnell in the final game of the 2008 season, are also available.
One of the biggest local recruits for Hartnell maybe since Collins' arrival is Mark Ramos of North Salinas, the T-CAL MVP.
Ramos, a fierce-hitting 5-8, 175-pounder, led the county in rushing last year with more than 1,200 yards.
He'll be employed mainly as a defensive back to shore up an area that allowed nearly 400 yards per game last season.
Ramos will be part of a nearly all-North Salinas High defensive backfield that includes Bobby Bautista, a freshman from North Salinas, and Michael Del Real, a sophomore from North Salinas.
Also in the group is Aaron Zamora, a 2007 first-team all-MTAL safety from Greenfield.
There are North High Vikings almost everywhere you look on the Hartnell roster.
Among the more prominent are first-team all-TCAL defender Charles Russell and first-team all-league offensive lineman Daniel Taue'etia.
Riley Glenn of North County, is a returning first-team all-conference offensive lineman.
The linebacking crew includes 2005 all-county pick, sophomore Anthony Mose of Alisal; Vaughan Soratos (Salinas High, 2006) and 5-10, 255-pound Quiero Small from Baltimore.
"I like the group we're working with," Collins said. "We don't have a lot of depth in certain spots [as of Friday Hartnell was still without a healthy place-kicker and punter], and that's a concern. We have the making of a team that can win games. But it all needs to unfold on game days."
Hartnell will field a roster expected to number in the mid-50s.

|Structural analysis of mycolic acids from phenol-degrading strain of Rhodococcus erythropolis by liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry.
MedLine Citation:
|PMID: 22610598 Owner: NLM Status: Publisher
|We used reversed phase liquid chromatography-electrospray ionization tandem mass spectrometry for direct analysis of mycolic acids (MAs) from four different cultivations of Rhodococcus erythropolis. This technique enabled us to identify and quantify the specific molecular species of MAs directly from lipid extracts of the bacterium, including the determination of their basic characteristics such as retention time and mass spectra. We identified a total of 60 molecular species of MAs by means of LC/MS. In collision-induced dissociation tandem mass spectrometry, the [M-H](-) ions eliminated two residues, i.e., meroaldehyde and carboxylate anions containing α-alkyl chains. The structural information from these fragment ions affords structural assignment of the mycolic acids, including the lengths and number of double bond(s). Two strains, i.e., R. erythropolis CCM 2595 and genetically modified strain CCM 2595 pSRK 21 phe were cultivated on two different substrates (phenol and phenol with addition of humic acids as a sole carbon source). The addition of humic acids showed that there is a marked increase of unsaturated mycolic acids, mostly in the range of 20-100 %. This effect is more pronounced in the R. erythropolis CCM 2595 strain.

Crispy Fish Cakes
Something that can't be categorized as dessert! Huzzah! (Is it just me who feels as if everything she has eaten in the recent past started out as batter?)
But wait, it is technically cake again.
I taught a class in Red Deer last night, so the boys came up with dinner on their own. (I didn't ask.) Tonight, fish cakes. My Mom had a chunk of leftover sea bass (yes I know, but it was already cooked, so it would have been worse not to eat it) from a dinner party, and my favourite use of scraps of leftover fish is fish cakes. (Canned salmon works very well too. I haven't tried sardines yet, but if you're a fan – why not?) Really all you do is mix the flaked fish with about an equal amount of mashed potatoes (yes you have to mash the potatoes, but come on, it's easy. You don't have to worry about getting them all smooth, because you're stirring fish and stuff into them anyway) and all manner of accessorizing ingredients if you're so inclined – usually I'll add some finely chopped green onion, or parsley, chives, red pepper, a bit of mustard… but I had none, and once again this bare cupboard has opened my eyes to something I may not have otherwise tried.
Plain Old Fish Cakes. Nothing but fish, potato, salt and pepper. Once in awhile I am reminded of the pleasure of plain, unadorned food. It doesn't always need to be jazzed up, spiced and garnished, Thai-inspired or spicy. The simplest of fish cakes allowed us to taste the actual fish and potato (and even oil), rather than serve merely as a vehicle for my culinary whims. Shape the mixture into patties and douse them in a shallow dish of flour, then of beaten egg, then of bread crumbs or Panko (extra-crispy Japanese breadcrumbs) and cook them up in a skillet with a skiff of canola or olive oil. These were so tasty. W even devoured them, which I wasn't expecting at all. Served with peas, of course.
(Tomorrow I am so ditching this whole no-shop thing and sending Mike for one of those tubs of mixed greens. Come to mama…)

yum. we were just thinking of ways to get more fish into our diet, thanks! haha
Charmian Christie on 19 Mar 2009 at 6:00 am #
Love the idea of these simple cakes with a Thai dipping sauce. I agree, not too much potato and crispy crumbs. Now if I could only get my husband to eat fish…
Erica B. on 19 Mar 2009 at 6:02 am #
I was just reading about chilean sea bass in Fish Without A Doubt. I'm also exploring ways to get more fish in our diet, and trying to do it with a conscience: http://www.montereybayaquarium.org/cr/SeafoodWatch/web/sfw_regional.aspx
Last night I had Lobster Mac & Cheese from North Sea Fish Market(impluse buy). It was deeeelicious (and shared as a side dish to steamed veggies and grilled chicken).
Barb on 19 Mar 2009 at 6:05 am #
I finally bought a package of Panko crumbs. I have been wanting to try them for a long time. I think filleted fish would be better than canned but I happen to have canned salmon there waiting. Sounds good.
Elaine on 19 Mar 2009 at 6:16 am #
excellent suggestion! As an East Coast transplant living in the Midwest, I always mourn the lack of really fresh fish. Any ideas to jazz up the canned or frozen stuff are eagerly welcomed.
Theresa on 19 Mar 2009 at 8:15 am #
I just threw out the left over mashed potatoes! DOH!
Cheryl on 19 Mar 2009 at 9:49 am #
So, so yummy…. Might also be a good use for the leftover spaghetti squash I have in the freezer.
Jan on 19 Mar 2009 at 2:23 pm #
This looks yummy and so simple. I've got to try it out. And I just happen to have an unopened package of panko in my own over-stocked cupboards!
Jenn on 19 Mar 2009 at 3:12 pm #
Where does everyone find panko. I even looked at T&T and they had no idea. Thanks!
LisaMer on 19 Mar 2009 at 6:41 pm #
The CO-OP in my neighbourhood has Panko (in the aisle with all the "foreign" food). 😉
Vivian on 19 Mar 2009 at 8:29 pm #
I've found that tilapia is a wonderful, delicate and mild fish that works very well with panko. It is farmed but apparently without ecological damage. Hawaiian royalty used to keep ponds to rear tilapia. Good enough for kings and queens, good enough for me!
twomittens on 20 Mar 2009 at 6:58 am #
Oh yum!
I'm often tempted to buy fish sticks for the kids, but they're just so greasy gross.
These would be so much better. Love the crispy.

Cosmoprof North America, held July 13-15 at the Mandalay Bay Convention Center in Las Vegas, saw the largest number of exhibitors—992 companies—ever. The annual trade show was created in 2002.
Also, this year the total number of international exhibiting companies and countries represented at Cosmoprof North America was higher than ever. There were 314 international exhibitors representing a total of 38 countries—a 7% increase.
Cosmoprof Worldwide Bologna, which took place at the Bologna Fairgrounds in Bologna, Italy, March 8-11 closed its 2013 show with record-breaking figures: 193,842 visitors for a 14% increase with 48,823 visitors from outside of Italy for a 22% increase.
The number of exhibitors this year—2,390—was also up from 2,320 in 2012.
That figure included about 1,500 (63%) from outside of Italy as well as prominent new country pavilions from India and Colombia.
Beauty Store Business had a number of advertisers at Cosmoprof Asia 2012, which took place Nov. 14-16 at the Hong Kong Convention and Exhibition Centre in Hong Kong. I also know of numerous beauty-industry executives who were there. And from all accounts on our international beauty beat, it was a great show.

Asana is a project management app designed to help individuals and teams track the progress and success of their assignments and projects.
Asana for Android enables individuals and teams to follow work from start to finish and makes it very easy to do so while not skimping on powerful reporting features. Much like apps such as Wrike, ProWorkflow, and LiquidPlanner, Asana includes a wide range of tools to create tasks, to-dos, reminders and requests from anywhere in the app.
As a student I'm always taking notes on the go thanks to a small notepad and pen that I keep with me almost all the time. The problem is that you can always forget your notepad or your pen could run out of ink. However, one thing that you never forget is your smartphone.
A great number of applications on the Play Store can act as your notepad, but there's one that caught my eye. Catch Notes is a great way to create, manage and share notes. Not only that, but Catch is designed for collaborative note talking – perfect for any small project you might be cooking up with your friends and colleagues.
In a fast-paced world, it is essential to have a top-notch organization tool for every project you're involved in. There is no better tool that meets this requirement for groups and individuals alike than Trello. Maybe you're with a group of people and need a way to completely organize all the assignments required to complete a project, or maybe you're an individual with ideas constantly swarming around their head like me. No matter who you are or who you work with, Trello should be an essential part of your organization strategy.
The number of online file storage solutions is on a meteoric rise. That's a good thing in two ways: first, the buzz they generate is creating a lot of awareness about the importance of backing up files before the disaster strikes; second, they make secure and redundant storage space available at throwaway prices.
Dropbox is the crowd favorite, but is pricey if you try to add more storage. Equally good competing apps are available in the market at affordable prices and Box is a pioneering dark horse. Box lets you store all of your content online, so you can access, manage and share it from anywhere. Let's see how best it can be put to use while on the go!

Former two-time Free Press Mr. Basketball Matt Glass of Underhill is back in Vermont and could play a key role for the UVM mens basketball team after spending his first two college seasons at Massachusetts. / JOSHUA LAMBERT, for the Free Press
College sports blog
For more coverage on University of Vermont and college sports, check out the Free Press' On Campus blog.
The last time Matt Glass played a game at Patrick Gymnasium, he cut down the nets after propelling Mount Mansfield Union High School to a state championship in 2005.
The next time he plays there, he will be an important member of the University of Vermont mens basketball team.
Its been a long road back home, said Glass, arguably the Catamount player most anxious for the seasons launch next month.
Transferring to UVM after playing two years at the University of Massachusetts, Glass career has come full circle. The 6-foot-8 junior is eligible to play games for the Catamounts after sitting out last season because of NCAA transfer rules.
In addition to guiding Mount Mansfield to Vermont Division I titles in 2004 and 2005, Glass was twice named the Burlington Free Press Mr. Basketball, a distinction given to the states top prep player.
The smooth-shooting, versatile forward will contribute to the rebuilding of a UVM program that lost four starters from last seasons America East championship team.
We are excited to get him out there, UVM coach Mike Lonergan said. He will have to play a big role for us. Not just his shooting, which is probably his biggest strength, but we are also trying to encourage him to rebound, play defense and do a lot of other things.
Hell have a good opportunity here; hopefully hell make the most of it.
A 1,000-point scorer and a nightly double-double threat at Mount Mansfield, Glass almost single handedly carried the Cougars in the 2005 title game, racking up 27 points and 14 rebounds in a 43-37 victory over Spaulding.
Lonergan said he was impressed with Glass high school career, but at the time he had no room for Glass in a frontcourt crowded by Marqus Blakely, Joe Trapani and Colin McIntosh.
After developing during a post-graduate year at Northfield Mount Hermon prep school, Glass averaged less than 10 minutes and three points a game in two seasons at UMass, an Atlantic 10 Conference member.
This is a good situation for me as far as getting more playing time, maybe a little bigger role, Glass said about his transfer to UVM. Im really excited about it.
Hes always been athletic and could hit the jumper, Lonergan said, but I think hes a much better basketball player now than he was four years ago.
Hes has a great personality, hes definitely one of the leaders on the team, and hes got a terrific attitude, Lonergan added. Hes fun to be around. He works hard but he likes to have fun. I like coaching guys like that.
Lonergan said Glass specific duties will depend on the lineup. In the absence of center Ben Crenca, who likely will be sidelined until late December with a knee injury, Glass might be asked to play in the paint alongside Evan Fjeld. When Crenca returns, or should senior center Garrett Kissel emerge, Glass could find himself playing more at small forward.
He can really shoot the ball and hell help clear things out on the inside for me, Fjeld said.
Im going to be playing a little bit on the wing, a little bit under the basket, Glass said. Ill try to stretch the defense out if theyve got a bigger guy on me. Hopefully I can cause some matchup problems.
With Glass, junior forward Pat Bergmann (Rice Memorial) and freshman walk-on Clancy Rugg (Burlington), the Catamounts have three Vermonters on the active roster for the first time since the 2004-05 season.
That first game playing back in Patrick Gym in front of friends and family will be a special night for me, Glass said.

Driving Compliance, Risk and Bottom Line Benefits with Supplier Information Management
Buy-side leaders looking to stabilize supply availability and costs are aggressively paying heed to the striking indications that clean, consistent and up-to-date information on their suppliers contributes heavily in bottom-line savings, end-user productivity, working capital management, regulatory compliance and operational risk management. As customers and suppliers struggle with their own pricing and credit challenges, companies seeking to remove financial and business inefficiencies across their supply chain and ensure the continued flow of goods, are presented with fewer options for credibly assessing supplier financial viability and sustainability.
Join us in this exclusive webcast to understand how an effective Supplier Information Management (SIM) system allows an enterprise to aggregate, collect and maintain information from all distributed systems within the organization and enable a consolidated view of supplier data, process status and relationships.

Philemon 1-21
Luke 14:25-33

Psalm 1
Philemon 1-21
Luke 14:25-33
Grant us, O Lord, to trust in you with all our hearts; for, as you always resist the proud who confide in their own strength, so you never forsake those who make their boast of your mercy; through Jesus Christ our Lord, who lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit, one God, now and for ever. Amen.
The word that came to Jeremiah from the LORD: "Come, go down to the potter's house, and there I will let you hear my words." So I went down to the potter's house, and there he was working at his wheel. The vessel he was making of clay was spoiled in the potter's hand, and he reworked it into another vessel, as seemed good to him.
Then the word of the LORD came to me: Can I not do with you, O house of Israel, just as this potter has done? says the LORD. Just like the clay in the potter's hand, so are you in my hand, O house of Israel. At one moment I may declare concerning a nation or a kingdom, that I will pluck up and break down and destroy it, but if that nation, concerning which I have spoken, turns from its evil, I will change my mind about the disaster that I intended to bring on it. And at another moment I may declare concerning a nation or a kingdom that I will build and plant it, but if it does evil in my sight, not listening to my voice, then I will change my mind about the good that I had intended to do to it. Now, therefore, say to the people of Judah and the inhabitants of Jerusalem: Thus says the LORD: Look, I am a potter shaping evil against you and devising a plan against you. Turn now, all of you from your evil way, and amend your ways and your doings.
Moses said to all Israel the words which the Lord commanded him, "See, I have set before you today life and prosperity, death and adversity. If you obey the commandments of the LORD your God that I am commanding you today, by loving the LORD your God, walking in his ways, and observing his commandments, decrees, and ordinances, then you shall live and become numerous, and the LORD your God will bless you in the land that you are entering to possess. But if your heart turns away and you do not hear, but are led astray to bow down to other gods and serve them, I declare to you today that you shall perish; you shall not live long in the land that you are crossing the Jordan to enter and possess. I call heaven and earth to witness against you today that I have set before you life and death, blessings and curses. Choose life so that you and your descendants may live, loving the LORD your God, obeying him, and holding fast to him; for that means life to you and length of days, so that you may live in the land that the LORD swore to give to your ancestors, to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob."
Paul, a prisoner of Christ Jesus, and Timothy our brother,
To Philemon our dear friend and co-worker, to Apphia our sister, to Archippus our fellow soldier, and to the church in your house:
Grace to you and peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.
When I remember you in my prayers, I always thank my God because I hear of your love for all the saints and your faith toward the Lord Jesus. I pray that the sharing of your faith may become effective when you perceive all the good that we may do for Christ. I have indeed received much joy and encouragement from your love, because the hearts of the saints have been refreshed through you, my brother.
For this reason, though I am bold enough in Christ to command you to do your duty, yet I would rather appeal to you on the basis of love-- and I, Paul, do this as an old man, and now also as a prisoner of Christ Jesus. I am appealing to you for my child, Onesimus, whose father I have become during my imprisonment. Formerly he was useless to you, but now he is indeed useful both to you and to me. I am sending him, that is, my own heart, back to you. I wanted to keep him with me, so that he might be of service to me in your place during my imprisonment for the gospel; but I preferred to do nothing without your consent, in order that your good deed might be voluntary and not something forced. Perhaps this is the reason he was separated from you for a while, so that you might have him back forever, no longer as a slave but more than a slave, a beloved brother-- especially to me but how much more to you, both in the flesh and in the Lord.
So if you consider me your partner, welcome him as you would welcome me. If he has wronged you in any way, or owes you anything, charge that to my account. I, Paul, am writing this with my own hand: I will repay it. I say nothing about your owing me even your own self. Yes, brother, let me have this benefit from you in the Lord! Refresh my heart in Christ. Confident of your obedience, I am writing to you, knowing that you will do even more than I say.
Now large crowds were traveling with Jesus; and he
turned and said to them, "Whoever comes to me and does not hate father and
mother, wife and children, brothers and sisters, yes, and even life
itself, cannot be my disciple. Whoever does not carry the cross and follow
me cannot be my disciple. For which of you, intending to build a tower,
does not first sit down and estimate the cost, to see whether he has
enough to complete it? Otherwise, when he has laid a foundation and is not
able to finish, all who see it will begin to ridicule him, saying, `This
fellow began to build and was not able to finish.' Or what king, going out
to wage war against another king, will not sit down first and consider
whether he is able with ten thousand to oppose the one who comes against
him with twenty thousand? If he cannot, then, while the other is still far
away, he sends a delegation and asks for the terms of peace. So therefore,
none of you can become my disciple if you do not give up all your

Holiday Safety
Each year fires during the holiday season injure 2,600 individuals and cause over $930 million in damage! Avoid becoming a statistic by using these few simple tips:
- If using a fresh Christmas tree, make sure that the needles are green and hard to pull back from the branches. Needles should not break or fall off if the tree is freshly cut. Keep your tree away from all heat sources, and keep the stand filled with water. Don't leave it up for more than two weeks, to avoid having the tree become dry. To see a Christmas tree go up in flames in a typical home setting, visit the website.
- It takes only a few seconds for the room to become engulfed in flame and thick smoke.
- If you are using an artificial tree, make sure it is flame retardant.
- Maintain your holiday lights - make sure that there are no frayed wires, and that lights used outdoors are rated outdoor use. Don't overload electrical outlets, or link more than three light strands unless the directions indicate it is safe.
- Never burn holiday wrapping paper in a fireplace - it can throw off sparks and produce a chemical build up in the home that could cause an explosion.
- Candles are a significant source of home fires, especially during holidays. Make sure they are in stable holders and place them where they can't be easily knocked over. NEVER leave the home with candles burning!
Don't forget to check your smoke alarm, and practice your home escape plan.

Tammy Van De Loo and her daughter, Kylie, of Menasha, walk through the caterpillar display at the WPS Garden of Lights last year. The Green Bay Botanical Garden again offers up the display this year, along with wagon rides and snacks.
- Filed Under
"The best of all gifts around any Christmas tree: the presence of a happy family all wrapped up in each other," author Burton Hillis once said.
But let's face it - sometimes you just have to get out of the house with the family during the holidays to create some fun.
As children celebrate their holiday break from school, a few Post-Crescent staff members offered to share some of their favorite things to do with family. We hope it inspires you to venture out with your loved ones to enjoy some of these activities this holiday season.
Garden of Lights
The Christmas season isn't complete without a walk through the Green Bay Botanical Garden and its Garden of Lights - all 250,000 of them.
While you can take the wagon ride instead, we prefer to stroll through the display, taking our time as we ooh and aah through our favorite caterpillar tunnel, marvel at the icicle forest and dream of summer with the brightly lit flowers, butterflies and bugs. All your troubles will be miles away when you witness the rainbow after the storm.
But watch out for the mistletoe!
If you decide to head out for the display, stop at Festival Foods beforehand to get your tickets to avoid long lines at the botanical garden. Tickets are $7 for adults, or $11 with wagon ride; $4 for children ages 5 to 12, or $8 with wagon ride; free for children 4 and younger.
If you have time for a snack, be sure to stop by for hot chocolate and a cookie at the cafe inside.
The Garden of Lights runs from 5 to 8 p.m. Dec. 20 and Dec. 23, and Dec. 26 to 29; and from 5 to 9 p.m. Dec. 21 and Dec. 22. Visit www.gbbg.org.

Noodles Around the World
Welcome the new year early by attending Noodles Around the World at the Building for Kids Children's Museum in downtown Appleton.
The New Year's Eve event runs from noon to 5 p.m. Dec. 31 at the museum, 100 W. College Ave.
No matter when you arrive, you'll have the chance to count down to the new year with a parade each hour that ends in a ball drop and bubble-wrap "fireworks." Bubble wrap, a fun favorite of ours, goes on the floor so everyone can take part in creating the popping noise with their feet.
Noodles & Company is offering samples of its pasta dishes until 3:30 p.m. from cultures around the world. Wisconsin Mac & Cheese will be on hand all afternoon.
Art projects - Mexican pinatas, Japanese prints and African masks, among others - offer visitors a view of other places.
We appreciate the museum's hands-on approach to educating children that people around the world are celebrating the new year but at different times and in different ways.
At the high-energy party, we spend family time together and our 5-year-old daughter gets her wiggles out before my husband and I enjoy New Year's Eve as a date night.
Activities are included with museum admission, which is $7.25 for visitors and free for members and for children 12 months old and younger. Senior citizens age 65 and older pay $6.
To learn more, call 920-734-3226 or visit www.buildingforkids.org.

After all the hustle and bustle of holiday preparations, doing something simple and free of charge with your family can be a fun and easy way to enjoy some quality time together over Christmas break.
At the Rausch house, sledding at one of the Fox Cities' many hills is a popular choice. My 7-year-old son is a bit less of a risk-taker than my 10-year-old daughter. He especially enjoys the hill at Appleton's Memorial Park, which is big but not too steep. My daughter, however, prefers Grignon Park in Kaukauna, locally known as Mount Misery. I think the name sort of says it all.
If your children are young, keep in mind the height of the hill you'll be walking up after each sled ride. Bundle up, bring extra mittens or gloves, and make sure to have some hot chocolate on hand when you get home.
The Memorial Park sled hill is on E. Witzke Boulevard in Appleton, and Mount Misery is along Augustine Street in Kaukauna. Other favorite hills include Pierce Park (Spencer Street, Appleton) and Arbutus Park (W. Packard Street, Appleton).

Harlem Globetrotters
These are days when we could use a good laugh. To be able to laugh as a family, now that's a bonus.
The Harlem Globetrotters, those clowns of the hardcourt, have made post-Christmas appearances at the Resch Center in Ashwaubenon numerous times in recent years. They're back again this year, tipping off their brand of hoops humor at 7 p.m. Wednesday.
My family took in the Globetrotters game a year ago. You need not be a basketball fan to enjoy the show. It's kid-friendly humor that resonates whether your kids are in elementary school, high school or beyond. The names aren't quite as recognizable as the days of Meadowlark Lemon and Curly Neal, but these Globetrotters dish out enough trick shots, fan interaction and wardrobe malfunctions (of the clean variety) to keep you laughing all night. And there's no stress about who is going to win the game.
Tickets range from $19 to $39 (VIP and courtside tickets are higher). Information can found at ticketstaronline.com.
Bonus: A pre-game Magic Pass offering (5:30 p.m.) will get you on the court with the Globetrotters. That will set you back another $20 per ticket.

Winter wonderland walk
Enjoy the serenity and beauty of the woods by visiting High Cliff State Park, N7630 State Park Road, Sherwood. My husband and I love bundling up on Sunday afternoons and taking our dog for a walk on the Forest Management trail. It's a great way to spend time as a family and stay in shape during the long Wisconsin winter. We look forward to spotting deer in the park, and our dog has a blast chasing the squirrels he tracks during our walk.
If walking is not your thing, you can go for a snowshoe hike. Snowshoeing is permitted anywhere in the park, except on ski trails when snow covered. Snowshoe rentals are available on a first-come, first-served basis when the park office is open.
The Red Bird trail is designated for skiing when snow covered and a three-mile snowmobile trail through the park connects Lake Winnebago with the Calumet County snowmobile trail system.
High Cliff State Park is open year-round from 6 a.m. to 11 p.m. Park office hours vary by season. A vehicle admission sticker is required. Buy your sticker when you get to the park or in advance. You can buy an annual sticker, for admission to all state parks and forests for the calendar year, for $25, or a daily sticker, valid only on the date of purchase, for $7. For more information, go to http://1.usa.gov/R7xrgU.

Mitchell Park Conservatory
Embrace the holiday spirit, or escape from it, with a visit to Milwaukee's Mitchell Park Conservatory (the Domes). Each year, we make it a tradition to travel to the Domes during winter for a break from the snow and cold. No hat, gloves or scarves required as you enjoy wandering the many trails leading through the three landmark domes.
Step into a lush, tropical jungle with hundreds of blooming orchids, bromeliads and more in the Tropical Dome, featuring trees reaching to 85 feet high. Wander through giant cacti and towering palms in the deserts of the Arid Dome.
This year's Holiday Show, running through Jan.6, features a sea of colorful poinsettias, showcasing families enjoying winter's most enjoyable activities: sleighing, sledding and skating. A giant decorated tree is the centerpiece of the show.
For more information, visit http://bit.ly/dFrGM9. Admission is $6.50 for adults or $5 for children ages 6 to 17. Winter hours are from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. Monday through Wednesday and Friday; from 9 a.m. to 9:30 p.m. Thursdays (hours extended for Music Under Glass concerts); and from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. Saturday and Sunday.

After a warrant went out for Russell Brand's arrest earlier Thursday over a photographer's claim that he grabbed a cellphone and threw it through a window, Brand turned himself in to a New Orleans police department. He currently remains in custody.

According to a TMZ report, Brand snatched a paparazzo's cellphone from his car when the man began to film him, and threw the phone through the window of a nearby building on Monday night.

Brand has yet to make an official statement regarding the incident but made reference to it in a comedic tone on Twitter, writing, "Since Steve Jobs died I cannot bear to see anyone use an iphone irreverently, what I did was a tribute to his memory."

|Histomorphometric analysis of the omasum of sheep during development.
MedLine Citation:
|PMID: 8214887 Owner: NLM Status: MEDLINE
|Histomorphometric and scanning electron microscopic analyses were performed on 74 embryos and fetuses and 20 sheep (early postnatal to adult age). Histologic differentiation of the omasum took place at 33 days of fetal life, with the appearance of first-order laminae. Second-, third-, and fourth-order laminae appeared at 39, 50, and 59 days, respectively. Neutral mucopolysaccharides first appeared in epithelial cells at 46 days of fetal life, decreasing quantitatively until birth, before subsequently stabilizing in postnatal life. Acid mucopolysaccharides, mucins, and mucoid compounds were not detected. Growth curves and formulas were constructed for each tissue layer. Initial tests involved multiplicative (y = axb), exponential (y = EXP [a + bx]), linear (y = a + bx), and polynomial models (y = a + bx + cx2 + dx3).

Madge moons crowd for moneyComment on this story
London - Madonna raised $60,000 for charity by showing her bottom to a crowd in New York.
The 'Girls Gone Wild' singer bared her butt and encouraged those watching her to donate to victims of the recent Hurricane Sandy - which recently hit the Caribbean and US, causing billions of dollars of damage and leaving many homeless - by throwing their cash onstage.
She told the crowd at the city's Madison Square Garden venue: "I'm showing [my] naked a** for Hurricane Sandy victims."
A concert attendee added to the New York Post newspaper: "One guy threw a $20 bill, and Madonna threw it back and said she wanted hundreds.
"She yelled, 'Is that all my a** is worth?'"
Some front row VIPs also got to see even more of the 54-year-old singer than they had bargained for.
One said: "I was sitting in the first row and when Madonna did a split in a thong it was a Sharon Stone 'Basic Instinct' moment!"
Another added: "Yep, I saw the fern."
The film 'Basic Instinct' famously features a scene in which Sharon Stone uncrosses her legs while being interrogated by police, revealing she is not wearing any knickers.
Fans who had bought $2,500 'Ultimate VIP Package' tickets for Madonna's MDNA Tour concert also had to sign waivers with some particular clauses, including agreeing not to "wander off in any way" during a pre-party or "seek out Madonna or her crew." They also had to agree "not to engage in any illegal or inappropriate activities" or "acts that are considered disturbing."
Fans at the show on Tuesday (13.11.12) were also treated to Madonna performing a mash up of her hit 'Give It To Me' and South Korean pop sensation PSY's cult smash 'Gangnam Style', with the star joining her on stage. - Bang Showbiz

Within the last few years regional leaders have worked to streamline and integrate rival transit authorities, establish commuter rail lines and propose light rail lines. But putting all of these pieces of the transit puzzle together is arguably the most important aspect of improving overall regional transit, which is exactly what Metro Detroit's Regional Transportation Coordinating Council (what's left of DARTA) is trying to do.
The council, led by transit czar John Hertel, will host regional transit planning open houses in the tri-county area in early April. Hertel's group is developing a regional transit plan for Metro Detroit as a basis for applying for federal funds (the mother's milk of mass transit initiatives) and is hosting the meetings to get public input on developing this vision.
The first meeting will be held on April 8 in downtown Detroit at the SEMCOG Conference Room in the Buhl Building, 535 Griswold. That will be followed by meetings in Oakland County (April 9) and Macomb County (April 10).
The Oakland County meeting will be held in the Oakland County Board of Commissioners Auditorium, 1200 North Telegraph Road, in Pontiac. The Macomb County meeting will be at 15 Main in Mt. Clemens.
For information, contact the Regional Transportation Coordinating Council at firstname.lastname@example.com or at (313) 393-3333.

The newly hired general manager of the Suburban Mobility Authority for Regional
Transportation is looking at a couple of ways to use new technology to make
traveling on the authority's buses easier and faster.
Among the innovations that could be in
place before the end of the year is using a MapQuest-like
feature on the authority's web site to plan out trips. The tool would not only
tell patrons which buses to take but when they stop at their destinations or
transfer to other buses.
Another possibility is putting the buses
routes into real time. That would allow patrons with smart phones or laptops to
check when their bus is on
time or not.
The idea behind the two innovations is to
eliminate waiting time for passengers and streamline their bus-riding
experience. Jones also said at a recent meeting for Transportation Riders
United that he and his staff are looking for ways to be more customer-service
oriented by getting rid of small inconveniences and adding new services.

Regardless, officials close to the project expect infrastructure capacity and fare-box studies to wrap up by April, giving the project a big boost toward becoming a reality.
"That's key because we're trying to nail down the cost of the project," Saundra Nelson, director of special projects for Wayne County, said in a speech to Transportation Riders United earlier this week.
Nelson pointed out that finishing these studies will get the project closer to concluding the second stage of a largely three-step assessment. The first two (what it is and what it takes) will be done, leaving the third (what it costs) left to be determined. Nelson was quite optimistic that the proposal will become a reality sooner rather than later.
The Southeast Michigan Council of Governments, which is spearheading the project, is negotiating logistics and improvements with the railroads that control the tracks and Amtrak for providing the trains. Organizers behind the proposal are looking at picking stops, arranging a shuttle service between the Metro Airport stop at Merriman Road and the airport's terminals and making sure delays are kept to a bare minimum.
Carmine Palombo, director of transportation for SEMCOG, gave a prognosis last year of establishing service by late 2009 or early 2010 while SEMCOG and the railroads sort out logistical issues.
The commuter rail line would utilize existing tracks with stops at Metro Airport, Detroit, Ann Arbor, Ypsilanti and Dearborn. It�s possible it could also be expanded to connect Royal Oak, Ferndale, Troy/Birmingham and Pontiac.

State officials are looking for regular Joe's (or Josephine's) to give their opinion on where state transportation should go and how they want it to get there. The solicitation is part of the annual comment period for the Michigan Department of Transportation's Five Year Plan.
The plan covers how Michigan intends to spends its resources on transportation issues, such as road construction and mass transit, in the next five years. In the past this has mainly focused on road construction, but this year the emergence of the Detroit to Ann Arbor commuter rail project, Ann Arbor to Howell commuter rail project, Detroit Transit Options for Growth Study (aka Woodward mass transit line) and a host of local greenway initiatives are giving locals a variety of subjects to pontificate on.
You can make your opinion known where it counts here. The deadline for public comments is Dec. 21.

It's not always a bad thing when the feds are paying attention to you. Such is the case when the Federal Highway Administration recognized the Michigan Department of Transportation with an award for "exceptional environmental stewardship" of its 100-mile network of trails and greenways in southeast Michigan.
"This award reflects our commitment to making non-motorized trails available as a transportation mode," says Kirk T. Steudle, director of MDOT. "Trails are a part of the transportation mix that is essential to protecting the health and well being of Michigan residents, and greenways contribute to enhancing quality of life."
The award largely recognizes the efforts of the Southeastern Michigan GreenWays Initiative. The public and private partnership has helped organize efforts to finance and develop a 100-mile network of greenways across Metro Detroit since 2001. The regional effort involves more than 75 municipalities in Warren, Oakland, Macomb, Monroe Washtenaw, St. Clair and Livingston counties.
Greenways provide recreation, transportation, conservation, tourism and economic benefits by creating non-motorized trails in developed areas that nurture and preserve green space. The GreenWays Initiative has worked to expand and enhance local greenways, helping leverage more than $82 million in investments in greenways from public and private sources. Although great progress has been made in recent years, Metro Detroit's greenways system is still behind leaders like Indianapolis, leaving plenty of work for southeast Michigan's leaders.
Taking a page from the "Only we can solve our problems" playbook, Southfield-based Farbman Group is starting the Michigan Now! program to attract, retain and grow new businesses in Metro Detroit.
The program is offering office and commercial space at greatly reduced rates, or even free in some cases, to businesses and entrepreneurs in growth industries both in and out of state.
"Now is the time for businesses to play a role in moving our state forward. We cannot sit by idly and place the burden solely on the shoulders of government," David Farbman, co-president of Farbman Group, says in a statement. "The old way of doing business is no longer working for Michigan and business owners have the power to make a positive impact. The state is its own greatest resource. We have creative and well educated individuals, tremendous real estate spaces and a wealth of natural resources that simply need to be connected."
The idea is that by defraying the rental costs will free up capital in start-ups, allowing them to focus their resources on improving their business. It also hopes that the reduced rates will be big enough incentives to attract out-of-state businesses to Michigan. Farbman Group hopes growing businesses like this at the grassroots level will help boost the state�s sagging economy in the short and long term.
The program will also offer to match up these companies with local banks, consulting firms and attorneys to help them grow their business. So far about a dozen such organizations have signed up to take part in the program.
Applications for the program are due by July 31. More information can be found online at michigannow.net or by calling 866-NewMich (642-4639).

A study by the Midwest Regional Rail Initiative states upgrading passenger rail service across the Midwest could provide up to $719 million in investment, $3.5 billion in user benefits to Michigan, 6,970 new jobs, more transportation choices and a significant reduction in pollution.
Nine states from across the Midwest, including Michigan, are part of the Midwest Regional Rail Initiative, which is pushing for the creation of a 3,000-mile Midwest Regional Rail System, similar to systems on the east coast. Trains running out of a hub in Chicago would travel to nine Midwest states at speeds up to 110 mph, making travel times competitive with driving.
The proposed system would have three routes in Michigan that would connect Chicago to Metro Detroit, Port Huron and Grand Rapids. The study estimates the system would generate $23.1 in user benefits, such as time savings, and $4.9 billion in investment in the Midwest during the project's first 40 years. Of that, Metro Detroit could see as much as $315 million in user benefits.
Passenger rail service, provided by Amtrak, ridership in Michigan has increased steadily wince 2002 from 447,000 passengers to 673,000 passengers in 2006. The Southeast Michigan Council of Governments is also moving forward with plans to create a commuter rail line connecting Detroit, Dearborn, Metro Airport, Ypsilanti and Ann Arbor by the end of this year.

Large sculptures of tigers will begin appearing across Metro Detroit en masse after opening day.
The fiberglass Tigers are a fundraiser and public-art project for the Children�s Charities Coalition, which is made up of four Oakland County-based charities. At least 80 tigers will appear throughout Metro Detroit, although most of them will be in Birmingham and Bloomfield. The tigers are approximately 4 feet tall and 100 pounds and will be displayed in front of businesses between April and June.
�Our inspiration was the Detroit Tigers, but we have all sorts of tigers,� said Gigi Nichols, public relations director for The Community House, which is part of the Children�s Charities Coalition. �They�re not necessarily tigers that have something to do with baseball, although some of them do.�
Money raised from the sculptures will go toward the four charities that make up the Children�s Charities Coalition: Child Abuse and Neglect Council of Oakland County, The Community House, Orchards Children�s Services and Variety The Children�s Charity.
For information, call (248) 594-6403.
