I'm tired of the political ads. I'm tired of the mud slinging, bad mouthing and general disrespect of the candidates towards one another and it makes me question what message it sends our children when they see adults saying malicious things to one another.
Dear MSB: Every election year I engage my children in the process by talking to them about what the issues are, who the candidates are and what a citizen needs to consider when voting for them. This year however, it seems like the negative ads have completely overwhelmed any of the positive messages the candidates are trying to convey and it is difficult to tell my children that saying mean things about another person is wrong when that is all we are seeing.
Last week, I watched an argument between two people in the early voting line and was appalled at what I saw. Have we become a society that is completely disrespectful and cannot even tolerate hearing someone else's opinion or viewpoint? How are we to expect our younger generation to have respect when all of their role models are fighting and arguing? - Sincerely, Politically Perplexed
Dear Politically Perplexed: The disrespectful scene you are speaking of seems to happen on a daily basis in our world. Our children see it on social networking sites and television talk shows and are constantly inundated with negative messages.
There is a sense of decorum and politeness that seems to get thrown out the window during campaign season and it is our job as adults to teach children that candidates acting poorly aren't the norm but an unfortunate side effect of politics. Teaching children that respect is something we should all have for one another, regardless of age, gender, race or political affiliation and then showing them that in our interactions with others is the best way to counteract the unfortunate things children are hearing and seeing.
Thankfully we have the holidays to look forward to when people forget all the negativity that elections can bring and can focus on everything good and gracious in our lives and regain the civility we have lost.

I read a guest opinion from the conservative Caesar Rodney Institute last month that suggested that our unions are hurting our economy and driving the state into debt while politicians simply roll over for them.
Let me say this clearly: Unions are not "the enemy." This game of creating a boogeyman for our problems does nothing to get at the heart of any issues our state and country face.
The vilification of hard-working people has become so common in recent years that many of us forget just who unions and union members are and what they have done for all of us. ...

Golf Cart Rules Nixed in New Haven
Created by kmiller on 12/11/2013 6:48:18 AM
NEW HAVEN, Ind. (AP): The plug has been pulled on a proposal aimed at legalizing and regulating the use of golf carts on the streets of a Fort Wayne suburb.
The New Haven City Council voted unanimously Tuesday to kill the proposed ordinance after several contentious meetings on the issue.
Councilman Ron Steinman called the decision a sad one. He says golf carts will still be driven on city streets, but they will be unlicensed and without age limits, lights or safety standards.
Councilman Terry Werling says he proposed the golf cart ordinance because many elderly residents like to drive the carts around their neighborhoods and to attend events.

"The nation's most innovative, peaceful pro-life prayer outreach is coming to Sheboygan," said Sarah Weyker, who is coordinating the area's 40 Days for Life campaign. "We are eager to join together with people of faith and conscience from cities from coast to coast - and beyond - to pray for an end to abortion."
The campaign begins Feb. 13 and continues through March 24.
The campaign will feature a peaceful 40-day prayer vigil in the public right-of-way outside the Planned Parenthood at 2108 Kohler Memorial Drive. All prayer vigil participants are asked to sign a statement of peace, pledging to conduct themselves in a Christ-like manner at all times.
Forty Days for Life is a peaceful, highly-focused, non-denominational, pro-life initiative that focuses on 40 days of prayer and fasting, peaceful vigil at abortion facilities, and grassroots educational outreach.
The 40-day time frame is drawn from examples throughout Biblical history.
"Forty Days for Life has consistently generated proven life-saving results," said Shawn Carney, 40 Days for Life's national campaign director. "During 11 nationally coordinated campaigns, 481 communities have taken part. The efforts of half a million people of faith helped have made a tremendous difference."
"We've seen what 40 Days for Life has accomplished elsewhere," Weyker said. "We can't wait to begin here in Sheboygan."
To learn more about the campaign, visit www.40daysforlife.com. For specific information about the Sheboygan campaign, visit www.40daysforlife.com/Sheboygan.
For assistance or for more information, contact Weyker at email@example.com or Roseann Schuchardt at 920-917-8517.

Andrea Olsen
Monday: Golf
Tuesday: Boys tennis
Today: Girls track
Thursday: Boys track
Friday: Softball
Saturday: Baseball
Read about the Team of the Year and the rest of the All-Stars. Page C3
Before each race, Andrea Olsen looked to the sky for a little inspiration.
The Buena Regional High School senior was turning to the person immortalized on the outside of her right ankle with a tattoo of an Asics running shoe with angel wings, her late older brother, Todd Rocco Olsen, who passed away in 2011.
Andrea used to run with her brother and she credits him as one of the reasons she began track as a freshman.
This season, she gave him plenty to smile about.
Olsen finished the year as one of the top all-around runners in the state, qualifying for the Meet of Champions in the 200- and 400-meters and the 100- and 400-meter hurdles. She was seeded no worse than eighth in any event.
She won three events at the Cape-Atlantic League Championships, four at the Atlantic County meet and claimed Group II state titles in the 100- and 400-meter hurdles, breaking a meet record in the latter with a time of 1:00.58.
For her accomplishments, Olsen is the 2013 Daily Journal Girls Track and Field Athlete of the Year.
Injuries limited Olsens success before her senior campaign, so looking back on what she accomplished this spring is a bit overwhelming.
I was definitely surprised with it, Olsen said. It was so excited to get (to the Meet of Champions) and be seeded that high in everything. I thought I could be that good, but it didnt really hit me until I got there.
Buena coach Stephanie Winkler said its hard to ever expect an athlete to have a year like Olsen did, but she knew it was in her.
I knew when she was a freshman and she broke 59 (seconds) in the 400 she had potential, Winkler said.
A full season of health was the biggest difference for Olsen becoming an elite runner.
Shes always been driven from the first day she stepped on the track, Winkler said. But her being healthy was a big contribution.
Olsen finished her career with school records in the 100 (11.9), 200 (24.76) and 100 hurdles (14.17). She was also part of the record-breaking 4x400 team as a junior.
How did she feel she was able to reach such great heights?
(Coach) Winkler, Olsen said, without hesitation. She definitely got me where I am. And all the support from all the people on my team.
Winkler is also pretty good with predictions.
She told me I was going to be her state champ in the 400-meter hurdles this year before the season started, Olsen said. I thought she was crazy a little bit.
Of course, Olsen was running in the wake of last years 400 hurdles Meet of Champions winner, Helena Leyrer, who is currently competing at Mount Saint Marys.
I think she helped me, Olsen said. I dont really think Im in her shadow or anything. She pushed me last year. This year my goal was to always beat her times, so she helped me.
Olsen will continue her career at Monmouth, where shell run on an athletic scholarship. There, she wants to study to become a teacher and one day coach track.
But first, shell take some time off this summer.
Im definitely looking forward to taking a little break, I need it, Olsen said.
And she deserves it too.

What are Windowfarms & ReFresh Boxes?
Windowfarms are vertical indoor gardens for growing food in your windows, year-round. ReFresh Boxes are monthly packages delivered right to your door filled with delicious living food plants that you can transfer into your Windowfarm to grow and harvest at home daily!
What's inside a ReFresh Box?
ReFresh Boxes are filled with baby plants, seeds, and supplies for the care of your Windowfarm. Baby plant mixes are live plants specially grown and ready for transfer into your Windowfarm system. Flavor plans are available in three different types. They include edible plants like herbs, greens, edible flowers, tea ingredients, and small veggies. These plants are alive, with their roots growing in a coconut fiber pot that you can easily drop into your windowfarms system and continue to grow and harvest for each meal for weeks. Choose your mix type during the checkout process based on your lifestyle and cooking habits. We will send you ReFresh Boxes every month that restock your frequently used favorites and introduce you to something new. ReFresh Boxes are sized to your Windowfarm and based on the number of columns you have. We guarantee that you will have enough plants to fill all the planters of your Windowfarm every month with live plants or fast-growing seeds like arugula or wheatgrass.
What comes in the Windowfarm's hardware box?
The one-column, two-column, and four-column Windowfarms include the system only: wire frame, planters, reservoir and reservoir cover, timer, pump, rigid tube, flexible tubing, bottom tubing assembly, net cups, gaskets, base plate, rubber connector, ph testing strips, maintenance kit, eye dropper, and clay pellets.
How much does each column grow?
We recommend one or two columns per person, changed out monthly for the average harvest for home cooking. Each column can sustain 4-12 plants in the four planters, depending on the plant type. Each type of food plant has a different characteristics. Some plants are used in much larger quantities in cooking, whereas others are used more as accent. The rate of growth also varies widely among food plants. Some greens grow and are harvested very quickly, whereas other plants, like rosemary, chives, or tomatoes take several months to grow to a harvest-ready stage. Refresh Boxes are curated as an overall experience and optimized to give you ever-fresh ingredients and the joy of discovering something new in the bounty of edible Nature.
How much does a ReFresh Plan cost?
Our boxes range from 19.95 to 39.95 a month, plus shipping, for singles, couples, and families. You may start and stop your Windowfarms ReFresh Plan subscription anytime you like, meaning there's no commitment!
How do you process the recurring monthly payments?
Initially, you will be charged for your first box at the time you register for your subscription. Then you will be billed once a month for that month's subscription. The monthly recurring payment date depends on the date you signed up. If you signed up after the 15th of your first month, you are billed on the 1st of the month. If you signed up between the 1st and the 15th, you are billed on the 15th. Monthly subscriptions ship on the 1st Monday of the month and will arrive that Wednesday or Thursday via Fedex. Weekly subscriptions for business ship every Monday via Fedex. To get in on a given month's crop, make sure to complete your signup process before the countdown timer.
When are my Windowfarm & plants mailed to me?
Windowfarms hardware systems are sent out approximately the 15th of every month, give or take a day. Baby Plants ship in your ReFresh Box on the first Monday of the month. Please provide a reliable shipping address where someone will be available to receive the living baby plant package. Please be ready to open the box and transplant your Windowfarm Your baby plant package contains living plants that cannot survive more than two days in an enclosed box without sunlight, fresh air, or water. Windowfarms cannot be held responsible for plant death due to returned or delayed deliveries due to an unreliable shipping address. You'll receive an email notifying you of your tracking information! Please refer to our website policies.
How do I cancel my subscription?
Cancelling a subscription is easy! Just email to email@example.com with your name and address. We will send a confirmation email to the email address we have on file for the account. Once you have verified the email and confirmed that you want to cancel, we will cancel your subscription. Please note that all orders must be cancelled 48-hours prior to the 1st of every month.
Why do you only ship to the U.S.? What if I live outside the United States?
At this time, Windowfarms and ReFresh Boxes are only available for sale in the United States. Many international customs regulations apply to shipments of plants and gardening systems. If you would like to be notified when Windowfarms are available in your country, please leave your email address with us. You are welcome to use a freight forwarding service to service to manage an overseas delivery of hardware-only products. Bundles and subscriptions cannot be sent outside of the US due to customs restrictions. Windowfarms cannot be responsible for mishandling of freight forwarding orders and does not offer additional customer support services for freight forwarding orders at this time. Please carefully review the FAQs fully to find the information your service provider may need.
What comes with the Windowfarm's starter bundle?
The one-column starter bundle, two-column starter bundle, and four-column starter bundle includes everything in the kit mentioned above, plus Seaplex and CNS17 nutrients, and a coupon to redeem for baby plants, which you may do once you have set up your Windowfarm completely.
When and how are the baby plants shipped?
All baby plant orders are processed and shipped from our greenhouse once a week on Mondays via Fedex 2-day Air. Please provide a reliable shipping address where someone will be available to receive the baby plant package. Your baby plant package contains living plants that cannot survive more than two days in an enclosed box without sunlight, fresh air, or water. Windowfarms cannot be held responsible for plant death due to returned or delayed deliveries due to an unreliable shipping address.
Why do the baby plants ship separately from the box containing the Windowfarms kit?
When you order a Windowfarm starter bundle, the Windowfarm system ships before the plants from our warehouse in upstate New York. In the box you will find a Baby Plant Coupon, which you can redeem at any time through our online store to order your plants at no charge. The plants will not ship until you are ready to redeem the Baby Plant Coupon. Keep in mind that once you redeem this Baby Plant Coupon, the plants will ship via Fedex 2-day Air from a greenhouse. Because we are shipping living baby plants and not seeds, the baby plants should be taken out of the box immediately upon delivery and installed in your Windowfarm. You should have already received nutrients, in first shipment with the Windowfarm kit. We do this because if the Windowfarm and the plants shipped at the same time, you would get the baby plants first and they'd have no system to be transferred into, making it harder for them to survive.
What are the product dimension / size / weight (including box)?
One-column Windowfarm: Box is approximately 48" x 7" x 7" and weight is 8-10lbs
Two-column Windowfarm: Box is approximately 48" x 10" x 10" and weight is 15-19lbs
Four-column Windowfarm: Box is approximately 48" x 10" x 21" and weight is 28-34lbs
What is the return / refund policy?
Read our store policies here.
Tell me more about the plastic used in the Windowfarm system. Is the plastic BPA free?
Windowfarm containers are composed of FDA compliant materials and are safe for food contact. The plastics used in Windowfarm products are free of BPA. These plastics are called polypropylene (PP) and low density polyethylene (LDPE). Being non-polar polymers, PP and LDPE do not contain phthalates, which are used as plasticizers in molecularly polar polymers. Additionally the materials are engineered to remain unharmed by UV radiation for about 3-5 years. In order to protect Windowfarm containers from degradation, some conditions should be avoided. The planters should not be microwaved or heated above 212 F. Liquids containing more than 8% alcohol should also be avoided.
How do I mount my Windowfarm?
There are several ways of mounting your Windowfarm. We designed them to be modular and fit all kinds of different window architectures. Go ahead and take a look at the instructions that you will use to set up your Windowfarm. Here's the section about installation.
I am interested in purchasing Windwofarms for a school, university, or another educational institution. Can I use a purchase order or check?
At this time, Windowfarms are only available for purchase with a credit card through our online system. We do not yet offer the additional services of purchase order processing special requests for individual organizations. However, for bulk orders of 24 columns or more, we can make special arrangements with placement of a deposit. Please contact email@example.com to place a bulk order.
I am interested in a wholesale or bulk purchase, becoming a distributor, or establishing a drop ship affiliate sales arrangement.
Please contact firstname.lastname@example.com.
I think my Windowfarm or ReFresh Box is missing an item / one of my items was broken. Can I get a replacement?
Well, although we would love to be perfect, from time to time, we do make mistakes! We'd love to put your Windowfarm back in good standing just as soon as we possibly can. Please email firstname.lastname@example.com to speak with one of our customer service representatives and they'll take care of any problems. We want to ensure your Windowfarm is in tip top shape.
I live in New York City. Can I save money on shipping by coming to pick it up?
Howdy, Neighbor. We're sad to say that your local pickup is not going to work at this time. We do not have a store where you can pick up in New York and we do not carry stock here in the city. The Windowfarms ship from a warehouse in upstate New York. The plants go by two day air from one of our farmer partners and they are not here in the city either. At some point soon, we hope some of the urban farms here in the hood will have the capacity to work with us. For now, sending your baby plants by 2nd day air is the only way we can ensure that your little plants will arrive healthy and happy from farm to doorstep. If the cost of shipping is giving you pause, just think about how much money you will be saving on food waste. Every harvest you get from a Windowfarm grows back, so you save on blisterpack after blisterpack of fresh herbs, salads, supergreens, and other veggies.

Are Windowfarms organic?
We recommend and sell as many organic components as possible, however the term organic cannot really be applied to the whole system. We will address the question to each component of your Windowfarm's ecosystem separately.
All of the seeds we sell in the seed packs are organic from Seeds of Change or Fedco.
All of our farmers purchase their seeds from Johnny's Seeds, as do most farmers in the country. Johnny's sells both organic and conventional seeds. Our farmers do not use any GMO seeds.
Windowfarms do not need any kind of pesticides and our partner farmers do not use any chemical pesticides. Instead, the farmers cultivate healthy communities of beneficial insects that keep pests in check in the greenhouse. If you see any aphids or other pests on your windowfarms, just wash them off under a stream of water in the sink to get rid of them. Consider adding a few ladybugs to your Windowfarm ecosystem as prevention. Keep in mind that pests don't generally attack healthy plants, so we the best remedy against pests is to get good at growing, by following the best practices in the instructions and by asking the online community for help as soon as you see any signs of weakness.
It's important to remember that the term organic has a lot to do with soil and a windowfarm doesn't use soil. The plants roots sit in a mix of clay pellets and coconut hair and the roots are fed by water enriched by nutrients. We do encourage people to use organics and cultivate a beneficial microbe colony around plants roots int the Windowfarm. Since you are the one who will be adding the nutrients to turn your tap water into this liquid soil, we let you choose what you want to feed your plants– organic or mineral. But, as any farmer will tell you, 100% organic gardening is a second level skill and is pretty tricky to do well your first time. We want you to learn and succeed so we encourage new Windowfarmers to start off using a mix of organic techniques and mineral techniques. Thus, in the bundle we send you both. Keep in mind that plants can't eat anything organic, they can only eat inorganic matter, minerals. So when you feed them through water, even organics have to be broken down another level to inorganic matter by an ecosystem of microbes. In our bundles ,we give you a mineral based plant nutrient that has the most diverse trace nutrients we could find, it's Botanicare's CNS17. We have you combine that with an organic seaweed meal, Botanicare's Seaplex, that gives the rich variety of nutrients you find in the ocean. Over time, you can work your way up to using all organic nutrients, which we also sell.

As published on Hybrid Mom.
Search Engine Rankings (SEO) are a big mystery to a lot of people, and rightfully so–good rankings are hard to get and even harder to keep. Thankfully, how to achieve them is not necessarily something that you need to know how to implement yourself; a good customer oriented web developer will happily assist you with these things. So that you can keep up with the lingo when discussing it, though, I will detail the basics of what it is all about.
In the dynamic world of the global internet, it turns out you've got a lot of competition out there. Search engines, although similar in function, tend to work differently from each other. Even though there are dozens of search engines, the two that most people immediately know are Yahoo and Google.
Yahoo determines your page rank (how high up in the results you appear) by a number of methods. They examine your site (index it), they search out your keywords, they examine your meta-description and your meta keywords (these are located in the "header" of your first page of your website) and compare these to the actual content on your site. Your meta-description should be concise and to the point. My example is "Pages by Nancy creates custom websites, marketing materials for affordable prices and specializes in serving small businesses." See, I just put in relevant search words "custom websites, marketing materials, affordable," etc., so that people searching for "prices for custom websites" or someone searching for "small business custom website" may find me.
You should try to keep your relevant meta-keywords down to around 20 (these are also contained within the hidden area of your website known as "the header"). Keep in mind you do not need to reuse keywords…. for instance I wouldn't say "affordable websites, custom websites, websites for small business." Instead, I would say "affordable, websites, custom, small business." These words are read by a computer, so they don't have to be in any order or make sense when not placed together. They are what the search engine will use to try to find the most relevant words used by someone's search criteria.
Search engines also look at page names/titles. Each page on your site should be uniquely named with pertinent information as to what the page contains. Your Services page shouldn't just say "Pages by Nancy," it should say "Custom business cards, websites, marketing materials, blog installation and I.T. Support". These are all things that are relevant to the page and contain important keywords describing what you offer. Adding appropriate page titles is a crucial step in making your website visible on the internet.
Google is a bit different, and I caution people to tread lightly with them. They have the lion's share of internet search views, and if you do something that breaks their rules or their trust in your site, you can get blacklisted from their search engines. Google checks for practices that they feel are an attempt to trick them or web searchers; we've all clicked on that link that takes you to a spam or inappropriate page that seemed okay from the search results. The only way that I know of to get past being "blacklisted" is to get a new domain name and start over.
The Google ranking algorithm is a well kept secret, and many people are making their living attempting to decipher it. Here are a few things that I think I know to be true (I don't make my living deciphering them). Google will look at your unique page names and your meta description, but they'll ignore your meta-keywords. Instead, they will look at the first 100 words on your front page and determine their own list of keywords. They keep track of all sites linking back to yours and decide your popularity based on the amount of legitimate sites that link back to you. This could be in the form of a Mom blogger doing a review, a button ad on a legitimate site… or you leaving your web address in the comment section of a reputable blog.
From Google's perspective, link buying is a big no no. Trading links with companies that you don't know or have a relationship with is also something to avoid. You do not want your site associated with a company with a suspect or unknown reputation. You want what is called "Natural or Organic" rankings…. don't buy your rankings, you need to work for them.
As for the companies out there that promise to guarantee you front page rankings–well, the nicest thing to say is don't believe them all. I can't say that all of them are not legit, but I can say that many of them make me pause and wonder how they can make such a promise while keeping you in the good graces of Google. They may very well be doing things that can get you banned from Google, and in fact I know some folks who had that happen to them as a result of using an aggressive "we'll get you number one rankings" service. There ARE some legitimate Search Ranking Experts out there that can help, but none of the highly reputable ones that I know of are inexpensive. They're good at what they do and they can support their fees by being true experts in their field.
All of the search engines, will look to your site to include a sitemap and a robot text file. These should be created and uploaded by your designer at the time of your site launch on the internet. These files tell search engines what they're allowed to look at and what they should expect to find when cataloging your site.
Finally, you'll have plenty of time to exercise your patience. Good page rankings will not happen overnight and require some persistence to both achieve and maintain. When you first launch, it can take as long as two weeks for the search engines to crawl (search) your site and index it in their catalog. By performing a little research, you can improve your page rankings yourself, but if it feels overwhelming don't forget that your web designer should be able to help. Your designer will have tools available to them to monitor what the search engines find on your site, when it was crawled, and can provide useful feedback to assist you with adjusting your keywords before the next scan. After all, a website isn't complete unless it can be found on the internet.

There are no states in this country that have a blanket prohibition against the release of mug shots of suspects by police. New Jersey may become the first if a bill that advanced in an Assembly committee this week becomes law.
Gov. Chris Christie must not allow that to happen.
Most states consider mug shots public records. A handful allow for some discretion on the part of law enforcement officials or specific exemptions.
In New Jersey, the policies and guidelines regarding mug shots are so vague and confusing that even county prosecutors are baffled by the rules. Some authorities release them; some say the law prohibits them from doing so. Clarity is needed. And the public's right to know and public safety should be the chief considerations in clarifying the rules.
A bill approved by the Assembly Law and Public Safety Committee on Monday would amend the state's Open Public Records Act to make the photographs of anyone arrested, but not yet convicted, off limits to the press and public.
Another bill introduced in the state Senate by Sen. Teresa Ruiz, D-Essex, would prohibit websites that aggregate mug shots and other information obtained from criminal records to charge for removing them.
We strongly support a third bill relating to mug shots, introduced by Assemblyman Ronald Dancer, R-Ocean, that would require them to be made public. If someone has been arrested for a crime, whether it be for drug dealing, burglary or sexual abuse, their neighbors, co-workers and the broader community have a right to know about it. They also have a right to know what the suspect looks like.
The OPRA provisions regarding the release of police records require the timely release of information regarding arrests and other criminal activity for good reason: to alert the public to possible threats to their safety.
POLL: Should the use of suspects' mug shots be banned in NJ?
Releasing photos of the suspects, many of whom are quickly released on bail after their arrests, often can help connect the suspect to other crimes.
The Senate companion bill to the one approved Monday has yet to be discussed in the Senate Law and Public Safety Committee. Sen. Jim Holzapfel, R-Ocean, a member of that committee and a former Ocean County prosecutor, should do everything he can to convince colleagues that prohibiting release of mug shots is a step in the wrong direction.
Better yet, in the spirit of the Open Public Records Act, Christie should put an end to the discussions in the Legislature by issuing an executive order that succinctly directs prosecutors to release mug shots. There is no justification for treating them any differently than a suspect's name, arrest information and charges - details that are routinely released to the media by prosecutors.
The arguments favoring a ban on mug shots that were presented at the Assembly hearing this week have doubtlessly been heard - and largely ignored - by officials in 49 other states.
Christie must not allow those arguments to carry the day in New Jersey.
SOUND OFF: Does the public have the right to see a photo of someone accused of a crime ?

Thanks, David, for the website. I will check it out. I am not only a newbie to this community, but, relatively speaking, I am still a greenhorn to the darkroom (maybe 500 hours booked over the past 5 years). Now that I have my own DII and darkroom equipment, I hope to book a lot more hours. I am in the process of learning as much as I can about -- this website is a great place for me to hang out to learn from the veterans and other young bucks.
I'm still looking for three main items on ebay: a safelight, contact printer, and 3 print frames: 4x6, 7x5, and 8x10. Is "print frame" the right term? I think I have also heard print frames (the metal paper holders that are used to get a white edge on the print while you burn the image) called by different names. Is there an official term? Would love to hear anyone's 2 cents.

Jason Garrett: Eli Manning has overcome bad mistakes to play well in many big games
IRVING — Jason Garrett seems to genuinely respect New York Giants quarterback Eli Manning. When asked about the two-time Super Bowl MVP during a Monday press conference, Garrett gave a pretty basic answer.
The Cowboys coach said Manning was an outstanding player and one of the elite quarterbacks in the NFL. Garrett then pointed out Manning's two Super Bowl victories and ended by saying he's a smart player who can move around and make all of the throws.
The answer wasn't anything out of the ordinary and basically congruent with most of Garrett's responses about opposing players. But the former Cowboys and Giants backup quarterback recently opened up a little more about Manning in an interview with SI.com's Peter King.
While discussing quarterbacks, Garrett talked about a player's ability to survive adversity and bring his team back late in games. Both are attributes Garrett has witnessed Manning develop.
"People write all the time how great Eli is late, like he's never lost a game in the fourth quarter. That's inaccurate," Garrett said. "He has. He's made some bad mistakes late, with some bad interceptions at the wrong times. But it's the NFL. The NFL's hard. And Eli has come back to play well so many times in big games, which is one of the things I really admire about him.
"As much as the big plays — like the throw he made against the Patriots down the sideline late for [Mario] Manningham — what impresses me are the little plays. The consecutive passes he completed in the first half of the Super Bowl, just keeping [Tom Brady] off the field and moving the ball so efficiently. He plays the game so well from the shoulders up."

What you say I say
What you pray I pray
What you pray I pray

Jesus only did what he saw you do
He would only say what he heard you speak

He would only move when he felt you lead
Following your heart following your spirit

How could I expect to walk without you
When every move that Jesus made was in surrender

When given the opportunity to make an Easter Creation out of Mrs. Cubbison's Salad Croutons or their stuffing mix I was right on board. I have not really gotten into my Easter creations yet so this would jump start the process right!!
To see what others are coming up with or to share your own ideas, check out Mrs. Cubbison's website or Facebook Page.
My kids were thrilled when we were sent the Caeser Salad croutons in our package from Tomoson.com. My kids order caesers whenever possible.
But the trick then became how to make this an Easter Creation? My daughter suggested shaping the salad into an egg shape and decorating with the croutons etc. Brilliant! I used Barefoot Contessa's recipe for her Caeser, using roasted tomatoes. (parents enjoyed this but not so much the kids) **Her recipe makes enough dressing for 2 large salads. I used the pre-made Croutons also.
2 pints cherry tomatoes (I used one)
Good olive oil
Kosher salt
Freshly ground black pepper
2 large heads romaine lettuce
1 cup freshly grated Parmesan
For the dressing:
1 extra-large egg yolk at room temperature*
2 teaspoons Dijon mustard
2 large cloves garlic, chopped
8 to 10 anchovy fillets (optional)
1/2 cup freshly squeezed lemon juice (3 lemons)
2 teaspoons kosher salt
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1 1/2 cups good mild olive oil
1/2 cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese
Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
Place the tomatoes on a baking sheet and coat with olive oil. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Roast for 15 to 20 minutes, until soft.
Wash the lettuce leaves carefully and spin-dry in a salad spinner. Stack the leaves on a cutting board and cut them crosswise into 1 1/2-inch slices. Place them in a large mixing bowl.
For the dressing, place the egg yolks, mustard, garlic, anchovies, lemon juice, salt, and pepper into the bowl of a food processor fitted with a steel blade. Process until smooth. With the food processor running, slowly pour the olive oil through the feed tube (as though you were making mayonnaise), until thick. Add the grated Parmesan cheese and pulse 3 times.
Toss the lettuce with enough dressing to moisten well. Add 1 cup grated Parmesan and toss. Divide the lettuce among 6 or 8 plates and sprinkle with the pancetta roasted tomatoes. Serve at room temperature.
All these ingredients can be made in advance. Be sure they're room temperature when you assemble the salad.
If you're nervous about raw egg yolks, substitue 2 tablespoons of real mayonnaise.
Pancetta is Italian bacon. You can find it in your Italian grocery or a specialty food store. Insist that it's vut 1/2-inch thick.
* Raw Eggs
Food Network Kitchens suggest caution in consuming raw and lightly cooked eggs due to the slight risk of salmonella or other food-borne illness. To reduce this risk, we recommend you use only fresh, properly refrigerated, clean grade A or AA eggs with
The Stuffing recipe was not as successful. Half the family enjoyed the stuffing the other half did not. I enjoyed the combination but I guess I was trying to feel better about my decision to make this. I will give you Apricot and Sausage dressing recipe only. It will pair nicely with poultry or even ham.
APRICOT AND SAUSAGE STUFFING (easily doubled)
1/2 cup chopped celery
1/2 cup chopped onion
1 half of the package of stuffing mix
2 sausage patties
1/2 cup chopped dried apricots
1 3/4 cups of chicken stock, water or apple juice
1/4 cup of olive oil
Saute the celery and onion in the oil until transulent. Add the precooked patties and stir until warmed. Add the mix and apricots and stir well.
Cook in a preheated 350 degree oven for 20 minutes for a crispy top.
I received one or more of the products mentioned above for free using Tomoson.com. Regardless, I only recommend products or services I use personally and believe will be good for my readers.

Detroit Emergency Manager Kevyn Orr came to Lansing Tuesday, literally begging the state Legislature to approve a plan to send $194.8 million to the city to help settle its bankruptcy. / Mandi Wright/Detroit Free Press
LANSING — Detroit Emergency Manager Kevyn Orr came to Lansing Tuesday, literally begging the state Legislature to approve a plan to send $194.8 million to the city to help settle its bankruptcy or risk dismantling the carefully crafted bankruptcy settlement.
We have what we think is a reasonable plan, but to put it bluntly, we need your money, he told the newly created House committee on Detroits Recovery and Michigans Future. If we dont get the state settlement, our creditors likely would not approve the plan.

If the state disagrees, the $366 million pledged from the charitable foundations and $100 million from the Detroit Institute of Arts, would also be in jeopardy, Orr said. Such a scenario would result in pensioners taking a cut of 30-40%, instead of the 4.5% projected in the citys latest plan of adjustment for the bankruptcy, Orr said, and push them near poverty level wages.
A typical retiree with a $20,000 a year pension would drop to $12,000 a year without the states participation. Retired police and firefighters, who dont get social security to supplement their retirement, would drop from $35,000 to about $20,000 a year, Orr said.
Without this settlement, were going to have to go back to the drawing board, he said. And for some people, it would be catastrophic.
The city is working hard to cut down its debt and deficits, Orr told the committee members, with plans to drop retiree healthcare expenditures from $182.1 million a year to $22.6 million in 2018. Overall legacy costs for current and retiree health care and retirement account benefits currently take up 73% of the citys general fund revenues, and that would drop to 11% by 2023, Orr said.
The committees first hearing Tuesday began the process of considering an 11-bill package that will govern the states contribution to the settlement. It covers everything from the creation of an oversight commission that would have authority over the citys budgets, finances and contracts for 20 years, to requirements that new employees join a 401k-type retirement plan rather than the more costly defined benefit pension. Retiree health care would become a thing of the past, although the city could create health savings-type accounts for retirees.
Detroit is a legal subdivision of the state. The state has a responsibility. Its an inseparable part of the state, said state Rep. John Walsh, R-Livonia, the chairman of the committee and a supporter of the states participation in the bankruptcy settlement.

■ Related: U.S. government, Oakland, Macomb counties object to Detroit's bankruptcy plan
This is a once in a lifetime opportunity to fix Detroit and do it right, he added. We can pay now and do it right, or pay later.
Walsh said if the settlement doesnt happen and cuts become more severe to pensioners, many would fall into the social safety net and end up costing the state $275 million. The package of bills also would release the state from any lawsuits surrounding the bankruptcy, saving the state about $20 million a year in legal cots, he added.
Some lawmakers, however, remain uncommitted to the package which would pay the city with money from the states rainy day fund in one lump sum. That fund would be paid back over 20 years with proceeds from a tobacco settlement the state receives each year.
State Rep. Earl Poleski, R-Jackson, said he needs to hear more about the specific bills before he decides whether to support the cash infusion.
All of us want to make sure Detroit emerges from bankruptcy sooner rather than later, but only in a responsible and reasonable way that protects the city and the rest of the state, said state Rep. Earl Poleski, R-Jackson. Well either be satisfied or we wont.
How the state dedides to pay back the rainy day fund is irrelevant to the bankruptcy proceedings, said Orr.
Once we get the money in our hot little hands, how you repay yourself is up to you, Orr said.
The bills wont get an easy pass from Democrats or the unions. State Rep. Thomas Stallworth, D-Detroit, said he doesnt mind oversight from the state.
But the magnitude of the strings are a bit hard to swallow, he said.
Lisa Howze, the director of governmental affairs for the city and a former state representative, said her boss Detroit Mayor Mike Duggan, is concerned about the level of oversight contained in the bills.
Hed like the ability to demonstrate that were meeting the metrix and having some of that oversight lessened over time, she said. Self determination is the goal and thats the path that Detroit wants to be on.
Nick Ciamataro, legisative director for AFSCME Council 25, which represents thousands of Detroit employees, said the bills dont fit with the citys latest plan of adjustment on a number of fronts, including totally eliminating the pension program and retiree health care for new employees and creating a powerful oversight commission that reduces Detroits elected officials to mere advisors.
We just reached an agreement with Orr and if we can get back to that, things will be fine, Ciamataro said. Were hoping those are things that can be worked out and finessed.
Amendments are expected to be introduced next week, Walsh added, to address concerns brought up by unions and the city.
Legislators reluctant to support the package could gain some cover from their constitutents, according to a poll released Tuesday by EPIC/MRA, a Lansing polling firm.
Of 600 people responding, 62% said they supported the assistance for Detroit to help make pensioners whole and protect the art at the DIA from sale. Another 32% opposed the state support and 6% were undecided. Some 55% of the respondents said their legislators actions on the issue would not influence how they voted in November. And 25% said support for Detroit would make them more likely to vote for their legislator, while 15% said it would make them less likely to vote for their representatives in Lansing.
The committee plans to meet again at 11:30 a.m. Wednesday, and after session on Thursday; with Detroit Mayor Mike Duggan scheduled to testify on Thursday. They could vote on the package as soon as Tuesday of next week, Walsh said.
That fits with a timetable supported by Gov. Rick Snyder, said his spokeswoman Sara Wurfel.
You can clearly see the willingness of everyone having this conversation, she said. Our only timing is that this has to happen before the Legislature adjourns for the summer.

Principal process engineers are responsible for analyzing process technologies and proposal support for engineering activities for their organization. These individuals are organized and have strong analytical skills to plan and implement different principal processes for engineering services or creation of products. They participate in the development of strict schedules, guidelines, and budgets for their departments. They work with other engineers to find ways to improve processes and find innovative solutions for determining priorities.Read More...
Some of their main functions include creating diagrams and processing simulations to verify the feasibility of the projects. They use a personal computer loaded with office and engineering software to modify process flow and block diagrams and adjust variables that can be scaled in the future. Principal process engineers review and approve data sheets to be implemented during the principal process. They actively participate in engineering training sessions to provide expert knowledge in principal processes and act as a mentor to junior engineers. They oversee correct completion of control schemes and approve engineering calculations in model scaled systems. These individuals work in a fast-paced environment and use their advanced multitasking skills to participate in several projects at once. They write and develop engineering documentation for future reference. Principal process engineers follow strict engineering codes to prevent incidents when completing engineering tasks. They report their progress to the principal process manager in their company. They are the main point of contact for vendors, engineering experts, and clients.
A bachelor's of engineering in processes or a related field is required for this job. Previous years of work experience in an engineering capacity can be helpful. Industry and leadership certifications are a plus.

Many Principal Process Engineers move into a Senior Principal Process Engineer role, which does not lead to a big boost in pay. Senior Principal Process Engineers on average bring in a similar salary to Principal Process Engineers. Principal Process Engineers most often move into Chemical Engineer or Principal Process Development Engineer roles. However, the former pays $48K less on average, and the latter pays $12K less.
Principal Process Engineers who responded to the survey indicated only a few skills that they use on the job. Most notably, skills in Chemical Process Engineering, Manufacturing Process Engineering, Engineering Design, and Project Management are correlated to pay that is above average. Skills that seem to negatively impact pay include Process Improvement. Those educated in Chemical Process Engineering tend to be well versed in Engineering Design.
Median of all compensation (including tips, bonus, and overtime) by years of experience.
Experience does not seem to be a strong driver of pay increase in this role. Inexperienced workers earn around $94K, but people who have been around for five to 10 years pull down a much higher average of $103K. Principal Process Engineers claiming one to two decades of experience make an estimated median of $123K. Respondents who claim more than 20 years of experience may encounter pay that doesn't quite reflect their extensive experience; these veterans report a median income of around $133K.
