And it�s pretty good. As good as an average RLD or Platinum X picture. Maybe a little better picture quality and overall presentation � though I didn�t think the body makeup was all that great as I saw some bumps and pimples on a few of the girls. Overall the sex and blowjobs are reasonably hardcore � I saw an overly healthy amount of salvia during the blowjob scenes.
The standout scene for me (though they are all pretty good) was the final scene with girlie Sharon Wild. Nice gaper ass girl - it was an all around good scene. I won�t spoil too much of the ending, but her bra winds up in her mouth soaked in cum and she is left to gobble it down.
American Hardcore is an all-new studio (are they a spin-off?) to me � their website shows a few other movies that have been released (Double Gulp which looks to be a 2 on 1 style movie; �Hardcore Double Muff Stuff Swallow� declares the back cover and Girls Suck (�Girls That Pucker for the Custard Chucker�), which looks like a POV blowjob movie) and overall looks to be fairly promising.

July 28, 2003
Two years ago when noted usability guru Jakob Nielsen flaunted his disdain for PDF in an "Alertbox" column, he also
showcased his glaring lack of familiarity with the format. Knowledgeable users could take -- and dismiss -- his criticisms
for what they were: Uninformed opinions. Unfortunately, his flawed comments were likely accepted at face value by those less
experienced with Adobe Acrobat and PDF, who didn't understand (as Nielsen didn't) that many of the alleged shortcomings he
cited were really the fault of document authors and not the portable document format itself. We hoped Nielsen might become a
bit more enlightened on the subject before he wrote again.
Two weeks ago we discovered in his July 14 column that while times -- and versions of Acrobat and the PDF specification --
had changed, Nielsen's opinions and level of understanding had not. He repeated most of his debatable criticisms in a new
column titled "PDF: Unfit for Human Consumption." Many fans of the format found his latest rant a bit hard to digest, as
we've shared in several recent features and/or Weblog entries.
It appears time now to abandon hope that Nielsen will ever come to understand the flaws in much of his anti-PDF
commentaries. Based on yet another column posted today titled "Gateway Pages Prevent PDF Shock," it's evident that he's
not someone open to making new discoveries (or in publishing corrections).
For a brief instant, we found a small point of agreement with Nielsen in his latest missive: As a user, it's unpleasant to
be surprised when clicking what appears to be a standard Web link only to discover that Acrobat or Reader (or another helper
application) is suddenly being launched in the background to handle the linked file. When a Web-based link points to a PDF,
there needs to be an obvious indicator -- such as the graphical Adobe PDF icon, or at least some brief text marker, such as
[PDF] (as we typically do at Planet PDF). Better yet, also include the document's file size so the user has some notion of
what to expect in terms of download or display.
Nielsen's fear of PDF is apparently so great, he proposes in the latest column that when linking to PDF documents, Web
publishers ought to create separate gateway pages that describe a PDF and include the actual download link. Or in his biased
phrasing, the gateway page should "clearly warn users that they'll be getting a PDF file." Warn?! How about
'inform?' But that's still not his preference, as he makes clear:
"Ideally, companies would reformat each type of information [I.E. annual reports, press information, employee
handbooks and product data sheets] for online use."
How thankful PDF enthusiasts are that many companies and organizations see the folly (and expense) of converting
everything to browser-dependent HTML! And as we described in a previous Weblog entry, converting a corporate document to text
or HTML for posting on the Web is no guarantee of usability.
Nielsen takes his PDF-bashing nonsense even further, suggesting that *if* you publish content in PDF, you should make sure
the files are *not* indexed by Internet search sites. He proposes the use of a robots.txt file to steer search spiders away
from PDF files! Isn't this taking his phobia a bit far? If he chooses not to personally read PDF files because he finds them
so challenging, then so be it. But for the many Reader-equipped Netizens who don't break into a cold sweat at the sight of a
PDF turning up in a Google search, let them be indexed! Is he really in favor of deepening the Internet's "Black Hole" --
information that can't be found using traditional search tools, even though it exists and may be very relevant to what
someone is searching for? Is there any logic in such a suggestion?
Here's a better one: If you have an anal attitude about seeing PDFs in your Net searching results, Google's 'Advanced
Search' provides a handy option -- let's call it the "Nielsen Setting."
Under the "File Format" search option:
Of course, if you want to search for *only* PDFs on a given topic, simply change the first "File Format" option.
But Nielsen isn't done just yet: He saves a few final paragraphs of his recent diatribe against PDF to label its use
for forms "a bad idea."
Nielsen still clings fiercely to an idea he posed at least as far back as 1996 (Alertbox: "In Defense of Print") -- that
PDF "should never be read online."
Since he's chronicling "bad ideas," it's really time to include that one.

To Choose a President
Today's post originally appeared in the 2012 Summer Issue of Prologue magazine, and was written by Archivist of the United States David S. Ferriero.
The Electoral College. Established 1787.
It isn't really a college, and the electors aren't tenured professors.
The electors are really voters, and their votes count in a very big way.
The electors were created by the Constitution to do only one thing: elect the President and Vice President of the United States. The Electoral College became part of the Constitution at the Constitutional Convention in Philadelphia in 1787, when delegates assembled to devise something to replace the Articles of Confederation.
Some delegates wanted Congress to choose the President, but that would have upset the balance of power among the three branches of government. Others called for direct popular vote, but that would have left the decision in the hands of ill-informed voters who knew little about politicians outside their home state.
So they created electors. And they hoped the electors would be some of brightest and best informed people who would base their decisions on the candidates' merit. (Each state gets as many electoral votes as it has members in the Senate and House.)
Today, the Electoral College's activities are overseen by the National Archives. We delegate this duty to our Office of the Federal Register, which every … [ Read all ]

Working out: Covington YMCA facility celebrates 10 years
On Feb. 19, 2000, the Covington Family YMCA moved from a small red brick building known as the "teen can" on Newton Drive into its current facility next door. Since that time, membership and programming have grown substantially. This year, the YMCA is marking its 10th anniversary in its present building, made possible in large part through community donations.

Our View
The Nov. 6 national election seems long ago - probably because not much has happened in Washington since President Obama was re-elected and Republicans and Democrats retained control of the House and Senate, respectively.
Meanwhile, however, Americans eagerly await signs of progress toward a solution in the nation's fiscal crisis. The president and top congressional leaders seem to be moving at a snail's pace, but they may be getting a nudge from some Republicans who have had it with the politics of gridlock.
Among those leading the way is Tennessee Sen. Bob Corker, who announced in a Washington Post op-ed on Sunday that he has a bill that would produce $4.5 trillion in fiscal reforms and replace sequestration, the dreaded automatic across-the-board cuts scheduled to kick in in January.
On Monday, he told CBS News' Charlie Rose that he was not obligated to honor Grover Norquist's anti-tax pledge that he and practically every other Republican politician had agreed to in the past few years. Georgia Sen. Saxby Chambliss led the march away from the promise last week, with Sens. Corker, Lindsey Graham of South Carolina, John McCain of Arizona and Rep. Peter King of New York joining in.
"The only thing I'm honoring is the oath I take when I serve when I'm sworn in this January," Corker said Monday. The Tennessean applauds Sen. Corker for seeing the light.
Norquist's pledge has been a major stumbling block to Congress serving its constituents, preventing any real discussion about reasonable compromises that would get the nation's economy back on track and ensure that future generations will not be burdened with Greece-like debt and widespread poverty.
Sen. Corker has taken his abrogation of the pledge a step further with his legislation. His proposals to correct the fiscal imbalance include creating $1 trillion in revenue by reducing tax deductions for the wealthiest Americans and reforming entitlement programs, among other ideas.
The bill builds on policy options that were discussed in Congress in 2011 and earlier this year, only to stall because of election-year politics and, of course, the Norquist pledge. Since so much of the spadework has been done, Sen. Corker insists, a solution is achievable by the end of this year.
"It's so much easier just to make a decision" than to adopt stopgap measures that would push a real solution into next year or beyond, Corker told The Tennessean yesterday. That is the kind of clarity that Tennesseans have been waiting to hear - and it's just what the senator's colleagues on Capitol Hill need to hear.
During the past four years, we repeatedly have been told by our elected officials what our real priorities are; and often, they turned out to be the priorities of special-interest groups who were contributing heavily to those elected officials.
The majority of Americans in independent polls and on Election Day voted for both major parties to work together to resolve our overarching economic problems. It's nice to see that more lawmakers now "get it," even if reluctantly.
Sen. Corker's plan deserves a look from the president and congressional leaders - and there is no time to waste.

Nah, the Alonso of 2011 at least would have a good chance against Hamilton, that's for sure!
@ the two guys above me: good videos, thanks for posting
Alonso really took some extra speed with the short tow + KERS and braked very late where Jenson backed out of it early. Not sure if Button already used up all his KERS, probably due to DRS. Anyone with info on that one?
Well what he says is that he didn't want to go through the debris previously left by Senna and Schumi.

|India – Spring 2007
Journal 17 - March 30 - April 1
We finished our first week of classes. It sure is different to be attending classes and have a pretty regular time. Also this week was filled with a lot more free time than most of us have been used to. That was filled with Hindi homework though.
This weekend we went on a houseboat on a tour of the backwaters. We got on the boats Saturday afternoon. We had six different boats, so we got to be split up into smaller groups. The boats were very nice and relaxing. We spent the day just reading and soaking up some sun. In the evening the boats docked and we ate supper and docked for the night. We then headed back at breakfast time. It was a short weekend trip, but it was very nice to be able to get away from the center and have a relaxing time on the backwaters.

Lacquer with mother–of–pearl and tortoiseshell inlay (over pigment) and brass wires; H. 1 5/8 in. (4.1 cm), L. 4 in. (10.2 cm)
Fletcher Fund, 1925 (25.215.41a,b)
During the Goryeo period, lacquerware with mother-of-pearl inlay (najeon chilgi) reached a high point of technical and aesthetic achievement and was widely used by members of the aristocracy for Buddhist ritual implements and vessels, as well as horse saddles and royal carriages. Inlaid lacquers combine texture, color, and shape to produce a dazzling effect in both large and small objects. Although Korean lacquerware of the Goryeo period was highly prized throughout East Asia, fewer than fifteen examples are known to have survived, one of which is this exquisite box in the Museum's collection. This paucity of material is largely attributable to the fragility of lacquer objects and, to a certain extent, to wars and raids by foreign powers, notably those launched from Japan by Toyotomi Hideyoshi (15361598) in the late sixteenth century.
This three-tiered box is inlaid with mother-of-pearl and painted tortoiseshell on a black lacquer ground to produce a dense pattern of chrysanthemum flowers and foliate scrolls. The edges of the box are reinforced with twisted brass wire. The thin pieces of translucent tortoiseshell were painted on the reverse with red and yellow pigments, and the pieces then applied to the object with the painted side face down. The combined use of mother-of-pearl and tortoiseshell is apparently peculiar to Korean lacquer, although it must be pointed out that the combination of mother-of-pearl and tortoiseshell inlaid into hardwood is seen on a number of musical instruments, all probably of Chinese origin and dating from about the eighth century, in the Shoso-in in Japan.
Extant contemporaneous objects in both celadon and lacquer suggest that this box was one of four that fit around a central round box. These boxes have traditionally been identified as "cosmetic boxes," though it is unlikely that all of them were used for this purpose. The presence of Buddhist imagery on related examples suggests that boxes of this kind were part of a set of incense containers that encircled a box in which a Buddhist rosary might have been kept.

"You've got consumers that are going to be cheated," Kibble said. "Profits are stolen from the American business. For those reasons we remain very concerned."
Authentic NFL merchandise will have a hologram on it. However, Kibble says that some knockoffs are so good that even the holograms can be counterfeited.

With the new partnership, Avnet Memec is chartered with sales and value-added support for InvenSense's MotionTracking devices throughout Europe and Israel.
"Aligning with InvenSense is very exciting as they have industry-leading MEMS sensors, and their 6- and 9-axis MotionTracking devices are particularly compelling and innovative," said Steve Haynes, President of Avnet Memec. "Also, their proven products meet the expanding demands of consumer electronics OEMS, as well as industrial and automotive manufacturers. Our agreement with InvenSense is poised to open new and exciting opportunities for both organizations throughout Europe."
"The demand for InvenSense products is growing throughout the pan-European region," said Behrooz Abdi, President and CEO of InvenSense. "As Avnet Memec has a worldclass sales and support infrastructure that is intensely focused on customer support and demand creation, it is an ideal partner to increase InvenSense's footprint in this region."
About InvenSense MotionTracking devices
MotionTracking devices are widely deployed in many consumer electronic devices including smartphones, tablets, gaming consoles, and smart TVs as they provide an intuitive way for consumers to interact with their electronic devices by tracking motion in free space and delivering these motions as input commands. Accurately tracking complex user motions requires the use of motion sensors such as gyroscopes, accelerometers, compasses, and pressure sensors. Fusing the sensor outputs into a single and accurate data stream for use as input commands in consumer electronics devices ensures an optimal user experience.

Sure this is right Mr.Mwango coz out here, NOT even your driving license will be accepted…
(…Global challenges towards Effective Education in Zambia.)
The dual citizenship gives people practical advantages such as more employment opportunities, education, easy travel and entitlement to the social programs of both countries. Though possessing two nationalities has some disadvantages too, this is not my interest in this article.
We can't talk about the dual citizenship and ignore the most important issues surrounding the idea. Education is one of the issue. You will agree with me that over 40% of Zambians who are in foreign countries left the country with the motive of studies, some are successfully in universities and others are not due to an unacceptable Certificate, Diploma, etc in a particular country.
When the draft for Zambian Constitution reached the hands of the public, some issues where liked and accepted by most Zambians just in the first session and others were debatable. The dual citizenship was one of the ideas which were welcomed by many Zambians who are in foreign countries and many other local business men and women.
But we cannot talk about dual citizenship without talking about the key to every success which is Education. Dual Citizenship-Dual Education, but is our Certificates, Diplomas or Degrees, acceptable in foreign countries?
In dual citizenship it's not only the political and social relationship between Zambia and any other adopted country but academic relationship as well, Therefore, there is need for the government of Zambia to strengthen the academic grades to meet the standard in many countries, due to the fact that most of our family members, friends and fellow citizens who go out for studies, their Certificates, Diplomas etc are not easily accepted in most universities.
Today in many countries the Zambian Embassy Offices face this challenge from many students who are denied in schools and the Embassy has no idea of how to help these students or job seekers. Hence, there is high demand for Examination Council of Zambia (ECZ) to look into this issue as well, so that our people don't get desperate out there. They say; the world has become a village due to Technology studies and Zambia is part of this global system.
Hence, there is need to secure our Zambian people before they leave our country and we can only do this by strengthening the Education sector (grades) it is noted that some Zambians with good papers are denied to enter in universities to upgrade their papers and when these people can't find school or work, they end up finding lawless businesses for survive. Now can it be that our academic "Grade" is that low to meet the International Education Standards?
Law and rules surrounding the dual citizen in Zambia should not forget to consider this important issue because education is the key to every success in every state. Education is the best security for our brothers and sisters out there. So lets put this into consideration before dual citizenship becomes an issue.
Martin Mwango
Sure this is right Mr.Mwango coz out here, NOT even your driving license will be accepted…
When i renounced my Zambian citizenship my foreign spouse convinced me to adopt citizenship of the country i got married in .. only to find out later that i was in a country of racist Nazi skinheads who kill black people for fun. I'm scared for my life and just want to come back to my motherland and country of birth. At the time of renouncing the Zambian status i was not advised properly by the Zambian embassy in that country. Now am called nigger, monkey go back home. Black people here are hunted like animals. As black people we need to protect our own kind, we are an endangered spieces in racist europe!
Dual tribalniship.After I announced my Kolwestan tribalniship in Buntustan only to be called jikala go back to Bembaland here its one bantustan one hungry heyna.No bantustan no UPND.

Dual citizenship is not different with bilateral relationship; the government has with other european any other countries in the world. So i see no reason why this important thing cannot be implimented by a peaceful nation like Zambia. Mr Micheal Sata's example of one person cannot be a catholic and at the sametime to be Anglican is incorrect. Logically speaking you should not say people should come back to Zambia without thinking on the children they have while abroad something that regards the children who are born outside can be denied a citizenship from their fathers origine Zambia. Please free men we stand under the flag of our right think about this words you sing always without reflecting much how it means. Improving the eduction sector according to me this sector has many ammendments to make that are touchable the way education is setup should correspond with other international grades to move with time modern time not colonial time i rest my case
Acceptability of our education statuses all over the world has nothing to do with mediocrity. It is a means of those countries protecting theeir own. If they need our nurses, our education is best for others it rubbish!
Mr. Mwango, you are exposing your ignorance here about the dual citizenship clause. It has nothing to do with people immgration from Zed To other countries with certificates or diplomas. This is rather the migration of Zambians who may have left Zambia and acquired other citizenship in the countries they reside and want to reclaim back their original birth place so they can contribute to mother Zambia after being educated by mostly the developed western countries.But you are worried about a certificate you acquired from kitwe or kabwe trades institute? No wonder this issue has been misunderstood. we in the diaspora feel bad that we cannot inject back or contribute wholeheartedly back to a country that raised us up.we were born and raised in Zambia before we came over here got educated, highly for that matter, so we think we can marshal resources back to were we came from and help st.upid people like you get employed, if for example we open a business out there.i wonder who even gives space here for mediocre articles .
which business can you open iwe mambala nga money where are you going to get it from.I have collegues in the UK who have been pestering me to have them access CEEC loans. Just continue ukupipa amafi utukote and staying in a one roomed council flat, meanwhile ifwe ma mansion those you just envy in the UK plus na Janet C pambali.
@ Zemuntu – ???? What do you mean 'Janet c pambali' – check yourself, zipime before quoting me
@Janet C, didnt i tell u that madam has your initials, bushe if i mention Janet C ninshi niwebo. sakalonyongo iwe
@Janet C, ati Zipime myself, tawaumfwako ati umusana wanzili shilokafye
@ Zemuntu – if 'madam' is truly your wife, why do you refer to her as 'pambali'?? Stop telling lies because you have just exposed your own lies
@Janet C, learn a bit of CB lingua
Ka Janet c, kobe pambali ni ka kakanunks. akakacena ka septic tank kunshi. Yuck……….
You Ka Zemuntu, Janet C is mine and not yours. Ask her, she will tell off. Zipime before quoting my Janet C.
what a moron, you should be glad that your fellow native people want to come back and increase your population.. you are a weak country compared to "Population: in China 1,344,130,000 (2012 census)"
You need every native Zambian to come back home especially people who have travelled the world. afterall they have been pumping money into the country for decades to help you aşşholes like you back Home>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

Ba Zemuntu muli bolofye tata.Come to my base in Sweden and i will show you how shallow your existance is.
@Bijou, shut up iwe immigrant aka economic refugee, lol
I mean, the foreign nation you go to will always wish to emphasize to you that yoi've come to a superial world than where you are running away from. You can help your nation develop even without dual citizenship!
For you 'our economic refugees' can you explain to us what dual citizenship will make you do for homeland which you've failed to do currently? I use the 1st world for business to develope my coner of Zed
@beb, you raise a valid point for Mwango but kindly answer why you have failed to help Zed & think dual citizenship will make you do that. With China rising, I see U asking for Trio-citizenship. I do business globally.
Ba beb mulichipuba ichikulu sana. If you have failed to invest in zambia because of lack of funds, just say so than blame your failures on Zambia not having dual citizenship.
let us not encourage this dual citizenship. it is either you are Zambian or not. are we not proud of being Zambians? what is wrong with us? even if you get citizenship for another country, they will still treat you as a "second class" citizen. the national service that is being re-introduced should teach our children on national pride and patriotism.
Learn to love your people. You are full of hate! The muzungu is planing to wipe out all the "filth" and enjoy the planet to themselves not even the "Invisible Muzungu God" they brainwashed your dunderheadness with will help you out of this…
Stop tribalisim, stop the hate learn to love you own people first before you love a non-existing old white when man that lives on a cloud!!
BA Beb are u f***ing serious. u must be a yo bally who ran away to the states and not highly educated as u claim…if foreign education makes u dumb like that the please I will have certificate from Kitwe trades anyway. this nation does not need the diaspora to develop. wht we need is Right between our ears
Mr Mwango, with this poor English of yours coupled with your certificate which you got by leaked exam papers, do you think you can get a job abroad? Forget the diaspora and start street vending locally.
What has zambia to offer over duo education and citizenship.in america if you are offered a green card and later a citizenship.if you try to leave that country and comeback,they will still call you an immigrant even when you attended your entire education their.both high school and elementary education.racism and discrimination is go'damn hellshit around ,you know wa am sayin' if suppose your wife gives birth here in chicago u wil be issued a birth citificate but grow up and apply 4 a passport,it will be damned and you shall never be employed in govt and states deptments that is you with their education papers and experience.u check that out! so mr mwango this transaction is not vital. Jst abush it.and leave to single not dual.
2 of my blood relations are british. They have begged me to join them (esp that my 1st degree is science based) sorry I have my own diaspora in Zed. Where in UK or US can I have 250Ha of titled land to my name?
When are you coming to your ka desert country where cave men with bow and arrow still exit
@Kakolwe, my post was not meant for you but for Barotse dispora.
Haters where are you??? we need your comments here
Africans will soon be the minority in africa. If you keep the majority of well educated african people out you are doomed.
Dual citizenship fyabupuba why are you scared of been a Zambian.
You will die stupid!
Do you need dual citizenship to come back home? If its best where you are, just live it up & seek no further citizenship. & for U comparing China Population to Zed, have you also compared surface area? This is how diverse the web is, nobukopo too much but hapily insulting away!
Its dissapointing to read insults and not constrative debate about a genuine challenge some people are facing. When you get used to insults like this the only place you can leave is Zambia. Stop insults people. Civilisation please its 21st Century
My comment ba Tumfweko; yashani?
@karanoshmu son of a bic*how do u cal my wife a white bitch imbwa iwe!
Chabipa..But that's the TRUTH Id!ot…
What chabipa iwe idiot? Ist yo fault to be in diaspora.continue languishing in chibolwa ci color naufwa ka sta mbwa! Be educated
I love Zambia… Mr. Mwango when are you going in diaspora am sure you can do better out there…
@ Barotse what education are u talking about Chik@l*..ifintu nafikushupa…leave my Chibolwa out of this Id!ot..way mwana wa mbw@ iwe…
most of you do not understand the concept of due citizenship of this article, and you are commenting rubish. Please your interity lies on how you portlay yourself whether in zambia or Abroad. can this due citizenship qranted to the people of Zambia outside or not Mr president and the legistrature? it's their rights i thing…..we are want this costitution process finishes with this problem solved mwalatulaba nifwe fwe ba vota not your interests but for the development of every Zambian in or out………if infrastructure is need in all sectors please we need that including education, in places where enlish is not spoken it is difficult acquire a school
Ba wishi whats your point????
@popopopopopopo, iwe kapoli improve your englich nangu use nyanja or bemba coz you have just wasted our time trying to decipher the shit you are trying to put across.

Manorville man gives children gift of fishing
Dale Ortmann is hooked on sharing his love of fishing with children in and around Armstrong County.
The 39-year-old Manorville resident started giving away fishing rods about a year ago. Last week, he gave away his 150th rod.
According to Ortmann and his wife, Shannon, 33, the endeavor was inspired by her grandfather, James H. Swarts of West Leechburg.
Before he passed away last year at 87, Swarts gave Ortmann more than two-dozen fishing poles. Those, combined with Ortmann's own collection, inspired him to give back.
"He told us to keep what you want, give away the rest," Shannon said. "And that's what we did."
The couple had spent plenty of time fishing with Swarts along the Allegheny River in Manorville.
"He was a great man," Ortmann said. "I had great respect for him. He kind of rubbed off on me."
He thinks that Swarts would appreciate his efforts.
"That's what I'm hoping," Ortmann said. "He was a charter member of the Allegheny Township Lions Club. He was always helping out, and I figured, where else should the fishing rods go, instead of sitting in my garage and doing nothing?"
Though Ortmann started with a cache of rods and reels from Swarts' and his own collection, by the time he gave all of those away, he had more.
Friends, neighbors and strangers started dropping off fishing rods and tackle on his front porch. And they still do.
A week ago, someone left 15 poles and three tackle boxes at the Ortmann house.
"We don't know where they came from, but we're grateful," Shannon said.
Ortmann takes fishing rods and reels in just about any shape. He estimates that a quarter of those he receives need repairs. He fixes them up from his front porch, which now doubles as a workshop.
Ortmann puts new fishing line on all the rods, greases them up with WD-40 and tests them out. That way, he's giving away a fishing rod that he knows is ready for action.
"You don't want them to catch a big fish and have the line snap because you have old string on," he said.
If there's a problem with a rod or reel that he can't identify, he takes to the Internet. Researching there, usually with Youtube, helps him to find out what to do.
Fixing the rods and reels usually comes easy to Ortmann, however. Trained as a draftsman, he often is able to see how the pieces should go together "like a puzzle."
For as much as he enjoys piecing donated rods back together, it's other, more personal connections, that resonate with Ortmann and his wife.
The couple, who have no children, take pride in showing children how to fish. That includes everything from how to tie a hook, reel in a fish or even how to stay safe on the river.
Ortmann not only gives the rods to children, he'll often give their parents a rod, too, so they can fish together. Many of the children in the area, he said, are disadvantaged, so they may not be able to afford a fishing pole.
"Some of my favorite childhood memories growing up are when I was fishing," Ortmann said. "It takes you places. It's always a change of scenery."
Ortmann would have never imagined his endeavor would catch on like it did.
"I had no clue," he said. "I thought I'd be giving away about 12, but after awhile, people just started dropping them off, and more people came to pick them up."
Theresa Peat, 45, of Ford Cliff shares Ortmann's love of fishing. And with his help, she's able to share that love with her own children.
Ortmann has given rods to Peat's children, Jozie, 12, twins, Tanner and Lane, 10, and James, 8.
"We have so many kids that come around, and they don't have fishing poles," she said.
She likes the fact that Ortmann is helping children, instilling in them knowledge of fishing and water safety before they are teens.
"That's very special to him," she said. "And the kids love him to death."

Surely, it was just a coincidence - though an apt one - that the State of the Union address was on Fat Tuesday.
It is impossible not to love Fat Tuesday, especially in the old Polish parts of Wisconsin, where there must be a million paczkis baked and stuffed and drizzled with powdered sugar. Heidi Schuerstedt made 4,000 just in her bakery in Paddock Lake alone - including half a dozen for me.

- -Third-graders at School 50, work on Scantron math tests The online test asks more challenging questions as students continue to answer correctly just as questions get easier if students are struggling. The test provides much staff with results much faster and more detailed than paper tests. (032703 Staff Photo by Jamie Germano, Democrat & Chronicle, )
- Filed Under
Standardized tests are designed to guarantee that many students will not do well in comparison to other students taking the same test. They are designed so that no student should be able to finish the test in the time allotted, and they are designed to be more difficult than the learning objectives for the subject being tested require. Poor performance by a large block of students is guaranteed. This is all done in the name of statistics.
The test designers need test score results that form a nice bell-shaped curve (normal distribution): one that has nice tails at both ends and a hump in the middle. This distribution makes the job of the test interpreters easier. It allows them to draw numerically supported conclusions that they otherwise could not. The worst thing that could happen, as far as they are concerned, is that everyone would do well on the test. They make sure that this is not going to happen.

|Quetiapine induced hypomania: a case report and a review of the literature.
MedLine Citation:
|PMID: 22950378 Owner: NLM Status: Publisher
|Objectives: The 5-HT2 antagonistic action of quetiapine may disinhibit the dopaminergic system enhancing dopaminergic activity in the forebrain and influencing the mood state. Our objective is to investigate the possible induction of manic symptoms by quetiapine through a case report and a review of the literature.Method: We report the case of a 54 year old woman suffering from bipolar depression who developed hypomania seven weeks after the initiation of 300 mg/d of quetiapine. A literature review concerning the induction of hypomania or mania by quetiapine have retrieved the presence of seven similar case reports or series.Results: Available literature points toward an early induction of hypomania or mania with low dosage of quetiapine treatment (between 100 and 400 mg/day never exceeding 600 mg/day). Hypomania or mania are possible short term complications that can be present few days to few weeks of treatment initiation. The discontinuation of the drug or the increase of its dose seems to reverse the hypomanic or manic symptoms. Patients described in the literature suffer mostly from schizophrenia.Conclusion: The atypical antipsychotic drug quetiapine, which have antidepressant properties at low doses via its indirect dopamine enhancing activity due its serotoninergic antagonism, appears to be involved in the induction of rare hypomanic or manic state in patients suffering from bipolar disorders and to have mood stabilizing properties at higher doses when its dopamine antagonist activity becomes more prominent. Its manic/hypomanic induction properties should not prevent its administration to patients suffering from bipolar disorder.

Playoff Schedule
News Journal staff report
LEXINGTON -- As disappointing as it was for B.J. Payne and his Lexington Minutemen, Friday's loss to Ashland could be a blessing in disguise.
The Minutemen, who open Division II playoff action Friday at Sylvania Southview, understand what awaits them.
"It was a great atmosphere, a playoff atmosphere, and two great teams were playing," Payne said. "Playing in a game like that will do nothing but benefit us. Once you get to the playoffs, they are all great teams.
"If there's a saving grace to Friday's game, that's it."
Lexington was one of six north central Ohio teams to receive playoff invitations Sunday afternoon. The Minutemen will be joined in the postseason by Ashland, Shelby, Highland, Wynford and Fredericktown.
The Arrows, who are in the playoffs for the second straight season, host Olentangy Liberty in a Division II Region 6 quarterfinal Friday at Community Stadium. Last year, Ashland advanced to the regional championship game before falling to eventual state champ Piqua.
"Going to the playoffs never gets old. It's always exciting," Ashland coach Scott Valentine said. "One of our goals coming into the season was to get back to the playoffs. That is what separates this group of seniors from some of the other groups we've had. This is the first time we've qualified two years in a row."
Like Ashland, Highland is in the playoffs for a second straight year. And like the Arrows, the Scots will host a first-round game when Genoa Area makes the trip to Sparta for Saturday's Division IV, Region 14 quarterfinal.
"It's a great accomplishment, especially since we lost so many great athletes off last year's team," record-setting running back Taylor Harris said. "It's going to be crazy. Our stadium isn't really built to host a playoff game. It's going to be packed."
Shelby is back in the playoffs for the third time in program history and the first time since 1999. The Whippets, who play at Bellefontaine in a Division III, Region 10 quarterfinal Friday, just missed out on the postseason each of the past two years.
"It's a good feeling, especially after the last couple of years," quarterback Scott Baird said. "We haven't played our best football the last couple of weeks, but the playoffs are a new season."
Wynford put the finishing touches on an undefeated regular season Friday, but the Royals will open postseason play at Lima Central Catholic on Friday. Region 18 of Division V is a meat-grinder which includes small-school heavyweights Patrick Henry, Liberty-Benton and Sherwood Fairview.
"The only thing we can control is what we did on Friday nights and we did that this year," Wynford coach Travis Moyer said. "Every game you are going to be playing a quality opponent."
Fredericktown needed a win over Loudonville and some help to secure their second consecutive playoff invitation. The Freddies open postseason play at unbeaten Old Washington Buckeye Trail in a Division V, Region 19 quarterfinal Friday.
"The last couple of weeks have been like playoff games for us because we knew we had to keep winning to get back in," Fredericktown coach Luke Beal said. "Last year, there was a tremendous amount of excitement just to get there. This year, we don't want to be happy just making it."

Marina, this is beautiful, and really yummy! There's nothing better than a freshly picked apples, crisp and juicy. And a family time together is so precious... Lovely photos, I especially love the one with your little cute daughter jumping to reach the apple. And the little miss showing her apple is just so adorable! :)ReplyDelete
Another day I was near an apple tree (unfortunately just one tree), and brought home about a dozen of apples, thinking of pie for the weekend. Well, guess what? It's all gone, we just ate it... No complains, though. Come see my polenta biscotti, please... :)
Oh goodness, the apple bowls are so cute! And the oatmeal sounds delicious! I love baked oatmeal but certainly don't make it often enough. This is going on my Fall to-make list!ReplyDelete
What a fantastic idea for breakfast or brunch. I love the apples of Fall. Sounds like a lovely outing.ReplyDelete
Marina, you are so talented! I adore the oatmeal in the apples! What a lovely day!ReplyDelete
me encantan tanto la receta como las fotos!ReplyDelete
these look amazing! absolutely perfectly fall :)ReplyDelete
Fun pictures of your weekend! I love the presentation of the oatmeal in the apples - perfection, as usual! :)ReplyDelete
MMMM! Wonderful photos ♥ReplyDelete
wow! I love the presentation- almost as much as i love the flavors you got going on in this oatmeal. lovelyReplyDelete
It's so unfortunate that we cannot go apple picking here in Ontario this year. Farmers are telling us that no apple picking this year because we had such a mild winter and there was not enough frost (?) for the apples? An explanation I found quite strange since, I'm sure, apples in California don't need snow or frost. But then again, California's might be of different strains. Anyway, I'll be dreaming of fresh picked apples and baked oatmeal tonight :)ReplyDeleteReplies
Oh no! Maybe you can just come visit us here for apple picking :)Delete
That does seem a strange explanation! As you said, we certainly don't have any frost around here. Must be a different variety.
What a fun fall breakfast...this is such a great idea. Thanks for this.
Marina you're killing me with the adorable ideas and the magazine perfect presentation. Your apple bowls are fantastic, and I'm not surprised that this will be featured on DailyBuzzMoms!ReplyDelete
What a wonderful post. Visually spectacular! The apples look delicious.ReplyDelete
Aww I used to love going to pick apples around Solvang!ReplyDelete
Also- I adore your new blog facelift. Did you do it? It's beautiful!!Replies
Thank you! Yes, I suddenly got the urge to freshen up the blog!Delete
I love the changes you made to your blog. Looks beautifulReplyDelete
Great story and pics, I bet these apples had the whole house smelling amazing!ReplyDelete
Love the baked oatmeal in apples idea as much as the new design! Gorgeous!ReplyDelete
Apple picking, a picnic and wine tasting sounds like the perfect day to me I have to make a trip out there one day!ReplyDelete
as always, my dear, a stunning, beautiful post. thank you!ReplyDelete
I love how that looks! The oatmeal in the apple is beautiful!ReplyDelete
definitely on the to do list! i think i can't get applesauce here - can it be substituted somehow?ReplyDelete
Love baked apples, oatmeal, pumpkins,little bitty horses, little bitty kids and Solvang! Will try this soon when the kids come home for Thanksgiving! Thanks!ReplyDelete

Law Society sets up poll observer teamComment on this story
Johannesburg - A team of 275 attorneys and candidate attorneys has been set up to monitor the May 7 general election, the Law Society of SA (LSSA) said on Thursday.
"They will serve as the eyes and ears of our citizens," co-chairmen Max Boqwana and Ettienne Barnard said in a statement.
"When South Africa was a nascent democracy in 1994, we had the eyes of the world on us. In that first historic election and in the following elections, many international and regional bodies and NGOs sent observers."
As the country's democracy matured, the perception had developed that South Africa's electoral process was free, fair and transparent.
"We believe that to be so. But as the interest of foreign observers and monitors has waned and turned to other jurisdictions, the onus increases on us to ensure that our elections and electoral processes remain sound and beyond question," they said.
"For that reason the LSSA's attorneys and candidate attorneys have volunteered their time to serve as observers on election day."
The LSSA would place trained observers in voting and counting stations across the country, and independent lawyers in the elections results centre.
"They will assess the electoral process with a particular emphasis on compliance with regulations, laws, procedures and codes of conduct," Boqwana and Barnard said.
"They will also evaluate participation of our people and their understanding of the process."
Observers would submit reports and the LSSA would compile and present its observations to the Electoral Commission of SA (IEC) and make these available to the public.
"Through this observer mission we intend to provide support for our electoral commission by supporting and strengthening the integrity of the elections process," Boqwana and Barnard said.
"We echo the IEC in saying that credible elections are an expression of active citizenship and the free expression of the free will of the people."
The LSSA's domestic observer mission would be complemented by an international observer mission from the Southern African Development Community Lawyers' Association.

Emergency NumbersPhone Book (Must be on-campus or have a valid network account)
Prescription for Success
By Carie Braun '92
Chair, CSB/SJU Nursing Department
The health care system has changed remarkably in the past 10 years. Hallmarks of today's health care environment include:
· Greater complexity of illness
• Shorter hospitalizations
· Significant use of ever-changing technologies
• Increased cultural diversity
· Focus on achieving optimal health outcomes at the lowest cost.
Further, nursing and other health care services are increasingly delivered in community-based settings such as clinics and homes. These settings are riddled with inherent unpredictability.
Developments in patient monitoring and information technologies (including electronic messaging, medical records, data collection, and reporting systems) require students to demonstrate expertise in interpretation and electronic communication.
The health care professional of the future must enter the arena having had significant learning experiences with simulated and actual patients along with the electronic documentation systems to support care decision-making. Future practitioners must become innovative, creative, culturally competent, flexible, and adaptable in order to respond quickly and effectively to the accelerated rate of change found in health care settings.
Saint Ben's and Saint John's have demonstrated a strong commitment to preparing baccalaureate nurses in the liberal arts tradition. The nursing program graduated its first class 37 years ago. The demand for and popularity of the major with its extreme rigor and emphasis on leadership, professionalism, and quality remains strong still today. Nursing is the fifth largest major at CSB and SJU. We have 91 upper division majors and 158 pre-nursing students awaiting admission to the major.
A key element of our program is simulations, or SIMS, where students interact with high-tech mannequins or live actors. Simulations were designed as effective, complex, and reflective learning situations where observations of the student's performance could be assessed and evaluated prior to a student's placement in an actual clinical setting. SIMS provided students with the ability to better understand, practice, and master what may occur in a real patient interaction.
Our knowledge of how to promote effective learning in the simulation laboratory has exponentially outgrown our current facilities. In short, the existing nursing facilities are at the end of their useful life and in need of significant upgrades to meet modern academic and industry standards and to continue and augment the fine programming that is occurring despite the sub-standard quality of existing spaces.
Rationale for Space and Equipment Needs
The nursing department has been housed on the 4th floor of the Main Building since the early 1970s. Since then, one remodeling project was completed in 1984, but the total learning space remained approximately 1600 square feet since the program's inception.
In addition to classrooms and offices, our current lab space includes:
· two ward-style labs that house 5 to 7 beds
· one small 8x8 patient room that tightly houses a bed, chair, computer station, and a few square feet for nurse movement
· a closet that toggles between storage space and a simulated living room for home health care visits
All four of these spaces provide challenges to effective teaching and learning, including inadequate or nonexistent areas for observation and reflection. In fact, the patient room and home visit spaces require faculty and students to huddle together and peer through cracked-open doorways in order to see and hear what is transpiring in the simulation.
Data from students, potential students, faculty, our community advisory aboard, and nursing literature support the need for a redesigned and re-equipped learning space. A significant survey of enrolled nursing students indicated that the available equipment and spaces hindered learning. Students commented that poor ventilation (overheating and inadequate air movement), small desks and chairs, and poor lighting interfered with concentration and performance. Current equipment was perceived as inadequate and poorly representative of the equipment encountered in clinical settings. Students also indicated concern with lack of compatibility between computer systems and software.
A nursing faculty task group investigated local and national learning laboratory standards. In addition to site visits, they networked with experts across the country via e-mail and at national conferences to more fully understand the current and expanding role of nursing laboratories in baccalaureate nursing programs. The process culminated in hiring a laboratory design consultant who provided invaluable recommendations for change.
The architectural renderings on the following pages offer a glimpse of what could be incorporated into a renovation of the nursing department. The renovation comes with a multimillion dollar price tag.
We invite you to consider taking part in this prescription for future success. Consider a lead gift to name the nursing facility or sponsor SIM labs, community spaces, the resource center, or classrooms.

CSB/SJU nursing graduates have:
demonstrated high NCLEX (the national licensure examination) pass rates that are well above 90%. This is the second highest in Minnesota and far surpasses the national average.
achieved 90-100% job placement within one year of graduation
received consistent, positive regard for clinical competence and leadership from employers
engagement in a curriculum that is fully accredited by the Commission on Collegiate Nursing Education (CCNE, 2007) and approved by the Minnesota Board of Nursing (2009).
completed clinicals at partner sites in South Africa, Mexico, and Ecuador where they are exposed to engaging and challenging low-income and culturally diverse medical practices.

My first intorduction to Omaha Steaks was when, a few years ago, I received as a Christmas present a cooler full of assorted steaks, from rib eyes to filets. So, one evening, we wanted to try a different steakhouse so we decided to try Omaha Steakhouse on Baymeadows.
Atmosphere: Omaha Steakhouse is in the Embassy Suites. I did not know that and was a little hesitant to go in because of the hotel clientele standing outside and generally hotel food is mediocre at best. But, we were hungry. The restaurant is in the lobby and is not enclsed completely. As you enter, to the right is a bar and the dining room is on the left. The place was not very big compared to other steakhouses in town. As you would expect, the interior was dark. The bar was dead and besides us, there were 2 other patrons, and by the end of our meal, a total of 7. I think we were the only locals there. I looked around, and asked where the kitchen was and was told that they shared the kitchen with the hotel...(you see where this is going...)
Menu: Click here to View Menu The menu is your typical steakhouse menu with steaks, seafood, chicken and pork. For starters, we had the calamari. This was the 2nd WORST calamari I've had here in Jax. It was unfortunately tasteless and tough.For my meal, I ordered the 12 oz filet medium and substituted the Mashed Potatoes with green beans (I was politely informed by our waiter that any other substitution would cost me more! Most steakhouses would gladly substitute a side especially if a customer were paying $34 for a steak!) HOWEVER, my steak was PERFECTLY cooked and tasted great, maybe because these steaks are apparently exteremely fresh and not frozen at any point. With my meal, I had a 2nd single malt scotch. Both drinks were so watered down...
My partner ordered the Grilled Combo Plate of Filet and Maryland Crab Cakes with the mashed potatoes. She ordered a mudium-well and it was served slightly overdone but still very tasty. The crabcakes were very good, big crab lumps, with Remoulade. Her entree was overall good, including the mashed potatoes.
So, since our entrees were very good, we decided to have dessert. Tracy got the Obnoxious Chocolate Cake and for me Creme Brulee. The chocolate cake was huge - definately enough for 2 - and quite good. The Creme Brulee, on the other hand, was a disappointment! Creme Brulee is my favorite dessert...usually the creme is topped with sugar and torched. This one was sprinkled, then baked. When I was asked if it was ok, I siad I really didn't like it after 1 bite.
Service: Our waiter Zach, was excellent and very attentive, so I cannot really blame the messenger. He even tried to take off my dessert since I didn't eat it, but to no avail.
Overall, personally, I will eat here again only if I happen to be at the hotel. I'd rather go to other more established steakhouses around town that have a good atmosphere and substitute sides without worring about an additional dollar.
