DoD Noise Working Group
Noise and Its Effects
To some, the sounds of military activities are accepted for the national safety, security, and freedoms they help support and defend. To others these sounds deprive them of peace and quiet. Noise, or unwanted sound, can disturb routine activities and may be viewed as an annoyance. Displeasure from noise and the degree to which it is an impact is largely subjective, but can be qualified or quantified by policy and regulation. The response of community members to military noise depends on many factors including:
- intensity
- duration
- repetition
- the time of the day
- abruptness of onset or cessation
- fear of personal danger from the noise sources
- the extent people believe that the noise could be controlled
What Causes Military Noise?
Planes, helicopters, ordnance, tanks, ground vehicles, and small arms are just a sample of the standard military equipment that can produce high levels of sound. During military training operations sounds from aircraft flight and ordnance detonations from tank gun firings, artillery use, missile firings, combat engineering demolitions, and air-to-surface bomb drops all have the possibility of being disruptive to daily activity.
DoD Steps to Manage Noise From Training Activities
The military considers its relationship with the surrounding community crucial and has a variety of strategies for noise management. These include:
Operational strategies. Plans are developed that include the avoidance of aircraft flight routes and altitudes in noise-sensitive areas and placing limits on the occurrence of noise producing operations, if possible. In addition, night training activities can be limited to those that are essential for effective training.
Land Use Strategies. The military recommends and supports the implementation of compatible land uses for those areas located in the vicinity of a military installation, range or training area. For instance, adopting the zoning of compatible land uses such as agricultural, forestry or certain recreational activities can function as a buffer between the installation or range and a noise-sensitive community development . The buffer is useful in mitigating community annoyance levels. Likewise, through the securing of easements that benefit conservation efforts, restrict use, or development around an installation or operational range, the military helps to limit future incompatible activities, or growth, that could lead to concerns about military operations.
Community Involvement
Installations consider themselves a member of the community. Working directly with local comprehensive planning efforts, the military takes a pro-active approach to understanding encroachment and community concerns, while at the same time articulating its military mission and operational requirements for installations, ranges, and training areas. Through active participation in community activities, and military sponsored exchanges, installation staffs and community leaders can get to know each other's key players and interests. The dialogue supports good communication and partnering. When necessary, routine meetings may be held to update interested parties on installation activities and notification protocols can be established for significant events.
Working Together to Defend Communities
The core mission of the Department of Defense is employment of the Armed Forces to protect the United States and its interests. Securing the nation depends on realistic training for the U.S. Military. The use of actual weapon systems and detonation of live ordinance, night training, and low-level flight are just a sample of the requirements for representation of real life conditions and effective training. The sound produced from these activities may disrupt civilian communities near military installations, ranges and training areas. Recognizing that the sounds of military operations can affect people's lives, the Department of Defense and its Military Departments are working with local communities to find cooperative solutions to noise concerns.
Members of the Community
The Military Services (Army, Navy, Marines, and Air Force) want to be good neighbors. The military continues to work with civilian partners and to listen to residents' concerns regarding the sounds associated with military training that may be disruptive to their community. Service staffs are available to meet and discuss noise associated with military training. Contact the local Public Affairs Office or the Community Plans and Liaison Officer with any questions or concerns.

Bring out the incredible underwater colors and intricate detail of marine life with the Aqualite Video LED Light. Fish and invertebrates hiding under ledges and holes often receive little ambient sunlight and require additional lighting for underwater videos to come to life. Lighting the foreground with daylight colored Aqualite illumination, while allowing the delicate blues and greens of the open water background to fade into the depths can produce prize winning videos.
The robust design throughout features double o-rings on the front and back rotary seals, anodized machined Aluminum power head and rotary switch, high impact ABS anti-corrosion body and stainless steel thread attachments. The construction of the Aqualite is solid and simple. Performance is peaked by allowing direct cooling of the LED and electronics through the anodized corrosion resistant head and tail switch. The body is molded from ABS to also prevent sea water corrosion. The switching is all mechanical in order to avoid interference with your compass as with magnetic switches.
Burn time is more than enough: 1.3 hour (600 lumens), 2.3 hour (340 lumens), 4.2 hour (220 lumens) or 8.8 hour (115 lumens). Light is Depth Rated to 500' (152.4 meters). The Aqualite is available in two models with different coverage. The Aqualite (90°) has the widest uniform coverage, whereas the Aqualite (20°) has a narrower beam, but more intensity. Use the 90° beam for the ultra-wide fisheye type cameras like the GoPro and the 20° beam for primary light for day or night diving.
The brightness can be stepped up from 100 to 650 lumens in 4 levels (full, 1/2 , 1/3, 1/6) using the rear power dial. The light eLED has a color temperature of 5000° K. The 4 step adjustment in brightness gives you the opportunity to control the brightness of highlights and shadows with studio type lighting. Or, just dial down the power to 115 lumens and it'll go for up to 9 hours as a focusing light. Mounting the Aqualite to your camera rig is easy. UK provides two 1/4 -20 threaded screw holes (1.2"/3.48 cm apart) on the side of the light which allow it to be connected to almost any ball joint or flexible photo arm on the market. The arm makers all have adapters for this type of attachment.
Power is supplied by a lithium ion battery which is charged from any USB power outlet or the included wall adapter. An additional battery is also included, so that one can be on charge while the other is out diving. Also, all batteries eventually wear out. The Aqualite will not require a trip back to the manufacturer for replacement. Those of you who are more experienced in underwater video will appreciate the fact that the Aqualite is so small that you can use two or more lights and still not be over weighted. A pair of Aqualites set at different brightness levels will add additional dimension and beauty to an underwater subject. So if you want to add color and make a big leap in quality for your underwater videos or still photos, the high intensity wide angle Aqualite is a great choice. Video Light comes with an Owner's Manual is covered by a Limited Lifetime Warranty.
The Underwater Kinetics Aqualite Video LED Light is commonly used for Night Diving and more. The Underwater Kinetics Aqualite Video LED Light is most used by customers who consider themselves to be a Advanced among others. The Underwater Kinetics Aqualite Video LED Light is popular because customers like the following qualities of the Underwater Kinetics Aqualite Video LED Light: Compact, High Intensity, Reliable.
This product has a limited lifetime warranty.

Kigoma South legislator David Kafulila has said Prime Minister Mizengo Pinda cannot stop the debate about Dowans in Parliament, saying that the final decision about it rests in the hands of the Speaker, Anne Makinda.
He told journalists yesterday in Dar es Salaam shortly after the opening of a 10-day seminar for MPs that the premier's recent statement ruling out debate on Dowans in the House was wrong.
Kafulila said he had already informed the Speaker's office of his intention to table in the next month's House meeting a private motion on Dowans, and was currently waiting for response.
"I heard that yesterday (Monday) the Prime Minister said it is not possible to take back the issue to Bunge…but according to information I have, the Parliament office is working on my application," said the MP on the sidelines of the meeting.
Meanwhile, Parliament Speaker Anne Makinda said her office could not make any decision for something that is not real because Kafulila has only submitted a letter of intention, not the private motion itself.
"Kafulila is supposed to write a private motion to be tabled and we will discuss it before giving any answer of accepting or rejecting it," she insisted, adding that her office won't ignore or block any motion, as claimed by some people.
The MP announced recently that he planned to table in the February House session a private motion to hold the government accountable for losses in the energy sector linked to the controversial power generating company, Dowans.

Maine's epidemiologist said the early-arriving influenza is "reaching epidemic proportions" and there's no sign that it has reached its peak.
AUGUSTA, Maine (AP) _ Dr. Stephen Sears said Friday that the vaccine supply is holding up, even though there have been some spot shortages. He said state and private pharmacies appear to have adequate supply for the time being and that it's not too late for people to get a vaccination.
There have been more than 70 reported outbreaks and the disease claimed the life of an otherwise healthy elementary school-aged girl, reported in December.
Sears said virtually all hospitals are near capacity but they're managing to keep a few empty beds. He urges people not to visit hospitals or go to work if they're sick.

The Patrol Investment Group, also known as the PIGS and the Security Guards, are a security firm featured in Grand Theft Auto: Vice City and Grand Theft Auto: Vice City Stories.
While superficially appearing nothing like a criminal organization, GTA Vice City describes members of the PIGS as a "gang", as evidenced by games stats, when the PIGS can be declared the player's "least favorite gang" if the player kills more PIGS members than those from other gangs. The stats also dubbed members of the PIGS "security guards".
The PIGS mainly operate as a legitimate security force out of DBP Security, but are also involved in some illegal protection services. They patrol the North Point Mall area, Escobar International Airport, Leaf Links Country Club, and Starfish Island.
The PIGs appear many times throughout the story of GTA Vice City. They provide protection for Congressman Alex Shrub and the band Love Fist, and have links to the Vice City Triads, providing protection for their illegal counterfeiting operation. At one point the PIGs attempt to move in on Tommy Vercetti's protection rackets in Ocean Beach; Tommy wipes out the guards involved, and destroys their office.
Unlike conventional gangs, PIGs do not congregate or move in groups, but rather patrol the streets separately. PIGs are not ordinarily hostile to Tommy, and will only attack in self-defense; PIG members will also attack the player if they fire a weapon, whether it was aimed at them or not.
PIGs patrolling Starfish Island may attack or be attacked by the Vercetti Gang if they enter the grounds of Tommy's mansion. Likewise, North Point Mall PIGs are frequently in conflict with the Sharks; police act against both parties when gun battles occur. In addition, policemen will pursue and kill PIG members in the same manner as they do with gang members and street criminals, allowing the player to attain "Good Citizen Bonuses" worth $50 each for each punch/kick/attack delivered to a fleeing PIG member. Player must be careful though, as they may attack player with a pistol.
Mission Appearances
Grand Theft Auto Vice City
- "Pig" is a derogatory term for police.
- If player attack and lure a PIG into Army's zone (with Cop outfit), PIG will be attacked and killed by Soldiers. And if a police is in area, the police will chase and attack soldiers (soldiers won't fight back).

The arrival of a Russian aid convoy in Ukraine on Friday without approval from Kiev threatens to further disrupt Ukraine's already-blunted military offensive to regain control of the country's east from pro-Russian separatists by putting overt Russian personnel in the line of fire.
The Kiev government called the advance by some 280 Russian aid trucks into Ukrainian territory a "direct invasion."
The move strengthens the hand of Russian President Vladimir Putin ahead of planned talks early next week with Ukrainian President Petro Poroshenko at the Eurasian Union summit in Minsk, Belarus, where European leaders had hoped to push for a cease-fire.
Sending the convoy could help Putin freeze the conflict in Ukraine where it is, which would serve his objective of disabling the country's economic recovery and blocking its aspirations to join NATO.
Russia continues to deny claims it is sending troops and weapons into Ukraine, even as NATO Secretary General Anders Fogh Rasmussen on Friday accused Russia of "a major escalation" in its military involvement in eastern Ukraine, including the operation of Russian forces inside the country.
NATO: Russian-manned units shelling Ukrainian troops
The convoy forces a choice on Ukraine: Accept a temporary cease-fire to avoid harming a declared Russian humanitarian mission, or risk a frontal Russian invasion, says Damon Wilson, a Ukraine and Russia expert who served under presidents George W. Bush and Bill Clinton and is now at the Atlantic Center, a think tank in Washington.
"The Russians are forcing them to accept a temporary cease-fire ... or to continue with the operation and risk casualties with elements of this convoy with, at minimum, a public relations disaster and at maximum giving Putin a pretext to send in peacekeepers," Wilson said.
On Friday, National Security Council spokesperson Caitlin Hayden said the international community remains "profoundly concerned" about Russia's actions.
"Russia's decision today to send in its vehicles and personnel without the ICRC and without the express permission of the Ukrainian authorities only amplifies international concerns about Russia's true intentions," she said in a statement.
Russia's 2008 war with the Republic of Georgia, as that former Soviet Republic sought NATO membership, began when Russian peacekeepers were killed in Georgian government shelling, which became a "pretext for a frontal Russian invasion on Georgian territory," Wilson said.
Tuesday's talks in Minsk will be about how to halt the fighting, says Phillip Karber, president of the Potomac Foundation who has briefed Congress and the White House on his assessment of the Ukrainian military campaign in east Ukraine.
The Ukrainian military offensive to regain control of the east has surrounded the last remaining separatist strongholds in the cities of Donetsk and Luhansk, with street-to-street fighting this week in Luhansk, but at a high cost, Karber said.
"The Ukrainian offensive has been blunted by a stream of reinforcements coming from Russia to the separatists who are getting heavier equipment than they ever had before," he said.
On Friday, Rasmussen accused Russia of sending "large quantities" of advanced weapons, including tanks, armored personnel carriers and artillery to separatists in eastern Ukraine, adding that NATO has also observed "an alarming buildup of Russian ground and air forces" near Ukraine. Meanwhile, Rear Adm. John Kirby, Pentagon press secretary, called the more than 10,000 Russian troops massed on Ukraine's border "worrisome."
Ukraine's National Security and Defense Council published photos Thursday of captured Ukrainian tanks in the hands of paratroopers of Russia's Pskov Brigade, which Russian military spokesman dismissed as fabrications.
Ukraine has also accused Russia of supplying rebels with sophisticated anti-aircraft missiles — similar to the type that shot down Malaysian Airlines flight 17, killing 298 people — which it says have been used almost daily to shoot down Ukrainian military aircraft.
At least 620 Ukrainian servicemembers have been killed and 2,283 wounded in the fighting as of Aug. 20, according to the Kyiv Post, citing official figures. More than 2,000 people have died in the fighting, according to the United Nations, many of them civilians.
Separatists with Russian assistance "practically wiped out three complete Ukrainian brigades," the Potomac Foundation's Karber said. The Ukrainians "have basically lost control of the border," and the Russians have sent column after armored column of men and material over the past six weeks, Karber said.
Going into the talks, "Poroshenko is under great pressure to compromise," Karber said. "His losses are mounting. His best units are taking losses. The Europeans are calling for a cease-fire."
The USA and European Union have imposed limited sanctions on Russia's banking and gas sector, and have threatened to increase them further if Russia continues to meddle with Ukraine. But how far they're willing to confront Russia "remains to be seen," says Ariel Cohen, a principal at International Market Analysis, an energy and natural resources political risk advisory.
German Chancellor Angela Merkel said this week she's willing to guarantee to Russia that, contrary to Poroshenko's goals, Ukraine will not join NATO. At the same time, German Foreign Minister Frank-Walter Steinmeier said he aims "to bring about a cease-fire in Ukraine and to prevent future victims."
But if a cease-fire does go into effect, that won't limit Russia's involvement in Ukraine, Cohen said, as Russian troops would still be on the ground and separatists fighters would remain active.
"(A cease-fire) would give Russia a constant lever and prevent Ukraine from ever joining NATO," he said.

Brock agrees to help Autumn and Ilta, so Ash and Dawn decide to help Spring and Summer with the cafe in their absence. Brock then bestows all his breeding knowledge to help Autumn and Ilta get along and cooperate. Meanwhile, Team Rocket tries to have their own cafe, but when that fails, they decide to steal Ilta instead.

Maryland State Youth Soccer is dedicated to the development of coaches and players across the state. When one becomes a better coach it translates into better training for the players. The better the training the quicker players develop.
In order to meet the changing needs of today's game, the United States Soccer Federation and US Youth Soccer continue to develop the coaching education programs provided by the state. Maryland State Youth Soccer will continue to follow the lead of these national organizations and provide the coaches in Maryland with the ever-evolving coaching education programs.
Maryland State Youth Soccer offers three levels of courses that include field instruction in the areas of technique, tactics, and fitness. The courses also offer instruction in methodology, team management, and sport psychology.
The Maryland State Youth Soccer educational staff will offer the following courses to enhance the knowledge and coaching experience for coaches who are helping to develop youth soccer players:
D License: The highest state license is the "D" license. The focus of the D license is for coaches working with players 12 years of age and older. The D course is the prerequisite for the National "C" license. For more information about the D license please review the description of the course on our website.
E License: The "E" license is for coaches who are coaching players 12 years of age and older and maybe new to the licensing program or participating in 11 vs. 11 for the first time. The E license is the prerequisite for the D license. This course will introduce the coaching methodology and progression as each coach enhances his/her coaching education. The E course is the required license for coaching travel soccer in the state of Maryland. For more information about the E license please review the description of the course on our website.
Youth Modules: The third level of the state's coaching education program is the Youth Modules. This course was previously known as the F license. As a result of the change in curriculum the course now has three levels: Level 1 focuses on the U6 to U8 age group: Level 2 focuses on the U8 to U10 age group; Level 3 completes the cycle and focuses on U10 to U12. For more information on these levels please review the descriptions of the course on our website.
From time to time during the summer, Maryland State Youth Soccer will offer either the National Youth License or the National C license. Please continue to check the educational section of the website for updates and future courses. For more information about each of the courses please review the course descriptions on USSF or United States Youth Soccer's website.

A technique developed by Hashirama Senju, founder of Konohagakure, the user forces trees to grow on any surface, easily creating a dense forest anywhere they choose. A small plant can grow into a forest in an instant.[2] By generating chakra, the user manoeuvres it as they see fit for attack and defence; and furthermore, this omnipotent technique even allows them to capture the enemy at the same time. With their tremendous life force, the trees can pierce through earthen walls, and extend their branches at their prey in an instant. Even stating that Konohagakure wouldn't have been established without this technique wouldn't be an exaggeration.
- In Japanese, "sea of trees" (樹海, jukai) is an idiom referring to a large expanse of dense woodland. The First's technique changed the last kanji from sea (海) to world (界), probably to reinforce the greatness of the forest created.
- Hashirama uses this technique in Naruto: Ultimate Ninja 3, Naruto Shippūden: Ultimate Ninja 4, Naruto Shippūden: Ultimate Ninja 5 and Naruto Shippūden: Ultimate Ninja Storm Generations. Here after trapping the opponent and then clasping his hands together, he causes the technique to explode causing damage to his target.
- In Naruto Shippūden: Ultimate Ninja Storm Generations, he uses this technique as his ultimate where, after creating trees to subdue the opponent, he uses Chakra Enhanced Strength to smash his opponent through the trees.

|Craig W. Johnson '68 Head Coach of Heavyweight Crew
|Previous College:
|Syracuse '64
Steve Gladstone, regarded as one of the premier rowing coaches in the United States, was named the new head coach of Yale's heavyweight crew for the 2010-11 season. In his time at the head of the program, the Heavyweight Crew has seen improvement in every season, which resulted in Gladstone earning a 2015 USRowing Medal.
In the 2014-15 season, the varsity saw its best finishes in nearly a decade, taking the Eastern Sprints and beating Harvard at the 150th Yale-Harvard Regatta. The varsity went on to defeat national champion Washington in the final of the Ladies' Challenge Plate at the Henley Royal Regatta.
"I could not be more pleased to be coaching the heavyweight men at Yale," Gladstone said. "To be a part of Yale's storied rowing tradition is indeed an honor."
Gladstone led the University of California men's crew program to six IRA championships during two coaching stints with the Golden Bears and also served as the director of rowing operations at Brown where he won four Eastern Sprints titles. Most recently he was a director at the California Rowing Club, helping develop post-graduate oarsmen for the U.S. National Team.
Gladstone's 11 IRA championships tie him with Charles "Pop" Courtney of Cornell (1901-15) for the most varsity eight titles in the history of collegiate rowing. In all, Gladstone's Cal crews medaled at the IRA regatta 11 times in his 12 seasons since 1997 - five gold and six bronze – an unprecedented achievement in the 113-year history of the championship. Over that same period, he directed Cal to seven of 12 Pac-10 championships.
"We are thrilled to have this legendary coach join the Yale staff and return to a campus community, where he does his best work," Yale Director of Athletics Tom Beckett said. "His expertise and experience will benefit everyone involved with Yale rowing."
During his first term at Cal from 1973-80, Gladstone guided the Bears to three undefeated dual-race seasons, an IRA title in 1976 and a Pac-10 championship in 1979.
As the director of rowing operations at Brown from 1981-94, Gladstone's crew triumphed four times at the Eastern Sprints, five times at the IRA regatta and twice at the National Collegiate Rowing Championships.
He returned to Cal in 1997, taking over a program that finished as high as third at IRAs just once since his 1980 departure. The Bears saw immediate success, capturing a bronze medal at the national regatta in 1997 and running off a string of four consecutive championships from 1999-2002.
From 2001-04, Gladstone added the director of athletics role to his duties at Cal, overseeing a department that placed ninth in the Directors' Cup for overall excellence in 2003 and 2004 and won five national team championships.
Gladstone began his coaching career in 1966 as freshman coach at Princeton for three years. He then took over as varsity lightweight coach at Harvard, leading the Crimson to four straight undefeated seasons, four titles at the Eastern Sprints and victories in the 1971 Thames Challenge Cup and Wyfold Challenge Cup at the Henley Royal Regatta in England. During his tenure at Harvard, he served as the U.S. National team coach (1969 and 1973) and was a selector for the 1972 U.S. Olympic team.
A 1964 Syracuse graduate, Gladstone has served on the Board of Directors of the National Association of Amateur Oarsmen and has also been a member of the Men's Olympic Rowing Committee. In 1984, he served as ABC's analyst for rowing events at the Los Angeles Olympics. He worked in the same capacity for NBC at the Seoul Olympic Games in 1988.

Guess Who Else Isn't On Board With the U.N. Resolution to Decriminalize Homosexuality
Jim Burroway
December 5th, 2008
Mark, at Slapped Upside the Head, has a good take on yesterday's news that the Vatican is opposing a U.N. resolution calling on member states to rescind laws outlawing homosexuality — which in some countries includes the death penalty. We discussed the Vatican's intrinsically disordered logic here. Mark has his own take here.
There are a lot of countries which have already signed on to the declaration, including: Canada, Argentina, Brazil, Chile, Ecuador, Mexico, Uruguay, New Zealand, Norway, Switzerland, Iceland, Andorra, Liechtenstein, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Croatia, Montenegro, Serbia, Ukraine, and the former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia.
Those last three are rather surprising. Also surprising co-sponsors are three African countries: Gabon, Cape Verde and Guinea-Bissau. That's quite an impressive list.
So, who's missing? Well, let's see. Oh look: the United States and Australia.


text: The Watch is a 5 member Italian progressive rock band from Milan. Their music is inspired by classic progressive rock style of the 1970s and in particular by the music of Genesis. Melody and energy are the main aspects of The Watch music and the live dimension is one of the greatest features of the band. The line up of the band has changed several times through the years, in particular since 2007. Simone Rossetti, founder and main composer has been the band's singer since it began. Simone Stucchi has produced all The Watch records (except for Timeless) and followed the band on stage as sound engineer until June 2011. Since the end of 2008 the band has the best line up ever, according to Simone Rossetti's words, in fact the band activity is expanding. In January 2010 they embarked on a long tour, visiting Europe, Canada and United States, playing a Genesis tribute live show, which has been repeated in 2011.

"Think twice, 007. It's a long way down."
After taking the spy action into space in the heavily science fiction-themed Moonraker (1979), producer Albert R. Broccoli wanted to bring 007 back down to Earth — both literally and figuratively — in the 12th movie in the franchise, For Your Eyes Only (1981). When a British spy boat carrying the Automatic Targeting Attack Communicator (ATAC) the Royal Navy uses to co-ordinate their fleet of Polaris nuclear submarines is sunk, MI6's top agent, James Bond (Roger Moore), is called into action to retrieve it from the depths of the Mediterranean Sea. Unbeknownst to Bond, the KGB is also aware that the ship has sunk and they've sent out agents to retrieve the ATAC before Bond can get his hands on it.
Gritty Cold War action in exotic locales with the fate of the world at stake, this is what Bond was made for! Tune in tonight at 8:00pm ET/ 5:00pm PT. We have more 007 movies all month long, see schedule for dates and times.

Master the meatloaf
Meatloaf is such an American classic that you would think there would be a settled, go-to recipe. Not so.
"People just don't understand meatloaf. They really think it's throwing a lot of garbage together," said James Villas, who offers seven recipes for meatloaf in his cookbook "From the Ground Up." "You have to take it seriously. There's a whole philosophy behind meatloaf."
There are many divides in the meatloaf debate: freeform or loaf pan? Beef, pork, veal or poultry? In what combination? Coarse ground or finely ground? Ketchup glaze or not? Gravy or no gravy? Bacon or no bacon? (Well, nobody really debates that last one.)
The most amazing thing about meatloaf may be that it's so forgiving. No matter what choices you make on the meatloaf decision tree, you can end up with an excellent result. My go-to recipe came from Cooking Light magazine: It's a sun-dried tomato and turkey meatloaf (served with a red currant and red wine sauce) that bakes in a loaf pan. It's not particularly crusty, but the taste is excellent, and the recipe makes one for now and another for later.
Over the past few years, meatloaf has made its way out of the diner, where it has long been a staple. There are excellent restaurant versions.
While their meatloaf methods differ, our experts agreed on a few key points.
First, use panko bread crumbs. These Japanese bread crumbs are fluffier and coarser than the sandy version typically used, which can produce a mushy meatloaf.
"Don't substitute Progresso for panko," says chef Jay Pierce of Cary's Lucky 32. "It's not as densely packed."
Second, make your meatloaf a day ahead. It tastes better, and it's easier to slice, which leads to the third tip: For a nice crust, grill or sauté slices of meatloaf.
Here is some more advice from our experts:
Sun-dried Tomato Turkey Meatloaf
Makes 2 meatloaves, 5 servings each.
1/3 cup sun-dried tomatoes (not oil-packed)
3 slices bread
1 medium onion
4 cloves garlic
1 cup grated Parmesan cheese
1/2 cup thinly sliced basil
1/4 cup chopped parsley
2 1/2 pounds ground turkey
2 eggs
1/2 cup red currant jelly
1/4 cup dry red wine
1 teaspoon all-purpose flour
PLACE sun-dried tomatoes in a bowl. Cover with boiling water. Let sit for 5 to 8 minutes.
HEAT oven to 400°. Coat two metal loaf pans with cooking spray.
PLACE bread in food processor and mince until fine. Place bread crumbs in a large bowl and set aside.
MINCE onion and garlic in food processor and add to bread crumbs. Drain tomatoes and slice. Then add tomatoes, cheese, basil, parsley, turkey and eggs to the bread crumb mixture. Mix together using hands.
DIVIDE meatloaf mixture and place in pans. Smooth out the top. To freeze, wrap with plastic wrap, removing as much air as possible and then wrap with heavy-duty foil and freeze. Or bake at 400° for 55 minutes or until the internal temperature is 160°.
COMBINE red currant jelly, wine and flour in small saucepan. Bring to a boil and cook for 5 minutes until jelly melts. Serve with the meatloaf.
Lucky 32's Meat Loaf
Makes 8 servings.
4 tablespoons butter
3/4 cup chopped yellow onion
1/2 cup finely chopped celery with stems and leaves
2 teaspoons minced fresh garlic
1/2 cup diced green bell pepper
1/4 cup chopped green onion
2 eggs
1/2 cup half-and-half
1/2 pound ground pork
1 1/2 pounds ground chuck
1 teaspoon Tabasco
1 tablespoon Worcestershire
1 teaspoon ground mustard
1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1 tablespoon fresh thyme
1 1/2 teaspoons salt or to taste
3/4 teaspoon black pepper or to taste
1 cup panko bread crumbs
12 slices bacon
HEAT oven to 350°.
MELT butter in skillet over medium-high heat and sauté onions until golden. Add celery, garlic and bell pepper and sauté until tender. Spread vegetables out on a cookie sheet to cool and allow some moisture to evaporate.
COMBINE eggs and half-and-half in a large bowl. Mix until combined. Add sautéed vegetables, pork, beef, Tabasco, Worcestershire, mustard, cayenne pepper, thyme, salt and black pepper. Mix well. Lightly work bread crumbs into meat mixture by hand and set aside.
LINE a loaf pan with 12 bacon strips, six on each side, so that the bacon will wrap the meat loaf. Place a strip at the joint where the bottom meets the side of the pan and bring the strip up the side of the pan and allow the excess to fold over the outside of the pan. Continue in this manner, alternating from side to side. When bacon is all laid out, place meat mixture in pan. Fold the bacon strips over the top of the loaf, completely wrapping loaf with bacon.
PLACE meatloaf in oven and bake until thermometer inserted in the center reads 160°.
American Meatloaf Deluxe
If you don't want to eat veal, you can replace it with pork or half pork, half beef. From "From the Ground Up: Hundreds of Amazing Recipes From Around the World for Ground Meats, including Beef, Chicken, Pork Seafood and More," by James Villas (Wiley, 2011). Makes 10 to 12 servings.
5 tablespoons butter, divided (3 and 2)
1/2 pound large mushrooms, stems finely chopped and caps reserved
1 large onion, diced
1/2 medium green pepper, seeded and diced
2 celery ribs, diced
3 garlic cloves, minced
1/2 teaspoon dried thyme, crumbled
1/2 teaspoon dried rosemary, crumbled
1 pound ground beef round or rump
1 pound ground pork
1 pound ground veal
1/2 pound bulk pork sausage
1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
1/2 cup ketchup
3 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
1/2 teaspoon Tabasco sauce
Salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
3 large eggs, beaten
1 cup fresh bread crumbs, soaked in 1/2 cup heavy cream
3 slices bacon
Pimento-stuffed green olives, cut in half
MELT 3 tablespoons butter in medium skillet over moderate heat. Add mushroom stems, stir for about 5 minutes until most of their liquid has evaporated. Add onion, bell pepper, celery, garlic, thyme and rosemary; reduce the heat to low and simmer for about 15 minutes until the vegetables are soft and the liquid has evaporated.
HEAT oven to 350°.
PLACE ground beef, pork, veal and sausage in a large bowl. Add cooked vegetables and mix lightly. Add mustard, ketchup, Worcestershire sauce, Tabasco, salt, pepper, eggs and bread crumbs soaked in heavy cream.
MIX lightly with hands until blended. Shape the mixture into a firm oval loaf and place in a shallow baking dish or gratin dish. Drape the bacon over top, and bake 1 hour in the upper third of the oven. Remove bacon strips and continue baking 15 to 20 minutes longer, depending upon how thick the loaf is and how crusty you want the exterior.
MELT remaining 2 tablespoons butter in a small skillet over moderate heat before meatloaf is removed from the oven. Add the reserved mushroom caps and stir until nicely glazed, about 2 minutes. Transfer the meatloaf to a large, heated platter, arrange olives on top and garnish the edges with mushroom caps.
Savor Café's Meatloaf with Sriracha Barbecue Sauce
Savor Café chef and co-owner Lori Pearson says she makes the meatloaf a day ahead and then heats slices on a gas grill before serving. Makes 2 loaves (3 pounds each), 6 to 8 servings each.
2 tablespoons olive oil or bacon fat
1 green bell pepper, diced
1/2 red bell pepper, diced
1/2 large yellow onion, diced
6 eggs
1/4 cup spicy Dijon mustard
2 tablespoons salt
2 tablespoons black pepper
2 cups panko bread crumbs
5 pounds ground sirloin
Sriracha Barbecue Sauce (recipe follows)
HEAT oven to 350°.
HEAT olive oil or bacon fat in a large skillet over moderate heat. Sauté peppers and onion until tender. Set aside. Let cool.
WHISK together eggs, mustard, salt and pepper in large bowl. Once vegetables are cool, add to eggs. Add bread crumbs. Let sit 10 minutes.
ADD ground beef and lightly knead with hands until thoroughly mixed. Mold meatloaves into rounded ovals in baking dishes. Bake for 50 minutes, rotating dishes in oven after 25 minutes. As meatloaves bake, make Sriracha Barbecue Sauce (recipe below.)
SLICE meatloaf and serve immediately. Or make meatloaf a day ahead, slice and grill to reheat.
Sriracha Barbecue Sauce
1/2 onion, cut into chunks
1/2 red pepper, seeded and cut into chunks
1/2 green pepper, seeded and cut into chunks
1 cup spicy barbecue sauce
1/4 cup ketchup
2 tablespoons Sriracha sauce
PLACE onion and peppers in a food processor and chop until finely diced. Add barbecue sauce, ketchup and Sriracha sauce and whip together until combined.

Wow, I love love love this! It's so colorful and cute. I gave my daughter some cross stitch to do on a flight to Hawaii and she had a blast, but I didn't teach her proper technique. I just let her sew however she wanted to, but I think soon she'll be ready for a proper lesson :-)

What's the difference between cross stitch and embroidery. We did embroidery in our summer camp with 5 & 6 yr olds. Is cross stitch much harder?

I think this project is great for age 8 and up.
If you want to try it with a younger child I recommend using a blunt embroidery needle, yarn, and plastic canvas.
Some people call cross stitch embroidery. When I was teaching we referred to embroidery as the various decorative stitches like chain stitch, running stitch, French knots, etc. used to create designs or pictures. Cross stitch is one of those stitches but you make the whole picture with a series of small "X"s.

Every night, Dale Parachini sits on his balcony in a high-rise overlooking City Park and watches the Prismatic Electric Fountain in Ferril Lake, where 11 geysers dance around a tall central plume.
Just one problem. This summer, the multicolored lights haven't worked right.
"If it doesn't light up, it's not prismatic," he said. "It was very distressing to me."
Turns out, Denver Parks and Recreation has been working on the problem with short-term and long-term solutions that deal with lights and water pressure.
One of the power relays for the colored LED lights had failed, and most of the white incandescent lights were out.
"The lights are in the process of being replaced," Denver Parks and Recreation spokeswoman Angela Casias said. "Some will be done very soon, and some we have to order from a special manufacturer in Germany."
Some lights will be fixed sooner than others, depending on when the German supplies arrive, and the city is still assessing why the power relays are not working, she said.
Commissioned for the 1908 Democratic National Convention, the fountain was unused for nearly a decade, until the DNC returned to Denver in 2008. The original fountain works were replaced by a $3 million computerized fountain that was included in a $28 million overhaul of storm drainage in and around the park that began in 2006.
Larry Kerecman, founder of The Friends of the Electric Fountain, has been hired to assess the problem along with the city's maintenance technicians. He posts frequent updates at Larry's Electric Fountain Blog.
"The horrible water quality in Ferril Lake has taken a toll on the valves in the fountain," he posted Wednesday. "The green gunk — algae — in the water sticks to the valve mechanism and causes them to stick open or closed."
It also clogs the mechanism for the pressure-regulating valve.
"We are working on some water-pressure issues and some valves sticking, mostly to do with algae buildup," Casias said.
Filters on valves are being cleaned, and they are "working on long-term solutions (with) water filtration," Casias said.
Parachini is happy knowing the problem is being addressed.
"I feel they're going in a very good direction," he said. "It tells me that someone is as passionate about this as I am."

You represent us all
I am concerned about the political activity against affordable housing which the city councillors have taken. They seem to have forgotten that their job is to represent the community as a whole, not individual property developers! I hate seeing elected officials corrupted like this.

Earth's atmospheric air
Source: Carla Nunziata via Wikimedia Commons (http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File%3ASky_cloudy.JPG)
The Earth's atmospheric air is a colorless, odorless and tasteless mixture of gases consisting mostly of nitrogen (N2) and oxygen (O2). It is the part of Earth's atmosphere that humans and all other animals breathe in order to obtain the oxygen needed to sustain life.
The Earth's atmosphere not only contains the air we breathe, it also holds clouds of moisture (water vapor) that become the water we drink. Furthermore, it protects us from meteors and harmful solar radiation and warms the Earth's surface by heat retention. In effect, the atmosphere is an envelope that protects all life on Earth.
The air may contain pollutants that originate from a variety of sources such as our industries and our vehicles, and can directly or indirectly affect our health and the natural environment. These effects may be experienced near the sources of air pollution and some air pollutants may be transported long distances by the wind, even across political boundaries.
Composition of the atmospheric air
The adjacent table lists the concentration of fourteen gases present in filtered dry air. Two of the gases, nitrogen and oxygen make up 99.03 percent of the clean, dry air. The other listed gases total to 0.97 percent.
Note the amounts of greenhouse gases that are present: water vapor, carbon dioxide, methane, nitrous oxide, and ozone. Additional gases (not listed in the table) are also present in very minute amounts.
The atmospheric air is rarely, if ever, dry. Water vapor is nearly always present up to about 4% of the total volume. In the desert regions, when dry winds are blowing, the water vapor content will be near zero. This climbs to near three percent on extremely hot/humid days. The upper limit of four percent is for tropical climates.
Unfiltered air contains minute amounts of various types of particulate matter derived from sources such as dust, pollen and spores, sea spray, volcanoes, meteoroids and industrial activities.
Brief history of Earth's atmosphere
Earth was formed 4.54 billion years ago (within an uncertainty of 1%) with a primordial gaseous atmosphere surrounding a very dense, molten core. About 4.4 billion year ago, as the Earth began to cool and form a crust, the primordial atmosphere was stripped away by a combination of heat from that molten crust, periods of intense solar activity, and the solar wind.
As the crust formed, volcanic activity became incessant. The outgassing from the volcanoes replaced the primordial atmosphere with what is referred to as the second atmosphere that most probably consisted of water vapor (steam), nitrogen, methane, ammonia, carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide, hydrogen sulfide, sulfur dioxide, and other gases — a mixture much like that emitted from volcanoes today. The dominant gases of the secondary atmosphere were water vapor, carbon dioxide and nitrogen. There was very little free oxygen (if any) in that secondary atmosphere and it would have been poisonous for almost all modern life forms.
At about 4.0 billion years ago, cooling of the Earth and its atmosphere caused precipitation of the atmospheric water vapor as rainfall and subsequently the development of the Earth's oceans. Most of the atmospheric carbon dioxide was dissolved in the oceans and then precipitated out as solid carbonates. By about 3.5 billion years ago, life emerged in the oceans in the form of single-celled microorganisms (referred to as archaea).
By about 2.7 billion year ago, the archaea were joined by microorganisms called cyanobacteria which were the first organisms to produce free gaseous oxygen. It took a long time for the cyanobacteria to get started but between 2.2 and 2.7 billion years ago, the Earth's atmosphere had been converted from an oxygen-lacking (anoxic) atmosphere to an oxygen-containing (oxic) atmosphere. This is often referred to as the Great Oxidation and it resulted in the mass extinction of any life forms that may have existed during the era of the anoxic atmosphere. Between then and now, the gaseous atmosphere was converted to its modern composition as presented and discussed in the previous section of this article.
The evolution of the Earth's modern oxygen-containing atmosphere (referred to as the third atmosphere) led to the formation of the ozone layer which protects life on earth by blocking the the harmful incoming ultraviolet solar radiation.
Why the daytime sky is usually blue
Light is electromagnetic radiation that travels in waves of vibrating electric and magnetic fields and is a small part of a larger range of vibrating electromagnetic fields called the electromagnetic spectrum. Visible light is electromagnetic radiation visible to the human eye and is only a small part of the electromagnetic spectrum.
Light from the sun looks white, but is actually a combination of many colors. The colors blend continuously into one another. At one end of the spectrum are the red colors which have the highest wavelength and therefore the lowest frequency. At the other end of the spectrum are the blues and violets with the lowest wavelengths and therefore the highest frequency.
As light from the sun travels through Earth's atmosphere, it bumps into a bit of dust or a water droplet or a gas molecule. Dust particles and water droplets are very much larger than the wavelength of visible light. When light bumps into them, it gets reflected and bounced off in a different direction but the reflected light still appears white because it still contains all of the same colors it had before it was reflected.
However, gas molecules are much smaller than the wavelength of visible light. When light bumps into a gas molecule, it behaves differently than it does when it bumps into a dust particle or a water droplet in that some of the colors in the light are actually absorbed by the molecule. Subsequently, the molecule radiates or releases the light in a different direction. The colors in the radiated light are the same colors that were absorbed. The higher frequency colors (blues and violets) are absorbed more often than the lower frequency colors and this phenomena is called Rayleigh scattering. It was named after Lord Rayleigh, an English physicist who first described it in the 1870's.
Thus, the lower frequency (higher wavelength) red, orange and yellow colors in the light from the sun mostly pass right through the atmosphere and are unaffected by the air. The higher frequency (lower wavelength) green, blue and violet colors in the light from the sun are absorbed by the gas molecules in the air and are then scattered all over the sky. That is why we see the daytime sky as being blue colored.
The nitrogen cycle
The nitrogen in the air is also essential for life on Earth. It is incorporated into amino acids and proteins, and is part of the nucleic acids, such as DNA and RNA. In plants, nitrogen is used in chlorophyll which is essential for photosynthesis and further growth. However, the free nitrogen in the atmosphere is mostly unusable by plants. Since nitrogen is inert, it requires considerable energy to remove nitrogen from the air.
The process by which nitrogen in the air is extracted to be useful for living things is called nitrogen fixation which may be the result of natural events, or biological fixation by microbes either alone or in relationship with certain plants or animals, or by industrial activity.
One way nitrogen is fixed is by atmospheric lightning strikes; these have the enormous energy needed to break inert nitrogen molecules into atoms, which combine with oxygen to make nitrogen oxides; these, in turn, can dissolve in rainfall, forming nitrates that fall to the Earth.
A second way, which accounts for most nitrogen fixation, is when symbiotic bacteria having the nitrogenase enzyme combine gaseous nitrogen with hydrogen to produce ammonia (NH3) which, in turn, is further converted by the bacteria into organic compounds. Some nitrogen fixing bacteria, such as Rhizobium, live in the root nodules of legume plants and work to produce ammonia in exchange for carbohydrates.
A third way to fix nitrogen is by an industrial process (see Ammonia production) which uses high pressure and temperature as well as a catalyst to combine atmospheric nitrogen and hydrogen to form ammonia which can be used directly as fertilizer or processed further to yield urea, (NH2)2CO, and ammonium nitrate, NH4NO3, fertilizers. This industrial process enables humans to grow more food than would otherwise be the case, but there is concern that this activity is disturbing the natural cycling of nitrogen.
The atmospheric nitrogen fixed by natural and man-made activities circulates through the atmosphere, down into the soil of the Earth's crust as well as into the lakes, streams, reservoirs and oceans of the Earth from which it is eventually returned to the atmosphere. The nitrogen cycle is an example of a biogeochemical cycle similar to the water cycle. There is speculation that these different cycles may be related to each other, and may influence each other in ways yet unknown; scientists continue to explore how these cycles affect each other.

The Gazette reports ( http://bit.ly/11uBRjW) a court martial panel convicted Jamil Cooks on Saturday of abusive sexual contact. The academy made the announcement Sunday.
The panel acquitted Cooks of forcible sodomy and aggravated sexual assault.
He was charged after a woman said he forced her into sex acts in an academy dorm room in May 2011.
Cooks also was accused late last year of unlawfully entering the dorm rooms of two female cadets. He pleaded guilty to the unlawful entry charges, but contested the sexual assault charges.
The academy junior, a former linebacker on the Air Force football team, had been on pre-trial lockup since December and was sentenced to time served.

Comments On Dec 12, 2010:Installed this exhaust on my 2004 Yamaha Grizzly 660 after a seam on the factory muffler blew apart. Super easy to install. Only improved performance slightly, but the sound is certainly nice. The exhaust looked great at first, but unfortunately it only took a couple of months for the finish to tarnish.

Comments On Nov 18, 2009:I have a 2007 yamaha grizzly 660. was looking for that little bit more power without the noise. the fmf is only 5 desibles louder. my friends ride behind me and said the noise level did not seem louder than stock. i put a fmf stage 1 jet kit in it, a pilot jet 5 sizes bigger and a K&N filter with the aluminum adaptor. the stock filter is horrible. the power gain is noticeable and the engine is snappier. you dont have to change any packing. the only complaint is the lock nut for your header clamp. get one that has no teflon insert. it melts away, then vibrated off. the pipe will slide off and get realy loud. after putting a all metal lock nut it cured the problem. also using red locktite too. i feel the pipe did the job, with its other components that are manditory when putting on a pipe. jetting is important so do it right if you dont know how, pay someone that knows what they are doing.

Comments On Nov 20, 2007:Purchased for 2005 Honda Rancher 400AT. Quality is very good and no service ever required.
Performance is good, but have seen better results with a Mega Max pipe on a buddies Rancher 350. Could be the difference in machines.
Recommend adding a K&N with this pipe. No re-jetting required.
