Chocolate, candy corn top the Halloween candy list

It's that time of year again — the mad rush to the local markets to fill your trick-or-treat stash for eager, dressed-up children. So, what's going to end up in your child's bag this year?
Variety is king of this year's season, says Susan Whiteside, vice president of communications for the National Confectioners Association (NCA).
"In the past five years, brands have come out with packages including all their top candies in one bag," she says. "This gives the trick-or-treaters a choice while keeping it easy on the consumer."
Just in the past two years, club stores like Costco and Sam's Club have started putting fun-size candies of all different brands in one smart package under their generic store label.
"These days, candy givers can get Hershey, Nestle and Mars products all in one bag," says Whiteside. "This was totally new two years ago, and it's taking off."
The No. 1 candy that people are lining up to buy this season is chocolate. The National Confectioners Association says that 52 percent of all candy-givers nationwide give out some form of chocolate on Halloween.
Twanetta Ricks of Gainesville is one of them.
"I usually give out chocolates like Snickers and Three Musketeers because they're wrapped individually, and kids just eat it up," she says.
Target sales leaders say they expect Twix, York Peppermint Patty, Butterfinger and PayDay to be popular choices for their guests this year. If you haven't done your candy shopping yet, you're not alone. Target says half of its Halloween candy stock won't sell until next week.
Despite everyone's love for chocolate, candy corn remains the holiday's biggest seller, according to the National Confectioners Association. They say more than 35 million pounds of the tiny corn-shaped candies will be made this year. Shiva Sinaeian, Owner of Fuzziwig's Candy Shop in the Oaks Mall, says the statistic holds water, at least in her shop.
"We have 400 different candies," she says, "but during Halloween, we sell mostly candy corn."
Whiteside says the seasonal appeal of the small tri-colored candies combined with their now sentimental value keeps the sales up.
While candy corn might be a lasting Halloween tradition, Gainesville residents remember some candies that made a splash, and then sank.
"I used to love Bottle Caps," says local dad Matthew Mena. "Whatever happened to those? We used to play with wax lips as kids, too. They were fun, but you don't see them anymore."
Bottle Caps, by the Willy Wonka brand under the umbrella of Nestle, can still be found in those big Halloween mix-up bags, and wax lips, known now as Wack-O-Wax, still see a surge in popularity every Halloween, according to Tootsie Roll Industries, but sales diminish each year.
Whiteside says branding has a lot to do with it.
"The wax lips, the caramels, they don't have a strong brand name behind them," she says, "and the brand names are what drive the candy market right now."
Novelty candies like the lips are always at risk for being tossed aside for the next new thing, she says.
"Novelty candy comes on and off the shelf," Whiteside says. "Everyone is always waiting for the next new thing. It's about originality not longevity."
The candies of yore may be in scarce quantity this year, but that won't deter parents from bringing their little ones out to shout "Trick or Treat" or letting them eat all their loot.
"My kids can eat whatever they want," says Mena, laughing, "just not too much of it. Halloween only happens once a year."

Independent bottler, the Jewish Single Malt Whisky Society, is re-branding its operations under the new name of Single Cask Nation.
Launched nearly two years ago by Joshua Hatton, Jason Johnstone-Yellin and Seth Klaskin, the society's goal was to launch a whisky company with a Jewish cultural flare that exhibits sensitivity to the dietary needs of Jews but is every bit a classic "whisky society," for the enjoyment of all.
However, the trio also wanted to create an interactive community that inspires participation, affiliation and a common identity: a Nation. As such, the Jewish Whisky Company, LLC, will now operate under the trade name of Single Cask Nation.
The new name also reflects the society's decision to branch out beyond Scotland and bottle world whiskies, some of which will not be malt whiskies at all. It is also hoped the name change will encourage more non-Jewish whisky enthusiasts to join.
The basic "white" level of membership ciosts $180 and comes with a number of benefits, including: a complimentary bottle of Single Cask Nation single cask single malt, 2 Urban Bar tasting glasses, a society T-shirt and a one year subscription to Whisky Advocate Magazine.
More details can be found at www.singlecasknation.com.

Talk about a miracle.
Remember that puppy Wall-E who was found supposed to be dead after receiving euthanasia, but instead found him in the dumpster, alive?
Apparently Wall-E's story repeated itself.
Meet Daniel.
Daniel was a stray dog from Alabama.
When no one came to claim him at the animal shelter, he was scheduled to be euthanized with 18 other unwanted dogs in a gas chamber.
Yes, ladies and gentleman… a GAS chamber. (In case you've forgotten, this is year 2012, not 1012).
But a miracle happened.
Daniel managed to survive the
extermination "humane euthanasia", and was actually rescued by the awesome people at the Eleventh Hour Rescue in New Jersey.
Here's one thing that bogs my mind about the fate of dogs..
On one hand, people are splurging the big bucks on their beloved pets (like the
crazy nice lady who spent over $30,000 to throw a wedding for her dogs and the gentleman who is going to spend over $300,000 to clone his pet)..
On the other hand, some people are starving dogs, throwing dogs out of cars, and even mailing dogs in boxes.
And in the case of Wall-E and Daniel, no one wants them, so we, as society, resort to well.. killing them.
Why can't we as society find something in the middle?
And if you know anyone who's in the market to get a dog, PLEASE…. tell them that there are PLENTY of dogs in shelters (that are healthy, cute, loveable, and awesome) that need homes and that buying dogs from breeders and in stores only makes the pet overpopulation problem WORSE.
Please share this article with your friends and family.
Daniel's story is a happy ending story.. except for the other 18 dogs that did not make it.

Professor, Alumnus Help Elementary Students Build Robots to Help Older Adults
By Michele McDonald
Using a Lego robot to flip flags, fetch a toy dog, or balance on a ramp may seem like kid's stuff, but the science behind it eventually could lead to robots that help older adults.
And some Virginia elementary school students are getting a step up in learning how to program and build a robot as part of the First Lego League competition.
The fourth-, fifth-, and sixth-graders consulted with Mason researcher Andrew Guccione, chair of Mason's Department of Rehabilitation Science, to find out what problems older adults encounter and how robots can help. As part of the competition, the team created a poster detailing geriatric health needs and designed a robot to help older adults stand, fetch items, and do other tasks.
"They really did an incredible job of explaining their background research," Guccione says of the work. "I had to ask myself, 'Can my graduate students do this with such ease?'"
The six-member team won a regional tournament award for best research project presentation last month and an invitation to compete in the state tournament along with 49 other teams from across Virginia and Washington, D.C.
Team members Dylan Bui, Ishan Kalburge, Joy Chung, Parth Raut, and Yullee Moon all attend Willow Springs Elementary School in Fairfax. Hayden Ko goes to Centreville Elementary School. Mason alumnus Kent Pankratz, MBA '00, a consultant for Booz Allen Hamilton, coaches the team with assistant coach Bichquyen Nguyen.
"I thought it would be really cool to make a robot that helps older people," says Chung, a fifth-grader. Her grandparents don't need any help, but she thinks about how robots could make life better for senior citizens."I thought it would be really sad if they couldn't walk or hear or move," Chung says. "I thought it would be great if our robot would help senior citizens."
A fan of Legos, Moon's older brother was on Coach Pankratz's FLL team the past two years, so she decided to give it a try. The fourth-grader plans to build more robots in the future after finding out they're more than a toy.
"When I was researching, I learned that older people don't have fast reactions, and they break their bones," Moon says. "A robot can help."
While the team designed a robot to give the elderly a hand, they compete with a standard robot from Lego Mindstorms. They had to program the robot to complete specific tasks, such as fetching a toy Lego dog, completing a Lego-block quilt, and flipping a flag, all within tight time constraints.
Pankratz borrowed from the World War II adventure movie The Dirty Dozen to help the team prepare for the event. They chant their tasks to rehearse before the competition. Because these kids aren't so dirty, Pankratz laughs and says, "We call them 'The Clean Half-Dozen.'"
Helpful robots could be appearing in the marketplace in the next decade, Guccione says. "A lot of people think that robots have to be humanoid-looking," he says. "That's a little far-fetched."
Guccione discussed the basics of function and movement with the team. One of the biggest challenges for older adults is simply getting out of a chair and not falling back to sitting, he says. The team studied the process of going from sitting to standing, using scientific analysis to develop a solution.
"This is something we go through in our PhD program," Guccione says.
Pankratz, who works with the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency's Defense Sciences Office Revolutionizing Prosthetics Program, knows how quickly advances are being made on the robotic front. Putting the know-how into young minds could yield huge benefits in the future.
In addition to the mentoring from Guccione, the team visited the Johns Hopkins University Applied Physics Laboratory to learn more about robots from a team that built a prosthetic arm system for the Revolutionizing Prosthetics program. They also visited the Center for Medicare and Medicaid Services to learn what it takes to get devices approved for use with patients.
"I would be shocked if one of these kids did not go on to be a scientist," Guccione says. "These kids, no matter what they do, will go on to be successful. The fact that they can think across generations and want to help people through science and technology bodes well for humanity."

Amber Portwood has a thing or two to say to the public from behind bars. In a statement written while serving her five year prison sentence, the mother of 3-year-old Leah with ex Gary Shirley comes clean about getting sober and where she went wrong.
The statement from former MTV Teen Mom star Amber Portwood reads in full:
"Right now I'm trying to figure out what I'm doing with my life. I guess I just got lost. I went to jail because I had an addiction to opiates. You live and you learn. and that's real. It's time for me to stop partying and realize that even though I'm 21, I'm not a normal 21-year-old — I'm a mother. Which means I have to grow up quicker and start acting like a mother.
I miss Leah a lot. She's a little mini-me. I see pictures of her and I think about where I went wrong and how I can fix it so she can be proud of me.
As for Gary, I know that he's a good dad. I hope he finds happiness, even if it's not with me. I know we probably won't get back together. He has too many insecurities when it comes to our relationship but I hope that one day we can have a good relationship between us and Leah.
Right now my No. 1 priority in life is dedicating my life to being sober, to being a sober person. And to show my daughter that people make mistakes but you can always come back. If Leah learns anything from me she should see how becoming a teen mom can change you. How everything is postponed.
I made the show for a reason…some decisions change your whole life. If you don't want to take responsibility and use protection, then don't have sex. One night can change your whole life into a sad story.
I hope people look at my story and say, 'That's not the way I want to go.' I know everybody looks at me as a mean person who cusses and hits people, but that's not me. That's just what I had to go through to grow up and learn.
I want to show everybody that I can do it and I can start living a straight life and getting my family back in order."
That's all fans will hear from MTV reality star Amber Portwood, while the other young parents from Teen Mom are set to take the stage with Dr. Drew on Tuesday for the final reunion.
I get the sense, while reading through what the 21 year old had to say, that she's growing up quite a bit while behind bars. I heard acceptance of responsibility for getting pregnant as a teen in the first place, as well as admission of her drug addiction issues. Commendable.
Sadly, Leah Shirley is far from the only toddler with a drug-addicted parent. Amber Portwood may be the most famous and easiest to hate at the moment, but she's not alone. As always, I wish her the best and hope that she'll be able to find the right path permanently.
What did you think while reading through Amber Portwood's statement from prison?

May 6, 2016
A Sunshine State resort has been transformed into a winter wonderland for the holiday season. Three-dimensional frozen ice caves, slides and sculptures make-up the Kissimmee, Florida attraction.
A south Georgia company supplied the ice that made the sculptures possible. Three different types of ice were used including colored ice, but a glass-like type of ice is what puts Cairo, Georgia on the map.
Visitors to the Gaylord Palms Resort in Orlando can now chill out in the midst of frozen holiday figures and scenes, but the coolest thing about this attraction is that the most important part was made right here in Cairo.
Two million pounds of this ice was shipped over to Kissimmee, Florida, but this is not the type of ice cube you find in you refrigerator. It' called crystal clear ice and it's pretty hard to come by.
"M&M ice is the only company close enough to Kissimmee which is where Gaylord Palms is located that is capable of making the clear ice in the quantities that they need for the display," says David Hildebrandt.
It took 25 days to carve nearly 5,000 blocks of ice made over a two-month period, but these guys are no strangers to this type of work.
"We ship several hundred carving blocks a week to south Florida to go to sea on cruise ships for all the beautiful ice sculptures they have at banquets and buffets," David adds.
Preparing such a hot commodity, or in this case cold to be shipped off, is not so complicated. Chris Fortner says it actually an easy job, but the complex part is the next step.
When it reaches the hands of the sculptors who shape it into a seasonal wonder, the attraction appropriately called "ice" is believed to be the first in North America. It will be on display until January 4.

I have struggled with this during my pregnancy too. My bf told me that for a long time the baby just didn't feel real to him. Which is totally understandable since men don't have the physical connection! I would talk to him about fun things I thought he'd enjoy doing with the baby and we bought the baby a cute giants outfit(his favorite team)so the baby can watch games with him. Then when he could feel our baby move I'd put his hand on my tummy. And I would get him involved in simple things like make a list of black/white/red animals(best for ocular development)and let him pick which one's to get for the nursery. Simple things like that will start to include him. He also went(by his choice)to a new dad's class offered at the hospital. And we did a co-ed baby shower as well. All these things made the baby seem more "ours" than "mine". I will say I still wish at times he tried more, but the baby will be here soon and I'm sure he'll be a great dad! Hope some of these help!posted 05/24/2012 by HereNow26
im 26 weeks pregnant and i had the same problem at first to. when ever i would mention a baby my bf would be all...eh, changing subject... it made me so sad and angry and fusterated that one day i finally just was like 'um whats your problem' and finally he told me that he was scared of us having a miscarrage and he didnt want to get to attached and be dissapointed. Once i was in my second trimester and the doctor said that i have a less than 3% chance of having a miscarrage my boyfriend and i went shopping and looked at things a lot and hes just been super wonderful. try having him go to the appointments with you if he doesnt already or even like drag him along to the store and pick out baby things together. or you can always just be straight forward and be like 'are you ok? i feel like lately you havnt been making an effort or time for us. you know once we have the baby we cant always go out when we want.' and try seeing if that will work. hope this helped! :)posted 05/24/2012 by MyaPetersen

Valdosta, Georgia - July 8, 2011 -
On Thursday, July 7 deputies and investigators from the Lowndes County Sheriff's Office assisted the United States Marshall Service with the service of an arrest warrant for Patrick Paul George at a residence in Valdosta. George was being sought for an Obstruction of Justice warrant issued in the State of Louisiana. Once entry was made into the residence, located at 930-A Rhett Road, the deputies located Patrick George and other illegal items.
An additional search order was obtained for the residence and a thorough search conducted. This effort resulted in the recovery of approximately one {1} gram of cocaine, approximately eight {8} pounds of marijuana and two {2} firearms inside the residence.
Patrick George was transported to the Lowndes County Jail where he is being held pending his arraignment and eventual return to Louisiana. The original Obstruction of Justice warrant was issued by the St. Martin Parrish Sheriff's Office.
Arrested: George, Patrick Paul
141 South Orleans Drive
Lafayette, Louisiana 70503
As this investigation continues additional charges in connection with the marijuana, cocaine and firearms are possible.

When I think of religion, I think _____________________.
And thank you for participating.
Sadly, this only proves how distracted I can be . . .
I didn't think of religion at all. I thought of this song . . .
@ChrisB.: You know what? Works for me.
For oppression, for bigotry, for jihad and crusade and manipulation and power and cruelty...
for joy, for peace, for sharing of sorrows, laying down of burdens, for the strength of two or ten-score hearts joined in compassion and love...
Potential for beauty, alone in the wilderness, a bitter hymn of anger in the air; beauty in the glorious lifting of a hundred voices as one, reaching towards a city in the East...
Religion is, simply put, humanity staring into the Void. What that looks like is up to us.
@Sister Coyote: That's beautiful.
..other people's religions are always more interesting than mine.
...it can inspire us to open our hearts or it can teach us to close our minds. Connected or Disconnected. Together as One or Separate. Love or Judgement.
....of Sister Elanor smacking me with a ruler because I fell asleep during Catechism.
Gus diZerega has a short, succinct post that pretty much explains why monotheism + sacred texts => fanaticism of the sort that resulted in the murders in Norway.
With a few notable exceptions, where race or gender trump the commonality of religion (think the KKK, think Birmingham, think abortion clinics) Christians generally allow a pretty wide variety of beliefs under the tent, and generally Christians don't slaughter other Christians. At least, not in modern times and not in Europe or the USA. But that seems to be changing. If it can happen in Norway, can it happen here, too?

Slavic's Beinek Earns Fulbright Award
Posted: Wednesday, May 1, 2013
BLOOMINGTON, Ind.—Justyna Beinek, Ph.D., assistant professor in the Slavic Languages and Literatures Department and Director of the Polish Language, Literature, and Culture Program at Indiana University, has been awarded a Fulbright Scholar grant for research at the Institute for Literary Studies at the Polish Academy of Sciences in Warsaw, Poland, during the 2013-2014 academic year. The award was announced recently by the U.S. Department of State and the J. William Fulbright Foreign Scholarship Board.
Beinek's research project, titled "Catch Up and Get Ahead: The Idea of the West in Polish and Russian Cultures," focuses on the West, a seemingly axiomatic category that has long lost its geographical meaning and acquired a new mythological and political dimension, particularly under communism.
"The fall of communism in 1989 and the enlargement of the European Union in 2004 engendered new conceptualizations of the West as a cultural category," says Beinek. "The main issues I explore within my book include the relativity of the East-West divide, the cartographic instability of the West when viewed from the 'Eastern' perspective, and the imagery of desire and resentment in discourses of the West."
Beinek is one of approximately 1,100 U.S. faculty and professionals who will travel abroad through the Fulbright U.S. Scholar Program in 2013-2014.
The Fulbright Program is the flagship international educational exchange program sponsored by the U.S. government and is designed to increase mutual understanding between the people of the United States and the people of other countries. The primary source of funding for the Fulbright Program is an annual appropriation made by the U.S. Congress to the U.S. Department of State, Bureau of Educational and Cultural Affairs. Participating governments and host institutions, corporations and foundations in foreign countries and in the U.S. also provide direct and indirect support. Recipients of Fulbright grants are selected on the basis of academic or professional achievement, as well as demonstrated leadership potential in their fields. The program operates in over 155 countries worldwide.
Since its establishment in 1946 under legislation introduced by the late U.S. Senator J. William Fulbright of Arkansas, the Fulbright Program has given approximately 310,000 students, scholars, teachers, artists, and scientists the opportunity to study, teach and conduct research, exchange ideas and contribute to finding solutions to shared international concerns.
Fulbright alumni have achieved distinction in government, science, the arts, business, philanthropy, education, and athletics. Forty-four Fulbright alumni from 12 countries have been awarded the Nobel Prize, and 81 alumni have received Pulitzer Prizes. Prominent Fulbright alumni include: Muhammad Yunus, Founder, Grameen Bank, and 2006 Nobel Peace Prize recipient; Juan Manuel Santos, President of Colombia; Lee Evans, Olympic Gold Medalist; Rita Dove, former U.S. Poet Laureate and 1987 Pulitzer Prize in Poetry recipient; Riccardo Giacconi,
Physicist and 2002 Nobel Laureate; Amar Gopal Bose, Chairman and Founder, Bose Corporation; Renee Fleming, soprano; Jonathan Franzen, Writer; and Daniel Libeskind, Architect.
Fulbright recipients are among more than 40,000 individuals participating in U.S. Department of State exchange programs each year. For more than sixty years, the Bureau of Educational and Cultural Affairs has funded and supported programs that seek to promote mutual understanding and respect between the people of the United States and the people of other countries. The Fulbright U.S. Scholar Program is administered by the Council for International Exchange of Scholars, a division of the Institute of International Education.

The Flyers (5-6-1) are coming off a 4-3 OT win against the Hurricanes (5-4-1) to finish off their four-game homestand (see story).
The Flyers are looking to get back-to-back wins tomorrow in Luke Schenn's return to Toronto (see story).
So with the Flyers off today, here are a few other NHL games to pay attention to.
Blackhawks (9-0-2) at Predators (5-2-4), 8 p.m.
This will be the first meeting of these two Central Division rivals. Chicago is atop the Central, but Nashville is looking to close the gap between the two.
This is no easy feat; Chicago is not only number one in the Central Division but also leads the NHL in wins with nine and in points with 20.
Chicago's Patrick Kane is second in the league in points with 18, but will be facing a tough Nashville defense that leads the league in goals against per game with 1.82.
Devils (7-1-3) at Penguins (8-4-0), 7:30 p.m.
The first time these two teams met, on Feb. 2 it was no contest; Pittsburgh blew out the Devils 5-1.
They then met again Saturday to start a home-and-home series. The Devils came away on top this time with a 3-1 victory.
The Devil's snapped the Penguins' six-game win streak and Pittsburgh is looking to return the favor tonight by snapping New Jersey's four-game win streak with help from Sidney Crosby. Crosby is fourth in the league in points with 17.
Lightning (6-4-0) at Rangers (5-5-0), 7:30 p.m.
The Lightning will look to get back on track when they face the Rangers tonight.
Tampa Bay is coming off a season-low 19 shots on net in their loss to New Jersey on Thursday.
Rangers defenseman Dan Girardi could make his return in tonight's game. Getting Girardi back would help against Tampa Bay's Martin St. Louis who is leading the league in assists with 13.

Anyone else have problems with their in-laws?
I have two children, ages 2 and 6mo. With my 2yo, all of my in-laws were SO involved with everything (my pregnancy, the birth, as well as for their first year). My in-laws called, texted, emailed frequently regarding our first child. My mother-in-law even changed her work schedule to spend one day a week with our child. When we found out we were pregnant again, we saw a drastic change. Every one of them started to distance themselves, never asking about doctor appointments or how things were going. They even quit asking about our first child. I informed my husband how this was affecting my mood and I wouldn't stand for them treating our babies differently. Once our newborn was born, a few of them (not even all of them) showed to see the baby. That was it. We didn't hear from them or see them for over a month. Does anyone else experience the same thing? My mother in law and I do not have a relationship because of this issue, and it puts a strain on my relationship with my husband. HELP

HOLIDAY GIFT GUIDE: For your quirky uncle
Posted By Jill Fehrenbacher On December 10, 2005 @ 5:56 am In Green Holiday Gift Guide | No Comments
JULARP CANDELABRA from IKEA PS – $10 [1]
(Nicki & Kyle)
Yet another item from the IKEA PS line, [2] the Jularp Candelabra takes its cues from the flat-pack mantra that has helped make IKEA what it is today. Similar to some of the high end (and highly elaborate) acrylic versions you may have seen, this simpler form by Ola Whilborg is made from sheet steel, and folds flat for storage. It's tongue-in-cheek appeal is a great way to let someone know how seriously you take them.
$10 at IKEA [1]
BREEZY SINGER from DWR – $18 [3]
Here's a great gift for birdwatchers and nature lovers with a sense of humor. Based on hand-sculpted models by Dr. Tsutomu Suzuki of the University of Tokyo, these freestanding faux songbirds, called the Breezy singers [3], are made even more realistic with modern microchip technology, which produces true-to-life sound and twitching in response to motion and changes in light conditions. The birds? authentic songs come from real recordings from the Cornell Lab of Ornithology, whose mission is to conserve the earth?s biodiversity through research, education and science-based focus on birds.
The sing, they move, they look cute, and they are only $18 from DWR. [3]
(Nicki & Kyle)
Ever have an uncle who just LOVES to tease you? Or make you feel dumb? This clever calendar is the perfect gift for someone who enjoys getting to explain exactly what all of their weird possessions do, or how they work. Disguising the numbers within the negative space of the print, the magnetic cursor highlights their identity once it is scrolled to the appropriate location. Available in red or gray.
?20, available from twentytwentyone [5] (UK)
or $49 from GNR8 [6] (US)
$200 and under
The quirkiest old man I ever knew had three ferrets, a pet iguana, a parrot and a giant zen sand garden with an equally large rake. This is high-maintenance quirk. For those who spend a little less time being wacky, there are terrariums, which we've mentioned previously [8] – a great way to keep an alternate universe close at hand. The Terradome Terrarium [7] lives in an acrylic dome approximately 20″ in diameter and 12″ high. You can keep anything in here: orchids, herbs or cacti. It's a mini landscape for the wildly imaginative science geek in all of us.
$108 from DWR [7]
(Nicki & Kyle)
Just what every individualist needs: a lamp which they can adjust to their own aesthetic tastes. Know any staunch non-conformists? The Bendant lamp by Mioculture [10] is the perfect way to indulge their need to do things their own way. By exploiting the best aspects of mass-production, cookie-cutter manufacturing, Mioculture has ingeniously come up with a lamp that is beautiful, customizable, and yes- affordable too!
$165 at Mioculture [10]
For the fashionable outdoor enthusiast in your life, the Ghost Antler Coat Rack is a minimalist, vegetarian version of the traditional antler trophy. And, it doubles as a coat-rack! This is about as elegant as you can get for multi-tasking, imitation deer-head trophy.
$230 from Velocity Art & Design [11]
If you like the idea of the Ghost Antlers, but are looking for something a little more "interactive", check out Buck [12] – the animated Karaoke-singing wall trophy. This is definitely one of the silliest things I have ever seen, but I know there are a lot of you out there who bought Big Mouth Billy Bass [13] (made by the same company) – so I know there is a market for this. Not only is there the karaoke / entertainment aspect for parties, but you have to admit, "Buck" is pretty cute. And at least no animals were harmed in the process!

FARMERS WILL GET MORE WATER — Early releases from upstream storage will provide Madera farmers with more water during their peak growing season and temporarily stall the drafting of Hensley Lake. This will bring the water available to growers up to an estimated 96 percent of the Class I supply. With the early releases, it will not be necessary to begin drafting water from Hidden Dam until July 3, which will leave the lake full enough for family recreation over the July 4 weekend. Visitation to Hensley Lake has already been down this year due to low water levels. However, Park Manager Ed Armbruster reminded the public that these lakes were built for flood control and irrigation.
AHWAHNEE PROPERTY DISPUTE CONTINUES — The dispute over who will be able to lease a portion of the old Ahwahnee Hills School property continues to plague county supervisors. In May, the board agreed to construct a bid that only the High Country Team Penning Association would be able to meet. However, when the bids were opened, Jack Sherill, who had been running cattle on the property since 1985 submitted a bid that was higher. Sherill says he was told that Supervisor Harry Baker wanted him off the property. Baker is a member of the High Country Team Penning Association. Board Chairman Jess Lopez clouded the stalemate by suggesting that the county reject all bids and sell the property.
CITY WATER PATROL RAISES IRE — The City's "get tough" policy on violations of new water restrictions has been rough for Lori Pisano and Mary Woods, water patrol officers. It is their job to hand out tickets and inform violators that they face fines from $15 to $45. As a result, they have been called "water witches" and have had to endure waving fists, obscene gestures, and foul language. "One man warned me he'd shoot me or anybody else from Public Works if they came by with a ticket," said Pisano. "This city is composed of water addicts, and they are in the denial stage," Woods said. The two officers work a total of 60 hours per week.
SOBER GRADUATION PAID OFF — Sober graduation paid off for a Chowchilla Union High School senior this year. Bobby Nutall won a refurbished 1979 Ford Mustang. He picked up his prize at Silva-Wheeler Ford in Chowchilla from Ronn Dominici, coordinator for the California Highway Patrol co-sponsored event, and Bob Silva and Dick Wheeler, owners of the car dealership on Robertson Blvd., who supplied the vehicle. Dale Thomas was the coordinator for the local Sober Graduation car activity, which saw several businesses providing the refurbishing...

Eastern Mo. man charged with fatally stabbing 2
Saturday, February 15, 2014
JONESBURG, Mo. (AP) — A 23-year-old eastern Missouri man is charged with stabbing two people to death and nearly killing two others in what police say is a domestic dispute.
The St. Louis Post-Dispatch (http://bit.ly/1nCfpQb) reports a man called 911 just before 8 p.m. Friday and said he stabbed his wife and killed several other people at a home south of Jonesburg.
Warren County deputies found a 22-year-old Montgomery City woman and 29-year-old Jonesburg dead from stab wounds. A 27-year-old woman and 8-year-old boy were found alive and flown to an area hospital, where they were in critical condition Saturday.
Shawn M. Kavanagh of Bellflower was charged Saturday with two counts of first-degree murder, domestic assault, assault, armed criminal action and burglary.
He was being held without bond in Warren County jail.

[UPDATE] February 27-28th, 2014 Mardi Gras Conference- Masking the Self: Secrets, Disguise, and Mysteries
full name / name of organization:
Louisiana State University English Graduate Student Association
contact email:
The 24th annual Mardi Gras Conference invites scholars to investigate discourses on secrecy, anonymity, rumor, masking/masquerading, and mysterious places in literature and writing--along with discovering the hidden treasure in the king cake.
Masquerading, secrets, and intrigue feature prominently as themes of the Carnival celebration from Venice to New Orleans. In Venice, elaborate Carnival masks enable revelers to celebrate in disguise, while in New Orleans, the tradition continues with many masked krewes. For these krewes, not only is the identity of their king unknown by the public, the theme of their parade remains a guarded secret until the day of the event, creating an air of mystery and suspense.
By examining the long tradition of Carnival, masques, and masquerading, we can better understand the interplay among masks, identity, and assumed personas. This is important and relevant today as we continue to role-play, apply makeup to our faces, and even "pass," as students, teachers, lovers, stereotypes, radicals, women, men, characters, and sheer possibility.
Please submit an abstract that speaks to one or several of the following themes:
• Carnival/carnivalesque and masquerades
Both scholarly and creative presentations (papers, fiction, roundtable discussions, performances, videos, etc.) are welcomed. For scholarly papers and creative works, please submit an abstract of 250 words along with a working title as an attachment, in addition to your contact information, including name, institutional affiliation, degree level, email address, and phone number.
Maximum presentation time: 20 minutes

Vlerick Business School
In this video, Tommy Van Roye from Vlerick Business School, outlines how he standardised their IT environment to run all of the virtual applications on vSphere 5.5. In the beginning lot of physical machines were still in place so they standardised 99% of all their servers to this platform. Currently they are looking at next steps of virtualization and exploring different types of cloud computing.
Craig Barlow, working in Medi-IT represents hospitals in Central Finland. They have been using VMware products for its reliability, flexibility and ease of use. He shares his personal experience with VMware & ESX dating back to version 2. He discusses about ESX environment running 5.1 and their View 5.2 environment. Their roadmap for the next year and the year after is to move as much of the healthcare servers into the virtualized environment.
Planview, Inc.
Discover how Planview uses vCloud Air Disaster Recovery to provide disaster recovery services to their customers without building, managing, and supporting their own virtual infrastructure in another location.
"With vCloud Air Disaster Recovery, it does not require us to spend capital to build a virtual infrastructure somewhere else. We'll be able to offer our customers significantly better RPO and RTO without any additional costs."
Mellanox Technologies
As a global supplier of server and storage interconnects, Mellanox continuously has a need for real-time responsiveness to its customers. This high-level customer service and ongoing innovation led Mellanox to tremendous growth, and the company's IT staff¬ encountered a crossroad on how to best manage and recover the laptops of its increasingly remote staff¬. The business decided to implement the VMware Horizon Mirage system. VMware Horizon Mirage provided Mellanox Technologies with a Comprehensive, Centralized Management and Recovery Solution.
"Using VMware's Horizon Mirage technology has revolutionised the way our IT department operates. We're able to have a team of just three manage the laptops of over 1000 employees so it's amazingly cost effective. We get fantastic feedback from everyone from end users to our efficient IT staff."
French Fire Department
French Fire Department has been using VMware for past 7 years because of its flexibility and ease of use. Franck Sauve shares his experience working with VMware products to support for their mission critical operations. He explains how Horizon View has helped fire helpline operators to keep their systems working all the time, while, vCenter Operations manager has helped him to plan and provide directions on the budget spent and has simplified IT operations with hardware.
HDFC Bank Limited
HDFC Bank needed to launch hundreds of branches quickly to provide banking services to 40 million new customers from rural and regional India. The financial services company developed a 'Branch in a VM' concept to meet this objective and, between 2008 and 2012, opened more than 1,700 branches. The bank can now provision a new branch in less than 10 days.
"In the past it could take up to a couple of months to setup a new branch. With VMware virtualization, we can do this in under 10 days."
Colt Technology Services
Gideon Wilkins, Director of Strategic Partner Management at Colt Technology Services, explains how they have been using a broad range of VMware solutions, including Horizon Suite and vCloud Suite. The leading technology and services company has improved operations internally, as well as its external offering to customers, with Colt being able to support desktop-as-a-service and virtual data centers for both enterprise partners and the channel.

Rene also outlines the benefits the company has seen since joining the VMware Technical Account Management Program, which has up-skilled the IT department.
Mentor Graphics
Mentor Graphics has been using VMware for past 7-8 years in their software development environment. Paddy Ryan of Mentor Graphics shares his experience working with VMware products where their software development environments are changeable depending on their development cycle. VMware gives him that flexibility because they can deploy machines instantly and only use them for number of weeks and then those resources that are consumed by those virtual machines are returned to the pool and reallocated to other product development groups.
"From my perspective the best thing about VMware product is the speed at which it allows us to deploy virtual machines. We can configure one virtual machine set it up exactly how we want it, create a template out of it and then deploy 20 30 40 machines based on that template in a number of minutes. We find VMware and our engagements with VMware excellent, products are really good and the support people's understandings of those products are really good."
Alain Delaby, IT manager at IBA talks about his 10 years journey of using VMware virtualization and how it has helped him to have a good continuity of service with their main business applications.
"We are always looking what new features we can bring to our business to make it more reliable and easier to manage and that are the main interests. At this point, VMware is still meeting our expectations so we are continuing to work on that."
Housing Finance Bank
In this video, Tirus Mutoru, Head of IT for Housing Finance Bank, outlines how his team have benefited from virtualization and the support from HP and VMware partners. His team has been able to dramatically reduce the time taken to provision servers – from 6 weeks to one hour.
"It was quite interesting because I was using both the Hyper-V and also VMware, but then based on experience on ease of use; me and my team finally settled on VMware."
eWorld Limited
Nuno Fernandes, IT Architect, eWorld Limited discusses how their customers truly appreciate the benefits of vCenter Operations Management, providing a really good bird's eye view about what is happening on the whole datacentre in terms of resources, failures and what if scenario modelling. He also explains how being a VMware and HP partner helped them to grow as an organisation, being known and being very respected partner about integrated solutions in Malta.
Pius X-College, Netherlands and International School & Stedelijk College
In this video, Martin Claassa, Biestien College Netherlands and Jos Wijiman, International School & Stedelijk College, Eindhoven outline how they have been using VMware solutions for past 5 to 6 years to consolidate hardware, making them flexible and scalable when needed.
"5 years ago when we had to decide what type of virtualization software we were going to need, we had a look at Microsoft, which was n't mature enough and Xen from Citrix did not meet our requirements. The only product that gave us everything we needed was VMware."
Stock Exchange of Thailand
The Stock Exchange of Thailand virtualized its testing and development platform to release new online securities trading services to market faster by adopting VMware vCloud Suite. As a result, SET has reduced development time for online services by 80% and doubled concurrent user capacity, helping it improve global competitiveness. Moreover, as a result of virtualization, the organizatoin has decreased data center energy consumption by 20% and data center space consumption by 60%.
Any downtime for our system can cause a major disruption to the market, so we chose a technology that we can trust. The features of the VMware solution, such as the ability to create high availability clusters that are safeguarded by Fault Tolerance, help our operations team to maintain the system and meet our service levels
AIA New Zealand
AIA New Zealand replaced its physical firewalls with VMware vCNS with immediate results; significant CAPEX savings, reduced downtime and an agile disaster recovery solution
"VMware has enabled us to undertake a fundamental transformation in how we operate. At this stage we have really only started the journey and there is a lot more to come. It's very exciting."
Hoka Hoka Bento
Hoka Hoka Bento operates Japanese fast-food restaurants across Java and Bali in Indonesia. The company needed to establish a dynamic, highly available infrastructure to support its planned consolidation of critical business systems. By implementing VMware virtualization, Hoka Hoka Bento established a sound platform to deploy a Microsoft Dynamics enterprise resource planning system in 2014.
"With our systems running in a reliable virtual infrastructure, we can continue to improve our performance and reputation, and look at ways of increasing turnover."
Tata Consultancy Services
The IT Infrastructure Services division of Tata Consultancy Services (TCS) provides Indian businesses access to infrastructure, applications and other resources from the cloud. By using VMware virtualization to power its India Cloud Platform, TCS can reduce customer costs by 30 percent, bring new customers on board in 20 days, and deliver minimum infrastructure availability of 99.9 percent and application availability of 99.5 percent."
"We went with VMware because of the abundance of skill and knowledge about the vendor's virtualization technologies in the marketplace, and the fact no other product was as mature."
Hong Kong Housing Society
The Housing Society has offices throughout the city-state, and when swine flu reached Hong Kong in 2009, the organization realized it needed an alternative location to ensure some employees could still access vital tenancy information and critical services should there be an infectious disease epidemic or natural disaster. The organization virtualized its data center five years ago on VMware vSphere to consolidate its sprawling physical infrastructure and has achieved 94 percent virtualization. All mission critical applications are now virtualized, including its iHousing system for tenancy management, Microsoft Exchange Server, and Oracle JD Edwards financial application. The organization worked with VMware to design and implement a virtual desktop infrastructure solution delivered by VMware Horizon View.
"A virtual desktop solution delivers greater flexibility to our employees because the data follows them rather than tying them to a single location. We had a strong relationship with VMware and existing expertise in the vSphere server virtualization software, and so it made good business sense to virtualize our desktops with VMware."
DaiWa Capital Markets Hong Kong Limited
Daiwa Capital Markets Hong Kong had rapidly expanded its datacenter to host more than 500 physical servers, which was becoming increasingly difficult to manage. The company wanted to ensure high availability of its financial services applications and deliver a disaster recovery solution that would eliminate downtime. After considering solutions from Microsoft and Red Hat, the organization chose to work with VMware partners HP and Systex International to design and implement a virtual infrastructure using VMware vCenter Server 5.1 to provide centralized management for VMware vSphere 5.1 Enterprise Plus and high availability through vSphere vMotion.
"Through VMware we have achieved 80 percent utilization of server resources. This means we can run significantly more server resources without increasing energy consumption."
Cloud on Demand
When cloud vendor and Hybrid Cloud enablement partner, Cloud on Demand, looked for a solution that would pave the way for its business and provide the basis for the cloud and hybrid cloud services it sought to provide customers, the company elected to invest in the VMware SDDC (software-defined data centre) as its technology of choice.
"A huge benefit for us is that we have an immediate addressable market. Using the VMware technologies we have been instantly accepted in the market, without having to now educate and court them. This also extends to the training of our reseller base, who are already comfortable with the VMware technologies,"

Scientists Create New Super-Insulating Smart Roof From Cooking Oil
Posted By Brit Liggett On March 22, 2010 @ 1:31 pm In Architecture,Green Building,Green Materials,Green Roof,Innovation,Recycled Materials | 3 Comments
Scientists just announced [2] that they've found a great new use for used cooking oil [3] — and it doesn't have anything to do with a VW bus [4]. They've figured out how to turn the waste from your favorite greasy foods into a "bio-coating" for roofs that regulates temperature [5] in hot and cold weather. Previously, temperature control roofs only worked to cool buildings — paint your roof white and it doesn't absorb heat. The unique chemical properties of the new coating allow it to reflect light in the summer and then change roles in the winter to retain heat.
The lead scientist on the project, Ben Wen, Ph.D., is the vice-president of United Environment & Energy LLC [7] in Horsehead, New York [8]. The team manipulated used cooking oil [9] into a non-toxic [10], unscented and non-flammable coating that can be created in any color from clear to black.
In addition, the substance can be manipulated so that it is in tune with different climates [11]. The scientists are able to control the polymer so that it changes from reflection to insulation mode at different temperatures. Wen believes the coating could be ready for commercial use in 3 years. So don't grab a deep fryer and coat your shingles just yet — you should be able to get the real thing soon.

Water Changes
I think that my aquarium water changes give me the same sense of achievement as mowing the lawn. Feel good for the tanks and myself...aahhh. Did both today !
Sometimes I think it takes the same amount of time for each.
However the lawn takes me 3 hours to mow and I get a better sense of accomplishment from the fish tank.
water change day makes me think it must be like a breath of fresh air :-D

18,000 custodial parents who receive child support collected by the Department of Revenue were treated to double payments this month. They received two checks.
The private company that handles those accounts says it was a computer problem and they want the duplicates returned.
Rick Karlson with Affiliated Computer Services says, "We notified all the custodial parents of the problem. We've asked them and given them a phone number of where to call if they receive a second check so we can reimburse them for any fees they may have. Obviously, we need them to return the checks."
18,774 duplicates were issued on December 2. The total value was $3.2 million. Karlson says his firm made the error, so they'll be picking up the tab for bounced check fees.
For information, call the Florida Department of Revenue at 877-769-0251.

AURORA — A 16-year-old boy who was swept away Thursday evening when he tried to retrieve a ball out of a rain-swollen creek died Friday at Children's Hospital Colorado.
He and a 13-year-old girl were playing on the banks of West Toll Gate Creek about 7 p.m. near the intersection of East 17th Avenue and Potomac Street in Aurora.
The rushing waters carried the teenager about 75 yards downstream to an "island" formed by a wedge of grass.
When police arrived, after a 911 call, they found the boy's frantic mother in the water. She was pulled out of the creek by the responding officer, Aurora fire Capt. Allen Robnett said.
Aurora Fire Department personnel spotted the 13-year-old girl standing on a dam near the creek. Responders asked her to get away from the water, and she did, Robnett said.
The boy was not breathing when he was pulled from the water. He was given CPR and rushed to a hospital.
There are no fences blocking access to the water across from the boy's home. Farther down the block, there is a chain-link fence between the neighborhood and the creek.
The names of the boy and his family have not been released.
"I saw them out playing near the creek in the rain last night," neighbor Tanya Lake said. "I see them out in the neighborhood playing and chasing their dog all the time."
Lake said she did not know the boy's name. She said his family lives across from her.
"There are usually kids out playing and chasing dogs," Laquita Longino said. "There is no one out today."
Robnett said it is important to stay well clear of the water.
"If you witness anyone go into the water, never attempt to go in after them," he said. "Call 911 and keep an eye on the person so you can give an accurate description to the Fire Department."
The neighborhood is tucked between the University of Colorado Denver Anschutz Medical Campus and Interstate 225. The creek, which acts as a drainage pathway for northern Aurora, is in the middle of the neighborhood. A few blocks north, it merges into Sand Creek in Sand Creek Park.
"It may be very pleasant weather, but the creek is extremely high and fast," Robnett said. "The storm doesn't have to be anywhere near you to raise the level of the creek."
