IDENTITY and CONFIDENCE
By some bizarre coincidence, this past weekend saw the arrival of two new films, Identity and Confidence, that share an almost frightening number of similarities.

The domestic thriller The Glass House is obvious and over-the-top from the word go, and that's what I liked about it. It takes true chutzpah to pull off a movie with visuals this baroque and plotting this convoluted; it might be the most trashily enjoyable work of its kind since 1997's The Devil's Advocate. Like that Al Pacino craptacular, The Glass House has no higher agenda than showing audiences, in horror-flick form, the luridness behind ultra-rich "perfection," and it's so up-front about its limited ambitions, and so earnestly performed by its top-tier cast, that you can easily lean back and enjoy it for the stylish dreck it is. Is it a good movie? Nah. An entertaining one? Hell, yes.

The Brothers, the comedy-drama debut from writer-director Gary Hardwick, is a good-and-bad movie in which the good parts far surpass the bad, and that alone makes it one of the finer movies of the year.
Dealing with the exploits of four long-term pals and their relationships with the women in their lives, the film has an exuberance and wit that helps you glide over its clichés, and it's the rare male-oriented movie that gives its women plenty of breathing room. There's nothing revelatory in either its plotting or its execution – at this early stage, Hardwick is a better writer than director – but it's undeniably enjoyable; those who by nature bypass movies with African-American casts will truly be missing out.
At the start of the film, confirmed bachelor Terry (Shemar Moore) announces his impending wedding, which makes the others in his circle question their own lives and romantic entanglements. Jackson (Morris Chestnut), a successful pediatrician, wants to develop a deeper commitment with his girlfriend, Denise (Gabrielle Union), but is hindered by a revealed secret from her past; Derrick (D.L. Hughley), moderately happy in his own marriage to Sheila (Tamala Jones), can't get past her reluctance to engage in oral sex; lothario Brian (Bill Bellamy), high on booze and a succession of ladyfriends, finds commitment a joke and is (comically) punished for his refusal to grow up. Needless to say, The Brothers is more character-driven than story-driven, and given the strong parade of characters Hardwick has created, that's just fine for this debut feature.
Which is not to say that Hardwick has created original characters. Brian is a particularly weak link, his comic exploits predictable and formulaic, and Bellamy is, in general, more stand-up than actor; you catch him performing throughout the picture and it dulls your interest in him. But many of the film's actors transcend the obviousness of their roles – Hughley gets away with his borderline offensive subplot through sheer charisma – and one of them, Morris Chestnut, does even more that; he anchors the film with an impressive combination of understatement, humor, and sexiness. Chestnut has been a terrific presence in movies like Boys N the Hood and The Best Man, but The Brothers might finally be the one that makes him a star.
Best of all, and most surprising for a film entitled The Brothers, is the strong impact made by the female cast members. Gabrielle Union is enormously appealing – her role in last fall's Bring It On didn't hint at this kind of womanly strength and vulnerability – and we're also treated to the wonderful Marla Gibbs and the especially vibrant Jenifer Lewis. In films of this type, where men are slow to pick up on their own failings but more than ready to find them in others, we're used to seeing a series of putting-men-in-their-place diatribes; The Brothers doesn't shirk from this heady, predictable responsibility, but Hardwick writes some truly hysterical diatribes, and Lewis is a true live wire when delivering them. The movie never really amounts to much, but it actually does say a few things about how people live in this day and age, and does so while remaining spirited and funny. In a movie year that's shaping up to be even worse than the last – Lord help us – The Brothers is welcome relief.
It just figures. You wait patiently for the gorgeous and talented Ashley Judd to get out of her action-stud-muffinette phase (in turkeys like Kiss the Girls, Eye of the Beholder, and the reprehensible Double Jeopardy) and land the lead in a romantic comedy; she finally does, and it winds up being the witless and charmless piece of piffle Someone Like You. If you've never before felt the head-swimming rush of déjà vu, I heartily recommend catching the film; even if you haven't yet seen it, you've seen it. (You probably remember the title, too. With the exception of the Bernard Slade adaptation Romantic Comedy, has there ever been a film of this type with a less inspired moniker?) Not that it matters, but here's the lowdown this time around: Judd plays the talent-booker for a TV talk show who, after one failed relationship too many, comes to the shocking realization that men are pigs. Or rather, she learns after reading a rather dubious-sounding newspaper article that men are bulls. And women are cows. And bulls, you see, never mate with the same cow twice. And that explains why men and women can never successfully cohabitate.
But guess what? (You're ahead of me already, aren't you?) She meets a bull (Hugh Jackman) who's rude and chauvinistic and a user of women, but who's kinda cute, and who might just be perfect for ... oh, who the hell cares? As I've underlined countless times in my reviews of countless goofy romantic comedies: Setup is nothing, chemistry is all. And in Someone Like You, the leads ain't got it. Jackman appears to be trying; he plays his macho-blowhard-with-the-gooey-center well enough (although his dry wit was a lot more fun as Wolverine in X-Men) and gives Judd appropriate smolder. But with crummy lines to deliver and nothing but a flighty dipstick to play, Judd comes across as desperate and graceless; she could be channeling Sandra Bullock in her lesser movies, and God knows that the one we have is enough. Despite how strenuously the script works at making them the ideal couple, the concept never gels, and director Tony Goldwyn, who made a lovely debut with A Walk on the Moon, has nothing fresh to bring to either the material of the performers. Even as pure throwaway entertainment, the movie is a dud.
Among the supporting players, Ellen Barkin and Marisa Tomei are pure stereotype – Barkin all phony TV sleaze and Tomei stuck with second-rate wisecracks and "heart." (Message to Marcia Gay Harden: Congratulations, but beware – look what's happened to Tomei less than a decade after her Best Supporting Actress win.) And as for Greg Kinnear, who plays Someone Like You's token good-guy-who-turns-into-the-bad-guy, give it a rest. You may have perfected the wolf-in-sheep's-clothing grin, but you perfected it about 10 films ago. Nowadays, when you make your first appearance onscreen, we know you're going to be a bastard.

Old School
There are a handful of photos I return to again and again. Sometimes the way shapes align with one another holds my attention. Sometimes it's a shadow or a dusty beam of light. Sometimes a subject's expression simply sparks my imagination.
The black-and-white photo I've been staring at for the past week, taken by City Pages photographer Michael Dvorak on October 2, 2000, at the Dakota Bar & Grill in St. Paul, has all those elements; that's why it's hanging on my office wall. But I'd never been able to articulate what it is about the image that I find so hypnotic. Now I know.
I can hear it.
Jazz pianist Benny Green is the focal point. He's sitting behind a grand piano. But he's not playing. He's turned sideways, shoulders stooped, one arm draped over the instrument. A lock of curly brown hair falls into his watery eyes, which are fixed on some serene distance just beyond guitarist Russell Malone and bassist Ray Brown. The way the photo is composed, only one of Brown's eyes is visible, peeking out from behind Malone at the edge of the frame. But Green's blissed-out expression, like the gig itself, is all about Brown.
"He lays down this pulse that is just like a heartbeat, like life itself; like the sun," Green told me later that night. "Ray has unquestionably enhanced the quality of life on this earth. When you lock in, and the right groove hits you, when you really need it--man, it can make a 180-degree difference in your life."
I still have the notebook I carried with me that evening. It's jammed with press clippings about Brown's career, which spanned nearly six decades and is chronicled on more than 2,000 recordings. The details are overwhelming: His first regular gig in New York City came in 1945, when Dizzy Gillespie hired him to play with Charlie Parker in the pioneering bebop band. He was a longtime member of several renowned groups, including the original Modern Jazz Quartet. He accompanied and was married to Ella Fitzgerald from 1947 to 1953. And, always acting as his own manager, he worked as a successful studio musician, bandleader, and composer. He is one of a handful of artists whose style has influenced bassists in nearly every musical genre.
"He's the closest thing we have to connect us to the past. The music is moving into the next generation," Green, who was 35, told me. "And our challenge is to nurture and develop our own sound and voice. But that means embracing what came before. It means taking the time to listen, I mean really listen, to what guys like Ray have to say."
Brown's appearance at the Dakota that night was a sellout. It was often that way when he came to town. Because his visits had long since become an annual affair, there was a casual, almost familial vibe in the room that resulted in a blistering second set. For Green, who spent much of the Nineties playing in Brown's trio, it was a reunion. And he savored every moment, shaking his head and giggling whenever Brown took the wheel. He would shout "Ray Brown!" in the middle of a tune. Someone in the audience would shout back "Benny Green!" People were slapping at their tables, laughing out loud.
Drenched with soul, or ripped into a rag, standards such as "Bye-Bye Blackbird" were nearly unrecognizable. Lickety-split bop tunes morphed into bluesy, foot-stomping testimonials. In my notebook, I scribbled the following: Brown, sweat-soaked, leans into his bass like a lover. Eyes shut, he smiles as Green pops into a higher gear. "Watch out!" he yells. If B.B. King played jazz bass, this is what it would feel like.
"The beauty of the quarter note, of the beat, is never to be taken casually or lightly," Green told me. "The beat and time is something to be honored and respected. You have players that embrace the time, and some who shy away from it. Ray takes great pleasure and pride in laying down a time that you can't help but move your body to. And when you play, with him three and a half feet from your left ear, man, you have to come with something special."
When it was over, the crowd jumped to its feet, Brown let go a roar of approval, and Green got up from the piano, embraced his mentor, and gave him a kiss.
"I think we are all looking to get to what is honest and what is real," Green explained later. "It seems like if we can get to that, everything else falls into balance. Being around someone who knows what they've been put here to do, who loves who they are, and who enjoys themselves--that's a blessing. You see, Ray knows what it means to really love this music. That's the bond between us. That's what he's all about."
On July 2, 2002, Brown died in his sleep, just a few hours before he was to play at the Jazz Kitchen in Indianapolis. He was 75 years old.

Bill Haslam, Republican governor of Tennessee, recently vetoed a bill that would have made the Bible the official state book. Haslam is a Christian who says his favorite authors are the popular Christian writers Philip Yancey and Eugene Peterson. The governor said the nation's founders "recognized that when the church and state were combined, it was the church that suffered in the long run." Treating the Bible as a cultural artifact trivializes it, he argued. The two Republican sponsors of the bill said they would try to override the veto, which can be done with a mere majority of votes in the two chambers of the state legislature (Los Angeles Times, April 17).

rice, especially wild, can be a nice treat for pet birds
Q: My cockatiel was "helping" me prepare dinner one night and she started to nibble on some uncooked white rice. She really liked it. Whenever I take a bag of rice out of the cupboard, she gets all excited. However, I know at weddings we now throw birdseed instead of rice as I am told that if a bird eats uncooked rice, it will swell up inside the bird and hurt it. I am not sure if I am doing the correct thing by allowing her to eat some every now and then.
A: That story about uncooked rice swelling up inside a bird's body to the point of hurting it is just that — a story. Rice does not expand when swallowed by a bird any more than any other grain a bird may eat. However, since your bird does enjoy the rice so much, I would advise you to buy a bag of all-natural wild rice or brown rice to give her as a treat. It would be more nutritious than polished white rice.
Q: You have said many times how helpful it is to feed the wild birds in our backyards, so why is it not legal to feed the birds in our state parks? There are signs all over our parks prohibiting feeding of the birds or other animals under threat of fine or imprisonment.
A: In our backyards and neighborhoods, where we carefully manicure the lawns and shrubs in order to keep our property values high, there is very little in the way of natural foods to feed birds or other wildlife that live there. This is why a helping hand from us is welcome. In a state park or wildlife preserve, there is plenty of natural cover and food for the animals, so any supplemental feeding from humans is not needed and actually can harm wildlife. When wild animals living in a habitat that has not been disturbed by humans become habituated to accepting handouts from visiting humans, they may lose their ability to function in that habitat in a natural way. So the rule in any natural setting is to not feed the wildlife for their own good and protection.

Sound like small potatoes? Take a peek at the behind-the-scenes video above, featuring a professional cheese strand-puller, a crust nailer and the 148 other hardworking ad folks it takes to make 30 seconds worth of pizza prettiness.
Or so they say. You buying it?

"Keep Manhattan, just give me that countryside!"
Like a line out of the Green Acres theme song, couple Josh Kilmer-Purcell and Brent Ridge packed up their bags in New York City to become farmers in the small town of Sharon Springs in upstate New York.
Their new reality show on Planet Green, The Fabulous Beekman Boys, documents their ascent into farm life - including eighty goats, two pigs, twelve chickens and a sassy llama named Polka Spot.
Josh's new book, The Bucolic Plague: How Two Manhattanites Became Gentlemen Farmers: An Unconventional Memoir, plows through what it really took to restore the 205-year-old farm house - so the Beekman Boys decided to offer up their other favorite farm-related reads.

Acanthosis Nigricans
Velvety Axillary Lesions - Photo Quiz
HAIR-AN Syndrome: A Multisystem Challenge - Article
ABSTRACT: HAIR-AN syndrome is an acronym for an unusual multisystem disorder in women that consists of hyperandrogenism (HA), insulin resistance (IR) and acanthosis nigricans (AN). The precipitating abnormality is thought to be insulin resistance, with a secondary increase in insulin levels and subsequent overproduction of androgens in the ovaries. Long periods of hyperinsulinism and, some suspect, hyperandrogenism can result in the cutaneous manifestation of acanthosis nigricans. Patients are often concerned about the physical manifestations of this disorder, including virilization and acanthosis nigricans, and may be less aware of systemic problems. Physicians should assess women with these problems for an underlying endocrine abnormality. Although a treatment regimen for the HAIR-AN syndrome has not been established, antiandrogen therapy and weight loss are useful.
Common Hyperpigmentation Disorders in Adults: Part II. Melanoma, Seborrheic Keratoses, Acanthosis Nigricans, Melasma, Diabetic Dermopathy, Tinea Versicolor, and Postinflammatory Hyperpigmentation - Article
ABSTRACT: Nevi, or moles, are localized nevocytic tumors. The American Cancer Society's "ABCD" rules are useful for differentiating a benign nevus from malignant melanoma. While acanthosis nigricans may signal an underlying malignancy (e.g., gastrointestinal tumor), it more often is associated with insulin resistance (type 2 diabetes, polycystic ovary syndrome) or obesity. Melasma is a facial hyperpigmentation resulting from the stimulation of melanocytes by endogenous or exogenous estrogen. Treatments for melasma include bleaching agents, laser therapy, and a new medication that combines hydroquinone, tretinoin, and fluocinolone acetonide. Lesions that develop on the shins of patients with diabetic dermopathy often resolve spontaneously; no treatment is effective or recommended. Tinea versicolor responds to treatment with selenium sulfide shampoo and topical or oral antifungal agents. Postinflammatory hyperpigmentation or hypopigmentation can occur in persons of any age after trauma, skin irritation, or dermatoses.

Season recap: Sal Conaboy
For three of Joe Repshis' five seasons as Abington Heights (Pa.) High's football coach, Sal Conaboy has been there to do whatever has been asked of him.
In 2007, Repshis brought the sophomore tight end up to the varsity squad. The following season, with the Comets needing help on the offensive line, Conaboy made the move to guard without any complaints. This fall, the Maryland commitment returned for his senior year as Abington Heights' unquestioned leader on the line.
"With another year under his belt, he had a great deal of confidence and had a great year," Repshis said. "He worked very hard, came back bigger, stronger, faster and he understood offensive line play much better. He had a phenomenal year."
Abington Heights finished the season 11-2, winning conference and district championships before falling in the first round of the Pennsylvania AAA playoffs. Conaboy was named first-team all-conference and first-team all-region, with other honors likely to follow in the coming weeks. While he may have been more potential than production as a junior who just made the switch to offensive line, Conaboy played like a seasoned veteran this year.
"He's very athletic, has very good feet and is very quick," Repshis said. "He can pull and trap very well, he gets to the next level and is very active. He's going to play until that whistle blows."
At 6-5, 255 pounds, Conaboy will likely need to add weight and strength before he's ready to make an impact in college. But depending on what he does between now and his arrival in College Park, Conaboy could be given a chance to work his way into contention for playing time.
"They're looking at him to come in and compete as a freshman, possibly as a guard or center -- the interior part of the line," Repshis said. "It's too early to tell exactly how he'll be able to contribute, but they do want him to come in and compete. And that's all he's looking for. What happens when he steps on campus that first year is yet to be determined. But he will go into the offseason preparing for the opportunity to play."
In the days following the conclusion of Maryland's 2-10 season, speculation about Ralph Friedgen's future played out in the media. One recruiting analyst suggested that Conaboy could be a target of rival recruiters looking to flip any Terps commitments. But according to Repshis, as long as Friedgen and the rest of UM's coaching staff returned, Conaboy was set on the Terps.
"Sal was very adamant about the fact that he and his family made a decision he felt very comfortable with and he made the right decision based on all the facts presented to him," Repshis said. "He didn't really pay much attention to [speculation over Friedgen's status]. Give him credit for being more focused on our team and what we have to do. He didn't want that stuff to be a distraction. ... He didn't pay attention to things being said in the media about there possibly being a [coaching change]. So he's 100 percent committed to Maryland."
When Conaboy made the move to offensive guard two seasons ago, he did it for "the betterment of the team," according to Repshis. Repshis expects his star lineman to make similar sacrifices -- and potentially have similar success -- when he suits up for Maryland.
"He brings size, athleticism, a great work ethic and is very coachable," Repshis said. "He has all the things you need to be a very good football player at the next level. It's been a pleasure to see him have the opportunity to develop. ... I'm very excited to watch him play the next few years at Maryland."

Orioles: Carlos Delgado?
I've been ruminating on Carlos Delgado since it was reported last week that the Orioles will be following his performance in the Puerto Rican Winter League to see if he might be a decent stopgap at first base next season.
My first reaction was pretty dismissive. We're talking about a developing team adding a 37-year-old player who was limited to fewer than 100 at-bats last year because of a hip injury. What kind of message does that send?
Mind you, that was my initial reaction. My second reaction was more along the lines of "Why not?" The guy obviously is getting up there, but he's one year removed from a 38-homer season and -- even though he couldn't get healthy last year -- his ratios were still okay when he was at the plate. If you extrapolate his 112 plate appearances to match his previous season total, he would have hit 24 home runs and had 138 RBI. I'll admit that's not a legitimate way to analyze his statistics, but it is food for thought.
The Orioles need somebody to produce runs and protect the guys in the top third of the order while the organization waits for Brandon Snyder to graduate from the minor leagues. Delgado might be a decent short-term gamble if he shows he's healthy this winter.
What do you think?

Space Programs Outside the United States: All Exploration and Research Efforts, Country by Country
McFarland, 2005 - Science - 325 pages
Most people are familiar with NASA and the Soviet and then Russian space programs, but how many people have heard of the Austrian Space Agency? Space Ireland? SUPARCO of Pakistan? Space exploration and space-related scientific applications, far from being the province of the superpowers, are a worldwide effort and are developing in some seemingly unlikely places. Forty-two countries or groups of countries, besides the United States, have or have had active space programs.
This near-comprehensive (American agencies, well documented elsewhere, are omitted) history of the world's space programs is full of detailed information. The heavily illustrated chapters, arranged alphabetically, describe each country's facilities; launch vehicles, rockets and satellites; major areas of research; and more.

Jefferson Elementary School and the Port Angeles Main Library recently teamed up in creating monthly book club for fourth graders. Twenty six kids (over 60% of the fourth grade) are participating in the optional club. During the month of March, the group read Home of the Brave by Newbery-award winning author Katherine Applegate. Told in free verse, the book is the story of Kek, a Sudanese refugee, and his experience as an immigrant to Minnesota. After discussing the book (and finding Sudan and Minnesota on the globe), students created book poetry, using words on the spines of books. Check out their free-verse, just in time for National Poetry Month!

Shyu to ACC: 'Army leadership has your back'
April 18, 2013
Editor's note: Army Contracting Command public affairs had an opportunity to ask Heidi Shyu, the Army acquisition executive and assistant secretary of the Army for acquisition, logistics and technology, a few questions about Army contracting. She visited ACC and the Expeditionary Contracting Command headquarters at Redstone Arsenal, Ala., on April 4.
ACC: When you think about Army contracting, what is the first thing that comes to mind?
Shyu: The strength of our military and civilian workforce. When I receive a Contracting Enterprise Review, or I see the team during a visit to an installation, and especially when I was at the Joint Contracting Readiness Exercise, I meet and interact with amazing folks. It is great to see men and women, civilian and military working in partnership to provide commanders and their Soldiers what they need.
ACC: If there is anything, what would keep you up at night when thinking about Army contracting?
Shyu: Besides sequestration? The scope of the mission; it is tremendous. Now, I don't just mean the number of contracts that are awarded, that is big, but what is even more impressive is the way it is accomplished. The rules and regulations adjust continuously and there are important goals that must be met, like those with small businesses and important programs to support such as AbilityOne. In light of all the requirements, the men and women in Army contracting accomplish the mission. It is impressive. There is something else, deployed Soldiers and civilians in harm's way. I think about them often.
ACC: If you were advising a new contracting professional 1102 Army civilian, or 51C Soldier, someone with two to three years experience, what would you tell them?
Shyu: I would ask all of our civilians and Soldiers to improve their knowledge on fair and reasonable price determinations and cost and pricing fundamental principals ' whether working negotiated or simplified acquisition procedure contracts. We have faced challenges in this area: Mi-17 Department of Defense Inspector General) report on Should Cost, UH-60 drip pans, to name a couple. We can improve in this area and improvement will be long-lasting with our newer folks on board early.
ACC: Do you have a message for the workforce?
Shyu: I do. The Army appreciates what you do. From the secretary on down, key leaders are aware of your contribution to the Army. Yours is a tough mission. And it will get harder as we approach fiscal year end. I know, across the Army, 33 percent of our contracts are awarded in the fourth quarter. I also know that the chief of staff of the Army is personally involved in the prioritization of workload and the directive to accomplish 80 percent of (operations and maintenance) obligations by July 1. Normally, this occurs on July 31 and, to my knowledge, never has it had this level of support. The Army leadership has your back. We ask that you do everything you can to ensure that the Army gets the best product and services to our Soldiers. Thank you for all that you do.

New from The Associated Press:
SIOUX FALLS, S.D. (AP) – South Dakota Attorney General Marty Jackley says his office is investigating whether three rallies held by Democrats on American Indian reservations broke the law by offering people food in exchange for votes.
"The state has received various complaints about offering of food in exchange for or to induce voting," Jackley told the Argus Leader. "We are treating the matter under our normal procedure of accepting any information, and making further determinations as the facts or evidence may justify."
The state Republican Party asked for an investigation by state and federal officials last week after reports that Democrats were holding "feeds" on three reservations, but Democrats have said no laws were violated. Democrats advertised the feeds as an opportunity for voters to get something to eat, followed by the chance to be transported by volunteers to polling places for early voting.
Jackley and U.S. Attorney Brendan Johnson last week issued a letter reminding the state's Republican and Democratic parties of a 1998 opinion by their predecessors that said state and federal law does not allow anyone to offer anything of value in exchange for voting, but that letter did not make it clear whether Jackley and Johnson think Democrats crossed the line with their events last week.
Jim Sword, the state's attorney for Fall River and Shannon counties, sent the Department of Justice a memo outlining potential voting abuses, including an advertisement that linked a chili feed with the opportunity to vote for Democratic candidates. Shannon County includes a major portion of the Pine Ridge Indian Reservation.
The U.S. attorney said Tuesday that Department of Justice policy forbids officials from discussing the existence or likelihood of an investigation. Johnson said he has talked with Jackley about the issue.
Jim Leach, a Rapid City lawyer representing the Democratic Party, said the party "didn't even come close to crossing the line."
"The practice of providing food in campaign rallies is an old one in South Dakota," Leach said. "Nobody has ever been prosecuted for allegedly crossing the line."
However, South Dakota Republican Chairman Bob Gray said he expects an investigation will show that Democrats broke the law.
"The law is clear on this issue, and they were warned by both the attorney general and the United States attorney, yet they continued their food-for-votes scheme anyway," Gray said.
To bolster their argument, Republicans released two videos of Rep. Stephanie Herseth Sandlin, one of the Democratic officials who participated in the events, speaking last week at the Crow Creek and Lower Brule reservations. In both, she implored voters to support her, and at Crow Creek, she told the attendees that they could cross the street and cast early ballots.
Herseth Sandlin, who is running for re-election, has insisted that there was nothing wrong with the rallies, and she said Republicans are trying to suppress voting on the reservations.
State Rep. Kevin Killer, a Democrat who helped organize a rally on Pine Ridge last week, said non-Natives don't understand Native American culture, where it's customary to host meetings and provide food for people who gather to discuss issues. He said non-Natives are misrepresenting the feeds.
Leach said he sees no difference between what Democrats did last week and what Republicans have done, including Sen. John Thune's pancake feeds in 2004. But Republicans countered that those events were not directly linked with the option to eat and then be transported to the polls to vote.
Democrats never filed complaints against Thune or other Republicans for serving food at campaign rallies because they don't think it's illegal, Leach said. But if Jackley investigates last week's Democratic events, he also should investigate Republicans.
"What Republicans seem to have a problem with is Native Americans getting the same treatment non-Indians have received, most notably with Sen. Thune," Leach said.
"I think any investigation," he added, "is a waste of time and money."

Salty Tart's Michelle Gayer: Chef Chat, part 1
Michelle Gayer of the Salty Tart bakery
Lisa Gulya
Michelle Gayer, owner and head chef at the two-year-old Minneapolis bakery Salty Tart, has been busy the last six months. Last spring she was nominated for a James Beard Foundation Award for Outstanding Pastry Chef. After attending the awards ceremony in May in New York, Gayer came back to a busy summer in Minnesota. In addition to running the bakery, she cooked meringue over an open flame at a farm dinner with Tour de Farm in Plato, Minnesota, and prepared untold pounds of peaches for peaches and cream parfaits at the Salty Tart's state fair booth just a few weeks ago.
We talked with Gayer just as she was catching her breath after the State Fair last week for the first installment of this week's chef chat.
What was your second year having a stand at the fair like? It was a good dry run of what having two restaurants would be like.
We hired a couple of extra people to come in and prep and cut peaches. We just used everyone from here.
So you'll do it again? Every year I say no way. And then the next year comes around and we get all excited. It's fun to be outside for 12 days.
As a chef-owner, do you get any vacation? I'm taking it next week.
Tell me about the James Beard Awards party. There's a pre-chef party the night before [the awards] for all the nominees and anyone in the industry who's in town. That's pretty fun and outrageous--food and drinking, all those sorts of things. The next night, the awards night, whatever restaurant wins, they host a big party. You just show up and they just start pouring.
Eleven Madison Park--they won best chef and something else. You could hear the DJ and the music booming when you got out of the cab. It was standing room only. It was everyone in the industry dancing and partying like I've never seen before. You couldn't even make it to the bar. They ran out of cups. At one point they ran out of alcohol. All I could think of was how are they going to open for lunch tomorrow?
How did you get into cooking? I think I just got lucky. I just knew that I liked to cook and decided to go to culinary school. I knew I needed to do something, and it wasn't going to be going to a four-year state school and getting a liberal arts degree. I went to Kendall College in Chicago.
Who taught you to cook? It would have to be experience, just being in the kitchen.
Why did you move from Chicago to Minneapolis? I got a call from a headhunter to work at the Franklin Street Bakery. It only made sense to open a bakery with someone else's money before trying to do my own.
I had been with Charlie [Trotter] for 10 years, and it was time. I told him, I don't know if there's one more crunchy/creamy small element I can make.
How is running your own bakery different than the jobs you've had working as a pastry chef in a restaurant? I think it's just more responsibility. As a pastry chef, in Chicago I ran a team of five. I have a team of seven here. There's a lot more different kinds of responsibilities.
How did you decide to open your own bakery? I knew I didn't want to work for anyone else anymore. I didn't want to ask for another day off. I wanted to create something for my daughters.
Our chat with Michelle Gayer continues tomorrow.

Well after FINALLY deciding on the name if we have a girl, DH still says he still has a problem that the initials will be BJ.
He is also BJ and did get teased at secondary school.
Name will be Beatrice Elisa J (insert surname) so effectively BEJ but often just her first and last name will be used.
Is it a real problem do you think? Please be honest!!
Thank you
hiya! I love the name but there is a chance that the child would get teased, kids pick up on anything!! Maybe Have Elisha Beatrice??
As a teacher, I know only too well how cruel children can be! I had a rather unfortunate surname and was teased at school.
Sorry, i love the name but i wouldnt use it just because of the initials. kids are VERY cruel and if there is something they can get picked on about someone will.
i knew a boy with the initials BJ and he got the p*ss ripped out of him at school.
Lovely name but i wouldn't use it simply based on the initials. It may be setting her up for a lifetime of jokes..at school..at work...etc etc etc
Thank you for your honest opinions - I have shown DH and he said, "see - told you!" so for once I may have to give in to him!!
Our 2nd choice is Florence Elisa and 3rd is Constance Elisa so will go with one of those instead - thanks again for your input...
Sorry but I think it would be a problem and would steer clear which is a shame because it would be a lovely name. xx
My hubby has the initials BJ (for his hyphenated 1st name) & he actually didn't get any comments about his initials until the last decade or so (but he is in his 30s).
What I find cringeworthy is his family called him BJ when he was little which is all well & good but they still call him it now & our nephew calls him uncle BJ etc. Bloody awful if you ask me.
My initals are ABJ, no one has ever noticed. I usually point it out to people.
I think if you like it go for it :) Who knows what kids are going to be like when she gets to high school....it may never even be known as bj by then.
Good luck

I've had a helluva run of mice in my house lately and have been catching them left and right with the old fashioned traps. I saw several different types of sonic devices that are supposed to keep stuff away from your house. Does anybody have any experience with these things? I like the idea, but don't want to drop $25-50 on something without knowing if it's worth a crap.
I had a little plug-in one at my old house, and it didn't seem to bother them. It wasn't real expensive (maybe $20), so maybe the more expensive ones work better?
What I've heard is that they work at first, but then eventually the mice get used to the sound. I had them before with no conclusive results.

I had botox injected into my masseters for jaw reduction and to stop my clenching and grinding two days ago. I don't see or feel any change yet. Can you tell me when I can expect to notice any changes and what they might be? The doctor said I should probably come back in 9 month's time for more injections but I don't know how much botox he used, he injected at 4 sites on both sides.
I Had Botox in my Masseters 2 Days Ago, when I Can Expect to Notice Any Effect? (photo)
Doctor Answers 13
Timeline for masseter injection
1) botox injection
2) within 2 weeks, you should feel that your muscles can't clench down as hard
3) Over the course of the next many weeks, the masters will slowly shrink and your face will slowly slim. This is due to the muscle atrophying as a result of not working as hard (analogy: if you have your arm in a cast for a few weeks, it will be smaller than the other arm when the cast comes off).
People normally notice reduction in grinding/clenching and less discomfort/tension within the first couple weeks. The changes in facial shape are more gradual.

Muscle thinning in the masseters for teeth clenching may take a while after Botox treatment
Usually Botox injected in the masseter muscles can minimize teeth clenching, not grinding. After the clenching diminishes, the muscle starts to become less hypertrophied, or bulky. Just like a weight lifter who stops working out; the muscles are still going to be bulky for a while. There is a gradual diminishing of girth.
Give the Botox a few more days to take affect for relief and results
Hi and great question! Botox does take a few days (7-14 average) to take affect and it is not concerning yet that you haven't noticed change. Always be confident that you can follow up with your provider after 2 weeks if you aren't noticing relief or affect. Dosage is commonly communicated in our practice for patient education purposes, but it's a benefit to you and your provider to have excellent communication so the appropriate dosage is administered. I also agree that 9 months seems a lengthy distance between appointments as the Botox will commonly wear off 3-4 months following treatment. There are patients who do see longer effects with treatment, but once you get the first concern out of the way- being certain that the Botox is dosed appropriately and you have results you're pleased with- it will also benefit you to assess yourself 3-4 months from now. With repeated treatments of Botox, the muscles do not have the opportunity to gain full strength and go back to "pre-treatment" state. This is true of dynamic muscle activity anywhere Botox is effective. Again, it's too early to worry about the treatment you just received, but don't ever hesitate a follow up to the office 14 days following treatment if you're unsatisfied with the results. Sometimes a few more units are needed and it's best to not overtreat initially. It's also not a good idea to assess too early, or before the 2 week period. I hope this brings confidence in the treatment and helps you to know experiencing little change thus far is very normal.
BOTOX Cosmetic takes a week to work
BOTOX Cosmetic is a great treatment for overactive muscles, but takes an average of 7 days to see an effect. You should notice some weakness in the muscle at that point, although a decrease in muscle size can take several treatments spaced 3 months apart. It is normal not to notice any change at 2 days. If you still don't have the effect you want at 2 weeks, follow up with your doctor so he/she can see how you responded to the treatment, and make any adjustments needed. Best of luck.
Botox for masseter hypertroophy treatment
Masseter hypertrophy treatment with Botox requires multiple treatments before seeing a true effect( flattening of the muscle). Yes, the Botox starts working in one to two weeks, but it may require several treatments over a year's period to see some thinning.
You Will Be Happy With The Botox Injections Into Your Masseter Muscles Next Week
The earliest we see an effect from Botox is about 3 days. It takes 7-14 days to get the full effect. A little bit more patience and you should be able to see a nice result. Your comment about 9 months is a bit unusual in that in most people the Botox effect starts to wear off in about 3 months (although I have had a few patients in whom the Botox lasted for almost 6 months). There does seem to be an advantage to re-injecting the Botox as soon as it starts to wear off. By doing this, the muscle starts to atrophy allowing your doctor to use less Botox in the ensuing injections (saving you money- it's not often you hear that from a cosmetic surgeon). Enjoy your results next week and consider going back for a repeat injection sooner than the 9 months initially recommended.
I Had Botox in my Masseters 2 Days Ago, when I Can Expect to Notice Any Effect?
Depending on the dose, of Botox, used anywhere from several weeks to a couple of months.

Botox for facial contour
Assuming this is your first injection of Botox, you should start feeling the effects within 2 weeks. Without knowing how many units were injected to your masseters, it's difficult to say how much of a reduction you'll see over the course of the next few months. I would check in with your provider when you start to feel like you can clench and grind again, (the Botox is wearing off), then determine how much contouring was achieved and formulate a long-term maintenance plan.

What can climbing Mount Everest teach us about the most effective way to conduct business? You'd be surprised at the parallels.
Dr. Steve Greene, dean of the ORU College of Business, commanded the attention of the room at the June 15 Alumni Connection Luncheon. Before he tackled the mountain, he talked about his students' many achievements this past year:
After sharing some of his dreams and goals for the school -- more students, a stronger entrepreneurial focus, healing the sick (as in sick businesses), starting new works throughout the world, creating an "Entrepreneur Center without Borders" -- Greene launched into a riveting talk about business lessons to be learned from Into Thin Air, the Jon Krakauer book about the May 1996 Mount Everest disaster.
Then there's the "Sunk Cost Effect" where someone has too much invested and "is so goal-oriented, they're only thinking about the finish line.
"What you've invested is not what matters," Greene said. "It's what you're able to produce." Referring back to Everest, he said, "It's difficult to turn someone around on a mountain." Despite the possible dangers, they think they've come too far to turn back.
Overconfidence, he said -- again referring to the Everest disaster -- "can put us in the jaws of defeat." The parallel to marketing is when someone is more focused on the product they want to create and less on the business plan. "When I start hearing 'everybody (wants one),'" Greene said, "I think 'nobody.'"
Greene believes accountability is frequently lacking in the marketing realm. He has years of experience in this field, having developed marketing and advertising strategy for more than 1,000 clients including McDonald's, Stanley Steemer, and Jiffy Lube. He referred to what he calls "spray and pray" -- when companies flood the market with ads and promotions in hopes that customers will respond.
Then there's the "Recency Effect" where companies consult the most recent information available and rely on short-term history. "The half-life of marketing thought," Greene said, "is shortening; it's about three years. The Internet changed everything." Returning to the mountain analogy, he said, "Everest was not benevolent because it was (benevolent) for six years" prior to the disaster. "We can be fooled by hot streaks," like the guide who expected to reach the summit safely. "They don't predict the future."
So what's the "Way Forward for Marketers"?
Alumni and friends left the luncheon with plenty of food for thought, lessons to apply to their business lives, and in some cases, no doubt, an urge to read Into Thin Air.

The Hottest Chicks in Metal: Doris Yeh—the Outtakes!
Brandon Geist | Jan 20, 2009 | Comments 0 | Tags: Hottest Chicks in Hard Rock, Hottest Chicks in Metal
Didn't get enough of this month's Hottest Chick in Metal, Doris Yeh of Taiwanese black-metal juggernaut Chthonic? Neither did we. Which is why we've posted these bonus pics of her, as well as a few more of her grossest stories. Enjoy. And check out Doris' pinup in the current issue of Revolver, on newsstands now.
"The grossest place I've ever stayed while on tour were the backstage dressing rooms at Station 4, Minnesota, which are in the basement. The place is really fucking amazing… It's like a place straight out of the movie Saw!
"The grossest thing that one of my bandmates has done was our keyboard player CJ laid a huge fart in front of me to wake me up in the morning. I was roused by a familiar flavor that smells stinky but a little bit like the pizza everybody ate at catering last night."
"The grossest thing that I've ever done? Scooped my cell phone out of the toilet which hadn't been flushed yet…"

Maybe the president will have somethng Presidential for us at 2:00, I'm not holding my breath.
During my commute this morning I listened to NPR and there was a good interview by Steve Inskeep with former Spkr Hastert. Hastert has been making the rounds and has been talking about how to deal and compromise in a divided government he spoke about his negotiations with Clinton. Inskeep pushed at the point that Boehner wasn't been able to negotiate in 2011 and he walked away. Inskeep then says so why should the President try to negotiate with him.
Hastert responded that regardless of what the Senate thinks funding has to start in the House and that the Speaker is Boehner. To which Inskeep says what if it's impossible to negotiate with Boehner, why should the President do it?. To which Hastert responds, "if he doesn't then he's not doing his job".
Bingo, exactly that is the leadership that we need. The article link is below and it has a 4 minute audio track.
This situation kind of reminds me of Stealers Wheel, by Gerry Raferty; How does that song go crickets to left ...............no its.

UDD leaders met on Tuesday in Nakhon Ratchasima to plan the group's actions to stave off attempts to stage a coup and attempts of treason, as well as to plan its nationwide rally against the PDRC's shutdown of Bangkok. The UDD leaders emphasized that the PDRC's actions were tantamount to treason, thus it would like to call on democracy-minded members of the public to rally in opposition to the PDRC on January 13. The UDD rallies will take place in every province, except in Greater Bangkok and in the South, at 9 am on that day.
UDD leader Natthawut Saikuar told supporters on Tuesday PDRC leader Suthep Thaugsuban was attempting to force a military coup by creating disorder. He also called on Army Commander-in-Chief Prayut Chan-ocha to hold true to his earlier words and not conduct a coup.

CAP Update: July 17, 2012
Pollution Chair Al Denio reports on the Delaware City Refinery Community Advisory Panel (CAP).
July 17, 2012.
Major news! The refinery has called off the new sulfur reduction unit for now. We do not know the real reason but it was suggested that the funding might be a problem, especially with their plans for an IPO. Someone proposed it could be a political decision. We do know that the project is on the back burner at this point. Plans are being made for a Refinery Open House on Saturday, Sept 15 from 9:30am to 2pm. Bus tours of the refinery will be provided but reservations will be needed for that. Publicity for this event will begin in late August.

Advent Simplicity
It's so important to reign all of that in and say "no" to many fantastic ideas and only say "yes" to a few things...things that are easy, light, meaningful and don't create stress for the mama. I was supposed to bring cookies to a swap this evening, but yesterday I realized that the thought of baking 6 dozen cookies was causing much stress in my heart and probably wasn't even wise because I am battling a cold. So I declined and that was that.
We must feel the freedom to not be enslaved to others' or our own crazy expectations of what it should all be like. We need to be flexible and realize that every tradition we love may not work for our family every year. It's okay to let go and only do the things that bring joy and peace and simplicity to our lives. The thought of doing the Jesse Tree this year was giving me a stomach ache. I am not even kidding. My kids didn't love it the past two years and much of it was going over their heads. Then a friend posted a link to the Advent Event and it immediately seemed like the perfect fit for us.
I was amazed though that I felt like I HAD to do the Jesse Tree, and that if we didn't, I was depriving us of a meaningful tradition that focuses on Jesus. I had to get to the place of realizing (again!) that I have GREAT freedom in Christ and that He wasn't upset if I didn't do Advent devotionals! He is just as "pleased" and accepting of me when I bake cookies as when I sing hymns. I bring Him glory as I sit at my sewing machine making cards just as when I read a devotional. All of life is worship...I had been separating the "spiritual" parts of Advent from the "material" parts and feeling torn between the two.
And so I continue to make things. Simply. We read lots of great holiday books. I have a few favorite cookie recipes that I will bake and not try anything new this year. We'll watch holiday movies and light candles and make our own decorations. Slowly. No stressing that the tree HAS to be up by Saturday. Keeping creating materials at-the-ready for whenever we feel the prompt to make. No daily plan of what we are going to do, but a purposeful vision of the atmosphere I want to create.
And I get to do all of this with this little darling by my side. The sweetest gift of 2011, for sure.

Oh, I love this! I too have been feeling stressed that I can't "do it all" this year (not that I ever really can anyway). I love to craft & bake, I want to keep Jesus at the center, but I also have six children (including 3 month old twins). So, I need to be realistic. It's ok to let go. Praise God for the freedom we have in Christ.
How are you fitting homeschooling into your day? Any helpful ideas?
Thanks for this great post. It was a refreshing read.

- Jen said...
Yes, yes, yes! We all need to be reminded that this season should not be about stress, but JOY. Thanks.
Oh, can you post a recipe for the lavendar hand cream, only if it won't add stress :)

Sara: I decided this summer that we would take the month of December off...it's so much fun having our days free for crafty stuff and games!
Jen: here is the hand cream recipe:
It was super simple. I bought my emulsifying wax through a seller on Etsy. It was a lot cheaper than Mountain Rose Herbs :)

This is such a good post for me to read today. I needed it. Thank you!
And- your baby is delicious. :)

Wise words! And I was feeling exactly the same way about the Jesse Tree this year. I will probably start, just a little bit late, next week when my mainly music has finished for the year, but I am sure He would rather I spend my time blessing the wonderful families we get the joy of serving every week with beautifully wrapped Christmas gifts telling his story, than me being a big stressed out grump with a perfect Jesse Tree :P Henry is gorgeous :) xx
- December 2, 2011 at 8:26 PM
Henry is ADORABLE!!! I really needed your words today. With my husband's traveling job, my high risk pregnancy (baby is coming this month), and all the other activities (including several birthdays), I am already overwhelmed. I've never been able to do a Jesse Tree devotional, Advent devtional or anything structured this time of year. We have had some type of crisis each year at this time since we've been married! And yet I feel SOOO guilty. I see the spiritually significant things that others are doing, the beautiful crafts, the special devotions and I feel like my children are so deprived. My heart years for traditions, evenings reading stories, us gathered round crafting, candles lit every night, but it has never happened. I really needed to be reminded that all of life is sacred and to do the things that I can fit in without stress. Your words really blessed me...

Bravo Aimee! It is amazing how we can turn a list of possibilities into "ought to's." I loved your description of reclaiming your freedom for a truly simple Advent.

- Pieces of Sunshine said...
So true Aimee. We are bombarded with so many "visions" of should/could/lovely/perfect but we need the wisdom to choose what is simply of value to our families and have a heart of worship.
- December 2, 2011 at 10:54 PM
- Jessica said...
Aimee this is such a fantastic reminder. I reposted it for my friends... I'm sure I'm not the only Momma who needs to hear it. I can't believe it's only the 3rd and I've already felt the battle of "saying no". Thanks for the encouragement to keep the peace in my home and we celebrate Peace on Earth. God bless.

Oh, when I got to the bottom of the post, I literally laughed out loud with the cuteness of baby Henry. Another handsome, precious K baby!
Also, love your words of wisdom. I so love this season that I want to do everything and for it to be perfect and feel that if it's not, I'm "missing" something..... Here's to truly *being* in each Christmas moment with joy.
- December 4, 2011 at 12:15 AM
- Beth said...
Wise words indeed. It so easy to work hard to focus on Jesus this season that we actually end up stressed, grumpy and doing exactly the opposite. I had hoped to add the Jesse tree to our season this year but just didn't get it together. So, I'm embracing our advent calendar activities (a tradition the kids love) and will try the Jesse tree next year. Maybe.
Thanks for the hand cream lotion. That might make a perfect teacher gift.
Blessings to you!

Well if I had that cute little face looking at me I'd forget all about Christmas! So precious!
A few years ago I made a decision similar to what you're saying here and it was truly one of the wisest decisions of my life. I decided that Christmas would be simple. The year before had been one of those exhausting Decembers when I forgot all about Jesus until Christmas morning. The next year I decided that my Christmases would be simple and Christ-centered from that year forward.
I decided to say "no" more than I said "yes." That means that most years we get invited to a lot more parties than we attend. We usually attend 0-2 and no more. I don't send Christmas cards. I don't even send Christmas letters any more. Most of our friends and family are on facebook and they can see what we're doing throughout the year. The decorating gets done when it gets done and some years it's only a tree and other years it's much more. I don't bake cookies unless it's just something my daughter and I decide to do. We don't have a lot of traditions so I don't feel obligated to do those things.
But I haven't just cut out things, I've also added a few things that have helped simplify Christmas and make it more special.
I created a cookbook in a notebook that has our Thanksgiving recipes on one side and you flip it over and it has our Christmas recipes on the other side. It's a breeze to whip it out for the holiday, choose a few dishes, and be done.
My daughter and I also make it an annual tradition to volunteer at an Operation Christmas Child shoebox processing center several times during the season and to personally make as many shoebox gifts as we can each year. We gather stuff all through the year when it's on clearance or discounted. This helps get us in the right spirit- the spirit of giving.
My son is in his second year of college away from home so it's a big treat when he comes home for the holidays. I clear my calendar and we focus much more on quality family time. We watch cheesy Hallmark movies, put together puzzles, play in snow if we have it, sit by the fire, and just focus on enjoying the time we have together.
Like I said, simplifying Christmas has been one of the greatest gifts I've ever given myself. Glad you're experiencing the freedom too!

I love that picture of Henry!! Puts it all in perspective, doesn't it?Just let go of a LOT this year. Especially with the new baby. :) (I know you know this but just a friendly reminder, that we all need!) You will be able to have that year where you do everything you want. This year is simply just not it. :)

Wow, I was definitely vibing your wise words here! Wishing you many peaceful, prayerful moments doing what your heart moves you to do.

planning 25G-banjo catfish? different types of corys?
i am planning a betta centered 25G tank. when looking up what type of corys i would like i came across the banjo catfish. they said they work great as a community fish even with small fish (i'm also looking at dwarf frogs, tetras, cherry barbs and kuhli loaches-basically small fish types). but i can't seem to find out how big these banjo catfish get not the water parameteres that they need. also, does anyone know how easy or hard they are to find?
i'm also looking into getting corys, but read that there are over 100 different types, 50 of which are commercially sold. which would be good type to look into for a 25G community, betta centered tank? the albino and the julii look like good candidates, but what others are there? and where they are all corys will they group together if i had different types of them?
The get up to 6 inches long.
As for the cories and grouping, I had a mix of them at one time. Julii, Pnada and an albino. The panda would school with the Julii once in a while but the albino would not. Some say they will others say they won't. Is really kinda hit and miss depending on the fishes personality.
Honestly, I'd just go to the store and buy the ones that look the friendliest and most active. They're all cool breeds, and you never know which one the LFS will have in stock. The only thing you might want to be aware of, is which ones tend to breed more often than others, depending on if you want to breed them, or prevent a population explosion.
