Last week, "Jersey Shore" star DJ Pauly D shared some heated words with deadmau5 over the nature of his own art.
It all started when Pauly asked his Twitter followers if they liked his brand-new "Night of My Life" video . deadmau5 didn't and stated his opinion about it on his own Twitter feed, bashing the clip that features Pauly in the club spinning and greeting fans behind the scenes. From there, the twosome went at it, with Pauly at one point even joking, "Being Hated On By deadmau5#Priceless."
Even in the aftermath of the headline-grabbing back-and-forth, the tanned DJ managed to have a good laugh about the beef with mau5. And, when he chatted with MTV News about the quarrel, he only had kind words for his fellow dance music star. You see, at the end of the day, Pauly says, it's better to be hated by deadmau5 than not noticed by him at all.
"Nah, he's cool. I'm a fan," he told MTV News at the Bamboozle festival in New Jersey on Saturday, just one day after the "Jersey Shore" star exchanged words with mau5. "He's talented and I'm actually flattered he came at me like he did."
Regardless of whether or not the EDM producer thinks the MTV star's video "looked like it cost about $150 to make" and that there's "nothing really creative about it," Pauly can't believe he took out that much time to watch it and form any sort of opinion about it. "I'm actually flattered he even watched my video," he said. "So I got to be funny about it. I'm not mad at all. I thought it was fun."
In the end, perhaps it's Pauly who's having the last laugh. He later joked, "I don't want to say, but I will: I'm beating him [on iTunes]."

The 2011 Import and Export Market for Leather Apparel and Clothing Accessories in Finland
- June 2010
- Region: Finland
- 50 pages
- ICON Group International
On the demand side, exporters and strategic planners focusing on leather apparel and clothing accessories in Finland face a number of questions. Which countries are supplying leather apparel and clothing accessories to Finland? How important is Finland compared to others in terms of the entire global and regional market? How much do the imports of leather apparel and clothing accessories vary from one country of origin to another in Finland? On the supply side, Finland also exports leather apparel and clothing accessories. Which countries receive the most exports from Finland? How are these exports concentrated across buyers? What is the value of these exports and which countries are the largest buyers?
This report was created for strategic planners, international marketing executives and import/export managers who are concerned with the market for leather apparel and clothing accessories in Finland. With the globalization of this market, managers can no longer be contented with a local view. Nor can managers be contented with out-of-date statistics which appear several years after the fact. I have developed a methodology, based on macroeconomic and trade models, to estimate the market for leather apparel and clothing accessories for those countries serving Finland via exports, or supplying from Finland via imports. It does so for the current year based on a variety of key historical indicators and econometric models.
In what follows, Chapter 2 begins by summarizing where Finland fits into the world market for imported and exported leather apparel and clothing accessories. The total level of imports and exports on a worldwide basis, and those for Finland in particular, is estimated using a model which aggregates across over 150 key country markets and projects these to the current year. From there, each country represents a percent of the world market. This market is served from a number of competitive countries of origin. Based on both demand- and supply-side dynamics, market shares by country of origin are then calculated across each country market destination. These shares lead to a volume of import and export values for each country and are aggregated to regional and world totals. In doing so, we are able to obtain maximum likelihood estimates of both the value of each market and the share that Finland is likely to receive this year. From these figures, rankings are calculated to allow managers to prioritize Finland compared to other major country markets. In this way, all the figures provided in this report are forecasts that can be combined with internal information sources for strategic planning purposes.
After the worldwide summary in Chapter 2 of both imports and exports of leather apparel and clothing accessories, Chapter 3 goes into detail on imports, but for each major country of origin serving Finland. A "major" market is defined as a country where Finland represents a substantially large share of either imports or exports. For each major country exporting to Finland, one can thus observe how important Finland is to that exporting country compared to other countries of the world. Chapter 4 does the same, but for exports of leather apparel and clothing accessories originating from Finland, for each major country of destination. In doing so, one can discover the share that Finland has in each major market; this share value is often used as a measure of competitiveness for Finland. In all cases, the total dollar volume and percentage share values by major trading partner are provided. Combined, Chapters 3 and 4 present a the total picture for imports and exports of leather apparel and clothing accessories to and from Finland to and from all other major countries in the world. "Leather Apparel and Clothing Accessories" as a category is defined in this report following the definition given by the United Nations Statistics Division Classification Registry using the Standard International Trade Classification, Revision 3 (SITC, Rev. 3). The SITC code that defined "leather apparel and clothing accessories" is 8481 . SHOW LESS READ MORE >

Two more CSC students deny theft chargesNovember 06,2013Student theft ring:
Two more charged
Two more Castleton State College student athletes have denied charges that they stole merchandize from a sporting goods store in Rutland Town.
Eric N. Cross, 19, of Morrisville and Zachary Howe, 28, of Westminster pleaded innocent in Rutland criminal court to misdemeanor charges of retail theft. Cross faces two theft charges while Howe is charged with a single count.
They are among six CSC students who have been charged with stealing from Dicks Sporting Goods.
Students Brandon E. Boyle and George A. Busharis have already denied a felony charge of retail theft and four misdemeanor charges of retail theft respectively.
Two other students, Dominic S. Heller and Mark Comstock, have also been charged in the theft ring and have been cited into court at a later date.
All six are players on the CSC football or soccer teams. Two more unidentified students in the alleged theft ring have been suspended by the college from sports but not charged.
Vermont State Police said Cross, with the help of Boyle, who worked at the store, left the store on two occasions with merchandise that wasnt paid for. The value of the items taken was $172.99, police said.
Police said Howe took merchandise from the store once, but the value of the goods was $304.93.MORE IN This Just InWHITE RIVER JUNCTION A New Hampshire man is expected to spend nine months in jail in his home...

I found this story interesting and ironic ... long live PBR
The Resurgence of Pabst Blue Ribbon
In Buying In: What We Buy and Who We Are, Rob Walker discusses the mysterious return of PBR.
When I was an undergrad in Oklahoma in the late 90s, PBR had very distinct connotations: it was a crappy, cheap beer you only drank if you didnt have the money to buy better beer. I know this in large part because I had a number of friends who werent in college and lived on low incomes for various reasons, including some who were in bands and kept crappy day jobs just until they got their big record deal. [Just FYI: a punk-influenced song about Schrodinger's cat can be quite catchy and informative, but it may not be the key to fame and fortune.]
I digress. The point is, they often drank PBR because it was cheap. As far as I could tell, they didnt do so out of a sense that PBR was good or cool, but because they could buy larger quantities of it than other beer (I was never a beer drinker, so I wasnt directly engaged in the decision-making process about which brand to buy). It was the beer version of ramen noodles: not necessarily exciting, but itll suffice if its all you can buy. And at various times I would overhear other people make nasty comments about PBR. It, and its drinkers, were, to put it bluntly, considered trashy by a lot of people.
But as Walker describes, PBR has become hip in a lot of places. Walker describes its resurgence since about 2002, when sales, which had dropped precipitously over the last twenty years, suddenly rose 5%. Portland, OR, seems to be the epicenter of the rediscovery of PBR, though it soon spread to other cities, with trendy bars adding it to their menu.
PBR, surprised by this, set about finding out what was going on. They eventually decided that PBR had become a protest brand, the non-hyped underdog beer that hipsters chose because it was non-mainstream and wasnt constantly pushed at them by a PR machine. As a result, PBR rejected a lot of standard marketing tactics (though they did pay to have the beer placed in the 2009 movie Whip It, among others). Instead, they chose to focus on sponsoring events that the new customer base attended or participated in, but in a relatively quiet, non-intrusive way. Heres a post for an event PBR is sponsoring this Saturday in Atlanta:
Part of PBRs image, and attraction to people who consider themselves outsiders, is its association with what Walker calls a blue-collar, honest-workingman, vaguely anticapitalist image (p. 113). Its old-school, blue-collar, salt-of-the-earth beer from the days of Milwaukees manufacturing and beer-producing glory. When you buy PBR, it lists a P.O. Box in Milwaukee, and the website lists Milwaukee at the bottom of the page.
Except not so much. PBR is no longer headquartered in Milwaukee. In 1985 PBR was purchased by a man who was buying up a lot of low-market-share beer companies. He moved the headquarters to San Antonio (in May of this year he announced he sold PBR to another company; the headquarters are now in a suburb of Chicago). The move put about 250 people in Milwaukee out of work, including a lot of the blue-collar workers the beer is associated with.
On top of that, PBR doesnt actually make beer anymore. Miller brews beer for the company, which then packages it in PBR cans. PBR is no longer a producer of beer; its a name and logo attached to beer made by a company many of the people drinking PBR would probably dislike. On the one hand, PBR is a case that shows how consumers make decisions and can affect the marketplace independent of advertising campaigns; PBR certainly wasnt spending a lot of money trying to woo this new demographic and didnt initially know quite what to make of it. A group of consumers identified with PBR. That is, they saw the company as like them. They dislike in-your-face marketing, the feeling that companies are trying to manipulate them. Theyre outsiders who see themselves as dissenters from a lot of mainstream culture. And PBR fits well with this identity; its the underdog, old-school beer company that isnt actively trying to win over consumers. No TV commercials, no PBR babes in bikinis giving away free samples at bars. And it has working-class cachet.
But much of this is symbolic. Buying PBR makes money for Miller, a company that uses the loud marketing techniques hipsters express disdain for. At this point, you could argue that PBR is simply a beer fashion label. And while it might have associations with the working-class, the process of outsourcing its beer to Miller and moving headquarters to a different state left quite a few members of that class out of work. Walker argues that this indicates a new form of solidarity with blue-collar workers. It isnt about making sure youre buying from companies that pay a living wage or fighting for better working conditions. Symbolic solidarity paying a nod to the working class by buying products (beer, clothing, etc.) is often seen as sufficient. By drinking PBR youre identifying with blue-collar workers in spirit, if not in any specific, concrete way.
PBR capitalizes on the perceptions of the brand while engaging in or working companies who engage in many of the practices that those who repopularized it were rejecting when they switched to PBR in the first place.
And, just to add one more twist to the story in China, PBR sells a specialty beer called Blue Ribbon 1844:
How much does the beer sold by the cheap, working-class company cost in China? Why, $44 a bottle. A PBR executive who oversees the Asian market explains, Theres the nouveau riche, and in China, perception is everythinglook at me, Im rich. Not exactly the bike-messenger hipster crowd.
So there you go the long, bizarre, contradictory story of PBR.

OB still says gain 25-35 pounds
I'm 5'5" 280lb and my plan with my midwife and OB is to gain zero. I'm 24 weeks and gained nothing so far just by eating the same as before and she said to add an extra serve of protein (before pregnancy I was following weight watchers and lost about 60lb).
You're in control of your eating so you will be all good as long as baby is happy and healthy is the main thing and they will keep track of your weight.
Don't stress xx
Supermom- BIG. little.
"Please, Jenna can't hear us, she's blind."-- Hanna Marin
I'm wondering If I have the only dr who has said nothing but watch your weight. I'm 5' and started out at 230. Lost 10 in the first trimester and at Mondays appointment I'm back at 230 at 28 weeks. When he was doing his little check list at the end of the appointment. He said weight looked good.
Kristen~ Girlfriend to Paul (July 2006) Mommy to Angel Sept 06, Liam Kayne Aug 2007, Angel Oct 11, Angel Jan 12, and Elzibath Yvette Mar 2013!
And with my son I gained 25 total and it was all off within 2 months
Married to my best friend. angel baby 12/09. Mommy with Gold Tatas to Mocha Muffins River 2010 and Aaron 2013
Trust me I stress about my weight gain, but I realize that pregnancy is a gift and if I stress out all the time I won't enjoy it. I weigh myself twice a week and make better choices if I see the number go up, but in all honesty you will probably fluctuate a lot in the beginning.
All that matters to her is that baby & I are healthy.
I am 5'3 and started at 210. They told me to expect to gain 10-15 but that slightly more or slightly less wouldn't be bad.
Mine said between 11-20. She wasn't worried when I lost in the first trimester, though, other than to make sure I wasn't having bad morning sickness or anything. OB also explained that if I was eating healthy and ate enough for "me" (not for two), it wasn't uncommon to see some women gain nothing, and that was perfectly healthy. She said baby would grow regardless of what I gained or lost (like a parasite, kind of ;)).

After a brief vacation (well deserved) and a break from blogging I've done some stomach/soul searching and decided to consolidate my blogs. Epic sandwich will now be a frequent feature on Hungry in Southwest. When I started blogging it was simply a hobby. Now that I've added a second personal blog, and the City Pages gig, it seems like I've really fragmented my content and lost track of why I got into blogging in the first place. A wise man (Shefzilla himself) once stated that he envisioned blogging as simply an art project and ideally, I feel the same way about what I do. I think I can make that all happen in one concentrated effort that will hopefully lead to a better user experience. The new and improved Hungry in Southwest will benefit from the additional content and readers can still find all the sandwich goodness in its new home starting next week when I head over to Clancey's Meat and Fish to see if they can deliver beyond their killer (bad pun) butcher business. I've heard from numerous sources that they haver serious sandwich cred (no doubt they have impecable ingredients) and I plan on putting it to the test. Thanks all, I'll see you over at Hungry in Southwest and you can still catch me every Wedensday morning here.
Happy Eating,

The writer/director of The Savages explains why a movie about siblings, nursing homes, and dementia is sexier than it sounds.
Nearly 10 years ago, Tamara Jenkins delighted cult movie junkies with her surprising comedy, Slums of Beverly Hills. Well, now she's back with another movie inspired by her life, although this one might not be quite as raucous.
Starring Laura Linney (Kinsey, The Nanny Diaries) and Philip Seymour Hoffman (Capote, Magnolia) as siblings who must deal with putting their aging and estranged father into a nursing home, The Savages isn't exactly as packed with laughs as her previous efforts. "On the surface it's not such a sexy sell," says Jenkins. "If in fact you just hear the architecture of the story--'Oh, it's about a brother and sister taking care of a dying father who has dementia,'--it doesn't quite capture it."
Luckily, the critics are buzzing about The Savages, particularly Laura Linney's role in it. "It's such a delicate movie that to get that kind of attention, it's really nice," says Jenkins, who completely agrees that Linney deserves all the praise she's getting.
What might be most striking about The Savages is the pairing of Linney and Hoffman. Both have long been considered as some of the best actors around, and it is surprising to realize they have never been paired up in a film before. "I was really fortunate that not only are they individually incredibly brilliant as we know based on their whole bodies of work, but they had something really delicious together," which Jenkins explains is not always a foregone conclusion. "You can have individually brilliant actors, just great actors, and then you bring them together and it doesn't have that extra level of chemistry. And [The Savages] is such a study in dynamics, that if that didn't happen, it would be dreadful. When I was casting it and talking to my casting director and we were all brainstorming about it, I was like, 'It's like a love story. It's like you're casting a love story, but instead of boyfriend and girlfriend, it's brother and sister. And if they don't have that thing, we're going to be D.O.A.'"
Although she is loath to call it an autobiography, per se, the movie has some very personal roots for Jenkins, whose father and grandmother both had dementia and both were in nursing homes. "It certainly is personal and real, but it's not a strict memoir. I think it's important to distinguish or else I'd be like that guy James Frey who wrote a memoir called A Million Little Pieces and it was massively fictionalized," she laughs. "It's not a memoir, but it certainly has its root in a very significant personal experience. And then you invent and you riff and you draw and you build and you fictionalize."
And she Jenkins also doesn't want you to think this movie is just a way for her to process her own past, either. "I get nervous about that word 'cathartic,' because it sounds like it's such a personal therapy that it would be something you put in your diary with a lock and key," she says. "I think mostly I'm a dramatist of sorts and I'm interesting in taking this core experience--something that I know--and then kind of building this dramatic, how to exploit it to examine human behavior. In the case of this story, Jon and Wendy, they're being put in such a primal situation that it pushes all these different feelings and motives and it's a very revealing environment."
No one is going to question that Jenkins created some very interesting, very complete characters in Jon and Wendy Savage. "They really are yin and yang, and without each other they wouldn't be able to handle it," she says of them. "These are two siblings, two human beings, two specimens, that were subjected to the exact same environment growing up, they lived under the same circumstances, but they responded in these completely opposite ways."
The Savages opens in limited release today, November 28, 2007.

Comments about Step2 All Around Easel for Two™:
After checking numerous reviews I purchased this for my children, ages 3 & 5. It may look a bit little tike"ish" for an older child but it is very sturdy.
My husband used a hammer to get it in place; it won't be going anywhere. It is not compact, but doesn't take up much space (we have a small house).
My children love to draw and this saves paper.
The magnets include a lot of smaller pieces that could be a choking hazard to an infant.

The Nation's Pulse
Noisy Nights in Paradise
Amazon parrots sure know where to go for spring break.
PALM BEACH, Fla. -- Each night, dozens of little green parrots come home to the pine trees right outside our bedroom window to spend the night by the ocean.
We're at the legendary Breakers Hotel, and these birds are wild green-cheeked Amazon parrots (Amazona Viridigenalis). They're an endangered species, reduced steadily in number since the 1980s by habitat loss and unsustainable capture rates for the pet trade.
The green-cheeks, native to Mexico, reportedly have only a single breeding site in Florida, a 150-year-old stand of ornamental Australian pine (Casuarina) at The Breakers.
This particular population of parrots on the hotel's grounds, steady in number at approximately 100 to 150 birds for decades, is thought to have resulted from a single release of the wild birds sometime during the 1940s -- perhaps by the hotel's entrepreneurial owner to add some tropical color.
"Breeding of the green-cheek is completely dependent on the naturally forming cavities within a row of old-growth Casuarina that were planted as ornamental vegetation during the 1860s along the original entry road to The Breakers Hotel," reports the Rare Species Conservatory Foundation. "No other suitable nesting trees appear to be available to the species in south Florida."
Twice a day, in the morning when they're leaving for the day and at night when they're returning to their favorite trees, just like the daily rush hours of humans, these small parrots provide "a raucous spectacle for onlookers," the conservatory explains.
Hotel guests with windows near the trees have occasionally complained about the ruckus, asking that either the birds be moved or silenced or that they themselves be transferred to a quiet room with no nearby Australian pines and noisy Mexican miniatures.
The evening period of commotion occurs like clockwork when the birds come flying home right before sundown -- this week at 7:10 p.m., give or take a few minutes. They dive and squawk until they get what they consider a satisfactory branch for the evening, so there's about 10 or 15 minutes or so of light screeching, hardly enough of a misfortune to warrant a call to security or a money-back departure.
Regarding the money, our "standard" room is $610 a night, with $50 back per night in rewards to spend at the hotel's shops or restaurants. The top meal at the top restaurant at the hotel last night was $175 per person, a "tasting" dinner, plus $90 per person for a suggested wine pairing, plus a mandated 20 percent gratuity, so that's $265 per person plus a $53 tip, or a per capita total of $318.
For two of us, that's $636 for a single meal. True, it's at a fine place, L'Escalier, The Breakers' AAA five-diamond restaurant. But at $50 in rewards per night, we'd have to stay 13 nights just to get that one top-notch complimentary meal. That's $7,930 just in room rents, not counting breakfast and lunch, and not counting dinner the other 12 nights.
In any case, the $318 dinner started with something called a "Mozzarella Explosion." A "Cherry Bomb Radish" came next in the second course. That was followed by a "Variation of Powders," just in case, I suppose, the previous things didn't properly ignite.
For dessert, and it would have fit perfectly with the apparent theme, the final course surprisingly didn't feature a slice of "Death by Chocolate" or "Triple Fudge Suicide." The whole thing sounded to me like an entree at a jihadist training camp.
Down the beach in Fort Lauderdale a few nights ago, we saw how the local turtles managed to turn out the lights on a classy beachfront wedding. I asked our server why the hundred or so guests at the fancy wedding dinner on an adjacent patio by the water were eating in the dark, except for some small candles on the tables, most of which were being repeatedly blown out by the breeze.
"We're required to turn off all the outside lights from March through October because the light messes up the turtles' sense of direction during breeding season," he explained. "We even have to turn around the TV screens in the bar so their light can't be seen from the ocean. People camp out on the beach at midnight to monitor the hotel's lights and turn us in if we're in non-compliance."

ALBANY, N.Y. - New York Veterans are encouraged to apply for new lifetime liberty passes.
A press release says the Liberty Pass permits qualified disabled Veterans discounted use of state parks, historic sites, and recreational facilities operated by the Office Parks, Recreation and Historic Preservation (State Parks) and the Department of Environmental Conservation (DEC).
"New York's disabled veterans put their lives on the line for our state and nation, and providing them with lifetime access to our parks is one small way we can continue to extend our gratitude for their service," Governor Cuomo said. "As we approach this Memorial Day weekend and prepare for the summer park season, I encourage all qualified veterans to take advantage of this new opportunity."

How long did LO cry when sleep training
Comments (5)
The last 4 nights she has slept anywhere from 5-8 hours after initially falling asleep. But it is a HUGE improvement from waking every 20 minutes before.
I was at my wits end and her pedi recommended I stop nursing her to sleep. We also transitioned her to her crib in her nursery from her pnp in our room the night we started sleep training 5 days ago.
Good luck!
With DS I went in at 5, 7, and 10 mins, and never had to go in after that. I would pick him up, calm him down, and put him back down. It took maybe a week.
With DD, periodic checks made it worse for her (she screamed for close to 90 mins a night for a week). Staying in the room didn't work either. I did full on extinguish CIO (put her down awake, leave, don't go back). The first night she cried for 90 mins, but it was less and less every night after that. After about a week she would fuss for about 10 minutes, if at all.
Be prepared for it to take about a week, and they usually regress after 10-14 days for a few days. Stick with it - DD now goes to sleep 100% on her own, with less than 5 mins of fussing, if any.

Bioarchaeological and Climatological Evidence for the Fate of Norse Farmers in Medieval Greenland
Buckland, P. C., Amorosi, T., Barlow, L. K., Dugmore, A. J., Mayewski, P. A., McGovern, T. H., Ogilvie, A. E. J., Sadler, J. P., Skidmore, P., Antiquity
Greenland, far north land of the Atlantic, has often been beyond the limit of European farming settlement. One of its Norse settlements, colonized just before AD 1000, is astonishingly - not even at the southern tip, but a way up the west coast, the 'Western Settlement'. Environmental studies show why its occupation came to an end within five centuries, leaving Greenland once more a place of Arctic-adapted hunters.
Norse settlement in Greenland
According to medieval Icelandic sources, the Norse colonization of Greenland begun in c. AD 985. Two main areas of settlement were established: the Western Settlement, in the inner fjords east of present-day Nuuk (Godthab) [ILLUSTRATION FOR FIGURE 1 OMITTED], the modern capital, and the Eastern Settlement at the southern tip of Greenland, near modern Igaliko (Gardhar) (Ingstad 1966; Jones 1986). By the end of the 15th century, these Norse colonies had disappeared. This demise has frequently been linked to adverse changes in climate, specifically, the so-called 'Little Ice Age' (cf. Dansgaard et al. 1975; Lamb 1977). There has been much discussion regarding the reality of this climatic event (Grove 1988). Suffice it here to say, although low-temperature events in the latter half of the present millennium are well documented, it is clear that these are neither temporally nor spatially synchronous in all localities of the North Atlantic region. We therefore present the following data without invoking the term 'Little Ice Age', or the connotations surrounding it.
The Western Settlement, in particular, has been a focus of sustained multidisciplinary study, and it is primarily this settlement which is considered here. Some of the findings are compared with proxy climatic data extrapolated from the Greenland Ice Sheet Project (GISP2) ice core. This core was drilled between 1992 and 1993 in central Greenland, in the summit of the ice sheet at 3210 m above sea level, at lat. 72 [degrees] 28[minutes] N, long. 38 [degrees] 35[minutes] W. The proxy records provided by ice cores have been interpreted as indicators of climatic change. More recently, technological advances, combined with the long stratigraphic integrity of the GISP2 core, have resulted in highly detailed proxy records, which range in timescales from seasons to thousands of years [ILLUSTRATION FOR FIGURE 2 OMITTED]. This high level of detail has already given new insights into the climate history of the North Atlantic region (Alley et al. 1993; Mayewski et al. 1993a; 1993b; 1994; Barlow 1994; Zielinski et al. 1994).
Studies, primarily archaeological, historical and anthropological, have shown that, from the start of the Norse settlement in Greenland, subsistence was based upon milk and meat from cattle, sheep and goats (McGovern 1985a) [ILLUSTRATION FOR FIGURE 3 OMITTED]. Fossil beetle faunas from the more recently excavated farms in the Western Settlement are dominated by introduced synanthropous elements (Sadler 1991), which lived in stored hay and related habitats. These underline the need for an adequate hay crop to overwinter indoors the domestic stock which could not otherwise survive. Shortfalls in subsistence were made up by intensive, largely land-based exploitation of seals and seabirds in the spring, and caribou drives with hunting dogs in the autumn. There is no evidence for any significant domesticated plant-food contribution to the diet, although the seeds of wild fruits, principally crowberry (Empetrum nigrum L.) and bilberry (Vaccinium uliginosum L.) are frequent in samples from the farm middens (McGovern et al. 1983). These core subsistence activities required tight co-ordination of communal labour resources and produced little storable surplus. Nevertheless, by 1300 this mixed dairying-hunting society had invested heavily in stone architecture. In the Eastern Settlement, monasteries and parish churches, as well as a cathedral at Gardhar (Igaliko) had been built, equipped with imported stained glass and bronze church bells. …

21-year-old charged with DUI 3
FERRISBUGH - A 21-year-old local man is facing his third charge of drunken driving after police stopped him on an all-terrain vehicle earlier today.
Around 1:20 a.m., state police stopped Patrick P. McCarthy, of Ferrisburg, as he drove a four-wheeler at what police described as an "excessive rate of speed" along Greenbush Road. Police said McCarthy had been drinking.
Police charged McCarthy with drunken driving, third offense, a felony, as well as driving with a suspended license and careless or negligent operation of a motor vehicle.
State law prohibits the operation of all-terrain vehicles on public roads, unless the road is not maintained during the winter. Greenbush Road is maintained by the town during the winter, according to town officials.
McCarthy is scheduled to appear in Addison criminal court March 4.MORE IN This Just InBARRE The Raiders built a 13-1 halftime lead before shifting into cruise control Thursday...

in response to INEEDIPODHELPHI,
You may be using an application that disables the Home button without realizing it. Restart your iPad, open a different app and see if that makes a difference.
If the problem persists, try resetting the iPad. Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button at the same time for at least ten seconds or until the Apple logo appears.
I've had this happen myself and restarting and / or resetting did the trick. Hope it works for you.
If not, check out the troubleshooting chapter in the iPad Online User Guide here.

COMMERCE CITY — Wearing a stocking cap and with his arms folded to ward off the cold Tuesday, Conor Casey was an on-field spectator at the snowy second morning of the Rapids' training camp.
The 30-year-old forward and the franchise's highest-paid player is coming off a torn Achilles tendon and subsequent surgery. He is at least a few weeks away from being able to join practices under new coach Oscar Pareja.
But the early prognosis was Casey wouldn't be able to play for eight months after the July 20 surgery, so he seems to be on track — or ahead of schedule. The Rapids open the regular season March 10, and a return exactly eight months after surgery would mean missing only the first two games.
"I'm about six months out from surgery, and I'm jogging, jump-roping, hopping," Casey said after practice ended on the field adjacent to Dick's Sporting Goods Park. "So the Achilles is good, and it's just really building up calf strength now. ... I'm going to have to see how I progress. I'm shooting to try to be able to play sometime in March. I don't know exactly when that will be, and we'll just have to wait and see how that plays out."
Casey had six goals in 14 games in 2011, but the MLS season ended for him against Seattle on the road July 16.
"I took a step and it popped," Casey recalled. "It was kind of a freak thing. It wasn't that I was in an awkward position or anything like that, so it was pretty strange."
Casey, who underwent knee surgery earlier in his career, is familiar with the rehab process. A graduate of Denver South High School and a product of the Colorado Rush club program, he played two years two years at the University of Portland and several years in Germany before coming to MLS in 2007. He played only two games for Toronto in 2007 before the Rapids acquired him. He has 48 goals in 101 games for his hometown team.
The U.S. national team veteran was on crutches until late October before throwing them aside and starting to do more physical work.
"I'd say it's been that last month that I've started making big strides and do more and more," he said. "It's exciting now that I can sweat and get a good workout and tire myself out."
When he returns, he again will be counted on to be the Rapids' top offensive threat — this time for Pareja, who succeeds the fired Gary Smith — and the franchise's stop drawing card.
"Conor knows that this team needs him," Pareja said. "It's going to be up to him to do whatever he can control, to be back on the training ground and in the games. He knows how important he is, but I want him to really want it. He can do it again, and he can be what Conor was in 2010 again. I hear from the doctors that he's doing much better than the plan was, which is great news for me.
"Conor has been around. Conor has won an MLS Cup. Conor is the face of this organization, as is Pablo (Mastroeni) and a couple more. Conor has been at the highest level. When you have an (injury) like that, the first thing a coach wonders is, 'Does he still want it enough?' For me, it's no 90 percent. It has to be 100 percent or more. The answer with him is 'Yes,' and I sense that. I will do whatever is possible because I need him."
Pareja's hiring also followed a front-office overhaul, and Casey noticed the offseason turmoil.
"They've opted for change, and they've really gone for it," Casey said. "There's a lot of positive things that are happening right now, and I think it's an exciting time to be here, for everybody."

Kaiser Foundation Health Plan of Colorado was the top-rated health plan in the state, closely followed by Cigna HealthCare of Colorado, according to the findings of the nonprofit National Committee for Quality Assurance.
The findings were reported today in Consumer Reports Health. The organization is the primary U.S. group that sets measurement standards for health insurance, accredits plans and measures the quality of care they achieve.
Although the Kaiser plan rated highest in the categories of "prevention" and "treatment," it received a "worse than average" rating in the consumer-satisfaction category.
Cigna rated highest in Colorado for "consumer satisfaction" and rated "better than average" in prevention and treatment.
Kaiser ranked ninth among the best overall health plans in the nation, according to the report. Cigna ranked 74th nationally.
Kaiser and Cigna were followed by HMO Colorado; Aetna Health (Pennsylvania)-Colorado; UnitedHealthcare of Colorado; Rocky Mountain Health Plans; and Denver Health Medical Plan.
Consumer Reports noted that Denver Health Medical Plan not only ranks last in the state but second to last nationally out of 227 insurance plans rated.

What no sour cream? This can't be right.ReplyDeleteReplies
No, this is correct. Notice it says "dressing" and not "dip?" It's supposed to stay at that sort of thick-nut-runny consistency, like any other dressing would.Delete
I used greek yogurt with a bit of milk to thin it instead of buttermilk (none in the house), and it turned out wonderful. thanks!!ReplyDelete
I will be trying this!ReplyDelete
Just like the restaurant!!!ReplyDelete
Did I do something wrong? It is WAY thick, like dip.ReplyDeleteReplies
Followed directions exactly. This recipe is all wrong ! The cayenne pepper discolors it and makes it way too hot ! My search continues !ReplyDelete

Sure, the Internet is getting a lot of talk as a fundamental tool in modern political campaigns, but what about the hot air balloon? In the June 4 European Parliament elections, the Dutch Christian Democrats Party (CDA) won five of the Netherlands' 25 seats. Their strategy: advertising with a hot air balloon featuring the face of Dutch Prime Minister Jan Peter Balkenende, a member of the CDA. A 10-meter-long banner reading "Vote CDA on June 4" hung from the basket. Though before you run out and buy up your own hot air balloon, note that the CDA suffered a net loss of two seats in the election.Michael Sijbom, head of communications for the CDA, sent along the above picture and an email:
The Christian Democrats (CDA) in The Netherlands used a new campaign tool during the European elections campaign. The Christian Democrats were literally flying in the last four weeks of the campaign. They did not use the bike to cross the low lands, but a giant hot air balloon featuring the face of Dutch Prime Minister Balkenende, also a Christian Democrat. The CDA used the hot air balloon as a new medium in attracting voter's attention. They not only managed to put media attention on the CDA as a party, but at the same time they also showed how beautiful the Netherlands are and it is worth taking a balloon flight to explore this in an environmental sustainable way. The CDA even used the balloon as a price in many contests and campaign actions. List leader mister Wim van de Camp took a few of his Hyves friends (famous Dutch internet social network) on one of his tours. During the campaign and the take off of each balloon, a 10 meters long banner was hanging below the basket saying "vote CDA June 4" on the one side and a giant picture of list leader Van de Camp on the other side and his name written below. The balloon is designed by Dick van Straalen. The balloon shows the skyline of the Netherlands, with amongst others the famous Erasmus bridge in Rotterdam, a medieval city gate and a historical Frisian boat. Windmills are also to be seen and the face of the Prime Minister. In big letters is written CDA. The balloon is made by Lindstrand Balloons in England and has a height of more than 25 meters. It has a volume of 5000 m3.<!-- /article-body --> <!-- x --> Twitter Facebook Google Plus RSS Email a Friend RSS RSS RSS Comments <!-- ERROR id = "comment" --> <!-- MESSAGE id = "approval" --> Name: * Email: * Submit

Basically you'll have to make sure to back up manually by right clicking on your device in the device list and choosing "backup", then do the same again to transfer your purchases. Make sure you have at least one contact and event listed on your computer, to be able to merge data when you sync for the first time.
Contacts and photos taken with the ipad are part of the backup, see this article: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4079
Photos can also be copied to your computer, as explained here: Copying personal photos and videos from iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch to your computer

If you have iTunes on any computer, go to iTunes > Preferences > Device Preferences and check the box that says to Prevent iPads from syncing automatically.
That way, you will be able to upgrade without losing anything on your iPad.
If you don't have iTunes on a computer, you can TRY to upgrade via the Apps application, but I don't know if you can do that before IOS5 is installed on your iPad.
Thank you guys, i will let you know how it goes to complete this thread. I think iOS5 is not quite out yet, so tomorrow I will reply.
Unfortunately, you still need a computer with iTunes to ugrade to IOS5. Afterwards, you won't need a computer, but you do need one to get to IOS5.
It is available now.
Guys this is not working. I have: 1. transfered my purchases, 2: done a backup, 3: done a sync,
But I am still getting this wretched message:
How can I get round this message please. I am sorry if I have no understodd your instructions, but they are not clear. I see on twitter iOS5 has killed the data on millions of iPhones and iPads, I DO NOT WANT THIS MTO HAPPEN TO ME!
Thanks very much...
You can't update your firmware without letting iTunes delete and restore your ipad.
But it works, I just updated my iPhone4 to the new iOS5. And I did not lose contact info or any other data like photos for example.
It took iTunes 30min to upgrade the software and another 30min to transfer the apps and music back to my device.
First I checked for updates for my MacOS and installed them. After the computer has been restarted, I connected my phone to iTunes, backed up the phone, downloaded the update without installing.
After that I launched iTunes again, connected the phone and let iTunes do the work. An hour later my data,
settings, apps and other media were back on my phone.
There are a few settings for the use of iCloud that you have to make before your home screen will show up, but after that you're "back in business".
i did this and update worked perfect first time and everything is working great. thanks
Yes. your data will be removed, but don't panic: everything will be restored. You just need to be patient.

I am going through the same dilemma. I just successfully updated my iPhone 4 to IOS5 but my iPad 2 is synced to my home computer but I am currently traveling so no access to that. If I do the iPad 2 update using my Macbook Air, it might be able to update it but how can it restore the photos, music and videos since those all reside on my home computer. (I can re-download the apps but not sure if the data files are going to be intact).
Has anyone tried updating iPad 2 using a computer other than the it syncs with? Thanks.
What I did to get it to work was go around checking the boxes in the apps, music, photos etc tabs and then doing another sync. After that the message about deleting everything vanished and it worked ok.
That sounds like a solution but cannot you expand on the steps you did to avoid deletion of stuff on the iPad while upgrading to IOS5, just wanted to make sure I don't screw up and wipe everything while I am still on the road. Thanks.
What check boxes in the apps, music and photo tabs are you talking about? I don't see a checkbox in any of them.
In iTunes, when you sync your device, select that device in the panel on the left.
You wil see a series of pages with tabs at the top. If you go to the appropriate page, you will see the check boxes mentioned.
Happy New Year everyone, I'm also experiencing problems updating my ipad 2 to IOS 5 I keep getting this message there was aproblem downloading the software for the ipad 2 the network connection timed out, make sure your network settings are correct or your network connection is active or try later. What can I do??? A million thanks
