I said this about our ladies today...but I firmly believe this applies across the board - especially in today's environment...with the coaches we have...
You can knock us down. You can look like you've beaten us. You can try to embarrass us too.
But when the chips are down...when our character is tested...
Win, lose or draw - you're going to get our best shot until there is no more time left.

Wow, best 40,000 credits I ever lost...
I'm freaking out at work!!! People are looking at me rather strange. What a gutsy, gutsy performance today. Take note men. This was unbelievable!
Wow, 22, that brought tears to me. That speech might even trump al pacino's in any given sunday.
The men were at the game too, you have to believe McDermott will be using this to motivate us tomorrow! Can this acctually give the men some momentum?
Nice to see our men cheering them on, and this has to fuel their fire, no doubt about it.
Cyclone pride is alive ad well!!
Lacey must be a meteorologist as the twister went right across Manhattan today.
Let Prohm's Posse Ride: Hallice, Brady, Stu, Lard, Naz, Deonte, Monte, Matt, Simeon, Jordan, and Babb.
Yeah, I seen rahshon clark and wesley johnson out on the court congratulating them
I'd give my left eye to see the men put on a performance like this. You can't say enough good things about the job Bill has done this year with losing two key players.
My coworkers (Hawk fans mind you) are giving me crap about being so excited for women's bball but they just have no idea how amazing ISU bball is and how much the fans appreciate the heart of these kids. What a great day.
Very young team is getting some great playing experience - should lock up a berth in NCAAs. The last ten minutes were like a war.
It was great to see the men there, pretty sure I saw the whole team at the end.
Go Cyclones!!
**** Iowa!!

If it doesn't, then our guys are not who I thought they were.
This win should motivate any Cyclone team.
Show that overtime to the guys right before the game Thursday night. Cael, get a copy and show it to your guys before they take the mat at Nationals.
Gene - pull it out before our season starts this fall...yeah - our FB team can learn from a women's basketball team.
That attitude, heart, dedication and will-power to never die - to not go quietly into the night. But instead to fight, claw, kick and scream our want to the end...
Is what should exemplify Iowa State University athletics. Gene's said it himself. We may get beat, but that team across the field is going to know we played more physical and harder than they did.
When you did that, it eventually pays off.
That ending is what is great about basketball in general and all that is good in sports!
Iowa State became the Cyclones after they leveled Northwestern in 1895. As the Chicago Tribune (9/29/1895) noted:
'Struck by a Cyclone
It Comes from Iowa and Devastates Evanston Town'
Lacey makes up for Jamaal's Hampton as she completely takes over the game at the end.

Ana Ivanovic and Rafael Nadal have a lot in common these days: matching French Open crowns, love of Rafa's home of Mallorca and now, apparently, the island's infamous stalkeratti!
Rafa was the recent victim of the camera-toting peepsters and now it seems they've switched their lenses over to the sexy Serb. Ana was spotted poolside looking super fit and super hot (though the same can't be said for some others in the group) as she grabbed some well earned R+R with coach Sven Groenefeld, physio Scott Byrnes and the family.
The world no. 1 recently blogged about her time on the island paradise saying,
I've just left Mallorca. I came here for both a holiday and to prepare for the hard court season. It was a memorable trip.Seriously, could Mallorca be the 21st century version of Fantasy Island? Ricardo Mantalban, be proud...
I know Mallorca a little bit from my junior days – I used to go there to train with my coach at the time, Erik Van Harpen. I actually won my first ever senior tournament there.
I love beaches and warm weather, so it was the perfect destination after the long season in Europe ended. It gave me the opportunity to relax, reflect on what I've achieved and look forward to the next part of the season, which will also be very busy!
As well as exploring some of the secluded areas of the island by taking boat rides, I tried some of the local delicacies like gazpacho, paella and tapas. What I remember most vividly is the beautiful turquoise colour of the sea and the pure white sand.

COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP) — A central Ohio school district that's been at the center of a statewide attendance-tampering probe says federal authorities have gotten involved.
The Columbus City Schools confirmed Tuesday that federal entities are investigating the district and it intends to fully cooperate. Ohio Auditor Dave Yost is also reviewing the district.
Authorities are trying to determine whether employees improperly manipulated enrollment and attendance records of poor-performing students to improve performance rankings.
Yost's top lawyer sent a letter to the district Thursday indicating Columbus will be separated from other schools being investigated as part of a statewide review. William Owen attributed the decision to "the strong likelihood" that individuals in the Columbus case would be referred for criminal prosecution.
Franklin County Prosecutor Ron O'Brien said Tuesday he had not seen any referrals.

Thank you, Mr. Chairman, and welcome to our witness and everyone joining us this morning.
Mr. Chairman, our country and this commission have long been involved in Bosnia, one of the keys to the western Balkans. While it is not yet clear how the recent Bosnian election will affect the prospects for Bosnian constitutional reform, the problem of creating a real democracy is Bosnia will remain.
The Dayton Accords were signed 15 years ago. They achieved their purpose in stopping the genocide—they were never meant to do more than this, certainly not to become a permanent constitution. But somehow that has become the question: in deference to Bosnian Serbs, whose military in the mid-1990s forced the creation of ethnic entities through genocidal aggression, will Bosnia continue to be governed by the Dayton Accords or a Dayton-like constitution that provides for so-called "entity-voting"? Or will it become a one-person, one-vote democracy?
Bosnia has reached a fork in the road, and it has been stopped there for several years now. Under Dayton, with its mutual vetoes, neither the Bosnian Serbs, who will accept nothing less than "entity voting", nor the Bosnian and Croatian advocates of democracy, have the authority to resolve the question.
Mr. Chairman, I believe it is time for our government to exercise real leadership by re-engaging in Bosnia and vigorously promoting the only possible solution: a constitution providing for a one-person, one-vote democracy. It's not our job to get involved in drafting the constitution, but there should be a democratic constitution, and Bosnian Serbs ought not to be to prevent that in perpetuity. In practice, our policy seems to have been that there can be no movement towards reform unless the Bosnian Serbs agree. This has meant that Dayton continues, and that separatists continue to stir the pot. In Bosnia, time not on the side of democracy.
I am also particularly interested in the development of democracy in Kosovo, where a constitution has already been adopted, but which in some ways outside powers –that is, the US and Europe – may have gone too far in the opposite direction. Whereas in Bosnia, we have not done enough to promote the creation of a democratic constitution, it's my understanding that western governments and NGOs have been very involved in determining not only the fact but also the precise form of the new government. This is something we certainly ought to watch out for throughout the region – it's fundamental to democracy that the people to be governed take the lead in creating their government.

Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is a chronic endocrine disorder in women. With PCOS, the ovaries make the follicles, but the eggs do not mature or leave the ovary. The immature follicles can turn into fluid-filled sacs called
The cause is not exactly known. Genes may play a role. The problem appears related to insulin resistance that creates high levels of insulin. These high insulin levels cause too much androgen from the ovaries. This prevents ovulation and leads to enlarged, polycystic ovaries. Excess androgen is also associated with:
Factors that may increase your chances of developing PCOS include:
Some women may not have symptoms. In others, they may appear between the ages of 15-30 years. In women who have symptoms, PCOS may cause:
Women with PCOS are also at increased risk for:
The doctor will ask about your symptoms and medical history. A physical exam will be done. An ultrasound may be done to look for multiple cysts on the ovaries.
Urine and blood tests may be done to look for potential causes or check for pregnancy.
Treatment differs according to whether you want to conceive or not. The goal of treatment is to target the underlying insulin resistance that accompanies PCOS diagnosis.
Other treatment steps may include:
Birth control pills
regulate periods. Also, by causing the uterine lining to shed regularly, they reduce the risk of overgrowth or cancer. They also control abnormal hair growth and acne by suppressing androgen. Fertility drugs may be given instead to stimulate ovulation in women who want to become pregnant.
There are no current guidelines to prevent PCOS.

May 31, 2016
ROCHESTER, Mich. (AP) -- A man the U.S. government once described as a Detroit-area Mafia captain says he believes he knows where Jimmy Hoffa's body was buried.
Tony Zerilli tells WDIV that the plan was to bury the ex-Teamsters boss in Oakland County, 30 miles from a Detroit-area restaurant where Hoffa disappeared in 1975. Zerilli talked to a WDIV reporter while they sat in a vehicle at the field in Rochester.
Zerilli was in prison when Hoffa disappeared. The ailing 85-year-old says there was a plan to take Hoffa's body to a hunting lodge in northern Michigan but it never occurred.
Zerilli says Hoffa was a "gentleman" who "didn't deserve what happened." His record includes a 2002 conviction for conspiracy and extortion.
The FBI declined to comment Monday.

NAHBS: Under the radar stars
- By Nick Legan
- Published Mar. 7, 2012
- Odom stainless steel center hubs are a subtle sight to behold. Photo: Nick Legan
- Dinucci had this Curtis Odom crank on one of his display bikes. With the three arm spider, they are pure vintage class. Photo: Nick Legan
- These lugs were some of the thinnest, most artfully brazed at the show. Photo: Nick Legan
- For the 2012 NAHBS, frames entered in the Steel Construction category had to be nude (unpainted). Mark Dinucci showed this impressive lugged road frame. Photo: Nick Legan
- Though Dinucci's frame spoke volumes, he also printed up a statement to accompany it. Photo: Nick Legan
- Perfectly brazed and filed dropouts. Photo: Nick Legan
- Not many seat clusters look this clean after paint, let alone before it. Photo: Nick Legan
- This joint is very complex. First Bishop fillet brazed it to add smooth, webbed lines to the lug. Then he joined tubes using silver brazing. The result is the epitomy of understated beauty. Photo: Nick Legan
- With no need for brakes, why not take advantage of that space for a logo? Bishop's chess piece design is classy. Photo: Nick Legan
- It may look like it was built 40 years ago, but Chris Bishop crafted his "Best Steel Construction" winning track bike in the last 12 months. Photo: Nick Legan
- Bishop machined the horizontal line across his fork crown for a nice aesthetic touch. It perfectly integrated into the side scallops. Photo: Nick Legan
- Drilled rear fork ends look awesome. Photo: Nick Legan
- Bishop custom machined the bottom bracket "keirin style." It sometimes takes some looking to appreciate all the work that builders put into them. Photo: Nick Legan
Be sure to check out Nick's other features from NAHBS as well.
Not everything at NAHBS is flash, bright colors and exotic parts. Many of the most beautiful handmade items are easy to miss. Slowing down and looking carefully can go a long way. While many try to woo show goers and journalists with whiz-bang bikes, others whisper quietly about their wares. Here are some of my favorites from this year's NAHBS in Sacramento.
Curtis Odom hubs
Curtis Odom made his first bicycle hub 16 years ago. But it wasn't until last year that he began production of the gorgeous examples he had on display in Sacramento. Odom makes high flange, high-low flange (with and without cutouts), and offers stainless steel hub centers as an option. Track hubs start at $425 and road cassette versions are $530. The sealed bearing hubs are a fantastic modern interpretation of vintage high-flange hubs. In them, Odom's calling to make an elegant, high quality hubset is apparent. He also produces a very fine crankset. "Why not throw some beauty back into cycling," he said.
Dinucci Cycles
Mark Dinucci won Best in Show at last year's show in Austin. This year he showed a nude lugged bike that was easy to miss. But for those that noticed it, they were treated to one of the most perfectly executed frames I've ever seen. Without paint, a builder's work has nowhere to hide. No Bondo, no filler, just brazing and lugs.
With the frame, Dinucci printed up a statement in which he wrote, "There are no machines that do what I do and there is no CNC program for the endless pursuit of the best the craftsman is capable of. 30 years from now this frame will still reflect the thought, care and skill with which it was assembled."
Not only are Dinucci's frames beautiful, they are functional. With over 40 years of building and designing bicycles under his belt, Dinucci strives to deliver the longest fatigue life possible in his frames. He explained that it's easy to overbuild certain areas of a frame and that leads to failures elsewhere. He added, "it's a balancing act. That's what motivates me."
Bishop Bikes
Baltimore, Maryland isn't known as a hotbed for hand-built bicycles. But Chris Bishop is putting it firmly on the map with his chess piece logo and award-winning framesets. His 1970's California framebuilder style track bike won Best Steel Construction this year. New for 2012, frames entered in this category had to be unpainted.
Bishop drilled the rear fork ends, custom machined the fork crown and bottom bracket shell, fillet brazed the lugs to sculpt them and then joined tubes using silver brazing. The bike was built to Bishop's personal dimensions, but added that, "my wife's pregnant, so everything's for sale."
As word gets around about the quality of Bishop's frames, supporting his new family should get easier and easier.

WASHINGTON (WUSA9) -- One day, it may be possible to stop Alzheimer's by tracking the condition before it develops.
A new discovery out of Spain shows clues to the potential development of Alzheimer's may be already be present in a person's body.
In the cerebral spinal fluid to be exact. This is the substance that surrounds the brain and the spinal cord.
The information shows the potential for Alzheimer's in a patient 10 years before the condition actually develops. The brain disease is the 6th leading cause of death in the United States and affects over 5 million Americans.
The findings are published in the latest issue of Annals of Neurology.

Court overturns father's grounding of 12-year-old - Unusual Tales - Specials
The girl had taken her father to Quebec Superior Court after he refused to allow her to go on a school trip for chatting on websites he tried to block, and then posting "inappropriate" pictures of herself online using a friend's computer.
The father's lawyer Kim Beaudoin said the disciplinary measures were for the girl's "own protection" and is appealing the ruling.
Who's going to pay her court fees? Oh, that's right, probably daddy.
Hopefully he doesn't make her pay him back... She might sue him.

This girl is going to grow up, become a judge and sue a local dry cleaner for $65 million for losing her suit...
I'm still waiting for the day when one of my students comes to class 20 mins. late and then they sue me because I counted them tardy - I'm sure it will happen before I retire. :(
This, unfortunately, is what Canada has come to.
I'm baaack! See my Hot Milk For Breakfast blog under Social Groups for more details

My guess is this would be Hillary Clinton's wet dream for America, I mean after all, it takes a village to raise a child, and the village finally got to overrule those evil things called "parents..."
If you couldn't tell, I'm not bitter about this one bit.

I wonder if I can get the court to go back and look at the '97 grounding my father gave me for egging my gym teachers house. I think any judge will be able to clearly see that the guy was a complete ****** and had it coming.
"Beaudoin noted the girl used a court-appointed lawyer in her parents' 10-year custody dispute to launch her landmark case against her dad." - This explains it. The girl obviously has some issues. The judge needs to be disbarred.

I think this explains a lot. No custody dispute should last 10 years. That is bound to screw up the child and any family relationships. It makes me wonder just what in the world has been going on other than this particular action.

WASHINGTON (WUSA9) -- AAA Mid-Atlantic has a big warning for potential car buyers: that car with a bargain that seems too good to be true might have been damaged during Hurricane Sandy.
AAA Mid-Atlantic officials say water-damaged cars that endured Hurricane Sandy are being sold by private sellers and showing up on used car lots.
CARFAX estimates that more than 212,000 cars branded as "flood damage" by a state Department of Motor Vehicles are back on the roads nationwide, so AAA is warning potential buyers that those cars can be shipped anywhere for resale. AAA officials say nearly two-thirds of cars damaged in Hurricane Sandy are showing up in Virginia, New Jersey, New York, Pennsylvania, Florida, Texas, Kentucky, Louisiana, Illinois and Mississippi.
AAA Mid-Atlantic's John Townsend III says the cars have "checkered histories and 'scrubbed titles.'" Some sellers use "title washing" to "erase" or conceal a vehicle's damage history from a potential buyer, says Townsend. These sellers will move a flooded, totaled or junked vehicle with a salvage title through several states to scrub the title.
He suggests a potential buyer check out any used car's dashboard Vehicle Identification Number (VIN) plate to see if it has been tampered with before he or she buys it. The buyer can also have a trusted mechanic look at other VIN markings to make sure all the marked parts match.
AAA also suggests buyers conduct a title search or the vehicle through the National Insurance Crime Bureau's VINCheckSM service or get a CARFAX Vehicle History to potentially reveal if the vehicle was involved in a flood, major accident, fire, or other incident.
Other tips from AAA:
• Analyze the ownership pattern for any new or late model vehicle with no lien holder.
• Look for information from a vehicle's current title, including the vehicle's brand history. "Brands" are descriptive labels regarding the status of a motor vehicle, such as "junk," "salvage," and "flood" vehicles.
• Engage your sense of smell to detect any damp or musty odors inside the vehicle.
• Are the windows fogged up? Has the carpet or upholstery been replaced or recently shampooed? Pull back the carpet at different areas and look for mud, dirt or signs of water stains.
• Inspect the dashboard underside for signs of mud and dirt. This is a particularly hard area to clean.
• Look under the vehicle for corrosion. It is uncommon to find corrosion in newer vehicles and those that are owned or sold in southern states.
• Open all doors, hood, and trunk to inspect for corrosion, mud and dirt or discoloration on the door frames, hinges and under the weather stripping. Pay special attention to small spaces and crevices that are difficult to clean.
• Check all warning lights, window motors, and all electrical components to ensure they are working properly. While a non-working part alone does not mean the vehicle was flooded, it combined with other difficulties is a cause for concern.
• Always have the vehicle inspected by a quality repair facility prior to purchasing. AAA Approved Auto Repair facilities are located across the United States. Nearby locations can be found at AAA.com/Repair.
• Trust your instincts. If you don't like the answers or the deal sounds too good to be true, walk away!

Jay Sedrish, the executive producer of Allman Brothers biopic "Midnight Rider," has pleaded not guilty to criminal charges related to the death of camera assistant Sarah Jones on the set of the film.
Jones, 27, was killed in February as she attempted to escape a train while filming on tracks in Georgia.
Sedrish, director Randall Miller and fellow producer Jody Savin have been charged with involuntary manslaughter and criminal trespass.
Sedrish, who was also the film's production manager, has also waived his right for an arraignment.
Miller and Savin pleaded not guilty to the charges against them last month.

We know, we know. Mondays suck. They suck hard. There's nothing we can do or say to make them suck any less. Or is there? We might have something to turn that Monday frown upside down… How about 28 pictures of the sexiest man ever?! Look who's all peppy now. This week's #MCM is none other than the foxy James Franco!
We have basically been infatuated with him for a few years now and thought it was about time we went public with our feelings. Hi, my name is "Every Girl In The World," and I love me some James Franco! What's not to love about this darling man? He's got the sex appeal of James Dean, Luke Perry, and Johnny Depp all wrapped into one; the silliness of your fave stoner BFF; and a smile that would make a unicorn cry. On top of all that, it turns out that he's quite a little scholar too. (Can you say "PhD Candidate at Yale?") He's an actor, director, screenwriter, teacher, poet, Broadway star…and most importantly, God's gift to the universe.
What can we say? He's basically the perfect man. So here's to what was almost the suckiest Monday ever but is now suddenly the best Monday ever…thanks to our wonderful picture gallery full of Mr. James Franco. And don't worry, we won't tell anyone that you totally just perved out on this sweet hunk of a man. Perv on, sister. Perv on!

Oh wow, I really like your style. Especially in the tavern, the textures are simple, yet really effective. They look great!
So I've decided if I'm going to do any commissions I need to have a body of work to show and develop my brand. To that effect, I've started with encounter maps my strong suit and pump out a half dozen maps with my own refined style. First map, the Tomb, is a map I've already produced just spruced up and the second one a standard Inn/Tavern. Taking Nods from RedEpic on decor. Hope you guys enjoy this series as well as use them.

Great style - really like these too. Nice colours.
I'm going to agree with the others, Excellent. I think your style is very good for publishing, Nice textures, good detail without being overly complex, and most important, very "playable".
Hope to see more.
Once you get a few more maps together in this style you should post them in a facebook album at a new FB page that is bringing together artists and small publishers, the RPG Artists & Cartographers Showcase. It was created by Simon Powell aka "Digger" and is getting a lot of attention.

These look quite good indeed Geamon. I agree with Bogie's assessment, the the maps have are well-textured while remaining clear and playable. These are two great pieces for your portfolio.
Ah yes I like the stone / ground textures on the Legates Tomb, good job
Another rehash on an old map I made. Somehow during the process I lowered the memory foot print of GIMP from 2.5 GB to 1.5 GB.... Man I use to be terrible at layer management.
Edit: Woops forgot to turn on a layer.....

Roast Coffee Pairing #10: Raisin Coffee
Raisin coffee is a term for dry-processing, where the coffee is allowed to dry (partially or wholy) on the tree, before it is picked. It is only possible in a few coffee growing areas where the weather changes dramatically, where the dry season starts when the coffee is ripe on the tree. In the past, picking dried coffee from the tree was reserved for the end of the season, when all coffee cherries, ripe or not, dried or not, are "strip-picked" off the branches indiscriminately. This is called the Repela, or Rebusca in some places, the final harvest, and the quality of this coffee is very low. But a true Raisin coffee is picked with care, choosing only uniformily "tree-dried" cherries that have a raisin-like brown appearance. The cherries are then carefully sorted to remove defect or under-ripe coffee. A true Raisin coffee takes a lot of work. We have two lots from Brazil, one that is a special project on a designated plot of a larger fazenda, the Brazil Moreninha Formosa Raisin Coffee Microlot. The other is from a very large coffee farming operation, not a micro-lot at all: Brazil Ipanema Tree-Dry Process. The fruity flavors associated with tree-dry coffee, from the longer contact the fruit and skin has with the coffee seed inside, is much more apparent in the Moreninha, but both feature heavy body, low acidity, chocolate roast taste, and a very pleasurable tasting experience. As for the roast level, I really tried to push the Ipanema right up to the Full City+ level with a few snaps of second crack heard as the beans hit the cooling tray, this ended up being nearly 450 degrees by thermoprobe. For the Moreninha I wanted to ensure that the fruitiness was still evident so I ended those batches safely in the Full City range at 445 degrees. Since I was roasting slightly smaller batches than normal the roast times were right around 14 minutes.

Going forward, it will be D*'s receiver that they lease to you.
who's freakin dvr is it, anyway? between the 30-second commercial preview, and the "Space You Can't Use" feature, it really seems like D*'s decided to show us paying customers who's the boss.
D* is trying to ape TiVo and other perceived "industry leaders" to try to become an industry leader themselves. The rest of us know that the only way to become an "industry leader" is to deliver what people want.
TiVo doesn't lead any industry, but the perception is there because they offer a product that is relatively well though out, easy to use and relatively reliable. These are the lessons that D* needs to learn.

Papoose recently announced Remy Ma's release date during a performance.
"They locked my bitch up for six years," Papoose said during the show. "But guess what? July, she coming home."
Papoose further elaborated upon Remy Ma's release.
"July 30, y'all," Pap said. "It's goin' down for real...She took that bid better than I seen a lot of niggas take they bids. I was there every step of the way and she took that shit like a champ. We ain't glorifying that shit. Whatever happened happened. But it's an actual fact. She handled that shit like a real bitch."
In July 2012, Remy Ma spoke about being released from prison.
"Yeah, been a little minute," Remy said at the time. "Been almost five years that I've been gone. People had a lot of time to chill. It's almost over. I'm gonna be back like I never left."
In May 2008, Remy was sentenced to eight years in prison. The rapper was charged with shooting an associate, Makeda Barnes-Joseph. At the time, Remy reportedly spoke to the judge about her life. "I'm not a thug," she reportedly said. "I'm not a hard-core anything, I have feelings. I'm a wife, mother, daughter, big sister."
In April 2012, Pap spoke about Remy and how she inspires him. "It actually inspires me," Papoose said of Remy's incarceration. "It inspires me to do better, because that could be me in that situation. It could be you or anybody living in this country. None of us are exempt from that. It could happen to any one of us. Everybody that's incarcerated is not guilty."
(February 13)
UPDATE: Remy Ma's verified social media accounts have promoted Remy Ma's release from prison.
"1 Day and a wake up Left . #TeamRemyMa #TheRulersBack #RemysHome #RemyMa," her Instagram account said in a post made yesterday (July 30).

XXL reports that the "disciplinary problem was a phone violation involving a call to a third party."
The XXL report indicates Ma could be released from prison next week.
(July 31, 2014)

Sweet Maria's Weblog
cupped out
Ugh! It's not the quantity of coffee samples you cup each day ... sometimes it's all about the way you cup them. When coffee is really good, it demands your full concentration. I started this morning at 9 AM, but by 4 PM (with no breakfast or lunch, just some fruit and bread between rounds) I am flat out finished. In the early cuppings, I noticed the bowls were about half empty by the time the 4 cuppers were finished (Francisco Mena, the exporter with Exclusive Coffees; Tim O'Brien of Cafetin San Martin, one of the best farmer groups here, Myself, and Mary of Electric City coffee, from the hometown of Michael Scott). Anyway, by the time the last round came around, the bowls look barely touched. Everyone was "conserving their slurps". I have cupped way more samples than this in a day, but not with the intensity we all brought to this cupping. It's such a physical feat, and somewhat exploitative to use your palate this way. It becomes like a tool, like a hammer you are pounding all day until your wrist is sore. But the coffees this season are so good from Costa Rica, well, the boutique little micro-lots specifically. The crop volume is down, but some of these coffees are just spectacular. It could be the cumulative affect, but I think I scored more cups over 90 day than any I can remember. To keep it real, I will take green samples home and recup them in the comfort of my own lab, to make sure I wasn't suffering from traveler's euphoria (or caffeine-induced exuberance). On the flip side, it is great to be excited about CR again. To put it in perspective, this is an origin that had industrialized it's production, all coffees sold under generic mill marks, so much land planted in the awful super-productive Costa Rica 95 Catimor cultivar, that I had given up hope a few years ago. Anyway, be prepared for us to through a bazilion amazing Costa Rica micro-lots at you again this year, my apologies in advance. Helsar Del Zarcero Micro Mill:
Roast Coffee Pairing #8: Nutty Coffee!
Nutty Coffee! Are nuts good? Sure, but in coffee? Are nut flavors just a function of a lighter roast? Well, partially, but it's about the coffee too. And lots from very different origins have different types of nut flavors. For this selection, we chose two extremes, even though they are neighbors. The frigid, highest reaches of Bolivia (remember, La Paz is the world's highest capital city) are so extremely different than the warm, rolling plains of Brazil's Minas Gerais state, but both coffees have nutty character. And yet they display it in completely different ways against a completely different backdrop of flavors. This week we roasted Bolivia FTO SHG EP Caranavi and Brazil Cerrado DP Fazenda Aurea. Both coffees were kept light, in the City+ range. Each batch took about 15 minutes to roast and we used a profile that builds heat steadily through the first 2/3 of the roast cycle and then dialed it way down to ease through first crack. The Brazil was finished when the thermoprobe read 427-430 depending on the batch and the Bolivia finished a tad earlier around 425 degrees via thermoprobe. We were definitely trying to keep these coffees on the nutty side and stay away from the chocolate flavors that admittedly add a nice balance to both of these coffees when roasted to FC+ or therabouts. But we are nuts for light roasted coffee here at SM's (hee hee) and wanted to highlight the lovely, malty nuttiness in the Brazil, and the more floral, vanilla bean nutty flavor in the Bolivia. Hope you enjoy it; if you don't, you're nuts.
Off, Again
I am off for an action-packed pre-ship cupping trip of Central America - Panama, Costa Rica, Nicaragua in 7 days. Whew. Mostly, this is to select micro lots and cup coffees that are nearly ready to ship. It will be a lot of cuppings with farmers we already work with and coffee "projects" we set up before the season. One thing I can note here, we are going to cut back a bit on the dry-process Centrals this year. That was "so last season" as the kids say. We'll have them for sure, just not to the degree of 2008. It was fun to have that little dance with the devil, to cross the line into bright, clean, fruity, unconventional coffees, but I think we need to put the DP Central thing into it's correct place. We look to these countries for their beautiful, clean, bright wet-process coffees, not to compete with Harar and Yemen. Unless I can get some internet on the road, I leave you with this youtube gem, a student video from Syracuse U. reimagining coffee cupping as a kind of "Woody Allen in Sleeper/2001 A Space Odyssey" quality assurance lab flight-of-fantasy. It's a hoot: ... and check out the "video responses, hee-hee"
The Kenya Coffee Auction
I had some interesting footage of the Kenya auction, and the amazing sampling room upstairs. Yes, those auction sound effects are real! I did not dub in sound from a '70s PONG video game! -Tom


text: By Mark Christensen44th District, Neb. Legislature It was a cold and wet end to the week while representing the 44th District at the Capitol, but it is some much needed moisture for Nebraska. LB 44 was advanced on the floor on Thursday with a 30-2 vote. This bill deals with juveniles (under the age of 18) that have been convicted of murder and adds a minimum term of years for Class IA felonies. It will change the mandatory life sentence to 40 years to life, with eligibility for parole after 20 years. It also brings Nebraska Statute into compliance with a 2012 Supreme Court ruling. In the case of Miller v. Alabama, the ruling states that imposing mandatory life sentences without the possibility of parole on juveniles violates the Eighth Amendment of the U.S. Constitution. This doesn't mean that a juvenile, convicted of murder, cannot be given a life sentence. It means that the courts should examine all circumstances and allow for a minimum sentence, unlike the current Nebraska courts that are mandating sentencing of juveniles to life sentences without the possibility of parole. The introducer of LB 44,Senator Ashford of Omaha, is very committed to this issue and fighting for juveniles that deserve the possibility of a second chance. The Nebraska State Corrections Department has 282 inmates that were incarcerated while they were juveniles. Of those, 27 inmates committed the heinous crime of murder or some degree of murder and will be incarcerated for life, without the possibility of parole. One of those 27 inmates is an inmate from District 44 (Smithfield) that shot and killed his mother in 1993, at the age of 13 years old. He was found guilty of first degree murder and sentenced to life imprisonment. This young man has spent more than half his life behind bars. Do these inmates and juveniles convicted of murder, deserve a second chance? Can they be rehabilitated and become productive citizens in society? I chose not to vote the first round on this bill because I am still asking myself these questions. Juveniles are different from adults and the brain does not fully mature until a person is in their twenties. An adolescent tends to make decisions based on emotion and when there has been trauma or abuse their emotions are intensified. After more than half of a life incarcerated and with no support from family or friends, can someone come out of the prison system, and function as an adult? I am also taking into consideration the fiscal impact that incarceration has on our state. Studies show that a juvenile sentenced to life has an estimated cost of $2 million; as the inmate ages that cost goes up. I will continue to study this bill and I look forward to listening to debate when LB 44 comes up on Select File.

Does being fat give you the benifit of being a minority in hiring at a job? I am not making fun of fat people but it seems that at our office they made a hire based on the fact that this lady was a big lady and the company did not want to feel backlash over not giving her the job.
There were way better candidates who have way better credentials and they promoted this lady to a supervisor position. The only way we can fathom this is that they hired her so she could not sue and justify there hiring.
Were the other candidates women?
Being stupid isn't, so I don't know why being overweight would be - especially when a growing segment of the population is overweight.

There were other women who were more qualified and other men. No I was not invovled in the interview process. We have worked with all of these people for years. We know them. We know who does a good job and who does not. One of the candidates performed better at there current job and is an Army officer.
I am just curious. I know this thread will probably turn into the lowest common denominator but I am really curious. I don't know the rules HR has to follow.

I dunno, I see alot of stupid people in high power positions. They know something I dont.
I'm pretty sure that fat people are the majority... so shouldn't skinny people get the benefit by that reasoning?

My thoughts exactly. I should get a raise for not being a fatty.
What about connections? did she know someone that worked there? A lot of times that goes farther than being qualified or not...
I think this would be a rare exception. I think the opposite happens more often. People assume that fat people are lazy, which most of the time is true. I can say this because I'm fat.
Here ya go:
No federal laws against weight discrimination exist, although some cities, including Washington, D.C., and San Francisco, have banned discrimination locally. The Massachusetts Legislature had hearings last month on a proposed law.
How do you define 'fat'?
This is a veryyy stupid thread.

Sweet! I like bull #2. He's probably a toad now if he hasn't been killed.
In the off-season I always have mixed feelings about using trail cams......it just ethically wrestles with me. Then when I'm frustrated/tired and chasing them in Sept. I tell myself I'm going to take every advantage I can the next year Great pictures! Trail cam is on my gear want list.
ya i know what you mean... but after finding out how hard bowhunting is, im looking for any help i can get to get me a little bit of an edge lol
I think trail cams can almost be as much fun as hunting. You never know what you will get on film, and it is a great way to stay in shape, hiking in to check cameras.

Travelers can now navigate PDX a little easier, after Google released its first ever indoor mapping application for Android compatible devices, including an indoor map of PDX. With detailed floor plans of the airport now available, travelers can locate their boarding gates; find favorite restaurants and shops, and scout out other places of interest with ease.
The indoor map automatically appears when users view Google's map application on their Smartphone. If travelers are inside the terminal, the familiar "blue dot" icon shows their location in the building, and when they move up or down a level, the application updates to display which floor they're on.
The application maps out all the airline carriers, baggage carrousels and more. Google's implementation within the airport arena is similar to that of 'My Location' for outdoor spaces, but fine tuned for indoor areas.
The Port of Portland supported Google's efforts to map the public areas of the terminal building on Smartphones, to operate an airport system that satisfies the needs of the region, including customer service and dedication to its providers.

Wednesday News, May 23
Local Mental Health Services Out of Money
(Le Mars) -- With the restructuring of how mental health is being funded, and with an additional case load, the Plymouth County Board of Supervisors heard from Sharon Nieman, Plymouth County CPC and General Relief Director that additional funds would be needed to sustain services between today and the end of the fiscal year which is June 30th. This is the first time, the local mental health provider has ran out of allocated money.
Listen here
Nieman informed the supervisors that unfortunately, several counties are finding themselves in a similar position. She says Sioux County ran out of money two weeks ago. Nieman says her staff is implementing a waiting list for mental health patients.
Listen here
Plains Area Mental Health Center Executive Director Patrick Schmitz and Don Nore, the executive director with Life Skills Training Center both listened to Nieman explain the situation to the supervisors. Schmitz and Nore assured the supervisors that they would not turn anyone away, and in fact they would continue to provide services. The problem hinges on recent legislative action that placed some of the funding from the state and in the hands of the counties. Back in the mid 1990's State law was established forbidding counties the opportunity to raise the tax levy to finance mental health. Counties must have a separte levy to fund mental health services, and for Plymouth County, the levy is the lowest in the state per capita.
Listen here
That's good news for tax payers, but not very good news for mental health services. Many people are unaware of how much money is allocated to mental health. For many counties, including Plymouth, mental health services ranks second only to road and bridge maintenance in terms of a county expenses.
Supervisors Approve Deputies Salary Percentages
(Le Mars) -- The Plymouth County Board of Supervisors gave their approval to the county deputy salary percentages. Each deputy within the auditor's, treasurer, attorney, recorder, and sheriff's office was given a raise in pay, based in part on the number of years served and from a certain percentage of the elected county official's salary.
Le Mars Mainstreet Visits With Demographic Groups
(Le Mars) -- The Le Mars Mainstreet organization is looking at ways to improve the downtown district. During the past couple of days, consultants from the Mainstreet Iowa program were in town visiting with various demographic groups to help determine the needs of downtown Le Mars. Mary Reynolds, Le Mars Mainstreet coordinator explains the different demographics.
Listen here
Perhaps somewhat surprising, Reynolds says the three diverse and different demographic groups essentially identified the same things as what are the benefits of downtown.
Listen here
Reynolds says of the 10 students that participated in the downtown analysis, nine indicated after college, they would probably would like to live in Le Mars.
Grassley Questions Expensive Court Conference
(Washington) -- Iowa Republican Senator Chuck Grassley is questioning why an August conference for federal judges needs to be held at the Hyatt Regency Maui Resort and Spa located at Honolulu, Hawaii. The resort offers activities such as surfing lessons, snorkeling, yoga and Zumba.
Grassley and fellow Alabama Senator Jeff Sessions say it's "tone-deaf" to plan an expensive conference after the controversy surrounding the General Services Administration's lavish 2010 conference in Las Vegas.
The Hawaii Tourism Authority defends the islands as being a place to hold productive and quality meetings.
The 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals says lodging and airfare costs are comparable to mainland venues and government funds aren't to be used for recreational activities.
School Serves Recalled Lettuce
IOWA CITY, Iowa (AP) - Lettuce that had been recalled over fears of listeria contamination was served at Iowa City Community School District schools.
The district says in a news release that officials were notified about the recall on Monday, after much of the lettuce had already been served. The rest won't be used.
Federal authorities say there have been no reported illnesses associated with the voluntary recall by River Ranch Fresh Foods, of Salinas, Calif.
Symptoms of listeria infection include high fever, headache and neck stiffness.

Hey All,
I'm originally from Casper, and after 3-1/2 years in Alaska, I'm moving back to Wyoming, only this time Cheyenne. What are everybody's thoughts, opinions, knowledge, etc. of the Cheyenne area for hunting goats, mulies, and coyotes? It looks like it's a lot of private land, but I do see some Walk-in areas around. Never hunted around Cheyenne, so I don't know much about the area.

Nassau needs an assessment commission

It is perhaps the worst-kept secret in Nassau County: The property assessment system is broken. The county owes hundreds of millions of dollars in tax refunds, the result of successful assessment challenges by residential and commercial property owners, and county officials have tried, and failed, multiple times to fix the system.

It appears that we will be able to shoot wolves in Wyoming come Oct 1.
Bout freakin time
Ya, 5 years and thousands of elk later. Kill'em all, and let god sort em out.
I just saw that article on Yahoo today! I have been way behind lately on wolf news and I am sorry to say have not been on my game in lobby efforts.
However that aside, WAY TO GO WYOMING!!! Shoot on site is one nice way to get her done! State has to manage numbers in the National parks where hunters are not allowed, and the rest of the state is a shoot on sight predator option.
Now if other states would just open up to the idea, we would have the control back on these buggers in a short order.
I hunt because......
Way to go Wyoming !!
Go get'em guys!
Thanks to gov mead for his hard nosed stand on this issue.

Cyclones Tie Nebraska, First Tie in School History
LINCOLN, Neb. – The Iowa State Cyclones (0-0-1, 0-0 Big 12) opened their season in Lincoln, Neb. this morning in bizarre fashion. After the scores were tallied, the competition ended in a 150-150 tie. The 40th meeting between the Cyclones and the Cornhuskers marked the first tie in Iowa State School history.
"We expected this to happen," Iowa State head coach Duane Sorenson said. "It was a typical Iowa State-Nebraska competition. We have been doing the same thing for the past six or seven years."
After Nebraska claimed the first two events of the morning, Iowa State took first, second, and third in the 200 freestyle as Katie Vollhaber, Sarah Deis, and Brooke Evensen touched with times of 1:53.93, 1:54.69, and 1:55.44, respectively. The Cyclones freestylers were motivated by freshman teammate Karyl Clarete who was out touched by Nebraska's Bailey Pon in the 1000 freestyle by less than .4 seconds after a near comeback effort.
"The race that really got the team going was the 1000 freestyle when Karyl came from almost a body length down with a 100 to go to almost win the 1000," Sorenson stated. "Even though she didn't win, that really inspired her teammates. Then we turned around and took first, second, and third in the 200 [freestyle]."
The Cyclones trailed a tight race by a score of 68-63 when competition moved to the diving well. The Huskers captured momentum on the boards by claiming the top three finishes in both the 1-meter and the 3-meter events. In the 13th event of the dual, Nebraska again finished first, second, and third by taking the top three times in the 100 butterfly.
The Cyclones needed strong performances in the final two events, 200 IM and 400 medley relay, to remain in the competition.
"The reality is, we had to go one-two-three in the 200 IM, which we did, and we had to go one-three in the relay, which we did, to get the tie," Iowa State assistant head coach Kelly Nordell said. "Our backs were up against the wall and we performed."
Deis led the charge in the 200 IM touching with a time of 2:07.93. Finishing in second and third were teammates Marissa Engel and Imelda Wistey with times of 2:09.04 and 2:09.20, respectively. Before the 200 IM, Sorenson told his team exactly what they had to do in order to get back into the meet.
"He told us that we had to go one-two-three, and I thought we can do this," Deis said. "We have a really great IM group, so there was no doubt in my mind that we could do it."
In the final event, Iowa State's 400 medley relay team consisting of Amanda Paulson, Elizabeth Kleiner, Clarete, and Vollhaber took first with a time of 3:28.89. Taking third place in the event were teammates Evensen, Savanna Townsend, Alex Gustafson, and Hayley Krzeczowski with a time of 3:34.30. Iowa State's first and third-place finishes in the 400 medley relay ultimately pushed the dual to a tie.
In the 50 freestyle, Amanda Paulson racked up her 18th career victory in the event with a time of 23.72. As a junior, Paulson is a two-time ISU most valuable swimmer and the school record holder in the 50 freestyle.
"We expect her to win, but we know that she is just so competitive," Nordell commented. "She is going to push herself and do whatever she can. She is the one who stays after [practice] to work on her starts and to work on her turns. She takes a lot of pride in being the fast female in the pool."
ISU diving coach Jeff Warrick is very pleased with his team's performance this morning. With his top two divers coming off of injury, Elyse Brouillette (shoulder) and Jessica Henderson (head), and freshman Julie Dickinson competing in her first collegiate event, today was a great opportunity to evaluate his team.
"We definitely learned some things from this meet," Warrick said. "And that's what we are going to be talking about this week in practice; making those adjustments."
Brouillette, who did not anticipate participating in the 3-meter event due to her shoulder injury, finished in fourth with a score of 260.02.
Next Friday, the Cyclones travel to Brookings, S.D. to square off against the Fighting Jackrabbits of South Dakota State. The dual is schedule to begin at 6:00 p.m.

Hi guys,
I know there are a lot of stuff to migrate ZCS to ZCS like zExtras, but mosts of them can be installed in a ZCS6.0 or higher versions.
I have a ZCS5, and recently installed the latest ZCS8.
Can you please help migrating this.
I do not have a lot of mailboxes, but they re quite big.
SO, if I have to recreate some account manually, it's possible. By the way, it's cool if I can migrate Birefcases, but if not possible, I can also go without.
Thanks a lot in advance.

ADA, Ohio -- A university in northwest Ohio will lower tuition for the next academic year to what students paid prior to the recession.
Ohio Northern University on Thursday announced it will cut the sticker price to college for new students by 20 to 25 percent.
Tuition for existing students will be frozen for next year at 2013-2014 rates. The university's president Daniel DiBiasio says the conventional high-tuition, high-financial aid model is not sustainable.
The school also kicked off a four-year graduation guarantee in most undergraduate programs.
Students who meet certain expectations, but aren't able to graduate in four years will receive a semester for free.
Ashland University in northeast Ohio announced a similar initiative in August. The announcements come after a summer pitch by President Barack Obama to overhaul federal student aid.

A rather large update for the PokeRep today: you can now view images of each Pokemon from all generations of Pokemon RPGs. In addition, you will also hear the Pokemon cry when you check its entry. I will eventually be adding mini icons too. This is all thanks to Veekun, who has generously given us permission to use his content.
I will soon be restoring Pokemon name etymologies, which a few of you have asked about. Currently, I'm working on displaying evolution chains and attack data. Enjoy what we have now and dream of what will come tomorrow!

Bjorn Borg is over Roger Federer and he's not afraid to show it.
The legendary Swede has shockingly put Roger Federer as his third favorite at next week's Championships behind Rafael Nadal and Novak Djokovic, respectively. "I pick Rafael Nadal as the winner. My second choice is Novak Djokovic, and my third choice is Roger," said the 5-time Wimbledon champion.
And why, might you ask, did the Swede make such a public claim?
A year ago, I would have had Roger as my favourite, but that was then. Nadal and Djokovic are playing much better tennis than they were a year ago. I think that Roger is going to be the No 1 player at the end of the year anyway. But for him to beat those guys at Wimbledon, he needs to play much better than he did last summer. He knows that he is going to have to play some unbelievable tennis to win again. This is the most open Wimbledon in years.Bjorn also said he wouldn't be surprised if the top-ranked Swiss followed his lead and hung up his Wilson racquets early, even by next year:
I think Roger will probably carry on playing tennis, but if he retired next year that wouldn't surprise me. He has been through so much, he has done so much, he has been professional, he's been working hard, he's been winning everything. It probably won't happen, but if Roger suddenly decides to retire that wouldn't shock me at all. People expect Roger to win the whole time, and that's both mentally and physically tiring. It's not going to be like it used to be, when he won almost every single match he played. That time has gone.Has Bjorn lost his marbles or is he still reeling from the embarrassment of publicly choosing Fed as his pick for the Roland Garros title on the eve of that match? He picks Fed to win on his least favored surface then picks him to come in third where he's a 5-time defending, grass-loving champion.
It seems like passive-aggressiveness and/or fair-weather fandom. Either way, that sucks Bjorn.

Explore the Entrepreneurship.org Resource Center to find resources. Designed with entrepreneurs in mind, our resource center allows you to find materials to grow great ideas.
Crowdfunding is a hot topic in the entrepreneurship space these days. Many startups are asking about it, and are trying to decide if seeking funding from the crowd is the right for their company. Sensing this demand, we hosted a three hour event on the subject a few days ago which you can view here and here.
People everywhere. Parties that seem to be on continuous loop all day. Vendors marketing new ideas, new startups or new swag everywhere you go. And then there's the conference with its many speakers presenting on topics ranging from anything to everything. With 30,000 people in attendance, the South By Southwest Interactive Conference can be overwhelming. So from a recent SXSW newbie to you, here are three questions to ask yourself when preparing to attend SXSW 2015.
Going global is on the wish list of many U.S. entrepreneurs, especially given the sour American economy. But how to go about it? One leading venture capitalist offers some clues.
With 1 Million Cups, as with any startup, our tendency is to put our best foot forward. We spend a lot of time talking about all of the great successes that we've had over the past year--and there have been many. But one of the things that makes our program special is that sense of having a safe space to share what you haven't done well and what you're struggling with on a day-to-day basis.
Publicity is good for an early-stage company, but you shouldn't be pumping lots of dollars into public relations for your new healthcare business. Read more about the right time to hire a PR agency.
You don't need to spend countless hours in a classroom, or have an MBA to become a successful entrepreneur. Entrepreneurs often don't have the time or patience to sit through a semester long class or six-week course in order to retrieve the answer to a question they have now--today. They need help quickly and efficiently. And this is where our idea for Founders School started.
Strategic words are out. Personal search is in. This week, the Kauffman Foundation held a seminar on "Online Branding for Startups" with help from Mark Traphagen of Virante, a SEO marketing firm out of Durham, N.C. I learned a number of things in the hours we discussed branding with entrepreneurs and Kauffman associates, but here are my top four takeaways.
Leaving presentations to chance is like embarking on a trip without a map (hat tip to Amanda Schnieders for the metaphor). If you don't know where you're headed and how you'll get there, you may not reach your destination.
"No business plan survives first contact with customers," Steve Blank says. What? Isn't the point of planning that you maximize the likelihood of success in the marketplace? Well yes, but perhaps not the kind of planning you might be thinking about. A business plan conceived on paper, powered by a great idea or invention, enhanced by research on the size of the market and a customer profile, has great potential. But it also has a crucial flaw.

Advanced Legal Research (6370)
Advanced Legal Research covers both federal and Michigan legal research resources. A host of formats and databases will be taught, to include Westlaw and LexisNexis (new and traditional interfaces), other popular subscription databases, free legal Websites, and print resources (when required by law firms).
Students will become proficient in cost-effective research as well as how to effectively use a combination of online and print resources (integrated research). Emphasis will be placed on developing a research plan. Legal resources that will be taught include secondary sources, case law and digests, statutes, administrative law, court rules, court and practice forms, citator services, mass-citator services, ordinances, and legislative histories.
As this course relies heavily on the completion of hands-on exercises, students must own a laptop or loan one for the semester. Students are required to bring a laptop to every class -- no exceptions. In addition, there is a live final exam that requires the use of a laptop. Not having a laptop for the final exam will result in a zero grade for the exam.
Prerequisites are Law 1080 ALTA OR Law 1070 Legal Writing and Research.
The course is restricted to 16 students.
