Retiring office manager Sharon Lipe helps celebrate Saluki win.
Nov. 17, 2013
By Tom Weber
CARBONDALE, Ill. - You couldn't ask for a more gratifying win for the Saluki football team than Saturday's comeback 24-17 victory over Illinois State.
1. Playing without their starting quarterback and All-American tight end, and coming off a devastating loss to Missouri State last week, the Salukis appeared sapped of energy while falling behind 17-10 in the first half. Freshman quarterback Ryan West was playing like a freshman.
2. The turning point in the game was a series of questionable calls that went against the Salukis early in the third quarter. First, LB Carl Bivens was flagged for roughing the punter. The video board replay seemed to show Bivens did not make contact. On the next play, SIU was hit was two unsportsmanlike conduct penalties for pushing and shoving after the play. Again, the replay board provided fans a clear look at the action, and they were furious with the call. The 45 yards of penalties lit a fire under Southern's fans and its team.
3. Although some have maligned Southern's attendance the last two weeks (announced crowds of 5,642 for Missouri State and 5,885 for Illinois State), the fans at yesterday's game were a tremendous 12th man. They were small in number but large in enthusiasm. These were hard-core Saluki fans who wouldn't miss a game no matter what the calendar says or what the temperature is. There was a long line of fans outside the stadium high-fiving players on their way to the locker room after the game.
4. RB Ken Malcome had his best game since transferring to SIU from Georgia. He had 16 carries for 54 yards -- both career highs -- and two touchdowns. Malcome is the big power back who is supposed to get Southern the tough yardage between the tackles. Yesterday he did just that, helping Southern's offense grind out second-half yardage.
6. After a difficult first half, freshman Ryan West came back and played a solid second half. He made a beautiful deep sideline throw to LaSteven McKinney to set up one touchdown. His bootleg at the end of the game also sealed the victory.
7. Senior Day is always an emotional day. It appears unlikely Southern will make the playoffs, even if it improves to 7-5 with a win at Indiana State, because power rankings will not factor into at-large consideration this season. That means SIU's seniors have likely played their last home game. It's a shame that guys like Kory Faulkner, Bryan Presume, John Lantz, Austin Pucylowski, Terrell Wilson and Ray Agnew and the rest of the senior class will not get to experience the excitement of a playoff game during their careers.
8. The men's basketball team is 0-2, but you can't fault their effort in two hard-fought losses to Missouri and Saint Louis. They have a bona fide star in Desmar Jackson. If the complementary pieces fall into place, they should enjoy success as they head into the less rigorous part of the non-conference schedule. We'll know a lot more about this team after it completes an upcoming 11-day stretch in which it will play six games. These are all highly winnable games.
9. Of all the newcomers, I've been most impressed with F Bronson Verhines. Here you have a 23-year-old guy who has bounced from Kaskaskia College to Rend Lake College to SIU. No one else considered him a Division I prospect. Yesterday, he played the majority of the game at the center position, even though he stands 6-foot-6 and weighs 200 pounds. His opponent stood 6-foot-11, but Verhines he grabbed 11 rebounds and scored nine points. He's a smart kid who seems to squeeze the most out of his ability.
10. The same energy that Saluki fans brought to Saluki Stadium was on display at SIU Arena. With about eight minutes to go, the Salukis had cut a 10-point deficit to two, and the place was rocking. Saluki fans are hungry for a winner.
11. I don't know what to make of the officiating so far. Yesterday's game versus SLU seemed like business-as-usual. Then I look at the box score of the Missouri State-Tulsa game and see there were 63 fouls and 87 free throws.
12. The Valley picked up its first big non-conference win today when Indiana State beat No. 21 Notre Dame. The league is 14-10 against Division I opponents so far with Bradley, Wichita State, Missouri State, Evansville and Indiana State a combined 12-1.

Voles drive gardeners and homeowners crazy! Find out how to identify and get rid of them.
How to Identify Voles in your Garden
We're talking voles, NOT moles. Voles are small rodents similar to field mice. They have small rounded ears, small eyes, and short tails. You'll know voles by the snake-like tunnels that you'll see all over your lawn. They're very active in the spring and then their manic tunneling subsides.
Voles love fields with lots of weeds and coverage. They are active both day and night, especially evening and early morning hours. They love to burrow underground and will eat bulbs and root vegetables. If you have partially eaten carrots, potatoes, etc., you may have a vole problem. They also nest at the base of trees and shrubs which can cause damage to the roots, especially as they tend to chew the bark.
How to Get Rid of Voles
Here are a few tips for getting rid of voles. Try some of these methods for your garden:
- Voles like dense, heavy vegetative cover, mulch, and weeds because it provides them with food and protects them from predators. Make your yard inhospitable to voles! Cut back brush, mow, weed, and create a clean space.
- Try live traps near mole runways or the nesting sites at the base of trees and shrubs. Bait traps with peanut butter. Set baits midday to early evening when voles get more active. Reset the traps as often as necessary until you eliminate the population. Relocate voles to a faraway field. The key to trapping is persistence.
- If you have an extreme problem, you can bait voles with a registered rodenticide. Consult your local garden center or professional critter control agency.
- Voles in the veggie garden? These little critters aren't very good climbers. Protect a garden by fencing the area with a half-inch of mesh, at least 12 inches above the ground and buried 6 to 10 inches deep.
- Bulb control? You can discourage voles from nibbling on bulbs by adding gravel to the planting hole (surrounding the bulbs). When you plant bulbs, drench or powder them with a fungicide to keep voles at bay.
- Another great control method is an outdoor cat.

Attention Deficit Disorder and Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder is a biological condition that is accompanied with poor attention and being easily distracted and that may or may not be characterized with hyperactivity and impulsive behaviors. ADD/ADHD is one of the most common mental conditions that affect approximately 2 million children in the U.S. It is possible that these children will never out grow this condition and their ADD/ADHD will continue into adulthood. Children that suffer from this condition should seek treatment right away. If left untreated, poor grades, poor social skills and low self esteem may develop.
Although the exact cause of ADD/ADHD is unknown, it is believe that genetics and heredity plays a part. Constant exposure to low levels of lead, being born premature, difficulties in childbirth and exposure to cigarette smoke from the pregnant mother may cause children to be at greater risk for developing this condition. Ritalin LA works by affecting certain chemicals in the brain that are linked to both hyperactivity control and impulse control.
Children with ADHD often seem to be very fidgety, hyper and have impulsive behavior. They tend to blurt out things and interrupt others while they are talking. Waiting for their turn can be a very difficult task. In addition they have trouble sitting still and they talk excessively.
Stimulants have been found to work very well in treating ADD/ADHD symptoms. Ritalin LA is a stimulant medication that is widely used to treat ADD/ADHD. Ritalin LA is a long acting version of the prescription medication Ritalin. Ritalin LA is available in 10, 20, 30 and 40 mg capsules. If your child has difficulty swallowing the Ritalin LA capsule, the capsules can be opened and the contents may be sprinkled onto food. In addition to taking Ritalin LA to treat ADD and ADHD, they will require some sort of therapy.
Less serious Ritalin LA side effects include:
- Nausea
- Vomiting
- Decreased appetite
- Dizziness
- Headache
- Stomach pain
- Nervousness
- Insomnia
- Weight loss
Some more serious Ritalin LA side effects include:
- Feeling faint
- Increased heartbeat
- Fever and sore throat accompanied with a severe skin rash
- Aggression
- Hallucination
- Twitching
- High blood pressure
If you experience any of the more serious Ritalin side effects or if you have an allergic reaction to Ritalin LA, such as swelling of the face, mouth or throat, seek immediate medical attention. For more ADD information, please visit www.add.org
At FreemedPrograms.com, you may be eligible to receive free Ritalin LA. Pharmaceutical companies have designed free medication programs for individuals that are unable to afford their prescription medication. In addition to free Ritalin LA, there are about 1,000 other prescription medications that are available for free or at a significantly reduced cost. If you are among the millions of Americans that are struggling to afford your prescription medications, FreeMedPrograms.com may be your ticket to free Ritalin LA and many other prescription medications.

Under current law, total funding for child nutrition programs will grow from $20 billion in 2013 to $29 billion in 2023, CBO projects. That rise largely reflects projected increases in food prices and thus the cost per meal, although the number of meals served by those programs is also expected to grow. The School Breakfast Program is projected to see the fastest growth, because CBO expects that more schools will participate and will implement policies that make it easier for eligible children to take part in the program.
For more detail on CBO's most recent projections for child nutrition programs, see Child Nutrition Programs—February 2013 Baseline.

|Vandals host TXST on senior day
MOSCOW - The Idaho women's basketball team will have the opportunity to get back to .500 for the season when it hosts Texas State at 6 p.m. on Saturday.
The Vandals enter the game with a 13-14 overall record and a 10-6 mark in Western Athletic Conference play. Texas State is 9-17 on the season and 3-12 in the WAC.
Saturday's game is Senior Night for Idaho, as it is the final home game of the season. Seniors Jessica Graham and Ana Overgaard will be making the final home appearances of their careers.
Graham, a post who has been in the program for five seasons, is averaging 7.3 points and 4.2 rebounds per game during WAC play. The post from Ripon, Calif., is having her best season after battling several knee injuries during her five-years in Moscow.
Overgaard, who has evolved from scout-teamer to walk-on to scholarship player during her four years in the program, has appeared in eight games off the bench for Idaho this season, and has scored three points and added five rebounds. The Weiser, Idaho native is a third-generation Vandal athlete.
The Bobcats are led by Diamond Ford, the WAC's leading scorer who averages 21.2 points per game. Ashley Ezeh, who has missed eight games this season, recently returned to Texas State's lineup. She averages 15.4 points and 9.1 rebounds per game. Texas State has lost five of its last six games, including three in overtime. The Bobcats' last two games have been overtime losses, a 78-76 defeat at Houston Baptist and a 73-71 defeat at Seattle U. Texas State is just 3-14 in its last 17 games after starting the season by winning six of their first nine games.
Five Idaho players scored in double figures and the Vandals shot 45.5 percent from the field and 43 percent from 3-point range en route to a 72-60 win in San Marcos on Jan. 24 in the only previous meeting between the Vandals and Bobcats.. Alyssa Charlston scored 14 points for Idaho, Christina Salvatore scored 13, Connie Ballestero scored 11 and Ali Forde and Krissy Karr each added 10. Graham added nine points in the game for Idaho. The Vandals also owned a 51-38 rebounding advantage.
Fans who can't make it to the Cowan Spectrum for Saturday's game can catch the action on KMAX 840 AM with pregame starting at 5:45. Live audio and video streams, as well as live stats will be available at www.GoVandals.com during the game.
Idaho wraps up the regular season at Seattle U on March 9 before heading to the WAC tournament in Las Vegas, Nev., March 12-16.

Good But Heavy!
By Joe The Old Guy!
from Primary Chicago, Il. Suburb
I purchased to use on short State Park Hikes and Longer National Park Canyon Land Hikes. Should work fine but currently concerned about weight, case and straps quality. A more robust lightweight case possible with belt and carry strap features would add value to this product without adding much cost.
Bottom Line No, I would not recommend this to a friend

I have not been able to attach the strap as the space is too narrow. I'm trying to find a clip to use instead. Otherwise this is a good product. Can see clearly.
I will be returning these binoculars
By Jody
from West Hartford, CT
I just boxed these up to be returned to NG. I ordered two pair and both had water drip stains inside the lens that cannot be wiped away. One pair had a broken cap on the center shaft that covers the threaded end piece. They are heavy, hard ot adjust, and the eye cups are stiff. The rubber protectors on the far side of the lenses fall off easily. The first day we got them we took them on an eagle watching cruise and ended up using the guides' glasses. I definitely would not recommend them to anyone.

Great binoculars BUT
By Karen
from Newberg, Oregon
The binoculars are great. The first pair had to be returned, however, because it was impossible to put on the neck strap. There was no space at all in the slit for the neckband to be put through. You couldn't even see light through the space. The second pair we finally got the neck band on, but it was still extremely difficult and took over an hour of steady work. THAT REALLY NEEDS TO BE FIXED!

Swimming And Diving Breezes Past Butler
Nov. 15, 2003
Chicago, Ill.- The UIC men's and women's swimming and diving teams scored dominating victories over Butler on Saturday in a Horizon League dual meet at the UIC Natatorium.
UIC's women's squad (4-2, 2-2 Horizon League) bowled over the Bulldogs with a 134-73 win, while the Flames' men's team (4-1, 3-1 Horizon League) toppled Butler's men, 126-77. The Flames were in control the entire time against the thin squads of the Bulldogs, who did not compete in the diving portions of the meet.
Freshmen turned out to be the keys to a team win for the Flames' women. Newcomers Kelly Hyatt, Jessica Darud, Carlie Schoaf and Emily Biancalana combined for five first-place finishes on Saturday. Hyatt won two events to lead the women, taking the 50-yard freestyle in 25 seconds and the 100-yard butterfly in 1:00.31.
Veteran juniors Christine Hare (200-yard freestyle) and Alicia Perry (200-yard IM) were also individual winners for the Flames.
For the men, senior Enric Claret followed up his spectacular performance at the UW-MIlwaukee Quad Meet on November 8th with another marvelous showing. Claret, the reigning Horizon League Men's Swimming and Diving Athlete of the Week, took the 200-yard freestyle in 1:45.41 and placed second in the 100-yard butterfly behind teammate Kris Simos.
UIC's men were also paced by sophomores Ari Bernstein, LeRoy Stevens and Bill Hare, who each scored individual wins on the day.
The Flames treated the last six events of the meet as exhibition heats after the victories were in hand.
The UIC men's and women's swimming and diving teams will return to action next Saturday, November 22nd as the Flames host Western Illinois and Saint Louis in a three-team meet at the UIC Natatorium. Start time is 1:00 p.m.

This was a special teacher workshop inspired by the Rolling Stones and their musical roots. Teachers learned how to connect their classroom curriculum to the artistry of the Stones by examining the history of the American roots music that inspired them.
Teachers of younger students were invited to join us for a special workshop exploring strategies for using rock and roll and popular music in K-4 classrooms. Participants worked through examples from Rockin' the Schools classes that explore music and the language arts, the building blocks of music, and the roots of rock and roll (among other topics). Teachers found out how they can connect the sounds and stories of rock and roll to their K-4 teaching curriculum.
The worlds of classical music and rock and roll are often seen in opposition to each other when in fact, composition, arrangement and performance techniques of both styles often influence the other. In this special Teachers Rock co-hosted by the College Orchestra Directors Association (CODA), Rock Hall educators Jason Hanley and Kathryn Metz presented class material from "Ambassador to the Orchestra: The Arranger in Rock and Roll." The class was followed by arrangements of songs by the Beatles, Simon and Garfunkel and others performed by by the Oxford Chamber Orchestra, The Mergers (Miami University) and Northern Kentucky University Ensemble.
The College Orchestra Directors Association is dedicated to the promotion and advancement of college and university orchestra programs through the collaborative assistance, insights, knowledge, creativity, resources and shared vision of its members. CODA champions the art of teaching and performing orchestral music and strives to encourage and support the artistic, professional and personal growth of college orchestra directors and their students. The association serves as an advocate for the crucial dual roles of the orchestra in the higher education community; namely, providing an essential component in the development of educated students of all majors, and refining the vocational and personal skills required of those preparing for various careers in music and other disciplines.
We hosted a special workshop inspired by the inventive wordplay of our 2012 American Music Master honoree – Chuck Berry, with guest presenters Amy Rosenbluth (Lake Erie Ink) and Kathy Lawrence (Cleveland Heights High School). Teachers learned how to bring spoken word and slam poetry into the classroom to help students connect with learning and with themselves. This workshop was appropriate for upper-elementary through high school teachers (Grades 4-12). Read more about this Teachers Rock here.
This special workshop spotlighted Voice Your Choice projects from throughout Ohio, across the country, and around the world. Participants leanred how students of all ages addressed issues involving aesthetic reflection and aesthetic judgment and the challenges of evaluating and critiquing rock and roll. Participating Voice Your Choice teachers showcased their students' work and shared their strategies and approaches to the project. Educators were invited to stay after the workshop for an exclusive look at the new exhibit – Grateful Dead: Long, Strange Trip (official opening: April 12, 2012). Participants toured the exhibit and enjoyed the opening reception.

2011 Alumni Award Recipients
Black Hills State University honored four BHSU alumni during the annual Alumni Awards Luncheon on Friday, September 9, at 12:00 p.m. in the Jacket Legacy room of the David B. Miller Yellow Jacket Student Union. Those honored this year were, left to right: Darla (Talty) Crown, Class of '80, Special Achievement Award; Dr. Barry Jankord, Class of '82, Excellence in Education Award; Dr. George Rinker, Special Service Award; and Charles "Chuck" Sederstrom Jr., Attended, Distinguished Alumnus Award.
Command Chief Warrant Officer Darla J. (Talty) Crown, Class of '80, enlisted in the United States Army, Women's Army Corp, in 1973 after graduating from Wall High School. Upon her honorable discharge from active duty, she immediately joined the South Dakota Army National Guard. She earned her bachelor's degree in elementary education from BHSU and began teaching math and science at the junior high level. After receiving her master's degree in education and science, she worked as a counselor, sales and marketing professional, and development officer.
Last spring the South Dakota National Guard welcomed Darla as the first female Command Chief Warrant Officer during a ceremony honoring the transfer of authority. She oversees recruiting, morale, education, promotions, retention and Warrant Officer career development.
Responsibilities in her career have included: being assigned as a personnel officer in a field artillery brigade, instructing leadership and land navigation for the Officer Candidate School, and serving as a Casualty Notification Officer. In addition to her active duty time from 1973-76, she also served on active duty during Desert Storm and Operation Iraqi Freedom.
Darla was named the Girl Scouts "Woman of Distinction" and received the Rapid City Chamber ATHENA Award, for her contributions to the support and development of women in leadership roles. Just as she has been inspired, mentored, and encouraged by other men and women in uniform, Darla hopes to serve as a role model to inspire, mentor, and encourage others to set their goals high, work hard, and reach for their dreams.

Deborah Ann Harry, vocalist for Blondie, is born in Miami, Florida.
Chris Stein, guitarist with Blondie, is born in Brooklyn, New York.
Bassist Nigel Harrison of Blondie and other bands is born in England.
Keyboardist Jimmy Destri of Blondie is born in Brooklyn, New York.
Gary Valentine, the original bassist for Blondie, is born.
Clem Burke, the drummer for Blondie, is born in New York.
Capitol Records releases the self-titled album by Wind in the Willows, a folk-rock group that includes future Blondie frontwoman Debbie Harry.
The first edition of Blondie forms when Debbie Harry leaves the Stilettos, and takes the band, including guitarist Chris Stein, with her.
Blondie's lineup coheres as a quintet with singer Debbie Harry, guitarist Chris Stein, organist Jimmy Destri, drummer Clem Burke and bassist Gary Valentine. This group will record the albums Blondie and Plastic Letters (although Valentine will leave during sessions for the latter).
Blondie's self-titled debut album is released on the small Private Stock label. It contains such favorites as "X Offender" (issued as a single in May), "In the Flesh" and "Rip Her to Shreds." Blondie will be re-released on Chrysalis - the larger label to which they'll soon move - in September.
Plastic Letters, Blondie's second album, is released. Recorded during a period of transition, the album cover depicts Blondie as a foursome
The definitive Blondie lineup is realized as a sextet with the core of Harry, Stein, Destri and Burke joined by bassist Nigel Harrison and guitarist Frank Infante.
Blondie's "Denis" - a French-accented remake of Randy and the Rainbows' 1963 hit "Denise" - peaks at #2 in the U.K. as Plastic Letters enters the U.K. Top Ten.
Blondie is joined onstage at CBGB by Robert Fripp (of King Crimson) for an impromptu run-through of Donna Summer's "I Feel Love." The gesture presages their arty embrace of disco with "Heart of Glass" in the coming year.
Blondie's career-defining album Parallel Lines is released. The album will peak at #6 in the U.S and sell 7 million copies worldwide. "Heart of Glass" reached #1 in the U.S. and Britain, and there were four more hits here ("One Way of Another") and abroad ("Hanging On the Telephone," "Picture This" and "Sunday Girl"), as well.
"Heart of Glass," by Blondie, hits Number One on Billboard's singles chart. It effectively announces the commercial arrival of New Wave.
Eat to the Beat, Blondie's fourth album, is released. It will peak at #17 and yield the hit single "Atomic" (#39)
Blondie's "Call Me" tops the singles charts for the first of six weeks. It ties Kenny Rogers' "Lady" for the most weeks at Number One in this year.
Autoamerican, Blondie's fifth studio album, is released. It contains two Number One singles ("The Tide Is High" and "Rapture").
Autoamerican becomes the third Blondie album in a row - following Parallel Lines and Eat to the Beat - to be certified platinum (one million copies sold) by the RIAA.
"The Tide Is High," Blondie's remake of a song by the Paragons (a Jamaican group), reaches Number One.
Blondie's "Rapture," a groundbreaking mix of rock and rap, tops the singles chart for the first of two weeks. It is the group's fourth and final Number One single.
Blondie's "Island of Lost Souls" (from The Hunter) enters the Top Forty, where it will peak at #37. It is the thirteenth U.S. single from Blondie's first go-round as a group, marking the end of their three-year reign as the New Wave's most successful singles act.
The Ramones, Deborah Harry, and Talking Heads alums Jerry Harrison and the Tom Tom Club kick off their "Escape from New York" tour, revisiting the glory days of CBGB's.
Blondie -The Platinum Collection, a double-disc retrospective, is released. Its 47 tracks include early demos and remixes of "Atomic" and "Rapture."
Blondie kicks off a reunion tour in Stockholm, Sweden. Original members include Debbie Harry, Chris Stein, Jimmy Destri and Clem Burke - but not Frank Infante and Nigel Harrison, who will sue the band for $1 million.
"Maria," by Blondie, enters the U.K. singles chart at Number One, making them the first act to have chart-topping singles in three different decades.
No Exit, the reunited Blondie's first studio album since 1982's The Hunter, is released.
Best of Blondie receives its second platinum certification from the RIAA, signifying sales of two million copies. It is the top-selling album in Blondie's catalog.
Blondie is inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame at the 21st annual induction dinner. Shirley Manson of Garbage is their presenter.

GORE-TEX® Active Shell: Provides extreme breathability along with durable waterproof and windproof protection for all-weather, high-aerobic activities. It combines a lighter, thinner GORE-TEX® membrane, with fine denier performance textiles to deliver a streamlined three-layer construction. New for Spring '12, this brings a never-before-seen level of comfort performance to waterproof apparel.

I am looking for some good books related to science. Some examples I have read include The Immortal Life of Henrietta Lacks, Flavia de Luce Mysteries, good autobiographies (like Dark Matter, about Newton). I am looking for stories that have a lot of science in them. (not science fiction) Thanks. K

Thanks so much for this rec. Is there one book in particular you would recommend to start with? The description for Zodiac and The Cobweb look intriguing. I ordered the Systems of the World from my library.

I'd second Stephenson. The Baroque Cycle is about 17th scientists and has Newton as a character.
I should confess, I only made it through the first of the trilogy - Quicksilver - the book starts in 1713, shoots back to 1665 and 800 pages later has only made it back as far as 1689. I was a bit disheartened, or something - all that reading and I wasn't yet at the beginning of the story. Never quite got round to the next book.
But it was a really fabulous read, apart from one fairly distressing scene where they experiment on a dog - though, to be fair, it probably was drawn from life.
Edited to add - not fiction, but maybe worth mentioning, Queen of Science - personal recollections of Mary Somerville. I bought it because the bluestocking is such a stock character in Regency Romance that I thought it would be interesting to read about a real life example (she lived from 1780 - 1872) so I was reading it for the history really - I can't recall how much actual scientific content there was.

takes place between the present and WW2 and it's a stand alone.
Quicksilver, The Confusion, The Systems of the World
are three volumes of the
Baroque Cycle
and should be read in order.
Even though you are not wild about sci-fi consider
which is a science fiction/fantasy story set on parallel earth.

If you're looking for more nonfiction (based on your mention of The Immortal Life of Henrietta Lacks), Mary Roach writes books that are amazingly funny. I also like Diane Ackerman's books such as A Natural History of Love.

I was wondering about Mary Roach. I had seen her fun titles but wasn't sure what to expect. I ordered her Mars book from my library. The Natural History of Love is a unique concept I never had thought of before. Thanks for the recs.

Mary Roach writes incredibly witty books about science. I enjoyed Stiff, but I may just be excessively morbid. Bonk is far more entertaining. (Although it really makes you wonder about who volunteers for these studies about sex!)
I really enjoy books about medical history and can recommend some very good ones.
Atul Gawande has written several excellent books. His books Complications and Better are collections of essays he wrote for the New Yorker. They explore some of the intricacies and fascinomas of medicine is a very human way.
One of the best biographies I have ever read is My Own Country by Abraham Verghese. It focuses on the AIDS epidemic in eastern Tennessee.
I love this topic and would love to see other recommendations.

Emilie du Chatelet is a fascinating real person to read about. She lived during the Enlightenment. She was a brilliant mathematician and was mistress to Voltaire.
There are two good biographies about her - authors are Judith Zinsser and David Bodanis

Art met style at the Bass' A Night at the Museum fundraiser, which, this year, offered guests a preview of the much-awaited exhibition Vanitas: Fashion and Art. The event drew more than 500 attendees, all of whom were delighted to get a sneak peek at the show, which included everything from a velvet mirrored evening jacket by Elsa Schiaparelli to an exoskeleton-like dress by Iris van Herpen. Among those perusing the eye-catching works were Harold Koda, who curated the exhibit, museum director Silvia Karman Cubiñá, Paul and Trudy Cejas, Criselda Breene, Steven Rodriguez and Alan Randolph. –Photography by World Red Eye

Below is the video from an incredible performance by SBTRKT, which follows with our other favorite Coachella 2012 performances so far after the jump – Tune-Yards, Florence & The Machine, Frank Ocean, and The Black Keys.
Other performers this weekend included A$AP Rocky, AraabMUZIK, Azealia Banks, Beats Antique, Bon Iver, Dr. Dre & Snoop Dogg, Feist, Fitz and the Tantrums, Flying Lotus, Gary Clark Jr., Justice, Kaskade, Kendrick Lamar, M83, Metronomy, Nero, Radiohead, Santigold, Seun Kuti & Egypt 80, The Shins, The Weekend, Thundercat, and Wallpaper, to name just a little handful.

Reports have linked antiperspirant use to breast and prostate cancer due to their allegedly harmful aluminum content. Some reports also note that when the aluminum blocks your underarm axillary lymph nodes, it creates a buildup of hormones, which may also cause cancer.
While the looming threat of B.O. may deter you from ditching your Speed Stick, know you have some scent-bridling options that WON'T stop-up your natural detox process. In fact, many deodorants are safe, because a lot of them don't block your pores, they just mask your musk. However, that's only if they don't have the "antiperspirant" tag (or a long list of other chemicals).
I ditched antiperspirant six months ago, and smell no riper (and actually sweat less) than the next gal. It's because I use products like these:
Naturally Fresh Deodorant Crystal Spray, $3.99; Target
I spray this post-shower as my base barrier. Mentally, it makes me feel like I'm putting on an antiperspirant, so all day I don't worry about sweating. Plus, it's scentless, allowing you to get a good read on your own body odor, which on mild days, doesn't exist with this stuff. Just make sure you let your pits dry before dressing.
The Guv'ner Deodorant Powder, $9.95; lushusa.com
The slogan goes, "strong enough for the sweatiest man-pits," so on days where I know I'll be extra active, or wearing clothes I don't want to sweat much in, I go with this thicker, more absorbent, stronger-scented powder. Just make sure you rub it in well, so it doesn't come off on your clothing.
Pit Putty, $9.85; bubbleandbee.com
Ask anyone at Drum Circle; they'll tell you this stuff is the (local) gold standard when it comes to organic, vegan deodorants. Made from just arrowroot powder and essential oils, the putty works wonders on way-too-warm summer days.
I know, it's scary to make the leap from antiperspirant to deodorant, but trust me, you won't regret it—especially when you have the peace of mind that your body is being allowed to detox, and no excess hormones are getting traffic-jammed into your lymph nodes.

text: Nov 19, 2013 06:31 Stephanie Grace: Rants make mayor sound a bit GOPish Stephanie Grace: Rants make mayor sound a bit GOPish Stephanie Grace Aug. 18, 2013; 10:17 a.m. Comments About halfway through the first of New Orleans Mayor Mitch Landrieu's annual "budgeting for outcomes" community meanings, I briefly wondered whether I should check in on whether he'd decided to switch parties. Republicans routinely rail against all-powerful federal judges and unfunded mandates, but I can't think of a time when I've heard a Democrat pile on the way Landrieu did Tuesday night. In this case, though, Landrieu's diatribe had little do nothing to with ideology or partisanship and plenty to do with money — specifically, the cost of two massive federal consent decrees aimed at fixing unconstitutional practices at the New Orleans Police Department and the Orleans Parish Prison. Or make that "potential consent decrees," to hear Landrieu tell it, with perhaps more optimism than the situation warrants. Both documents have been approved by federal judges, Lance Africk in the prison case and Susie Morgan — who, ironically, landed the job on the recommendation of Landrieu's senator sister — for the police, although the city is pursuing appeals. Among the judicial decisions that the mayor predicted would "cramp my style" was Morgan's selection of the Justice Department's choice to monitor the police agreement, at a cost of $1.4 million more than the mayor's preferred firm's bid. For all of Landrieu's declared ambition to remake New Orleans, he spent a good deal of time at the public meeting pointing fingers, tamping down expectations and explaining zero-sum math. "If a federal judge this week orders us to pay the sheriff a bucketload of money," he told the Council District C residents who gathered for the first of five such meetings, which take place every year as the administration assembles its proposed budget, "it's the same dollar that we use to hire police officers and firefighters." "And so a federal judge might force you — because he can, because he's a federal judge and he's really powerful, and he can seize your assets — to take your money and move it out of the police department and fire department, safety and permits, recreation, and into the sheriff's office so that the sheriff can hire more deputies," Landrieu continued, in one of many similar riffs. "Because there's only a limited amount of money, and guess where it all comes from? Everybody should raise their hand, because it comes from you." While Landrieu aimed his harshest assessment Tuesday at the federal judiciary, Landrieu is actually fighting with all sorts of other officials these days. There's Sheriff Marlin Gusman, obviously, whom Landrieu accuses of wasting money at OPP and then expecting the city to bail him out; and there's the Justice Department, which started as Landrieu's friend in police reform but became a foe once it embarked on the prison consent decree simultaneously. Then there are the city's firefighters, with their hefty pension costs ("The money we spent on the firefighters' pension, we cannot spend to hire firefighters," Landrieu said Tuesday); the Wisner heirs, Landrieu's adversaries in a complicated legal battle over the proceeds of lucrative coastal land; Clerk of Criminal District Court Arthur Morrell, who has threatened to shut down courtrooms unless the mayor ups his budget; the judges at Civil District Court, who want to build their own new courthouse rather than join the city at the old Charity Hospital; and more. The trend is partly due to the mayor's combative style, but there's a also common theme: the high cost of running government, and particularly of fixing problems that have festered for decades. That's not Landrieu's fault, but it is his problem. And as he pointed out, when you're dealing with the federal government, "not having any money is not a defense." As budget season approaches, his blunt message for his constituents is that it's their problem too, one that they're likely to see reflected in some unappetizing choices. They're already seeing the effect in higher sewer and water fees. Responding to an angry question about those costs, Landrieu again blamed Washington. "The federal government and the EPA, just like with the Justice Department and the police, are coming down and saying, 'we are mandating that you do a certain thing, and guess what, you have to pay for it,'" he said. "Budgeting is not for the faint of heart," he warned. "For years and years and years we've kicked the can down the road. If it all comes due at the same time, it's hard." Hard for the politicians who will have to spend a lot of time saying no, particularly if the bills for the two big law enforcement consent decrees come due. And even harder for the constituents who will have to hear it. Stephanie Grace can be contacted at firstname.lastname@example.com. Get The Advocate in your inbox Subscribe

Our warmest fleece outer layer, the windproof R4® Jacket provides superior warmth and moisture management.
Polartec® Windbloc® fabrics block 100% of the wind and provides maximum protection from the elements. The soft hand, stretch, and DWR (durable water repellent) finish combine to make this the highest quality, most comfortable windproof fleece product on the market.
Polartec Windbloc fabrics incorporate a polyurethane barrier membrane that allows moisture vapor transmission while completely blocking wind and water, eliminating the need for an additional shell. This reduces the weight and number of layers needed to protect and insulate.
Polartec Windbloc is durable, quiet, and non-pilling, and has enhanced stretch and recovery, making it ideal for activities when movement is intermittent, and when cold and inclement weather demands high-performance outer protection.
Regulator® fleece insulation provides phenomenal compressibility, light weight warmth, and moisture transport, whether used alone or as part of a layering system.
The lofted hollow-core fibers of Regulator fleece insulation conserve body heat while allowing body moisture to wick uninhibited. They're also lightweight and highly compressible for packing.
Regulator Fleece Insulation provides exceptional breathability to keep you dry on the inside and while Regulator fleece provides the same amount of warmth as a much bulkier fleece, it does so with lighter, more compressible materials. Since you stay both dryer and warmer, you're able to maintain your comfort over a wide temperature range, which results in fewer layering changes and a lighter, less bulky pack.
We promote fair labor practices, safe working conditions and environmental responsibility throughout the Patagonia supply chain.

Princeton Heads To Rutgers To Play For the Meistrell Cup
The Princeton men's lacrosse team will make two road trips this week, totalling nearly 700 miles. The two opponents are a combined 4-16 overall and 0-7 in their two leagues.
Easy week? Hardly.
Both opponents are coming off solid performances this weekend, and both would like nothing more than to derail Princeton.
And the Tigers?
Princeton needs to get on the bus and face forward, not backward, since there is nothing the Tigers can do anymore about Saturday's tough loss to Syracuse.
The first 40 or so miles of the week will be up and back to Piscataway Tuesday night, where Princeton will take on a Rutgers team that is 2-9 overall and yet has only scored two fewer goals that it has allowed for the year. To the winner of that game goes, as it does every year, the Meistrell Cup. After that, it will be back in the Ivy League, beginning with a trip this weekend to Dartmouth.
* * *
The first men's lacrosse game in Princeton history was played in 1881. It was six years later that the game was first played by Rutgers.
Clearly, the sport didn't take at first on the banks of the Raritan, as RU dropped its team in 1889. Princeton gave up on lacrosse a little after that, in 1893.
It would take nearly 30 years and the work of one man to revive the sport on both campuses. Harland (Tots) Meistrell went from Erasmus Hall High School in Brooklyn to Rutgers in 1920, where he played varsity football as a freshman and also restarted lacrosse.
A year later, in 1921, he did the same at Princeton.
Today, he represents both schools in the U.S. Lacrosse Hall of Fame.
Since that 1921 season, Princeton and Rutgers have played every year except for the World War II seasons of 1944 and 1945. Since 1958, the winner of the game has received the Harland Meistrell Cup.
The 2013 meeting will be the 91st in the series, and Princeton brings a 58-29-3 lead into the game. The Tigers have won 24 of the last 25 meetings.
* * *
Princeton is 6-3 on the season, with three one-goal losses. Princeton had the lead in the fourth quarter of all three losses.
The Tigers fell 16-15 to North Carolina and 11-10 to Penn before this past Saturday's 13-12 loss to Syracuse. UNC is ranked ; Syracuse is ranked.
Princeton has played nine games, and four of them have been one-goal games, including the 10-9 win over Yale.
Speaking of close games, Rutgers has lost nine games, of which four have been by one goal and three have been by two goals. Of the four one-goal games, two have come in overtime.
For the year, Rutgers has scored 112 goals and has allowed 114.
* * *
Princeton is ranked ninth by the media and 10th by the coaches after being seventh and eighth last week. Syracuse was ranked eighth in both polls last week (tied with Princeton in the coaches' poll).
* * *
Jeff Froccaro comes into the Rutgers game having scored four goals in back-to-back games. It is the first time in his career that he has done so.
In fact, the last Princeton player with back-to-back four goal games was Mark Kovler, who had four goals against both Albany and Rutgers in 2009.
Should he get four more against Rutgers, Froccaro would be the first Princeton player since Jesse Hubbard to do so in three straight games. Hubbard scored five against Cornell, five against Rutgers and four against Dartmouth in three straight games in 1997.
* * *
Rutgers ranks second in Division I in face-off winning percentage, having won an incredible 66% of its face-offs (177 of 268). Joseph Nardella has won 174 of 262, for 66.4%.
Princeton has been on a face-off roll before the Syracuse game, where the Orange won 18 of 29. Princeton is just below .500, having won 110 and lost 114 face-offs for the season.
* * *
Tom Schreiber, who had a goal and three assists against Syracuse, leads the team in points (37) and assists (19) and is third in goals (18). Schreiber led the team in goals and assists each of his first two years.
The junior has at least three points in every game this year and in his last nine games dating back to last year. He has at least three points in 31 of 38 career games.
His current streak of at least one point in 26 straight games is the longest active streak by a Division I midfiedler and the ninth-longest overall in Division I.
Schreiber is also the only midfielder in the top 10 in the Ivy League in goals and points.
Schreiber has six goals and four assists in two games against Rutgers. He had three goals and three assists as a freshman in the 11-10 win in the rain, wind and cold that forced the game to be moved to the turf practice field and then three goals and one assist in the 13-4 win over RU on Sherrerd Field at Class of 1952 Stadium last year.
* * *
Princeton has been in double figures in every game this year. It is the second-longest such streak to start a year in program history.
The only other time Princeton started a season with more consecutive games scoring in double figures was in 1951, when Princeton did so in all 10 games.
The longest streak of consecutive games in double figures is 13, set over the final 13 games of the 1996 season.
* * *
At one point this season, Princeton scored on seven straight extra-man opportunities. Take away those seven (against Manhattan and North Carolina), and Princeton is 6 for 28 the rest of the year.
Rutgers has scored on 42% of its EMOs.
* * *
Princeton has scored 112 goals for the year, and its starting attack and midfield (Jeff Froccaro, Mike MacDonald, Ryan Ambler, Jake Froccaro, Kip Orban, Tom Schreiber) have combined for 104 fo them.
Those six also have 58 of the 68 assists.
* * *
Princeton has had the same starting lineup in all nine games. It includes four freshmen (Ryan Ambler on attack, Jake Froccaro at midfield, Mark Strabo on defense and Matt O'Connor in goal).
* * *
Mike MacDonald and Jeff Froccaro are tied for the team lead with 24 goals each, through nine games.
MacDonald had 22 goals in 16 games as a freshman last year.
Froccaro had 28 goals his first two years combined and then had 27 a year ago.
* * *
Princeton averaged 31.6 shots per game in 2011 and 36.8 shots per game last year.
This year, Princeton has averaged 43.2 shots per game.
There was an average of 66.9 shots per game between Princeton and its opponents last year. This year, that number is 78.6 per game.
Rutgers averages 37.8 shots per game.

Served in whole wheat tortillas, these scrumptious beef and veggie quesadillas pack a healthy dose of fiber. They're spicy enough to suit my husband, but mild enough to please our 2-year-old son. Robyn Larabee - Lucknow, Ontario
- 3/4 pound lean ground beef (90% lean)
- 1 medium onion, chopped
- 3/4 cup finely chopped fresh mushrooms
- 1 medium zucchini, shredded
- 1 medium carrot, shredded
- 2 garlic cloves, minced
- 2 teaspoons chili powder
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon hot pepper sauce
- 2 medium tomatoes, seeded and chopped
- 1/4 cup minced fresh cilantro
- 4 whole wheat tortillas (8 inches), warmed
- Cooking spray
- 1/2 cup shredded part-skim mozzarella cheese
- In a large nonstick skillet over medium heat, cook beef and onion until meat is no longer pink; drain. Remove and keep warm. In the same skillet, cook and stir the mushrooms, zucchini, carrot, garlic, chili powder, salt and pepper sauce until vegetables are tender. Stir in the tomatoes, cilantro and beef mixture.
- Spritz one side of each tortilla with cooking spray; place plain side up in a 15-in. x 10-in. x 1-in. baking pan coated with cooking spray. Spoon beef mixture over half of each tortilla; sprinkle with cheese. Fold tortillas over filling.
- Bake at 400° for 5 minutes. Carefully turn over; bake 5-6 minutes longer or until cheese is melted. Cut into wedges. Yield: 4 servings.

"I had the day off today and wanted to try something new. I found this in my pile of magazines and I am so glad I did. My husband and I both LOVED these and will make them again this week with the left over mixture I still have. I added a little bit of green pepper, but didn't change anything else."

"Made these last night for supper and they were great. I just used taco seasoning instead of the chili powder. I will make them over and over."

ZF-6062: setElementsBelongTo() does not allow '0' value, but it is permitted for form name
'0' is a valid key for an array, so a subform should permit its elements to belong to such a key. Other numeric values like '1' and '2' are currently permitted.
Test for revealing incorrect current behavior.
Patch for FormTest.php with the correct name - please ignore previous one.
Patch for resolving the issue. Obtained against and to be applied, like the test, to 1.7 branch.
Sorry, but this won't be accepted at this time.
The reason numeric values are not allowed as names of elements, sub forms, and display groups has to do with a design decision to allow overloading to retrieve each of these items. Overloading requires valid PHP variable names.
There are a number of requests similar to yours, and we will likely re-evaluate this decision for 2.0; however before then, making such a change would break existing behavior.
class Test { public function __construct() { $test = 0; $this->$test = 1; var_dump( $this->$test ); } }
Fix for the whole Zend_Form package in ZF-ver-1.10.2-Fix-Issue-ZF-9350-Zend_Form.diff
Fixed in [ZF-9401]
Reopened because suggested fix is not reviewed and committed yet.
Fixed in parent ZF-9401

When the design is done it will produce 2D patterns that can be cut and assembled into the real thing! Kudos! :)
