City council merits praise for goal change
Published: Friday, March 22, 2013 at 12:30 a.m.
Last Modified: Thursday, March 21, 2013 at 1:08 p.m.
Bravo, Lexington City Council. After receiving criticism for dropping homeownership as one of 10 proposed goals for 2013 during a retreat in February, the council reinstated the goal Tuesday when it officially adopted them. This decision came as welcome news to local and state agencies that advocate for homeownership and could ultimately pay dividends for the city in the long run.
As stated in a previous editorial, homeowners tend to take better care of their homes, which can result in increased property tax values; create stable neighborhoods; and show faith in Lexington with a willingness to put down roots. Councilman Wayne Alley, a Realtor, took the point position Tuesday in seeking a return of the homeownership goal and offered additional evidence. He said tax records showed a 360 percent increase in tax value of homes rehabilitated through the Lexington Housing Community Development Corp.
The city had already reinstated homeownership as a bullet point under the goal focusing on economic development. But the bullet points simply don't receive the same level of attention as the top line goals. Any synopsis of the council's plans normally focuses on the 10 goals, not the points that fall underneath each. Many of those bullet points are very valuable in their own right, especially ones listed under economic development and appearance.
Elected officials sometimes must make tough decisions that won't sit well with their constituents. But in this case, listening to those who wanted to see homeownership returned to a top-level goal and then making the change offered the right course of action. Those housing advocates were right, and the council members responded to their points and revisited the goals. The hallmark of an effective government is one that listens to citizens and is willing to change course if presented with compelling arguments.
Now the challenge comes for the city to begin tackling the 2013 goals. The development of the Depot District remains a high priority, as it should. The project provides the potential to reinvigorate the downtown area. Other goals also would lead to many positive changes in Lexington. The council achieved many of the 2012 goals, so the track record looks positive for similar success this year.
One frustration citizens sometimes voice is when they believe elected officials aren't listening to them. Lexington residents see evidence that didn't happen in this case as the council members did act on the concerns that were raised about the homeownership goal. Such an open type of government will not only cause people to support their leaders but also motivate some to become involved and help achieve the goals as well.

Gov. Jack A. Markell signed signed H.B. 259 into law today, which passed both the house and the senate last week.
House Bill 259 makes permanent the pilot program created in 2011, required the state's department of education to estimate each school district's enrollment for the following school year in May, and guarantee state funds to each district sufficient to cover 98 percent of the state's share of hiring the teachers justified by that enrollment estimate.
"This bill improves our public schools," said Lt. Governor Denn. "We are always trying to hire the best and brightest to teach our children and now we will hopefully be able to do more of that in a timely fashion. This is a win for students and teachers alike."

Reviews for Ham Barbecue
"I doubled the recipe for an event this weekend. It was delicious and I could have easily eaten two sandwiches. I will be sure to stir it frequently since the my newer crock pot is very hot. **Update: You can also use leftover ham from a bone-in dinner. Just place slices in the crock pot and shred it with a fork once it's hot. Yummy!** BTW, I do NOT add the water."
"My Grandma used to make this but used what was called chipped ham. I don't know if they slice it that thin anymore Yes, she was from Pittsburgh!"
"Very good! Quick and easy. I topped the sandwiches with provolone cheese and served on club rolls. Will definitely make again!"
"I grew up in western PA, so this recipe is very close to the one my mother and aunts used. We bought the "chipped ham"from Isaly's and then did the sauce at home. It is a famous prep in the Pittsburgh area, still available in local diners especially around the stadium areas.I now live in northern New England, and have found the Hormel low sodium deli ham to be the closest to what I remember.Also, when I use my small crockpot to make this yummy treat, I do not add any water, since the ham will release liquid as it cooks.Go Steelers and Pirates!!!!"
"Quick to put together and has a sweet but tangy taste. I did add some Head Country season salt and decreased the water by half. The ham will release some water as it cooks. It is good, but what I love the best is being able to put in the the crock while I am running errands, then it is ready when we get in."

NextBio is teaming up with scientists at Emory University and the Winship Cancer Institute to identify biomarkers and drugs targeting multiple myeloma, using the firm's NextBio Clinical platform to interpret molecular data from patients. The Winship Cancer Institute is a National Cancer Institute (NCI)-designated center, with specialist expertise in the multiple myeloma field.
"For this study, we will be collecting RNA-seq, SNP, and copy number variation data from our own patient samples," explains Sagar Lonial, M.D., director of translational research for the B-cell malignancy program at Winship, who will act as principal investigator on the NextBio collaboration. "In addition, we plan to access the multiple myeloma cell line data available in the NextBio platform as well as myeloma data from public repositories that NextBio has curated. Integrating use of molecular data alongside clinical data in our cancer translational research projects is a top priority, and this partnership will help us solidify that workflow."
NextBio offers a software platform to aggregate and interpret large quantities of genomic data for research and clinical applications. Delivered as a Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) offering, the NextBio platform contains what the firm says is the world's largest repository of curated and correlated public and private genomic data, including data from multiple public repositories of genomic studies and patient molecular profiles, up-to-date reference genomes, and clinical trial results. The enterprise platform provides users with access to the curated public patient clinical and molecular data, experimental models, and real-time interpretation and analysis tools.
The NextBio Clinical platform allows users to apply data analysis and interpretation to biomarker discovery, translational research, and clinical trials. This clinical platform is formatted around a patient-centric framework that allows the correlation of patients' molecular and clinical data from public and proprietary studies in an integrated context. The NextBio Research platform provides tools and content geared towards exploratory, preclinical, and early translational research in drug discovery and biotechnology research.
In July NextBio announced a partnership with Intel that aims to further push the boundaries of applying Big Data technologies to genomics.

Nope, I got caught up doing other stuff. Will try to evaluate asap though.
Dolf, is there any chance this bug could get fixed soon? regards
I wanted to do this during some BHD's, so we're basically waiting for the next BHD.

Alsace Lorraine Champagne : Michelin's recommendations
From Paris, you can cross Champagne, Lorraine and Alsace in a flash! The TGV Est (high-speed train) takes 45 minutes to reach Reims, capital of the Champagne region, then continues on to Nancy, and finally to Strasbourg in barely 2 hours and 30 minutes.
Historically, these hilly regions were heavily affected by the 1st World War. Verdun was the largest battle in French history, and nearly a century later the landscapes are still marked by the terrible fighting.
Champagne gave its name to one of the most famous wines in the world, about which Churchill said: ''I can't live without champagne: when I'm victorious, I deserve it, and when defeated it consoles me.'' You can visit the huge cellars dug into Reims Mountain where millions of corks are waiting to be popped!
Nancy, the capital of Lorraine, has a diverse legacy, including works from the Medieval, Classical and Art Nouveau periods. With its wrought-iron gates, Place Stanislas, a masterpiece of French classicism, is one of the most beautiful squares in France. The region is also known around the world for its Baccarat crystal.
When you reach Strasbourg, whose cathedral is visible from a distance of 50km, you've finally made it to Alsace! Like Lorraine, Alsace was reunited with France after the 1st World War, and is a magnificent region with a strong identity. The wine route takes you through Colmar and picturesque Disney-like villages such as Riquewihr and Eguisheim.

Softball Sweeps Two From Delaware State Saturday in Florida
Rookie Shanna Christian picked up two wins over Delaware State Saturady at the North Florida Osprey Invitational in Jacksonville, advancing Princeton to Sunday's tournament championship game against North Florida at 12:30 p.m.
Princeton took the first game 8-3 with Christian tossing 2 1/3 innings of hitless relief. In the 3-0 win in the afternoon game, Christian gave up her only hit in the first inning to the game's opening batter. She walked six in her 9 1/3 total innings on the day, striking out seven.
In the opener, Princeton (3-1) fell behind early in Meredith Brown's first start of the season in the circle but rallied to take a 2-1 lead on an Emily Viggers RBI single in the third.
Princeton fell behind 3-2 two innings later, leading to Brown being replaced with two outs by rookie Christian, making her collegiate debut, got the last out of the inning, and Princeton scored the game's last six runs. Skye Jerpbak hit a 3-run home run in the seventh as part of a five-run inning that gave Princeton a cushion, and Christian picked up her first win as a Tiger.
In the second game, Princeton pulled ahead in the second inning when Candy Button had an RBI double, and the Tigers added some insurance in an eight-batter inning that saw just one hit, from Lizzy Pierce, two walks and two errors.
Alyssa Schmidt went 6 for 8 on the twinbill and now leads the team in hits, going 9 for 16 (.563). Delaware State fell to 1-6 with the losses.
North Florida will enter Sunday's game at 18-4 overall and winners of 10 in a row, including a 2-0 win over Princeton in which the Tigers outhit the Ospreys 8-7.
Postgame notes
• All six freshmen have made their collegiate debuts over the first two days, and all six have gotten starts.
• Princeton has outscored its opponents 21-7 over the three games so far.
• Princeton's pitching staff has a 1.61 ERA through its first four games.
• Four players have hit home runs, each with one so far. Seniors Lizzy Pierce and Alex Peyton have put one out, as have sophomore Sarah McGowan and freshman Skye Jerpbak.
• Princeton has won at least three of its first four games for the first time since 2009, when it was also 3-1.

I was recently in Kelowna on a cool November day with a few hours to kill and a looming deadline of my husband's birthday fast approaching. I headed for Bernard Street in the cute heritage downtown right by the lake (a short walk from my Accent Inn) and was soon embarrassed by the obscene number of shopping bags I was holding!
The shopkeeper in Blackfish Apparel assured me that all the bags was a very good thing, especially shopping local and supporting a vibrant downtown Kelowna. Well, I sure did my part in her store which is unbelievable for ladies looking for funky but low priced dresses. I walked out of there with 3 new little numbers all under $100. The shop owner was so friendly and helpful when I guiltily explained that I was supposed to be looking for my husband's birthday gift; she pointed me in the right direction down to X.10.Sion (yeah, I haven't a clue how to pronounce it either, but it's right below Earl's at the end of Bernard across from the lake… speaking of Earls, what an awesome place to have lunch! A beautiful view of the water…. or try the Memphis Blues BBQ one block up on Bernard if you like ribs… wow, they are good). (more…)

Rated 3.9 out of 5 by 16 reviewers.
Rated 5 out of 5 by Cavewoman Easy soup mix Husband and son liked it very much. It was easy to make. November 26, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5 by Pragmatic Weekly staple in my home I LOVE this soup, but I've created my own version over the past few years. I start with a pre-chopped mirepoux soup base (chopped onions, celery & carrots) and saute in olive oil for 10 minutes. Then add a carton of chicken stock and about half the recommend water and bring to boil. Next I add LOTS of veggies (brussel sprouts, mushrooms, kale, green beans ... even edamame) and let it all cook for half an hour or so. Sometimes I add sausage, but usually not. Start-to-finish it takes a little over an hour to make a huge pot of soup that provides dinner 3+ nights a week for a household of two. I wait for the 10% off coupons and purchase 8-10 packages a time. June 16, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5 by Sue93 Great time saver Added shrimp and andouille as suggested, I would add the extra rice the next time. But the flavor was great for not making it from scratch. April 17, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5 by Jules Easy to make and SO delicious! This soup was awesome. I made a few changes, which I think went a long way toward addressing issues raised by other consumers. Instead of water I used chicken broth. I also added two cans of pinto beans and an extra cup of rice, as well as some shrimp and andouille sausage. It came out nice and dense rather than soupy, and was a good level of spicy. I sprinkled in some cayenne papper and a teaspoon of Tapatio as well. I highly recommend this product. My family loved it. It made six large bowls of stew. I can't wait to eat my leftovers for lunch! November 16, 2012
Rated 5 out of 5 by LindaATL Vegetarian version is delicious I substituted a vegetarian chicken substitute for real chicken, added a little oil (to replace the natural oil of chicken) and a little chicken bouillon to enhance the flavor of chicken. I tried the soup on my meat-eating friends and they loved it. They didn't know it had no meat (until they saw me eating it too!). I added no seasoning because the spice level out of the package was good for this group. It was a perfect repast after church with some hot french bread and sweet tea! September 9, 2012
Rated 5 out of 5 by puddie Awesome Soup I love soup and could eat is 24/7. This is the best package soup I have ever had. Much better than Harry and David. I pretty much prepared it following the package direction with the exception I substituted chicken stock for the water. added smoked sausage. The soup is absolutely the best and I will continue to buy this and the others. October 2, 2011
Rated 4 out of 5 by HastaBeShasta Great flavor We like this soup mix as it extremely easy to use and has a great flavor. The only negative comment is that is has waaaaay toooo much salt. It could have half the amount of salt and allow the user to "salt to taste". December 28, 2014
Rated 4 out of 5 by Shea752 Excellent, Too Excellent? I bought this (along with a few others) when World Market was having a sale on these. This was by far my favorite. I added a TON of salad shrimp to it since I didn't have sausage. Just the right amount of spice. This stuff seriously makes enough jambalaya for a family of 4 for 2-3 DAYS (unless that family includes 3 linebackers)! I got pretty tired of it after 3 days of having it for lunch and dinner. It is good, but not that good. I am sad that I had to throw away the rest, but that's just too much jambalaya for one person. Anyways I feel accomplished that I "made" some darn good soup. I'll probably have to find a way to quarter the recipe next time so I don't have to force stuff my face with it for DAYS on end. August 30, 2014

Nutrition Review Questions Soda-Obesity Link . . .
Can you artificially sweeten the scientific literature? The latest American Journal of Clinical Nutrition (subscription required), in a review questioning the link between consuming sugar-sweetened drinks and rising obesity rates, failed to reveal the two authors' financial ties to the beverage industry. Although the journal disclosed that the review was paid for by the American Beverage Association, whose member companies include Coca-Cola and Pepsi, authors Adam Drewnowski of the University of Washington and France Bellisle of the Institut National de Recherché Agronomique in France reported that they had no other conflicts of interest.
Last month, the Seattle Times reported that a University of Washington study led by Drewnowski on high-fructose corn syrup was financed by the Corn Refiners Association and American Beverage Institute. Bellisle, meanwhile, sits on an advisory board for McDonald's, which sells large amounts of Coca-Cola products.
The review suggested that weight gain associated with drinking sweetened beverages may be due to other factors since studies have shown that consuming sugar-containing liquids in lieu of regular meals can lead to "significant and sustained weight loss." However, those studies involved nutrient-fortified meal-replacement beverages, not soft drinks.
. . . While Report Says Industry Soda Studies Underplay Health Problems
A new Yale University report found that studies funded by industry are much less likely to show detrimental effects from soft drinks than studies that did not receive industry funding. The article analyzed 88 studies identified through databases such as MEDLINE, PsycINFO and Web of Science. "Studies funded by the food industry simply did not find the degree of negative health effects from soft drinks that independent scholars discovered," Kelly D. Brownell, director of the Rudd Center for Food Policy and Obesity at Yale, said in a statement. Brownell co-authored the study, which will appear in the April issue of the American Journal of Public Health, with fellow Yale researchers Lenny Vartanian and Marlene Schwartz.
EPA Advisers Stick with Stricter Ozone Recommendation
An outside scientific expert panel voted unanimously last week to stick with its recommendation that the Environmental Protection Agency lower the federal air quality standard for ozone beyond the administration's recommendation, according to E&E News PM (subscription required). The 23-member Clean Air Scientific Advisory Committee (CASAC) said in September that new evidence showing adverse respiratory effects in sensitive groups such as children with asthma made the present ozone standard, which is 0.08 ppm average over eight hours, obsolete. EPA staff in late January recommended that the standard be lowered to "somewhat below" 0.08 parts per million. The advisory panel said the standard should not exceed 0.07 ppm. This tougher recommendation came despite the panel having several members with conflicts of interest, and eight whose research was funded by the Health Effects Institute, which is jointly funded by the auto industry and the EPA.
A Tale of Two Tests
Using expensive CT scans to screen chronic smokers may increase early diagnosis of lung cancer, but it does not reduce smokers' risk of contracting advanced lung cancer and dying, according to a study that appeared in the Journal of the American Association last week. "We don't think there's a hint of benefit," lead researcher Peter B. Bach of the Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center told the New York Times. The findings are diametrically opposed to a similar study published last year in the New England Journal of Medicine, which showed routine screening with CT scans increased the longevity of smokers identified with cancer, presumably because they were diagnosed and treated earlier.
Funding for the two studies was notably different, too. The latest JAMA study was self-funded by the researchers' institutions, which, in addition to Sloan-Kettering, included the National Cancer Institute, the Department of Defense, and several European government agencies. While researchers involved in the NEJM study also received government support, General Electric, which sells expensive CT scan machines, and Eastman Kodak, which sells the film, also provided financial support over the 12-year study period. The Times story, authored by Gina Kolata, offered the contrasting views of the two studies' authors, but did not report the funding sources of either.
Government Silences Polar Bear Scientists
Employees of the Alaska division of the federal Fish and Wildlife Service were instructed not to discuss climate change, polar bears, or sea ice while traveling in countries around the Arctic region, the New York Times reported. An Interior Department memo stated that employees who spoke on these issues had to be approved and had to understand the "administration's position," especially regarding the plight of the polar bears whose habitat is disappearing due to global warming.
Consultants Removed from BPA Panel
The National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences removed representatives of Sciences International, which previously worked for chemical companies that produced bisphenol A (BPA), from administering the meeting of an outside advisory panel that is evaluating risks from BPA; the agency also postponed its decision for two to three months to review additional documents. The decision comes as evidence of the chemicals' risk continues to mount. The Washington Post reported today that researchers believe that the chemical may contribute to obesity, and a new study in the journal Endocrinology demonstrates that exposure to low doses of BPA affects the development of mammary glands in mice, increasing the risk of breast cancers.
(Cheers and) Jeers
Odds and Ends
University of Minnesota Medical School Dean Deborah Powell has joined the board of PepsiAmericas, a soft-drink bottler whose main products are linked to obesity, diabetes and other human health problems, the St. Paul Pioneer Press reported. . . .The University of Ottawa has launched a review of its conflict-of-interest rules regarding faculty consulting with private industry, the Ottawa Citizen reports.

Convinced that society's highest aspirations must include musical creativity,
the music department seeks to broaden the cultural horizons of the students
of Saint Benedict's and Saint John's. Performance is at the heart of the
music program. Band, orchestra, ensembles, and a variety of choirs present
formal opportunities for students to develop their own musical abilities and
to take delight in the creativity of others. One-on-one private studio
lessons and a number of core fine arts courses invite all students to explore
the discipline of music and its contribution to world cultures.
Students majoring in music develop knowledge and skill in the basic elements
of music. They undertake an integrated study of the historical evolution of
these basic elements and, in their own right, learn to use this knowledge
verbally, aurally and in performance. The major combines intensive personal
study of a major instrument with strong collaboration with faculty members
and student peers in studio performance classes and weekly recitals.
Assessment and review of student performance in music is compiled every
semester and reviewed by the faculty, with student input. Students complete a
self-assessment for each performance jury examination and senior students
complete a nationally recognized Major Field Test indicating their level of
mastery in music history and theory. Curricular review of all classroom
activity is gathered by the faculty on a rotating schedule, by division.
The music department offers a program leading to a bachelor of arts degree

Caladiums (page 2 of 3)
by Barbara Pleasant
Caladiums in Containers
In USDA Hardiness Zone 7 southward, it's always warm enough to grow caladiums in outdoor beds; gardeners everywhere can growing caladiums in containers. Use a peaty potting soil, and plant three to five tubers upright in a 6-inch pot. Cover them with 2 inches of potting soil, soak once, and keep the pots in a very warm spot (70° to 80° F) for three weeks. Because the tubers like semidry conditions while they are breaking dormancy, water lightly, but don't let the soil dry completely.
When slender spikes push through the soil, move the pots to bright light, indoors or out, and start giving them more water. As long as temperatures stay above 70° F, the leaves should quickly unfurl.
Caladiums in full leaf need a steady supply of water. Plants that dry to the point of wilting will revive after a short dry spell, but forgotten plants may become dormant. Once dormant, caladiums will refuse to leaf out for at least eight weeks.
Because caladiums are basically all leaves, they thrive on regular fertilizer. To keep plenty of new leaves coming on, mix a balanced soluble fertilizer such as 10-10-10 into the watering can twice a month while plants are growing well.
The great advantage of pot-grown caladiums is that you can move them about as needed to keep them warm. When nights become chilly in fall, bring them indoors, near a sunny window, until they look as if they need a rest. At that point, let them dry out completely. To save space, you can collect the tubers, shake off the soil, and stash them in old hosiery or a mesh bag for up to five months. As long as the tubers are stored above 60° F, they will be ready to replant the following spring.
Bedding Basics
In the warm, humid climates of southern zones 8 and 9 (National Gardening zones Middle, Lower, and Tropical South), plant caladium tubers directly into the ground in spring. In most other areas, you'll save several weeks of growing time by transplanting potted plants that are already up and growing.
Plant in soil that is moist, well drained, humus rich, and slightly acidic. Caladiums are popular grown around the bases of trees, but for this planting scheme to work, you will need to create a 5-inch-deep bed of rich soil so the tuberous roots will have adequate space and a fair chance at moisture.
To make watering and fertilizing easier, plant three tubers (or plants) in 6-inch black plastic pots (nursery liners) and sink the pots up to their rims in the beds. The pots collect and hold water, stave off invasions from thirsty tree roots, and make it simple to lift and collect the tubers in fall.

It was a season so front loaded that, by August, audiences had already forgotten it was supposed to be a Summer of popcorn fun. Things really did fade fast after Avengers: Age of Ultron and Jurassic World promised a billion-dollar payoff at the box office. Of course, both film did breakthrough to that new blockbuster barrier, but did so not with superior filmmaking and entertainment value, but with a renewed focus on the foreign markets. Instead of providing outstanding creativity, Hollywood has just perfected the art of selling eye candy to the world.
This doesn't mean that there weren't great films this summer. It just means that the mediocrity outshined the few masterworks. It was the same with the worst. Something like The Gallows should definitely be present here, but a choice like that (lame found footage horror film) would be like celebrating one of those fish that we always seem to be hunting in barrels. Instead, the 11 films below (an honorary mention and choice of five for both categories) were a true test of filmmaking tolerances. Both pro and con, they all wanted to be part of your May to August fun. Some were. Most weren't.

Feb. 15, 2013 Doug Duncan
Doug Duncan, a professor of astronomy and director of the University of Colorado Boulder's Fiske Planetarium, comments on a meteorite that exploded Friday morning above the Russian city of Chelyabinsk and on the close fly-by of Asteroid 2012 DA14 later that day.
Meteorite Explosion Over Russia
Feb. 15, 2013 Doug Duncan
Doug Duncan, a professor of astronomy and director of the University of Colorado Boulder's Fiske Planetarium, comments on a meteorite that exploded Friday morning above the Russian city of Chelyabinsk and on the close fly-by of Asteroid 2012 DA14 later that day.
This is not a rare event.
"On thing that may surprise people is that meteorites coming down like we saw over Russia on Friday morning is not rare. (:11) It happens many, many times a day. Most of the time meteorites come down in places where there aren't people. They come down in the ocean, they come down in the middle of a mountain or countryside and nobody sees them." (:24)
How big was the meteor?
"As far as we can tell this meteorite was maybe the size of a large desk - a little bit smaller than a compact car. It weighed about 10 tones. (:10) But it was moving so fast – for Colorado listeners it would go from Boulder to Denver in about one second. So people say how could it have so much energy if it was just the size of me? And the answer is it was traveling so fast." (:25)
How powerful was the explosion?
"It actually packs as much punch a little bit less than the atomic bomb over Hiroshima, ok, now, big difference. The meteorite rock breaks up 20 or 30 miles up in the atmosphere. (:14) So that whole rock did not make it to ground level. If it did that would be a much more serious thing. But our atmosphere protects us and so that meteorite broke up, as you can see in the videos, 20 or 30 miles about the ground." (:31)
What caused all the damage if the meteorite broke up so high in the atmosphere?
"A meteorite traveling that fast breaks the sound barrier and produces an enormous sonic boom. (:11) And it's that sonic boom that broke hundreds of thousands of windows and all the people who were injured they were actually injured from flying glass from all those windows breaking." (:18)
What would happen if Asteroid 2012 DA14 that passed within 17,000 miles of Earth on Feb. 15 were to smash into the atmosphere?
"The larger one is about the size of an Olympic swimming pool and it would pack the energy of one of the largest nuclear weapons ever if it was to hit the Earth. But it isn't going to hit the Earth. It's missing by thousands and thousands of miles. (:16) And so one good thing is the bigger the meteorite the more rare. So if you talk about something the size of an Olympic pool that would only hit the Earth once in thousand and thousands of years. (:33)
What are the odds of getting hit by a meteorite?
"I did an approximate calculation of how dangerous meteorites are. Sometimes people ask – so what's the chance I'll be hit by a meteorite? And I can tell people, that in all of American history only one person has been struck by a falling meteorite. Her name was Mrs. Hodges. She was in her kitchen somewhere in Alabama in the 1950s and a potato-sized meteorite came through the roof, bounced off a radio and smacked her in the hip – gave her a big black and blue mark, didn't kill her. So no person has been killed by a meteorite and very roughly your chances are a hundred times bigger to be struck by lightening." (:43)

One of the greatest NBA coaches ever, Pat Riley, and two of the best players in the game today, LeBron James and Dwyane Wade, still couldn't convince Baron Davis to sign with the Heat last December.
Davis already knew where he wanted to sign for the veteran's minimum: the New York Knicks.
"I spoke to Pat Riley. D-Wade, LeBron, they texted me and asked me what was up," Davis said. "But I pretty much knew I wanted to come here and play in the Garden and play in front of these fans and play for this organization. I always wanted to play here, so this was really like my first choice."
James Plans on Guarding Jeremy Lin
February 23, 2012
Thursday could be the ultimate test for Jeremy Lin. Not because his Knicks will be taking on Miami Heat. But individually, because LeBron James, one of the best on-ball defenders in the game, says he'll likely guard Lin some.
"I know I'm going to end up guarding Lin at some point," LeBron told reporters Wednesday.
LeBron, as I'm sure you recall, switched to guard Derrick Rose for lage parts of the Eastern Conference Finals and essentially locked down the MVP. And while Jeremy Lin has had quite the start to his time in New York, he's not Derrick Rose.

Reviews for Chocolate Truffles
"Couldn't be easier, with only 3 (2 main) ingredients! My kids enjoyed helping roll and top them and then eat them. I used cocoa powder, colored sugar sprinkles, and matcha drink powder."
"My daughter and I made these for Valentine and found them easy, we used different sprinkles and nuts. Think we will try to use different flavored extract's to change it up."
"I made this as a Student Council representative for my school, and it was a best-seller! After 10 minutes, all the truffles were sold out, and a bunch of people were disappointed they never got a chance to taste them. And hehe it's actually my first time cooking by myself. Took me like 6 hours...But it's worth it. I became my school's hero for a few days :)"
"These are good and easy, just not anything special. I do love the topping ideas--for any kind of truffle."
"I made these last year, and will be making more tomorrow. They are fantastic. I did learn that if your truffles don't hold their shape, you can add a small amount of confectioner's sugar to stiffen them just a bit. Make them small, roll them quickly in the coatings and put them straight back in the fridge UNCOVERED. Once they dry a bit and get a "crust", they hold their shape well."

End of the NFL lockout: Timeline going forward
Now that the NFL lockout is over, a lot of you might be wondering about the specifics of the timeline going forward. Thanks to the bizoffootball.com, we have access to the same document that went out to NFL agents earlier today – one that details the details of the new collective bargaining agreement.
But about that timeline … Here it is:
Tuesday, July 26
–Facilities open
–Trading begins
–10 a.m. EST clubs may sign all rookies; and negotiate with but not sign all other players
-Training camps open 15 days prior to the first game (July 27, 28, 29, 31)
-Thursday, July 28 at 4:01pm EST
–Clubs may waive or terminate Player Contracts
-Friday, July 29 at 6:00 pm EST
–Renegotiate contracts
–Sign players but those players may not receive any contract payments and they will be prohibited from physical activity until a CBA is ratified
–Signed Rookies may participate and have protection if injured.
-Thursday, August 4
–League Year begins if the CBA is ratified (League Year could start earlier if CBA is ratified sooner)
–All clubs must be under the cap (Top 51 rule applies)
So there you have it. The Dolphins would open training camp on Thursday, given that's 15 days before their first preseason game (Aug. 12 at Atlanta). Still, it's unclear whether the team would practice that day or practice on Friday. Team spokesman Harvey Greene said earlier today that the team is still figuring its preseason schedule.

Gardener uses cool trick to nurture tulips
Published: Wednesday, February 20, 2013 at 5:30 a.m.
Last Modified: Tuesday, February 19, 2013 at 6:13 p.m.
PALM COAST — "If I can do it, anyone can do it," said Marylou Caputo of Palm Coast about her recent gardening success.
Tulips can be moody and need a lengthy cold snap to facilitate growth, something not common in Florida, so Caputo decided to conduct an experiment.
A gardener for nearly 22 years, she said she knows the right time of year to scope the stores for bulbs and lucked out with a stop at a Palm Coast store in September. Picking out some daffodil and tulip bulbs, she stowed them in her refrigerator for eight to 12 weeks to give them a "cooling off" period.
"Let tulips think they are in the ground up north," she said.
Around Thanksgiving, she popped the bulbs into the ground. Nestled among roses, irises and lilies, the tulips began to sprout in about three weeks.
"They started really slow then, half-way grown, they took off," she said.
Flagler County Master Gardener Jack Resser explained that tulips need that cool time. Removing bulbs from the soil as soon as the foliage turns brown and putting them in the refrigerator for six to eight weeks is his advice. Bone meal can be used as a fertilizer to help to strengthen the bulbs, he said.
Resser also stressed protecting the plants from pathogens in the soil, which can lead to rot.
The white hybrid tulips with crimson accents stand out in Caputo's otherwise dormant winter garden.
"It was very easy," Caputo said of the process. "If you think it's going to grow, try it."

No doubt about it, searching for a job in today's economy isn't any fun at all. But if you're using your age as a reason you're not getting hired, it's time to come up with a new excuse.
Business News Daily reports managers are three times as apt to hire someone 50 years old or older as they are to hire a millennial, according to a survey conducted by Adecco, a staffing and recruiting agency.
And if that hiring manager is a woman, even better. According to the website, females will give the job to a more mature candidate even more often.
Getting better with age? Yes, boss!

Four Seasons of Special Events In Concord
Spring/ Patriot's Day Celebration
On April 19, 1775, Paul Revere sounded an alarm as 800 British Regulars marched upon the village of Concord to steal away cannon and stored arms. At a rude bridge arching the Concord River Colonial Minutemen faced off and fired the "shot heard 'round the world" that began the Revolutionary War. Each year, leading up to the anniversary, Concord once again fills with Patriot, Red Coats and the loud rumble of brass cannon for over a week of festivities, battle re-enactments, Colonial bivouac, demonstrations, parades and a Patriot's Ball. This is an exciting time enjoyed by all ages.
Summer/ School of Philosophy Conversational Series
The annual Conversational Series and Teacher Institute takes place in July at Bronson Alcott's hillside Concord School of Philosophy, located on the grounds of Orchard House. In the summer of 1879 Bronson Alcott (father of Louisa May Alcott) realized a 40 year dream of opening a center for the exchange of philosophical, religious and literary ideas when he built his rustic Hillside Chapel lecture hall, that still draws distinguished presenters from around the world for lyceum-style exploration. The Orchard House, home of the Alcotts, opened as a private museum and interpretive center in July of 1913.
Fall/ Concord Festival of Authors
The preeminent annual literary event in the Boston area is held in Concord each Autumn. For Two weeks in October and November as many as 50 contemporary writers gather for public talks, readings, and discussions celebrating the written and the spoken word. The venues vary: breakfast panel discussions, large group readings, lectures and book-signings by many favorite wordsmiths.
Winter/ Family Trees: A Celebration of Children's Literature
Returning to the Concord Museum for the month of December, the exhibition's focus on children's literature makes Family Trees unique among the many holiday events in Greater Boston. Featuring the work of more than 60 volunteer decorators from across the area, each tree's décor is inspired by a different children's book: classic and contemporary, familiar and little known, novels and chapter books. Each tree serves as a canvas for the artistic creations of a dedicated team of volunteer decorators. Inspired by the storyline, the illustrations, the characters or setting of a particular book, the decorators let their imaginations take flight, much to the delight of visitors of all ages from all over New England.
