Today, as I was cutting a lemon into my smoothie, and I smelled that fresh, bright scent – I found myself wondering, how do I know if a lemon is ripe? It made me laugh a little when I answered myself with… "If it's sweet, it's not ripe." Right? Stands to reason, don't you think?
I decided to Google it. Even though I grew up in San Diego, and lemon trees are in many backyards… I had no idea what I should look for in a ripe lemon.
Turns out that color is an important indicator. Lemons on the tree are green. As they get ripe, the richer yellow their color. So, if like me, you live in the PNW and have to buy lemons from your local grocery… Here's what you want to look for:
- bright, glossy yellow color
- firm, but not over-hard or too soft or with squishy spots (it's too far gone at that point)
- sounds simple, but it should smell lemony
- choose lemons that are heavy for their size
- peels that have a finely grained texture
The only potential flaw with using how the fruit looks is that lemons are often waxed to lengthen shelf life, reduce bruising, and increase the aesthetic, visual appeal. Oranges are sometimes dyed in addition to waxed, but I couldn't find reports of dyed lemons. The most helpful information on oranges and dye that I found was at Earthbound Farms website:
Color is not necessarily an indicator of ripeness or quality. Oranges are always picked when they are ripe, but Florida oranges (with the exception of organic fruit) are often dyed with food color. This is not true of oranges produced in California or Arizona, where state laws prohibit adding color to citrus fruits. Also, fully ripe oranges can sometimes turn green, especially Valencias. "Regreening" is a natural process that can occur if there is ripe fruit on a tree at the same time the tree is producing blossoms. The tree produces chlorophyll to feed its blossoms, and the mature fruit also receives some of this chlorophyll, which contributes a green tint to the skin. Oranges that have "regreened" tend to be extra sweet because they were not picked early and are tree-ripened.
Okay, back to lemons and waxes. From WHFoods.com:
Plant, insect, animal or petroleum-based waxes may be used. Carnauba palm is the most common plant-source wax. Other compounds, such as ethyl alcohol or ethanol, are added to the waxes for consistency, milk casein (a protein linked to milk allergy) for "film formers" and soaps for flowing agents. Since you may not be able to determine the source of these waxes, this is another good reason to choose organically grown lemons and limes.
The rule is that if dyes and/or waxes are used, the grower is supposed to include it on the list of ingredients. Problem is, when was the last time you saw a list of ingredients for the lemon or orange you bought at the grocery?
The good news, lemons don't rank on EWG.com's Shoppers Guide to Pesticides. So if you aren't going to use the peel, you are probably okay buying the non-organic lemons. The oranges are right in the middle of the list… so if you are zesting, opt for the organic. If you are eating just the fruit, and your budget won't allow – buying non-organic is an understandable choice.

FALL RIVER, Mass. — As American Dryer Corp. (ADC) markets a new company vision and direction for the future, it is also showing pride in its past by paying tribute to longtime owner Martin Slutsky.
ADC has newly established an award named for Slutsky to honor the top ADC distributor that demonstrates the philosophies upon which the company was built. It will recognize "remarkable achievements, dedication and unmatched success," ADC says.
Slutsky launched ADC from the ground up in 1965. His most renowned accomplishment was inventing the 30-pound stack dryer to help coin laundries double drying capabilities, increase sales and save space.
The award will be presented to the distributor whose partnership is most admired, and with business practices that exceed customer expectations. The winner will be announced during the Clean Show in June.
"We look for a recipient that holds the same rapport and ingenuity that aligns with our company's principles and standards," says President/CEO Joe Bazzinotti.

No stranger to Arizona Athletics, Lisa Napoleon Salgado returns to Tucson as the Director of Operations for the Wildcat women's basketball team. The 2012-13 season will mark her second in this position at UA.
"Having Lisa back working with our program is something we're really looking forward to," head coach Niya Butts said. "She is such an asset and a very hard worker. She knows the ins and outs of our program, as well as our athletic department, and that will be a great benefit to our team."
Salgado spent the 2010-11 year as an Academic Program Specialist in the department of Student-Athlete Academic Services at Florida State. She worked primarily with the men's and women's basketball teams.
"I'm thrilled to be back here at the University of Arizona," Salgado said. "I have great respect for Niya Butts and her program. I'm looking forward to this new role and bringing everything I can to Arizona women's basketball."
In total, Salgado has spent seven years working with the Wildcats in various roles. Most recently, she served as the Assistant Director of Student Development at the University of Arizona. She oversaw the academic progress for student-athletes in men's basketball, women's basketball and baseball.
Salgado earned a Bachelor of Arts degree at Montclair State University in 1995. She went on to teach for four years in the New Jersey school system before leaving to receive her Masters of Education in Counseling and Guidance from the University of Arizona. She earned her Doctorate in Educational Psychology in 2011, also from the University of Arizona.
She is married to Andrew Salgado and they have a daughter, Noel.

One of the best things about summer is all the fresh, locally grown food. It tastes so much better than the stuff trucked in from who knows where that you find in the stores in the middle of winter, and costs much less. It's healthier because it's not full of hormones, sugar and other additives. This year, don't resign yourself to eating from a can when the temperatures drop; save some of summer's bounty to enjoy later by canning!
Canning has a long history and the Ball brand canning jars have been around since 1884. Great grandma's jars may have been clear glass, but today's jars also come in blue and green with matching lids and bands. You don't have to run out and buy brand new ones; jars from Goodwill, yard sales or Great grandma's house are safe to use as long as they're not cracked or chipped. Buying new lids and bands are a good idea, since they can bend and rust.
You can reuse old jars, but unless you have someone who is going to walk you through the process, you'll need reference materials. Jarden Home Brand's website (maker of Ball jars) is full of tips, recipes, and just about anything you'd need, short of someone to deseed the jalapenos.
Don't rely on old recipes, especially if you're canning tomatoes. The tomatoes we grow today are different than the ones grown in the past and therefore must be processed differently to avoid spoilage. Nothing will ruin your drive to "eat fresh, eat local" year round than a bout of botulism. The Scott County Extension Office has a variety of resources for canning fruits, vegetables and even meat. You don't have to leave the kitchen to access these resources; they're free pdf downloads!
Don't worry if you didn't plant a garden this spring, or the weather did a number on your tomato crop. Take advantage of the numerous farmers markets in the Quad Cities! Many of the vendors have specials on fruits and vegetables that didn't grow properly, but taste as good as their neighbors. I recently picked up a big box of "ugly" tomatoes for $8 that might not look nice on a BLT but will taste great on a pile of noodles this winter. The best part about buying from a farmers market is that the money stays locally and won't end up funding some CEO's mansion on the coast.
There's still lots of time before the killing frost shuts down the growing season, so get those jars now, before they're sold out!

Model, Space Telescope, 1:40
This scale model (1:40) of the proposed Large Space Telescope was used in development work on the payload bay of an early version of the Space Shuttle. The original proposal for an orbiting observatory involved a telescope equipped with a 100-inch or larger mirror to be placed in orbit by a re-usable space vehicle. This model was among several in the collection built for concept work for such a vehicle. Budgetary considerations and feasibility issues relating to available technologies led to a scaling down of the observatory to the 94-inch Hubble Space Telescope.
Transferred from the NASA, Marshall Space Flight Center to the Museum in 1975.

Here is a theorem:
If $\{f_n\}_{n=1}^{\infty}$ is a sequence of holomorphic functions that converges uniformly to a function $f$ in every compact subset of $\Omega$, then $f$ is holomorphic in $\Omega$
Why do we use "compact subset" here?
The proof doesn't seem to use this condition.
Since $f_n$ is holomorphic, we have by Goursat's Theorem $$\int_Tf_n(z)\text{d}z=0$$ for any triangle $T$. and because $f_n \rightarrow f$ uniformly. Then by Morera's Theorem $$\left|\int_Tf(z)\text{dz}\right|=\left|\int_T (f(z)-f_n(z) ) \text{dz}\right|\leq\sup_{T}|f(z)-f_n(z)|\times length(T)\rightarrow 0$$ as $n\rightarrow \infty$ $$\Rightarrow$$ $$\int_Tf(z)\text{dz}=0$$ We can conclude that $f$ is holomorphic in $\Omega$.
It seems I don't use the compactness condition, so why does the theorem statement include compactness?

TC TO ALEXANDER CARLYLE; 18 February 1835; DOI: 10.1215/lt-18350218-TC-AC-01; CL 8:57.
[18 February 1835]
My Dear Alick,
I intended to write you a longish Letter; and behold I have literally only two minutes (not three) to write you in!
During these last days I have been very frequently thinking of you: I saw Catlinns in the Newspaper; and think Yesterday you would probably be at Dumfries, and see now some new scene before you. Take a pen my brave fellow and tell me all how it is; what you are scheming now, what you think of it.1 I know you are not afraid. Stout heart to the steepest brae!
For my own part I cannot say that I feel very sorry to consider you out of that bleak Mud Concern; or indeed out of farming altogether, if that be the way of it. No prosperity is to be looked for in that. Prices will continue cheap, I doubt; the cheapness comes from Irish corn, they say; and certainly also from the poverty of all people—obliged to eat potatoes.
Do you think of going to Annan? You will need no servants there. I can fancy Jenny and you much snugger there; Jenny thrifty, you industrious. God direct you, my dear Brother!
And so I must off. Jane is waiting for me at a halfway house she has; for we are going to dine with some people of Mill's: called Taylor, a rather goodish set of persons. How much happier should I be at this moment to step over to Catlinns; have two bowls of Jenny's tea-and-egg2 (the best tea I have tasted since last there) and spend the evening with you! But it is a bit too far.— We must be content.
Write now, and may all good be with you! We are to see one another in summer I hope.
Ever your affectionate Brother, /
T. Carlyle—

Hizb-ul-Mujahideen (HM)
Hizb-ul-Mujahideen (HM) is one of the largest terrorist groups operating in Jammu and Kashmir and stands for the integration of J&K with Pakistan. Since its formation the HuM has also wanted the islamization of Kashmir.
The HM was formed in 1989 in the Kashmir Valley with Master Ahsan Dar as its chief. Dar was later arrested by security forces in mid-December 1993. It was reportedly formed as the militant wing of the Jamaat-e-Islami (JeI) at the behest of the Inter Services Intelligence (ISI), Pakistan's external intelligence agency, to counter the Jammu and Kashmir Liberation Front (JKLF), which had advocated complete independence of the State. Many of the early Hizb cadres were former JKLF members.
In June 1990, the HM 'Constitution' was approved and Mohammed Yusuf Shah, popularly known as Syed Salahuddin, was appointed Patron and Hilal Ahmed Mir as Amir (chief). Apparently, differences between JeI elements and the non-JeI faction started developing within the HM which led to a split with one faction being led by Salahuddin whereas the other was led by Hilal Ahmed Mir (killed in 1993).
Hizb-ul-Mjuahideen is headquartered at Muzaffarabad in Pakistan occupied Kashmir (PoK), and with an estimated cadre strength of at least 1500, is presently headed by Syed Salahuddin. The patron of HM in PoK is Ghulam Nabi Nausheri.
Ghazi Nasiruddin is the outfit's 'chief commander of operations' in the Kashmir Valley. He succeeded Saif-ul-Islam alias Ghulam Rasool Khan alias 'Engineer' Zaman, who was killed in a major counter-insurgency operation on April 2, 2003, at Nowgam Chowk, on the outskirts of capital Srinagar. Saleem Hashmi is the spokesperson of the outfit.
Currently, the HM is organised into five divisions: central division for Srinagar, northern division for Kupwara-Bandipora-Baramulla, southern division for Anantnag and Pulwama districts, Chenab division for Doda district and Gool in the Udhampur district, and Pir Panjal Division for the Rajouri and Poonch districts.
The Hizb reportedly has a substantial support base in the Kashmir Valley and in the Doda, Rajouri, Poonch districts and parts of Udhampur district in the Jammu region.
The HM has conducted a number of operations against Indian military targets in Jammu and Kashmir. The group also occasionally strikes at civilian targets in Jammu and Kashmir but has not engaged in terrorist acts elsewhere.
The HM is closely linked to the Jamaat-e-Islami, both in the Kashmir Valley and in Pakistan. Overseas, it is allegedly backed by Ghulam Nabi Fai's Kashmir American Council and Ayub Thakur's World Kashmir Freedom Movement in the USA. The HM had established contacts with Afghan Mujahideen groups such as Hizb-e-Islami, under which some of its cadre is alleged to have received arms training in the early 1990s.
The HM is reported to have a close association with the Pakistani Inter Services Intelligence and the United Jehad Council, and other terrorist organizations operating out of Pakistan. Hizb chief Syed Salahuddin also heads the UJC.

My girlfriend is being called again and again from unknown numbers. She tried to block all numbers but the guy keeps calling from other new numbers. What should we do? The guy knows where she stays. So, I am quite worried about her as I stay far from her I cant do anything. Suggest something.
Author comments are in a darker gray color for you to easily identify the posts author in the comments
Change your girl friend's number and keep that number in a closed loop..
This is stalking. In many countries this is officially a crime, I don't know about India though.
Next time he calls, threaten him to send him the police, say that you will file a charge now.
Another idea, if you girlfriend does not feel the courage to do so: switch mobile phones for a while, informing you friends/collegues that your phone cannot be found and that you have a temporary phone for the next time.
Either you could pretend to now have this phone number, so he thinks she has changed her number. (Don't know if this will work.)
Or you could have a serious word with the guy, and in my view you should tell him that he is a stalker and that he can be charged and that he will charged if he does not stop.
Hope, that helps.
And if it does not stop at once, I also would change my phone number if I was her, yes. I agree with Ankit
Thanks. But she stays in Ghaziabad and I am in Gurgaon. So its really worrying us. Kha kha se aa jate hai kamine. XC
Hello Bushan,
Tell your friend to only answer calls from people she knows. If her phone is so equipped, tell her to give her family and friends one special ringtone, then when it rings with another tone, she'll know to ignore it. I do that with unwanted telemarketing calls to my mobile. The guy calling your friend sounds like a big-time stalker/hacker weirdo. And that is not the way to a lady's heart, fella.
Amy (USA)
Google "how to handle a stalker" for some ideas. Most experts will say ignoring most stalkers who call is the best first step, because answering them only teaches them how to get a response. But a very persistent stalker doesn't care and will escalate. Please be aware that she may know her stalker. It might be a co worker or a classmate. A woman I know was being stalked by her boss, whom she would talk to every day about the scary phone calls.
When I watched a show about stalkers, I saw story after story if kind, gentle women whose stalkers got worse and worse until some times it escalated into violence. Many times the women just didn't believe they were really in danger and downplayed their own fear. Other times, they sought help and received none.
One woman decided she was tired of bring afraid. She got a large dog, a gun, took shooting and self defense classes. She knew her stalker would see what she was doing because she knew he followed her. The stalking stopped.
Last year, I was getting a lot of weird calls from one number. Here in the US, you can google a number and find out where in town it comes from. If you pay a fee, you can find out the names associated with that number. I didn't have to do that: I just called the number and in a very businesslike tone identified myself and asked why I was getting so many calls from it. The man who answered hung up and he never called again. I think giving my name and not acting afraid had the desired effect.

On September 4, 2010, Grand River Sailing Club members, Phil and Lorraine Dolsen left their dock at Grand River Yacht Club, sailing their 34-foot sloop, Changes, from Grand River, Ohio to Geoergetown, Bahamas. There, they spent a warm and windswept winter, making many new friends before returning home in the spring of 2011.
Earlier this month, the Dolsens shared the story of their 277-day cruise with an enthusiastic group of club members.Talk of sunshine, fresh-caught fish, cocktail "sundowners" and loads of advice on cruising was the perfect anecdote for winter blahs on the bitter cold, snowy night they gave their presentation.
"The key factor for us going on the trip was selling the house and the determination by Lorraine that we WERE going on the trip," Phil commented.
Lorraine explained that the couple had been thinking and talking about the trip since they first got married, six years before. Then, it took at least several years of planning, making arrangements with work (Lorraine is an RN with Hospice of the Western Reserve while Phil is a retired engineer), discussing plans with family members, saving money, preparing the boat, and finally, working out all the details.
Pointing out images on the screen, the couple named off people as though they were family members. In a way, they are family members. When you sell your house, pack and store your life's belongings and say goodbye to what's been home for decades, the friendships you make while cruising often run deep and true.
The Dolsens' funny, and often touching, anecdotes were entertaining and their presentation was punctuated by questions from the floor about the finer points of ocean cruising and island hopping, answers to which they provided quite generously. A lot was covered -- from the rigors of blue water sailing to choosing whch side of an island offered safe anchorage and where to get most accurate weather forecasts. The Dolsens talked about the costs of food and supplies and described local cultures (stateside and in the Bahamas). They stressed the advantage of Phil's sturdy, home-made dinghy in a place where inflatables are easy pickings for "enterprising" thieves.
Interested in crusing? Read Lorraine's blog of the 277-day journey, which she began before they left Ohio and kept up nearly every day of the trip. It's at www.changesgoingsouth.blogspot.com.

Damian is dead and Batman is pissed and on a suicide mission to bring him back in Robin Rises: Omega #1. The comic published by DC Comics became available July 16, 2014. This issue is written by Peter J. Tomasi with art by Jonathan Glapion and Andy Kubert.
This issue starts off giving us the back story of Batman and Talia. We get to see the back story of Damian also. We get to see how he was born, raised, and died. If you haven't been keeping up on your Batman comics all you need to know is that Damian is Batman's son by Talia. He moved in to Batman and became the next Robin. He didn't listen very well and got himself killed by, here's the kicker, a clone of himself. There has been a lot of different stories going around about this comic book. We have all set around and thought of who would be the next Robin or if Batman could bring Damian back. This issue gives us a ton of answers and also left us with a ton of questions.
By the middle of the issue we get into the action. There is a huge battle between Batman, Ra al Ghul, and other good guys and some bad guys from Apokolips. This bad guys have come here looking for a shard of crystal called The Chaos Shard. Some people die and some just get punched in the face.
The story is well written and the artwork was beautiful. If definitely keeps you wanting to read more. There are also a ton of questions that this issue leaves open. How will Batman get to Apokolips? How does Batman plan to bring Damian back to life? Will there be more clones involved?

Bumble Bee Birthday (30 photos)
Sign In or Register Now
I'm in love with the photos Mia J Photography took of the bumble bee party I styled for little Samarra's 2nd birthday and I'm very excited to share them all with you. I really enjoyed working on this event. The soft colors were really pretty and I thoroughly enjoyed covering everything in cute little bumble bees.
Her mom fell in love with the cake design and wanted the entire party to be inspired from this item. I loved working with the soft colors of yellow, green and white and tried to keep the accents of black to a minimum so the design stayed light.
I designed all the printables with little bumble bees and honeycomb shapes. Even the food signs and banner were shaped like honeycombs!
The favors were bee magnifying glass, yellow and green playdough, mini Hershey bars with personalized wraps, and bubbles put into little yellow tins. I also took advantage of foods themed, which were themed especially for Easter, by buying Easter colored M&M's and separating out the yellow and green and Springtime Oreos which had yellow centers!

You put in all of the work of producing a video for YouTube, posted it and then spent lots of time spreading it around so that people know it is there. You are happy with the amount of views, and are seeing that YouTube videos are a great way of advertising your products and services. Then one day you search on YouTube for something that describes your video and are horrified to find your video has been copied and is on other people's YouTube channels. Worse yet, they are monitized so that they show ads on the videos, and they are ads for your competitors! What do you do now?
Video copyright theft is actually far more common than you would think. Basically the view of the thief is "why should I spend the time and effort to produce something of my own, when I can just copy another person's work and earn clickthrough revenue from it?" The process of copying YouTube content is literally as simple as going to any number of websites and filling in the address of the video, then uploading the content to your own channel. It is also completely illegal.
When a company that does YouTube video marketing for clients, they know a thing or two about the process of making videos for marketing purposes, and as a result we are quite protective of the work that is done for clients. The process is painstaking, from video production to editing to viral seeding. If the video does "go viral" as is the dream for any marketing campaign, then it gets seen by far more people, and far more people who want to steal it for themselves. Our company produced some of the most popular waxing videos in YouTube history for Wax Hair Removal Bar, a small waxing salon in Las Vegas and Vancouver. Even though the video is age restricted by the client's own choice, because the service itself is only available to those over 18, it professionally shows their services in a promotional way. With more than 100,000 views every month and more than two million views in less than six months, the series of videos that was produced over the course of a six hour video shoot is very popular, and has been being copied many times since the videos "went viral." What follows the work of producing the videos is the work of protecting your copyrighted content. Luckily, YouTube makes copyright violation reporting very easy for video owners. The process of reporting copied videos may be easy, but owners must be diligent to search for copies of their videos online in order to report them. YouTube does not know the video is a copy of yours until you tell them.
The procedure for reporting copyright violations on YouTube is very simple. When you find another channel has copied your video simply go to the video and let it play. Under the video and below the title and number of views you will see a small flag on the right hand side. If you mouse over the flag it will say "report." Clicking on the flag will bring up a series of options, with different issues. If you choose "infringes on my rights" then one of the next options will be about infringing on your copyrighted material and copying your video. Go through the series of options to best describe the situation and then fill in the fields where it asks for the url of the infringing video as well as your own url of the video that was copied. You can also add more videos to the list if you have found many copies floating around (we will find upwards of five copies every month of our most popular videos.) The last part of the process is to check the boxes that you understand that you are submitting a legal request and then digitally sign the request with your name.
YouTube is very serious about copyright violation on it's space, and will generally address the issue within a few days, either following up with you or simply removing the violating copies of your video from their server. This will not stop the process, as more people will continue to copy your work if they think they can make money off of it. It is good to do a scan of YouTube about once a month to see if any new violations have popped up.

Laptop Connects to WAP, But Cannot Access 'Net
Rich Shepard <rshepard <at> appl-ecosys.com>
This is a different situation, one I've not before encountered. On the Sony Vaio (running -13.37/x86_64 with the 3.2.7 kernel), wicd-client shows a connection to the local wireless access point and provides DNS servers in /etc/resolv.conf, but will not load a Web page nor allow ping, traceroute, or host commands. This happens at two different wifi hot spots. What might be missing when wicd connects to a WAP but the user cannot reach a URL in a Web browser? With the wicd gui it's possible to disconnect and reconnect to the local network but still not be able to do anything once connected. I don't know enough about wireless networking to have any idea of all the pieces. In my experience with other portables, if I could connect to a WAP I could access the 'Net. TIA, Rich

Pennsylvania Governor Tom Corbett will not challenge a same-sex marriage ruling overturning the state's ban on gay marriage. In a decision that made Pennsylvania the 19th state to recognize same-sex marriages, proponents expected an appeal from Corbett, who has been very vocal about his opposition to gay marriage. But Wednesday, a day following the ruling made by U.S. District Judge John E. Jones III, the governor decided to let the ruling stand.
Corbett cited the unlikeness of an appeal to stand as the main reason for his decision. In a statement released on Wednesday, he said that he carefully reviewed the case that challenged the ban and "given the legal threshold set forth by Judge Jones in this case, the case is extremely unlikely to succeed on appeal."
It did not, however, change Corbett's stance on gay marriage. Back in October 2013, Corbett appeared on a news show in Harrisburg, Pennsylvania and compared same-sex marriage to incest, drawing comparisons between the marriage of a sister and brother. Corbett received much criticism for the comments from gay rights advocates, but never backed down from his stance. Although he will not appeal Jones' ruling, he stands by the teachings of his faith.
"As a Roman Catholic, the traditional teaching of my faith has not wavered. I continue to maintain my belief that marriage is between one man and one woman. My duties as Governor require that I follow the laws as interpreted by the Courts and make a judgment as to the likelihood of a successful appeal."
Corbett's decision means that same-sex couples in Pennsylvania can marry without the worry of the ban being reinstated by a higher court. It also makes the state the last northeastern U.S. state to legalize gay marriage. The couples who filed the lawsuit were called courageous by judge Jones for challenging the constitutionality of the ban passed by lawmakers in 1996. As a result of their bravery, many same-sex couples in Pennsylvania are obtaining marriage licenses and fulfilling dreams of getting married and having those marriages recognized by their state.

Dear friends, today we have with us in our Hot-Seat, the famous 'facial-analysis' couple, Grant Bentley and Louise Barton. Grant is the Principal of the Victorian College of Classical Homeopathy in Melbourne, Australia. Both Grant and his partner Louise have done intensive research into miasms and their influence on facial features. This research has been applied clinically since 1999 and is now a recognized diagnostic method to determine a patient's miasm.
Dr. Bhatia – So Grant and Louise, before we start the serious discussion on miasms and facial analysis, let's start on a lighter note. Tell us something more about yourself, how you got interested in homeopathy, and what the journey has been like?
In my twenties I started studying Naturopathy which would be the most common introduction to Homoeopathy for Australian Homoeopaths. I had already qualified and was practicing Psychotherapy but felt I needed something more to complete my practice. My first book was Classical Homoeopathy by Margery Blackie and I became an instant convert on my first read. I was fascinated with Homoeopathy and its structure, something I thought was sadly lacking in Naturopathy and appreciated the quality of its author. By the time I had finished the book I knew that's what I wanted to do and I began studying Homoeopathy the next year. The journey has been an interesting one. After graduating and practice I began teaching and soon afterwards was offered the position of principal at the Victorian College of Classical Homoeopathy(VCCH), a position I still hold nearly fifteen years later.
Because my wife Louise is also in practice and is co-administrator of the college, Homoeopathy is more than a job, it is a common bond we both share. The college training I received was grounded and thorough. The patron of the college was Dr Subrata Banerjea who helped the original founder Denise Carrington-Smith, formulate a curriculum grounded in the classics. This stood me well and gave me the foundation I needed to understand Homoeopathy in a practical and clinical way. I now look on this training I received as invaluable and I consider myself fortunate to have had such teachers. Modern Homoeopathy in the west can be extremely interpretive and I feel blessed that my training was based on the solid unshakable platform supplied by Hahnemann, Kent, Allen, Roberts and the teachers I just spoke about.
I got started later than Grant. Like many other students in Australia I had already started working in a different field – personnel management. After ten years I wanted to expand my horizons – luckily I came to Homoeopathy straight away and not via any other modality – I didn't have any unlearning to do! I had been seeing a Homoeopath and was impressed with the results and the philosophy behind it. I read a few Homoeopathic books, left my job and signed up for training. In the early nineties there wasn't much choice in regard to Homoeopathic training in Melbourne – only naturopathic colleges with Homoeopathy as an elective. In retrospect I am so glad I chose VCCH as although it was small it was dedicated to Homoeopathy and quickly I became a passionate convert. As part of my training I went to India in 1995 and spent some time studying with Dr Subrata Banerjea who always made such a point of using miasmatic knowledge in prescribing. After I graduated in the mid nineties, I set up my own clinic and later began working at VCCH in an administrative role. Soon I was helping Grant with his research, running the student clinic and doing some first year training in Homoeopathy. By the late nineties we were partners, had a blended family and our own son was on the way. Somehow we still had time to talk about Homoeopathy and what became Grant's major interest – the miasms.
Dr. Bhatia – You both have had very interesting lives and it's great to see that your work has only flourished more after the two of you came together. My wife, Manisha, is also a homeopath and I don't have enough words to tell how helpful it becomes at times to have a life partner who understands your work, passion and eccentricities! Do you think your work on miasms would have been any different if the two of you were not partners in work and life?
Yes it would have been vastly different if Louise had not been involved. When I was developing this system, I thought about it, spoke about it and wrote about it 24 hours a day. I would even wake up dreaming questions to ask myself! If I didn't have anyone to bounce these ideas off, particularly someone as skilled as Louise there is no way this system would have developed as quickly and perhaps it may not have developed at all.
There is no doubt that this work is Grant's work but I feel proud to have been involved and if I can claim anything it is that I asked challenging questions! We both belong to opposite miasms and bring different qualities to the work. Grant is more abstract in his thinking whilst I am more linear. He thinks and writes about broad concepts while I streamlined the system. I suggested that each feature should get one point to help determine dominance and I came up with the triangle. I like to see things visually and like systems, so that helped to pull it all together. There is no doubt that the passion we both have for Homeopathy brought us together and has fuelled the rapid development of Homeopathic Facial Analysis (HFA). We are both amazed that it has come to this point and we are happy that so many practitioners are beginning to use it in their clinics.
Dr. Bhatia – Today you teach about miasms to everyone, but how did you learn about this very controversial theory of Hahnemann? Who were your teachers and what was your initial impression about this theory?

LOS ANGELES (LALATE) – Vincent Herbert is hospitalized tonight on Braxton Family Values (BFV). Vince Herbert was hospitalized in 2011. But until tonight, viewers never known what happened to Vincent Herbert, and how it impacted wife Tamar Braxton and the rest of the Braxton family. On Thursday night, all those details will be revealed to news and fans.
LALATE predicts that tonight's BFV episode will be the highest rated episode ever in Braxton Family Values history. At issue is the shocking revelation that Vincent Herbert is hospitalized. Herbert serves as the show's co-executive producer; he is Tamar's husband; and prior to this episode's taping, he was also Toni Braxton's manager.
When the shocking news erupted in 2011, fans of Braxton Family Values knew the situation was serious, but didn't know all the details. Tonight viewers will learn that Vince Herbert went into a coma. The situation was so serious that Tamar Braxton was asked by doctors to sign "a lot of papers" to determine Vincent's critical medical procedures. Tamar eventually fired one doctor treating her doctor because she felt he was too young. In the end, Vincent made a full recovery.

Why was Vincent Herbert hospitalized? WeTV is expected to reveal that Herbert suffered a pulmonary embolism, or blood clot on the lungs. The condition can impede one's ability to breath.
In fall of 2011, Toni Braxton had dropped Vincent as her manager and replaced him with Baumgarten Management & Productions, Inc. In the days that followed, Vincent and Tamar confirmed that they would headline their own spinoff series for WeTv in 2012.
Herbert was set to fly to Los Angeles to appear at a news conference to promote season two of Braxton Family Values. He was also about to appear at a President Barack Obama fundraiser held by Will Smith in Los Angeles.
But just months after Serena Williams suffered pulmonary embolism, Herbert while traveling in New York suffered the same medical scare.
Tamar told JET magazine months later "It went from dinner, to a doctor, to a hospital, to he's in a coma." Suddenly Tamar had to make life changing decisions. "I had to sign a lot of papers. I'm happy that we were friends because when you're going through 'what would he do?' you remember those conversations." She said the two had never had a life changing event until this scare. "It was the first thing we ever had to deal with outside of the normal relationship thing."

Tamar is depicted on tonight's BFV breaking down in tears. But she did have control during the scare to insure that Vincent got proper care. "At first Doogie Howser was his doctor, and I was like no. I want someone with gray hair."
Tamar says that the TV show has made her and Vincent closer. "Let me tell you why reality TV marriages fail… Because they're being fake, and then when they see it on TV they argue."

After Vincent was hospitalized, New York news claimed that WETV rushed to New York to capture all the dramatic moments. But much of what will air tonight will be highly edited for privacy. Lady GaGa and a series of major celebrities reportedly visited Vincent during his hospitalization.

Since the scare, Vincent is doing better. He reportedly has begun exercising, buying a dog to encourage him to take walks. He is additionally watching his health as well. The episode airs tonight on WETV.

1 dead in fire that destroyed Glendale house
One person is dead after a fire Saturday evening destroyed a home on Bridgewood Lane in Glendale.
The fire was first reported at 9:45 p.m. by a Glendale police officer who noticed it while on patrol. Fire crews responded and found the fire had taken over the front and back of the house, delaying firefighters' entry into the home, North Shore Fire/Rescue said in a news release.
The roof collapse shortly after the firefighters arrived, and the damage was so extensive that part of the first floor eventually collapsed into the basement.
Crews later were able to locate the unidentified victim on the first floor. The Milwaukee County medical examiner's office is investigating the cause of death and helping to identify the victim.
The cause of the fire remains under investigation, but it appears to have started in a first-floor living room, North Shore Fire/Rescue said. Fire crews were unable to locate any smoke detectors in the home.» Read Full Article
Bay boys sharing on offense leads to 61-39 win over Messmer
In a game that will likely have major WIAA D2 sectional seeding ramifications, the Whitefish Bay boys basketball team took a 9-0 lead on host Messmer and never looked back in earning a 61-39 victory Saturday afternoon.
"That's a tough team and the score is not indicative of how tough this game was," said Blue Duke coach Kevin Lazovik. "We were able to get stops when we needed them and we've been encouraging the kids to share the ball and they've bought in.
"When you share the ball good things tend to happen."
With the victory, the Blue Dukes improved to 15-5 overall and ran their winning streak to five games. Meanwhile, the Bishops saw their nine-game winning streak come to an end as they fell to 16-3.
Both are in the same WIAA sectional bracket.» Read Full Article
Bay boys hoops team gets defensive in overpowering Nicolet, 62-26
If the Whitefish Bay boys basketball team continues to play defense like it did against overmatched host and rival Nicolet Friday night, don't be surprised if the Blue Dukes make another strong WIAA tourney run like they did when they won the state D2 title in 2011.
The Blue Dukes limited the Knights to just nine second half points, held them to just five field goals for the night and went on a 26-0 run in the third quarter in winning their fourth game in a row and their second of the week in an easy 62-26 decision.
Coach Kevin Lazovik said the defense all comes down to communication.
"Yes, we're doing a great job of talking to one another," he said. "That's the biggest job on defense, communicating with one another. Guys stepped up and were really flying around tonight."
The Blue Dukes cemented their third place standing in the North Shore at 8-4 and improved to 14-5 overall.» Read Full Article
VIDEO: Shorewood man captures Grand Canyon from space
Shorewood — From the edge of space, even the Grand Canyon looks small.
At an altitude equal to three times the height of Mount Everest, John Flaig of Shorewood shot photos and video from his homemade weather balloon, capturing breathtaking vistas from the furthest reaches of the atmosphere.
Flaig, 39, a programmer by day, is one of few amateur weather balloon photographers in the country, and a pioneer of the burgeoning hobby.
So much so that he is the subject of a recently released National Geographic micro-documentary. The roughly four-minute film follows the trip that he and adventure filmmaker J.J. Kelley took as they launched a gadget-laden balloon last Thanksgiving to capture stratospheric shots of the Grand Canyon:» Read Full Article
Thiensville police ticket 11 at underage drinking party
Thiensville — Police busted eight underage drinkers Saturday and ticketed three Thiensville men for providing the alcohol.
According to a department news release:
Following a report of loud music at an apartment, police responded to the 100 block of Grand Avenue at 11:55 p.m. Feb. 1 and were met at the apartment door by the three Thiensville men. The officer at the door noticed beers cans in the living room behind them.
At the same time the officer heard on another officer's radio that there was a large group of people running out a rear door. The second officer chased the group as they broke into another apartment within the complex, where they were found hiding in a closet.
The eight young men and women, ranging from 18 to 20-years-old, were all ticketed for underage drinking and resisting arrest. The three 21-year-old men who were hosting them at their apartment were ticketed for providing alcohol. In total police issued 19 citations.» Read Full Article

Mequon-Thiensville district confronts challenge of keeping best-in-state performance despite declining enrollment and funding
Mequon — It's a straightforward question with a not-so-straightforward answer: How to keep the state's top rated K-12 school district up to snuff when student enrollment, and therefore funding, have been steadily decreasing over the years?
That is the quandary a newly formed committee will take on as it attempts to rectify the Mequon-Thiensville School District's high-flying performance with its perennially red ledger.
Over the years the district has attempted one referendum and implemented numerous budget cuts to offset revenue losses. Nevertheless, with an awareness that the funding dilemma could someday jeopardize the quality of education within the district, the School Board decided last year to create the committee.
In January, the board approved the 17-resident committee roster, which includes lawyers, businesspeople, education advocates, and others representing the Mequon and Thiensville communities.
The board recently brainstormed its own, six-part definition of quality education. It's now up to the committee to create a plan to financially sustain that quality.» Read Full Article
Preserving our Past, February: Ice skating in Whitefish Bay
By Tom Fehring:
Shortly after publishing a book entitled, "Images of Whitefish Bay," I received a letter from Mary Hansen Lourigan. The book included two images of men working on flooding the annual ice rink at Cahill Square, taken in the 1950s. I had assumed that the men worked for the village's department of public works. Mary recognized them and wanted to pass along their names.
"I received a copy of "Images of Whitefish Bay" as a gift. The picture of the man wearing the skates in front of the Quonset hut is Mr. Norbert Studelska. The gentleman with the fedora is Mr. Adelbert Rietz. Norbert and Adelbert were both history teachers who worked as chaperones at the skating rink. I believe the man in the center is Mr. Richard VandenAvond. He came to Whitefish Bay as a teacher after I graduated (class of '59'). I used to skate almost every night and many weekends and remember them well. Mr. Studelska and Mr. Rietz were two really good teachers.
"I have really enjoyed the book and the many memories that it has brought back."
The images that Mary refers to are shown below.» Read Full Article

Walmart begins converting former Brown Deer Lowe's
Shorewood faces $450,000 in alley work
Shorewood — Alleyways in need of reconstruction or major maintenance are likely to begin receiving more attention under Shorewood's pavement management plan.
In a report to the Village Board on Monday, Public Works Director Leeann Butschlick provided an overview of street and alley repairs completed since 2005 and an outlook of what is planned for 2014 and beyond.
As required by the Wisconsin Department of Transportation, the village rates its roadways each odd calendar year, using the state's pavement surface evaluation and rating system scale of 1 to 10, with 10 representing the best condition. The ratings apply only to residential streets, Butschlick noted, which excludes Capitol and Wilson drives and Oakland Avenue, due to their classifications by WisDOT. Although not required, the village also rated its alleys in 2013, Butschlick said.
The pavement management plan adopted by the village in 2009 takes those ratings into consideration and specifies that street reconstruction projects are to be completed in even calendar years, with a budget of $1.5 million to $2 million and coordinated with major utility, other infrastructure and development projects, Butschlick explained, and that major maintenance projects are to be done in odd calendar years, based on need, with a budget of $225,000 to $250,000.
Aside from pothole patching in various alleys and the 2011 resurfacing of the alley serving the 4400 blocks of Cramer Street and Murray Avenue, completed with Community Development Block Grant funding, no reconstruction or major maintenance of alleys has been funded since the plan was adopted.» Read Full Article

International Auto dealership could land on 51st and Brown Deer
Brown Deer — In his first year here, Village Manager Michael Hall says many residents and businesspeople have voiced a strong desire to replace an abandoned gas station at the southeast corner of Brown Deer Road and 51st Street.
"People are always asking me what's going to be done about that," he said in an interview.
The Village Board on Monday night took a first step toward action on that corner by unanimously approving a memorandum of understanding with the International Autos Group of West Allis for the gas station property and the adjacent KinderCare day care facility, 8750 N. 51st St. The village would acquire the two properties, then sell the combined site to International Autos, which would build a dealership for an unspecified luxury car.
According to its website, International Autos operates 18 showrooms in Illinois, Indiana and Wisconsin. Auto brands the group sells include Audi, Infiniti, Lexus, BMW, Mercedes-Benz, Subaru, Jaguar and Volvo.
Hall said International's dealerships include Audi North Shore, 4400 W. Brown Deer Road, and Infiniti North Shore in Glendale.» Read Full Article
River bluff housing considered for Shorewood
Shorewood officials have started negotiations with a developer for a possible housing project overlooking the Milwaukee River.
Village Manager Chris Swartz declined to provide details. The Shorewood Community Development Authority is to discuss negotiations for possible financing assistance in a closed session at its Friday meeting.
The state open meetings law allows governments to discuss such negotiations in closed session. But any action must occur in open session.
The site cover over 4 acres at 3900 N. Sherburn Place, Swartz said. It includes an industrial building that once housed Milwaukee PC, which would be razed.
The parcel is just south of where Vero Beach, Fla.-based Harbor Retirement Associates LLC will develop 94 assisted-living and memory-care apartments on a 3.2-acre site south of E. Capitol Drive, between the Milwaukee River and the biking trail overpass.» Read Full Article

West Texas A&M University President J. Patrick O'Brien believes his school's engineering program will become a "gem" among the state's other engineering programs.
O'Brien announced the launch of WT's civil engineering program Thursday morning. Beginning this fall, WT will offer a bachelor's degree in civil engineering, and the new department will be part of a larger effort to expand the school's engineering disciplines.
WT was given the green light to begin offering civil engineering after the Texas Higher Education Coordinating Board approved the school's request for the degree program on July 29.
WT started its engineering program in 2003 with the establishment of a mechanical engineering degree. The university is looking to add environmental and electrical engineering to its program offerings within the next three or four years.
O'Brien said the push to expand the engineering programs came, in large part, from the growing energy industry in the Texas Panhandle.
"Had it not been for the support that it received, that program would have not been established," he said. "This is a Panhandle-serving program."
Provost James Hallmark, WT's top academic official, said 79 students have graduated from the school's engineering program. He said 51 of those graduates are employed in the Panhandle. All of WT's engineering graduates have found employment.
"That's a tremendous benefit to the region," he said.
For the new program, WT will have three civil engineering professors. The school will expand the program by adding two more civil engineering professors during the next two years.
Because of the future addition of environmental and electrical engineering, WT will hire about 10 to 15 more engineering professors during the next four to five years.
"That's when we'll start getting serious about the school of engineering," Hallmark said about a plan to establish an independent engineering school at WT.
Currently, WT's engineering program is housed under the College of Agriculture, Science and Engineering. The university has five colleges that serve as umbrellas of academic programs.
The addition of civil engineering has necessitated the renovation of WT's old agriculture and nursing building, which will house the new program by next summer. Hallmark said WT's engineering building no longer has the capacity to adequately house all of the school's engineering departments.
The renovation of the old building is budgeted for $11 million, with $4 million coming from a state fund that pays for the renovation of buildings.
The $4 million will pay to renovate the first floor of the two-story building, and WT will turn to companies and private donors to pay for the remainder of the renovation.
More than 250 students are enrolled in WT's engineering program, and university officials expect civil engineering to help boost that enrollment number.
"The demand for civil engineering has been just as high as it's been for mechanical engineering," said Freddie Davis, the head of WT's engineering and computer science department.

In a hard fought match Paraguay and defending champions Italy drew 1-1 in the Group F opener at Green Point Stadium in Cape Town. The scoring opened in the 39th minute Aureliano Torres sent in a piercing free-kick into the box where Antolin Alcaraz cut in front of Italian midfielder Daniel De Rossi and elevated over Italian captain Fabio Cannavaro to header the Jabulani past Italian keeper Gigi Buffon into the bottom right corner of the goal for the 1-0 lead.
(AP Photo/Julie Jacobson)
The Italians drew the match at 1-1 in the 63rd minute when Paraguay keeper Justo Villar got caught in no man's land when he came out to collect Simone Pepe's corner but the ball sailed over his head and watched Daniele De Rossi beat his marker to touch it into an empty net.
(AP Photo/Themba Hadebe)
The game would end as a 1-1 draw with both teams sharing the points. Not the start the Italians wanted but our Italian Soccer Examiner says to the Azzurri fans not to worry, click here to read why. Italy next play New Zealand on Sunday, the 20th in Nelspruit at Mbombela Stadium, while Paraguay take on Slovakia the same day in Mangaung/Bloemfontein at Free State Stadium.

Her focus is to manifest the computer as an extension of her harp in a way similar to that of traditional extended harp techniques. She achieves this by specifically chosen midi controllers that are either attached to the harp or placed near the pedals of the harp allowing her to play the harp and laptop simultaneously."

The Multicolor Freshwater Pearl Necklace ($28) reminds us of that show on MTV, True Life: I'm Hustling the Hamptons. The varying pastel hues and embellished clasp make this classically pretty piece the ideal topper for that preppy dress in our closet. Because it's just a matter of time until we want to jump some hot golfer's bones. Excluding Tiger, of course.

SEATTLE — Boeing Co. said Monday that it has asked the Federal Aviation Administration for permission to conduct test flights of its 787 Dreamliner. The FAA said it is evaluating the request.
The FAA is likely to grant Boeing's request and a 787 could fly again later this week, according to sources with knowledge of the matter.
The initial flight tests will gather data on the operation of the troubled lithium ion battery system, the cause of the worldwide grounding of 787s that's now into its third week.
Boeing also wants to test a potential fix.
But 787 passenger flights won't resume soon. In terms of airline service, the Dreamliner is still likely to stay grounded for weeks, if not months, two sources said.
Even when Boeing arrives at a workable fix, its engineers will have to design, build and thoroughly test the solution.
The FAA ordered the grounding after two serious 787 battery incidents just over a week apart.

Trees are down across Central Indiana and severe weather reports are detailing the damage in Indiana. This is a picture of a tree down blocking the southbound right lane on 10th Street and Meridian.
There were several reports of 60-70mph+ wind gusts as the storms moved through.
The severe weather is over, and now there's just a chance of an isolated shower or storm for the afternoon, after the morning rain ends. Highs will top out in the upper 80s today.
Tonight temps fall into the mid 60s, and by Thursday, highs will only reach the mid 70s.
Much cooler and drier air is in the 7 day forecast as we head towards the Fourth of July holiday!
