From their beginnings, campuses emerged as hotbeds of traditions and folklore. American college students inhabit a culture with its own slang, stories, humor, beliefs, rituals, and pranks. Simon J. Bronner takes a long, engaging look at American campus life and how it is shaped by students and at the same time shapes the values of all who pass through it. The archetypes of absent-minded profs, fumbling jocks, and curve-setting dweebs are the stuff of legend and humor, along with the all-nighters, tailgating parties, and initiations that mark campus tradition--and student identities. Undergraduates in their hallowed halls embrace distinctive traditions because the experience of higher education precariously spans childhood and adulthood, parental and societal authority, home and corporation, play and work. Bronner traces historical changes in these traditions. The predominant context has shifted from what he calls the "old-time college," small in size and strong in its sense of community, to mass society's "mega-university," a behemoth that extends beyond any campus to multiple branches and offshoots throughout a state, region, and sometimes the globe. One might assume that the mega-university has dissolved collegiate traditions and displaced the old-time college, but Bronner finds the opposite. Student needs for social belonging in large universities and a fear of losing personal control have given rise to distinctive forms of lore and a striving for retaining the pastoral "campus feel" of the old-time college. The folkloric material students spout, and sprout, in response to these needs is varied but it is tied together by its invocation of tradition and social purpose. Beneath the veil of play, students work through tough issues of their age and environment. They use their lore to suggest ramifications, if not resolution, of these issues for themselves and for their institutions. In the process, campus traditions are keys to the development of American culture.

My dad spent a few months scanning in all the negatives we have stored up over the years. In these negatives were all of our photos from childhood. So, I found my favourites - of which there are many - and created this book so they could all be in one place. So many amazing memories!!! This book is only 12 years of photographs. Our teenage years will be the next step! So, essentially, this is our childhood in Scotland before moving to Southern California in April of 1987.

The developer of "Titanfall" has provided some comments in regards to potential new DLC products for the upcoming multiplatform video game. According to a report from GameSpot on Feb. 28, the studio confirmed that the season pass and split-screen features won't be added to the first-person shooter.
The season pass is designed for players to acquire all upcoming DLC packs, usually at a discount, at once. The split-screen local multiplayer was referenced in the beta files of "Titanfall," suggesting that Respawn Entertainment may have been planning to add support for that particular mode at some time.
On the other hand, the development team is most likely including dinosaurs and other types of monsters in "Titanfall." Several artworks, along with a teaser message, were shown in the official art book of the software product. You can find a few screens featuring the new intellectual property from Electronic Arts in the slideshow located to the left side of this article and the comments from the Steve Fukuda (the director of the project) regarding the inclusion of dinosaurs below:
Wall running ninjas? Check. Giant robots? Check. Warping spaceships? Check. Dinosaurs? Of course.
Electronic Arts already confirmed that DLC packs and in development for "Titanfall," which will be released first for the PC and Xbox One on March 11th. The Xbox 360 version of the first-person shooter has been slightly postponed with a new launch date on March 25th.

The San Francisco 49ers had every chance to win a second straight NFC championship on Jan. 19. Not only did the 49ers take a 10-0 lead over the Seattle Seahawks, in a stadium where they had been blown out in their last two visits, Colin Kaepernick was destroying the Seahawks with his legs. But while Kaepernick put the 49ers in position to win, he also ensured they lost with three fourth quarter turnovers in a 23-17 defeat.
Kaepernick's first troubling sign came when the 49ers stripped Russell Wilson on the game's first play, but couldn't even get a first down in the red zone. Settling for a field goal came back to haunt San Francisco later, yet it still looked good when Kaepernick got to 100 rushing yards by the second quarter. At that point, it didn't matter that Kaepernick was doing much less with his arm.
When the Seahawks recovered to tie the score in the third, Kaepernick finally came through with a big throw, as he connected with Anquan Bolden for the go-ahead touchdown. It took a fourth-and-seven touchdown throw in the fourth for the Seahawks to get the lead back -- and that's when the wheels fell off for Kaepernick and the 49ers.
It was Kaepernick's turn to get stripped on the next possession, yet San Francisco found a way to stuff Seattle at the goal line. But Kaepernick responded by throwing an interception to Kam Chancellor, although the 49ers kept the Seahawks to a field goal. Three plays later, Kaepernick faced a fourth down with the season and the NFC championship on the line.
That's when the good Kaepernick returned, finding Frank Gore on a big throw to keep San Francisco alive. The 49ers then got as close as the Seahawks' 18-yard-line with under half a minute left and two timeouts. One more good throw would have put Kaepernick on a Joe Montana-like level in San Francisco -- yet he threw a pass that got tipped by Richard Sherman and caught by Seattle's Malcolm Smith instead.
It was the second straight postseason that ended with Kaepernick unable to complete a big comeback, with mere yards to spare. As much as he did to get San Francisco on the brink, it was not enough yet again -- and now the 49ers have to start wondering when he will give them enough in January and February.

A friend turned me on to Leinenkugel's awhile back and just about everything they produce is excellent except for the berry flavored stuff (sacrilage if you ask me). Second the Great Lakes Brewing stuff also.If your interested in brewing your own I would highly recommend doing some reading and research before getting started. It's not hard but there's a slight learning curve involved. An excellent source for brewing supplies that I have used for years is MoreBeer.com.Hey Mike, what do you use to brew your own? I've been looking at one of those kits made by Coopers.

Google for a brew club in your area. More people are home brewing these days and most are willing to help you get started. You can usually pick up someone's start up gear cheap and find out where the local deals are or get in group purchases.
I only bottled 10gal. before I started kegging. The initial cost is a bit but the savings in time is worth every penny.

Leine's Fireside Nut Brown is just hitting shelves, good stuff. As far as IPAs, Summit Extra Pale is the old standby, Red Lodge's Bent Nail (hard to find outside of MT) is my favorite IPA hands-down. Flying Dog's Raging b-i-t-c-h is good too.

Smithwick's, Samuel Adams, like lots of the British lagers & ales I discovered on port visits during my Navy time. Also, I have recently been introduced to some good German beers through our new German deli in town; especially the dark Hefe-Weizens (wheat beer).
OK I will ask - what does IPA stand for???????????

The last six pack I bought was Sam Adams Winter Lager. Over the last year I think I have bought more Bass than anything. In my travels I have found that I like German Pilsners, lately I have been traveling in the Middle East, Kuwait and Saudi are very dry, UAE and Jordan you can get a beer at your hotel, but no local brew. Not sure I would be willing to try a local brew even if there was one. In the Phillipeans I drank San Migel and Iron Horse, not sure I would drink either if I had another choice.

Steve Jobs, the CEO of Apple, displayed the latest Apple product to the world today.
The much-anticipated flat notebook tablet computer has already been hailed as the greatest thing since Apple's last great thing (by Apple fans) and as an overgrown iPhone with nothing special to offer computer users (by non-Apple fans).
Although the Apple.com website opens with a multi-page promo for the iPad, the Apple.ca Canadian site hasn't caught up yet. Even in "Hot Headlines", there's no headline for the iPad.
Apple has announced there will be a built-in iBooks application. After Canadians waited so long to get the Amazon Kindle, it may turn out that the Apple iPad makes it obsolete.
The iPad is priced at $499 US, and is expected to start shipping in late March.
Financial Post, "Canadians can get iPad in March", Matt Hartley, Financial Post
Toronto Star, "The $499 (U.S.) iPad coming in 60 days, including to Canada", by Mark Saltzman, Toronto Star
CTV.ca, "Apple ends secrecy, reveals new gadget: the iPad", CTV.ca News Staff
It's in the comments to the various articles where the factional rivalries show up.

Jeff Rutter to Drake, tidbit on his replacement
Chris Williams
The news is now official.
Jeff Rutter, who has served as Iowa State's Director of Basketball Operations for the last three seasons and an assistant coach for the four years prior, is joining new Drake coach Ray Giacoletti. Rutter will be an assistant coach on the new-look Bulldog coaching staff.
As Cyclone Fanatic reported on Monday, ia source close to the situation tells us that some sort of a combination between current Director of Player Development Micah Byars and graduate assistant Charlie Henry will man Iowa State's ops department in 2013-14.
Iowa State has still not confirmed that news at this time.

In the summer of 2011, mild-mannered IT whiz at Sargent & Lundy by day and socialite-philanthropist extraordinaire by night, Marco Foster decided to host his birthday party as a fundraiser for One Hope United, a non-profit organization dedicated to protecting children and strengthening families.
Four years later, the White Party has exploded onto Chicago's social calendar as one of the premier charity events of the summer. For the second year in a row, the event is sold out to the tune of 500 guests coming out in force dressed in ever more spectacular white outfits to support One Hope's foster care programs.
Foster explains his decision to use his birthday as a means of raising funds for these programs, recalling, "There was a time in my life when I was young and lost in the system, also known as the Department of Children and Family Services. I was adopted by a great woman, Marjorie Foster, at the age of seven. Because of this, I'm able to relate to what a foster child and parent have to deal with. Before the age of seven, I was in numerous homes, and that can take a toll on a child. That's why I believe in what One Hope United is trying to accomplish: a safe home for every child."
Guests can expect a see-and-be-seen crowd gathering for a special purpose: to raise valuable funds for OHU's foster care work, helping prepare children for a prosperous future full of hope. The event has already received significant media coverage; in addition to several radio interviews, Marco was profiled on Fox news and appeared alongside One Hope United CEO, Scott Filer, on NBC mid-day news to give viewers a preview of what's in store for Friday.
This year, The White Party is hosted by Parliament, and guests have access to not only both inside rooms of this gorgeous space, but the newly-opened Kensington Rooftop Lounge as well.
The host committee boasts some well-known local and even national celebrities: Ryan Chiaverini of ABC's Windy City Live, Carmen Rivera from Chicago Magazine, and NBC Channel 5 Chicago Meteorologist, Alicia Roman, to name a few.
Foster always includes some special touches especially for guests purchasing tables. There are rumors of foamy light-up sticks (you'll just have to wait and see!), an exotic car appearance, and of course, a red carpet for those all-important photo opps!
If this article is just making you sad because you don't have a ticket, there is hope! Foster will be releasing 20 tickets at cost of $45 each precisely at 9:00AM on Friday morning. Better type fast though –this final batch will be gone in minutes, and no tickets will be sold at the door.
The White Party happens this Friday at Parliament (324 W. Chicago) from 8:00PM -10:00PM. For media inquiries, contact email@example.com. To give it your best shot at grabbing one of those 20 tickets on Friday morning, go to http://www.eventbrite.com/e/marco-foster-presents-the-white-party-2014-b....

Finally, in late 2010, one of her daughter's friends happened upon a listing for a job that she thought might interest Shumaker: lease administrator in the real estate department at the University of Pennsylvania. Shumaker applied. One of the things the hiring manager was looking for was knowledge of software that Shumaker had introduced to her former company; she made it a talking point during the interview.
Eventually, Shumaker was offered the job—at one third her previous salary. "I said, 'I'll take it!'" she says. "Even though I wasn't being paid to be a lawyer, I was still using the same skills. I thought, Maybe someday something will evolve that will let me expand more." Nearly three years later, Shumaker's job responsibilities have grown, and she's gotten a couple of raises. "I'm happy," she says. "Every single day I'm thankful for my job."
Hina McCree
Years out: 9; 7.5
Way back in: taking classes
Hina McCree's first timeout came in 1988, when she was pregnant with her first child. Then an engineer for a defense contractor, she quit her job to move to Atlanta from San Diego with her husband, who was pursuing his PhD at Georgia Tech. McCree stayed home for the next nine years, going to school in the evenings to obtain a master's degree in electrical engineering. She relocated twice more for her husband's career, eventually landing in Dallas.
It was there that a former professor told her about an engineering job at a telecommunications company. With two kids now in school and a fresh set of credentials, McCree, then 36, landed the spot. Four years later, she was having second thoughts. "I didn't want to be so tired when my kids asked to have three friends spend the night," she says. "I needed more quality time with them." Her solution: a second hiatus.
This time, McCree stayed home for seven and a half years, during which her family relocated to Boston. In 2006, as her kids neared college age, she decided to go back to work again. But a year and a half later, she was still jobless. "The changes in software development between 2001 and 2008 were huge," she says. "With the speed of tech, I was no longer up to date."
To catch up, McCree took a program-management workshop at the University of Massachusetts–Lowell and an online class in computer engineering. Then she reached out to her network. In 2008 her husband's colleague told her about a software engineer job at a technology firm. "At that point, I was extremely nervous because the first couple of interviews I'd gone on had been so bad," McCree, now 52, says. But this company was looking for a broader skill set than the previous ones were, and her computer class had prepared her well. She got the job.
Last year, McCree transferred within the company and relocated with her family to Baltimore. "In high-tech industries, the field changes so rapidly," she says. "Now that I'm the one hiring people, I'm happy when someone has updated their skills by taking a class or workshop."

The story of the Civil Rights struggle in Columbia is being told in an unusual way. Along the west side of Main Street, between Gervais on the south and Laurel on the north are wayside signs telling the story of various events in the 1960s related to Civil Rights.
As time has passed, most of the physical landmarks are now gone. For example, the Woolworth's that was the scene of various sit-ins and demonstrations, is now the Marriott hotel on Hampton Street.
There are 7 markers. 2 on the corner of Main & Gervais, 2 on the corner of Main & Washington, 1 on the corner of Main and Hampton(the aforementioned Woolworth's), 1 outside the Columbia Art Museum and one outside City Hall.
Together they tell the story of the Civil Rights struggle in Columbia starting with the beginnings of the movement and protests at the State House and working through such events as the integration of the city bus system and how the system changed. The last marker, outside City Hall, tells of the efforts of city leaders, particularly Mayor Lester Bates, to desegregate Columbia.
The markers were erected by Columbia SC63 which was formed to commemorate the 50th anniversary of the Civil Rights era. A quote from the first marker on Main & Gervais perhaps says it best: "Too many of our storied have never been heard. A complete rendering of South Carolina's Civil Rights Movement and it's impact on the quest for democracy and social justice does not exist. By gathering images and testimony, the mission of the Columbia SC63 project is to ensure that a more accurate and expansive history becomes familiar to all."
Next time you're walking up Main Street, take a moment to look at these markers and remember a story that matters

Rootstock Wine & Beer Bar Restaurant Review: With its ragtag mix of vintage furniture and local art, Rootstock nailed the cozy, lived-in vibe from day one. There's an emphasis on wines and beers from small producers, which means you'll likely find brews from Three Floyds and Flossmoor Station and more unusual wines such as a Txakolina from Spain. For the menu, a combination of small and large plates, the kitchen opts to use local and seasonal ingredients when possible. Start with grilled squid with chorizo, olives, beets and kale or head straight for heartier plates, like hanger steak paired with carrots, hazelnuts, shallots, mustard and tarragon. As for the cheese selection, you decide whether it makes for a good starter or savory dessert.

ABIGAIL RYSKEY models a "gunny sack" style dress at the vintage-style fashion show and tea party held at the Marenisco Township Hall Sunday afternoon. This style of dress was popular in the late 1960s and '70s.
MARENSICO - The Friends of the Marenisco library held a book signing featuring former resident Barbara Bolton at the Marenisco Township Hall Sunday afternoon.
Bolton signed copies of her first novel, "Raina's Witness," fictional novel about the truths of human trafficking.
"I lived here for a good part of my life," she said, "A lot of my friends are here and they invited me to do the signing. I'm very grateful."
After the book signing, Bolton read an excerpt from her novel and a list of statistics on human trafficking, plus tips on how to spot the issue in the community.
The book signing event was followed by a vintage-style fashion show and tea party.
The event was held as fundraiser for the children's section at the library.
Refreshments, such as tea, appetizers and desserts, were served. About 40 people attended the event.

TEMPE, Ariz.—Sun Devil Athletics recently launched its newly upgraded athletics compliance website.
The revamped website, sundevilcompliance.asu.edu, will serve as an easy-to-access destination for Sun Devil Athletics' stakeholders to learn about NCAA rules and efficiently work through Compliance Office and other SDA processes. Ultimately, the website helps demonstrate SDA's continued commitment to making NCAA rules compliance a top institutional priority.
"We are very excited to get our new website up and running," said Steve Webb, Executive Director of Athletics Compliance. "The website is one part of our office's approach to providing SDA stakeholders with the information they need when they need it in a way that's easily understood."
The website covers educational materials for all major branches of Sun Devil Athletics – coaches, student-athletes, boosters, prospects, ASU faculty and staff, and agents. Additionally, the site contains an archive for previously distributed SDA Compliance Office educational materials that is regularly updated as new educational content is created.
As part of SDA's ongoing efforts to improve interdepartmental efficiency, the site also features Compliance Office forms that can be completed and sent electronically. Along with increasing efficiency, these electronic forms replace what were previously paper processes and help ASU forward its sustainability goals. Now that the website has been launched, the Compliance Office intends to focus on moving more of its standard paperwork to electronic formats that can be accessed from the website.
Sun Devil student-athletes, coaches, staff members, and fans comport themselves with integrity – one of the prongs of the pitchfork – along with championship performance, graduation, and tradition. Playing and competing with integrity means following the rules of the game. Learn more about the rules of the game for Sun Devil Athletics by visiting the new NCAA compliance website.

According to Sunday's publication of the Daily Caller, a dog who was adopted from a rescue agency earlier this year helped his Boulder, Colo., family thwart two burglars last week.
The heroic weimaraner-pointer mix, named "Squid," heard something amiss in the early morning hours last Wednesday. Squid's guardian, Tina Fuller, told the Daily Caller that Squid is typically a heavy sleeper, but on this night, he was not only awake, but barking and growling at something outside.
Fuller's first instinct was to tell Squid to be quiet and go back to sleep, but she peeked through a window and learned what was upsetting her dog so much...two burglars, dressed in black and prowling around her cars. Squid's ability to wake his guardian, along with a quick phone call to the authorities, allowed the police to respond to the home in time to apprehend one of the suspected burglars, identified as 23-year-old Thomas Frampton.
According to CBS Denver, several stolen items were found inside of Frampton's backpack; because of Squid's vigilance, Fuller recovered what Frampton is believed to have stolen out of her vehicle.
Boulder Police Department spokesperson, Kim Kobel, commended Squid's efforts:
"Squid did a good thing. He helped us catch a bad guy."
She added:
It's possible that (the suspects) might also be connected to some other burglaries in that area,"
Squid had come a long way from his former life - before being adopted from the rescue agency, Farfel's Farm, he lived a solitary life on a chain. His new guardians told the Daily Caller that he has blossomed since the day that he joined their family; Fuller told the Daily Caller:
Now he's bright-eyed and bushy-tailed and just full of love and ready to jump in your lap at any moment,"

SANTA CLARA, Calif - Washington State women's soccer allowed three goals in the second period which sealed its 3-0 defeat against No. 23 Santa Clara, Sunday.
In their final nonconference match of the season, the Cougars (6-2-1) started the day strong. They controlled the run of play throughout the first half holding the advantage in shots (6-4) and corners (2-1), and went in the half with no points on the board for either team.
In the 11th minute, Washington State saw its first opportunity to get on the board when Bronco keeper Andi Tostanoski lost her footing after a long shot from the Cougars. Tostanoski was able to just deflect the ball enough for the Broncos to recover and kick the ball out of bounds.
The best scoring chance for Washington State came just minutes after the start of the second half when senior Brandi Vega tried to capitalize on a one-on-one shot with the goalkeeper. Her shot just missed, hitting the far-right post and allowing the Broncos to once again kick the ball out of bounds.
The first goal for Santa Clara came in the 55th minute when Julie Johnson headed in a corner kick from teammate Sarah Jackson. In the 75th minute the Broncos added to their lead, and they closed out the match with a third goal in the 89th minute of play.
"Today we played a very good Santa Clara team and they punished us for our mistakes," commented Cougar head coach Keidane McAlpine. "We played some good soccer today, but we need to be better in the final third."
McAlpine added, "Santa Clara was very efficient in front of the net, but we were very unfortunate with the call that gave them their second goal. Then the third goal came because we were trying to chase the game."
Washington State held the statistical advantage throughout the game, although those numbers were not reflected on the scoreboard. The Cougars outshot the Broncos (10-8) and tied them in corners (4-4).
Santa Clara leads the all-time series 7-0-1, including a record of 4-0-1 in Santa Clara...Cougars start exclusive Pac-12 play Friday, Sept. 28 when they travel to Salt Lake City to take on Utah...match is set for noon Pacific.

Minimum wage hikes have provided restaurant owners across the country the opportunity to tackle what many have criticized to be unfair tipping practices. Faced with rising labor costs resulting from minimum wage increases, some owners are raising costs on their foods and services and implementing no-tipping policies to help offset the increased costs for their patrons — a change that some owners are actually welcoming.
Latest Report: Technology Is "A Great Job Creating Machine," Not a Job DestroyerWritten by Bob Adelmann
After reviewing 140 years of data in England and Wales, the consulting firm Deloitte just reported that technology has actually created more jobs than it has destroyed.
On Monday the U.S. Department of the Interior issued a final approval to allow Royal Dutch Shell to start drilling an exploratory oil well in the Chukchi Sea, northwest of Alaska.
In a remarkable confluence of common sense and establishment approval, Congress is likely to look favorably upon eliminating the U.S. oil export ban this fall.

President Obama and Republican Mitt Romney are in the final week of their presidential campaigns and, folks, we've got ourselves one heck of a horse race. Many polls are simply too close to determine which candidate has the advantage and, regardless of which candidate you support, you can probably find a poll that says your guy is winning. This is an election that could very well be determined by who, including among sportsmen's ranks, turns out to vote on Tuesday, November 6. According to many analysts, a strong voter turnout tends to favor President Obama; however, this race is too tight for any concrete predictions. Even after polls close, it could be a day or two before it's all sorted out and any necessary recounts are taken.
There are likely to be many close battles among the swing states, none of which are more important than Ohio or Wisconsin. General thinking is that whomever wins Ohio's Electoral College votes will move into the White House. So, what's the latest? Based on the numbers from Rasmussen, Romney leads in Ohio for the first time (50% to 48%). At one time Obama held a strong lead in Ohio, and more recently the state was deadlocked. However, Romney's apparent lead is very small–this race remains a toss up.
Based on the current numbers, Ohio appears to be far more essential to the Romney campaign's election hopes. If Romney loses Ohio, he will not become president–unless he prevails in Wisconsin. In fact, according to a commentary piece by Scott Rasmussen, Florida was the decisive state in the 2000 election; Ohio was the all-important vote in 2004; and in 2012 it could be Wisconsin that's in the spotlight. Rasmussen writes:
The simplest path without Ohio would be for Romney to win Wisconsin, Colorado and one other swing state. It's plausible, but an uphill struggle. The latest Rasmussen Reports polling in Wisconsin shows the president up by 2 points. …
… On election night, the first places to watch will be Virginia and Florida [which Romney must win to stand a chance]. If Romney wins there, watch Ohio. If the president wins Ohio, Wisconsin is likely to be the decisive battleground state of Election 2012.
But at this time no analyst can say definitely how this race will play out. The numbers are just that tight, which means the contributions of individual voters are all the more essential. So, get out there and vote for sportsmen's interests. This year, perhaps more than ever, your vote matters.

Media Buyer Critique: FOX
The Journal's Suzanne Vranica gets media buyer Laura Caraccioli-Davis's take on FOX, which is set to present its lineup Thursday afternoon.
|Patricia Heaton and Kelsey Grammer lead the cast of "Back to You."
Media buyer: Laura Caraccioli-Davis, an executive vice president at Publicis Groupe's Starcom
Clients: Include Miller Brewing, Kelloggs and Allstate.
Pros: "Fox has less baseball this fall season, and that is good. In the past it's been like them taking a four-week hiatus at the beginning of the fall season. This year they might actually be able to launch a new series. They flatline in the fall and then they go to being idolized with 'American Idol' in January."
Cons: "They have not been able to launch a new show. Nothing sticks. 'Till Death' is on the bubble. 'Vanished,' 'Justice,' 'Drive' and 'Wedding Bells' all flatlined. I was excited at last year's upfront because I thought they had some good shows. The problem isn't the shows. It's their scheduling, promotions and marketing that didn't allow them to launch those shows successfully."
Shows that have some buzz going into the upfront?
"Back to You," which stars Kelsey Grammer and Patricia Heaton, is about a TV news program that is fighting to a make comeback in the ratings. "From the clip we saw, it looks good," says Ms. Caraccioli-Davis.
"New Amsterdam," about a detective in New York City who is immortal and thus able to solve crimes based on his past history. "It sounds cool."
"Me and Lee," about a dentist with chronic back pain who has some of his body parts replaced with bionic body parts. He is monitored by Lee Majors of "The Six Million Dollar Man." Says Ms. Caraccioli-Davis: "Folks seem to be talking about this show."

I always have a blast styling a party using Amanda's Parties To Go printable! Amanda designs the most adorable and colorful printables!
The dessert table was full of easy and colorful treats that were a feast to our tummies and eyes! To create the pallet backdrop, I glued several pieces of scrapbook paper found at Hobby Lobby to a foam board. I attached the Happy Easter Banner from the Easter Collection and added mini wreaths to the backdrop. The sweets include Kisses push up pops, Tulip cake pops, hershey's chocolate, chocolate eggs, chocolate bunnies, jelly beans and sweet popcorn. I kept the sweets simple and focused on the presentation using a lot of Spring items and took advantage of the huge items included on the Easter printable set to really make the party pop.
The craft activity was build and paint your own bird house and of course we had an Easter Egg Hunt. A fun and happy way to welcome Spring and celebrate Easter!

The first, and most important, thing to remember is that lists are your friends. A good list is like your managing partner, keeping you on track, always evolving and changing to meet current job needs. Ideally, the first thing that comes after the idea is the first list... before the first invite is sent or the Facebook event is created, it's the list. This first list may simply be brainstorming ideas for possible themes and dates, but it must be started. Remember that most of us are visual learners, so it's a good idea to have something tangible to work from.
Once you have chosen your party theme and date, make a list of all who will be invited. This list will be two columns:
- Those who will be invited via social media (Facebook event)
- Those who will need a paper invitation (school friends, grandparents or neighbors who are not social media savvy)
Next up is food or snacks for the party. A basic rule of thumb is that if the party start time is between 11am and 1pm, then you should provide some kind of actual food - such as pizza, finger sandwiches or hot dogs, etc. There's no need to go expensive, just have something available for your guests. For start times after 1pm, having only snack foods is acceptable - such as chips/dip, fruit/veggie tray, etc.
Now for the entertainment - games* (which are fun and inexpensive), bounce house or water slide, etc. Keep in mind that if you rent a bounce house or water slide, it is a good idea to have 2 or 3 games prepared for kids who get bored. Also, call the rental company early to ensure that your date is available.
Now that you have made the big decisions, it's time to create your shopping list. You should never go shopping without your list, you'll end up spending more money and missing items that you forgot to purchase. You will need to plan two separate shopping trips:
- The first trip, completed 2-3 weeks before the party, will consist of:
- Invitations
- Game supplies
- Decorations - not necessary if you want to keep the budget lower
- Non-perishable food items - chips/dips, drinks, cake mix/icing, etc.
- Paper products - plates, cups, napkins, flatware, etc.
- The second list, completed 1-2 days before the party, will consist of:

Frequently asked questions
Frequently asked questions
Service-Learning Specific questions
Instructors who are new to Service-Learning may be hesitant to incorporate a service-related project into their classes due to anticipated problems or unanswered questions. Below, we address potential concerns and offer some solutions from instructors who have "been there".
I understand that one of the benefits of Service-Learning is that it gives our students a more active, responsible role in their own education. However, I don't want to give up all control over what my students do in my class; I expect certain material to be learned.
The instructor must decide the requirements for his course and all Service-Learning projects connected with it so that course objectives will be met. These should be spelled out in the course syllabus so that students know from Day One what will be expected of them. Providing your students with a workable timetable and copies of necessary forms (available in this handbook) will allow them to do their part (contacting agencies, arranging interviews, setting up a contract, doing the agreed-upon work and providing evaluations) with your minimal involvement. However, class discussions, readings, assignments and evaluations are up to you, just as always.
I'm concerned about the kind of chaotic classroom a Service-Learning project might create. If my students are volunteering at a variety of agencies, won't it be difficult to have focused, meaningful discussions about their experiences that the whole class can appreciate? And isn't there some risk that students will give their service experience more attention than my regular course content?
It is unlikely that students will become so consumed by their volunteer work that they will lose interest in the rest of the course. Ideally, a Service-Learning project enhances and reinforces course material, allowing students to see in action those concepts, which are being explored in class.
Instructors may be pleasantly surprised to find students more actively involved in class discussions and projects because of their experiences and volunteers. Service-Learning gives students plenty to think and talk about. Although no two students are likely to have the very same Service-Learning experience, that can work to the class' advantage, as each student has something unique to share. Discussions thus take on the kind of complexity and variety that can lead to meaningful insights

By this point, and due to the previous article, now you may be somewhat familiar with what a microdermabrasion is- but let's now explore the reasoning behind the treatment. Microdermabrasion buffs away fine lines and discoloration while refining the skin's texture and hue, and increasing the production of collagen and elastin. An additional plus is that the microdermabrasion is great for scars from either pregnancy, trauma, acne, age spots, chicken pox, or scarring from surgery- so it's at least worth a try to see if this treatment will help you. Be aware that just one or two treatments may not be sufficient enough, but rather getting a series should be acquired for what you must "so-called" fix, or treat. Other things like melasma and tattoos, although not normally thought of in the same context, can too be treated by a microdermabrasion.
The improvement of your skin does actually depend on which area has been treated, but after about the third treatment the treated person will see noticeable improvements. After the third treatment people have reported that not only does their skin feel softer, smoother, and younger-looking- but any issues that were once visible are reported to be less obvious after having received treatment. Reactions to the microdermabrasion varies depending on which skin type you have, so don't make the common mistake and ask another individual, "SOOOO, how do you think it'll work for me!?" The person should answer, "DUMMY, we're two different people so I don't know, and I'm NO professional so why the hell would I know!" This is what's wrong with people as a whole now, asking any and everybody else other than who you should be asking.
Now that that's out the way, we can procede to exploring what the treatment is like. The feeling that you'll get is your skin being suctioned while micro crystals are passed and crossed over your skin repeatedly which feels like gentle scrubbing. There's different levels that the microdermabrasion machine (yes, it's a machine) can produce, so because of that you're lucky because it can be adjusted to your skin's comfort level- and possibly increase the suction power later.
This gentle, yet affective technique produces gratifying results, but do make sure to keep up with the treatments (if need be) in order for it to remain affective. Of course when the issue has been thwarted or when you see desired results, then you may start using the microdermabrasion as a maintenance tool rather than a treatment.
People of color, don't hesitate to get the treatment because you too can receive it- it's good and safe for all skin types and colors. And for people of color in America don't be afraid to try a White aesthetician because a common consensus is "White aestheticians don't know about the skin of people of color." It's understandable to carry that thought process because in America people of color have experienced a great deal of difficulty and have faced challenges when searching for acceptable make-up and skincare for all of the different shades of color and tones people of color encompass, but believe it or not there are White aestheticians out there who are skilled to perform on all skin colors, tones, and skin types because as they put it, "it's my job to be knowledgeable about all skin types, and it's my job to know." Of course there's truth in why people of color feel that way, since many have had a lot of direct experiences with White aestheticians who didn't know how to perform on skin of other ethnic or racial groups- but a job is a job and professionals from all ethnic and racial backgrounds know about all skin types so there are many White aestheticians out there who definitely know how to perform on a wider-selection of skin types other than their own kind. Just keep that in mind for next time.
That "beauty issue in America" may seem quite foreign to certain people just because there's actually people from different countries who don't even know that Black people even live in the States, let alone born in the States, so there's your history lesson of the century. Yes, unbelievable as it may seem there are in fact people from far-away lands who'll look at a Black person actually being from the States (without you being African) cross-eyed. Now you can't possibly say we don't need to aim for better cultural learning. But all in all, you can typically trust an aesthetician from any background because they all went through training, and have developed experience to get them through varied skin types. So take a chance next time, and if the microdermabrasion is of interest to you or your skin should receive something like this then don't hesitate to schedule an appointment with an aesthetician no matter of background.

U.K. Treasury vs Banking Commission: The Disagreements
Pay, bonuses, criminal recklessness. All fell under the spotlight today as U.K. Treasury Chief George Osborne backed a series of reforms aimed at changing and improving the culture of British finance.
Mr. Osborne's moves followed a report published last month by the U.K. Parliamentary Commission on Banking Standards.
He backed some of the commisson's radical proposals, including one that would make reckless misconduct by senior bankers a criminal offense. Crucially, the plan proposes to reverse the burden of proof, so it will be up to executives to prove that they took all reasonable steps to ensure they didn't break regulatory rules, moving U.K. banking regulation closer to a U.S. style system focused on punishing individuals. It's a move that "that undoubtedly chimes with public opinion," according to Alistair Graham, litigation partner at international law firm Mayer Brown.
There are ten other areas where Mr Osborne diverged from the commission's proposals.
These are:
1. Remuneration
The government agrees that remuneration should be structured to rein in "inappropriate behaviors"; that pay be linked with appropriate risk appetite; and that compensation should be clawed back when necessary. But it stops short of the commission's recommendation that this should apply to "all individuals whose action could seriously harm the bank, its reputation or its customers".
Doing so, according to the government, would go "significantly beyond" existing agreements with the European Banking Authority on "material risk-takers" and run the risk of introducing inconsistency in pay regulation. It would also mean strict regulation of junior staff whose actions are not material to their firm's risk profile.
2. The FCA and markets
The commission recommended that regulator the Financial Conduct Authority's target of "ensuring the relevant markets function well" be removed because it is a distraction from its core aims. The government disagrees with the contention that well-functioning markets are no concern of the regulator, seeing that objective as a "high level 'mission statement' that brings together the diverse aspects of the FCA's work".
3. Splitting up RBS
While the government is open to the division of RBS into a good and bad bank, it disagrees with the commission's recommendation that the good bank be further split into "multiple entities" to support the development of a more competitive retail banking market.
Leaving aside the idea that RBS is the obstacle preventing U.K. retail banking from being "diverse and competitive", which the commission seems to believe, the government is clear that such a move would "risk undoing much of the good work that RBS has done in strengthening the bank in recent years". Such a move, it says, would keep the bank out of private hands for longer and require expensive recapitalization that would fall to the taxpayer to fund.
The commission wants to abolish it; Mr. Osborne wants it to see through its task of administering its stake in the banking sector. In fact, while the government has been considering its future, UKFI has been quietly growing with the addition of Christopher Fox, who was previously head of UK banks coverage and head of UBS' financial institutions group for the Middle East and Asia, who has joined UKFI to manage its interests in Bradford & Bingley and Northern Rock Asset Management.
5. The Bank of England Court of Directors
The Court, founded at the same time as the Bank in 1694, is responsible for managing the affairs of the Bank, other than monetary policy.
The commission wants this to be turned into "a meaningful board". It may be arcane, but the government likes it the way it is, and says "in substance the Court operates along the same lines as a modern PLC board", with the governor as chief executive.
6. Chairman of the PRA
The commission also suggested that the Bank's governor be removed as chairman of the board of the Prudential Regulation Authority, the U.K.'s macroprudential regulator, on the grounds that he might be tempted to involve himself in the "detailed decisions" of the Authority, thus undermining its chief executive. But the government regards the Governor's place at the helm of the PRA as "vital" to ensuring that it works effectively with the rest of the Bank of England group, given previous failure of the tripartite system of governance.
7. The Financial Policy Committee
The commission recommended that an additional external member be appointed to take a historical view on financial stability and systemic risk. The government, however, believes the current membership of the Committee already supplies this and that its composition should not be changed "at such an early stage in its existence".
8. Special Measures
The commission wants regulators to be able to place banks on "Special Measures", a commitment by the bank to address regulatory concerns, but the government is understandably wary of the potentially catastrophic signal this could send to the markets about banks given that treatment. Citing "unintended consequences around disclosure of actions under such a regime," it quietly dismisses the idea, pointing out that the recommendation's objectives are achievable under current rules.
9. Regulatory Decisions
The commission called for a new "autonomous body" to be created to assume the FCA's Regulatory Decisions Committee. As with the Special Measures suggestion, the government "welcomes" the commission's interest but intends to disregard it anyway, noting that "the benefit of adding an extra layer of quasi-judiciary process is not clear and would likely lead to increased costs".
10. Leverage
The Basel III leverage ratio is too low for the commission, which wants to grant the FPC control over this measure much sooner than 2018, as currently planned. While the government intends to grant the FPC power to enhance the Basel requirements, it does not intend to do so before the baseline Basel III ratio is implemented, and so the FPC will have to wait until 2018 before it gains control of leverage.

When it comes to selling a property, emotions rule! Establishing exactly what you want and why from the beginning will assist you to choose the best methods of sale for you. So what do you really want? There are 3 things that remain consistent when it comes to deciding to sell:
There are many ways in which to sell your property, including the good old fashion straightforward sale! Below are the different types of sale and brief explanations for your reference.
Whichever method you and your agent choose should be right for you and your property in today's market and your agent should discuss all your options in full to enable you to make a fully informed choice.
A private treaty works best when you expect to negotiate a sale with one or maybe two buyers. In most cases the aim is an exchanged contract that is likely to contain a cooling off period and finance/pest clause. If 2 or more buyers identify themselves you have a number of options to realise a sale, with this system the contract should be unconditional. None of these end processes should be called an EOI or Tender, even though the principals may be similar.
Primarily if you expect 2 or more interested buyers and therefore there is some 'price elasticity' that could get the vendor more than expected on recent sales. The aim is to sell to the highest bidder at or after auction. Auctions provide the most transparent system of identifying the 'winning' buyer and in addition provide an unconditional contract with no cooling off. (Remember where contracts are signed after the auction on the same day of auction the contract is still unconditional with no cooling off).
This process is best described as informal compared to the others. There are variations on what the process and outcomes may be. Generally at the closing time & date the purchasers submit in writing an offer that, depending on the deal, may contain price plus extra conditions. Usually the agent will 'shortlist' the best offers with the vendor and will then go back to the shortlist with the intention of increasing price and/or limiting or removing conditions. Neither the purchaser nor the vendor is bound by the process and either can 'walk' at any time. The aim is of course to end up with an exchanged contract, though by the nature of EOI that contract may well be conditional. Most professional or development purchasers see a property being advertised as EOI as inviting a conditional deal.

Delmarva Health Network has been selected as one of more than 100 new Accountable Care Organization (ACOs) to improve care for Medicare beneficiaries.
Doctors, hospitals and health care providers establish ACOs in order to work together to provide higher-quality coordinated care to their patients, while helping to slow health care cost growth. Since passage of the Affordable Care Act, more than 360 (ACOs) have been established, serving over 5.3 million Americans with Medicare.
"Accountable Care Organizations are delivering higher-quality care to Medicare beneficiaries and are using Medicare dollars more efficiently," Secretary Kathleen Sebelius said. "This is a great example of the Affordable Care Act rewarding hospitals and doctors that work together to help our beneficiaries get the best possible care."
The ACOs must meet quality standards to ensure that savings are achieved through improving care coordination and providing care that is appropriate, safe, and timely.

Glam Masquerade Bachelorette Party (15 photos)
Sign In or Register Now
A close girlfriend was getting married so a few of us got together to plan her bridal shower. We decided on a Masquerade theme in hot pink and black, wanting a sexy feel for the night where all of us could dress up and have a ball. The bride-to-be walked in, and was shocked at the transformation of the house with all the decorations and fancy dessert table, which made all the hard work worthwhile just to see her face light up like that.
The ladies walked in and were met by a table filled with props (colourful masks, pearl necklaces, rings, sceptre, and wands) which doubled as the photo booth area. We wanted a fun and elegant setting and went with a damask backdrop and hanging decorations. They were told to catch the bride-to-be for a picture using the Polaroid camera as it would be included in the scrapbook that we would make for her later.
The dessert table featured cookies shaped in corsets and wedding gowns, moist dark chocolate cupcakes and rich creamy chocolate mousse. We also included an apothecary drink dispenser with Virgin Island Punch, Masquerade Mojitos in jars, Sexy Sangria in mini wine glasses and Fizzy Nectar (soft drink) in decorated mini milk bottles. The drinks were a hit with the ladies and definitely livened up the atmosphere.
We also served canapés and finger food that were easy to make but lovely to look at. They were served in cupcake cases, cut glass compotes, lovely white platters and plated up beautifully. Sandwiches, prawn and fruit skewers, pasta and DIY tacos never looked so good.
After a lovely night, the ladies went home with a gift bag prepared by the bride-to-be, which includes a face mask, mini nail polish and mini hand cream. The bride-to-be also wrote personalised cards to each guest thanking them for attending the party and detailing why each of them were special to her. What a great way to end the party.

Natural Products Expo West is a whirlwind of companies, products, and natural foods crammed into three days. Since I have already penned my top 20 gluten-free product picks, I want to share my favorite events surrounding the expo, talk about trends, and cover some of the odd products I encountered.
Trends, trends, trends. Every year brings new trends and old ones remain with a slight face lift. Gluten free and Paleo products were forefront with everything from whoopie pies to dog treats. Coconut products are still big (drinks, chips, caramels, etc.), as is: kale and sriracha flavored everything. Dried fruit snacks were prevalent, as were hummus, and alternate forms of sugar in drinks, baking mixes, in liquid form, and by the bag. A number of companies unveiled refreshed packaging and logos along with B Corporation certification.
There were lots of drinks this year that were really weird and made me wonder if they are part of a growing trend, or a passing fad. This year brought: algae milk, artichoke water, birch tree water, cactus water, and dehydrated coconut water powder.
I tried the birch water from Byarozavik and it actually tasted pretty good, like a non-fizzy version of Fresca with naturally occurring electrolytes, but it does contain xylitol. The dehydrated coconut water powder from Coco Hydro was interesting, but to me its sweetness was overwhelming. I didn't try the cactus or artichoke water because neither sounded or looked appealing. The hands down weirdest thing I tried was vegan smoked salmon from Sophie's Kitchen. While it smelled on point, it was like eating a piece of pink plastic. Chapul's cricket bars weren't far behind on the odd meter, but I couldn't bring myself to try them.
I attended two great events at this year's expo. One was a breakfast sponsored by Boulder Brands that showcased Udi's Gluten Free, Glutino Foods, and Earth Balance gluten-free products. No empty seats were to be found and guests were treated to live music, Suja Juices, smoothies, pancakes, eggs, potatoes, passed hot bites, assorted muffins, bars and toaster pastries, and a toaster station full of breads and bagels too. It was hog heaven for someone like me who usually can't find many safe breakfast options.
The second event was sponsored by Whole Planet Foundation and Think Thin and it raised $65,000 for its cause. The Whole Planet Foundation, along with Grameen America and other finance partners provide micro loans for more than 250,000 women in 59 countries. These inspirational women can turn $200 into a thriving business that allows them to not only support their families, but the community as well. It was overwhelming to learn about these women and how determined they are to make a positive change in their lives.
I was also on hand to enjoy the musical styling of Michael Franti at the yoga session sponsored by Bhatki Chai. Although I didn't participate in the yoga session, I did do a little dancing to Say Hey (I Love You), which is a great way to start the day. There were the most adorable kids on stage singing and dancing too.
The date has been set for Expo West 2015 and I will definitely be there to see what new products, events, and trends it brings.
