On behalf of the Humane Society of Levy County, Inc. board of directors, I would like to personally thank you the community, sponsors, vendors, and volunteers for your recent support to the second annual "Bark-N-Purr" Charity Concert - Barbecue Cook-Off. This event could not have been a success without the help of you, the community, and the many other sponsors, vendors, and volunteers who donated their time and support.
This is Sunshine Week in the state of Florida.
No, it's not a tourism come-on to entice northerners to visit our state. It deals with open government in our state and the right of the people to know what's going on in their local and state governments.
There are two major laws that pertain to open government. One is called the Government in the Sunshine law, and it requires, with some exceptions, all meetings of governing and advisory boards of cities and counties to hold public meetings.
What's going to happen to the kids?
No one seems to be answering that question as school systems throughout the state cut budgets and programs and teachers.
The real big blows haven't hit Levy County yet, but in nearby areas things are really looking bleak.
Marion County had a big celebration honoring its rookie teacher of the year, but then it was announced that all first and second-year teachers would be laid off, all 522 of them, and that includes the honoree.
On Tuesday, March 3, 2009 there was a city-wide race for one contested City Council seat which was all that was on the ballot.
Now let me make one thing perfectly clear, although I am sure there are some that will not believe me. Debra ran a good, clean and commendable race and I congratulate her on her victory.
There's nothing like a trip to Orlando to make you appreciate what you have around here.
The journey came Saturday to watch the basketball game between Williston and Orlando Jones.
Traffic is horrible around Orlando.
I don't like to drive too much at night, so I usually stay over. Just getting to the motel was an adventure as I tried to negotiate John Young Parkway, which is now a crawlway, having lost the purpose for which it was built many years ago.
They ambled slowly up U.S. 27 approaching Levy County from Ocala.
Donna Byrne and her two horses are making a trip to Montana, and obviously they've got a long way to go.
On Monday when we caught up with her between Fellowship and Blitchton, she was going to spend the night in Bronson. Instead, she didn't even get to the city limits of Williston, spending the night at Frog's Barbecue.
She then caused a stir Tuesday as she came down Noble Avenue through the heart of Williston.
On behalf of the Williston Area Chamber of Commerce I would like to take this opportunity to thank some of the many people who helped to make our annual Installation of Officers dinner a great success.
First, our Chamber Board of Directors worked tirelessly to organize the venue, menu, door prizes, decorations, silent auction and diamond and gem giveaway. Because of their efforts we were able to provide a fresh new Installation evening for all who attended.

Bloomington, IN, July 3, 2013– The Hoosiers have long been synonymous with success on the hardwood, evoking images of basketballs swishing through the net followed by young men triumphantly cutting them down. This spring, the ping was king as Indiana Baseball took Bloomington and the Big Ten Conference by storm on their way to an historic season that culminated with a trip to the College World Series. And for the 2013 Hoosiers the road to Omaha was paved with AstroTurf®.
2013 was the inaugural season at Indiana's new Bart Kaufman Stadium, a comprehensive baseball facility complete with clubhouse amenities, press accommodations, indoor batting cages and a next generation synthetic turf system provided by AstroTurf. The customized artificial field involves a combination of unique "recipes" that combine to create an innovative new infilled-turf system specifically engineered and manufactured to replicate the various surfaces found on a baseball diamond. The result is a synthetic field that matches the playability and consistency of both grass and clay. The entire playing surface at Kaufman is artificial, including the pitcher's mound."We received a significant number of compliments from visiting coaches and players on how the Bart Kaufman Field played during its inaugural season, especially from coaches and pitchers who were experiencing the artificial surface of the pitcher's mound for the first time," said Assistant Athletic Director of Facilities Chuck Crabb. "The first season confirmed our confidence in selecting AstroTurf for Bart Kaufman Field."
While opponents may have been impressed with the AstroTurf playing surface, they were rarely thrilled with the outcome as Indiana compiled a 19-3 mark on their new home field. The Hoosiers finished the 2013 campaign with a record of 49-16 and racked up numerous accomplishments, including Big Ten regular season and tournament championships. Indiana hosted its first ever Regional of the NCAA Baseball Tournament and promptly won all three games at Kaufman Stadium. After outdueling Florida State in Tallahassee to win the Super Regional, the Hoosiers' historic run was finally stopped in Omaha, but not before this Indiana squad had claimed the University's first ever trip to the CWS."We would like to congratulate Coach Tracy and the Hoosiers on a remarkable season," said Bryan Peeples, President of AstroTurf. "We are honored that they chose AstroTurf, which is considered the finest synthetic playing surface in the world."
The state-of-the-art field features different products for the "grass" areas and base paths. The infield and outfield are comprised of the AstroTurf's GameDay Grass™ 3D Xtreme, which combines Horseshoe-shaped monofilament fibers with XP slit film fibers. The 3DX slit film base paths and pitching mound are specifically engineered to perform like clay. Both of these products feature a nylon RootZone®, which is a crucial contributor to the success of the field. The RootZone encapsulates and stabilizes the sand and rubber infill, ensuring optimal ball bounce. The proprietary technology also reduces infill migration and splash, contributing to field longevity by protecting the fibers. The warning track consists of AstroTurf's MT 38i turf, a shorter pile tufted product which has a drastically different feel underfoot than the GameDay Grass to achieve the desired warning to the outfielders implied by the track. In addition, the team at AstroTurf supplied the synthetic surfacing for the indoor batting cages."From Day One we were thrilled to be playing in our new stadium on the tremendous new artificial playing surface," said Head Coach Tracy Smith. "I'm so proud of the team and what they were able to accomplish, and we're so grateful for the support of the administration, Mr. Kaufman, and the folks at AstroTurf."
The tremendous season has reflected well on Coach Smith and deservedly so, as the skipper was recently honored by the National Collegiate Baseball Writers Association with their annual National Coach of the Year award. He has been at the Hoosier helm for eight seasons, leading them to two Big Ten Conference Tournament crowns and two NCAA Tournament appearances. During his tenure at Indiana he has mentored more All-Americans than the university had seen in its previous 62 years combined. Before taking over at IU, Coach Smith guided his alma mater, Miami of Ohio, for nine seasons, leading the Red Hawks to two MAC titles and two NCAA Tourney berths.
AstroTurf's relationship with America's pastime spans nearly fifty years, dating back to the national introduction of synthetic turf with Houston's AstroDome in 1965. The next two decades witnessed an emergence of artificial fields throughout Major League Baseball, as new stadiums insisted on AstroTurf and old facilities converted. Memories of the iconic teams and players of that era are inseparable from the unmistakable surface they played on – the dominating Big Red Machine, George Brett chasing .400, and Ozzie Smith cartwheeling into his famous backflip. The first of five World Series to be played entirely on artificial turf took place in 1980, the last with Joe Carter's walk-off winner in the SkyDome in 1993. Starting with the opening of Oriole Park at Camden Yard in 1992, the new stadium revolution began and natural grass became the overwhelming trend for these modern parks.
Today, great strides have been made in turf technology and AstroTurf has once again positioned itself as the leader of the baseball market. By synthesizing proprietary technology with innovative design concepts and engaging coaches in the developmental process, AstroTurf has engineered the next generation of baseball-specific synthetic turf. These new fields combine the look, feel, and playability of not only natural grass, but of clay with specially designed surfacing for base paths and warning tracks. But unlike natural grass, these fields require far less maintenance. In addition, the advanced drainage systems and durable surfacing allow teams to play and practice in difficult weather conditions, a huge plus for college teams whose seasons begin much earlier than their professional counterparts. As a result of this re-imagined inception of the pioneering brand, AstroTurf is once again rising to the forefront of the synthetic turf industry throughout college baseball and has re-established itself as the Official Synthetic Turf of Major League Baseball.
The 171,000 ft² artificial baseball surface was fabricated in its entirety at AstroTurf's manufacturing facilities in Dalton, Georgia. Local outfit Crider & Crider performed general contracting duties on the project, handling excavation and dynamic base construction. The installation was completed by AstroTurf-certified installer and distributor Sports Construction Management.
About AstroTurf
For athletes and sport enthusiasts, AstroTurf has redefined the way the game is played. The company offers advanced, state-of-the-art, multi-sport and specialized synthetic turf systems with proprietary engineered technologies, leveraging the industry's first vertically integrated manufacturing system. A growing number of high schools, colleges, professional sports teams and municipalities continue to select AstroTurf-branded products for their premium quality, technical superiority, and safety.

Hopefully Las Vegas equestrians did not miss the premier issue of the Southern Nevada Equestrian magazine that came out in the spring of 2010. The issue was available at local tack stores around our valley. Many of us are happy to have a magazine dedicated to all things equestrian in Southern Nevada. The magazine is planned to be published quarterly by publisher, Michelle Liles Oshins.
The first issue boasted amazing photos of local riders at both local Las Vegas equestrian events and the HITS Desert Circuit in Thermal, California. The articles covered a variety of topics such as dressage at the local Cooper Ranch, local riders competing at HITS Desert Circuit Weeks 2 &3 in Thermal, how an LLC can protect your personal assets and horse, as well as articles on local trainers, shows and clinics.
If you missed picking up a copy at your local tack store, you can still check it out on the magazine's website at http://snvequestrian.com/SNVEQ_Spring2010.pdf.

Valentine's Day Delightful Hairdos - Woo Your Loved One with Lovely Locks!
This entry was posted on February 9, 2012.
With Valentine's Day just around the corner it's time to start planning on how you're going to style your hair. Depending on the outfit you select, you may choose to go with an updo, having your hair flowing and long, or having it partially pulled up. Whatever you decide there's no doubt that you will make a lasting impression on your date and your hair is going to be gorgeous! Here are some ideas to get you inspired on how to do your hair this Valentine's Day:
A low, romantic, side bun
A low and romantic side bun is an elegant hair style that looks fabulous with a ruffle dress. All you need for this hair style is some bobby pins, a hair straightener, a curling iron, and tada! Pull your hair to the side, but make sure your hair is teased first so that it is a lose fitting bun. Then pull out some of your layered strands of hair. Keep them straight or curl them for some added elegance. Use bobby pins to pin back the bun and style it however you'd like. This is a simple, sultry, and gorgeous hair style for Valentine's Day and beyond.
Looped Locks
Another chic hair style is pinning up your locks on top of your head, creating a beautiful touseled style. It's composed of a dozen of little loops and together they all form a masterpiece on top of your head. To create this look use a curling iron to form spirals before pinning them on top of your head to form a perfect updo.
A pinned up ringlet hairdo goes with a number of outfits. Go casual and wear a pair of jeans with a slinky top, or wear a little black dress and stunning heels.
Half up, half down
What about a half up, half down hair style? To form this hair style use your favorite curling iron and curl your full head of hair, one layer at a time. After you've curled all of your locks or your hair extension, now it's time to pull half of the hair up.
You can do several different styles when pulling part of your hair up. You can braid two small sections of your hair, creating a romantic Juliet like hair style. Or, you can pull up a small section of your hair near your forehead, forming a small "bumped" look that's retro and chic.
There's also the option of pulling up half of your hair all together but keeping the hair on the top of your head straight. To go along with the straightened pulled up part (the rest of your hair below is curly and lovely), straighten your bangs and pull them out. You'll have a side swept look that will sweep your date off of his feet. ;) Maybe now this means that he'll also sweet you off of your feet too!
Whatever style you decide choose it with confidence. Selecting your outfit first will help you figure out which hair style you prefer. Whether you decide to have your hair down, up, or spiraled, create a unique look that he'll love.
Also - don't completely cover up your face. The last thing your date will want to see is you trying to get rid of your bangs every few minutes because they keep on falling in your face. To solve this problem still have side swept bags, but gently pin part of them back.
From Perfect Locks we'd like to wish you a happy early Valentine's Day!

"Joseph F. O'Callaghan has met a major, long-felt need with a clearly written, balanced, thorough survey that belongs in every history collection. His Spain is the entire peninsulaIslamic, Jewish, Christian, Portuguese, and Catalonian as well as Castilian. A substantial political narrative is followed by chapters on government, social and economic developments, and religion and culture. The author even-handedly represents the major sides in disputed issues, for his aim is to present the current state of scholarship in a simple narrative form. He has succeeded admirably."Library Journal
"Joseph O'Callaghan has now given us, for the first time, a solid and in-depth survey in English on the peninsular kingdoms, drawing together the myriad recent contributions, with the expertise of a recognized scholar in the field and the practicality of a long-time teacher of the topic. . . . Competence, thorough inclusiveness, clear organization, and solidity are the qualifiers which best sum O'Callaghan's accomplishment."The History Teacher
"This book is a comprehensive narrative history based on an impressively wide reading in the sources and secondary literature. It should prove useful to teachers, students, and general readers in European history. . . . Soundly traditional in its organization, it gives primacy to political events without neglecting institutional, social, and cultural matters."American Historical Review
"There is no existing substitute for this volume in English for the undergraduate or graduate student seeking a reliable orientation to medieval peninsular history."Choice
"O'Callaghan's A History of Medieval Spain is indispensable to the medievalist and to the Latin-Americanist alike. It is encyclopedic in nature, making it a valuable reference tool. . . . On the whole, it represents considerable familiarity with the sources of information and learned condensation of that material. The chapters on society, economy, and culture give the reader a wider view than a skeletal political history of medieval Spain." Southeastern Latin Americanist

If there's one thing Apple (NASDAQ:AAPL) shouldn't do, it's rush a product to market. But that's exactly what Global Equities Research managing director Trip Chowdhry suggests Apple should do.
"They only have 60 days left to either come up with something or they will disappear," Chowdry said, according to CNBC. "It will take years for Apple's $130 billion in cash to vanish, but it will become an irrelevant company ... it will become a zombie, if they don't come up with an iWatch."
Though it may be on the extreme side, Chowdry's notion that the wearables market is a crucial space for Apple isn't new. A number of analysts have made the case for Apple to enter the wearables space. Even Apple CEO Tim Cook has called the category "another very key branch of the tree."
But there is one major problem with Chowdry's impatient timeline.
A flop is a bigger risk for Apple than tardiness
As long as either Steve Jobs or Tim Cook have been running Apple, the company has always had a very limited product portfolio. With a concentrated product lineup, product flops could be detrimental for the company.
Consider the iPhone, for instance. Apple's iPhone business makes up more than half of its revenue and an even larger share of its operating profits. Even Apple's Mac business accounts for more than 10% of Apple's revenue. With only a few products, a flop can really damage Apple's earnings potential.
Beyond the immediate negative effects a flop could have on Apple's earnings potential, Apple's reputation is on the line every time it enters a new category -- especially in the post-Steve Jobs era. If the company is working on an iWatch, investors should hope the device isn't a typical smartwatch. Instead, it should revolutionize the entire category. Apple has a history of innovation and revolutionary new products to live up to.
Investors should be patient
Apple CEO Tim Cook has said already promised that the company will be launching new categories this year. Whether it happens in 60 days or at the end of the year will make little difference for the long-term story for Apple stock. Perhaps Chowdhry is simply getting desperate for something to happen in order for his bullish $800 price target to ring true.
For investors with a Foolishly long-term approach to investing, the biggest catalyst for Apple stock will not be whether or not the iWatch is launched within Chowdhry's timeframe. Instead, Foolish investors should be concerned whether Apple's new devices in new categories are innovative and revolutionary. If it takes extra time for Apple to get its next category right, it will be worth the wait.

Pre-Market Primer: Time Running Out for Cyprus
Vincent Trivett
Cypriot Finance Minister Michalis Sarris came back from Moscow empty handed.
As of this morning, Cyprus still lacks a viable solution to keep itself solvent after Monday. Finance Minister Michalis Sarris returned from Moscow without having secured assistance from the Russians. The International Monetary Fund and European lenders rejected Cyprus' 'Plan B,' which would have avoided a chaotic bank deposit levy. Cyprus suggested nationalizing state-owned pension funds to shore up funds for the rescue. German Chancellor Angela Merkel was also quoted saying that such a deal would be unacceptable. Reuters reported that Merkel said that Cyprus must realize that its "business model" of catering to Russian tax-dodging millionaires is "dead."
As of this morning, the Cypriot Parliament still hasn't taken a vote. Local media rumors are that it might tax deposits over 100,000 euros by 15%. With just days before the European Central Bank stops supplying emergency liquidity, today's vote might be the last chance for the country to avoid a messy default.
American shares are in positive territory ahead of the opening bell today.
(INDEXDJX:.DJI) futures are up 0.29% at 14,389.
(INDEXSP:.INX) futures rose 0.28% to 1,543.40 and
(INDEXNASDAQ:.IXIC) futures gained 0.28% to 2,777.50.
The business in Cyprus shook German confidence, according to the Ifo institute. German business confidence dropped this month to 106.7 from 107.4 in February, missing expectations.
(NYSE:BP) said that it will buy back $8 billion in shares. The company just finished selling a 50% stake in
(MCX:TNBP) to Russia's
Today is the deadline for bids to take
(NASDAQ:DELL) private. Michael Dell and Silver Lake Partners, a private equity firm bid $24.4 billion, but
(NYSE:BX), together with
General Electric's
(NYSE:GE) financial arm might also make a joint offer.
(NYSE:NKE) shares advanced 8.17% after reporting that gross margins widened for the first time in over two years. For the company's first fiscal quarter, it earned $0.73 per share, beating estimates as revenue rose 9% to $6.2 billion and net profit rose 55% to $866 million.

Children of families who dine together not only have diets higher in a host of important nutrients — including fiber, calcium, iron and folate — they also are less likely to suffer depression, a new study by the University of Minnesota recently confirmed.
Focusing on adolescents, researchers found that those who ate five or more dinners with their families were less likely to experience thoughts of suicide or experiment with cigarettes, drugs or alcohol than those who had four or fewer meals with their families. Interestingly, the positive influence of family mealtime was even more pronounced with girls than boys.
Unfortunately, less than half of children regularly have dinner with their families — with the percentage declining as they get older (while more than half of 9-year-olds in one Harvard survey ate family dinners daily, less than a third of fourteen-year-olds did). Depending on age, the average number of family chow-downs range from three to five a week.
Nationally these numbers have been on the decline, including a 33% decrease over the past three decades in families who report regularly having dinner together.
Could such plunging trend lines have contributed to rising rates of childhood obesity? Quite possibly, especially when you consider the differences in dietary patterns between those kids who eat en famille and those who eat alone, most likely devant le TV.
A recent Children's Nutrition Research Center survey found that overweight children reported eating 50% more of their meals while watching television than did their normal-weight peers. Other surveys found that those who eat with family have lower intakes of fried food and soda — both calorically dense and nutritionally negligible.
Family meals have 50% more fruits and vegetables than those consumed alone and are three times more likely to include low-fat options. These advantages don't appear to hold for families who eat together in front of the tube.

The BMW 750li measures out at an amazing 205.3 inches, which is longer than
a Cadillac Escalade, but it drives like a much smaller vehicle. Photo © BMW
Class envy is not a good thing but it's something seeping into my pores recently because I have been blessed to review such as great cars as the Jaguar XFR, Mercedes E350 and the Mercedes S550, all of which require pay grades much higher than mine (and that seems to imply I have a pay grade).
Add to that list the BMW 750li. When it comes to big, comfortable sedans that really want to run fast, nobody can beat the German manufacturers (pending the arrival of the Hyundai Equus that might be a possible competitor).
Class envy largely comes into play because I almost wish I could have been driven in this car instead of driving it. A 7 series with the "L" in its name refers to a model with an additional 5.5 inches rear legroom for a total length of 205.3 inches, which is longer than a Cadillac Escalade. That's going to make you feel like a high-power European finance minister. Unfortunately, no friends were willing to don a chauffeur's cap for me.
The oomph of this sedan when pushed is fairly impressive. Power comes from a twin-turbocharged, 4.4-liter V-8 with 400 horsepower that is mated to a six-speed automatic transmission. According to BMW, the 750i, will accelerate from 0-60mph in 5.1 seconds and the 750i xDrive reaches 60mph in 5.0 seconds flat. The 750li, according to published reports, will hit 0-60 in 5.7 seconds. That's quick for a vehicle with a curb weight of more than 4861 lbs. The engine develops 400 hp over a range from 5500 to 6400 rpm, and 450 lb-ft. of torque over the even broader range of 1750-4500 rpm.
Of course, there is a price to be paid for a sedan that leaps off the line with seemingly no acceleration lag. Your fuel economy is going to be less than sparkling. The EPA has the BMW 750li rated at 14-mpg city and 20-mpg highway. My overall figures were about 15.9. Those highway numbers will be tough to match because this Beemer simply wants to run all day at 80 mph.
The steering on the 750li makes it feel as if you are piloting a much smaller car. Lest I mix up the explanation, I'll cede to BMW's explanation of its optional Integral Active Steering. "It encompasses variable-ratio front steering, but also rear-wheel steering. Acting as an overall system, the two capabilities deliver a new combination of handling ease, maneuverability and unrivaled stability in dynamic driving conditions."
The 7 series models from BMW feature brake energy regeneration. Typically, regeneration is associated with hybrid vehicles (where the brakes charge the hybrid batteries when slowing down. The 2010 7 Series models are amongst the first US BMW models to be equipped with Brake Energy Regeneration as part of the expansion of BMW EfficientDynamics technologies into the U.S. market.
BMW says, "To save energy and reduce the vehicle's fuel consumption, this system controls the times at which the alternator charges the battery. Conventionally, a car's alternator runs continuously and thus charging is always available to the battery; in the 7 Series, it charges only when the vehicle is decelerating or braking; otherwise, it freewheels, drawing virtually no power from the engine. An electronically controlled clutch, somewhat similar to that used with the air-conditioning compressor, is added to engage and disengage the alternator."
Another aspect of the BMW 750li (and other large luxury sedans) is the ability to shift your ride for the conditions. Driving Dynamics Control allows the driver to select from four driving programs. The system works with the Electronic Damping Control (which has three-mode shock-absorber control) with transmission shift characteristics, engine response to the accelerator pedal, and steering assist and traction control level.
As mentioned at the top of this column, the BMW 750li is solely for the more affluent among us. Its starting price is $89,775 for the xDrive model loaned to me by BMW. Start to add on the extras and things get really expensive. Things like a power rear shade will cost you $1000 (but it does come with manual rear passenger shades). Active cruise control (the first step to cars that drive themselves) is $2400. All told, with delivery, the price is just north of $100,000. That's some serious coin.
Is it worth it? Yes, if one has the means for such a luxurious purchase because the BMW 750li is a great deal when compared to more expensive luxury sedans. However, there are plenty of great $50,000 cars on the road that are going to please you probably just as much. Unfortunately, those are above my pay grade. I do, however, have my eye on a 1990 Yugo that I might be able to make the payments on.

Wanted, Missing Walking Aids, Dead or Alive !
Most British households have a pair of crutches lurking under the stairs or in a broom cupboard somewhere. Unfortunately we're an accident prone lot and a large number of us have spent time hobbling around with NHS provided walking aids at some point or another. The problem is, that once we've recovered from our broken leg, twisted ankle or torn ligaments, the crutches and Zimmer frames we so badly needed are used to hang washing on or chucked into a dark corner and forgotten about.
West Herts Hospital Trust spends thousands of pounds each year supplying the walking wounded with assorted hobbling aids and we're happy to do it, but in this difficult financial climate, it's important that we try to save money wherever possible. Don't worry if you need crutches, of course, the hospital will supply them, but once you've recovered, spare a thought for that poor scrawny lad sprinting down the wing or that lady rushing round town in six inch heels that are just moments away from needing your unwanted crutches.
West Herts Trust is implementing a new "Walking Aid Amnesty" which will enable you to return all those crutches you have propping open creaky doors or providing structural support for tree houses. It doesn't seem like much but with your help the hospital could save a significant amount of money that would be put to improving patient care.
So have a think back to the time you thought it was a great idea to try roller-skating on an icy day and have a quick rummage around the house. If you find anything from the hospital that might help someone walk please return them - it might have been from any of our hospitals, maybe from A&E, the Urgent Care Centre, Minor Injuries Unit or from one of the hospital wards or the physiotherapy department. Wherever it was, we'd be delighted to take them off your hands.

Here Are the Churro Ice Cream Sandwiches That Brought L.A. to a Standstill
"I see no problem with people enjoying these desserts occasionally," says a dietitian.
Here's the churro-ice-cream sandwich, invented by Sylvia Yoo, who worked at Jean Georges and wd~50 in New York but now runs a business in Los Angeles called Churro Borough. Less than a week after they were first covered on Chow, news of the novelty was picked up by E! News, which regularly covers glitzier things, like Robert Pattinson's totally untrue Han Solo rumors and news of Katy Perry's vocal coach, so there's that.
Churros and Cronuts both start with the same letter, which is obvious. Beyond that, well, here we are, summer of 2014, primed to seek out all mash-up foods, saying things like "[the] Cronut is old news," and asking: "Finally, A Worthy Cronut Successor?" We already even know how many calories this thing might contain. ("I see no problem with people enjoying these desserts occasionally," Time's on-call dietitian says.)
In any event, Churro Borough's sandwiches are only available at pop-up events and as part of catered deals right now, but they will be at Tasting Table's West Coast Lobster Roll Rumble in August and, hopefully, at several more events before then.

What is going on with Rob Kardashian? The "Keeping with the Kardashians" star has his friends and family worried over his recent weight gain and bizarre behavior, according to a report posted on Tuesday by People.
The 27-year-old reality star turned sock designer spent the Memorial Day weekend deleting all of his old Tweets and Instagram pictures, just days after he skipped out on his sister Kim's wedding in Italy. While the Kardashian brother did fly out to Europe for the wedding, a source close to the situation told the celebrity gossip magazine that he wasn't acting like himself. He ultimately opted to fly out of Paris before the ceremony in Florence, Italy, but there was apparently no kind of family feud involved.
After his massive Twitter and Instagram purge, Kardashian started a fresh feed by tweeting out some Bible verses and Memorial Day messages to his nearly 5 million followers. Of course, his porn star infused Following list is far from religious, but that's another story.
Kardashian's unusual social media behavior may never be explained, but his absence from his big sis's wedding to rapper Kanye West may have something to do with his own insecurities about his appearance. A source told E! News that while Rob wanted to be there, he was "feeling so insecure and didn't want anyone to see him heavier like this."
Indeed, the reality star has put on quite a bit of weight since his svelte "Dancing With the Stars" days (less than three years ago, he was the runner up in the celeb ballroom competition), so perhaps his Twitter and Instragram deletions are his way of starting fresh.
TMZ previously posted some of Kardashian's social media commentary about his weight gain, in which he wrote, "I'm a grown man and will work on myself when I choose. I'm aware that I'm fat that def aint a surprise to me lol and my only therapy will be in the gym ..."
Last week the reality star was trending on Twitter for being fat, after he was photographed at LAX and in Paris en route to his sister's wedding.

St. Patrick's Day is this Monday. Are you celebrating or did you go to the parade today? If you don't have time this year to make an Irish feast of corned beef and cabbage (or even if you do), you should make this quick and easy fudge to put you in the St. Patty's spirit. It takes under five minutes to prepare, and then you have a drunken sweet dessert.
What You Need:
2 bags white chocolate chips
1 can sweetened condensed milk
1/3 cup shredded coconut
1/2 cup Malibu
What To Do:
1. In a medium saucepan, combine all ingredients except for the coconut. Mix until chocolate has almost completely melted.
2. Remove the pot from the heat and stir in the coconut pieces.
3. Pour the mixture into a 9 x 9 baking dish that is lined with aluminum foil. Make sure that the foil hangs over the edges of the dish a bit. This will make it easier to pull the entire block of fudge out later.
4. Put the baking dish in the fridge and let the fudge sit until it is completely set.
5. Carefully remove the foil from the baking dish. Cut into squares.

After shrinking a BTRFS file system using "btrfs filesystem resize /mnt -20g", this space doesn't show up as free for allocation in GParted. It doesn't seem like GParted can resize the btrfs partition on its own either. Rebooting doesn't help.
The various ways to check freespace on a btrfs volume https://btrfs.wiki.kernel.org/index.php/FAQ#Why_are_there_so_many_ways_to_check_the_amount_of_free_space.3F do show that the total space has shrunk by 20 GB.
How can I reclaim this space to use for another new partition on the hard disk?

Heshima Kenya recognizes the importance of educating our partners in government, the NGO sector, policy groups, and civil-society actors about the legal, psychosocial, and economic challenges experienced by the girls and young women we serve. Our advocacy focuses on refugee protection, child protection, and the rights of women and girls. Heshima Kenya actively works from the ground up in order to advocate for stronger protection policies and comprehensive programming.
Strengthen Identification and Documentation Strategies: Many refugees are unable to obtain the necessary documentation that gives them access to essential services. Heshima Kenya is working to ensure that refugees have the information they need about the registration and documentation process through community outreach activities. We are also working with our partners to expedite the legal documentation process for unaccompanied refugee children and young women with UNHCR.
Support Informal Education Programming: Barriers such as discrimination, limited spaces and scarce resources frequently prevent the enrollment of refugee children in some city public primary schools. To promote the right to education, Heshima Kenya is collaborating with our partners and engaging in discussions to ensure that refugee rights are included in the draft Education Bill. We have also partnered with the Department of Adult Education to implement a non-formal education curriculum formally sponsored by the Government of Kenya. This certification enables refugees, often without documentation, to sit for national exams and also receive formally recognized adult education certification.
Support Safe Shelters: We are currently working with our partners to establish and promote the development of a holistic, transitional protection shelter for women above 18 years facing protection risks.
Promote Community Education About Sexual and Gender-based Violence (SGBV): Our team conducts workshops with members of the refugee community to inform and create awareness about SGBV response and prevention and community resources. We also co-chair the SGBV Working Group with UNHCR which seeks to address issues affecting women and girls facing protection risks and strengthen policy concerning their care and safety.
Promote Awareness of Urban Refugee Crisis in East Africa: Heshima Kenya's Chicago office works to raise US awareness of the issues we are tackling in Nairobi. We host and speak at local events, conduct communication campaigns, and partner with US-based groups to ensure representation of issues facing unaccompanied refugee girls and women.
In addition to cultivating funding, Heshima Kenya's Chicago office is responsible for promoting awareness of the urban refugee crisis and engaging a supportive domestic grassroots base on the issue. Our work includes speaking at events, partnering with like-minded organizations, and raising funds and awareness for refugee work through Heshima Kenya.

Clock Shadow Building Supports the Community and the Environment in Milwaukee
Start Slideshow
- Clock Shadow Building-Continuum Architects PlannersBuilt on a former brownfield site, the Clock Shadow Building is now a mixed-use office building that includes community wellness clinics as well as a cheese factory and an ice cream shop. Basically it's a happy factory - go see a wellness practitioner for a tuneup, grab an ice cream cone and stop by for some cheese to take with you on your way out. Designed by Continuum Architects + Planners, the four-story building is equally devoted to the environment and minimizes energy use through passive design, daylighting, geothermal energy and efficient systems. It also has a green roof that grows veggies and collects rainwater for use inside the building, which has been designed to standards of the Living Building Challenge.1
- Clock Shadow Building-Continuum Architects PlannersThe developers of this underutilized parcel in Milwaukee's Walker's Point neighborhood wanted a building that achieved a mission of economic improvement, social justice, environmental restoration, and cultural celebration.2
- Clock Shadow Building-Continuum Architects PlannersOn the ground floor sits an ice cream shop as well as a cheese factory that produces artisanal cheese. These shops are complimented above by a wellness collaborative made up of Aurora Healthcare Community Clinic, the Healing Center, and CORE/El Centro.3
- Clock Shadow Building-Continuum Architects PlannersEach have long term leases and have essentially made their permanent home here in the Clock Shadow Building4
- Clock Shadow Building-Continuum Architects PlannersThe roof is occupied by a vegetable garden, which is maintained by the employees and some of the patients of the clinic as part of their therapy. Rainwater is harvested from the roof and used for irrigation and toilet flushing inside the building.5
- Clock Shadow Building-Continuum Architects PlannersFix Development had ambitious goals to make this a carbon neutral building with on-site energy generation. This proved too costly, but working in conjunction with Continuum Architects + Partners they were able to minimize energy use and buy the restwith renewable energy from the local utility.6
- Clock Shadow Building-Continuum Architects PlannersStarting off with the orientation and exterior, solar passive design maximizes light and minimizes heat gain with light shelfs and shades. Inside a geothermal system provides energy efficient heating and cooling, which along with other efficient systems reduces the building's total use to 50% compared to other standard buildings.7

The 2014 NASCAR Nationwide Series may only be two races old, with events at Daytona (Fla.) International Speedway and Phoenix International Speedway completed. With Daytona races being considered somewhat of "wild cards," there has really only been one "regular" race, that being the March 1 Blue Jeans Go Green 200 at Phoenix. That being said, it's never too early to begin looking at the championship points standings.
Only one of the two completed races was won by a Nationwide Series championship-eligible driver -- Regan Smith with his win at Daytona. Sprint Cup Series regular Kyle Busch went to victory lane most recently at Phoenix.
With only two races down and 31 to go, it's too early to really consider anyone a championship front-runner, and there are a lot of drivers close at or near the top of the championship standings.
With his win at Daytona, Smith leads the way with 83 points, but Trevor Bayne is only five points back in second. As mentioned previously, Smith is the only championship-eligible driver with a win, but he's one of three drivers with a top-five finish, the other two being Bayne and Elliott Sadler, who is third in points, only six points behind Smith and a single point behind Bayne. All three of those drivers, plus series rookie Ty Dillon have finished in the top-10 in both of the races, so far.
Here's a look at the official top-10 in the Nationwide Series points standings following the race at Phoenix:
1. Regan Smith, 83 points
2. Trevor Bayne, 78 points
3. Elliott Sadler, 77 points
4. Ty Dillon, 71 points
5. Dylan Kwasniewski, 67 points
5. Brendan Gaughan, 66 points
7. Chase Elliott, 64 points
8. Brian Scott, 60 points
9. James Buescher, 60 points
10. Mike Wallace, 55 points

A good approximation of $(1+x)^n$ is $1+xn$ when $|x|n << 1$. Does this approximation have a name? Any leads on estimating the error of the approximation?

I would just call it the first order truncation of the Binomial series. If you want more terms of the series, then it's given by $$(1+x)^n = 1 + nx + \frac{n(n-1)}{2}x^2 + \frac{n(n-1)(n-2)}{3!}x^3 + \mathcal{O}(x^4)$$ for the full series, you can visit the link I provided.
You may also be interested in Bernoulli's inequality
I would say it comes from the Bernoulli inequality. You can read it up on Wiki

Transgender Golfer Lana Lawless Sues LPGA For Right To Golf
As if it wasn't bad enough that we already let people like Vijay Singh and Tiger Woods mar our good game of golf with their bizaree darkness, we now see this fine sport is becoming the battlegrounds for the ever present gay agenda.
There is a golfer named Lana Lawless. He is a genetic transgender, that is, a secret man who veils as a woman.
Lawless wants to play golf with girls, since men have bigger muscles and can naturally play sports far better than women.
The greatest cheater of all time is Satan. He cheers for people to cheat on their marriages and their country. Why do you think he is so proud of us for letting people like Tiger Woods and Obama be 'respected leaders"?
It is because he is evil. So is chearting on your wife, Tiger Woods. So is telling lies and selling out America to Soviet terror alliances, Obama.
Lawless at least has a proper last name. Gays hate laws because it makes them guilty for doing things they enjoy like snatching children, spreading their agenda to marriage and trying to cheat at sports.
It is all horrible and I will write the PGA to tell them that golf has taken enough punishemnt. It is time for it to becaome a moral sport once more and whoever can't just be normal and play, they need to get out of our sport and go back to lesbian sports like WNBA or shooting craps dice at the pool table club, where Tiger Woods feels write at home.

Is Linux vulnerable to Java drive-by exploits?
Another computer I run on windows 7 just notified me that it was infected through Java, and I'm wondering if my Linux box (ubuntu 10) with Java installed is vulnerable.
That depends on which operating system is the target of the virus. Linux is less likely to be the target, but some viruses do target Linux as well, and some are even multi-platform.
Your browser should not be configured to automatically execute and trust Java applets. Although Chrome is the youngest browser, some protections are already available.
Plug-ins that you do not use should be disabled:
I suggest installing at least the NotScripts extension as an immediate protection.
This guy has been infected with malware through a Java and Flash exploit. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=94QsgdXnsmU
So, yes, it is possible, but very rare. You can always do a ClamAV/ClamTk scan wich can be downloaded from ubuntu software center or here
But i think Click-to-play is secure enough

Simply Three was one of two featured instrumental trios at Phoenix's funky and fabulous Icehouse playing last night's Downtown Chamber Series concert. Before the show, the group's petite violinist, New Yorker Alex Weill took time to chat with Examiner about the chemistry igniting this red hot Phoenix-founded trio.
"The great reception our live performances get is really awesome," Weill said about playing with Simply Three. For a musician who also plays with household names like Justin Timberlake, Alicia Keys, Electric Light Orchestra and Jay Z, her Phoenix trio's ovations hold a warm spot in her heart.
"The crowd gets to grooving and jamming. They feed off of our energy," she commented. The Icehouse crowd, fittingly, cheered when she leapt off the stage during one number, and again when the guys, Zack Clark and Nick Villalobos, spun their cello and bass in a flourish later in the same song.
"We're debuting a little movement and choreography at this concert. It adds some great visual effects and really amps up the show," said Weill.
The three classically trained and ridiculously accomplished musicians have bios that read like they should be well into adulthood, when instead, they're college-kid-young. Though distinguished, worldly terms like Interlochen, Tanglewood, Oberlin, Yale and Vanderbilt spark their resumes, Simply Three arranges and performs primarily pop tunes, which spread across the internet like wildfire. The mastery of skill, depth and breadth in their renditions cause bands they cover, like OneRepublic and Imagine Dragons to promote the trio's genre-hopping videos.
With the infectious energy Weill had cited, last night's audience was participation prone, and especially vocal during a smoldering, precious-metal-forged, original jazz arrangement of 'Summertime' from Porgy and Bess.
The concert was all the more fiery for the very proper classical violin-viola-flute trio who interpreted beautifully pieces by Beethoven and Handel in lovely contrast to Simply Three. Viviana Cumplido, who is also the Phoenix Symphony's Principal Flute, owns her instrument like few flutists ever have. Melting into the fluid phrases of her Classical Trio's Max Reger Serenade was a confection to be savored.
A fanning, hats off goes to Mark Dix and the Downtown Chamber Series. Keep your ears open for their upcoming concerts.
"There's usually a LOT of hard work and rehearsing and personal interaction to struggle through when chamber groups get together and try to find their own unique sound," mused Weill as the conversation wound down. "But working with these two [Clark & Villalobos]....from technique, to style, to personality, it's been just so.....so easy."
They are dynamic personalities. They are innovative performers. They are wildly talented musicians. Weill came so close to saying it herself. They are Simply Three.

The fortunes of the Italian rugby team continue to play out as much in the PR world as they do on the playing field, and recently Italian television viewers had the chance to see a few of its star players, including Mirco Bergamasco, strip on television, dancing to "Hot Stuff" from the Full Monty soundtrack.
The routine was part of the Let's Dance television show, which in itself was a total flop, but the Italian public who actually watched it would have got to see Rome's football team, with some attractive Italian football players, battle it out with the rugby trio. The not-so-unattractive Marco Borriello won the competition heading up the Roma team, but take a look at the pics of the Bergamasco brothers from their Italian rugby calendar, along with the tv strip show, and tell me if it wasn't a tough contest.

I'm using gnome in a dual-head setup with individual desktops. Is there any way to "jump" to another monitor using the keyboard only? Now the only method I know is to move the mouse pointer to the another screen and click on something there. Can I do something like that without using the mouse?
try looking up the software called "Splunk".. Seems to be a pretty highly praised desktop swapping software for linux.
Sounds like you're using Xinerama, instead of your window manager's multi-head support. If you disable xinerama, both monitors on the same workspace. (I'm not talking about a cloned view, either.)
If they are truly separate workspaces (by desktop I think you mean workspace), with separate task bars, then Ctrl-Alt- is probably the key binding will scroll between them.
You might be using Compiz or Metacity as the actual window managers. I use Compiz, and find it highly configurable. You might not have the configuration tools installed to change your default WM settings; install them and explore.
Have you tried Alt-Tab to switch between windows on the current desktop?

Postcards from Ottawa compiles photographs taken over a period of two years since I moved to the Capital in 2009. Ottawa has been a place of inspiration in my development as a photographer.
People who have visited Ottawa, and those who might have received a postcard from a friend or a relative may find some familiar scenes. However, the collection also includes photographs with an abstract look at urban life in Ottawa.
If similar emotions to those experienced when receiving a postcard, or even when sending one are evoked when browsing through this book, then the purpose of this project has been accomplished.
