'Loser' set to lose again
Jason Ferguson
Published: Thursday, January 17th, 2013
A year ago at this time, Dawn Ramsey was six months away from her 30th class reunion and wanted to lose 30 pounds before the big event.
Ramsey, a Hermosa resident, joined forces with her sister-in-law and fellow Hermosa resident, Crystal Wiles, to form the "Hermosa Hopefuls"�and set out on the Custer County Chronicle's "Biggest Loser"�contest, hoping to shed that weight.
Together, the two dominated the competition, with Wiles placing first, Ramsey placing second and the team lapping the field in terms of weight lost. By herself, Ramsey shed 27-1/2 pounds through diet and exercise.
Prior to joining the Chronicle's "Biggest Loser,"�Ramsey had joined another weight loss contest with nine friends, in which they each paid $50 to enter and the winner took all the cash. That wasn't nearly as successful as the "Biggest Loser"�proved to be.
"It was very helpful (having a teammate),"�she said.�"We called each other and kept each other in check. We really got down to business two weeks before the weigh-ins."
Ramsey said she worked out two to three times a week for the first couple of weeks of each month and then worked out virtually every day the last two weeks before each weigh- in.
"The thing I�like about this is that it's six months,"�she said.�"It was very exciting (finishing second). We were always first in the team. This year, I'm getting first."

Universidad Carlos III de Madridwww.uc3m.es
Although the Universidad Carlos III de Madrid (UC3M) is a relatively new institution, it has already established leading programs in the areas of Economics, Business Administration, and Law, while its efforts in Engineering and research are becoming quickly recognized internationally. In addition, it is among the first universities in Spain to comply with the new European Higher Education Area requirements (part of the Bologna Process). Faculty and students come from around the world to join UC3M in its role as a truly global institution.
Local university courses are available in the following disciplines and most are taught in English. Spanish is an option for some. In addition to attending the standard class sessions at Universidad Carlos III, IES Abroad students will also participate in a required weekly tutoring program that provides additional academic support and practice for each class.The tutoring program is managed by Universidad Carlos III and is factored into the overall number of credits; the student's performance in the tutoring program forms part of the overall final grade of the course. Disciplines include:
Location & Commute Time
The Universidad Carlos III de Madrid has three campuses, with its Engineering school located on the campus in Leganés, a cozy suburb just south of Madrid's city center. The campus is easily accessible by public transportation. The commute time from IES Abroad Madrid Engineering housing to UC3M is approximately 45 minutes by train.
Universidad CEU San Pablowww.uspceu.com
Universidad CEU San Pablo is a non-profit educational organization created by the Asociación Católica de Propagandistas. For almost 80 years, CEU San Pablo has been dedicated in providing educational excellence to its students. CEU San Pablo alumni are among some of the top professionals and entrepreneurs in Spain.

Interning abroad as part of your study abroad experience will help distinguish your application for graduate school or a job opportunity in today's competitive market. It's an exhilarating challenge, and we're here to help guide you in securing your placement and succeeding in your internship.
Participating in an internship abroad helps you:
All of our engineering internships are supervised and earn IES Abroad credit. You participate in a seminar to complement the practical experience you gain during the internship.
We want to make sure that your greatest challenge is deciding which landmarks to see first or discovering the best café-not finding a place to live where you feel comfortable. We do our best to locate housing that is reflective of how the local students are living. Our goal is that when you leave Madrid, it will feel like home.
Homestays – Live in Spanish homes with señoras or families and eat breakfast and one additional meal per day (either lunch or dinner) with your hosts when the program is in session. In many cases, more than one IES Abroad student is placed with a señora or family.
Homestays with Kitchen Privileges – If you are interested in a homestay but prefer to purchase your own food and prepare your own meals, you may wish to consider this option. With this option, you receive a meal credit. A very limited number of these placements are available.
Apartments– Share apartments located in residential areas in Madrid. Apartments are furnished and feature fully-equipped kitchens. Utilities, regular cleaning, and wireless Internet access are included, as well as the support of a Spanish compañero. Space is limited, and meals are not included.
Colegio Mayor - Colegios Mayores are dorms located on the Complutense campus and throughout the city. This housing option includes up to 20 meals per week in student cafeterias.
Colegios Mayores are ideal for outgoing students with a high level of Spanish language who want to integrate into local, more traditional student culture, participate in Colegio activities, and are willing to abide by the rules of the Colegio. This housing option is limited and requires an additional fee.
Part of making you feel at home in Madrid is doing our best to help you feel safe and cared for. Whether it is an orientation program that makes you feel prepared, housing that is well-located and comfortable, or the field trips that take you places off the beaten path—we're all about our student services.
The program begins with an orientation that introduces you to the IES Abroad Madrid staff, your fellow students, and the city of Madrid.
Additionally, CORE™, IES Abroad's Comprehensive Orientation & Re-entry Experience, begins during orientation and continues throughout the semester with activities focusing on cultural adjustment, goal achievement, and preparing for the return home.
Take course-related excursions to high-tech companies throughout Madrid to become familiar with the Spanish work culture. Participate in intensive Spanish language classes throughout your first two weeks.
Redefine the way you live and learn in Madrid through our cultural activities, such as:
University Clubs & Events
There are many opportunities for you to participate in the life of the city alongside local Spanish students at the Universidad Carlos III de Madrid (UC3M). We encourage you to take advantage of the any extra-curricular activities open to you at UC3M. More information will be given on-site.
Even though your adventure starts in Madrid, our field trips take you beyond the city to discover the culture and traditions of your host country. Some of these one to three-day trips are subsidized by IES Abroad, while other trips are available and may be subsidized by IES Abroad. Here are a few possible destinations.

Everything you wanted to know about United Way California Capital Region and more! If you don't see an answer to your question, please contact us.
Who is United Way California Capital Region?
Your local United Way is an independent local affiliate of United Way Worldwide, and we serve five counties: Amador, El Dorado, Placer, Sacramento and Yolo counties.
For more than 90 years, United Way California Capital Region has brought people together as first responders on needs in the Sacramento region and changed the lives of hundreds of children, families and adults. Now United Way is mobilizing nonprofits, companies, schools, government and individuals across the region, state and country to make a collective impact in the areas of education, financial stability and health.
Who runs United Way California Capital Region?
Your local United Way is managed by a staff of nonprofit professionals and is governed by a local board of directors that represent our community.
What do you do?
We are tackling the biggest issues facing our community: Education, Financial Stability and Health. By focusing on the big picture and bringing together companies, nonprofits, schools, government and individuals across the region, state and country, we can help thousands in our community.
Why should I give to United Way?
United Way gives you the opportunity to change your community. We've helped hundreds of lives in our region through our specific projects, but now we're aiming for thousands. We want to transform our community, so we're leading the charge and calling it Collective Impact:
- We can make a bigger difference by recognizing that people's education, financial stability and health are linked.
- We can make an impact for generations by recognizing that these challenges are often passed down in families in a cycle.
- We can reach thousands of local people in need when we bring together companies, schools, government and individuals across the region, state and country.
You have several options for giving and getting involved:
- Donate to United Way and stand behind the change you want to see in your community.
- Give to your favorite nonprofit, whether or not it's one of our certified nonprofit partners. Our only requirement is that it be a tax-exempt 501c3 organization in the United States.
- Join one of our action groups: Women in Philanthropy, Young Leaders Society, Student United Way and Retiree Giving Club.
- Volunteer by signing up for a one-time or ongoing project through our online Volunteer Center. Consider bringing your friends, families or co-workers along!
We also offer payroll deduction, which gives you the chance to give a little at a time instead of one lump sum at the end of the year. It's a win-win: By paying a little at a time, you actually give more in the long run, and nonprofits receive a steady stream of money without the costs of fundraising.
What are United Way's focus areas?
A pillar of Collective Impact is recognizing that people's education, financial stability and health are linked. Here is one example of how Collective Impact can change lives:
Meet the Jones Family.
Max's family can't afford nutritious food so he joins our Healthy Meals program and his family learns money management through our financial stability work.
Since Max is eating healthy, he misses less school and catches up on reading through our education work.
Since Max improves his reading, he graduates from high school. Since Max graduates, he can get a job that pays enough.
Since Max has a job that pays enough and knows money management he can afford nutritious food so his son is healthy and ready to learn.
Max and his family are thriving!
Here are just a few examples of United Way's impact:
- Education. We're helping kids read at grade level and running the local Campaign for Grade Level Reading. 41% of 739 kids are now reading at grade level.
- Financial Stability. We're connecting households and foster youth with financial knowledge and resources, and leading the local Assets & Opportunity Network. 86% of 413 adults are demonstrating better financial skills and 90% of 336 foster youth are earning in matched savings accounts.
- Health. We're helping kids and teens eat better and exercise more and heading up the local Healthy Meals program that provides kids healthy after-school meals and snacks. 96% of 4,190 kids have improved on the school Fitnessgram Test and more than 130,000 healthy meals have been served.
How did you choose your Focus areas?
We used a data-driven process that included a multi-county needs assessment, multiple town hall and regional meetings and a blue-ribbon task force of community volunteers to decide on our areas of focus.
How does United Way raise money?
More than 400 local private and public sector companies and organizations support United Way through workplace giving campaigns.
Which local companies support United Way?
More than 400 local private and public sector companies and organizations support United Way through workplace giving campaigns.
Who is United Way's CEO?
Our President and CEO is Stephanie Bray. Stephanie is a nonprofit professional with nearly 25 years of experience in fund development and volunteer management for local, regional and national organizations. Prior to taking this position, she was Executive Director of the San Francisco General Hospital Foundation, a supporting organization for San Francisco General Hospital and Trauma Center. Stephanie also previously served as Assistant Dean for Health Sciences Advancement at UC Davis Health System, overseeing fundraising for the School of Medicine, The Medical Center, the Betty Irene Moore School of Nursing and several other centers of medical excellence on the UC Davis Sacramento Campus. She has served in fundraising leadership positions with the American Cancer Society, UNCF/The College Fund, Learning Ally, and the University of Medicine and Dentistry of New Jersey. Stephanie is a graduate of Douglass College, Rutgers University, and was a participant in Harvard Business School's Strategic Perspectives in Nonprofit Management in July 2012.
What is the relationship between our local United Way and United Way Worldwide?
United Way Worldwide is the leadership and support organization for the nearly 1,800 communities in 40 countries around the globe. Our United Way is a separately incorporated nonprofit with our own CEO and Board of Directors.
Does United Way California Capital Region support Planned Parenthood?
UWCCR does not fund Planned Parenthood. Donors can designate their money to any 501(c)(3) organization in the country, which includes Planned Parenthood.
Why aren't the Boy Scouts on the list of Certified Nonprofit Partners?
In order to be one of our Certified Nonprofit Partners, a nonprofit must sign a statement saying that it does not discriminate on the basis of age, sex, religion, ethnicity or sexual preference. When we put this policy into place a number of years ago, the Boy Scouts opted not to reapply for certification. However, people can still give to the Boy Scouts by designating their money directly.
Does United Way California Capital Region support Boy Scouts of America?
UWCCR does not fund Boy Scouts of America. Donors can designate their money to any 501(c)(3) organization in the country, which includes Boy Scouts of America.
How is United Way associated with the NFL?
United Way and the NFL have the longest running public service advertising campaign and sports/charity partnership of its kind. All NFL representatives appearing in United Way ads are volunteers who receive no compensation. The NFL pays for production costs and airtime. There is no cost to local United Ways for the spots.
What is United Way's overhead?
Our current overhead is 18.88 %.
Is United Way's overhead higher than that of other nonprofits?
At 18.88%, we are well within the range organizations like the Better Business Bureau say is acceptable.
Does United Way charge a fee for giving to the nonprofit of my choice?
We deduct a small amount (usually about 15%) from a gift before passing it on to a designated nonprofit. This covers our cost of raising the money and making sure it gets to where the donor wants it to go.
Why should I give to United Way and not directly to my favorite nonprofit?
With United Way, you are doing more than giving to one nonprofit: You are giving to change. We have a team of the best and brightest nonprofits, companies, government bodies, volunteers and donors working to change our community in the areas of education, financial stability and health.
What can I do if I feel I was forced to give to United Way through a workplace campaign?
Giving is a personal matter and decision; no form of coercion is acceptable to United Way. We work with campaign representatives to balance providing incentives with not making people feel coerced. If you have felt coerced during a United Way campaign, please contact us to ask questions and provide feedback.
Can United Way provide me with medical, health or some other kind of assistance?
If you need non-emergency help, please dial 211 if you're in Sacramento County.

SUWANEE, Ga. – The Southern Collegiate Athletic Conference (SCAC), in conjunction with Birmingham-Southern College and the BSC Student-Athlete Advisory Committee, raised $1,900 at its annual men's and women's basketball tournament through the sale of autographed basketballs from the various teams competing at the event. Special Olympics was selected as the beneficiary of this year's effort.
"We had a very successful weekend at Birmingham-Southern and I would like to thank all the families and fans who made generous contributions to this charitable effort," said SCAC commissioner Dwayne Hanberry. "All of NCAA Division III has partnered with Special Olympics this year, and the SCAC is proud to make this donation as part of that partnership."
A check was presented to Wendy Bigham, senior public relations manager of Special Olympics Georgia, and Maria Johnson, a Special Olympics athlete, at the conference office on Wednesday morning by SCAC Director of Communications, Russell Kramer and SCAC Director of Sports Information, Jeff DeBaldo.
In 10 years of tournament competition, the SCAC has teamed with its tournament host school to benefit a local or national charity. Since the first event in 2003, over $20,000 and hundreds of pounds of canned goods have been donated to various charities from the generous donations made by patrons of the SCAC basketball tournament.
Wilson Sports, which supplies the official basketball of the annual tournament, donated the 24 collectible basketballs emblazoned with the 2012 SCAC Tournament logo.

History of Rock & Roll
Paul McCartney in History of Rock & Roll
Paul McCartney (b. 1942) was a founding member of The Beatles, the most successful rock and roll band in history. Along with John Lennon, the English singer/songwriter McCartney was one of the two most important figures in driving The Beatles' artistic evolution (bandmates George Harrison and Ringo Starr also contributed to the band's unique sound). Following The Beatles' breakup in 1970, McCartney went on to have a long and successful career as a solo act and in the band Wings.
McCartney and Lennon began playing together in a Liverpool band called The Quarrymen in 1957, when both were teenagers. In 1960, they changed the band's name to The Beatles; in 1962, with the band's four-man lineup finalized, they signed their first record contract. The Beatles almost immediately experienced huge success on the British charts—their second single, "Please Please Me," peaked at #2 late in 1962—and became superstars on this side of the Atlantic by early 1964, as "Beatlemania" swept the nation. Over the course of the 1960s, The Beatles would release dozens of top hits and bestselling albums, their musical style evolving from classic rhythm and blues to experimental psychedelic rock. The group long benefited from a creative tension between McCartney's ear for melody and sentimental lyrics and Lennon's more adventurous sonic experimentation, but eventually the differences between the two men, compounded by the pressures of immense fame and success, tore the band apart. McCartney remains one of the most beloved elder statesmen of the rock world today.

Leeward Community College Wai'anae (LCCW)
is a satellite campus, on forty-nine acres near
the geographic center of Oahu, between Pearl City
and Waipahu, on the beautiful Wai'anae coast of
Oahu, overlooking Pearl Harbor. It provides
comprehensive educational opportunities, from
professional studies to liberal arts. Community
outreach includes cultural activities on the main
campus, and an education center serving Wai'anae
draws nearly 98,000 people to the campus every
year. Featuring a diverse student population and
experienced and caring faculty, LCC has provided
access, affordability, and a high quality
education to the people of Hawaii since 1968.
Solid academic transfer courses, cutting-edge
media programs, and in-demand career and technical
education are just a few of the reasons why so
many students have chosen Leeward Community
College. Outstanding programs include business,
education, digital media, computer networking,
culinary arts, engineering, and the sciences.
Free tutoring and job placement assistance are
focused on helping students reach their
educational goals. Leeward Community College
opened its doors in the fall of 1968 as the first
college in the University of Hawaii system to be
developed without a connection to a pre-existing
technical school. The college's guiding principle
was "innovation" -- a readiness to depart from
tradition in order to bring the best of current
educational practices to our students. In the
spring of 1969, the College moved to its current
location. Since those beginnings in inauspicious
temporary facilities, enrollment in credit classes
has grown to place the college among the largest
community colleges in the State. Approximately
6,000 students are regularly enrolled each
semester in liberal arts and career and technical
educational programs offered on campus, at
off-campus locations in the community, and through
distance education courses
The growing interdisciplinary use of information
systems has increased the need for a comprehensive
program in Computer Science. Such a program is
offered by Leeward CC through the Division of
Mathematics and Natural Sciences. The course
credits are transferable at the Bachelor's degree
level. The curriculum leading to an Associate in
Science degree in Computer Science is designed to
prepare individuals for employment as technical
assistants to professional and administrative
personnel using computers. Students may choose
one of three areas of specialty: Network Support
Specialist, Database Support Specialist or
Webmaster. Skills in writing, speech, accounting,
economics and mathematics complete the preparation
for employment. Students wishing to pursue a
Bachelor's degree in computer science may,
instead, want to earn an Associate in Arts degree.
See a counselor or ICS Faculty Advisor for
appropriate course choices. An
Associates in Science degree
is offered, as are several
Certificates of Completion.
For more information, please call (808) 455-0506

A teacher friend brought these up to school while I was taking yearbook pictures (my PTO contribution this year). They were YUMMY!
I haven't tried to make them yet --
4 sleeves Premium Saltines
1-1/4 cups canola oil
2 Tbsp. Crushed Red Pepper (Pizza Pepper)
1 Tsp Garlic powder
1/2 Tsp. Onion powder
1 pkg. Dry Ranch Salad Dressing Mix
Stand all crackers on their edges (like papers in a file) in a large bowl or Dutch Oven. Have a second bowl of similar size ready.
Mix all remaining ingredients in a small bowl to become a dressing.
Pour this mixture over the crackers. Let the dressing drain down and let set for 15 minutes. Transfer the crackers into the second bowl by hand. Reuse the same 'dressing' over the crackers again. Let sit for 15 more minutes. Repeat this cycle 2 more times.
Remove crackers from any remaining liquid and store in an air-tight container.

Darbyville Academy
is a school unlike any other. You won't only find lessons in Math or Chemistry here; you'll also find a small community of outcasts, people born or raised with special powers or abilities, that set them apart from the rest of society. People who might be persecuted or humiliated because of their powers.But in Darbyville Academy they can find a place of solace and learning, where they are taught to control their abilities and intergrate into society. Of course, the school can't remain a total secret and some 'normal' people don't like the fact that thes students could be part of a 'super army' that could easily knock out any military force currently in operation. There have been attacks on the school, both physically and socially.However, by and by, the students live happy and normal lives - as normal as they can. At Darbyville Academy it's not unlikely to encounter werewolves, wizards, angels and demons; hence the students nickname:
Demon High.

The room was all ready, all she needed now was the students. The tables where pushed to one side the chairs removed completely from the room. It was the first lesson of the year and although a little late in the year she had been a little busy. Still better late then never she supposed and she was hoping today would prove to be interesting. Most first lessons of the year where though there was always the awkward matter of getting some of the more full of themselves students to pay attention. The ones who thought they didn't need to because they already knew it all. Maybe there would be none like that this year, still she wasn't going to hold her breath and wait.
Her long dark hair was tied loosely back and she was wearing her combat clothing, a simple pair of black shorts and a white t-shirt, the room was well heated so even though it was winter outside inside it was a warm, a little warmer then spring. The same enchantment as ever was on her room making it look like the forest outside, the only difference being the trees in her room still had leaves on and the sky was a bright blue.
She wasn't sure how many students to expect, she knew how many had signed up but often others came along and some who had signed up didn't. Still she didn't mind as long as she got a couple genuinely interested in her class she would be happy. Overall she enjoyed teaching, she enjoyed helping people to learn, when they actually paid attention to her that was. Which she had to admit more often than not they didn't seem to.
Still the class should be interesting, she thought sitting on the edge of her desk, if anyone actually arrive. Not that class had actually started yet anyway.

Erin checked the time on a big clock set on the wall. It was still too early to go to her next class, but she didn't have anything better to do. She set off in the direction of the 'Magic Class 101' classroom at a brisk walk. Her black converse made no noise because she was stepping on the ends of her jeans, a blessing and a curse in her opinion. Her strawberry blond hair was pulled up into a neat ponytail and curled in ringlets down to her shoulders. She was wearing a black jacket with a grey long sleeved shirt underneath that had a boat neck.
Erin shook her head in annoyance. She didn't want to take this class. Not because she didn't like school, but because there would be other people in the class. Probably a lot of other people. This wasn't one of those classes where you could sit in the back and listen without being noticed. This was one of those classes where you had to participate, and talk to people. She scowled at a passing student. Why would
want to participate in a class like that? Why would anyone like mingling with people? She crossed her arms, a sure sign that she was in one of her bad moods. This class, she decided, was going to be a nightmare.
Once Erin reached the classroom, she knocked softly on the door and walked in. A strange sight met her eyes. For a moment she thought she had walked outside. There were trees, and a very blue sky overhead. Much too blue to be the cold, dreary winter sky that day. Plus the trees still had their leaves. Erin puzzled over this before taking a few more steps.
"Hello?" She called softly. Then she spotted the teacher and to her surprise saw that she was wearing shorts. That was when Erin realized that the room was a lot warmer than the hall. She slid her jacket off and draped it over one arm. "Hi, I'm Erin." She didn't look at the woman in front of her but continued to stair at the trees and the sky around her.

Rated 5 out of 5�by zooobe Compression shorts Fit good, great quality, just a bit pricey. Representatives at Dick's were very helpful. January 29, 2016
Rated 4 out of 5�by Douglas Fits smaller than other brands Dicks services and purchase was perfect. Product was not bad, just the fit is smaller than other brands fit. October 25, 2015
Rated 5 out of 5�by CindyLouHou2 Great shorts! These are just as described and work well for my husband's use of them, especially given the low cost compared to all the other big-name brands. He officiates baseball and football and needed something to wear under his uniforms that would accommodate a cup and help with chafing. These do the trick! We originally ordered a size Large, but the elastic in the waist is pretty stout (wide and not real stretchy) so we returned and re-ordered an X-Large--much better fit. Dick's free shipping on apparel was super fast through UPS, I was able to return the first pair to the local store, and the second order was on our doorstep before I ever even received the email saying the order had shipped. Very pleased with the shorts, the purchase experience through Dick's, and the shipping time. Highly recommend. :-) September 5, 2015
Rated 4 out of 5�by Stefano Good fit, flexible and lightweight. Good fit, flexible and lightweight. Adequate and a good purchase. Excellent turn around with delivery. Could be more compact packaging to fit in mail slot. March 10, 2015
Rated 5 out of 5�by 23nikefan Best pair of compression shorts I own! I had $20 in dicks cash that I needed to spend. So I purchased this and thought that it wasn't going to be as good as the Nike or Adidas ones. I WAS WRONG!!!! This pair of compressionshorts is the best pair I have ever bought. They are very smooth and not scratchy like others I own. The construction of the shorts is very good, I don't feel like I have to be gentel in them. They can clearly withstand rigorous circumstances. The only thing that I don't like about them is the cup pocket. When I am wear a cup it holds everything in place nicely. When I am not wearing a cup the mesh that is on the fly has such big holes that you can practically see right through it. You see skin, which is weird and I don't like it. So I either just always make sure I wear my cup or when I go to change I make sure the cup pocket lining is pulled all the way to the top of the shorts so you any see skin. March 2, 2015

Internet Self-Regulation and Fundamental Rights
Ian Brown
University of Oxford - Oxford Internet Institute
January 21, 2010
Index on Censorship, Vol. 1, March 2010
Governments have recently been looking to deputise ISPs so as to regulate cyberspace more firmly. In particular, they have encouraged ISPs to take actions to address online copyright infringement, the online exchange of images of child abuse and the use of the Internet to promote terrorism. While these schemes are more flexible and less burdensome than statutory regulation, they commonly lack the procedural fairness and protection for fundamental rights that are encouraged by independent judicial and parliamentary scrutiny. Few schemes include any substantive protection for individuals' rights to freedom of expression, association or privacy. They are often introduced under the threat of legislation or litigation, agreed and operated behind closed doors "in the shadow of the law" with little participation by or consideration for citizens.

Some tips for completing:
- Don't try to get too perfect with laying the leaves down. Leaves by nature have imperfections and it looks more rustic when all the corners are not completely flush against the jar.
- If you're pulling your hair out with getting them to stick, another option is to cut out pieces of napkin (with leaf designs); napkins are much easier to adhere.
- Wet or iron your leaves before you adhere them so they become more bendable.
- Let the Mod Podge become very tacky to the touch before applying the leaves. Also, if needed pull off the plastic veins on faux leaves to help them lay better. (The leaves used in this craft don't have a plastic spine)
- Use your fingers. It helps when trying to mold the leaf around the jar.
- You shouldn't need to but if you're concerned about falling leaves, spray the jar with a clear varnish, when you're done to seal it.
- Don't use Ball mason jars, the ridges on them won't allow the leaves to lay flat. This is why I chose a plain jar from the dollar store.

Wisconsin offered $195 million in state and local incentives to lure General Motors Corp.'s new small car plant to Janesville, officials who worked on the failed bid said Tuesday.
Wisconsin lost a high-stakes bidding war for the plant with Tennessee and eventual winner Michigan last month, when GM picked Orion Township north of Detroit to assemble small and compact cars.
Wisconsin's $195 million offer included $115 million from the state, $38 million from local governments in and around Janesville and about $42 million from the private sector, according to officials who put the deal together.
Tennessee Gov. Phil Bredesen said last week that GM had wanted "north of $250 million" upfront to select Spring Hill, Tenn. near Nashville, but his state offered only about $20 million in training and education money in addition to long-term tax breaks.
Neither state came close to Michigan, which pulled together a tax credit package worth $779 million over a 20-year period, according to the Michigan Economic Development Corp. The package included state business tax incentives awarded to GM in previous years that otherwise would have gone unused by the automaker. About $300 million were new credits for job preservation.
Troy Clarke, GM's president for North America, said last month that all three states made "very attractive offers" but that Michigan officials were "very creative and brought a whole package."
Wisconsin's $115 million contribution to the state's bid consisted mostly of tax credits and energy efficiency grants, along with a "small smattering of economic development tools," said Zach Brandon, executive secretary for the state Commerce Department.
Brandon said he had no regrets about the offer.
"We knew it was an uphill battle from the beginning," Brandon said. "We knew based on a lot of factors that Michigan was going to be tough to overcome."
A news release from Janesville said the city promised $15 million plus savings of up to $1 million a year by offering to operate the plant's wastewater facility. Rock County promised $20 million in incentives, while Beloit pledged $2 million.
All incentives were tied to GM keeping at least 1,200 workers at the plant for at least 10 years.
"I know the Wisconsin offer was quite exceptional but there are a lot of factors that go into a decision like this," Beloit City Manager Larry Arft said.
Janesville City Manager Eric Levitt said officials decided to release the bid information Tuesday because negotiations were over and they had received a request from the Janesville Gazette.
All three states had sought the plant in hopes of saving jobs amid struggling economies.
Janesville, a city of 60,000 about 75 miles southwest of Milwaukee, had 14.3 percent unemployment in May -- the third-highest statewide. The Janesville plant, which had been operating since 1918 and was GM's oldest, employed about 1,200 people before it closed in April.
The Tennessee plant currently employs about 2,500 people, but their future is uncertain once GM stops making the Chevrolet Traverse around Thanksgiving.
About 1,200 jobs will be saved at the Michigan plant, which had been slated to close later this year before GM decided to build the new car there.

- The Doctor Is In: 5 Tips To A Healthy Family Vacation
I'm really very happy. I have great people in my life, a lot of love and support, and a clear idea of what's important to me.
I would tell my 16-year-old self that life is so much bigger than you think. Be open to it, don't fear it, and don't limit yourself. You can do anything. And don't eat so much junk food.
Perseverance in working to attain your goals, and belief that you can, are key to moving forward. Also, recognize that sometimes you need to ask for help and people are usually happy to give it.
I want to share my first-hand insight of family life with diabetes with as many people as possible, and strengthen my presence in my profession. I want to maintain my good health by continuing to eat a whole food, plant-based diet, and achieve a near-daily yoga practice. I want to run a 10K in less than an hour. I want to strengthen my relationships and connect better with people, decrease my electronic distractions, and read more. And finally, I want to spend more time with my kids getting out and really doing things and seeking new experiences.
It's an evolving notion, but for me happiness comes from presence. Enjoy the people around you. Talk to them. Share. Be open. Also, know yourself. Take a cold, hard look at your strengths and weaknesses, forgive your mistakes, rejoice in your successes, and work mindfully to improve the not-so-pretty parts. Be present and ever-grateful. Be compassionate and share some love.
Physical activity always brings me back when things start to feel difficult or overwhelming. Running is a great way for me to let loose and get my heart rate up. Yoga brings me out of my head and into my body. I know if I'm feel mopey or self-doubting that it's probably been too long since my last workout.
My biggest regret is not growing up and developing myself more before I started my family. I missed out on opportunities to travel easily and to know myself better. I also wish that I'd built a career before I dropped out of it for so long. It's been an arduous process getting back in the door again.
The most important lessons I'm teaching my kids are flexibility and simplicity. Life is a constantly changing process to which we must adapt quickly. Circumstances change, environment changes, responsibilities and time constraints change. Looking inward for strength and stability, and valuing non-material blessings over things and possessions, will ease them through their lives, and help them successfully navigate the inevitable ups and downs.
I stay up too late at night! It's easy for me to get started on a book or a project and before I know it the midnight hour has long gone. It's so hard to give up those few precious hours of alone time after my kids are finally slumbering, but I know I need more sleep to be my best the next day, and to stay healthy.
I'm most proud of the perseverance and patience I've maintained in re-entering my field. It's been a very long process full of false starts, long waits, disappointments, and tail-chasing. I've worked hard to network, to re-familiarize myself with the dietetics profession, to build an online portfolio, and to develop the skills to best present the level of professionalism and expertise I have to offer. All of these things have lead to a position that is a perfect fit for me. A Dream Job, if you will.
This is a tough question to answer because I've had insanely happy points in all stages of my life. Like I said, life is a series of ups and downs and I'm constantly learning new things about myself and what supports happiness for me. In general, my happiest times are when I'm productive, adventurous, and giving and receiving a lot of love.
Introspective, playful, driven, organized, focused, adaptable, confident, messy, capable, patient.

Opening With a Bang, Plus Some Boos
It didn't take long for the Internet to get grouchy about NBC's coverage of the Olympics. Some of this, of course, is just the Internet doing what the Internet does — demanding unprecedented awesomeness, then quickly appending a #fail tag to everything that falls short. But there is something strange about the time-shifting that occurs thanks to the differences in time zones, the 24/7 vigilance of online media and NBC's totally normal and totally disorienting dedication to putting primetime events on primetime television, even ones whose results have been available for hours. This was notably jarring Sunday, when news of a number of big-ticket upsets and unexpected losses broke in real time, and then unfolded in living color and on tape-delay later that evening.
There were many smaller-bore upsets and great performances, too: Warren Buffett's favorite female table-tennis player scored a big surprise win, for instance, and American skeet-shooting ultra-legend Kim Rhode shot herself into Olympic history thanks to the greatest shooting performance on record. But audiences knew about the unexpected results in the women's gymnastics competition and men's 4×100 freestyle relay by the time those results played out on television. Oddly, that served only to complicate the drama of watching superstar U.S. gymnast and reigning world champion Jordyn Wieber get edged out of a spot in the all-around final by teammates Gabby Douglas and Aby Raisman, and reigning swimming superhero Ryan Lochte looked unexpectedly human while coughing up a lead in the last and decisive leg of the relay. One type of suspense was swapped for another, and the viewing experience was not ruined so much as it was enriched with a strange, inevitable dread. The Olympics being the Olympics, it works even when it doesn't quite work.
Wieber was eliminated primarily because of a suddenly very unpopular new rule that places "national limits" on the prestigious all-around competition, which ensured that only two U.S. gymnasts would make it. But she also lost her spot because the team on which she competes is a juggernaut and because Raisman, much to the delight of her her epically intense parents, delivered a brilliant performance. "In the end," ESPN's Bonnie D. Ford writes, "Wieber fell victim not so much to her own incremental flaws in execution as she did to the depth in her own country."
Wieber wound up suffering both from her sport's new rules and the dominance of her teammates. "This is the cutthroat machine [Martha] Karolyi and her husband Bela have built with American gymnastics," Yahoo's Dan Wetzel writes. "Wieber posted the fourth-best score overall — Russia's Victoria Komova topped the standings with a 60.632 — but she has no shot at the all-around gold because of the national limits…. There are just too many great American gymnasts."
It's a good problem, as problems go, and one that the U.S. men's swimming team expected to have. Instead, things have been more complicated. First, Michael Phelps finished fourth in the 400-meter individual medley Saturday behind Lochte, his teammate, gold medalist and current alpha water-dog. That result brought forth several early obituaries for the 2008 Olympics hero. Then, in Sunday's 4×100 freestyle relay, Phelps swam a brilliant leg, while Lochte was outpaced by Yannick Agnel down the stretch. The U.S. settled for a silver, and Lochte went from anointed new star to fresh, feckless goat over the course of 30 decisive meters.
That's the Olympics, too: rapid reversals of fortune, new heroes arriving every hour on the hour. It's no wonder NBC can't keep up. How could they? Which, finally, is part of what makes it all so overwhelming, and so great.

When their fellow Olympians mobbed Kobe Bryant, Kevin Durant, LeBron James and the other NBA superstars during their visit to the Olympic Village, it proved a point that was already fairly obvious: There are Olympians, and then there is Team USA. But while the U.S. men's basketball players are bigger, better-known and better-paid than other Olympians, they face the same task as all those anonymous archers and steeplechasers and rowers: do what they do best better than the best in the world. On Sunday, after a slow start, Team USA did just that, dispatching a talent-rich French team in a 98-71 romp.
The argument could be made that watching a series of museum-quality routs isn't all that fun. But that sort of thing is, more or less, what was expected of Team USA. While this latest Dream Team has been a good deal more likable than advertised, down even to designated lightning rod LeBron James, it is also expected to dominate. Expectations have been high for every U.S. team since the inaugural Dream Team two decades ago, but only one has ever failed to measure up. That would be the 2004 Not-Quite-Dream Team, which won bronze in Athens. Their unhappy story gets an interesting and still wince-inducing oral history treatment from Nate Penn at GQ.

Baseball's trade deadline arrives Tuesday, but one of the priciest dominoes in the trade market toppled over the weekend when the Los Angeles Angels swung a trade for 2009 American League Cy Young Award winner Zack Greinke, dealing three solid prospects in the process. It was an uncharacteristic bit of deadline daring for a team generally given to a more conservative in-season approach, especially given Greinke's status as a rising and likely very expensive free agent. "Future seasons aren't the Angels' primary concern right now," Sports Illustrated's Joe Lemire writes. "Winning the West in 2012 is. And the stakes continue to rise."
Greinke was hardly the last big-ticket trade target on the market, and the Angels are certainly not the only playoff contender looking to stock up for the stretch run. Josh Johnson, erstwhile ace of the abruptly retooling Marlins, may be the most intriguing pitcher in trade talks, although his rocky start Saturday in front of scouts from a dozen teams may not have helped his stock. As Jeff Sullivan writes at SB Nation, Johnson is a uniquely complicated and occasionally confounding ace. But with the trade season approaching its zenith and an uncommon number of teams in the hunt in both leagues, Johnson will keep looking better and better. Baseball's annual lesson in supply and demand is officially in session.

The Daily Start-Up: Vinod Khosla's Bid For $1 Billion
This morning's Web roundup:
While many venture capital firms have had trouble raising new capital this year, Vinod Khosla may be on the verge of defying the odds. Khosla started up his own venture firm in 2004 to invest his personal wealth in information technology and cleantech companies while he was still employed by Kleiner Perkins Caufield & Byers, where he became a rainmaker and one of the most famous VCs in the Silicon Valley. VentureWire reported in February that his firm, Khosla Ventures, was looking to outside investors for the first time as he ambitiously sought at least $750 million for two new funds. That target was dialed up to $1 billion when the California Public Employees' Retirement System said it was committing $200 million to the fund. According to Forbes, Khosla is about to announce the two new funds: a $250 million vehicle for seed-stage investments and $750 million monster for later-stage deals…
Louisville, Ky.-based venture capital firm Chrysalis Ventures is positioning itself to benefit strongly from the coming health care reform, writes the Bits blog. Unlike many health care investors that put money into drug discovery or medical devices, Chrysalis is investing in start-ups that improve the productivity and lower the costs of health care services….
Would the venture capital model work better if early-stage investors bought into companies early and sold out to secondary funds? Auren Hoffmen, CEO of research firm Rapleaf, believes so, writing in BusinessWeek that these secondary investors would make better board members for later-stage companies. Jason Mendelson, a partner at early-stage venture firm Foundry Group, explains on his blog why he thinks this notion doesn't make sense….
If you've been laid off in Silicon Valley, don't fret – it just might be a good thing, writes Paul Boutin in Wired. "[T]o start the next wave of opportunities, we need to revive the kind of wanton cross-pollination that got us this far," Boutin writes. "That's why being pushed out the door could be just what you—and the Valley—need." Boutin says he's been fired five times since moving to Northern California in 1990 and has bounced back every time.

Bernard Lawrence "Bernie" Madoff—an American stockbroker, investment advisor, and financier—was responsible for pulling off the largest case of financial fraud in U.S. history. Plain and simple, his case is something you have to comprehend. It resides in the pantheon of Ponzi schemes, and its treatment of fraud is like financial porn for the 63.
Madoff's core skill in fraud resided in faking financial statements. He claimed that he had huge compound investment returns when in fact he lost ...

Entrepreneurial Rabbi is a Hit on ABC's Shark Tank, Scores Deal With Daymond John (VIDEO)
Friday The Algemeiner wrote about Moshe Weiss, a Chabad rabbi and entrepreneur from St. Paul, MN, who was set to appear on "Shark Tank," an ABC reality TV show, that night.
On the show participants pitch their business ideas and investment opportunities to a team of entrepreneurs and business executives. Weiss pitched his "SoundBender" product, a device designed to amplify an iPad's speaker without the use of batteries.
The product was a hit and Daymond John, a mega-mogul behind the FUBU clothing line, tossed in his support giving the rabbi the $54,000 he was asking for a 40% stake in the company.

Robert Lindstrom, the founder of Designchapel and co-founder of North Kingdom.
Where are you based?
Warsaw, Poland.
What books are you reading now?
Eduardo Porter's The Price of Everything and Mario Puzo's Omerta.

KWCH viewers asked many great questions on our Facebook page about the flu. Here are the answers to a few of them, according to the infection prevention team at Wesley Medical Center.
Why are some people more or less susceptible to getting the flu?
- Getting the flu depends on being exposed, the virulence (strength) of the flu virus, the amount of virus, the immune system of the person exposed, medications the person takes may play a part as well as illnesses that they have. Different types of flu virus also seem to target different populations differently.
How long will the flu shot last before you should get another one?
- It will last the entire season -6-8 months
Do we know if the people who have died got their flu shot?
- It can be fatal in persons with chronic conditions that weaken the immune system. In your healthy individuals there is some thought that the person's immune system over reacts to the virus causing organs to fail.
How soon are you protected after getting vaccinated?
- About 2 weeks.
What are the best ways to protect children who were not able to get the flu shot?
- "cocoon" them by having everyone around them get a flu shot.
How long does the upper respiratory hang on to your lungs?
- It can last a few days to several weeks often depending on the pre flu lung condition, but also depending on how intense the person's immune response was.
Will people who had H1N1 when it first went around have some resistance to it this year?
- They should, but the flu virus mutates quickly and those changes can fool our immune system
About how long does the flu last?
- The acute symptoms (fever, body aches) usually last 3-10 days. If a person picks up a secondary infection like bronchitis or pneumonia it can last several weeks.
What is your best advice for protecting infants from the flu?
- Everyone around them needs to have a flu shot. Everyone should use soap and water or alcohol hand gel prior to touching the infant. No one who is ill should be around the infant.

|Here are some details about my project:
|Traditional, Casual, Cute
What was your source for this knitting project?
Online Photo or Website
Name of website or photo Sprout Baby Sweater
What materials did you use? Sprout by Classic Elite (100% organic cotton; 100 gram hank = approx 109 yards) ?? 2 (3, 3) hanks 4304 Chicory Needles: ?? One 24?? circular size US 10 (6 mm) ?? One set double pointed needles (dpns) size US 10 (6 mm) ?? Stitch markers ?? Stitch holders or waste yarn ?? One 1?? button
What are you most proud of? Using a bulkier yarn in a child's garment without sacrificing fit or scale.
What advice would you give someone starting this project? Rather than stopping the V-neck when the stitch count for the front matched the stitch count for the back, I continued the neckline opening into a little keyhole slit and closed it with a pearl button. The deeper V will make sure that the neck opening is large enough to accommodate a toddler??s proportions. I also increased at the waist, rather than decreasing as I would in an adult design, to make room for a toddler??s belly and diapered bum.

Staind, today, is a well known band in America which was formed by Aaron Lewis and other members of the band in 1995 as rock band. The other members of the band include Mike Mushok, Jon Wysocki and Johnny April. They are most famous for using baritone guitar and 20 other guitar tunings during their songs. Till now, the band has been sold more than 15 million records. Some of the hit albums of the band include Tormented, Break the Cycle, Chapter, Dysfunction, 14 Shades of Grey, I Tunes Original and The Illusion of Progress.
All of the members of the band are tattoo fanatics as they have engraved a number of tattoos on their bodies and the number is increasing day by day. Aaron Lewis, who is also said to be one of the main members of the band, has made tattoos on his arms, hands and neck. His tattoos include small symbols, tribal designs, stars and American flag. He has made combined skull on his hands and is showing a text tattoo on his front neck.
Mike Mushok is another person who has shown interest in tattoo art but he is not as much interested in this art as Lewis. Mushok has made just one tattoo on his body which is located on his right arm. Johnny April has made a couple of tattoos on his right bicep. He is showing a skull tattoo and a flame tattoo on his arms. The fans of the band eagerly engrave band's logo on their bodies.

Brigitte Gabriel, a survivor of Islamic Bludgeoning of non-Muslims, exposes:
Western leaders have a different idea regarding Islam. Islam to them is just another religion, one me must accept according to their multicultural tolerance. They come to our non-Muslim countries where they enjoy not just freedom, but overwhelming prosperity, and they are commanding non-Muslims to accept what they know has been oppressing them for so long.
Sharia law is an oppressive dictatorship as performed centuries ago by barbaric Muslims of the Al Qu'ran. These are not just bad laws created by a bunch of random thugs, they are based in the text of the Qu'ran. The Qu'ran explicitly endorses stoning to death, beheading, oppressing, torturing, & killing of non-Muslims:
2:191- And slay them wherever ye catch them
8:12- I will instill terror into the hearts of the unbelievers: smite ye above their necks and smite all their finger-tips off them
3:151- We will cast terror into the hearts of those who disbelieve, because they set up with Allah that for which He has sent down no authority, and their abode is the fire, and evil is the abode of the unjust.
8:60- And prepare against them what force you can and horses tied at the frontier, to terrorize thereby the enemy of Allah...
As well as deeming females:
QURAN 4:34 - "Men have authority over women because God has made the one superior to the other, and because they spend their wealth to maintain them. Good women are obedient. They guard their unseen parts because God has guarded them. As for those from whom you fear disobedience, admonish them and send them to beds apart and beat them. Then if they obey you, take no further action against them. Surely God is high, supreme."
(The Koran (Quran) allows men to beat their wifes, and here are the rules.)
SAHIH MUSLIM Book 004, #2127. In this Hadith Muhammad chest-slapped Aisha and "caused her pain": "...Was it the darkness (of your shadow) that I saw in front of me? I said: Yes. He struck me on the chest which caused me pain, and then said: Did you think that Allah and His Apostle would deal unjustly with you?"
"Women are feeble and are unable to devise a plan." Sura 4:98 "Men are the protectors and maintainers of women, because Allah has made one of them to excel the other." al-Nisaa 4:34 Right there in your Quran it says that women are stupid.
Wife beating and rape are violations of US law. Both are ALLOWED by Islam.(Quran 4:24 and Quran 23:1-7). Evil exists, but rarely does a religion approve. Muhammad himself beat his wife Aisha (whom he raped as well when she was a little girl).
Men beat women the world over,but in the West these women are protected by law with access to safe houses, equality of testimony with men and support of family and friends to expose beatings to publicly shame the man rather than cover up the crime to protect his non-existent 'honour'. Muslim countries rarely afford women the same protections because they would rather protect the Muslim community's reputation than publicly shame the bad behaviour of any Muslim man.
Sahih al-Bukhari 3:48:826 "The Prophet said, 'Isn't the witness of a woman equal to half of that of a man?' The women said, 'Yes.' He said, 'This is because of the deficiency of a woman's mind'."
Qur'an 2:282 "And call to witness, from among your men, two witnesses. And if two men be not found then a man and two women"
This is not a product of 'extremists.' This is a product of people who take the Koran literally. And that is the way it is meant to be taken. The only way for peace to exist in this world is for Islam to be eliminated.
The problem is not organized religion it itself either. The problem is because of what Islam preaches, including telling Muslims to go kill non-Muslims.
Some people say they don't mind people being Islamic, so as long as they don't force it on others. Indeed, that would be a nice position to accept. Islam itself will always seek to force itself on others, if not chained by something else. It is a religion that actively tells its members to kill Christians Jews, Hindus, Buddhist, etc.
Islam, by itself, will never, ever create peace. It will always seek to force itself on society, government, and all innocent people.

I'm surveying the dirty dishes on the kitchen counter and the dust on our bookshelves – that means cleaning is on my mind. Where we live, everything is expensive, including cleaners. To save money, and heck – why not the environment while I'm at it, I'm a big fan of homemade cleaners. I love the fact that I can clean right next to my kiddos and not worry about fumes getting in their systems or chemicals on their skin, especially my daughter's, who loves to clean with me.
Here are the latest recipes I've discovered:
all-purpose cleaner
- 1 tsp. liquid soap
- 1 qt warm water
- few tablespoons of lemon juice or vinegar
glass cleaner (and I use newspaper to wipe off – it eliminates streaks)
- 2 cups water
- 1/2 cup white or cider vinegar
- 1/4 cup rubbing alcohol
- 1 to 2 drops of essential oil (optional)
laundry detergent – several recipes, along with FAQs
even homemade febreeze!
I wrote this post awhile back with some recipes, but I've since decided I like the above recipes better.
There are scads of recipes to be discovered on the internet – if you find one that works for you, please pass it along! Be sure to check out more frugal tips on saving money here.
Happy cleaning.
