As a gift to my sister, June, our uncle in Iowa sent two young Duroc pigs, bred sows. They started us in the hog business on the farm near Elmwood, Oklahoma, which Papa had bought as a relinquishment in 1907.
Papa raised lots of maize and kaffir corn as grain for the hogs, and they bought many things needed for the farm.
I remember the day June sold a pig to a neighbor lady for five dollars. When Papa came home, he was horrified that she had charged such a price, and he sent her to return three dollars to the buyer.

Back in 1955 a call went out from the editors of the then Capper's Weekly asking for readers to send in articles on true pioneers. Hundreds of letters came pouring in from early settlers and their children, many now in their 80s and 90s, and from grandchildren of settlers, all with tales to tell. So many articles were received that a decision was made to create a book, and in 1956, the first My Folks title – My Folks Came in a Covered Wagon – hit the shelves. Nine other books have since been published in the My Folks series, all filled to the brim with true tales from Capper's readers, and we are proud to make those stories available to our growing online community.

In his last, seated, talked, Dr. Corrigan said he did not know which Z160 trial would be [announced] first. Of course, what he is telling us is that he will decide if its bad news first, then good news. Good new and then more good news. Or all bad news.
He could also co-announce success and failure?
At least there are two trials running.
Remember just 1 point on the pain scale is all we need beyond placebo.

Even if i would not know who u r... This post just proves what a complete waste of dna u r!
Sci what do you think about:
2) when (if) ZLCS will rebound anticipating news?
3) pps before news?
4) pps if only 1 trial succeed?
5) pps if both trials are positive?

Sorry, this is a follow up to an earlier related post, but I want to exclude a category from the loop. I've seen related posts and know what I have to do (I just don't know the exact syntax, but basically I know I need to add this:
<?php query_posts(cat='-4'); ?>
to this:
$page = (get_query_var('paged')) ? get_query_var('paged') : 1;
<?php while ( have_posts() ) : the_post(); ?>
<?php get_template_part('content','archive'); ?>
<?php endwhile; ?>
...except I don't know exactly, precisely, how to phrase the code. If you could show me exactly how to include it that would be great, but (even better) recommend a GREAT SOURCE for learning to write WP's propietary .php code.
Thank you,

Greens (Fried) Rice
Total Time
Prep 20 mins
Cook 8 mins
I created this recipe to get more spinach in my diet. It tastes great and you forget you're eating healthy. Prep time includes cooking the rice and chopping the veggies.
Ingredients Nutrition
- 3 cups cooked rice (I use long grain boiled in chicken stock)
- 2 cups fresh spinach, chopped fine
- 1⁄2 cup frozen peas
- 1⁄4 cup chopped green onion
- 1⁄4 cup carrot (chopped fine)
- 2 garlic cloves, minced
- 1⁄8 cup soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon sesame oil
- salt and pepper
- In a medium-hot wok, add oil, garlic and carrots.
- Saute for 1-2 minutes or until carrots are semi-soft.
- Add soy sauce and rice to wok.
- As you fry the rice, add first the peas, then spinach and then the green onion at 1-2 minute intervals.
- Serve Immediately.
Most Helpful
Good idea putting spinach in fried rice, but the flavor was a bit bland. That's easily fixable though.
Yum! Brought it to a potluck and everyone loved it! I didn't have a lot of rice, so I only used 2 cups with the same amount of veggies, and also added a pinch of ginger powder. EXCELLENT way to use spinach--I never would have thought of this!
I agree, a great way to eat your spinach. I found the dish lacking a bit of flavor though. I stirred in some oyster sauce and that seemed to do the trick.

Orca Network
Rating: 5 stars 13 13 reviews
2403 N Bluff Rd Greenbank WA 98253 USA
Orca Network is dedicated to raising awareness of the whales of the Pacific Northwest, and the importance of providing them healthy and safe habitats.
Over the past 10 years, Orca Network's Whale Sighting Network has grown from several hundred participants to 6,500 subscribers to our whale reports, and our Facebook page has grown to nearly 11,000 likes, with most of those active users. In 2001, we collected and shared 710 whale sightings reports; in 2010 it had grown to 2621 reports. These reports enable people to learn about the whales of the Pacific NW, and enable them to get to the shorelines to watch as they pass by. And most importantly, the sightings data is shared with researchers up and down the Pacific Coast, adding important data to studies being done to protect the Endangered Southern Resident orcas, humpbacks, Gray whales and other cetaceans. Orca Network has also been actively engaged in efforts to keep orcas out of captivity, with our focus on Lolita, or Tokitae, the L pod/Southern Resident orca captured off Whidbey Island in 1970, living in the smallest tank in the country at the Miami Seaquarium ever since. Orca Network also oversees the Central Puget Sound Marine Mammal Stranding Network, responding to hundreds of calls about stranded or dead marine mammals, conducting necropsies and testing to determine cause of death, which helps researchers understand the health of our marine mammals and ocean ecosystems. We also conduct countless hours of education at the Coupeville Wharf, events, and on the beach, especially during seal pup season.
Projects include our popular Whale Sighting Network, educational programs and materials, the Free Lolita project and the Central Puget Sound Marine Mammal Stranding Network.

Listening to John Prescott this morning speak in his unique brand of Foglish (the meaning is somewhere there but you have to feel your way to it) I could only thank the Deity that - as far as I can establish - Sir Fred the Shred Goodwin, he of the £700,000 a year pension, is not one of the tribe. I can't say Sir Victor Blank, over at Lloyds TSB, is making much of a fist of things, but at least he's not taking £700,000 a year off the taxpayer and thinking that this is not a problem. Funny thing, though, that Lord Myners, who apparently signed off on this extraordinary deal in the mistaken assumption that Sir Fred was the wrong side of 60 rather than a fighting-cock 50, is a former chairman of Marks & Spencer. Speaks volumes, to me at least, as to why the Myners M&S was not all it might have been.

Recipe: Vegetable Biryani Rice
Vegetable Biryani Rice
2 cups basmati rice (white or brown)
3 cardamom pods, lightly crushed
1 bay leaf (preferably Indian)
1 cinnamon stick
1 teaspoon kosher salt
6 cups chopped mixed vegetables (such as broccoli, cauliflower, carrots, peas, green beans; can use raw or frozen)
3 tablespoons ghee or vegetable oil
1 large onion, thinly sliced
4 cloves garlic, minced
2-inch piece ginger, minced
3 cardamom pods
3 cloves
1 teaspoon ground coriander
1 teaspoon ground cumin
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon ground cayenne pepper
1/8 teaspoon coarsely ground black pepper
1/4 cup water
1 1/2 teaspoons kosher salt
1 large pinch saffron dissolved in 1/4 cup warm water
1 teaspoon ghee or vegetable oil
1/4 cup golden raisins
1/4 cup cashews
1/4 cup chopped cilantro
Rinse the rice 3-4 times until the water runs clear. Soak the rice in water for at least 30 minutes and drain.
Bring a medium pot of water to a boil. Add the rice, spices, and salt. Boil until the rice is just tender and chewy (neither soft nor crunchy), about 10 minutes. Drain well. Return to the pot and cover to keep warm.
Briefly steam the vegetables until just tender but still crisp.
Preheat oven to 350°F.
In a large skillet or saucepan, heat the ghee or vegetable oil over medium-high heat. Cook the onion, stirring, until translucent. Add the garlic and ginger, and cook, stirring, for a minute. Add the spices and cook, stirring, for another minute. Add the water, vegetables, and salt, reduce heat to medium, and cook, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables are warmed through.
Spread half of the rice in a 9x12-inch baking dish. Spread the vegetables evenly on top and then the remaining rice. Drizzle the saffron-water mixture on top. Cover the dish with a lid or aluminum foil and bake for 15 minutes.
While the dish is in the oven, heat the ghee or vegetable oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add the raisins and cashews and cook, stirring, until the raisins are plump and the cashews are toasted.
To serve, garnish the biryani with raisins, cashews, and cilantro. Serve warm as a main or side dish. Delicious with yogurt or raita.

A welcome home ceremony for approximately 100 Fort Carson Soldiers was held Thursday night at the Special Events Center on post.
Soldiers of the 62nd Engineer Company (Sapper) deployed to Iraq in support of Operation New Dawn. They are the last Fort Carson Soldiers to depart the Iraqi theater of operation.
"It feels great, it's one of the best presents the Army could have given me," said Raymond Faivre.
"At one point, we didn't know if we were gonna be ale to make it back for Christmas, but once we found out, it's one of the awesome gifts... not only for me to be able to be with my family, but for my family to be here, with me," Hector Garcia.
The Sappers provided route clearance and route sanitation on all major roads in the Dhi Qar and Diwaniya provinces, totaling an area in excess of 13,000 miles.
During its final weeks in Iraq, the company received the force protection mission and assumed the responsibility of protecting 27 towers while simultaneously conducting roving patrols. Overall, the 62nd Engineers contributed over 12,000 man hours in support of Combat Outpost Adder force protection.

- Quiet, visually stunning grounds
- One of Phoenix's best spas (no extra access fee)
- Two top-notch golf courses
- Excellent cuisine; on-site organic garden
- Isolated feeling, but close (by Arizona driving standards) to cute shops and restaurants
- 50-minute drive from Phoenix International Airport (longer with traffic)
- Daily resort fee, though not uncommon
- Gym sometimes closes early
Bottom Line
Arguably the most scenic resort in the Southwest, the Boulders is built to impress -- exceptional gym and spa; renowned golf courses; organic cuisine grown on the grounds; and casitas with wood-beamed ceilings. It's one of the best resorts in Phoenix.

Oyster Hotel Review
One of the best resorts in Phoenix
Boulders is a resort, in every sense. While many people find that the main pool is a tad small considering the resort's size, its spa remains one of the most impressive in the country, and its two golf courses, gym, tennis facilities, and numerous restaurants all vie for the title of best in Phoenix. But the grounds, dotted with cacti, an organic citrus orchard, and the region's famous boulders (some bigger than houses), might just be the resort's most impressive highlight. At the very least, the beauty and serenity found on this enormous property is a distinct advantage over smaller hotels like the Sanctuary at Camelback Mountain or the Four Seasons, and a considerable advantage over more central roadside hotels like FireSky. The main difference: The resort feels largely detached from Scottsdale and Phoenix's suburban sprawl. Were it not for the two golf courses -- and the staff-driven golf carts ferrying guests around the resort (cars aren't allowed past the entrance) -- you might feel entirely alone in the desert.
Kind, attentive service, but not all the high-end niceties one might expect from a resort in this price range
- Poolside food and drinks service
- In-room dining available from 6:30 a.m. to 10 p.m.
- Daily newspaper delivery
- Valet parking, included in the $30-per-day resort fee
- Ample staffers offer guests lifts around the property in golf carts (no cars allowed past the entrance).
- No evening turndown service
- The $30 resort fee includes valet service and all tipping (except at the restaurants).
Just outside a quaint town, a little less than an hour from the airport
Detached from the Scottsdale suburbs, a little less than an hour from the airport, Boulders is actually in a quaint, somewhat kitschy suburban town called Carefree (established as a planned community in 1955). If you climb to the one of the highest hilltops on the property you can catch a glimpse of the Phoenix sprawl, but the property otherwise feels quiet and insulated (unlike at the FireSky hotel). A string of artsy shops and restaurants in what one might call "downtown" Carefree is located a couple miles to the north of the resort (about a five-minute drive).
- About a 50-minute drive from Phoenix International Airport
- Five-minute drive from El Pedregal Festival Marketplace, an upscale shopping village that hosts concerts and includes a number of outdoor cafes and restaurants, notably The Spotted Donkey Cantina (dinner)
View the Full Carefree Area Guide
Nearby Hotels
Big rooms with wood-beamed ceilings
As a more upscale off-shoot of the Hilton brand, the guest rooms (called Casitas) are clean, comfortable, and certainly maintain the high-end essentials (from good beds to bathrobes). When we visited, we encountered some scuffs, musty smells, outdated decor, a less-than-thrilling bathroom, and a bulky tube TV set, but the hotel refreshed a number of rooms since our visit with flat-screen TVs, upgraded bathrooms, and other updates.
- All of the guest rooms are divided between several free-standing structures (a bit like houses).
- While most rooms overlook the golf course -- it covers a huge percentage of the resort's land -- some of the standard rooms have noisier, less desirable views (the spa's parking lot, for example).
- The standard rooms, called Casitas, are all on the ground floor and start at a large 550 square feet (one king or two double-size beds). Sonoran Casitas are basically the same, but they're on the second floor (or are free-standing units) and generally have better views. All Casitas have working gas fireplaces and updated features such as 42-inch flat-screen TVs. The Boulders Suite (1,100 square feet) is essentially a standard room attached to a large parlor with a table for six, a wetbar, and a second, smaller bathroom with a shower stall.
- In addition to the older Luxury Pueblo Villas (one-, two-, and three-bedroom villas with full kitchens, laundry, and a garage), the resort added a number of Haciendas (privately-owned villas) that also include stone driveways, built-in rear patios with a fireplace and a separate barbeque, a large whirlpool tub in the master bathroom, granite kitchen countertops and Viking Wolf appliances, and large flat-screen TVs. The five-bedroom Villa Retreat is the best of them: It also includes an infinity pool, a gym, an elevator, and a private Japanese Jacuzzi tub.
All rooms include:
- High-speed internet (included in the $30 daily resort fee)
- 42-inch flat-screen TV with premium cable (HBO); DVDs available by request
- Comfortable beds: 250-thread-count Egyptian cotton sheets; down comforter with a duvet; non-allergenic feather pillows
- Walk-in closet
- iPod docking alarm clocks; CD players available by request
- Stocked minibar; free coffee and tea
- Private patio
- Ceiling fan
- Air conditioning
- Bathrobes and two pairs of slippers
- Large bathroom with a walk-in shower and a separate soaking tub
- Clear by LXR skin care and bath products
- All rooms are non-smoking
- Wood-buring fireplaces (but use may be restricted during air quality restrictions, which include most of the summer months)
Rooms and Rates
The main pool is a bit small and often crowded, but the tennis facilities are excellent
- Four pools: main pool (a bit small, considering the size of the resort); pool (quieter pool at the spa); Club Pool (small pool at the Club House for cooling off after a day in the sun or a workout on the tennis courts); Villa Pool (more secluded, closer to the private villas)
- Top-notch tennis facilities (five hard courts, three clay): Rated one of the "Top 50 Tennis Resorts in America" by Tennis magazine, the resort also provides 24-hour stringing and re-gripping services, twice monthly round-robin tournaments, racquet rental, and private lessons and clinics.
- Daily fitness excursions, such as mountain biking ($110), rock climbing clinics ($130), and desert hiking ($85)
- Various outdoor tours, such as photo tours of the Sonoran Desert ($85 per person), cattle drives, stargazing with a professional astronomer, and horseback riding through the Tonto National Forest
- Large, bright fitness center with free weights, up-to-date cardio machines, whirlpools, and saunas; hours vary seasonally.
One of the best spas in the Southwest
The Spa at the Boulders compares to only a handful of other spa brands throughout the country, such as Canyon Ranch (found more recently at the Canyon Ranch Miami Beach and the The Venetian hotel in Las Vegas). The massive, 33,000-square-foot facility at the Boulders is one of the best in the Phoenix/Scottsdale area -- no small feat in one of the most spa-heavy towns in America. Its treatments and products derive, in part, from the desert environment, though its mammoth menu spans the globe: Swedish, shiatsu, Thai, and "Golfer's Massage," among others. But as the spa begins to show its age (like most of the resort), the spa at the smaller and more serene Sanctuary on Camelback Mountain proves a worthy adversary (all it really lacks is the labyrinth).
- Signature "labyrinth," a stone-lined walking path inspired by ancient Hopi medicine wheels
- Outdoor pool and whirlpool set against ancient boulders -- often a quieter, less crowded alternative to the main pool
- The movement studio offers Pilates, yoga, and tai chi classes for all skill levels (excellent instructors); water aerobics also available throughout the week
- The Watsu, a shallow warm-water pool designed for "back-to-the-womb" massages
- A cafe (organic light fare) and a circular tea room overlooking the desert
- Beauty Salon; full menu of services and pre-wedding packages
- Beautiful locker rooms, steam rooms, saunas, and the O'furo, a traditional Japanese bath
- Various classes and workshops available, such as digestive and nutritional counseling, weight and stress management programs, detoxification, and even memory enhancement
Two of the best courses in Phoenix
Designed by Jay Morrish in 1984, the 36 holes at the Boulders have received numerous accolades from Travel+Leisure, Conde Nast Traveler, Golf Digest, and Golf magazine, among others.
- Two challenging 18-hole courses: North Course (6,811 yards, par 72, slope 137); South Course (6,726 yards, par 72, slope 140)
- One-on-one or group instruction from The Boulders Golf Academy ($50 to $70 per half-hour); lessons can include video analysis, on-course play, corporate clinics, and work with Don Crawley of Golf Simplified fame (ranked one of the "Top 100 Teachers in America" by Golf magazine)
- Driving range, practice greens, and chipping bunkers
- Rental clubs from Nike
- Dress code: soft spikes; collared shirt; no denim
- Greens fees for resort guests (18 holes) range from about $70 (weekday in the summer) to about $220 (weekend in the winter). Note that you can use your HHonors points for a round (25,000 to 35,000 points).
- Tip: Book a round early (they can fill up fast); resort guests can schedule tee times up to 90 days in advance.
Organic, local, and well-prepared
Dedicated to providing organic, local, and seasonal ingredients -- part of the resort's holistic health focus -- the Boulders' on-site garden supplies its restaurants with organic lettuce, carrots, celery, heirloom tomatoes, herbs, edible flowers, and a variety of citrus.
- Palo Verde: Broad range of organic breakfast options, along with southwestern-inspired lunches
- The Grill Kitchen & Bar, a small steak and seafood restaurant, offers casual outdoor dining for about $15 to $35.
- Bakery Café offers snacks, salads, sandwiches, and fresh-baked breads and pastries for breakfast and lunch.
- Discovery Lounge, an on-site cocktail bar, features an in-hour pianist on Friday and Saturday evenings.
- The Pool Pavilion provides signature drinks and snacks, poolside.
- In-room dining available from 6:30 a.m. to 10 p.m.

The System
The funny thing is how we're all in a carefully organized system. We get up each day, we go to work/school every day, we come home, we go to sleep, and it repeats.
I don't know if any of you have thought about the system, it's not one system the entire world has been corrupted into a system. Least for human beings. We're told what to think, what to believe in, what we should learn, what is healthy and what is not, that skinny/anorexic is beautiful. Has it ever occurred to you that back before schools were invented, back before money was the reason people could survive, back before we were told what to do, what to eat, how to live that people used to think on their own. People used to learn what they needed to learn as they went through life, they learned how to survive, they learned how to create, they learned how to grow and love.

Christmas recipe for love—combine a matchmaking Santa, lots of mistletoe, one iron-clad rule, fated hearts; mix and stir. The Riley siblings don't stand a chance.
Major Mark Riley plays Court Jester to Janelle Walsh's Snow Queen at the Christmas Parade and is instantly captivated by the cute redhead whose grandpa just happens to be Santa. When Mark learns she's the tenant he evicted from his newly purchased property, it's going to take a little bit of Santa's mistletoe magic to save their romance.
(Previously published 2009 Mistletoe Rules Anthology, a 2010 Write Touch Readers' Award Winner)
She gave him a quick half-smile and sidestepped toward the wagon. "It was nice to meet you, Major. Thanks for doing such a great job as the jester."
"You're welcome, and you can call me Mark, you know."
"Major's safer."
The briefest flash of consternation in her expression told him she hadn't meant to say that out loud. When her foot landed on the step so she could pull herself up into the driver's seat, Mark caught her arm and turned her around. She grabbed hold of his shoulder to keep her balance on the narrow step.
"If I don't do this, it's going to drive me crazy until I see you again," he told her in a low voice.
Her throat muscles worked in a hard swallow. "Do what?" A downward flick of her gaze said she knew the answer to her own question.
He let his mouth relax in a slow, confidant smile. One step closer brought him close enough to brace a hand against the wagon on either side of her. "I gotta tell you, pretty as you were as the Snow Queen, elf suits you better—although I do miss those cute, pointy little ears."
She rolled her eyes. "Oh, please."
He took a moment to let his gaze roam over her face. Snow drifted down silently and their breath mingled in the frigid air. Mark drew out the anticipation of what was to come, enjoying the awareness that warmed the space between them.
"You look like Christmas," he murmured.
One corner of her mouth twitched. "I'm guessing it's the costume."
He shook his head and reached up to twirl a red curl around his finger, watching the silky length wind against his skin before holding her gaze with his. "Red and green, and all wrapped up like a delicious, cinnamon scented present."
She laughed softly.
Mark closed the remaining few inches, pressing the length of his body to hers. "In fact, I think I need to go find Santa and tell him I've been a real good boy this year."
He spoke the last words a hairsbreadth away from her lips.
To everything there is a season...

Regional News Briefs
Removal of river's concrete lining sought
The Milwaukee Metropolitan Sewerage District would spend $3.98 million to remove 1,100 feet of concrete from the bed of the Menomonee River north of Wisconsin Ave. and eliminate a barrier to fish passage between Lake Michigan and upstream stretches of the river under a proposed contract to be awarded this month.
The district's commission will be asked to award the contract on May 20 to C.W. Purpero Inc. of Oak Creek, the lowest bidder. The commission's Operations Committee recommended approving the contract at its regular meeting Monday.
A 58-foot-wide concrete channel from the Wisconsin Ave. bridge upstream to the Canadian Pacific Railway bridge was constructed in 1965 as part of a flood-control effort designed to funnel storm-swollen river flows quickly downstream.
The channel in this section of the river created a steep chute with fast-flowing water even in dry weather that is impassable for most fish. Fish stack up in the river below Wisconsin Ave. as they struggle against the extreme current.
The concrete riverbed upstream of Wisconsin Ave. is deteriorated and should be removed, officials said.
As part of the contract, workers will restore a more natural, meandering stream bed with rock riffles and pools for fish to rest.
The project will open 17 miles of the main river - through Wauwatosa to Lepper Dam at Mill Pond Park in Menomonee Falls - to fish migration.
Work could begin by early August if the contract is awarded later this month, said Tom Chapman, MMSD watercourse section manager.
Suspect's mental evaluation delayed
A third mental evaluation was delayed Monday in the case of a 24-year-old Milwaukee man accused of fatally striking his mother's boyfriend with a hammer and stabbing him 13 times.
Olajuawon Bell is charged with first-degree intentional homicide in the Nov. 15 death of John Evans. According to a criminal complaint, Bell's mother awoke to hear Evans yelling "stop." When she got up, she saw her son standing in the living room with a hammer in his hand and asked him what happened.
"Mama, I'll take care of this," he said. "John tried to kill me." She then noticed her boyfriend, who had been living with her for about seven months, lying in front of the TV in a large pool of blood.
Court records show that on Nov. 28, defense attorneys told the court the defendant might not be competent to stand trial. The court found probable cause and ordered Bell examined by the Wisconsin Forensic Unit.
On Dec. 13, a physician's report was filed and the court found Bell competent to proceed with the case. A week later, Bell pleaded not guilty. Then on Jan. 25, Bell changed his plea to not guilty by reason of mental disease or defect and the court ordered another doctor's report, which was returned March 19. On that day, prosecutors requested an additional evaluation, which was expected to be filed Monday.
Instead, the report was not ready and the case was adjourned until next Monday.
Killed law enforcement officers to be honored
Five Wisconsin officers killed in the line of duty, including Wauwatosa officer Jennifer Sebena, will be honored during the 23rd annual Wisconsin Law Enforcement Memorial Ceremony set for noon Friday at the Capitol grounds in Madison.
The annual ceremony is held with National Police Week activities, which include National Peace Officers Memorial Day on May 15.
Sebena was shot to death Dec. 24 while on patrol outside a Wauwatosa fire station. Her husband is accused of the murder. Sebena also will be included on a national memorial wall for law enforcement in Washington, during a May 13 ceremony.
Pregnant woman hit by car; unborn baby dies
A 23-year-old woman who was nine months pregnant lost her fetus about 2:30 p.m. Monday when she was struck by a hit-and-run driver in the 200 block of W. Locust St., police said. The driver was involved in a collision and veered off the roadway before striking the woman, who was hospitalized in serious condition, police said. The driver fled on foot but later contacted police and was in custody.
S.S. Badger begins its sailing season
The S.S. Badger car ferry began its sailing season Monday after reaching a deal with regulators on releasing coal ash into Lake Michigan.
About 100 passengers made the journey, along with truckers hauling wind turbine parts.
The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency in March agreed to let the Badger continue dumping its waste ash into the lake for two more years while developing a system to store it onboard and disposing of it on land. The courts have yet to decide whether to accept the agreement.
10% of kindergartners not ready to read
Ten percent of Wisconsin kindergarten students aren't ready for classroom reading lessons.
That's according to newly released statewide test results. The Phonological Awareness Literacy Screening, or PALS test, was given to students for the first time last fall.
The Wisconsin State Journal obtained the results under the state's Open Records Law and reported them Monday.
Department of Public Instruction spokesman Patrick Gasper said the results weren't published because the test is meant to help classroom teachers and not to compare students.
State wolf population might have dipped
New estimates show the state's wolf population has stopped growing and may have slightly declined after last fall's inaugural hunt.
Department of Natural Resources estimates released Monday put the wolf population at between 809 and 834 animals, still far above the agency's goal of 350. The 2012 count estimated 815 to 880 wolves roamed the state.
Hunters killed 117 wolves during Wisconsin's first organized wolf hunt last fall. The DNR said another 126 wolves were killed through depredation control, car crashes, illegal kills and unknown causes.
DNR carnivore specialist David McFarland said the wolf population nearly doubles each spring, when pups are born, and then shrinks. The population counts are conducted in late winter, the period when the population is at its lowest point.
Motorcyclist killed was from Kenosha
A man killed in Pleasant Prairie when the motorcycle he was riding struck a median has been identified by police as Dennis E. Olsen Jr., 42, of Kenosha.
The crash was reported shortly after 5 p.m. Sunday near 75th St. at 49th Ave. Olsen was trying to pass a vehicle on the left when he struck the median.
Green Bay man charged in death of girlfriend
Green Bay - Michael Whitmire, 50, of Green Bay, has been charged with first-degree intentional homicide in the stabbing death of his girlfriend. He appeared Monday in Brown County court, where a judge set a $250,000 cash bond. Ouida Wright, 45, was found fatally stabbed at her Green Bay home on Friday.

By Dow Jones Newswires
U.K. media group Pearson PLC and a few private equity firms have approached India's Manipal Global about purchasing a stake in the Indian education services company, the Times of India website reported Tuesday, citing at least two people directly involved with the matter.
Pearson has held preliminary discussions with Manipal Global but is only interested if a "large stake" is up for sale, the report cited one of the persons as saying.
Separately, private equity firms Apax Partners and Baring Asia are also eyeing the Manipal Global stake, but discussions are at an early stage, the report said.
Manipal Global is seeking to raise debt and equity to buy back stakes held by existing shareholders IDFC and Capital International, based on a company valuation that's in excess of $850 million, the report added.

Formulation of dynamical equations of motion51(1983); http://dx.doi.org/10.1119/1.13452View Description Hide Description
Advances in computer technology have brought into reach the solutions of many dynamics problems previously regarded as excessively complex. However, in order actually to carry out solutions, one must be able to generate computational algorithms in an effective way. In the present paper, this issue is confronted through the discussion of a law of motion that is, in essence, a generalization of Lagrange's equations. Following the introduction of ''generalized speeds,'' ''partial angular velocities,'' and ''partial velocities,'' the equations of motion are formulated for a simple system in order to illustrate each of these concepts in concrete terms. To provide a basis for comparisons, the equations of motion of the system are then formulated also by employing Lagrange's equations.
Solitons in undergraduate laboratory51(1983); http://dx.doi.org/10.1119/1.13453View Description Hide Description
Teaching nonlinear phenomena, from an experimental point of view, in a laboratory for undergraduates in physics has been a motivating experience. We report in this paper on an advanced undergraduate laboratory on solitons in water. After recalling the main aspects of the theory and the principal characteristics of the solitons, the experimental apparatus is described and the results obtained by some students are discussed. A systematic check of the properties of solitons is obtained. An overall evaluation of the laboratory is given at the end.
Holographic detection of defects under the surface of solid objects51(1983); http://dx.doi.org/10.1119/1.13454View Description Hide Description
In this paper we introduce a simple, low‐cost experimental system designed to demonstrate the effectiveness and sensitivity of optical testing to undergraduate students. The technique used involves generating stress by heating a material locally and detecting by holographic interferometry.
Correct use of Maxwell stress equations for electric and magnetic fields51(1983); http://dx.doi.org/10.1119/1.13352View Description Hide Description
By neglecting edge or end effects in electric or magnetic systems and by using certain other conventional approximation techniques one may inadvertently create conditions that contradict some of the assumptions upon which Maxwell stress tensors and stress integrals are derived. Correction terms must then be added to the stress equations to make them usable. The nature of these correction terms is discussed and several illustrative examples are given.
Causality paradoxes and nonparadoxes: Classical superluminal signals and quantum measurements51(1983); http://dx.doi.org/10.1119/1.13351View Description Hide Description
A potential causality paradox in quantum mechanics involving the measurement of a correlated system of two atoms that have moved far apart is constructed along the lines of a classical causality paradox involving the exchange of superluminal signals between distant observers. It is shown that the quantum measurement example does not lead to a paradox, but that the results have implications for the interpretation of quantum mechanics. The thought experiments presented have been used in undergraduate courses in special relativity and quantum mechanics.
Measuring the speed of light by independent frequency and wavelength determination51(1983); http://dx.doi.org/10.1119/1.13358View Description Hide Description
The most recent measurements of the speed of light have been based on a separate determination of the frequency and wavelength of laser radiation. As a result of the increased precision and the imbalance in precision between frequency and wavelength measurements, the speed of light in a vacuum c (299,792,458 m/s) has been proposed as a defined standard constant connecting time and length measurements. This paper reports on a student experiment at the intermediate undergraduate level that contains the fundamental elements found in the most recent determination of c. Harmonic mixing is utilized for the frequency determination and interferometry for the wavelength determination of a 9‐GHz electromagnetic source.
Optical correlations and spectra51(1983); http://dx.doi.org/10.1119/1.13359View Description Hide Description
The well‐known techniques for determining the spectrum and correlation function of a light signal as well as the more recently developed techniques for determining the corresponding functions for the photocurrent produced by the signal are discussed. The fundamental relationships between the four kinds of measurements are emphasized and some of the more specialized differences and interrelations are discussed.
Physics education in China51(1983); http://dx.doi.org/10.1119/1.13360View Description Hide Description
Of all the countries in the world, China probably has the largest number of students learningphysics. How is physics taught in China? And how are the Chinese physics teachers trained? This article will try to give a birds‐eye view of these and related topics.
The extended Galilean transformation and the path integral51(1983); http://dx.doi.org/10.1119/1.13361View Description Hide Description
We demonstrate how the behavior of the Schrödinger equation under the transformation,x′=x+ξ(t), t′=t, can be easily discerned within the path integral formalism.
A simple mechanical model exhibiting a spontaneous symmetry breaking51(1983); http://dx.doi.org/10.1119/1.13362View Description Hide Description
We discuss a simple mechanical system and show that it exhibits a spontaneous symmetry breaking quite similar to a Landau second‐order phase transition.
Weighing the Earth with a sextant51(1983); http://dx.doi.org/10.1119/1.13363View Description Hide Description
This article presents a simple, but accurate, method for determining the distance of the Moon using a cheap sextant. This result can then be used to obtain the size of the Moon and the mass of the Earth.
On the approach to electro‐ and magneto‐static equilibrium51(1983); http://dx.doi.org/10.1119/1.13364View Description Hide Description
Many textbooks claim that the relaxation time for the approach to electrostatic equilibrium is ε0/σ. We show that, for a good conductor, this claim is false. For such a conductor, the approach to the electro‐ and magneto‐static equilibrium hinges on the damping of the induced dynamic electric and magnetic fields. The relaxation time depends on the conductivity, the geometry of the conductor, and the details of the initial charge distribution.
Experiments on magnetic repulsion51(1983); http://dx.doi.org/10.1119/1.13365View Description Hide Description
Three different experiments on magnetic repulsion are discussed. Elementary theory and a very simple and low‐cost setup are needed. The experiments can be used by students as a project or by the teacher as a class demonstration.
Hybrid expansion and improved convergence: An example51(1983); http://dx.doi.org/10.1119/1.13366View Description Hide Description
Approximate solutions of algebraic systems using a hybrid of transcendental functions and series expansions are discussed. Convergence comparison of the results of this approach is made with those of the usual series expansion solution for the effect of a linear resisting medium on projectile range in Newtonian dynamics.
Experimental observation of ionization waves51(1983); http://dx.doi.org/10.1119/1.13443View Description Hide Description
Ionizationwaves are a type of low‐frequency plasma oscillation found in dc glow discharges. A conceptual discussion of this wave process is presented and an inexpensive and simple apparatus to observe standing ionizationwaves is described. Some simple measurements were made and found to agree well with empirical ideas that are discussed.
High‐frequency magnetic measurements using small inductive probes51(1983); http://dx.doi.org/10.1119/1.13444View Description Hide Description
Experiments with small magnetic probes suitable for advanced undergraduates are described. The experiments are designed to show that an inductive probe does not respond to high‐frequency signals (1–70 MHz) as might be expected from experience with probes at low frequencies. Pickup of noninductive signals is demonstrated, resonances are observed, and the inductance, capacitance, resistance, and effective area of the probe are measured. In addition, the conductivity of copper and aluminum is found using thin metal foils.
Relativistic one‐dimensional hydrogen atom51(1983); http://dx.doi.org/10.1119/1.13445View Description Hide Description
The energyeigenvalues and eigenfunctions of the relativistic one‐dimensional hydrogen atom with a delta function interaction are obtained by solving the Dirac equation. The single bound state is compared to the ground state of the relativistic three‐dimensional hydrogen atom.
Early observations of negative pressures in liquids51(1983); http://dx.doi.org/10.1119/1.13353View Description Hide Description
In 1661–62 Huygens discovered that liquid water could exist metastably at a pressure lower than the vapor pressure. At first Boyle could not reproduce the results, but following a visit to London made by Huygens in 1663, Boyle demonstrated that the mercury in a barometer could stick and support a tension of two atmospheres. This was still known in 1805 to Young and Laplace, who explained the phenomenon in terms of cohesion, but seems then to have been forgotten. Modern work on negative pressures starts with the independent rediscovery of the phenomenon several times starting in 1846, and it is now explained in terms of metastable regions of the equation of state.

Abdusalamov Targets Tyson Fury For Martinez-Macklin Bill
By Rick Reeno
Boxing adviser/promoter Sampson Lewkowicz advised BoxingScene.com that heavyweight prospect Magomed Abdusalamov (12-0, 12KOs) is ready to fight British/Commonwealth champion Tyson Fury (17-0, 12KOs) next. Abdusalamov returned to the ring on Sunday night at Texas Station in Las Vegas, and stopped Rich Power in the third round of a one-sided fight. Coming into the match, Power (15-2, 11KOs) had one loss on his record, an eight round decision to Fury in September 2010.
Lewkowicz's star boxer, WBC Diamond middleweight champion Sergio Martinez, is likely going to face Matthew Macklin on March 17th. Lewkowicz would like to see Martinez-Macklin land in New York's Madison Square Garden, with Abdusalamov facing Fury in the co-feature.
"Tonight you saw that Abdusalamov is the real deal. He punished this kid for three rounds. The guy couldn't take the punishment anymore. This is the same guy who took Tyson Fury the distance last year. Fury wants to debut in America and make a name for himself. Well, Abdusalamov is ready to fight him. And I would like to make that fight on the Martinez-Macklin undercard," Lewkowicz told BoxingScene.com.

Fury was never hurt bad, he was stunned. The early stoppages did not change the outcome, he would've eventually stopped both men.Comment by Cloud on 11-21-2011
I like Fury. He's generating hype and is exciting to watch but mostly because he is a serious KO waiting to happen. I think his win over Chisora was lucky because Del Boy showed up looking bad. Pajkic and Firtha…Comment by #CaneloKhan on 11-21-2011

Who would you rather own and why in a straight points (G=A, A=1) limited keeper league?
van Riemsdyk
Who would you rather own and why in a straight points (G=A, A=1) limited keeper league?
I'm going with Landeskog, Voracek and van Riemsdyk.
But, could you provide us more info about your league, as in positional requirements?
Voted Landeskog. Think all 3 have similar ceilings between 70-75 points but I think Landeskog has the ability and the right team around him to hit that level more consistently.
Landeskog is the safe points, plays with MacKinnon, never seems to get hurt, just a solid player all the way around.
Voracek, to me, is the risky pick, he might out-point Landeskog once or twice, but Landeskog will be more consistent.
JVR is the oldest, with the lowest ceiling, with the highest injury risk. He's comfortably third.
15 Team Full Keeper. Total points. Protection List (Expansion) In Bold, Minor League (Protected) in Bold Italics.
Start 11 F, 3 D, 1 G
3 Points: SHO, 2 Points: G, PPA, SHG, SHA, W, 1 Point: A, PPG, GWG, .25 Points: BLK, .1 Points: FOW, SOG, SV, .15 Points: HIT, -.05 Points: FOL, -.15 Points: GA
Forwards: Backstrom, Benn, Bozak, Burakovsky, Giroux, Hossa, Kessel, Krejci, MacKinnon, Marchessault, J. T. Miller, Perron, Sheary, Spooner, Tarasenko, J. Thornton, Toews

Goal: Dubnyk, Greiss, Schneider
2014-15 MHL Champions!
JVR and Voracek are pretty close IMO but Voracek has the bigger upside so I slotted him in 2nd

All three currently play with a superstar, but JVR has the biggest injury risk and the most to lose if he gets moved off that top line. Not that there seems a great risk of that but I think his value would take the biggest hit if he moved from his current position. In points only I like the offensive system in Philly as a solid place for Voracek to put up points. Landy is a great option too though, and colorado has lots of talent as well.
My ranking:
Points only keeper league
7 teams
28 keepers
Weekly line up: 12 F / 6 D / 2 G
Goalie stats: W=2 / SO=2
Points only keeper League, 24 teams, weekly head to head, 2RW, 2LW, 2C, 4D, 1 G , (goalies 2pts for W +3 for SO) [/I][/B]
Keep 11
LW: Gaudreau, Huberdeau, Vesey
C: Seguin, Pavalski, Scheifle
RW: Ryan, Eberle,
D: Klingberg, Ekman-Larsson, Ristolainen, Gostisbehere
G: Crawford
The conservative rankings would be Landeskog, Voracek, JvR. But I think the ceiling rankings would be:
-Landsekog (55pts av) Highest ppg 0.80 (last yr)
-JvR (49pts av) Highest ppg 0.76 (last yr)
-Voracek (53pts av) Highest ppg 0.96 (shortened season)
I'd like to see JvR in a full season with the leafs (without the Olympics) to fully justify this ranking, because this yr between Phillys start and the Leafs finish it kinda brings Voracek and JvR close together. JvR had his back injury in the final games of last yr and toughed it out and played (but was noticeably slow), and after the tough Olympics for USA Kessel and JvR reallllyyyyy cooled off for about 3 weeks after the games. Full normal season will totally justify any ranking between these 3.
2012-13 Shortened season
2013-14 Olympic season (multiple back-to-backs, and then games for the Olympians)
2014-15 Normal season
Every type of NHL season will happen. Any young guy's rankings that have been fantasy relevant starting in 2013 shortened season will be solidified after this seasons results.
I like Landeskog here for sure.
Youngest of the group and the Avs should continue to improve as will Landy!

These ball-end long hex bits are a absolute must have. How HF can manufacture these, sell them at this price, and still make money is a mystery. Mass quantity I guess. People saying these break easily please read: These bit sockets are made of S2 tool steel, the same steel used to make jackhammer bits and air hammer bits. It's used in applications that are exposed to high shock loads. That being said, it doesn't have much give in terms of twisting and bending motions. You have to keep this in mind when using these bits! If it feels like it's gonna break, STOP. The tool truck's have the same type of ball-end hex bits and they also break if too much torque is applied! The idea is to remove the fastener not break the tool. If it won't break loose stop what your doing and explore other options, instead of posting a one star review about how these tools are cheap and break easily. It's called finesse, get some.

I use these on a daily basis in my small engine repair shop.These work great on two stroke line trimmers and chainsaws as the ball lets you move around to accommodate different angles.I have put some serious torq on these and have never had one break or strip,the small one to tend to bend a tad but i couldnt be happier with these.For this price its a steal!If your not doing serious automotive repair on a daily basis i wouldnt think of buying any other set.

Good tool for the money
By The Stumpy

About Me Avid Do-It-Yourselfer
Comments about Pittsburgh 7 Pc 3/8 in. Drive Metric Long Reach Ball Head Hex Socket Set:
Worked just as expected. Good tool at a great price. If you're looking for a "tool truck" quality ball head Allen wrench, this ain't it. It's also no where near the tool truck price. So, for what you pay this is a great tool. Two thumbs up. Would buy again.
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Comment on this review
By Nick
from Lancaster, PA
Works great for what I needed, replacing a EGR valve on a 2001 Jetta VR6. The hex bolt was in a tight spot, not easily accessible. This did the trick with a small 3/4 socket extension. Without this hex socket, I would have to remove the the alternator to get to the bolt. This saved me a lot more extra work.The bolt was not on tight so I didn't have problem with the ball breaking off. The quality seems good for the price. I will have to see how these sockets will last long term. But it was worth it for my EGR valve replacement job.

I agree that they can break easily.
By Audi Mechanic by Necessity
from Appleton, WI
I used these ball end hex drivers for a timing belt job on my Audi. They work great for bolts that are obstructed, but if you need to put any force on the bolt to loosen it the head of the hex driver will snap off on the smaller sizes. I snapped the 5mm trying to remove the bolts on the thermostat housing. I would still recommend them, but just know that they are prone to breakage.

broke on first use applying only 70 inch pounds of torque

Utilizing a hash function algorithm to help secure data
Learn how a hash function algorithm -- specifically a one-way hash function of the Dynamic SHA-2 algorithm -- can help protect important documents using a variety of hashes to confuse malicious code.
The following is an example, written in Visual Basic, of how to compute the SHA-256 hash for the data string "myPassword"...

and display it in a label called Label1:
Imports System.Text
Imports System.Security.Cryptography
Public Class Form1
Private Function ComputeSHA256Hash(ByVal Password As String) As String
' Convert Password into a byte array.
Dim passwordBytes As Byte()
passwordBytes = Encoding.UTF8.GetBytes(Password)
' Initialize the SHA256 hashing algorithm class
Dim shaM As New SHA256Managed()
' Compute hash value of the password.
Dim hashBytes As Byte()
hashBytes = shaM.ComputeHash(passwordBytes)
' Convert hash into a base64-encoded string.
ComputeSHA256Hash = Convert.ToBase64String(hashBytes)
End Function
Private Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click
Label1.Text = ComputeSHA256Hash("myPassword")End Sub
End Class
The ComputeSHA256Hash function uses the .NET Framework Class Library System.Security.Cryptography class. It takes the string Password and turns it into a byte-array. It then runs those bytes through the SHA256Managed computation function provided by the class and returns a 44-bit string of the hash that's created. It finally displays via Labe1.Text. The hash for myPassword using this program is dlSbgn7EbnBf0DgxgT+lIXIzjw38vXEe1EuBqW2sUcY=. If you change the input to mzPassword, so just one character different, the hash changes to something completely different - XkdNLN2VuBgcMjhI/Dg0ioj4Eds6FLDF3lRlBxt+I4U=.
For security reasons, if you are using hash values to store passwords, you may well want to use a salt, as this makes a hashed-password less immune to dictionary attacks. Not only would the hacker have to develop a hash for every commonly known password, but also for every commonly known password multiplied by the nearly infinite number of possible salts.

A man performing surveying work behind the LaBar Village retirement community in Stroudsburg slipped in the snow and fell Thursday into McMichael Creek where it flows underneath the I-80 overpass.
According to initial scanner reports, the man climbed out of the creek but was experiencing severe cramping after being in the water.
Emergency responders from Stroudsburg and East Stroudsburg fire departments and Suburban EMS got the call at 11:35 a.m., according to Stroudsburg Fire Captain George Gass.
They loaded the man onto a plastic gurney and used a rope wrapped around a tree trunk to pull the man up a steep embankment to a waiting ambulance by 12:15 p.m.

I've been using Hatch since yesterday and I'm loving it so far.
Had no problem with changing a couple of things except for this minor thing.
I want to change the headers height, but I can't manage to change it. I've been looking in style.css but couldn't make it work with changing #header or #header img.
What am i doing wrong, could anyone help me with it?
Thanks in advance.

Then, I saw this "TLG*GREATFN 54845887" coming up monthly since october last year (2007) charging me 12.99 a month for a total of 116.91 USD!! I don't even know waht this company is??! Nor I have I ever signed up for anything that costs 12.99 a month.
I went to google it immediately and found in this site that a LOT of people are facing the same scam/theft !!
Something has to be done about this company! I think there are enough people to do a class law-suit against them!!
