GRAND BLANC, MI -- Twelve golfers broke 80 and made the cut on the first day of the Mancour Cup Monday at Flint Elks Golf Club in Grand Blanc.
The Flint Junior Golf Association tournament is the second major event of the FJGA's summer schedule and also serves as an automatic qualifier for the American Junior Golf Association's Randy Wise Open, which will be played in August at Warwick Hills Country Club.
Grand Blanc's Alex Finsterwald led all players with a three-under-par 69 Monday and holds a two-stroke lead entering Tuesday's final round. Ben Zyber of Swartz Creek shot a 71, Gabe Schiller of Davison shot a 74, Cruz Ramin a 75, Jack Haggin and Merrick George of Lake Fenton shot a 77 to round out the top five.
Also making the cut for the boys were Jordan Harris (78), Thomas James (80), Michael Kelly (78), Drake Lamphere (78), Evan Flood (79) and Jason Raske (79).
The winner of the tournament will be based on the overall two-day low score.
Samantha Moss of Fenton posted the lowest score of the girls players with an 81. She could qualify for an exemption into the AJGA tournament. Rounding out the top five for the girls were Tailer Przybylowicz (86), Karsen Johnson (86), Mikayla Gilman (86) and Andrea Richards (87).
The final round begins Tuesday at 8 a.m. and should conclude by noon.
The FJGA's summer tournament scheduled kicked off last week, July 1, with the Mallon Cup. Jack Weller of Swartz Creek won the boys division of that tournament and Caycee Turczyn of Lapeer West took home the girls trophies.
Remaining tournaments for the FJGA's Jack Nicklaus Group include the Hendrickson Award tournament July 15 at Atlas Valley Country Club and FJGA Championship Tournament July 29-31 at Swartz Creek Golf Club.

Even more silica than horsetail grass
Standardized to 70% organic silica
Supports hair, skin and nail health
You probably already know horsetail grass is a great source of natural silica, but it's nothing compared to bamboo. While horsetail is about 7% silica by weight, bamboo boasts an average 70% all-natural silica concentration! The average healthy adult maintains approximately 20 grams of silica within the body, but that level tends to drop with age due to reduced assimilation and other factors. Supplementing with quality all-natural silica like our Bamboo Extract is a great way to ensure healthy intake and nourish the vital tissues that depend on this essential nutrient.
Serving Size 1 Veggie Capsule
|Amount Per Serving
|% Daily Value
|Bamboo Extract(Bambusa vulgaris) (stems) (standardized to 70% silica)

Why Latin America Urgently Needs CRA, and Why CRA Won't Work for Latin America
When I speak of a Community Reinvestment Act (CRA) for Latin America, I mean a mechanism that monitors and makes bank activities public. Thanks to CRA, we know where banks lend, to whom they lend (by income, race, ethnicity,and gender), and to what degree these customers reflect the profiles of the banks' depositors. We can detect discriminatory policies toward the poor in both lending and deposits. The CRA has also created incentives for banks and other financial institutions to increase their presence in and their services to low-income neighborhoods.

The Games
Enjoy your stay and have fun playing my games!
All about me
So... Who am I? My name, as you have probably guessed, is John Tear. I live in the UK, England to be more exact, and have had an interest in games programming since I was a kid.
I started my first Macromedia (Yes it used to be Macromedia) Flash game in 2001, it was a basic version of the Bullseye! game on my website. The game was written as a bit of fun, but became very popular so I decided to write more games. After five years I am still writing games and enjoy it very much.
If you need help with your own Flash project I am happy to answer any ActionScript related questions by email.
If you are running a non-commercial web site and you would like to feature my games then I am usually happy to allow this, provided you ask for my permission first. I am not doing this for the sake of doing it - I need to pay a mortgage and it takes a lot of my time producing the games.
If you are here to play my games I would appreciate it if you visited my sponsers at the top and bottom of the page.
You can also contact me usingYahoo! Messenger [john.tear]

TUSCALOOSA, Alabama -- Christmas came early to three tornado-stricken Tuscaloosa City Schools, according to one librarian, after they each received $2,000 worth of books this week.
The TCS reports that Alberta Elementary, University Place Elementary and University Middle filled their libraries with books thanks to a federal grant. The Birmingham News recently reported that the Alabama Humanities Foundations was awarded $30,000 from DEMA to help damaged public and school libraries rebuild and refill their shelves following the devastation of the April 27 tornado.
TCS said librarians selected books for their libraries and classroom sets of books for the teachers.
Alberta Elementary librarian Mary Schellhammer said she got a little teary-eyed knowing someone put in the work to write the grant to get the books for the Tuscaloosa schools.


text: Los Angeles singer/songwriter and guitarist Neal Morse began his musical career early, taking piano lessons at five and performing in musicals and beginning guitar by the age of nine. By the time he reached his twenties, Morse wrote two musicals and played with Al Stewart and Peter White. After returning from an extensive European trip, Morse formed the progressive rock band Spock's Beard with his brother Al; the group released its debut album, The Light, in 1994. In addition to his duties with Spock's Beard, Morse released his self-titled solo debut 1999 on Metal Blade Records, and produced and arranged all of the album's tracks. With 2003's Testimony, Morse began to infuse his deeply held religious convictions into his work, a trend that continued with 2004's One and 2005's ?. In 2006 he collaborated with Dream Theater drummer Mike Portnoy and bassist Randy George on Cover to Cover, yes, a covers collection. Morse resumed that collaboration in 2007 on his highly controversial concept album Sola Scriptura. In 2011, Morse returned to the story he started in 2003 with Testimony Two, which further detailed his spiritual awakening as well as his decision to leave Spock's Beard. ~ Heather Phares & Thom Jurek, Rovi

From Dow Jones Newswires' Yvonne Lee and Esther Fung:
Chinese property developer Greentown China Holdings has agreed to sell a stake in the company to Hong Kong-listed conglomerate Wharf (Holdings) Ltd., a person familiar with the situation said Friday.
The person, however, declined to comment on the size of the stake and the value of the deal.
The acquisition by Wharf comes after more than two years of policy tightening in China's property market, which has hit financially-strapped developers such as Greentown China, driving better-funded real estate companies to pick up prized assets from weaker players.
The sale would likely improve Greentown's cash position and bolster its prospects in the current tight environment, which had compelled the Hangzhou-based developer late last year to sell some of its property projects for cashflow purposes.
The luxury home developer sold assets in a few Chinese cities, including a stake in a prized plot of land near the Shanghai Bund, to raise capital after the government's tightening measures, especially limits on home purchases, dried up sales of high-end homes.
Shares of Greentown, Wharf and Wharf's parent Wheelock & Co. were suspended from trading Friday morning. Hangzhou-based Greentown said at the time the suspension was due to an announcement which may involve the issue of securities but didn't give further details.
Wharf, controlled by Hong Kong billionaire Peter Woo, operates property businesses in China and Hong Kong. Its businesses also include pay-television company i-Cable Communications Ltd., fixed-line telecommunications provider Wharf T&T Ltd., and ports operator Modern Terminals Ltd.
Analysts are anticipating consolidation in the fragmented greater China property market as the sector is showing increasing signs of distress, given that the number of large deals that have been completed hasn't been as large as earlier projected.
In particular, mainland China developers have struggled with Beijing's efforts to control new home prices. Local and national tightening measures have included restrictions on mortgages and lending to developers, as well as limits on second-home purchases, leading to falling sales and prices in many cities.

Jay Sekulow, chief counsel of the American Center for Law and Justice, has joined some members of Congress in calling for a special counsel on the Internal Revenue Service's targeting of conservative groups. In an online column Sekulow noted Sens. Ted Cruz, R-Texas, and Lindsey Graham, R-S.C., along with Rep. Trey Gowdy, said a special counsel is necessary. "Why? Because the IRS is continuing its partisan targeting," Sekulow wrote. He also accused Democrats on Capitol Hill and the Obama administration of hindering a congressional investigation into IRS misconduct. "This atmosphere of partisan lawlessness (a theme with this administration that was only amplified by yet another unilateral change in Obamacare deadlines) leaves citizens with no confidence that the administration can possibly police itself," Sekulow said.
Read more of Jay Sekulow's column here.
American opinion pollster Pat Caddell said the reason Republican leadership hasn't pushed for a high level investigation of the IRS is because they want the agency to go after the Tea Party.
"When you have 71 percent who want an investigation, 64 percent who believe it is a sign of corruption, including nearly a majority of Democrats, the reason is the establishment Republicans want the IRS to go after the Tea Party. Got it?" Caddell told Fox News "Political Insiders" Sunday.
"They want them to go after the Tea Party because the Tea Parties are an outside threat to their power hold," he said. "And I'm telling you the lobbying consulting class of the Republican Party or Republican leadership who have been attacking the Tea Party and alienating them, they want the IRS to do this!"

The "Beautiful Game" can be larger than life much of the time, and often it's the big personalities that make it so. The spectacle of football is made all the more exciting, entertaining and sometimes hilarious by the antics of the game's most colorful players on and off the pitch. But sometimes the game has extra thrills in and of itself: the fancy footwork, the spectacular goals, the NASCAR-esque collisions.
Here's our tribute to the 20 most entertaining players in world football history, who won fans and made headlines for performances on and off the pitch. If you have your own picks you'd like to add, please tell us in the comments.

RMJM, an international architecture firm with U.S. headquarters in New York City, and the Harvard University Graduate School of Design have launch a $2 million program aimed at stemming the global shortage of architects.
Despite the current building boom, many recent architecture and engineering school graduates are choosing to pursue lucrative careers in high-tech management consulting, according to the Society for Marketing Professional Services, a nonprofit trade association serving the architecture, engineering, and construction industry.
"Our contact with former students reveals that very many qualified graduates do not actually go into the profession," said Spiro N. Pollalis, a Harvard professor of design technology and management. "This may be indicative of a wider trend elsewhere. We have particularly noted an increase in the number of graduates who instead pursue careers in investment banking and management consultancy."
The RMJM Program for Research and Education in Integrated Design Practice will be established with a $1.5 million donation from RMJM and $500,000 from the Harvard GSD. The program aims to encourage more architects to enter the profession by training them to integrate business management principles and knowledge of advanced technologies with design skills to improve project delivery, client satisfaction, and bottom-line results.
"The future of the industry hinges on architects' ability to regain control of the design and construction process," said RMJM Chief Executive Peter Morrison. "We passionately believe that tomorrow's super-designer will be as equally adept and sophisticated commercially and economically as he or she is architecturally."
RMJM's gift will support advanced student and faculty research, the development of case studies an curricula, and the dissemination of resesarch findings.

Zarook - a fine sportsman and administrator
by Upananda Jayasundera, Kandy Sports Special Corr.
Central Province has a fine sportsman and sports administrator in Z. M. Zarook who represented Vidyartha College in the fifties in athletics, cricket, football and hockey.
It was in cricket that Zarook first showed signs of capability when he made 62 runs in the inaugural 'Big Match' against St. Sylvester's and helped Vidyartha to win that historic game by an innings under the captaincy of T. B. Wijesinghe.
However, after leaving school, it was in rugby football that he really came off. He represented Kandy Sports Club between 1965 and 1969 playing under captains Y. C. Chang, Jayantissa Ratwatte and the late Denzil Kobbekaduwa. His coaches were Maurice Perera and Dr. Sangakkara.
Having joined the Kandy Municipal Council, he represented them at cricket between 1963 and 1965 and has a score of 192 against the Health Department.
It was not only playing rugby football, and cricket, Zarook was keen to give something back to the game and he became a qualified rugby football coach and a cricket coach too. He also qualified as a cricket umpire and is a member of the Central Province Cricket Umpires Association.
As a cricket coach, he first started with Gampola Zahira College in the late seventies and switched over as coach of Madeena Central College Madawala juniors from 1984 to 1992 and his coaching was well received and Madeena Centre became under 15 champions in the division three tournament in 1985 and the following year became runners-up in the division two tourney. Right now he is coaching Madawala Sports Club team.
Rugby coaching too occupied a special place in Zarook's assignments. He first started with Gampola Zahira College between 1978 and 1980 and then switched over to coaching Kingswood between 1981 to 1989 and his coaching seemed well received as in that first year as well, Kingswood became champions in the Tyrell Muttiah Trophy Tournament in 1981 and later on in 1986 became all island sevens champs. He also coached Dharmaraja College in late eighties and also in 1991.
At Kingswood, he got up some fine players like Ibrahim brothers, Ananda Kasturiarachchi and Lalith Wijeratne and from Dharmaraja there was Indrajith Bandaranayake.
Right now, Zarook is the cricket co-ordinator Central Province for Sri Lanka Cricket.

Also, Ray Peat has been offering this "alternate" perspective for years now. Anyone can go find out what he has to say anytime they want. ;)[/QUOTE]
The thing is: people frequently joke about how loosely this forum is moderated. I'm willing to bet that this is an intentional move by Mark. I'm sure he knows that conflict gives birth to new ideas. He's a smart man, and a nice person to boot. Thought policing just leads to totalitarianism.

The second presentation on Friday was an update by members of the Advocacy Team, Meghan Buzby, Director of US Advocacy, and Aimee Martin, Grassroots Liaison.
First they reminded us why advocacy is so important. Advocacy raises public awareness of myeloma, ensures that all of us have a voice and that it will be heard. Advocacy changes community attitudes and helps us gain access to resources and funding.
Then they talked about the accomplishments of the Team. And, frankly, the Advocacy Team has been on fire this year on our behalf.
The hot advocacy topics for 2012 are that the Supreme Court upheld the Affordable Care Act and that, thanks in no small part to the tireless activities of the Advocacy Team, 20 states have passed a version of Oral Chemotherapy Access legislation.
Meghan explained the Affordable Care Act to us in lay language. It is pretty complicated, but from what I understood, every state will provide 10 essential health benefits. Advocacy is working to contact states that have identified their essential health benefits to make sure that access to those benefits is implemented. View the slides for this session here.
Meghan then gave us some key links for more information on the Affordable Care Act:
- http://healthcare.gov
- http://healthcareandyou.org
- http://USA.gov
- http://CMS.gov
- http://healthreform.kff.org (Kaiser Family Foundation)
The Advocacy Team has been working on this issue for 3 years. Oral Chemo Access ensures that out of pocket cost is the same for oral and IV chemotherapy. The legislation has been passed by 20 states so far. Six passed it this year alone.
At the Federal level HR 2746 is the Cancer Coverage Parity Act. So far there are 45 sponsors of the bill (in 2009 there were only 5 sponsors).
PEAC, headed by the IMF Advocacy Team, is working with other cancer organizations at the state level on this issue. Meghan and Aimee pointed out that working at the state level is laying the groundwork for federal legislation. Members of PEAC also worked to reintroduce the federal bill last year.
Aimee told us about Postcards for Parity, which will be used to send to an individual's federal legislators in support of HR 2746. It is a very easy way for your friends and family to communicate with their legislators on behalf of an important issue to all cancer patients.
Then it was time for Debbie Birns of the Hotline to explain our test results.

Sergei Bobrovsky spent part of his first Thanksgiving in the United States yesterday the same way he has spent almost any other day since arriving in Philadelphia in late August: stopping pucks and laughing with his teammates.
Besides his family, girlfriend and friends back in Russia, his newfound success and fans in Philadelphia, and his health, Bobrovsky can be thankful for being paired with Flyers goaltending coach Jeff Reese.
While Bobrovsky received a well-deserved break over the last week after reeling off a 9-1-1 record in 11 straight games, he spent most of his time with Reese, watching tape and retooling his game before heading back to the crease on Wednesday night in Minnesota.

LC-MS Gains Favor Due To the...
As Immunotherapy Revolutionizes the Cancer Treatment...
In a development that promises to advance stem cell therapies, scientists have demonstrated an effective strategy for inducing immunological tolerance of tissues derived from human embryonic stem cells (hESCs). The scientists, based at UC-San Diego, showed that expression of a pair of immune-suppressing molecules can allow allogenic hESCs to survive in "humanized" mice without triggering immune rejection.
The molecules are CTLA4-lg, an FDA-approved drug for treating rheumatoid arthritis that suppresses T-cells responsible for immune rejection, and a protein called PD-L1, which is known to be important for inducing immune tolerance in tumors. Just one or the other molecule fails to protect transplanted cells from rejection. The combination of both molecules, however, appears to be effective. The reasons why remain unclear, say the scientists.
The scientists reported their findings in Cell Stem Cell, in an article published January 2. In this article, the scientists emphasized that they demonstrated immunological tolerance in an in vivo context, in laboratory mice that contained a functional human immune system. To create their model of the human immune system, the scientists took immune-deficient laboratory mice and grafted into their bodies human fetal thymus tissues and hematopoietic stem cells derived from fetal liver of the same human donor. Ultimately, the mice contained a functional human immune system capable of mounting a vigorous immune rejection of foreign cells derived from hESCs.
With their mouse model, the scientists tested a variety of immune-suppressing molecules alone or in combination. It was then that the scientists hit upon the combination of CTLA4-lg and PD-L1. "If we express both molecules in cells derived from human embryonic cells, we can protect these cells from the allogenic immune rejection," said Yang Xu, a professor of biology at UC San Diego who led the study. "If you have only one such molecule expressed, there is absolutely no impact. We still don't know exactly how these pathways work together to suppress immune rejection, but now we've got an ideal system to study this."
Reflecting on the study, Xu noted that it suggested a way of avoiding the shortcomings of systemic immunosuppressant drugs, which include cytotoxicity and increased risk of infection and cancer. "[With] organ transplantation to save patients with terminal diseases, [immunosuppressants have] been quite successful. But for stem cell therapies, the long-term use of toxic immunosuppressant drugs for patients who are being treated for chronic diseases like Parkinson's disease or diabetes poses serious health problems."
Besides pointing to new ways of overcoming the problem of allogenic immune rejection of hESC-derived cells by recipients, the study may offer tools needed to develop ways to activate the immune response to tumors. "You're dealing with the same exact pathways that protect tumors from our immune system," said Xu. "If we can develop strategies to disrupt or silence these pathways in tumors, we might be able to activate immunity to tumors. The humanized mouse system is really a powerful model with which to study human tumor immunity."

With the 2012 election only days away, our collective patience for political pandering and overheated campaign rhetoric is wearing thin. On Tuesday, the overriding urge of many – after heading to the voting booth, of course – may be to bury their heads in the sand and press the mute button on the political noise machine.
To that end, a group of Buffalo-based performers has organized "Election Asylum," an event designed to provide refuge from the deafening static of the election season. From 8 to 11 p.m. Tuesday in Rust Belt Books (202 Allen St.), Ron Ehmke, Jeannine Giffear, Frank Goldberg and Ruth Goldman will host an evening of "participatory performances, games of chance, group therapy exercises, open-mic rants, and of course periodic glimpses at the latest election results behind partially closed eyes."
"Participants will be skyping to swing states, meeting fourth party candidates and those elusive undecided voters, and evading pollsters," a release about the event promises. "Renowned psychotherapist Dr. Luvstrang will be on hand to counsel voters suffering from 'Pre-Election Stress Disorder,' and emcee Ronawanda will mix and mingle among the crowd, making sure no one misses out on any of the action when guest stars drop by."
Visitors are asked to bring either a $5 donation or food or drinks to share. More info is at 885-9535.

Sand Flea Jumping Robot
Sand Flea is an 11-lb robot with one trick up its sleeve: Normally it drives like an RC car, but when it needs to it can jump 30 feet into the air. An onboard stabilization system keeps it oriented during flight to improve the view from the video uplink and to control landings. Current development of Sand Flea is funded by the The US Army's Rapid Equipping Force.

WASHINGTON (AP) - Former Enron executive Michael Kopper will plead guilty to wire fraud and money laundering charges, the first admission of guilt in the federal investigation of the fallen energy giant.
Kopper, former managing director of Enron Global Finance, will enter pleas Wednesday in Houston to single charges of conspiracy to commit wire fraud and money laundering, sources close to the investigation said Tuesday.
Kopper was a top lieutenant to ex-chief financial officer Andrew Fastow and became a focus of investigators because of his involvement in Enron-related partnerships. Whether the plea was attached to an agreement to cooperate with investigators was not immediately clear.

Will you guys be able to ship some items out? I'd love to buy things, if possible. I'll definitely do what I can to support you guys
Hey all. I mentioned a while back that my family is starting up a local pastured poultry farm. We've been putting together our business plan and building a customer base over the past few months.
Boy what a crazy week it's been! Loralei and I are finding that the necessary capital to kick start our pastured poultry operation has become difficult to come by. We had a couple of income generating options in the pipeline but they have fallen through.
When we mentioned the challenges to our new/soon-to-be customers, and indicated that we were going to have to suspend plans and just focus on produce this year, we got a really sizeable outpouring of support and a good number of people have encouraged us to get a fund raising project up and running on Kickstarter for our pastured meat bird operation... I hadn't ever considered that the community might want a pastured alternative to CornishX birds that much, but I guess a lot of folks really want these options!
In any event, we've gone ahead and set one up!
We can really use the support of like minded individuals for this. I know some folks are super tight on money and please don't donate if you can't afford it, but please do help us get the word out!
Here's our link!!

Will you guys be able to ship some items out? I'd love to buy things, if possible. I'll definitely do what I can to support you guys
I do appreciate the moral support though, and if you feel like donating, of course that would be greatly appreciated as well.
Wow the response has been amazing so far! We are currently at 60% of our goal. We need about 100 more folks willing to pledge $15 to help us get our pastured poultry enterprise up and running!
We just got some awesome pics this past weekend, out at our Seattle Tilth Farm Works location, working with the 2012 cohort and some volunteers to prepare the fields for sowing! I'm working on getting them up on an album. Stay tuned!
If you are so inclined, please do pledge and/or help us get the word out!

One evolution I have witnessed personally, almost from start to modern times, is the development of the gasoline service station.
The carriage became horseless in about 1915 and the automobiles became more common in the early 1920s. At first, gasoline was kept in barrels with the car tanks filled by bucket and funnel.
As this infernal machine proliferated, enterprising merchants installed a pump stand on the sidewalk in front of their businesses. The desired amount of gasoline was pumped into an overhead glass tube with gallons measured on the sides. The tube of gas emptied into your gas tank by gravity. Customers made sure they held the sag out of the hose to empty completely as gasoline cost about eight cents a gallon at the time.
The number of vehicles developed faster than the roads they traveled. About the time Congress authorized Route 66 and other road improvements, the Crash of '29 and the Great Depression arrived. Time almost stood still until the economy recovered but vehicle numbers increased.
By the mid-1930s, the evolution of the service station began in earnest. The old gravity-fed pumps were replaced by electrical pumps. Blacksmith shops widened their doors to accommodate autos for repairs. Anyone handy with tools became a shade-tree mechanic.
The oil refining companies realized the big profits lay in the retail sales rather than in production and started building filling stations at busy intersections. Service seemed to be the word and we progressed quickly from self-service at gravity pumps to full service with attendants checking the oil, filling the tank, cleaning the windshield and offering clean restrooms for clientele.
The service part of gas stations developed as well with flat-fixing, oil changes, lubrication, washing and mechanical repairs all offered under one roof.
A complete revolution took place in the development of tools and supplies available to car owners. The old knuckle-buster wrenches were replaced with shiny easy-to-use tools. Oil in bulk was placed into quart cans for easy access and squirt cans abandoned when sealed bearings came along.
I can remember when tire patches came in sheets and scissors were used to cut the size patch desired then cooked onto the inner tube.
Tire boots came the same way but the edges had to be trimmed smooth with a pocket knife before installing. A hole in a casing, as tires were called at the time, could be repaired with such a boot.
I have a collection of mechanical jacks, all invented before hydraulic jacks. Oil filters came along in the 1940s as well as both six- and 12-volt batteries. South Wind heaters and window coolers could be bought and installed at your local Super Service Station.
Today, we pull cars into a long line of automated gas pumps, insert our credit cards into a slot and fill our car tanks with ease. We can clean our windshields while we pump gas all without ever seeing an attendant.
Hey, wait a minute! Filling our own car and cleaning our own windows? This is not progress. What are we thinking?

Elisheva Biernoff Solo Show
September 10 – October 10, 2010
ArtForum Review
This is a WPSimpleViewerGallery
Triple Base is proud to announce Folly, a solo show of new work by San Francisco-based Elisheva Biernoff. Folly is an installation that reinvents the architectural follies (fanciful garden structures often in the form of ruins) of the 18th century. The main component of Folly is a trompe l'oeil "ruin" composed of two uneven walls, painted to evoke layers of peeling wallpaper. A window in one of the walls opens onto a flat screen television showing a time-lapse film of a darkening landscape. Vines painted in gouache on cut paper creep over the walls, and the ground is punctuated with bits of painted and sculpted debris. By assembling disparate pieces that mimic reality, Folly creates a fantasy world.
This is a WPSimpleViewerGallery
In the Triple Basement, Biernoff has created a paper sculpture titled Out the Window. This installation, using visual and audio elements, considers the reality of loss and the instinct to preserve. It celebrates the small things we overlook and the large things we undervalue, and meditates on the moments where nature and culture meet. Keeping in mind that the word ecology derives from "oikos," the Greek word for household, this work considers how the home relates to the wider world, and how the wilderness is reintroduced into our homes.
Elisheva Biernoff was born in Albuquerque, New Mexico in 1980. She attended Yale University, Slade School of Fine Art, UCL, London, and received her MFA from California College of the Arts in 2009. Her most recent awards include the Kala Art Institute Fellowship and the 2008 Murphy and Cadogan Fellowship. Her 2010 exhibitions include 2 x 2 Solos: Elisheva Biernoff, ProArts, Oakland, CA and Front and Center: Weather Stream, Headlands Center for the Arts, Sausalito, CA. In 2009 Biernoff participated in Art in Storefronts, administered by San Francisco Arts Commission and Triple Base, San Francisco, CA and her exhibitions included Punctuation, Right Window, San Francisco, CA, Introductions 2009, Root Division, San Francisco, CA and Children of the Revolution, Federal Art Project, Los Angeles, CA.

Hinder is coming to Austintown ... wait, scratch that
January 16, 2013 - Andy Gray
Local promoter Cory Ward announced Tuesday that Hinder and Nonpoint would be performing March 7 at Rodeo Music Hall (formerly Club Gossip). It was going to be the first national act he'd brought to the venue since Theory of a Deadman in 2011.
However, this morning Ward was forced to cancel the show. One of Hinder's band members is about to become a father and his wife's due date was moved up, forcing the band to scrap its March tour dates.
Tickets weren't supposed to go on sale until Saturday, so there are no refunds to pass out.

This Cranberry Orange Pistachio Bark is insanely delicious. I make it late Fall with the intent on keeping it in the freezer and getting a head start on my Christmas goodies. Well the truth is it's very rare that it even makes it until Christmas (whoops) meaning a second batch is usually required. Wrap it up in a lovely box with ribbon, and you have a delicious Christmas gift. You can also use dark or milk chocolate in place of the white chocolate to change things up a bit.
Cranberry Pistachio Bark
Author: Adapted from Best of Bridge
- 1.5lb white chocolate
- 1 cup dried cranberries
- 1-1/2 cup shelled pistachios
- 1 tsp orange zest
- Preheat oven to 350.
- Melt chocolate in the top of a double boiler or on low heat in microwave. Let cool and set aside.
- Roast pistachios 3-5 minutes (do not overcook). Set aside.
- Add cranberries, pistachios and orange zest into melted & cooled chocolate. Pour onto parchment or foil lined cookie sheet (or jelly roll pan, the larger the better). Refrigerate for 30 minutes, remove and break into pieces.
- Store in a ziplock freezer bag and if not using right away, store it in the freezer.

Just out of curiousity how many moms are tanning? I used to be a tanaholic but after having lo I have decided to never tan again. This is also my reasoning for not smoking (even though I didn't smoke before now I DEFINATELY won't). I am not a stuck up person when it comes to people smoking I just will never do it. I am not tanning because I want to stay as healthy as possible for my children. I don't want to get skin cancer at the age of 40 and have my kid have to worry about me. I use self tanner at home..I knew how unhealthy it was before but didn't care. Whats everyone elses opinion?
Do you think tanning is selfish?
I use L'Oreal self tanner from Walmart/target..I am not very good at applying that kind of stuff but it doesn't streak or make me look orange at all..I love it. I have even used it on my face and neck and it has looked ok!

I guess I have never been able to understand the appeal. I don't understand why a fake tan is desirable (any more than enforced palor was in other eras ---- I am sure ti is because in the past being pale meant you were of a liesurely class and didn't have to work, while now being tan means you are of a liesurely class and can go on vacation??), and laying in a booth doing nothing (I assume you can't read?) sounds like it would be boring and a good excuse for a major spiralling-thought anxiety attack on my part!! :)
Other than that....I can't say that every choice I make is always the very best for my health since I struggle with wegith and still eat things that aren't the best all the time.... but I won't purposely introduce something (like smoking, etc) that woudl cause cancer. For my kids and myself...because now that I have kids I can't stand the thought of missing any time with them or getting to see how they grow up etc! Not to mention, all those good books to read!

i love tanning and would go all the time i even went the firts couple of months pregnant but idont have the extra time and i defenetly dont have the extra money so if you can afford it then no its not selfesh but if its tanning or diapers and you pick tanning then it is
My skin won't even tan in a tanning booth. I tried in the past. I even fell asleep in the darn thing. Nada.

If We Ran the World

Radka Dohnalova
Harvard Business School
Aldo Sesia
Harvard Business School
October 28, 2011
Harvard Business School Strategy Unit Case No. 711-490
Cindy Gallop launched If We Ran the World (IWRTW) in February 2010, as what the tech world called minimum viable product, in order to real-world test Gallop's "business of the future" concept while development was ongoing. IWRTW was conceived to bring together human good intentions with corporate good intentions, to activate both into shared action, against shared goals, to deliver shared and mutually accountable results. She wanted to make "doing good as sexy as hell" for both individuals and businesses, to make it quicker, easier, and simpler to turn intention into action, one "microaction" at a time. In January 2011, Gallop's key challenge was how to amplify the IWRTW experience in a way that would make it a more valuable-and immediately understandable-business proposition to a brand. The idea behind the venture was only as good as its business model and its execution.
Learning Objective: This case provides a vehicle for analyzing a business model in an environment with network effects. It shows that every decision that the company makes has both positive and negative consequences. The students are asked to improve the business model so that it emphasizes the positive and mitigates the negative consequences, by building reinforcing feedback between decisions.

The entry from Ruccolo + Faubert Architectes & Ni conception architecture has been announced as the winner of an urban design competition in Montreal. The Plage de l'Est competition looks to bring a vacant site on the St. Lawrence River back to life through community enjoyment with the repurposing of the waterfront spaces with interactive facilities.
The winning proposal suggests a continuous boardwalk that stretches from the entrance to the beach site through a variety of public amenities, such as beach and water-based sports. The walkway arches up over the roof of a service building in the centre and follows the existing contours of the site, with new viewpoints afforded by a newly-created observation point. Plans also include courts for badminton and a skating rink.
Manon Gauthier, Ville de Montréal Executive Committee Member responsible for Culture, Heritage, Design, Space for Life and the Status of Women said: "The Plage de l'Est beach will be a new, shared natural treasure worthy of our status as a UNESCO City of Design. This project is exemplary in that it opens up many more urban planning perspectives and applications for our city, inspired by the recognition and responsibilities that come with that designation."

As you all may have read in earlier articles about my son, Ashton Black, he still is struggling to win his fight with NKH. For those of you who are hearing about him for the first time, he was diagnosed with non-ketotic hyperglycenemia, a metabolic disorder in which he is unable to digest protein. He also was diagnosed with agenesis of the corpus callosum, hydrocephalus (a shunt was placed to drain fluid from the brain), epilepsy, lissencephaly and cerebellar hypoplasia.
After moving from Tiffin to Nashville quite a few months back, we have received great medical care for him and he was doing his best. At 18 months, he finally started tracking objects and communicating very well with my husband, Josh, and I. Although he has come so far in such a short time, he unfortunately got pneumonia. We tried the strongest antibiotics but he was still admitted into the hospital with it again. We tried some more antibiotics but he just is not responding to them.
His current hospice agency told us he will pass away within the next 48 hours. Although they said that a few days ago, he still is holding onto life with a tight grip! He has been such a fighter, even through to the end of life; he has truly opened everyone's eyes. We have had to discontinue feeds because he wasn't tolerating them anymore. He stopped breathing for three minutes straight, has had a fever for more than a week now and has been seizing more than usual.
I want everybody to know, from the viewpoint of a handicapped child's mother, that life is taken for granted way too much. Since Ashton is unable to roll over, sit up, talk, grab toys, have head control or even blink at times, I have come to realize life is way too short. You need to help others every day and be thankful for everything you have. Having a healthy baby is a true miracle, but having a disabled one is a miracle all of its own. People say they see angels in their sleep, but I get to hold one in my arms every day.
After having a child like this, I like to emphasize the importance of parents teaching their children about "the handicapped." It is very hard to take your child out in public and see others point, stare and make comments just because they are uneducated about the disabled. As a mother, it truly does hurt to have people look at your child like he is a monster. It breaks our hearts to have our children not be accepted by family, or others, for that matter. They are Earth's angels, and I hope more children grow up with softer hearts to help them instead of hurt them.
Ashton has been our hearts and our souls. Josh, my daughter Adriana and I are going to be truly devastated when he passes. I know everybody in and around Tiffin has been so supportive of us, reading his Web site, helping us financially and overall giving us support, and we want to thank you all. We are trying to get ready for this transition and we are going to have a huge debt to pay in order to have him transported all of the way back to Ohio and carry out all that has to be done.
Fact Box
Amanda (Raitz) Black is a guest columnist.
When it is time, I would like to invite every one of you whom Ashton has touched, whether you are a complete stranger or close relative. I know Ashton would love to see how many people have made a difference in his life, and the ones for whom he has made a difference. A lot of you know his grandparents, Randy Raitz and Kelly Omlor, Carol and Charles Black; his great grandparents, Gerald and Charlene Raitz, Lois Dearsman, Charles Black, Janis and Tim Fish, Bill and Deborah Elchert; and his great-great grandparents Virginia and Ray Mathews, and Clyde and Sarah Fish.
The funeral home we have chosen is Harrold-Floriana in Fostoria, and the cemetery will be Greenlawn in Tiffin. More information will be given when the time comes. Thank you all so very much for helping us in our time of need. My grandmother, Deborah J. Elchert, has set up an account for us for donations for his funeral at: Old Fort Bank, 33 W. Market St. Tiffin, OH 44883, under the name "Deborah J. Elchert - Memorial Fund for Ashton Black."

To the Editor.—
The Archives has published a series of studies by Weinberger et al related to lateral cerebral ventricular enlargement and apparent atrophic brain changes on computerized tomographic (CT) scans in over 50% of patients with chronic schizophrenia.1-3 In their January 1980 Archives article,3 Weinberger et al report the finding of poor response to neuroleptic treatment in chronic schizophrenic patients with ventricular enlargement compared with a matched control group of chronic schizophrenic patients who have normal ventricular size. Insofar as neuroleptics are dopamine (DA) receptor blockers, the poor response to these drugs in schizophrenic patients with ventricular enlargement suggests that the DA hypothesis may not be applicable to this group of schizophrenic patients.In light of this finding, we have reexamined the results of two earlier studies that failed to show a neuroleptic-potentiating effect in chronic schizophrenia of α-methyl-p-tyrosine (metyrosine), a dopamine synthesis inhibitor.4.5

SHORTER, Ala. (AP) — Alabama's liquor control agency has moved up a hearing to determine if the newly reopened VictoryLand casino in Shorter will get a license to serve liquor.
A spokesman for the Alabama Alcoholic Beverage Control Board, Hal Taylor, said the hearing was moved from Jan. 23 to Jan. 10 because VictoryLand requested an earlier date.
VictoryLand's casino reopened Dec. 18 after being closed two years because of the state's crackdown on gambling machines. State Attorney General Luther Strange is opposing a license because he contends VictoryLand is operating illegal machines. VictoryLand attorney Joe Espy says they are legal electronic bingo.

Oil spill requires 'combat general'
We need a combat general to lead the defense against the oil invasion. A combat general is used to fighting emergencies by quickly assessing the threat, obtaining relevant information and deciding on appropriate defensive strategy.
Here are some questions he might ask:
1) Why disperse the enemy — that is, why turn the viscous oil mass into countless little balls and slime? The combat general might think that dispersed oil is harder to track and contain, and that its invidious nature threatens a much wider coastal area.
2) Why not attack the enemy in the Gulf as it advances, instead of waiting until it is at our shores?
Following basic military principles, the combat general might consider strategies of containment and destruction at sea, particularly if the oil remains clumped together. He might consider suction and siphoning, more burning and bigger barriers.
3) Why rely almost entirely on boom?
The combat general might realize that boom can protect some areas but that it is sadly insufficient in others due to its inadequate depth and its vulnerability to currents and weather.
The oil invasion is a warlike threat. Somewhere in American ingenuity there are brains and equipment to win this war, but so far we have been stymied by slow response, lack of leadership and questionable decisions. We need someone who can take charge and fight for us.
Think before you speak of boycotts
It seems to me that a lot of our citizens have no clue about how things work. All I see on the news is people saying things like "BP is a liar" and "Let's boycott BP."
You should think before you speak.
Let's say you boycott BP gas stations. The only people you will be hurting are our friends and neighbors; they're the ones who own these stations and are employed by these stations.
So go ahead and help them lose their jobs. Will that make you feel better about yourself?
Also, the oil spill was an accident. This was not done intentionally. They are doing the best they can with what they've got to work with.
It probably wouldn't have gone on this long if it had been a shallow-water drilling rig.
Why wasn't it? Because the same people who are wanting to boycott BP are probably the same type of people who didn't want a drilling rig too close to the shoreline so they wouldn't have to see it.
Therefore the oil companies have had to go to deep water to drill, and now we are in this predicament.
I suggest people use their energy more wisely and find out what they can do to help those who are truly suffering from this disaster instead of standing around with a sign.
Look ahead toward economic recovery
The oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico has created a disaster of unprecedented proportions, both environmentally and economically. While the first priority must be to stop the flow of oil, it is not too early to plan for the area's economic recovery.
BP has promised to clean up the oil, and the federal government must hold the company to that promise. But as critical as the damage to the environment is, the longer-lasting damage to the region's economy is not something that the government can repair.
Even when the waters are reopened to fishing, the businesses that have survived the fishing ban will find it difficult to regain consumer confidence.
Unfortunately, the United States government is probably not in the market for fresh fish. The U.S. Air Force, however, is in the market for an aerial refueling tanker.
The political wrangling that has gone on over the past decade needs to be put aside. EADS, the contractor planning to build the tankers in Mobile, has estimated that 48,000 jobs would be created — with 7,000 of those in Alabama alone — if it were awarded the contract.
While it might take years for the tourism industry to recover from this oil spill, the development of new industry would go a long way in offsetting the damage to the local economies.
I urge people to write to their congressmen and ask them to support the Gulf Coast tanker bid.
In the Army, they used the F-word
I read with great interest the June 10 blue-ribbon letter ("Plenty of bombs during WWII, but they weren't F-bombs") in which the writer, an ex-Marine who fought on Okinawa with the 1st Marine Division in 1945, asserted that he "never heard the F-word."
I have no reason to doubt the truth of his statement.
It is not clear to me, however, to what word he referred. But on the basis of my limited knowledge of Marine Corps tradition and mythology, I expect that the word he had in mind was "fear," an emotion to which no self-respecting Marine would publicly admit.
On the other hand, beginning in December 1942, I served in the Army of the United States for 3,024 days, about evenly split between the U.S. and the European Theater of Operations, and I have a clear recollection of feeling, admitting and of frequently hearing "fear" from many mud-¤or snow-covered comrades.
There was also another "F-word," of Anglo-Saxon origin, which served as noun, verb, adverb, adjective and expletive which they used with such amazing frequency that they seemed to have embraced Anglo-Saxon as a second language.
But that, of course, was in a different part of the world and a different branch of the service.

Behind The Candelabra: Poodle In Liberace Biopic Steals Spotlight At Cannes
A white poodle with cataracts who portrayed Liberace's pampered pet in Steven Soderbergh's "Behind the Candelabra" nabbed the "Palm Dog" award during the Cannes film festival on Friday (May 24), stealing focus from star Michael Douglas.
Critics at the prestigious festival on the Mediterranean coast may have hailed Douglas for his performance as the flamboyant pianist, but it was the blind "Baby Boy" who walked away with a prize.
The "Palm Dog" award ceremony takes place each year on the sidelines of the official cinema showcase to honour the festival's most memorable canine performance.
The name is a play on the Palme d'Or, Cannes' top prize.
"Baby Boy" was not at Friday's ceremony to receive his award. Organizers did not disclose the reason for his absence, nor would they reveal his real name or age -- information that cinema stars are always anxious to protect.
Organiser Toby Rose said audiences were transfixed by the "cuddliness" of "Baby Boy", whose failing health in the movie brings together Liberace and his new young lover.
"The fact that we're giving an award to the dog that brought the two lads together, surely that says a lot about why he got the Palm Dog," Rose told Reuters.
Perhaps the most famous dog on celluloid in recent years is "Uggie," the Jack Russell terrier star of the 2011 French film "The Artist," who is now in retirement.
"In the last two or three years, you've seen a lot more films that have featured dogs and a lot more films that have featured dogs for the purposes of bringing in box office, and they certainly do that. And it's for sure Uggie has brought dogs right to the forefront," Rose said.
This year's slate of films to premiere at Cannes have featured an array of challenging dog roles.
A very small canine actor portrayed the role of Paris Hilton's Chihuahua in Sofia Coppola's "The Bling Ring," while a sweet-faced whippet featured in Alex van Warmerdam's "Borgman."
Underscoring the versatility of man's best friend, more dramatic roles were seen in Amat Escalante's "Heli," in which a dog protects a drugs cache, and Arnaud des Pallieres' "Michael Kohlhaas," in which two guard dogs maul a man.

Based on the assumption that computers and games are strongly associated, their technologies are expected to evolve in unison. The objective of this paper is to analyse the possibility of such coevolutionary existence between PC and PC game technologies.The paper commences by introducing theoretical concepts with respect to tcchnology. The theoretical component is followed by empirical investigation pertaining to PC and PC games. Exsting materials such as internet sources are used to gather data relating to technologies integrated in these products. Models establishecl in discussions of coevolutionary theory are in turn applied to this practical case study. Graphical representations are produced and discussed to determine the potential for coevolving associations.

Easy listening: I suppose that's one label you could apply — although as the latest album in Karl Jenkins's Adiemus series enters the marketplace with a foot-tapping smile, even that label doesn't do it full justice. Jenkins's music is so easy, indeed, that you could probably combine listening to it with preparing a tax return and hammering up bookshelves at the same time. It flows, it tingles, but never disturbs.
Nor do the Welsh composer's song lyrics require much understanding. As with its predecessors, Adiemus Colores laces its exotic orchestra with a choir singing Jenkins's invented language, where every word seems

This weekend Kiyo surprised me by taking me out for lunch to one of the restaurants on my Astoria to-do list: Tufino. Their pizza oven was hand-built in Naples using volcanic lava ash from Mt. Vesuvius, supposedly to bring "a unique and authentic flavor that is only found in Italy." Their pastas and fried appetizers sounded good but we decided to order two pizzas since that's what they're known for. The first pizza was Il Greco, which I'd read about on other blogs, I think due to the fact that it pays homage to the Greek neighborhood. The pie is made with fior di latte (mozzarella), fontina cheese, Kalamata olives, oregano, and fresh lemon juice. Our second pie (below) had fior di latte, local Italian sausage, baby arugula, fresh ricotta, Parmigiano Reggiano and basil.
The pizza dough is soft and chewy, just as it should be, and we dipped our crusts in spiced oil. The toppings were fresh and delicious on both pizzas. The unique Greek pie indeed tasted like Greek food, and was refreshing due to the herb and lemon combination. With the salty Kalamata olives, it was slightly addictive. Even though I could not taste the difference between this supposedly more "authentic" Neapolitan pie and others I've had that were equally good (I'm thinking of Milkflower in Astoria and V Lounge in Honolulu), the food was delicious and I would happily return.
Tufino Pizzeria Napoletana
Open: Monday – Friday 5:00 p.m. – 10:00 p.m., Saturday & Sunday noon – 10:00 p.m.

The original fab four are about to get a little love from a much newer quartet: EW has learned exclusively that Big Time Rush – the boy band behind Nickelodeon's hit comedy series of the same name – will sing four Beatles classics in their first TV movie, Big Time Movie, which they are currently shooting in Vancouver.
The Beatles songs they'll sing in the movie are "A Hard Day's Night," "Revolution," "We Can Work It Out," and "Help!"
"We are excited to help introduce the Beatles music to a younger generation," says band member Logan Henderson. "They were such amazing artists we feel so honored to have this opportunity."
"How do you not get excited about that?" creator/exec producer Scott Fellows tells EW. "We wanted to make sure we were respectful to the music and celebrate it and do something that, hopefully, Ringo [Starr] and Paul [McCartney] would appreciate."
As for plot, the movie finds the foursome – Kendall Schmidt, 20; Logan Henderson, 22; James Maslow, 21; and Carlos Pena, 22 – landing in London to kick off their world tour just as they get caught up in a James Bond-style mission to save the world. Specifically, their bags are switched at the airport and the boys are stuck with a device that could end civilization, if it got into the wrong hands. The movie, just like the series, is full of action and even includes a special agent named Penny Lane, in a nod to the Beatles. "We've got spy cars, we've got ninjas, we've got back flips, and we've got explosions," says Fellows. "It's really an homage to all those great spy films – but with music."
"We're calling this A Hard Day's Night meets Austin Powers," quips Marjorie Cohn, Nickelodeon's president of original programming. "We're doing cool and comedy and making it into a Big Time Rush caper."
The show Big Time Rush averages 4.1 million viewers a week, and it's launch drew 6.8 million viewers to Nickelodeon. Naturally, the upcoming movie – set to premiere in spring 2012 – will also include the title track from the forthcoming Big Time Rush album, Elevate, which hits stores Nov. 21.
For a taste of what's coming on the new album, give the first single, "Music Sounds Better With U," a whirl here:
