Share any unusual traditions or locations on campus
Best place to go eat has to be Narita's best food; they serve Korean and Japanese food.
Bang for the buck
Tuition is not that bad you can say but they help find a way to pay for you tuition.
What to do for fun
For fun you can join clubs or participate in activities.

My model for pattern
formation is based on cell acquiring positional identities and then interpreting
their positional values according to their genetic constitution and
developmental history. We have recently argued that diffusing morphogens cannot
reliable specify position. We still do not know how position is specified and
recorded. Another problem related to growth plates. Our limbs grow independently
for more than ten years, yet our limbs are reliably of similar length. I am
considering how this can occur. A major project is the fourth edition of

It won Oscars in 1974 for screenplay and "best achievement in sound" (mostly bloodcurdling screams and growls). Linda Blair is possessed by the devil, and her dithered mother, Ellen Burstyn, asks priest Max von Sydow to make a house call. You can tell how well that treatment worked since Richard Burton tries his hand in the driveling 1977 Exorcist II sequel (airing on Wednesday). CBS advises viewer discretion for both "due to the mature theme." That's one way to put it.

By Kyle Ford, U.S. Army Garrison-Hawaii Public AffairsMarch 6, 2009
SCHOFIELD BARRACKS, Hawaii - Army Hawaii welcomed a new concept in barracks management with a First Sergeants Barracks Initiative (FSBI) ceremony, here, Feb. 27.
A partnership between U.S. Army Garrison-Hawaii (USAG-HI) and Goodwill Contract Services, Hawaii, takes the burden of housing single Soldiers off commanders and first sergeants and allocates the duties to Army Hawaii Soldier Housing (ASH).
The new management service aims to provide outstanding service and convenience for all Soldiers living in single Soldier housing, and it's committed to providing safe and healthy living spaces for all Soldiers.
Currently, ASH is responsible for 6,500 barracks spaces across U.S. Army-Hawaii. The group provides management through Goodwill Contract Services, Hawaii. ASH will provide responsive action to lock-outs, maintenance and other room issues and will expedient in- and out-processing services.
"I remember when I first came in the Army," said Col. Matthew Margotta, commander, USAG-HI. "We had 12 to 18 guys in a dorm room and gang latrines."
All that has changed. Soldiers now get their own rooms and share a bathroom and a kitchenette.
Customer service is important to USAG-HI, said Ann O'Leary, Residential Communities Initiative project manager, USAG-HI. In order to provide that service to Soldiers, ASH provides 24-hour management offices near all barracks locations.
The 24-hour management offices ASH provides near all barracks locations allows senior leaders to focus on training rather than worry if their troops have a place to sleep.
"We used to have to run around looking for rooms when Soldiers came in," said Sgt. Maj. Giles Almeida, operations sergeant major, USAG-HI. "Now FSBI finds rooms for us."
While the ASH team provides management, commanders and first sergeants still own the buildings and are responsible for Soldiers' actions.
"It's a good idea," said Sgt. Maj. Keith Entwistle, rear headquarters sergeant major, 130th Engineer Brigade. "It takes the burden off commanders for upkeep of buildings, but we'll still be in there making sure the Soldiers are maintaining their spaces and are squared away."
With the FSBI, single Soldiers are getting even better service. Now when Soldiers arrive on post, they are provided a room with a bed that is made, and on the bed is a piece of chocolate and a note thanking the Soldier for their service.
"First sergeants are great, but I've never had one that did that for me," Margotta said, with a chuckle.
Not only is the initiative great for Soldiers, but senior enlisted are happy about the changes, too.
In the end, Soldiers are the biggest beneficiaries of the initiative.

After Strikforce's acquisition of Fedor Emelianenko in 2009, many MMA fans have been divided in their opinions regarding who has the best heavyweight roster.
After Fedor's shocking loss to Fabricio Werdum in 2010, it would appear that the UFC has the better heavyweight stable. However, I believe that the Strikeforce will have won a lot more fans over by the time its Grand Prix has come to an end.
Ladies and gentlemen, I now present you with the 10 reasons why this tournament will help Strikeforce make up ground against the UFC.

SAGINAW, MI — It has been one month since Angelica Olivarez was found dead inside her home at 1622 N. Bond on Saginaw's West Side.
Olivarez's 3-year-old son wandered outside the home April 15 and alerted a neighbor of his mother's body inside.
Since that time, police have named Olivarez's boyfriend and the father of her child, Michael D. Lawrence, as the main suspect in her homicide. Family members continue to post fliers online and throughout Saginaw, attempting to bring the young mother's killer to justice.
Lawrence also is wanted on charges related to the Aug. 29, 2012, Saginaw drive-by killing of 6-year-old Lay'la Jones.
Lawrence remains at large and is considered dangerous.
Anyone who spots him is asked to call 911.
Anyone with information about Lawrence's whereabouts may also contact the Saginaw Police Department at 989-759-1598 or Crime Stoppers at 1-800-422-JAIL.
Olivarez maintained an active Twitter account in the months before her death. She Tweeted about love for her son, household chores, missing her "someone special" and thoughts about her future career choices.
Below is a selection of Tweets by Olivarez, whose Twitter handle was KewiStrawberri, beginning days after the homicide of Lay'la Jones until the time of her death.

Jan Brewer, the governor of Arizona, just did what President Obama could not do. She just fired up black America and ensured that African Americans will vote in record numbers in this fall's presidential election.
Brewer met Obama on the tarmac as he got off Air Force One for a visit to Arizona this week. She became agitated when Obama chided her characterization of a meeting he had with her in 2010. So she pointed her finger in the president's face while giving him a piece of her mind.
Although Obama has downplayed the significance of Brewer's public display of disrespect, Brewer has issued a letter explaining how she came to point her finger during their meet and greet on the tarmac.
Throughout his administration, many in the black community grew soft in their support of Obama because it was believed he had not done enough to shed light on issues peculiar to African Americans.
The scholar Cornel West teamed with journalist Tavis Smiley and conducted a bus tour of America last year to point out the condition of black America. Their bus tour stops were often critical of Obama's handling of the economy and on social issues including housing and homelessness in America.
Although their attacks on the White House drew some critics, many in the black community applauded West and Smiley.
Also, there had always been a nagging question in black America that given the nature of Obama's heritage, he did not have a slave past; therefore he was "not black enough" and therefore unable to relate to the average African American.
Last year Obama addressed the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People (NAACP) and suggested to its members that it was time for black people to stop crying and to put on their marching shoes for the 2012 general election. He was largely criticized for these remarks and did not get the expected bounce of support from the black community.
But this week, when photographs of Brewer's pointed finger in the face of President Obama began to circulate around the Internet, the black community came alive. Entertainers, along with church and political leaders, are calling for an end to the disrespect shown to the 44th president.
Yesterday comedian Rickey Smiley, who has lampooned the president in the past, called upon all urban radio stations to rally their listeners to put an end to the disrespect and put on "those marching shoes."
In barber shops, beauty salons, commuter trains in Atlanta, the community is abuzz and all generations can be seen rising up to support Obama. The battle cry, to paraphrase the Tuskegee Airmen in the movie Red Tails: "To the last insult, to the last pointed finger, to the last ballot, we fight, we fight, we fight!"
One African American woman who did not want her identity disclosed in this report said, "It is axiomatic in the black community that you don't point your finger in a black person's face."
She went on to say that finger-pointing is tantamount to the ultimate disrespect you can show an individual. She then added, "...it's worst to us than giving a person the three-finger salute."
When the votes are counted in November, Obama would be wise to send a letter of thanks to Brewer.

— The concern I expressed ciated. I indicated in my commentary that Dr Kazanetz's computer exercise seemed a worthy one; it now seems even worthier.
The problem of identifying the "classical" school in Soviet psychiatry is a difficult one, in part because the Soviet era spans more than six decades, and in part because no single school or trend ever held total sway. Dr Kazanetz is certainly right in noting that the most eminent psychiatrists of the late tsarist and early Soviet periods stressed the need to diagnose schizophrenia within narrow boundaries, and that that view was so dominant that it should probably be considered to have been the classical one at that time. But, even then, there were dissonant voices. In addition to the psychiatrist I cited in my commentary, L. M. Rosenshtein, a number of others argued, in effect, for a vast broadening of the definition of schizophrenia to

I've got a line on a Rossi Model 68 for $179, but I don't know anything about these guns. Comes with a well worn leather holster. Seems to be in good shape. Any thoughts would be appreciated.

I've had one for years. Not up to a Smith but I'd not hesitate to trust my life to it. Goes bang every time.
September 1, 2007, 10:05 PM
I bought one about 10 years ago. My mistake was letting my wife see it. She has claimed it ever since, and it has served her well. It is compact and well balanced. I would buy another at the price you mentioned, if it wasn't beat all to hell.:evil:
September 2, 2007, 11:34 PM
I can remember when a local gunshop would put these on sale pretty often for $115 new. (early 80s)
They seem to be OK guns. I owned one several years ago along with a couple of 88s (the stainless version). I never shot them much. One of my 88s froze up on me. The hammer wouldn't cock and the cylinder wouldn't move. I oiled the heck out of it and finally got it working but it was still stiff. I sold it shortly after that happened.
For some reason, I don't see as many Rossi's around here as I used to. They used to be made in Brazil and imported by Interarms I believe. I think that has changed.
At $179, I don't think it's a steal but it's not bad. Personally, I would look for a used S&W for $100 more but I certainly can understand trying to save a buck.
September 3, 2007, 12:26 AM
The one I got had a huge rubberized grip that added a lot of bulk to the gun.
If yours has that, and you find it unpleasant, then track down a source for magna-style grips, or whatever else they call the type of grips that do not cover up backstrap or frontstrap.
I switched to a Barami hip-grip, which is a magna-type grip which has a small lip so that the revolver can be tucked into the belt or waistband, for carry without a holster. I tried it like that for a bit, and wasn't too displeased with that method of carry for sort trips or grab-n-go, etc.
Aside from that, I was decently happy with mine. Ended up selling it to another THR member, who still has it and enjoys it.
EDIT: for CA that seems a pretty fair price.
September 5, 2007, 06:43 PM
I've got a very nice one I bought in 1981 for my step dad and have inherited. It shoots very well, very accurate, is tight and perfectly timed. It has better fit and finish than the M88 I bought about 1990. I like it and will not sell or trade it not only because it's an accurate gun, but the sentimental value. It's a 3" gun.

My wife as carried a stainless, 2" barrel, square butt Rossi model 88 since
the fall of '94. Its her weapon of choice, and it performs flawlessly~! :D
May 10, 2008, 01:59 AM
Just picked one of these up myself. Gun is perfect It is my first snub nose revovler but man I have been impressed with its accuracy to about 10 yds. Beyond that I could probably do more damage by throwing it but hey it was not designed to be a target gun. The gun I have was imported by a company called interarms but they have been bought out by Braztech. Anyone happen to have an owners manual for one of these little jewels?
May 10, 2008, 10:17 AM
I paid $40 for one about 10 yrs ago, was missing a screw, metric, none readily available so I tapped it to standard and put a S&W screw in. Has fired probably 2000 rounds of 38 loaded with the old Remington 95 gr. sjhp over 4.0 gr. of bullseye. great little revolver.

Exactly. That said, if you have even medium-size boobs it can be uncomfortable (and is considered unprofessional) to go braless.

[QUOTE=Owly;411258]Bra wearing doesn't actually prevent long-term sagging (but helps disguise it).[/QUOTE]
Exactly. That said, if you have even medium-size boobs it can be uncomfortable (and is considered unprofessional) to go braless.
Needed or not, I am not giving up mine. I look better wearing a bra than going braless, and most of us who are any size at all do too.
The only time I go out in public sans bra is if I need to run out to the store on a Saturday morning and grab 1 item that I absolutely need. Otherwise the girls are covered.
[QUOTE=Digby;411222]Just pondering whether bra wearing is CW? Beyond corraling the jigglers for exercise, I wonder if there is any real difference in what happens to breasts of women in developed vs undeveloped cultures. Especially since wearing bras is fairly recent in historical terms.[/QUOTE]
Do you want your TITS hanging down below your belly button?
Gravity will make them sag & droop. Then you will have to toss them over your shoulders to walk around so you don't step on the poor things when you walk to the bathroom in the middle of the night.
Real life photos here:
I said this to my DH when we first met:
"They may look nice all trussed up babe, but when I let them out, they'll scare you to death!" ;)
I HAD to respond to this one. As one who is endowed with an ample bosom, unless I want to carry them around in a wheel barrow (d-cup), I need a bra. But I don't normally wear one around the house unless I'm exercising or having company.
[QUOTE=Owly;411317]There's no evidence that bra wearing prevents sagging, and there's some research to show that it may increase sag.
[url=http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/2092072]Breast form changes resulting from a certain brass... [J Hum Ergol (Tokyo). 1990] - PubMed result[/url][/QUOTE]
This seems to imply that the chest muscles get weaker when bras are worn. Isn't that a similar argument for not wearing conventional running shoes, that they don't let the foot/arch muscles exercise? I certainly see that for comfort wearing a bra is the way to go, but if it does weaken the chest muscles, then women should be more actively encouraged to work out those muscles to prevent what I suspect is pretty common sagging with age--or so I heard a plastic surgeon say on Dr.Radio. That's what got me wondering in the first place.
I work with a bunch of dudes. I'm wearing a bra. Now... if I decide to throw in a baggy sweatshirt to run to the grocery store, I'm not gonna bother.
Truthfully, I very much look forward to my vacation to Wickerman each summer where I can go bra-less (or clothes-less for the braver than I) for 5 days straight.
Having kids helps the girls to sag as well. Once you get to a certain cup size, sagging is going to happen. The only person in my family whose chest hasn't sagged is one of my sisters as she is an A cup. You get to C cups and beyond, yeah, you're going to sag. Push ups are one of the best exercises to slow or prevent the sag.
I don't "need" a bra, but I feel more comfortable wearing one.
[QUOTE=Alex Good;411322]To all women reading only this post, the consensus is that you should go bra-less, in a white t shirt on a rainy day.[/QUOTE]
that's what my husband keeps telling me LOL Actually, he keeps telling me our house is "shirt-optional" :rolleyes:
VFF's aren't primal. Vit D supplements aren't strictly primal. Meal replacement protein powders aren't primal. Heck. Clothes aren't primal either, but we wear them because of cultural conventions. I rather like my clothes, and my bra. I'm keepin' 'em.

Kimberly Weeks was a student at the University of Northern Colorado in 2006 when a man sexually assaulted her in her apartment. Looking back, she has no doubt that she would have been able to protect herself if she would have had a firearm.
With that in mind, she testified in March against a bill that would have banned concealed weapons on campuses, saying that carrying a firearm provides her and other women with a sense of security on campus. The bill died in the Senate, and the County Sheriffs of Colorado honored her last week for sharing her story and helping to stop the bill.
"We just thought it took so much courage to go down there and tell people what happened," said Weld County Sheriff John Cooke. "I just think she's a very brave lady who fought off adversity. She knew what she had to do, and she did it."
Weeks was a graduate student at UNC when legislators proposed a group of gun safety laws, including the one banning guns on campus, during the last session. Weeks said she first appeared on "The Glenn Beck Program" to voice her concerns over the bills, and she was glad to share her story in front of her state legislators.
"I kind of felt like I was up speaking on behalf of not just myself, but also for my family, for other women in the community, for other sex assault survivors who couldn't speak for themselves," Weeks said.
Just after Weeks and the others testified, the Senate committee voted initially in favor of the bill, a tough blow for her and the other women, Weeks said.
"It was a hard pill to swallow, but that made the end of the week that much better when they decided to kill it," she said.
The sheriffs' association honored Weeks at an annual banquet in Breckenridge. She said the award humbled her, and she's thankful for those who stood against the bill. She said she's ready to testify again if a similar bill arises in the future.
"I'm willing and passionate enough to keep going back," she said.
Weeks is now the adult diversion officer with the Weld County District Attorney's Office, overseeing defendants who are given an opportunity to complete the diversion program before facing charges.
District Attorney Ken Buck said he's known Weeks since his office prosecuted the man who assaulted her, and he's always been impressed by her courage. He said she's become an invaluable asset to his office as an employee.
"I really admire her strength," Buck said.

Firefox 19 Integrates PDF Viewer, Boosts HTML 5
Mozilla seems to have picked up the pace of iteration once again, though this particularly update actually has features of note. Whereas an integrated PDF is something Google Chrome also offers, Firefox 19 brings an interesting Retina-specific feature.
Firefox 19 (release notes)
— Built-in PDF viewer
— Canvas elements can export their content as an image blob using canvas.toBlob()
— Startup performance improvements (bugs 715402 and 756313)
— Debugger now supports pausing on exceptions and hiding non-enumerable properties
— Web Console CSS links now open in the Style Editor
— CSS @page is now supported
— CSS viewport-percentage length units implemented (vh, vw, vmin and vmax)
— Starting Firefox with -private flag incorrectly claims you are not in Private Browsing mode (802274)
— Plugins stop rendering when the top half of the plugin is scrolled off the top of the page, in HiDPI (Retina) mode
— Complete list of changes
One of the problems with Retina Macs is that graphics rendering can chew up a lot of resources and sometimes that rendering is poorly done, as well. Firefox 19 makes a play at ameliorating some of that.
Get your copy of Firefox 19. And, don't miss the just released Thunderbird 17.0.3, which contains a couple bug fixes…

Talking With...
Harsh Realm is "a virtual-reality game used to teach situational war strategy," a vaguely sinister Army colonel explained in the Oct. 8 premiere of this series. "Pardon me for asking, sir," said Lt. Thomas Hobbes (Scott Bairstow), "but what does that have to do with me?" My thought exactly. Harsh Realm looks to be capably acted and artfully creepy, but I'm not sure I care to get involved in another dark, paranoid drama from Chris Carter, creator of The X-Files and Millennium.
Hobbes (he just happens to bear the name of the 17th-century philosopher with the rather dim view of mankind) gets drafted into the game and finds himself cut off from the real world and his lovely fiancée Sophie (Samantha Mathis). Now, there's a female in the game who looks exactly like Sophie, but Hobbes is told she's a Virtual Character, or VC (note Vietnam allusion). Hobbes gets most of his information about Harsh Realm from Mike Pinocchio (D.B. Sweeney), a discourteous veteran combatant whose nose is a normal length but whose tongue may, for all I know, be forked.
"Harsh Realm is all that matters," Pinocchio declares. "Why, if it isn't real?" Hobbes rejoins. Bingo again, Lieutenant. I don't mind a show that makes me tense and depressed, but I'd rather do my suffering in the service of actual reality.
Bottom Line: Well done; no fun
CBS (Mondays, 8:30 p.m. ET)
Like ABC's Odd Man Out, this new sitcom concerns a poor guy who's outnumbered and outargued by the females in his house. Here the besieged male is not a teenager but a father of three, and he's played by British actor Alfred Molina (Boogie Nights), showing lots of teeth and talking like a regular American fella. Sharon Lawrence (NYPD Blue) has a large chip on her shoulder as his current wife, and Park Overall (Empty Nest) takes potshots as his ex. The comedy tends to be forced and obvious, but a few flavorful lines are granted two deserving veterans: Betty White (The Golden Girls, etc.) as Molina's verbally uninhibited mother and Stephen Root (NewsRadio) as his ribald buddy.
Bottom Line: Pretty routine
The WB (Wednesdays, 9 p.m. ET)
Show of the week
"Okay, I'm still confused," human high-schooler Liz (Shiri Appleby) says to alien classmate Max (Jason Behr) in episode two of this drama series. "If you really crash-landed in 1947, are you really 16 or are you like 52 in a 16-year-old's body?" Max, an ostensible earthling who confided his extraterrestrial origin to Liz in the Oct. 6 pilot, replies with some nonsense about emerging from an incubation pod in Roswell, N. Mex., in 1989. But here's all the explanation anyone needs: Teen shows are the rage this season; it's handy to combine elements of The X-Files and Buffy the Vampire Slayer, and hey, logic is irrelevant.
Though it seems a product of calculation more than inspiration, Roswell has appeal. There's a sweetness to the two-different-worlds romance of Liz and Max, and you'll appreciate the plight of Michael (Brendan Fehr), a less friendly teen alien stuck in a trailer park with a nasty human foster father. But Liz's voice-over diary entries are dispensable, and Majandra Delfino provides too little comic relief as Maria, her self-described "wacky friend."
Bottom Line: Contrived but intriguing
CBS (Fridays, 8:30 p.m. ET)
This labored new sitcom was originally titled Love or Money, as in "Ugh, I wouldn't watch that thing again for love or money." The ampersand can't hurt, but it doesn't add much to the quality of the show.
In the Oct. 8 pilot, heiress Allison (Paget Brewster) got frigid feet on her wedding day, locked herself in the bathroom of her family's sumptuous New York City apartment and made steamy whoopee with building superintendent Eamon (Brian Van Holt), an old flame who had entered through the window to liberate her. Since Allison's odd brother (John Livingston) calls their father (David Ogden Stiers) a "tyrannical billionaire...who can't express love," you can bet Daddy Warbucks ain't thrilled when Allison takes up with the unsuitably working-class hunk.
The only pleasure here is watching Stiers and Swoosie Kurtz (as his snooty but dizzy wife) go professionally through their paces, albeit in stereotypical roles. But in the second episode, we're expected to laugh when Mother says Allison had "sex with the super" and howl when Father recalls that she "decided to get jiggy with the super." They can reiterate the premise all they want; there's still nothing super about it.
Bottom Line: Not a lot to love
>Sunday, Oct. 17 SILK HOPE CBS (9 p.m. ET) It's planting season for Farrah Fawcett as she tries to save the family farm in a TV movie.
Monday, Oct. 18 PRACTICAL MAGIC HBO (8 p.m. ET) Nicole Kidman and Sandra Bullock make a pretty pair of potion-mixers in this 1998 comedy-drama.
Tuesday, Oct. 19 NOVA: THE KILLER'S TRAIL PBS (9 p.m. ET) The science series puts Sam Sheppard's controversial murder conviction under the microscope.

>Linda Dano
During her 17 years as romance novelist Felicia Gallant on NBC's Another World, daytime doyenne Linda Dano went from the sacred (posing as a nun) to the profane (going undercover as a prostitute) and even got trapped in a gorilla cage for one caper. Felicia's marital history was no less bizarre. "I was married six or seven times—I've lost count. Most of them died," says Dano, 56, who has been wed for 19 years offscreen to Frank Attardi, 65, an advertising exec with whom she lives in rural Connecticut.
World came to an end last spring, but thanks to ABC, the Emmy-winning Dano has found a new home—on four other soaps. She returned in June to One Life to Live as Rae Cummings, the role she first played in 1978-79. Rae, now a relationship counselor, will also pop up occasionally on Port Charles, All My Children and General Hospital to search for her deadbeat spouse. Some World fans may still be looking for Felicia. Years back, says Dano, "a guy on the street grabbed me and said, 'You didn't tell me you were leaving Bay City [the soap's fictional burg].' I said, 'No, it's a quick trip. I promise I'm going back this afternoon.' "

text: Boston Marathon bombing Survivor Of Boston Marathon Bombing Dies In Car Crash In Dubai By Bill Chappell • Mar 8, 2016 Nearly three years after she survived a serious injury in the Boston Marathon bombing, college student Victoria McGrath has died in Dubai, the victim of a car crash that also killed three others — including a classmate of McGrath's from Northeastern University. Both McGrath, 23, and her classmate Priscilla Perez Torres, 23, were set to graduate this spring. The close friends had been traveling together in Dubai. Announcing a "tragedy in our community," Northeastern University President Joseph Aoun released a statement about the pair's deaths: When A Bomb Goes Off During Your Study On Trauma: New UW Findings On PTSD By Gabriel Spitzer • Jul 18, 2014 Charles Krupa / AP Photo When a traumatic event happens, some people find ways to cope while others get caught in the grip of post-traumatic stress disorder. A new study led by a Seattle researcher and enabled by an unexpected disaster suggests a way we might be able to predict who's most likely to struggle. Washington's Own Bill Iffrig A Reluctant Hero Of Boston Marathon Bombing By Bellamy Pailthorp • Apr 21, 2014 Jessica Robinson An elderly man from Lake Stevens has become a reluctant symbol of resilience in the face of terrorism. An image of 79-year-old Bill Iffrig, blown off his feet in an orange singlet near the finish line of the Boston Marathon, went around the world. He was featured on the cover of Sports Illustrated, and interviewed for a 12-minute online documentary titled "The Finish Line." Seattle boosts police presence at Rock & Roll Marathon By Ashley Gross • Jun 21, 2013 JBLM PAO Seattle is stepping up its police presence for tomorrow's Rock and Roll Marathon in the wake of the Boston bombings two months ago. Twenty-thousand runners are expected along a course that snakes through downtown, south along Lake Washington and over to Mercer Island and back. Renee Witt is a Seattle Police Department detective. She says there will be bomb-sniffing dogs and police on bicycles. And the police department requests that spectators take certain precautions. Boston Marathon runner races again in Spokane By Jessica Robinson • May 5, 2013 Jessica Robinson Listen Listening... / 0:54 Three weeks after the Boston bombings, one of the iconic figures of that tragedy was racing again in Spokane. Bill Iffrig of Lake Stevens, Wash. joined more than 50,000 runners on Sunday for the Bloomsday Run. Police: 3 more in custody in marathon bombings By The Associated Press • May 1, 2013 Three more suspects were taken into custody in the Boston Marathon bombing case, including two college friends of Dzhokhar Tsarnaev who came to the U.S. from Kazakhstan, officials said Wednesday. The allegations against them were not immediately disclosed. Gov. Deval Patrick, who said he was briefed on the investigation, told reporters it's his understanding that the suspects had nothing to do with the bombings but helped the suspect after the fact. Mother of bombing suspects also in terror database By The Associated Press • Apr 26, 2013 Ilkham Katsuyev / Associated Press Two government officials tell The Associated Press that U.S. intelligence agencies added the Boston bombing suspects' mother to a federal terrorism database about 18 months before the attack. Officials say this was done after Russia contacted the CIA late in 2011 with concerns that the now-dead suspect, Tamerlan Tsarnaev, and his mother, Zubeidat Tsarnaeva, were religious militants about to travel to Russia. Bloomberg: Boston suspect said N.Y. was next target By The Associated Press • Apr 25, 2013 The Lowell Sun & Robin Young New York City officials say the Boston Marathon bombing suspects intended to blow up their remaining explosives in Times Square. Mayor Michael Bloomberg and Police Commissioner Raymond Kelly spoke at a briefing Thursday. Kelly says the two suspects had a pressure cooker bomb and five pipe bombs they wanted to set off. Marathon bombing suspect influenced by mysterious radical By The Associated Press • Apr 23, 2013 The Lowell Sun & Robin Young, File / AP Photo In the years before the Boston Marathon bombings, Tamerlan Tsarnaev fell under the influence of a new friend, a Muslim convert who steered the religiously apathetic young man toward a strict strain of Islam, family members said. Under the tutelage of a friend known to the Tsarnaev family only as Misha, Tamerlan gave up boxing and stopped studying music, his family said. He began opposing the wars in Afghanistan and Iraq. He turned to websites and literature claiming that the CIA was behind the terrorist attacks of Sept. 11, 2001, and Jews controlled the world. Officials: Marathon bombing suspect read Jihadist sites By The Associated Press • Apr 23, 2013 Robert F. Bukaty / Associated Press Boston Marathon bombing suspect Tamerlan Tsarnaev was an ardent reader of jihadist websites and extremist propaganda, U.S. officials said Tuesday, adding another piece to the body of evidence they say suggests the two brothers were motivated by an anti-American, radical version of Islam. As he lay in his hospital bed with a gunshot wound to the throat, Dzhokhar Tsarnaev, 19, was charged on Monday with carrying out the bombing with his older brother, who died last week in a gunbattle. Tsarnaev could get the death penalty. Marathon bombing suspect charged, religious motive seen By The Associated Press • Apr 22, 2013 The two brothers suspected of bombing the Boston Marathon appear to have been motivated by a radical brand of Islam but do not seem connected to any Muslim terrorist groups, U.S. officials said Monday after interrogating and charging Dzhokhar Tsarnaev with crimes that could bring the death penalty. Tsarnaev, 19, was charged in his hospital room, where he was in serious condition with a gunshot wound to the throat and other injuries suffered during his attempted getaway. His older brother, Tamerlan, 26, died Friday after a fierce gunbattle with police. Mass. gov: Video shows bomb suspect dodging blast By The Associated Press • Apr 21, 2013 Susan Walsh / Associated Press Surveillance video from the Boston Marathon attack shows one suspect dropping his backpack and calmly walking away from it before the bomb inside exploded, Massachusetts Gov. Deval Patrick said Sunday. The video clearly puts 19-year-old Dzhokhar Tsarnaev at the scene of the attack, Patrick said on NBC's "Meet the Press." Slain boy's family salutes bombing investigators By The Associated Press • Apr 19, 2013 The family of an 8-year-old boy killed in the Boston Marathon bombing is offering its thanks to the investigators who worked around the clock on the case and the civilians who offered tips and images that helped authorities zero in on two suspects. Martin Richard's family says it trusts that the justice system will now "do its job" after the arrest of 19-year-old suspect Dzhokhar Tsarnaev Friday night in the Boston suburb of Watertown. His brother and fellow suspect died in a shootout with police. Boston bomb suspect captured, brother killed By The Associated Press • Apr 19, 2013 A 19-year-old college student wanted in the Boston Marathon bombings was taken into custody Friday evening after a manhunt that left the city virtually paralyzed and his older brother and accomplice dead. Police announced via Twitter that Dzhokhar Tsarnaev was in custody. They later wrote, "CAPTURED!!! The hunt is over. The search is done. The terror is over. And justice has won. Suspect in custody." Bombing suspect hiding in boat stored in Mass. neighborhood By The Associated Press • Apr 19, 2013 Associated Press A law enforcement official says the suspect being hunted in the Boston Marathon bombing is in a boat stored in a Watertown, Mass., neighborhood. The official said he was briefed on the situation and spoke on condition of anonymity because he's not authorized to discuss it publicly. The official does not know if Dzhokhar Tsarnaev is dead or alive. Bombing suspect's uncle: 'If you're alive, turn yourself in' By KPLU News Staff • Apr 19, 2013 The uncle of a Boston Marathon bombing suspect is urging his nephew to turn himself in. Ruslan Tsarni of Montgomery Village, Md., said Friday that 19-year-old Dzhozkar Tsarnaev should turn himself in to police and ask for forgiveness. Officials say Tamerlan Tsarnaev, a 26-year-old who had been known to the FBI as Suspect No. 1, was killed overnight. Boston suspect's father: 'My son is a true angel' By The Associated Press • Apr 19, 2013 AP Photo/vk.com Tamerlan Tsarnaev practiced martial arts and boxing, even aspiring to fight on the U.S. Olympic team. Dzhozkar Tsarnaev had been on the wrestling team at a prestigious high school and won a scholarship from the city to pursue higher education. Neighbors recalled the ethnic Chechen brothers, living on a quiet street in Cambridge, Mass., riding bikes and skateboards. Two brothers, one dead, one alive and at large. After hours of only grainy images of two men in baseball caps to go on, a portrait gradually emerged Friday of the men suspected in the Boston Marathon bombing. The brothers, who came from a Russian region near Chechnya, lived together on Norfolk Street in Cambridge. They had been in the country for about a decade, according to an uncle, Ruslan Tsarni of Montgomery Village, Md. Boston bombing will not deter marathoners, sports-loving city By Kirsten Kendrick & Art Thiel • Apr 19, 2013 John Tlumacki / The Boston Globe/Getty Images "Of all the cities…and of all the sports." That's what KPLU sports commentator Art Thiel is saying about this week's deadly bombing at the Boston Marathon. Art says the attack will only strengthen the resolve of marathon runners and the sports-loving city. Listen Listening... / 3:44 Sports with Art Thiel weekly commentary Man witnesses marathon bombing, plant explosion By The Associated Press • Apr 18, 2013 Joe Berti / Associated Press People keep asking Joe Berti if he feels unlucky. A bomb exploded at the finish line of the Boston Marathon seconds after Berti finished the race. Two days later, he was in his home state of Texas when he saw a fertilizer plant explode near Waco. "I was just like, 'I can't believe this!'" said Berti, who said he had never witnessed an explosion before. Then he thought: "I just want to get out of here and get away from all these explosions." Lake Stevens runner: 'It was only 5 feet away from me' By The Associated Press • Apr 16, 2013 John Tlumacki / The Boston Globe A 78-year-old Lake Stevens man running his third Boston Marathon was near the finish line when he was knocked down by one of two bomb blasts and caught in a news photograph that quickly went viral. Bill Iffrig told The Herald of Everett that he heard a noise Monday and found himself on the ground. "It was only 5 feet away from me," he said. "It was really loud."

During the past four years, wildlife conservation groups have implemented Prairie Dog Day celebrations on Feb. 2 to coincide with their big cousin, the groundhog, and his famous weather prognostication day.
The celebrations are held in various New Mexico and Colorado locations, but environmentalists are anticipating the tradition to spread as other cities dedicated to the protection of vital prairie dog ecosystems hoping to join the fun.
According to WildEarth Guardians, the groundhog may predict the duration of winter, but the 'groundhogs' of the West, prairie dogs, foretell the future of a community of many wildlife critters dependent on prairie dogs for food and for the habitat they create.
Prairie dogs are smaller, more nimble and more social than groundhogs. They are known as keystone species due to their linchpin importance to Western grasslands across the Great Plains where their existence is vital for up to 100 other species, including the black-footed ferret, mountain plover, swift fox, ferruginous hawk and burrowing owl.
The current decline of prairie dog populations in the wild due to poisoning, shooting, disease and habitat destruction, has the species at a precarious 98 percent of its original population across 11 states of historic prairie dog range.
Prairie dogs may not predict the weather but their towns and colonies are becoming increasingly popular to tourists because they provide a unique wildlife viewing experience and are playful and entertaining to watch.
Wildlife conservationists are calling on ranchers to convert their prairie dog "sport hunting excursions" to a more humane and potentially lucrative wildlife tourism business.
In addition, Keystone Prairie Dogs is a conservation website that provides a fun combination of scientific information, resources, eBooks with humorous pictures, spoofs and political parodies and assorted gifts with custom prairie dog pictures.
Other organizations are jumping on the Punxsutawney Phil bandwagon, like a group in Snohomish County near Seattle, with their farcical Ground Frog Day.
In other groundhog news, Staten Island Chuck, a local New York groundhog residing at the Staten Island Zoo, is predicting the Super Bowl winner by his choice of food plates. Chuck predicted the 49ers will win tomorrow's game, after snatching up corn from a plate labeled "49ers," while ignoring corn on the plate labeled "Ravens."
But according to Phil's prediction this year -- because no shadow was present Saturday morning at Gobblers Knob Pennsylvania -- the country will enjoy an early spring instead of six more weeks of winter. Too bad Phil hasn't been clued in on climate change, but no worries since his accuracy record has been pretty dismal anyway.
Additional information on the plight of the prairie dog can be found at Humane Society Prairie Dog Coalition.
Jean Williams, environmental and political journalist; PrairieDogPress writer; Artistic Director, Keystone Prairie Dogs.***PrairieDogPress is the media channel for keystone-prairie-dogs.com, which is a fundraising website to support environmental groups for extraordinary efforts to protect Great Plains habitat and prairie dogs in the wild. PDP uses humorous images, social commentary and serious-minded political reports to challenge government on numerous levels, including accountability to the people, the protection of threatened species, the environment and Earth's natural resources.

Syracuse Crunch coach Ross Yates had a good news update on the unspecified injuries that kept forward Tom Sestito and Dan Fritsche out of the lineup against Binghamton on Sunday.
Yates said neither ailment appears to be as bad as originally thought possible. He said he will know more once he sees them skate in practice this week. The Crunch is off today and on Tuesday has an off-ice workout followed by an optional skate. The next regular full practice is Wednesday.
Of the two, Yates said Fritsche is the more likely to be available for this weekend's 3-in-3, although Sestito could be ready, too. Syracuse hosts Lowell on Friday, and Tom's brother, Tim, skates for the Devils.
Tom is 0-for-3 in chances to play against Tim the past two season. Tim played for Springfield last season, and Tom missed both those games with injuries. Tom also sat out the Crunch's meeting against Lowell earlier this year because of his hip ailment.

What are you most proud of? The way it turned out and how the colors blend so well. I gave this to a friend of my grandson's for Christmas one year
This is beautiful!! I love the use of color! :)
Thank You! :)
Thank you so much! :)
How do I figure out how much yarn to buy to make this into a bedspread for a twin size bed ?
Not sure how you would do that. I don't remember how much yarn I used in this but this one covers the top of a double bed. I used scraps I had for the daisys. I would think that a skein of each color and maybe 3 skeins of white would do it
I was browsing through Craftsy's website and came upon your work. I really love the way you use so many colors! Good for stashbusters so you can buy more yarn! =)
Thank you so much! Yes, my point exactly! lol

Sixdegrees has retained Pile and Co. here to help find its first agency of record.
The New York-based "Internet community" plans to spend $6-10 million on offline and online efforts, said representative Rebecca Tompkins.
Formed in 1997, Sixdegrees is looking for a shop to craft a branding and membership acquisition campaign for www.sixdegrees.com, a site supporting a broad range of e-commerce, auction and search capabilities, Tompkins said.
Consultants with Pile and Co. are in the process of forming criteria for participation and making initial contacts with agencies. Shops with an office in New York are strongly preferred, Tompkins said.
Semifinalists will be selected within three weeks, with a cut to finalists coming shortly thereafter. A final decision is slated for October, she said.
The winning shop will be asked to create and place a national campaign; in addition to crafting a strong brand identity, helping the client build on its nearly three million member base is paramount, Tompkins said. The offline portion of the effort will likely include TV and print ads, she added.
The Sixdegrees logo includes the tagline, "You'd be surprised who you know," though it is not clear if that positioning will be used in upcoming ads.
The privately held company competes with various vendors. These include online Yellow Page providers like PeopleSearch.com, where the search function is the main attraction, and member "communities" such as Amazon.com's PlanetAll, which offers a variety of services based on members' interests and buying habits.
With the Internet marketplace growing increasingly competitive, "It's time to aggressively brand ourselves. It's time to step up," hence the review, Tompkins said.
Membership in Sixdegrees is free. The company collects fees from advertiser-sponsored e-mail "updates," auctions and banner ads.

Periodically, the contemplations of the liberal effect a range of emotions and thoughts for me.
Be it President Jimmy Carter's infamous 1979 "malaise" speech that was intended to unburden Americans of their crisis of confidence, or John Kerry unable to decide if or when he was opposed to the Iraq War, liberalism often leaves one dazed, confused and wanting no more.
Enter Carole Lutness' column "Government's dead. Now what do we do? (Dec. 8)
In that column, Lutness appears as the reincarnation of Whittaker Chambers' myopic pessimism of 1954, that declared "Don't you see? The West is doomed, so that any effort to save it is correspondingly doomed to failure."
Charging that all levels of American government have lost their ability to "protect and enhance the common good, regulate and control excess and exploitation and provide public safety," Lutness' cynicism betrays her belief that the experiment called America has all but failed.
Incapable of discharging most — if not all — of its constitutional responsibilities, American government, she holds, will quickly give way to a country rife with unbridled chaos and excess.
Yet even more shocking than her vision of America's future is the rationale behind that vision.
According to Lutness — a Democrat — the masked avengers of the West's decline are the entrenched liberal powers in Sacramento, the new liberal hegemony in the White House and developers and other Santa Clarita Valley "big money."
According to her, this quite unholy trinity of the corporate assault on American government bears the guilt for the destiny that apparently awaits our nation.
Locally, Lutness posits, the SCV is enslaved by a tyrannical "one-party rule" bankrolled by "developers and other big money" with their "belief in the supernatural" who suppress any (free) speech that contradicts their machinations.
This bondage, apparently serving as the grassroots arm of the corporate rape of government, will create a valley where middle-class values and public interests are wholly subservient to — let's be frank for Lutness — the benevolence and narcissism of wealthy, aging, white Anglo-Saxon Protestants. That is to say, Republicans.
Apparently, America's decay into a modern-day court of Caligula has begun in the SCV.
Possibly unbeknownst to Lutness, she squarely laid the state's contribution to America's decline on her fellow liberals' shoulders. Sacramento's collapse of government is due to "large corporations" controlling the "budgetary/revenue process, thus starving essential services and education."
Apparently, the Speaker of the Assembly, the president pro-tem of the senate, the senate and assembly majority leaders, all legislative committee chairmen, etc. have been bought and paid for by those "large corporations."
Rather than a myth, union/corporate control of the left in Sacramento is a fact for Lutness.
That is the resistless logic of Lutness' claim, because in order to control the "budgetary/revenue process" you must first gain control of the flow of legislation to the floor, what bills get out of committee, debate on the floor, committee staffs assignments, etc., and liberals have held sway over those levers of power in a near uninterrupted fashion since 1970.
That is to say, only the said posts can wield those levers of power, and Democrats have largely maintained a tight grip on those posts.
So if Lutness, or any liberal, is dissatisfied with Sacramento's impact on California's public education system, then look no further than the legislation that has shaped it.
More often than not, that legislation has had a left-of-center tilt.
Unions and corporations can only do the logical thing in America's "unbridled capitalist system" and pad the pockets/campaign coffers of the entrenched liberal powers-that-be in Sacramento in order to achieve their ends.
Regarding Washington, President Barack Obama's near-waffling on his campaign promise to win the "necessary war" in Afghanistan before being true to his oath and committing to a troop surge and his handling matters including the economy and the health care debate, are the puppet's motions as "bankers and corporate elite" pull his strings, according to Lutness.
This Manchurian candidate of sorts, following her rationale, may well birth a nation where "90 percent of the population" is "peasants."
And his pulled strings regarding climate change and the environment could lead to energy being "rationed only to those who can afford it with the rest living in hovels and darkness."
Lutness' neo-McCarthy scare tactics have surprisingly enough found the right targets in Sacramento and Washington, yet betray a classic liberal reliance on big government rather than the American people.

MORRISON, Ill (KWQC) – "To hear that a city doesn't have animal ordinances seems a little surprising," said Pam Arndt, Director of the Scott County Human Society.
While it may be surprising, it's true. The City of Morrison has no ordinances capping the number of pets a resident can own. The city council began researching this topic after a resident brought it to their attention a few months back.
"After the meeting we looked into our code," said Barry Dykhuizen, City of Morrison Administrator. "Morrison's code now just prohibits cruelty and neglect, so we don't cap a specific number of pets."
It may not be a pressing matter, but rules like this can help protect animals in the longrun. Arndt said too many pets can be overwhelming.
"One it can be very expensive," Arndt said. "Two having multiple pets like that, cleaning for them, caring for them, can be a full time job."
But residents have mixed opinions as to wether or not the city should step in.
"Being a dog owner you know if you're able to take care of them and you want to have four or five dogs I think you should be allowed to have four or five dogs," Morrison resident, Brian Soesbe said.
"I mean you should be able to have your own pets, but too many, like I think it would just get overwhelming," Morrison resident Dylan Crawford said. "Because residents wouldn't think it would be O.K. to have like 16 of your cats running around."
The city said if they do decide to set down a limit, it would be to benefit law enforcement.
"If there is a specific number identified in the city code it would provide city officials some teeth in the ordinance if they were called to a home and there were an extraordinary number of pets," Dykhuizen said.
The City of Morrison said they are currently talking with their attorneys about what an ordinance like this would look like.
In Moline, a person can have up to four cats or dogs. And in un-incorporated Rock Island, pet owners can have as many pets as they can care for, but over four pets and they have to get a kennel license.
A decision to put a cap on the number of pets a resident can own won't be made for a few weeks.

Analysis: The trend line Obama was looking for
WASHINGTON -- September's lower unemployment rate breaks the 8 percent psychological and political barrier that has stubbornly dogged Barack Obama through his presidency, halting the kind of stagnant high joblessness that has weighed down past presidents seeking re-election in economically troubled times.
For Obama, the trend line now looks more like Ronald Reagan's in his successful re-election in 1984 than Jimmy Carter's in his losing effort in 1980.
The 0.3 percentage point drop to 7.8 percent unemployment in September comes at a welcome time for Obama, one month before Election Day and less than 36 hours after he delivered a lackluster debate performance that reinvigorated the campaign of Republican challenger Mitt Romney.
"The main effect of this particular number is going to be primarily political," said Bruce Bartlett, an economist in President George H.W. Bush's administration. "It gives Obama a talking point, something to get people's attention off his debate performance."
"As long as people are seeing improvement," Bartlett added, "at least some voters are going to say to themselves, 'Well, best not to switch horses in the middle of the stream.'"
A recent Associated Press-GfK poll found that the vast majority of voters already have settled on a candidate, but 17 percent of likely voters are considered persuadable -- either because they're undecided or showing soft support for Obama or Romney.
Roughly 56 percent of persuadables approve of the way Obama is handling his job as president, but fewer, 47 percent, approve of his handling of the economy.
Moreover, a Pew Research Center survey in September found only two issues rated as "very important" for more than 80 percent of voters: 87 percent rated the economy that way and 83 percent placed jobs in that category.
John Sides, a political scientist at George Washington University who has examined the intersection of economic data and politics, said Obama could benefit simply from the good media coverage the jobs numbers might get after a debate in which his performance was panned.
"It changes the story line, but that may be what affects voter behavior in the end," Sides said. "A small number of undecided voters may be sensitive to good news and bad news about the two candidates. In that way, the good economic news is helpful for Obama."
The new threshold, which drops unemployment to a level unseen since Obama took office in January 2009, carries more political than economic weight.
Jobs have been a central theme in this election. The words "job" and "jobs" were among the most frequently mentioned in Wednesday's debate in Denver, uttered at a rate of more than once every two minutes in a 90-minute showdown.
The jobs news also had the effect of overshadowing a new estimate that put the deficit for the just-completed 2012 budget year at $1.1 trillion, the fourth straight year of trillion-dollar deficits under Obama's tenure.

Many Strong Voices Develops Ecosystem-Based Adaptation Project
May 2013: Many Strong Voices (MSV) is developing a project on ecosystem-based adaptation (EbA) to climate change, which is a priority area for MSV in 2013. The aim of this project is to reduce vulnerability to climate change by supporting an EbA methodology that integrates scientific and local/traditional knowledge.
Case studies will be carried out in communities in Belize and Seychelles. Work carried out to date includes field visits in both countries to meet with potential partners and assess local conditions. This project seeks to formalize a methodology that combines evidence-based, scientific data with community knowledge and experiences, and empower communities to make informed choices on how to reduce vulnerability to climate change.
MSV was launched in 2005 to bring together the people of the Arctic and small island developing States (SIDS) to confront the challenge of climate change, as they share characteristics of vulnerability and resilience, and both of their environments are sensitive to the impacts of climate change. MSV helps bring coastal communities in these regions together to take collaborative action on climate change mitigation and adaptation at the local, national and international levels, and to share their stories and experiences with the world. Along with its engagement at international negotiations and outreach activities, such as the Portraits of Resilience photo project in high schools, MSV works directly with communities in the SIDS and Arctic to build local resilience through projects that address, inter alia, community-based relocation, sustainable energy and food security.
MSV is managed by the UN Environment Programme (UNEP) GRID-Arendal and the Center for International Climate and Environment Research - Oslo (CICERO). Partners include communities, organizations and governments in the Caribbean, Indian Ocean, South Pacific and Arctic.

Boiled crawdads, boiled shrimp, sausage wrapped shrimp, garlic shrimp, hot and sour soup (I avoided the tofu, so I avoided at least a few of the carbs and bad stuff), roast chicken, salmon I scraped the cheese mayo goop off, broccoli from broccoli and beef, and green beans. Yes, I'm over my carbs again, but I think I'm still below 40g carbs. I'm also high on protein and low on fat, but that's not as big a deal for one day as the carbs.

MIDLAND — The new Tata Consultancy Services building adjacent to the Dow Chemical Co. headquarters could feature state-of-the-art self-tinting windows, according to a report from Crain's Detroit Business.
While nothing is official, sources including the Michigan Building and Construction Trades Council, said the building will include 300 5-by-10-foot thermochromic windows, according to the report.
Crain's reports that Pleotint LLC in Ottawa County's Olive Township, is the company behind the intricate self-tinting windows, which allow for a more energy-efficient building. According to the report, when cloudy, the windows allow 50 percent of the sunlight in, but in bright sunlight, reduce that to 10 percent or less.
Dow Chemical officials aren't commenting on the specifics of the program.
"What I know is that they're doing everything possible to implement the best green technologies," said Greg Baldwin, a Dow Chemical spokesperson. "They're certainly after the highest technology, interms of environmental standards.
"As for specifics, I'm not sure what that is right now."
Read the full report, here.
Dow has been working with TCS since 2006. This partnership allows Dow Business Services to source work in key geographies, enabling around-the-clock service, 7 days a week, without the constraints of local time zones.
The facility is expected to house up to 1,250 employees once completed. Tata Consultancy, which already operates an office in Troy, also plans to use the center to expand its service offering beyond Dow to other companies in mid-Michigan.

The project was added to your Craft Projects.
Click here to view your Craft Projects.
An oversized, relaxed fit makes this a very comfortable poncho from Authentic Knitting Board. The fast and design design makes it perfect for beginning knitters.
Size: sml/m or (lg-X-lg)
Stitches: Stockinette and Rib
- Yarn: Yarn used is JAEGER Luxury Tweed 50 gm skeins, Yarn needed=5 (6) skeins or 900 (1050) yards.
- 28" knitting board with spacers set at 1" (4" bolts)
- Knit hook
- Crochet hook
- Large sewing needle
Gauge: 2 st=1" 3 rows=1"
- Shoulder to Hemline will be aprox 22" (25").
- Hemline will be aprox. 40" (46") across the front of finished poncho.
Front and Back of Poncho are the same. (Knit 2)
- Cast on 74 (84) stitches. This means one complete circular and hook over. Lay anchor yarn across stitches. This should be a contrasting color of yarn aprox 3 times the length of your cast on stitches. Let the ends of yarn dangle below the board at both ends. Tie on these 2 ends of yarn together under the board.
- Work in rib stitch for 12 (18) rows. (see instructions at end of pattern) Be sure to start each row of hooking at end of board opposite the yarn. This helps keep both edges of knitting even. Weave with a loose hand.
- Change to stockinette stitch. This is only a change of weaving pattern.
- Knit in stockinette stitch for 30 (40) rows.
- Bind off the board with crochet hook. Bind off at the cast on stitches edge.
- BIND OFF: Start at end opposite the yarn. Slip crochet hook into first 3 loops (st 1 front and back, st 2 front). Now pull the loop, closest to hook, thru the other 2. With only 1 loop on hook, pick up 2 more loops which will be st 2 back, and st 3 front. Pull loop closest to hook thru other 2. Now pick up next 2 loops and continue across the board until the piece is free of the board. Pull tail of yarn thru the last loop on hook. Do the same process to the stitches on the anchor yarn, and then, remove the anchor yarn from knitting.
- Now make a second piece for the poncho back.
Shoulder Strips.
- Knit (2) shoulder pieces. This poncho is designed to have a separate strip down the shoulder creating a seam on front and back of poncho. This will also add support to the knit as it flows from the shoulders. The neckline is formed between the shoulder strips by simply leaving the seams un-sewn.
- Cast on the same number of st for the shoulder strip as you did to cast on for the poncho front.
- Knit in Rib stitch for 6 (10) rows. Bind off. Make 2. Photo does not show this shoulder strip. If you are not using the shoulder strip, you would just sew the front of poncho to the back of poncho.
Sewing it Together:
- The rib edge of your pieces will be the bottom of the poncho. Sew shoulders to stockinette edges.
- Sew one long side of shoulder strip to front, long side of poncho . Do this with a whip stitch.
- Sew one long side of shoulder strip to back, long side of poncho.
- Lay front and back together on flat surface with rib edges as your hemline.
- Sew the side seams together from the hemline up to arm opening. Arm opening should be 10" (12)" from top of shoulder.
- Now sew the shoulder seams together leaving the head opening between the 2 strips.
- This opening can vary based on your preference between 12" to 15" or more.
- Not using the shoulder strips? Just sew the front to back leaving the head opening.
- Stockinette Stitch: Wrap yarn starting with needle 1, top board, down to needle 2 on bottom row. Weave back and forth across the 2 rows of needles skipping every other needle. At end, turn board around, and continue weaving, picking up the needles that were skipped the first pass. Work only on the needles that were used at cast on. Hook over all needles starting with the needles at end of board opposite the yarn attachment.
- Ribbing Stitch: Wrap yarn starting with needle 1, top board, down to needle 3 on bottom row. Weave back and forth across the 2 rows of needles skipping every other needle.
- Last 2 needles will be done consecutively. At end, turn board around, and continue weaving, picking up the needles that were skipped the first pass. Be sure to cover all needles with weaving. Now hook over all needles starting with the needles at end of board opposite the yarn attachment.

Motorcyclist dead, passenger flown to hospital, after Crawford County crash
CORRY -- A 49-year-old man is dead after his motorcycle collided with another vehicle in Bloomfield Township, Crawford County.

By Jennie
This past weekend I threw a 33rd birthday party for my husband and since his birthday was October 3rd, I made it into a three-themed shindig. I had grand plans to do a million things for this party but I ... didn't. I did rock my party menu though, so let's talk about that.
I got this awesome, delicious, and very, very potent recipe from the lovely AndreAnna and poured it into this inexpensive jug from World Market. (I think the jug was around $6 and I got loads of compliments on it.)
For the appetizers and snacks we had a delicious, yummy, devoured-too-soon corn dip courtesy of Kristabella. The recipe is as follows:
1 c. mayo
1/2 jalapeno pepper, chopped
1 c. shredded cheddar cheese
1 12 or 16 oz can of corn
1 c. chopped onion
Combine all ingredients in an oven proof dish and bake for 25 minutes at 350 F. It was that easy!
I also made this three-layer dip (even better the next day!), a three-cheese spread, and a friend brought Three Musketeers bars.
Then, dessert:
Tres leches cupcakes, which I heard were delicious but I didn't get to try one. (Also, confession: I didn't make the frosting, I used a canned butter cream I already had and sprinkled some shaved coconut on top.) There were also triple chocolate brownies.
So, there you have it!
