Family Meals: Easy chicken, pea and potato recipes for a quick dinnerBabble Editors
Our very own Family Kitchen blogger, Jenny Rosenstrach, and her friends Pilar Guzmán and Alanna Stang share their tips for taking three basic ingredients and turning them into healthy meals for your family. (They're sure to help you out during that next last-minute dinnertime crunch.)
As friends for more than a decade and fellow editors who launched Cookie, the lifestyle magazine for parents, we've watched each other's children go from breast-feeding to bike-riding.
The more we discussed our dinners, the more we realized how many of our own conversations were consumed by the stress and logistics, and (less often, perhaps) by the joy of feeding our respective broods. Why? Because whether we're in the make-it-from-scratch or the frozen-food camp, the pleasure of feeding our kids a delicious meal is often replaced by the business of getting the protein-veg-carb triumvirate dutifully down the hatch. Now that we're parents, those of us who once relished shopping for a single meal from four specialty markets register a wistful disconnect with our former, food-centric selves – and with this shift, we watch our yummy-mummy fantasy of serving our families a Moroccan stew turn into the reality of a not-so-yummy lunch lady serving up a waterlogged hot dog.
Some days you feel like Supermom, some days you are exhausted, some days you fully intend to make the chicken potpies:and never get around to picking up the chicken. Oh, well – there's always tomorrow.
So you have a:rotisserie chicken
Our mothers had Hamburger Helper; we have store-bought rotisserie chickens. No matter what the season, they should be strategy number one in the family-dinner playbook.
So you have:peas
When it comes to convenience in cooking, peas may be the gold standard. Seriously nutritious whether fresh or frozen, they keep in the freezer for months and cook up in minutes.
So you have:potatoes
Don't underestimate those Idahos and Yukons knocking around in your pantry. The fail-safe staples are packed with potassium and vitamin C – especially great news for parents whose toddlers are already on the all-white-foods diet.

I believe that Mark and Nick are referring to my FC7 layer model, which places Rights at layer 3. Mark in fact applied the term Rights to layer 3, which was so much better than what I had there before that I've forgotten it! ( Ref: http://iang.org/papers/fc7.html ) Rising to Nick's challenge, I think the Rights layer expresses something different to that which Nick is criticizing, and also to some extent that which Jed is trying to nail down. What the Rights layer attempts to do is to craft a technological framework that is ideally suited to the construction of a technical Rights system. For this reason it includes Caps, Nyms, ACLs, and noddy passwords, without prejudice to the poverty of some of these ideas. (Same thread as whether the definition of Caps should include bad design ideas - I vote yes on that one.) What the layer doesn't do is give you Rights. Better, it says to the next layer up, if you wanted to construct Rights, this is our best shot at giving you the tools to do that. But, the actual Rights - the notion of property or access or money - is crafted out of this by the higher layer(s) using the primitives in the Rights layer. To clarify, therefore, I am suggesting that Capabilities does not "give you Rights." It instead says, to do Rights, this is the best way to do them. We've given you the best framework, now each right in and of itself, and what you do with it, is up to you to create and use. Enjoy! This is an API model in a sense. The API doesn't give you the thing, but it makes it easy to construct, and indeed it is so tuned to that, it's known as the 'thing API.' > Furthermore, much important enforcement of rights can occur at a parallel or > lower layer (e.g. in cryptographic libraries, in multi-node institutions > such as secure property titles, and so on), or without capabilities entirely. Which all fits. The Rights layer uses the lower two layers to deliver its 'API'. Although to be fair, what you perceive as Rights comes at a much higher layer than what I termed Rights in the layered model, so in your terms, that layer is "technological rights, hence capabilities" and to get to your idea of rights, we'd have to go up and include governance (institutions, contracts, dispute resolution) and value (concepts of how each right responds in the market place). Perhaps, I'm guessing here. Like any model, if you get too close and stare too long, it disappears ;) It's meant to be a managerial and architectural broad brush framework to help get the big picture squared up, not a challenge to each of the layers or techniques themselves. >>I'd think an object has an *ability* to send and receive >>messages. I'm somewhat at a loss to see what calling >>these things 'rights' gives us. > > > There's a meta-goal here, that markm and I and presumably many > other people on this list share, of creating analogs of legal > rights online, then protecting these metaphorical rights with > computer protocols instead of traditional legal remedies. This is > the core of my smart contracts idea and markm's "computer security > as the future of law." Yes. That's what FC7 seeks to achieve, and that's what things that claim to be FC apps do achieve. Of course, whether there are better models is always open to question. ( Messages are a layer 2 device, demanded by the layer 3 concept known as Capabilities, in delivering its ideal of Rights. Calling messages as rights, or saying a subject (?) has a right to send a message brings the term into the wrong place, I feel. IMHO! ) ( is there a URL for markm's "computer security as the future of law." ?? ) iang -- News and views on what matters in finance+crypto: http://financialcryptography.com/

Donations helped pay for new K9 officer
A tip of the cap goes to everyone who contributed to obtaining a new police dog for Tiffin Police Department. The Fraternal Order of Police collected donations which helped pay for Andy, the new K9 officer.
The police dog's name is a nod to two law enforcement officers killed in the line of duty, State Highway Patrol Trooper Andrew Baldridge and Sandusky Police Officer Andrew Dunn.

The TX Gosling had its maiden flight today. It flew beautifully. Only 3 clicks of up elevator and it was trimmed out. Coasted fine and did some nice basic rolls and loops. So, just as you said it would, it flew friendly. Very nice design.
Thanks for all of your support Charles.

Hank, That's great news which just makes my day. Only three clicks of UP trim tells me that all surfaces were perfectly aligned and free of twists. Here's hoping for many more good flights!

hello all
does anyone know the advantages of the w shaped trailing edge seen on some delta UAVs?

thanks tonys.
i was wondering if there was some aerodynamic benefit affecting spanwise flow.
a forward swept TE tends to promote spanwise flow inward and that maybe the W TE somehow affected the 'hole' in the lift curve, Don mentioned, that are found in aft swept wings.
There are some stealth effects, but those tend to be secondary. A "W" trailing edge can be used to eliminate a rudder. Making a vertical surface unnecessary has a bigger effect on stealth properties. The steeply swept trailing edge control surfaces develop a sideways force component when deflected. By deflecting two of them (both swept to the same side) in one direction, and the other two in the other direction, it's possible to cancel out their pitch (elevator) forces while creating a net sideways (rudder) force. It's much less efficient than a conventional rudder, but more efficient than a split drag rudder on the wing tip, especially for a trimming input that has to be held continuously.
The middle plot tells me the airfoil is pretty smooth, but not yet working to its maximum at the angles shown. As it gets closer to stall, the concave lines aft of the maximum will get straighter (less curved), extending the low pressures on top over a longer portion of the chord, increasing lift, but bringing the airfoil closer to separation. The plot does indicate that the job of decelerating the flow from the high point to the trailing edge is fairly evenly distributed, no peaks or concentrated areas, which is good. However, the sudden drop just aft of the peak, followed by the long gradual recovery aft of there suggests there could be more potential from this section if it was working harder.
The program you used has a lot of good features, like the way it handles boundary layers. However, it does not model separated flows, such as laminar separation bubbles., which is a major limitation. As you get closer to stall, the results will be increasingly unreliable.
At the Reynolds numbers where we operate, there are no programs that will give you completely relliable, unambiguous results. Your ability and experience in interpreting the program results, "reading between the lines" if you will, is more important than the program results themselves. This is especially true for extremes of the flight envelope, stall in particular. No program is truly reliable near stall.
Hi Don! Thanks- I do get the plots of 'foils OK, in pic one, the pressure is that much differential ?!
I sure read that wrongly!
That would mean that the yellow 'bubble' would be the main separation @ LE, and that tall 'clear gradient' on the upper area(sloper's zone) would be just that- the vertical component?
On Pic 2, I guess I was expecting to see more of the 'common' "bell curve" type of view, and the sharp drop @ the final edge of the TE seemed drastic to me!
I guess it goes back to pilotage, compared to the 'incredible foil fight' , Huh!
Thanks again Don! johnny

Ok let me visualize it. Left swept forward elevon deflected down pushes air down and induces a roll to right and pushes air right and induces a yaw to right. It would be coupled to the swept back elevon on the right to have the same roll/yaw.
So it will work somewhat like an inverted V tail. Do I have it right?
Any beneficial effects to span wise flow with the W TE(with or without elevon)?

The optimum sweep should be about 45 degrees I would guess.
For stealth properties you want anything BUT 45 degrees. A pair of 45 degree angles adds up to 90 degrees, which will reflect any incident electromagnetic radiation exactly back to its source.
You get a similar aerodynamic effect from a swept-back vertical fin+rudder, which causes an "up" elevator effect every time you deflect rudder.
As far as effects on spanwise flow, that's not the reason for it. For that, by the time you get to the trailing edge, "the horse is already out of the barn", so generally not much sense in trying to close the barn door. To have much influence on spanwise flow, better begin at the leading edge, and even then it's an uphill battle. Vortilons (didn't they have some of those on the old "Babylon 5" TV show?), fences (Mig 15 for example), sawtooth leading edges (F8 Crusader), etc., are typical fixes.

Thanks don I was thinking along the lines of the angle(sweep) coupling the roll and yaw and minimizing adverse yaw, not stealth.
A V tail tries to roll the aircraft opposite the yaw, while the inverted V does the opposite. As I just found out from you the ailerons!elevons on the W TE does the same thing.
With the tailless W TE I was thinking the 45 degree may give equal doses of roll and yaw.
I think the sharply swept TE on the reverse delta affects span wise flow and even the forward taper of the TE on many airplanes was to get the root to stall first.
The roll effects are pretty minimal in the vast majority of cases, because the span is so much less than the wing span.
A conventional rudder will counteract adverse yaw much more efficiently. A properly implemented bell-shaped lift distribution (BSLD) will eliminate adverse yaw, and reduce induced drag in the process.
A small portion of the wing in the center is not going to have a lot of effect on the spanwise flow well outboard of there. Trying to get adequate roll control from that small portion in the center is going to be an exercize in futility.

DAY is a reminder of how many are affected by pandemic — and that more needs to be done, writes Alf James
World Aids Day is held on December 1 each year and is an opportunity for people across the globe to unite in the fight against HIV, show their support for people living with HIV and to commemorate people who have died from the disease. World Aids Day was the first global health day, which was first held in 1988.
Globally, an estimated 33.3-million people have HIV.
More than 25-million people between 1981 and 2007 have died from the virus, making it one of the most destructive pandemics in history.
Today, many scientific advances have been made in HIV treatment; there are laws to protect people living with HIV; and understanding has increased about the condition.
But despite this, many people do not know the facts about how to protect themselves and others from HIV, and stigma and discrimination remain a reality for many people living with HIV.
World Aids Day is important as it reminds the public and the government that HIV has not gone away — there is still a vital need to raise money, increase awareness, fight prejudice and improve education.
People can show their support for people living with HIV on World Aids Day by wearing a red ribbon, the international symbol of HIV awareness and support for those living with HIV. The red ribbon was the first ribbon symbol, inspiring later versions such as the pink ribbon for breast cancer awareness.
From 2011 to 2015 World Aids Day has the theme of "Getting to zero: Zero new HIV infections. Zero discrimination. Zero AIDS-related deaths".
The World Aids Campaign focus on zero AIDS-related deaths signifies a push towards greater access to treatment for all; a call for governments to act now.
The Joint United Nations Programme on HIV/AIDS has identified the following 10 goals related to HIV/AIDS for 2015:
• Sexual transmission of HIV reduced by half, including among young people, men who have sex with men and transmission in the context of sex work;
• Vertical transmission of HIV eliminated and AIDS-related maternal deaths reduced by half;
• All new HIV infections prevented among people who use drugs;
• Universal access to antiretroviral therapy for people living with HIV who are eligible for treatment;
• TB deaths among people living with HIV reduced by half;
• All people living with HIV and households affected by HIV are addressed in all national social protection strategies and have access to essential care and support;
• Countries with punitive laws and practices around HIV transmission, sex work, drug use or homosexuality that block effective responses reduced by half;
• HIV-related restrictions on entry, stay and residence eliminated in half of the countries that have such restrictions;
• HIV-specific needs of women and girls are addressed in at least half of all national HIV responses; and
• Zero tolerance for gender-based violence.

FORT WORTH (AP) - A single-engine plane with two people aboard made a safe belly landing Monday after having gear trouble and circling for more than two hours.
Both men, identified as an instructor and a student, flung open the doors of the Cessna 172 seconds after it came to a stop at Fort Worth Meacham International Airport.
They shook hands while walking away from the plane. There was no fire.
The plane was preparing to land at Addison Airport in suburban Dallas about 10 a.m. when an instrument panel showed that one of his three landing gears had not lowered and locked, said Alvin Devane, the Addison airport's tower chief.
Ground mechanics confirmed visually that one landing gear had not lowered, Devane said. So the pilot decided to circle near the field to try different methods of lowering the gear, he said.
The plane later flew on to its home base at the Fort Worth airport and landed at approximately 12:35 p.m.

quote: Oh and also, the number of pixels is absolutely irrelevant when comparing GPU's in terms of benchmarks, so that argument of yours is also a nonsense.
quote: Otherwise, you would end up with ridiculous conclusions like a far superior and faster GPU in every case being labelled as inferior, and we wouldn't want such delusion, would we?
quote: It's only non-relevant if the iPad3 will run at lower resolution, which it wont.
quote: This is similar to how the iPhone4 GPU benchmarked lower than the iPhone3GS. This was due to the screen resolution doubling (sound familiar?) while using the same exact GPU.
quote: So while the MP4 is certainly faster , the only thing that matters is real world use. And you have to take that higher resolution into account. You don't test at lower resolution to try to compare, you test exactly how the devices are meant to be used.
quote: And in the end, with the iPad3, you'll get a screen that is much higher resolution, looks better, and still has a graphics advantage over currently released Android tablets. I just think it's not going to be as rosy as Apple claims.
quote: Screen resolution doubled (4x more pixels). If the new improved GPU system (including memory, speed, etc) can't push all those pixels fast enough, the user experience is going to be compromised (eg, laggy operation). It doesn't matter if it's twice as fast at the same lower resolution, it only matters if it can handle the new higher resolution and provide the same or better experience. So in a nutshell, we absolutely want to see if the new GPU can't keep up. Users don't care about theoretical performance at lower resolution, they only care if their shiny new toy works better than their old one.
quote: Keep in mind that with GLBenchmark 2.0 we still cannot run at any resolution than native – in this case 800x480 (WVGA) – and the same applies for other devices in the suite, they're all at respective native resolutions.The reason for the iPhone 4 lagging iPhone 3GS is display resolution, which unfortunately right now we can't test at anything other than native.<\quote>
quote: they're all at respective native resolutions. GLBenchmark 3.0 will fix this somewhat with the ability to render into an off-screen buffer of arbitrary size.
quote: You don't understand how GPU's are benchmarked, then.
quote: I understand completely.
quote: You don't understand that people don't care about benchmarks on equal footing
quote: The only thing that matters is if the new part works better at the higher resolution.
quote: Your comment below about testing an engine on equal ground shows your complete lack of knowledge on the real world. The whole package matters, not trying to interpret the sum of it's components.

Word on the street going into the first of two Prince concerts at the Marquee Theatre on Tuesday, April 30, was that people should expect what drummer Hannah Ford described as "full-on rock-and-roll overload." And that Sabbathy reinvention of "Let's Go Crazy" making the rounds on the internet suggested what a night of Prince in full-on rock-and-roll mode might entail. But that was just a launching pad.
Imagine the legend's guitar-hero essence as filtered through "Maggot Brain," "Are You Experienced" and "Paranoid," playfully fronting an all-female rock-and-roll juggernaut, 3RDEYEGIRL, with all amps on 11.
It was heavier than that. And at times funkier.
It started, as it had to, with the speaker-shredding majesty of "Let's Go Crazy," its tempo slowed to a crawl that suggested the song had been purified not in the waters of Lake Minnetonka but the tar pits of La Brea. Prince made his entrance, backlit, arms out, strapped on his guitar and started riffing. This was funk as Sabbath would have done it, the audience shouting along to "oh no, let's go" on the chorus. Ida Nielsen took the spotlight for a fuzz-bass solo. Because why wouldn't "Let's Go Crazy" have a fuzz-bass solo? They worked in bits of Edgar Winter's "Frankenstein" because, again, why not? And Prince squeezed out the first of many awe-inspiring solos, an incendiary blues explosion of squealing, soulful passion.
As they rocked through "Endorphinmachine," Prince said he had a question for us. "You like rock and roll? Do you like rock and roll as much as I like you? Do you like your rock and roll funky?" When it sounds like that, hell yes, we do. And then, he squeezed out more amazing high notes on guitar.
Prince traded solos with second guitarist Donna Grantis on "Screwdriver," a new song accompanied by a lyric video, and "She's Always In My Hair," an epic rendition that came to a head through a call-and-response with the audience on the chorus hook, Prince soul-clapping and another searing blues-rock solo.
The gospel-flavored brilliance of "The Love We Make" was custom-made for testifying, which he did, preaching, "Sacred is the prayer that asks 4 nothing, oh/While seeking 2 give thanks 4 every breath we take." (And that spelling is Prince's, not mine.)
"Guitar" had a heavier stoner-rock vibe than the "Planet Earth" recording, his bandmates pulling back at one point while Prince tore it up on guitar. And "Bambi" was as welcome here as when they played it on the Jimmy Fallon show. Prince's falsetto brought just enough grit to the chorus and when it came time to solo, he played guitar between his legs and behind his head.
Prince closed the proper set with a rousing rendition of "Cause & Effect," preaching compassion in that soulful preacher voice that served him so well in the opening monologue on the "Purple Rain" soundtrack. "It's just one little word," he said. "But why don't we all sing it. There's a small group of us, but we can make a lot of noise."
The first encore began with a headbanging crawl through "I Could Never Take the Place of Your Man," a portrait in thick fuzz riffs topped by Prince's soulful vocals and Grantis coaxing squealing high notes from her amp on one of her best solos of the night. From there, they deconstructed the Shondells hit "Crimson & Clover" as a mash-up with the Troggs hit "Wild Thing," ending in a chant of "over and over" before again leaving the stage.
For the second encore, Prince welcomed a true funk legend, Larry Graham of Sly and the Family Stone and Graham Central Station, who wore a spectacular pimp hat, to the stage for a bass-popping blues and funk jam. Then, he sat down at the organ for a gospel-flavored "Purple Rain," skipping the song's iconic lead-guitar break and getting the audience to join him on those high-pitched oohs at the end. When it ended, he told us, "It's too good to leave it right there. We've got to do it one more time" before launching back into the song.
It would have been the perfect ending to a perfect night, but Prince had other plans, returning to DJ a medley of hits as a select group of audience members danced along on stage. It started strong with a minimalist reading of "When Doves Cry" (what, no keyboard hook?) and made its way through such classics as "Hot Thing," "Sign 'O' the Times," a chant of "Ain't no party like a purple party 'cause a purple party don't stop," "I Would Die 4 U," "Pop Life" and "Housequake." Again, it would have been the perfect ending to a perfect night, but Prince had other plans. Again.
"I wonder," he said, "can we get Larry Graham back out here?" And that led to a joyously funky finale of "Alphabet St.," a song that more than held its own in that lofty position.
Was it everything anyone could have asked for when they threw down $277 for a ticket? No. A lot of people would have asked for non-stop greatest hits played faithfully. But this was better. And those greatest hits still exist in amazingly faithful versions on the records.

PITTSBURGH - If you expected the Pittsburgh Pirates to come away from the non-waiver trading deadline with headline moves, you were probably disappointed on Wednesday.
The Pirates made several deals, but they didn't cause the ripple that the big names from high profile teams did.
Shane Victorino, Hunter Pence and Ryan Dempster were among the players on the move. None of them will be house hunting in Pittsburgh.
But the Pirates still improved their team without surrendering much from the major league roster, or the supply of prime minor league prospects.
The biggest loss is Brad Lincoln, who went to Toronto for Travis Snider, now the Pirates' regular right fielder. Lincoln hasn't succeeded as a starter, but he showed some promise as a short-burst reliever who might fit into a closer's role in the future.
That could be a factor if Joel Hanrahan isn't brought back next year.
But the Pirates feel like they've gotten a player who can handle a regular corner outfield spot for several years. Snider's had a spotty record in Toronto, but there's clearly some power potential.
The Pirates are taking a chance with Gaby Sanchez, who was acquired from Miami for Gorkys Hernandez. Sanchez is a former All-Star who has fallen on tough times this season.
The Pirates see him as a bounce-back candidate while sharing first base with Garrett Jones.
Righthander Chad Qualls helps fill Lincoln's spot in the bullpen. The cost to get him was Casey McGehee, who played poorly aside from a six-week stretch.
The player the Pirates could have really used was Victorino, who could set things up at the top of the order. General manager Neal Huntington said the Philadelphia Phillies' price was simply too high.
Huntington said the Phillies weren't asking for minor league stars, but wanted a player or players from the major league roster whom the Pirates would not deal. Victorino is a free agent at the end of the season, so a stay in Pittsburgh would have been short.
"We will not mortgage the future for a two-month rental," Huntington said.
The price was similarly steep for Pence, who could make $14 million next season. Huntington was not willing to give up a major league player for Pence, an above average player who is not at the elite level.
"This is about making the team better for 2012, but not losing sight of '13, '14 and beyond," Huntington said.
That's what the Pirates did at the deadline - made improvements without compromising their future.
It's hard to find fault with that.

Canonical, proving yet again that its idea of prime bed time reading is leafing through a thesaurus, has officially named Ubuntu 11.10 as 'Oneiric Ocelot'. Feature-wise, there is nothing new to report: 11.10 will introduce Qt support, and the Unity 2D window manager for low-power devices.
Mark Shuttleworth, the founder of Canonical, has a fantastic blog post that discusses how the developers of Ubuntu arrived at Oneiric Ocelot. Oddball Octopus was almost chosen, because it has been eight years since Ubuntu was first conceived. Osculant Orangutan was mooted too, due to the welcoming nature of the Ubuntu community.
The ocelot, which is a cute wild cat, was eventually chosen — apparently because it represents the "discipline" that will be needed to drive innovation in Ubuntu 11.10. Oneiric, if you're wondering (leave a comment if you've ever used 'oneiric' in conversation), means 'dreamy.'
In other news, Ubuntu 11.04 Natty Narwhal, which is due to be released in April, recently reached Alpha 3.
Ubuntu 11.10 will be called Oneiric Ocelot originally appeared on Download Squad on Wed, 09 Mar 2011 09:30:00 EST. Please see our terms for use of feeds.

A recent paper in the journal "Blood" from the Mayo myeloma group draws attention to the fact that some patients with MGUS—Monoclonal Gammopathy of Undetermined Significance—can have renal damage from the M-component, and even complete renal failure in some instances. They propose a new name for this subtype of patient: MGRS – Monoclonal Gammopathy of Renal Significance. This is certainly helpful and draws attention to a whole range of clinical problems that can emerge from the effects of the M-component in serum and/or urine produced in MGUS patients. Possible neuropathy is widely recognized, but there can also be a range of autoimmune disorders affecting muscle (myositis), skin (dermatitis), blood vessel (arteritis) and even blood components resulting in, for example, acquired hemophilia or Von Willebrand's bleeding disorders. So we need to be more aware of these clinical issues which are significant and not undetermined, according to Dr. Brian G.M. Durie, Chairman and Co-founder of the IMF. It may be we will end up with several new acronyms. If the acronym MGRS sticks, this may just be the beginning of a trend.

VANCOUVER, British Columbia – No gold for Lindsey Jacobellis this time, either.
No medal at all, in fact.
And once again, no one to blame but herself.
Looking to redeem herself after giving away a victory four years ago, Jacobellis' return trip to the Olympics was even worse. Early in her semifinal race on the snowboardcross course Tuesday, she lost her bearings on a jump, wobbled and skittered to try to regain her balance, but clipped the outside of a gate.
She raised her hands in disbelief, then clasped them over her helmet. The most dominant rider in the world for most of the last decade didn't even make the medal round.
"Lindsey just landed it off balance," U.S. coach Peter Foley said. "She changed her line to go up in the bank and gravity from the bank pushed her into the gate."
Eliminated, Jacobellis looped back onto the course to get down the hill. Riding alone, she grabbed the board with both hands – not only one, the way she did when she fell and blew her lead in 2006. She stuck the landing this time. Hard to send a message, though, when you're coming down in last place.
First place went to Canada's Maelle Ricker, who was in tight quarters with Jacobellis on the jump that sent Jacobellis out. Ricker easily defeated Deborah Anthonioz of France in the final. Olivia Nobs of Switzerland won the bronze.
Over at the curling venue, 11 matches were scheduled, two featuring the U.S. men and another with the women. The men lost their opener to Germany 7-5.
With three of the day's five medals already decided, the United States remained atop the leaderboard with eight, but France was closing in with seven. Switzerland has the most gold with three; Americans have won two.
The remaining two events were the women's 500 meters in speedskating and the women's luge.
In women's luge, Germany's Tatjana Huefner won the gold medal, the ninth for her country in 13 Olympic competitions.
Huefner finished four runs in 2 minutes, 46.52 seconds. Austria's Nina Reithmayer won the silver after Tuesday's final two runs, and Germany's Natalie Geisenberger took the bronze.
The win gave always-dominant Germany a sweep of singles luge gold, after Felix Loch won the men's event that finished Sunday.
Erin Hamlin of Remsen, N.Y. was the top American, finishing 16th. Megan Sweeney of Suffield, Conn., placed 22nd.
For Olympics-goers, the biggest news of the day might be that folks soon will be able to get a better look at the outdoor cauldron. Details will be released Wednesday, but it's clear that changes will be made to the big chain-link fence keeping everyone away.
"Perhaps we did underestimate the degree to which people would want to get close to it," VANOC spokeswoman Renee Smith-Valade said.
ALPINE DELAYS: Lindsey Vonn was as happy to see the snowstorm as any kid who gets a snow day home from school. No time on the slopes means more time to rest her bruised shin, which she especially needs after a bumpy training run Monday.
"She'll for sure be racing tomorrow," her husband, Thomas Vonn, told The Associated Press.
Vonn said his wife's shin was "definitely sore today, much more sore than it had been in a couple of days."
The women's event remains scheduled for Wednesday, so all she missed was more training, which she also could've skipped. But the wipeout means her foes can't gain an advantage by getting more familiar with the course.
The men's super-combined has been rescheduled for Sunday. The men's giant slalom was supposed to be Sunday has been shifted to next Tuesday, Feb. 23.
Dry weather is forecast for Wednesday, Thursday and Friday. Of the four Alpine races scheduled so far, only the men's downhill has been held.
BIATHLON: The biggest winner in Olympic biathlon history remains stuck on nine medals. It might've been gone up to 10, but Ole Einar Bjoerndalen went from being perfect in shooting to missing his last two pulls of the trigger in the men's 12.5-kilometer biathlon pursuit.
The Norwegian great started 17th and wound up seventh. Bjorn Ferry of Sweden won, and France's Vincent Jay added bronze to the gold he won in the 10K sprint.
The top American was Jeremy Teela at 24th; he started ninth.
Magdalena Neuner of Germany and Anastazia Kuzmina of Slovakia finished 1-2 in the women's 10-kilometer pursuit, a reversal of their finish in the 7.5-kilometer sprint. Sara Studebaker was the top American, finishing 46th.

How's Bradley Cooper dealing with his recent breakup with Renée Zellweger? By reuniting with his wolf pack! The actor grabbed dinner with funny pal – and Hangover costar – Zach Galifianakis at Kittichai during his recent visit to N.Y.C. The guys were joined by a female guest, and an onlooker tells us they looked just like "old friends having a nice, mellow dinner." Also at the restaurant that night: Tyra Banks, who was also having a subdued meal, which looked like a business dinner, at a further booth.
On-again couple Ryan Phillippe and Amanda Seyfried, enjoying oysters with a group of friends at new eatery Public Kitchen & Bar inside the Hollywood Roosevelt Hotel. "They were enjoying themselves and were cute with one another," an onlooker says of the two, who were seated at the head of their table of 10 friends.
Back in L.A. after spending time in the Big Apple with Jared Followill, Ashley Greene stopped into Trousdale Lounge with a group of friends after dining at Boa Steakhouse. Greene mostly hung out with a girlfriend, while the guys in her group acted like bodyguards. Though Ashley wasn't in full-on party mode – she wasn't dancing or being silly – she was laughing and chatting with her friends, an onlooker says.
Glee's Dianna Agron took in a set by Raphael Saadiq at a KCRW radio-sponsored show at the Music Box in Hollywood. The actress blended in with concertgoers, going seemingly unnoticed, as she chatted with her guy friends.
Janet Jackson brought her audience to tears during a recent tour stop at New York's Radio City Music Hall, as images of her and her late brother Michael flashed across the screen while she sang "Together Again." Jackson also belted out hits like "Nasty" and "Rhythm Nation" during the show. Meanwhile, boy band Mindless Behavior kicked off the show with hard thumping dance moves.

Totally Tory BurchTory Burch's classic and colorful designs appeal to women across generations
Tory Burch's classic and colorful designs appeal to women across generations. Divya Chowdary, buyer for saks.com, told Saks POV why she thinks the line is a must-have for fall.
Saks POV: How do you maintain personal style when wearing one designer head to toe?
Divya Chowdary: Pick out pieces that really speak to you. Choose items that you can wear head to toe or mix with your existing wardrobe. It's all about finding clothes you love, so gravitate towards those you do and they will naturally work with so many other things in your closet.
POV: Why do so many women identify with Tory's style?
D.C.: I think Tory is accessible and democratic, so a lot of people get her. You can be in your 20s or your 50s and look fabulous in her clothes, and I think that's why people really connect with her. And her collection is really yours to style the way you want.
POV: What are your favorite pieces for fall?
D.C: An important trend for fall is mixing graphic prints. She has some beautiful graphic patterns in her line that I love. When they're worn together right, it looks amazing.

US Treasury says gave O'Neill secret papers in error
WASHINGTON, Feb 6 (Reuters)
The feud between the Bush administration and its maverick former Treasury Secretary Paul O'Neill took another turn on Friday when the agency said it was at fault for giving him documents with classified information.
The Treasury Department had ordered a probe into how O'Neill a document marked "secret" was shown on the screen during a television interview broadcast last month in which he fiercely criticized his old boss President George W. Bush in
"The Treasury Department recognizes that those documents were not properly reviewed before their release," Treasury Secretary John Snow said in a letter sent on Friday to various committee leaders on Capitol Hill and obtained by Reuters.
O'Neill, who resigned under pressure in December 2002, likened Bush at cabinet meetings to "a blind man in a room full of deaf people" and criticized his approach to Iraq in a book written by former Wall Street Journal reporter Ron Suskind.
The Treasury Department's inspector general is probing how a cover sheet document marked "secret" appeared in a television interview with O'Neill on January 11, raising the question of whether O'Neill had improperly taken secret papers..
O'Neill denied he had taken secret documents. "I don't honestly think there is anything classified in those 19,000 sheets," O'Neill said in a televised interview.
A memorandum from the inspector general accompanying Snow's letter said the investigation had so far "determined that at least three documents containing information that should have been classified were released to former Secretary O'Neill. None of the documents were properly annotated with the required markings for classified information."
In addition, the memorandum said a classified report on Treasury's weakness in handling sensitive information was sent to Treasury in December 2003.
In his letter, Snow said a review by Treasury personnel had shown "a number" of documents given to O'Neill "contained classified information."
According to the book, O'Neill approached the department in March 2003 and asked for copies of "every document that had crossed his desk" while he had been in office. In the book, Suskind said,
"They stretch from memoranda to the President to hand-scribbled thank-you notes, from minutes of meetings to hundred-page reports."
On Thursday, the book's publisher, Simon and Schuster, posted key documents on the Internet, at http://thepriceofloyalty.ronsuskind.com.

• The potential effectiveness of imipramine hydrochloride (up to 5 mg/kg/d) was investigated in 53 prepubertal children suffering from major depressive disorder. Two complementary strategies were used simultaneously: (1) a five-week, doubleblind, placebo-controlled design (N = 38), and (2) a plasma level/clinical response study (N = 30). Fifteen of the 16 children randomly assigned to active drug in the first study also participated in the second. Subjects were assessed using the Schedule for Affective Disorders and Schizophrenia for School Age Children and diagnosed according to unmodified Research Diagnostic Criteria. Response rates in the doubleblind study were similar in both groups (imipramine, 56%; placebo, 68%). In the plasma level study, total maintenance plasma level (imipramine plus desipramine) was found to positively and linearly predict clinical response of the depressive syndrome (P<.003). No evidence of a curvilinear relationship was found. Depressive hallucinations during the episode negatively predicted clinical response (P<.05). Weight-corrected imipramine dosage did not predict either clinical response or plasma level in the individual subject. No predictors of response were found in the placebo group. These results suggest that the mean imipramine dosage was too low, and that future double-blind, placebo-controlled studies of imipramine in prepubertal major depression should include plasma level titration to above 150 ng/mL and an initial placebo washout period.

Rating: PG-13
Cast: Rachael Leigh Cook, Tara Reid, Rosario Dawson, Paulo Costanzo, Alan Cumming
Plot Summary: Josie (Cook) and her friends Melody (Reid) and Valerie (Dawson) form the unpopular band, The Pussycats. When Mega Records picks the group up after a major boy band dies, the girls' lives change forever as their music is used to sell items through subliminal messages.
Will Teens Like It? A
Here is a perfect movie type for the teen-age wasteland - trying to fit in by wearing and doing as everybody else does and being influenced negatively by the products we buy. Sound like high school? Yeah, I thought so. Here ya go, teens.
Greatest Strength: The nice retelling of the classic Archie comic strip and cartoon really strengthens this movie. You watch it once, and there is no way to catch everything. All the characters in play are just like the comic, giving performances worth more than pen and ink.
Greatest Weakness: The advertisements present almost make the movie seem like one big commercial. You can't help but notice stupid signs underwater, on buildings and even flashed during the film. I guess it gives the movie's theme an extra kick?
Is It Funny? B-
This film definitely has its moments. The beginning kind of flitters and fizzes as the boy band is introduced. Makes you feel like you are in the wrong theater. Then, as the girls reach stardom, the comedy takes on an odd kind of humor, similar to watching someone jam their toe into the baseboard.
How's The Acting? B+
Reid and Cook shine together as the ditz and the visionary. Reid actually fits the flower child left behind after the Vietnam war. Dawson gives a stellar performance as well, being the caring, wide-eyed band member.
Why Should Teens Spend Their Money? This is a cool teen movie, because it combines many features in a teen's life. Music, love and just plain trying to be cool. It makes you come out feeling like you don't need anybody's outlook to change who you are inside.
Profanity: Mild
Nudity: None
Violence: Mild
Final Grade: B+
If the advertisements and sappy subliminal message plot doesn't get to you, then I think that you can probably enjoy it. "Josie and the Pussycats" actually made me think for a moment about the music I listen to, and whether it has any messages hidden in it. Teens who need comedy and an odd date movie have a winner here.

Hang in there Lone Wolf;-), you're not alone. May the Grok be with you...
Hey primal followers! I'm new to the forum but been lingering around on Mark's daily apple for some time now. Decided to finally sign up as a member to receive some support about how to stick to a primal diet. Hope I can learn from all of you!
Your location: San Francisco
Age (If you want): 22
How Primal are you: yo yo primal... i'm trying to get there!
Do you consume dairy: nope
Do you drink coffee or tea: Never had coffee to be honest but i love my tea
Motivator for switching to Primal: I've been trying to find a diet that would help with my level of stress, belly fat, and insomnia.
Favorite exercise: Hiking!! I love climbing, walking and exercising around nature.
Favorite Primal food: Any kind of nut! It's like the perfect food, a nice blend of protein, carbs and fats.
Best part about being Primal: Feeling good about controlling my appetite. I used to constantly need snacks to keep me going but after going primal, I noticed my need for a snack pick me up has decreased.
Worst part about being Primal: Having to eat meat in front of my vegetarian friends. They are totally horrified and I sometimes feel like a lone wolf or a black sheep.

Welcome Kitana! Go easy on those nuts. I love 'em too but they are best eaten as a small snack or minor ingredient.

Welcome aboard, Kitana!
Don't let your veg*n friends shame you too much. Many animals died to prepare the food they eat as well - squirrels, mice, birds, rats, snakes - are all displaced and killed for fields of soy, wheat, and corn. When you eat pastured animals you could even argue you cause less death and destruction than they do. One cow can feed you for many, many months.

Northwest NEWS
ctober 16, 2000
Knut was born in Vessigebro, Sweden on Nov. 9, 1922.
He grew up on a working farm with 14 siblings. After serving in the Swedish army during W.W. II, Knut came to America in 1948 to fulfill his lifelong dream of being an entrepreneur.
He began his American journey in Ballard where he helped build the foundation for what is now the Husky Stadium.
After several landmark projects, Knut traveled to Alaska to work in the fishing industry until he met his future wife, Ida West, in 1962. Ida shared his passion for fishing in all seasons.
Knut and Ida had two children, Ralph and Peggy, and the family settled in Woodinville in 1971.
In 1977 Knut purchased the Gold Creek Trout Farm and worked tirelessly to make it the thriving business and landmark it is today in the Woodinville community.
In addition to work, Knut was an avid orienteerer who earned worldwide recognition, winning many national and international competitions.
Knut was also a lifelong member of the Masonic Lodge and the Swedish Club.
He was known for his quick wit, strength of character and strong work ethic. He was a survivor through and through and will surely be missed. Through all of Knut's endeavor's he made a lasting impression on all who crossed paths with him.
A memorial service will be held Oct. 18 at 2 p.m. at Purdy & Walters at Floral Hills, Lynnwood.
Knut is survived by his wife, Ida Olson; daughter and son-in-law, Peggy and Steve; son and daughter-in-law, Ralph and Laurie; and grandchildren, Travis, Jack, Ben and Taylor.
Remembrances can be made to N.W. Hospital Foundation, 1550 North 115th St. Seattle, WA 98133, Mail Stop W. 303, in memory of Knut Olson.

HAMILTON — The best part about growing pains, obviously, is the growth.
"In the beginning years, we were getting beat up," said Jon Pope, who has been with Nottingham High School's fledgling boys' lacrosse program since its inception. "But our program has really been improving. We're always getting better."
The Northstars take a 4-1 record into today's game against Hamilton West.
For his efforts in the great start to the season — including a historic win over Lawrence — Pope has been named as The Times' Hamilton Plus Male Athlete of the Week.
"Jon has been a four-year player for us that has been a huge part of our development from a JV team to a varsity program," said Nottingham coach Jerry Lynch. "Jon has continually given constant effort at practice and in games. He leads more by example rather than vocally. Jon will out-hustle almost every player on the field to put himself in a position to make plays."
Since a one-goal loss to George School in their season opener, the Northstars have reeled off four consecutive victories including the program's first-ever win over Lawrence.
"Lawrence was a growth game for us," Pope said. "We knew it was going to be tough but I thought we were going to pull through and win and we did. I know how badly our team wanted to win that game and it showed on the field."
Pope had three goals and an assist in the game for the Northstars who had to rally from a 3-0 first-quarter deficit.
"In previous seasons, Jon was seen more as the guy that helped make plays, but this season Jon has taken his game to another level and is making plays for himself and his teammates," Lynch said referring to Pope who has 16 goals and six assists in five games. "He is a very versatile player on offense and gives us opportunities to do different things from various offensive sets."
Pope has scored at least one goal in every game, including the overtime setback to George.
"We knew we could have a really good year coming in," Pope, a team captain, said.
"My freshman year we were a JV team and in my sophomore year we became a varsity program. We've been working hard to improve. I always push myself in practice. I try to set a good example on the field for the freshmen."
Pope is a three-sport athlete, who would like to continue playing lacrosse in college.
Tentative plans include attending Mercer County Community College and then transferring to a school such as Albright College.
His roles vary with his different teams.
"I'm a goalie for soccer, a forward in hockey and in lacrosse, now, attack," Pope said. "I do like all three sports.
"I hope to play lacrosse after I transfer from Mercer County Community College."
Lacrosse is the sport that he's had the biggest growth spurt in, along with his teammates.
"I started off as midfield. I changed to attack because I wasn't that good at defense," Pope said.
"Jon and many of our seniors are what made our program what it is today," Lynch said.
"Both Jon and our senior class will be greatly missed after this season but for now we have a lot more work to do and many more games to enjoy."

Dhaka: After a draw in rain-marred Chittagong Test, West Indies and Bangladesh would want to prove a point to each other and gain an upper hand by winning the second Test, which begins here from Saturday.
West Indies batsmen failed to make use of the starts they got in the first Test and would want to make amends by posting a big score on the board to put the hosts under pressure.
Skipper Darren Sammy top-scored with 58 for his maiden Test half-century, while veteran Shivnarine Chanderpaul (49), opener Kraigg Brathwaite (33) and Marlon Samuels (24) all got starts but failed to convert them into big knocks. That eventually led to Windies getting bowled out for 244, conceding a 106-run first innings lead after Bangladesh made 350/9 declared.
The concern was echoed by Sammy's post-match comments where he urged his batsmen to be "a bit more patient."
"As a batting group, we did not put up the first-innings score we hoped for and it's a matter of being a bit more patient when we're at the crease," Sammy had said then.
Spin is going to be the biggest challenges for the visitors as Bangladesh spinners claimed 11 of the 12 West Indies wickets to fall in the match. Debutant Elias Sunny was the star with a seven-wicket match haul while all-rounder Shakib Al Hasan bagged four.
Bangladesh would thus be in a buoyant mood as they were on top for most part of the first Test, in which two of the five days were washed out by rain.
Bangladesh: Mushfiqur Rahim (c/wk), Elias Sunny, Imrul Kayes, Naeem Islam, Nasir Hossain, Nazmul Hossain, Raqibul Hasan, Rubel Hossain, Shahadat Hossain, Shahriar Nafees, Shakib Al Hasan, Shuvagata Hom, Suhrawadi Shuvo, Tamim Iqbal.
West Indies: Darren Sammy (c), Carlton Baugh (wk), Devendra Bishoo, Kraigg Brathwaite, Darren Bravo, Shivnarine Chanderpaul, Fidel Edwards, Kirk Edwards, Kieran Powell, Denesh Ramdin (wk), Ravi Rampaul, Kemar Roach, Marlon Samuels, Shane Shillingford, Lendl Simmons

Screwdriver vs. power tool.
That's what led to Thursday's roughly 12-hour strike at the Convention Center, which ended with a one-year extension of the customer-satisfaction agreement between the Pennsylvania Convention Center Authority and the city's unions, and a one-year extension of collective bargaining agreements.
Under the settlement, the unions will receive a 2.5 percent pay increase for one year.
The walkout unleashed bad publicity at a time when city convention and hotel officials are struggling to lure large groups to the center, which was expanded at a cost of $786 million in taxpayer money to do just that.
It also came on the eve of a management company's taking over essential functions of the center, and as the Convention Center Authority board is negotiating new work rules with unions.

Q: My hamster is 1-year-old and his nails are going black. I am really worried about him. Do you know what is wrong with him? A: It is difficult to say without seeing your hamster if this is a cause for concern. If you are using a substrate that is colored or has colored ink (such as newspaper), this can discolor the nails of your hamster.
If you are certain there is not a color dye that is causing the problem, then I would worry about disease. Nail bed infections can cause what you are seeing. This can include both bacterial infections and fungal infections. Since both of these types of infections can be treated, visit a veterinarian who treats hamsters.
If this is an infection and it is left untreated, the infection can spread from the nails to the rest of the body.

UNIVERSITY PARK - It's hard to fault Bryce Jordan Center public address announcer Jeff Brown for saying, "Northwestern 50, Penn State 43" before a timeout midway through the second half.
The score at the time was actually 50-33.
The Nittany Lions have lost more than their share of blowouts over the years to the likes of Wisconsin, Michigan State and Ohio State, teams that routinely contend for Big Ten if not NCAA titles. But their 70-54 loss to Northwestern Thursday required a suspension of disbelief normally reserved for the movies.
The few thousand in attendance and those tuned to ESPNU who thought they might see a struggling Penn State team's best shot at a Big Ten win denied by layups that clanked off the rim and the 3-pointers that sailed over it.
"It was embarrassing, and that's the first time I've ever said that," said Penn State (8-7, 0-3) coach Pat Chambers, who apologized for keeping the media waiting for a postgame interview.
"I have to do a much better job of preparing my team and getting them ready to play. We didn't play with enthusiasm and energy and I have to look at myself in the mirror," Chambers said. "We were not ready to play and it's disappointing. That's on me. I take full responsibility."
A season-low 31 percent shooting and a 25-4 Northwestern run over 11 minutes late in the first half as the Lions missed 13 of 15 shots were to blame. Chambers repeated that the Nittany Lions are a "feel-good" team that plays well when shooting well, but poorly when shooting poorly.
Northwestern (10-6, 1-2) coach Bill Carmody was a little more diplomatic, saying he couldn't quite believe Penn State's luck, and thought when he looked at the tape he'd see shots that the Nittany Lions could have made.
Perhaps the most emblematic sequence came at the end of the first half, as Lion guard Nick Colella bobbled the ball trying to set up a long 3-pointer, only to recover and misfire an off-balance attempt. Donovan Jack pulled the offensive rebound, but Jared Swopshire swatted away his putback dunk at the buzzer.
"We hit shots and they missed some," Carmody said. "I liked that we didn't turn it over, and our defense was pretty good. They were taking it down to the basket, and for the most part I was pleased with that."
Chambers said the Lions played more first-half zone defense than normal because Northwestern went right at freshman 6-foot-7 forward Brandon Taylor to start the game, just as Indiana did Monday night. But Chambers thought that enabled Northwestern and its Princeton-style offense enough 3-point opportunities that opened Wildcats' lead.
"(Taylor) has just got to continue to get better," Chambers said. "Everyone is picking on him."
Taylor finished with four fouls and two points in 20 minutes. D.J. Newbill led the Lions with 20 points, but shot 6-for-19. Jermaine Marshall scored 13 points on 4-for-12 shooting. As a team, Penn State had 11 turnovers but just 7 assists. Ross Travis led Penn State with nine rebounds, but limped off the court late in the second half after sliding his right ankle on an inbounds pass.
"You know, D.J. and Jermaine chose to drive it, and they worked a little but you can't wait 20 minutes to get the engine going," Chambers said.
Dave Sobolewski's 18-point night led four Northwestern double-digit scorers.
This was just the Wildcats' fourth victory at Penn State. Now Penn State will head to Purdue Sunday before hosting Michigan State and Nebraska later in the week.
