It can be surprising how much we learn from people when we stop doing all the talking and just listen.
That's essentially what we do at SBF when we conduct surveys. We ask questions and allow people to respond, candidly, so that they're heard.
In this issue you'll find the results of our fifth annual Driver Survey. It says, for the most part, that drivers are satisfied with their jobs. Only a few report dissatisfaction.
This may sound like good news to some, but many others know the real deal. It's not by coincidence that driver recruitment and retention are two of the top challenges facing school bus fleet operations today.
Something's amiss.
Our survey said ...
Surveys allow you to get to the bottom of things. Ask the right questions and, generally, you'll get the responses you seek. The trick is understanding the responses. What are your drivers telling us?
For one thing, some weren't attracted to the pay when they took the job. More than 50 percent of respondents chose to drive school buses because of the conveniences. Mom and dad drivers can work around their children's schedules while forgoing the expense of daycare.
Others, such as those on Social Security, took the job for supplemental pay. For some college students, driving a school bus helps pay for tuition.
Where am I going with this? Let me tell you.
If scheduling is the primary factor keeping some of your best drivers around, then you need to consider ways to retain them when those conveniences are no longer required. Children will grow up, and college students will graduate.
Besides, the economy is getting better, and the experience drivers gain behind the wheel of a school bus is transferable to other operations. Some respondents already had experience driving commercial vehicles (see chart on pg. 23).
Our survey said some other interesting things about drivers. Dealing with student behavior, administrators, parents and tough policies aren't the only things that make returning to work the next morning difficult.
Factors outside the bus add to the chaos, e.g., motorists using cell phones, road hazards and road hogs who won't allow drivers space to maneuver.
Respondents said stop-arm violators (35.7 percent) and aggressive motorists (21.9 percent) are their biggest challenges outside the bus. The list builds from there. But what can you do?
Try a little tenderness
We asked drivers what would make their jobs more satisfying and gave them a list of options. Not surprisingly, almost half said better pay or benefits.
But we thought it negligent to just ask questions we already had answers to, so we went deeper still.
Drivers know the economy, and they know the budget crises experienced by most public school districts. They know a fat raise won't be coming anytime soon, so they asked for other, less tangible things. About 16 percent asked for more feedback and/or recognition. These things don't replace pay and benefits, but they are excellent concessions.
Some chose the "other" category so they could elaborate on what would make their jobs better.
Drivers want to know why policies for full-time drivers are different from those for other full-time district employees? What about self-defense training or more power to discipline unruly students? And how about cracking down on abuse of sick time, which burdens the remaining drivers? What about giving drivers the benefit of the doubt more often? Can you try better communication and follow through?
And the humdinger of them all: Can administrators just come along for a ride one day? Yes, your drivers have something they want to show you.

Two quick, random, kinda interesting things to check out:
-- Ever wondered what kind of house Nick Saban lived in when he coached at LSU? Me neither, but maybe some Tigaahhs fans have. Here, for charity, you can tour the house he owned when he was LSU's coach. How strange is that?
To be fair, I did write about Saban purchasing a $2.9 million house in T-Town. So this isn't totally crazy.
-- Two Alabama linemen were named today to the Outland Trophy watch list. Center Antoine Caldwell and left tackle Andre Smith were honored by the Football Writers Association of America. Both of these guys could have a good shot at winning this.
Yesterday, Saban said about Smith, "The sky is the limit in terms of what kind of player he can potentially be."

Temperatures will peak at 94 degrees in the Santa Clarita Valley this weekend and reach triple digits by early next week, ending a holiday week of mild weather, a National Weather Service spokesman said.
"Right now we've had a low-pressure system from the coastal regions," weather service spokesman Stewart Seto said Monday. "A high-pressure system moving in will remove cloud cover in the Santa Clarita region."
Saturday temperatures will reach 91 degrees, with a low of 59 degrees, and Sunday will see highs of 94 degrees, with a low of 61 degrees, the weather service forecast.
Then the heat is on, at least until Wednesday.
The National Weather Service issued a heat statement for next week, warning high temperatures and low humidity could increase fire danger.
Temperatures are expected to reach 99 degrees on Monday and 101 degrees on Tuesday, forecasters said.
Seto said SCV residents should drink more water on warmer days and stay inside during the hottest part of the afternoon.

|Here are some details about my project:
|Classic, Traditional
What are you most proud of? This quilt means alot to me because it was a heafty challenge since I haven't sewn much of the last 20+ years. HOWEVER, this quilt is very easy to sew. I keep hearing fears of Y seams, but I didn't have any problems. It turned out beautiful.
What advice would you give someone starting this project? My advise: Your star quilt can have different number of points (7 rows or more for each starpoint section) Select your color sceme. Precut all of your diamonds (2x2inch). Lay them out to see the effect before you start to sew. Start at the tip of the starpoint and chain piece down ward toward the sidepoint of the big diamond, then go back to the top of the starpoint and grab the second row and chainpiece down...repeat until you get all of your starpoint section sewn.

New students, fresh perspectives
The varied stories and aspirations of the newest MTSO students reflect the evolving role of theological education in preparing Christian leaders. Some feel the pull of traditional pulpit ministry, while others seek to make a difference beyond the church walls. Below are reflections of six incoming students.
Bhoke Mukami
Working to enhance the nonprofit she founded
Mukami earned degrees from universities in Tanzania and the United Kingdom and embarked on a successful career in investment banking. Yet she found herself continuing to reflect on powerful experiences in Tanzania.
As a volunteer with local children, Mukami was often told difficult stories of abuse and molestation: "I came to know that some of the girls had been sexually violated. It was really hard to comprehend and digest. It was during this time that I made a commitment to empower both boys and girls."
In December 2013, Mukami founded the nonprofit organization Shield Our Watoto, employing a Kiswahili word that means children. SOW works to make Tanzanian children safer by equipping both children and adults with the tools and information to confront the silent but pervasive issue of sexual abuse. Now, with the help of the Flo K. Gault Scholarship, Mukami is seeking a Master of Arts in Counseling Ministries degree to enhance her work.
"My dream is to break the silence surrounding this issue by promoting dialogues, raising awareness and encouraging communication. SOW empowers children and adults through educational programs on how to prevent, recognize and react responsibly to childhood sexual abuse," she said.
"I know with a MACM degree, I will be better prepared to lead SOW and fulfill my lifelong vision to work with people facing some of the most difficult issues to solve."
Kevin Michael Rodriquez
A pursuit of ministry abandoned and rekindled
Discouraged by the changes in his childhood church and a faith-challenging first year at a conservative Southern college, Rodriquez abandoned early plans to pursue ministry. He returned to his home state to enroll in California State University Monterey Bay. After graduating magna cum laude, Rodriquez began a career as a mentor and tutor with the Community Partnership for Youth.
"This is where I had a true encounter with the living God," he said, "through people who rejected xenophobia, islamophobia, homophobia and misogyny in favor of justice rooted in loving kindness."
The experience rekindled Rodriquez's interest in ministry. A Harding Scholarship recipient, he will pursue a Master of Divinity degree at MTSO.
"I know in my heart that I want to serve the impoverished as well as unhoused communities," he said. "I feel a strong calling toward ministering to those who so often go unnoticed. As a person of color, I have a strong desire to help bridge the chasm of racial understanding."
"While I am not certain any person can ever be fully and truly prepared to delve into the most profound and longing questions of the human heart, mind and spirit, I do know that I have waited long enough to try."
Alexandra Petrey
Called to be a deacon engaged in counseling
After graduating from Ohio Northern University with a degree in youth ministries, Petrey earned a Master of Divinity degree from Garrett-Evangelical Theological Seminary. While at Garrett, she immersed herself in Chicago's downtown, serving in congregational children's ministry. She also interned with a nonprofit in Detroit that provides transitional housing for homeless families.
"I felt myself torn between the needs of the local church for faith formation and the needs in the greater community for justice," she said. "I enjoyed teaching and enjoyed working in the larger community. At the same time, I felt the need for strong elder leadership and the strong encouragement of other clergy to become an elder, but I felt within my heart the call for deacon."
To merge her interests, Petrey, a commissioned provisional deacon in the West Ohio Conference, is seeking a Master of Arts in Counseling Ministries degree, aided by a Burton D. Morgan Foundation Scholarship.
"As a licensed social worker or mental-health counselor," she said, "I am able to provide mental-health counseling and advocacy for justice issues beyond the life of the local congregation for the greater good of our communities. I hope to make poverty and mental illness both areas where our churches feel more equipped, and where disciples are able to minister to, with and for others."
Emily Howard
Treating discernment as an adventure
"Discerning a call to ministry is a moment-by-moment adventure in connecting with God and integrating prayer with daily life. My discernment is a lifelong pursuit," said Howard, whose pursuit has been wide-ranging.
Raised in the Church of God, Howard attended the College of Wooster, where she participated in a Quaker leadership development program, volunteered in an urban addiction recovery program and interned with a Presbyterian congregation. After graduation, she remained at Wooster as a campus chaplain for three years.
She sought out one more experience before making the commitment to enroll in MTSO's Master of Divinity program: Leaving behind rural Wooster, she moved to Cleveland where she became a part of the ministry team at a new United Church of Christ church called Embody: A Community of Faith. There, she said, "I learned that ministry is not a total pouring out of self for others and God. Rather, ministry fills me up too."
Howard, who received a Methesco Scholarship, feels certain this is the right place to continue her discernment: "God's presence is alive and vibrant at MTSO. I felt it in the chapel and the classrooms, among students, faculty and staff. I want to be a part of that living spirit."
Troy Scot Braswell
Transitioning from pulpit ministry to counseling
Despite serving as an ordained Presbyterian minister for the last 10 years and having a full family life with a wife and three young boys, Braswell finds himself longing to shift the focus of his ministry. The recipient of an MTSO Recognition Award, he will pursue a Master of Arts in Counseling Ministries degree.
Braswell plans to seek licensure as a professional counselor, "likely focusing on marriage and family therapy with a particular emphasis on questions of faith and LGBT issues."
His focus on LGBT issues has taken root in the last few years: "More often than not, the church has been a locus of condemnation for those identifying as lesbian, gay, bisexual or transgendered. That experience is frequently accompanied by internal family conflict."
Braswell has taken pastoral care classes in the past and employed what he learned. "But I still wonder how much more help I might provide to others once I have completed training as a counselor."
"We all have questions," he said. "The maddeningly challenging reality of God is that the more we explore the questions we have, the more new questions we are likely to discover. And that is ultimately what I hope to do with this degree: help others explore their own life questions."
Andrew Burns
Moved by how music speaks to the soul
As a youth delegate to West Ohio Annual Conference in 2010, Burns first felt his call to ministry. He was captivated by the ordination service and still remembers how the strains of God of Grace and God of Glory filled Hoover Auditorium: "It was a feeling similar to how I imagine John Wesley must have felt when he wrote that his heart was 'strangely warmed' on Aldersgate Street."
A couple of years later, as an intern with the West Ohio Next Generations Leadership Summer Internship program, he worked with two United Methodist churches near Dayton. "I was able to experience the rigors of several ministry areas, including music, event planning and creating a new outreach team," he said.
Inspired by that summer, he returned to his sophomore year at Ohio Northern University and changed his major to music, with a minor in communication studies. When he began serving as a student pastor of Alger First UMC in July 2014, he relied on his communication skills in preparing sermons each week.
Yet as he enters MTSO as an M. Div. student and a recipient of an Alford Scholarship, it is in his music degree that Burns finds the most historical and spiritual connections to ministry: "Music gives a voice to the deepest part of the human soul. As a pastor, that is the part of the soul to which I desire to speak."

'C' Strings Usage
What is the difference between strcpy & strncpy ?
What will be the impact , if NULL value not appended to the end of every string copy ?
Re: 'C' Strings Usage
strcpy copies the full string and strncpy copies a maximum of n characters.
strcpy(dest,"Hello world") copies "Hello world" including the terminating zero to dest.
strncpy(dest,"Hello world",3) copies 'H', 'e' and 'l' to dest. If you want it null terminated then you must add dest[3]=0;
strncpy is useful for preventing buffer overflows.
Your second question assumes it should be. This is not necessarily the case; you may only want 'H','e','l' copying into dest. If NULL was automatically appended and you didn't want that, you'd end up with something awkward like char tmp=dest[3]; strncpy(dest,"Hello world",3); dest[3]=tmp; as opposed to the clearer code in the event that you do want NULL appending: strncpy(dest,"Hello world",3); dest[3]=0; C was designed (a) to assume the programmer knows what he is doing and (b) to be fast. So functions do exactly what they say on the box, and it's up to you to understand the implications of that.

Today I completed most of Phase 3 of the construction of my duck galantine with pistachios. I made the forcemeat and stuffed, sewed and wrapped the duck. I could have cooked it but there was too much other stuff going on and I did not want to bother. I'll poached it off tomorrow and post the photos forthrightly.
If the captions below the photos don't tell you all you need to know about what I did. Well, you know where to reach me!

Kelly Rowland's 'Dirty Laundry' music video: Watch
Hey, if you weren't moved by Kelly Rowland's "Dirty Laundry" as a song by itself, maybe watch the video and give it another try.
The former Destiny's Child singer features in a dark reliving (and darker laundry cycle) of her worser years with an abusive ex. As previously reported, "Dirty Laundry" name-checks her "sister" Beyonce, who was "killin' it" while Rowland suffered the crimes and bouts of self-doubt.
I think its especially beautiful when the water flies slow-motion across the screen, up against shots of tears rolling easily down the singer's cheeks, like NBD. There can be a tendency in emotional, personal music videos to wear negative energy like a garish accessory, but Rowland presents her struggles plainly and beautifully here.
"Dirty Laundry" is off of Rowland's latest album "Talk a Good Game." Read HitFix's review of the set here.

RARITAN TWP. — A policy that calls for head lice inspections by nurses and exclusion from school of any child found with head lice is to be introduced tonight at the Flemington-Raritan school board meeting, which starts at 7 p.m. in the Case Middle School auditorium.
An executive session of the board, which is held in private, is to precede the public meeting at 6 p.m.
Three years ago, the board adopted a set of head lice protocols advanced by district nurses which were based on science rather than older views of head lice, the nurses said at the time.
The current protocols are based on findings of the Harvard School of Public Health and were put into practice at the beginning of the 2010-11 school year by district nurses. They do not require teachers or the school nurse to examine children for head lice after learning of a case in the class, nor are students with head lice automatically excluded from school.
But those practices concern school board members Marianne Kenny and Anna Fallon, who sit on the board's policy committee. Fallon became a board member two years ago. Kenny, who works in the field of pharmaceutical development, joined last spring.
According to the proposed policy, "The board believes that pediculosis (head lice) is a contagious infestation that is detrimental to the health or cleanliness of the pupils in the school."
"...any student who has evidence of head lice infestation will not be allowed to attend school until all live head lice are removed and the nurse has approved re-admission," the policy reads.
The policy sets forth the conditions for re-admission, "upon the inspection and approval of the school nurse." A child sent home with head lice must be accompanied by an adult upon his or her return, have his or her head checked by the school nurse and show not sign of live lice, according to the proposed policy.
School nurses Kathy Kolvites and Kathy Schilder argued against changing the existing protocols at the Nov. 18 school board meeting.
A page devoted to educating parents about head lice was put on the district's website, frsd.k12.nj.us, after the protocols were adopted in 2010.

Jacksonville just got on the board in Charlotte, as the Panthers now lead Jacksonville 5-3 with 7:41 left in the second quarter.
It would still be 5-0 except the Panthers' George Selvie -- best known for wearing Julius Peppers' old number -- jumped into the neutral zone when Jacksonville faced fourth-and-four and was lined up to punt.
That gave Jacksonville new life, and Blaine Gabbert threw a couple of nice balls to get the Jags to Carolina's 35, where the drive stalled and Josh Scobee nailed a 53-yard field goal.

Fire Weather Workshop hosted by
|Senior Forecaster and Fire Weather Program Manager Ron McQueen talks about the 2008 fire weather season. Click on the image for a larger view. Photo by Jody James.
The National Weather Service Office in Lubbock hosted a Fire Weather Workshop on Wednesday, February 20th. This mini-workshop was organized to help educate high-end users, namely local media weather broadcasters, local fire officials, and local emergency managers about local fire weather research and NWS products and services that can be utilized this spring during this very active 2008 fire season.
Approximately 20 people were in attendance for this workshop, including two representatives from the NWS Office in Amarillo, representatives from most of the Lubbock television media stations, and one media representative from the Midland/Odessa area.
|The conference included discussion of various fire weather parameters, and NWS Fire Weather products and services. Click on the image for a larger view. Photo by Jody James.
"I just wanted you to know how much the information I took away from the workshop helped me yesterday! It made a world of change in the way I was able to inform the public about the wildfire threat!"
"The presentations the Lubbock office gave on Wednesday really opened my eyes up and taught me a lot. In fact, the analysis of the synoptic setups of the 2005-2006 season fires helped a lot in forecasting the fire weather potential for this past Saturday and Monday."
"Just want to say thanks for the fire weather conference yesterday...though (I) haven't been in West Texas as long as you…I too had the same approach of fire weather concerns being a bit lower. That changed after the 05/06 event."

NEWPORT, R.I. -- On a recent trip to Rhode Island for a news story, the CBN News crew also a side agenda to find the best food in the Ocean State.
The CBN News crew was on a mission to experience the local dishes, described to us by the tourism department as the "clam shack trinity."
In southern Rhode Island, you will not only find beautiful beaches, but seafood in combinations unique to the smallest state in the union.
Komes Rozes is the owner of Flo's Clam Shack in Newport. He also proved to be the resident guide to the clam shack trinity, which consists of clam cakes, clear chower and stuffies.
While the CBN News crew dined on the local delicacies, Rozes explained what is real deal when it comes to ordering seafood, starting with the clam cakes.
"Basically what they are, a recipe of flour with minced quahogs, which is a hard-shell clam, fresh clam juice, and they're deep fried," he explained. "You can see by here, anytime you have a clam cake that's irregular in shape and has black specks you know there's clams in them. Anytime you get a clam cake and they are like a golf ball, you know they're not real."
Rozes told CBN News that when in Rhode Island, you must eat Rhode Island chowder, which is clear. Please, he said, do not succumb to any cream chowder you might find elsewhere.
The last member of the trinity is the humble stuffie. A "co-hog" filled with peppers, onions and various seasonings.
If you want to experience Rhode Island dining all of the way -- any native or even a wanna-be Islander can direct you to the nearest Del's truck. They are filled with frozen lemonades in all sizes and is the perfect way to cap off that perfect Rhode Island meal.

I eat this meal all the time - except I usually add in olive oil and cumin and well. It is my version of primal fast food
Can of tuna or equivalent volume.
1 avocado
1/4 tsp salt
sloshings of lemon juice
mash and stir with fork until there aren't any huge chunks
I've been having trouble making a decent non-soy mayo and not using my tuna because tuna without mayo was icky, but avocado makes it all better. I don't even need to add celery! It probably would still be good with celery, of course.
and I just realized this should've been in recipes.
Okay, to make it more fitting for this forum, how bad is soy based mayo afterall? And how bad is it if it makes your 80 more like 70?

A general question. What business processes (like OTC - Order to Cach, P2P, R2R etc) would be assosiated with an ECC Implementation with FI, MM, WM, SD, HR and PM modules?
I am Technical person and is setting up Solution Manager for creating business scenarios and processes. I am going in the path of having it created on verticals of business processes. To propose, I would need to know what all kind of business processes would be involved in an implementation with FI,MM,SD,WM,PM and HR.
You can just tell me OTC, R2R, P2P and what all you know of which would be helpful for me. I dont see any link giving me the list of business processes available in SAP.
These high level scenarios that you mention don't really have a fixed meaning. Everyone who mentions them has a different idea on what should be included.
Check out this link, buried in the SAP Best Practices for Wholesale. Their opinions as to which business scenarios should be included in some of the high level scenarios (such as OTC) are documented. Once you get into the standard business scenarios supported by SAP, you can figure out the SAP ECC software modules..
also see
there many part in business processes like OTC, P2Y, P2P, PS, FIN.
as i know, OTC Order To Cash covered all AR transaction and SD.
P2Y Pruchase to Pay covered AP transaction and MM invoicing (non Stock/inventory) an FI invoice.
P2P Plan to Produce covered Production, logistic, MM ( Stock/Inventory).
FIN Finanace covered FA, GL Account, Project System, and Reporting.

loss of loved ones
Coping with the loss of a loved one is never easy and that's why Evangelical Hospice and Community Health Education are offering a six-week educational bereavement group called, "Life After Loss." The program will help participants learn coping techniques to deal with grief and loss - attendance at all six classes is strongly encouraged. Anyone age 18 or older who has experienced the loss of a loved one is invited to attend. Facilitated by Christine Gessner, MSW, of Evangelical Hospice, the program is most effective for those who have been living with loss for longer than six months.
The program is being held from 1:30 to 3:30 p.m., Wednesdays, Sept. 5 to Oct. 10, at the Evangelical Community Health Education Center on Route 15. Pre-registration is requested and the program requires a minimum of six and is limited to 20 participants. To register, call Hospice at 522-2955 by Aug. 31.
Evangelical Community Hospital's Hospice program takes care of the emotional and spiritual needs of the hospice patient and family members, offering support even after the patient's passing. The comprehensive program helps patients with life-limiting illnesses and their families make the most of the time they have left together. This is made possible through nurses who are solely dedicated to the specialty of end of life care. Hospice's philosophy of care emphasizes symptom management and adding quality of life to each day.
Evangelical Community Hospital is a non-profit organization that employs about 1,300 people and has more than 170 employed and non-employed physicians on staff. The Hospital is licensed to accommodate 127 overnight patients, 12 acute rehab patients and 18 bassinets.

A joint degree program offered by the Department of Public Policy and the School of Law gives applicants the opportunity to enroll in both the Master's in Public Policy program and the Juris Doctor program simultaneously. Applicants with baccalaureate degrees in any field who meet the entrance requirements of each program are eligible to apply.
The joint JD/MPP degree program allows students to integrate advanced policy studies and a law school education in a structure that is compatible with part-time as well as full-time study. Classes are held during the day and evening hours. The schedule of a full-time student, after the first year of full-time law study, would comprise three JD courses during the day, and two MPP courses during the evening, a course load of 15 credits sequenced so that the student moves through the curriculum expeditiously. For more information, see the JD/MPP Program Description (PDF).
The sequence of courses and the Law School curricular requirements may be found in the JD/MPP Curriculum Outline (PDF).
Both degrees may be completed full-time in approximately three and a half calendar years. A part-time student typically completes both degrees in five years with summer study and must complete both degrees within seven years.
Students interested in the joint-degree program should contact the Graduate Admissions Office.

Uncle and my boy went fishing and came back with a net full of seafish (three kinds), now smoking it in a homemade 'smoker'.
New experiment: I completely ditched high heels or otherwise fitting-to-the-outfit-shoes on the job, continuing to wear fancy clothes as I have to, but wearing my only warm comfortable shoes: the courage shoes of http://www.wolky.com/US/Shoes/Ladies-winter.aspx
I went to sleep as early as possible this week, and discovered i do prefer 6,5 hours of sleep after all! As i have the talent to sleep literally anywhere, I am doing anything to make it most comfortable for myself.
I am not doing perfect on the food front, this week has been social event after social event, but I do realise it is still me who makes the choice to go ahead with the food. I really need to detach that from eachother, still being bubbly and present but with less or other food

Uncle and my boy went fishing and came back with a net full of seafish (three kinds), now smoking it in a homemade 'smoker'.
Found my way back to the website, have been eating primal for approx half of the week last months. Of course, not putting stress on myself is part of it, which means a slice of bread gets in on many days.
Fortunately, i am not as sensitive as some others to the gluten, though i do feel better than a year ago and my grocery shopping is much easier (can skip whole sections in the super market! Just go to the veggie market, butcher and fish seller)
And i moved closer to nature, which is so great for the night's sleep.
But i do still live near everything, as i am back in the tiny Netherlands.
Loving and loved
Little house with my fiancee & close to nature
Colleagues are now more or less friends-during-45-hours (instead of competitors, being realistic of course, but since i wish everyone the best now, including myself, i developed more)
Knowing my weaknesses and strength
Discovering everyday everyday
Bonding with old friends and a few recent ones
2012 has been incredible sad in some moments for me, but, overall.. loved the experience!
Love where i am now and where i have been
i can truly say i don't regret anything I did, including the stupid things and embarrassing moments, they make me human
What's primal about this? Not very much, but I learned so much about the influence of food.. make a big ass salad for lunch twice a week (i still eat bread, just not daily anymore); always have a primal dinner; learned about the healing power of your own body when I allow enough quality sleep and enough hours in which my body isn't in the 'feeding stage' (which apparently was always, i was used to eat before going to sleep and upon waking up. I know mostly allow a timeframe of 10 up to 16 hours of non-eating naturally! Have been feeling so much better, no nausea or sinus clogged)
Turkey browned in butter and loads of brussels sprouts with massala spices
Almost one year since I started this primal journey, which really was a kick start for many improvements in my life going further than just the vain and the food. I haven't been writing much here, though thinking and reading and rethinking again, just double.
I doubled my time spend outside, I made new friends close to my home, proving to myself that wherever you live for that moment, nice people are everywhere

Renjith's Arjuna Award put on hold over 2008 'dope violation'
By Express News Service - KOCHI
Published: 01st September 2013 08:55 AM
Last Updated: 01st September 2013 08:55 AM
Even as some of the country's best sportspersons received coveted awards from President Pranab Mukherjee on Saturday, the Arjuna Award announced for triple jumper Renjith Maheshwary has been withheld to cross-check on an alleged dope violation that happened five years ago.
The Sports Ministry took the decision to verify the facts that led to the Kerala athlete's suspension for three months after the 48th Open National Athletics Championship held at the Maharaja's College Stadium in Kochi in 2008. The triple jumper's urine sample had tested positive for Ephedrine and he was suspended by the Athletics Federation of India (AFI) after a hearing, accepting the athlete's version that the substance may have crept into his system through the medicines he had taken for fever and cold.
While the Sports Ministry has not removed Renjith from the list of Arjuna awardees for the year, the athlete has been asked to stay in Delhi till Monday when a final decision is expected to be made.
Though dejected by the turn of events, Renjith said that he deserved the award as he had never been caught for doping.
"I met the Sports Minister today and told him what had happened in 2008," Renjith told Express from Delhi.

Trauma EP is not a dancefloor banger. It is a pleasure for ears and mind.
As a real musicaholic, N'To has been producing smoothy melodies since 2004, visiting hip hop, trip hop, ambiant, and acoustic experimentations.

LOS ANGELES - When he looks in the mirror, A.J. Vallejo sees what census-takers describe as the future: a young Latino-American, fluent in Spanish and English, belonging to one of the fastest-growing ethnic groups in America.
What Vallejo hopes he might also be seeing is the future of rock 'n' roll: young, brash and loud as always, but raised on a musical mixture of Tito Puente and Jane's Addiction; Los Lobos and Frank Zappa; Black Sabbath and the Tijuana Brass.
The time seems right. Or is it?
Ricky Martin, Enrique Iglesias, Christina Aguilera and Jennifer Lopez are among the hottest names in music. But they are mainstream pop acts, not rockers.
Los Lobos broke through with "How Will the Wolf Survive?" in 1984. But since then, no other legitimate Latino rock band has captured the imagination of the American public.
The legendary Carlos Santana won three awards at this year's inaugural Latin Grammys, including best record for "Corazon Espinado," which he recorded with the group Mana.
He won eight Grammys earlier in the year, including top album for "Supernatural."
But until "Supernatural," his comeback album, fans had to content themselves listening to Santana's "Oye Como Va" and "Black Magic Woman" on classic rock radio stations.
Vallejo says Los Lobos and Santana are "the only successful Latin crossover guys that Americans can seem to grasp onto."
Still, he hopes the Austin-based band that carries his name will be the next successful Latin rock band.
"We've definitely got our fingers crossed on that one," he said.
It could happen. Vallejo was recently voted the best band in Austin by the music establishment of a city that bills itself as the "Live Music Capital of the World."
Vallejo plays loud and hard, performing a wildly diverse mixture of rap, mariachi, jazz, Metallica-like rock, Emilio Estefan-influenced Cuban pop and other styles.
But there's a history, if not necessarily a method, to that style.
The band takes its name from A.J., the lead guitarist; his twin brother, Alejandro, who plays drums; and younger sibling Omar, the bass and trumpet player. Rounding out the sextet: Bruce Castleberry, an old school pal who plays rhythm guitar; Diego Simmons on percussion; and Heath Clark, also on guitar.
"My mom is from Guatemala, my dad is from Texas but his family is of Mexican descent," said Vallejo, 30, who attended middle school and high school in Birmingham, Ala.
"Where other kids our age were raised by their parents on Bob Dylan and Poco, we were raised on my mom's Tito Puente and Tijuana Brass records," he said.
"And," he said with a laugh, "I think my dad always wanted us to be the Tijuana Brass."
So much so that when the brothers asked for musical instruments, their father brought home three trumpets instead of the drums and guitars they requested.
They studied the trumpet, joined the school band and saved money to buy the instruments they wanted.
"We were in the band mode in middle school, but in high school we started hanging out with chicks and listening to Led Zeppelin and Black Sabbath," Vallejo said. "I think it's just natural how things came together."
They came together in such an eclectic way that it's not surprising to hear A.J. offer rap-influenced lyrics to one of the band's songs while producing a flamenco-style melody as the other guitarists play the power chords and lead passages that are the backbone of traditional rock.
Andy Langer, rock music critic for the Austin Chronicle, has watched Vallejo develop from a ragged part-time band that arrived in town five years ago.
"I don't think they'd tell you they're Austin's best band," Langer said. "What they are is interesting. These guys have radio-ready songs and an entertaining stage show - and they are inherently Latino.
And, for all the quote rock 'n' espanol, there aren't any real arena-rock or hard-rock bands; there aren't any Latin Pearl Jams or Aerosmiths."
So, where does the band go from here?
After years of false hopes and false starts, including serious money problems, two well-received albums on the small TVT label and one minor hit, "Just Another Day," on Latin MTV, Vallejo now has a contract with Emilio Estefan's Crescent Moon label.
Vallejo was the first rock act to sign with Crescent Moon, which released the band's third album, "Into the New," this summer.
"A lot of labels try to sign what is predictable. Crescent Moon would like to let people have their own sound and respect them," said Estefan, who believes Vallejo can do for Latin rock what he and his wife, Gloria, did for Latin pop in the 1980s.
Estefan, recalling his early struggles with record companies that told him he'd have to change his name or make his music more mainstream to grab a U.S. audience, believes it's time for a hard-rock Latino band to break through.
Is the American public ready? Vallejo is optimistic.
He remembers when people in Birmingham couldn't pronounce his first name.
"I got a job at Musicland. The boss was making name tags for everybody one day and said, 'What's your name?' I said, 'Alfredo Jr.' He wrote down A.J. and handed it to me, and I've been A.J. ever since."
But as his tour bus barrels up the East Coast, somewhere between Pittsburgh and Cleveland, he chuckled, "People still come up to us and ask,'What does Valley-Joe stand for?' ''

The word "fractal" was coined by Benoit Mandelbrot (namesake of both the Mandelbrot set and a certain hard-nosed private eye) in 1975. Mandelbrot was not the first mathematician to examine these perplexing shapes, but he launched the formal study of them as a scientific tool to understand complexities found in nature. His book, The Fractal Geometry of Nature paved the way in this regard.For a straightforward, illustrated guide to fractals, you can check out Introducing Fractal Geometry.NOVA documentary about fractals that includes interviews with Benoit Mandelbrot.A great explanation of how the Mandelbrot set is generated.You can use this program to generate and explore fractals.A music video rendition of Jonathan Coulton's Mandelbrot SetA more complete definition of fractals than the one found in this video is: - Fractals are generated through iteration (repeating the same operation infinitely) - Fractals display self similarity (they're repeat the same patterns no matter how much you zoom in) - Fractals have fractional Hausdorff dimension. Essentially, this means that they're rougher than platonic solids—more jagged and with fewer smooth, predictable curves. If you were to walk through a thicket of fractals, they'd stick to your clothes a lot more than spheres and cubes would.This Wikipedia page lists quite a few fractals in increasing order of Hausdorff dimension.Imagine a two-dimensional world -- you, your friends, everything is 2D. In his 1884 novella, Edwin Abbott invented this world and called it Flatland. Alex Rosenthal and George Zaidan take the premise of Flatland one dimension further, imploring us to consider how we would see dimensions different from our own and why the exploration just may be worth it.

Benoit Mandelbrot, namesake of the Mandelbrot set and all-around fractal pioneer, observed that "clouds are not spheres, mountains are not cones, coastlines are not circles, and bark is not smooth, nor does lightning travel in a straight line." In fact, fractals can be found all over the natural world—some examples include the nautilus shell, Romanesco Broccoli, and the coastline of Great Britain.

Zvi Bodie on Stocks and Annuities in Retirement

Professor Bodie has published widely on pension finance and investment strategy. His textbook, Investments, is used in the certification programs of the Financial Planning Association and the Society of Actuaries. His latest book is Worry Free Investing: A Safe Approach to Achieving Your Lifetime Financial Goals.
Dan Richards interviewed Bodie at the CFA Institute annual conference in May.
A video of this interview appears here.
I want to talk today about your argument that stocks in the long run are riskier than many people believe. Where does that opinion come from?
What's interesting to me is, how did people ever get the idea that stocks were less risky? You figure the longer you are out there the higher the chance you're going to deviate from the right path. Think about it in terms of hurricanes. You are trying to predict where a hurricane is going to hit the coast. How big is the area of uncertainty when it is far away?
If you go further out in time, you are getting further away from you're starting point. Things that would seem only remotely possible in the short term -- and of course I'm talking about bad things as well as good things -- become probable. People talk about this in terms of the lower tail of a distribution. Books have been written about this, especially lately, because these highly improbable events in the stock market have happened with greater frequency than they should.
So your thesis is quite plausible. The further you go out the greater the uncertainty you experience.
This is really important -- even though the probability of a loss, of an extreme loss is low, it's actually higher in the long run. Extreme losses have a greater chance of happening the further out you go.

Boise State head coach Chris Petersen has helped the Broncos become one of the best FBS programs of the last decade. Imagine what Petersen could do with a more prestigious program. With that said, which college football powerhouses would love to have Petersen leading their teams this season?
When Petersen assumed his current position in 2006, he began building on what Dirk Koetter and Dan Hawkins started: consistently leading Boise State to 10-win seasons. Petersen has brought the Broncos to even greater heights, which includes four Top 10 rankings in the final AP poll. Before Petersen's arrival, the program never finished better than 12th in that poll.
Petersen also has led Boise State to two Fiesta Bowl victories, and in those seasons (2006 and 2009), the Broncos finished with no losses.
Of all the programs one might consider elite in college football today, Boise State arguably has the most limitations. The conference affiliation (Mountain West) and lack of big-time recruits haven't helped the Broncos get to the top, so Petersen's coaching abilities are even more impressive. Petersen develops players passed over by other powerhouses into guys who can beat any team in the country.
Some powerhouses have all the resources available to make them champions, but they can't meet their expectations. If they had a coach like Petersen, then maybe they could meet those goals. This list contains eight powerhouses in this group of underachievers.
Powerhouses with first-year head coaches didn't make the list, because we can assume they've acknowledged and addressed any recent coaching-related issues. The teams are listed in alphabetical order.

The adjustable gastric band is a constricting ring placed around the stomach to reduce the amount of food it holds at one time. This procedure uses a minimally-invasive laparoscope to place the adjustable band around the stomach.
This is purely a gastric restrictive procedure, and it can be adjusted, if necessary, during an office visit.
Pure gastric restrictive procedures tend to be the simplest weight loss procedures, but they also require stricter discipline for successful weight loss. It is possible to defeat the adjustable gastric band surgery by gradually stretching the constricted stomach pouch, or by eating so frequently that weight loss eventually stops, or even reverses.
Nevertheless, a loss of nearly 40 percent of excess weight is common with this procedure. The adjustable gastric band is simple and has the fewest complications of any weight loss procedure. Other than tightly restricting the amount of food eaten, it creates few other changes in eating and digestion.
Laparoscopic procedures are operations performed with special tools through small holes in the skin. Instead of the large incision used in traditional surgery, the physician makes a few small holes and inserts tools and a small video camera. This method allows the physician to see and work with great precision.

The College of Agriculture and Natural Resources at MSU is an exceptionally exciting place to be, according to Kelly Millenbah, Ph.D. She's the associate dean and director of academic student affairs in the College and a professor in the Department of Fisheries and Wildlife at MSU.
The college has its highest enrollment since the early 1980's and the numbers are continuing to improve. The college offers 19 different majors for students to pursue with more on the way.
"These areas of study are critical when you think about food, energy and the environment," Millenbah says.
A new department called Community Sustainability offers three new undergraduate majors—environmental studies and sustainability, sustainable parks recreation and tourism, and agriculture, food and natural resources education.
"The nice part about those three majors is that they actually share a common core of sustainability courses," Millenbah says.
The Residential Initiative on the Study of the Environment or RISE program resides within the college too. It offers a unique set of learning conditions for students outside of the normal classroom experience, like the ability to explore and learn at the MSU Student Organic Farm.
"We provide opportunities for students to get out, see what the student organic farm is all about," Millenbah says. "They get their hands dirty, engage in experiential learning and are able to take that learning experience and make sense of what they just saw out there and interface it with the information they're actually learning inside the classroom."
Click here to hear Millenbah's Greening of the Great Lakes conversation with Kirk Heinze.
The College of Agriculture and Natural Resources is at the forefront in thinking about the need for its graduates to be "T-shaped Professionals", a concept Michigan State University has been spreading to disciplines across campus.
"It's the idea is that students are essentially not only prepared academically, but they have other skills that they can bring to the table when they get out into the workplace to make them even more valuable and critical to their jobs," Millenbah says.
Millenbah adds that she often hears that people think the College of Agriculture and Natural Resources is not a STEM college.
"What we do is deeply embedded in science, technology, engineering and mathematics. Part of what we want to ensure people understand is that we have a rich breadth of opportunities for students in the STEM areas across the college," Millenbah says.
Greening of the Great Lakes airs every Sunday evening at 7:00 on News/Talk 760 WJR. Please follow us on Twitter.

• We report a case of carcinoid-like syndrome in a patient with metastatic renal cell carcinoma. Peripheral venous plasma levels of prostaglandin (PG) E and of a derivative of PGF2α were raised during the attacks. The urinary excretion of 5-hydroxyindoleacetic acid was repeatedly normal. The flushing attacks were not prevented by therapy with antihistamines, phenothiazines, antiserotonin agents, or glucocorticoids. Treatment with aspirin completely prevented the attacks, and its withdrawal led invariably to their recurrence.

STATEN ISLAND, N.Y. -- Marching in Columbus Day parades to herald Italian-American heritage never gets old for state Sen. Diane Savino.
This year, she marched in three, including the one up Manhattan's Fifth Avenue on the holiday itself, Monday.
"The turnout," she said, "was tremendous. The parade route was jammed."
This after marching in two Columbus Day parades over weekend -- Saturday in Brooklyn and Sunday in the Bronx. (RELATED: Check out SILive user Edward J. Leavy's Manhattan parade photos.)
The annual parade on Staten Island was canceled this year by Borough Hall, due to what was termed a scheduling conflict, leaving many here upset.
"It was disappointing," said Ms. Savino (D-North Shore/Brooklyn). "The parade really means something to people locally. The Italian-American immigrant population is one of the largest in New York state and the nation. We have assimilated, and it can be very easy for us to forget our heritage. These events help us reconnect with what it means to be an Italian-American."
Ms. Savino, immediate past president of the New York State Conference of Italian-American legislators, said she's marched in 10 Columbus Day parades in Manhattan and it's always a thrill.
She said she was the only Island lawmaker in the parade, but marched with a contingent of Italian-American state and city officials, including former City Council Speaker Peter Vallone -- hence the New York City Italian Caucus sash she sported.
Afterward, she visited the Italian-American Museum on Mulberry Street.

GULF COAST BEACHES, Alabama – It's that time of the year for family gatherings which means gorging on mom's homemade meals, especially in Alabama. Here in the Deep South holiday fare usually means authentic Southern country grub. Maybe this holiday will find you along the beaches of Alabama and away from family home cooking.
Sure, we reel in, clean and serve up red snapper as well as any coastal community, but there's no shortage of places that serve up genuine Southern-inspired country cooked cuisine just like your memaw (or wife) would make this holiday season.
I visited six eateries and created a photo gallery with details in the photos. So, if you're visiting Alabama's beaches this season, I did the research for you and listed some places by the beach that serve up all the Southern fare standards one would expect when you got a hankering for Southern country chow.
I want to hear from you on this culinary topic. What's your favorite traditional country food restaurant along Alabama's beaches. And if your restaurant isn't included then let me know why should be.
