Coming home
Date posted:
There's renewed optimism about manufacturing in the country. Manufacturing has been adding jobs recently in both the nation and here in North Carolina. Some of these jobs are coming from companies moving operations back to the U.S. from overseas. Why does it appear manufacturing is enjoying a revival? N.C. State University economist Mike Walden answers.
"A couple of factors here. … First of all, manufacturing always takes a big hit during recessions simply because people and businesses can postpone buying manufactured products. Then when the economy begins to improve, you see a strong rebound in manufacturing. Probably the best example of that right now is the auto industry.
"But also you mentioned some companies moving operations back to the U.S. We had, for example, General Electric as well as Apple talk about moving some operations back to the U.S. Several factors (are) at work here. First of all, higher fuel prices are making it more expensive to ship products for example overseas from Asia to the U.S. At the same time, lower natural gas prices here in the U.S. (are) helping to lower U.S. production costs here. Another factor is wages of foreign workers. The average Chinese worker now has seen his or her wage grow five times since 2000. That's obviously reducing their competitive edge. At the same time U.S. workers have becoming more productive in terms of their costs per unit hour of production.
"And the result of all this is that for some companies, certainly not all, but for some companies it's now making simple economic sense to produce back here in the U.S."Category: Economic Perspective

on December 15, 2012 - 11:48 PM
So now we have the Dodgers and Angels taking their game of one-upsmanship to absurd levels even the Yankees and Red Sox never went to. Should we all just book our hotels now for a Freeway World Series next October or are these two crazy-spending ownership groups setting everyone up for the 21st-century version of "Waterworld?"
(Remember that one? It was the Kevin Costner flick that cost nearly $175 million, a record at the time for Hollywood, and never came close to recouping its money.)
You wonder if these two teams are headed for a similar fate. Sure, the Angels have an amazing lineup now with Josh Hamilton, Albert Pujols and Mike Trout. But where's their starting pitching after Jared Weaver and maybe C.J. Wilson? The Dodgers still have to figure out their chemistry issues after last year's big deal with the Red Sox. At least they have pitching but even that has questions.
Clayton Kershaw remains the Dodgers' ace but Korean signee Hyun-Jin Ryu better be worth the $62 million they just spent on him. Zack Greinke one of the highest-paid pitchers ever at $147 million? Good luck with that. He's dealt with anxiety issues during his career and the prevailing wisdom was that he needed a smaller market so he wasn't in a fish bowl.
Los Angeles is not the media firestorm of Boston and New York, but Greinke is about to be in the biggest pressure-cooker of his career. He's 31-11 the last two years with Milwaukee and the Angels but now he really has to produce or the questions will start firing.
The Dodgers were in bankruptcy a year ago, the franchise tied up in the divorce courts amid the ongoing squabble of the McCourt family. Now, Magic Johnson, Stan Kasten & Co. have a team that will set the all-time record by opening next season with a payroll of more than $220 million — more than double last year's figure. Luxury taxes, be damned.
Various accounting figures of the new ownership show it has spent more than $600 million in its first six months at the helm, roughly the same amount the McCourt family spent in the previous six years combined.
On top of that, the Dodgers are also spending $100 million on renovations to Dodger Stadium (and they're not being provincial about that, as a doubling of the visitors clubhouse is on that list).
Angels owner Arte Moreno clearly couldn't stand being left out of the crowd and made another stealth free agent move. Remember, Pujols was expected to go to Miami last year before the Angels swooped in and no one had Hamilton going West this year either.
"I started off with the Devil Rays and now I'm an Angel," said the five-time All-Star at Saturday's news conference. He was drafted by Tampa Bay before making his major league debut with Cincinnati in 2007.
Is it a risk? Absolutely. Hamilton's addiction history is widely known and most scouts say he's got more years than the average 32-year-old body because of it. And certainly temptation is going to be much greater in Southern California.
"I have a past history of making mistakes with drugs and alcohol, drinking twice in seven years, which is not good for me," Hamilton said. "They're going to help me with my support system to put things in place that I had with the Rangers."
First home series in the year for Texas? April 5-7 against the Angels. That should be interesting. So should the four Dodgers-Angels games the last week of May. Will they have rematches come October?
Ownership is banking on that, so that means managers Don Mattingly and Mike Scioscia just entered a real pressure-cooker. But the Yankees have proven time after time that money doesn't guarantee a World Series title (they have one in the last 12 years). And the Angels were clearly the winners of last winter. Got them nothing.
Meanwhile, teams like the Rays, Athletics and Orioles prove winning can happen without big budgets. You have to pitch, you have to draft and you have to develop. The Angels and Dodgers are going for the quick-fix short cuts. Good luck to them.
Halos boot media
One outgrowth of the Angels' big payroll is that they've announced they're converting the press box into premium seating and moving the media from behind home plate to an area down the right-field line. I would imagine the Baseball Writers' Association of America (full disclosure: I'm a member) will take this issue directly to Bud Selig.
When the White Sox did this in 2006, Selig instructed teams to keep their press boxes behind the home plate area. The Royals and Astros both moved the media — but simply higher up in the stadium and behind the plate. The Yankees and Mets certainly would have gone for the revenue in their new parks had Selig not made his decree, but instead kept the press behind the plate.
It remains to be seen if other teams will test Selig's mettle on this issue. In the NFL, writers have been powerless on the issue, as most teams have moved press boxes to corners and end zones (the Bills have long been rumored to be pondering a similar move).
R.A. to TO?
One of the most bizarre negotiations that's been going on in recent weeks has been between the Mets and Cy Young Award winner R.A. Dickey, who is in the unusual spot of looking for an extension at age 38. Dickey will make $5 million this year and wants two more years at a total of $26-$28 million.
The Mets are said to only be offering $20 million, concerned about Dickey's durability and perhaps distraction levels from his explosion of off-field activities. But then the Red Sox signed Ryan Dempster for two years and $26.5 million on Thursday. No way Dickey will take less now.
"It's hard," Dickey said last week at Citi Field during a holiday party for children impacted by Hurricane Sandy. "When people say it's business, it's not personal, well that just means it's not personal for them. I'm hoping it ends up in a good place, but also in the back of your mind you think it may not. That's sad."
The Blue Jays entered the weekend making a serious play for Dickey as a No. 1 starter. The Mets need a catcher and a center fielder, now that Andres Torres has gone back to San Francisco. Dickey for J.P. Arencibia and projected Bisons starter Anthony Gose? Hmmm.
Manto among finalists
Former Bisons slugger Jeff Manto, ex-Buffalo manager Marc Bombard and former Bisons executive Don Labbruzzo are among the 10 finalists for the International League Hall of Fame (Full disclosure dept.: This corner is one of 61 voters).
I voted for those three, along with former Columbus standout Marshall Brant, ex-Rochester Red Wings/Baltimore Orioles star Dennis Martinez and former Durham/Toledo closer Lee Gardner.
Manto, of course, is the most celebrated player in the Bisons' modern era and the only one to have his uniform retired. He just completed his first year as hitting coach of the Chicago White Sox and was excited to learn this week the Sox moved veteran Harold Baines, Manto's former teammate in Baltimore, into the role as an assistant hitting coach for next year. Several big-league teams are moving to a two-coach role with their hitters to alleviate workloads in areas such as video and batting practice.
"We're on the same page with our language and our thoughts," Manto told CSNChicago.com. "It's not even going to be a transition."
In addition to his time in Buffalo, Manto had an 88-RBI season for Scranton in 1993 and an MVP season in 1994 with Norfolk and Rochester, combining for 31 homers and 100 RBIs. You have to think he's a lock for induction.
Bombard led the Bisons to an 87-57 record and American Association East Division championship in 1992, but he's on the IL Hall ballot for his franchise-record 607 wins and four playoff berths with Scranton/Wilkes-Barre from 1997-2004.
Labbruzzo, who died in 1999, was inducted into the Buffalo Baseball Hall of Fame in 1987. He was the Bisons' GM from 1958-60 and again in 1970, when he took heavy personal losses trying to save the team before it was moved to Winnipeg. He also worked in the IL for Columbus (1955-57), Syracuse (1961-69) and Rochester (1977-78).
The new class will be announced in late January and inductees are honored at games around the league all summer.
Pascucci moves up
Bisons PR maven Brad Bisbing issued his annual statistical update last week on Coca-Cola Field's 25 seasons and Mets-era slugger Valentino Pascucci made some big jumps on the leader boards.
Pascucci is tied with Bill Selby for third in home runs downtown with 31, behind only Manto (47) and Alex Ramirez (33). Pascucci is third in RBIs with 106 (Selby had 115 and Jason Cooper had 110), and second in walks with 105 (Manto had 119). He's the leader in strikeouts with 194.
One unusual note was that infielder Josh Satin played 76 games downtown last season, a record almost sure to go unmatched. The Bisons, remember, played six games against Scranton/Wilkes-Barre as the road team while the Yankees' ballpark was being renovated.
Around & About
• The Indians couldn't get Shane Victorino despite offering him an absurd $44 million over four years (he took 3/$39M from Boston). They couldn't get Kevin Youkilis to come back to play for Terry Francona for two years (he took one year from the Yankees).
They're still in on former Ohio State player Nick Swisher but at least they did well in trading Shin-Soo Choo to the Reds and getting former Arizona top prospect Trevor Bauer as part of the three-team deal. They're said to still be shopping Asdrubal Cabrera too, although the premium on shortstops means they better get a good return if they make a deal.
• Mets first baseman Ike Davis to MLB.com on 2013: "I'm actually super excited. I'm healthy. Hopefully I don't get some crazy disease." Davis, remember, struggled for the first half of 2012 after contracting Valley Fever in his native Arizona.
• What are the Royals doing? They traded Wil Myers for James Shields and Wade Davis? Myers, remember, was basically the top prospect last year in Triple-A once Bryce Harper went to the majors and was the Pacific Coast League MVP at the Triple-A All-Star Game in Coca-Cola Field. He's exactly the kind of player you build around to snap a 27-year postseason drought. You don't dump him for a mid-level starter. Crazy.

FORT MYERS, Fla. - Jeff Manship entered free agency last Oct. 19, two days after the pitching-starved Colorado Rockies discarded the righthander. His resumé boasted nothing extraordinary; a 6.42 ERA in 52 career games, a few starts, and a checkered health history.
The Phillies called more than a month later. They were the first - and only - team to inquire about Manship's 29-year-old right arm. The two sides reached an agreement Dec. 2 on a minor-league contract.
"It was really an easy decision, I thought," Manship said. "Granted, I didn't have any other options."
He grinned. Manship, with his right arm wrapped in ice, enjoyed this moment. He continued his sublime spring with three decent innings Sunday against Minnesota, the team that drafted him. In seven Grapefruit League innings, Manship has permitted one run with six strikeouts and one walk.

The Gods Awakened (Tales of the Timuras, Book 3)by Allan Cole
Enter lands of mystery, magic, and danger in the triumphant epic fantasy inspired by The Rubáiyát of Omar Khayyám! The realm is tormented by catastrophe. Lord Safar Timura, the great wizard, is trapped in the doomed world of Hadin, condemned to suffer and die, over and over again. It is up to his wizard son, Prince Palimak, to stop the disaster slowly poisoning land and sea. Though he is half human and half demon, even Palimak may not possess the awesome powers needed to free Safar and discover the great lost tomb, guarded by a fierce she-beast who holds secrets to halt the terror. There are many enemies, barbarian kings, monsters of the underworld--and, lording over all, the Demon Moon, looming in silent, bloody challenge. With the help of Leiria, warrior goddess, Palimak must destroy the doomspell and confront the sinister Demon Moon. Only then will the gods be awakened and the world be saved ...
Wizard of the Winds (Tales of the Timuras, Book 1)by Allan Cole
KING OF KINGS, LORD OVER MEN AND DEMONS. ALIKE Only one ruler had ever held that title, and now Iraj Protarus, an orphaned prince exiled to a small village high in the Valley of the Clouds, dreamed of being the next great conqueror. The key to his destiny would be Safar Timura, a youth with an awesome gift for sorcery, whose visions foretold Iraj's rise to power. And in those visions, Safar stood at Iraj's side, his soul-blasting spells enabling his friend to attain his dreams. But Safar had other visions with darker portents, and his spellbound knowledge raised secrets better left buried. The road the two men followed would be rich in titles and fortunes, but it would also be rich in death and disaster, in intrigue--and in unforgivable betrayal . . . Let the Wizard of the Winds sweep you away with a tale of such power and passion that you will forget every other fantasy you've ever read. Enter a world where humans and demons are deadly enemies, where the destiny of entire dynasties is buffeted mercilessly by the stormy winds of sorcery powerful beyond imagination. Like the masters who have come before him, Allan Cole has created a haunting and unique world peopled with characters you will hate to love and love to hate . . . a unique world whose siren song will be irresistible to fantasy lovers everywhere.
Wolves of the Gods (Tales of the Timuras, Book 2)by Allan Cole
The triumphant epic fantasy inspired by Omar Khayyam's The Rubaiyat, The Wolves of the Gods is a world of breathtaking beauty and savagery, of noble sacrifice and base betrayal, a world where the most powerful magic of all, for good and evil, lies in the divided hearts of humans and demons. A nameless evil stalks the land, preying on all that lives, human and demon alike. Only one man has the power to stem the ravening tide: Safar Timura, greatest wizard of the age, whose matchless magic once raised Iraj Protarus to the throne of all Esmir ... and then, when king turned tyrant, destroyed him. Now Safar is done with the deadly intrigues of courts and kings. Back in his mountain home of Kyrania, he wants only to be left alone. But when a brutal murder smashes his solitude, Safar must lead his people on a desperate trek to safety--a perilous journey to fabled, far-off Syrapis guided only by a magical vision and the words of a sorcerer long dead. The road leads straight through dark Caluz, a once-proud land now fallen beneath the sorcerous yoke of an unspeakable darkness. But there is no going back. Close at Safar's heels another evil follows like a rapacious wolf: Iraj Protarus. For the King of Kings has returned from the dead, hideously transformed--and thirsting for Safar's blood.

Animal Passions
Greetings, my friends
You may from time to time have had occasion to turn to that curious omnium-gatherum of the modern age that goes by the name of Wikipedia – an endeavour, as I understand it, that is the collaborative work of many hands, in which the considered contribution of the greatest acknowledged professional authority in the field may be confounded in an instant at the whim of an uninformed youth on a ranch in rural Idaho; and in which, if length of entry and frequency of revision be any measure, the Third Law of Thermodynamics is deemed to be a lesser contribution to the sum of human knowledge than the List of My Little Pony Characters . Should you do so, and should you be inclined to seek therein the account of my own life and thought , you will learn that I am 'best known' for my 'advocacy of utilitarianism and animal rights, and the idea of the panopticon'.
I must confess that this intelligence caused me no little surprise when first I chanced to come across it. I have, of course, no argument with being hailed as the arch-proponent of utilitarianism, a mode of rational argument which may be seen as forming the cornerstone of my life's work. And while my plans for panopticon prisons, industry houses and manufactories must be deemed to have fallen short of total success, in that I failed to persuade the several administrations of the day of the practical efficacy of their adoption, I will concede that my labours upon them occupied more than a dozen years of my life, and that they merit a place in any summation of my ideas and achievements. But what of the third integrant in this triad? Is it my formulation of the hedonistic calculus, my deontology, my arguments for the codification of laws – all topics for which I would hope to have been remembered in the annals of posterity? No, it is none of these: it is my advocacy of 'animal rights'; a matter which, had I been invited to pen my own obituary at far greater length than the Wikipedia article, it would hardly have occurred to me to mention.
The question of animal welfare, in the particular context of experimentation upon animal subjects to scientific ends, has recently (once again) been touched upon in the public prints . It is, moreover, a topic of ethical concern with which some of my present readers may be directly engaged. This seems an opportune moment and forum, therefore, to expound and clarify some of my views on the subject of animal suffering.
Mistake me not, I am not about to deny an interest in animal welfare. I was in my lifetime extremely fond of animals. Barring a moment of youthful aberration (for which I soon expressed remorse) in which I tormented ear-wigs by placing them in the flame of a candle in order to enjoy the writhings of their bodies and the little explosions made by the moisture
of their juices, I had many happy encounters with animals. I kept a pet mouse in the drawer of my desk, a pet pig in my garden, I fed the deer in St James's Park, and for many years in old age I enjoyed the company of my cat, the Reverend Dr. John Langborn. My complaint is rather that a few brief remarks upon the subject of animal suffering have been taken from their context and, although not significantly distorted, accorded a weight which I did not envisage. Let me quote them now. Within the context of a much broader discussion of the limits of penal jurisprudence, I digressed as follows:
The day may come when the rest of the animal creation may acquire those rights which never could have been witholden from them but by the hand of tyranny. … It may come one day to be recognized that the number of the legs, the villosity of the skin, or the termination of the os sacrum are reasons insufficient for abandoning a sensitive being to the same fate [the caprice of a tormentor]. What else is it that should trace the insuperable line? Is it the faculty of reason or perhaps the faculty of discourse? But a full-grown horse or dog, is beyond comparison a more rational, as well as a more conversable animal, than an infant of a day or a week or even a month, old. But suppose the case were otherwise, what would it avail? the question is not, Can they reason? nor, Can they talk? but Can they suffer?
Those words, or at least the last of them, have become almost a slogan of the lobbyists for animal rights, even being seen inscribed upon that most extraordinary of modern garments, the 't-shirt'. (I am tempted to enter here upon a digression concerning the vagaries of fashion, but I shall resist the lure.)
I did, in fact, discourse upon the subject at slightly greater length in a letter published in the Morning Chronicle in March 1825, and I feel that some of the arguments I expressed then deserve repetition here:
I have never seen, nor ever can see, any object to the putting of dogs and other inferior animals to pain, in the way of medical experiment, when that experiment has a determinate object, beneficial to mankind, accompanied with a fair prospect of the accomplishment of it. But I have a decided and insuperable objection to the putting of them to pain without any such view. To my apprehension, every act by which, without prospect of preponderant good, pain is knowingly and willingly produced in any being whatsoever, is an act of cruelty; and like other bad habits, the more the correspondent habit is indulged in, the stronger it grows, and the more frequently productive of its bad fruit. I am unable to comprehend how it should be, that to him to whom it is a matter of amusement to see a dog or horse suffer, it should not be matter of like amusement to see a man suffer; seeing, as I do, how much more morality as well as intelligence, an adult quadruped of those and many other species has in him, than any biped has for some months after he has been brought into existence.
In the article in the Independent newspaper which has prompted the present rumination, it is noted that scientific experiments upon animals in Britain are now regulated by the Animals (Scientific Procedures) Act of 1986, which requires that, for any experiment to be licensed, the good to humans must clearly outweigh the harm to animals. That is an unambiguous demand for a utilitarian approach to the issue, and it is, I would like to think, my true legacy.
I remain your servant,

While it looks something like the vegetable world's answer to a sea urchin, kohlrabi is actually a cross between a cabbage and a turnip. It's an easy, fast-growing crop with edible leaves and a crisp, swollen base that's tender and mild tasting. The bulbous stems are ready to harvest from 38 to 60 days from sowing, and it's easy to start them right in the garden. In spring, sow seeds outdoors 4 to 6 weeks before the last frost date. They're ideal fall crops: Begin sowing seed 8 to 10 weeks before the first fall frost. Space seeds 3"/7.6 cm apart, then thin to 6"/15.2 cm when the plants have a couple of true leaves. To spread out the harvest, plant small batches of seed every week or so in spring as long as the weather remains cool, then begin again in fall. In Zones 9 and 10, plant kohlrabi through the winter months. Reprinted from The Veggie Gardener's Answer Book Copyright 2008 by Barbara W. Ellis, with permission from Storey Publishing.

As I look back at my recipes in the bread section I want to laugh. You might recall me saying…
"I like classic banana bread, but if given the choice between that and some other breads out there, its my second choice."
You'd think otherwise, since MOST of them ARE banana breads in some form. 😉 Truly though, I think it's just the classic one that needs something.
So on that note, I've found yet another variation to banana bread!
This one I would not call quick bread in the sense of making it. It had lots of "parts" to it. But the results were SO good it didn't last more then 5 min out of the oven. I am totally serious too! It was heavenly warm, and we never got to try it cold as it was to good.
For starters, the original recipe (from A Whisk and Spoon) called for granny smith apples. I never have those on hand, as I am not fond of them. So I simply used my gala apples. Tasted great! I recommend just using whatever apple you have on hand.
I cored, peeled, and chopped two gala apples.
Then prepared the pan for the apples.
I have to say, this made my brain tick. I think this would make for a seriously yummy apple pie filling! 🙂 I think I will try it someday. It smelled divine!
I forgot to get a picture of the dry ingredients, but I did get one of the beat sugar and butter. 😉
This is the part that makes me say this isn't the quickest quick bread. There is a pattern to follow. While not a completely hard one, you still HAVE to use your brain. And at this point in my pregnancy, my brain doesn't seem to be working so hot.
I put all the ingredients I needed, ready to add to the bowl to mix in a certain order. The original recipe called for Orange Juice. I didn't have that, but I did have apple juice. Seemed to work out just fine.
I added the eggs one at a time, like the recipe suggested.
While I was working on this recipe I had Noah stirring some flour in a bowl of his own. He seemed to enjoy "helping" me in this way.
I added all the ingredients in the order suggested.
Into the pan to cook, and out of the oven came this bread that was SO good it barely made it out of the oven before it was devoured.
Note to self: Make TWO of these next time!
This is about what was left after 5 minutes or so. And even then, this was gone within the hour. It was truly good bread!
- For the apples:
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 3 tablespoons firmly packed dark brown sugar
- 2 apples, peeled, cored, and cut into 1/2-inch pieces
- ½ teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
- For the banana bread:
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- ½ teaspoon ground cinnamon
- ¼ teaspoon ground cloves
- ¼ teaspoon freshly ground nutmeg
- ½ teaspoon kosher salt
- 8 tablespoons (1 stick) unsalted butter
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 2 large eggs
- ¼ cup apple juice
- 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
- 1 ¼ cups very ripe mashed bananas (2 to 3)
- Before you start:
- Preheat the oven to 350°F. Lightly butter and flour a 1 1/2-quart loaf pan.
- To make the apples:
- Preheat a medium skillet over medium-high heat. Add the butter and brown sugar and heat until bubbling. Add the apples and cinnamon and sauté until golden and tender, about 5 minutes. Stir in the vanilla. Remove from the heat and set aside to cool.
- To make the banana bread:
- -In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, cinnamon, cloves, nutmeg, and salt.
- -In the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, cream the butter and sugar until light and fluffy, 1 to 2 minutes. Add the eggs, one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Scrape down the sides of the bowl.
- -In a small bowl, combine the apple juice and vanilla.
- -Add the flour mixture to the butter mixture in three batches, alternating with the apple juice mixture, mixing well after each addition. Scrape down the sides of the bowl after each flour addition. Stir in the mashed bananas until combined. Then stir in the reserved apples.
- -Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan. Bake for 55 to 60 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean. Remove to a wire rack to cool for 20 minutes before unmolding onto the rack to cool further.

She doesn't have Dalmatian spots, for one thing. She doesn't wear one of those red plastic helmets. And she doesn't live at Burton's Fire Station No. 2.
Lu-Lu Bell is part of a new generation of fire dogs, a privately-owned pooch who will be trained to sniff out survivors. And lately, she and Burton firefighter Bob Johnson have been teaching children fire safety.
Johnson adopted the dog — a yellow lab and German shepherd mix — from the Genesee County Humane Society as a Mother's Day gift for his wife, Tammy.
Kindergartners from Bentley's Barhitte Elementary made the dog's acquaintance this month, during a visit to the Lapeer Road station, where Lu-Lu Bell caught the kids' attention with her "stop, drop and roll" routine.
"Lu-Lu Bell, where do you work?" said Johnson, triggering a doggy reply that sounded like "rrruuufff."
"On the roof?" said Johnson, as the children giggled. "You don't work on the roof."
Once the duo had kids' attention, Johnson said, "Lu-Lu Bell, what do you do if there's a fire?" It was the dog's cue to belly-scoot across the concrete floor.
"That's right, you crawl," said Johnson. "And what do you do if the fire gets on your clothes?"
Lu-Lu Bell flipped over and Johnson turned to the kids.
"If there's a fire, we've got to roll, got to put the fire out," he said.
David Marshall, 6, a kindergartner in Marla Cobb's Barhitte classroom, admired the dog's willingness to crawl across the fire station floor — a feat he personally didn't care to imitate.
"It would make me dirty," he said.
Kaylee Deblouw, 5, appreciated the lesson too but had just one thing on her mind after watching Lu-Lu Bell's routine.
"I wanted to go pat her," Kaylee said.
Tammy, who came out to watch the dog's performance, didn't mind sharing her gift with the class.
"Bob got her for me on Mother's Day but she's his dog," she said, laughing. "He takes her everywhere."
Being around kids is what Lu-Lu Bell loves best.
Along with teaching fire safety, Lu-Lu Bell's training is focusing on sniffing out living victims of a disaster.
Unlike cadaver dogs, she only reacts to live victims, said Johnson, who believes the dog also reacts to those with Alzheimer's disease.
"If someone wandered away from home, she'd be a great asset."
Johnson often appreciates having the dog by his side.
"She's never vicious but she can be boisterous if someone approaches the vehicle at night. And she's a big help if I have to go to a rowdy campfire — she keeps people at bay."
The dog's care and training is funded by the Johnson family.
"She's a free resource," said Johnson. "She's not costing the city anything."
Fire Chief Doug Halstead said he's impressed with Lu-Lu Bell and how children respond to the dog.
"I think (Johnson) is doing a phenomenal thing," he said.

Does there exist a handheld smaller than, let's say the Palm Tungsten,
smaller in its dimensions; thinner and height and width, with just basic
functions, nothing fancy, no mp3 or camera? If not, does anyone know to
whom or how to make a recommendation that such a device be manufactured? I
remember a device a few years ago that fit in the PC card slot of a laptop.
It would be nice to have one that fit easily into a pocket.

MOUNT PLEASANT, MI — Two Mount Pleasant men have been sentenced in separate domestic assault cases occurring in 2013 on the Saginaw Chippewa Indian Reservation in Isabella County, U.S. Attorney Barbara L. McQuade announced.
Todd A. Hughes, 54, pleaded guilty Sept. 17 to domestic assault by a habitual offender and was sentenced by U.S. District Judge Thomas L. Ludington on Thursday, Jan. 9, to 26 months in prison with three years of supervised release.
Evidence at a plea hearing established that, in June, Hughes forcefully hit his girlfriend in the back with a shoe, knocking the wind out of her. Hughes was previously convicted for assaulting intimate partners, including the same victim, on four other occasions, authorities said.
Louis A. Martin pleaded guilty on Sept. 5 to domestic assault by a habitual offender and was sentenced to 30 months in prison with two years of supervised released imposed by Ludington.
Evidence at the plea hearing established that, in August, Martin struck his partner in the head causing an injury that bled. Martin was previously convicted of assaulting the same victim on three different occasions, authorities said.
Both cases were investigated by the Saginaw Chippewa Tribal Police and the FBI, and prosecuted by Assistant U.S. Attorney Roy Kranz.

"In order to move the project forward, a proposed plan for how to deal with this unforeseen condition is under development but requires further site investigation," the memo states.
The site requires further drilling and sampling to determine if the layer of soil is contaminated and to "better delineate the thickness and extent of the unsuitable material."
City staff solicited a proposal from Fleis & Vandenbrink Engineering Inc. for the work, since the company has extensive experience with the site and managed 2001 foundation demolition and debris removal for the BRA.
If approved, the $16,750 for the work would come from the Local Site Remediation Revolving Fund.

A new national security strategy, replacing one he initiated in 2010, will be unveiled next year, President Barack Obama has informed Congress.
Let's hope the 2014 strategy works better than its predecessor.
Four key goals of the 2010 plan were to strengthen the U.S. position as a world leader, end the war in Iraq, shatter the al-Qaida terrorist organization and complete recovery of the U.S. economy.
Not one of them has been a success. The economy continues to lag, with a persistent core of unemployment. Adding to the economy's long-term instability is continued runaway federal spending.
In terms of world leadership, both Russia and China have made enormous strides - while staunch U.S. allies wonder whether they can count on Washington in the future.
While most U.S. troops have been pulled out of Iraq, thousands of Americans remain there, in jeopardy as that country seems to be spiraling downward into chaos.
And both Democrat and Republican leaders in Congress warn al-Qaida may be stronger than ever.
Meanwhile, the Pentagon warns the U.S. military is not ready for another war.
Perhaps Obama has something in mind to address all four serious problems. But if so, it will have to represent a 180-degree turn from most of the ultra-liberal president's policies.
Opponents of accountability in political campaign financing may have applauded President Barack Obama's proposal last week to curb tax-exempt groups that use donations made anonymously to influence elections.
But this is Barack Obama, who seems to do nothing without an ultra-liberal political motive. Remember, this is the same Obama administration under which the Internal Revenue Service harassed some conservative organizations.
"The devil, of course, will be in the details" of the Obama plan, commented an official at the Campaign Legal Center.
He is absolutely correct about that. Members of Congress should look carefully at those details to uncover provisions inserted by the Obama administration to help organizations promoting liberal candidates, while punishing those with conservative ideals.
Democrats tempted to go along with the White House should remember that at some point, a Republican administration will take power - and may use the Obama rules against, not for, liberal organizations.

DRAMEDY: "The Savages" Fox Home Entertainment. Single disc. $27.98. Rated R.
After graduating in the late '40s from St. Peter's Prep in his native Jersey City, Philip Bosco headed off to Catholic University in Washington, D.C., to continue his studies.
Only he didn't study much.
"I was expelled for academic inefficiency," Bosco recalled in a recent phone interview, "primarily because I flunked two subjects. I took three courses. The third was gymnasium. I was just so gung-ho about theater that I spent whatever time I had, or shouldn't have had, absorbing the wonderful theater at Catholic University."
Whether absorbing theater or absorbed by it, Bosco, 77, is still at it more than a half century later, one of the more recognizable of character actors. By his estimate he's done more than 100 plays, on Broadway and off, and garnered his share of Tony nominations, including a win for "Lend Me a Tenor."
But he's a mixed-media artist, as much known for scores of TV and film roles. Just last year, he was in the cast of "Damages," an FX legal mystery series starring Glenn Close that was one of the better-reviewed freshman shows of 2007.
And then there was last year's "The Savages," a film that finds Bosco on the phone to promote its DVD release. Bosco plays Lenny Savage, who might be called a grizzled family patriarch if he had much of a family to be patriarch of.
As it happens, widower Lenny is estranged from his two adult kids, played in Oscar-nominated performances by Laura Linney and Philip Seymour Hoffman as a couple of bickering, first-class neurotics. However, the two are forced to work together to help the Alzheimer's-afflicted Lenny, even if he doesn't want their help.
Written and directed by Tamara Jenkins, who was nominated for her screenplay, "The Savages" is a decidedly unsentimental look at fierce family dynamics and dysfunction, ironically light-years away from Bosco's real life in the Bergen County borough of Haworth, a strong "Stella!" shout from the Broadway he so loves.
With his wife of some 50 years, Nancy, Bosco lives in a house that was largely paid for, he says, by his role as Cameron Diaz's father in "My Best Friend's Wedding." He proudly points out that within walking distance live six of his seven adult kids and nearly enough grandkids to cast "Annie."
"We have this wonderfully large and happy family," he says. "We're having such a delightful, pleasure-filled life. And I don't like to be away from my family."
Which is one reason why he thought twice about accepting the role in "The Savages," which was shot in New York and in Arizona. He doesn't like to travel because it might take him away from his family and because he avoids flying if he can. As well, "The Savages" was a kind of pinch-penny small film.
"I was very reluctant when I was first told about the project because it was a low-budget film and I told my agent, 'I'm getting too old to do this stuff for nothing.' But when he told me that Laura Linney and Philip Seymour Hoffman were in it, I told him to send me the script.
"We wound up having a delicious time. All the actors were excellent. And I thought the script was terribly well-conceived. I liked the idea of playing the old man, who was really a bastard to his children when they were growing up, but circumstances bring about an involvement with them in later life."
As part of his preparation for his role, Bosco had only to recall his late mother.
"I was not unfamiliar with Alzheimer's," he says. "My mom lived with us for the last 22 years of her life, and I saw the progression of her illness as she became increasingly ill. It's no picnic.
"And Tamara kept stressing before we began shooting that this would not be a goody two-shoes treatment of this kind of illness. It's real, it's honest, it's moving and it's important."
Extras on "The Savages" DVD include making-of featurettes, extended scenes and more.
Starring: Michael Stahl-David, Odette Yustman, Lizzy Caplan, Jessica Lucas, T.J. Miller, Mike Vogel, Chris Mulkey. Directed by Matt Reeves. Rating: PG-13. (Paramount) 84 mins., plus extras. $29.99.
A horror film to give you the stone willies, from its palsied, single-camera POV to its story of a frighteningly large menace laying waste to New York City. There are strong echoes of 9/11, so be forewarned. Extras: featurettes; alternate endings; deleted scenes; commentary.
"One Missed Call"
Starring: Shannyn Sossamon, Edward Burns, Azura Skye, Ana Claudia Talancon, Ray Wise, Megan Good, Margaret Cho. Directed by Eric Vallete. Rating: PG-13. (Warner) 86 mins. $28.98; $35.99 Blu-ray or DVD/HD-DVD combo.
"A cell phone rings and death is on the line." So you're told in the latest horror flick transplanted from Japan to the States. Only this pedestrian, derivative effort should have been tagged "Return to Sender."
Starting Out in the Evening"
Starring: Frank Langella, Lauren Ambrose, Lili Taylor, Adrian Lester, Jessica Hecht. Directed by Andrew Wagner. Rating: PG-13. (Lionsgate) 111 mins., plus extras. $27.98.
Langella gives an Oscar-worthy performance as an aging novelist with writer's block who seeks inspiration from an ambitious graduate student. Extras: TV promo; trailer; director's commentary.
"Charlie Wilson's War"
Starring: Tom Hanks, Julia Roberts, Philip Seymour Hoffman, Amy Adams, Ned Beatty, Emily Blunt, Ken Stott, John Slattery. Directed by Mike Nichols. Rating: R (Universal) 102 mins., plus extras. $29.98.
Hanks plays Texas congressman Charlie Wilson, a rascally playboy who becomes obsessed with helping Afghan freedom fighters defeat Russian invaders of the early '80s. If Aaron Sorkin's script veers in tone from comedy to drama and back again, the cast is stellar. Extras: featurettes.
Also in stores: "The Orphanage" (New Line); "Seance" (Lionsgate); "The Wonder Pets!: Save the Beetles" (Paramount); "Building Green" (WGBH); "Car of the Future" (WGBH); "Call of the Wild" (Allumination); "Mist: The Tale of a Sheepdog Puppy" (Allumination); "Grizzly Park" (Allumination); "Bigfoot Presents: Meteor and the Mighty Monster Trucks -- Shifting Gears" (Genius); "ToddWorld: Making New Friends, Vol. 3" (Genius); "The Best of Backyard Habitat: Volume 1" (Genius); "Black House" (Genius); "Oban Star-Racers Vol. 1" (Shout!

Hi! My name is Abigail
I am Domestic Mediumhair from Hampstead, MD
Nicknames: Abby, baby girls, purrbox
Age: 17 years old
Gender: F
Coat: short haired
Education: Abby is my little scared -y-cat. She hides all day long whether its under my bed or in a box. So when she comes out at night, any chance i get, i pull out the laser and she has a ball. since she is so scared, im proud of her for coming to me every night. One of her favorite things in water! you will rarely see her drinking water from a bowl, ya know like normal cats. you will find Abby drinking from the faucet when we turn it on her. She loves it. when she gets really happy, you can hear her purr over the tv, washing machine or whatever! as a kitten her nickname was purrbox. if she has been purring for a while she starts to drool. its pretty funny.
My favorite tricks and treats are: she is a wide-eyed playful kitty at night when the laser is out. she pounces and bounces all around the room. shes spectacular at drinking from the faucet! and Again, she is only attracted to crunchy treats. shes not a fan of the soft kind.
Where I hang out: During the day she is always hiding under a bed, in a box with blankets in the closet or in the basement in the big comfy chair. you wont see her during the day unless i bring her up. at night she is either in bed with me or my parents. her favorite spot is with me =]
My favorite grubs: Abby is a very very picky eater! it takes a lot for her to come out at dinner time to get some special treats like chicken or turkey. she only likes crunchy cat treats, the soft kind int her style. But you will only get these to her at night! On occasion, she love a good fancy feast meal.
My pet peeves: She is afraid of everything when it is daytime. If it is night and im in bed, she starts banging on the door for attention. she doesnt go to anyone except me, and thats only at night!
What I love about my owners: "My owner is very loving and most of the time accepting of my scared-ness. i love that she welcomes me into her room late at night when i feel comfortable. she knows all the special treats i like and plays with me whenever i want."
My cat hobbies: She is definitely a day-time sleeper and is up all night long bother me. shes loves her laser and chewing on her aluminum balls.
Pet motto:

Alcoa Inc. said Monday it turned a first-quarter profit on stronger sales at higher prices that were offset by a weaker dollar and higher costs for energy and raw materials.
Alcoa said business improved from a range of customers, including aerospace, automotive, commercial transportation and packaging industries. It marked the fourth consecutive quarterly profit for Alcoa as it pulled out of two difficult years hit by the recession.
The Pittsburgh aluminum manufacturer also expects business to continue to improve, reaffirming its forecast of a 12 percent increase in global aluminum demand this year.
Alcoa Chairman and CEO Klaus Kleinfeld said the company improved profitability across all business segments and said his outlook remains very positive for 2011 and beyond.
Alcoa's first-quarter net income was $308 million, or 27 cents a share, compared with a net loss of $201 million, or 20 cents a share, in the year-ago quarter.
Sales increased to $5.96 billion from $4.9 billion a year ago. That fell short of expectations from analysts, who expected sales of $6.16 billion, according to FactSet. Excluding special items, Alcoa earned 28 cents per share. That beat analysts' forecasts by a penny.
Kleinfeld's positive outlook for the rest of the year follows recent positive economic data that indicate the U.S. economy continues to recover. Last week automakers reported new cars sales in March were up 17 percent from a year ago. And the Commerce Department reported the U.S. economy grew at an annual rate of 3.1 percent in the fourth quarter, up from 2.6 percent in the third quarter.
Alcoa said average aluminum prices rose about 15 percent during the quarter, but earnings were affected by a weaker dollar against other currencies and higher raw materials costs.
Alcoa released earnings after the market closed. Shares fell 54 cents, or 3 percent, to $17.23 in after-hours trading.

DAVOS, Switzerland - The Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation will donate $10 billion over the next decade to research new vaccines and bring them to the world's poorest countries, the Microsoft co-founder and his wife said Friday.
Calling upon governments and business to also contribute, they said the money will produce higher immunization rates and aims to make sure that 90 percent of children are immunized against dangerous diseases such as diarrhea and pneumonia in poorer nations.
"We must make this the decade of vaccines," Bill Gates said in a statement. "Vaccines already save and improve millions of lives in developing countries. Innovation will make it possible to save more children than ever before."
Gates said the commitment more than doubles the $4.5 billion the foundation has given to vaccine research over the years.
The foundation said up to 7.6 million children under 5 could be saved through 2019 as a result of the donation. It also estimates that an additional 1.1 million kids would be saved if a malaria vaccine can be introduced by 2014. A tuberculosis vaccine would prevent even more deaths.
"Vaccines are a miracle," said Melinda Gates. "With just a few doses, they can prevent deadly diseases for a lifetime."
Margaret Chan, head of the World Health Organization, called the Gates contribution unprecedented and urged governments and private donors to add to the initiative.
"An additional two million deaths in children under five years could be prevented by 2015 through widespread use of new vaccines and a 10 percent increase in global vaccination coverage," said Chan.
The Gates statement said the foundation would help to dramatically reduce child mortality in the next 10 years and urged others to pitch in with research funding and other financial support for poor children.
Gates noted the announcement comes on the 10th anniversary of the foundation's partner GAVI Alliance, which he praised for its work in immunizing children against killer diseases.
"This is an amazing announcement," said GAVI CEO Julian Lob-Leyt said.

HOBOKEN— The lepre-cons are coming.
At least two St. Patrick's Day-themed bar crawls are slated for March 1 in Hoboken. The events are "Hoboken Leprecon 2014" and "Leprecon Day Hoboken Pub Crawl"

You Can't Burn A Mormon's Genitals: The Daily Nooner (EST)!
Thank God they left that all behind at some point and decided to focus on something that matters: dumbing down their program in the pursuit of ratings. From the perspective of a Cracked blogger, this was a real blessing. You know what's not really all that hilarious? The Vietnam War, Watergate and wrongful incarceration1. You know what IS hilarious? The phrase "sacred undergarments." Say what you will about credibility, dignity and journalistic integrity, but can any of those things really hold a candle to hearing a grown man say "sacred undergarments" repeatedly in a would-be serious tone?
Ordinarily this is the part where I'd go off about how Mormons are stupid and sacred undergarments are ridiculous, but as someone who gets into horrific boating accidents on a nearly constant basis, I'd really like to get my hands on a pair of those suckers. I can think of worse things than getting the occasional compliment in the locker room, too. I honestly can't remember the last time someone turned to me and said, "Hey, Ross - neat undergarments!" That makes me sad.
Maybe those Mormons are on to something. They sure seem to smile a lot, don't they?
1 Despite being on the air for 40 years, for the sake of this blog post those are the only three things that 60 Minutes has ever reported on.
