I know I shouldn't complain when summer finally comes to Chicago, but where are all the 90 and humid days? It's been a rainy one (which makes my herbs happy), and we've had maybe five days above 80 (which makes the SO, who is perpetually hot, happy). But after a particularly frigid/snowy winter in Chicago, I feel like we've been cheated out of the hot, dry summer we deserve–as if the weather should operate by some karmic code.
Maybe it will come to its senses in time for a sweltering August. Either way, this cool, colorful salad is dedicated to my dream Chicago summer–when it's so hot and sticky that all you want are chilled and icy things, when the very idea of heating the stove or oven is laughable.
You may have noticed that the photos in this post are far prettier than my normal jerry-rigged, iPhone-filtered shots. I'm now shooting my food pics with a Sony a6000 (care of the SO!). I just have to learn how to use it.
Tomato watermelon + feta salad
serves 4
1/4 watermelon, seeded and cut into 1-inch cubes
4 large tomatoes, sliced into wedges
Juice of 1 lemon (a few tablespoons)
1 teaspoon red wine vinegar
3 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
2 tablespoons chopped fresh mint
1 tablespoon minced fresh chives
4 ounces crumbled feta cheese
A handful of crumbled feta, plus a few torn mint leaves and chives, for garnish
Method: Combine the watermelon and tomatoes into a large bowl.
In a separate small bowl, combine the lemon juice, red wine vinegar, olive oil, and salt and pepper to taste. Add the mint and chives to the dressing, and whisk to combine. Taste for seasoning, and adjust as needed.
Pour the dressing over the melon and tomatoes and crumble in the feta. Toss gently to combine.
Pile the salad onto a large platter, and top with additional feta and torn herbs. Serve immediately.

The Queen Anne's County system understands that parents, families, and community members play a key role in the success of all of our students and we also understand that parent and family involvement can make a positive difference in the lives of our children. There are times however when a parent or a guardian may feel the need to contact the school system about a particular issue involving their child. The issue may be school based or system wide. The Queen Anne's County School system hopes that by working together we can resolve all concerns that you may have as a parent and that serving the best interest of your child is our highest priority,
What is an Ombudsman?
"Ombudsman" is a Swedish word meaning citizen representative or advocate. The primary responsibility of Queen Anne's County Ombudsman is to help resolve school based or system wide concerns from parents and the community
The first step is to contact the person who is closest to the issue. For example, if you have a concern about something that happened in your child's classroom we suggest that you contact the teacher directly. You can do this either by email or by phone. This is the best first step and hopefully you will be able to have your concerns resolved to your satisfaction at this level. Many problems are merely a result of a miscommunication or a misunderstanding between the school and the home. So if you and the person closest to the concern are able to discuss the matter than usually between both parties the problem can be resolved. We hope that you remember that even though you may be upset about the situation it is important to be respectful and work towards a solution. More often than communicating with then person closest to the problem will result in a satisfactory solution for both parties.
What is the next step in the process?
If you do not feel as though your concerns have been addressed by the person closest to the issue, the next step is to contact the principal. This communication can be by email or by telephone. If you explain the your concerns to the principal in a calm and respectful manner, he/she can fully understand the problem. The principal may suggest a meeting at the school to try to resolve the issue. This meeting may involve the person closest to the concern in order to fully resolve the situation.

Shutdown adding to the budget problem
State officials won't be able to calculate the shutdown's full cost until it's over, but they have quantified some of the notable losses: $1.25 million a day on the lottery, $1 million a week on state parks, $52 million a month in uncollected tax revenue that idled state auditors would have brought in. The cost of other shutdown casualties - including 100 closed road construction projects - has yet to be calculated. (AP)
The closing of the express toll lanes and Giants Ridge public golf course and convention center means more than $120,000 a week will slip away.
Plus, Minnesota expects to shell out $8.5 million a week in unemployment insurance for the laid-off state workers, according to the Department of Employment and Economic Development. And it will pay $4.7 million to cover their health insurance weekly.
Those unemployed public employees, combined with the laid-off construction workers and social services providers who lost their state funding, are expected to drain $18 million in spending from Minnesota's economy each week, said Thomas Stinson, who was the state's economist until he lost his job on Friday. (CNN)
Parents await ruling on child care assistance subsidy
Child care assistance is one of many ongoing headaches in the state government shutdown, now in its seventh day.
Twenty-six thousand Minnesota families received notice from the state that their child care subsidies would be cut off in a government shutdown. But the money comes from a pool of federal, state and county dollars. A judge could decide if those dollars can be sorted, and possibly distributed toward child care. (MPR)
Day care owners feel pain of shutdown (Saint Cloud Times).
Workers' comp claims in limbo
Without a working state government, there's no forum to resolve the disputes that embroil thousands of Minnesota workers over workers' compensation benefits.
Last year, some 13,000 workers' compensation disputes were filed with the Minnesota Department of Labor and Industry. Workers, employers and their insurance companies argue the validity of claims or attempts to change, reduce or end wage and medical benefits.
The cases are typically resolved by the department's mediators. Or they go to judges working for the Office of Administrative Hearings.
Resolution for workers' comp disputes was not ruled an essential service that should be sustained through the government shutdown. Those mediators and judges who deal with those cases have been laid off for the duration of the shutdown.
"If there's a dispute, currently we're not offering resolution services. There's no mediation or other resolution for workers' comp disputes," said James Honerman, spokesman for the Department of Labor and Industry.
Most workers' comp claims are filed with and paid by employers' workers' compensation insurance providers. The shutdown won't likely won't current claims, as long as they're not disputed.
There may be no ruling for those who are awaiting settlement of a conflict, such as with the claim filed by Shawn Dockter, who said he injured his back and neck while working for 16 years as a machinist.
Dockter expects a decision this week about an insurer's denial of his claim for past and future benefits, a claim that could easily top $100,000. (MPR)
Shutdown halts signup for angel tax credit
Start-up companies hoping to benefit from Minnesota's angel tax credit program have been unable to sign up investors because of the state government shutdown.
The program offers qualified individuals a 25 percent tax credit on their investments of at least $10,000 in Minnesota start-ups. (Star Tribune)
Shutdown results in suspended water permit for Duluth manufacturer

It's day seven of the government shutdown, and so far, there are no budget talks scheduled today.
Brief talks ended yesterday on a sour note: Gov. Mark Dayton offered two new alternative budget plans, but both raised taxes and Republican leaders rejected them as a result. House Speaker Kurt Zellers called Dayton's offers disappointing.
In other news, MPR's Tom Scheck writes that,
The chairs of the House and Senate Transportation Committees will appear before Kathleen Blatz, the Special Master assigned to hear pleas on why certain government services should continue during the shutdown. GOP Rep. Mike Beard and GOP Sen. Joe Gimse plan to request that a judge declare that the state's road construction projects are essential services and need to continue operating.
Also going before Blatz today is Polymet Mining, a Canadian company trying to open a copper-nickle mining operation near Babbitt. The company will argue that state officials working on the environmental review for the proposed mine should be allowed to go back to work.

Filed under: Cities, Counties, Roads
Yesterday, MPR's Dan Olson took a look at how the state's two most populous counties, Hennepin and Ramsey, are coping with the government shutdown.
The short story: so far, OK.
According to Olson's report, neither county has been forced to let workers go, though Hennepin County did notify about 1,200 of its 7,500 employees that they may be laid off at some point.
In both counties, road construction continues, including the Central Corridor rail line between Minneapolis and St. Paul, as do county-administered services including child protection.
Still, city and county officials are most concerned about getting a state aid payment due this month that will allow them to continue offering many services without tapping reserves.
Olson writes,
Many county services are mandated by state laws and regulations. Counties rely on two checks a year from the state, called county program aid, to help pay the costs, according to Mark Stenglein, vice chairman of the Hennepin County Board.
Stenglein says it appears likely -- but not certain -- at this point that Hennepin County's next program aid check will arrive next week. It should amount to between $10 million and 14 million, depending on budget negotiations.
"Probationary services to watch offenders, or mental health services the state mandates we have to do, and they pay for it, but it's in question now and our check is due from the state," Stenglein said. "Minus that, that leaves us only to backfill it from our own property taxes."

Gov. Mark Dayton has filed a second petition with Special Master Kathleen Blatz requesting Department of Human Services licensing reopen on July 11.
Several groups, including the Emily Program, an organization slated to open an inpatient residential eating disorder facility later this month, petitioned Blatz to recommend the health department's licensing division stay open. In the instance of the Emily Program, opening that facility would be delayed without on-site licensure review.
In the 21 page document, Dayton makes a number of other notable requests.
For instance, he would like several homelessness programs, including the Family Homelessness Prevention and Assistance Program and the Transitional Housing Program to be reconsidered as core critical services. Dayton also wants grocery delivery services for homebound elderly Minnesotans to continue.
He'd also like 16 of the Minnesota Historical Society's 400 staff members to remain on the payroll to protect valuable property and care for animals at Oliver Kelley Farm.
Still, Dayton requests that several services, including a vehicle registration system that allows auto dealers to transmit vehicle sales and registration information to the Department of Vehicle Services, remain suspended.
He's also still adamant that the state's highway rest areas should stay closed. Earlier this week, the Minnesota Truckers Association petitioned the Special Master to keep rest stops open during the shutdown so they could take their mandatory pit stops.

Politics in Minnesota has this story about the members of Dayton's staff who will remain on the payroll during a government shutdown.
According to the story, Dayton's staff of about 40 people will be trimmed to 20. Those staffers sticking around include his chief of staff Tina Smith and press secretary Katharine Tinucci.
Two employees on the list have become the subject of a Republican flier. In it, the GOP points out that Micah Pace and Michele Mersereau are Dayton's chef and housekeeper, respectively.
But it turns out that Pace, the chef, isn't being paid with taxpayer dollars during the shutdown. Rather, Dayton's paying his salary out of his own pocket, said spokeswoman Tinucci. She also pointed out that the Governor's residence is a national and state historic site, and requires regular upkeep as a result - hence the decision to keep Mersereau on the payroll.
Ramsey County Court Judge Kathleen Gearin ruled the Legislature an essential service, and so far that means no staffers have been laid off.
But all that could change if the shutdown goes on long enough, according to House Republican spokeswoman Jodi Boyne. That's because funds from the last budget cycle are being used to keep staffers on the payroll, and they are due to run out around Aug. 31.
In the Senate, no employees have been laid off, either, according to GOP spokesman Michael Brodkorb. That chamber is relying on carry over funds as well to keep staff employeed, but they'll likely need to reassess finances at the end of July, Brodkorb said.
Update: Dayton's spokeswoman, Katharine Tinucci, just emailed me to point out that the Politics in Minnesota story requires two small corrections. Micah Hines is acting counsel, not assistant chief of staff. And Nicole Wittig-Geske is not an assistant; rather she handles extraditions and executive orders, among other things, which continue during the shutdown.

On the recommendation of Special Master Kathleen Blatz, Ramsey County District Court Judge Kathleen Gearin has issued new rulings that, among other things, will allow licensing activities at the Department of Human Services to continue during a shutdown.
On July 6, Gov. Mark Dayton had asked Blatz to recommend that DHS licensing activities be deemed a core government function. The department division performs background checks for employees and volunteers who work on programs deemed critical by Gearin's earlier ruling.
In a separate document, Gearin ruled that funding for training the blind continue.
Gearin's also denied a petition put forth by the ARC Minnesota, a group that helps adults with disabilities move into their own apartments, that argued state funding for its housing-access services is critical.

Filed under: Budget
A six-person panel assembled by two former Minnesota statesmen has proposed a mix of spending cuts and tax increases to close the state's budget gap.
The group, which includes John Gunyou, who worked for former Republican Gov. Arne Carlson, and Jay Kiedrowski, who worked for former DFL Gov. Rudy Perpich, believes that $3.4 billion in spending cuts from current budget projections is in order.
The group also recommends $1.4 billion in new revenue to close the state's budget gap, including $250 million in increased human services surcharges, a tobacco tax increase of $1.29 per pack for $330 million, and a temporary 4 percent increase in income taxes for the coming biennium.
Sales taxes should be broadened and lowered in the long term, according to the plan.
The panel was convened July 5 by former Vice President Walter Mondale, former Sen. Dave Durenberger and Carlson.
In a press release, Dayton said that the committee's recommendations mirror his own budget proposals, save for one important detail.
"I respectfully differ with the Committee on their recommendation of a 4% temporary income tax surcharge on all Minnesota taxpayers," Dayton said. "My goal has consistently been to protect most Minnesotans from either an income tax increase or a property tax increase, by raising state income taxes on only the wealthiest 2% of Minnesotans."
Here's what House Speaker Kurt Zellers had to say about the plan:
"The 3rd Way Budget Commission recommendation raises income taxes on every Minnesotan. It also taxes Joe Six Pack's six pack and makes those who smoke pay more. Like Governor Dayton's offer yesterday, this again shows that it's no longer about wanting a tax increase on the rich, it's about raising whatever taxes he can in order to spend more. Families across Minnesota are already struggling to make ends meet. This is not a solution. It is a retread of failed tax and spend policies. Republicans will not raise taxes to pay for unsustainable government growth."

Jonathan Ferris, a detective who investigates high-profile white-collar crimes for the Commerce Department, says he wants his job back.
Ferris is one of seven officers who were laid off last week as a result of the government shutdown.
Last night, MPR's Laura Yuen gave us a glimpse of what Ferris would be asking for today during a hearing with Special Master Kathleen blatz.
Today, she has the full story.
Yuen writes,
The insurance-fraud division investigates financial crimes and takes down scammers and swindlers. Ferris said county and federal prosecutors often charge the targets of the investigations with felonies, including racketeering and arson.
In a most recent high-profile investigation, the state detectives uncovered an elaborate alleged mortgage fraud case that is currently being prosecuted by Hennepin County.
Ferris said government shutdown means bad news for investigations that are under way.
"An undercover investigation related to a healthcare fraud investigation has been stopped. The detective who was working in an undercover capacity is currently laid off."
Ferris argues that the investigators help protect public safety, a core function of government that has already been broadly ruled on by a Ramsey County judge. Other officers -- conservation officers, troopers and agents who enforce alcohol and gambling laws -- remain on duty through the shutdown.

On day seven of the government shutdown, there was no headway on budget talks, but lots of news coming out of Ramsey County District Court Judge Kathleen Gearin's office.
Today, she ruled that licensing operations at the Department of Human Services should continue. That means background checks for doctors and professionals who work in child care, for instance, will continue.
We also know that Gov. Mark Dayton wants Special Master Kathleen Blatz to rule homelessness programs and child care support critical after all.
The GOP is using Dayton's list of essential staff as ammunition in the battle over who's responsible for the shutdown. In addition to his chief of staff and press officer, Dayton's list includes his chef and housekeeper. But it's important to point out that Dayton's paying his chef's salary with his own money during the shutdown.
And a group of budget experts say they've got a deficit solution.
As this point, there are no budget talks scheduled for tomorrow.

A shutdown ruling last week appeared to preserve funding for state hospitals that provide treatment for people with mental illness. But at least one state facility that provides inpatient treatment has closed due to the shutdown.
The closure of Bridge House, a crisis facility in Duluth, surprised Rachel Scott. She relies on the center for outpatient services. Scott struggles with depression and short-term memory loss caused by a traumatic brain injury. She has trouble remembering to do basic household tasks and relies on a social worker at Bridge House for emotional support and practical assistance with benefits and other paperwork.
A few days before the shutdown, Scott's social worker told her the facility might have to close down. When Scott tried to call Bridge House on Friday, she was redirected to a generic state voicemail message.
MPR News called Bridge House today. The voicemail says:
"Welcome to the State of Minnesota voicemail system serving the Duluth area. Please re-enter the seven-digit number of the person you're trying to reach. Or if you're a subscriber on the system, please press the pound key. Thank you."
Scott says the facility should at least provide a voicemail message with information about other resources.
"Being routed to a state agency by an automated machine might be enough to put (some people) over the edge," she said. "I mean it's possible people could die because of this, and I think it's very serious."
A court ruling last week preserved funding for many programs that provide mental health services. It also continued funding for Medical Assistance, a state-run health insurance program that provides reimbursement for hospital and outpatient health care, including mental health treatment.
But the ruling did not include all mental health programs, creating confusion among providers and people who receive services. The closure of Bridge House highlights the complexity of the state's mental health services and the uncertain status of funding for certain programs.
Bridge House provides at least 12 crisis beds for people with severe mental illness, according to the Department of Human Services' website. It also provides outpatient services to help clients live independently.
The facility falls under the broad category of State Operated Services, a division of the Department of Human Services. The division provides services for people with mental illness, developmental disabilities, chemical dependency and traumatic brain injury at nearly 200 sites around the state.
Department spokesperson Terry Gunderson said the ruling did not preserve funding for the entire State Operated Services budget.
"Much of State Operated Services is open, but some services are not," Gunderson said in an email. "Bridge House is closed - it was not designated a critical service by the court. There is currently a petition before the court that may impact Bridge House."
The department's website may have contributed to the confusion. It includes State Operated Services department included the programs on its list of "open services," without qualifying that some services may have closed.
Here's what it says:
"State Operated Services (direct care for people with disabilities) - prioritize critical services and treatment."
Gunderson, via email, said, "The key words on that bullet are 'prioritize critical services and treatment' which is intended to show not everything is open."
The department was not immediately able to provide a list of all open and closed State Operated Services. Check back with the Shutdown Blog for updates.

Best and Worst of the 2013 Independent Spirit Awards
Worst: Predictable winners
For the third time in four years, one movie dominated the major awards. "Silver Linings Playbook" won screenplay, director, female lead and picture. Quite honestly, the fact John Hawkes beat "Playbook's" Bradley Cooper for male lead was something of a surprise. No one is saying "Playbook" isn't a fine film or worthy of kudos, but it was very clear from the reaction of the audience (who don't seem to understand the rules about figuring out Spirit winners) that "Beasts" had more support in the director and picture category. Considering what happened when "The Artist" swept a slew of honors last year, Film Independent may want to try and revisit not only their nominations process, but who gets to vote and why.

Do you have a garden? If so, you could get an outdoor enclosure that she could enter at will.
Hey there!!
Okay, so, I'm not the only one in my living area who's primal. My cat is as well. She loves getting bits and pieces of my primal meals, and she eats a non-grain kibble cat food, and likes to lick the gravy off of a grain-free wet cat food. (I don't know why she doesn't eat it, but...::Shrug?::
Here's the thing though. I think she's getting bored. No, not with the food, she loves that, but I think she needs more brain stimulation, because she's taken to yowling. I was recently dragging my laptop power supply over to me, and she was like "OOh! Thing!" and we played with it for about five minutes, then I fuzzled the crap out of her, and she's set to grooming herself.
But, I'm wondering, is there any enrichment I could offer her while I'm not here? I work a 9-5 and commute an hour and a half to get there, so I'm not here as much as I'd like to be for her. So, any ideas would be fantastical! I live with her basically in a studio (One room mate has dogs, and I'm sure she'd eat the dogs, and my Girlfriend is allergic to her, so she wouldn't be able to roam the whole house even after the dogs are gone)
Down from 275 to 250!

Some fact, a lot of fiction! Keep track of my progress there!
Do you have a garden? If so, you could get an outdoor enclosure that she could enter at will.
Those kitty climbing structures could totally be fabricated with discarded rugs and PVC tubing. Maybe make her something to climb around on/hide in, and include some dangley parts for her to play with.
My cat has also taken to yowling, but I think it's because she thinks she's alone (she does it when we've been in separate rooms for a while, or during the night).

The New York Mets have a lot of good, young pitching in their system. The current rotation at the major league level has two of them already in it, Jon Niese and Dillon Gee.
The farm system has names like Matt Harvey, Jenrry Mejia and Zack Wheeler among the mix for the future. There is one name that is in the present, though, that Mets fan would rather do without. That name is Mike Pelfrey.
Pelfrey was drafted in 2006 and has posted some not-so-great numbers in his tenure so far. He has a 4.36 ERA, a 1.45 WHIP and a 49-51 record. In other words, he has been far from effective.
When Terry Collins took over as manager this past offseason, he proclaimed Pelfrey to be the "staff ace" in the absence of Johan Santana.
The pressure proved to be too great for the fragile psyche of the pitcher and has resulted in one of his worst seasons yet. He is 6-10 with a large 4.61 ERA. He has been on the losing end or no-decision end of too many games for this team this year. The Mets and their fans are beginning to tire of the ineffectiveness.
They have tried to help him fix his mechanics. They have helped him get a sports psychologist. They have done everything they can to help Pelfrey reach his potential. The only option that remains for the organization is to trade him. This seems to be the best option for both sides, in fact.
There are five essential reasons why.

The menswear inspired shoes are quirky cool and require lots of confidence. Find the perfect pair for you with the Young Sophisticates guide. C'mon, you know you want to try this trend.
Around $150: Charles Philip "Sylvie" Tassel Suede Loafers give off a prep school meets eclectic style vibe. The royal blue tassel really adds a pop of color to the otherwise bison brown suede shoe, resulting in the right amount of panache.
Here's the guide to Slippers/Loafers for Every Budget:
FREE: The leopard print loafers (pictured at the end of the post) could be yours for free! Yes, really - if you win the Matt Bernson Shoe Giveaway. But, hurry, you only have a few days left to enter. Details on how to enter here. (Note: this pair of Matt Bernson loafers retails for $165.)
Around $25: Lulu's Black Velvet Loafers are anything but basic. At this price, you can try the trend without splurging. And, the black velvet loafers will go with everything!
Under $50: Urban Outfitters Woven Loafers feel unique, and will instantly give your outfit a not-too-precious look. Add a dose of sartorial style
to an otherwise basic everyday t-shirt & jeans combo. P.S., the tassel detail on the shoe is awesome.

Designer: Olivia Palermo is wearing Stubbs & Wooten slippers in the photo on the left. Stubbs & Wooten Louie Burgundy V are extremely luxe-looking. The deep, rich burgundy color of the shoe is on trend for fall. You really can't go wrong with a dazzling pair from Stubbs & Wooten - as you can see from the shoes pictured above.
When you're trying to figure out how to style your loafers, I recommend substituting the loafers for your usual ballerina flats. Skinny black cigarette pants work well with velvet loafers. Or, wear a loose fitting blouse with tight, skinny jeans - velvet loafers look fantastic when paired with denim.

Participating in the 2014 Overnight as a member of a team is one of the best ways to keep yourself motivated - not just in training and fundraising, but also that extra support or push you might occasionally need to keep going. Teams are also a wonderful way to become involved in the Overnight Community and meet new people or strengthen the bonds within your existing network. You can even ask your teammates to invite others to join the team; remember, there's strength in numbers. By bringing new people to the cause, you're creating ambassadors who in turn can spread awareness about the importance of our mission.
How Does Team Fundraising Work?
Team members are often a great help to your fundraising campaign. In fact, we often find that event participants who are on a team raise more donations individually than those without a team to support them. Why? They have the benefit of their team members' advice and encouragement and the ability to collaborate on hosting a variety of group events for joint fundraising efforts.
There are two important things to note about fundraising when you're on a team:
Team Captains have the power to inspire your teammates to go the distance, to fundraise and to walk more miles than they ever imagined. Your team can be any group of people of any number. It might be a naturally formed group, like co-workers, neighbors, or families. It could be a group of people with something in common, or nothing in common, that wanted to form a team. Maybe you're life-long friends or maybe you've never met face-to-face. You are the unifier, bringing together groups of people from all walks of life in support of a single mission: preventing suicide.
**If you're a team captain willing to take on "solos," a solo walker looking to participate with a great group of people, or if you're just looking to connect with other walkers (team or individual) prior to the 2014 Out of the Darkness Overnight, please contact email@example.com or 888-TheOvernight (888-843-6837).**
If you see a team you'd like to join, would like more information, or have any questions about teams, please contact the Teams Coordinator, Erin Kenny, at email@example.com or call 888-843-6837.
When registering for the Overnight online, choose the "Join A Team" option. A drop-down menu will appear with a list of current teams; just choose the one you're looking for. There's also a link option to "Create a New Team" - just click on this and fill in the necessary information. If you're registering at an Introduction Meeting or are having trouble with the online form, call your Walker Coach or the Overnight Office at 888-TheOvernight (888-843-6837).
You can help to grow and strengthen the Overnight Community. We have many Walkers signing on to walk "solo" (though of course no one is ever really alone during the Overnight) who would love to walk as part of a team. We also have many great team leaders who are looking expand their groups, and we can help to put you all together.
As diverse a group as the Overnight Community might be, we all have something in common: a strong desire to improve and save the lives of those affected by suicide and depression. That's a very powerful bond.
Contact us at 888-TheOvernight (888-843-6837) or email@example.com and we will be happy to host an exclusive phone information meeting for members of your group. These meetings are a great chance to learn all about the Overnight and how it helps support those affected by suicide and depression as well as get all of your questions answered!

One of Brandon Prust's ribs separated from its cartilage. That's painful enough.
Then, the Montreal Canadiens winger pushed the rib back into place—himself.
"FAT WALRUS:" The playoff quote Hall of Fame
That news comes from Dave Stubbs of the Montreal Gazette. Prust and the Canadiens' season ended on Thursday night, when the Ottawa Senators eliminated them in Game 5 of their first-round playoff series.
Prust's injury occurred in overtime Game 4. He didn't play in Game 5.
In his first season with the Habs, Prust, 27, had five goals and nine assists, and brought some needed size and physicality to the lineup. Besides the rib story, he also gave the quote of the playoffs so far.

Placement in the Latin Jazz Ensemble is by audition only. For more information, please contact Carlos McCoy at: firstname.lastname@example.com

I have never actually made them myself, but apparently they do go viscous.
Moroccan Style Salt Preserved Lemons
I made some preserved lemons a few weeks ago - after 3 weeks they smelled divine and I put them in the fridge.
Today, I took some out to use - and the liquid they are in - the brine - has gone sort of viscous. Oily almost. I took some out, threw away the pulp and used it - it tasted OK. But does the brine normally go viscous or has it gone off?
If it is NOT supposed to be like this, can I remove the lemons, discard the pulp, rinse the rinds and then cover them with olive oil - or ought I to bin the lot and start again?
I'm loth to throw it out as the number of lemons and the sea salt came to quite a sum of money! But neither do I want to poison myself or guests.....
I have never actually made them myself, but apparently they do go viscous.
Moroccan Style Salt Preserved Lemons
From Animord's link, for those who don't want to click through and read:
Keep in the refrigerator. The lemons may develop a white film on the surface and the liquid will become viscous. This is as it should be. When ready to use a lemon, remove the lemon from the jar using something non-reactive and clean and rinse off the lemon you are using.
Preserved lemons keep several months in the refrigerator.

Our bodies crave real food. We remain hungry as long as we refuse to eat real food, no matter how much junk we stuff into our stomachs. ~J. Stanton
Thanks! The ones I used tasted ace - in a Moroccan type ratatouille. Usual ratatouille ingredients - red pepper, zucchini, eggplants, tomatoes, all tossed in olive oil and lots of coarsely ground cumin, roasted in oven until soft and then a handful of chopped mint, handful of chopped basil and a handful of chopped preserved lemon stirred in.
Divine! It was something I ate in Tangier and wanted to reproduce - it wasn't exact but close. I wonder if the original had chopped anchovy in it?

In frequency switching mode the telescope remains at a fixed position and data is accumulated while the center of the receiver passband is switched between signal and offset frequencies separated by FOFF (MHz), at a switch rate of CPER (seconds). Data accumulated at the offset frequency is subtracted from the signal frequency data before storage as a frequency switched scan; the SPA data reduction command 'FOLD' can be then used to rectify and shift the offset to lie on top of the signal passband.
The advantage of frequency switched over position switched observations are that signal photons are collected during the entire integration leading to a typical 2 gain in S/N for a fixed scan integration time, and telescope switching overhead is eliminated. The disadvantage of frequency switching is its relatively limited range ( 30 MHz). For SEQUOIA, it is recommended to switch less than 10 MHz due to gain instabilities within the frontend system at different frequencies. Also, due to an impedance mismatch between the SEQUOIA dewar and IF processor, one can expect a very large baseline ripple (27 MHz) corresponding to the length of the cable wrap. This does not compromise spectra with narrow ( 8 km/s but may require a higher order baseline subtraction in the processing of the data.
The current state of the frequency switching routine parameters is displayed by typing FS , and the frequency switching hardware is initiated by typing FSON. See Table 4.4 for keywords and typical parameter values. As in other data-taking routines, the observation will not proceed unless all error conditions are absent. Please leave frequency switching under computer control. The programs will temporarily stop the frequency switching when data is stored on disk, and then automatically turn it back on. Do not stop an FS observation while it is storing data.
When exiting FS observing mode you must type FSOFF to stop the frequency switching hardware, else signals sent to the computer when switching is on will interfere with further observations.

Pete is assigned to lead a Fort McGee platoon that includes Derrick and Randy and they're a motley crew; the Bad News Bears of Army units. But they try, they have heart and they bond in the process of a military exercise against some Italians.
Created by Kevin Biegel, co-creator of "Cougar Town," the humor in "Enlisted" is less gonzo than in his previous series. But "Enlisted" is often still funny and the bond among the brothers is sweet without getting too cloying.
It's a well cast show. The actors who play brothers actually look like they could be related. Mr. Young, in particular, stands out as the over-enthusiastic, youngest of the three.
Future episodes offer more dramatic moments, including the development of a possible romantic relationship between Pete and Jill (Angelique Cabral), another platoon leader. And actor Keith David co-stars as Command Sgt. Maj. Cody, who gets out from behind his desk in the Jan. 24 "Prank War" episode.
But given its time slot, don't get too attached to "Enlisted;" it's likely to be honorably discharged sooner rather than later.

When you have the skills to provide the best massages in town, it is a good idea that you do not let anything stand in your way. Your clients are expecting for you to be available to meet their needs. If you are unable to perform massages because your license has expired, they may just go to the next massage therapist instead. You can renew your massage license with relative ease. The only thing that you will need is to make sure that you are legal in the state. You will need to check with your state to find out what their massage therapy license requirements are.
Most people will have a national license to use for their license. In this case you will need to follow the rules of the NCBTMB in order to make sure that you have all of the required continuing education courses. This will be in addition to the fees you will need in order to get the license that you need to stay legal. Keep in mind the national license is not a replacement for the state license.
At our list of state license requirements, you can find links to your state's website. You will be able to get an overview of all of the recent information which is necessary on the state's site. In most cases you will need to complete continuing education classes in order to make sure that you are staying in touch with the newest innovations in massage therapy as well as making sure that you are up to date on what is required in your state in terms of sanitation and more.
Staying licensed is important for you to be able to stay employed and to stay out of trouble with the state. If you care about your job and want to avoid fees, it is important that you stay up with your license. This is the only way that you will be able to keep working without having any violations that will end up costing you a lot of money in the end. Now, you can get out there and provide your guests the best possible experience they can afford.

The Unexpected Benefit of a Super-Fussy BabyDevan McGuinness
Silver is 7 weeks old and the love of my life. I can't imagine not having him here — even through the sleep-deprivation, I can see that. When I welcomed him into the world just a short time ago, I didn't think there would be any more parenting surprises in my future. He certainly wasn't my first baby and this wasn't my first go at the postpartum and newborn stage.
I was convinced it was going to be smooth-sailing. I mean, I had a very challenging pregnancy, so certainly he was going to be the most chill baby ever. Well, that's what I thought.
I was wrong. Silver, while majorly adorable, is also majorly challenging. Between the colic, fussiness, crying and intense crankiness if he's not being held and breathed on, rocked and always in motion, it's been an interesting month-and-a-half trying to get on some sort of routine in life.
I'm not expecting to get any sleep or have any predictability in life or anything like that, but I didn't expect it to be this different than my other three children. I guess when they say each baby is different, they mean it.
I don't like to complain and certainly am not. But when things get challenging and you're about to lose your mind because all you can focus on are the negative things — you've got to look for the positives wherever you can find them.
Yesterday, I was sitting in my living room at the end of the day — my mom was here holding Silver so I could work because otherwise he would be on me, fussing. I got up off the couch, walked up the stairs to tuck the older kids in and all I could feel was an achy left arm and calf muscles that felt like they were on fire.
I didn't exercise all day so I had no idea why I was aching so much — hoping that I wasn't getting sick, yet realizing it was totally possible. Something about the lowered immune system I am prone to since I never sleep — like, ever. I pondered over the aches and tucked my babies in bed carefully, so as not make these aches worse. Then I walked downstairs to see my mom holding Silver in her arms and rocking him on my non-rocking couch and it all became so clear.
My legs, arms, and shoulders were aching because I was exercising, just not in any traditional type of way. For the past seven weeks, I have been holding Silver the same way I saw my mom doing so — rocking and holding and working the muscles in my arm, shoulder, and legs the whole time.
Having a newborn with colic who wants to be held all.the.time has me exercising when I didn't even realize it. I wonder if that has played into me being 45 pounds lighter at seven weeks postpartum than before I got pregnant (though my 38-week long stint of hyperemesis gravidarum during pregnancy had me losing 20 pounds).
Hello, unexpected bonus!
Colic — the unexpected exercise may seem like a small positive and little trade-off, but I've got to hold on to something!
Hey, you've got to look at the positives, no matter how small, when you're up all night — right?

KAHULUI - Dave Gleason, the only general manager in the 16-year history of The Dunes at Maui Lani golf course, has retired after a 42-year golf career on the Valley Isle.
"Retirement," Gleason said with a smile over lunch in the Dunes' clubhouse recently. "When you get into golf, golf is a seven-day (a week), everyday-of-the-year operation. Even though you think you are going to take the day off, something always pops up, you are always concerned about something, so time to wind back after 42 years in the business."
Gleason was the tournament chairman of the Kaanapali Classic on the PGA Champions Tour for 10 years, is a PGA of America member and was Golf Professional of the Year in Hawaii in 2001.

He is a former president of the Amfac Golf Division, which operated the Kaanapali Golf Courses and the Waikele Golf Club on Oahu. Gleason is also the former GM of the Maui Country Club and was director of golf at Kuilima Resort on Oahu, now known as Turtle Bay.
Russell Dooge recently took over as GM at The Dunes.
"Excited and scared in the same way," Dooge said of following Gleason.
Dooge was a longtime superintendent for MMK Maui, which runs the King Kamehameha and Kahili golf clubs in Waikapu and before that held the same position for two years at the Kapalua Village Course. He has held similar positions on Lanai and Molokai over a four-decade career.
"I'm going to wear a different hat now," Dooge said. "Being in the golf maintenance for 40 years, it's all about spending money.
"Now, I have to worry about making money. I'm excited, I know most of the staff members here - it is just going to be a new challenge."
Gleason said he will continue to work for the real estate and development side of Maui Lani.
"I have been at Wailea in the early 1970s, Maui Country Club, a couple years on Oahu at Turtle Bay, Kaanapali for 18 years and here for 16," he said. "Very lucky - it was a fabulous, fabulous stretch."
Gleason said he is passing the torch to the right man in Dooge.
"It's time for me to look at the operation from another view," Gleason said. "Russ is going to have the full gamut of responsibilities and I'm sure he will do very well. We're proud of this place - we've got a great facility."
Gleason singled out Dunes designer Robin Nelson and owner Bill Mills as making his time at The Dunes special.
"It has been nice, it has been great, working with guys like that," Gleason said.
Dooge, who graduated from the University of Hawaii in 1975 with a bachelor's degree in horticulture technology, knows he has a tough act to follow.
"Dave built this place," he said. "Now, I have to do my best to keep it going."

I am an unapologetic Ohio State Buckeyes fan, and look forward to cheering the 11 warriors this season, despite the NCAA's sanctions that include a bowl ban and Big Ten championship ineligibility for this season. The new Urban Meyer era promises to be filled with thrills, big victories and good times for our Buckeyes. While we cheer the Scarlet and Gray, however, it would be wise to remember the plight of the Nittany Lions.

UNB Report
As the cost of higher education in private universities in the capital is increasing day by day, the government is thinking of introducing a strict law to check their profit motive apart from a plan to approve private universities only at local level.
Students from distant areas have to bear huge expenses in the Dhaka-based private universities while the maintenance cost of the universities is also going up to a great extent due to higher rate of lands in the city, Education Minister Nurul Islam Nahid told.
Referring to the increasing trend of tuition fees in private universities, he said the government has repeatedly cautioned the authorities concerned in this regard and is planning to formulate a law to rein in the profit motive.
Before taking steps against the errant universities, the Education Minister said, they will try to convince the authorities concerned not to consider their institutions as profit machines.
He added that the maintenance cost of private universities in the capital is going up due to the increasing land price.
Besides, the city's perennial traffic congestion has prompted the government to go for the option of setting up new universities at district and upazila levels instead of cramming them into the capital, he said.
Nahid observed that the benefits of having private universities at local levels are twofold -- it will reduce the maintenance cost and facilitate easy access of poor students to higher education at lower costs.
Mentioning that there is no private university in many upazilas and districts outside Dhaka, he said the government will give importance to opening new universities at local level.
Applications seeking approval for setting up private universities at local levels will be prioritized, the Education Minister added.
He also noted that no fresh approval will be given to any private university in the capital as many private universities are operating there.
Nahid said the number of private universities in the country is two times higher than that of public universities. "About 61 percent of the university students are from private universities."
Asked whether the government will provide financial support to the private universities, he answered in the negative, but noted that they will take steps to make sure that the authorities cannot use the universities as profit-making institutions.
Echoing Nahid, UGC chairman Prof AK Azad Chowdhury said once the private universities are set up at villages and district levels, students from lower class families will be able to study at low cost. "Currently, a private university student has to spend about Tk 70,000-80,000 a year as educational expenses."
Prof Nazrul Islam, a former UGC chairman, said some 350 colleges providing honors courses have been set up across the country to provide higher education to the students of general families.
The colleges should be modified and qualified teachers should be appointed there to ensure quality education for the students.
Terming the number of private universities in the city 'excess', Nahid recommended slashing down the figure to ensure quality education.
Sources at the Education Ministry said there are 36 public universities across the country, including five in the capital while the number of private universities in the country is 79.

Released: 8 Jan 1999
by Linda D. Kozaryn
American Forces Press Service
WASHINGTON (AFPN) -- In the fourth strike against Iraqi targets in 11 days, U.S. air forces in the northern no-fly zone over Iraq fired upon an Iraqi mobile missile system.
Defense officials said a U .S. Air Force F-16CJ and an accompanying Marine Corps EA-6B picked up radar signals from a Roland mobile missile-system at about 3 a.m. EST Jan. 7. The F-16CJ launched a high-speed, anti-radiation missile at the radar and then left the area.
"We do not have a picture of what happened to the Roland, but the radar stopped beaming at precisely the time the HARM was to impact the radar, so we assume it was a hit," said Pentagon Spokesman Ken Bacon. Photographs could not be taken because of cloud cover in the area, he added.
The same day, Bacon noted, two Iraqi planes violated the southern no-fly zones. Two MiG-21s darted into the no-fly zone for a very brief period of time at a time when U.S. aircraft were not in the area," he said. One stayed seven minutes, the other four.
U.S. fighter jets fired on Iraqi MiG-25s in the southern no fly zone two days earlier, Jan. 5. U.S. aircraft fired on Iraqi surface-to-air missile sites in the southern zone on Dec. 28 and 30.
Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff Army Gen. Hugh Shelton, appearing before the Senate Armed Services Committee Jan. 6, called these continuing violations "militarily insignificant." Bacon supported Shelton's assessment.
For the past two weeks, Bacon explained, Iraq has been making "timid, cheat-and-retreat" incursions into the restricted zones.
"That's basically the pattern we're seeing day in and day out. There have been some longer violations. Typically, they take place when U.S. planes are not in the box.
"I don't know if these are being done as a way to make Saddam's pilots feel good that they're able to tweak our nose or whether they're doing it to give them practice flying over areas they haven't been able to fly over since 1992," Bacon remarked.
Asked how long the United States will put up with this constant testing, Bacon replied, "You can turn that question around and ask, 'How long will Iraq be content to see its assets eliminated by our missiles, because that's exactly what's happening.'"
The recent strikes demonstrate that the United States will continue to protect its forces and the no-fly zones by whatever means necessary, Bacon said.
"We've shown in December (during Operation Desert Fox) and before that we can strike with speed, force and surprise at a time of our choosing," he said. "Should the circumstances arise, we can respond in a variety of ways." ."

September 5, 2009, 08:32 PM
What information can you give me on the Sako mannlicher carbine - Long action (magnum). What do they weigh? How do they handle? Do they shoot well with the full stock? All around opinion. Thanks.

Here's a tidbit of pics and info. Perhaps the Sako website will give you more.
September 5, 2009, 09:24 PM
They made them in long and short actions. I love the way mine in .308 handles, and of course, it's a Sako, so it shoots well. I like the look of full length stocks, but some don't.
September 5, 2009, 09:49 PM
They adult caliber models all have heavy barrels, and shoot very well. The stock is too piece, with the seperation under the barrel band, so there is no chance of a warped stock ever putting pressure on the barrel.
The early ones are have angular shaped stocks, the L691 has a more rounded shape (as well as nicer sights).

I've got a Salo AIII in 30-06 and it is a good shooting rifle within the limitations of a full stocked hunting rifle. It will generally keep 3 180 gr. SST's within 1-1.25" at 100 yards.
September 8, 2009, 12:17 AM
Mine is also an AIII like browningguy's except in 270. I bought it used at a good price - good price because it wouldn't shoot under 4" at 100 yds. Since the barrel was making 100% contact with the stock, I bought a semi-finished stock from Richard's, and pillar and glass bedded the action, free floated and bedded the barrel channel, and it still wouldn't shoot under 3". I marked the lugs, and only one lug - and on only one spot - was bearing on the receiver. Broke out the Go, No-go gauges, and the Go gauge wouldn't even chamber. I was able to lap both lugs to get about 80% contact without the No-go gauge being able to chamber. I recrowned the barrel, and headed to the range. Finally, groups under 3/4". Granted this rifle should have never left the factory as it did, but I probably couldn't have purchased it at such a cheap price if it shot well.
