Secrets of the Lost City of Z on CBS's Sunday Morning

I was on CBS's Sunday Morning on Sunday the 21st. Here's an excerpt from the conversation:
"There was, by the end, a maniacal quality to him," said Grann. "And I think with obsession, there are kind of two qualities about it: there is the fruits of obsession, which can lead to wonderful discoveries - Fawcett made many interesting discoveries - but there could also be a lethal quality to obsession, and in this case, there really was."
And you can read the rest at CBS
"Hail, Britain's Indiana Jones of the Amazon"
date: Jan 07, 2010 - Ben Macintyre, Times London
Great piece in The Times on Fawcett and recent discoveries in the Amazon:
Recent archaeological research, using satellite imagery and radar, has uncovered convincing proof of large pre-Columbian settlements in the very places where Fawcett searched and vanished: not merely houses, but moats, roads, bridges, avenues and squares laid out with geometric precision.
The latest discovery, reported in the journal Antiquity, has found more than 200 earthworks in the upper Amazon basin, some built in the 13th century but others dating back two centuries before Christ.
Sadly, deforestation of the Amazon is partly responsible for the discoveries. Read the rest of the article here: "Hail, Britain's Indiana Jones of the Amazon"

ARLINGTON, Texas (ABP) — A prominent African-American Baptist pastor says the Southern Baptist Convention has not kept a promise made in 1995 to "eradicate racism in all its forms from Southern Baptist life and ministry."
Dwight McKissic, pastor of Cornerstone Baptist Church in Arlington, Texas, released an article posted on his blog to media April 8 calling on the convention to repent "for passive and intentional acts of racism in SBC life" that have occurred since the SBC adopted a historic resolution on its 150th anniversary apologizing to African-Americans for the convention's racist past.
McKissic, once a rising star in denominational life until he disagreed publicly with influential leaders over a decision to stop appointing missionaries that use a "private prayer language," said most systemic, institutional and individual racism in SBC life is "passive, not intentional."
For example, he said, a black member was not added to a Great Commission Task Force appointed last summer until it was pointed out that the blue-ribbon group studying denominational effectiveness ought to include an African-American perspective.
McKissic said the oversight wasn't intentional but is symptomatic of a problem that convention leaders must address if they are serious about reaching the world for Christ.
McKissic said for years he has asked many black Baptist and evangelical pastor friends who agree with the SBC's doctrinal stance why they won't join. The answer that comes back, he said, is because the denomination is viewed as "Southern and racial." By "racial," and not "racist," he said, they mean that "the DNA of the SBC is white, and geographically and culturally Southern oriented."
"Therefore, it cannot comfortably or willingly accommodate or assimilate as equals, African-American Baptists' input, involvement and influence," he said. "For years I've disagreed with my friends' analysis. But I've since reached the conclusion, they are right."
Fifteen years after resolving to "apologize to all African Americans for condoning and/or perpetuating individual and systemic racism in our lifetime" and to "genuinely repent of racism of which we have been guilty, whether consciously or unconsciously," McKissic said, there has not been one African American hired as the chief executive of any SBC entity. He said he is praying that will soon change, as searches are in progress for leaders of both of the SBC's mission boards and Executive Committee.
As an African American attending SBC meetings, McKissic said he often sees and hears things that he thinks are racially insensitive that seem to go either unnoticed or unchallenged by white leaders.
At a recent state evangelism conference, for example, an evangelist compared President Obama to a wicked king from the Old Testament and prayed with the audience for the president's salvation and that he be "providentially" removed from office if he does not repent.
"The picture of hundreds of Anglo Southern Baptists on their knees praying that God 'providentially' remove the first African-American president of the United States from office is not a pretty picture to African-American Southern Baptists or bibliocentric fair-minded Americans of any color," McKissic said.
He called it "a horrible witness to the world and a poor testimony of Southern Baptists" and urged leaders of both the SBC and the Southern Baptists of Texas Convention to publicly repudiate the remarks.
Contacted April 8, SBC President Johnny Hunt declined to comment. Jim Richards, executive director of the SBTC, said his convention "asks all followers of Christ to pray for God's guidance and protection" on Obama and any statement to the contrary "does not reflect the heart of the SBTC."
McKissic also cited a 2009 sermon preached at a large Southern Baptist church by a well-known figure who has spoken at several national meetings of Southern Baptists. The speaker prompted approving laughter from the crowd, McKissic said, with lines stereotyping black church services — including that the sermon doesn't start before 1 p.m. and they take up "12 offerings."
"You go to a black church, gentlemen, you are not going to have on a blue suit — you are going to have blue shoes to match, and your handkerchief is going to match your tie, and your whole outfit is going to match your car," McKissic quoted from the sermon. "It's beautiful. And ladies: when we talk about black church, we're talking about hats. And I'm not just talking Easter hats as some of you may wear. I'm talking about satellite-dish hats — big enough to receive a signal, with a curtain rod going down the front that you can just pull the curtain across."
McKissic said in 36 years of preaching at black churches, he has never witnessed what the speaker described.
"If I stated that white preachers preached in Hawaiian shirts and encouraged married couples in their churches to have sex seven straight days, and wore toupees — that may be true in isolated cases, but it would be unfair, inaccurate and racially stereotypical, without foundation, for to me make such a claim."
Sing Oldham, vice president for convention relations at the SBC Executive Committee, said April 8 that the convention continues to move in the direction of reconciliation begun with the 1995 resolution and has made "significant gains" in outreach to ethnic minorities.
Oldham said a work group of the Executive Committee is studying a motion referred by the convention in 2009 to study ways to more actively involve ethnic churches and ethnic leaders in serving the needs of the SBC.
He said McKissic's article "will certainly be a resource this work group may want to consider when it begins to discuss potential strategies it may recommend to the Executive Committee."

Exactly. Take the two best players out of any teams lineup and there not gonna be very good. Then try taking out it's top 4 centers, who 2 of them are top 15 players in the world. I don't see how people are shocked when we lose a game like this. We have zero offense through the middle. By the end of the game we had a guy who has 0 career goals playing second line center. I'm sorry but if the wings make the playoffs Babcock should be given the jack Adams on the spot. If this team adds a decent top 4 d-man and is fully healthy I believe they can beat anyone in the east in a 7 game series. But that's my opinion
Agreed but when are we ever going to get to that point.. I would love it if we got as healthy as we were in the last 10 games of the reg season last year and the playoffs. Until we see what this team is like with a full lineup we will never know how good they are.

Gretna officials are debating how to handle a slight budget surplus generated by an unexpected uptick in the city's sales tax revenue for the last nine months of 2010.
Sales tax revenues from March through December were nearly 10 percent higher than the figures from the same period in 2009, and roughly 13 percent higher than what the city expected to collect for the entire fiscal year, according to city budget documents.
Gretna collected $5.39 million in sales taxes during the nine-month period, compared to $4.9 during the same period in 2009. The city only budgeted $4.8 million in sales tax revenue for the 2010-2011 fiscal year, Harris said. But because the city has had some unexpected expenses, the total surplus is roughly $190,000 .
"There is a trend of it being upward," Harris said. "We're slightly ahead."
Several Gretna City Council members said the first priority for the surplus should be repaying special revenue funds that were raided by the general fund to balance the budget. For years, Gretna used "loans" from special revenue funds to offset the drain on the general fund from subsidizng the sewer and water plants.
Councilwoman Belinda Constant said those special revenue funds should be "made whole" before the city considers Harris' suggestion of creating a a reserve fund. At one point, the city owed roughly $2.5 million to the street lighting, fire protection and ambulance accounts, among others.
Harris said the city has already begun paying back those special revenue funds thanks to increased revenue at the water and sewer plants due to the substantial rate increases approved by the council last year. The rate increases eliminated the need for subsidies, and allowed the water and sewer funds to begin paying back the general fund, which could in turn repay the special revenue funds.
"That's where the money has to go because that's where the money was sucked from," Harris said. He added that the city needs to establish a dedicated reserve to protect against lean times in the future, and sales tax overages are a good vehicle to fund that reserve.
The council agreed that a reserve was needed, but said the city's prior debts should be handled first.
Gretna's sales tax increase is in line with a parishwide increase from 2009 to 2010. Jefferson Parish as a whole had a $2.1 million increase in sales tax revenue through November 2010 compared to the same period in 2009.
Harris said that if the trend continues, he can prepare a more optimistic budget when discussions begin in March.
"If it does continue, we will be able to up our projections for next fiscal year," Harris said.

Sounds good to me.
Hi fellow groks,
in efforts to save money and time, I made a huge batch of chicken stew loaded with veggies, chicken, coconut milk and nuts. Delicious!
However, I made so much that I've been eating it for breakfast, just so it doesn't go to waste.
I always thought eating such a big meal in the would result in lethargy and drowsiness, but I'm doing good.
Is this totally ok? Do others do this?
Sounds good to me.

Feel free to read and/or comment, but don't expect me to listen.
Distance walked 2012: 321 kms as of June 15.
I always eat 'real food' for breakfast. It's my largest meal of the day, and I feel great eating this way.
Freeze some?
Why wouldn't it be? Breakfast isn't a magical meal that requires bacon and eggs. I eat the same foods pretty much regardless of the time of day most of the time.
Today I will: Eat food, not poison. Plan for success, not settle for failure. Live my real life, not a virtual one. Move and grow, not sit and die.
My Primal Journal
Freeze some, I will! Thanks for the advice. I'm new to the whole freezing my food thing.
Regarding the meat for breakfast topic - some people suggest that in order to manage your energy levels, you should go for easily digestable foods in the morning, therefore abstain from fiber/fat and go the heavy meals later in the day. Meats are more taxing on the digestion system - logically resulting in lower energy levels.
In terms of energy - I felt good after eating stew for breakfast.
But for future reference, I think I'll stick the my good ol' smoothy - and go for the heavier meals later in the day.
dinner leftovers are my typical breakfast food. I've always like a more savory breakfast. If we don't have leftovers I settle for more traditional b'fast foods like eggs but I'm always more satisfied with meat and veggies, esp beef, for breakfast.
Heather and the hounds - Make a Fast Friend, Adopt a Greyhound!
Yuh, I'll echo other's sentiments. At this point, the main distinction between breakfast and dinner (I skip lunch) is that I fry up 3-4 eggs with my meat and veggies in the morning and fry up sweet potatoes or plantains with my meat and veggies for dinner. The meat and veggies are almost always left overs from dinners and/or cooking marathons on the weekend.
When I have the time and inclination, I'll try to be a bit more creative on the weekends, but for the most part my breakfast and dinners look almost identical.

AS FAR as the elders of Shetland are concerned, the "wind dogs" offer a more reliable prediction of the following day's weather than the likes of television forecasters Heather Reid or Sian Lloyd.
Part of the islands' rich weather lore, the phrase denotes a fragment of a rainbow. According to legend, should one appear in front of the sun, tomorrow will be fine. On the other hand, if a wind dog is behind it, islanders should prepare for rain.
"People like me who were born and brought up here are shaped by the weather," said Lawrence Tulloch, a former lighthouse keeper on Muckle Flugga, the most northerly rock of the British Isles, and no stranger to the extremities of weather on Shetland.
He said: "You'll never find a farmer or a fisherman who isn't an amateur weatherman. They tend to look at the television forecasts with derision, because the weather's so unpredictable.
"Tourists sometimes ask me what the summer was like up here. I tell them it was on a Tuesday."
Mr Tulloch, 64, insists the old weather lore is still in vogue. But the credibility of wind dogs and their like may soon be tested by modern science.
Shetland Islands Council is today expected to sanction a campaign it hopes will bring to an end the archipelago's time spent in meteorological limbo.
Encouraged by what it regards as a new political climate in Holyrood, the local authority is pressing for inclusion in the Met Office's 13-strong national weather radar network. At present, Shetland is the only area of the UK not in range of the radars. The devices track volatile, unpredictable weather fronts and are particularly accurate at providing continuous, real-time information on projected rainfall.
The nearest radar, Druim a'Starraig, is on Stornoway, and extends only as far as Fair Isle, 25 miles south-west of Sumburgh Head. Instead, satellite imagery is relied upon.
The council believes the SNP administration will be sympathetic to its cause. Its campaign is rapidly gaining support, with the likes of Tavish Scott, Shetland's MSP, and key members of the business community signed up.
The council's harbour board will first ask the Scottish Government to put pressure on the Met Office to erect a radar at Fitfull Head or Saxa Vord.
Jim Dickson, the council's general manager of ports and harbours, said there was little observable data about weather conditions in Shetland.
"To the north and west of Shetland, there is little in the way of observation sites, and a polar low can descend with little or no warning," he said
Such sudden depressions, Mr Dickson warned, were particularly dangerous for Shetland, given its status as home to Europe's largest oil port, as well as offshore installations and a marine industry upon which the local economy was increasingly reliant.
A spokesman for the Met Office said last night a radar for Shetland was a "possibility", adding that the agency had been liaising with the Ministry of Defence about potential use of the site at Saxa Vord.
But he stressed it "comes down to funding" - putting the sum required at around 1.5 million.
Whatever the future holds, Mr Tulloch said the likes of the wind dog would continue to play a part.
"In a place where one part of the island can be covered in thick fog and heavy rain, and a few miles away, there'll be glorious sunshine, people will still rely on the old ways, or combine them with what the radars say," he said.
"After the First World War, people were putting together the first ever tourist guide to the islands. They asked a local war hero, AT Cluness, to contribute a chapter. But he ended up writing just one brilliantly understated sentence. It said 'The weather in Shetland can be good, and sometimes it is'."
WITH its "maritime climate" - only slightly warmer than the Gulf of Alaska which lies on the same 60th parallel of latitude - boisterous conditions on Shetland are not confined to the dark, wild days in December and January.
The common saying is that the archipelago has "nine months of winter and three months of bad weather".
Even its bright summers are predominantly showery and cool, with fog a regular occurrence on the east side of the islands. Fierce gales are not exclusive to a single season, with wind speeds averaging around Force 4 (15mph) over the entire year.
Yet rainfall on the islands averages just 1,037mm (41in) a year, only half the total for Fort William. Almost three-quarters of the rain falls in winter, with the driest weather usually between April and August.
August is the warmest month, with a daily average maximum of 14C, and February the coldest, with 4.9C.

Insta-Cake Comes in a Spray Can
When you need your cake; you need it now. To that end, Harvard University students John McCallum and Brooke Nowakowski came up with Spray Cake, a innovative way to make cake. It arose out of a final project for McCallum's Science & Cooking class.
He adapted the technology from a whipping cream can so that it could accommodate batter. Inside, an accelerant forces air bubbles into the batter, which helps the cake rise without baking soda or baking powder.
Nowakowski helped McCallum perfect the recipe. When they had it nailed, they demonstrated it for Boston Globe journalist Billy Baker, who in turn arranged for them to show off their innovation to chef Joanna Chang, who owns Myers + Chang, an Asian restaurant in Boston and also runs Flour.
Spray Cake could be great for students like McCallum and Nowakowski, who live in dorms. These cakes can be made in a microwave. Cupcakes take about 30 seconds and a whole cake takes less than a minute.
Eating In An Emergency: Photos
Nowakowski told the Globe that her favorite thing about Spray Cake is the ability to adjust the portion. "You can simply pull it off the shelf, make one cupcake, then put it back in the fridge and it won't go bad."
Yeah. We know how that goes when the craving hits. I see everyone doing what they do with with whipping cream. Open wide and spray.

Clues for recognizing arrhythmias were outlined at the AMA annual meeting by Dr. Samuel Bellet of Philadelphia.
Although a diagnosis may in some instances be made by simple means, a definitive one is possible only by the electrocardiogram, Bellet said.
Helpful data in making a diagnosis, the physician said, are a history of an irregular or rapid pulse; the presence of a very slow pulse; a history of administration of drugs apt to produce arrhythmias; presence or absence of heart disease, and presence or absence of congestive failure.
A physician may suspect a ectopic rhythm if the patient shows a regular or irregular rhythm when the rate is below 30 or above 140 per minute, according to Bellet. Other factors that may indicate an ectopic rhythm are a history of palpitation or precordial pain with a sudden onset of rapid rate; coincidence of rapid rate with onset of failure; any

Soa And Loose Coupling
-- with an emphasis on lowering the former and raising the latter -- have long been foundations of qualitatively "good"
has raised "
" to buzzword status, as the best practices of SOA supposedly encourage low or "loose" coupling. In other words, dependencies between interconnected services are presumably minimised in a properly designed
. Of course, the dependencies between interconnected systems or subsystems should be minimised, wherever and whenever possible,
in general.
This is not unique to
, and is a fundamental tenet of
and indeed engineering of any kind.
Use of XML is sometimes mentioned as being a key ingredient in achieving loose coupling in an SOA. When we talk about systems being loosely coupled, we mean that there are few dependencies between them, and/or the dependencies are arranged in their technical details such that certain kinds of changes to the subsystem that implements an interface can be tolerated by clients without requiring changes to the latter. The only technical aspect of XML-based interaction that seems to promote loose coupling is the fact that information can be added to the output of interfaces, which will be ignored by unmodified clients, and perhaps conversely, that additional inputs accepted by the serving system can be defaulted if not supplied by the client. (Kind of like adding optional parameters to a function; callers don't have to be modified.) This kind of decoupling is eased by the use of XML, but can also be done (though typically it hasn't been) using other, more compact representations. Other types of changes--deletion of information in inputs or outputs, or changes in the meaning of inputs and outputs--still require changes in both clients and servers.
If not XML, what other mechanism has received widespread acceptance, and have the benefits of embedded semantics (or is semantics unimportant?). A question and not a challenge
-- dl
I would venture to say that RPC is a good example. See
. I'm hesitant to mention ODBC and JDBC as examples, but the combination of these and SQL could be seen as (very) roughly similar, with the full recognition that this may be subject to considerable debate. -- DV
does not
have "embedded semantics". This is the most egregious snake oil that is sold by some XML proponents. Semantics is
important, but it's not carried by data. You cannot exchange messages via XML, or any other transport medium, without having an a priori agreement at either end about what the data means. Short of a hypothetical AI system, the most meaningful XML tags in the world won't allow the receiving code to simply 'understand' the meaning of your XML message--thus there's no useful way in which you can say that semantics are embedded in it. --
Dan, various industry groups (e.g. health, accounting) have come together to define the "vocabulary" appropriate for their domain. And lots of these are using XML as a base. Yes you are correct in the absolute sense, and yes I "invented" "embedded semantics" on-the-fly, but would you agree there is merits still in using XML, based on the "imperfect improvements" to exchange messages? --
I have never seen any convincing arguments for
merits of XML over various other past and hypothetical data exchange representations, and there are at least a couple of ways in which XML is inferior to what has been used before. XML's
momentum is, however, an undeniable asset, important because of social issues. I don't know what you mean by "imperfect improvements to exchange messages". --
In a late 05 paper "Introduction to Building
Services" at
, ClemensVasters
contrasted the WCF way of messages with older mechanisms such as those used in
(section title "RPC or Messaging"). Amongst other things, he stated the "liberating" effects of the "new restrictions" of "doing without pass objects by reference or pass callback delegates".
I do not think people who have firm beliefs in a synchronous messaging model would be converted to his viewpoint, but the benefits would be understandable by nontechnical people as well. The problem probably lies in what
can one get by supporting loose coupling, and how much does it cost to mitigate the undesired consequences?
RPC and Loose Coupling
From above:
"I would venture to say that RPC is a good example. See
If I am not mistaken that was the now defunct DEC Distributed Computing Environment stuff. And it is synchronous. It does agree with what you said later that
"Synchronization has absolutely nothing to do with loose coupling"
I am not sure whether I understand.
If two systems are synchronized thru an RPC, in what sense are they "loosely coupled in a good way"?
And are you sure that the "hard work" done in providing "Async messaging" (e.g. queuing facilities by IBM, MS) etc are impractical or without merits?
-- dl
Asynchronous messaging is indeed valuable, nobody has said otherwise. It's also not new, e.g. there have been RPC systems that optionally supported it (although arguably, asynchronous RPCs look a lot less like procedure calls than synchronous ones). It is not traditionally part of what was meant by 'loose coupling'--a term that was applied to colocated software long before it was applied to distributed systems. I note that some of the articles mention asynchronicity as one of numerous characteristics of loose coupling, but that's the first time I've seen this -- it's a recent addition, and I would argue that it rests on a completely different meaning of the phrase.
Particularly amusing to me is the notion that stateless APIs are desirable. This is very old news, which was pretty well known when procedural programming ruled. It was lost during the OO frenzy, and is now being rediscovered. Or perhaps some conniving graybeard saw a chance to inject this good, old idea into new discussions under cover of trendy new acronyms. Power to him. --
If we take the evolution of
, do we find RPC type usage becoming more confined to specific problem domain?
People interested in a bit of history of the various RPC derivatives may want to look at the link at
for context.

It was the sixth serious shark attack this year in the region, which has been dubbed by experts as the "shark attack capital of the world".
The 34-year-old man had been surfing with his brother at Red Bluff, a popular and remote surf spot near Quobba Station, about 600 miles (1,000km) north of Perth, when the giant ocean predator struck about 3.30pm yesterday (8.30am BST).

"Liberated or Leftover? Single Women in Shanghai, Hong Kong, and Tokyo"
Lynne Nakano, Professor and Dept. Chair, Center for Japanese Studies, Chinese University of Hong Kong
With the rising age of marriage, the numbers of single women in East Asia's major cities have risen to an unprecedented degree. Political leaders, social commentators, and the media have responded with alarm, resulting in the circulation of pejorative vocabulary such as "leftovers" in China and "loser dogs" in Japan. These terms reflect the anxieties in society about the changing roles of women. This talk examines the social and economic conditions that shape the lives of single women in Shanghai, Hong Kong, and Tokyo, and discusses the strategies employed by single women to live meaningfully in these three cities. The speaker argues that single women are expected to compete in two mar-kets in which their value declines as they age; the marriage and employment markets. The speaker argues that if they could not or would not "win" in the marriage market, single women turned to other goals and values such as self-fulfillment, self-respect, personal achievement, and contribution to family and society.

By Mr. Arthur Bosker (SDDC)August 8, 2014
SEMBACH KASERNE, Germany (Aug. 8, 2014) -- Col. Layton G. Dunbar Jr. took command of Military Surface Deployment and Distribution Command's 598th Transportation Brigade in a change of command ceremony at the installation's Community Activity Center Thursday.
Dunbar assumed command from Col. Matthew D. Redding, who served as the 598th Transportation Brigade commander from Aug. 23, 2012 to Aug. 7, 2014, in a ceremony officiated by Maj. Gen. Susan A. Davidson, SDDC commanding general.
During her remarks, Davidson outlined the critical, but often unseen role the 598th Transportation Brigade plays in the nation's defense.
"I'm very grateful to have had [Redding] in command here at a time when many challenges demanded nothing less than excellence, experience and adaptability from a leader," she said. "He came in at a time when the brigade was to relocate to Germany from Rotterdam. No easy feat, especially while managing the mission without missing a beat to include overseeing a split-base operation for nearly eight months during the transition -- a testament to his dedication and stewardship.
"Even though [Redding] is leaving, the challenges of this brigade are not. [Dunbar] is the perfect selection to step into this command. He too understands the importance of supporting the warfighter. He also understands what it takes to create and sustain that support. I'm confident [he] is ready to take on the current challenges as well as the ones that lie ahead."
During his farewell remarks, Redding thanked the distinguished guests, civilian and military, for attending the ceremony and the brigade members -- Soldiers, Civilians and local nationals -- for everything they do to accomplish the mission.
"We proudly say each day in [SDDC] we 'Deliver Trust', well here in the 598th we deliver more," Redding said. "With 85 percent of all Department of Defense cargo flowing by sea, I take great pride every day in the accomplishments of this brigade."
He also thanked his family for their unwavering support, not only during his tenure as the 598th Transportation Brigade commander, but during his career.
"I am so proud of [my family] for who they have become," he said. "I know that having a Soldier in the family is not easy and I will continue to rely on their strength in the years to come," he said.
Dunbar began his remarks by thanking the 39th Transportation Battalion's Color Guard for their professionalism and for supporting the change of command. He also thanked the U.S. Air Force's Wings Aloft Woodwind Quintet for providing the music for the day's events and joked with them about not playing the U.S. Air Force song during the Army ceremony.
"I'd like to thank [Col. and Kristen Redding] for helping us as we made this transition," he said. "You've left a tremendous legacy leading our organization through a period of transition not only in this command but in SDDC as well. I truly look forward to the challenges right around the corner as you've set us up for success in upcoming exercises, ongoing operations and routine distribution support across the theater."
"To my family, thanks for all of your support over the years," Dunbar said. "Not only your support of me, but the support of our newest families as you've always done. To the Soldiers, civilians and local national teammates across Europe, you bring a wealth of experience and professionalism to our units and I know we'll continue our unparalleled support to our nation, U.S. forces, allies and partners. Kate and I look forward to serving all of you over the next couple of years."
Dunbar was commissioned in the Army from the Citadel in Charleston, S.C., and began his career as a rifle platoon leader in the 6th Infantry Division, Fort Wainwright, Alaska. Upon completion of his detail to the Infantry, he was transferred to the Transportation Corps. Prior to assuming command of the 598th Transportation Brigade, Dunbar was the chief of the Distribution Management Center, 21st Theater Sustainment Command at Panzer Kaserne in Kaiserslautern, Germany.
Redding, his wife Kristen and their two children, Alex and Gracie, will not be moving far from the 598th Transportation Brigade team. His next assignment is as the chief of staff for the 21st Theater Sustainment Command.
Among the many civilian and military distinguished guests in attendance were Bürgermeister (mayor) Rudolf Jacob of Winnweiler, Germany; Bürgermeister Andreas Alter and his wife Birgit of Enkenbach-Alsenborn, Germany; Maj. Gen. John O'Conner, commander, 21st Theater Sustainment Command; Command Sgt. Maj. Rodney Rhoades, commander sergeant major, 21st Theater Sustainment Command; and Command Sgt. Maj. Cedric Thomas, command sergeant major, SDDC.
Following the ceremony, there was reception to introduce the brigade and the many guests to Col. Dunbar, his wife Kate and their son Sean. Dunbar's other son, Specialist Andrew Dunbar, is a medic with the 1/25 Stryker Brigade Combat Team currently stationed at Fort Wainwright, his father's first duty location.

What's the secret when it comes to attaining Facebook "likes" that number in the millions? If you're a fashion brand, at least, it seems you'd better choose between embracing your sporty side or reaching for the heights of luxury.
The top 10 most-liked fashion brands on the social media channel were just announced, and, aside from the outlier Levi's (11.1 million likes) the list represents a perfect mix of athletic vs. luxurious attributes. Who would have thought Puma (no. 10) would be directly trailing Gucci (no. 9)? Meanwhile, coming in at number one is Converse, a perennial sporty go-to for the fashion set. Burberry, well-known for its successful social media strategy, is the highest on the list out of the luxury brands, hitting the number three spot.
Interestingly, when it came to retailers' Facebook pages, the top ten list was completely populated by affordable fashion — think Victoria's Secret, Zara, and H&M rounding out the top three.
Well, we're obviously fans of well-balanced, high-low fashion (ha!). That said, the specific blend of luxury and sport currently leading the way in social media lends credence to this spring's trend of fashion forward looks paired with kicks.

NORTH BERGEN - A 66-year-old Hoboken woman was killed yesterday when the car she was driving flipped on the westbound side of Route 495 as she approached an entrance to Route 3, according to online reports and fire officials.
The woman was not wearing a seat belt when her Buick sedan overturned and she was partially ejected, according to NorthJersey.com, the Web site of the Bergen Record. The woman was pronounced dead at the scene.
Her passenger, a 77-year-old Hoboken woman, was taken to the Jersey City Medical Center for minor injuries, said Jeff Welz, co-director of North Hudson Regional Fire and Rescue.
The women were westbound on Route 495 when the driver tried to make a right turn onto Route 3, according to the on-line report. The car went up on the median, hit a rock and then flipped, coming to rest on its wheels.
Police didn't identify the women yesterday because their next of kin hadn't been notified.
The accident created massive traffic problems on Route 495. The highway's westbound lanes were closed until a little after 3 p.m., while traffic was moving slowly on the eastbound side.
The accident drew a quick response from a number of agencies, including the North Bergen and Secaucus police departments, Port Authority police, and North Hudson Regional Fire and Rescue.

Well, your federal government is spending money that it does not have again.
The bill S.771 proposed by senators Boxer and Feinstein would have the BLM sell off public lands in the Victorville area.
The money from that sale would be used to buy Cemex's mining rights in Soledad Canyon. If not enough money is raised from the sale of the public lands, guess who is going to make up the difference?
The city of Santa Clarita.
Sounds like a very bad deal for us taxpayers, and a good deal for Cemex.
Cemex does not have to put a shovel in the ground and it still walks away with millions of dollars.
Call your local, state and federal officials and let them know what you think of their plan to spend your tax dollars.

Who in their right mind gets up at 3 a.m. to go shopping?!?
You know who you are :)
I took an office poll in Woodloch's Reservation Department only to find that I work with some determined strategists. Of course, there were those who swore they'd never repeat the Black Friday experience, while others seemed to not only thrive on it, but actually embrace it.
Woodloch's Special Events & Lodging Coordinator Karen Worzel says it's best to have a list and bring your coupons. Oh, and don't forget extra bags and perhaps a baby carriage. "You need someplace to put your stuff. They'll be out of bags and carts," she says.
"Never dress too warm because the stores are always hot," she tacks on. "And take bottled water and snacks because lines are long.
"I don't know if I'm an expert, but I go out every year. I've perfected my madness," she says with a glint in her eyes.
She's not kidding. They gather around the Thanksgiving table following dinner and the war strategy begins.
"All of my aunts and cousins all sit at the dining room table after its cleaned from dinner and we go through all of the circulars and ads," she says.
Look for her pulling into the store parking lot around 4 a.m. and not returning home until around 2 p.m.
"We're pretty much successful, each and every year," she says. It's a fun family tradition.
Reservationist Sara Hoey smilingly shakes her head remembering a friend who spent four long hours on line for a Black Friday door buster - a discounted iPod. But the friend was thrilled to claim her prize and save $50 bucks in the bargain.
"I went Black Friday shopping once. I don't even remember what it was for. I wore reindeer antlers and I got on the news. They had pictures of me coming through the doors," Sara says. She remembers other shoppers making shooting noises at her choice of head gear.
Front desk and reservation employee Sam Postrion says she hasn't been Black Friday shopping in over a decade. Just watching the mahem on TV is enough. Many moons ago, she accompanied her sister-in-law to help find some much sought after Cabbage Patch Kids; but found that limited supply can sometimes bring out the worst in people. "That was the worst because those women were out for blood."
Unfortunately, there are those who push and shove to get the upper hand. And that's sincerely sad. But Black Friday can also be inspiring.
This year, Woodloch Pines is donating a portion of its Black Friday bookings to aid Hurricane Sandy victims and ongoing relief efforts.
"Our thoughts and prayers continue to go out to those affected by the aftermath of Hurricane Sandy. The Woodloch Family will be donating a portion of all of the proceeds from this Black Friday special to the American Red Cross and The Salvation Army," said John Kiesendahl (resort owner).
One Woodloch caller - exclaiming how wonderful it is that Woodloch throws its annual Black Friday booking sale on select vacation dates - commented how much easier it is to take advantage of Woodloch's Black Friday Sale from the comfort of your own office or living room.
However, that same caller did say when it comes to shopping Black Friday, it's no holds barred. It's a tailgate party, complete with a cooler full of turkey sandwiches and girlish giggles as she and her sisters head out for some "crack of dawn" bargains.
It's with a laugh that she admits that they usually end up buying things that could be bought "at a normal hour." But then again, it's still a blast.

Song Of The Day: Watch Metric go Nat'l Geographic for 'Stadium Love' video
Five singles in and Metric's "Fantasies" just keeps going.
"Stadium Love" has its animalistic, survivalist elements in its core lyrics: "Every living thing / Pushed into the ring / Fight it out / To wow the crowd / Guess you thought / You could just watch / No one's getting out / Without stadium love." And the band lives it up in the new video for the track, putting the band in a cage, animals waging war on each other and with their prey, and frontwoman Emily Haines mugging ferociously.
The contrast of hearts casting around Haines' face and the bouncing, positive rhythm of the song forced against brutal Nat Geo-like footage gives it a cute ending and a great backdrop for what I think is one of their most commercially satisfying songs.
Reminds me a bit of the eat-or-be-eaten nature of our business -- as well as the "power animal" scene in "Fight Club," the music video shoot for Tia Carrere's band in "Wayne's World" and latter end of Radiolab's ep on "Lucy."
"As one of the sentiments expressed in the song is man's disregard for the natural world around us, we were concerned with how the animals we would be working with would be treated. Rest assured, not only were these animals treated with love, respect and tenderness, they were the stars," says the band on its website. "The word divas comes to mind. It was perfect, we worked on their schedule and pace."

"Alabama is close to home, offers a chance to play early, and it felt like the right place for me," Alfred McCullough said from Athens, (Ala.).
When McCullough was in Indiana earlier in the summer he told Scout.com he was ready to make his decision before his senior season and the timing was right when he returned home.
"I knew I'd commit before the season but, I wasn't sure it would be Alabama," he said. "Alabama is the place."
The Tide is seeking verbal commitments from defensive lineman and early playing time is readily available for the ones eager to earn it. McCullough knew the depth chart but, other tangibles in Tuscaloosa impressed him as well.
"Another reason I like Alabama is because of all the new buildings that are going to be in place for the athletes and their academics," he said.
His verbal commitment to the Tide is not rock solid and he replied when asked, "I wouldn't say I'm 100-percent committed. I will still keep my options open. I think I will stay with Alabama in the end though."

Which occurs first in development, shape or layers?
shape occurs first and then tissues are laid down to form layers
process of differentiation of special cells to form enamel, dentin, cementum and pulp
Three stages of morphodifferentiation
1. Bud stage (8th wk) 2. Cap stage (9th - 10th wk) 3. Bell stage (11th - 12th wk) (none can happen until have jaw and arch appearance)
Completion of morphodifferentiation occurs
when the Bell stage is complete (have complete crown shape of tooth)
Four layers of enamel organ
1. Inner enamel epithelium 2. Stratum intermedium 3. Stellate reticulum 4. Outer enamel epithelium
Inner enamel epithelium
differentiates into ameloblasts the form enamel matrix. epithelial cells communicate with dental papilla
First communication is
morphodifferentiation (instructs oral epithelium to thicken and grow down into CT to shape the tooth)
Steps of Morphodifferentiation
1. must have epithelial tissue and CT with cells communicating 2. oral epithelium thickens and grows down into CT forming a bud 3. tooth germ now connected to oral epithelium by dental lamina 4. continues growing apically and outward forming a cap 5. continues growing until crown shape is complete (bell stage) 6. cytodifferentiation can now begin in the crown

School Banking Program
For many years, Bank of Lancaster has had a strong commitment to help young people, from primary to high school, understand the importance of learning how to save at an early age and learning how to handle credit responsibly. The choices these young people make today can truly affect their lives for years to come; and as community bankers, we want very much to share our knowledge and our experience with them … we want to make a difference.
Partners in Success
Through our partnership with both the Virginia Bankers Association and the American Bankers Association, we want to help these young people understand that financial education is a life-long process that begins early in life. The School Bank program gives us a wonderful opportunity to make a difference in the lives of these students, and we're excited because for many of these students, this is a first step.
Through the School Bank, and helping these young people develop a habit of saving, many of these young people will begin to develop life-long decision making skills that are needed to become effective, informed citizens, consumers, investors, and employees.

Lancaster Middle School and Bank of Lancaster made history for our Northern Neck as the area's first School Bank opened on Wednesday, January 9, 2008. The School Bank gained the attention of the banking industry and in support of this educational opportunity for our local youth, on hand for the Ribbon Cutting Ceremony and Grand Opening were not only local but state and national banking officials.
All LMS students may open a savings account with Bright Futures Bank; it only takes a $1.00 to open the account. In order for every student at the school to be able to participate in the program, Bank of Lancaster mailed each of them a $1.00 bill. Students were encouraged to bring that dollar with them to open the account; and if the serial number on their bill matched a list of winning serial numbers, the student would win an additional $10 for their savings account. Eleven of the fifteen winning numbers came in, which was an amazing percentage.+
Bright Futures is open for business every Wednesday from 11 a.m. until 1 p.m.

Got a problem I'm not sure about. Building a system here and when I shut it down it won't start up again untill I pull the power cord and plug it back in. I'm thinking this is a Power supply problem. It is an older case and it is only a 200 watt power supply and I'm putting it on a PIII. This could also be a mainboard problem. Help me decide. Have a new case coming anyhow. Also noticing that the CDrom isn't opening all the time. That could be the cdrom. It tries but won't.

I have to admit, I'm really intrigued with this castor oil thing. I bought some today, mixed it half with coconut oil, and am beginning my experiment...
I read a lot of posts on the long hair forum from people who are using castor oil and have seen great results:
Castor oil for hair growth?
And this article by Mercola on castor oil was pretty interesting, even though I'm a little on the fence about him sometimes:
Castor Oil Uses: The Benefits of Using This Simple Home Remedy
If I can ever get my husband to translate that Italian e-book, I'll post a summary.
Every time l get frustrated with this forum, people go and post really interesting stuff I would have never thought of...I love it!

BOZCAADA, 7 October 2011 - An experimental renewables-hydrogen energy installation implemented by UNIDO-ICHET was inaugurated on the Aegean island of Bozcaada today.
The first project of its kind in Turkey, the Bozcaada Hydrogen Island project was installed in Bozcaada Governor's building by the International Centre for Hydrogen Energy Technologies (ICHET), a United Nations Industrial Development Organization (UNIDO) project supported by the Turkish Ministry of Energy and Natural Resources (MENR).
The opening ceremony was attended by representatives of the MENR, ICHET, UNIDO, Bozcaada Governor and Bozcaada Municipality.
"Generating energy from hydrogen will be a model for many other cities to find alternative and clean energy models," ICHET Managing Director Mustafa Hatipoğlu said at the opening ceremony.
The Bozcaada Hydrogen Island project is a facility aimed at studying how hydrogen and renewable energies can be integrated in standalone applications for the powering of island communities. This experimental power plant produces electricity thanks to a 20 kW solar photovoltaic array and stores an equivalent amount of energy as hydrogen via a 50 kW electrolyzer.
At times of grid failure or peak demand, the stored hydrogen can be converted back to electricity using a 20 kW fuel cell and 35 kW hydrogen engine, allowing uninterrupted electricity supply to the equivalent of 20 households for up to 24 hours. The system is to be completed in 2012 by a 30 kW set of wind turbines.

Who are we needing to convince? Sometimes I think it's ourselves.
Thanks for the info, y'all.
Now I just need to convince my husband that I'm not going to keel over dead because I don't eat enough vegetables!
Most people don't realize how much energy it takes for me to pretend to be normal.
If I wanted to listen to an asshole, I'd fart.
Twibble's Twibbly Wibbly
Who are we needing to convince? Sometimes I think it's ourselves.
+1 fersure.I really think that there is an element of "Yes we are Primals and yes, we do eat a lot of meat and don't fear animal fat. But, but, but, look at all the veggies we eat! This is a healthy diet! Really it is. See?"
Who are we needing to convince? Sometimes I think it's ourselves.
Left to my own devices, I'd probably live almost always on one meal a day of a big hunk of protein with its associated fat, and either a 10 oz potato/squash/root or 1/4 cup (dry measure) serving of rice cooked. Given that my only other regular source of carbs is the smidge that is in my morning half 'n' half, I just naturally eat low carb. Not under 50 grams, but always easily under 75-100.
Spring is upon us, and I do find myself eating a bit more fruit - mostly strawberries and tomatoes. But I also am wanting less potato, so it all balances out. Add a warm 'salad' of sauteed greens, tomato, garlic, and olive oil maybe once a month, and I'm good.
It's very freeing to not only reject CW, but sometimes even the CW of the paleo/primal community.
"Right is right, even if no one is doing it; wrong is wrong, even if everyone is doing it." - St. Augustine
Who says back fat is a bad thing? Maybe on a hairy guy at the beach, but not on a crab.
That Matt LaLonde AHS video about nutrient density really capped it for me in conjunction with the Fiber Menace guy's work. When you take out all the cellulose and water, the veggies don't gold a candle to animal products for nutrient value.
Now, if I eat a vegetable, it is because it has some enhancement value wrt the meat like onions and mushrooms around my pot roast. It is freeing to get past the mindset of eating your vegetables because you are "supposed to".
Welp. So far I have all my kitchen stuff, books, clothes and linens moved. There needs to be one last round up run of all the little stuff like the dog food, my computer, etc.
The new place is starting to feel like my place. Putting up curtains and pictures and such is sort of marking my territory.
I never eat vegetables because I am supposed to I eat them because I really enjoy them. Several days a week I will add yams, brussel sprouts, cauliflower, broccoli or cabbage etc to my dinner and usually have a big salad with a dressing of olive oil, balsamic vinegar and organic mustard sometime during the day...Yum. But I tend to mix it up quite a bit. One day it will be just fish and meat with an avocado and some garnish veg like onions and bell peppers, the next a mix of veg and meat with an intermittent fast, the next day maybe even add some fruit. Lots of variety seems to work for me and makes the meals interesting and fun.
Paleobird, I almost peed my pants when you compared neti pots to enemas. All I could imagine was Mistress Heather's House of Humiliation: "Come here you worm, I'm going to punish your nose so baaaad!"

Who says back fat is a bad thing? Maybe on a hairy guy at the beach, but not on a crab.
Tubers can be tasty with enough oil or butter. If I were not watching my carbs I might eat a yam now and then. I'm not saying that any of that is bad, just that it takes up space on my plate that would be better occupied by more nutrient dense and inherently delicious animal protein and fat.
I do like the random unplanned style of eating. Any time I stick to one "plan", like the JUDDD or fast 5 or whatever, it jsut feels forced. I find myself naturally drifting toward warrior diet once a day eating but, if on any given day, I happen to feel like having breakfast, I do.

Vanity of Duluoz traces the development of Jack Duluoz, and takes the form of a written address – a letter, as it were – to his wife. It tells of how Jackie Duluoz, a bright, enthusiastic boy and brilliant football player, wins a sports scholarship and, as a consequence, moves out of his French-Canadian culture into an alien world, where "most" of the students "are very rich" (31). The football team does include other sports scholarship boys, but, since Duluoz harbors writing ambitions, he feels he fits in nowhere. At Columbia College these problems persist. The resulting tensions are neatly skewered by the way Duluoz's failure to hold a place on the team is related to his lack of commitment to football, as he …

UNDP Presents Climate Strategy at Second Lagos Climate Change Summit
May 2010: The second Lagos Climate Change Summit took place from 4-7 May 2010, in Lagos, Nigeria, under the theme "Transboundary effects of climate change: sharing best practices in mitigation and adaptation measures." The Summit brought together about 1200 stakeholders who heard, inter alia, two presentations from the UN Development Programme (UNDP).
The first presentation focused on the recently defined Country Office Comprehensive Climate Change Strategy. The second addressed the territorial approach to climate change with an emphasis on climate change mitigation, including reducing emissions from deforestation and forest degradation in developing countries (REDD) activities. The territorial approach to climate change aims to: enhance energy access and the creation of new economic activities through the development of clean production and consumption options at the local level; and reduce local vulnerability to climate variations and fluctuations of energy prices.
The Summit ended with the adoption of proposal of over 40 recommendations, contained in the communiqué of the meeting, which emphasizes the role of the private sector in addressing the threats of climate change and the need to strengthen public-private partnerships.

It's a fact that Mexican Food includes pinto beans but little is shared on the reasons or benefits of why many Mexican families including my own eat Pinto Beans.
For as long as I can remember pinto beans were always paired up if not included in our meals. I've tasted a variety of dishes that had pinto beans as their main ingredient.
Growing up I wasn't a huge fan of pinto beans. I didn't hate them they just were another side dish or ingredient in a meal. Once I got married and pinto beans weren't being cooked for me, I began to miss them. I had to quickly learn how to make them and with that I learned the benefits of including them in my meals.
I now make a big batch in the crock pot and store in container in our deep freeze for easy last minute meals. My kids have learned to eat them much like I did as a kid. They especially love taking sips of the broth.
Besides pinto beans being culturally traditional to the Mexican culture, there are some great benefits both in health and budget.
Here are 5 reasons my family eats pinto beans and yours should too!
The benefits of eating pinto beans 1 of 6
Scroll through the slide to learn the reasons we eat pinto beans.
Full of Iron 2 of 6
Anemia runs in my family. My mother and I suffer the most from it. The Iron in the broth of cooked pinto beans helps me on days I feel dizzy or just not myself. It's a quick pick me up and I enjoy the taste of having pinto beans in a mug.

Rich in Fiber 3 of 6
Beans are full of fiber which is important because our culture has a high risk of high cholesterol. When the beans are prepared correctly with low sodium and no added fats this is a great dietary ingredient for meals.
A great source of protein 4 of 6
Pinto Beans and other dried beans are known to be full of protein and a great substitution for other proteins like meat because they are fat free.
Photo by: Mary_Thompson
Affordable ingredient for meals 5 of 6
A pound bag of pinto beans can be as cheap as a dollar. Pinto Beans with minimal ingredients can be a delicious affordable filling meal. My father has shared that as a child his family had little money. He said they usually ate beans and tortillas.

Versatile ingredient 6 of 6
There are endless ways to cook and serve beans. My favorite side of beans is a blend of Chorizo (Mexican spicy sausage and re-fried beans. As a main ingredient, I enjoy Pinto Bean Tostadas! Check out my Pinto Beans on Pinterest for more delicious meals made with beans including this Crock Pot Frijoles.

Dear Midwife,
Thank you so much for responding to my question.this is the most nerve-racking moment of my life. My repeat progesterone after 2 days of Prochieve 8% BID went from 5.2 to 11.2. I had a quick ultrasound to make sure there wasn't an ectopic pregnancy and that it was implanted in the uterus, and go back in one week for a repeat ultrasound and I hope blood work. I have heard that if the progesterone is low, that this might be a pregnancy that should have never been.is that true? If so, I am afraid I will be setting myself up for terminating the pregnancy for some horrific genetic problems.
It's true that pregnancies that aren't really viable have low progesterone levels. My own experience is that if progesterone supplementation works (maintains the pregnancy), the babies have all been perfectly normal.

If you go to any diet site, you will find people convinced that the key to weight loss is grinding through crazy amounts of exercise, that no diet will work unless you do loads of exercise. Especially chronic cardio, the more the better.
And drink more water, too. Because the more water you drink, the more fat you lose.

A section of the Kancamagus Highway in Lincoln was closed Thursday morning due to a power line that came down across the road.
Authorities said the extreme cold likely broke a pole, causing telephone, cable and electrical wires to come down.
At its peak, around 1,700 customers in area homes were left without power. Loon Mountain also lost power and was closed for the day.
By 10:30 a.m., power to the mountain and many area homes was restored.
Crews hope to restore power to affected residents by 1 p.m.
The highway in that area remains closed.

Essex County Executive Joseph N. DiVincenzo, Jr. announced an exciting line-up of activities for the 37th Annual Essex County Cherry Blossom Festival in Essex County Branch Brook Park.
The festival begins Saturday, April 6, with the Cherry Blossom Challenge Bicycle Race and concludes on Saturday, April 20, with the Essex County Family Day and the One-Mile Fun Run/Walk.
The cherry blossom display in Essex County Branch Brook Park is larger than the national display in Washington, D.C. and is the most diverse collection of cherry blossom varieties in the world.
The County Executive surprised those assembled when he announced plans to plant an additional 1,000 cherry blossom trees in Branch Brook Park to bring the total number of cherry trees to over 5,000 by next year's festival.
As Essex County thanked Aetna for sponsoring the festival for the fourth consecutive year, the health care company presented a ceremonial sponsorship check.
