Despite temperatures in the 40s and wind chills feeling colder than that, the Vols practiced outside in shorts. Coach Fulmer said the rules dictated that they had to practice for two days in shorts. They will work in full pads and have their first contact of the spring on Saturday.
All eyes will be on the throwing shoulder of rising sophomore QB Erik Ainge. Ainge missed the final 4 games of last season when he separated his right shoulder in the Notre Dame game. Rick Clausen took over at quarterback and was named MVP of the Cotton Bowl. Rising sophomore QB and Florida native Brent Schaeffer is also in the hunt to start. Schaeffer had injury issues of his own with a broken collarbone suffered in the South Carolina game.
"They both looked good today, as did Rick," Coach Fulmer saidof his QB trio. "It's going to be a good competition. Each one of them started a team period. We're not trying to play any favorites. They all got about the same number of reps. It'll work itself out." Fulmer said that a starting QB will probably be named at the conclusion of Spring practice.
Many key players are nursing injuries and will not participate in Spring drills. Three of them had surgery within the last week. Center Rich Gandy, a 6-5 senior, had left Knee surgery last Friday. Gandy damaged his ACL during an intramural basketball game in Febuary. Gandy can play any position on the offensive line. Defensive end Jason Hall had arthroscopic surgery on his right shoulder Monday. Hall was named SEC Defensive player of the week in Tennessee's upset win at Georgia. Kicker James Wilhoit had right foot surgery Monday in Charlotte, NC . Wilhoit nailed a game winning 50 yard field goal against Florida
Redshirt freshman defensive back Sinclair Cannon attended classes on campus Tuesday. Cannon was involved in an auto accident near his home in Greer, SC on Febuary 20th. Cannon will not practice this week and his status for the Spring is day-to-day.
With so may players out, that will allow younger players to show the coaching staff what they can do.
"This is what Spring practice is for," said Coach Fulmer. "Its not for me to see Parys Haralson, Omar Gaither, or Jason Allen or Gearld Riggs play. Its for the younger players more than anything. When we have a big scrimmage, the older guys will get 5 plays and then the younger players will get 20. Then the older guys will get 5 plays and the young guys will get 20. That's where we will find out about their toughness and ability. Unfortunately, Spring practice is only 15 days."
Spring practice will conclude with the Orange and White game on Saturday, April 16th.
Fulmer when asked about Buzz-"Sure I hope he is back. Buzz is a great friend and a really fine basketball coach. He is a fine man with a great family and loves Tennessee. I certainly would like to see him come back. But he also understands that it is a profession, like ours, thats volatile at times. I trust the administration will make a good decision for Tennessee. Thats the world we live in."

Jenmar implemented Ross ERP in five plant sites plus corporate offices within 12 months. The ERP solution included process management, inventory control, purchasing and full financials, replacing silos of information that were holding back the company's growth.
"One of the things that impressed us from the beginning, was the flexibility demonstrated by Ross," said Ted Benham, Jennmar's vice president of information technology. "They were the only vendor that took the data we provided and actually showed us how to manage the process of making roof bolts. This proved to us that the Ross team understood the unique requirements of a metals company and could provide a solution that closely fit our business needs".

Hello. If you can't tell by the ridiculous gamertag and no gamerscore, this isn't my account.
My real account is still usable but the email I used however, is not.
I'm auto-logged in when I sign onto my Xbox but whenever I try to get to Xbox.com or my hotmail account, I need to use the email I used on the gamertag.
My question is: Is there a way I can change my email address on the same gamertag? I may need to buy a new Xbox soon (due to the Disc Tray not reading my games) and I'll be crushed if I can't use my gamertag since the email I used to register it was blocked.
I have a gmail account, another hotmail account, a yahoo, and an AOL email so I'm not worried about switching it to something more reliable, I just can't sign into the other email cause it was blocked and I have no idea how to get it back on, it says to send a code to another email address but the backup isn't one I use anymore.
Here's a helpful page all about amending your Live ID details, including your email. :)
Good luck and come back to us if you need any more help!
Hmm the OP may struggle if the email address used for their the primary xbox live account is blocked / invalid. When an email address becomes invalid it can no longer be changed.
OP don't fret about buying a new console, you can still transfer your profile to a new one simply by putting your profile on a memory stick, using data transfer cable or using your hard drive with the new console (the last option will not work if have the old shapped xbox and are buying the new shapped one).
Ambassador - Here to help
So the Windows Live ID that you use for the gamertag you normally play with has been blocked? If that is the case, You will want to walk through the steps shown on the link Vixxiie gave. Unfortunately, Xbox support and Windows Live support are two separate division, so unblocking it can only be done on the Windows Live end. Also, moving the profile over with a memory unit will still prompt you for the WLID and pw if the console you're moving the profile too has not yet been established as a trusted console. Best thing to do is get it unblocked with Windows Live, then try moving it if need be. Good luck to you :)
Is it possible to change the main e-mail address associated with my Live ID/gamertag if the e-mail address no longer exists? I did not log into the account for years and now it's gone, so I cannot check the e-mails I would receive for things like password changes.
And I would REALLY like to change my password, considering it's from 2008..

The George Washington University
Engineering Management & Systems Engineering Department (EMSE)
Environmental & Energy Management Program (E&EM)
Fall 2004 (Volume 5, Number 2)
Begins Research Project with
Pubic Health Service and National Park Service
In the Fall 2004 semester, doctoral candidate Edward Hagarty began a research project in conjunction with the U.S. Public Health Service (PHS) and the U.S. National Park Service (NPS). The project, entitled "Toward Long-Term Sustainability of Our National Parks: Improving the Management and Operation of Park System Wastewater Treatment Systems," involves an analysis of the existing wastewater treatment systems in the national park system, development of a prototype database designed to improve the efficiency and effectiveness of PHS actions to manage park system wastewater treatment systems, design a prototype Internet-based system to facilitate acquisition and maintenance of data populating the database; and the design, verification and validation of an appropriate technology selection model to assist PHS personnel with the identification of new system processes and existing system upgrades that are optimal in terms of relevant selection criteria and constraints.
Doctoral candidate Hagarty and Dr. Deason are working with CAPT Charles L. Higgins, Director, and Commander Jason Thomas, Deputy Director, of the National Park Service's Public Health Program, and Shawn Norton, Director of the Environmental Leadership Program of the National Park Service. Also involved in the new project are Associate Professor Theresa L. Jefferson, Lead Professor of the Software Engineering and Information System Management Program, and doctoral candidate Mark Andress.
The research project is designed to help the Public Health Service utilize the latest developments in systems engineering to address the difficult challenges of wastewater treatment within the expansive National Park System. Many of the 1,600 wastewater systems in the park system need to be able to handle widely varying flows that range from zero in the off-season to high flows that exceed system design capacities during peak seasons. Also, most of the systems need to be relatively simple to operate as the system operators are likely wear several hats, reducing the potential to have dedicated staff to operate a complicated system.
Due to the size of many national parks, there typically are many types of systems operating in any given park that vary from simple on-site systems with zero discharge to central collection and treatment systems which are more complicated and have significant operation and maintenance requirements. In addition to these difficulties, the operation and management of park treatment systems is complicated by the fact that there currently is no comprehensive inventory of existing wastewater treatment systems in the park system, nor comprehensive records indicating degrees of NPDES compliance for regulated facilities.
The new research project
will be incorporated into the Sustainability Project currently underway pursuant
to an existing cooperative agreement between the NPS and GW. A major objective
of the research will be the development of a technology selection model that
will use a searchable database to assist engineers in determining the best
type of wastewater treatment systems to consider, based on historical system
performance as related to flows, flow fluctuations (daily and seasonal), climate,
discharge limitations, and other relevant factors for small flow systems typical
of those in a national park setting. This tool will be useful for other applications
where low flows and/or flows with high seasonal fluctuations exist. Also,
a password protected, Internet-based system will be developed to allow efficient,
real-time data to be collected, as well to facilitate other means of intra-
and inter-park coordination.

The Price Is Right?: City leaders weigh pros, cons of $1 billion stadium project
By A. Scott Walton Executive Editor | 8/9/2013, 6 a.m.
The prospect of placing a new Falcons stadium on the so-called "north site" has met with its fair share of criticism. The Marietta Street Artery Association, the Northwest Community Alliance and City Councilman Ivory Young, who serves the district north of the Dome, are among those who've been rallying opposition against opting to build on the so-called "north site". All have expressed resistance to having a stadium intrude upon their current live/work conditions downtown.
The mayor implores all concerned parties to "come together" in agreement on a special events venue that he insists will be "the best in the world" for the next two or three decades.
Lloyd Hawk, the chairman of the Friendship Baptist board of trustees, stood fast with Reed saying succinctly: "We understand the potential benefits of the stadium being placed at the south site for the surrounding community."
The sale proposal will be presented to the Friendship Baptist congregation of an estimated 400 members for approval.
Atlanta City Council member H. Lamar Willis remarked that there are still hurdles to clear before Atlanta's proposed contribution to the new stadium construction goes forward.
"The Council has to say, 'Yes, there is an appropriate community benefit'," Willis said.
Referring to all of the key players who insist that companies owned by minorities and women be involved in the construction and operation of the stadium, as well as those adamant that neighborhoods in the MLK corridor (Vine City, English Avenue, Castleberry Hill, etc.) must be revitalized by the project, Willis added: "They want to see (proof) that the hard commitment of $30 million or so for improvement of the community, and another $15 million that is kind of soft, gets paid out this time. When the Georgia Dome was built, it was promised to them but they didn't really get it."
City Councilwoman Felicia Moore – who was among those out-voted by an 11-4 margin against the mayor's new stadium proposal – said she might be hard-pressed to vote in final approval of issuing tax funding for the project.
It all depends, Moore said, on, "How that (community development) money will be spent, and what it will be spent on and whether it will impact the community for the long term and not just be a one-time hit."
City Council president Ceasar Mitchell said, in no uncertain terms, that he's in favor of building a new state-of-the-art Falcons stadium, particularly if it is situated on the south side of downtown and especially if it gives women and minorities a chance to capitalize on the prospective opportunities.
"My support of it was strengthened by the Falcons' willingness to make agreements around community investment and (minority) business inclusion," he said.
The Atlanta Falcons' proposed stadium project – and its potential financial windfall for the city's tourism and convention revenues – has its skeptics. Chief among them is Morehouse College professor of economics, Dr. Gregory Price.
Price urges tax-payers to review studies of the economic impact of publicly funded buildings or renovation of stadiums in Oklahoma City (where the NBA's Thunder play) or the greater Milwaukee area (where the NFL's Green Bay Packers, Major League Baseball's Brewers and the NBA's Bucks play). The "Report by the Legislative Reference Bureau, April '13" summarized that cities with new stadiums merely experience a "substitution effect" where funds from one portion of the respective metro area shift temporarily to another.
"The net impact is zero," Dr. Price said, while taking into account that construction workers get hired, vendors gain business and suppliers reap rewards.
"Maybe it's a fact that the Falcons' brand new stadium will attract new convention business. But will it transform the neighborhood surrounding it? Probably not. I share the view that it won't have any significant economic impact. There are static input-output models at play. It's all going to be a wash. It comes down to the question of 'What are you spending, and what does it yield?'."

Ouidad Double Detangler
We're sorry, this product is no longer available.
Ouidad Double Detangler is the next generation detangling tool designed to slide through your curls without the ripping or tugging.
Jun 5, 2014
Not What I Expected :)
When I opened the first thing I noticed was how huge the comb was. I have thick, kinky curly hair which takes an extensive amount of time to detangle. My mom detangled my hair with the ouidad conditioner and the comb, it took far less longer to detangle my hair than usual. I was surprised and was like hey I like this comb. It was a bit pricey, but in my opinion it's worth it. It kind of depends on what type of curls you have. I have learned to deal with the tangles in my hair and don't mind if they are there because my hair gets tangled soooo easy. Having black, asian, and white hair. I'm going to start using this comb from now on. I also prefer that you wet your hair before combing your hair out with this comb so you won't look like a frizz ball :)

Great, But Huge, Comb!
Ok, so I just got my folica order in the mail yesterday (always, ALWAYS super fast delivery) and was surprised that this comb was SO BIG. It's a little clunky to be honest. However, I gave it a trial run through my dry curls last night. It glided through my curly hair pretty easily. For those of you with curly hair, rule of thumb is you don't touch it, comb it, brush it once it's dry. I figured running this comb through my hair would make my hair poof out big time - you know, like any other brush or comb would. I have to say that this comb didn't really do that. My curls were looser and fluffier than i would normally like but it didn't really frizz my hair at all. Namely just separated the curls. I think the price of the comb is a bit much but I had to try it. Glad I did. I also used it in the shower this morning to comb conditioner through my hair. I lost so much less hair than using a standard comb!! I was really amazed by that. Normally it feels like i'm losing a fistful of hair each day b/c of trying to finger comb or regular comb but not today! My only con about this comb is that, as I mentioned earlier, it's a bit clunky making it somewhat awkward to use but I'm sure that I will get used to it in time.

I had been looking at this comb for some time and wwaited untill this was on sale before I decided to buy. if I had paid full price I would have been very disappointed. The comb is very heavy, and has no design feature that allows you to hang it in the shower. In terms of results, I don't notice much of a difference (if any) from my standard wide tooth comb - except my regular comb is easier to use, store and pack for travel. I wouldn't waste my $. (I have thick, shoulder length curly hair.)

Cool Product, But So-so On Medium/fine Wavy Hair
I wanted a comb or brush that would untangle my medium/fine 2 b / 2c hair without poofing it out. My hair never feels untangled enough after just raking it with my fingers. This product does untangle, but I still got a poofy effect. I have a feeling it would work better on thicker and curlier hair than mine. It's still better than a regular comb and a hair pick, so I'll keep it around and use it.
Also, what you've heard is true, this thing is heavy and hard. Seriously, I should keep it by my bedside and scare intruders. But the weight is probably so that it will glide through tight curls with minimal effort from you. Found a coupon for folica, so this place was the least expensive I discovered to buy it.

Good But Overpriced
This comb definitely sped up my detangling time. A got it on sale, but if I had to pay for it I probably would be willing to pay $16. The bottom line is the comb is cool, but in practical life all we really need for detangling curly hair is a strong wide tooth comb and a lot of conditioner and water during the process.
Notwithstanding the price... I get in these moments where I let my hair go curly for way to long without combing and it gets a bit "rat's nesty." So the comb helped, but for the really tangled parts I had to use my regular comb, which basically looks the same but is one comb rather than 2. Overall, it's a good comb and I'm glad I have it. I think if you have a tough time detangling your curly hair in the shower and are not happy with your current method, you will be happy with the purchase. It will save you some breakage which is great for your hair in the long run. If you have super curly or coarse hair you will be even happier because it is very sturdy.

About Auto Anything
An Auto Anything promo code from Groupon Freebies isn't an ASE certification, but it can help you fix your car all the same. Since starting in 1979, Auto Anything has gone from a specialty automotive shop that sold floor mats to a specialty online retailer that sells just about any automotive part or accessory. The website has thousands of items from hundreds of brands, including Husky Liners, Coverking, WeatherTech, Powerstop, and AVS. Moreover, Auto Anything has products for cars, trucks, SUVs, motorcycles, RVs, and even boats. Before you get started on your next do-it-yourself project, find an Auto Anything coupon or deal below to save on your purchase.
When Selwyn Klein first opened the doors to Auto Anything, the shop carried floor mats and Blue Ribbon seat covers, and that's about it. Since then, Klein and his sons David and Trevor have worked hard to expand the business. Today, Auto Anything stocks essential parts such as brakes, batteries, and motor oil as well as interior and exterior accessories from headlights and windshield wipers to familiar standbys like floor mats and even Blue Ribbon seat covers. On the site's catchall accessory page, the auto inclined can find everything from boat and RV products to tailgating and man-cave merchandise. No matter what your favorite mode of mechanical transport, before you start searching for parts, do some wallet maintenance and scroll down for an Auto Anything coupon.
Auto Anything doesn't only work with an array of automotive parts and accessory brands. The company also partners with national charities each year, including Toys for Tots, American Cancer Society, and American Red Cross. To spur participation in last fall's 14th annual Walk in Making Strides Against Breast Cancer, Auto Anything made a donation for every team member who walked.
There's no better feeling than closing your vehicle's hood, returning to your driver's seat, and seeing the check-engine light turned off or the steak that you grilled on the engine in your hands. Do your own mechanic work with an Auto Anything promo code from Groupon Freebies.

89(+?) Points | Stephen Tanzer's IWC - May/June 2011
Dark ruby-red. Showy aromas of cassis, cedar and flowers. Sweet and ripe but a bit youthfully austere compared to the 2007 and 2009 versions, showing a strong core of blueberry and cassis fruit. This very tight wine is taking its time to open up but appears to have the fruit intensity to support its serious tannic spine.

Though northeast Ohio escaped with a mild winter this year, blizzard conditions, freezing rain, snow squalls and cold temperatures can wreak havoc on the roads we travel.
Little thought is given, however, to the damage that may occur to a car while negotiating winter's unpredictable behavior.
With the coming of spring, getting winter-ravaged cars in shape can be of most importance to gear up for the summer travel season.

Road salt in winter can lead to rust damage in your car. According to Jeff Payne of Payne Autobody in Cortland, "Salt eats brake lines and eats out gas tanks, making the tanks rust out. Salt gets up in between the tank and the straps that hold it in place."?
Two of the biggest causes of winter car damage in Ohio are potholes and road salt.
Potholes seem to be unavoidable during Ohio winters. Though it's not always easy to avoid them, it is important to drive with caution and steer around potholes if possible.
"Potholes open due to plowing, and that can cause damage to struts, ball joints or shocks from hitting a pothole or a chuckhole," said Rick Hern, owner of Rick Hern Motors in Hubbard. Hern has been in the auto business for 43 years.
Fact Box
Reporting potholes
The following are guidelines for reporting potholes to the Ohio Department of Transportation.
Make note of where the pothole is located. A motorist should only report a pothole or damage from a pothole to the state if the pothole is on a state-maintained roadway. State maintained roads include all interstates and state and U.S. routes in unincorporated municipalities, such as villages or townships.
ODOT's webpage can be accessed at www.dot.state.oh.us. A pull-down menu is available for reporting potholes or similar damages to vehicles under Damage to Vehicle/Report a Pothole.
If a motorist encounters a pothole on a state or U.S. route in a city or other incorporated municipality, he or she must contact the city or governing authority directly (for example: city, county, township, etc.).
SOURCE:?Ohio Department of Transportation
"Drivers can break belts in tires through hitting a pothole or a chuckhole," Hern said. "Drivers will feel a vibration or clunking when the struts in their cars are damaged."
Jeff Payne, president of Payne Autobody in Cortland, said that salt on roadways is a huge damage factor when looking at the outer body of a car.
"Salt eats brake lines and eats out gas tanks, making the tanks rust out," Payne said. "Salt gets up in between the tank and the straps that hold it in place. Cars with plastic headlight lenses are damaged by salt. The salt fogs the lenses of the headlight, which is more common among newer cars, since they have plastic headlights."
Payne said that salt also can eat up a car's muffler and other areas underneath the car.
"Salt deteriorates the boards and everything underneath the car," Payne said. "It's best to take the car to a car wash that has an under body rinse bath system or chassis rinse system, which sprays water up from underneath the car. This washes the junk out from underneath the car. Overall, this rinse keeps the salt from accumulating underneath the car."
Payne also said that the tell-tale signs of a car's body rusting due to salt damage include rusting on the rocker panels, rusting of fender wells or wheel wells, and rust on the bottoms of the doors.
Wyatt Moadus, general manager of American Auto Painting in Warren, said that if rust damage on a car goes untreated for a long time, the situation can get worse.
"The rusted section of the car can get holes if it goes untreated for a long time," Moadus said. "Car owners would have to re-fabricate the metal panel depending on the circumstance of the situation."
Moadus said that the areas of a car that are most likely to rust are the rocker panels and wheel wells.
"The majority of the vehicles I am currently working on are vehicles that succumb to rust," Moadus said. "It's not always limited to just winter."
Moadus noted that Ohio has a moist climate year-round.
"If a car owner wants to avoid rust, then they should just move to a dry climate like Arizona," he said.
Moadus said rust spots can occur in places of a car where it's least expected.
"Car owners should run their hands across the surface of their car to feel for rust spots," Moadus said. "If a car is rusting, they will feel a bubbling on the surface. It's easier to feel the rust than to see it sometimes."
Moadus said that it is best to take a proactive approach when it comes to rust on a car.
"It's best to treat rust earlier," Moadus said. "It will cost a person less if they get the problem treated right away."

Workers at NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory are asking for a congressional investigation into the agency's data security efforts after learning the theft of a laptop and documents last month may have compromised information for 10,000 NASA employees.
The incident is the latest in a series of skirmishes over NASA's employee background checks.
On Oct. 31, a NASA laptop and documents were stolen from an employee's locked vehicle on a Washington, D.C., street. A few weeks later, workers at JPL and elsewhere received letters from the agency stating that personal information gathered in NASA background checks, including home addresses and Social Security numbers, was at risk.
On Wednesday, Pasadena attorney Dan Stormer said he plans to file a class-action lawsuit on behalf of current and former JPL employees.
"We are outraged," he said. "The information, the most sensitive, the most protected information that you can have, was released from our clients' background investigations."
Robert M. Nelson, a JPL research scientist for 34 years who joined Stormer at a news conference, said he left his position in April because of the government's so-called invasive background checks. In 2011, he and other colleagues lost a lawsuit asking NASA to alter its policies regarding the collection of personal information.
"It gives me little pleasure to say that we told you so," Nelson said. "But we did. Five years ago we warned of this possibility that if the government had this kind of information at this kind of detail, that it will surely be leaked."
Rep. Adam Schiff (D-Burbank), a member of the House Appropriations subcommittee that oversees NASA funding, said in a statement on Wednesday that he will call on NASA "to report on and accelerate its efforts to maintain data security."
He added that testimony on the House Science Committee last spring reported on the agency's delay in security upgrades.
Rep. Judy Chu (D-Monterey Park) said in a statement that she would push the agency to improve data security. "NASA has previously had security breaches of sensitive information," she said. "It has to stop."
NASA spokesman Bob Jacobs said the agency is rushing to encrypt all its computers by Dec. 21, a process that has sped up since the security breach.
The stolen computer, which was password-protected but not encrypted, was never intended to leave NASA's Washington, D.C., building, he said.
"It was removed from the building against agency policy," Jacobs said.
The employee who took the laptop home will be disciplined, he said.
"Ultimately, NASA regrets the incident and the inconvenience it is causing everyone whose information may be exposed," Jacobs said.
In the letter to affected employees, NASA offers identity protection to workers free of charge through a private firm.
In recent years, NASA has stopped asking questions about sensitive topics including workers' sexual history, according to current and former JPL workers. But some still feel the background checks are intrusive.
Josette Bellan, a JPL senior research scientist, said she submitted information for the background investigation in April, but it was initially rejected because in the comment section she wrote she was completing the form under duress. She then resubmitted the information, leaving the comment section blank.
"I decided to go through the background checks because I have great interest in what I am doing and decided to pursue my career in this manner," she said.
Now, Bellan is worried that her personal information may be leaked.
"I think that this is a great concern, not only to us, but to the entire nation," she said. "I hope more thought is given to this issue and finally, at the highest level, people are going to see it the way we do."

I seem to remember doing some research on this a while back and coming to the conclusion that most lamb from Australia is in fact pastured.
I picked up some Costco lamb loin chops for a pretty good price, a big tray for 20 bucks. It says on the package that it's important from Australia. I tired doing some research and I found this website: Australian Lamb
It is hard to tell if this is costo's supplier. But when I went to the Where to Buy link and put in my zip code, my costco showed up along with other supermarkets and the the website says - "100% free-range Australian Lamb is all-natural, grass-fed, pasture-raised and free of artificial additives and hormone growth promotants—a pure product of its pure environment."
Has anyone done any research and can confirm that lamb from costco is indeed grass-fed and hormone free. Cause if it easy, this is a great find, way cheaper than anything from whole foods or the local farmer market stuff.

I seem to remember doing some research on this a while back and coming to the conclusion that most lamb from Australia is in fact pastured.
I have heard here that half of Australian lamb is pastured, half is grain fed. On the other hand, New Zealand lamb by law is 100% grass fed. Trader Joes and Whole Foods currently have New Zealand lamb in my area.

Agreed... I always buy either New Zealand lamb if no other info is provided because it is pretty much just known that it is clean, or pastured free range 'seal' Colorado lamb when I can... I'll buy Aussie lamb if it has a pastured /free range 'seal'.
However... if Costco is showing that the lamb that they carry is indeed always pastured free-range etc... I'd buy it.
***I just checked the website and it says that it's product sold at ONE local grocery store chain is "100% free-range Australian Lamb is all-natural, grass-fed, pasture-raised and free of artificial additives and hormone growth promotants—a pure product of its pure environment."... the other two local grocery chain stores are not listed in this site... and may buy the cheaper grain fed Aussie lamb from another company instead.
End result: I'll probably be more likely to pick Lamb up at that chain now if my butcher doesn't have Colorado produced equivalent lamb available. I never really manage to get truly local lamb here in FL... it's more of a cabrito friendly area.

And that's why I'm here eating HFLC Primal/Paleo.
This is great news! I have seen the lamb at Costco -6 to 8 one and a half inch thick chops for cheap money. Next time I am going to ask the meat people and confirm that they also know what they are selling, since the website doesn't let me search for retailers in Canada.

I bought for the first time American lamb from the brand Shepherds Pride. It tasted really good but I went to their website and they say the animals are grain finished. I took the time to email them that because of that I will unfortunately need to buy New Zealand produced lamb instead. It's sad and unecological since it travels so far but that's because this country's agriculture is so corrupt and upside down that us, consumers are cornered to buy from overseas. Same for the cheese, I stopped buying from local (VT) Cabot brand (I'm in MA) because they can't guarantee the milk is rBGH free. I now buy pastured rGBH free (and excellent) Kerrygold cheese at Costco instead, rBGH is banned in Europe for good reasons.
If it's New zealand lamb I'm pretty sure it's almost guaranteed to be grass-fed. If it's Australian lamb it is more than likely grass-fed but there's a chance it could be grain finished depending on the season.
Don't know of any feedlots for sheep in Australia. Only time they're grain-fed is in drought on on the way to slaughter

AddersCircular Adders
On some adders, numbers were represented along an arc of a circle. People used their fingers or a stylus to enter numbers. On a few of these instruments, a mechanism allowed one to carry a single digit. These objects are described here as adders with carry. They blur the line between adders and adding machines.
"Adders - Circular Adders" showing 1 items.
Haines Calculating Machine Patent Model
- Description
- This patent model for an adder with a single digit mechanical carry has a wooden base and a circular metal mechanism. At the center is a brass disc that has 100 holes around the outside. Around it is a slightly elevated stationary ring, with the numbers from 1 to 9 engraved around it, representing 10, 20, etc, through 90. Between each of these numbers, smaller digits from 1 up to 9 are engraved. There is a stop at 0.
- We know little about William M. Haines. The 1850 US Census for Rochester, New York, lists "William Hayes," 38 years old, born in New York, who was a clerk living with W. V. K. Lansing, bookkeeper, and his family. The city directories for Rochester mention in 1845 a civil engineer named William Haines, living at 5 Elizabeth. He does not appear in the 1847 or 1849 city directories. In 1851, William Haines is listed as a clerk, with his home on 86 S. St. Paul. From 1853 through 1859, there was a dentist, William M. Haines, with an office at 32 Smith's Arcade. He is not listed in the city directory for 1861, 1863 or 1864, but reappears in 1866 and 1867. He is not found in censuses of the period, nor in later city directories.

This is Week 12 of a 12-Week series of blog posts reviewing new young adult books. To see all of the reviews, click here.
In Kathryn Erskine's "Mockingbird," Caitlin's world is black and white, and she likes it that way, whether it's her view of life or her meticulous monotone drawings. Since The Day Our Life Fell Apart when her brother Devon was killed in a school shooting, she and her widowed father keep to simple routines. This is important to kids like Caitlin, a fifth grader with Asperger's Syndrome. Clear boundaries make it easier to cope, especially when she's trying hard to follow her counselor's advice to Look At The Person and Mind Your Manners.
This is Week 11 of a 12-Week series of blog posts reviewing new young adult books. Check back each Monday for a new review.
The late Philip K. Dick's works were one of the strongest influences on science fiction writers in the first decade of the 21st century, including the fields of alternate history and paranoid thrillers.
We want to see your vacation pics! Post a picture on our Facebook wall between August 1-31 of you & your library book (or video, cd, etc.) on your vacation (or staycation). A random winner will be chosen to receive a CRRL t-shirt. The winner will be announced September 1.
Have fun and be creative!
For science fiction aficionados, the premise of WWW: Wake by Robert J. Sawyer initially sounds, well, perhaps a bit contrived (even beyond the normal contrivances of science fiction). But keep reading: the protagonist, Caitlin Dector, is a young blind millennial who has never known a world without the Internet, a world she can navigate with ease through the use of assistive technologies. Caitlin becomes the subject of an experimental procedure to restore sight. However, when her vision is "switched on" she does not see the physical world, but an abstract representation of the World Wide Web. While exploring her strange new ability, she discovers a growing intelligence emerging from within the Web . . . see what I mean? My first thought after hearing this description was, "That sounds like the plot of a bad 90s Outer Limits episode." After cracking the book open however, I found WWW: Wake tells a fascinating story, blending the best of both science fiction and hard science as well as cyberculture, blind culture, information theory, epidemiology, world politics, family dynamics, pedagogical theory, teenage culture, and probably a few other things I'm not thinking of. All of that in one book. And it's really, really good.
This is Week 10 of a 12-Week series of blog posts reviewing new young adult books. Check back each Monday for a new review.
Beautiful Creatures by Kami Garcia and Margaret Stohl is a page-turning story of star-crossed teenage love with a Southern gothic twist and a side of magic.
In the town of Gatlin, South Carolina, everyone knows everybody's business and nothing exciting ever happens, unless you count the annual re-enactment of a local Civil War battle. Unbeknownst to the residents of Gatlin (at least most residents) beneath the thick Southern accents and Spanish moss lurks a whole other magical world, one of hidden underground libraries, voodoo and deadly family curses.
Lena Duchannes and Ethan Wate bridge the gap between these two worlds - two worlds that were never meant to meet.
This year marks the 65th anniversary of one of the most disastrous and tragic events in the history of humankind. Hiroshima Day is observed in many parts of the world with special vigils and peace marches. It is held to commemorate the dropping of the first atomic bomb on the Japanese city of Hiroshima on August 6, 1945. Watch this video of a survivor describing the Hiroshima bombing. Three days later a second bomb fell on the city of Nagasaki. "Peace Day" was declared on the first anniversary of the bombing of Hiroshima by the Japanese to try to ensure that the horrendous, enduring effects of nuclear warfare would never be repeated.
"Now we see in a glass dimly, but then face to face."
Because you enjoyed the action and adventure in Heroes of the Valley by Jonathan Stroud, I have some other books you may enjoy.
If you haven't read Jonathan Stroud's Bartimaeus Trilogy, you may want to give it a try. In the first book, The Amulet of Samarkand, a magician's apprentice summons the djinni Bartimaeus and instructs him to steal the Amulet from a powerful magician.
Nick of Time by Ted Bell.
Nick McIver is no ordinary boy. He travels through time, fighting pirates and beating Nazis at their own game.
Maggie Stiefvater's Shiver opens during one particularly brutal winter, when the wolves in Mercy Falls, Minnesota are starving. Desperate to eat, they pull an eleven-year-old girl off of her tire swing in her back yard. As they begin to pull at her clothes, she catches the beautiful, golden eyes of one of the wolves and they both connect in an inexplicable way. The golden-eyed wolf saves her life, defending her from the pack.

Program Description:
Continuum of Care (CoC) Programs combine state funds with federal funds obtained from HUD through an annual competitive application to provide homeless assistance services and supported housing programs for primarily long term homeless individuals and families with one or multiple disabilities. Across the Commonwealth there are 19 CoCs eligible to apply for HUD homeless Assistance Funds. Each of the 19 CoCs serves a unique geographic area with HUD asking the state (DHCD) to be responsible for addressing homeless gaps in services in all cities and towns not served by another CoC. DHCD manages 1 of the 19 HUD approved Continuums of Care across the Commonwealth and applies for homeless assistance funds annually as the Balance of State CoC. CoC membership is open to anyone interested in ending homelessness in the CoC's geographic area. Members include other state agencies, many private non-profit homeless service provider organizations, other private non-profit organizations and individuals.
Each year DHCD analyzes the data on homeless persons reported by homeless service providers together with the data collected by local police departments which participate in our annual Point in Time Count of homeless unsheltered persons in the 76 Balance of State communities to identify the most critical needs for services and types of housing. Generally, the most critical need identified is determined to be the ongoing need to move homeless people from the streets and emergency shelters into safe permanent housing with ongoing support services.
Through the CoC DHCD and its partners in ending homelessness:
- fund permanent supported housing for over 600 formerly homeless individuals and families;
- conduct street outreach to homeless people living in a place not meant for human habitation in an effort to get them into a more safe environment;
- work with CoC Members in an efforts to help better coordinate and not duplicate homeless services in the CoC jurisdiction.
- work to maximize the number of housing units to be made available by leveraging other local and state resources to provide the services.
How it works:
A homeless household is identified or self identifies as being homeless with a disabling condition and needing ongoing long term support services to help them keep the housing. Once they move in, a conversation about supported housing begins between the household and the state agency or service provider representative. Once the service needs and housing requirements of the household are identified a process should begin to explore whether there is an appropriate SHP available and if so, the individual or provider can make a referral to the appropriate organization conducting intakes/assessments. Some programs maintain open waiting lists.
Who is eligible?
Homeless individuals and families with a disabling condition and a long term need for ongoing support services to help them get and maintain housing are eligible for Permanent Supportive Housing. The specific eligibility criteria varies by the type of services offered to program participants. Eligibility for may have been funded by HUD specifically to serve homeless veterans. Some were specifically funded to provide permanent supported housing to chronically homeless unaccompanied adults with a disabling condition.
Homeless people living in a place not meant for human habitation are eligible to receive street outreach services in an effort to get them into shelter and housing. There are a variety of programs such as housing stabilization for high risk formerly chronically homeless tenants, employment search and job placement for homeless people.
Application process:
While the waits may be lengthy, persons interested in applying for a CoC funded program of the Balance of State CoC should discuss his or her needs with a local homeless service provider and/or with a worker representing a state agency funded provider that provides services. Applications may be made where waiting lists are open. Follow this link for the Service Provider Listing

There are many different antioxidants, and fruit and vegetables are the best dietary source. Antioxidants act in the body by helping to stop certain chemical reactions which produce substances called free radicals. These substances can cause damage to tissues in the body, which may lead to the development of certain cancers and heart disease.
The antioxidant vitamins are A, C and E. Vitamin A is most commonly found in carrots and dark green vegetables, vitamin C in citrus fruit, peppers and kiwi fruit, and vitamin E in cereals, grains, nuts and vegetables.
Tomatoes are a major source of lycopene, another effective antioxidant. An anomaly is that it appears to be more beneficial when foods rich in lycopene are processed. Tinned tomatoes and tomato puree, for example, are very good sources of lycopene.
In addition to being antioxidants, flavonoids are believed to protect against heart disease in other ways. There are many different flavonoids found in foods, having names such as caffeic, ellegic and ferulic acids. A higher intake of flavonoids has been associated with a reduced risk of cardiovascular disease. Flavonoids are predominantly found in fruit and vegetables, and also in red wine and in tea. A moderate amount of alcohol may protect against heart disease because of the flavonoids present, although this effect may also be due to the way in which alcohol works on certain types of cholesterol. However, excessive intakes of alcohol have the opposite effect, increasing the risk of heart disease.
Garlic and similar foods
Onion, garlic, leeks and chives are known as allium vegetables. These foods contain allyl sulphides that give them their characteristic smell. Research has shown that allyl sulphides may have antiseptic properties, cholesterol lowering effects and may protect against cancer, particularly of the stomach. Studies have shown that in areas where garlic and onion consumption are high, there are low rates of stomach cancer. However, much research is still needed, as it may be that some of the active ingredients are lost in processing garlic into garlic preparations.
Phytoestrogens are substances found naturally in plant foods, particularly pulses, and especially soya-beans. Oat-bran is another source. Research has shown that they may help some of the symptoms of the menopause such as hot flushes, and protect against osteoporosis, heart disease and some types of cancer.
Their action may lie in the way the body metabolises phytoestrogens to produce substances which mimic the hormone oestrogen. During the menopause, oestrogen levels in women start to fall and this can lead to symptoms such as hot flushes. Oestrogen protects bone tissue, which is why women after the menopause are more at risk of osteoporosis.
Research is also looking at the way in which foods rich in phytoestrogens may protect against cancers of the breast, prostate and lungs. There is still more research required to prove the beneficial effects of increasing intake of phytoestrogen foods. However, foods such as oat bran, pulses and soya protein contribute towards a healthy diet in any case.
In the US it has long been common practice to fortify certain foods with vitamins and minerals, such as vitamins in margarine and breakfast cereals. This is often to make up for nutrients which are lost during processing. However, the new range of functional foods are aimed at treating medical conditions. Guidelines now recommend that the new products emerging are backed by scientific evidence, and there are also regulations about the health claims made on products.
Such foods often have to be eaten daily in fixed quantities to achieve the desired results, just like taking a particular drug. For example, margarines which lower cholesterol are only effective if consumed in adequate amounts each day. The cholesterol lowering effect is lost if consumption ceases..
Glycaemic index
This concept has actually been around for many years and describes the effect a carbohydrate food has on blood glucose levels. Carbohydrates can be divided into two groups, namely sugars, including fruit and milk, and starchy foods. All carbohydrate foods are digested into glucose, which is absorbed into the blood stream. Research has shown that different carbohydrate foods are digested and absorbed at different rates.
Foods with a high glycaemic index produce a rapid rise in blood glucose levels after eating, whereas low glycaemic index foods produce a much more gradual rise in the blood glucose.
Starchy foods with a high glycaemic index include potatoes and some breakfast cereals. Foods with a low glycaemic index include pasta, oats and lentils. Further factors which can affect the glycaemic index of a food are the cooking method, the amount of processing the food has undergone, and the other foods eaten with it. For example, eating cheese with bread produces a lower glycaemic index than eating the bread on its own. Furthermore, the effects vary from individual to individual.
It is believed that moving towards a lower GI diet helps individuals with diabetes or related conditions, as one of the main aims of treatment is to prevent a large rise in blood glucose levels after eating. There has also been increasing media coverage suggesting that low glycaemic index foods may help with weight control and blood lipid levels (cholesterol). However, more scientific evidence is required before this is proven.
It is important that high GI foods are not viewed as unhealthy if eaten as part of a balanced diet. There are some foods such as potatoes and certain fruit and vegetables which, although having a high GI value, are healthier choices than some lower GI foods having a higher fat content, such as chocolate.

If you've not yet been to one of Society 1858's parties at the Gibbes Museum of Art, you need to change that.
Society 1858 is an auxiliary group of the Gibbes Museum that is geared toward young professionals and the arts. The Habanero Rhythym Party will be Feb. 8 in celebration of the Gibbes exhibition "Vibrant Vision: The Collection of Jonathan Green and Richard Weedman."
"The auxiliary group's winter party embraces the energy of the dance movement that was brought to Cuba by Haitian refugees in the mid-19th century. The slow and rhythmic dance celebrates African art and music," said Amy Mercer, marketing and communications manager for the Gibbes.
Local artist Green and his partner, Weedman, will be the guests of honor at the event. Expect traditional jazz standards and Latin-influenced world folk music by Leah Suarez as well as a performance by the Garage Cuban Band. Nibble on Latin-inspired food from Moe's Southwest Grill.
"This cutting-edge event provides intimate access to an acclaimed local artist, builds future arts leaders and the opportunity to give back to the Gibbes Museum," Society 1858 President Helen Pratt-Thomas said.
Tickets are $50 for Society 1858 members, $75 for nonmembers, and can be purchased in advance online at www.gibbesmuseum.org/events or by calling 722-2706, ext. 21. Guests must be 21 or over, and tickets will not be sold at the door.
Lara Neece exhibit
Join mixed-media artist Lara Neece from 5-9 p.m. Friday at the Real Estate Studio, 214 King St. for her new collection.
Neece has had an interesting life, especially since graduating from the College of Charleston in 2009. She and her partner, Brian Young, renovated their 37-foot sailboat and sailed up and down the East Coast and the Bahamas.
Her artwork is inspired by the plants, animals and environments she comes into contact with. In 2011, she turned many of these drawings into designs for her eco-friendly clothing line called Forest and Fin.
"My artwork is a collection of imagery drawn from eco-systems that I come in contact with daily or during my travels," Neece said.
She creates these pieces on wood, paper and fabric.
"Each piece is a contained environment or portion of an ecosystem that comments on such themes as natural order, interdependence, balance, evolution and environmental issues.
"Living on a sailboat for three years granted me the opportunity to take a closer look at the wind, tide, weather, and my impact on the plants and animals that share these environments," she explains. "While traveling up and down the southeastern coast of the United States, I saw countless eco-systems operating and interacting with the same set of larger elements in both similar and drastically different ways. From oysters relying on the tide to filter water systems in the Chesapeake Bay to osprey in the Lowcountry of South Carolina using wind currents to travel between small and large bodies of water while hunting fish. In North Carolina, I saw a black bear on the banks of a canal in the early morning hours, and on a sail from the Exumas to Eleuthera in the Bahamas, a sea turtle as big as a Volkswagon. These experiences have illuminated the fine line between life and death, a balanced system and an unbalanced one, and how small changes in these environmental elements can have big effects."
Friday night's reception will include wine and light hors d'oeuvres. Call 722-5618.
'Our Town'
"Beautiful and remarkable; one of the sagest, warmest and most deeply human scripts to have come out of our theater. ... A spiritual experience." This is what the New York Post had to say of the original production of "Our Town" in 1938.
The play won the Pulitzer Prize that year and has been an American classic drama ever since.
Although that time period was plagued with fear, playwright Thornton Wilder made the play's focus the strength and endurance of the human spirit.
"Our Town" will have local performances at 8 p.m. Feb. 7-9 and 14-16 with 3 p.m. matinees on Feb. 10 and 17 at the Footlight Players. Tickets are $25 for adults, $22 for seniors and military, and $15 for students. Student rush tickets are available at the door for $10 at 10 minutes prior to the performance with a valid student ID.
Tickets can be purchased online at www.FootlightPlayers.net or by calling 722-4487.
The play will take place at the Footlight Players Theatre, 20 Queen St.
'Forever Plaid'
This "deliciously goofy revue" will take you back to the '50s, a time when "guy groups" were the top music makers.
Featuring nostalgic hits, watch as The Plaids gets "one last chance to perform the show that never was."
Put on by the Flowertown Players, 133 S. Main St. in Summerville, the show will be at 8 p.m. Thursday-Saturday and Feb. 7-9, with 2 p.m. shows Saturday-Sunday and Feb. 9-10.
Tickets are $25 and can be purchased by calling 875-9251 or online at www.flowertownplayers.org.
"Floral Wave" will be part of a Lara Neece exhibit.×

Street Fighter IV is closely approaching US Console release. It almost feels like it was yesterday when Street Fighter II made it's Super Nintendo debut. I still have calluses on my left hand thumb thanks to Street Fighter II and the SNES directional pad.
As the days get closer and closer to the release of Street Fighter IV, I feel the nerves getting tense. The anxiety is building. This isn't any fighting game release, this is Street Fighter IV. Not Super Duper Street Fighter II' Turbo the New Champions Edition, or Street Fighter Zero Max Double Upper Left Right Down Up Select Start, but a whole new digit in the Street Fighter saga.
I'm a huge fan of Capcom fighting games (Marvel Super Heroes, Street Fighter). I'm not a walking library like Marc, BigMex or even my friend John Yamamoto, but I am a Street Fighter purist. I remember evolving my game thanks to John. Throws used to be taboo untill I realized how easy it was to through, and even take sacrifice hits and throw on the recovery.
With the release of Street Fighter IV, I hope I'll be able to improve my game. Especially since the last time I played IV was at Super Arcade and Mr. Calipower himself (Alex Valle) got a perfect on me... I left the arcade with my head down, but not out.
Here comes a new challenger! Attack me if you dare, I will crush you!
My Street Fighter memory...
One of my fondest memories of Street Fighter gaming has got to be one from a few years back. Street Fighter Alpha Anthology was just released, and I managed to complete what I need to unlock Hyper Street Fighter Alpha. So naturally I invited a few of my Street Fighter buddies over for some Anthology action. Juan (Chilleagle), Erik (XenSoldat), and Issac (Bronson, R.I.P) came over one cool summer night as I hooked up my old TV set in the backyard and surrounded it with chairs. The following video is from one of our matches.

Maltby isn't a ****** though.
Maltby was a total ******. The only thing was that he was OUR ******, and we loved him. He was always stirring s***, being a pest, running his mouth, but never actually backed his words by dropping his gloves.
I love Maltby, but to say he wasn't a ****** is a dis-service to his career of douchebaggery.

Uriah S. Anderson
Title: Assistant Professor of Psychology
Phone: 207-255-1329
Email: email@example.com
Location: 227D Torrey Hall
Office Hours: Click here for PDF
Uriah Anderson received his PhD in social psychology from Arizona State University. His graduate worked focused on evolutionary social cognition, specifically how fundamental social motivations like protecting ourself and our loved ones, finding a mate, making friends, and gaining status influence the ways we perceive and think about others. For example, if we are worried about our physical safety, what types of people do we attend to? Whom do we remember later?
Since joining UMM in 2011, Uriah has taught a wide range of online courses in experimental psychology for the Psychology and Community Studies program. After spending his graduate career focused on such a narrow aspect of psychology, he's excited to have a chance to broaden his focus and teach some of the courses that first attracted him to psychology, like Intro to Psychology and Learning and Memory.
