NEW YORK — Two minutes after 4 o'clock, just before the top of the ninth inning was about to begin, the Mets were going through their mid-inning routine. The game was set to resume when a large lightning bolt cut through the darkening sky in left field, leading to a gasp from the few thousand remaining fans in the seats at Citi Field Saturday. A couple of seconds later, a loud clap of thunder led to another sound.
And then an exodus.
Because down 10 runs to the Pittsburgh Pirates, Mets fans were more than happy to have an excuse to beat the nasty weather home.
"We haven't pitched the way we thought, but we haven't hit the way we thought, either," Mets manager Terry Collins said afterward. "We haven't hit as great."
After a 47-minute rain delay once the afternoon storms rolled in after the top of the ninth inning, the lost afternoon went final — an 11-2 loss to the Pirates — where the was little to cheer about throughout. Before the game, Collins was hoping that the rain wouldn't come earlier to delay or postpone the game, forcing a doubleheader Sunday. He got his wish. But in hindsight, a delay might have been optimal.
Starter Jon Niese was battered around by Pittsburgh's lineup in just 4⅓ innings. Niese allowed eight runs on eight hits — including two home runs, one a two-run shot to outfielder Jose Tabata in the third and the other a solo homer to second baseman Jordy Mercer in the fifth — which ended his day early. (The eight earned runs allowed by Niese tied a career high, set last July against Arizona.)
"It's tough," Niese said. "I've been looking at some video and I'm off mechanically right now. So I've got to come in, look at some video, do some drills and hopefully get back on track."
But Niese wasn't the only Mets pitcher to get tagged on the afternoon.
After Niese (2-4, 5.93 ERA) left the game, the trio of Scott Atchison, LaTroy Hawkins and Robert Carson combined to let the game get completely out of hand. Each reliever allowed one run while on the mound, as Pittsburgh continued to tack runs on the scoreboard. Mercer clubbed another home run in the top of the eighth off Carson — this one a two-run home run — which bounced off of the facade of the second deck in left field.
"It's a pretty big problem, because our bullpen is shot," Collins said. "It's created a major issue for us, where we're going to have to make a move (Sunday) to get somebody here. I'm pretty sure. We had two guys down today and have another two guys down tomorrow. We've got to start getting some quality innings out of our starters."
And while the Mets wait for those quality innings to come, Collins must also figure out what to do with his starting lineup. The offense was once again non-existent Saturday, as Pittsburgh starter Francisco Liriano (1-0), who was making his season debut, struck out nine and held the Mets to just one run on six hits in 5⅓ innings.
Starting today, Collins will slide the struggling Ike Davis back into his natural No. 4 spot in the lineup to try and jump-start something. Lucas Duda, who has also struggled at the plate this season, will also move in the order.
"Obviously, I need to perform," Davis said. "I've done it the majority of my career, batting fourth. And we were winning games, even though I wasn't doing well when I was hitting fourth. So hopefully putting me back there, it starts us getting on a couple of winning streaks or something."

I gave away our high chair this week. The action was mixed with excitement (more room in our cozy NYC apartment!) and sadness (my babies aren't babies anymore!), but I am dealing with it as best I can. It was time, as we've been using a Stokke Tripp Trapp chair and booster seat for a while. On that note, I have to admit I had fun researching this post. From modern to playful, click through for some of the best booster seats on the market!

ATHENS, Alabama – Athens residents who still need to clear downed trees and limbs following the April 28 tornado have until July 11 to place it curbside for pickup. Limestone County will end debris collection outside the city limits on June 23. Read details here.
"The City of Athens is extending its April 28 storm-related vegetative debris pickup deadline to July 11," said city spokeswoman Holly Hollman. "Citizens should place vegetative storm debris in the right-of-way but not in the street and not in the ditch."
Vegetative, or "green" debris, should be separated from construction material, recyclable and appliances, Hollman said.
"After the July 11 date, the city will resume normal trash collection with a limit of up to four cubic yards per resident per week," she said.

It's Time To Learn International Synonyms For Your "Winkle"

ALL SHORES - Staten Island is home to neither knights nor pirates nor sage Jedi masters, but the borough does claim a small army of daring swashbucklers.
On Wednesday nights, sword fighters of all ages come from all parts of the borough for bouts at "The Shack" on 4th Street, off of New Dorp Lane.
Private classes, free lessons for newcomers and an open session for competitive matches attract sabre, foil and epee fighters who enjoy combats of strength, speed and wit.
"En garde," calls Susan Monardo, a coach, the head of the youth division and president for the past 10 years of the Staten Island Fencing Club.
Her two littlest students, 6-year-olds Arianna DiLillo and Paulette Ferretti of Castleton Corners, raise their rubber swords and flick them down in salute.
In this particular 10-second round, Paulette is visibly more focused than her counterpart. She lunges and Arianna giggles as she realizes she's been caught off guard.
"Yeah, I didn't see that coming," says Arianna, doubling her concentration for the next round.
After five touches, the little fencers put down their rubber foils, pull off their bee-keeper-ish helmets and shake hands.
Fencing isn't scary, Arianna says after her lesson: "It makes me feel strong."
Meanwhile, swords are clanking in a fight between coach Ekrem Koblicista of Pleasant Plains, 22, and Vincent Raimondi of Eltingville, a student at Tottenville High School — one of a few Island schools (including Petrides and McKee/Staten Island Tech) with a fencing team. Unlike the younger fencers, they are fighting with steel sabers that register points on a scoreboard when they make contact with conductive jackets, helmets and gloves.
"I come every Wednesday for an hour to practice the different moves I know," said Raimondi. "You need confidence to be a good fencer, and you get that from your teammates rooting for you and teaching you new things."
Koblista, who recently earned a D-ranking from the United States Fencing Association, brings a new, competitive edge to the fencing club, said Ms. Monardo.
He got involved in the sport at Tottenville High School, and now fences in competitive tournaments with the USFA, an organization he said is a passport to fencing anywhere in the world.
The Staten Island Fencing Club offers opportunities to fence year-round and maintain skills acquired during school seasons, said Malcolm Lewis of Port Richmond, a McKee High School student who fences with Staten Island Tech.
For other fencers, the sport offers an athletic outlet that's more exciting than the gym.
"I come for the open sessions and I like how it keeps me fit without me knowing it," said Crystal Urraco, assistant coach of Tottenville's girls' team.
Zabrina Wombie of Sunnyside arrived last week for her first lesson, attracted by the discipline required of martial arts.
"It's a fun way to get into shape and fine-tune your motor skills," said Ray Soffer of Concord, 43, who also came for his first lesson since high school last week. "Every week I've been saying I'd come do this — for about a year. I finally did it."
He took lessons from Coach Stephen Khinoy, head coach and the founder of the club that was established in 1980. The club has offered lessons at the New Dorp Scout Shack for the past five years.
The Staten Island Fencing Club offers individual and group lessons for fencers of all ages and skill levels.
Group classes start at $195 for eight weeks.
Students interested in a free introductory lesson may contact the club at firstname.lastname@example.com or 718-273-0633.

HOUGHTON - Kevin Luke believes that Ben Stelzer does not suffer through shooting slumps.
The Michigan Tech men's basketball coach insists that if Stelzer's shooting percentage drops over a period of games, it is a mirage. There is something wrong with the axis of the earth, not the junior guard.
An eccentric statement? Sure.
Article Photos
Michigan Tech's Ben Stelzer spots up from long range during the second half of Wednesday's GLIAC?Tournament quarterfinal against Grand Valley St. at the SDC?Gym. He had eight threes and a career-high 34 points as Tech won 78-72.
But if Wednesday's quarterfinal performance over Grand Valley serves as any indication of what Luke sees on a daily basis, the veteran head coach can be excused for outlandish thinking.
Stelzer gave the 1,062 in attendance at the SDC a show they will never forget. Nor will Grand Valley.
The junior lit up the Lakers for a career-high 34 points, draining 8-of-10 threes - including his first five attempts in the game - with two absurd step-back jumpers and a three-pointer in the final four minutes to set the floor for Austin Armga's heroics.

Halftime score: Tech 44, GVSU 34
With the game tied at 72-72, Armga then finished the job, coolly canning a 15-foot pull-up on an isolation play to give the Huskies a two-point lead with 46 seconds remaining. Armga followed the shot with a loose-ball steal, and Stelzer's four free throws ended the Lakers season 78-72, sending he Huskies to Findlay for a GLIAC semifinal match with Malone Saturday.
"That was unbelievable," Armga said. "You can put five guys on him if he is hitting those shots and it won't matter. We were so pumped for him, that was a game of the life time. We were just standing there in awe watching Ben go off. Unbelievable."
"I was feeling pretty good by the end there," Stelzer added. "It's March Madness for a reason."
Stelzer, named to the second-team All-GLIAC earlier in the week, had shot just 31 percent from three in his previous six games, including his two lowest point totals of the season.
Any confidence crisis was clearly solved by the final five minutes though, with Stelzer showing off a step-back (twice) that Allen Iverson thought was unfair.
"They were really trying to pressure us," Stelzer said. "I had some opportunities to get to the hoop a bit, but I don't have quite the first step Austin does, so I use those step-backs a little to clear some space."
After Alex Culy's rebound and pass to Stelzer gave the junior two more free throws with 10 seconds remaining, Stelzer let out a roar and pounded the ball in quick succession to a crowd in the midst of a standing ovation. Culy skipped gleefully down the court, facing the Husky faithful with his arms raised in triumph.
"I was just happy the game was finally over," Stelzer said. "You try to keep your emotion in check, but there are times where you need to let a little bit out."
Of course, all of Stelzer's heroics would have been for naught without Armga's shot-steal combo at the end.
The 15-foot pull-up - going left, off one dribble, as is Armga's preference - made up for a mediocre shooting night that saw the senior finish with 14 points on 4-of-12 shooting in his final career game at the SDC.
"We have run that play, I don't know, maybe once all year," Armga said. "Yesterday in practice we were running it though. So coach called the play, I just had to make the shot. it's probably not a secret anymore that I like going left."
"That was as big as any shot I hit the whole game," Stelzer added. "That was some mental toughness there, just Austin being Austin."
The Huskies needed every bucket Stelzer could give them Wednesday night to survive in a contest that was overly-physical, even by GLIAC standards.
Grand Valley kept pace with the Huskies for 39 minutes - overcoming a 10-point halftime deficit in the process - thanks to 17 offensive rebounds as the athletic Lakers pounded Tech's four-guard lineup on the glass, zone and man-to-man. Six-foot-7 power forward Chas Rollins led the way, netting 16 points with nine offensive rebounds on the night.
Only a steal from Troy Hecht with under two minutes to play and Armga's clutch theft hindered the Lakers in crunch time.
"I have never seen anything like that," Armga said. "Just trying to get open was a battle. The stuff they got away with. Wow. That was GLIAC playoff basketball."
That physicality spilled everywhere on the defensive end as well, with Stelzer and Armga pushed, pulled, barred and every other pushing-the-envelope physicality edge Grand Valley defenders could think of.
It makes Stelzer's 34 points even more impressive than meets the eye because after the initial three triples, Lakers coach Ric Wesley threw every scheme he could dream up to stop Stelzer at the Huskies. Five times Stelzer split double-teams or dribbled past aggressive defenders to pick up an assist.
"That was one of the things I thought was affecting my percentage a bit these last (six) games, just creating some more space with the screens," Stelzer said. "I wanted to get better using those screens, catching the defense more off-guard."
"He put us on his shoulders," Luke added. "He would not let this team lose tonight. The one thing he did this week besides extra shooting was watch a lot of film. He is a guy you want to go to battle with."

Gary Forbes made a big splash in his NBA Summer League debut in Las Vegas Monday night.
The former University of Massachusetts forward, who played in the D-League last year, scored 20 points in 21 minutes for the D-League Select Team, which edged Minnesota 96-91 in its first game.
Forbes played for the Philadelphia-New Jersey team in the NBA's Orlando summer league last week. He is competing for a roster spot with the 76ers, who do not have their own team in Las Vegas.
On Monday, Forbes came off the bench and hit 9 of 16 shots, and had four rebounds, three steals, two assists and one blocked shot.
He shared team scoring honors with Othyus Jeffers (Robert Morris) for the D-League team, a collection of unsigned players from last year's minor league circuit.
Another former UMass forward played his third Summer League game in Las Vegas Monday. Tony Gaffney scored three points in nine minutes for the Los Angeles Lakers, who lost 93-82 to the rival Clippers.
In three games, Gaffney is averaging 12 minutes, 3.0 points and 2.0 rebounds per game. Most of his playing time came in his first game, when he scored six points in 22 minutes.
The Lakers were to play Oklahoma City Tuesday night. Forbes' D-League team returns to action Wednesday against Sacramento.

will this reduce or eliminate the oder? My shirts are so hard to wash because I use deoderant to mask the oder. I am 16 years old. I exfoliate, shave and scrub. I tried drysol, it iritated my skin and every deoderant and anti persperant that I can find. Please help. What else can I do?
My Question is Regarding Miradry. Odor is More my Problem than Sweat. Will This Procedure Help?

MiraDry procedure helps sweat and armpit odor
#miraDry uses electromagnetic energy (safe microwaves)
which is proven to be the ideal method for treating the sweat and odor glands in the underarm. It creates targeted heat in the area where glands reside and safely eliminates them. The advanced design of the miraDry system continuously cools your skin during treatment for added comfort and safety. miraDry

Possibly effective
2 treatments are needed, spaced 3 months apart.
Effective Treatment
Miradry is FDA approved for both odor and sweat reduction. The real advance with this procedure is that it is minimally invasive with very little downtime and has approximately an 80-85% reduction with two treatments. The results are permanent and unless a patient wants more reduction, third treatment, there is no need to repeat treatments.
Surgical options are available but have significant downtime and risks and the neurotoxins like Botox are temporary requiring multiple treatments.
MiraDry for Sweat and Odor Reduction
Miradry is a great treatment for you. It is the only FDA approved sweat and odor reducing procedure available on the market. The microwave technology targets the eccrine (sweat) glands and the aprocrine (odor) glands in the underarms. Two treatments are recommended usually 3 months apart.
Dr. Grant Stevens Marina Plastic Surgery Associates Marina del Rey, CA The Institute

MiraDry for underarm sweat and odor
Yes, the MiraDry procedure helps eliminate odor related to sweat, which is also known as bromhidrosis. The MiraDry procedure utilizes microwave technology to selectively target and eliminate sweat glands in the armpits by focusing electromagnetic waves at a specific level in the body where sweat glands are located. MiraDry is the only device on the market that is able to eliminate both eccrine (normal sweat) apocrine ("smelly" sweat) glands. Botox injections also work to help decrease (non-smelly) sweating, but results are more temporary as injections need to be repeated every 4-6 months with Botox effects wearing off near the end of that time frame. MiraDry is the only FDA-approved procedure that offers long-lasting results and the only procedure that has been shown in studies to treat "smelly" sweat. Studies demonstrate that results last up to 2 years and are likely permanent as sweat glands do not regenerate. At the present time, both Botox and MiraDry are only approved for those 18 years of age and older.

Troupe being interviewed at Summit School
Our thanks to the Revolutionary America troupe for their visit on March 8. What an insightful and meaningful way for students to learn American history!
Summit School April 5, 2011 at 2:42 pm
Time Travel to Revolutionary America visited Summit Schools in Cedar Rapids on March 8, 2011. They explained and acted out what was happening in Revolutionary America. I believe that the 4th grade and 5th grade enjoyed Ben Franklin, Samuel Adams, the Loyalist, and John Adams. They all did a great job of performing.
Summit School April 5, 2011 at 2:44 pm
Before the Time Travel troupe arrived we read three chapters in our social studies book called Our Nation which talked about taxation without representation, the first battles of the American Revolution and the Declaration of Independence.
Summit School April 5, 2011 at 2:47 pm
Benjamin Franklin was a representative for the colony of Pennsylvania. He was sent to England to negotiate. There he was made a giant laughingstock. After he started to fear for his own life, he fled back to the colonies. He returned to riots in the streets and lots more taxes. When he returned he changed his view on the king's taxes. Later with the help of John Adams, Thomas Jefferson, Roger Sherman, and Robert Livingston, he wrote and edited the Declaration of Independence, and after it was finished he signed it.
Summit School April 5, 2011 at 2:50 pm
On the day of March 6, 1770 John Adams defended some British soldiers who were in the Boston Massacre. When one of the solderiers was knocked over and his gun just fired one shot randomly. Then the rest fired their guns. At court the general asked John Adams to help and he did. Later in his life he worked on the Declaration of Independence with Thomas Jefferson, Ben Franklin, and George Washington.
Summit School April 5, 2011 at 2:53 pm
Samuel Adams, in my opinion, was a loud man. He seemed to have many opinions and had many outbursts. He also had many good facts. I enjoyed hearing both his opinions and facts. To me it seemed he despised the British and wanted them to be destroyed and out of America. I found the facts that I learned from the Time Travel to Revolutionary Times very interesting.
Summit School April 5, 2011 at 3:07 pm
The Loyalist talked to us about why she was loyal. She thought King George's taxes that were put on the colonies were fair. He was using the money from the taxes to pay for the French and Indian War. Later, she talked about when King George sent 2,000 troops into the colonies. The loyalist would send their kids to England to get educated.
I thought it was interesting when they came.
Summit School April 5, 2011 at 3:17 pm
On 3-8-11 a group of important historical figures came to the future. They gave us speeches on the beginning of American Revolution, Declaration of Independence, and the Constitution. They started off with the American Revolution, described in the different opinions of Benjamin Franklin, Samuel Adams, his cousin John Adams, and a loyalist woman. They went on to talk about the American Constitution. Six students asked questions about our rights including freedom of speech, freedom of religion, right to assemble, and right of a fair trial. They ended with some nice compliments. It wsa a great performance.
Summit School April 5, 2011 at 3:20 pm
In my opinion this is a very interesting way to learn. It's a lot more fun that watching some video with a historian rambling on and on about the person they are talking about. This was much more interesting because the man dressed up as Ben Franklin really did look like Ben Franklin himself! The booming voice from Sam Adams was very interesting as well. It is also much more interesting than a textbook.

'Baby Falak' Chapter 2: A New Life Unravels
By Paul Beckett And Krishna Pokharel
[This Wall Street Journal reconstruction is running in serialized form. A new chapter will be posted each morning this week on India Real Time. Read Chapters One , Three, Four, Five and Six.]
Harpal Singh would appear to be a young man of some prospects, a good catch. In 2007, he graduated with a degree in economics and political science from a college in Jhunjhunu, a town in the western Indian state of Rajasthan, near where he lives with his parents and brother. He has trained to be an electrician but farms wheat and mustard seed on his family land. He owns a tractor and earns up to 20,000 rupees ($360) a month. The family are Jaats, conservative Hindus.
But Mr. Singh also can cite the problem that prompted him to jump at the chance, no questions asked, of marrying Munni Khatoon, the young woman from Bihar who was sent to be his bride: There aren't enough local women for the local men to marry.

The Capitoline Hill (Italian: il Campidoglio) is one of the Seven Hills of Rome.
Several important Roman temples were built atop the hill, including the Temple of Juno, the Temple of Virtus, and the Temple of Jupiter Optimus Maximus. In 79, the hill was also home to the Tabularium, the Empire's main archive. In the Middle Ages, it became the city's center of civic government just before receiving a face lift from Michelangelo.

WEST WINDSOR — Numerous questions arose during the James E. Cryan Memorial Tournament men's open singles final at Mercer County Park yesterday.
Is it okay to call a foot fault at a crucial point in the match?
Was a deep ball hit by Yevgeny Supeko on match point really out, or was the overrule call correct?
Did anyone expect the momentum shift that occurred after the first set?
There was drama and excitement during the match, but third seed Chris Chirico, 23, stood alone after two hours and seven minutes as the 35th champion in 46 years.
After a decisive 6-2 first-set win by Supeko, 25, who was attempting to defend his 2010 title, the momentum shifted to Chirico, who won the next two sets, 6-1, 6-2.
With exhaustion and frustration slowing Supeko s Chirico stepped up his game.
"I started a little slow,'' Chirico said.
"I iust missed a couple crucial shots. In the second set, I knew the game I wanted to play. Once I got the break in the second, I felt my game."
Chirico's wanted to move Supeko and play his backhand. When Supeko came to the net, he wanted a two-ball pass while making him volley first.
Supeko's serve was broken in the first game of the decisive third set, which prompted him to throw his racket into the net. He was penalized a point for racket abuse.
Chirico raced to a 5-0 lead, but Supeko won the next three games.
Supeko was ahead in the ninth game but Chirico took it to deuce.
Supeko saved one match point and was stunned when the umpire called him on a foot fault. That set up a second match point, which was called out by Chirico but overruled by the umpire.
Supeko then double faulted to set up match point No. 3, which Chirico won on a deep lob.
"In the first set, I was energized and ready to go. But then I ran into a wall physically, Supeko said.
Both players had world rankings as ATP tour players and played for Texas A&M.
In other results:
• Evan Samet won the men's B singles crown, squeaking by Brandon Frank in three sets.
• In mixed B doubles, the father-daughter team of Jessica and Gary Mao won over Charles Rushing and Maddie Stoner, also in three sets.
• In open men's doubles, Supeko teamed with Ilia Shatashvili to defeat Jeremy Eckardt and James Vance, 6-1, 6-4.
Men's open singles: Chris Chirico, Cranford d. Yevgeny Supeko, Englishtown, 2-6, 6-1, 6-2.
Men's open doubles:Ilia Shatashvili, Princeton, and Yevgeny Supeko, Englishtown, d. Jeremy Eckardt, Belle Mead, and James Vance, Yardley, 6-1; 6-4.
Men's B singles: Evan Samet, Princeton Junction d. (2) Brandon Frank, Princeton Junction, 0-6, 6-3, 4-1 (retired).
Mixed B doubles: Gary-Jessica Mao, Plainsboro d. (5) Charles Rushing, Yardley, and Maddie Stoner, Ewing, 6-2, 1-6, (10-7).

We provide the full range of assisted living care, which includes a separate and secure memory care wing.

Our staff is trained and supervised to give excellent personalized assistance where it is needed while still being committed to encouraging self help whenever possible.
At Hearthstone Manor we love our seniors!
We're the perfect size, too; small enough to feel like a family, and just big enough that there is always someone around to help. Hearthstone Manor is in Spanish Fork, Utah and is fully operated by the owners, who have solid backgrounds in health care.

At Hearthstone Manor we like to make things easier for you so you can know from Day One what your monthly rate will be.
It's easier for us, too. Rather than spend our time trying to figure out how much we can charge you, according to the amount of care given, our focus is all about just giving our residents exceptional care!

The epistle of James warns "let not many of you become teachers, knowing that we shall receive a stricter judgment." If a teacher leads us astray ignorance will not excuse him or her from a beating. Jesus said the servant who knows God's will and does not do it shall be beaten with many stripes, and the one who did not know and committed things worthy of stripes shall be beaten with few stripes. God will discipline us before he delivers us because he is not willing that any should perish, including the ministers who lead his people astray.

SPRINGFIELD - State and local police seized two handguns and more than 22 pounds of marijuana while attempting to serve an arrest warrant at a residence in East Forest Park Thursday, police said.
The man named in the arrest warrant was not home when police arrived at 30 Westbanks Court. Police arrested three residents who were home and issued a court summons to a fourth.
Harold A. Johnson, 24, and Kendrick Blackwell, 17, were charged with marijuana possession with intent to distribute. Johnson was also charged with two counts of possession of a firearm without a license to carry, two counts of possession of ammunition without a firearms identification card, and a single count of improper storage of a firearm.
A third resident, Shannon Blackwell, no age given, will be summoned to court possession of marijuana. Police did not take her into custody because she was caring for a 10-month old child.
A fourth resident, Harold Johnson Sr., was arrested on an outstanding warrant.
The name of the suspect sought in the arrest warrant was not released.
While searching the house for that suspect, police could see several clear plastic bags of marijuana and drug paraphernalia out in the open.
Officers then sought a district court search warrant for the property, and discovered 22 one-pound bags of marijuana in a bedroom closet, one handgun in a safe and another under a mattress.
Participating in the action were members of the Springfield police warrant apprehension section and gang task force, and the state police violent fugitive apprehension section.

J.P Morgan has downgraded Amazon shares from overweight to neutral.
It is afraid the e-commerce company's gross profit growth is going to slow sharply this year and its margins will shrink.
Amazon is currently in the process of transitioning from first party sales to third party sales, so its gross profit is more important than revenue right now. In other words, "Amazon's future is not selling stuff (directly)," as Wired recently wrote.
But analysts think third-party sales will be moderate in 2013, and that margins will get tighter as Amazon sells more devices like Kindles which are costly to create. Amazon's gross profit grew 40 percent in 2012, but analysts think it could decelerate to 31% in 2013.
Amazon also faces stiff competition from both hardware providers like Apple and rising e-commerce companies, which J.P. Morgan has taken into account.

A first step towards the creation of a 'global trends community' took place on 18 and 19 February, when foresight experts from the EU and beyond gathered in Brussels for a conference hosted by the European Strategy and Policy Analysis System (ESPAS).
The keynote opening speech to an audience of over 200 was delivered by the President of the European Commission, José Manuel Barroso. In his remarks, President Barroso described international cooperation in foresight work as a "necessary step" adding, "Forward thinking is a precondition for forward planning and for the decisions of today."
ESPAS Taskforce Acting Chairman James Elles MEP underlined the purpose of ESPAS in his welcoming speech [15 KB] . He said, "This exercise is not so much about predicting outcomes as identifying long-term trends on specific factors. Clearly, realising the direction of trends will allow policy makers to change direction if they do not like what the outcome is likely to be."
The Secretary General of the European Parliament, Klaus Welle, signified his commitment to the ESPAS process and said that through the four participating organisations it had the ambition to "develop a kind of world view" that could be offered to the incoming Presidents of the European institutions in 2014.
A global trends community?
Director of Chatham House Robin Niblett chaired a panel of leading trends experts on the first day of the conference. Dr Niblett said the panel brought together perspectives from Europe, India, Russia, China, the US and Singapore that gave a sense of how strategic thinking and horizon scanning is being undertaken in key capitals around the world.
Margaritis Schinas for the European Commission underlined the Commission's commitment to the project, and outlined some of the key issues around the future of global governance. In particular, he focused on how to move from diagnosis to prescription in a world of paradox and interdependence.
Ruan Zongze, Vice President and senior research fellow at the China Institute of International Studies, called for countries to look forward and identify opportunities together, rather than waiting for a crisis to become a driver of change.
Counsellor to the US National Intelligence Council (NIC) Mathew Burrows talked of his strong support for increased international collaboration in foresight. Indeed, he recalled that during preparation of their Global Trends 2030 report published last December, the NIC gathered input from some 20 countries.
India also recognised the importance of working with other countries. "Empirical research on trends becomes more accurate the more views or aspirations it encompasses," Sunjoy Joshi of New Delhi's Observer Research Foundation told the conference. Experts from Russia and Singapore also signalled a willingness to work together on identifying long-term trends on specific factors.
Debating the future
During the conference break-out sessions, delegates debated the topics covered by the three ESPAS inter-institutional working groups: the economy; society; and governance and power. On the economy, participants agreed that technology was likely to be a driver of growth in the long run. The combination of nanotechnology and cognitive technologies could lead to major advances in healthcare, for example.
Discussions on society focused on the impact of social media, the rise of a global middle class and whether the empowerment of individuals could affect the nation state.
Likewise, the risk of a global governance deficit and the impact of new governance formats, such as the G20, were discussed.
Views from the institutions
Klaus Welle, Secretary General of the European Parliament, talked about the ESPAS partners joining their efforts to produce a report for 2014 that would offer not only a joint reflection but also some policy options to the incoming Presidents of the Parliament, Council and Commission.
Jean-Claude Thébault, Director General of BEPA, European Commission emphasised how good progress had been made on the operational side of ESPAS. He said that the project must be about offering effective analysis and policy options for the leadership of the European institutions.
David O'Sullivan, Chief Operating Officer of the EEAS, said that ESPAS was a very useful and worthwhile exercise. He hoped it could be taken forward by developing the inter-institutional dimension and, in particular, the international networking aspect.
Jim Cloos, Deputy Director General at the General Secretariat of the EU Council of Ministers, commented that the EU needs to be better at policy shaping and reacting to events. Therefore the development of ESPAS was welcome not only for the inter-institutional dimension but also as an incentive to think beyond day-to-day issues,
In addition to high-level officials from key EU institutions (Commission, Parliament, Council Secretariat, European External Action Service), the event was attended by academics, NGOs and business representatives as well as think tank leaders from around Europe and at least eight non-EU countries.

My favorite way of eating corn is when I insert my knife deeply into the cooked cob, then slide the blade down, so that the corn is removed from the cob in a long sheaths, instead of individual kernels. Sometimes the cob obliges (especially at this time of the year, when corn is juicy and tender), and sometimes it doesn't; the kernels rain down in individual pellets.
Corn sheaths also make pretty garnishes when resting atop a salad of which corn is an ingredient. I had Southwest seasonings on hand, but use whatever spices you need to use up in your pantry.
For a more elaborate corn recipe, check out this recipe for Grilled Mexican Street Corn, or
click here for additional scrumptious recipes using fresh Michigan corn.
Yield: 4 servings
Time: 15 minutes
2-3 large ears of corn with big kernels
1 tablespoon butter, optional
Several pinches Southwest seasoning mixture
1 tablespoon chopped cilantro
1 tablespoon chopped red onion
Lime wedges
1. Boil corn until tender In a big pot of salted water. Drain in a colander, and when cool enough to handle. dig a sharp knife into tip of corn and press down the cob so that the corn comes off in a sheath.
2. Top sheath with butter, if using, and season with kosher salt, freshly ground pepper, butter (if using), seasoning mix, cilantro and red onion. Pass the lime wedges.

HUNTSVILLE, Alabama -- A number of defense systems with Huntsville ties have been carefully positioned as North Korea made its very public preparations to launch a three-stage rocket.
The country's leaders claim the Taepodong-2 rocket is designed to put a satellite into orbit. But - if it works this time - that would mean North Korea's technology is also able to deliver a warhead just about anywhere.
CNN's "Security Clearance" and Popular Mechanics are among the many web sites outlining the implications of the launch. They also mention the satellites, giant Sea-based X-Band Radar and both sea- and land-based interceptor missiles Japan and the U.S. have at the ready to shoot down a threatening North Korean missile.
"Missile defense works in layers. The first layer is a fight in space, led by Japanese destroyers armed with SM-3 interceptors," according to the Popular Mechanics post.
Those Standard Missile 3 interceptors aboard U.S. and Japanese Aegis destroyers are made by Raytheon. And a version of those SM-3 missiles will soon be put together at the $75 million plant the company is building on Redstone Arsenal.
"In case something should go awry and the missile veers off path or the payload appears to be something other than a satellite, the Aegis ships in the region and U.S. land-based interceptors are on alert to try to shoot down the North Korean rocket if necessary," according to CNN's Security Clearance. "Japan also has its Patriot missiles on standby to take defensive measures."
Lockheed Martin and Boeing in Huntsville are both involved in Patriot production; Lockheed is developer of the ship-based Aegis Weapons System. And Boeing is prime contractor for the Ground-based Midcourse Defense system of land-based interceptors protecting the U.S. from silos at Fort Greeley, Alaska, and Vandenberg Air Base in California.
The Missile Defense Agency, which bases most of its program offices on the arsenal, is responsible for all those "layers" of the U.S. Ballistic Missile Defense System.

ATLANTA — Lil Wayne is facing a year behind bars in February, but don't expect either the rapper or his label, Cash Money, to fall off the radar in his absence.
Birdman, who is the co-founder of Cash Money, already has a plan in place to keep both the label and rap's top-selling artist in the limelight. Birdman recently released his own album, "Pricele$$," and a new Lil Wayne CD is planned for release soon; albums by rappers Drake and Bow Wow are to come early next year. They also have the hot singer Jay Sean, who had a No. 1 hit with Lil Wayne, "Down."
Still, Birdman's biggest concern isn't about Cash Money — he's grappling with how to deal with the pending imprisonment of Lil Wayne, who pleaded guilty last month to an illegal weapons charge. Birdman discovered the 27-year-old rapper at age 11 and often refers to him as "my son."
Q. What is the premise behind your CD's first single, "Always Strapped," featuring Lil Wayne and Mack Maine?
A. My philosophy for "Strapped" ain't just about a gun. You could be strapped about life. I think people just took to it. The music and beat was hot, the content of the song. All of it.
Q. Where do you see yourself fitting in the rap paradigm — obviously Lil Wayne is on top. Do you care anymore?
A. I love to still do it. I could be doing a lot of other things. But I love being an artist. I love the other things like dealing with my son Wayne and his music. It's half and half.
Q. Lil Wayne emerged as the best-selling figure in music after last year's success of "Tha Carter III." Now, he'll have to spend a year in jail. How do you think being incarcerated will effect his career?
A. My son is the most rapping (expletive) on earth. But at this point, I don't care about that. Forget rap. It's about him right now. I got to deal with a situation I've never had to deal with in my life. It ain't cool with me, but we have to live through it.
Q. After Lil Wayne left the courthouse, what kind of advice did you give him?
A. To keep doing what he loves — music. That's the only thing we've got. You take that away from us, we really don't need to live. Music, that's the only thing that gets the stress off your mind to make you feel better. It's how good it sounds after you've done it. The enjoyment of it.
Q. Will Lil Wayne continue to release music while he's in jail?
A. Of course. I don't know how many, bruh. It's up to him. It's his world. My son is his own boss. Whatever he wants to do, we'll back him up.
Q. Lil Wayne is easily the mainstay for Cash Money. When he's gone, will your record label suffer?
A. Not as a company. But we will suffer in losing my son Wayne, who we love. Him as a person means more to me than anything.
Q. Up-and-coming rapper Drake is becoming more popular. Do you see him being a bigger star than Lil Wayne?
A. Drake is already a superstar.
Q. But as big as Wayne?
A. That's 20 years from now. Hopefully, he'll be bigger. That's what we're striving for. We ain't tripping. We're working hard for him to be bigger than anyone else. We want the best for him.
Q. How does Cash Money compare to other rap label empires?
A. Now, I don't see any top labels. I look around and see all those people who did it before me. To me, the labels, I don't see no company with constant success with a clique. At some point, there was a lot of people doing this. It used to be crowded. I see a lot of people who have done it, and now don't see them.

Cleveland Browns visit the Pittsburgh Steelers: Who wins? (poll) -- Monday Browns Blast

CLEVELAND, Ohio -- The Cleveland Browns play the Steelers on Sunday in Pittsburgh, wrapping up the 2012 season for both AFC North teams.
Cleveland is 5-10 following its 34-12 loss to the Broncos in Denver. The Browns are finishing what has become, unfortunately, a routine season for them. It's their fifth straight losing campaign and 12th in 14 years since rejoining the NFL as a franchise in 1999.
Pittsburgh is not in a customary position, out of the playoffs for just the fourth time in the last 12 years. The Steelers were eliminated from postseason contention with their 13-10 home loss to the Cincinnati Bengals on Sunday.
Part of the Steelers' demise can be attributed to the Browns. Cleveland defeated Pittsburgh, 20-14, on Nov. 25 at Browns Stadium, as the Steelers had to play third-string quarterback Charlie Batch in place of injured Ben Roethlisberger and backup Byron Leftwich. Pittsburgh committed eight turnovers in the contest -- the Browns' second win in their last 18 games against the Steelers.
The Browns have scored 19.5 points per game and given up 22.9. Pittsburgh is scoring 20.8 points and allowing 20.3 points per game.
The Browns began this season with five losses: 17-16 to the Philadelphia Eagles at Browns Stadium; 34-27 to the Bengals in Cincinnati; 24-14 to the Buffalo Bills in Cleveland; 23-16 to the Ravens in Baltimore; 41-27 to the Giants in New York.
Then, the Browns posted their first win, 34-24, over the Bengals at Browns Stadium. They lost to the host Indianapolis Colts, 17-13, in Week 7, then defeated the San Diego Chargers, 7-6, in Cleveland. Following their bye week, the Browns lost at home, 25-15, to Baltimore. They then lost to the Cowboys, 23-20 in overtime, at Dallas before returning home for the 20-14 win over Pittsburgh. The Browns followed with a 20-14 win over the Raiders in Oakland and a 30-7 home victory over the Kansas City Chiefs. They then lost to the Washington Redskins, 38-21, in Cleveland before Sunday's 34-12 loss at Denver.
Pittsburgh opened its season with a 31-19 loss at Denver, then a 27-10 home win over the New York Jets. The Steelers lost at Oakland, 34-31, before a 16-14 win over the Eagles in Pittsburgh and a 26-23 loss to the Titans in Tennessee.
Then, the Steelers won four straight games: 24-17 over the host Bengals and 27-12 over the Redskins in Pittsburgh; 24-20 over the Giants in New York; 16-13 over the Chiefs, at home in overtime.
Pittsburgh then lost at home, 13-10, to Baltimore, before the 20-14 defeat in Cleveland. The Steelers then posted a 23-20 win at Baltimore, before losing their last three games: 34-24 to the visiting Chargers; 27-24 at Dallas in overtime; Sunday's 13-10 loss to the Bengals in Pittsburgh.

Vestal, NY (WBNG Binghamton) A craft fair at Vestal High School is aimed at assisting graduating seniors fund their college tuition.
Over 95 vendors littered the halls and cafeteria at Vestal High. Everything from baked goods, to pottery, wood crafts, and knitting items were available.
All the proceeds from the event will go to the Dollars for Scholars fund, which will give $500 scholarships to various individuals at the end of the year.
"It's an awesome turnout. The weather, I think, is cooperating. At least it's mild out. And we've had a constant flow of people," said Marge Corse, one of the organizers.
Organizers are hoping for at least seven scholarships this year, or about $3,500.
Last year they were very pleased to be able give out 10 scholarships.
The school has been hosting the craft fair for over 20 years.

An African bishop of the Province of Byzacena (called VITENSIS from his See of Vita), b. probably about 430. His importance rests on his "Historia pesecutionis Africanae Provinciae, temporibus Geiserici et Hunirici regum Wandalorum". This is mainly a contemporary narrative of the cruelties practised against the orthodox Christians of Northern Africa by the Arian Vandals. Formerly divided into five books, this work is now usually edited in three, of which the first, dealing with the reign of Geiseric (427-77), is derived from the accounts of others, while the second and third, covering the reign of Huneric, are a strictly contemporary account of events, of which the author was in the main an eyewitness. No exception can be taken to the accuracy of Victor's narratives, except that at all times he exaggerates, but when allowance is made for the stress of feeling under which the work was written, it can be seen that he records little that did not happen. Victor throws much light on social and religious conditions in Carthage and on the African liturgy of the period. His history contains many valuable documents not otherwise accessible, e.g. the Confession of Faith drawn up for the orthodox bishops by Eugenius of Carthage and presented to Huneric at the conference of Catholic and Arian bishops in 484. Two documents: a "Passio beatissimorum martyrum qui apud Carthaginem passi sunt sub impio rege Hunerico (die VI. Non. Julias 484)" and a "Notitia Provinciarum et Civitatum Africae ", formerly appended to all the manuscripts and now incorporated in the printed editions, are probably not Victor's. The former may be the work of one of his contemporaries; the latter is a list of the Catholic bishops summoned to the conference of 484, arranged according to provinces, with an exact indication of the ecclesiastical geography of that portion of Africa.
The Catholic Encyclopedia is the most comprehensive resource on Catholic teaching, history, and information ever gathered in all of human history. This easy-to-search online version was originally printed between 1907 and 1912 in fifteen hard copy volumes.
Designed to present its readers with the full body of Catholic teaching, the Encyclopedia contains not only precise statements of what the Church has defined, but also an impartial record of different views of acknowledged authority on all disputed questions, national, political or factional. In the determination of the truth the most recent and acknowledged scientific methods are employed, and the results of the latest research in theology, philosophy, history, apologetics, archaeology, and other sciences are given careful consideration.
No one who is interested in human history, past and present, can ignore the Catholic Church, either as an institution which has been the central figure in the civilized world for nearly two thousand years, decisively affecting its destinies, religious, literary, scientific, social and political, or as an existing power whose influence and activity extend to every part of the globe. In the past century the Church has grown both extensively and intensively among English-speaking peoples. Their living interests demand that they should have the means of informing themselves about this vast institution, which, whether they are Catholics or not, affects their fortunes and their destiny.

Besides being the treasurer, Cairns also served as deputy city manager and finance director.
Selden said Cairns had approached him on Monday, Nov. 19, asking for a raise of $18,000. She was being paid $54,000 a year.
Selden told her, "The city's not really in a spot to dole out raises," and reminded her that any salary increases would have to be approved by the City Council. She then said she might be leaving.
The following afternoon, they talked again. Selden said she told him she was probably going to quit, but would stay until the end of January, so the city could hire a replacement.
But on Tuesday evening, she called and told him that the next day, Nov. 21, would be her last on the job.
Since Selden was hired last spring, he said, he had been "satisfied" with Cairns' performance.
"We've lost a good member of the City Hall staff," he said, but added, "We'll survive."
Selden said the position of treasurer has not yet been posted. He said he has contacted the city's auditing firm, Siegfried Crandall PC, about having a staff member from that company serve as an interim treasurer.
He said he does not have any plans to request a forensic audit following Cairns' departure. A forensic audit is usually done if there are suspected irregularities, but in this case, Selden said, "I don't have any reason to believe that one would be needed."
Michael Behm, who has been serving as the city's deputy treasurer, could have taken on Cairns' responsibilities, Selden said. But Behm has also resigned to take another job, and his last day - coincidentally - was also Nov. 21.
"He gave us his two weeks' notice. That one we were planning on," Selden said.

Can't ever get rid of them. Can't ever shake them. And if you thought this was going to be a two-team race atop the American League Central, maybe you'd better think again.
Can't forget about the Twins, not that the Detroit Tigers would, after watching the Twins beat up first Justin Verlander and then Andrew Miller this weekend. It was Miller's turn Saturday, and the rookie left-hander gave up six runs in five innings of an 8-5 Tiger loss.
So take a look at those AL Central standings, as June turns to July. There's Cleveland, there are the Tigers. And there, just four games back of the Tigers, are the Twins.
"They have a real good team," Pudge Rodriguez said Saturday. "A bunch of guys who play hard."
The Tigers do, too, of course, and even with four losses in five games this week, no one's saying the Tigers are falling apart. Not hardly. It's just that the Twins aren't going away.
"I said last year (when the Twins were struggling early) that they would be there at the end," said Tiger manager Jim Leyland, who watched his team lose the division crown to Minnesota on the last day of the season.
And they'll be there at the end again this year?
"Oh, there's no question," Leyland said. "Absolutely."
Leyland had reason not to be happy with his team Saturday, and he kept the clubhouse doors closed a little longer than normal after the game. But he was perfectly calm once reporters were allowed in, and even offered praise for Miller, despite the six runs.
"I was pleased with Andrew," Leyland said. "I know that sounds crazy. But in some ways he pitched more than he had the other times, because he threw some more breaking balls.
"I thought Andrew was fine."
And that's fine, except that Miller had the Tigers in a 6-1 hole after allowing a three-run Michael Cuddyer home run in the fifth. Lew Ford's two-run shot off Jason Grilli made it 8-2 in the sixth, and it hardly mattered that the Tigers hit three late home runs to make the final score a little closer.
The standings look a little closer today, too. The Twins were a sub-.500 team as recently as a couple of weeks back, but now they've won 12 of their last 18 games.
You're tempted to say it's just like last year, except that last year the Twins entered July 11 games behind the then first-place Tigers. And they still caught the Tigers on the final day of the regular season to win the division.
This week, the Twins simply caught the Tigers in a rough stretch at the end of what was still a successful month. The Tigers went 16-10 in June (the third-best record in the league), but they've lost four of five games since coming home from a successful nine-game trip.
"I think we just came home with a little of the blahs," Leyland said. "I think some guys are probably looking at the (All-Star) break."
The Tigers did score a few runs Saturday. Curtis Granderson, Marcus Thames and Pudge Rodriguez all homered, leaving the Tigers with a major-league high 174 runs in 26 games in June.
But runs don't always equal wins, and the last two days Verlander and Miller have allowed 12 runs. It's the first time in four weeks that Tiger starters have lost games on back-to-back days.
It's the second time this year that the Tigers have lost the first two games of a Comerica series against the Twins.
Can't forget about them.

MYTH: Speckled trout stop eating shrimp at the end of summer because their mouths get sore.
This myth is held as indisputable fact by many old-timers who fish the beaches and coastal bays along South Louisiana. The belief is that after an entire summer of getting stuck by shrimp horns, speckled trout turn into Grandpa after he lost his dentures. They want only soft foods.
Fisheries biologist and outdoor writer Jerald Horst can't for the life of him understand how this myth originated.
"So, instead of shrimp, they eat fish with hard spines?" he wondered.
This myth is especially difficult to understand because there's no other time when speckled trout key more on shrimp than the late summer and fall.
"The finest feeding frenzies of the year occur in the fall during white shrimp season when the trout come in from the major bays and intersect with the shrimp," Horst said. "Birds wheel and dive, and trout large and small gorge themselves on white shrimp.
"Fall fishing is taking candy from a baby. A blind moron can catch fish then."
All this action is always centered around shrimp, Horst said.
"It's a fun time of year. It's not stressful, unless you're looking for big fish," he said. "You just go anywhere on a falling tide where the water goes from narrow to wide -- from a narrow spot to a wide spot in a bayou or from a bayou into a small lake, pond, lagoon or whatever.
"Some fish will have eight, nine, 10 antennae sticking out of their mouths."
If the shrimp really hurt the speckled trout, they certainly wouldn't be as inclined to eat them. Besides, anglers would see evidence of the pain.
"A cursory inspection shows their mouths have very little tissue," Horst said. "They're very cartilaginous, and don't have a lot of sensitivity and nerve endings. If they were soar, they'd also be inflamed, red and perhaps swollen."

EAST BAY TOWNSHIP -- The pilot of a small plane that crashed in northern Michigan, apparently killing his wife, lost his daughter in a 2006 Indiana plane crash that killed five Indiana University students.
Authorities say Yatish Joshi, 51, of South Bend, Ind. was in critical condition with burns following the Thursday night crash of the twin-engine Cessna 310. It went down in a densely wooded swamp in East Bay Township.
Officials still haven't positively identified a body found near the wreckage. But Grand Traverse County Sheriff Scott Fewins said Joshi told authorities he was flying with his wife, Louise Addicott.
Joshi's daughter, 24-year-old Georgina Joshi, died when the plane she was piloting crashed in April 2006 in Indiana.
Glenda Lamont, who has been Joshi's accountant for more than 10 years, said the couple had an incredibly strong connection. She said Addicott and Joshi grew closer after Georgina Joshi's death.
"You can imagine how horrifying this is," Lamont told the Traverse City Record-Eagle.
The crash happened while the plane was nearing Cherry Capital Airport in Traverse City. Joshi's plane left South Bend Regional Airport earlier in the day, the Federal Aviation Administration said.
The couple owned a condominium at Crystal Mountain, Lamont said.
The cause of the crash was under investigation.
In the 2006 crash that killed Georgina Joshi, the National Transportation Safety Board said pilot error was the likely cause. The single-engine Cessna wend down about half-mile short of an airport in Bloomington, Ind.
All killed were graduate students in IU's music school and were returning to Bloomington after a concert rehearsal in West Lafayette.

Jennifer Aniston, Lisa Kudrow and Courteney Cox had a special "Friends" reunion on "Jimmy Kimmel Live" Wednesday, playing their famed sitcom characters RAchel, Phoebe and Monica. Kimmel played Ross, pulling out a wig for Aniston that looked like "The Rachel." "I'm not doing that," the 45-year-old actress responded. "I have boundaries, Jimmy." Aniston also called the skit dumb, to which the late-night host replied: "Is it dumber than living in a huge apartment in New York City for eight years, even though you work at a coffee shop?" Speaking of which, a Central Perk pop-up shop is scheduled to open up in New York City next month for the show's 20th anniversary.
Ready to have your mind blown? Hello Kitty is not a cat. Hello Kitty expert (apparently that's a thing) Christine Yano is curating a new exhibit in Los Angeles about the iconic character and says Sanrio, which owns Hello Kitty, informed her that the cute cartoon with a bow on her head is actually a little human girl. "She is not a cat," Yano continued. "She's never depicted on all fours [and has] a pet cat of her own... called Charmmy Kitty." She also insisted the 40-year-old Kitty is a "perpetual third-grader" from London, not Japan, changing everything you thought you knew about the face on all those t-shirts, backpacks, and plush toys.

Did Tony Soprano die at the end of "The Sopranos?" The debate has raged on for seven years since the HBO series finale, and Vox stirred the pot by claiming creator David Chase said "No, he isn't" in a new interview. But how the interviewer posed the question struck fans as odd, and Chase's publicist clarified Wednesday night: "To simply quote David as saying, 'Tony Soprano is not dead,' is inaccurate. There is a much larger context for that statement and as such, it is not true... The final scene of 'The Sopranos' raises a spiritual question that has no right or wrong answer." In other words, don't stop believin' (in whatever you think happened). And ultimately, it doesn't matter, because a new series or movie won't happen without James Gandolfini.

Reviews for Walnut-Cream Cheese Finger Sandwiches
"I spread this on pumpkin spice (a seasonal bread) bread for a board meeting....they were gone in 10 minutes. Wished I had made more...big hit. Als use on cinnamon raisin bread....yummy"
"I make the spread as instructed and leave it in a bowl to be used on bread slices, bagels, etc. Simple, but yummy!"
"I thought this recipe as is tasted flat on flavor. With the addition of a tsp each of salt and pepper, along with 2 tsp of Old Bay Seasoning and a few dashes of hot sauce, I could honestly say it tasted better. I would leave out the lemon juice and nutmeg, as they did nothing to enhance the flavor."
"I made this for a potluck at work and everybody loved them, even received some suggestions for next time to maybe add ham and pickes, so i will try that too but for sure i will make them again."

The event kicks off at 6 p.m. today after a half-hour of pre-Thon introductions at the Bryce Jordan Center on campus. Dancers will be on their feet until the finale at about 4 p.m. Sunday when the amount of money raised will be announced.
Last year, Thon volunteers raised $7.8 million, 82 percent of which came from individual gifts. Thon has raised $69 million since 1973. The money goes to The Four Diamonds Fund, which supports pediatric cancer research and families whose children are being treated for cancer at Penn State Hershey Children's Hospital.
About 240 families are expected at Thon this year, a record number. Saturday features the Make a Wish program, when kids and their parents can spend time with athletic teams, dance groups, cheerleaders, the Blue Band, jugglers and other Penn State teams.
