Daily Value is used on labels to indicate the percent of the recommended daily amount of each nutrient that a serving of a food or vitamin/ mineral supplement provides. The term DV has replaced the use of US RDA (United States recommended daily allowance) for labeling purposes.
Folic acid is essential for the manufacture of DNA, the substances necessary for cell reproduction. It also promotes normal red-blood cell formation. An adequate intake of folic acid is important to reduce the risk of certain birth defects. Good sources of folic acid include: leafy vegetables, some fruits, legumes, liver, yeast breads, wheat germ, and vegetable oils such as soybean, corn, cottonseed, and safflower.
Iodine, best known for keeping the thyroid gland healthy, also helps metabolize fat and aids physical and mental development. Good sources of iodine include: iodized salt and saltwater fish.
As blood passes through the tiny air sacs in the lungs, oxygen attaches itself to the iron in the blood and is carried to all parts of the body. In general, pre-menopausal women need more iron than men do, because menstruation depletes the body of iron. Good sources of iron include: meat, raisins, green leafy vegetables and nuts.
IU is an abbreviation for international units, a standard unit of measurement for fat-soluble vitamins A, D and E
Magnesium is necessary for glucose metabolism, the synthesis of proteins and nucleic acids, muscle contraction, transmission of nerve impulses and the delicate electrical balance of cells. Good sources of magnesium include: legumes, nuts, whole grains and green vegetables.
Manganese helps to metabolize protein and fat. It maintains the health of the immune and nervous systems. It is important for bone growth and reproduction. Manganese makes it possible for the body to use thiamin and vitamin E. Good sources of manganese include: whole-grain products, along with some fruits and vegetables.

Student improv group performs with comedian
For any aspiring comedian, to perform with someone famous is truly exciting. Comedian Mike Birbiglia helped expose some young comedians to the SUNY Fredonia campus community on a big stage.
Birbiglia performed recently at King Concert Hall. Prior to his performance, he found a note in his dressing room. When Birbiglia took the stage, he brought the note out on stage and explained to the audience he had found this note which had two phone numbers listed under C and M.
"I thought cellular and mobile were the same?" Birbiglia joked.
Through audience encouragement, Birbiglia called both phone numbers listed on the note. The first number belonged to Marisa Caruso, who was not in the audience; the second belonged to Cory Loomis – who was. Upon answering the phone, Loomis was brought down on stage with Birbiglia.
"What was the intent of this letter?" asked Birbiglia.
Loomis explained that he is friends with Caruso and it was her idea to slip a note in to the green room. The note offered a drink from Caruso and encouraged Birbiglia to incorporate the note into his show.
"Marisa texted me (saying) 'I know where Mike Birbiglia's dressing room is. I'm going to slip him a note,'" Loomis said.
Birbiglia, after the show, said he never had anything like that happen during a show. Some other audience members did make him signs at the show.
"What happened tonight, will never happen again. People send letters and they're always a little bit crazy but they're not that funny," he said.
Birbiglia continued with his comedy show, until the audience started saying "Marisa is here" shortly into his set. He brought Caruso down to the stage and she explained the note. She interns next door to the green room and saw Birbiglia's name on the door.
"I was typing and thought 'Wouldn't this be cool?'" she said. "I wasn't going to be able to come tonight so I put Cory's name on it."
Caruso is a member of the improv comedy group, the Random Acts! at SUNY Fredonia. Once Birbiglia found more information on the Random Acts!, he offered a chance for the group to come back at the end of the show to help close out the performance. About an hour later, Random Acts! came back and performed improv comedy following a monologue by Birbiglia.
The monologues included a story of Ivan, Birbiglia's cat, and their trip to Massachusetts which Birbiglia and his wife, Jenny referred to as "Catachusetts," and a story of how big horse flies come in to Birbiglia's apartment and his weapon of choice to kill them is a large Orson Welles novel being thrown at the wall. Improv included what it felt like to be Ivan as well as fly gangsters looking for money. Closing out the show, Birbiglia said the SUNY Fredonia show was one of his top 20 shows he's ever performed.
"Tonight was a really wild show," Birbiglia said. "It was one of the more unique shows that I've done. I kind of like it when stuff like that happens. I actually like when I do college shows or kind of one-offs like this where people aren't coming with the expectation that they want to see one show."
The show Birbiglia has been touring recently is "My Girlfriend's Boyfriend" but he also tells stories from "Sleepwalk with Me," a movie released last year based on his own standup. Birbiglia enjoys shows that are not tied to a specific tour where he has freedom to tie in what's around him.
"I find whatever is happening in the room, if there's a loud noise … I would build a show around that," Birbiglia said. "One time I did a show in Detroit … on stage there was a small fire. One of the lights burst … and the audience could see it. So I built a 10-minute set around that. For me, that's way more fun."
The show was opened by comedian Josh Rabinowitz. He said he had a great time at the show and never saw anything like the performance in his career as a comedian.
"The crowd was really fun," he said. "I've done a lot of comedy shows … and I've never seen anything like that, that was so cool. I thought the improv group was so funny. They really listened to (Birbiglia's) stories and used them so well."
"Sleepwalk With Me" is available on Netflix and iTunes. For more information on Birbiglia, visit www.birbigs.com. For more information in Rabinowitz, visit www.joshrabinowitzcomedy.com.

Skip to comments.During drawdown, Pentagon cuts cooked breakfast for some troops in Afghanistan
Posted on 01/29/2013 3:26:06 PM PST by yoe
The Army has stopped serving cooked breakfasts to some of the U.S. soldiers in Afghanistan as part of its drawdown, a move that prompted troops to write home asking their families and friends to send care packages with cereal, breakfast bars and other foods.
The Army told the Washington Guardian the current cutbacks began Jan. 1, and affect about 2,700 soldiers deployed in forward operating bases in more remote areas of Afghanistan.
Officials said the reduction of cooked breakfasts and midnight meals is not related to the U.S. budget crisis, but rather is part of the effort to begin closing down U.S. operations in the affected areas and transition them to Afghan troops. The affected soldiers are being given packaged meals known as MREs (Meals Ready to Eat) as substitutes for a cooked breakfast, the officials said.
(Excerpt) Read more at washingtontimes.com ...
I could not agree more. Really stop feeding the troops? Hubby and I spent seven years at overseas bases during his AF career and I saw many many civilian employees who were incompetent and lazy and who took 2 hour lunches and 5 day weekends. Please tell me why we aren't firing these people so we can feed our deployed troops.
cutting mid-rats? Oh man. I was a night owl.. we were always up for the grub, a nation's army marches on it's stomach,, sadly, O has never served in one and Moochelle would make ya eat celery and arugula.
It is not that unusual to be on deployment in an area where the meal plan is 3 class C meals a day. It is the Army. Complaining about such a standard thing is called whining. This author, John Solomon, might not know that.
He should be writing about the ROEs and not the MREs. Now that is criminal.
A-ration: fresh food prepared on-site (or nearby and transported)
B-ration: a unit-sized packaged/preserved ration, most commonly found in tray rations (nicknamed T-rat) heated by immersion.
Meal, Ready-to-Eat: the standard individual field ration
I pray that these young warriors remember this when they get back home and the S H T F.
We could use some folks with current military trainin.
I will probably be banned from FR for stating this, but I've had it with this POS and his band of asshats. Bring our troops home and let the ragheads kill each other off; at this point who really cares?
I am amazed that his "laser like focus" is on LGBT issues, destroying our constitution, pumping up eco friendly and mostly useless energy solutions and most recently wanting to get involved in legislating pro football. By the way I must have been asleep when the economy and jobs issues were solved. Damn sure haven't heard anything about that . . . at least since last Thursday and that was nothing but good news . . . /s.
I hope that everyone of the worthless POS that either voted for this POS or smugly stayed at home on election day to prove a point are able to look at themselves in the mirror. Quite frankly I seriously doubt that they can.
Cutting out those civilians is a wonderful idea instead of cutting those who are in the military.
"The United States Marine Corps is set to shed more than 20,000 active duty positions in the coming years and have already commenced a process meant to force some senior officers into an early retirement.
The Marines are on course to cut around 4,000 positions a year through 2017, decreasing the total number of Marines to 182,100 from its peak last year of 202,100, according to a major scale-down order that was quietly issued last year."
COME ON! A Troop has to have his hot SOS and eggs in the morning! And what Zero spent today was $1.8 to $2 Million just today on his trip to Vegas for a 15 min. speech to get his ego fix from an adoring crowd!
Thank you for your excellent reply, I couldn't agree more.
As an aside, I was traveling through Kansas City last week and saw a great t-shirt in an airport gift shop . . .
Welcome to Leavenworth
A Gated Community
I didn't miss anything. If they are having 3 C's a day, then that is not unusual.
They are getting 2 hots and an MRE. So, that is pretty good. In fact, it's sounds more like a normal deployment if you ask me.
As I said, whining about MREs is nothing compared to the criminal ROEs that are in place.
So the management folks cut hot breakfasts for soldiers to keep management incomes high. That trend's been going on for about three decades, even in civilian circles. Now, there are very few in America who actually produce things that we need.
Little odd.
Most places I went if we were to have one "C" meal a day it was lunch.
Nothing smells like a Mess Hall - Uh, Dining Facility - Um, sorry DFAC - at breakfast time.
hey, we got illegals to feed, you guys are at the back of the bus with the elderly
Cooked breakfasts???
This assclown author Solomon is whining on behalf of the guys "in the rear with the gear".
He is clueless.
/disgusted headshake
Of course, cooking emits satanic gases that lead to 'climate change'. We can't allow those nasty 'weather extremes' to happen in the lovely Hindu Kush Mts.
Ah, just send the grunts over to the AFB.
When they have a cut down it is 2 eggs instead of 3 - fresh, of course.
When they start having 'powdered eggs to order, powdered milk, powdered bug juice' etc .
I am definitely being (for the most part) facetious and sarcastic, it really is a sad state of affairs when this asshat in the White Hut is spending OUR money on his own personal life, with the hopping on AF1 like it was a VW bug sitting down at the end of the driveway.
It is time to send him to Camp David and let the 'First Brood' live out their dictatorship there.
Yeah, in Ubama's sodomized military you probably risk "hate crime" prosecution for using that phrase.
"cooking emits satanic gases that lead to climate change"
have you ever opened an MRE? Those things emit satanic gasses without cooking. No telling what type of corrosive, polluting byproducts are left over when they make them.
Telling the troops to rough it,when they have to rough it,is part of any military.Having them rough it,when it is cheaper is stupid.It is acting like amateurs actually,European armies do that when their soldiers don't have food or ammo.Tell them the Euro equivalent of suck it up and drive on.
It is cheap and it is stupid.If you can have soldiers fight comfortably and well fed,then you owe it to yourselves to do.Having soldiers rough it their entire military careers because "it is good for them",leads to nowhere except physical problems later on.Physical problems the taxpayer ends up paying for.
Uh, that's per hour. Bammy was in the air for 9 hours. Mr. calculator says that's 1.674 Million dollars.
In my day mid-rats were a thick slice of bologna or "luncheon meat" sandwich and coffee. These old cuts came out of a green tubular can and were called "horse cock."
It wasn't unusual to have 3 MREs a day the first few days of a deployment or if in a remote location. Other times, the MRE depended on the schedule for the day. I agree that mostly it was at lunch, however, if you've got a lot of folks running on reverse cycle, then it might make more sense to have the hot at lunch and supper, since that would be a more likely time for the night shift to be awake. The fact that they have midrats says that they're running shifts.
Just to be honest with you, there's some MREs I'd rather have than some more of the oven moistened French toast and oven moistened scrambled egg breakfasts that I've had.
And, having participated in the "old army" back in the Viet era, I still think there were items in the old C rations that were better than the MREs. A heated tin of the old C rat bread....mmmmmm mmmmmm good.
I only had a few MREs but liked the spaghetti meal myself.
I hear ya. I was on night shift/stay shift for most of my time in the corps. Mid-rats were like lunch to us, breakfast was like dinner. And being overseas quite a bit of the time; going out for mikyD's wasn't an option.
(as my oldest son in the corps, stationed in Kadena is figuring out currently)
That's just un-sat!
Island hopping a few times on AF flights on my way to and from Diego Garcia, some of the best food I ever had in the military was when we landed on some island and went to eat.
You won't see this particular moderator banning you for those sentiments.
See post 31
Yeah, Colonel, starving your troops will certainly reduce operations.
Why anyone would want to join this increasing joke of an organization right now, under such incompetent, careless, and self-serving leadership, is beyond me.
This is a national disgrace! Obama can fly all over continuing his stupid "campaign" and we're not feeding our troops?!
Where are the Repubs? Why don't we hear screaming from the rooftops about this?! Call Obama on this!!!!!!! And don't blame any stupid sequestration or budget cuts.....time to cut the imperial presidency and spend $$ where it needs to go!
Can't disagree about the ROE's, xzins. It is disgusting.
In terms of sheer effect on morale, breakfast well prepared with eggs to order is when available the most important meal of the day. And soldiers love the cooks who are up long before everyone else & who are usually the last to turn in at night to make sure everyone gets fed.
This is in the field cooking out of an MKT (mobile kitchen trailer).
MREs at breakfast time were only there to be issued for the lunch meal, period.
Post of the day. Thanks.
Banned? I have hero worship.
If you can't win a war in ten years, time to come home. Let them all kill each other. They are anyway.
Most of my 6 years in the Marines was with c-rats. I still have a P38 on my dog tag chain. The last year I was in was when we were introduced to MREs. We called them "Meals Rejected by Ethioians" back then. They were new, and not particularly well received in my unit. We wanted our c-rats back. I suppose they've tweaked and improved the MREs in the past 30 years or so.
I saw a story on the news tonight while I was at the gym about a soldier (possibly Marine) who had all four limbs blown off and had received an arm transplant. I literally just about choked up right in the middle of the gym. It's pathetic what we are allowing to happen to our military people.
They had an episode about MRE's on "Bizarre Foods with Andrew Zimmern". That guy wouldn't eat the stuff.
Succinct and elegant.
If we were fighting under leadership determined to win, no front line soldier would be bitching about the food.
But just think. If we go to war with the North Koreans the ROE's may be the MRE's.
"Please tell me why we arent firing these people so we can feed our deployed troops"
Because they are UNION, and it quite litterally takes an act of congress to fire them.
This is so Chicago. It's below freezing in Kabul and they cut back on hot breakfasts to the frontline troops. These arrogant skunks just don't care.
It's how the politicians act in Chicago - remorseless, pitiless, pukes. They target a vulnerable minority because it's part of their philosophical approach to life.
Hell, I thought she was auditioning for the role of "Slimer" in the next Ghostbusters movie.

"Boxes in Terra Rose I," oil and silver leaf on canvas, 2009 (courtesy of the artist)
Kenjilo Nanao, printmaker and painter, passed away on Monday. He was 83.
Born in Aomori, Japan, he came to San Francisco in 1960. He studied printmaking with Nathan Oliveira, married fellow artist Gail Chadell, and together they spent most of their lives in the Bay Area.
I became acquainted with Kenji's work through my friend Kevin Simmers who studied printmaking with Nanao in the 70s. I have been a fan of his work ever since.
While I was in California two weeks ago we stopped by Kenji's studio to see him. Frail and faltering, he spent time with us on the afternoon of April 29. Gail took him to the hospital that night. Two weeks later he was gone.
From the essay by art critic Charles Shere in the catalog for Kenji's recent show at the Triton Museum in Santa Clara, "Pacific Paintings, 1986-2011":
After nearly a lifetime of work these painting have attained a rare mastery. Thankfully, Kenjilo Nanao continues to paint, patiently following his muse, his eye, his hand, the evolving vision.
Their first element: transcendance. They are pacific paintings, serene yet energetic. Too often painters approaching these visions find the merely tranquil. There's nothing soft or merely decorative about this work, though the surfaces are indeed beautiful, often even sumptuous. There's much going on in and under those surfaces—gesture, memory, attentiveness, intelligence—revealing life, vitality, even power behind the beauty. Not behind it: informing it.
And from Preston Metcalf, curator at the Triton:
Seen in this sense we get a hint of Nanao's exploration of the nature of humanity. We are not interruptions in the vast transcendent field beyond the physical, but we are all a part of it and so we are all connected and one.
Kenjilo Nano says he makes art to improve himself by the journey, rather than making art for art's sake. Fortunately for us, by sharing the boon of his explorations, he improves us along the way.
Whether working on his prints or his paintings, Nanao had a master's hand. The magisterial quietude of his work is undeniable. As Shere observed, "There is nothing more beautiful, in all its generous modesty than this mastery."
This is the Irreplaceable: that which cannot be replicated or reproduced. Adieu Kenji. And thank you.

I'm sorry to hear of Kenji's passing, Deborah. When you posted his photo originally, I was so struck by that red painting behind him. It is just gorgeous. Perhaps that's the way we should all go – painting one day, a brief respite and then the end. My sympathy on your loss!
I'm sorry for your loss of what looks like a wonderful painter and human being. It sounds as though he had a very good end to his life. How lucky that you were able to see him.
What beautiful work he made, Deborah. I am glad you could be with him
and Kevin at that time. The energy of his work is so complex and deep. What a rich life.
What a wonderful posting this is! I am grateful to be introduced to his rich, resonating works. I think of the trail of energy that each of us has the potential to leave behind, in love, vitality, and belief.
What an extraordinary artist! How amazing that you were the last three people to talk to him about art.
Such a lovely appreciation, and how lucky you were to be able to spend some time with him in his studio. I love that notion of making art to improve oneself by the journey.
After your first post mentioning him, I looked at his work online. I was so taken. (His use of grays, blues, and reds is marvelous.) How stunning it must be to seeing the paintings in person.
Deb, a beautiful story of a master being honored and served for a final good bye before a final journey.
He must have been a marvelous artist and person. It is a great loss for you, sorry.

Concealed weapons could be coming to bars, restaurants and outdoor sports stadiums near you.
The Republican-dominated Ohio Senate passed a bill 25-7 Wednesday to allow concealed carry permit holders to carry weapons into bars, restaurants, and open-air sports stadiums serving alcohol. However, those packing concealed heat could face felony charges if they are caught boozing it up.
Could make Steelers games very interesting
Wonder what would have happened if this was in existence on Dec 2, 2010?
Even Virgil outlawed guns in Tombstone.

Sexual violence is a problem at colleges and universities across the country, including Marquette. Professionals university wide are working collaboratively to ensure the campus community is aware of how sexual violence impacts our community.
When we talk about what you can do to stop sexual violence, we often use the word prevention. While we would all like to prevent sexual violence, it is helpful to understand the difference between prevention and risk reduction.
People can prevent sexual assault by not sexually assaulting someone else, or by intervening when an acquaintance is potentially going to engage in non-consensual behavior.
Risk reduction is making decisions that will increase the odds of keeping you and your friends safe, like staying in groups when you're going out, drinking responsibly and communicating clearly.
To be clear, if a person drinks too much, or is not among a group of friends, and is assaulted, they are not responsible for the assault. Regardless of what someone is wearing or how much they drank, that person is not asking to be assaulted, not are they the cause of the assault.
Preventing sexual violence is only accomplished by teaching potential perpetrators not to commit the crime. However, it is important to teach potential victims risk reduction strategies to lower the likelihood that they will become targets of the crime.
Marquette's prevention efforts are focused on helping students and staff gain knowledge and awareness about sexual violence:

This ground-breaking display, the first of its kind in a British museum, will feature 16 garments from the collection of Peter Farrer. Born in 1926, Peter has been cross-dressing since he was 14. The display will include highlights from his historic and modern collection of cross-dressing clothes.
Peter's interest in women's period costume has led him to collect extensively and he now has a huge number of garments, particularly evening dresses made between the 1930s and the 1980s.
He is especially interested in dresses made from taffeta, a crisp lightweight fabric that makes a distinctive rustle when the wearer moves. He has had a wardrobe of taffeta dresses made that he can wear at home, created for him by the Brighton-based dressmaker Sandi Hall, owner of the Kentucky Woman Clothing Company.

Always busy, trying to help
By ERIN SULLIVAN
Published February 6, 2007
NEW PORT RICHEY - Everyone wants to know Millie Cerrone's secrets. They look at her with surprise when she tells them her age, as if, at nearly 100, she should be lying in a dark room flipping through a casket catalogue.
"I'm 96," Millie said at her retirement party Monday afternoon at Gulfside Regional Hospice in New Port Richey, where she's volunteered since 1992.
"And I'll be 97 in April," she added quickly, with a smack of pride. Everyone at the party kept talking about how Millie is an inspiration to them - for her grace, dedication, compassion and spunk. The hospice staff loves their Millie so much they're throwing her another goodbye party Wednesday.
"My friends always tell me they want to be like my mom when they grow up," said Millie's daughter, Ann Tiller, who is 69 years old. Millie has lived with Ann and son-in-law Bill in New Port Richey since her husband, Benjamin, died in 1987. In a few weeks, the three of them will be moving to Atlanta to be closer to family. Millie has two other children besides Ann, six grandchildren and 12 great-grandchildren.
Millie is like a little white-haired doll and looks decades younger than her real age. She's shrunk a bit she says so now she's 4-foot-9 inches and weighs about 120 pounds. Her skin is smooth and fair. Her eyes are small and dark and glint with intelligence and humor. She only wears glasses for reading and still has the eyesight to repair tiny, intricate jewelry and to knit, crochet and sew. She has a hearing aid in her right ear, but hears well with it. She walks briskly and unaided.
Overall, Millie's in good health, apart from those three heart attacks she had more than 20 years ago. She takes a Centrum Silver multivitamin every day. She tries to not eat too much fat. She's never smoked.
What about drinking?
"She makes homemade wine in her closet," Ann said.
"It'll knock your head off," said Bill, a retired engineer.
They said one time a bottle exploded. No one was injured.
Millie said her secrets to her longevity are these:
Stay busy.
"I'm too busy to die," she said.
And the other is to not fret.
"She's like Scarlett O'Hara," Bill said. " 'I'll think about that tomorrow.' "
Millie does not let herself get into a funk. When bad things happen - such as when a hospice patient for whom she has developed a fondness dies - Millie is sad, but does not dwell. Somehow, she absorbs hurt but it does not slow her down.
The one time people noticed her sadness was when her husband, Benjamin, died after battling Alzheimer's for four years. Millie refused to let anyone care for him except herself. He died at home.
Afterward, she still forced smiles. But she was exhausted and heartbroken. Men pestered her for dates (she is beautiful) but Millie refused. She never dated another man.
But even during her mourning, Millie was always pleasant. People at the hospice can't remember seeing her when she wasn't smiling and upbeat. If she sits to watch television, she'll also knit or crochet. She really is always busy - volunteering for the hospice or her church or doing things for family or friends. She'd be on her hands and knees scrubbing floors, hauling laundry baskets and climbing ladders to clean if her daughter and son-in-law hadn't forbidden her.
Millie, who was born in New York, is sad to leave her friends in Florida, where she's lived for 50 years. But she's excited about this new chapter in her life. She told Ann she wants to buy a new bedroom suite, since she's had her old one for half a century.
She's planning on finding another hospice in Atlanta, so she can keep on volunteering.
"I just keep going," she said matter-of-factly.
When asked what part of her life made her happiest she said, without hesitation:
"All of it."
Erin Sullivan can be reached at firstname.lastname@example.com or (813) 909-4609.
Fast Facts:
Say goodbye to Millie Cerrone
If you know Millie and want to give her a hug before she leaves, she'll be at the Gulfside Regional Hospice Thrift Shoppe in Hudson from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. Wednesday. The Hospice volunteers are throwing a party for her then, but they said it's okay for Millie's customers and friends to stop by, too. The address is 12154 U.S. 19 in Bayonet Point. The phone number is (727) 861-4900.

Final Call for Papers:
We invite submissions to this year's workshop on topics in formal semantics and pragmatics, and related fields, including but in no way limited to the following:
- Dynamic syntax/semantics/pragmatics of natural language
- Categorical/topological/coalgebraic approaches for natural language syntax/semantics/pragmatics
- Logic and its relation to natural language and linguistic reasoning (especially dynamic logics)
- Type-theoretic approaches to natural language
- Formal philosophy of language
- Formal pragmatics (especially game- and utility-theoretic approaches)
- Substructural expansion of Lambek Lambda Calculi
- Many-valued/fuzzy and other non-classical logics and natural language
This year we especially welcome submissions connected to the theme of 'Where is dynamic semantics now?' Flavours of dynamic semantics (world updating, assignment changing, etc.) have been broadly applied to solve problems in linguistics (notably anything related to anaphora) and philosophy (e.g., foundational issues of context, the role of variables) and have prompted the development of a diverse range of frameworks with replicable formal results. However in recent years direct appeals to the dynamic metaphor have been waning, as has the explicit development of novel systems, or even refinements to or mergings of older systems. Has dynamic semantics been so successful in solving its problems that all that remains for discussion are implementational differences among established parameters, or have debates simply shifted to new issues? Either way now seems an apt time to take stock and question where the decades of research have taken us and where we might hope this legacy to send us in the future.
Abstracts (4-6 pages, including figures, bibliography, possible appendices) must be submitted electronically in PDF format at:
When his/her abstract is accepted, the author is expected to submit a full paper (10-14 pages) before the workshop. The proceedings of the workshop will be available at the conference site for registered persons.
Selected Papers:
We also plan to publish a selection of the accepted/invited papers as a portion of a volume 'JSAI-isAI2011 selected papers', which will be published from 'Lecture Notes in Artificial Intelligence' series (Springer Verlag).
Important Dates:
Abstract submission deadline (extended): September 15, 2011
Notification of acceptance: October 10, 2011
Deadline for camera-ready copy: October 28, 2011
Deadline for onsite registration: November 12, 2011

quote ChekkaaIt's been several months since I've attempted using the jacks; my last headset was a USB headset.Were they always nonfunctional, or did this happen just recently? It may have been caused by a recent Windows update or something, in which case, you might look to System Restore? I don't have much experience with it, so I'm not sure whether it would help, but it's worth a shot, I'd say.
quoteTried that, no updates available.You could try installing some new updates through Windows Update.
quoteNada. Already checked.There might be a program blocking the use/detection of your audio jacks. Try disabling some services (using msconfig.exe) and closing some programs and trying again.
quoteSound doesn't work in safe mode.I'm not sure if sound usually works or not in safe mode, but it's also something to try.
quoteThe device is enabled, but is permanently in a state of "Not plugged in."It's also possible that the device is disabled and there are multiple "headphones jacks", as detected by Windows. Assuming Windows 8 has it, right click the sound icon in the taskbar in desktop mode, and choose "Recording devices" (where I assume you checked in the first place). However, did you try right clicking inside the device list and choosing "Show Disabled Devices"? If another headphone jack shows up, try enabling it and seeing if it works.
quoteI don't have an option in the BIOS to enable or disable the jack.And a shot in the dark here, but perhaps the jack is "disabled" in the BIOS, and is only respected by Windows? I've seen OS-specific BIOS settings before, so you might want to check that.
quoteThis is something I've been considering for my Windows partition for a while. I'd gotten Win8 for free from my work, so I upgraded since I didn't have much to lose. I'm only on Windows for gaming anyway; most of my stuff is done on my Slackware partition. The only thing that concerns me is this has been a problem in Windows 7 for many people too.Failing all that, you could always go back to Windows 7. Windows 8 is widely considered to be a flop, anyway.

FOLLOW UP: AMD Confident In Ability to Produce x86 Microprocessors Despite Intel's Doubts.
Intel Corp. said on Tuesday that it had serious questions regarding AMD's intention to spin off its fabs into a separate contract semiconductor manufacturing startup that is presently referred to as "The Foundry Company". Advanced Micro Devices and Intel have cross-license agreement that regulates many aspects of technology licensing and manufacturing.
"Intel has serious questions about this transaction as it relates to the license and will vigorously protect Intel's intellectual property rights," said Chuck Mulloy, an Intel spokesperson, in an interview with Reuters news-agency.
AMD on Tuesday announced intention to spin off its manufacturing facilities into a separate company presently called the "Foundry Company". Under the terms of the agreement with Advanced Technology Investment Company (ATIC) based in Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates, AMD will own 44.4% and ATIC will own 55.6% of The Foundry Company's fully-converted common stock upon its formation.
The wide cross-licensing agreement between AMD and Intel, which is also believed to cover x86 instruction set, does not allow AMD to transfer any of Intel's technologies to any third-party. As a result, if AMD itself is acquired, the new company will not have rights to produce x86 central processing units (CPUs) or utilize any technologies from Intel. While AMD can outsource part of its production, contract manufacturers can only legally produce 20% of AMD's total output, according to some claims.
AMD did not comment on the news-story.

USDA: Oregon's Hunger Rate High, But Starting To Budge
According to a report released today by the USDA, a number of Oregonians still experience "food insecurity," but the rate of those in that position is starting to inch downward.
Food security is defined as "having the ability to obtain enough food to maintain an active, healthy life for all household members." About 13.6 percent of Oregonians- about 491,000- were food "insecure" between 2009 and 2011, down a tenth of a percent from the 2008 to 2010 reporting period. The determination of one's food security is measured by an 18-question survey.
Patti Whitney-Wise is Executive Director of Partners for a Hunger-Free Oregon, and she credits private and public hunger fighting efforts to help stem the tide. Oregon Food Bank delivered mroe than 80 million pounds of food to Oregon and Clark County, Washington residents.
Of concern to food assistance agencies is the possibility of cuts to the SNAP (food stamp) program.

Know what you�re drilling into
Club member Richard Pearson of Phoenix, Arizona, enjoys working with both wood and metal. But when he switched from working with metal to milling wood, he had to waste valuable time removing the cross vise and cleaning the oil and metal shavings from his drill press. To make switching between materials easy, he built a simple table that quickly clamps into the cross vise. Now he can leave the vise in place on his drill press when he works with wood, and the table keeps him from accidentally drilling into the metal vise surfaces. In addition, the vise allows Richard to make fine adjustments to the table�s position while working. Brought to you by: American Profile - Inspirational Stories & American History

Commission to reconsider Minot Walmart project
The Minot Planning Commission will reconsider a proposed Walmart store on 21st Avenue Northwest when it meets Tuesday.
Walmart is proposing a subdivision, annexation and rezoning from agricultural to planned commercial for development of a supercenter east of the U.S. Highway 83 Bypass. The plan differs from an earlier proposal that had located the store closer to the bypass. The planning commission previously reviewed the currently proposed location in March but felt there were too many unresolved issues to approve it without more investigation.
Now Walmart is returning with a plan that it hopes will satisfy city planners. "We appreciate the community's feedback regarding the proposed new Walmart in Minot. We've made several improvements to the plan based on the community's priorities and we look forward to the Planning Commission's review," said Delia Garcia, director of communications for Walmart, Phoenix.
The store has generated neighborhood concerns, particularly related to traffic. The store's main access would be off 21st Avenue, but there also would be access off an extended Sunset Boulevard that would run along the east side of the property. Also, 19th Avenue Northwest would run along the south, or back side of the property, enabling motorists to access Sunset Boulevard from that avenue.
The site plan includes a berm and trees to serve as a buffer against traffic, light and noise for the neighborhoods to the south.
At the March meeting, neighbors raised concerns about people camping in the Walmart parking lot, aesthetics and traffic. Residents living near the proposed store continue to have concerns.
"The great concern from what I have been hearing is they are afraid the traffic will come up 27th (Street) and they are also concerned about Walmart allowing vehicles to stay there overnight. They are concerned about what it might bring to their neighborhood," said Amy Moen, Ward 4 council member representing the area.
City staff are recommending traffic signals at 21st Avenue and the bypass and at the Walmart entrance off 21st Avenue. The city also has been seeking land dedication for a future interchange at the bypass and 21st Avenue from the landowner of the property.
The planning commission meeting begins at 6:30 p.m. in City Hall. Commissioners will be available at 5:30 p.m. to discuss a draft zoning ordinance with the public. Discussion will continue at a public hearing on the proposed new zoning code as the last item on the council's meeting agenda.

BrikThulhu's head has nine tentacles and three eyes, so it's not really an octopus - it's more properly referred to as a Novapus or a Ragnoroktopus. (Or, a really fucked up demon squid as many people in the BrikVerse know him to be).
BrikThulhu is the immortal King of Mayhem. And it is he who makes nightmares, who sends forth his mutant spawn to sow destruction among creatures with the sentience to appreciate it. Little more than superstitions are known of him, as all who have ever seen him tear out their own eyes or are turned instantly to stone. It is suspected that he originates from before creation, as the Oktopustika bears his power and fashion sense. It is possible that he is related to Medusa, but that is a mere speculation.
BrikThulhu is the embodied avatar of the most malevolent forces of entropy and chaos. When you spend a year and a half building a brik model of Yggdrasil, and it mysteriously falls to the ground the night before the photo shoot, smashing into a million pieces, the sound you hear is BrikThulhu laughing. You'll recognize it because it sounds a lot like your own crying.
BrikThulhu is also worshipped by the Blood Daemons.

American robins may mob small predators, such as Cyanocitta cristata and Squamata. They also produce chirping and chucking sounds as warning calls.
Predators on young and adults differ somewhat. Eggs and young are often eaten by different types of Sciuridae, Squamata, and birds such as Cyanocitta cristata, Quiscalus quiscula, Corvus brachyrhynchos, and Corvus corax. Adult American robins are preyed upon by Accipitridae, Felis silvestris, and larger Squamata.
American robins are vigilant when feeding, they may feed in loose flocks, so that they can also watch other robins for reactions to predators. (Sallabanks and James, 1999)

Source: http://www.torontosun.com/2012/01/12/health-canada-looks-at-regulating-traditional-chinese-medicineCanada has an advisory committee working with Chinese medicine practitioners to improve regulations for the importing and sale of Traditional Chinese Medicine.
"Our government has benefited from ongoing discussions with the traditional Chinese medicine community. Since a growing number of Canadians are using traditional Chinese and other natural health products, Im looking forward to learning more about how we can help ensure Canadians have access to a wide range of safe and effective options, said Minister of Health Leona Aglukkaq.
There are currently more than 1,400 traditional Chinese medicines authorized for sale in Canada.
"I am confident that this new committee will provide a valuable link to traditional practitioners, manufactures and retailers, helping us stay abreast of this exciting and interesting field, said Parliamentary Secretary Colin Carrie.
The mandate of the new committee is to give Health Canadas Natural Health Products Directorates advice on emerging issues such as import and sale of Chinese medicines.
The use of Chinese herbs and remedies is thousand of years old, said Edwin Wung, who sells Chinese herbs at the Pacific Mall.
"In Canada, many like alternative medicines. We will work to move forward to improving products in Canada and ensure proper facilitation of the imports and sales, Wung said.

Family life would be happier if U.S. parents let their teen-agers have sex with their lovers at home, argues Amy Schalet, a U-Mass sociology professor, in the New York Times. For her book, Not Under My Roof, Schalet interviewed 130 white, middle-class, not-very-religious American and Dutch parents.
While American parents think they should "steer teenage children away from relationships that will do more harm than good," Dutch parents regard teenagers "as capable of falling in love, and of reasonably assessing their own readiness for sex."
Dutch parents are more likely to talk to their children "about sex and its unintended consequences and urge them to use contraceptives and practice safe sex," Schalet asserts.
Normalizing teenage sex under the family roof opens the way for more responsible sex education. In a national survey, 7 of 10 Dutch girls reported that by the time they were 16, their parents had talked to them about pregnancy and contraception. It seems these conversations helped teenagers prepare, responsibly, for active sex lives: 6 of 10 Dutch girls said they were on the pill when they first had intercourse. Widespread use of oral contraceptives contributes to low teenage pregnancy rates — more than 4 times lower in the Netherlands than in the United States.
However, "sleepovers aren't a direct route to family happiness." Good to know.
The op-ed doesn't compare sex education, contraceptive use or pregnancy rates for white middle-class Americans and Dutch teens. It's possible to discuss the risks of sex without providing a bedroom, writes Stephen Kruiser on PJ Media.
A no-sex-under-my-roof policy is a great way to get adult children to move out of the house, suggests Instapundit.
Raise your hand if it feels weird to have sex in your parent's house with your spouse. Yes, I thought so.

Published February 14, 2007
The day after an off-duty sheriff's deputy shot a man accused of armed robbery in the parking lot, officials assured shoppers that Seminole Mall is safe.
"We don't like to see things of that nature to occur, but it's not a direct reflection on the mall," Seminole Mayor Jimmy Johnson said Tuesday. "As far as the overall picture, the mall is extremely safe."
Pinellas County sheriff's spokesman Jim Bordner agreed with Johnson's assessment.
As more details about Monday's incident have been discovered, it has became increasingly clear that the mall served only as a convenient meeting place, Bordner said.
The incident, he said, apparently stemmed from a debt that Charles S. Tarr, 18, owed to Derek Erskin, 22, both Seminole residents. Erskin and two teenage girls used the mall as a meeting place to attempt to collect the money from Tarr, he said.
Deputy Scott Reid shot Erskin twice, interrupting what he initially thought was an attempted carjacking, Bordner said. Erskin is now accused of robbing Tarr at gunpoint, taking a gold chain and $100 in cash.
Monday's shooting was the second violent incident at Seminole Mall in February. Earlier this month, a 68-year-old Seminole woman was dragged about 20 feet by a purse snatcher when her arm became tangled in the strap. The woman sustained slight injuries.
Pinellas sheriff's records show there have been 114 incidents at the mall since Feb. 1, 2006. About half of them, or 55, were for shoplifting.
However, also among the calls were four reports of assault, three about indecent exposure, two stolen cars and one carjacking.
Recent statistics show the city of about 18,500 is relatively safe from violent crime:
-Batteries accounted for the highest number of violent and sex crimes in January, with 15 reported incidents. That's four more than reported in December 2006.
-Spousal battery was the next most reported, with six calls in January, four more than in December.
-Other violent incidents reported in January were two aggravated assaults, two aggravated batteries and one sexual battery.

ARM, a leading developer of microprocessor technologies for ultra low-power mobile devices, believes that Microsoft Windows 8 [with ARM support] will have better chances in competing against Apple on the market of media tablets than Google Android. ARM believes that familiarity with Windows will give the OS a boost on tablets.
"Consumers are very familiar with Microsoft and very familiar with Windows and they are less familiar with an Android environment. So I think Microsoft have an awareness advantage with consumers that the Android folks didn't have. Now it is up to Microsoft exactly how well they are going to exploit that advantage, but I think that's a fundamental difference," said Warren East, chief executive officer of ARM, during the latest conference call with financial analysts.
While Microsoft Windows 8 will have advantage over other operating systems among conservative users, it should be noted that Windows 8 for ARM will not run ordinary applications designed for x86 microprocessors, but will be compatible with either specially ported programs or apps developed for Windows Metro user interface, a rather controversial UI.
ARM itself generally pins a lot of hopes onto Windows for ARM (WARM, WoA) since it unlocks a number of markets for chips made using its architecture, including notebooks and even ultra low-power desktop personal computers.
Microsoft Windows 8 is projected to be launched sometimes in August, 2012. Usually, devices powered by the new Windows emerge on the day of its general availability.

Base Phase
This is your time to build endurance and to prepare your body for the stresses you'll encounter as your training gets more race specific. There is no wrong way to approach your base training, but it should include easy runs, long runs, neuromuscular strides, short hill repeats and steady-state runs. Strides or short hill intervals can be done in the middle of or after one or two of your weekly easy runs. They help you get fast and efficient without stressing the body. A steady-state workout performed once a week provides a good change of pace from the easy running that otherwise governs the base phase. Sixty to 70 percent of your year's total training should fall into this category. However, if you're taking the year off from racing or simply enjoy this type of training, there is no harm in making this phase fill your year's calendar.
Pre-Race Specific Phase
It's an awful shock to the system to jump right into tough training. The pre-race specific phase cushions this blow by slowly introducing the body to the concept of hard running. The phase can last four to six weeks and includes all those workouts found in the base phase as well as longer hill repeats and climbs, faster and longer fartlek sessions and progression runs.
Race Specific
This is the core of your program where your goals, weaknesses, strengths and race demands determined above come heavily into play. This phase can last three to 10 weeks and will involve an assortment of the endurance, stamina and speed-based workouts discussed in this article. This type of training will constitute 30 to 40 percent of your plan's volume.
The final two to three weeks before your goal event should be used to rest your body. Keep the routine and intensity but drop the volume.

Darkfall and Schadenfreude
I've decided to write another article about Darkfall today because the blogging community is buzzing with articles about it and most are pretty negative about it's lastability and long term appeal. I started to wonder – are people just suffering from a bad case of schadenfreude?
Schadenfreude is a German term which means to take pleasure in other people's misery and I think a lot of people would actually enjoy seeing Darkfall flop. Am I one of those people? My previous article about Darkfall wasn't exactly a glowing hype-fest, so I wasn't sure where I stood on the subject. Time to retreat to my Meditation Chamber and do some serious thinking!
- Hours pass -
Ok, I'm back. And yes, I've done some serious thinking… and you know what, I think I am actually having a mild case of schadenfreude towards Darkfall. Sorry Aventurine! I feel kinda bad about this because to Aventurine's (Darkfall's developers) credit, they haven't actually hyped or marketed the game a lot or trolled forums and blogs trying to promote it. They seem pretty happy just going at their own pace and getting whatever players they can. Kudos to them for being the calm centre in this emotional storm. The two big problems I do have with Darkfall are that I just absolutely loathe the type of MMO that it's trying to resurrect and I can't stand all of the hype some people are heaping onto it.
Darkfall is essentially trying to recreate the original style of MMO like UO and EQ from 1999. It's a nostalgia fest and blast from the past all packed into one. And it sounds God awful. It frustrates me because I hate MMOs that reward time over skill and that's exactly what Darkfall is doing. It's also going by the mantra that 'hardcore' is 'unaccessible'. When EQ first came out, it didn't have a map system, a quest journal, a convenient travel system, a friendly death mechanic or any of the things that todays more accessible MMOs have… and you only need to look at the evolution of EQ to understand that these things were not done on intention but were simply there as the developers didn't know any better. Darkfall is a game that encourages activities like grinding and, to me, it simply demonstrates that they are trying to 'pull another Vanguard' – recreating nostalgia by making the game less friendly to play, without consideration for playability.
The other thing that bugs me about Darkfall is the hype that surrounds it, something beneficial to Aventurine but completely uncontrolled by them. I really hate seeing comments aboutow hgreat a game is going to be before anyone has actually had a chance to play it. It also bugs me when people start applying abstract terms to a game to somehow prove that it's introducing amazing new game mechanics to the genre. We saw this with the whole 'Third Generation' maxim of Vanguard and now we're seeing it with the term 'sandbox' for Darkfall. I highly doubt Darkfall is going to be any less linear than any other MMO out there – removing character levels and making people grind skill points a non-linear game does not create.
So there you have it, my feelings towards Darkfall. They aren't very noble feelings but I guess that's what makes me human and, if anything, if you didn't like the article at least you can now use the word 'schadenfreude' during a conversation with your friends over dinner and sound like you know shit.

Rio Tinto Axes CEO Upon $14B Write-Down: Hot Trends
NEW YORK ( TheStreet) -- Popular searches on the Internet include Rio Tinto (RIO) after the mining company axed CEO Tom Albanese after revealing a $14 billion write-down.
The charge pertains to the company's acquisitions of the Alcan aluminum group and Mozambican coal. While most of the charge pertains to the falling value of the company's aluminum assets, Rio Tinto took a $3 billion charge related to the Mozambique acquisition it made in 2011, something Rio Tinto Chairman Jan du Plessis called in statement "unacceptable."
Albanese will be replaced immediately by Sam Walsh, head of the company's main iron ore business. Doug Ritchie, who led the Mozambique acquisition, will also step down.
Rio said it expects further write-downs of about $500 million. It plans to release more details along with its annual earnings report next month.
BlackRock(BLK) is trending as the money manager reported fourth-quarter earnings that rose 24% from the year before.
BlackRock reported net income of $690 million, or $3.93 a share, from $555 million, or $3.05 a share a year earlier, beating estimates. The company attributed the increases to a boost by its exchange-traded funds.
A move by CEO Laurence Fink to create a series of lower-fee ETFs in October helped spark an increase in deposits by 42% to $35.7 billion in the fourth quarter. The company's assets also rose by 3.2% to $3.79 trillion. Performance fees, awarded for funds that beat certain benchmarks, also contributed to higher earnings in the quarter.
Shares of BlackRock have gained nearly 20% since mid-November.
Boeing(BA) is another popular search. European air-safety officials have decided to join those who are grounding the new Boeing 787 Dreamliner jets after a series of problems.
The European Aviation Safety Agency (EASA) announced it was adopting the directive ordered by the Federal Aviation Administration on Wednesday ordering all 787s to be taken out of service. The decision by EASA only affects two 787s used by Polish airline LOT, but it joins the U.S and Japan's transport ministry, which said this week that All Nippon Airways would not be flying all 17 of its Dreamliner jets and Japan Airlines would not be using all seven of its planes as well.
The FAA said in its directive that Boeing now had to "address a potential battery fire risk in the 787." Concerns about the safety of the 787 have only grew since a fire sparked on a plane parked at Boston's airport and an All Nippon Airways flight had to make an emergency landing after a cockpit message indicated the jet had battery problems and a burning smell arose.
Boeing has promised to work with the FAA to resolve these issues.
The chatter on Main Street (a.k.a. Google, Yahoo! and other search sites) is always of interest to investors on Wall Street. Thus, each day, TheStreet compiles the stories that are trending on the Web, and highlights the news that could make stocks move.

Hi! I have been trying various supposedly "hand tossable" recipes for a good while now and I haven't found one that tastes just as awesome as it tosses...Would anyone be so kind as to consider sharing some of your favorite recipes with me? Thank you!!
From my experience good tossing recipes don't equate to good tasting recipes. Those who compete in the world pizza tossing contests actually use different recipes for tossing then they do at their pizza establishments just because the best tossing dough will be a bit different then the best for baking.

Born in Minsk, Rabbi Lifschitz was a foremost student of Rabbi Shimon Shkop zt"l in Grodna. After leaving Grodna, he continued his learning in Yeshivat Mir, where he became well known as an outstanding scholar. In 1933, he married Tzipporah Chava, the daughter of Rabbi Yosef Yoselowitz, rabbi of Suwalk. Two years after his marriage, Rabbi Yoselowitz passed away and Rabbi Lifschitz succeeded him as rabbi of that city, then one of the most important centers of Jewish life.
He remained there until the Nazis captured Suwalk in 1940. In 1941, he reached America along with his wife and daughter, and was appointed a rosh yeshiva of Beit Midrash LeTorah in Chicago. Rabbi Lifschitz developed a strong connection with his fellow rabbanim, his students and the rest of the Chicago community. His reputation as an outstanding rosh yeshiva spread throughout America and he received offers for several positions. He accepted the invitation of Rabbi Samuel Belkin zt"l and, in 1944, was appointed a rosh yeshiva at the Rabbi Isaac ElchananTheological Seminary.
There he taught Torah for almost 50 years to thousands of students, many of whom came to be known as "Reb Dovid's students." His efforts on behalf of the community were numerous. He served as a member of the presidium of the Agudath HaRabbonim of America and Canada for many years. During the final 17 years of his life, he served as president of Ezras Torah.
His discourses in chochma and mussar were compiled and published by his students and given the title Tehillah LeDovid. His shiurim on the Talmud were also published as Shiurei Rav Dovid Lifschitz.

Sinking city losing its way
A thriving business makes money. A not-so thriving government keeps taking money. In addition, the not-so thriving municipality makes it tough on business while doing no business of its own.
If you guessed this entity is the city of Dunkirk, you are correct.
Last week, council members tabled a resolution regarding the Chadwick Bay Marina. Those who were against tabling the resolution, we must note, are council members who have jobs in the private sector. Those voting on the tabling, however, are not in the private sector and appear to be part of the "big brother" generation.
What brought on the resolution is a change in the ownership, as the former marina partnership has separated. In what normally is something that happens behind the scenes and hardly ever makes print, it became public because it is, unfortunately, tied to the city of Dunkirk.
Yes, the city that is currently fumbling and bumbling when it comes to any sort of development plan or vision for the future.
Anyone who has seen the marina – or has a boat there – knows the improvements that have taken place over the last two summers. At a recent Erie and Chautauqua county event promoting fishing, boat captains and local officials took time to praise those changes.
Leave it to the city leaders to give the facility and its owners a bad knock by not approving a simple resolution and making it out to be a bigger deal than it is.
But that is how government continues to run in Dunkirk. Leaders, even in the 21st century, do not trust any type of non-city government investment. That attitude is why the city is paying on a loan for a piece of property assessed at $250,000 that was bought for $762,000. It is why the city makes developers go through hoops – Brooks Memorial Hospital's new parking lot – to get things done.
Council has scheduled a meeting on Monday to again discuss – and probably approve – the marina resolution that has needlessly gone overboard in discussion.
In the process, the city again looks clueless when it comes to working with the private sector and the marina ownership, one that has invested hundreds of thousands of non-taxpayer dollars into a project.
Isn't that something the Dunkirk's three council tablers should be applauding and assisting instead of stonewalling?

Allouez firefighters take CC tournament
HANCOCK – Copper Country firefighters hauled buckets, changed hoses and raced with ladders to claim the top prize Saturday in the Copper Country Firefighters Tournament.
Allouez Township claimed the top spot in the tournament, hosted this year by Hancock.
Sixteen teams competed in four events: ladder race, hose roll, interchange and the "mystery event" – Bucket Brigade, which harkened back to the Hancock Fire Department's 1860s roots.
Although they were keeping score, the atmosphere at the event was nothing but amiable, with other teams milling around and good-naturedly teasing the competitors.
"It's a great time," said Laari Wirtanen of the Hubbell Fire Department. "Everybody getting together. It's fun to see the brothers."
The interchange event, in which teams had to knock down orange cones amidst replacing a section of hose, was one of the wetter ones, with several errant hoses splashing people watching from the sides of the street.
The only ones getting soaked in the bucket brigade were the firefighters. Team members filled buckets from a tank, tossing their water down the line to the buckets of other team members. The final person deposited whatever made it down the line into a pail.
"This is going to be a fun one," Wirtanen said upon hearing the description.
Jay Hebert started coming to the tournament nine years ago with the Pelkie Fire Department.
Now in his second year at Baraga, he was competing Saturday for the first time. After four events, he'd enjoyed them all.
"It's a brotherhood, and it's fun to compete against them," he said.
The night concluded with a parade down Quincy Street, in which departments marched and also tried to outdo each other for the most creative floats.
Below, the award winners at the tournament (listed in order of finish):
Overall tournament: Allouez Township, Calumet Township, Stanton Township.
Fire Departments of the Year: Hancock, Houghton, Hurontown and Calumet Township.

i watched the webcasts and found it more boring than 7 man to watch, games went full time, and teams seemed to shoot a ton more paint.
our local field is deciding if it should expand to new regulation or leave it at 150ft. i honestly think they should leave it the way it was.

The 1990-P Washington Quarter is really common and can still be found in circulation in circulated grades up to about MS64 condition. In MS65 condition it is a little tougher to find but probably still possible to find some in circulation. In MS66 condition it becomes scarce but it can be purchased inexepensively. In MS67 condition it is really scarce with with less than a dozen known and none being finer.
