Unlike sandhill cranes that nest in small numbers in northern Indiana and are encountered in flocks of several hundred during fall and spring migration throughout the state, endangered whooping cranes are seen mainly as single birds or in groups of 2-6 individuals. These large white birds with black wing-tips are often associated with sandhill cranes in fields or wetland areas.
Whooping cranes observed in Indiana are the result of a restoration effort by the Whooping Crane Eastern Partnership, an international coalition of governmental agencies and private organizations to establish a migratory population of whooping cranes in the eastern United States. Since 2001, captive-bred whooping cranes have been taught to follow ultralight aircraft in order to teach them a migration route from central Wisconsin to the Gulf Coast of Florida. Until 2008, this route took them through Indiana, and free-flying birds regularly stop in Indiana during the fall and spring seasons. Other birds have been released in the company of older cranes from whom the young birds are expected to learn the migration route. Once led south, the cranes are able to migrate on their own, without assistance, in following years.
In the spring and fall, project staff from the International Crane Foundation and the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service track and monitor the released cranes in an effort to learn as much as possible about their unassisted journeys and the habitat choices they make both along the way and on their summering and wintering grounds. All birds have unique combinations of colored bands as well as a radio transmitter. Not all transmitters are functional, however, so public sightings of whooping cranes are of great help in tracking these birds. If someone observes a whooping crane in Indiana, report them at: http://www.fws.gov/midwest/whoopingcrane/sightings/sightingform.cfm
Anyone who encounters a whooping crane in the wild should give them the respect and distance they need. Do not approach birds on foot within 200 yards; try to remain in your vehicle; do not approach in a vehicle within 100 yards. Also, please remain concealed and do not speak loudly enough that the birds can hear you. Finally, do not trespass on private property in an attempt to view whooping cranes.
Whooping cranes were on the verge of extinction in the 1940s. In 2008, there were only about 525 birds in existence, 375 of them in the wild. Aside from the 68 birds reintroduced by WCEP, the only other migrating population of whooping cranes nests at the Wood Buffalo National Park in the Northwest Territories of Canada and winters at the Aransas National Wildlife Refuge on the Texas Gulf Coast. A non-migrating flock of approximately 35 birds lives year-round in the central Florida Kissimmee region.
Whooping cranes, named for their loud and penetrating unison calls, live and breed in wetland areas, where they feed on crabs, clams, frogs and aquatic plants. They are distinctive animals, standing five feet tall, with white bodies, black wing tips and red crowns on their heads.

Rebel Mohawk
Wow! What an amazing and creative Mohawk! When it comes to pushing the boundaries of hairstyles and getting creative this beautiful model definitely knows how to do just that with this amazing long hairstyle turned into a gorgeous and rebellious fauxhawk. Who said you have to shave the sides it looks just as good with long hair, yes obviously a little more work but well worth the effort. Leaving the hair down at back into a cool rat tail just ads just an cool twist to this hairstyle and really works well.

I've said this before, and I'll keep saying it: Pentecostalism is one of the great under-reported and misunderstood "religion stories" of our time. This faith with a strong egalitarian, populist instinct has always empowered people on the margins of society, culture, and religion itself.
And so it is not remarkable yet this memory surprises nevertheless that one of the most influential women in American religious history was Pentecostal. Aimee Semple McPherson was a famous preacher and worship leader decades before the most liberal denominations in the U.S. ordained women as ministers. She was the first woman to obtain a license from the FCC to run a radio station. She helped to feed 1.5 million people in Los Angeles during the Great Depression of the 1930s. Among other things her commissary, it is said, "kept the Mexican community alive" the lowest rung on that city's Depression-era socio-economic hierarchy.
Sister Aimee, as she was known then, also generated controversy to rival her accomplishments. She was not just a powerful woman when women were not generally powerful; she was sexual when women were not supposed to be sexual or, rather, only women of a certain kind. She had a famously tumultuous personal life, was accused of staging her own kidnapping in 1926, and created an extravagant worship style replete with lavish costumes, moving sets, and live animals. We heard from one listener who remembered his mother's account of a Sunday service where Sister Aimee came down the aisle of Angelus Temple the 5000-seat church she built in Los Angeles atop a white horse.
I confess that it is probably easier for me to admire Aimee Semple McPherson from a distance of several decades. The journalist Dorothy Parker called her "Our Lady of the Loudspeaker." For those who were not captivated by her, her love of the limelight seemed to defy the very spirit she preached. I might have had the same reaction. Her preaching voice, heard in this program by way of archival recordings, is by turns moving, alarming, and histrionic. Some recent scholars and documentarians have called her a precursor to modern televangelists like Jim Bakker and Jimmy Swaggart, or a harbinger of the brand of highly politicized Christianity that has garnered so much attention in our time.
As we finish this program, I can't say those analyses are wrong, but they are certainly incomplete. Unlike many televangelists, she amassed no great fortune and fed many hungry people without strings attached. Unlike the politically mobilized Christianity of our time, her life and message always returned to the simplest themes of Christian faith, presented most effectively to people without clout. In the U.S., Pentecostal women have become less prominent in ministry as Pentecostalism has entered mainstream culture. But "Sister Aimee" is a source of hope for women now embracing charismatic faith in Asia, Africa, and Latin America. Some say that what was viewed as scandalous in her time her volatile family life, her failed marriages, her evident humanity makes her more inspiring, not less so, in ours.
In not wanting to reduce Aimee Semple McPherson to analogy or analysis, I find myself in company with one of her more unlikely recent chroniclers the novelist John Updike, who reviewed a spate of new biographies about "Famous Aimee" for The New Yorker earlier this year. Here is how he ends that essay:
"The reality of her, gone from the scene for most of a century, emerges affectingly not in sociological boasts but in anecdotes that take her as she came. In 1927, a month after the charges against her were dismissed in Los Angeles, she arrived in New York in furs and a yellow suit, and was taken to a prime watering spot of the Roaring Twenties, Texas Guinan's speakeasy, on Fifty-fourth Street. A reporter called out, with whatever sardonic intent, that she should be invited to speak. Guinan agreed, and, as Epstein tells it, 'Aimee, demure, dignified, stone sober left her table and stood in the center of the dance floor, smiling until everyone was quiet.' Then she said:
Behind all these beautiful clothes, behind these good times, in the midst of your lovely buildings and shops and pleasures, there is another life. There is something on the other side. 'What shall it profit a man if he gain the whole world, and lose his own soul?' With all your getting and playing and good times, do not forget you have a Lord. Take Him into your hearts.
And that was all a miniature masterpiece of the evangelist's art, silencing a boozy crowd in no mood to hear it. Epstein writes, 'All at once they applauded, and Tex put her arm around Aimee. The clapping went on for much longer than her speech had taken.'"

Steel and Ice - Platinum Blue Eyes
Last night after unpacking I decided to play around with some of my new colors. I also reorganized my desk area so I have a lot more room to do my makeup…I moved my BF's stuff out of the way, he he. I was trying to do a look for New Years…my inspiration was a disco ball but I didn't really end up with what I wanted. Instead it was more of a Steely/Icy Blue look which is all good too, I still like it. I didn't do a pic tutorial because honestly I wasn't really sure what I was doing…just experimenting. I'm going to work on a New Years look though and try to get a new webcam so I can post before the NYE. Right now I'm stuck taking multiple pics using my digital camera…. So it'll be the old school pic tutorial for now.
On another note, I can't wait till I get a new digital camera. The one I have has a problem with excess flash…but when I have no flash it's always blurry. Sighhh….me and my cameras, we have problems. My boyfriend and I are celebrating our anniversary January 15th and our gifts to ourselves will be one of those nice professional cameras…you know the one with the big lenses. I can't wait. It'll definitely cut down on the time and effort of me standing in random places in my room trying to avoid too much light!
In the meanwhile, does anybody have any suggestions on a good webcam I can buy to do tutorials? I've already bought two and returned two. The first one was okay until it started freezing my computer and the audio stopped working. The second one had good audio and it sat on my laptop edge better, but the video tracking was too slow…it was like I was moving in slow motion. Any recommendations?
Here's what I used (all MAC unless otherwise stated):
-bare canvas paint
-platinum pigment
-sky blue e/s
-freshwater e/s
-black tied e/s
-reflects gold glitter
-stately black e/s
-kohl pencil in smolder
-imju fiberwig mascara
-ardell gisele false lashes
-eyebrow pencil in spiked
-covergirl lipstick in pillow pink
-lustreglass in flashmode
-blush in dame
-studiotech in NC43
-mineralized skin finish in medium dark

Very bold! I'm loving it.
I'm having a love/hate relationship with my camera. Overall I don't like it and can't wait for the day a Canon is back in my hands. It actually put me in a bad mood yesterday because it was being a pain in the ass, lol.
How cute! You and bf are getting yourselves an SLR. I so want one. You are going to love it. Hubbo's and my 2 year wedding anni is in a couple of days and we're probably just gonna treat ourselves to dinner, hah!

I need to get a new digital camera too so I feel your pain. LOL. At least you can still do EOTDs. I like the silvery blue look. I usually find silvery blues make me look ashy but I'm experimenting with them anyway. (I'll find a way to make it work!)

It's very bright, but definitely wearable! And I don't think your camera is that bad. :) If your flash is too bright, you could always turn it down or use a piece of tissue over it.
To be honest, I've yet to find a good webcam. My boyfriend got me a $100 webcam, and it's still kind of fuzzy. It's not bad, but it's not very clear. I find that the best quality is when filmed with my digital camera; in fact, I think a lot of the videos online are taken by digital cameras.

USB 3.0 is projected to be extremely successful in the digital still camera and digital camcorder markets because most users want to download images to PCs to store video recordings and still pictures or to print pictures, according to analysts from In-Stat.
As picture file sizes increase with camera resolution, and as camcorders move from standard-definition (SD) to high-definition (HD), the desirability of SuperSpeed USB becomes even more apparent, according to In-Stat (www.in-stat.com). As a result, adoption of SuperSpeed USB into digital cameras and camcorders will be much more rapid than other CE device segments, with penetration levels reaching 50% and 60% respectively, by 2014.
"SuperSpeed USB can move 25GB of data in 70 seconds, the same amount of data would take nearly 14 minutes using high-speed USB. This dramatic leap in download times makes the adoption of SuperSpeed USB into digital camcorders and cameras a natural migration. We expect to see the first SuperSpeed USB camcorders hit the market in the second half of 2011," said Brian O'Rourke, principal analyst at In-Stat.
According to the market research firm, nearly 160 million digital TVs will ship with USB in 2014 and approximately 7 million set top boxes will be have integrated SuperSpeed USB.
SuperSpeed USB will reach 40% penetration in the portable digital media player market in five years. 225 million SuperSpeed USB flash drives will ship in 2014, representing a CAGR of 791.8% from 2009 to 2014.

Choosing Bed Frames & Bedding
Adults need at least seven to eight hours of deep sleep to function properly, so it becomes essential to choose the right bed frame for your needs. A bed frame is usually made of metal or wood. Before you purchase a bed frame, ensure:
- The bed frame is sturdy
- If the bed frame needs to be assembled, check what type of tools are required to assemble it
- Check the amount of weight the bed frame can withstand
- Check the material of the bed frame to ensure it can withstand weight for a long period of time
- Check the size of the bed frame to ensure it fits into the allotted space in your bedroom.
- Consider the height of the person who plans to use the bed frame; the length of the bed frame should easily be able to accommodate the height of the person
- Check the height of the bed frame. The height of the bed frame affects the height of the mattress placed on the frame

Clairefontaine GraF It A4 Sketch Pad (8 x 12)
The Clairefontaine mill has been making paper since 1858 and stationery products since 1890. The company is best known for making the first school notebooks in France, and has become famous for their exceptional paper quality. Clairefontaine is currently the only European manufacturer making its own paper for its own products. This guarantees not only consistent quality, but also controls the environmental impact of the manufacturing process.

Paper Properties
Located in the Vosges region of France, Clairefontaine was established in 1863 on the site of a 16th century paper mill. The firm is noted for being the first school stationery manufacturer in France, and, to this day, European students from kindergarten through doctoral studies appreciate the fine quality of Clairefontaine's notebooks.
Clairefontaine is currently the only manufacturer making its own paper for its own products. This guarantees not only consistent quality, but also controls the environmental impact of the manufacturing process. Clairefontaine reduces its water consumption through advanced recycling of the water used in the production process. The water is returned to the River Meurthe cleaner than when it arrived at the Vosges mill. The water is so clean when it leaves the facility local people can fish, boat and swim downstream within sight of the mill.
Another point of interest: The ink of all Clairefontaine and Rhodia products have been changed to abide by the most stringent European environmental standards such as REACH and NF. They are now water based rather than petroleum or solvent based. They are non toxic and non irritating. While the colors remain the same, they are now made from vegetable oil pigments rather than mineral one. Those inks can be made from a variety of sources including soy-bean, corn and linseed oils.

Brief SummaryRead full entry
Perna viridisThe Asian green mussel, Perna viridis, is a large (> 80 mm) bivalve, with a smooth, elongate shell typical of several mytilids (but see below). It has visible concentric growth rings and a ventral margin that is distinctly concave on one side. The characteristic green coloration comes from the periostrocum, the proteinaceous outer layer of the shell. It is uniformly bright green in juveniles, but dulls to brown with green margins in mature individuals. The inner surfaces of the valves are smooth and iridescent blue to bluish-green in color. A prominent, kidney-shaped retractor muscle scar is present, but the species lacks anterior adductor muscles. Close examination of the beak (i.e., where the two valves hinge together) reveals a pair of hinge teeth on the left valve that interlock with a single hinge tooth on the right valve (DeVictor and Knott undated, NIMPIS 2002, Rajagopal et al. 2005).
As is typical of most members of the family, P. viridis attaches to hard surfaces by means of proteinaceous byssal threads.
Green mussels are coastal bivalves, typically occurring at depths of less than 10 m, and shown to be tolerant of a wide range of turbidity and pollution (Power 2004).
The native range of the Asian green mussel broadly encompasses the Asia-Pacific and Indo-Pacific regions. The known introduced range of the species is extensive and includes portions of coastal Australia, Japan, the Caribbean, and North and South America (Benson et al. 2002; NIMPIS 2002).
Green mussels are large, with shells typically reaching 80-100 mm in length and occasionally growing larger than 160 mm (Rajagopal et al. 2005). They live for approximately three years (Power et al 2004).
In parts of their native range, rapid growth rates of up to 6-10 mm per month have been reported. In Tampa Bay where the species has been introduced, even more rapid growth rates of 4-5 mm per week have been reported (Power 2004).
Reproduction is sexual, sexes are separate, and fertilization is external. Onset of sexual maturity is rapid, occurring at 2-3 months of age in parts of the animal's native range and in as little as 1-2 months in parts of its non-native tange, e.g., Tampa Bay (Power 2004).
Green mussels occur in environments whose temperatures range from 10-35ºC and exhibit optimal response at temperatures between 26ºC and 32ºC (Power 2004). Although the reported native thermal range of the green mussel is broad, reduced temperatures have been demonstrated to significantly negatively impact growth rates (Chatterji et al. 1984).
The green mussel is euryhaline, able to tolerate both hypersaline conditions (80 ppt) and reduced salinities, e.g., 12 ppt (Sivalingam 1977, Chatterji et al. 1984, Morton, 1987). An optimal salinity range has been reported as 27-33 ppt (Power 2004).
Although economically important fisheries and aquaculture industries based green mussels exist within their native range, utilization as a food resource in areas into which they have been introduced is uncommon. Consumption of introduced green mussels taken from polluted waters is discouraged as they are known to accumulate some toxic substances.

Upper respiratory infections (URI) in cats are caused by highly contagious viruses. There are vaccines to prevent or minimize this cat illness in felines, and most commonly URIs occur in cats who have not been vaccinated.
The most common clinical signs of a URI include sneezing, coughing, runny nose and/or excess discharge from the eyes. If you notice your cat is displaying any of these signs you should bring your furry friend to your vet to determine what is going on. If the problem is more serious than a passing viral infection, additional treatment may be necessary to keep your cat happy and healthy.
VCA Animal Hospitals reports that most URIs last 7 to 10 days and most are fully resolved within 3 weeks. However, some cats can develop chronic upper respiratory tract infections, which present with similar clinical signs but tend to last longer than a typical URI or recur every few weeks. These infections can be very challenging to treat and often require long term medical therapy to help prevent recurrences.

Avoid scams and surprises on Cyber Monday
Avoid scams and surprises on Cyber Monday
Release date: 11/26/2012
AG Cooper offers tips to protect online shoppers' money and personal info
Thousands of North Carolina consumers braved the crowds on Black Friday to find deals on holiday gifts but many consumers will instead decide to shop online on Cyber Monday. Attorney General Cooper urged online shoppers to take steps to protect their money and their personal information.
"Buying gifts online may help you avoid long lines and crowds, but with convenience comes some risks," Cooper warned. "Use caution when you shop online to save money and prevent stress during this busy holiday season."
Cooper offered the following tips to help holiday shoppers protect themselves from cyber-criminals and bad business deals.
Shop sites you know and trust.
Stick to established companies instead of fly-by-night websites. If an online merchant is new to you, research the company by checking with the Attorney General's Consumer Protection Division and your local Better Business Bureau. You can also check online reviews of merchants and products to spot potential problems.
Do your own price comparison.
Just because a website claims to beat prices at competitor sites or at brick-and-mortar retailers doesn't necessarily mean it's true. To get the best deals, compare prices online and off. Also, beware of counterfeit or knock off products that may not deliver the quality you expect.
Read the return policy carefully.
Some online retailers won't let you return items to their local stores, while others may charge a restocking fee or may not let you return certain items if they've been opened. Many online retailers don't refund shipping and handling charges, so you may have to pay for shipping if you need to make a return or exchange. This can be especially costly if the item was shipped from outside the country.
Know how to contact the company if problems arise.
Get the company's street address and telephone number and verify them before you place an order. Remember to be especially careful when shopping overseas sites, since no U.S. or state agency has legal authority over business deals with companies in other countries.
Consider paying by credit card
. If your order doesn't arrive or isn't what you expected, you can dispute it with your credit card company. Federal law also limits your liability to $50 if your credit card number gets stolen. Get a credit card with a low limit that you use only for online shopping.
Review your credit card statements.
Some consumers have complained recently about unauthorized charges being billed to their account after they shop online. The charges are usually small, $10 or less, and can be easy to miss. Contact your credit card company immediately to report any charges you didn't authorize, and request a refund and a new credit card.
Check site security
before you enter any payment information.
Look for a lock icon on the website and a web address that starts with "https". Remember to check your credit card or bank statement carefully to make sure that you aren't charged more than you agreed to pay, and report any suspicious charges to your bank or credit card company right away.
Ask when your order will arrive.
Internet and catalog shoppers are protected by the Federal Mail Order Rule. By law, a company is required to ship your order within the time stated. If you aren't given a delivery date, the company has 30 days to ship your purchase once your order is received. If the item doesn't ship on time, the seller must let you know and give you a chance to cancel for a full refund.
Print out and save records of all online orders.
Keep the product description, price, online receipt, order number and customer service number. Save any emails the company sends you verifying your purchase or updating you on the status of an order.
Protect your identity.
Guard your Social Security, driver's license and bank account numbers when you shop online. Only share financial information via secure sites, never by email. Don't respond to unsolicited emails or telemarketing calls that ask for your personal information.
"Whether you're shopping online or at the mall, be careful," Cooper said. "You keep your wallet in a safe place when you go shopping and it's just as important to guard your money and your personal information when you shop online."

Mark, At times I'll bake 6 pies on a 3/8 pizza stone. The initial temperature of the stone can reach almost 600 degrees. Immediately after the heat drop to 450 - 480. What would be the heat recovery time be on a 5/8 or 1 inch stone? Thanks,
I have read on many occasions including on the Fibra Ment web site that thicker stones require less recovery time due to the fact that the mass of the stone holds more heat and looses less during baking.
I have done a search here and on Goggle but to this point have not found any specific timed recovery tests. I bet they are out there, perhaps one of our more knowledgeable members has that data.

WC Federal plans new acquisition
Management of Webster City Federal Savings Bank officially announced today their intentions of acquiring Independence Federal Bank for Savings in Independence, Iowa.
The announcement came following the annual meeting of stockholders and after official notification from the Federal Reserve and the Office of the Comptroller of Currency of receipt of the merger and acquisition application.
"We are excited at the opportunity to expand our operations to the community of Independence," said Webster City Federal Savings Bank President and CEO Stephen Mourlam. "Similar to our bank, Independence Federal has been a staple to their community for over 75 years and we anticipate continuing that dedication to providing safe, sound and secure financial services at both locations for another 75."
Located along U.S. Highway 20, Independence is approximately 100 miles east of Webster City and has a population of 5,966, according to the 2010 Census. When asked why Independence was chosen to expand their operations, Mourlam said "We toured the community and met with the management of Independence Federal and drove away knowing it would be a great fit for both institutions."
The application is subject to extensive review from federal regulatory agencies before consummation can be completed but Mourlam said he anticipates the merger should be completed by September 2013.
Webster City Federal Savings Bank has been providing financial services to Hamilton County residents since 1934 and construction of their new 15,000-square-foot financial center is scheduled to begin this spring.
"We have a lot of progressive activities taking place at Webster City Federal Savings Bank and we truly look forward to continuing our efforts by growing to the Independence area," he said.
For more information about Webster City Federal Savings Bank, contact Mourlam at (515) 832-3071 or visit them online at www.webcityfed.com.

Sandwich bags add years to your favorite calculator
Club member Mark Popenhagen of Willoughby, Ohio, offered this suggestion through the member bulletin board at www.HandymanClub.com. Knowing that electronic equipment such as calculators can suffer (and die an early death) from dust allergies and shop grime, Mark sealed his shop calculator in a zipper-type food-storage bag. He can do the math right through the soft plastic covering, adding years to the life of his calculator.

Greetings, Sorry for the long absence. Work and life got in the way again...After reviewing the more recent Shakey's threads I note "That Smell" is still an elusive ingredient. It seems DNA Dan went down a couple paths exploring various yeasts and some sort of vermont cheese powder.Lightmeter
[/color]The process has remained remarkably straightforward. Red and white wheat from the Central Valley pours down chutes into rollers that crush it. That material gets sifted out into coarser or finer sizes.[/size][/color]Whole-wheat flour, which includes the brownish bran, gets a coarser sift. The traditional bleached white flour, however, is much finer and goes through several processing phases to bring it to the soft powder that either pours into sacks loaded onto pallets or goes into a bulk tank, ready to be dumped into semi-trucks.[/size][/color]Some of the smaller sacks make their way to local grocery stores R-N Market and Cost Less Foods.[/size][/color][/size]
Most varieties grown in California are genetically spring wheat varieties, i.e. do not require vernalization, however because the majority of California wheat-growing regions have very mild winter temperatures, spring wheat can be sown in the fall or early winter. Since market classifications typically refer to the season of production, not growth habit, California's red wheat production is referred to as Hard Red Winter wheat.

Teachers at a Seattle high school are refusing to give a district-mandated exam, saying it's a waste of time, reports NPR. Measures of Academic Progress is given up to three times a year from kindergarten through at least ninth grade, in addition to state exams.
Garfield High's academic dean, Kris McBride, MAP doesn't seem to align with district or state curricula. Teachers can't see the test, so they don't know why their students did well or poorly. (MAP adapts to students' performance levels, giving easier or harder questions depending on how well they do, so there is no one exam for all students.)
Portfolios of students' work could replace MAP, writes teacher Jesse Hagopian in a Seattle Times op-ed.
Seattle's ninth- and 10th-grade students already take five state-required standardized tests . . . Seattle Public Schools staff admitted to a Garfield teacher the MAP test is not valid at the high-school level, because the margin of error is greater than expected gains.
. . . Students don't take the MAP seriously because they know their scores don't factor into their grades or graduation status. They approach it less seriously each time they take it, so their scores decline. Our district uses MAP scores in teacher evaluations, even though the MAP company recommends against using it to evaluate teacher effectiveness and it's not mandated in our union contract.
Eleven teachers at ORCA K-8, a Seattle alternative school, have joined the boycott.
More than 60 educators and researchers have signed a statement supporting the test boycott, including Jonathan Kozol, Diane Ravitch and Chicago Teachers Union President Karen Lewis.

The Ultimate Fish Tacos
- 2 pounds mahi mahi (skinned, boned and cleaned) cut into 1-ounce strips
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 3 eggs, lightly beaten
- 4 tablespoons water
- 2 cups panko bread crumbs
- Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
- Vegetable oil, for frying
- 1/2 head savoy cabbage, finely shredded
- 1 bunch cilantro, leaves picked
- 1 bunch chives, chopped
- 3 limes, cut into wedges for garnish
- Pink Chile Mayonnaise:
- 1 cup sour cream
- 1 cup mayonnaise
- 3 chipotles in adobo, plus 2 tablespoons of adobo sauce
- 1/2 lemon, juiced
- Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
- Mango-Radish Salsa:
- 2 limes
- 2 mangoes, diced
- 4 to 5 red radishes, diced
- 1 red onion, diced
- 1 tablespoon chili powder
- 1/2 bunch fresh cilantro, leaves chopped
- 1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil
- Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
DirectionsWatch how to make this recipe.
Prepare the fish. Cut the pieces of fish into 1-ounce strips. Set up a breading station of flour, lightly beaten eggs with water, and seasoned panko bread crumbs. Season all with salt and pepper. Dredge the pieces of fish in flour, egg then bread crumbs. Once all the fish is breaded deep-fry in small batches in (375 degrees F) oil. Drain on paper towels and season with salt. Keep warm until ready to serve.
Prepare the pink chile mayonnaise. Put the chipotles in a blender and puree until smooth. Add the sour cream, mayonnaise, adobo sauce and lemon juice and continue to process until the mixture is consistent and creamy. Season with salt and pepper and refrigerate until ready to use.
Prepare the mango-radish salsa. Remove the peel and pith from the limes and cut between the membranes to remove the segments. Put these "supremes" into a bowl and squeeze over the juice from the membranes. Add the remaining ingredients and mix. Season and refrigerate until ready to use. You can also place all of the ingredients into a food processor and puree for a smoother salsa.
To serve, set up the tacos "family-style". Assemble the fish in a pile on a plate; the pink chile mayonnaise in a bowl; and mango-radish salsa in another. Set a pile of shredded savoy cabbage, cilantro leaves, chopped chives and lime wedges next to the fish. Toast the corn tortillas lightly over an open flame (on your stove top) and serve.

Military Cemeteries
The Brookwood Military Cemeteries
Most of these plots are administered by the Commonwealth War Graves Commission (CWGC). The oldest section dates from 1917, with many subsequent additions representing several different nations. Over 4,220 casualties from both World Wars are buried in the CWGC sections.
The Brookwood Memorial
Additionally there are 468 American war dead, the dead from other nationalities represented here, and other casualties buried elsewhere in the grounds of Brookwood Cemetery. Then there are those servicemen and servicewomen with no known graves who are commemorated on the Brookwood Memorial (3,500 casualties from the Second World War - see photograph above) and the Memorial Chapel in the American section (563 casualties from the First World War - see photograph below). Altogether the Military Cemeteries form about 37 acres, comprising what is the largest military burial ground in the United Kingdom.
The original "British Military Cemetery" was established in 1917. It was used for the burial of soldiers, sailors and nurses who died in hospitals in the London Military District.
The Memorial Chapel in the American Military Cemetery
Sections include the dead from the United Kingdom, Australia, Canada, New Zealand, South Africa, Newfoundland and the British West Indies. Some of these areas were extended to include casualties from the Second World War.
The Brookwood Cemetery Society organises guided walks during the course of the year, some of which feature some of these areas.

- 1/2 pound ground beef
- 3/4 pound bulk hot sausage
- 3/4 pound ground sweet sausage
- 1 egg
- 3/4 cup bread crumbs, 3 generous handfuls, Italian or plain
- 1/2 cup grated Parmigiano or Romano, a couple of handfuls
- 1/8 pound pancetta, 4 slices, chopped
- 3 cloves garlic, chopped
- Splash red wine
- 1/2 cup beef stock
- 1 can petite diced tomatoes or stewed tomatoes
- 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
- 2 teaspoons hot sauce
- Serving suggestion: green salad
Preheat oven to 425 degrees F.
Heat a small skillet over medium heat with 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil. When the oil is hot, saute the red pepper, half the onions, celery and carrots together, 5 minutes, season with salt and pepper then remove to a plate to cool.
Mix ground beef and sausages with egg, bread crumbs, cheese, and cooled vegetables. Form 4 large oval shaped patties no more than 1 1/4 inches thick then drizzle with extra-virgin olive oil. Place in the oven on a cookie sheet and bake 17 to 18 minutes, until cooked through.

Stir in the beef stock and tomatoes and season sauce heavily with coarse black pepper. Add Worcestershire and hot sauce and reduce heat to warm.

President Obama makes his first bid on new budget talks today with a statement at the White House.
The president, who has largely stayed out of public sight in the two days since his re-election, is likely to call again for higher taxes on the wealthy as part of a "balanced" approach to start reducing the nation's $16 trillion-plus federal debt.
At 1:05 p.m. in the East Room, Obama is scheduled to deliver a statement "about the action we need to keep our economy growing and reduce our deficit," the White House schedule says.
Obama is also likely to emphasize the need for Congress to work together to avoid a slew of tax hikes that would take effect at the start of the year in the absence of a new deal with the White House.
House Speaker John Boehner, R-Ohio, told USA TODAY's Susan Davis he will seek a short-term deal to delay the "fiscal cliff," and he will resist efforts to make major tax and spending changes in the lame duck session of Congress.
"I've never seen a lame duck Congress do big things," Boehner said. "And as speaker, I feel pretty strongly that a lame duck Congress shouldn't do big things."
Boehner and other Republicans argue that any tax increases would slow the economy and cost jobs.
From the Associated Press:
"A new Congressional Budget Office report on Thursday predicted that the economy would fall into recession if there is a protracted impasse in Washington and the government falls off the fiscal cliff for the entire year. The analysts say such a scenario would cause a spike in the jobless rate to 9.1% by next fall.
"The CBO analysis says the cliff -- a combination of automatic tax increases and spending cuts -- would cut the deficit by $503 billion through next September, but the fiscal austerity would cause the economy to shrink by 0.5% next year and cost millions of jobs."

OSU, Miami announce commencement speakers
The Columbus Dispatch - February 24, 2012 11:02 AM
It's that time of year again when Ohio colleges and universities start announcing their commencement speakers.
International relations scholar Richard Herrmann will give Ohio State University's winter address. About 2,100 students will receive degrees at the ceremony, which begins at 2 p.m. on March 18 at the Jerome Schottenstein Center.
At Miami University, prolific composer, musician and two-time Academy Award-winner A.R. Rahman of "Slumdog Millionaire" fame will be the commencement speaker at the school's spring ceremony on May 5.
A member of Ohio State's political science faculty since 1981, Herrmann specializes in security and conflict studies, political psychology, and politics in the Middle East and Russia. He directed the university's Mershon Center for International Security Studies from 2002 to 2011, and in July 2011 was named chairman of the Political Sciences department.
Herrmann has written extensively on international relations, U.S–Russian relations during the Cold War, the politics of the Middle East, and U.S. relations with Iran. He has also traveled frequently to the Middle East, lecturing and conducting research in Israel and the West Bank, as well as in Egypt, Iraq, Jordan, Kuwait, Saudi Arabia, Syria, and the United Arab Emirates. In addition, he served on Secretary of State James Baker's staff at the U.S. Department of State from 1989 to 91.
A native of Cleveland, Herrmann earned his bachelor's degree in political science from Miami University in 1974, and his doctorate from the University of Pittsburgh in 1981.
Rahman is a star at Miami and beyond. His musical compositions in the movie "Slumdog Millionaire" earned him two Oscars, two Grammy awards, a Golden Globe, a BAFTA award and a Broadcast Film Critics Association Award.
He recently collaborated with Mick Jagger to perform on the album "SuperHeavy." Described by Time magazine as the "Mozart of Madras" and as possibly the most prolific recording artist in the world, Rahman was named in 2009 as one of the "100 Most Influential People" in the world by the magazine.

Student Organizations
You are here
Student organizations are where leadership skills may be gained and perfected. They provide students an opportunity to pursue their interests, to explore new interest, to expand cultural competencies, and build social assets. Having membership in a student organizations enables students to build and apply organizational and individual capacities for the public good. At Delaware State University, student organizations and groups are governed by the Delaware State University Student Handbook, Student Organization and Advisor's Handbook, Judicial Affairs Handbook, and all other DSU policies and procedures that cover conduct on campus.
There are a variety of student organizations at Delaware State University for students to learn and grow as a valuable member of the campus community. Please click here for a list of current registered organizations. You may contact the Office of Student Leadership and Activities for more information on student organizations and membership.
All student organizations must register with the Office of Student Leadership and Activities (OSLA) by September 30th of the fall semester. Student organizations register as a New Student Organization or a Returning Student Organization. For more information, please consult the STUDENT ORGANIZATION AND ADVISOR HANDBOOK.
New Student Organization
New student organizations must fill out the NEW STUDENT ORGANIZATION application form and return it to OSLA by the September 30th registration deadline. Upon submission of the application, the new student organization must have at least five member which will encompass their executive board.
Returning Student Organizations
Returning RSO's must update their organizational roster and advisor information packet and return it to OSLA by the September 30th deadline. PLEASE NOTE: No activities are permitted until after the organizational roster and advisor information has been successfully updated.
Membership in student organizations is limited to full-time students, unless otherwise authorized by the OSLA Director or Vice President for Student Affairs. Membership must be open to all full-time DSU students except for groups where membership is based upon specific skills or achievements (e.g. Departmental Clubs, honor societies, etc.).
Members of student organizations are required to conduct themselves according to the codes of conduct outline in the Student Handbook, Judicial Handbook, and the Student Organization and Advisor's handbook as well as all other University codes of civility. Organizations that have members who consistently fail to conform to the DSU codes of conduct risk being suspended from operating on campus.
Students seeking membership into an organization can contact the OSLA personnel for assistance and information at firstname.lastname@example.com, 302-857-6390, or in the Martin Luther King Jr. Student Center, Suite 325, Monday through Friday, 9:00AM – 4:00PM.
Every student organization must have at least one on-campus advisor selected from the DSU faculty or professional staff in good standing with the University. Advisors are required to attend the Advisor orientation hosted by OSLA and be approved to advise the organization by the Director of OSLA or Vice President for Student Affairs.
On campus, student leaders represent the student body before faculty, administration, staff, and University guests. Off campus, student leaders represent Delaware State University before the world. Elections for student leaders in the Student Government Association (SGA), Residential Housing Association (RHA), and Campus Activity Board (CAB) are held during the spring semester (typically the beginning of April). Before the elections take place, all candidates vying for positions are required to attend interest meetings and leadership workshops sponsored by OSLA or those authorized by the Vice President for Student Affairs. Students unable to attend the required meetings/workshops must obtain a written approval of absence from the Director of OSLA of Vice President for Student Affairs in order to continue their candidacy. Students who do not attend required meetings/workshops and do not have an approved absence excuse will not move through the election process toward an elected position.
Each candidate for will be interviewed by the Student Leadership Advisory Council prior to the campaigning and promotion to balloted status. Interviews will conclude prior to the mandatory campaign workshops. Candidates who are unable to be interviewed will relinquish their candidacy unless they receive written permission from the Vice President for Student Affairs or Director of OSLA that they may continue on through the election process.
Candidates who interview and are selected to attend the mandatory campaign workshop will receive notice of balloted status once the campaign workshops conclude. Those who move on to balloted status are required to complete the campaign mode specific to the role for which they seek candidacy. Royal Court members will ready themselves for the Royal Court pageant managed by Mr. and Miss DSU as governed by the Mr. and Miss DSU and Royal Court Handbook. Candidates seeking roles in SGA, CAB, and RHA are governed by the election process outlined in their Constitution and By-laws to include (but are not limited to) attending Speech Night, Debate Night, and the Speak Out session prior to election day.
Candidates are required to follow election guidelines on Election Day as presented by OSLA. Candidates who fail to comply with Election Day guidelines automatically relinquish their candidacy. Student voting generally decides who wins elected positions with the exception of Mr. and Miss DSU whose roles are guided by the election process outlined in the Mr. and Miss DSU and Royal Court Handbook. Current student leaders host a new student leader luncheon and installation ceremony for elected student leaders. The newly elected student leaders swear in with an official oath of office that upholds the Universities policies and procedures and student organization's Constitution and By-laws.
Hazing is defined as any conduct which subjects another person (whether physically, mentally, emotionally, or psychologically) to anything that may endanger, abuse, degrade or intimidate the person as a condition of membership in an organization, regardless of the person's consent to the activity. Hazing is not permitted by any student organization member, is illegal in most states, and is against the student code of conduct at Delaware State University.
Organizations found to be in violation of this may lose their status as a recognized student organization of the University.
Individual members of student organizations who are found to be in violation of this policy and/or in violation of the Student Judicial code and may be disciplined in accordance with the University's disciplinary procedures.
Students/members are encouraged to report hazing incidents and may contact Delaware State University Public Safety at (302) 857-6290 or 7911; Office of Student Leadership and Activities at (302) 857-6390 or email@example.com; Vice President for Student Affairs at (302) 857-6300; Judicial Affairs at (302) 857-6470.
For more information on Delaware State University that follows the State of Delaware anti-Hazing Policy, including examples of the behaviors that could be construed as hazing, please consult the Delaware Code, Chapter 93 Anti Hazing Law and Delaware State University Student Handbook.

Tomorrow I'll upload some pics of mine, because it's night here now and I prefer the sun's light to take pics.

About the Authors: Phillip Loosli serves as Environment, Science, Technology and Health Officer at U.S. Embassy Kuala Lumpur and Kelly Milton serves in the Bureau of Oceans and International Environmental and Scientific Affairs.
Senior officials from the six nations of the Coral Triangle Initiative (CTI) on Coral Reefs, Fisheries and Food Security adopted the Coral Triangle Initiative regional governance structure at the fourth Senior Officials Meeting held October 20-22 in Kota Kinabalu, Malaysia. Senior officials confirmed how the six CTI countries will collectively conserve and manage the world's epicenter of marine biodiversity as well as established guidelines for establishing a permanent secretariat. Officials also agreed to issue a joint CTI statement to highlight ocean and coastal concerns to be delivered at the United Nations Framework on Climate Change Convention (UNFCCC) this December in Copenhagen. These major outcomes and further discussion regarding the location of the permanent secretariat will be presented for endorsement at the Second Ministerial Meeting to occur in Ghizo, the Solomon Islands, from November 18-19, 2009.
The Coral Triangle Initiative constitutes a collaboration of six nations that inhabit the world's largest concentration of coral reefs and marine biodiversity, which includes the Philippines, Malaysia, Indonesia, Solomon Islands, Timor-Leste, and Papua New Guinea. This 5.7 million square km. area of ocean and islands supports the livelihood for 120 million people and food for many more. The area is threatened by over- and destructive fishing, land- and sea-based pollution, and climate change. Indonesian President Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono initiated the Coral Triangle Initiative on the sidelines of the December 2007 Bali UNFCCC climate change talks. The Heads of State from the six Coral Triangle countries formally endorsed the implementation of the CTI Regional Plan of Action at the 2009 CTI Summit in Manado, Indonesia, this past May.

It's great to see that we start to step up the conservation of the marine life it's not like it's important or anything.

1. Each country should be accountable and responsible for making work for it's people. It should not be the United States Magic Wand to repair everyones problems. We have enough problems in our own country to deal with on a daily basis. Where is the support from the World Leaders on what they are doing to make JOBS?
2. I have a newsflash for everyone and that is if the economy does not change, policies are not mended to reflect what work needs to be done, if prices at local markets do not come down, or gas prices continue to rise, people will find it difficult to survive these hard times.
3. You can't continue borrow money from other countries, it's about time the United States stands on it's own two feet. Our Nation should find a way to pay back what we owe to China and other countries, the sooner the better.
4. The people who created the North Atlantic Free Trade, pretty much destroyed our Factories, our Manufacturing, and our JOBS here in the United States of America. When Mexico can drive those 18-wheeler trucks across our borders with goods that our country could be producing, while illegals continue crossing our borders in the USA and sending money back to Mexico illegally should be dealth with, anytime an illegal works, makes money and sends it home, something is wrong with this picture. They are taking American jobs away, while giving the money to another country.
5. I know what would create jobs in the United States and the world. Millions of jobs and it would also give our country a chance to get out of this reccession the news keeps saying we left but did we? Look around, people loss over 190,000 jobs last month alone. No new contracts, No new JOBS.
6. The biggest problem in the country is, we have far too many vehicles on the road. Were consuming too much energy, the only way were going to help create jobs, is when we change the method of how we get from one point to another, and doing it with trains, busses which carry hundreds of passengers, not 24 or 26 maximum capacity. Rules and Laws need to be changed in order for the public to have busses to be the size of trains that can carry 300-400 passengers at one time. This would remove 200-300 vehicles off the road for each car which is guzzling gas. For everyone bus that carries 400 people, just imagine the cost savings from one state to another on those long trips. A diesel 18 Wheeler with a bus train of 10 coach vehicles would be far cheaper on the highways then say 400 or a thousand vehicles all burning gas.
