If it's fast, downhill and on ice, it's likely having a world championship this weekend. That's the case at least for bobsled/skeleton, luge and alpine skiing. Several other sports — both winter and summer — have competitions going on throughout the world this weekend. Check out the Team USA Weekend Preview for all the details.

Two-time Olympian Erin Hamlin, the 2009 world champion, will chase after gold in the women's competition Saturday. She is ranked seventh in the World Cup standings. Also racing are 2010 Olympian Julia Clukey, Emily Sweeney and Kate Hansen.
"Really, all I have been doing is trying to get relaxed and a little fine-tuning here and there," Hamlin said of her training runs this week. "It is probably going to be a pretty tight race. But overall, I always love being in Whistler."

New Dean Appointed for School of Divinity
By Brett Wilson | February 12, 2013
Dr. Amos Yong
Photo Courtesy of University Marketing
Dr. Amos Yong has been named dean of Regent University's School of Divinity, effective Feb. 15. Yong formerly served as the J. Rodman Williams Professor of Theology as well as director of Doctor of Philosophy degree program. He has been a member of Regent's faculty since 2005.
"Dr. Yong is one of the most celebrated theological scholars in the world, and we are blessed to have him leading the school to even higher levels of excellence and accomplishment for God's glory," said Regent President, Dr. Carlos Campo.
Regent is not the only institution to recognize Yong's excellence in the study of theology. In March 2012, Yong was awarded the prestigious Henry Luce III Fellowship in Theology, a national honor given to only half a dozen professors annually.
Yong expressed several goals and visions he has for the School of Divinity, and plans to support, nurture and serve the greater Regent community. Most importantly, Yong wants to develop a generation of School of Divinity students and faculty who share his passion for Biblical knowledge.
"I really want to use my time as dean to empower students and faculty," said Yong. "In all that we do, I want us all to be fully engaged in learning about important theological issues."
In his career, Yong has published and edited more than a dozen theological books, and journal articles. He has also taught a breadth of classes at Regent ranging from Theology in Global Context to Renewal and Science. Yong also shares a passion and responsibility for aiding doctoral students in their research of areas including interfaith dialogue, Global Pentecostalism and Political Theology.
Before he began his time as a professor at Regent, Yong received his Ph.D. in theology from Boston University. He obtained his master's degree in history from Portland State University and his master's from Western Evangelical Seminary in History of Christian Thought. Yong also earned his bachelor's in ministry from Bethany College.
With his educational background and willingness to lead the School of Divinity in its spiritual vitality, Yong is undoubtedly fortified for the position ahead of him.
"Dr. Robertson has always had a vision that the seminary would be one of the most amazing in the country," said Yong. "I'm excited about the prospects of that and working in that direction."

Here's how RW members rated this race in the past (222 votes).
In short: A well organised and challenging pre FLM event. Hard to beleive you can get his much undualtion in a county like CambssDate of review: January 20, 2008
In short: Very well organised. Parking a pain but unavoidable.In full: Second year for me so I thought I knew what to expect - apart from the wind! Really well run race, congratulations to Yaxley Runners. As it's one of very few 15 milers I expect I'll be back next yesr. Date of review: February 7, 2007
In short: very good organizedDate of review: January 24, 2007
In short: Excellent race, liked the two lap formatDate of review: January 24, 2007
In short: Car parking could have been better. Apart from that a very enjoyable race and day out.Date of review: January 23, 2007
In short: Good, challenging and well organised raceIn full: The parking was initially off putting but was actually very slick, with no wait at either end. Given the size of the village and what Yaxley have to work with, I think they did a brilliant job. Crowd support was good, PB by means of the unusual distance, only suggestion would be just afew more toilets. I'm not sure how they managed to have me finishing 6 and a half mins after I actuallly did but even so I would still recommend the event. Date of review: January 22, 2007
In short: Car parking arrangements stupid. A grass verge some two miles from HQ.In full: I was so put off by the crazy park and ride situation I drove home and did not take part in the race. In the past I have always rated this event as one of the best. Runners invest time, energy and money to get to the start line and thanks to all the helpers that turn out and make it work. But organisers please sort out the parking as it was rubbish and not fair on runners or helpers. As I never ran I cannot complete the review so top marks to all but organisation-parking. Date of review: January 22, 2007
In short: Car parking miles from HQ which was too far from startIn full: We had to park about two miles from race HQ and bussed by mini bus. HQ had no changing or showers and was overcrowded. The start was a good 10 minute walk from HQ. The logistics were crazy but the race was well marshalled with plenty of drinks stations and a good atmosphere.Date of review: January 22, 2007
In short: Great course , beautiful weather and well organised all making it a great raceDate of review: January 22, 2007
In short: I had a good race so that's reflected in the marksIn full: I was sceptical that the mini bus service from the rather distant car park would work but it was very good. We hardly had to wait either coming or going. Well done organisers.Date of review: January 22, 2007

Tougher DUI laws necessary
It certainly appears that tougher penalties are on the horizon for motorists caught driving under the influence in North Dakota.
The state Senate unanimously passed Senate Bill 2240 this week, which would dramatically increase the penalties for DUI offenses.
A first offense would bring a $500 fine, and if the person's blood alcohol content was higher than .18, the sentence would include two days in jail or 20 hours of community service.
A?second offense within seven years would bring 10 days in jail, a $1,000 fine and a mandatory 12 month-participation in the 24/7 program, where violators must submit to alcohol testing twice a day. A?third offense in seven years would bring a 120-day jail sentence, a fine of at least $2,000 and a minimum of two years probation and participation in the 24/7 program.
The new law would bring with it issues that must be dealt with. Cities must be prepared to handle the increased usage of the 24/7 program. There will undoubtedly be more short-time residents in county jails, at a time when some jails, especially in the western part of the state, are already crowded. Then there's the issue of funding.
Having said that, North Dakota absolutely needs to strengthen its laws against driving under the influence, which have been too lenient for some time now. Senate Bill 2240 would be a good start toward reducing the number of repeat offenders in the state. We anticipate it will also pass the House, and become law soon after. And that will be a good thing for the citizens of the state.

Little Dipper Pizza Fondue Recipe
Day 365, take two.
I was annoyed with the white bean soup with fennel and spinach I made for dinner, but had all the stuff in the house to make a pizza fondue.
So I did.
I used the Little Dipper because I puffy heart LOVE it, but you could use an oven-safe dish inside a regular crockpot to create a smaller cooking vessel. Or you could increase the quantities.
The Ingredients.
--1 cup pasta sauce (my sauce had chunked mushrooms, it was perfect)
--1/2 tsp Italian seasoning
--10 pieces pepperoni, diced
--1 cup shredded cheese (I used a combo of mozzarella, cheddar, and swiss)
The Directions.
Count out 10 pieces of pepperoni. Then eat the rest of the package.
Put the pasta sauce into your Little Dipper, and plug it in. Add the Italian seasoning and diced pepperoni. Shove in the cup of shredded cheese. I promise it will fit. Cover and leave plugged in (there are no heat settings on a Little Dipper) for 45 min or so.
Stir well and serve with tortilla chips, bread sticks, or crustini.
I made some crustini with the Food for Life brown rice bread. I cut the pieces in slices, then brushed olive oil on each side. Sprinkle with kosher salt and pepper. Bake at 400 degrees for about 15 min, flipping once half-way through.
The Verdict.
This was great. We spread out a blanket in front of the TV and had a carpet picnic with the pizza fondue and watched Redbox dvds. How come I didn't know about redbox earlier?
good stuff.
Having a fondue party?
you really should.
fancy cheese fondue
chocolate fondue
peanut butter fondue
marshmallow fluff fondue
pumpkin pie dip
cream cheese, sausage, and Rotel dip (AKA mommy crack)

Skip to comments.Dogs automatically imitate people
Posted on 07/28/2010 10:22:29 AM PDT by Nachum
Some dogs may look like their owners, but all dogs imitate their human companions
If imitation is the sincerest form of flattery, dogs often shower us with praise. New research has just determined dogs automatically imitate us, even when it is not in their best interest to do so.
The study, published in the latest Proceedings of the Royal Society B, provides the first evidence that dogs copy at least some of our body movements and behaviors in ways that are spontaneous and voluntary.
(Excerpt) Read more at msnbc.msn.com ...
Could also explain his sudden interest in
hot dogs and beer...
My dog farts and lays around a lot. I guess I'm to blame.
I knew I should have stopped licking myself when we got the puppy.
My dog barks a lot. My wife talks a lot. Hmm.
I try not to sniff butts when the dog is around, but he must have seen me anyway.
And the leg humping, too.
Makes sense... Now I know where he learned how to scratch... But I'm not sure where he learned to lick certain parts of his body... lol
I guess that explains Bo cr@pping all over the White House lawn.
First comment at the article;
"This should make training a puppy to poop outside much easier!"
I don't know about you guys, but I think this study has it backwards...we actually try to imitate our dogs...I have learned to enjoy a lifestyle of sleeping, eating, hunting and fishing, or otherwise playing, and mating...I don't really like work anymore. For further evidence...my wife calls me a dog while never referring to the dogs as human...
I find this a little suspicious. I do not dig holes and poop in the yard.
LOL....and stiffing tail!
I believe this. Years ago...when I first tried to get my dog to play Frisbee,,,,she kept trying to catch it with her hands.
I had to take her to a friends house and his dog showed her how to catch it in her mouth. She never tried using her paws again.
Wolfie...she was literally, the smartest damn dog I had ever seen. HUGE vocabulary. (listening not speaking!)
A sign on my door says, "My dog attacks dim-o-rats". Guess this is true. Wait... I am like my dog!
I knew I shouldn't go dig up the voles for midnight snacks, but I just couldn't help myself.
lol! An oldie but a goodie.
It does supoort the article's premise.
My dogs have a definite preference to lay their heads on a pillow when on the sofa or the bed. It's funny to see. Whether it was learned behavior or natural, I don't know. The girl will sometimes sit upright and lean back on the sofa, just as a person sits; I have never seen another dog do that.
Laughing at the image — my dog does that too. She lies in bed under the covers with her head on the pillow as if she were human.
I read about another study that claimed to show there was nothing "man's best friend" altruistic about the domesticated dog's behavior towards humans.
They acquired (possibly over many generations) behaviors that they learned that humans would reward them for, fostering behaviors in humans to act like their parents and take care of them; feed them, give them a home and a "family". The author called them something like "smart, sly, wonderful, little parasites".
My dog-loving sense was not offended. It does not matter why (dogs do what they do), the experience is the reward.
One of my favorites: "If there are no dogs in Heaven, then when I die I want to go where they went." Will Rogers, 1897-1935
My dog loves her pillow. She kept stealing one from the bed and carrying it down to the sofa until we just went ahead and bought a new pillow for my husband.
She sits upright in the front passenger seat of the car, and leans back..but the funniest thing is that she will often stretch out her right "arm" as thought she is driving right along with you. Good thing we don't have one of those "driver's ed" cars with the brake on the passenger side; we would be stopping every 10 feet to check out the pheasants, squirrels, etc...LOL!
Any dog-owner Freeper can tell you the same thing without a government grant.

Every week Casefile Clues brings you one or more of the following:
- Sources--Some weeks Casefile Clues focuses on a specific source or type of record, discussing how that source can be accessed, researched, and interpreted.
- Methodology--Some weeks Casefile Clues works on one of Michael's problems. Many times these problems are "in progress," and Casefile Clues reflects that by explaining what was researched, why it was researched, and where to go next (and why).
- Case Studies--Some weeks Casefile Clues focuses on a specific record on a specific person and analyzes that record, discusses what it says (and what it does not) and where to go next based upon that person and the specific record.
- Citations--Casefile Clues includes citations of sources and records. Articles can easily be read without them, but we include citations for those who prefer to have them and we do try and model citations in the style of Evidence Explained.
- Reasons--Casefile Clues tries to give you insight into why certain research avenues were pursued over others. Often the genealogist simply does not have time or money to locate every piece of paper available. Sometimes it is necessary to go with what likely will give us the "most bang for the buck."
- Readable--We work very hard to make Casefile Clues readable. Columns are not "fluff" or generic "how-to" pieces.
- Coverage--Casefile Clues covers all American time periods and records. All families discussed come from the ancestry of Michael's children who lived in a variety of states and countries. All examples are from actual families on which Michael has worked or is working. If you are subscribing when Casefile Clues begins discussing Philip Troutfetter, you'll see that you just can't make this stuff up.
And no agenda--because there are no advertisers to irritate, I can say whatever I want. I'm usually not controversial because it is about the research. But if I use something or mention it, it is because I actually use it.
And if really want to help---consider having Michael present at your seminar or workshop. Handouts and "overheads" are regularly updated, often with newsletter examples, and I've been called "engaging," "entertaining," and "informative." I know you're not going to remember every word I say, so I keep that in mind when presenting. The goal of my presentations is to motivate you by the use of examples to get out there and get researching and to write and analyze in the process.

Thursday through Sunday the Fly Creek Cider Mill & Orchard continues its
Taste of Fly Creek Series
with its wide array of Hot Sauces.
Six of the Mill's top selling sauces will be sampled along with holiday recipe ideas that will spice up any picnic. Hot sauces all share in common the use of chili peppers, including Jalapeno, Habanero, Cayenne, and Chipoltes [smoked jalapenos]. They are infused in vinegar and salt, or oil, and other ingredients are added to add extra heat, such as capsaicin and mustards. Other ingredients are used to add flavor, mellow the heat, and thicken the sauce. Learn how to make spicy chicken strips and hot wings for a summer BBQ.
Sampling hours will be 10:00 – 4:00 every day. There is no fee for this special event and parking is free. The Mill is open daily 9:00 – 6:00. For more information, directions and special coupons visit the Mill's website at www.flycreekcidermill.com.

Since its opening in 1977, the Morikami Museum and Japanese Gardens has invited guests to discover Japanese culture through world-class exhibits and events. This summer, the cultural hub will continue to carry the torch. Although curator and cultural director Tom Gregersen has recently retired, his enduring passion for authentic Japanese cultural experiences lives on through the many showcases being offered in the coming months.
On June 4, the Morikami will unveil two new exhibits, "Wood Be Kindred Spirits: The Kokeshi Dolls of Bob Brokop" and "Tanabata: Japan's Star Festival—Views of Tanabata in São Paulo" to run through the summer. Both exhibits celebrate the sentiment of love in Japanese culture in different but equally captivating ways.
"Wood Be Kindred Spirits" is a fitting name for the exhibit celebrating the Kokeshi dolls of Bob Brokop. These simple wooden figures with oversized heads originated in the mid-nineteenth century in northern Japan to offer a comforting familiarity to the beholder.
The whimsical and childlike expressions painted on the faces of the kokeshi are said to sooth teething infants and comfort mothers of unborn children, bringing joy in times of pain. The Morikami exhibit will feature one of the largest collections of rare kokeshi in the United States, all handcarved and creatively painted to communicate a playful sense of wonder.
The felicity offered by the kokeshi will extend to the Morikami's other star attraction, "Tanabata: Japan's Star Festival—Views of Tanabata in São Paulo, Brazil by Jade Matarazzo." The display celebrates the annual reuniting of the deities Orihima and Hikoboshi, two lovers tragically separated by the Milky Way until the seventh day of the seventh lunar month.
Brazilian photographer Jade Matarazzo has artfully captured the celebration of Tanabata in São Paulo, Brazil, home to the largest Japanese community outside of Japan. The uniquely blended colors and varied focus of Matarazzo's lens make the photographs hum with a feeling of timeless excitement, an unending fervor for this celebration of the devotion between two star-crossed lovers.
In addition to the palpable enthusiasm of the subjects in the photographs, the fusion of Brazilian and Japanese culture offers a rich contrast between the old and new generations in São Paulo, Matarazzo says. The photographs in her exhibit allow a glimpse at a unique cultural exchange that instills both excitement and a calm sense of unity.
This exhibition is made possible by the support of West Encounters East a concept and documentary developed by Miami-based art historian and museum trustee Stella Holmes, who has promoted Matarazzo and many other artists in an effort to encourage mutual awareness and tolerance between cultures.
- The "Kokeshi" and "Tanabata" exhibits open June 4 and run through September 15.

Rated 5 out of 5�by Kingdom Great I always needed something that would give the support my ankle to able me full stability. The stabilizer does that, and more. It keeps my ankle from any pain during a three hour game of softball. I would recommend this product to my friends or anyone else that would be looking. July 19, 2016

Rated 4 out of 5�by FootballDad Great fit and function! Slightly difficult to slide on. Would have given 5/5 stars but it's a bit tight to slide on easily for my son. We purchased these to go on over socks to wear inside cleats. They work very well and he may not need to tape his ankles for football. He says they eliminated excessive ankle roll and still give great range if motion. I would highly recommend May 5, 2015

Artist facilities working group meeting 3 feb 2010 minutes
Julie (minutes), Jude, Nix (facilitator), Shirley, Lucilla, Rachel, Sam, Grant, Gandolf, Stephen, Simon
P: Proposal
AP: Action Point
Updates (including project descriptions)
Hall project
Darkroom update (Lucilla)
ID cards are now made.
We need people to take on inductions and workshops as Lucilla can't do them all.
P: how about making a small guide for the darkroom use. This will make it easier for new people to make the inductions. OK
AP: Shirley
What do we do with the disposal of chemicals?
P: Talk to the council and figure it out.
AP: Lucilla
It would be nice to have an online booking system/webpage with a gallery. It could be used to show the work done in darkroom and it could be used for workshops/feeback sessions.
AP: Nix to speak to Milk to get this made (the address could be www.theforest.org.uk/darkroombooking)
Balconies update (Nix):
All studios are full and paid for, and all users are up to date on vollie hours
Nix say's sorry, my balcony is messy and I will clean it up
AP: Nix to tidy up
SoundTeam update (Julie):
We are up to date with sound engineers. We actually have too many and the "old" ones don't get to do so many shifts.
P: How about having 2 sound engineers working at once - they can learn from aech other. OK.
Earth hum - seems to be gone.
Cave update (Grant):
The cave is in use - great!
The online booking system is not working yet
AP:Nix and Mike to make it work.
How to run induction sessions?
P: Grant will contact people and arrange a suitable day with them instead of having one fixed day a week. OK
Wednesday nights 7-8pm are silent hour + during special gigs in the café (because noisy rehearsals in the cave disturbs quiet gigs in the café)
P: Cave will be booked empty during silent events IF gig in café is booked one week in advance.
AP: Nix to speak to Café and Events WG about this.
This means we will have to change the booking system a bit,
AP: Nix to ask Mike to remove "no booking after 9" from the webpage

The KM toolbox is nearly ready and will be locked behind the sounddesk in the café.

It is currently a dead project as we have noone to run it (Fanny no longer lives in Edinburgh). We need a new bottomliner.
Rachel will take on the task! Jude and Gandolf can help her, they have woodwork skills.

This commentary originally appeared on the EDF Voices Blog.
Mounting scientific evidence underscores the crucial importance of reducing methane emissions in the U.S. The latest study, published today in the journal Science, reviewed available data from the past 20 years and found that methane emissions from the U.S. natural gas supply chain are almost two times greater than current official estimates – flagging once again that methane emissions are a serious problem. However, the Stanford-led team also concluded that the current levels of methane leakage negates the climate benefit of switching to natural gas under some scenarios and not others, such as moving from coal-powered to natural gas electric generation.
As for what contributes to the higher than expected emissions, the study authors cited differing measurement techniques—including "bottom-up" direct measurement at the source, "top-down" readings from aircraft, and others—as well as the presence of "super-emitters" (a small number of sites or pieces of equipment producing a large share of emissions). Super-emitters are not easily sampled using most bottom-up direct measurement approaches. The team also spotlighted challenges associated with an increasingly ambiguous distinction between emissions from natural gas and oil production, both of which contribute methane to the atmosphere.

Grave Digger -- Liberty Or Death
The first thing I like about this album is the kickass cover.
As some of you know, I reall like the band Grave Digger. Some of you don't like Chris Boltendahl's vocals, but I do. If he didn't sing like that, then Grave Digger would just be 'another metal band.' And I think it is pretty awesome that they have kept the same vocalist since their formation in 1980.
I am sure a few of you are aware that many of Grave Digger's albums carry some underlying theme. The three GD albums I had before
Liberty or Death
were all conceptual albums.
Tunes of War
focused on Scottish history,
on King Arthur, and
Last Supper
focused mainly on Christ (though other themes were explored.) For their 12th Full-length release, Grave Digger decided to dwell on the idea of freedom and liberty. And with that in mind, I present to you a play-by-play analysis of this album.
The title track starts off the album with the eerie symphonies of a raging storm and a chilling haunted house keyboard. The other musicians dive in slowly, and then after a minute and twenty-five seconds, you are hit with one of those killer Grave Digger riffs. These guys are the definition of traditional/classic heavy metal. The drums are not unbearable wacky and the guitars/bass are driving and memorable. The title of the song pretty much gives away the song's theme. One thing on this song that I hadn't really noticed on the other albums is that there is an almost choral echo behind Chris' voice on most of the choruses on this album. I haven't decided whether I like that or not. Its epic, but is it necessary?
Ocean of Blood starts off with yet another killer riff. This one REALLY gets the blood flowing. The audience is hit with one of those "diving wahs" that you would only expect from an 80s band. Lyrically, this song focuses on Moses and the Jewish exodus from Egypt. At this point, the word "freedom" starts getting a little annoying...Wish they would have choose something else.
Track three is called Highland Tears. After 11 long years, we finally see the return of the war drums and the serenade of bagpipers playing the tunes of war. The sad bagpipery move into another riff. The verse of this song is rockin, and when you get to chorus, someone else starts singing (supposed to be some Scottish prisoners, I guess.) This song is a great sing-along.
The riff on The Terrible One (a first-person account from Ivan) is pretty slow, but still great for foot-tapping. This song has a pretty neat (but predictable) trad-metal solo. Until The Last King Died starts out pretty 'industrial', with some clanking drums and screeching bass. Then the slow riff comes in, but suddenly ends at the verse. The first half of the verse consists of Chris trying to sing creepily, with a few pick-scrapes..Doesnt work very well. The riffs on this song arent as memorable as some others, but they aren't terrible. Again, overusage of the word 'liberty.'
March of the Innocent starts with an acoustic guitar, some booming cymbal strikes transition into a really power-metallic riff. This song is kinda ackward, because they are Germans singing passoniately about the Holocaust...It sounds very weird with Chris' accent. Silent Revolution was the first single I heard off this album, and it pretty much rocks balls. I think the vocals are TOO powerful on this song, but it is the "anthem" of the album. This is probably the most memorable song on Liberty or Death, just because of the chorus. The end of the offers this gem:
What difference does it make
To the dead, the orphans, and the homeless,
Whether the mad destruction is wrought
Under the name of totalitarianism
Or the holy name of liberty and democracy
And for that I had to died???
Shadowland is a song about the slave trade. Okay-Germans singing about the holocaust is okay..But white europeans singing from the perspective of the African's trying to survive the slave trade is just weird. Once you get this deep into the album, the riffs don't seem as spectacular, but the song isnt bad. OH WAIT! DID I SPEAK TOO SOON? Forecourt to Hell punches you in the face with another driving riff and one of Chris' screechs. "ALRIGHT!!!" And he actually gets to sing Latin (the first I have heard) in this Gladiator epic. The final track is somewhat of a ballad, dealing with the Jewish fortification known as Massada. Chris' voice pretty much ruins any softness that was being attempted here. Oh well.
Overall, if you like traditional metal, power metal, or just some kickass, foot-tapping riffage, get this album. If you don't like Chris' voice, then you dont have to listen. They have made it this far without any mainstream attention; something has to be going right for them.
Rating: 8.5/10
Pros: riffage, simple but driving drums, thoughtful and memorable lyrics, great musicianship.
Cons: vocals could be altered in a few places, though there are no fillers, some songs could have used some work, overuse of some lyrics.
It is in truth not for glory, not riches,
Not honours that we are fighting for,
But for freedom
For that alone, which no honest man
gives up but with life itself
We are the last fighting against a past
To be free.
EDIT: My wireless keyboard's batteries are dying, and I am very tired, so there are probably alot of spelling/grammar mistakes in this review....

Schumer pushing to stop student loan rate increase
OBSERVER Staff Report
With a deadline of June 30, interest rates for the federally-subsidized Stafford loans may double if Congress does not take action. Senator Charles E. Schumer recently launched his fight to stave off this interest rate increase.
This interest rate increase for student loans could raise the cost of attending college for tens of thousands of Upstate New York students and their families. Unless Congress takes action quickly, the interest rates on federally-subsidized Stafford loans will double on July 1 from 3.4 percent to 6.8 percent, which could add thousands of dollars in interest payments to the cost of attending college. The rate increase would not apply to loans that are currently in repayment or that have already been disbursed, but rather new loans that will be disbursed after July 1. Students still attending school after July 1 that need to take out new federally-subsidized Stafford loans would pay higher rates on the new loans only, adding to their already stacking debt.
In 2007, Congress lowered the rate on federally-subsidized Stafford loans – currently held by about 285,000 students in Upstate New York colleges and universities. In Western New York, more than 60,000 students receive Stafford loans including 1,293 students at Jamestown Community College and 3,464 at SUNY Fredonia.
Last year, Schumer helped lead the successful effort in Congress to freeze interest rates for need-based federal student loans, preventing them from doubling for a year. Schumer will vow to join the lead sponsor Senator Jack Reed (D-RI) in bringing the Student Loan Affordability Act of 2013, to the Senate floor before the "doubling deadline."
"The cost of college is already skyrocketing and there is no sense adding insult to injury by allowing the Stafford loan rate to double, piling additional costs on students and families," Schumer said. "Congress needs to come together to extend the rate at its current level, so that more students in Upstate New York can walk across the stage and receive a diploma in the coming years, not less. It's time we do more to invest in our students, not less."
Stafford loans are offered on the full faith and credit of the United States government and, thus, are offered at a lower interest rate than they would be privately. To receive Stafford loans, students must meet rigorous need requirements. Freshmen are eligible for loans up to $3,500, sophomores are eligible for up to $4,500, and juniors and seniors may receive loans up to $5,500 for each of the last two years of school. Loans are not expected to be paid back while the student is enrolled in college or for a six-month grace period afterward. The federal government pays the interest for the period that the student is in college, unlike unsubsidized Stafford loans.
The Student Loan Affordability Act of 2013 will maintain the current interest rates for the next two years as Congress works towards a long-term solution in the re-authorization of the Higher Education Act. The cost of this bill will be offset by closing tax loopholes. Schumer is intent on ensuring that the offsets for this bill did not come from other already strapped education programs. At a time when student loan debt is second only to mortgage debt for American families, Schumer said that we cannot ask families to add to this debt by allowing the interest rate on need-based student loans to double.
The College Cost Reduction and Access Act of 2007 set fixed interest rates on newly subsidized Stafford loans for undergraduate students to 3.4 percent over a set period of time; 6.0 percent in 2008-2009, 5.6 percent in 2009-2010, 4.5 percent in 2010-2011 and 3.4 percent in 2011-2012.
According to information from the National Student Loan Data System, the average student who receives four years of subsidized Stafford loans would end up paying up to $3,798 more over the course of a ten-year repayment term, if the interest rate is allowed to double.

There is relatively little known about the mating patterns of M brevicaudata in particular. It may be similar to that of other didelphids, which are polygynous. Competition between males may be extreme, and male opposums are often intollerant of one another. Because of the sexual dimorphism in size seen in this species, it is likely that they are similar to other members of their family. (Cockrum, 1962; Linares, 1998; Nowak, 1997)
There is not a great deal that is known about the reproduction of the M. brevicaudata. Although data for this species are scant, within one member of the genus the period of estrus was found to last 3 to 12 days, and the estrous cycle showed a bimodal distribution, being about 2 weeks long in one of captive females and about 1 month long in another group. The species usually reproduces during the dry season and they produce between 6 and 8 young. Reproduction of this species may be similar to that of other opossums which have an average gestation period of 12.5 days. (Cockrum, 1962; Linares, 1998)
Regardless of the actual length of gestation, we can assume that because these animals are marsupials, the gestation is short, and the young are born fairly undeveloped. Because the pouch of females is not well developed in this genus, it is likley that the young must cling to the nipple until they are large enough to ride on the back of their mother. (Nowak, 1997)
Young are dependent upon their mother until about 50 days after birth. Sexual maturity in the genus Monodelphis is reached between 4 and 5 months of age, and breeding may occur as late as 39 months of age in males and 28 months in females. (Nowak, 1997)
It is not known how frequently these animals reproduce, and it is not possible to generalize from other members of the genus. Some species in Monodelphis are apparently semelparous, with few individuals living past their first reproduction. Others may produce up to four litters per year. (Nowak, 1997)
There is no information about the specific parental investment of Monodelphis brevicaudata. It is likely that the female, who provides nourishment for the young gives most, if not all of the parental care. The pouch of these animals is reported to be poorly developed, and so the young must cling to a nipple until they are large enough to ride on the the mother's back. The role of the male in parental care of M. bevicaudata is not known. (Nowak, 1997)

In times of snowy weather, hit the powder with these calorie-busting winter sport workouts.
Snowed in? Rather than hibernating during the snowy months�or consigning yourself to snooze-worthy workouts on the dreadmill�take advantage of winter�s playground and embark into the great outdoors for one fun, total-body workout. �With winter sports, you�re tricking your body, activating your muscles in so many different ways,� says Robert Gillanders, PT, DPT, a doctor of physical therapy and spokesperson for the American Physical Therapy Association based in Washington, D.C. �The energy expenditure is off the charts.� Winter sport workouts (such as ice-skating, skiing and even snowshoeing) burn mega-calories, sculpt tighter tushes and tummies and get you in tip-top shape. Not to mention, being outside in the fresh aspen air is exhilarating and energizing, great for beating winter blues. �There has been a lot of research on the psychology and wellbeing of being outside,� Gillanders says. �People who exercise outdoors are happier, more satisfied, less depressed. Find out how many calories your winter sport workout just burned*, then go ahead and warm up with a mug of hot cocoa. Cross-country skiing: 722 calories/hour For an unparalleled experience in the great outdoors, there�s nothing quite like gliding across snowy terrain on a pair of cross-country skis. Not only is Nordic skiing a great way to explore winter woodlands, you�ll also get a challenging low-impact workout that scorches calories, tones the entire body and improves cardiovascular fitness. �Because the arms and legs are working at the same time, the energy expenditure is huge,� Gillanders says. Ice-skating: 319 calories/hour Glide, twirl and spin your way to better health on the ice rink. Ice-skating challenges your balance, works your glutes and thighs and gets your heart rate pumping. Downhill skiing: 554 calories/hour Hit the slopes for a fun, invigorating workout that�ll get blood flowing and tone your whole body. To maintain balance on the slippery slope, you�ll engage your core stability muscles while working your glutes, hamstrings, quads and calves. Says Gillanders: �With downhill skiing, you�re in a crouched position, so you�re working the legs in a functional way and activating the lateral glute muscles.� Snowboarding: 394 calories/hour Similar to skiing, snowboarding conditions the whole body and is fantastic for improving balance and agility. Snowshoeing: 577 calories/hour Want an unforgettable adventure in the great outdoors? Strap on a pair of snowshoes and get moving! Snowshoeing just happens to be one of the best endurance exercises out there. �Most of the time, you�re trudging through heavy, unpacked snow, which forces the glute muscles to activate,� Gillanders notes. Plus, unlike running and other forms of vigorous aerobic activity, it�s low-impact and easy on the joints. Sledding/tubing: 436 calories/hour It might be smooth-sailing down the slope, but you�ll work up a sweat trekking back up the hill�and tone your legs, butt and hips. Shoveling snow: 386 calories/hour You�re probably thinking, �Shoveling isn�t a winter sport�it�s a tedious chore!� Well, that may be true, but shoveling your driveway also doubles as your daily workout. As it turns out, shoveling all that heavy snow is a demanding cardiovascular exercise that revs up your heart rate, all while strengthening the upper body, core and back. *Calorie burn estimates based on a 140-pound female This article originally appeared as on Spry Living

A lesson on pH
So, what makes big leaf hydrangea turn blue, pink or a shade in between? The primary contributor is soil pH. Soil pH influences the pH within the plant cells.
The vacuoles within the bract cells, or otherwise known as the small true flowers that look like petals, are responsible for how light reflects to our eyes from the pigment anthocyanin. This pigment is a plant pigment that ranges in color usually between blue and pink and sometimes can appear cream colored or colorless when the bract cells are moving from a blue to a pink color.
The color also depends on some other factors less known but still amazingly responsible for the presence and its association with metal ions, such as aluminum.
Different anthocyanins have slightly different properties and color ranges. Different plant species, and even cultivars within a particular species, can have different properties and color range and concentrations. Basically, big leaf hydrangeas that are blue have a larger quantity or range when cellular pH is more alkaline while they are pinker when the cellular pH is more acidic or lower.
So, this doesn't seem quite right since we have to add products to lower the pH of the soil with elemental sulfur or aluminum sulfate to make the bract cells turn blue and the opposite, using lime or gypsum to raise the soil pH to turn the bracts pink in color.
This is because within the plant itself, the inside of the petal cells move in the opposite direction as the pH of the soil. So, in order to raise the pH within the cells of the bracts and make that hydrangea blue, we actually lower the pH of the soil.
Lowering soil pH (soil acidification): For most plants, soil acidification is unnecessary but lowering soil pH is frequently required to grow blueberries, azaleas and rhododendrons successfully. These plants require an acid soil with a pH between 4.5 and 5.2. If soil pH is above this range, it is usually desirable to lower soil pH to 4.5 prior to planting. Over time, pH will tend to increase, especially if the water supply used for irrigation is alkaline as it is in many parts of Minnesota and in most municipal water supplies.
Elemental sulfur, iron sulfate and aluminum sulfate are amendments that can be used to lower pH. We can also use peat moss, which may take longer depending on the situation of the plant and the garden.
Hydrangeas are just the beginning of the flower color puzzle. Plant geneticists have been working for many years discovering how to make different colors. Using petunias for research, most researchers can now show us that a combination of flavonoids and cell acidity or pH can be explained.
Three pigments, chlorophyll, flavonoids and cartenoids, which are mixed in different proportions with each other, produce flower color.
The biochemistry of flower color is truly amazing since just one tiny change in color will make a blue petunia turn red. This information is being used for those certain colors of plants, such as a true blue rose that seem so hard to achieve by simply crossbreeding plants. The main drawback is the cost that is involved with discovering the hidden color key.

Thanks for all the great suggestions!! So many options, so little time. After changing airport, airlines, lost luggages,... 12 hrs later, we arrived in Chicago late last night. In time for a Laphroig and a French Martini! Turns out, the Pizza Tour first meets at Pizzano's tomorrow. And it's literally right Round the corner from the hotel!!! Who knew!Tonight, I think we will hit Spacca. I can't believe all the eating options in the city. I think I've become a new fan of this city - lots of attractions, and lots of ethnicity - Polish, Chinese, Germans, Scottish, Irish, Middle Eastern, Italians... And it all means amazing food!!Two full days in Chicago warrants a return in the Spring for a longer stay.
sharlene,nice pictures of spacca naploi . are you going to tell us about you pizza tour?any more pictures?
