About the Author: Aaron C. Bruce served as a Summer Editorial Assistant to DipNote.
There we sat, side by side, around the conference table. We, the Public Affairs summer interns were nervous, but also a little lethargic, as most of us had been sitting in the same position throughout the preceding practice session and pep talk. But now the moment had arrived, and it was time for the young Public Affairs interns to give their presentations in front of Assistant Secretary of of State for Public Affairs Philip J. Crowley and other U.S. Department of State directors and officials.
As I told the group assembled that day, to say that my time in Public Affairs was rewarding is an understatement. It doesn't adequately capture the vast wealth of information and insight I have gained in foreign policy issues. Every day of the job presented new and unique challenges and opportunities; the learning curve was steep; the pace, brisk. On my first day, I was asked to read and highlight Secretary Clinton's speech on Internet freedom. A scant two weeks later, I found myself drafting story pitches to multiple State Department bureaus, monitoring trending headlines among major news outlets for content relevant to foreign policy issues, and wrangling breaking stories around our YouTube channel.
At times, I was a little daunted by the scope of the opportunities that were there. Even a conversation in the cafeteria could turn into a learning experience, as I mingled with people from throughout the Department. And you never know who you're going to meet in the hallways. One day, I turned a corner and was shocked to see Secretary Clinton approaching. I managed to get out a "good morning," and she replied. In a way, the incident sums up my time in Public Affairs: unusual, inspiring, and rewarding.
It's never too early to start making plans for next summer, and I encourage anyone who is interested in foreign affairs to consider applying for a State Department internship. You can find more information at careers.state.gov/students.

Good luck on your next adventure, and you gave me a good chuckle as you described your hallway encounter...
You run into someone you see on TV a lot in person and there's this natural tendancy to "pinch youself" for a quick reality check and then go into star-struck mode.
As an intern 20 years ago in a recording studio, I had to get over that real quick or I couldn't do my job, as I was working with some rather famous people.
To illustrate this "strangness" it was "Gene Hackman week" on TV (before all this digital age transpired) and every morning I'd been opening up the studio prepping for voiceovers for the "Come Fly the Friendly Skies." United Airlines commercial as second eng. that Gene was narrating in our iso-booth.
After about three days of this I was taking a break and Gene was complaining about the producer "over producing" him...a little grumpy....and being a non-working moment I told him, "You know Mr. Hackman, it's a little odd for me to see you here." He looked sharply at me and asked "Oh? Why's that?" I told him about it being "Gene Hackman week" on the tube, "and here you are in the flesh, it's such an odd experience." He laughed and said, "What was on last night?" I said "Marooned." And he just went off on a very funny rant about how they had him stuck in "that space capsule for take after take" and suddenly the pesky producer in LA wasn't an issue anymore. All the tension had been broken and we got the session finished without any hassles.
You gotta remember folks are simply human, and "good morning" works too.

Cramer's 'Mad Money' Recap: Pay Attention
NEW YORK ( TheStreet) -- If you do your homework, follow the news and put your money to work, you can make money in the markets, Jim Cramer told his "Mad Money" TV show viewers Wednesday as he outlined how he would've played a few key earnings releases back in his old hedge fund days.
Cramer said that had investors listened to the Walt Disney (DIS) earnings call, they would've heard about that company's fantastic quarter as well as CEO Bob Iger talk about how he's a big fan of Netflix (NFLX) as a content delivery partner. Anyone who bought into Netflix on that news would've made a quick bundle in today's trading, noted Cramer.
Cramer said that last night's "Mad Money" interview with the CEO of Allergan (AGN) was another opportunity. This traditionally conservative company offered guidance that was above Wall Street estimates, then confirmed in the interview it will have not one, but two, blockbuster drugs debut this year. Shares of Allergan shot up 2% as a result.
Then there's Chipotle Mexican Grill (CMG) , which fell after investors chose to focus on mediocre same-store sales. But Cramer said the metric that matters for Chipotle is whether the company can raise prices to combat rising food costs, something company execs said they plan on doing with ease. That news made savvy investors a quick $17 a share.
Cramer gave other examples, from 3M's (MMM) surprise dividend boost and buyback, to Cummins (CMI) following the lead of Caterpillar (CAT) and seeing its shares rise, even on disappointing results, on the hopes that the second half of 2013 will be booming.
Investors just need to do their homework and follow along closely, Cramer concluded. If they do they can make money practically each and every day.
Executive Decision
In the "Executive Decision" segment, Cramer once again sat down with Irvin Simon, chairman, president and CEO of Hain Celestial (HAIN) , a stock that's risen 211% since Cramer first got behind the company in April 2010.
Simon refuted some recent negative press by saying that healthy eating is not a fad, it's here to stay. While the analysts may not have been impressed with the company's three-cents-a-share earnings beat, he personally is happy with 10% growth in a quarter that included a hurricane that kept many stores closed for over a week. He said margins have been improving at Hain, even with food costs rising.
Of course there will be increased competition in the healthy, organic segment, he added, and that's something he welcomes as it will take more than just Hain to change the way the world eats. But increased competition is not stopping his company's Greek yogurt business from rising 39%, nor its organic baby food sales from growing 15%.

I needed some more dough trays so I reached out for my favorite tray maker Mike Madan of Madan Plastics. He makes the artisan trays that fit in a standard fridge...
Ah, so the guy at Vesta worked at A Mano? I might have gotten confused. Apologies to Christopher at Ah'Pizz if that's the case (although my points about that model still stand). I sat down at Vesta a few weeks into their opening, and had to walk out. The service was atrocious. The place did not have its sh*t together. I've never walked out of a restaurant in my life (and I've suffered through some really horrible meals), but this place was just wrong on every point, and I didn't see it getting any better.The pizza looked NY-style (Grimaldi's, et al), which isn't generally my liking, and I walked away confident that I wasn't missing much. Perhaps they've gotten the operation in order by now and I should revisit.
.... we already spoke on the phone about doing some mobile events and BIG festivals together with my mobile his name of course this fall. John
Tommy, there is no excuse for bad service, but I also think you should give vesta another try, especially considering your bad service happened during the opening weeks.

Comments:I got this box to store DD22's. When I received it, I was thinking WOW, this box is going to be perfect until I started to put some cranks in it. The compartments are a tad bit to small for these cranks, mostly because of the wide lip. You can put them in tail first and get the bill just right and get the lid closed, but it is a pain. Anything in the 14's would be just right. I do not recommend for the DD22's.

Comprehensive DescriptionRead full entry
General: Basswood family (Tiliaceae). Native, large deciduous trees, the bark gray and furrowed with flat ridges. Leaves deciduous, alternate, more or less unevenly heart-shaped or the base often nearly truncate, petiolate, the blades 5-12.5 cm wide, thick and slightly leathery, with shallowly toothed margins, glabrous on both sides or with some pubescence on the lower surface. Flowers yellowish-white, 10-14 mm broad, fragrant and nectar-bearing, in drooping, 6-20-flowered clusters hanging on a stalk that diverges from near the center of an oblong, leaflike and strongly veined bract 5-10 cm long. Fruits mostly globose, 8-10 mm broad, hard and dry, indehiscent. The common name is from "bastwood," referring to use of the inner bark, the "bast," for rope, baskets, etc.
Variation within the species:
North American basswoods have been separated into many species (usually three or four) or treated as several varieties within only a single species. "Given the inconstancy of most vegetative and reproductive characters [of North American basswood], the ecophenic, ecotypic, and seasonal variation in vestiture, and also the probability of introgression," trichome morphology provides the best evidence for recognizing the component taxa (see Hardin 1990).
a. Tilia americana var. americana
synonym: Tilia neglecta Spach
b. Tilia americana var. heterophylla (Vent.) Loud.
synonym: Tilia heterophylla Vent.
synonym: Tilia michauxii Nutt.
c. Tilia americana var. caroliniana (P. Mill.) Castigl.
synonym: Tilia caroliniana P. Mill.
synonym: Tilia floridana Small
The varieties of Tilia americana intergrade, but in their typical forms are separated as follows:
a. Leaves green beneath, sometimes glaucous, glabrous or sparsely hairy with simple trichomes, sometimes with a few stellate ones. var. americana
a. Leaves pale or whitish beneath from the close tomentum of dense, sessile-stellate trichomes, sometimes glabrate with age but remaining stellate-pubescent at least along the major veins. (b)
b. Young twigs tomentose or tomentose-hirsute; clusters of hairs on leaves more than 0.5 mm wide.
var. caroliniana
b. Young twigs glabrous; clusters of hairs on leaves less than 0.5 mm wide. var. heterophylla
Trees identified as Tilia neglecta may be variants of var. americana or they have been suggested to be introgressants between var. americana and var. heterophylla. Tilia floridana is often recognized as separate entity.
Distribution: Tilia americana is native to the Northern Deciduous and Great Lakes - St. Lawrence forest regions of North America. It also extends into grassland areas along river courses in Manitoba and the mid-western United States, where it forms a component of riverine gallery forests. In Canada, it is found from western New Brunswick into southern and central Québec and Ontario, extending as far west as north-western Ontario (along the U.S. border) and southern Manitoba. In the United States, the species occurs as far south as the mountainous regions of North Carolina, Tennessee, and northern Arkansas. The western limit for the species is south-central Manitoba and North Dakota, and along the Niobrara River in north-central Nebraska. For current distribution, please consult the Plant Profile page for this species on the PLANTS Web site.

Lake Street house ablaze
A big brookie and a moose sighting
Two weeks ago, I wrote a column, "In search of moose and fish at Massawepie," about an afternoon excursion to the Massawepie Scout Camps.
During that particular trip, I was unsuccessful in my endeavors. I didn't see the moose that had frequented the area and only caught a small trout. Since then, my luck changed, and I have had more fruitful trips.
The most recent occurred Monday, when I went on a hike up Loon Lake Mountain, where the state Department of Environmental Conservation had recently opened up a trail.
The Loon Lake Mountain area is known to have a high concentration of moose, at least in Adirondack terms, so I knew heading into the trip that the potential for seeing them existed. This even influenced my camera gear selection. Had there been no chance of seeing one of the large animals, I would have likely only brought my small point-and-shoot camera and left my DSLR camera with a zoom lens at home. However, with the possibility of seeing a moose in mind, I brought both cameras – even if the chances were very slim.
The hiking trip to the summit of Loon Lake Mountain is about three miles and starts from a trailhead located on county Route 26, which can be found off state Route 3 about 16 miles east of Saranac Lake.
The first part of the trip starts on the Kushaqua Tract Conservation Easement Lands and is mostly on two old logging roads that lead to a smaller foot trail in the Debar Wild Forest. The easement lands are great habitat for moose because they are logged, which provides the animals with lots of food. Moose are browsers and like to feed on leaves, twigs, and buds of hardwood and softwood trees and shrubs.
While walking on one of the logging roads a short ways into my trip with my friend Ed Burke, I spotted some movement ahead of us on the righthand side. Seeing this, I told Ed to be quiet and we both paused.
Slightly hidden in the bushes was a bull moose with a smallish rack. Surprisingly, the moose wasn't very visible until it started moving, which it did after hearing our voices.
Shortly after spotting us, the moose started to slowly amble away through a clearing, a pretty good spot to get a photo of it.
Of course, I had my DSLR in my backpack and didn't have time to get it out before the moose disappeared out of sight. I thought of grabbing the smaller camera out of my pocket but didn't react quickly enough and it was too far away for me to get a good photo with it anyway.
Luckily, Ed had his camera around his neck and quickly snapped a photo of the animal. It wasn't the best photo, since the moose was turned away from us, but it was sharp enough and captured the moment.
Ed, a photojournalist himself, actually carries a lightweight point-and-shoot with zoom capabilities around his neck for such circumstances while hiking.
Of course, he noted that my camera was doing no good in my pocket and that I need to carry it in a place I had better access to. I took note of that. I've got a system worked out for paddling, not for hiking though. That'll have to change.
Either way, it was great to see a moose on the trail. It really added to the hike. For me, it was the first time I've seen one while hiking. I've seen roughly 40 or 50 moose overall in my life in various states. About two-thirds of those were from the road and the other third were from the canoe in Maine, where the moose population is much larger than the one here.
As for the brook trout, that came from a canoe trip back at the Massawepie Scout Camps. Five days after fishing at Town Line Pond earlier this month, I returned with my father who was visiting from downstate.
My first trip to the pond had been kind of a scouting one, since I hadn't fished the waters before. Having familiarized myself with the pond a bit, I was more decisive with how to fish it the second time around.
My dad and I stayed in a spot I was fairly confident would have some fish. On the previous trip, I fished this spot for a short while but hadn't given it enough time to be successful. This time would be different.
From the start, we headed to this location and cast out lines in the water, fishing from a canoe. After a short while, my dad exclaimed that he had a hit, then another and finally another. Three hits one cast. Luckily, he hooked the fish on the third hit.
From the start, he could tell it was a pretty large fish as it put a bend in his pole. After a few minutes, he finally got it alongside the boat, where I netted it and got it into the boat.
As it turned out, it was a nice 17-inch male brook trout. I didn't wind up catching one on this two-hour fishing trip, but it didn't matter. I was more the guide on this trip and was happy to see my father catch one.
As we were leaving the pond that day, I told him to get his camera ready for the trip out in case we saw a moose on the road. I didn't really expect to see one on the drive, but then again, you never know when you might get lucky.

The Blackhawks acquired veteran center Michael Handzus from the San Jose Sharks in exchange for a fourth-round draft pick Monday.
The Hawks have confirmed the trade, which first was reported by TSN. To clear a roster spot, the Hawks demoted forward Brandon Bollig to the Rockford IceHogs of the AHL.
Handzus, 36, has notched two points (1 G, 1 A) in 28 games with the Sharks this season but has been a productive center since he entered the NHL in 1998. He has 461 points in 939 career games, which has included stints with St. Louis, Phoenix, Philadelphia, Los Angeles and San Jose.
Handzus also appeared in eight games with the Hawks during the 2006-07 season. He registered eight points and six penalty minutes during that stretch.
The Hawks will host the Nashville Predators at 7:30 p.m. today at the United Center. At 26-5-3, the Hawks have the best record in the Western Conference with 14 games remaining in the regular season.

Yakuza -- Chicago, IL -- November 23rd, 2011
Venue: Subterranean
Source: Me, some videos I took, some band members I talked to, etc.
So it has been two weeks since I attended this show, but this is the first time I've had a solid block of about an hour in order to cobble together this gig report, and since there was some interest on the part of a few folks on here, I decided I would go ahead and put this out there. In truth, this was a very good show. My opening comment may seem to indicate otherwise, but really all I'm trying to say is that it's hard for me to make posts that require more than thirty seconds of continuous thought these days, so I was gonna skip making this one but I knew I shouldn't (if that makes any sense ).
Anyway, this was the end-of-the-road tour stop for Chicago post-metal / sludge / stoner outfit The Atlas Moth, who had been out on a short tour with NYC's Batillus. The Swan King were the opening act (presumably in part due to being local and due to being labelmates with Batillus), and the headliner was Chicago's own Yakuza, in part because they are local but mostly because they rule harder than all three of the other bands put together.
First up was The Swan King, who are a stoner / sludge outfit that sound not unlike Red Fang (but slightly less awesome). They were good. I dug their stuff pretty well. I didn't find out until afterward that one of the founding members was in Asschapel - a band which I've loved for a long time and which everyone on here who loves grind / punk / crust / hardcore should check out pronto. I don't know any of The Swan King's set, but like I said they were good.
Next up was Batillus. I had talked to their merch guy before the show started, and he told me that if I liked Furnace (which I had told him that I did), then I was in for a treat. He said they were even heavier and louder live. He was mostly correct. What I've been digging about Furnace lately is that even though their songs can start out as slow as a funeral dirge (a hallmark of many doom outfits), they generally build to a crushingly heavy and utterly inescapable crescendo of rhythmic riffage (if you want to call it that) that tends to captivate me no end. It's hard to describe, I guess, but it's like post-metal meets ultra-slow doom / drone music, and nobody I know about seems to do this quite as effectively as Batillus does, especially on their latest release. The reason I said that the merch guy was "mostly correct" was that, although they were crushingly heavy and, yes - loud as FUCK - the live performance was a bit muddy in contrast to the cleaner sound they have on album, and somehow I prefer the latter in a big way. Still, Batillus hate-fucked my ears pretty hard, so I was pretty happy about that.
BATILLUS played:
...And the World Is As Night to Them
The Division (at least I'm pretty sure it was this song)
What Heart
Next up were The Atlas Moth, whom I had seen earlier this year on the Metalliance tour. Sadly, I thought they were better the first time, for two reasons - the first of which wasn't their fault and the second of which was. Their sound was all fucked up for this set - the incredibly beautiful detail of the songs from their new album (which they featured almost exclusively during their set, save the last song) was all but lost. The vocals were distorted and mixed pretty terribly, the guitars were way too loud, the drums were barely intelligible - it was just an all-around clusterfuck. Normally, I'd be willing to give them a pass on this aspect of their performance, because it may well have been the venue's fault, but the second aspect of their set that sucked pretty much overruled the shitty sound quality anyway. Unfortunately, it seemed as if several band members were either hammered (possibly because of having pre-gamed too much with a bunch of their friends, many of whom just took up space in the audience and acted kinda like tools the whole show), or just very tired from the tour. I don't know what it was, but they just failed to impress me with their energy that night. Still, I would recommend their new album to anyone who likes any of their previous material. It is probably their best work yet - it's just too bad that this show wasn't better proof of that.
THE ATLAS MOTH played:
Coffin Varnish
Perpetual Generations
An Ache for the Distance
25's and the Royal Blues
Holes in the Desert
...Leads to a Lifetime on Mercury
Next up was the reason I drove an hour from Northwest Hoosierfuckstate that night...Bruce Lamont and his band of merry fuckers that collectively go by the moniker "Yakuza". Their set started out featuring heavily from their latest album Of Seismic Consequence, which was fine by me because that's the album I own and it's the one that got me into the band in the first place. After ripping out a couple of ditties from their latest album, they took us back to the Transmutations album with "Meat Curtains", which reminded me that, in addition to being very good at psychedelic sludge, these fuckers can thrash and burn with the best of them. Holy shit. Then we went back a little further to the opening track of the Samsara album for a little number called "Cancer of Industry". Kee-rist. This one starts out kinda noodly and Tool-esque, like something Cobalt might do, and then proceeds to go mostly in a death metal direction. I won't give the blow-by-blow for the entire set here, but suffice to say that these cats took us all on a genre-bending roller coaster ride that only a band like Yakuza can deliver - and let's face it - there IS no other band quite like Yakuza. Even Bruce Lamont's other projects, such as the sublime all-star packed doom outfit called Bloodiest or his one-man traveling road show of psychedelic voice-and-sax-looping madness, are nothing like Yakuza. There's a reason why people use words like "unique" and "distinctive" to describe this band - and it's not just because the frontman is a screaming lunatic who also happens to have some awesome clean vocals as well as being an expert saxophone player. It's because nobody else sounds quite like them, and if you are familiar with this band, you'll know that that is a very good thing. If you're not familiar, check them out. I can't make any guarantees, other than if you check out a pretty wide variety of their material, you probably can't name another band on this planet who can do what they do.
YAKUZA blew us the fuck away with the following:
Thinning the Herd
Stones and Bones
Meat Curtains
Cancer Industry
Be That As It May
Testing the Waters
Just Say Know
Steal the Fire
Existence into Oblivion
Farewell to the Flesh
Back to the Mountain

Sounds like a blast. Wish I coulda been there.
I've lost track of just about everything.
It was. Maybe next time. I haven't met anybody from this board lately and I'm hoping to put a few more faces to screen names someday soon. Either Chi-town or that place where a couple of rivers crash into each other - it'll happen eventually.
I've lost track of just about everything.
Well sure, I hope. It just seems like more than half of the shows I go to these days aren't even in the fucking state of Ohio anymore.
I've lost track of just about everything.

In 1990, Manuel Ayau (1925-2010), the founder and late president of the Universidad Francisco Marroquín in Guatemala, asked Leonard and I to help him build the program of a regional [Mont Pelerin Society] meeting. Although the topic always led to major disagreements among classical liberals, we organized a panel on religion and liberty. We invited Father Robert Sirico to speak. That meeting led to conversations among us and eventually to the founding of the Acton Institute for the Study of Religion and Liberty. The co-founders, Sirico and Kris Mauren asked us to become founding trustees.

December 27, 2011 WIC Update
SUBJECT 1: Infant Formula on WIC Checks
SUBJECT 2: Parents of Infants Needed for NIH-funded Research Study
SUBJECT 3: Breastfeeding Diaper Diary Tear Pad
Infant Formula on WIC Checks: It is very important that WIC staff knows the importance of giving the correct information to WIC participants regarding the food prescription written on the WIC checks. The WIC check is very specific as to what kind of formula an infant or child is allowed and there can be no substitutes for this formula. Some formulas sound so much alike in their name however; they can be very different formulas. Missouri WIC does not issue the Enfamil Premium Newborn. If you have concerns or questions, please contact your District TA Nutritionist.
Parents of Infants Needed for NIH-funded Research Study: The Oregon Center for Applied Science Inc. (ORCAS) is a public health research organization dedicated to improving the lives of children and families. They create computer-based, multi-media programs about health and safety topics, and are funded by the National Institutes of Health (NIH). Currently, they are developing a CPR and first aid program for families of children ages newborn to 12 years old. They are currently testing the effectiveness of this program. In order to accomplish this, ORCAS plans to test two different groups through an online study. One group will view the program; and the other will read AHA-based materials about how to perform CPR and first aid skills. They will test each participant's knowledge and skills before and after instruction through written surveys.
Attached is a flyer about the ORCAS project. If someone is interested in participating in the program evaluation, they need to visit the ORCAS website and answer a few questions. If qualified, a research staff member will email them the consent form and have them get started with the program.
Thank you for your help in making this available to parents that use your facility. There are no sales or mailing lists involved. ORCAS compensates those that participate for their time. If selected, those participating in the ORCAS project could make up to $75.00 over a 30-day period. If you have concerns or questions, please contact your District TA Nutritionist. (ONE ATTACHMENT)
Breastfeeding Diaper Diary Tear Pad: A new breastfeeding handout has been developed titled, "How to Know Your Baby is Getting Enough" which provides information on infant tummy size and appropriate number of wet/dirty diapers for a breastfed baby. A log for tracking the number of wet and dirty diapers the baby has each day for the first week postpartum is on the back. This handout comes in a tear pad of 50 and can be ordered from the MO DHSS warehouse. The catalog number is #568 and you will need to order by pad (50 handouts each). Please see the attached sample.
Please feel free to share this handout with your area hospitals as needed. If you have any questions about this handout or any other breastfeeding literature, please contact Kathy Mertzlufft at 573-526-4792 or by email at email@example.com. (ONE ATTACHMENT)

This morning I participated in the inaugural Three Bridges Marathon in Crozet, VA. Crozet is just west of Charlottesville and is in the heart of vineyard country. The Marathon is hosted by the Ragged Mountain Running Store in C'ville.
I think there's something special about running a new event. You have no clue what the course is going to be like, and you get to be the first person to report on it (like me right now).
This marathon is the perfect, low key event, that should spark the interest of road and trail runners. It is technically a road race, but the roads are through the woods and provide beautiful views of the surrounding mountains. You also have some nice streams, which you will cross using three bridges(hence the marathon name) Three Bridges goes against the idea of the big city marathon. The starting field was limited to 100 runners, but only 30 people ran. This is a wonderful adjustment from the 20,000 at Marine Corps.
The details:
The course: Not very difficult, but don't expect a PR. This is a loop course consisting of four six mile loops, plus a hilly 2 mile spur at the beginning. This course may be hard on alot of runner's legs because it is a gradual uphill for 3 miles, and then downhill for 3 miles. There are very little perfectly flat sections. Some folks won't like the repetition of the loops, but atleast you get to see other runners.
Cost: A $30 donation to Meals on Wheels. Benefiting a great cause, and a low entry fee. This beats paying $90 to reserve your entry 6 months in advance for larger races.
Weather: It was 18 degrees when I woke up this morning. The race starts early, and the course is almost entirely shaded. It snowed 6" before the race. The temps were never above 30 degrees for runners. It's December, just expect it to be cold.
Aid Stations: gatorade and water. Honestly you don't need much else. They even had cookies at one location. Because of the loop course you get aid every 1.1-1.5 miles. I honestly got a little spoiled with aid so close together. The volunteers were amazing as well. A few of the folks would even run WITH you so you didn't have to slow down for water. I can't think of any other event where the volunteers were so active and cheerful. These guys/gals were awesome!
Schwag(prizes): If you're running this to win something, you're running it for the wrong reason. The marathon, suprisingly, has custom race bibs(not generic blank with numbers). The overall winner gets a prize, along with the top 5 finishers. Age group winners also get awards. This is very generous considering the low number of entrants. In addition to a modest finisher's certificate, I also got a nice pair of Under Amour technical socks for finishing 4th. Did I mention you also get a nice black bag, with goodies in it? For only $30, this event gives you alot.
Race Management: Low key, but very good. From the parking area it was a half mile to the starting line. Since it was 25 degrees, we were offered warm rides to the start. They even had vans driving runners from the finish back to the parking lot. An official race clock was positioned at the halfway point of the loop, and EVERY mile of the course was marked.
Final Thoughts: This is almost like a "fat ass" style marathon. In other words, it's not for runners who need alot of catering. If you want big shiny medals, a fast course so you can qualify for Boston, a cute t-shirt, thousands of fans to cheer you on, a pace group, and a buffet at each aid station....by all means, stay at home.
However, if you already have too many race shirts to count and you don't care about medals. If you want a scenic course with mountains as your backdrop. If you want an affordable event, friendly volunteers, and donate to a good cause.....by all means, run this event next year. I'll be keeping my calendar open.

Didn't notice any difference as a result of taking these capsules; however, since we are all different they may be of help to someone else. After I finish this bottle I will not re-order and will just drink the green tea instead.

Driftless trout trip
I had a wedding take me back to my home state of Iowa and figured I'd bring some camping and fishing gear along.
After the wedding I headed to the hill country in Northeast Iowa. I was worried that the drought would make the streams unfishable, but found some of the streams flowing cold and with good levels for this time of the year. The streams that were in good condition were loaded with trout. It seems the DNR has suspended stocking in streams in poor condition and the colder flowing streams are receiving extra trout.
The only surface activity was midges early and late. I spent most of my time fishing nymphs catching mostly stocker rainbows and brookies, but had a few wild browns mixed in each day. Not bad fishing for a late summer trip in drought conditions with lots of fishermen on the water.
After years fishing the freestone streams of NC, it was nice to get back to the spring creeks of the driftless. I forgot how nice it was to leave the wading boots behind and wet wade in a pair of Tevas without being in constant fear of falling. I also enjoyed the lack of rhodos. Many times I actually had the luxury of a backcast.
I can't wait for the next excuse to get back to the driftless.
I always wanted to fish the driftless, thanks for sharing your experience.

Packaging: Millwood acquires NPS
Millwood, a leader and innovator of unit load and packaging systems, has acquired National Packaging Specialists, a national distributor of engineered packaging films, tape, hoods, air bags and other industrial packaging products to the U.S. and Canada.

Millwood, an industry leader and innovator of unit load and packaging systems, has acquired National Packaging Specialists, a national distributor of engineered packaging films, tape, hoods, air bags and other industrial packaging products to the U.S. and Canada.
The acquisition was completed in early January. The new company will go to market as NPS/Liberty, a Millwood Inc. Company. "The NPS acquisition is a natural extension of our core business of industrial packaging and material handling systems and unit load design," said Rich Evick, senior vice president, Liberty Technologies, a Millwood Inc. Company.
NPS/Liberty will retain Bill Jackson and Mel Bunson, the founders of NPS, along with key members of the NPS sales and support team. Jackson will serve as director, film technology and training while Bunson will serve as director, national account development.
"Bill and Mel bring 32 years of experience in the film business to NPS/Liberty," said Kirk Ambrose, general manager of Liberty Technologies. "Their expertise will allow us to provide more solutions for our customers' packaging needs."
With offices in Vienna, Ohio; Atlanta; and Los Angeles, the purchase immediately expands Millwood's capabilities to serve the stretch and shrink film market on a national basis. "We already provide pallets and shrink wrap equipment to national accounts," Evick said. "We now have control over our supply of engineered packaging films on a national basis as well. It is a marriage of consumables, equipment and technical service."
It is the second major acquisition completed by Millwood in recent months: last September, the company purchased Graham Pallet, a major producer of lumber and wooden pallets in Tompkinsville, Kentucky.

I'm with you yalo.
Anything too much over that and it would be too much tea for me. Although, I have run into the problem of the leaves not having enough room inside the very tiny xiao pin. To me, I can always use fewer leaves in my ~85 ml pots and accomplish the same thing I could using fewer leaves in ~100-150 ml pots. The difference is the volume of water ... I don't need or want >100 mls for each infusion.

Follow effective action with quiet reflection. From the quiet reflection will come even more effective action.
—Peter F. Drucker
The end of the calendar year is a natural time to reflect on our lives and to establish goals and direction for the New Year. Most people associate their New Year's resolutions with diet, exercise, and weight loss. Personal goals are important and necessary, but setting professional goals is also beneficial. It improves you as a teacher, and it positively affects all of your students and families.
Photo taken by a student's father at our class holiday play.
Before making my professional goals for the New Year, I feel it is necessary to reflect on my year so far and on my students' progress. Here are just a few of my thoughts on how I have extended my teaching in 2010:
- I have created a Facebook page for my class that has evolved into a place where parents post and collaborate.
- I have extended my use of 1:1 laptops to include morning class goal work. This has allowed all students to get support and practice on some skills they need to learn in kindergarten.
- I have reorganized my class Web site on Blackboard to make it easier to lock and unlock practice games so each child really is getting personalized, individual learning opportunities.
- I started using a program called Wixie from Tech4Learning to individualize my students' work with "digital worksheets."
- I have started to create my first big stop motion movie with my students that incorporates almost all of my kindergarten science standards. Look for a future post on this amazing video experience and on knowing that kindergartners are only 5 — so they have a big need for play in their learning.
- I started a collaborative workshop time that the students have been helping to create. I already see tremendous results in their ability to work together, and to plan, evaluate, and present work.
- I have joined a district committee to assist with writing our district's technology plan.
These are just a few of the things that I have added or extended this school year. So far I am very pleased with the results, and I am excited to continue to extend them and to try new things in this calendar year. During your holiday festivities this winter break, don't forget to take some time to reflect on your teaching.
What are some new things that you tried out, and how are they going? We would love to hear about all the wonderful things you are trying in your classroom. Please comment below!
Jennifer, Thanks for your question. I started off creating my facebook as a page. It was not linked to my Facebook page at all. Parents had to like it from their end and then they could see my posts. After a few months one of my parents suggested swuitching it to a Facebook Group. A group is more secure as only people that are invited can view. It also allows for other members posts about our classroom to be alerted to everyone in the group. The only thing is this way my Facebook photo comes up when I post. It still does not give access of my profile to the members. Members facebook status updates also are not shared with the members of the group.
It really is a great communication tool. Many parents are on this tool daily already. I hope this helps. If you need more information you can look up the way I started it- Facebook page and the way we have changed it to- Facebook Group. Smiles, Megan
Can you share with me how to create a Facebook page for your parents? I know that almost all of my parents are Facebook users, but I worry that I won't have it locked down enough so that it is only for just them.
Perhaps there are easy directions out there that you could direct me to?
I'm looking forward to your stop-motion movie with your Ks. So cool!

Hi Bellas,
I'm back with my Shoedazzle Shoe of the Month. I skipped last month because I was saving my pennies for vacation but this time I couldn't resist. If you love hot pink and lots of glitter, you've got to check this one out!
Click here for more!
The hot pink sole, the gold glitter...these are total girls night out diva style statement shoes! They actually remind me of Barbie Shoes. I can't wait to pair this with fun mini-dresses or even dress up some jeans. They're great to bring into fall because they're closed toe...and metallics are totally in.
Hopefully the hot pink sole doesn't wear down too much but I don't see myself wearing these on a daily basis so they should be okay, lol.

Hyland's Bioplasma
Posted by 4631362807278180012 on Jan 11, 2016
After 6 weeks or so of use haven't noticed real difference. Had found before the Silicea cell salt by itself strengthened my nails. Yet after taking this complete cell salt combination 3 times daily, my nails are still splitting. Perhaps the Bioplasma doseage is weaker? Or maybe my country's customs irradiated the package (can't put anything past them). Have bought another two bottles & will keep taking tablets to give them a fair trial.

From September 17 through August 31, the Norton Museum of Art will present a new lobby installation: a mural titled Faux Real, by New York-based artist Mickalene Thomas. Thomas is best known for her elaborate figurative paintings that showcase ideas of beauty through compositions inspired by a variety of sources, including popular culture, the nineteenth-century Hudson River School and the collages of Romare Bearden, an artist recognized for his colorful depictions of African-American life.
Mickalene Thomas' site-specific mural, titled Faux Real, measures nearly 770 square feet in the Norton Museum of Art lobby.
Photo by Tom Brodigan.
The installation, made possible by Vanessa and Anthony Beyer, is Thomas' first mural-sized artwork created outside of New York. It is also only the third site-specific artwork for the Norton Museum lobby. Derived from her study of art history and classical genres of portraiture, landscape and still life, Thomas often utilizes rhinestones, acrylic and enamel in her work to introduce a vision of what it means to be a woman.
- For a complete look at the lobby installation, PBI Assistant Editor Mary Gibble spoke with Thomas for our Curtain Call blog. Get the scoop here.
Also on display beginning September 17 is the final work in the Norton's "Masterpiece of the Month" program, the Portrait of Yinli, Prince Guo.
The program, which began in May and previously featured Mary Cassatt's pastel Head of Sara in Bonnet Looking Left, and Dorothea Lange's classic Great Depression photograph Migrant Mother, spotlights major works by iconic artists selected by museum curators from private collections. This program allows for museum visitors to view rarely exhibited works as well as attend curator-led talks that dissect the installation, exploring the significance and context of the work.

On loan from the collection of Dora Wong, this portrait, done with ink and color on silk, is the earliest known portrait of Yinli and the first time it has been exhibited publically. The seventeenth son of the Kangxi Emperor, who reigned from 1661-1722, Yinli held the rank of Prince Guo of the First Rank of the Qing Dynasty and later appointed to Grand Council, a position he held till his death in 1738.
In conjunction with the "Masterpiece of the Month" and in celebration of the museum's reopening, admission to Art After Dark will be half-price September 19. The curator's conversation will center on Portrait of Yinli, Prince Guo, with Laurie Barnes, the McGraw curator of Chinese art, leading the tour. The complete Art After Dark schedule is as follows:

The Moon Festival has become an important national holiday in Chinese culture, similar in scope to Thanksgiving here in the States.It's a time for friends and family members to gather and give thanks for the harvest, pray for good fortune and dine on "moon cakes," a traditional sweet that represents familial unity and completeness.

Statement By The New York Power Authority Trustees: State Senate Confirmation Of Gil Quiniones As NYPA President And CEO
Michael Saltzman
(914) 390-8181
January 9, 2012
The New York State Senate's confirmation today of Gil C. Quiniones as president and chief executive officer of the New York Power Authority (NYPA) is good news for the people of our state and provides the Authority with an experienced and uniquely qualified leader as we support Governor Cuomo's vision for bolstering the state's electric power infrastructure, spurring economic development and enhancing energy efficiency and clean energy supplies.
The Senate action affirms both our election last November of Mr. Quiniones as NYPA's president and CEO and the Governor's earlier recommendation that he be named to that vital position. We are confident it will mark the beginning of a bright new era in NYPA's distinguished history of service to the state.
Mr. Quiniones, an electric utility veteran of two-and-half decades, has served as NYPA's acting president and CEO since September of last year and before that as its chief operating officer since June 2008. He has amply demonstrated his ability to lead the Power Authority at this critical time for maximizing the enormous value that NYPA brings to the state. This includes the responsible stewardship of more than $3 billion of generation and transmission assets and the underpinning of key businesses throughout the state from lower cost power allocations linked to private-sector capital investments and job commitments.
The NYPA Board of Trustees, which is charged with overseeing the Power Authority's executive management, looks forward to Mr. Quiniones' continued leadership as we undertake a number of vital initiatives in 2012. Among them are the development of a plan for the life extension and modernization of Authority transmission facilities; implementation of the Governor's ReCharge New York Power Program for providing businesses and other enterprises around the state with long-term certainty of lower cost power in return for protecting and creating jobs; and expanded investments in energy efficiency and clean energy initiatives.
The Power Authority is poised to meet these and other challenges with Mr. Quiniones at the helm as president and CEO.
Chairman Michael J. Townsend
Vice Chairman Jonathan F. Foster
Trustee D. Patrick Curley
Trustee John S. Dyson
Trustee R. Wayne LeChase
Trustee Mark O'Luck
Trustee Eugene L. Nicandri
See link below for announcement by Governor Cuomo of State Senate's confirmation of Mr. Quiniones as NYPA president and CEO, as well as other related links.
About NYPA:
■ The New York Power Authority uses no tax money or state credit. It finances its operations through the sale of bonds and revenues earned in large part through sales of electricity. ■ NYPA is a leader in promoting energy efficiency, new energy technologies and electric transportation initiatives. ■ It is the nation's largest state public power organization, with 17 generating facilities in various parts of New York State and more than 1,400 circuit-miles of transmission lines. ■ Approximately 80 percent of the electricity it produces is clean renewable hydropower. Its lower-cost power production and electricity purchases support hundreds of thousands of jobs throughout the state. ■For more information, www.nypa.gov.

How America's beloved breakfast food might be wreaking havoc on your skin.
Greasy bacon, greasy face? One of the nation�s most beloved (and trendiest) breakfast foods might be wreaking havoc on your skin, a new study suggests. According to some medical researchers, the high levels of sulfates, nitrates and sodium found in bacon causes inflammation that can damage skin over time. Although inflammation is usually one of the body�s best immune response, prolonged low-level inflammation can contribute to a host of skin problems including acne, rosacea and wrinkles. This isn�t good news for the average American, who reportedly eats more than 18 pounds of bacon each year, the Physicians Committee for Responsible Medicine says. It doesn't help, either, that bacon is nearly ubiquitous in today's food world�hidden in salads and pastas, crumbled on top of pizzas, even sprinkled on ice cream. More bad news: Other time-honored breakfast favorites, namely bread and milk, can also create breakouts by leading to insulin spikes. Say it ain't so! Luckily, certain antioxidant-packed foods offer a protective effect on your skin and can even reverse the anti-aging process. Check out this slideshow to see some of the best skin-saving eats for a flawless face. This article originally appeared as on Spry Living

Charger Congestion a Problem for Electric Cars
You read that right. By at least one measure, we do.
In some places in America today, there are too many electric cars competing for too few electric chargers in public locations, primarily in city and mall parking garages. This is causing some unhappiness and grief among electric car drivers, and it's getting worse every day.
Let's start by stepping back for a minute, reviewing the relevant numbers. By the end of 2012, there were over 70,000 electric cars on the road in the U.S. In 2013, estimates mostly range between 100,000 and 125,000 electric cars sold, so we would end 2013 with at least 170,000 electric cars on the road, cumulatively. This counts both pure electric cars and plug-in hybrids.
Most electric car owners charge their cars in at least one of two places: home and work. However, sometimes it is either necessary, desirable or simply possible to charge while you are parked in a parking garage such as in a city center or at a mall. It just makes sense.
Except I'm starting to see more congestion at chargers in these locations. Granted, this is not universal. Some electric car chargers are still used very little.
However, at a rising number of locations, especially in California, I am noticing an increasingly more typical scenario: A parking garage has two chargers, each with one 240 volt and one 110 volt outlet. Four electric cars are plugged in, two of whom are charging more than twice as fast as the other two. In the same parking garage are many other electric cars, parked without charging.
In other words, you may have 15 to 20 electric cars in the parking garage, but only two are able to charge at a speedy rate, and two others at a turtle-slow rate. A year from now, you could have 30-40 electric cars in that parking garage, waiting and unable to charge. There is already today an acute need for many more electric car chargers, as the current ones are utilized nearly 100% of the time.
An even smaller, but more recent, phenomenon are the Tesla(TSLA) "superchargers." These chargers are DC -- as opposed to AC -- and operate at 440 volt. These charge many times faster than AC at 240 volt. Tesla tends to talk about these chargers giving five miles of range per minute you are charging, so in 12 minutes of charging you would get 60 miles.
So far, the Tesla superchargers are located in a few places connecting San Francisco with Los Angeles and Las Vegas, as well as on the freeway from Washington, D.C., to Boston.
One obvious problem with the Tesla superchargers is that there are too few locations spread over too much space. Not too far to make it, but too far for an ideal safety net given the risk of a detour or delay. There are also not enough Tesla superchargers at each location.

Tippmann C-3
Posted 23 October 2008 - 11:49 PM
is there any thing we should know about this marker before buying one thank u
Posted 24 October 2008 - 12:12 AM
I think the C3 is more of the kind of thing I'd want if I were gonna play paintball remotely somewhere like someone's property or out camping.
Its not a bad marker or anything, just not the kind of thing I'd want to use against other players in a serious environment.
we play scenario. and he want to save money. so i think it going to good. any more info
Posted 24 October 2008 - 01:12 AM
we play scenario. and he want to save money. so i think it going to good. any more info
It's heavier than the average pump, and you will not be able to shoot it as fast as a normal autotriggered pump. The pump stroke is longer and heavier than a normal pump. It does have an electronic trigger. You will get an insane number of shots per tank. If you are just playing scenario every once in a while, don't count on ever having to replace your tank. They don't need a whole lot of cleaning/ attention, but can be annoying as hell if you manage to chop a ball. They are loud as hell.
I've got two, and I love 'em. If you have any more questions feel free to ask.
Posted 24 October 2008 - 09:00 AM
Most scenario games will include air fills. There are a ton of really great pump guns out there - I've shot the C3 a bit and it just doesn't really compare on the performance side.
If you are playing where there is no possibility of air fills - then maybe, but otherwise I think it's a gun that's cool, different and doesn't really get high marks in any other department.
I have a 45/45 for my sniper - I get more shots than I could use during a day of play. Having a gun that performs well ans is upgradable and customizable is well worth the time it takes to get one fill for a day of play.
Posted 24 October 2008 - 09:04 AM
Posted 24 October 2008 - 08:21 PM
I guess it depends on what you feel is a gimmick. With decent paint, I've gotten +-4 FPS, and it is fairly accurate. True, I will not be able to pump it as fast, and it is much heavier than the average pump. But it shoots just as well as any other gun, I just never need to refill my tank, ever.
In reality, yes, I could be using a better preforming gun if I just used air. However, when I play pump, it's rarely because I'm looking to get some kind of technological advantage, so performance does not matter very much to me as long as I can hit what I am aiming at.
Do I use it as a primary? No, I don't. Usually I use it once or twice a day, especially if I don't feel like getting my tanks refilled yet. Once in a while I'll have it out all day when I don't want to pay for all day air.

Topic: rSpec or Not to rSpec
I've been looking over BDD (behavior driven development) in the form of rSpec for a short while, while at the same time using zentest and autotest form TDD. Then, of course, there's Jamis' great post about integration testing that seems to fall someplace in the middle (or maybe it's to the side or above or below...).
TDD is what I'm relying on and autotest really rocks, but I find the BDD form of spec'ing behavior more intuitive and more fun to write. Has anyone used BDD for a project?

hmmm. not the best i've tried. i'll keep looking for the one i had last time. in the meantime, this'll do just fine.
Not as nice as the other reviews
Posted by Reviewer1605433 on Apr 29, 2010
I found it too weak. Other flavours will drown this out quickly. It is MUCH better to blend a whole vanilla bean into your smoothie.
I love vanilla..
Posted by Reviewer2652217 on May 07, 2010
Expected little bit stronger flavor, but have tried it only once, so it's too early to give a proper judging.
Very alcoholic
Posted by Reviewer1645212 on Jun 04, 2010
I had high hopes for this product after reading other people's reviews, and although it'll do and is at least sugar free, it has a strong alcohol taste which is overpowering. I don't think I'd buy it again.
OK taste

Just not as good as I had expected.

Brown short sleek hairstyle with highlights
Gone are the traditional-looking images for Emma Watson. In this look, she practically ventures into a modern female look with her bob cut hairstyle. The highlights near her forehead aids in exuding her femininity. She managed to have a one-sided direction of her finesse hair along with her sweeping side fringe and allowed it to perfectly stay in place for a more refined glossy hair presentation. .
