— Dil Pickles
Dylan Prescott "Dil" Pickles is the younger brother (by one year) of Tommy Pickles, younger son of Stu and Didi, and younger cousin of Angelica Pickles on the Nickelodeon shows Rugrats and All Grown Up!. Named after Didi's cousin, Dylan "Dil" Prescott, he was born in The Rugrats Movie (released November 20, 1998). His name is a pun on dill pickles. He is voiced by Tara Strong. He's 3-4 months old, and likes to call Angelica "yucky".
Dil Pickles is the youngest member of the Rugrats , and because he is just a infant, his big brother Tommy feels that it's his "sponsability" to teach him about things work in the world. Dil has a personalitly of a typical 3-month-old: all id. He wants everything NOW and will do whatever he can to get it. And once he does get it, he won't let go without a fight. Dil will wait unconsolably when frustrated, but he'll immediately stop crying when something else attracts his attention. While his tantrums are often annoying, he has the saving grace of all babies: he's irresistably cute. - Rugrats Description from Klasky Csupo
Dil Pickles has grown quite a bit from the little baby we first saw in The Rugrats Movie, He is now 9 years old, and enjoys wearing bizarre outfits, talking in code and getting any information he can about alien abuctions! His Principal, Mr. Pangborn, thinks Dil is a bit too strange, and almost went crazy himself trying to psychoanalyze what could be wrong with him. Could it possibly be caused by Phil and Lil accidentally dropping Dil on his head when he was a baby? Maybe... Or perhaps Dil is just one of those utterly unique individuals who doesn't try to be weird... he just is! - All Grown Up! Description from Klasky Csupo
Dil joined the Rugrats cast in the year of 1998. From the very beginning, Dil has had curly yet limited hair on his head, and has almost always worn yellow trap-door pajamas (though in The Rugrats Movie, Rugrats in Paris: The Movie & Rugrats Go Wild, his pajamas were purple). Because of his age, Dil can't say as many words as the other Rugrats. For the final 5 years of Rugrats' run, Dil had to learn how to be a Rugrat. He always wants everything at his age, and will always do whatever he can to get an object. He is as selfish as his cousin Angelica, and when he cries, he will not stop until something or someone will get his attention, but the difference being that he is a baby and will share things with Tommy and the rest of the babies.
Most of the episodes that Dil is prominent in usually involves the rest of the Rugrats trying to make Dil more like a "big baby", teach him something, or save him from something. When Didi was pregnant with Dil, she and Stu assumed that he was going to be a girl, and had planned on naming the baby "Trixie," after Drew and Stu's late mother (although her real name was actually "Beatrix," but most people called her "Trixie"), but when the baby turned out to be a boy, they named him after Didi's cousin, Dylan Prescott.
Dil always called Chuckie "Chubbie", and in the episode The Jungle, he refers to Phil and Lil "Philip" and "Lilip" respectively. He is a hair puller. Dil remains the same height until a 2003 episode titled Back To School when he, according to his father, Stu Pickles, "grew an inch".
In the episode A Dose of Dil, Tommy feels left out as the adults are giving Dil all the attention because he got a booster shot in his finger. Tommy and the gang decide to find ways to get the attention of the adults because they believe that if they do, they will get lollipops, as Angelica shows off that she has loads of lollipops. However, by the end of the episode, Tommy realizes that he doesn't need to cry for attention anymore because his little brother Dil will always be there to listen to him.
Dil has peach colored skin and a pair of white eyes with black pupils. He has a small amount of large curly hair atop his head. The character wears yellow and orange trap-door pajamas.
Dil has appeared in many episodes of Rugrats and its spin-off series, All Grown Up! since The Rugrats Movie. He made his debut in the movie, though he was mentioned previously in The Family Tree (in which Didi, his and Tommy's mother, realizes that she is pregnant), and made his final appearance in Golden Boy, an episode of All Grown Up!. It can be also noticed that a main character has been added in the first two Rugrats movies.
- Dil was the first of two Rugrats to debut in a Rugrats movie, the second being Kimi in Rugrats in Paris: The Movie.
- As seen in All Grown Up!, Dil has red hair, taken from Didi's side, and is known for his unusual interests, including inventing, taken from Stu's side.
- Dil is one in three of the main Rugrats characters to have the camera viewed from inside his mouth in All Grown Up!. The other two are his older cousin, Angelica, and his pet dog, Spike .
- In the All Grown Up! episode entitled Brothers Grimm, Dil is seen writing with his left hand, which would imply he is left handed, this would also imply Chuckie is not the only Rugrat who is left handed.
- Dil believes in aliens, and doesn't think they're scary.
- As said in the All Grown Up episode Truth or Consequences, Dil was accidentally dropped on his head by Phil and Lil when he was a baby. It is also shown he does know about this.
- In one All Grown Up! episode, it is said that Dil is 4 years younger than Tommy, this may be a continuity error, or the writers and directors forgot the Rugrats stayed the same age in the show.
- Though there was no episode, Dil was seen as a 1-2 year old, and 3-4 year old in the All Grown Up! episode Truth or Consequences.
- In Chuckie's Dream, in Rugrats in Paris: The Movie, Dil is seen carrying a flag and running/walking even though he never walks at all in the actual cartoon series.

i'm naturally a very aggressive and angry person which occassionally leads to other problems. a couple of years ago, while studying pre-Yellow Turban Rebellion era Taoism or Slavic mythology (i can't remember which) i had an ephiphany that i have to consciously remind myself of from time-to-time.

Manchester United manager David Moyes has accepted his improper conduct charge from the Football Association.
The United boss was warned about his future conduct and fined £8,000 for his post-match comments after watching his side lose 2-1 to Sunderland in the first leg of their League Cup semi-final against Sunderland on January 7.
A statement on the FA website read: "Manchester United manager David Moyes has been fined £8,000 and warned as to his future conduct following an Independent Regulatory Commission hearing today.
"Moyes had admitted an FA misconduct charge in that his post-match comments following his side's game at Sunderland on Tuesday 7 January 2014 constituted improper conduct in that they called into question the integrity of the match officials appointed to that fixture and/or appointed to Manchester United fixtures generally, and/or implied that such match officials are motivated by bias; and/or brought the game into disrepute, in contravention of FA Rule E3(1)."
Speaking immediately after the defeat at the Stadium of Light, Moyes claimed that his side were having to play against the officials as well as the opposition.
Moyes told Sky Sports: "We didn't do a lot wrong. I thought the referee was going to blow in our direction for the first goal.
"I couldn't believe he gave a free kick. It was a terrible decision.
"We are all just laughing at them at the minute. We get a player booked for doing the same. It looks as though we are having to play the [officials] as well as the opposition at the moment."
Moyes' Red Devils travel to Chelsea on Sunday.

text: Problem Gambling and Pathological Gambling: When Do You Cross the Line? Health Watch – June, 2012David Prescott, Ph.D. – EMMC Behavioral Medicine ProgramProblem Gambling and Pathological Gambling: It is estimated that about 4 out of 5 people gamble at some time in their life. Sometimes, what begins as a recreational pursuit becomes a significant life problem. About 2% of people who gamble have at least one gambling related behavior that causes noticeable problems in their lives. Less than 1% of people who gamble will eventually meet criteria for being diagnosed as a pathological gambler. The average annual financial losses from problem gambling, while varying enormously, average around $5,000 per person per year. What Are Some Signs of Pathological Gambling? People who are labeled as pathological gamblers cannot resist the impulse to gamble. They usually start gambling at a younger age than others, often around age 16 or 17. Pathological gambling is diagnosed when gambling occurs persistently over time, and the behavior interferes with other areas of life functioning such as family or work. Criteria for pathological gambling include: · Jeopardize or lose important relationships or career opportunities because of gambling. · Spending increasing amount of money on gambling to maintain excitement or thrill· Becoming restless or irritable if person stops gambling· After losing money, returns to gambling to get even ("chasing losses)· Repeated unsuccessful efforts to stop gambling. Pathological Gambling and Other Mental Health Problems: For those few people who develop pathological gambling, co-existing mental health problems are often a part of the picture. People with pathological gambling are more likely to also be diagnosed with bipolar disorder, panic disorder, or substance abuse disorder than the general population. It is not entirely clear what the causal relationship between pathological gambling and these others disorders might be. Types of Gambling Most Often Associated with Gambling Problems: Problem gambling is not strictly associated with people gambling at casinos, although casinos are one venue for problem gambling. The most frequent type of gambling that becomes a problem is lottery type, with bingo games and internet gambling also among the top areas where gambling problems occur. How Can I determine if a Gambling Problem Exists? At either end of the spectrum, ranging from occasional recreational gambling to extreme pathological gambling, it is usually easy to determine whether or not a problem exists. As with many psychiatric disorders, determining the exact line where a problem exists differs from person to person. One place to help you if you, or someone you know, may have a problem is a 20 question survey published by "Gambler's Anonymous." The survey can be found at the Gambler's Anonymous Web Site and includes questions such as: · Did you ever lose time from work or school because of gambling? · Were you reluctant to use 'gambling money' for normal expenditures? · Have you ever felt remorse about gambling? · After losing, have you ever felt that you must return to gambling as soon as possible to win back your losses? Treatment for Problem and Pathological Gambling: As with most mental health and psychiatric problems, the sooner a person begins to get help, the better the prognosis. Treatment options for problem and pathological gambling include:Counseling using cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) : Cognitive behavioral therapy examines the thinking and behavior patterns that contribute to problem gambling, and helps a person change these problematic patterns. For example, people with problem gambling often distort their thinking to minimize the chance that they will gamble again, or the fact that the gambling is causing problems. Self-help support groups, such as Gamblers Anonymous. Gamblers Anonymous is a 12-step program similar to Alcoholics Anonymous. Practices used to treat other types of addiction, such as substance abuse and alcohol dependence, can also be helpful in treating pathological gambling.Medications: A few studies have been done on medications for treating pathological gambling. Early results suggest that antidepressants and opioid antagonists (naltrexone) may help treat the symptoms of pathological gambling. However, it is not yet clear which people will respond to medications.For More Information: Gambler's Anonymous: http://www.gamblersanonymous.orgNational Institute of Health PubMed:

basement pressure changed by turning on HVAC fan
I have a one-zone HVAC system in my two story house. The furnace and air-conditioning unit are in the basement. When I turn on the fan at the thermostat control, with both the heating and air-conditioning off, I can feel a strong draft under the door at the top of basement stairway. The draft stops when the fan is off. I don't understand the negative pressure in the basement when the fan is running in a closed duct system. Does that mean the duct leak on the return side is much greater, so the basement air is sucked into the duct system?
You have a leak in your return system.
I had a similar situation and found it using a home made 'tell-tall' consisting of a long dowell with a 1" strip of facial tissue (long side) taped to the end. With that, run the strip over/around, near any seam, joint, panning, filter housing, etc. You will find it.
This should also be happening whenever the blower is running (heating, a/c)>
If you have a gas fired water heater (with vent) in the basement, the negative pressure could cause the exhaust to back draft (CO): Not Good.

Cisco ūmi Now Available in 720p HD Resolution & Special Offer
Last month we announced an expansion of the Cisco ūmi telepresence product line with the addition of Cisco ūmi with 720p HD resolution, priced at $399. I'm happy to announce that Cisco ūmi with 720p HD resolution is available starting today at the Cisco Home Store. It is uniquely designed for homes with lower broadband speed (requires 1.5 Mbps upload/download) making it even easier for ūmi customers to expand their calling circles. Cisco ūmi offers advanced features such as video recording and sharing on Facebook or YouTube directly from the TV that other products don't have.
The new Cisco ūmi with 720p HD resolution will also be available soon at Amazon.com. We've strategically expanded our distribution through Amazon.com as well as through partnerships with leading service providers as we continue to make Cisco ūmi accessible to more people across the United States, and then globally.
Since Mother's Day is less than a week away, we'd also like to share a special offer with you: Now through May 20th, 2011, you can buy one ūmi and get one free. That's a savings of up to $499, and a great way to make mom very happy on her special day. Visit Cisco.com/umi for details on the ūmi "buy one get one free" special offer.

|Study Evaluating The Combination Of Neratinib And Capecitabine In Solid Tumors And Breast Cancer
|Official Title ICMJE
|A Phase 1/2, Open-Label Study Of Neratinib (HKI-272) In Combination With Capecitabine In Subjects With Solid Tumors And ErbB-2 Positive Metastatic Or Locally Advanced Breast Cancer
|Brief Summary
This is a world wide phase 1/2, open-label, study of neratinib in combination with capecitabine, conducted in 2 parts.
In Part 1, 3 to 9 subjects with solid tumors will be enrolled in each dose group of the combination of neratinib and capecitabine. Each subject will participate in only 1 dose group.
Additional subjects may be included at any dose level to further assess the safety and tolerability at that dose level.
In Part 2, up to 60 subjects with erbB-2 positive metastatic breast cancer will receive treatment with the combination of neratinib and capecitabine at the maximum tolerated dose level, as determined in Part 1. In addition 20 subjects with prior lapatinib exposure will be enrolled in Part 2.
Depending on the safety and activity profile observed during the dose escalation phase, the dose selected for Part 2 may be adjusted, if appropriate. In case one test article of the combination is discontinued due to intolerance the other test article can be administered alone.
The primary objectives of Part 1 are to assess the safety and tolerability, and to define the Maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of neratinib in combination with capecitabine in subjects with advanced solid tumors.
The primary objective of Part 2 of this study is to confirm the MTD determined in Part 1.
The secondary objective of Part 1 is to collect information on preliminary anti-tumor activity of the combination of neratinib and capecitabine.
Secondary objectives for Part 2 are to collect pharmacokinetic information and to obtain additional efficacy data, such as Objective Response Rate, for subjects with erbB-2 positive breast cancer treated at the MTD of neratinib + capecitabine.

hey guys, we just finished the first day and I'm pooped, much more physically demanding than LFI I, I'll make a report when I can post some pics.
Howdy Mr. Threefeathers. :wave:
I look forward to reading your report. Take care, stay safe and have fun.
So what shotgun and handgun did you end up taking?
I took the Mossbeg 930 SPX semi auto, I love it.
The Glock G-19 I'm starting to like it.
I'm really tired today, 2 hours of combatives on weapon retention to end a 9 hour day.
Biker I'm going to e-mail you some pics and you can post if you want.
It's 2100 and I just got back from hand gun etention tng. Today we did transition from shotgun to handgun, over, and over, and over. Today in the classroom was a detailed study of courtroom strategy that is much more detailed than LFI I which was darn detailed by itself.
BTW: I need help posting pictures, as I'm too old to learn how. Actually my old dial up modem and ancient computer doesn't handle uploading pictures well. If someone with a faster modem and more memory could post them it would be better, as I keep getting booted off when I try to upload PICS.
I can look at them once they download, but uploading is a whole different story. Sorry Mr. Threefeathers, but I'm not going to be much help with this one.
I'd like to take L.F.I. 2 in the future, but it will be a couple of years or so probably. Take care, stay safe and have fun. We will have to get together when you get back home.
My shotgun has become part of me. I don't know how many handgun retention dris you know in your job bui I'll go over three or four with you.
I fired the New Hampshire police course today which included 3 25 meter stages and got a 556 out of 600.
There were several 600/600 scores.
Sounds like you had a good time and picked up some more skills, can't ask for much more than that.
Stay sharp
Thanks's Brownie, as next year settles I really want to attend one of your courses.
Yes, 24 years in the army as an 11B and 19D I fired a shotgun probably 4 times for 'familuraztion' :embarassed:
I just stayed away from them. Now I'm probably going to add a simple shorgun reloader to my 3 cartridge presses.
I'm full of Tylenol so i can write a bit. Mas demands perfection of a few disarm and retention techniques so contact is necessary. Here is one of the asst Instructors, Brian, going over the drill with one of the students.
I'm jealous, Threefeathers. I was hoping Mass was going to bring LFI-II to Harrisburg this year. Can't wait to see more pics and a full report.
here is Mas teaching the use of vertical cover and proper gun placement using both one and two hand drills. This was a 25 meters and done quickly after practice. Everything at LFI II is geared for immediate use in real situations.
Marty Hays teaching proper shotgun technique using MY 930 SPX. I LOVE it. :danceban:
One more of Mas, this time teaching strong side vertical cover behind a barricade. Look where his right toe is as he begins to place himself.

Atsushi Murakami, the head of DeNA's IT Strategy Department, described the company's introduction of NetSuite: "In order to support DeNA's growth, it was imperative for us to enable employees to share their internal data in a quick and efficient way. Our interoffice infrastructure for accounting, human resources and other administrative processes had to be flexible enough for the rapidly changing global business environment. It was also necessary for us to streamline our day-to-day operations as much as possible."

The tool's ability to adapt itself to the constantly changing industry landscape was essential and DeNA was seeking to use it in multiple offices across borders. DeNA selected NetSuite OneWorld not only to run financial operations, but also to run HR workflows ranging from training, payroll, time-off, and expense reports to performance reviews, which significantly simplified and streamlined DeNA's business processes.

Citation: Hou, C.T. 2006. Hydroxylation and epoxidation of fatty acids by Bacillus megaterium ALA2. In: Proceedings of 35th UJNR Food and Agriculture Panel Meeting, October 21-28, 2006, Rohnert Park, California. p. BT1-5. Interpretive Summary:
Technical Abstract: Bacillus megaterium ALA2 produces many new oxygenated fatty acids from linoleic acid. Strain ALA2 hydroxylated palmitic acid to omega-1, omega-2, and omega-3 hydroxy palmitate. Now we found that strain ALA2 also epoxidized linoleic acid to 12,13-epoxy-9(Z)-octadecenoic acid and 9,10-epoxy-12(Z)-octadecenoic acid. The epoxidation activity of strain ALA2 was compared with the well-studied catalytically self-sufficient P450 monooxygenase of B. megaterium ATCC 14581 (NRRL B-3712), and B. subtilis strain 168 (NRRL B-4219) and found that their oxidation products were identical indicating that their monooxygenase systems (both hydroxylation and epoxidation) are similar. The ratio of the epoxy fatty acids produced by these three strains, strain ALA2: NRRL B-3712: NRRL B-4219 were: for 12,13-epoxy-9(Z)-octadecenoic acid 5.56: 0.66: 0.18 and for 9,10-epoxy-12(Z)-octadecenoic acid 2.43: 0.41: 0.57 per 50 mL medium per 48 hours, respectively.

Curious, how old was your GSD when he/she started showing protectiveness/alertness?
Chief is now 5 months old, his land shark phase is finally coming to a close whoo hoo! Lately though I've been noticing he's starting to become protective and dry alert which surprised me because I usually thought this comes around a year or age or older. We live in a neighborhood but have a huge empty field behind our house that several kids play in after school. The other day Chief and my husband were in our yard and the kids all of the sudden started screaming and running towards our house. My husband said Cheifs fur stood up, he did this real slow alert trot to the edge of our yard while growling low and then barked several times deep but not too loud. Then a few days ago these two random teenagers dressed in camo came sprinting out of the woods full speed into the field and Chief went crazy barking and growling low. He's also now going to the door and dining room window barking and low growling when he hears nosies. Just wondering when your dog showed this behavior?
I usually come in the back door when I come home via the gate. My wife had just walked out with Dagr (10 weeks), he buff'd me. I was shocked. He will alert to some sounds if he hasn't heard them before but usually doesn't bark.
Depends on the dog.
My female is three and JUST now starting to bark at people at the door.....
It's been a really long time, my GSD is going to be 5 years old in 2 months. :wild:
I can't recall when he started barking at noises but he was 16 months old when he showed real protectiveness and made these 2 crackheads back away from us. He really stepped up and became a guard dog when he was 4 years old. When he is out in the yard he makes sure everyone knows that he is there and that it is his yard. He puts on a really good show and people that don't know him are scared of him but he is actually a total sweetheart and great with people. :wub:
My Dalmatian puppy started barking around 5 months of age but when he is out in the yard he would kind of stay back and bark, now he stands next to Sinister and barks/raises his hair and acts like he would do something but again, he is extremely sweet and great with people. :laugh:
Sorry, I had a lot of typos in that! Typing fast on my phone plus auto correct! Chief is training now and working towards his Canine Good Citizen test
so he can be a therapy dog . But now I'm worried that he may be TOO alert for that. I don't want the slightest things freaking him out. Though in class so far he hasn't been bothered by the slamming of a clip board on the ground, the noise of the trash bag opening etc when he was tested.
Ours started about 5 months but Millie would bark and back up, miles would bark and move toward whatever he was barking at. At 8 months old Millie started barking and moving toward what she was barking at! There was a young 20's something kid come into our back fence when they had turned 8 months old...that is the first time we saw Millie move forward when barking. The kid ran off, and his hoodie was covering his face, I am pretty sure it was a community kid trying to see if a back door was unlocked....most people leave doors unlocked in our community making it an easy target...I am not sure why everyone is so trusting and why they leave themselves so open to be a victim but they do....quite community with unlocked doors....ANYWAY.....Millie did not back down and I was so impressed because we felt she would bark but because she always backed up, never expected her to stand her ground and really did not expect her to chase someone. We definitely underestimated her. Needless to say....our house gets lots of space....kids and older teens do not walk in our front lawn any longer and they walk across the street when they do have to pass our home :-)))

my dog never showed any behaviour like your dog and if he did
i wouldn't allow it because i didn't want a protective dog. now
if your dog is truly being protective at such a young age start
training and socializing. you want to be in control of his
protective behaviour. maybe you should find a trainer.
From about the first week we had him...once he sort of settled in, he started with the alertness. He was 16 weeks when we got him.
He's not fierce or anything, just very, very alert.

"Hi Officer!": Talking about ecigs with the police
"Hammond, give me that! What's this you're using now?!" Joe screamed as he reached for my e-cig. I let him take it and explained to him that it was an e-cig. He wasn't buying it at all. His first thought was "paraphernalia" and was about to take me with him. As a side note, it was a Dial-A-Volt with a tank, so "e-cigarette" isn't the first thing that comes to mind. I pulled out my Vapor4Life business card and continued to explain who we are and what we do, and then I told him to try it. Now I can tell you, he gave me this look of such disgust, but he tried it. That look of disgust quickly turned into intrigue, and all he said was "WOW!" I knew I had him.
Joe pulled me aside and, shockingly, opened up to me. He was telling me about how he's been trying to break his cigarette habit and how his wife's been "nagging" him (his words, not mine) about smoking. I gave him my story, about how Vapor4Life saved my life, and I told him to come to our Smokeless Lounge and our staff would definitely help him out.
A week later, Joe stopped by the Lounge and is now an avid vaper! I still find it strange that when I see him he'll flash his Zeus, but I'm glad to have another vaper in the vaping community.
Just keep in mind vapers, keep some cards or extra batts with you when you go out. You never know whose life you might change!

DEFIANCE, Ohio – The Defiance College softball team ended its season on a high note Wednesday, May 1, as the Jackets swept the Heidelberg Student Princes by scores of 10-0 and 3-2 in non-conference action. The highlight of the afternoon was freshman Alli Rowland (Westerville, OH / Westerville North) pitching a no-hitter in the first tilt for DC's first since 2009.
What really calmed the nerves of the Yellow Jacket freshman pitcher was a 10-run lead after the first frame. Game one got off to a wild start, as five Heidelberg errors in the bottom of the inning fueled the DC offensive outburst.
Senior Katie Miller (Archbold, OH / HS) got the scoring rolling with a two-run single that plated Macy Ferrall (St. Mary's, OH / Memorial) and Maggie Neanen (Eaton, OH / HS). After an error brought in another score, Kailea Holbrook (Defiance, OH / HS) poked an RBI single that made it 4-0. Three more runs then crossed the plate on a pair of errors and a single from Tori Plummer (Perrysburg, OH / HS).
By this point, the Purple and Gold had batted around and Ferrall, Neanen and Miller went double, single, double to each knock in a score and make it 10-0. All 10 scores for DC were before the Student Princes recorded an out in the big inning. Finally, Heidelberg settled in and set down the next three batters in order to get out of the dreadful first frame.
From then on, DC would record the only hit over the next four innings of the game, as the pitchers dominated. The 10-run lead was a nice cushion for Rowland, but one score was all she really needed as the first-year pitcher hurled her best game of the season. She cruised through the Heidelberg lineup with little resistance, fanning four batters in the five-inning no-hitter. There were only two runners that reached base in her outing, coming from an error in the first inning and a walk in the fifth. Rowland's no-hit shutout marked her 11th complete game of the season, lowered her ERA to 2.22, and improved her record to 8-8 to close out her 2013 campaign.
Rowland's no-hitter was the first for the Yellow Jackets since Justine Johnston tossed a gem in a 2-0 victory over Anderson back on March 28, 2009. Her season-ending 2.22 ERA was also the lowest for a DC hurler since 2008.
The second contest of the afternoon was much closer and turned into a thrilling season finale. After both squads went scoreless in the first two frames, the Student Princes notched their first runs on the day. Heidelberg used a double and single to knock in a pair and grab a 2-0 in the top of the third. With the bases loaded and two outs, freshman Katie Patchin (West Farmington, OH / HS) came on in relief and got the Jackets out of the jam on an inning-ending strikeout.
Defiance then responded in the bottom of the inning with some small ball. A leadoff walk to Ferrall got action started. Neanen then came up to the plate and laid down a bunt in the attempt to sacrifice the runner over, but beat out the throw for an infield single. Each of the runners then advanced a base on a wild pitch and Miller came through with a sac fly to cut the deficit to 2-1 through three innings.
After Patchin breezed through the Student Princes in their next at bats, DC used a little luck from some visitor fielding miscues to score a pair in the bottom of the fourth and take the lead. Ferrall was the batter that came through in the clutch with a single to left field, plating a pair of Jackets to go up 3-2.
Both squads went scoreless over the next two frames that sent Defiance into the top of the seventh clinging on to a slim 3-2 lead. Patchin had dominated up so far, allowing no hits with one walk in 2.1 innings. However, things got dicey in the final inning. The Student Princes used a pair of singles and a fly out to place runners on second and third with two outs. With the pressure on the young pitcher, Patchin gained her composure and got the final batter to line out to first and earn the season finale win for Defiance.
Patchin recorded the victory in the game and improved her season record to 5-4. She totaled 4.1 shutout innings, allowing two hits and a walk with a pair of strikeouts. At the plate, DC's leaders were Ferrall, who went 1-for-3 with two runs batted in, and Neanen who added a 2-for-4 performance.
With the sweep, the Purple and Gold softball team concluded the 2013 season with a 16-22 mark, while finishing 6-10 in the Heartland Collegiate Athletic Conference. The sweep was a great way to end the season for the Yellow Jacket seniors, along with building momentum for the DC softball program moving into next year.

Update on Calvert County Respiratory Illness Investigation
FROM: David L. Rogers, MD MPH
Health Officer
DATE: March 7, 2012, 8:45 am
Initial testing of two of four family members in Lusby, three of whom have died, suggests that that the serious lung infection suffered by all four was a complication of seasonal flu. A fourth family member remains hospitalized at Washington Hospital Center and is improving.
Samples have been sent to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention in Atlanta for further testing.
These cases of serious lung infection were isolated to a single family and there are currently no other affected individuals. Local healthcare providers are not reporting any significant increase in patients with flu-like symptoms.
The illnesses in these family members began with an 81-year-old Lusby woman who developed respiratory symptoms at her home beginning on or about February 23, 2012. She was cared for at home by three of her children, a son and two daughters. The caregivers developed similar respiratory symptoms on or about February 28, 2012. The mother died at home on March 1, 2012. Following her death the three children were hospitalized. Subsequently the 58-year-old son and a 56-year-old daughter died.
Calvert County Health Department
Black Blade: I thought people generally didn't die from "seasonal flu". Kind of like getting a cold maybe but not wipe out a family. WTF??? When people enter a home wearing HAZMAT suits I think that would get some attention form neighbors. Hmmm...

Sutherland put on an offensive display on Tuesday in a 74-28 win over Maxwell in the first round of the South Platte Valley Association girls' basketball tournament at North Platte Community College.
Joli Hopping and Jalyne Schuster scored the first two baskets of the game for the Lady Sailors (11-3). Then Kaley Stokey continued the run by draining a mid-range jump shot. Sam Kennedy then made a three-point play before Stokey ended the run with a layup that made it 11-0 a little under two minutes into the game.
A basket by Anna Crane put Maxwell (3-10) on the board and then Josie Cox made a free throw for the Wildcats to put them closer.
Maxwell performed valiantly in the first quarter but still found itself down 22-10 going into the second.
That was when Sutherland blew it open. The Sailors began the quarter with a 13-0 run. Everything they shot in the second seemingly went in and by the time it was over, they had a 48-16 lead at halftime to show for it.
"We did a good job of just running our plays," Gunderson said. "We executed well. We worked on playing against the zone and we did a good job with it tonight."
Lady Wildcat coach Mitch Armour said that his team was overmatched against Sutherland.
"We had a poor shooting night," said Armour. "We just couldn't get much offense going. Those girls from Sutherland just shot lights out. They made a lot of shots."

What more could I be doing to boost BF baby intake? Sorry - very long!(28 Posts)
A bit of background: DD is 8 weeks old. We had a tricky start to BF ? had problems latching to start with, and she was also very sleepy. Plus I was discharged the morning after she was born then had no home visit for 4 days which didn't help!
Day 3, worried she was ill we took her to A&E where they told us her blood sugar was low and made me give her formula top ups for 1 night ? much to my sleep-deprived, hormone fuelled distress. Anyway, got help from a Lactation Consultant and things improved though for several weeks had to wake her for feeds (stripping her off etc ? was hard work!). Was also topping up with EBM when I felt BF hadn?t gone well but was able to gradually phase this out, and now I?m not expressing any more. She gradually woke up and I mostly try and let her let me know when she?s hungry.
But I still don?t feel I trust the feeding process very much! She doesn?t seem as hungry or demanding as any of the other babies I know, and her feeds tend to be very short. I think they are fairly efficient but of course it?s impossible to know how much she?s getting. This wouldn?t worry me too much but her weight gain, while OK, isn?t great ? so the combination of things means I feel I should somehow be trying to get more into her, the question is, how?!
I?ve read loads and know the theory ? offer often, offer at least both sides, etc etc. But what about when the ?offer? is refused? When she doesn?t want any more, the just purses her little lips and there?s not much I can do! I lack confidence in reading her cues, and sometimes feel like we?d be better on a schedule ? when circumstances mean she goes longer between feeds (if I?m out and about for example) I sometimes feel like she feeds better ? but this seems to go against all the advice! Also she has periods of being v fussy on the breast, pulling off and seeming discontented. I?m reluctant to go back to expressing and bottle feeding though I know this would mean I?d know how much she was having. Also the last time I tried to give her a bottle she refused so that option might be off the table. I could be more determined about trying to keep offering, stripping her off etc, but not sure how effective this would be.
I have been to quite a few local BF cafes where the response tends to be, your latch is fine, she?s drinking fine, it all seems fine ? but I can?t shake the feeling it?s not, and really want to preempt having health professionals jump in like they did in week 1 - it really kicked my confidence and I felt I lost all control.
Anyway, I thought I would post a sample days feeding on here and see what people think ? does it sound like she?s getting enough? Sometimes the timings are pretty vague especially for the middle of the night, but you get the idea.
(A note on her weight: she was born on 50th, by week 2 was on 25th and by week 7 had dropped to 9th. At 8 week check she seemed to be holding the 9th, but I?m worried she?s going to drop down again. Lately she seems to be gaining roughly 140g a week, give or take. To my eyes she looks lovely, not fat but well covered with folds in all the right places! She has good periods of being alert and smiley, and seems generally well)
0303 L 7mins, R 2 mins
0535 R 6 mins
0700 L about 5 mins, R a little bit
0830 Little bit each side
0930 3xR, all short attempts, kept coming off coughing
1100 L 5 mins, R 5 mins
1200 R about 6 mins
1530 L about 5-10 mins
1640 R about 5 mins
1744 R ? not v effective
1940 L ? about 15 mins not much active sucking, R a bit more
2040 R about 5 mins, bit frantic
2120 Both sides comfort sucking ? latched on in bath with me but not much drinking
2230 fed to sleep, not much drinking
2300 L 7 mins off and on
Over the course of this period had 3x big yellow squitty poos, one slightly greener one,3 wet nappies (I'm assuming there was also pee in the pooey ones ? also a couple of times she weed while I changed her)
0100 Can?t remember which side but think was about 5 mins? Forgot to write down
0350 L 4-5 mins, R about 4 mins
0720 R about 7 mins, L about 2 mins but nor really interested
0920 tiny bit L but fell asleep again
1010 L about 2 mins, R about 7 mins ? good sucking but had to help with compressions
1225 L 7 mins quite good sucking, R about 5 mins
So far today have only had wet nappies. This is really unusual but have had one day with a very long gap between poos before and eventually one came. Am currently trying not to go into a panic that there's been no poo so far....
Sorry for the detail but wanted to give a snapshot of what feeding is like.
Thanks in advance for your thoughts!
Glad I found this thread, I'm in a similar position. My DD started on the 75th centile at birth, at 8lb 6. At 12 weeks she is now on the 20th centile, having just gone over the 11lb mark. I went to a breast feeding club for the first time yesterday, and found it a massive help. It might be worth considering looking for one in your area if you haven't already. Got help with my latch..... Think I must have nipples made of old shoe leather, cos I thought no pain meant good latch, but I needed to get more boob into her mouth, which I was shown how to do. I was also advised to feed for longer on one side before switching her over. Apparently when she does the little nibbly sucks towards the end of the feed, that's when she's getting the fattiest milk. Having to blow on her face and tickle her feet to stop her nodding off though. So the lactation expert said to try that, then she'll weigh her next week and see if it's helped. I read on the iterpipes somewhere that drinking nettle tea can help your milk supply too. Giving it a go, as it won't hurt, and I quite like nettle tea anyway. Fingers crossed for a better weight gain next week....
have you had her checked for tongue tie? including the harder to spot posterior tongue tie?
I ask because I think a lot of my DD's feeding problems (which sound much like yours, ie short feeds, keeps coming off etc) are caused by posterior tongue tie. she gets quite a lot during her short feeds, because she is sucking so hard to compensate for her crappy latch, so weight gain isn't a problem - but she can't keep it up for long so has to have lots of short feeds. and it causes sore nipples in me (not always, but any time she has a bit of a growth spurt).
ah yes, I used to stroke dd's wrist to mske sure she was still awake and sucking

Drought Years Challenge Water Agreements between Cities and Ag Land
By Andrea Chalfin News Dir. On April 8, 2013 · 2 Comments · In Agriculture, Agriculture/Ranching, Harvest Public Media, KRCC News, Luke Runyon, Water
Farmers throughout the Great Plains are preparing for what could be a tough growing season. They're scrambling to find irrigation water, made scarce by the region's persistent drought. In eastern Colorado, thirsty cities have gobbled up water rights for decades, selling what they don't need back to farmers. As KUNC and Harvest Public Media's Luke Runyon reports, the agreement only works when water is plentiful.
2 Responses to Drought Years Challenge Water Agreements between Cities and Ag Land
Nicole Rosa says:
Yet we seem to have an unlimited supply of water for the oil companies to use for fracking. Go figure.
Cyndy Kulp says:
Yes, Nicole, good point…. no mention of gas and oil operations in this piece and all the water they require for fracking, water that is then poisoned and needs to be disposed of forever. If cities are gobbling up water before farmers can get it, then perhaps we should look at what they are then re-selling to frackers. I understand that in Greely, the trucks pull up to the city hydrants every day to fill up! Surely this is causing local farmers to suffer even more.

Survey Questions About Employee Recognition Programs
Many companies are using survey questions about employee recognition programs to determine what their employees really want. This is a two edged sword. While it sounds proactive and caring to ask them for their input, the question itself can often carry the subtle message that you don't know and really don't care. It's like asking a class of third graders what they want for lunch – it won't lead to serving a balanced, nutritious meal; more likely they'll ask for candy. Employees are no different, they'll tell you what they WANT – money, not what they NEED – to be genuinely appreciated and respected.
Research from Maslow to Walker Information to Gallup all agree that it's the emotional aspects of work that engage and motivate employees, not pay or bonuses. Sure, nobody will turn down extra money, but when you respond with cash or gift cards to the answers to survey questions about employee recognition programs, you'll end up throwing them candy. These approaches, while appreciated, will not be lasting, will need to be increased every year, and will leave employees feeling "bought off", not recognized.
The 100 Best Companies to Work For consistently use caution in the area of compensation. They know that while good pay and bonuses get them better workers, it's the ways in which they demonstrate that they care about them as human beings that keeps them on staff and yields their 110% effort. You can buy their "C" game, but you must earn their "A" game buy showing love and respect. The minute they think you're attempting to manipulate their behavior using behaviorist Carrot and Stick approaches, you emotionally lose them and they begin to fall into minimal performance levels (and most don't even realize or know why).
The best employers engage employees emotionally, then offer performance incentives.
2 Responses to "Survey Questions About Employee Recognition Programs"
Great blog, you are exactly right. At Walker Information, I have been researching employee loyalty/engagement for 10 years and have found pay to have little impact on employee loyalty. It is generally things like development, fairness, recognition, and empowerment.

In Liver Gallbladder Tablets Alfred Vogel brings the seeds of Milk Thistle together with four other important herbs whose beneficial effect has been known for centuries. Its benefits were many and Vogel's patients found that it helped them cope with the excesses of the modern world. The liver performs many vital functions in the body. It stores vitamins and minerals, produces bile which is required for the breakdown of fat and is the main organ involved in the metabolism of food, drugs and hormones. Alfred Vogel called the liver "the regulator of life".

Basil sneezes a lot. However, about 90% of the time, he totally looks like he's faking it. You know how most sneezes are like, full blown head flinging, eyes scrunched shut, with snot blowing everywhere? Well, Basil's sneezes are gentle head flings, with a little puff of air sound, no snot or anything. Then after he sneezes, he looks at me like he expects me to do something! Usually I look at him like he's nuts, but to me it looks a lot like whoever owned him in the past thought sneezing was really cute, and enouraged and praised him until he learned he could get rewarded by pretending to sneeze. Not saying it's a bad thing, it's actually kind of cute
I am sort of worried that it might be something dangerous, though. I have asthma, and this kind of reminds me of when I have little coughing and wheezing fits. Does anyone think this sounds like some sort of resperatory problem, or allergies or something? I hope he's just trying to be cute, though
Oh, and Basil does sneeze like a normal dog on occasion, so I think there is a distinction

Students occupy the Senate House
As I write, the Student Occupation of the Senate House in Cambridge is entering its sixth day. To be precise they are occupying the University Combination Room -- which is a wise decision, as it is a large room, has a lot of comfy chairs, a controversial lift and wont be much missed by most working senior members of the university, who haven't got a minute to take a coffee break/lunch there anyway.
They are protesting against the now usual combination of "fees and cuts". Am I on their side?
Well, in one way, of course I am. It would be worrying if the students (and sixth formers with some eye on the future) didn't see what government proposals were likely to do to higher education, to the realistic chances of the less well off going to university (the coalition can go on till it's blue in the face about how there is nothing to pay up front, but the likelihood is that £30-40k of debt will put off many of the kids we want to attract), and to strength of Arts and Humanities in particular (which cant possible operate successfully on a supply and demand model).So, yes, they are right to make a fuss.
And anyone who looks at what the students have been doing in the Combination Room can hardly help but be touched: vegan meals, poetry readings, improving lectures, art-house movies and a good deal of essay writing. In those terms, and lets hope this continues, it's a model of student protest. If I was thirty years younger (and didn't have getting on for 20 hours teaching to be done in the rest of this week), I'd be there.
My only worry is what it is actually going to achieve, and who is to be convinced about what. And more generally, what the academic community in general should be doing to get their point across most effectively about this damage that is being done.
The students are trying to convince the university authorities. But, by and large, the authorities are broadly on the same side as the students (even if they have rather different ways of getting there). And the full range of student demands are probably not something any authorities could agree to anyway, not to the letter ("That the university declare it will never privatise" ... never say never). Interestingly the supporting letter from academics (which I have just signed) stops far short of backing the full student manifesto: the letters asks the university to "take note" of the student demands, and the Vice-Chancellor to express opposition to the current government's destructive agenda.
But on the other hand, what are they supposed to do? If they have a peaceful little march through the city centre and go back to their rooms, then the government pats itself on the back for smiling benevolently on the citizens' right to peaceful protest, and takes not a blind bit of notice.
So what is the right answer? I'm not sure. There have been some good things said in television debates about what the reforms will mean for arts and humanities (close to death, being the answer) .. but our spokespeople do tend to look like rather languid Oxbridge types.
And some of us did send a letter to the Telegraph, which you can read here. The Tory party paper of choice, let's hope someone reads it.

This is the info I was able to dig up:
230 grain = Muzzle velocity: 875 fps Muzzle energy: 391 ft/lbs
185 +p = Muzzle Velocity :1140 fps Muzzle Energy :534 ft/lbs
Difference will be the velocity and energy. The higher the muzzle energy the more felt recoil the shooter will have. Glocks are fine with the higher pressure loads, but I wouldn't recommend feeding them only a +p diet.
Try several types of brands and grains and see what you are able to control and go with that. hope this helps.

DIRTY AND BEAUTIFUL Vol.1 by GARY HUSBAND
Over the course of a remarkable, still-unfolding career, Gary Husband has defined himself as the ultimate musician's musician: a fiery, perceptive presence who elevates every scenario -from the tightly arranged to pure, open-ended improvisation. Whether focusing on his intricate, propulsive drumming or unleashing his nimble, harmonically astute keyboard abilities, Husband never fails to make his presence felt, while always remaining sympathetic to his fellow musicians and to the composition at hand. His vast range of experience allows him to balance the technical and the intuitive with rare grace, earning him the opportunity to perform and record alongside such maverick, inventive talents as John McLaughlin, Jeff Beck, Allan Holdsworth, Jack Bruce, Mike Stern, Robin Trower, Billy Cobham, Gary Moore, Level 42, Andy Summers, and many, many more.
In addition to his prolific career as a sideman, the British-born Husband has recorded seven of his own albums, featuring his multi-instrumental, compositional, and bandleading skills in an array of contexts. He is now poised to release his most ambitious project yet, the two-volume Dirty & Beautiful, volume one of which is to be made available by Abstract Logix on November 16, 2010, with volume two to follow in Spring of 2011. A visionary exercise years in the making, recorded in studios around the world, Dirty & Beautiful Volume One is a riveting showcase for the many gleaming facets of Husband's musical imagination, featuring an enviable cast of supporting musicians, among them John McLaughlin, Allan Holdsworth, Robin Trower, Steve Hackett (Genesis), Jerry Goodman (Mahavishnu Orchestra), Jimmy Herring (Widespread Panic, the Dead, Allman Brothers Band), Jan Hammer (Mahavishnu Orchestra and Miami Vice TV series soundtrack), Mark King (Level 42), and more.
"I feel this album to be rich, full of extremes, and passionate," Husband reflects. "It's not at all my first album, but it feels a little like a debut album, in that it heralds a return to my jazz/rock roots." The album's title hints at the unique co-existence that defines his music: for all its sophistication, technique, and facility, there is an underlying grit and intensity that somehow only enhances the luminous beauty at the core of these performances. "If I think about what it actually is to play -what the feeling is in what I chase -there's a quest for a profound beauty there, certainly. But it can't really be whole, to me, without the grunge, and the dirt. Like picking a fresh raspberry in the woods and eating it."
From brief, meditative keyboard soundscapes like "Afterglow" and "Swell" to intense, full-bore fusion workouts, Dirty & Beautiful includes newly-written and older Husband compositions alongside material from Holdsworth, guitarist Steve Topping, and formative classics by Jan Hammer and Miles Davis. Throughout, Husband performs all the drums and -save for a guest spot by Hammer on the opening "Leave 'Em On" -all the album's keyboards. "The duality between drums and keyboards is like second nature to me," he explains. "I've always been involved with the two instruments to the same degree. It's never been one over the other, and what I do with both tools makes up my complete realm of expression. If I'm playing drums along with a previously recorded track on keyboards or vice versa there's an instinctive sort of inner trust I detect, follow and settle with very quickly. I know it probably sounds like a pretty crazy method, but it all seems to figure out in the way that I feel it and approach it in a very natural way."
Of late, Husband has been most visible as a member (on both keys and occasional drums) of John McLaughlin's current performing/recording ensemble the 4th Dimension and through his longstanding work with various groups lead by Allan Holdsworth. Both guitarists -each an iconic figure who have had an immense influence on nearly every element of contemporary hybrid musics -contribute to Dirty & Beautiful, marking the first time they have appeared on the same project. McLaughlin's extraordinary solo on "Dreams in Blue" is exploratory and organic, moving from more expansive quiet statements to raging, brisk passages underpinned by Husband's furious, skittering drums. Husband follows McLaughlin's statement with a hushed acoustic piano solo that builds to a dizzying peak, allowing brief spotlights for guitar and bass to lead back into the restatement of the theme. Holdsworth contributes guitar to his own composition "Leave 'Em On," a longtime staple of his trio's live sets that has remained unrecorded until now. A subtle, deceptively gentle performance, Holdsworth is heard at his most evocative and probing, hanging long sustained notes over Husband's active percussion, Jan Hammer's glimmering keyboards, and the solid foundation of bassist Jimmy Johnson.
Holdsworth, Johnson, and Husband reconvene as a trio to perform Husband's haunting, disorienting "Boulevard Baloneyo," fittingly, as the song is based on their misadventures while on tour. "It depicts one of the journeys we did that I sort of deliberately 'surrealised,'" says Husband, laughing, "in tune with this constantly overtired disposition and frazzled state of mind we were all experiencing, brought about by jet lag and a rather exhausting tour schedule. Allan and Jimmy were marvellous on it, and I was really delighted with what we got. None of it is altered, edited or features any overdubs of any kind. With the exception of the front synth melody, the opening and closing GPS machine announcements, it's all just exactly as it happened on the day, live, in the studio."
Despite its kaleidoscopic range of styles, textures, and grooves -not to mention the various globe-spanning locales in which it was recorded -this first instalment of Dirty & Beautiful is powerfully coherent, thanks to both the consistent quality of its contributors and to Husband's careful curatorial instinct. "As with any album I make," he explains, "I concerned myself directly with the overall curve of the record -the journey it presents, how it travels from track to track, and the overall coherency. But, as I strongly hoped for since the beginning, and in spite of the fact there are a lot of artists from very different realms here, there is a definite, very particular kind of coherency going on through the several different lineups just doing what we do together -everything and everyone towards the same cause. The whole thing plays as I'd hoped -as one message, with everyone concerned conveying the same level of commitment, energy and heart from track to track through their performances. After all, the artists involved here are all so great, a lot of factors kind of end up taking care of themselves anyway!"
From Robin Trower's churning, wailing post-Hendrix guitar on the brief visit to Miles Davis's "Yesternow", to Steve Hackett's stirring interpretation of the wistful "Moon Song" through to Mark King's slithering bass on the refracted second-line funk of the closing "Alverstone Jam," Dirty & Beautiful Volume One is an explosive, evocative celebration of the of the mutual respect between Husband and his collaborators, and instantly heightens the anticipation for the second volume. "It's predominantly a record just about playing the kind of material I feel like playing right now with people, friends, and musical colleagues that I feel like playing with," Husband concludes. "In a big way, it also documents my perpetual activity as a touring musician. This album is what my diary frequently looks like and it portrays very much the fulfilment I experience playing with all of these various people on a pretty consistent basis, in the many and various musical worlds and situations that I do or have done. It's got my stamp on it, but we all speak and tune in to basically the same common language. Friendship binds it. Respect and harmony are also elements that bind it. There is the fact that I know most of these gentlemen extremely well and feel a deeply special closeness and bond with them as individuals and musicians. That binds it in an ultimate way for me."

The Key To Print Preview
Many of us find the Print Preview option in MS Word a very useful feature.
It's an excellent way to double check your layout before you waste paper and ink / toner printing something that really isn't ready to go.
I don't know about you, but I usually get to the Print Preview window either through the File menu or by using the button on the Standard Toolbar.
But today I stumbled across a keyboard shortcut that my readers who prefer to go mouseless will want to know about.
Next time try Ctrl + F2.
You should be taken straight to the Print Preview window. No fuss – no muss.

Learn the basics of Indian food and curries with 660 Curries by Raghavan Iyer, including primers on Cooking Rice and how to make Ghee, or Clarified Butter; and a recipe for Stewed Pineapple with Raisins and Chiles (Anaras Ambol).
There are many ways to cook basmati (and all other kinds of rice). The two ideal ways are the absorption/steeping method and the open-pot pasta method. Some people use rice cookers and even pressure cookers to cook this delicate grain, and I find that they generate too intense a heat, resulting in a mushy, overcooked texture. To salt or not to salt the rice is the Shakespearean query. In my curry recipes I use just enough salt to bring out the flavors, so I do recommend salting.
Makes 3 cups
1. Place the rice in a medium-size saucepan. Fill the pan halfway with water, to cover the rice. Gently rub the slender grains through your fingers, without breaking them, to wash off any dust or light foreign objects, like loose husks, which will float to the surface. The water will become cloudy. Drain this water. Repeat three or four times, until the water remains relatively clear; drain. Now add 1-1/2 cups cold water and let it sit at room temperature until the grains soften, 20 to 30 minutes.
2. Stir in the salt, and bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Cook until the water has evaporated from the surface and craters are starting to appear in the rice, 5 to 8 minutes. Now (and not until now), stir once to bring the partially cooked layer from the bottom of the pan to the surface. Cover the pan with a tight-fitting lid, reduce the heat to the lowest possible setting, and cook for 8 to 10 minutes (8 for an electric burner, 10 for a gas burner). Then turn off the heat and let the pan stand on that burner, undisturbed, for 10 minutes.
3. Remove the lid, fluff the rice with a fork, and serve.
Makes 3 cups
1. Fill a large saucepan halfway with water, and bring it to a rolling boil over medium-high heat.
2. While the water is heating, place the rice in a medium-size saucepan. Fill the pan halfway with water, to cover the rice. Gently rub the slender grains through your fingers, without breaking them, to wash off any dust or light foreign objects, like loose husks, which will float to the surface. The water will become cloudy. Drain this water. Repeat three or four times, until the water remains relatively clear; drain.
3. Add the rice to the boiling water, and stir once or twice. Bring the water to a boil again and continue to boil the rice vigorously, uncovered, stirring very rarely and only to test the kernels, until they are tender, 5 to 8 minutes. Immediately drain the rice into a colander and run cold water through it to stop the rice from continuing to cook. (The problem with his method is that the grain will go from just-right to overcooked in mere seconds if you are not attentive.)
4. Transfer the rice to a microwave-safe dish and stir in the salt. Just before you serve it, rewarm it at full power, covered, for 2 to 4 minutes.

Quotable Value: A case of increasing value
Luke, Belinda G., Verreynne, Martie-Louise, & Kearins, Kate (2006) Quotable Value: A case of increasing value. International Journal of Case Method Research and Application, 18(3), pp. 245-259.
In 2005 Quotable Value was New Zealand's largest valuation and property information organisation with approximately 230 staff and 22 offices throughout the country. While Government reforms within New Zealand had forced this former Government department to operate in a competitive market, a booming property industry and a number of innovative projects generating new income streams had fuelled Quotable Value's success and growth. Recent changes in the economic environment, however, and predictions that the property bubble would soon burst, also presented a number of threats. The challenge for Quotable Value was how to sustain and build further growth.

If I see another TV/movie character in my daughter'??s wardrobe, I'??m going to scream. I usually end up weeding out 50% of them when I go through hand-me-down clothes from family friends. One princess for her. One princess back in the bag.
Don'??t get me wrong. Snow White is lovely. And I adore Dora. I just want a little more intelligent fashion'?¦literally. And I mean that. Literally.
I was happy to be introduced to Out of Print, a New York City-based fashion brand created by avid readers Jeff LeBlanc and Todd Lawton. This line of clothing celebrates the world'??s great stories through fashion by featuring iconic and often out of print book covers. Think '??Moby Dick'?, '??A Catcher in the Rye'?, '??Of Mice and Men'?, '??Lolita.'? Each shirt has a soft vintage feel and is treated to feel soft and worn like a well-read book. Minus the library musty smell, I must say.
They recently launched their new line of kid'??s shirts. I consider these complete standouts in a world of Disney and cartoon characters. The unisex collection includes five classic adult literature titles: "Moby-Dick," "Catcher in the Rye," "Pride and Prejudice," "The Origin of Species," and "Brave New World." Dare I dream that introducing my daughter to these classics early on will mean her actually reading them eventually (no offense to Mr. Cliff and his Notes)?
Something else I adore (almost as much as Dora) is that for each shirt sold, Out of Print donates a book to a community in need through their partner Books for Africa. In just one year, Out of Print has been responsible for the donation of over three full-size sea containers carrying over 70,000 books to Kenya, Tanzania and Cameroon among other countries.
Talk about book smart fashion.
The Kids T-shirts are available for $22 at www.outofprintclothing.com and are available in 2T, 4T, and 6T.

+1 on the MOTU 2408 MK3 – I have never had any problems in 3-4 years!
I use M-Audio Profire 2626, very good interface! no problems at all!http://www.m-audio.com/products/en_us/ProFire2626.html
Last December, I compared Presonus 2444, AKAI EIE and Focusrite Scarlett 2i4.
Presonus had the best latency, but all in all the three interfaces are pretty comparable around the 200,- Euro mark. Went for the Focusrite in the end which sounded best for my Acoustic Guitar.
Now I need more than 2 Inputs and Focusrite just released two new interfaces, but I might wait and step up a class and get a RME.
