Breakfast Popsicles
This summer, ditch the cereal and start the day with a fruity, creamy frozen treat.
Stash a batch of these simple yogurt and fruit popsicles in the freezer and you'll always have a satisfying grab-and-go breakfast on hand—and an enticing way to lure yourself out of bed when the temperature's on the rise. Though we use juicy summer stone fruit here, you can easily swap in frozen peaches or mango when fresh fruit isn't in season. Watch the video for the full how-to.
- 2 tablespoons honey (preferably orange blossom)
- ¾ pound nectarines, peaches, or plums (about 2 large), thinly sliced
- 2 cups plain full-fat yogurt
- 2 tablespoons apricot preserves
- ⅓ cup granola
- Combine fruit and honey in a microwave safe bowl. Microwave for 5 minutes. Set aside to cool slightly. In a medium bowl, stir together the yogurt and preserves until smooth.
- Spoon a layer of yogurt mixture into the bottom of each popsicle mold. Add a spoonful of fruit with honey syrup. Sprinkle in a pinch of granola. Repeat with a layer of yogurt and fruit.
- Tap the mold against the counter to release any air bubbles that have been trapped inside. Insert popsicle sticks.
- Freeze until completely firm, at least 6 hours.

Take one of the most prolific feed, genetically modify it to withstand your patented chemicals, then get the FDA to approve planting it.
GM Alfalfa has been approved by the FDA meaning that within a decade most alfalfa will be some strain of their alfalfa, meaning most animals will contain some of that alfalfa.
Since Monsanto has successfully sued farmers for allowing their corn to become contaminated with pollen from Monsanto's GMO corn in the next field, perhaps people can successfully sue Monsanto every time they find GMO contaminated alfalfa in their own feed?

Joel L. Plawsky
Professor of Chemical Engineering,
Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute
Sc.D., Chemical Engineering, Massachusetts
Institute of Technology (MIT), 1986
M.S., Chemical Engineering Practice, MIT, 1982
B.S., Chemical Engineering, Magna Cum Laude, University of
Michigan, 1980
Career Highlights:
Prior to joining Rensselaer, Plawsky spent
two years as a senior engineer at Corning, Inc. He then served as
an assistant professor in the department of chemical engineering
and as director of the School of Engineering Practice, Albany Station,
at MIT. He became a member of Rensselaer's Department of Chemical
Engineering in the fall of 1988. Plawsky was a NASA Faculty Fellow
in 1999 and 2000, a visiting professor at Delft University of Technology
in 2002, and a visiting professor at the National Space Science
and Technology Center in 2003.
Plawsky earned a Lilly Teaching Fellowship in
1991 and was awarded the Outstanding Research Paper Award in 1995
at the American Society of Mechanical Engineers/Japan Society of
Mechanical Engineers (ASME/JSME) Thermal Engineering Conference.
He is a member of three honorary societies: Tau Beta Pi, Phi Lambda
Upsilon, and Sigma XI and five professional societies: the American
Institute of Chemical Engineers, the Optical Society of America,
the Materials Research Society, the American Chemical Society, and
the American Institute of Physics. Plawsky also holds patents for
a fiber optic probe and system for particle size and velocity measurement,
and for polymer/xerogel integrated optical waveguides.
Research Areas:
Plawsky's team's is conducting studies on
thin films applied to photonic, microelectronic, and micro heat
and mass transfer devices. He also works on new methods for concrete
and mortar production and has a pioneering fluid mechanics experiment
that will take place on the International Space Station.
The objective of Plawsky's integrated optical
devices research is to develop complex optical circuits using nanoporous
materials in combination with organic and inorganic thin films as
the optical guiding and sensing layers. Such devices are becoming
increasingly important in the telecommunication and data communication
industries for processing optical signals, as well as for development
of future generations of supercomputers and integrated biological
and chemical sensors.
Plawsky's studies of inorganic-organic copolymer
systems focus on hybrid nanoporous materials. His group is working
to produce hybrid systems for use in sensors, insulation, and integrated
electrical and photonic circuits. They also are interested in the
fundamental transport processes that can occur in these systems
and in exploiting those processes to make microscale chemical processing
Concrete is the most widely used construction
material on the planet, yet the technology for making it has changed
little in over 2000 years. Now Plawsky and his researchers have
developed a mixing apparatus to decouple mixing from reaction. They
are investigating the fundamental interaction between particle size,
chemical reaction, and mixing that is required to produce high performance,
energy efficient, Earth-friendly concrete.
Plawsky also is involved in a fundamental investigation
into the interaction of a thin liquid film with a solid surface.
Researchers are altering the interaction between the fluid and solid
surface either by using heat transfer to actively evaporate and
condense a pure liquid on the surface, or by modifying the surface
using self-assembled monolayers. The study eventually will be the
first fluid mechanics experiment aboard the International Space

Ikea Grundtal Shelf amd Lillholmen Triple Hook
Product Review: Ikea Grundtal Shelf and Lillholmen Hook
Since my fiancé and I live in a fairly small two-bedroom bungalow, we're always looking for ways to organize and consolidate. To that end, I went to Ikea looking for some funny little items in which to organize my earrings, bracelets, and necklaces, effectively getting them off of the dresser and reducing clutter. The Grundtal Glass Shelf and Lillholmen Triple Hook seemed to fit the bill.
While I was, in the end, pleased with these items, I was not happy about the assembly process.
To hear me gripe, just
Here are my gripes about these products:
- The directions were incorrect! Now, we all know that Ikea directions are a drag, and often confusing, but the picture demonstrating how to orient the mounting hardware on the Grundtal shelf was backwards! This resulted in some chipped paint and grumpy words from yours truly, but I eventually figured it out.
- The shelf and hook were both missing screws for mounting them onto the wall. What if I'd been some college student who didn't own any extra screws? I would've been one unhappy customer indeed.
- A regular flathead screwdriver is too large to screw in the final mounting screw. Seriously, it requires something closer to the tiny screwdriver that comes with eyeglass kits. Again, annoying. I ended up using the blade of a Swiss army knife to twist in the tiny screw.
- You definitely need to use a level and measure carefully, since the shelf has to be coordinated perfectly with the wall brackets.
But still, even after all of this griping, I did manage to find a solution to the jewelry-all-over-the-dresser issue. We're both thrilled that there's more dresser space (on which to throw loose change and lunch receipts, ahem), and I'm happy to have my jewelry organized finally.

More and more people are leaving their home countries to seek asylum in the UK.
Many end up in detention centres until officials decide whether or not they can stay and that's exactly what happened to Press Packer Meltem...
"I left Turkey when I was six because I am Kurdish and my family were in danger.
Firstly, we went to Germany to try to escape but we were not allowed to stay there so we came to Britain to see if we could seek asylum.
I wasn't really scared when we were moving around, I was too young to really know what was going on.
It's only as I've got older that I've realised how scary it must have been for my family.
After arriving in Britain we had to wait until we knew whether we could stay or not. All the time we always felt scared because we didn't know if we would be put in a detention centre or allowed to stay.
Told to leave
Then one day seven years later, we heard really loud knocking on our door early in the morning. Five big men came in and told us they were taking us to a detention centre.
My best friend was staying over at the time and they took her away and I didn't even get a chance to say goodbye.
The men told us we had to quickly pack some stuff to take with us, but we had to leave so quickly I had to leave most of my clothes and stuff behind.
To tell you what this is like imagine being pulled from your bed first thing in the morning by men you don't know! It was really scary.
No privacy
Then they put us in a van and took us to a police station where we had to wait for the van to take us to the detention centre. The van that arrived was a caged one and I felt like we were being treated like animals not human beings!
Once we were at the detention centre they searched us to check we didn't have anything metal or glass. It felt like we were being treated as criminals, it was horrible.
The detention centre was bad because we felt like we were in prison. We were put in a room with other people and didn't have much privacy.
In danger
It was really depressing because we were not able to see friends, and were only allowed out into a tiny yard with big walls around it.
Also, we had no idea whether we would be allowed to stay or would be sent back to Turkey where we were in danger.
If I could speak to the people in the government who look after detention centres I would say: 'How would you like your children or grandchildren to be treated in the way I was?'"
Meltem, 15, London
Why don't you write us a Press Pack report - and get it published on the site!
It can be about anything that's happened in your local area - or your views on the news.

POMONA -- Although it's not a perfect plan, representatives of the Metro Gold Line Foothill Extension Construction Authority told a group of city residents and property owners this week that building an extension of the light rail line from Azusa to Montclair will bring with it significant economic development opportunities.
But city administrators said they welcome the project but they have concerns related to several aspects of the project, especially plans to build a bridge that will carry Gold Line trains over Towne Avenue and expected traffic congestion problems on North Garey Avenue near the Gold Line station in northern Pomona.
City and authority officials spoke to about 15 people Tuesday evening in what was an information meeting organized by the city at the Palomares Park Community Center.
The environmental review documents for the project were recently approved and the project is entering preliminary engineering phase but at this point there is not funding for it, said Eugene Kim, vice president and senior planning manager at the firm of Parsons Brinckerhoff.
Federal, state and local funds to complete the project will be sought, said Kim, project manager for the Azusa to Montclair extension.
Construction Authority representatives said the current plans for the project have been developed with the goal of bringing the light rail extension to fruition and doing so cost effectively.
The project is expected to have environmental benefits.
"It will get people out of their cars," Kim said.
In addition, the project connects various downtowns and "has a lot of economic development potential," Kim said, adding it will fit in with Pomona's own vision for transit-oriented development around the Gold Line station.
"The plans we developed are intended to be complementary to city transit oriented development plans," he said.
Transit oriented developments include residential and commercial uses that are built near public transportation services.
Lee said the project has encountered challenges in Pomona involving the Towne Avenue bridge and traffic concerns on North Garey Avenue.
The proposed bridge that would carry Gold Line trains over Towne Avenue would be about 35 feet tall with an additional 20 feet of polls and wires to power the trains, said Brad Johnson, Pomona's planning manager.
Aesthetically, the bridge resembles a freeway overpass and is expected to block views of the mountains to the north of it, Johnson said.
What the city would prefer "is an actual true grade separation," Johnson said.
The city would also like to have the light rail tracks depressed with enough space to accommodate Metrolink commuter rail and freight train tracks, Johnson said.
Also of concern is the impact the Gold Line train traffic will have on North Garey Avenue, Johnson said.
The street, a major corridor in the city, already has traffic problems associated with the travel of Metrolink and fright trains through the area, he said.
Lee said the construction to the bridge will improve traffic flow in the area.
The Garey Avenue congestion situation could be addressed with an adjustment of sensors that cause railroad gates to close and block the path of vehicles when they detect oncoming train traffic even when a train is present but not moving, Kim said.
The sensors can be adjusted but representatives of the rail agency that controls the sensors disagree with that recommendation and say the run appropriately, he said.

9 He left that place and entered their synagogue; 10a man was there with a withered hand, and they asked him, Is it lawful to cure on the sabbath? so that they might accuse him. 11He said to them, Suppose one of you has only one sheep and it falls into a pit on the sabbath; will you not lay hold of it and lift it out? 12How much more valuable is a human being than a sheep! So it is lawful to do good on the sabbath. 13Then he said to the man, Stretch out your hand. He stretched it out, and it was restored, as sound as the other. 14But the Pharisees went out and conspired against him, how to destroy him.

Plymouth, UK (SPX) Mar 28, 2014
Ecologists at Plymouth University, in a study published this week, have shown the most common species of bumblebee are not fussy about a plant's origin when searching for nectar and pollen among the nation's urban gardens.
But other species - and, in particular, long-tongued bees - do concentrate their feeding upon plants from the UK and Europe, for which they have developed a preference evolved over many millennia.
Dr Mick Hanley, Lecturer in Ecology at Plymouth University, said the study showed the continued importance of promoting diversity and encouraging gardeners to cast their net wide when choosing what to cultivate.
"Urban gardens are increasingly recognised for their potential to maintain or even enhance biodiversity," Dr Hanley said. "In particular, the presence of large densities and varieties of flowering plants supports a number of pollinating insects whose range and abundance has declined as a consequence of agricultural intensification and habitat loss.
"By growing a variety of plants from around the world, gardeners ensure that a range of food sources is available for many different pollinators. But until now we have had very little idea about how the origins of garden plants actually affect their use by our native pollinators."
The study, in the forthcoming April issue of the journal Annals of Botany (published by Oxford University Press), set out to examine whether bumblebees preferentially visited plants with which they share a common biogeographical heritage, with researchers conducting summer-long surveys along a typical residential street.
It showed that rather than discriminating between Palaearctic (a range extending across Europe, north Africa and northern Asia) and non-Palaearctic garden plants, bees simply visited plants in proportion to flower availability. Indeed, of the six most commonly visited garden plants, only one - Foxglove - was a British native and only three of Palaearctic origin.
Among individual species, however, there were distinct preferences, with the long-tongued 'garden bumblebee' (Bombus hortorum) showing a strong preference for 'native' Palaearctic-origin garden plants, choosing them for 78% of its flower visits. Meanwhile, the UK's most common species - the 'buff-tailed bumblebee' (Bombus terrestris) - favoured non-Palaearctic garden plants over species with which it shares a common evolutionary heritage.
Dr Hanley added: "As a general rule, bees will go wherever there are flowers available. However, if native plants were to disappear completely from our towns and cities, the long-term survival of some of our common pollinators - like the 'garden bumblebee' - could be in jeopardy.
"In addition to growing truly native plants like foxgloves, where possible, gardeners can help native pollinators by setting aside a small area to allow native brambles, vetches, dead nettles, and clovers to grow. But as long as some native species are available in nearby allotments, parks, or other green spaces, a combination of commonly-grown garden plants from all around the globe will help support our urban bumblebees for future generations."

Sandcastle Waterpark in Homestead is sliding into 25th-year celebration
A steamy day with temperatures expected to approach 90 degrees was the perfect time for a water park to announce its birthday celebration.
Sandcastle Waterpark in Homestead turns 25 this season. Opened in July 1989, the park has grown to 15 water slides; three pools — the Mon-Tsunami Wave Pool, Mushroom Pool and pint-sized Tad Pool; a relaxing Lazy River and Wet Willie's Waterworks.
The celebration continues through July 25 with contests and events, such as Radio Disney appearances, games and discounts. Specials will be announced on the Sandcastle website.
Sandy Och, a season-pass holder who has been visiting the park since it opened, and her 16-year-old daughter, Daria, like to race on the Blue Tubaluba, two dual-rider slides over 450 feet long.
"She usually wins," said Och of Baldwin. "We love coming here because it's close, and it's a very clean park. Just look at how clean the water is."
Her daughter, who enjoys every slide in the park, said it's a fun way to spend a summer day and is a great place to meet people, get a tan and stay cool.
Friends Leann Poliziani and Alex Mosco, both 14 of South Park, say coming to Sandcastle is a perfect way to spend a day with friends.
"We need more parks like this," Mosco said.
"It's a cool place with some cool slides," Poliziani said.
Other slides include the Dragon's Den, a two-person tube slide through a 45-foot tunnel that then drops riders into a 35-foot bowl, where they encircle a 9-foot dragon while being sprayed by a watery mist and before hitting the landing pool.
Thunder Run has three slides perched atop a 50-foot tower that are 400 feet long. The Cliffhangers has two 48-feet-high slides and three sky ponds. Tubers Towers is a pair of 46-foot-high slides that are 430 feet long.
Body slides include the Boardwalk Blasters where riders travel down a 25-foot slide and plunge into the 12-foot-deep pool below.

Those who have never been to the park "need to come and see what Sandcastle has to offer," said Melissa Kelly, marketing, group sales and public relations manager for Sandcastle. "It is more than a water park. It's a vacation in a day. Enjoy gorgeous views of the river, float along the Lazy River, ride one of the many slides or walk along the boardwalk. There is really something for everyone at Sandcastle."

text: Went to look at a job saturday and Im not real sure what to do from here. We havent done a lot of rock work, but a flagstone patio is something we can do, but maybe not in this situation. The homeowner wants a flagstone patio in the back yard pretty much wrapping around a 75-100 year old tree, with roots coming up out of the ground everywhere. To the point where the roots go beyond his property fence. What is the best option here? There is nowhere else to put the patio, due to the small back yard, but should I try raising up the level with heavily compacted topsoil, then go off of that? Or will that eventually still be pushed up by the roots? I have some pictures I will try to get uploaded tomorrow, but just looking for the best way to go about this. Would rather not turn it down because the budget is good for it, but on the same hand dont want to do it and question the stability/quality of it. TIA ViceNut

Hey there, time traveller!

The Girl Who Kicked the Hornet's Nest
By Stieg Larsson
Translated from the Swedish by Reg Keeland
Viking Canada, 602 pages, $32
Talk about kicking a hornet's nest.
By now, the story behind the late Stieg Larsson's Millennium trilogy is well-known. A Swedish journalist known for his writing on antidemocratic and Nazi organizations, Larsson wrote three novels but died in 2004 before their publication.
The novels introduced readers to crusading journalist Mikael Blomkvist and his sometime sleuthing partner, antisocial hacker Lisbeth Salander.
The series has been a runaway success, selling more than 27 million copies in 40 countries Swedish films have been made of each, the first of which premiered in North America this year, and a Hollywood adaptation is expected in 2012.
To top it off, the late author's royalties -- worth at least US$15 million -- are the subject of a bitter dispute between his partner of 32 years and his family. The legal drama unfolding in the absence of a will is reminiscent of the wrangling that takes place in the latest, and likely last, novel by Larsson to see print.
One might think, given he could not continue working on the novels as they were published, that there would be loose ends or a decline in quality. Fortunately for readers of The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo and The Girl Who Played with Fire, the latest instalment holds up.
Picking right up from the end of Fire, The Girl Who Kicked the Hornet's Nest finds Lisbeth Salander in hospital suffering a gunshot wound in the head.
Blomkvist is left to deal with the police who want to know why Salander was shot -- and why she tried to put an axe into the head of an elderly Russian man.
That Russian, Zalachenko, is Salander's abusive father. But as a defector and key informant for Säpo, the Swedish security police, Zalachenko has effective legal immunity.
The authorities turned a blind eye to his abuse of his wife, which prompted Salander, at the age of 12, to firebomb his car.
Säpo -- or rather the secretive department within Säpo responsible for Zalachenko, the "Section for Special Analysis" -- hushed that up too and had Salander locked up in a mental institution for most of her adolescence.
What's intriguing about the series is the way Larsson shifts gears with each book.
Tattoo was a straight mystery, but Larsson was already exploring violence against and oppression of women in Sweden's liberated society. (The Swedish title for The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo is Men Who Hate Women -- a phrase that crops up once in each book.) He also set up the complicated relationship between Blomkvist and Salander.
In Fire, the story became a crime thriller. Salander's troubled past came back to bite her, and she was blamed for three murders ordered by Zalachenko.
Salander was soon on the run from police and seeking revenge on her father, even as Blomkvist tried to prove her innocence.
Now, in Hornet's Nest, Larsson presents a complex political thriller. He pulls in Säpo, the Section and their government taskmasters. Blomkvist is put under surveillance, crucial evidence for his planned exposé of Säpo is stolen, and his chief witness is found dead.
While Salander languishes in hospital under heavy guard, Blomkist learns the plot to destroy her life may reach all the way to the prime minister's office.
Larsson is careful to avoid sounding like a wild-eyed conspiracist -- not all the police and bureaucrats are baddies. Sometimes it's too careful, and a bit preachy, as various authorities declare their outrage. "If even a fraction of it is true, then we have a constitutional crisis on our hands," intones one Säpo chief when he learns of the Section's activities.
In fact, everyone but Blomkvist seems a bit slow on the uptake that the Swedish government could possibly get its hands dirty.
With headlines in the last five years of warrantless wiretaps in the U.S. or the deportation of Canadian Maher Arar, such things no longer seem as shocking as Larsson must have intended when he wrote the books.
Still, the plot rolls along with surprise murders, false trails of evidence, and extreme forms of damage control carried out by veterans of the Section, who realize if Zalachenko or Salander talk, their department will be destroyed.
And Salander's trial, which drags in all her psychological evaluations (faked to cover up institutionalized abuse), emerges as the critical field on which she and Blomkvist will strike back at the men who took control of her life. If they survive long enough to make it to court.
The trial is where familiarity with Sweden's legal tradition might help. There's a lot of surprise evidence and drastic twists that seem more dramatic (if satisfying) than strictly kosher.
Larsson planned seven more books, with the fourth volume already started before his death. It's unlikely it will see print, but that doesn't matter.
Hornet's Nest ties up the loose ends from the first two novels, and sees the action through to its thrilling conclusion.

Kia Becomes Carbon Neutral In New Zealand
Kia Becomes Carbon Neutral In New Zealand
Fast-growing car company, Kia Motors, is taking active measures in New Zealand to reduce its carbon footprint.
Going beyond
simply purchasing carbon credits to offset business
activities that harm the environment, the New Zealand arm of
Kia Motors has devised a plan aimed at reducing its total
emissions footprint, in addition to offsetting.
That plan includes making reductions in freighting its new vehicles to dealers around the country, cutting staff travel and reducing fuel used by the company's vehicles.
These steps are all part of a programme that has seen Kia Motors NZ successfully gain carboNZeroCertTM certification from carboNZero Holdings Limited, one of the leading certifying agencies for businesses and organisations wanting to make a positive change to their environment-affecting activities.
Todd McDonald, General Manager of Kia Motors
New Zealand, says the company takes its environmental
responsibilities very seriously around the world.
"We have been encouraged by the way various parts of the Kia Motors global family have made meaningful changes to lower their environmental emissions and cut wastage and we were determined to play our part in New Zealand in a way that would involve more than just offsetting our carbon footprint," he says.
"When we sat down with carboNZero Holdings, we wanted to know what actions we could take to make reductions that can be measured."
That process included verifying every facet of the Kia Motors NZ operation for 2011 by carboNZero Holdings' auditors to establish exactly how much carbon is used in the everyday activities of the company to provide a benchmark for future reductions and mitigation. The study showed that 87% of emissions by Kia Motors NZ were due to freighting vehicles and parts to New Zealand and within its local network. Around 8% of its carbon footprint was due to international and domestic travel by staff members.
Mr McDonald says the
fact that Kia relies on shipping vehicles from factories in
Asia and Europe and then distributing these to dealerships
around the country for its business presents a challenge,
but the company is working with its local suppliers on how
to consolidate shipments to reduce movements.
As well as targeting freight for carbon reduction, Kia Motors NZ is also focusing on reducing staff travel and fuel consumption and educating staff and suppliers in how to make savings. Kia says it will be able to meet fuel reduction targets because new vehicles being introduced over the next three years will use less petrol and diesel.
To become completely carbon neutral, Kia Motors NZ says it will also need to offset unavoidable greenhouse gas emissions created from its business through purchase of carbon credits.
current carboNZero certification is valid until the end of
2015, when it will be

You can see, upon close inspection, the mark of the planer on his well-turned sentences.
The scholar, too, was remembered with a toast, to which he replied with well-turned phrases.
But he paid the singer so easy and well-turned a compliment as put to shame the clumsy "Thanks, O'Reilly!"
He thought of her humorous eyes, and of her strong, well-turned chin.
He shuffled, nervously slapping his well-turned calves with Harlequin's lath-sword.
His well-turned compliments were as fine as his smart repartees.
From smiling, well-turned out "castmembers" to construction workers with butt-crack-itis and grouchy expressions.
In trying for a well-turned line they forget to look at well-turned ankles.
She concluded by a well-turned and pathetic allusion to her state of health, which indeed was pitiable enough.

text: August 16, 2012 – Hear ye! Hear ye! Gentlewomen and gentlemen, Le Cabaret du Roy invites you to partake in a colourful journey into the past, where laughs, songs and revelry are served as gaily as they are generously. Brought to life by hilarious characters right out of history and eager minstrels, the establishment serves up an experience that is typical of the period that belonged to seigneurs and commoners of 18th-century New France, in that era's striking décor and ambiance. Recipient for the second time of an award from the Grands Prix du tourisme québécois in 2010 (regional winner, Tourism Development – Dining) after having earned the gold award in the same category in 2003, today Le Cabaret du Roy enjoys a reputation that surpasses borders. And for good reason, as its cuisine and entertainment offerings are without parallel. Feast with wild abandon, loosen your belt and sing yourself hoarse! In addition to loads of fun, the place also offers a variety of menus concocted to sate all good men and women. Affordable and hearty café menu for some, menu for special days for others, and gourmet feasts for lords and ladies, with or without their retinue. You may also fill your bellies with Native specialties, country cooking and grilled game prepared with finesse by a devoted cook. To these most appealing menus are added special events such as the French story telling on Sundays, as well as the Sugar Shack in March and April. During the warmer months, Le Cabaret du Roy also welcomes everyone to its pretty patio. To escape the everyday of modern life, this is an address that's a good place to be in Old Montréal.

Philz Coffee shop comes to Facebook campus
Employees clocking long hours at Facebook's new Menlo Park campus require fuel in the form of caffeine, of course, so Philz Coffee plans to open up shop later this year, according to an announcement posted on the franchise's (where else?) Facebook page.
The micro-kitchens on campus already stock Philz, which is based in San Francisco, making the shop a natural fit. A Facebook representative said the social networking company continues to look for vendors for its new headquarters, and will be talking to a few Menlo Park businesses.

The 56th consecutive sellout crowd at the Coliseum witnessed a balanced Husker attack, as Nebraska hit .336 in winning its 26th straight match. In addition to Pavan who hit .483 with four blocks, Christina Houghtelling added a double-double with 15 kills and 11 digs, while Jennifer Saleaumua also chipped in a double-double with 12 kills on .333 hitting and a match-high 15 digs.
The Huskers (29-1) will now meet Louisville next Friday, Dec. 10, in Louisville in the NCAA Regionals, while Wichita State, which was making its first NCAA appearance, closes its season with a 25-5 record.
The Huskers took command early in game one, jumping out to an 8-3 lead and never looking back in a 30-22 win. After spotting the Huskers the early lead, Wichita State came back, closing to within 9-7 after a pair of Husker hitting errors. Saleaumua then quickly extended the lead to 11-7 with a kill and a service ace, as Nebraska led by at least three points the rest of the way. WSU got to within 22-18 on a kill by Darci Vohs before a kill by Pavan, who had six kills in the opener, and a combined block by Pavan and Melissa Elmer on Lara Geer gave NU a six-point lead and ended the visitors best opportunity to take game one.
In game two, Houghtelling keyed a decisive spurt, as the Huskers hit .487 in a 30-20 win. With the match tied at 13, Houghtelling, who had six of her 15 kills in game two, single-handedly accounted for five kills in a 6-2 Husker run, giving Nebraska a 19-15 cushion. The Shockers continued to whittle away at the NU advantage, closing to within 24-19 after a Husker error, but kills by Tracy Stalls and Dani Busboom began a 6-1 run to close out game two.
In the finale, Nebraska needed to overcome a six-point deficit before pulling away with a 30-21 win. The Shockers used runs of 4-0 and 3-0 to take a 15-9 lead after a Husker hitting error. NU made quick work of the deficit by scoring five unanswered points to get within 15-14 after a Houghtelling kill. The Huskers eventually took the lead for good at 19-18 on a Saleaumua kill and led 23-21 before closing the match with seven straight points. Dani Busboom, who had 45 assists and nine digs, served the final six points, while Houghtelling accounted for solo blocks on two of the final three points, including match point, to send Nebraska to the NCAA Regionals for the 11th straight year.
Sara Lungren led Wichita State with 10 kills, as the Shockers were held to .111 hitting and were out-blocked 13-5. Sarah Younes, the MVC Player of the Year who had six aces in the opening round against Nevada, was held to three kills and no aces while hitting -.125.
Notes: Nebraska sophomore libero Amanda McCormick also
reached double figures in digs with 441, tying Jennifer Saleaumua's
single-season school record set last season. With 1,105 digs in her career,
Saleaumua moved within five digs of the NU career mark of 1,111 held by Lindsay
Wischmeier (1999-2002). With five blocks, Melissa Elmer, who also had nine
kills, became the 10th Husker to reach 500 career blocks in school
history....Pavan is hitting .445 with 4.85 kills per game over the last four
Nebraska Head Coach John Cook
On the match
It was a great match. Wichita State presented our team a great challenge tonight. We had only a little time to prepare for Wichita State, so it took our team a little time to adjust. Tactically, they're as tough of a team as we have played this year, and they made a couple of big runs. Our crowd was into it, and it felt like a big NCAA match.
On Nebraska coming back from a 15-9 deficit in
game three to win the match
All year, our team has never panicked. We were able to make a run with blocking defense. Also, we continue to serve well. Our team didn't panic, and even when Wichita State got on a run, we got through it and won.
On the balance of Nebraska's attack
We tried to be balanced all year. We made a specific gameplan to attack Wichita State. Dani Busboom did a great job of running our gameplan. We knew that, if we executed our gameplan, that they couldn't stop us. They were switching their blockers on us, putting their big blocker on Sarah Pavan. But Dani would just give it to the other hitters, and Christina Houghtelling and Jen Saleaumua would beat the smaller blockers.
Sarah Pavan
On sustaining through the test presented by Wichita State
We know that the teams only get tougher. It was a good test to see if we can keep our composure. It will in the later matches, because something like this match could happen again. We know that we have the ability to turn around games.
On the performance of NU's Dani Busboom
They had some small hitters, and Dani set to hit against them. They switched their small hitters to the left, but Dani picked up on that. She played really well.
On celebrating this weekend
We can't think about this weekend too much. We'll celebrate it tonight and tomorrow, and get back to practice Monday. We have to look ahead.
On sustaining through the test presented by Wichita State
I thought we showed a lot of teamwork and trust. We know that we can pull out the match. We have great team chemistry and want to win for each other.
On the current state of the Huskers
I think everything is meshing together at just the right time. Our passing is consistent, Dani is setting great, we're serving well and our blocking is great. It's good to know that all that fine tuning has paid off. Wichita State had their runs and there's always room for improvement, but we're doing a great job of making that we're coming together.
On the team's excitement to play in
We're still excited. We're anxious to get to Louisville. We're so anxious, we want to play each match in a row. We'll be up for Louisville.
Christina Houghtelling
On what was proved by Nebraska's comeback in the third game from a 15-9 deficit
It's nice to know that we can put pressure on teams when we're behind. We can't expect perfection all the time. Tonight showed that our team can fight through.
On the performance of NU's Dani Busboom
Dani executed our gameplan well tonight. Her attacking at the net helped us tonight. She was really aggressive. It was great, and that something we need to do every game.
Wichita State Coach Chris Lamb
Opening Statement
This is something I thought about a long time ago, that every season ends with a loss. It's tough this ends in a tournament, but it was to a darn good team.
This team took larger steps than Wichita State has ever taken. We started rated No. 1 in the conference and came a long way.
On the caliber of Nebraska
It is kind of an irony. We have been able to out-man a lot of teams on our schedule. Nebraska takes the game to a whole new level. It's kind of a hopeless feeling when we start a rally and then they get scramble rallies going and chase everything down.
On Wichita State's possible break down at 15-9 in
the third game
No, it wasn't at that point. We had some bad passing before in the game. But, we knew Nebraska could come back.
On the atmosphere
I am going to say it is the best. Hawaii may double the crowd size, but here everyone is on top of you. The fans have a great knowledge of the game. It's like the fans and players go out and practice together.
On pressuring Nebraska
I hope they felt pressured. I hope John Cook thinks we gave them a push.
On Sarah Pavan
I have coached (former Stanford All-American) Kerri Walsh in club, and I coached in the Pac-10. But how do you simulate it, stand on a ladder and hit balls at my players? That young lady has one heck of a career ahead of her. She's very special and I hope I was a little piece of it.
On how far Wichita State has come
That is a question I love to answer. Five years ago our RPI was 279, now we're above 30. I tell the girls in the locker room, its one thing to win a national championship. But I want to know a team that has came farther than the Shockers, and I want to schedule them and beat them.
Andee Hartig
On playing Nebraska
You could tell they have been here before. They have very big and powerful girls.
On the atmosphere
It's awesome here. We have been to Hawaii, but here everybody's on top of you. I wouldn't say it's a hostile environment because the people here want to see good volleyball. It's fun to play here.
On playing their best
That is something about this team, that we had so many different combinations and I never thought we actually clicked.
Sara Younes
On playing Nebraska
They were definitely a bigger team than we have ever played before. They were all over six feet, probably over 6-2.
On the atmosphere
It is awesome. The team and the fans are so energetic and all on the same page. They want to see good volleyball.
Sara Lungren
On the NCAA Tournament
We won our first match, which is awesome. Next year, our goal is to win two matches. Now we expect to win.
On the size and power of Nebraska
They were something we haven't faced all season. They are a really good blocking team and very big, which will probably make us better.
On playing without being nervous
We came and played hard. We had fun and battled.

Grand View hosted a peace and security forum April 26th – May 1st sponsored by the GV Sociology Department and the Center for the Exploration and Practice of Peace and Nonviolence in collaboration with IRIS (Iowa Resource for International Services). The theme was Peace (Zaman Lafiya), Security (Tsaro), and Progress (Chigaba).
The forum was initiated by Professor Ahmadu A. Baba Singhri, a native of Nigeria, and Professor Ammertte Deibert, in response to insecurities in Nigeria as a result of ethno-religious violent conflicts and terrorism. This was observed in the recent kidnapping in Nigeria of more than 200 girls, a majority of which are still missing. Nigerian delegates were on campus to present their peace-making strategies.
