Each product uses a synergy of exotic extracts, powerful botanicals and potent herbs to enhance all skin and hair types. Peter Lamas is committed to creating natural and organic products that are free of harmful chemicals and perform to a professional standard. Their Inception With over 30 years experience in the beauty industry, there are very few people who have the sort of knowledge and experience Peter Lamas possesses. Peter has seen firsthand the detrimental effect that chemicals, additives and abrasives, found in many skin and hair care products, have on people. The long-term impact of using harsh chemicals can do permanent damage to the very thing you're seeking to enhance. At the most, some of these chemicals are quite toxic and known carcinogens. The skin is the body's largest organ, and it is incredibly permeable. Every product you use isn't simply sitting on your skin, it is absorbed and enters your system. It is with this understanding that Peter became committed to creating his own line of vegan and organic products - free of harsh chemicals. Each product is formulated with Certified Organic botanicals and natural ingredients shown to heal, not harm. Dry, brittle, lifeless hair regains its luster and strength. Dull, damaged skin becomes revitalized and refreshed. Strictly OrganicAll Peter Lamas Products are 100% vegan. They ensure their products do not contain harmful chemicals or unnecessary additives by emphasizing the use of natural ingredients and Certified Organic botanicals. Their entire collection is paraben-free, petrochemical-free and SLS-free - for organic products that deliver on their promise. Cruelty-Free / No Animal Testing Peter Lamas Products is committed to offering premium products that are free of any animal ingredients. Additionally, their company does not test their products on animals - They do not want to, nor do they need to. The natural ingredients in their products are safe, nourishing, and have been used by humans for centuries. PricingChemicals are cheap and abundant, which is why most companies use them. The natural ingredients used in all Peter Lamas products are premium, more costly and difficult to obtain. Although they use the finest ingredients currently available, they also strive to keep their prices as competitive as possible to be able to offer you high-quality products at a reasonable price. Why Natural and Organic? Their PhilosophyPeter's mother worked as a bookkeeper in a paper mill. The offices there seemed to always be covered in a thin layer of dust from the cardboard and paper formulation. She often wore a mask over her nose and mouth at work to keep from breathing the dust. Peter recalls reading once, towards the end of her career, that people who worked in such places had a higher risk of developing multiple myeloma (bone cancer) than the general population due to the chemicals used in the manufacturing process. Shortly after she retired, his mother was diagnosed with terminal multiple myeloma. Then there are the three close family friends -- three sisters in their 40's -- all were diagnosed with breast cancer within a year of each other. Their doctors advised them that common chemical fertilizers the women had regularly been exposed to growing up on a farm, probably played a central role in their getting the disease. Peter has read studies that show beauty salon workers, like hair stylists and nail technicians, are five times more likely to develop multiple myeloma than the general public. And then there was Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis, a client for whom he did hair and frequently applied hair dye. Ms. Kennedy died too young from Non-Hodgkin's lymphoma cancer. Her doctors have stated publicly they believe her hair dye probably contributed to causing her cancer. These experiences, and many others, were epiphanies for Peter. They created a personal awareness of the frightening reality that many common products especially health and beauty products which we all apply to our hair, skin, teeth and bodies -- can have devastating consequences for our long-term health. Equally alarming, he discovered that little regulation exists in the beauty industry, and that many of the products on the shelf of your local department store, beauty salon or supermarket contain irritating and harmful ingredients, even known carcinogens. Peter Lamas Products - Taking a Different ApproachIt is with this hard-learned perspective and a drive to research all he could about health, beauty and ingredients that he founded Peter Lamas Products. Although they remain motivated to keep up on the latest beauty and fashion trends, they are even more adamant about remaining aware of the latest scientific issues surrounding beauty ingredients and safety. Peter Lamas strives to stay ahead of the curve, using the most innovative technologies the industry has to offer. Their aim is to create high performance products to deliver stunning results that last - and that support a healthy life and lifestyle. Since the inception of Peter Lamas Products, they have been vegan -- they have never used animal by-products or animal testing. Their hair care line was one of the first ever to be paraben-free and sodium lauryl sulphate-free. All of their products are paraben and petrochemical-free. Each product uses a synergy of exotic extracts, powerful botanicals and potent herbs to enhance all skin and hair types. Their company is committed to offering natural and organic products that are free of harmful chemicals and perform to a professional standard. Peter Lamas unites nature and healthy science for effective products that deliver on their promise. About Peter LamasCuban born Peter Lamas immigrated to New York City in 1961 at the age of 17. His parents had arrived in the Big Apple only a few months earlier, having fled Fidel Castro's repressive regime. Peter, making the best of his situation, decided to continue his studies of commercial art, photography and art in the United States. At the suggestion of a friend who was a hair stylist, he decided to finance his education by doing hair and makeup part-time. As a result, he discovered he not only had a flair for doing hair and makeup, but truly enjoyed helping each client look her/his best. After he earned his license in cosmetology, Peter interviewed with the two most important and influential names in the beauty industry: Vidal Sassoon, who revolutionized the way women's hair was cut and styled at that time; and Kenneth (one of the first "single name" celebrities), whose renowned talents attracted the celebrities of the day to his extremely elegant townhouse salon. Although both houses offered him a position, he chose Vidal Sassoon for its reputation for intensive, hands-on training. And, this training was under the direction of Paul Mitchell - a name now behind its own collection of hair care products. Peter worked for three years at Sassoon and when Kenneth made him an offer, he accepted. This was his chance to broaden his horizons, building on the training he already had. The legendary Kenneth Salon Townhouse in mid-Manhattan drew not only Hollywood celebrities, but many of the leading figures in the recording industry, society and the arts. During these very happy years with Kenneth, Peter's clients included Grace Kelly, Elizabeth Taylor, Audrey Hepburn, Diana Ross, Jacqueline Kennedy, Gloria Vanderbilt and Faye Dunaway…to name just a few. While Kenneth Salon also sold a makeup collection under its own name, Peter soon gained a reputation for makeup wizardry by combining his talents for art and color to create perfect beauty images for his clients. He would design make-overs for celebrities, or completely "re-do" a woman with a new hairstyle and make-up that made the most of her natural beauty assets, for everyday life Paul Mitchell eventually re-entered Peter's life, when he asked him to become his right hand man at the Henri Bendel Salon on 57th Street in Manhattan. Bendel's was the most exciting and innovative of the fashion specialty stores in New York and had pioneered many new retail concepts, such as small boutiques, an Avenue of Shops, and an extremely fashionable Beauty Salon…all under one, very chic roof. The association with Paul Mitchell brought Peter invaluable experience in supervising, promoting, and managing a beauty business. The alliance also gave him the opportunity to work with great names in the fashion/beauty photography: Richard Avedon, Irving Penn, and Francesco Scavullo (best known for his Cosmopolitan magazine covers and celebrity portraits). Peter was in demand to do hair/makeup for editorial photo shoots at Vogue, Harper's Bazaar, Glamour and Mademoiselle, as well as magazine cover work and national print advertising. As his experience working with supermodels grew, Peter began doing runway work for well known fashion houses both in the United States and Europe. The hair and makeup he created for the models became the finishing touches to their spring and fall collections, and it wasn't long before "Peter Lamas" became a recognized name in the industry. In the mid 70's, with several years of experience under his belt, Peter decided it was time to branch out on his own. He put all of his beauty and business expertise to good use in the launching of his own salon: "The Reapers." This shop was truly a unique creation, and attracted a very young, upscale clientele of fashion conscious women and men. "The Reapers" was on the cutting edge of fashion and beauty…and was known for stylish cuts that were not only flattering for each individual client, but easy to maintain. "The Reapers" became so popular, it was extended to three locations in Manhattan: the Upper East Side, the West Side, and the Wall Street area. With a strong commitment to his clients' complete beauty needs, Peter embarked on the launch of cosmetics, skin and hair care products that would be sold exclusively in his salons under "The Reapers" name. Creating this collection gave him the experience he needed to develop formulations, colors and application techniques in beauty and skin care. It also gave him the opportunity to work closely with his laboratories and chemists to create formulas for beauty products that perform as promised. As a result of personal experiences relating to family, close friends and clients, Peter became acutely aware of the scary reality that many common beauty products - including and especially health and beauty products which we apply to our hair, skin, teeth and bodies - contain known carcinogens or potential carcinogens, and can have devastating consequences for our long-term health. With a drive to research all he could about health, beauty and ingredients, Peter founded Peter Lamas Products, with the overriding mission to deliver high-performance beauty products that contain healthy, natural ingredients, free of harmful chemicals. Peter is very passionate about educating consumers regarding the myths and facts of the beauty industry, having written books on the subject and often a featured guest speaker.

Wilshire Homes' new model home in Leander's Carneros Ranch community is an entrancing example of what can be accomplished when imaginative architecture combines with the latest design trends.
The model, located at 200 Tinto Street, is the builder's PecanHill design featuring a stone-and-stucco elevation, high ceilings and an optional second-story bonus room. Wilshire has won many awards for architectural detailing such as arches, niches, columns and plant shelves, and they are all on display in the home. A particularly striking effect is created by triple arches dividing the family room from the elegant dining room. In addition to hardwood floors, the dining room is enhanced by a gorgeous coffered ceiling. The spacious family room is anchored by a massive floor-to-ceiling stone fireplace situated in a corner near a wall of windows offering backyard vistas.
Another stunning architectural feature is the jewel-like breakfast room, where owners can sip coffee while basking in the morning light streaming through adjacent box windows. Some of the hottest design trends are found in the kitchen where owners will delight in a furniture-grade stone island capped with a granite countertop. Maple hardwood cabinets provide warmth and plenty of storage space. Whirlpool® stainless steel appliances offer energy-saving features.
The model also showcases areas dedicated to work and play. A handsome study featuring exposed beams can flex into a bedroom or a home gym. The bonus room is outfitted as a game room in the model, but an option to turn it into a bedroom with an en suite bath is available. The owners retreat is another place to relax with oversized windows and a well-appointed bath. The spa-like room offers a garden tub and a semi-frameless glass shower. A built-in linen cupboard means owners won't have to store towels in the walk-in closet.
The model is just one of 10 designs available to home buyers in Carneros Ranch. The one- and two-story homes range from 1,844 to 3,402 square feet and are priced from the $260,000s. Wooded and cul-de-sac homesites are available.
Residents of Carneros Ranch enjoy relaxed country living where fishing aficionados can drop a line at nearby Devine Lake Park and the family can play Frisbee golf in Benbrook Ranch Park. Closer to home, a planned amenity center featuring a junior Olympic-size pool, a children's pool, cabana and playscape area will provide hours of entertainment.
Easy access to Highway 183/183-A and Lakeline Boulevard means shopping, dining and entertainment destinations are only a short drive away. The nearby Capitol Metro Leander Station makes commuting a breeze. Young students attend schools in the Leander Independent School District.

Screen Savers: Hollywood Beauty Secrets
Halloween is just days away! But if you're still clueless over what costume you'll don, don't fret: A bold makeup look can eliminate the stress of pulling together clothes and accessories at the last minute. Here, we show you how to morph into Jem, Cleopatra, and Lucy Ricardo—Holograms, Mark Antony, and Ricky optional.
"Map out the shape that you want around the eyes using Scotch Tape—it enables you to achieve really perfected lines," says Keri Blair, M.A.C Pro senior artist, pictured here. The best part? If you accidentally slather color outside the lines, it will land on the tape instead of your skin.
To impart a bright-pink hue, try a multipurpose makeup stick. "If you don't have any creamy product handy, you can use a lipstick," says Blair. "Normally, I don't recommend using lipstick on the eye area but it works. Just be careful around the eye line."

Bruce and Glen Proctor are identical twin brothers who grew up in Washington DC. Their drug addicted father was gone most of the time, often in and out of jail. When he was home he worked construction jobs but their mother had to accompany him on payday to make sure that she had money for rent. Even so, she struggled to make ends meet, often borrowing from relatives, and even their older sister helped by holding down a job. The boys soon made up their minds that they didn't want to struggle the way their parents had.
In the fall of 2001, their junior year at Woodrow Wilson High School, the boys enrolled in NFTE. As part of that class they launched "Twin Sports", with which they accessorized the heads of one third of the school population with their uniquely designed head bands and hats. They won their NFTE class, region-wide, and national competitions, and earned a total of over $10,000 in two years. Most importantly, they walked away from that class feeling self-sufficient, and knowing that they could continue to feel that way if they continued to work together. They paid for their college tuition, and now are co-owners of BruceGlen.
Before taking NFTE, Bruce and Glen were extremely shy and having to present their business plan was great for building their confidence. Learning to think with the entrepreneurial mindset has affected every area of their lives. "Once bitten by the entrepreneurship bug, the passion and spirit works its way into everything one day. It's a leaders' spirit and a fighting attitude."

HOUSTON - A fan cheering on the Houston Texans Sunday got more of a stadium experience than he bargained for when part of a sign fell into the stands.
The frightening incident happened just before halftime during the Texans' first game of the season.
"It was scary, nobody knew what was happening," said Sharon Baker, who was sitting in the end zone section of Reliant Stadium. "The Texans were coming down here and everybody was getting ready to yell and we heard a huge noise, saw this huge metal thing bounce off this guy's head."
Officials with Reliant Park told Local 2 part of a panel around an LED sign loosened and fell into the crowd. Reliant officials don't yet know how the piece was loosened.
"Just fell right down on his head, caught one guy pretty bad, he was bleeding pretty good down his face," said Larry Peters, another fan sitting in the same section. "I've seen a few things fall but that's the first time I've ever seen anything like that fall."
The name of the man who was injured has not yet been released. Reliant officials said he was transported to a hospital by one of the ambulances placed on stand-by at all Texans games.

NSW Premier Barry O'Farrell has denied hunters will be allowed to use silencers on guns when shooting feral animals in the state's national parks.
Fairfax Media reported the proposal, which was leaked in a draft assessment report, would require loosening the state's prohibition on silencers, a ban designed to stop them falling into criminal hands.
But Mr O'Farrell has rubbished the report.
"There will be no change to the regulation of silencers to allow for the operation of pest eradication measures in national parks," the premier said in a statement.
National Parks Association of NSW campaign coordinator Justin McKee has said silencers were a safety risk as they removed people's awareness that hunting was taking place nearby.
From May, 77 national parks and reserves will be open to amateur hunting of feral animals.
The Public Service Association, which represents park rangers, called on Mr O'Farrell to release maps of all proposed "Zone C" unsupervised hunting areas.
"Rangers are anxious to know which parts of their parks will be opened to unaccompanied hunters, as reports emerge that ... rangers will be protected by nothing more than a high-vis vest," PSA General Secretary Anne Gardiner said in a statement.
Rangers had been told most of the total national park land opened to amateur hunters would be Zone C, Ms Gardiner said.
"The community has not received a definitive list of which national parks will include unsupervised hunting and where exactly these unrestricted hunting zones will be located," she said.
Opposition environment spokesman Luke Foley said the fact silencers were considered in the draft risk assessment report proved the hunting program had become a farce.
"There's one simple solution here, Mr O'Farrell can abandon this very bad policy of opening our national parks to amateur hunters," Mr Foley told reporters in Sydney on Tuesday.
He said the report also confirms Environment Minister Robyn Parker is "not up to the job" of managing the rollout of the program.
Mr Foley repeated opposition calls for Mr O'Farrell to take personal responsibility for the policy and commit to resigning if any person is shot by an amateur hunter in a NSW national park.
An employee at the company operating the balloon said the tourists were from Korea, Japan and Britain, as well as one Egyptian.
"This is terrible, just terrible," an employee told AFP, declining to give her name.
"We don't yet know what happened exactly or what went wrong."
The balloon which was carrying 21 people was flying at 300m over Qurna, in Luxor's West Bank, when it caught fire before exploding, a security official said.
Two survivors, including the balloon's pilot, have been taken to hospital, he said.

DETROIT - Detroit police say a 3-year-old girl is dead and several other people are hurt after a car that was reportedly speeding crashed into a parked vehicle.
The crash happened Sunday on the city's west side, near Wildemere and Thatcher streets.
Police said the 21-year-old driver of a Chrysler Sebring was going well above the speed limit through a neighborhood when he lost control and slammed into the parked car, also hitting a tree.
Inside the car with him were five others.
The 3-year-old, Samyrah Leonard, was killed.
A 9-month-old boy and a 11-year-old boy are in critical condition.
A 14-year-old girl, a 19-year-old woman and the driver were also seriously hurt.
Police said it doesn't appear most of the children were wearing seat belts or were in car seats.
Police said alcohol and drugs are not considered factors in the crash, but speed is.
Police said the driver had only been licensed for about a month before the crash.
Britney Cross owns the parked car that was hit.
She said she was at church when the crash happened and is sending up prayers for the family who has lost their little girl.
"I'm blessed that I wasn't in the car or family members weren't in the car. It's just a vehicle that can be replaced," Cross said.
Minister Mary Edwards was one of many who have been trying to comfort the family.
"I stopped because I want to see if there was something I can do to bring comfort to the family," Edwards said.
It's not clear yet if the driver will be charged.

Recipe Find: Readers share brisket recipe from H-E-B
Updated 10:56 am, Saturday, April 27, 2013
Readers came through with a recipe after I came up empty handed.
Teresa Alston had written in search of a recipe for Cindy's Oven Brisket that H-E-B had published in a calendar with monthly recipes, likely in the late '90s. She called it "the easiest and best-tasting brisket recipe I've ever tried."
She recalled many of the ingredients but not the measurements. When I couldn't find the recipe, I put out a call to readers, and Peggy Knox, Cindy Harris, Katherine Bless, Mary Ann Landers, Susan McBee, Virginia Hightower and Maria Ortiz came through with the exact recipe requested.
Food & Drink Channel
With her recipe cut directly from the 1998 calendar, Harris says, "I save my old calendars so I can remember what was happening on whatever day in the past, or just in case I forget to transfer a birthday or any special date on the new calendar. ... Nothing like having the original, eh?
"I had to laugh when I saw the reverse side! 'Pick Up Pants' on Friday the 13th! Must have been the last time I used the dry cleaners!
"Ms. Alston will be so thrilled to get her recipe! Glad I could help!"
McBee says, "The minute I read your column yesterday I knew I had the right brisket recipe! I could just visualize it in my recipe book of 'Keepers' and sure enough there it was — just as described: cut out from an H-E-B calendar, year unknown. I have attached a copy of the original (along with the comment of 'excellent' that I wrote on there at the time). ... I haven't made it in forever, but it had to have been good to make it into my Keepers! I'm going to make it this week!"
As I learned from other readers, in addition to running in the calendar, the recipe also was published on Page 163 of the H-E-B cookbook, "Texas Favorites: A Collection of Family Recipes, Volume 2." On that page, the recipe is described as "Wonderful, tender and most delicious" and was noted to have come from Dorothy Hall of Buda.
Thanks to all who helped with this request and gave Alston, and the rest of us, a great brisket recipe to add to our collection.

1830 U.S. Census
This article originally appeared in "Census Records" by Loretto Dennis Szucs and Matthew Wright in The Source: A Guidebook to American Genealogy
The 1830 census began on 1 June 1830. The enumeration was to be completed within six months but was extended to allow completion within twelve months. The official census population count was 12,860,702.
Questions Asked in the 1830 Census
The 1830 census form called for the name of the head of household; the number of free white males and females in age categories 0 to 5, 5 to 10, 10 to 15, 15 to 20, 20 to 30, 30 to 40, 40 to 50, 50 to 60, 60 to 70, 70 to 80, 80 to 90, 90 to 100, over 100; the number of slaves and free "colored" persons in age categories; there were also categories for deaf, dumb, and blind persons, and aliens; the town or district; and the county of residence.
Other Significant Facts about the 1830 Census
The 1830 census was the first for which the government provided uniform, printed forms to enumerators for the purpose of recording answers to census questions.
Research Tips for the 1830 Census
The 1830 census records are useful for identifying localities to search for other types of records for a named individual. The 1830 census will, in most cases, help distinguish the target family from others of the same name; help to determine family size; locate possible relatives with the same name; identify immediate neighbors who may be related; identify slaveholders; and spot spelling variations of surnames. Free men "of color" are listed as heads of household by name. Slaves appear in age groupings by name of owner. By combining those age groupings with probate inventories and tax list data, it is sometimes possible to determine names of other family members and the birth order of those individuals.
The 1830 census went a step further in breaking down ages, thus allowing more precise knowledge of the household configuration. With the age categories expanded to include those one hundred years and older, it is possible to have a better idea of life spans during that time period. The addition of information regarding those who were deaf, dumb, and blind is an indication that there may be related guardianship or institutional records. The presence of aliens in a household suggests the possibility that those individuals may eventually have been naturalized in a nearby court.
For a state-by-state listing of census schedules, see The 1790–1890 Federal Population Censuses: Catalog of National Archives Microfilm. For boundary changes and identification of missing census schedules, see Thorndale's and Dollarhide's Map Guide to the U.S. Federal Censuses, 1790–1920.

Braves' Simmons settling in at plate
Shortstop prospect recovers from rocky start, plates four runs
By Sam Dykstra / Special to MLB.com | April 22, 2012 6:35 PM ET
Heading into Sunday, MLB.com's No. 64 prospect was hitting .234 (11-for-47) with one extra-base hit and one RBI in his first 11 games for Double-A Mississippi. Over his last five games, he was 2-for-21.
A more relaxed approach at the plate helped Simmons pick up two hits and drive in four runs as the Braves beat the Birmingham Barons, 5-2, in 10 innings.
Two of those RBIs came in the top of the 10th when Simmons singled home Barrett Kleinknecht and Todd Cunningham. His two-run double in the sixth lifted Mississippi into a 2-2 tie.
"I was trying to slow the game down out there today," Simmons said. "I felt uncomfortable at the plate the last couple games, so I talked to the coaches and they just told me to simplify the game, to be myself again up there. That seemed to help today."
The early-season struggles of the Braves' No. 3 prospect's after a year in which he hit a Carolina League-leading .311 with 52 RBIs in 131 games for Class A Advanced Lynchburg. Simmons hit just one homer, but his 35 doubles and six triples ranked second and fifth, respectively.
A self-described "base-hit hitter," the 22-year-old shortstop has climbed the prospect rankings, thanks to his prowess with the glove. At Spring Training, he battled with Braves' No. 7 prospect Tyler Pastornicky for the Major League starting job. The competition stretched into the final week of March before the Braves announced they were going with Pastornicky and assigning Simmons to Double-A.
The Curacao native, who was taken in the second round of the 2010 Draft as a pitcher, acknowledged the demotion was expected. His time in camp was a learning experience as he spent more than a month among big leaguers.
"It opened my eyes to the differences between Minor League and Major League pitching," Simmons said. "The pitchers are smarter up there. If they see you jump on a fastball, maybe they'll tease you with a fastball inside or throw something off-speed to throw you off. They adjust much better than the Minor League guys. It was nice to get a taste for how it works up there and, hopefully, that's something I can take along with me this year."
Braves No. 6 prospect Sean Gilmartin lasted a season-high eight innings and allowed two runs on six hits for his third quality start in four outings. Andrew Russell (1-0) struck out the only batter he faced for the win and Mark Lamm tossed his sixth consecutive scoreless frame in the 10th for his third save.
Cunningham, Atlanta's No. 17 prospect, went 3-for-5 out of the leadoff spot.
Simon Castro, the White Sox's No. 8 prospect, also went eight innings and gave up two runs on five hits and a walk while striking out six for the Barons. No. 9 prospect Tyler Saladino went 2-for-5 and was the only Birmingham player with a multi-hit effort.

Cards rout Brewers to force tie atop Central
Wainwright cruises to 12th win and series victory in Milwaukee
MILWAUKEE -- With one game remaining before the All-Star break, the Cardinals finally have ended the Brewers' stranglehold on the National League Central lead.
By virtue of Saturday afternoon's 10-2 victory, the Cardinals moved into a first-place tie with the Brewers. Milwaukee, which has had sole possession of the top spot since April 9, continues to falter, losing its seventh in a row and 11th of its last 12.
"This is a funny game of ups and downs," All-Star pitcher Adam Wainwright said. "The teams that have the most ups and the least amount of downs end up winning the whole thing. Inevitably, you're going to have both."
Wainwright remained dominant on the mound. He picked up his 12th win of the season, tying him with Cincinnati's Alfredo Simon and the New York Yankees' Masahiro Tanaka for the Major League lead. Wainwright hadn't given up a run for 19 1/3 innings, covering three starts, until surrendering back-to-back doubles to Jeff Bianchi and pinch-hitter Lyle Overbay in the fifth. He gave up two runs and five hits over seven innings.
"It's just been so fun to watch him pitch," manager Mike Matheny said. "The different styles he'll make up depending on what he has that day."
The Cardinals jumped on Brewers pitching prospect Jimmy Nelson for three runs in the first inning and never looked back. The Brewers summoned Nelson to replace the struggling Marco Estrada in the starting rotation. Prior to his promotion, Nelson was leading the Pacific Coast League in ERA (1.46) and strikeouts (114) and was tied for the league lead in wins (10).
Kolten Wong, who had faced Nelson in Triple-A, had praise for the Brewers' pitcher despite the rough outing on Saturday.
"I told everybody he's a really good pitcher," Wong said. "He's one of the best I've seen down in Triple-A."
Jhonny Peralta's run-scoring single put the Cardinals up, 1-0, in the first. The Cardinals benefited from a fielding error by Brewers second baseman Scooter Gennett with two outs in the inning. Tony Cruz followed with a single that drove in two.
Matt Carpenter drew a two-out walk in the second and Wong followed with his sixth home run of the season. Wong has homered in five of seven games since returning from the disabled list on Sunday.
"I definitely don't try for the home runs. I just try to put a good swing on it," Wong said.
Matheny said Wong's success stems from a good approach at the plate.
"When he sets to swing, you don't see a lot of half swings. When he decides to the pull the trigger, he pulls it," Matheny said. "The bat speed is what will result in the ball jumping out of the park, not necessarily lifting it."
Cruz, who has been starting at catcher with Yadier Molina on the disabled list, drove in another run in the third with a double.
"He did a nice job behind the plate. He and Adam work great together," Matheny said. "The offense is a nice added bonus."
Hitting isn't Cruz's top priority.
"For me, handling the staff is always No. 1. I just try to step in there and do what I can at the plate," he said.

Banks in the quake-affected north-east of Japan will soon be able to borrow longer term from a new scheme worth ¥1,000bn ($11.7bn), offering one-year loans at 0.1 per cent.
The scheme comes on top of ¥21,800bn ($265bn) liquidity made available immediately after the quake and a doubling of the Bank's asset purchase programme from ¥5,000bn to ¥10,000bn ($121bn). Tokyo has also been involved in an internationally co-ordinated effort to prevent the yen appreciating too sharply. So far, though, the BoJ remains unwilling to buy government bonds, a measure adopted in several other countries since the crisis.
In addition to such measures, at today's meeting, the Bank judged it necessary to introduce a funds-supplying operation that provides financial institutions in disaster areas with longer-term funds in order to support their initial response efforts to meet the future demand for funds for restoration and rebuilding.


text: PORTLAND, Ore. ( TheStreet) -- If the NFL's television blackouts are supposed to help the live-game experience compete with television, they're not working. When they're reduced to a means of extorting cash and concession from fans, however, they're a tremendous success. The NFL kept 15 games off television in their home markets this year. That's down from 16 last year and 26 in 2010, but is still impressive after the NFL tweaked its blackout policy this summer to allow teams to declare a sellout and keep games on the air once ticket sales hit 85% of their home stadium's capacity. Under the old rule, which dates back to an act of Congress in 1961, home games couldn't be shown on TV stations that broadcast within a 75-mile radius of the stadium if non-premium tickets weren't completely sold out 72 hours before kickoff. That switch wasn't mandatory, however, and it was up to the teams' owners to decide if they wanted to adopt that 85% threshold and pay a greater percentage of ticket revenue to opposing teams as a result. The Tampa Bay Buccaneers jumped at the chance in July and lowered ticket prices after blacking out 13 of their past 15 home games. The Oakland Raiders, Miami Dolphins and Minnesota Vikings also joined in, but that didn't prevent two of those four teams from blacking out games this season. The official NFL line is that the blackouts are in place to goose attendance. NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell did his best to bolster that claim in November, blaming high-definition broadcasts of games for the league's attendance woes in certain markets. "One of our biggest challenges in the league is the experience at home," Goodell said. "HD is only going to get better." The context of that comment, though, was a private meeting with 550 Atlanta Falcons fans discussing whether the team needed to replace its current home. The Georgia Dome, mind you, was built only 21 years ago with $214 million taxpayer money and just got $300 million in renovations in 2007 and 2008. Goodell went on to talk about improving fan safety, scoreboards and technology at NFL events as well as improving the in-game experience on mobile devices. Falcons owner Arthur Blank then lowered the boom:

HOUSTON - A man was stabbed to death and left on a southeast Houston sidewalk Monday.
According to officials, the 48-year-old man's body was found in the 5400 block of Telephone Road and Gillen Street around 2 a.m. Witnesses said the killer beat the victim until he was motionless.
Detectives are trying to figure out what triggered the attack in front of a seafood restaurant. Robbery may have been a motive, officials said.
Police said they were talking to witnesses to get a description of the suspect, as well as information on the crime.
"[He's only] described as a Hispanic male, 5 feet 6 inches, 130 pounds. The suspect got off the victim and and ran around this Payless store," said J.R. Johnston with the Houston Police Department.
A witness said he saw the attack and honked his horn to try and scare the suspect away, but it was too late.
Detectives said they would review surveillance camera video, although it was dark at the time of the killing.
The victim's name has not been released.
Anyone with information is asked to call the HPD Homicide Division at 713-308-3600 or Crime Stoppers at 713-222-TIPS.

buy it now or visit pattern website
The Undulating Waves Scarf was my first foray into designing with beads. It is based on a lace pattern that has lace stitches on both the knit and purl sides of the fabric. This allows the beads to float on the yarn-overs. Although I have marked this pattern as advanced, you will find that, with practice and perseverance, the pattern becomes quite easy! There is a KAL in the Schaefer Yarn Group on Ravelry that has excellent support and pictures.
You can make the scarf wider or longer and still have yarn left over!
Identical to #334H; the same .PDF download is available for each version with instructions for each yarn type.

The way I would best describe this book is it's the "ultimate snippet guide to guitar". I'm torn on this one. It's almost like the author has tried hard to improve on the classic Guitar Handbook by Ralph Denyer but failed miserably, probably because of restrictions and guidelines imposed by the publisher.

By now, you've hopefully heard about the 2012 Longwood Graduate Symposium, which is quickly approaching. Held on Friday, March 2nd at Longwood Gardens, "The Panda and the Public Garden: Reimagining our Conservation Story" is sure to shed new light on how public gardens (and zoos, aquarium, parks, and museums!) can inspire their audiences to advocate for conservation issues.
Our keynote speaker, Jerry Borin, served as the executive director of the Columbus Zoo and Aquarium for sixteen years. During his tenure, Mr. Borin transformed nearly every aspect of the zoo, galvanized community support for global conservation issues, and cultivated a complete visitor experience. The keynote address will examine how zoos have developed into centers for wildlife conservation through international collaboration, effective messaging, and experiential display.
Dr. Alistair Griffiths will be arriving from the Eden Project in Cornwall, UK, to analyze creating a public garden around an environmentalism message. Dr. Griffiths is the Horticultural Science Curator at the Eden Project, and will use the case study of commercializing a critically endangered impatiens to build awareness for conservation of Seychelles flora.
John Gwynne melds plant and animal conservation expertise. Speaking with twenty years of experience with integrated design for conservation messaging at the Bronx Zoo, Mr. Gwynne will examine marketing environmental issues to the typical visitor. He will also explore living museums in the US, and their connections to his international conservation endeavors.
Catherine Hubbard comes to us from the Albuquerque BioPark, which includes a zoo, aquarium, botanic garden, and park. She has over 30 years experience working in both zoos and gardens and will discuss conservation strategies currently employed by American zoo and aquarium facilities.
Kathleen F. Wagner has more than 30 year's experience, including time at the Philadelphia Zoo and independent consulting with zoos, museums, botanical gardens, interpretive centers, and aquariums throughout the country. She will bring her experience together to show that successful conservation is about great storytelling and helping people connect the dots. Message relevance and effective evaluation techniques will be discussed.
If successful conservation is all about great storytelling, we need to learn how to tell better stories! To help us do that, we invited Sally O'Byrne and Andrew Losowsky. Sally O'Byrne, President of the Delmarva Ornithological Society and board member of Hawk Mountain Sanctuary and the Delaware Nature Society, will share the significance of conservation messaging through the art of storytelling. Andrew Losowsky, award winning journalist, playwright, content curator, thinker, and Books Editor of the Huffington Post, will dramatically explain what makes a story compelling.
Don't forget to register soon! Please visit the 2012 Longwood Graduate Symposium Website for more information.

PRETIUMQUE et Causa Laboris: The prize and the cause of our labour.
It is a motto that the town of Burnley and its football club have come to live by down the years and one that Sean Dyche, their promotion winning manager, adopted from day one.
"Minimum requirement, maximum effort"; "Sweat on the shirt"; "One-club mentality" were popular phrases that were introduced immediately after his appointment, and ones that both players and people identified with, repeated with regularity to become almost subliminal.
Dyche knew hard work would be appreciated, yet few – not even the manager himself – could have predicted how quickly it would be rewarded just 18 months on.
But after putting his own stamp on the squad with a canny summer recruitment programme something clicked in pre-season and carried on into the campaign, resulting in this remarkable, relentless, record-breaking season that has mixed graft with guile.
Not even losing top scoring striker Charlie Austin less than 48 hours before a competitive ball was kicked made them lose momentum.
While the outside world had the Clarets written off for relegation, questioning where the goals would come from, in-house it galavanised them and brought together the most powerful attacking partnership outside of the Premier League. Sam Vokes and top scorer Danny Ings – the Football League's Championship player of the year – deserve their place there next season.
But the same goes for Burnley's brilliant 'band of brothers'.
From goalkeeper Tom Heaton to star striker Ings bonds, have been formed at this proud family club, a tantalising togetherness that has bridged the gap between the fans and the footballers.
Partnerships have been prominent all over the pitch, and not just up front. But 'V-Ings' versus Liverpool's 'SAS' of Sturridge and Suarez is a mouth-watering concept that will transform Turf Moor into Turf Roar.
Dyche has been the orchestrator of the bright lights of the Premier League illuminating this corner of East Lancashire once more.
He declared promotion an 'historic' achievement in English football, given the small size of his squad, the limited resources, the least players used.

So is this Blackwater part 2?
"It's similar," Prince replied. "But we're not here to serve government or defence projects, we're not there to build their police force, nothing like that. We're there to move an NGO, an advanced seismic crew or a drilling crew from a mining company, or if an oil operation needs their camp supported and built."
The story of Erik Prince starting Frontier Resource Group and focusing on Africa is not new and I have blogged about that when it first came out. But what was missing were the details, or at least more than what was available at the time I posted that stuff. Thanks to the Civilian Warriors book and all the interviews, Prince has been able to talk a little more about this new venture.
So in the articles below, there are some great little details to pluck out and talk about. The first one that I thought was interesting, was the 'a ha' moment for Prince as to what area of business he wanted to get into in Africa.
Prince, who has flown since he was 16, said he realised the potential of operating a safe and reliable air service a year ago when the aircraft which was flying him back from a mine site in Burkina Faso nearly crashed.
"A scary moment but also one of clarity," he said.
I mentioned in my review of his book that he is an entrepreneur and businessman, and he constantly looks at the world through this lens. His 'a ha' moment for the creation of Blackwater came from the realization that he needed to be home with his family, and the SEALs and other groups needed a consolidated, all in one training facility. So he identified a market weakness that he could exploit, and also saw the advantage for his personal well being.
He is also a pilot and has had a love for aircraft since he was younger. In his book, he was very proud of all the aviation ventures that BW got into, so this move towards aviation and logistics in Africa makes sense.
The other tidbit is the quote up top and what was directly asked in regards to security work. He was asked by the WSJ on whether this new venture would include armed security work or not? Here is the quote.
Such high costs also reflect the dangers of piracy and civil conflict, but Mr. Prince plays down his firm's plans in the security realm. "We are not there to provide military training. We are not there to provide security per se. Most of that security"—say, if an oil pipeline or mining camp needs protection—"would be done by whatever local services are there," including police and private firms. "We don't envision setting up a whole bunch of local guard services around the continent."
So the former Blackwater chief won't employ guys with guns? Well, he says, "that would be the exception, certainly not the rule."
I should remind the reader that Prince could easily contract the services of other security firms to help in security. That would mean using Academi or any of the offshoots of his older company. But like he mentioned in the quote, using local police or security firms is more than likely the path, which is already what most Chinese investors and companies are doing.
Although the problem with this arrangement is if those local forces are dependable? Can they deliver services on time and under budget, or is it even a good service? Can they provide high level PSD services for the engineers and workers for those companies? That is where PMSC's like Blackwater would come in. Also, someone needs to manage those local forces, or look out for the best interest of the client.
I am quickly reminded of the In Amenas gas plant attack in Algeria and how depending upon incompetent local security forces (provided by the government) was a contributing reason why the attack was so successful. You must have a competent security company watching over the local security force that companies are either forced to use, or use because of cost and choice. I look at it from a concentric rings of security view point, and your outer layer should be your least dependable force and your final ring of security should be your most dependable. Ideally all rings are dependable in a perfect world, but that just does not happen in the real world. Another way to put it, is you need security you can 'trust'.
But back to the articles below, I think this quote speaks pretty loudly as to why dependable and highly capable services are in such high demand in Africa.
"If you're drilling in some remote area and your rig goes down and you need a new part for your rig; that's 10s if not 100s of thousands of dollars a day. How do you get that thing quickly and with no excuses?"
Time is money as they say, and guys like Prince can absolutely organize an effort to get that part or human out there.
This also reminds me of another potential problem for companies. What if their equipment gets caught up in a mess like what the Arab Spring has created in the Middle East? For that, a guy like Prince could organize the effort to secure equipment and people until it can be either flown out or convoyed out of that mess. Those types of contracts remind me of what helped put Executive Outcomes on the map.
I am talking about the Ranger Oil contract that Executive Outcomes had in Angola. Basically things became unstable there and Heritage Oil and Gas turned to EO to save some equipment caught up in the mess. At the time, they were leasing some drilling equipment that was costing over $20,000 a day, and UNITA would not allow the company to get the equipment out of there. EO was contracted to secure that equipment, which they did.
It is also important to note that the Chinese account for the largest group of people kidnapped in Africa. I have talked about this demand for protective services by the Chinese in the past, and how the South African PMSC market has been filling that niche. Lot's of money being spent on some risky projects–hence the need for security and folks who know what they are doing.
As long as we are talking about money, it is also interesting to pluck some of the quotes that discuss why Africa is so interesting to Prince. China is investing billions into development and resource extraction there.
Mr. Prince won't share any revenue projections, but his prospectus notes that "China is Africa's largest trading partner," with annual flows of $125 billion. Most estimates put that figure closer to $200 billion, a meteoric increase from $10 billion in 2000 and $1 billion in 1980. The U.S., which was Africa's top trade partner until 2009, registered $100 billion in annual African exchange at last count. China-Africa trade could reach $385 billion by 2015, according to Standard Chartered Bank.
Not only that, but the US is also delving more and more into Africa with it's military ventures. So Prince is basically gunning to be the logistics and transportation 'go to guy' for Africa. If US strategy includes getting more involved with Africa, it will need companies in place that can provide a need wherever it presents itself.
Although he does have some competition, because there are numerous larger companies that have already been working that angle in Africa. PMSC's in Somalia and their support of AMISOM are one example. There is still room though, and investors are looking for folks that they trust can do the job. That is a key point here, because Prince has shown capability in the past by making things happen, and putting his money where his mouth is. He spent over 100 million on new products and services when he owned BW, and much of it never reached fruition. But some did, and really paid off for him. I imagine he will do the same with this company. This quote shows why investors would be drawn to him and what has provoked Prince to get into this market in the first place.
"As I was moving around Asia trying to raise money for this private equity fund, a lot of the big investors said, 'It's great that you want to be a fund manager, but what we really need you to do is to build a business like you had before. Not a defence services business, but one that can help us operate in the challenging areas and take away a lot of the uncertainty'."
Pretty cool and I imagine he will apply the same mindset to this business as he did with BW. Research the region, find services that are lacking or non-existent but are needed, or see a coming need for a product or service, and create that service or product to meed those needs. That is how he built BW, and that is probably how he will build this company.
As to what kinds of aircraft he will purchase and bring to the market, who knows? If you look at the aircraft that AAR has (former Presidential Airways and BW business unit), you can get an idea as to the kind of aircraft Prince might introduce into the game. Here is a quick run down from wikipedia as to what they have used.
Presidential operates CASA C-212 and CASA CN-235 turboprops. Recent contracts have added de Havilland Canada DHC-8 Dash 8 turboprop aircraft to the fleet. The company also operates turbine powered helicopters including Bell 214ST, Bell 412, MD Helicopters MD-530, Eurocopter/Aerospatiale SA 330J "Puma", and Sikorsky S-61 rotorcraft.
The key for Prince is to invest in aircraft that can carry a lot, has robust fuel capacity, is durable, and can land on the really crappy air strips throughout Africa. The parts need to be cheap as well. I am sure he will find something that fits the bill. Either way, we will keep on eye on this. –Matt
Edit 04/02/2014: It looks like DVN (or it's new name Frontier Services Group Limited) has acquired another percentage of an airline that operates out of Wilson Airport. Here is a clip from the news story about it.
News broke yesterday in Nairobi that DVN had apparently acquired a 49 percent stake in Phoenix Aviation which is based at Wilson Airport in Nairobi and engages in aircraft charters and aircraft maintenance, among other aviation services. First it was Kijipwa Aviation, based in Kilifi, a relatively small aviation company, in which DVN acquired a 49 percent stake in late February, then announcing that they were to bring on line as many as two dozen additional aircraft to boost the operational capacity of the firm. However, the acquisition of a similar share in Phoenix may change those plans as suggestions have been floated already among the aviation fraternity at Wilson Airport that the operations of the two local airlines may be consolidated or aligned under one umbrella or at least they will be working under one central command. While DVN reportedly dished out some 1.2 billion Kenya shillings to acquire the 49 percent stake in Phoenix, no confirmed value could be obtained for the acquisition of the Kijipwa shares. Both investments have been linked to the discovery of significant oil deposits in Kenya and the apparent need of international oil exploration companies to contract a range of services from local Kenyan companies, including aviation.

Beyond Blackwater: Prince looks to resources in Africa
Sun, Feb 2 2014
By Stephen Eisenhammer
After running one of the world's biggest and most controversial private military groups, Blackwater founder Erik Prince is starting a new venture providing logistics for oil and mining companies in remote and dangerous parts of Africa.
China is increasingly looking to Africa to meet its ever growing demand for natural resources. Trade between the two reached an estimated $200 billion (121 billion pounds) this year. With 85 percent of Chinese imports from the continent being oil or minerals, Prince sees an opportunity.
He wants to use his experience of getting people and equipment in and out of remote places, where there is little or no infrastructure, to help companies looking to exploit abundant natural resources in places like Sudan or Somalia.
The 44-year-old former U.S. Navy Seal became chairman of Frontier Services Group (FSG) this month, a Hong Kong-listed company of which China's state-backed investment fund Citic owns 15 percent. Prince himself has share options in the firm that would convert to a 9 percent stake.

Cano's two homers help Yanks take care of Jays
Slugger's big game backs Phelps, who hurls career-best seven innings
NEW YORK -- Every day, the spotlight that follows the Yankees seems to be trained on the players who aren't with the team. But that changed Saturday, when Robinson Cano, the lone regular in an infield decimated by injuries, hit two home runs to lead New York to a 7-2 win over Toronto.
Cano, the only Yankees hitter this season to have a multihomer game, went deep twice off Toronto starter Brandon Morrow, accounting for four of New York's seven runs. Cano, a quarter of the way into the season, leads the Yankees in batting average (.295), home runs (12) and RBIs (31).
And while that production may not be surprising, the circumstances might qualify as a shock. Established stars like Mark Teixeira, Derek Jeter and Alex Rodriguez have yet to play a game this season, but Cano is batting .362 (34-for-94) with seven home runs as New York's No. 2 hitter.
"I'm glad that's not a moving part," said manager Joe Girardi. "Robbie's so important to us. Offensively, defensively, his presence in the lineup. He's not someone you can replace."
Cano also posted a multihomer game on April 8, and he's about a month ahead of the torrid pace he set last season. New York's second baseman set a personal best with 33 home runs last year, but he didn't hit No. 12 until June 17, when the Yankees were playing their 65th game of the season.
The Yankees used Cano as a No. 3 or cleanup hitter most of the time last season, but he's moved up higher in the batting order as a reaction to the team's patchwork lineup. Cano is batting .320 (49-for-153) in his last 37 games, and he leads the team in runs scored (25) and extra-base hits (23).
"Any place you put him, he's going to be successful. You can move him around," said Girardi. "He's done a nice job adjusting to the two-hole for us. He's got 31 RBIs, and he's hit second a lot for us. It doesn't really matter where he hits. He's going to get his numbers. And that really helps us out that he has that versatility. ... He makes everyone better around him. That's the type of player he is."
The first two innings passed uneventfully, and Cano helped give the Yankees a three-run edge in the third. Leadoff man Brett Gardner drove in the game's first run with a two-out single to center field, and Cano drove Morrow's very next pitch over the fence in right field.
Toronto (17-26) scored an isolated run in the fourth inning on a hit by Colby Rasmus, but Cano put the Yankees up by four runs an inning later. The four-time All-Star came up with one man on and two outs in the fifth, and he drove a Morrow pitch into the Yankees' bullpen in right-center field.
"That one, I think, was a slider," said Cano. "I chased two of them. ... He left one over the plate, and that's what you want. When they hang one over the plate, you want to be able to take advantage."
The Yankees (27-16) have taken two straight games from the Blue Jays, and starting pitcher David Phelps helped support Cano's star-turn. Phelps completed a career-best seven innings and allowed six hits, and he got Toronto to strand three key baserunners in scoring position.
For Phelps, one of the game's big moments came in the first inning. Phelps walked two batters and struck out two batters in the first, and he ended the inning with a pickoff at second base.
"The pickoff in the first was huge. I was able to settle down after that," said Phelps, who had eight strikeouts. "It was really good today where I'm able to throw backdoor to lefties and down and away to righties. ... I didn't have a great curveball and there weren't a lot of counts where you could throw a changeup today. We had to battle with what we had, and the slider ended up being really good."
The Blue Jays got a run on an Edwin Encarnacion homer in the top of the eighth inning, and designated hitter Travis Hafner answered with a two-run homer in the bottom half. Hafner had missed the previous five games due to inflammation in his right shoulder, and the homer provided a positive omen for New York.
"I thought he looked really good," said Girardi. "The first ball, he hit a bullet up the middle. He hit a homer foul. You can see there's a difference. The last couple weeks, he's been playing with a soreness in there. It just didn't seem to be the same lift. But it's back."
Cano, the rock of the Yankees' lineup, now has 12 career multihomer games, and he's providing the star power for an infield that includes journeyman shortstop Jayson Nix and rookie third baseman David Adams. Cano, a quiet player who prefers to guide by example, was asked Saturday if he's taken on more of a leadership role in recent weeks, and he answered simply and honestly.
"That's the kind of thing that's not in my mind right now," he said. "I just go out there and play the game. I want to be playing every day, and I just want to be able to help this team win games."

In Which We Catch Up With Katherine Chloe Cahoon, Musical Theater Savant & Flirting Expert
If you have been on this thing called The Internet for a few years, you might remember a lil' lady by the name of Katherine Chloe Cahoon. A few years ago, she published a book called The Single Girls' Guide To Meeting European Men. The inherent problems with that premise/milieu aside, Cahoon publicized her book with a series of absolutely ridiculous videos, wherein she offered "helpful" tips for dating while abroad. Stuff like: Travel to Octoberfest in Germany, because men like beer, and there's beer there, and even if you don't drink beer you can give the beers you don't like to men you want to woo. Because BEER!
After her extensive and mortifying rise to YouTube fame (seriously, I'm in a KCC K-hole right now), we kind of lost track of dear old Katherine. But not anymore! I'm sorry that I'm a few months late in bringing this to you, but I'd like to present Katherine Chloe Cahoon's first foray into the Classy Romantic Music Video (with High Kicks!) Genre, complete with ludicrous singing, dancing and facial expressions learned at the finest drama schools. As our friend Greg says, "It's the world's most elaborate Lasik commercial." For your enjoyment. [YouTube]

Mix all dry ingredients and cherries together in a large mixing bowl and set aside. Place the syrups and nut butter in a medium saucepan. Bring to a boil, stirring constantly. Reduce the flame to medium, and continue stirring for about 10 minutes until the mixture does not drip off the spoon easily.
Quickly pour the syrup mixture over the dry ingredients and mix well until all dry ingredients are evenly coated with the syrup. Take two 13" X 9" baking dishes and lightly moisten with water. Place half of the mixture in each dish. Moisten your ands with cold water and firmly press the grain mixture down evenly in the dishes until firm. Place in the freezer for 10 minutes to harden. Cut into bars or squares and enjoy!
The bars may be individually wrapped and kept in the freezer to store. Remove when ready to eat. They will thaw out quickly. Great for camping, hiking trips or just a nutritious snack anytime.
Variation: After mixing the syrup with the grain and seed mixture try baking them in a 350° oven for 3 to 5 minutes for a crispier treat thats similar to cracker jacks.
For those with allergies to nuts, roasted seeds can be substituted and nut butter may be omitted from the recipe.

Merchandising variables are fundamental to any successful retail web analytics implementation. Adam Greco has a great post about the technical details of how to set Merchandising variables (with great follow-up comments from our own Kevin Willeitner).
For this post, I wanted to back-up and give an overview of why merchandising variables are so important to retail merchants, and what insights you can get for site optimization.
Merchandising variables can be drive important insights into your customers' behavior. They can help answer key questions that you cannot get from any other internal reporting tools. For example:
- How much revenue is being driven by internal search vs. traditional browsing (or other methods)?
- What web categories are driving the most revenue? Top categories for a given product (if that product is shown in multiple categories)?
- What site features are customers using (e.g. zoom, alt views, size filters, refinements)?

Hey there, time traveller!
This article was published 19/4/2013 (1584 days ago), so information in it may no longer be current.
The Emerson border crossing and sections of I-29 in North Dakota could also be under water when the Red River rises next month, provincial officials said today.
The crossing at Gretna may also be closed.
Highway 75 will also be closed with flooding at Morris. A detour was in place for 36 days in 2009 and 44 days in 1997.
Most residents within the 18 ring-diked communities south of Winnipeg should still have road access as dikes are forecast to only partially close. They include Emerson, Gretna, Letellier, Rosenfeld, Dominion City, St. Jean Baptiste, Riverside, Rosenort, St-Pierre-Jolys, Aubigny, Morris, Roseau River, Lowe Farm, Ste. Agathe, Brunkild, St. Adolphe, Niverville and Grande Pointe.
The province said Thursday its planning for flooding to be one foot higher than it was during the last major flood along the Red River in 2009.
In 2009, 250 homes in the Red River valley were evacuated with 1,409 people registering with the Red Cross. There were also an additional 800 evacuees from Roseau River First Nation.
Provincial officials have an additional 1,800 properties in the Red River on a watch list of which some may need to evacuate if access roads are flooded. Evacuations, if they happen, will be staged so people will have warning and time to leave.
Community dikes are built to protect to two feet above the flood of 1997. Ring dikes and other forms of flood works protect 95 per cent of the homes, businesses and farms in the Red River Valley.
Outside the dikes, Manitoba Agriculture will help producers, railways and grain handlers to remove crops and feed are removed from low-lying, flood-prone areas. It will also help in moving farm equipment and material property to higher ground.
Spring road restrictions may be modified if necessary so producers can move their grain out of potential flood areas.
The province will also work with individual producers so plans are in place to move animals if necessary. and the Animal Evacuation Committee will work with other government departments and partner agencies to develop plans for evacuated companion animals.
The province's Winnipeg flood liaison office (204-945-2121) will be open from midnight to 9 p.m. daily starting April 22 for information on flood protection levels. Flood liaison offices in Brandon, Morris and Arborg will be open upon further notification. Fact sheets regarding readiness before during and after a flood are available on the provincial government's website at www.gov.mb.ca/flooding/index.html.
