Proposal Would Exempt New Hunters From Education
AUSTIN, Texas If you've ever had to turn down an invite to go hunting because you didn't have time to take a hunter education course or if someone you've asked to go hunting has had to back out for the same reason, there may soon be a solution.
The Texas Parks and Wildlife Department is proposing a temporary exemption from hunter education requirements.
"Although we offer about 4,400 hunter education courses a year, and at least one in every county in Texas, there may be occasions where a class isn't available in time," said Terry Erwin, TPWD hunter education coordinator. "We see this exemption as a way for people to enjoy an opportunity to go hunting."
The proposed exemption would allow an individual who purchases a Texas hunting license and is accompanied by a licensed hunter who is at least 17 years of age and already meets hunter education requirements to hunt for the remainder of the license year. The exemption would cost $10 and be offered one-time-only. The new hunter would also receive a $5 discount off the price of a hunter education course, which costs $10, but only if the course is taken prior to the end of the current license year.
The exemption would be available to out-of-state hunters as well as those in the military who are stationed in Texas or coming home on leave.
"Texas has the most flexible mandatory hunter education law in the nation and provides the most convenience in terms of alternative delivery methods," said Erwin. "It is consistently among the top three states in terms of certification and provides free, duplicate certificates upon request, dating back to 1972. This proposal gives Texas one more tool to attract persons into hunting and makes getting the training even more convenient."
Texas certifies more than 33,000 hunters annually through 4,400 hunter education courses offered across the state, with at least one offered in each of the 254 counties. The 10-hour program is offered in three formats: traditional classroom, home study and online.
"Although we offer the course throughout the year, there are times during the holidays when only a select number of courses may be available and that's typically the time of year when most people have an opportunity to go hunting," said Erwin. "This exemption will give folks time to enroll at a later date and still take advantage of an opportunity to go hunting."
The proposal is currently out for public comment, which may be made at any upcoming public hearing to be scheduled or online (http://tpwd.texas.gov/). Comments may also be made to Erwin at: TPWD, 4200 Smith School Rd., Austin, TX 78744 or (512) 389-8140.

You won't be able to dismiss this by usual means (escape or click button), but you can close it programatically based on user choices or actions.
"I loved having the ability to choose up to 4 photos since we took so many for our engagement shoot, yet they were organized in a way they still made it look simple and tasteful! Being able to choose colors that matched was great, as well as writing a detailed message on the back! Also, saving on postcard postage was definitely a huge plus!!!"
"My fiancé and I love this product. We had to swap out a photo, and the communication with WPD was easy! There were other places that would print our save-the-date postcards at a lower cost, but we were so pleased with the quality of the cards that it was worth the little bit of extra funding!"
"Loved the design for the save the dates for my beach destination wedding! The quality was great and I was surprised how great the post card came out. Also, the designer/artist was able to accommodate my request to add a line of text which I appreciated! Thank you - love my save the dates! Highly recommend!"
"When I started to design the postcard, I was unsure & nervous how the finish product will turn out. One thing is the digital draft & another is physically having the example of it. When I finally confirmed the final finish, I started second guessing myself. Thinking it wouldn't look nice once it's printed. Thought about possibilities of just cancelling the order. Well shipping was a couple days early which was great. Once I received it & opened it I was very impressed & happy with the finished product. Turned out way better than the digital draft. So far, everyone who has received the save dates, have been giving me only but positive feedback on the design. Even the paper feels like a postcard. My fiancé & I are very pleased. It exceeded our expectations. I will definitely recommend to all my friends about this website. It's worth money, considering that it's more affordable than most websites."
"As always, wedding paper divas NEVER disappoints! These cards were absolutely perfect! I cant wait to send them out for everyone to see!!"

Another litmus test. Carolina is 10-1-2 in its last 13, all with red-hot Cam Ward in goal. We know the Rangers soundly beat the Devils with perhaps their best performance of the year, yet we also know how mightily the Devils are struggling (will Lou Lamoriello lop another coach just before the playoffs?) and how that struggle continued last night against the Penguins.
And we know the game before the victory over the Devils, the Rangers didn't play poorly, made some terrible mistakes, went with four defensemen, and were victims of some questionable, at best, calls. But that was another game against a smokin' hot team. The Pens are 13-1-2 in their last 16 after pounding the Devils last night. Oh, the Pitt game was on the road, the Devils game at home.
So the Rangers go on the road to play another team steamrolling the league. And needing it. Can they possibly beat the Hurricanes? Can they afford not to?
And, as hot as the Canes have been, the Rangers can tie them in points with a win tonight. Imagine.
The whole thing has really bunched up the last two nights, with Pittsburgh, Montreal and Florida all winning, and Philly losing but having another in its home-and-home with Toronto remaining. The Habs get the Islanders tonight.
After this, four remain: At Boston Saturday in another of those cursed matinee games; home for Montreal in what might be the biggest game of the year Tuesday; and the season-ending home-and-home with the Flyers. As you already know, the Rangers have the toughest remaining schedule of the bunch fighting for Eastern playoff spots 4-5-6-7-8 … and 9.
A few things.
I know you guys miss JD. Well, John Davidson, the president of the surging St. Louis Blues, will be Gary Bettman's guest on his NHL Hour show today at 4 p.m., on XM channel 204 and Sirius channel 208, or NHL.com. You can ask JD questions by calling in at 1-877-645-6696 or by email at email@example.com.
Two words: Al Montoya.
I was watching one of the games the other night, I think it was Edmonton, and doing the color commentary was none other than Louie DeBrusk, the man whom Glen Sather tried to get as compensation (with Steve Rice) for the Rangers' signing Adam Graves in 1991, and whom Sather did get (with Rice and Bernie Nicholls and a big bag of cash) for Mark Messier a month or so later.
I was also watching Seinfeld, the backwards episode with the trip to India. The groom, Pinter Ronowat, looks like Michal Rozsival. Anybody else notice that?
"You can call us Usha and Zubin."
"Well, Usha …"
"I'm Zubin."
Not sure if we'll squeeze in another post before they drop the puck in Raleigh tonight. Sorry. My car's going up on the rack all day (I might sneak off to a local links to kill some time while I wait, especially if it's really going to be in the 60s and sunny). If I get back in time to give you a blank sheet for your in-game artistry, I will.
If not, enjoy.

Since it was just the 2 of us we thought a simple steak dinner would hit the spot.
Even though there are some porterhouses and t-bones in the freezer I decided on a sirloin because the last one had turned out well.
While we were in the grocery store on Saturday Mrs. SC picked out some broccoli and mushrooms so I mixed them with some salt, pepper, and sesame oil and put them in the grill basket. But unlike previous cooks I went with less heat and put the cover on the grill, which gave less charring and more even cooking...although I kinda missed the crispy florets.
French fries. Hash browns. Au gratin. Potatoes in just about any form go well with a steak but when it comes down to brass tacks I'll take a baked Russet every time.

When Henry Ligier, 59, lost his job late last year after 20 years as a safety director for a paperboard manufacturer in Philadelphia, he admits he knew nothing about online job boards or social networking.
"It used to be it was a handshake and a knock on the door that got you a job," he says. "Now everything is different."
Like many other job seekers who are older, entry- or mid-skill level, Ligier found a lot of resources aimed at professional, white-collar job seekers but few that addressed some of his unique challenges.

Farewell MOPA!
For one of the first times in recent memory, I'm at a loss for words, so I'll start simply: Today is my last day as the marketing and communications manager at MOPA. Although everyone (ok, almost everyone) says this, it has truly been a pleasure to work with such an amazingly talented and truly dedicated team--the mission you see on the website is what I see lived out at this organization week in and week out. From my experience, this is somewhat unique among organizations and makes MOPA a very special place to work. Plus I have had the distinct pleasure of working in a beautiful space within a beautiful space--museums have always felt like a second home to and it's hard to find a prettier locale in San Diego than Balboa Park.
The best part of my time at MOPA though has been working with and learning from you, our MOPA community, hearing your thoughts on Twitter, sharing your photos on Facebook and checking out some amazing contest submissions (the Foodie Photo Contest was a favorite, although I must say that I ate about three desserts each day after looking at all the mouth-watering images submitted). While I'm excited for some new horizons, there is no doubt in my mind that I'll miss this. I already do.
In my new career, I'll be working as a creative writer for the UCSD Rady School of Management, writing marketing copy and creating content for their online and new media presence. You can keep up with what I'm doing by following me on Twitter or following the Rady School's social media pages if you are so inclined.
Thanks for the memories MOPA. It's been fun.
Love marketing and MOPA? Submit your resume.

Greg Wallace couldn't help but notice the trademark dreadlocks in the crowd at Bureau Valley High School Saturday. The lifetime Chicago Bears fan told his wife, "that's Peanut Tillman."
Charles "Peanut" Tillman, a two-time All-Pro cornerback for the Chicago Bears, was among hundreds of friends and family who packed the Bureau Valley auditorium to say their final farewell to their dear friend, Cora Peters.
Tillman and his wife, Jackie, came across Cora's story in her blog for Caring Bridge. The Tillmans had their own trials when their daughter, Tiana, was born with a heart ailment in 2008 and required an immediate heart transplant. At the time, Tillman said it was hard for him to pray, "because I didn't know if it was right for me to pray for a heart for my child because I knew that for my child to live, somebody else's child had to die."
The Tillmans took a special interest in Cora and took the time to visit her in the hospital. Peanut also treated Cora and her family to a Bears game.
This wasn't just a professional athlete looking for some publicity. This was genuine love shown by a famous football player and his family, who play the game of life the way he plays football. This was about a special girl, who had a zest for life, a big heart and was loved by all that knew her and many more who didn't.
Shannon Reuter, Cora's close friend, said it was "really incredible to see such a big face in a small town for a special girl."
Another one of Cora's friends, Bailey Russell of Wyanet, met the Tillmans when they were visiting Cora in the hospital. She also got to speak with Tillman again Saturday. Russell said Tillman is the most amazing person she's ever met, besides Cora, of course.
"He is an extraordinary person. He is truly one of the most influential people I have ever met," she said. "He does so much for others that people aren't aware of, and taking time to get to know Cora was just a small piece, but made a difference in her and her family's life.
"Charles blessed the Peters family not only with things like tickets, food, etc., but he also blessed them with his love and prayers. Truly, truly one of the most amazing people I have encountered. He did so much for one person who his wife loved dearly, and it just makes a mark on peoples lives, showing them the good in the world."
Tillman and his family have established the Charles Tillman Cornerstone Foundation to provide opportunities and resources to children and their families in need. Tillman's charitable efforts have impacted the lives of more than one million Chicago-area children.
Wallace, my comrade here at the BCR, said he now how has a favorite Chicago Bear. Count me in that corner, too. Peanut is simply a professional athlete who gets it. Unlike NBA Hall of Famer Charles Barkley, who infamously said years ago, "I'm no role model," Peanut Tillman's actions and care shows he truly is.
Charles "Peanut" Tillman is someone our kids can and should look up to.
If you would like to hear more about Peanut, Google "Charles Tillman: My Story." It is an excellent piece about the man behind the famous No. 33 in the Bears uniform. I found several other stories on other athletes sharing their faith.
• Peanut Trivia: Wonder how Tillman got his nickname? It seems when he was an infant an aunt called him Peanut because the shape of his body resembled peanut.
• My condolences to the family of Michael S. Jonas, 41, also known as "Jonas the Giant" to area professional wrestling fans, who passed away suddenly Sunday. He was a giant with a big heart.
Also, I'd like to express my condolences to the family of Spring Creek golf ace Theresa Blanco, who passed away Jan. 2 at the age of 87. She won the Spring Creek club championship 27 times.
• Princeton native Rebecca (Hanson) Pecorelli, 38, now of Chicago, qualified for the Boston Marathon with a time of 3 hours, 38.47 seconds in the Chicago Marathon this fall.

THE getaway driver in an armed raid on a security van needed the money to visit his terminally ill son in hospital, a court heard.
Gary Allen, 41, was jailed for 32 months after admitting the robbery he and 27-year-old Ricky Maidment carried out on a G4S van outside Tesco Express in Fordingbridge, in which the latter threatened a guard with a machete.
They made off in Allen's Land Rover with more than £18,000 in a cash box but were arrested just minutes after the incident on March 5 this year, thanks to a courageous driver who followed them.
Bournemouth Crown Court heard Allen, who has no previous convictions, agreed to do the job so he and his wife could afford trips to hospital to visit his 19-year-old step-son Jake, who was given only six months to live earlier this year.
Jailing Allen on Friday, Judge Samuel Wiggs said his case was "exceptionally tragic" and the jail term was "the very least" he could impose.
"I am sorry that you have let your family down in this way, I'm sure you are too," he said.
"I am sorry for the inevitable effect this will have on your son."
Maidment also pleaded guilty to robbery and was jailed for four years and eight months, with a concurrent one year jail term for possessing a blade.
In mitigation, Robert Grey told the court that self-employed tree surgeon and gardener Allen had met Maidment at Salisbury Hospital – where Jake was being treated for cystic fibrosis – some 18 months before the raid.
He said Allen initially refused Maidment's offer of the then-unspecified job, but when Jake was moved to Southampton Hospital a year and a half later he found he couldn't afford the regular visits from his home in Fairfield Road, Salisbury.
Therefore, Allen agreed to drive Maidment, of Rollestone Street, to and from the scene, said Mr Grey.
Representing Maidment – who has a long criminal record including a serious violent offence – Frank Abbot said the robbery had been masterminded by a third party who recruited his client due to his long record.
A third man was questioned by police but has not been charged.
Both men were ordered to pay the £120 victim surcharge.
• Courageous dad in high-speed chase
A HIGH-speed car chase ensued when a dad-of two turned have-a-go hero spotted Maidment menacing the guard with a machete and pursued the pair out into the countryside.
Philip Hoare, 41, had taken a wrong turning and ended up in Fordingbridge by mistake when he saw the raid and followed Allen's car in his van as they fled, reporting their progress to the police.
"I can't stand bullies and this guy had a machete over this poor security man's head, I had to do something," said Mr Hoare, a contract manager for a demolition company.
"I don't consider myself a hero. I saw him run and I just chased him. I wasn't scared, autopilot just took over."
Thanks to his efforts the robbers were soon arrested, and the money recovered.

On April 7, I had the privilege of being a panelist on the Women in Localization Crowdsourcing event at Acclaro. Hosted by COMSYS's Linda Roslund and André Pellet, the evening consisted of a wine and cheese meet-and-greet, followed by our panel presentations, a Q & A session, and networking over coffee, and topped off with exotic chocolates.
Our hosts created an interesting and unique agenda for discussion. My localization colleague, Regina Bustamante, from Guidewire, and I, were tasked with selling our community translation approach to a room full of CEO's and/or CIO's. How delightful to see a room full of thirty-plus women industry leaders (even if only pretend)!
Adobe's approach is to build strong ties with its communities: strong engagement; high commitment; community empowerment. Many and varied communities already exist: Adobe User Groups, Adobe Learning Communities, Adobe Forums, Adobe Community Professionals, and Adobe Prerelease programs, to name just a few. We know our customers use our products to produce, create, design and develop content in one or multiple languages. They continually contribute to the enhancement and quality improvement of our products, whether that be through patch submissions, bug filings, feedback at Beta, comments on Help docs, or translations. Our job is to make the process easy, as well as the programs supportive and responsive.
If your company does not have a community translation program, it's not so hard to get started! Begin the conversation with your communities; they may already have been discussing such an initiative. Listen to what their needs and requirements are. More times than not, they are the ones to launch such programs because they need content and products in languages that your company may not be able to support at this time.
What do you already have in place for such a program and where might you need to invest?
- Staff: Roles are constantly changing. Leverage your team's skills and ask that everyone spend some percentage of time on community engagement. Everyone benefits: your employees learn to understand customer requirements, and your community knows you listen. Your communities may wish to act as moderators, or you might have to hire for those roles.
- Infrastructure: Determine if you can adapt or extend your current globalization content management platform and other translation technology tools to the community. You may need to purchase, lease or build additional pieces.
- Quality controls: Ask, or even expect, the community to "police" themselves if the community is big enough or has strong leadership. Otherwise, utilize your current Language Service Providers in this new role.
- Contributions: All you need is a passionate community! Don't forget about recognition and rewards. Community love your products, but they also need to know that you value and appreciate the extra time and efforts they donate.
One excellent example of a successful and growing community translation project is Adobe TV. Adobe has partnered with dotSub to extend the reach of Adobe TV content by enabling volunteer translators worldwide to translate videos into any language. At last viewing, there were 32 languages available, 246 published translations with 136 in progress, and 427 translators with another 101 being registered and qualified.
In the near future, I'll showcase some other community translation projects.

PALM COAST, Fla. - A stretch of Interstate 95 in Flagler County reopened Tuesday evening after being closed for more than 13 hours when a driver was killed in a fiery crash that damaged the roadway, officials say.
[MORE INFO: ClickOrlando.com traffic page]
In a tweet earlier on Tuesday, the Flagler County sheriff said, "NB 95 FROM PALM COAST PKWY TO US1 WILL BE CLOSED UP TO 24 HOURS DUE TO CRASH."
Florida Highway Patrol crews were called around 4 a.m. Tuesday to I-95 northbound near Palm Coast Parkway in Palm Coast in reference to a crash.
Troopers said a big rig transporting fuel and a tractor-trailer collided. The truck carrying fuel exploded, killing the driver Christopher Mceuen, 41, of Jacksonville according to the FHP.
The driver of the semi truck 33 year-old St. Claire Agenord of Winter Haven was not hurt.
FHP troopers said the crash ignited a fire along the roadway and it had to be repaired before anyone could drive on it.
Traffic along I-95 northbound was being rerouted to East Moody Boulevard, which is State Road 100. After 6 p.m. Tuesday, troopers said I-95 reopened to traffic.

Des Moines Register, AP left out McCain reversals in reporting on his immigration position
The Des Moines Register asserted that Sen. John McCain is a "supporter of comprehensive immigration reform" without noting that he now says he would not support his bill if it came up for a vote in the Senate, and that he has reversed himself on a key issue. Similarly, the Associated Press reported that "[t]he three leading candidates for president have somewhat similar views on illegal immigration reform," but did not note McCain's reversals.
A March 6 Des Moines Register editorial [1] asserted that "[Sen. John] McCain, [Sen. Hillary] Clinton and [Sen. Barack] Obama all have advocated for a practical, compassionate approach to dealing with the estimated 12 million people here without documentation. They know a more secure border is needed. So are realistic immigration quotas to meet U.S. work-force demands and reunify families." The Register added: "Whichever candidate wins the White House will be a supporter of comprehensive immigration reform." In fact, during CNN's January 30 Republican presidential debate [2], McCain asserted [3] that he "would not" support his original comprehensive immigration proposal if it came to a vote on the Senate floor. Moreover, McCain now [4] says [5] that "we've got to secure the borders first" -- a position at odds with his prior assertion [6] that border security could not be disaggregated from other aspects of comprehensive immigration reform without being rendered ineffective.
Similarly, a March 5 Associated Press article [7] reported that "[t]he three leading candidates for president have somewhat similar views on illegal immigration reform," adding, "Presumptive Republican candidate John McCain sponsored a 2006 bill that would have offered illegal immigrants legal status, on the condition they learned English, paid fines and back taxes and passed a background check. He supports a border fence and recently said securing borders is a chief concern." The article did not note McCain's shift away from comprehensive immigration reform, or his stated opposition to his own comprehensive immigration proposal.
In his February 7 speech [8] to the Conservative Political Action Conference (CPAC), McCain asserted that "[o]n the issue of illegal immigration, a position which provoked the outspoken opposition of many conservatives, I stood my ground aware that my position would imperil my campaign." After claiming that "we failed" on immigration, McCain stated: "I accept that, and have pledged that it would be among my highest priorities to secure our borders first, and only after we achieved widespread consensus that our borders are secure, would we address other aspects of the problem in a way that defends the rule of law and does not encourage another wave of illegal immigration."
But in a March 30, 2006, Senate floor statement [9], McCain said: "While strengthening border security is an essential component of national security, it must also be accompanied by immigration reforms." He further stated: "[A]s long as there are jobs available in this country for people who live in poverty and hopelessness in other countries, those people will risk their lives to cross our borders -- no matter how formidable the barriers -- and most will be successful." Arguing that "[o]ur reforms need to reflect that reality," McCain said, "We need to establish a temporary worker program that permits workers from other countries -- to the extent they are needed -- to fill jobs that would otherwise go unfilled."
While McCain has shifted to a position of "border security first," both Clinton and Obama continue to support "comprehensive immigration reform." During the February 22 CNN-Univision debate [10], Clinton said:
CLINTON: We need comprehensive immigration reform. I have been for this. I signed on to the first comprehensive bill back in 2004. I've been advocating for it. Tougher, more secure borders -- of course. But let's do it the right way: cracking down on employers, especially once we get to comprehensive immigration reform, who exploit undocumented workers and drive down wages for everyone else. I'd like to see more federal help for communities like Austin and others, like Laredo where I was this morning, that absorb the health care, education and law enforcement costs. And I personally, as president, would work with our neighbors to the south to help them create more jobs for their own people.
And finally, we need a path to legalization to bring the immigrants out of the shadows, give them the conditions that we expect them to meet: paying a fine for coming here illegally, trying to pay back taxes over time, and learning English. If they had committed a crime in our country or the country they came from, then they should be deported. But for everyone else, there must be a path to legalization. I would introduce that in the first 100 days of my presidency.
During the same debate, Obama asserted:
OBAMA: We are a nation of laws and we are a nation of immigrants, and we can reconcile those two things.
So we need comprehensive reform -- we need comprehensive reform, and that means stronger border security. It means that we are cracking down on employers that are taking advantage of undocumented workers because they can't complain if they're not paid a minimum wage, they can't complain if they're not getting overtime, worker safety laws are not being observed. We have to crack down on those employers, although we also have to make sure that we do it in a way that doesn't lead to people with Spanish surnames being discriminated against. So there's got to be a -- a -- a safeguard there.
We have to require that undocumented workers, who are provided a pathway to citizenship, not only learn English, pay back taxes and pay a significant fine, but also that they're going to the back of the line, so that they're not getting citizenship before those who have applied legally, which raises two last points.
Numerous [11] media [12] outlets [13] have [14] reported McCain's past position on immigration without noting that he has since changed his position. In its December 15 endorsement [15] of McCain for his party's presidential nomination -- which praised McCain for "taking stands based on principle, not party dogma" -- the Register inaccurately stated [16] that McCain "continues to support comprehensive immigration reform -- while watching his poll standings plunge." In contrast to the AP and the Register, The New York Times' Elisabeth Bumiller, in a March 3 article [17], noted that McCain has "moved from his original position on immigration," and that "McCain went so far at a debate at the Ronald Reagan Presidential Library in January to say that if his original proposal came to a vote on the Senate floor, he would not vote for it."
From the Associated Press article:
The three leading candidates for president have somewhat similar views on illegal immigration reform.
Presumptive Republican candidate John McCain sponsored a 2006 bill that would have offered illegal immigrants legal status, on the condition they learned English, paid fines and back taxes and passed a background check. He supports a border fence and recently said securing borders is a chief concern. Both Democratic candidates Hillary Rodham Clinton and Barack Obama voted for the 2006 bill and a border fence.
Experts following the immigration debate claim Republicans had hoped illegal immigration would become a wedge issue between the two parties in the 2008 presidential election. But activists say, and exit poll data suggests, it's backfired. Mitt Romney, a once leading Republican candidate with the most stringent views on illegal immigration dropped out of the race last month and immigrants, particularly Latinos, have registered and are predicted to vote in unprecedented numbers.
Still, the issue of immigration reform has not resonated with voters as some hoped it would and debate on the issue has faded, particularly in non-border states.
From the Des Moines Register editorial:
With John McCain claiming the Republican nomination for president, Americans move closer to focusing on the issues they want the next president to address. And though Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton are still slugging it out for the Democratic nomination, it seems likely the nation's illegal-immigration crisis will be among those issues.
Watching TV coverage of polling places in Texas on Tuesday made it clear that Latinos will play a significant role in picking the next president. Many voters in that state and others have relatives in the country without documentation, or south of the border, who wish to legally live and work in the United States. That will influence the debate leading up to November's general election.
McCain, Clinton and Obama all have advocated for a practical, compassionate approach to dealing with the estimated 12 million people here without documentation. They know a more secure border is needed. So are realistic immigration quotas to meet U.S. work-force demands and reunify families.
Whichever candidate wins the White House will be a supporter of comprehensive immigration reform. But it will take more than that to overcome the opposition. President Bush has supported reform, yet it repeatedly stalls in Congress.
A vocal minority has blocked action. So those who support comprehensive reform will have to become a vocal majority. After all, polls show most Americans want a path to earned citizenship for illegal immigrants in good standing otherwise.

How do I apply for workers' compensation benefits?
Almost every state requires employers to provide workers' compensation insurance to cover the medical bills and lost wages of employees who suffer work-related illnesses or injuries. Although the procedures for applying for workers' compensation benefits vary from state to state, some general guidelines apply:
- Notify your employer immediately if you are hurt on the job. State law may require that you report your injury within a certain amount of time. You may be required to provide formal written notice of the injury--for example, your name, address, occupation, and when and how you were injured. There also may be a time limit on how long you have to notify your employer about the injury.
- Keep notes for yourself, including a description of what has happened, any witnesses, etc. Also, keep notes of who you talk to and when regarding your injury (e.g., the personnel department).
- Get medical attention for your injury right away. Keep in mind, however, that even if you see your own doctor, you may also be required to see a doctor who is authorized to treat workers under the workers' compensation contract.
- File a claim with your employer or the workers' compensation agency, whichever is required by your state. Here too, time limits vary for how long you have to file a claim. Typically, you have one or two years from the date of the injury to file a claim.

TALLAHASSEE, Fla. - Florida is reaching a deal to bring major Internet retailer Amazon to the state.
Florida Gov. Rick Scott announced on Thursday that Amazon would bring more than 3,000 jobs to the state between now and 2016. The company is poised to spend more than $300 million on new warehouses.
Under the plan, two distribution centers spanning more than one million square feet each would be built in the state.
The governor had previously said no to a deal to bring Amazon to the state. He had expressed concerns that signing off on such a deal would result in tax increases for Floridians.
Scott's office said that once here Amazon would begin collecting state sales taxes from residents at the time it is required under state law.
"Oh, wow. We haven't had to do that before, have we?" asked online shopper Dana Averette. "I'm fine with it as long as they keep the Super Saver Shipping."
The 6 percent sales tax would amount to around $6 on the average DVD purchase.
Currently, Floridians are supposed to pay taxes for online purchases, but there's no way to enforce the law.

My Grandma Waalen's maiden name was Marquand. Grandma had four Sisters and two Sisters-in-Law. When I was growing up I used to love sitting in my Grandma's kitchen visiting with my Great Aunts, catching up on all the family gossip and hearing about their current projects.
From cooking to canning to "stitching", I learned it all. As I designed and knit each of the pieces in this collection I thought back to those times and a tear came to my eye, and, a smile to my lips. Carmen is the first of the "Marquand Girls" convertible cowls.

At his restaurant The Grey Plume in Omaha, Nebraska, Clayton Chapman is living his dream. Chapman graduated in 2006 from The Illinois Institute of Art – Chicago with an Associates degree in Culinary Arts, and is garnering national attention for his inspired food. He recently picked up a Trailblazing Chefs Award from Cooking Light along with Grant Achatz and Marcus Samuelsson. Oh – and he's 25.
Always down for meeting new chefs, we connected with Clayton about his rising culinary star – still fairly fresh out of The Art Institute and Tru Restaurant in Chicago.
Culinary Style
- My style is seasonal, locally-driven, contemporary new-American cuisine.
- We start with great ingredients and highlight them through multiple variations of one specific item in different textures and cooking techniques.
Tomato Love
- In the dish 'Tomato…Many Ways,' I combine a tomato crudo, tomato concassé with onion and garlic, a raw tomato topped simply with coarse sea salt, tomato gelée, smoked tomato mouse, tomato foam, homemade truffled buttermilk ricotta, and a basil marshmallow.
- Tomato tips: The best tomatoes will be firm yet supple, be completely red – no green at the top – and should have a smooth skin, free of cracks.
Thoughts on The International Culinary Schools at The Art Institutes
- Beyond the fundamentals, I learned how a professional kitchen operates which helped me establish myself in the industry so quickly
- I not only learned culinary techniques, but I learned the practical, like how to cost a menu, control payroll and run nutritional analysis on a menu
- Putting the name of the school on my resume alone has helped me get my foot in the door of most establishments
Are you a passionate food lover? Do you love diverse cuisines? Ever dreamed of taking that passion to the next level? Well, here's your chance.
Create your tomorrow with a $20,000 scholarship.

Cycling in Alfena in Porto
all cycling regions
The Region of Northern Portugal is characterized by the combination of its green, undulating scenery and characteristic old villages, rivers, and the odd crooked lane. The scenery becomes more rugged and wild towards the northeast.
On the Costa Verde, the green coast of Northern Portugal, you will find the second most important city of Portugal, the harbour city of
, built on the river banks of the river Douro. Porto is great for city walks. It has beautiful walks along the Douro and in the old city sections of Barredo and Ribiera. Take a stroll through the city along shops and many historic buildings. Or, take a relaxing break in one of the so-called ?tascas?, small eating houses where you can sample the true Portuguese cuisine.
The city is also an old trading and maritime city ? its lively trading in the Middle Ages included trading with Great Britain. Porto traded honey, salt and wine for textiles and furs. The frequent trading also led to the settlement of an English community in Porto at that time. Porto?s rich trading history is still illustrated today by the historic buildings. The city of Porto has recently been designated a UNESCO World Heritage City.
Nowadays you will also find modern architecture and various art galleries here. There are many bridges, as the city is located on both banks of the river Douro. The best-known bridge is Ponte Maria Pia, a two-tier bridge designed by the engineer Gustav Eiffel. But this city is also known for its world famous wine, the Port.
Douro valley
is well worth a visit! This wine region, where the famous Port comes from, offers you a beautiful scenery of vineyards, almond, cherry, and olive trees, and steep hills. Some 30,000 farmers live and work here and you are always welcome to have a look around the so-called ?Quintas? ? typical wine companies making the world famous port. The scenery of the Alto Douro wine region and its vine terraces is so extraordinary that it is now a listed UNESCO World Heritage cultural landscape. Here, you will also find the Cõa valley home to the world?s largest prehistoric rock paintings. And then there is Arribes del Duero, a natural park with fascinating wildlife, including birds of prey.
The west coast,
Costa Verde
, has fabulous beaches, dunes, and river valleys to offer. Explore the charming villages of Caminha and Vila Nova de Cerveira. Here, you will also find the national park of Peneda-Gerês and the impressive mountains of Trás-os-Montes, home to rivers, waterfalls, vineyards, and wild horses. In other words, this area lends itself very well to walking and mountain biking.
Most culture can be seen in the East. More inland, you will come across many mediaeval castles, monasteries, and small Romanesque churches.

New York City Wal-Mart Stores is considering taking a smaller stake in South African retailer Massmart Holdings Ltd. to keep its listing on the Johannesburg Stock Exchange, the Associated Press reported.
Massmart said Thursday that Wal-Mart informed the company that it may now make a partial offer to buy more than 50% of the company for 148 rands ($21.06) per share.
In September Wal-Mart offered to buy all of Massmart for about $4.25 billion.
Massmart currently has 201.5 million shares outstanding, according to Thomson Reuters. The company, based in Johannesburg, runs about 290 stores in 13 countries in Africa, with most in South Africa. It also manages eight wholesale and retail chains under various brand names.
A deal with Massmart would give Wal-Mart an opening to expand in South Africa, a fast-growing economy but one that's also troubled by high crime and a 24% unemployment rate. It also has a heavily unionized work force.

This is a Q&A with Colorado Ballet Corps de Ballet Dancer Morgan Buchanan.
- Where are you from?
I was born in San Antonio, TX but I grew up in Houston.
- Where did you train/dance before coming to Colorado Ballet?
I trained with Gilbert Rome and Victoria Vittum for several years, as well as Houston Ballet for 2 years.
- What did you do with your summer break?
I had a very relaxing break! I went to a lot of concerts, visited my parents, went to the beach, and spent a lot of time going out with my friends. I also nannied, which I really enjoy.
- What age did you first start dancing? What do you remember from your first class?
I started dancing at 3, so I don't remember too much of the early years. I do remember loving being onstage from an early age.
- What was your first ballet you remember attending? What do you remember about it?
I don't remember the first ballet I saw, but the first time I remember being truly inspired to be a professional was when I saw Nina Ananiashvili dance Kitri in a performance of Don Q at the Met. It was the first time I saw ABT live. I loved the energy of it all.
- Who are your ballet role models? Dancers that inspire you.
Wendy Whelan is a huge inspiration to me. I saw her in rehearsal at VIDF a couple of years ago, and I don't think I've ever been so moved! Lauren Anderson has also been an inspiration to me. When I was a kid and she was still a principal at Houston Ballet, I heard her talking about a key lime pie she was going to eat when she got home. It was refreshing to hear something so normal! She was always so nice and personable to those who looked up to her. I try to emulate that around young dancers as well.
- Proudest moment in your ballet career?
The student matinee for Peter Pan. I had never danced a leading role with Colorado Ballet before, and the kids really loved the show! The applause was deafening. I was so happy that I had made a well known children's character come to life for them!
- Favorite choreographer(s) you've worked with?
Val Caniparoli. He made a point of correcting everyone, even the understudies! He taught me a lot about contemporary movement even in the short time he was here.
- If you could get a lesson/class from anyone, it would be ________
Probably Baryshnikov. He is a legend. I'd be so nervous!
- Best advice you've ever received from a teacher?
I've had a lot of great advice given to me. Most recently one of my mentors reminded me to always be humble and appreciate the opportunities I have been given!
- Favorite ballets to dance? Which are favorite to watch?
Theme and Variations has been my favorite ballet to dance so far. My favorite ballets to watch are Jiri Kylian's Petit Mort and John Cranko's Onegin.
- Dream role?
Odile in Swan Lake
- If you could never dance again, what would you want your final role to be?
I would want the role to be something that I had a deep emotional connection to.
- What do you like to do when you aren't dancing (your free time)?
I love hiking, cooking, and going to the movies at theaters like the Mayan, Esquire and Sie Center
- What are some of your indulgences?
Happy hour, brunch, and iced americanos!
- Do you have any pre-performance routines/rituals?
Not really. I do obsessively pop my knuckles and yawn a lot out of nervousness before I go on stage.
- What production(s) are you most excited about this year?
I'm very excited for Giselle. I've never seen or danced it before.
- What would you say to people who come to see Colorado Ballet?
Enjoy! And come back to see us!

text: NEW YORK ( TheStreet) - Carl Icahn is reported to have taken a large stake in PC giant Dell's ( DELL), a move that may put the activist investor in opposition to the company's proposed $13.65 a share takeover. Icahn's potential investment adds to a frenetic afternoon for Dell, amid reports from Bloomberg that private equity giant Blackstone Group and competitor PC-maker Hewlett Packard ( HPQ) are studying the company's books in its 'go-shop' period. The Wall Street Journal reports some of Dell's most vocal shareholders may be assembling a competing bid to the proposed $24.4 billion takeover. Citing unnamed sources, CNBC's David Faber reported on Wednesday that Icahn has taken a 100 million share stake in Dell worth roughly $1.4 billion at current market prices, in a holding that amounts to about 6% of the company's outstanding shares. In taking the position, Icahn is likely to oppose Dell's planned takeover by founder Michael Dell and private equity firm Silver Lake Partners, joining a growing chorus of investors who may not vote for the deal in its current form. Instead, Bloomberg report's Icahn may advocate financing a special dividend payment of about $9 a share. Southeastern Asset Management, Dell's top independent shareholder with a near 8.5% stake, said in February it would oppose the deal, citing a low-priced bid that it says undervalues the company by roughly $10 a share. Amid unrest by other investors, T. Rowe Price, Dell's third largest shareholder, also says it will oppose the deal. "We believe the proposed buyout does not reflect the value of Dell and we do not intend to support the offer as put forward," Brian Rogers, T. Rowe Price Chairman and CIO, said in an emailed statement on Feb. 12. Given Michael Dell's near 20% stake in Dell and his inability to vote on the proposed $13.65 a share transaction, Icahn's potential opposition to the deal raises the risk that shareholders vote against the take private transaction. On Wednesday, Dell defended the proposed take-private deal and outlined why it thinks the bidding process has so-far served shareholder interests. A special committee of independent directors set up to weigh the company's options defended its decision in a statement released early on Wednesday. "The Special Committee unanimously determined that the sale of the Company would be the best alternative for stockholders," it said. "We negotiated aggressively to ensure that stockholders received the best possible value and agreed to a $13.65 per share transaction that provides value certainty at a 37% premium above the average price for the 90 days before rumors regarding the transaction surfaced." Boutique investment bank Evercore partners is currently helping the company with a 'go-shop,' in pursuit of a higher priced bid. Bloomberg reports that Blackstone and HP are both studying Dell's books as part of the Evercore-led process.

Check out "Nausea: The Punk Terrorist Anthology Volume 2", also on Alternative Tentacles/Blacknoise!
Finally back in print!
"Nausea are one of those bands that gets name-dropped in punkdom by a lot of people... and it's okay. Their influence within the hardcore punk movements, crossover, power-violence, crust punk, etc. is undeniable. Definitely one of New York City's greatest and tightest. And true to themselves. These squatter punks blended their sensibilities (anti-racism, pro-feminism, animal rights) into the fold of their hardcore punk rock metal. And they did it with dual, opposite sex singers (fans of Destroy and Crass know what I'm talking about!)...Through the years, many bootleg discs have sprung about, so here we have our benevolent uncles at Alternative Tentacles and their friends at Blacknoise gifting us this reissue compilation of 7" tracks, their only studio full-length (Extinction), compilation tracks, and a video for "Cybergod." Pick up the second volume while you're at it, since it was released this past fall. Get the Pabst cold and rejoice!"- Transform Online
"The Punk Terrorist Anthology is an excellent collection that is worth getting even if the track listing mimics the expanded Extinction CD for a few reasons. First of all, the songs are remastered this time out, and you actually can tell the difference; the band's Crass meets Discharge by way of New York's squatter ABC No-Rio scene blares out of the speakers and pummels you like it never did before. In addition, bassist John John Jesse provides heartfelt liner notes; the packaging in general is impressive; and the multimedia video clip of the chugging, relentless "Cybergod" perfectly encapsulates the band's sound of dueling-gender vocals and well-played grindy punk with images that remind what a powerful live act Nausea was. The only question is: What's left for a second volume?"- All Music Guide

Following on from my books post last week, below I've listed my favourite films of the decade. I don't think it was a particularly good era for the movies. The Coens were off the boil, we no longer had Stanley Kubrick, some idiot reinvented torture porn and mindless blockbusters continued to dominate. Outside of Hollywood I think English and French art house films generally got overpraised out of sheer desperation (the Times puts the feeble Cache as their #1 film of the decade) and the explosion of Korean horror films didn't do all that much for me. Still, for what it's worth, these are my favourite films (not necessarily the best) of the noughties.
1. Mulholland Drive (2001) David Lynch
2. The Barbarian Invasions (2003) Denys Arcand
3. In The Mood For Love (2000) Wong Kar Wai
4. Grizzly Man (2005) Werner Herzog
5. Ghost Dog (2000) Jim Jarmusch
6. There Will Be Blood (2007) Paul Thomas Anderson
7. Bloody Sunday (2002) Paul Greengrass.

Otley is facing a "massive increase in traffic" if new housing plans proceed.
That is the warning being made by recently-formed Facebook campaign group Otley Development Disgrace (ODD).
The campaign has already warned that the town could increase in size by a fifth over the next 15 years, should the 1,177-plus homes that have been earmarked for the area be built.
Now it has turned its attention to the impact of the expansion envisaged in the Local Development Framework on local roads.
A spokesman for ODD said: "This site-oriented planning process has resulted in a very substantial proposed increase in the overall planned size of Otley, without consideration being given to the combined impact that several large housing developments sites will have on the town and its infrastructure.
"Otley's schools, doctors, dentists and car parks are already full but the greatest concerns are probably about the impact on transport infrastructure – particularly as the majority of the new residents will inevitably work out of town.
"The overall impact on Otley is complicated by the fact that one of the proposed developments, 'east of Otley', includes the construction of a relief road from Stephen H Smith's garden centre to the existing roundabout at the start of the Leeds Road.
"While the primary role of the relief road is to provide access to/from the new development, it will clearly also divert some through-traffic from the town centre."
He added that the inspector for what was then the Leeds Unitary Development Plan in 2005, voiced specific concerns about the east of Otley's impact on the A660 – the main road to and from town.
Those problems would be exacerbated by the fact several other large housing schemes in Otley, including the 198-home Garnett's redevelopment, are also proceeding.
The ODD spokesman added: "Otley's already inadequate transport links with key employment centres like Leeds and Bradford will be subjected to a disproportionally large increase in traffic volume, this without any specific plans to make capacity improvements."

And when you tell her you love her you better mean it!!!!! Because she's a very sensitive person.

The Nishi Building
Molonglo Group
Canberra, Australia
Canberra, Australia's parliamentary capital, is often labeled bland and bureaucratic. But the new Nishi Building, designed by Molonglo Group, sits in stark contrast to these traits. It is progressive, quirky and vibrant, and, as a result, has put Canberra back on the map.

In pharmacology, synaptic pharmacology is the study of drugs that act on the synapses. It deals with the composition, uses, and effects of drugs that may enhance (receptor) or diminish (blocker) activity at the synapse, which is the junction across which a nerve impulse passes from an axon terminal to a neuron, muscle cell, or gland cell.

Book Center
The Seminary Book Center has been our students' favorite place to shop for many years. Why? Almost every book is discounted 20 percent. That's right—textbooks, gift books, and even most special order books can be bought for 20 percent off the retail price! Got a cookbook you need? 20 percent off. A favorite thriller? 20 percent off. If you don't see a book you want, ask us. We can special order just about anything. And you know that you'll be saving 20 percent off almost all those texts for classes. You can also charge your books with a MasterCard, Visa, Discover, or American Express card and receive the same discount. Also, check out our website at bookcenter.dts.edu to search our inventory day or night.
Stock up with back-to-school supplies, snacks, and DTS clothing. Some hot new commodities in clothing include our Greek and Hebrew T-shirts. The bookstore is also a great source for music. All of our Christian music is 15 percent off the retail price (including new music and special orders). We have listening stations to help you with your selections. Don't forget your loved ones. The Book Center has all sorts of gift items, greeting cards and gift wrap to let them know how much you care.

Feel free to stop by and see us. We would be more than happy to demo our PowerBook laptop, iMac or eMac. Come by and visit us. You'll be glad you did!
Textbooks Ordering Tips
Follow this procedure to find out the texts you need:
- Under the Go To, choose textbooks.
- Select "Order Books Online" button.
- Choose credit card or student bank.
- Select the titles you want by checking the boxes on the right, or print the list and come to the Book Center to place your order.
Buy only the books that are required for your course(s). Wait until after the first class to buy suggested books. Sometimes suggested books have to be read cover-to-cover, but other times they're just meant to supplement the course. (I know, I know. There are some books you can't resist. I buy some of the suggested early, but only those I'd read even if I wasn't taking the class.) Please buy only the books for the courses and sections for which you are enrolled. If you buy texts for other courses, we will run out of them for the students who are enrolled in those courses. After the first 4 weeks, all of the textbooks are available for anyone to purchase.
Pay attention to course changes. Different professors often have entirely different books for the same course.
From time to time, publishers are late in sending a specific book to us, or we run out of a text. Please special order it if you want the book. Every year students go without because we don't know how many still need the book.
In order for us to keep giving discounts, we can only take returns or exchanges within 48 hours of the time of purchase (not including special orders or computer sales). The returned book or Bible must be unused and unmarked. Music and software must remain shrink-wrapped and unopened. You must have the dated receipt—no exceptions. Purchases made by credit card will be returned to the credit card, student account to student account, etc. (Of course, we will replace defective books anytime, and if you drop a class we will give credit with a drop slip for books in new condition within the first two weeks of the semester.)
Copy Center (Mail Services Building)
At the Copy Center (M-F 8 a.m.-10:30 a.m.) you can:
- laminate—we have three sizes of lamination material: wallet size, letter size, and 11 x 17.
- punch and spiral bind—pay for your materials and do it yourself.
- fax—local faxes are free (long-distance faxes require a calling card or credit card).
- copy in black/white and color—the self-service copier will auto feed, collate, and staple.
- leave your copying for us to do at a reduced cost—we require at least two days advance notice to complete your work.
- purchase paper—by the sheet or by the ream.

Top Team Cookbooks, Part 1
Baseball teams have a long history of charitable endeavors, and all 30 major-league clubs have official charitable organizations involved in various good works. One tried and true fundraising project is the "cookbook for a cause," in which players' wives compile their (or their husbands') favorite recipes in a cookbook, which is then offered for sale to fans. I'm not sure exactly what the appeal is—are baseball wives known to be excellent cooks, or is making Jean Luzinski's Squash Casserole a way of paying tribute to Greg? Nevertheless, these books have been produced for as long as I can remember.
I've leveraged the power of the Internet to find the best and worst examples of the genre.
Without further ado, I bring you: the MLB team cookbook power rankings.
At first glance, this Cubs cookbook looks pretty good. It's certainly for a good cause: raising money for Ryan Dempster's foundation for children with DiGeorge Syndrome, with which Dempster's daughter Riley is afflicted. But after a little scrutiny, this illusion of adequacy begins to break down.
9. Batter Up (1983), Coaches And Wives of The Boston Red Sox Players
As many of these books do, Batter Up recalls the halcyon pre-Photoshop days, where even simple designs had to be physically pasted up by actual humans. One wonders whether the designer photographed an actual lobster with the baseball glove and, if so, whether s/he expensed said lobster. The '80s photo processing makes me feel all warm inside as well.
Part 2 will appear next week.

Naming your team after a people group is more of a compliment than a slur, right? I have no problem with the Indians, Braves, Chiefs, Vikings, Yankees, or Cowboys. "Indian giver" is over the line, though.

My first reaction to this was "Oh,'Ian the Vegan' is reviewing cookbooks." So...I get that you won't be testing the recipes, but is it really fair for you to take potshots at the chicken and fish dishes?
Jan 29, 2013 06:51 AM
Who let Zambrano have a knife? Not smart. Not smart at all.
Jan 29, 2013 08:42 AM
Every church I ever joined and walked out on published its own cook book to raise extra cash. The only one worth keeping (and for generations) comes from Christ Church Cathedral in New Orleans. Those ladies's servants really knew how to make a jambalaya!

HEY: Proud Owner of the Cubs cookbook, I use it all da time
Jan 29, 2013 09:52 AM
Thanks for buying the Cubs Cookbook. The players approached me about putting it together, and were very enthusiastic about it. For the record, Colvin is juggling vegetables, and we did put the knife away after Big Z was finished with the photo shoot.

SAINT LEO, Fla. – Behind 11 victories out of 14 events, the Saint Leo men's swim team reopened its Sunshine State Conference schedule with a solid 158-104 victory over visiting Florida Tech on Friday afternoon.
Opening the meet with a one-second victory in the 200 Medley Relay behind the A relay team of Rhet Rheinlander, Vashaad Fincher, Matheus Assis and Milton Alberto-Requejo, the Lions started things on the right foot. The good start was bookended by a 200 Free Relay victory by the A Relay team of Assis, Alberto-Requejo, Gabe Keown and Patrick Ceddia as Saint Leo swept both relays in the SSC meet.
In total, the Lions saw top individual finishes from Ceddia, Rheinlander, Assis, Keown and Jose De Jesus in the victory.
As Saint Leo continues to build its resume for the Sunshine State Conference Championships and beyond, the Lions will host one more regular season event before the postseason begins.

I have run into this same issue. I'm assuming you are using the 700MB CD ISO Version of BT3? If so then as far as i understand it the Source files are not included in that version. You would need to get them off the Extented USB Version and copy them to that dir or just use the Extended USB Version.
Just a side not i found that when it updated the Alsa Drivers for BT3 that i lost the Sound Card in the Config File and in order to have sound i had to run ./alsaconfig everytime i booted.
Not really a problem just a pain.
