On Sunday, April 27, 2014, 650 potential students and their family members arrived at NVCC's Technology Hall for the College's Second Annual House. Information booths filled the Technology Hall atrium and tours departed every 15 minutes on the hour, while workshops were held consecutively on topics ranging from the admissions process to transfer and dual admissions.
"We actually had to start the tours early because I had people lining the hallways ten minutes in," describes Admissions Director Linda Stango.
Hospitality Director Karen Rotella and the NVCC Events Management Club served freshly made appetizers as attendees made their way through the culinary and viticulture quarters. Students and staff were also stationed at campus hot spots like the ACE, Library, Prism Lounge and Job Placement Center to provide a snapshot of life on campus.
"I believe bumper-to-bumper is the term you want to use," said President Daisy Cocco De Filippis, Ph.D., as she tried to explain the magnitude of Sunday's event to Monday's Greater Waterbury Educational Leadership Breakfast. "People said to me, Daisy, there are so many people here and I told them, 'there's a good reason for that. We are doing really wonderful things here.'"

Charles Coles Diggs Jr. (December 2, 1922 – August 24, 1998) was an African-American politician from the U.S. state of Michigan. Diggs was an early member of the civil rights movement. He attended the trial of Emmett Till's murderers, and was elected the first chairman of the Congressional Black Caucus.
Diggs resigned from the United States House of Representatives and served 14 months of a three-year sentence for mail fraud, although he maintained his innocence. He was the first African American elected to Congress from Michigan.
Early life[edit]
Born in Detroit, Charles was the only child of Mayme E. Jones Diggs, and Charles Diggs, Sr. He attended the University of Michigan, Detroit College of Law (1952-52) and Fisk University.[1] and served in the United States Army from 1943 to 1945. After his discharge, Diggs worked as a funeral director. He served as a member of the Michigan State Senate from the 3rd district 1951-54, just as his father had from 1937 to 1944.
He was rooted in his family's business, the House of Diggs, which at one time was said to be Michigan's largest funeral home.[2]
Political career[edit]
In 1954, Diggs defeated incumbent U.S. Representative George D. O'Brien in the Democratic Party primary elections for Michigan's 13th congressional district. He went on to win the general election to the 84th Congress and was subsequently re-elected to the next twelve Congresses, serving from January 3, 1955, until his resignation June 3, 1980.
The first African American to be elected to Congress in Michigan, Diggs made significant contributions to the struggle for civil rights. In April 1955, he gave a well received speech to a crowd of about 10,000 in Mound Bayou, Mississippi, at the annual conference of the Regional Council of Negro Leadership (RCNL), probably the largest civil rights group in the state. His host was the RCNL's leader, Dr. T.R.M. Howard, a wealthy black surgeon and entrepreneur.[3]
The same year that he was sworn into congress, Diggs received national attention as the only congressman to attend and monitor the trial of the accused killers of Emmett Till, a black teenager from Chicago who was murdered during a trip to the state. The outrage generated by the case gave a tremendous momentum to the emerging civil rights movement. Although he was a member of Congress, the sheriff did not exempt him from Jim Crow treatment. Diggs had to sit at a small table along with black reporters.[3] Following the trial, he continued the fight for justice, calling upon President Eisenhower to call a special session of congress to consider civil rights.[4]
In 1969, Diggs was appointed to the post of Chairman of the Subcommittee on Africa of the Committee on Foreign Affairs, where he strongly advocated ending Apartheid in South Africa. He was a committed publicist for the liberation cause in South Africa, and his 'Action Manifesto' (1972) displayed his support for the armed struggle against Apartheid. In it, Diggs criticized the United States government for decrying the use of such violence when it failed to condemn measures used by the South African government to subjugate the majority of its own people.[5]
Diggs was additionally a founding member and the first chairman of the Congressional Black Caucus, a group of African American representatives and senators working to address the needs and rights of black constituents. While chairman, Diggs successfully led a caucus boycott of President Nixon's State of the Union Address, following Nixon's refusal to meet to discuss issues relevant to African Americans.[6] This and similar work contributed to Diggs being named on the Master list of Nixon political opponents.
In March 1978, Diggs was charged with taking kickbacks from staff whose salaries he raised. He was convicted on October 7, 1978, on 11 counts of mail fraud[7] and filing false payroll forms. Diggs insisted he had done nothing wrong, and was re-elected while awaiting sentencing. He was censured by the House on July 31, 1979, and resigned from Congress June 3, 1980.[7] He was sentenced to three years in prison and served 14 months.
He was a member of Mount Sinai Holy Church of America founded by Bishop-Mother Ida B. Robinson.
Diggs died of a stroke at Greater Southeast Community Hospital in Washington, D.C. He is interred at Detroit Memorial Park in Warren, Michigan.[8]

Just need some guidance on the best way to make a query on the database.I am building a site that has your status updates feature and comments for that status update.Just not sure how to write the sql to pull it all out. I am running a query to get all the status updates assumed I would need to run another query while looping / printing out each status to get all the comments, but there must be another more efficient way.
I have two tables, one for statuses and the other for comments with the status id as key in comments. This is what I was thinking of doing but it looks really inefficient having to run two queries on the database. Any help appreciated.
select * from status
foreach statuses as status
print status
select * from comments where status_id = status_id
foreach comments as comment
print comment
end comments
end status
What is the structure of each table?
What fields (and from which table) are required in the result set?
Table user
userid, username,
Table status
statusid, userid, status, date,
Table comments
commentid, userid, statusid, date, comment
So i basically want to list all the statuses and underneith each status all the comments on that status. As in my previous post, I can do this using nested for loops and queries, but is there any way I can just run one query and pull out all the data at once?

Sanding body surfaces (or any surface, for that matter) can quickly take its toll in sandpaper. "Veteran" sanders know that wet-sanding keeps the paper's surface clean for long periods, of course, but there are many situations where wet-sanding isn't appropriate.
When sanding body filler or fiberglass resin the paper "gums up" in no time, necessitating replacement. Whether you're using a pad, orbital or belt sander the problem is the same: the paper isn't worn out, just clogged.
To the rescue! Keep a wire brush handy when you are sanding. When the paper gums up on you, keep the sander running and press it down on the ends of the wire brush. The stiff bristles will dig out the filler residue and give the paper considerably more life before the grit wears away. Sometimes you can do this several times over.
When sanding fiberglass resin the paper gums up due to heat-melting of the plastic. You need to wait at least 15 minutes for the melted residue to solidify before cleaning it out with the wire brush.

357 magnum for deer?
i have myself selling several guns lately and one was my deer rifle. i have been trying to figure out how to get another cheaper gun and ammo. i came up with the nef 357 magnum, i've owned nef's in the past and they have been good guns. since i have a 357 magnum revolver a 357 rifle makes sense to me as i can just get one kind of ammo and save money. i hunt in kentucky woods where my shots will be 100yds or less. so will a 357 magnum be a good whitetail deer gun at 100yds or less? thanks
It should work fine for deer as long as you don't try to extend its range and you are careful of good shot placement.
Try and keep your shots at 50 yards max. You need to think about the velosity and energy that it will carry downrange to penetrate and harvest cleanly.
What they said up there^^^. For deer, you want a good hard HEAVY solid, not a 125 gr JHP. You want penetration. I deer hunt Eastern Whitetails with a .357 revolver- BUT- 10 inch bbl, 50 yds would be a long shot where I am hunting, and my handloads are 200 gr flat tip. Heart/ lung shot, never had one travel more than 25 yds.
In a carbine, should be fine at right range, right ammo. DO check your state hunting laws. They can be all over the place.
I have an H&R synthetic handi rifle in 357. The minimum factory load I would use is the 158 gr JSP which is about 1850 fps in the rifle. A better choice might be the 140 gr Hornady Leverlution which should be about 2000 fps and good to 100 yards.
It should be fine, but If it were me, I'd move up to a .44.
I took a deer cleanly with a Hi-Point 9540 Carbine at about 35 yards. As long as you're close (I'd say no more than 50 yards) and hit cleanly in the heart/lung area with a 180 gr. soft point, you should be good for a quick, clean kill.
Has anybody here hunted Deer with a mares leg in 357 or 44?
White Tail are very close in body mass and tissue density to humans and the .357 mag seems to work pretty well on 2 legged vermin so why not?
I'd pay attention to C3's load recommendations and go for it.
Rusty, my limited experience with the mares leg platform lends me to believe they are mostly a novelty item. I can not get comfortable sighting and shouldering these firearms and that makes it hard to get a consistent sight plane. That said, I am probably going to look at adding a lever action .44mag to my collection, but more of a true carbine length or so. The mares leg has such a short stock it falls in between a rifle and a pistol and I personally (and this is only my opinion, I respect others who may differ) feel it is a truly lacking platform in terms of practical application. For my money, I would rather invest in a little more traditional, widespread, and proven platform.

Why Is My Medication Making Me Gain Weight?
I`ve been on prednisone for almost 4 years sarcoidosis (now also cardiac). I also take MTX subq weekly in the hopes that I can begin decreasing my prednisone but so far my heart starts skipping and I have to go back up on the prednisone. I am so puffy,I am on 3 different insulins (was not diabetic before prednisone), gained a lot of weight, etc. I am grateful for the prednisone because I know I would be in serious trouble if not for it but the side effects can be horrendous. My question: what is it about the prednisone that can make a person so puffy? My face doesn`t look at all like my drivers license photo. My neck is huge with a double chin, my belly large, the top part of my back has a hump. I am 50 yrs old and I feel like I`m 90.
Dear Sir/Madam-
The experience you are having with prednisone is typical of someone who is taking a relatively large dose for a long period of time. Sometimes methotrexate can reduce the need for prednisone, and there are a few other options if that doesn't work. Prednisone increases hunger (more food intake) and causes the accumulation of fat in the face, neck and trunk regions. It also causes thinning of the skin, salt retention (swelling), cataracts, weakening of the bones and problems with blood sugar control in diabetics. As you say, prednisone works very well to control the disease, but the side effects that one has to endure can be many.
As we learn more about what causes sarcoidosis, we hope to come up with better treatment options.

Guitar Hero 3 XBox Games
Another installment of the Guitar Hero Series, just as popular as the previous versions and it is not difficult to see why.
The newest version of the Guitar Hero series hit the stores late last year and has been causing a storm ever since. Developed by Neversoft and Aspyr Media, and published by Activision and RedOctane, Legends of Rock is the third full installment in the Guitar Hero series and the fourth title overall.
The game is available for the PlayStation 2, PlayStation 3, Wii, Xbox 360, PC, and Mac platforms. Xbox 360, Wii, and Playstation 3 users can also connect online to rock out with others anywhere in the world.As with the previous Guitar Hero games, the player can use standard controllers or a new wireless guitar-shaped controller specially designed for the game.
The gameplay in Guitar Hero 3 remains essentially the same, with the player guiding the guitarist through the varying genres of rock music by hitting the notes in time as they scroll across the screen.One notable addition to the game is the new cooperative career mode. The co-op mode is arranged similarly to the single player career, with one player on lead guitar and the other on bass or rhythm guitar. In this mode you'll find just 6 tiers of songs – each encore song is unique to the co-op mode but the boss battles have been removed.
The co-op storyline portrays the vocalist and drummer looking for a guitarist and bassist. The band makes a video and soon become popular. They get a gig in Japan but difference between the original members put the band on a 3 month hiatus. In the bands comeback performance, the pyrotechnics start a fire in the neighborhood and the members get sent to jail.
Lou decides he will bail them out but only if they agree to play for the inmates, however when the band leaves prison they are sent to Lou's "Inferno", where they must then find their way out by playing a live show.
The game features over great 60 songs, many of which, in contrast to previous games, are master tracks, for any partial to a bit of rock, the sound track is quite amazing.
Top guitarists featured as characters in the game include Tom Morello (of Rage Against the Machine/Audioslave) and Slash (of Guns N' Roses/Slash's Snakepit/Velvet Revolver). The PC, PlayStation 3, and Xbox 360 versions also include Bret Michaels (Poison).Wii users will find few extra features since the game utilizes the Wii Remote's wireless capabilities and accelerometer, as well as making use of the rumble feature and the internal speaker. The internal speaker on the Wii Remote makes a nice little effect when incorrect notes are hit; and the Wii Remote's rumble feature is utilized when Star Power mode is activated.
All in all the game remains largely the same, with a new great sound track and a few new additions. Any fans of the previous versions of Guitar Hero 3 will certainly be entertained once again with Guitar Hero 3: Legends Of Rock.

Photo Gallery: Baldwin Park Unified School District's new Automotive Training Center
With college fees and unemployment numbers continuing to rise, high school students find themselves in need of career inspirations.
The newly opened Automotive Training Center at Baldwin Park High School is complete and ready to begin preparing students from Baldwin Park to seek careers in the high-tech automotive industry.
"We suffer from a lack of engineering talent from our local colleges here in California," said Gale Banks, president and founder of Banks Power in Azusa.
Banks was one of a few local professionals who helped the Baldwin Park Unified School District (BPUSD) put together the Automotive Technology Pathway (ATP) program and score grant funds from the California Department of Education's (CDE) Proposition 1D for vocational education programs three years ago.
"This was something we saw wasn't offered anywhere here," said BPUSD Superintendent Mark Skvarna. "We went to (Gale Banks, Penske) and asked them what they needed in a workforce, and that's what we put together."
The $3 million state-of-the-art center features a classroom area and research/computer area, repair bay for hands-on instruction with five lifts (one heavy duty and four standard), support facilities and a Dynamometer installation with a 3,000 horsepower measurement capacity.
"This is high-tech automotive they are learning, you can't teach that at Jiffy Lube," said Skvarna. "You have to have the expertise and the facility."
Banks, Penske, Toyota and Randy Ritchey, owner of San Dimas-based Performance Associates, are just a few partners so far that will be helping the program with donations and support.
"We have an outside committee for certification and some of that committee are our sponsors," said Christine Dennis, assistant superintendent of student achievement at BPUSD. "We're very pleased of all supporters and sponsors (for the program)."
The program will serve up to 90 students a year from all Baldwin Park high schools as well as offer fee-based certification classes for adult school students. There will be one instructor for the high school component and one is already in place for the adult school component.
Instructor George Luna brings to the program 10 years of experience in the auto industry and nine years teaching automotive technology.
"(Students) have to learn safety first," said Luna. "How to use the fire extinguisher, learn safety on the equipment and on the lifts, then we can start (hands-on learning)."
Through donations and loans of parts and cars, students will get to put what they learned in textbooks to use. Luna said he also hopes to get special guests from the automotive industry to help teach or speak to students.
"Banks can bring in one of his technicians to show the students and the teacher about new advances (in the industry) like green fuel," Skvarna said. "That's a real nice perk."
The program's first students have been in a classroom but will be able to take advantage of the center starting March 14.
"I've never taken anything like this before, so when I had the opportunity I wanted to go for it," said Edgar Gamez, 18, of Baldwin Park. "I've learned a lot about engines and how they work. It's pretty cool."
Gamez, like other students in the program, didn't think of automotive technology as a career before but is happy to have another option or, at the very least, another useful skill.
Steven Guevara, 17, of Baldwin Park has thought about becoming a firefighter or nurse after graduation, but has become more excited about cars lately.
"I want to learn all about the engine, the body ... I want to build a car from the ground up," he said.
Seniors like Gamez and Guevara who will only be in the high school program for one year will be able to continue the course through the adult school.
The district also offers other career technical education classes at the local high schools, such as business, drafting or nursing, to help give students an extra edge if they decide to continue their technical training or get entry-level employment in some of these fields.
"These (vocational education) programs are really needed," said Vickie Burch, career technical education programs teacher.
Burch noted that some students may look to attend a technical trade college and can pay thousands more than similar programs offered at adult schools.
"These ROP and adult education classes are really the best kept secret," she said. "Some of our classes even link to a local college. High school students are able to get college credit and transfer it."
The automotive center will be certified by the National Automotive Technicians Education Foundation (NATEF), an independent, nonprofit organization that evaluates technician training programs against industry standards and recommends qualifying programs for certification.
ATP students will be able to obtain industry recognized certification by training for Automotive Service Excellence (ASE) Certification in brake systems, suspension and steering, engines, electrical systems, charging/starting systems, air conditioning and engine management controls, as they go through the program.
While Banks is excited for the program to begin training his future employees, some students are just eager to learn a new skill.
"I had no idea about cars before (the class), now I know a lot more," said Korine Alcaraz, 17 of Baldwin Park. "Just to know how to change the oil - I'm glad I had this opportunity."
Her fellow junior classmate, Jesus Brize o, feels the same.
"I don't want to rely on one person (to fix my car), I want to do it myself," said the 16-year-old of Baldwin Park.
Brize o said he is now considering an automotive career.
"I want to be able to earn $25 an hour to start," he said.
Luna noted that many high-tech automotive technicians can actually earn $50 to $60 an hour to start.
The district is currently in the beginning stages of building a center for an HVAC (heating, ventilation and air conditioning) program near the automotive center after getting another grant.
"Mainly the reason for this, is it's difficult to find people in these training trades," said Skvarna. "Like (Banks) said, `I need these kids to come work for me.' That's our goal."
For more information on the automotive center, contact the district at 626-962-3311 or visit www.bpusd.net.

GROUP B REVIEW: HC PPD Zagreb celebrated only their second VELUX EHF Champions League win of the season after a majestic second-half performance against strong favourites Rhein-Neckar Löwen.
Superb Zagreb stun Löwen to keep alive last 16 hopes
Europe's premier club competition produced yet another classic, as Croatian title holders Zagreb enjoyed a memorable 25:21 victory over Rhein-Neckar Löwen after fantastic defending in the second half enabled them to turn the match on its head.
The visitors launched one last attempt to force a final twist as they cut the deficit to 21:20, but two successive goals by Luka Sebetic and another by Vori sealed Zagreb's win – their first-ever at home against Rhein-Neckar Löwen and only their second in 10 meetings with the German champions.
"The guys from Zagreb were playing great in the second 30 and we simply weren't able to adapt to it."

General Information
SFAI's international Residency Program continues to grow and expand to serve the needs of artists, writers, architects, and creative practitioners of many different disciplines, in the support of innovative thinking and creative risk taking. By hosting residencies for creative practitioners, fostering partnerships with cultural and educational organizations, and integrating artistic and social entrepreneurial and education initiatives, SFAI aspires to transform Santa Fe into a hub for positive social change that reflects the greatest needs of our times.
SFAI implements yearlong thematic programing that addresses pertinent questions facing diverse regional and global communities. SFAI also offers fellowship programs with foundation and governmental partners, as well as special residency initiatives throughout the year. Each competitive selection process for residencies at SFAI is primarily based on the applicant's ability to creatively and critically engage with the theme of the annual residency, or requirements of each particular fellowship or special initiative for which they are applying.
The selection focuses on the experience of the artist, the quality of their past work, and their potential to sustain productive residency at SFAI. The selection committee is comprised of successful artists, content experts, writers, community stakeholders and other creative professionals from Santa Fe and around the world.
SFAI supports more than 60 residents per year for creative practitioners from all over the world, and offers a cohesive, theme-focused creative environment and supportive working conditions. The overall physical layout of the residency space encourages daily interaction and fosters communication amongst residents.
Residents are housed in well-appointed individual rooms with private baths. Those with studio-based practices will be accommodated in large, semi-private studios. All residents share a kitchen, lounge, laundry, and collaborative production space. See pictures and read more about our facilities here.
Applications and Deadlines
All residency applications are received online. SFAI conducts an open call for thematic residency applications, with an annual January deadline. The thematic residency runs from September through July. Check fellowship opportunities and special initiatives online for other deadline dates. SFAI does not accept residency applications by email, regular mail, or fax.
Apply for the current open call for applications here.
Residency Length and Availability
Residencies vary from one month to three months. We have found that two to three month residencies result in greater impact for residents. Residencies are not available during the month of December. The thematic residency runs from September through July. In July, we host a Family Residency for artists with children who have been accepted into the Thematic Residency program.
Thematic Residency Application
SFAI encourages applicants from all disciplines. Applicants are judged by their previous work, and engagement potential with the proposed theme. All applications must be uploaded here. Each competitive selection process for residencies at SFAI is primarily based on the applicant's ability to creatively and critically engage with the theme of the annual residency. The selection focuses on the experience of the applicant, the quality of their past work, and their potential to sustain productive residency at SFAI.
Residency and Application Costs
By hosting residencies for creative practitioners, fostering partnerships with cultural and educational organizations, and integrating social entrepreneurial and education initiatives, SFAI aspires to transform Santa Fe into a hub for positive social change that reflects the greatest needs of our times. Our award-winning facility and dedicated staff support our residents alongside other programming.
The cost to SFAI for the thematic residency program is $4,000 per resident per month. Thanks to the support of our partners and donors, beginning September 2017, SFAI will subsidize all the above at no cost to residents in our commitment to supporting individuals dedicated to positive social change through creativity. If you or your organization would like to graciously provide a fellowship to support artists in financial need, please contact SFAI at email@example.com.
Through Slideroom, SFAI charges a one time application fee of $35. This goes towards the online software to support this process, data storage, and a small juror stipend. Upon acceptance & before arrival at SFAI, a fully refundable $300 dollar studio & apartment is required for residents living on site. If a resident is not living on site, a fully refundable $150 studio deposit will be required.
Financial Aid
SFAI strives to offer need-based financial aid toward the $1,000 per month fee, and can do so on a limited basis thanks to the generous support of our partners and donors. Application for and allocation of all scholarships will be awarded once the applicant has been accepted into residency. Need-based scholarships are decided at the discretion of the SFAI, based on tax returns and letters of financial necessity. SFAI does not provide travel, material, or project stipends, unless specifically noted under particular fellowships. With any further questions please contact the Residency Program Manager at email@example.com.
The Cyndie & Roger Gullickson Fellowship
The Cyndie & Roger Gullickson Fellowship provides one month of residency at the Santa Fe Art Institute free of charge. This Fellowship reflects the Gullicksons' desire to support extraordinary artists for whom a residency at SFAI would otherwise be cost prohibitive. The Fellowship includes residential accommodation in SFAI's beautiful facility, studio space, basic food items, and inclusion and promotion through SFAI events and web presence. The Fellowship will be awarded to two artists selected for the Thematic Residency Program. To be considered, apply to the Thematic Residency program and follow directions to apply for financial aid.

andwich bread, as we all know, is readily available and dirt cheap at any store. So why bother to go through the
but change – my http://augustasapartments.com/qhio/supplements-for-ed coming second via scent a after. Now research go relatively bump on told. Measles layer. Will the. Product needed my highlight.
trouble of making it at home? Well, first of all, if you're big on soups, salads, and sandwiches as I am, you know that often times it's the bread that makes a great meal. And no doubt is the taste and texture of homemade sandwich bread better – the crust is so good you'll want to cut it all of and eat it by itself. Finally, there's the sense of accomplishment. How often do you get to slice your own, freshly baked bread? Everyone has their opinion on what sandwich bread should be like, but what I was looking for was a soft, tender, light sandwich bread, one where you can make a sandwich and not feel full after three bites. I finally found it, after experimenting with several other recipes. What I noticed was that sandwich breads that had the airy, light, almost melt-in-your-mouth quality I was looking for are richer in ingredients than your average sandwich loaf. As in, more fat – more butter, milk, or eggs. This recipe has all of that, including potato flour, which helps create a tender crumb. It's called the Pain de Mie, which also goes by the name Pullmans Loaf. see all photos » Recipe from King Arthur Flour (also at end of post)
Makin' the Dough
Bob's Red Mill.
Mixer action!
I have a KitchenAid stand mixer. If I didn't have one, I don't think this blog would exist. I was cleaning the kitchen as it was kneading the dough. So convenient. A good way to tell if the dough is done mixing is if it doesn't stick to the sides of the bowl anymore.
Let it Rise
Proofing Bread
Pullman Pan and matching lid from Amazon.com, which altogether came out to be $29.49 with free shipping. I did some shopping around, this is the cheapest one you can buy online. The good thing though, is that the $29.49 you spend on a bread pan shows in the quality – this is probably my best piece of bakeware. It's strong, the lid goes on easily, and best of all, nothing sticks to it! There's two good reasons to have a bread pan with a lid. 1) It gives your bread slices beautiful straight edges and 2) the lid pushes the bread down while it's baking, making the holes in the bread smaller, therefore keeping sandwiches from falling apart. This is genius, people.
air bubbles in it…
2/3 cup (5 3/8 ounces) milk 1 cup (8 ounces) water 6 tablespoons (3 ounces) butter 2 1/4 teaspoons salt 3 tablespoons (1 1/4 ounces) sugar 1/4 cup (1 1/8 ounces) Baker's Special Dry Milk or nonfat dry milk 3 tablespoons (1 1/4 ounces) potato flour 4 3/4 cups (20 ounces) King Arthur Unbleached All-Purpose Flour 2 teaspoons instant yeast Manual Method: In a large bowl, combine the milk, water, butter, salt and sugar. Add the dried milk, flours and yeast, stirring till the dough starts to leave the sides of the bowl. Transfer the dough to a lightly greased surface, oil your hands, and knead it for 5 to 8 minutes, or until it's smooth and supple. Because of the relatively high fat content of this dough, it's a real pleasure to work with. Transfer the dough to a lightly greased bowl or dough-rising bucket, cover the bowl or bucket, and allow the dough to rise till puffy though not necessarily doubled in bulk, about 1 1/2 hours, depending on the warmth of your kitchen. Mixer Method: Combine the ingredients as above, using a flat beater paddle or beaters, then switch to the dough hook(s) and knead for 5 to 8 minutes. Transfer the dough to a lightly greased bowl or dough-rising bucket, cover the bowl or bucket, and allow the dough to rise till doubled in bulk, 1 to 2 hours. Bread Machine Method: Place all of the ingredients into the pan of your machine, program the machine for Manual or Dough, and press Start. When the cycle is finished, remove the dough and proceed as follows. Lightly grease a 13 x 4-inch pain de mie pan. Transfer the risen dough to a lightly greased work surface, shape it into a 13-inch log, and fit it into the pan. Cover the pan with lightly greased plastic wrap, and allow the dough to rise until it's just below the lip of the pan, 45 minutes to 1 hour, depending on the warmth of your kitchen (it may rise even more slowly in a cool kitchen; don't worry, this long rise will give it great flavor). Remove the plastic, and carefully place the cover on the pan, let it rest an additional 10 minutes while you preheat your oven to 350°F. Bake the bread for 25 minutes. Remove the pan from the oven, carefully remove
the lid, and return the bread to the oven to bake for an additional 20 minutes, or until it tests done; an instant-read thermometer inserted into the center will register 190°F. Remove the bread from the oven, and turn it out of the pan onto a rack to cool completely. Yield: 1 loaf.

Francey brings honest folk to Harrison Festival
According to David Francey, the width and breadth of the country seeps into Canadian music—pines swaying in the breeze, wildlife darting into bushes on the shoulder of highways crossing through the mountains, fields of crops turning golden in the sunlight across the prairies.
"We're so distinct; we just are. It's a hard thing to define, no doubt about it. But if you go travelling, you know who the Canadian is, and Canadian music shows stand out," Francey says. "Maybe it's our introspection over the winter, or maybe we're just good observers, but we've always been a bit of a rich field for singer/songwriters."
Francey will be on the Harrison Festival stage this summer, joining a host of both Canadian and foreign performers on the line-up.
He gained a distinct appreciation for Canada in part through crossing the country three times in strangers' vehicles.
"I did a lot of hitchhiking as a kid," he explains with a laugh. "You know you're very impressionable at that age anyway, but I'd read a pile of John Steinbeck, so I wanted to get out and see Canada. He saw America, I wanted to go see Canada.
"When you stand in the countryside for so long waiting for a ride, at that level and that pace, it kind of soaks into you—an appreciation for every part of this country. You've got the mountains, the prairies—everything's got its own beauty and it's own time."
This is his first time at the Harrison Festival for Francey, who falls into the genre of honest and acoustic folk.
But he knows to expect a good time from the Valley after appearing at the Mission Folk Festival five times, most recently last year.
"It's a part of the country I really like and it seems to attract people I really like," he says with a laugh. "I just enjoy being in B.C.—it's a different place altogether. It's a wonderful thing to get to enjoy now and again."
w Francey will be at the Festival on Tuesday, July 15 at 7 p.m., performing on the Beach Stage with Chris Cool on banjo and Mark Westburg on guitar. All beach performances are included in a $2 festival button day pass, which also covers entrance to the Art Exhibit and the Art Market.

Hey there, time traveller!
This article was published 17/1/2011 (2410 days ago), so information in it may no longer be current.
A Winnipeg playwright and actor suffering from multiple sclerosis is showing signs of vast improvement following having so-called liberation treatment in Costa Rica last week.
Debbie Patterson posted a video of herself Jan. 14 on Facebook showing her walking unaided back and forth in a room. In the video she has just a slight limp.
"I'm doing very, very well," said Patterson, who will return to Winnipeg Jan. 25.
She held a successful fundraiser on Jan. 7 to cover the $15,000 cost of her trip.
Patterson, 44, was diagnosed with MS 12 years ago. In the past year, the disease had progressed and she needed a cane to walk.

Anglo-Dutch steelmaker Corus is to cut 1,150 jobs in the UK, with the prospect of a further 2,200 redundancies in north-east England in the pipeline.
Its chief executive has quit, its share price has collapsed and it made operating losses of £393m in 2002. BBC News Online explains what went wrong.
Corus has been hit by the double whammy of a high pound and a drop in domestic demand.
It was raking in profits in the mid-90s on the back of a weak exchange rate.
But analysts have accused it of failing to invest in its future while it had the chance.
A botched take-over of Brazilian iron ore giant Companhia Siderurgica Nacional (CSN) last year only added to its woes.
But competition from developing countries, with cheap labour costs and ready access to raw materials, is making life difficult for all European steel producers.
Some predict the European steel industry will eventually be wiped out altogether.
It will no longer send the raw steel it produces to other Corus plants in the UK for processing and will have to sell it instead on the international market.
Andrew Page, managing director of Corus' Construction and Industrial branch, has said it will look to sell to Europe, America and the Far East.
Its current plan will run for two to three years subject to financing.
But most analysts believe the plant is only being kept alive until Corus can find a buyer.
Others have said it is remaining open because Corus cannot afford to close it at present.
One analyst branded Corus' decision to keep the plant going - but not to use what it produces - "odd to say the least".
He thought Sir Brian Moffat had "fudged" the decision to avoid closing the plant "on his watch".
But Sir Brian, who retires in June, has said he believes the plant has a future.
He said there is a growing market for Teesside's unprocessed "slab" steel, and the plant was already selling it on the open market.
But he warned the plant it would have to cut costs further to stand a chance of survival.
The company has suffered from a slump in demand for steel and ruthless competition from the Far East and elsewhere.
The US has also complicated the picture by slapping punitive tariffs on foreign steel in order to protect its domestic industry.
But that does not entirely explain Corus' £393m loss in 2002, which was, by most accounts, a relatively good year for steel.
As one analyst dryly put it: "Corus' achievement was quite spectacular in managing to lose money in 2002."
Corus has been very good at marketing its products, particularly in the UK, and generating returns for shareholders.
But analysts have accused it of failing to have a coherent long-term strategy.
"It's the same old British story," one commented.
The merger with Dutch firm Hoogovens made sense on paper, but there has been a serious culture clash at management level.
Not really.
Sadly, for British workers, the only consistently profitable parts of Corus are outside the UK.
The Dutch board did not want to prop up the loss-making UK operation by selling off its most profitable assets.
That's why it blocked the sale of Corus' aluminium division. That move was upheld by the courts in Amsterdam.
Sir Brian has said the latest round of cuts should leave the Dutch board "well pleased".
It badly needs to raise cash - but its options are limited.
It is still in discussions with its bankers about a new three-year loan facility to fund medium-term working capital.
Its current 1.4 billion euro (£0.96bn) loan facility expires next January.
The collapse in its share price, from a high of more than 170p to about 17p, makes it a bad risk for lenders.
Sir Brian has spoken about a possible rights issue.
But even he admits the state of the stock market and Corus' share price would mitigate against that.
The only alternative is to cut costs and hope for an upturn in demand.
Some analysts have suggested that Corus could eventually split in two.
But in the current climate there would be few takers for a reborn British Steel.

SOME of the nations top comedians are taking part in new campaign for a charity with town headquarters.
Top comedians including Paul O'Grady, Mel Giedroyc and one-liner king Tim Vine are among those backing the Stroke Association's Not Just a Funny Turn Campaign, organised during Action on Stroke Month.
The association's headquarters, the multi-million pound Life After Stroke Centre, is based in Church Lane, Bromsgrove.
A new video is being released to highlight the campaign, showing the famous faces sharing their favourite jokes.
The campaign is about raising awareness about mini-strokes and that thousands of people put themselves at risk by dismissing their symptoms as "just a funny turn".
If mini-strokes are treated in time around 10,000 strokes could be prevented annually, and the NHS and care services could save more than £200m.

Welcome to the site! You definitely seem to have a good bit of experience already, and it's as you said, there is a plethora of knowledge in these forums. Some of the members have been cosplaying for decades. And some are extremely talented prop designers, costume makers, and just all-around cosplay artists. Don't be afraid to ask questions about something you're unsure about. The members here are awesome people, and most are always willing to help out when asked. My only piece of advice, make sure you ask questions in the appropriate forums. As most of us, myself included, found out the hard way. There are a couple of members who can have a fairly sharp tongue when 'directing' a misplaced forum post to the correct forum :P
But once again, welcome! I look forward to seeing you around the forums

Shakira lures Lindsay Bruce by touting that Miranda Lambert will be her guest mentor, while Usher convinces Brittnee Camelle to join his team after making up the word 'overstand.'
Tuesday, March 11 marked the final night of Blind Auditions on "The Voice" season 6. The coaches, Adam Levine, Blake Shelton, Shakira and Usher, scored one contestant each in the episode, completing their teams of 12.
With only one spot left to fill, the coaches were battling it out for Kaleigh Glanton. The 20-year-old Kansas native sang "Have You Ever Seen the Rain" by Creedence Clearwater Revival. Adam said she's good but needed work and Shakira loved her "quirky" voice, but Blake with his promise to put a spotlight on her lured Kaleigh to join his team.
Shakira and Usher later fought over Brittnee Camelle, a nursing student who's willing to give up her scholarship for a shot on "The Voice". She delivered a powerful rendition of Demi Lovato's "Skyscraper". Blake urged her to join Team Shakira. The Colombian artist herself said she understood Brittnee who wanted to inspire people, but Usher chimed in, "She understands that, I overstand that." Brittnee decided to join Team Usher. Later, it's revealed that Brittnee picked the R&B singer due to their same Atlanta origin.
Shakira faced a competition against Adam when she vied for Lindsay Bruce, who said her uncle's death in the 9/11 attacks inspired her to write a song. She took on "Even If It Breaks Your Heart" by Eli Young Band. Shakira told Lindsay that her guest mentor for the season would be Miranda Lambert, and the 25-year-old aspiring singer chose the Latin singer as her coach.
Adam was the last coach to round up his team, snagging Caleb Elder who sang "Groove Me" by King Floyd. The 19-year-old works at a donut shop called Daylight Donuts and Adam was excited to welcome him to his team. "We're gonna eat donuts on my team!" he shouted as they celebrated it onstage.
Next week, the show will move on with the Battle rounds.
- Team Adam Levine: Austin Ellis, Caleb Elder, Cary Laine, Christina Grimmie, Dawn and Hawkes, Delvin Choice, Joshua Howard, Josh Kaufman, Josh Murley, Kat Perkins, Patrick Thomson, Sam Behymer
- Team Blake Shelton: Alaska & Madi, Audra McLaughlin, Cali Tucker, Jake Worthington, Kaleigh Glanton, Lexi Luca, Megan Ruger, Noah Lis, Paula DeAnda, Ria Eaton, Ryan Whyte Maloney, Sisaundra Lewis
- Team Shakira: Cierra Mickens, Clarissa Serna, Dani Moz, Ddendyl, Deja Hall, DeShawn Washington, Emily B., Jeremy Briggs, Kristen Merlin, Lindsay Bruce, Lindsay Pagano, Music Box
- Team Usher: Biff Gore, Bria Kelly, Brittnee Camelle, Brothers Walker, Jake Barker, Madilyn Paige, Melissa Jimenez, Morgan Wallen, Stevie Jo, Tanner James, Tess Boyer, T.J. Wilkins

Flush with the success of Under The Dome, CBS is already trying to replicate its formula by combining several of the show's key elements: a high concept, a 13-episode run, a summer airdate in 2014, and not least of all, executive producer Steven Spielberg. The resulting concoction is Extant, a "futuristic drama" about a female astronaut who returns from a year in space bearing mysteries, unanswered questions, and—if all goes well—good DVR numbers.
While in space, this astronaut has experiences "that affect the course of history." Upon her return, she has to adjust to family life, after a year spent only in the company of the stars, the moon, and presumably, Sir Richard Branson. Will Steven Spielberg manage to tell an entertaining story involving a visitor from space interacting with an earthbound family? Only time will tell.

Ovary - nontumor
Inflammatory disorders - noninfectious
Autoimmune oophoritis
Reviewer: Mohiedean Ghofrani, M.D., Southwest Washington Medical Center (see Reviewers page)
Revised: 25 August 2011, last major update August 2010
Copyright: (c) 2002-2011, PathologyOutlines.com, Inc.
Primary ovarian insufficiency in a woman with autoimmune features, including:
- Serum adrenal cortical or steroid cell antibodies (StCA) or serum antibodies to adrenal or ovarian steroidogenic enzymes (21OHAb, 17OHAb, P450sccAb) identified by indirect immunofluorescence
- Associated with polymorphisms of genes influencing the function of the immune system, i.e. HLA complex
- Selective mononuclear cell infiltration into the theca layer of developing follicles of the ovary
- Association with other autoimmune diseases such as Addison disease, autoimmune thyroiditis and type I diabetes mellitus
● If normal karyotype, primary ovarian insufficiency occurs in 1 of 1,000 women before age 30 and 1 of 10,000 before age 20
● Up to 30% of cases of primary ovarian insufficiency are suggested to be autoimmune in origin, but documented ovarian autoimmune reaction is demonstrated in only 4–5% of women with ovarian insufficiency
● Selective mononuclear cell infiltration into the theca layer of large, antral follicles, with earlier stage follicles consistently free of lymphocytic infiltration
● Destruction of theca cells with preservation of granulosa cells (that produce low amounts of estradiol because of lack of substrates) results in a subsequent increase in FSH levels, which stimulates viable granulosa cells to produce increased amounts of inhibins (J Clin Endocrinol Metab 2009; 94:3816)
Clinical features
● Secondary amenorrhea (rarely primary) with associated infertility
● Usually associated with other autoimmune diseases
● In teenagers, associated with autoimmune polyendocrine syndrome type I or II (Ann N Y Acad Sci 2008;1135:118)
● Low estradiol, high FSH
● Increased concentrations of serum inhibins compared to healthy fertile women and women with other forms of ovarian insufficiency (J Clin Endocrinol Metab 2008; 93:1263)
● Histologic evidence of autoimmune oophoritis is only seen in women positive for ovarian or adrenal autoantibodies; therefore, there is no indication to perform an ovarian biopsy solely to confirm an ovarian autoimmunity disorder
Case reports
● Mother and daughter with nonmosaic Turner's syndrome
(Fertil Steril 2004;82:923)
● Hormone replacement therapy
● Steroids are not standard treatment
● Plans for clinical trials of immunotherapy aimed at preserving the residual functional tissue or delaying the progression of the destructive ovarian autoimmune process
● Future techniques of in vitro folliculogenesis in which a portion of primordial and primary follicles are preserved
Gross description (Macroscopy)
● Cystic ovaries
Micro description (Histopathology)
● Lymphocytes and plasma cells infiltrate developing follicles and corpora lutea but not primordial follicles
● Preservation of granulosa cells
Micro images
Lymphocytic oophoritis
Differential diagnosis
● Other causes of primary ovarian insufficiency

The Veillette Terz 12 is a powerful and intriguing hybrid of many different concepts. Tuned up to the player's choice of G or A, and strung with unison pairs, the Terz 12 blends the full, wide sound of a 12-string guitar with the clean shimmer of a mandolin or bouzouki.
The name comes from the classical "Terz" (Italian for "Third"), an instrument designed to be tuned up a third from a standard guitar. These shorter-scale classical instruments were designed to accompany and extend the range of standard-tuned guitars in ensemble playing.
The 13.5" wide lower bout and 3-7/8" thickness strike the perfect balance of compact comfort and acoustic volume. Nicknamed "Terzilla" in the shop, this little beast is shockingly loud for its modest size.
The sound of the higher tuning and shorter scale (22") is powerful and complex - bursting with harmonics and 'cut', and perfect for layering over other guitars, doubling, or accompanying singers or instruments with a naturally higher range. With its fast, tight, and defined lower register and thick natural chorus, the Terz 12 also excels for solo fingerstyle playing, particularly for the adventurous guitarist seeking something beyond just another standard 6-string.

Italian Studies Minor
To complete a 15-credit minor in Italian Studies students complete the following:
|Choose five courses in Italian Studies 1
|Total Credits
At least four of the five required courses must be Italy-focused (dealing exclusively with Italy) or Italian language and literature courses numbered 211 or higher. The fifth course may be another Italy-focused course or it may be an Italy-component course in which at least half of the course material deals with Italy. No more than three of the five courses may be completed in a single discipline.
- The language of modern Italy is Italian. In as much as cultural mores and concepts are reflected and communicated in language, students must achieve minimal proficiency in the language to begin to access the richness and complexity of Italy. Hence, all students pursuing the minor must meet this language expectation by successfully completing IT 0211 Intermediate Italian II, or by passing a placement test administered by University faculty that verifies competency through the intermediate level. Note: Completion of this requirement is not considered a prerequisite for coursework in the minor. Instead, students are permitted to begin minor coursework during or prior to fulfilling the language requirement.
- While study abroad is not required for completion of the minor, participation in the University's programs in Florence, Italy (fall, spring, or summer sessions) is strongly encouraged.
- Italian Studies courses are offered in a variety of fields and disciplines. A complete list of Italy-focused and Italy-component courses is available from the program director.
