Texas Anglers Alerted To Possible Coastal Freeze Events and Fishing Closures
AUSTIN — As Texas approaches the winter season and temperatures drop, many anglers continue to enjoy great fishing on coastal bays. However, when temperatures on the coast are predicted to fall below 32°F for three or more days, the Texas Parks and Wildlife Department (TPWD) executive director has the authority to close some areas to saltwater fishing until the threat from the freeze event is over.
When a closure occurs, this doesn't mean all fishing is closed. It simply means that a few deepwater harbors and canals may be closed to angling if freezing conditions warrant it. For a complete list of these thermal refuge areas subject to closure go to the TPWD Saltwater Freeze Events web page.
In addition to killing game fish in shallow bay waters, these hard freeze events can cause surviving fish to congregate in a few deeper areas where they become sluggish and prone to capture. These are the areas the department may temporarily close.
"The high mortality that a freeze can cause may deplete fish stocks for years," said Robin Riechers, TPWD coastal fisheries division director. "Protection of the surviving fish during the few days when they are especially vulnerable to capture would likely shorten the time period for overall recovery of coastal species, especially spotted seatrout."
In February 2011, for the first time since TPWD adopted the thermal refuge regulation in 2005, the Texas coast had freezing temperatures long enough to enact temporary fishing restrictions. This winter, biologists hope not to have a freeze event that would cause TPWD to close thermal refuges.
However, since air temperatures have already dipped into the 30's in November, anglers should be aware of the possibility of another cold winter with the potential for temporary restrictions to fishing. Due to weather forecasting, there may be a short window of time to get the message out before the closure is in effect.
With the boom in social media like Facebook and Twitter, TPWD can now disseminate information quickly and efficiently to users of that technology. However for the rest of the public, news media is the next best option. Additionally, TPWD will posts signs near the closed areas. TPWD will use all these methods to try and get the word out about any closures.
What can anglers do to help protect the resource during freeze events? By adhering to the regulations and practicing conservation during the freeze, anglers can help ensure a continued healthy future for Texas coastal fisheries.
Game fish, including spotted seatrout, red drum, sharks, snook and tripletail may only be taken by pole and line, and it is unlawful to take or attempt to take a fish with one or more hooks attached to a line or artificial lure used in a manner to foul-hook a fish (snagging or jerking). It is also unlawful to collect stunned fish including the use of a cast net or dip net.
Anglers and coastal residents can report fish kills or large numbers of sluggish or cold-stunned fish 24 hours a day, seven days a week, by contacting TPWD's Law Enforcement Communications office at (281) 842-8100 or (512) 389-4848.

SEATTLE, Washington — There is a certain risk involved in running the Color Run. It's a lot of fun, but…
"I had blue boogers for a week," said Erika Schultz, a friend and fellow photographer who joined me in shooting the Run when it hit Seattle. So what is a Color Run? And what makes it so super duper über popular that they're being run all over the country?
The Color Run is a 5k run. Pretty straightforward. Everyone wears white, and at every kilometer, volunteers armed with buckets of brightly colored, and completely safe, powder pelt the sweaty runners in a kaleidoscope of color. It's like a Holi celebration. I can't remember the last time I saw so many giddy people laughing so hard. It's infectious.
"I don't think I've seen so many people genuinely joyful," said Schultz, a staff photog at the Seattle Times. "Totally blissed out. They didn't have a care in the world."
The charity run ends with an explosion of color as runners toss up great handfuls of colored chalk, creating an impressionistic dust storm. Given the fun, it's no surprise the runs often sell out. Ask the folks in Portland, Oregon, which is hosting the latest race on Saturday. The run has spread to 21 cities nationwide and even jumped across the Pacific to Australia. It's so much fun that others have joined the craze, including the Graffiti Run and Color Me Rad.
A 5k run that's gone viral. And all it took was some powdered chalk.
"It's not about the run," said Erika. "I think it's about being a human canvas. Your body becomes art. You become art, a big impressionistic human painting."

While law enforcement officials await confirmation that the charred human remains found Tuesday in the burned down Angelus Oaks cabin belong to fugitive Christopher Dorner, the social media buzz growing around the manhunt continues.
"RIP Christopher Dorner" pages have been created on Facebook, as have fake Twitter accounts posing as Dorner. They carry messages of relief, disgust and -- for those who have supported the alleged killer for what they believe was a sound cause -- admiration.
On one "RIP Christopher Dorner" Facebook page created around 10 p.m. Tuesday, the creator posted: "Heroes get remembered but legends never die." The page, created with Dorner dubbed a public figure, also touts Dorner as a "true American Patriot."
Another Facebook page, called "We Are All Christopher Dorner" said, "The spirit of Chris #Dorner will live on forever in our hearts, as an eternal flame - symbolic of the will to stand up in an attempt to eradicate those who would seek to oppress us, by any means necessary, when no one else would."
Then just after 9 a.m. Wednesday, at least one person created the "Christopher Dorner Death Conspiracy" Facebook page claiming that "all the facts of this do not add up."
Another supporter of Dorner tweeted the Daily News directly in response to coverage of the apparent fiery end to the week-long manhunt under the Twitter handle @FakeChrisDorner: "@ladncitydesk A happy ending is people burned alive by the government just like #Waco? Disguisting. #Dorner #TeamDorner"
The Dorner supporter is referring to the Waco Massacre in Texas, a 50-day standoff betweenthe federal law enforcement and the cult group Branch Davidians. The siege ended when a fire erupted at the compound. Seventy-six men, women and children, including sect leader, David Koresh, died in the fire.
Authorities have hesitated to declare Tuesday's gun fight and fire the end of Dorner, pending forensic reports that can identify the body found in the destroyed cabin.
The fire erupted Tuesday afternoon after a man deputies suspect was Dorner got into a shooting exchange with federal Fish and Wildlife wardens, as well as sheriff's deputies.
Dorner, a former Los Angeles Police Department officer and ex-U.S. Navy reservist, is suspected to have killed four people and wounding two during a nine-day rampage where he vowed in an 11,000-word manifesto that he'd seek revenge on the LAPD and their families for what he believed was his wrongful termination from the department.


text: This one's for the ladies. In years past, the market for Women's Motorcycle Jackets has been little more than re-purposed Men's jackets that were designed with a few different color options, flowers, and butterflies. Often times, the functionality was average, the features were "eh," and the cut was anything but ergonomic. However, new advancements in motorcycle jackets for women have really afforded great strides in the right direction. Finding proper ladies' motorcycle jackets is now a much more robust experience that allows for a selection that best suits individual needs, styles, and performance preferences.

Thought You`d all find this interesting
By David Park
With the NBA season roughly a month and a half away, here's a look at what to look for from the rookie class in my first installment of Top 10 Rookies, Preseason Edition. Enjoy.
Chris Paul
Photo: Jennifer Pottheiser/NBAE/Getty Images
1) PG Chris Paul - New Orleans Hornets
Sure, the Hornets will most likely be one of the league's doormats and right back in the lottery again next season, but they now have a a young playmaker to build around for the future. Add in a healthy Jamal Magloire and an improving SG in J.R. Smith and you have some real building blocks. Plus with the addition of European sharpshooter Arvydas Macijauskas, look for Chris Paul to put up some quality numbers, especially with Speedy Claxton as the only other playmaker on this team and Dan Dickau in Boston. Look for Paul to really take advantage of this great opportunity.
2) PG Deron Williams - Utah Jazz
Andrei Kirilenko should start the season in full health, Carlos Boozer should be more comfortable with his new teammates; all the pieces are in place for Deron Williams to have a stellar rookie season. Williams has never been a statistical beast but look for the Jazz to improve drastically from last season in the winning column. Williams is hard nosed, plays great defense and will create easier scoring opportunities for everyone else on the floor. Though Williams has the pressure of creating his own legacy in the shadow of the great John Stockton, look for Williams to instantly make the Jazz an improved team.
3) PG Sarunas Jasikevicius - Indiana Pacers
This former Terrapin and two-time MVP in Europe should be an instant contributor to the Pacers this season. He is a seasoned professional, and being technically a rookie in the NBA, he should benefit from being on a loaded Pacers team. They will also be getting Ron Artest back from his season-long suspension and a picked up another solid rookie in Danny Granger. The Pacers will sorely miss Reggie Miller's leadership and 3-point shooting, but look for Jasikevicius to team up with Jamal Tinsley to form one of the best PG rotations in the league and to help compensate for Reggie's 3-point shooting. His stats maybe not jump out at you this season but look for Jasikevicius to be an integral part of Indiana's success this season. He's just a winner.
4) SG Rashad McCants - Minnesota Timberwolves
Okay we all know you can't figure this guy out but lets be honest, neither have most defenders. When he's focused he is a deadly scorer that coaches must account for. The Timberwolves are welcoming seven new players and the shooting guard position is wide open due to the departures of Latrell Sprewell and Fred Hoiberg. McCants will have every chance to win the starting job at shooting guard and even if he does not start, there is no reason why he should not be playing at least 25 minutes per game this season. Look for McCants to put up solid offensive numbers and if he can improve on his defense, look for him to become the starter in Minnesota for many seasons to come.
5) PF Ike Diogu - Golden State Warriors
Diogu should be great for the Warriors. Troy Murphy and Adonal Foyle are both very active on the boards but Diogu will bring an added tenacity of the boards that the Warriors' frontline has lacked. Diogu does not need the ball to score and with Baron Davis, Jason Richardson and Mike Dunleavy already entrenched in their positions; he will be welcomed with open arms so they can freely jack up jumpers knowing they have a great offensive rebounder down low. The Warriors finished last season very strong and look for them to pick up where they left off last season with Diogu getting a healthy share of minutes.
6) PF Charlie Villanueva - Toronto Raptors
The most highly criticized lottery pick is ready to cook some crow for everyone. After flirting with the NBA after high school, one of the best things to happen to Villanueva was to get labeled as a second round pick by scouts after his private workout he had with eventual first round pick Ndudi Ebi. Villanueva decided to go to college and work on his game under Jim Calhoun. Villanueva has always had incredible talent both inside and on the perimeter, he just needed some seasoning in college and some frontcourt studs (Okafor, Josh Boone, Rudy Gay) to push him in practice and to receive some solid coaching. On a struggling Raptors team, playing time should be there in abundance for Charlie despite playing the same position as the team's centerpiece: Chris Bosh. Both players versatility should allow for plenty of minutes for Charlie with a big lineup on the floor, or with Bosh playing center as he has in past years.
7) PF Sean May - Charlotte Bobcats
The reigning NCAA Final Four's most outstanding player did not miss a step this summer as he led the Rocky Mountain Revue in scoring and rebounding in willing the Bobcats to a league-best 4-2 record. Some scouts still feel he is not athletic and long enough to be a legitimate post threat in the NBA, but he is winning over critics with every performance. He has also made good on his promise to get in better shape and slim down for the upcoming season according to recent reports out of Charlotte. Combined with Emeka Okafor's shot blocking and rebounding tenacity, look for these two to help Charlotte improve on their 18 win season. He's expected to be back at full strength once the season begins following recent arthroscopic surgery on his knee.
8) C Andrew Bogut - Milwaukee Bucks
The overall number one pick in last year's draft will be the target of many opposing defenses, though the trio of Michael Redd, Bobby Simmons and Desmond Mason will get the lion's share of attention. Bogut played admirably for the Australian National team in the Olympics in 2004, yet I am not sold on Bogut being able to out play NBA competition on a nightly basis. However, Bogut should get plenty of opportunities to play this season and if he can adjust to the athleticism and overall physical nature of the NBA game, look for Bogut to be a consistent force for the Bucks for years to come.
9) PF Fabricio Oberto - San Antonio Spurs
Who is Fabricio Oberto you ask? Oberto has been playing basketball professionally for the last 12 years yet he is only 30 years old and has a lot left in his tank. He has been an integral contributor for the Argentinian national team along with NBA star Manu Ginobili of the San Antonio Spurs and lesser-known NBA players such as Carlos Defino of the Detroit Pistons and Andres Nocioni of the Chicago Bulls. These were the core players along with Luis Scola that took home the gold in the 2004 Olympics and though Oberto will be sharing minutes with Robert Horry off the bench for the Spurs. Oberto is a savvy and efficient big man who will provide great minutes off the bench for the Spurs as they attempt to repeat as NBA Champs.
10) G Salim Stoudamire - Atlanta Hawks
Scouts shied away from him due to fears about his attitude. But his senior year, he was a model citizen who won numerous games for Arizona. On the court, there are few as passionate as him, or as talented shooting the ball. He can improve upon his play making skills and play better defense, but he can fill up it, point blank. On an Atlanta team that needs all the help it can get, look for Stoudamire to contribute right away unlike Marvin Williams who will need some time until he becomes a regular contributor.

Marine Forum Takes Control to Sea
Shipboard Power Systems Benefit from Rockwell Automation Technology
Just like the famous Navy SEALs, good control and automation solutions don't care if they're on land or water. This is lucky because more traditionally plant-based process control software and hardware is going out to sea on ships, support vessels and oil platforms.
"Our control solutions are being used to support everything from drive systems on diesel-electric ships to emissions monitoring for environmental compliance to on-ship heating and ventilations systems," said Joe Moffa, marine industry manager at Rockwell Automation, who moderated the Marine Industry Forum today at Automation Fair 2012 in Philadephia.
Holistic Approach to Power Needed
For instance, Willie Wagen, director of concept development and innovation in the ship power division at Wartsila Corp., reported that the power plants on ships typically transmit only 34% of the total fuel energy they consume to the actual propellers, and advanced energy management principles, variable-speed drives (VSDs) and hybrid electric and mechanical systems can help.
"A holistic approach is the key to reducing transmission losses in shipboard electric power plants. A modern electric plant on board a ship is the enabler of greater efficiency through the drive train," said Wagen. "Based on the operating profile of a vessel, power plant configurations tightly coupled with integrated ship systems can offer huge reductions in the total losses from the plant. For example, enabling the prime mover to run with a lower RPM or with a higher utilization by using VSDs, optimum efficiency can be achieved in different operational modes. The electric plant can also enable the integration of renewable energy sources, such as wind, solar and heat recovery, as well as other future technologies such as fuel cells and energy storage systems." He added that Wartsila's WIAS econometer software and interface can display and help optimize many of these variables.
CEMS and Transformerless Drives
On the emissions-monitoring front, Joe Miller, global technical consultant for Rockwell Automation's environmental division, reported that, "Ship owners and operators will soon be required to meet the strict emissions reduction and monitoring requirements of the International Marine Organization (IMO) and the new rules detailed in MARPOL 73/78 Annex VI global regulations. These requirements include nitrogen oxide (NOx) reduction on ships constructed as far back as January 1990. Accuracy and verifiable emissions reporting, as well as reporting system uptime, are keys to avoiding fines when docking assets in foreign ports. As regulations become more stringent, processes that were once exempt now find themselves required to account for their impact on the environment. Finding the right solution is paramount."

I posted my comment without reading any previous pages first, that's why I figured I was going to get crucified for FF13 and DA2. Just looking at page 14 there are numerous mentions of both to my surprise. Lots of people also say they didn't like FF12 but I'll say it grew on me a lot. I played through like 80% of it with a close buddy and look back on that as a great experience (which is probably where most of my enjoyment came from). I kinda wanna pick it up now b/c I never even finished it.
Sadly, if FF13 and DA2 didn't have their names/expectations to live up to they would be pretty middle-of-the-road titles but I came into both expecting something revolutionary but getting the bare minimum.
I got my Neo Geo when I was 14 so that kinda shows I'm pretty much a senior citizen when it comes to these forums. ;-)

I came up with the idea and tested it out on my own little family.
It has been such an awesome, amazing, wonderful addition to our mealtimes. I truly love how it has changed the dynamic at our table and how it has connected our
Every December I would struggle to come up with an idea for holiday gifts that my students could make for their families. Some of the obstacles I faced included time, cost, and level of difficulty. Many of my students came from non-traditional homes and would therefore need to produce more than one gift. Also, not all of my students celebrate the same holiday so I needed to come up with something that was versatile.
I did my fair share of snow, snowman, gingerbread, and other winter-themed projects. Knowing that my mother had saved each and every gift I brought home added additional pressure. However, as a parent myself I knew that people don't necessarily want to see some oversized, glittery object presented to them to be displayed and cherished for all eternity. I really wanted to come up with an idea that was practical, personal, and useful.
To quote the Grinch, I puzzled and puzzled till my puzzler was sore and then I thought of something I hadn't before...something perhaps that meant a little bit more.
I am so excited about my latest creation and hope you, your students, and their families will love it too. While it was designed as a holiday present, it could certainly be used at any time of year. They would also make wonderful and affordable gifts for your parent volunteers.

Lung Cancer
3mm stable pulmonary nodule
In June of 2010, I went to the local ER for feeling ill. They performed several tests, including CT scan. I was released feeling better after three bags of IV. I made a follow up appointment with my primary doctor as suggested by ER Doctor. My primary doctor said he noticed something on my CT scan that was 3mm, and wanted me to get another CT scan in 30 days. In August of 2010, I went for that CT scan as suggested by my primary doctor. The results: Stable Pulmonary Nodule.
I don`t smoke. I have been around others that smoke. I smoked maybe a cigarette here and there during my younger years, but NEVER purchase a pack of cigarettes or smoked a pack either. What is next? I have read alot on this subject. Do I share with the family? Or wait for further testing?
Thank you for your question. Being told that you have a pulmonary nodule can cause significant anxiety. However, the majority of incidental pulmonary nodules that are detected tend to be benign. Furthermore, when assessing the risk for a nodule being malignant, we take into consideration several factors including the individual's smoking history, family history of cancers, size and appearance of the nodule. The size of the nodule and your smoking history place you in a lower risk category. I would suggest that you discuss with your health care provider the risks and benefits of continued monitoring of this nodule as guidelines do exist for how this nodule should be managed.

A precision engineered matrix, Combat Powder is the ultimate timed-release protein super-food! Each of the distinct protein sources found within Combat Powder digest at varying rates - because of this unique feature, amino acids not only flood into the bloodstream within minutes after consumption, but will also continuously be "trickle fed" to your muscles for up to 8 hours afterward!
What's In Combat Powder?
Combat's Powerful Protein Sources:
- Whey Protein Isolate: Highest available yield of protein, gram for gram, of any whey protein source, WPI absorbs quickly into the muscle tissues, and has immune-boosting properties to protect the body system during periods of intense training.
- Partially Hydrolyzed Whey Protein: Hydrolyzed whey is protein that's been broken down into fast-absorbing peptides. The fastest absorbing of all forms of whey, hydrolyzed whey hits the bloodstream first, providing a rapid infusion of muscle-building amino acids.
- Micellar Casein: Very slow-digesting, micellar casein has the capability of slowly infusing amino acids over several hours, protecting muscle tissue from breakdown over time. There is no substitute for the anti-catabolic effects of micellar casein.
- Whey Protein Concentrate: Closer to the whole food source than other whey proteins, concentrate contains real food subfractions such as alpha-lactoglobulins and lactoferrins, with specific immune-boosting and muscle-building properties.
- Egg Albumen: Highly bio-available and well-tolerated by most individuals, egg albumen has a high BCAA content and arginine. Egg albumen is a powerful contributor to hormone production and the muscle-building process.
Combat's Powerful Digestive Enzyme Blend:
Digestive enzymes break down food along the digestive tract so that nutrients can be absorbed into the bloodstream. Combat contains 60 mg of a Digestive Enzyme Blend to aid in the digestion and absorption of the key muscle-building proteins contained herein. The body cannot absorb what it cannot break down. The added Digestive Enzyme Blend ensures maximum utilization of Combat's muscle-building protein component.
Suggested Use

For Men: As a dietary supplement, mix 2 scoops (providing 48 grams of protein) with 8-12 fl oz of cold water or any beverage you prefer. Consume 2-3 times a day for optimal muscle growth.

I love hamburgers and since I recently relocated to the Lone Star state I had to create a burger that had a tex-mex feel.
This is a combination of Louisiana spices mixed with a little Hawaiian flare.
Crab cakes, crab rangoon, crab au gratin--any other words anything with crab is a favorite of mine. With this recipe the won ton is replaced by the Asian flavored hamburger and grilled.

Home opener spoiled as 'pen can't hold off Reds
Cards relievers yield nine runs in ninth after Garcia's impressive start
ST. LOUIS -- Perhaps it was cloaked in all the attention paid to pageantry of Opening Day in St. Louis, but Monday's home opener was much more than stirring introductions and poignant remembrances. It was -- after all the ceremony and celebration -- the start of a 19-game season series between clubs pegged by almost all prognosticators to be the division's best.
The anticipation of a new season indeed wore away amid the reality that the Reds, who finished nine games in front of the Cardinals last year, will again be formidable division opponents. By scoring in each of the final four innings, Cincinnati shaved away a deficit off a St. Louis bullpen that continues to seek stability sans Jason Motte.
The game unraveled with Mitchell Boggs on the mound in the ninth, as Cincinnati scored nine times to turn a tie game into a 13-4 blowout in front of the biggest regular-season crowd (47,345) in Busch Stadium history. An inning earlier, Cincinnati had tied the game off hard-throwing righty Trevor Rosenthal.
Both Rosenthal and Boggs have been thrust into new late-inning roles as Motte's elbow heals, and neither transition has gone all that smoothly.
"Whenever you lose a guy like that, it's tough on everybody," Boggs said. "At the same time, we're professionals and we have a job to do. This team has shown time and time again that when it loses big pieces that people are going to show up. I think our bullpen is going to do that."
Much of that onus is on Rosenthal and Boggs, the two directly affected by Motte's absence. Boggs left Spring Training knowing he'd be the closer. Rosenthal, after making only 19 appearances as a rookie last season, was given the reins on Boggs' former eighth-inning duties.
But Rosenthal couldn't preserve an eighth-inning, one-run lead in Arizona last week, and he lost another chance for a hold on Monday. After a one-out single and errant 98-mph that plunked Todd Frazier, Rosenthal lost an eight-pitch battle to Xavier Paul, who tied the game at 4 with an RBI single.
"You have an opportunity to step up for a lot of these guys to step up and fill some shoes," Rosenthal said. "That's what we're all looking to do. I need to be a little bit sharper than that."
Boggs said the same, describing this appearance as the "worst outing of my career." Boggs, too, blew a save against the D-backs last week. He entered Monday not in a save spot, but with the opportunity to push a tie game deeper.
Instead, the Reds sent 15 batters to the plate in the frame, seven of which scored off Boggs. The first came off an RBI single from Brandon Phillips, who had been vehemently booed by fans during the pregame ceremonies.
"The atmosphere here was nice," said Phillips, who had earlier connected for a solo homer. "I loved everything that they did here. They had the legends out there. They did the tribute for Stan the Man. It was beautiful. When it came to the game, I had some key situations to get done and I did it."
In all, Boggs allowed two hits and walked four (two intentional) while retiring just one batter.
"I'm not going to hide from this. There are no excuses. I was bad today," Boggs said. "But I expect to be a part of a lot of good ones. My mindset won't change. I'll show up tomorrow ready to do whatever they ask me to do."
For now, it appears as if manager Mike Matheny will continue to ask Boggs to close games. Rosenthal seemed the natural backup closer choice, but with his struggles in the eighth, he's likely off the list of options for now.
If the Cardinals do want to push someone else into that late-inning mix, it could be Edward Mujica, who also has extensive setup experience, or Joe Kelly.
"Whenever you have a loss this fresh, nobody is too happy with anything right now," Matheny said. "Those guys know that they can pitch better than they did. I know that they realize that they have to do something different. We all do. We just have to figure out what that is and make the adjustments.
"We always keep the door open, but right now you have to look at the fact that those guys are there for a reason," he added. "They've earned that spot and not to make any knee-jerk reactions. But we always evaluate every situation when we get to it. We need to convince them to do exactly what they did before -- just get outs and don't let yourself fall into the trap of making it any different than what it has been in the past."
In the first 26 relief innings this season, the Cardinals' bullpen has allowed 19 runs (16 earned). Sixteen of those runs have scored when the 'pen was trying to hold a lead.
Monday's blown save cost starter Jaime Garcia the win in an outing where he matched his career high with 10 strikeouts. Garcia threw first-pitch strikes to 21 of the 29 batters he faced.
"You can see the confidence in him," third baseman David Freese said of Garcia. "He's taking it to the hitter. He arguably has the nastiest stuff in the league. I think every hitter that faces him can attest to that."
Long before the 'pen implosion, the Cardinals built up a lead with substantial assistance from Shin-Soo Choo, who had an adventure in center field. In the first inning, Yadier Molina lined a ball to deep center that bounced in and then out of Choo's glove for an error. Two runs scored.
Molina again exposed Choo when, in the sixth, another of his line drives hit off Choo's glove to give St. Louis a 4-2 lead. In between, Molina delivered a fourth-inning RBI single.
That was one of only four hits the Cardinals would have against Reds starter Mat Latos.

Come Party With Me: Oscars Viewing — Menu
Instead of serving a sit down dinner at your Oscars viewing party, offer a smörgåsbord of snacks like Wolfgang Puck does at the Governors Ball. Provide a hearty mix of homemade and store bought appetizers. Have a cheese plate with several different types of cheese, crackers, flatbreads, crostini, and grapes. A platter of salumi — salami, proscuitto, chorizo, etc. — with olives compliments the assortment of cheeses. Order a couple of sushi platters from your favorite sushi restaurant.

This is Sunshine Week, an observance created to promote the importance of open government and freedom of information. Sunshine laws tend to make the news only for controversial reasons, such as the media outlets pressing for access to records from the Sandy Hook massacre or political candidates who use public-records requests to harass opponents.
But the controversial cases are the exceptions. At their heart, Sunshine laws protect our right to know what our government is discussing, deciding and doing. And every time lawmakers chip away at open-records laws -- as they have done by adding dozens of exceptions to the Ohio Public Records Act -- it is the public's rights they are eroding.
As budgets have tightened in recent years, there's been a lot of talk about making government more like a business.
Increasing competition and promoting accountability can be worthy goals, but we must remember that in the end, government is not just a business.
The government -- from the presidency to the village council -- belongs to us, and we have every right to know what they do in our name.
-- The Cincinnati Enquirer

Cruz contrite after involvement in brawl
GLENDALE, Ariz. -- Adrian Gonzalez and Luis Cruz returned to the Dodgers on Monday from their World Baseball Classic adventure with Team Mexico. Cruz expressed contrition for his ordering of a beaning against Canada that triggered Saturday's brawl.
"I lost it," Cruz said repeatedly. "I just feel bad because I lost it, and that's not the way I play."
Otherwise, Cruz would not elaborate on the reasons he motioned to Mexican pitcher Arnold Leon to hit batter Rene Tosoni with a pitch, which he did on the third try, triggering the melee.
That came one batter after catcher Chris Robinson, with a six-run lead, bunted toward Cruz at third base for a single, a breach of baseball etiquette with a large lead, even though Classic rules contain a tiebreaker based on run differential.
No suspensions were handed out, although Cruz still could be fined for his actions.
"I'm just glad to be back in camp so I can work on everything," said Cruz, a career Minor Leaguer who broke through in the second half of 2012 to be the incumbent third baseman to start this season. "The main thing is to be ready for Opening Day and help myself be a better player."
Meanwhile, Team Mexico teammate Gonzalez confirmed that Canada coach Larry Walker teamed with Gonzalez during the bench-clearing scrum to prevent Gonzalez from getting involved.
"I was just making sure nobody got any cheap shots in," said Gonzalez. "He had me most of the time. If I was a coach in his situation, I'd probably do the same thing."

text: Symptoms and causes By Mayo Clinic Staff Print SymptomsSigns and symptoms of a tooth abscess include: Severe, persistent, throbbing toothache that can radiate to the jawbone, neck or ear Sensitivity to hot and cold temperatures Sensitivity to the pressure of chewing or biting Fever Swelling in your face or cheek Tender, swollen lymph nodes under your jaw or in your neck Sudden rush of foul-smelling and foul-tasting, salty fluid in your mouth and pain relief if the abscess ruptures When to see a doctor See your dentist promptly if you have any signs or symptoms of a tooth abscess. If you have a fever and swelling in your face and you can't reach your dentist, go to an emergency room. Also go to the emergency room if you have trouble breathing or swallowing. These symptoms may indicate that the infection has spread deeper into your jaw and surrounding tissue or even to other areas of your body. Causes Periapical tooth abscessPeriapical tooth abscessBacteria can enter the innermost part of the tooth through either a deep cavity or a chip or crack in your tooth. The resulting infection and inflammation can cause an abscess at the tip of the root. A periapical tooth abscess occurs when bacteria invade the dental pulp — the innermost part of the tooth that contains blood vessels, nerves and connective tissue. Bacteria enter through either a dental cavity or a chip or crack in the tooth and spread all the way down to the root. The bacterial infection can cause swelling and inflammation at the tip of the root. Risk factorsThese factors may increase your risk of a tooth abscess: Poor dental hygiene. Not taking proper care of your teeth and gums — such as not brushing your teeth twice a day and not flossing — can increase your risk of tooth decay, gum disease, tooth abscess, and other dental and mouth complications. A diet high in sugar. Frequently eating and drinking foods rich in sugar, such as sweets and sodas, can contribute to dental cavities and turn into a tooth abscess. ComplicationsA tooth abscess won't go away without treatment. If the abscess ruptures, the pain may decrease significantly — but you still need dental treatment. If the abscess doesn't drain, the infection may spread to your jaw and to other areas of your head and neck. You might even develop sepsis — a life-threatening infection that spreads throughout your body. If you have a weakened immune system and you leave a tooth abscess untreated, your risk of a spreading infection increases even more.

It's a bit premature -- 68 days, actually -- to label the debut of the BottleRock Festival in Napa one of the greatest music celebrations in the nation.
Hey, Coachella wasn't built in a day. Or Austin City Limits, Lollapalooza, or Outside Lands in San Francisco.
But Bob Vogt and Gabe Meyers believe they have the blueprint to attract global attention from the starter's gun, as the Napa duo behind Will Power Entertainment secured A-listers and Grammy chums galore for the May 8 to 12 extravaganza at the Napa Expo and Uptown Theatre.
The line-up includes The Black Keys, Kings of Leon, Zac Brown Band, Further featuring Phil Lesh and Bob Weir, Cake, Jackson Browne, Train, Jane's Addiction, The Black Crowes, Alabama Shakes, Primus, The Flaming Lips, The Wallflowers, Joan Jett and the Blackhearts, Brandi Carlile, and 40 other acts.
As the headline act after headliner act was signed and sealed, it was tough to not hyperventilate at staff meetings, promoters recalled.
"Gabe will start twitching and go through some spasms," joked Vogt, as the two longtime friends and business partners did this interview via conference call.
"We are having fun," Vogt said. "Though we have to act like we've been here before, and we have a level of confidence and we've surrounded ourselves with good people, we're excited as people could be."
BottleRock is, said Meyers, "The biggest event we've done, at least 10 or 12 times bigger than anything else. We're proud of our festival."
"Big" can be good, but creates challenges, the duo agreed. There's downtown parking and lodging, including rooms for 350 or so musicians and crew.
"It was a logistical concern of all the partners," said Meyers, believing a shuttle system to various points will alleviate most transportation headaches.
The producers estimate roughly 35,000 visitors will come through Napa every day during the five-day engagement, bringing more than $30 million into the area.
"That gets people's attention," Vogt said.
Sure, bills have to get paid. But it's much more for the admitted "music freaks."
"We go into this as both a business and with a passion for music," Vogt said. "The nice thing about this business is, it tends to have an emotional component. The whole notion of bringing bands like The Black Keys or Jane's Addiction are these are people we know, we love, and have some personal connection with. For the other bands, we're huge fans and the idea of bringing that kind of talent to the Napa Valley is beyond business."
Vogt and Meyers believe it won't take long before music is added to the two anchor attractions to Napa -- wine and food.
"I would say five, 10 years down the road," Vogt said. "Maybe even sooner."
Vogt and Meyers said the festival works because the two work well together.
"We have different skill sets," Vogt said. "We have a lot in common, too. The key is to get things done fast on the first effort. One essential ingredient is we're friends and trust each other."
"It's nice to agree because we're alike or we slug it out," Meyers said. "If there was a third (party involved), it would be horrible. We'd be trying to win her or his affection."
To break a tie sometimes, "gambling is involved," Vogt joked.
Though there's a small sampling of country acts -- think Zac Brown or Dwight Yoakam -- it's definitely a rock show, Vogt said, but don't expect the insanity of a Woodstock.
"We love and embrace and want to show off the Napa Valley," Vogt said. "We say this is for 'rockers with a palette.' People who appreciate food, wine and beer and are still rockin'."
Not knowing just how big the inaugural event would be tends to be "a little stressful," Vogt said. "Stress is making sure you have the ability to deliver. There are a lot of moving parts. It's not a public endeavor where everyone weighs in. It's two guys."
So far, so good.
"Lining up who we booked speaks for itself," Meyers said. "If you like rock 'n roll, you'll like this festival. If you pay attention to the Grammys, we picked well."
These aren't just two guys trying to swoop into a city, make a buck, and vanish. Meyers' family moved to Napa from Vallejo in 1946. Vogt arrived in 1981.
"The last thing we want to do is create problems," Meyers said. "We know this is big."
Vogt and Meyers have committed a "significant portion" of BottleRock profits to Autism ARC (Autism Adult Living care, family Resources, and a Cure), which is being launched in conjunction with the festival.
As Napans, "we feel a sense of pride, a sense of bringing something to our community as well as our families," Vogt said. "We're not carpetbaggers. This is our town."

a better sleep by falko8 04 2008
The free add-in SmartSleep for your System Preferences Pane brings some smarter sleep mode than MacOS X has by default.
Your MacBook (Pro) knows two sleep modes
1.) Sleep – system state is safed in RAM and buffered by the Battery. Fast sleep and fast awake
2.) Hibernate – system state is written to a hibernate file on the disk. Depending on your RAM size this will take several seconds during hibernate and awake
by default MacOS does a mixture of Sleep & Hibernate. Your Mac will save the system state to the disk when you close the lid. But RAM is also buffered by the battery. So awake will use the RAM if still available and ignore the hibernate file on the disk. Waking up is fast though.
It can drive you nuts closing your mac and waiting several seconds for it to go to hibernate if your battery is full.
This is where SmartSleep comes in handy. It introduces some preferences on this and offers the new "smart sleep" state. You define a watermark for the battery. Below this charge level your mac will go to hibernate. Above this watermark your Mac will just use sleep to speed up sleeping and wake up.
But make sure you install the new PrefPane add-in for ALL users (aka /Library/PreferencesPanes). Otherwise it wont work. It will also not work if you install it for both, your local user and in the global directory. The use settings will have precedence and override/hide the global preference pane settings.

Read All Aboat It! --Always wear a life jacket. --Avoid alcohol. --Be especially careful on personal watercrafts. --Children younger than age 13 must wear a Coast Guard approved life jacket while underway. --Enroll in a boater education class. --Don't overload your boat. --Operate at a safe speed. --Always have a passenger serve as a lookout in addition to the operator. --Watch out for low water areas or submerged objects. Always Wear A Personal Flotation Device (PFD) Or Life Jacket --Most boating fatality victims were found (recovered) NOT wearing a PFD. --Always carry extra PFD's in both adult and child sizes. --Children younger than 13 years old must wear a PFD while underway. Avoid Alcohol --The probability of being killed in a boating accident doubles when alcohol is involved. --Operating a boat under the influence is just as dangerous as driving a car after you have been drinking. --Boating while intoxicated (BWI) is strictly enforced and carries penalties similar to driving while intoxicated penalties, including possible Driver's License suspension. Enroll In A Boater Education Course-Regarless Of Age --It's a good idea for the whole family to enroll in a boater education course. --A majority (52 percent) of vessels involved in boating accidents are operated by persons 26-50 years of age. --For information on classroom, home video and online course options, visit the Texas Parks and Wildlife Department Web site at tpwd.texas.gov or call (800) 792-1112. Be Especially Careful On Personal Watercraft (PWC) --PWC operators and passengers must wear a life jacket. --Before you borrow or rent a PWC, take the time to learn how to operate the vessel and the rules of the waterway. --Obey the 50-foot rule! Maintain a 50-foot distance from other PWC's, vessels, persons, shore, or stationary platform or other object unless operating at headway (idle) speed. Operate At A Safe Speed --Although there are no numerical speed limits on the water, citations may be issued for excessive speed or reckless operation. Use common sense, and operate at a safe speed at all times --especially in crowded areas. --Excessive speed is a rate of speed greater than is reasonable or prudent without regard for conditions and hazards or greater than will permit a person to bring the boat to a stop within the assured clear distance ahead. -30-

About the Downtown Library
The Downtown Library was built as the replacement for the Albert A. Wells Memorial Library, located on North Street. Now the home of the Tippecanoe Arts Federation, the former library is known as the Wells Community Cultural Center. The Downtown Library was constructed through a bond issue in 1988 and opened in October of 1989. The Downtown Library opened with over 140,000 volumes. By 2011 the number of volumes had expanded to over 301,000 and in 2011 the Downtown Library had over 500,000 people pass through our doors.
The Downtown Library of the Tippecanoe County Public Library System is approximately forty-eight thousand square feet which includes our youth room, Swezey Room of Indiana History, 1 study room, the Alfred J. and Dorothy N. McAllister meeting rooms, both A and B, and the Friends of TCPL Conference Room. The design is the work of architects: Pecsok, Jelliffe, Randall & Nice/Schuette, Mohler & Associates. Since its construction the downtown library has had 3 interior remodels. krM Architecture from Anderson, Indiana designed expanded meeting rooms and office space in 2005. In 2008, the Youth Room was remodeled with advice from Robbins Library Interiors, Indianapolis. In 2012, an interior remodel designed by The Troyer Group, Mishawaka, created The Portal and renovated parts of the nearby Stein Building for office use. The Downtown Library also features the fully operational Heartland Odyssey Sculpture in our youth room.
Our one floor library hosts a collection of over 301,000 materials available for checkout including books, movies, nonfiction, materials in Spanish, CD-ROMs, audiobooks, music, magazines, and online resources. We also have approximately 50 Computers for adults and children including stations for: Internet, Express Internet, online resources, word processing, and youth educational games, youth bilingual games/software, TIPCAT online catalog, and Wi-Fi access for those with personal computers.

The Replacements reunite at Riot Fest
Rockers The Replacements hit the stage at the Riot Fest in Toronto, Canada on Sunday (25Aug14) for their first show in over 20 years. Frontman Paul Westerberg joked about the time between gigs during the band's headlining set, stating, "Sorry we took so long, we've been having a wardrobe debate – it was unresolved."
Westerberg and bassist Tommy Stinson were joined onstage by drummer Josh Freese and Dave Minehan on guitar for their first concert since an Independence Day gig in Chicago, Illinois in 1991.
The duo and their new bandmates will return to that city for the next Riot Fest show on 15 September (13) and they'll also perform in Denver, Colorado on 21 September (13).
Westerberg and Stinson reunited last year (12) to record the EP Songs for Slim in an effort to raise funds to help pay for former Replacements guitarist Slim Dunlap's medical fees after he suffered a massive stroke in 2012.

All the reports from group list keepers appear in List Keeper Reports . These reports contain all the information about tourneys you could need. The format of the tournament, the participants and the results are all there. The more information I receive from local List keepers, the more detail will be preserved as part of the history of the glorious Kingdom of Lochac, that deeds of renown and events of significance not be lost in the mists of time. It's even quicker and easier to update the records of your group's martial exploits, you can use the reporting form.
Any suggestions as to what you would like to see, what you use to run lists or what others may find useful will be considered for inclusion to these pages.

I already had this thread but I got no idea where it is. The list of threads I've created doesn't go back far enough or it's just disappeared.
Anyways, It's Christmas again, so that means I get to swim through Moby-Dick again. Its become one of my annual traditions now.
So post here with a thought, feeling or emotion and I'll try to find a quote to fit you.

Adam Scott won The Barclays on Sunday, capturing the first event in the FedEx Cup.
Finishing at 11-under 273, Scott was one stroke ahead of Tiger Woods, Canada's Graham DeLaet, England's Justin Rose and Gary Woodland, the third-round co-leader.
"I can't believe it, to be honest," Scott said after winning the FedEx Cup playoffs opener. "I just played a good round today and I came in and really didn't think it had a chance. But obviously, things went my way a lot out there."
Woods dropped to his knees after a back spasm on the 13th hole when he hooked his approach into the water, leading to a bogey. He birdied the 16th and 17th to get within one, and his 25-foot birdie off the 18th green stopped just short.
Phil Mickelson was among players at 9-under tied for sixth.
Scott won the 2013 Masters and was in contention for two of the year's other three majors.

MORE: Ko, LPGA | Riegger, Champions | Fleetwood, Europe | La'Cassie, Web.com
The Barclays was played in Jersey City, N.J., within site of the Manhattan skyline and the Statue of Liberty.
Scott played bogey-free and closed with a 5-under 66. He finished an hour before the final group, and watched from the locker room at Liberty National.
Kevin Chappell had a two-shot lead through 10 holes and went 7 over the rest of the way. Justin Rose three-putted the 18th.
Woodland had three consecutive birdie attempts inside 10 feet and missed them all.
Woods had all four rounds in the 60s for the first time in a year on the PGA Tour, though it wasn't enough. He battled stiffness in his lower back all week, which he attributed to a soft bed in his hotel room — the second consecutive year he has had back issues from a mattress at this event.
In a brief interview with CBS Sports, he said it was "hypothetical" when asked if he would compete in the Deutsche Bank Championship, the next playoff event that starts Friday on the TPC Boston. The tournament gives its charity money to Woods' foundation. Woods already missed the AT&T National this year, which also benefits his foundation.
"I just got off and I'm not feeling my best right now," he said.
Scott enjoyed a remarkable final round to win The Barclays PGA tournament at Liberty National.
He was six shots behind American leaders' Matt Kuchar and Woodland heading into the final round but a score of 5-under 66 allowed him to overhaul his faltering opponents and clinch victory.
Kuchar and Woodland opened Sunday atop the leaderboard, both at 12-under, before respective rounds of 78 and 73 allowed the 2013 Masters champion to steal victory.
It was a consistent round for Scott, completing a bogey-free circuit with three birdies on the front nine and two on the way in.
"I couldn't believe it to be honest," Scott said.
"I think I just played a good round today and I came in and really didn't think I had a chance but obviously things went my way a lot out there and I'm so happy."
The win lifted Scott to second in the FedEx Cup standings, just behind world No. 1 Woods.
DeLaet and Mickelson gave themselves a chance for victory with round-best efforts of 65, but they will both be ruing poor rounds earlier in the tournament.

One of the most controversial inclusions on last year's Hottest MCs in the Game list was Gucci Mane La Flare. Many people argued about whether or not he even deserved to be mentioned, let alone grab the #6 spot. But in a year that included a slew of new mixtapes, some very impressive cameos, the release of The State vs. Radric Davis, and a six-month stint in jail, Mr. La Flare's earnest work paid off.
Gucci Mane wants to be higher on the MTV Top 10 MC's list. Last year Gucci reigned in at a strong #6, but this year he hopes to be higher.

Together Changing Children's Lives
The Amy Biehl Foundation is a non-profit organisation that offers programmes to develop and empower youth (5 - 18 years of age) living in the challenged and vulnerable communities within the Western Cape. The programmes place a focus on the creative side of the child's brain, and supplement the shortcomings of the educational system in the townships of South Africa. There are huge inadequacies in the schools in which we work, creating a great need for our programmes.
Class of 2012 Learners exiting Grade 12 in 2012 have affectionately been called South Africa's "born frees" since most were born in the year of the first free and democratic elections. Enrolled in Grade 1 in 2001, 7 years since democracy, they've experienced 12 years of schooling under the new curriculum. The number of fulltime candidates writing the NSC has increased from 496 090 in 2011 to 511 152 in 2012 – an increase of 15 062 candidates. The number of part-time candidates who wrote in 2012 is 81 552 compared to 80 116 in 2011 (an increase of 1 436). (Statement during the announcement of the 2012 National Senior Certificate Grade 12 Examination Results by Mrs Angie Motshekga, Minister of Basic Education, SABC Auditorium: 02 January 2013)
Reaching over 2000 youngsters every day, the programmes are having a very positive effect on the youth as well as the communities in which they live. We provide educational and cultural activities that offer students healthy alternatives to all the negative influences within their society, unlock their creative talent and create future emotionally well rounded individuals, leaders and entrepreneurs for South Africa.
A basic meal is provided daily for the children, and with the greening & environment programme, youngsters are actually given an opportunity to grow vegetables for their teachers, class mates and communities. Programmes include;
* After School Care * Music, Including Violin, Guitar, Recorder, Marimba, Choral Singing and Brass* * HIV / AIDS Peer Education * Greening and Environment * Literacy * Creative Arts, Beading, * Drama & Dance - Kwaito, Modern, Traditional and Ballet * Sport including soccer, hockey, swimming, diving, cricket, netball * Computer Literacy*
We have moved to C6, Oude Molen Eco Village, Alexandra Road, Pinelands, 7405
Please support the Foundation by buying Amy's Bread and Amy's Wine at Pick 'n Pay stores in the Western Cape or making Amy Biehl Foundation a beneficiary to MySchool MyVillage MyPlanet card
