Soma's farewell
Soma Norodom with Crown shirt, and myself, in the studioSoma Norodom's successful stint as the voice and face of PUC Talk Show Radio 90.0FM is coming to an end. Her final interview will be broadcast on Tuesday 28 Feb at 7pm and the tables will be turned, with Soma as the guest, discussing her stint behind the mike and her plans for the future. Part of the Pannasastra University's youth leadership series, using English language as its medium of communication, she's interviewed a wide variety of interesting people including business leaders, news-makers, artists and god forbid, even me. In fact my live interview, conducted back in September, will be rebroadcast on Friday 17 Feb at 7pm. Another couple of interviews to look out for, author and activist Theary Seng on 21 Feb, the Nancy the Jar Lady Beavan replay on 27 Feb and of course, the final show, the following day. The success of the show has been based on Soma's preparation beforehand and her limitless enthusiasm during the broadcasts. She will be sorely missed on-air.

Around The Rink
-Leafs fans began to rejoice after Tuesday's morning skate, which saw goalie Jonathan Bernier on the ice for the first time in quite a while, a welcomed sight considering the abysmal play of former savior James Reimer. Reimer looked woeful at times the last week but was also the victim of a slow-footed and positionally unsound defense fond of giving up odd-man rushes and breakaways. Strangely, Bernier fell to some of the same play that victimized Reimer in a loss to St. Louis Tuesday. True it was St. Louis and not New Jersey, but the Leafs haven't exactly protected their goalies, something that may end up costing them what once seemed to be a secure playoff spot.
-Pittsburgh will be without their other all-world center, as Evgeni Malkin is slated to miss most of, if not, all of the regular season's final weeks with a knee injury. Geno has been streaky this season, but the point binges were enough to satisfy owners, especially the six he notched over a two-game span recently. Malkin should return for the playoffs, but the Penguins, virtually assured the Metropolitan Division's top seed, will be wise to rest him. Malkin's absence will hurt owners in the midst of playoffs, or those vital final weeks of rotisserie, but players like Jussi Jokinen and James Neal could be affected more without their all-world center (although both notched a power-play point in Tuesday's loss to Phoenix). Look for Brandon Sutter to see a bit more ice time in Malkin's stead, making Sutter a viable option for owners seeking a potential gem from the waiver wire.
-Wednesday's Metropolitan Division clash between the Flyers and the Rangers is essentially a contest to jockey for playoff position. With Washington and Columbus, as well as the Devils, lagging behind in the division, Wednesday's game can help determine home ice for what should be a first-round, divisional playoff matchup. Philadelphia is playing excellent hockey of late, owning wins over Chicago, St. Louis and two over Pittsburgh. The Rangers are still a solid team with one of the league's best netminders, so expecting a physical, playoff-type game Wednesday should be in order.

Chris Kreider, LW – Injured hand, likely out for rest of regular season
Anaheim Ducks
Sheldon Souray, D – Hasn't played and won't play, wrist surgery
Cam Fowler, D – Sprained MCL, out for now

Patrick Maroon, LW – Day-to-day with a lower body injury.
Calgary Flames
Michael Ferland, LW – Out for season with knee surgery
Markus Granlund, C – Could play again this season following shoulder injury.
Dennis Wideman, D – Done for season, will be ready for training camp
David Jones, RW – Out another two weeks likely
Mikko Koivu, C, Minnesota- He isn't the most prolific player on the Wild roster, but the team simply plays better when Koivu is producing. The crafty playmaker has a goal and five assists heading into Wednesday's tilt with Vancouver. Koivu is in a tremendous situation alongside Zach Parise and the rest of the Wild's power-play snipers, like Jason Pominville, Matt Moulson and the player who used to be Dany Heatley. Koivu has a goal and two assists in the last two games and figures to factor much into the team's scoring as they look to secure a playoff spot.
Ryan McDonagh, D, New York Rangers- McDonagh's career season continued on Monday with the overtime winning goal and two assists in the Rangers' vital victory over Phoenix. He remains the team's top option in scoring from the back end and one of their most important shutdown defenders. He's going to keep seeing scoring chances and with six points in the last four games, McDonagh is cashing in for owners who snagged him late. Enjoy it the final three weeks of the season, as he won't come this cheap next year.
Curtis Glencross, LW, Calgary- Seemingly everyone on the Flames had at least two points in Saturday's 8-1 beatdown of the Oilers, but Glencross has at least a point in five of the last six games, including a hat trick Saturday. The Flames followed up that win with a shootout win over San Jose Monday, showing that once the pressure is off, it's easier to win games. Glencross should see plenty of scoring chances for the Flames, who have rediscovered the offensive end of the rink. He's probably available in most leagues and those in daily leagues may want to look at the veteran as there are just three games on Wednesday's slate.
Martin St. Louis, RW, New York Rangers- Wantaway St. Louis is still waiting to pot his first goal for the Rangers since the deadline-day acquisition from Tampa Bay. The shifty veteran has a mere three assists in 11 games since joining the Rangers, certainly numbers the team was hoping would be better. It's just a matter of time before a player of St. Louis's caliber will start scoring, but him bagging a few important goals in the playoffs will make all forget this woefully slow start with the Rangers.
Mike Richards, C, Los Angeles- Richards has been rather quiet the last two weeks for the Kings with just one goal in the last eight games. That goal constitutes his only point as well. He's still seeing scoring chances with the Kings, but simply has not been capitalizing, as he has 13 shots on goal in the last four games.
Teemu Selanne, RW, Anaheim Ducks- Despite having three points in the last two games, with a goal in each, Selanne had not scored in and NHL game since January 15. With just four assists over that span, Selanne had not been contributing much for the Ducks of late. He's too good of a player to stay this quiet for this long, but age could be catching up with Teddy Flash. He's still a player who will see scoring chances, and the Ducks will hope the last two games are more indicative of his ability down the stretch that the weeks leading up and immediately following the Olympics.
Recommended Pickups
Shawn Matthias, C, Vancouver Canucks-With only three games on the schedule Wednesday and the Canucks' top center, Henrik Sedin, out with a leg injury, Matthias will see more top-six minutes than he usually does. A piece of the Roberto Luongo trade, Matthias won't be expected to contribute regularly, but he grabbed a goal and two assists in Sunday's win over Buffalo. Those in deep daily leagues may want to look Matthias's way for Wednesday, just remember that the Minnesota team Vancouver faces is slightly better than Buffalo.
Brandon Sutter, C, Pittsburgh- Owners looking to fill an Evgeni Malkin-sized void, may want to look at Sutter, who could see an uptick in top-six ice time while Malkin is out for what should be the rest of the regular season. Sutter won't produce nearly as much, but Malkin's absence moves him up another line on the depth chart.

WASHINGTON -- Bob's Pizzeria in upstate New York was still wobbling in its second year when owner Robert Francis Banas abruptly shut it down and marched off to the war on terrorism.
A National Guardsman for six years, Banas was called to duty Sept. 11, the day the terrorists struck. After a few days in New York City, he spent a month guarding the Lewiston-Queenston Bridge on the U.S.-Canada border.
"Everyone was expecting another attack," the soft-spoken Buffalo Bills fan said from his North Tonawanda pizza shop. "We were right near the power plant that provides the power supply for a lot of the state."
Nearly seven months after the terror attacks -- six months since the Afghan war started Oct. 7 -- more than 83,000 reservists and guardsmen are on active duty for the federal government. That's the most since the Gulf War a decade ago.
An additional 7,000 guardsmen have been called up by governors to provide airport security.
As they went off to fight, protect bases, fly refueling missions or perform myriad other suddenly crucial tasks, many left jobs that pay far more than they now earn on duty. Those duties are creating some precarious family financial situations and endangering the existence of some small businesses.
Banas padlocked his fledgling enterprise on Sept. 11. He ended up serving for about a month after the attacks.
"We weren't sure how long we were going to be gone, and no one else was really capable of keeping the place open. I didn't reopen until November 9th," Banas said, apologizing for frequent interruptions as he took some of the 40 to 50 pizza orders he gets on an average night.
A $10,000 Small Business Administration loan, designed especially for his situation, enabled him to reopen the shop and rehire the part-timers he laid off while he was gone.
Despite the title "reserves," such forces are far from the last resort, mobilized only when the entire active duty military is at war.
In the post-Cold War era, the military has shrunk to 1.4 million troops from a high of 2 million during the mid-1980s. As a result, the Pentagon must turn to its 1.3 million reservists to shoulder part of any military campaign.
By law, companies must let reservists and guardsmen go on duty, and rehire them to equivalent jobs on their return -- including raises and other benefits they would have earned had they stayed at work all along.
For most reservists and guardsmen, the part-time military duty is a source of extra cash in peacetime. But when mobilized, they earn only what active duty service members get, and that often is much less.
No law requires compensation for money they lose while serving.
"If you're serving in Afghanistan or you've been called to duty at an airport, you still have to pay your mortgage," said Army Maj. Hunt Kerrigan. "If your salary has been cut in half, how do you deal with that?"
Some employers are voluntarily paying on-duty employees at least part of the difference between their military pay and on-the-job earnings.
The $4,200 a month Senior Master Sgt. Fritz Vogel is earning at McGuire Air Force Base in New Jersey is about half his normal income, he says.
To his 13-year-old daughter and 12-year-old son, that means the twice-a-week karate classes are history, movie trips are a rarity, and bowling is out.
"You have to re-examine where every penny goes," said Vogel, 48, who closed his construction business -- Fritz's Welding Co., in Birdsboro, Pa., near Reading -- when he was called up Oct. 22 for a year.
The youngsters have "gotten the brunt of it," he said. While they understand why their father is away -- a reality that hit home when he told them about updating his will -- they still are youngsters who make demands on their parents.
"We get hammered every weekend," he said. "They want to do this, want to do that.' We've got to say, 'No, no, no.'"
Also sacrificing are their two older sons, 26 and 25. Vogel laid them off because he is the one who writes the bids, gets the jobs and oversees the work, primarily the steel end of construction.
Despite the hardships, Vogel was eager to serve after Sept. 11. The man who has been on active or reserve military status for 27 years volunteered the next day.
"We went up to New York, putting up a triage unit at 120 Broadway, right at ground zero," Vogel said. "We took it apart because there was nobody coming in" except firefighters with eye and respiratory problems from the blinding dust.
After a month at home, Vogel was called for the year, and is thrilled to be doing construction projects on the base. "I have my expertise that I'm putting to use on the military side," while learning some new tricks from the military.
Delta Airlines pilot Walter Mood was not elated about being called up Oct. 15.
"It wasn't exactly on my list of things to do that day," said Mood, an Air Force major now flying huge C-5 transport planes out of Lackland Air Force Base in San Antonio, carrying massive amounts of materiel around the world. "But part of the contract is that if the country needs me, I will go."
His $7,500 monthly military pay falls $5,000 short of his former earnings, in part because as a civilian he had two jobs -- flying 737s for Delta and spending about 80 days a year on reserve duty.
But Mood, 37, and his wife Laura, who have no children, "always planned to live fairly simply."
He's been on active or reserve Air Force status since they married 15 years ago. "We can still live on a major's salary."
Yet even they have cut back: "We're definitely not saving as much, and we're eating out less."
Mood is hoping his yearlong sting is not extended because other C-5 units have not been mobilized. "I'll be pretty unhappy if they don't activate the other units and let us off."
On the other hand, Banas, single and in his 20s, said he will serve again, no matter the cost.
"I would go in a second," he said.
Vogel, too.
"There's no doubt," he said. "I wouldn't even think twice about it. No question."

Sun 7 Apr 2013 in 63,29:
In Sakasti, Nurmes. The hashpoint lies in a field, behind a forest and some houses.
- Pastori
- The Wife
Pastori had been observing the hashpoints in this graticule since the start of his geohashing career, since he visits Nurmes, the biggest settlement in the area, regularly for various errands. Finally the hashpoint landed right there, only 3 km from the center of Nurmes.
Having been retired 3 months and 7 days Pastori woke up enthusiastically, because today he would have a chance to go to sacristy again. (The name of the place, where the hashpoint lay, was "Sakasti", which means "sacristy"). It was a Sunday morning and the night before had seen the thermometer dropping to almost -20°C. After the normal morning routines he hooked up the electric pre-heater of the car and gathered the equipment. It was the day of second geohashing trip. Equipped with snow shoes, poles, long-shafted boots and the wife with a camera, Pastori drove out with eagerness at the exactly same time as he did when working, 9:00.
But Pastori was still not quite ready to retire for the day... (pun intended)

*I think most people associate cats with climbing on counters. It seems to be in their genes and they have to do it. Yahoo! decided to poll cat owners and veterinary professionals, that are also cat owners, to find out if they allow their cat on the counters.
When asked if their cats were allowed access to the counter, 21 percent of veterinary professionals who responded answered "yes," 13 percent answered "rarely" and 54.5 percent answered "no." ("Other" was also an option, claiming 11.4 percent of veterinary professional votes.)
Our readers were more likely than veterinary professionals to allow their cats on the counter: 28 percent answered affirmatively, 11 percent said rarely and 48.1 percent said no, with the remaining readers opting for "other." So, while veterinary professionals are less likely to allow their cats on the kitchen counter as a habit, they're actually more likely to allow their cats up there on occasion.
If you're a cat owner, do you allow your cat on the counters? To read more about this survey, click here.

The University of Minnesota has been awarded more than $4 million to study risk factors for Alzheimer's disease.
The U of M is among a group of five academic medical centers that will share a $26 million dollar grant from the National Institutes of Health.
The grant renews a large multi-state study, that initially tracked heart disease and stroke among roughly 16,000 patients for 20 years. About 4,000 of those patients are Minnesota residents.
The U of M said the new version of the study will include detailed brain testing and imaging. Researchers hope that information, when combined with the earlier study data, will shed more light on the causes of dementia. They are especially interested in the role that hypertension, diabetes and other vascular conditions play in cognitive decline.
Previous findings have suggested that vascular problems may predict declines in memory and processing speed later in life.

Speaker(s): Professor Robert Trivers
Chair: Professor Helena Cronin
Recorded on 5 October 2011 at Sheikh Zayed Theatre, New Academic Building
After decades of research, one of the most influential theoretical evolutionary biologists of our time has returned to found the principles of a provocative new science on why we lie to ourselves. Robert Trivers argues that we deceive ourselves the better to deceive others. Self-deception is something we all practice and it is diverse, widespread and powerful. It can also apply to a wide range of phenomena from airplane crashes, to false historical narratives, war, and religions. Robert Trivers has been acclaimed as one of 100 greatest thinkers and scientists of the twentieth century by Time magazine and has been on the faculty at Harvard, the University of California, Santa Cruz, and Rutgers University. His new book is Deceit and Self-Deception: Fooling Yourself the Better to Fool Others.

Fate Worse Than Death, The Summoned
Palladium Upstairs
261 Main street
Worcester, MA, 01608
There's an obscure Chinese proverb that roughly translates as "There is one thing greater than money and power: Enthusiasm." While some of the more cynical bastards in the world would dismiss that statement as some kind of hollow fortune-cookie philosophy, that lesson is something the Cleveland-based metal outfit Chimaira have taken to heart. With four records and a decade of service in the trenches behind them, the band—singer Mark Hunter, guitarists Rob Arnold and Matt DeVries, bassist Jim LaMarca, drummer Andols Herrick and keyboardist Chris Spicuzza—have created The Infection, their second release for Ferret Music and their most ambitious recording yet.
Sounds like typical record-company bio nonsense, right? Doesn't every band tell you that their latest release surpasses everything they've done up to this point? How many times have you heard the words "maturing" or "progressing" as a rationale to deliver a crap album? For their fifth album, Chimaira didn't have any brushes with death, rehab memories or dalliances in musical genres that have nothing to do with "the rock" as we know it. Sounds crazy, but the truth is that the band have come around full circle, returning to the headspace that brought them together in the first place.
"Every album we've ever made has a back-story that made the creation of that album a pain in the ass," says Mark Hunter about his band's evolution. "When we made our first album [2001's Pass Out Of Existence], we were thrown into the studio for two months with a huge budget, a big producer and no songs. We just rushed through it. When we got the record back, we thought, 'this is not what we signed up for.' When it came to do the next record [2003's The Impossibility Of Reason], we felt like we had something to prove, so we were purposely writing songs that just put up a huge middle finger to everybody that steered us in the wrong direction. Andols had quit, and for the third album [2005's Chimaira], I hardly showed up to work on it. I'm usually working 12 hours a day in the studio; I went in, and did all my songs in four days and left. We got off of Roadrunner, got our old drummer back and signed to Ferret. Now people are questioning our stability and we're thinking we have to make the best record we've ever done because it could be the last one. The touring cycle for [our fourth album] Resurrection went well and we made tons of new fans.
Known for their intensity in both their music and live shows Boston based experimental death metal band The Summoned is being considered as fore-runners in the New England metal scene. They've been referred to such bands as Between The Buried and Me, The Faceless and Black Dahlia Murder but that doesn't stop them from experimenting with their sound but maintaining the intensity they're most known for. With Steve Thompson on Vocals, Jake Kelleher and Shaun Murphy on Guitars, Joe Zahareais on Bass, and Sam Hang on Drums The Summoned believes they've collectively brought out all their separate influences to create their own vision of experimental death metal.
In a span of two years The Summoned has completed two east coast tours, played shows in fifteen states and has had the honor of opening for national acts such as The Faceless, Dying Fetus, Beneath The Massacre, Through The Eyes of the Dead, Carnifex, Suffokate, Blindwitness, The Demonstration & Killwhitneydead.
The release of their 2009 demo recorded in May over a period of three days with Berklee School of Music student Fred Sladkey, The Summoned believes this is their best work to date. With two east cost tours, an EP release, a demo release, endorsements, opening for national acts as well as radio air play under their belt The Summoned has proven that their hard work with song writing and live shows strikes a nerve. Praised by their peers and highly acclaimed responses from fans The Summoned has no intentions of slowing down but picking up the pace to maintain their status of fore-runners in the New England metal scene.

ALBANY — The City Council voted to end an "in lieu" health benefit for itself at its Feb. 3 meeting. The change will take effect at the end of the year, when the next council is seated.
The benefit allowed council members who already had health insurance to take a payment equal to the amount of the benefit. According to Councilman Michael Barnes, a two-term member of the council could accumulate $80,000 to $100,000.
The council did not consider whether to force its members to pay for the difference in costs if they choose a more expensive health plan option, as city employees do. Albany offers city employees a basic plan with Kaiser and a more expensive plan with Blue Cross. Workers who choose the more expensive plan have to pay the difference. Council members who choose the more expensive plan do not have to pay the difference.
At a meeting last month, several members of the public criticized the council for having a better benefits arrangement than city employees.

My Nonprofit Reviews
Review for Heritage Retreats Inc dba University Heritage Society, Clifton, NJ, USA
Being involved with Heritage Retreats for many years now has enhanced my love for the Jewish people. Watching all types of Jews come together in a non-judgemental, learning and growning environment makes you realize what is really important in life. The program allowed me to meet individuals and establish relationships that i would never have a chance to do otherwise.

LSI buys AMCC's RAID adapter business
Post a comment
SAN JOSE, Calif. -- LSI Corp. has signed a definitive agreement to acquire the assets and certain associated intellectual property of the RAID adapter business of Applied Micro Circuits Corp. (AMCC) for approximately $20 million in cash.
The so-called 3ware products from AMCC (San Diego) include SAS and SATA RAID adapters. 3ware adapters are sold to end users through a worldwide network of channel partners including leading storage distributors and system builders.
3ware was bought by AMCC for $150 million in 2004, according to Daniel Amir, an analyst at Lazard Capital Markets. ''3ware generated revenue of $48 million in 2008 and we expect it to generate about $30 million in 2009 at about 50 percent margin,'' he said in a report.
The move expands LSI's storage offering. ''Strategically, the acquisition makes sense, as it enables LSI to sell into third-party channels and complements its direct sales business,'' he added.
This transaction allows AMCC to focus on its core strengths in the development of chips for packet-based networks. In January, communications semiconductor supplier AMCC said that President and CEO Kambiz Hooshmand will step down on June 1 after a loss. He will be replaced by Paramesh Gopi, currently the company's chief operating officer.
The next month, AMCC cut more than 100 jobs and said it would reduce employee compensation.

From today's Post: When a mom and her son's nanny disagree on how to raise kids, the child's father gets caught in the middle.
"They asked me for my opinion last time (a disagreement on whether my wife overruling the nanny's decision is healthy for our son, since he now goes straight to the "appeal" process). I agreed with the nanny, and my wife was furious," he writes in a letter to advice columnist Carolyn Hax.
Hax explains why this dad should re-evaluate child-rearing policies with his spouse.

DETROIT, Dec. 27 (UPI) -- Detroit Red Wings center Steve Yzerman will miss one to two weeks with a left ankle injury, the team announced Thursday.
Yzerman suffered the injury when he blocked a shot in the second period of the Red Wings' 3-3 tie against Minnesota on Wednesday. Prior to getting hurt, Yzerman scored a pair of power-play goals against the Wild.
An MRI on Thursday revealed the Red Wings' captain suffered no broken bones and that he would be sidelined as a precautionary measure.
Last season, Yzerman missed the final three games of Detroit's Western Conference quarterfinals series against the Los Angeles Kings with a left ankle injury. The Red Wings lost that series in six games.
Yzerman, 36, is second on the team in scoring this season, collecting 11 goals and 25 assists in 36 games.

The word totem is derived from the Native American Chippewa or Ojibwe people who called totems "odoodem," which literally means "his kinship group". Totem poles are usually sculptures carved by various tribes or clans of indigenous peoples of the Pacific Northwest Coast of North America from very large Western Red Cedar trees.
There are many different reasons why totem poles are carved. Totem poles may tell tales of family legends, serve to record clan lineages or highlight a notable social or natural event. Some poles serve basically as large tombstones of a sort representing mortuary structures complete with grave boxes decorated with carved supporting poles. Generally poles tell stories in illustrated form to record historic persons, events and to represent spiritual powers. Creatures big and small on totem poles can be symbolic of many different things. Ravens are tricksters and frogs are troublemakers. There are only three kingdoms or spiritual realms in totem pole folklore:
These pole figure stencil images are based upon traditional, existing, historical and some whimsical images of North American Indigenous native totem pole characters, symbols, and figures commonly appearing in Native American Totem Pole carvings. Make your own Halloween totem pole and make up stories and legends as you go. Color Book Pumpkins has plenty of animals and creatures you can use to create a unique Trick or Treat Totem to help scare away the ghosts, witches, werewolves, bats, black cats, devilish goblins and other night of the living dead walking ghouls on All Hallow's Eve. With the proper carving tools, these easy Halloween symbol emblems images are a snap for children and beginners to master in almost no time at all. Celebrate the night of the walking dead festivities with unique stencils of high flying Thunderbird eagles, sharks or dogfish, a two-headed whales or one-horned goats.

ATLANTA | Georgia men's tennis rising senior Nathan Pasha suffered a 6-2, 7-5 loss to world No. 84-ranked Lukas Lacko of Slovakia in Tuesday night's first round singles match in the main draw of the BB&T Atlanta Open at Atlantic Station.
The BB&T Open is the first event in the men's Emirates Airline US Open series. Pasha played in the main draw for the first time tonight after appearances in the qualifying the previous two summers.
After dropping the first set, Pasha took a 5-3 lead in the second with the chance to serve for it, but Lacko rallied to take the next four games, the set, and the match. Pasha took UGA teammate Austin Smith's place in the draw after a scheduling conflict.
"It's been great experience," Pasha said in a news release. "I have gotten so much support from everybody. I hit as many balls as I could in the last three or four days [to prepare for the tournament on short notice]. No matter how hurt or unprepared you are, this kind of support can carry you through a match or at least helps get you to the point where you have a chance. I was grateful for it tonight."
"I think it was a terrific experience for Nathan," Georgia coach Manuel Diaz said in a news release. "He's probably a little angry right now, but it's only because he got so close to winning that second set. It was a tall task for him because he hasn't been in full practice. He's been getting a little rest before the year started and didn't know about this opportunity until three days ago. He's a very hard worker and got out there and tried to do the best he could. When you're playing a very experienced player who is one of the top players in the world – he knew how to capitalize. For Nathan it was a great experience."
Pasha joined Georgia legend and Heisman Trophy winner Herschel Walker as part of the event's College Night on Tuesday, with Walker serving as the guest of honor and flipping the coin prior to Pasha's match.
Pasha earned the first career All-America honors of his career in 2014 after a trip to the NCAA singles round of 16 and helping the Bulldogs to the Southeastern Conference regular season title.
Former Bulldog John Isner is also set to compete at the BB&T Open as the top seed, coming off a title at the event in 2013 with two additional finals appearances there in his career.

Texas as Independent Nation: My Speech at a Toastmasters International Meeting
Filed under: Uncategorized
Unfortunately, I ran overtime, beyond the 7 minute, 30 second limit, and I still more to say. I chose the Ukraine as the model nation, because it is about the same size area as Texas, has a seacoast (Black Sea, we have the Gulf Coast), has other countries bordering it just as Texas has another nation Mexico, and states like New Mexico, Oklahoma, Arkansas, and Louisiana. The Ukraine had and may still have military bases of another nation.
Texas would have to figure out its relations with the U.S. about Fort Bliss, Naval Station Ingleside, all the U.S.A.F. bases, and U.S. Coast Guard bases. I tabulated some of the current federal government functions, post office, copyright, patent and trademark, trade negotiations with other nations, customs, immigration, naturalization, regulation of radio and television stations, and many other things. And what do we do with all the native Texas citizens convicted of felonies or misdemeanors in the remaining 49 states and all the territories and commonwealths of the United States that are deported back to Texas? I think that there are about 2 million prisoners in U.S. correctional facilities. Texas is about 25/312 of the current U.S. population, so we would get back at least 160,000 deportees from those currently in correctional facilities. Then they would try to start deporting the rest of the Texans ever convicted of a felony but residing in the U.S.
Becoming independent in 1836 was a far less complicated project than becoming an independent nation in the 21st century.
I think a senior year undergraduate student could write a very interesting honors thesis about what happens after newly independent nations are established, and lessons to be learned for a Texas independence movement.

Veggie Booty, the Cheez Doodles of the 21st century, gave new life to puffed rice and corn. The restaurant and catering equivalent is a more expansive version, closer to a slender rice cracker, curled and warped and light as air, but spiced for adult palates. Around New York, City Bakery's tempeh crackers with "Japanese hummus" (edamame spread) and rice crackers with cucumber raita have become familiar party hors d'oeuvres. And at restaurants like Kittichai, rice crackers are seasoned with a mixture of nori (dried seaweed), sesame, chilies and toasted coriander and served with a dipping sauce made with ground chicken, shrimp and coconut milk.
Just as a soufflé brings a little magic to the kitchen, so do homemade rice crackers. They begin as rigid sheets of dried rice and compact discs of dried rice grains, but when slipped into a pot of oil they puff up and grow and are cooked in less than a minute. This is child's play -- and with Kittichai's dipping sauce, an adult snack.
Rice crackers are available at Asia Market, 71 1/2 Mulberry Street, in Manhattan, or at www.indomerchant.com and www.asianmerchant.com. Rotary is a popular Indonesian brand of raw rice crackers (called krupuk gendar). Sometimes they are spiced like papadum. Most common are plain, smooth 3-inch rectangular sheets, like dried pasta squares, but you can also use discs that look like rice grains glued into a rice cake (like the one pictured at left). To cook, heat 1 inch of canola oil to 360 degrees in a large, deep pan. Add one cracker at a time, and using long tongs, hold the rice cracker under the surface until it begins puffing. It should inflate in 15 to 30 seconds; turn if necessary. Cool on paper towels.
Kittichai's Rice Crackers With Chicken-And-Shrimp Dipping Sauce 4 teaspoons sesame seeds, soaked in water for 15 minutes 2 teaspoons toasted and ground dried Thai chilies 4 teaspoons nori, thinly shredded 1 teaspoon toasted and ground coriander 24 rice crackers, fried Pam cooking spray Salt 3 tablespoons grapeseed oil 1 tablespoon minced garlic 1/2 cup chopped shallot 1 cup ground chicken 1/2 cup ground shrimp 2 tablespoons puréed cilantro root or cilantro stems 2 tablespoons palm sugar Freshly ground white pepper 1 cup coconut milk Scant 1 cup heavy cream 1 teaspoon fish sauce, plus more to taste.
1. Drain the sesame seeds, put them in a small pan and place over medium heat. Cook, shaking the pan, until the seeds are dry and lightly toasted. Pour them into a bowl and stir in the chilies, nori and coriander. Lightly spray one side of the rice crackers with Pam, then sprinkle with salt and the spice mixture.
2. Heat the oil in a large sauté pan over medium heat. Add the garlic and shallot and cook until softened. Stir in the chicken and cook until no longer raw-looking. Stir in the shrimp and cook until white. Add the cilantro root and palm sugar (available at indomerchant.com). Season with pepper. Pour in the coconut milk and heavy cream and stir until the palm sugar is dissolved. Add about 1 teaspoon fish sauce. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat to an active simmer and reduce by half -- it should be brothy, not thick. Season to taste with fish sauce. Serve at room temperature with the rice crackers. Serves 6 as an appetizer.Continue reading the main story
City Bakery's Edamame Spread 1 pound shelled soybeans (sold frozen in a bag) 1/4 cup rice vinegar 1/4 cup seasoned rice vinegar 1 1/2 cups canola oil Salt and pepper 24 rice crackers, fried.
1. Fill a large pot with water and bring to a boil. Add the soybeans and cook until tender, about 5 minutes. Drain.
2. In a food processor, pulse together the soybeans and vinegars. With the machine running, add the oil in a slow stream. Season with salt and pepper. Serve with rice crackers -- either the discs or warped sheets. Ilene Rosen, the savory chef at City Bakery, calls this her version of rice and beans. Serves 4.Continue reading the main story

ILO: Employment rights essential to economic recoveryListen /
International labour standards must be preserved and promoted if the world is to recover from the economic and employment crisis, says the International Labour Organization (ILO) Director-General Guy Ryder.
He says the rush to create jobs was not an excuse to abandon workers rights and international labour standards.
Mr Ryder who has taken over the leadership of ILO from Juan Somavia says tackling youth unemployment was critical to easing the global economic crisis.
ILO estimates that there are over 75 million young people are out of work worldwide.
"All of the evidence shows that if a young person is out of work for one or two years at the beginning of their career, that affects them throughout their working life. There is no way back for most of them. So we have to act urgently, we have to act now, we have to target young people. One way to do it is by examining the experience of youth guarantee schemes, that is to say if a young person is out of work and out of education they need to be given a guarantee chance to get work experience or further training. Sounds expensive, it's affordable. It's an investment not a cost, and this is one of the priorities that ILO is going to have to turn its attention to in the months ahead and quickly because it is an emergency."

Did Rihanna + Chris Brown Split Already?
That was quick. Just as Rihanna and Chris Brown were getting increasingly public with their relationship, the pair, affectionately dubbed "Chrianna" by Rihanna's Navy and Team Breezy, may well have called it quits.
E! Online reports that prolific tweeter Rihanna hinted at a split over the microblogging site on Tuesday (Dec. 10). After Brown was photographed wearing a hat from his ex Karrueche Tran's clothing line in Paris — where he was rumored to be hooking up with Tran — Rihanna tweeted, "Goodbye muthaf—er," then promptly erased it (however, it's still on her Instagram). She followed with another subsequently deleted post, writing, "You give, you get, then you give it the f— back. Examine what you tolerate."
Still, other sources say Rihanna isn't too miffed about the whole thing. (And she shouldn't be, considering she and Breezy were reportedly hooking up while he and Tran were still together.)
An ineloquent insider told Hollywood Life, "Rihanna is not stupid and she know [sic] his little side piece is there but she ain't tripping on the small s— and trust, it's really small. Ri don't even pay attention to that because there's no point," the source added. "She would never give time or spend a second thinking about another b—- that's not even in her same league," the source continued. "Come on now, there's really just no comparison and she could care less about another b—- or where they are in world because she and Chris know what time it is!"
Ah, young love. Here's hoping they work it out, because laser tattoo removal stings.

It's been a long while since I've had Genmaicha of any sort, hadn't realized before I took the 1st sip of this how much I missed it. (I've only had Fusion's version and a 1 serving packet from a tea giveaway, didn't have a label on it, but it was kind of nasty…tasted like burnt rice.) But this definitely reminds me that I need to get more.
Taste-The primary taste is Genmaicha for sure. With a aftertaste of raspberry. Now, while I don't mind having a cup of this, I am not sure these flavors really meld together. I think Genmaicha would be better along side a Chai because the toasted rice has a really warm taste, whereas berries tend to be better suited to cold teas or hot teas with a white tea base.
From looking at Frank's other Genmaicha blends, I can see Marshmallow being a good partner, as well as chocolate, caramel. Maybe even coconut.
Though I am not much of a dessert tea fan (Especially with chocolate ones. Just tastes like waterdowned hot chocolate.) I think paired with Genmaicha it might be different enough to me that I would enjoy it.

Don't miss a story. Like us on Facebook. Like Dallas News' Facebook Page
The North Texas Food Bank has made an urgent call for donations of food, money and time to help stock empty pantry shelves after gifts to the hunger relief organization have slowed this season and demand increased during summer months.
"Our primary concern is to respond to our partner agencies' urgent need for food," said Jan Pruitt, president and chief executive of nonprofit through a press release. "Please help us, help them. This food shortage impacts food pantries, senior food programs, after school children's programs, shelters and soup kitchens."
The food bank serves 13 counties by distributing purchased, donated and prepared food through hundreds of feeding programs and agencies around the Dallas-Fort Worth area.
Over the summer, demand for food from the agencies and their clients increased with more families having more mouths to feed because schools were closed and children were not getting access to free breakfast and lunch.
The food bank has provided the following information on how to help:
Donate food. Collect healthy foods and drop off your donations at our Cockrell Hill distribution campus located at 4500 S. Cockrell Hill Road (near Ledbetter) Monday-Saturday. Canned food donations can be left in the lobby during business hours or in the after-hours collection boxes left by the front door. Needed items include canned vegetables, fruits and meats as well as low-sodium soup peanut butter, rice and beans.
Volunteer your time. NTFB needs up to 300 volunteers a day to sort and pack food at from Tuesday through Saturday - ages 10 and up. Sign up online or call 214-270-2055 or e-mail firstname.lastname@example.com.
Donate financially. Every $1 provides three meals, and a truck load of nutritious purchased food costs $9,000. Go online and donate, call 214-347-9594 or email email@example.com, or email@example.com.

State fund to help Barrel O' Fun's $17.56 million expansion project
An application for $500,000 from the Minnesota Investment Fund will be sought by Perham to help finance the $17.56 million Barrel O' Fun expansion.
The expansion of the snack company's pretzel and tortilla chip production is expected to create up to 100 new jobs.
Financing for the project includes $15 million in bank loans, and $2 million directly from Barrel O' Fun-KLN Enterprises.
Construction on the building is already underway. The 78,000 square foot addition is expected to be completed by mid-July.
The largest share of the project is the elaborate production and cooking equipment--which is about $10.65 million of the total investment.

Bryan Murray is staying with the Senators, at least as GM.
Murray said he's got the green light from owner Eugene Melnyk to try to improve the team this summer.
Speaking before Game 4 last night, Murray also revealed he was "reluctant" to fire coach John Paddock in February and go behind the bench himself.
"No (I'm not worried about my job). Everybody around here knew I was reluctant to do what had to be done (firing Paddock)," said Murray.
"I probably could have brought in a different guy (to coach). It was so late in the year. Seldom is there a chance to make a radical change with 17 or 18 games left.
"We've discussed where we're going with this organization. I wouldn't be the GM if I didn't think there was assurances going forward that we have the chance to add to this organization depth-wise and skill-wise."
Murray feels good about the Senators' talent, but knows he has holes to fill. Pending unrestricted free agents Wade Redden, Cory Stillman, Mike Commodore and Chris Kelly will likely be left to walk away.
"You have to have a combination of a lot of things," said Murray. "You have to have talent and you have to have skill guys. You get frustrated with them when you don't score.
"I look at Joe Thornton and he's getting beaten up, beaten up and until he scored the winning goal (for the Sharks vs. Calgary with less than 10 seconds left in Game 4 Tuesday to tie their series) on a tip, he was no good and (people said) they had to get rid of him in San Jose.
"You need skill players. You need chemistry guys. You need the Chris Neils and a Cody Bass. You need a strong defenceman and you need a skill defenceman. Every team is built that way."

Broken Embraces
- Directed and writtenby Pedro Almodovar
- Starring Lluis Homar and Penelope Cruz
- Classification: 14A
In the world of Pedro Almodovar, there are good films and some that are much better. After a string of intoxicating offerings including All About My Mother, Talk to her, Volver and Bad Education , Broken Embraces feels like a mild letdown that's calculated in every frame, but soft in its emotional punch.
Directed by Pedro Almodovar, Broken Embraces stars Lluis Homar and Penelope Cruz.
A patented Almodovar melodramedy, the film is a kind of tribute to the Hollywood Technicolor potboilers of the 1950s, with lush visuals and a convoluted plot that takes place in two time periods. Cinematic conceits and a velvety palette echoing mid-fifties Alfred Hitchcock and Douglas Sirk aside, the real object of interest here is the face and body of star Penelope Cruz, who is turned out in all manner of wigs, form-fitting outfits and sometimes nothing at all. In her fourth Almodovar film, Cruz the Muse plays Lena, a ravishing young actress of doubtful talent, who's at the centre of a love triangle between a director and the aged producer who is her husband.
The lively opening scene, set in 2008, features a middle-aged, blind screenwriter who goes by the name of Harry Caine (Almodovar veteran Lluis Homar), which evokes both his film-noir inclinations and the stormy weather in his past. Harry has just met a young woman on the street and asked her to come back to his apartment to read him the newspaper. She reads aloud an obit for a wealthy Chilean industrialist, Ernesto Martel (Jose Luis Gomez), whose name Harry clearly recognizes, but pretends he doesn't. A few minutes later, Harry is undressing the woman and having vigorous sex on the sofa.
They've barely finished their encounter when another older woman knocks on the door? His wife? No - and that's just the first of a series of red herrings in the movie. She's a long-time colleague and literary agent, Judit (Blanca Portillo), who chastises Harry for his casualness with strangers, but otherwise doesn't seem bothered.
Later, when Judit is out of town, and her twentysomething son, Diego (Tamar Novas), is laid up after an inadvertent overdose, Harry starts to tell him about his life 14 years ago. That's when he still had his eyesight and worked as a director, named Mateo Blanco. He also explains why the late Ernesto Martel's photographer son, Ray X (Ruben Ochandiano) recently visited them, wanting to collaborate on a script about "a son's revenge on his father's memory."
Back in the early nineties, Ernesto Martel employed and lusted after his secretary, Lena, a failed actress and one-time call-girl. Now needing money to care for her dying father, Lena turned to Ernesto. Later, married and living in designer luxury, she seeks work as an actress again. Martel has agreed to finance a film for her, a comedy called Girls and Suitcases (a madcap comedy reminiscent of Almodovar's own 1988 comedy, Women on the Verge of a Nervous Breakdown ) which was directed by Mateo. With Ernesto's influence, Lena gets the part but soon falls for the handsome director and his hands-on style. Her husband, Ernesto, is soon suspicious of their relationship and hires his gay, nerdy teenaged son (Ochandiano again) to shoot the "making-of" documentary, while secretly spying on Lena. Back at his apartment, he watches the silent footage in shock, as a deadpan lip reader fills him in on the blossoming affair. Confrontations, escape and tragedy follow.
Throughout, Almodovar's film is filled with doublings, echoes, repetitions and quotes from other movies. Many of the characters have at least two names and one secret. There are three visits to hospitals; two erotic escapes to remote beach resorts, to Ibiza (with Ernesto) and Lanzarote (with Mateo). There are several layers of films within films, including a sequence from Roberto Rossellini's Voyage to Italy on a TV set. Cruz alone has three names (including her call-girl designation) and is dressed in costumes suggesting everyone from Audrey Hepburn to Marilyn Monroe, and while Cruz acquits herself capably, this is, necessarily, an exercise in virtuosic superficiality.
All this might suggest that this enfolded movie could prove more rewarding with a repeat viewing, though, in fact, the opposite is true. Several scenes feel unnecessarily drawn out, the contrivances feel more forced and, at 128 minutes - Almodovar's longest film to date - Broken Embraces is an easy film to bid farewell to.

Baker feeling at home at third base
Baker feeling at home at third base
Partly because of matchups, and partly because of the need to keep reserves fresh, Baker has started two of the last three games at third base. Baker has played mostly second base this year, with some first base mixed in, and he was played mostly first base and outfield last year. But third was the position he played through the Minors with the Rockies.
Baker made several above-average defensive plays in Monday's 4-0 victory over the Giants -- "played his backside off," Hurdle said. It earned him another chance to flash his glove at his best position Wednesday, with ground-ball pitcher Aaron Cook on the mound.
"I feel really comfortable at second now, too, but third I feel comfortable at just because I've had so many reps, and it's where I've seen the ball come off the bat the most," Baker said. "At second, I kind of made myself get comfortable. But at third is where I really have a comfort level."
Baker was hitting .285 through Aug. 1, but a slump and on-and-off playing time contributed to a slump that dropped his average to .257 entering Wednesday. The Rockies had hoped starting him against Giants lefty Jonathan Sanchez would help, but Baker went 0-for-3 and Sanchez held the Rockies to three runs through seven innings.
"He's a good pitcher, and I don't think he gets a lot of respect and credit he deserves," said Baker, who was seeking instead to have success against Giants lefty Barry Zito on Wednesday. "Hitting's about rhythm and timing. As a bench guy, you just try to find a way to get rhythm and timing."

Boys Basketball: Swanson brothers make their return
LAKE CITY - It took nearly 5,000 miles, but Ryan and Ben Swanson finally stepped onto their hometown's basketball court for the first time as high school players on Thursday.
Spending their youth in Lake City, the Swanson family moved to Honolulu, Hawaii before either Ryan or Ben got to play for the high school team. Though the family moved, the Swansons always kept in touch with their friends in Lake City.
"(Ryan) always could shoot," said Tigers guard Ben Schramski. "he was one of our better players back in the day, and he still would be if he were with us today. ... He's still a good friend. We still wish he was here with us."
Now at Mid-Pacific Institute, a private school in Honolulu, Ryan, a senior, and Ben, a sophomore, got a hometown cheer when they walked onto the parquet floor at Lincoln High School against the hometown Tigers.
"I couldn't wait to get going," Ryan Swanson said. "Talking to the guys on the team, we were all excited. It happened and it was awesome."
Ben Swanson added, "I always thought I was going to play varsity for Lake City, and I always thought I'd play varsity on this court. I just didn't think it would be for another team."
In hopes of bringing the Swanson boys home for the holidays, Lake City and Mid-Pacific made arrangements for the Owls to come to Minnesota.
During the Lake City Invite, the Mid-Pacific players are staying with the Lake City players' families, and the two teams have bonded in the short time.
"We talked about how fun it would be to get Ryan and Ben back here for a ball game. Ryan's a senior, he's grown up with these guys, they've been gone now for five or six years," said Tigers head boys basketball coach Shawn Sweeney. "Their oldest brother, Drew, played with us in high school. We corresponded with the parents. Quinn (Sweeney, Lake City's statistician) was behind a lot of this."
Making a trip across the Pacific Ocean and across half the continental U.S., it didn't take the Mid-Pacific players long to realize they were no longer in the warm confines of Hawaii.
"Right when we got out of the airport, that was the biggest shock," Ryan Swanson said. "Even for me and Ben, seeing our breath, everyone was shocked. ... Earlier (Thursday), we had a snowball fight, and (our team) had no idea how to do a snow fight. But it was a great experience."
The two teams continued to bond on Wednesday over food and video games. But before then, the friendly trash-talking was well underway before the holiday tournament.
"We were texting Swan, calling him up," Schramski said. "We had a get-together (Wednesday) night, playing video games on the couch, and that was a lot of fun talking trash with him and getting him going."
Coming into Thursday's game with a 4-5 record, the Swanson brothers have been impactful players for the Owls. Ryan Swanson is the team's top scorer with 20.0 points per game, and Ben Swanson averaged 4.3 points and has grabbed 17 rebounds off the bench.
The Tigers game plan revolved on slowing down Ryan Swanson, and was executed effectively as Lake City held him to five points in a 57-34 victory. Ben Swanson finished with two points in 20 minutes.
Their debut in Lake City wasn't quite as fruitful as they hoped, but the experience at home with their team has been an unforgettable one for Ryan and Ben Swanson.
"It's awesome we get a home stay with (the Lake City players)," Ryan Swanson said. "They get to know us a little bit, and the next day, we step on the court against each other.
"It's interesting to have something like that to look back on. Any time we come back, we can stay with them again. There are great relationships being built."

Applesauce cake with caramel glaze
Cupcake Muffin
I love applesauce cake, and this one is particularly delicious. Along with the usual warm spices...it also contains freshly ground black pepper, which adds a surprising spiciness that's really tasty.
Mujaddara with spiced yogurt
Cupcake Muffin
This is one of those dishes that's nothing special right when you make it, but once the flavors have the chance to combine it becomes wonderful.
Brown butter and cheddar apple pie
Cupcake Muffin
The cheese adds the perfect salty counterpart to the sweet apple filling...The browned butter gives the apples a rich autumn flavor without the addition of spices.
Naughty rhubarb scones
Arctic Garden Studio
I'm not sure why I never thought about it before, but rhubarb seems to be the perfect scone pairing.

Amanda Hesser and Merrill Stubbs spent five years testing 1,400 recipes for Amanda's The Essential New York Times Cookbook. food52 grew out of an insight they had while working on the book: the best recipes come from home cooks. If you think about it, home cooks are practical and inventive, and these qualities lead to great recipes.
food52 recognizes talented home cooks by giving them a place to show off their work, a place where cooks of all kinds come to be inspired and engaged. They spent their first year at food52, creating the first crowd sourced cookbook and curated recipe database -- and the first food52 Cookbook, published by HarperCollins, will be out in October 2011. Through their weekly recipe contests, they discovered that not only are there exceptional home cooks all around, but many others who come to food52 to socialize and to participate in a community that cares about eating well.
food52's goal is to become a social hub for people who love food -- a place where they can find like-minded cooks. A place where, together, they create cookbooks, take on food projects, help others with real time food Q&A, Foodpickle, and band together to support local food producers.

Network Lifetime Maximization in Sensor Networks With Multiple Mobile Sinks
The availability of a large variety of sensor devices allows wireless sensor networks to be exploited in different application fields. Applications which rely on 24x7 (continuous) monitoring are required for environmental monitoring, precision agriculture, health-care, security surveillance, and national defense. Wireless sensor network has emerged as a major, inter-disciplinary research area. It is usually expected to operate for an extended period of time but the fundamental constraint on it is the limited energy supplies on sensors. Traditionally, a wireless sensor network consists of a fixed sink (or a base station) and hundreds of thousands of tiny sensors powered by batteries.
