What a heart-tugging story...dog survives and makes it home w 2 broken legs..
A family had all but given up on their dog, Mason, after a tornado that ripped through Birmingham, AL, on April 27th picked up the terrier mix, who was hiding in the garage, and carried him away.
But last week, when the family returned to their home to inspect the damage, they found Mason sitting on the front porch.
He has "2 broken legs", and yet, he managed to crawl home.
Mason was to undergo an operation to realign his bones (adding splints). Doctors expect his recovery to take a while, but ultimately successful recovery.

It's that time of year, TV watchers.
Network upfronts are all this week, which means news of show renewals and cancellations will be rolling in faster than you can tweet your reactions. And even though the networks have already made plenty of announcements for a number of shows (yay, Chuck!), we're still awaiting news on several bubble shows.
That's why we put together this list of the major networks and the fate of their shows. As upfronts week continues, we'll be updating it as we go, until we've got every network's decision mapped out for you…
TWITTER: Follow Team WWK all week for constant scoop from network upfronts: @JenniferArrow @DruMoorhouse @JBomb11 @fatherdowling
If the show is bolded, it's already been renewed for next season (and sometimes beyond). If the show is still awaiting official confirmation of a pickup, it's simply in italics. If the show has a strikethrough, well, you've probably already figured out that means it's been canceled.
And yes, we know some shows are definitely sure things for renewal, but until we get an official announcement from the network, we're keeping it as "not yet renewed," just to be on the safe side. Upfronts are known to drop some shockers on us!

Josh Turner Suprise will Make You Cry
Even if you're not watching the current season of American Idol and hate country music, you still need to watch the following heartwarming video. In it, country superstar Josh Turner surprises Scotty McCreery, one of the top three contestants on Idol, during his hometown visit. If you're a fan of either or both, you'll like it even more.
McCreery is the country guy on this year's show. At just 17, he's humble, down-to-earth, and just a seemingly good guy. As he's up performing during his hometown visit (and those are always moving enough) in Garner, N.C., Turner comes out on stage. At first, McCreery has no idea why the crowd is going wild, then when he realizes Turner is on stage with him, he's blown away. Chills!
You can tell it was a complete surprise to McCreery and in no way rehearsed. I love that and think there way too few true surprises in life ... of the joyous kind anyway.
I'm also a total sap when it comes to American Idol. I get teary every time I see the stories of the contestants, their hopes and dreams, and the joy in their eyes and those of their family when they belt out the tunes. And to see this young kid -- he's just a junior in high school -- meet and perform with his idol just melts me into a puddle of tears.
Plus, as much as my former punk-rock-loving self is aghast to admit, I have grown to love country music over the years. The first song they performed together "Your Man" is one of my current favorites, and, incidentally the Turner song McCreery auditioned with and has performed on Idol. The second one they sang was Turner's first hit, "Long Black Train," which is another great tune. For as nervous as McCreery was, he did an amazing job at keeping his composure; and they sounded good together.
Whether McCreery wins the American Idol crown this season or not, Turner may have just given him something even better. And I have feeling anyone on the fence as to who they want to see as the next American Idol may be firmly in the McCreery camp after seeing this video.
How Should You Handle Potty Accidents
Potty-training is one of the most divisive subjects in the battlefield of motherhood. No matter where you turn, someone is going to offer unsolicited advice about how and when you should potty-train you toddler. During my daughter's toddlerhood, I heard every extreme on the subject. "My son was potty-trained at 14 months. I spanked him if he had an accident," said one mom. Another told me that she sees no reason to pressure her 4-year-old into potty-learning, and that she figures the child will do it "when she's ready."
The subject of how to handle accidents is sure to come up when you begin the tireless adventure of potty-training your child. While I don't have the answers for every mom, these are the tips that worked best for us to handle potty accidents.
1. Don't spank. While I know some moms who have proclaimed success using spankings to address potty accidents, I know many more who have seen complete failure with this technique. Spankings teach children to be afraid and embarrassed of accidents, and to associate a natural bodily function with punishment. From what I've seen, toddlers do best when they associate the potty with something positive, not when they view it as an escape from something physically painful. A swat on the butt will not cure a child of his inability to control his bladder or bowels. It will, however, cause him to feel very distressed about the entire process of maturing into the potty-using stage.
2. Don't humiliate your child. Potty accidents are embarrassing to both you and your child, especially if they occur in a public place. But there is no need to worsen an already-distressing situation if your toddler has an accident. Your toddler needs to know that you're on the same team, and that you don't purposefully seek to hurt or upset her. If she wets herself at the playground, the best thing you can do is discretely whisper, "Wow, this is embarrassing! Let's get you a change of clothes. I don't think anyone noticed."
3. Say you're upset. My toddler went a week with no potty-related accidents whatsoever, then had an accident in the children's library. Yikes! As we raced to the potty to clean up and change, I did provide support and comfort -- but I also made it clear that I was upset. Point out the obvious so that your child understands how these accidents affect you. "I'm really upset. This is very embarrassing and I'd been excited about how well you were doing with the potty," gets the message across appropriately. Your toddler doesn't need to be humiliated or shamed, but she does need to know that potty accidents inconvenience you.
4. Offer a reminder. Every single time your toddler has an accident, make a point of reminding him of how and when to use the potty. Tell him to alert you when he feels like he needs to use the potty, and remind him that it's not a good idea to "hold it" longer than necessary. Make sure your toddler knows that he can ask you to go to the potty any time and any place, even if it is inconvenient. An inconvenient trip to the bathroom is far easier than a messy accident in a public place!
5. Address the accident promptly. I have heard many parents recommend that parents allow their potty-training toddlers to wear soiled or wet clothes for an extended period of time, to teach the toddler a lesson. I do not view this as a viable option for handling potty accidents. Most toddlers who are developmentally ready to potty-train can remove their own wet or soiled clothes. If they can't, they may face a painful or even dangerous rash due to the bacteria and ammonia against their skin. Don't force this on your child unnecessarily; it isn't likely to have a positive outcome. Instead, deal with the accident quickly so that your toddler understands that an accident has occurred and that it needs to be addressed.
This mother should be in jail..giving 8 year old botox..WHAT?!?!
Remember that terrible mother who said she gives Botox and "virgin waxes" to her 8-year-old daughter to improve her chances at beauty pageants? She's real, and says she's doing nothing wrong. Good Morning America tracked down little Britney Campbell and mother Kerry, an aesthetician who regularly injects botulism into her daughter's face.
Botox Mom says her baby wants the procedures: "We talked about it. She didn't exactly ask me about it, but I know she was complaining about her face having wrinkles, and things like that." (Kerry keeps referring to "wrinkles," but when she points them out in pictures, I'm pretty sure she's just pointing at Britney's dimples?) "It's a tough world in the pageant world, I'm telling you," the hard-knock child abuser concludes.

Vietnamese Pho Soup
One of the items on my cooking bucket list for years has been to learn how to make pho soup. A big bowl of comforting, warm, aromatic, fresh, piled-high-with-garnishes, awkward-to-pronounce-but-awesome-to-taste Vietnamese pho.
Pho is one of my most comforting of comfort foods. I love it on snowy winter days and in the blazing heat of summer. I love it at my favorite hole-in-the-wall restaurant in Kansas City, and I love finding new Vietnamese restaurants when I travel. I love it when I'm feeling great, and it is definitely my preferred noodle soup of choice (sayonarra, chicken noodle!) when I'm sick. Totally not kidding — when I caught a cold in Barcelona this past winter, I skipped tapas for a night and tracked down the one Vietnamese restaurant in the neighborhood for a steaming hot bowl of pho. It hit the spot — as did the glass of sangria that came with it. When in Spain… :)

State probes alleged child neglect after 2 kids die in fire
BY MARK KONKOL Writer at email@example.com January 24, 2012 4:56AM
The apartment where a 3-year-old girl and a 2-year-old boy died following a fire at 319 E. 130th Street. January 24, 2012. | Brian Jackson~Sun-Times
Article Extras
Updated: February 26, 2012 8:08AM
A brother and sister died Tuesday in a raging apartment fire on the Far South Side that their surviving brother said started when he and his sister fixed themselves a late night snack while their pregnant mother slept.
It was past 3 a.m., but they wanted to warm up pizza — a leftover deep dish covered in ground beef, jalapeno and green peppers, 6 year-old Curnet Myles later told investigators.
Their mother, Alicia Myles, eight months pregnant, was fast asleep.
Myles' daughter Destiny turned on the "eye" — that's what the 3 year old called the stove burner, according to the story Curnet told investigators. The flame set fire to a pizza box on the range. Then, Destiny tried to put it out with a house slipper. When that didn't work, Destiny and Curnet put the burning pizza box in a nearby cabinet, the boy said.
The fire spread quickly at the three-story apartment in the 300 block of East 130th Street, filling the house with a thick, black cloud that set off the smoke detector.
Myles woke up to the sound of blaring alarm and choking.
"I woke up and threw up three globs of blood," Myles told the Chicago Sun-Times Tuesday afternoon, as she waited to be released from Roseland Community Hospital. "There was a fire in the kitchen. I tried to grab the children. I tried to grab my daughter, but she was mad at me. There's no light fixture in my room and I couldn't find them. I passed out three times."
Myles regained consciousness and ran outside wearing only a short T-shirt.Curnet, who family members call "Poo-Poo," followed wearing only thin pajamas and clutching his "Blues Clues" blanket.
Destiny and the baby, Jeremiah, 18 months, who had just started to walk, were still inside.
'Sound of a baby choking'
From her bedroom window, Eucita Broughton saw smoke pouring from the adjacent building and Myles, her 25-year old neice, out in the bitter cold. Her alarm clock read 3:27 a.m.
Broughton's son, Leotis Broughton, 22, rushed outside. Myles was franticly screaming, "'My kids are in there,'" Leotis Broughton said.
Curnet called out for his sister and started to run toward the burning building. Leotis Broughton stopped the boy and shooed him away. Cunet stood barefoot and weeping in the frozen grass when another cousin carried him safely inside.
Myles collapsed several times in the cold. Neighbor Wolanda Walker dressed Myles in warm clothes.Other neighbors carried the shaken mother, who had blood dripping down her chin, to an ambulance.
Leotis Broughton joined Chicago police Sgt. Michael Saladino and a "repo man" from Manteno, David Johns Jr., in a brave attempt to search for the kids.
Johns, who saw smoke while repossessing a car nearby,got there first.
He kicked in the door and ignored danger. He took a gasp of air and crawled inside. He heard a noise — something less than a cry for help.
"It was the sound of a baby choking. Like the last ... gasp and whimper," Johns said. "It was surreal, all that smoke and all I could hear was that sound. I was focused on getting to that sound. Pushing forward, forward, forward. But I couldn't go any farther."
Saladino, who was on patrol at a neighboring public housing complex, arrived as Johns ran out of the apartment. Together they went back inside. Johns clung to Saladino's belt as they crept down the hallway. It was impossible to see. Flames shot over their heads.
"We yelled so the kids might hear us," said Saladino, the father of 2-month old twins. "I didn't hear whimpering."
They had to turn back. The fire got too powerful. The smoke too thick.
Leotis Broughton felt helpless."There was nothing I could do," he said. "I was sad and mad. Mad I couldn't save them."
Firefighters arrived and snuffed the fire. They found the lifeless bodies of Destiny, on the floor near the bed, and of Jeremiah, still in his crib. Both kids were later pronounced dead at Roseland Hospital, the Cook County Medical Examiner said.
Both Saladino and Johns were treated for smoke inhalation and later released. Broughton wasn't hurt.
Myles was hospitalized in serious condition and treated for smoke inhalation. Her condition had improved by early afternoon and she was able to call family members and even talk to her only surviving son.
Curnet was with family members Tuesday. When investigators told Curnet his brother and sister died in the fire, the first-grader at Dubois Elementary School asked, "'When are they were going to come back home? Are they going to fix them so they can come back to life?'" family members said.
Later Tuesday, Myles signed herself out of Roseland Hospital with plans to stay "somewhere on the North Side."
DCFS investigates
First, Myles wanted to see Curnet. But the devastated mother was not allowed to take her only surviving son with her.
The Illinois Department of Child and Family Services launched an investigation of "allegations of neglect against the mother of this family relating to the tragedy," DCFS spokesman Kendall Marlowe said.
Family members said they were contacted Tuesday afternoon by a DCFS investigator and told not to let Myles take custody of the boy. This isn't the first time the state child welfare agency has been involved with Myles and her children. DCFS found substantiated evidence of negelect against Myles in 2006 and 2008, and is investigating a child abuse report received on Nov. 28, Marlowe said.
DCFS also found substantiated evidence of abuse against two of Myles boyfriends in 2009 and 2011.
Sources said Myles has previously been addicted to huffing mothballs to get high. Fire investigators said Myles admitted to huffing mothballs in the past. She told investigators she wasn't high during the fire, a source said.
'Hold 'em tight'
Despite the six-year-old boy's story about how his sister started the fire, investigators haven't determined the cause yet. Investigators said Myles told them she removed the stove knobs so the kids wouldn't play with the burners. And all stove controls were in the off position after the fire, a source said. Investigators are exploring the possibility that Curnet started the fire while playing with matches.
Regardless of how the fire started, Saladino, 34, hasn't been able to sleep.
And Johns just can't shake that haunting sound of the babies' last breaths.
"We tried our hardest to get to her babies," Johns said. "My heart and my thoughts go out to her."
On Tuesday night, Johns was finally ready to rest with his own family.
"I've got these four babies at home," he said. "It's going to be a full bed tonight. They're all going to be there and I'm gonna hold 'em tight."

Jackie's Southwestern Mid-Century Modern Mix
House Tour
Name: Jackie Rollins
Location: Southwest Austin, Texas
Size: 1,850 square feet
Years lived in: 8 years; Owned
You can learn a lot from Jackie Rollins and her home. Now retired, this former IRS agent and avid traveler proves staying busy keeps you youthful. She's also inspiration for anyone still a little timid about how to make a home true to themselves: her house is 100% her style, and she's filled it with her favorite things that bring her joy every day (and have great stories).
Apartment Therapy Survey:
My Style: Southwestern — Santa Fe and Taos, New Mexico — with touches of "diversity." I have been "keeping house" since 1955, so I have had lots of time to acquire a variety of looks and trends.
Inspiration: The decorating and styles of other homes I lived in for over 50 years. They enabled me to know what I wanted in my very first brand new home where I was allowed custom choices. These were inspired by my previous older homes (including rentals), specially the last one in Travis County, which had two previous owners and where I lived for 10 years.
Favorite Element: The ability to view my favorite items in prominent spaces and the ability to make it look the way I want — Southwestern with touches of other looks.
Biggest Challenge: Avoiding a "cluttered" look. I don't want to overdo displaying items.
What Friends Say: Lovely, beautiful, awesome.
Biggest Embarrassment: None.
Proudest DIY: Not exactly DIY, but achieving the right mix for a mid -century/southwestern/eclectic look.
Biggest Indulgence: The window treatments.
Best Advice: Keep the look that is pleasing to YOU.
Thanks, Jackie!

"Biggest Embarrassment: None." - Haha, love it!
Wow!! I have never been a fan of southwestern style before, but mixing it with mid century actually might have changed my mind (LOVE the area rug with that amazing furniture). This is a fantastic house tour.
Never would have thought of mixing these two styles but it works! Lovely.
This is a great house, and I love Jackie's spirit.
Jackie, can you tell me who did the horse painting over the fireplace and the statue of the woman on the mantle?
I'm a big fan of Southwestern decor, so I naturally enjoyed this tour. Since no one in my family is from the Southwest nor have we ever lived there, I can't imagine I could pull it off in my home though. Still, I love the textiles, pottery, and colours of it all.
I've always wondered if mid century furnishings and south western worked and this is very clean and blending nicely.
I thought the photo of Jackie at the counter was a cut out. I had to stare at it for a minute.
Jackie, I love your home.
Love love LOVE the bedroom rocker.
An unexpected, fun mix and so personal! Terrific tour and love the old turntable!
I love this house! Like Kathryn1123....I would like the source/artist of the horse painting over the fireplace.
What a beautiful space. Subtle, understated, and what fantastic pieces. Thank you so much for letting us see your home.
I love the small rug - does anyone know of some sources for affordable southwestern looking rugs?
Jackie, your advices are the best ever. Thank you!
I thoroughly enjoyed this tour. Thank you for sharing your beautiful home!
Really lovely. Jackie, may I ask where you got your fireplace insert? Lame question, but I have one of those old skool fake fireplace mantels in my apt. and I can't seem to find an insert small enough.
Wow! What a fabulous place! Love the mix of southwest and MCM, beautifully executed!
I made an account just so I could comment. Love the decor. However, as someone who was born in Austin and grew up there, I have to say that I've never heard a part of the city or suburbs referred to as "Southwest Austin." There's South Austin, West Austin, Beecaves and Westlake, but no Southwest Austin.
Are you kidding me? This is the best house tour EVER!
Another vote for "I would never have thought of putting MCM with southwest." It looks great, Jackie. Thank you for sharing your home!
Elizabeth, maybe it has been a while. There is a huge area southwest of the city - Circle C was the first big subdivision. With all of the new roads out that way, The southwest part of town has grown and is still growing like crazy! If you look on Google map at the area near Slaughter Lane and Mopac, you'll see what I mean. Great article, by the way.
Some really nice textiles here!
Fantastic blending!
@brigette.indelicato, there is a rug collection currently at West Elm that they describe as follows: "an exclusive collection of handwoven rugs created in collaboration with Santa Fe's Museum of Indian Arts & Culture (MIAC)" -- this might interest you!
Absolutely gorgeous. Especially love the woven wall hanging.
Thank you Jackie for sharing your home.
Jackie, is that Opuntia 'Bunny Ears'? Love it!
I was so excited to see the Amy Ringholz horse painting in the tour! I was an assistant director of an art gallery that sold her work in AZ. I know her work and her well ;) Fantastic house tour, Jackie. I too channel a bit a MCM with southwest. I have my Ringholz wolf in my living room (though it is a much older version of her work, when she first started)....you can see it here:
Love the Drexel Declaration dining room suite. Perfect for your intention of mixing southwestern style with vintage modern.
What a wonderful expression of individuality, organisation and style. Not many people have the foresight and conviction to hold on to pieces for so many years and create a wonderful home later in life. I'm in awe.
Love this decor, Jackie! So warm and inviting!
Beautiful wall color and some nice MCM pieces, but too much Southwest; just as I wouldn't care for an east coast place looking too New England / colonial or Midwest farm country.
So beautiful, Jackie! Thank you for sharing your home!
Love your style! Thank you for sharing with it with us, and thanks to posters who are sharing sources. (The "horny toad" on the hearth appears to be from Austin metal artist Art Schoenig.)
Very cool, Jackie. Nice job.
I have the same Drexel hutch! Love seeing how someone else has used it. Beautiful home!
I felt home :D
Love Amy Ringholz! I first saw her work in a magazine years and years ago, it took my breath away...Still does.
Gorgeous home.
I'm not a fan of either style and yet I found Jackie executed the merging of the two styles perfectly. I am a HUGE fan of Austin and I am convinced this city has the coolest of everything but mostly the coolest people ever! Thank you for sharing.
Finally, finally, finally, someone over 35 on Apt. Therapy!!! I'm so happy, I'm always complaining that those of us over 60 can still be cool, we do know how to use a computer and we know what a blog is, we can operate a cell phone, and we know how to decorate. You made my day Apt. Therapy. Jackie, love the MCM especially, never a huge fan of Southwest decor but you did a good mix without it being kitschy. I'm astonished your MCM pieces are original and so happy you didn't throw them out for something "modern" in the 1980's, that would have been horrendous.
Love the danish modern used with the southwestern touches--beautiful blend. My parents, living in Albuquerque, have the same chairs (and perhaps the same table?). My sisters and I are realizing that having grown up with danish modern meant that, though it would be long dormant, our appreciation for the style would resurface as we got older. We're glad our parents kept their own parents' DM furniture and their own, because eventually we'll have the pleasure of including it in our various homes, one of which is southwestern, one mid-century modest, and one simplified northern Californian.
Simple and bold together... who would have thought? Perfect blending of textures, patterns and space arrangement. Like a breath of fresh air to see neutrals played up so well. Such an escape from seeing AT overdose of turquoise.
such a lovely job tying the mid century and desert styles together!
Gorgeous. I love the plants you chose by the fireplace.
I loved what worked well; but didn't like the "Tiffany" lamp in the bedroom, the Frank Lloyd Wright & the hearth-shaped "country" cabinet killed it for me! Otherwise I love the mix of mid-century with SW style. Loved the dining room rug!!
Austin in not the desert, and I lived there for a long time and our two sons were born there and I'm afraid this just looks like my mother-in-law's house exactly and my three much older sisters-in-law's homes exactly.
To each their own. Just this IS my mother-in-law's house almost exactly and she lives in North Austin!
Please forgive me for taking so long to respond! I just now noticed that there were 44 comments to the article!
Amy Ringholz out of Jackson Hole - and shown in several SW galleries - is the artist. I found this painting of DUSTY in Santa Fe at Gallery 822 on Canyon Rd in 2008 but actually bought and paid for it in 2009. If you go to www.amyringholz.com you'll see that her current work is more whimsical so I'm glad I found Dusty when I did. The statue on the mantle was purchased from a hotel gift shop in Chihuahua, Mexico in 1991.
Amy Ringholz. Her work since 2009, when I purchased this painting of "Dusty," has become more whimsical. Check her out at www.amyringholz.com
Circle C where I live is definitely in Southwest Austin. Thank you for your compliment!
I'm afraid I don;t have a clue! The builder, Wilshire Homes, installed it when they constructed my house in 2004.
Yes, from Living Desert in Spicewood.
It could have been. My daughter found it at a Goodwill store and gave it to me as a Mother's Day gift several years ago.

Wednesday morning, Minneapolis and St. Louis Park legislators are scheduled to introduce a measure to legalize same-sex marriage in Minnesota.
Watch the announcement live on Patch, courtesy of TheUptake! Tune in to this webpage at 10 a.m.
At 10 a.m., Sen. Scott Dibble (DFL-61) and Reps. Karen Clark (DFL-62A) and Steve Simon (DFL-46B) will join Rabbi Michael Latz from Southwest Minneapolis' Shir Tikvah synagogue and United Church of Christ leader Rev. Karen Smith Sellers to formally announce the introduction of a legalization bill. All five were prominent leaders in the defeat of a 2012 state constitutional amendment seeking to ban same-sex marriage.
The legislation is co-authored by state Sen. Branden Peterson (R-35). National same-sex marriage opponents have vowed to unseat Peterson if he goes ahead with his sponsorship of the bill.
"Republicans like Branden Petersen don't realize that not only is voting to redefine marriage a terrible policy, it is also a career-ending vote for a Republican," National Organization for Marriage head Brian Brown said in a statement emailed to reporters. "NOM will do everything in our power to defeat any Republican who votes in favor of same-sex marriage."
In the same announcement, NOM pledged $500,000 to unseat any Republican who supported same-sex marriage, and to support any Democrat who opposed same-sex marriage with an equal amount of money.
Legalization opponents recently floated a "counter offer" that would create a special class of legal partnerships, as between an adult serving as their sibling's caretaker, that same-sex couples could also access. The proposal only would grant same-sex couples a fraction of the rights included in civil marriage, and has been unpopular with same-sex marriage advocates.
Same-sex marriage advocates have so far been bullish about their chances for passing the bill and are trying to turn the network of volunteers who helped defeat the 2012 amendment into a tool to get same-sex marriage legalization passed.
UPDATE 12:39 p.m. 2/27/13: In response to the new legislation the head of same-sex marriage campaigners Minnesotans United for All Families issued the following statement:
"In Minnesota, we don't turn our backs on family – and this legislation will make that statement as true as possible. No Minnesotan should be singled out and excluded from enjoying a basic freedom, like the freedom to marry the person they love, just because of who they are. There is no substitute for the unique promise of love and commitment inherent to marriage, and it is time for Minnesota state law to extend the freedom to marry to same-sex couples.
"Same-sex couples pay taxes in Minnesota. They vote here, run businesses here, and serve in the military on behalf of their fellow Minnesotans. They work hard and contribute to the system just like anyone else, and they have children who deserve to grow up in stable families with married parents. The legislation introduced today – and authored by a bipartisan group of legislators – will ensure that in Minnesota, freedom always means freedom for everyone. Minnesotans United is proud to be mobilizing thousands of grassroots marriage supporters across our state to make sure every legislator in Saint Paul knows that passing this legislation in 2013 is an absolutely priority, and that it is a vote that they will be supported for having the leadership to take."

In my reserach I focus on second language acquisition. I am particularly interested in cognitive processes of memory and attention underlying language learning. I wrote my thesis on task complexity and interaction during task-based L2 performance at the University of Amsterdam (Netherlands). As a post-doctoral researcher at Mannheim University (Germany) I focused on preschool teachers' language training competences. Currently, I work on projects about the external validation of task complexity and on priming during task-based computer mediated communication.
I am interested in supervising PhD theses in the area of second language acquisition. In particular, I would be interested in (psycholinguistic) projects about tasks, priming, learner-learner interaction, and computer mediated communication (CMC) that make use of our lab (eye tracking, E-Prime a.s.o.). I may work on the source/target languages German, Dutch, French, Italian.
I am the organisor of the Second Language Learning and Teaching research group (SLLAT). We meet several times a term for invited talks and discussions of current topics in SLA and L2 pedagogy.
In autum 2013 I will teach LING411: Second Language Acquisition.
In June 2013 I will visit Hong Kong to teach 'Task-based language teaching' (LING407d).
During the spring term 2013 I will teach the class 'Task-based language teaching' (LING 407) and the six-week module 'Instructed Second Language Acquisition' (LING 408).
In autum 2012 I assist Diane Potts in the class 'Introduction to Language Teaching' (LING 415) and Andrea Revesz in the class 'Second Language Acquisition' (LING 411).

The International Symposium on CD1/NKT Cells
The Tsurugaoka Hachimangu
The Tsurugaoka Hachimangu
The Kamakura Daibutsu(Koutokuin)
Tremendous progress was made in the field of NKT cell biology last year. The structure of the NKT cell receptor and alpha-GalCer-CD1d triple complex was successfully solved. The findings allow us to understand more clearly the nature of interaction between NKT cells and their ligands at the molecular level. This comprehension will enable us to grasp the development and function of NKT cells, which will lead to clinical applications. The field of NKT cell research is thus entering a new era.
The 5th International Symposium on CD1/NKT cells will bring together once again researchers focusing on various topics, such as development and homeostasis of NKT cells, NKT cell receptor structure and ligand recognition, CD1 biology: antigen processing and presentation, regulatory and effector function of NKT cells, roles of NKT cells in autoimmune and allergic diseases, roles of NKT cells in infectious diseases and tumor control.
All speakers listed below have been invited:
Albert Bendelac (University of Chicago), Mitchell Kronenberg (LIAI), Vincenzo Cerundolo (University of Oxford), Michael Brenner (Brigham and Women's Hospital), Gennaro De Libero (University Hospital Basel), Agnes Lehuen (Hopital Saint Vincent de Paul), Robson MacDonald (Ludwig Institute), Paolo Dellabona (San Raffaele Scientific Institute), Steven Porcelli (Albert Einstein College of Medicine), Dale Godfrey (University of Melbourne), Shizuo Akira (Osaka University)
We will invite more speakers nominated by the chairpersons.

Dr. Don,
I am looking to purchase my first home in the near future. In order
to finance a down payment I'm planning on borrowing money from my
Roth IRA. I have had the account for two years. Is there a minimum
time I must have the account open before I can borrow money? Also,
are there any restrictions to the amount I can borrow or when the
money would have to be repaid?
-- Mike Minimum
You can't borrow money from your Roth IRA account. There aren't
any lending provisions in IRA accounts, whether they're Roth IRA
or traditional IRA accounts.
There is a way to borrow the money for 60 days in
the process of transferring the money from the existing account
to a new account. When you move the money from one IRA account
to another, you have 60 days to fund the new account from the proceeds
of the old account. Since financing a down payment isn't a
60-day proposition, this provision of the tax code isn't useful
in your situation and is not recommended.
Taking a distribution from the account for your down
payment, instead of a loan, might make sense. The Roth IRA has a
first-time-home-buyer provision, allowing you to avoid the early
withdrawal 10-percent penalty tax on the distribution, but the age
of the account is also a consideration. If the account is only
two years old, and you've only been contributing to a Roth IRA over
that two-year time period, the contributions don't meet the age
requirement for an early distribution for the first-time-home-buyer
An IRS flowchart
shows the requirements for a distribution to be a qualified distribution
and thereby avoid the 10-percent penalty tax on an early distribution.
590, Individual Retirement Arrangements, has more information on the taxation
of Roth distributions. Key in the discussion is that Roth contributions are
made with after-tax dollars, so it's the penalty tax on nonqualified distributions
and potential taxation of the investment earnings in the account that are relevant.
you want to pursue tapping your Roth IRA for a down payment on a home, you should
talk to a professional tax adviser about the taxes due on the distribution out
of the account.
To ask a question of Dr. Don, go to the "Ask
the Experts" page and select one of these topics: "financing
a home," "saving & investing" or "money."

President Barack Obama is reassuring the public that jobs and the economy are his top priority.
At the end of a historic and emotionally charged week that began with his nationally televised announcement that Osama bin Laden had been killed in Pakistan during a raid by U.S. special forces, Obama on Saturday returned to promoting his energy agenda.
U.S. forces raided a compound in Abbottabad, Pakistan, where bin Laden had lived for several years, killing the al-Qaida leader.
The news of bin Laden's demise dominated the week's headlines.
"So although our economy hasn't been the focus of the news this week, not a day goes by that I'm not focused on your jobs, your hopes and your dreams," Obama said in his weekly radio and Internet address.
He recorded the address Friday while visiting an Indianapolis transmissions plant that makes systems for hybrid vehicles.
Obama has been traveling around the country to talk up his plan to reduce U.S. consumption of foreign oil — and the price Americans pay for it — by increasing domestic oil production, encouraging a shift to alternative energy sources and building vehicles that use less fuel.
He says shifting to jobs like those at the Indianapolis factory will create more jobs and help the economy grow.
"The clean energy jobs at this plant are the jobs of the future, jobs that pay well right here in America," Obama said. "It's clean energy companies like this one that will keep our economy growing, create new jobs and make sure America remains the most prosperous nation in the world."
Republicans devoted their weekly message to bin Laden.
Massachusetts Sen. Scott Brown praised years of diligent work by the military and by intelligence professionals to pinpoint bin Laden's location. The al-Qaida leader's death, Brown said, sends a clear message to others like bin Laden.
"The example will not be lost on other terrorists," Brown said. "Any escape they make will be temporary. Any sanctuary they find will be uncovered. Those who harm or threaten the American people will be dealt with, on our terms, however long it takes."

Ah the saccharine sweet words of a demagogue par excellence. Jobs, what jobs…?
We've lost over 600,000 per month since 2000 to China, Malaysia, India, Korea and elsewhere. Since the 80's it's estimated we've lost at least 20-30 million jobs to offshore locations which includes the out-sourcing of inhouse job functions within domestic industries. Also the impact of H1-b visas has impacted our technical and professional communities mightily by giving foreign nationals an easy way to enter this country for the purpose of employment on our soil. Our college graduates in many instances are flipping burgers or serving latte's at SBUX to make ends make and to hopefully get some 'benefits'.
Our leaders are slinging b.s. plain and simple. The hemorraghing of the remaining good jobs is still in progress while this jive turkey speaks of creating more. How so Mr. President…?! ? : |
This President and his 'advisers' are nothing but facilitators for implementing the finishing touches on the creation of the shadowy oligarchs' 'global planatation' with the U.S. simply to become a minor enterprise zone within.
Seemingly we are toast as long as we continue to buy into the lies issued from the lips of these slick-talking interlopers in high places. : |
Carl Nemo **==
Mr. Nemo: "global plantation" is a very apt term for the current economic "order," despite the term being unacceptably HONEST.
As Woody points out, this "green job" theory is just that; a theory. Unless one looks at the disastrous results in Spain. This theory reminds me of the story of two dimbulbs who started a business buying hay in Florida for $1 a bale and then selling in Ohio for $1 a bale. After a while their books looked pretty bad. So the smarter of the two thought things over and said, "I got it! We need to get a bigger truck."
Maybe last year the president was referring to THIS year as the "recovery summer." This falls within the Dept. of Wishful Thinking. President Obama's top priority is President Obama, and anyone assuming otherwise is badly mistaken.
In regards to actually standing on principle to create jobs or anything else, remember that the British Special Air Service's motto: "Who Dares, Wins."
Our president's motto is, "Who Dares Me Wins."
The only problem of course being that Obama's clean energy agenda has been proven to destroy 2 jobs for every one that it creates, aka Spain.
Obamas very good with Lip Service! It does not take much to fool most of the American public. And Obama knows it! the problem is that the public cannot see through Obama's obvious and transparent disguise!!

Graphical displays are a
highly efficient form of communicating information. The
purpose of this study is to investigate what power graphical
displays have in revealing structure to the observer. This
has benefits that are widely applicable and will help us to
learn which kind of structures are easier for us to see,
what structures we react more strongly to. This knowledge
can then be incorporated into graphical displays to make
them even more effective, i.e. make it easier for us to
understand them and digest the information provided
You are being

you with a summary of our findings. We will also share
summaries of our findings in research journals and with the
general public. A dataset with non-identifiable, aggregated
information will be published online.
If you decide to
participate in this study there will be no direct
benefit to you. It is hoped that the information gained in
this study will benefit society by furthering the field of
statistical graphics with possible impact on a variety of
data-dependent fields. You will get to experience
state-of-the-art graphical methodology in a game-like test
You will not
have any costs from participating in this study. If you have

Food, sun and family, what a gorgeous day outside and I can't think of a better way to spend Fathers Day than at the water park.
"We have our Fathers Day special going on, any family that comes in with their dad the dad gets in free as long as they got the kids with them. It's the same packages for everybody else, everybody's here having a we have the River here 97.9 and everyone's here having a good time," says Head Life Guard Meghan O'Dell. Today at the Electric City Water Park dad's special day comes with some special fathers day offers.
"It's just the fathers getting in free its what our main special is today everyone who comes in participates in the 97.9 stuff is going to end up getting prizes awards we have stuff going on with our concessions and the more people that come the more people find out," says O'Dell. Great Falls residence are out enjoying both the sunshine and spend some quality time with dad. "Considering that it is fathers day, yeah definitely I can't wait for him to be here he just took my little brother to the baseball field to hit some balls," explained Chase Thomas. "Ah it's great, its great to be able to spend time with my children and be able to get in for free that is a perk," added local father Travis Tigart. Great Falls only water park is happy to help local families make this years Fathers Day one to remember. "So far obviously it's a Sunday so it is a little slower in the morning but so far we have a great group of people everyone is already starting to have a good time, dads are here having a good time with their kids," said O'Dell.

reviews & comments (44)
Not a fan of this one. Followed recipe exactly as written. The most positive comment I can give is it's better than Campbell's canned tomato soup.
Used 1 can of tomatoes and the last batch of romas from my garden. Delicious! The ginger, cumin, jalepeno & garlic great combo
Delicious! Made this with some changes as part of our meal planning from the Meal Planning Moms. See step-by-step photos here: http://wp.me/p2FUgj-2nY
Served in small cups chilled at a party - crowd favorite. Warmed is ever better as the heat of the flavors increases. My favorite tomato soup ever. I add canned fire roasted Muir Glen diced tomatoes.
I used: - 1 can of tomatoes without juice - fresh tomatoes peeled, half the volume of canned tomatoes - 1 cup of chicken broth - 1 1/4 teaspoon chili This turned out to be just right.
excellent and easy! my husband LOVES tomato soup and he said this was his favourite that i have ever made.
The soup is great but I served it with pieces of chicken breast and rice noodles. Red peppers, cilantro, lime wedges and thin slices of carrots was as topping. Fantastic outcome.
Added 2 more jalapeno's for more spice, cut the chicken broth in half and add in stead heavy cream to match, blend with Vita-mix no need to strain. Top with basil. The best...
For my money, the Tomato Dal soup on this site is much more interesting and delicious than this soup, and contains some of the same flavors. But it's true that I used fresh tomatoes for the dal soup, and canned tomatoes here--as the recipe suggests. Perhaps the fresh are just so much better that I was spoiled. It's also true that I didn't strain this soup after making it, since I wanted something hearty for a cold day. I wouldn't make it again if I didn't have an immersion blender. I'm not ruling out the possibility of making it again, but neither am I in a rush to do so.

My section where I explain why Draco is my favorite character and why he should be valued more than he is.
NOW AN EBOOK–Visit the Merch page to download!
Unlike other villains…, Draco is a complex, sympathetic character who, though his actions are dangerous and deadly throughout the film, still manages to win over the audience's heart by the end of the film. His villainy is not by choice, but rather, it is thrust upon him.
DM: Draco plays a major part in this film – does he have his own theme as well?
NH: He does. It follows him throughout all his visits to the room of requirements. Definitely a Malfoy theme, yeah. It's an odd mixture of dark and sad. Well, not sad exactly. It's moving though. Here's this poor boy who has been kind of pulled into this. You don't just feel he's really evil. So the music couldn't be about his being evil. It's not about that. It's about this kid being pulled out of his depth, really.
-Half-Blood Prince composer Nicholas Hooper's words about Draco Malfoy
TF: You see a much harder and much more violent side, his hate is much stronger. But there's also an immensely vulnerable side to him too. Hopefully you empathize with him by the end, a little bit.
