It happens to all of us. An innocent lunch with a friend turns into panic. Whether it was an unnoticed condiment, or a cross contaminating bread crumb, we all accidentally ingest Gluten. I for one know that I could be more careful, and strict with where I allow myself to eat. Life is tough at times and I like to do my best to keep myself feeling like everyone else.
When I do make a mistake, here is my top 5 tips for dealing with being Glutened.
1) Fluids!
I start with a lot of water. The hope here is to wash out the bad and get your system back on track. My other go to fluid is Kombucha. This fermented tea contains live bacteria to help restore your own that may be damaged from Gluten ingestion. My favorite brands are GT's and Townshend's. I am addicted to Kombucha, so a little extra in times of need are no problem. You can even make it at home!
2) DGL (Deglycyrrhizinated Licorice)
Think of it as the tums of the natural health section of your supermarket. DGL comes in chewable tabs, and many take it to ease an upset stomach. For me this is a take daily supplement to aid my damaged digestive system. My favorite brand is Natural Factors.
3) Fruits and Veggies!
Gentle food is something I like to introduce slowly as I am coming back from being Glutened. Banana, Papaya, Apples, and Salad. This will give your stomach something good to chew on while you recover.
4) GI Fortify
This is something relatively new to my basket. I used to take something called Intestinal Repair Complex. Now I take this powder with a full glass of water. It contains many natural supplements to aid digestion, and a bit of fiber as well. I honestly see great results from taking this powder. My stomach becomes calm and things start to get better. If you know what I mean.
5) Aloe Vera Juice
If you can stand the taste, Aloe Vera Juice is a good liquid for the tummy. I did not put this in my liquids section because… well… I don't like drinking large quantities of it. This juice should help balance the acidity in your stomach and promote better digestion overall.
That wraps it up. What would you suggest I add to my list?

Total 1 Review(s). Write Wanda-Sykes Review
WACO, Texas -- Reminders of the worst day of Baylor coach Art Briles' life come every year like clockwork. Briles still shoulders much of the blame for the deaths of his parents, Dennis and Wanda, and his beloved aunt, Elsie "Tottie" Kittley, who was more like a grandmother to him.
"I think about them every day, every second," Briles said, while sitting in his dark office last month. It never leaves you."
At nearly every stop in his coaching career, from West Texas high schools to the University of Houston to Baylor, Briles has somehow molded perennial losers into winners. His family, close friends, former players and assistant coaches say Briles has an extraordinary ability to persuade others into believing that anything is possible, even for football programs that have never won.
"I was blown away by his ability to instill confidence in his players and the people he's around," said Texas Tech coach Kliff Kingsbury, who played quarterback for the Red Raiders when Briles was an assistant there from 2000 to 2003. If anything good came out of it, I think it's that I've learned to care and respect people differently than I would have."
Over the years, Briles rarely talked about the details of his parents' deaths, even with his three children. His wife, Jan, his high school sweetheart from their hometown of Rule, Texas, helped him cope and recover from the tragedy, but Briles seldom shared his sorrow or guilt with anyone else.
"Honestly, I've never mentioned it to anybody, other than maybe some players who have been in similar situations as I was trying to help them," Briles said. You don't like to talk about things that hurt."
The subject wasn't taboo in the Briles home; it was simply never discussed.
"He says he doesn't like talking about it," said Kendal Briles, who played for his father at Stephenville (Texas) High School and Houston and now works as Baylor's passing game coordinator and receivers coach. That was the extent of it."
Jancy Briles, Art's daughter, who works as the media relations coordinator for the Dallas Cowboys, barely remembers a time when her father spoke about her grandparents.
"Our mom would tell us today was the day they were killed or today was his dad's birthday or his mom's birthday, and that's why he was a little off or sad," Jancy Briles said. His way of handling it was moving on and honoring them."
For nearly 40 years, Briles kept his feelings and guilt about his parents' death bottled up inside. If they are that way, you're still going to make it and you're still going to be fine."
Courtesy of Triumph BooksArt Briles' parents, Dennis and Wanda, as well as his aunt Elsie Kittley, were killed in a car accident in 1976 as they drove to watch Art play in the Cotton Bowl.
After Art Briles stepped onto the Cotton Bowl field on Oct. Dennis and Wanda Briles had planned to make the 200-mile drive from Rule to Dallas to watch their son play for the Houston Cougars against SMU. Dennis, who coached Art in high school before retiring, worked as the principal of Rule High School and was the small town's mayor.
[+] EnlargeCourtesy of Triumph BooksArt Briles, right, played quarterback for his father, Dennis, at Rule High School.
Art tried to discourage his parents from coming to the Cotton Bowl because he wasn't sure how much he would play, if at all. A former standout quarterback at Rule High, where he led his team to the Texas Class B state championship game as a senior in 1973 (the Bobcats lost to Big Sandy High, which was led by future Chicago Bears coach Lovie Smith), Briles moved to receiver at Houston. It was another setback in an injury-filled college career; he broke his wrist in the final scrimmage before the 1975 season after redshirting the previous year.
When the Cougars returned to the field after coach Bill Yeoman's pregame speech, Briles looked into the stands again. But before Briles reached the door, Yeoman stopped him and pulled him into a small room, where he broke the tragic news he had learned only 30 minutes before kickoff: Briles' parents and aunt were killed in a car accident outside of Newcastle, Texas.
According to Briles' autobiography, his parents and aunt had left Rule in Dennis' beige Ford LTD about 8 a.m., but didn't make it even halfway to Dallas. Briles' girlfriend, Jan Allison, who would later become his wife, also had planned to go to the game with his parents, but she stayed in Rule for a friend's bridal shower during a weekend break from school at Texas Tech.
"If there's a shining light out of all of it, that's it," Art said. Wanda Briles was a special education teacher at the high school and was raised by her older sister, "Tottie," after their mother died during Wanda's birth. Art's aunt became more like a grandmother to him, taking him and his brother on annual camping trips to Colorado.
[+] EnlargeCourtesy of Triumph BooksAs a child, Briles went on camping trips to Colorado with his aunt "Tottie," who was killed in the accident along with Briles' parents.
"In Rule, everybody knew who the mayor was," said Texas Tech track and field coach Wes Kittley, a Rule native and one of Briles' closest friends. According to Briles' biography, he told Greeson, "Preacher, please tell me God didn't take my momma and daddy."
"No, son, God didn't do this," Greeson answered. Maybe he never will."
Greeson, who still lives in Rule, suspected that Briles was dealing with the tragedy as well as someone his age could. He didn't know that Briles felt responsibility for the accident, guilt he still lives with today.
"I do," Briles said. They were coming to see me."
As much as Briles' family and friends have tried over the years, they haven't been able to convince him that it wasn't his fault his parents and aunt died.
"I've always felt no blame for what happened," Eddie said. He still feels guilt about it and it's not going to change."
After Briles enrolled at Texas Tech, he never attended a Red Raiders football game. Art drove a forklift at a warehouse as a part-time job while finishing his bachelor's degree at Texas Tech, then took an assistant coaching job at Sundown High School after graduation. He moved to Sweetwater High School the next year and stayed there for four seasons.
[+] EnlargeTriumph BooksBriles became a hot coaching commodity at Stephenville High School, where he won four state championships before moving to the college ranks as an assistant at Texas Tech.
In 1984, Briles was named the head coach and athletic director at Hamlin High School, a Class 2A school located about 45 miles from Abilene. Briles inherited a team that had gone 12-1 the previous season and guided it to an unblemished record in his first regular season as a head coach. The Pied Pipers breezed through the first three rounds of the state playoffs before facing Panhandle High School in a state quarterfinal game in Childress. Briles realized his split-back veer offense wouldn't break Panhandle High's bigger and stronger defense, so he decided to spread out his offense when it got the ball back.
By using a shotgun snap in one-back or no-back formations, Briles figured he could counter his opponent's brute strength by getting the football to his faster skill players in open space. Hamlin High used a spread offense the next season, averaging 41.6 points and outscoring its opponents 416-26 in the regular season.
Briles' spread offense was born, along with much of the offensive philosophy he still uses today. On that cold, windy West Texas night, Briles decided his teams would play fast and score fast.
"I saw right then that we were going to go up against people that were better than us," Briles said. It was something we felt gave us an edge."
Eventually, Briles landed at Stephenville High School, a Class 4A school located about 70 miles southwest of Fort Worth. Under Briles, the Yellow Jackets, who hadn't reached the state playoffs since 1952, won Class 4A state championships in 1993 and '94 and 1998 and '99. In 1998, Stephenville High set a national high school record for total offense.
"He's a fighter," said Baylor offensive coordinator and quarterbacks coach Philip Montgomery, who also worked under Briles for six seasons at Stephenville High. "'No' is never the answer, and he's always going to find a way to make whatever he wants done work."
After Kendal Briles led the Yellow Jackets to a 16-0 record and state championship as a junior in 1999, Art wasn't sure there was much left for him to accomplish in high school football. In Lubbock, Briles was surrounded by many of college football's brightest young minds: California coach Sonny Dykes and West Virginia coach Dana Holgorsen were among those on Leach's staff. One of the primary reasons Leach hired Briles was that he was well liked by high school coaches around the state.
[+] EnlargeJames D. Briles was so confident Welker could play at Texas Tech that he dubbed him "The Natural." He is a five-time Pro Bowler in the NFL.
Even though Briles wasn't coaching quarterbacks, Kingsbury still found himself lured to Briles' office nearly every morning for breakfast. They'd sit in his office for about a half-hour, discussing his philosophy for offense and for life.
"He's a guy that I've actually patterned myself after with his ability to relate to his players and motivate them," Kingsbury said.
Nick Florence, who was Baylor's starting quarterback in 2012, said Briles is also adept at figuring out what buttons to push to motivate his players. As Florence was preparing to replace 2011 Heisman Trophy winner Robert Griffin III, Briles unexpectedly called him into his office before the season opener.
"I think you should grow a beard," Briles told him.
Florence didn't know what to think. It doesn't matter how you look."
Over the years, Briles learned to look deeper than the surface, to identify potential and talent where perhaps no one else saw it. " Big 12 blog Oklahoma blog »
On the recommendation of his former coach, Yeoman, Briles became the first former Houston player hired to coach his alma mater. The Cougars went 10-4 and won a Conference USA title in 2006 behind quarterback Kevin Kolb, leading the league in total offense with 446.1 yards per game.
After the 2006 season, Briles interviewed with Iowa State, but the Cyclones hired then-Texas defensive coordinator Gene Chizik. Iowa State wasn't the most attractive job in the country, but it was a chance for Briles to coach in the Big 12. When the Baylor job opened the next year, Briles eagerly threw his name into the hat.
"I didn't view it maybe the way many other people did," Briles said. I knew Texas well enough to know that Baylor is centrally located and you can go two-and-a-half hours in every direction and recruit every high school in the state. The Bears hadn't played in a bowl game in 13 consecutive seasons and hadn't had a winning season since 1995. In the Bears' first dozen seasons in the Big 12, they lost conference games by an average margin of 24 points and won more than two league games in a season only once, going 3-5 in 2006.
"Nobody wanted the Stephenville High job," Briles said. You have to go into it believing that you'll turn it around."
[+] EnlargeJoe Faraoni/ESPN ImagesThe Bears enjoyed a dream season in 2011, culminating in the school's first Heisman Trophy winner, Robert Griffin III.
Briles didn't exactly turn around the Bears quickly. After Briles left Houston, he persuaded Griffin to switch his commitment to the Bears. Griffin, from Copperas Cove, had previously committed to play for Briles at Houston. He came back in 2010 and led the Bears to a 7-6 record and their first bowl game in 16 years behind an offense that shattered 22 school records.
As a junior in 2011, Griffin became the first Baylor player to win the Heisman Trophy, leading the Bears to a 10-3 record, including their first-ever victory over Oklahoma.
"It's what we dreamed of," Griffin said. At a Nike coaching clinic last year, Briles said, "People do not pay money to come to a game and watch a slowdown offense. They will miss something if they leave the game."
This season, Briles has led Baylor to unprecedented heights -- the Bears are 7-0 and ranked No. They've scored 70 points in four games and might have scored many more if Briles hadn't pulled his starters in the second half of blowouts.
"We want to play as fast as possible," quarterback Bryce Petty said. Art Briles has taken us to the mountaintop again. That's where people want to be, looking out."
Make no mistake: Briles has been to the bottom of the valley, and it's not a place he wants to go again.

If I could only (be less fine)
[or possibly: If only I could be less blind] (coutesy David Gansz, [sic])
If only I knew what to find,
Everywhere and all of the time--
It's bending my mind.Confusion's prince is at my door.
The crown I wear's the one he wore
He's here to bring me down some more
And bend my mind.The friendly stranger called my name
He only wants me for his game
But it don't matter, just the same
I'll bend his mind.I've waved my flags into the sun
I've fought my wars, and now they're won
And I don't need nobody's gun
I bent their mind.[Repeat first verse]
Recorded on
First verified performance: January 7, 1966, at The Matrix, in San Francisco. "Mindbender" followed "Sick and Tired," and preceded "On the Road Again." The only other known performance was on February 23, 1966, at an unknown location.

Posted: July 8, 2012 Filed under: Uncategorized 14 Comments »I found this wonderful little arrangement at the Beaconsfield Yacht Club. I went there with the intention of painting the boats but when I saw this I changed my mind. How could I resist those three pails in primary colours?
Today is the third and final day of paper comparisons. This was painted on a block of Fabriano Watercolour Studio and I was quite disappointed with this paper. I'm not satisfied with the texture of the paper itself (look at the top left corner of the painting to see what I mean) and it didn't carry a wash well at all. It would probably be fine for a quick sketch but not for something with more subtle watercolour effects and washes. So this will not be in my bag to Santo Domingo this week. It was fine for small flat areas like in the pails but I found that when I tried to apply a large wash the edges dried too quickly. It could be because this paper has only 20% cotton content and I am used to paper made with 100% cotton.

You find beauty and interest in everything Shari, and express it with such sensitivity
Thank you for your info on papers. -
Enjoyed your experiment with the various papers. Thanks for that. Could you tell me what colours you use to create the dark greens in the trees on the left?
Very generous of you to share your experiments with the papers and love all those sketches,
Have a great trip !
Elaine -
You are right with the Fabriano Studio paper. I have a block of this paper and I don't use it for the same reasons as yours. Colors are always dull on this paper. Thank you for the daily sketches, it is very motivating to do the same!

Kanye West's Extravagant Gift To Jay-Z For Father's Day
Last week on fathers day Kanye west was in a very giving mood. What could he possibly give Jay-z having almost 400 million dollars less than the hip hop mogul? Kanye west purchased a 34,ooo dollar Lions & Sons' Divora Skull. What it is? I have no clue probably some more "illuminati" stuff, but who cares?! Its the thought that matters most about the gift. Kanye was worried about mailing this thousand dollar item due to its value and decided to mail it himself. He hopped on a PJ early sunday morning to hand delivery it to Ivy's Dad.

Maine AG upholds deadly force in Portland shooting | News
Title (Max 100 Characters)
PORTLAND, Maine (AP) - The Maine attorney general's office says two law enforcement officers met the legal threshold for using deadly force during a shootout on a Portland sidewalk.
Investigators said Friday that U.S. Deputy Marshal Michael Tenuta and Special U.S. Deputy Marshal John Gill, part of a violent offender task force, each fired four times after Arien L'Italien of Biddeford fired at them as they attempted to arrest him on Jan. 27 in Portland.
L'Italien, who was shot in the leg, is in federal prison after pleading guilty to charges including assaulting a federal officer and being a felon in possession of a gun.
Following the shootout, L'Italien made the news again when he managed to sneak out of his jail cell to have a tryst with a female inmate.

The National Library has a large collection of romance novels published in Australia, most notably by Mills and Boon. Since the 1990s this literary genre has been recognized by academia for its cultural significance with a number of books and scholarly articles written on this subject.
Legal Deposit legislation gives the Library responsibility for collecting one copy of each book published in Australia. With twenty nine Mills and Boon titles issued each month, new books are regularly deposited by the publisher and these are accessible to all Australians. Favourite titles among staff include Amnesiac ex, unforgettable vows and The librarian's secret wish.
Mills and Boon has a long standing Australian connection. Joyce Dingwell was the publisher's first Australian author, with Australian hospital issued in 1955. Some of her other Australian themed works are The girl at Snowy River and Boomerang girl. Today, nearly forty Australian authors are published featuring Australian settings in some of their works. An author list is published on the Romance Writers of Australia website, which has been preserved in the PANDORA web archive.
Mills and Boon have joined the digital era and started publishing e-books. With the move to electronic publishing, the Library continues working towards collecting this genre in digital formats into the future.

Too often companies get wrapped up in only competing on the same items as their competitors. They want a website that is similar but better, products with the same features done better, etc.
In order to stand out amongst a sea of similarity, try your hand at writing out everything that they actually do, then spend a little more time thinking of the exact opposite of them.
Do they use a lot of black in their imaging? Use white in yours. Do they sponsor motocross events? Sponsor a snowboarding event. Are they all about the numbers? Be all about the people.
Not only will you get noticed for being you, but you'll appear in front of a whole new set of eyes.
And we've got a lot more marketing ideas where that came from!

It was 11:48am local time 71 years ago people in Clarksville Tennessee were just getting getting out of church, and were looking forward to Sunday lunch; when the Empire of Japan launched their sneak attack on the naval base at Pearl Harbor in Hawaii.
The time was 7:48am in Hawaii on Sunday December 7th 1941, and the sailors of the U.S. Fleet were conducting their Sunday morning worship services when Japanese aircraft attacked. The attack consisted of two waves of 354 aircraft which took off from six Japanese aircraft carriers, the Akagi, Kaga, Sōryū, Hiryū, Shōkaku, and Zuikak.

68 years ago today our nation suffered an attack that then President Franklin D. Roosevelt referred to as "A date which will live in infamy". The attack propelled a reticent America into the Second World War, a conflict that started two years prior and would continue for another four years. The attack was aimed at preventing the United States from using its Naval forces to interfere with the Imperial ambitions of the Japanese Military.

The Japanese launched a total of 354 aircraft from six aircraft carriers, in two distinct waves. The first warning of the attack was sent out via radio to U.S Forces at 7:58 AM Hawaiian Time on Sunday December 7th 1941 as the U.S. Fleet conducted their Sunday morning worship services
The attack sank four battleships and damaged another four. It also sank or damaged three cruisers, three destroyers, and one minelayer. A total of 188 U.S. aircraft were destroyed, most of them on the ground. The human toll was staggering with 2,402 killed, and 1,282 wounded. A total of 16 Medals of Honor, 51 Navy Crosses, 53 Silver Crosses, four Navy and Marine Corps Medals, one Distinguished Flying Cross, four Distinguished Service Crosses, one Distinguished Service Medal, and three Bronze Stars were awarded to the soldiers, sailors, and airmen who responded to the attack. «Read the rest of this article»

Mysterious mirrored sunglasses
For the ultimate Hollywood look of mystery and secrecy, mirrored sunglasses are a must. Behind these reflective lenses your eyes are completely obscured from outside glances, along with any secrets that they might betray. These sunglasses include a special reflective coating on the lens which give them the mirror effect from the outside, whilst giving the wearer's vision a slightly brown tint. This coating decreases the amount of light reaching your eye by 10–60% more than normal lenses, which makes them especially suited for sandy conditions, water, snow, and higher altitudes as well as being a major fashion statement.
Originally popular with the American cops due to the one-way vision, the fashion brand Police have used their name to make these mirrored sunglasses, in imitation of the police officers original Aviators. The teardrop shaped lenses are mirrored with a beautiful deep blue, adding further to the mystery and toning perfectly with the slim gunmetal frames.
For a sportier look, why not try these Oakley Flak Jacket which are not only fashionable but practical. Oakley build quality and technology into every pair of their sunglasses, so that as well as looking stunning, they fit beautifully.
For a casual sport look, these Carrera Naska hit the nail on the head. The angular lenses are a modern twist on the classic Aviator look and carry all the hallmarks of Carrera, such as the logo on the nose bridge and stripe across the temple and arms.
But if you're trying to achieve that Hollywood mystery, you should take inspiration from legends past and sport this season's hottest look, cat eyes sunglasses but with mirrored lenses like these Ray Ban RB454. These mirrored sunglasses simply scream feminine glamour and are the perfect girly choice.

Jonathan Zimmerman, a professor of history and education at New York University, is the author of "Small Wonder: The Little Red Schoolhouse in History and Memory."
I'm an Ivy League graduate and a crazed basketball fan. That gives me two very good reasons to celebrate the meteoric rise of Jeremy Lin, the Harvard-educated point guard who has brought the New York Knicks back to life.
But I'm also a university professor. So I'm troubled by the much-heard refrain that Lin — whose parents are Taiwanese immigrants — has "overcome the Asian stereotype." In the popular mind, this story goes, Asian Americans are quiet, studious and really good at math. By scoring 20 or more points in each of his first six NBA starts, including 38 against Kobe Bryant and the Los Angeles Lakers, Lin supposedly dealt a decisive blow against an insidious ethnic caricature.

Dr. Oswald A Roels, former director of The Univers ity of Texas at Austin Marine Science Institutte in Port Aransas, died on Monday, May 23, 2011, in Charlotte, NC. He was 89.
Oswald was born in Temse, Belgium, on Sept. 16, 1921, to Ghisleen and Elvire (Heirwegh) Roels.
He earned his PhD in organic chemistry in 1944 from the University of Louvain. He was a member of a Belgian Army Unit disbanded after most of its members were executed in the early days of the German Invasion in 1940.
Oswald devoted his life to the study of the effects of malnutrition on the human body and on the development of practical ways of eradicating hunger and its effects on its victims by developing low-cost ways of providing protein and other vitamins and nutrients in an environmentally sustainable fashion with minimal impact on the environment.
He worked at the National Institute for Agricultural Research in the former Belgian Congo (INEAC) from 1945- 1949. From 1949 until 1953 he worked in the chemical industry in London (ICI) and Flanders, Belgium. While serving as a leader of a Boy Scout troop in Londo,n he met a fellow Scoutmaster, Dorothy Broadhurst, M.D., an expert in the field of tropical medicine. After their marriage in 1950 and the birth of their daughter, Ann, they returned to the Congo as research partners working at the Institute for Scientific Research in Central Africa (IRSAC) from 1953-1960. During this time Roels discovered that peanut oil could enhance the absorption of vitamin A, which was needed to prevent a type of blindness common in the indigenous population of Africa, and many other countries at that time. It was in the Congo that Roels discovered that mariculture could be used to provide locally generated cheap sources of protein to help alleviate the Kwashiorkor, then rampant in the region.
Roels immigrated to the United States to become a professor of biochemistry at Columbia University. After five years he began working at the Lamont-Doherty Earth Observatory there, where his research was focused on his "artificial upwelling" project in St. Croix, U.S. Virgin Islands. He also did extensive research on the environmental effects of Deep Sea Mining. During this time Roels served as a professor of marine studies at the City College of New York. He also served as adjunct professor at the Rockefeller University in New York City from 1969-1980 and as a visiting research professor at Laval University in Quebec City, Canada.
In 1976, Roels became director of the University of Texas Marine Science Institute in Port Aransas. The research he pursued now is used to increase yields of low-cost sustainably-produced protein to feed people worldwide.
In 1980 he founded the mariculture company, Maritek, raising shrimp and redfish on Long Island, Bahamas. He served as the president and chairman of the board until his retirement in 1993.
Roels was awarded fellowships at The University of Brussels, Liverpool University, Vanderbilt University, with the WHO, and at the Sorbonne. From 1961-1968 he was associate editor of Nutrition Reviews.
He is survived by his wife of 61 years, Dorothy; daughter Ann (Carmen) Talarico; grandchildren Leslie Talarico and Matthew Talarico. He is also survived by his sister Lydia Bels of Temse, Belgium, and numerous nieces and nephews in Holland and Belgium. His sisters Marie Jose Weenen and Solange Ringoet preceded him in death.
Memorial contributions may be directed to the Leopold Schepp Foundation, 551 Fifth Ave., Suite 3000, New York, New York 10176.

« The White House Easter Egg Roll and the Republican War on Women |
| Far East on edge as NoKo's ready rocket launch »
Jeremiah Wright: Unhinged, unpluggedPresident Obama has said of his former pastor that Wright's extreme commentaries "do not reflect" his values. Yes, but does he agree with any of the Reverend's accusations? There's a lot more along those lines, including accusing Thomas Jefferson of being a "pedophile," and saying that "white supremecy" was driving world policy. Not that there's a ghost of a chance that Obama will comment on these remarks. But maybe it will be up to his biographer to explain the hold this ranting lunatic had on a president of the United States' mind for more than 20 years. |

it will be more rough in the bay than in the river on most days...just pick a day when its calm to go windmill point
Me and a buddy and our kids (11 & 8) went out on the Rapp the other day to do a little bottom fishing. The bite was slow overall but at there were times that they were reeling them in as fast as we could get them off the hook. We brought home a few for supper that were in the 12"-14" range. It was a great day. The kids are already talking about the next time.
Here's a question for the guys that fish Rapp/bay area, I fish the Urbanna Creek-Rte 3 bridge area, but I would like to fish the Windmill pt area. Is the water much rougher out there than up the river where I fish? I carry precious cargo, as I mentioned above, and I can't take any chances.
And by the way, 19' Trophy CC.
Thanks and great fishing to all.
it will be more rough in the bay than in the river on most days...just pick a day when its calm to go windmill point
The water can turn on dime whether you are boating on the Rapp or on the bay. It is a good idea to know what the predicted forecast is for that particular day. Sometimes a half trip can be squeezed in before the winds start to pick up. I frequent the website below, along with the normal NOAA area forecast. I like the hour by hour.
Hope this helps.
Backlash, there is plenty of good fishing to be done between Urbanna and the White Stone Bridge. No need for you to go to Windmill Point. Just my two cents...
19 ft and competent captain should have no problem around windmill. I run all over in a 19 ft. grady and places I should not go in a 17 ft. carolina skiff.
I have fished the Windmill PT bar very productively with my young kids over the last few years. During the Spring and early Summer, there are some nice croaker on the southern slope of the bar. During the summer, you can troll for some Spanish and Blues on the north side...and during the fall, the stripers are right on top. The waves ARE typically higher at the mouth of the Rap than further upstream, so you just have to pick your days more carefully. When the waves were above 2 feet, I would just move upriver a bit and stay to the leeward bank of the river.

Taliban, the SequelPosted on Apr 8, 2009Maybe it was the sex that caught our attention. Sex has a way of doing that. The lead of the story, after all, was that any Shiite woman in Afghanistan would be required by law "to fulfill the sexual desires of her husband." Or maybe it wasn't the sex. Maybe it was the report that under this religious law, Shiite women could leave their homes alone only for "legitimate purposes." Either way, the story ricocheted around the world as if it were a trailer for a horror movie: "Taliban, the Sequel." This time our man in Kabul, President Hamid Karzai, signed a Personal Status Law that enshrined the lowest personal status on women from the Shiite minority that makes up 10 percent of the Afghan population. He bargained women's lives like a chit in the struggle for political power, wooing the religious right in the run-up to the summer election. The international reaction was swift and powerful. The headlines read "Marital Rape" and "Women Sex Slaves to Husbands!" Human rights activists protested. President Obama declared the law to be "abhorrent." Advertisement Before 9/11, the world had barely squinted at women covered like blue mushrooms under burqas, living under the Taliban's house arrest. They had no public face, no public voice. They couldn't work. They couldn't go to school. They were beaten for an exposed ankle and killed for a supposed violation. They were even forbidden to laugh out loud. Some saw this as the continuation of an ancient repressive culture, but the truth was far more chilling. Afghan women had slowly gained rights through the 20th century. They helped write their country's 1964 constitution. They served in parliament and went to universities. They were 40 percent of the doctors and 70 percent of the teachers. Then the Taliban turned their homeland into a patriarchal jail. After we invaded the country that had given safe haven to al-Qaida, even President Bush repeatedly described the emancipation of women as one thing that made the war worthwhile. In his 2002 State of the Union speech, he declared: "Today women are free and are part of Afghanistan's new government." Mission accomplished? Indeed, women in Kabul and elsewhere threw off their burqas and girls went to school. The new Afghan constitution enshrined equality, and things were far better. But gradually, American attention wandered and the Taliban and warlords began to return. Taliban, the Sequel? In 2007, 236 schools teaching girls were burned down. In 2008, there were attacks on 256 schools that left 58 dead. Teachers have been killed in front of students and schoolgirls attacked with acid. Honor killings are up, burqas are back in many places. A 75-year-old woman was nailed to a tree and killed, and the daughter of a female member of parliament was legally taken away by a husband after he married a second wife. The list goes on while a weakened Karzai placates the warlords, out of the spotlight. "The women are the canaries in the coal mine," says Ellie Smeal of the Feminist Majority, which has focused on Afghan women when they were in fashion and when they were out. "There is a campaign of terror going on by these reactionary Taliban-like forces," she says, adding, "Now suddenly it's gotten people's attention." Sometimes it takes a religious law codifying marital rape to jolt us to attention. Sometimes, for that matter, it takes a cell-phone video of a 17-year-old woman in Pakistan being flogged to get us to see what happens when a government tries to trade part of a province for peace. But many everyday dramas remain invisible? This time the world's outrage has led Karzai to promise to "review" the law. But if that Shiite minority is saved from having its repression codified into law, will we again ignore the struggle for all Afghan women? "Human rights are not a Western concept," says Sima Samar, chair of the Afghan human rights commission, "but universal, and necessary for all human beings." Somewhere in southern Afghanistan another little girl is being "protected" from school, another woman shrouded in the anonymity of a burqa is begging permission to walk out her front door. This is happening on our watch. Eyes wide open, please.

By Drew, April 11, 2009 at 11:09 am Link to this comment Yes, Mrs. Goodman, I agree that this is terrible about how the women are treated in Afganistan! It is rather disgusting, but so are the Arabs that promote this hideous religion!... But you know, it's really none of our business! And who wants to pay for that crap!? If it's their lousy religion, let them have all of it! What do we care??? It's not us, or our country! However, our government is letting those creeps in our country!Do we know how many mosques here are filled with arms and bombs?....And our leaders for the sake of "PC" let them in our borders!???? This is not stupid , this is a plan! No congressman is that stupid!....but they are hoping we are! Isn't that a laugh!?? And you are worried about these women in Afganistan who are like the palestinian women who strap bombs on themselves and kill themselves and a bunch of isreali's? Or at least it's the same basic God forsaken lousy religion!??? I understand that it is undeserving moslem women,but hey, they live it, they believe in it,sooo, screw it! Why should we care? Yours truely!

Free manure spreader calibrations available from the SWCD
Fri, Oct 15th, 2010
Posted in Agriculture
Posted in Agriculture
The Fillmore Soil and Water Conservation District (SWCD) reminds livestock producers that the SWCD offers free manure spreader calibrations. Fall is a good time to calibrate spreaders when manure is being applied to fields after harvest. The calibration information, in combination with manure test results, is a valuable tool for determining the application rates of the nutrients in the manure. Manure test kits can be picked up at the SWCD office. There is an analysis fee paid to the lab by the producer. Another free service offered by the SWCD is a mini manure management plan that uses the spreader calibration and manure analysis numbers to determine optimum nutrient application rates. The plan provides a short and easy guide to maximizing the nutrients in the manure. For more information about any of these services, contact the Fillmore SWCD office at 507-765-3878, ext. 3, or email email@example.com.

MovetheFood is a part of the Hunger Free Communities Network, a nation-wide platform for coalitions, campaigns and collaborations committed to ending hunger in their localities to learn from each other and share their knowledge and experience with other hunger free organizers.
Hunger Free Community (HFC) initiatives are broad-based, multi-sector coalitions that are committed to ending hunger in their communities. Hunger free initiatives across the country range in scale, from small towns and counties to major metropolitan areas and states. Some are led by governors, mayors, or members of Congress, while others are entirely volunteer driven. At their core, these initiatives are formed around the belief that to end hunger at the community level, a broad range of community stakeholders must unite behind a common vision and strategy.

1. It's more transparent, and easier to understand.
2. It is intended to quickly offer you the lowest price.
3. Eliminating most of the negotiating allows focus on your true needs.
4. Reduced Asking Price s are determined by the factory and is the same at all locations.
5. It eliminates the markup and pricing "games" inherent in the RV industry.
Two prices will be posted inside each 2011 trailer.
1. One price will show the "Industry Standard" MSRP. This would be the MSRP price of this particular unit using the average markup percentage used by competitors. We don't believe these artificially high MSRPs serve any benefit to the customer, and we won't support our dealers use of them. Showing this price does give evidence of how much NuWa prices have been reduced, and it reflects the significantly more expensive materials and labor costs necessary to build a truly more reliable trailer.
2. The second price is the "Low Haggle / Near Wholesale Price". We think experienced RV customers are ready for this more transparent method of pricing, which is controlled by the factory for the customer's benefit. We've changed from "no haggle" to "low haggle" to allow customers "to win" the negotiating process. This is the price range you will pay for a given trailer. It's low, and trades are taken at wholesale ACV (actual cash value). The best way to understand this approach is to recognize that you are buying the new unit for cash, and that the trade is really a sale of your used unit to the dealer at a price he willingly will pay to resell it. Your used unit is worth what it is worth, whether you sell it or the factory or the dealer sells it. If the factory or dealer sells it, they have to recover their expenses and a modest profit, and if they can't they would prefer you sell it yourself. But think about the simplicity of this approach. You are always buying for the lowest cash price available. And then you decide whether you want to trade your old trailer, or sell it yourself. That totally separates and simplifies the two transactions and assures you are getting the most fair deal available, which NuWa feels will build a trusting relationship between buyer and seller.
How about a realistic example of the three prices:
OK, assume you are looking at a 2011 HitchHiker model with Low Haggle/Near Wholesale Price of $65,000, which includes $6,960 of options. Let's assume that your trade is truly worth $33,000 retail, whether you sell it or trade it. NuWa's pricing method in this example might give you NADA wholesale value of $27,250 less 10%, but the excellent trailer condition and equipment brings the value back up to wholesale book. Allowing $27,250 against the Low Haggle price of $65,000 making your difference $37,750. Today's used RV market actual wholesale and retail values are below the NADA book valuations, so don't be insulted by trade allowances lower than wholesale. But the important issue here is to focus on the "difference", not the trade allowance.
If this same (or more importantly a competitive) unit were priced using the Industry Practice MSRP, the listed price at a dealership would typically be $84,700. When they trade with you, are they going to willingly give you the "fluff" built into their "inflated" MSRP, or are they instead going to try to confuse you by offering more for your trade? If you were offered $42,000 for your trade, in this scenario would that be a better deal? $84,700 less $42,000 is $42,700 difference versus NuWa's $37,750 difference. How can you trust you are getting a fair deal? You can't, thus the reason customers don't trust most RV salespersons.
Industry Practice MSRP Trade Method | NuWa "No Haggle/Near Wholesale" Price Method | |||
MSRP Price of HitchHiker (if priced at typical Industry Practice MSRP) |
$84,700 | Unit with Options at NuWa's No Haggle/Near Wholesale Price |
$65,000 | |
Retail Trade Allowance | $42,000 | Wholesale Trade Allowance | $27,250 | |
Purchase Cost Difference | $42,700 | |||
Your Final "after battle" price | $40,200 | Purchase Cost Difference | $37,750 |

"A new round of the arms race is developing in the world," said Putin, who chaired a meeting of the consultative State Council on Friday to outline the concept of strategic long-term development of the country up to the year 2020.
"Unfortunately, this does not depend on us. It is not our country that started it," said the president, who will step down after eight years in office following the March 2 presidential elections.
Putin said the developed countries, relying on their technological superiority, are channeling billions of dollars into the designing of the next generation of defensive and offensive weapon systems.
"Their allocations in the defense sector exceeded Russia`s allocations dozens of times," he said.
He said that growing military-political threats are forcing Russia to take adequate measures to safeguard its national security, adding that Russia is to respond to these challenges by developing more high-tech weapons.

Saddest story ever about an earless bunny accidentally stomped to death. Today
This is so sad and terrible you may not want to read about it at all. Especially not if you're fond of earless bunnies and tend to feel sympathy for camera operators who clearly didn't do it on purpose. As, a matter of fact, unless you're an awowed bunny-hater, don't read this.
MSNBC has this: "It can't be an easy job, being a cameraman. You've got to haul around and operate heavy equipment, get the shot you need all while staying out of the way of the action, and - who knew? - refrain from crushing to death the subject of that day's story. According to Der Spiegel, a zoo in eastern Germany invited a television camera crew to film a rare earless bunny they had named Til. It was the only earless one in a litter of six. The zoo wanted to use the film footage in a news conference planned for the next day, zoo director Uwe Dempewolf told the newsmagazine, because "rabbits without ears are pretty rare." Sadly, that news conference was never held, because "during the filming, the cameraman took a step back and trod on the bunny," Dempewolf told the newsmagazine. "He was immediately dead, he didn't suffer. It was a direct hit." The cameraman told the German newspaper Bild that the bunny was buried in hay, so he didn't realize he was stepping on it until it was too late. Needless to say, the other bunnies are fine. Der Spiegel reports that Til the bunny has been frozen and now may be stuffed."

My man RedSquirrel is still working the Sony homebrew scene. Two days ago, he pushed out another unofficial update to the Showtime media streaming app for jailbroken PS3s. If you like streaming as much as I do, this is the app to pick up. As with each release, RedSquirrel has added some features, removed and fixed others in order to provide the best experience possible.
In case you missed it, development of the unofficial builds will cease once an automatic build system is put into place for the official Showtime releases. On top of that, the official developer(s) are on vacation so don't expect to see any new builds until then.
You can pick up RedSquirrel's Showtime builds below.

Last year, a startup called Planetary Resources backed by a bunch of billionaires announced plans to send robotic ships into outer space to mine asteroids.
This week, a startup called Deep Space Industries that is apparently not backed by any billionaires announced plans to send robotic ships into outer space to mine asteroids, refuel spacecraft and satellites, and 3-D print solar power stations to beam clean energy back to Earth.
Next year, look for a startup backed by no one at all to announce plans to cure all of humanity's problems instantaneously and forever via robotic solar-powered 3-D printed outer-space panacea-bots.
Just kidding. But the ambition behind Deep Space Industries' plans is striking for a company that admits it is still looking for more investors. The basic contours of its proposition:
By 2015, build a fleet of small, CubeSat-based "FireFly" spacecraft and send them on one-way, six-month-long trips to inspect small asteroids up-close.
By 2016, begin launching slightly larger "DragonFly" craft on two- to four-year trips to capture and bring back asteroid samples.
Over time, find ways to extract precious metals and fuels from the asteroids and use them to set up the interplanetary equivalent of filling stations and foundries, refueling communications satellites and serving NASA, SpaceX, and anyone else who might happen by.
Oh yeah, and eventually build those awesome-sounding solar power stations.
The shorter version: There's gold in them thar asteroids, and Deep Space Industries wants to be in on the rush. Intrigued but skeptical, I spoke with DSI's chief executive, David Gump, whose previous claims to fame include co-founding the space-tech company Astrobotic Technology and producing for RadioShack the first TV commercial to be shot aboard the International Space Station.
Slate: Where is the money coming from? Do you have any major investors on board?
David Gump: We have some investors, and one of the reasons we held the press conference was to let additional investors know about the opportunity. Going forward we'll have three sources of funds: investors, customer progress payments from government customers, and payments from commercial customers.
Slate: What will you do with the asteroid samples once you've obtained them?
Gump: The intent is to bring several of the smaller ones back to Earth orbit where we can process them at our leisure. We have to know whether they're solid or a loose rubble pile. That's also important if you're thinking in terms of planetary defense - you want to know what you're shooting at.
Slate: How do your plans to mine asteroids differ from those of Planetary Resources? Or do you figure there's enough room for two companies doing similar things?
Gump: It's a very big solar system. Two companies are not going to be able to go after all the opportunities out there. As for specific plans, you'd have to ask (Planetary Resources), but they seemed to be focusing on long-distance telescope operation and discovery. We are going to go straightaway to missions that fly past [small asteroids] and missions that in the next year actually bring back samples. We're also putting a great deal of emphasis on, "How do you turn raw asteroids into something that people want to buy?"

We really enjoyed our dinner and the atmosphere at Europeo in Santiago. The food presentation was really nice and the service excellent.

Excellent Restaurant 5 stars. Excellent service. Great deserts. It is like dinning in Zurich, but with Chilean seafood and Chileans wine. Quiet atmosphere. Not fun but elegant.
Best goat cheese lasagna I've ever had! And the dessert was a kind of apple pie with murta (a chilean berry) which was to die for! I only had lunch but I would like to go back to have dinner there as I loved it.
Expensive. Must have a reservation. I have been there about 5 times, lunch time. Young chef has been quite celebrated.
The food is spectacular, I am a fan of oriental food so I wanted to go to a ethnic placefor my birthday, but this was the perfect choice, excellent food, very pricy tough.

20 Creepy Things Found Inside Someone
You'd be amazed what some people have in their bodies. These bizarre but true stories cover everything from foreign bodies to biological to specimens to more than one piece of cutlery. Some are funny, while others are a bit grosser, but it's a good idea to make sure you're not eating as you dig into the list of creepy things found inside people's bodies:
1. A plastic piece of fork was found in a man's lung in North Carolina. The chunk of cheap cutlery still bore the Wendy's logo from the trip the man had taken to the fast food establishment and during which he'd apparently eaten so quickly that he didn't feel (or ignored?) the feeling of a shard of plastic sliding down his gullet. Two years of lung pain later, the fork was removed.
2. An Indian man lived his whole life with a big belly, but sudden pain atage 36 sent him rushing to the hospital, where the doctors opened him up to find a human fetus. It was the mutated body of the man's twin, which he'd absorbed before birth but which had continued to dwell in his body. It's a condition known as "fetus in fetu," which I will let you Google on your lunch break at your peril.
3. Surgical instruments have been left behind in patients on many occasions, but even so, it was a shock for one Pittsburgh man wound up with a 10-inch retractor lodged in his abdomen. Even more worrisome: When the man complained of pains, doctors told him to see a psychiatrist instead of checking their pockets for missing tools.
4. A 10-pound ball of hair was found inside an 18-year-old woman's stomach, a mass that had caused her to suffer drastic weight loss and vomiting after eating. The cause of the mass was the woman's own bad habits: She had a habit of chewing on and eating her hair, which gradually accumulated in her gut.
5. A death row inmate in Amarillo was among a group of convicts found in November 2008 to be in possession of contraband cell phones. The inmate's chosen hiding spot? His rectum. The phone was found thanks to an X-ray scan.
6. In 2008, surgeons in Bangladesh removed a tumor from a 35-year-old man's abdomen that weighed — wait for it — 95 pounds. The growth was the size of four watermelons and had been growing for at least four years, and had "huge" blood vessels attached.
7. A Japanese man checked into the hospital complaining of stomach pain, and surgeons thought they'd found a tumor in the man's abdomen. Wrong: It was a surgical towel that had been left inside the man 25 years earlier when he underwent surgery for a minor ulcer. He'd had the cloth inside his body for a quarter century.
8. A new species was discovered when a fanged leech was pulled from the nose of a young girl who was bathing in a river in Peru. Only two inches long, the leech sports a set of large teeth and caused scientists to revise their understanding of the leech family.
9. A Czech woman wound up with a foot-long medical tool in her abdomen that doctors forgot to remove after performing gynecological surgery. Unsurprisingly, she plans to sue.
10. A living worm — like, an actual, living, writhing worm — was found inside her brain. After experiencing swelling and numbness, the woman had an MRI that revealed what looked like a foreign growth on her brain stem, but it turned out to be a tapeworm. The stomach-churning experience came about when the woman at some point ate food that had been tainted with the fecal residue of someone infected with that kind of tapeworm parasite. The moral: Always know where your food comes from. Always.
11. More than 20 cobblestones were found in the stomach of a Chinese woman who, for reasons only known to her, swallowed them after having a fight with her boyfriend. Unable to pass them through her bowels (which would likely be a brutal experience), the woman was steered toward surgery.
12. A chunk of human lung was found in the stomach of a rapper who murdered his roommate and ingested part of her lung in order to promote a hardcore image for himself on behalf of his record label.
13. More than 30 years ago, a Dutch woman went to the hospital complaining of a stomachache, and that's when doctors found 78 pieces of cutlery inside her. The woman suffered from a personality disorder that caused her to ignore her food at mealtime and instead go right for the silver, though for some reason, she only at the forks and spoons, never the knives. The most obvious line of the entire story: "Doctors in Rotterdam said they had never heard of someone consuming quite so many foreign objects before." I'd hope not.
14-16. An MSNBC report found that a trio of midwestern women had suffered particularly painful episodes after physical object were left behind in their bodies after various surgeries. One woman had knee surgery but still felt pain: The doctor had left a 2-inch scalpel blade in her leg. Another woman had a breast biopsy but dealt with pain for eight more years: A new mammogram revealed that a broken needle was embedded in her breast. And a third woman was the victim of faulty construction when a metallic blood-clot filter shifted inside her, punctured a vein, and took multiple procedures to successfully remove.
17. Thirty magnets and steel balls were found inside an 8-year-old Indiana girl after she said they "looked like candy" and wolfed them down. (Even if they look like candy, did they taste like it?) The collection of metal led to holes that resembled stab wounds or gunshots in her intestines, requiring surgery.
18. A set of false teeth were found in a woman's stomach when she complained of pains. Although initially reluctant to divulge how they got there, she eventually admitted she had swallowed her boyfriend's dentures while experimenting with "a special type of passionate kiss." No idea what that would even look like, or how hard you'd have to suck to get dentures to pop off, but kudos for trying new things.
19. How's this for creepy: An Israeli woman swallowed a cockroach as well as the fork she used to try and get it out. The big flew into her mouth as she was cleaning house, and in a panic, she tried to scoop the insect out with a fork but wound up swallowing that, as well. Surgery got the fork out, but the bug had already been digested.
20. An Ethiopian man had 222 metallic objects in his stomach. Two hundred and twenty-two. The collection included nails, door keys, watch batteries, and hair pins. The cause of the weird eating was likely mental illness. Surgeons were able to remove the almost 1.7 pounds of metal from the man's abdomen.

Soil and Site Evaluation
The ability of soil to accept water or for water to travel through soil is called soil permeability.
Percolation is the movement of water through soil. A soil percolation test is designed to measure the rate of water movement in saturated soil (mimicking conditions that soil treatment systems have) so that one can decide the appropriate type and size of treatment system.
The test measures how quickly an inch of water will drop in a hole after the soil has been saturated with water, and results are given in minutes per inch. Soil that is best suited for a soil absorption system will allow water to move at a slow enough rate for treatment to occur (slower than 5 minutes per inch), yet fast enough to accept more wastewater as it is generated (faster than 60 minutes per inch).
The role of soil and importance of site evaluation in designing and installing septic and residential lagoon systems is addressed in the Extension publications linked here.
