Areas of Research Interest and Specialization
The Kansas State University Food Science program offers research opportunities in several different disciplines and product areas for students' specialization. The major areas are highlighted as follows:
- Grain Science
- Dairy Food Technology
- Food Chemistry
- Food Engineering
- Food Microbiology and Safety
- Meat Science
- Product Development
- Sensory Analysis
Grain Science
Graduate students have the opportunity to focus research on cereal products with faculty in the Department of Grain Science and Industry. The students may be involved with projects that are designed to answer practical industry-related problems as well as study basic chemical and molecular interactions in cereal-based products. These projects are frequently funded by companies that have high expectations for immediate application of the research, allowing students to witness each stage of research and development with practical goals in mind. The department manages projects in the areas of milling science, primarily focusing upon the engineering aspects of processing, baking science, nutrition, extrusion technology and feed science. Learn more about the grain science facilities.
Dairy Food Technology
A complete dairy processing facility is available for teaching and research within the Department of Animal Sciences and Industry. The dairy research laboratories are equipped with modern analytical instruments for chemical and physical analysis. The potential research may include product/process development, new process technology, enzyme modification, flavor technology, and quality assurance. Learn more about dairy food technology facilities.
Food Chemistry
Students have opportunities to study in several areas such as food chemistry, food flavor, chemical residue and toxicology as part of the Department of Animal Sciences and Industry. One major area of study encompasses the evaluation and toxicity of Fusarium mycotoxins. This is a major area of concern throughout the world because we know so little about these natural food contaminants. Other potential areas of research include the production of toxic compounds, such as heterocyclic amines during processing/cooking of muscle foods. Students in flavor chemistry have opportunity to work on the development of methods for isolation, separation, and identification of flavor compounds using advanced instruments and techniques.
Physical Chemistry and Rheology research is directed towards the explanation of the molecular level interactions and functionality of food systems through an understanding of their physical and chemical properties. Some of the principal methods employed are rheological approaches using characteristics of steady shear, dynamic testing, and transient behavior of food systems measured by the Bohlin VOR and Vialastic 3 Viscoelasticity Analyzer. Learn more about food chemistry facilities.
Food Engineering
Two major areas of food engineering research are related to the application of process engineering to cereals and meats. Other areas of research include dairy, environmental issues of food processing plants, and byproduct utilization. Classes in food engineering are offered through the Department of Chemical Engineering and Biological and Agricultural Engineering. Learn more about food engineering facilities.
Food Microbiology and Safety
K-State's food microbiology program addresses issues affecting the quality and safety of food products from the farm-to-fork. This program is a part of the Department of Animal Sciences and Industry. Pre-harvest research is defining programs at the farm level that improve the microbial status of final products. Processing technologies such as irradiation, thermal treatments, chemical washing, and Steam Pasteurization are investigated for food decontamination purposes. These developments are transferred to the food industry and their performances verified by K-State food safety researchers. In addition, K-State is internationally recognized for its development of rapid and automated microbial detection systems and training programs in this subject area. Students gain extensive practical training in concepts such as Hazard Analysis and Critical Control Point programs and risk assessment/management that prepare them for exciting careers in the industry. Learn more about food microbiology facilities.
Meat Science
The meat science program within the Department of Animal Sciences and Industry is among the world leaders. Research expertise among the faculty includes the effects of animal breeding, feeding and handling on carcass value and quality, effects of new technologies on meat safety, chemistry of meat color and methods of control, development of value-added products, and the packaging and handling systems for case-ready meat products. All include the applications of basic science to meat and meat products.
A modern USDA-inspected meat processing facility and supporting analytical labs allow for innovative basic and applied research. Research findings in recent years have had a major impact on several government regulations and methods of processing, handling, packaging, and marketing of meat and meat products. Learn more about meat science facilities.
Product Development
Have you ever wondered where all those new food products are created? Food product development is an exciting field combining food chemistry, processing, microbiology, statistical design, and food regulations. Graduate students at Kansas State University have opportunities to be involved in research projects utilizing their food science knowledge to create new food products that enhance economic development by expanding uses of food commodities and satisfying new consumer demands. Recent projects have included a variety of soy-based drinks and dips, new yogurt with pre-teen appeal, flavor enhancers for snack foods and edible packaging films. Product development courses are found in several departments. Learn more about product development facilities.
Sensory Analysis
Understanding the sensory attributes of food is the basic element needed for delivering value-added quality attributes such as odor, flavor, and texture to consumers. In the sensory analysis program, graduate students can concentrate their course work on sensory measurement of food characteristics and the effects of those attributes on food acceptance. Graduate students can conduct research on various aspects of sensory analysis in product areas that include cereals and snack foods, dairy products, meat, condiments, and beverages.
Students also have the opportunity to use the Sensory Analysis Center located in the College of Human Ecology. The center was created to provide students with opportunities to gain practical experiences and outstanding research capabilities for university researchers and the food industry. Learn more about sensory analysis facilities.

Nine By Blue is Now RKG Seattle!
You may have heard the news already but things have been busy around here so this is the first chance I've had to post about it.
When I left Google, I didn't intend to start Nine By Blue. I didn't even necessarily plan to stay in search. But the more I talked with organizations, the more I saw a need to extend the work that I had done with Google Webmaster Central and provide practical, concrete advice on how to better connect with audiences through search. My entire career has been based on one thing: when I see a problem that I can help solve, a need that I can help fill, I jump right in. That's what drives me.
So, one day, I suddenly had a company. I saw ways to help organizations more scalably, so I built best practices libraries and content strategy and technical assessment methodologies and brought people on to help me. And then another day, I could clearly see how technology could help me help others even more. Which is obviously not unlike how Google webmaster central grew. Education helps, but data that's customized for your organization really helps.
I am so proud of the work my developers have done in creating Blueprint. It's a beautiful platform for consuming all kinds of data and providing visualizations and insights that are greater than the sum of the parts. I feel as though we're only getting started on what's possible. I'm so excited about what we'll be able to build from what's already a fantastic way to understand how search engines crawl a site and the issues they're encountering and to turn Google webmaster tools data into insights and actions.
But building an enterprise software company takes a lot of resources. And by resources, of course, I mean money, but I also mean time. We live in the age of startups. Everyone has one and anyone who doesn't is encouraged to go out and get one. But having run a startup for more than five years, I can tell you that it's not as easy as all of that. There comes a point when you have to take a hard look at yourself and your company and ask yourself what's most important to you and how best do get there. Do you care most about building and running a company or about seeing your vision realized? I cared most about fulfilling my vision. Solving problems. I could have gotten there by continuing to run a company but it would have taken longer and it would have required me to continue to spend time on lots of things other than building software and helping people.
So I found a great partner with same vision as I have. George Michie and Adam Audette have been out there providing education and help on paid and organic search (respectively) for years. We have the same core values: data is just numbers without insight and excellent people to interpret it; paid and organic search programs should be built on solid, authoritative foundations, not on speculation and reverse engineering algorithms; focus on audience needs, solving people's problems, building something of real value, not on manipulating search engines.
RKG is passionate about continuing to build Blueprint and fully take advantage of the platform we've created. They're excited about incorporating our consulting methodologies into theirs and providing an even more robust offering: from full content strategy and technical assessments to ongoing tactical support. We can (and will) do amazing things.
If you're a software engineer or UX designer (especially in Seattle) who wants to work with an awesome team on interesting data problems, please be in touch! And if you're an SEO or content strategist who believes in the same core values as we do, from entry level to super senior (particularly if you want to live in Seattle, Bend, or Charlottesville), also please be in touch. We have big plans and need help to do it.
I'm so grateful to my staff for all of their hard work in building this company with me and I can't to see what they can do now that we're part of RKG.
If you're a customer of ours, thank you! We've had a wonderful time working with our customers over the years and your needs have shaped what we've built (both with our software and our consulting). We're not going away, we're getting better!

A Dyer Order The Amritsar Massacre: The Untold Story of One Fateful Day
By Nick Lloyd (I B Tauris 264pp £19.99)
Along open-topped motorcar slides its way through the bazaar, preceded by an armoured vehicle and followed by a company of Gurkhas and Baluchi soldiers, trotting along holding Lee-Enfield rifles. The car stops. Brigadier Rex Dyer, crustily played by Edward Fox, gets out and strides to a broad but enclosed space known as the Jallianwala Bagh. While his soldiers line up on either side of him, Dyer observes a large, peaceful-looking crowd to whom a Sikh orator is preaching Gandhi's doctrine of non-violent resistance. Declining to give the crowd a warning, he orders his men to open fire and to keep on firing for a cinematic eternity. He even directs the Gurkhas to aim at a group of people trying to escape over a wall.
In the long catalogue of cinema's historical distortions, Richard Attenborough's Gandhi is not in the Braveheart league of inane offenders. The depiction of the Amritsar Massacre of 1919 is roughly accurate, even though the speakers were less Gandhian and the crowd less pacific than the director made out. The problem is that it's a scene without a context. There is no indication of what had happened over the previous few days – violent riots in the Punjab, including Amritsar, where government buildings had been looted and burned and several British civilians had been murdered. There is also no reference to the actions of Dyer on the morning of the massacre, when he had toured the city proclaiming in Urdu and Punjabi that the authorities would permit no gatherings of more than four persons. Nor did the film indicate what happened afterwards: Dyer was censured by the governments of India and Great Britain and was forced to retire from the army.
Attenborough's Amritsar scene is one of the enduring representations of British India, on a par with the scene in A Passage to India when the British in their club become collectively hysterical, wanting to clear the bazaars and 'flog every native'
in sight following an obscure incident in a cave. Ever since 1919 the massacre has been for many people emblematic of the British Empire. Indian nationalists claimed it was part of a campaign to terrorise the Punjab; post-colonial historians have cited it as an example of the 'intrinsic violence of British rule' (though it was not an example but an exception); and in his novel Midnight's Children Salman Rushdie made his contribution to the mythology by arming the Gurkhas with machine guns (that made 'a noise like teeth chattering in winter') to mow down the crowd in the Jallianwala Bagh.
Nick Lloyd, a lecturer in defence studies, is determined to combat such interpretations. He is scornful of nationalist historiography and scoffs at the notion that the Amritsar Massacre, in which some 400 people were killed, was 'a premeditated act of imperial mass murder intended to strike terror into the Indian

Links wtih literary agents and top publishers population'. Yet he is also critical of those British politicians who found Dyer's actions indefensible and regarded them as 'frightful' and 'un-English', the most outrageous act of violence against a civilian population since the Indian Mutiny of 1857–8. As Secretary of State for War, Winston Churchill accused Dyer of 'frightfulness', meaning 'the inflicting of great slaughter or massacre upon a particular crowd of people, with the intention of terrorising not merely the rest of the crowd, but the whole district or country'. It was 'not the British way of doing business'.
The author claims that his book is a 'new account', a 'new history', the 'untold story of one fateful day'. Yet in most respects it is a valiant – and perhaps foolhardy – exposition of the case put forward at the time by many of the British in India and by the right wing of the Conservative Party in Britain. These were the people who believed that in 1919 the Punjab was on the verge of rebellion and that British women and children were potentially in as great a danger as they had been in 1857. For them Dyer was 'the Saviour', the man who had thwarted a conspiracy to overthrow British rule in India. Lloyd has far greater sympathy for this view than for its more logical rival – that Dyer destroyed the trust many Indians still had in Great Britain and irrevocably alienated their leaders; he certainly shook Gandhi's belief that India should become a self-governing dominion within the British Empire.
The author unveils a convincing picture of the violent and volatile situation in Amritsar in April 1919. Following the local government's unwise deportation of two 'agitators' on the morning of 10 April, large crowds gathered in the city and tried to break into the civil lines, where most of the British lived. In Amritsar, as elsewhere in the Punjab, a handful of soldiers and policemen were ultimately forced to deter them with gunfire, inflicting a small number of casualties, and Lloyd is probably right to regard this response to the 'unrest' as 'proportionate and reasonable': the city was out of control and British civilians still in the old town were being killed or beaten up.
By 13 April, however, the violence had subsided. That morning Dyer marched into the city to warn its inhabitants not to assemble; in the afternoon, on hearing that
| o c t o b e r 2 0 1 1 l i t e r a r y l i v e s a crowd was gathering in defiance of his orders, he returned with his riflemen and ordered them to disperse it. He later said that between the two visits he had had 'ample time to consider the nature of the painful duty [he] might be faced with'. Later he declared that he had wanted to create a 'widespread effect'; he was not 'merely dispersing the crowd' but 'producing a sufficient moral effect, from a military point of view, not only on those who were present but more specially throughout the Punjab'. No wonder Churchill found this 'frightful'.
Dyer's earliest explanation of his action was very different. He had opened fire, he said, because his 'force was small and to hesitate might induce attack'. According to Lloyd, he was frightened but could not admit it later; hailed as the 'saviour of the Raj', he subsequently assumed the role and pretended that the massacre had been premeditated. The author may or may not be right to argue that Dyer's first claim was the correct one and that his protagonist was guilty of an error of judgement rather than an intention to murder. But he tests our credulity as well as our goodwill by defending Dyer on the two points on which he was censured by the official inquiry: that he had not warned the crowd before firing; and that he had gone on shooting for too long – between ten and fifteen minutes. Lloyd excuses the pitiless continuation by arguing that, because the Bagh had only a small number of exits, it took a long time for the crowd to disperse. The length of the massacre was therefore not Dyer's fault, since he was unacquainted with the geography of the place and could not know about this detail; so he went on firing, killing hundreds of fleeing people who at no stage had presented any threat to his soldiers.
Lloyd extends his defence of Dyer to other incidents and attempts to mitigate the brigadier's notorious 'crawling order' (forcing Indians to crawl on their bellies along a street where a British missionary had been beaten up and left for dead) by stressing its 'insignificance': it was 'only in force along one lane for five days'. It is advocacy of this kind, which permeates the text, that ultimately undermines the credibility of the book. To order this book for £15.99, see the Literary Review Bookshop on page 29

A Tale of Two Dickens
Charles Dickens: A Life
By Claire Tomalin
(Viking 527pp £30)
Becoming Dickens: The Invention of a Novelist
By Robert Douglas-Fairhurst (Harvard University Press/Belknap Press 389pp £20)
There have been around ninety fulllength lives of Dickens. As the 2012 bicentennial approaches the discriminating purchaser will be able to choose between three current frontrunners. Michael Slater's 2009 biography, still going strong in paperback, is one. A 'radically revised' reissue of Peter Ackroyd's 1990 biography is another. And, coming up fast on the outside track, we have Claire Tomalin.
Each brings something distinctive to the task. Slater's book is the distillation of fifty years' rigorous scholarship. Ackroyd brings a novelist's privileged insight to his subject. And Tomalin? She is a biographical big-game hunter, having already bagged Austen, Hardy, Pepys, Wollstonecraft and Mansfield. The shelf of prizes she has won testifies to her ability not just to write 'lives' but to bring the authors she writes about to life.
Most nineteenth-century novelists hated the idea of too much being known about them. As Henry James put it: 'My sole wish is to frustrate as utterly as possible the post-mortem exploiter' – a species of literary vermin anatomised in The Aspern Papers. James frustrated the publishing rascals with that handiest of weapons, the safety match. In the conflagration he started in his garden many things which prurient posterity yearns to know (what was that 'obscure hurt' in the groin area?) went up in smoke. Dickens, as his personal life went haywire at the end of the 1850s, lit a similar bonfire. It was so massive that his children roasted chestnuts in the embers. All that was left for the biographers was cold ashes. No chestnuts for them. Dickens went a step further in his campaign against the postmortem exploiter. At the astonishingly premature age of thirty-seven he appointed his bosom friend, John Forster,
as his biographer. It was to Forster that he entrusted the unpublished 'autobiographical fragment' – that short sketch of his childhood which, like a plutonium pellet, has shaped every biography since.
The fragment relates two traumatic events: his father's incarceration in the Marshalsea debtors' prison; and his own 'agony of soul' at being sent for a few months to work in a boot-blacking factory by the Thames to help out with the family finances.
Why did Dickens confide these lifechangingly shameful events to Forster alone? The motive was not, one may hazard, confession but control. Both Tomalin and Robert Douglas-Fairhurst draw attention to a jubilant remark he made to his wife after reading one of his Christmas stories to a group of friends: 'If you had seen [William] Macready last night undisguisedly sobbing, and crying on the sofa as I read – you would have felt (as I did) what a thing it is to have Power.' As editor of the tuppenny newspapers Household Words and All the Year Round, Dickens customarily referred to himself as 'the conductor'. Every biographer he's ever had, however ingenious, has been subject to that posthumous Dickensian baton.
Why, then, should one buy Tomalin's book rather than (or in addition to) Slater's or Ackroyd's? A good reason is her shrewdness. Tomalin, for example, is surely right in claiming that 'Nelly' Ternan, the young woman for whom Dickens left the wife who had borne him ten children, was his mistress, in the full sense of the word. Ackroyd, by contrast, finds consummated sex between them 'almost inconceivable'. Slater – in the absence of clinching evidence – will not speculate. Tomalin's speculations, as she weighs them up, have the force of o c t o b e r 2 0 1 1 |

Trojans come up big vs. Red Devils
SPRING VALLEY – The Mendota Trojans used a dominant defensive attack, especially in the game's first half, to roll to a 63-40 victory over the Hall Red Devils Tuesday night, at Red Devil Gymnasium.
The Trojans got off to a very good start, holding the Red Devils to 3-9 shooting from the field, while tripling up on the hosts, 18-6, after eight minutes of play.
"They kind of made us look really bad," said Hall coach Mike Filippini. "That was a big, strong 3A team, and we didn't respond very well in the first half. Second half, I thought we played with a lot better effort. But you can't (very easily) make up for the first half when you get down by 22 points.

Eight men have been arrested in connection with a £1.3 million theft by a gang who took control of a bank branch computer system.
The men, who are aged between 24 and 47, have been arrested in connection with an allegation of conspiracy to steal from Barclays Bank, and conspiracy to defraud UK banks. They are in custody in London police stations.
Cash, jewellery, drugs, thousands of credit cards and personal data have been seized in searches at addresses in Westminster, Newham, Camden, Brent and Essex.
Detectives described one of the addresses in central London as the fraudsters' control centre.
A search of the Barclays Bank branch in Swiss Cottage, north London, where £1.3 million was stolen in April, unearthed a ''keyboard video mouse'' (KVM) switch attached to a 3G router to one of the computers. A KVM switch would allow the fraudsters to transmit desktop content.
It is alleged one of the plotters posed as an engineer, saying he was there to fix computers.
The KVM could allow someone to control a number of computers.
It is believed the gang could have been using the gadget to transfer money remotely into different bank accounts.
Metropolitan Police detective inspector Mark Raymond said: "Those responsible for this offence are significant players within a sophisticated and determined organised criminal network, who used considerable technical abilities and traditional criminal know-how to infiltrate and exploit secure banking systems."

There's something that this Oscar Class of 2013 can take from the award show veterans that have, and continue to, grace the red carpet before them. Notably, Jessica Lange, Glenn Close, and Helen Mirren are red carpet wonders that have worked their best features at numerous award shows over the years.
Innocence of Muslims aspired and failed to be a film, which was then dubbed, cut, and turned into a hybrid trailer-clip of a YouTube video. The poor production value, and the ignorance put into the creation of this project are far from worthy of the protests, bloodshed, or lives lost. Despite this, the Iranian government has decided to take a stand against the Academy Awards, for not taking a stand against a YouTube video and is boycotting the awards. This reasoning is untenable, and thus it merits some analysis.

Further checking gave me this page: http://technet.micro...server/bb512919 which had a list of downloads. I arrived here by checking Related Resources > Windows Server 2003 Resource Kit Tool Updates from this page: http://www.microsoft...s.aspx?id=17657.
The downloads I found included: Windows PowerShell 1.0 and 2.0, Windows Server 2003 SP2 (32bit x86) or an ISO, Windows Server 2003 SP2 (x64 Editions) - ISO image, Windows Server 2003 SP2 32bit Support Tools, Windows Server 2003 SP2 MUI Pack (32bit x86) Update, and System Preparation Tool for Windows Server SP2 Deployment (x64).
On that same page were headings: Featured Resources and Upgrade.
All of the above tells me there is more to the Windows Server 2003 Resource Kit Tools than what is listed in AutoPatcher and I wonder if it should be listed at all considering the information I found (unless you plan on eventually adding all this stuff).
Posted 06 July 2013 - 03:11 AM
As far as the program titles I use the name the developers had given --- less confusion this way when in the future for updating
I included Windows Server 2003 Resource Kit for only one reason, I do however regard it to be out of date for the purpose it was intended for.. If you install FilExile on an Operating system older than Windows Vista( to say Windows XP and before) one file is needed for it and only source I found was the Resource Kit..the file being Robocopy. This utility is included in Operating Systems Vista and above.
What I need to do instead is create an archive for Robocopy and have it extract to it's correct location.
The tools in the Resource Kit may be of use to some people, however will delete it from the package to save some download time and space

Also installed into Real Time Systems and no problems.
On a different subject, I made a blunder with the latest script (July 03)... was syncing the dropbox and autopatcher scripts and inadvertently cut /paste a section to main script instead of copy/paste.
This has been rectified and also a new Security Tool for Vista,Win7,Win8 -- TinyWall (a program to harden the Standard Firewall).. especially for those users who do not employ a third party firewall package.

If you are running virtual machines and invoke CPU-Z or GPU-Z neither will will display the information correctly.
An alternative DesertJerry is to get portable versions of these programs (not sure about GPU-Z), and run them for the information.
All the information is also displayed in either Speccy or HWiNFO.

The Disappearing Mother
Here's a quick challenge. Log onto your Facebook page and look at the last few months of photos. How many of those photos are of your kids? How many of those photos are you in? Now go to the Facebook page of a friend who doesn't have kids. How many pictures have they posted that are of themselves (with or without other people in them)? See a pattern?
Sometimes a blog post hits me dead between the eyes.
Lisa Belkin's post last week in the Huffington Post did just that. In it she writes of the overwhelming reader response to an essay by Allison Tate who wrote about her quest to put herself back in her children's pictures after noticing that she had fewer and fewer pictures of herself with her kids.
Tate asked how someone so omnipresent in her children's lives could be so absent in the documentation of their lives? It got me thinking. How many pictures do I have of myself with D2? Turns out not as many as I thought.
I remember when I posted the photo below on my Facebook page. I loved the contrast of D2′s face against the colorful design on my dress. One of my friends commented, "Love the photo but where is mommy?" Indeed, where is she? Who is she?
As I look back on the last three years of photos with D2, I realize that as he has gotten older, I am in fewer and fewer photos with him.
I've always shied away from being defined only by my role as a mother. As much as I love being a mother, I feel myself cringing when people say "Oh, you're D2′s mommy!" I want to say, "Yes, but I'm lots of other things too, not just a mother."
Am I subconsciously opting out of pictures to make a statement? Or is something else at work?
Or maybe it's that like lots of mothers, I see so many flaws in my "post-baby" body and pictures only serve as a reminder that some days I just don't feel or look all that fabulous. I wish my butt was smaller and my boobs were perkier. I wish I didn't have so many moles on my face. The list goes on and on. Every now and then when the stars align I feel like I look good enough to take a picture.
But what I realize from reading Allison Tate's essay is that's a pretty selfish reason to opt out of pictures. Truth be told, D2 doesn't care if I need a hair cut or if I am ten pounds too heavy. He doesn't care if I'm wearing lipgloss or if my eyebrows are perfectly shaped ready for my closeup.
No, he cares about hugs, kisses for his boo boos and our time together in his rocking chair where we record silly videos and take snapshots on my iPhone every single night – without fail. He needs to see me. He needs to know that when I am long gone, he can look back at our photos and see the documentation of a mother who loved him more than anything else in the world. I was there with him.
So like lots of moms who were moved by Allison Tate's essay, I'm putting myself back in the picture.
What I know for sure is that no documentation of D2′s life is complete without me in them. Your turn. Do you take photos with your kids? Do you ever find that you are missing from pictures of important family moments? What do you think of Allison Tate's challenge?

"I've found that New York cab drivers are some of the best storytellers -- a simple 'hello' can get them going.
"Some don't want to be bothered, but most enjoy sharing their adventures, whether it be about celebrity passengers or their lives in a foreign country you dream of visiting."
View from the front
Dixit raises a good point. What's the view from the front seat?
"You know, 99% of people are as nice as pie," says Steve McNamara, general secretary of the British Licensed Taxi Drivers' Association, himself behind the wheel of a London cab for 30 years. (Another, global survey, it should be said, has consistently rated London's legendary black taxis the best in the world.)
"Cab driving restores your faith in humanity. It can be trying when people say, 'I'm staying at the hotel with the green door.' Don't you know there are 8,000 hotels in London?
"And you get obnoxious people who've been drinking -- but that's not as common as you might think.
"The 1% -- the loonies -- can be right wing, left wing, Christian or Muslim. Drivers always say, put 'em all together in an island in the Atlantic!"
Pull up here
We're getting out here.
In the comments section, share your stories of being charmed, amused or unexpectedly edified by the person by the wheel.

WEC's Bi-Monthly Commentary on Energy,1 June 2008
The ballots are in, and Cyprus has been approved as WEC's newest member, bringing our total membership back to 93. We look forward to welcoming Cyprus to WEC at the EA in Mexico City.
A study on oil refining was approved as part of the Studies Programme in the 2008-2010 Business Plan, and a Task Force has been appointed to carry out this work, which will now be folded into the Assessment Study. Alessandro Careri of Eni (Italy) serves as chair of the Oil Refining Task Force.
The first meeting of the Task Force took place on 7 June in Rome. The group reviewed the Terms of Reference and discussed how the oil refining work will fit into the Assessment Study. The group also discussed its priorities and agreed to begin its work by preparing a "vision" of future demand to 2020 based on a review of relevant studies, particularly WEC's Scenarios study. The vision document will have a high level focus to help set the stage and provide background and a global context for the oil refining work. The inputs into the vision document are to be submitted by the end of June, and the next meeting of the Task Force will take place shortly thereafter to agree on the focal issues and the final outline of the Task Force report, which is scheduled to be completed in February 2009.
A new Regional Centre of Excellence for Renewable Energy and Energy Efficiency (RE&EE) was inaugurated in Cairo, Egypt, on 25 June. The Centre is the result of an initiative by WEC's German and Egyptian Member Committees, with further support from the German and Egyptian governments, the Danish government and the European Commission.
H.E. Dr. Hassan Younes, Egyptian Minister of Electricity and Energy opened the new Centre. Among others present were the Ministers of Environmental Affairs and Higher Education and Scientific Research, the ambassadors of Germany, Denmark and the EU to Egypt, distinguished experts from Egypt, the Arab region and the EU and Dr. Emad El-Sharkawi, Chair of the Egyptian National Committee/WEC.
The Centre is hosted by the Ministry of Electricity and Energy and will work on enhancing the exploitation of the abundant renewable energy resources in the region, RE&EE policies, public-private partnerships (PPP) and R&D technology policies and programmes. The Centre's initial plan of action focuses on an economic evaluation of decentralized small-scale and grid-connected large-scale RE systems compared with conventional electricity generation; standardisation of regulations for EE and their applications; technology transfer and local manufacturing of RE&EE components; identification of promising resource areas for manufacturing, focusing on wind turbine components; benchmarking of regional solar water heater promotion programmes against programmes in Spain and Greece; and a comparative analysis of public private partnerships for RE&EE. The Centre will also act as an information clearinghouse on RE&EE.
The World Economic Forum on Africa took place in Cape Town, South Africa, from 4-6 June. The theme of the meeting was "Capitalising on Opportunity". WEC was represented by Dr. Latsoucabé Fall, Africa Regional Manager. More than 800 high-level decision-makers and policymakers attended the Forum, which focused on how to tackle the daunting challenges Africa faces in the areas of food, water, healthcare, education, energy, climate change and politics. The event also considered the magnitude of the gap between these challenges and the immense opportunities which Africa offers.
Forum attendees concluded that solutions must be creative to scale up social and economic growth. In this context, five current African government leaders have stated that capitalising on opportunity will "require strong partnerships among government, business and civil society" and "strong African cooperation and engagement with the world". This outlook is very much in line with WEC's Scenarios study recommendations, particularly the "Lion Scenario" which requires new forms of government with more engagement as well as strong international and regional cooperation and integration.
The private sector is poised to play a growing role in partnership with governments, multilateral agencies and civil society organisations, to facilitate wealth creation and sustainable growth. Strong leadership is not only a necessary prerequisite to good governance in all sectors of society, but is also the ultimate force capable of turning adversity into opportunities.
On 3 June, just prior to the Forum, a workshop was held on the Energy Poverty Action initiative, which commits WEC, WEF and the World Business Council for Sustainable Development to work together to deliver business expertise and best practices to reduce energy poverty by developing innovative, scalable, replicable energy projects in rural areas. The workshop focused on action to date, including the Lesotho electrification project, which should come on line by the end of 2009, and on the work being done to facilitate access to required funding for EPA to develop rural electrification projects in Africa and elsewhere. This work, begun in May, is scheduled for completion for the WEF Summit in Davos in January 2009.
The workshop was also the occasion for Dr. Fall to present an update on WEC's Niger Energification Project following his recent mission to Niamey, Niger (see following report).
Dr. Fall visited Niger from 19-23 May to discuss the WEC Niger Energification Project with the Niger MC and the Niger authorities and to seek their support for the project. The visit also focused on ways in which the Niger Committee could strengthen itself and attract new members.
Latsoucabé reports that Niger is one of the world's poorest countries, with very low prospects for providing energy to rural areas. The 12 million inhabitants have a per capita GDP of $184 US a year. Energy use is 36 kg of oil equivalent per capita annually, compared to about 384 Koe/capita for all of Africa and 11,250 Koe/capita for the world. Electricity consumption is 35 kWh/capita, while the average for Africa is 538 kWh /capita and for the world, 2,423 kWh/capita. About 83% of Niger's population lives in rural areas, where electricity use is less than 1%. About 90% of households use traditional biomass, mainly fuel wood. The use of other energy sources, such as LPG, kerosene, solar and electricity for cooking, is marginal (less than 1%).
Lack of access to energy is a major impediment to human and economic development and poverty eradication, resulting in little or no access to basic services, such as education, health, water and sanitation, which exacerbates poverty and handicaps sustainable development. It is therefore essential to improve access to commercial energy in Niger's rural areas. To help address this, WEC is championing an energification project in Niger in conjunction with the WEF Energy Poverty Action initiative.
While in Niger, Latsoucabé met with a number of Niger energy companies and organisations to discuss WEC's work, focusing on our Scenarios study and its applicability to the energy issues Niger faces. He also visited the Minister of Mines and Energy, who commended WEC's work and expressed support for the Energification Project.
On 22 May, Latsoucabé visited Kouré, the potential site for the Energification Project. Kouré is 55 km from Niamey, with good access by road. The population is 2,924, and some basic services and industry are in place. The village is not electrified, but some PV solar installations exist for key services, such as the health centre. The main challenge for the village is the intensive use of fuel wood biomass for household cooking and the progressive scarcity of wood, with massive deforestation. Affordable lighting devices producing LED lighting have recently been introduced at very low cost and are beginning to penetrate the rural market; these can play an important role in helping poor households gain access to cleaner, better performing lighting. Kerosene and fuel wood for lighting are thus disappearing from rural areas.
As a result of Latsoucabé's visit, the Niger Energification Project will proceed; a concept paper will be completed shortly, then work will focus on attracting the relevant stakeholders, developing the letter of interest and consolidating support from the Ministry. Additional sites besides Kouré will be identified, a full funding proposal will be developed, financing will be sought and the project will be implemented.
A reminder that WEC is co-sponsoring, with the Financial Times, the first annual Energy Leaders Summit on 16-17 September at the Cumberland Hotel in London. The theme for the Summit is "Investment Opportunities in Clean Energy Businesses". Confirmed speakers include WEC Chair Pierre Gadonneix; Antonio Brufau, Chair and CEO of Repsol YPF; H.E Geir H. Haarde, Prime Minister of Iceland; Angel Gurria, Secretary General, OECD; Andris Piebalgs, EU Commissioner for Energy; Tulsi Tanti, Chairman and Managing Director, Suzlon Group Limited; and Dr. Hassan Younes, Egyptian Minister of Electricity and Energy.

The Performant: Sometimes a great notion
TAP Light Production's "The Ballad of Michele Myers" goes for the jugular
The genre of the spoof slasher storyline is one always ripe for mining come Halloween season, and this year in the absence of The Primitive Screwheads annual offering, Raya Light and Todd Pickering stepped up to fill the void with their collaborative "The Ballad of Michele Myers." A cheeky blend of high camp and low blows mixed into a frothy, bloody cocktail of makeovers and machetes, "Ballad" satiates that unique craving for slutty Nancy Reagan costumes, updated Aretha Franklin covers, and buckets of stage blood. Plus it gives trans-folk a misunderstood serial killer to call their very own. You've come a long way, baby!
You definitely don't need to have ever seen a Halloween film featuring Michael Myers in order to follow the events unfolding onstage. "Ballad" amusingly mashes up references from a broad swath of pop culture's most recognizable tropes including "Friday the 13th," "The Facts of Life," and "South Park," with musical nods to Warren Zevon, Amanda Palmer, Tom Lehrer, and even Hall and Oates. Four moody teenage girls (three mean, one misfit) wind up at Camp Crystal Lake with their scatter-brained, spinsterish chaperone Mrs. Skerritt (Audra Wolfmann), in order to attend a ghastly adolescent rite of passage called "The Pumpkin Prance". The queen bee of the clique is naturally named Heather (Trixxie Carr), a shapely package of malice and spite, who makes her long-suffering, if equally bitchy, besties Pat (Raya Light, in a fat suit) and Koochi (the formidable Miss Rahni) seem downright saintly.
After terrifying her impressionable charges with a spooky story about the mythical "Michele Myers" who supposedly haunts the Camp, Mrs. Skerritt conveniently disappears, leaving the lasses to their own devices, and setting the stage for some epic teen bullying and a surprise revelation from picked-on misfit Joe (Flynn Witmeyer) that she's actually a he. Yes, dude looks like a lady (with a mullet), and furthermore, has a crush on Heather, who repays Joe's advances by setting him up to get bashed: dressing him up in a hot pink, glam rock princess outfit and orchestrating a rowdy game of "Seven Minutes in Heaven" with a posse of doltish boyfriends.
That this sordid chain of events reverberates back to the legend of Michele (Kai Medieros) is lost on our "heroes" until she shows up to stab one of the clueless horndogs in the back and the chase is on! Mayhem ensues, plus extreme makeovers, shocking revelations, and the obligatory "Thriller"-inspired dance bit, while blood and accusations fly through the air. With its hilariously upbeat musical score (Todd Pickering), shrewd costuming (Daniella Turner and Joe Adame) and a cast packed with Thrillpeddlers' alumni who know their way around a salacious splatterfest, "The Ballad of Michele Myers" satiates all expectations, and heralds (hopefully) the birth of a new Bay Area Halloween tradition. You know we can always use just one more.
Thank you Nicole for such a thoughtful and thorough review of the show. It gets me a little misty!! While it wasn't high art in the least, it was a lot of fun and a GREAT deal of hard work. I don't know if I have the energy to produce it again, but I will definitely use your article to shop it around. Thanks again for coming to the show and your support! MWAH!

What are the signs and symptoms of sinus infection?
Comment on this
Read 27 Comments
Commonly the symptoms of sinus infection are headache, facial tenderness, pressure or pain, and fever. However, as few as 25% of patients may have fever associated with acute sinus infection. Other common symptoms include:
Some people notice an increased sensitivity or headache when they lean forward because of the additional pressure placed on the sinuses. Others may experience tooth or ear pain, fatigue, or bad breath. In noninfectious sinusitis, other associated allergy symptoms of itching eyes and sneezing may be common, but may include some of the symptoms listed above for infectious sinusitis. Nasal drainage is usually clear or whitish-colored in people with noninfectious sinusitis. With rare fulminant fungal infections, there may be ulceration, with sharply defined edges and a black, necrotic center in the nasal area. Some fungal infections cause a dark, black-appearing exudates. This requires immediate medical evaluation. Medically Reviewed by a Doctor on 1/31/2013 Patient CommentsViewers share their comments

*Editor's Note: This opinion is in response to a Lake View published Dec. 27 titled "Progressives and the unions."
Just got back from spending time with family for the holidays, and caught up with reading the Lake Sun for the period I was gone. Apparently, Thursday was a slow day for letters as the entire Lake View section was consumed by a diatribe against unions from Jane Boyce. I don't think I have ever seen unions blamed for both Communism and National Socialism in one article before.
Apparently she would prefer to see 11- and 12-year-olds working in factories, mines and on construction crews, six day work weeks, at straight pay and no benefits or even paid vacations for workers.
If she would like a sample of that milieu, she should take a look at the nation's largest employer, Walmart, which has almost one and a half million employees in the US.
It might surprise her to find that her tax dollars are helping Walmart to reap billions in profits by paying many of their workers at rates which force them to rely on food stamps and Medicaid. In fact, in almost every state, the largest single group of clients for those two programs is Walmart employees.
All this while, the president of Walmart was paid 18 million in 2011. He made more in one hour than his average worker makes in a year.
I could fill the entire paper with stories of violence against union members and organizers. And don't get me started on the organizations which spent millions trying to defeat the President.

I really really really love the looks of these for my kitchen (hanging over the bar area) but I thought I remembered being told that they were not good. Something about them being clear, which made them too bright and too dusty. I want to hear opinions again. This is the style I'm talking about. I love this look but it also needs to be practial.

Or these, since they're smaller Happily married and mom of 4 Central maryland - Zone 7 | ||||
I really like them, but having to clean them all the time would drive me crazy. Wanda | ||||
That's what I think too but I guess I'm holding out hope that people will respond with positive comments. Hey,a girl can dream, right? Happily married and mom of 4 Central maryland - Zone 7 | ||||
I love these myself! But the bare lightbulb look will get to you as you keep having it affect your eyesight when looking AT the direction they are hung. GLARE! My solution, IF I found one I would love to have.... is get some etching cream, tape off a stripe where the bulbs are and then etch that part of the shade only IF you want to see the post under or over the bulb. That should cut down the halo around the bulb and also the glare. I can't blame you for loving this look, I do too, so classy! | ||||
I prefer the second style for over a bar in a kitchen. I like the clear globe being turned downward. The first light would catch all the dust and be extremely noticeable. That style would not be easy to clean since the globe is turned up and clear. The other style would look good in your home and would not be that difficult to clean. I like them. The dust would not collect inside the globe just be on the outside so that would be simple to clean. Good luck. | ||||
Thanks Rita! I always like your opinions Happily married and mom of 4 Central maryland - Zone 7 | ||||
FM, I dont' have those exact lights, but I do have a new one over my sink that is clear glass and I use an Edison bulb in it (which came with the light fixture) and I love it. Of course it will have to be cleaned on occasion but I don't notice glare. I love mine. My globe is turned downward so I guess easier to clean than the upward style. Let us hear what you choose... ETA~I think they give off much more lighting with the clear glass...This message has been edited. Last edited by: CaraRose, | ||||
I don't notice glare, but The Husband and all my friends who wear glasses do. Maybe it's just their lenses? Maybe certain lenses don't? | ||||
Hi FM, I have this one at the end of our kitchen. It does get dusty (and buggy). ~Like sands through the hourglass ~So are the days of our lives | ||||
Thanks Beau. You're light is gorgeous. I think if we go with clear glass, it definately needs to be "down" to keep the dust to a minimum, like Paintlady said. Happily married and mom of 4 Central maryland - Zone 7 | ||||
We have these clear glass pendants in the living room, but they are enclosed. We only need to dust the tops every few months. If they were in the kitchen I know I would have to get up there and clean them with a degreaser.This message has been edited. Last edited by: zone9alady, Whether You Think You Can Or You Think You Can't..... You're Right - Henry Ford | ||||
My sister has just hung the 2nd one in her kitchen. The light bulb, when on, is bothering her. It is very bright & hurts the eyes. She is going to try and raise the light to above eye level, but not sure it will look right. You would have to keep it clean, because it will show dirt & dust easily. It looks so beautiful turned off & in a magazine, but maybe not the most practical choice. | ||||
THanks everyone. It's very helpful. Luckily, where I want to put these are not near my cooking area. Happily married and mom of 4 Central maryland - Zone 7 | ||||
Even if you can't see the dust, it's still there | ||||
Lovely glass pendant are shown here. But it is not for the kitchen. It will be best suit in the rest room or drawing room. | ||||
Good bye spammer | ||||
Here is one from Ikea that is glazed so glare and dust would not be an issue ----------------------- Grandmas my name & spoilins my game! ------------------------ | ||||
