text: Human disconnect, frailty, and redemption serve as the predominant themes in director Erik Weigel's drama about a man who learns that his childhood friend is dying, and sets out for Washington, D.C. on a mission to record the man's final farewells. The last time that Elliot (Leo Fitzpatrick) saw Matthew they were foster kids living in the nation's capitol. Now Elliot has received word that Matthew is dying, so he hits the road with his trusty video camera in hand, determined to capture his long-lost friend's last words for posterity. Later, at Matthew's funeral, Elliot meets Matthew's former girlfriend Lily (Elizabeth Moss), and his cynical, self-absorbed pal Gray (Christopher Denham). Impulsively stealing Matthew's ashes, Gray and Lily decide to make their way south of the border with Elliot in tow, and scatter the remains of their old friend in the Pacific Ocean. But upon hitting the open road, all three quickly realize that this is no ordinary mission, and that they will all be forced to contend with some weighty questions about life before accomplishing their ultimate goal. ~ Jason Buchanan, Rovi

Political & economic relations
Canada is one of the European Union's oldest and closest partners. What started out in the 1950s as a purely economic relationship has evolved over the years to become a close strategic partnership.
The EU and Canada work closely together on global challenges such as the environment, climate change, energy security and regional stability throughout the world. This cooperation stretches from research into alternative energy sources to providing police training in Afghanistan.
European and Canadian representatives meet regularly to exchange views, from yearly bilateral summits of leaders to meetings between officials on specific issues. The EU-Canada Partnership Agenda - adopted at the Ottawa Summit on 18 March 2004 - identifies ways of working together to move forward, especially where joint action can achieve more than acting alone.
The Partnership Agenda acknowledges the significant evolution of EU-Canada relations as a result of developments in the EU since 1976 when the relationship with Canada was first formalised through the Framework Agreement on Economic Co-operation. This was the first formal agreement of its kind between what was then the EEC and an industrialised third country.
In addition to trade relations, other policy sectors are also important in the relationship: co-operation in justice and home affairs, science & technology, education & training… more

Earlier this month, we launched a new feature on our Facebook page called "Question of the Month." The idea is to get readers talking about issues that affect them, and well as encourage readers to view our Facebook page as a place they can communicate with us about what they like and what they'd like to see more of in the magazine and online.
Our first question was extremely timely, if limited in appeal. We asked readers to give us their thoughts on whether Congress was right to block the U.S. Department of Agriculture from implementing restrictions relating to tomatoes and potatoes on school lunch menus. We've chosen one reader's answer to be featured in our January issue. Look for it on the Opinion page.
For our next question of the month, we've chosen the topic of sustainability. This is one of the hottest trends in foodservice, and yet no organization or government agency has really come up with an accepted definition of what sustainability is. Some operators have even told us that they can't use the term because the USDA hasn't defined it. So our question is this:
Do we need one "approved" definition of sustainability? If so, what do you believe it must contain?
Log onto our Facebook page to join the discussion and offer your suggestions. Again, we will select one provocative answer and print it in our February issue.
This is our last newsletter of 2011. I'd like to take this opportunity to wish all our readers a happy holiday season. We look forward to again providing you with valuable information in 2012.

There's been much speculation about availability and pricing of the Motorola XOOM tablet announced at CES. Today, the facts are in - Verizon Wireless will be offering the XOOM this week, on February 24th, for $599.99 with a new two-year contract or $799.99 without one.
The Motorola XOOM has a 10.1-inch HD display and 1GHz dual-core processor, runs Android 3.0 Honeycomb OS, supports 1080p HD video, sports a front-facing 2-megapixel camera for video chats and a 5-megapixel camera on the back to capture video in 720P HD. The 3G data service will start at $20 a month for 1GB of data. You can get an idea of 1GB of data offers in this blog post. The good news is that next quarter you'll be able to upgrade the tablet to work with Verizon's 4G LTE service at no additional charge.
So, now that you know the facts, are you going to get the first Android Honeycomb tablet? Let us know by leaving a comment.

JACKSONVILLE, Fla. — Most people know a colonoscopy requires some preparation by the patient. Now, a Mayo Clinic physician suggests an additional step to lower the risk of colorectal cancer: Ask for your doctor's success rate detecting easy-to-miss polyps called adenomas.
The measure of success is called the adenoma detection rate, or ADR, and has been linked to a reduced risk of developing a new cancer after the colonoscopy. The current recommended national benchmark is at least 20 percent, which means that an endoscopist should be able to detect adenomas in at least 1 of 5 patients getting a colonoscopy.
Recently, the Mayo Clinic in Florida developed a two-hour course designed to increase a doctor's ADR rate in order to reduce development of colorectal cancer.
They found the short course made a big difference in even experienced endocopsists, the physicians who perform colonoscopies.
"Numerous studies have shown that increased detection and removal of potentially precancerous polyps lowers the incidence of colorectal cancer," says Michael Wallace, M.D., M.P.H., chair of the Division of Gastroenterology and Hepatology at Mayo Clinic in Florida. "We also know that there is a lot of variability in how proficient physicians are at finding those polyps."
A team of Mayo physicians and researchers led by Dr. Wallace, has long been working to help endoscopists better detect polyps. Their findings are published in the Jan. 8 online issue of the American Journal of Gastroenterology.
Dr. Wallace and his team developed a two-hour training course that describes polyps that can be difficult to see, such as flat lesions, but are often the most dangerous.
The research team turned to Mayo Clinic endoscopists to study whether the course helps. Researchers first looked at the adenoma detection rate in 15 physicians and found it was 35 percent — almost twice the national average.
Then, seven endoscopists were randomly chosen to take the course, and detection rate was then measured in all of the endoscopists — those who took the course and the eight who didn't. Over the course of the study, these physicians performed 2,400 colonoscopies.
The researchers found that the endoscopists who took the course improved their adenoma detection rate to 47 percent, while the rate remained 35 percent among the doctors who did not take the course.
"This relatively simple education program substantially increased the proficiency of physicians who are already skilled," Dr. Wallace says. "Many people in the field think it is hard to change an endoscopist's level of proficiency, but we show that is not the case."
Dr. Wallace is now seeking to test the benefit of the short training course in a wider range of non-academic, community-based physicians — the doctors who perform most colonoscopies.
The study was funded by Mayo Clinic.

Elephants in the spotlight!
28 April 2006
The last few weeks have been abuzz with activity as thousands of people poured into the Zoo for the Easter period. Not only did Steve and Terri feed the crocodiles at the main show, but Bindi also had a new and exciting addition to the Crocosuem (a show featuring herself and a dance crew called the Crocmen). These shows proved to be a huge success and while Bindi was busy performing, the elephants also were preparing for a show of their own!
Before feeding the crocs, Steve first wanted to welcome into the Crocoseum the "biggest, most drop-dead gorgeous sheilas in the Zoo", as he so passionately puts it. So in came our three elephants, following each other into the Crocoseum, where a bucket of tasty fruit awaited them. This was a special and fantastic opportunity for our visitors to appreciate the size and intelligence of these animals, who were just by their presence playing the most important role of all; that is of educators.
We hope by bringing the elephants into the Crocoseum we can touch the hearts and minds of all our visitors and instill an urge to love, protect and respect elephants, therefore bringing us one step closer to our goal of conserving this species in the wild.

O'Gara's glittering career has also seen him selected for three British and Irish Lions Tours as well as making 240 appearances for Munster, wining two Heineken Cups and amassing 2,625 points in the process.
But O'Gara will not be able to add to these impressive tallies as he takes up a coaching role at Racing Metro, where he will team up with fellow Irish fly-half Jonathan Sexton who is set to move there after playing for Leinster against Ulster in the PRO12 final on Saturday.
"I have ambitions in the years ahead to coach at a high level and, with this in mind, I can confirm now that I will be joining Racing Metro's coaching staff in July," O'Gara told the Irish Examiner.

Shooters hold balance of power In NSW Australia
THE state's infrastructure projects have been put in jeopardy because of a stalemate over duck hunting. Laws allowing the $4 billion leasing of Port Botany and Port Kembla, which would help fund major road and rail projects in NSW, are off the agenda in the upper house after a breakdown in negotiations with the powerful Shooters and Fishers Party. Crossbench MPs Robert Borsak and Robert Brown were set to support the leasing bill this week but were told the government was stalling on a deal to allow the Game Council to issue licences to kill game birds on private land. In May, Premier Barry O'Farrell promised the Shooters and Fishers Party members he would agree to their demands as part of a series of deals made to guarantee the sale of the electricity generators. On Wednesday night, the two Shooters MPs were told they would need to amend the bill if it was to get through cabinet. "They put forward some suggestions to amend the bill, which we cannot agree to," Mr Brown said. Now, key legislation like the lease of the ports and the redistribution of electoral boundaries, which would benefit the Liberal and National parties, hangs in the balance. "It is not just ports. It is everything in the future. It would tell us the government aren't prepared to negotiate in good faith," Mr Brown said. Mr Borsak said: "We expect the government to treat us with respect and to honour their commitments. They have no philosophical love of ducks. They do have a philosophical love of money and an electoral need for money." It is understood the Premier, Roads Minister Duncan Gay, Energy Minister Chris Hartcher, Police Minister Michael Gallacher and Finance Minister Greg Pearce are key backers of the duck hunting bill.The Shooters MPs said they do not want to go to war with the government but expect the Premier to honour his word. "We have an expectation that the Premier will sort it out. If they want to backslide, that is their problem," Mr Borsak said. The minor party, which controls the balance of power in the upper house, is a crucial ally of the government. Since the election they have voted with the government on 84 per cent of divisions. Mr Brown and Mr Borsak said they were concerned their duck hunting bill had been stalled because of ructions within the Coalition. "We know - we are not guessing - we know there are elements within the government, within the cabinet even ... that want to start a fight between the rednecks and the Premier," Mr Brown said. "We have a message to those trying to destabilise the Premier: We know who you are, we know what you're trying to do and we are not going to play your game. We will continue to negotiate with Barry in good faith." |

Re: Episode 1
But the girl who got hit by the car, I found her look just identical to Miku Kanzaki from the other series. She was a sub character in that series, some 12 year old girl. Apparently she was one of the guest characters aside from the 4 other characters introduced in the official website. And it seems she is working for Mori.

Re: Episode 1
The fact that you say the girl who got hit by the car is a sub-character from the upcoming game makes me wonder how that'll tie in to this anime unless that happened in KoiChoco. Eh...whatever, ill see how the anime plays out.

Episode 2
Bah...it's always not the best to be impatient on the show you're looking forward to every week (until it turns for the worse). I sort of got the jist of the episode at least - Oojima got roped back into what he tried to get out of. Again...nothing really special about him, pretty normal for a high school student.
So, it seems like every character is misreading our MC's name - Ooshima instead of Oojima. I suppose it's just typical kanji confusion. Speaking of his name, Non-chan shows us a picture of the famous Oojima-roll that is suppose to be really good (looks like a roll cake of sorts). We see Satsuki more in this episode - she doesn't seem to be too terrible of a person judging the tone of her speech towards Oojima. It also seems like she persuaded him to do something about the possibility of the club being abolished. Not a bad character - probably will have better judgement after reading subs. We also meet Aomi this episode - she's the one who ran into Oojima last episode. Now, we have a name to go with the face! The light of god censorship continues in this episode for a split second - again with Morishita. At least it's not in the way and it's still for a split second, but I feel like the animators should have just drawn her skirt over her ass. I wonder if it's a slight compensation for Morishita fans - giving them some fanservice because she's most likely not going to win in this series. Oh yea...nothing new on the front of the hospitalized girl. The show continues to be cute.
Hoshii Miki from The iDOLM@STER looking delightful as always. |
Re: Episode 2
Subs...yay. Watching this episode again was much better than NakaImo and Binbougami....
So, Satsuki really isn't that bad a person at all and she's pretty cute too She seems to have some interest in Oojima - prodding him into doing something about the upcoming election. Not only that, but the current student council president has an interest in seeing him run in the elections. I do like at the end his speech backfires, but, at the same time, it does make him look like a good candidate. Chisato continues to be fav character - like what she said to Oojima in episode 1, she's the cute childhood friend. Cute indeed. Unlike episode 1, at least she didn't smack him after he grabbed her boobs. Quite funny that it was he who committed violence by kicking her out of bed. I have to wonder after this episode - Chisato or Satsuki? Possibility of harem ending? And, yet, again, the episode brings up Chisato and her not liking chocolate. It made the end a little depressing. Inquiring minds want to know - what caused her to not like chocolate!? That's the one thing I want to know before the show ends as I assume the game explains it.

Re: Episode 2
Satsuki for BEST GIRL. Also the green underside of Chisato's hair is really weird.
So yeah, stuff and such. Entertaining show, in general.

Re: Episode 2
Flashback to their childhood was sweet.
So their club will be shut down if they don't run for and win the elections. No surprise they were pushing Yuuki to run for student council president. Those girls sure like their club, but I it's no wonder ^^ Oojima seriously lacked resolve and motivation. Shinonome made a difference and managed to persuade him to fight.

Re: Episode 2
I realised with this episode what I quite like about this show (apart from the decent characters), which is the detailed backgrounds. The club room particularly - I want to just pause each scene and look at all the stuff on the shelves. It makes the show quite a feast for the eyes.
Re: Episode 2
The waking up scene was pretty amusing. For once, a girl doesn't get pissed about a boob grope! Hallelujah! She's pretty chill about it and only thing she gets angry about is him kicking her off his bed.
I think those three girls (Matsuri, Ayumu, ???) that ran by must be the other three cameo characters. We meet a more pleasant, less formal Satsuki and her gravity defying hair.....ribbon/tie things. The thing with Oojima's name was kinda cute. But what was with that laugh? It's like he trolled her, but his name IS Oojima (unless ANN still has it wrong), so WTF? Then we get to meet Isara, the Low Income Student girl who's twintails defy gravity but that's pretty normal for anime and I normally probably wouldn't even notice if not for the thing with Satsuki's hair ornament. Actually... I don't think those really qualify as twintails. Her hair is weird if you really look at it. It's like a combination of pigtails, short twintails and longer twintails. Er, so did he just troll her too? Yeah, looks like it, since the Not!Twins call him Ooshima. Or maybe they're just screwing it up too. Christ. *checks official website* Okay, it actually is Oojima. I guess he's just being creepy about meeting cute girls. Then his next statement confirms that's his reason, right before he runs into the guys. Never trust guys that never open their eyes. They're pretty much always bastards. This one comes across as a decent enough guy in this scene though. I have to say, I'm rather liking Yuuki so far. Mostly, anyway. Could have done without the lecherous smirk stuff, but at least they've been low key on his desires for a romantic encounter, so its been handled much better than basically every time any other anime has tried to do something with a guy actively hoping to run into girls for such reasons. BlueHaired Not!Twin is apparently the one person in the club with a brain. "Hmmm, maybe we could try accomplishing something." Others: "Fuck it, takes effort." Non-chan is completely insane. I guess this is what happened when Nono tried to force Hakase to go to school. AAAAAHAHAHAHA!!! "You seemed to only care about the "Jima" part, so I assumed the rest of your name was irrelevant" XD Fucking love her already. Huh, and she says the plan for the club to have him run against her for president isn't a bad idea. She probably thinks it would be awesome for him to serve as a spoiler and siphon votes from her opponent. Well, I'd be amused if that was the case, but she comes across as genuinely supportive. I like Satsuki a lot, but damn is that gravity defying hair-ornament distracting. It's nice to see a male lead that- Wait, what? You're going to elect your nominee? That's your idea of having them not just shove all the work onto you? And here I was just about to praise you for showing some leadership and making them act as your campaign staff. I mean, hell, what does this even do? They're just all going to elect you anwyay. I mean, that's what they already did! WTF, they can't pick? And I guess he had a bit more of a plan than that. Ahahaha, fuck yes, he's trying to shove the job on Chisato. And he does a nice job of "subtly" directing their vote to her. Booooo, it failed. I'd much rather see Chisato run for the job. ;_; At least that gave them a good reason to vote for him though, instead of the job just being shoved onto him because.... well, because. I'm really liking this show.

As a Vietnam vet, yes, you're right...on all counts. We never showed the difference between Native and Non Native...we ALL bled red. To many of my brothers and sisters, were used and when we couldn't preform anymore, discarded like so much trash.
No, we weren't perfect...but we had our "ghosts" that we coudn't outrun...the knowledge at 18 or 19 years old that we could get "use" to taking a life. They taught us how to kill, but never how to turn it off, or to live with it. We only had each other, because no one else understood what we were going thorugh.
I didn't "know" Sam, but I see him in the face of every brother and sister in arms, without a home...without a family...without hope. We did what we thought was right, regardless of what this country thought at the time. We looked out for each other, because no one else would. This country took a lot from us, both Native and Non Native...they took our youth, our health, but they couldn't take our PRIDE.
To Sam: I'm sorry brother, that we weren't there to see you off, as you made your crossing. You will be loved and missed here. I was Army, but rest easy and set a round up for us, when we make our way home. HOOORAY!!

More random thoughts from my brain that may mean something to you.
There's a difference between being nice and being kind. They are not the same. Niceness has to do with telling others what you think they want to hear. It's a vehicle for social context and it rarely, if ever, rocks the boat. God has called us to something else: kindness. Kindness is honest and originates from a heart deeply invested in the well-being of another. Kindness has many faces – it can provide shelter for the homeless or it can confront the addict. Both are done out of a spirit of love (I Cor. 13:4; Eph. 4:32). Being nice is often concerned with making people like us. But some of the greatest moments of kindness will be met with violent reaction. Kindness involves sacrifice and risk…of resources, reputation, or time. It can make people uncomfortable…because kindness thinks outside the box on occasion to meet the needs of others. Kindness serves the deeper purpose of loving others. And it reflects the heart of God.
Pathological optimism is a good thing. I heard the term "pathological optimist" from an interview with Wikipedia founder Jimmy Wales. I liked it. It represents someone who isn't afraid of thinking on the bright side…constantly. Of believing that any one person can change their environment for the better. We can all do that. And we can all choose to be unafraid of the unknowns. Anyone can tell you the reasons why a good idea might not work. Where's the originality in that? That idea you have swimming around in the back of your brain? You should act on it. You're capable. You don't have to be neurotic to believe the best about others and about your own abilities (Phil. 2:3-4). You don't have to be neurotic to believe that you're the focus of God's intense and personal love. It's already true. If believing the truth in a sea of bet-hedging, risk assessing, conventionalists is pathological, then come join me in the asylum.
In the end, all we have is our integrity. Integrity is the place where your actions match your beliefs. You may not have the same beliefs as me, but we can all be authentic enough to let those beliefs inform our actions. AG and CG were in a musical this Summer. But AG is only five…and several times it showed. I had never seen a child pick their nose onstage until mine did. What AG thought was a personal moment was out there for everyone to see. Same with all of us. People can see what we are doing – they see how we live and the choices we make. That's not a reason to live for others. But it is a reason to know that what we do matters. Clinging to your integrity may not even translate well in the public eye. Sometimes doing what's right can hurt a little (Psalm 15:4). In the end, the only thing you're buried with is your integrity.

Showing off your love for a particular colour (in this case- blues and purples) should not require painting of walls or purchasing a new sofa. Assuming all walls and large/ expensive furniture items are of neutral colours.
With minor changes to arts, accessories and florals, you can easily achieve a new look for your space… regardless of your colour obsession.
Tip—>use mirrors to reflect colour pieces. This is good way to add more colours into a space without overcrowding.
Keep it clean and simple!

Reviews of Coconut Jelly Beans - 16 oz
No need to crack open a coconut to get to the sweet center. Coconut jelly beans bring you all the flavor of the real thing, without the hard shell. We use real coconut flakes to bring this tropical treat to life. Grab a handful and be swept away to a faraway island.Approximately 400... read more about Coconut Jelly Beans - 16 oz
Comments: OFFICE SNACK |
Comments: We bought the Vikings colors and put them into our bubblegum machine instead of gum! They look great. |
Comments: This product did not disapoint! The size and flavor were just right. I added the coconut jelly bellys to the belly flops for a different flavor array. I would purchase these jelly bellys again. |
Comments: Bought these to serve as part of the candy buffet at my cousin's wedding in Hawaii. Chose them because of their color, flavor, and since they won't melt in heat and humidity. |
Comments: The coconut added the right balance to the 2 other flavors I mixed it with, Sunkist Lime & Dk Chocolate. It was more for color theme, but the balanced flavors, Nailed it!!! |
Comments: I am using these jelly beans to fill my champagne bottle party favors for my wedding. I am having a coconut wedding cake so this was perfect as a take away flavor from the reception |
Comments: Yuummmmmmy!! |
Comments: The coconut flavor is not quite up to Jelly Belly standards. It is not as intense as my other favorites. You can certainly tell you are eating a coconut flavor candy, and you probably can't find a coconut flavor jelly bean anywhere else, but I probably won't order this flavor again due to it being slightly bland. |
Comments: I used coconut in combination with other colors/flavors for baby shower favors, they were a hit! |
Comments: these were purchased for my daughters wedding shower & she is a coconut freak! They were a hit! |
Comments: I found these a lot cheaper in the store.I,m sorry I purchased them online |
Comments: I love anything with coconut and your jelly beans are great! |
Comments: I used these as part of my wedding favors. |
Comments: It's a great low calorie candy for quenching a sugar craving. |
Comments: This is better than a handful of coconut right out of the bag. My absolute favorite Jelly Belly, by a long shot. |

UWRF International Trade Survey 2012-13
During fall 2012, Dr. Erick Highum led a team of UWRF student researchers to determine the level of support that UW-RF students have for policies regarding the issue of international trade. The team included UWRF students Erynn Delahousaye, Michael DeMatties, Chad Hanson, Hannah Carlson, and Kathryn Van Putten, who helped create the survey and gathered responses from more than 340 students. The survey was designed to determine the level of support that UWRF students have for policies of the U.S. government regarding the issue of international trade and international institutions that focus on trade. The questions in the survey also tested the level of support that UWRF students have for the theoretical approaches to the issue of international trade of free trade, and fair trade.
Student researchers will be presenting the results of the survey at the April 2013 National Conference of Undergraduate Research, and will be informing the UWRF community of student views on this important international relations topic in spring 2013.
The overall results for each of the questions for all participating students are contained in this pdf document: UWRF International Trade Survey 2012-13. The overall results suggest that UWRF students who participated in the survey:
- Have much stronger support for fair trade policies (question #31) over free trade policies (question #30) and protectionism policies (question #15);
- Strongly support policies whereby the U.S. Government increases trade with countries that have established health and safety protections for their workers (question #29); with countries that support women's rights (question #27); and with countries that have democratic governance (question #28);
- Are in strong agreement with policies that promote trade based on the ethical treatment of workers and farmers (question #35), and are environmentally sustainable (question #36);
- Are in relatively strong agreement that trade sanctions and other trade restrictions will affect political outcomes in targeted countries (question #17);
- Have mixed results regarding which sets of countries the U.S. government should increase trade with. The strongest support is for trade with countries in the European Union (question #26), and in Latin America (question #23), with significantly less support for trading with countries that assisted in U.S. military operations in Afghanistan (question #21), in Africa (question #22), in Asia (question #24), and in the Middle East (question #25). Open ended comments indicated that some survey participants would have liked to see the regions of the world broken down further in this survey section.

By Gregory Phillips Staff writer
After six months on the market, the former Board of Elections building on Russell Street is staying in county hands. But who will occupy the 4,860-square-foot building is yet to be decided.
The county put the building up for sale six months ago for $675,000. In December, the nonprofit Dispute Resolution Center made a $400,000 offer on it. The county Facilities Committee rejected that offer Thursday and told county staff to prepare a recommendation on the best use for it.
The tax value on the building is $440,538, which means it would generate about $3,200 in property taxes each year - though not from a nonprofit, which wouldn't pay taxes. To rent that amount of privately-owned space for county offices would cost about $48,000 a year at current rates.
"If you're not collecting the tax value on it, that's ridiculous to sell it to somebody when you've got a need for it," Commissioner Kenneth Edge said Thursday.
There's competition for the space within county government. Human resources needs training rooms, but some of the county's 47,000 veterans have been pushing to have Veterans Services moved there.
That office is housed in about 3,200 square feet at the Social Services building off Ramsey Street.
Between 800 and 900 veterans visit the office in a usual month, said Sharon Sanders, director of Veterans Services. In October and November, it was more than 1,000.
"That was the most we've ever had," Sanders said.
There are 19 parking spots for disabled visitors at Social Services, but they're often full, which means disabled veterans often face a longer hike to get into the building and to the office. But Commissioner Billy King, the newly-appointed chairman of the Facilities Committee, said Thursday he's not persuaded of the need for the move.
"I'm told the reason they want to leave the DSS building is because of the clientele over there, not because of the lack of space," he said. "That's not a justifiable reason, in my mind."
County management will come up with a recommendation for the building in the next two months, within the context of the county's long-term space needs. County administration takes up most of the courthouse fifth floor, but judicial leaders have said they will eventually need that space for the court system.
The county once planned to move its operations to the former Health Department building on Fountainhead Lane, but $8 million set aside toward renovations was subsequently rolled into an expansion of the county jail. Since then, the Board of Elections has moved to the first floor of the former Health Department - now known as the E. Newton Smith Center - where an employee wellness clinic has also opened.
Those moves have left the county's space plans in need of revision, said Jeffery Brown, the county's director of engineering and infrastructure.
"The departments that are now located within the building were not identified to be in there at all," he said. "So we've lost that space."

Hoddle set for FA commission role
7:34am Wednesday 9th October 2013 in National Sport News © Press Association 2013
Football Association chairman Greg Dyke is expected to announce on Wednesday that Glenn Hoddle is to be part of his commission looking at how to improve the England team, Press Association Sport understands.
The former England manager has held talks with Dyke on two occasions and the FA chairman is expected to make the announcement at the Leaders in Football conference in London on Wednesday morning.
Dyke, who took over as chairman in July, believes action is needed to address what he described as a "frightening trend" of the reduction in the number of English players in the Premier League.
The aim of the body will be to improve England's long-term prospects but while Football League chairman Greg Clarke has agreed to be part of it, the Premier League will not have a representative on the commission.
Hoddle, 55, has not confirmed his involvement personally, but his appointment was revealed on the website he co-founded. He also been outspoken over the issue of the lack of English players.
He said recently: "We've got foreign owners, who bring in foreign managers, who bring in foreign players above English players and it's a downward spiral.
"It really is a concern. The pool has gone down from 48% in 1998-99, when I was [England] manager, to 32% this season.
"The England manager's job is a hard job as it is and it's going to get harder and harder unless we re-address it with a rule change."
Hoddle lost his job as England manager in 1999 after making comments about disabled people for which he later apologised saying they were a "serious error of judgement".
The former Tottenham midfielder had his contract terminated by the FA after comments in an interview were interpreted as suggesting disabled people were being made to pay for the sins of past lives.
Former Football Association chairman David Bernstein believes Hoddle will have plenty to offer, but he expressed concern over the Premier League having no presence on the commission.
"I don't know Glenn Hoddle personally," Bernstein told BBC Radio Five Live. "But clearly he's a real man of football and he's got great football knowledge and I'm sure he'll be helpful.
"I do think it's very important the Premier League are involved in this.
"Any football body or committee trying to make progress in this country without the Premier League has got a bit of a problem.
"The Premier League clearly has quite a few of the answers and a great deal of power.
"I hope the Premier League see fit to send somebody onto this commission.
"I can't believe they wouldn't have been invited. It would be incredible to have a meaningful commission without inviting the Premier League.
"If we're looking at a commission for the greater, wider good of English football then all parties - the Football League, the Premier League, all parties - need to be involved in this, including if Greg (Dyke) thinks it right Glenn Hoddle."

Push your limits – Get out of the comfort zone
Comfort zone is the primary cause for laziness in many people.
Its works similar to the gravitational field. You got to do some real work against it in order to break the barriers and step out of comfort zone.
It always feels happy and comfortable in your current situation but you have to expand your comfort zone to realize your true potential.
You must push your limits to step into the new levels of the comfort zone in order to experience the real fun.
"If you can't, you must. If you must, you can" – by Tony Robbins
I would like to share a real life experience of mine that might help in understanding the comfort zone concept.
It was year 1995. It was my first job as IT trainer. I was sent to a to our corporate office for training.
I reached the training center at about 9:30 am and reported at the front desk. I was very much tensed also was excited.
In about 5 minutes, a woman came from inside and introduced herself as a training manager.
She gave a serious look at me and warned that I was late 30 minutes late. She also said I should never be late again. I clearly understood that she has a very low tolerance for mistakes.
She took me into the office and introduced to the all other new employees who were already there for training.
I soon became familiar with all of them.
I noticed one of the employee was little shy and was barely speaking.
She handed us our training agenda which was already prepared for us.
Later we were told to get into a class room to attend the training lessons.
The first training session took about two hours. We took it easy and casually attended the session.
Once it is done, the training manager came in and handed out some papers and told us that we're going to take a test from the class we just attended.
It was just a shock for all of us. How can anyone expect to take a test immediately after a class and that too without a notice?….
She left the room without even waiting for any answer. When we looked at the questions in the test, we had another shock.
The questions were so complex and demanding. We almost need to reproduce each and every word that was spelled in the lesson we had.
We somehow finished the exam.
She came in again with the corrected answer sheets. By seeing her face, we could easily figure out that she isn't happy and that was true.
Surprisingly,… she hadn't spoken anything.
Later, she called everyone onto the stage and asked me to speak out about the same training session.
We were freaked out.
All of us had same thought in our minds…. "It's impossible to survive this training!"
I myself could see my voice shivering as I tried to teach the lesson.
Later the trainer called the guy who was shy. He had a low voice and was did not do well.
She told him he must learn to speak up.
Our afternoon session wasn't much different. We had to go through another two trainings, then a test followed by our own lecture.
We were told we must to take up the same tests again as we didn't do it well.
By end of the day we were totally exhausted and we got back to our hotel almost by 8 pm.
We were so tired and somehow finished our dinner by 10 pm…. and then,…. guess what?…
… We started preparing for the next day's test.
The next day was completely different.
Unlike the previous day,… surprisingly, we're able to do everything well .
We were able to concentrate well on the lessons, took notes in detail. We also were able understand the topics much better.
By the end of the day, we could see an amazing difference in our confidence levels.
We were ready to face any kind of test and…. we did.
We did very well in the test.
We were able to see some smile on the face of the same lady who wasn't happy at all a day before.
When we were called onto the stage for a lecture, no one hesitated and could reproduce everything.
It's time for the trainee who was shy to get on to the stage. We never saw him talking loud and doubted if can do a trainer job.
It's when, the most shocking thing happened !
It was like a miracle !
The guy from whom we cannot hear even from two feet, amazingly started talking so loud.
Everyone couldn't believe themselves for quite some time. I wasn't hearing the lecture and I didn't think I need to.
I just learned a lesson !
I was just watching how the confidence levels grow with pressure.
I used to believe it takes months to years to make changes in the human behavior.
But, all of this happened in one day!
I was just realizing how to push the limits and step out of your comfort zone.
The only person who did not have change in any feelings is our training manager .
She behaved as if it's quite normal for her.
I am sure the incident changed everyone in the training.
Everyone can step out of comfort zone once it's seriously demanded by the situation.
It is similar analogy to lifting weights.
In the beginning, we start with 10 pounds weight. Within a few days we see our muscles getting stronger gets comfortable to 10 pounds. We need to push ourselves more weight like 15 pounds. If we keep on lifting 10 lb for ever (Comfort Zone), the muscles will never grow. In order for us to continue the muscle growth, we must continuously increase the weights.
So, ….We have to push our limits and keep on changing the weights every few days for us to keep growing.
Things which may seem painful and impossible at first, will become easy with you stepping out of comfort zone.
And it becomes our new comfort zone. We again have to push ourselves to enter the next zone levels.
The cycle should never halt. If it halts, you'll get comfortable and cannot progress further.
Pushing your limits is always directly proportional to your growth.
If you stop it, you'll never be able to know your true potential.

Or to put it in more simple terms he is an ass in need of intensive therapy.
This fraud, this charlatan belongs in an orange jumpsuit.
Well, it´s because he is.
The UK Press - Doing the Job the U.S. Media won´t do.
Same way he´s looked since grade school, except maybe when he was stoned out of his mind.
Not just him. His supporters are nasty and arrogant and hyperpartisan. I´ve never seen such poor winners. It goes beyond gloating into the downright rude. AND they are doing this in unison. How does that happen?
#6, he looks stoned more often than not.
It looks as if the British press is doing the work that the American legacy media is just not willing to do.
In short he looks the same as he always does.
I skimmed the article in the New Republic and there seemed to be a great deal of bloviating (as usual). I can faintly hear the theme from ValJar that he just has not explained his agenda so that normal stupid Americans can understand it. Meanwhile the Obama for Advancing America Forward to Communism team is waiting in the wings to be unleashed. This W.H. seems to think that all it takes is the correct dose of Propaganda and all will be achieved. How rock bottom foolish is that?
#7. It happens because liberals consider this war and are unified. It happens because the Republicans are without leadership, and do NOT recognize the enemy for what it is.
Black hearted soul.
Re: "Barack Obama's imperial tone is badly out of tune with the pessimistic mood of the country, and does not augur well for the next four years."The country´s pessimism will only going get worse as all of Obama´s first and second term policies and regulations reduce our living standards, eliminate jobs and create enormous resentment between those who receive welfare and those struggling to survive on their reduced paychecks. Perversely, more we decline domestically and internationally, the more that we will see and hear of the Obamas, stoking further resentment and pessimism. Today´s laughable story on Obama´s skeet shooting at Camp David will be followed by tales of his hunting exploits, his skinning of deer, his mountain climbing, Kenyan safaris and sky diving. He will surely be the most accomplished, most rugged bisexual to ever occupy the WH.
I´ll be in the minority with this view, but here goes: I think he´s increasingly bitter and hostile because he didn´t want to be re-elected. Lord knows he gave plenty of cues, offering up so many sound bites for the GOP to use against him that I could conclude only that he was either entirely clueless or was intentionally trying to get fired. I think it´s the latter. Being president is real work (not that he shows that) and people outside the kingdom of D.C. actually expect you have, you know, a plan and stuff. To constantly take a defensive tone, to pick issues that are instantly divisive ... yes, it´s arrogant, but it also suggests someone who´s saying, "Don´t you get it, people? I suck at this!" At least he may have stumbled on a way to eventually unite the country: make such stupid decisions and attacks that everyone, including all of Congress, ends up hating him by 2016.
President`s are supposed to have periodic physical examinations s prescribed by law. I`m curious if a psychological exam is included. Obama seems to hate people in general. Nobody with his mean streak an attitude would treat we Americans in this fashion.
In the New Republic article…."..The House Republican majority is made up mostly of members who are in sharply gerrymandered districts that are very safely Republican…"Gerrymandered because the liberals have insisted that there be districts so heavily black that a black congressman was a certainty. That was originally because it was it was said by blacks they could only be represented by persons of their own color. Gerrymandered black districts result in 'gerrymandered' white districts by default.
The man has set himself up as god since he first entered the picture and has had the praises of 95% of the media. His life is a mockery against God. But I take tremendous comfort in the Bible passage: "Be not deceived; God is not mocked. For whatsoever a man sows, that will he also reap." I wait, O Lord, for your judgment against this abomination.
The caption offers a perfect description.
What makes a leftist angry? Losing.What makes a leftist angrier? Winning.
His feelings of invincibility could lead to a foolproof effort to impeach, if anyone up there had the cojones to make it happen. I´m praying for it!
I think he is angry, bitter, mean spirited and annoyed because he thinks there should be no dissent, no criticism, no jokes at his expense, ONLY adoration, praise and wonderment.I loathe this evil person more each day.
I think he is a typical black, thought he could play the race card and stupid people voted for him to show how tolerant and non-racist they were. I have never voted for a dim and never will. There has never been a good or even adequate prez.
Sorry - I meant never have we had even an adequate DIM president.
#15, I had similar thoughts. My conjecture was that the Mooch wanted Obama to go for a second term and he had had enough. That, I suspected, caused a tantrum resulting in that notoriously expensive European tour with her friends while Obama was left to celebrate his birthday with his friends. ("See? I don´t need you--I can have lunch with a king and queen whenever I feel like it.")
As if this is anything new. He is a brainless, hate-filled ideologue, always has been.
He is all of these things and more!
Who´s the bitter clinger now ?He´s just not into it. The thrill was gone after the first election. I assume this was all for ValJar and the Wookie´s agenda.
I agree with #15. He didn´t think he was going to win either. He thought he would be free at last free of his pretend marriage, free of the criticism he feels he shouldn´t be subject to from the right, free from having to act like he cares. He knows the gun thing is a no win for the Democrats. And now he is expressing his thoughts about football which is so ridiculous. He wants to get back with Reggie and have a big fat pension and armed bodyguards and he can whatever he wants. He´s mad as heck that he has to be president but who knows? He might be set free
Does not MATTER what a majority of Americans think in terms of the direction this country is going in. Obama is supremely confident that HE knows better than anyone on ANYTHING.
And as to the Republicans, I watched Fox News Sunday this evening and on the subject of Hillary Clinton, the Republican could not even come out with the fact that she may have traveled miles and miles but she has accomplished very lithe in a world that is in flames as we speak. Yet all I heard was that she had done a wonderful job, etc. WHY are Republicans such fools? Remember when McCaine refused to use the middle name Hussein? When Romney went on and on about how Obama was such a nice man but out of his depth. HE IS NOT A NICE MAN except maybe to his family!
We are seeing the face of evil!
It is sickening that enough people voted for him and enough didn´t vote at all and we are saddled with a vinictive, snide, rude AND ruthless man.He shows not one iota of grace. He demonstrates all the typical mannerism and manners of an arrogant man with pretensions to deity.As i often ended posts in 2008, beware the smile of the tyrant; behind the lips is a bloody maw.We have seen this type stride through history, leaving misery in his wake.
#´s15&29, BOH is a PuppetPresident whose Puppeteer has a well designed game plan thus far working and unchallenged because he´s unknown. Follow the money and you´ll find the MAD MAN WITH THE STRINGS.
Posts 15 & 29 echo what I have thought about Biden. I think he was happy to have been chosen VP, but then he got a look behind the curtain and he has been goofy ever since. I think he was hoping to be fired in the first election.
Frankly, he has not changed one iota since he began his first term. He doesn´t look, he IS.
What do you mean, looks?
Obama had every intention to be re-elected, he is just unleashed now.
That would because 0bama is bitter, arrogant and partisan; always has been; always will be.
The Won is not genetically programed for humility. He has not the character to care about our nation before himself. He lacks the compassion to extend freedom rather than building a state plantation on which all Americans will be forced to live and work for Massa Bureaucrat.Basically, he knows nothing about what it is to be an American. And he convinced over 50% of the uninformed that that´s just fine.
That´s because he is bitter, arrogant and partisan.
hussein is in a hilarious, knee-thumping, inevitable self-destruct mode! Having absolutely no clue as to why "nobody likes him"! Poor chap! Should talk to his gay buddies for solace! No one else cares or give a fat damn!
His job has always been to be the symbolic distraction for blacks as the liberals open the tap for illegals. Economic opportunity in the black community will be limited to professional sports, public employment and hip hop security.
Obama is the product of a low IQ,low common sense electorate,who´s more interested in obama as a celebrity than president.Unemployed liberals think it´s just a matter of time before Obama gets around to creating a dream job for them.In the meantime,they´ll just lounge around the folks house,eat their food and burn their electric.I´d love to know how many parents can´t get their lazy assed kids out of the house to look for a job. The convenient excuse is there´s none out there.Jobs have never been easy to find and employers aren´t going to knock on your door.The left is laying the groundwork to write a new constitution in the next several years. If you want to know what it would look like read kenya´s new one which is pure utopianism.Of course it´s totally impracticable in a backward country like that but it exposes their mindset.
That sneering little Marxist looks exactly like the traitor to this republic that he is.

Blogging From Detroit!
So here I sit in Detroit, a 3 hour layover...Actually, it is not too bad because for the first time in 2 weeks I am sitting at a gate all by myself, just typing with my thoughts. Detroit looks pretty gray and chilly, in fact, my flight from Madison was delayed because they had to "de-ice" the wings. Oh...I am so happy to be going back SOUTH!!
I don't mind the cold..but ice is tricky. I don't mind the snow as long as the sun comes out and the sky goes blue and sunny, but that gray stuff that lingers for days, where it feels perpetually 4pm all day long...that drags on me.
I've had a WONDERFUL time. You know, I got to meet people that I've only known through blogging and internet groups, and it is so fun how they appear just how they do in email. I think conversation and communication really is the key to knowing someone. I felt right at home with these ladies because we have worked on this trip for the past year or so...and it went off without a hitch.
I have my camera card in the computer...but I am having a hard time running the program to get them into a folder and able to edit them down. Pictures may still need to wait until I get home to deal with them, but then again..a lot can be done in 3 hours! There maybe be pictures to this post by the time I am done!
The first thing I can tell you is that I was able to finish the hand quilting on 3am hot flash! The binding is in progress. I packed up a couple of boxes to UPS home so I didn't have to deal with excess baggage. They won't beat me home, but should be there by wednesday, so you'll get pics of that then.
I have started the hand quilting on my crumb-y tulips and that is going fast. I'm quilting it from the BACK because I am quilting with black thread and it is easier to see what the heck I'm doing. I just couldn't see the stitches in the miriad of fabric scraps and crumbs in the front.
(AS I'm sitting here, I'm uploading a slide show to webshots..yeah!)
Here is the first slide show, mostly Illinois, a bit of Wisconsin, all before the Madison retreat.
I have to tell you about the most amazing experience....okay, it was ALL amazing..but I was able to travel to Patsy McClusky's Homestead Retreat.
It really IS an authentic old cabin turned into a wonderful retreat center that sleeps 24! I was able to spend one afternoon sewing before we had to go to Spring Green to do a lecture/trunkshow at Spring Green, Wisconsin. I wasn't sure how many people to expect, we were holding it at Arthur's Restaurant, and like Patsy's blog says..it's the "Middle of NOWHERE." Imagine my surprise when BUSLOADS of quilters started arriving!
Guilds had chartered busses and had a grand time talking and luaghing and singing and visiting from outlying areas to come to our trunkshow! One bus almost hit a deer...so that was quite the talk of the town for a bit, but I also understand that deer are like squirrels out there...everywhere..so we shouldn't have been surprised.
The next morning I had to leave Patsy's at 6am to get to Oconomowoc (And yes, after all this time I have learned how to spell it!) for a class there. I did several guilds in the area, spending from Tuesday morning to Sunday afternoon (today) as the Guest of Cathy and Tom who hosted me in their beautiful home on the lake, fed me full, tucked me into a dark quiet guestroom, and converted me to the wonder of heated floors on a cold wintery morning...ohhhhh! My toes have never been so toasty!
The gals in the Oconomowoc area were wonderful. I feel like I've added new friends to my life! We are thinking of a retreat in 2010...will have to book that on my calendar :c)
Wisconsin Nov 2008
This slideshow includes the Janesville gal's reterat in Madison, and the Oconomowoc workshops....I am SO inspired by the fabrics that everyone was using for the various projects. Several ladies were doing theirs in Christmas fabrics and I thought that was a cool idea. I neer feel like sewing for Christmas until After Thanksgiving, and by then it's too late to really do anything but create a new UFO..so...if you take a class, pull out the Christmas fabrics and away you go!
I really LOVED the Virginia Bound quilts done with the Christmas fabrics..way to go!
Okay everyone..that should catch you up just a bit. I've got another hour or so here in Detroit, but I'm going to walk around, find some dinner (Heaven forbid they feed you ANYTHING on the plane anymore, it's just a beverage) and wing my way home. I am now HOME for a full month before I leave for the Netherlands on Nov 15th! OH happy day...I'm going to S E W !!!! (I am in desparate need of more machine time!)
My best to you!

If you can spell Oconomowoc, I bet you know how to pronounce it too--that means you can be an honorary Wisconsinite. Very cool to see you visiting my back yard: those pictures are from Ben Franklin in Oconomowoc, aren't they?? I had so hoped to be able to attend your lecture for the guild in Wales, but it didn't work out. :-(

Woweee, this one is taking up back a while to the sultry hot days of summer… End of August, in fact. It was a wickedly hot day for Jamie and Mitchell's wedding that was held at the Derrick Golf and Country Club in Edmonton. Hair and make-up ran behind so we only managed to get about 15 minutes of Jamie getting ready before sprinting off to a gorgeous outdoor ceremony. We did photos at the club and spent some time with the lawn tractors… which were pretty special because Jamie and Mitchell met while working maintenance at a golf course. I thought it made for pretty fun photos! The reception was also held at the club and it was just beautiful. I think Jamie and Mitchell had my favourite wedding cake of the whole season… too bad the wickedly hot weather didn't treat the cake too well and it succumbed to the heat and fell over It was such a great wedding and I'm so happy that I was there to capture such a great time!!
Jamie had beautiful blue details… the sapphire earrings, the the blue in her dress… and it went so well with the hot raspberry of her shoes and flowers!
Ok boys, swoon a little for these babies… that's right… Darth Vader and Storm Troopers cuff links! Pretty awesome Star Wars wedding action here!
The flowers from Swish were gorgeous!
The ceremony location was beautiful outside at the Derrick.
Our first glimpse of the beautiful bride!
