Feds label liberty lovers 'terrorists' ... again!
Warns of right-wingers 'suspicious of centralized federal authority'
The government is once again promoting the idea of those who are reverent of individual liberty being terrorists with a new study funded by the Department of Homeland Security.
The study and related data were recently produced by the National Consortium for the Study of Terrorism and Responses to Terrorism, or START, at the University of Maryland. START was launched with a $12 million grant from DHS and is recognized by the organization as one of its Centers for Excellence. In December, DHS announced it was renewing STARTs funding with another $3.6 million.
START recently released a study titled, Hot Spots of Terrorism and Other Crimes in the United States, 1970-2008.
The report noted that nearly one-third of all terrorist attacks from 1970 to 2008 occurred in five metropolitan counties run by Democrats.
The counties were Manhattan, New York, Los Angeles County, Miami-Dade County, San Francisco County and Washington, D.C. The report went on to list groups by ideology such as right-wing, left-wing, religious and single issue.
Interestingly, the report appears to have key data missing when it comes to Islamic terrorism.
On Page 22, Table 4 lists hot spots for religious terrorism by decade. For the 1990s, it shows there was no religious terrorism in New York or Los Angeles and only two terrorist attacks during the 2000s.
Ruth King, writing for Ruthfully Yours, noted that the report apparently does not consider the 1993 World Trade Center bombing to be terrorism. Also omitted was a 1994 shooting by Rashid Baz, who killed 16-year-old Jewish student Ari Halberstam and attempted to murder dozens more in a van on the Brooklyn Bridge.
The report also ignores the 2002 shooting at the El Al ticket counter at Los Angeles International Airport. Following the attack, which killed two and wounded four others, the FBI and Justice Department concluded that the shooter, Hesham Mohamed Hadayet, was an Egyptian terrorist who wanted to be a Muslim martyr.
Also, by cutting the report off at 2007, it was able to omit events such as the Fort Hood massacre by Maj. Nidal Hasan, who killed 13 people and wounded 29 others, and the Little Rock Army recruiting center, where a Muslim convert shot soldiers in front of a recruiting office.
When defining left-wing, START said it wanted to bring about change through violent revolution rather than through established political processes. This category also includes secular left-wing groups that rely heavily on terrorism to overthrow the capitalist system and either establish a dictatorship of the proletariat (Marxist-Leninists) or, much more rarely, a decentralized, non-hierarchical political system (anarchists).
This description would appear to apply to members of Occupy Wall Street, who have called on violence to achieve their means. A speaker at a Los Angeles OWS rally said in to achieve its goals, the organization would need to engage in violence similar to what was done in the French Revolution with mass beheadings. The groups have also received the endorsements of the Nazi and communist parties.
In a video, the speaker said, One of the speakers said the solution is nonviolent movement. No, my friend. Ill give you two examples: French Revolution and Indian so-called Revolution. Gandhi today is, with respect to all of you, Gandhi today is a tumor that the ruling class is using constantly to mislead us, he said. The French Revolution made fundamental transformation, but it was bloody. India, the result of Gandhi, is 600 million people living in maximum poverty. So, ultimately, the bourgeoisie wont go without violent means. Revolution! Yes, revolution that is led by the working class. Long live revolution! Long live socialism!
The report appears to be at odds with the Southern Poverty Law Center which, while listing WND as a hate-group, ignores the Occupy Wall Street movements violence.
However, examples of what START considers to be right-wing include groups that believe that ones personal and/or national way of life is under attack and is either already lost or that the threat is imminent. The report also goes on to describe right-wing terrorists as those who are reverent of individual liberty and suspicious of centralized federal authority.
Under such a definition, the Founding Fathers might have been considered right-wing terrorists.
WND contacted START about the designations and was told, unlike previous reports by other government groups claiming that members of groups such as the tea party are terrorists, the START study was intended to only refer to those who actually committed terrorist acts.
The report also warns defines as terrorists those who want to forcibly insert religion into the political sphere and are opposed to abortion.
This is not the first time a government report has listed conservative groups such as evangelical Christians and tea-party members as terrorists.
WND has reported on how the DHS had previously issued another report listing returning veterans and Christians who believed in end-time prophesies as dangerous right-wing extremists.
A report issued by the Missouri Information Analysis Center warned law enforcement agencies to watch for individuals with bumper stickers for third-party political candidates including Ron Paul, Bob Barr and Chuck Baldwin. It also defined radical ideologies as opposing immigration, abortion and federal taxes.

We like almond milk and honey. Iced Brew the tea bags, then add ice. From our customers Love this tea especially mixed with Chai. I generally use a large coffee mug with 1 chai/1chocolatte'/1regular for the perfect mix. (Recipe by Nannette of Las Vegas, NV)
Wonderful tea that I and my wieght loss patients use regularly to reduce cravings and decrease appetite, as well as just for pure enjoyment.

We start our day with Mate Chocolatte every day. Our life just wouldn't be the same without it!

This is my favorite hot drink, so imagine how excited I was when it came on sale for the holidays! I ended up ordering 8 of the bulk bags and have already gone through 1 1/2 bags. As soon as it turned cooler I found myself enjoying 3 to 4 cups a day, and since I use 2 bags per cup(I like it strong)it is going quickly. It is so calming and relaxing to just sit and have a cup. Nothing better than Chocolatte Matte with a little vanilla almond milk...YUM!

I absolutely love the mate chocolate...It does not compare to any other tea or coffee.
I was searching for a coffee substitute, found this product at my natural foods store, and loved it from the first sip. I had been drinking coffee black since 1970 and adore Indian Malabar, so it takes a robust tea to fill those caffeinated shoes. Mate Chocolatté does just that, and it makes a terrific iced tea as well. I usually drink it straight up; some days I add honey. I am very thankful that you offer the bags in bulk (they go fast!), and am also thankful for your good works. After use, we open and compost the bags.

I kicked the coffee habit after the New Year and this was a great way to do it. I usually double-up on the teabags, though, for a stronger taste. I love that I also don't need to add any sweetener to this.
This is the one that got us started and it remains one of the all time favorites.

Thanks so much for the add! I have no idea how long ago it was, I've been terrible about signing in regularly. Love your paintings!!
Michele, thanks so much for all the stars and the many wonderful and insightful comments, my wife and I really appreciate that you took so much time to look at our work it really means a lot to us.
you are very welcome, well deserved. :) very cool gallery and it was fun to look through! do you both work on the same paintings together? do you have a website where i can see more of your work?
Yes we do work on them together, thanks for asking. Our website is www.RKB-arts.com there is a link for it on our Bluecanvas profile page
Thought of you when I saw this last night... http://www.lightspacetime.com/current-juried-art-competition/
oh so weird, i just saw that on facebook as well last night!!!! i had considered submitting but i'd never heard of the site before...do you know anything about them?
ok...I first noticed their ad here at BC in the events section last month...and when I looked at their site, they seem to have been in operation since at least August 2010. There is a small fee to enter works. They publish winners to FAA, and promote Artists through their monthly competitions which are juried... I am not sure yet by who... I have not seen negative press about them.... and I have viewed beautiful work from international Artists at their site....
...so I bit the bullet and entered their December Seascapes which...as it turned out... one of my works did better than I expected and achieved a fifth placing!
Michele.. I think contests can be a great way to build confidence and raise one;s profile... it always looks great on a CV ... and to potential clients and buyers... xxx
interesting. it's nice to hear a direct experience with them..and congrats on 5th!!!! i'm gonna read up more about them and i may just have to enter....deciding which pieces will be challenging......thanks sooo much for your input on this...i'm always leary with some competitions you see out there....it sounds like they are pretty legit! :)

Hi Michele, Here's some gratitude for you, for this community of artists, and for you on this holiday - for all of us who share in the spirit of Thanksgiving. Hope you enjoy this short video.
...It's about what really matters the most.
I really like your work, it reminds me of early blue and rose picasso works
wow, thanks so much, i appreciate it. i was told once before that my work reminded someone of picasso's work...that's quite the compliment.
Hi Michele, what a wonderful CV (about me). I hope you will realize your dream one day! I am very honoured to be invited to connect. I think many children will love your work, especially teenagers.

A tourist flattened by a Hollywood tour bus. Rival gangs at a drug dealer's funeral. Victims cooked by their killer. Welcome to sunny Los Angeles, where LAPD beat cops and detectives work 24/7 doing jobs that require an arsenal of razor-sharp instincts and quicksilver reflexes. The fallout seeps into the personal lives of the flawed but dedicated officers, who must also cope with new motherhood, a penchant for painkillers, domestic drama and corruption's temptation. But even heroes need heroes, and when two cops are kidnapped, the entire department scrambles to save their own in an explosive series finale. This 2-Disc set contains all 10 provocative, action-packed episodes of The Complete Fifth and Final Season of the highly acclaimed, brutally authentic Southland.
- All seven season 1 episodes, starring The O.C.'s Ben McKenzie.
- Southland: Redefining the Cop Drama – Producers and cast reveal the story behind creating a new series about the LAPD.
L.A. is sandy beaches and Bel-Air mansions and flawless bodies. And it's gangbangers and drug deals gone wrong and apartments crammed with almost as many people as cockroaches. It's Southland, the place where a rookie cop and his savvier, veteran colleagues struggle to make a difference. Here in a 2-Disc Set are all seven Season One Episodes of the gripping, lightning-paced series about the men and women who live their lives – professional and personal – on a jagged edge, taking on criminals, victims and a sprawling city tainted by vice and seething with danger. It's hellish work. But, as one wised-up cop says, "Every once in a while, you get to take a bad guy off the street for good. And that, my friend, is God's work."

Q: What types of cookies are best to mail to soldiers overseas?
A: The cookies could be in transit for two weeks, so bake crisp varieties for your loved ones in the military. They're less susceptible to mold, says Janice Revell, co-founder of StillTasty.com, a site devoted to food safety and freshness. Try these cookies, which will hold up for two weeks in an airtight container.

Q: What are the basic supplies I need to start a scrapbook?
A: First you will need to purchase a few essential crafts tools, including a cutting mat, a craft knife, sharp scissors, a bone folder and a screw punch, if you don't already have them.
A simple good-quality scrapbook will be your canvas. When picking one out, consider factors such as the binding and page count. And choose your materials and palette based on the theme, person or event you plan on commemorating. It's a good idea to find solid and patterned paper that match the items you are archiving.
Because you will be working with small bits and pieces, you should look for fine-tip pens and adhesives (such as a glue pen or roller). Archival or acid-free products are designed to last longer and will preserve your pages. Try using office supplies such as labels for marking dates and locations, or small envelopes for housing keepsakes. Photo corners provide decorative flair while securing pictures in place. Finally, you can add color and texture by incorporating decorative punches, glitter and stickers.

Great games last night, I didn't realise I had joined an 'Event' until some time after I joined, oops.
Nice to meet a good bunch (apart from whoever voted to kick me, whatever I did to upset you I didn't mean it) who enjoy playing the game.

It was good to get in, albeit briefly, after a spate of timing out trying to join, then managing to join and getting stuck in a loop of host migration, despite listening to everyone obviously playing. Thanks to Yaster for his efforts to get me in anyway
Eventually I got in, but I got put 3v8 on attack on security tower... attacking is not the bot's forte lol. Especially when trying take the data from the safe right past you lot's spawn area. We almost had it a couple of times - but there's only so many turrets you can kill before the endless wave get you
Still a few of you got to taste my pimped out Carb-9/scoped AR combo before the session ended (collapsed?) after that game.

The Wednesday Event Presents:
Retro June
"Think of the summers of the past/adjust the bass and let the alpine blast"
I'm not sure if Will Smith had PlayStation 3 in mind when he wrote those lines, especially not in 1991, you know, 16 years before it came out and that, but it fits as whenever summer arrives you can't help but feel nostalgic.
The Wednesday Event is a series of gaming sessions I hold each week in the War and Shoot Em Ups section where I invite players to join me playing the latest games of that particular genre. In the past we have explored (and shot the stuffing out of each other in) the depths of Rapture in Bioshock 2 and have seen New York levelled in Crysis.
I wanted to award everyone by allowing them to vote on 4 classic games to play each week in the month of June and you picked some stoaters, here's the line up:
Wednesday 8th June
Remember the 1950s when England was invaded by a weird rag tag group of oogie boogies? You don't because you're most likely too young and this is an alternative history. Still, the past is the past and that's what we're celebrating this month. Revisit one of the PS3s first online multiplayer shooters on the 8th at 8.
Wednesday 15th June
Duh duh dum dum dum dum dum dum, neeeow. Oh they changed the theme tune didn't they? I know that Warhawk was the game that sold the PS3 to some people and we most certainly have a lot of dedicated fans who played the game religiously back in the day. Who will be first to team kill by accident when they see a red named player and not notice that they themselves are on the red team?
Return to the Eucadian/Chernovan war on the 15th of June with me.
Wednesday 22nd
"When I play as Snake, he dies a lot". I'm sure that Snake has died at the hands of many of us and that we have been subjected to Otacon and Campbells cries on numerous occasions. Just like Warhawk, another massive game on the Official PlayStation community with a large following. Remind yourself of your Konami ID and join me on the 22nd of June.
Wednesday 29th June
Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare - 8pm
More like Retro Warfare! As it's an old game, like the rest of these. At stone cold classic though and one worth going back to. Many PS3 gamers first Call of Duty game, join me in my private game and marvel at how a game in a modern setting can be so nostalgic. A great way to round of the month.

This weeks event:
The Wednesday Event!
Wed 13th July 8pm
For this week's Wednesday Event we are playing Homefront!

The evening will kick off with us all clambering into the one party and me launching the game, simple as that!

SYRACUSE -- A New York prison inmate has come forward with accusations that he was sexually molested as a child by former Syracuse University assistant basketball coach Bernie Fine, starting more than 40 years ago.
The Post-Standard of Syracuse reports that 56-year-old Floyd VanHooser told the newspaper Wednesday that Fine began sexually abusing him when VanHooser was 14 years old.
VanHooser is the fourth man to accuse Fine of sexual abuse. Fine was fired Nov. 27 after a 36-year career at Syracuse after three men said he molested them when they were boys.
Fine has denied wrongdoing.
VanHooser is serving 16 years to life at Clinton state prison for repeatedly burglarizing Syracuse-area homes. He was sentenced in October for being a persistent felony burglar.
VanHooser told the newspaper Syracuse police interviewed him last month at Elmira Correctional Facility, where he was being held before being moved to Clinton in northern New York. He said police told him that his former case worker contacted them and told them they should talk to VanHooser about his relationship with Fine.
VanHooser told the Post-Standard that he was orphaned before he was 13 and lived with Fine on and off for nearly 40 years. He said the sexual contact continued over four decades.
At a press conference on December 7, Onondaga County District Attorney stated his belief in the credibility of Fine's first two accusers, Bobby Davis and Mike Lang. He also questioned the credibility of the third accuser, Zach Tomaselli.
Fitzpatrick referred to a fourth accuser in the Fine case as someone serving a life sentence in prison as a persistent felon, but didn't disclose his name.
"There simply is no victim No. 4," Fitzpatrick said during the news conference. The DA did not release VanHooser's name at the press conference.
Relatives say both of VanHooser's parents died by the time he was 13. VanHooser told the newspaper he lived with Fine on and off for nearly 40 years. He said the sexual contact continued over that period.
VanHooser has listed Fine's former Syracuse address as his own in the past, including on a tax lien from 1999. He also worked for several years at a Syracuse University fraternity house where Fine was an adviser for many years.
VanHooser served state prison sentences for burglaries in 1985, 1998 and 2002 before a judge sentenced him to 16 years to life this fall.
The Associated Press generally doesn't identify people alleging sexual abuse unless they agree to be identified or publicly identify themselves. The Post-Standard reported that VanHooser agreed to have his name published.
VanHooser hasn't responded to a written request from The Associated Press for an interview regarding the accusations against Fine.
(Information from the Associated Press was used in this report).

quote The Masterman1. Do you guys like my new Signature and pic? The characters are supposed to move in the sig but I couldn't get it to work for whatever reason. If anyone could help with that it'd be great.
quote The MastermanYeah that's pretty true. The occasional Kratos or Pusuit were in but it was pretty much just us. Well maybe in a month when it's released in Europe we'll gain some more activity. Till then I guess.
quote Wolverine527And with that,this forum will probably go dead...Unless we start another H&H,but I'm not sure if I want to do that unless more people will be more active. Near the end it felt like it was just you and me The Masterman...

Footage of a rare and secretive long-nosed potoroo tending to her joey at Nadgee Nature Reserve could be a world first for the threatened species.
The minute-long footage was created using over 300 still images taken on a movement sensitive camera and clearly shows the joey leaving and re-entering it's mother's pouch at night.
The discovery has delighted National Parks and Wildlife Service (NPWS) who monitor several hundred sites within Nadgee Nature Reserve and the Ben Boyd National Park using 80 cameras which have collected tens of thousands of images.
Significant recordings have also been made of other native species including the threatened Southern Brown Bandicoots, Eastern pygmy possums, Feathertail gliders and the first ever evidence of threatened Spotted-tailed quolls in coastal heathland.
NSW Environment Minister Robyn Parker released the extraordinary footage to mark Threatened Species Day last Friday.
"This is a threatened species in NSW, it's rare and very secretive, so seeing this mother with a pouch joey leaving and entering the pouch and being groomed is quite exceptional and very touching," Ms Parker said.
"As far as we are aware this is the very first footage of a long-nosed potoroo in the wild providing such information."
National Parks and wildlife Services rangers and staff from the Office of Environment and Heritage returned to Nadgee Nature Reserve this week to continue their research.
Their footage is a highlight on a new threatened species website that went live last Friday www.environment.nsw.gov.au/threatenedspecies
The website contains detailed information and photographs of more than 1000 threatened plants, animals, populations and ecological communities found in NSW, including recordings of animal calls.
It also links with the NSW Wildlife Atlas, which records sightings of our wildlife.
"I'd encourage everyone to use the site to learn more about the threatened species of NSW," MS Parker said.
"You can search your region to find out all about what threatened species are found in the area."

According to Wikipedia a knish is:
My grandmother would plotz if she knew people were frying their knishes! Ive sampled them in both Toronto and New York. Compared to the flaky-crusted, tender knishes Ive been raised on they didnt make the grade but Im sure they appeal to some .an eastern-European Jewish or Yiddish snack food. It is a dumpling covered with a dough shell that is either baked or fried.
Like many Jewish foods popular in North America, knishes were created by eastern European Jews who wanted to add some variety to their humdrum diets. By wrapping dough around kasha (buckwheat) or potatoes they made something new and interesting out of rather mundane ingredients. All inexpensive items, they were staples of the peasant diets. As is common across the world, these inexpensive items are what became traditional foods full of wonderful memories for future generations.
This is how I make my potato and onion knishes. Its not that different from how my grandmother made hers (other than the fact that I let a machine do the hard work). When I take the time to make them, it throws me back to Friday night dinners at Babas house. When knishes were on the menu they were always snatched up by all of her children and grandchildren.
The Recipe
The recipe for Potato and Onion Knishes is located here in RecipeGullet. Step by step directions are included in this thread.
The Dough
Some recipes use puff pastry, some use phyllo, some use a dough made of flour, water and egg that is rolled out with a rolling pin. The best knishes use a stretch dough similar to a strudel dough that is stretched out across large tables as thinly as humanly possible. When you roll the stretch dough around the fillings, you create thin, flaky layers.
Dough ingredients flour, baking powder, salt, eggs, canola oil, white vinegar and warm water.
Place all of the dry ingredients into the bowl of a stand mixer fit with a dough hook and mix briefly. This can be done by hand, but using a machine makes it so much easier. Ive also tried this recipe using a food-processor with a regular blade and it will do if you dont have a mixer.
Form a well in the middle of the dry ingredients and add all of the wet ingredients:
Mix on low until most of the ingredients are combined, then turn the mixer to high and knead for 8-10 minutes:
When the dough has been kneaded enough, it should be smooth and you should be able to see little bubbles beneath the surface of the dough (unfortunately the photo doesnt allow you to see this):
If you are not using a stand mixer, use a spoon or your hands to get everything mixed together. Next, I was taught, you must slap the dough onto a counter 100 times, giving it the occasional kneading. (I told you the mixer was an easier method).
Divide the dough in two, and form into two balls. Cover each with plastic wrap and let it hang out for at least an hour, relaxing at room temperature.
While the dough is resting, prepare the filling.
The Fillings
The best thing about a knish is that you can fill it with many different things. Let your imagination run wild. The most common (and one of the best) fillings is potato and onion. Onions sautéed until a deep golden brown adding a caramelized sweetness to the boiled potatoes. Add some vegetables (spinach and mushrooms are two popular choices) or cheese (cheddar mixed with potato or cottage cheese on its own), maybe some kasha (buckwheat) or grind up some chicken or liver for a meat version.
Potato and Onion Filling
My preference is for red potatoes and yellow cooking onions. As a general rule, I find baking potatoes too dry. The problem is that sometimes reds are too wet! 9 times out of 10 I use straight red potatoes but if I know that they are especially wet, Ill add a couple of bakers to lower some of the moisture content.
Cook onions in oil or schmaltz for 30-35 minutes over medium to medium high heat. I use a non-stick pan as I have a tendency to walk away and do something else but use whatever you like. The onions should turn a deep, dark brown without burning. They wont start to brown for at least 15 minutes if you find them browning much before that, turn the heat down. Stir every 1-3 minutes, making sure that nothing is burning at the bottom of the pan.
While the onions cook, place the peeled potatoes into a large pot with cold water. Cover and place over high heat bring to a boil, lower heat and simmer until the potatoes are fork tender. Drain the potatoes very well and mash. I prefer a potato masher over a food mill or ricer because I like the final knish to have some small potato chunks (I want to know theres real potato in there!).
Add the deep brown onions, salt, black pepper and garlic powder.
Mix everything together, taste and adjust seasoning. Make sure you can taste the seasoning youre going to wrap a dough around this that will suck out some of the flavour.
Cool (but dont chill) and proceed to the next step.
Stretching and Forming
When I was young, my grandmother and great-aunts would place a clean, beautiful linen cloth on the kitchen or dining room table to stretch there dough on. We no longer use the linen finding it easier to stretch the dough if it is actually able to stick a little to the table.
First you must roll the dough into a long rectangle:
Start to gently stretch the dough. Place your hand under the edge of the dough and gently pull towards you. Work your way around the table, pulling in every direction.
The dough will probably tear in places thats ok. Just try to avoid any really large holes.
I like to gently hit the dough/table with an open palm as I stretch, to stick the dough to the table and keep it from rolling back over itself.
All stretched out:
Use a paring knife to trim the thick dough on the outer edges:
Here is a close-up of the stretched dough I hope you can see the little bubbles that have formed in the dough this is good:
Place a row of filling about 1- inch from the edge of a long side of the dough Use ½ of the filling youve made. (For a small, hors douevres size knish, cut the dough in half lengthwise then place a much smaller row of filling along the edge and proceed.):
Start pulling the edge of the dough up and over the filling:
Continue to roll the filling in the dough, gently pulling the rope towards you stretching the dough a little more, until you have one long rope:
Pinch the rope where you would like to cut the dough. This is where you decide how large youd like the knish to be:
Then twist the dough where you want to cut it:
Then use the side of your hand to saw the knish off of the rope:
Continue to do this until the entire rope has been cut up:
This is a pre-shaped knishes that has been well cut and just needs to be shaped:
Heres a knish that didnt cut quite as well. You need to stretch the dough over the edges and pinch them together if this happens or you can use a piece of scrap dough to help cover holes:
Whether it had to be patched, or it was well cut, you still need to pinch both the top and the bottom, to ensure that the holes stay closed:
Press down to create an indentation in the middle of the knish:
All trayed up and ready for the oven the ones on the right have some sautéed mushrooms on them (they also have sautéed mushrooms mixed into the potato/onion mixture):
Into a 350º convection oven (375º conventional). They will bake for 15-25 minutes depending on your oven. Always check them after 15 minutes and see how theyre doing. Theyre done when golden brown.
(If some of them split a little as they bake, gently push the filling back in.)
A view from the inside (the picture doesn't quite do justice to the skin, but I think it gives you an idea of the layers):
Helpful Hints
Once all of the kneading is done, the dough can be used for later use. Place each dough on a baking sheet lined with parchment, freeze then wrap well with plastic or place in a freezer bag. Pull them out of the freezer the night before you want to use them and thaw, on a baking sheet covered in plastic wrap. A couple of hours before you need them pull them out of the fridge and let them come up to room temperature then stretch away
Knishes are also great frozen as long as you freeze them before you bake them. Freeze them in a single layer on a baking sheet lined with parchment when theyre frozen transfer to a freezer bag or container. Pull them out as you want them and bake them no need to thaw. The cooking time for frozen knishes wont be all that different from fresh maybe an additional 5 minutes.

Get moving and improve your health
By Donald Hensrud, M.D.

We all know it's important to be physically active. However, knowing and doing are 2 different things and putting that into practice in our daily lives can be challenging.
Physical activity can be divided up into exercise and activities throughout our daily lives. As discussed in our book "The Mayo Clinic Diet", any activity is good activity. Whether it's exercise, walking, taking the stairs, whatever — it's all good. It helps us burn calories, decrease our health risks, and feel better along with many other benefits.
Some recent studies have provided us with new information about the health risks of being sedentary. One study ("Journal of the American College of Cardiology", Jan. 18, 2011) totaled up all the time that people spent sitting while watching television, working on a computer, etc, over a period of years. In this study and others, the people who sat the most had the highest risk of heart disease and dying — a pretty important outcome.
What was most fascinating, however, was that this was true regardless of how much exercise someone did. In other words, even among people who exercised, those who sat the longest had higher mortality.
What does this mean? Let's say 2 people exercise vigorously 5 days per week for 30 minutes per session; a good amount of exercise by anyone's standards. One of these people has a desk job and sits most of the day. The other one is in sales and is on their feet most of the day. According to these new studies, the person who is on their feet most of the day has fewer health risks even though they both exercise the same amount.
We all know we should try to be active some of the time. But this new information suggests we should also try to not be sedentary the rest of the time. And while they sound the same, technically they aren't. How can we do this?
Well, certainly continue to exercise. If you have a desk job, consider taking frequent breaks to stand and move around. When talking on your cell phone, for example, stand up and move about. If you have to meet with someone, consider a walking meeting.
Perhaps the most important thing to do at home is not sit in front of the television for hours on end. Standing and minimally moving around burns 2 1/2 times more calories than sitting. As I'm typing this, I'm getting used to standing at my desk (and thinking about how I can raise it higher!). Awareness is the first step in solving any problem. Realize it's important to both move and not sit around. Both of these strategies will help burn calories, manage weight, and improve health. Please share your ideas.

College Makes Changes In Wardlaw-Smith-Goza Conference Center Funding
Aug 9th, 2011 | By Submitted | Category: EducationNFCC's Historic Conference Center Remains Open To The Public
The Wardlaw-Smith-Goza Conference Center is now operating as a self-supporting enterprise that no longer receives financial support from North Florida Community College's general operating budget. The shift in funding was approved by the NFCC District Board of Trustees and considered a necessary change as the college prioritizes expenditures amidst another year of reduced state funding. A special announcement regarding the change was sent to NFCC's "Friends of the Mansion" members in June.
"Over the years, Friends of the Mansion members have made monetary donations, volunteered time, and shown a great love for NFCC's historic conference center," said Maria Greene, WSG Conference Center Coordinator. "We are making changes, but our annual membership drive is currently underway and we continue to hold events, weddings and tours in the Mansion. It's business as usual for now as we look for ways to build extra revenue."
Greene is looking as far ahead as June 2012 with her current budget and needs the continued support of donors and the community. According to NFCC President John Grosskopf, the College is also actively seeking partnerships or alternative solutions that can keep the WSG Conference Center open to the public; even if that means taking NFCC out of the equation.
"NFCC is very proud of its tenure as the primary steward of this very important local treasure; however, we are now in a position where we must align all of our resources to the fulfillment of our primary mission, and we cannot continue to fund this endeavor," said Grosskopf. "We will be working to find our successor to take over from here."
The Wardlaw-Smith-Goza Conference Center, listed in the Historic American Building Survey and the National Register of Historic Places, was built in 1860. NFCC purchased the WSG Conference Center property in 1988 through a Florida legislative appropriation to preserve and use it as a conference center for the six rural counties which the College serves.
Many of the antique furnishings and accessories inside the Mansion are loaned or donated by individuals within the area and according to Greene, these items will be handled with the upmost respect in regards to the donor or owner, whatever the future brings for the Mansion.
"The Mansion has become a valued icon in our community, full of history and character," said Greene. "I appreciate all the community support, especially our Friends of the Mansion members, and ask for continued support and feedback as we work to build the future of the Wardlaw-Smith-Conference Center."

This recipe was sent to us by Tiffany from Atlanta whose mother made this dish before her. Although she baked her version, we prefer to cook ours on the stovetop for a more traditional slump. Drizzle servings with cream or top with dollops of crème fraiche, if you...
Set this meal to cook early in the day and you won't have much to do to prepare dinner in a hurry. Sage and stuffing satisfy that craving for holiday flavors any time during the season.
This seasoned yogurt mixture featuring the flavors of traditional Tandoori chicken provides a savory taste that pairs wonderfully with your favorite fruit chutney.
This hearty stew offers rich flavor at an approachable price. Warm pieces of naan bread make the perfect accompaniment.
Tart-sweet and pleasantly spicy, this fresh strawberry and green onion salsa is the perfect match for just about anything, including grilled fish and chicken.
A basic bar recipe that yields ten naturally sweet, filling snacks for a pittance! Made primarily from dates they're dairy-free and low in fat and sodium, with no added sugar.
Shepherd's pie was originally created as a means of using up leftover Sunday roast, so it's traditionally made with ground beef or lamb. We created this recipe as a hearty vegetable dish suited for holiday gatherings, although as it turns out, this dish is popular...
These baked custards are perfect for entertaining, as they can be made ahead of time and chilled until ready to serve.
Leftover roasted chicken and turkey can be beautifully disguised in these enchiladas, which are topped with tangy prepared salsa verde. Thanks to canned enchilada sauce, this Mexican-inspired baked main course is easy to throw together even on busy a weeknight.
Earthy burdock, a firm root long popular in Asia, adds flavor to this dish's hearty stuffing. Leave it unpeeled to enjoy its full flavor.
Tender lamb seasoned with cilantro, cinnamon, ginger and saffron joins chickpeas, dates, oranges and almonds in this classic Moroccan dish. "Tagine" refers to slowly simmered meat, fish and vegetable dishes that have both a sweet and savory flavor.
Inspired by the chile- and salt-sprinkled pineapple found in the fresh fruit stalls of Mexico, this melon salad is delightfully refreshing. Lime juice and chili powder enhance the sweetness of summer melon while fresh mint adds a cool finish.
The attractive contrast of mixed greens and orange melon is just a prelude to the refreshingly light flavor of this simple summer salad. Chewy dried cherries and crunchy toasted pecans add flair and texture to the smooth tofu and balsamic vinaigrette.
Traditional ceviche is a popular Peruvian dish featuring raw fish marinated in lemon juice. In this vegetarian version, jalapeño, lime, cilantro, garlic and ginger add a spicy kick while coconut milk and tofu provide a soothing, creamy counter-balance.
Tender young pumpkin stuffed with wild rice and cranberries makes for a fun and tasty dish. Serve as a light lunch or with an entrée of your choice, a fresh green salad, and a glass of dry rosé or white wine for a beautiful fall dinner.
Making your own ranch dressing is surprisingly easy. Your salads will thank you!
Halved grape tomatoes and avocados join onions, parsley, cilantro, lemon juice, extra-virgin olive oil and sea salt in this perfect side dish or simple appetizer with tortilla chips.

Hi matey.
After much neglect I have finaly gone through your SB and I find that "Hey!" another one in the same boat as me, I was in at the start of all this technology crap too in the 80's and mullets. Only with me it was computers, mixing desks and recording studio equipment and it was ok while it lasted.
I dont know how it was for you mate but suddenly (it seems) I find myself hurtling at 50 years old and wondering where the hell life went! But I leep telling myself this is what I want to do! improve my art more and more, because of my love of it and there is no heavy lifting involved! ha ha ha ha.
can you please break out your pencils, pens and pixels and post some more inspiration please, thanks and all the very best to another apprentice crinkly person (scary thought isnt it!?).

Awesome art, awesome story, awesome humor = awesome sletchbook. Your latest post in the WIP showcase about being a banana had me laughing out loud.
Please post some updates.
Your use of light and shadows to define shapes is fantastic. I don't know if I'm explaining myself well but your art has a solid feeling to it, like if I touch it I'd actually feel the object or person, I'm talking about the colored pieces like the one in post 3 and 8 and the keyboard on 17.

Hey Stoat,
thanks for taking the time to help me out in my struggle with light/shadow.
Great work you've got in here btw - very good quality stuff all round.
Funny how life turns out sometimes, eh? Ah well, sounds like you've had a good time so far, I'm sure you'll be having good times in the future as well.
I sincerely hope so, anyway. Cheers.

I also appreciate the mini autobiography at the beginning... It comforts me, as a young'un, that I'm not quite sure where I'm going after I graduate, 'cos, well, you never know what'll change.
Thanks for checking out my WIP! I am definitely going to push myself harder now.

Hey, thanks for sharing your life story. Even if it's not the same history as mine, it gives me hope and inspiration for my own future. After many years working with other things and listening to others who has told me whats's right or what's not, I recently decided to do what I always wanted to do. So that's why I'm here on CA, wanting to learn more about art/techniques and meeting others with the same interest.
Then I have to tell you that I admire your sketches and oil paintings, they are so good!
Now I just have to get started myself...much work to do!
Best regards
Whoa...Beautiful sketches.... Your lines are stunning...I especially loved your self portrait.. That was badass.... Why wasn't there an explosion in the background? that would have been nice...very nice..
Time to move this sketchbook up on top again.
Your art - awesome, whether it's the old stuff or the new. I think what separates your work from many others I've seen here on CA, mind blowing as they are, is that your work make me think of old masters (I'm a noob, so it's a nooby opinion). It's full of life and dynamic and just great no matter which media you use.
Your story - wonderful, and I hope you haven't abandoned neither your sketchbook, nor your art.
BTW - Good way to tell it's a female hiding behind and alias on an art site - plenty of animals in the sketchbook (yup, a very sexist and completely biased opinion, but so far I haven't found much contradicting it), boobs though, are more or less optional.
Please, post more. Your work is inspiring. The pencil and ink figures are my favorites - lovely lines. I'd like to see some more current works!

STEUBEN COUNTY, N.Y. -- A judge has ruled all statements are admissible in the case of a Steuben County man accused of shooting at police in Hornellsville last September.
Richard Vangorden was charged with attempted murder, criminal possession of a weapon, and reckless endangerment.
In a Huntley hearing Tuesday, State Police said troopers attempted to pull Vangorden over when he refused to stop. They said he drove toward troopers head on, swiped a patrol vehicle, and kept going until he shot at them.
Vangorden was taken into custody following a standoff in Wellsville. Police used tear gas to get him out of the home. Vangorden later told police he didn't want to kill anyone. He just didn't want to deal with police and that he didn't want to lose his girlfriend, since there were warrants out for her arrest at the time.
His attorney said the tear gas could have impaired him but the judge ruled otherwise.
Terrence Baxter, Vangorden's Attorney said, "I think it's extremely difficult to get into another person's head after having being subjected to those types of compounds if you will to determine whether or not the person is voluntarily providing this information."
Brooks Baker, Steuben Co. District Attorney said, "There wasn't much question in our mind that the police had done the right thing here in getting these statements. They were extremely attentive to the defendant's rights and his needs during the process. So we were pleased with the ruling."
A trial date has been set for July 30th.

Protective Factors
Efforts to improve child and adolescent health have typically addressed specific health risk behaviors, such as early initiation of sexual intercourse, tobacco use or violence. However, results from a growing number of studies suggest that greater health impact might be achieved by also enhancing protective factors that help children and adolescents avoid multiple behaviors that place them at risk for adverse health and educational outcomes.
Protective factors are individual or environmental characteristics, conditions, or behaviors that reduce the effects of stressful life events. These factors also increase an individual's ability to avoid risks or hazards, and promote social and emotional competence to thrive in all aspects of life, now and in the future.
