Since then, I have gone back with some brush-on gloss to make his slimy flesh and luminescent cave-slime glisten, as well as the green crystal tendrils on his staff. I wasn't sure about glossing the flesh, but Fieldarchy suggested I give it a try so I went ahead and did it (seen her minis; who am I to argue?). Anyhow, here are some more pix of the finished product. There's a good chance this guy will be TPK'ing my D&D players' party this coming Thursday - wish them luck!
The mini:
The base (HirstArts tiles, drilled-out Reaper skulls, and some white glue & model railroad sand for the slime):
Anything that may help me improve my skills can't help but help. So if you see anything you think I could have done better, please let me know what it is and how I could have improved it
Hope you liked it; thanks for looking,

Thanks, Beo'. Yeah, some of the highlights (especially in the blue of the cloak's liner, which was much brighter originally) got a bit lost in multiple botched Dullcote layers (upon layers), though even without the sealer overdose fiasco I suspect you'd have a fair point there. Still trying to master the smooth transitions and all... 'Above average' is as much as or more than I could hope for, really, given the small number of pieces I've actually completed since I got back into gaming & minis roughly around Y2K.I like the Slimy effect on the face/head. A solid job all around. I think the blending at the end of the tenticles realy sells the model. I think the only thing I would change is adding more drastic highlights as the rest of the paintjob seems kind of flat. In all a very solid above average paint job.
Thanks again for the comments,

Thanks all, I'm blushing... Maybe next time I won't chicken out on the OSL & NMM...
V.V. - Glad you like the base - the munched-out victims' skulls, despite one of them unfortunately seeming to float just above the ground, are one of my favorite parts of this mini, though I think I had a better photo of them in my WiP thread, since you could make out the inside edge of both skulls in that one - you can only really see it on the Dwarf skull in these pix. You really like the freehand? It's actually tied with the "NMM" (I'm making sarcastic quotey motions with my fingers there) armbands he's wearing for my least favorite part of this guy, though I'm not completely disappointed. I had something more elaborate in mind at first, as well as less... pink. My first freehand attempt ever though, so I guess I can give myself a pass on that one... At least it gave me a chance to use one of my Micron pens.
L.C. - Do you mean the slime on the base (gooey, glowing cave-shrooms), or the slime on his head/hands? The latter looks as thick & viscous as it does as a lucky end result of many too many layers of 3 kinds of spray sealers followed by a generous helping of uthinned brush-on gloss from a damp brush. I guess it turned out for the best in the end, but man oh man was that whole Dullcote problem I had (see WiP and Tips&Advice threads linked above) ever annoying for a while there. The former is a bit of model railroad sand covered over then built up with multiple layers of white glue, painted, then brushed with the same acrylic gloss.
F.A. - As for my lighting, yeah, it could be better (you should have seen some of the shots I didn't bother posting!). I took these on my painting desk, which is lit by daylight-spectrum fluorescent tubes a couple of feet above the desk's surface. I also used a couple of lamps with daylight incandescent bulbs, one on each side and as close as I could get them without being in-frame, but one of the lamps has no reflector and the other has a broken spring-clamp and is therefore difficult to keep from falling off the desk, much less reposition. I know I need to hit Wal-Mart and pick up a couple of cheap gooseneck lamps with proper reflectors or something. If I can find some compact fluorescents that come in daylight colour, I figure they'd almost have to be brighter than the cheapo incandescents I'm currently using. If there's any other way I can improve my photos (or painting), I'd be grateful for any tips.
Legion - Note, I'm actually hoping it won't be a TPK; I already dropped, like, 20 bucks on the BBEG mini for their next adventure, after all!

W.L. - Thanks, I'm really glad you and a few others seem to be getting a bit of a kick out of this guy. Anything here you'd like to see done better, though? As I've mentioned, the big challenge for this piece was really to get most of the mini to stop looking slimy. Since you mentioned the base (I think I mentioned this in my WiP thread but IIRC I didn't provide any links), for the stone texture of the base, which is made of HirstArts tiles cast in dental plaster, I used a technique I learned a few years back from Laszlo J's website, more or less (some great tips there, BTW - this one is under Advanced/Granite). It's really easy to do; all you need is an old toothbrush and some white, grey, and black paint. Just don't try to do it with an already-painted mini on top - unless you're painting a stone golem! I actually had the whole base built and painted before I had done anything with this mini other than to deblister him and saw off his original broccoli base so I could do a test-fit to determine how best to position the fungus pools and trephinated skulls.
Legion - LOL, too true, especially given how slow I work (although we use a point-buy system for ability score generation)... But if the PCs' brains are all too busy decorating this guy's innards, who's gonna drag their bodies back to the temple to get Raised in time to save the world from the Age of Worms?

"Boy Interrupted" A Young Man's Suicide
by Susan Moreno on Aug. 06, 2009, under bi-polar, brain disorders, depression, General Mental Health, Health, health care reform, homeless, insurance, Life, mental illness, parity, Politics, recovery, schizophrenia, stigma, Suicide, teen suicideI watched this beautifully put together HBO documentary on Monday night.
Mournful and emotional, "Boy Interrupted" is about a mentally ill boy who committed suicide when he was only 15 years old. Having experienced the same tragedy, I really wanted to see how the story could be told without being exploitative or sensationalized. They couldn't have done a better job……..the parents put the film together. Both of them are in the film industry, but a good part of the documentary was made from actual "home" movies that they and that Evan, their son had personally filmed. Some of the clips even give you a sense of how difficult life for Evan was when he was struggling with his bi-polar illness that wasn't diagnosed until he was eight years old. Eight years old??? I'm sure you're thinking that's incredibly young…..and it is. But, it happens. And in Evan's case, he started threatening suicide as early as age five.
His parents did everything they could to get Evan help. Finally by age 10 he was experiencing some normalcy in his life with the help of medication, therapy and family and academic support. Tragically, at age 15 when all seemed to be going well he ended his life by jumping from his bedroom window several floors up. He left a note explaining how disconnected he felt…….something many 15 year old boys will experience. But, for Evan his sadness was overwhelming and his bi-polar illness prevented him from facing another day. In my case, I always say, schizophrenia took my son. – I know he wouldn't have purposely "ripped my heart out."
According to the National Alliance on Mental Illness about one in ten children have a serious mental or emotional disorder, but fewer than half receive any mental health services in a given year. Over half of students with a mental disorder age 14 and older drop out of high school – the highest dropout rate of any disability group and many of the teenagers that have a mental disorder "self-medicate" with illegal drugs. Despite effective treatment, there are long delays, sometimes decades, before people seek and receive treatment.
These are pretty grim statistics, but I'm hopeful. As I have said before, I see people every day that have achieved mental health recovery. It's something they have to work on- every day, and who knows, maybe one day we'll find a cure or at least something to stop someone from wanting to end their life. Suicide causes unimaginable pain for those left behind.

All right -- a good question will Yahoo!'s CEO Scott Thomson survive.
Lying on his resume we talk about the yesterday a top Yahoo! shareholder -- Monte Thompson be fired immediately Elizabeth MacDonald the deferred last on this story.
We've got breaking news period there it -- top investor in Yahoo! outside investor Daniel Loeb.
Doesn't want to be on the board he's not -- asking to for the board to fired this CEO.
Of Yahoo! but also board director Patricia heart for pay picking her resonate as well.
And it's a withering scathing letter again this is breaking news essentially he's saying look.
Not just -- investigation should be conducted you should get rid of these two -- in it to call it inadvertent.
That he faked his resonates -- -- a computer sciences degree when nearly an accounting degrees is insulting to shareholders also the height of arrogance.
And he's saying is such -- he wants to be has the right to be on the board at Yahoo! for some time now.
Anybody defending -- and you know the dollars coming out defending and saying he is qualified in fact you know he was -- tech top tech officer PayPal.
And also -- -- but for now to top executives of Yahoo! to be under fire.
Is a big deal for a company whose stock has been flat on -- between ten and twenty bucks.
For four years never never Microsoft want to buy Yahoo! for 33 bucks a share so if Daniel -- wins this fight.
Who knows that Yahoo! could turn around his and again wanted to be on that work for some time so it's also adding to some extent it's not it's another thing as.
As -- we -- signs SEC documents or you put yourself out there as saying you know you -- certain degree.
You know but other executives haven't fired in the past and that has certainly happened at RadioShack and her down -- somewhere in the in the I'm not sure I think this is going to be a real.
Two problematic -- and had survived.
But again other CEOs and other top executives have been fired for the same offenses as CFO of -- software and also got -- -- in Catholic.
Yes excuse me RadioShack 2006 Dave Edmondson resigned in -- stake in his threats.
More to come on this story -- Loranger thank you very much you can't live in the same -- we're kind of figure.

Plovers prefer to breed in upland habitats composed of bare ground or sparse vegetation, and on the eastern plains of Colorado use shortgrass prairie grasslands with and without black-tailed prairie dogs (Cynomys ludovicianus) and agricultural fields, particularly dryland.
The CPW has cooperated with other agencies (U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, U.S. Geological Survey, Colorado Farm Bureau, Colorado Natural Heritage Program) on research suggesting that nest survival rates among the shortgrass prairie habitats is similar.
Additionally, the CPW has continued to investigate other aspects of the plovers' breeding ecology, including chick survival, by tracking radio-marked adults as they raise their broods. Research findings have suggested that survival of chicks and their movement activity after hatching do differ between the shortgrass prairie habitats. However, more detailed information on chick survival and ecology requires the ability to monitor individual chicks from hatching through fledging.
The CPW has being using radio telemetry to gather information on species such as deer, elk, and lynx. Only within the last few years have miniature-sized radio transmitters (≤ 0.35 grams) been developed to allow use on a 10 gram newly hatched mountain plover chick. Prior to using in the field to study mountain plover chick ecology, the CPW needed to determine the best method to attach transmitters to plover chicks, and whether transmitters appeared to have any negative impacts on the survival, growth, or activity of growing chicks.
In the spring and summer of 2007, the CPW conducted a captive study to evaluate the impacts of transmitters and explore alternative transmitter attachment techniques using surrogate species including bobwhite quail (Colinus virginianus), chukar (Alectoris chukar), and killdeer (Charadrius vociferous) chicks from ≤2 d to >42 d post-hatch. Quail and chukar chicks were commercially available and allowed for replication of attachment methods on growing individuals. Killdeer were included based on close similarities in size, morphology, and growth rates to mountain plovers. Killdeer are also more abundant than mountain plovers and other successful studies on captives have aided in conservation of other plover species (e.g., Piping Plover).
This portion of the study examined four different types of transmitter attachment techniques; sutures, tissue glue, silicone glue, and leg harness. The experiment was conducted on one species at a time starting with quail, followed by chukar, then killdeer. With each species, each attachment technique was evaluated and refined for use on the next species.
Results suggested that the leg harness attachment technique is a suitable method with minimal to no observed impacts on survival of all three species. However, the timing of tail feather development differs between killdeer (~ 2 d old) and plover chicks (> 20 d old).
In 2008, chick survival and growth were compared between a group of 8 killdeer chicks and 1 mountain plover chick fitted with transmitters using a leg harness attachment, and a control group of 3 killdeer and 1 mountain plover chick with no transmitter. Growth and survival of chicks was similar between the two groups, suggesting that using chick transmitters attached with leg harnesses is a viable method for future studies of mountain plover chick ecology.
The CPW plans to initiate a new field study on cause-specific mortality of mountain plover chicks in 2009. Read the Avian Research Program Annual Progress Report for the latest information.

The study uses data from color banded individuals and stable isotopes. Stable isotopes are a relative new methodology and their efficacy is not well understood. The research derives a modeling framework to better reflect the state of knowledge about staple isotopes.

HBO forces Netflix to go elsewhere for its DVDs
HBO has stopped providing DVDs of its shows to Netflix as competition between the two companies heats up. The move, however is unlikely to disrupt rentals of HBO discs because Netflix can still acquire the DVDs from other sources.
HBO, the powerhouse entertainment channel known for such shows as "The Sopranos," "Six Feet Under," and "True Blood" stopped providing the discs, which it made available at a discount, as of January 1, according to sources who spoke to CNET.

We have decided to use Lightspeed in all the schools...the REDCAT proved to be a great option for the schools and the State Department staff is very pleased about the project
B. Hunter - Superintendent, Alabama
Classroom audio systems have more impact on student learning than any other single piece of technology in the district.
L. Hicok - Principal, Iowa
Words cannot express my satisfaction with the REDCAT sound system. It not only impacted a hearing impaired student, but all of my first graders became more attentive listeners and learners as a result of this product.

TUALATIN, Ore.--(
)--Lightspeed Technologies is pleased to introduce the latest in classroom audio technology. The new REDCAT® all-in-one classroom audio system is a simple, compact unit designed for quick set up on a shelf or wall. The new REDMIKE™ is the smallest and lightest infrared microphone in the industry at only 2.1 ounces, and is designed specifically for the teacher's comfort and ease of use.
The REDCAT classroom audio system allows the teachers instruction to be clearly heard throughout the learning environment, strengthening the teacher-student connection. Research outcomes include increased 'on-task' times and higher academic performance for students, and better classroom management and reduced vocal fatigue for teachers.
A key component of the REDCAT design is the NXT®* flat panel speaker. Lightspeed and NXT engineers have merged technologies with impressive results. A single NXT speaker provides clear audio and excellent sound distribution throughout the classroom. Another NXT advantage is its capability to enhance the voice frequency range creating a high degree of speech intelligibility. This type speaker is ideal for the learning environment and Lightspeed is the only classroom audio manufacturer utilizing this state of the art technology.
"A barrier that often keeps schools from implementing this effective instructional technology is the cost of installation" says Bruce Bebb, MarCom Director at Lightspeed. "Educators have been asking for a simple solution for classroom audio for several years. Installing speakers, sensors and amplifiers may make sense for new construction projects, but can be an expensive hassle for existing classrooms. The REDCAT's unique all-in-one design requires no installation, meaning major cost savings, easy adoption and immediate results."
Shirley Dornback, an Audiologist at Richardson Independent School District in Richardson, Texas, has already started implementing the systems in her district. "The REDCAT offers something that other companies haven't been able to - an all in one system - with only one speaker that fills the room with equal sound. It is a high quality product and makes great fiscal sense."
An added benefit is the capability to route any audio source through the REDCAT. Laptops, CD players and iPods can be amplified quickly and easily through the system. The REDCAT delivers clear audio, excellent sound distribution and high speech intelligibility that engages students and allows the teacher to be more effective.
Lightspeed has been designing classroom audio systems for over 15 years and is considered an innovator in classroom audio technology. For more information contact Lightspeed Technologies at 800.732.8999 or visit www.Lightspeed-tek.com.

"It feels good to win here at Barber and I'd like to thank my Yoshimura Suzuki crew and also thanks to Suzuki for the GSX-R1000," said Yates, who with this win moves from third- to second-place overall in the Superstock points standings.
Yates' Superstock weekend started positively on Saturday afternoon, with the Georgian qualifying third on the grid after posting a best lap time of 1:26.276 on his Yoshimura Suzuki GSX-R1000.
"I just feel really comfortable on the Superstock bike," said Yates of his qualifying time. "The Yoshimura Suzuki GSX-R1000 has a good feel for me and my riding style. It accelerates really well off turns and going uphill, which works well here at Barber."
The 17-lap race itself was an exciting one, with Yates getting a rough start and then moving quickly into third position. Charging hard, Yates slowly reeled in the leaders and took over second place. Then, on the last lap, the defending AMA Superstock Champion made his move and took over the lead and the win.
"It took me a few laps to get into the groove, but I was pushing the whole race," said Yates. "I was trying hard but also trying not to burn out the Dunlop tires because I knew the race would come down to the last laps. For California Speedway next weekend, we're going to go hard and try to keep the Yoshimura Suzuki on two wheels and win a championship or two."

Helvetia, WV Fasnacht | |||
Fasnacht is the pre-lenten burning of Old Man Winter. It occurs on the Saturday before Ash Wednesday and is likened to Mardi Gras. It has its roots in the Swiss Winterfest.
Saturday afternoon features food, beverages, and open mic music in the Star Band (Red) Hall, a buffet at the Hutte restaurant, and browsing in the local shops. At 8:00 p.m., a parade featuring large, often frightening, and quite artistic masks travels from the Red Hall to the Community Hall where the costumes are judged and the square dance begins. At midnight the efigy of Old Man Winter is cut down from the ceiling of the Community Hall, carried on the shoulders of the celebrants to the bonfire outside, and burned to signal the end of Winter. The warming effect is not immediate and visitors should wear plenty of clothing so they can enjoy the outdoor activites. A typical schedule is:
The Fasnacht Mask Museum preserves masks and information about them. There are a number of links to Fasnacht pages. It has been covered by local and national media. |

Fiery Stephen Jackson Leading Young Bucks
Posted By Derek Page On January 17, 2012 @ 5:00 am In All,Main Page,NBA | No Comments
Since coming over in an offseason trade from the Charlotte Bobcats, Stephen Jackson has displayed the toughness and leadership that resulted in the Bobcats first playoff appearance.
Through nearly the first quarter of the 2011-2012 NBA season, an injury-riddled Milwaukee Bucks team has struggled to play many games with it's full arsenal of players. Through these tough times early on, the Bucks have found a leader in Jackson.
"I think his heart, his desire and his will to win," Bucks' point guard Brandon Jennings told HOOPSWORLD of Jackson's endearing qualities. "He brings a lot of attitude to this team that we really need, that toughness that we never had. With a guy like that it's going to help other players around our team and make us better."
Making bad-to-mediocre teams better is nothing new for Jackson. Over the last two seasons in Charlotte, Jackson was the reason the Bobcats made their first playoff appearance in 2009-2010 and if he wouldn't have sustained a hamstring injury at the end of last season, Charlotte would have made it back-to-back playoff births – even after Gerald Wallace's departure to Portland.
Captain Jack believes he can do the same in Milwaukee if this team can put in the time and effort to gel together.
"We've got a lot of work to do," Jackson told HOOPSWORLD. "We're starting to find our niche but we have got guys hurt and haven't had our whole team yet so it's frustrating, but I'm happy to be here and just trying to make it work."
With one of the best centers in the Eastern Conference, Andrew Bogut, having missed five of the first 12 games to start the year and key reserves Beno Udrih and Luc Richard Mbah a Moute each missing time; Jackson's role has been expanded on the court, and he's responded.
After a slow start to the season, Jackson has averaged nearly 19 points per game while shooting 50 percent from the floor over the last four games in leading the Bucks to two wins in that span.
"He has played very well the past few games," Bucks' head coach Scott Skiles said. "We don't expect 25 or 30 out of him every night, but by his own admission he didn't go through much of camp so he was not in any sort of mid-season condition when the season started so he's still getting his legs under him. So we're hoping that's what's occurring right now that it was just a matter of getting a little bit more in game shape."
While the scoring is just an added plus, the intangibles Jackson brings make him an x-factor on the court. Defensively, he's averaged 1.5 steals per game for the season (right at two per over the four) as he routinely checks the other team's best offensive option.
"Jack is a competitor, he's going to compete," Skiles said. "When he's playing anything even close to the way he's played the last few games he's a great weapon out there."
Injuries have decimated this Milwaukee squad, which has led to a dismal 4-8 start to the season but Jackson believes that, when healthy, this team has a chance to compete for a playoff spot in the Eastern Conference.
"Yeah, when healthy we definitely can push for the playoffs," Jackson said. "That's definitely our goal, but healthy is a big key. Every team that has good seasons a lot of things go right, guys stay healthy, balls go there way a lot of stuff. They've got the basketball gods help and right now the basketball gods are against us we're just trying to figure out why."
In terms of his feelings for his former team in Charlotte, Jackson did his best to bite his tongue and not throw any salt on that old wound. The Bobcats have the second-worst record in the NBA to start the season at 3-11.
"Shout out to Michael Jordan for keeping me on the shoe thing [but] I don't care how they play that has nothing to do with me," Jackson said. "I love Mike that's all I've got to say."
The 33-year old Jackson, who's set to become a free agent after the 2012-2013 season, didn't seem fazed by the lack of a contract extension offer from the Bucks early on this season.
"It is what it is," Jackson said. "I'm going to go out here and try to what I can do and hopefully I can get an extension. If not I'll get it from somewhere else."
Even after the rash of injuries, as of Monday morning, Milwaukee finds themselves firmly in the playoff hunt in the Eastern Conference. As of this morning, the Bucks are just a game and a half behind the New York Knicks for the eighth and final playoff spot.
If there's anyone on this roster that can help break the losing mentality Milwaukee has developed of the past few years, it's Jackson. With a little help from the "basketball gods" as Jackson characterized them, maybe the Bucks can do just that and try to make some noise come April in the watered-down Eastern Conference.

I have been running my cluster with GigE networking components and do not have problems until I try a 3D run. I have studied the different protocols for passing messages, but do not understand the terminology (for I am not a computer scientist). Every discussion list I see has responses that all quote the same source. It is though no one understands the text (semaphores, etc.) and when people ask the question I am asking now, they drag and click the response. This is my question: I know that u/sysv are both tcp based. The standardized response is usysv works for SMP machines. I have a cluster of 8 uniprocessor nodes...does this mean I should use sysv?

European Union leaders are headed to Brussels for a big showdown over the bloc's spending budget. Dow Jones's Vanessa Mock explains what they are arguing over and the many flashpoints in the negotiating process. Photo: EPA
BRUSSELS—European Union leaders are headed to Brussels on Thursday for a big showdown over the bloc's spending budget, in a battle that pits richer against poorer member states, the East of the continent against the West, and the U.K. against almost everyone else.
With more than a handful of countries threatening a veto ahead of Thursday's summit, diplomats sounded pessimistic about prospects for an agreement on the European Union's spending ceilings for the coming seven years, in what are usually the thorniest of all EU negotiations.
This time around, disagreements have deepened in the middle of a continentwide economic downturn, as some countries seek to limit their contributions while others focus on maintaining funding for the continent's poorest regions and for projects aimed at enhancing growth.
The Netherlands, Sweden and Austria are among those leading the charge on behalf of the EU's net contributors, calling for major reductions in the spending plans for 2014 to 2020 that have been put forward by bureaucrats in the EU's Brussels headquarters. At the same time, they have pressed to maintain the rebates they get on their own national contributions.
The U.K., meanwhile, has led a lone campaign for what British Prime Minister David Cameron has called a "complete freeze" in spending.
"The U.K. has been the real outlier; their demands go way beyond what's on the table," says Fabian Zuleeg of the European Policy Centre, a think-tank in Brussels. "And sooner or later, the rest of the EU could turn against them."
On the other side of the argument is a loose alliance of 15 or so countries, led by Poland, Portugal and Hungary, that are furious that funds earmarked for less-developed regions will be slashed.
"It's an extreme situation. At the moment, there seem to be more vetoes than actual EU countries," said an EU official.
European Council President, Herman Van Rompuy, who will preside over the two-day meeting, has vowed repeatedly to keep heads of state in Brussels through the weekend to avert a collapse of the talks, arguing that a deal is needed urgently to ensure the EU and its institutions continue to function properly.
The Multiannual Financial Framework, as the 2014 to 2020 budget is known, sets out the headline figures allocated to different EU programs and activities, ranging from foreign policy to transport and infrastructure.
Though it arouses passion like no other issue, overall it represents about 1% of EU countries' combined national incomes, or roughly €940 billion ($1.2 trillion) for the entire seven years, according to Mr. Van Rompuy's latest proposal. Without a deal, EU officials argue it becomes impossible to set out medium-term policy priorities and spending.
In a reversal of usual summit protocol, Mr. Van Rompuy is hosting back-to-back bilateral meetings throughout Thursday with all 27 EU leaders, in an effort to bridge the huge gaps before the summit kicks off in the evening. Last week, he issued a compromise budget designed to win over the British and other net contributors by making fresh cuts to spending, though the move instantly sparked an outcry from France, Spain and Italy, which benefit from regional aid and farming subsidies.
This week, French Prime Minister François Hollande promised to ring-fence the revenues from the Common Agricultural Policy, one of the largest slices of the EU budget and one seen by many as most in need of reform.
Concerns among officials about France, Italy and others blocking talks have come to the fore this week, as initial fears that Mr. Cameron would torpedo the summit have appeared to recede with British diplomats signaling they are more open to a compromise. However, governments like Austria and Italy balk at the U.K. being able to hold onto a multibillion-euro rebate and have vowed to seek compensatory measures.
Euro-zone countries such as Germany are particularly keen to avert a protracted round of talks spilling into next year, as they grapple with other pressing issues, such as the Greek debt crisis, Mr. Zuleeg said. "They want to put this to bed as soon as possible," he said.
Should this week's talks fail, EU leaders have until February to reach a deal before Brussels officials run out of time to map out spending and priorities for each policy area until 2020. If no deal is reached next year, an emergency mechanism kicks that would use annual spending figures from 2013 plus inflation—a far costlier arrangement that all EU countries are keen to avoid.

This recipe is a little peek into my day job! I work in Financial Services at Oregon Cherry Growers, where my job is to control inventory — though inventory is extremely slippery and prone to deception, I do my best to keep the numbers true and in order. I've always been a numbers nerd and you can literally hear me do a "yesssssss" and a fist pump when actual usage and reported usage align and my numbers come out evenly. THAT is awesome, you guys.
Our co-op has been operating for 81 years, and we are owned by our cherry growers. As one of the largest producers of sweetened cherries in the world, you've probably enjoyed our maraschinos in a Manhattan or Old Fashioned, our glace cherries in a fruit cake during the holidays, or — my favorite — our dark cherry halves in Ben & Jerry's ice cream (Cherry Garcia is the best flavor, amiright!). I love my job, the people I work with every day and I love these flavorful wild blueberries that we dried and wanted to show them off. Look for dried wild blueberries (they're the small ones!) in the bulk section or baking section at your grocer.
I wanted a clean, nutritious granola that didn't have to be an indulgence in sugars and fats. I made some departures from the usual granola recipes, so you won't find the familiar crunchy clusters of sweet goodness since there isn't enough sugar or fat to bind those nuggets here. But I don't miss them; the toastiness and texture of this granola stand their own in deliciousness with these chewy blueberries, crunchy nuts and vanilla notes. I love it and I think it makes a great snack or yogurt combo for breakfast. Here's why!:: it's packed with protein, whole grains for a healthy heart, omega-3-rich flax seeds and healthy fats from almonds and pecans, though you could substitute any nut you like best.
Further, blueberries and wheat germ are high in antioxidants, which are important for energy and muscle function, among other things. Wheat germ is also super-high in protein (a higher percentage than you'd find in most meats, [which are not yummy in granola]) and folic acid, which helps reduce the risk of heart disease; it also contains lots of fiber, potassium and phytonutrients. It is an amazing superfood! Add the flax seeds after baking the granola to preserve their nutritional benefits. A sprinkle of cinnamon and ginger make this such a tasty bowl of toasty crunch for your morning. Enjoy!
blueberry and pecan granola
yields about 10 cups- 3 cups old-fashioned oats
- 2 cups red wheat flakes
- 1 cup wheat germ
- 1 cup raw almonds, chopped
- 1 cup raw pecans, chopped
- 1/3 cup olive oil or coconut oil
- 3/4 cup maple syrup, raw honey, agave, brown or raw sugar or a combination
- 1 1/2 teaspoons coarse salt (or 1 teaspoon table salt)
- 1 teaspoon vanilla
- 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
- 1 teaspoon ground ginger
- pinch of ground cardamom (optional)
- 1/4 cup flax seeds
- 2 cups dried wild blueberries
Combine first five ingredients in the biggest bowl you've got. Pre-heat oven to 325F.
In a small pot over medium heat or in a microwave-safe bowl, combine the oil, sweetener of choice, vanilla, salt and spices and warm, stirring occasionally, until well combined. Pour over oat mixture in bowl and stir very well to coat evenly.
Divide between two dry, ungreased sheet pans and spread to an even layer. Bake for 30 – 50 minutes (depending on your oven and the level of toastiness you prefer), stirring every 10 minutes and rotating pans between upper and lower racks each time. Keep a close watch, because burned granola isn't really all that nice.
Remove granola from oven and top each pan with half the flax seeds and half the blueberries; stir. Allow to cool completely, and store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to a month, or in the freezer for up to six months.

Ray attached handles to ease carrying the square shaped race mufflers through the race pits, and the mufflers became known as the "suitcase mufflers." Today, the innovative Flowmaster mufflers are the result of years of development with top race engine builders, thousands of hours of dyno research and "real-world" on-track testing.

The parts came on time. In my driveway I backed my Camaro on 6" ramps, cut the pipes the way the instructions said, and in less than 20 minutes I had new exhaust installed. Very easy and quick. Good rumble, not too loud. My 2013 SS Camaro sounds great.

Posted: Jan 29, 2013 2:03 PM by Monica Chavarria
HUNTSVILLE (AP) - A Dallas judge has halted the scheduled execution of a Texas woman that was set for Tuesday evening. She would have been the first woman put to death in the U.S. in three years.
The order from state District Judge Larry Mitchell moves the execution of 51-year-old Kimberly McCarthy to April 3.
It wasn't immediately certain if the Dallas County District Attorney's office will appeal the ruling.
Lawyers for McCarthy, who is black, argued the jury that convicted and sentenced her to death was selected improperly based on race. It was made up of 11 white people and one black person.
She faced lethal injection for the 1997 beating, stabbing and robbery of a 71-year-old neighbor in Lancaster, about 15 miles south of Dallas.

All students entering grades 7 through 12 must provide proof of immunization against whooping cough (also known as pertussis) for the upcoming school year. In light of California's recent whooping cough epidemic, this is even more important to protect students and their families.
"The best way to get the pertussis vaccine, called 'Tdap', is through your family's health care provider since they can also provide any other needed vaccines and care," said Dr. Richard Burton, Placer County Health Officer. "However, the new school year is approaching quickly, so Placer County has been offering low-cost Tdap vaccine clinics during August for those students that would otherwise be unable to obtain the vaccine before school," he added.
Placer County will also be offering additional Tdap vaccine clinics for the North Tahoe and Truckee area in collaboration with the Tahoe Truckee Unified School District. There is no cost for the vaccine due to support from the California Department of Public Health for these school-based clinics. The vaccine will be offered at the following locations:
Truckee High School – Aug. 22nd 3-7 PM
11725 Donner Pass Rd., Truckee
North Tahoe School – Aug. 23 10-2 PM
2945 Polaris Rd., Tahoe City
Alder Creek Middle School August 25 4-6 PM10931 Alder Dr., Truckee
Vaccinating students will be the priority at these clinics; however, others may also be able to get the vaccine if supplies last.
Tdap immunization now will not only meet new school requirements, but will also help protect all children from the threat of pertussis by reducing the possibility of spread to others. Whooping cough can be debilitating to anyone, but young infants are the most vulnerable to severe illness from this infectious disease.
The new requirement applies to students in both public and private schools – all 7th-12th graders will need documentation of having received this vaccine since their 7th birthday. Parents are urged not to wait until school starts – under the new law, these students will need proof of vaccination for the school year that is about to begin.
For more information, please call the Placer County Community Health information line at (530) 889-7161, or check www.placer.ca.gov.

How Long Will an Opened Bottle of Whiskey Stay Good?

I would like to ask you for advice in a particular case here. I have a few bottles of scotch that I would like to keep unopened for a long time lets say 20+ years. I read throughout the whole forum here and I learned that I have to keep those bottles out of light and out of heat. I can take care of that, I keep those bottles in a small wine cellar that always stays at 66 degrees and there's no light getting to that cellar. Bottles are in upright position. Here is the tricky part I need advice about
: I live in Arizona and as you know it's a very dry state. I wanna know how to keep the cork from drying out and shrinking and as a result letting air gets in the bottle and the scotch evaporating. I read the part where you suggest saran wrap. Do you think that will help in my case? I also thought of flipping the bottle upside down every once in a while for a quick second or two. The bottle will stay in upright position so the cork won't affect the quality and the taste of the scotch, but flipping it quickly will just let the liquid wet the cork and prevent the drying of the cork. Do you think that might work, and if so how often do you suggest I should flip the bottles for a second or two? Any other suggestions?
Thanks for your time
Hi there, my first question to you is why are you storing scotch for 20 years plus? If this is absolutely your intentions, then your worst enemy is going to be lack of humidity which is going to dry out the corks faster. Arizona is so incredibly DRY! You don't want to flip your bottles as there really isn't any benefit to that when it comes to scotch. Sounds like you are doing what you should, but see if you achieve consistent humidity levels. Another idea in addition to the saran wrap is to put your bottles in a box (try to get one from the liquor store that has the bottle dividers) and then tightly seal it. Not sure what other suggestions I can offer, but I really would want you to enjoy your scotch now and within the next couple of years! Good luck and enjoy

The Total Money Makeover Journal : When Dave Ramsey was experiencing his own Total Money makeover, he found that journaling was very helpful and effective. Dave says, "Take this journal and record everything happening that seems like a big deal. Record the relationship issues, the debt, the emotions, the setbacks, the victories, and anything else that seems important at the time. The immediate benefits of writing everything down are twofold. First, writing helps you process the problems and victories. The second immediate benefit of journaling is that you can reread your entry just days - even months - later and gain vital perspective on your progress. Write it down. You will be glad you did."
