Nigeria has the largest economy in Africa, at more than US$500 billion, and ranks 23rd in the world. A recent re-evaluation of Nigeria's true economic size doubled the previous estimate, and brought it well ahead of South Africa, which is a member (unlike Nigeria) of the G20 club for political as well as economic reasons. Nigeria's economy can be said to be quite diverse from one point of view, but heavily dependent on oil and gas at the same time. Oil and natural gas account for about 15% of Nigera's overall economy, but traditionally represent more than 90% of the country's exports and as...

Theater Review: 'Twelfth Night'
Date: November 7, 2012
by: Paula Atwell | Theater Critic
The opening night audience of FSU/Asolo Conservatory for Actor Training's first play of the season doth not protest, but rather, finds Shakespeare's romantic doppelganger of mistaken identity to be a sterling choice for a showcase of student talent. Director Greg Leaming creates a lively free-for-all with his modernist take on the classic comedy, abetting clear-to-the-contemporary-ear speech and some rather eclectic character interpretation.
The modernism is externally reinforced by set designer Chris McVicker's checkerboard flooring and red furniture, and by David Covach's costume design, largely suggestive of the '50s, but sometimes echoing contemporary styles, most glaringly the women's high heels. Especially successful is the Jester's Mondrian-inspired color-block spandex sheath, which succeeds in being au courant as well as "Mad Men," and at the same time, evocative of the crazy quilt colors favored by Elizabethan jesters.
The plot revolves around Viola, an aristocrat who's been shipwrecked and washed up on the shore of Illyria. For safety, and to make her way in life, she disguises herself as a young man, modeled after her missing twin brother, and lands a job as page to Duke Orsino. He enlists her help in courting the countess Olivia, who then falls for the messenger, disguised Viola, instead, who in turn comes to love Orsino.
Maxey Whitehead plays Viola most believably as a sensible, sensitive young person who handles herself so well it's difficult to discern why she would be in love with pouty, self-centered Orsino, played with bland ruefulness by Cale Haupert. As Olivia, regal Amanda Lynn Mullen captures the entitled waspishness of the countess, and at the same time, her good taste in men.
Dominating the B plot, Feste, the jester, is uniquely brought to life by Lucy Lavely, who has assumed an intriguing hipster/trickster take on the knowing fool archetype. Reginald K. Robinson plays Malvolio, the head servant, whose self-righteousness makes him the target of a cruel prank played on him by Sir Toby Belch, Sir Andrew and Maria, respectively played by Brian Nemiroff, Zlatomir Moldovanski and Tori Grace Hines, with Kristen Lynne Blossom as Fabian.
Viola's lost twin brother. Sebastian arrives in Illyria, bringing the tangled web to its conclusion, played by Jefferson McDonald, who surprises and delights with an unexpected blues, jazz piano solo.
'Twelfth Night'
When: Through Nov. 18
Where: FSU Cook Theatre, Asolo Repertory, 5555 N. Tamiami Trail, Sarasota
Cost: $28 matinee; $29 evening

"I found this recipe in a copy of Vegetarian Times. Gallo Pinto translates as "painted rooster", and is a dish eaten by many Costa Ricans almost every day. The addition of ginger and Worcestershire adds a quite unique flavor to this dish."
Serving Size: 1 (175 g)
Servings Per Recipe: 6
"Excellent side for a latin inspired stir fry I made tonight. The only things I did differently was to add a bit of stock with the rice because my rice was a tad dry, the juice of half a lime and salt and pepper to taste."
"Hello! I'm from Costa Rica!! The recipe is just fine, just the way we make it here! To add an extra touch you can use also chopped red bell pepper. We usually eat this for breakfast as it is a very filling dish. The best gallo pinto is made with left over beans, not freshly made ones. An other important observation; we don't exactly use worcetershire, we use a local version of it called salsa Lizano, a very traditional sauce, made by a local family, which resembles worcestershire, you can find it in the internet on costarican sites. It's great with sourcream or scrambled eggs."
"This was very delicious. I thought the W sauce might be overpowering but I used 3 tablespoons and the flavours blended wonderfully! I used one can of black beans and the ratio of beans to rice was great!"
"I love Gallo Pinto, after having spent a summer in Costa Rica. This recipe is good, but heed the advice of some of the Costa Ricans below and try to find some Salsa Lizano, add sour cream and even bacon if you aren't going vegetarian. I also think making sure your rice is quite firm helps, too (I used day old rice in mine). Thanks for the recipe!"
"This recipe is super yummy! I needed something to make for Lent, so I started experimenting with different bean recipes. Gallo Pinto is now part of my regular menu! We love it made with red peppers as other reviews suggested, as well as topped with sour cream, cilantro, green onions, and sometimes also my homemade Pico De Gallo. I've made this both by cooking the beans from scratch, or also just using two 14.5 oz cans of beans. Turns out yummy either way! I usually serve it with a side salad."
"This is a delicious rice recipe find. I halved the recipe, added minced fresh jalapeno, and about a 1/4 C. chopped bell pepper. I loved the bright flavor from the coriander. Thanks for sharing the recipe, I'll be making it again."
"This was so much better than I even expected! I followed the recipe almost exactly - I did add some extra black beans and used a large onion rather than a medium onion. For those who think it needs something extra - perhaps a pinch of red pepper flakes would help..? Just a thought. Thanks for sharing this recipe!"
"This is nice. The flavor is a little different from what I am used to. It had a little spice and a little smokiness. I imagine it would be a nice full meal if you added some shredded chicken or pork or something. I think I'll stick with my standard cuban black beans but this is a nice way to mix it up sometimes. Thanks for the great recipe Kizmic Blues..."
"I just returned from Costa Rica and while this dish is close it's not close enough. =( Sorry. This is a recipe best done the long way around: Use fresh or dried beans, preparing them accordingly; saute your UNCOOKED rice in a little oil, then add the onion, garlic, peppers, chicken broth or water and cook until rice is done (25 minutes-ish); once the rice and beans are cooked saute them together, using some of the "black water" from the beans. If you can find Lizano sauce to serve it with, all the better. If you want to get really authentice then serve with some plantains! - Pura Vida!"
"I have only just now downloaded the recipe, so I cannot comment on this particular version's merits yet. However, I look forward to trying it.

We were lucky enough to live in Costa Rica for about six months in the late 1980s. In our experience, when you ate breakfast in a restaurant, this was what you were served 99% of the time. Obviously, each cook had their own variation, however it was always very good, and sometimes absolutely outstanding. So I suggest you keep tweaking it and looking for variations until it is truly a remarkable dish. Which this may be to begin with. We tried to duplicate it in our own kitchen, while we lived there. But, we were never completely happy with it. This recipe looks like it might supply the missing ingredients.

There was a particular local brand of steak sauce, sort of halfway between HP sauce and Worcestershire sauce, that we suspected was an important ingredient.

We were on a very limited budget and only ate at very economical restaurants. The sort of place that the lower income Costa Ricans ate. Gallo Pinto was always the primary breakfast suggestion and at mid day, the businessman's special, or blue plate special, the lunch of the day, was always a plate with a serving of white rice and a serving of black beans and an entrée in the middle of the plate and a side of chopped salad on the plate. So, it is no mystery where they get their white rice and black beans. But the way they combine them can be absolutely magical with the right chef."
"I'd been looking for more ways to eat beans since they're so good for you. This recipe is really tasty, and popular with the kiddo's to. I've reduced the amount of rice by a lot to cut the carbs. Even with reducing the rice to where it's about 3 or 4/1 (beans vs. rice) you use about the same amount of Worcestershire The blend of flavors is really different and this recipe went into my regular rotation right away. Thanks for this instant classic!!!"
"This is an awesome rendition of what I loved when I lived in Costa Rica. I recommend upping the proportion of beans and *definitely* adding cilantro. Thanks for sharing!"
"This was really good! I used brown rice and pinto beans as that is what I had on hand. Garnished with a little cheese (no sour cream) and the suggested cilantro and green onions. Served with chicken! Fantastic"
"Excellent. Made it for a Costa Rican Potluck and everyone loved it."
"Good vegetarian version of the recipe, although I would add some chopped red bell peppers. For those who complain about this recipe being bland, Costa Rican cooking is very mild compared with other Hispanic and Caribbean cuisines. The best breakfasts I had in Costa Rica included fried banana and either scrambled eggs or turialba (white) cheese."
"I love this recipe! The seasonings for the beans were great and the addition of the rice made it even better. This was something different and I'm glad I tried it. Will make again."
"Yum! This brought back memories of our Costa Rica travels! I can't believe how easy it was. I substituted brown rice and added chopped red bell pepper. I also added about a 1/4 cup of chicken broth to pull up spices from the bottom of the pan and get the consistency I was after. Great with chicken for dinner and I plan on eating the leftovers with eggs tomorrow!"
"This was completely wonderful. I was amazed at how the flavors melded so well and so quickly. This is great comfort food. Will try this with eggs next time as other reviewers spoke of. My only complaint (and it is a small one) is that it is a little dry. Over all a truly satisfying, quick to fix and filling dish. This is definitely going in the regular rotation"
"I am going with three stars too. I really like beans and rice dishes and I like everything that went into here but I too felt it was missing something. I am not a lover of spicy foods but I think maybe it needed a little bit of heat or more of the spices that were already in there? That said, we did enjoy it rolled up in tortillas with refried beans (it is going to be a musical house tonight) and salsa."

How to Set up an Entertainment Center
Most people would give up when it comes to hooking up an entertainment center. Although it may seem like a very difficult thing to do, it's not.
Literally people spend hundreds of dollars having someone else do the set up.
These clearly defined steps will save you time and money. You will also learn a lot by doing it yourself.
Who knows, you may be able to make some money on the side doing so.
Make sure you have all the necessary components and accessories needed before you start.
1Place all the components, TV, speakers where you want them.Ad
2Mount the flat panel TV & the surround sound speakers on the wall if possible.
3Turn all equipment sideways on the shelves so you can get to the connections in the back.
4Plug in all the power cords into a power strip.
5Use the composite video cables to connect the VCR to the receiver.
6Connect the antenna to the High Definition TV receiver with a coaxial cable.
7Connect the DVD player to the surround sound receiver, using the component video cables. For the audio connect the digital optical cable from the DVD player to the receiver.
8Connect the digital cable box to the TV using a coaxial cable.
9Use a DVI/HDMI Cable to connect the TV to the High Definition TV receiver.
10Connect the TV to the surround sound receiver using a set of audio and component video cables.
11Connect the surround sound speakers to the receiver using speaker wires. Connect the subwoofer to the surround sound receiver with a subwoofer cable.
12Turn everything on. If necessary, switch channels and settings to match the labels on the connections you've just made, to test the connections.Ad
We could really use your help!
cleaning carpet?
estate planning?
raising children?
- If you are still using a VCR, especially with an HD TV and cable/satellite receiver, throw it away and get a DVR...you'll be glad you did!
- There are some useful links listed below.
- Place the subwoofer in the front corner of the room to hear the bass better.
- Upgrade your audio & video cables; remember your picture is only as good as your cables can transmit.
- Take your time to go through the steps as you can see all the cables and connections are clearly labeled and color-coded.
- For digital systems the cable quality does not matter. The whole point of digital is that you either get a signal or you do not. Getting expensive cables for a digital set up is synonymous to buying quality cables for your lights at home, in-case the lights do not turn on which you flick the switch. "While digital transmissions are also degraded... variations do not matter since they are ignored when the signal is received."[1]
- Make use of all diagrams included along with the entertainment set.
- Label each cable/wire with a piece of masking tape and marker in case you move or replace equipment. Use wire ties or zip ties to keep the wires neat and tidy.
- If you have multiple components with HDMI outputs and a capable audio receiver, connect each component to the receiver and use one HDMI cable to go from the receiver to the TV. This will make the system much easier to control and you'll have less cables to buy.
- These procedures are only applicable for most modern entertainment center.
- Don't waste money buying cheap cables.
Things You'll Need
- Component Video Cables
- Digital Optical Cables
- Coaxial Cables & Subwoofer Cable
- HDTV Tuner/Receiver (if not already built in)
- Digital Cable Box
- DVI/HDMI cables
- Antenna (to watch local channels)
- 5.1 Surround Sound Receiver
- Power source (for clean and pure connection)
- Blu-Ray Player (for high definition movies)
- 5.1 surround speakers

Example Blog Post - Click the EDIT link BELOW to change this post now
Welcome! to admirigyou's blog (name was a typo it was suppose to be admiringyou oooppps) There is something to be said about society and the dating scene. My perspective has always been that women tend to look for men based on their income, height, size, looks, meterial possessions and wealth. There is a lack of acceptance of personality and taking someone for who they are as they are and not what you can find outside of the man himself. Men are not immune to their search in women neither. Men tend to look at women based on their hair color, eye color, body size and shape, breast size or their backside measurements (the ass). Men tend to take women as if they are a prized trophy telling others about how "Hot" his woman is. Have we all forgotten about the internal beauty and the wealth that is held inside versus whats on the outside or material assests. I will have to say that it is men who seems to have the disadvantage in the dating world. Men are the ones who have to initiate then wait for an answer yes or no from the woman rather than it being equal on both sides. From my perspective as a short person I noticed that women taller than me for example are not interested yet its very hard to find a woman who is shorter, I am not saying taller women are bad but they want guys taller than them and of course depending on your view being short talking to a taller woman means I am having a conversation with her breasts or having to look up all the time some men may like that concept but I don't think many women appreciate men staring at or talking to their breasts. In conclusion, as humans we tend to be picky sometimes, too picky but if we get to particular then we narrow our search for the person to date, fall in love with, marry, or just have a casual relationship with. I could be wrong or I am getting too old to understand society in its current state.

Coxx is one hot sexy femme...Why,because you can read freaky crazy on that cute face.
Sooooooo Hot !!!
Would love to rim her ass so dirty :)
She has been barechested in one clip that was a 3some...
Sexiest TV around, but seems to be not making vids now. I did speak with her on her fone line, and I would eat her pussy forever if she would let me.
And that guy is totally gay! Had to pump himself instead of just looking at this hot bitch and laying the pipe to her no wonder neither came! So Kayla did you make the full transition or what?
place of birth is Memphis TN , she currently lives in Las vegas ...
She or he whatever..is one of my favourites cuz like Kimber, she almost always has a hard cock and has the ability to spread her legs pretty damn wide. It looks so hot when she's getting fucked. She even inspired me to train to do the splits in case ever get the fortune to get a dick up my ass.
Date of Birth: 11-10-61 - it can't be true that she is 52 years old
Not a crossdresser a transvestite subtle but major difference. She obviously lives as a woman most or all of the time! Is great at it while a crossdresser goes back and forth!
Nice, but he's a crossdresser not a shemale. That's why he's never barechested in the movies. Name is Lexx Parker.
I love her dearly and would love to drill her night after night. Absolutely fuckin' hot. I'd ask her to merry me, but I'm not sure I could get her to even top me once. Never seen her top. Damn she's fine. But a man needs to get drilled once in awhile .. lol
Kayla is very hot! One of my faves! She does gay porn too as a boy. Very hot , very cute as well! Goes by the name of Lexx Parker, but she looks better as a girl!
This bitch fucks like her life depends on it.

I am a "HOMOSEXUAL"
Submitted by Paul (not verified) on Sat, 05/26/2012 - 10:56am.
Thanks for shinning the light on that "not a homo". It's so simple really, isn't it? You figured it out...hopefully you can enlighten others. I was 5 yrs. old when I first knew I wanted to see my dad's pee-pee. Since then, I've always been "that way" and although it took me 20 more years to actually do anything about it...the original feeling never changed. Does anyone really think a 5 year old makes that choice for his life?

Photo essays: Your stories in pictures
Crossing the Camino de Santiago – Part 7
The starting point of this pilgrimage is the southern city of Seville in Andalusia. From there it passes through Zafra, Mérida, Cáceres, and Salamanca on its way north. At the city of Zamora, pilgrims have a choice, they can continue northward to Astorga or head northwest through northern Portugal; re-entering Spain near the town of Verin.
Verin forms the crossroad of three camino routes: Caminho Portugués de la Via de la Plata, Caminho Português do Interior, and an alternative route along the Camino Sanabrés. It's also one of the focal points of our seventh tour to discover more of the camino's secrets.
Once again our day began at the luxury farmhouse, Campo Verde in the sleepy village of Vilatan. After making our way to the main road we turned right and headed towards Chantada. From there we followed the N-540 and N-525 into Ourense.
We left Ourense and headed out along the A-52 in the direction of Madrid. This scenic motorway slices its way through the Galician countryside, climbing high into the mountains. After 54 km the highway begins its descent towards the historic town of Verin.
With over ten kilometres still to drive, the impressive fortifications of the castle of Monterrei were clearly visible: perched on a hilltop overlooking the town and surrounding countryside. The castle is the largest hilltop fortress in Galicia and during the Middle Ages was the seat of the lineage of the Dukes of Alba. Once in the town centre we followed signs for the Parador. A narrow road winds its way through vineyards as we climbed the hillside to this striking monument.
The castle is open from Wednesday to Sunday, 11 am until 2 pm and again in the afternoon from 5 pm until 8 pm. Like many tourist sites in Galicia this historic monument and museum are free to enter. The original fortifications were formed by three walled enclosures, all of which can be seen today. The most interesting of these is the hilltop complex which includes; the Renaissance Palace, the 15th century Torre del Homenaje (Homage Tower), the Torre de las Damas (Tower of the Ladies), the remains of the Pilgrims' Hospital, and the Gothic Church of Santa Maria. Most of these buildings are credited to Sancho Sánchez de Ulloa, first Count of Monterrei in the 15th century.
The regularity of guided tours is rather hit and miss; but if you're lucky enough to join one, the guides do their best to cover the most interesting parts of the narrative in English. The museum has a number of noteworthy exhibits but for me, the highlight of the castle was the tower. From ground level the climb was difficult and steep. As we neared the top the stairs became very narrow, the ceilings extremely low, and the light particularly dim; but the views from the top over the surrounding area are spectacular. It wasn't until we made our way down that I noticed the masons marks, chiselled into the huge stone blocks; a feature worth looking out for.
Opposite the castle is the Parador of Verin (32600, Verin, Ourense +34 902 54 79 79). Despite its appearance, it's a contemporary building built in the style of a Galician pazo or manor house. It's also the perfect location to stop for lunch. For fish lovers I can highly recommend the Merluza a la Gallega: succulent pieces of hake cooked in a stew with potatoes, onions and garlic; and for dessert why not try the pancakes (filloas), delicious with chocolate ice cream. To accompany our lunch we ordered a bottle of Viña Verino from the Gargalo winery (Rua do Castelo 59, 32619, Verin, Ourense +34 988 590 203). Looking out through the restaurant window we could see the grapes ripening on the slopes below the castle.
After lunch we headed off to our final stop on the tour, Allariz. As we headed back along the A-52 towards Ourense we caught our first glimpse of the Real Monesterio de Santa Clara (Royal Monastery of St. Claire). Only from such a distance can the size and majesty of this medieval monastery be appreciated. It dates back to 1268 when Queen Violante, wife of Alfonso X ordered its construction.
Central to the town is the plaza mayor: an unsurfaced and disproportionately large open square. A tree lined avenue runs from an ornamental fountain across the plaza mayor to the church of San Benito. A network of cobbled streets, lined with quaint cottages, runs through the town linking a number of charming old churches. Without doubt, Allariz must be one of the most picturesque towns in the province of Ourense: a rewarding way to finish our drive along this part of the camino.

Raising the Game
To position Coral at the forefront of the UK betting industry and stand out in a saturated market, the brand needed to promote the new industry leading format and market beating offers of its online division, Coral Interactive.
We needed to create a game-changing campaign that positioned Coral as the forerunner in a new era of betting; uniquely positioned to cater to the explosion of new bet-in-play customers.
The ad features a 1930s style football traveling through the air, shedding its skin to reveal a 50s style one, then a 70s style one – gradually evolving into a modern day football with the line 'sport has evolved, betting has too'.

My middle child ( son) turns 21 TODAY. It's weird to think this has happened. We are having a brunch for him on Sunday. His girlfriend is having dinner party at restaurant tonight. I might not be able to make it since it's a work night for me but I'm on the call off list so I'll know by 1pm or so. Hope I can make it. Anyone have any suggestions for eating out at hawaiian place? I'm thinking the usual of a salad with dressing on the side. Maybe fish. Trying to get to gym by 9:30 this morning too and burn some calories
Can't do it today. Just don't have it in me. I guess everyone has a down day. This is mine. Eating right. Not excercising today. A bit down. it seems as if everything I do today has to be redone. Having a hard time working on my tax stuff. Almost went to the drive thur to get a bacon burger fix. But, I did not. Ok, one really good thing I've done today . Well, what else can I do to improve the day?
So it's been a long day. I had a really hard time focusing on what I needed to get done. I had three big goals. Probably too ambitious. Finish my shipping for my ebay store, Workout, and get my accounting done. Well, I met 2 of the three goals. Shipping and workout. But during my workout I actually though of a way to get my accounting organized and done so all is good. Just have to make sure it gets done tomorrow. I though about skipping the workout since working on getting my accounting done is really important. I choose the workout over the other but I do think the workout helped me organize my thoughts. Will see. If my system I'm implementing tomorrow works then I will know I made the right choice. If not, I still got my workout in :)
The body is a funny thing. You can do everything right to loose weight and it might not come off one week or the next then safe it up for all a one time. I lost 2 pounds from yesterday to today. This is helpful. It was so hard not to get frustrated when I was doing everything I should. But it paid OFF. So I hope everyone out there understands this. It will happen :) Got my workout in today and I'm enjoying an evening off from the hospital after working all weekend there

"American Idol" Kelly Clarkson is set to perform at America's most popular sporting event: the Super Bowl.
Clarkson has been chosen to sing the national anthem before the NFL championship game at Indianapolis on Feb. 5, a person familiar with Super Bowl entertainment plans told The Associated Press on Wednesday.
The person spoke on the condition of anonymity because no announcement has been made. The league is expected to reveal the anthem singer later this month.
Since becoming the first winner of "American Idol" a decade ago, Clarkson has sold more than 20 million albums worldwide and had more ...

Editor says, what if Hitler and Churchill fought bitterly over artistic differences? Please note that the opinions expressed in this post do not necessarily reflect the views of the author(s).
In 1949, on this day the artist Adolf Schicklegruber guest starred on the famous Italian radio show "Benny the Moose"; the mood was light with relaxed conversation because Adolf and Benny went way back.Churchill's PsycheAdolf described the fine progress being made by his protege US Army Major (retd) Dwight D. Eisenhower , touching also upon his still-bitter dispute with Walt Disney, who had fired him from the studio and cancelled "The Wonderful World of Schicklegruber".Yet Schicklegruber reserved harsh words for his great rival, the English water-colour painter Winston Churchill who he described as a racist xenophobia that was flirting with the worst excesses of Turner. Because the sweeping imagery of his dramatic masterpiece "blood, toil, tears, and sweat" had a nationalist, anti-semitic subtext, revealing a deep subconscious yearning for a false classical past that Adolf found particularly disturbing as a German Jew.

Hartford, CT (Sports Network) - Kemba Walker scored 24 points and grabbed eight rebounds to help fourth-ranked Connecticut beat South Florida, 66-61, in overtime at the XL Center.
Alex Oriakhi was the only other Connecticut player to reach double-digits in scoring, adding 15 points.
The Huskies (11-1, 1-1 Big East) were coming off Monday's loss at No. 6 Pittsburgh.
Augustus Gilchrist had 21 points and eight rebounds for the Bulls (6-9, 0-2), who have dropped four straight.
UConn trailed by as many as nine in the second half before scoring six straight points to stay close. USF continued to lead until the final minutes, and Walker's jumper gave the Huskies a 58-55 lead with 1:04 remaining. However, South Florida's Anthony Crater nailed a three-pointer with 28 seconds left in regulation to force overtime.
The Huskies grabbed the lead for good on Jamal Coombs-McDaniel's layup about 90 seconds into the extra frame. Walker hit a jumper to make it 62-58 before Coombs-McDaniel and Roscoe Smith both sank a pair of free throws.
South Florida made just one of its six shots in overtime, a three-pointer by Crater in the dying moments.

What's Larry King Think About Abandoned Fox Bid for Time Warner?
A merger between Murdoch & Time Warner never made sense & didn't have a prayer of being approved. Too big of a conglomerate.
— Larry King (@kingsthings) August 6, 2014
And here's some other commentary on the matter:
- The AP: 21st Century Fox would have had to navigate potentially daunting antitrust hurdles to buy Time Warner. Cultural clashes also loomed had the two companies combined…
- Forbes: The timing of Murdoch's withdrawal certainly raises the stakes for Time Warner CEO Jeff Bewkes…
- The Guardian: The deal seemed personal for Murdoch who had lined up a key position within the merged entity for his son James Murdoch, whose career seemed all but over at the height of the hacking scandal.

The Friends of Meriter awarded three Middleton seniors with college scholarships.
Ismat Bhuiyan, Emily Feiner, and Katherine Kretzschmar each received a $2,000 scholarship.
Tips from Meriter's Greenbush Garden Bistro, Dr. Joe's Coffee Clinic and valet parking finance the scholarship program.
Nineteen scholarships were given to area high school seniors who plan to pursue health care careers.
Four of the students have a parent who works at Meriter. The students were recognized at an awards luncheon on Wednesday, May 4.
Since its formation in 1987, Friends of Meriter has awarded $356,000 worth of scholarships to 336 high school students pursuing a health care career.
Gifted and Talented and Classroom teacher, Amy Weber was invited by Oprah to be part of her final weight loss episode and reveal her 125 pound weight loss to Oprah's viewers across the world. Amy's weightloss journey began in December of 2009 when she vowed not to indulge in any holiday-season goodies.
The episode was taped on April 27, 2011 and will air today on WISC-TV3 at 4:00 and on TVW-14 at 9:30 p.m.
Amy submitted her weight loss story online and was selected and notified prior to the taping at Harpo Studios in Chicago.
Amy admits that the whole Oprah experience was the thrill of a lifetime. The day Amy was at Harpo for the taping, there were two segments being prepared; the final weight loss episode and Oprah's final interview with President Barack and Michelle Obama.
Oprah congratulated her weight loss guests by giveing them each a new bike and helmet so they can stay on their healthy path.
WISC-TV, Channel 3000.com and St. Mary's Hospital are partnering together to host a communitywide project called Hands on Hearts.
The goal of the project is to train as many people as possible in compression-only CPR. The life-saving skill can be learned in 15 minutes.
"We're investing in making our community a safer, healthier and better place to live. This program has been proven to save lives and we're so honored to be part of it," said Colin Benedict, WISC-TV's news director.
COCPR is a hands-only technique to help those in sudden cardiac arrest.
The Code Blue Band featuring Rock n' Roll with St. Mary's Dr. Frank Byrne, wrapped up the evening.
For the first time this year, DocStar was opened up to the general public and it really was quite the show.
All proceeds from the evening benefit the Benevolent Specialists Project Free Clinic in Middleton.
The BSP Free Clinic is the only free clinic providing multi-specialty healthcare in Wisconsin.
It is staffed by volunteer physicians and nurses and is funded solely by private gifts and donated services from Dean Clinic, Meriter, St. Mary's Hospital, Turville Bay MRI & Radiation Oncology Center and UW Health, along with various pharmaceutical companies and laboratories.
Physicians from Dean Clinic, Meriter Medical Group and St. Mary's Hospital will put down their stethoscopes and pick up microphones to perform musical acts at the fifth annual DocStar on Saturday, April 30.

Local company CareFusion is hosting a cupcake-selling fundraiser with the proceeds going toward seizure research at the University of Wisconsin-Madison.
CareFusion has made medical devices for people who suffer from epilepsy for more than 50 years.
One of those devices included the EEG, which helps doctors see electrical activity generated by the brain and often helps to diagnose seizures.
"By stimulating the brain, we can find the functional areas like speech, or motor activity or sensory areas. Essentially, they want to stay away from those when they do the surgeries," said Dan Strelow, a CareFusion clinical specialist.
CareFusion is organizing a "brain lane" fundraiser at its offices to sell cupcakes and raise money.
People can drive through and pick up a cupcake and coffee for $5 at the CareFusion building on Deming Way in Middleton. The drive is on Friday, March 25 from 7 to 11 a.m.
All money will go toward epilepsy research.
The Dean Foundation will be hosting a migraine study at its Middleton location, and officials said they are currently looking for teens and children to participate.
At least 10 percent of children suffer from migraine headaches and migraines are even more common among teenagers, according to Dean officials. They said that although migraines in adolescents are not usually as severe as those suffered by adults, they can affect a child's quality of life by causing them to miss school and other important activities.
Symptoms of migraines can include pain, sensitivity to light and sound, nausea and vomiting, doctors said. There are very few FDA approved treatments for migraines in children and teenagers, but important research is currently being done on medications for the treatment of adolescent migraines.

Review by
jizml0af from Cincinnati, OH
Well basically i was doing a system on a budget, who wouldn't try this sub? but with reading some reviews i was worried about it just going bad on me. To be honest, i bet the people that it didnt work properly for underpowered it. I purposely waited 6 months to write a review to make it an honest one. Ive been pounding this sub with a 3000 watt amp, just under max, so roughly 2500 watts max to this thing. it kept pounding away. It actually still is, im just waiting on getting my amp back because my amp went before this sub did. So power it like it says, because its been taking it for 6 months for me.

The New Adventures of Earthworm, Grasshopper and Butterfly is a collection of conversations on everyday spirituality. Every morning three seekers after spiritual truth meet for coffee at the Cafe Kavavita. Earthworm, commonly known as Jim Thatcher, first met with Ed Harper, later to be known as Grasshopper, in the early fall. They shared their love of coffee and soon realized they had more in common than coffee. Both had struggled for answers that have plagued humans since shepherds first stared at the night sky. Who are we, why are we here and where are we going? With time, answers came and shortly thereafter so did Butterfly, completing the trio. Together the three meet every morning for steaming coffee and deep conversation.
Stephen Minotaur, Confessions of an Addicted Physician.
How does a man with all the advantages life has to offer fall so low? Expelled from the "the perfect life" as a University Professor, Stephen's descent into darkness slowly robs him of all the moral virtues he once prized so highly until finally he loses everything. Alone, without help, falling further into the pit of darkness, his only solace comes from the needle and the bottle. Exhausted, destitute and broken, he ends up in a dark alley chasing the dope man but instead finds unexpected relief. Florida Writer's Convention Award Winner.
Finally! A Physician's Journey through Addiction, A Practical Guide to Spiritual Recovery has its own web site. James Frey be damned! In the real world, how can a person find a new way of living that is powerful enough to overcome addiction? Where do I begin? How do I do it? And what does a doctor know that I don't? Not so much a memoir as a textbook on the growth of the spirit. Not so much another self-help book as a guide for the weary and the lost.
A Madness of the Heart.
Sitting on the porch of his mountain cabin, Jim tells his friend Larry the long hidden story of his lost love, Lucy. Jim has kept the secret cloistered in the depths of his mind for years, certain it must accompany him to the grave. After flunking out of grad school while "writing poetry on the back of a motorcycle," Jim meets Lucy and is smitten, able to concentrate on nothing else, little realizing that Lucy is only using him. Devastated, Jim falls into the tangle of manic-depression. Climbing back from insanity, he learns that Lucy has been kidnapped and he sells everything he has to follow her. Deep in the jungle of his mind, he is overwhelmed by the madness of his own heart.

Indianapolis 500 winner, current IndyCar points leader and husband of actress of Ashley Judd (rank those however you want) Dario Franchitti was involved in a spectacular airborne crash during this weekend's Firestone 400 at Michigan International Speedway, though fortunately he walked away with nary a scratch. Franchitti was doing his best to hold off Dan Wheldon, currently 4th in points, on Lap 144, when his rear end touched wheels with the front of Wheldon's car. Franchitti's car turned sideways in front of Wheldon, which instantly created a giant wing and a ramp from which his car was launched high into the air at over 200 mph. At one point the car was pointing straight down at the pavement. Franchitti eventually landed upside down on top of Scott Dixon's car, narrowly missing the head of the man who is currently chasing him in points. In addition to those three drivers and their cars, Sam Hornish Jr., Tomas Scheckter, Ed Carpenter and A.J. Foyt IV were also involved in this 7-car crash/aerial display. Though no one was seriously injured, A.J. Foyt IV was showing everyone his helmet, which reportedly featured tire marks from Franchitti's car. Wheldon was absolved of any responsibility for the crash by Franchitti, who said after the race, "It's not Dan's fault and I don't believe it's my fault. We're just out there trying to get an advantage."
It's thought Franchitti was on pace to win the race, having led the most laps despite not finishing with 56 left to go. Tony Kanaan took the checkered flag instead, though Franchitti remains the season's points leader.
Check out the crash from every possible camera angle after the jump.

We stayed for two nights. The room was well decorated and warm on the ground floor so had easy access for my husband in his wheelchair Unfortunately the entrance to the room was L shaped and very very tight for the wheelchair in fact he scuffed his hands. The bathroom door was not wide enough for wheelchair access seeing as he is an amputee he had no chance of getting in .He had to go out into Hotel to use disabled toilet .No seat or grab handles in the shower So I would say it is not really disabled friendly. The meal on Sunday was excellent but Monday not quite so good .Breakfast was excellent (sausages to die for) Staff were great and most helpful. All in all a very enjoyable stay just think they need to get properly adapted rooms in this day and age.Pet friendly

Fulfilling my vision through Voices of Our Future
Japanese parents make a wish for their children and embed it in the characters of their child's name. When I was born, my parents chose the characters "mi", which means "people," and "ho", which means "rice," the staple food of Japan. In so doing, they wished that I would become a leader of the 'people' who would promote democratic society, where all voices are equally heard. My parents also valued rice fields as symbols of Japanese culture and understood the role rice fields played in preserving water and providing animal habitat. By giving me this name, my parents hoped that I would also become a protector of Japan's unique ecological and cultural heritage. In addition, my birthdate is the day that US Congress officially recognized as Women's Equality Day. The older I get, the deeper I connect to the meaning of my name and my birthdate, which calls me to create a vision for myself, my community, and the world.
My vision for my life is to cultivate inner-peace, and be kind, loving, and compassionate to myself, others, and the environment. I hope to share these values with my community and beyond. This vision led me to become an environmental and outdoor educator where I could connect my diverse students with the natural world and inspire them to take responsible actions to sustain our planet. Through teaching, I discovered the need for increased awareness of multi-cultural role models in environmental fields, particularly women of color, to make them more inclusive for all people. This passion became the foundation of my project: "If She Can Do It, You Can Too: Empowering Women Through Outdoor Role Models." I am using my project as a medium to help people see the world through a different lens and become allies in an effort to create environmental career and educational opportunities for people from all walks of life. I hope my project would inspire people to overcome any challenges in order to reach their dreams.
I am already taking steps to achieve this vision in my personal life, in my community, and with my project. I take care of my mind, body and spirit by meditating and surfing regularly, and surrounding myself with diverse friends. In my teaching community, I take leadership roles by developing multi-cultural environmental education curricula and facilitating diversity trainings for co-workers. With my project, I have collected inspirational stories from over 70 women from 7 countries around the world. To share these stories, I developed my website as well as a Facebook page and YouTube channel. Most recently, I have been documenting voices of Native American women activists in America's public land. I created a blog to share my learning, raise awareness of American Indians' rights, and call for actions that need immediate support from all people. I also give presentations at organizations, companies and schools, sharing these stories as a way to inspire people to take actions to create a more equal and just world together.
To better reach people outside of my community, I have several goals that being a Voices of Our Future Correspondent can help me achieve to turn my vision into reality. First, I want to create a network of women from around the world who can benefit from my project. By using Web 2.0, I can promote my project, continuing to write and connect with other women at a more personal level. Second, I can look for opportunities for additional funding and speaking engagements. Third, I hope to find partners who would collaborate with me to produce a documentary on the issues that my project focuses on. Finally and most importantly, I want to learn how to write as a citizen journalist so that I can publish articles in magazines such as World Pulse and ultimately write a book.
In an effort to live my life that honors my name and birthdate, I am seeking to continue on this path toward empowering women through outdoor role models. Becoming a Voices of Our Future Correspondent is the perfect next step on this path.
Hello, Mihoaida,
I loved reading your personal story regarding your name, your birthdate, and how you're living up to the name you were given. I also really like the name of your project, If she can do it, so can you! That is very inspirational!
I am interested in looking at your website if you're willing to share it. I am curious who some of the "outdoor role models" are that you're writing about.
I liked that you wrote that you are including yourself in the first person to be compassionate to! Being compassionate to ourselves is often the hardest person of all to be compassionate/caring to.
Your writing is fantastic, and I am inspired by your goals. I wish you much success in your projects, and please share with all of us at World Pulse/Pulse Wire how we can "follow" you further.
All the best,
Judy Schiller
You have really reached out through web 2.0. to so many communities through your website, blog, and FB page! Your environmental work is very interesting and I admire your lifestyle (if only I was more active!).
being who we are meant to be
Dear Miho,
You have touched on something very important in this entry - that who we are is a wonderful combination of "destiny" and "drive" - what fate lays out for us and what we decide to do along the way. I LOVE getting to read about the story of your name.
I am very touched by your "The Women I Met" website - just today I worked on an environmental restoration project in my community, planting thousands of trees by a river with local women and their families. Working with and caring for the environment reminds us of how to best care for ourselves!
I will very much look forward to reading your posts in the future!
*resolved this year to think twice and to smile twice before doing anything*
