Jacksonville native looking for condo to film movie
A New York University graduate student is returning to her roots to work on her latest project. Kiara Jones is a Jacksonville native and award winning local film maker.
Her latest project is "Christmas Wedding Baby." Jones says it's a story of sisters looking to become the women they want to be. One of them encounters trouble when she realizes the photographer of her wedding is none other than an old flame.
The River City inspired her to return home for filming. Jones says when she grew up she didn't appreciate what all Jacksonville had to offer.
She says some of her filming locations include Edgewood Bakery -- where the crew is currently filming -- Fernandina Beach and Club Continental. Jones continued with the Jacksonville theme and held a casting call for Jacksonville residents to act in the film.
When it comes those aspiring to make films Jones says, 'You got to stick to it."
Jones says they are still in need of one more location for shooting: a contemporary condo. Those who have an condo can visit cultivatedfims.com to contact Jones.

I'm losing only 2 lbs a week on purpose. The first go around I dropped 10 the first week and 3 to 4 every week after but due to my hospital stay I have decided to do it slower (hospital nothing to do with diet). What I love is I can control it. First go around I didn't allow myself any restricted so I could experience the maximum fast. This go around I'm eating restricted sometimes twice in a day and for the 6th week in a row I've lost 2.4 or 2.2 every week. I allow myself more meat and more oil and more of anything IP approved and see how it affects the scale to learn what I can do. I am just amazed how I can control the scale. Love this program.
Getting together with some other IP girls for the first time today to cook together. Can't wait we are all making something to teach the other. I'm making the oatmeal wildberry muffins and my pizza using the tomato soup to make flat bread.... can't wait to see what they will make.
Everyone have a great IP day!!!
100% August through October, off IP till rebooted January 2 through March 31st. Phasing off to maintenance for a while to test the waters!!

BlackBerry Messenger for iOS user guide released
The user guide for BlackBerry Messenger for iPhone has appeared online, reports iMore. Back in May, the company announced that its popular BBM service would be coming to the iPhone this summer. However, as summer nears its end, the software has yet to materialize. But this user guide suggests that could change soon.
Speaking of that user guide (which you can view as a PDF here), these are the features you can expect from BBM on your iPhone:
- BBM profile: Choose a display picture, name and status that your BBM contacts see. You can also view your unique BBM PIN from your profile by tapping Show Barcode.
- Invite: Invite people to chat with you in BBM by scanning a BBM barcode or by entering a phone number, email or BBM PIN. Contacts who don't have BBM yet can download it from your invitation.
- Chat: Share your thoughts and experiences using instant messages, pictures and voice notes.
- Emoticons: Express yourself with classic BBM emoticons.
- BBM Groups: Plan events, track to-do lists, share pictures and chat with up to 30 of your friends, family or coworkers in one group at the same time.
Though BlackBerry's hardware sales have seen better days, the BBM software is an extremely popular messaging solution in many parts of the world. When it is released for the iPhone, it will be competing against other popular messaging apps like iMessage, What's App and Viber.

Jury rules in favor of SUNY Cobleskill in whistleblower case
ALBANY -- A jury rules in favor of SUNY Cobleskill against claims made by a former dean that the school had racially discriminatory admission policies and retaliated against him because he wanted to blow the whistle. The plaintiff also claimed the school recruited under performing students just to meet its financial bottom line.
"A lot of these students would be taking out student loans, said Tom Hickey, the plaintiff in the case. A lot of them are from poor backgrounds to begin with.
From the classroom to the courthouse, there are questions over who SUNY Cobleskill wanted in its halls and why.
Those are students that statistically have an extremely low likelihood of graduating, said Phil Steck, a Democrat assemblyman representing Hickey at trial. What makes this particularly problematic is that they admitted doing it in order to make their budget.
Hickey says once he spoke up, he was demoted, while students who would likely never complete degrees continued enrolling, and were offered no remedial help.
They would admit on the order of 1200 freshman and for a second year class there would be approximately 400, Hickey said. The retention rate was very poor.
Hickey says an alarming number of African-American students were among those caught up in the school's lure.
They certainly weren't forthcoming with these kids in telling them, in being realistic about their chances to succeed without remediation, Hickey said.
SUNY Cobleskill released a statement after a jury spent the afternoon deliberating.
Statement by Dr. Debra Thatcher, Acting President, SUNY Cobleskill in response to Federal Court Ruling
"We are thrilled that a federal court jury has unanimously rejected former dean Tomas Hickey's retaliation claims. The jury ruled quickly and decisively that Mr. Hickey's allegations against the college and his claim that he was terminated as dean for allegedly speaking out against what he claimed were racially discriminatory admissions policies have no factual basis. We're proud of SUNY Cobleskill's nearly 100-year record of educating students and preparing them for career success.
SUNY Cobleskill is committed to admitting students with diverse educational and social backgrounds. Our student body reflects the cultural diversity of the Empire State, and our faculty and staff go to exceptional lengths to help students succeed. Our Freshman Experience program provides students with a road map for success beginning with their first day on campus. Special support initiatives such as the Educational Opportunity Program and the MERITS program provide a structured support environment for students who have experienced academic challenges in the past. Students rank our tutoring program among the best in the SUNY system.
Retention statistics quoted by the press are not accurate. Cobleskill's retention rate is 63 percent. It's important to remember that many students enrolling at Cobleskill only plan to stay for one year and then transfer. Cobleskill provides them with the opportunity to experience college success and determine their career path in a small, friendly environment where the faculty are committed to helping them develop their talents. After that first year, some do transfer to another college to pursue an academic major that is not offered at Cobleskill. That's why SUNY and the college focus on student success rates. We are particularly proud of our student success rates. The most recent SUNY Report card indicates that 85 percent of baccalaureate students who begin their academic careers at Cobleskill and 75 percent of associate students earn their college degree from Cobleskill or another SUNY campus. That's outstanding.
I am very proud of our faculty and staff's commitment to student success and their contributions to making SUNY Cobleskill New York's leading college of agriculture and technology."

Don't like the way Joomla! displays information to your web site visitors?
One of the most powerful features of Joomla!, is the ability of templates to override the HTML being sent to the user.
Come down to Free Geek for our quarterly meeting and we'll show you how to customize Joomla! content articles and contacts.
Wait...quarterly? That's right. We will now be holding meetings on a quarterly basis so come out to see what's going on with Joomla! until later this summer. See you there.

Happy Spring, everyone! (Is it officially Spring yet? It feels like it, ay any rate.) Hey, Joomla! 3 has been out for a while now. How many sites do you all have in production using it? Anyone? Anyone at all? Buehler?? Ha, just kidding... In truth, *tons* of sites are (probably) already using J!3 now, so it's time we start talking more about it. Let's see, we're up to Joomla 3.2.3 as of this writing -- climbing steadily toward that magical 3.5 peak in the not too distant future. In fact, Ben Sandberg will talk briefly during the next meeting (Thursday @ FreeGeek!) about the Joomla! release cycle. Pay attention, folks... J3.5 is coming fast!

The maker of the Sansa, a distant No. 2 to the iPod, has a new way to view downloaded content on a TV. It could turn up the heat on Apple
In the average consumer's home there is a gaping digital chasm between the personal computer and the television set. There are actually many ways to watch downloaded programs and movies on the living room TV—typically they involve the transfer of video files over a home network from a computer to some gadget connected to the TV. But few of them are easy.
Just ask the scores of companies—from Microsoft (MSFT), Apple (AAPL), and Cisco (CSCO) to Netgear (NTGR), Amazon (AMZN), and Netflix (NFLX)—that have tried mostly in vain to bridge that gap.
Memory chipmaker SanDisk (SNDK) hopes to take at least part of the pain out of the equation. On Oct. 22, SanDisk will introduce TakeTV, a large flash-memory drive that, once loaded with movies or TV shows from a PC or Mac, connects to a cradle that in turn connects to a TV. A 4-gigabyte version will sell for $99, the 8-GB model for $149.
Relying on Its Own Factories
Alongside the TakeTV hardware, SanDisk is launching a test version of an Internet video download service called Fanfare. SanDisk's main media partner for the launch is CBS (CBS), which will offer shows like Survivor, CSI: Miami, and some shows from Showtime, including Brotherhood, Dexter, and Fat Actress, for download. Another partner is Jaman.com, the upstart international movie download service (BusinessWeek.com, 2/2/07).
It's a bold move for SanDisk. Best known for its flash-memory cards used in digital cameras, SanDisk has in recent years emerged as the only company with a digital music player that can hold its own against Apple's iPod powerhouse. In part, that's because by relying on its own flash-memory factories, SanDisk can supply one of the most expensive and critical MP3-player components at cost.
In the U.S., SanDisk's Sansa line of players holds a healthy, if distant, second place behind the iPod (BusinessWeek.com, 5/8/06). The most recent figures from market research firm iSuppli peg SanDisk's global sales at 1.8 million units worldwide in the first two quarters of the year, or a little more than 9% of the 20.3 million iPods Apple sold in the same period. The NPD Group reckons that SanDisk sells about 10% of the digital music players in the U.S.
Despite its successes, results at SanDisk have been mixed. On Oct. 18. the Milpitas (Calif.)-based company reported revenue of $1.04 billion, up 38% over the year-ago quarter, but profits were down to $84 million, or 36¢ a share, compared to 51¢ a share in the year-ago period. Investors spanked the stock the next day, erasing more than 15% of its value on warnings that memory prices would fall as retailers lowered prices in preparation for the fourth-quarter holiday season. The company's results were also dragged down by charges related to its acquisition of M-Systems, an Israeli memory chipmaker.
Apple Vulnerable in the Content Arena
SanDisk could steal a bigger march on Apple in the area of video. True, Apple says it has sold 100 million TV shows and 2 million movies through its iTunes Store. And playing video has become a flagship feature on no fewer than four members of Apple's iPod lineup. But its home video player, AppleTV, has been described by Chief Executive Officer Steve Jobs as a "hobby," and sales are thought to be slow. Apple doesn't break out unit sales of the device, but iSuppli analyst Chris Crotty expects Apple to sell fewer than a million units by the end of 2007.
Apple also is widely seen as vulnerable when it comes to adding and keeping content-providing partners. It's had a very public license-renewal spat with NBC Universal that resulted in NBC's programming being yanked. Movie studios, nervous about piracy as well as being locked in to Apple's inflexible pricing structure, have been slow to sign on to iTunes.
Meanwhile, Amazon (AMZN) has recently launched its Unboxed video download service and partnered with TiVo (TIVO) for direct-to-TV video downloads. Netflix has also started its own video download service.
Resonating with Customers
SanDisk CEO Eli Harari says launching Fanfare has less to do with attacking Apple in a potentially tender spot than about establishing a toehold in an incipient market. "The video market right now is just embryonic," he says. "Media companies have spent a great deal of money creating their content and they don't want anyone to tell them how to sell it. And we agree with them."
For David Poltrack, president of CBS Vision, the TV broadcaster's research division, it's a matter of getting the networks' programming in places that consumers will use it. "When we tested the SanDisk product it clearly resonated with consumers," Poltrack says. "There are other ways to do this with more sophisticated products, but because of cost and complexity they're not as attractive. This is going to be selling at Wal-Mart (WMT)."
TV show episodes and movies will sell at prices similar to what's found on iTunes: $1.99 per episode for TV shows, and $4.99 for movies, but the service won't be bound by any strict pricing models. That opens the door to free ad-supported downloads, which Poltrack says is hugely attractive to content companies like CBS. "The consumer prefers the ad-supported model," he says. "They would rather accept ads than pay for content. There is a minority that would rather pay, but the majority wants the content for free."
Combining the TakeTV device with the Fanfare service creates the means of tracking ads, he says. "When you plug in that device to the computer and sign in to the service it knows who you are," he says. "Having people say these are the categories of ads they're interested in—that opens up a lot of ways for advertisers to use this medium creatively."
Taking a low-tech approach on PC-to-TV transfers could make a big difference to consumers weary of technical complexity, says Jupiter Research analyst Michael Gartenberg. "We know consumers want to watch downloaded video on their TVs. But the biggest weakness is the complexity of the home network," he says. "This takes the maddening complexity of the home network out of the equation."

FRANKFORT, Ky. (AP) -- A former Frankfort Plant Board employee has pleaded guilty to stealing more than $4,000 from the city's Wintercare fund in exchange for probation.
Prosecutors say 36-year-old Julie Young embezzled $4,185.41 between October 2006 and July 2007, cashing and pocketing checks from the program.
Wintercare is Frankfort's program to help lower income families pay their heating bills in the cold months. Participants donate additional money on top of their monthly utility bill to fund the program.
In the plea deal Friday that reduced the charge from a felony to a misdemeanor, Young agreed to reimburse the stolen money immediately and submit to two years of supervised probation to avoid a one-year prison sentence.

I may be weird, but I kind of think of manga characters as my friends. And when I see characters from a manga I haven't seen in a while, it makes me feel like I'm seeing some old friends. And that's why this Cross Manage cover gave me the warm fuzzies. Why is Cross Manage on the cover? It's a special one-shot story!
Cross Manage
by Kaito
The gang's all at a special training camp, and it's Sakurai's big chance to tell Misora how he really feels! But you know how tough that can be for a manga character, so things get quite complicated! Luckily, Sakurai's got his friends pushing him to make his move. Unluckily, both Namine and Chiumi aren't giving up on Sakurai just yet. Pile on the normal hijinks and meddling of all the characters, and you've got a really fun chapter of Cross Manage! Find out if Sakurai and Misora confess their love! Oh, and if you've always wanted to see all the characters in swimsuits, thats in here, too. Have fun!
by Tite Kubo
Just when you thought the Soul Reapers were finished, they get a second chance via Urahara's special pills. And now that they have their Bankai back, they stand a much better chance of fending off the Vandenreich's attacks! Hitsugaya fans, this chapter should bring a smile to your face.
by Masashi Kishimoto
Holy hokage, this chapter is something else! The battle against Obito reaches a whole new level of crazy when Naruto and Sasuke combine their powers to create a never-before-seen super jutsu! This manga just keeps upping the ante!
One Piece
by Eiichiro Oda
Rebecca's in the midst of a bloody battle in Block D! Surprisingly, she's holding her own with her unique fighting style where she keeps her back to the moat and lets her opponents fly by her into the water. But with the Flame Flame Fruit on the line, this is no ordinary tournament. Will her unusual technique be enough to survive?
by Mitsutoshi Shimabukuro
The battle between Ichiryu and Midora finally comes to a head, physically and emotionally. Both unleash their final techniques, but only one is left standing. Find out who!
by Naoshi Komi
The girls at school are being harassed by a dirty old man...who's a young girl! Her name is Mikage, and she's got the mouth (and brain) of a drunken sailor! Complicating matters, Marika's told Mikage that Raku's her fiancé. There's just one problem, Mikage's not leaving until she sees them kiss! Will they pucker up?
World Trigger
by Daisuke Ashihara
A-rank Kazama's challenged low-ranked Osamu! It's only a mock battle, but Kazama's motives are unclear. Why would he want to fight such a low-ranking agent, and does Osamu stand a chance?
Yu-Gi-Oh! Zexal
Original Concept by Kazuki Takahashi
Story by Shin Yoshida, Art by Naohito Miyoshi
Production Support: STUDIO DICE
Kaito's in trouble! He's bedridden and on death's door! Luckily, he's got his good robot pal Orbital to protect him! But when Yagumo arrives unexpectedly, Orbital proves he's more than just a wacky robot sidekick! This chapter is full of surprises. I have to say, this manga continues to impress me with its complex storyline. It's so much more than just a "card manga."
Dragon Ball
by Akira Toriyama
The battle between Goku and Vegeta continues to rage! Vegeta thinks he has the upper hand, but Goku pushes himself beyond the point of return when he goes Kaio-ken times three! All this power, and they haven't even gone Super Saiyan yet!

Theo Epstein wrote a long commentary in the Boston Globe today explaining the reasons he left Boston to come to the Cubs.
Epstein said it had nothing to do with the Red Sox tumltuous September, rather it was more about his time being up.
"The reason I am leaving has nothing to do with power, pressure, money, or relationships," Epstein wrote in the piece. "It has nothing to do with September, either."
Epstein cited legendary football coach Bill Walsh who theorized that it was good for coaches and executives to move around every 10 years. Epstein had been with the Red Sox the past decade.

Sarah Palin may not be much of a draw in Spokane.
That's one conclusion – and a charitable one, at that – to draw from an event a little more than a week ago at The Bing Crosby Theater featuring the new biographical movie about Palin. Planned as a chance to raise money for charities, food for Second Harvest Food Bank and pet supplies for Spokanimal, it was a disappointment, said organizer Mike Noder.
"The Undefeated", which is not to be confused with the 1969 John Wayne/Rock Hudson horse opera of the same name, is playing to limited release and generally scathing reviews around the country. But if ever there was a place not beholden to the slings and arrows of the lamestream media, it should be the Inland Northwest. Palin is, after all, one of our own, having been born in Sandpoint and graduating from the University of Idaho before making her way back north to Alaska – which, come to think of it, is another John Wayne movie…

Reporters have been known to bet on almost anything, from when a jury will come back to which candidates will win the races they are covering.
It's a tendency that even some professional gamblers find appalling. So when a Craigslist ad offered a cash prize for the best handicapper of Tuesday's mayoral race, it caught some eyes in the newsroom.
Even more curious, the referenced website seemed to be that of Mike Noder. But a closer look showed that it wasn't his mikeforspokane site, but a mocking site, mike4spokane, set up by someone he describes as a former friend turned critic.
To be fair, the mike4 site is close to being an equal opportunity annoyer of all five candidates. The photo of Mary Verner looks like it was shot by the photographer who did Michelle Bachmann for Newsweek, and the shot of David Condon makes his head seem as round as a balloon. The other three candidate's photos are so out of focus as to be almost unrecognizable.
Only 13 people found their way to the site and left a prediction before the contest closed. The average: Condon 40 percent; Verner 38 percent; Barbara Lampert 9 percent; Noder 7.5 percent and Robert Kroboth 3 percent. Actual results may vary.
Spokane voters can get an early look at their choices for mayor Tuesday night at a candidate forum focused on environmentally friendly businesses.
Four of the five candidates for mayor will be at the candidate forum sponsored by Sustainable Resources INW, a nonprofit that assists businesses to make changes that save money while helping the environment, said Susanne Croft, executive director of the organization.
Incumbent Mary Verner, David Condon, Mike Noder and Barbara Lampert will attend. Robert Kroboth has said he won't participate in any candidate debate.
Croft, who worked as Verner's sustainability coordinator in 2008, will moderate the debate. She said most the questions will be posed by the audience.
"We really don't take a stand on sustainability as a political issue," Croft said. "It's a topic of community concern just like poverty is."
The hour-long forum will start at 6 p.m. Tuesady at the Community Building, 35 W. Main Ave.

The Trouble With Pay-for-Performance
P4P Incentives Too Small
Another problem is if the incentives need to be larger, where is the money going to come from? Very few commercial insurers want to add new money so that means moving away from bonuses. After all, the larger goal is to reduce the cost growth of healthcare. New bonus money has to come from somewhere. Meanwhile, Medicare is trying to do incentives that are budget-neutral, Ryan says.
"The problem here is if we went to 5% or 10% [of revenues], that would get attention, but risk disadvantaging certain types of providers like the safety net. Some could get penalized a lot," he says. "It's a classic trade-off and I'm not sure what the sweet spot is as to the level of incentive anyway."
Another problem with getting traction from P4P on improving value is that such programs focus on process measures instead of outcomes, Ryan says. But measuring outcomes presents its own set of complications, which is one reason why P4P still gets so much attention.
"Providers often don't like outcomes because they argue they are largely out of their control," he says, adding that performance on outcomes measures is quite noisy statistically, "so you might have a rate that looks good one year and bad the next and is a result of statistical noise. There's not much of a quality signal there."
The other problem, of course, is that incentivizing outcomes also creates incentives to avoid providing care for certain types of patients.
"We have risk adjustment, and if it was perfect, we wouldn't have people contending reimbursement on outcomes is unfair, but it's not and never will be," says Ryan.

First of all, the incentive/penalty cycle should not be directed at hospitals. Under that scenario it is presumed that the hospitals can control/influence medical practice and history has proven that its a hard nut to crack in the current culture. Second, the only strategy that has reaped real change over the years is transparency of data/outcomes. The literature if filled with studies on how hospitals and physicians have changed culture and processes when they know that the outcomes will be viewed by the payers and the rest of the world. Just look at NY State - until they published mortality data associated with open heart surgery, people were dying too frequently. Now, its quite a different story. Published physician specific data and they will change too

For the study over 12,000 adolescents (14-16 years old) in eleven European countries responded to questionnaires charting different risk behaviors and their link to psychiatric symptoms. According to researchers, "As many as nearly 30 percent of the adolescents clustered in the 'invisible' group showed a high level of psychopathological symptoms."
While the 'high' risk groups are traditionally easy to identify based on behavioral problems or alcohol and drug use—parents and teachers are often unaware that adolescents in the 'invisible' risk group are at risk, according to Vladimir Carli, at the National Centre for Suicide Research and Prevention of Mental Ill-Health (NASP) at Karolinska Institutet, first author of the study.

Caliper Launches New Platform For Drug Safety Prediction And Oncology Research
HOPKINTON, Mass., Nov. 2, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- Caliper Life Sciences, Inc. (NASDAQ: CALP), a leading provider of tools and services for drug discovery and life sciences research, today announced that its Caliper Discovery Alliances and Services (CDAS) unit has launched a new services offering based on a panel of cellular assays that measure the effects of drug candidates on functional activity of proteins called kinases involved in critical cell-signaling pathways. The technology platform and initial panel of nine assays were developed in collaboration with Pfizer Inc. (NYSE: PFE). The new offering, called In-Cell KinaseScreen ™, is immediately available for compound screening, profiling, and custom assay development services for CDAS' clients, ranging from academia to pharmaceutical companies.
The collaboration between Caliper and Pfizer is focused on developing cellular methods to measure the ability of a compound to inhibit kinase activity. Nine different kinase assays through this collaboration have been developed thus far. The assays can be used early in the drug discovery process to assess compound selectivity, as well as the potential for off-target effects, or unintended inhibition of kinase-controlled pathways other than those against which the drugs were directed. This is important to developing safer drug candidates and reducing late-stage drug attrition. One application of these assays is in the area of oncology, for example, where kinase inhibitors have been used for treating a variety of cancers. These drugs have led to breakthroughs for treating many cancers; however, wider use of such drugs has exposed the potential for serious side effects due to "off-target" activities. Assays that measure kinase functional activity in key pathways in a physiologically relevant cellular context enable oncology researchers, as well as researchers in other therapeutic areas, to better identify compounds that maximize drug target selectivity and minimize potential side effects.

The Communist Party's new leadership has pledged to change China's slowing economy by putting a greater emphasis on private enterprise and reining in huge but far less profitable state-owned businesses. Economists say the party has no choice but to update if it wants to stay in power, but they doubt that a genuine overhaul is in the works.

Chennai Travel Guide
Chennai Local History
Chennai grew out of a small village called Madraspatnam when in 1639 it was selected by members of the East India company for English settlement. In 1644 a small fort was built in the city and named Fort St George.
During the 18th and 19th centuries the city was part of the struggle between the British and the French in their battle for supremacy in India. In 1876 construction of the Madras harbour commenced and was completed in 1905. In 1997 the government of Tamilnadu changed the name of madras to Chennai. Now one of the country's principal ports Chennai is far less congested and polluted than other major metropolitan regions.

Fort St George The fort today houses the Secretariats and the Legislative Assembly of Tamilnadu as well as the St Mary's Church the oldest Anglican church in the east and the fort museum. South of the fort is the War Memorial dedicated to the soldiers who sacrificed their lives in the first World War. The fort museum contains a collection of paintings, exhibits of weapons, uniforms, medals and artefacts.
Santhome Cathedral The name is derived from St Thomas who was believed to have come to Madras in 52AD. The original church was rebuilt as a cathedral in 1606 and has beautiful stained glass windows, beautifully carved wooden plaques and a statue of the virgin Mary.
National Art Gallery and Museum Founded in 1857, this museum and gallery houses some fine works of art and exhibits covering archaeology, geology, botany, zoology, anthropology and more.

Sheltered within the picturesque expanse of the Lake County Forest Preserves, Countryside Golf Club gives players a choice between two courses that roll through scenic terrain certified as an Audubon Cooperative Sanctuary. Before taking to either course, golfers can tee off on the driving range, where 30 hitting stations are trimmed with natural turf and synthetic grass grown fresh each season from seedlings of recycled sneakers. The club's Prairie course and Traditional course are each marked by unique terrain features and challenges. The Prairie course is the longer of the two and eschews trees for wispy shrubbery and open vistas. It demands both hearty drives and accurate approach shots to greens hugged by sand bunkers and unemployed yetis. Through slightly shorter, the Traditional course tasks players with striking precise tee shots from bentgrass tee boxes overlooking tree-lined fairways.
Having opened in 1974, Foss Park Golf Club embarks on its fifth decade of challenging golfers to demonstrate long drives and precise approaches on its 18-hole course. The layout arcs across a grassy patch dotted with ponds, a stream, and clusters of trees, all of which aim to keep golfers as far away from the par of 72 as possible. Rather than lifting weights in an effort blast shots directly through tree trunks, golfers can learn to work shots around obstacles with some time on the lighted grass-tee driving range or a lesson with PGA head pro Gabe Monroe.
Course at a Glance: * 18-hole, par 72 course * Total length of 6,839 yards from the back tees * Course rating of 71.9 from the back tees * Course slope of 126 from the back tees * Four sets of tees per hole
Bittersweet Golf Club's 18-hole course winds through mature hardwoods and the brambly grasses of native wetlands, supporting the ecosystem that continues to thrive around the former bird sanctuary. Recent renovations have made the Bittersweet course more playable, a personality shift that earned it the Daily Herald's 2010 Readers' Choice Award as well as several dates with a local soccer field. The course still retains many of its score-mangling qualities, as evidenced by the presence of water hazards on all but one hole, including two ponds that line the sides of the narrow fairway on the ninth hole, appropriately dubbed "Slim." Bent-grass greens await clubbers at the opposite end of every tee, sporting a slick surface that can complicate even simple putts. To get golfers in shape for the demanding links, Bittersweet's pro shop and staff of PGA instructors outfit clients with the skills, apparel, and divot-tool implants needed to hunt pins with confidence.
Bent-grass fairways and pristine greens connect across 6,484 yards to form Sunset Valley Golf Course's 18-hole, par-72 course. A stream runs diagonally throughout much of the course, which is made navigable by a series of bridges golfers can cross on foot, astride a peppy golf cart, or on the backs of caddies training to be models for rugby shorts. Golfers must give their clubs a pep talk for occasional high-pressure shots, as water hazards come into play on nine holes and bunkers loom throughout the layout. A staff of PGA professionals presides over the pro shop, ready to schedule lessons to remedy chronic slices and manage the delicate egos of short irons. Course at a Glance: * 18-hole, par-72 course * Length of 6,484 yards from the farthest tees * Course rating of 71.8 from the farthest tees * Slope rating of 131 from the farthest tees * Three tee options * View scorecard
Like a massive white bubble hovering over the earth, the domed roof of the Highland Park Field House covers 52,000 square feet of field turf that hosts soccer games, lacrosse drills, and golf strokes. The facility is a privately funded not-for-profit aimed at serving local high schools and other organizations who can use the space for recreational leagues and practice.
Open soccer pickup games occur five nights a week, and the field transforms into an indoor golf range on weekdays. Whether it?s used for instructional lessons or invisible boomerang throwing practice, the range gives a place for sports enthusiasts to practice year-round regardless of the weather outside.
The nine holes of Willow Hill Golf Course sprawl across 87 grassy acres before the scenic backdrop of the Chicago skyline. The par 35 course conjures up visions of the early days of golf with a Scottish links-style design winding for 2,895 yards through low rolling hills and dense rough, left high to punish errant shots and provide cover for napping golfers mid-game. Before or after a round, players can work on finesse around the greens at the 100-yard short-game practice area, or hone their hacks on the driving range, where all 40 stations mimic strokes off the fairway with grass hitting surfaces.
Course at a Glance: * 9-hole, par 35 course * Total length of 2,895 yards from the back tees * Course rating of 34.2 from the back tees * Course slope of 118 from the back tees * Three sets of tees per hole

Delta and Van Zandt FSA offices to close in consolidation measure
COLLEGE STATION — James B. Douglass, Acting Texas State Executive Director for the Farm Service Agency (FSA), today announced that USDA Secretary Thomas A. Vilsack has approved the closure of 15 FSA county offices in Texas, a process that will begin immediately.
After the required notifications have been provided to producers, FSA employees and office landlords, closure dates will be established and made publicly available.
"FSA places the utmost priority on ensuring that our services to producers remain strong as this consolidation process begins," said FSA Administrator, Bruce Nelson. The agency will provide farmers and ranchers affected by closures an opportunity to choose the most convenient neighboring county office with which to conduct their future business with the agency. In addition, all employees in a closing office will be provided an opportunity to continue their work with FSA.
As a federal agency, FSA has been affected by widespread budget reductions made by Congress. Since 2011, the Agency has lost 1,230 permanent employees through voluntary early separation and normal retirement. In addition, FSA has been forced to reduce discretionary administrative expenses by over 30 percent in the last fiscal year alone.
The county offices confirmed for closure in Texas are: Andrews, Cass-Marion, Delta, Hutchinson, Lee, Midland, Mills, Roberts, Rusk, San Augustine-Sabine, Shelby, Upshur-Gregg, Val Verde, Van Zandt and Waller.
For a complete list of FSA county offices nationwide affected by this decision, go to http://www.fsa.usda.gov/officeconsolidations.

About This Palette
By carbonandmilkOct 5, 2012
with COPASO
525 COLOURlovers viewed this page and think carbonandmilk is hotter than hot.
Five causes I'd generously help if I had a billion dollars~
Red Pandas: My local zoo offers 'close encounters' with red pandas - you get to go into their enclosure, learn about them and pat them while you feed them fruit. I bought passes for a friend & I for Christmas last year and it was one of the best experiences I've ever had. 10% of the pass price goes towards red panda conservation efforts - I would gladly give them way more if I could!
Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals: I've adopted two wonderful cats from the SPCA and totally support their cause. Every year they hold an annual appeal in NZ called 'SPCA Cupcake Day' it's a lot of fun and quite a challenge to decorate your cupcakes with an animal theme! My team has organised it at work for the last 3 years and this year was our best ever record, raising around $300NZD.
Fair Trade: I tend to feel like a drop in a bucket when it comes to global causes, so being able to do more than just buy fair trade products would be awesome.
Westpac Helicopter: This is a free service that will come if you have a medical emergency. I have volunteered as a fund raising collector for the last two years and it's quite humbling to have strangers in the street come up to donate money - sometimes they'll share a story of how the Helicopter has saved the life of someone in their family or a friend.
Wellington Free Ambulance: This is another local cause that's really critical to our city. When you call 111 (emergency/911), they're the crew that respond, free of charge. According to their website it costs $21 million NZD to run per year and they're only partly government funded.
