Edited by JohnnyBgood4 on 11/19/2009 09:12:54 MST.
My wife and I are thinking about doing the 100 mile wilderness as a 7 day trip next summer. We've done a small stretch over Barren Mountain and Katahdin, but the rest is pretty unknown to us.When did you go? How long did it take you? Any tips?thanks!-Nate
Sweet pics, John. My favorite state on the AT (because I live there, of course)!Nate, I'd say try to stay at Antlers campsite (see picture above... it's beautiful!), and definitely, absolutely take the side trip to see Gulf Hagas. If nothing else, the first few falls are great, with good swimming holes. If you can make it all the way to the Head Of The Gulf, it's well worth the very long detour.Oh, and Cloud Pond Lean-to is another delightful campsite, despite the long side trail.
Hi Nate,We went in mid September which is a great time of year to go since the daytime temps are great for hiking, there are no bugs, it's still warm enough at night for a fairly light bag (I used a 40 degree bag supplented with my MB UL down inner on the colder nights), and the river crossings are not usually a problem then.We spent 8 days, 7 nights on trail. Although we could have finished in 7 days, the weather on the second half of the trip was spectacular and we decided on route to take the extra day.I went with a party of three, and two of us wanted to do the trip without resupply so we avoided White House Landing and packed for 8 days food plus a little extra. Some day I might try this trip again SUL (this time I had 12 pounds base) in which case I will definetely resupply at White House Landing. Plus get one of their nice fat burgers and drink 5 or 6 beers while I'm there for good measure! My friend that did go to WHL really enjoyed his brief stop and the tasty burger.I would avoid the shelters if you can, as especially when you get further north you can find some really spectacular campsites.If you have any other questions please feel free to send me a PM.
Ryan:Funny that you mentioned Cloud Pond Lean-to. My wife and I stayed there this summer and were appalled at how trashed the place was. Being 5 miles in any direction from even the smallest dirt road, we couldn't figure why the fire pit had used TP in it, there was human crap ten feet from the shelter (in the open area), food trash EVERYWHERE, and mountain house wrappers covering the shelves in the shelter. Worst shelter experience we ever had. That said, the location was beautiful, and if hadn't been for that trash, it probably would have been great. Hopefully if we stop there again some time it'll be better.That Antlers campsite looks incredible. Is that on Moosehead Lake? (Does the AT go by Moosehead Lake?)I'll definitely take your advice on Gulf Hagas too.John:Thanks for the tips. I'm thinking we'll probably pack enough food so we don't need to resupply, but a beer and a burger sound like they'd make for a pretty awesome mid-trip stop. Definitely something to consider.
"Worst shelter experience we ever had."That makes me very, very sad. It wasn't like that when I was last there last year. The shelter itself is dilapidated, for sure, but the setting is nice, and there are good places to tent nearby.I had a similar experience on White Cap mountain, not far from there. First time I was up there, everything was beautiful and it was one of my favorite mountains. Last year, I found human poo, toilet paper, and an entire bag of peanut shells scattered on the summit. Don't even get me started about the people who do things like that to places that are so beautiful and wild.Antlers is on Jo-Mary Lake, if I remember correctly. Much more secluded and remote than Moosehead (which is about 15 miles from the AT where the 100-miles starts).And I'll second the September recommendation. Good time for any hiking in the northeast.
Yeah, it was a huge bummer. I love Barren Mountain -- we've been up there several times before -- but I'd never ventured past the summit to the shelter. I was pretty dismayed, just because of how far away it was from civilization. It wouldn't have surprised me if it was a mile from the road, but five???I took all of the non food / human waste trash back with me, and hopefully the AMC eventually took care of the rest. It's pretty lame when somewhere so beautiful is trashed like that. I didn't think Moosehead was along the AT, but that lake looked huge and I wasn't sure what other large lakes were along the way.As far as September goes, my wife is a teacher, so it's pretty much out. We either go in April and trek through snow here and there, or brave the bugs and humidity in summer. But my experience has been that late July and August tend to be okay in that area of Maine, so we'll probably shoot for then.
August it is! Just don't go there in June without gallons of DEET.There are definitely lots of lakes in northern Maine, big and otherwise. Check out the google map over at Postholer.com and zoom in on the northern end. Lots of good swimming up there!All these pictures and talk to the Maine AT makes me want to go out there right now...
Maine's my favorite place in the world, and yeah, June sucks. My family has a small cabin on Monson Pond in Monson, and my wife and I went up there the first week of June for our anniversary last year. MISERABLE!It didn't keep us from going outside, but we definitely smothered ourselves in DEET.August has always treated me well, though. We did the Bold Coast this last August and it's one of my favorite trips to date, despite the Backpacker Magazine-induced crowds.
I think Jo-Mary Lake is correct. I should go back and look at my maps and edit the picture descriptions. Like I'm pretty sure the stream with the morning fog is Wilson Stream but I can't remember 100% for sure.Sadly, I also noticed that many of the shelters and campsites had more trash than I'm used to seeing in NH. At Antlers camp, not 40 feet from where that sunrise photo was composed, was a fire ring with half burned trash in it. Some people are quick to blame the fisherman and other non-hiking outdoorsman, but I also noticed the problem near some of the shelters and in the mountains too. That's one reason why I recommended avoiding the shelters if you can.But for the most part, other than at a few certain shelters and campsites, the area is quite beautiful.
"Sadly, I also noticed that many of the shelters and campsites had more trash than I'm used to seeing in NH. At Antlers camp, not 40 feet from where that sunrise photo was composed, was a fire ring with half burned trash in it."Jeez, that's still a huge bummer. I guess you could make the point that there are more caretakers (AMC, large crowds of concerned hikers, etc.) in NH than in far northern Maine, but... that's just ridiculous.I've seen more than my fair share of trash at shelters, too... once it was a ton of trail magic left at a shelter by some folks who obviously weren't thinking of how the hot dog packages, soda cans, ketchup bottles, etc. were going to get out of there. Good intentions, just poorly thought-out. I think the burnt trash in a fire ring is also with good intentions, but once again-- poorly thought out. Which is why it's good to catch the people in the act and tell them why it's a bad idea, rather than scold after the fact.
Grenville, ME is at the southern tip of Moosehead Lake, 10 + road miles north of Monson where the AT crosses Rte 15/6.A side trail leading to The Gulf Hagas soon passes the Auger Falls. Don't miss it. It is very close to the AT.The Antlers is the site of an old Hunting Lodge with a view of Katahdin from the beach. No bulidings remain.I do not believe White House Landing accepts food drops any more. It is a long 2 hour drive to the nearest PO on logging roads. Great meals, however, and a grab bag for thru-hikers.Ice cream is sold by the pint.John, fantastic photo of fog rising on the Pleasant R.!

The IIE's Lean Division offers a number of awards to recognize the contribution of individuals to advancing the knowledge and practice of lean concepts. The Lean Division's Teaching Award is given out annually to honor the services of a person/group of people who have developed curriculum and disseminated courses in the subject area. Read more about the award.
We are converting some processes to lean. We have a high manual labor content in our processes and all work is done with pneumatic guns. We have combined the following three processes: one person on the first process (with work-in-process in between), two people on the second process (with WIP in between), and two people on the third process. The new process is as follows: Two people complete the first and second process on one table (with no inventory in between), and two people complete the third process.
The new process is somewhat imbalanced, and the output is down about 20 percent since the change to lean. We are discussing putting a small length of conveyor between the processes or moving work content around to balance the tables. Any suggestions?Answer

BJP begins protest outside BHU in Varanasi against EC's defence of rally ban
The Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) began a protest on Thursday against the Election Commission's defence of a returning officer's decision to ban a rally that was to be addressed by the party's prime ministerial candidate Narendra Modi in the congested Beniya Bagh ground of Varanasi.
BJP workers protested outside the Banaras Hindu University. Meanwhile, RAF personnel have been deployed outside the university.
Earlier today, Modi had tweeted and urged his party workers to maintain peace and order while protesting.
"I appeal to my Karyakarta sisters and brothers to maintain peace and ensure that people do not face any difficulty" he tweeted.
BJP is outraged after the district administration denied permission to Modi for holding one of the two rallies in Varanasi on Thursday.
The party will protest in Varanasi and Delhi against the decision. BJP leader Arun Jaitley, along with Amit Shah, will lead the protest in Varanasi.
The BJP had sought permission to organise five events which included a rally by Modi in Beniya Bagh ground in Varanasi.
Modi is contesting from the holy city of Varanasi that will go to polls in the last phase of elections on May 12.
BJP senior leader Arun Jaitley called the move as unprecedented, and said it was a deliberate interference in conducting free and fair polls in the world's largest democracy.

There are many considerations when moving applications from on-premise to cloud. It is critical to understand the benefits and also challenges of this migration. A successful migration will result in lower Total Cost of Ownership, yet offer the same or higher level of robustness. Migration to cloud shifts computing resources from your data center, which can yield significant advantages provided that the cloud vendor an offer enterprise-grade quality for your application.

Overgrown applications have given way to modular applications, driven by the need to break larger problems into smaller problems. Similarly large monolithic development processes have been forced to be broken into smaller agile development cycles. Looking at trends in software development, microservices architectures meet the same demands. Additional benefits of microservices architectures are compartmentalization and a limited impact of service failure versus a complete software malfunction....

Manufacturing has widely adopted standardized and automated processes to create designs, build them, and maintain them through their life cycle. However, many modern manufacturing systems go beyond mechanized workflows to introduce empowered workers, flexible collaboration, and rapid iteration. Such behaviors also characterize open source software development and are at the heart of DevOps culture, processes, and tooling.

No. 21 West Texas A&M blasts Angelo State
email@example.com SAN ANGELO — Dustin Vaughan threw for 236 yards and three touchdowns as No. 21 West Texas A&M blasted Angelo State 35-9 for sole possession of the Lone Star Conference lead Saturday night at San Angelo Stadium.
Khiry Robinson ran for a career-high 145 yards on 18 carries, and Curtis Slater picked off two passes, including one for a second-half touchdown for the Buffs (5-1 overall, 4-0 LSC), who play Abilene Christian (4-2, 2-2) this Saturday in Canyon.
Blake Hamblin threw for 264 yards and a touchdown for the Rams (3-3, 2-1), who were 0-for-3 inside the red zone with two missed field goals and an interception.
No. 13 Midwestern 47, No. 18 West Alabama 27
LIVINGSTON, Ala. — Midwestern State running back Keidrick Jackson and quarterback Brandon Kelsey both ran for three touchdowns — one each in the final eight minutes — to lift the defending LSC champions past the Tigers from the Gulf South Conference on Thursday at Tiger Stadium.
Jackson finished with 193 yards on 21 carries, while Kelsey had 117 yards on 16 carries. Midwestern (4-1) rolled up 348 of its 414 total yards on the ground.
West Alabama (4-2) led 24-14 at halftime. However, Midwestern recovered a West Alabama fumble at the Tigers' 48 to set up the go-ahead touchdown, a 1-yard run by Jackson, to make it 28-24 with 3:27 left in the third quarter. The Tigers cut the lead to 28-27 early in the fourth quarter, but Jackson had a 45-yard TD run with eight minutes remaining, and Kelsey iced the game with a 1-yard run with just 59 seconds left.
The Tigers play ACU on Nov. 3 at Shotwell Stadium.
Delta State 38, Tarleton State 35
STEPHENVILLE — Andrew Jones kicked a 33-yard field goal as time expired to lift Delta State past the Texans in the nonconference game Saturday.

After Delta reeled off 21 unanswered points to take a 35-28 lead, Aaron Doyle threw a 27-yard touchdown pass to Arthur Buckingham to tie the game at 35 with 2:58 left.
It remained tied until Kenny Barnes picked off a Doyle pass and returned it 36 yards to the Tarleton 19 with 53 seconds remaining. Four plays later, Jones booted the game-winning kick for the Gulf South Conference team.
Incarnate Word 31, Commerce 9
SAN ANTONIO — Zach Rhodes threw for 189 yards and two touchdowns, and the Cardinals defense recorded a school-record eight sacks to snap a four-game losing streak in the LSC game.

Potentially more important to the improvement of their condition in the country than political engagement, American Muslims need to develop cultural authority — the attainment of a position of respect and authenticity as equal, contributing members of society. This may be achieved by acting as culture producers in the arts, entertainment, and even the national vocabulary, so that the public has a familiarity and regard for American Muslims — a demographic that spans every conceivable ethnic, racial and social group in America. In fact, cultural production will show that the American Muslim community is a cross-section of America.

Path to Ph.D.
Students are funded for graduate training at Princeton for five years. During the first two years, students complete their course and language requirements, culminating in a general examination at the end of the second year. Students devote the next three years to researching and writing the dissertation, drawing upon both Princeton's rich library holdings and archives across the world. During this time most also choose to precept (work as a teaching assistant). Full details are available through the Guidelines for Graduate Study in History. For a more informal look at the career of a history student, we've also sketched out a typical path to the Ph.D. here:
Year One
The first year is an exciting and challenging one for many students as they plunge into the study of history. All students come together to take History 500, Introduction to the Professional Study of History. Over the next two years they take at least eight more courses, choosing from a variety of formal history courses, independent readings with faculty, and courses outside the department. Students also get a taste of professional historical writing by completing an article-quality research paper by the end of their first year.
Most students also take advantage of the wealth of opportunities in the intellectual community at Princeton, such as the weekly seminars sponsored by the Davis Center and other organizations on campus.
Students generally use the summer between their first and second year to study a language, at Princeton or abroad, or to conduct archival work for their second research paper.
Year Two
Students complete all coursework, pass all language requirements, and write a second research paper before standing for the general exam in the spring term. Most try to finish their coursework before the spring to leave lots of time to prepare for general exams. Students also begin thinking more seriously about their dissertation topic during the second year.
The General Exam
Preparation for the general exam begins in the fall. Students choose faculty as examiners for three fields (one major and two minor) and collaborate with them to draw up reading lists. In the spring semester students read for their exams--an intensive immersion in the literature of their fields that builds a foundation for future teaching and research.
The exam consists of a week-long take-home exam and a two-hour discussion with faculty examiners. Performance on the exam is evaluated as pass, fail or distinction.
The Dissertation Prospectus
Students begin focusing on their dissertation project during the summer between their second and third years in an four-week prospectus seminar with their cohort. During the seminar students complete a detailed prospectus that outlines their research agenda and dissertation project. Their faculty advisors will read, comment upon, and approve this prospectus by December of the third year.
The Third to Fifth Years:
Third, fourth and fifth years research and write their dissertations, present papers at professional conferences, and precept. Many go abroad to research, while others enjoy the cool stacks of Firestone's C-floor. Those who stay in Princeton also host conferences and organize workshops.
Under the guidance of their primary supervisor, students craft an original and significant contribution to knowledge based on original research. As they progress, they consult with other scholars in their field who eventually make up the committee that evaluates the dissertation.

Pitching Warmup
By Steven Ellis former Chicago Cubs pitching pro
Here's a baseball pitching warm up routine for game days that can help you better prepare for your performance.
Head down to the bullpen about 30 minutes before game time. Bring a warm up jacket with you. You'll want to put it on after you're done warming up your body to pitch.
The first thing you'll want to do is run about 10 light wind sprints, 90-100 feet, and then stretch your arms and legs for about 5 or so minutes.
Throw easy at a short distance to warm up the arm. Slowly lengthen the throwing distance into a 70-100 feet toss. This might take about 10 minutes, but it is also a great time to get ready for the game mentally!
Once you've long tossed, start throwing fastballs off the mound. This will be your most important pitch. Throw your first fastballs on the outside half of the plate to stretch the arm out. Throw fastballs for a few minutes.
Next, alternate with your off-speed pitches - fastball/curve, fastball/curve, etc. - until you are comfortable, then move on to the change up, same alternating style. Then slider and so forth.
If you are the home team, end your bullpen and pitching warm up 5 minutes early. If you are the road team, end your bullpen and pitching warm up when the game is about to start.
If you are a slow starter this may tell you to start a little earlier: 15-20 minutes of throwing.
Also, on cold days you must add another 5 minutes as it is hard to loosen up on such days. Warmer days you can cut down on the amount of throws, your bullpen may take only 12 minutes on such warmer days.
Much of warming up in the bullpen depends on personal style. You have to find out what works for you.
Remember, during your baseball pitching warm ups, a bullpen is to establish feel as well as mentally getting ready for the game.
After the game, stretch for 10 minutes, then ice for 15-20 minutes.

Reviewed by Julie :: a slightly unhinged fabric junkie! She is stitching and crafting obsessed as well as being addicted to tea and cake. She is a work at home Mumma to three energetic little girls and blogs at procrasticraft.
Learning to Bake Allergen-Free: A Crash Course for Busy Parents on Baking without Wheat, Gluten, Dairy, Eggs, Soy or Nuts is written by Collette Martin, a self-described "food allergy mom". She has experience and understanding of the complexities that are multiple food allergies and has overcome the challenges of feeding a family where those allergies are a constant threat to health and wellbeing. Published by The Experiment (June 19, 2012).
For as long as I can remember, food has been one of my passions. As a small child, I remember learning to make scones with my great-grandmother and I now enjoy spending time in the kitchen with my three girls. Our youngest daughter has allergies to both eggs and dairy and since her diagnosis a year ago, I have struggled to find recipes that are suitable for her to not only eat, but where she can participate in the preparation. What child doesn't love to lick the beaters? Food in our home has never been something we just buy with little regard, we have always been careful about our choices and we read the ingredients on the packets. Now though, with the severe allergies we are faced with, we can take nothing for granted.
It is in this context that I can say that this book has been a life-saver for me! The pages provide many recipes for baked goods (and they are seriously good, try the Coffee Cake with Streusel Topping, the Apple Cinnamon Breakfast Cake and the Blueberry Scones, just for starters), though what I have found most helpful are the twelve baking lessons (each its own chapter) including "No Butter, No Problem", "Baking Without Eggs", "The Allergen Free Pantry" and "Replacing Wheat". The author not only provides recipes with replacements, but she has taken the time and effort to explain how and why each replacement works which means that I have been able to transfer the knowledge and develop or adapt my own recipes. For that, this is worth every penny.
If you are struggling with food allergies or intolerances in your home, I highly recommend you pick up a copy, the explanations have been life changing for us, our daughter can fully participate in family meals and celebrations and the rest of us don't feel like we are "missing out" either – we can still have the most amazing and delicious cakes and baked goods, and I think they taste even better as they are safe for us all so we can relax while eating.

Art, Copyright, Intellectual Property, Technology
All too often we seem to see people making copyright claims over public domain works. It's especially egregious when we see museums do this kind of thing, as happens every so often.
While museums in some other countries like to try to claim that they can create a new copyright on the digital scan of a public domain image, in the U.S. it is generally considered settled law that museums cannot create such a new copyright. Public domain is the public domain….
Thus, while it's exciting to see that the famed Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York has released a treasure trove of high-res images of public domain works for people to search and download, it's ridiculous and depressing that they're effectively claiming copyright over them, even while stating the images are in the public domain. And, no, this isn't just a case where the Met's terms and conditions discussing copyright don't even take into account the possibility that some works may be in the public domain. It has a separate section, specifically labeled "public domain" — and then tries to tell you what you can and cannot do with those works:
Images of Works of Art that are in the Public Domain. Images of works of art that the Museum believes to be in the public domain which are identified as Open Access for Scholarly Content (OASC) on the Site may be downloaded for limited non-commercial, educational, and personal use only, or for fair use as defined in the United States copyright laws. In addition, authorized non-commercial uses for such images shall include scholarly publications in any media. Users must, however, cite the author and source of such images, and the citations should include the URL "www.metmuseum.org," but not in any way that implies endorsement of the user or the user's use of the images.
Except that's not true. You can't put any restrictions on works in the public domain. They can be used for commercial use. Fair use doesn't even apply, because there is no copyright. Users do not have to cite the author and source, though it might be a nice thing to do.
You would hope that the folks at a museum like the Met would actually understand the basics of copyright like this. However, it's yet another indication of how we now live in a "permission culture" where even people who should understand what the public domain is, don't seem to get it. Last year we wrote about a museum in Amsterdam that did things right: offering up not just high-res images of public domain works, but additional tools to help the public do more things with those works. The Met should take some notes from the folks over at the Rijksmuseum.

MADISON COUNTY, Ill. (KSDK) - The Madison County Sheriff's Office is asking the public to be on the lookout for a black backpack that is believed to have fallen off a pickup truck that was traveling from Holiday Shores to Edwardsville, Illinois.

A search has been conducted of the route traveled by the pickup, but were unable to locate the bag.
The sheriff's office is asking parents to talk to their children about telling a parent or calling 911 if they find the backpack.
If anyone locates the backpack, they are asked to contact the Madison County Sheriff's Office at 618-692-4433 or 618-296-4820.

After deliberating for parts of five days, the jury of seven woman and five men agreed Williams was guilty on all of the smuggling counts he faced, including 20 that carry the possibility of the death penalty. Williams drove the truck that carried about a hundred illegal immigrants on a smuggling run from Harlingen to Houston in May of 2003. Federal prosecutors were able to convince jurors that Williams knew the immigrants were in trouble because of the heat inside his truck trailer and failed to stop and help them. Williams' attorney Craig Washington says he'll call about 20 witnesses when the penalty phase of the trial starts on Wednesday.
"The jury has to decide whether to take another human beings life, so everything is on the table when they do that. Everything about a human-being that the jury wants to know to decide whether the person lives or dies is important so nothing is any less important or more important, I don't think, than anything else. That's the most important decision you can ever make about another human being."
Williams was remarkably calm as U.S. District Judge Lee Rosenthal read the verdict, despite the fact that he could be sentenced to death under a 1994 federal law that allows the death penalty if a person dies during a human smuggling attempt.
"I think it was one of the deputy marshals that told me recently that given a person in his position, they've never seen anyone that calm. The people over at the FDC, I'm told, when he comes down to go and visit, that the other inmates pray for him and the other inmates say how can you be this calm when I'm only looking at ten years."
The actual masterminds behind the plan were sentenced to prison terms without the possibility of the death penalty. Joe Vail is the director of the Immigration Clinic at the University of Houston Law Center and says the guilty verdict won't change much because human smuggling has become much more lucrative.
"It's now much tougher to get across that border and people have to pay a much higher sum to get across that border. The people involved with the smugglers are some of the lowest of the low in terms of their charactors and how they treat their fellow human-beings. So I don't think this is going to dissuade a lot of them. I think they're going to take this and do this again and I think it's going to be very difficult to stop them from continuing to do it."
A judge in 2005 declared a mistrial when jurors couldn't decide on a verdict for all the counts included in Williams' first trial.

The project aims to develop and test three tools. Two will be for local government use, to model and to value levels of CS in their area. The third will be a set of questions that can be asked in surveys to find out whether and how severance affects local people. The tools can be used by local government to test proposed transport policies, development plans and interventions to assess whether they will affect severance. They can also be used by researchers to find out whether and how CS affects people's mobility, social isolation, and short- and long-term health and wellbeing. The survey can also be used in national surveys so that a more complete picture of this problem is obtained across the UK.

The honors continue to roll in for Grand Haven senior Abby Cole.
The senior who led the Buccaneers' varsity girls basketball team to back-to-back Class A state championships, was named to the All-State Dream Team by the Detroit News and the Detroit Free Press.
The 6-foot-5 Cole, who averaged 14 points, 9.5 rebounds and 8.7 blocked shots per game, helped the Bucs win 51 consecutive games over the past two seasons. She will play volleyball at the University of Michigan next year.
Cole was also named to the Basketball Coaches Association of Michigan's Best of the Best team.
Earlier this year, Cole was a runner-up for the state's Miss Basketball award, and was named the Associated Press Class A player of the year.
Buccaneers' coach Katie Kowalczyk-Fulmer recently tabulated Cole's career statistics. Her 535 career blocks over three years puts the Bucs' senior fourth on the Michigan career list. Grandville's Alyssa DeHaan holds the state record with 718 blocked shots over her four-year varsity career.
As a senior, Cole blocked 234 shots, which is third on the single-season list. Mackenzie Kudron of New Boston Huron holds the single-season record with 257 blocks.
Cole had 158 blocks as a junior and 143 as a sophomore. She didn't play on the varsity team as a freshman.
Cole's 17 blocked shots against Holland Christian earlier this year is fourth on the all-time single-game list. Cole also blocked 16 shots in a game twice and 15 once, putting her on the single-game record list several times.
Cole's 12 blocks against Westland John Glenn in this year's state semifinals set a Michigan state record for blocks in a semifinal or final game. She had 11 blocks against Inkster in last year's semifinals, and 10 against Grosse Pointe South in this year's title game.
"When I submit all of this, her name's going to be all over the record books," Kowalczyk-Fulmer said.

For 52 years, the Lasker Medical Research Awards -- known as "America's Nobels"
-- have celebrated the scientists, physicians, and public servants whose
accomplishments have made major advances in the understanding, diagnosis,
treatment, prevention, and cure of many of the great cripplers and killers of
our century.
This year, in an unprecedented action, two of the three awards are going to one institution -- Hopkins. The 1997 Albert Lasker Award for Special Achievement in Medical Science will be awarded to Victor A. McKusick, M.D., professor of medical genetics, for founding a new branch of medicine called medical genetics that has led to the mapping of tens of thousands of genes and to the Human Genome Project. The 1997 Albert Lasker Clinical Research award will go to Alfred Sommer, M.D., Dean of the School of Hygiene and Public Health, for his discovery that simple vitamin A supplementation prevents blindness and life-threatening infections in millions of children living in the poorest nations.
Read in greater detail about the singular achievements of these two medical pioneers Dr. Victor A. McKusick and Dr. Alfred Sommer.

UofL Theatre opens new season with 'Come Down Burnin'
LOUISVILLE, Ky. –"Come Down Burnin," by Kia Corthron, opens the fall season for University of Louisville's Department of Theatre Arts.
Presented by the department and its African American Theatre Program, the play will be performed Sept. 30 – Oct. 4 at 8 p.m. nightly plus a 3 p.m. matinee on Oct. 4. All performances will take place at the The Playhouse at 1911 S. 3rd Street.
Kia Corthron's drama tells the story of two sisters who grapple with the effects of poverty, ignorance and disability in order to provide for their children.
Directed by Nefertiti Burton, associate professor and associate dean for the College of Arts and Sciences for International, Diversity and Outreach Programs, the play explores the challenges faced each day as the characters attempt to overcome obstacles in their Appalachian home.
"Sometimes conditions force good people to make decisions that society may condemn," Burton said. "Scraping by to feed your children and attempting to make a living put people in positions most of us can relate to."
Burton said that the explosive topics in the play, such as abortion, will engage the audiences. Talkback discussion between audience, cast and guests are scheduled for most performances.
Season tickets for all five plays this season are $50 for the general public, $40 for UofL employees and people 65 and older and $35 for students. Individual show tickets are $12 for the general public, $8 for faculty, staff, students and senior citizens. For tickets and information, call 502-852-6814 or visit louisville.edu/a-s/ta/

Council Budget
Every year the Council formulates a budget. This aims to provide financial stability and long term prosperity while delivering services within affordable limits.
The budget setting process passes through a number of stages and takes account of factors such as funding available from the Government and local taxpayers, key local priorities and changes in legislation.
Budget book (Estimates)
A proposed budget (also known as the Budget Book and Forecasts) is approved by Members at the end of February or beginning of March. The council publishes an Estimates book setting out, in detail, the agreed budget for the forthcoming financial year.
- Budget book and Forecasts 2015-2018
- Budget book and Forecasts 2013-2016
- Estimates 2012 - 2013
- Estimates 2011 - 2012
- Estimates 2010 - 2011
- Estimates 2009 - 2010
The budget proposal provides further detail and amendments such as additional policy options or savings agreed to the original Estimates.
The 2011-12 and 2012-13 budget Resolution Proposals can be found included within the Estimates 2011-12 and Estimates 2012-13.
- Council Budget Resolution 2015-2016
- Council Budget Resolution 2014 - 2015
- Council Budget Resolution 2013 - 2014
- Council Budget Resolution 2010 - 2011
- Council Budget Resolution 2009 - 2010
- Council Budget Proposal 2009 - 2010
Council Tax
After the Estimates and budget are agreed the level of the Council Tax is set. The Council Tax Explained booklet is produced each year and is made available to Council Tax payers.
Council Tax explained 2015-2016
Section 251 Budget Statement
This document (previously known as the Section 52 Statement) provides information on the planned Schools Budget and the financing of local authority schools using a local funding formula.
A separate statement is also produced at the year end to show actual schools expenditure.
Local authorities are required under Section 251 of the Apprenticeships, Skills, Children and Learning Act 2009 to prepare and publish these statements.

You are not alone. I really loved the Naturally collection last year, but this time, MAC returned to it's glittery, pore-emphasizing roots (at least that's how it comes out on pale NW skin).

Thursday Q & A: Chris from Ol' Bag of Donuts
This week's guest on the PocketDoppler.com Thursday Q & A is Chris Lempesis from Ol' Bag of Donuts . Chris, along with Adam and Gene, do a simply great job with their little space on the Internet and are always a great read. In addition to getting Chris's take on the Packers on general, we'll also find out firsthand what it's like for a Packers fan living in the enemy territory of Minnesota.
Ol' Bag of Donuts, which I think is by far one of the most creative names for a Packers blog, is obviously named for former Packers Center Frankie Winters. How did that come about?
Adam, Gene and I had the idea to start a Packers blog probably a month and a half before we got the site up-and-running (how's THAT for a quick turnaround?). We tossed out a bunch of different names, but nothing seemed to resonate with us. "Dan Devine's Dog" was an early front-runner. Dark? Yes, but sort of funny, too – at least to us. Then – and this is the God's honest truth – Adam, myself and a friend of his were at an Indiana Pacers/Minnesota Timberwolves game one night (the tickets were free, keep in mind). After a couple of beers, the topic of the blog name came up again. Adam, in a moment of genius, turned to me and said simply, "How 'bout Ol' Bag of Donuts?" I replied, "Wait – Frankie Winters' nickname? Yeah – YEAH!" We then ran it by Gene and he absolutely loved it, as well. The rest is, as they say, history – or, at the very least, proof positive that good things can come out of Minnesota Timberwolves games.
How is it working with a 'team' of contributors? Do you often have 'staff meetings' to make sure you don't overlap in your content or isn't it a real concern.
It's awesome to have three of us running the site. Adam and Gene are really great writers and having three guys, instead of just one, means you get three unique viewpoints and three unique styles. That allows for a diversity of content which a lot of blogs simply don't have. And, speaking personally, OBOD wouldn't be half as fun as it is if those guys weren't involved.
We've never really had staff meetings, per se. Starting the blog was a group effort, of course, but the only real "meeting" I can remember is Adam and I getting together to go over our draft coverage plans this year. As far as overlapping each other in content, that's never really been an issue. We're pretty good about keeping each other up-to-date on what we're doing so we don't have two guys writing, essentially, the same post at the same time.
One of the things I really like about your Blog is you have a couple of yearly series you do, currently with Friendly Fire. Is it easier to write posts in a series or are the one-offs better?
The one-offs are certainly easier, because you can just write the post, give your thoughts and move on to the next thing. The series tend to be more difficult because of all the research you have to put in to them (especially with something like the All-time 53 man roster…man, that was a doozy to pull together). Ultimately, those are the most rewarding, though, because once you've finished, you really feel like you've covered the full scope of whatever that series is about, be it an all-time roster, our draft coverage or the Friendly Fire stuff.
I know you and Adam (not sure about Gene) reside in the Land of 10,000 Lakes, aka Minnesota. Besides bar time being an hour earlier, does it get a little rough for you guys come Football Season?
Gene doesn't live in the Twin Cities anymore, so he's been able to get away from it. But for Adam and I, it certainly can get rough at times. Some idiot cracked – probably by kicking it – Adam's Packers tailgate cover while he was at work one day last season, for example. And once, while out with my brother for drinks during the summer of '05, a big, fat Vikings fan screamed "(Expletive) you!" at me while I was wearing my Favre jersey (oh, the irony!). The thing that bothers me – and every other Packers fan in the Twin Cities – the most is that Vikings fans truly believe their team stands toe-to-toe with ours, in every aspect. Nevermind the fact that their team has won zero championships, couldn't sell out games (playoffs included) until you-know-who got here and only has a stadium that's loud because they artificially pump in noise. None of that matters to them and it simply baffles me. The trick is to just keep telling them over-and-over that the only score that really matters is 12-0. That shuts them up.
Last week in our Q & A with Greg Bedard, his responses in regards to the CBA & the 2011 NFL Season weren't that hopeful. What are your thoughts on those topics, which are really one in the same.
First, let me say that it's freakin' awesome to be following someone like Greg Bedard. I feel like A-Rodg following you-know-who (or, at the very least, Brian Griese following John Elway…okay, maybe Jay Fiedler following Dan Marino).
As for the 2011 season, I'd tend to agree with Bedard. Both sides are really digging in already and we're still a year away from any sort of deadline. The players seem dead set on having the owners open their books so they can see for themselves what kinds of profits/losses the owners are experiencing. I can't see the owners actually doing such a thing. This will be a major point of contention in an already contentious battle.
Plus, you have to factor this in: The NFL is not only as big as its ever been, in terms of popularity, but it seems to be growing by leaps and bounds every single year.That means that these negotiations mark a major historical moment – and a major crossroads – for the league and the NFLPA. Neither side will want to go down as the side who came out on the losing end of such a moment. Hence, we're in for a prolonged battle. My guess is that we'll see football in 2011, but a much-abridged version. A 10-12 game regular season with the regularly scheduled postseason sounds about right. I hope I'm wrong.
In recent Friendly Fire Training Camp pieces you mentioned the two most interesting & perhaps important battles will be between Bigby/Burnett & College/Spitz. In those posts you gave the edge to Burnett & Spitz. If you had to lay a million on one of those to be right, which pick of yours do you have the most confidence in?
This was a much tougher question to answer before we found out about Atari Bigby's still-problematic ankle. With what we now know, I'd definitely lay my money on Burnett. I always figured it was just a matter of time before he took the starting job, anyways. Now I'm certain he'll claim it before the end of camp.
Who is going to be the player in Training Camp that no one really knows right now but will be on the tip of everyone's tongues come the season opener.
Sam Shields. The guy is lightning-fast and, if he can learn how to field punts/kickoffs, could bring a special element to the return game. He's intriguing as a corner prospect, as well.
Call your shot, how far with the Packers go this year?
Wally, my man, I live my life by many well-worn philosophies. Two of the biggest are, "Go big or go home" and "Grip it and rip it." So, in keeping with those philosophies, I'll say this: Green Bay 27, Baltimore 20 in Super Bowl XLV. A-Rodg ghost-busts the Favre spectre in high style, winning the game's MVP award. In a league that appears to be as wide-open as ever, why not us, right?
This may tie in with the above question, but if you had to pick one thing, just one, what excites you most about this upcoming Packers Season?
For the past few seasons, the Packers have consistently been the league's youngest team. It seems like Ted Thompson is finally beginning to move past that philosophy and is now more interested in moving forward with the core that's in place. So I'm incredibly excited to see this core group of youngsters take the next step in the growth process together. They've gone through the growing pains. Now it's time to really establish themselves. If they do it like I think they can, this team's going to be special for many years to come.
Time to share your wisdom, what advice would you give to sports bloggers (or bloggers in general) as it relates to starting or maintaining their blogs?
The idea that you need to have a clear vision of what you want your blog to be before you start it is extremely incorrect. Adam, Gene and I had no idea what our blog was going to be before we launched. All we knew was that we loved writing, loved the Packers and felt we all had something to say. The rest literally just worked itself out. I WOULD say you should feel like you have something to say, though. Don't just start a blog because you think it's cool.
As for maintaining one, just make sure you post every day (or, at least, every couple of days). Not only does that help you grow an audience, but for you, personally, it helps you to become more invested in what you're doing. By having that happen, you will work harder and your posts will be better.
…and now for the lighting round.
Your all-time favorite Packers player is:
LeRoy Butler. In addition to being a great, great player, I had the opportunity to interview him while working for The Mining Journal (Marquette, Michigan) during the '08 season. The man is a total gentleman and, obviously, extremely insightful.
Your favorite Packers blog to read that is not named Ol' Bag of Donuts is:
Cheesehead TV , with Pocket Doppler being my second favorite. Not looking for brownie points there, either. It's true.
If there were no Packers, you would have a blog about:
Hot chicks, man…I kid, I kid. I'd have a blog that would tackle totally random things, ranging from other sports (mainly hockey and baseball) to pop culture (I'm a big music/movies/TV guy) to my thoughts on daily life. I'm not sure anyone other than my friends and family would ever read such a blog, but I think that could help get me by in a non-Packers universe.
If you were a pro football player, your position would be:
As much as I'd love to say quarterback, I'm simply too overweight to say that with a straight face. I'd have to go with center, definitely following in the Frank Winters/Mike Flanagan mode. I'd survive on pizza and beer and would be the best quote on whatever team I was a part of.
Should I ever run into you at a bar, I should buy you a _____________ for taking the time to answer these questions.
If you had asked me that while I was in college, I would have answered with "Jager bomb." Since I'm, you know, an adult now, I'll simply say a beer. It doesn't have to be a Sam Adams Summer Ale – you'd earn extra points if it was, though – but I'd rather it not be a Blatz, either. How 'bout a Miller Lite?
Thank you to Chris for being this week's guest and if you don't frequent Ol' Bag of Donuts on a regular basis, you don't know what you're missing out so correct the situation right away.

Too Faced Lip Injection Extreme Review & Swatches
Too Faced Lip Injection Extreme gets a make over for Spring 2013. As a self confessed lover of lip plumpers I can't recall trying or owning the original Lip Injection or Lip Injection Extreme so I can't say how this compares to the old formula.
Hmmm…sadness that I never tried it.
If you're sensitive be careful with this one as it comes across rather pleasant at first but it has a nice little bite that will give the illusion of fuller lips!
Unlike Lip Injections from the past Too Faced created this one with a sponge applicator versus a brush. I actually prefer the brush for application but actually the sponge is a smart move overall. I've noticed when I apply lip plumpers with a brush my lips get ticklish or super sensitive as the product begins to warm up so I can't complete application with the brush….the sponge actually is more of a bearable way to apply as it doesn't tickle nor does it tingle or pinch as I apply.
This a clear gloss with a faint pink iridescence. Unlike many plumpers it doesn't have a cinnamon or peppermint taste. This has more of a fruitiness which is very pleasant.
The starting line is very mild here. I apply, wait for a few seconds, wait for some more and feel absolutely nothing. Surprise! Typically I start to feel the tingle right away when I apply lip plumpers. This has a slow build up….within a minute it'll start to tingle and perhaps it might feel like a burn for those with sensitive skin. Personally for me it feels like a sharp tingle but it isn't unpleasant (perhaps I'm a masochist).
It contains marine sponge which gives the appearance of fuller lips and collagen booster which not only plumps but increases moisture. It's actually super mild compared to other plumpers I've tried. The tingle is there for a few seconds but disappears quickly and leaves lips very slightly reddened. Now I actually just got new news on the product…the original Lip Injection formula gives instant plumping results and Extreme's formula is supposed to give you a plumped effect over time. So might have to try this a few weeks and let you know if my lips appear any luscious after I've used it for a longer duration eh?
Unlike other plumpers which depend on a thick, glossy finish to create the illusion of fullness it seems like Too Faced relies on ingredients like the marine sponge to give the appearance of pouty lips.
I see some volume but not a lot in all honesty. I was hoping for a super glossy lip look with a good deal of volume due to a thicker gloss. But in this case I got more of a thinner, drier gloss with a little redness, a little pout, but nothing extreme.
Overall, Too Faced Lip Injection Extreme isn't as extreme as I thought it would be. If you can't stand lip plumpers or are sensitive you MIGHT want to check this out as it is very mild compared to other formulas and a good starting point to trying out such a product.
Available now at Sephora, Ulta, and TooFaced.com
Tried it?
Do share!
This review contains a sample
product sent for consideration by PR.
Read my full disclosure statement here.
I felt this was meh! I liked the fruitiness of the aroma, and the thinness of the texture was nice, but had to keep reapplying because of it. There was no plumping effect, so this is just an over priced clear gloss for me. The old formula was the same.
I tried two tubes because of the same advice from them that it works over time. Nothing got plumper other than their bank account! 😉
1/17/13 18:55 Megan:
This is the only plumper I have tried that I liked since Lip Fusion XL. Sorry to hear that it didn't offer much plumping power for you I have to say, the first time I used this, after five minutes I was worried it might not stop plumping. I think a key to this one is "rubbing it in" a bit by rubbing your lips together. I have had great results with it but the make over is a super improvement to the older packaging!
1/17/13 20:16 Debster:
How does this compare to the physician formula clear lip plumper?
1/18/13 9:46 Ruth:
From my TF order a year + ago, they included a sample size of their plumper and I tried it and couldn't get it off fast enough. I must have sensitive skin because it burned and my eyes started watering. It's possible an item has never made it to the rubbish bin faster, but my thoughts are no.
1/18/13 9:50 Celine:
The redness lips totally turns me off from even trying this.
1/18/13 10:28 Marisa:
I tried the original version of this and it literally burned my lippies. It took me about 3 weeks of extreme chap-stick using and no lipstick to heal my lips. I'll pass on this one, even though I'm a huge fan of Tarte and LOVE most of their products (specially their mascaras).
1/20/13 17:50 Danii:
Um, this is Too Faced. Not Tarte. Completely different brand.
1/18/13 11:10 Monica:
I still have the original version but I never use it cuz it scares the bejesus out of me! I dislike the sting feeling and the product does plump my lips BUT if I apply too much I end with red blotchy skin around my mouth, not remotely atractive.
Soooo….an extreme version of the Lip Injection?? hell no!
1/22/13 22:44 Melissa:
Is it weird that I love the burning bite? Remember the urban decay one fatty lips or something? loved that! I guess ill stick to duwop for now.

With the decision by the Supreme Court to consider reversing a lower court's ruling that the EPA exceeded its authority in issuing a "cross-state" pollution rule last year, environmentalists are delighted. The lower court's decision was "confusing," according to Janice Nolen, assistant vice president of the American Lung Association, adding that "we are very pleased that they [the court] may clarify this."
If the lower court's decision is overruled, the EPA's new air regulations would require a decrease in sulfur dioxide emissions from coal-fired power plants by 73 percent from 2005 levels, along with a 54-percent decrease in nitrogen oxides. The new regulations ignore the fact that those levels have already decreased by 71 percent since 1980 and that overall emissions have been cut in half in that period. But it appears that the environmentalists running the EPA really don't care.
The agency has based its air-quality decisions on the so-called "six-cities study" (where 8,111 inhabitants were surveyed in six small towns about the impact of pollution on their health) and the American Cancer Society (ACS) study, purporting to show that high levels of pollution lead to health problems. The validity of these studies has been brought repeatedly into question. Richard Gordon, writing for the Cato Institute, said:
The EPA has used these studies to rationalize [its] rule-makings since at least 1997:
the small size of most of the municipalities used in the six-city study … are too few to … produce meaningful estimates of impacts….
The ACS study involved respondents selected and interviewed by ACS volunteers. Neither the volunteers nor the respondents were randomly selected; the volunteers sought out those close to them. The survey was further compromised because it was designed to explore general health issues and was turned into a pollution impact study by marrying the survey data with EPA emissions data.
Other criticisms of these studies included the fact that people spend 89 percent of their time indoors and consequently exterior pollution levels "tell little about the level and composition of actual human exposure," according to Gordon.

Could Nikki Finke Sue HBO?
In fact, pretty much everyone who works in entertainment journalism thought of Finke; she's reclusive, opinionated, confrontational, litigious, and likes to punctuate news that corroborates with her inside info with a big fat "TOLDJA!" in all caps. So it's not a surprise to think that more than one person had to wonder if Finke was involved in this show, and if she wasn't, would she sic her lawyers after HBO and anyone else within subpoena-shot.
Gawker called Finke, who, in between threats to sue the site's writer and corporate parent, said she'd talk about her involvement (or lack therof) with the project soon. But The Hollywood Reporter managed to find out that Finke wasn't involved, leading to their wondering if Finke has the right to sue over this series.
The answer, like almost everything in life, is "it depends." More than likely, if the character of Tilda is, as HBO claims, a composite of a number of different Hollywood bloggers, Finke won't have much of a leg to stand on. If it seems like the character is too much like a specific person or references too many specific events in that person's life, then Finke may have a case.
It all depends on the execution, but her case will have to be a good one: If Bill and Hillary Clinton didn't sue over 'Primary Colors,' what kind of case would Nikki Finke have over 'Tilda?'

I haven't gotten any of my free stuff yet !!!
If the Govt wons part of these car companies, do we all get employee pricing? Can I fire some of the folks at Dealerships? Do we get stock options?
I would absolutely rate him at …………sorry, move it up. Uh, uhm, uh, I would absolutely…..uh, I read that already. Move it up. Ummmm, uh, uh, aaaaand…..
The first "100 Days" we read about when studying history . . . was the 100 days immediately following Napoleon's return to France from his aborted exile on Elba. And we know how that ended !
100 days closer to complete Socialism.
Nothing like having an administration that sucks up to dictators and snubs our allies…having tax cheats in his cabinet and the head of Homeland Security being more concerned over our brave military personnel than the terrorists that want to destroy us..looks like the only thing the USA has to apologize for is our as prez..
"Enchanting", especially after getting lobbed another softball question from the NYT.
Obama is a horror show! I thought Carter was bad. Obama is incrementally dismantling this country. Fortunately, it took a Carter to bring us Reagan. I hope the next guy can fix the mess from this one.

I'm really interested in starting the GM/MM diet, but I have a lot of questions! Mostly, I would like to know what foods are ok and not ok for GM days. I would love to hear examples of what others are eating GM days.
Is it ok to eat these on GM days:
Deli or sandwich meat
cheese (including sliced and shredded cheese, cottage cheese and cheese spreads)
dried fruit
roasted nuts
veggie dips (they have low carbs)
salad dressing
microwave meals (like Healthy Choice that have turkey and veggies for example)
salt and other spices
Also, Teresa says soups are ok, but what kinds are ok? What should I be looking for that is not ok?
Sorry for all the questions, I just want to make sure I do it right and it helps my body the best it can. Any input would be greatly appreciated!

If I had to pick one of the three, it would be the first one, although, I do like that ass in the last one, in the last ass shot, the shoot was somewhat confusing.Reply

One of the shots I liked was of a guy shooting jizz into his hand. That's always hot to me.Reply

YIELD: Serves 4
- 2 cups fresh cheese
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 3 egg whites
- 1 quart fresh strawberries or raspberries
- sugar or vanilla sugar
Line each mold with a piece of the cheesecloth (this is not essential but it gives the dessert a neat patterned finish). In a large bowl, whisk the cheese and cream until smooth, adding a little more cream if necessary so the cheese falls easily from the spoon. In a separate bowl, whisk the egg whites until stiff. Gradually fold them into the cheese and cream.
Spoon the mixture into the mold or molds, set on a tray and cover. Leave to drain in the refrigerator for at least 8 hours and up to 36 hours.
An hour or two before serving, hull the strawberries, reserving 6-8 for decoration, or pick over the raspberries. Turn each mold on to a serving plate.
Decorate with whole, unhulled strawberries or raspberries. Chill until serving. Sprinkle the remaining prepared berries with 1-2 teaspoons sugar and leave to macerate until serving.
