What don't Rick Perry and Mitt Romney have in common?
Health insurance for their fellow home states' residents.
It was Perry, the Texas governor who also sought the Republican Party's presidential nomination last year, who announced last summer that he would reject the health-care exchanges and Medicaid expansion included in President Barack Obama's Affordable Care Act.
"The bottom line here is that Medicaid is a failed program," Perry said in an appearance on Fox News. "To expand this program is not unlike adding a thousand people to the Titanic."
Yet look what else is sinking:
For the fifth year in a row, Texas ranks No. 1 in Americans lacking health insurance, according to a Gallup-Healthways survey.
More than a quarter of adult Texans — 28.8 percent — lacked coverage in 2012, the highest rate for any state since the survey started in January 2008.
Massachusetts, it goes to figure, has the lowest rate, at 4.5 percent — thanks to another former governor, Romney, who once advocated a mandate there that became less appealing to him in the 2012 presidential election contest.
Nationwide, an average of 16.9 percent of all adults lacked coverage.
While Perry holds out against the Medicaid expansion, other Republican governors — including Florida's Rick Scott — have started reassessing their opposition to the provision of "Obama-care" that offers states expanded funding and coverage for more people. The Florida Legislature, however, appears to want none of it today.
In Florida, 22.8 percent of all adults were uninsured for health care.
Gallup's Elizabeth Mendes reports: "Uninsured rates in about half the U.S. remained higher in 2012 than in 2008. Just four states, though, show year-over-year increases every year since 2008 — Rhode Island, New Jersey, California, and New York. And Texas — the state with the highest adult uninsured rate in the country for five years in a row — continues to widen the gap between it and the state with the second-highest uninsured rate in the U.S."
Results are based on telephone interviews conducted as part of the Gallup-Healthways Well-Being Index survey throughout 2012, with a random sample of 353,564 adults and a possible margin of error of 1 percentage point.

By MICHAEL OVERSONSun Advocate reporter
The Price River Water Improvement District board had their final meeting of 2009 on Dec. 15, and the members found out that the district is being fined $21,857 by the United States Environmental Protection Agency and the Utah State Division of Water Quality for a sewer leak that occurred earlier this year.
The fine is presently in draft form and is expected to be appealed. The appeal which will focus on lowering the amount of the fine as well as trying to get the money that could be used for upgrades on the districts system.
The leak was caused by a corroded steel pipe which was not originally put in place by PRWID. The system was built in the 1970's and the portion that failed was replaced in the 1980's when the highways bridge was widened. Steel pipes, which are not supposed to be used in sewer construction because of corrosion issues, were the culprit incident. No one is sure who put in the line and no blame is being issued.
Other items covered during the board meeting included the following.
The newest addition to their motor fleet, a new 3/4 ton Ford purchased from Community Motors was sent to Salt Lake City for service outfitting. That service will includes adding storage compartments to the bed. The new unit will replace a Ford Ranger, that has been declared surplus and will be going on the auction block.
This month PRWID is also sending off their total toxic organics sample to a testing laboratory. Samples are taken every three years and are used to make sure no illegal materials are being dumped into the Price River.
The new generator at the water treatment facility is almost online. Cummins Rocky Mountain is the company that provided the unit. CRM's employee's now have to come to the plant, wire it up and make sure that nothing is wrong before it starts up.
The Henry Sewer project has been green lighted and is operational now. However the Martin Sewer has been put on hold until temperatures rise again. Work on it will probably commence in February.
Jeff Richens, the districts manager, reported to the board that some individuals have been taking water without paying for it. Several PRWID employee's were aware of a few men filling up 55 gallon drums with water from a wash out hose. The men were told to stop but continued to take the water. Jeff said he was called and he also told the men to stop. The issue was not reported to the police and no action was taken. However, in the future police action may become necessary if the problem occurs again. The board agreed that even though the amount that was being taken was miniscule, the fact is that when someone takes something without paying for it, it is still theft.
It was also pointed out that the meeting was the last that Helper Mayor Mike Dalpiaz and Wellington Mayor Karl Houskeeper would attend. Houskeeper has been on the board for many, many years. They were honored at an earlier meeting for their service.

Wednesday, February 18, 7:30 p.m., Dave Chetcuti Room.
Jump to Field Weather Conditions
The PCC Field Cam is more than a camera — it is a camera, a computer and a modem. This kind of system is known as a web camera or webcam. The PCC Field Cam computer runs the LINUX operating system, a version of UNIX, and has software programs to control the camera and communicate with the Internet. We have programmed it to meet our needs.
The Field Cam takes a picture every 10 minutes between 7 a.m. and 7 p.m. After the picture is taken, it dials into an Internet Service Provider (ISP) via modem and logs in with a username and password for security purposes. At this point it is connected to the Internet. It then transfers the image file to the PCC web server using File Transfer Protocol (FTP), logs out, and hangs up.
If the connection fails (as modem connections often do), the Field Cam retries twice more, 90 seconds apart, before waiting another 10 minutes.
While connected to the Internet, the Field Cam also synchronizes its internal clock with a Network Time Protocol (NTP) server in San Jose, CA. The time shown on the image accurately reflects when the picture was taken.
This web page displays the image most recently uploaded to the PCC web server. It also automatically causes your browser to refresh this page every minute, so you can leave the image up and watch it during breakfast to see if you're going to fly today!
In the best case, the image you see was taken less than one minute ago. However, the 10-minute interval, the possibility of upload failures and the one-minute refresh delay all may make the image you see several minutes earlier than the current time. If you suspect the image on your screen is not the most current, click the "Refresh" button on your browser.

I'm currently on a Nirve Night Owl beach cruiser with a three speed hub transmission. The bike is stock except for a new chain, chain tension, and a rear rack over the wheel. I got this bike in December when forced with the choice of buying a 1000 car - or a getting bicycle and have the leftover money go towards rent. I used this bike all throughout the 08-09 Michigan (Rochester Hills) winter, putting on about 400 miles a month and subsequently know every inch of the machine.
This is just a little background as to why I would even attempt to think about taking my "Beach Cruiser" downhill mountain biking. With no front or rear shocks, no designer rims or a purpose built frame - I was able to outpace my friends with much more expensive "mountain bikes". It may have been their lack of experience, but I had the time of my my life flying down the trail. I'm going to go as often as I can before I ship out for the Navy in December. Maybe with some new tires (I've been using the same tires that came with the bike! must have a couple thousand miles on them!!).
Other than sharing my success story, I was wondering if anyone has tried mountain bike racing in say, a foldaway bike or a pedal gokart?

The Yamaha SD-2465 Steel Snare has a bright, cutting sound and is one of the best values around!
Steel snares have the brightest tone of all Yamaha metal-shell snare drums. The Yamaha SD-2465 Steel Snare is a versatile drum that you can tune down for a fat sound or crank it up to make your backbeat pop. The 6-1/2" deep shell has more body and warmth than a shallower shell.
One-piece lugs allow high tension and added strength. The "B" type strainer is a classic design that's simple and reliable. Triple-flanged steel hoops give you a wide tuning range and allow the drum to open up even under higher tension. Chromeplated finish is glassy smooth.

Comments about Yamaha Steel Snare:
I just assembled one of these bad boys at my high school, usin the bottom head off of an old crappy Ludwig. The drum assembled and disassembled nicely, easy to put the snares on and take them off. the bottom head was the easiest bottom head that I've ever tuned! It sounds amazing, even though we have a Remo Black Max on the top, it has a great pop, and no overtones.

I don't use Whirlwind much either, but I still consider it useful, the moves that are being removed I still consider useless
Carnage Marauder's have a harder time with rage than you realise. Force Choke is used sparingly at higher levels if at all... mostly not, retaliation is used sparingly too, if at all. For us things are focused around Gore and Massacre and firing off Force Scream when it can auto-crit. Smash is only really good for trash mobs, however only really effective when everyone else is aoeing them down too. Generally, people who play a Carnage Marauder all agree that you have to be extremely careful with them otherwise you'll become rage-starved very quickly... even more quickly in 2.0.
Requirements aren't the issue, there are a lot of times when you have to use one ability to build onto the next, wait for things to proc, etc, with every class. Some classes need more management than others in this area.
Tell you what though, I'll put Tumult back on my quickbar for my assassin and play around with it before 2.0 hits... there's plenty of time before that happens.

MASSENA - Town officials have decided to move ahead with approximately $350,000 in renovation work to the Massena Town Halls facade, front steps and parking lot.
In a special meeting Wednesday afternoon, Supervisor Joseph D. Gray, Councilman John F. Macaulay and Councilman Albert N. Nicola voted unanimously to approve resolutions to bond for $185,000 for improvements to the town halls facade and front steps, and $168,000 for improvements to the parking lot. Mr. Gray said he held the impromptu meeting in order to quickly pass the resolutions and move ahead on work, which he would like finished this year.
We wanted to do it as soon as possible, rather than wait until the (Massena) town council meeting. We thought wed like to get the ball rolling today, Mr. Gray said.
Councilman Charles A. Raiti and Robert Cunningham were not available at the time of the meeting.
The work will address the town halls crumbling facade and front steps, and the parking lot around the town hall needs repairs to fill potholes and address issues of water drainage, Mr. Gray said.
The mortar is failing. You have chunks of mortar falling off the building. No ones been hit yet, thankfully. Obviously we need serious repairs to the front of the town hall, Mr. Gray said previously.
Mr. Gray said low interest rates make it favorable to bond sooner rather than hold off on the work, which will be partially funded through $150,000 from the St. Lawrence River Valley Redevelopment Agency. That money will be split into a $75,000 grant for the work, and a $75,000 low-interest loan to the town, Mr. Gray said.
At next weeks meeting, the town council will discuss its options to either renovate or replace a Highway Department barn suffering from a number of structural issues, according to Mr. Gray.
Theres extensive, extensive renovations (needed to be done) to the town highway garage, everything from mechanicals to roofing to asbestos abatement and huge aesthetics improvements, Mr. Gray said previously.
In February the town council voted unanimously to seek bids for projects to repair the facade and fronts steps at the town hall, address issues with the parking lots outside the town hall, construct a new hangar at the Massena International Airport and repair the towns Highway Department barn.
Previous estimates put that work at $1.87 million, a cost some council members felt was more than the town could reasonably afford to spend.
I just cant see us spending $1.8 million to revitalize that building, Mr. Cunningham said previously.
Highway Superintendent Frank Diagostino pointed out the town could choose to fund only portions of the proposed repairs if they decide they do not have the funding at this point in time.
You may say, OK, at this point in time we cant afford (all the maintenance work), put in a new entrance, put a new roof on it, insulate it and put in a new floor, and thats what you do, Mr. Diagostino said. Im not saying everything on that list needs to be done. If you cant (afford it), obviously you cant.
Mr. Diagostino also said better insulation could save the town on the costs of heating the barn over time.

Virgil's Restaurant employee in Bellevue burglarized by woman who said she was seeking help
BELLEVUE, Ky. – Preying on the good nature of people during the holiday season, a woman stole a cellphone and two credit cards from an employee at Virgil's Restaurant.
A female suspect entered the Bellevue eatery and told its staff she wished to speak to the owner about a fundraiser she was hosting to help pay for the burial of her 6-year-old nephew, detective Jon McClain reported.
The woman produced a ledger with names and money already pledged by other Bellevue businesses when asked, according to witnesses. As the woman waited for the owner she allegedly stole the phone and cards from an employee's purse.
A surprising move the suspect made, McClain told WCPO reporter Natasha Williams, was that she apparently left her own purse at Virgil's, then returned to fetch it.
Williams also spoke to the owner of the restaurant, Matt Buschle. He said in 15 years of being in the restaurant industry, he had yet to see a crime like this one.
"I think it was completely and utterly a crime of opportunity," Buschle said, "and I think there are people up and down the avenue hat simply handed out money."
Police in the area said they believe she has made her way around the city, possibly collecting money from businesses and using the same story.
The woman then used one of the stolen cards at a United Dairy Farmer's down the street where she purchased peanuts, a pack of gum, and three packs of cigarettes. By tracking the illegal use of the credit card, McClain was able to obtain an image of the suspect caught on UDF's security camera.
Witnesses saw the suspect drive away in a maroon late 1990s Dodge Stratus.
Jody Robinson has lived in Bellevue for many years, and told Williams she hopes crimes and scams don't tarnish the town's image.
"We actually carry the moniker of Mayberry and now it's like 'oh, it's dangerous and urban' and that is not the case at all," Robinson said.
Everywhere she walks and goes in Bellevue, Robinson said she feels safe.
The female suspect is wanted for burglary and two counts of unauthorized use of a credit card.
Anyone with information is asked to call Det. McClain at (859) 292-4234.

There is no way I could fit all the positive comments I have about your work in this little space lol so I'll just say that I LOVE everything you've ever created. If I had the money I'd throw it at you and only ask that you keep doing what you're doing. Until then I'll keep buying everything of yours that I can. I've never seen artwork/stories that evoke so much raw, real emotion as yours. Keep up the great work!

Ooh comments! In that case, I can say it:
Thanks, Sam. I was 13 when The Maxx came onto MTV, and I've been buying up your work ever since. Through your comics and your responses to letter columns I've discovered a ton of art and culture that I was born a bit too late to experience when it was new, and watching your art develop over the years has given me lots of hope about me developing in my own career. I've seen so much wonderful depth in your work; I love the characters you create, the mix of realism and surrealism of both art and story, and the fact that you're actually creating art that doesn't look or read like any other comic on the shelves. Thanks for the blog, which is a wonderful window into your head. Keep writing, blogging, and painting and I'll be thrilled to keep following you everywhere you go.

When you say there will be an Ultimate Maxx book sometime down the road, do you mean like later this year? That would be awesome.
I had started reading Maxx around issue 20, and it's still my all-time favourite comic series. I can't count the number of times I've re-read it. I actually have plans of getting a tattoo w the Maxc (in some form or another) in the next year or so, so that Ultimate Maxx book would come in handy!
Thank you again for all your work, and for more recently sharing your work and process with your fans.

I don't know if this has been addressed, but I once heard that you were the only creator to actually finish his stories for darker Image 2-4. If this is true, any chance of seeing these in print this year with all the other awesome stuff IDW is bringing us? Thanks!!

MacFarlane surprises UCLA class, announces Oscars contest
LOS ANGELES (AP) -- Oscar host Seth MacFarlane is inviting college students to join him on stage at the Academy Awards.
The "Family Guy" creator made a surprise appearance at UCLA to announce a contest sponsored by the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences and MTV that will allow winning college students to appear on the Feb. 24 Oscar telecast.
The contest invites students to submit videos on the academy's Facebook page describing how they'll contribute to the future of film. At least six winners will serve as trophy carriers on the Oscar show, replacing the leggy models who usually perform the duties.
MacFarlane spent 40 minutes leading the undergraduate film and television class at UCLA's Westwood campus on Wednesday as part of MTV's "Stand In" series, which brings celebrities to colleges as guest lecturers.
Bing: Who was named Miss Golden Globe?
"In re-imagining what we want our Oscar show to be, we wanted everyone appearing on that stage to feel a deep commitment to film and its legacy and, most importantly, its future," said Oscar producers Craig Zadan and Neil Meron in a statement. "That was the impetus in creating this special honor."
The contest is also aimed at drawing the younger viewers favored by advertisers to the Oscars' aging TV audience. Like UCLA student Abby Smith, who immediately pulled out her smartphone to share the moment on Facebook when MacFarlane appeared before her class.
"Seth MacFarlane is speaking to my film lecture for the next hour," Smith posted. "I'm having a panic attack."
The 39-year-old entertainer urged the aspiring filmmakers and show-runners in the class to make a "commercially viable student film" before leaving school, adding that "Family Guy" was based on his own student film.
And MacFarlane said "Family Guy" could once again become a film. He said he's already come up with a concept for a feature-length movie and promised "it will happen at some point."
MacFarlane cheekily described the Academy Awards as "a crazy little variety show" and said "all I can do is do what I think is funny and most entertaining."
"The Oscars is a tricky venue," he said. "The (hosts) who have not done well, I would classify them as a noble failure, an honorable failure, because at least they were trying something new... If I can do it without torpedoing my career and getting drummed out of the business... All I can do is my very best."
He paused a beat, and added, "Lame (expletive) answer."

Roast your own coffee
It's easy to roast your own coffee. Ever wonder how people did it hundreds of years ago? They didn't have electricity, fancy roasters, grinders and espresso makers. They just grabbed a handful of beans and went for it. You can, too!
Here's the short story. Just take a handful and put them in a pot over a high heat. Roast them until brown. It takes five to ten minutes. Then, grind and brew.
Want some details? I hoped you would! I'll share with you some of my favorite coffee destinations. Then, I'll describe how you can roast your own coffee.
My love affair with coffee began years ago in Houston, TX. We had a little store called "Pueblo to People" in the Montrose that offered fair-trade coffee beans at low prices. Nicaraguan beans proved to be my favorite. No matter where I looked, the beans from Pueblo to People were always the best.
Later, I went to Costa Rica and visited a coffee finca (farm). These beans were green and red. Beautiful!

Dublin, Ireland is the home of beloved Bewley's, known for its tummy warming coffee. Here's a shot of their Probat roaster.

There's a little coffee shop I love to visit on Florida's east coast. They have an authentic Ethiopian coffee roaster.

Beautiful Crested Butte, Colorado is the home of Camp 4 Coffee. Al's the owner. He loves his work. He's a former big business guy who decided to chuck the fast pace and live somewhere he loved. He wanted to do something that he could do as an artisan. Camp 4 Coffee was born.
(photo from www.camp4coffee.com)
Al took me on a tour of his roastery. He showed me the method he uses to roast the finest coffee beans.
(photo by Michael Levin www.zoobird.com)
That's the author of his article on the left and Al on the right in the photo above. Al has a huge, commercial roaster. He pointed out that after some time, the beans crack with a loud pop. Camp 4 Coffee is more than just an artisan coffee shop. They employ many local people. Their baristas brew tasty, visually appealing coffee.
(photo by Michael Levin www.zoobird.com)
It was a magical tour. I ordered beans from Al's online store at www.camp4coffee.com in 8lb bulk to save money. But, you don't need fancy equipment to roast your own coffee.
My first roasting attempt was with a home roaster that resembled a popcorn popper. The result was less than impressive.
I visited a friend in Sacramento, California. He and I had dinner at a Moroccan restaurant. The coffee they served was among the best I'd ever had. They roasted it themselves, adding spices. I took some home with me. I tried roasting my own beans with the electric roaster again. But, again I was disappointed.
Later, I visited another friend in Berkeley, California. He and I visited one of the Ethiopian restaurants on Telegraph Road near the university. Not only was the food incredible, but the coffee was fantastic. It was my first time to try Ethiopian food. And, I discovered they roasted their own beans, too.
When I came back to Orlando, FL the first chance I got I googled "Ethiopian restaurant Orlando" and found Orlando's only Ethiopian restaurant, The Nile. The food was spectacular. I was tempted to try the coffee, but the menu said service was for 3-4, so I planned to try it when I came with some friends. Owner Abeba (as in Addis Ababa, the capital of Ethiopia) asked me how I liked my meal. She asked if I'd like some coffee. I explained that I had read the menu offerering service for 3-4 people and I intended to come back with my friends. She said she'd love to let me try some on the house, as a treat.
(photo by Michael Levin www.zoobird.com)
Abeba used a metal pot with a long handle and an electric heating element. She put the beans in the pot and held it over the hot element. As the temperature rose, she gently moved the pot, keeping the beans in motion. I heard a crack a few minutes later. Then another crack. The beans turned from green to a dark brown in less than five minutes. She crushed the beans with a mortar and pestle and brewed them in another pot. You can see the detail in the picture. The coffee was superb. She served it in a little cup similar to the ones used to drink espresso. All the while, the most exquisite incense was burning. Ethiopian music wafted in from the dining room. Coffee at the Nile restaurant is far from ordinary. It was a true ceremony, Ethiopian style.
(photo by Michael Levin www.zoobird.com)
I couldn't believe how easy it was. I bought a pound of raw Ethiopian beans from Abeba for $7.00. I asked Abeba about the pot. She said she sold them, too. The were available for $20.00. But, she added honestly, "I'd try it with your own pot, first." and smiled pleasantly.
(photo by Michael Levin www.zoobird.com)
So, I had to try it myself. I worried that my Teflon (TM) coated pot would be damaged from the heat. I have a gas stove, not an electric one. Days passed. Well, today I decided to give it a go.
I grabbed a handful of beans. About enough for a big pot of coffee, just like Abeba did. I put the beans in my fancy pot. I turned on the gas stove and the overhead vent, remembering how the house smelled last time I tried roasting beans. Nice smell, but it lingered for a long time. I noted the time I started roasting.
(photo by Michael Levin www.zoobird.com)
I gently shook the pot as the beans heated up. About three minutes later, the beans started to smell good and turn brown. About five minutes later, I heard a few cracks as the beans began to pop. I kept the lid on the pot because the chaff from the beans tended to float all over the kitchen without it. I could have stopped at seven or eight minutes, but I like a darker roast. Ten minutes later, I was satisfied that I had a dark roast ready to grind.
(photo by Michael Levin www.zoobird.com)
The finished beans were beautiful! They were dark, smelled great, and had a shiny luster just like beans from the pros.
(photo by Michael Levin www.zoobird.com)
I have an electric bean grinder. But, I wanted to try grinding the beans the old fashioned way. So, with a little elbow grease and a smile on my face, I ground the beans by hand with a mortar and pestle.
(photo by Michael Levin www.zoobird.com)
I used the little stove top coffee pot shown in the picture below to brew my freshly roasted Ethiopian coffee beans.
(photo by Michael Levin www.zoobird.com)
The brewing process is three phased. You put in a little coffee and some water. If you like, you can add some sugar and even pepper, cardamom or other spices. Watch the coffee as it boils. Before it boils over, you remove it from the heat. Do this two more times. Then, it's ready to serve.
(photo by Michael Levin www.zoobird.com)
That's the finished cup of coffee in the picture above. Best coffee I ever tasted. Why? Because it's fresh, it's pure and I did it myself.
I loved roasting the coffee myself. It tastes fantastic. The process is not difficult. It takes only a few minutes. The bit of extra effort is well worth it. The result is a delicious, fresher than normal, satisfying brew that you and your guests will enjoy. I hope you have as much fun preparing your own coffee as I did. And, please post your comments if you have tips to share. By the way, I'm Michael Levin and this is my first article on Elephant Journal. Thanks for dropping by!

Michael: I'm impressed with your presentation. You really have it all down with the copy and the pix. No wonder you spend so much time at your art. It is after all an art. I'm pleased that coming to the garden and meeting a new group of folks has impacted your life so positively. Each our turn moved along to where are to go. I had a great day with my grandson; all day with my son working and mama at a Dave Mathews concert. I'm going to write about my day with grandson tomorrow. It's like manifesting the world they way I want it to be. you know something about that also. It'll be good o see you around here once in a while when that happens. Sh'mal
fascinating stuff! anyone know where to get raw coffee beans? my friend ordered some a few years back and we all noticed rather quickly that if you eat green coffee beans you get an incredible energy burst from just a few. I've been trying to find them ever since

Hey there,
What a nice little write up. I enjoyed your endearing talk of your local Ethiopian restaurant and Abeba.
I was looking for info on the net for how to roast my own coffee… Actually, how to roast it when out on camping trips (the word camping brought up this site). I thought that would be just great…. I've seen videos of the more "ceremonial" Ethiopian way and it just seems to appealing… to sit around, listen to and smell the coffee roast before enjoying it…
Lets take our time and enjoy our coffee, friends and environment
I really enjoyed your description of roasting the coffee – wondering – do you have to strain it at all?
I would love to try it – there really is a pleasure in creating!
Kathy, Thanks! When I use the little coffee pot in the article to brew coffee, I am careful to let the grounds settle before I pour. I leave a little coffee behind to keep the grounds from going into the cup.
I was contemplating purchasing a coffee bean grinder, but there's so many different things to consider, many of which I've never even heard of before, things like: How long does it take to grind the coffee beans? How much can I grind at one time? Is the coffee bean grinder electric or manual? Is the grinder a space saver? How many coarness levels does the grinder have, ie; fine, ultrafine or coarse, medium coarseness. How was the cost of a grinder? What is difference in the most expensive grinder to the less expensive grinders? Can you use any flavor of coffee to grind? Does the coffee bean grinder come attached to a coffee maker? Will the coffee grinder have a any type of timer- along with some type of auto shut off?

I believe that is among the most vital information for me. And i am satisfied reading your article. But wanna observation on some general things, The web site taste is wonderful, the articles is actually great : D. Excellent process, cheers
Michael, thanks for sharing your discoveries! More and more are experimenting at home which is also the way I started. Like you I also published my first installment for Elephant Journal,
I have been roasting coffee for several years and have discovered quite a bit. I recently gave a TEDx talk about it: http://tedxtalks.ted.com/video/TEDxUbud-Asher-Yar…
A couple of suggestions. Next time stop the roasting and start the cooling just after the second crack. The beans should be a nice chocolate brown color with no visible oils on the surface. This retains many of the flavors that are destroyed when the beans are roasted very dark and oils are showing (this is called a French roast, or Espresso roast). Also, let the beans settle for a few hours after roasting them. You can even roast the coffee before going to bed and then try them the next morning, I think you will find the beans will have a lot more flavors and be more full bodied.
For a resource for green coffee from around the world, and also for home roasting information and equipment, Sweet Maria's is by far the best online resource there is: http://www.sweetmarias.com
Happy roasting and experimenting!

Day Tripping
Kids Fish & Win!
By Letha Grimes
Little did Bradley, Cody, Bryan or Taylor Mae know when they signed up for local youth fishing rodeos that they soon would be lucky winners of personal fishing trips, coordinated through the Maryland Fishing Challenge.
Trip winners are selected by drawing from more than 20 youth rodeos held across the State each year, and receive their prizes during the Maryland Fishing Challenge Grand Finale.
The Maryland Department of Natural Resources (DNR) partners with fishing organizations, businesses and charter boat captains to provide these exciting expeditions, which in 2011 included trout fishing on the Gunpowder River, largemouth bass fishing on the Potomac, an angling trip on Deep Creek Lake, an Ocean City charter boat voyage and several Chesapeake Bay outings.
Working with these enthusiastic young people and their families is a wonderful, rewarding experience, one that I look forward to each year.
Trips ahoy
Hosted by Dick Berich of Chesapeake BASS, Cody Wheeler hooked a 3.05-pound channel catfish on a fishing trip with his father, Matt. The excitement of snaring the catfish could be heard all along the banks of Dundee Creek when the 6-year-old from Bel Air returned to the dock, determined to carry his own live-bag to the weigh-in station.
Bradley McDowell of Rising Sun, who caught the largest fish at the 2010 North East Maryland Saltwater Sportfishermens Association (MSSA) youth fishing rodeo, won a trip with Arrie Beyer, also of Chesapeake BASS. Beyer took the 13-year-old and his father, Marty, out on Dundee Creek where they caught mostly white perch. Bradley can be found fishing at local ponds about four times a week. In fact, the day before his trip, he won his age division again at the 2011 North East MSSA youth fishing rodeo.
These two young anglers were also invited to participate in the Maryland BASS Federation Nation Junior Bass Angler Qualifier.
Capt. Tom Hughes donated a white perch trip on the Upper Bay to Taylor Mae Edwards, 11, from Essex. Taylor Mae, her dad, Larry, and her cousin, Robbie, caught more than 60 white perch and a few rockfish, and enjoyed a brief historical tour around the Baltimore Harbor.
The young angler was amazed not only by the trip but also by the sight of Fort McHenry, where Francis Scott Key wrote the Star Spangled Banner.
Bryan Brochu, 11, of Rising Sun experienced his very first Chesapeake Bay fishing trip, donated by Steve Linhard of the Maryland Legislative Sportsmens Foundation. Bryan, his mom Angela, and younger brother, Sebastian, fished the Bay near Annapolis; they caught plenty of white perch, a few spots and croakers. A croaker was dinner that evening.
Tagging a winner
Every summer, 10 young anglers from Baltimores City Catch program accompany DNR staff on a Diamond Jim tagging trip. In 2011, the lucky group joined Capt. Mark Hall of Rock Hall Fishing Charters aboard Gone Fishin for an excursion into the Bay. Being on a charter boat for the first time raised their enthusiasm and determination levels.
Once we reached the waters around Sandy Point State Park, it wasnt long before the first legal striper was in the boat and tagged. While the fishing was a little slow, all of the kids experienced the thrill of reeling in at least one rockfish.
Seeing the kids excitement is priceless, as is the appreciation of their parents. Sharing these experiences with the kids and their families, and promoting the great sport of fishing among our young people is unforgettable!
Generous donors of the 2011 Maryland Fishing Challenge trips included: BASS Federation Nation, Bills Outdoor World, Coastal Conservation Association, Maryland Charter Boat Association, Maryland Legislative Sportsmens Foundation, Maryland Saltwater Sportfishermens Association, Mid-Atlantic Council Trout Unlimited, Capt. Mike Benjamin, Capt. Richie Gaines, Capt. Monte Hawkins, Capt. Tom Hughes and Capt. Skip Zinck.
Letha Grimes is a DNR biologist and the Maryland Fishing Challenge Youth Component coordinator.

Seven Ways to Save an Extra $10,000
December 2, 2011 - 12:01 am
When you work for yourself and don't have the option of living paycheck to paycheck, you're forced to start learning how to take better care of your money.
There are some tricks that can help you out with that. Writing down every dime you spend for a month or using websites like Mint.com can give you a clearer perspective on where your money is going. Setting back enough cash to cover six months of expenses with no income coming in can also give you a lot of peace of mind. It's great to know that if you have a major car repair or your income dips unexpectedly for a few months, you're not going to be struggling to pay your bills.
But the real key to socking away the dough is to think incrementally. The big checks help a lot, but as often as not, it's the small savings you make over the long haul that really pad your bank account.
Think about it like this: You're likely to work five days a week for at least 40 years, probably even longer than that for people under 40. So 40 times 260 working days a year equals $10,400. In other words, if you can find a way to save a dollar a day, that'll amount to an extra $10,400 dollars over the course of your working lifetime — much more if you invest the money.
Here are some ways to start putting more money back. Although most of them won't seem like huge difference-makers at first, over time they'll really add up.
1) Buy used cars: The average cost of a new car in 2009 was $28,400. In most states, $28,400 is more than half the median household income for an ENTIRE YEAR.
So, let's do a little comparison. One person buys a new car every five years. Another person buys a used car at half the price, takes care of it, and keeps it for a decade. After a 10 year period, the first person has spent $56,800 on transportation. The other person? He's spent $14,200. What could you do with an extra $42,600?
Let's take those numbers 40 years out. $42,600 x 4 = $170,400. That alone is bigger than the nest egg most Americans have saved up when they retire.
Not really a good choice for a first car.

USAID's adaptation work reaches field missions in Africa, Asia and Latin America with projects that support science, governance, and action for adaptation.
Activities build the resilience of countries, communities, individuals, and natural assets to climate change and variability from sudden events such as floods, storms as well as droughts and slower onset impacts such as hotter temperatures and sea-level rise. USAID activities enhance delivery of weather and climate information and tools and pilot new approaches to building resilience.
Climate Services
USAID works with countries around the world to increase access to climate and weather science, data and tools so that countries and communities can identify vulnerabilities and develop adaptation strategies to build climate resilience. USAID supports the growing global Climate Services Partnership (CSP), which matches decision-makers with information under the international Global Framework for Climate Services system. Learn more
The SERVIR-Global program helps some 30 countries access and use satellite imagery and climate and weather information. A collaborative effort by USAID and NASA, SERVIR provides decision-support tools via global hubs in East Africa, Central America, Hindu Kush/Himalaya region, with more hubs coming soon. Learn more
High Mountain Adaptation Partnership (HiMAP)
The HiMAP Partnership unites scientists, government officials and development practitioners working in glacier-dependent areas, including the Andes and the Himalaya-Hindu Kush and Central Asia regions. The partnership is a community of researchers and decision makers pursuing innovative approaches to lowering risks, for example from glacier lake outburst floods, and increasing development in high mountain areas. Learn more
Insurance for Farmers
Affordable insurance can help poor farmers prepare for and cope with droughts and severe weather events, which may become more common with climate change. Insurance is not a stand-alone solution, but it can be effective when combined with other risk management measures. USAID supports several projects to test these ideas and build the climate resilience of vulnerable households. Learn more
Gender and Climate Change
Women are disproportionately vulnerable to the effects of climate change. At the same time, they possess unique skills for addressing climate change, especially knowledge of local ecosystems, agriculture and natural resources management. USAID adaptation efforts integrate gender perspectives into activities because programs are more effective when women are engaged. Learn more

I'm really fond of Fred. It all started one night when my mom fell asleep with the TV on and my brother and I caught our first glimpse of A Nightmare on Elm Street. We sat there -- eyes glazed over and too scared to talk, but we were hooked. For the next several years, Freddy invaded our lives and not just our dreams. Fangoria magazines, Freddy costumes, the dreaded glove with gray, plastic finger-knives and flimsy brown fabric (I think we went through at least five gloves) and whatever else we could get our hands on.
Growing up Freddy wasn't cheap, but the allure of his sinister voice and pizza face kept us coming back for more. Throughout the years there were some cuckoo products and marketing strategies to promote the five-fingered fiend, some of which you can check out after the jump. Until we can determine if Samuel Bayer's Nightmare on Elm Street remake is a complete disaster or not, enjoy this little stroll down Elm Street.
Freddy's Greatest Hits
The year before future movie star Will Smith recorded Nightmare on My Street under the DJ Jazzy Jeff & The Fresh Prince moniker, RiC Records made an attempt hop on the Elm Street bandwagon by releasing Freddy's Greatest Hits -- making the nine tracks available on record and cassette. Robert Englund didn't actually sing any of the tracks, but he did lend his commentary to several of the songs. As you might imagine, the prevailing theme of the record was dreaming and/or sleeping and several of the tracks were covers of actual songs like Do the Freddy, which was a cover of a 1965 tune by Freddie and the Dreamers. Other covers included In the Midnight Hour and All I Have to Do Is Dream. The songs are a combination of haunted house, late 80's/early 90's rock ballads and a little New Wave. Yeah, it's pretty awful but it has a certain je ne sais quoi.
Freddy's Nighmares TV Series
The 80's hosted a series of TV horror anthologies including Lorimar Television's Freddy's Nightmares. Freddy played the delightful Crypt Keeper-like host and was featured in a few of the actual plot lines but since he was relegated to bit player status the ratings suffered and the show only lasted two seasons. The series took place in the fictitious town of Springwood, Ohio on Elm Street, where different characters and different storylines were featured each week. The pilot episode was directed by Tobe Hooper and some of the featured actors included then unknowns like Brad Pitt, Mariska Hargitay and Robin Antin. Freddy's Nightmares has not yet been released on DVD in the US and Canada, but Warner Home Video did issue a VHS which is now out of print. You can catch some of the old episodes on Chiller TV -- the next batch is airing on Tuesday, March 23.
Freddy Phone Fun
There's nothing wrong with children calling a 1-900 number and paying to talk to a child molester/murderer, is there? Marketing execs didn't think so and everyone's favorite crispy critter, Freddy, was part of the celebrity 1-900 number trend -- a strange and shameless way to cash in every child's hope that said celebrity's scripted message was actually meant for them. My brother and I called several times, until my mom saw the phone bill and blocked 1-900 phone calls.
Freddy and Nintendo
Does anyone else remember how ridiculous the Elm Street Nintendo game was? Your only defense in this side-scroller against snakes, bats and spiders (why are they there again?) is your fists. Yes, you punch everything. The object of the game is to recover Freddy's scattered bones (some impossible to find and all shaped like dog biscuits) and bury them in consecrated ground while navigating your way through pixel-reality and a dream world. The video review below says it all, but it's NSFW.
Freddy and The Fat Boys
I know I've already covered some of Freddy's musical career, but I had to include this video Robert Englund made with the Brooklyn hip-hop trio, The Fat Boys. The group was approached to record the song and video, Are You Ready for Freddy, which became the theme of A Nightmare on Elm Street 4: The Dream Master. The whole story behind the video is that Prince Markie Dee stands to inherit a house from his Uncle Fredrick ("He's from a part of my family we never mention.") after staying in the house for one night. Markie Dee brings along the other two Fat Boys who spend the night running around the house (in striped sweaters no less) getting the crap scared out of them by Freddy who eventually chases them out.
Freddy is a Doll
1989 was the year of Freddy the talking doll. Just pull the string on his back and your friendly neighborhood child molester utters sweet nothings in your ear like, "Let's be friends!" and "Welcome to Elm Street!" This is odd because he was usually saying things in the movies like, "I said where's the f*cking bourbon?!" and "Wanna suck face?"
Freddy Plays Games
I remember the 1989 board game, A Nightmare on Elm Street: The Freddy Game had a lot of pieces, but I don't actually remember playing it. Players use cards to make up a story that moves them through Freddy's house and they try to find him before he hunts them down. Trick is, one of the players is really Freddy. Along the way you collect weapons and special cards that help you out.
Freddy to the Maxx
Matchbox put out a Freddy Krueger doll in 1989 that seems to have been inspired in part by A Nightmare on Elm Street 2: Freddy's Revenge and the film's main character, Jesse Walsh. The Maxx FX Freddy doll was part of a series of horror dolls (Dracula, Alien, Frankenstein) where "regular" dolls were transformed into horror monsters by using various costumes and other nifty parts. Parents liked them more than some of the other toys because their children were more or less playing with a doll dressed like Freddy vs. playing with Freddy himself. Oh, and there was no Ken Doll crotch bulge.
Freddy Fright Squirter
Just look at the pictures. Need I say more?

Law Proposes Stronger Punishment for Child Abuse
"He loved to dance a lot, loved to sing. He was a wonderful, beautiful boy," said Richard Calhoun about his grandson Dominick.
Dominick was tortured for days before he died last April.
"I rushed over there and found him in the back bedroom, laying there with no motion," he said.
Neighbors admitted to hearing the four-year-old scream in terror at his family's Gennesee County apartment for days. But no one did anything.
"It hurts," said his dad, Eric Calhoun. "People could have reported it and maybe my son would still be alive."
"If I'd seen or heard a child get beaten, what would you do? You're gonna stop that right now," said Richard Calhoun.
He thinks witnessing and not reporting child abuse should be a crime. That's not included in "Dominick's Law," introduced Thursday afternoon by Representative Paul Scott, but other changes to Michigan's laws are.
"It'll give a judge more leeway to impose stiffer sentences on first, second, third degree child abusers," Scott said.
If passed, it would also make it a second crime to abuse a child in the presence of another minor. Scott says child abuse can be traumatic for another child to witness and should be punishable in its own right.
Dozens showed up to rally for these changes at the Capitol. Among them was mother-of-five Patty Hull.
"Anything to deter someone from doing what happened to Dominick," said Hull, who didn't know him personally but has been supporting and following the Calhoun family on Facebook. "It's such a sad story. I couldn't imagine any one of my kids, being without them. They're my life."
Seven-year-old Skyler Kimmel says it makes her sad to hear what happened to Dominick.
"[Parents are] not supposed to be mean and let their kid get hurt," she said, after her mom told her the story.
If he were alive, Dominick would have celebrated his sixth birthday this coming Monday, October 17.
His mother, Corrine Baker, will be sentenced October 24 in the case, and her boyfriend Brandon Hayes will stand trial beginning January 4, 2012, according to Richard Calhoun.

Rise and Shine Preschool in Camarillo to stay open
The Pleasant Valley Recreation and Park District board has rescinded a decision to close the Rise and Shine Preschool in Camarillo.
Families were told the school would have to close by the end of the school year, because of a lack of enrollment and money. But the board voted 3-2 Tuesday to keep it open.
District General Manager Dan LaBrado said parents, board members and Rise and Shine teacher Bonnie Baehne agreed to many caveats before the decision was made. "I met with the parents after the original board decision," LaBrado said. "We discussed a number of options, and the parents asked for some leeway. We came up with a number of conditions, and I brought those back to the board, along with several options."
The conditions included a 25 percent tuition increase, the formation of a parent advisory board with more active parent participation at the school, an annual fundraiser, and the reduction of Baehne's hours from 40 a week to 30. She will, however, remain a district employee and keep her medical insurance — a key concern for parents — although she will lose dental and vision benefits.
"The board retains the right, obviously, to review the progress of the school, and the enrollment numbers are going to have to go up," LaBrado said.
The district had hoped to attract 50 children when it opened the preschool about two years ago on Skyway Drive near the Camarillo Airport. But when the board decided in February to close it, it had only nine full-time students and a handful of part-time students.
LaBrado said the board would consider alternatives, such as further cuts or tuition increases, before deciding again whether to close the school. It also would give 60 days' notice before any closure, he said.
"The key thing is that the communication is open between the board and the parents," said John Kaspar, whose 5-year-old son attends the preschool. "The school will stay open, it will be reaccredited by the state by May 1, and Bonnie is still our teacher.
"We'll start networking and talking to friends to help increase enrollment," Kaspar said. "It's up to us now."
Baehne said she was happy with the latest decision. "The kids get to stay together and we get to be a little family again," she said. "I do 30 hours now rather than 40, but it will keep us open and it gives me more time to spend with my family and to work on my master's thesis, which I've been wanting to do.
"I'm so proud of the parents. They went out and got their school back."
Parent Marnie Eldridge said she was "thrilled and admittedly shocked."
"We thought the odds were against us and we're pleased the district gave us time to talk about it. We're glad Dan (LaBrado) gave us another chance," she said.
Eldridge is a former high school English teacher and is currently working on a master's in creative writing. "Eight of the 15 kids at our school have one or more parents in the education field," she said. "That should tell people something about how we feel about this program, and it's definitely one of the things we will use in talking to people and trying to increase enrollment."

My husband and I compost most food waste, use tote bags for grocery shopping, reuse other retail (besides groceries) plastic bags for trash bags, try to buy second hand items whenever possible, recycle anything recyclable, take snacks to work in containers instead of baggies, steer clear of paper products (no paper plates or cups).
Casselberry, FL
Recycle everything we can, compost kitchen scraps, use reusable grocery bags, stainless steel water bottles, cloth diapers, un-paper towels, and donate clothing and household items. The one thing we do not use (anymore) are CFL light bulbs b/c of the health/environmental dangers associated with them.

Stopped buying paper plates as well.
At work, we have switched to real coffee cups and the company no longer supplies paper or styrofoam cups.

They forget the 4th R: Reduce, Reuse, Recycle..REPAIR! I fix anything I can around the house--everything from staplers to our HVAC system. I kept my college car going well after I moved into the real world and made good money; it was cheaper for me to make the occasional $100 repair than buy a new one. Yeah, it wasn't exactly environmentally friendly, but the oil it burned (and leaked) compared to the carbon footprint of producing a new vehicle made that look like a drop in the bucket. It got pretty good mileage, too (34mpg).
My lawn mower was made the same year as my first car--1984--and apart from sharpening the blades and the occasional tuneup, it's perfectly fine for my needs. Again, a huge waste to buy a new one. And I doubt anyone would buy a 27 year old lawn tractor when the company that made it has been out of business for years (makes getting spare parts a little tough, trust me)
We throw out way too much stuff that could be easily repaired, but instead ends up in a landfill. I know this kind of falls under "Reuse", but most people think of that as reusing throwaway items, not maintaining the bigger-ticket stuff they have.
Next time you want to toss something broken, sit down and think about what's wrong with it, and try fixing it. You'd be surprised how easy it is--basic hand tools (screwdriver, hammer, pliers) and a little common sense can save you a lot of money.
