These are deeper and smaller in circumference than the last ones. I still like them very much especially the irregularity of the shape.

Chef's salad
Henrico man earns honor in homeland
Last month, as local veterans polished medals, buffed boots and starched uniforms in preparation for Memorial Day services, Paul Elbling left his Henrico home for a May 8 decoration ceremony.
Like recent holiday occasions in Sandston and at Fort Harrison National Cemetery, Elbling's event was long on red, white and blue and "The Star Spangled Banner" – even if lacking in small-town marching bands and Sousa music. But then, Elbling had hopped a trans-Atlantic flight to attend the ceremony – which took place in Blotzheim, France.
To Richmonders who know him as "Chef Paul," the owner and culinary artiste of La Petite France, it might come as a surprise to learn of Elbling's 18 months as a paratrooper and nurse in the French Algerian War. But as a 19-year-old in the French Army, Elbling rode ambulances around combat zones collecting the wounded, and made more than 100 jumps getting to the sites.
On his last jump in 1962, attempting to evacuate more injured, he was shot in the leg while still aloft. "Which is against the Geneva Convention," he says grimly, adding that he barely noticed the shock of his own wound.
"I was more concerned about my friend," he recalls, going on to describe the sight of a fellow paratrooper who had taken a much more serious hit. His friend did not survive.
After three weeks in the hospital, and additional time in therapy at a convalescent center, Elbling eventually returned to his culinary calling.
First medals were for cooking
Even though he was winning honors for his cooking by age 18 (a Gold Medal in culinary competition in Strasbourg), becoming a chef was actually Elbling's second-choice career. At age 12, he entered the seminary and studied for the priesthood two years before changing course and getting into the restaurant business. He jokes today that his decision was best for all concerned.
"When I went in the seminary," Elbling says with a laugh, "my older brother slapped my shoulder and said, 'Paul, if you become a priest one day, I will be the pope!' And I was afraid that my brother might be the pope!"
Beginning with an apprenticeship at a local restaurant as a young teen, Elbling embarked on a career that took him to, among others, the famous Carlton Hotel in Cannes, France, and the Georges V Hotel in Paris. As an apprentice, he worked 90-hour weeks with a dozen peers to help 57 cooks.
"[At one restaurant] we had a huge stove, the length of the dining room," he recalls, noting that the massive fixture connected to the water pipes supplying the hotel above. "We had to be down there every day at 5:30 a.m. to clean the stove – so the hotel residents would have hot water."
Two years after becoming a chef in the resort city of Baden-Baden, Germany, Elbling earned his European Master Chef Degree. That same year, driving near his home in the Alsace region of France, he met his wife-to-be, Marie Antoinette.
"On the road, she passed me going very fast. She made a fishtail!" he says, tracing the car's near spin-out with a gesture. Indignant, Elbling caught up with Marie at the next stoplight. "I got out of my car and gave her hell," he says.
Marie began crying. "It's my birthday," she told the stranger. "I'm going to my birthday party and I'm in a hurry. . . Would you like to come?"
After the couple married, they came to America in 1967, fulfilling a dream Elbling had had since he was five years old. He had never forgotten the Americans who liberated his family from a German labor farm in 1945. "They gave us Hershey bars and Spam," he says, describing the menu as if it were a sumptuous gourmet repast. "[Spam] was the first meat I'd ever had.
"Now when I go hunting or fishing, I always take a can of Spam," he adds. "It brings a good memory."
When the Elbling family returned home from the labor farm, they found their house bombed. Lt. Joe O'Neill of Chicago, who then drove the family to Paul's grandparents' house to live, kept in touch for years afterwards. He helped Elbling with the paperwork that allowed him to move to America, but passed away before the process was finalized.
"Otherwise," says Elbling, "I'd be in Chicago today."
Guinness world records
After three years in Washington, D.C., where he served as chef in the Restaurant Chez Francois and the Washington Hotel, the Elblings moved to metro Richmond. Since establishing La Petite France, Paul Elbling has compiled a lengthy resume of honors, including Richmond Small Businessman of the Year (1982), Restaurateur of the Year from the Virginia Restaurant Association (1985), Academy Award of the Restaurant Industry, and the Great American Chef's Award.
He has also been cited for excellence in Southern Living and Gourmet Magazine and earned several records in the Guinness Book of World Records, including one for the world's largest omelet (10,470 eggs), world's largest ice carving and longest sandwich.
All the Guinness stunts were charity benefits, and he continues to be a frequent contributor of auction items (the latest a dinner for 10, prepared at the buyer's home) for non-profits such as the Maymont Foundation and Heart Fund. For another favorite charity, Little Sisters of the Poor, Elbling has helped raise more than $1 million. He also thoroughly enjoys getting monthly letters from two youngsters in Appalachia "adopted" through Children, Inc.
Among his proudest accomplishments, however, was founding the Virginia Chefs Association apprenticeship program. His first apprentice remains at La Petite France with him 35 years later.
"He would never leave," Elbling jokes.
Another one of his most satisfying achievements was winning two gold medals for the United States in the 1980 International Culinary Olympiques.
"When we got the gold medal," he recalls, "my old chef from the George V – 83 years old – was there watching, and he had tears in his eyes."
Elbling was equally emotional as French officials awarded him four medals – what military types jokingly refer to as a "fruit salad" of colorful ribbons -- for his wartime medical service at the recent ceremony in Blotzheim.
"What was very impressive about this was my brother, a retired general, was the one pinning on the medal," he says. "And the kids [of Blotzheim] came with American flags, and they played the [American] anthem.
"I had tears in my eyes."
The medals, soon to be mounted on the wall of his home off River Road, recall for Elbling the cherished memory of a conversation in 1970, when he and Marie returned to France to be at the bedside of his dying mother.
"She was always very jovial," Elbling says of his mother. "First, she told my wife, 'Marie Antoinette, Paul is a good boy, but keep him on a leash!' [Marie] hasn't forgotten that!" he says with a laugh.
Then his mother turned to him and said, "I am so happy for you. Your dream has come true."
"We wouldn't go back [to France] for anything," Elbling concludes emphatically.
"We love it here."

A fun, fuzzy ride
'Muppets Most Wanted' worthy of its franchise
Do Muppets sleep? It's hard to say.
They don't really eat (or breathe, as far as anyone can tell). And only occasionally do they have visible, functioning legs.
As far as anyone knows, sleeping might be off the table. And that makes it very hard to accuse the Muppets of sleepwalking through their latest feature, Muppets Most Wanted – even if that's exactly what's going on.
Jim Henson's beloved creations were back in a big way after 2011's The Muppets, with fame and fortune and even an Oscar, a first for the group ("Rainbow Connection" was nominated, yet somehow failed to collect at the '79 ceremony). > Read more.

Manaphy is often left in the dust in lieu of its fellow Uber Water-types Kyogre and Palkia. Manaphy absolutely needs rain support from Kyogre to do anything in Ubers, and both Kyogre and Palkia have much better offensive stats as well as movepools. Furthermore, Manaphy also has to compete with fellow rain abusers Kingdra and Kabutops, who both get Swift Swim to boost their Speed stats to astronomical levels. (Kingdra even gets Dragon-type STAB like Palkia.) Faced with these competitors, one may think that there is no reason to use Manaphy at all.
However, Manaphy does have a few tricks up its sleeve. Hydration, when used with Rest and rain support, allows Manaphy to instantly heal itself and remove any status condition, which no other Pokemon in Ubers can do. It may not be as immediately threatening as either Kyogre or Palkia, but its access to Tail Glow means it can power up faster than either of them. Manaphy is also much bulkier than Kingdra and Kabutops.
Its movepool is somewhat limited compared to its fellow Ubers and rain abusers, but what it has is just enough to make it a decent threat.
This is Manaphy's best sweeping set, allowing it to easily increase its Special Attack to astronomical levels with Tail Glow, Rest off the damage, wake up instantly thanks to Hydration, and sweep. Make sure you are packing rain support when using this set, as that is what makes Manaphy truly shine.
Ice Beam is generally the better option in the last slot, giving Manaphy an easy OHKO on Rayquaza, who can negate rain's side-effects with Air Lock, making Hydration useless. It also helps against the other Dragon-types, like Giratina, Latias, and Latios. Grass Knot ensures an OHKO on Kyogre, hits Palkia harder than Ice Beam, and can hit Groudon and Tyranitar who may come in to stop the rain. Neither option leaves you entirely helpless against certain foes, however. For example, if you go with Ice Beam, you can still 2HKO Kyogre with Surf, thanks to boosts from Tail Glow, Life Orb, and Drizzle. If you opt for Grass Knot, then you can still 2HKO Rayquaza with a Life Orb Surf after a Tail Glow boost. Latios can also be 2HKOed by boosted Surfs in the rain, even accounting for Soul Dew (his more defensive sister will usually survive two hits though).
The choice of item depends on your personal preference. Leftovers makes for a sturdier Manaphy and can ease set-up. Life Orb gives it some extra kick, and the 10% recoil can be made up for with Rest, especially with Hydration.
The EVs are fairly straightforward. Max Special Attack is necessary to inflict as much damage as possible. The Speed EVs allow Manaphy to outrun all base 90s who do not hold a Choice Scarf, including Kyogre, Groudon, and Dialga, while also letting Manaphy beat max Speed Adamant Rayquaza. The HP EVs give Manaphy decent bulk to assist in setting up, while also minimizing Life Orb recoil. One could also elect to pull EVs from HP to increase Manaphy's Speed to 319 (Timid, 216 EVs), if you are paranoid about Jolly Rayquaza.Team Options & Additional Comments >>>
This set is designed to abuse Toxic and Rest. Poison your foes and stall them out with Rest, while they slowly die from the intensifying damage. Ice Beam is present to kill off Rayquaza, lest he spoil your fun with Air Lock. Grass Knot will hit Kyogre and also takes a big chunk out of Groudon. Light Screen and Reflect are options in the final two slots for more stalling potential and team support. Heart Swap could also be used here to prevent foes from setting up on you.
Since this is a defensive set, the EVs should reflect it. You'll want this Manaphy to be slow so it can take hits, as even Thunder from Choice Scarf Kyogre fails to OHKO, barring a critical hit. The Special Attack EVs ensure you will always OHKO minimum HP Rayquaza and can then Rest up to full health. Because Manaphy still has a slight chance to OHKO Rayquaza even with minimum Special Attack, it is possible, although not recommended, to switch the Special Attack EVs to either of the defensive stats. You can also opt to simply max out HP and Special Defense. This gives you a chance to survive Thunder from Modest Choice Specs Kyogre, as Manaphy will always survive a hit from Timid versions.Team Options & Additional Comments >>>
This set aims to utilize Manaphy's decent bulk to pull off a slow sweep. The idea is to switch into a Pokemon who can't really threaten Manaphy and set up a Calm Mind. From there, Calm Mind up and Rest off damage when Manaphy's HP gets low. Even after just one Calm Mind, Manaphy manages to survive many attacks with plenty of HP to spare, allowing it to continue to use Calm Mind and Rest until it is powerful enough to sweep. Manaphy is also able to take physical hits reasonably well. For instance, it can survive an unboosted Garchomp's Outrage and KO back with Ice Beam. Surf is Manaphy's STAB move, being bolstered by the rain that Kyogre provides. The last move is for coverage. Ice Beam KOes Rayquaza who can nullify the weather, and hence remove Manaphy's ability to Rest. Ice Beam also hits Dragon-type Pokemon like Garchomp, Giratina, Latias, and Latios for super effective damage while allowing Manaphy to hit Dialga and Palkia for neutral damage. Grass Knot is for Kyogre switch-ins. Here are a few damage calculations to demonstrate Manaphy's ability to take hits:
As shown above, after a Calm Mind, Manaphy can take on quite a lot of special attacks and Rest off the damage while continuing to build up Calm Minds. It should be noted, however, that Latias and Latios can Calm Mind alongside Manaphy, and Shaymin-S can easily remove the Special Defense boosts gained through Calm Mind with Seed Flare.Team Options & Additional Comments >>>
Other Options
For EVs in the use in sweeping sets, you'll want Timid with at least 308 Speed (Timid, 176 EVs) to beat Kyogre, Groudon, and Ho-Oh. You can aim for 319 (Timid, 216 EVs) to get ahead of max Speed Rayquaza. Max Speed is only useful if you wish to tie with Timid Palkia. Max out Special Attack afterwards, with anything left placed in HP.
You can use a bulkier spread if you want Manaphy to take hits while setting up Tail Glow. 172 HP EVs allows Manaphy to survive a Choice Scarf Thunder from Kyogre, although you'll have to sacrifice Speed or Special Attack.
For the Toxic stalling set, you'll want lots of HP and some Special Defense. You can aim for 277 Special Attack if you wish to guarantee an OHKO on minimum HP Rayquaza, although even without any EV investment, you still have a small chance of scoring an OHKO. Otherwise, simply max out Special Defense, which will give you a good chance of surviving a Choice Specs Thunder from Modest Kyogre, and will always survive a hit from Timid versions.
Manaphy also has several other moves at its disposal. Heart Swap is Manaphy's signature move and can be used to steal stat boosts from opponents. Calm Mind can go over Tail Glow for a more defensive minded set-up. Energy Ball can replace Grass Knot if you're concerned about other Manaphy, but otherwise, Grass Knot is the better choice against other Ubers. Shadow Ball is a surprisingly poor option, since rain-boosted Surfs do more to the likes of Mewtwo and Deoxys, while Ice Beam does more to Dragon-types, such as Giratina, Latias, and Latios. Substitute is a decent option on sweeper sets, ordinarily over Rest, and can also work with Calm Mind. After a few Calm Minds your Substitute will be increasingly hard to break, especially with the popularity of special attacks in the Ubers metagame. Manaphy also learns Reflect and Light Screen, which it can use to assist it and its teammates in taking the brutal assaults of Ubers play. Manaphy can also run a Choice Specs set if you want power without having to set up. While it does have U-turn and the ability to shrug off status thanks to Hydration, it is largely outclassed in the offensive department by other Choice Specs users, such as Kyogre and Palkia, should you go that route.
Checks and Counters
Calm Mind Blissey makes a fine counter and can stat up alongside Manaphy before finishing it off with Thunder. Dialga can wall its attacks quite effectively and Roar it out or hit back with Thunder. Latias' massive Special Defense stat prevents Ice Beam from hurting her and her superior Speed, backed up with Recover, allows her to set up Calm Minds on Manaphy, eventually firing a powerful Dragon Pulse or Thunder, that would ultimately annihilate it. Her Speed also means that Manaphy won't be fast enough to Heart Swap Latias' Calm Minds before being KOed. Palkia's 4x resistance to Surf and a very good base 120 Special Defense allows it to land a Choice Specs Thunder on Manaphy, easily OHKOing it. If Manaphy does not pack Grass Knot, Kyogre can switch into Manaphy with impunity and throw a very powerful Thunder at it.
Beware of Rayquaza, Groudon, or Tyranitar switching in on Rest, as their ability to change the weather means Manaphy will be stuck sleeping for two turns, giving them ample time to set up for a sweep.

Budget Plan, Farm Bill Topics at Heitkamp GF Town HallGRAND FORKS (WDAZ-TV) - Senate candidate Heidi Heitkamp talked about Republican Paul Ryan's budget and her own platform during a town hall meeting in Grand Forks on Thursday night.
GRAND FORKS (WDAZ-TV) - Senate candidate Heidi Heitkamp talked about Republican Paul Ryan's budget and her own platform during a town hall meeting in Grand Forks on Thursday night.
About 70 people came to Heitkamp's town hall discussion. The big topic of discussion was the Paul Ryan budget plan that was approved by the House at the end of March.
"Agriculture is still so critical to North Dakota's economy," Heitkamp said.
The current farm bill expires this year and Congressman Rick Berg acknowledges the need for new legislation.
"Part of this whole process is trying to get that bill agreed to in the house and senate and passed so we have some stability in agriculture," Berg said.
But Heitkamp claims Berg's vote in favor of the Paul Ryan budget will hurt the farm bill.
"Senator Conrad has listed this as a very, very serious challenge in getting the farm bill pushed through the House and getting the farm bill actually passed," Heitkamp said.
The Senate race between Rick Berg and Heidi Heitkamp is expected to be a heated battle. Heitkamp says just one of the many differences between the two is Berg's support of the Ryan budget plan.
"Somebody who voted for this, $180 billion in cuts. We know who that is, it's Paul Ryan's budget voted favorably by Congressman Berg," Heitkamp said.
As this Senate race gets underway, it's expected that both sides will be spending a lot of money. It was announced this week that a new Super PAC will be spending money in the state to help Berg's campaign.

UTI Dog - Home Remedy
Urinary tract infection can be as troublesome for your pet as it is for you. UTI in puppies and adult dogs is marked by an extremely irritating symptom - urinating at odd places despite the dog having been toilet trained. However, getting irritated and angry with your pet is not the solution since he is not to blame. In most cases you ailing dog may not even be aware of the dribbles as they pass out involuntarily. Severe instances of canine and feline urinary infection are mostly caused due to bladder stones that block the urethral passage. Despite a full bladder the dog is unable to urinate even when he tries hard. The back pressure of the urine often forces urine around the blockage to leak out in small quantities at a time.
Urinary tract infection in dogs is a fairly common condition. UTI can lead to the formation of bladder stones and bladder stones, in turn, can obstruct the free flow of urine and facilitate infection in the accumulated urine. Both UTI and bladder stones tend to recur frequently, which can make life quite uncomfortable for the ailing dog. However, if you take proper care from the beginning you can be instrumental in avoiding either of the problems and ensure an easier life for your pet.
Urine is normally sterile. Bacteria usually travel upwards from the urethral opening to infect the urinary tract. Keep your pet clean with increased attention to the genital areas. If your pet is prone to develop UTI frequently, wipe its bottom every time after urination, especially in the case of female dogs. This is because the female urethra is very small and bacteria can climb up to the bladder easily. Female dogs that have been spayed at an early age tend to grow loose tissue and urine tends to gather around it.
Dogs that drink less water urinate less. This allows urine to collect in the bladder. Stale urine inside the body is a sure invitation to bacterial infections. Give additional fluids to your dog. Sometimes, dogs refuse to drink water because of chemicals in the drinking water. It is advisable to give your dog filtered or spring water to drink. If possible, keep water bowls at his favorite places. If you still find that the dog is not drinking enough water, feed him moist foods or add a little bit of chicken froth or water to dry food.
Avoid giving foods that contain preservatives and additives. These can weaken the dog's immune system. With restricted natural defense against bacterial invasion the animal becomes more vulnerable to infections. Home cooked and natural foods are best for overall health of your pet.
Home care and prevention reduces the risk of UTI in dogs to a great extent. Despite your efforts if you notice blood in the dog's urine, straining to urinate or a bad odor in the urine, it is time to take him to the veterinarian for a check up.

Yule, A pagan festival also called the Winter Solstice, celebrates the rebirth of the Sun, the Sun God and honors the Horned God. On Yule we experience the longest night of the year. Although much of the winter's harshest weather is still ahead of us, we celebrate the coming light, and thank the Gods for seeing us through the longest night. It is a time to look on the past year's achievements and to celebrate with family and friends. From this day until Midsummer, the days grow longer, everyday banishing the darkness a little more in a glow of the warm sunlight that brings the world to life again. This day is the official first day of winter. This holiday will fall somewhere between the dates above and varies from year to year depending on when the Sun reaches the southern most point in its yearly trek.

My spouse and I have always purchased our rugs in person and after this experience we unfortunately will have to stick to that. We were excited about the look and price of this rug and the description telling of golds, reds and greens seemed to match the picture online. Unfortunately upon receiving it the "reveal" was very disappointing as we looked at each other and said "blue?!?!" I'm not saying this is a bad rug, simply be cautious that the inner rectangle is dominantly a darker brown and the outer rectangle is clearly blue. The colors are not muted like in the picture. If that's what you want, you'll probably like this rug, unfortunately its not what we wanted. Lastly the shipping was incredibly fast so Overstock did a great job there.
The colors were totally off from the picture. Did I say that already? The reds are not even red. The center is brown not tan. The border is missing one whole strip around it which throws everything off balance. The light teal in the picture is actually grey. I am completely disatisfied with this. I could handle some variations but this isn't close. The piles on the rug are good and tight and very thick. The quality is good. Too bad everything else is all wrong. I'm sending it back on Overstock's dime as it is not my fault that it is all wrong.
OK, so... I read the reviews before purchasing and knew that many felt the color was way different than the picture, and I, too, felt this way when I unrolled it. But when you zoom in and look closely at the detail of the rug, it's accurately photographed. This is a medium-brown rug (tan), and what O.co is calling Ivory, I would call a light cafe color. This rug is brown, brown, brown. And yes, there's unexpected blue, too, but I'm ok with that. In all, I think the quality is pretty average, maybe a step up from a piled Home Depot or Target area rug. If I had seen it in a store before purchasing, I probably wouldn't have bought it.
This is a fabulous rug but almost a gray and light blue color with bursts of cranberry. This is not the color i needed but I made it work. LOVELY and well made. Safavieh is the best. Thanks O!
They carpet has continued to fluff off and I have had it for a number of years. I would be cautious about buying a carpet again without seeing it first.
I love this rug,it is just right and fits into my color scheme
I am very happy with my purchase. I love this rug. The colors are just what I expected and true to what you'll see on the website. It's thick & plush. It goes very well in my room. It was also a great value. The on,y negative was it had quite an odor when I took it out of the package. It went away after a bit. I'm sure it was the newness.
Very pleased with this, think it will be even better in daylight!
I ordered this rug for the living room and even though colors are subtle it provides a nice texture and looks good with my dark brown sofa. It is thick and soft underfoot. It had a smell and I had to air it outside. It lays flat and is very well finished underneath. Overall a great value for the price.
I am only keeping this because I am too lazy to return it and it was a good deal price wise. And I really need it - recently I had to get area rugs for all over the house because my senior German Shepherd has been unable to walk easily on the wood floors. I bought this carpet as a 20 foot runner for a hallway and I bought the matching one for my study. My issue is that it is very washed out looking, most tan and very very pale green with a few reddish accents. It might look nice though in a room painted a soft sage green. But in my room with frost walls, it is "pasty looking"

There are times where windows doesn't correctly provide the maximum or native resolutions of our monitors. When this happens, sometimes we need to go through some advanced settings to get things set correctly. We will be going over various methods; some through windows, some through your GPU's (Graphic Processing Unit) control panel. Click on the links below to go to the solution most appropriate for your situation.
Now that we've changed the resolution that's output by the operating system to match your monitor's native resolution, everything should be displayed crystal clear. These settings sometimes do not carry over with some full screen applications, such as games. To overcome this, you will need to change the resolution in that programs' setting menu to match the native resolution of the monitor.
If the picture quality is not clear, we need to do some troubleshooting. The links to follow for this troubleshooting are located at the very top of this article.
note: administrator account is needed to adjust system settings.
Note: If you are not able to set the Native Resolution, update your graphics card drivers and then try again. For detailed information on updating your graphics card drivers, refer to the documentation of your graphics card or your computer.
Your monitor may go blank or flicker after you click the Apply button.
If the Monitor Settings window appears, you only have 15-20 seconds to click Yes, before the resolution will revert back to what it was set to previously.
We can use graphics control panels to change resolution as well. In this instructable we will go over Intel's Control Panel. These are just alternate means to adjust the resolution if the methods above aren't working correctly. The information below is using Intel's control panel to change the resolution output by your computer.
We can get into the Intel Control Panel two different ways:
If you have an nVidia graphic card we can use the nVidia Control Panel to adjust the resolution. The menus may not match exactly depending the version your computer is using, the process is similar if this is the case.

I do not have CS4, but from what I have heard, that functionality was removed in CS4, meaning you cannot make Flash buttons in Dreamweaver anymore. You would have to go back to CS3 to be able to do this.
Adobe removed Flash Buttons from DW CS4 for web accessibility reasons. Flash navigation is not web friendly. Try using CSS styled text links or the built-in CS4 Spry navigation tools.

Youngstown State (17-25)
Valparaiso (29-25)
5/8/2013 | Chicago, Ill. | Attendance: 0
Related Links
Wednesday, May 08, 2013
Eight unearned runs proved to be Valparaiso's undoing in its opener of the 2013 Horizon League Championship on Wednesday afternoon, as the third-seeded Crusaders fell by a final score of 9-1 to sixth-seeded Youngstown State in Chicago, Ill. The Crusaders will play an elimination game Thursday afternoon at 4 p.m.
Each side got a one-out single in the first inning before Youngstown State plated seven unearned runs in the second. The Crusaders got the first out of the inning before an error on a pop-up in the infield. A single and walk loaded the bases before Haley Knight's RBI single put the Penguins on the board. A fielding error allowed another run to score and a two-run single from Courtney Ewing made it 4-0 YSU. The Penguins capped their seven-run frame with an RBI double by Miranda Castiglione and a two-run double by Sarah Gabel.
Valpo was able to slice a run off the deficit in the bottom of the third, as fifth-year senior Joylyn Ichiyama (Torrance, Calif./Redondo Union) connected on a two-out solo homer which cleared the left-center fence, her team-high seventh homer of the year. But Youngstown State closed out the run-rule win in the fifth, as RBI base hits from Caroline Krombach and Knight gave the Penguins an eight-run lead.
Casey Crozier earned the complete-game win for Youngstown State (17-25) to improve to 14-8, striking out nine Crusaders. Freshman Taylor Weissenhofer (Homer Glen, Ill./Lockport Township) took the loss to fall to 17-11 for the Crusaders, giving up all seven second-inning runs in 1.2 innings of work, none of which were earned.
Valparaiso (29-25), which won the 2012 Horizon League Championship after losing its first game, will have to do the same thing this year. The journey starts at 4 p.m. Thursday afternoon against the loser of an earlier game between UIC and Wright State. The game can be seen live on the Horizon League Network and heard live on WVUR (95.1 FM, Valparaiso), with links for the live audio, video and stats available through ValpoAthletics.com.

We're getting our first official look at elements of the upcoming Mercedes-AMG GT sports...
Ricky and Jordan Taylor led their respective classes Friday in qualifying for the 30th running of the Sahlen's Six Hours of The Glen, becoming the first brothers to win pole positions for both the Grand-Am Rolex Sports Car Series Daytona Prototype and GT classes at the same event.
Ricky Taylor won his second consecutive Daytona Prototype pole, running a lap of 1 minute 40.691 seconds (121.560 mph) in the No. 10 SunTrust Dallara-Chevrolet, while younger brother Jordan took his third career pole and first of the season with a lap of 1:51.939 (109.345 mph) in the No. 88 Autohaus Motorsports Chevrolet Camaro.
"It's tremendous, and I can't get my arms around it yet," said their father, racing veteran and two-time Rolex 24 At Daytona winner and SunTrust team owner Wayne Taylor. "They've both won poles in the past, but to get them at the same time--and especially at Watkins Glen. This is such a big event, because they qualified here against the fast guys. This was the first time Ricky's qualified against Scott Pruett--and it's a big thing for him--and it was fantastic for Jordan against the top GT guys."
SunTrust is seeking its second-consecutive victory, after winning Monday's Memorial Day Classic at Lime Rock Park in dominating fashion.
Antonio Garcia was second in DP qualifying with a lap of 1:40.909 (121.297 mph), giving the No. 90 Spirit of Daytona Coyote-Chevrolet its fourth straight front row start.
Scott Pruett qualified third in the No. 01 TELMEX Riley-BMW with a lap of 1:41.011 (121.175 mph). He and Memo Rojas are seeking their fourth consecutive victory in the event. Alex Gurney--who joined co-driver Jon Fogarty in winning the 2007 Sahlen's Six Hours--qualified fourth with a lap of 1:41.787 (120.251 mph) in the No. 99 GAINSCO Auto Insurance Riley-Chevrolet.
Jordan Taylor's pole--the first for Autohaus Motorsports--continues a torrid streak for the team which has moved he and co-driver Bill Lester to second in the production-based GT championship. Lester became the first African-American to win in the Rolex Series when the team scored its first victory at Virginia International Raceway last month, followed by a
second-place finish Monday at Lime Rock Park. Tom Milner Jr. will join the team for Saturday's Sahlen Six Hours.
General Motors products swept the top four positions in GT qualifying. Robin Liddell will join Jordan Taylor on the front row after running a lap of 1:52.189 (109.102 mph) in the No. 57 Stevenson Auto Group Chevrolet Camaro co-driven by Ronnie Bremer. Oliver Gavin timed in third fastest with a lap of 1:52.304 (108.990 mph) in the No. 07 The Cool TV/Mobil 1 Chevrolet Camaro co-driven by Gunter Schaldach and Mike Skeen.

State Rep. Terry Morrow's decision to leave the Minnesota Legislature for a job in Chicago with the Uniform Law Commission (ULC) is a bit surprising. Morrow, a Gustavus Adolphus College professor is a DFL legislator who served three terms in the district that was redrawn into House District 19A. He was unopposed in this past election, and seemed ready to assume some leadership in the new DFL majority in the House, especially as vice-chair of the House Higher Education Finance Committee.
Morrow was also expected to be a strong voice on local issues, such as the Highway 14 expansion project.
But Morrow, who has a background as a lawyer as well as an academic, will be guiding legislation on a national basis, not just in the state. He was contacted after the election by the ULC and offered a position. The ULC is a non-profit, non-partisan organization that "provides states with non-partisan, well conceived, and well drafted legislation that brings clarity and stability to critical areas of state statutory law," according to the ULC?website.
Gov. Mark Dayton will call a special election to fill the 19A seat sometime in January. It will need to be a quick election - the new legislative session starts on Jan. 8. That doesn't provide a lot of time for parties to pick candidates, and for the candidates to campaign.
We expect local DFLers and Republicans will look to recruit candidates with name recognition and perhaps some past legislative experience to make the quick run to replace Morrow.

How might mitochondrial neurogastrointestinal encephalopathy syndrome be diagnosed?
The clinical diagnosis of mitochondrial neurogastrointestinal encephalopathy syndrome (MNGIE) is based on the presence of severe gastrointestinal dysmotility (when the muscles and nerves of the digestive system do not move food through the digestive tract efficiently), cachexia (wasting away of muscle and fat tissue), ptosis, external ophthalmoplegia (weakness in the muscles that control eye movement), sensorimotor neuropathy, asymptomatic leukoencephalopathy (observed on brain MRI), and a family history consistent with autosomal recessive inheritance.[1]
Direct evidence of MNGIE syndrome can be provided by one of the following:
Direct evidence of MNGIE syndrome can be provided by one of the following:
- A blood test showing an increase in plasma thymidine concentration (greater than 3 µmol/L) and an increase in plasma deoxyuridine concentration (greater than 5 µmol/L). This is sufficient to make the diagnosis of MNGIE disease.
- Thymidine phosphorylase enzyme activity in leukocytes (white blood cells) less than 10% of the control mean.[1]

For thousands of years the Cursed Ones hid in the shadows, fooling mankind into thinking they didn't exist. Then one day they just . . . stopped. Skeptics turned into believers one fateful dawn. And no one was ever safe again.
No one knows why they made themselves known. Why they chose a Valentine's Day in the early twenty-first century to reveal their presence. Some say it had something to do with the end of the world. Others that they simply grew tired of hiding.

text: John Vogel Archives Email Author The Grain Bin Boom: What's Ahead With projected grain yield trends, Co-Bank analysis indicates U.S. farms will have to find new Corn Belt storage for another 2.3 billion bushels by 2019 Published on: Jun 25, 2012 Tweet Post to Your Wall. Email Story RSS Permalink Print Thinking about putting up more grain storage? Prepare to get in line and wait awhile. And investigate low-interest Farm Storage Facility Loan opportunities via USDA's Farm Service Agency. The current grain storage building boom is far from over if long-term national corn and soybean yield trend lines are any measure. USDA's yield trend lines suggest that corn yields are increasing 2.32 bushels per acre per year. Soybean yields are rising at a not-so-spectacular 0.45-bushel clip. But an analysis by CoBank, a Denver-based Farm Credit cooperative bank, reports that billions of dollars more must be invested in new storage to handle peak grain production between now and 2019. In just the Corn Belt, grain storage must be expanded to handle 2.3 billion more bushels of grain, according to Dan Kowalski, lead analyst at Co-Bank's Knowledge Exchange Division.MORE GRAIN, MORE STORAGE: While both on-farm and commercial grain storage are growing, commercial storage is expanding almost twice as fast. More than half of that extra storage is expected to be built off-farm, costing an estimated $3.8 billion. Most of it'll be built in the Corn Belt states of Illinois, Iowa and Nebraska. The report, "Change on the Rural Horizon: Managing the Expansion of Grain Storage in the Corn Belt" estimates that roughly 80% of U.S. grain storage capacity is located within the 12-state Corn Belt region. And, the region accounts for 90% of new capacity added since 2005. Off-farm storage now accounts for 42% of Corn Belt capacity. Its share grew nearly twice as fast as on-farm storage. That suggests, according to Kowalski, that most producers are opting to take on less risk and less leverage by utilizing elevator storage. Meeting the evolving needs of grain producers will be critical to the future survival and success of grain handling firms, he says. The average commercial grain storage facility has grown by 30% since 2005. Even before 2005, the grain storage/merchandising business model was shifting toward larger networks and storage systems encompassing multiple counties. Continued success will depend on the ability to offer sufficient storage in optimal locations, faster/newer technology and competitive rates, he concludes.

EVE Online Retail Box Includes 60 Days of Game Timeby Nick Breckon, Feb 24, 2009 12:36pm PST
Developer CCP has revealed the contents of the upcoming EVE Online (PC) retail release, set for launch on March 10.
The box will conveniently include all ten of the free expansions to the spaceship MMO, including the major upcoming update "Apocrypha."
In addition, the box will also ship with 60 days of free game time. As the by-month subscription to EVE costs $14.95, and the retail box costs $34.95, the thing will nearly pay for itself.
CCP also notes that the game time can be used to extend an existing subscription, or be split into two 30-day codes that can be sold for in-game currency. Only in EVE.
A few more retail bonuses after the break:
- INSTANT WAR ACCESS: This certificate allows rapid access to organized combat (through increased standings), helping new players get into the action quickly.
- EXCLUSIVE CAREER GUIDE: Accessed via the website to allow for dynamic updates, the guide includes insider tips and tricks.
- VIP PASS: Use this card to invite a friend to try the game for 21 days. When that friend becomes an EVE Online subscriber, you will get an additional 30 days of free game time.
- EXCLUSIVE IN-GAME SHIP: An exclusive new ship, the Interbus Shuttle, will allow players to fly in style with an increased capacity cargo hold to ferry those extra crucial items at high speeds.

We just went through this in Pennsylvania, it all boils down to the arresting officer's interpretation of the law. I was pulled over 3 weeks after our law went into affect, showed the officer my Waze and he told me to next time pull over before entering in data. Fair enough. He did not ticket me.
I use a dash mount which also gives the impression that my cell phone is my GPS navigation and that helps A LOT.
I understand and support these laws, but I do want the same freedom that other GPS users have to use their device when on the move. In PA we are currently fighting the wording of the law 'Mobile electronic device' since most new GPS units connect and interact with the internet for traffic alert delivery and most need some form of user interaction. These laws are pretty new in the states so a lot of work is needed to make them fair. As it stands now my local town (Lancaster) has held off on enacting the new law until the wording is corrected and what can be used as a GPS device is clearly defined.

Easy Interview
I applied through college or university and the process took 3 weeks - interviewed at AXA Advisors in March 2014.
Interview Details Was contacted shortly after applying through my university. I came in for an initial interview where I met with the Managing Director. He then wanted me to come up with a marketing plan and return for a follow-up interview the next week. I created my plan, but it was not what he was looking for and told me to come up with AT LEAST 100 people who could be prospective clients and then come back again.
Interview Question – How would you deal with the rejection you would be faced with when first starting out in a financial advisor's position? Answer Question

Average Interview
I applied through college or university and interviewed at AXA Advisors.
Interview Details Multiple step interview process really detailed the position and expectations. They said it would be hard and it was but they also talked about the benefits of the position too. They first went through the things they help clients with, then showed what they actually discuss with their clients in meetings and finally talked about the compensation potential which is huge!
Interview Question – Tell me about a time when you have faced rejection and outline how you handled it? Answer Question
Negotiation Details – No negotiation.

Negative Experience
Easy Interview
I applied in-person and interviewed at AXA Advisors.
Interview Details Mostly personality questions, they want to know if you want to sell products all day. 4 stage interview, no hard questions throughout any of the stages. They just want to see if you keep coming back for interviews. All smoke and mirros during the process where the hiring manager tempts you with the one success story within the industry and how good and highly ranked his team is.
Interview Question – No technical questions. Just say you are willing to work 80 hours a week and want to make a lot of money. Use them for the Series 7 and leave. You will be viewed negatively in the industry if you work for AXA. I know all this through hindsight. View Answer
Negotiation Details – No negotiation. It is a commission only job. Or a very small salary that they tell you is around 45k, but in reality is 2k a month.

Average Interview
I applied online and the process took 1 week - interviewed at AXA Advisors in January 2014.
Interview Details The interview itself was fairly easy. I met one-on-one with an upper level management position who was pretty laid back. He asked a lot of questions to see if you are right for this type of job. The job was not really what I expected as it is almost all sales, and if you don't know people you fail. I declined a second interview.
Interview Question – Describe a specific time when you were really competitive.
How do you deal with rejection? Answer Question
Reason for Declining – They offered a second interview, but I decided not to go. You have to take licensing exams and pay for them out of pocket, all while not getting paid.
Declined Offer
Neutral Experience
I applied through college or university and the process took 2 weeks - interviewed at AXA Advisors.
Interview Details Found them through an on campus job link. Received a phone call shortly after, asking me to do a phone interview or come in to the office. Since they were not willing to pay for travel. I did a phone interview. After phone interview, I was called and asked to do the 2nd round which was presenting a business plan on skype. Since I do not want to get into financial sales. the interview process ended here.
Interview Question – Nothing to difficult, very general questions.
Example of Customer Service, working well with others? Answer Question
Reason for Declining – I did not want to get into financial sales. Plus have to do all the certifications and exams before you get paid.

A federal judge last week ratified a 10-year prison sentence that prosecutors worked out with a Greene County man who admitted involvement in a drug ring that sold large amounts of cocaine and marijuana throughout Alabama.
Benjamin Knox, 76, of Eutaw, was indicted in 2005 along with his two sons and others, but then spent about five years undergoing psychiatric evaluations and treatment to determine whether he was competent to stand trial. He will get credit for that time while serving his prison term.

15th Annual Fencing Tournament
Proves Chivalry is Not Dead at Marlboro
Experience the pageantry of the Renaissance with Marlboro College's 15th Annual Fencing Tournament on Sunday, December 4, at 1:30 p.m. in the Dining Hall. The fencing tournament, which was started in 1991 by Joshua Pendragon '95, embodies the true Renaissance spirit, complete with skilled fencers, serenading minstrels and merry spectators adorned in period costume. Following the sword play and duels, reigning royalty King Luis Batlle (professor of music) and Queen Geraldine Pittman de Batlle (professor of literature) will bequeath honors to the valiant tournament champions.
"The fencing tournament has a long and fun tradition at Marlboro," says Jodi Clark, fencing instructor, "Just the mere thought of students 'battling' each other is a fun concept."
Fencing was an unexpected draw for sophomore transfer student Elizabeth Holzhauser. "When I came here I thought, 'Oh, fencing! Fantastic!' and I really enjoyed it," says Holzhauser. "It feels really great to be a part of the fencing tradition at Marlboro, and it helps relieve stress from schoolwork!"
For more information, contact Jodi Clark, fencing instructor, for more information at firstname.lastname@example.com or (802)-258-9496. For cancellation information, please call the Events Hotline: (802) 451-7151.
Founded in 1946, Marlboro College offers undergraduate education in the liberal arts and, since 1997, graduate study focused on Internet technologies. Its 330 undergraduate students enjoy an 8:1 student-faculty ratio, a voice in governing the community and individualized courses of study on a 350-acre campus in the hills of southern Vermont. Marlboro has been selected as one of 40 Colleges that Change Lives. (http://www.marlboro.edu/news/promotional/change_lives.html).

Dow says its Gallery specialty herbicide is one of the few selective pre-emergence herbicides that prevent the growth of broadleaf weeds for up to eight months, demonstrating excellent plant tolerance on all established cool- and warm-season turfgrass.
Gallery can be used on more than 700 landscape ornamentals, groundcovers, perennials and non-crop areas. It can be applied in the spring or fall for season-long control, stopping weeds early to eliminate or reduce the need for post-emergence applications.
One application of Gallery will control 95 broadleaf weed species, including black medic, chickweed, clover, dandelion, oxalis and spurge.

Knife Skills: How to Prepare a Pumpkin for Carving
We have a new video and photo intern! Jessica Leibowitz of the blog My Camera Eats Food will be dropping by every week to shoot videos and photos for the site. Welcome Jessica!
This video is for you unlucky souls who never got to carve a real pumpkin as a kid (hello jack-o-lantern face stickers!), but are now too old to admit to their friends that they don't really know how it's done. Watch this video in the privacy of your own home, then head out to that pumpkin carving party with confidence!
Shopping and Storage
As far as shopping for and storing a pumpkin goes, there isn't much to say that hasn't already been said here and here in our guides to pumpkin carving. Here's the summary:
Look for pumpkins with:
- Firm, smooth skin
- At least one even face to make carving easier
- A green stem, not a brown or rotting one (and never lift it by the stem)
- A heavy feel for its size
- No bruises, soft spots, or lacerations on the skin—it will rot from those spots
If your carved pumpkin starts to shrivel, you can revive it by giving it a bath in ice water for an hour or so (a cooler or bathtub both work fine for this). Lightly spray the cut surface of your pumpkin with vegetable oil to prevent moisture loss.

How To Remove Stretch Marks
The removal of striae can be efficient if quality cream is utilized for this purpose. Stria are a common dermatological dilemma as they cause significant misery to those bearing them. This article is about how to remove stretch marks.
Many mechanisms can be used to achieve this outcome. This includes creams, natural dermatological skin care treatment, laser treatment or even surgery. Many persons have thus visited the dermatologists to cater for this need.
Striae are actually horizontal scars that affect a small layer of skin resulting from fast stretching of skin. This feature is common during pregnancy, thus the expectant women should be cautious. It is also common among obese persons due to the weight increase over time, during the pubertal growth spurts or other speedy weight additions. Body builders and weight lifters are also prone to them.
When they appear initially, the striae usually look like reddish or purple linear marks. They may lighten with age and even turn silver. These parts of the skin will appear empty and soft to the touch.
When one is looking for the appropriate treatments for these marks, they have to know that the skin has to be treated as three layers. The epidermis is the surface layer, the dermis is the middle one, while the subcutaneous stratum is the innermost one. This dermis helps skin maintain its shape. If the skin is stretched for a long time, this portion turns to elastic hence losing its support. This eventually causes dermal and epidermal tear, the phenomena called stria. Creams are available that are suited to treat this condition.
When one seeks answers on how to remove stretch marks, they are sure to encounter various options. The best technique is via the use of a guaranteed efficient cream meant for this purpose. It is best to consult the services of a surgeon or dermatologist to advice appropriately. A broad medical history inclusive of medications taken by the individual will enhance the decision given. This is because some drugs such as hormones and steroids lead to development of striae thus one must not withhold such information.
