Not sure if you've noticed before, but Hostelworld.com doesn't have any free pocket guides, podcasts or videos for South America. That is all going to change though.
My bosses here at HWHQ have been kind enough to send me on a six-week whirlwind trip of South America. First stop is Lima which is where I am now. I got here two days ago. Apologies on the delay with the blog posts.
I'm staying in Albergue Miraflores. It's a great hostel with a really homely feel to it. This is mainly due to Francis, the owner, who really goes out of his way to make sure you get the most out of your stay.
After a quick snooze after arriving (I got here at 7am after an 11.5 hour flight from Madrid), Francis took me around the city. We had a bite to eat and then checked out the National Archaeology Museum. Well worth visiting.
When we got back to the hostel I did some work, then put my head down for what I thought would've only been thirty minutes. That was at 7.30pm. I awoke after 10.5 hours at 6am the next day...bright eyed and bushy tailed for the next day. But more about that later...
In our hostelworld.com travel blog we bring you all the latest company news and information on new additions to the site including podcasts, videos and more. You'll also get inside information on a variety of destinations across the globe as they're visited by our travel editor and writers.

Fresh fruit is a healthy way to treat your palette with lively snacks, side dishes, desserts and meals. For these recipes, choose fresh fruit or fresh-frozen fruit, which has been quickly frozen at the peak of freshness.
Starting off this visual tour is a side dish of grilled fresh fruit slices. Cut fresh fruit, such as apples, pears or peaches, into wedges or cubes. Brush the fruit lightly with canola oil and sprinkle with cinnamon. Place the fruit on skewers (soak wood skewers in water at least 10 minutes first) or wrap in foil. Grill on low heat for 3 to 5 minutes, then enjoy. Here, thawed frozen peaches were added to fresh apples, pears, peaches and plums.

Hi folks,
Here's the sitch. I have a series of triangles along a curved path in Illustrator CS6 (mac, if that makes a difference). I want to make the triangles large as the approach the middle of the path, and smaller towards the ends. The triangles' lower-most corner must remain locked to the path. I've tried pattern brushes, but not only do they distort the triangles, but there's also no way to scale the triangles reliably (to my knowledge). Any ideas?
Many thanks in advance,
You don't have to have two separate paths. You can create a single Blend from three triangles (small, large, small).
That's right. Thanks for the correction Jet
Last time I was making blends like this I had to mirror an odd shape that flips in the middle without transition and I had to cut the path in three parts with a small segment in the middle without a blend but in this case cutting is not needed. Blends can be made between any number shapes.
Nice Thanks guys, I apparently missed this tool somehow :/ Probably would have been useful before this!
Is there any way to lock the triangles' lower-most corner to the path, rather than using the central registration point?
If I understand it in the right way, you need to do (at least) five things (more than has been expressly mentioned already):
1) In Blend options, set Align to Path (to (at least more) corrctly follow the direction of the path),
2) For each blend stop, create two rectangles pointing the same way with the crucial corner coinciding, one of them being nofill/nostroke, and Group them (to have that corner centred in the blend),
3) Create the blend with the desired number of rectangles (sets), then Expand and Distribute the triangles (sets) evenly or however you want them (presuming you do not wish to have the larger ones closer than the smaller ones or maybe even overlapping), then create a fake 1 step blend (in order to have a (fake) blend to distribute, no need to worry the surplus will go away in 5),
4) Add Anchor Points (enough times to keep the evenness of the distribution, you will know if there are (not) enough),
5) After replacing the spine, Expand and delete the fake steps, thus ending with the desired number of triangles (you may delete the nofill/nostroke ones).

Bill will reduce pollution, support smart growth and agricultural preservation
ANNAPOLIS, MD (February 11, 2011) – Governor Martin O'Malley will join legislative sponsors of a proposal to ban septic systems in major new developments Monday, an initiative he supported during last week's State of the State address. The bill, sponsored by Delegate Stephen Lafferty and Senator Paul Pinsky, will require that major new subdivisions include technology to treat sewage waste before it is discharged. The bill will also promote smart growth and agricultural preservation.
Governor O'Malley will also join Kim Coble, Maryland Executive Director of the Chesapeake Bay Foundation.
Septic systems prevent bacteria from entering waterways or ground water, but do nothing to reduce nitrogen pollution, one of the most significant problems facing the Chesapeake Bay. Modern technologies, with a permit from the Maryland Department of the Environment, can be utilized to reduce pollution from these developments.
WHAT: Governor O'Malley to join legislators to introduce septic system proposal
WHEN: MONDAY, February 13, 2011 at 4:30 p.m.
WHERE: Maryland State House
Governor's Reception Room

School officials say Common Core puts 'why' back into learning9:03 am | July 8, 2013
Although students and teachers don't always see eye-to-eye on every issue, when the new school year begins in Carter County, both will take their first steps into a new era of education.
On Aug. 12, the Carter County Schools system will open under the auspices of Tennessee's adaptation of the Common Core State Standard Initiative.
While it has received its share of criticism from members of government, business, education, and the general public, for CCS reading coach Brooke Shanks, the initiative will perform a basic, yet integral, function.
"It puts the 'why' back in education," Shanks said. "With the old curriculum, we took the 'why' out. When kids would ask why, (the answer) would be, 'Because that's just the way it is.' (Common Core) gives the kids a chance to go deeper into the understanding."
Eric Glover, associate professor of Educational Leadership and Policy Analysis at East Tennessee State University, expanded on this idea, saying that the Common Core initiative represents a shift, not in the information that is taught, but in the method by which that information is taught.
"The previous focus on standards was memorization," Glover said. "Common Core gets away from that and gets to higher-order thinking and skills."

Investigation performed at the Department of Orthopaedic Surgery, Federal University of São Paulo, São Paulo, Brazil, and the Centre for Sports and Exercise Medicine, Queen Mary University of London, London, England
When nonsurgical treatment of a Morton neuroma is unsuccessful, neurectomy is indicated. The purpose of the present retrospective study was to evaluate the long-term outcomes, complications, and adverse events following a distal plantar transverse incision for the excision of an intermetatarsal neuroma.
We conducted a retrospective review of 168 consecutive patients who underwent surgical excision of a Morton neuroma that had been unresponsive to nonsurgical treatment. The clinical diagnosis was confirmed by means of magnetic resonance imaging and histological analysis. All patients underwent excision of the neuroma through a distal transverse plantar approach; concomitant foot and ankle disorders were also treated. Postoperatively, a three-grade patient satisfaction scale was administered to assess the results of the procedure and a clinical examination was performed for all patients.
One hundred and sixty patients (204 feet, 227 neuromas) were assessed at a median of 7.1 ± 3.9 years (range, one to twenty-one years) postoperatively. A good result was reported for 143 patients (89.4%); a fair result, for eleven (6.9%); and a poor result, for six (3.8%). The eleven patients with a fair result reported scar-related symptoms such as skin hardening, loss of sensation at the incision site, discomfort wearing shoes with high heels, and local paresthesias with no recurrence of the neuroma. The six patients with a poor result reported pain and paresthesias, and the recurrence of a neuroma was confirmed at the time of reoperation.
Producing a marked reduction in pain and high overall patient satisfaction, a distal transverse plantar incision is comparable with other surgical approaches for the surgical treatment of a Morton neuroma.
Therapeutic Level IV. See Instructions for Authors for a complete description of levels of evidence.
Photograph of a foot demonstrating the location of the transverse plantar incision, located distal to the metatarsal head weight-bearing area. The numbers 0, 1, 2, and 3 indicate the length of the incision (in centimeters).
Photograph showing the exposure of the digital nerves. The arrow indicates the neuroma that will be resected.

Shit, I'm totally dropping the ball on this one. Critical Mass happens TODAY, March 29th at 6pm. The meeting spot is the usual West Mall on UT Campus (near 24th and Guadalupe), but as many of ya'll have noticed the time changed several months ago to 6pm, to allow for more people to actually make the rides.
They've been picking up as of late, probably pulling 50-80 people, a far cry from the several hundred of its' heyday but a damn sight better than the half dozen die-hards that have been keeping the ride alive through thick and thin. Want to see what the new Critical Mass is about? Then get your ass down there in about an hour and a half.

TMCSuperTech 2008
Annual technician competition is growing by leaps and bounds. "Web Extra!"
"If you look at the 14 skills stations we have, it's a pretty good cross-section of everything a technician is going to have to work on," he says. "We're covering the major vehicle systems and the most current information. When a guy comes to this competition, he's going to go back to his shop to talk about the experience and the parts that challenged him, and the company is going to benefit from this guy wanting to improve. I've seen some of these competitors now for three or four years, and a lot of them have improved their work methods and the way they go about things, just because of some of the things they've been exposed to. It's had a positive effect all the way around."
Arrants says he is pleased to see fleet managers starting to use the competition as designed--to determine the strengths and areas in need of improvements in their training programs; especially the fleets that bring a large number of technicians.
"When they leave, all of the technicians have their scores on the workstations, so a good fleet manager or training director is going to review those scores and find out if there is a consistency with their techs in an area we're testing, and if there is an area of improvement that they focus their training on next year, and not utilize valuable training dollars training on an area they all did well on," he says. "Since we make sure that the skill sets that we test the technicians on are skill sets they would utilize every day in their job, if they scored low in that area, then they know they need to focus some attention, if they wanted to come back next year, on those areas."
Do you need to justify some money for technician training? Arrants says TMCSuperTech is the ticket.
"What better way than (using) the scores from the SuperTech competition for them to go back and say, 'Hey, this is what I need and here's why--I had 10 technicians, and nine of the 10 did terrible here and they're the cream of our crop,'" he says. "It can also help them utilize their training dollars to be more cost-effective or if they're trying to increase their budget for training, SuperTech justifies it by showing where the improvements need to be and also how they stack up with some of their competitors. The one benefit that some companies are not utilizing or are not aware of, is the benefit that we provide them on strengths and area of improvements in all these difference areas. That's huge."
Arrants says competing in SuperTech can also help fleets attract and retain their best technicians.
"It's also a reward for a job well done--to show these folks that they think enough of the job that they do to send them on to this competition and take them out of the shop for three days and pay their way," he says. "You talk to all the techs, and they are tickled pink to be there, and they're very happy that their employers have made that investment in them, and they want to do a good job for their bosses. It builds camaraderie between the employer and the employee--it fosters that loyalty, which is very important these days. They're all on the same team and working together. It does a lot for the technician's self-esteem, to know that their employer is willing to invest in them to come to this thing. And within the company, it stirs the competition so that other techs now want to be able to get involved in SuperTech."
A key component to the competition is the amount of vehicles and equipment that a variety of companies bring, some from a significant distance. For the past three years, Phoenix, AZ-based Swift Transportation has supplied trucks and management personnel to mentor the technicians and participate in the educational panels. This year the company brought along a half-dozen EPA SmartWay-Certified "green" trucks to the event--both to help the event and to support the SmartWay program--but it is what the group brought back that was particularly special.
Michele Calbi, Swift Transportation vice-president of procurement and shop operations, says having technician Phillip Mellor win one of the stations was just icing on the cake.
"Technicians have a difficult job in that they must keep up-to-date on the latest, ever-changing technical advancements that the tractor and trailer manufacturers introduce year after year; especially in the diesel engine arena... and we are very proud of Phillip's accomplishment," she says. "And, of course, technicians feel that if one member of the Swift team can win, it is truly possible for them to win as well."
Calbi says there is no greater venue to support technician knowledge and experience than TMCSuperTech.

POTUS v. SCOTUS
It has become evident that President Obama has a history of disrespecting the SCOTUS. After yesterday's joint press conference, Obama brought into play an issue which he described as "conservative concerns about judicial activism." He uses the phrase as an intimidation tactic in order to ensure the Supreme Court will rule in favor of the health care overhaul. If not, he calls it "judicial activism" and credits Conservatives who have been unhappy when SCOTUS rules were not in their favor.
"I'm confident the Supreme Court will not take what would be an unprecedented extraordinary step of overturning a law that was passed by a strong majority of a democratically elected congress." Sure Mr. President, but that majority consisted of primarily Democrats before what Sean refers to as 'the Conservative victory' of 2010 at which point the House of Representatives went from being controlled by Democrats, to a Republican majority.
So, a Supreme Court decision that President Obama disapproves of is 'activist' but what he does approve of are 'constitutional?' "I just remind conservative commentators that for years what we heard is the biggest problem on the bench was judicial activism or a lack of judicial restraint. Unelected group of people would somehow overturn a dually constituted and passed law."
Speaking of 'judicial activism,' let us not forget that President Obama has had the pleasure of electing two judges to the Supreme Court, one of which, Justice Sotomayor, was an integral part of drafting Obamacare. Justice Sotomayor refuses to remove herself from the pending Supreme Court healthcare mandate decision, and Obama has not asked her to, despite her undoubtedly bias views.
Not only that, but did our President forget about the purpose of the three branches of government? He is the Executive branch; he signed Obamacare…now it is time for the judicial branch to assess its constitutionality.
This little rift, however, is not the first time our President has been disrespectful to our nation's highest court. Two years ago during his State of the Union Address, Obama again insulted our Supreme Court in a reference to the Citizens United Campaign Finance decision. "The supreme court reversed a century of law that I believe will open the floodgates for special interests," he said. Justice Alito was clearly seen shaking his head in dissent and disbelief, mouthing 'that's not true.'
**ADDED BREAKING NEWS: At roughly 4:30pm News broke that a federal court of appeals is "ordering the Justice Department to answer by Thursday whether the Obama Administration believes that the courts have the right to strike down a federal law."
-A 3 panel (all Republican) US Court of Appeals Judges for the 5th Circuit are coming back swinging after Obama's comments yesterday (discussed above).
CBS News reports that the three-judge appellate court is responding to the comment that overturning the law would be "unprecedented" because "the Supreme Court since 1803 has asserted the power to strike down laws it interprets as unconstitutional. The three-judge appellate court appears to be asking the administration to admit that basic premise…The panel ordered the Justice Department to submit a three-page, single-spaced letter by noon Thursday addressing whether the Executive Branch believes courts have such power, the lawyer said."
Looks like President Obama and Eric Holder have a busy few days ahead of them as they figure out how to respond.

coal - report card
Our nation relies on clean water. We need it to drink, to grow our crops, and supply our food. Many of us depend on it for the things we enjoy most: swimming, boating, duck hunting, paddling, and fishing. However, in the 112th Congress we have seen an unprecedented attack from U.S. House of Representatives Leadership on clean water. The House has voted for endangering the drinking water sources of 117 million Americans, allowing the direct discharge of pesticides into our waterways without permits and stopping strong safeguards on coal ash and mountaintop removal pollution -- just to name a few.
These "report cards" contain information about specific water legislation voted on by the U.S. House of Representatives from January 2011 to October 2012. Based on how members voted on critical water legislation, the Sierra Club ranked each member of the House with a grading system of A+, A, B, C, D, F. Each member of the House has a report card describing their votes on clean water. These grades are complied and used by the Federal Policy Team in the Sierra Club's Washington DC office to guide our lobbying efforts.
You can also view detailed information on each vote used in the Clean Water Report Card, as well as the raw data on congressional votes. (Both files are PDFs)
Find out how your member of the House of Representative voted on critical water legislation in the 112th Congress.
Simply click on your state to see how all the members in your state voted on water legislation. You will need Adobe's Acrobat Reader (free download) to view these PDF files.
If you do not know your specific member of Congress, you can look them up by your zip code.

"To maintain our edge . . . we've got to protect our rigorous peer review system and ensure that we only fund proposals that promise the biggest bang for taxpayer dollars . . . that's what's going to maintain our standards of scientific excellence for years to come."
The core values of peer review drive the NIH to seek the highest level of ethical standards, and form the foundation for the laws, regulations, and policies that govern the NIH peer review process. The NIH dual peer review system is mandated by statute in accordance with section 492 of the Public Health Service Act and federal regulations governing "Scientific Peer Review of Research Grant Applications and Research and Development Contract Projects" (42 CFR Part 52h). NIH policy is intended to promote a process whereby grant applications submitted to the NIH are evaluated on the basis of a process that is fair, equitable, timely, and free of bias.
The first level of review is carried out by a Scientific Review Group (SRG) composed primarily of non-federal scientists who have expertise in relevant scientific disciplines and current research areas. The second level of review is performed by Institute and Center (IC) National Advisory Councils or Boards. Councils are composed of both scientific and public representatives chosen for their expertise, interest, or activity in matters related to health and disease. Only applications that are recommended for approval by both the SRG and the Advisory Council may be recommended for funding. Final funding decisions are made by the IC Directors.
For more information see NIH Peer Review (PDF)
Back to Top
Initial peer review meetings are administered by either the Center for Scientific Review (CSR) or another NIH IC. The focus of review is specified in the Funding Opportunity Announcement. Peer review meetings are announced in the Federal Register. The meetings are closed to the public, although some meetings may have an open session; the Federal Register provides the details of each meeting.
A. Peer Review Roles and Meeting Overview
Scientific Review Officer:
Each SRG is led by a Scientific Review Officer (SRO). The SRO is an extramural staff scientist and the Designated Federal Official responsible for ensuring that each application receives an objective and fair initial peer review, and that all applicable laws, regulations, and policies are followed.
SRG Members
Other NIH Staff
Peer Review Meeting Procedures
B. Peer Review Criteria and Considerations
Review Criteria for Research Grants and Cooperative Agreements
The mission of the NIH is to support science in pursuit of knowledge about the biology and behavior of living systems and to apply that knowledge to extend healthy life and reduce illness and disability. As part of this mission, applications submitted to the NIH for grants or cooperative agreements to support biomedical and behavioral research are evaluated for scientific and technical merit through the NIH peer review system.
Overall Impact. Reviewers will provide an overall impact/priority score to reflect their assessment of the likelihood for the project to exert a sustained, powerful influence on the research field(s) involved, in consideration of the following review criteria, and additional review criteria (as applicable for the project proposed).
Scored Review Criteria. Reviewers will consider each of the review criteria below in the determination of scientific and technical merit, and give a separate score for each. An application does not need to be strong in all categories to be judged likely to have major scientific impact. For example, a project that by its nature is not innovative may be essential to advance a field.
Significance. Does the project address an important problem or a critical barrier to progress in the field? If the aims of the project are achieved, how will scientific knowledge, technical capability, and/or clinical practice be improved? How will successful completion of the aims change the concepts, methods, technologies, treatments, services, or preventative interventions that drive this field?
Investigator(s). Are the PD/PIs, collaborators, and other researchers well suited to the project? If Early Stage Investigators or New Investigators, or in the early stages of independent careers, do they have appropriate experience and training? If established, have they demonstrated an ongoing record of accomplishments that have advanced their field(s)? If the project is collaborative or multi-PD/PI, do the investigators have complementary and integrated expertise; are their leadership approach, governance and organizational structure appropriate for the project?
Innovation. Does the application challenge and seek to shift current research or clinical practice paradigms by utilizing novel theoretical concepts, approaches or methodologies, instrumentation, or interventions? Are the concepts, approaches or methodologies, instrumentation, or interventions novel to one field of research or novel in a broad sense? Is a refinement, improvement, or new application of theoretical concepts, approaches or methodologies, instrumentation, or interventions proposed?
Approach. Are the overall strategy, methodology, and analyses well-reasoned and appropriate to accomplish the specific aims of the project? Are potential problems, alternative strategies, and benchmarks for success presented? If the project is in the early stages of development, will the strategy establish feasibility and will particularly risky aspects be managed?
If the project involves clinical research, are the plans for 1) protection of human subjects from research risks, and 2) inclusion of minorities and members of both sexes/genders, as well as the inclusion of children, justified in terms of the scientific goals and research strategy proposed?
Environment. Will the scientific environment in which the work will be done contribute to the probability of success? Are the institutional support, equipment and other physical resources available to the investigators adequate for the project proposed? Will the project benefit from unique features of the scientific environment, subject populations, or collaborative arrangements?
Additional Review Criteria. As applicable for the project proposed, reviewers will evaluate the following additional items while determining scientific and technical merit and in providing an overall impact/priority score, but will not give separate scores for these items.
Protections for Human Subjects
Inclusion of Women, Minorities, and Children
Vertebrate Animals
Additional Review Considerations. As applicable for the project proposed, reviewers will consider each of the following items, but will not give scores for these items and should not consider them in providing an overall impact/priority score.
Applications from Foreign Organizations
Select Agent
Resource Sharing Plans
Budget and Period Support
C. Scoring
The NIH utilizes a 9-point rating scale (1 = exceptional; 9 = poor) for all applications; the same scale is used for overall impact scores and for criterion scores. (NOT-OD-09-024)
Before the SRG meeting, each reviewer and discussant assigned to an application gives a separate score for each of (at least) five review criteria (i.e., Significance, Investigator(s), Innovation, Approach, and Environment for research grants and cooperative agreements; see above). For all applications the individual scores of the assigned reviewers and discussant(s) for these criteria are reported to the applicant.
In addition, each reviewer and discussant assigned to an application gives a preliminary overall impact score for that application. The preliminary scores are used to determine which applications will be discussed in full at the meeting. For each application that is discussed at the meeting, a final impact score is given by each eligible committee member (without conflicts of interest) including the assigned reviewers. Each member's score reflects his/her evaluation of the overall impact that the project is likely to have on the research field(s) involved, rather than being a calculation of the reviewer's scores for each criterion.
The final overall impact score for each discussed application is determined by calculating the mean score from all the eligible members' impact scores, and multiplying the average by 10; the final overall impact score is reported on the summary statement. Thus, the final overall impact scores range from 10 (high impact) through 90 (low impact). Numerical impact scores are not reported for applications that are not discussed (ND), which may be reported as ++ on the face page of the summary statement and typically rank in the bottom half of the applications.
Applicants just receiving their scores or summary statements, should consult our What's Next page for detailed guidance. Applicants seeking advice beyond that available online may want to contact the NIH Program Officer listed at the top of the summary statement.
An application may be designated Not Recommended for Further Consideration (NRFC) by the Scientific Review Group if it lacks significant and substantial merit; presents serious ethical problems in the protection of human subjects from research risks; or presents serious ethical problems in the use of vertebrate animals, biohazards, and/or select agents. Applications designated as NRFC do not proceed to the second level of peer review (National Advisory Council/Board) because they cannot be funded.
D. Summary Statement
Applications that are not discussed at the meeting will be given the designation "ND" as an overall impact score, but the applicant, as well as NIH staff, will see the scores from the assigned reviewers and discussants for each of the scored review criteria as additional feedback on their summary statement.
Understanding the Percentile
NIH established a peer review appeal system (see NOT-OD-11-064) to provide investigators and applicant organizations the opportunity to seek reconsideration of the initial review results if, after consideration of the summary statement, they believe the review process was flawed as outlined below. This policy does not apply to appeals of the technical evaluation of R&D contract projects through the NIH peer review process, appeals of NIH funding decisions, or appeals of decisions concerning extensions of MERIT award.
An appeal is a written communication from a Project Director/Principal Investigator (PD/PI) and/or official of the applicant institution that is received after issuance of the summary statement and up to 30 calendar days after the second level of peer review, and describes a flaw in the review process for a particular application. It must display concurrence of the Authorized Organization Representative (AOR). An appeal letter will be accepted only if the letter 1) describes a flaw(s) or perceived flaw(s) in the review process for the application in question, 2) explains the reasons for the appeal, and 3) is based on one or more of the following issues related to the process of the initial peer review:
Appeal letters based solely on differences of scientific opinion will not be accepted. A letter that does not meet these criteria and/or does not include the concurrence of the AOR will not be considered an appeal, but rather a grievance. The IC will handle grievances according to IC-specific procedures.
The IC cannot deny the PD/PI and/or the applicant institution the opportunity to have an appeal letter made available to Council, but the IC may determine which appeal letters warrant discussion by the Council members, and Council members may raise certain ones for discussion if they so choose. The Council may concur:
Who Reviews the Application?
The Advisory Council/Board of the potential awarding IC performs the second level of review. Advisory Councils/Boards are composed of scientists from the extramural research community and public representatives ( NIH Federal Advisory Committee Information ). Members are chosen by the respective IC and are approved by the Department of Health and Human Services. For certain committees, members are appointed by the President of the United States.
Recommendation Process
Not Funded - Next Steps?
The NIH receives thousands of applications for each application receipt round. Funding on the first attempt is difficult, but not impossible. If an application does not result in funding, there may be an opportunity to respond to the reviewers' comments and resubmit the application. Applicants just receiving their summary statements, should consult our Next Steps page for detailed guidance. Applicants seeking advice beyond that available online may want to contact the NIH Program Officer listed at the top of the summary statement.

Finally, a spring field trial!
For the first time since 2012, the Minnesota Grouse Dog Association (MGDA) held a spring field trial last weekend. Due to still unbelievably wet courses and iffy conditions, the trial was shortened from three days to two.
And the weather still wouldn't cooperate. Saturday and Sunday weren't the best of days to be in the woods running bird dogs—temperatures hung in the 30s and 40s and the wind howled—but plucky field trial competitors entered dogs, slogged through muddy courses and had a good time.
Jerry uncovered two amazing statistics. More than half the dogs that competed (19 of 35 dogs—54%) trace back to our Blue Silk either through her sons, Blue Shaquille and Northwoods Blue Ox (Oscar), or daughters CH I'm Blue Gert, CH Satin From Silk (Peggy) and Northwoods Blue Babe (Mikki).
Multiple grouse champion Houston's Belle, owned by Paul Hauge, also left an incredible mark on setters in our region. Through her daughters, Houston's Belle's Choice (Jill) and Snyder's Liz, 37% of dogs entered are out of Belle.
Open Shooting Dog
1st Lucy, owned and handled by Rod Lein
2nd Northwoods Parmigiano (Sean), owned by Paul Hauge, handled by Jerry
3rd Lola, owned and handled by Scott Anderson
Open Derby
1st Luna, owned and handled by Brett Edstrom
2nd Northwoods Rob Roy, owned by Chris Bye & Roberta Scherf, handled by Chris
3rd Axel, owned by Ryan Flair, handled by Jerry
Open Puppy
1st Northwoods Rolls Royce, handled by Jerry
2nd Lake Effect Tilly, owned and handled by Tim Kaufmann
3rd Northwoods Troy McClure, owned by Dale Robinson, handled by Jerry
Our sincere thanks to MGDA officials Gregg Gress, Dave Moore, Rochel Moore, Scott Anderson and Brett Edstrom for putting on the trial. It takes hours of planning, coordination and lots of plain hard work and we're grateful for their efforts.
Congratulations to the winners!

Passion, Pain, && Pleasure: The Show
Starring: Trey Songz
Ciara: Mimi, I know youre not bringing me over here to say that youre leaving?
Mimi: *tears swell up in her eye, as she fans her face to stop herself from crying* Its not that I don't love him, its that I see the love that he has for you and Ashley and its not the same between him and I. I'd rather him be with somebody that he has more feelings for
Ciara: *sitting up to the edge of the couch* listen to yourself...you don't make sense. If Trey didn't want you to be here, than you wouldn't be here. so, if youre willing to leave that is your decision, it has nothing to do with him
Ciara had really heard enough, she couldnt believe that Mimi would hurt Trey like that. She got up and walked towards the exit of the room.
Ciara: *heading towards the door, stopping in the doorway, looking back to speak* I dont know how youre going to tell Trey this, but he dont need this right now. Think about what I said before you make your decision ..

You should file a complaint with the U.S. Department of Labor, Veterans Employment and Training Service.
The Veterans Employment Opportunities Act of 1998 (VEOA), 5 U.S.C. § 3330 et seq., provides an avenue of administrative redress specifically for a preference eligible who alleges that a federal agency violated such individual's rights under any statute or regulation relating to a veteran's preference eligible.
Under VEOA, in order to seek corrective action, a preference eligible is to file a written complaint with the U.S. Department of Labor, Veterans Employment and Training Service (VETS), within 60 days of the alleged violation. VEOA requires the Secretary of Labor, through VETS, to investigate the complaint and, upon determining that a violation occurred, to attempt to resolve the complaint by making reasonable efforts to ensure that the agency complies with the statute or regulation relating to veterans' preference. If the Secretary is unable to resolve a complaint within 60 days, the Secretary is to provide notification of an unsuccessful effort to resolve the complaint to the complainant.
In light of VEOA, OSC does not investigate allegations of violations of veterans' preference rights for corrective action purposes. (We still investigate such allegations for possible disciplinary action, however.) Thus, you should file a complaint alleging a violation of a veterans' preference right with VETS, not OSC, unless you are seeking disciplinary action against the employee who allegedly violated your rights.
Additional Information about VETS can be found at http://www.dol.gov/vets.

love the color, love the material. only thing is that i live in AZ. when it gets hot, pavement, sidewalk, u can feel the heat. Otherwise love the lightweight feeling. overall love my shoes. only had them for a month and i wear them daily.
I love these shoes. They're looking good, comfortable and kept my feet dry in rain...
Sarah Thillmann
Der Schuh ist echt geil, nur die Farben auf dem Bild wirken wie schwarz, beige, cremefarben, weiß und in echt ist aber etwas grün, rot, blau dabei, also etwas bunt. :D
Trotzdem super!
Louise Thomas
bought this shoe so you guys would plant a tree. save the environment = ]
love these shoes!
Chance Gordon
My new favorite pair of shoes! I Love them! I want to buy more pairs of them! I love etnies!!
Evelyn M. Crowley
I am well pleased with my shoes. They are very stylish and comforable. I would only have one suggestion for my light grey shoes. I would love grey shoes laces.
I am amazed that they fit so well when I never tried them first. You have a wonderful product and also what I like is that they are very reasonably priced. Thank you.
The shoe is about the same width as a regular sneaker so I think it'll last a lot longer than Toms and it lot more structural support. The color goes with a lot of others so I'm wearing them a lot and the color isn't fading too fast and the shoe looks good with a little dirt on it. The texture/pattern of the fabric is cool too. The fit is the same as my Toms, but I'm not sure how consistant the sizing with etnies are since this is my first pair.

My iPod icon on my iPhone recently popped up as a question mark icon. Upon launch the program quickly exits.
My first thought would be to re-install through itunes but im afraid thats not possible on a hacked device.
Anyone know where I can download the iPod app so I can install it through ssh?
Thanks very much

While your fearless leader continues his transition to being a Kentucky resident once again, here's a reminder of why this blog is such a fan of Blake ****ing Griffin.

text: Six "Makeup" Tips For Your Lil Beauty by POPSUGAR Moms 4/15/09 2 Reactions 0 Shares Print 0 0 0 0 0 Girls will be girls. Whether you feel fine letting your daughter indulge in a mani-pedi from time to time or would rather her keep her young skin fresh and product-free, at some point you may have to just give in. Maybe it's Miley, maybe she's watched you apply mascara and lipstick before a dinner date, or maybe girly girls just love gloss. Most of us try to keep the cosmetic rituals out of our children's daily routine (well, unless you are a pageant parent), but there are ways to let them indulge the urge without overdoing. Check out these sensible suggestions for healthy, no-mess ways to help your budding beautician experiment with the idea of makeup. It's Never Too Soon For a Good Hair Day What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 If your little Rapunzel likes watching you let down your hair and go through your rushed routine (you know, the five-second blow-dry!), dress up her locks with simple jewels like these sparkly snap clips from Gymboree (pack for $7). 1 / 6 Pucker Up! What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 Little girls seem to love lip gloss and lip balm. Let her try a lightly tinted and flavored tube like cool mint Badger Cocoa Butter Balm ($5), iconic Smith's rosebud salve, or Born Lippy Strawberry Balm ($8) from the Body Shop. 2 / 6 Teach Sunscreen Use Early! What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 If you only impart one beauty secret on your child, make it daily sunscreen use! I like California Baby SPF 30 ($21). If you have trouble sitting your tot down for sunscreen application, let her use a stick on herself and then rub in the excess. If your little darling watches you apply moisturizer and wants to use your fancy stuff, get her a bottle of the mild California Baby Super Sensitive Everyday Lotion ($12). 3 / 6 Hello Kitty, You Are So Pretty What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 Before Hello Kitty went MAC, it mostly targeted underage beauty queens. The good news is sets like this Hello Kitty Puff set offer airy "makeup" that's heavy on the glittery packaging, but mostly looks like clear gloss when it's applied. Ultimately, your little makeup artist will pretend she's putting on makeup, but her teacher won't be able to see it. 4 / 6 Step Up to the Mirror What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 If your tot is too short to see herself in the mirror when brushing her teeth or combing her hair, pick her up a stool like this Madame Alexander Storage Stool ($70). Hair or toothbrush time provides a nice opportunity to look in the mirror, but reflect on less superficial attributes such as her strong teeth, healthy skin, and how much she looks like daddy. 6 / 6 If You Must, Go Water-Based What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 When Suri Cruise was just 2, she was spotted out and about with some fancy finger paint. While the blue-eyed brunette is quite the uptown girl and we wouldn't be surprised if she had her own manicurist, any lil lady can get this celebaby look with a bit of help from her mama. Stick to a toxin-free polish, as tots put their fingers in their mouths, and a thin brush is best when coating tiny nails. Suncoat Products makes a line of water-based, organic, and eco-friendly polishes ($9) that are quick drying and long lasting. The polish is available in 32 fun colors from mango to apple green and berry to peacock blue, so your daughter is sure to find her perfect shade.
