Navy's Last Trip to San Francisco …
Navy 34, New Mexico 19 Dec. 30, 2004 | San Francisco, Calif.
• Aaron Polanco accounted for four touchdowns and 237 yards of total offense as Navy defeated New Mexico, 34-19, in the 2004 Emerald Bowl. The victory gave the Midshipmen a school-record tying 10 wins for the season and marked just the fifth bowl victory in school history.
• After the Lobos took a 7-0 lead on the first possesion of the game, the Mids answered with a touchdown drive of their own, moving 80 yards on just seven plays. Polanco scored from 14 yards out to tie the game at seven.
• The game turned on the ensuing possession when safety Vaughn Kelley hit New Mexico's DonTrell Moore just as he was catching a pitch. The hit caused a fumble that was recovered by Lane Jackson and knocked Moore out of the game.
• Navy quickly took advantage of the turnover, as Polanco scored from one yard out five plays later to give Navy a 14-7 lead. The touchdown was set up by a third-and-eight pass from slot back Frank Divis to Polanco for 17 yards
• Josh Smith stopped New Mexico's next drive with an interception and the Mids made the Lobos pay dearly, as Polanco hit wide receiver Corey Dryden on the second play from scrimmage with a 61-yard touchdown pass to make the score 21-7.
• After the two teams punted on their initial possessions of the third quarter, Polanco ran for his third touchdown of the day, this one from 27 yards out, to make the score 31-19.
• New Mexico, however, marched right back down the field. The Lobos had the ball first-and-goal at the Navy six, but on fourth-and-goal from the one Lobo running back D.D. Cox was stopped short of the goal line by Kelley and Bobby McClarin.
• The Navy offense would take over the game from there, mounting an epic 26-play, 94-yard, 14:26 drive that was capped off by a Geoff Blumenfeld 22-yard field goal to make the score 34-19. The 26 plays and 14:26 time of possession were both NCAA records for a single drive.
Fourth Quarter Rally Leads Navy To 11th Straight Win Over Army
• Freshman quarterback Keenan Reynolds extended Navy's dominance against Army, scoring the winning touchdown late in the fourth quarter in a 17-13 victory in the 113th playing of America's Game.
• Navy captured its 11th consecutive victory over Army and in doing so won the Commander-in-Chief's Trophy which is awarded to the team with the best record in games among the three service academies. Army and Navy each beat Air Force, putting the prestigious trophy up for grabs in the regular-season finale for the first time since 2005.
• In front of 69,607 fans and Vice President Joe Biden at Lincoln Financial Field, Navy caught a break when Army missed a late field goal attempt.
• Reynolds quickly found Brandon Turner down the sideline for a 49-yard gain. Reynolds then escaped a rush and followed with the eight-yard touchdown run with 4:41 left in the game.
• Unlike previous games over the last decade, the Black Knights were in this one until the final drive. Army had driven to the Navy 14 when fullback Larry Dixon fumbled on a sloppy exchange with quarterback Trent Steelman. Junior nose guard Barry Dabney recovered the fumble and the Mids' sideline went wild as the CIC trophy was coming back to the Naval Academy for a record 13th time after a two-year stint at Air Force. Before Navy started its 11-game winning streak, the longest winning streak in a series that started in 1890 was only five games by either team.
• Late in the third quarter, Army's James Kelly stripped the ball from Reynolds and linebacker Alex Meier recovered to give the Black Knights the ball at Navy's 37. Eric Osteen kicked a 21-yard field goal 10 plays later for a 13-10 lead.
• Osteen, however, was wide left on a 37-yard attempt with 6:57 left in the game.
• Navy made them pay on Reynolds' score. The Midshipmen now lead the series 57-49-7
• After a scoreless first quarter, Army and Navy swapped rushing TDs in the second. Navy fullback Noah Copeland plowed straight up the middle for a 12-yard score. Trent Steelman matched him with an 11-yarder for his program-tying 17th TD run of the season, then saluted the cadets after the score.
• Freshman kicker Nick Sloan put Navy up 10-7 with a 31-yard field goal late in the second, but Army answered when Osteen's 41-yarder as the first half expired hit the upright and bounced in to tie the game at 10.
• Reynolds was named the Philadelphia Sportswriters Most Valuable Player, rushing for 43 yards and a touchdown and completing 10 of his 17 passes for 130 yards. Sophomore fullback Noah Copeland rushed for 99 yards and a touchdown on 22 carries, while senior slot back Gee Gee Greene caught three passes for 23 yards.
• Junior linebacker Cody Peterson led the Navy defense with a career-high 14 tackles, while senior outside linebacker Keegan Wetzel recorded 11 tackles, 1.5 tackles for a loss and one sack. Senior Matt Warrick was also in on 11 stops, while sophomore outside linebacker Josh Tate, senior linebacker John Michael Nurthen and Dabney all recovered fumbles.
Senior Salute
• Navy's 28 seniors have compiled a 32-19 record (.627), qualified for three bowl games, won a bowl game (2009 Texas Bowl against Missouri) and won the Commander-In-Chief's Trophy twice in their four years. The seniors were 4-0 against their biggest rival, Army, and 6-2 in Service Academy games (2-2 against Air Force).

Navy Quick Hitters
• Since 2003, Navy has won 19 games against schools from a BCS conference. The 19 wins against BCS schools during that time period, which have come against 10 different teams, are the most in the country by a non-BCS school.
• Navy has played six bowl eligible teams this year (counting Penn State, which is not going to a bowl due to NCAA sanctions) and compiled a 3-3 record against the six programs. The Mids defeated Air Force (6-6), Central Michigan (6-6) and East Carolina (8-4) and lost to Notre Dame (12-0), Penn State (8-4) and San Jose State (10-2).
• Navy head football coach Ken Niumatalolo is just the third coach in school history to start his coaching career at Navy with a 5-0 record against Army. Paul Johnson turned in a 6-0 mark against West Point (2002-07), while Wayne Hardin won his first five games (1959-63) before losing.
• Navy has been the dominant Service Academy over the last decade, posting a 19-2 record (.905) against Army (11-0) and Air Force (8-2) in the last 21 meetings, winning eight Commander-In-Chief's Trophies in the last 10 years and going to nine bowl games in the last 10 years. Navy has amassed an 83-44 (.654) overall record in the last 10 years, while Air Force is 68-55 (.553) and Army is 32-88 (.267). The 83 wins are the 21st most in the country over the last decade.
• Navy is 4-0 this year in games decided by eight points or less after going 2-5 last year in such games.
• Ken Niumatalolo has led the Midshipmen to a 40-25 (.615) record in this his fifth season as head coach. He is fourth all-time at Navy in career wins. Niumatalolo holds Navy coaching records for most wins in the first two (18), three (27), four (32) and five seasons (40) of a career.
• Navy's four losses this season (Notre Dame, Penn State, San Jose State and Troy) have come at the hands of opponents who are a combined 35-13 (.729). Notre Dame (12-0) is ranked No. 1 in the country and will play in the BCS National Championship Game, while San Jose State (10-2) is ranked 24th and will play Bowling Green in the Northrop Grumman Military Bowl in Washington, D.C.
• Over the last 10 games (8-2), Navy has outscored the opposition in the second half, 153-83. The Navy defense has allowed just eight touchdowns in the second half of the last 10 games.
• The Mids have turned the ball over 12 times in their four losses and six times in their eight wins.
• Senior outside linebacker Keegan Wetzel scored a perfect 1600 on his SAT and is believed to be the only current FBS player in the country to accomplish such a feat. He carries a 3.89 GPA in systems engineering and was named a Capital One First-Team Academic All-American by the College Sports Information Directors of America. Wetzel has also been a force on the field for the Midshipmen, recording 74 tackles (tied for third on the team), a team-high 15 tackles for a loss, a team-high seven sacks, has forced a fumble and recovered a fumble. He is just one sack away from third on Navy's single-season sacks list.
• Keenan Reynolds is the first freshman to start at quarterback for Navy since Jim Kubiak started five games in 1991. Meanwhile, he is just the third freshman in school history to start at quarterback (the other was Alton Grizzard in 1987). Reynolds is 6-1 as a starting quarterback with wins over Central Michigan, Indiana, East Carolina, Florida Atlantic, Texas State and Army and a loss to Troy. He also came off the bench with Navy down eight points to Air Force in the fourth quarter to lead the Mids to an overtime victory. Kubiak won just one game as a freshman starter (beat a 5-5 Army team) and Grizzard won two games (lost to Army). Reynolds is the first Navy quarterback to win his first four career starts since senior Bob Powers, who won his first six career starts in 1979.
• Sophomore punter Pablo Beltran is averaging 43.9 yards per punt (40 punts) this season, which is the second-best single-season average in school history. John Skaggs currently holds the single-season punting record at 44.8 yards per punt in 2001. Beltran would stand 16th nationally if he qualified (must average 3.6 punts per game).
• Navy was 4-0 during the month of October after going 0-5 last year in October. It is the first time Navy went undefeated in the month of October since 1996. That Navy team finished 9-3 and defeated California in the Aloha Bowl.

May 11 – 17, 2020
Each year, beer weeks celebrate the culture and community of craft brewers across the U.S. The Brewers Association is happy to assemble American Craft Beer Week®, each May.
This celebration, coordinated by the Brewers Association's Craft Beer Program, is an exciting opportunity for craft brewers to commemorate their art and tradition with enthusiasts across the country.
Official Website
You'll find all the POS materials, social media links and ideas for how to be apart of American Craft Beer Week at CraftBeer.com. Be sure and post your events online as soon as you can. You can update them at any time at CraftBeer.com/ACBW.
In 2006, the Brewers Association decided to make American Beer Month (traditionally in July), into a week-long coordinated effort timed before the busy summer beer season.
One week's worth of national activities was found to be more manageable and thus more effective. Plus, the term "craft" was added to the title in order to dial in the focus of the events. This week has become the largest national effort focusing on American craft beer and remains so today.

Peace campaigners have uncovered the story of a man who survived the death penalty after refusing to fight in the First World War.
The Peace Pledge Union (PPU), Britain's oldest non-sectarian pacifist organisation, is working to bring untold stories of conscientious objectors to light during the war's centenary.
One story they have unearthed is that of Henry [Harry] Scullard, (1890-1964), a conscientious objector who lived in Warwick Road, near Sutton Grammar School.
The Government introduced conscription for the first time in 1916 and those who felt it was wrong to participate in the war faced the imprisonment, hard labour, torture and even the threat of execution.
Harry Scullard, an insurance clerk from Sutton, faced all of this and survived. He was a Congregationalist with a religious objection to taking life.
His application to be exempt from military service was refused at a tribunal hearing and he was arrested, fined and sent to the military in France where he was told refusal to obey an order was a crime punishable by death.
Harry underwent punishments including the dreaded Field Punishment Number One where he was tied with his arms outstretched to a barbed wire fence and left outside for 28 days.
In June 1916 he was told he would be faced with the death penalty unless he decided to fight in the war. He refused and a few days later his sentence was read out to him: "The accused were tried by Field General Court-Martial, had been found guilty and sentenced to death.
"The sentence has been confirmed by Field Marshal Sir Douglas Haig and commuted to ten years penal servitude."
Fortunately for Harry political pressure from supporters back in England had led the Government to denounce military punishments and the army backed away from shooting men most considered to be civilians.
Harry was sent to Winchester Prison in England before being moved to a work camp where he remained until after the end of the war in 1919.
It is thought he married in 1920 to a woman called Gwen Stevens and had a daughter.
PPU's work on Scullard is part of their Objecting to War project which aims to bring the stories of London men into the light after being forgotten for so long.
Ben Copsey, Objecting to War project manager, said: "Harry's story shows the remarkable strength and determination needed to be a conscientious objector.
"It shows how difficult it was to stick to your principles in the First World War and refuse to fight in what many believed was a pointless slaughter."

Such love for one another never excludes the possibility that our love may
fail from time to time. Yet, when love fails, we must recognize that our
love has failed and ask forgiveness and love again. All we need to do is
look at the lives of Simon Peter and Thomas. Both of them had failures in
their love for Jesus. The failure of Simon Peter was public and was known
to all in the early Church - and yet Simon Peter was still seen as the leader
of the Church. The doubts of Thomas were a less direct rejection of Jesus
but were also known to everyone in the early Church.
We can never use our failures to justify remaining apart from the Lord
What about when we are hurt or rejected by others. This was clearly what
Jesus experienced and yet he never stopped loving. Even his last encounter
with Judas is a kiss, which Jesus accepted. Jesus does not reject Judas.
We are invited to live as Jesus and that means always living with love for
others, even if they reject us. If we reject others, we must repent.
All of this speaks of proclaiming the Good News which we hear in the first
reading today. Paul and Barnabas are sent as a team. They give witness to
others of what God has done among His people and in them personally. You
and I are called to be witnesses also. When we forgive and are forgiven,
we bear witness to the presence of the Lord Jesus in our lives.
It is just as we have heard in the second reading: the old order has
passed away... I make all things new.
Christ is risen, alleluia.

Panel Calls for Overhauling Student Grants
A blue-ribbon panel is calling for an overhaul of the federal Pell-grant program for low-income college students, reflecting concerns that not enough of the award recipients end up graduating.
The report—set to be released Tuesday by a panel of educators convened by the College Board, a trade group of universities and colleges—adds to the debate about federal student-aid programs, which have grown rapidly under President Barack Obama.
The president is expected to propose a budget Wednesday that would again spend heavily on grants and loans, despite complaints from some Republican lawmakers and other critics that the programs, which require congressional approval, have become too costly and often ineffective in helping Americans get jobs. The grants are exempt from the sequester, the across-the-board spending cuts that began in March.
Federal Pell grants, which don't have to be repaid, are the Education Department's biggest expense. The program awarded $34.5 billion in grants to 9.4 million college students in the 2011-12 academic year. Spending is up by 84% since 2008-09, after adjusting for inflation, and the number of recipients has risen 52% since then.
The awards, which averaged $3,685 last year, are designed to help students from low-income families pay for tuition and other college expenses. They can be used at public, private and for-profit institutions. But dropout rates among recipients are high, leading to criticism that much of the money is being wasted. A quarter of Pell-grant recipients under age 25 who enrolled in the 2003-04 year earned a bachelor's degree within six years, according to the report. Among students 25 and older—whose numbers have grown during weakness in the job market—the rate was only 3%.
What's a Pell Grant?
A federal program awards Pell grants to needy students, almost always undergraduates
Maximum award: $5,550 a year
Average award: $3,685 in the 2011-12 academic year
Recipient age: Most are under 25, but a growing share—44% in 2010-11—are older.
Eligibility: Award amount is determined by schools, which consider a family's ability to pay for education based on income and other factors.
Source: WSJ research
The study recommends changes designed to steer funds to the neediest, away from some moderate-income families, while also improving students' chances of graduation. Colleges would determine a student's need and eligibility based on Internal Revenue Service data. Currently, colleges must independently verify a family's self-reported income and assets, a process that educators say is inefficient and can lead to fraud.
Education experts point to various reasons for the low graduation rates of Pell-grant recipients. Low-income students are often more likely to drop out because they grew up with limited education resources and are less prepared than their peers for college. Also, many students, even with the grants, must work part-time or even full-time to cover living expenses. That limits their time for studying, and many often drop out so they can work more.
The report recommends giving bigger grants to students who take more courses in a given semester and who attend summer sessions, to encourage speedier attainment of a degree.
The study also calls for different eligibility criteria and other rules for two groups—those 24 years old and younger, and students aged 25 and older.
Students in the older group would get more targeted, one-on-one counseling sessions at independent career centers. The idea is to advise people who are often switching careers and plan to get associate's degrees, rather than bachelor's, to pick up skills quickly to re-enter the labor force.
The counseling would cost an extra $900 million annually, according to the report—funding that would need approval from Congress.
People 25 and older represented 44% of Pell-grant recipients in the 2010-11 year, according to the College Board. Many are workers who have been laid off or are seeking to change careers but have little guidance about what to study, said James Jacobs, president of Macomb Community College in Michigan, who served on the panel. Those students are among the likeliest to drop out.
"They're often desperate" and hastily enroll in schools with low graduation rates, Mr. Jacobs said. The counseling centers would advise students about which schools are most affordable and effective, as well as the job prospects and income potential of given fields, he said. "They're encouraging you to get into programs that will lead you to a job."
Sandy Baum, an education consultant who headed the panel that produced the report, said many older Americans who go back to school don't have access to guidance counselors that are available to high-school students. "The evidence suggests it would change the path that a significant number of students take," she said.
The report is among a batch of reports produced in recent months and funded by the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation to produce ideas for overhauling student-aid programs. The Lumina Foundation, a private foundation that advocates for higher education, also provided funding for the report by the College Board, which is a not-for-profit membership association of educational institutions that also conducts research.

I just wanted to start off by saying thank you to everyone who wished me well and was praying for me this past weekend. It was hard but getting your comments and knowing that so many people out there cared for me made it a lot easier. Yesterday I was able to get in a 9 mile run, which wasn't what I had planned but my ankle is still healing from last weekend so I was happy with that. I am hoping to make this week my longest mileage week yet, coming in right around 50. Of course I am continuing my daily sit ups and push ups. My arms are so weak still, but I can tell that the push ups are making a difference. I am hoping for the best but we shall see how the ankle holds up.
I just tracked my Garmin package, I have a serious problem tracking packages, and I think it might even arrive later today! I am so excited to jump on the Garmin train and I will definitely be posting a review after I figure it out. I am sad to say that over 7-9 miles the Nike plus just doesn't hack it anymore.
Yesterday while out on my run on the beach path of Long Beach I noticed something different about my path. Ahead of me were a bunch of volleyball nets and a whole bunch of beach volley teams playing. A little back story here is that my college roommate and best friend is a volleyball player as well. In college for my 'work study' I was the volleyball team scorekeeper. We would always watch beach and sometimes, on occasion, she would let me play with her. She is really good at volleyball and though I miss her a lot, right now she is in Europe living out her dream playing for a team in Innsbruck, Austria. We still skype and chat online a lot and we try to send really random pictures to each other when we think the other is least expecting.
So anyways we've watched a lot of beach volleyball (AVP) together and both have come to love the THIN BEAST and his partner, The Professor. During the Olympics the Thin Beast was renamed the Beijing Beast, but I prefer the Thin Beast. My friend has even gone to the AVP and seen them play and she said yes, in real life, he's a thin beast. As I'm running I start to see that these players are legitimate and there are a few signs that say USA Volleyball. I didn't connect the two together until I saw him. I saw the Thin Beast. Obviously he was incredibly recognizable, a towering 6'9 is something you don't miss. I ran by and just watched everyone and then ran my loop and when I was passing again there was a stray ball coming towards the path I was running on. There was an older woman in front of me walking a small yorkie and I thought for sure she was going to give it back to the players but she kept on walking. Then I was the next closest person. I picked up the ball and thought about kicking it, but I was running in my running skirts, so I ruled that one out. I was a little cautious to hit the ball back to them but I threw it up in the air and luckily served it perfectly back to him and he said thank you. It was by far the highlight of my run.
It was crazy seeing them all out there though, but exciting for me at least. Today is a rest day for me and tomorrow I'm going to run 8 in the morning before work. Hopefully I can get out of bed. :)

Dr. Samuel Meisels, national leader in early childhood education, named executive director of NU's Buffett Early Childhood Institute
Dr. Samuel J. Meisels, one of the nation's leading authorities on the assessment of young children and early childhood development, has been named the founding executive director of the University of Nebraska's Buffett Early Childhood Institute, NU President James B. Milliken announced today. Meisels, currently president of Erikson Institute in Chicago, the country's premier graduate school in child development, will begin at the University of Nebraska on June 1, 2013. Prior to that date he will assist the university in beginning to develop staffing, strategy and other plans.
Additional quotes regarding Dr. Meisels' appointment
"We launched the Buffett Early Childhood Institute to become a national leader in early childhood education and development – to help create a more level playing field for at-risk children and families in Nebraska and beyond. Sam Meisels shares that vision and he is extraordinarily well-suited to lead the Institute," Milliken said. "His extensive experience in teaching, research and advocacy; his outstanding reputation and expertise; and his passion for improving the lives of children and families will help us achieve our goal of becoming a national leader and model for public universities in addressing early childhood."
Meisels said, "The Buffett Early Childhood Institute is being created at exactly the right time about precisely the right things in just the right way. The Institute has the philanthropic support, university backing, and applied research tradition that it needs to achieve its initial goals. It provides us with a rare opportunity to move the field of early childhood forward to change the lives of children and families in Nebraska and beyond. I am deeply honored to take on this new challenge."
Jack Shonkoff, professor of child health and development in the Harvard School of Public Health and director of the Center on the Developing Child at Harvard University, said: "The establishment of the Buffett Early Childhood Institute put an important stake in the ground toward advancing the healthy development of young children and their families. The selection of Sam Meisels as the founding director assures that this promise will be realized not only for Nebraska but for the nation as a whole. Congratulations to the University of Nebraska for this inspiring appointment."
Meisels has served as Erikson Institute president since January 2002. Erikson, an independent higher education institution, prepares child development and family service professionals for leadership. Through academic programs, applied research and community service and engagement, Erikson works to advance the ability of practitioners, researchers and decision-makers to improve life for children from birth to age 8 and their families. Erikson brings the newest scientific knowledge and theories about children's development and learning into its classrooms and out into the community so that professionals serving children and families are informed, inspired and responsive.
Meisels led Erikson through a time of substantial growth. During the past decade the size of the student body more than doubled, the value of Erikson's endowment doubled, and grants and contracts awarded to faculty and staff increased by nearly 150 percent. Meisels also spearheaded a capital campaign that allowed Erikson to build a new campus, establish centers devoted to clinical, pedagogical and policy matters, initiate new programs in distance learning and for dual language learners, and extend the institute's influence on the field by investing more heavily in applied research and community-based interventions.
Meisels came to Erikson Institute after a distinguished 21-year career at the University of Michigan, where he is now professor and research scientist emeritus. At Michigan, he was awarded the Faculty Research Award in the Horace H. Rackham School of Graduate Studies. His research interests include developmental consequences of high-risk birth, with a focus on disabled children and infants born at extremely low birth weight; policy issues related to early intervention and assessment; and development of screening instruments and alternative assessment approaches for young children.
Previously, he was associate professor and director of the Eliot-Pearson Children's School in the Department of Child Study at Tufts University and served as senior adviser in early childhood development at the Developmental Evaluation Clinic of Boston's Children's Hospital. He has taught in preschools, kindergarten and first grade in the Massachusetts public schools. Meisels graduated magna cum laude from the University of Rochester, where he studied philosophy, and his master's and doctorate degrees are from the Harvard Graduate School of Education.
The Buffett Early Childhood Institute was created in 2011 with a generous gift from Omaha philanthropist Susan A. Buffett, chair of the Buffett Early Childhood Fund. The institute is a university-wide, multidisciplinary research, education and policy center focused on promoting the development and success of children from birth to age 8, especially those who are vulnerable because of poverty, abuse, or developmental, learning or behavioral challenges.
"Dr. Meisels is a world-class leader for the new Institute," Buffett said. "He brings just the right vision, experience and skills needed to launch this initiative. With Sam at the helm, the Institute will play a major role in transforming early childhood practice, early childhood research and early childhood policy in Nebraska and across America."
Meisels was named following a national search. The Buffett Institute search committee was chaired by Marjorie Kostelnik, dean of the College of Education and Human Sciences at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln. Meisels will be a tenured professor in the college, with courtesy appointments to be requested at the other campuses. Kostelnik said, "Dr. Meisels is an eloquent and forceful advocate for young children and their families. We welcome him to Nebraska and look forward to his leadership of the Buffett Early Childhood Institute."
Other members of the search committee were:
- Charlie Bicak, senior vice chancellor for academic and student affairs, University of Nebraska at Kearney
- Eric Buchanan, assistant vice president and director of corporate and foundation relations, University of Nebraska Foundation
- Nancy Edick, dean of the College of Education, University of Nebraska at Omaha

There are plenty of ways to make potatoes, but we're confident scalloped potatoes is one of the best. And this recipe using two of our favorite types of cheeses - Gorgonzola andChèvre - and our French Garden Blend Sea Salt is sure to please!
Of all our different sea salts, French Garden Blend Sea Salt seemed like the ideal choice for this recipe. A blend of garlic, bell peppers, and onion makes this salt is one of our most popular and its herby flavor enhances any dish its added to, especially potatoes. Also consider using this salt as a rub for steak or chicken.
The sauce, made from equal parts whole milk and heavy cream, give the potatoes a creamy texture. Chèvre, a more mild, creamy cheese, and Gorgonzola, a semi-soft, robust cheese, balance one another out - creating a harmonious blend for a cheese lover!
While this recipe requires some patience - the potatoes take approximately an hour and a half to bake - it's certainly well worth the wait. The time allows the potatoes to become tender and absorb the cheesy cream sauce. Turn on the broiler in the last few minutes of baking to give the potatoes a crispy finish. Despite the lengthier cook time, the rest of the preparation is relatively quick and simple. These scalloped potatoes can serve as the side to a number of dishes, whether you're grilling up a juicy steak or roasting a chicken.
Gorgonzola-Chèvre Scalloped Potatoes
3 lb russet potatoes
2 teaspoons Saratoga Olive Oil Co. French Garden Blend Sea Salt
4 oz chèvre
4 oz crumbled gorgonzola
1 cup whole milk
1 cup heavy cream
1. Slice peeled potatoes into 1/8-inch thick slices. Place in bowl of cold water.
2. Combine milk, heavy cream, cheese and 1 teaspoon French Garden Blend Sea Salt in bowl and mix thoroughly.
3. Drain and dry potatoes. In a large, buttered bowl (3 or 4 quart, or casserole dish) layer potatoes, pouring cheese mixture over each layer. Sprinkle each layer with remaining French Garden Blend Sea Salt.
4. Cover with foil and bake at 350°F for 45 minutes. Remove foil and bake for an additional 45 minutes.
5. For crispier potatoes, broil for 2-3 minutes.

Traditionally, the consumer's behaviour has been immersed in a linear economy in which products are made, used and disposed of. Nevertheless, since 2014 a new trend has been taking place: the sharing or circular economy.
Under this new system, the consumption of products and services is moving from owning to sharing and renting. This encourages reusing and recycling in order to give a better use of goods and skills, which not only provides an innovative experience but also an economical benefit.
The 'use, don't own' notion
According to Vincent Rousselet, director of consultancy Vincent Rousselet & Associates, there are 4 factors that have been essential in the spring and development of this peer to peer consumption model:
- The recent credit crunch has made people reconsider their consumption patterns.
- The increased development of the internet and the global connectivity
- The tracking of user online behaviour provides valuable, predictive insights (big data)
- The rise in the user's consciousness of the consequences of consumerism, regarding specifically the global climate change.
So far, the technological platforms are the foundation and main channels that let this collaborative system evolve around the world. The Nesta report 'Making Sense of the UK Collaborative Economy', states that in 2014 "25 per cent of UK adults used internet technologies to share assets/resources over the last year."
Some of the most outstanding examples are Airbnb and Uber. The first one encourages individuals to share their homes for short periods of time while the latter transforms private cars into resources for public transportation. Most of these companies are for-profit services that only keep a small fraction of the fees charged.
According to the Journalist's Resource, Airbnb has over 10 million guest-stays on their records and 500.000 properties listed while Uber is doubling its profits every 6 months.
Even though this economic model has worldwide detractors that argue it replaces secure jobs through a trend of part-time, low-paid work, there are already around 860 start-ups in this sector. Accounting for 1 in 10 of these, the UK is the European capital of the sharing economy.
Stand out start-ups
Since these peer-to-peer services are an alternative towards the fulfillment of the different consumption patterns, there are several start-ups that are worth noting due to its creativity or valuable contribution to a more sustainable socio-economic model:
1. Feeding Forward (United States)
This platform allows any kind of business can request a pick up of their food surplus. Considered to be a donation, it is afterwards delivered to nearby shelters in need. The objective is to allow companies to receive a tax reduction and reduce disposal costs while ending hunger in the world.
2. Fon (Spain)
Through millions of hotspots around the world, it enables users to share their WiFi network in exchange of getting this service for free in any of the 16 countries that are part of their network. It started with residential wireless connection only and then moved forward to small, medium and large venues.
3. Misterbnb (United States)
With 30.000 hosts in 130 countries, this is the largest gay travel accommodation in the world. The objective is to develop a sense of belonging by helping this community to travel safely while learning local insider tips.
4. Hassle (United Kingdom)
Regardless of the venue (room, flat or even a mansion) this company is able to provide a local professional cleaner in a 60-second online request. No matter if it is a one-off, weekly or a fortnightly clean, the cost per hour will always be the same and it can be refunded if the service is not good enough.
5. Pley (United States)
Subscription platform that allows families to rent toys for a short period of time (as kids grow). Through a 70% cost reduction and the elimination of clutter, the aim is to raise a playful, creative generation aware of the principles of sharing and waste reduction.
6. Kiwi (Colombia)
As long as it is legal, this company challenges users to ask them for any kind of service or product. Food, alcohol, electronics, reservations, plane tickets, health care services, clowns and even pranks can be requested. Through a network of national and international providers, Kiwi is capable of providing a 24/7 service in Bogota and Mexico City.
The Sharing Economy has had a smashing beginning. Even though it seems to be a promising land entailing a social, cultural, economic and environmental transformation, it is paramount to create global and local legal frameworks able to regulate its proper implementation.
If this system manages to integrate and assemble the multiple society sectors under a common good premise, in the future we might discover that we are currently in a historic transitional period towards a new worldwide economic model.

Ryan Green of Loveland is turning the tragedy of his son's death into a tribute in the form of a unique video game titled That Dragon, Cancer. Although players won't be saving princesses after battling the fire-breathing creatures traditional to fantasy, this journey isn't any less fulfilling.
That Dragon, Cancer is Green's way of memorializing his 5-year-old son, Joel, who passed away in March after battling a series of Atypical Teratoid Rhabdoid Tumors or AT/RTs . He was diagnosed when he was 1. That Dragon, Cancer chronicles the questions, thoughts and feelings of Green's family of six as Joel goes through nine rounds of radiation therapy and battles at least seven tumors.
The game is being developed by a team of five people and is scheduled for release for the Ouya system later this year. Green and his team presented a demo of That Dragon, Cancer at this year's Denver Comic Con.

Neither one would appreciate the comparison, but Democratic Governor Jerry Brown and his Republican predecessor Arnold Schwarzenegger have a lot in common when dealing with the legislature on budget matters.
During his term as governor, Schwarzenegger pressed the legislature repeatedly to reduce expenditures, often using his "blue pencil" to cut allocations when the budget bill hit his desk.
Now Schwarzenegger's Democratic opposite, Jerry Brown, finds himself in the same quandary. For months, Brown has been demanding that the legislature pare expenditures now to minimize the runaway state budget deficit. And once again, the legislature has rejected the governor's lead.
U.S. & World
News from around the country and around the globe
All of this might have been understandable with Republican Schwarzenegger, who faced a legislature dominated by Democrats. But Democratic Governor Brown and the still-Democratic legislature are supposed to be on the same page. But they're not.
Matters have become so tense between the two policy making bodies that last week Brown challenged the legislature to "man up" to its responsibilities, an invective similar to Schwarzenegger chastising his legislative opponents for being "girlie men."
So what produces this animus, regardless of political party affiliation?
Much of the clash is due to their different responsibilities. As governor, Brown must look at the big picture.
That means proposing solutions in areas that affect almost everyone. Public education, infrastructure, and social programs are some of the big ticket items that come to mind. When revenues lag, these areas immediately surface because they require the most dollars.
The legislature has different responsibilities. Not only must that body pull the funding trigger, but members are sure to feel the pressure from the relatively small districts of voters to whom they are accountable. In other words, they must deal with the reaction to reductions much more than the governor.
One answer, of course, would be to raise taxes, something that would alleviate the stress on both sides. But the voters have been resistant to such an approach, leaving Brown and the legislature in a tight spot.
With new taxes off the table in the short term, Brown, like Schwarzenegger, is pursuing the only other course: spending cuts. Meanwhile, the legislature is hoping for a miracle in the form of greater than expected revenues in the last three months of the fiscal year.
They have a better chance of winning the lottery.
Almost every month for the past nine months the state controller has reported expenditures higher than expected and revenues lower than anticipated. That's a lousy combination, which has led to Brown's demands.
One way or another, the state will hit a deficit wall on July 1. The only question is, how much?
Which leaves us recalling Thomas Jefferson's famous axiom, "Never put off until tomorrow what you can do today."

Cylinder Magnetic Selector is mainly composed of the shell, rotary door, and magnetic core.
The magnetic core consists of shunt umbrella hat, magnetic ring and magnetic core cylinder.
The materials will fall down from the upper flange mouth, homodisperse fall through a shunt
umbrella hat, during this process the mixing iron impurity will be quickly attracted by the magnetic ring, thus separated with the oil material. The Cylinder magnetic selector has the advantages
of running without electric power, saving energ, and ease-maintenance.
2) Softening of cotton seed oil machine
The Vertical Softening Pot consists of several layers of super posited pots each layer of the
pot structure of is basically the same. They all have the edge and bottom laminated sandwich,thesteam enters through the sandwiches to heat and soft the material. There has a vertical axis
through the center of each layer of the softening pot, and each layer of the pot has two paddle
stirring wings, which are fixed on the vertical axis, the paddle stirring wing stirs the materials.
And each layer of the pot has bed opening and each bed opening has an automatic flow
controlling gate, through controlling the blanking quantity reach the goal of controlling the height of the material height. Meanwhile, each layer of the sidewall of the pot body has the exhaust
pipe, the exhaust pipes are connected to the exhaust collector, thus to drain the evaporating
steam in the process of softening.
3) Extrusion/Puffing of cotton seed oil machine
The tempered rice bran will be extruded by the extruder in order to strengthen the extrusion
effect. The oil material will be extruded, kneaded, sheared, pressurized, and under the effected
of a series of wetted the gushed steam and friction functions, the oil material's cell has been
completely destoried, the oil will be fully exposed. At the end of the extrusion screw, the
material pressure and temperature is very high, the high pressure and temperature material get
out of the hydraulic die head will expand and the moisture of the material will evaporate quickly for the sudden release of the pressure, then we can get the loose, porous and high strength extrusion materials.
4) Cooling of cotton cotton seed oil machine
The extruded material will go into the plate dryer, through the adjustment of the plate dryer, the material can reach the best moisture and the optimum temperature to extraction.

After making a new wordpress site on my shared Godaddy host I fought an issue for hours where WordPress admin and ninja form emails could send to any other email address but not the email address from the same domain. Finally, I called support and the fixed it up mentioning it was something I could change… I didn't listen closely enough. After it happened again I finally found the magic sauce in a post and decided to make my own instructions for fixing the issue with pictures!
Node-Red and MQTT is awesome for real-time data, but what if you want to store and retrieve messages? Its rather straight forward to use Microsoft SQL Server as your database. MSSQL is free and easy to get started with.
I wanted to install a SSD on the Windows 10 desktop that my Node-Red ran on and ended up reinstalling windows. I had exported my flows and re imported them, all good. Later on I spent a few hours adding more good stuff. Everything was fine until a few days later when after a reboot, all my flows were gone!
Talk about a mix of anger, panic, and regret. Why didn't I back up my work!?
Mars rover remixed and inspired by bolbots mars rover on Thinigverse. http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:1583399
The rover uses an Arduino 101 for brains, BLE for communication, and the Blynk app for remote control.
Kossel XL 2020 RepRap
I used my first RepRap Mendel Prusa 2 to print my Kossel Mini. The Kossel Mini has been a wonderful printer but I wanted something a tad bigger so I embarked on a journey to build a big Kossel RepRap 3D printer. As of writing this post there is a significant lack of affordable kits for large Kossel printers out there so I found some inspiration online and started building my own Kossel XL 3D printer. I am very proud of the results, its gorgeous and prints great!
If you don't know already, RepRap printers are open source, no one owns them, you do! The community has a lot of information on building your own self replicating 3D printer, http://reprap.org/wiki/RepRap
Intel Arduino 101 based tank with BLE and Blynk!
This project uses the Intel Arduino 101 board that has a built in IMU and (BLE) Blue Tooth Low Energy. For the remote control I used the free Blynk app which is is available for Android and iPhone, it allows you to rapidly drag and drop some buttons to create a user interface. The Chassis is a Dagu DG012 from Sparkfun.
I tried to power the whole rig from the 5 AA battery pack that came with the chassis but the Arduino kept resetting on low voltage. Ideally I would use a nice LiPo battery pack but I think it's reaching to expect a beginner to learn about the care and feeding of LiPos and purchase a charger so I chose to power the motors separately from the Arduino using a USB Battery pack. Be sure to remove the optional battery jumper on the Adafruit motor shield or you can fry some things, the power sources need to be separate.
Legacy IIoT devices can be modernized utilizing edge of network devices to send data to the Azure IoT hub and Machine Learning. This can create cost and efficiency improvements and reduced downtime.
The issue(s)
I will try to quickly explain the issue of liquid loading and slow legacy communications. Keep in mind there are many other issues that can be alleviated with this solution and there is no way I could mention them all. Oil & Gas Wells can "Load Up" with liquid reducing production and possibly incurring costly intermediation to relieve the issue. In the Machine Learning Video at the bottom of this post I go into great detail about this issue.
The August 2016 DFW Hackster MQTT meeting was a blast. Here is a link to the online presentation. https://sway.com/DpyBV3JjNYoTFrsx
If you check back on this post I will update it with related videos. I promised some people at the event to do an Arduino MQTT demo and also finish up my video on the MQTT garage door opener.
If you want to get started with MQTT in your own time here are some resources:
What is MQTT
TI LaunchPad MQTT demo.
Software to Download:
Download HiveMQ it is free but they will make you fill out contact information for the download link. There is lots of great info and white papers on MQTT here so stay awhile and do some reading!
You will need a MQTT test client, I suggest MQTT.FX
Here are source code samples for NodeMCU, WeMos, and TILaunchpad.
I want Node-Red to start up (and other command line programs) when Windows 10 starts. Batch files are a simple way to achieve this.
One feature, bad or good, is the batch file will open a command prompt window that essentially acts like a live log viewer for node-red. This is fine for my application because I have a PC dedicated running 24-7 for a camera video server, MQTT server, and now Node-Red. I like being able to see what Node-Red is doing, if you want Node-Red to run in the background as a service you will want to use a different method.
Cortana can easily be extended to aid you with your DIY home automaton projects. In this example Cortana sends MQTT commands to open and close a garage door as well as ring the doorbell with custom jingles. By the way, you don't have to use MQTT, you can also do a whole lot of other things as well from opening a file, opening a program, or launching your favorite websites.
As of the writing of this entry I am frantically trying to finish documenting the MQTT Doorbell and Garage Door Opener devices in separate posts. Hopefully I can get those whipped out in a few days.

Man Mark over at Good Math, Bad Math got an advanced copy of Behes latest, 'The Edge of Evolution.' (Foiled by D-list blogging again-- Deniers didnt send me an advanced copy of Blondies 'Science Outsold'. I even asked!)
Now, Behe has always aggravated me, as I first became aware of his existence when I was taking introductory immunology... and I found I could refute his 'arguments' regarding the immune systems. "That dude isnt right" I said to myself at the time.
Ive tried to ignore him as best as I could since then. Honestly, I thought it was a little funny that he went after the bacteriologists with the damn flagellum and the immunologists with "Immune system cant evolve blah blah", but I never thought he be silly enough to go after something I research. I mean Im sure he reads my blog daily and knows hed be snarkified by a chick half his age if he tried to touch stuff I do.
GM/BM-- Anyway, the new book is based on what comes down to a mathematical argument - a mathematical argument that I've specifically refuted on this blog numerous times. I'm not mentioning that because I expect Behe to read GM/BM and consider it as a serious source for his research...
Okay, so I cant claim 'D-list blogger help help Im being repressed' this time. I guess Behe doesnt read much of anything, if Marks summary of his latest book is accurate.
Ouch. I dont talk about my research directly a whole lot here (except for pretty pictures, of course), but like I put in my blurb, I study the evolution of HIV within patients and within populations. Fitness and fitness landscapes are vital to my research. And if Mark has summarized Behes claims properly-- Im kinda peeved *fumes*
The basic argument in this chapter is the good old "fitness landscape" argument. And Behe makes the classic mistakes. His entire argument really comes down to the following points:
- Evolution can be modeled in terms of a static, unchanging fitness landscape.
- The fitness landscape is a smooth, surface made up of hills and valleys, where a local minimum or maximum in any dimension is a local minimum or maximum in all dimensions.
- The fitness function mapping from a genome to a point of the fitness landscape is monotonically increasing.
- The fitness function is smoothly continuous, with infinitessimally small changes (single-point base chanages) mapping to infinitessimally small changes in position on the fitness landscape.
No one can have a basic, basic, basic understanding of 'fitness landscapes' and come out thinking those four points are valid. Just watch, Ill explain fitness landscapes to you all right now in the context of HIV, and you will get it! You, even those of you with zero biological training, will be able to refute Professional Creationist Michael Behe! Yay!
Okay, check it out-- think of a graph. On the Y-axis, think of something that contributes to natural selection. For HIV, a good one is T-Cell escape. On the X axis, every point is a potential HIV sequence. EVERY possible HIV sequence. X-axis is real long, but lets pretend it looks like this: The HIV genome sequences that are 'better' at staying under the radar of T-cells have higher Y-axis values (peaks), and the ones that cant escape very well have lower values (valley).
This is a two dimensional graph. Its not really two dimensions. You see, for every contribution to natural selection, you add another dimension. Add a Z-axis to that graph-- escape gp120 antibodies. Add a W-axis-- escape gp41 antibodies. Add how fast Env can get the virus into the infected cell, host nutrition, resistance to Drug 1, resistance to Drug 2, resistance to TRIM5a, resistance to APOBEC, etc etc etc etc etc. Physicists get excited when they find another dimension... but they aint got nothin on HIV fitness landscapes. I dont think you could even quantify how many dimensions there are to that simple 2D graph from above.
So Sequence 1 might be GREAT at escaping T-cells... But it might be awful at controlling TRIM5a. Sequence 2 might be incredibly efficient at infecting cells, but isnt resistant to Norvir. So HIV explores all these possibilities and creates a quasispecies-- instead of points on a graph, like above, when you combine all the possible fitness axes, you get a cloud of maximally fit viruses. NOT optimally fit! Maximally fit, for the given parameters!
This is what you find when you take a blood sample from an infected patient and sequence all the HIV viruses you find-- Most viruses have a very similar sequence, but different enough that you get a cloud, not a single point of identical viruses. Let me amuse you and draw a picture in paint:
- Fitness landscapes are never static. At least I cant think of a scenario where that would happen. Ever. Someone give an example if you can think of one.
- A peak in one dimension can be a valley in another dimension. This is clearly demonstrated in HIV, where drug resistant viruses obviously have a fitness cost. When you take the patient off the drug, drug resistant HIV is rapidly overtaken by wild-type viruses.
- What is it with Creationists and things always getting 'better'. Right now Im trying to determine if fitness increases/decreases/randomly changes over time in long-term drug naiive HIV patients. For all I know, HIV viruses are decreasing in fitness over time, but increasing in transmissibility. Things dont always go in one direction!
- Dumb, dumb, dumb. One/Two/Three base-pair changes in HIV can tank a sequence from the top of a peak in one dimension (replicative capacity) to the bottom of that dimension, and pop you to the top of the quasispecies in another dimension (drug resistance). One mutation doesnt equal a little better, another mutation equals a little better, another mutation, etc etc etc.

Took the dogs for a long hike today and thought I'd share a few pics.
Buddy, Tasha, Docker, and the neighbor came along with his dog for a little while but they soon turned back (pussies!)
"Hey, where'd my brothers go?"
"There they are."
"We're comin'!"
Docker refused to participate in the posing.
Got a little far ahead and had to run back and check on Dad (he's kinda slow, he only has two-wheel drive).
What could be more fun than exploring a "den" made from a fallen tree! Docker could have used that as a pretty slick bachelor pad only a few weeks ago!
And finally, at the top of the trail, we keep running into this dog (with it's owner). It is quickly becoming Docker's favourite running mate. Her name is Kuna (sp?).

Dear Lazy Environmentalist,
How can I earn money recycling my electronics?
Ever wonder why certain municipalities or companies charge you a fee when agreeing to recycle your electronic devices? I mean, you paid for them and the products still have value. So why should you have to pay to have them properly disposed? I think we all deserve to be paid for our electronics when we're ready to part with them. Fortunately, so do a handful of entrepreneurs who have created services that do just that, i.e. pay you to recycle.
Instead of contributing to the already challenging problem of e-waste by tossing your used electronics into the regular trash — which eventually ends up in a landfill — turn to a company like Gazelle. Simple search menus on the company's website inform visitors of the residual market value of their desktop computers, laptops, digital cameras and other devices. Gazelle then sends you a prepaid postage box in which to ship your product back to the company. Once you send in your products and their condition is verified, Gazelle will mail you a check. It's that simple.
A similar Recycle philosophy fuels GreenPhone.com. The site tells you how much your cell phone or PDA model is worth and then allows you to mail it in for cash. The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) estimates that across the United States, more than 500 million old cell phones languish in desk drawers and other storage spots. Disposing of these devices properly is of vital environmental concern since the devices contain hazardous chemicals like arsenic and lead that can be released into the atmosphere, soil and groundwater.
GreenPhone.com allows you to protect the environment while earning a little spending money — never a bad thing. If you're feeling more virtuous, visit CellPhonesForSoldiers.com, an organization that collects and recycles used cellphones and uses the proceeds to pay for calling cards that it gives to soldier serving overseas so they can connect with friends and family members back home.

When I saw the promo pictures I instantly thought of the limited edition Coral powder that came out a few years ago. You can see it below on the right:
If you'd like to see pictures of my entire collection (as of December 2010), click here. Now onto this palette. Firstly, I apologise, but there won't be any swatches just yet. It's such a pretty thing, I'm not ready to destroy it yet. Yeah, I know, I'm crazy. Anyhow, the palette contains 3 shades of eyeshadows and one shade of blush. On top of each there is a raised coral pattern with gold overspray on top which should disappear after the first use. The compact itself is white with the same coral pattern and the word Chantecaille printed on it. Mine didn't come in a box. There is a full size mirror in the lid as well.
I now cannot wait for the Elephant Palette to make an appearance on eBay, although it is already available from Space NK for £74 if you want it right now.
See more pictures of the Coral Reefs Palette after the jump!
