There are three types of grillers out there; the cookout party grillers, the summertime only folks, and the year-round grill enthusiasts. For true grillers, winter grilling is not a deal breaker. You can enjoy delicious grilled and smoked flavors throughout the cold months as well. Follow Rural King's tips for winter grilling, and you will be cooking (and eating) like the pros in no time!
Preparing Your Grill
The first step to winter grilling is making sure your grill or smoker is ready to go.
- Clear the snow off your grill so you can control the heat temps. No matter what time of year, you should have your grill under a grill cover. This not only extends the life of your grill, but it also makes it easy to remove snow when you're ready for winter grilling.
- Buy a grilling blanket, or better yet, a moving blanket. Moving blankets cost less and work just as well at keeping the inside temperature constant.
- Before you cook, preheat your grill or smoker for about 15–20 minutes instead of the 5-10. It takes longer for your grill to warm up when it's freezing outside.
Winter Grilling Gear…for You!
Winter grilling should be an enjoyable experience, not a chore. If you're not prepared for the chill, you're not going to be eating tasty grilled food much with winter.
- Wear winter gear; thick gloves, knit hat (face masks work wonders!), winter coat, boots. Your grill may be warm, but you'll need to keep that baby closed to make sure your meal is cooking. Be sure to bundle up!
- Avoid wearing any scarfs, tassels, or loose clothing that might come in contact with your grill. The idea is to cook your food, not your clothes.
- Use tools that have heat-resistant grips to make it easier to work with thick gloves on. This FireDisc Shovel-Spatula-Scoop is an all-in-one grilling utensil with a nice grip.
Grilling Tips
Different types of grills and grilling locations can make a difference while winter grilling:
Charcoal Grills: Use a Chimney Charcoal Starter to get your next batch of coals ready before opening the lid. By doing this, you'll keep your meat at the required temperature.
Never Grill Inside your Garage, in an Enclosed Area, Or Under an Awning: This is not safe for any type of grill or under any circumstances. Whether rain, snow, or shine, keep your grill at least 5′ away from all combustible materials and in a well-ventilated area.
Keep the Lid Closed: If you keep opening and closing the lid to your grill like a maniac, your temperature will not be set correctly. Keep the lid closed until you need to flip, stir, season, or check the temperature.
The 90º Turn: Just a fancy way of saying, "Make sure that your grill is turned 90º away from the wind." This will block some of the cold wind from ruining the perfect temperature inside your grill.
Check the Internal Temperature of Your Food: Your food is going to take longer to cook in the winter. Instead of just guessing that your food is finished, take a minute or two to check the temp. Simply use a thermometer and refer to this Food Temperature Chart to help.
What Kind of Griller are You?
I hope these tips help you become the grilling champion I know you can be. For more grilling tips and recipes, check back in on our Grilling Category for more Grilling Adventures every other Friday.

Guest blogger: Stephanie Hufford
Hello, it's Stephanie again! The UMFA collections staff and I have been hard at work this summer surveying the European paintings collection. Painting conservator Carmen Bria joined us for a week to help perform the survey along with Yasuko Ogino, another conservator from the The Western Center for the Conservation of Fine Arts (WCCFA).
Before I fill you in on what we've learned so far about the UMFA's important collection of European paintings, I'll tell you a little more about why we're all here in the first place. The UMFA was recently awarded a major grant from the National Endowment for the Arts (NEA). This grant is funding a thorough object-by-object survey of the Museum's European paintings collection with assistance from contracted conservators from the WCCFA.
As part of the grant, UMFA engaged a pre-program intern (me!) to help with the survey. When the project concludes, I will assist in publishing a case study and summary of results to share with museum and conservation communities through the Web and conference presentations because the structure and process of this survey could help other museums plan similar projects. For the UMFA, the survey will help inform future conservation strategies, including a phased re-interpretation of the permanent exhibition galleries next year, beginning with European paintings.
And now back to our progress…
On Monday while the museum was closed to the public, we ventured upstairs into the European galleries to evaluate the paintings currently on view. Most of the paintings there are in good shape—with no obvious aesthetic or structural issues—so those didn't take very long. After that, we moved down into the Museum's secure collections storage, where the majority of the paintings being surveyed are located. The UMFA's new curator of European, American, and regional art, Leslie Anderson-Perkins, was with us most of the time, adding a curatorial perspective to the process.
While we were in storage, we found some paintings that were in need of immediate intervention. One large wooden panel painting was found with a vertical crack in the middle. Some paint was flaking off along the crack and needed to be consolidated so that it would be safe to continue storing the painting in a hanging position on the storage screens. (Flat storage takes up considerably more space, which is at a premium.) Carmen performed some spot treatment to adhere the flaking paint chips to the panel, and now it's safely stored again.
All the paintings that were surveyed were separated into three groups: paintings that need no treatment, paintings that need minor aesthetic treatment that can be done on-site, and paintings that need to be sent away for full treatment at a conservation lab. Now that the survey is done, we'll be able to look at all the condition reports for each individual painting and talk with Leslie to decide on treatment priorities, based on what will be exhibited in the future.
Overall about 200 paintings were surveyed. Now it's time for me to compile all that data, and I'll be back soon to report the results!

Consideration to Make before Buying Swimming Custom.
The clothes that we wear on our swimming vacations is very important in boosting our swimming experience. It is thus very significant to ensure that we have the best bikinis that will give us the comfort in our swimming vacations. Given that there are various boutiques that stock the swimming wear, getting the customized one that best fit our desires can be so overwhelming if don't know what to look for when buying the swimming attires. You should know that not every store that you will meet will offer you the quality swimwear, and it is this reason that we shall look at some important things that should guide you in the selection of the swimwear to buy.
Type of the swimwear.
The quality of swimming wear is looked at depending on the material that was used in in making them. you should feel the texture of the swimwear to ensure that it is of right quality before you buy it. Orchid boutique has made remarkable strides in offering quality swimming wear, and it is very much prudent to start from them in case you want attire that will meet your need. Best bikinis are those that are of good quality and will last for long while offering you a good run for your money.
The price of the designer swimwear will either entices you or scares you from buying the swimwear from the local shop. When the charges are overstated you will be not enthusiastic to purchase from the shop and you will keep on regarding for shops that have prices ranges within your economic ability. To buy these costume at reasonable cost you should be buying them online because these online sellers does not include other expenses on the good such as tax which often increase the overall prices of goods
You have to know your size before thinking of taking any type of swimwear. We all understand that swimwear ought to be tight on your body and very light to enable you enjoy your swimming escapade. When the swimming outfit is enormous on your body then you will not be in a place of appreciating the swimming as they will be feeling uncomfortable. Thus, care ought to be taken while choosing the swimming costume more so when you are buying for someone.
Everybody tend to be having his color that they like most and they will always go from the bikini having their preferred colors. This talks about taste and preference of the customers as some may like black costumes other will be in love with white costumes.

Last night I met a public school friend and her partner for dinner at 5. If you're wondering where we went…the usual place. When I got there the waiter said my party had already arrived and were in the drawing room. I have been there many times but didn't know that is what it is called. I was actually nervous about the evening because I hadn't seen her for 9 years although we talk regularly on Facebook but I hadn't met her partner. I shouldn't have been worried because he must be a nice guy if he's with her. She gets up to give me a hug and I waited for him to make the first move. Never know if people are huggers or not so we just shook hands.
When we sat down one of the waitresses came over and said nice to see you again so my friend leaned over and said "does everyone know you?" Yep, pretty much. After he took our order she passed over my presents. I opened the card first although I knew I should have waited until I got home because it always makes me cry and I forgot to put Kleenex in my purse. There is a picture of Janet, her and me and we are all hugging. She said it's because she could give me a hug in person.
After they had finished their soups I handed her one of her gifts. I made her a photo book with pictures of my visit to her in Vancouver. She said "this is the best gift ever!" I love seeing people's faces when they open a perfect gift. Since I will be sharing this post with her I will write here that this is the first year since my Dad died that I have had any Christmas spririt. That's why I got carried away with gifts because I wanted to share it with people I love.
We took a cab back to my place but made a detour to the park to see the lights. I guess I hadn't been because I didn't want to go by myself. We stopped at the angel tree. I knew what it was for but had never stopped to look at the pictures on it. And so many butterflies. My friend saw two butterflies on top of Janet's grave and they have special significance to a family member too. We wandered around and I saw the Santa House. No line at all so I asked if we could do it. I could tell she wasn't so sure but it now has a place on my bookcase. We took a few more pictures posing in front of Santa and his reindeer and the snowmen.
We walked back to my place so they could call a cab so I asked if they wanted to come up and see it. Thankfully I was supposed to have company today so the place was clean. I could give her complete tour as my bedroom looks like something exploded inward. She did agree with me it needs more art.
A evening filled with much needed laughter.
Christmas fun

She confuses both men and women, "Men themselves have wondered, what they see in me." and "I'm a woman, phenomenally." shows that perhaps it's simply the fact that she's a woman. But the lines "Pretty women wonder where my secret lies. " suggest it's something more. Perhaps it's her womanly graces, her quietness and how she holds her head up. Whatever it is it shows yet another side of Black Womanhood, one that defies stereotypes and shows self love.

So we went sailing...
We have a 925 page book called "Chapman Piloting and Seamanship, 65th Edition" from the library sitting in our office. There's something about sailing that makes me want to know all the details, like it's a living breathing thing and not just another hobby. It's a sustainable version of an RV that travels over water instead of land and has its own subculture.
We took a triple certification class for a week from the ASA (American Sailing Association) that resulted in our ability to charter a boat. What? That means we can go to any charter company anywhere in the world and charter a boat on our own for a period of time. I don't know what that sounds like to you, but to me that sounds like sweet freedom and adventure.
We finished the class at the end of August, and we have yet to charter a boat since. It seems like Portland is more about owning boats than chartering. We're really excited to get out on the water again.
Emily was a fantastic sailor, she was behind the helm as we started our trip into 20 knot winds and heeled over with the lee rail nearly in the water.
I think my love affair with sailing comes from the thin lines between cultures. There are destinations and there are journeys, and sailing creates the idea of a journey like nothing else I can imagine. It's the slow way to get somewhere, taking only what you need and nothing more, taking your home and a piece of what you know along with you into the unknown. It was substantially different to visit the San Juans by boat than to roll in on a ferry with your car.
I see boats in our future.
"If you want to build a ship, don't drum up the men to gather wood, divide the work, and give orders. Instead, teach them to yearn for the vast and endless sea."
-- Antoine de Saint-Exupéry

text: Drawing attention of premium segment sports car and SUV lovers, critics, customers and enthusiasts in India, Mercedes Benz India Private Limited launched two of its most prestigious cars, the Mercedes SL 350 and Mercedes GL 500 today in New Delhi. The two vehicles have been priced at Rs98.5 lakh and Rs 80.9 lakh (both ex-showroom Delhi) respectively. With this launch Mercedes India seems to have opened the bag of some of its best offering to India and the company expects takers in good numbers. The launch of the Mercedes SL 350 and GL 500 that took place in New Delhi today was presided by Mercedes-Benz India Managing Director Peter Honegg and a battery of celebrities and media personnel were also present on the occasion. In his inaugural speech, Peter Honegg expressed his view and hoped that the two different segment cars will be able to establish themselves well in the Indian auto market. Where the Mercedes SL 350 is a sports car with 3.5 litre V6 engine enough to pump enough adrenaline in the sports car lovers, the Mercedes GL 500 is perhaps the most powerful SUV in its segment that runs on a 5.4 litre V6 engine likewise pumping out enough power to handle any terrain. Notably, a same segment SUV GL 350 is already on roads in India and has been very well accepted by the people of India. Two things that will be offer a favorable ground to Mercedes SL 350 and Mercedes 500 is the growing number of sports car and SUV customers in India and Mercedes as a brand. As is suggested by the sales figures made public by Mercedes Benz recently, the company sold around 833 units in March 2011, a growth of 89 percent over March 2010 when the Mercedes was able to sell only 440 units.

The Armored Multi-Purpose Vehicle (AMPV) will replace the M113 Armored Personnel Carrier program that was terminated in 2007. The FY 2018 program funds engineering and manufacturing development (EMD) prototype testing (including performance and reliability testing), completion of the interim design review (IDR) and the functional configuration audit (FCA), continued development of logistics support products, procurement of live fire test assets, and procurement of 107 LRIP vehicles. FY 2018 funding requested is $674.4 million up from $184.2 million in the FY 2017 request.Story here.
Mil-Embedded.com gives a pretty good overview of the latest funding for armored vehicles for the Army and Marine Corps. I highlighted the AMPV because its the forgotten child in the whole thing, but the good news is that FINALLY we're seeing nice upgrades (read that to mean desperately needed) for American armored vehicles.
Especially heartening is the fact that the Army is moving forward with an APS so we can expect the Marine Corps to follow suit soon. Even if the idea is to stay the course with the M1A1 (still doing an article on that upgrade) an APS will help with battlefield survivability.
They're late but they're finally making moves to get the US armor house in order.

Ron and the recliner made the sound simultaneously as they collapsed into each other. Both were covered in dust and grease spots from hard work days much like this one. Ron took a deep, slow breath, closed his eyes, and exhaled. He picked up the TV remote and turned on the pregame show. He popped open a beer, silently congratulating himself for navigating through the minefield of Thomas trains and tracks strewn about the family room.
Ron wasn't sure how he had raised a gearhead, but that was undeniably the best way to describe Joey. The boy loved his trains and cars- anything with an engine. Ron didn't care much about these things himself, but somehow they had his son's full interest, which left no room for baseball.
Ron smiled at the Joey, who was rearranging the train tracks for the thousandth time. That's ok. The boy is so young. There's plenty of time for him to learn the game.
Still, when Ron was Joey's age he was obsessed with baseball. He had memorized every 500 home run hitter (there were a lot fewer of them back then). What if they never got to have a catch in the backyard? Ron had always envisioned coaching Little League as an integral part of fatherhood. Would this be denied him? Worse yet, would he force his son to become the apathetic daisy-picker in right field? What if they never fully bonded as a father and son? Would Joey grow up to resent him for pushing his own interests?
"Daddy, what team do we like?"
The question pierced Ron's dark thought cloud unexpectedly. Was this the moment? Could this be the seminal point in their relationship when he would begin to explain baseball to his son? If so, where should he start? How does one describe something so complex and magnificent? What if he blew it? This might be his one and only opportunity to define the future of their relationship.
Ron climbed down from the recliner and sat on the floor next to Joey. He pointed to the players on the TV screen as they took the field. "You see that team with the stripes? That's the Yankees. We LOVE the Yankees! Now, you see that other team wearing gray and red? That's the Red Sox. We do NOT like the Red Sox!"
Joey considered this for a moment. "Daddy, I like the Red Sox," said the toddler absently, as he continued to build his train tracks.
The world went dark. Ron's heart pounded. His vision blurred and his ears popped. Just breathe, he told himself.
Breathe in.
Ron thought he was a pretty flexible parent. Joey could grow up to love or marry anyone he wants of any race or gender. He could follow any career he wants. He could even drop out of school and be bum. Hell, he could turn to a life of crime, and Ron wouldn't care. As long as Joey was happy and healthy nothing else matters. Except for this.
Breathe out. Breathe in.
Ron's grandparents were immigrants who settled in Manhattan. Their first assimilation into American culture was rooting for Lou Gehrig and Joe DiMaggio. His parents grew up with Mickey Mantle and suffered through the Horace Clarke era. They never confirmed that he was named after Guidry, but Ron always assumed it was true. His family was older now, with strained relationships in certain places, but the one uniting thread was always the Yankees. HIS son could NOT like the Red Sox. It was simply impossible.
Breathe out. Breathe in.
Focus on breathing. Just think. Lifetime allegiances are declared at this age. The next few words could determine a lifetime of fanhood. More than that, it could bring him and son closer together- finally- or drive a permanent wedge through their relationship.
Ron opened his eyes. Merely seconds had passed. He willed himself to remain calm and turned to look his son in the eyes.
"If you want to be Red Sox fan, that's fine," he said slowly, 'but Yankee fans are going out for ice cream."
"I WANT TO BE A YANKEE FAN!" exclaimed Joey. "I WANT ICE CREAM!"
"Good boy! Go get your coat and shoes."
"Is Mommy coming for ice cream too?"
"No, son, she can't. Mommy is a Mets fan."

Recently, I participated in a survey, along with my younger colleagues, asking three questions regarding the future of the accounting profession. I am a dinosaur in our profession having passed the CPA exam in 1986. The first question, what is the most important issue in accounting today, was rather mundane. My response dealt with the three new standards issued recently by Financial Accounting Standards Board (revenue recognition, lease accounting, and credit losses). No brainer.
The second question asked: what would the accounting profession look like in ten years? Again, no brainer. I pointed out the limitless possibilities for accountants with the technological advances changing our profession daily.
I thought the third and last question would be a no brainer also, but was soon surprised. Who are the three most influential people in accounting today? My first thought was Wesley Bricker, Chief Accountant for the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). Like the old E. F. Hutton commercials, when he speaks, everyone listens. His opinion carries a lot of weight. My second answer, I thought, would be unanimous among respondents: Russell Golden, Chairman of the FASB. After all, FASB is the standard setter responsible for all U.S generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). How could I be wrong? My last choice was Jay Clayton, Chairman of the SEC.
Of course, none of my answers were wrong since this was a survey, but I could not believe my younger colleagues would arrive at such different conclusions. These are young and talented CPAs in the first decade of their careers, with resumes including a few years working in Hong Kong. We differed only little on the first two questions. It was the last questions that pointed out the huge divide in our opinions. I tend to view the world through the eyes of U.S. GAAP with less thought to the international accounting standards. My younger colleagues, however, view our profession with a more international perspective. Their responses include Hans Hoogervorst, chair of the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB), an excellent choice, with FASB and IASB working together now more than ever to arrive at a consensus in accounting standards.
It is not important for me to list all the choices of my colleagues. It is more important to recognize the changes affecting the accounting profession. These young accountants will never see an extraordinary item on their income statement, but I am seeing the day when auditors can test 100 percent of their sample.
The world of accounting is ever changing—the difference in answers I and my younger colleagues provided prove that. I hope that all these changes increase the confidence and assurances the public have in financial statements and the internal controls in place to protect the integrity of our profession. The future is limitless.

Motivational Minute: Who Am I?
One of my Facebook friends posed the question, How much does your job play into your identity? This is something I've thought about many times, as who I am seems to be very connected with what I do. The problem with that is, if what you do changes, so too does your sense of self. When self-image and self-worth are intimately connected to job performance, it's easy to feel as if you're not all you should be unless everything in your work life meets the standards you and others have set. For this reason, it's important to go on a quest to discover who we are as individuals, at our core – apart from work, apart from accomplishments, apart from what we do, and apart from others ' evaluation of our performance. Lying beneath the surface, hiding away somewhere, is an individual with inherent worth and value that is not dependent upon output but upon character. Psalms 139:13-15 reads, For you formed my inward parts; you knitted me together in my mother's womb. I praise you, for I am fearfully and wonderfully made. Wonderful are your works; my soul knows it very well. Upon discovery of that ever-illusive self, perhaps we can then answer the question, How much of your identity plays into your job?

Love Letter and Wine Box ritual
The letters and wine box are prepared by the couple in advance of the wedding ceremony. Each one writes to the other and their letters are sealed in separate envelopes. The couple also provides a wooden box with a special wine in it. The box will be sealed during the marriage ceremony with hammer and nails, screws or locked with a key.
After the giving of vows and the gifting of rings, the celebrant asks for the letters, speaks to the guests on their significance and places them in the wine box. The celebrant then either locks the box, or puts in the first nail or screw and asks the couple to complete sealing the box.
The celebrant then pronounces the couple married.
The wine box should be opened on the 5th wedding anniversary – however if there's good reason before that date open it and enjoy.
Have a great wedding.

If you are looking to truly enjoy the great outdoors, you might want to just step outside. Seriously; I am not being glib. I am not being flippant. I am keeping it real. You have to understand that regardless of where you live, the sun is probably showing up in all its majesty and glory. The sun can be very beautiful in your part of the world.
It would really be a shame for you to think that the only way you can enjoy a great sun-filled warm time in the great outdoors would be to jump in your car, drive for several hundred miles, whip out a tent, and allow yourself to sunbathe.
That's crazy. You don't have to go through all of that. It doesn't have to require all that effort. Seriously, if you're looking for a great time out in the sun, you only need to step outside, and one of the best ways to enjoy it is to get a baby sun tent. This is a smaller tent. It is easy to pack up, easy to put up and doesn't weigh all that much.
The best part is if it gets too sunny if it gets too warm and bright, your outdoor adventure doesn't have to be a miserable one. It doesn't have to be a punishment or an ordeal. By quickly putting up a baby sun tent, you can protect yourself from the elements and enjoy the great outdoors at the same time.
This doesn't take much thinking. This doesn't take much-advanced planning. You just have to know what to look for. You just have to be clear as to the proper quality features that make the most sense in your particular situation.
With all that said, you need to be both systematic and methodical about the kind of tent you're going to have to bring along for your trip. You can't be sloppy or careless about this. While you don't have to plan this all out with the same mission critical attention to detail and systematic forecasting of a moon landing, you can't assume that things will somehow randomly fall into place. If you fail to plan completely, don't be shocked if all your best laid plans completely fall apart. A little bit of focus definitely goes a long way. So what do you need to keep in mind when planning your next outing and your use of your baby sun tent? First, get a clear idea of where you are going. How sunny is the place? Is there are a lot of shade? Does the place get more than its fair share of rain? Does it get muddy? Next, focus on the particulars of your trip. How many people are going to be going on the trail with you? Do you expect your party to grow in size? Are there are any space or head count restrictions in the place you're headed out to? Keep all these in mind or else things might fall apart sooner rather than later.

My family and I could not be happier with the choice to enroll our kids at Children of Tomorrow. The teachers are welcoming, thoughtful and provide our kids with the individual attention they need. Between field trips, in-house programs and theme weeks, our little busy-bodies are always experiencing something new and exciting. As a parent, I appreciate the open communication and approachability of both teachers and staff. I feel completely involved with their learning and am confident COT has prepared my children for Kindergarten.

Shoppers love Lisbon, Portugal, and Rotarians who attend the 2013 RI Convention, 23-26 June, will find that each neighborhood has its own charms. Throughout the city, larger retailers typically stay open during lunch, while some smaller stores close from 1 to 3 p.m. Many shops are closed on Sundays.
Avenida da Liberdade
Lisbon's version of the Champs-Élysées is home to designer boutiques including Armani, Burberry, Gucci, and Prada.
Retailers such as Zara and Nike share this trendy quarter with the world's oldest bookstore (Livraria Bertrand, which opened in 1732) and the city's tiniest shop (Luvaria Ulisses, renowned for its custom gloves). Look for traditional gifts, including embroidered linens, locally harvested cork products (even purses and wallets can be made from cork), and pottery. Ceramic pieces featuring a brightly colored rooster are said to bring good luck.
One of the best buys in Portugal is gold; regulations require that jewelers put at least 19.2 karats into the pieces they sell. Head to Rua Áurea (literally "street of gold") in downtown Lisbon for the major jewelry boutiques.
Principe Real
Once-seedy Principe Real is on the upswing. Antique shops line Rua da Escola Politécnica and Rua Dom Pedro V. Fabrico Infinito, a gallery, antique shop, and restaurant all in one, embodies the neighborhood's new vibe.
Mercado da Ribeira
The main farmers' market entices visitors with its selection of fresh fish, produce, and flowers. Upstairs, the market building houses a restaurant and cultural center where you can buy traditional Portuguese crafts.
Register for the 2013 RI Convention at www.riconvention.org.

The Pataskala parks and recreation advisory board is learning that residents seem to want bicycle paths in town.
The Pataskala parks and recreation advisory board is learning that residents seem to want bicycle paths in town.
Board member Ann Walther shared with Pataskala City Council last week the results of citizen surveys.
"We've got 40 surveys back," she said after the Nov. 17 council meeting, and the desire for bike/walking paths was a common theme.
The request for bicycle paths ties in with the work of the city's ad hoc committee on neighborhood revitalization, a committee seeking ways to improve and connect three of the city's older neighborhoods.
Walther said now is the time for people to respond to the parks survey, which is posted on the city's Web site: www.ci.pataskala.oh.us. The deadline for survey submissions is Nov. 30.
Walther said people who don't want to complete the survey submit their comments instead.
"They can just send it in their e-mails so they don't have to fill out a form," she said.
The parks and recreation advisory board is continuing its search to find other ways to fund the city's parks and recreation department. Council voted in October to cut the department's funding if the Nov. 4 income-tax issue were to fail. The issue was defeated soundly.
During the Nov. 17 council meeting, parks board members asked council for time to find alternative funding sources.
"We are working very hard to see if we can come up with some kind of a positive solution," advisory board chairperson Jeni Ashbrook said.
Ashbrook and Walther said the group is determining how much money the parks department needs to be sustained. Members are investigating fee increases for programs, instituting a nonresident fee, asking for corporate sponsorships, seeking grants and soliciting volunteer help.
Pataskala City Council member Brian Raybourne asked if council could move forward with cuts and then accept funding solutions later when the advisory board has recommendations.
City administrator Timothy Boland said council did not have to take action Monday, adding that council did not vote to stop the parks department from being cut in 2009.

Police arrested three Indians after the brutal gang raping of a 22-year-old Japanese research scholar near a Buddhist pilgrimage centre in eastern India.
Police were looking for two more suspects who also allegedly kept the Japanese woman as a hostage for nearly three weeks in a village near Bodh Gaya, Bihar state, police officer Akhilesh Singh said.
She managed to escape from their captivity on Boxing Day and reached Calcutta, where she was based and filed a police complaint. She has been studying life in rural India for some time, Singh said.
A Calcutta-based guide is believed had taken the Japanese woman to Bodh Gaya, where there is a Buddhist pilgrimage centre in the area where Gautam Buddha is said to have obtained enlightenment under a tree.
She was held there by gang members for several weeks and repeatedly raped, police officer Singh said.
Pallav Kanti Ghosh, a Calcutta police commissioner, told BBC Hindi that the woman had been approached by two brothers as she checked into a hotel at the city, with one of the men "speaking very fluent Japanese".
According to Ghosh, the woman was raped after she was first taken to a beach resort in West Bengal state, and robbed. Later she was taken to Bodh Gaya, and "handed over to other gang members," Mr Ghosh said.
Two of the arrests were made from the area on Friday and one earlier this week in Calcutta, police said.
India has a long history of tolerance of sexual violence. But a series of high-profile rape cases have triggered a strong public outrage in recent years, leading to tough anti-rape laws.
India has doubled prison terms for rapists to 20 years and criminalised voyeurism, stalking and the trafficking of women.
The law also makes it a crime for officers to refuse to open cases when complaints are made.

Acoustic Guitars
Waterloo: WL-K(Item ID: WL-K)
Sorry, this item is not currently in stock'30s Era 12-Fret L-00 Style with Mahogany and Spruce and Light Sunburst Finish
From the Waterloo website:
"Inspired by the elusive instruments manufactured under the sub-brand Kel Kroydon around 1930, which were touted at the time to offer the utmost in vibratory response and the finest tone available, the WL-K is delicately built using lightweight materials and supported by thinly carved braces. Weighing in at under three pounds, the featherweight WL-K is built with maximum responsiveness in mind. When paired with a minimal lacquer finish, the resulting tone is dry and transparent with just the right level of complexity in the overtones, capable of capturing the expressiveness of the player down to the finest nuance.
With a 24 7/8" scale length and moderately sized, oval shaped neck, the WL-K is a fingerstyle player's delight, but this is by no means the extent of the guitars versatility. Exceptional clarity and note separation make it well-suited to a variety of other playing styles and a logical choice for singer-songwriters and purveyors of traditional roots music. A carbon fiber T-bar running through the neck provides stability and efficient transfers of energy back into the body, producing a resonance you can feel.
All WL-K models feature carefully selected spruce tops and mahogany back and sides with a light shade top finish, vintage-style cutthrough saddle, and come sans-pickguard. Due to this model's ultra-lightweight construction, we recommend a maximum string gauge of .011" to .052"."
* Body Width - 14 3/4"
* Body Length - 19 1/4"
* Body Depth - 4 1/4"
* Scale Length - 24 7/8"
* Nut Width - 1 3/4"
* Saddle Spacing - 2 3/8"
This guitar includes a TKL hardshell case.

90 Sec Statement - MIND Art Exhibition, Wangaratta
Posted September 23, 2014
CATHY McGOWAN (Indi) (13:51): The arts play an integral role in the culture of my electorate of Indi. People having creative outlets is also an important component of mental health and wellbeing in our communities. These health benefits can sometimes be overlooked, but recently I attended an art exhibition that reinforced to me how therapeutic it can be to pick up a paintbrush and put an image to canvas.
Congratulations to the artists who had the courage to be part of the inaugural Art in Mind exhibition at Wangaratta Art Gallery. And thanks to all the friends and families who gave support to the artists and also the 50 people who attended the gathering. These works are very colourful and expressive. The artists who meet at Mind Wangaratta each week deserve praise for their efforts. I hope you are all very proud of the beautiful and inspirational works you have created.
Well done to MIND Australia community mental health practitioner, Darryl Henwood; MIND Australia services manager, Werner Vogels; exhibiting artists Kelly Richards and Nella Messina; and curator Susan Murphy, who did a fantastic job putting it all together—and not to forget to mention Pam Procter (Proctor) for her excellent work. The 'cultural economy' is alive and well in Indi. I am so proud to be a sponsor and supporter of Indi arts, our culture economy and groups such as MIND, who do such a terrific job.

Anthony Bourdain And Asia Argento Are A Thing Now
I guess you could say Anthony Bourdain's parts are no longer unknown to Asia Argento. Prepare yourselves, the corny food jokes only get worse from here!
Anthony Bourdain, the hottest silver-haired grumpy TV food person not named Geoffrey Zakarian, has been single for a few months. He split up with his wife of nine years back in September. Nine years is a lot of years, and you'd think he'd want to make up for lost time by twirling his fork around as much random spaghetti as possible. But apparently he's already off the market again. Page Six says that 60-year-old Anthony is head-over-veal (show me the door) for 41-year-old actress Asia Argento, who is Dario Argento's daughter. Anthony and Asia have been papped in Italy walking hand-in-hand and making out while grocery shopping. Page Six says that one Italian news site has declared they've "fallen in love."
Anthony filmed an episode of Parts Unknown in Rome late last year, and he claimed that it wouldn't have been possible without the help of Asia. No word on if they got together during filming or after. I'm going to choose to believe it happened during, if only because it's fun to think of a crusty prick like Anthony Bourdain on a romantic Eat Pray Love-style spiritual journey.
Both Anthony and Asia like Italian food and what more do you need in a relationship? Someone to sex on and then eat pasta with sounds nice. And in between that, they can laugh about how her daddy makes movies that terrorize people's nightmares, and now she's dating a dude who lives to terrorize Guy Fieri.

My New Favorite Munchie
Shopping at the Price Chopper in Mission, KS is always a treat. Their produce section is huge and filled with fresh, exotic fruits and veggies. They carry a lot of authentic Mexican items and I always love going down those specialty aisles to check things out. On our recent trip we decided to pick up a bag of Plantain Chips. They are surprisingly not that sweet and have a great crunch.
It's my new favorite snack! Try 'em out.

Lemon Pepper and Basil Salmon Salad
The other night, I was craving a light "Springish" meal. I hadn't eaten salmon in a while, so I decided to try something new. I thought that the lemon pepper in the salmon would pair really well with the sweetness in the dressing and the pear. The sunflower seeds could add a little crunch. I would have added gorgonzola cheese, but I am on a restricted diet compliments of my Acunpuncturist. I don't like her very much right now. If I were you, I would add cheese because cheese makes eveything better.
· 2- 5 oz. filets of Salmon
· extra virgin olive oil
· 5 leaves of fresh basil
· lemon pepper seasoning
· fresh spinach
· 3 tbsp. white onion, chopped
· 1 pear, cut into small slices
· 3 tbsp. honey roasted sunflower seeds
· 3 tbsp. Rasberry All Fruit
· 1/4 cup of Balsalmic Vinegar
· 1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil
· Marinate both salmon filets in olive oil, sliced basil, and lemon pepper for a few hours.
· Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. (You could also cook Salmon on the grill for that smokey flavor)
· Cook salmon for about 20 minutes
· While salmon is cooking, prepare dressing by putting all ingredients in a bowl and whisking to emulsify the olive oil.
· Prepare salad in a bowl.
· When salmon is completely cooked, flake with a fork and put on top of the spinach salad. toss in dressing.

Rice Pudding
After doing a little spring cleaning today, I came across my photo album from the Paris trip I took with my mom and sister last year. I was looking through some of the pictures thinking about what Paris is like in the springtime and daydreaming. Oh, how I wish I could go back and visit! I love it there. Since I cannot transport myself there on a whim, listening to the French Kiss soundtrack and posting a recipe for Rice Pudding will just have to do. An imagination is a great thing. I know you are thinking... what does rice pudding have to do with Paris? Well, while we were there, my mom and I dined at this little French bistro and they brought us rice pudding for dessert. It was thick, creamy, and delicious. It came in little jars with mini spoons and it was the cutest thing I have ever seen. Every time I think of rice pudding, it puts me back in that quaint bistro in Paris with my mom.
Today, on this rainy Saturday, I am taking a trip to Paris- won't you come with me?
serves 4 ( 4 qty. 6-8 oz. ramekins)
Food & Wine Magazine
· 2 cups whole milk
· 1/2 cup Arborio rice
· 8 tsp. sugar
· whole nutmeg
· 4 tbsp. heavy cream
· garnish- cinnamon
· Preheat oven to 325 degrees with rack in the middle.
· Butter 4 ramekins
· Add 1/2 cup milk, 4 tsp rice, 2 tsp. sugar, and a pinch of salt to each ramekin. Finely grate a little nutmeg over each, then stir to combine.
· Put ramekins in a shallow baking pan and bake until most of the milk is absorbed and tops are golden-brown, about 1 hour (a skin will form). Cool puddings in ramekins on a rack, about an hour.
· Discard skin from puddings, then stir 1 tbsp. cream into each. Puddings can be eaten at room teperature or chiiled. (I prefer chilled). It takes at least 30 minutes to chill each ramekin.

CSX Corp. yesterday announced that the Mid-Atlantic Industrial Rail Park in Brunswick County, N.C., is designated a "CSX Select Site."Introduced last year, the Select Site program cites locations for manufacturing projects along CSX's network that can progress rapidly because standard land-use issues have been addressed and the site is deemed ready for development."The Mid-Atlantic Industrial Rail Park site is competitive and delivers on our program objectives to provide industrial companies with easier development decisions and faster speed to market," said Clark Robertson, CSX's assistant vice president of regional development, in a press release. "This [Select Site] program also helps communities identify and prepare sites that can compete for new investments and job creation."To receive a Select Site designation, a location must meet a rigorous list of criteria, including infrastructure and utility availability, environmental reviews, appropriate zoning and entitlement, air quality permitting, rail serviceability, proximity to highways or interstates, and other attributes, CSX officials said.The Class I previously designated 11 other locations across its 23-state service territory as CSX Select Sites.

Where did it all go wrong?
The 'Lance Armstrong doping scandal' has barely made it out of the news that another incredibly shocking story has rocked the sporting world, yet again; Oscar Pistorius has just shot his girlfriend dead, not once but four times!
What could have propelled two incredibly successful, worldwide revered superstar athletes to fall from grace in such a horrific way?
Picture: Lance Armstrong - AP photo/Laurent Rebours
At the time when the Armstrong debacle first unraveled a few commentators had asked the question: was Armstrong a psychopath?
Psychologists were quick to reply that we first had to distinguish between showing psychopathic tendencies and being a full-on psychopath. As it turns out, showing psychopathic tendencies such as mental toughness, fearlessness and ruthlessness could work in your favour in a competitive environment. And it was even suggested that quite a few successful athletes would most probably show some of those attributes.
However, when does it turn from extreme focus to dangerous behaviour? Both Armstrong and Pistorius have shown a propensity for angry outbursts. Lance Armstrong famously (and allegedly) accosted one of his ex teammates in a bar before a court case promising to 'f***ing tear him apart'. Granted, Lance used a team of lawyers to execute his sentencing, but his intent was clear.
When the Olympiads first started, competitors had to hold a full time job as there was no money to be made back then. Nowadays this is a very different world, a world where sponsors are willing to spend Millions on the right 'cash horse' and the media glorifies the winning athletes as near Gods.
And this is the thing, in no other arena can you be sure that you are the very best human being on earth apart from sports, that is. One could argue that so and so is the best actor/director/businessman, but in reality there is no definite proof. In sports, however it is a fact: you are the fastest/strongest human being on the planet. And the world is watching.
It is near impossible for me to excuse Armstrong or Pistorius's behaviours, but a part of me wonders whether such public adoration could damage individuals with a propensity for psychological disorders such as blind anger.
'God-like belief in yourself?' Pistorius's tatoo (right) quotes the bible.
Corinthians 9:26-27.
'Therefore I do not run like someone running aimlessly; I do not fight like a boxer beating the air. No, I strike a blow to my body and make it my slave so that after I have preached to others, I myself will not be disqualified for the prize.'
Picture: Reuters/ Mark Rossi
Before the 2012 Paralympics, the media had hyped up Oscar Pistorius's performance to the point that it was his and everyone's belief that there could be no other winner. That belief came crashing down when Pistorius lost the 200m gold to Alan Oliveira. Pistorius was furious. He famously blamed Oliveira's legs and that it had been an 'unfair game'. It was that outburst that first alerted me to Pistorius's volatile predisposition and it was that very outburst which came to mind when I first heard of his girlfriend's tragic death.
No one wants to believe that their sporting Gods are worse than perfect. No one believed Armstrong's teammates. They were publicly vilified, even declared 'unpatriotic' by the media for daring to raise doubts over his credibility.
In 2009 Pistorius was arrested and spent the night at a police station after a 19-year-old woman accused him of assault. No charges were brought due to lack of evidence, but clearly there had been a precedent.
It is sad to think that everyone was eager to dismiss his outbursts as merely the eccentric side of a passionate individual instead of someone in desperate need of professional help.
And there is also the celebrity side of those athletes. There were the interviews, the high-profile sponsorship, the fame. Everything they touched turned to gold and everyone associated with them was guaranteed to bask in that glory. Let's face it, who had heard of Reeva Steenkamp before she became involved with Pistorius? Prior to this, she had graced the cover of FHM once, but it was becoming Pistorius's other half which propelled her to stardom in her native South Africa. Now one could wonder at what cost?
A fame-hungry starlet and a superstar athlete with an inflated ego: recipe for murder?
Picture: Getty Images
It is now sadly too late for Pistorius and Steenkamp, but it is worth wondering where it all went wrong. As far as I am concerned, the jury is out as to whether Armstrong or Pistorius are truly remorseful, narcissist egoists or real psychopaths. Armstrong's apology seemed fake and worse, followed by a 'well, everyone was doing it' begged the question: 'did he truly meant it?'. And I couldn't help, but wonder whether Pistorius felt more sorry for himself than Steenkamp as he wept in court or maybe he truly did.
I guess we might never know. Perhaps the only lesson here is for us is to acknowledge that superstar athletes are not Gods but mere mortals.
Just like the rest of us.

Having sold all the copies we brought in initially before the move down from Glasgow to London, we have now received further stocks of the Allan ESV Study Bible – beautiful Highland Goatskin Bibles in the Personal size, in black or brown – at our new London premises. Dominique and I were lucky enough to see these in production at our London bindery when we visited back in October to take a look around.
As you can see, they are beautiful looking Bibles. We hope you like them as much as we do!

Southwestern criticized for admitting Muslim
Southwestern criticized for admitting Muslim
May 22 2014 by Gary K. Ledbetter, Southern Baptist Texan/Baptist Press
A Palestinian Muslim who assisted
Southwestern Baptist Theological Seminary
's Gezer archaeological project in Israel was admitted to the school's Ph.D. in archaeology program, in an apparent exception to the seminary's admissions policy.
Seminary President
Paige Patterson
told the Southern Baptist Texan on May 16 that the student enrolled at Southwestern last year because "he had no other options for Ph.D. work in his field" and because Patterson hoped to win him to saving faith.
Patterson had admitted three other non-Christian students to schools he led over nearly four decades; all came to Christ during their tenure as students, he told the Texan in a phone interview. One, a former Syrian Orthodox priest, was saved during his second semester at Southwestern, after chapel, and has since married and become a professor at
Baylor University
Patterson said he granted this most recent exception after taking counsel from other seminary administrators but that "the final decision was mine alone."
Paige Patterson
"We required that the student would agree with our moral standards while a student at Southwestern. It was no problem for him," Patterson added.
Seminary trustees were not advised prior to the exception being granted but were briefed on the situation in a letter sent from Patterson on May 16.
Steven James
, Southwestern trustee chairman and pastor of Trinity Baptist Church in Lake Charles, La., told the Texan on Monday that the trustee executive committee has a scheduled meeting in September and will "discuss this issue and will deal with it accordingly at that time."
"That is the role and responsibility of the trustees," James said. "I have a concern, obviously, about the spiritual condition of the young man in question; we don't want to do anything to jeopardize that. And then from the executive committee meeting in September we will make any adjustments that need to be made."
"If it needs to come to the full board, it will come to the full board," he added.
James said he has not received any other information about the student's enrollment except what was contained in Patterson's letter and had not spoken with Patterson about it.
Wade Burleson
, an Oklahoma blogger and pastor who had disagreed with Southwestern's leadership on other occasions, brought the matter to light in a post dated May 16 and titled "Southwestern Baptist Islamic Theological Seminary and the Center for Cultural Engagement and Firing." Burleson, pastor of Emmanuel Baptist Church, Enid, Okla., mentioned in the blog post a recent and unrelated faculty dismissal, though without any details. Burleson later removed the last name of the Muslim student from his blog.
In the letter to trustees, Patterson wrote of the student: "[He] is a peace loving man who worked several years with us at Tel Gezer. Finishing his M.A. in Archeology at a Jordanian university, he had few options if any in Israel or Jordan. He asked about our program. He agreed to abide by all our moral standards, which he has done. He is also open to professors and students.
"Unfortunately, the story released is not really about [the student], about whom the author cares little as is indicated by placing him at risk. The author is constantly on my case along with his following and much frustrated that he has enjoyed so little success," Patterson wrote.
Patterson also expressed concern for the student's perception of Christians because of the incident and also that trustees would be unfairly blamed for something "of which you are not guilty."
"... I have made it clear to all that this was my decision. No one else should be blamed. I am answerable to the faculty, to the Board and to you for all that I do including this."
Patterson closed his letter by asking the trustees to pray for the student, "that this will not turn him away from the Way."
On the admission section of its website, the school says it "assumes the student has been identified as a prospective minister by announced intent, proven conduct in accordance with Christian standards set forth in the Bible, active church involvement, and unqualified approval from the church where they are currently members. Among the required credentials for graduate-level courses are "a mature Christian character," "evidence a desire for Christian ministry (shown through the application process)," "a record of active church service," and "promise of continued intellectual and spiritual growth."
Also, "Applicants must demonstrate church membership and active church involvement to apply for admission to the seminary. Active membership and involvement in a local church is also required of all students for continued enrollment," the website says.
Rabbi Herbert Waller
of Louisville, Ky., earned a degree at Southern Baptist Theological Seminary in the years of moderate leadership, and the wife of Waller's successor "at one time had considered enrolling in Southern's doctoral program before the seminary's change in theological direction," according to an Oct. 26, 1999 story in Baptist Press.
Prior to becoming Southwestern's eighth president in 2003, Patterson served as president of Southeastern Baptist Theological Seminary in Wake Forest, N.C. from 1992-2003, and before that was president of Criswell College in Dallas for 17 years.

AJ Wang Foundation was established as a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization in November, 2008 to provide funding to various educational institutions to support students. The Foundation is led by a couple who immigrated to the U. S. to pursue the "American Dream." It is through hard work and their will to overcome financial obstacles that they have become successful entrepreneurs. As their life-long goal to "give back" to the communities that supported them to realize their dreams, they established the Foundation to support those with the greatest need. The Foundation is currently supported and staffed by volunteers.
The Scholarship Fund, a component of the AJ Wang Foundation, was established in 2013. The Scholarship Fund also receives donations from others wishing to participate in "giving back" in the same manner as the founders of the organization. Within these last five years, the Scholarship Fund has granted over 100 community college students scholarships totaling $430,000. Over 65% of these students have transferred to 4-year colleges or universities or secured employment.
The Scholarship Fund is targeting students attending identified community colleges in the Southern California area, starting with Los Angeles County. The awarded community colleges now have expanded to Ventura and northern Orange Counties. The Scholarship Fund provides scholarships for up to three consecutive years for students attending one or more of the designated community colleges. The scholarship can be used for tuition, fees, books, housing, transportation and/or food.

Funds are disbursed on a semester to semester basis in order to monitor continuous attendance and satisfactory academic progress. Students must provide proof which includes transcripts from the previous semester and full-time registration for the subsequent semester. Recipients of the scholarships provide testimonies, as requested, on how the money is spent to support them to realize their dreams.
