Here is a sobering or inspiring news for "weekend warriors"; according to new research from a study done at Washington University School of Medicine in Missouri people eat more on Saturdays and exercise less on Sundays resulting in a positive calorie balance that may lead to weight gain in non dieters and slowed or stopped weight loss for dieters.
What to do? Be mindful of your weekend intake and fully enjoy the time you have to put towards creative and exciting new ways to exercise; take a class, go for a hike, tackle yard and housework with an increased vigor and zeal. Remember daily exercise has another wonderful "side effect" of lowering your risk for many types of cancer including colon, liver, and pancreatic.
If you are concerned about being sore after exercise..ahh, that is where a great session of therapeutic downtime can be employed in your Human Touch massage chair-good for you!

Lind and his wife built house in 1887
John Lind
Born in Sweden in 1854, John Lind came to America in 1868. His family settled in Minnesota. Shortly after, he suffered an accident and his left hand was amputated. Because of his injury, he applied himself in academic pursuits. He graduated from Red Wing High School in 1872. He later moved to New Ulm and taught school. He earned a law degree and opened a law office in New Ulm.
In 1886 Lind was elected to the U.S. House of Representatives. He was 32 and the first Swedish-born American to be elected to the House. He served three terms.
He and wife Alice build the Lind House in 1887. The house was the center of social and political life in New Ulm at the end of the 19th century, and it was quite an honor to be invited to the congressman's home for dinner party or a reception.
After serving for six years in the House, Lind returned to New Ulm in 1893 to resume his law practice.
In 1898, he served as a lieutenant in the Army during the Spanish-American War. The fact he was accepted into the military as an amputee shows how persuasive he was and the clout he had as a former congressman. He received special permission from President McKinley to enlist. He remains the only person to be accepted in any branch of the U.S. military as an amputee.
When the war was over, he returned to New Ulm, ran for governor in 1898, and was elected. When his term was over in 1901, the family sold the house and moved to Minneapolis.

Free breakfast is a hit
FAIRMONT – Every weekday at 8:15 a.m., students at Fairmont Elementary are just sitting down to breakfast.
They have 30 minutes to complete their meal, which consists of milk, juice and an alternating main portion – such as crackers – before settling in for six more hours of study.
Breakfast has been served at the school for years, but has had relatively low participation. To increase it, the meal is being served in the classrooms and to every student.
School administrators believe feeding students breakfast every day gets them ready to make the most of their class time, reduces complaints of upset stomachs, and keeps them from acting out.
But there is a financial benefit as well, and it not because parents are being charged for these meals.
Although it may seem counterintuitive, preparing and serving nearly the entire student body not only doesn't cost the district anything, it actually increases its bottom line.
The federal government reimburses the school district for meals served to students meeting specific income guidelines – a program known as free and reduced lunch. Those students are eligible to eat breakfasts for free at school, for which the district is reimbursed at above the cost of preparing and purchasing the food.
With a free and reduced lunch rate nearing 50 percent of the students at the elementary school, it was determined that feeding every student would generate enough to cover the costs, plus an additional $30,000 to $40,000 for the food service program, depending on how many students actually participate.
With 900 students in the school, the program debuted with participation in the mid-700 range, but three weeks into the school year more students are involved.
"We have almost 800 kids eating breakfast here every day," said assistant principal Michelle Rosen.
Each teacher is using the 30-minute time slot in whatever way is best for his or her classroom.
Third-grade teacher Joice Forster asks her students to work on a morning assignment while they eat. Across the hall in Betty Eagan's fourth-grade classroom, students take turns presenting a simulated newscast, including current events, sports and weather information.
Younger students are not sitting idle during their meal time either.
Kindergarten teacher Kari Duehlmeyer has her students practicing their counting and sharing with other students.
Duehlmeyer admitted she had some reservations about how the program would look at first, but feels it is running quite smoothly.
Rosen said Duehlmeyer was not the only teacher who had concerns about how chaotic breakfast time could be, but most are finding the experience a good one for students.
Fourth-grade teacher Heidi Luhmann teaches a looped class, meaning she is teaching the same students this year as last year, when she taught them third grade.
She has seen a difference in students when they have breakfast.
"Since I loop with my class, I know most of my students pretty well," she said. "Last year, I had a few students that were always complaining of not feeling well, especially in the morning, and asking to go to the office. This year, those students have not asked once. I think that possibly their problem was that they were having hunger pains last year."
Students don't have to take the breakfast if they are not hungry; if they decide not to eat they are encouraged to save the food for a snack later in the day or after school.
In one classroom, a group of three students all had different experiences with the breakfast. One said he didn't take it at all because he already ate at home. Another said he eats breakfast at home and at school. A third said she has never eaten breakfast at home because she is responsible for getting herself off to school and doesn't have time in the morning.
The non-instructional time at the beginning of the day provides the district with time to institute another program. Dean Alex Schmidt has spearheaded a mentoring program with specialists – music, art, and physical education teachers.
Since these teachers don't have classrooms to monitor during the breakfast "zero" hour, they have been assigned grade levels in which to begin mentoring.
The specialists are responsible for pulling out small groups of students during the breakfast time to eat with in a more formal setting.
Schmidt said each teacher does it a little differently, but they may take the group of six or eight students to the cafeteria or classroom every day for a week, sit down together for breakfast, and just talk and learn soft skills, like manners and having a conversation with an adult.
"It is a way for [the students] to meet with a caring adult," Schmidt said.
The students aren't targeted for the mentoring time, and every student should have a chance to be involved in the smaller group.
"From the specialists point of view it is great," Schmidt said. "They get to sit down and talk with the kids, which they don't always get a chance to do."
Schmidt envisions the mentoring groups to be a time for students to begin helping each other, the fifth-grade group could use the time to go help a kindergarten class, for example.
Rosen said giving students the responsibility during the breakfast time is crucial.
About 15 years ago, Rosen said the district tried serving breakfasts to students in the classroom and it was a difficult process. It only lasted one year before the meals were moved to the cafeteria.
Students at that time weren't expected to clean up after themselves, and the responsibility went to the teacher.
This time around, students are expected to clean up their spaces and take care of the garbage.
The district's parent teacher group, Parents and Educators Teaming Together, purchased special cleaning cloths for all the classrooms, so students can take care of spills without chemicals.
Schmidt says it is too early to tell if the breakfast program will lower the number of referrals teacher make to the office, but noted they have had few problems between students in the morning. The nurse's office has seen fewer students as well.
Rosen said the number of students complaining of stomach troubles has decreased from previous years.

Glad to see Hagel confirmed
To the editor:
In regard to your story about former U.S. Sen. Chuck Hagel (R-Neb.) being confirmed by the U.S. Senate (2-27-2013), I want to thank The Journal for putting the article on the front page, on the top, and on the left side. I lived in Nebraska for 14 years and because of my involvement in politics (bother major parties), I got to know Chuck Hagel in 1996. He was campaigning for the U.S. Senate at that time. He won. Chuck is the kind of guy who tries to make friends with those who disagree with him on the issues. Also, I can tell you that I've got strong "gut feelings" that Hagel is fully qualified to be Pentagon head.
I'm a conservative political thinker, but I applaud the fact that all of the voting Democrats voted "Aye" to confirm Hagel (along with four thoughtful Republicans). I?can also applaud the Democrats for their constant support of AMTRAK inter city railroad passenger service. However, on the AMTRAK issue, Democrats can count on the support of several dozen Republicans in both houses of Congress.

In previous fishery monitoring posts we explored a variety of obstacles to collecting accurate and timely data from vessels in the Chesapeake Bay, West Coast and New England fisheries. These fisheries don't just have monitoring challenges in common. They also share a solution: each region is piloting an electronic monitoring (EM) or electronic reporting (ER) system intended to make data collection more comprehensive, flexible and affordable. These are not the only regions exploring how new technologies can be integrated into fishery monitoring plans. In fact, all eight of the U.S. fishery management regions have, or are currently testing EM or ER tools.
In 2013, the National Fish and Wildlife Foundation awarded a Fisheries Innovation Grant to Dorothy Lowman to convene a National Electronic Monitoring Workshop. Lowman is a natural resource consultant and Chair of the Pacific Fishery Management Council. EDF cosponsored the workshop, viewing it as a linchpin in bringing fishery leaders together to identify common challenges, and common solutions, to monitoring—one of the most important elements of fisheries management. The workshop facilitated information exchange across regions and helped address outstanding challenges in implementing cost-effective monitoring systems. After more than seven months of planning by a Steering Committee that included fishing industry, managers, monitoring companies and EDF, the National EM Workshop was held January 8th and 9th in Seattle, Washington. More than 150 fishery managers and stakeholders from across the country attended the workshop along with select representatives from Canada, Denmark and Australia. Read More

About the Author: Ambassador Charles S. Shapiro serves as the Senior Coordinator of the State Department's Western Hemisphere Affairs Free Trade Task Force.
I spent last week in Colombia -- in Bogotá (the capital), Medellín (the former murder capital of the world, now a prosperous manufacturing center), and Quibdó (the capital of the poorest state in Colombia and an area which is predominately Afro-Colombian).
Workers on flower farms in the outskirts of Bogotá were pleased that their pre-school children were in day care on the farms where they worked. Campesinos -- farmworkers -- from around Medellín were improving yields and the quality of their products with the help of the company buying their crops. I saw displaced, demobilized fighters from the guerrillas and the paramilitary organizations working in a variety of jobs. In Quibdó, a "Justice House" was helping ordinary people obtain access to social services and resolve the problems that affect their lives.
In Medellín, the municipal government has built world class public libraries in the toughest neighborhoods and extended public transportation through two cable car lines up the steep hillsides to the poorest slums. That's something I haven't seen anywhere else in Latin America.
I don't want to say there are no problems in Colombia. Of course there are.
But Colombians are proud in what they have achieved and are confident about their future.
Business groups kept asking me to explain why the U.S. Congress hasn't approved the U.S.-Colombia trade agreement. "Don't they understand that our exports already enter the United States duty free?" They are convinced that Colombia will have more jobs and a sounder economy if U.S. products have the same duty free access to Colombia that their exports have to the United States.
We exported $8.5 billion to Colombia in 2007 and $6.7 billion in just the first six months of this year. I worry that other countries will take this market from us while the U.S.-Colombia trade agreement is caught up in our domestic politics.

This is very encouraging news.
I think there's another factor to add to the economic equation: the improvement in the situation will continue to allow development in the ecotourism sector, something that would not only boost the economy, but would have side benefits such as providing an incentive for rainforest preservation. There was an article in USA Today a while back that some further information on this topic. I think this area of development has the potential to become important over the next decade.
I definitely agree with you on the trade issue. Free trade is the way to go. It will be interesting to watch developments. It's good to see encouraging news at the moment!

BRE in Germany writes:
This is a real nice post about Columbia, short and to the point. Part of the problem with many members of the U.S. Congress and the general population in America is that we have been bombarded with so much bad news about Columbia for decades that it is hard to imagine there is any progress in that society. Another problem is that too many people have written the country off and no longer care.
We need to re-think how we deal with our neighbors to the South (the Caribbean countries, Central and South America) and we need to vastly improve our knowledge about one another. It should start with better education about this region in our schools and universities and be extended to education programs right across our respective societies for people of all ages. The U.S. mainstream media coverage of Columbia and other countries located in Central and South America could use some improvement as well.
In the meantime it will be left to 'us Netizens' to report world news that the big boys don't bother with or care about. Checkout Harvard University's 'Global Voices Online' project for many more stories like this one about Columbia and the rest of our southern neighbors.

U.S. Beach Teams Taking Paris Grand Slam by Storm

E-Mail: email@example.com
COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. (June 19, 2008) - U.S. beach volleyball teams are taking Paris by storm this weekend as four women's teams have advanced directly from pool play to the second round while four men's teams remain alive in pool play at the US$600,000 Henkel Grand Chelem, a SWATCH FIVB Grand Slam event.
Leading the way among the U.S. women was the top-ranked team of Misty May-Treanor (Costa Mesa, Calif.) and Kerri Walsh (Santa Clara, Calif.), who won all three of their pool play matches without dropping a set and will play Austria's 18th-seeded Doris and Stefanie Schwaiger in Friday's second round.
Fourth-seeded Nicole Branagh (Orinda, Calif.) and Elaine Youngs (El Toro, Calif.) also breezed through pool play without a set loss and will play Georgia's Cristine Santanna and Andrezza das Chagas, ranked 23rd, on Friday.
Seventh-seeded Jen Boss (San Juan Capistrano, Calif.) and April Ross (Costa Mesa, Calif.) will face Australia's 12th-ranked Tamsin Barnett and Natalie Cook. Tyra Turner (Fort Meyers Beach, Fla.) and Rachel Wacholder (Laguna Beach, Calif.), seeded 11th, will face Belgium's Liesbet Van Breedam and Liesbeth Mouha, seeded 20th.
Turner and Wacholder received a wild card entry directly into the main draw in Paris and so did not have to play in the qualifier bracket.
In men's bracket pool play, the third-ranked team of Phil Dalhausser (Ormond Beach, Fla.) and Todd Rogers (Santa Barbara, Calif.) won both of their first two matches without losing a set. The 12th-ranked team of Matt Fuerbringer (Costa Mesa, Calif.) and Casey Jennings (Las Vegas, Nev.) also won their first two matches.
The eighth-seeded U.S. men's team of Gibb (Bountiful, Utah) and Sean Rosenthal (Redondo Beach, Calif.) was upset in its second pool-play match by Georgia's Renato Gomes and Jorge Terceiro, seeded 24th, and will need to beat France's ninth-ranked Guilherm Deulofeu and Yannick Salvetti on Friday if it hopes to advance.
Stein Metzger (Honolulu, Hawai'i) and Mark Williams (Los Angeles, Calif.), who had to play in the qualifier to advance to the main draw and are ranked 18th, also went 1-1 on Thursday and must do well Friday against Latvia's Aleksandrs Samoilous and Martins Plavins, seeded 31st.
A victory at a Grand Slam event is worth 30 percent more points toward Olympic qualifying than SWATCH FIVB open events and the prize money is also greater.

Topic: How to locate a "rogue" method?
I'm having problems with an ActiveRecord table field called "timeout". It appears that ActiveRecord classes already contain a private method called "timeout" that is not an attribute reader. Usually ActiveRecord redefines the "timeout" method when it creates the reader methods and then all is fine, but it doesn't always do this and in those cases the magic via the missed_method exception doesn't work and I get a "wrong number of arguments (0 for 1)" error. Ughhh.
My question: is there a way to figure out where the "timeout" method comes from? I don't see any way to query the method for its source file/line, for example. Any other tricks?

Finch lands aren't on APA agenda this month
RAY BROOK – The state Adirondack Park Agency won't take action on the classification of 21,000 acres of newly acquired former Finch, Pruyn and Co. timberlands in the central Adirondacks at its monthly meeting in Ray Brook Thursday.
The topic, which has dominated the APA board's last two monthly meetings, is not even on the agenda.
The agency's State Land Committee will not meet this month, APA spokesman Keith McKeever wrote in an email.
"APA staff are diligently responding to public comment and conducting all required analysis to prepare the Final Environmental Impact Statement in support of the state land classification for the Finch lands," McKeever wrote. "This is a very demanding and complex process. We are being thorough and taking the time necessary to reach a recommendation that will be in the best interest of the Adirondack Park."
Several commissioners said at the close of their two-day meeting last month that they're eager to begin the debate over the classification options, which range from wilderness to wild forest, but they also don't want to be rushed into one of the biggest decisions the agency has made in years. Some said they should wait until November, since the board has yet to get a classification recommendation from its staff and still hasn't seen APA staff's response to the huge volume of public comment on the classification proposals.
The agency still has a full agenda for its meeting this week, which begins at 9 a.m. Thursday with APA Executive Director Terry Martino's monthly report.
At 9:30 a.m., the Public Awareness and Communication Committee will convene for a panel discussion to mark the 40th anniversary of the Adirondack Park Agency Act. The panelists include former APA Executive Director Richard Persico, former Adirondack Park Local Government Review Board counsel Andrew Halloran, former chairman for the Task Force on the Adirondack Park Agency Daniel Smith and former agency community planner, staff attorney and Department of State designee Richard Hoffman.
At 1:15 p.m., the Regulatory Programs Committee will hear an appeal of the Agency's Aug. 9 Notice of Complete Permit Application for a new private airport on existing agricultural fields in the town of Willsboro. Depending on the outcome of the appeal, the project could be presented to the Regulatory Program Committee Friday morning. The committee will also consider a subdivision of roughly 60 acres into seven lots in the town of Putnam, Washington County.
At 3 p.m., the Regulatory Programs Committee will re-convene to consider granting a shoreline structure setback variance for a 544-square foot addition in the town of Franklin.
At 3:45 p.m., the Legal Affairs Committee will hear a briefing from agency staff on a proposal to allow the agency to issue timely authorizations for emergency actions.
On Friday at 9 a.m., the Park Ecology Committee will hear an informational presentation on phase one of an ongoing Environmental Protection Agency funded wetlands project. The committee will then hear a first reading of draft agency guidelines and policy for the use of the herbicide Renovate and Renovate OTF to manage Eurasian watermilfoil.
At 10:45 a.m., the Regulatory Programs Committee, depending on the outcome of the appeal of the Willsboro airport project, may assemble to determine its approvability.
The full agency will convene at 11:15 a.m. for committee reports, Local Government Review Board comment, public and member comment.
Meeting materials can be downloaded from the Agency's website – apa.ny.gov – where a live webcast of the meeting is also available.
The next APA meeting is scheduled for Nov. 14 and 15 in Ray Brook.

No matter what we accomplish in flight training, nothing (it seems) quite eclipses the ability to nail a landing. Is it any wonder? Landing the airplane is probably the toughest part of flying it. (If you disagree, feel free to do so in the Comments section.)
So it was that our January digital poll asked the question in the title of this blog. The idea for the poll was sparked by the student pilot who wrote Rod Machado to ask for guidance on how to control the airplane during rollout. Rod was puzzled, and so he contacted the student to ask for some additional details. It turns out the guy had a shoe size 13-1/2. Aha! Rod theorized that the student was having difficulty properly placing his feet on the cockpit floorboard so as not to accidentally touch a brake pedal.
Mystery solved, I wondered what other types of problems with landing plague us. I could've guessed the outcome, but here are the unofficial poll results to bear it out: It's the flare.
- 71 percent of respondents chose the flare as their problem area.
- 14 percent of respondents said it was the sight picture.
- 7 percent said the rollout.

BTW...I did try searching for this issue but I couldn't find anything on the subject
I just pop them and pinch the hole closed.
Yeah but is that a normal characteristic?
Sweet thanks Pete! Yes the rest of the dough ball was pretty spot on as fas consistency. It was only that one spot. Its stretched real nice. I'll look into the kneading process and be a little more alert while its in the KA and I'll do a little extra kneading by hand, I'm guessing. If it happens again I'll bring down the % of yeast a little.

Acupuncture relieves IBS pain
Source: http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/22837879
Patients with irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) are characterized by abnormal central processing with altered brain activation in response to visceral nociceptive signals. The effect of electroacupuncture (EA) on IBS patients is unclear. The study is set to study the effect of EA on brain activation during noxious rectal distension in IBS patients using a randomized sham-controlled model.
Thirty IBS-diarrhea patients were randomized to true electroacupuncture or sham acupuncture. Functional MRI was performed to evaluate cerebral activation at the following time points: (1) baseline when there was rectal distension only, (2) rectal distension during application of EA, (3) rectal distension after cessation of EA and (4) EA alone with no rectal distension. Group comparison was made under each condition using SPM5 program.
Rectal distension induced significant activation of the anterior cingulated cortex, prefrontal cortex, thalamus, temporal regions and cerebellum at baseline. During and immediately after EA, increased cerebral activation from baseline was observed in the anterior cingulated cortex, bilateral prefrontal cortex, thalamus, temporal regions and right insula in both groups. However, true electroacupuncture led to significantly higher activation at right insula, as well as pulvinar and medial nucleus of the thalamus when compared to sham acupuncture.
We postulate that acupuncture might have the potential effect of pain modulation in IBS by 2 actions: (1) modulation of serotonin pathway at insula and (2) modulation of mood and affection in higher cortical center via ascending pathway at the pulvinar and medial nucleus of the thalamus.

This book contains New Blood Live In London DVD and Blu-ray, New Blood (studio album), Live Blood (highlights recorded at the New Blood Live In London show), housed in a 60-page hardback photobook.
New Blood's journey started almost three years prior to the release, when Peter Gabriel began working with John Metcalfe on Peter's original orchestral project, Scratch My Back, where he covered others' songs to a symphonic accompaniment. The successful marriage between Peter's voice, John and Peter's arrangements and the brilliance of the orchestra led to rapturously received live shows. These then precipitated the New Blood record, which itself begat the New Blood Live In London shows, and the resulting films.
This Deluxe Book is a visual and musical document to that project. Opening with an introduction written by Peter, the beautifully presented book features over 200 photographs taken by Real World photographer, York Tillyer, with a contribution from Italian photographer, Armando Gallo. With access to all the recording and mixing sessions, the rehearsals, the shows and behind the scenes, York has created a unique collection of images, giving a fascinating insight into the New Blood project, from start to finish.

Pilot Program Offers Roadside Assistance To Electric Vehicles
AAA is launching a pilot program in six U.S. markets to provide roadside assistance to electric vehicles. One such market is Portland, one of three on the West Coast.
For years, the auto club has provided its members assistance in the form of gasoline to make it to the next gas station. With some 1.2 million vehicles expected to be on the road by 2015, AAA is getting ahead of the curve.
The truck that will offering a charge to stranded drivers who have run out will run on compressed natural gas in Oregon. In other markets, delivery vehicles will operate using a variety of alternative energy technologies. Marie Dodds, Director of Public and Governmental Affairs for AAA says the organization will evaluate which works best during the pilot project phase. The trucks will also be equipped to handle traditional services such as battery testing, jump starts and flat repair.
Google studies indicate that by 2030, 90 percent of new vehicles sold will either be hybrids or electrics.

Victory! Angel's Gate Founder Charged
Update: On May 15, 2012, officials filed 17 additional charges of cruelty to animals against Susan Marino, based on evidence gathered as a result of PETA's undercover investigation. Animals like Tuxie—the cat whose gaping neck and head wound Marino picked at and who, PETA learned, died last fall after suffering terribly for many months—will finally be granted a chance at justice. Marino now faces a total of 22 cruelty charges as well as a drug-related charge.
The Delaware County, New York, District Attorney's Office has filed charges of cruelty to animals as well as a drug-related charge against Susan Marino, the woman responsible for the horrific suffering of hundreds of animals at Angel's Gate, Inc., which she founded, operates, and dares to call "a hospice and rehabilitation center."
PETA's investigation of this hellhole exposed the daily neglect and terrible suffering of disabled, elderly, and ailing animals, many of whom had been shipped to Marino by well-meaning but severely uninformed individuals and agencies, including the New York Center for Animal Care and Control (NYCACC), which doomed Malcolm the Chihuahua and hundreds of other animals to die slowly at Angel's Gate through its "New Hope" program.
PETA had provided the District Attorney with the evidence that our investigator gathered while volunteering at Angel's Gate. Our investigator saw Marino allow animals to suffer, sometimes for weeks, from treatable conditions as well as terminal illnesses without providing veterinary care, medication, or pain relief. Paralyzed animals dragged themselves until they developed bloody ulcers. Animals developed urine scald after being left in soaked diapers for up to two days. Dehydrated animals were denied water, and others were forced to stay outside in freezing temperatures. The bodies of dead animals were left among those of the living for days.
While Marino has been charged, the nightmare is not over for the animals at Angel's Gate, as they have not yet been seized. Please help us ensure their welfare and the safety of future victims by joining us in urging the New York State Attorney General to revoke Angel's Gate's nonprofit status and ensure that the animals are removed from Marino's custody. Please click here to send a letter to the Attorney General, and please, when your animal companions become elderly or ill, let them live out their final days with dignity in the comfort of their own homes, surrounded by their families, not at the mercy of a conniving stranger.

shut this down and take good care of the poor animals!
Esa desgraciada mujer debería estar entre rejas, por crueldad animal y por estafa, porque ha ganado millones a costa de estos pobres animalitos! Todo lo que ella quiere es el dinero. ¡Ojalá que la encarcelen de por vida!
i can not believe affter watching the videos, how thoose animals can remain there!!!!when are they going to take thoose animals out of that prison!!isnt 22 counts of abuse enough for them to go in?? what are they waiting for??
I hope the poor animals that are still alive find some happiness.
sickening .People are evil and these people are insane. ROSEBUD i agre with you 100 percent. Im glad u sending letter to the attorney general. This woman is pure evil
I could not watch the terible vision of these poor "furry babies" being treated in such a way. My hope is that this will in some way happen to Susan Marino. Prison is too good for her!!! What a sick individual this person really is. I hope that be the time I write this, these poor babies have been rescued, and are being treated in a way that they deserve, and by that I mean NOT BEING PUT TO SLEEP!!!!!! But are living with the love and respect they deserve in a forever home.
This is so disgusting what she did to these animals. I have always, and will always be an a HUGE animal lover. I wish i knew what i could do to make a diffrence for animals but im only 17 with no money to help.
Humans are supposed to have evolved to a 'higher degree' – I many times wonder why they have evolved to such a high degree of cruelty. AS humans we should have the moral responsibility of helping our fellow creatures as well as human beings. I cry many silent tears for all the suffering humans put animals through for different reasons. How horrific – sometimes its even for entertainment! Somebody help animals – quickly! I am suffering with them and feel such anquish.
I am sickened by the human race… an eye for an eye… Stick them in a hole and throw dirt on them and leave them to suffer and die…
stop dit soort "mensen". Er moet veel strenger worden opgetreden voor dit soort misdaden.
OMG!!! How horrifying was that video. My heart aches & with tears I cry for all those poor furbaby's.How anyone can be so heartless is beyond my wildest comprehension. The suffering she put those poor poor animals through she should be fined & have to spend yrs in jail with only a pan of water. My heart aches for all those poor souls that are still suffering becauce of Susan Marino!!!! & their still suffering because their not out of there yet!!!I'm sending a letter to the Attorney General.They need out ASAP!!! Praying for the poor animals that are left that they make it <3 <3 <3
Thank you PETA for stoping this woman. This was so sad and I feel so bad for those animals. May they rest in peace
Beware humane organizations that tell you about shipping off unwanted animals to be adopted out somewhere else. We have one.
I just wish people didn't hurt animals..
Thank you PETA and all those involved in exposing the cruelty and abuse here and making it end. Of course, these animals need homes now so if people can volunteer to foster, do so here and spread the word. I am able to foster cats and you can email me.
I truly cannot believe the cruelty humans are capable of when it comes to animals. Everytime I read something like this, or hear about the the bear baiting, shark finning etcetera, I cry. The horror of it all is beyond my comprehension. Thank-you for doing something about this woman P.E.T.A.

Finally this women has been brought to justice!! though she should be punished more severely as she is responsible for the extreme pain and suffering of so many inoccent animals.
People like this should be arrested and fined and put in jail for life, in a small cribe size cage, and put the same painful existance on her for the rest of her life, eye for an eye , and justice should take place, otherwise this sickining human race will continue to strive, and this will keep this happening, the law should be doing somethi.g right now to help these precious animals, i love animals, they all are coparible to a 3to 5 yr. Old child, thats a fact,, can u see a 3 yr old. Going through this sick exsistance,? Well, u just did! 🙁 its everywhere! I cry, it twists My mind apart, i wish every person who harms animals should pay in details, for every bit of pain they had done, but most of all, somehow this must end
Take note: For someone who is an animal hoarder, starting a sanctuary is a perfect way for them to continue their sickness, unexposed. There are many well-run rescue groups. But just don't assume all of them are legit. Thank you PETA, I am a member. I give as much as am able.
Animal cruelty should be against the law!I have 4 rescue dogs and I treat them like they are a part of a family!

New legislation could help municipalities
State legislators deserve credit for two proposals that were passed Friday. They will not solve the financial problems of local municipalities, but they are a step in the right direction.
In an agreement publicly announced by Gov. Andrew Cuomo and legislative leaders June 18, they agreed to create a state Financial Restructuring Board to advise local governments on how to cut expenses and streamline services.
Any municipality, not including New York City, deemed fiscally eligible by the board would be eligible to request review by and assistance from the board. The board will make recommendations to these municipalities on improving fiscal stability, management and the delivery of public services, and to provide awards of up to $5 million per municipality through the Local Government Performance Efficiency Program.
While streamlining government is great, a key for local municipalities – now and in the future – will be holding down costs.
Officials statewide have complained for years that one key problem involves binding arbitration – chiefly, the arbitration panels that reward public employees despite the fiscal problems of the municipalities they work in.
Despite tough financial times for taxpayers statewide, arbitration panels have given out base salary increases of 3.6 percent a year from 2003 to 2007 and 3.3 percent from 2008 to 2012, according to a May study by the Empire Center for New York State Policy. Only four out of 136 arbitrations included a pay freeze in any year. Most employers sought cost savings on health insurance benefits, but less than half the arbitration awards included such changes, the study shows.
Bills endorsed by Gov. Cuomo also were approved by the Senate and Assembly on Friday will force arbitration panels to consider a municipality's ability to pay as long as the municipality is deemed to be financially distressed.
The bill states a municipality is financially distressed if it has a fund balance of less than 5 percent of its budget and a full-value property tax rate greater than 75 percent of similar municipalities over five years. According to the Empire Center, 56 of 61 New York cities and nearly half of the villages with a police department and paid firefighters qualify as fiscally distressed.
Locally, Franklin County was rated the third-most fiscally strained municipality in New York, according to a study recently released by the state comptroller's office. Recent progress in relations with Mohawk tribal leaders could result in overdue tax and casino payments and thereby lessen the strain significantly, but that won't mean the county will be sitting pretty.
Likewise, the change to the binding arbitration process and the financial restructuring board are not going to solve any municipalities' fiscal problems by themselves.
However, they are positive steps that could help local municipalities and taxpayers. It is up to our local governments to try to take advantage of what is being offered.

Tour a 47-Story Tower with Interiors by Lenny Kravitz
12 things he can't live withoutMore
Like the man himself, Lenny Kravitz's music is soulful, cool, and utterly seductive. The same can be said for his interiors. The Grammy Award–winning rocker—currently on tour for his ninth album, Black and White America, and acting in two upcoming films, now that The Hunger Games has made him a movie star—has found the time to establish his own thriving interior design firm. "Creativity is creativity as far as I'm concerned," says Kravitz, whose projects have ranged from designs for a 47-story Miami tower to chandeliers for Swarovski. His dream is to launch his own lifestyle brand. "It would go from fashion to furniture," says Kravitz, who cites Ralph Lauren and Giorgio Armani as inspirations. "I want to do cutlery, plates, lamps, chairs, sofas, and beds—I mean, everything. I'm working on it now."
Click through our slideshow to see Kravitz's favorite things then check out his interiors for the Paramount Bay.

Thanks Mark, I'll check out the Thermopen.I was thinking an IR thermometer would be good for measuring oven temps.
IR only reads the surface temp.....do as Mark says.Also, you can extended ferment with a coleman cooler an ice bottles...takes some trials though.
From what I've read, temps in the low 60s are good for fermentation. As luck would have it, I have a heavily insulated room beneath my front porch that maintains a constant 63-64 with no ice required.

Flute World
America's #1 flute specialty house since 1983.
The Baroque Album for Four C Flutestranscriptions for David H. BaileyIncludes score and parts
*FINALIST in the 2004 NFA Newly-Published Music Competition.
The Baroque Album continues where The Renaissance Album ended, including 25 quartets, providing modern flute players with a wealth of music that spans the rich musical period known as the Baroque. While including music by the giants of the period (Corelli, Purcell, Vivaldi, Telemann, Handel and Bach), it also contains many pieces by less well-known but no less-competent composers . Continuing the tradition of music for 4 C flutes begun with The Renaissance Album, these works have been arranged to fit nicely within the flute's range and still retain as much of the original voicings and textures as possible.
Contents:Allemande and Gagliarda (Franck)Fili Mi, Absalon (Schutz)Intrada (Schein)Praeludium (Tunder)Overture (Cambert)Fantasia (Locke)Paseos (Cabanilles)Sonata La Graziani (Vitali)Deo (Blow)Preludio & Allemanda (Corelli)Minuet, Air & Allegro (Purcell)Der todtkranken (Kuhnau)Allegro from Sinfonia IV (Scarlatti)Fuga (Reiche)Allegro from Il Pastor Fido (Vivaldi)Largo and Allegro (Telemann)Sommeil, Rondo Tendre (Rameau)Grave & Allegro (Albicastro)Allegro (Handel)La Paix & La Rejouissance (Handel)Canon (Bach,JS)Kyrie, Gott Vater in Ewigkeit (Bach,JS)Contrapunctus IX (Bach,JS)Vivace (Graupner)Adagio and Allegro (Sammartini)

Jimmy, anyone, you should never eat raw flour or starter. It says so on the bag of flour there is bacteria in raw flour. The starter itself could be growing something that could really mess you up too. What good does tasting it do anyways, why take a chance. -Marc

RIO DE JANEIRO, Brazil (Aug. 18, 2007) - The U.S. Men's Sitting Volleyball team concluded a simple three set win over Costa Rica (25-8, 25-7, 25-10) to advance to the gold medal match on Sunday. The No. 1 seed U.S. (4-0) is setting its sights on No. 2 seed Brazil (3-1) to determine who gets to take home the gold and who settles for silver.
After a close match with Brazil the day before, the confident U.S. team easily defeated Costa Rica. Hugo Storer (Houston, Tex.) and Roderick Green (Edmond, Okla.) led the team, scoring 10 points each.
"Sometimes it is difficult to play a team like Costa Rica," said Storer. "But at the same time, you have to keep it up. With these kinds of games, you have to work on your basics in order to better prepare for the next game."
"It means a lot for some of us that are newer to the sport to get to play. It also gets us ready for game situations," Green said. "We were able to practice on different areas and I feel we are definitely ready for tomorrow."
In addition to his 10 points, Storer also led the team in assists with 16. Eric Duda (Edmond, Okla./Fort Lauderdale, Fla.) recorded 10 digs.
Those starting in the first set included Curtis Lease (Naperville, Ill.), Storer, Green, Edgar LaForest (Puerto Rico), Chris Seilkop (Deland, Fla.) and Brent Rasmussen (Omaha, Neb.).
Storer, Lease, and Rasmussen once again started in the second set, along with James Stuck (Edmond, Okla./New Kensington, Pa.), Jose Zabala (Puerto Rico), and Brad Johnson (Pompano Beach, Fla.). The final set was started by Lease, Stuck, Storer, Green, Duda, and Josh Franklin (Tomball, Texas). Matt Johnson (Omaha, Neb.) was the libero.
"We had to have this match in order to get to the gold medal," said Head Coach Bill Hamiter. "The nice thing about it was we didn't have to have the same intensity or energy as we would have needed in another match."
Now, there is only one match left. A gold medal means a trip to the 2008 Paralympics in Beijing, China.
The U.S. beat Brazil on Aug. 17 in three straight sets (25-20, 25-22, 28-26) handing Brazil its only loss during the tournament. The U.S. also beat Brazil in the 2006 Sitting Volleyball World Championships where the U.S. eventually finished ninth.
The World Championships were the only other opportunity to qualify for the Paralympics. The top three teams from that tournament automatically advanced. In total, eight teams are invited to attend the Paralympics in men's sitting volleyball - the top three from Worlds, the host country and a designated team from each zone. For Team USA's zone, the Parapan Am Games determine who gets to go.
"We are confident - we know we can beat Brazil," said Head Coach Bill Hamiter (Bethany, Okla.). "We didn't play one of our best matches when we played Brazil Friday, so now we can line-up all of the positives going into the match.
"The team has worked for three years to go to the Paralympics," added Hamiter. "To go three years for one match - it is huge."
Rasmussen agreed. "Tomorrow's match is a necessity in order to go to Beijing. We have been training for three years for one match. But, we are ready. We are really peaking at the right time."

Any suggestions (pokes moves abilities etc) or pokes that have great synergy (gastrona, magnemence, etc) are appriciated!! THANKS double-battles combos asked Sep 21, 2013 by EPICWIZARD13 But everybody knows about Beat Up/Justified and Anger Point/Frost Breath also... commented Sep 21, 2013 by trachy I meant that they are more common.

Please log in or register to answer this question. 3 Answers 2 votes Surf & Absorb Bulb/Storm Drain and co. or Discharge and Cell Battery/Lightningrod and co. This is a rather easy combo to run, and one if done right can have superb effectiveness. The strategy consists of one Pokemon possessing a move that hits all other Pokemon on the field and can have some beneficial affect for the partner. Its partner, either due to its ability or held item, either gains offensive ability or health as a result. Surf Surf is a spread move with hefty power and perfect accuracy, making it good on its own. However if used on a Pokemon carrying an absorb bulb, which boosts special attack one stage when hit with a water move, or that has the abilities water absorb, dry skin or storm drain. A partnership akin to this allows one to spam powerful surfs while also allowing for set-up in the fast paced doubles metagame. Notable Pairings Politoed (with surf and drizzle), and Swift Swim Kingdra with Absorb Bulb Politoed (with surf and drizzle), and Swift Swim Ludicolo with Absorb Bulb Any surf user with Gastrodon (storm drain) Any surf user (preferably drizzle politoed) with Dry Skin Toxicroak Discharge Like surf, discharge is a strong spread move, but it also comes with a good chance of paralysis. Cell Battery serves as the electrical equivalent of Absorb Bulb, with Electric resistant Pokemon holding cell battery as well as non-ground type Pokemon with Motor Drive, Volt Absorb or Lightningrod. Notable Pairings or Potential Pokemon Recipients: - Thundurus-T - Manectric - Seaking - Jolteon - Electrivire - Lanturn Users: - Thundurus-T - Manectric - Jolteon - Lanturn - Rotom (all forms) - Magnezone In general, straegies using surf ten to be more effective, as the move gains further power in rain, regularly supplied by politoed, and in general allows for a little more type diversity (though you may throw a ground type partner in with your discharge abuser if need be. answered Sep 21, 2013 by Dudeicolo Great! Thanks! commented Sep 21, 2013 by EPICWIZARD13 Please log in or register to add a comment. 0 votes Have six Pokemon in ur party and use beat up while holding a dark gem. Have a Pokemon with overcoat ability and use hail or sandstorm. A Pokemon with snow cloak ability and have it hold a bright powder. Use hail and keep using double team so they won't hit u. This are just my suggestions. answered Sep 21, 2013 by RedtheLEGEND Yeah, thing is i play in OU so evasion stuff is banned...otherwise i would sooo use those combos. Thanks anyway commented Sep 21, 2013 by EPICWIZARD13 You're welcome commented Sep 21, 2013 by RedtheLEGEND OVERCOAT>MAGIC GUARD EVERY DAY OF THE WEEK! commented Sep 21, 2013 by trachy Please log in or register to add a comment. 0 votes (just a short one here) If you have a phisically offensive Pokémon (e.g. Fighting type) hold a Lum Berry (Persim Berry) and have another Pokémon use Swagger on it it will raise it's attack and cure the confusion. Also, I don't know much about OU so I don't know if you can use berries and stuff like that so I would apprciate if you would tell me if something is wrong with the answer so I can delete it thanks. answered Sep 21, 2013 by TERKOIZ Please log in or register to add a comment.

So, I've been watching all of DBZ again, because I recently purchased all 9 seasons on DVD, and I've noticed a couple of interesting things. So far the most interesting, is what King Kai said about Saiyans when Goku first arrived on his planet. King Kai was explaining that Planet Vegeta has the same gravity as his his planet and that that gives them an advantage., Bnd then he said, "But that's not the root of their power. Saiyans are born with a natural ability to fight anywhere, it's like a sixth sense, it's in their blood."
I find that line to be very interesting, and I think it's just further proof that Saiyans can breath in space. Another thing that I found interesting was when Goku met Princess Snake, he ate a ton of drugged food and he shrugged it off easily. I think that's proof that higher power levels give a resistance to poisons.
Also, Yajirobe just bit Krillin's ass. ^_^

Adopt or rescue your next pet, don't buy or breed
In last week's article, I discussed the importance of spaying and neutering. We are all aware of the millions of animals euthanized each year due to pet overpopulation, and unfortunately there are not enough homes for the vast amount of animals in shelters across the country. So, I've found another way you can help reduce these euthanasia numbers…ADOPT OR RESCUE! Too many times I've heard people say they just want to breed their dog one time because "she's just so cute," or because "he's the best dog I've ever had." Though that may be the case, there are still millions of animals looking to find their forever home. You'd be surprised at the types of cats and dogs that make their way into shelters and rescues each year. So you want a purebred? Not a problem. There are purebreds that end up in shelters, including ours, as well as rescue groups who focus on primarily one breed.

Here's Jenna Dewan-Tatum simultaneously rocking the smallest of baby bumps and the chicest of Stella McCartney bags (IMHO) as she's leaving the gym in LA. Her bag, of course, is the vegan-friendly, black Stella McCartney Falabella Bag, available at Neiman Marcus for $1195. (You'll notice the silhouette of the bag shifts when one holds it by the long chain instead of the top handle.)
There's been a lot of discourse about Stella McCartney's no-leather stance on the site in the past (especially from Amanda). While $1,195 seems like a lot for a bag that isn't made of buttery Italian leather, I for one am glad to see a designer take an ethical stand, especially as more exotic bag materials, like python, are sourced by designers in ways that I find more than a little shady. But what say you, PB readers - does a questionably harvested python skin bag that retails for more than 10K bother you more than a PVC bag that retails for over a grand?

BEIJING(AP) It has more than a billion people, a population wild about sports and an athletic tradition that stretches back for centuries. So how is India, a nation always comparing itself to China, looking toward the Beijing Olympics?
``With a great deal of dismay, I have to say,'' said Sukhwant Basra, a prominent sports writer who covers India's Olympic tennis team - a group best known at home for the sniping between its male doubles partners.
When it comes to the Olympics, India has long been a laggard. The last time around, in Athens, it earned just one medal - a silver in shooting - and it has been nearly three decades since India took home a gold. In men's field hockey, the one sport where it used to dominate, it didn't even make the Olympics this year.
The list of countries that have outdistanced India ranges into the ridiculous. In Athens, everyone from Finland to Cameroon left India behind. Over the years, India has won a grand total of four individual medals.
Even the leader of India's Olympic association sometimes has trouble rousing himself ahead of Beijing.
India should not ``expect too many medals in China,'' Suresh Kalmadi told reporters recently in New Delhi.
India's economy is booming and the business of sports is expanding steadily, key factors that should help lift it out of its Olympic doldrums. Although there are signs things could be changing, most of its hopes are bogged down in bickering, underfunding and a national obsession with a non-Olympic sport: Cricket.
Cricket is something no Indian Olympian can escape, a sport that is nearly everything there and is played by nearly every boy. Indian cricket stars become famous almost beyond imagination - they are worshipped as minor gods in some places - and their faces become ubiquitous in advertising. If India wins a major cricket tournament, the victory is celebrated across the nation by millions of people shooting off backyard fireworks. Television rights are sold for many millions of dollars, and players become immensely wealthy.
No other sport comes even close, leaving top athletes in everything from weightlifting to track grumbling about a lack of funding, empty grandstands and training camps that might not even have air conditioning.
Only for the Olympics are these athletes ``plucked out of practice grounds, dusted and instructed to win medals for the country. When we fail, we are asked to explain reasons and all sorts of things are written about us,'' Manavjit Singh Sandhu, a top Indian marksman and one of the country's few medal hopefuls, told reporters.
Instead, he said, the money and attention go to what he delicately called the ``obvious sport.''
When it comes to the Olympics, Indian headlines over the past few months have been dominated by such things as the lawsuit on selecting competitors for the women's judo team and squabbling over why the men's hockey team didn't make it to Beijing (``a huge national disaster'' a former team captain said). On Tuesday, the news was that woman weightlifter Monika Devi had failed a drug test just before boarding a flight to Beijing.
India's press normally revels in comparisons to China - debating how quickly India can catch up to China's galloping economy, for instance, and repeatedly noting that India, unlike China, is a democracy. But it doesn't even bother when it comes to the Olympics, because the numbers are just too glaring. Although India took one medal in Athens, China took 63 - and 32 of those were gold.
Just why India has lagged for so long is a topic of bitter debate there. Some see the roots in centuries of poverty that, until recently, gave it little time to focus on athletics. Some see it in a caste system that put the highly educated at the top of the country's deeply complex social ladder - though ancient texts say India also has long celebrated sports competitions. Some argue Indians just don't have enough aggressiveness for sports, an argument that Basra, the sports writer, calls ``a silly assertion.''
The most likely explanation seems to be that India has paid little attention to sports other than cricket, and given those sports almost no funding.
Cricket needs little infrastructure - a ball, a bat, a few sticks and an empty field are enough for a pickup game - and in a nation of more than a billion cricket-mad people some stars are certain to rise above the fray. Modern Olympic training, on the other hand, often requires finding promising athletes when they are still adolescents, and helping them mature as competitors in a system of teams, sports clinics and well-funded foundations. It requires young people who have heroes to look up to, and parents who will encourage them.
Over the past decade, though, there have been signs that the situation could be improving. Lakshmi Mittal, the Indian steel billionaire, has put millions of dollars into paying for everything from coaching to surgery for promising athletes.
Perhaps more important, the culture of sports has begun slowly sifting its way through India's growing middle class. When Sania Mirza became the first Indian woman to crack the top 40 in world rankings a few years ago, the handful of Indian tennis clinics found themselves besieged by parents and children.
So, they're hoping in India, maybe it's time for things to get a little better.
``We've never been very good at these Olympics,'' said S.K. Sharma, a young man playing street cricket on a recent New Delhi afternoon. ``But soon we will show the world what we can do.''
