COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. (June 26, 2010) – Megan Hodge (Durham, N.C.) scored 16 points to lead the U.S. Women's National Volleyball Team to a 25-15, 25-20, 25-17 sweep of Cuba on Saturday evening in the bronze-medal match of the IX Pan American Cup being held in Tijuana, Mexico. Later tonight Dominican Republic and Peru will play for the gold medal in Tijuana.
"Our main goal was to qualify to the World Grand Prix, but it was good to see our team coming back strong after the loss of last night (to Dominican Republic)", U.S. Women's National Team Head Coach Hugh McCutcheon (Christchurch, New Zealand) said. "We are happy with the victory and happy about going to the Grand Prix next year."
In the process, Team USA earned its first medal at the Pan American Cup since 2004. The U.S. medaled in the first three Women's Pan American Cups, starting with a bronze in the inaugural event in 2002, the gold in 2003 and the silver in 2004. Since then, Team USA had not reached the podium in the five most recent events.
Team USA used a 5-0 scoring run to assume a 15-11 advantage in the opening set and closed out the with a 10-point victory at 25-15. Trailing 13-12 in the second set, the U.S. used a 6-1 scoring run to reverse the lead for the fifth time in the set and put enough distance between it and Cuba to win 25-20. The Americans methodically inched to a 15-11 advantage in the third set and went on to win 25-17 as Cuba scored on its own serve three times. For the entire match, the U.S. committed just seven errors to Cuba's 27.
For the second straight tournament this June, the U.S. played NORCECA rival Cuba. Team USA also defeated Cuba in straight sets on June 12 during the semifinals of the Montreux Volley Masters in Montreux, Switzerland, before falling to China in four sets during the gold-medal match on June 13. Last year, Cuba defeated the U.S. twice at the NORCECA Continental Championship, rallying from a two-set deficit both times. At the 2008 Olympic Games, Cuba swept the U.S. in pool play before the Americans defeated the Cubans in three sets during the Olympic semifinals.
By virtue of reaching the semifinals and being guaranteed as one of the top three finishing NORCECA teams at the Pan American Cup, the U.S. has already qualified for the 2011 FIVB World Grand Prix. Peru, as the top South American team in the Pan American Cup, will join the top three NORCECA teams (Dominican Republic, USA, Cuba) at next year's 12-team FIVB World Grand Prix.
The U.S. Women's National Team's next tournament will be the 2010 FIVB World Grand Prix Aug. 6-29, but it will take part in two Red vs. Blue exhibition matches in July. The first exhibition is scheduled for Irvine Valley College (5500 Irvine Center Dr, Irvine, Calif.) on July 17 at 7 p.m. PT. The second exhibition is scheduled for St. Margaret's Episcopal School (31641 LaNovia Avenue, San Juan Capistrano, Calif.) on July 24 at 7 p.m. PT. Tickets are $5 at the door.
Hodge scored her match-high 16 points via 14 kills on 30 swings, one block and an ace. Heather Bown (Yorba Linda, Calif.) chipped in five kills on 11 errorless attacks to go with a match-high five blocks for 11 total points. Jordan Larson (Hooper, Neb.) added seven kills on 20 attacks, one block and an ace for nine points. Nancy Metcalf (Hull, Iowa) contributed seven points with five kills, one block and an ace. Foluke Akinradewo (Plantation, Fla.) was credited with three blocks and a kill for four points, while Alisha Glass (Leland, Mich.) rounded out the scoring with two kills.
Stacy Sykora (Burleson, Texas) paced the USA defense with seven digs and a team-best nine excellent reception attempts on 12 attempts. Larson added six digs and nine excellent receptions on 16 attempts. Glass provided the U.S. with 12 running sets on 66 attempts.
McCutcheon started Glass at setter, Metcalf at opposite, Akinradewo and Bown at middle blocker, and Larson and Hodge at outside hitter. Sykora was the designated libero for the match.
The U.S. out-blocked Cuba 11-6 and held a 3-1 advantage in aces. Cuba managed a slim 38-34 margin in kills and a 21-20 edge in digs. Team USA converted 39.5 percent of its attacks into points with a .302 hitting efficiency (34-8-86). Cuba converted 36.5 percent of its attacks into kills, but mustered just .173 hitting efficiency (38-20-104) with its 20 attack errors.
"We were neutralized at the net like it was the case yesterday," Cuban Head Coach Juan Carlos Gala said. "Our game was yesterday or maybe after securing the qualification to the Grand Prix our intensity was not the same. But anyway, USA was the better team on court today."
Cuba's Kenia Carcaces Opon scored a team-high 13 points in the loss with 11 kills, a block and ace. Yanelis Santos Allegne added nine points for Cuba.
The U.S. reached the Pan American Cup semifinals with five consecutive days of victories starting June 18 with a key 27-25, 25-22, 25-17 victory over Peru, which went on to win its next four matches. On June 19, the Americans blanked Puerto Rico 25-13, 25-17, 25-14. Last year, the U.S. defeated Puerto Rico in pool play during the Pan American Cup, only to have Puerto Rico come back for the upset over the Americans in the bronze-medal match. Team USA continued to gather steam with a 25-17, 25-9, 25-11 victory over surprising Trinidad & Tobago, which won its first two matches of the tournament (and its four-year history competing in the event). The U.S. dominated its fourth match against Costa Rica on June 21, winning 25-11, 25-10, 25-2. In its final pool match on June 22, the Americans topped Mexico 25-14, 25-16, 25-15 in front of 2,500 fans. During the semifinals, the U.S. lost to Dominican Republic 22-25, 25-23, 25-22, 25-16.
The U.S. scored five unanswered points to take a 6-2 lead in the opening set, thanks to a Larson kill and ace, and kills from Hodge and Metcalf. Team USA went into the first technical timeout leading 8-3 after a Bown block followed a Cuba service error. Cuba came out of the break with four consecutive points to whittle the deficit to one point at 8-7. Cuba tied the set at 10-all with back-to-back points, then went into the lead at 11-10. Team USA reversed the lead to itself at 12-11 with a Metcalf kill coming after a Cuba service error. Larson extended the lead with a block and Cuba hit wide at 14-11. Larson scored the fifth straight USA point with a kill at 15-11. The Americans increased its advantage to 17-12 after a Cuban error followed a Larson kill. The U.S. lead reached six points at 19-13 with consecutive Cuba errors, then Akinradewo followed with a block to send the margin to seven at 20-13. The Americans continued the pressure with an Akinradewo kill and Cuba error at 22-14. Team USA reached set point on a Hodge kill at 24-15, then Cuba hit long to end the set at 25-15. Larson scored five points for the U.S. in the opening set.
The U.S. assumed a 3-1 lead in the second set after a Cuba error, Hodge kill and Bown block gave the Americans three straight points. Cuba tied the set at 3-all with an ace and gained the lead back at 7-6 on a U.S. error. Cuba stretched its lead to 9-7 with points on each side of the technical timeout. The Americans tied the score at 9-all with a kill and ace from Larson. Hodge put up a block after a Cuba service error to yield an 11-10 USA lead, then Metcalf added another block to extend the advantage to 12-10. Cuba quickly ran off three unanswered points to regain the lead at 13-12. Team USA responded with a Metcalf kill and took back the lead at 14-13 with a Cuba error. The U.S. went into the second technical timeout with a Hodge kill and Bown block to gain a two-point cushion at 16-14. Out of the break, Bown slammed an overpass for a kill and added a block to increase the American advantage to 18-14 forcing Cuba to call timeout. Team USA gained a five-point edge on the scoreboard after a Cuba error and Larson kill at 21-16. Cuba cut into the gap with a 4-1 scoring run to close to 22-20 and forcing two quick USA timeouts. The U.S. picked up set points after a Cuba error and Bown block at 24-20. Hodge ended the set at 25-20 on the next point, a cross-court kill. Hodge paced the U.S. in the second set with eight point while Team USA scored five blocks.
The Americans took a 5-3 advantage as Bown started a 3-0 scoring run with a kill followed by a Hodge ace and Cuba error. Cuba came back to tie the set at 6-all. Team USA answered with a Larson kill and Akinradewo block going into the first technical timeout leading 8-6. Cuba battled back to tie the set at 9-all with back-to-back points. Hodge and Metcalf collected back-to-back kills to put the U.S. back in front by two at 11-9. Team USA extended its advantage to 14-10 with two Hodge kills around a Metcalf ace leading to a Cuba timeout. Out of the break, Glass sent a second touch over to Cuba for a kill at 15-10. The U.S. gained a six-point lead at 17-11 with kills from Bown and Larson. Cuba cut into its deficit with back-to-back points at 18-14. Team USA responded with an Akinradewo block after a Cuba error to resume a six-point lead at 20-14. The Americans stretched their advantage to 22-15 with a Metcalf kill and Cuba error. The U.S. finished the set at 25-17 after Cuba committed a service and attack error on consecutive points. Hodge scored six of her points during the third set.

This is America isn't it?
It was when I woke this AM, but who knows now. They got me locked in this basement and I haven't heard nary a word from the outside.
Dude, Roos isn't trapped down there with ya too I hope! That would be sooo un American man.
I run my smoker every weekend from last frost to first freeze and don't get any complaints from the neighbors. Then again I don't live where every mailbox has to be the same and you cant paint your house without permission.

European Commission, UN Environment step up cooperation to protect the world's oceans 20/12/2016 00:00:00
Mushrooming Cooperation 05/12/2016 00:00:00
UNEP Executive Director Achim Steiner (L)and Permanent Representative of Kenya to UNEP Amb. Martin Kimani (R) address media at a press conference in Nairobi
UN Secretary-General Mr. Ban Ki-moon, the President of the UN General Assembly, Ministers of Environment and Foreign Affairs and Chief Executives of a number of international organisations are set to attend the newly-established UNEA that will bring together over 1,200 high-level participants from government, business and civil society.
UN Under-Secretary-General and Executive Director of the UN Environment Programme (UNEP) Mr. Achim Steiner, said, "The convening of the first UNEA session in Nairobi - home of UNEP and the often referred to environment capital of the world - represents a coming-of-age for the global environment community. For the first time, all UN member states, Observer States and major stakeholders, will be represented in the new assembly - thereby bestowing upon UNEA a new level of representation, legitimacy and authority."
"A broad range of actors from the world of economy, finance, social sciences, legislation, the judiciary and development are also due to participate to help shape the global environment agenda, under the stewardship of UNEA. The issues facing this first session of UNEA are weighty ones which require the voices of all member states and partners to be heard."
"Now more than ever, it has become increasingly clear that the dichotomy between environmental sustainability and economic and social development should be overcome through the careful management of natural resources as the keystone of a prosperous and stable society. In this new forum, UNEP and its partners will be able to provide governments and other policymakers with the science, policy options and platform, for international cooperation to more effectively address the environmental dimension of sustainable development," he added.
For Kenya, the host country of UNEP's headquarters for over four decades, the convening of UNEA in its capital city of Nairobi marks another milestone in this pioneering partnership.
Ambassador Martin Kimani, Kenya's Permanent Representative to the United Nations, said, "Kenya is ready to welcome the world's leading environmentalists and world experts, working in all areas related to sustainable development to UNEA in June. Our country has made immense strides in building a Green Economy - observe our cutting edge geothermal developments and the high percentage of our GDP from nature tourism."
"The success of UNEA and UNEP are high in our priorities. Kenya is taking every measure to ensure the success of this landmark event. We are inviting delegates from around the world to actively participate in this historic moment and make their contributions to the assembly in a safe and friendly city that is rolling out every welcome to them," he said.
As the new governing body of UNEP, as well as the world's Environment Assembly, UNEA has the mandate to make strategic decisions and provide political guidance in the work of UNEP, and promote a strong science-policy interface.
The first UNEA session is expected to deliver a series of outcomes that would spell out concrete actions to address the key environmental challenges discussed at UNEA. Where appropriate, UNEA may also recommend draft resolutions for adoption at the United Nations General Assembly for UN system-wide action.
At UNEA's high-level segment - held under the slogan A Life of Dignity for All - Ministers and international leaders will gather to address two key sustainable development and environment topics of current international concern, namely:
To complement the Ministerial discussions, UNEA will also see the convening of two Symposia that address two key aspects of environmental sustainability:
The UNEA deliberations will conclude with a High-Level Segment led by UN Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon and President of the General Assembly John Ashe. It will comprise a: strategic briefing on the state of the environment by UNEP Executive Director Achim Steiner; ministerial plenaries on Sustainable Development Goals, including Sustainable Consumption and Production; and the illegal trade in wildlife.
During the UNEA week, more than 40 special and side events, fora, and high-level dialogues, will take place at UNEP's headquarters, covering a range of issues, such as: climate change, gender and the environment, green jobs, air quality, Small Island Developing States (SIDS) and the sound management of chemicals, among other topics.

Roberts, New road residents want water lines
After hearing about plans to run a waterline from Pomfret to Silver Creek, with the town of Dunkirk in between, some town residents thought it might be the time to bring up the lack of city water in a portion of the east town.
New Road resident Judy Szukala along with Roberts Road residents Gene Tarnowski, Joan Grupa, Philip Logan and Candace Sears attended Thursday's Dunkirk Town Board meeting to address the area's lack of city water.
Szukala said last summer she was unable to do laundry at her residence because there was not sufficient well water.
"I did the laundromat all summer (due to) no city water. Then I hear we are concerned about the east and west side of Route 5 but no mention of New Road, Roberts Road, Swamp Road, that we don't have city water. Are we going to address this?," she asked.
Tarnowski said many people would like to build homes in the area but after learning there is no city water, decide to go elsewhere.
The residents were upset that they must pay a comprehensive water tax and be part of a water district but do not receive water.
Supervisor Richard Purol said running water lines through the Roberts Road area has been discussed many times in the past.
Attorney Jeffrey Passafaro explained to get the process going the residents must submit to the town a list of the properties the proposed line would affect.
The town board then has the authority to determine whether it thinks the project is feasible and to commission a survey of the work to be done and the cost by an engineer. Passafaro explained the state comptroller's office sets a threshold price per user per year, where any amount over must be approved by its office.
Purol said an engineering study was done for Roberts and New roads in 2008 and the proposed cost of the project was $1,760,000. He explained the ideal thing to do would be to hook into the Franklin Avenue line; however the line would need to be replaced before it could be extended.
Tarnowski suggested hooking into the line on Williams Street instead. Purol explained the Bennett Road line which connects to Williams Street is also in need of replacement.
Councilman Robert Penharlow suggested the board contact Southern Tier West to see if it could help with GIS mapping of the area and also the Department of Agriculture because it is an agricultural district.
Szukala said she is also concerned the old dump on New Road could be contaminating residents' well water. Purol said the board would contact the Health Department on the matter.
The board will hold a workshop and special meeting on Feb. 5 at 7 p.m. The board's regular meeting conflicts with the Annual Association of Towns meeting and was rescheduled for Feb. 13 at 7 p.m.

Gonzaga History 1980-1989
Crosby Alumni House,
John Stockton and
|Herak Center for
Engineering, 1984
The Kennel Club started in the 1983-1984 school year from a request of basketball head coach Dan Fitzgerald to baseball coach Steve Hertz asking for help to fill up the gym for home games in the Martin Centre. Hertz agreed to encourage his players to attend and to bring their friends. At first there were just a handful of students, mostly baseball and rugby players. They would get together for a pregame social to get prepared for the opposing teams by deciding which player and maybe coach to pick on.
The Engineering School continued to grow and in the 1980s there was a need to expand its facilities again. The $4 million fund raising project paid for a 35,000 square foot addition, lab equipment, and scholarships. The building was renamed the Herak Center for Engineering after the benefactors, Donald and Carol Herak, in May 1984. By the fall of 2002, the Engineering school enrolled 413 students.
Johnston Family Mall,
To make the campus more beautiful and similar to its beginning, the busy corridor of Boone Avenue just outside the Administration Building was closed and became a walking mall. Three blocks of Boone Avenue were vacated. Cul-de-sacs, gentle curving walkways, sculpted grounds adorned this mall. Over a million ornamental red bricks were used to make the walkway. The mall was dedicated in 1984 as the Johnston Family Mall, Gonzaga benefactors.

benefit performances, 1985
Actor and comedian Bob Newhart performed at the 1985 Parents' Weekend. Newhart presented two performances to capacity crowds to benefit Gonzaga. His eldest son, Rob, was a Gonzaga junior majoring in broadcast journalism at the time.
|Centennial Celebration,
Sept. 17, 1986
For over a year, Gonzaga celebrated its Centennial in various events. A campus-wide birthday party was held on September 17, 1986 on the lawn behind the Administration Building. For the Centennial, Gonzaga officially embarked on its largest fund-raising effort in its history, a capital campaign to raise $33 million in five years.
|Martin Centre under
construction, c.1986
|Students playing "Pictionary",
In April 1987, Alphonse and Geraldine Arnold gave Gonzaga 4,250 ounces of gold. Proceeds for the sale of gold totaled $2 million, the largest single gift in GU's history at the time. A trust was set up to be used for professorships, scholarships, and a Presidential Fund for support of unrestricted programs such as faculty research and development and campus renovations and improvements.
|Jepson Center, 1987
|President Coughlin and John
Clute launch the second phase
of the $62 million capital
campaign at the Martin
Centre, 1989
Gonzaga University Theatre Sports or G.U.T.S started in 1988. With no costumes and no script, G.U.T.S. was total improvisational theater in which the stage was converted into a competitive arena. Divided into two teams of five on the Russell Theatre stage, students engage in a variety of stage competitions. In the "line" game, players who crossed the imaginary line became characters in a scene chosen by the audience. By 1991, G.U.T.S. had 30 members who performed once a month. The shows usually attracted an attendance of over 250 people.

The other notable visitor to Gonzaga was Lou Holtz, legendary Notre Dame football coach. Holtz gave the commencement address at the 1989 graduation. Nearly 5,000 people, with 486 graduating seniors, heard him. Those unable to find a seat in the Martin Centre were seated in Hughes Auditorium and the Martin Centre field house for live, closed-circuit viewing of the ceremony, which also was televised over a cable channel. Holtz's speech made for one of Gonzaga's most memorable graduations.

Task Force
In 1987, CHANEL set up a partnership with the largest flower producer in Grasse, the legendary perfume region on the French Riviera where, in recent years, real estate developments have been steadily encroaching on flower fields. By doing so, CHANEL insured the supply of two of the crucial ingredients in their signature scent, the jasmine and May rose in CHANEL No. 5 ($105 for .25 oz.).
Building on the success of the Grasse project, CHANEL has now partnered with a camellia conservation nursery at the Château de Gaujacq in Landes in southern France. The castle's harvest of the camellia, Coco Chanel's favorite flower, is being used to produce their newest skincare line, Hydra Beauty ($87 for 1.7 oz. Hydra Beauty Crème).
Sylvie Chantecaille uses her garden in East Hampton, New York, for inspiration for the eponymous cosmetics line she creates with her daughter, Olivia. Perfect for summer, Chantecaille's Sunrise Lip Chic ($33) is a bright coral pink inspired by the pink and peach petals of the multi-colored Sunrise Rose. Nano Gold Energizing Eye Serum ($210) is made with the stem cells of such kitchen garden-worthy ingredients as raspberry and tomato. Meanwhile, Chantecaille's latest perfume, Pétales ($175 for 75 ml), was inspired by Sylvie's love of gardenias.

text: Ruching is a gathered fabric design technique used by dress designers in every style from sexy cocktail dresses for the clubs to elegant gowns for formal occasions. Short strapless dresses and mini dresses give you more room to move when the fabric is ruched. Sleek evening gowns and prom ruched dresses get a more textured look and may hide any unwanted bumps making the waist look smaller. Glamorous evening wear, sweet sixteen and semi formal dresses or sexy little club dresses all with various ruched styles can flatter any figure.

Modeling a Circulating Fluidized Bed
Andrew Griesmer | February 25, 2014
A circulating fluidized bed (CFB) is used to create a homogeneous mixture of gas (usually air) and solid particles to increase the efficiency of the combustion process in boilers. A better understanding of this process will help engineers to optimize their design parameters based on their individual needs. The Circulating Fluidized Bed model in COMSOL does just this, simulating a CFB with a given set of parameters that are easily interchangeable, depending on the needs of the user.
Why Use a Circulating Fluidized Bed?
A regular boiler uses solid particles for the combustion process, producing residues that need to be scrubbed away on a regular basis. In a circulating fluidized bed (CFB), air is sent upwards through the bed, lifting the particles into the air. When they reach the top and exit the bed, they are sent back into an inlet towards the bottom of the bed, and so on.
A model of the circulating fluidized bed system.
Since CFB's produce a fluid-like fuel to burn (particles suspended in air), the increased surface area of the individual particles leads to higher efficiency, lower operating temperatures (~1500°F vs. 2200°F), fewer emissions, and increased fuel options.
Simulating Flow for Better Understanding
Circulating fluidized beds are already being used in industry today, but to keep increasing overall efficiency, we need to better understand the process of fluidizing the beds. This will help to answer questions such as "What should the fluid inlet velocity be?", "What width and height dimensions should my fluidized bed have?", and "How will changing the particle density effect my overall output?".
Instead of answering these questions with experimental testing, you can use simulation tools. The Circulating Fluidized Bed model, created with COMSOL Multiphysics and the CFD Module, uses the Euler-Euler Model, Laminar Flow Interface to model the different phases of the process.
First, there is the dispersion phase, which is shown in the image below. The darker areas indicate a higher ratio of particles-to-air. As you can see, after only five seconds the particles are much more dispersed, though none have reached the top of the bed.
Snapshots of the fluidized bed showing the start of dispersion phase. The bed width has been scaled by a factor of ten.
After about ten seconds, the system reaches a steady state, which is known as the continuous phase. At this point, the fluid/particle mixture has reached its maximum average volume fraction. The volume fraction is the volume of air divided by the total volume of the system (air plus particles).
At time zero, the packed bed consists of 50% particles and 50% air, or a volume factor of 0.5. As seen below, once the system reaches the continuous phase, the volume fraction ranges between 0.86-0.935, depending on the location in the bed.

Financial literacy program set for FD
Money Smart Week is coming to Fort Dodge in April, but some related activities will begin this week.
A financial literacy outreach program developed by the Federal Reserve Bank in 2002, the public awareness campaign will be making its official local debut during Money Smart Week, April 20 to 27.
However, an Iowa State University Extension open house will be held at Crossroads Mall on Saturday, and some events for the younger set will be held Wednesday and Thursday.
David Oppedahl, a speaker from the Federal Reserve, will talk about prospects for small business development in rural America during the kickoff luncheon – which was scheduled around his availability two days before the actual Money Smart Week begins, said Barb Wollan, ISU Extension family finance program specialist.
"The events before (Money Smart Week) primarily involve raising kids' awareness and being able to send home a few things to make their parents aware," Wollan said.
There will be a poster contest for school children, with local prizes awarded; posters will be on display at the Fort Dodge Public Library and other sites.
A statewide essay contest will be held for high school students, Wollan said.
Money Smart Week made its debut in the Des Moines area in 2007 and began expanding to other Iowa communities. When Wollan overheard co-workers from other Extension offices talking about programs being held in Harlan and Creston, she decided Fort Dodge should also be a site.
A local committee formed last fall.
"This is our first year doing Money Smart Week as a local campaign," she said. "We hope and expect it will continue and be the kind of thing on an ongoing basis that plants in people's minds that they have some options and control" over their financial situation year round and not just during one special week per year.
The program is designed to help consumers better manage their personal finances. Programming is offered to all demographics and income levels and covers all facets of personal finance from establishing a budget to first-time home buying to real estate planning.
Local events include:
Ben Franklin visits Community Christian School – Wednesday
Ben Franklin visits St. Paul Lutheran School – Wednesday
Ben Franklin visits St. Edmond School – Thursday
Iowa State University Extension open house – Crossroads Mall – Saturday
Money Smart Week Kickoff Luncheon – Cana – April 18
Smart Money, Safe Money, Foster Grandparent Training – April 18

We're always looking for ways to eat better and save money. At Shane Diet & Fitness Resorts, our weight loss camp for adults, did a fun little experiment for a quick snack bar that that tastes just like the real thing you'd find at the grocery store. Take a look at the recipe we used for a homemade version of a "KIND" bar.
This recipe is great! It really tastes just like a KIND Bar, and instead of paying $1.50 per bar, Monica Matheny, the author of the post, estimates the cost around $0.44 per bar, which is a huge savings!
This recipe makes 20 bars, so you can wrap them individually in parchment paper and pop them in the freezer for later use. These make a tasty snack or quick breakfast on the go. They are also a great source of heart-healthy fat found in nuts, they contain protein, fiber, and less sugar than many other bars out there. Can it get any better than that? Take some time to have a little fun in the kitchen – find recipes for some of your favorite healthy snacks, try them at home and tell us how they turned out!

For our grandsons birthday, my wife baked and decorated a gigantic chocolate chip cookie to serve at his party. She got out her cookbook, gathered the ingredients, and began to follow the simple steps involved in making cookies. She followed a simple recipe and everything turned out well.
Wouldnt it be nice if life was like that? Just follow a few easy steps and then enjoy a happy life.
But life is not so simple. We live in a fallen world and there is no easy recipe to follow that will ensure a life free of pain, loss, injustice, or suffering.
In the midst of lifes pain, we need the personal care of the Savior who lived in this world and experienced the same struggles we face. Hebrews 4:15 encourages us: For we do not have a High Priest who cannot sympathize with our weaknesses, but was in all points tempted as we are, yet without sin. Christ, who died to give us life, is completely sufficient to carry us through our heartaches and dark experiences. He has borne our griefs and carried our sorrows (Isa. 53:4).
Jesus knows there is no simple recipe to prevent the heartaches of life, so He entered into them with us. Will we trust Him with our tears and grief?
Read: Hebrews 4:11-16
Seems we're back in business Y'all!

It's Tunes For Our Troops Time!
Before Louis Armstrong, before Elvis Presley, there was Scott Joplin.
Joplin was born on the Texas side of Texarkana in 1868 to a free mother and an ex-slave father. The father and mother played, respectively, fiddle and banjo in a dance band. His siblings sang and played guitar. It was a typical American musical family, except that it was black.
Scott learned to play guitar and bugle, but it was at age seven that he discovered a piano in a neighbors house and proved himself a prodigy. Pretty soon everyone in Texarkana, no matter what race, heard about the black boy and his piano technique. Every city in those days had a German immigrant who was a music teacher. Just as Stephen Foster learned from a local German music teacher, so did little Scott. The Germans werent so picky about the color line in the South.
One piece that had an influence on young Scott was the finale of Beethovens last piano sonata. There is a variation with a five-notes-to-one-beat pulse that uses a 12/32 time signature and syncopates the melodic line. Here Beethoven invents jazz. Skip ahead to 6:31 in this video to see what I mean. Catch that boogie-woogie left hand at 7:44.
Beethoven: Piano Sonata in C minor, Op. 111 (Part 1 of Finale)
In 1882, at age 14, Joplin left home and plunged into the world of entertainment, a universe of honky-tonks, saloons, pool halls and ahem! sporting houses where gifted pianists were in demand. This world was one of the few places where white and black could meet as equals.
Joplin roamed all over the Mississippi Valley, picking up a lot of new musical styles, but the one that united this new world of music was ragtime, known in its early days as jig piano or whorehouse music. Its rule was simple: Keep the left hand playing in a straight 2/4 with a one-and-two-and beat, and let the right hand syncopate the melody raggedly and work around the prison of the bar lines, which is how the music got its name.
In the musical era of post-Civil War sentimental songs, ragtime was a refreshing change, but it was a change that polite society tried to ignore at first. There is a wonderful scene in John Waynes last film, The Shootist, set in 1901, where Ron Howard whistles a few bars of Joplin, and his mother, played by Lauren Bacall, shushes him for whistling such a naughty thing on Sunday!
Joplin arrived in St. Louis in 1885 at age 17 and took up his base of operations at Turpins Silver Dollar Saloon, a hotbed of vice in the black community and home of the new ragtime sound. Every so often, a madam at one of the sporting houses would ask for a piano player, and Scott or someone else would be hired on the spot. He might be paid in cash or in trade, which was to have a devastating effect on Joplin in his Forties. He ranged over much of Missouri and went to Chicago for the 1893 Worlds Fair where he formed a dance band. Following Chicago, he settled in Sedalia (MO) where he became a part of the black middle class. He formed a barbershop octet in Sedalia, wrote songs for them and toured the Midwest and even the Northeast in 1895, at age 27.
In 1896, the little town of Temple (TX) saw a freight train collision on the Missouri, Kansas & Texas Railway. Joplin memorialized the event in a piece that shows the roots of ragtime. He places written descriptions along the stave in the score, and the piece just begs to be syncopated.
Joplin: The Great Crush Collision March
Another piece from this early period also received publication. There is a bit of syncopation here.
Waltzes were as much a part of American parlor piano music as marches.
Joplin did succeed in getting one ragtime piece published. There is a strong hint here of what was to come.
Hi, Ma!!!
It sure is good to see everything is back to (sort of) normal.

Great...There isn't anything by/from Richard Clayderman I don't like.
Well, hello to you at your Kindle, HJ. ((HUGS))
It is SO good to be back amongst our FRiends.
Good to see ya!
Ragtime was not yet on the nations radar, but all that changed in 1896. Ragtime arrived in New York and took the city by storm, and the new sound quickly went nationwide. Joplin sat down and wrote another rag, but composing it and getting it published properly were two different things. He needed a white advocate, one he could trust not to rip him off.
His name was John Stark. An abolitionist in his youth, he was the leader of the Sedalia music scene on the white side of the tracks and owner of the local sheet music store. One hot day in 1899, the 58 year old Stark dropped in at the Maple Leaf Club for a cold beer and heard Joplin playing piano. The two men knew each other by sight, and when Joplin was done, Stark greeted him.
Hello, Joplin. Thats a good number. Is it yours?
The next day Joplin dropped in at Starks store and sold Maple Leaf Rag for $50 plus royalties.
First it sold out in Sedalia. Stark set up sales contracts through Missouri, then regionally, then nationally. Sales snowballed, first hitting 75,000 and then plowing forward rapidly to the million mark. (Thats the 1899 equivalent of a Gold Record, folks!) This was the piece that made Joplin the King of Ragtime and sent him on his way as the great exponent of the new music. Soon Joplins ragtime was being played in every parlor in America, white and black except perhaps on Sundays.
This is the famous 1971 recording by Joshua Rifkin, who was responsible for the Great Ragtime Revival of the Seventies. I saw Rifkin do a benefit concert of Joplins music at UCLAs Royce Hall in 1980. Martin Bernheimer, dean of music criticism at the Los Angeles Times was scathing, writing that it was a waste of time for a fine classical pianist, teacher and Baroque Era scholar to fiddle at the piano with ragtime. But the hall was sold out, and the audience loved it.
Note that Rifkin doesnt play it all that fast. Notice! Dont play this piece fast. It is never right to play ragtime fast, Joplin wrote famously, and this recording honors that. Note the format of a piano rag: AA-BB-A-CC-DD. The C section is usually in the subdominant key, rather than the tonic key. (Subdominant D-flat, rather than tonic A-flat in this piece.)
You're welcome, Cindy. There will be at least two more posts of Richard Clayderman over the weekend. There will be more to follow next weekend, as well.
A man named Johnny Pacheco brought syncopation into the New York Latin music scene in the 60s. That is why I like the Salsa so much but ironically, I do not like Dixieland Jazz. :-)
Good choice tonight! :)
Happy Purim!
Time to read the Book of Esther!
You're gonna be wallerin' like crazy!

Ice Palace construction pushed back to next week
APA clear-cut permit is needed
To the editor:
The Adirondack Park Agency will be voting on a general permit (GP) for clear-cutting soon. This is a step in the right direction.
If you believe the Forest Preserve will be clear-cut, this is not true. By Article 14 of the New York State Constitution, trees cannot be cut on state Forest Preserve; roughly half of the Park is state land. The GP will only affect PRIVATE PROPERTY and only the private property of landowners who are enrolled in a third-party certification process. To be certified by one of these organizations, the landowner must have a harvesting plan. This plan must match what the certifying agency requires for a healthy forest. This does not relate to just the trees; plants and animals are taken into consideration. The harvesting plans create habitat for different species. The silvicultural science behind a clear-cut is sound.
I was recently in a meeting with several Adirondack environmental groups. They did not dispute the need for clear-cutting in some forest conditions. The problem with the current permit process is that it is lengthy; the one permit the APA issued took 14 months. One must understand clear-cutting is not a decision made lightly. However, forestry is like gardening: Instead of planning for a summer when gardening, foresters plan for 30 years or more.
The APA is not abandoning its responsibilities, as some groups have claimed. It is trying to streamline its processes. The APA employees who are tasked to approve a GP are the very same APA employees who will recommend approval of a Class A permit to the APA board. The real difference will be in the amount of time it takes for approval.

I got the choc and strawberry shortcake flavour. Both yummy and great for chucking in your gym bag. The small bits take some getting used to but is not unbearableGoes Well With:cold water
I found the Impact Diet Whey (RTS) to be a really easy and nice product to use, it mixes well and is very convenient to take away in your gym bag, into work etc. I highly recommend it.
Impact Diet Whey (RTS) tastes great and has all the right ingredients, but mixing could be better. Shake the hell out of it but you can still get hidden lumps when you drink it.Goes Well With:milk, water
How come it takes so long to invent something so obvious! Carry in your bag, finish the workout, open the cap, under the tap for a moment, a quick shake drink and you have the perfect finish to a good pump. When working out in a 24 hour gym in the middle of the night or where there are limited facilities at work to store and mix your own protein drinks - this is a perfect answer. I will always carry a bottle of this in my kit and for the big guys approaching competition and worried and missing a meal, worry no more. The cleverest solutions are often the very simplest.
I love how the Impact Diet Whey (RTS) come in single serve bottles - they are very convenient and easy to make. I bought these to try out the taste first before committing to buying a whole bag of protein powder. They taste pretty good, I bought the chocolate flavour and would recommend it. Goes Well With:water, soy milk
Impact Diet Whey (RTS) is perfect for people on the move. Simply add water, shake then consume. It's great tasting (strawberry), and no lumps to date. It's recommended to anybody.
Impact Diet Whey (RTS) is an awesome product.
I have tried loads of shakes in the past but Impact Diet Whey (RTS) is a great price and I would recommend it to anyone, they have worked fantastic and would carry on buying them.Goes Well With:I make them with water when out or milk when home
Great product, I keep these at work, much easier to store than tubs of whey. Mixes easy, tastes quite nice. The only reason it doesn't get five stars is because of the residue that always seems to be left at the bottom of the bottle. But that is such a minor thing as the majority of the drink is easy to mix, drink and tastes nicer than a lot of other products I've tried.
Bought some of the double chocolate flavour for when I'm on the go and need some extra protein and all I can say is 'wow!', the quality is out of this world - great taste, easy to mix and good value for money. The double chocolate flavour hasn't got that sickly taste and the oats are fantastic, not that cardboard rubbish like other companies sell. To be honest, I could drink all 12 bottles it tasted that good! It's just another great product by my protein. I rate this 10/10, easy.
Myprotein Impact Diet Whey (RTS) is yet another top notch product. It's good value for money, the taste is fantastic and it mixes very well. They're ideal for people on the go, just add water and you're ready to go.

N.Y. Power Authority Marks 25th Anniversary of Frederick R. Clark Energy Center
Michael Saltzman
(914) 390-8181
September 9, 2005
UTICA—The New York Power Authority (NYPA) Friday marked the 25th anniversary of the Frederick R. Clark Energy Center in Marcy, whose Energy Control Center (ECC) directs and monitors the Authority's statewide operations, consisting of 17 generating plants and more than 1,400 circuit-miles of high-voltage transmission lines.
"The Energy Control Center is the command station for the vast trafficking in electrons that is our business," said Eugene W. Zeltmann, NYPA president and chief executive officer at a celebratory event at the Hotel Utica, where he was joined by various state and local officials. "Over the past 25 years, Clark's workforce of engineers, electricians, mechanics, linemen and other professionals have dedicated themselves to lower electricity costs for New York State's ratepayers and bolstering reliability of electricity service. Today's event recognizes their efforts."
In addition to coordinating NYPA's statewide operations, the ECC also provides information to the New York Independent System Operator, which oversees the statewide market for sale and purchase of electricity.
The Clark Energy Center includes the Marcy Substation, which handles more than three million kilowatts of electricity and is the location of the Power Authority's transmission maintenance organization and training center for its linemen.
Five high-voltage NYPA transmission lines extend into and out of Marcy, making it a critical juncture for the statewide power grid.
"We're proud to host this varied energy center, which, in essence, is the hub of the Power Authority's statewide operations," said Sen. Raymond Meier. "Clark is also a significant employer for our area, with a workforce of some 170 people."
"State-of-the-art equipment recently installed at the Clark Energy Center enhances the vital role it plays for the state's electric power system," said Assemblywoman RoAnn M. Destito. "It underscores the priority the Power Authority has placed on the use of advanced technologies to strengthen power system reliability."
"Today's anniversary event reminds us of the critical role the Clark Energy Center plays in dispatching economical power and maintaining and repairing transmission lines," said Assemblyman Dave Townsend. "This facility is integral to the state's electric power infrastructure, and we take pride that it's in Central New York."
The Power Authority chose the Town of Marcy, northwest of Utica, for the energy center because of its central location in the state. Opened in 1980, it is located on Glass Factory Road and is named for Frederick R. Clark, who served as the Power Authority's chairman from 1977 to 1979, and continued as a NYPA trustee through 1982.
In June 2004, the Power Authority celebrated completion of a pioneering transmission-control device at Clark, called the convertible static compensator (CSC), which is largely contained to a gymnasium-sized building. The device provides for increased power flow on heavily utilized transmission lines and for instantaneous shifting of power in the same substation from one transmission line to another.
The capability for instantaneous shifting of power—the first time this has been achieved anywhere in the world—allows for power to be transferred from a heavily utilized line to one with spare capacity, providing enhanced flexibility for dispatching of economical power.
NYPA invested $41 million in the CSC, with additional financial support from other electric utilities and industry organizations interested in the technology, which relies on high-speed, solid-state electronics rather than conventional electromechanical devices.
Our city's proximity to the Clark Energy Center is a plus for its economy, considering the commerce that has resulted from its operation over the years," said Utica Mayor Tim Julian, noting that a Utica firm, Stetson-Dale, served as the architect-engineer and construction manager of the building housing Clark's operations.
NYPA has also contributed to the Utica area's economy through allocations of lower cost power to businesses that are linked to more than 2,000 jobs. And it has achieved taxpayer savings through various energy efficiency projects for public facilities in the area, including the Oneida County Office Building, Court House and Sheriff's Department, and Mohawk Valley Community College.
Among the Power Authority's 17 generating plants is a small hydroelectric project at Hinckley Reservoir—the Gregory B. Jarvis Plant—about 10 miles northeast of Utica. The plant is capable of generating enough electricity for 9,000 homes.

Wash. man gets life for 1957 slaying of Ill. girl
CHICAGO - A Washington man convicted in the 1957 slaying of a 7-year-old Illinois girl has been sentenced to life in prison.
Judge James Hallock sentenced 73-year-old Jack McCullough at a hearing Monday in Sycamore, the small community where Maria Ridulph (RIHD'-uhlf) was abducted and killed in December of 1957.
McCullough was convicted in September after a trial in which prosecutors contended that McCullough, then a 17-year-old named John Tessier, approached Ridulph and another little girl outside Ridulph's house. Prosecutors say McCullough abducted and killed Ridulph after the other child ran home.
McCullough was arrested last year in Washington state after some people came forward with information that linked him to the slaying. They included members of McCullough's family.
