Incredible US Caves and Caverns
Go spelunking to see an underground mansion, lava flows, a bat colony and the tracks of a giant Pleistocene jaguar. Plan a family trip to visit Carlsbad Cavern, Mammoth Cave and more!
Natural Bridge Caverns
Natural Bridge CavernsGo 211 feet underground to see the deepest part of the largest caverns in Texas. Natural Bridge Caverns -- located near New Braunfels, TX -- continues to be an active and growing cavern system, with water flows causing the underground formations to retain their waxy luster. Visitors can take several different types of guided tours, including the Bracken Bat Flight Tour for an up-close view of the Bracken Cave, home to the world's largest bat colony. 960 1280
Meramec Caverns
Meramec CavernsWhile camping in Missouri's Ozark Mountains, we recommend a trip to Meramec Caverns to see how an ancient limestone "Wine Table" and an entire 7-story mansion were built underground. In addition to these unique attractions, pre-Columbian Native American artifacts have also been found in the caverns, formed from the erosion of large limestone deposits millions of years ago. Every year, more than 150,000 visitors walk through the 4.6-mile cavern system. 960 1280
Caverns of Sonora
Caverns of SonoraHalfway between Big Bend National Park and San Antonio, TX, the Caverns of Sonora is one of the most active caves in the world, with more than 95% of its formations still growing. Outdoor enthusiasts can camp in a tent or RV nearby. You can't leave this natural landmark without tasting fresh cream and butter fudge made at the caverns. 960 1280
Moaning Cavern
Moaning CavernLocated in Vallecito, CA, Moaning Cavern received its mysterious name from what some believe to be a moaning sound from the cave that lured gold miners to the entrance in the 1850s. Today, visitors can take a walking tour or rappel down a 165-foot-tall vertical shaft located in the cavern's main chamber. Moaning Cavern is home to some of the oldest human remains discovered in America; it is the final resting place for the bodies of prehistoric people who fell into its opening. 960 1280
Polar Caves
Polar CavesThe Polar Caves were created about 50,000 years ago when a continental glacier descended over the White Mountains in Rumney, NH, creating an amazing series of caves and passageways. In addition to exploring the caves, families can go on a scavenger hunt for minerals and hidden gems at the Klondike Mine, walk the nature trails to learn about local Native American tribes and visit the Maple Sugar House and Museum. 960 1280
Mammoth Cave
Mammoth CaveWith its vast chambers and complex labyrinths, Mammoth Cave National Park is home to the world's longest known cave system, which measures more than 400 miles long. The park offers a variety of guided cave tours -- including a ranger-led nature trek for kids -- as well as camping, horseback riding, biking and other activities to explore the beauty of Kentucky's Green River Valley. 960 1280
Carlsbad Cavern National Park
Carlsbad Cavern National ParkVisit Carlsbad Caverns in New Mexico to see more than 118 known caves formed when sulfuric acid dissolved the surrounding limestone over millions of years. Most of the formations found inside Carlsbad Cavern were active and growing during the last ice age, when there were pine forests above the cave. 960 1280
Ohio Caverns
Ohio CavernsOne of Ohio's most popular tourist attractions, Ohio Caverns features some of most colorful crystals in the US. It's an all-day family adventure at this 35-acre park. It's not uncommon to see visitors panning for gemstones and minerals. A limestone, tree, historic and natural wonders tour are also available for amateur explorers. 960 1280
Kartchner Caverns State Park
Kartchner Caverns State ParkExplore the natural beauty of Kartchner Caverns Park in Arizona. And below, hidden from view, explore 2.4-mile passages that were discovered by local archaeologists in 1974. The Throne Room and the Big Room are the 2 major features of the caverns. The Throne Room contains the world's longest soda straw stalactites and a 58-foot-high column called Kubla Khan. The Big Room is closed during the summer each year because it is a nursery roost for over 1,000 cave bats. 960 1280
Luray Caverns
Luray CavernsMore than a million and a half visitors from around the world visit Virginia's Luray Caverns every year. This subterranean wonderland has paved pathways for people to stroll through the caverns to see Giant's Hall, Frozen Fountain, Dream Lake, Saracen's Tent, the Stalacpipe Organ and more! 960 1280
Jewel Cave
Jewel CaveSouth Dakota's Jewel Cave is the third-longest cave in the world, with over 166 miles of passages. Fun fact: The largest room discovered in Jewel Cave is called the "Big Duh," which measures 570 feet long, 180 feet wide at its widest point and 30 feet tall. We recommend the wild caving tour for experienced cavers. During this strenuous, 3- to 4-hour tour, visitors learn about low-impact caving, caving techniques, caving safety and equipment. 960 1280
Lost Sea Caverns
Lost Sea CavernsHead to Sweetwater, TN, to visit the largest non-subglacial underground lake in the US (and the second largest in the world) called The Lost Sea. Most cavers may know this cave system as Craighead Caverns, located in the foothills of the Great Smoky Mountains and named after Chief Craighead, the former owner and Cherokee Indian. A wide range of Cherokee artifacts, including pottery, weapons and jewelry, are located a mile from the cavern's entrance. Don't miss seeing the tracks of a giant Pleistocene jaguar whose tracks were found deep inside the cave in 1939. 960 1280
Blanchard Springs Caverns
Blanchard Springs CavernsLocated below Arkansas' Ozark National Park, Blanchard Springs Caverns offers different levels of tours for amateurs and professional cave dwellers. Tours wind through water-carved passages, including an underground river and the world's largest flowstone. The cave is often called the "living cave" because it is constantly changing. 960 1280
Ape Cave
Ape CaveExplore the longest, continuous lava tube in the US. Washington State's Ape Cave -- a popular hiking destination with spectacular views of Mt. St. Helens – was formed from volcanoes of the Cascade Mountain Range in western North America. One popular spot in the 2-mile passageway includes a formation called "Meatball," a block of cooled lava that fell from the lava tube ceiling while lava was still flowing through the cave. 960 1280

1. Introduction. The purpose of these Standards of Conduct is twofold:
a) to define expectations for mediators' conduct in the UNH Peer Mediation program, and
b) to inform the campus community and persons participating in mediation what they can expect from the campus peer mediators.
2. Self-Determination. Participation in mediation is voluntary. Participants always have the choice whether to participate in mediation, continue in the mediation process, or reach an agreement, and of the terms of any agreement. While the mediators will assist the participants in discussing the problem and possible solutions, the mediators will not provide solutions or make decisions and any solutions and agreements will be generated by the parties to the dispute.
3. Impartiality. Mediators will be impartial in conducting the mediation, which means they will not take sides or be biased towards either party in the course of the mediation. If a mediator finds that he or she cannot remain unbiased, then the mediator must withdraw from the mediation and notify the Peer Mediation Coordinator who will reschedule the mediation with a new mediator(s).
4. Avoiding conflict of interest . Mediators will not mediate in situations in which they have a conflict of interest, such as a close relationship with one of the participants, an interest in the situation or outcome, or any involvement in the situation. If there is a question of whether a conflict of interest may be present, the mediator will only mediate if, after full disclosure, all participants agree to the mediator's involvement and the mediator believes he or she can be completely impartial. If a conflict of interest arises in the course of the mediation and cannot be resolved, then the mediator must withdraw from the mediation and notify the Peer Mediation Coordinator who will reschedule the mediation with a new mediator(s).
5. Competence. Peer mediators must satisfactorily complete an extensive training course prior to mediating in the Campus Peer Mediation Program. In addition, peer mediators will attend skills development workshops at least twice per semester. Mediators will only mediate if they feel they can do so competently. If at any time, including during a mediation session, a mediator believes he or she cannot conduct the mediation competently, the mediator will inform the co-mediator and participants, pausing the mediation session, and seek the assistance of the Peer Mediation Coordinator or Supervisor.
6. Confidentiality. All matters handled by or referred to the Campus Mediation Program are highly confidential, including the identity of persons involved as well as what is discussed in the mediation. Mediators, the program supervisor, and mediation coordinators may not disclose any such information to anyone outside the program, except that danger of bodily harm or abuse must be reported. Any other exceptions desired by the participants to the mediation must be agreed upon in the mediation and incorporated into a written agreement.
7. Quality of Process.
a) Mediators shall conduct mediations in accordance with these standards and to promote mutual respect and fairness.
b) All participants in mediation will be asked to complete brief evaluations of their experience with the mediation process to assist the UNH Center for Dispute Resolution and the peer mediators in providing high quality mediation services to the campus community. Peer mediators will also complete their own self-assessments and peer evaluation questionnaires after each mediation. The evaluations will be reviewed by the mediation supervisor to plan further training and to assist mediators in continuing to develop their mediation skills.
8. General Mediator Obligations. Serving as a peer mediator is a position of great trust. Peer mediators are expected to maintain the highest standards of conduct both on and off campus.

Dozers are amazing equipments for finish and grading work jobs. They provide an unrestricted visibility enabling it's operator to have a full view of the corner of the cutting edge and back of the blade. In their class, Dozers are the best in the business when it all boils down to productive machines. On-the-go tilt and adjustments of the angle are easier, all thanks to the fast & swift response of powerful blades. Being an operator-friendly machine, coupled with wide variety of available attachments, Dozers ensure an on-schedule job.
available horsepowers
As loader dozers are typically used to knock down large hillsides and load the material onto haul trucks, dump trucks or tandems, the amount of material to be moved or loaded determines what size of loader dozer to use. As moving and lifting extra-large boulders is another job that is almost exclusively the work of a loader dozer, the general size of the rocks is another determining factor.
Renting a loader dozer is necessary when an extraordinarily large bucket capacity is required. In addition, loader dozers are used in very rocky ground, ground that a wheel loader would be unstable on and would not have the power to cut into and move. When bucket capacity, power and stability are the highest priorities -- not speed -- a loader dozer is the most appropriate bucket machine to rent for flatwork.

How-To Geek
How to Auto-Hide the Address Bar in Google Chrome and Chromium
One of the features that many people love in Chrome is the minimal UI at the top of the browser. Want to minimize it even more? Then you will definitely want to make use of the new feature added to the Experimental Features page.
To get started enter "about:flags" into the Address Bar and hit Enter. Scroll down until you see the listing for Compact Navigation. Enable it and let the browser restart to gain access to the feature.
Once the browser has restarted right click on one of the tabs and select Hide the toolbar from the Context Menu.
Here is what the top of the browser looks like afterwards. As you can see the Back, Forward, and Tools Menu buttons have moved into the Tab Bar.
To access the Address Bar simply click on the tab. Keep in mind that the Address Bar will auto-hide rather quickly if you do not make use of it soon enough.
Hiding the Address Bar and Bookmarks Bar will really minimize the top UI section of the browser (see first screenshot above).
Note: For the moment the feature is only available on Windows systems for Chrome Dev, Canary, and Chromium releases.

I can't get this tweak in Chrome 11.0.696.68. Probably it's unsupported at this moment.
It requires Chrome Canary on windows for now…
I really love it, even on my big screen, I just wish that there would be somewhere to display my extensions buttons.
Sorry, its also been pushed to Chrome Dev Build
what version is this? i had 10.x and it wasnt on it. then i upgraded to 12.0.742.60 beta-m, and it's not an option on this one either.
so basically, this doesnt work on the 3 latest versions?
13.0.767.1 dev-m
As I said above:
Chrome Canary
Chrome Dev
missing the Home button…
This feature makes me laugh. Is Chrome trying to reinvent the wheel here? If screen space is so important to you than just put Chrome in full screen mode and all the tool bars are gone. On a Mac when you do this all the tool bars appear when you move the cursor to the top of the screen and autohide when you move the cursor away again. For some stupid reason there is no autohide in full screen when using Chrome on Windows but they should be able to fix that.
@ Anomaly: I just don't like the full-screen part but enjoy the emptiness… And the immediate access and "readability" of other windows.
So this certainly is a nice feature, but it's long been available on Opera, like many other such options. I also set a shortcut to show and focus to the address field, then auto-hide. And one can also set the feature Anomaly talks about. Etc.
Now i even hide the caption/title bar with an AHK script that will work on nearly all programs:
#t::WinSet, Style, ^0xC00000, A ( #t stands for Win+t )
This is somewhat off-topic, but i guess many howtogeek readers will already be interested by AutoHotkey scripts. On Chrome and ChromePlus, and IE9, it will only hide the caption buttons. But this is still useful to prevent my young children from closing windows at random…
Is it possible for the omnibar to be hidden by default when opening Chrome?
My only problem with this feature is that it also hides the extension icons. For some extensions that's not a problem but there are some extensions that require you to click on the icon from time to time.
@Chief – This feature still shows the new "altered address bar" here on my browser when I first start it up with the new tab page. If you have a regular page set as the home page, then the new "altered address bar" will appear just until the page finishes loading and then disappear.
@pdcrittenden – That is definitely a big drawback to this feature. :( I do wonder if they will refine it more later to allow the extension icons to show in the tab bar as well (or in a different location).
it's not yet available for google chrome 11 stable version
If you want to hide more than the address bar in Google Chrome—like hide yourself from Google's prying eyes, for instance—you might consider SRWare's Chromium-based Iron browser. It's pretty much identical to Google Chrome, but it's optimized for privacy and security.
dammit, only dev? how many people are using dev do you reckon? Not that many. Put that in the title.
Yes, it's a very nice feature, especially for net-books or laptops. The only problem, like somebody else said, are the extension icons that disappear. The one for email, twitter, etc…
I would suggest to add the the addons near the "tools" because if not this minimal UI isn't useful with addons and nothing is useful without addons!
Google needs to take a look at Firefox from time to time and stop trying to reinvent the wheel every single time. Firefox 4 I can rearrange everything into one toolbar that has everything on it => ultra minimalist.
I got version 11 and I don't ave that feature.
What another thing can I do?.
Did love that feature, but it's not working anymore on chrome :(
Is auto hide in full screen really that freaking hard to put in…
Did love that feature, but it's not working anymore on chrome
Mate its working on Dev Builds
It's in the stable now, but I've noticed that the address bar isn't automatically selected when you launch a new tab. It's a tad irritating.
+1 for Dan's complaint. I have been using it for about a week and can't get used to it not automatically selecting the address bar. I constantly hit ctrl-t to open a new tab and (normally) just start typing whatever it is I need. With this on I start typing, realize the address bar isn't selected, and have to go select it. Annoying indeed.
Anyone know a way to fix this? Some weird setting someplace hidden from we computer mortals?

The Utah Division of Workforce Services Castle Dale office has a new home after many years in various locations. An open house was recently held to celebrate the new building and the expansion of services offered. Manager of the Emery County Employment Center, Delena Fish welcomed those in attendance at the open house.
Judy Chambley spoke to those present, she is the regional director of workforce services. The Utah State Workforce Services Director, Raylene Ireland spoke at the open house. She said she likes how the new office is situated in the county. It gives increased visibility with its central location. She described the Castle Dale office as having friendly people who understand the resources available. "It is an exceptional office with exceptional people and I foresee a long and satisfying, beneficial relationship with the community and county." Ireland visited the old office as her first assignment as the state director of workforce services and told them at that time she would be there when the new building was finished.
Blaine Crawford, deputy director of workforce services, spoke at the open house and said he visited Emery County a lot as a youth. He had a grandfather who lived in Castle Dale. "I hated to come over here because there's not as much activity in Castle Dale as in Price for a youth. A couple of years ago I came over to the workforce services building and got out at a grocery store in a strip mall. It was not a desirable place but the quality of the people working here more that made up for the location. Things have changed in Emery County with the gas wells and the population growth. It's not about a new building though, it's about people and building relationships. We deal with people who are not at a great time in their lives. They are having a little trouble and it's great to be able to lend a helping hand to get beyond the hurdle. The new building will help lend better access for the whole county to get the help they need and we're glad for that to happen."
Fish said the morale of the whole team has changed since moving into the new building. It has increased our ability to provide good services to our clients and enlarged our services and accessibility. She also described some of the services available at the workforce services. At the self-help center job seekers can search online services which are available at jobs.utah.gov. This website helps to connect job seekers and employers. Job seekers can also receive help in writing a resume and can also access the internet site of Americas job bank. The DWS also offers workshops for job seekers to help them in their job search. They are taught how to fill out resumes and how to succeed at a job interview. One of the features of the new building is an onsite training center for the DWS employees, in the past employees have had to go to other DWS offices for training. Employees will receive needed training without leaving the building.
Another feature of the new building is the spacious conference area for meetings. This area is also being made available to the general public for any meetings they might need to hold. The local ATV club has already made use of the facility. The entire building is wheelchair accessible and easier for those with handicaps to use. Employees meet with clients in private cubicles which aids the client in feeling comfortable with their surroundings. Sensitive issues are dealt with in the privacy of offices which are available for the use of all employees and their clients.
A general reception area awaits the client as they come in the door. Computers are also available for job seekers to check the jobs on the website. The job seeker will be assisted in any way possible to aid in their job search. Another service offered at DWS is the skills testing of clients for employers. Numerous tests are given to match clients with skills to employers with open positions.
The Castle Dale office was in line for a new facility when funding became available and it has been in the planning stages for the last five years. Five agencies were combined to create the Department of Workforce Services. The department of human services and supportive services like medicaid and food stamps, the old job service, JTPA and the office of child care were all combined under one umbrella to increase the quality of life for individuals while becoming employable. Fish believes this combining has been a good move.
"It's a wonderful thing, providing supportive services while people progress. With the new agency I think we are duplicating services less and can plan more for career development. It's a good process," said Fish. "We also offer training services, we have money available to those who are eligible to help them further their training and employability; these services could include helping them obtain a two-year associate's degree, vocational training and other related training to enhance their skills and obtain better paying jobs. We also offer classes in lifeskills and assertiveness, budgeting classes, how not to be a victim, communication and many others......these are available to the general public at no cost. We offer an array of opportunities."
Fish said that the employees all have an enthusiasm for their jobs and are delighted with the new facility. Emery County Employment Center staff are: Susan Sitterud, supervisor; Wayne Tuttle, information specialist; Karla Powell, employment counselor; Margaret Fielding, employment counselor; Dale Roper, business consultant; Debby Orton, employment counselor; Debra Warrington, employment counselor; Debbie Thornton, eligibility specialist; Debbie Smith, eligibility specialist; Elizabeth Thorpe, eligibility specialist; Vicki Jensen, employment counselor and Kay Early, green thumb.

We're doomed with Herb Kohl
by Radio Joe
posted Mar 29 2013 5:14PM
Thursday night, Sparky asked me who was going to win between the Bucks and Lakers. Despite a four-game losing streak, I said the Bucks would win. Why? Well, why do you think?
If you've followed the Bucks to some extent this season, you'll be aware that the Bucks like to play guessing games with the fans of Milwaukee and SE Wisconsin. They can come out and play their best against the best of the best, and then struggle to defeat the worst of the worst. Every time you want to hop onto the Bucks bandwagon, you're forced off of it. Then, when you're not paying attention to the team, the Bucks get on a roll. And when a nice stretch of wins grabs the fans' attention, what happens? The Bucks turn the winning streak into a losing streak…
I'm sick of it…I feel like I'm in
The Twilight Zone
Rod Serling:
This is Joe Zenzola. He works in sports radio. For years, Joe has been a die-hard Bucks fan. However, in this last season, he's been on a roller coaster of emotions with his favorite basketball team. Every time the team is winning consistently, Joe begins to express how the Bucks could be a force in the NBA. But as soon as he does that, his team starts a trend of losing streaks. And once he wants to blow up the team and rebuild, the Bucks start to win again. Joe is just as disoriented as other Bucks' fans. The Bucks' successes and failures will drive Joe to madness. What Joe doesn't know is…he's really in… 'The Twilight Zone'.
The latest example of this came on the day of the NBA Trade Deadline. Furious beyond belief, I did not like the J.J. Redick trade. The Bucks gave up too much to get him; I guess I would have felt a little better if the Bucks also landed Josh Smith, but that turned out to be a failed deal because Atlanta wanted Larry Sanders (Thank God, Bucks management didn't deal the SWAT Man!).
The Redick deal, however, was puzzling. Yes, when the Bucks were playing great basketball earlier in the season, I felt they could use an extra shooter. But after seeing the inconsistency of maintaining a winning record and a chance to move up in the Eastern Conference playoff race, acquiring an extra shooter was meaningless. This season, like so many in the last several years, has been more repetitive than brushing my teeth. Ready to throw in the towel for the season, I believed it was time for a drastic change…
Instead of trying to make the eighth seed quota that Herb Kohl seems to be infatuated with, I felt it was time to blow up the team, rebuild it around Sanders and Henson, and move forward. Many fans would agree, I'll do ANYTHING to see the Bucks win just ONE NBA Title in my lifetime! Once the Redick deal was made, though, the Bucks got on a role…
While filling in for several of the Robert Haack Diamonds Basketball Post Game Shows, there was one night where the Bucks were just three games behind the Nets for the fourth seed in the East. The fourth! At that point, I actually pondered kissing Herb Kohl and John Hammond's feet. Could this be a sign of another FEAR THE DEER run? J.J. Redick was doing a great job off the bench, Monta Ellis was stepping up his game to another level, and Brandon Jennings, knowing he needs to do something to raise his value, decided to pass the ball around more. Nonetheless, this formula was working and the Bucks were winning…I cannot believe I almost wanted to apologize to Bucks management.
And then…another losing streak started…
Since winning six of eight after the Redick deal (including a 2-1 west coast road trip), the Bucks are 3-7. Bucks fans, I'm tired of the roller coaster ride. I hope you are, too.
Whenever I'm negative and pessimistic, they win. Whenever I'm excited and optimistic, they lose. I can't take it anymore. Here are three things worth noting; one of those is a special message directed towards the Senator.
First, observe all the big wins and bad defeats for the Bucks this season…
Big Bucks wins:
Celtics x3
Pacers x2
Bulls x2
Warriors x2
Nets x2
Mavs x1
Heat x1
Rockets x1
Jazz x1
Lakers x1
Bad Bucks defeats:
Pistons x3
Cavs x2
Wizards x2
Bobcats x1
T-Wolves x1
Hornets x1
Sixers x1
(Oh, and by the way, the Bucks still need to face the Bobcats twice, and the T-Wolves, Magic, and Raptors all once. Don't expect 5-0, folks)
Secondly, over on Facebook, I posted a poll question. "Yes or no, would you blow up and rebuild the Bucks' organization?" Of 200 responses, only 25 people on the 1250 Facebook page said 'No.' Well, Mr. Senator?
Now a message for Senator Kohl…
Mr. Senator, you are a man of the people, correct?
You were one of two senators to represent the people of the State of Wisconsin for a long time, right?
Now, you run a business, correct?
Yes, we're talking about the business of the Milwaukee Bucks. In order to be successful in a business, you need to put out a product that consumers want to buy into. Consumers will make it clear what they want. So, Mr. Senator, give the consumers what they want. You represented people while in political office, so why can't you represent the fans of this city? Why can't you give them what they want?
Look at these names…Corey Maggette…and Stephen Jackson…and John Salmons…and Drew Gooden…and Richard Jefferson…among others…ARE NOT THE ANSWERS. You can't expect to put a winning team on the court with names like these. Well aware of the finiancial situation, I understand getting a superstar to Milwaukee is impossible. However, you can find other avenues…And if you can't, then do what the people say.
If seven of every eight fans want to blow this thing up, what is so difficult about that? I'll blame myself if that leads to 20 straight seasons of failure; I'm cool with that! It's time to start taking some risks. Most buisness take risks...You have nothing to lose, Mr. Senator.
You're attendance is crap anyway. A .500 basketball team with an eighth seeded playoff appearance is unacceptable for any fan base. That doesn't win you a championship. Why should that mentality fly?! REBUILD this franchise. Otherwise, sell the team, make your millions, and retire. This franchise can only be successful if the owner knows what he or she is doing. With all due respect, Senator Kohl, as an owner of an NBA franchise, you
don't know
what you're doing.
I'm convinced this team is doomed with you at the helm…I'm sorry.
Disappointed, flustered, and irritated, I don't know what else to say. I'm sick of the constant guessing games and roller coaster rides. This isn't some emotional theme park. I want the Bucks to be the best team in the league; I want them to win an NBA title. And so do you Bucks fans…
We deserve better.
This offseason might be the biggest offseason in the franchise's history. There are several directions to go, and it will be interesting to see where Herb Kohl and John Hammond decide to take this organization. Just make this team better in the long haul…
In the meantime, Bucks fans, watch this video. If you have to, scream it out your window. You may feel better about yourself…
I'm as mad as hell as and I'm not going to take this anymore!

Until next time, Milwaukee….

Take heart -- and keep on livingPosted Thursday, July 5, 2012, at 5:19 PM
I am remembering a song by one of my favorite singer/songwriters, John Denver. The words talk about the fluctuations in life. It goes something like: "Some days are diamonds, some days are stones ... Some times the hard times, just won't leave me alone ... Sometimes the cold wind, leaves a chill in my bones ... Some days are diamonds, some days are stones."
All I can say, in the words of the infamous Cowardly Lion, is "Ain't it the troot ... Ain't it the troot."
Seems like there are times when a person just sails along, catching every favorable breeze that blows and coming out ahead at the end of the day. At other times, however, it seems that the wind catches your sails and turns you about when you least expect it. Waves crash and sails rip and blue skies on the horizon are hard to find.
Kind of reminds me of another song, which states "Sometimes you're the windshield, sometimes you're the bug." Ouch!
Truth is, we live life these days at a dizzying pace. And everyone around lives life at a dizzying pace. We miss a step here and there and, just maybe, we stumble and fall. Sometimes, in our race to do things better and in a more timely fashion, we miss the mark and our tasks seem to overwhelm our intentions; even to laugh at our seeming lack of ability.
And frankly, some folks seem to want us to falter, or fall, or, ultimately, to fail. They may even throw obstacles in our path to better facilitate a misstep, and that's unfortunate for them. They are the ones who will lose in the end.
But take heart and hold to hope. Unlike that bug splattered on the windshield, we live through those difficult times. The wind and waves that toss us about finally subside; we gain control of the sail and rudder, and we tack back to the safety of a secluded harbor or on toward the blue skies and sunshine of some distant horizon.
And we go on doing what we do best -- we go on living.

Bully special is a type of cocktail that became a favourite of UK gamblers in the late 90's to either celebrate winning - or drown sorrows when losing. It consists of 3 parts scotch, 3 parts Absynth, 2 parts pineapple juice and 1 part rum. It is quite vile in taste, expensive and very bad for the consumers health. They are sometimes served lit on fire for dramatic affect.
Ian went to the bar and asked Dave what he fancied, Dave said come on then, get me a Bully Special. They both ended up in the local jail later that night!

Fiction. "What in the hell!?" Coach Friendly is not happy. Dr. Cram got knocked out cold while bricking his signature dunk, the GatorJam, and the Pisces have a huge game tomorrow against the Bachelors. Maybe the solution lies with the strange men sleeping in Oscar Ortega's private jet, or maybe the place to look is Dr. Andrew Weil's jean shorts (like jeans he had cut off so as to make shorts). In THE PISCES, Ben Gocker throws a no-look pass to basketball literature and reminds us that success in love is one thing while success in business is a whole other ball of wax.

"Great looking shoe, versatile neutral grey and high quality leather. BUT...You can see the bottom of your toes where they meet your foot which looked odd and made my feet look like they were crammed even though the shoe fit perfectly. I'm in TX, so I may be a tad style-challenged; maybe it's fashionably acceptable to see that part of your foot in a shoe. If thats the case and/or you don't care about the toe thing then I have no further complaints about this shoe and would highly recommend buying it."

By Lena Mitchell/NEMS Daily Journal
CORINTH – The transition of leadership for the Corinth Area Convention and Visitors Bureau/tourism council was completed Thursday with the first meeting of new board members, election of officers and acceptance of the resignation of Executive Director Kristy White.
Board member Luke Doehner, who was reappointed after completing one term on the previous board, was elected board president; Pauline Sorrell, who previously had begun serving her first term, was reappointed and elected vice president; and new appointee Sandy Mitchell was elected secretary/treasurer.
Other board members attending include Laura Albright, Billy Taylor, Russell Smith and Danny Timmons.
The board accepted the resignation of Kristy White, who submitted her two-week notice on Jan. 3. Thursday was her final work day. Program director Karen Beth Martin had submitted her resignation on Jan. 4, and is using accrued vacation as her two-week notice period.
The board went into executive session, with Alcorn County Supervisor Tim Mitchell and county attorney Bill Davis in attendance, to discuss further particulars of the job openings.
The board will meet again at 8 a.m. Jan. 24, to establish requirements for a new executive director and advertise for the position.
Doehner speculated that they might accept applications and resumes for three weeks before closing the application period, and noted that he already had received four resumes and letters of interest. In further discussions, the board agreed it would give priority to local applicants who are familiar with Corinth, Alcorn County and the local area.

Emery High graduates and their parents and families gathered in the auditorium for graduation exercises on May 24. There were 148 students graduating from Emery High. Bryan Ison, senior class vice president, welcomed all the parents, family, special guests, the school board members, faculty and staff.
"This is the 44th class to graduate from Emery High," Ison said. "We welcome you to the auditorium for this graduation instead of the Spartan Center. We felt it would make for a more respectful atmosphere than in a gymnasium. As a part of the program tonight, we would like everyone to remember Dallas Allred, our classmate who passed away this year."
Kesler Tanner announced several awards. "We usually give a teacher of the year award, but this year we would like to give a counselor of the year award. Adele Huntington has helped students receive more than $1 million in scholarships during her time here at Emery High." Huntington is retiring this year, and was given a quilt.
Tanner went on to recognize Kelly Alton. "Mr. Alton has taught for 23 years. He has been a teacher, librarian, and assistant principal," said Tanner. Alton was also given a quilt, and this is his last year at Emery.
Class salutatorian Brittanie Clarke spoke and thanked her parents for all they have done. "We didn't do this alone, there are parents, many teachers, friends, counselors and advisors who have helped us get to this point," she stated.
Shalae Cox, an honor student at Emery High, spoke next. She spoke about leaving the nest. "Human beings are the only species that raise their young, the young leave, and sometimes they come back. About 40 percent of those who leave, return one day." She wondered if all of the graduates were really ready to fly. "We are graduating, not finishing. The real courage is not in the winning, but it is in the trying," she concluded.
Dare to Dream Big was the topic of Camille Fehlberg's comments. "I've always dreamed about winning state in the hurdles. Last week I had that opportunity. All of the graduates here tonight have dreams," she said. "We can't make our dreams come true by ourselves." She said many people help and encourage us along the way including coaches, parents, teachers and counselors.
Senior class president Amy Lofley related the story of how two years ago when this class were sophomores, the administration called them together and told them they were the worst class they had ever seen. "I found this hard to believe considering Darrell Gardner, Neal Peacock and Kevin Reynolds had gone to school here," she said. She then went on to list the accomplishments of the Class of 2007 and concluded they didn't turn out too bad. "I'm proud to be a part of the best class ever."
The Valedictory address was given by Kesler Tanner. He told of being a member of the baseball team which went to the state competition last week and no one expected them to win anything. "Stephen Giles always says before a game that somebody has to win, why not us?" said Tanner. "We dared to struggle, now dare to win."
Principal Gwen Callahan presented the graduating class to the school board saying, "These students have met the standards for graduation." Laurel Johansen, president of the school board accepted the class for graduation.
Johansen and board member Sam Singleton presented diplomas to the Class of 2007.
Following the awarding of diplomas, Callahan told the students, "I want to leave you with five things. Number one, listen to your parents and go to college. Number two, don't be afraid to make commitments. Number three, be merciful. Number four is you must give the most to get the most. Number five is to remember that trouble and pain are a part of life, and everyone will experience some of them. Good luck in the future," concluded Callahan.
The graduates met in the old gym with family and friends for photos and the graduation party began at Cheddar Field following commencement.
Graduation is always a bittersweet experience. The graduate is filled with excitement for the future, but always feels a bit apprehensive in leaving the past behind. This graduation is especially poignant for the Green River High class of 2007. They are dealing with the loss of a close friend, Jace Vetere who passed away recently from a motorcycle accident. As they prepare to step into their future, they want everyone and Jace to know he will never be forgotten.
Green River is a close knit community and everyone turns out for every activity and event. The graduation is no exception as the entire village shared in the experience of preparing these students to face the world.
The class of 2007 entered the auditorium and took their places on stage. Parker Hatt, class president welcomed everyone. Hatt recited the class motto which is: "Our lives are before us. Our past is behind us. But, our memories are forever with us." Hatt said their class will always hold the memory of Jace strong in their hearts. He introduced the class Salutatorian, Abigail Dunham who spoke, "We all have the ability to make a difference. We have the opportunity to change the world." Dunham cautioned her classmates not to pick up the motto, that other people's problems are other peoples problems. "Sometimes we get lost in our own little world. Life is sometimes compared to a journey. I picture this journey being taken in a boat; trying to find our golden dreams before we sink. The most important thing is who we throw life jackets to along the way. For those people, you did change the world. The most valuable thing we have is our time, use it to help others," said Dunham.
Dunham told the story of a young girl she had met in Nepal. She had been born unwanted, the result of an unplanned pregnancy. A lady asked the mom if she could take the baby to the childrens home and the mother granted permission. There the child would receive the medical attention required. The young girl didn't have a name so the lady named her Shristi which means creation in Nepali. Dunham speculated the young girl would never have survived if someone hadn't taken the time to get involved and help the young girl to have a better life. Shristi still lives in the childrens home. "When you see a need, then act. You have changed the world. Everyone has the ability to make a difference," said Dunham.
McKenzie Spadafora, class Valedictorian spoke next. She said her feelings were bittersweet as they close the volume on this book of their lives and begin another. She said, "I am filled with pride to be part of the class of 2007. It has been an honor to rub shoulders with you. We will be moving away from our support system. It is bittersweet because we don't know if or when our paths will cross again. I went to Google for help in giving you advice. Remember compliments and forget insults; read the directions even if you don't plan to follow them; wear sunscreen,"
Spadafora said their futures lie before them like freshly fallen snow. Every step they take will show. Don't live down to someone else's expectations of you. Do something remarkable. She quoted the lines of a song from the Broadway show, Wicked. It tells that everyone comes into our lives for a reason. Though we may never meet again. So much of me is what I made from you, because you have placed a hand print on my heart. I have been changed for the good, because I knew you, concluded Spadafora.
Savannah Bayles, class Valedictorian said it's what lies within us that is important. Everyone will take their personal strengths and carry them forward in their next phase of life. She told the story of an eagle who had been raised by chickens and believed himself to be a chicken. One day he saw a band of proud eagles flying over and he wished to soar with them, but his chicken companions told him he would never be anything but a chicken and to forget his dream to fly with the eagles, because chickens don't fly. The eagle died a chicken. You become what you dream, follow your dreams; don't be a chicken. Windows of knowledge and opportunity abound, don't remain a chicken. Set your aim high, strengthen yourself.
"With our bond of friendship we have pulled through adversity, we have known joys, we have grown. In our hearts we will always be the class of 2007 and no one will be forgotten. Our lives are before us. Our past is behind us. But our memories are forever with us," said Bayles.
The senior class sang a song, 'Keep Holding On' and a slide show was presented which was prepared by Kalynn Fail. A special picture tribute to Jace Vetere was part of the presentation.
Principal Nolan Johnson presented the diplomas to the class of 2007. A diploma was also presented to Timothy Jace Vetere and accepted by Tim Vetere. School Board member Royd Hatt accepted each of the graduates. The graduates then lined up outside the building where friends and family congratulated the graduates.

visitors to
National Gallery of Australia Travelling Exhibitions
It is a tribute to the National Gallery of Australia that they are celebrating the five millionth visitor to their Travelling Exhibition Program, and a demonstration of the Australian Government's commitment to bringing the highest quality art to all Australians. This program helps to make the Gallery a truly national institution.
The Federal Minister for the Arts and Sport, Senator Rod Kemp
July 2003
In the 20th-anniversary year of the National Gallery of Australia, the 5 millionth visitor to an NGA travelling exhibition is Mr Brenton Niemz at the Riddoch Art Gallery in Mount Gambier, South Australia.
Mr Niemz, a 17-year-old Mt Gambier high school student, attended the opening by Senior Curator of International Prints and Drawings, Jane Kinsman, of Out and About: The National Gallery tours Australia, featuring Andy Warhol's Elvis (1963); part of the Gallery's flagship project for its 20th anniversary celebrations.
Travelling exhibitions are a vital part of the Gallery's strategy for providing access to works of art for a wide audience beyond Canberra — in regional, remote and metropolitan areas throughout Australia, and internationally. Since its official launch in 1988, the National Gallery of Australia Travelling Exhibitions Program has seen 88 exhibitions (including the ongoing Elaine and Jim Wolfensohn Gift travelling exhibitions) visit over 700 locations. This occasion also marks 15 years of generous support by the program's sponsor, Australian Air Express.

Too hard
Posted by abbyca on Apr 29, 2011
These chips were too hard to be crispy. I could taste the jackfruit, but I felt like I was going to break a tooth every time I bit into a chip.
Posted by Reviewer2759314 on Jul 04, 2011
These are delicious and really addictive! Lucky theyre vegetables haha! But also very filling. The bag contents was much less than I anticipated though.

Fruit chips

I found the taste to be sickening sweet. will not reorder.
Terrrible, had to throw away.
Posted by 4831614951972147245 on Jun 03, 2013
Uh, why does this product have such high ratings? It's terrible. It is not sweet, or salty, it is so bland and hard to chew on. I would rather eat something better.
My Favorite!

I never heard of jack fruit and still have never seen it, not even at Whole Foods. Took a chance and what a good decision. I now must have a bag every time I get in the car! Good snack for traveling and an unusually terrific fruit.
One of my favorites
Posted by 5371393735207845021 on Sep 27, 2013
I'm not familiar with jackfruit so I didn't know what to expect. These are puffy, crunchy, and sweet (with no sugar added). The flavor is a bit like mango, but with a fluffy crunchy texture that you don't get from dried mango.

Sweet yummy Jackfruit
Posted by 5049276752468194435 on Jul 28, 2014
My granddaughter is picky so I was pleased that she and her brother loved these. Their extra thickness means they eat them slower so they last longer!! No extra sugar is also great but I wish some other oil was used.

When you're looking for a simple meal-in-one, pull out a skillet. Most will go from cooktop to oven to table, making a great choice for weeknight dinners or entertaining. This casual serving piece holds a dual advantage--not only will you have minimal cleanup, but a meal served in a skillet is warmly inviting. Your guests will feel like family.
Skillet meals don't have to be run-of-the-mill though. These recipes possess flavor and flair as well as appealing presentation. They also are doable for a busy cook. Once you've completed the short preparation time required, you slide Lima Bean Cassoulet into the oven, leaving you free for other activities. It emerges fragrant, bubbling, and full of stick-to-your-ribs comfort.
Creole Fried Rice and Pork Chops, Cabbage, and Apples are both cooked entirely on the stovetop to deliver great taste, eye appeal, and freshness. In fact, the festive appearance and Louisiana style of the fried rice make it a fine choice to serve at a Mardi Gras party this month.
A great skillet is an indispensable piece of cookware. Choosing the right one is a highly personal process though. You don't need to shop expensively for a skillet that performs well, but quality definitely pays off in the long run. Here are some things our Foods staff recommends you look for when shopping, along with a few of our favorite selections. Cookware often goes on sale in April, so if you got a gift certificate for Christmas, you may want to hang onto it until spring.
