It's no secret that agriculture has long had a tumultuous relationship with the Environmental Protection Agency. And for good reason. From Clean Water Act lawsuits to releasing private information about livestock farms to even proposing dust regulations, it's easy to see why farmers might regard the agency with a skeptical eye. However, Sarah Bittleman, ag counselor for the EPA, recently told AgriTalk that the agency is working to change that attitude. "I am very sorry that folks feel that EPA is targeting them or penalizing them; that is not our intention, nor is it our goal," Bittleman said. "What the administrator is really trying to do ... is to get the message out that instead of feeling penalized, we're trying to get to a place where we're actually helping farmers and ranchers do their jobs better." She said the agency plans to achieve this by giving producers more scientific information, and working with producers and conservation groups to improve practices and eventually achieve cleaner water, air and land. Bittleman said she thinks this coincides with what producers already seek to do. "What I know about agriculture is that agriculture is always improving what they do," she said. "They're improving their yields, they're improving their use of pesticides and herbicides, they're reducing runoff, they're improving their soil health, and EPA wants to be a partner in that." Bittleman explained that one of the agency's goals is to get more EPA workers to spend more time out on farms and ranches so they can better understand what farmers and ranchers already do to help the environment. From there, she said, they can determine whether those practices work within current EPA regulations so farmers can get credit for what they are already doing. "We really want to respect the work that folks are already doing out there. It seems only fair," she said. But what about EPA regulatory overreach? And what about the agency releasing producers' private information through the Freedom of Information Act? "What we think is that there's been a lot of confusion in this area," Bittleman said.

Behind the Name: TayZonday
TayZonday tells us how he came up with his YouTube username:
"When I created a YouTube account in early 2007, I wanted a catchy artist name that had zero search results on Google. I entered catchy names on Google and 'Tay Zonday' got zero search results. That way, I knew the name would be mine. It was also easy to spell if somebody overheard 'Tay Zonday' in conversation and pretty easy to remember. I registered tayzonday.com, tayzonday.net and took the name on Google. I signed up for many websites as 'TayZonday' to claim the name. Now whenever there's a new website, I usually have to ask if I can have the name 'TayZonday' because somebody else took it first. Then I show up as 'Tay Zonday' and people think I'm impersonating me."
Read other "Behind the Names" with Venetian Princess and MuggleSam, and tell us in the comments below if there's someone whose username you find particularly mystifying. We'll try to get to the bottom of the story and report back to Creator's Corner.

Success Story
Milton East Elementary School
Milton School District
Grade Level: Elementary School (K-3)
Enrollment: 350
Profile Date: February 2010
Our PBIS Story
Milton Police Chief Jerry Schuetz recently visited his daughter's kindergarten classroom to read a book to the students. He asked the students what they knew about being good citizens and in return answered their questions about being a police officer.
Chief Schuetz was very impressed by the knowledge these young citizens had. He was even more impressed by the core values the children were learning at such a young age. He found the entire class knew the school's core values by heart: be responsible, respectful, safe, and kind. They also knew the behaviors and the actions that reflect those values in all areas of the school.
The values of responsibility, respect, safety, and kindness reflected what the chief's two school-age children, who attend Milton East Elementary, refer to as "The East Way." As he spoke with the children at school he was reminded about how these simple words relate a lot to what they are called to do in police work and in keeping our community safe.
The ordinances and laws adopted in the City of Milton, along with their enforcement, reflect desired behaviors from citizens of the community and focus on keeping citizens safe by encouraging behaviors that are consistent with those core values. PBIS is helping to instill those same values in today's students.
As Chief Jerry Schuetz reflected on that day he said, "These core values, if exhibited by all Milton residents at all times, would certainly make police work a lot less eventful."

Vasiliko is located 8 km SE of Chalkida. The settlement is in the historic Lilantio Pedio (Plain of Lilantio), which according to Greek writer K. Palamas is the most "fruitful plain" of Evia at present. The old square, the manor houses, the Frankish tower and the church of Panaghia (Holy Mother) are worth visiting. The coastal settlement of Lefkantio is located 2 km away from Vasiliko. In the Plain of Lilantio, to the NE of Vasiliko, you will find the settlement of Fylla with the Venetian Castle of Likari (Kastelli, 13th -15th centuries) as well as Andreas Miaoulis' house behind the sanctuary of the church of Panaghia. The two identical Frankish towers in the village of Mytikas (3 km NW) are also worth a visit.

The PSU Institute for Asian Studies and First Saturday East Asian Program Committee present
From Asphalt to Chinese Literati Garden: the story of Portland's Chinese Garden
This program will focus on Portland's Lan Su Chinese Garden as an example of urban development and the transformation of an inert asphalt parking lot into a living garden. Beyond physical changes, it represents the creation of a nondescript piece of land into a "place" imbued with the intelligence history of a unique literati culture that transcends national boundaries to create a public inspiring retreat of subtle sensual beauty and spirituality to be shared with visitors of different backgrounds.
Ben Ngan, landscape architect and past Board member of the Chinese Classical Garden and Chinese Garden Society, shares his insights and visual images of the development of Portland's Chinese garden from its original concept through construction and completion of the project.
Join us for this visual, historical journey to see how Portland's Garden of the Awakening Orchid (Lansuyuan) emerged from an asphalt parking lot into one of the finest classical Chinese Literati Garden outside China.
Free and Open to the Public
DATE: Saturday, March 2, 2013
LOCATION: PSU Urban Bldg Room 250 (507 SW Mills St.), PSU campus & parking map>>
This event is part of the First Saturday East Asian Program Series co-sponsored by the Institute for Asian Studies and the First Saturday Program Committee.

HOLLYWOOD, FL--(Marketwired - Apr 8, 2013) - The future of the vacation ownership industry looks bright based on findings announced today by RCI, the global leader in vacation exchange and part of the Wyndham Worldwide family of brands (
"As the world's largest vacation exchange network with nearly 3.7 million members, RCI has its finger on the pulse of today's owner and is in a unique position to share valuable insights with the rest of the industry," said Phil Brojan, senior vice president of marketing, RCI. "Our latest research shows that consumers are happy with the ownership experience, and the flexibility and choice they receive through vacation exchange programs play a big part in that."
The 2013 RCI® Membership Profile Survey, conducted by marketing analytics firm MineTech, Inc., polled a sampling of RCI subscribing members in the United States through an opt-in online survey. Strong ownership satisfaction, high household incomes, a desire for repeat purchases, and a propensity for frequent travel were just a few of the many reasons for optimism in the vacation ownership industry.
The findings from the RCI survey reinforce the positive outlook presented in The American Resort Development Association's Shared Vacation Ownership Owners Report released last fall. That study showed that fewer owners feel their vacation plans are being impacted by the economy and more owners intend to keep their vacation ownership going forward. The study also showed that more owners are taking vacation and fewer are cutting back on travel expenses.
Affinity for Vacation Ownership
According to the RCI survey, 83 percent of respondents are satisfied with their current vacation ownership. Furthermore, 1.5 million members (62 percent) report that they own two weeks or more of vacation ownership per year.
A strong link between ownership satisfaction and future vacation ownership purchases was also revealed, with a significant portion of members expressing interest in buying additional vacation ownership. The Southeastern U.S. and the Caribbean were the most desired purchase locations.
Significant Buying Power
The typical owner not only has the intent to acquire more vacation ownership, they also have the purchasing power. More than 1.2 million consumers, nearly half of all U.S. RCI members, have an annual income of $100,000 or greater, with over 500,000 of those members reporting annual incomes of $150,000 or higher. The survey also reveals that 40 percent of respondents own real estate in addition to their primary residence and vacation ownership.
Savvy and Frequent Travelers
The owners identified in RCI's member survey traveled away from home nearly four weeks (24 nights) each year, far exceeding the vacation time of the average U.S. traveler. Domestically, Florida remains the vacation ownership capital with nearly two in three respondents planning to visit in the next two years, followed by California and Hawaii. Those planning international travel cited the Caribbean, Europe and Mexico as their most likely vacation spots.
"With an average annual income of nearly $120,000, our members are affluent travelers who have both the desire and the means to take frequent vacations," added Brojan. "When you also factor in their high satisfaction level and desire for additional purchases, it's clear that resort developers have a great opportunity for growth among existing owners."
The Value of Vacation Exchange
According to another study conducted by Chadwick Martin Bailey, vacation exchange continues to be a critical piece of the vacation ownership experience. Approximately three in four prospective consumers indicated that an exchange company affiliation is an important consideration during the purchasing decision. About the same percentage of existing owners said that affiliation played a vital factor as well.
Added flexibility and variety were among the most popular reasons given for the importance of selecting a resort affiliated with an exchange company. Both prospective consumers and current owners want to have a wide selection of vacation options to choose from and to be able to travel at different times throughout the year.
To receive a copy of RCI's white paper detailing key findings from the 2013 RCI Membership Profile Survey, contact your RCI account executive or send an email to firstname.lastname@example.com.
About RCI
RCI is the worldwide leader in vacation exchange with over 4,000 affiliated resorts in approximately 100 countries. RCI pioneered the concept of vacation exchange in 1974, offering members increased flexibility and versatility with their vacation ownership experience. Today, through the RCI® Weeks program, the traditional week-for-week exchange system, and the RCI Points® program, the industry's first global points-based exchange system, RCI provides flexible vacation options to its approximately 3.7 million RCI subscribing members each year. RCI is part of Wyndham Exchange & Rentals and the Wyndham Worldwide family of brands (

Fees part of overall infrastructure financing strategy
Mayor Don Wesely today congratulated the City Council for approving impact fees, saying the action was a victory for fairness that will help pay for the growth of the City.
"This is an important first step to address a long-standing gap in infrastructure financing," said Mayor Wesely. "Impact fees were recommended by a mayoral committee for consideration in 1995. The fact is that it is reasonable to expect new growth to pay its fair share. Instead of unfair and time-consuming case-by-case negotiations, we now have a fair, open and accountable system to help cover the cost of the new roads, parks and other infrastructure in developing areas of our community. Consumers win, developers win and Lincoln wins."
The one-time impact fee will be paid at the time building permits are issued. The fee for a single-family home will begin at $2,500 and will be phased in over five years to $4,500.
The City has been studying infrastructure financing for several years. With the formal adoption of impact fees to cover part of the infrastructure gap, Wesely said the community can continue moving forward in completing an overall strategy to finance water, sewers, parks and streets in existing and new areas of Lincoln. Monday's vote advances the work of the Infrastructure Finance Committee, which has been working on the infrastructure gap that remains with the passage of impact fees. The committee will not re-visit the impact fee issue.
The 14-member committee is chaired by Brad Korell, a Board Member and Past President of the Chamber of Commerce and Downtown Lincoln Association and President of Wells Fargo Bank in Lincoln; Jan Gauger, former Lancaster County Commissioner and President of One More Time Consignment Sales; and Russ Bayer, past chair of the Lincoln-Lancaster County Planning Commission and CFO and co-owner of Data Support Systems.
The committee is scheduled to complete its work by June 2003. Impact fees will be implemented June 1, 2003.

In the summer of 1942, the French police arrested thousands of Jewish families and held them outside of Paris before shipping them off to Auschwitz. On the 60th anniversary of the roundups, an expatriate American journalist covering the atrocities discovers a personal connectionher apartment was formerly occupied by one such family. She resolves to find out what happened to Sarah, the 10-year-old daughter, who was the only family member to survive. The story is heart-wrenching, and Polly Stone gives an excellent performance, keeping a low-key tone through descriptions of horror that would elicit excessive dramatics from a less talented performer. Her characters are easy to differentiate, and her French accent is convincing. De Rosnay's novel is captivating, and the powerful narration gives it even greater impact.

Birthday cake, 2007
Same recipe - mocca cake with toasted almonds - just this time down-sized to feed 7 hungry adults and 2 ravenous kids. Oh, I did mix some milk curd cream into the filling, so it'd be healthier, sorry, tastier..

That looks fab! It reminds me of an old coffee cake my gran used to make but I'll be darned if I can find the recipe (or anything like it).
Q: When you say "whipped cream" you mean British whipping cream? Not, American whipped cream, right?

K & S, Shayne, Neil, Ivonne - thank you!
Sciencemel - yes, I think you'd call it whipping cream in the UK, although you could use double cream, too. The cream I use has 35% fat content, and then I whip it with some sugar and instant coffee. British whipping cream is 38%, I believe, and double cream is 48%.
Freya & Paul - gently folding in some milk curd cream makes the filling abit heavier and just a little bit sharper in terms of flavour. Whipped cream on its own can be a bit too sweet and creamy, really.

Israel News - Stay Informed, Pray Informed
There is a very good reason for Israel taking the Iran nuclear threat so seriously. There are a lot of people in this region, many of them holding positions of authority, who would like nothing more than to use a nuclear weapon against Israel, the consequences be damned.
One such figure admitted as much in an interview with Lebanese TV last week.
"I swear that if we had a nuke, we'd have used it this very morning," said Jibril Rajoub, Deputy Secretary of the Fatah Central Committee and Chairman of the Palestinian Authority Olympic Committee.
Rajoub explained that the Palestinian Authority only continues to play this "negotiating game" with Israel because it currently lacks the military strength to defeat the Jewish state.
This revelation validates one of Israel's chief concerns in the peace process - that in the absence of actually being educated for peace and coexistence, the inhabitants of an independent Palestinian state will, as a first order of business, work toward acquiring the military means to engage in renewed warfare against Israel.
In his previous role as head of Palestinian police and security adviser to former Palestinian leader Yasser Arafat, Rajoub was widely praised as a "moderate" by Western leaders.

Treating Minor Childhood Injuries
Treating Minor Childhood Injuries
Sports and other physical activities can help kids stay healthy and physically fit, but they can also occasionally result in injuries. Scrapes and sprains are a fact of life for most children, so it's good to know what to do when they occur.
Scrapes and cuts
When a child gets a scrape or cut, the flow of blood can make even a minor cut look like an emergency. Minor injuries should stop bleeding after a few minutes. The American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) recommends the following treatment plan:
Apply direct pressure for 5 to 10 minutes to stop any bleeding.
Wash the wound with plain water and look for any debris.
Put an antibiotic ointment on the wound. Cover the wound with an adhesive bandage or other dressing that is airtight and watertight.
When to call your child's healthcare provider
Call your child's healthcare provider if your child gets worse in any way, or if the wound:
Looks infected
Is draining pus
Is red
Becomes more painful to the touch
Strains and sprains
Generally, a strain is when the muscle has stretched too far and partly tears. It can look bruised. Pain, soreness, and swelling can develop several hours after it happens.
A sprain is a more serious injury that may involve the tearing of ligaments. In a mild sprain, the ligament is overstretched. More severe sprains can involve partial tearing of the ligament, or complete tearing.
With a sprain, the injured area usually swells right away. Your child may be in a lot of pain. Sprains can take weeks to heal and can feel like a broken bone.
Because children are more likely to break a bone than suffer a sprain, it is important to check with your child's healthcare provider if your child complains of a lot of pain, especially if it is over an area of bone. Children are still growing. Fractures that happen through the growth centers need to be followed closely.
According to the AAP, the signs and symptoms of sprains in young children can be quite similar to those for a fracture. They can include:
Swelling around the joint
Inability to walk, bear weight, or use the joint
If your child has a sprain or strain, have him or her stop putting any weight on the injured area right away. For general treatment, follow the RICE rule:
Rest the injured part
Put Ice or cold compresses on the area several times a day to reduce swelling
Compress the area with a splint or bandage to prevent swelling
Elevate the injured part so that it's above the heart.
Relieving the pain
When treating injuries from sports and other activities, pain relievers can be helpful in soothing the child and reducing inflammation. Acetaminophen and ibuprofen are pain relievers that are available over the counter. They are generally safe to use with few side effects when given in the correct dosage.
Both types of pain relievers come in liquid drops or chewable tablets that children can take easily. Ibuprofen should not be given to children ages 6 months and younger. Be sure to read the directions on the package. Don't give more than the dosage or give doses too close together. Be cautious when giving these medicines in combination with others.
Don't give your child aspirin unless your child's healthcare provider tells you to. Aspirin may cause a serious condition called Reye syndrome.
For scrapes and cuts, you may want to use a topical antibiotic ointment that contains a mild ingredient to relieve pain.
Small injuries, cuts, and bruises are bound to happen to all kids. Although these injuries may be a part of growing up, you can take precautions to help prevent more serious mishaps. To avoid injuries, the AAP recommends the following:
Children should wear correct and properly fitted protective equipment. These include neck, shoulder, elbow, chest, knee, and shin pads. They also include helmets, mouthpieces, faceguards, protective cups, and eyewear.
Condition and strengthen muscles before play.
Stretch before and after play to increase flexibility.
Include rest periods during play to prevent illness related to the heart and reduce injury.
Stop the activity if injury or pain occurs.
Drink plenty of fluids before, during, and after exercise or play.
Postpone or stop activities that are high intensity during periods of high heat or humidity.
Wear clothing that is right for the weather.
It's also a good idea to keep a first aid kit on hand, just in case an accident occurs.
More serious injuries
Call your child's healthcare provider, or seek medical care right away for any of the following:
A wound that does not stop bleeding after several minutes of pressure
A cut that has ragged edges, has skin edges that are far apart, or is especially long or deep
Redness, bruising, pus, drainage, or swelling that has increased
The injured area feels numb
A popping sound occurs during the injury. This can mean completely torn ligaments.
An injured body part that is oddly bent or misshapen
Any major injury involving the head or face
Complaints of increasing pain or difficulty breathing

|Adolescent Behavior
In the United States, there has already been widespread preparation for the HIV vaccine efficacy trials. Since the first HIV vaccine trial enrolled volunteers in 1988, there have been numerous clinical trials of different vaccine candidates studied through NIAID's vaccine evaluation program. Since the outcome of a prophylactic HIV vaccine trial depends in part on the compliance of volunteers, one major effort that has been made is to determine the readiness of several high-risk populations to participate in vaccine trials. Numerous studies on the feasibility and willingness to participate in an adult HIV vaccine trial have already been conducted.
Increased willingness to participate has been found to be associated with high-risk behaviors, lower education level, and being uninsured or covered by public insurance, as well as higher HIV incidence rates. Baseline knowledge of vaccine trial concepts was low among all of the populations studied.
One population for which a vaccine could be extremely efficacious is high-risk adolescents-- who face a lifetime of dealing with a chronic illness if infected with HIV. Adolescents at risk for HIV and therefore eligible and in need of a vaccine are likely to be low-income, poorly educated, and a disenfranchised population. Moreover, they are likely to have below-average reading and verbal comprehension skills, and difficulty with medical terminology. Issues of literacy and comprehension of informed consent become even more critical when dealing with populations with special vulnerabilities. To achieve truly informed consent for vaccine trials, Hodel (1994) has insisted that further research is crucial in determining what information is meaningful to potential participants in order for them to decide whether to participate. Potential HIV vaccine participants must fully understand complex concepts (e.g., that a person will test positive for HIV, even though they do not have the virus--they are "vaccine positive").
Children and adolescents have developmental limitations on their abilities to comprehend information. With some exceptions, the majority of IRBs require parental consent for research involving minors. Typically, parent or guardian permission for research on minors may not be solicited for research with substantially greater than minimal risk unless there is direct benefit to the minor with a risk-benefit ratio at least as good as available alternatives. There are also special considerations for involvement of adolescents in research where needs of parents and of the adolescents may conflict in terms of concerns about privacy.
Studies have suggested that simplifying the language and using short sentences have enhanced understanding. Other studies support the use of visual aids to enhance adolescent understanding and to enable adolescents to give truly informed consent.
The aims of the project are to randomize adolescents at risk for HIV to either a simplified adolescent-friendly prototype condition, or to the standard condition in order to determine:
- if adolescents assigned to the simplified, adolescent-tailored prototype condition have significantly better comprehension scores than those assigned to the standard condition;
- if adolescents assigned to the simplified, adolescent-tailored prototype condition have significantly better recall scores than those assigned to the standard condition;
- if willingness to participate in a vaccine trial is significantly different among adolescents assigned to the simplified condition compared to the standard condition.

Illustration Style Preference Group
Ten participants at each site will be invited to attend a focus group to determine their comfort with and preference for one of four styles of illustration. The same two concepts will be presented in each of the four styles and ratings will be obtained from all participants. Detailed information on why participants rated each of the styles the way they did will also be obtained by reviewing comments on the rating sheets and audiotapes of the groups. Groups will be run by the study coordinator at the Florida and New York sites, and by Dannie Hoffman, protocol coordinator, in Los Angeles, using a focus group script developed by Dr. Murphy.
Review of Draft Focus Group
Lori Perez will travel to each site from Westat and conduct Review of Draft Focus Groups with adolescents and young adults (n per site = approximately 10 - 15) to collect final feedback on the adolescent friendly version (present key pieces of the adolescent friendly version and obtain feedback on the wording and the illustrations). Based on the focus group feedback, the research team will finalize the adolescent friendly materials.
Comprehension/Recall Assessment
The assessment will be read to the participants to preclude reading problems. Responses will be recorded by the interviewer on the assessment instrument.

Malaysiakini NEWS
Information Communication and Culture Minister Rais Yatim today confirmed media reports that the government was considering imposing an Internet filter to block "undesirable" websites.
Unrestrained power in your hands
For almost 20 years, Malaysiakini has stayed true to the cause of providing the Malaysian public with the truth. We believe that with unadulterated information, the people will obtain power to make informed decisions.
Decisions which lead to a healthy, robust nation - ours!
Keep the truth alive. Support your robust, independent media. You have the unrestrained power to do so.
In news we trust
A media which is sustained by the backing and support of its people is ensured its independence. The prolonged fight for justice with the support of the public has made it possible for Malaysiakini to continue its operations for over 20 years.
Who says it's not our fault?
We aren't trained to take responsibility.
Everytime we observe an injustice - and choose to keep mum - the prevalence of injustice becomes our fault.
Astute journalism paves the way for the public to be continuously furnished with the fastidious truth. You are continuously empowered to act and to uphold the integrity of the nation.
Your say is the most crucial say!
THE MOST COURAGEOUS ACT STILL IS TO THINK FOR YOURSELF. Aloud.
The Rakyat owns Malaysiakini
We choose to take a risk on independent media because we believe that only through independent reporting can one be NOT beholden to the interest of businesses or organisations. This allows us to really pursue the truth - aggressively.
Independent for 20 years.
You know when it gets real
Listen to your gut.
You know when it gets real.
Truth really matters.
Going beyond expectations.
The victorious people
In the light of holding the truth to power, Malaysiakini will continue to uphold its mission of providing credible news to its discerning public. Your support for Malaysiakini is always treasured as a testament of innate nationalism. Your victory is our history.
Quietly. Effectively. Says it all. Malaysiakini.
Speaking truth to power
When we embarked on this journey 20 years ago, we knew we would face intimidation, harassment, raids, arrests and perhaps even jail terms. We got into this venture with our eyes wide open.
The main reason we have survived this long - when many others have folded - is partly because we are prudent in our finances. But while we may be tightfisted in our budgeting, we do not hold back when it comes to speaking truth to power and holding power to account. And certainly, this new administration will not stop us from continuing to do so.
Serving humanity
As servants of this nation, we at Malaysiakini applaud the continuous engagement of the public in affairs of the state.
You make Malaysiakini what it is.
You make Malaysia what it is.
The future is moving in
Stay curious. Stay with Malaysiakini. Our energy is to meet your demands. As the future moves in, let us help you be in time for it.

NASHVILLE, TENN. – The Lipscomb University Bisons used exceptional ball movement in a 90-78 victory over the Kennesaw State Owls Monday evening in Allen Arena.
Lipscomb dished out 27 assists on 30 field goals. Michael Lusk had a career high eight assists.
"That is unbelievable to have 30 baskets on 27 assists," said Lipscomb head coach Scott Sanderson. "I thought we moved the basket really well."
Five Bisons scored in double figures led by Adnan Hodzic with 20 points. Josh Slater had 16 points while Michael Teller, Brandon Brown, and Lusk had 12 points each.
Lipscomb had struggled with turning the ball over in January averaging 19.9 turnovers per game. But the Bisons committed only ten turnovers against Kennesaw State.
"We've shot the ball better, we've rebounded the ball better, we've been better defensively," said Sanderson. "Our biggest Achilles' heel has been turning the ball over and we did a better job with that tonight."
Lipscomb took an early 17-6 lead at the 13:36 mark in the first half. The Bisons expanded their lead to 14 (30-16) on a layup by Brian Wright with 7:55 left in the first. Lipscomb held a 45-33 lead at the half.
The Bisons used an 8-0 run to go up 66-45 with 12:15 left in the game. The 21 point advantage was the largest of the game for the Bisons.
Kennesaw State used a 13-2 run over 2:04 to bring the game back to nine points (79-70) with 4:27 left.
"I don't like them going on this run, but I thought we were pretty solid across the game," Sanderson said.
Lipscomb went on an 11-5 run off of 3-pointers by Lusk and Teller along with five free throws to regain a 15 point lead (90-75) with 1:30 remaining.
Lipscomb shot 30-of-51 (58.8 percent) on the afternoon. Kennesaw State was 29-of-60 (48.3 percent) from the field.
The Bisons scored 40 points in the paint.
Lipscomb was 10-of-18 (55.6 percent) from the 3-point line. Kennesaw State was 10-of-19 (52.6 percent). Lipscomb's ten 3-pointers were the most since the Bisons hit 11 in their season-opener against Oakland City.
The Bisons shot 20-of-31 (64.5 percent) from the free throw line. Kennesaw State was 10-of-10 (100 percent).
Lipscomb outrebounded Kennesaw State 31-23. Teller, Brown, Hodzic, and Thomas Pfaff had five each to lead the Bisons.
Lipscomb improves to 8-11, 4-6 in the A-Sun. Kennesaw State is 6-12, 2-7 in the A-Sun.

Raburn homers twice as Tribe pushes streak to eight

CLEVELAND -- The party that has become Progressive Field kept on raging Thursday afternoon against the White Sox.
With All-Star right-hander Justin Masterson keeping the visitors from enjoying themselves, Ryan Raburn and the Tribe offense supplied all the additional favors necessary for a good time, as the Indians finished off a four-game sweep of Chicago with a 6-1 victory to extend their longest winning streak of the season to eight games.View Full Game Coverage
Cleveland (60-48) is 12 games above .500 for the first time since June 2, 2011. The club picked up a half-game on Detroit in the American League Central. The Tigers, who were off Thursday, have a two-game lead in the division on the Indians, who hold the second AL Wild Card spot.
"I like where this team is at," said Masterson, who held Chicago to just one run over 6 2/3 solid innings.
"Really, the story is about Ryan Raburn doing his thing today," the pitcher said. "That was pretty cool to see."
Raburn hit a two-run homer to right during the third inning and a solo shot to left in the seventh for the seventh multi-homer game of his career and his third this season. While his first blast was really more of a fly ball that got caught in a stiff wind, Raburn's second home run was hit well enough to beat those same elements.
In the hours before Thursday's game, Raburn expressed his excitement about being penciled into the No. 3 hole against White Sox ace lefty Chris Sale. With a 3-for-4 effort at the plate that netted four RBIs, Raburn made Tribe manager Terry Francona look pretty smart.
"We're fortunate, because he's a good player," Francona said of Raburn, a bench player who led Cleveland to a walk-off victory with a three-run homer last Friday. "On days like today, he's a good guy to have in there, because they have to respect his bat, and he's a threat, and he keeps the line moving."
Sale's presence on the mound led to Francona's decision to limit his batting order to one left-handed hitter, Michael Brantley. It didn't matter that stars such as Jason Kipnis or Michael Bourn were absent. Led by Raburn, the Tribe pounced on Sale -- who entered Thursday carrying an impressive 2.69 ERA -- for five runs in five innings.
The outing was Sale's shortest since June 19. He hadn't given up as many runs since April 13, when the Indians plated eight at Progressive Field.
"I'm not going to sit here and make excuses," Sale said. "I got my [rear end] kicked. I wouldn't say that was my best stuff I featured, but you've still got to go out there and find a way and unfortunately I couldn't."
In three outings against the Indians this season, Sale has given up 16 runs -- all earned -- over 17 1/3 innings, for a whopping 8.31 ERA.
"When you look at most lineups when he pitches, they try to get their lefties out of there," Francona said. "We match up pretty well because we can send up pretty good right-handed hitters, because he's so tough on lefties."
Masterson (13-7, 3.33 ERA) had more runs than he needed, something Sale (6-11, 2.92 ERA) isn't accustomed to. The Tribe's sinkerballer got the better of Chicago's southpaw, as Masterson conceded just five hits and the one run, a solo shot by Alejandro De Aza in the sixth.
Before bowing out with the bases loaded and two outs in the seventh, Masterson racked up seven strikeouts against three walks. Left-hander Rich Hill retired De Aza to wipe out Chicago's threat after Masterson's exit.
"Real good sink," Francona said of Masterson, who induced eight ground balls and four flyouts. "And on a day when the ball was really flying to right, that's a good day to have sink. You saw on Raburn's ball, that ball got up in the jet stream. It could be a dangerous area. But he had real good movement on that, and it kind of set everything else up."
With two on and two out in the second inning, Mark Reynolds sent a fastball from Sale for a single, driving in the game's first run and giving himself his first RBI since July 2.
The Tribe scored a pair of runs in the fifth inning, which began with singles by Drew Stubbs and Nick Swisher. Raburn brought Stubbs home with a single to left, and Asdrubal Cabrera hit a deep sacrifice fly to center to plate Swisher.
Hill had two strikeouts across 1 1/3 innings and Joe Smith pitched a scoreless final frame, locking down a win that sealed Cleveland's second four-game sweep of the White Sox (40-66) this season. Before this season, the Tribe hadn't swept a pair of four-game sets from one club in one season since 1960, when it did so against the Kansas City Athletics.
The Indians wrapped up their homestand with a 7-0 record and have won 11 straight at Progressive Field and 37 of their 56 home games this season, matching the win total from all of 2012.
"Every single starter's been going out there since the All-Star break and doing a tremendous job," said Masterson, who has won three straight starts. "The bullpen's been coming in and doing great. ... The guys are out there scoring runs, putting up what we need and playing defense. Not just myself, but everyone seems to be in a real good spot right now."

I cannot get enough of the game. So far on career mode, I'm 13-5. Loss to Forrest Griffin and Tito Ortiz twice each, and Shogun once. But I was able to avenge my fight against Ortiz. And I'm about to go up against Shogun. Notable wins were TKO's twice against Liddell and Wanderlei Silva, as well as a TKO win over Rampage.
But online is tough, from what I've heard. I haven't gotten around to play it, yet, but from what I've heard, people use their created characters and they're extremely tough to beat, even if you use a UFC fighter. Their stats are usually all the way up in takedowns and submissions, so they'd take you down, and you're as good as done unless you're really good at getting out.
Oh, and my friend told me the classic matches are tough as hell. The TKO ones are easy, but the submissions are tough since you have to get them to tap in a certain round, at a certain time.
I'm telling you right now, Fight Night Round 4's demo play is SICK and SO REALISTIC just like UFC's. So while I expect FN to sell well, UFC is going to compete neck and neck with them on the market.
Great game, 9.2/10.
that's it xbay, i gotta fight you online sometime. Hopefully I'll have my actual xbox soon. Borrowed my brothers but i'm gonna give it back soon. The game is really addicting. Have only played a couple matches against a friend of mine so far. I've played a bunch of my career though, that guy will be a nasty striker when i'm done with him.

This exclusive range of furniture is handcrafted from the solid Mangowood which is Native to Eastern India. The mango tree bears fruit for the first 25 years and then becomes unproductive. We have taken advantage of these plantation trees which are cut down when they stop producing fruits and use them to manufacture this beautiful range of furniture which has got the delicious grains of mango wood.
GREEN: We pride ourselves in using timber which is being Recycled and Renewable.
UNIQUENESS: Each & Every piece of this furniture will be different and bears some unique character of its own; it does's resemble any other piece due to the unique grain structure.
COLOR VARIATION: There is absolutely no color variation of unacceptable nature. However, there will be some variation on account of nature of wood which is the unique property of wooden furniture.
FINISH PROCESS: Raw Assembled Furniture is sanded with 120 grit Belt sanders to bring the nice smooth finish. It is then stained manually with the Stain Finish Required; third step is spraying 2x coat of sealer to close the pores of wood. The last step is to spray a coat of Lacquer which prevents the furniture from the scratches and marks. It also brings smooth finish & character to the surface.
Mango Wood grains, by nature, will vary. They accept Finishes differently. Some characteristics, such as "cherry pits" and knots, give your furniture natural beauty and authenticity. Some of our Mango wood furniture had been "distressed" which adds a charming, aged look and hides future small imperfections that may occur during normal use.
- Maintain atleast two feet between your wood furniture and home heating sources.
- Prolonged exposure to heat sources will cause the wood to dry out. All finishes will fade over time. You can slow the fading process by placing your wood furniture out of direct sunlight.
- Avoid extreme temperature or humidity conditions.
- Use coasters under all beverages.
- Use felt bumpers under lamps, statues, and vases to protect against scratches.
- Avoid over spray when watering the plants or cleaning glass.
- Do not allow liquids to stand on wood surfaces.
- Dust regularly with the soft cloth. Do not over wax. It is recommended to wax only twice a year to avoid was build-up. Use a good quality wax, applied with a clean, white cloth and wipe in the direction of the grain.

Alfred Dunhill Links Championship, 2nd Round October 05 2012
Branden Grace/getty images Branden Grace cemented his place at the top of the leaderboard in the Alfred Dunhill Links Championship in Scotland on Friday with a 2nd round score of -5 under par 67, on the St Andrews Old Course. Branden now has a total tournament score of -17 under par, 5 shots clear of the two players tied in second place on -12 under par. Branden suffered his first bogey, on the fourth hole at the home of Golf, but then bounced back with six birdies on the day; " As soon as I made the birdie at the fifth I settled down and got things going and the form of yesterday kicked in. The putts kept going in and I made three 25 footers which was nice.I think the way I'm playing and hitting the ball I'm looking forward to playing Carnoustie. The putter is going and I'm looking forward to it." The two players who are five shots back are Denmark's Thorbjorn Olesen and Sweden's wonderfully dressed Joel Sjoholm, his plus fours outfit is totally in keeping with Scotland and Links courses. Joel Sjoholm/getty images Joel played himself into contention on day two of the Alfred Dunhill Links Championship with a second round -5 under par 67 on the Old Course at St Andrews. Joel said he loved the course at St Andrews; "It was a pleasure, this was the first time I have played 18 holes at St Andrews, so it's been an absolutely fantastic adventure for me. It has been a really good day. Now I honestly understand why everybody's talking so much about it, and I don't know the history, so you cannot quiz me on that, but I guess that on a course like this a lot of things can happen. I can see myself that today I've been a little bit lucky, I'm hitting drives, they might be in the bunker or all these bushes everywhere and we find them and some guys might just stripe it in the fairway. This course is absolutely amazing." Thorbjorn, an equally strikingly dressed golfer, usually in very bright dazzling colors, remained near the top of the leaderboard for second day with his round of -3 under par 69 on the challenging Carnoustie Championship Course. Thorbjorn was happy with his good play over the two days. He spoke about the good friendship his has with Joel and how that rivalry inspired him on his last hole of the day, to go for a birdie and tie Joel for second spot; "It's been good the last two days, definitely, I hit a lot of solid drives and good irons too. I actually thought I left a few out there today, it could have been a few more but three under is still a good score at Carnoustie. I was standing on the last three holes and I thought, 'I need to make a birdie just to tie him, It was quite funny. We have a really good friendship and I think that's good for our games also." Paul Casey had some fun with a stray dog on the course at Kingsbarns; Paul Casey/getty images Paul said of his encounter with the dog; " The wee dog was roaming around this morning on the first tee when we teed off 10, so we got to the 12th fairway, the dog is running around, and to be honest it just looked like it was a little bit lost. So I went over and made friends with it on the back of the 12th green and next thing I know, the thing runs over and picks up my ball. I had about 30 feet for eagle. I was trying to get him to put it in the hole, but then he ran off with it up the hill toward the 13th tee. There was a moment when panic set in when I was wondering if I would have to play it where I found it!" Another aside to a splendid day was from American Michael Phelps, the most decorated Olympian of all time, with 22 medals. Michael can add to his tally of records with his first record of his new career sport of golf. He has entered the record books for making the longest putt ever televised, with a 159 foot putt at the 6th hole on the Kingsbarns course in this tournament.

Links, 8.8.11Posted: August 8, 2011 Filed under: Genealogy 3 Comments
The links and I went on vacation last week. But vacations end and overflowing mailboxes remain.
Just a quick glance showed me that while I was gone, JK Rowling got the Who Do You Think You Are? treatment (British edition), a preponderance of Australian Gen-Ys said they would prefer that their census forms were destroyed, and apparently much of Western Europe turned out to be related to King Tut.
You just can't turn your back on the Internet for a second, people. Anyway:
Feasting: Delicious entries at the Carnival of Genealogy, 108th Edition: Food. I threw some cake into the mix on this one and had a complete blast reading a great collection of musings on food, family and the occasional bout of indigestion. A few examples:
• Great pictures (and some delightfully dogmatic pronouncements) from Judy Cole at It Must Have Been Something I Ate.
• Bill West explains the ins and outs of Blue Collar Cuisine (and condolences that Bill, too, experienced liver and onions in his formative years).
• Carnival host Jasia has a tell-all about the tasty (no, really!) Duck Blood Soup, which she bravely resists calling by its less-scary alternate name, Czarnina.
• Debbie at Mascot Manor asks Who Are These People?, reminding us that the stories behind the recipes need to be recorded, too.
• Also, NoliChucky Roots reminds us that some food fashions die deserving deaths in Salad Oughtn't Wiggle.
Read them all but make sure you've had a meal first or else you'll be raiding the refrigerator.

Thanks for mentioning the Jello nightmare. I am afraid though it hasn't completely died. My (legally adult) children seem to have reincarnated it with increasingly bizarre Jello shots….
Thanks for the mention Am I dogamtic? Maybe. Certainly when it comes to bagels, but that's OK because I'm right.

The charming cover of Merry Crassmas
Click play to hear all of Merry Crassmas!
The end of 1981 likely saw highly influential British anarcho-punk band Crass both energized and exhausted after dropping their third album, the remarkably complex feminist manifesto Penis Envy.
One speculates that the idea for their final release of the year came to the band as a "eureka!" moment. Why not release a 7" novelty record made up of a department-store-style, organ-and-drum-machine medley of their anthemic and obnoxious tunes, including "Big A Little A," "Punk is Dead," "Big Hands," "Contaminational Power" and others? Slap on an innocuous Santa Claus intro and obnoxious outro at the end, pop it into a sleeve with a strange and horrific collage of an Xmas-day family holiday scene by Gee Vaucher, and you've got an instant inside-joke punk classic on your hands.
As a horror-day bonus for you Crass-heads, here's a wide-ranging, as-yet-spotlighted 2007 interview from pancrack.tv with your man, drummer Penny Rimbaud…

Johan Santana needs to earn his money tonight. The Mets have dropped two straight to the Phillies, and if they lose tonight they are tied for first and don't think for a moment thoughts of the collapse won't resurface, if they haven't already.
"That's why you have a Johan,'' manager Jerry Manuel said. "We're not quite clicking like we were. It's unfortunate come home after a good road trip and not be clicking.
"Hopefully, Johan can keep us in the game."
I would hope the expectations are higher than that.

Yum! This is my new favorite summer dish. Super easy, and a great way to introduce yourself to Fish Sauce, which I had been afraid to try up til now. I didn't have any chili peppers or lemongrass, and forgot the honey, but still tasted AWESOME. Added a few dollops of Chili Garlic sauce (rooster brand) as an accent.

Despite the Jets controlling possession of the puck for the
majority of the game, the scoring chance count didn't exactly play out as you
would have expected it to.
Scoring Chances
Despite hold a pretty substantial lead for most of the game
in regards to possession, the Jets still finished tied with the Stars in
scoring chances at even strength. It's
hard not to see this as a result of the lineup the Jets sent out for this game,
which was pretty obviously lacking in skill.
One line that I thought struggled a fair amount throughout
the night was Byfuglien – Jokinen – Wheeler.
They were too often caught in their own end, they had a lot of trouble
moving the puck up the ice, and I think Jokinen's chance numbers really reflect
that. When Maurice moved his lines
around a bit it allowed Buff and Wheeler to improve their numbers a bit, but
overall it wasn't a very pretty game for the trio.
By the way, I'm still amazed at the fact that Blake Wheeler
came back following his collision at the Stars bench. I don't think it was dirty or deliberate by
any means, but when I saw it I thought he was done for the year. Heck, I was certain we were going to see
Klingberg in the Jets lineup against the Sharks. Yet he managed to come back and is apparently
okay, so it'll be interesting to watch for any lingering effects going forward.
The Jets power play was a mere +1 on three opportunities
against the Stars. Really nothing new
here, it's just a constant disappointment that seriously needs to be addresses
in the offseason. In the meantime I hope
to see Eric O'Dell get a shot on the unit, and some experimentation to see who
may have some chemistry with whom (cough cough Wheeler and Kane).
Tangradi, Cormier and Peluso may not have put up any big
numbers, but the fact that weren't on the ice for any chances against is an
improvement over fourth lines of the past.
I thought Kane looked solid with Little and Frolik. Heck, I've thought Kane has looked pretty
darn good in most games he's played away from Olli Jokinen. Evander is going to take a lot of heat this
offseason for the drop off in his production, but I have a feeling he is going
to have a heck of a bounce back year next season.
Final Thought
You know what's fun to recall? The fact that Kari Lehtonen
used to be an Atlanta Thrasher. I tossed
that little tidbit out on twitter during the game, and was reminded of the
horrible circumstances that led to him being traded. It's fun to think about what things would be
like if he could have made it work and become a Winnipeg Jet though.

Yeah right. It gives Avery too much attention. just like the damn articles and the media buzz. Screw Avery, I wouldnt rather niot even acknowledge him.
Especially some hott brod holding a sign with his name on it?
If a bomb shell I hit up came around holding a "Rich P sucks" sign i would be like. hell yeah i did. all over the place
I see what you're saying, but it's not the actual "broad" showing up. It's a rival team's fan capitalizing on his failed relationship with this "hot broad". IMO it's an embarassment to Avery. Kinda like the comments Avery was making to Brodeur about his divorce, two can play that game.
The attention on Avery is not going to stop, I happen to like what the guy who made the poster is going to do.

What's pig, but a foodie-blog emotion?
I know, this ain't a cooking blog, but one thing I do want to discuss here is using spirits in cooking. I'm just a novice here, but it should be fun to discuss what works well for us and what fails miserably.
One night last week, my lovely wife brought home a couple of nice pork chops from the Greenmarket. We had planned on grilling them over hard-wood charcoal, but the rains had other plans, so I started prepping them for the iron skillet. Jen recommended a bourbon reduction to glaze the chops, but as I seared the chops, I had another idea: pork chops and applesauce.
Now, it happens that we had no applesauce, but we do have Laird's Applejack. What's more, we had a small Mason jar in the fridge with fresh cherries steeping in Applejack. I meant them for cocktails, but Jen had also brought home more fresh cherries that night, so what the hell.
Here's what I did:
- I seared the chops on both sides in olive oil, salt, and pepper.
- As the chops cooked, I pulled the jar of applejack-soaked cherries from the fridge. I removed six cherries and muddled them up with some of the applejack from the jar. I also added a splash of Angostura and a splash of rye.
- I removed the chops to a platter and tented them with foil.
- Then, I deglazed the skillet with the applejack-rye-cherry mixture. I stirred up all the crispy bits from the pan and let the alcohol reduce a bit.
- With the alcohol reduced by about half, I added two teaspoons of butter and cooked until the pan sauce thickened. We served that over the chops.
Yum! The pan sauce captured all the flavors of the applejack, cherries, bitters, and rye, without any flavor overpowering the others. What made this work was that, in mixing drinks, I had already started thinking about blending applejack, cherries, and whiskey. The only question was, how would it play with pork? I think it worked out very well.
