Weekly home rail, with tips on how to go green, home Q&A and more. This week we begin a new standing item on pets called Creature Comfort.
Go Green Want to go green at home this holiday season? Here's a tip from Doityourself.com: Recycle wrapping paper: If every American family wrapped three holiday gifts in reused wrapping paper, the amount of paper saved would cover 45,000 football fields. If the environment is one of your concerns, you can do your part in helping it by purchasing recycled wrapping paper (many companies now make it). Newspaper is another good choice for wrapping gifts. Creature Comfort Most children would be delighted to find a cute puppy or bunny rabbit under the tree on Christmas morning, but before you go making any emotional purchases, make sure you've taken everything into consideration. Here are some tips from www.thefunplace.com: Money: Because the actual purchase of the pet and necessary supplies can run into quite a bit of money, you must decide if you're ready financially to support a pet, making sure to take into consideration vet bills, housing, nutritional needs, grooming needs, toys. With some animals, you'll want to figure in the price of neutering or spaying. Time: Do you have time for a pet? This means not only do the children have time, but also do YOU have time. Once the newness of this type of gift wears off, someone is still going to have a time commitment toward it. Space: Is there room in your household for this pet? Some animals require minimal space, while others require lots of space. In addition to housing, large animals will need a large area to run. Legalality: If you are renting, does your landlord permit animals, and will he require an extra deposit to cover the pet? Please check this out ahead of time - sneaking the pet in is not fair to anyone and will only cause heartache in the end. Allergies: Will this pet cause allergy reactions to anyone in the family? You can test this by visiting people with the same type of pet you are considering. Coming Soon to Your Home? What's the gift that keeps on giving going to be this Christmas? How about a cordless rechargeable massage seat -- a gift that turns any chair into a massage chair. This can be a nice alternative to a full-fledged massage chair or recliner, pieces of furniture that--while comfortable--don't always blend in nicely with your decor. The "Only Cordless Rechargeable Massage Seat" from Hammacher Schlemmer transforms "any chair into a gentle vibrating massage platform for your back and hamstrings." The massaging seat only weighs 3 pounds, it folds in half, and it has an integrated shoulder strap to make transport easy. The price? About $250. -- luxuryhousingtrends.com How To: Get Your Dishes to Sparkle For more effective dishwashing, add a few tablespoons of vinegar along with the dishwashing detergent when washing dishes. The vinegar cuts the grease and leaves dishes sparkling. -- www.thefunplace.com Home Q&A Q. A neighbor gave me a microwave and the bracket for installation in a rental unit I have. I see the bracket and oven, but I am not sure how it attaches. I have the cabinet hung where the microwave will go, so I am ready, but was wondering if anyone had info on how to proceed with no directions. Does anyone know of a site or an address to get the directions for installation? A. Check the manufacturer for the model. However, if this is a ventless, the bracket attaches to the wall and the unit sets into the bracket at the bottom and folds up to its final resting place. There are two basic methods that these appliances are attached. The most common is through holes drilled in the cabinet shelf, followed by machine bolts and washers (provided) down into the appliance. The other is a two-threaded rod accessed from behind the top vent panel, which attaches to the wall bracket. -- Doityourself.com Number to Know: 10 Number of years a German landlord illegally videotaped his tenants. The 60-year-old allegedly installed cameras and microphones in the bedrooms, bathrooms and other areas of two flats. He was arrested and charged with invasion of privacy after a tenant found a camera while cleaning. -- Source: Reuters GateHouse News Service

Mountain Dew 'Dark Knight' Releases: 'Dark Berry' and Cold-Activated Cans
Two things I've never understood: "cold-activated" cans and product releases pegged to movies. It seems to me that God granted us a pretty sensitive instrument to determine whether a Coors Light is down to temperature—you know, your hand—and if you're too far gone to tell when a beer's cold by touch, then a) you probably can't see the blue mountains, either b) you probably don't need another beer c) all of the above.
And has the premiere of a new action movie ever made you think "Wow, I really wish there were a new flavor of Mountain Dew to go along with this? Gosh, the usual neon lemon-lime doesn't cut it anymore." Raise your hands... anyone? Exactly.
That said, I'm pretty okay with the Dew's new products pegged to "The Dark Knight Rises." Here's why.
The 'Dark Berry' looks like a creepy teeth-staining dark purple, but it pours an appropriate-to-Dew not-found-in-nature royal blue. Like so many sodas, the flavor is one you associate with a color rather than a fruit; this could be any combination of raspberry or blueberry or strawberry, tasting like none of those in particular, and more like blue Airheads or Blue Raspberry Slush Puppies than any of the above. That is to say, it just tastes blue. (Of course, if you dyed it red and called it Dark Cherry, I'd probably say it tasted like red. But that's a greater degree of experimentation than we're tackling today.)
And blue works well with Mountain Dew. The standard soda has that super-aggressive, kinda tastes like citrus floor cleaner, love-it-or-hate-it "lemon-lime" thing going on (I went through a serious Diet Mountain Dew phase back in the day, so honestly, I kinda love it). But that means there's a lot of room to play with sweeter, fruitier flavors around the edges, making the soda seem a little more balanced. This is a Mountain Dew that Dew skeptics could drink; and really, there aren't that many blue-flavored sodas out there, are there?
The "Dew Thermo Can" holds standard Dew inside, but that metallic bat-shape on the front? It turns green when the can is chilled enough. Cute? Sure. Gimmick? Clearly. But I have to admit that I like the hefty can as a vehicle for soda-drinking. I'm at a point (like any good American) where I find 12-ounce cans disappear too quickly, but drinking out of a can just feels better than the bottle: the chill against your hand, perhaps; the way whatever you're drinking (and whatever its strange color) is obscured. And it ends up feeling like a beer can, which with the cold-activated
mountains bat and all, is presumably what they're going for.
Would I go out of my way for either? Nope, but a Blue Dew is a pretty okay thing. And if a can to cover up that crazy Mountain Dew green is an okay thing, too.

Strengthening Connection Between Diaspora Jewry and Israel Remains Key
The seventh annual B'nai B'rith World Center Survey on Contemporary Israeli Attitudes Toward Diaspora Jewry found that the Israeli public is equally divided on the effect of United States involvement in the Mideast peace process over the last few years.
One-third answered that the United States has impeded progress, and one-third said the United States has promoted progress in the peace process over the last few years, with the final third saying they did not know.
Most of the survey focused on attitudes regarding relations between Israel and the Diaspora. An overwhelming 80 percent of Israelis strongly favored the use of their tax money to promote programs like Birthright or Masa that build support for Israel in the Diaspora by bringing Jewish youth and young adults to Israel. When asked the best way for the State of Israel to deal with violence against Jews in Europe, a majority felt it would be more effective to encourage aliyah (51 percent) than to work with local governments (38 percent) or to train the Jewish community in self-defense tactics (7 percent).
"This survey has shown the significant connection between the two communities and the extent to which they are willing to help each other," said B'nai B'rith International Executive Vice President Daniel S. Mariaschin. "There clearly is a strong interest in further building the relationship between Israel and the Diaspora."
Israelis were almost equally split on whether Israeli tax money should be used to help members of Diaspora Jewry during times of economic crisis in the Diaspora, with 46 percent supporting and 43 percent opposing. When asked the same question in 2009, nearly 60 percent supported the measure.
Israelis seem to strongly favor finding an instrument by which to better represent Diaspora issues in Israel, with 56 percent in support of creating a "Jewish Parliament" that would represent Diaspora Jews (23 percent oppose). Eighteen percent would give the body the right to propose legislation to the Knesset and 25 percent would give it mandatory consultative status, while 40 percent favor the body having only voluntary consultative status. However, more oppose formal representation in the Knesset, with 63 percent opposing allowing Diaspora Jews to elect "a few" Knesset members to represent their interests (with 21 percent supporting) and 49 percent opposed to establishing a mechanism requiring the Knesset to hold debate on issues relevant to Diaspora Jews.
Israelis also strongly oppose allowing its citizens living outside of Israel to elect Knesset members (51 percent oppose, 29 percent support and 20 percent don't know).
"This survey has demonstrated the enduring connection between Israelis and Diaspora Jews. Clearly, Israelis are committed to finding a vehicle for including and expanding the opinions and participation of Diaspora Jews in Israel," said B'nai B'rith World Center Director Alan Schneider.
In his book, "Crisis of Zionism," Peter Beinart advocates the implementation of what he terms a "Zionist boycott" against the settlements by American Jews. When asked whether American Jews should boycott Israeli settlements, 76 percent of Israelis disagreed and only 13 percent were in agreement.
The Internet survey was conducted June 20 with 507 Israeli Jews age 18 or older, and there is a margin of error of +/- 4.5 percent. The survey was conducted by KEEVOON Research.
The B'nai B'rith World Center, established in 1980, is the permanent and official presence of B'nai B'rith International in Jerusalem and serves as its public affairs arm in Israel.

In the News: Boe Forum speaker sees 'good, ill in digital frontier'
More than 2,000 people filled the Elmen Center last night to hear Jared Cohen, former advisor to Secretaries of State Condoleezza Rice and Hillary Clinton, author, a member of the Council on Foreign Relations and director of Google Ideas, speak at the 2012 Boe Forum on Public Affairs, presented by the Center for Western Studies.
Read and watch reaction to his address from the Argus Leader and KELO-TV:
Boe Forum: Seeing Good, Ill in Digital Frontier
Google Guru Says Nations Must Ready for Change
By Cody Winchester, Argus Leader
Institutions need to prepare for the promise and peril of the digital age, a public policy expert said Thursday night at Augustana College.
"Technology empowers people both for good and for ill," said Jared Cohen, a former U.S. State Department adviser and director of Google Ideas (a "think/do" tank), speaking at the annual Boe Forum.
Cohen said the spread of disruptive technologies, particularly in the developing world, will be a net benefit for society if governments, businesses and citizens leverage them for good.
In a world where 4.2 billion people own a toothbrush but 5.2 billion own a mobile phone, the virtual world now dominates foreign policy, whether the issue is revolutions or terrorism or traditional statecraft, Cohen said.
Jared Cohen talked with journalism students from Augustana and area high schools yesterday afternoon.
"It's the very first technology in the world's history that allows you to develop, own and disseminate content without an intermediary," he said. The power of this technology was illustrated perfectly in the Arab Spring uprising, he said.
One thing he learned while traveling in Iran: Activists are adaptive. As the protests intensified and the government shut down Internet and cellular service, young activists employed the same peer-to-peer networks once used for planning parties and landing dates to organize protests and circumvent police surveillance, he said.
One takeaway from this, he said, is that technology companies need to recognize their responsibility to the next 5 billion customers in the developing world anticipated to come online in the next decade. Companies need to understand their challenges and innovate accordingly.
A great example of how digital technology affects foreign policy is the video Neda, a young Iranian protestor whose shooting death was captured on cellphone video, smuggled out of the country and then uploaded to YouTube.
Within two hours, Cohen said, presidents and prime ministers across the world were being briefed on the contents of the video, and ultimately it was a turning point in the West's stance toward Iran.
Augustana senior Alan Thompson interviews Jared Cohen yesterday afternoon.
"Remove mobile phones from the equation ... and ask yourself the question of whether anyone in Iran would have been able to change the policy of the United States government," he said.
Tony Haga, chairman of the Center for Western Studies, introduced Cohen with the now-famous anecdote of how Cohen persuaded his friend Jack Dorsey, the co-founder of Twitter, to delay maintenance that would have shut down access to the site in Iran just as the post-election protests in 2009 were beginning to bloom.
"I almost got fired for this," Cohen said.
The move infuriated some inside the Obama administration, given its official stance of noninterference, but Cohen said Secretary of State Hillary Clinton later praised the tactic as a good example of 21st-century statecraft.
From here out, he said, revolutions will accelerate much more quickly but will be harder to see through because there's not enough time for promising activists to develop leadership skills.
"Revolutions of the future will develop a lot of celebrities ... but at the end of the day, you need someone to sit down and write a constitution," he said. "These revolutions aren't producing new leaders."
Terrorists adapt
Terrorists also are finding ways to exploit new technologies to their benefit — they have to, if they want to stay relevant, Cohen said. He said the prospect of radical groups combining cyber attacks with physical terrorist strikes "is what keeps me up at night more than anything."
But he's optimistic that the same connectivity that allows terrorists to plan more sophisticated attacks also widens the room for error.
Cohen told the story of how a friend of his, a Navy SEAL working in Pakistan, was part of a team hunting a terrorist who had been very careful to cover his tracks in real life. But then he called a relative in Afghanistan to let him know he was coming to the wedding, and the military was able to trace the call from there.
"To put it in financial terms, I'm short on terrorists thriving in the new digital age, and I'm long on terrorists suffering," he said.
Cohen's research on radicalization has led him to interview terrorists from al-Qaida, the Taliban and other fundamentalist groups. He has written books on jihad and genocide and has a forthcoming volume about technology and foreign policy co-written with Google CEO Eric Schmidt.
Stranded in Egypt
This was Cohen's first trip to South Dakota, but he said he had one thing in common with the group of Augustana College students who were in Egypt last year when pro-democracy activists began the series of protests that resulted in the overthrow of Egyptian President Hosni Mubarak.
"We were both stranded in Egypt," he said, "and our parents were worried about us."
Senior Hannah Kuelbs, a senior communications and music major, was one of them.
"I saw what social media did for the Egyptians there," she said, adding that Cohen's message underscored the importance of emerging technologies to developing nations.
The hour-and-a-half-long speech was a good reminder of the accelerating pace of technological change, said senior Thad Titze, president of the Augustana Student Association.
"People my age, we know how to research online, we now how to use databases," said the 21-year-old Watertown native. "But with social media, we use it every day, we know how to put information in. My main question is, how do we make constructive use of those (technologies), not only in our little campus but in the wider world?"
Technology Highlights Augustana College Forum
By Kelly Bartnick
He's known as the young gun of foreign relations. Thursday night former advisor to the Secretary of State and a member of the Council of Foreign Relations, Jared Cohen, brought his message of technology and foreign policy to South Dakota.
Watch the Video from KELO-TV
"It couldn't happen at a better time," Jill Matson said as she waited to walk into Augustana College's Elmen Center to hear Cohen speak. "Two days after the election results are in," Matson said.
Cohen headlined Augustana College's Boe Forum on Public Affairs. The forum has hosted dignitaries from General Colin Powell and Desmond Tutu to Madeline Albright.
Cohen, 30, is the youngest presenter in the Forum's 17 year history.
"The past couple of years we've had some older ones and they said it was harder to communicate with them. But they really enjoyed the talk with him," Augustana College student Courtney Moore said.
"It's always fun to gather for a Boe Forum because we know we're going to learn something tonight," Augustana College President Rob Oliver told the crowd as he introduced Cohen.
When it comes to foreign policy and technology, Cohen's youth gives him credibility. And it's Cohen's experience as Advisor to the Secretary of State and Member of the Council on Foreign Relations that makes him an expert on technology as it relates to democracy and world peace.
"I've looked at it as a writer and a student. I've looked at it advising two Secretaries of State. And now I look at it from the world's largest search engine," Cohen said.
And his message here: if you think technology isn't changing things, you're wrong. The number of mobile devices is exploding globally. Cohen said the greatest increases are those countries facing great social and economic challenges.
"4.8 billion people in the world own a tooth brush. 5.2 billion people in the world own a cell phone," Cohen said.
Cohen served as the youngest person ever on the Secretary of State's Policy Planning Staff from 2006 to 2010. He now works for Google as the director of Google Ideas.

UConn's Stewart progressing nicely, with a few bumps in the road
Recommended Video:
STORRS -- Breanna Stewart does not need coach Geno Auriemma to put any pressure on her to live up to the hype that accompanied her to UConn. She expects herself to be great every time she steps on the floor.
Auriemma said Wednesday that no player on the team gets as frustrated as Stewart when they do not play well. She found herself questioning her performance following a 63-48 win over No. 9 Maryland Monday.
Stewart might have finished with 13 points and six rebounds in a season-high 31 minutes. But she also got pushed around, was 4-of-12 from the field, grabbed only one defensive rebound and committed a season-high five turnovers. And when the second-ranked Huskies watched the game on film, she discovered more mistakes.
"I think it was a learning experience because it was going to happen eventually," Stewart said. "I do put a lot of pressure on myself just because, obviously, you want to do everything right and strive for perfection. You're not going to be perfect. But if I could make every shot, I would make every shot, but I know that's not going to happen. But it's a mindset that I will (make happen)."
Auriemma has been working with Stewart, as well as the rest of the Huskies, to not beat herself up over a subpar performance. He is not concerned with early-season struggles. In fact, he welcomes them.
UConn sophomore Kaleena Mosqueda-Lewis, who is questionable for tonight's game against No. 10 Penn State at Gampel Pavilion (7, SNY) with a left quad contusion, scored at least 21 points in four of her first seven games last season. By late December, though, she was struggling to make a sizeable impact on the game.
"I kind of like that (Stewart) has started out slowly," Auriemma said. "She struggled in the Texas A&M game. She struggled in the Maryland game a little bit. And I think that's good because it doesn't give you this false sense of confidence. She now has to come to practice and fight through that. And little by little, she's going to do that."
Stewart returned to practice Tuesday ready to make improvements on her game. And she has had junior center Stefanie Dolson to help guide her in her transition from playing at the high school level.
"She's definitely kind of my protege," Dolson said. "I know there are certain things she's going through that I went through, and I know how to help her handle them. That's something I had to learn on my own because I didn't have somebody older than me and I was kind of thrown into it."
While there have been some growing pains for Stewart, her overall numbers have masked them. She leads the Huskies in scoring (16.3 ppg) and rebounding (6.4 pg) in 22.6 minutes. She is shooting 59.5 percent from the field (41.7 3-point range).
Her struggles have not diminished her self-confidence. They have only fueled her desire to work harder.
"I'm always looking to do better and there's always things that I think about after the game like, `Why didn't I do this?"' Stewart said. "(But) I'm still confident that I'm the player that I believe that I am. So even though there have been little setbacks of frustration, I think that I will still play the way I can play."

Last Update: October 12th, 2018
The record-sized Rolex Fastnet Race fleet set sail from Cowes in classic conditions – a beat westward up the Solent in a building west-southwesterly and sunshine, but with an ominous looking cloud line over the mainland.
In the end there were 314 starters, the largest fleet ever to start the Rolex Fastnet Race following the previous record of 303 in 1979.
The first start at 1100 BST saw the giant multihulls heading off. Fastest out of the blocks were Gitana 11 (FRA), the 23.5m trimaran skippered by Vendee Globe and Volvo Ocean Race skipper Sebastien Josse and Roland Jourdain's MOD70 Veolia Environnement (FRA). With round the world yachtswoman Dee Caffari manning her aft grinders, Veolia's sistership, Steve Ravussin's Race For Water (SUI), was over the line early and had to restart.
Visible from most parts of the Solent with her 40 meter long hulls and 47 meter tall mast, the world's fastest offshore boat, the Loick Peyron-skippered Maxi Banque Populaire (FRA) trimaran, thundered across the line and had reached the Needles within an hour, sailing upwind at more than 20 knots.
Five hours after starting, Banque Populaire was already approaching Start Point, close to 100 miles down the southwest coast from the start.
Next up were the IMOCA 60 monohulls, and by the Needles, Marc Guillemot — Yann Elies doublehander Safran (FRA), were leading the newer generation boats.
The ebb tide was beginning to kick in by the time the Class 40s started and most chose to hug the island shore in the most favourable current. By the time they reached the Needles, Tanguy de la Motte's 2009 Rolex Fastnet Race winner, Initiatives-Alex Olivier (FRA), was a nose ahead of the two Kiwi 40s, Roaring Forty 2 (BEL) and Peraspera (ITA). Shortly after passing through Hurst Narrows there was disaster for the Italian entry, Eutourist Serv-System, when she dismasted.
The wind against tide conditions, that were particularly severe at Hurst Narrows at the western entrance to the Solent, would subsequently take their toll on the 43-foot trimaran, Strontium Dog (GBR), that also suffered a dismasting.
The most impressive display were the smaller IRC boats, funnelling their way through Hurst Narrows, and slowly being overhauled by the larger boats that started after.
Doing well in IRC 1 was the Ker 46 Tonnerre de Breskens (NED), skippered by veteran sailor Piet Vroon, competing in his 23rd Rolex Fastnet Race.
Prior to leaving Cowes Yacht Haven this morning, Vroon wasn't keen to make many predictions about how this race would unfold. He offered,
"A big boat race? It could be an advantage for the bigger boats as they will make Portland and they could get to the Rock before the big wind comes.
"But I don't know. We are bigger than a lot of the small ones! If it is going to be in excess of 30 knots to windward, then it will be hard for the small boats."
VIDEO from the Start
(total 3:36min | Video streamed by clubracer, 14/08/2011)
Vroon, who won the Rolex Fastnet Race in 2001 said he was expecting to finish sometime on Wednesday morning.
"Once we took six days and once we took 68 hours, I believe. So anything in between is good!"
As expected in IRC Zero, the Jim Swartz/Karl Kwok co-skippered Farr 80 Beau Geste (HKG) appeared to be doing well, leading her class through Hurst Narrows ahead of the two silver streaks: Niklas Zennström's 72 foot Ràn (GBR) with Andres Soriano's 68-foot Alegre (GBR) hot on her heels.
Forging their way up the fleet was the intriguing match between the three Volvo Open 70s, due to set off on their round-the-world race this autumn. This is the first time these boats have lined up in anger, and while all three were close as they beat through Hurst Narrows, it was Abu Dhabi Ocean Racing (UAE), skippered by double Olympic silver medallist Ian Walker, that was leading former round-the-world race winner Mike Sanderson on Team Sanya (CHN), with Franck Cammas' Groupama 4 (FRA) bringing up the rear.
There was a hurrah for British sailing fans as the two largest monohulls in the Rolex Fastnet Race fleet thundered up their way up the Solent, with Mike Slade's 100 foot ICAP Leopard (GBR) ahead of the more highly-rated Rambler 100 (USA) of George David. The reason for this was that ten minutes after the gun, Rambler had split her headsail in two and the crew had to scramble to set a replacement.
Before the giant fleet had left the Solent, there were a number of casualties. In addition to the two dismastings, the First 375 Little Spirit (GBR) suffered damage to her forestay during a collision with the Bavaria 44 Emerald Star (GBR) and was forced to retire, as was IRC 3 Howling Monkey (GBR) holed in a collision with the J/109 Jambo! (GBR). The canting-keeled Prodigy (GBR) also retired, with mainsail damage.
Conditions for the bulk of the fleet tonight should be relatively fast, particularly for the smaller boats, which will benefit from the wind veering north of west, as the boats further up the course are set to remain headed.
The main trophy for overall victory in the Rolex Fastnet is the Fastnet Challenge Cup. In addition, there are more than 30 other trophies that will be awarded at the prize giving on Friday, 19 August at the historic Royal Citadel. The Citadel, home to the 29 Commando Regiment Royal Artillery, overlooks Plymouth Sound and Sutton Harbour, where the majority of the fleet will berth.

Fire destroys West Allis funeral home
No one was inside at time of fire
WEST ALLIS, Wis. — Authorities are investigating the cause of a fire that destroyed a funeral home in West Allis.
The fire broke out Friday night at the Schramka-Borgwardt Funeral Home. Firefighters said that by the time crews arrived, the blaze was shooting through the roof.
Officials said no one was inside at the time, and that three bodies in the funeral home were in refrigeration and not harmed. Lisa Marshall, a spokeswoman for the funeral home, said their families were notified that the three bodies were transferred to other facilities. She said their services would not be disrupted.
West Allis Assistant Fire Chief Gary Streicher said the fire may have started around the stack of the crematorium, but the investigation was continuing. Damage to the 88-year-old building was estimated at $250,000.

Chapman University's first "Winterfest and Doy's Holiday Tree-Lighting" on Nov. 29 turned out to be a series of dramatic events. President James L. Doti wouldn't have it any other way. The celebration gave students a chance to break from studying for a free cup of hot chocolate. Yet many probably didn't realize a couple of generous patrons attended: Doy Henley, who had the tallest tree named for him, and Donna Attallah, a naming donor of the Atallah Piazza where the party took place. Here's how it unfolded.
Mini Marketplace
Vendors sold handbags, candy and tamales while students and community members gathered by the hundreds. "I didn't even know that," said Jamie Carroll, 19, after being told Henley was a benefactor. Her roommate, sophomore Kate DeSalvo, 19, recognized his name. "Doy's Place in the basement of the Henley Building has the best pizza. It's open late so you always have someplace to eat."
Holiday Cheer
Music students sang and played. "It's my favorite holiday," said theater major Morgan Lauff, 20. "And I love classical Christmas music. A brass quintet really gets you into the Christmas mood."
Dramatic Reading
Theater professor Michael Nehring provided a lively reading of "'Twas the Night Before Christmas," and at the appropriate moment Henley, dressed as Santa, arrived in a red sleigh pulled by four strapping undergrads with Doti leading the team in a light-up Rudolph nose.
Let it Snow
As the carolers sang a rousing finish, soap bubble snow flurries fell to the delight of children in the audience. Before it was all over, a burst of fireworks shot into the sky behind the library while the merry crowd cheered.

The Oregon State Police (OSP) is crediting the help of a 5-year old Spokane, Wash., boy for possibly saving the life of his 46-year old father who suffered a stroke while driving Sunday morning after crossing into Oregon. With the boy's help and a joint effort involving dispatch centers in Spokane and Oregon, OSP troopers and Umatilla County medical responders found the vehicle and got the man to a hospital for treatment.
OSP Southern Command Center dispatch received a call from Spokane County, Washington 911 on Sunday, just after 7 a.m., about a report from Rachael Bardwell that her son left with his father, Robert Paget, early in the morning and she got a call from her son that they needed help because his father was having a medical emergency at an unknown location, possibly somewhere in Oregon.
During the next few minutes, Spokane 911 worked through the father's cellular phone company to determine the phone's signal pinged on a cellular tower near Stanfield.
OSP Southern Command Center Dispatcher Heather Whitaker provided information to Trooper John Lombardi and Trooper Joseph Dezso as they scrambled from the Hermiston area to check Interstate 82 and Interstate 84, a main route used by travelers from Spokane into Oregon.
Trooper Dezso called Robert Paget's mobile phone and thought he may be suffering a stroke. The phone was given to his son which allowed Trooper Dezso to ask several questions to try and get a description of the surroundings outside of the car. One of the most important details was provided when the boy said a train was passing by the car. This detail helped the troopers move toward Interstate 84 west of Interstate 82 where they knew train tracks paralleled the freeway lanes.
At 7:44 a.m., Lombardi spotted the vehicle on the westbound shoulder of Interstate 84 near milepost 177. OSP dispatch relayed the information to Umatilla County 911 allowing re-direction of an ambulance that was going to a separate location several miles away where it was thought the vehicle may be at. When Lombardi got to the car he found Robert Paget having difficulty speaking, was unable to move one side of his body, and starting to lose consciousness. Lombardi stayed with Paget until medical personnel arrived.
Trooper Dezso arrived a few minutes later and brought the boy back to his patrol car where he stayed with him for the duration of incident.
Hermiston Fire & Rescue medical responders arrived on scene at 7:55 a.m. and transported Paget to Good Shepherd Medical Center in Hermiston. Trooper Dezso took the man's son back to the OSP Hermiston office and then later to the hospital so he could accompany his father in an ambulance as he was being transferred to Kadlec Regional Medical Center in Richland, Wash.
Robert Paget was reported in critical condition Sunday and is expected to survive. Family members said he is showing encouraging signs of improvement.
Troopers Dezso and Lombardi praised the young boy's bravery in helping guide emergency responders to help his father.
"He is a very bright young man and definitely saved his dad's life. We are so glad to hear his father should pull through," said Dezso.
Rachael Bardwell said she recently talked with her son, Dax, about how to unlock the screen and call his mom or dad in an emergency. She urges parents to know the importance of teaching their kids to use technology for emergency purposes, including teaching your child how to find important phone numbers, how to unlock the screen, how to find the key pad on a smartphone, and when to call 9-1-1.
"Luckily, Dax was able to call me and I was able to use Spokane 911 to contact Oregon State Police dispatch to help find my son, his father, and the vehicle they were in," said Rachael.
According to Rachael, Dax wants to be a police officer some day. Despite the frightening situation involving his father's medical emergency, her son enjoyed his time spent with Trooper Dezso.
Teaching your children how to use dial 9-1-1 in an emergency can help get emergency responders to the scene quickly and may help save a life. Here is a link to a wireless carrier's advice on teaching children to dial 9-1-1:

PNC Park Batting Practice
One of the perks that the Pirates offer is the opportunity to take batting practice inside of the PNC Park batting cages. The Pirates usually have an outdoor field day, where fans take batting practice on the field – I participated in that in September. In the winter, they invite the fans to take BP in the cages.
I took two rounds of BP of 10 pitches each. I went 20 for 20 hitting every ball that I faced.
Here's a video of my second round:
There were two cages, one for grown ups which was set to fast speed, and one that flipped balls up there at about 30 mph for the kids. I went into the fast one of course.
The only thing I didn't like was that my follow through kept hitting the net, making it a bit awkward.
After hitting Amy, Olivia and I went up into the hall of fame club to eat some light refreshments. Daniel McCutchen and Brad Lincoln were there, but I didn't go up and say anything to them, especially since McCutchen seems to dislike the serious ballhawks.
Olivia was very well behaved and wasn't phased at all by the crack of the bat.

For what it's worth, I'm an evangelical Christian whose political inclinations are not liberal. I mention this here because posts of this sort tend to prompt irate commenters to speculate about my convictions. Now, on to business.
Rick Green, who does speaking engagements for WallBuilders, takes on David Barton's critics on his site. I stumbled across his defense of Barton while browsing some religious history blogs, and there are a number of points he makes which I find problematic.
He begins by posing a question.
Question: What do elitist professors have in common with Adolf Hitler & Saul Alinsky?
Answer: They masterfully use the powerful art of innuendo to falsely defame those with which they disagree.
Definition of Innuendo: A derogatory hint or reference to a person or thing
For someone who has a problem with derogatory hints or references, Green is surprisingly ready to employ them in taking on Barton's critics. He's just compared them to Hitler.
Furthermore, he doesn't hesitate to impugn their motives, writing that Barton's critics ("elitist professors," as we are reminded a number of times) are motivated by jealousy, since "they write boring books that very few people read and they give boring lectures that are only attended by students forced to do so in order to get a grade," and "they do not want to lose the power of being the keepers of the keys to history."
Green also repeats a defense commonly used by Barton and his defenders, namely that Barton cites and quotes from original sources in his work. That's true, but it ignores the fact that what is often at issue in discussions of Barton's work is his interpretation and contextualization of those sources. That a scholar has used primary sources does not address the issue of how he has done so, which in the case of Barton's work is often the very point being contested. It is the proper use of the evidence, and not simply the presence of quotations or references, that distinguishes good scholarship from bad.
If we're going to have a discussion about the quality of Barton's work, then, the only way to go about doing so is to grapple with the work itself. Green claims that Barton's critics have failed to do this, that they "have not pointed out even one inaccuracy or false statement." I find this statement baffling, since many critics—including a number of evangelical Christians—have been taking issue with specific claims made by Barton for some time. (See, for example, here, here, and here.) Indeed, entire books have been written in response to his work.
Even more puzzling is Green's claim that "if you're wondering why Thomas Nelson would pull the book, perhaps you should know that HarperCollins (secular publisher) recently purchased Thomas Nelson (Christian publisher). I wouldn't have expected Deepak Chopra (New Age Atheist) and David Barton to remain under the same publisher for long." This line of argument makes little sense. HarperCollins publishes books from a number of religious perspectives, including an explicitly Christian one. In recent years Harper (sometimes through HarperOne, its religious imprint) has published Luke Timothy Johnson's defense of traditional New Testament orthodoxy against the Jesus Seminar, works on spiritual formation by Christian philosopher Dallas Willard, and popular theological books by N.T. Wright.
And if it was Thomas Nelson's acquisition by HarperCollins prompted the pulling of Barton's book, why didn't Nelson also pull their other books of an evangelical bent? After all, the bulk of Thomas Nelson's catalogue consists of explicitly Christian and evangelical books by prominent believers and ministers such as John MacArthur, Max Lucado, Hank Hanegraaff, and Billy Graham. If Thomas Nelson's acquisition by a "secular publisher" made Barton's book a problem, why are Billy Graham's books still available through Thomas Nelson?
I think we should all be open to hearing a robust defense of Barton's work based on the evidence at hand and the proper interpretation of it. What Green has offered us, alas, is not that defense. Barton's defenders need to stay focused on the historical claims Barton makes and whether or not he is able to substantiate them—and the same applies to his critics.

Sorry, but the answer's usually yes. Most personal auto insurance policies won't cover you if you're getting paid to use your own car to transport people or property for business purposes.
In general, you'll need to buy a business or commercial auto insurance policy if you are a health care worker who occasionally uses your own car to take clients to appointments. The same is true if you use your own car to deliver flowers, newspapers, pizzas, etc.
If you have questions about your coverage -- and policies do differ -- contact your agent or insurance company directly.

Chickpea Curry
19 comments:
That looks absolutely delicious. I will definitely try this one.ReplyDelete
Yeey, I'm so happy with this recipe!ReplyDelete
What a beautiful and wholesome curry, Maria! I would love to try this sometime. It looks so delicious!ReplyDelete
Oooh, I love this! I'm really into curries and heat right now, and this dish looks like it would warm me straight through. I think Friend's day is wonderful, and wish you a happy Friend's day!ReplyDelete
That looks so simple to create, can't wait to try it out.ReplyDelete
What a beautiful day! Def much better than just couples. What a great way to show your friend you love them :)ReplyDelete
I'm happily married, but couldn't agree more that Friend's Day is a much nicer idea than Valentine's Day. I remember perfectly well the days when I wore all black on Valentine's Day. So happy Friend's Day to a food blogger who's climbing straight to the top of my favorites list!ReplyDelete
thank You*! i just adore making healthy foods for friends & family, that is true Love.ReplyDelete
I love the idea of Friends Day, it's much nicer than the Hallmark enforced V-Day. I think next year we might have to invite our friends over for dinner and make a night of it.ReplyDelete
The curry sounds lovely too, chickpeas are such a versatile little addition to the pantry and I love how the sweet potato has made everything a little orange.
Hi Maria, in Poland we do something similar for all our loved ones and friends as well, it's more of a celebration of relationships in general, and those whom we cherish. Your chickpea curry (one of my favourite vegetarian / vegan dishes) looks absolutely fab!ReplyDelete

There's a shiny new instance of gitorious on git.sugarlabs.org, the new home of the upstream repositories for Sugar.
The following modules have moved over from dev.laptop.org:
- sugar
- sugar-base
- sugar-toolkit
- sugar-datastore
- sugar-presence-service
- sugar-jhbuild
- read
- chat
sugar-jhbuild has moved over as well, and updated to use the new repos. Some of the module names have been changed at the same time, for example presence-service is now sugar-presence-service, and chat-activity is now just chat.
If you're using sugar-jhbuild, the old repo is up to date as of now with the new repos, but I recommend a completely clean build, cloned from the new repo, unless you have the git-fu to change it in place.
Anyone who could commit/push to the old sugar-* repos is welcome to ask for commit rights on the new repos – we can't add you until you register on git.sugarlabs.org. In the mean time, it's trivial to clone a personal repo in the git.sugarlabs.org web interface and push to that and request a merge.

What You Need to Know About the R-22 Refrigerant Phaseout
As a homeowner in Phoenix, AZ or consumer utilizing a cooling system in your home or office, the R-22 refrigerant phaseout is something that you need to be aware of, as well as the impact it may have on your choice in air conditioning equipment.
Why is R-22 refrigerant being phased out?
Through an international treaty known as the Montreal Protocol, the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) of the United States has mandated a R-22 refrigerant phaseout through the Clean Air Act. The EPA had already imposed restrictions on production and distribution of R-22 for cooling systems, and has tightened those restrictions even further. They are allowing systems manufactured prior to 2010 to continue using R-22, but the availability of that product is dwindling, as well.
What is the difference between R-22 and R-410A?
One of the primary differences between R-22 and R-410A refrigerants, and the leading cause for the R-22 refrigerant phaseout, is that R-410A, which contains no chlorine, is considered more environmentally friendly (which conforms to the EPA's Clean Air Act requirements).
What does this mean for Phoenix homeowners and consumers using R-22 systems?
If your system was manufactured prior to 2010, you can continue using R-22, but you will find it harder to obtain. Along with the reduction in manufacture of equipment using that product, the refrigerant itself will see limited production.
What options are available to consumers?
Many companies are now manufacturing and distributing cooling systems that are compatible with R-410A. This allows homeowners and consumers a viable option for equipment replacement or upgrades and permits them to avoid any challenges due to the R-22 phaseout.
If you are in need of information or service relating to your home heating and cooling equipment, contact a local Phoenix HVAC contractor or service provider to find out all the equipment and refrigerant options available to you for your home cooling needs. They can also answer any questions you may have about the impacts of the R-22 refrigerant phaseout.

Inspired by the hits of feel-good House producers like Sigala and EDX, Producer Loops have again enlisted their expert House producer (who boasts multiple Top 100 releases on labels like Spinnin', Ultra and Toolroom) to create a final uplifting slice of Summer for this bestselling series. Quintessential House organs, uplifting leads, mood-setting vocal snippets and M1 basslines run throughout the core of this release, making it an essential addition to any House connoisseur's sample arsenal. So sit back, crack open a cold one, and enjoy the final release in the 'Summer House Anthems' series from Producer Loops. MIDI Files Included: Like so many other Producer Loops products, 'Summer House Anthems 3' includes MIDI files for the majority of musical phrases heard in each Kit, allowing you to seamlessly mix your favourite synths and samplers with the sounds contained in the pack. Advantages of MIDI: While the supplied ACID/Apple Loops/REX files are extremely flexible and powerful, MIDI has the added benefit of allowing you to go to extremes of pitch and tempo beyond which the loops were originally recorded, with no time stretching or pitch shifting artefacts. Furthermore, you can make tweaks to the riffs so they fit perfectly into your existing mixes. Dry/Wet Loops: For users looking to simply drag and drop, the 'wet' files contain all of the effects processing heard in the audio demos. But for producers looking to create their own effects mix, 'dry' loops are also included. Don't like the wet loops? No problem; add your own effects. Unlooped Riffs/Tails: This sample library also comes with unlooped/tail versions allowing you to end a phrase with the decay of the reverb/delay applied to the loop, another "Producer Loops" exclusive product feature. Royalty-Free: All of the loops in this product are 100% Royalty-Free (including any vocal loops), so once purchased, you can use these loops in your commercial releases without having to pay any hidden costs. Specifications: 5 Construction Kits Keys, Organ Basses, Drums and Much More ACIDized WAV Files Apple Loops/AIFF Files REX2 Loops Ableton Live Pack 8.1.3+ Reason ReFill Loops sync to BPM 44.1 kHz/24-Bit PC/Mac Compatible Royalty-Free (No Exceptions) Price and Availability: 'Summer House Anthems Vol 3 is available for instant download exclusively at ProducerLoops.com for £34.95 / 41,39 EUR.

Not that we're aware of, at least here in Washington state.
That said, we're aware that sometimes there is hidden collision damage to a car that can add substantially to the cost of the initial estimate.
With that in mind, insurers may decide to total a car when their initial repair estimate is around 70 percent of the vehicle's current market value. Otherwise, if the repairs are started and costs due to hidden damage escalate another 30 percent or more, they can end up spending more to fix the vehicle than it's actually worth.
The short answer: there is no "official" formula in the law for totalling a vehicle. But insurers look at the repair cost potential. If it's close to the value of the car, they may decide not to even begin repairs, and to simply compensate you for the value of the vehicle.
How do they establish that value? The insurer owes you the actual cash value -- i.e. the retail market value -- of your car. Insurers have to look at local values for comparable vehicles, although with your permission, your insurer can extend the search beyond 150 miles.
If you disagree on the value -- and we get these calls all the time -- you can hire an appraiser and go through the appraisal process in your auto policy. If the dispute is with someone else's insurer, you can either file a claim with your own insurer, or you may want to consider taking the matter to court.
Please see our "What happens after your car gets totalled" page for much more on totalled car values, disputes, and what happens if you opt to keep your totaled car.

The Mets claimed right-hander Jack Egbert off waivers from the White Sox, according to Bart Hubbuch of the New York Post. The 26-year-old only appeared in two games with the White Sox this year and the results weren't pretty. He allowed one run for every out he recorded, so he has a 27.00 ERA to show for his 2.2 innings pitched.
Egbert pitched better at Triple A Charlotte, where he allowed 132 hits and 33 walks in 108 innings. He struck out 78 and finishes his minor league season with a 5.05 ERA.
Egbert's stats.

Depite posting a loss for its second quarter, shares in Salesforce.com surged 19 per cent on Thursday, as the sales software firm beat Wall Street revenue estimates.
Salesforce.com lost $145,000 on a GAAP basis, compared to a profit of $5m for the same period a year earlier. The firm's P&L shows that the sales surge was outrun slightly by stock option expenses and other spending to fuel growth.
Revenue rose 64 per cent to $118m, topping analyst expectations of around $114m. Non-GAAP earnings per share were $0.06, two cents ahead of predictions.
Salesforce.com CEO Marc Benioff said: "While other software companies talk about an undefined on-demand future with undefined products that may or may not be available at some point in the future, Salesforce...is delivering the promise of on-demand services to nearly 25,000 customers with more than 500,000 subscribers around the world today."
The comment was presumably a dig at Microsoft's CRM software and Oracle's Siebel venture.
The firm netted 57,000 new subscibers to its services in the quarter, up 63 per cent on the Q2 2005 total. ®

The Gavita Pro Classic SE 600w grow light is the first 240 volt electronic ballast that powers the professional Gavita 600w 400 volt electronic SE (sing...More
The Gavita Pro Classic SE 600w grow light is the first 240 volt electronic ballast that powers the professional Gavita 600w 400 volt electronic SE (single ended) High-Pressure Sodium (HPS) lamp. This lamp has the highest PAR light output, improved spectrum and the best light maintenance. Being the most efficient horticultural lamp available and the only lamp specifically developed for electronic ballasts, this is the lamp of choice for Dutch professional greenhouse growers.
A 400 Volt HPS lamp is much more efficient than a standard HPS lamp. Both systems consume 600 Watts and therefore cost exactly the same to run but the Pro HPS lamps run at a higher voltage and a lower current. 400 Volt Pro HPS lamps produce more light for the same power consumption and will give at least 10% higher yield compared to even the best standard HPS systems. In fact, when they are seen side-by-side, the HPS lights are noticeably brighter, run cooler and the light they produce is slightly whiter. So in addition to them giving a higher yield, plants grown under a 400 Volt Pro HPS are healthier, happier and are at less risk of heat damage too.
The way that the Gavita Pro HPS lights works is that UK mains power (230 Volts) is fed directly to the combined ballast and reflector via a standard mains power lead. The special ballast then converts the mains electricity to drive the special 400 Volt / 600 Watt Philips Greenpower lamp. The distance from the ballast to the lamp is very short, meaning that virtually no power is lost through the connecting cable. The reflector has been especially designed to give a superbly even light spread despite it's small size. The surface of the reflector has one of the best coatings available and gives at least 95% reflectivity.
400 Volt / 600 Watt Pro HPS Philips Greenpower lamps maintain their efficiency and light output for much longer than standard HPS lamps. In fact they will normally last at least a year before they need to be changed out. It should be noted that normal HPS lamps and 400 Volt Pro HPS lamps are NOT interchangeable with different ballasts. Standard HPS lamps should only be used with standard or digital 230 Volt ballasts. 400 Volt Pro HPS lamps should only be used in lighting systems with a 400 Volt Pro HPS ballast like with this Gavita Pro product. 400 Volt Pro HPS lamps can be identified by the HPS EL marking on them.
Approximate light coverage per unit :
250w = upto 50cm sqr area
400w = upto 1mtr sqr area
600w = upto 1.5mtr sqr area
1000w = upto 2mtr sqr area

When a laptop is stolen, it is gone and so is everything that was on it. Three losses occur: 1) the loss of the machine, 2) the loss of the information on the machine , and 3) the possible security breach if it has sensitive information or school data.
To minimize each of the losses, you need to take the corresponding measure, BEFORE any theft occurs:
Of course, the best approach is to avoid having your laptop stolen to begin with. Here are some tips:
For more protection:
Use secure passwords and update them regularly. The best passwords use a combination of letters, numbers and symbols. You can find more information here. Secure passwords are extremely important because it's not just the hardware and software costs that make your laptop valuable. Stored information like your social security number, credit card numbers and social networking profile information can make you a target for identity theft.

Over the past week the mercury has crept a little higher and many of our snow piles are gone! So Cheryl and I went for a little walk around the perimeter of the parking lot this afternoon. Before I tell you the results of our search, I thought I would share the results of last week's poll.
You guys have a lot of faith in finding this mitten. 41% told her to not give up, but cast on another one…just to be safe and 35% of you believe she is going to find it! I hope you are right…for her sanity's' sake. Only a combined total of 14% of you thinks she won't find it.
I am elated to tell you that she found her mitten. And can't tell you how happy she is. She was doing a little dance and everything. I have to say that it's in really good shape too. It needs a washing, but other than that it looks great!
For once in my life I am happy to say that I was wrong.
The winner of the random drawing is Katy! She will be receiving these 2 balls of Liberty Wool Print in the mail shortly!
Knit on!
P.S. Cheryl says that although someone else won the giveaway…she's the one who really won.

"So this happened…" she Tweeted.
"I only became a celebrity because I had a kid. Before I was pregnant nobody cared," Philipps has joked in the past. "I joke to my agent that having a baby made my career."
Here's to double the success!
