To Whom It May Concern, Over the last handful of years, I have completed a bachelor's in liberal studies, completed CA and TX multiple-subject teaching credentials, and completed a master's in education administration. I have recently completed the coursework for a Doctorate in Education emphasizing sports and athletic management. My education and experiences have given me the knowledge to work as a team member, assisting others in reaching their potential, managing program finances, and identifying compliance regulations. I have also had the opportunity to work at SCICON as an intern teaching CA 6th-grade science leading other interns and students. I have worked in San Jose, teaching 7th-grade all subjects. I am currently teaching math as an adjunct professor at North Central Texas College. I have worked as an assistant and head swim coach for multiple teams over the last 14 years. These experiences have taught me the importance of leadership, teamwork, and how to run/organize group functions. I appreciate your time and consideration. I look forward to speaking with you soon.

Nicholas Gaggiano
Greetings! My name is Nicholas Gaggiano and I began my coaching career in 2000 as a summer swim coach at the Wykagyl Country Club in New Rochelle, NY. After 2 summers of coaching, I began coaching with the Gael Aquatic Club in New Rochelle. I instantly felt drawn towards to idea of helping guide athletes towards their goals both in and out of the pool. I loved that the swimmers could use skills and lessons that they learned in the pool and apply them to their everyday lives outside of the pool. In 2007 I moved home to Chicago to work as a coach and swim lesson director for the Chicago Wolfpack Aquatic Club. CWAC allowed me to develop as a coach and the ability to work with many swimmers of different ages and different stages of their careers. From the swim lesson programmed I developed necessary skills to help swimmers develop stroke fundamentals and a love of the sport of swimming. With the 8 and under group I was able to see the progression from learning how to swim, to learning how to be a competitive swimmer. Seeing the kids get stronger as the season progressed and developing terminology and understanding between coaches and swimmers was a great lesson I learned from those swimmers. With the senior group, I was able to develop season plans, goal setting, season training phases and see the competitiveness of the swimmers. This group allowed me to experience championship level swimming (Sectionals, State Champions, Futures, Jr. Nationals, Nationals) and what it takes from both the swimmers and the coaches to achieve a high level of swimming success. I was also introduced to the recruiting process and how it affects not only the swimmers and their parents, but also the coaches and the club overall. With the Boys & Girls Club I was able to do more club development and administration. I learned more about meet manager and team manager and team unify. I was able to develop more communication skills and see the teamwork that is involved in being successful. Building a team from 12 swimmers to 62 swimmers in a six year span taught me skills and tools needed to not only build a program up, but to continue to strive for improvement. Working at the Boys & Girls Club allowed me to push myself to get creative with training and how I though about age group swimming in the sense that not all of the swimmers could afford their own equipment or even bathing suits. It forced me to use my social skills and relationships to develop fundraising for the program in order to keep the program moving forward. My short time at the Boise YMCA allowed me to view a program that has produced many collegiate level swimmers and allowed me to work within a program that operated out of multiple facilities. I was able to develop relationships with the kids in a short time and it exposed me to how another LSC operates. I was introduced to new drills, training techniques and meet planning. The Age Group program saw great improvement in the 6 months before the shutdown and we had multiple age group swimmers with top 30 times in USA Swimming times search. It also allowed me to work within a club with a parent board and introduced me to the different aspects of working within a team that is run by not only it's parent board, but also a non profit organization like the YMCA. I am looking to move on to a Head Age Group/Associate Head Coach position with the goals of coaching competitive swimmers committed to the goals of reaching their highest potential.

As a former Division I collegiate swimmer and current Masters swimmer, I am passionate about the advantages of enabling individuals of all ages and levels access to the sport. While living in Korea in 2019 I had the opportunity to not only attend the FINA World Championships in Gwangju, but also participate in the FINA Masters World Championships. These transformative experiences inspired me to seek employment opportunities with USA Swimming so that I can contribute to the development and accessibility of swimming nationally and worldwide. My 10 years of professional experience, which includes corporate wellness management as well as international teaching, in addition to my personal achievements, aligns perfectly with the vision and mission of USA Swimming. I would appreciate the opportunity to add value to the USA Swimming organization in a corporate-level capacity.

My swimming philosophy capitalizes on the laws of physics to achieve maximum potential and speed. Technique is the number one component to my practices. Drills are used in order to get the students swimming correctly in a very short period of time. Because of stroke similarities, most of my practices are broken up into concentrations on free/ back, breast/ fly, or IM days. Turns and dives are reinforced every single session, as they are what separate the great from the mediocre. I believe that it is important to prevent the faster swimmers from getting bored, and slower swimmers from feeling discouraged. I arrange the lanes according to ability and give extra instructions or faster intervals/ longer distances as needed. We always finish together for dives at the end of practice. I have a work hard/ play hard outlook. Spiderman, dolphins, sharks, and rockets are some of the references used on a daily basis in order to relate to the swimmers. If I am able to get through practice without interruptions, we often play a game for the last 5-10 minutes. All of my dry land exercises are directly related to what we are doing in the pool that day. I often show videos in my teachings. We frequently study world-record races in order to stay abreast of the fastest techniques and look at our own recordings in order to correct certain movements as well. As a USA Swimming coach, I have regularly utilized TeamUnify when registering athletes for meets, emailing weekly updates to parents, editing the schedule, and obtaining swimmers' records. Swimming has been a constant life-long passion of mine. I competed with USA Swimming for eight years and swam with US Masters over the course of three. When I swim, I am constantly thinking about my body movements and how I can get to the other end of the pool with the least amount of energy as possible. I am happy in the Raleigh area, but also excited about the opportunity to relocate. I look forward to hearing from you.

I have been a competitive swimmer for the past 12 years and have been competing for my university's Division III swim team, where I currently serve as captain. I have had many accomplishments in the sport during my time in college. Last year, I made second team All-Conference in the AMCC 2019 Championships in the 100-yard Breaststroke, the 200 Individual Medley Relay, and the 400 Individual Medley Relay. At the AMCC 2020 Championships, I made second team All-Conference in the 200 yard Breaststroke and came in 3rd in the conference for the 100 yard Breaststroke, the 200 & 800 Freestyle relay, and the 200 & 400 Individual Medley relay. Alongside this, I also hold six school records for my school. Prior to my time here at Franciscan University, I swam for the Wilton Y Wahoos for 8 years and have served on the CT Swim Board as an Athlete Representative. As a competitive swimmer and captain of my university's swim team, I recognize that in order for a team to strive they must have the following: discipline, responsibility, and teamwork. Individuals should strive to discipline themselves so that when it comes to training, they know the skills they need to improve on. Each is responsible for their own work as well as helping their teammates. With this comes the importance of teamwork. A team is unable to grow if they are not willing to work with each other. Just like I do in swimming, I strive to help others so that they can perform to the best of their abilities. I absolutely love the sport and would love to help others strive in the sport. As a swimmer who is only five feet tall, I recognize how crucial it is to have perfect technique. Perfecting my technique as a swimmer has allowed me to pursue goals of mine that are harder to achieve with lack of height. I believe that I am capable of helping the swimmers perform to the best of their abilities by helping them with their technique, as well as help them with their endurance.

Even though the 2012 harvest season is rapidly drawing to a close, most areas of southern and western Minnesota remain in severe to extreme drought, with conditions worsening in the past couple of months. The latest U.S. Drought Index places all of south-central and southwest Minnesota in an extreme drought category. Approximately 85% of the major corn- and soybean-producing areas in the U.S. are currently experiencing some level of drought, including most of the Western Corn Belt States and nearly all of the Plains states.
According to precipitation data at the University of Minnesota Southern Research and Outreach Center at Waseca, the region has been in drought-like conditions for the past 14 months. From Aug. 1, 2011, to Sept. 30, 2012, Waseca received only 62% of their normal rainfall, receiving over 16 in. of total rainfall less than normal. For the three-month period from July 1 to Sept. 30, 2012, Waseca received only 4.49 in. of total rainfall, compared to a normal amount of 12.24 in., which is 37% of normal. Some areas of western south-central Minnesota and southwestern Minnesota have received even less rainfall than Waseca during that period.
The only two months in 2012 that Waseca received significantly above-normal precipitation were June with +1.81 in. and February with +1.29 in., with nearly 2 in. coming as rainfall on Feb. 29. Those two months helped replenish depleted stored soil moisture supplies, which ultimately helped lead to the better-than-expected 2012 corn and soybean yields in many areas of southern Minnesota, even though the later growing season was extremely dry.
The continued drought across the region is certainly a concern as we look forward to the 2013 growing season. Stored soil moisture levels across the region are at historically low levels. Most reporting stations have only 1-2 in. of stored soil moisture in the top 5 ft. of soil, compared to normal levels of six to seven inches of stored soil moisture in early October. The ongoing drought conditions are also highly visible with the extremely low levels of lakes, rivers and streams across southern Minnesota.
Harvest Wrapping Up
The fall harvest season has been almost unbelievable in the Upper Midwest during September and early October, with almost perfect fall harvest weather conditions. In fact, the long string of very warm, sunny days with very low humidity and virtually no precipitation has been almost too perfect. These very unusual 2012 harvest conditions have led to corn and soybeans drying down too fast, poor fall tillage conditions, and a very high danger for field fires. The extremely warm, dry weather pattern has resulted in a rapid completion of both soybean and corn harvest in most areas.
As of Oct. 8, soybean harvest was virtually completed in most portions of southern and western Minnesota, except for some areas with later-planted soybeans. Overall, most reported soybean yields for 2012 were average to slightly below average, with yields in the eastern portions of south-central Minnesota and in southeast Minnesota being slightly higher. The whole-field yields in most other areas were better than expected, given the ongoing drought conditions during the 2012 growing season, but were generally slightly below long-term average yields. Locations that received some timely rainfalls during late July and early August had some better soybean yields.
Corn harvest has also progressed rapidly in most portions of southern Minnesota, with nearly 80-90% of the corn harvested at many locations, as of Oct. 8. Corn yields across the region have been highly variable in 2012, as a result of the widespread rainfall events at various locations during the growing season. There have been isolated whole-field yield reports of over 200 bu./acre; however, there have also been yield reports of 120-130 bu. in the same general area, with even lower yields in some locations. Differences in planting date, corn hybrid, crop rotation, soil type and storm damage have also helped account for some of this yield variation. When the 2012 corn harvest is completed, farm operators in southern Minnesota will likely end up with yields that range from near average to 20-25% below average, depending on field conditions.
The good news for all producers regarding the 2012 corn harvest is the low harvest moisture of the corn coming out of the field, and the high quality of the corn. Most of the corn being harvested in south-central Minnesota in the past few weeks has been at 13-17% moisture, meaning it can go directly to farm grain bins without additional drying, or can be hauled to grain purchasers with very little price dockage for excess kernel moisture. The rapid field drydown of the corn is saving most farmers $25-30/acre in anticipated corn drying costs. Most of the corn being harvested has a test weight that is at or above the standard test weight for corn of 56 lbs./bu.
The rapid drydown of the soybeans this fall has led to some hidden costs for farm operators. Many of the soybeans this year were harvested at a field moisture content of 8-10%, which is well below the desired harvest moisture content of 12-14%. Harvest losses during combining increase significantly at those very low moisture contents, with harvest losses of 2-4 bu./acre not unusual when harvesting below 10% moisture.
The biggest soybean harvest loss may occur when the soybeans are sold at grain elevators. Soybeans are priced on the basis of 13% moisture. When soybeans are sold below that level, the farmer loses the value of the extra weight that is lost. For example, selling soybeans at 8-9% moisture compared to 13% moisture results in a loss of approximately 70-80¢/bu. at a soybean price of $16/bu.

Foreign dignitaries have a bad reputation when it comes to paying their parking tickets.
In many world cities, ambassadors have been known to simply ignore their parking tickets, confident that their diplomatic immunity makes it nearly impossible for their host city to ever collect.
In New York alone, United Nations ambassadors racked up 150,000 unpaid parking from 1997 to 2002, before the U.S. State Department passed a special law allowing the city to tow the worst offenders.
So does Vancouver have a similar problem with consular officials racking up tons of unpaid tickets?
The short answer is no.
But that's only half the story.
Using parking data obtained through the Freedom of Information Act, The Vancouver Sun searched for tickets handed out to vehicles with red consular plates, identifiable because they start with the letters "CON" or "CC".
Most consular vehicles found by The Sun had only a few tickets.
The worst offender — plate number CON 927 — had just 14, a relatively modest amount compared to some of the worst offenders in the city.
And city payment records show most of the tickets given to consular vehicles have been paid.
So are diplomats in Vancouver just better parkers than in other cities?
Not exactly.
Precisely because the city had difficulty getting diplomats to pay their tickets, it decided several years ago to stop ticketing them for expired meters or minor time-limit violations, essentially giving diplomats free parking at any downtown meter.
And that's in addition to the specially reserved parking spots that some consulates have.
However, the city will still ticket — and tow — a car with red plates for more serious violations, such as parking in a bus zone or near a fire hydrant.
Paul Melten, one of the city's superintendents for parking enforcement, said word of this policy has got around to the city's diplomats, which is why they're rarely caught now for more serious offences.

ON THE HEELS of San Francisco Bay and adjacent Marin wetlands being given a special worldwide designation, Sens. Dianne Feinstein and Barbara Boxer have re-introduced a bill seeking money for restoration work for the estuary.
Dubbed the San Francisco Bay Restoration Act, the bill authorizes five years of funding for the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency to carry out wetlands restoration projects and improve water quality in the San Francisco Bay and its watershed.
"This bill authorizes the resources necessary to help restore tidal wetlands and improve water quality throughout the Bay Area," Feinstein said. "The San Francisco Bay is vital to the economy and ecology of Northern California and deserves our attention."
Earlier this month, the San Francisco Bay estuary and many associated wetlands in Marin were added to a list of protected areas under the 1971 "Ramsar Convention" international treaty among 163 countries meant to limit damaging development along ecologically important waterways.
The Feintein-Boxer bill would amend the Federal Water Pollution Control Act to authorize the EPA to provide grant funds to address the San Francisco Estuary Program's Comprehensive Conservation and Management Program completed in 2007. It lays out a roadmap for restoring and protecting the bay.
In Marin, the program outlines a plan for a comprehensively managed wildlife refuge consisting of approximately 25,000 acres. The foundation for the refuge would be the former Hamilton Airfield, Bel Marin Keys, Bahia and other nearby areas, all of which have been acquired and have moved forward in restoration planning.
"The establishment and comprehensive management of a refuge system in east Marin County and southern Sonoma County (San Pablo Bay area) would be invaluable for endangered species recovery efforts," according to the program's report.
"San Francisco Bay is important to the economy and the environment of the whole region," said Boxer, who served on the Marin County Board of Supervisors between 1977 and 1983.
The legislation prioritizes funding for projects that will protect and restore habitat for migratory waterfowl, shorebirds and wildlife and improve and restore water quality and rearing habitat for fish.
Congress provides between $5 million and $7 million a year in funding for the bay, but this bill would provide an ongoing source of dollars for improvements, said Beth Huning, coordinator of the Marin-based San Francisco Bay Joint Venture which brings together public and private agencies and others to restore wetlands and wildlife habitat.
"Right now we have to rely on grant programs," she said.
This bill was approved last year by the Senate Committee on Environment and Public Works, of which Senator Boxer is chairwoman, but was not considered by the full Senate.
At one time, there were 196,000 acres of wetlands around San Francisco Bay, but that has been reduced to about 40,000 acres as land was diked for farming and development.
In the North Bay, up until the mid-19th century, there were some 55,000 acres of wetlands, providing ideal conditions for migrating waterfowl, acting as a nursery for a variety of fish species and an incubator for plants. A potent mix of wetlands — tidal marshes, tidal flats, vernal pools, streams and creeks — provided optimal conditions for a myriad of life.
But areas were diked and planted with oat hay, which was shipped to farms as animal feed and for use in stalls. As the wetlands dried up, so did the number of species, and today many are listed as endangered. Some 82 percent of San Pablo Bay's wetlands were diked by the time of the Great Depression. Today, about 10,000 acres remain as wetlands.
"They are really important for wildlife, for flood control, as a water filter and for the fish," Huning said. "We think this bill will be a big boost for the bay."

Assuming there will be Elf Sets, of course.
Personally, I'm looking forward to graceful, simple designs. Not a lot of ornamentation, but maybe some clever SNOT. The architecture should look organic and wooden. Lots of brown and green. I also want lots of bows in the new brown, and katanas as well. In fact, the orcs got a new mold for their swords; why not the elves?
Plenty of minifigures are also a must. I'm thinking Dark Forest-esque torsos and brown or green capes. I'd also like a lot of horses, maybe in a new color like tan or burnt orange. In fact, I'd like an Impulse set with a horse, a longbow, a cape, and a katana. Because mounted archers are awesome.
One other point: don't kill me, but I think that Elves should be fleshies. It would really set them apart without resorting to helmets with pointy ears or something. It would also give all the other peach heads a use, or at least an explanation.
And no beards. Elves do not have beards.

On the final day of campaigning, President Yahya Jammeh vowed to rule for the next 40 years. Mr. Jammeh, who seized power in 1994 as a 29-year-old army lieutenant and went on to win elections in 1996 and 2001, told supporters that he ruled through God and that "no coup d'état or elections can remove me." He faces two challengers but warned at the rally in Serekunda, east of the capital, Banju, "I will develop the areas that vote for me, but if you don't vote for me, don't expect anything."

Vegan cooking for non-vegans.
Hello! I'm having a couple of old friends over for dinner in a couple of weeks. I am vegan, they are meat-eaters. One is a very picky eater who absolutely hates vegetables. The other is pretty adventurous, as far as food goes, so she'll try anything. My "picky" friend does love pasta and soup. She's also from a large Italian family, so she knows good Italian food. Any suggestions on what I should make?
I have a friend who is also horribly picky and doesn't care for vegetables. We had him over for dinner one night and I made a Vegan lasagna, and he actually went back for seconds! We used Daiya Cheese (the shredded cheddar and mozzarella kind), crumble tofu into really small pieces so i resemble ricotta, and made our own homemade marinara sauce. I love broccoli, carrots, and onions in my veggie lasagnas, but not everyone does, so it you can to leave it out. We just layered, sauce, noodles, veggies/tofu, cheese, and repeat. I can't remember what we cooked it at, but the lasgana noodles should have a recommended temp and time. Oh, and I'm gluten-sensitive, so I actually used DeBoles Rice noodles that you just cook in the oven. It is seriously delicious, and my friend was raving over it!
Even a vegetable-hater, if they're of Italian stock, should love minestrone. Cut the veggies up kinda small, lean heavy on the beans (green and dry both) and taters, and ramp up the herbs and seasoning. Tomato paste is definitely your friend for a minestrone.
I recommend the following recipe for meat lovers. It helped my Spanish hubby go vegetarian which is something I never expected :

Eclipse Aerospace, Inc. (EAI) is proud to announce receipt of Supplemental Type Certification (STC) for both the Auto Throttle and Anti-Skid Brake (ASB) systems for the Eclipse 550 twin-engine jet. The Auto Throttle, developed in partnership with Innovative Solutions & Support, is a first for FAR Part 23 aircraft. The lightweight ASB system is the only ASB in general aviation that does not require a complex aircraft hydraulic system, thereby reducing maintenance and allowing for simple operation with very few components.
With the addition of auto throttle system, Eclipse 550 pilots will be able to select the appropriate airspeed for the autopilot to maintain and the autopilot will automatically adjust the engine's power settings in various phases of flight. Along with overspeed and underspeed protection, this new feature will greatly reduce the pilot's workload, and increase the overall safety of flight.
"The development and certification of these new technologies is the result of a great team effort between Eclipse, Innovative Solutions & Support, Advent Aerospace, and the FAA. The addition of these new technologies exemplifies our commitment to build the safest, simplest to operate, jet in the world." stated Cary Winter, Eclipse Aerospace SVP Manufacturing, Engineering, and Technical Operations.
The Anti-Skid Brake system, which can be retrofitted to all Eclipse 500 with the IFMS® avionics package, allows for maximum braking energy and skid control. The new ASB system will include a brake control valve installed in each wheel well, two axle-mounted wheel speed sensors, a logic control board and a software update to the Avio Processing Center. Testing has shown the ASB system will stop an aircraft, under dry runway conditions and at normal landing speeds (70-100 knots), in approximately 700 feet.
"I am very excited to announce these new technologies for the Eclipse Jet and it further demonstrates that the Eclipse Aerospace team is committed to keeping the Eclipse Jet as the most advanced general aviation aircraft in the world," stated Mason Holland, EAI's CEO. "The entire Eclipse Aerospace team will continue to invest the resources, time, and effort to improve this wonderful aircraft so that it maintains its reputation as the most advanced twin-engine light jet in the world."
The Eclipse 550 features best in class performance, economics, and safety. The Eclipse 550 can fly at altitudes up to 41,000 feet at a max cruise of 430 mph, all while consuming a mere 59 gallons of fuel per hour. This new aircraft from EAI comprises a dual channel integrated flight management system, anti-skid brakes, the newly redesigned instrument panel with high-resolution displays (PFDs and MFD), a pilot standby display unit, ADS-B Out, a three-year factory warranty, and an incredible array of additional safety features.

A Lexington firefighter was in court this week on theft charges after he allegedly was seen on camera stealing money from a co-worker's locker.
A Lexington firefighter was in court this week on theft charges after he allegedly was seen on camera stealing money from a co-worker's locker.
Stephen M. Schick, 41, of Norwood, Mass., has been charged with four counts of larceny and four counts of breaking into a depository, and was arraigned in Concord District Court Monday, where he pleaded not guilty. He will reappear in court Sept. 10.
Schick was put on administrative leave in May and resigned three days later. He worked for the Lexington Fire Department for 10 years.
"[The theft] was brought to a supervisor's attention, who brought it to the chief's attention, who brought it to my attention," said Lexington Town Manager Carl Valente. "Because it involved theft, and we didn't know what was going on and who was involved, we brought it to the police department."
Police estimate between $500 and $600 was stolen over the course of two months. Schick was not arrested, but summoned to court.Schick declined comment Friday.
After Schick's coworker told supervisors that cash had been repeatedly taken from a locker in the fire station, police began an investigation that culminated on May 17 when Schick was caught by video surveillance opening the victim's locker and removing the wallet inside, according to court documents. Those same documents also indicate that Schick confessed to the police to at least four thefts.
"These thefts have been going on over a period of time," said Lt. Joseph O'Leary. "We believe that the evidence we have is solid."
Court documents also revealed the police department's investigation involved supplying the victim with a motion-sensitive camera, which was hidden inside the locker. That video allegedly shows Schick opening the locker and removing a wallet, then replacing it a few seconds later. The police department put money in the wallet that morning, and $80 was missing after the video was taken, according to the documents.
"These crimes are troubling and disappointing but are not representative of the hard-working and dedicated men and women of the Lexington Fire Department," said Fire Chief William Middlemiss in a statement.

Palestinians in Gaza prepare graves for the dead | Reuters
The Israeli officer missing in Gaza was likely killed in an airstrike, Hamas said on Saturday as Israel's 'Operation Protective Edge' entered its 26th day. It was reported that 23-year-old Second Lieutenant Hadar Goldin was abducted during clashes with Palestinian fighters early Friday in Rafah, an area in southern Gaza.
"We lost contact with the group of combatants that took part in the ambush, and we believe they were all killed in the bombardment. Assuming that they managed to abduct the soldier during combat, we assess that he was also killed in the incident," Hamas' military wing explained in a statement on their website early Saturday.
Two other soldiers were killed in the same attack, raising the number of Israeli military fatalities to 63. The announcement came not long after a 72-hour humanitarian ceasefire agreed upon by Israel and Hamas collapsed within two hours of being launched.
The short-lived ceasefire
A statement released by Hamas' military wing firmly blamed Israel for the quick collapse of the ceasefire brokered by the US and UN. "What happened east of Rafah Friday morning was that occupation forces took advantage of the alleged humanitarian ceasefire to penetrate our land for more than two kilometres. We estimate that our fighters who were in the area clashed with the Israeli troops around 7:00, before the alleged ceasefire went into effect."
However, the Israeli military have claimed that the attack occurred at 9:30 a.m, an hour and a half into the ceasefire.
Although the exact timing of the attack remains disputed, the US quickly accepted Israel's version of the event and released a statement condemning Hamas for its "barbaric violation of the ceasefire." President Barack Obama later warned Hamas that the soldier needs to be "unconditionally released" if they are "serious about trying to trying to resolve this situation."
Retaliation in Rafah
According to Al-Jazeera, at least 70 people were killed and 100 wounded when Israel resumed its bombardment of the besieged Gaza strip shortly after the alleged abduction of Hadar Goldin. It isreported that at least 35 of the Palestinians killed overnight were slain in the Rafah region.
There have also been fatalities in the West Bank as Hamas called on Palestinians to participate in 'Day of Anger' demonstrations in solidarity with Gaza. It is reported that live bullets used by Israeli forces in Hebron injured over 90 people on Friday.
Israeli forces also shot and killed on Friday 22-year-old Tamer Faraj Sammur during a demonstration in Tulkarem, a city located in the north of the West Bank, and 19-year-old Odai Nafiz Jabr during clashes in a village west of Ramallah. This brings the three-week death toll in the West Bank to 15. In this time over 1,600 people have been killed in Gaza; a number that now exceeds the total people killed in Israel's 2008-2009 assault, 'Operation Cast Lead'.

The fortress of Eger is located east of the town on a hillside. Its actual location was not ideal from a military point of view - the castle overlooks only the southern and western parts of the walled town - however, it had the advantage over the Ottoman forces as it provided excellent locations for gun positions. The castle comprised an inner and outer fortress with a gate tower to the southeast and 6 bastions on the walls - the Earth Bastion and Prison Bastion to the northwest, Sándor Bastion on the north wall, Bolyky Bastion on the northeast corner, Bebek Bastion on the eastern corner of the outer fortress and the Dobó Bastion on the western wall. The Varkoch gate sat on the southern wall of the inner fortress while a further bastion, Church Bastion, lay at the centre of the wall separating the two parts of the fortress. The fortress of Eger was built on the ruins of an earlier stone fort, which replaced an ancient earthen encampment, possibly erected by the Huns. This made Eger's foundations stronger than usual and greatly hindered the work of Ottoman miners. As was usual during sieges at that time, both the attackers and the defenders tried to dug tunnels under the walls and plant gunpowder charges to either open gaps into the fortress or destroy the attacker's trenches. None of these attempts were successful during the siege of Eger.
Eger is one of the most beautiful Baroque cities in Hungary. The centuries-old architectural heritage, the ecclesiastical treasures, the wine culture, the thermal baths and numerous cultural events combine to make Eger the most significant tourist centre in Northern Hungary.

If you've already gotten the Special Holiday Issue of Fat Quarterly (and if you haven't, get cracking!), you've seen the lovely coverage they've given to Fa La La La Felt (many many thanks yous to the Fat Quarterly folks!!). As part of a holiday round-up, I remade my Oopsy Daisy stockings from the book... following my original instructions. What an exercise it was! And here are the results, hanging from the bar. I riffed on the original pattern a little (less daisy, more asterisk!) and used some of the Kate Spain Christmas fabric the FQ team sent me. I'm also including a free tutorial from the book (over on the Lark Crafts site). Happy stocking making!

Insurance rates released by Walker questioned
Health care advocates called into question information released Tuesday by Gov. Scott Walker's administration showing dramatic rate increases for insurance plans to be sold through the new marketplace created under the federal health care law.
The marketplaces, or exchanges, will be open for enrollment starting Oct. 1 with coverage beginning Jan. 1. They will offer small businesses, individuals and families a choice of private health plans, similar to what workers at major companies get, with subsidies for low-income consumers.
About 500,000 people in Wisconsin are expected to be shopping for coverage through the exchange, including about 92,000 currently on Medicaid who will be losing their coverage starting in January and 400,000 who have no insurance.
A month ago Walker's Office of the Commissioner of Insurance announced that 13 insurance companies would be offering plans to individuals through the exchange, but did not provide any details about rates or coverage areas.
On Tuesday, the insurance commissioner released an analysis showing what it said was the difference between what individual coverage will cost for a plan with a $2,000 deductible and prescription drug coverage currently and through the exchange. It did not examine costs in the group market.
The analysis looked at rates for individuals aged 21, 40 and 63 in nine Wisconsin cities. Rates would increase in all 24 of its scenarios, ranging from 9.7 percent for a 63-year-old in Kenosha to nearly 125 percent for a 21-year-old in Madison.
However, the analysis didn't take into account federal subsidies, which are expected to lower costs as much as 77 percent, or show the difference in benefits or co-pays.
"I think they've done nothing but confuse and mislead the public rather than give them serious information," said Robert Kraig, director of the health care advocacy group Citizen Action Wisconsin. "These look cooked and they're even hard to analyze because of the way they were released."
Jon Peacock, research director of the Wisconsin Council on Children and Families, said not enough information was released to be of use to people who may be shopping for coverage through the exchange.
"Given how sketchy this information is, I can't help but wonder if they were even striving to make even-handed comparisons," Peacock said. "I'm not going to accuse them of stacking the deck because I don't know enough."
J.P. Wieske, a spokesman for the insurance commissioner's office, was in a meeting and did not immediately return a message.
However, Insurance Commissioner Ted Nickel cautioned in the press release that comparisons are difficult to make given that rates will vary based on a person's age and where they live. Nickel also acknowledged that the federal subsidy "will offset the actual premium being charged for low-income consumers."
Ohio also did not take into account federal subsidies when it released an analysis showing that premium for individuals would go up an average of 41 percent in that state. Like in Ohio, insurance regulators who released the data in Wisconsin are a part of a Republican administration that opposes the federal law. Walker has repeatedly called for the health care law to be overturned. He also declined to have the state set up the exchanges, deferring instead to the federal government.
Information about the coverage area of plans being offered through the exchanges in Wisconsin won't be released until later this month. Citizen Action did its own analysis, which the insurance commissioner's office refuted, showing that every part of the state will be covered by at least two insurance companies.
Nickel, the insurance commissioner, and those critical of the analysis his office released did agree on one point: the best way to know what plans will cost is to review what is offered once the exchanges go live in October.

The Boulder County Coroner's Office said the female inmate who was found unresponsive in her cell in May hanged herself and today ruled the death a suicide.
Boulder County Coroner Emma Hall ruled that Kimberly Kuhrts, 34, of Boulder, died of asphyxia due to hanging, according to a news release this morning. The manner of death was ruled suicide.
Kuhrts was found unresponsive in her cell by Boulder County sheriff's deputies at 1:15 a.m. May 21, according to a news release. Medical personnel tried to revive Kuhrts and transported her by ambulance to a local hospital, where she died.
Court records show that, at the time of her death, Kuhrts had two pending criminal cases against her in Boulder County. In one case, Kuhrts was facing charges of second-degree burglary and aggravated motor vehicle theft, while Kuhrts was facing charges of second-degree kidnapping and third-degree assault in the other case.

- Gun violence recommendations are expected from Vice President Biden on Tuesday
- The proposals are expected to contain substantive and symbolic ideas to curb gun violence
- Presidents use symbolism to shift public opinion or affect larger political or social change
Washington (CNN) -- The pictures told the story: Vice President Joe Biden looked solemn, patrician and in control as he sat at a long table in the White House, flanked by people on both sides of the gun control issue.
The images conveyed a sense that the White House was in command on this issue.
And that's the point. Historically, presidential administrations have used symbolic imagery—at times coupled with marginal actions—to shift public opinion or affect larger political or social change.
"Politics is a risk taking project," said Julian Zelizer, a Princeton University historian and CNN contributor. "They put together these commissions in response to some crisis. You try a hundred things and hope something works."
On the eve of the Biden-led gun control task force recommendations to President Barack Obama, political experts say it is important that his administration sends a clear signal that it has things in hand.
That is especially critical in what will likely be an uphill battle to push specific changes, like an assault weapons ban, as part of a broader effort on gun control.
The first move in the image battle will be to appear to move quickly and decisively.
"You have to give the Obama administration credit for one thing: They've learned from history to do things quickly," Larry Sabato, director of the University of Virginia's Center for Politics, said of previous task force initiatives that fizzled.
In 2010, Obama appointed a bipartisan commission headed by former Republican Sen. Alan Simpson of Wyoming and Erskine Bowles, a former Democratic White House chief of staff, to come up with a proposal to balance the budget and cut the debt.
Like the gun task force, Simpson-Bowles reviewed current regulations, gathered input from the public and engaged in tense internal conversations. But after months of working on a proposal—a blend of steep revenue increases and spending cuts—the group struggled to agree to a solution. The president did not take up the recommendations.
Obama largely avoided the issue of gun control during his first term.
He wrote an opinion piece two months after the 2011 assassination attempt on Rep. Gabrielle Giffords of Arizona, acknowledging the importance of the Second Amendment right to bear arms. In the piece he also called for a focus on "effective steps that will actually keep those irresponsible, law-breaking few from getting their hands on a gun in the first place."
But in the aftermath of that shooting and as the election season loomed, the Justice Department backed off from a list of recommendations that included a measure designed to help keep mentally ill people from getting guns.
For now, at least, there is a sense in Washington that the Newtown, Connecticut, school shooting where 26 people -- 20 of them young children -- were slaughtered could lead to meaningful legislative reform.
Public opinion would seem to suggest that the White House efforts are well timed.
In the month since the massacre, a new poll showed the percentage of Americans who said they were dissatisfied with America's gun laws has spiked.
The Gallup survey released on Monday showed 38% of Americans were dissatisfied with current gun regulations, and wanted stricter laws. That represented 13-point jump from one year ago, when 25% expressed that view. "You want to strike while the iron is hot," Sabato said. "We Americans have short attention spans and, as horrible as the Newtown shooting was, will anyone be surprised if we moved along by spring?"
The White House has since worked overtime to show it considers gun control an urgent matter.
The vice president has spent the last week meeting with what the White House calls "stakeholders" in the gun control debate.
On Monday, Biden was to meet with members of a House Democratic task force on guns, along with Attorney General Eric Holder, Homeland Security Secretary Janet Napolitano, and Kathleen Sebelius, the secretary of Health and Human Services.
In a series of face to face discussions on Thursday, Biden sat down with the National Rifle Association and other gun owners groups before conferring with representatives from the film and television industry.
In a sign the White House is prepared to move aggressively on its proposals, Biden made public comments just before meeting with the National Rifle Association, the country's most powerful gun lobby.
"Putting the vice president in charge of (the task force) and having him meeting with these groups is intended to show seriousness and an effort to reach out and respond to concerns and wishes of various groups," said Alan Abramowitz, a political science professor at Emory University.
Still, the NRA expressed disappointment in its discussion with Biden and later released a statement that accused the administration of mounting "an agenda to attack the Second Amendment."
Organizations seeking tougher gun control laws insist an assault weapons ban is critical to addressing the nation's recent rash of mass shootings. However, such a ban could be difficult in a Congress mired in gridlock.
"The bully pulpit is limited. It's hard for the president to sustain that momentum," Zelizer said of the White House's gun control efforts after the Newtown shootings. "The thing about symbolism is, like the shock over Newtown, they fade quickly."

Gardener brings desert to S. Texas
For avid gardeners such as Mary Irish, moving is a true uprooting. When Irish, a horticulturist and author of eight books about gardening, moved from Phoenix to Castroville last year, she and her husband and fellow gardener, Gary, dug up hundreds of plants to transplant here.
Though Phoenix is hotter and drier than Castroville, the two areas share a variety of plant species, she says, and she covered many of them in her garden guides for the Southwest. As plant sales coordinator for the San Antonio Botanical Garden, Irish hopes to introduce some of the drought-tolerant specimens to area landscapes. Though propagating new species and generating supplies for sales will take some time, visitors to the garden's sale on May 5 will find a selection of natives and drought-tolerant specimens.
Irish's forthcoming book, "A Texas Gardener's Guide" from Cool Springs Press, should be out by late summer.
We caught up with her last week to discuss plants and her budding landscape. Here are excerpts from that conversation.
Phoenix can expect about 7 inches of rain a year. Coming over here felt really different. A lot of native flora and other flora that didn't do so well there will grow here.
It's always exciting to try new stuff that you're sort of familiar with but now you get to be at home with.
We are planting Hill Country plants and South Texas natives, and we brought a lot of plants with us from the Sonoran Desert and some from the Chihuahuan Desert.
We brought a plant called Baja fairy duster (Calliandra californica). We brought it for sentimental reasons, but there's one at the San Antonio Botanical Garden parking lot that's been planted there for many years.
We brought bulbs and bromeliads. We're anxious to see how they do.
We inherited a Salvia farinacea (mealy blue sage) by our mailbox. We do nothing to it, and it's magnificent. In Phoenix, I had one, but I had to baby it.
There are a lot of really beautiful woody shrubs here like Texas olive, wafer tree and native plums. These are plants we will be able to grow here that we couldn't there.
There are just too many. It's like picking your favorite child.
Turk's cap (Malvaviscus drummondii) is really common in a way, but there are forms of it. There are pink ones, there are white ones and there are red ones. There are big ones and there are small ones.
Lots of people see rain lilies (Zephyranthes candida), but I'm not sure how many people put them in their yard. It's going to be there forever, and they require no care at all.
Spiderwort (Tradescantia spp). Nobody grows those as an ornamental plant, and I can't figure out why. There are tall ones and short ones.
There's no end to good plants. You keep moving on.

IN EIGHT years as pope, Benedict XVI's boldest act may have been his last one. His planned abdication at the end of this month, which took the world and most of the Catholic Church by surprise, would be the first by a pope in nearly 600 years. Though the Vatican said he was not suffering from any life-threatening ailment, the 85-year-old pontiff concluded that he lacked the "strength of mind and body" to carry out his ministry in a world "subject to so many rapid changes and shaken by questions of deep relevance for the life of faith."
The hallmark of Pope Benedict's tenure, for better or for worse, was fierce resistance to those changes. He rejected calls by Catholic progressives for reconsideration of doctrines such as celibacy and the ban on women in the priesthood; at a time when acceptance of the rights of gays and lesbians is rapidly spreading across the world, he was outspoken in condemning homosexuality as "unnatural" and unacceptable. With sectarian tension growing in Europe as well as the Middle East, he eschewed dialogue with Muslims and infuriated many by quoting a condemnation of Islamic theology as "evil and inhuman."
The pope presided over a faith whose demographic center of gravity has shifted to Latin America, Africa and Asia, yet he chose to focus his ministry on an attempt to revive Catholicism in Europe, including its most conservative elements. By some important measures, he failed. Church membership continued to decline even in Germany, his native country and the site of his best-received tour. In the developing world, once-growing Catholic churches lost ground to other faiths.
Pope Benedict's response to the greatest challenge he faced — the explosion of sexual-abuse scandals in Catholic dioceses around the world — was inadequate. During his visit to the United States in 2008, he met with victims of predatory priests; he later apologized for the crimes and oversaw modest Vatican measures to extend the statute of limitation for cases and prevent further abuse. But the pope never acted against bishops who covered up crimes, and he never admitted or apologized for his own failures during the years when, as Cardinal Joseph Ratzinger, he headed up the Vatican body charged with disciplining priests.
Some of Pope Benedict's most important achievements came in response to the backlash triggered by his reactionary acts. Pilloried for having suggested before a tour of AIDS-stricken Africa that the use of condoms "increases the problem," he later suggested that the use of a condom by an HIV-infected person to avoid infecting a partner could be a positive step. After angering Jews by rehabilitating a bishop known as a Holocaust denier, the pope prayed at Auschwitz and published a book exonerating the Jewish people for the death of Jesus.
Pope Benedict will leave behind a church facing the same debilitating problems that loomed after the death of Pope John Paul II — above all, how to remain relevant to an increasingly secular world and to its own changing membership. This pope's response was to insist that only uncompromising adherence to past doctrine could preserve the faith. Catholics who seek a different answer will have to hope that a college of cardinals dominated by the pope's appointees will choose a more progressive successor.

The Secret Saturdays is an interesting cartoon. Part Johnny Quest, part Ben 10, The show has a really great feel to it that I think appeals to both adults and kids.
The show centers around a family of Cryptozoologists who go on missions to protect the identity of supposedly mythical creatures like Bigfoot and Chupacabra. It's an interesting premise, and the animation is not that bad.
Mattel has the master license and showed some initial toys at toy fair. Unfortunately, they only showed the creatures from the show, not the actual characters. Also shown was a role play item - Zak Saturday's claw staff.
The Secret Saturdays can be seen on the Cartoon Network.

Post subject: Looking for chocolate Truffle recipe
I am hoping to find an easy/simple recipe for chocolate truffles. I like to make hand-made treats to hand out during the holidays, but not the traditional stuff that everybody else already does (like fudge). I'm hoping to find a simple enough recipe so that my children, ages 7 & 9, can help out. I figure if we find a recipe now, we can perfect it by next holiday season. Thanks for any assistance you can offer!

Hi I have made this with young children and I could almost have left them unattended once they got the idea, except you will end up with far more truffles if you remain in the kitchen.
one incentive to control them selves is to make some special ones to be eaten when the job is finished, and some especially for significant others. Kids Love to show off their skills.
Chocolate Raisin Truffles
250 g Chocolate
250 g white chocolate
1/2 Cup Fortified tea for a kids version, booze for the old people.
125 Ml Cup Fresh cream
50 g raisins
50 g cocoa butter
100 g milk chocolate
Pre Prepare
- Fortified Tea and fruit
soak four tea bags in 1 cup of boiling water till cold, remove bags and boil tea till reduced to 1/2 cup. throw in the raisins and Soak for two days. You may think this is weird but the when you taste the finished product you would swear there was really nice booze in it.
Chocolate Cups
wrap some aluminum foil around wooden shape.
I have a dozen metal rods, with shaped ends covered with silicon which I put them in the freezer for a few hours before using.
Melt the Chocolate. Gently dip the sticks in the chocolate to form a little container. let sit for a few seconds (chocky end up) and then pop them off or give them a second coat. Kids love making the cups. Put them on waxed paper, and store in the fridge. You can knock out chocky cups really fast like this.
Make your Ganache. - The filling -
heat the cream to just under a simmer and mix in the white chocolate.
- Assemble your Truffle
Put a few raisins in each chocky cup.
cover with ganache leaving 3ml to the top
pour chocolate in to seal then chill

Ops also add cocoa butter to the the Ganache at that stage.
also ignore the word cup I inadverantly used when stating the quantity of cream.
Hope it all works out for you. #;-D
cheers Ray

Hi again, just an after thought.
You could freeze the Ganache till it is malleable then form into shapes and continue freezing
- When good and hard
1. dip into melted chocolate or
2. drop into molds filled with melted chocolate
A good source of molds can be found at
this would lower the skill required and still produce a fantastic product.
I use the larger molds it cast jelly-Aust or Jello-US for deserts, great for any frozen delights you make as well. Oh and Pate.... as well
never limit your imagination

Hi Kimm,
I just made a bunch for New Year's evening and they came out quite good. I'm the kind of cook who does not adhere to recipes, but I will give you the general idea.
I used 350 gr. of black chocolate and approx. halve this amount of cream (175 gr) and butter (175 gr).
Melted the chocolate "au bain marie" and added the cream and butter. Made sure everything was dissolved.
I poured the contents in three pre heated cups.
In one cup I added some orange peel finely rasped and some crunched roasted walnut.
In the other cup I poured some brandy and in the last one some other liquor.
Let the cups cool down and then with a spoon picked some chocolate out and rolled it in a small ball. The ball I then rolled in some more crunched walnuts and .. voila.

St Anne's Head is the northern gateway to Milford Haven Waterway, one of the UK's major oilports, formerly an important fishing port and a deepwater harbour, which Lord Nelson praised as "the finest in the world next to Trincomalee in Sri Lanka."
When Henry Tudor and his uncle Jasper landed at Milford Haven in August 1485, they took no chances sailing up the Haven Waterway, but landed as soon as they entered the shelter of St Anne's Head, the French flotilla that brought them dropping anchor in Mill Bay. To have ventured further up the harbour would have raised the alarm far earlier, so, with the small party of French troops who accompanied them, Henry on his way to claim the crown of England and Jasper to regain his Earldom, they got ashore as soon as was practically possible.
History does not tell us whether or not their approach and landing were veiled by one of St Anne's Head's characteristic summer sea mists, but it is more than likely, and they were on the march before a waiting party of loyalists led by Sir Rhys ap Thomas met them a couple of miles inland at Mullock Bridge. At one time a supporter of Richard 111, the Welsh nobleman had pledged that Henry would challege the crown "over my body," so, in order, to keep his oath, he crouched under the bridge as Henry rode over, then joined him.
Henry gathered support as he rode via Haverfordwest and through Wales to Bosworth Field where he met and defeated Richard to take the crown. By the time he reached the Leicestershire battlefield, he had gathered a small but well trained army, as effectively as the Pied Piper gathered rats.
Observers on the clifftop at St Anne's Head today will see no French flotillas, but can watch the comings and goings of the supertankers that serve the Haven's two oil refineries, Amoco and Valero, and two LNG terminals at South Hook, formerly the Esso oil refinery, and at Waterston, site of the former Gulf oil refinery. They can also watch the Pembroke to Rosslare Irish Ferry taking its twice daily trips across the Irish Sea and observe the passing flotilla of small fishing boats and yachts that use the Haven.
Near the disused quarry on the western side of the headland is an interesting feature for the geologically-minded. The down- and up-folding of the rock here, which is faulted on the landward side, demonstrates in miniature the large-scale folding underlying the whole of the south of the County. Replaced by a new lighthouse a couple of decades ago, the old St Anne's lighthouse was bought by a local entrepreneur who turned it into a very desirable and unique residence with magnificent views up the Waterway, and out to the offshore bird sanctuary islands. Peaceful in summer, St Anne's Head can be so violent in winter that it is difficult to stand up in gale gusts of over 100mph.

L'abbé C
M. Boyars, 1983 - 158 páginas
Told in a series of first-person accounts, L"'Abbe C" is a startling narrative about the intense and terrifying relationship between twin brothers. Charles is a modern libertine, dedicated to vice and depravity, while Robert is a priest so devout that he is nicknamed L'Abbe'. When the sexually wild Eponine intrudes upon their suffocating relationship, anguish, delirium, and death ensue. Other works by Georges Bataille published by Marion Boyars include "Blue of Noon" and "My Mother Madame Edwarda and the Dead Man.

Better CD Rates for Repeat Customers
The more accounts you have at a bank, the better interest rates you may get.
When it's time to roll over a certificate of deposit, fishing for a higher interest rate is always smart. But before you yank savings out of your current bank, see whether it will offer you a higher rate for being a repeat customer. For instance, Ally Bank recently offered an interest-rate bonus to a customer who renewed a $15,000 six-month CD for 11 months.
Some banks offer higher CD rates to customers who maintain multiple accounts. Connexus Credit Union ($5 to join the Connexus Association and $5 to open a savings account) offers members a 1% rate for six months on balances of $10,000 or more (0.5% on balances below $10,000). To earn that rate, you must have a checking account with direct deposit, make ten monthly withdrawals and sign up for e-statements. Digital Federal Credit Union ($10 minimum to become a member of an affiliated service organization) offers an extra 0.25 percentage point on CDs if you have a checking account with direct deposit and have an active loan or credit card account. With a minimum $25,000 deposit, Digital's 27-month Jumbo Jump-Up Certificate with Relationship Checking pays 1.23%.
Keep an eye out for CDs with promotional terms and rates, too. State Farm Bank recently offered a nine-month CD that paid 0.8% with a $500 minimum -- a higher rate than it was offering on its standard CDs with maturities of three years or less. NerdWallet compiles a weekly index of bonus rates on CDs. For more on earning top rates on CDs and other safe places to park cash, see Where to Stash Your Cash Now.
