LUMBERTON — A Pembroke man excitedly turned the key to a new car on Thursday that he paid his fair share for.
"It's nice to have the United Way do the work they do in a community like this," said James Strickland, an employee at Tredegar in Red Springs. "I appreciate my company letting me participate. It feels real good knowing you're trying to do the right thing. Participating is a great feeling. The dealerships are great for joining in on this. And winning is beyond amazing."
Strickland, 42, randomly picked one of five envelopes after he was the last person standing in a reverse raffle that brought to an end the United Way Car Giveaway, then opened it to discover he had won a Ford Fiesta, which lists for about $14,000. The other envelopes held the names of the other vehicles that he could have won — a Chevrolet Spark, Nissan Versa, Honda Fit and Toyota Yaris.
Jeff Prince, the owner and manager of Fair Bluff Ford, happily handed over the keys.
"I'm pleased to be a part of this," Prince said. "It's my first time being involved and it feels great to give back to the community. The United Way is a great organization and they do great things in the community."
David Carroll joined Strickland as one of the last two people standing, but he sounded more like a winner than someone who had barely missed winning a new ride.
"I feel blessed being involved," Carroll said. "Giving to the United Way was a blessing in itself even though I wasn't chosen. It was really nerve-racking waiting for them to pull the last number."
Sandra Oliver, executive director of the United Way of Robeson County, ensured all the 19 names were mixed well in the cylinder before the dealership representatives eliminated one person at a time — Damien Ralston; Debra Jackson; Murray West; Laura Davis; Kimberly Gore; Rocky A. Locklear; Trina Dixon; Shirley Strickland; Rose Freeman; Susan Rozier; Teresa Tyler; Carletta Prevatte; Michael Terefenko; Deborah Council; Walter Whitted; Stephanie Chase-Bullard; Kathryn Lawrence; and Belinda Oxendine. There were 20 finalists picked during 10 weekly drawings, but one person withdraw from the contest voluntarily.
"This is so exciting," Oliver said. "Most of the car dealers have come together as a group to give away a car. The only thing you generally get from donating is a good feeling. We think the car donations make it unique. We are the United Way and it's a united effort between the dealers and us. It adds a dimension of fun."
The other participating dealerships were Terry Chapin Nissan, Lumberton Chevrolet, Lumberton Honda and Peterson Toyota.
"We love the United Way," Terry Chapin said. "It's a great opportunity to give back to the community. You always have to give back a little bit."
Representatives of many of the agencies that receive United Way funding were among more than 100 people who watched the event, which was held in the Centre Court at Biggs Park Mall.
"Without the funds from the United Way, we wouldn't be able to reach out to the amount of people we do," said Darlene Jacobs, the director of the Robeson County Church and Community Center. "It's critical that we are a recipient of such wonderful funds."
People who donate a "fair share" to the United Way, which is defined as one hour's pay per month, were eligible for the contest. This year's goal for the United Way was to raise $715,000 — and the organization is about $100,000 shy of that figure with money still coming in.
The funding is critical to Southeastern Hospice, according to Vickie Atkinson, who works with the agency and attended the event.
"It means our patients receive quality care," Atkinson said. "Some have no insurance or are under-insured and the United Way funds allow them to receive the care that they desperately need. The United Way does truly amazing things."

From the world of commercial perfumery: When a particular fragrance, masculine or feminine, has been a huge success, its makers will often try to capitalize on its success by creating "spinoff" fragrances. These "spinoffs", called flankers, might be similar to the original olfactorily, but with a different spin or variation put on it. "Light" versions, "sport" versions, "veil" versions are common types of flanker. Traditional SHALIMAR perfume seems heavy and musky to a whole new generation of Millennial women accustomed to fragrances which smell detergent, aquatic and ultra "clean". With this in mind, the company's house, GUERLAIN OF PARIS, has launched a new flanker: a much lighter version of the classic 1925 sexbomb, pruned of its muskier elements, called simply SHALIMAR LIGHT.

Illustrations pour une affiche en sérigraphie, exposée lors du festival
à Nantes le week end dernier, organisé par les copains des ateliers
Vide cocagne
Chacun des treize illustrateurs invités devaient réaliser une image d'après une phrase s'inscrivant dans une histoire dont on ne savait rien d'autre que notre propre portion, comme un cadavre exquis. L'affiche finale se composant d'une élévation et d'une partie montage pour réaliser la petite scène en volume, telle les activités d'écoliers d'antan. Le beau montage final de l'affiche a été réalisé par les copains Radar. Merci à eux pour ce super projet!
This is a screenprint poster I did for an exhibition in Nantes (France) for a comic and illustration festival this past week end, organised by my good friends from
Atelier Radar
. This is part of a series where each of the thirteen illustrators had to illustrate a sentence, part of a bigger story, but without knowing it all, a bit like a "cadavre exquis". The caption says:
"The islanders organise the revolution". You can cutout and build the little scene.

backgrounds and the title sequence

There are several experiences that all songwriters face. Every songwriter has had writer's block at some point. You either become bored, frustrated, or just plain blocked. Writer's block is a terrible experience but have you ever hit "that wall". I know that the wall is considered synonymous with writer's block most of the time but my definition deviates. Writer's block is a temporary condition in which you can't seem to write a song - music and lyrics just don't flow. It sucks, its painful, its a lot like constipation but it is a cakewalk compared to the wall.
When you hit the wall you feel as if you will never be able to write a song again. Nothing you've ever written is good when you hit the wall and you can never come up with anything better or more original than what you've already written. You think about it obsessively, you go out and do all the things you would do to halt writer's block but it won't work. I recently worked through a year long block where I wrote absolutely nothing and thought my days of songwriting were over. The feeling of hitting the wall is much like a deep depression. I can't tell you what will work for you but I can give you some ideas as to how to overcome your blockage.

She loved it so much that she could not wait till Tuesday each week and always made sure her scrap book was full of colour each weekend before the next class so that she could get her sticker from Wynne at the beginning of each class. Eva only missed one class because she was sick and also a couple because we went on holidays (much to her disappointment). I liked how Wynne always had the work set aside in a pouch and we could complete it at home, this way Eva never missed a letter or any of the activities. Eva loved making the things associated with each letter and we still have them all put away safely in a box and pull it out from time to time. This ye

My eldest son did 2 years of Learning Land (L&N and RTR) a couple of years ago and loved it so much that not only did he ask every day if it was "Learning Land day" but he never missed one single class! Even when we went to QLD for a holiday, he was upset that he had to miss out!! My younger son is in his second year of Learning Land (Ready to Read) and he loves it as much as his brother:) I am ecstatic that the children are learning heaps whilst having so much fun! The teachers Miss Genna (Genevieve) and Rae (Raelene) are lovely, helpful people and have been absolutely brilliant! I believe Learning Land helps prepare the children for their next step - school. Highly recommended!!!!
My twins have been attending Learningland for the last 12 months and I was so impressed that I have enrolled them in the program again this year. Suzanne does a marvellous job of capturing the attention of little children and teaches them numbers and letters in an enjoyable manner. Suzanne's dedication and the scrapbook activities undertaken each week, now means my children can not only recognise each letter but can create the sound that each letter produces. I would highly recommend the program to others.
My son loves this class! He loves his teacher, Louisa. He knows his letters and enjoys the stories about each letter. It really has sparked his interest. He is very proud of his art work and scrapbook. We have enrolled for next year and I would definetly recommend Learningland!
I wish I knew about this program earlier. My 5 year old son gained more in this one hour weekly class than he did going to kinder. From being concerned about his school readiness, in 6 months, he could identify his letters, and by the end was able to read simple words and being to read sentences. The craft work the children created for each weekly letter was outstanding and is displayed on our bookshelf at home as a reminder of all the lovely work they did. I would highly recommend this program and Suzanne put her heart and soul into the program and into our children.
My son has been going for 2 years and have signed him up for another year along with my daughter this year. I think it's a fantastic start for preschool children to gain the basics of numbers, letters and words. Having fun along the way always helps. Louisa is great with the kids and would highly recommend this to all!
Absolutely fantastic, my son loved going each week and the variation of letters, numbers and crafts was just right ! Louisa was a marvellous teacher and my son learned a great deal.

Here we are, and another year has arrived! I don't know about you, but I am feeling a little sluggish after an overindulgent holiday season. Even though I was still doing my best to exercise and eat healthy, when I was out at holiday parties, I ate what was there. And there were definitely times that I ate things I shouldn't have and paid for it later. I'm human, though, and the holidays happen.
Instead of dwelling on it, I'm getting things back in order! Last night? Salad for dinner. Today? Minty-delicious fennel and celery green juice.
This easy, vegan wild rice salad makes for a quick and nutritious lunch or dinner that will get you back in the groove with your healthy eating this new year.
serves 3-4
1 1/2 cups wild rice, cooked (3/4 cup dried)
1 1/2 cups canellini beans, cooked (3/4 cup dried beans, or one can)
1/2 cup raisins, soaked in hot water for 10 minutes to plump
1/3 cup cilantro or parsely, chopped small
juice of 1/2 lime
1 tbsp balsamic vinegar
2 tbsp olive oil or other oil (flax)
2 drops stevia or 1 tsp honey or maple syrup
Mix the cooked rice, beans, raisins, and cilantro or parsley together in a large bowl. Mix the dressing ingredients together separately and then toss the salad in the dressing. Bam! So easy!

Qualcomm: A Cheaper Way to Play Apple
NEW YORK (TheStreet) - If you're looking for a way to play Apple(AAPL) earnings, there may be no better derivative than Qualcomm(QCOM) , which reports second-quarter earnings after the bell on Wednesday.
With its chips in Apple and Samsung products, as well as a host of others, Qualcomm is well positioned for the smartphone boom. Demand for all things Apple, in particular, is strong, and, as a key iPhone and iPad partner, Qualcomm stands to benefit.
Additionally, AT&T(T) and Verizon's(VZ) push to 4G/LTE (Long Term Evolution) networks also spells good news, according to Barclays Capital analyst Jeff Kvaal. "We expect Qualcomm to deliver another quarter of solid MSM unit shipments given healthy unit handset market volumes, including key partners Samsung and Apple, and strong demand for LTE, including the initial ramp of the 8960," Kvaal wrote in a recent research note.
The 8960 refers to Qualcomm's new dual-core Snapdragon chipset. Kvaal rates Qualcomm shares "overweight" with a $75 price target.
Shares of Qualcomm have been able to ride the coat-tails of smartphone and tablet growth this year, gaining 22.5% year-to-date.
TheStreet has already referred to Qualcomm as "the king of 4G".
As the trend towards mobility continues to grow, thanks to smartphones and tablets, Qualcomm should continue to reap the rewards, but Credit Suisse analyst Kulbinder Garcha notes Qualcomm is more leveraged to smartphone growth at this point. "Within the telecom equipment sector, we believe Qualcomm remains the highest quality business model with the best visibility," he wrote, in a note. He reiterated his "outperform" rating and $80 price target.
Qualcomm's business is so strong the company recently raised its dividend. Effective June 20, it will pay a quarterly dividend of 25 cents a share, up from 21.5 cents a share.

Xanne completed her "doctorandus" studies (Bachelor's & Master's) in Human Movement Sciences at the Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam in 1995. Her major was Exercise Physiology and as part of her studies she conducted a research project at the University of Sydney. Xanne spent the next few years travelling back and forth between Sydney and Amsterdam on research awards and fellowships. She settled permanently in Australia in 1998 and completed her PhD on the menstrual cycle and exercise performance at the University of Sydney in 2002. She then worked as an Exercise Physiologist in musculo-skeletal rehabilitation, as a sports facility coordinator and as a lecturer at the University of Western Sydney. Since 2006 Xanne has been a lecturer at the University of Newcastle and she is the program convenor for Exercise & Sport Science. Besides her research interest in exercise performance in females, Xanne has also been collaborating on applied sport science research with the Central Coast Mariners FC and recently at the VU University Amsterdam. Xanne is the chair of the Sport Science Advisory Committee of the Judo Federation of Australia and has established research links with Podiatry.

Research expertise
One of the main areas of my research so far has been the effects of the menstrual cycle on exercise performance. Throughout ovulatory menstrual cycles women are exposed to continuously changing female steroid hormone profiles. The physiological changes accompanying these hormone fluctuations may affect exercise performance. As an acknowledgement of my expertise in this area I was invited to write a review on this topic for Sports Medicine. Research into the effect of the menstrual cycle on exercise has grown significantly since publication of my review. It signifies an important step in the catch up in the area of female exercise physiology.
Areas of focus in my menstrual cycle research are temperature regulation, endurance performance, aerobic performance and muscle function. I am also interested in assessing if the "trainability" of females is affected by the fluctuations in female steroid hormones. My research on the influence of the menstrual cycle phase on skeletal muscle characteristics was published in the Journal of Physiology. This research addressed methodological problems identified in earlier work and provided clarification on an ambiguous topic. The research investigated muscle function during three phases of the menstrual cycle (early follicular, late follicular and mid luteal) as identified by significantly different concentrations of oestrogen and progesterone. Muscle function was measured both through voluntary muscle contractions and through the use of electrical stimulation. The results of this study suggest that the fluctuations in female reproductive hormones throughout the menstrual cycle do not affect muscle strength, fatiguability and contractile properties.
My other areas of research are described below in the section "Collaboration".
A strong research focus is the time-motion analysis of soccer through our link with the Central Coast Mariners Football Club. GPS technology is used to record position, velocity and acceleration during matches and training. The advantage of GPS technology is that it is more accurate than previous techniques and is able to record position and velocity for every second of a match and/or training session. The Exercise & Sport Science staff and research students are tackling the challenge of processing and analysing the enormous amount of data and generating a useful summary of the player's performance. This information is useful because it allows the estimation of the physiological demands of playing soccer. It also provides useful information to coaches that can be used to design optimal training regimes.
In 2010 Xanne spend 5 months at the VU University Amsterdam collaborating on research on methods of training monitoring during team sports, in particular soccer. There are many similarities between the research with the Central Coast Mariners and that conducted at the VU University Amsterdam. Xanne's research visit to Amsterdam is likely to result in further collaboration with Amsterdam.
At the Chair of the Sport Science Advisory Committee of the Judo Federation of Australia, Xanne is involved in applied sport science research in judo focussing on the national team.
Xanne has established links with Podiatry in a project investigating the effects of foot orthoses and lumbopelvic stabilising exercises on pain and disability in people with low back pain.

Leveraging Your NSF Certification: Now that you've received NSF Certification ... why not leverage the Mark to your advantage.
The NSF Biosafety Cabinetry Program was initiated over 25 years ago at the request of the regulatory community, including the Centers for Disease Control (CDC), National Institute of Health (NIH), and the National Cancer Institute (NCI).
The first phase of the program was the development of NSF/ANSI Standard 49 for the evaluation of Class II laminar flow biological safety cabinets. The standard was completed in 1976, followed by the implementation of a testing and certification program to that standard, titled the Biosafety Cabinetry Certification Program.
The third and final stage was completed in 1993, titled the Biosafety Cabinet Field Certifier Accreditation Program.

I am embarking on a weight loss plan...and I am in the process of readin Dr. Berstein's Diabetes Solution...I always have problems with exercise where I feel the need to eat carbs to fuel the workout but then I feel like I am not going to lose weight...From what I have read online,Dr Berstein suggests taking a glucose tablet each hour....but does he suggest this for diabetes wanting to lose weight?
I'm not sure what Bernstein says about it (it's been about 12 years since I read the book) but I had this amazing experience with low carb and energy and exercise a while back, and right after it happened, I read the part of Good Calories, Bad Calories (great book to read if you're going to be doing any kind of low carb diet!) that predicted it would happen. Another book to read if you're planning on doing low carb and working out is Phinney and Volek's The Art and Science of Low Carbohydrate Performance. I think they recommend no exercise for the first two weeks after starting LC.
Basically, before I started LC'ing I had no energy at all and just wanted to sit around as much as possible. Then after I started LC, I got this energy boost that was great (knew this would happen as I've been on and off LC for years), and always makes me feel ten years younger. But about six weeks into LC'ing all of the sudden I started WANTING to exercise. Like, I just wanted to move and exercising just felt good. This is not normal for me. lol But apparently it is something that kicks in once you get into a deeper state of ketosis and it feels great. I didn't need any added fuel and definitely not carbs.
I don't know if this would carry you through if you're working out seriously (I was just getting a bit of exercise). I wouldn't be surprised if it did, though.
His recommendation is so minimal I can't imagine it helping anyone retain their weight. 4 grams. No one is gaining weight on that and an hour's exercise.
You may need more than 4 grams just to keep out of lows. Depends how vigorous.
But I do not know what he suggests for those desiring to lose weight.
Personal research trumps all else so that one knows what one's blood glucose is doing with weight loss exercise. Test, ensure you're at 100 (give enough glucose tabs to get there). Determine the type of exercise and do each kind for timed segments and repeat it when you exercise so you then know exactly what your blood glucose is doing. Test every half hour. And test 2 hours and 4 hours afterwards, too.
I don't think that you need that many carbs to fuel a workout. I've been running since 2009 or maybe the last week of 2008 and have maybe 6-8 oz of skim milk (ok, sometimes I'm *really* lazy and just swill it out of the bottle...) to run 3 miles. It's not an hour but I push myself as hard as I can most of the time and generally see a "predicted high" about a mile in, as the milk hits, and a "predicted low" near the end, as it burns off. I like it when this happens as I feel like I know what I'm doing. I don't usually eat that many carbs during the day, maybe like 30-45, usually eggs/ veggies/ toast (8G/ slice) in the AM, 1/2 peanut butter sandwich (17G) plus 8G of carbs worth of carrots/broccoli @ lunch and maybe a Greek yogurt for another 7G of carbs. I can run 3 miles on that. If my BG is higher when I start, I skip the milk but I'm usually in the 90s and it goes ok w/ milk and I end up where I started. I've played around with different rates and adjustments but that's what works for me.
Dr. Bernstein is very interesting but is very hardcore. I've lost some weight (peaked @ 275 and am now around 185-90 lbs...) and haven't ever gone to 30G of carbs/ day. I like "Good Calories/Bad Calories" too, along with Taubes' other book, "Why We Get Fat" and they seem to suggest that less carbs can get you there as readily as picking an arbitrary low number. The "history of the science" suggests as many as 75G of carbs can result in weight loss. I eat more than that but maybe I cheat by working out a lot. I don't think 1x tab/ hour will make you gain weight. It's most important to keep your BG ok but I think that if you moderate your diet and exercise to "get healthier" (faster, stronger, more able to enjoy a stroll...) you can lose weight.
i have always considered myself to be basically following the bernstein diet...low carb, moderate protein, but reading up on it now there are a lot of details i missed out on! can anybody here tell me what they eat on a typical day while following dr. b
I'm approaching my 6-year anniversary of controlling T2 with diet and exercise only thanks to Crazy Bernie, as we called him when we started. But I am also rapidly approaching age 63 with other physical difficulties, so eating super low carb is very important because, while I exercise 75 minutes to 2 hours/day, it is necessarily at a moderate level. I eat 4-6 ounces of meat/day, mostly chicken, but also good small steaks or roasts, fish, etc. Eggs and cheese for protein, also. A big, simple salad twice/day of mixed greens, red bell peppers, green onions and mushrooms. My sweetie also does really delicious lightly sauteed veggie mixes. The biggie for stability has been finding 4-carb pitas and lavashes from Joseph's bakery---made with flax, stone ground wheat and oat bran. After 6 years there are tons of tastey substitutes available. Berries are the only fruit I can eat---mostly blueberries, but also sugarless raspberry jam and I always have homemade sugarless cranberry sauce on hand.
But I also use the flax pitas to make a great pizza. With Gerri's help, I never lack for a lo-carb sweet treat if I want one. I make a mean lasagna with chard leaves between layers instead of pasta. My sweetie has developed 2-3 great creamy soups that are low-carb comfort food for winter (my faves are mushroom and pea).....
Etc. Once you get focussed and committed, one can eat like royalty and it is fun to adapt old favorite recipes......Judith in Portland
Hello, I just finished reading his book last month. What I got from it was that he suggests taking one glucose tab each hour for extended cardio to stop blood sugar from dropping. The amount of calories in glucose tabs are minimal so if you need them while you are working out, don't hold back. Make sure to check your blood sugar frequently during your first couple sessions to find out how your body responds to that exercise. A general rule is that strength training increases blood sugars and extended cardio(~20mins +) reduces blood sugar. Let me know if you have any other questions! Hope this helps a little.
I've followed Bernstein since 2006. Bernstein doesn't recommend any specific amount of glucose, he recommends you ingest the right amount to maintain a normal blood sugar. If you are doing low-moderate aerobic exercise for more than 30 minutes, it will be common for you to start to drop lower as your insulin sensitivity can double during exercise. Bernstein suggests that a gram of carbs raises your blood sugar 5-10 mg/dl (although for me it is more like 2-3 mg/dl). If you drop 50 mg/dl over an hour of exercise, you would need 5-10 grams of carbs to maintain a normal blood sugar. Not even one glucose tab. He would recommend you take something smaller, such as a number of smarties which are 0.4 gram for a little tab.
Even more important, for many of us, aerobic exercise such as weightlifting or sprinting increases blood sugar. So I rarely have trouble going low and when I do undertake aerobic exercise and start to go low, I can sprint and offset the drop. In fact, Bernstein actually recommends that you undertake weightlifting or interval training as a preferred method of exercise.
ps. Glucose used to treat a low properly (to restore a normal blood sugar) has no effect on weight. Overtreating a low can lead to weight gain.

A bold and juicy red wine with red-berry fruit aromas and a touch of oak spice. Classic cabernet cassis and red-currant fruit flavours with silky tannins and long finish.
This wine has a lively bouquet of fruit reminiscent of pineapple and limes with a flinty touch. A refreshingly crisp Sauvignon Blanc.
Deep ruby red in the glass, it's bold and juicy with red-berry fruit flavours and a touch of sweet oak spice. Deliciously moreish.
This refreshing style of Chardonnay is made with a touch of oak for added complexity and richness. Melon, tropical fruit and citrus aromas, a rounded palate with butterscotch notes and prominent fruit flavours.
This Rosé from MAN Vintners has a bright cherry-pink colour with aromas of strawberries and tropical fruit. On the palate the wine is crisp and refreshing with red berry fruit flavours and a hint of sweetness.
Distinctive aromas of ripe plum and pepper spices, mouth-filling sweet red-berry flavours and gentle tannins characterize this wine. A touch of Viognier was co-fermented with the Shiraz for the aromatic lift it gives to the wine, which emphasises the berry fruit and spice aromas on the nose. The American oak barrels give a hint of vanilla spice and contribute to the smooth silky tannins.

Good news for your email inbox: You'll be seeing less spam in it now, thanks to a global takedown effort that knocked one of the world's biggest spammers offline this week.
"About 50 percent of the worldwide spam is gone," says FireEye senior scientist Atif Mushtaq, who participated in the demolition.
The dramatic decrease is the result of a coordinated attack by security firms and Internet service providers around the globe that took down a network of infected computers known as "the Grum botnet." Grum, one of the world's most prolific spammers, generated around 18 billion emails a day, by FireEye's estimates.
A botnet is a collective of computers infected with malware -- typically without the computer owner's knowledge -- and taken over by an outside attacker. Criminals who gain control of botnets use them for malicious activities like pumping out massive volumes of spam or launching denial-of-service attacks on targeted websites. The bigger the botnet, the more firepower the cybercrimal has at their fingertips.
Grum was an especially vast and nasty spammer. First detected in early 2008, its malware infected several hundred thousand computers around the world and churned out huge amounts of pharmaceutical spam advertising cheap drugs.
At its peak, Grum was the world's most prolific spam machine, though researchers recently dropped it to the number three spot on their ever-changing list of the world's largest botnets.
The tale of its demise reads like a high-tech thriller.
The brain of a botnet is what's known as a "command and control" server. Grum had several of those servers scattered around the globe in countries including Russia, Panama, and the Netherlands. But it also had a fatal weakness: The network had no recovery mechanism if all of its command servers were simultaneously knocked offline.
A Dutch Internet service provider yanked the plug Tuesday on two of Grum's primary command servers. A Panamanian server went down next, leaving just one main server -- in Russia -- coordinating the entire Grum swarm.
But when the botnet's operators realized their network was under attack, they launched their evasive actions, shifting their traffic to a fresh set of backup servers in Ukraine.

UPDATED: Tornado Touches Down in Mendota Heights (Photos)
A Mendota Heights resident living near Pickerel Lake said Saturday evening's storm "sounded like an airplane flying through our backyard."
Updated Nov. 14, 10 a.m.: The National Weather Service has confirmed that a tornado touched down in northern Mendota Heights Saturday.
The tornado had a path length of about a half mile and landed near Lilydale, between Wachlter and Butler Ave, paralleling Highway 13.
On Saturday evening Leighton and Dianne Siegel were asleep in their home on the 700 block of Woodridge Drive, by Pickerel Lake, when they were awoken by the thunderstorm that spawned two confirmed tornadoes in Burnsville and Eagan.
Leighton Siegel said there was no doubt in his mind that a tornado swept through Mendota Heights.
"We were woken up about 11 o'clock, and it sounded like an airplane flying through our backyard," Siegel said. "I don't think it could be anything else [but a tornado] because it sounded very localized."
The National Weather Service's report on the storm shows an area of "sporadic tree/powerline damage" near Interstate 494 and Highway 13, but does not confirm any tornades touching down within the boundaries of Mendota Heights.
"The damage that occurred in Mendota Heights, Lilydale, and portions of West St. Paul were related to 75 mph straight line winds," according to the NWS report.
On Sunday morning the Siegels drove around their neighborhood and found that wind and fallen trees—multiple evergreens and one willow—had damaged "10 or 12 houses" and taken out powerlines. (Thousands of Xcel Energy customers lost power in the storm.)
Leighton Siegel, a retired otolaryngologist and amateur photographer, said his home was unharmed.
We "are now beginning to realize how lucky we were to have just been missed by the wind storm," he said. "The damage of this storm somehow passed right next to our home."
More photos of the damage from the storm are available at Siegel's website.

We live in West Saint Paul, just to the east of Sibley High School, and we heard the same thing! Thought it was a really loud plane at first, and then the sound kept building! It sure wasn't a plane.

We're in Mendota Heights off of Victoria (up the hill from Hwy 13). Sounded like a loud explosion with a burst of lightening and 5 minutes of intense wind/rain. Crazy weird...

It sounds like it was likely a "straight-line wind." It's a pretty interesting weather phenomenon. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Derecho

PC Pricer
The PC Pricer is a tool used to estimate Medicare PPS payments. The final payment may not be precise to how payments are determined in the Medicare claims processing system due to the fact that some data is factored in the PC Pricer payment amount that is paid by Medicare via provider cost reports. In addition, variance between actual Medicare payment and a PC Pricer estimate may exist due to a 3-month lag in quarterly updates to provider data. In such situations, the PC Pricer offer flexibility by allowing users to modify provider data to reflect different values. Users are encouraged to refer to the User Manual for the applicable Pricer to access downloading and data entry instructions.
Delay in 2013 PC Pricers for Claims Effective October 1, 2012 and/or January 1, 2013:
Please be advised that CMS anticipates delays for all of the FY 2013 PC Pricer releases (LTCH, SNF and ESRD). CMS is in the process of transitioning to new software products to support the back-end development of all of the PC Pricers. This transition is expected to increase the initial development time. Executable files will be made available once the transition is complete, sometime between May 15 and June 30, 2013.
System Requirements:
The PRICERs can be installed in a Windows environment. You will need an IBM PC or clone with a hard disk drive for Microsoft Windows Version 95 or greater with at least 8MB RAM. Both monochrome and color monitors are supported. A printer is essential to produce the report that displays the PRICER results. Finally, the PRICERS can run in a network environment.
Release Schedule:
For each new release of the PRICERS, the Provider Specific File will contain all quarterly updates. Each new release will replace any previous release.
For a given fiscal year, the PRICER release schedule is as follows:
- First Quarterly Release — On or about October 15
- Second Quarterly Release — On or about January 15
- Third Quarterly Release — On or about April 15
- Fourth Quarterly Release — On or about July 15
