This chandelier is gorgeous! A few tips for assembling it. First, get an over-the-door clothes hanger and use the security wire and hang the chandelier on it before assembling. Second, attach the arms but do not fully tighten them until you thread the crystals. It helps to move the arms around. Third, start from the inside to the outside to thread the crystals. Fourth, hang the chandelier, then tighten the arms--be careful not to strip the screws...just tighten enough to catch, then attach the base. The chandelier is heavy, so it's almost impossible to assemble and thread the crystals if it is laying down on something instead of hanging. The crystals will break off from the weight. Thought I would pass on these tips for an easier installation. It is really, really gorgeous. You will love the end result.
Just wanted to give the people that are comparing this chandelier to an almost identical one at a high end store a tip. I read all the reviews and didn't want to deal with all the crystal assembly needed for this product so instead ponied up the money at the other store. To my dismay...that one needed 2hrs of assembly too. It's just that those crystals screwed in...but there were still a lot & I broke 5 in the process. So just saying, don't let the time you have to put into it effect your decision, as I learned...there is no getting out of it it.
Love, love that Overstock had this chandelier...it is almost identical to the one in the national, much higher priced store/catalog. Assembly was NOT fun but well worth it as all others mentioned. I also spray painted the candle covers...the color was not so nice. Sets off my rustic table and chairs just like the pix in that catalog we all love to look at but can't always afford. THanks Overstock!!! Be ready though...you may need help assembling...you have to completely put the thing together...including some wiring...not just the crystals...and the directions for them is so small, you can't see it...have a set of wrenches and pliers and wire strippers ready for the delivery day.
I saw a similar light in a large chain store's catalogue and could not justify the price with my limited income. It was so exciting to find this on Overstock.com. In redoing my dining room, I wanted something "out of the normal". This is the perfect light fixture for my room because it adds a touch of bling and nature with the shape of the crystals. I added a dimmer switch and the effect is perfect. The diagram shows that the arms are to be attached once the chandelier is hung and then add the crystals. I added the crystals prior to the installation and highly recommend doing the attachment prior to hanging the light. A good pair of needle nose pliers is essential!!! A few of the holes were not completely punched but a sharp nail did the trick in popping out the excess metal. My fingers are a little sore from trying to align the pins with the two holes and the crystal but it is worth the temporary pain when you see the fixture completed. The plastic candle covers were a bit too gold...they look like the picture...but were too gold for the latte colored walls in my dining room. A quick application of cream paint to match the ceiling was the answer. I am so impressed with this light that I am ordering the 3-light fixture in the same style for the foyer. The light was securely packed, all parts were included, there was no breakage, and was shipped right away. I highly recommend this fixture for the WOW factor to your room or entry.
We are building a new home and put this in our living room. It is beautiful and complements almost any style. It is almost identical to one for twice the price at another national retailer, maybe a tad bit smaller. One thing to note is that although another review mentioned the cord being white, they must have fixed that because mine matches perfectly! I wish it was a tad bit larger, but overall it's a great light and you can't beat the price!
I haven't assembled it yet because the color does not match the picture or the description! The chandelier is not bronze. It's more of a cooler tone of brown. Customer service indicated that the color has been a common complaint on this piece so it's not just mine. I might return it because I was looking for something bronze.
This chandelier is gorgeous! It�s not a very easy task to assemble it. I got a few tips for assembling this product from the reviews I have read. It really helped. I love this new addition of light in my house.
light took a while to assemble all the crystals but it was equally beautiful as the website pictures
First, I loved the photo of this chandelier. That's about all I loved, however. When the package arrived (everything very well packaged) on time, and I opened it, I laughed out loud to see how disassembled this product is. I mean, I may as well be a factory worker on the assembly line learning how to put dozens of little tiny pins into dozen of holes in dozens of crystals and then attach each to dozens of stems that then get attached to the shaft, which by the way is rather chintzy looking. I am returning this to Overstock as soon as possible and trying to buy an assembled or half assembled chandelier instead. Good luck! It's not worth the trouble.
This is gorgeous once its all put together. It comes minimally assembled (they started the wiring), but for the most part you put it together yourself, which isn't a bad thing. The most time consuming part, is the placement of all the crystals. I did it in 4 hours, and I worked steady at it, but at a comfortable pace. Once you see what it looks like all put together you will be so pleased with how stunning it is, and your work will be worth it! It really is so pretty! Like many other reviewers, I saw this very similar chandelier at Pottery barn (and I LOVE pottery barn!), but when I saw how close theirs was to this one offered on Overstock, I couldn't justify spending an additional $300 for essentially the same thing. I am glad I made that decision. I had about 5 of the crystals I noticed that were broken on arrival. I emailed the address provided and received a response within two hours! They indicated that they would ship out some more crystals and then email me with the shipping (tracking #) info when it was ready. They stuck with their word to the T! Two days later I got the tracking/shipping info and was notified it was sent express. I still had plenty of crystals to assemble my chandelier (actually even had 16 left, not including the broken ones). That was great speedy customer service from Overstock, and I surely appreciated it! I am extremely happy with this purchase. It's beautiful, the price was great, and I look forward to many years of showcasing it in the entrance of my home.

According to a new survey by the Spectrem Group, "68% of millionaires (those with investments of $1 million or more) support raising taxes on those with $1 million or more in income. Fully 61% of those with net worths of $5 million or more support the tax on million-plus earners." Spectrem's George Walper told the Wall Street Journal, "what this tells us is that there are a number of wealthy folks who said: 'Gee, we need to increase taxes to stimulate the economy. No one likes to be taxed more, but the reality is maybe it has to be done.'"

With the 2013 pollen and mold reporting season coming to an end, we look back at this year and see how it compares to 2012 and previous years.
With weather dictating the start and stop dates and with a milder spring the past 2 years, reporting began as early as the first week in March.
Tree pollen was the first to be counted and surprisingly we had the exact number of high reporting days both years, though 2012 had one very high alert in March that year.
Grass pollen followed as early as March in 2012 and April in 2013 with 30% more high readings in 2013. Though the season peaked in May both years, we still saw an occasional corn grass pollen into late September.
Weeds peaked in the late Spring both years, but 2013 saw 25% more high readings, with Ragweed having twice as many as the year before.
The past two years had several very high alert mold counts, and over 50% more high counts than 2011. Both years had record breaking days with the highest counts since we began keeping record in 2000 - over 125,000 mold spores per cubic meter!

|James K. Hosmer Special Collections Library
George E. Leach graduated from Central High School in 1894. In 1903, he married Ella Van Vorous. They were divorced in 1922. He married Anita Churcher in 1923. Leach joined the National Guard in ca. 1905 and remained in service until the 1940's. He served in the First Minnesota Field Artillery, Battery B in the early years. In 1916 his outfit was called to mobilize to protect the southern border of Texas from further attacks from Mexico's Frachisco (Pancho) Villa's attacks on New Mexico. In 1918, he was sent to France to fight in World War I. At the war's end he had risen to the rank of Colonel. Upon returning from the war a decorated war veteran, he continued with the National Guard but also became involved in Minneapolis politics. In 1921, he was elected mayor of the city. He served as Mayor of Minneapolis from 1921-1929 and from 1937-1941. Some of the issues he worked for as mayor were to construct the Minneapolis Auditorium, to reduce taxes on small houses, to promote Minneapolis as a recreational and convention city, and the purchase of the Wold Chamberlain Airfield.
Anita Willard Churcher married George E. Leach, January 22, 1923. Churcher was from LaJolla, California and a neighbor of Marry Hammond Leach (George's mother). Churcher taught athletics and dance at Principia College of St. Louis, was a fencing expert and a member of the Zlac Rowing Club prior to World War 1. During the war, she served in the YMCA and was in charge of the amusement area for the service men in Monte Dore Les Baines, France. She also worked at the Pershing Stadium outside of Paris and was with the Army of Occupation at Neuenahr, Germany. When married and settled in Minneapolis, was active in the Women's Overseas Service League of Minneapolis and the Minneapolis Women's Winter Club. She was an active member of the Minneapolis Community, giving numerous talks to various groups.

History > Professional baseball > League formation
In 1881 the American Association was formed with teams from cities that were not members of the National League and teams that had been expelled from the league (such as Cincinnati, which was disciplined in 1880 for playing games on Sunday and allowing liquor on the grounds). In 1890, after the National League tried to limit salaries (a $2,000 maximum for pitchers), the players formed the Players' League, but it quickly failed. The American Association unsuccessfully challenged the National League and late in 1891 merged with it in a 12-team league that constituted a monopoly, an arrangement that prevailed through 1899. By 1900 the National League had shrunk to eight teamsBoston (the team that would eventually become the Braves), Brooklyn (soon to be the Dodgers), Chicago (soon to be the Cubs), Cincinnati (the Reds, who had returned to the league in 1890), New York City (the Giants), Philadelphia (the Phillies), Pittsburgh (the Pirates), and St. Louis (the Cardinals)and it remained so constituted until 1953, when the Boston Braves moved to Milwaukee, Wisconsin.
The Western League, organized in 1893, had Midwestern members. When in 1900 Charles Comiskey moved his St. Paul (Minnesota) team to Chicago as the White Sox and the Grand Rapids (Michigan) team was shifted to Cleveland as the Indians, the National League agreed to the moves. However, when permission was asked to put teams in Baltimore (Maryland) and Washington, D.C., the National League balked, and the baseball war was on. The Western League, renamed the American League and officially elevated to major league status in 1901, transferred teams from Indianapolis (Indiana), Kansas City (Missouri), Minneapolis, and Buffalo (New York) to Baltimore (the first of two American League teams to be called the Baltimore Orioles), Washington, D.C. (the Senators), Philadelphia (the Athletics), and Boston (the Red Stockings). American League teams also were established in Detroit, Michigan (the Tigers), and Milwaukee (the first of two teams to be named the Milwaukee Brewers), the latter club moving to St. Louis as the Browns in 1902. When the Baltimore club moved to New York City in 1903 to become the Highlanders (after 1912, the Yankees), the league took the form it was to keep until 1954, when the St. Louis Browns became the Baltimore Orioles.
During the war, the American League wooed away many of the National League's star players. In 1903 the leagues agreed to prohibit single ownership of two clubs in the same city and the shifting of franchises from one city to another by either league without permission of the other. They also established rules for transferring players from one league to the other and for moving minor league players into the major leagues. The peace of 1903 resulted in the first World Series, which, after a hiatus in 1904 (the New York Giants refused to play, believing the opposition unworthy), was held each year thereafter (with the exception of 1994, when a work stoppage led to the cancellation of the World Series), the winner being the team to win four games out of seven (five out of nine from 1919 to 1921). In the period following the war, the two leagues enjoyed a long period of growth. The inside game dominated the next two decades, until hitter-friendly rules were instituted in 1920, ushering in the live-ball era (the period of inside-game dominance was also known as the dead-ball era). The inside game was a style of play that emphasized pitching, speed, and batsmanship. Bunting was very common, and doubles and triples were more heralded than home runs (which during this era were almost exclusively of the inside-the-park variety). Two managers were credited as the masters of the inside game and brought success to their respective teams: John J. McGraw, manager of the National League New York Giants (190232), and Connie Mack, manager of the American League Philadelphia Athletics (190150).

Google Nexus D is a curved concept with a kickstand
This slick mockup of a possible future Google Nexus phone flaunts a curved screen and kickstand.
If you've got curves, flaunt 'em, we say. This slick mockup of a possible future Google Nexus phone flaunts its curved screen, as well as a kickstand and loads of other cool features.
The concave touchscreen helps the Nexus D concept nestle in the hypothetical hand, while the kickstand lets you set it down to enjoy high-definition movies and TV. The curved screen is edged by light-up piping to notify you of a new message.
The Nexus D is sadly only a fictional mockup from the imagination of one Dorian Lust. It's conceived as having a quad-core 1.8GHz processor and 1.5GB of RAM with 32 or 64GB of storage.
It's shock-resistant so you don't have to panic should it tumble from your pocket as you have a little jump about. It's also a universal remote to control your telly and hi-fi, and has a laser pointer in case you're doing presentations or pretending you're a deadly sniper.
Built-in NFC lets you pay for things with an airy wave of your phone, or change a bunch of settings in one go by tapping the phone on a pre-programmed NFC tag .
Security comes from a fingerprint scanner or a cornea scan that recognises your eye -- watch out for Wesley Snipes holding a pen, obviously. One idea that we like is the option for the accelerometer to unlock the phone by waving the phone in a specific motion.
It also has back and front radar detection, whatever that is. A variant for farmers features reinforced corners for extra protection and agrarian extras including a moisture meter for checking hay and grain and other farm-type things.
Other cool concepts that have tickled our fictional phone fancy include this transparent iPhone and there iPad concept designs . What do you think of the Nexus D design? Tell me your thoughts in the comments or on our Facebook page.

The Letters of T. S. Eliot Volume 2: 1923-1925
Valerie Eliot and Hugh Haughton
Volume One of the Letters of T. S. Eliot, edited by Valerie Eliot in 1988, covered the period from Eliot's childhood in St Louis, Missouri, to the end of 1922, by which time he had settled in England, married, and published The Waste Land. Volume Two covers the early years of his editorship of The Criterion (the periodical that Eliot launched with Lady Rothermere's backing in 1922), publication of The Hollow Men and the course of Eliot's thinking about poetry and poetics after The Waste Land.
The correspondence charts Eliot's intellectual journey towards conversion to the Anglican faith in 1927, as well as his transformation from banker to publisher, ending with his appointment as a director of the new publishing house of Faber & Gwyer, in late 1925, and the appearance of Poems 1909-1925, Eliot's first publication with the house with which he would be associated for the rest of his life.
It was partly because of Eliot's profoundly influential work as cultural commentator and editor that the correspondence is so prolific and so various, and Volume Two of the Letters fully demonstrates the emerging continuities between poet, essayist, editor and letter-writer.
Volume Two (1922–25) is published simultaneously with the revised edition of Volume One (1898-1922) of The Letters of T. S. Eliot.

Perhaps it was her father's Top Ramen Surprise that compelled Marjorie Meek-Bradley to become a chef. Dad's creation--a stir-fry made with noodles, leftover meat and vegetables, an egg, and the contents of the ramen-seasoning packet--is one of the Graffiato chef de cuisine's favorite food memories.
Born and raised in Ukiah, California, Meek-Bradley has lived in New York, Sweden and Napa, and now calls Washington, D.C.'s Capitol Hill neighborhood home. At Graffiato, she works with longtime friend (and former Top Chef hopeful) Mike Isabella, whom she met when they were both cooking at Marcus Samuelsson's Washington Square restaurant in Philadelphia.
Meek-Bradley's early formal culinary training was in baking and pastry, a foundation that has served her well. Graffiato has no pastry chef, so it's Meek-Bradley's job to create the dessert recipes in addition to the savory dishes. For Sous Chef Series, she made a sponge cake topped with roasted peaches, the ultimate summer dessert.
Gallery Tour
Meek-Bradley spends much of her time off at the Smithsonian museums, exploring the various collections, including visits to Julia Child's kitchen (which is temporarily closed while that wing of the museum undergoes renovation).
Egg Advice
Meek-Bradley advises baking with room-temperature eggs, particularly when making desserts like sponge cakes, soufflés or meringues. Her reasoning: Not only are room-temperature eggs easier to separate, but they also beat up fluffier, and in less time.
When making her sponge cake, Meek-Bradley doesn't grease the pan, which could cause the cake batter to deflate. Batter clings to the walls of an ungreased pan, climbing higher, ultimately resulting in a fluffy, airy cake. But for beginning bakers, using a nonstick cake pan (or lightly greasing it, as we recommend in the recipe) provides extra insurance against sticking.
One 9-inch cake
Unsalted butter, 3½ tablespoons at room temperature
Large egg yolks, 12
Large eggs, 4
Granulated sugar, 1½ cups
Cake flour, 1½ cups plus 1½ tablespoons
Ripe peaches, 3 (halved and pitted)
Dark brown sugar, ⅔ lightly packed cup
Water, ¼ cup
Mascarpone cheese, ¾ cup
Heavy cream, 1½ cups
Ground cardamom, 2¼ teaspoons
Two round or square 9-inch cake pans
Parchment paper
Chef's knife or a paring knife
Stand mixer fitted with the whisk attachment
Cake tester or toothpick
Small plate
Cake plate or a large rimless plate for the cake
Offset metal spatula or butter knife
1. Preheat the oven to 375°. Place a cake pan on top of a sheet of parchment paper and trace around its edge to make a parchment circle. Cut the circle out and set aside. Repeat so you have 2 paper circles. Lightly grease the cake pans with
- 2 tablespoons butter (1 tablespoon per pan)
Fit 1 parchment circle into each cake pan, then turn the paper over so the greased side faces up. Set the pans aside.
2. In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the whisk attachment, place the
- Egg yolks
- Whole eggs
Beat on medium, and in a slow and steady stream, add
- ¾ cup granulated sugar
Increase mixer speed to high, and whip until the eggs are thick and pale, 2 to 3 minutes. Remove the bowl from the stand and place on your work surface. To a fine-mesh sieve, add
- 1½ cups cake flour
Use the whisk to fold it into the egg mixture until no dry streaks remain. Scrape the batter into the 2 prepared cake pans using the rubber spatula and smooth out the top so the batter is even. Bake until golden and the cake tester or toothpick inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean, about 20 minutes. Remove the cake from the oven using oven mitts and set aside to cool for 10 minutes before turning the cake onto a wire cooling rack to cool completely.
3. On the small plate, place the remaining
- 1½ tablespoons flour
Into the flour, dip the cut side of each
- Peach
Set the peaches on a plate, floured side up. Heat the large skillet over medium-high heat for 2 minutes. Add the
- Dark brown sugar
- Water
Stir occasionally with the wooden spoon, and once the sugar is dissolved, stir in the remaining
- 1½ tablespoons butter
Place the peaches in the pan floured side down and cook until the sauce begins to thicken and pool around the peaches, about 5 minutes. Use the metal spatula to turn the peaches over and cook the other side until the bubbles around the peaches begin to burst and the syrupy mixture smells toasty, about 5 minutes longer. Transfer the peaches back to the plate and set aside to cool, then cut each half into 5 slices. Set the syrup aside for finishing the cake.
4. Make the frosting: In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the whisk attachment, place the
- Mascarpone cheese
Beat on medium speed, and in a slow, steady stream, add the
- Heavy cream
Once the cream is incorporated, add the
- Remaining ¾ cup granulated sugar
- Ground cardamom
Increase the mixer speed to high and beat until the mixture forms medium-stiff peaks, about 3 to 5 minutes.
5. Place 1 cake layer on a cake plate. Arrange the peaches evenly over the cake, then set the second cake layer on top of the peaches. Use the offset metal spatula or butter knife to frost the top and sides of the cake with the mascarpone frosting. Drizzle with the reserved peach syrup and refrigerate until serving.

A word about "FPS"
What are we looking for in gaming performance wise? First off, obviously Guru3D tends to think that all games should be played at the best image quality (IQ) possible. There's a dilemma though, IQ often interferes with the performance of a graphics card. We measure this in FPS, the number of frames a graphics card can render per second, the higher it is the more fluently your game will display itself.
A game's frames per second (FPS) is a measured average of a series of tests. That test often is a time demo, a recorded part of the game which is a 1:1 representation of the actual game and its gameplay experience. After forcing the same image quality settings; this time-demo is then used for all graphics cards so that the actual measuring is as objective as can be.
|Frames per second
|very limited gameplay
|average yet very playable
|good gameplay
|best possible gameplay
- So if a graphics card barely manages less than 30 FPS, then the game is not very playable, we want to avoid that at all cost.
- With 30 FPS up-to roughly 40 FPS you'll be very able to play the game with perhaps a tiny stutter at certain graphically intensive parts. Overall a very enjoyable experience. Match the best possible resolution to this result and you'll have the best possible rendering quality versus resolution, hey you want both of them to be as high as possible.
- When a graphics card is doing 60 FPS on average or higher then you can rest assured that the game will likely play extremely smoothly at every point in the game, turn on every possible in-game IQ setting.
- Over 100 FPS? You have either a MONSTER of graphics card or a very old game.

In his watercolour and pen work, artist Alred Steiner becomes a sick and twisted surgeon, turning all manner of body parts, animals and objects - such as penises, space craft, turds, strawberries and camels - into beautiful but rather disturbing renderings of memorable and famous cartoon characters such as Maggie Simpson, Yosemite Sam, Mickey Mouse, and Kenny McCormick. By blending vaginas and other parts of the body into the mix, Steiner forces us to accept the things that popular culture often hides and tries to forget about.

As winter storm "Nemo" threatens to snow in a large swath of the U.S., we're making sure we're ready for whatever this weather brings. If you or a loved one is bracing for the storm, take heed of the following reminders for pet parents.
• Bring your animals indoors! A snowstorm is no place for a pet. Store up lots of stuff to do for your pets who are used to more outside time.
• Stock up ahead of time on all pet food and medicine your animals may need over the weekend—travel may be much more difficult or impossible in the event of a blizzard.
• Prepare for a power outage, especially if your family includes fish, reptiles or pocket pets.
• Have a coat and booties ready for any dog who needs them. Be ready to protect your pets from very strong wind and cold.
• Make sure your pets wear identification at all times (even better: have them microchipped as well) to dramatically increase your chances of reunification should one become lost.
• Keep your dog on a leash after heavy snowfall. Dogs are much more likely to get lost during winter, especially during and after a blizzard.
• Watch out for ice melts! Snow-melting salt can be very painful to dogs' feet and can make pups ill if ingested, so make sure to clean off your dog's paws with a moist washcloth after a walk.
For more ASPCA disaster tips, visit our disaster preparedness page, and please stay safe this weekend.
Valentine's Day is just days away—and we'd be lying if we said we weren't planning to spend at least part of it with the furry loves of our lives. If you're looking for an excuse to spend some time with your pets on February 14, here are a few ways you can put some four-legged fun into the holiday:
• Take a romantic stroll. Getting active with your pets is a great way to strengthen your bond. Healthy adult dogs, for example, need at least 30 minutes of aerobic exercise twice a day, so show your pet how much you love her by taking her on a jaunt through the park at sunset.
• Enjoy some savory treats together. While chocolates and other traditional Valentine's Day treats are dangerous for pets, why not make Fido some delicious homemade treats he can enjoy? Check out our recipes for cookies for cats and peanut butter and pumpkin treats for dogs.
• Give your pet a special grooming session. Clean pets are happy pets! Show your cat or dog some extra TLC this Valentine's Day with a good brushing or a nice bath. Check out these grooming tips from our ASPCA experts.
• Shower your pet with gifts. Show your pal some love with heart-themed fashion collars and collar charms from the ASPCA Online Store. While you're at it, treat yourself to something sparkly or stylish that will show the world how much you care about animals.
For a complete list of Valentine's Day pet safety tips, visit our Pet Care section.
And if you've got other plans to give your pets a little Valentine's love, tell us about it in the comments!
At the ASPCA, we see many feline victims of High Rise Syndrome each year, but perhaps none so lucky as three-year-old Pereque, who miraculously survived a fall from a five-story apartment building window right onto a spiked fence.
After his fall, Pereque's pet parent rushed him to the ASPCA Animal Hospital, where he underwent surgery with ASPCA Director of Surgery Dr. J'mai Gayle that same day.
Pereque sustained only non-life threatening injuries—in fact, he didn't even have a broken bone! Fortunately for Pereque, the spikes on the fence just missed his femoral artery, and all of his major organs were unharmed.
ASPCA Veterinarian Dr. Laura Niestat also treated Pereque during his stay at AAH and released him to his pet parent three days later.
"I believe he ultimately did quite well," Dr. Gayle says.
We're so glad we were able to treat this resilient kitty when he needed us most!

Happy new year from all of us here at the ASPCA! As you set your resolutions for 2013, don't forget to consider ways to improve your pet's wellbeing, too. Providing a little bit of extra grooming or playtime for your pet can go a long way. We suggest you start by making a few simple resolutions that will keep your furry friends healthy and happy from January to December.
Here are some easy ways to get started:
Exercise time! Before you rush to join a gym, consider ways to incorporate your pet into your new workout routine. Healthy adult dogs need at least 30 minutes of aerobic exercise twice a day—jogging, swimming and playing at the dog park are all great options. Engage your cat with rousing play sessions of chase and fetch with furry toys, small balls or toy mice.
Battle the bulge. Humans aren't the only ones who might need to cut back on excess food after the holidays. This year, vow to lay off those table scraps and consider switching your cat or dog to a well-balanced, high-quality pet food.
Schedule a check-up. Give your veterinarian the chance to notice any developing illnesses by scheduling regular check-ups for your pet. If it's been a year or more since your pet has seen a vet, make an appointment today!
IDs, please! Get an updated look by outfitting all of your animal companions—even indoor pets—with an ID tag. Implanted microchips are also a smart option.
Want to make a resolution to help homeless animals in 2013? Consider becoming an ASPCA Guardian. For just a few cents a day, you can make a big impact for animals.
After weeks of gift shopping, cookie baking and house decorating, it's finally time to celebrate! From all of us here at the ASPCA, we'd like to send warm holiday wishes to you and your pets.
As you're making your last-minute holiday to-do list and checking it twice, please don't forget to consider your pets' safety in the hustle and bustle of the season.
Keep these potential hazards in mind when getting your home ready for holiday gatherings:
Mind the greenery. Christmas trees, holly and mistletoe present various dangers to your pets. Make sure your Christmas tree is securely anchored so it doesn't tip, fall and injure your pet. This will also prevent the tree water—which may contain fertilizers that can cause stomach upset—from spilling. Holly and mistletoe can also cause illnesses in pets if ingested.
Hide the leftovers. Fatty, spicy and no-no human foods, as well as bones, should not be fed to your furry friends.
Be careful with your cocktails. Don't leave alcoholic beverages unattended where your pets might try to drink them—alcohol can cause serious illness in pets.
Use candles and lights with care. Pets may burn themselves or cause a fire if they knock candles over. Be sure to use appropriate candle holders, placed on a stable surface. Also, when decorating with electric or battery-powered lights, consider that wire can deliver a potentially lethal electrical shock and a punctured battery can cause burns to your pet's mouth and esophagus.
As your pets celebrate the holidays with your family this year, try to keep their routines as close to normal as possible. If you plan to have guests in your home, it's a good idea to keep your pets in a quiet, calm room with plenty of water and places to snuggle.
For more holiday safety tips for your pets, please check out this full list by our ASPCA experts.
It's almost 2013! Don't forget to donate to the ASPCA before January 1 to get a 2012 tax break.

In spite of the recent tragedy in Newtown, CT, it was back to school Monday for thousands of students in Middle Tennessee, and in districts throughout the area, safety was top on the mind for parents and administrators.
Dr. Jesse Register, director of Metro Nashville Public Schools, spoke candidly about school security.
Register told the story of a 15-year-old student who last year brought a gun to school. Even though it pales in comparison to what happened in Connecticut, it proves the issue matters deeply here at home.
"We have to look at the social, emotional development of children in our schools," Register said.
Parents like Adriane Gordon were still trying to process what happened states away as they found a way to send their children to school Monday.
"She was sad for the families. But she said, 'Mom, I'm going to be OK. I'm going to be OK.' So we said an extra prayer," Gordon said. "I was a little nervous about dropping her off, so I let her ride the school bus, where there would be adults there."
Register reaffirmed Metro's policies Monday, but he also admitted there could be room for growth and lessons to learn from Newtown.
"I want you to know that I think our schools are safe," he said. "We're doing a lot to promote safety. Is it enough? The answer is no. We've got to ask some hard questions in this community about how we deal with our young people and what our young people are exposed to."
"People are going to be worrying about their children for a long, long time because of what happened there. So if there are ways that we can make our children safer, we ought to be doing it," said Mayor Karl Dean.
All of that seems like a consolation for parents like Gordon, trying to make sense of a tragedy for both herself and her daughter.
"That's one of a mother's most horrible nightmares, to send your child to school and your child doesn't come home from school," Gordon said.
Fortunately, it appears the school shooting in Connecticut did not impact attendance figures in districts across Middle Tennessee.
In Williamson County, school leaders met with police to discuss their security plans, and the police department promised to increase presence near the county's schools.
That issue will also be up for discussion at Monday's board of education meeting.

Research training is provided throughout the residency. Three months during PGY-3 are dedicated to protected research time. In addition, one to three months of additional protected research time is available during the PGY-4 year. The research rotations are monitored by the Resident Research Committee, which is chaired by the department Director of Research, Dianne Durham, PhD. Generally, data collection is completed during the three month rotation; while data analysis, preparation of presentations, and completion of manuscripts is all done subsequently. Research is performed in the departmental Auditory and Vestibular Neuroscience (AVN) Laboratory under the supervision of Dr. Durham or Dr. Hinrich Staecker. Other research opportunities are also available throughout the Medical Center. During residency, all OTOHNS residents are required to publish a minimum of one manuscript in a peer-reviewed journal.
The AVN laboratory is located in the new, state-of-the-art, Kansas Life Sciences Innovation Center (KLSIC). This laboratory was originally established by Dr. Durham to investigate biochemical and anatomical changes in central auditory neurons following manipulation of peripheral auditory input, but has expanded to include central mechanisms of tinnitus, avian and mammalian hair cell regeneration, and the use of viral vectors to promote restoration of vestibular function. The OTOHNS Department employs lab technicians to oversee the day-to-day operation of the lab, and they are available to train residents in histological and molecular techniques. The laboratory is fully equipped for physiology and houses two soundproof booths, equipment for controlled noise exposure to laboratory animals, as well as equipment for measuring auditory evoked potentials and otoacoustic emissions.
Several institutional facilities supplement the department resources; including; a core laboratory for molecular biology, which contains equipment for RNA and DNA analysis, PCR, in situ hybridization, and gene chip microarray analysis. Additionally, there is a microscopy center with three new confocal microscopes, and an imaging center for preparation of digital posters and other graphics. The Mental Retardation Research Center has a fully equipped histology laboratory. The facility houses two transmissions and one scanning electron microscope and employs two technicians to manage the facility and prepare tissue samples. An AAALAC-approved animal facility located adjacent to KLSIC, provides veterinary support and housing for research animals, as well as common use procedure rooms for small animal surgery.
The Director of Clinical Research, Kevin Sykes, PhD, MPH, facilitates clinical research projects. Residents are encouraged to participate in prospective and retrospective projects in collaboration with OTOHNS faculty. Some retrospective projects are accomplished during clinical rotations and often involve chart reviews, case reports, etc. Research ideas should be presented to Mr. Sykes prior to study initiation for assistance with research design and Human Subjects Committee (HSC) submission. Following HSC approval, Mr. Sykes assists residents with subject recruitment and study coordination, as well as with database design, data analysis, presentation, and publication of research.
The success of resident and faculty research, in both clinical and basic science, is showcased at the department's annual Alumni Day Research Symposium, held every June. This daylong forum includes research and clinical presentations by third, fourth and fifth year residents. Attendees include clinical and research faculty, residents, alumni, community otolaryngologists, and a nationally renowned OTOHNS guest lecturer. Residents are encouraged to present their projects at a national meeting, such as the annual Academy of Otolaryngology-Head and Neck Surgery meeting or the Association for Research in Otolaryngology Mid-Winter meeting.

By Maritza Guzman: Director, Fiscal Sponsorship and Project Management
On October 10, 2012 the Supreme Court heard oral arguments in the Fisher v. University of Texas at Austin case; and while a decision could come at any time, it is not likely until spring or early summer 2013. Fisher challenges the use of race as one of several factors when promoting diversity in university admissions. It is the first case to reach the U.S. Supreme Court since the Court's 2003 decision in Grutter v. Bollinger, which upheld an admissions policy at the University of Michigan Law School and broadly affirmed the educational importance of diversity. The Fisher case is being watched nationwide as an important determinant of future inclusive admissions policies at public universities.
We live in a global economy that requires experience navigating diverse viewpoints and backgrounds. This critical skill best occurs in a setting with a diverse student body. Inclusive admissions policies are good for our nation and good for our economy. The University of Texas uses a fair process to look at factors, in addition to test scores, in order to expand opportunity and create a diverse learning environment that prepares students for the real world. Many students of color face extra obstacles to success not faced by others. When students do well despite these obstacles, the university should be able to give them the opportunity to succeed. Please visit here to learn more about why equal opportunity is good for our nation.
Public Interest Projects and its partners work towards a society that ensures justice, dignity, and opportunity for all people. For example, since 2004 the Fulfilling the Dream Fund has been devoted to promoting and protecting equal opportunity in our nation. Galvanized and anchored by then President of the Ford Foundation Susan V. Berresford, the Dream Fund was created in the wake of the Grutter v. Bollinger decision, and sprang from a belief in core American values – that everyone deserves a shot at achieving their potential.
Before it made final grants last year, the Fund supported a number of key efforts across the country that helped advance opportunity for all. This included research that informed the field, as they communicate why equal opportunity and policies that promote it are needed, fair and important to our nation. Many of the groups supported by the Dream Fund continue their work to advance and protect equal opportunity. To learn more about what's at stake in the Fisher v. University of Texas case see Civilrights.org Fisher v. Texas and NAACP Legal Defense and Educational Fund Fisher v. Texas.
We've made great strides toward equal opportunity in this country. Our President embodies possibility and potential for all children of color. They now know that they can dream of one day becoming President of the United States. But there are still entrenched inequities across our nation. All too often, a child's zip code dictates whether they attend a good school… or a substandard one. That child may have access to college placement courses…or none at all. Too often children of color face (and overcome) extraordinary barriers to a quality education. Those that apply to college are resilient and determined – precisely the qualities our society needs in future leaders and entrepreneurs. It is for these reasons that we must all continue a vigorous effort to make our nation's colleges and universities opportunities for learning for all young people. And we must work to ensure that a quality education is offered to all of our country's children long before they are old enough to even consider a college education.

Online Banking FAQ
What is StarNet Online Banking?
StarNet Online Banking is the convenient way NORTHSTAR BANK OF TEXAS provides access to your checking and savings accounts via the Internet. Think of it as having NORTHSTAR BANK available from your home, office, or remote site at the touch of a computer to conduct some of your routine banking --- and it is availalbe 24 hours a day, 7 days a week!
What Can I Do?
You can access your accounts to view balances and your previous and current day transactions. You can transfer money between accounts, pay individuals, set up alerts, pay bills, see check images, retrieve your e-Statements, etc.
What About Privacy and Security?
StarNet has many protections in place to assure you of your privacy and security. State-of-the-art security has been incorporated into our Online Banking offering at several levels in order to ensure both privacy and security. You will access the system by using multi-factor authentication. Whether it is a balance inquiry or funds being transferred, transactions will take place in a computer environment employing very sophisticated security measures.
What Type of Special Equipment Will I Need?
All you will need is a computer that is connected to the Internet. StarNet supports both PC and Mac computers. If using a Mac, you must access Online Banking through Internet Explorer to be 100% compatible. A printer is optional.
How Can I Get Started?
If you have a Personal checking account with us and want to enjoy the convenience of banking from your personal computer, please enroll in Online Banking via our website. Business customers please contact Treasury Management Support at (940) 383.6200 - option 2 to enroll in our Business Online Banking.
Does StarNet Work With Quicken; and Microsoft Money;?
Yes. Information can also be downloaded to spreadsheets such as Microsoft Excel; as well as other financial management software.
Can I Access My Accounts From More Than One Location?
Yes. You can access your accounts from anywhere, with the exception of certain blocked countries, as long as you have Internet accessibility. Our multi-factor authentication security feature may require you to authorize a computer the first time you use it to access StarNet.
How Does Multi-Factor Authentication Help Secure My Online Transactions?
Multi-factor authentication (MFA) requires that you log on with "something you have" such as a one time password generator or a cookie, and "something you know" such as a username and password. Our Personal banking product uses a cookie placed on your computer during sign-up that marks your computer as authorized to access StarNet. Some of our Business banking products do require the use of a one-time password generator. If you need assistance with MFA, please call our customer service line at (940) 383.6200, Option 1, or send a secure message through our Contact Us form.
What Protection Do I Have Regarding Passwords?
You are in control of your password and can change it at anytime. Initially, the system will give you a temporary password that MUST be changed when you access Online Banking the first time. This will provide the security and reassurance that no one, not even bank personnel, will know your password.
Can I Transfer Funds Between Accounts?
Yes. You can also set up a transfer to happen in the future in case you won't be able to access Online Banking on the day you want to make the transfer. If funds are not available in the account at the time the transfer takes place, the transfer will not be completed.
Can I Pay My Bills Online?
Yes. Along with paying your bills online, you can sign up for e-Bills. You can also set up reoccurring payments and schedule and view payments all from the same screen. You must enroll in Online Banking before you can take advantage of the bill payment service. Business customers, please contact Treasury Management Support at 940-383-6200, option 2, or email email@example.com to request access to Bill Payment.
Can I Transfer Funds to Another Bank or Individual?
Yes. You can transfer funds to accounts you may have at other banks via our Account-to-Account transfer feature located within the Bill Payment service. You can also pay people or request money by using our Popmoney® feature also located within the Bill Payment service. Note: This feature is for Personal Banking customers only.
Who Do I Contact for Help or Questions on Any of the Online Banking Functions?

Manchester Mayor Gatsas revives newsletter for city employees
The mayor's office last week published the inaugural edition of the newsletter, which was posted online and was sent out to hundreds of city employees.
The cost of printing the publication was covered by Members First Credit Union.
Gatsas had requested that the aldermen's Committee on Community Improvement create a special account to accept the funds. On Monday, the committee approved the request without discussion.
The goal is to "improve communication between city departments," Gatsas said, adding the newsletter was being produced "at no cost to taxpayers."
The city has apparently not published a newsletter in a number of years, and the mayor's initiative comes at the start of an election year in which Gatsas already faces one opponent, Alderman Patrick Arnold.
"I'm not surprised Mayor Gatsas is trying to rehabilitate his image with city employees," Arnold said in an email. "His 'my way or the highway' approach has alienated a lot of people who sincerely care about the direction of our city, and he certainly has a lot of ground to make up with them."
The newsletter does not have a name yet. Readers are invited to propose their own ideas.
"While my office has batted around a couple of names nothing has jumped off the page. So we decided that it should be you, the city employees, that name this newsletter," Gatsas writes in his "Message from the Mayor" column on the front page.
In addition to the mayor's column, the newsletter features a story about the new municipal complex - "Municipal Complex is Open for Business" - and a question-and-answer interview with the city's new fleet management director, Wes Anderson.
There's also an ad for Members First Credit Union, along with a thank-you message for underwriting the printing cost.
Production of the newsletter is being overseen by Samantha Piatt, the mayor's chief of staff.
It appears a city newsletter was last published several years ago.
In a letter to the Committee on Community Improvement, Gatsas wrote: "In the past the Quality Council produced the City Chatter newsletter. However due to a change in the make-up of the committee the newsletter has not been produced in some time to no fault of the Quality Council or any of the members."
The Quality Council was established in 2000, to be comprised of "representatives from the Aldermanic Board, department heads and the unions representing city employees," according to the city government website.
In his letter to the aldermen, Gatsas states: "Department heads have welcomed the idea and feel that it will be a welcome addition to the culture here at City Hall."
The newsletter is available on the city website, manchesternh.gov, on the pages of the Office of the Mayor and CityView.
