D.C. District Court Grants Organizations Motion to Intervene in COOL Lawsuit
The U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia has entered an order granting the motion by the United States Cattlemen's Association, NFU, American Sheep Industry Association and Consumer Federation of America to intervene in full in the COOL lawsuit filed by various organizations - including the National Cattlemen's Beef Association and National Pork Producers Council - on July 8th. USCA President Jon Wooster says the plaintiffs filed a partial opposition to the motion to intervene - opposing the intervenors' participation in the preliminary injunction - sought by the plaintiffs on July 26th - but also taking no position on their participation in the part of litigation dealing with the merits. Wooster says the court's order granting the motion to intervene makes clear USCA, NFU, ASI and CFA can participate at the preliminary injunction and the remainder of the litigation.
The intervenors have filed briefs with the court presenting their opposition to the preliminary injunction motion filed by the plaintiffs - and the court has given plaintiffs a deadline of this Thursday - August 22nd - to reply to this opposition. A hearing has been set for August 27th. Wooster says USCA and its fellow intervenors are strong advocates to ensure consumers know where their beef is from and believe the revised COOL regulations will reduce consumer confusion. Wooster says if granted - a preliminary injunction would further delay consumers having the type of information Congress has long wanted and that all who believe in COOL have been seeking through the regulatory process.

Apparently, the Department of Homeland Security takes the leaderless activist group Anonymous very, very seriously.
But that doesn't mean that the feds take what it says at face value. For instance, when Anonymous – which could literally be any teenager behind a keyboard – comes out to say that it's calling on people to get up off their couches and "rage with voices, not with violence," DHS evidently takes that as a cue that it's time to issue a formal security bulletin.Read more »

Midway through the introduction to More Curious (McSweeney's Books, 342 pp., $22), his recently-published collection of essays from the last 15 years, Sean Wilsey (who appears at the Booksmith Thu/21) reveals his quest to combine the styles of Thomas Pynchon and New Yorker legend Joseph Mitchell — paranoia and precision, respectively.
The introduction itself is a joyfully meta attempt at this very task. The 20-odd pages of often non-sequitorial rumination about the aforementioned authors, the triviality of the 1990s, and the first Obama election can be mistaken as "formless while still astonishingly informative" or "so intricately constructed and fact-filled that the form is too complex to be instantly identified." The happy reality of all of Wilsey's essays is somewhere between these two perceptions.

There have been no new developments in the case of Feather, aka Bryan Higgins, the Radical Faerie who was found beaten near Duboce Park, and who later died at SF General.
Feather was found around 7:30am on Sunday, Aug. 10 near Church and Duboce streets. Police are still looking for a white man in his 20s or 30s wearing a grey hoodie at the time of the attack. Police are reviewing camera footage which supposedly contains images of the attack, but have yet to release the footage to the public.

The weather was gorgeous, the lines weren't too long, and the people were friendly -- and hungry -- at the sixth annual SF Street Food Festival last Saturday.
About those shorter lines, though -- that meant we had access to pretty much any food we wanted in less than 10 minutes! (Except for the ever-popular ramenburger from Nombe, the line for which stretched almost the length of a block.) Uh oh, we were faced with unlimited choices, too many for our stomachs to bear, try as we might. And we might!

Yes, just now
Just did the process, now. So, yes, I have traveled with the picture, seconds ago
Here's the result:
I saw the water fall in the background across a lovely green emerald-ish small lake or pond surrounded by gorgeous tropical flora and fauna. Beautiful high trees traveling to the sky all around. So high they created a kind of canopy over the pond. The waterfall cascaded down over high rocks and behind the waterfall was a quiet resting place where people gathered, feasted, and an ancient man sat calmly and wise. A girl, woman, named Flay, walked around the waterfall to a rock where I sat as Onda on a rock, she brought me food on a tray, lovely fruits like apples and something canteloupe orange and juicy like cantaloupe but not. Emerald glistening sequined fish dancing rainbow colors off their scales poked through the pond's surface flashing brilliant colors into the air. The air tasted sweet, yet dank from the healthy decay fostering new growth all around. The earth was soft and smelled dank, too, yet hearty like a good nutritious meal lasting long after the eating, sustaining you for a long, long time. I felt the earth under me even tho I sat on the rock where Flay had brought the food. Simulataneously, as well, I felt and breathed this air, full and hearty, too. While being in place, I also was in spirit behind the water fall where the feasting took place, as if in several places at once, yet happy motionless on the rock. Even as receiving the love and food from Flay, I was still very still on the rock, yet in spirit and image somehow moving to her too to accept her food and gift of spirit. We mounted a large bird of a kind I have never seen before and flew magnificently into the air, clear and radiant and full of sunlight, even though canopy from the trees so high seemed to both cover the pond yet be open and clear to the sky of blue with white fluffy cumulus clouds, as if again, much was happening in this place simultaneously as if while in place many dimensions were in play and all realities of the present moment, intertwined like the strands of a beautiful woven fabric, all connected, radiant and blessed. Emotionally, I felt strange, new, free and puzzled by the experience, yet somehow at home with it too, comfortable with it, in fact knowing it as a reality. Juxtaposed emotions, I suppose. Contradictory, yet feeling both. I liked it there. A lot. And didn't want to leave. And would like to go back... to inhabit that world which I suppose is a telling emotional response. Physically I felt strong, vibrant, healthy, muscular as in fit... very healthy. Smells were contradictory too in that the air and earth and water and spray from the falls all felt moist and dank yet clear too as in fresh and easily passed through the nostrils, welcomed by the nostrils as if these smells nourished somehow, too. I heard the sounds of the birds in the air, colored birds, large birds like South American birds. Not a lot, just early on in the experience as the stage was being set forming itself and flowing. It sounds as if I was there a long time, in this reality's time measure, yet only a very short period in this reality. Much happened. Interesting this. Yes. Thank you Shirley for jogging me to do this.
All good to all.

Issued by Carl Zulauf and Nick Rettig, The Ohio State University
In its October World Agricultural Supply and Demand Estimates, USDA increased the estimated feeding of wheat during the current 2012/13 wheat crop year by 95 million bushels to 315 million bushels.
This change was prompted by the September 1 stocks report and suggests that increased feeding of wheat will join increased imports and reduced consumption as market responses to the drought-reduced 2012 corn and soybean crops. Therefore, this article examines the historic role of wheat feeding in the U.S. and the factors associated with it.
USDA currently projects that the feeding of wheat will account for 12.7% of total projected use of U.S. wheat during the 2012 wheat crop year. This exceeds the average share of 9.1% and is the highest share since the 2000 wheat crop year.
Wheat feeding has ranged from 16 million bushels or a 0.7% share in the 2007 wheat crop year to 484 million bushels or a 19.9% share in the 1990 wheat crop year. No linear trend exists over time in the share of wheat that is fed. Historically, wheat feeding is usually concentrated in the first quarter of the wheat crop year, or June through August.
In fact, between the 1974 and 2011 crop years, USDA reports that 15% more wheat was fed during the first quarter than was fed for the entire year. While not possible if the use category was only feeding, this data reporting relationship serves as a reminder of the important role residual use plays in this use category.
The decision to use any grain, including wheat, in feeding livestock is a complex management decision. Energy and nutritional needs in a balanced feed ration are specific to both the animal species and the type of animal within a species.
Moreover, changing the mix of wheat in a ration during a feeding cycle can materially reduce feeding efficiency. Hence, livestock feeders want to be relatively certain that not only is wheat a cheaper source of feed now but will remain so throughout the feeding cycle.
In other words, the decision to feed wheat is more of a longer-term strategic decision than a short-term tactical decision. This may partially explain why the share of wheat that is fed is positively and statistically significantly correlated in adjoining years: +0.42. Thus, high wheat feeding in one year is likely to be followed by high wheat feeding next year.

MOORE, OK - The Oklahoma County Sheriff's office tweeted a photo of a frightened, muddy dog Monday after a deadly EF-5 tornado ripped through the town.
The comment accompanying the photo said, "scared, but this little pup survived."
On Tuesday, the photo became more poignant when the owner's body was discovered near where the pup was standing watch.
"Man's best friend to end," the post reads."The dog was standing guard over a deceased individual, possibly its owner..."
The dog was taken to a shelter, and the deputy who found it hopes to be able to adopt it.
The photo has been shared and liked thousands of times.

Research Hunches
Our voices have been heard
2009: The first research project focused on micro-RNA, or microscopic breast cancer markers that circulate in blood. Lead investigator Hari Nakshatri, Ph.D., made the discovery that the micro-RNA, U6, was present in breast cancer patients. This was a tremendous finding as researchers had never before documented this discovery. Without funding from 100 Voices of Hope, this discovery would have never been made.
2010: 100 Voices of Hope allowed Dr. Nakshatri to confirm the presence of U6 in women with estrogen-sensitive breast cancer. Through this validation, not only has Dr. Nakshatri been awarded a $400,000 grant from the National Cancer Institute to continue studying U6, but also he has been published in the prestigious peer-reviewed journal Breast Cancer Research and, most recently, the university has secured a patent for his U6 discovery.
2011: Two research projects were funded. The first focused on identifying genes that will predict late recurrence of breast cancer. Breast tissue taken at the time of diagnosis will be compared with tissue from women who are taking hormonal therapies at five and 10 years out from initial diagnosis. This will determine which genes are involved in late recurrence in hopes of developing a treatment to prevent it. Kim Ziner, R.N., Ph.D., is individually assessing thousands of patient records for eligibility in the study. To date, 85 cases have been identified which will allow pathologist Sunil Badve, M.D., to begin assessing microarrays of these tissue samples. This project is significant because currently there is no test to predict late recurrence at the time of diagnosis.
The second project in 2011 focused on studying novel drug targets for triple negative breast cancer (TNBC). These targets were identified by using cutting-edge genomics technologies that compared TNBC tissues to normal breast tissues. Milan Radovich, Ph.D., has identified several genes that are overexpressed in TNBC and is in the testing phase of targeted treatments.
2012: A second triple negative breast cancer research project was funded. The goal is to learn what causes this type of cancer to recur so rapidly in patients after standard therapy. Dr. Radovich is collecting plasma in TNBC patients enrolled in a clinical trial that is testing standard treatment against a novel treatment of cisplatin and a PARP inhibitor. The plasma will then be evaluated using genomic sequencing technology to measure circulating tumor DNA in patients on trial. The hope is to find markers that will identify patients who will relapse with the hope of understanding treatment interventions to prevent the development of metastatic disease.
2013: This year's research hunch stemmed from a chemical compound Samy Meroueh, Ph.D., and his research colleagues developed at IU. This compound was created to act as a homing agent to target a protein that is exclusively found in highly malignant cells. With 100 Voices of Hope funding, Dr. Meroueh is proposing to chemically link chemotherapeutics to the homing agent so the treatment is targeted to kill only the malignant cancer cells and spare the surrounding normal cells. If this approach is successful, it could lead to significantly less toxicity and allow a longer treatment period that will enable oncologists to better control or reverse metastatic disease.

Parks of unvisited Southern Tanzania...
The remote luxury of the Selous and Ruaha National Parks
If you have already been to the Serengeti and the Ngorongoro Crater and you have understandably fallen in love with Tanzania then you might like to visit the Selous and Ruaha National Parks. These parks are situated in southern Tanzania and they offer the luxury of vast unexplored areas in which to game drive in complete privacy.
The Selous and Ruaha offer visitors mighty rivers, lakes and forests and expanses of plains in the national parks that are home to millions of plains game and numerous predators.
Unbeknown to many but the Selous National Park is the largest National Park in Africa. With it being over four times the size of Serengeti in total as land mass it accounts for 5% of Tanzania. With far less visitors per square kilometre, the Selous really offers a safari off the beaten track where you are unlikely to bump into other vehicles.
The Selous National Park has a very diverse landscape from hot volcanic springs, vast lakes, to winding tributaries from the Great Rhaha and Rufiji rivers. The Selous is one of the more protected areas of Tanzania and as such is untouched and just as nature intended. The reserve was named after Frederick Courteney Selous, a British explorer in East Africa who was killed in World War 1 in the Beho region of the reserve.
The Selous is well known for it's dense number of elephant which accounts for approximately 70% of Tanzania's total population of them. Other animals strong in number are hippo – with more than 40,000 enjoying the parks river systems. There are rhino in the park although they are not present in large numbers but there are areas where Wild dog flourish as do lion.
Often the Selous National Park is twinned with the Ruaha National Park as a safari combination. The Ruaha National Park is one of Tanzania's least accessible parks, although this may initially be seen as a negative on the positive side this does mean that the outcome is a totally untouched park without much influence from numerous lodges, camps or tourists and therefore the Ruaha remains one of the most exciting game reserves untouched as of yet by safari tourism.
The Ruaha has a very varied and fascinating topography with groups of wild fig trees, many strong impressive baobab trees and gorges full of orange sandstone. The landscape alone provides the solitary visitor with a visual treat which is then complimented further by the fabulous rich game viewing opportunities which are very often a private affair.
The rivers of the Ruaha are home to large numbers of hippos and crocodiles with the land animals featuring the reedbuck, waterbuck and buffalo, which are kept on their toes by predators such as - the lion, leopard, jackal, spotted hyena, and the distinctive African hunting dog.
Southern Tanzania offers a chance to explore a remote habitat both by game drive across the plains and walking safari with your armed guide, there is also the opportunity to explore by river boat along the Rufigi river.

Fuzzy, but what I could get of the aftermath of a car crash
Happened around midnight. Driver missed the turn and ended up on the sidewalk. The station wagon gave off a lot of smoke and wasn't budging from where it had run up on the side walk (missing the electric pole by a few yards and the front of the house by a bit more. This was taken after they'd gotten the vehicle off the sidewalk, but hadn't gotten it operational or towed yet. Transit police were checking things out at this point.
I don't know what today is other than the first Saturday of the rainy season, but I heard a lot of loud kids and some noisy vehicles rolling around.
Taken with a 20mm f/1.7 lens wide open at 1/5th second, I think. I didn't want to use flash, not that the flash on the camera I have would have covered the distance.

Riding base layer underwear that add comfort for the long rides.
DIMITRI in PA
nice shorts for price but be better if they had more padingRead All Reviews
Zach in IL
This is the best investment I have made when it comes to my protective gear. These keep you from getting as sore after a long day of riding, and they fit perfectly under your riding pants. If you don't have a pair, you are missing out!Read All Reviews

Im 6'2, 210 with skinny chickens. Theres plenty of crotch room. Yep, I know right, TMI. They are a bit baggy in the legs, and the large fits like a size 33 waist. The pads on the sides dont seem to line up for a correct impact.Read All Reviews
Jimmie C in SC

Von in AZ
Works well. I've put lots if hours in wearing these evaporator tights. Still look new and function well. Much better than knee sleeves. It would be nice if they had a version with a padded crotch. Right now I just wear padded shorts over them.Read All Reviews

"It was a pleasure to work with Tim [Tim Behler '10, Graphic Design] -- his comfortable nature and excitement about the work made it easy to integrate him into our design team. Tim offered appropriate and useful suggestions in all meetings and helped to craft new directions at Armstrong. His knowledge of cutting-edge technology allowed him to demonstrate Adobe Kuler to the design team who incorporated its use immediately. Thank you for sending Tim our way."
~ Julia Pierce, senior manager commercial product design, Armstrong World Industries, Inc., Lancaster, PA
"I needed an intern who would grasp concepts quickly and complete work on time. Ken [Kenneth Lieb '10, Illustration] was able to produce exactly what I wanted--illustrations for the Borough of Columbia (PA) that accurately and appealingly described proposed development outcomes. Not only did his work reflect that goal but Ken put forth a great deal of effort and time on every piece. He worked very well with me and showed a high level of professionalism at all times. Ken will be successful working with all types of clients--a key ability for illustrators to have."
~ Jeri Stumpf, president, Jeri E. Stumpf & Associates, Inc. Willow Street, PA
"Adam [Adam DelMarcelle '10, Graphic Design] participated in a number of logo design projects with Infantree. He produced marks for everything from a non-profit organic farm in Ethiopia to a wine label for a boutique winery in California. He also learned a proprietary screen printing process we use and worked on a poster for the Fulton's Childrens Theater. Infantree has an old letterpress that Adam helped to get operational by researching missing parts and spending time at the Heritage Museum's printing shop for additional training. Adam's biggest undertaking was the "We Are Lancaster" zine. He handled the layout, did much of the photography and screen-printed 100 one-color covers. The zine was a project for which we only gave Adam the vision and set him loose to make it his own. He did an excellent job."
~ Ryan Martin, creative strategist, The Infantree, Lancaster, PA
"We needed an intern to establish an art program for adult students who are blind and vision impaired. With input from trained staff, Tina [Tina Blizzard '10, Fine Arts] developed an art class that consisted of hands-on instruction in a variety of media that emphasized tactile processes. The class also included lectures on various art periods and much discussion about how to adapt materials and techniques to the needs of individual students. In addition to providing excellent instruction to her students, Tina helped them grow in self-confidence and to believe in themselves as artists. We saw our clients make
new friends, reach new goals in art-making and exhibit pride in what they had done. At the conclusion of the program, Tina was instrumental in guiding the coordination of a final exhibit."
~ Shandra Mortensen, volunteer coordinator and Bernadette Anderson, vision rehabilitation therapist, Susquehanna Association for the Blind, Lancaster, PA
"As an intern, I expected Lisandro [Lisandro Gonzalez '10, Illustration] to have good painting, drawing and communication skills. But in addition, he came with a strong sense of professionalism and an understanding that deadlines in illustration must be met on time. In terms of his own work, Lisandro kept an open mind and was willing to push his boundaries and try new things. He accepted criticism well and was determined to improve."
~ Steve Belledin, illustrator
"Astrid [Astrid Salim '10, Graphic Design] is EXCEPTIONAL! From the first meeting with her, we were impressed by her professionalism and skill. She took on two challenging projects: a corporate brochure project that needed to be approved by two different organizations with two different sets of design guidelines and development of a new logo for us. Astrid presented work as requested; explained her design decisions well and handled feedback and critique with absolute grace. She was able to conceptualize our company and its mission in a very short period of time and accomplished all projects sent her way in a timely, efficient and creative way. We appreciated Astrid's skills so much that we have offered her full-time employment at graduation."
~ Jenni Leister, director of operations, Ten Thousand Villages, Ephrata, PA
"Eve [Eve Cowan '10, Photography] was a wonderful intern--attentive, eager, helpful and very bright. In her major, Eve had already had experience with lighting and medium-format digital cameras. Her skills in both traditional and digital photography gave her confidence and command in a range of work assignments from me. Overall, Eve was a great asset."
~ Elena Dorfman, photographer, Los Angeles, CA
"Officially, Ashley [Ashley Graham '09, Fine Arts] was the development intern but she quickly became the museum intern--she was that good. Ashley was consistently creative, flexible and cooperative. She had good, workable suggestions that facilitated the projects she was assigned to. Ashley accomplished a complex research project for the development office that resulted in an organized spreadsheet of museum donors and donor prospects. She quickly understood the project and the necessity of completing it accurately. Ashley realized that she was learning something important to fine artists--how the business side of a museum actually works."
~ Margie Lamberson, director of development, Lancaster Museum of Art, Lancaster, PA
"Sarah hit the ground running. We threw lots of different projects at her during her internship with us, one of which has just been published: Discovery Channel branded 'Earth Book: Our Changing Planet.' Sarah helped us conceptualize, design and lay out Earth Book. Her ideas greatly improved the look and feel of the book… If you look on the credit page, you'll see credit given to Sarah for design consultation. Future GeoNova publications will have the benefit of her design work, which is a credit not only to her, but to PCA&D as well."
– Dan Etter, former director of publications, GeoNova (The parent company of Lancaster-based GeoNova is Discovery Communications, Inc., the leading non-fiction media company in the world, reaching more than 1.5 billion cumulative subscribers in more than 170 countries – 2008-2009.)
"In Graham's case [Graham Goss '09, Illustration], a high level of skill was already present when we began to work together. He had a good understanding of his technique and the range of materials he could use made for an advanced student who only needed a little encouragement and guidance. I worked with him from sketch to finish on a piece for his final portfolio and found his attitude and professionalism throughout this process to be first rate."
~ Steve Chorney, illustrator
"I have worked with a lot of interns and Cara [Cara Hutzley '10, Photography] stood out among them as a young professional who knew how to pay attention and learn from studio experiences. Cara was always thinking about what to do next--without being asked. She was quiet on photo shoots but understood processes and was able to use them later. She was always punctual and put in some very long days cheerfully--a good sign in an aspiring professional photographer."
~ Anne Gummerson, photographer, Baltimore, MD
"The skills needed by a forensic artist include drawing, interviewing and ability to manage a project from start to finish. Christine [Christine Lomnychuk '09, Illustration] was successful in understaanding and implementing the techniques of composite sketching and her level of professionalism in handling the details of each project was excellent. Her empathy in communicating with clients makes her well suited to this profession."
~ Stephen Mancusi, forensic artist Mr. Mancusi is also senior forensic/digital artist for the NYPD.
"I engaged my PCA&D intern [Kanghee Cho '09, Fine Arts] in many aspects of the center's activities. She assisted with the gallery and with setting up for classes and sculpture projects. Her sculpture project experience included providing a helping hand in ceramic mold making and the bronze casting processes. She was successful in all areas and was also able to create two of her own bronzes during the internship period."
– George Mummert, executive director, Keystone Art & Culture Center, Lancaster, PA – 2009

ASHWAUBENON, WI (WTAQ) - While 20 girls high school basketball teams were taking part in the WIAA state tournament over the last three days, they got a chance to see a big part of Wisconsin sports history.
Team members were given free tours of Lambeau Field by the Green Bay Packers.
The tournament is being played in the Resch Center in Ashwaubenon, just across the street from the historic home of the Packers.
The girls got to run out the tunnel to the field, while listening to a recording of cheering NFL fans.
They also took photos and watched a welcome message on the big video screens.

On the 11th day of the 11th month in 1918 the guns on the Western Front fell silent. It ended four years of bloody war, the worse the world had seen to date.
Two decades later the world was at war again.
On this day, we remember those who gave their lives, on all sides, in the dark hell that is war. We pray that this never occurs again and hope that all who still serve in wars overseas may return to their families safely.
They shall grow not old, as we that are left grow old:
Age shall not weary them, nor the years condemn.
At the going down of the sun and in the morning,
We will remember them.
Lest we forget

Albuterol is commonly used for short-term relief of asthma symptoms. A type of medication known as a short-acting bronchodilator, it eases symptoms by opening the airways during an asthma flare-up.
Albuterol is usually given with a metered dose inhaler (ProAir HFA, Ventolin HFA, others) and sometimes in tablet or liquid form. Albuterol side effects can include:
More-serious — though less common — side effects include:
Albuterol side effects are worse with the liquid or tablet form than with the inhaled form. Also, the risk of albuterol side effects increases with higher doses.
To ease medication side effects, you may need to try a metered dose inhaler if you are taking the liquid or tablet form. Or it may be worthwhile to try a different quick-relief medication, such as the short-acting bronchodilator levalbuterol (Xopenex) or pirbuterol (Maxair).
If you use albuterol three or more times a week or have severe asthma symptoms, you probably need to take a long-term asthma medication to better control your asthma. With asthma under better control, you won't need to use albuterol or another quick-relief medication as often.
Carefully track your asthma, and check with your doctor about any changes that may be needed. Avoid any known asthma triggers. Work with your doctor to make sure you're using the right type and dose of medication to keep your symptoms — and medication side effects — under control.

When I want to get amped up in the morning, Black Label Society's "The Blessed Hellride" is one of my go-to albums.
Now, thanks to Zakk Wylde, my mornings just got a little more cranked!
Check it:
Two final thoughts.
1) Zakk's voiceover sounds like Oderous Urungus from GWAR.
2) It ain't Duncan Hills but it'll do.

These Autumn Inspirational poems are examples of Inspirational poems about Autumn. These are the best examples of Autumn Inspirational poems written by international PoetrySoup poets
Tis the rose that wants to live
That rails against the frost,
Tightly closed, the petals warm
The autumn heart that summer lost.
The dew that drips from rose to leaf
Like tears from cheek to breast,
Once was cold, now shimmers warm
To earn, at last, its' rest.
The blackened bud, once struck with cold
Appears to others dead,
But burns within, a passionate soul,
And heart of bright and crimson red.
And bursting forth it cannot hide
The will to live within,
Its' bold and subtle softness tells
Persistent hearts can win.
Craig Cornish
This quatrain poem was written twenty plus years ago and was inspired by a true frost bitten rose at a truly emotional time and its story and message is real and still lives. I brought the rose in and put it in a vase and it opened to be a perfect rose and like the rose love did the same.
Seasons come
And seasons go
In all of the above
Her colours flow
Just like pages
In a book
What the seasons bring
Are worth a look
Spring brings life
In many ways
The sun radiates
From warm awesome rays
The summer oozes
With blooms and colours
Greenery greens
Canopy covers
The winter decides
Who lives and dies
The reader dissects
In passionate cries
But the season for me
Are the Autumn Pages
It's decision to end
In colourful stages
This poem came to me as i was reading poems by Autumn Page.
The sun had a way, of lighting the fires
that would often die, and turn to ash, and dash our hope
The wind had a way, to spread the flame,
to light the way
or die in vain
Sun-ripe gold and red leaves
have lined each trail and every road with heavy brilliance
Our eyes, perhaps unwise, were often blinded by the glare
But embers, frozen there, remained alive
Approaching autumn, there is new fire
Ripe with the sun, we have been shaped and formed
grieving over postscripts, of a faded summer sky
while the outstretched arm of autumn
reaches through the trees---
Her leaf-fluttered hand opens fingers wide
brushing passed branch silhouettes, to look into the sky
and has tossed the evening embers
to light our way
For Gail's Contest: Where Frozen Embers Still Burn 8/27/14
In winter's white, as angels cry
for early spring to warm the wind,
to bring to life with gentle sigh,
in love, the bitter frost has thinned.
For early spring to warm the wind,
at Valentine's romantic calls,
in love, the bitter frost has thinned,
where dancers twirl amid stone walls.
At Valentine's romantic calls,
rebirth of nature's light divine,
where dancers twirl amid stone walls,
and blossoms pastel shades recline.
Rebirth of nature's light divine,
when day equals the hours of night,
and blossoms pastel shades recline,
to hail the queen of May in light.
When day equals the hours of night,
a summer's sun will come to play,
to hail the queen of May in light,
we chant and sing along the way.
A summer's sun will come to play,
so life can grow as gods decreed,
we chant and sing along the way,
with warmth and light our hunger feed.
So life can grow as gods decreed,
the rays of sun on seeds we've sown,
with warmth and light our hunger feed,
the wealth of harvest is our own.
The rays of sun on seeds we've sown,
in autumn breeze that chills the heat,
the wealth of harvest is our own,
as gold and red belies our feet.
In autumn breeze that chills the heat,
a year that ends with blessed Samhain,
as gold and red belies our feet,
the call of Ancient's name to reign.
A year that ends with blessed Samhain,
to bring to life with gentle sigh,
the call of Ancient's name to reign,
in winter's white, as angels cry.
My Son Moon and Star ~
Approaching the celebration of his Birth
cherishing the gift I received
within weeks of conception I knew
something amazing was in Creation ~
the Stars held a party
sending me with one of their own
Gazing at 3 shooting stars twinkling crossing the sky
It was magic It was destiny taking its flight.
In love with an October full moon
drawing and painting I liked
thinking of Vincent Van Gogh ~
caught in a loss of time
Hours going by as choosing my color
a wittness to three falling stars
A clear night sky sparkle's
A once Famous Star was sent
inspiring the tiny child inside ~
Never a doubt in my mind at all
child bearing was worth any pain received

and thereafter
"Look up," she cried,
And the rains came swiftly,
Overwhelming her youth
With migrant purpose.
Summer's demise,
So abrupt,
Interrupted her sound-scape,
Giving her pause.
"Look around," she said,
And autumn bowed to her,
A colorful character
In shades of golden afternoons.
Sequestered among
Such vividness,
She found solace and comfort
Through the grace of experience.
"Look up," she laughed,
And silver dusted her hair,
Weighing the diversity
She wore as a crown.
Abstract changes
Became her teacher,
A benevolent
Yet unforgiving presence.
"Look around," she said,
And spread her arms wide,
Dancing in the perspective
Of winter.
This life is transitory,
Best marked
By the seasoning
Of one's attitude.
Forest alive now
Autumn colors brilliant glow
Poplar_ Maple grow
Colors seen_red, yellow, rust
Auroras of autumn flow
Elegantly dressed
For the last ball before snow
She smiles at artist
As he gathers paints blends shades
Painting her colorful gown
As sunlight dances
Against gown that glows with dew
Gracefully she bows
As bare limbs begin to show
Last of grace before first snow
I never knew I'd be in heaven
In the autumn of my years,
Or that I'd be immerged
In the brilliant art of words,
Or float above operatic notes,
Or view ballet through
My elated tears.
I never thought I'd meet
Inspiration face to face,
Or feel it rise within me
With a poet's surrendering grace.
I just know that I'm contented
As profound love keeps flowing
From my impassioned heart.
This is the gift that artists
Of this world yearn to impart.
© Connie Marcum Wong
My golden love of autumn morn
touch so delicate this heart torn
with amber streaming light adorn
and peaceful hues of grace
You touch this soul, again reborn
a loving interlace...
You rise above the mountain height's
with calming rays of loving light
where ocher words of hymn's recite
and emerald vale receive
I lay in warmth my soul ignite's
as one with God, I cleave...
Rime Couee
My autumn wine; white winter rose
Please tell me how your garden grows?
I've lost my touch, I feared as much
You are fragile and it shows
Can I still call upon you?
With no words ever spoken to you?
And would you come to me?
Could you hear me in a dream?
Would you "sense" me if I came close,
But not in sight of you eyes?
Would you tempt me if giving up hope
Could cleanse me of all the lies?
I survive through a disguise
Designed to hide my immortal light
You will never see it
For I am a chameleon
Crawling through the ancient garden
The (other) not known as Eden
For it has no name to keep it safe
Until light shines on this darkened place
"April showers bring May flowers"
And so your flower has not yet soured
You still have the power to reverse your desires
My white winter rose, will you grow any higher?
Prosper or wither
The choice is now yours
Bound or severed
I've done all I could

Wal-Mart sues union over protests
The retailer says union groups trespassed on its stores to address unfair labor policies, but critics and competitors say the superstore is missing the point.
Despite trespass laws already on the books that can punish protesters who enter Wal-Mart's stores and that little amendment at the top of the Bill of Rights that protects their presence beyond its parking lot, the superstore decided that suing its foes is the best way to stop an ongoing labor dispute in Florida.
Reuters quoted a Wal-Mart spokeman citing "disruptive tactics" and (the redundant) "illegal trespassing" for pressing the suit against the United Food and Commercial Workers International Union (UFCW) and a group of current and former employees in a union subsidiary known as OUR Walmart. The suit, originally filed on Friday, has as much to do with criticism of Wal-Mart's labor practices as it does with its property rights claims.
Wal-Mart alleged that the defendants violated Florida law through coordinated, statewide acts of trespass in several Wal-Mart stores over the last eight months. It has asked the court for a permanent injunction against such protests, which have included picketing and flash mobs. It alleges protesters last year projected a video promoting their cause onto one store, passed out literature in another and handed a rotten pumpkin to a store manager in yet another.
Wal-Mart claims it called police in certain instances, but complains that no arrests were made despite law enforcement issuing 30 trespass warrants. That, however, isn't what prompted Wal-Mart to file an unfair labor practice charge against the union with the National Labor Relations Board in November. Nope, what got the retailer all worked up were threats of strikes and a walkout by employees irate about the store's extended Black Friday sales -- presenting a risk to the company's holiday-season bottom line.
The retailer still posted an 8.6% boost in profits for the fourth quarter, prompting unions to suggest that Wal-Mart was dodging the real issue: the average Wal-Mart associate's $8.81-an-hour paycheck, which adds up to a yearly wage of about $15,500 and keeps hundreds of thousands of the company's workers living below the poverty line. Union subsidiary OUR Wal-Mart wants average wages bumped up to $13-an-hour, but non-union Wal-Mart hasn't acknowledged their complaints.
The timing of Wal-Mart's suit is somewhat awkward, especially considering that its competition at Costco (COST) is lobbying for a higher minimum wage, paying its starting employees nearly $3 more an hour than Wal-Mart and considering benefits like health care untouchable. Oh, and Costco just inked a three-year contract with the Teamsters. As much as customers love both Wal-Mart and Costco's low prices, they don't like going through picket lines and hearing about unfair labor practices to get to them. Wal-Mart knows this, but Costco's strategy seems a lot less messy.
We need Henry Frick back from dead to deal with these Unions!
OUR Wal-Mart what a joke, it's NOT your store, nor is any other business
Also the poverty levels for 2012 were $11170 for a single person & $15130 for 2 in a household, so $15500 is plenty to pay them, if not too much for such unskilled work.
Hopefully rf/nfc tags come soon on every product, then I can just grab what I want and walk out without dealing with a checkout person, thus they can all be laid off and prices lowered.

Pantry Moth Traps Set of 2 10 10
AMAZING ! These work soooo well! They will pay for themselves in no time. I always keep an extra just in case I need it. No more of those sneaky little moths in my pantry - and no more having to throw away unopened food. Great product! December 20, 2012
Moth Traps for Pantry and Pet Areas This product works better than any others I have tried. Works great to get rid of pesky moths in bird seed. July 11, 2012
Great Product This product does exactly what it says it will do, attract and trap pantry moths. I have been pleasantly surprised at how many have been caught but the good news is that means that many are not flying around my house and laying eggs everywhere! Have bought multiple times and would recommend to anyone with moth problems or anyone that wants to make sure they don't have moth problems! June 20, 2012
Moth trap doe sthe job This product works! It targets the moths you might find in flour, dog food, nuts, crackers and similar products. It attracts them to a lure, and they stick to the glue-coated surface. On the other hand, if you tend to leave windows or doors without screens, it will bring more into your house; so they will flutter around before going to the lure. June 1, 2012
Moth killer After I had cleaned out everything in my pantry and got rid of anything that I thought could be a breeding ground for the moths I placed 2 moth killers on the top shelves of my pantry on opposite sides. By night time of the next day I had trapped 3 moths. Each subsequent day I watched as the traps killed more and more moths. Finally after 9 days I no longer have any sign of moths in my pantry. Excellent produce that I would recommend to anyone with a pantry moth problem March 14, 2012
Bye Bye buggies Well anything that sits in your cupboard to catch those pesky flour moths is not going to be good looking as they are not going to be seen. The flour mother brought home from the grocery store are nothing if not pesky and these traps do their job without containing poisons, without assembly and are easy to dispose of when full. I applaud Improvements for keeping these items on hand. December 9, 2011

NEWS BLOG (WSAU) I like trains, and ride them often as I travel to and from my vacations. I also hate to see wasted money surrounding train operations. The finances of rail service stink. Wasted money just vanishes into thin air (or someone's pocket), and it can't be used to make things better. I'm well aware that many people see train travel as an entirely unnecessary boondoggle. They'd like to scrap Amtrak altogether and put the money towards cutting the deficit.
Amtrak will drop snack food service on it's Hiawatha Service
trains between
If you ride the Hiawatha, you can buy snacks, soda, and beer
from a rolling cart that's staffed by an on-board employee. The service
operated at a loss of about a quarter-million dollars last year. Actually, that's
a much smaller loss than other routes. Amtrak's Empire Service trains from
Truth is, the train ride between
The state DOT is considering whether to add WiFi to the Hiawatha's passenger cars. Let's hope they don't think too long. The Hiawatha's passengers can already ride a bus instead, with internet access, for $9. The train costs $22. The loss on the food cart – about 75-cents per passenger – is almost enough money to give everyone a small pack on peanuts and a soda as part of their ticket, like the airlines do.

Reviews for Seafood Lasagna
Sort By :
I made this for Father's Day! It was delicious. It had the perfect combination of seafood. I used real crab meat.
Its is a very good recipe. However, I find using too much real crab meat will give it an overwhelming taste. That's most likely why they suggest imitation crab meat.
This was sooo good! I made it using frozen shrimp and scallops, both defrosted. Wonderful taste. Rich and creamy. Will definitely make it again.
Being a Creole girl from New Orleans, LA., I simple love seafood. I tried this dish but I used real lump crab meat, added the holy trinity (onion, bell pepper and celery), added white cooking wine to the sauce and added a dash of Old Bay seasoning. Chile' my husband still licking his fingers.
Yum!!! Added a tablespoon of brandy to the white sauce and it really brought out the flavor and creaminess. I've also made this where I mixed the white sauce and seafood mix and then poured it into a 9x13 over cheese ravioli - cooked at 350 until bubbly. One of my family's favorites!

To be hopeful in bad times is not just foolishly romantic. It is based on the fact that human history is a history not only of cruelty, but also of compassion, sacrifice, courage, kindness.
What we choose to emphasize in this complex history will determine our lives. If we see only the worst, it destroys our capacity to do something. If we remember those times and places—and there are so many—where people have behaved magnificently, this gives us the energy to act, and at least the possibility of sending this spinning top of a world in a different direction.
And if we do act, in however small a way, we don't have to wait for some grand utopian future. The future is an infinite succession of presents, and to live now as we think human beings should live, in defiance of all that is bad around us, is itself a marvelous victory.

7 Mistaken Assumptions Angry People Make (Psych Central) ›
Very, very good read.
"Angry people feel that anger entitles them to let loose. It's up to other people not to take seriously hurtful things they say or do. After all, they say, they were just angry. They don't get it that other people are legitimately hurt, embarrassed, humiliated, or afraid."
via Psych Central:
- They can't help it. Angry people have lots of excuses. Women will blame their PMS. Both sexes will blame their stress, their exhaustion, or their worries. Never mind that other people who have PMS or who are stressed, tired, or worried don't pop off at the world. Angry people don't yet understand that they are actually giving themselves permission to rant. In that sense, they are very much in control.
- The only way to express anger is to explode. People who rage believe that anger is like the buildup of steam in an overheated steam engine. They think they need to blow off the steam in order to be OK. In fact, raging tends only to produce more of the same.
- Frustration is intolerable. Angry people can't sit with frustration, anxiety or fear. To them, such feelings are a signal that they are being challenged. When life doesn't go their way, when someone doesn't see things as they do, when their best-laid plans get interrupted or they make a mistake, they simply can't tolerate it. To them, it's better to blow than to be left with those feelings. They don't get that frustration is a normal part of everyone's life and that it is often the source of creativity and inspiration.
- It's more important to win than to be right. Chronically angry people often have the idea that their status is at stake when there is conflict. When questioned, they take it overly personally. If they are losing an argument, they experience a loss of self-esteem. At that moment, they need to assert their authority, even if they are wrong. When it is certain that they are wrong, they will find a way to prove that the other person is more wrong. For mature people, self-esteem is grounded in being able to put ego aside in order to find the best solution.
- "Respect" means that people do things their way. When another driver tailgates, when a partner refuses to go along with a plan, when a kid doesn't jump when told to do something, they feel disrespected. To them, disrespect is intolerable. Making a lot of noise and threatening is their way of reasserting their right to "respect" by others. Sadly, when the basis of "respect" is fear, it takes a toll on love and caring.
- The way to make things right is to fight. Some angry people have learned at the feet of a master. Having grown up with parents who fight, it is their "normal." They haven't a clue how to negotiate differences or manage conflict except by escalating. Then they become very much like the parent they loathed and feared when they were kids.
- Other people should understand that they didn't mean what they did or said when they were angry. Angry people feel that anger entitles them to let loose. It's up to other people not to take seriously hurtful things they say or do. After all, they say, they were just angry. They don't get it that other people are legitimately hurt, embarrassed, humiliated, or afraid.

Ah, Sisig! When prepared correctly, nothing quite captures the varied flavors and textures of Filipino cuisine like a sizzling-hot platter of chopped pig's face. It's true.
Chewy and crispy, fatty and meaty, sour and spicy--they're all there. Gustatory opposites complementing each other on a single plate of porky goodness. And thanks in large part to the increasing popularity of ethnic street food in the United States, and more specifically, to the growing interest in Filipino cuisine as a whole, more and more people have come to enjoy this once-obscure Pinoy dish.
Since my first post on Sisig nearly three years ago, the humble street food has gone on to enjoy some time in the limelight (err, kalamansi-light?). Sure, sisig has always been served in a handful of mom-and-pop hole-in-the-walls, but it didn't hurt that some yahoo started slinging pig face from a food truck, or that Anthony Bourdain sang Sisig's praises on TV:
Alas, despite the joys that come with eating the wobbly and chewy bits of a pig's face and ears, some people just can't bring themselves to eat the wobbly and chewy bits of a pig's face and ears. And that's understandable. I suppose.
But if you've got no qualms with stuffing your own face with that of a pig, there's also the not-so-small issue of fat--and there's a lot of it in pig cheeks. Take a look at a cross-section of a pork jowl and it looks a lot like that of a pork belly, hence the term "face bacon".
So what's a Filipino food lover to do when a hankering for sisig is had, but just sans fatty face? Luckily, there are more savory sisig scenarios besides pork. Filipinos have long sisig'd other proteins like tofu, chicken, and various seafoods.
But sisig made from Bangus (or milkfish), is perhaps my favorite non-pork face option for the classic street food.

"This was exactly what I wanted for my daughter's introduction to family and friends. It is a simple and clean design. The pink is soft, not overpowering like most pinks for baby girls."
"The photo quality on the cards was excellent, and the design just beautiful. It's a shame to have to post them! The cards were delivered very quickly, too."
"The cards were absolutely adorable and printed on a high quality stock. Everyone loved the cards and asked where did I get them....trust me this card is well worth the investment."
