ST. LUCIE COUNTY -- Want to travel back in time to the days of doo-wop and golden oldies? The Voices of Legends concert series, appearing monthly at the Port St. Lucie Civic Center in Port St. Lucie, is bringing the singers here for everyone to enjoy on Sunday, Feb. 24.
The concert series is headlined by Johnny Tarangelo, known as "Johnny T.," who was named by "Billboard" magazine as one of the top 10 tribute artists, and was formerly with the group the Mystics.
"His show of impersonating all of the great singers is really wonderful," said Laura O'Brien, hospitality manager of the Port St. Lucie Civic Center. "His voice is amazing."
Mr. Tarangelo performs his concert series at venues all over the country. In 1980, he joined the Mystics and toured with them until 1992. While pursuing a solo career, he started singing impersonations of the famous crooners of the 50s and 60s.
Video footage of the original crooners runs at the same time as his vocal performance, making the show truly entertaining.
There are two 90-minute performances a month, held on the same day. A dinner buffet is available with the earlier performance, catered by Domenick's Restaurant.
"They have been performing here since December and everyone loves it," Ms. O'Brien said.
The Port St. Lucie Civic Center is located at 9221 S.E. Civic Center Place in Port St. Lucie. The next performances will be held on Feb. 24 at 5:30 p.m. and 7:30 p.m. Tickets are $25 per person. A buffet will be available at 4:30 p.m. for those attending the earlier performance. With the buffet, the tickets are $50 per person. Tickets must be purchased by Feb. 20.

Publication Date: March 21, 2011
Citation: Kurtzman, C.P. 2011. Zygotorulaspora Kurtzman (2003). In: Kurtzman, C.P., Fell, J.W., Boekhout, T., editors. The Yeasts, a Taxonomic Study. Volume 2, 5th edition. New York, NY: Elsevier. p. 949-951. Technical Abstract: This chapter describes the ascomycete yeast genus Zygotorulaspora and is to be published in "The Yeasts, A Taxonomic Study, 5th edition." The two species in this genus were at different times placed in the genera Torulaspora, Zygosaccharomyces and Saccharomyces. Multigene phylogenetic analysis showed that they represented a separate clade most closely related to the genus Torulaspora. Consequently, based on sequence analysis, they were placed in a separate genus, Zygotorulaspora. The species appear to be worldwide in distribution and are occasionally the cause of food spoilage.

Inova is one of the first nationally accredited Pulmonary Hypertension Care Centers
Your body's immune system protects you from foreign substances such as bacteria, fungus and viruses that can cause infection.
Unfortunately, your immune system identifies your newly-transplanted lung(s) as a foreign substance and goes to work fighting off this intruder.
When your body's immune system attempts an attack, it is called rejection. Almost everyone develops rejection at some time. You will take immunosuppressive medications to fool your body and to prevent your immune system from attacking and damaging your new lung(s).
Rejection usually occurs in the first 6 months after transplantation, but it can occur at any point, especially if you do not take your medications correctly. This is one of the reasons we schedule you for frequent visits to the post-transplant clinic.
Learn the signs and symptoms of rejection. If you experience any of the following signs and symptoms of rejection, report them to your transplant team immediately:
A bronchoscopy with lung biopsy is used to confirm rejection and/or an infection. Click here to read more about bronchoscopy.
Your transplant team has many medications available to treat rejection. Treatment is usually given intravenously and includes higher doses of steroids or other medication. Depending on your situation, you may receive your treatment at home or in the hospital.

KNOXVILLE (WATE) - In a hearing Thursday, Judge Jon Kerry Blackwood granted motions for new trials for the four people originally convicted in the Christian-Newsom murders.
Former Knox County Judge Richard Baumgartner presided over the trials of Letalvis Cobbins, LeMaricus Davidson who is Cobbins' half-brother, Cobbins' friend George Thomas and Cobbins' then girlfriend Vanessa Coleman.
After their original trials, Davidson was sent to death row. Cobbins and Thomas received life sentences and Coleman was given a 53-year-sentence.
The victims, Channon Christian and her boyfriend, Chris Newsom, were carjacked, raped and murdered in January 2007.
Baumgartner, who became a drug addict, doctor shopped for narcotics and bought extensively from convicts in his drug court, pleaded guilty to official misconduct in March and was later disbarred, leading to the motions for new trials in this case.
At the start of Thursday's hearing, prosecutor Leland Price, who participated in the original trials, argued that Baumgartner's conduct outside court shouldn't be a deciding factor in these motions, and it could open the door to thousands of other cases being reconsidered.
Price said there were no technical problems in the transcript records so, "We say these were fair trials."
However, Davidson's attorney, Doug Trant, said during his client's trial, Judge Baumgartner was taking up to 30 hydrocodone pills a day.
Trant also said Baumgartner was visiting a woman who graduated from his drug court program, Deena Lee Castleman, in St. Mary's Hospital, sharing pills with her and later had sex with her in his chambers.
Baumgartner also lied to the court about Castleman passing a drug test, Trant said.
Coleman's attorney, Theodore Lavit, said Baumgartner was told to seek help for his addiction, but he stayed on the bench during Coleman's trial.
Judge Blackwood then said the court must consider whether there were major structural errors in the trials, and the hearing was not about the verdicts rendered by jurors.
Blackwood said Judge Baumgartner was incapable of serving as the thirteenth juror, or presiding judge, in three of these cases because he never signed off on the verdicts.
In fact, Judge Blackwood says there are many cases where Judge Baumgartner failed to act as the thirteenth juror.
No witnesses from the TBI probe of Baumgartner testified in Thursday's hearing, but Judge Blackwood used some statements as fact, reading from and detailing them in the hearing. He released that portion of the file to the public afterward.
Baumgartner's physician, Dr. Dean Conley, with Knoxville Gastroenterology, tried to wean Baumgartner off his addiction, referred him to another doctor and urged him to retire in 2008. Baumgartner admitted his addiction, but said he needed another three years on the bench.
Dr. Conley described Baumgartner's appearance at that time as "ghastly."
The TBI found Baumgartner was doctor shopping. Eight doctors were eventually prescribing hydrocodone, oxycodone and other pills to him. This was going on from 2006 through 2010.
Judge Blackwood said Baumgartner was paying for his prescriptions in cash and he described the actions by the pharmacies as "grossly negligent."
Baumgartner was also shopping the streets for drugs, according to the TBI probe.
Darlene Gray, the ex-wife of Baumgartner's drug dealer, Chris Gibson, reported Judge Baumgartner, who they called JB, to the TBI after Gibson asked her to get roxicodone for Baumgartner.
Gray also took pictures of Gibson and Baumgartner snorting crushed pills up their noses.
The TBI found Baumgartner called Gibson's home several times using the drug court phone.
Gibson was also Castleman's drug dealer, bailed her out of jail a couple times and met Baumgartner through her.
Gray told the TBI that Baumgartner asked her to "find him a girl for sex" and he took two-hour lunch breaks from the bench to do drugs. Baumgartner's car was photographed at Castleman's trailer in Powell.
The TBI found that during breaks in Davidson's trial, Baumgartner would visit Castleman when she was in St. Mary's Hospital.
The staff said he would always close the door to Castleman's room and be there 15-20 minutes at a time. He told a nurse at one point he was her attorney and later even identified himself as the judge.
St. Mary's registered nurse Margaret Hinkle told the TBI she dreaded seeing the trial judge coming to visit Castleman because she knew her patient would be "messed up" afterward.
The police were called to the hospital when 26 oxycodone pills were found in Castleman's hospital room. She said her boyfriend gave them to her.
Castleman was cited for possession of a controlled substance, and Baumgartner then tried to influence Judge Andrew Jackson and Assistant District Attorney Jeff Blevins to go easy on her, according to the TBI.
Knox County Drug Court Officer Lisa Mooneyham said she saw Castleman go in Baumgartner's chambers often when she was visibly high. She claimed she was delivering cookies to him.
Baumgartner later lied to a court clerk and called the YWCA, where he had gotten Castleman housing, and lied about her passing a drug test that was not administered properly. He told her he was "going to hell" for doing this, she told the TBI.
Prosecutors Leland Price and Takisha Fitzgerald saw Baumgartner weaving on Interstate 40 after Cobbins' jury selection in Nashville. He told them he was on medication for back problems.
Baumgartner's drug habit was reported to Knox County District Attorney General Randy Nichols, who reported it to the TBI.
In 2010, Nichols went to Baumgartner's house to check on him. Baumgartner blamed his actions on too much wine and having a problem sleeping.
Baumgartner's administrative assistant, Jennifer Judy, said as early as 2008, he was so impaired at times she told him he probably didn't need to be on the bench.
Judy passed Baumgartner a note during the Coleman trial when he slumped his head down. It said, "Sit up or get off the bench. You're disrespecting the families."
Baumgartner wrote back an expletive-filled note that he later didn't remember writing, the TBI file says.
Judy was asked to cash $100 checks for Baumgartner which he called his "running money." This once-a-week habit became a daily habit by 2009-2010. On one occasion she was asked to give a sealed letter to Castleman which she believed contained money.
Prosecutor Price told the TBI he believed Baumgartner was "possibly mentally impaired" during the Coleman trial.
In 2006, Castleman had called Baumgartner for a job after graduating from drug court. In 2008, she went by his office and he told her "that he loved his opiates," the TBI file says.
Baumgartner told Castleman he was taking hydrocodone for his toe, but had run out. He gave her $200 and asked her to get more.
Castleman was arrested shortly after this and wrote a letter to Baumgartner from jail. When she was released, the TBI said she went to the City County Building to meet him and their relationship became sexual.
Baumgartner wound up buying Castleman a phone and paying her utility bills. She told investigators they had sex three times in his chambers.
Castleman also said she stayed with Baumgartner in Chattanooga during jury selection for the Thomas trial.
Chris Gibson agreed to wear a wire during a taped conversation with Castleman when they discussed Baumgartner's drug use.
Castleman, 33, is currently being held in the Knox County Jail on charges out of Anderson County for aggravated burglary and theft, debit card fraud, simple possession of a controlled substance and DUI. She was denied bond.
Judge Blackwood said after outlining Baumgartner's actions, "I feel dirty."
Although Baumgartner pleaded guilty to official misconduct, "You don't wrap it up by saying misconduct," Judge Blackwood said. "He knew what he was doing was wrong, and all he did was hide it. I don't know if it's stupidity or arrogance, but I call it committing a crime."
Baumgartner was high on the bench, Judge Blackwood said, and asked, "Would you want your child to be tried by an intoxicated judge?" He added that Baumgartner was "taking the drug court and turning it into a party."
There is no other conclusion but that Baumgartner was operating on the bench as incapable since 2008, Judge Blackwood said.
Baumgartner "shouldn't have been on the bench in 2008," Judge Blackwood said. "Everything he's done since then, we're going to have to fight that battle."
Blackwood also said when he got the Christian-Newsom murders case, his first thought was that he had to save the verdicts. However, he concluded after reviewing the evidence, "I have a duty to the system."
The TBI file was too volatile to ignore, Blackwood said, and Baumgartner ran his ship to ground.
When court resumed after a break, Letalvis Cobbins stood and said he wanted to make a statement about being beaten in prison. Judge Blackwood said he didn't want to hear it and sent all four out of court.
After the hearing, Mary Newsom, the mother of murder victim Chris Newsom, said, "I was shocked. It was unbelievable. It was a lot worse than I had thought. We've wasted four years of our lives because of him. I feel like our kids have not received justice after five years."
Both families dread the nightmare of four new trials.
"I still don't see any reason why we should have to go through this again," said Channon Christian's mother, Deena Christian.
The victims' families agree that Judge Blackwood was left with little choice faced with the disturbing details of Baumgartner's drug addiction.
However, Gary Christian says Judge Blackwood's comment about detesting public humiliation really hit a nerve.
"I watched my family and friends go through four trials. Public humiliation? My daughter would be mortified if she was still with us, the pictures you and the public saw of her and what they did to her," Gary said.
Besides being disgusted by Baumgartner's actions, Gary Christian says he's furious at the doctors who were writing Baumgartner prescriptions and he thinks they shouldn't be allowed to practice anymore.
The dates for the new trials have not been set. The court is scheduled to hear motions on January 12.

So much fun!!
but way to easy, make the next ones harder :)
Rated 4.5 / 5 stars December 8, 2011
Great game!
That was a lot of fun to play! I had a good time with it. I like how when I died I didn't have to start over from the beginning, like I anticipated. It made the game easier, but I don't think it's a bad thing.
As whether or not to take away the slo-mo, no! don't do it! i thought that was the best part of the game, and it made things exciting. :)
i'm getting a pretty clear picture now that people don't want to rid with the slo-mo. seeing as how i was previously on the fence about this, thank you for the feedback!
Rated 4.5 / 5 stars December 7, 2011
was very simple, and very original.
great graphics, ans superb gameplay. please make the tutorials 8-)
as for the slo-mo: it's the one thing (besides storyline) that made this game worth it, so keeeep it! could be improved though: maybe some way of really dodging the shuriken; and disable it when the vertical distance is big (i.e. when you are on the ground and the projectile high up, for instance).
and also, make it longer, cause the game was really short
thank you thank you for the feedback. my takeaways: 1) make the tutorials; 2) keep the slo-mo, with improvements; 3) make the game longer. got it!
Rated 4.5 / 5 stars December 26, 2011
Very fun
I love how it turns into slow motion when the enemies throw ninja stars. I also enjoyed the ending. I hope part two is longer though, with an upgrade system! Overall, it's a fun game.

OAKLAND, Calif. -- Washington's beleaguered defence finally found an opponent it could bully around after its historically bad start to the season.
David Amerson returned an interception for a touchdown, the defence harassed Oakland backup quarterback Matt Flynn into seven sacks and the Redskins overcome an early 14-point deficit to beat the Oakland Raiders 24-14 Sunday for their first win of the season.
"We needed that so bad," defensive end Ryan Kerrigan said. "It really feels good. Seven was kind of the magic number today -- we give up only seven points, we have seven sacks, scored seven points on defence. Great feeling right now."
The Redskins (1-3) looked ready to extend the worst start for the franchise since 2001 when they fell behind 14-0 after the first quarter to the Raiders (1-3) on a blocked punt touchdown and a scoring pass from Flynn.
But the defence took over after that against a team missing starting quarterback Terrelle Pryor and without starting running backs Darren McFadden and Marcel Reece for much of the game.
Robert Griffin III threw a go-ahead touchdown pass late in the third quarter and Roy Helu Jr. iced the game with a 14-yard TD run in the fourth as the Redskins rallied from 14 points down after the first quarter to win on the road for just the second time since at least 1991.
"What we did when we were down 14-0, and that's what we've got to do the rest of the season," Griffin said.
After Griffin used the no-huddle offence to get Washington a field goal, Amerson got the Redskins back in the game when he stepped in front of Flynn's pass to Denarius Moore and ran it back 45 yards to cut Oakland's lead to 14-10.
"It almost seemed like one of those typical games, where you know, we're down 14 and 'Here we go,"' linebacker Brian Orakpo said. "Same thing, same story. Nobody could really get going but that pick-six was huge. Turnovers really play key in the outcome of the game."
The Oakland offence struggled to generate much of anything without its entire starting backfield and the Raiders lost a game they led by at least 14 points after the first quarter for the first time since 1998 against Kansas City.
"That one hurt, that one stung," coach Dennis Allen said. "I felt the way we were able to start out the game . get to 14-0 . then we let them back in the game. Give them credit, they continued to fight. But we didn't do enough to win the football game.
Flynn was sacked seven times, losing a fumble that set up Helu's TD that gave Washington a 24-14 lead midway through the fourth quarter.
Kerrigan forced the fumble on his second sack and Orakpo and Barry Cofield also brought down Flynn twice.
It was a rare good day for a Washington defence that allowed 1,464 yards of offence through three games -- the most through a team's first three games since the 1951 New York Yanks gave up 1,494, according to STATS LLC. The Yanks folded after that season.
Even the usually reliable Sebastian Janikowski was off his game for the Raiders, missing a 52-yard field goal attempt wide left midway through the third quarter after Logan Paulsen lost a fumble.
Alfred Morris, bottled up most of the game, had three carries for 29 yards on the ensuing drive before leaving with bruised ribs. Griffin capped it with a 5-yard slant to Pierre Garcon that gave the Redskins their first second-half lead of the season.
The Raiders didn't settle on a starting quarterback until Saturday night when it was determined Pryor could not go after sustaining a concussion last Monday in Denver.
Flynn got off to an early lead in his third career start with help from Oakland's special teams when Jeremy Stewart recovered Rashad Jennings' blocked punt of Sav Rocca in the end zone.
Flynn got into the act as well with an impressive 81-yard drive that featured a 34-yard pass to Denarius Moore and was capped by the 18-yard TD to rookie Mychal Rivera.
Washington's defence took over after that, harassing Flynn all afternoon.
"They definitely handle themselves back there differently," Raiders centre Stefen Wisniewski said. "So we have to try to block differently. It's tough to change at the drop of a hat, though. We found out last night we have a different quarterback so we have to adjust to that."
NOTES: Redskins LB London Fletcher played in his 244th consecutive regular-season game, passing Bill Romanowski for most by a defensive player since the 1970 merger. ... Flynn's seven sacks were the most for a Raiders QB since Andrew Walter was brought down nine times in 2006 at Seattle.

Indianapolis—Protesters showed up on the south steps of the Indiana Statehouse Wednesday, to rally against a controversial ruling by the Indiana Supreme Court. The ruling, which allows police to enter your home without a warrant, sparked threatening emails and phone calls from those angry with the court's decision.
Approximately 100 people particiapted in the rally. Opponents rallied against the ruling because they said it was overbroad and chipped away at the fourth amendment of the U.S. Constitution and its protections against illegal search and seizure.
"As citizens, it's our job to be ever vigilant against the government. It's the nature of government to grow to expand. Here today is where the people draw a line in the sand and say a boundary's been crossed and we're not gonna tolerate it," said rally organizer John Sheppard.
Opponents hope to defeat Supreme Court Justice Steven David for reappointment in 2012 and convince the court to either revisit its decision or have the Indiana General Assembly pass a law narrowing the right of officers to enter a home without a warrant. The Senate Majority Caucus has asked the court to grant a re-hearing for the purpose of clarifying its decision. The caucus claims the ruling may unintentionally erase hundreds of years of common law precedent on reasonable resistance and unlawful entry. Members of the Indiana General Assembly are also working on potential legislation to restore private property rights.

Nexus 5.
Made for what matters.
The slimmest and fastest Nexus smartphone ever made, powered by the new AndroidTM 4.4.2, KitKat®.
D820 T-Mobile BlackCOLOR : Black
- 8MP OIS camera with HDR+
- sophisticated high gloss front and matte soft-touch rear finish
- 2.26GHz quad-core processor with Android™ 4.4.2, KitKat®
Rated 4.4 out of 5 by 46 reviewers.
Rated 2 out of 5 by Joe1964 One major problem GLASS is broken after 2 weeks. Hello I don't recommend this cell phone for a big reason the glass has a defect, my screen cracked in one spot hairline fracture on the left side going to the ear pice. I am the most careful person with my phone and still this happened. The phone has never left its otter box like case either. Before this phone I had a nexus 4 for over a year just sold it never had any problems with it at all. August 8, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 Bang for your Buck! Very impressed with nexus 5 looks great, feels great, runs great. Love how smooth and fast it runs and the fact that there is no bloatware! Only negative, its not the best battery life but still should last almost a full day. But for this price you can't complain! June 26, 2014
Rated 3 out of 5 by atony323 OK phone if you don't need a great camera CONS: In my opinion - Kit Kat does not make up for some of the headaches I have with this phone.... Bluetooth for example - I loose my connection with the phone every once in awhile, too many times a day and right in the middle of a conversation while driving is VERY frustrating. That in itself makes me want to give the phone back to T-Mobile, AND I'm using an LG stereo Bluetooth headset, you'd think it would go hand in hand but it doesn't. Google update for this phone completely changed the CAMERA features. You no longer have settings for "Resolution", "Aspect Ratio" and "Video Quality"... *Current Camera resolution for the new Google camera on this phone is set at, does not display and no settings. *Aspect Ratio is set at 4:3 - NO longer do you have the option for 16:9 *Video Quality - ? Doesn't display what the quality will be - my guess is HD but does not a display for this. *Although NOW there is Photo Sphere with the new Google camera software but who really uses that? Voice Commands: Horrible.. An example would be "Call John Doe on mobile" it will do one of several things... 1. bring up all the Johns and ask you which John would you like me to call. Then you tell it and it will answer - "Which number would you like me to dial say "select 1. for mobile, select 2. for Home, or select 3. for work. You HAVE to say SELECT 1. then it will respond by saying Select 1 for mobile say OK or Cancel. You HAVE to say OK when prompted. In my opinion - WAY too many steps just to make a phone call while your driving and half the time is does not even get to the third step and responds by "can't understand selection" then you have to start all over - I'm half way to pick up John by the time I'm done. The old Google voice commands worked SO MUCH better than this! This is horrible! I've downloaded some apps to handle both the Camera and voice commands but you have to have those apps running in the background and don't work OVER Google software so you stuck using Google voice commands - if you know of one - PLEASE tell me! I got the 16GB, I work in the health field and have a huge patient database that I use with a patient database app - IT IS NOT enough memory to handle all that including photos, videos, etc... Your better of getting the 32GB but T-Mobile does not carry the 32GB. PROS: Phone is simple, easy to use, VERY FAST, no other software over the Google IOS Android Platform... So, if you can get passed the mediocre camera and don't need voice commands to make calls then you will enjoy having this phone, but if you want a better camera and do a lot of driving and need to place calls over your Bluetooth device - I would get another phone that can handle those things if they are that important to you. May 2, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 awesome The Nexus 5 is the best kept secret in the Android line. Full of performance with no added bloatware. If you want a no frills high quality phone this is it. CyanogenMod 11 ROM runs perfect on this device. June 13, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 Best Android phone I've had so far Pros: Images are very good and well-defined. Fast performance Good applications Cons: No battery access Cannot add an SD card April 23, 2014
Rated 1 out of 5 by ddeisla LCD Screen shatters. Expensive repair. No cases I was very happy with my Nexus 4, the features were enough for me, I check videos, listen to music and send emails etc. I droped probably 10 times and the screen never shatered on me so basically I was very happy with my nexus 4 this is why i made an upgrade to the 5. The very first week I was so happy, the phone performs amazingly fast... until I accidentally droped it in concrete about 2 feet height and the LCD screen completely shatered! I was trying to repair it but found out its 170dlls to repair (its a 300dll phone!!!) , Also, theres almost NO CASES AVAILABLE for this phone! and probably won't be because the screen shatters like its nothing. Word of advise... don't buy this, stay with your nexus 4 unless you are super careful not to drop the phone EVER, even with a case. April 23, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by NateM Battery lacking - great otherwise I with the battery life was much longer - but everything else works very well. I use this phone for development. June 6, 2014
Rated 4 out of 5 by Leonid Good phone. Nice phone. Very comfortable in hands. Sound not loud enough, cannot change battery and add memory April 29, 2014

MILWAUKEE, WI (WHBL) - Mistakes they usually don't make doomed the Wisconsin Badgers in their in-state rivalry game in Milwaukee against Marquette. Following the lead of Junior Cadougan, the Golden Eagles beat UW, 60-50, Saturday. The Badgers committed 14 turnovers, shot just 33 percent from the field and 39 percent from the free throw line. Marquette scored the first seven points of the game and never trailed, but the Badgers were able to pull close twice in the second half. In each case, Cadougan stepped up and helped his team maintain its lead. The senior point guard hit 7-of-10 shots, took down four rebounds and dished out a half-dozen assists, with only one turnover. The Badger offense was so anemic that nobody scored in double figures. Jared Berggren and Ryan Evans each scored nine points. Marquette's record improves to 6-2, while Wisconsin falls to 6-4.

Eat it to Save it
04 Apr 13
Sara Silvestri
When most people think of endangered species, images of giant pandas or snow leopards likely come to mind. It is less common that they have heard of the Zulu sheep or Ischian cave rabbits, and much less likely that they are concerned with their plight.
These domesticated species face different, but no less critical threats to their existence than the wild animals that are often at the heart of environmentalist causes. It might seem contradictory at first, but a solution to save these species from being lost forever, is to eat them more.
No one can deny that the consumption of meat and other animal-derived products is an act full of moral questions and consequences. Raising animals for food involves issues of health, welfare and the environment. However, farmers who raise breeds in their native climates, on native diets, and with the integrated use of manure as part of a more ecological agricultural system, not only raise healthy animals with less human intervention, they also actively contribute to the furthering of those species. In addition, these practices also support the plant species that such livestock consume.
The Italian Slow Food Sambucano Lamb Presidium is an excellent example of a breed-revival project that, in the past 25 years, has brought a local variety of livestock back from the brink of extinction. It has also reinvigorated the Stura di Demonte valley in Piedmont, by stimulating demand for specialty meat, milk, and wool products, and by creating new jobs in livestock, tourism, marketing, and education.
With other heritage breeds like Pineywoods cattle and Mora Romagnola pigs facing extinction within our lifetimes, we must respond to this imminent threat to our world's biodiversity. These animals and the farmers and ranchers who raise them must be supported, not just in an abstract, feel-good way, but economically. Increased consumer demand for these threatened species will support more ecologically sustainable farming and biodiversity, as well as gastronomic pleasure. The industrialization of food goes hand-in-hand with the homogenization of taste.
This use-it-or-lose-it concept goes beyond raw materials. In New Orleans, Slow Food activist Poppy Tooker used her "eat it to save it" campaign to revive interest in local products like Creole cream cheese and calas (rice fritters). Eating certain foods actively engages us in keeping culinary traditions alive. If particular types of cheeses or cured meats are no longer consumed, they may slowly be lost, but at least maintain the potential to be revived. In the case of livestock breeds, however, extinction is final.
People are not going to stop eating meat any time soon, but a renewed interest in heritage breeds and the more sustainable ways in which they are produced can be one small step towards the creation of an overall improved food system that promotes Slow Food's values of good, clean, and fair.
Find out more about Slow Food's work to protect endangered products, through the Slow Food Foundation for Biodiversity's projects.

What's Up with Spit Up?
Now that you know how to burp your baby the right way, here are a few things you should avoid at all costs when trying to ease reflux.
- Avoid putting pressure on your baby's tummy: If you place your child high on your chest, her tummy gets squished into your shoulder. This is a surefire way to cause the whole feeding to come up with the burp!
- Don't overfeed: Feeding your baby too much and too often can cause her to, quite literally, overflow. "Newborns sometimes take only two ounces or less," says Dr. LoFrumento, but as your baby continues to grow, she will require more food. Instead of following a rigid schedule for feeding, Dr. LoFrumento recommends you trust your instincts about what is the right amount of food your baby needs.
- Never hold your baby above your head: At least don't do this right after he or she has just eaten. "Gravity rules," reminds Dr. LoFrumento, and whatever is in your baby's tummy will want to come right out. It's best to keep your little one in an upright position and try not to jostle your baby around after feeding, since this can also cause spitting up.
Other Reflux Remedies
Burping is commonly thought of as the one and only cure for spitting up, yet there are a few tricks parents can adhere to that reduce a little one's air intake and need to burp.
"Some ways to prevent spitting up are to feed the baby in a mostly upright position, leaning the baby to his or her left," says Dr. Shubin. This method works well in adults with acid reflux problems, too.
If your baby doesn't seem to be keeping much of his feedings down, there are products available that thicken the feedings. Thicker material in the stomach tends to stay in the stomach, says Dr. Shubin. One formula thickener on the market is called Enfamil-AR, and it works by having a liquid consistency until it touches stomach acid and then thickens.
If none of these methods work, your doctor may prescribe anti-reflux medication that helps keep your baby's feedings in her tummy where they belong.
Spitting Up and Health Concerns
Although spitting up is a common occurrence in babies, it has the potential of becoming a health concern—such as when babies have gastroesophageal reflux disease, also known as GERD. This condition causes babies to spit up nearly all of their feedings. Because of this, infants who suffer from GERD have irritation of the esophagus and lack the nutrition they need to grow and be healthy. Doctors typically prescribe anti-acid medications and thickened feeding formulas for such cases to combat the excessive spitting up. Fortunately this condition is not common and is easy to treat.
The vast majority of babies who spit up do not have serious health problems and are just going through a normal stage of childhood. As long as the baby is keeping in more than he or she is spitting up, all should be well. If you're concerned, pay a visit to your child's doctor to discuss the reflux. Just remember to bring an extra change of clothing whenever you go out—for parents and Baby!

Closet cleaning sale
Cleaning out my closet. If you're interested, then email me at firstname.lastname@example.com. I take PayPal and ship via USPS priority flat rate.
Nick Hilton harrington jacket: size medium, olive green cotton with plaid lining. Fits more like a size 40 chest (possibly up to 42). Back vented, elasticated cuffs and hem. No stains, rips or holes. Three interior pockets (two zip close for security) and two front button pockets. No fabric tag, but it's a heavier cotton twill (much like a pair of washed chinos). Great and cheap fall or spring casual jacket.
Bought off someone on StyleForum B&S but the sizing is just too large for me (a 38R). $40 shipped.
Baracuta G9 harrington jacket: Size 38, original fit, olive green cotton shell with 65/35 poly/viscose lining. Back vented, elasticated cuffs and hem. Double-zip front and one interior button pocket. Two front button pockets. No rips or holes.
Slight stains (see photos below) on the collar and left sleeve. Original owner on eBay didn't mention it to me, but I didn't think it worth the time to complain, because the rest of the jacket is in great, like-new condition.
Selling because sleeves are too short for me (I have 35"-long sleeves in dress shirts, for reference) by about an inch or so. If you're a true 38R off the rack and don't need the sleeves of most suit jackets let out, then you should be fine. $125 shipped.
Harris Tweed blazer: Size 38L (based on my personal measurements, no tag). A blend of colors: brown, tan, grey, navy, etc. Two interior pockets, flapped front pockets. Center vented, single-breasted, two-button front. Half-lined. Moderate lapels and boutonniere hole. No maker tag, but has Harris Tweed tag on the inside and union-made in the U.S.A. label. Measurements follow:
- Across shoulders: 17.5"
- Pit-to-Pit: 19.5" (ie: 39")
- Waist: 18" (ie: 36")
- Base of collar to hem: 31.5"
- Sleeve from shoulder to cuff: 26.5" (cannot be let out)
Jacket fits a bit on the slim side. If you're a 38L, this is for you (sadly, I'm a 38R). I half considered paying to have the jacket shortened, but it was cost prohibitive for me. $50 shipped.

Bon Jovi bumped Carrie Underwood down and rocked their way to the top of the Billboard Top 200 Albums chart with The Circle in a week that is pretty much the calm before the high-profile release storm. But—yeeowch!—the 163,000 copies the New Jersey band moved over the seven days sales were tracked is quite a dip from the 292,000 their last set, Lost Highway, did.
Alt rock act Flyleaf also debuted in the Top 10 (#8) with Memento Mori, but, really, all eyes are clearly looking ahead to next week's chart battle between Kris Allen, Justin Bieber, Leona Lewis, Katy Perry, 50 Cent, John Mayer, Norah Jones and OneRepublic. (And, in a perfect world, Annie's Don't Stop would factor into that mix, too!)
Meanwhile, the gauntlet appears to have already been thrown down by Canadian pop munchkin Bieber, based on this classy tweet he launched over to John Mayer:

Elsewhere, the Alicia Keys machine continues to steamroll its way over the pop landscape. Billboard also reports that Jay-Z and Keys have simultaneously landed their fourth #1 singles on the Hot 100 with "Empire State Of Mind." The full tally won't be released until tomorrow.

Julie Buntin is the literary events coordinator at powerHouse Arena, where she curates, manages, and publicizes between 15 and 20 book events a month. Previously she worked for the NYU Creative Writing Program as the reading series assistant, helping select fiction readers, write introductions, and tame a finicky audio system. As a co-curator of the KGB Emerging Writers Reading Series in 2010, she worked with writers like Anne Enright, Chad Harbach, Nick Flynn, and many, many more. After work, you can find her writing freelance book reviews for Publishers Weekly, reading like a maniac, and obsessing over her novel. Julie is finishing up her MFA fiction thesis at NYU. Her prose can be found in Sonora Review and Explosion-Proof, and she is an editor-at-large at Bodega Magazine.
powerHouse Arena is Togather's downstairs neighbor in Dumbo, so we met up with Julie over lunch to talk about punk rock posters, unlikely author pairings, how bringing two disparate audiences together can lead to a really amazing event, and how not to pitch your event to her. ("I think my friends might come" is a no-no.)
Togather: Are there any events you've done in the past few months that really stand out?Julie: Food events! I dunno what it is about books and drinking, but food helps and alcohol is pretty much a must. Preferably a lot, and preferably with an inventive or thematic twist. If your novel is full of whiskey drinkers, let's serve whiskey cocktails instead of white wine. We just did a great food event for Valentine's Day—"The Valentine's Day Cookie Swap" we called it. It featured Smitten Kitchen blogger Deb Perelman, and Adam Roberts who wrote a cookbook called Secrets of the Best Chefs, plus the guys from Baked and Dawn Casale from One Girl Cookies. They brought cookies, and most of the audience brought cookies, and we set up a huge table. Everyone just filled a take home container with a sampling of different cookies. And people really represented! All the hardcore home cooks of New York brought fancy cookie masterpieces and there was a great conversation about the New York food scene and things the author/chefs had baked in the past, and then we had a signing.
I also love when you meet a super famous or super literary author, and realize how intensely charming and down to earth they can be. We had David Mitchell here in October—Tea Obreht was interviewing him about the Cloud Atlas film adaptation—they had the room wrapped around their fingers. Both writers understood that the audience was there to get something they couldn't get from reading the book alone—the chance to experience a favorite author's personality.
Togather: So it was almost more of a social thing?Julie: Definitely. I love booking events that aren't straight readings and Q&As. If it's a discussion with a multimedia element where you have a slideshow with images or you have a book trailer that you can show, it helps engage a crowd. Adam Mansbach, who wrote a terrific book called Rage is Back, had a wonderful launch where he had his cover designer, Blake Lethem, do a graffiti installation on our gallery wall. DJ J.PERIOD made a playlist inspired by Adam's book, and he came and live DJ'd the evening.
I also like when disparate writers are brought together. Last Friday we had A.S. Byatt in conversation with Tracy K. Smith and Leonard Lopate moderated. It was a collision of two different literary spheres—on the one hand, the author of an elegiac Pulitzer winning book of poems, and on the other, a Man-Booker winner known for writing sprawling academic novels. People come to an event like that and wonder why the writers are together. It was so exciting to watch Smith and Byatt interact, and see the connections between their books and writing philosophies come forth via conversation. Plus hardcore A.S. Byatt fans were buying Tracy's book, and vice versa, so lots of people left having discovered a new author.
Togather: How did you go about booking something like that? Julie: For that event both writers were affiliated with Rolex, which has an arts and mentorship initiative. But in some cases if an author wants to have an event but has another event somewhere else in the city—say, Center For Fiction—the question is "what can you bring to this event that makes it different than that one?" Do you have a friend who does something a little bit to the left of what you do? Having another writer is good, but if you get your best friend who just wrote a coming of age novel and you just wrote a coming of age novel and they are both literary fiction, maybe that's not going to create the most dynamic conversation. Sometimes it might, but in terms of getting an audience or expanding upon an audience that's built in… what if you had a sportswriter talk to you about baseball if that's a big part of your book?Togather: I like that idea of creating these unlikely pairings. Julie: Yeah, and I love to get a media person—someone from Tin House or Paris Review or n+1—to moderate. If you're an author try to get someone to interview you who has a following or has connections to a social media channel. Togather: How do you publicize your events? What's the process like to get the word out about an event like that?Julie: We send out a newsletter every week that highlights six or seven upcoming events. We sent one out right before I came here and the RSVP section of my inbox fills up immediately after that. And then of course we do Facebook and Twitter and Tumblr. I send out a listing release, which is basically a press release for the event, to a slew of contacts that are tailored to what the event is—so if I'm doing a kids event I send it to my kids list, if it's a literary thing I'll send it to MFA programs. I do that four weeks before and two weeks before an event. And if it's something that I really want to get traction, I'll just email someone I know at New York Magazine or my contact at Time Out New York.We worked with Brandon Stosuy at Pitchfork—he moderated the Peter Hook [bassist from Joy Division and New Order] event we did. We're doing this really cool book launch for Quirk Books, it's this book called Swissted, which is by a designer named Mike Joyce that did a Swiss-inspired mashup of punk bands as posters. I thought, the Pitchfork people would like this. So I sent it to them and asked if they could tweet about it. Basically you just need to be an advocate for every event and rely on word of mouth as much as you can.Togather: Speaking of word of mouth, if I'm a new author who wants to speak at your store, how should I go about contacting you? What advice would you give to someone to help get the word out?Julie: I would encourage new authors to be organized! I can't tell you how many times I get half-baked pitches. As an event planner, I care about each event, but I have trouble getting behind something if someone emails me and says that they could "maybe get this contributor from my book" and "what if there was beer?" and "I think my friends will come." Instead of being unsure you should treat it very seriously: write down how many people you are expecting, what your goals are for the event. Let me know what your programming will be. Are you going to read or talk about your book or do something more than that? Where are you doing events and where have you done other events? What kind of social media presence do you have? A lot of authors will come to me and give me a book and say "my book just came out I'd love to do stuff at your store!" But what they don't realize is they just gave me a ton of work. If you're not going through a publicist, then I want the event proposal to be very clean and detailed as possible. Togather: What do you personally look for in a book event? Something that you might go to outside of work. Julie: I want an event to surprise me. There are so many things to do in New York—why would I go to your book event unless I love your book already, or I know you, or you have food or drinks or music or a dynamic moderator or another element to capture my imagination?

These may not be the best earbuds for audio purists, but the Maximo iM-490S iMetal Isolation Earphones should please bass addicts after inexpensive sound isolation.
The Maximo iMetal iM-590 earphones offer a super comfortable fit and plenty of features for the money; although the sound quality is not the best, this set is a good step up from stock earbuds.
Lenovo might have bought Motorola, but it's still making own-brand mobiles, with three new phones on show at MWC.

We preview the Samsung DVD-HD860 upscaling DVD player.
If you're an iPod Nano user who likes to pack light and thin, most certainly check out the nice-looking and -sounding Altec Lansing iM500 speaker system.
The Altec Lansing iM7 offers good sound quality, flexible listening options, and handy features, making it a solid choice for any iPod owner in the market for a complementary sound system.
The Altec Lansing iM4 finally delivers the bass we've been craving in small portable speakers, and they're not iPod-centric, so you can use them with any MP3 player.
This portable speaker set will mesh well with your iPod, but there are better-sounding alternatives.
The Samsung Caliber is a fairly good touch-screen feature phone for MetroPCS customers.

The Vikings have made another shuffle on the practice squad. This one actually makes sense considering the depth in the secondary. Minnesota has waived offensive tackle Jamaal Johnson-Webb and signed cornerback Kip Edwards.
Edwards was an undrafted rookie who has played for both the Cleveland Browns and the Buffalo Bills. He possesses the size and speed that is somewhat ideal for a cornerback in the NFL. At 6'1″ and 200 pounds, he is an intimidating defender. During his NCAA play at Missouri, he became known for his physical play that intimidated the wide receivers on opposing teams.
This is a great opportunity for Edwards. Minnesota is a team where a young, inexperienced cornerback could be able to make an impression on the coaching staff and be elevated to the regular roster because of a lack of depth.

Round diamonds are, by far, the most popular and sought-after diamond shape on the market today. Their timeless beauty and universal appeal make them the best option for many consumers looking to purchase an engagement ring. The first thing to consider when looking at a diamond image is the overall appearance. In many diamonds, you will see eight arrows branching from the center. Diamonds in the Ideal or True Hearts cut grades are the top diamond cuts offered on James Allen Jewelers. They have the properties required to offer the best light return, fire and brilliance, and are our customer's first choice in diamonds.
Round diamonds are cut to hide color and conceal many inclusions, so they are also the shape that many consumers purchase in the SI clarity and I-J color ranges. This works well for people on a budget, as they can get larger carat weight diamonds without sacrificing appearance, and are the most prevalent choice for engagement rings.
A marquise-cut diamond is considered a classic diamond shape because it compliments any engagement ring. When selecting a marquise diamond, color and clarity are the two most important aspects to consider. A marquise diamond is cut in a way that is similar to a round brilliant diamond, except the carat weight of the stone is maximized by lengthening it into its highly recognizable boat-shape. Unfortunately, because marquise-cut diamonds have such a distinctive elongated shape, imperfections and flaws are more pronounced than they are in traditional round brilliant diamonds.

Tips from the Coupon Queen
The 'dark side' of couponing
Jill Cataldo is responsible for this content, which is not edited by the Wilson County News or wilsoncountynews.com.
December 14, 2010

Post a comment
Q: "I am a cashier in a grocery store and am writing to you about the dark side of coupon use. You don't have a concept of the abuse we go through daily at the hands of our coupon-clipping customers.
I am amazed at the number of people who feel it's acceptable to make copies of Internet coupons and try to pass them off as legitimate. Clipping off an expired expiration date, then screaming at the cashier because she won't take it is also unacceptable. Tying up a checkout lane so you can buy 75 jars of spaghetti sauce with coupons is rude to other shoppers. Calling our corporate office because the cashier would not accept 30 of the same bread coupons, when each coupon states, 'One per customer.' Your phone call just put a single mother out of work, even though she was correct in not allowing you to use those coupons.
"Jill, don't you think you have a responsibility to teach people not to abuse couponing? Saving money becomes like a drug to some people. They will do anything for it."
A: I've always strived to be one of the most ethical coupon teachers working today. I encourage honest, courteous, and respectful use of coupons. Coupon shoppers can get fantastic deals at the supermarket without resorting to unethical behavior. In the years I've been blogging about coupon deals at
, there has never been a single week without one hot coupon deal or another. The deals just keep coming, week after week.
And I'm really not a "crazy coupon clipper." You won't see me clearing shelves or tying up a checkout lane with a cartful of identical items. I buy what I need for my family and I buy a little more to support my local food pantry. I'm proud to use coupons correctly, and I implore all of my students to do the same.
It's never right to make a photocopy of any coupon. It is never correct to cut the expiration date off a coupon, hoping to use it after it's expired. When the store tries to redeem photocopies or expired coupons, they're unable to. Dishonest coupon shoppers are stealing. The misuse of coupons is a form of shoplifting. These shoppers take groceries for which the store will never be reimbursed. I do not condone this behavior and I address the issue regularly.
Couponing can be an addiction. Some shoppers feel it necessary to chase around town to multiple stores, getting every possible deal they can. Others obsess over store flyers leaked online weeks in advance, ordering 50 or more identical coupons from a clipping service after they spot a hot deal. Then, the day the deal hits, they're at the store when it opens, buying, as you said, 75 jars of spaghetti sauce, because they have that many coupons and feel compelled to use every single one of them.
These shoppers take things to the extreme, especially when they clear shelves and are rude to other shoppers in the process. Stores can and should reserve the right to limit quantities to shoppers and part of a cashier's job, of course, is to ensure that the coupons a shopper presents are valid. But a shopper who's aggressive to a cashier and makes false reports to a corporate office is out of line, especially if someone loses a job over the issue.
Next week, we'll continue discussing this topic, and I'll share some warning signs that a shopper may be a little too obsessed with coupons.

I think the one thing I truly wasn't prepared for going into student teaching (finished my first full week Friday) was the lack of "me" time. I'm either at school, asleep, or wishing I was asleep during the weekdays.
Don't get me wrong - I love it so far. I can see where I have so much to learn and a lot of growing to do. But somehow I need to find time for reflection. I'd really like to be more active on this tumblr posting wise, though I know I probably won't have the time to actively participate with my dashboard.
Oh work/life balance.

Triumph's Bonneville ruled the roads during the 1960s and no modern motorcycle replicates so closely the style and experience of those golden years than the modern day Bonneville T100. With its traditional wire wheels and coachlined two-tone paintwork, the Bonneville T100 looks like
it could have been built in 1969. But look closer and you will see a modern machine dripping with authentic touches only Triumph can deliver.
The bike is powered by a 865cc parallel twin-cylinder engine that delivers 66 HP at 7500rpm, with peak torque of 69Nm delivered at 5800rpm.
The 2011 T100 features peashooter silencers, classic two-tone color options and spoked steel wheels. The two-tone color options complement the traditional Bonneville styling and have the added touch of gold or silver coachlines, painted by hand just as they always have been. Three regular options are available: Phantom Black with Fusion White, Forest Green with New England White and the new Vintage Cream and Chocolate. The popular single color Jet Black option is also available and comes with matching black-finished engine cases.
