The Cheesemonger: Forsterkase
It's hard to believe we've never spoken — not even once — of this cheese, with an appearance almost as arresting as its flavor. It carries a hefty stink and an equally substantial creaminess, an ideal pick for the fall and winter. But what's that name all about, and why does it have a brown band around its middle?
Forsterkase (pronounced for-ster-kaz-uh) means "lumberjack cheese," which refers to its thick outer circumference of pine, which harks back to a time when plastic forms weren't available to give cheese proper shape. Creative, they are, the Swiss who make it, and for that we're grateful; the bark they use imparts an unmistakable rusticity as it ages, penetrating the interior and making itself known, in pleasant contrast to its rich milkiness.
The cheese makes a good story, too, since only one creamery produces it, an aberration in an industry that favors mass production and standardization. You'll find the creamery in Toggenburg, northeast of Zurich, but we'll refer to it as Cow Country because grass is abundant and rolling, and wide plains abound, leaving plenty of room for cows to graze and wander. You'll find that sheep and goat cheeses are more often produced in marginal environmental climates, with rocky or hilly topography.
Made from raw milk, it's aged by superstar affineur Rolf Beeler, who we've praised before in our profile of Tomme Vaudoise. During its aging the wheels are washed in brine, inspiring the proliferation of smelly little b-linen bacteria that make stinky cheeses the way they are.
At its best, and thanks to Rolf it should be just that, a wheel will be soft and unctuous, much like the picture above. Don't let its oozing interior fool you-- this isn't mild or innocuous like a brie. Expect earthy, woodsy flavors, and resounding notes of pine. This is a serious cheese, and could easily stand alone as a centerpiece on your cheese board for an appetizer, surrounded by hazelnuts, some fig cake, and your favorite most robust brew.
You can find Forsterkase at Formaggio Kitchen for $33/pound or at Murray's Cheese for for $25.99/pound. Be sure to be a smart cheese shopper, though. We saw this cheese retailing for upwards of $40/lb!

That photo is the ultimate in food porn, Nora! Great piece.. I'm having a bit of Forsterkase's big brother, Beeler's Vacherin Fribourgeois tonight!
We just got this in our shop today--per my special request. Actually, what we got is Forsterkase BERGFICHTE which is actually the same cheese but from the guy who split off from the original creamery and is making his version; virtually the same. Stinkiest cheese we have in the shop now, but delightful flavor!

Dr. Bill Greer inaugurated as Milligan's 15th president
MILLIGAN COLLEGE, Tenn. (Oct. 28, 2011)—Dr. Bill Greer was inaugurated as Milligan College's 15th president in a formal installation service on Friday, Oct. 28, in Milligan's Mary B. Martin Auditorium of Seeger Memorial Chapel.
Greer's inaugural address was a celebration of Milligan's history and a glimpse of his vision for its future. In his remarks, he recognized the work of his predecessors, Dr. Marshall Leggett and Dr. Don Jeanes, Milligan's 13th and 14th presidents.
"I'm eager for us to work together as a community to establish a vision for Milligan that builds upon the firm foundation that has been laid by Dr. Jeanes, Dr. Leggett, and the leaders who came before them," Greer said in his address. "I do know, however, that there are three things that must remain central to Milligan College as we serve our students — we must always maintain excellence in scholarship, an emphasis on community and a dependence on faith."
His address also outlined goals for each of these three initiatives—scholarship, community and faith.
"My vision for Milligan College is that in the area of scholarship, we will continue to build our academic reputation both regionally and nationally," Greer said. "In the area of community, we will build an even stronger sense of Christian and collegiate community. And in the area of faith, we will continue to change lives and shape culture through a commitment to Christian leadership."
In attendance at the ceremony were delegates from more than 50 educational institutions and associations, including representatives from local institutions and others throughout the country such as Yale University and Harvard Law School.
U.S. Senator Lamar Alexander delivered the keynote address. The ceremony also included words of greeting from several dignitaries and special guests, including U.S. Rep. Phil Roe, representing the first congressional district of Tennessee.
In addition, the congregation joined in singing an inaugural hymn written for the occasion by Dr. Lee Magness, Milligan's Vera Britton Professor of Bible. Magness wrote the words of the hymn he titled "Fide et Amore: Go with God in Faith and Love," based on a Latin phrase from the seal of the college that has had historical significance at Milligan.
Greer was named the 15th president of Milligan on March 18, 2011, and assumed office on July 16, 2011, following the retirement of Dr. Donald Jeanes. Greer most recently served as vice president for institutional advancement at Milligan and before that served for 12 years as a member of the college's faculty and as chair of the business area.
Greer is a 1985 Milligan graduate and completed an MBA from East Tennessee State University. He holds a Ph.D. in economics from the University of Tennessee – Knoxville. His areas of academic interest include monetary/macroeconomic theory and the history of economic thought. His book "Ethics and Uncertainty" examined the role of uncertainty in economic theory as viewed from the contrasting perspectives of John Keynes and Frank Knight, a 1911 Milligan alumnus.
As founding director, Greer led the efforts to develop and establish Milligan's Master of Business Administration program, a program built upon the philosophy of ethical decision making from a Christian perspective. Greer is also a member of the Messiah College International Business Institute faculty, teaching comparative economics in Eastern and Western Europe as part of the Institute's summer program. Greer's prior experience includes positions with a large food processor (Pet Dairy/Land-O-Sun Dairies) and an appliance motor manufacturer (Morrill Motors).
Greer serves on several corporate and community boards, including the board of visitors for the Bill Gatton College of Pharmacy at East Tennessee State University, the finance committee and the compliance and audit committee of Mountain States Health Alliance, the board of directors of Blue Ridge Medical Management Corporation, and the Johnson City-Jonesborough-Washington County Chamber of Commerce board of directors. He is a member of the Johnson City Rotary.
Greer's wife, First Lady Edwina Greer, also a Milligan alumna, presented the presidential robe to her husband during the inaugural ceremony. The Greers' two sons, Logan and Jeremy, both Milligan students, participated in the inauguration as the bearers of Milligan's banners.
There will be an open reception for the Greers on Saturday, Oct. 29, from 5:30 to 6:30 p.m. in Milligan's Gregory Center for the Liberal Arts. The public is invited to visit with the Greers and view a display of more than 130 congratulatory greetings from institutions and associations nationwide.

You probably know him as "Pinhead" or the Lead Cenobite in Clive Barker's 1987 debut Hellraiser. His amazing performance thrilled genre fans around the globe and made Pinhead a horror sensation. However, Mr. Bradley is also a genuine fan of classic and gothic horror, and produces a series of audiobooks with readings of Lovecraft, Poe, Bierce, Doyle, and more. We will also be showing his short film/dramatic reading of Lovecraft's "The Outsider" with a Q&A, and he's promised to thrill us by doing a live reading of Lovecraft, in that way that only Doug Bradley can read it.
Doug Bradley joins a host of wonderful guests this year that include Kenneth Hite (author of Where the Deep Ones Are and Cthulhu 101), Sandy Petersen (creator of The Call of Cthulhu RPG and Cthulhu Wars boardgame), Michael Cisco (author of The Divinity Student), S.T. Joshi (Lovecraft scholar and author of I Am Providence: The Life and Times of H.P. Lovecraft), Robert M. Price (Lovecraftian scholar and editor of Crypt of Cthulhu), Joe S. Pulver (author of The Orphan Palace), Allen Koszowski (prolific illustrator, Weird Tales, Asimov's), and many more! Read more

Don't miss the US premiere of Dead Shadows at the H.P. Lovecraft Film Festival in Portland, OR, April 11-13, 2014. Directed by David Cholewa, this amazing film is filled with action, mutations, and a mysterious meteor that kicks of the mayhem! Dead Shadows has had a perilous journey for the last two years, with showings at European and UK film festivals, but it has only recently found US distribution, where it is going straight to home DVD later this year. But before that happens, come see Dead Shadows on the big 60ft screen here in Portland, and be among the only folks in the US to see this Lovecraftian spectacle on the big screen. See, we are the only Festival that understands! Read more
We are extremely pleased to announce our first Lovecraftian Micro Fiction Contest!
Lovecraft himself wrote some extremely short fiction. "Memory," "What the Moon Brings," and "Ex Oblivione" are examples. Micro Fiction is a fun way to explore a genre or topic in a challenging way.
Can you write a complete story in this limited amount of space? By complete story, we mean a character, situation, beginning, middle, and end. Not a vignette, not a character study, but a story. Yes? Then enter our first annual Lovecraftian Micro Fiction Contest! Click here for full details. Read more
Last year, we created our very first Kickstarter, and your participation made the 2013 festival one of the most memorable experiences ever, both for us and for all of you! So, we've decided to do it again!
Last year, mostly because of the Kickstarter, we were able to show you Nightbreed: The Cabal Cut, introduce you to brilliant director Richard Stanley (and his amazing stories of living on a haunted Earth), bring Sandy Petersen to Portland to talk about games and movies (did you see his pre-Kickstarter Cthulhu Wars demo?), add a new gaming dimension to the festival, and pack more films and panels into the weekend than one person could experience... well, unless you were one of the critters using brain-swapping machinery and time travel.
Besides helping us raise necessary funds to properly plan the festival, Kickstarter did two very awesome things. It motivated us to offer really unique experiences to the community, and as a result it also enhanced the festival, creating a new kind of event where audience members took part in stage productions, helped us judge award-winning films, played Call of Cthulhu with the man who created it, and even appeared on screen and in fictions published in the Daily Lurker newspaper. It really helped us to get to know our community better, encourage audience interaction, and, in general, motivated us to up our game to a new level, all of which made the festival really exciting, not just for us, not just for our backers, but for everyone who attended. It was a real learning experience, too. We think we did some stuff well, and other stuff not so well (like opening the doors on Friday night or having all the backer rewards ready at the festival), but there is no doubt, Kickstarter made the whole festival awesome.
We've been working hard for the last several months, and we have some big announcements coming up. We've already talked Kenneth Hite (author of Cthulhu 101, Tour de Lovecraft, Where the Deep Ones Are, and the Trail of Cthulhu game) into being our Guest of Honor, and we're expanding our CthulhuCon activities to include open gaming, a new art show and artist's alley, author signing events, and much more. That's just the start though, and a lot of it is still super secret. You may be asking yourself "What is that violet light?" or "What do the words, 'Carb Loading for Cthulhu' mean?" Soon... soon it will all be revealed.
Our 2014 Kickstarter launches this month, with new exclusive backer-only merchandise, VIP access, and even cooler unique experiences than last year! To make sure you get an early crack at any limited reward levels, click here to sign up for our low-volume mailing list. Read more

"A versatile side or main course, black bean soup is a classic dish from Cuba that is enjoyed throughout Latin America and the Caribbean. Black bean soup recipes allow for great versatility as a soup that stands alone or poured over rice for an elegant and unexpectedly flavorful main course. Our GOYA® Cuban Black Bean Soup packs a delicious, seasoned bite that won't overwhelm the satisfying texture of our naturally low-fat beans."

This was so easy to make and such a hit in my house that definitely will make it again, but Next time, i have to double the recipe since there wasn't a bean left in the pot!
Yummy! Made this last night, was very easy to prepare and not time-consuming which I like. A very healthy recipe even though it is incredibly filling. Would also be good with shredded chicken.

a great way to use black beans
I chose to puree the soup for a smooth consistency and we loved it. I also added a bit of spice with some chipotles in adobo.
Great recipe! I added everything to fresh beans and it turned out great. I did thicken a bit with flour and water, but all in all, I will use this recipe again.
Absolutely Delicious and so easy to make!!! Love this recipe! I added chopped green pepper, tomato and jalapeno to mine.
I also added some pico de gallo with the extra onion and cilantro. Very easy and turned out great!

GREEN BAY, WI (WTAQ) - Five people have pled guilty in connection with a large-scale marijuana growing operation near Lakewood.
Authorities say they arrested 7 people after discovering over 8,400 marijuana plants in August, which would have a street value of millions of dollars.
All but one of the suspects were in the country illegally. They would serve their prison time before possible deportation proceedings would begin.
According to online federal court records, the 5 who pleaded guilty will be sentenced to between 10 years and life in prison. Those hearings start in January. They are: Jose Alfredo Sierra-Aguilar, Pedro Infante-Ramirez, Guillermo Chavez-Carrion, Miguel Sanchez-Garcia and Maria Blanca Garcia.
Trial for a sixth suspect, Juan Carlos Cervantes Contreras, is set for January 15. A seventh subject, Jose Luis Sanchez, is listed as having a trial date Tuesday, but court officials say that will not happen. No other court dates for him are scheduled.

Two dedicated correlation engines and purpose-built performance — Advanced Correlation Engine supplements McAfee Enterprise Security Manager event correlation with a risk detection engine that generates a risk score using rule-less risk score correlation, and a threat detection engine that detects threats using traditional rule-based event correlation.
Processing power to support rich event correlation across your enterprise — The standalone Advanced Correlation Engine scales to accommodate even the largest networks.
Alerts and real-time risk assessment — Identify an asset (users or groups, applications, specific servers, or subnets) and Advanced Correlation Engine alerts you if the asset is threatened. Audit trails and historical replays support forensics, compliance, and rule tuning.
Threat identification and scoring — Advanced Correlation Engine deploys alongside McAfee Enterprise Security Manager to identify and score threat events in real time using both rule- and risk-based logic.
Deploy McAfee Advanced Correlation Engine in either real-time or historical modes. In real-time mode, Advanced Correlation Engine analyzes events as they are collected for immediate threat and risk detection. You get rule-based correlation of real-time event data for detection of threats as they occur or rule-less correlation of real-time event data for detection of threats as they develop.
Provide impeccable modeling of your organizations risks by scoring attributes that matter. Develop a baseline and send notifications when normal thresholds are exceeded.
Use both correlation engines simultaneously to detect risks and threats before they occur, so you can use risk scores within traditional correlation logic.
Deploy Advanced Correlation Engine in historical mode and you can replay any historical data set through the traditional and rule-less correlation engines.
Scalable deployment options — Hybrid delivery choices include physical and virtual appliances.

Built for big security data, McAfee Global Threat Intelligence for McAfee Enterprise Security Manager (ESM) puts the power of McAfee Labs directly into the security monitoring flow using McAfee's high-speed, highly intelligent security information and event management (SIEM) solution.
The security information and event management (SIEM) market is defined by the customer's need to analyze security event data in real time for internal and external threat management, and to collect, store, analyze and report on log data for regulatory compliance and forensics. The vendors that are included in Gartner's analysis have technologies that have been designed for this purpose, and they actively market and sell these technologies to the security buying center.
The Cologne Bonn Airport is optimizing its IT security with the help of the SIEM solution from McAfee.
McAfee integrates NitroSecurity products into its portfolio, improving its SIEM offering.
Texas Tech University Health Sciences Center (TTUHSC) offers programs in medicine, nursing, pharmacy, biomedicine and health sciences.
Volusion creates comprehensive and scalable security and compliance strategies with McAfee SIEM.
Wüstenrot selected McAfee ESM model ETM-4600-ELM. With the ability to log at least 1,000 events per second (EPS), McAfee ESM was the ideal choice to meet Wüstenrot's requirements.

Broad adoption of SIEM technology is being driven by the need to detect threats and breaches, as well as by compliance needs. Early breach discovery requires effective user activity, data access and application activity monitoring. Vendors are improving threat intelligence and security analytics. Leading analyst firm Gartner has placed McAfee as a Leader in the Magic Quadrant for Security Information and Event Management.

This report takes a candid look at triggers for considering a new security management platform, walking through each aspect of the decision, and presenting a process to migrate.
With the advent of big data, traditional SIEM solutions that focus only on logging and compliance reporting fall short of the demands of today's enterprises for threat intelligence, correlation, and remediation. McAfee Enterprise Security Manager, the core of the McAfee SIEM solution, is both smart and fast. Its proprietary information management back end, purpose-built for managing big data, offers the critical combination of intelligence and speed.
This solution guide addresses the importance of implementing a strategic security and risk management program focused on prevention and protection, reducing incidents and risks across the enterprise, across every device, and across the entire IT infrastructure.
McAfee Enterprise Security Manager offers the advanced scalability, flexibility, and control you need to protect your customers' business, and grow yours.
The McAfee SIEM solution, Enterprise Security Manager, addresses today's complex compliance challenges by combining an established unified compliance framework with superior abilities to collect, retrieve, and protect the data required to assess and demonstrate compliance in real time. It's tightly integrated log collection, management, analysis, and reporting improves an organization's ability to meet compliance requirements through frameworks, streamlined workflow, and automation.
McAfee spoke with SIEM users and asked them to tell us about their primary issues with SIEM. This brief lists the top five issues along with corresponding customer case studies and use cases.
McAfee enables enterprises to collect, analyze, and preserve security forensic information. With a solution that includes content- and context-aware SIEM, McAfee provides alerts to security events, as well analysis on how the attacked occurred, affected users, and compromised data — so you can better understand the severity of a security breach.
The McAfee solution has two primary components: McAfee ePolicy Orchestrator (McAfee ePO) software and McAfee Enterprise Security Manager, with additional integrations to extend visibility and control across the entire security and compliance management environment.
SANS recently surveyed incident response (IR) teams to get a clearer picture of what they're up against today. The results are in; most organizations lack formalized IR plans, they expressed a need to collect and correlate threat intelligence and SIEM tools are their focus for improving IR capabilities.
This paper will walk you through the entire process — from soup to nuts — of evaluating, selecting, and deploying a SIEM. It offers pragmatic advice on how to get it done based on years working through this process as both consumers and vendors of SIEM technology. The process is not always painless, but we are certain it will help you avoid foundering on bad technology and inter-office politics. You owe it to yourself and your organization to ask the right questions and to get answers. It is time to slay the sacred cow of your substantial SIEM investment, and to figure out your best path forward.
Learn how network attacks can be avoided by utilizing a SIEM platform that combines historical data with real-time data from network sources and security policies to provide context around application usage, user behaviors, and other operations — for better, more accurate reporting.
This is the first part of a six-part series on compliance-driven security. This paper will illustrate how a well-structured security governance program with fully developed and implemented policies, plans, and procedures will strengthen an organization's security posture.
This paper addresses the Big Security Data challenge and highlights the key criteria organizations need to consider for processing security information in light of today's dynamic threat landscape.
In this paper, we explore the subject of continuous compliance versus audit-driven compliance, as well as how an ongoing approach to compliance makes compliance a positive force for securing data and systems.
McAfee EDB data management technology handles all of these SIEM/logging requirements. It is designed, implemented, maintained, and tested by our world-class in-house development team to meet the demanding requirements of SIEM/logging and leverage all of the capabilities of appropriate emerging technologies such as modern operating systems, multicore CPUs, solid state and RAM drives, and large amounts of main memory.

This was one of the very first recipes I ever made when I was a newly wed over ten years ago. I just made it again this morning. They are delicious and completely worth the extra step of beating the egg whites. They're light, fluffy, homey, and rustic all at the same time.Reply

I made the batter. My husband made the waffles. He said they are the best waffles he ever had! He is a HUGE fan of cinnamon and sugar. I think I scored some points with this recipe. :-)Reply

SPOKANE, Wash.-- Police were forced into an overnight standoff early Monday after they said a suspect would not cooperate with authorities.
Investigators said it started around midnight as a domestic violence situation at a home near Fairview and Havana. Details surrounding the argument were unclear, but authorities said Steven R. Zimmerman, 51, had a gun while his wife and son were in the house. They said he fired off at least one round into the basement where the son was located.
The wife and son then managed to escape from the home safel, while the Zimmerman stayed inside.
The SWAT team was called and attempted to contact the suspect for several hours with no luck. Eventually, crews fired three rounds of gas into the home, hoping to drive Zimmerman outside.
Around 7:30 a.m., officers found Zimmerman in his truck inside his unattached garage. Zimmerman claimed he did not know police where there.
He faces charges of assault and reckless endangerment for firing shots inside his home. They said alcohol likely played a role in the situation. However, no injuries were reported.

Police said they pulled a man over on a traffic violation, but when they tried to talk to him, he wouldn't cooperate because he was in "a bad mood."
Spartanburg Public Safety officers they noticed a pickup truck drift over the double yellow line twice and initiated a traffic stop along John B. White Sr. Boulevard at Blackstock Road on Tuesday.
When the officer spoke to the driver, who was identified as 25-year-old Jonathan Durham of Woodruff, he gave over his license and said, "I'm not going to cooperate, I'm in a bad mood," according to a police report.
The report said the officer replied, "Excuse me?" and Durham said, "I didn't stutter." The officer then requested backup and learned Durham had a suspended drivers license.
When officers told Durham to get out of the truck, they said he continued to resist, eventually pushing an officer into the side of the truck. The report said Durham outweighed the officer by 185 pounds and was 4 inches taller.
As officers continued to try and restrain Durham, they said they hit him four times on the back of his leg with a baton, but it did nothing. Police said about that time a deputy arrived and threatened to shoot Durham with his stun gun, he complied and they used two sets of handcuffs to arrest him.
Police said Durham was charged with driving under suspension, and two counts of resisting arrest.

Restaurant owner Art Bouvier was so impressed by Jhaqueil Reagan's demeanor and persistence that he offered him a better-paying job.
Jhaqueil Reagan has a new job — one that he doesn't have to trek 10 miles in snow, ice and slush to get to.
The 18-year-old Indianapolis youth was hired by a sympathetic restaurant owner who crossed paths with the teen as he was trudging nearly 10 miles in inclement weather to get to an interview last week for another job that paid minimum wage.
"I said, 'Well, how come you're not on the bus?' He said, 'I can't afford the bus until I get a job,'" Art Bouvier, owner of Papa Roux in Indianapolis, told Fox 59.
Teen lands job after 10 mile trek in the snow
"I'm thinking to myself, here's a kid walking almost 10 miles in ice and slush and snow for the hope of a job at minimum wage. That's like the kind of story your parents used to tell, my parents used to tell, uphill both ways in the snow."
Bouvier later phoned Reagan with a job offer at his Cajun restaurant — at above minimum wage, which in Indiana is $7.25 an hour. Reagan started his new job on Monday, helping load and unload food products, busing tables and washing dishes.
"Jhaqueil is one of the hardest-working new hires I've had in a long time," Bouvier told MSN News by telephone on Tuesday morning, as he juggled calls from media outlets near and far.
"The kid broke a sweat and never stopped and probably outlasted me."
Bouvier recounted last week's chance encounter with Reagan in a post Friday on Papa Roux's Facebook page, and soon the story went viral. By Tuesday, the post had more than 15,000 "likes."
Aside from his new job, Reagan has since been flooded with offers of donations and generosity from strangers touched by his selfless determination and his down-on-luck past.
"I'm lucky I met him," Reagan told Fox 59. "I'm really lucky I met him."
According to the TV station, Reagan had to drop out of school two years ago when his mother died. He completed his GED while staying home to care for his siblings.
"It's going to help me provide. It's going to help me put a roof over their head," said Reagan told WISH-TV on Monday. "It will help me tremendously."
Bouvier said he was outside putting down some ice melt when Reagan walked past him. The teen asked how far it was to 10th and Sherman. He had already walked about three miles, and Bouvier told him it was another six or seven miles.
"I suggested that he would be far better off on the bus than on foot, especially in all this ice and slush. He thanked me and continued on," Bouvier recalled in his Facebook post.
About 15 minutes later, as Bouvier and his wife Colleen were driving down 10th Street, they came upon Reagan again, still walking. They gave him a ride and soon found out what the teen was up to.
"Jhaqueil was waking from 42nd and Post to an interview at 10th and Sherman. For a potential (but not guaranteed) minimum-wage job. In this weather. Walking, because he couldn't afford the bus. He had actually planned his time well and the interview was still 2 hours away."
Bouvier said he gave the teen some money for lunch, got his phone number and dropped him off for his interview for a cashier's position at a thrift store. And it was then that Bouvier thought the kid deserved more, so he called him later with a job offer.
Reagan wound up with a better-paying job miles closer to home — and he won't even have to walk to work.
IndyGo, Indianapolis' public transportation agency, gave the teen a free one-year bus pass.
On Facebook, strangers also offered their generosity. One woman said she had bought a $50 Visa gift card for Reagan and she and her friends were buying more gift cards to drop off at the restaurant. Another woman asked if he needed furniture or clothing.
Kudos also poured in for Bouvier and his establishment.
"What a wonderful story. I've also heard nothing but great things about the food at Papa Roux. I'll definitely be eating there as soon as I can get out of my still iced over driveway. Thank you for maintaining a warm heart in an oftentimes coldhearted world," one woman wrote.
"And I thought that when I used to walk almost two miles it was quite a feat," another man said. "God Bless Papa Roux. Next time in Indy, I AM Stopping in."
And how does Bouvier feel about all the media attention?
"I think it's absurd — but it's absurd in a good way," he told MSN News.
"I never sought the publicity but if it's going to be used to make other people come forward and do good things, I'm all for it."

Volunteering by older adults 65 plus has been on an upward path in recent years. A report of The Corporation for National and Community Service notes that the number of older adults 65 plus who volunteer has risen from 7.7 million in 2002 to 9.1 million in 2009. Also, the volunteer rate for older adults 65 plus increased by 64 percent between 1974 and 2005 (from 14.3% in 1974 to 23.5% in 2005). The most recent volunteer rate of older adults 65 plus is 23.9 percent for 2009.
Why has the number of older volunteers continued to increase over the past decades? Generational changes, connections between health and volunteering, and improved education and income levels among older adults may be factors that explain the increase of volunteering by older adults. Research indicates that volunteering can improve physical and mental health. Older adults may have experienced a boost in their health through volunteering and this health benefit could have motivated them to continue volunteering.
Also, today's older adults have more resources than in the past. They are more educated and financially secure than in the past. Research by The Corporation for National and Community Service finds that the proportion of adults age 65 and older without a high school diploma has dropped almost 40 percentage points since 1974. Moreover, older Americans with college degrees are also volunteering at a higher rate than in the past.
Older adults volunteer for many different types of organizations. Religious institutions are the most popular organizations through which they volunteer their time and skills. They also volunteer at social service organizations, hospitals, educational organizations, and civic and arts organizations.
They also engage in a variety of activities as volunteers. These activities include collecting and distributing food, fundraising for organizations, professional/management work and general labor activities.
Since volunteering helps older adults stay active and connected to their communities, it's a win-win outcome for both older volunteers and the organizations that reap the benefits of their service.

Dr. Jarrett Johnson received $5,000 from the 2012 Kentucky Academy of Science (KAS) Special Research Program to investigate gene flow among populations of multiple amphibian species in the eastern foothills of the Santa Clara Valley, California. This work will identify species-specific patterns of amphibian dispersal on a single landscape and inform conservation decision-making for several amphibian species of special concern across the region.
Kevin Tewell, a first-year MS student in Dr. Johnson's lab, is a 2012 recipient of the Marcia Athey Award. He received $500 to study landscape genetics of marbled salamanders at Mammoth Cave National Park. Kevin's research has the potential to identify key differences in patterns of salamander gene flow in landscapes that are largely intact, versus landscapes that suffer from fragmentation and urbanization. Kevin also recently received $400 from the Sigma Xi Grants-in-Aid of Research Program to support this project.

These lightweight Safecraft model LT fire extinguishers are designed for use in both Circle Track and drag racing. Along with their lightweight cylinder, the model LTs have a very compact discharge head, which gives them a smaller overall size. The activation portion of the discharge head can be rotated to align with the cable, providing much more installation flexibility. The discharge head is machined from billet aluminum, anodized for great looks, and has two separate discharge ports. This lets you run separate lines to the driver and engine compartments.

SPOKANE, Wash. -- The Inland Northwest Honor Flight will charter its next two flights to make traveling easier on Veterans.
The organization says the flights will be able to take 3 times the amount of World War II veterans on the flights as they were before on commercial flights.
The next two flights could now ensure every person on the waiting list will get to go on that trip. With the new plan, the organization will complete its mission to take every local veteran to the capitol by the end of the year.
The charters are non-stop flights with no-layovers and the veterans will be home a day earlier. The chartered flights will cost more but Honor Flight says it will allow them to move to the next generation of veterans.
Honor Flight organizes a free trip for World War II veterans to travel to Washington D.C. to see memorials built in their honor.

92: Sunrise
Title text: Sometimes, I sit on top of parking decks and watch the sun rise. I feel like I should have a guitar or something.
[edit] Explanation
Much like the 4am Project, Cueball finds a certain beauty in the way the world looks without billions of humans crawling around on it. He thinks of this as a secret place which thrills him. He wishes to find other people like him who are wandering at this time rather than sleeping so that they can meet and talk to each other. But then he suggests that it is a bad time and place to meet people other than troublemakers and the police. Considering this he goes back to his house, probably disappointed, gets ready and goes to a club which is much safer place to meet people but not as unusual and exciting as what he wants.
This comic shows Cueball's tendency towards defying the norms and exploring unusual things and circumstances.
[edit] Transcript
- [Cueball is on the street. Behind him is a house with a lawn.]
- Cueball's thoughts: I love the time just before sunrise. It's quiet; no one is ever just walking about. It's like a secret. I always hope that I'll find someone else quietly hiding from sleep, and we'll see each other and sit and talk. I guess this is a bad place to meet people. I wish it weren't.
- [Cueball goes into the house, brushes his teeth, and leaves the house again.]
- [Cueball is at a club, disco balls in the ceiling and a giant woofer. Many people are dancing around him.]
Doesn't look like Cueball to me, he has hair. Caagr98 (talk) 17:22, 17 April 2013 (UTC)
The title text seems wrong. It reads 'Sometimes, I sit on top of parking decks and watch the sun rise. I feel like I should have a guitar or something.' in my Android xkcd reader. --22.214.171.124 07:32, 27 April 2013 (UTC)

Johnson County Attorney Janet Lyness has dropped the charges of witness tampering that were filed against the parents of a kidnapping suspect.
Earlier this month, Xuefan Tang and Li Qiao were arrested and charged with witness tampering after police say they had tried to get the victim in their son's case to change her story.
Their son, Peng Tang, is charged with kidnapping and sexual abuse after police say he locked a woman in a bedroom and sexually assaulted her while she was showing Tang the apartment she was trying to sublease.
Lyness says that while their is probable cause to charge them, she believes cultural differences contributed to their actions.
"I believe that Mr. Tang's parents were doing what they believed was right to help their son, but did not understand the repercussions of such behavior under Iowa law," Lyness said in a written statement.
Lyness conferred with the victim and the Iowa City Police Department before filing the dismissal and says they agreed.
Lyness adds that she doesn't believe the victim is in any danger due to the dismissal of these charges.
Peng Tang was charged with witness tampering and solicitation to commit an aggravated misdemeanor after police say he sent a letter from jail on April 4 asking his friend to find the victim in his case and get her to change her story. Those charges have not been dropped.
