Is Global Warming Something We Can Prevent?
There's been a ton of talk about new carbon emission standards and with Obama now in the White House, there will probably be a lot of money spent on new legislation, new policies and all with the aim or curbing or slowing down global warming.
Personally I think that many people miss the big picture when it comes to global warming. The earth has been around for 4.5 billion years and has survived just fine with us and will do just fine without us. Throughout the history of the earth there has been a definite movement between warm and cold periods. I think that what is misunderstood most about these temperature changes in the past is that everyone assumes they are extremely gradual.
For example you hear people talk about an ice age that lasts 10,000 years or a warmer period that may last 5,000 years, but in the middle of those overall trends there have been period of 50 years or even 100 years that may completely buck the trend. One of the great examples I read about was when the great conveyor – seen here which is huge underwater river in the ocean more than 40 times as large as all the fresh water rivers on earth, part of it stopped flowing in the not too distant path (maybe 20 to 30,000 years ago). Well the warm water the great conveyor brings up from the equator keeps much of continental Europe and the east coast of the US to some extent much warmer than it would be normally.
When the great ocean conveyor belt stopped flowing, the climate of France took about 3 years to be plunged into extremely cold weather and much of Europe experienced the same conditions. Many scientists are saying that now because of the melting of the north pole ice, the extra fresh water may serve to disrupt or partially half the great conveyor – which has been theorized adds close to 10-15 degrees of warmth to the areas it passes through.
Here is the direct quote from this article that I found particularly enlightening:
For early humans living in Europe 30,000 years ago – when the cave paintings in France were produced – the weather would be pretty much like it is today for well over a thousand years, giving people a chance to build culture to the point where they could produce art and reach across large territories.
And then a particularly hard winter would hit.
The spring would come late, and summer would never seem to really arrive, with the winter snows appearing as early as September. The next winter would be brutally cold, and the next spring didn't happen at all, with above-freezing temperatures only being reached for a few days during August and the snow never completely melting. After that, the summer never returned: for 1500 years the snow simply accumulated and accumulated, deeper and deeper, as the continent came to be covered with glaciers and humans either fled or died out. (Neanderthals, who dominated Europe until the end of these cycles, appear to have been better adapted to cold weather than Homo sapiens.)
So is Global Warming a bit of red herring, when we really should be worried about Global Cooling?

A tale of three heads!
2 June 2008
The A.G. Evans medal commemorates the life and work of the distinguished scientist who led the Chemistry Department at Cardiff from 1952 until 1979. This year it was awarded to Professor M. W. Roberts at a seminar held in his honour and attended by Professor Evans daughter and son in law and some of the top scientists in the field of surface science and catalysis. It is particularly fitting that Professor M. W. Roberts should be awarded this medal; in 1979 he took over from AG as head of physical chemistry at Cardiff and later went on to lead the Department through the difficult times of the merger between UCC and UWIST. At the seminar that followed, Professor Graham Hutchings, who took over from Professor Roberts as head of department in 1996, was one of the contributors to a sparkling programme that also included Professor Hajo Freund (Director of Chemical Physics, Fritz-Haber-Institute, Berlin), Professor Sir John Meurig Thomas FRS and Sir Ronald Mason FRS.

Mecklenburg County's
police chief says he believes his officers receive adequate training,
but practices are under review after an officer fatally shot an unarmed
man in September.
Chief Rodney Monroe told The Charlotte Observer his department doesn't put improperly trained officers on the street.
make every concerted effort that we can to look at the most updated and
relevant training when it comes to our officers," he said. "But you're
in a profession in which things happen so fast."
Officer Randall Kerrick, 27, is charged with voluntary manslaughter in
the death of 24-year-old Jonathan Ferrell, a former Florida A&M
football player. Kerrick is white. Ferrell, who is black, had pounded on
the door of a nearby home for help after wrecking his car. But the
woman who answered thought he was a robber and called 911.
the least experienced of the three officers who responded, was the only
one who fired his gun. Police say he struck Ferrell 10 times.
The shooting sparked racial tensions in the city. Civil rights groups called for better diversity training.
fiancee, Caché Heidel, and the Ferrell family attorney said they
believe Kerrick's unconscious biases overruled his training. Heidel said
Kerrick wasn't "fully prepared for that situation that night."
Monroe, who is black, disagreed. "He wouldn't have been out there" is wasn't properly prepared, the chief told the newspaper.
said his department's cultural diversity curriculum exceeds state
standards and is more extensive than many agency police departments.
the chief said, an internal review is looking at the training of
recruits, officer training and policies regarding use of force. The
department held two forums after Kerrick's arrest so officers could ask
"Anytime you arrest one of your own police officers and
charge him with voluntary manslaughter, that creates a great amount of
fear within your own organization," Monroe said. "People wanted to know
to make sure what they're thinking and how they're trained and how
they're operating — that they're still on the right track."
to The Observer's review, all of the department's nearly 1,900 sworn
officers have gone through diversity training. As recruits,
Charlotte-Mecklenburg officers undergo 18 hours of diversity-related
training required by the state, plus an additional 24 hours required by
the department. To maintain their certification, officers must go
through two hours of training yearly.
Roughly half of the
department's officers have gone through two days of training called
"dismantling racism," which aims to educate officers on deeply rooted
That training started with 2012 recruits. Kerrick, a
second-year officer at the time, hadn't yet been scheduled to attend. It
could take several years for the entire department to complete it, said
Maj. Mike Adams, who oversees training for the department.
give some considerable time talking about implicit bias and how the
brain works," said Elisa Chinn-Gary, a family court administrator who
helps run the program.
Officers also receive 76 hours of firearms
training, 56 hours on arrest techniques and controlling suspects, and
four hours on when to use a specific type of force. At the forum,
officers asked for more training in hand-to-hand fighting, Monroe said.
said one of the best ways to improve race relations is by building a
diverse department. Seven years ago, 78 percent of officers were white.
70 percent of the department's officers are white, 20 percent are black
and less than 10 percent is Hispanic. That compares to a city
population that is 50 percent white, 35 percent black and 13 percent
"We're not there yet," Monroe said.

The Word: Chris Hemsworth is on a starvation diet
Take a good look at each and every one of Chris Hemsworth's magnificent muscles in "Thor 2: The Dark World." They're about to disappear.
The elder Hemsworth is going from the world of superheroes to a brutal survival tale. In his new film "Heart of the Sea," Ron Howard's movie of the true story that inspired "Moby Dick," he'll play a sailor who turns to cannibalism. "A bunch of sailors in a whaling ship get struck by a whale, the ship sinks and they jump onto the small rafts and drift for 90 days. And basically they begin to die and eat each other," he told Jimmy Kimmel.
Hemsworth hasn't resorted to eating human flesh, but the thought has surely crossed his mind: To wreak the brutal physical transformation the role requires, he's currently eating 500 calories a day: just a few small salads and scraps of protein. "It's funny — you've never heard 15 big, burly guys playing sailors talk about their calorie count, what they should and shouldn't eat, what their cheat meal is going to be," he says.
Chris knows he's not done playing Thor, right? Prestige-y Oscar movies are all very well, but if Thor is too scrawny to fill out his armor in "Avengers 2," I shall be annoyed.

Even though it's the season of sickness, pediatricians are being told to stop prescribing so many antibiotics. You may know it as the common cold, or sometimes it's called an upper respiratory infection, but either way, it's always a virus that Beaumont Children's Hospital Chief of Pediatrics says should not be treated with an antibiotic. "We breed resistant organisms, then when people do get infections, they tend to be of a much more serious nature," Dr. Brian Berman says. A new report from the American Academy of Pediatrics and the CDC shows more than one in five pediatrician visits leads to a prescription for antibiotics, and usually it's to treat an upper respiratory infection - which may not be helping. In response to why doctors are prescribing antibiotics inappropriately, Berman says "I think there are certain pressures that come to bear. Families will often, in some cases, actually insist that their child receive an antibiotic even when the doctor feels it is not entirely appropriate." Doctors need to help parents understand the difference between a bacterial or viral infection. Symptoms can be confusing. "If they develop severe ear pain, if they have a cough that's becoming much more prominent, if the fever persists for more than a couple days or if it resolves the fever but then returns several days thereafter, there's a suggestion that there now may be a superimposed infection and that's what may require an antibiotic," Berman explains. Taking antibiotics not only wipes out the bad bacteria but kills your good bacteria too, so the message is - avoid them if necessary. "A number of parents now will come in and say 'Gee if my child doesn't need an antibiotics, lets skip it. Let's skip it this time.' So I think the message is getting out and little by little we're clearly moving in the right direction," Berman adds. The CDC provides a 'Get Smart' online resource to learn how to know when antibiotics work. Online: www.cdc.gov/getsmart

The damage in Adairsville is extensive; dropped power poles, flipped cars and a destroyed factory.
Trucker Eric Harper managed to survive the tornado, even though powerful winds tossed his truck on its side like a toy.
"All of the sudden it got harder and harder and I looked around, 'I hope it don't blow me over,'" said Harper. "Before I got the words out of my mouth good, wham! I was lying over to the side."
Harper survived the tumble in the truck. Other truckers first helped him out of the damaged cab, he's lucky he's only got minor injuries.
"Hurt my shoulder really good right here real bad, I got against the thing there," Harper said.
Just across the street from where Harper's truck was damaged, the Diaki metals fabrication shop was torn to shreds by violent winds. CBS Atlanta News caught up with workers wandering away from the wreckage.
"How are you alive?" asked CBS Atlanta News reporter Steve Kiggins.
"Really, I don't know man," replied George Rhodes. "Everything else is destroyed out there."
Diaki workers heeded tornado warnings and took cover shortly before winds destroyed most of the factory.
"The roof got sucked up had one person get hurt but he's OK," said Greg Gardner. "It all just hit at one time. It took a matter of about 10 seconds and it was over with."
At the Northside Bank next door, winds tossed cars like toys while employees took shelter in the vault.
"We were in there probably for only 10 or 15 seconds and you could feel the pressure in your ears change like riding in an airplane," said Mark Wanson. "After a few minutes it quieted down and then we started assessing the damage."
As for Harper, his wounds are minimal and he's happy he wasn't driving when the storm hit.
"I just thank God that I was here at the lot when it happened instead out on the highway," said Harper.
There is still a lot of assessment yet to happen in Adairsville. Power crews worked hard into Wednesday night to get energy back online. The full scale of the damage might not be realized until the sun comes up Thursday.

Though it seems folks along the Wapsipinicon River in Anamosa may have dodged a bullet, people in Olin and Oxford Junction just downriver are watching as floodwaters creep closer to their homes.
The rising waters of the Wapsi have turned the area of East Locust Street east of Harrison Street northwest into a lake. The road was dry as late as Wednesday night.
The deepest part of Olin's flooding lies over green space, as four houses and four trailers damaged in the floods of 2008 were never rebuilt.
Olin got help Thursday from Independence, which donated its extra sandbags to Olin.
The bulk of sandbagging, however, came Wednesday night, when volunteers gathered in Olin and made some 4,300 sandbags.
The original crest prediction for the Wapsipinicon River in Anamosa was 27 feet and has since decreased to around 22 feet.
Jones County Emergency Management coordinator Brenda Leonard said the drastic drop in crest prediction did create some extra scrambling, but in this case, she said, that's not completely bad.
"Yeah, it's kind of a bummer that a lot of people went to work, but rather than them having to clean muck and mud out of houses afterwards and lost possessions and insurance claims, you know, we just err on the side of being safe," Leonard said.
She said it's difficult to say exactly how high the water in Olin will get because there's no official flood gauge there.
She said the same problem lies on the Maquoketa River and would like to see more gauges in more cities on both the Wapsi and the Maquoketa.
"There's one in Manchester and then one in the city of Maquoketa, and that's quite a ways to go without any type of gage," Leonard said of the Maquoketa River. "You kind of rely on the cities in between. -- 'What are you seeing?' 'How much rain did you get?' -- but it's still just a guessing game."
There are approximately 10 homes in Olin that took sandbags Wednesday night. Homes closest to the rising water built sandbag walls around the lowest parts of their property.
As of Thursday evening, residents there and in Oxford Junction were hoping the water wouldn't get much higher.

I was on a panel at the Aspen Ideas Festival in Colorado this week when Newsweek's Jonathan Alter asked me, "Is Obama a sellout?" The question isn't whether he is a sellout or not—it's about what demands are made by grass-roots social movements of those who would represent them. The question is, who are these candidates responding to, answering to?
"Funny Man in an Unfunny World"
The world lost one of its great comedians this week with the death at age 71 of George Carlin. Carlin had a career as a stand-up comic that spanned a half-century, in which he continually broke new ground, targeting those in power with his wit and genius.

"Presidential Race Ignores Arms Race"
As the U.S. presidential race continues, so does the arms race worldwide. People—civilians, children—are being killed and maimed, on a daily basis, by unexploded cluster bombs and land mines. Thousands of nuclear missiles remain at hair-trigger alert.

Sami al-Haj is a free man today, after having been imprisoned by the U.S. military for more than six years. His crime: journalism.

It has been 40 years since Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. was assassinated in Memphis, Tenn., while standing on the balcony outside his room at the Lorraine Motel. King was there to support striking sanitation workers, African-American men who endured horrible working conditions for poverty wages. While King's staff was opposed to him going, as they were scrambling to organize King's new initiative, the Poor People's Campaign, King himself knew that the sanitation workers were at the front lines of fighting poverty.
"Body of War"

Farm Bill On Hold
Hopes were raised - then quickly dashed - for some House action this week - at least related to the farm bill. Now it appears Congress will leave for elections without even extending existing farm law. Republicans were toying with a face-saving three-month extension of the 2008 Farm Bill - set to expire September 30th - but even that is not before the Rules Committee - which must clear major bills with a rule for debate - and a spokesman did not expect a change - short of an unlikely last-minute emergency meeting.

Sometimes, a story with assorted moving parts leads you to an unexpected conclusion. Over the weekend I shared a tale with a gathering of friends on how well-intended ideas can become bad law.
A 21-month-old boy at a child-care facility stumbled and fell. He hit his forehead and sustained a cut requiring 10 stitches. The parents sued, claiming negligence.
Two years passed. Then, last month, the parents contacted Channel 3 (KCRA) and a story aired, entitled, "Cal Family Fitness incident raises child-care questions."
At this point, an out-of-town house guest said, "Lemme guess: Someone decided we needed a law."
Sure enough, state Sen. Leland Yee had already issued a press release for Senate Bill 766, proposing "standards for child-care services at malls, stores and fitness centers."
The San Francisco Democrat chairs the Senate Human Services Committee, which oversees the department licensing day care centers. Unlike full-time facilities, ancillary child-care centers like those at Cal Fitness are exempt from even basic safety standards because parents and guardians are on the same premises where the day care is located.
"All we wanted to do was put some basic standards into place," Yee's chief of staff, Adam Keigwin, tells me, saying KCRA's story prompted the proposal.
"Yee's law is all based on our story," Cal Fitness CEO Larry Gury says, "But we exceed everything he's got in his bill," a point KCRA acknowledged in a follow-up report on Yee's proposal.
Keigwin counters that "where they fall short, and what this bill wouldn't allow for, is if several workers call in sick, oftentimes they just take a worker from someplace else in the gym and fill in for the day. That person hasn't gone through a background check."
Not so. Whether they work specifically in child-care areas or not, Gury tells me that "all Cal Fit staffers are required to be trained in first aid, CPR and AED (automated external defibrillator) certified in both adult and child safety." Yee's bill requires only one staffer be trained in pediatric first aid and CPR.
Yee's bill requires that anyone over 18 monitoring children have a background check and that at least one staffer be over 18.
"We do a thorough background check on every employee," Gury says. The company hires no one under 18 precisely because thorough background checks on them aren't possible.
Additionally, California law already requires that employees for such facilities undergo specific California Justice Department background checks via an organization called Trustline.
Gury feels he's being made the poster boy for SB 766 because Yee overreacted to a story he saw on the news. Indeed, Yee's Bay Area field representative, Dan Lieberman, tells me SB 766 "actually came out of that very (Cal Fitness) lawsuit. The senator heard about that and felt this would be a good point to put in some common-sense regulation."
Just a minute: The lawsuit hasn't been settled. Gury wants to go to trial, which is scheduled for June. If the lawsuit proves without merit, as Gury believes, shouldn't that dictate whether a law is necessary?
Has anyone in Yee's office toured a Cal Fitness child-care facility or seen the surveillance video of the incident in which the little boy fell? I have. Gury says Yee's office only contacted him after he appeared on KFBK with talk host John McGinness last Wednesday. Apparently, a visit to a Cal Fitness facility is now being scheduled.
At our weekend gathering, my neighbor's 25-year-old son, Ian Adams, chimed in. A law student home on spring break and preparing for the bar exam, he rolled his eyes in exasperation: "Usually you form a task force to determine the need for a new law instead of proposing one based on an isolated incident."
Funny, McGinness called it an isolated incident, too.
Ian then pointed to the scar on his forehead he got as a little boy when he fell at school, gashed his forehead on a 2-by-4 and received 10 stitches. I've known Ian and his folks for eight years and never knew this.
You can't even see the scar.
I turned to his mom: "Did you sue the school?"
"Of course not! He fell."
Yee's proposal doesn't sound terribly unreasonable, but it seems more a product of our own design. This problem doesn't need government intervention; it has a built-in free market solution. What parent would leave his or her child with a poorly supervised day care center? What business would risk not providing basic safety standards?
Sometimes I wonder if free market solutions fail because we fail to avail ourselves of them. We get lazy, cut corners, ignore details, even when it's easy not to. Or maybe it's just easier to blame someone else.
Are we free market practitioners or unaccountable citizens? Because one can get us less government; the other often doesn't. Guess which is which.

There's something about this tropical leopard manicure that gets me all excited. It's so colorful and totally puts me in the mood for summer. This one may be more festive for summer than my palm tree manicure!
As you all know, I am crazy about China Glaze, and their Island Escape Summer 2011 collection is no exception! The entire collection is worked into the manicure above, with the addition of China Glaze Liquid Leather for the black edges. Check out the video below for a how-to tutorial from China Glaze.
Island Escape is made up of two crèmes and four shimmers:
- Electric Pineapple: (used as the base color above) High intensity crème based lime green.
- Papaya Punch: Crème based vivid orange.
- 108 Degrees: Flirtatious berry pink with specks of micro glitter.
- Senorita Bonita: Passionate purple shimmer with pink micro glitter.
- Blue Iguana: Bold and daring sparkly blue.
- Cha Cha Cha: Vivacious shimmer green.

Oh Em Gee!! I Love this Jen!!!!!!
This is amazing!! I want my nails to look like this!!
No wonder you were so excited! I LOVE it! Did your husband help this time too? ;)
This is so amazing! I love all the China Glaze colours that you've posted…but I don't suppose you know if they're available in the UK? I really want some summery colours on my nails! :)
That looks awesome!!! Definitely going to have to give this a try!!
Oooo I love that crackle polish! I want!!
I know this has absolutely nothing to do with nails (although I love this manicure idea and I can't wait to try it). But I was checking out the H&M US site and they have clothes up now! It's similar to an online store but you can't buy anything yet. However, they have different views of the clothes and you can see the items in different colors. I guess they're testing it out for when they will offer online shopping later in the year.
Just thought I'd share. I love your blog! :)
So!Fun! :) Love it!!!!
This design is so cute! I love Electric Pineapple & Papaya Punch. :D
LOVE it! this is a really fun manicure! :)
Love this perfect for the summer and will prbably lighten up any outfit, may not be able to do it myself but might have to take a picture and give to my manicurist lol
Your and absolute manicure maven. The condition of your nails are beautiful. I would love to do more creative, unique manicures like yours but my nails, cuticles are in terrible condition and I cannot always afford a manicure and when II do a manicure myself it never turns out the same. Specifically the sides of my nails where the skin meets the nails are always looking ragged no matter what I do. Are there any secrets to your great looking nails, do you mind sharing how you keep your nails in such beautiful condition. Any products that you use that would help or something that you do daily?
Thank you,
Chloe :)

Prima ballerina takes on new role
Date: May 6, 2009
by: The Observer Staff
Lauren Strongin, Sarasota Ballet's prima ballerina for the past five years, announced her resignation this week from the company to accept a position with Houston Ballet. She begins her corps de ballet position July 21 under the direction of Houston Ballet Artistic Director Stanton Welch.
Strongin's departure from the company follows the retirement of fellow principal dancers Kyoko Takeichi, Saneyuki Kawashima and the departure of Sergiy Mykhaylov, meaning a loss of four of five principal dancers for Sarasota Ballet.
"The only reason I am able to take this next step is because of everything I've been given here," Strongin, 25, told The Longboat Observer, "from Robert de Warren (retired artistic director) making me a principal dancer and Iain Webb (current artistic director) bringing in all the different choreographers."
Said Webb: "While I'm happy for Lauren — to see her pursue her professional dreams, I must be honest:
We will miss her extraordinary grace and beauty at Sarasota Ballet. Lauren's stage presence and dancing enabled us to reach new heights with the company over the past two years.
"We've accomplished a lot in these past two years," Webb said, "and although I'm saddened by Lauren's departure, I'm still confident Sarasota Ballet will continue to grow and mature as a premier company. We won't let up."
The loss of Strongin will leave another void in the ballet company. Her husband, Adrian Ciobanu, is one of the the company's ballet masters. Ciobanu, 35, joined the company in 1996, after immigrating from Romania. He was a member of the corps de ballet, then became a teacher in the company's school and at Dance — The Next Generation. He became the school's principal in 2005 and assistant ballet master in 2008.
"Iain has always been really supportive of both our careers, pushing me to be the best dancer I could be and helping Adrian to be more than an instructor, to be a ballet master," said Strongin, a native of Arizona.
"He (Webb) is open and willing to give people a chance."
Although Strongin and Ciobanu are anxious to experience a larger ballet company and city, they said the move from Sarasota is bittersweet.
"We have great friends and supporters here," Strongin says. "There's something really special here. It's like a family. You get to know everybody — the donors, the associates — and everyone is rooting for you and wants you to do well. They're on your team and have seen you grow as a dancer. I will definitely miss that."

DULUTH, MN (KDAL) - Mother Nature is giving us a little reminder of just how cold the Northland can get in mid winter. It will be Wednesday before temperatures climb above zero and a Wind Chill Warning continues until noon on Tuesday. Monday morning's low in Duluth was 20 below but the winds made it feel more like minus 45. Elsewhere in northern Minnesota it was even colder. Babbitt checked in with 27 below, 26 below in Ely and International Falls was 23 below zero. Even colder temperatures are in the forecast for Tuesday morning, but the winds won't be as strong. As cold as it is, we won't even come close to challenging the record low for January 22nd in Duluth which is 35 below.

Forward Carl Hagelin set a new career-high with a goal and two assists in Game 4, to go along with four shots and a plus-3 rating in 16:14 of ice time. He now has two goals and two assists in the four-game series. Hagelin had three points in 17 postseason games last year, including no goals. He has seven points in 21 career postseason games.
Brassard Stays Hot
Forward Derick Brassard notched two assists and won 8-of-9 faceoffs in 17:29 of ice time in Game 4, giving him five points in his last two games. His five points put him in a tie for fifth in the NHL this postseason.
Stepan Notches Game-Winner
Derek Stepan notched his second game-winner in as many days. He finished with six shots on goals and won 10-of-18 faceoffs in 20:43 of ice time. He's recorded a point in nine straight games at Madison Square Garden dating back to the regular season. He's tied for first in game-winning goals with Boston's Nathan Horton, Chicago's Patrick Sharp and Los Angeles' Slava Voynov.
For his career, Stepan has 11 points in 29 postseason games. He's already surpassed his goal total from last postseason, when he finished with one goal in 20 games.
Girardi Cashes in on Power Play
Defenseman Dan Girardi gave the Rangers a 3-2 lead on a power play goal in the third period. He added three hits and five blocked shots in 29:35 of ice time. It's the third straight game Girardi has blocked five shots, and his 19 blocks overall leads the NHL in the playoffs. His 29:35 of ice time was the most he's had this postseason, and the most since he had 44:26 against the Capitals in Game 3 of last season's playoff, though that game went to triple overtime.
Girardi has 16 points in 56 career playoff games.
Richie Gets in Goal Column
Forward Brad Richards broke through in Game 4 with his first goal of the postseason in the first period. He added four shots in 14:51 of ice time. He now has five goals and four assists in 17 career postseason games against the Washington Capitals. The goal was his first playoff tally since Game 7 against the Capitals a season ago. He now has 16 points in 24 postseason games as a Ranger.

We are happy to report on a long and overdue reunion for a marine and his former canine companion.
It's been two years since Marine Corporal Joaquin Aranda and Donna, his highly trained bomb detection dog, have seen each other.
The yellow lab spent 9 months with Aranda patrolling for explosives in Afghanistan.
Now, Donna has retired from military service and has a new home.
Aranda has adopted her.
"She never missed a bomb" he said. "And I'm really proud of that, that's a big deal. It's not how many you find, it's how many you missed and she didn't miss any and that's a real big deal."
This reunion was made possible by the American Humane Association and Mission K9 Rescue. The groups work together to bring military war dogs back to the US to reconnect with their former handlers.

Israel's elections
The dividing line
ISRAEL'S elections, which are now two-and-a-half weeks away, are pitting hawks against doves in stark confrontation, despite the original determination of the two camps' leaders to blur their differences. The question now is whether this unintended deepening of the political divide will extend from the election campaign to the coalition-making process that inevitably follows. Will Binyamin Netanyahu be able to woo a moderate party into his new government? Or will he have to make do with the rightist and religious groups which he calls the 'natural allies' of his party, Likud?

This Just In: Hemsky's Really Good!!!
Among the things I thought we'd never need to say: Ales Hemsky is a very good NHL hockey player. His contract is exceptional, the tragedy of these years since 2006 summer is that the team didn't get more from it. Recently on this blog and others, questions about Hemsky's ability on the powerplay have come to the fore.
Numbers published on this blog and others frame the issue in a most negative fashion. I don't understand the rationale and I certainly don't agree with the "framed math." So let's set some things straight. Below are the leaders (by year) at 5×4/60 points-per-game for the Edmonton Oilers since 2007-08. Based on 50 games and 3 minutes per game PP time.
- Ales Hemsky 5.93
- Dustin Penner 4.07
- Shawn Horcoff 4.00
- Ales Hemsky 5.00
- Shawn Horcoff 3.68
- Sam Gagner 3.12
- Dustin Penner 6.92
- Ales Hemsky 5.88
- Mike Comrie 5.56
Source is the brilliant Gabriel Desjardins and of course 2009-10 numbers are not at the 50 game mark. All three seasons have 3:00 minutes or more TOI at 5×4. Hemsky's 05-06 number at 5×4 btw was 5.45, making him an extremely consistent powerplay performer.
I'm one of those who believe Sam Gagner may eventually take over from Hemsky, and in fact Gagner this season (5.85) is very good. However, if the argument is that Gagner is ready to take over the Hemsky role I think we'd need more proof than running alongside for 19 games of one season.
We're going to have plenty of time to talk about Gagner v. Hemsky on the powerplay over the next couple of seasons. I'm hoping we can keep it from becoming personal and vicious, but after the last couple of days am not confident we can do it.

Consumers should check the labels on their Nestlé Nesquik chocolate powder drink mix due to a voluntarily recall by Nestlé USA, the U.S. Food and Drug Administratons reported last week.
According to the consumer protection news release issued Thursday one of 14 production codes may contain the bacterium Salmonella.
Nestlé announced recall because the ingredient supplier, Omya Inc., notified it that certain lots of an ingredient, calcium carbonate, had the potential for salmonella.
The recall is limited to the following sizes, UPC and production codes of NESQUIK Chocolate Powder:UPC codeProduction codes40.7 oz. Chocolate

To locate the production code, consumers should look on the bottom of the canister, adjacent to the consumer expiration date. All affected products have an expiration date of BEST BEFORE Oct 2014.
According to a FDA, the most common symptoms of salmonella infection are diarrhea, abdominal cramps and fever, which develop within eight to 72 hours of eating or drinking contaminated food. The illness usually lasts for four to seven days and most people recover without treatment. However, salmonellosis can be severe or even life threatening for infants, older people, pregnant women and those with weakened immune systems. Individuals experiencing these symptoms should seek medical attention.

This one was a good one too. I made it per recipe as always the first time I try a new one. Next time will add a few ingredients to it.
Reviewed Dec. 7, 2011
Great quick recipe. The salsa makes it look like you chopped vegetables! I added an onion and cooked it with the pork and used apricot preserves. I used a homemade taco seasoning that is fine with beef but it must "absorb" differently with the pork tenderloin because it was much spicier for comparable proportions.

DEARBORN (WKZO) -- Ford's operation in India is taking some heat over an ad that never ran.
The ad shows three scantily-clad women bound and gagged in the back of a Ford Figo. Former Italian Prime Minister Silvio Berlusconi is seen in the front of the car throwing up a peace sign. The tagline read: "Leave your worries behind with Figo's extra large boot."
The ad never saw publication and Ford issued an apology statement to the Indian newspaper "The Hindu."

Blackhawks fans are ready to party with their Stanley Cup champions, but unlike the last celebration in 2010 – which consisted of a long parade that ended at Wacker and Michigan -- the city is planning to move the big event away from the heart of downtown this year.
City officials say the parade will start at 10:30 a.m. on Friday. Blackhawks players will be atop double-decker buses. The parade will make its way to a rally at Hutchinson Field in Grant Park along Lake Michigan. There will be fenced-off entrances to the Hutchinson Field rally at Congress Parkway and Jackson Boulevard.
Officials say the field can hold up to 100,000 people, but large TV screens will be put up for overflow crowds.
Final details on the parade route will be released Thursday.
"Everybody can have Friday to feel like a Ferris Buehler's day off," Emanuel said. "We're gonna do it in a respectful way that respects the Blackhawks and their championship. We'll be providing the security and capacity to do that and people will have a proper celebration."
On Tuesday night, there were just a handful of softball players and joggers on Hutchinson Field, but by Friday morning, a large stage will be erected, and fencing will wall off the perimeter of the park.
"I think it's a great idea," one man says. "This is the most beautiful part of the city and everyone's gonna come out."
"I was here last time and it was madness," says another fan. "It felt like the whole city was shut down. So it feels like it would be better to have it in a park."
Chicago police say security will be tight Friday. They will deploy uniformed and undercover officers and use bomb-sniffing dogs at the event scheduled to celebrate the Blackhawks' Stanley Cup win. Police also say they'll be searching backpacks and large bags, so they're asking fans not to bring them. Officials also say there will be zero-tolerance for alcohol along the parade route or in Grant Park at the rally. Chicago Police Superintendent Garry McCarthy says the same police team that planned for last year's NATO summit has been planning the Blackhawks rally for weeks. McCarthy says his department has been talking with law enforcement in Boston to see what they learned after a bombing at the Boston Marathon earlier this year.
Officials are also encouraging fans to take public transportation.
An estimated 2 million fans turned out to celebrate in downtown Chicago when the Blackhawks won the Stanley Cup in 2010.

One of the many things no one tells you about having kids is just how hard it makes it to have a wee. If you are someone for whom toilets have always been perfectly accessible – if, for instance, you're neither trans nor intersex, and don't have mobility restrictions – it can come as an enormous shock to find that suddenly toilets are the holy grail. The chances are this is temporary. Your children will grow and leave you to wee in peace. Nevertheless, in the interim it can be enraging. You've always assumed that the world was built around the needs of "people." Suddenly it's obvious that this is an illusion only the privileged can entertain.
Today my sons got yelled at in Morrison's and (for once) it wasn't their fault. All they were doing was waiting outside the toilet cubicle while Mummy paid a call. Suddenly I heard a woman's voice telling them they had no right to be there and should go to the men's. My sons are four and six. I have no intention of sending them off to the men's toilets unaccompanied, or leaving them to wait outside. I was amazed – unfortunately, too amazed to think of a cutting response to the woman, who'd left by the time I unlocked the toilet door. (more…)

Huntsville city school leaders want to know what happened to $40,000 in grant money.
The money was supposed to go to a non-profit organization helping at-risk kids; however an internal memo obtained by WAFF states the non-profit isn't what it seemed.
The memo states Madison County Commissioner Bob Harrison established the non-profit, Northwest Huntsville Community Services Organization. The main purpose was tutoring children. It got thousands of dollars in funding from not only Huntsville City Schools, but the city and the Madison County Commission.
Huntsville city school leaders want to know how that money was spent.
"A school system is not a piggy bank for adults. The school system has resources that taxpayers provide for kids, and that seems to be forgotten again, so I think it's a very serious matter," said Huntsville City Schools Superintendent Dr. Casey Wardynski.
Dr. Wardynski said WAFF brought this matter to his attention – a matter that surfaced once we obtained a 2009 internal memo regarding an audit. The audit pre-dates Wardynski taking over as the head of Huntsville City Schools.
In it, the schools' auditor alerts the former head of business affairs to what he calls "questionable practices of a non-profit." In 2008, the district awarded a total of $40,000 to the Northwest Huntsville Community Services Organization with the Circle Project, which offered things like after-school tutoring.
But the auditor claims it was more than just a non-profit.
"It appears, and there is strong evidence from the face of those documents, that the grantee is ineligible for those grants," said Dr. Wardynski.
In bold, it says these funds are not to be utilized to partner with governmental nor quasi-governmental agencies. The audit calls attention to who signed the grant contracts – Madison County Commissioner Bob Harrison – saying the District 6 commissioner established the not-for-profit organization. The organization is located in Madison County Commission District 6 offices. The key contacts for the agency are employed by Madison County Commission. Purchases of supplies by the organization are billed to Madison County Commission.
The memo also addresses a conflict of interest where a school employee who served on the committee to vote on what organizations would be awarded grant funds also worked as a county employee in the office of District 6.
Wardynski described what he saw in the memo thusly: "Something going on in District 6 to advantage adults, to the disadvantage of children, to the disadvantage of Huntsville City Schools students and it is intolerable. I take a very dim view of it and this school system is not the personal plaything of county commissioners."
Speaking of contacts for the agency, the memo goes on to say, "These ladies, while employed by Madison County, do no work for the county. Their compensation and fringe benefits are supposed to be reimbursed by NHCSO, however the fringe benefits were paid from the Madison County General Fund and have not been reimbursed."
"In fact, we saw duo-billing for employees. All that raises serious questions," said Dr. Wardynski.
2008 was a much different time for the district. "It points back to a pattern that brought this district to its knees financially," said Wardynski.
…Which brings us back to the $40,000 Huntsville City Schools awarded the non-profit, a figure Wardynski said could have equaled a teacher's salary.
"Things such as co-mingling of funds, sharing addresses, sharing of employees, all these things that would elude to the fact that maybe you don't have a real company, these were all present in this instance," said Jason Taylor, Huntsville City Schools' Chief Financial Officer.
"We will be looking for the recovery of funds – if, indeed there was impropriety here, this money was for kids, for distribution of non-profit, non-governmental agencies, and that's where they need to be," said Dr. Wardynski.
Commissioner Bob Harrison was reached for comment, but declined an interview, saying the audit speaks for itself. He also said this is an attempt by some to distract from what he is trying to do for the northwest community in the interest of children.
The City of Huntsville reviewed documentation and determined no action was needed. As for Huntsville City Schools, the district has already put the information in the hands of law enforcement and has ordered a forensic audit to recover the money.
"When things like this that pre-dated by superintendency come to my attention, I'm going to act on it," said Wardynski.

In a previous post, we talked about the makeup of your credit score and what goes into it. Your credit score is important for many reasons and today we will talk about how to raise it. An improved credit score means you are more likely to receive better rates on everything from mortgages and credit cards to loans.
There is no magic formula and major improvement on your credit score takes time. Some of the following tips may seem like small things, but doing them consistently goes a long way to helping your cause. By using these tips from Iowa State Bank you can put yourself on the right track to improving your credit score today.
Tips on raising your credit score:
- Never miss a payment, even if you're only paying the minimum. Commit to making a payment every month, and when you're done paying down your balance, you'll seem like much less of liability to lenders than if you consistently miss payment dates.
- Only use about 10 percent of what your credit limit is. The smaller the percentage is, the better your credit score. For example, if you have a store credit card that has a $4,000 limit, only use around $400 of that and pay it off right away.
- Pay off cards with small balances. Gather up all those credit cards and pay off the balances, so you are not piling so many cards onto your score. Choose one or two cards that you can have as go to cards for purchases.
- Only open new credit accounts as needed. Opening various store cards or other types of credit cards can hurt you. Make sure you keep track of your finances and use those cards rarely.
- If you don't have a credit card, apply for one and use it lightly. Use it for something like filling up for gas every week. This is an expense that's already in your budget, so using your credit card then immediately paying off the balance is an easy way to use credit without it getting the best of you.
Raising your credit score can benefit you greatly when it is time to buy a new house or new car and you need a loan. Again, this process takes time, so give yourself about six months of hitting all the above milestones. Then, contact Iowa State Bank if you have a loan need and we can we see what kind of rate you are eligible for.

Last night my sweetie and I felt like splurging. We eat out about once a month--twice if someone else is paying :D We decided on Red Lobster: not your typical fast food fare, but not terribly expensive, and practically college-kid free (a coveted rarity in this town).
I took the occasion to dress up a little, as you can see to the right. I almost never wear get the chance to wear this dress, and I never wear heels. It took me a good ten minutes walking around the apartment to get my balance. I really like the outfit, though--look how small it makes my waist appear.
A model, I will never be. I have such a hard time cooking up a decent smile in front of a camera.
There was no wait at the restaurant, which took me by surprise. We were shuttled into a corner booth with a fare dose of kitschy decor. My sweetie ordered the Seafood Sampler; check out the chic sea critters on the booth cover behind him.
The entrees at Red Lobster can be way too big, so ordering an appetizer instead was a smart choice on his part.
I was determined to be adventurous, so I ordered something I've never had before: the half-portion of talapia. It was topped with shrimp, which I've also never had before. Yes, I know I'm strange; I've just always had a mental block against eating the entire body of an arthropod in one mouthful. Even last night my sweetie had to cheerlead me into trying it--I just kept seeing it crawl around on my plate.
I'm sorry to say, I found I don't care much for shrimp. My sweetie assures me the flavor was overwhelmed by the garlic salsa, and they taste much better plain. I took his word for it and nudged the rest of them to the side of my plate. The talapia, though, was heavenly. It tasted a lot less like "fish" than I'm used to (I've been a strictly salmon and tuna girl up until now), and was extraordinarily tender. I also loved the wild rice. It probably had a pound of butter in it, but it was a nice break from my usual plain ol' steamed.
Have you ever eaten something that had so much flavor you ate about half of it and felt like the meal should be over already? That's what happened to me last night. I finished all my veggies, but only 3/4 of the rice and 1/2 of the fish. I felt sad to let them sit, but knew if I forced myself to finish my stomach would act up later (it hates being stuffed). And unfortunately, food like that doesn't reheat well, so I pulled a Tree Grows in Brooklyn and convinced myself that abandoning the remains was a form of indulgence.
I'm really unfamiliar with seafood, so we will probably select Red Lobster again in the future. My sweetie has plans to introduce me to lobster, oysters, and other marine-dwelling delicacies.
