MADISON, WI (WTAQ) - Gogebic Taconite has applied for a third state permit, as part of the preparations for its new iron ore mine in Ashland and Iron counties.
This one would manage stormwater along a 130-year-old access road that used to be a railroad grade.
The mining firm wants to level out soil from the old railroad ballast material, and put in three new culverts. The road is now used for logging.
Gogebic Taconite says the project would reduce muddy conditions after it rains – and it would create better drainage.
The DNR will have the final say on whether the work can proceed. The firm is still carrying out the work from its initial state permit – the exploratory drilling of eight large holes. That project is expected to be finished by the end of the week.
Gogebic Taconite has also asked the DNR for the okay to dig up to five tons of rock to test the site's mineral quality. At last word, the state was waiting for more details before approving that phase.

The Montreal Canadiens welcome a familiar face back to town on Monday as they prepare for their game against the Carolina Hurricanes.
Viewers in the Canadiens region can watc the game on TSN Canadiens at 7:30pm et/8:30pm at.
Jaroslav Spacek, who spent more than two years in the red, white and blue of the Habs, makes his first visit to the Bell Centre since he was dealt to Carolina for Tomas Kaberle in December.
The local media was eager to hear from Spacek, since he publicly criticized the team in a Jan. 20 radio interview in Washington.
"I'm pretty happy to be gone from there, from the whole circus," he said at the time. In the same interview he criticized the outcry over hiring an Anglophone coach.
When asked about his remarks on Sunday, the 38-year-old native of the Czech Republic showed support for head coach Randy Cunneyworth.
"I like Cunney [as] a coach," said Spacek. "Lots of respect for him and it's a little sad, maybe, that he'll maybe lose his job".
The team has gone 10-12-2 since Cunneyowrth was named interim head coach on December 17, but has caught fire of late, riding a four-game win streak heading into Monday's tilt.
Spacek reiterated his belief that the team could perform under an English-speaking bench boss.
"Hire an interpreter," he said. "You can have a good coach and it doesn't have to be a French-speaking coach. But I know the community here is more French-speaking and I respect that, too."
Spacek praised the fans' enthusiasm, but reiterated his stance that the team was in disarray when he was dealt.
"This city is always special to play in," Spacek said. "If the hockey doesn't go well, it's a mess, as I said."
Spacek has scored one goal and three assists in 15 games since heading to Raleigh. Kaberle, meanwhile has scored one goal and added 12 assists in 21 games with the Canadiens.

Emilio Martinez's first exposure to art came early in life, when his parents took him to the Visionary Art Museum and the Baltimore Museum of Art.
"I think I was, like, an infant," said the Roland Park native.
But his first exposure may have been even earlier, in his DNA.
"I've always had an affinity for art," he said.
Now 18 and a senior at Friends School, Martinez has won a gold medal in the 2012 Scholastic Art & Writing Awards.
The awards are promoted as the largest and longest-running arts national scholarship program for teens.
He will receive his medal at Carnegie Hall in New York on June 1. Past recipients include author Truman Capote, poet Sylvia Plath, pop artist Andy Warhol, actor Robert Redford and photographer Richard Avedon.
In addition, his winning sculpture, "Inside-Out House," will be on exhibit at the Parsons New School for Design in New York through June 16.
But the best is yet to come for Martinez — a distinction so prestigious that he still can't believe his good fortune.
He has been accepted to arguably the most prestigious and competitive art school in the nation, the Cooper Union for the Advancement of Science and Art, also in New York.
As well as a feather in his cap and Friends School's, his acceptance to Cooper Union is financial coup for his family.
Fortified by a $577 million endowment as of 2010, the 153-year-old art, engineering and architecture school offers full $37,500-a-year scholarships to each student.
Cooper Union is considering charging tuition for the first time in more than a century, reportedly due to money troubles in a weak economy. But even if the college does start charging tuition, it would not start with next year's freshmen.
"The class of fall 2012 will not be charged tuition," said Jolene Travis, a Cooper Union spokeswoman.
"I'm glad that my parents don't have to pay for college," Martinez said.
Childhood dreams
Martinez said his fascination with art can be traced all the back to his early visits to art museums. One that impressed him the most as a child was Alexander Calder's "100 Yard Dash," a massive, red steel sculpture at the BMA.
Martinez wrote his college entrance essay about his growth as an artist, "starting with my memory of that," he said.
"I still visit all the time."
As a student at a local Montessori school, Martinez said, he visited art classes at the Maryland Institute College of Art.

Presentation Dinner 2014
The Foundation celebrated its 30th Anniversary at its Annual Presentation Dinner on 5 April 2014.
Click here for more details and photos ...
Welcome to The Rebecca L Cooper Medical Research Foundation
The charter of The Rebecca L. Cooper Medical Research Foundation is to advance, promote and encourage medical research, throughout Australia.
Since its inception in 1984, The Rebecca L Cooper Medical Reseach Foundation has awarded over $17 million in funding for medical research.
The Foundation does not directly conduct medical research. It supports medical research by providing annual research grants within an ever widening group of research categories that it decides to support. Currently, these include:
- Brain Sciences: psychiatry and neurology
- Endocrinology and Diabetes
- Geriatrics
- Lung Disease (other than cancer)
- Rheumatology
- Vision Sciences
The cash flow for such funding is achieved through the income derived from a large portfolio of properties bequeathed by the Foundation's benefactor, Mrs Rebecca Lillian Cooper.
This portfolio of 108 properties comprises primarily older style terrace houses in the inner Eastern Suburbs of Sydney. The endowment of Mrs Cooper's estate comprised mainly properties in derelict or dilapidated condition. The Foundation works tirelessly in an effort to improve the properties in order to maximise the rental returns and therefore the amount available for medical research grants.
The annual income of the Foundation has steadily increased from below $80,000 in 1984 to more than $3 million at present. A large part of our income continues to be used for maintenance and improvement of the properties. However, with the accelerated income return that this work provides and the determination of the current Directors to broaden the Foundation's asset base, the time will come when a far larger proportion of our income will be available to the medical research fraternity. We envisage that we will then be able to invest beyond our original endowment, thereby ensuring the continued growth of the Foundation.
2014 is the 30th year in which the Foundation has given medical research grants. It took seven years to achieve our first $1 million in grants, commencing in 1984 when two grants were made totalling $9,640. By March 2013 the Foundation had awarded grants for medical research exceeding $15.9 million. In the 2012 year the grants awarded exceeded $1 million per annum for the first time. In 2014 a total of $1.054million has been allocated to fund 39 grants, 5 PhD scholarships, 1 fellowship and 3 awards.
Business of the Foundation is conducted by a Board of Directors. The board is made up of directors who possess a range of skills and backgrounds.
The Foundation has a personal approach towards the granting of research funds and this is appreciated by our recipients, often expressed at our Presentation Dinner held in late March each year.
The testimonials below highlight the impact of Foundation funding on the careers of two researchers, and the subsequent advancements achieved in their chosen field of medical research.
Our Impact
Asthma research ~ Prof Phil Hanbro
I was appointed as a junior academic at the University of Newcastle in November 1999. My first tasks were to establish my teaching and develop my own research program in lung diseases. To do this, I needed to secure funding so that I could establish a research platform.
So I applied for many different grants and after many disappointments, I received a real break when in 2002, I was awarded my first research grant of $16,000 and was awarded the 'Leo Dintenfass Plaque' from the Rebecca L. Cooper Medical Research Foundation.
This seeding grant really kick started my research, allowing me to undertake several projects and produce preliminary data. These data were ultimately used in large grant applications and from this, my group grew from strength to strength.
Over the years, I have been fortunate enough to receive several grants from the Rebecca Cooper Foundation, each of which has enabled the commencement of new phases of my research and has allowed my program to mature and diversify.
Indeed, with an investment from the Foundation to date totalling $116,000, made up of research grants and phd scholarships, I have been successful as a primary or co-Chief Investigator in obtaining $3.7 million in project grants and $1.5 million in equipment and infrastructure funding.
This represents a 45-fold magnitude of the initial seed funding and includes 5 NHMRC project and 1 ARC discovery grants. This investment has also translated into the training of younger scientists which to date has resulted in 3 phd and 8 Honours students having graduated from my lab, with another 6 phd and 1 Honours student on the way.
It was most satisfying to see one of my former phd students, Dr Jay Horvat, also get a start from the Foundation with his first grant in 2009. It is very rewarding to see the cycle repeat itself.
We have made excellent progress with the assistance of this funding. My group has made important and novel observations of the pathogenesis of bacterial and viral infections and how they differentially affect the development and exacerbation of asthma.
We showed for the first time, that the age of first infection and the timing of infection relative to allergic sensitisation, play pivotal roles in determining the effects of chlamydial infection on asthma. We also showed that the nature of infection is important and that Chlamydia and Haemophilus infections promote or modify asthma, whereas Streptococcus pneumoniae is protective against asthma.
This identifies new therapeutic opportunities for asthma where we can either target (Chlamydia, Haemophilus) or use (S. Pneumoniae) bacteria for the prevention and treatment of asthma.
We have produced 23 publications in the last 5 years on these studies and several more are under review. Therefore, and most importantly, the seed funding from the Foundation has been invaluable in establishing my research and my group and has translated into significant outcomes for lung disease and human health.
None of these outcomes would have been possible without this initial funding from the Foundation.
I would like to sincerely thank the Foundation and look forward to a very promising future and an increasingly productive relationship with the Rebecca L. Cooper Medical Research Foundation.
Schizophrenia research ~ Prof Brian Dean
In 1987 I moved from the Department of Diabetes and Endocrinology at the Royal Melbourne Hospital to the Mental Health Research Institute. One reason for this move was to begin studies for my PhD.
My chosen area of study was to understand the biochemical changes that were causing the symptoms of schizophrenia. My premise was that schizophrenia, like any other disease, must have an understandable cause and in identifying the cause we would be able to devise improved treatments for the disorder. As my decision to change research direction became known the general view was that I had entered a field of research endeavour that was the graveyard of many research careers.
My initial efforts to raise funds to support my research certainly seemed to confirm the idea that funding biochemical based research into schizophrenia was not high on the agenda of many funding agencies. In 1988 I first became aware of the Rebecca L. Cooper Medical Research Foundation and that they had made schizophrenia a special priority for funding. I immediately prepared an application for equipment funding. To my great pleasure this application was funded and I attended my first 'Foundation Dinner' in 1989 and collected a cheque that enabled the purchase of a scintillation counter, a critical piece of laboratory equipment. Up until that funding was available, I had to travel around Melbourne begging any available time on the equipment in other Laboratories.
More importantly, one of the critical steps that a junior researcher makes on the road to an independent career is to raise funding in support of their research. Indeed, this application was the foundation stone to the establishment of my own Laboratory at the Mental Health Research Institute.
This Laboratory subsequently became known as the Rebecca L. Cooper Research Laboratories and has now published over 130 peer reviewed papers and has had successes in raising competitive funding from many funding bodies, including the National Health and Medical Research Council and the National Institutes of Health in the USA.
Two decades later I continue my research into the causes of schizophrenia and I am pleased to say the 'Foundation' continues to support such medical research. It is apparent that they still support junior researchers in the beginning of their careers and help them realise their research dreams.

Company uses 3-D printing to make steel handgun
The fabrication of these pieces is a revolution of sorts, and the military is probably watching closely to see what happens next.
Now the folks at Solid Concepts have successfully produced one of these handguns (pictured), all steel and all 3-D-printed.
Fabricating 3-D weapons has come a long way in a short period.
Just within the past year, a Texas company called Defense Distributed made headlines for creating 3-D-printed weapons. But it had problems producing pieces that could stand the heat and pressure.
From the Solid Concepts press release:
It is composed of 33 17-4 Stainless Steel and Inconel 625 components, and decked with a Selective Laser Sintered (SLS) carbon-fiber filled nylon hand grip. The successful production and functionality of the 1911 3D Printed metal gun proves the viability of 3D Printing for commercial applications.
Already, special operations teams out in the middle of who-knows-where have support from "expeditionary labs" that draw and print custom pieces of gear, based entirely on the military operator's specifications.
President Barack Obama has also promised $200 million for a 3-D printing initiative in the Defense Department.
Certainly, the fabrication of stainless-steel pieces is a revolution of sorts, and planners in the military are probably watching closely for what happens next.
As for .45-caliber pistols, Solid Concepts maintains that the pieces are not machined but entirely "grown" in 3-D printers.
Laser sintering is one of the most accurate manufacturing processes available, and more than accurate enough to build the 3-D Metal Printed interchangeable and interfacing parts within our 1911 series gun. The gun proves laser sintering can meet tight tolerances.
3-D Metal Printing has less porosity issues than an investment cast part and better complexities than a machined part. The barrel sees chamber pressure above 20,000 psi every time the gun is fired.
"We're proving this is possible. The technology is at a place now where we can manufacture a gun with 3-D printing," said Kent Firestone, Solid Concepts' vice president of additive manufacturing. "As far as we know, we're the only 3-D printing service provider with a federal firearms license. Now if a qualifying customer needs a unique gun part in five days, we can deliver."
Mentioning the license is no mistake. Certainly the idea of 3-D printing of small arms has caused a bit of a stir in the weapons-control community. Cody Wilson, the owner of Defense Distributed, ran into this problem, but at the time of his troubles -- last summer and late last year -- he did not yet hold a federal firearms license.
Certainly the implications of this new technology -- both for domestic and federal use, as well as for military and humanitarian use -- are nothing short of staggering.
More from Business Insider
They can slant anything they want to, this article is missing some important information...
1. The printer used is expensive, we are talking about hundreds off thousands of dollars.
2. it was done by a team of engineers who have been in this type of production for awhile. The company itself has been around since the early 90's.
3. The company did this to show how dmls (the type of printing) has real world application and that the technology does work. What better way than a gun, with the tolerances and stress it requires to fire one.
What ever happened to when journalism used to tell the whole story and not just an abridge version to suit their needs?
Don't really see this as a "practical" application of a developing technology , but that won't stop the "gun-grabbers" from snide comments . They won't be happy till there are no guns anywhere , and the unicorns graze peacefully , with butterfies flittering everywhere .
And "they" will never notice as Comrade Obumbler leads us quietly to the Gulag , "for the good of many" , "over the advantage of a few" !
And these are the same people who thought the ACA was going to "fix" another "crisis" for everyone . Guess the word "Consequence" never enters their "nirvana" mind-set , but even the word "Gun" causes terror for them . As does words like responsibility , personal freedom , Constitution , Bill of Rights .......
t may come down too. What is fascinating to me is the other possibilities. Think about someone restoring an old car and he needs a part. turnaround time could be days instead of months. Think how mush faster it will be to make prototypes. The possibilities are almost endless.
For all practical purpose, gun control is dead, which, effectively, kills socialism.
Socialism, can not exist with an armed citizenry..
The socialists count on being able to pass laws like Canada's hate speech laws, which will never stand in the face of an armed citizenry.
First, a FFL is not required to manufacture a gun. To commercially produce and sell wholesale, yes. To manufacture for your own use, no. I've made several for my own use in the past two years. No big deal.
Second, the printer used here costs somewhere around three-quarters of a million bucks. I doubt anyone is going to go to that expense to produce a firearm that can be legally purchased for around $500 if you're not brand conscious (Hi Standard rather than Colt).

Publisher's Description
A Wedding for Julia, the third book in a romantic series from popular author Vannetta Chapman, takes a last look at the Amish community of Pebble Creek and the kind, caring people there. As they face challenges from the English world, they come together to reach out to their non-Amish neighbors while still preserving their cherished Plain ways.
Julia Beechy is so stunned, she can hardly breathe. Her mother's announcement that she must either marry or move from the family home upon her mother's imminent death catches Julia by surprise. How can she leave the only home she has ever known? What about her dream of opening her own Plain cafe?
When Caleb Zook offers support, comfort, and a solution, Julia is afraid to accept it. Can she marry someone she barely knows? Is it the right thing to do? Is this God's plan for her future?
Caleb thought his time for marrying was long past, but he feels a stirring in his heart he cannot shake for this beautiful, forlorn woman. Amid the circumstances of this life-altering decision, the people of Pebble Creek weather the worst storm to hit Wisconsin in the last hundred years. Where will Julia and Caleb be on the other side of it?

MagisterMichiganAge: 55-65Gender: female5 Stars Out Of 5Love comes late in Pebble CreekMay 27, 2014MagisterMichiganAge: 55-65Gender: femaleQuality: 5Value: 5Meets Expectations: 5There is so much to like about this book - "old" characters that I have already grown to love, and new ones that I have so much in common with, all set in the gentle world of Pebble Creek. Julia is a 37 year old spinster still living at home with her recently widowed mother, Ada. Like me, she loves to cook and is chronically tidy - and she worries about her shrinking mother who struggles with signs of dementia. She has a dream of opening a cafe...and her mother has a dream of seeing her married! Quiet Caleb Zook makes both of these wishes come true with about 200 pages left to go. What else does Vannetta Chapman have in store for us? The old homestead becomes more than the site of a successful cafe. The Zooks take in a struggling teen-aged relative, and Ada's gifts of prayer and compassion reach another generation. Then a hundred-year storm threatens to undo all the hard work and happiness they have achieved - or will it? With characteristic plot twists and true-to-life emotions, Chapman makes me glad once again to visit Pebble Creek.
SunnieUSAAge: 55-65Gender: female5 Stars Out Of 5A Wedding For JuliaMay 21, 2014SunnieUSAAge: 55-65Gender: femalet has actually been a little while since I read A Wedding for Julia, but now I am trying to recall things and reading a bit of it again so that I hopefully remember things correctly. I do remember that I really enjoyed this book and that is why I wanted to write about it on my blog.
This book is part of a series of Amish books but was actually the first book of the series that I read. I think that I might need to take some time to read books 1 and 2 because this one was so enjoyable to read.
The main character is Julia Beechy. Her mother, Ada, tells her that she has to marry or move from the family home when she passes. Her mother Ada insists that the house be sold and that Julia moves back to Pennsylvania where relatives are still living. But Julia has lived in Pebble Creek her whole life and had hoped to realize a dream of opening a cafe. Because of her mother's failing health, Julia is very concerned as to what direction her future will lead her. This causes lots of stress and worry for Julia. She is not sure how she will go about changing this situation that her mother unexpectedly caused.
Caleb Zook, who, like Julia, is also getting older than the expected marriage age of the Amish, suggests that they marry in order to help Julia out of this predicament. But Julia is unsure whether she could marry someone she doesn't love even though Caleb is a helpful man, and a very hard worker. As they get to know one another, perhaps some feelings are being kindled that surprise both of them.
A horrible tornado comes to Pebble Creek like has not been seen in this area of Wisconsin in more than one hundred years. The Amish people must now do what Amish people seem to do very well and that is to help their friends and neighbors and pray that all survive the terrible destruction.
The characters, Caleb and Julia seem to mesh together well as they work together after the storm. The community comes together when the need is there, also. As I read this book, I couldn't put it down. I am also grateful to authors such as Vannetta Chapmann who write books of a Christian nature that have good moral values, as well as guidelines for each of us on working together and building strong family relationships. An excellent book! I just loved it! It's a wonderful story and well worth reading!
MrsTinaFrederick, MDAge: 55-65Gender: female5 Stars Out Of 5A Wedding For Julia by Vannetta ChapmanMarch 19, 2014MrsTinaFrederick, MDAge: 55-65Gender: femaleQuality: 5Value: 5Meets Expectations: 5A Wedding for Julie: The Pebble Creek Amish Series by Vannetta Chapman*****
Julia Beechy lives at home with her mamm (mother), Ada, who suffers from arthritis and what appears to be early Alzheimer's. Julia loves to cook and bake and it has been a longtime dream of hers to open a cafe in her childhood home in Pebble Creek, Wisconsin. However, she is not sure how to approach her mamm with the idea or even if she would agree with Julia's plan. But before she can talk to her about turning their home into a cafe, Ada shocks Julia with news about what will become of their home once Ada is gone too. What will become of Julia's dream? What does God have in store for her?
As Caleb Zook drives his horse and buggy delivering groceries to his Amish community, his mind wonders as he longs for a friend and hopefully one day to find a wife. As he nears the Beechy home he prays earnestly for a friend. As he learns of Julia's shocking news, he tries to comfort her as best he can. Can they together come up with a solution that will satisfy Ada? God answers Caleb's prayer in an unexpected way. Will he recognize God's answer?
As Caleb and Julia struggle to come to some kind of decision that could very well alter their lives in ways they can not foresee, one of the worse storms in years hits Pebble Creek. Can they pick up the pieces of the destruction the storm has left behind? Is there hope for Julia, for Caleb?
I like the way Vannetta Chapman develops her characters in real-to-life struggles we each can identify with. There is much to glean from her stories, stories of hope, life-challenges we all face, friends and family as well as community that comes together when tragedy strikes and lends a helping hand. Woven through these struggles is hope, love, faith and God's love.

debwilsonSummerfield, FLAge: 18-24Gender: female5 Stars Out Of 5December 20, 2013debwilsonSummerfield, FLAge: 18-24Gender: femaleQuality: 5Value: 5Meets Expectations: 5Julia Beechy's life is completely uprooted when she receives the news that she must either marry or move out of the family home. Not only is she about to loose her mother, she will also loose the home she's lived in all her life. Her dream of opening her own cafe is slipping away like so much sand on a beach, and she is powerless to stop the frightening changes that will be taking place in her life.
Caleb Zook thinks it is much too late in his life to marry, but he is compelled to offer his protection to Julia through a marriage proposal. The only hitch is that they barely know one another, and a marriage to Caleb simply for the sake of getting married seems more daunting that anything else Julia has ever faced. With a storm threatening Pebble Creek, Wisconsin, and so many things up in the air, will Caleb and Julia have a chance to make a go of a relationship despite everything happening in their lives?
The thing I liked the best about this story was the strong sense of community and family represented by the Pebble Creek characters. There were people from the previous two books whose stories were expounded upon and revisited, but in no way overshadowed the plot. Julia and Caleb's relationship throughout the book was very sweet and when they finally had their first spat I couldn't help but love them even more. Chapman conveys emotions well to the reader through her characters, and arrested my attention with not only her writing style, but her excellent portrayal of human relationships.

Drivers can expect heavy traffic around downtown Thursday evening due to the sold-out Titans game that begins at 7 p.m.
Metro police plan to implement the usual traffic plan beginning at 4:30 p.m., when they will close the Woodland Street bridge to vehicle traffic through the conclusion of the game.
Officers will be working to detour commuters away from stadium traffic. Police say if James Robertson Parkway becomes overcrowded, traffic will be diverted to Jefferson Street or the Metro Center area via Third Avenue.
Pedestrians will be able to cross the Cumberland River via the Woodland Street bridge as well as the Shelby Street pedestrian bridge in order to access LP Field.
Parking lots will open to vehicles with parking passes at 3 p.m. and the stadium gates open at 5 p.m. There is no cash parking at LP Field, so those who drive to the stadium without a parking pass will be turned away to park elsewhere, police said.
Fans without parking passes are encouraged to park downtown, then ride an InShuttle Transportation shuttle bus. Shuttles will travel from the state parking areas at 10th and Charlotte and 4th and Harrison beginning at 5:30 p.m.
As a reminder, the NFL has a new restriction on what can be brought into stadiums. Under the new rules, fans cannot bring coolers, briefcases, backpacks, seat cushions, fanny packs, luggage, camera bags or purses larger than a handbag into stadiums.
One-gallon plastic bags are OK, as are clear plastic, vinyl or PVC bags no larger than 12" by 6" by 12".
There will be certain exceptions to the rules just for medical equipment. There will be a special entrance at gates 1, 5 and 7 at LP Field specified for people with that equipment to be inspected.

Dir: Clara Law
Scr: Eddie Fong
Prod Co: Tedpoly
Cast: Nagase Masatoshi, Li Pui-wai
1992 / Colour / 35mm / Cantonese, Japanese, English / Chi & Eng Subtitle / 107min
Autumn Moon is the fourth film in Clara Law's "emigration series" following They Say the Moon is Fuller Here (1985), The Other Half and the Other Half (1988) and Farewell China (1990). This time, Law leaves traditional narrative structure behind, opting for an exquisite study of two very different characters. Nagase Masatoshi stars as Tokio, a young Japanese tourist who encounters Pui-wai (Li Pui-wai), a 15-year-old girl about to immigrate to Canada. Thanks to the impeccable culinary skills of Pui-wai's grandmother, the two wandering souls form a bond that transcends age, culture and language barriers. Made during the peak of the Hong Kong emigration rush, Autumn Moon uses the two lost souls to explore topics like the anxiety of a city facing the most important transition in its history and the price of leaving our roots behind.

exactly what Nigella claimed, a good, everyday brownie........
love Nigella's cooking!! so honest, like she is just cooking her everyday meal, not pretentious like some of the others.....
on February 13, 2012
I changed these brownies to be low carb and they turned out well. I subbed 1/2 cup soy protein and 1/2 cup almond meal for the flour. I used 1/2 cup Splenda and 1/2 cup Xylitol for the sweeteners. I left everything else the same. The level of chocolate was just right and I left out the chocolate chips. I only baked mine at 350 for 15 minutes and they were a little dry.This is a good base recipe that you can fiddle with. I recommend it.

If Nigella claimed these were the BEST brownies ever, I would have rated them a 2 or 3 at best - however, they live up their title - Everyday Brownies. Simple on hand ingredients, easy to put together, and a wonderful brownie texture. Brownies quick and easy - without the bells and whistles.

Super easy to put together and fabulous taste and texture. Very pleased with these brownies and will absolutely be making them many times to come!

With Mexican politicians on the take, of course they will be opposed.
If Governor Perry is serious, I would campaign for him personally. Finally, somebody who sees it for what it is. The Mexican government, army and law enforcement is inept and corrupt, and putting trained, mission minded US forces on the ground killing the Cartels seems like a sensible way to help slow the flow of drugs to the US and eliminate the criminal governance of Mexico.

Scope and Content Note
Contained in this sub-group are copies of outgoing correspondence from J. Lawrence Apple, who successively wrote under the titles of administrative advisor, associate director of international agriculture, and finally director of international programs. Dates covered are 1980 to 1991.
Historical Note
Jose Fabio Santo Trigo of Cuba became North Carolina State University's first international student in 1892. During the 1950s the university developed international textile and agricultural programs in Peru, and afterwards developed international programs in other countries.
In 1968 Jackson Rigney became NCSU's dean of international programs, reporting to the chancellor. By 1982, an Office of International Programs reported to the provost. During most of the 1980s J. Lawrence Apple was director of the program, and during the 1990s Ed Erickson and Tony Moyer. By 2002 the university had created the position of vice provost for international affairs, first held by L. George Wilson. In 2006 Bailian Li held the position on an interim basis, and in 2007 he became the vice provost.
From the 1970s to the 1990s a number of offices concerning international affairs also existed in the Division of Student Affairs. These included the International Student Office, International Student Advising (originally Foreign Student Advising), and Study Abroad.
As of 2007, the vice provost for International Affairs was the leader of international programs at NCSU. The Office of International Affairs promotes a global perspective into all functions of teaching, research, and extension/engagement, and it strengthens the university's international presence in a global society.
The Office of International Affairs has consisted of the following units: Administration Office (OIA), Office of International Services (OIS), the Study Abroad Office (SAO), and the North Carolina Japan Center (NCJC). The office has also led the coordination of the University Committee on International Programs and the International Operations Council.

My favorite castle is near the small village of Ouid Zuillen, outside Utrecht, The Netherlands. It is Slot Zuylen (www.slotzuylen.com). I like it because past relations of mine lived there, and some of the family is still on the Board. http://www.slotzuylen.nl/beeld/tuin//ster
My choice would definitely be Hearst Castle! I remember visiting this huge place in California back in 2000. My favorite spot inside the castle is the Neptune Pool.
I personally select and visit the most wonderful all castles. There are plenty of big and gorgeous castles in India. The royal state of Rajasthan has glorious castles telling the story of velour of the warriors who fought throughout their life.
Alhrambra in Granada, Spain that I've visited.

Hmm... my choice is Malpaga castle in Florence
It would have to be Warwick Castle in England. As a true Anglophile anything and everything British is at the top of my list.
I love most of them on your list, although I prefer the genuinely old ones built for fortification.
My local castle, Egremont, is a sad little ruin now, and the only wars it saw was when Robert the Bruce, or his minions, came rampaging over the Border from Scotland to burn and destroy a little....it's really just a park for a pleasant afternoon, or a staged medieval battle....we also have a Roman garrison nearby, up an impossible pass in the mountains.
Love Warwick, Windsor and Alnwick; I shall have to go local and add Hadrian's wall, and our county castle of Carlisle.....officially still barred to anyone named Armstrong after 6pm....
The highlight of our trip was our stay at Castle Hotel Auf Schonburg. It was amazing: great ambience, service and attention to detail. My daughters (age 4 and 7) said it was a dream come true.

Glossary of Insurance Terms
The claims adjudication is a process when a PBM receives a claim, makes a decision on coverage and advises payment. We use an online adjudication process that begins when we submit the BIN, PCN and/or Group# and patient ID# to the PBM. The PBM uses these numbers to determine whether a claim has been accepted or rejected.
a number that tells the pharmacy database which PBM is to receive the claim for a particular prescription. Despite the name, banks are not involved in the insurance billing process.
money that an individual is required to pay for services, after a deductible has been paid. In some health care plans, co-insurance is called copayment. Coinsurance is often specified by a percentage. For example, the employee pays 20 percent toward the charges for a service and the employer or insurance company pays 80 percent.
The amount of out of pocket expenses for prescription drugs a patient pays at the time the prescription is dispensed, with the PBM paying the remaining cost to the pharmacy. A flat co-pay is generally not driven by the quantity dispensed, but by the drug dispensed. For example, if a person has a three tiered co-pay program they may pay $50 for 3-Follistim 900s, but $75 for 3-Gonal-f 900s.
the amount of expenses that must be paid out of pocket before an insurer will pay any expenses.
a person relying on a policy for coverage; may include spouse and/or children of the subscriber.
a number defined by the PBM to differentiate plans. (Not all entities use a group number.) These numbers ensure we will be correctly reimbursed in a timely and efficient manner.
anyone covered under an insurance plan.
a company that administers, or handles, the drug benefit programs for an employer or health plan. PBMs process and pay prescription drug claims. The PBM reimburses all contracted pharmacies the same dollar amount for each prescription.
secondary identifier that may be used in routing of pharmacy transactions. The PCN is defined by the PBM as this identifier is unique to their business needs. Not all entities use a PCN.
The amount of money the PBM pays the pharmacy for a claim.
Shorthand term for prescription.
the policy holder of an insurance policy.

3 stocks that are running on 'E'
The charts of FedEx, Manpower and Goldman Sachs are showing dangerously overbought conditions.
So far in 2013, the S&P 500 has rallied just about 6.5% without any real consolidation in price. While the price action feels very extended, it's mostly because of the one-way uphill street we have taken so far this year. To put this in context, however, just looking back 12 months reveals that at this time last year, the S&P 500 was about 2% higher and ultimately rallied around 13% year-to-date before a correction arrived in early April.
Furthermore, the chart below of the S&P 500 also reveals a pattern that has now repeated three times since October 2011; the pattern is simply one of consolidation followed by major breakouts.
- January 2012: Led to a rally of just more than 12%
- August 2012: Led to a rally of about 6%
- January 2013: So far, a rally of around 5% as measured from the breakout point.
Simply put, while stocks are extended near-term, from a pure price-action point of view, they certainly could rally further before a better correction ensues.
As usual, the deeper into a rally we go, the more selective the group of stocks moving higher becomes -- meaning it's more difficult to pick the ones with further upside room. From this point of view, it might be a good idea to just trade the index at this stage in the rally as opposed to try finding stocks to outperform.
I also see plenty of overextended stocks that have yet to take a breather this year. While it might be somewhat early in leaning too much against these stocks in the near-term, if and when the broader market finally reaches an exhaustion point these stocks will be the ones worth shorting (or at least trimming for those already long the stocks).
Without further ado, here are three stocks that on my charts have reached dangerously overbought levels:
The Dow Jones Transports have now rallied 16% in a more-or-less straight shot since their breakout in December 2012. Ditto for FedEx (FDX), which is now a solid 15% higher without so much of a look back over its shoulder. FDX also is very extended past its 200-day simple moving average and has been flashing negative divergence to its momentum oscillators.
Next up, Manpower (MAN) -- which rallied more than 30% in a straight shot since breaking out past simple lateral resistance in December 2012 -- is much overextended. Just like FedEx, the stock has really stretched its move past the moving averages and is just running on fumes in the near-term.
Goldman Sachs
Last but by no means least, the broker/dealer group of stocks -- as measured by the AMEX Securities Broker/Dealer Index -- has staged a 20% vertical rally since December that rivals any rocket launch. Belonging to this group of course is Goldman Sachs (GS), which has jumped about 25% since late December.
Given the vertical moves of the above stocks, the odds of them moving much higher in the near-term are deteriorating by the minute. As selectivity among stocks with further upside subsides at this stage in the broader market rally, look for an increasing number of stocks resembling the above moves and stay away from them on the long side.

Before submitting a question or request, please review our frequently asked questions to see if one of these addresses your concern:
We're not a placement agency so we don't match up candidates with employment opportunities. We're a job board so candidates should first run a search for internships or entry level jobs which are of interest to them. Then, apply to each job for which you're qualified by clicking on the apply button above or below the job posting ad (on-line help wanted ad).
We were the first major job board to stop selling resume bank access in order to protect the privacy and security of the candidates using our site. You may wish to adjust your user settings to hide your profile, change what messages you receive, or even inactivate your profile if you wish, but keep in mind that we do not selling resume searching to employers or anyone else.
Employers typically post jobs to run for 30 days on CollegeRecruiter.com. When those 30 days expire or if the employer inactivates the posting earlier then you'll be unable to apply to that job opening. Go back to the search results and look for other jobs which are similar or perhaps even better and apply to them.
Yes, there's a fee to post job openings to our premium job board, run banner ads, or have us deliver on your behalf a targeted email or cell phone text message to our 100 percent, opt-in database. We offer a number of tools for employers with small, medium, or large hiring needs on our Employer Advertising Options page.
Email your article to our staff writer, William Frierson, at email@example.com.

A man who swore to uphold the law is behind bars, facing several criminal charges.
A news conference was held Tuesday morning concerning a former deputy, who was a Lieutenant for the Genesee County Sheriff's department.
The former sheriff's deputy has been identified as 43-year-old Michael Chatterson. Chatterson turned himself in to Sheriff's deputies Tuesday and faces a charge of second degree criminal sexual assault, and four counts of stalking.
Sheriff Robert Pickell said all of the incidents involved Chatterson and five female sheriff's deputies who were under Chatterson's command. He was a Lieutenant with the paramedic unit of the Sheriff's office.
Pickell says after an investigation was started on December 28, his detectives came up with the charges against Chatterson. Pickell says Chatterson asked a deputy to come to his office last November, shut the door, then inappropriately touched the female deputy. The Sheriff terminated Chatterson on January fourth.
Sheriff Pickell didn't mince any words when talking about his feelings about the case. "I am mad as hell at him, for using his position of authority to take advantage of a number of female employees. These women have a very difficult job, working in the area of public safety, they have a right to come to the workplace and be protected from sexual harassment and assault."
Pickell also said the deputy was reprimanded several years ago for inappropriate workplace behavior regarding a female deputy.

WASHINGTON, D.C. (KDAL) - Senator Al Franken of Minnesota is backing a new bipartisan plan to help prevent the spread of Asian Carp. Franken is co-sponsor of the "Strategic Response To Asian Carp Act" which would create a coordinated federal response to the threat of the invasive fish species. It would also enable the federal government to work more effectively with state and local groups in the fight to keep the carp out of the Great Lakes and other waterways. Under the bill, the U-S Fish and Wildlife Service would coordinate the multi-agency effort.

We're not out of the woods yet
Despite recent good economic news, Toyota Motor and other companies continue to ratchet down expectations.
Toyota Motor (TM) slashed its earnings outlook this week, citing the disruption to production caused by the worst floods in Thailand in almost 70 years. The timing couldn't be worse for the Japanese company, which is fighting the surging popularity of Hyundai Motor and its affiliate Kia Motors. In November, Toyota posted a 6.7% gain in deliveries, its first monthly sales increase since April. Meanwhile, Hyundai's sales gained 29%, surpassing analysts' estimates.
Post continues below.
The floods in Thailand disrupted production of several Toyota models, including the Camry and Corolla, exacerbating problems caused by the tsunami and earthquake in Japan earlier this year. The automaker's net income will slump to 180 billion yen in the 12 months ending March 31, lower than an earlier forecast of 390 billion yen and below the 393 billion yen estimate of financial analysts. Toyota also slashed its forecast for revenue and production.
There was bad news at DuPont (DD) and Texas Instruments (TXN) as well.
"We are seeing slower growth in certain segments during the fourth quarter, driven by global economic uncertainty," DuPont CEO Ellen Kullman said in a press release. Not surprisingly, the Wilmington, Del. company is seeing weakness in its consumer electronics and construction-related businesses.
Earnings for 2011 are projected to be $3.87 to $3.95 per share, down 10 cents from a forecast issued in October. Nonetheless, these results will represent an increase of as much as 20% over 2010. More details will be provided at next week's investor day meetings.
The story is similar at Texas Instruments. The Dallas company cited "broadly lower demand across a wide range of markets, customers and products, except for wireless applications processors." Fourth-quarter revenue is expected to be $3.19 billion to $3.33 billion, versus an earlier projection of $3.26 billion to $3.54 billion. That's below analysts' forecasts of $3.41 billion. Earnings are projected at 21 cents to 25 cents, down from an earlier forecast of 28 cents to 36 cents.

Rosie O'Donnell
Adult Nonfiction PN2287.O27 A3 2007
What other readers are saying about this title:
Ted's Review said:
Rosie O'Donnell is really a whiner. She wants it all and is disappointed by it all. She blames the world for all her problems. She even blames her own mother for dying. On the other hand she thinks Barbra Streisand is the greatest person who ever lived. Streisand gets mentioned on page 1 and repeatedly through this book. It's not that Rosie's book is bad, it's just really boring. She needs to grow up and take responsibility for her life. She also needs to learn that the world was not created for her own private use and personal happiness. She keeps saying how lucky she is. It sure would be nice if she showed some real appreciation for all that she has. Bottom line: I found this book a waste of time. This is the first autobiography I've read where I thought LESS of the person after reading their book.
