TOWNSHIP OF LEBANON (WKOW) – Dodge County authorities arrested a man after his girlfriend claimed he pointed an AK 47 rifle at her and made threats Friday night.
Authorities said the 29-year-old female called 911 around 11:49 p.m. to a residence on Warbler Way in Hidden Meadows Trailer Court on Friday after reporting that her boyfriend fired a rifle at her. As the woman was talking to the dispatcher, she was hiding behind a neighbor's snow bank and unaware of where her boyfriend was at the time.
Authorities said a neighbor in the area called dispatch and reported hearing a lot of gun shots being fired.
Dodge County Deputies and the City of Watertown Police responded to the scene. Officers set up a perimeter at the trailer park entrance and the Sheriff's Department SWAT Team was activated.
The 30-year-old suspect was contacted by a deputy via cell phone and eventually surrendered. Authorities found the AK 47 rifle in plain view behind a neighbor's storage building. Officials said the rifle had a live round inside the chamber, the safety was off and a loaded 30 round magazine was inserted into the rifle. Deputies also found three loaded 30 round magazines lying next to the rifle and a high powered scope was attached to the rifle.
Authorities contacted DA Klomberg and got a search warrant for the residence.
Authorities took the male suspect into custody and incarcerated him on numerous charges. The female party was arrested for obstructing and was transported to jail.
Dodge County Sheriff's Office was assisted by the City of Watertown Police Dept and Jefferson County Sheriff's Department Deputies remained on scene for six hours.
"All those who responded exposed themselves to potential ambush. I would like to single out Deputy Jamie Buelter who negotiated the man out of the home and Deputy Jason Boeck who was able to gain the cooperation of the subject which was of great assistance to investigators on a very cold night," said Dodge County Sheriff Todd Nehls.
The incident remains under investigation by the detective division.

90% of the Game Is Half Mental
And Other Tales from the Edge of Baseball Fandom
Preview (read now) Add to my own site Give this ebook to a friend Add to my wishlist Author's page Publisher's page
moreYogi Berra once said: "If you come to a fork in the road, take it." But for lifelong baseball aficionado Emma Span, it hasn't always been that simple. Now, in this winning collection of essays, Span chronicles her love of the sport, from childhood hobby to full-blown obsession, from big break (becoming The Village Voice's first staff sports reporter in years) to heartbreak (getting a pink slip within a year). She recounts elbowing her way to get a quote from Yankees captain Derek Jeter and waiting for Mets pitcher Pedro Martinez to put some pants on for an interview. She literally gives her lifeblood to see the Mets and hops a plane to Taiwan, home to perhaps the largest concentration of Yankees fans outside of the five boroughs. But after getting laid off and being forced to leave her press pass behind, Span wonders if her passion for the sport will fade. Highly unlikely. Baseball helped Span forge a lasting bond with her father, connect with total strangers, and endure even the toughest times. With a fresh voice, a devastating wit, and an alarmingly encyclopedic knowledge of the game, Span offers a new perspective on America's favorite pasttime—as a journalist, a baseball nerd, a daughter, and a fervent stay-until-the-last-out fan.

"Because we trust you, we're able to stay forever.
Whenever, wherever… we do everything together.
We were so happy. It was our world.
That's why we kept on running through the rough roads of the wilderness.
Even when I fell down, the thought of you always had me standing back up.
Just run and keep on looking forward while I protect you from behind.
Spread your wings out wide while I save you from the harsh winds.
You're the one in my life… like the stars that never fall."

Welcome to the Institute for Ethical and Civic Engagement (IECE).
Founded in 2005, the IECE's purpose is to nurture and encourage ethical and civic education at the University of Colorado Boulder, to prepare our students for a lifetime of service to society as thoughtful, ethical and engaged citizens and contribute to the vitality of the many communities we serve from the local level to the global. The IECE is building on the momentum already established to make ethical and civic engagement a defining characteristic of our educational community.
The health of our communities and democracy depends on an engaged and informed citizenry. The university should play an important role in supporting and providing students with the knowledge, skills, experiences and motivation to contribute to the common good.
The IECE serves as a catalyst and facilitator for this effort.
Faculty will now be able to label their civic engagement/service learning courses in the course search. This process will enable students to easily search for such courses and faculty to advertise them. This notation will also appear on student transcripts. For more information, click here.
The IECE's Student Worker Alliance Program (SWAP), received The Community Foundation Serving Boulder County's NOVA Award on 7/29/11. Twenty–two programs were nominated. The award is a plaque by John Haertling and a $5,000 check for SWAP. This is a testament to the students who coordinate the program and the 125 student volunteers. The NOVA Award honors innovation in programs/services or innovations in business operations, within Boulder County's non-profit sector. The NOVA Awards were established by The Community Foundation in 1997.
The Student Worker Alliance Program is a dynamic grassroots student run organization, which pairs CU students with predominantly immigrant university service workers to provide free and convenient English language classes.. We are thrilled to have this exciting and much needed program work with the institute. For more information click here!
The Institute for Ethical and Civic Engagement and the Office of International Education/Study Abroad Program have developed a New Service Learning Abroad which integrates Study Abroad and service to local communities (Service Learning). Service Learning Study Abroad Programs give students the unique and powerful opportunity to combine their passions for study abroad and service to global communities: a truly transformative experience. This is an exciting addition to Study Abroad programs and meets the increasing demand for such programs. For more information, click here

Make it a learning experience
If your child doesn't have a job, consider outlining your expectations for job hunting, says Ruth Nemzoff, the author of "Don't Bite Your Tongue: How to Foster Rewarding Relationships with Your Adult Children." This might include talking to one person each day about an internship, scheduling time for an Internet job search or volunteering at a workplace to gain experience.
For young adults struggling with credit card or student loan debt, a frank discussion about managing debt may be the best approach. Going to a financial planner for professional help is another option.
If your child moves home with kids in tow, keep in mind you may be caring for your grandchildren more than you planned, says Michon. Depending on your child's income level, government assistance for child care may be available.
Review the arrangement periodically
Consider meeting once a month to go over your child's situation. Discuss what is going well and what is not, Nemzoff says.
You might be eager for your child to leave, but in the meantime, focus on the perks of the living arrangement, Nemzoff says. "Think of it as a chance to get to know each other as adults and to redefine your relationship for the future," she says.
In Jenkins' case, her son moved out after a short time. "As it worked out, he just needed a roof over his head for a while," she says.
More from Bankrate.com:
Bigdaddy, you're right. Looks like some don't agree. I grant you that for some of those "kids" it would be difficult to accept. However, if they are grown up, they should be able to handle that mentally and therefore physically.
I have a 31-yr-old daughter AND son-in-law STILL living here. They are both teachers, and got their credentials JUST before the layoffs. So they haven't really been able to get steady work. I have them covered on auto, and they pay that. That's about all. They do take care of their own food. They are trying to save enough to get OUT, buying their own house. Soon, I hope. I wonder.......
Husband said "I don't want to loose my son'. He lost me, instead, because of the lies and deceit.
I started over, alone. Three years later, I'm out of debt, own everything I need, and will soon buy the car that was always promised to me.
Those two are still whining about being broke and poor. The kid is still unemployed (keeps getting fired for stupid reasons), has never finished his college program, but DID get married! (good thing his wife has a good job.) Daddy-o got fired, is living off disability, and engaged to a pot-head.
I'm happy for all of them!
I agree with some of this and other points I don't. Every case is different, each parent just has to know their child. I am 25 and recently moved back home because I went back to graduate school and could not work full time any longer. I of course hoped my parents would see that I am not just bumming but trying to do something better with my life. I have a car note, insurance and other bills I accumulated that I still pay for on my own working part time. I don't eat what my parents eat so I buy my own food. I am respectful of their place, don't have people over or be loud, the only common area we really all use is the kitchen so I keep that clean as much as possible. We did have a one time discussion about their expectations which I respect, I am not going to be comfortable there the way I am in my own place but I knew I was going to make that sacrifice a year before I did it. My mom kept telling me I would be happier living elsewhere like with a roomate and she's right but my focus right now is going to school, not partying or having friends over. I still go out and stay out late but I let them know that I'm going. I don't spend the night away from the home unless I'm out of town. I have a younger brother, who parties much more than I do and I just don't think thats a concern for my parents, their concer in more so not having to be responsible for us financially and for our decisions.
BUT a couple of years ago, I lost my job and I talked to my parents about moving back home until I got back on my feet and my dad tried to do a contract with me. He doesnt know me very well adn he thought that I was going to cause trouble, being out, drinking ect. In the contract it was like 20 different items, and it was all just negativity, already going through a hard time that just made things ten times worse. I think parents should understand that we are going through a rough time, especially if I have been taking care of myself up until now and have not been depending on them up to that point. What parents say to their children, even adult childred can really affect them. To set a contract is a slap in the face. But every thing is situational, if you know your child is unruly and you forsee problems then fine, do what you need to do, but for me I felt it was uneccessary. I didn't want them in my financial business, or giving me suggestions about budgeting ect, I just lost my job, plain and simple. I don't want them revising the contract monthly, and feeling like a stranger in my own parents home. Just tell me your expectations and let me work towards getting back on my feet, if we have that type of relationship, I will come to you on my own and get advice. Good article though.

London - Christine Bleakley, who recently confessed that she's never walked confidently into a room, looked positive when she attended a charity ball on Saturday night with her fiance Frank Lampard.
The 33-year-old TV presenter and Lampard were attending the Didier Drogba Foundation charity ball, which was held at London's Dorchester Hotel.
The pair, who plan to marry this year, were matching in their black outfits as they posed for photographs together, the Daily Mail reported.
The 'Dancing On Ice' presenter Bleakley looked stunning in a knee-length black fitted dress that featured cut-out detail on the shoulders.
She teamed it with a pair of bronze-coloured peep-toe heels and red lashings of red lipstick.
On her arm she carried a black quilted Chanel handbag, and on her other arm was of course her footballer beau.
The Chelsea star smartened up in a black suit complete with a skinny tie and a white shirt.

No-Bake Recipe: Coconut Snowballs (Gluten-Free, Nut-Free & Vegan!)
Recipes from The Kitchn
When it comes to cookies, deliciousness usually arrives in the form of ingredients like flour, butter, sugar, nuts, and chocolate. So what happens when you can't eat any of these foods? In my case, you start playing with coconut.
Besides nut and chocolate allergies, I am currently on a restricted diet without gluten, soy, dairy, or refined sugar. I had resigned myself to a cookie-less holiday until my mother, ever hopeful, insisted that we find something sweet and celebratory to fill my corner of the cookie platter. Fortunately, coconut (not really a nut!) is one beloved food I can still eat.
For days, my kitchen was covered in all things coconut: shredded coconut, coconut butter, coconut milk, coconut oil, coconut flour. I experimented with different combinations, measurements, cooking methods, and spices, and the result is the confection you see here. Sweet, yet not overwhelmingly so, these coconut snowballs have just the right balance of tender butteriness and textured coconut. They're quick to assemble, require no baking, and are rich enough that one is plenty (maybe two, if you have an accompanying mug of coffee, tea, or cider).
If you're a raw food person (or cooking for one), you can also use this recipe; substitute raw agave or yacon syrup for the maple syrup and make sure to use certified raw ingredients or process your own coconut milk, for example.
Coconut Snowballs
1 3/4 cups unsweetened shredded coconut, divided
2 teaspoons melted coconut oil
3 tablespoons maple syrup
2 tablespoons unsweetened coconut milk
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/8 teaspoon sea salt
Place 1 cup of shredded coconut in a food processor along with the coconut oil. Process on high speed, scraping down the sides periodically, until it reaches a paste-like consistency. (It does not have to be completely smooth like butter; some coconut texture is good.)
Add the maple syrup, coconut milk, vanilla, cinnamon, and salt and process until well combined. Add 1/2 cup plus 2 tablespoons of shredded coconut and pulse until just combined.
Shape the mixture into 12 (1-inch) balls and coat with the remaining shredded coconut. Refrigerate for at least an hour and up to 5 days. Bring to room temperature before eating.

And they're Paleo-friendly too! ;)
Would I able to ship these? I live in Ohio and would like to send them to North Carolina to a friend at Fort Bragg. (And on that note, would I use dry ice, or are there any suggestions on how to ship?) Thanks in advance!
Meenakshi, since coconut (and its oil) have such a long shelf life without going rancid - several months - I would guess you don't need to refrigerate.
I'm SO EXCITED that you posted a Paleo-friendly sweets recipe!!! Going to make these tonight.
Do you have nutrition info on them? I'm thinking these might be good for hiking snacks. Coconut is easy on the stomach. :D
You had me at "no-bake" ! What a terrific, easy way to make cookies. Plus I love coconut. So this is getting bookmarked ! Thanks for sharing these Coconut Snowballs!
Nice - no weird, hard to find ingredients, either, which is a plus for a vegan recipe! (I'm assuming coconut oil is common, I've never purchased it.)

I am not a fan of the taste of maple, (as a rule) so I was wondering if I omitted it would that be alright? Does it not make it taste maple? If it doesn't, I am not opposed to leaving it as -is.
These sound so yummy! Can you believe that I have a friend allergic to coconut!? I feel so bad for him!
My mother is allergic to most common oils, so coconut oil is a staple in our house. You can find it at your local grocery in the baking aisle.
@Vikihom: how about replacing the maple sirup with Agave how the author suggested? I think without the maple sirup it might taste strange since the maple sirup is the sweetener.
Buttons_whims (and anyone else looking for coconut oil) I hadn't seen it in my small town grocery stores before but noticed a huge tub of Organic cold-pressed extra virgin Coconut Oil at Costco last month so it can't be too exotic :) I remember a few years ago hearing people were ordering it online from Amazon's grocery section when it was harder to find.
Sd0126, thank you so much for figuring out the nutrition info and saving me the hassle! :)
I don't have a food processor, can I still make these...?
Oh...and I'm thinking of dipping these in melted hot chocolate?! Yum!
sorry I meant melted DARK chocolate
wife loves coconut anything... thanks for recipe
something seems to be missing? not getting enough bulk to make 12 1 inch balls
Looks good!
@Meenakshi I recommend refrigerating these because the coconut milk and shredded coconut can go rancid. I probably would not ship them myself, unless the package was kept cool and it was a very quick delivery.
@Vikihom The maple flavor is not super strong, but if you're averse to maple syrup, you might want to try another liquid sweetener like agave, which will help hold these together.
@miraajj617 Using a food processor helps to give these a softer texture, but you could mix them up by hand or substitute about 6 tablespoons of store-bought coconut butter in the first step. Sadly, I'm allergic to chocolate, but I think it would be a marvelous addition!
@exeguy Hmm, I tested this version of the recipe 3 times and managed to get a dozen balls each time. I wonder if the brand/style of shredded coconut makes a difference in volume. I used Bob's Red Mill.
Another alternative to agave and maple.... Make it an all coconut affair.
Is there a substitute for the coconut oil? The only coconut oil I have been able to find is also processed with peanut oil ( my daughter is highly allergic).
@mapg You can use another, neutral-tasting oil or even try the recipe without oil; it just helps when processing the shredded coconut into a paste.
mapg: When referring to coconut oil, the ONLY kind that is healthy is Cold-pressed, Virgin, Organic Coconut Oil. If it is processed, it is NOT healthy, nor is ANY oil that is processed. Costco does indeed carry the correct type of coconut oil, beigeonbeige, and at $21.99 for a 72-oz. container, it's an incredibly low price. I am stocking up on it in my food storage, along with my dry pack and 1-year supply of food. I pick up a container every pay day. If you KNEW what a miracle food coconut oil is, you would be shocked, after all the years of UNEDUCATED propaganda from the fda!!!
Yum, yum! I'm gluten and dairy free due to health reasons, but these will work for me! I will let you know how it turns out when I get to them. I used to hate coconut, but as I found out how good they can be, I'm in love..been using organic coconut oil for at least 12 years now.
Emily, thanks for the substitution suggestion. And the oil I found is raw and organic, so it probably is healthy. The factory just does stuff with peanuts and peanut oil in the same factory on shared lines. Sadly, a lot of organic stuff has cross contamination with peanuts.
Coconut oil is SO good for you, internally and externally. It is awesome used as a facial and body moisturizer, it soaks in and isn't greasy at all. I eat a tablespoon a day to get some good fat for my brain and it's delicious to cook with. Definitely making these cookies!
Coconut oil is easy to find! It is available at pretty much all health food stores; Supermarkets with an organic and natural products section should have as well.
I love no bake recipes! So simple, easy and quick. And the fact that it is gluten-free & vegan is a definite plus!
Just curious if the coconut milk is the kind in the can, or the thinner kind in the tetra-pak or refrigerated section?
I have to make these!
Yum! Thank you so much! Vegan, GF, and coconut? The trifecta.
@centerstagewellness I suggest using the thicker consistency coconut milk that comes in a can or aseptic carton. Check the ingredients -- often times the carton versions (refrigerated and not) are watered down and contain a bunch of additives or sweeteners.
These look delicious. I only wish they'd hold up without refrigeration, so I could ship them as Christmas gifts!
For those who don't like the taste of maple, you might try Blue Agave nectar. Keep in mind that for a cup of refined white sugar, you only need about 3/4 cup of the nectar. Vegan, and pure. I use it in just about everything that I need sweetners in, including all of my baking. It is also wonderful for diabetics, as it is slower to be utilized in the body, therefore blood sugars remain more stable.
Oh goodness, these were a disaster for me tonight! I don't know what I did wrong! Anyone else tried the recipe so far?
These worked great for me -- super yummy and easy. I followed the recipe as written, just reduced the sweetener slightly, using about 1 tbs agave and 1 tbs maple syrup. Hardest part for me was that the batter is super sticky. I will use a wet spoon next time to help form the balls. Also didn't quite get 12 balls, more like 10. Once they firm up, they are pretty stable outside of the fridge -- I took a couple to work and they were nice and hard after five hours.
I have type 1 diabetes, so I made these with Walden Farms' sugar-free maple syrup and then dipped them in dark chocolate made with polydextrose & Splenda (Nevada Manna). They are DELICIOUS! I got 11 balls.
Can you use coconut flour instead of putting coconut flakes in a food processor?
These are fantastic - I made them this weekend, and they're the perfect little 2-bite dessert to have with coffee or tea. Awesome! My food processor is almost too big for this, and I didn't really get a paste after step 1, just a finer grind. But I kept going and found out that if you heat the mixture a bit (to melt coconut oil), it definitely helps. Will make these again!
@krymsen I tried variations with coconut flour and found that they were too dry. I recommend the shredded coconut/coconut butter for moisture.
Ok, so what did I do wrong?! First, full disclosure: I *did* try to triple the recipe the first time without ever having made them before! ':-} I was never able to achieve a paste-like consistency in stage 1. I added extra coconut oil, but still no-go. I decided to forge on and add the rest of the ingredients in the hopes that the other liquids would come to the rescue; but when I tried to roll the resulting mixture into balls, it just crumbled. Now I have approx. 4 cups of maple syrup/vanilla/sea salt flavored coconut flakes in my fridge that I need to figure out how to repurpose! (I'm thinking a HUGE batch of chocolate coconut bark?)
We made these a few nights ago and they were fabulous! We doubled the recipe and only managed to get 18 of these in the size described though, so watch out for that - these go quick!
HI Emily, I made these coconut balls. They are absolutely a delight. I was able to get 12 balls like you mentioned. I had to give the store bought shredded coconut a whirl to reduce the flake size so they stay coated when you roll them in the coconut at the end. I feel very virtuous for knowing how to make gluten-free, nut-free, vegan, no-bake baked good. Looking forward to more!
I was able to make delicious 10 balls! the hardest part for me was getting the leftover coconut shreds on the balls, but usually giving a slight squeeze in your hands attached them. i will definitely make more for the future, in bigger batches!
I just made these and they're delicious! I have a mini-chopper and couldn't quite get the paste consistency described in the recipe but they turned out super tasty and are so easy to make. I substituted agave for maple syrup and tried a little almond butter in half the batch - yum! Traditional snowballs are a family favorite, I will try some chopped pecans next time. Thanks for a great recipe!
You are most likely going to laugh but I dont own a food processor!! Could I use my hand mixer instead??
devo! went and bought what i thought was coconut milk.. wondered why it wasnt working... it was "flavoured" evaporated milk. i know i shouldnt, but i kept them.. even though they are clumps of yumminess with milk in them!
Bob's Red Mill Fine Macaroon COCONUT (unsweetened) 12 oz. package makes a perfect double batch. The first time I made these awesome snowballs I didn't read the directions about using only 1 cup of the coconut with 2 teaspoons of coconut oil & mix in the cuisinart until a little creamy (but could have a little coconut texture) & then follow the rest of the recipe. My son-in-law said my recipe (thanks to Kitchn for creating it) tasted better than the ones he bought at a specialty store. Thanks to all the people that have such great posts on this recipe. BTW, this is my first time to post on anything on the Internet. This is a real treat to the smart people out there eating less (or no) sugar.
Oh dear god, these are amazing. I know that it's pointless to comment months later, but seriously, this is so delicious. They are a tad sweet, but the texture is ridiculously good!
Tried these this weekend... only added 2 tbsp maple syrup but I don't think that's why mine didn't stick together enough to roll into balls! I patted the mixture into one big bar, chilled it for an hour then cut into tiny squares and put in the freezer. Easy snack! Next time I might try to blend a couple dates in to replace the maple syrup, might even make it easier to roll into balls.
Made these last night for a cookie exchange and they are delicious! I had to use a little more coconut oil than what was listed to get a better consistency but if you like coconut, these are wonderful.
Thanks for posting the recipe!
I'm breastfeeding a baby with AD, so I'm avoiding dairy, egg, tree nuts and soy...and wow those ingredients are in almost everything. These coconut snowballs have totally hit the spot! I've made them several times now. My tweak was to add a half tablespoon of tahini (sesame seed butter) and a dash of nutmeg. I also mash up some medjool dates, roll them into little balls the size of large snowpeas, and then roll a maybe 3/4 inch ball of the batter around the date. It makes approx 3 dozen coconut balls with a middle eastern twist.
I don't think the nutritional information is correct. I had gastric bypass 10 years ago so I know that more than 15g of sugar at one time is very, very bad. Maple syrup has a whopping 45g of sugar per 1/4c which is 4T. So, this would make the sugar total about 32g for 3T. If this makes 12 then that means (quick, non-professional math here) a little less than 3 grams per truffle, not the .08 they list. Additionally, that means it is impossible for these to be 2g carbs. I just wanted to poke a hole into the Sparks nutrition counter because, if they are wrong about this then people like me can't be too sure they're always right. Not being a pain in the neck but 15g or less = fun! More than 15g = bad!
I'd like to add my thanks for this recipe because I am having one heck of a time finding dessert/treats that are Paleo that aren't loaded with sugar, albeit the natural kind. Seriously, dates have more sugar in 1/4c than 4 Reese's PB cups. And who the hell wants a few dates over Reese's?! I'll let you know how they came out. I might keep some aside and swap honey for the maple just to see what happens.
I know that coconuts aren't technically tree nuts, but for a sizable portion of nut allergic folks like me, we have a cross-reaction. (Same goes for peanuts.)
It seems that so many of the nut-free recipes have coconut or coconut oil - I guess because of the gluten-free trend? I'd love to see more "nut-free" branded recipes that are tree/peanut/coconut-free.

And in the news? The end of the news (newspapers, at least).
Syria Deeply, Beat Page of the Future
It's an incredible idea: one site, one beat. No front page. No sports, no business or finance, anywhere. It's called Syria Deeply.
It's about 25% original content, written by veteran Middle East correspondent Lara Setrakian and friends. The rest is aggregated and includes interactives, maps, and contextual material aimed to catch people up on the story without pointing them off site.
From FastCompany:
From a taxonomy perspective, Syria Deeply is the opposite of most news sites. In a traditional news taxonomy, information is divided by broad topics, like World News. Each topic is divided into subsections, like the Middle East. Each subsection is then often divided into even smaller subsections, like Syria. Each section gets smaller and smaller. Topic pages live in obscure ghettos on many news websites: auto-aggregated and ugly dumping grounds for content that happens to be tagged with particular keywords.
On Syria Deeply (designed by Brock Petrie and developed by Soumyadeep Paul and Arindam Biswas, who runs Collective Zen) the topic page is the homepage. Setrakian's hope is that this site-wide focus on a single beat will allow for deeper, more thoughtful reporting.
FJP: Looks extremely promising.
Context, context, context. Bravo.
Potentially Earth-Like Planet Has Right Temperature for Life
For the first time, astronomers have found a planet smack in the middle of the habitable zone of its sunlike star, where temperatures are good for life. "If this planet has a surface, it would have a very nice temperature of some 70° Fahrenheit [21°C]," says William Borucki of NASA's Ames Research Center here, who is the principal investigator of NASA's Kepler space telescope. "[It's] another milestone on the journey of discovering Earth's twin," adds Ames director Simon "Pete" Worden.

They were awarded the prize for "for their non-violent struggle for the safety of women and for women's rights to full participation in peace-building work." Johnson-Sirleaf is Liberia's first elected female president and has acted as a reformer in her time in office. Gbowee organized a group of Christian and Muslim women to stand up to Liberian warlords. Karman is a Yemeni journalist who is both a women's rights activist and a leading protest organiser in Yemen's Arab Spring uprisings.

My Recipe For Weight Loss
Author: Karen Barba

Keywords: ningxia red, balance complete, grapefruit, lemon
I had put on about 30 pounds due to emotional eating and not caring about anything including myself. I got my head strong using some of the Young living oils. I cared about myself again and I decided to try and drop some weight. I started drinking the Balance Complete with the digest and cleanse pills and Ninxia Red, as meal substitutes. I did this for about a month to jump start my system.
I also started putting a drop of grapefruit and a drop of lemon in a bottle of water and drinking about 5 - 6 of those a day. I stopped drinking diet pop. The weight started coming off. I never felt deprived - I would still eat whatever I wanted - I found that I did not want the bad stuff. I started in April of 2007 and by September I had lost 30 pounds. I am now trying to loose another 10 that I have carried forever - these are coming off a little harder - but I am not thinking about the scale - as a matter of fact I weigh myself very rarely. I know it will happen - and if it doesn't it's okay cause I feel wonderful and that is all that matters. I am a whole new person with the use of Young Living oils.

The Odd, The Rare & The Canadian
Christie Antique Show 2011
Forget the Toronto International Film Festival (TIFF), with the gorgeous weather this past weekend was perfect for being outdoors shopping for antiques. Did you make it to the Christie Antique Show on Saturday? We did and found lots of odd, old items and Canadiana.
Canadian items included a Montreal Canadiens hockey lamp, a dartboard from the National Dartboard Federation of Canada, curling and hockey magazines from the 1950s and old signs and products from all over Ontario. We loved the wooden loons and duck decoys, gramophones, spacey looking television sets and an old printer's table. What were your finds at the Christie Antique Show? Are you planning to visit any other antique shows in Ontario this fall?

No handmade crokinole boards, eh?
finnlay hehe.
Thanks for this update, and thanks for the Toronto/Ontario info. I didn't even know about this antique show but have made note not to miss the next one!
I missed it this time, but was at the last one in May and came home with some incredible finds! http://www.notmytypewriter.com/2011/05/antiquing-at-christie-conservation-area.html
The flowered gramophone and the creepy cradle are my favourites. x
I was there and got some great buys. I saw that cradle/bassinet in the photo above - it was amazing. The weather was perfect and it wasn't even overly crowded. Had a great time!
If anyone ever figures out where that curling guide came from or where it's being sold, please post it, would love to own that thing.
It was my first time attending annd I loved it. I came home with a lovely pair of framed hummingbird prints.
Ha..2nd picture on the bottom row. That yellow basket in the bottom corner. I bought it. And that booth with the retro tv's? I got a giant pull-down map for my son's room.
I just loved the wooden products from Canadian. Most especially their wood furniture's. We've bought last year a table and 3 chairs then we've decided to trade it with long wooden chair for our garden via buysellusedstuff.com. My Dad is planning to collect a sport items like dart board and baseball.
This was my first time. The weather could not have been more perfect, warm and sunny but breezy so not hot.
I saw lots of nice items (mostly rather overpriced, IMHO) but I missed the unique cradle/bassinet. I bought some wooden typography letters for $36 but I got them for $30.
There were lots of great things this year! I'm obsessed with all the old signs. I also bought old letterpress blocks.
My pictures from this year and other seasons are here http://kjandco83.blogspot.com/search/label/Christie%20Antique%20Show
KJ and CO,
Thanks for posting the pics on your blog. I recognized most items. The funny thing is - I think it's pic #10 (from top) - the bunch of ladies at the picnic table - I was hanging behind the one on the very left (while she shopped for some candlestick) because I was fascinated by her top and I wanted to ask her where she got it. :-))
Didn't make it to Christie but I'll be at the Aberfoyle Antique Fair on Sept 24th!

This turned out AWESOME!! I didn't add the eggs (just because of a time thing) and only used half the jalapeno. Full of flavor!! I served it with rice with tadig. I'm sure couscous or quinoa would be great with it too. Love it!!

Agreed, this turned out great. I used ground lamb, and the spices complemented it perfectly. There is nothing I would change about this recipe. Served with brown rice, pitas, sliced cucumber, and Greek yogurt. A fantastic recipe for those who aren't quite lamb converts. Delicious! :-)

"There are two steps to cooking beans: soaking and cooking. Soaking allows dried beans to absorb water; which makes them start to dissolve the gaseous starches that can cause discomfort. Cooking beans makes them tender and digestible. And rinsing them after soaking and draining any water after cooking will further help to reduce the gas-producing starches."

"This recipe gives all the different ways that can be used for preparing dry beans. I used it to make a Black Bean recipe and it does really help. Thank you Tish."
"Thanks for the bean basics - I have jars of beans that I never cook just because I'm not sure what to do. I had bought a variety of dried beans for jar soup gifts but now I can cook some for myself."
"This recipe was exactly what I've been searching for. Back to the basics! It is a good way to start working with beans, while keeping costs down. Thank you!"
"Great explanations for a beginner. I like beans, but haven't really made them before. This is exactly what I'm looking for. Why buy canned beans when dried beans cost you pennies - plus you can easily mix and match!"
"Dried beans 101--thanks for taking the time to post this--it is awesome. Beans turned out great!"
"Great technique to cook dried beans. I had never cooked dried beans before so tried this method. This worked for me using the quick soak method. I froze the beans for future recipes."
"THANK YOU, Tish! These are great instructions! I just got done with some garbanzos and have some black beans soaking (traditional method) to cook up this evening. I'm freezing my beans in "1 can" servings so I can quickly use them in recipes....SO much cheaper than buying them canned! Thanks again for the great instructions!"
"This is clear, precise and easy to follow directions for a someone new to cooking beans. THANK YOU."

"Thank you! Worked great! Finally, I have a reasonable method to avoid all that salt in canned beans!"
"I agree with mayness in that this is an excellent resource. I thought I lost the recipe as my 'favorites' got deleted when I updated my computer. I found it pretty easily though. I love this site!
It's been over two years since I posted this review and I still use this recipe more that any other. Thank you Tish!"
"I used the quick soak method with kidney beans and froze the leftovers. They were really "grainy" textured when I used them a few days later, I won't be freezing beans again! But otherwise this was very helpful, I never had much luck with dry beans. Thanks for sharing."
"Thanks so much for this! I infamously suck at soaking beans ahead of time...But I really hate paying for canned. Will use the quickie method over and over!"
"I had always used canned beans and this is so much better. I did the traditional soak the first time and quick soak for the second time and both times, they came out perfectly. Thank you!"
"Thank you for posting this really informative recipe....methods, really! I used to always just buy canned beans, but comparing prices....ouch! (Especially now!) Thanks for taking the time to post this--it's very educational!"
"just what I needed to know about cooking dried beans. Thanks!"
"I have used this method for 2 or 3 types of beans and it is always a success. Thanks Tish."
"Thank you! Very informative and usefull information on cooking beans."

The Ask Chris Valentine Special: Batman vs. the Pickup Artist
By Chris Sims
Q: How would Batman have foiled The Art Gallery Scheme? — @NielJacoby
A: Ah, Valentine's Day, a time when one's thoughts turn inevitably to the complex art of love and dating. Well, that's how it is for most people, anyway; I tend to just think about Batman, no matter what day it is. With this question, though, I can do both at the same time, because the infamous Art Gallery Scheme is not some daring heist in Gotham City.
It's actually an elaborate scam set up to woo a lady, as envisioned by that douchebag Mystery.
For those of you who may not be familiar with Mystery, he refers to himself as a "Pickup Artist," which basically means that he dresses like Dragon*Con threw up on him and tries to lure women into bed through a combination of stage magic and psychological manipulation. Throw all those factors in together — the flamboyant costuming, the ruthless methods, the card tricks, the fact that his name is "Mystery" — and he's basically the closest thing the real world has to one of the Arch-Criminals from Batman '66.
This part's pretty genius:
"Usually, that bluffing just takes the form of subtle insults that chip away at a lady's self-esteem until she's vulnerable enough to be led like a scolded puppy into night of regrettable passion."
Seriously. Go read this. Sims totally killed it.

Thank you all so much!
Thank you all so much for your post today!
I can feel the energy surrounding us in our place of work.
And Carroll is vibrant and positive and ever moving forward.
Together, we will come through this.
Thank you all for your contributions.
Love you dearly and please keep it up,
It is so interesting...
It is so interesting to watch life unfold in the flow of such beautiful energies that surround us all and indwell us all and that we all are the immediate experience. Is that not why we are all here? To experience life in it's fullest?
Ah what a joy it is to see life in it's full expression and to embrace it head on with the courage of our convictions. And with each day, such a simple statement can be made as in, I am here and I made it through yet another day. And I am looking forward to yet another day. I am joyous in my experience.
When we choose to experience life in joy, no matter what the experience, we find that we conquer the experience for our highest good.
With a loving heart, I share mine with yours.
For Deb
Still praying for your friend. I did not mean that you should remove anything...sorry for the misunderstanding. It was meant for her...to help her.
I just get what comes through. Hope she is feeling better.
Keeping Carroll in my prayers and energy work.
Receiving all of your wonderful energies for Carroll's highest good. She is such an amazing individual. She is a testimony to me in how she is dealing with all of this. We both agreed that we would come through this with flying colors. Don't know exactly what that comment means but it certainly suggests, celebration. So, there is much laughter and care in our dealing with all the hoopla of the chemo preparation. She renewed her passport today for a trip to St. Lucia in November. So, there you go. Belief Becomes - Life is Good.
Love you all,
Please continue!
Please continue sending your loving healing energies to surround Carroll! She goes tomorrow to have a portacath inserted as she has agreed to begin chemo therapy on Monday.
She is one very positive determined woman. Thanking you all for helping to assist her in her highest good.
Love you all,
Good News...
Carroll's cancer is contained in the left lung. She begins chemo tomorrow and we are blessing the chemo to do it's highest good in this situation. She is feeling well and strong and determined that this is an opportunity to grow her faith in her knowing that all is well.
Thanking you all for your continued blessings.
Before Carroll started her chemo, I asked her to bless the chemo for the benefit of her body and to receive it as a blessing. She said she would do that. I told her I really felt that would help with how it effected her and how well it worked for her. She agreed.
She went through her first week of chemo with absolutely no side effects. She looks and feels great!
Next week she starts the radiation treatments.
Thank you all for your continued prayers and loving energies!!!
Love, Deb
Great news! Will keep sending energy!
This is great news!
I am so happy for Carroll, and you, Deb. She will beat this thing. I will keep sending loving, healing thoughts and energy to you both. Love, C.

Danish Meteorological Institute, Research and Development Department, Lyngbyvej 100, 2100 Copenhagen Ø, Denmark
Abstract. Reverse domain-filling trajectory calculations have been performed for the years 1993, 1995, 1996, 1997, and 2000 to calculate the spreading of ozone depleted air from the polar vortex to midlatitudes in spring. We find that for these years with massive Arctic ozone depletion the zonal mean total ozone column at midlatitudes is reduced with between 7 and 12 DU in the April-May period. The polar vortex and remnants have preferred locations which leads to longitudinal differences in the midlatitude ozone trends. Together with decadal variations in circulation the dilution of ozone depleted air may explain the major fraction of longitudinal differences in midlatitude ozone trends. The dilution also has a significant impact on the zonal mean ozone trends. With a multiple linear regression model we find that the dilution may explain 39% of the trend in the period 1979–1997 and 54% of the trend in the period 1979–2002. By calculting the effect of simply removing the dilutions we get the possibly more reliable estimates that that dilution may explain 29% of the trend in the period 1979–1997 and 33% of the trend in the period 1979–2002.

3 Cloud Companies You Must Buy
Madhukar is a member of The Motley Fool Blog Network -- entries represent the personal opinion of the blogger and are not formally edited.
The cloud-computing industry is gaining momentum in terms of revenue growth. It is estimated that revenue from cloud services will reach $148.8 billion by 2014, compared to $68.3 billion in 2010. This growth will have an impact on technology and will provide access to advanced computing resources at lower prices. Microsoft (NASDAQ: MSFT), Red Hat (NYSE: RHT), and Oracle (NYSE: ORCL) offer technologically-advanced products that have proven to be beneficial to their customers in terms of cost and improvement. Let's find out what focus each company has picked to gain market share.
Revenue growth through cloud and office segments
Microsoft recently declared that its cloud computing platform, Microsoft Azure, has crossed sales of $1 billion in the past 12 months. It had an average sales growth of 10% in the past nine quarters. Its subscriptions have increased by 48% in the past six months with more than 200,000 Windows Azure customers. It now has 20% market share in the cloud computing business against 71% market share of Amazon Web Services.
It is expected to reach 35% by the end of this year because of the rise in its customer base. Looking at this progress in the cloud-computing segment, ValueAct Capital has increased its stake to $2 billion in the company. Microsoft Azure contributes 17% to Microsoft's total revenue. With such pace, its server business will boost revenue by 20% to approximately $22 billion by the end of fiscal year 2014, up from $18.6 billion in 2012. This will result to 24% contribution to the overall revenue of the company.
In the first quarter of fiscal year 2013, Microsoft reported $6.3 billion revenue, growing by 10% year over year. The reason for the boost in sales was the launch of Office 365 in February 2013, a paid service which offers MS-Office capabilities on cloud platform. The Office segment has a 93% market share in the Office-suite market, and has the highest margin – at 65% – compared to all other segments. It can be accessed by a single user from five different devices.
Microsoft is also cross-selling other products like Skydrive, Skype services, Lync, and Exchange along with Office 365. Upon purchasing it, customers additionally get 60 minutes of international Skype calls every month and services like 20GB of SkyDrive storage, a cloud storage service. It is reporting a revenue run rate or annual revenue of $1 billion. This is expected to further grow to $2.5 billion of revenue by fiscal year 2016.
New hardware, lack of focus
Last month, Oracle launched two new processor series, T-series and M-series, to revitalize its falling hardware segment. Its T5 microprocessor from the T-series is said to boost 16 cores, which will put forth a better clock speed of 3.60 GHz, compared to its predecessor T4, which had eight cores and a clock speed of 3.00 GHz. Clock speed is the rate or speed at which the computer processes information. T5 is the fastest microprocessor in the database industry, supported with 17 world-record benchmarks. Oracle's M5 server from the M-Series has 32 processors that will help its Oracle Database run 10 times faster compared to its M9000 server. Due to a delay in the launch of these servers, the customers also delayed their purchases, which led to declining sales in the third quarter of fiscal year 2013.
Despite the sale of 800 engineered systems, the hardware-system products revenue decreased by nearly 22% from $869 million in the previous quarter to $671 million, presently. Since the acquisition of Sun Microsystems in 2010, Oracle has sold more than 5,000 engineered systems. With the inclusion of these latest microprocessors, it estimates revenue growth in this segment by 16% to $781.6 million in the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2013.
However, one factor which will act as a headwind to the company is higher pricing of Oracle products. Oracle spends approximately $5 billion annually on research and development in the license and software as a service, or SaaS, segment, which is more than the combined revenue of companies like Databax, Salesforce, 10Gen, and Workday. This makes other products in the market cheaper and they have lesser cost of ownership compared to Oracle. In other words, $1 spent on Workday will conceivably eliminate the $5 spent on Oracle.
The purchasing price of a SaaS application includes database, middleware, hardware, and database administration technology. Whereas in the database management space, the pricing structure of the new data management technologies is cheaper than the Oracle environment because they are open-source. This is the most profound risk to Oracle and has led to difficulty in renewing maintenance revenue.
Filled backlog and repurchase plan in the cards
Unbilled backlogs are contracts of customers that are to be billed in the future, and they do not appear in the financial statements. Red Hat presently has an unbilled backlog record of over $280 million, which is 40% higher than $200 million of the previous year. It is expected that $180 million from this backlog will be billed by fiscal year 2014. The reason for this increment in the backlog is that the company is being awarded with an increasing number of multi-year deals, which will be billed based on the course of the contracts. Its top 30 deals were worth more than $1 million, including six deals above $5 million and three deals more than $10 million. Red Hat now provides services and solutions to nearly 90% of the Fortune 500 companies.
Red Hat announced share repurchase on April 15, 2013 worth $300 million. Previously, the company had repurchased its final $179 million of $300 million at $49.15 per share in February 2013. It is using only 23% from its cash and investments, worth $1.3 billion, for allocation. These $300 million sum up to 3% of the 193 million outstanding shares as of February 2013. The reason for this frequent share buyback strategy is that the company has excess cash piles and is capable of increasing funds if required in future.
With Microsoft Office 365 at an annualized revenue of $1 billion and Microsoft Azure already crossing the $1 billion revenue mark, the company displays its progress in the cloud and office-suite market.
Red Hat's plan of share repurchase makes it an investor-friendly stock; it also has a secured year ahead due to its unbilled backlog.
Oracle is focusing on improving its hardware segment and license and software segment in order to boost revenue, which did not show great results in the previous third quarter of fiscal year 2013.
I recommend buy for all these stocks, for long-term gains.
It's been a frustrating path for Microsoft investors, who've watched the company fail to capitalize on the incredible growth in mobile over the past decade. However, with the release of its own tablet, along with the widely anticipated Windows 8 operating system, the company is looking to make a splash in this booming market.
