June 21 - 29 is Animal Rights Awareness Week.
Each day I am going to post information on different animal welfare issues worldwide in the hopes that we can all help educate each other, and do our best to stop these acts from happening.
1. Ape deforestation and prostitution. Yes, that's right - APE PROSTITUTION.
Meet Pony. She is an orangutan from a small village in Borneo, where they cut down the rain forest to render the palm oil that gets sold abroad and made into lip salve, ice cream, chocolates, and cheese crackers.
Michelle Desilets [Director of the Borneo Orangutan Survival Foundation]: "Pony is an orangutan from a prostitute village in Borneo. We found her chained to a wall, lying on a mattress. She had been shaved all over her body.
If a man walked near her, she would turn herself around, present herself, and start gyrating and going through the motions. She was being used as a sex slave. She was probably about six or seven years old when we rescued her, but she had been held captive by a madame for a long time. The madame refused to give up the animal because everyone loved Pony and she was a big part of their income.
The clients would come in especially for it. You could choose a human if you preferred, but it was a novelty for many of the men to have sex with an orangutan. They shaved her every other day, which meant that her skin had all these pimples and was very irritated. The mosquitoes would get to her very badly and the bites would become septic and be very infected, as she would scratch them constantly. They would put rings and necklaces on her. She was absolutely hideous to look at.
It took us over a year to rescue her, because every time we went in with forest police and local officers we would be overpowered by the villagers, who simply would not give her up. They would threaten us with guns and knives with poison on them. In the end it took 35 policemen armed with AK-47s and other weaponry going in there and demanding that they hand over Pony. It was filmed by a local television crew and in the background of the film when we are unchaining Pony you can hear the madame crying hysterically, screaming, "They are taking my baby, you can't do this!" There is no law enforcement in Indonesia so these people didn't face any sentence or anything for what they had done."
http://www.orangutans.com.au/ - An Australian company who dedicate their time to adopting, saving, rehabilitating and nurturing orphans and abused apes. On their site YOU can make a donation. you can also adopt an ape. Anything we, the public, can do to make a difference - no matter how small… is worth it.
Palm oil, coconut oil and palm kernel oil are edible plant oils derived from the fruits of palm trees.
The use of palm oil in food products is often the focus of environmental activist groups, due to it being documented as a cause of substantial and often irreversible damage to the natural environment.
Its impacts include: deforestation, habitat loss of critically endangered species such as the Orangutan and Sumatran Tiger, and a significant increase in greenhouse gas emissions.
Statistically, Palm Oil costs the lives of 50 Orangutans every week.
Some companies that use Palm Oil: Cadbury, Bird's Eye, Nestle, Kelloggs, McVities, Magnum, Mars, Wrigleys "Extra", Flora, Haribo.
For more information on Palm Oil and what YOU can do, please go to: http://www.palmoilaction.org.au
Help educate other tumblr users about these issues and what they can do to make a change!

Reader Comments (Page 1 of 1)
Sgt. Baker, I like your thinking. There's so many situations where I can see that being useful.
If Blizz wanted, I'm pretty sure they could make their own external VC thing, something that was linked to Battle.net. If many of the chat functions we enjoy in other IM and VC programs was made part of the whole B-net thing, I can see that being a big selling point for the company, and help them keep a competitive edge in the future too. However, creating such a system would require time and money, and I'm not sure a game company wants to actually divide its resources for that kind of endeavor.
Besides, TS and Vent are pretty darn good as they are. Not sure if there is a need for any drastic improvements for that.

PISCATAWAY, NJ – Ollie Bailey, a 6-7, 225-pound forward from Chicago, IL and Dan Waterstradt, a 6-11, 220-pound center/forward from Redford, MI and have signed national letters of intent to play basketball at Rutgers University for head coach Gary Waters, it was announced today.
Bailey, a rugged force on both ends of the floor, averaged 18.1 points and 12.3 rebounds per game at Farragut High School in Chicago, one of the top programs in the nation that has produced numerous outstanding players including NBA superstar Kevin Garnett. Regarded by several recruiting services as the top forward prospect in Chicago, Bailey won the "Glass Cleaner Award" at the Illinois High School Elite Top 50 Junior Showcase last year. Farragut is the number-one rated team in the Chicago Public League Preseason "Fabulous Five" team rankings and was a standout at the Nike All-American Camp in Indianapolis last summer. Bailey was the only junior named to the Chicago All-Academic team last year.
"Ollie Bailey plays the game with a high degree of toughness and intensity and those traits will serve him well in the BIG EAST," said Waters. "While he has earned a reputation as a relentless inside force, he is versatile and has the potential to help us in many other areas. In addition to being a relentless rebounder and shot-blocker, he can handle the ball well, is a good passer and has a real nice feel for the game."
Waterstradt is a skilled, versatile, fundamentally sound player who averaged 15.1 points and 8.3 rebounds per game for a team that is ranked in the preseason Top 10 in the state of Michigan, regardless of class. In conference play, he averaged more than 12 rebounds per game. Regarded by several recruiting services as one of the top centers in the state of Michigan, Waterstradt converted 61% of his field goal attempts and shot 75% from the free throw line a year ago.
"Dan Waterstradt's best basketball is ahead of him," said Waters. "He's just scratching the surface and he's going to get better and better. You don't see many 6-11 kids running the floor like Dan does. He can rebound and get out on the break quickly. Overall he is a sound player who will fit in nicely into our transition and pressing system."

Nike Air Maxim 1 ND – White – Royal + White – Red – July '09
June 1st, 2009 by Aaron Kr. | 1 comment
We first gave you a peek at Nike's eagerly anticipated Air Maxim 1 all the way back in January. The first pics to emerge were of the classic white/red Air Max 1 colorway and a white/royal version followed shortly after. As beloved as the Air Max 1 is, this updated edition instantly felt like a no-brainer. The shoe stays pretty true to the original Air Max 1 design, but the inclusion of gridded Flywire on the upper seems to bring the style into the future without sacrificing a bit of the classic appeal. For those who have been on the edge of their seats waiting for these to drop, be advised that both colorways will be hitting shelves this July and are already available for pre-order at Wellgosh.

Competitive cycling is something at which the team is very good. Team members Steph Thompson '09 and Sarah Egler '07 earned first and second place, respectively, at the women's race at the Division II Conference. As a result, Thompson is bound for nationals.
The men on the team won the honor of Division II Fastest Team Time Trial in the Conference. Finn Kolsrud 07 took first in the Lincoln Plating Stage Race, and placed third in Division II Conference road race. Brandon Krawczyk 09 earned first in the Lincoln Plating Circuit race and first in the North Central Collegiate Cycling Conference Road Race. Peter Halquist '07 took third in Division II Conference criterium. Team member Jake Boyce 09 is also having a successful year racing in Europe.
We've done a lot better than we ever thought we would this season. As a team, we dominated our conference in Division II, Kolsrud said.
The St. Olaf team feels that their devotion to the sport gives them an edge over many of the other local teams. In reference to the Carleton team, Team Driver Brian Baur 08 said, They don't even finish their races.
When the St. Olaf team faced up against Carleton in a race, the Oles showed their true mettle. Even though the Carls had rested after not finishing their previous race, and Halquist, Krawczyk and Kolsrud were exhausted after racing all day, the Carleton team lost by about 40 seconds. Kolsrud called this feat one of the season's highlights.
The team is careful not to brag, since they are part of a network of cyclists that reaches across the country, and bragging would alienate them from that network. It's a subculture. You just go stay at their houses, Kolsrud said. For example, the St. Olaf French House played host to visiting cyclist Mike Blahut earlier this year.
There has to be mutual trust, Halquist said.
It's lucky for the team that this national cycling community exists; without it, the team would have a hard time attending meets.
The cyclists received a measly $300 from St. Olaf to cover their expenses. This amount barely covers the gas used to get to the races and it unquestionably does not cover the racing fees, Baur said.
We're out there wearing the St. Olaf colors at high visibility events, Halquist said, reflecting the teams sense that the school has more or less abandoned them, a problem owing, at least partially, to the fact that the team is in a transitional phase between being a club and being a club sport.
The team's inadequate funding situation has spawned some legendary stories. One such circulating rumor is that the team pays Baur in cigarettes.
There is truth to that story. This past year, the team had a meet in North Dakota, and with no way to get there, Kolsrud offered Baur an expenses-paid trip if he would be willing to drive the team to the meet. To sweeten the deal, he even tossed in a carton of cigarettes.
Baur agreed. Originally, the team thought they would be sleeping in a retired meth lab.
Fortunately, this was not the case, and instead the cyclists spent the night in a fairly normal home. They are willing to live hand-to-mouth because they love racing, Baur said.
This devotion to the sport and perservering ethic is enough to put them in the Ole cycling history books. But, Kolsrud had one final note to strengthen their legendary status: We carry a pirate flag wherever we go; it sort of represents our team.

"The KACE Appliance has saved us an immense amount of time. To think about one site that has several hundred computers, and then to have to manually go and see what programs need to be installed, or try to run Windows updates- to get them up to speed (without the KACE Appliance) would have taken an extra year. It would have been an outrageous amount of time without the appliance." - Rich Battin, IT Support Services, Academy School District 20
"We agree with our students about how important it is to save energy, which we can do with our Dell KACE Appliance." - Bennie Driskell, Supervisor of Technology Support, AUSD
"We were absolutely blown away by the breadth of features the K1000 Management Appliance offered." - Ryan Haylock, Director of IT Services at Charlotte School of Law
"If we need to replace a broken PC in a lab, we simply plug in the new one, name it as part of the lab group, and all the right software just appears." - Georges Khairallah, Network Specialist, Chino Valley Unified School District
"When more than 26,000 people are depending on us to make a service happen, it's great to have Dell supporting our entire infrastructure." - Shane Hamlin, IT Manager
"With KACE, we are able to manage all our desktops regardless of the different operating systems from one central point and at a cost-effective price." - Matt Garland, IT Network Manager at Isambard Community School
"Instead of spending 95 percent of our time on break/fix and 5 percent on new projects, we're spending 50 percent on break/fix and 50 percent on innovation—a 10-fold increase because of Dell co-sourcing and the Dell KACE Appliances." Joe Griffin, Chief Technology Officer, Keller ISD
"We selected Dell KACE because of its ease of use. We wanted a simple solution that didn't require two to three weeks of set up and training and really liked the fact that we could do the set up on our own." - Tom Wyman, Director of IT, MICDS
"Students are more engaged with their work as a result of the ready access to Dell desktops and laptops. The machines offer the power and performance for quick and reliable access to coursework and applications." - Lee Jepson, Network Manager, Noel-Baker School
"To think we almost hired additional IT team members to handle our growing systems management demands is laughable when in the end we just needed KACE." - Julie Budz, IT specialist at Pueblo School District 70
"Looking at the Dell KACE Systems Management and Systems Deployment Appliances, we saw that they could provide all the functionality that we required in one place, which would greatly reduce the teamís system management overhead." - Lee Ellis, Network Manager, St. Hilda's High School
"Gone are the days when we had to go out and fix a machine. Using the Dell KACE Appliance's service desk tickets are helping us identify issues and are now quickly closing service desk queries." - Anthony Kennedy, IT Operations Manager, St Laurence's College
"We have tripled our laptop fleet but we only need one extra technician to manage it efficiently. By automating so many management and deployment tasks, Dell KACE has saved us from having to employ additional human resources." Keith Birch, Assistant Principal, IT and Administration, St Rita's College
"Our objective was to create a dynamic data center to meet our future growth demand. Dell brought solutions that completely met Univates' needs" -
Paulo Roberto Mallmann, IT Manager, Univates
"Our engineers can easily push patches out and make configuration changes without leaving their desk." "They no longer have to visit each machine and do everything manually. And we can report on system configurations and patches—nearly 100 percent of our client systems are patched successfully with Dell KACE.- Michael Pratt, Director Office of Information Technology, University of West Alabama
"During the evaluation process we looked at other solutions, but ultimately decided to go with the Dell KACE Appliances because of the cost as well as the lower operating expenses needed to keep the appliances up and running." - Abdulrauf Gehani, Manager of IT Client Services, University of Toronto Scarborough

Memphis Highlights
Named for the ancient Egyptian capital on the Nile, Memphis is best known for the rise and fall of two men who led vastly different movements. Elvis Presley rocketed to fame here in the mid-1950s. And it was here on April 4, 1968, that the Reverend Dr Martin Luther King Jr. was assassinated.
Memphis culture draws heavily on claiming responsibility for giving birth to the blues in the early 20th-century. Favorite son WC Handy composed the first published blues tune just before WWI, making Memphis, and the jumpin' Beale Street, the home of the blues.

When I was a junior programmer I was encouraged to make applications "table-driven" as much as possible. What my project managers meant by this was to resist placing data values in program source code, and instead to have them in database tables. This made the applications more flexible. For instance, some source code might implement a business rule for calculating taxes on retail sales using a tax rate of three percent. If three percent was implemented directly in the source code, then if the rate changed to four percent, all the source code using three percent would have to be found. The programs concerned would have to be changed, and the new programs would have to be implemented in production. By contrast having the three percent in a database table that was accessed by the appropriate business rules meant that there was only one, known place where the data item needed to be changed. The flexibility of the table-driven approach supported ease of production maintenance, rather than anything else. However, it did mean that the defined components of a single business rule were found in more than one place.

Bill Gross: Why QE Will End Before the Fed Wants It To
Legendary bond guru Bill Gross doesn't think too highly of the Federal Reserve and Ben Bernanke's monetary policies.
"There comes a point when no matter how much blood is being pumped through the system as it is now, with zero-based policy rates and global quantitative easing programs, that the blood itself may become anemic, oxygen-starved, or even leukemic, with white blood cells destroying more productive red cell counterparts," Gross writes in his June investment outlook titled Wounded Heart.
Gross believes that QE, which he describes akin to a bad dose of chemotherapy, will end later this year but not because of a suddenly strengthening economy.

Do We Really Need the Federal Reserve System?
Abolishing the Federal Reserve System might seem like a drastic idea, but not when you get the full story...
You see, Congress created the U.S. Federal Reserve System to restore public confidence, provide the banking system a source of liquidity that would prevent its collapse and protect the public against inflation.
A century later, the banking system is so big its risks dwarf the Fed's liquidity capacity, and what cost a buck back then now will set you back $21.
That's why we asked Money Morning Chief Investment Strategist Keith Fitz-Gerald to explain how the Federal Reserve System actually helps a country's economy.
Most importantly, we wanted to know if the United States - or any country - even needs the Fed anymore.
Just listen to Fitz-Gerald's answer in the following interview.Read More...

7 Reasons Not to Trust the Bernanke Testimony to Congress
As usual, the markets were hanging on every word of the Bernanke testimony to Congress today (Wednesday).
By now, everyone should know better.
In the years that U.S. Federal Reserve Chairman Ben Bernanke has been a member of the Fed - both as a member of the Board of Governors from 2002 to 2005, and in his two terms as chairman beginning in 2006 - he has been stupendously wrong time and time again.
Bernanke gave the markets what they wanted by hinting that his monetary easing policies won't change any time soon, pushing both the Dow Jones Industrial Average and the Standard & Poor's 500 Index up more than 0.5% in midday trading.

The New Crisis Warning Just Issued to the Federal Reserve
Before the housing market crash, economists warned that record low-interest and mortgage rates were fueling a housing bubble.
Unfortunately, those fears were both overlooked and underestimated.
Now, an advisory council to the U.S. Federal Reserve is warning the Fed that its record $85 billon-a-month stimulus and ultra-low interest rates are fueling new bubbles in student loans and farmland.
"Recent growth in student-loan debt, to nearly $1 trillion, now exceeds credit-card outstandings and has parallels to the housing crisis," according to minutes of the council's Feb. 8 meeting.
In addition, "agricultural land prices are veering further from what makes sense," the council said. "Members believe the run-up in agriculture land prices is a bubble resulting from persistently low interest rates."

5 Things the Federal Reserve Hopes You'll Never Find Out
Most Americans assume the U.S. Federal Reserve is a powerful government institution that seeks only to safeguard the dollar, boost the economy and drive employment higher.
That's what the Fed wants you to think.
The illusion of the Fed as a stabilizing, positive government entity has more or less existed since its creation under dubious circumstances in 1913.
"It not only avoided the word bank, it cleverly implied federal, or government, control over the establishment of a pool of reserves that would backstop the new banking 'system,'" said Money Morning Capital Wave Strategist Shah Gilani.

FOMC Meeting Message: Don't Blame Us for Sluggish Economy
The Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC) meeting concluded today (Wednesday) with one clear message to Washington: Thanks for the lousy economy.
Central bank members cited only "moderate" expansion in economic activity and a slow improvement in the stubbornly high unemployment level.
Acknowledging the economy is moving at an unhurried pace, the FOMC members pointed an accusing finger at Capitol Hill.
"Fiscal policy is restraining economic growth," the statement read. That remark was in direct reference to a deadlocked Congress, sequestration and its far-reaching impact.
A spate of fresh economic reports back that sentiment:

David Stockman: Thanks to the Fed, We're in "Monetary Fantasyland"
David Stockman, who served as budget director under President Ronald Reagan, is taking aim at a favorite target: the U.S. Federal Reserve.
Stockman minced no words in a Monday interview on FOX Business' "Varney & Co."
Speaking of the Fed, he told host Stuart Varney, "They have violated every rule of sound money that's ever existed. They've got the money market rates at zero. They have managed and rigged the entire yield curve so nothing is real out there. It's all trading against the Fed."
He said speculators will continue to invest as long as the Fed can hold the bond price up and the yield down "and keep shoveling out free overnight money."
"We're in a monetary fantasyland," Stockman said.

Why We Can't Avoid Ben Bernanke's "Monetary Cliff"
When it comes to the Federal Reserve, an accurate "reading of the tea leaves" means paying attention to all of the fine print. And while the markets cheered last week's FOMC meeting with yet another rally, a deeper look at Ben Bernanke's press conference left me with a slightly different taste in my mouth.
If you sift through the "Fedspeak," it becomes obvious that the Fed is now lining up a "monetary cliff" that's bigger than the fiscal one we spent the last half of 2012 worrying about.

I'm looking for a FF handguard. The Rainier Arms Evolution tickles my fancy (link below). I'm going to mount a bipod and like the looks of the rail on top of the handguard (even though I'm unlikely to use it). I'm an engineer so I find the triangular cutouts particularly appealing.
Should I get a 12" or 15" handguard? How long does a FF handguard need to be to cover the gas block of a rifle length gas system? Should I get the longer one for better bipod placement?
These are the things I am concerned about in order of importance:
1) Weight
2) Appearance
3) Cost
I haven't set my heart on the Rainier Evolution so if you think there is a better handguard to suit my needs then by all means let me know. If you think tubular handguards are terrible, or that I'm missing something when considering the handguard, then please weigh in.
Just to reiterate, my main question is what handguard length do you think is the most appropriate?

Bloomington, IN (Sports Network) - Ben Chappell threw for 382 yards and four touchdowns, as the Indiana Hoosiers survived with a 36-34 victory over the Arkansas State Red Wolves in non-conference action at Memorial Stadium.
Chappell threw for nearly 300 yards and three touchdowns in the second half alone, as IU (4-2) ended a two-game slide and also completed a sweep of its four non-conference opponents. Tandon Doss caught eight passes for 103 yards and a TD, while Damarlo Belcher finished with 121 yards on six catches.
Arkansas State (2-5) quarterback Ryan Aplin completed 33-of-44 passes for 275 yards, throwing for two touchdowns and running for another two in the loss. His 33 completions were a school record, while Dwayne Frampton set an ASU single-game record with 12 receptions. He finished with 93 receiving yards and a touchdown.
The Red Wolves got on the board first, as Aplin capped a 12-play, 85-yard drive with a one-yard touchdown plunge.
IU cut the deficit to 7-3 following a 20-yard field goal by Mitch Ewald with 20 seconds to play in the opening quarter.
Ewald added three more points on a 34-yarder at the 6:15 mark of the second quarter.
Arkansas State answered with another touchdown drive, as Aplin scored his second TD of the day on a four-yard run to make it a 14-6 game.
But Chappell marched the Hoosiers right down the field, and he found Doss for a seven-yard scoring strike. However, the Hoosiers were not able to convert the two-point attempt as they still trailed, 14-12.
IU grabbed a 19-14 lead at the 4:08 mark of the third quarter, as Chappell hooked up with Terrance Turner for a 27-yard touchdown pass.
Ewald pushed the Hoosiers' lead to 22-14 on a 46-yard field goal with 13:19 to play in the fourth quarter.
The Red Wolves answered with a quick scoring drive, as Sirgregory Thornton scored on a six-yard run with 11:39 to play. They went for two but could not convert, and the score remained 22-20.
IU responded with a five-play, 60-yard drive, capped by Chappell's 16-yard touchdown pass to Max Dedmond to extend the Hoosiers' lead to 29-20 with 10:04 remaining.
The seesaw battle continued on ASU's next possession, as Aplin hooked up with Frampton for a five-yard touchdown pass to once again make it a two-point game.
But the Hoosiers struck again on the very first play of their next drive, as Chappell found Belcher for a 65-yard scoring strike to push IU's lead to 36-27 with 7:46 remaining.
The Red Wolves refused to go away, and Aplin threw a late 22-yard touchdown pass to Thornton with 47 seconds left, but the onside kick traveled out of bounds and IU ran out the final seconds.
Hoosiers' running back Trea Burgess, starting in place of the injured Darius Willis (knee), ran for 96 yards on 19 carries.

OPM eases burden to hire people with disabilities

Feds make progress in disability hiring, but lofty goal looms large
The federal government now employs more full-time workers with disabilities than it has at any time over the past 20 years, according to a new report from the Office of Personnel Management. President Barack Obama pledged in 2010 to hire 100,00 additional people with disabilities over the next five years. While the Government Accountability Office reported in May the government was not on track to meet that goal, the director of OPM, John Berry, said the new report shows agencies are "moving smartly" toward fulfilling it.

Flory Jagoda
|Flory Jagoda
|Birth name
|Flora Kabilio
21 December 1923
Sarajevo, Kingdom of Yugoslavia
|Ladino, Sephardic
|Musician, singer-songwriter
|Guitar, vocals, Accordion
|Associated acts
|Ramon Tasat
Tim Sparks
|Official website
Flory Jagoda (born Flora Kabilio in 21 December 1923) is a Bosnian Jewish-American guitarist, composer and singer. She is known for her interpretation of Ladino songs.
Flory Jagoda was born to a Bosnian Jewish family in 1923, and grew up in the Bosnian town of Vlasenica and in Sarajevo. She arrived in America as a war bride in 1946. She was raised in the Sephardic tradition in the musical Altaras family.
The Sephardic community of Sarajevo and its surrounding communities were nearly obliterated during World War II.[1] During the war Jagoda was interned on the island of Korčula on the Dalmatian Coast. Her family escaped to Italy where she met and soon married Harry Jagoda, then in the U.S. military after which she immigrated to the United States.
Jagoda's recording Kantikas Di Mi Nona (Songs of My Grandmother) consists of songs her grandmother, a Sephardic folksinger, taught her as a young girl. Following the release of her second recording, Memories of Sarajevo, she recorded La Nona Kanta (The Grandmother Sings), songs she herself wrote for her grandchildren.
Now in her 80's Flory has stated that Arvoliko: The Little Tree, released in 2006, will be her final solo recording. The tree, located in Bosnia, is said to be the only marker of the mass grave of 42 massacred members of the Altaras family. She refers to her four recordings as representing the four musical stages of her life. In 2006 she also released a series of duets with Ramón Tasat, Kantikas de amor i vida: Sephardic Duets.[2]
Ladino is in serious danger of extinction but it is experiencing a minor revival among Sephardic communities, especially in music. Jagoda is a leader in this revival.[3][4]
In 2002 she received a Lifetime Honor by the National Heritage Fellowship and the National Endowment for the Arts for her efforts in passing on the tradition of Ladino music.[5] In 2002, Ankica Petrovic produced a documentary film about Flory and her story. Despite being in her 80's, Flory Jagoda continues to teach, write, and perform concerts.

Nobody's Neutral In Net Neutrality Debate 104
Posted by samzenpus
from the picking-sides dept.
from the picking-sides dept.
ygslash writes Michael Wolff at USA Today has a long list of the many stakeholders in the net neutrality debate, and what each has to gain or lose. The net neutrality issue has made its way into the mainstream consciousness, thanks to grassroots activism and some help from John Oliver on HBO. But it's not as simple as just net neutrality idealists versus the cable companies or versus the FCC. One important factor that has raised the stakes in net neutrality is the emergence ("unanticipated" by Wolff, but not by all of us) of the Internet as the primary medium for distribution of video content. And conversely, the emergence of video content in general and Netflix in particular as by far the most significant consumers of Internet bandwidth. So anyone involved in the distribution of video content has a lot to gain or lose by the outcome of the net neutrality struggle.

Sedalia's Weekend Events – Weekend of August 8
Here's a look at what's going on in Sedalia this weekend!
Here's a look at what's going on in Sedalia this weekend!
The little caboose on South 65 has been the Sedalia Visitors Center for a few years now. Most of us drive by it every day without giving it much thought. I know I did!
Here's a look at the events going on in our area this weekend!
Sedalia has a rich, storied history that most of us in town are aware of, but don't think a lot about. In fact, every day we probably go right by some of the landmarks and important sites in town that meant a lot to our forefathers. Shutter Glimpses, a photographic art exhibit by Moonlight 10 Photography, will be displaying some of those images at the Katy Depot starting this weekend.
Winter is coming, like it or not. You're probably getting your car ready, you're getting the shovel out of the garage and getting out your winter clothes. While you're doing that, think of maybe helping out some local kids.
The Katy Depot is one of those local places that is rich in Sedalia History. It's come a long way since when I was a kid, and it was a sad state of disrepair. Now, it's a thriving, educational hub where history comes to life in modern times.
The American Red Cross came back to Sedalia, this time with a little help from the St. Louis Cardinals. The blood drive was held at the Katy Depot. The turnout was great and those who donated got a specially designed shirt from the St. Louis Cardinals.
The St. Louis Cardinals and American Red Cross have teamed up to help save lives with a blood drive this Friday, July 26, at the Katy Depot Women's Waiting Room located at 600 South Third Street. The blood drive will be from 10:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m.
Kids, I am one of those people whose Netflix queue looks like either the most boring or the most violent in the history of mankind. My boyfriend complains that it seems like all I'm interested in are long, somewhat morbid documentaries about World War II, World War I, Nazis, the Civil War, bombs and Mythbusters. Well, I can't help it! I love history. I love all kinds of stuff like that. So it is the kind of thing I'm definitely excited about looking into on a local level. And you can do that anytime with the Katy Depot.

Best ham for Thanksgiving?
- h
- Hershey Bomar Nov 14, 2005 06:40 PM
I'm not much for turkey. It's been awhile since I've had ham. What's my best bet?
I think somebody mentioned some place in Connecticut. Does anybody remember.
Ordered a Kurobuta ham from Rosengarten (link below) last year for Easter, and it was, hands down, the best ham I've ever tasted. Absolutely phenomenal! Really, better than any other ham I've tasted by an order of magnitude.
I've heard rumors that Rosengarten's hams came from here: http://www.snakeriverfarms.com/produc.... If that is true, then you could get one from UptownPrime.com for about half of what Rosengarten charges.
re: David Kahn
These hams sound delicious but I don't see that ordering from UptownPrime.com saves any money.
I checked both links and these are the prices I found:
Rosengarten's prices are:
half-ham (7-9 lbs) $99 = $10 shipping
whole-ham $149 + $20 shipping
UptownPrime: 3-4 lbs = $65
Is there something I'm not understanding?
re: Jane M
No, you are correct. I just looked quickly at the uptownprime.com price, and didn't notice that it's a much smaller ham. (Also boneless, which I've never liked.) I guess Rosengarten it is.
re: David Kahn
Is it really that good? I want to supplement my turkey with a ham. In the past, I've used a Honey Baked Ham, a Smithfield Ham (both spiral sliced), a ham from Karl Ehmer - all good but not the way I remember a good old-fashioned ham should taste.
I'll order one from Rosengarten if they're really, really special :)
re: Jane M
Everybody has different tastes, and yours may be very different from mine. That said, the Rosengarten ham I got last Easter was the best I've ever tasted. Really moist and juicy, deeply flavorful, rich and succulent. (And, in addition to Easter dinner itself, the ham and eggs we had for a week or two afterwards were insanely good.)
I can't be the only person on this board, however, to have tried one of these hams. Maybe some others could weigh in?
re: David Kahn
I had one and it was excellent. I'm not so sure they're still available even though the link seems to work.
Also, it was Snake River Farms. Another name for kurobata is Berkshire ham, some other possible sources:
Heritage Farms:
Preferred Meats:
Berkshire Meats:
Snake River Farms:
some others but might not have kurobata:
Niman Ranch:
Eberly Poultry:
Uptown Prime:
If you can get to NYC, there's only one choice:
Kurowycky Meat Products
124 1st Avenue
New York, NY 10009
(212) 477-0344
Their hams are the very best quality, not to mention by far the best price. (For what it's worth, Martha Stewart loves them.) http://www.ukrweekly.com/Archive/1998...
Unfortunately, they don't do mail order.
Here is a link to the best ham I've ever had. Nothing else has come close. From the heart of pork country.
I did not like the Rosengarten ham, at all. For us, it had an odd baked bean tasting spice rub, the meat had an off putting soft wet texture, the cure was overly sweet not salty, and ALL the fat had been trimmed off (the horror! Roast ham with no delicious fat!). The seasoning and overly sweet taste made it useless for leftovers. We ended up throwing it all away. Rosengarten's customer service was very nice about hearing our concerns, and refunded all our money.
For Christmas 2006 we had a Burger's Smokehouse Country ham (smoked, not aged), precooked. Although labeled as a country ham, when you purchase it precooked from Burger's, they somehow infuse enough moisture in the cooking process so that it's just as moist as a quality city ham (wet cure). We really enjoyed it as something different, fantastic for leftovers. It's so good we've ordered one for Easter 2007.
When I have a taste for that city ham taste, Trader Joe's and other stores now sell Niman Ranch thick ham steaks that are the best city ham I've found locally. Delicious.

With generous support from Wells Fargo, Friends of Frederick County has launched the "Clean Water – Healthy Kids" campaign to clean streams, plant trees and help residents understand the connection between clean streams, drinking water, health and civic pride.
We invite you to be part of the Rock Creek clean up team.
There will be four 2-hour clean ups this Fall. Please choose one that works for you, your family, your friends, your church group, club or affiliated organization. Working on this campaign is a great way to get community service hours.
A review of tap water test results submitted to the State of Maryland by Frederick City reveal widespread contamination of city tap water with dangerous levels of chlorination by-products. During the water treatment process chlorine mixes with organic material in the water (soil/sediment) and forms disinfectant byproducts (DBPs) that are known to cause adverse health effectsand are regulated as carcinogens. Two of the most well-studied DBPs, Trihalomethanes (THMs) and Haloacetic Acids (HAAs) are found in Frederick City's drinking water posing a potential health risk to Frederick City residents. The Maximum Contaminant Level (MCL) for safe drinking water established by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is 80 parts per billion (ppb) for THMs and 60 ppb for HAAs. Read full report here.
Results from a Public Information Act request to the Maryland Department of the Environment for Frederick City water sampling data between 2011-2014 revealed that:
These contaminants are the result of organic material in the water reacting with chlorine products used to treat it. The higher the levels of organic pollution in the source water the more difficult it is to treat, and the higher the levels of chlorinated bi-products that are typically found in treated tap water
Lake Linganore and Lower Linganore Creek provide 42.4% of the total surface water sourced for Frederick City's drinking water . Current erosion levels at the Lake are 5 times the state standard, clearly contributing to Frederick city's tap water contamination problem. In 2007 the Gardner Board of County Commissioners (BOCC) strengthened the county's protective stream buffer ordinance so that it reflected the scientific recommendations to protect our source waters, streams and wetlands. In 2013 the Young BOCC reversed that and weakened the county's protective stream buffer ordinance substantially. Moreover the Young BOCC has approved rezoning 1346 acres for residential development in the Lower Linganore Creek drainage, with 913 additional acres on the agenda for approval this summer. Minimizing stream protection and adding additional pollution to Frederick City's source water will make a problem that is already five times worse than it should be – even worse for the City. And, we should expect higher levels of these carcinogenic treatment by-products in Frederick City water.
It is worth noting that the safe drinking water standard (MCL) is based on an annual average; Frederick water violated this limit at 3 of 8 sampling sites in 2013. But shorter-term, legal spikes above the MCL, like those mentioned above, may also be associated with serious health consequences, especially during pregnancy. The given percentages above don't mean illegally high levels, however the spikes, which may be short-term and legal, could still be harmful.

The Potomac Watershed Partnership, in cooperation with the Maryland DNR Forest Service present the Backyard Buffers Program. This program is designed to assist homeowners who have a stream or other waterway on or adjacent to their property to create a streamside buffer of native trees and shrubs. A streamside buffer can create habitat for wildlife, reduce peak winter temperatures, and reduce the amount of sediment, fertilizer, and toxic materials that enter our waterways. Deep-rooted trees and shrubs can also stabilize streambanks, protecting them from erosion…
Backyard Buffer packet reservations are typically taken during the month of March, with bags available for pickup at a designated local site in time for the spring planting season. A limited number of bags are available each year on a first-come first-served basis.

Did you know that an estimated one million acres of Maryland's land is currently lawn, unnecessarily costing land owners like you time and money? Through Lawn to Woodland, the Maryland Forest Service is offering to plant trees on designated property owner's lawn free of charge if they own one to four acres of unused lawn. Unused lawn can be converted to tree cover at no cost to landowners while simultaneously improving the health of our environment.

Based upon a preliminary assessment it is clear that there are highly erodible soils and steep slopes adjacent to the streams and water bodies in the Linganore at Eaglehead PUD. Clearing the land for development exacerbates sediment runoff into Lake Linganore and the little tributaries that feed it. Since Lake Linganore is already experiencing a significant sedimentation problem, allowing development on these soils will make a serious problem even worse.
Methodology for Identifying Highly Erodible Soils and Steep Slopes in the Lake Linganore at Eaglehead PUD
Soils based on National Resource Conservation Service (NRCS) Soil Survey [1] within the Lake Linganore at Eaglehead PUD (as revised 5/17/13) identified as being highly erodible are presented.
The most thorough discussion of soil erodibility is in Baltimore County's "A Methodology for Evaluating Steep Slopes and Erodible Soils Adjacent to Watercourses and Wetlands"[2]. "The 'High', 'Medium', and 'Low' values were assigned to each Map Unit Symbol (MUSYM) in place of K factor values to aid users of this document in determining which soil erodibility scores to use. 'High' erodibility is determined based on the narrative ratings for various MUSYM's. The Web Soil Survey contains a multitude of K factor values for each soil map unit. All of these values were taken into consideration when assigning the 'High", 'Medium', and 'Low' values in Appendix A" (Baltimore County). If the soil is not listed in the Baltimore County Appendix A, then a Kf or Kw factor of 0.32 or greater is considered highly erodible. Steep slopes were identified by overlaying the NRI/FSD prepared in September 2007 and tracing the slopes identified as greater than 15% (spot checked and revised using 10' County contours). These areas are identified by legend symbol on the attached concept plan.
Keep your eye open to the Jefferson Tech Park construction. The workers are in close proximity to a stream flowing through the property.

I received a reply from the lovely Mr Lippman:
Hi! Mike here!
Mr. Ferry and I have some serious reservations about the content and tone of your little essay here. First of all, in my most recent conversation with Bryan he assured me that I am "of the finest caliber." So perhaps, in fact, it is YOU who are making the typoes! The only person who would doubt the validity of The Real Bryan Ferry is a doubter. I can guarantee 100% iron clad that Mr. Ferry has no time for doubters. Also, how DARE YOU insinuate that Mr. Ferry has lost his facilties simpley because of His Knowledge concerning The Golden Kingdom Of Dreams. I am generally quite a cheerful person (hi!), but this saddens my heart greatly. I'm afraid I'm going to have to assure you that a legal preperation is in the works for not one, but now TWO, slanderers.
With Regret But Still A Smile,
How nice to hear from Mr Lippman- or Mike; I hope he doesn't mind if I call him that. It's not often that a prominent attorney from the US takes the time to reply to my Tumblr posts, so I feel extremely privileged that someone took the time in this case.

Chaplain Darrell Headrick
Randolph-Macon College celebrated Baccalaureate service on Friday, May 31, 2013
in the Brock Sports and Recreation Center. The event honored graduating seniors
and brought together the R-MC community in a service that marks the beginning of
the Commencement celebration. R-MC Chaplain Darrell Headrick presided over the service.
"This was my 28th Baccalaureate at the college," says Headrick. "The R-MC Baccalaureate
has consistently had the largest attendance of any of the five Virginia United Methodist
colleges and universities. Typical attendance for the other schools is 150-250,
while Randolph-Macon's has averaged 900-1,000. I have always included as many students
in worship leadership as possible. In the service we acknowledge before God the
achievements of our soon-to-be graduates and we offer God's blessing upon them as
they venture into the future."
Student Leaders
Among the student leaders this year was the first recipient of the Jewish Student
of the Year Award, Justin Baellow
Baellow, an economics/business and arts management major, recently accepted a leadership
position with the Hillel program at the University of Florida. Baellow, who helped
develop R-MC's Hillel, an organization that offers programs and services to Jewish
students, is also the recipient of the Algernon Sidney Sullivan Award.
Also among the student leaders was
Alyssa Warren '13, who received the George Spotswood Tarry Prize
and the Stephen H. Watts Scholarship for Biology. Warren, a biology and religious
studies major, served as the student speaker at Commencement and has been accepted
to Eastern Virginia Medical School through RMC's joint BS-MD program with EVMS.
Three Bailey Scholars who participated in Baccalaureate will be attending seminary
in the fall. Randy
Timmerman '13 (majors: religious studies and computer science)
will be attending Duke Divinity School, Ashley Roth '13 (major:
religious studies) is headed to Wesley Theological Seminary, and Daniel Burch
'13 (major: religious studies) will attend Union Theological Seminary.
Other student worship leaders include: Ashly Robertson '13 (major:
psychology), who will attend graduate school at Swansea University in Wales,
Terry Clark '13 (major: biology),
Elizabeth Luminoso '13 (majors: religious studies and
English), the recipient of the Mary Mildred Sullivan Award, and Elanya Chin
'13 (majors: philosophy and international studies), the recipient of
the Janet Harvey Trivette and W. Proctor Harvey Jr. Endowed Student Award.
"It was a lovely ceremony," says Headrick. "Amid the wonderful music provided by
the Randolph-Macon Concert Choir and a brass ensemble, we had students, faculty,
and staff together in celebration."

May Swenson
Anna Thilda May "May" Swenson (May 28, 1913 in Logan, Utah – December 4, 1989 in Bethany Beach, Delaware) was an American poet and playwright. She is considered one of the most important and original poets of the 20th century, as often hailed by the noted critic Harold Bloom.
The first child of Margaret and Dan Arthur Swenson, she grew up as the eldest of 10 children in a Mormon household where Swedish was spoken regularly and English was a second language. Much of her later poetry works were devoted to children (e.g. the collection Iconographs, 1970). She also translated the work of contemporary Swedish poets, including the selected poems of Tomas Tranströmer.

Carole Berglie
Thank you Kevan for your comment. You are 100% correct. Not only that, but this website has reprinted May Swenson's poems without permission (they are protected under U.S. copyright law) and has reprinted them with errors and other problems, thereby violating Ms. Swenson's ethics and philosophy. In the supposed interests of furthering poetry they have negated the essence of the poetic spirit. They have stolen and misrepresented. All readers should be cautioned to obtain legitmate copies of her work, not these travesties.
Kevan Eyre
May Swenson is my aunt on my mother's side. I knew and associated with her for over 35 years. The brief biography on this site is in error in at least three respects. First, May was born in 1913 as opposed to 1919. Second, May graduated from Utah Agricultural College (now know as Utah State University) before she was 20 years old, so about 1932 or 1933.
Thirdly, although May was apparently a lesbian she would be greatly saddened to have any of her work pigeon holed with any such label and it is very unfortunate that some people who do not understand her work or her intentions attempt to further their agenda by misrepresenting and twisting one narrow thread of her works. Her most noted works covered dozens of subject areas, most notably her love for her family, her parents, God, nature and the great outdoors. Her 'love' poems mentioned in the biography were not even published until after her death and it is unknown if she ever wanted them published. Most importantly, and in reality, her 'love' poems are NOT rooted in 'lesbian sexuality' and 'eroticism' per se, but are splendid examples of how love, romance and commitment feel to the human spirit regardless of gender or sexual orientation. Of course poetry is not only the expressions of the poet but is most fulfilling when played upon the heartstrings of the listener or reader. It is understandable that readera with differing sexual orientations may find a variety of gender related meanings in the poetry which they are experiencing but it would be offensive to May for anyone to circumscribe her work in such a finite way as has been done here. I hope this site will adjust the biography accordingly.
