There are not many people who would've predicted Kevin Magnussen would finish on the podium in Australia, but that's exactly what the rookie did.
Having gone the whole of the 2013 campaign without a top-three finish, McLaren endured a solid if unspectacular pre-season. However, it all came together for Magnussen at Albert Park this weekend.
First he blew his team-mate away in qualifying as he started P4 with Jenson Button failing to make it into Q3 and then the Dane produced a very good start as he ducked in front of pole-sitter Lewis Hamilton off the line to move up to P3.
Although he came within one second of Red Bull's Daniel Ricciardo during the final few laps, he settled for third in his first F1 race, matching former McLaren driver Lewis Hamilton's third place when he made his debut in 2007.
"It's hard to believe and it seems so surreal. The car was so much better than it has been and I had just exactly what we needed for the whole race," Magnussen said during the podium interviews.
"The preparation we have done have been fantastic. I have never had a Formula 1 race and you only get limited time testing, so congratulations to the team for doing such a good job."

Pompeii Lecture Series
Herculaneum: The Archaeology of Catastrophe—Life and Death in a Roman Resort Town
Dr. Janet Monge, Curator-in-Charge, Physical Anthropology Section, speaks. On a hot summer day in the bustling Bay of Naples, Mt. Vesuvius exploded and rained down superheated gas and lava onto the nearby towns of Pompeii and Herculaneum. Some inhabitants of Herculaneum escaped into beach caves, which were used to store the boats for the heavy marine traffic into the cove bay. Their deaths by heat shock—instantly killing victims by vaporizing their soft tissues but preserving their hard, bony skeletons under layers of volcanic ash—affords a unique opportunity to study life and death among the ancient Romans, in ways that are truly unique in the study of the bioarchaeology of the ancient world. Admission: $10, general public; $5, Penn Museum members and Franklin Institute members.

This story was updated 3:44 p.m., March 14, 2013.
In light of an anticipated $152 million budget deficit next fiscal year, Prince George's County Executive Rushern L. Baker III (D) announced plans to eliminate hundreds of county jobs, implement furloughs and make cuts in county agencies.
"There were cuts in programs," Barry Hudson, a Baker spokesman, said of the proposed $3.24 billion budget for fiscal 2014. "We were able to whittle down services. In some cases, it did end up being people."
Baker's proposed budget calls for offering early retirement packages to about 500 of the county's roughly 6,000 employees, said Thomas Himler, deputy chief administrative officer for budget, finance and administration. The package would offer $1,000 for each year served, he said.
Baker's budget is based on the assumption that at least 200 employees will take the offer before the start of the next fiscal year, which begins July 1, and provide savings of $18 million by not filling the positions, Himler said. County first responders and other public safety personnel would not be eligible for the offer, Himler said.
Even with proposed staffing changes, county leaders said they still won't be sure until later this year how variables such as cuts in federal spending may impact the county's budget planning.
"This will be a very strange budget process for everyone," Himler said.
The budget must be approved by the County Council before the plan can go into effect July 1. The fiscal 2013 budget was $3.22 billion.
The deficit is due to a combination of sagging revenue — real property taxes are expected to be down $11 million, or 1.6 percent, due to continuing weakness in the county's real estate market — and escalating costs, according to officials.
Himler said he was optimistic that enough county employees would take the early retirement packages, but the county may have to resort to layoffs if enough don't take the offer.
Remaining employees will be required take five furlough days, which is expected to save the county government $7.8 million, Himler said.
"Nobody who works on the senior staff likes furloughs," Himler said.
The county will use $47 million in additional general funding from real property taxes, income taxes and transfer/recordation taxes to help address the deficit.
The savings breakdown includes $19 million in county funding to outside entities such as Prince George's Community College and libraries; $15 million in debt service savings from outstanding debt and staggering bond sales; $8 million in additional operating cost savings; $7.5 million in IT savings and $5 million for risk management and other post-employment benefits.
Those savings will be reflected by cutting the size of two police classes in the coming fiscal year from 50 recruits to 40 recruits and changing the county library management structure by having most libraries share a floating manager who splits time between multiple branches.
Despite the furloughs, the county is also allowing for merit-based salary increases of around 3 percent, something that has not occurred in the past two budgets. Even with the furlough days, some staffers could see about a 2 percent increase in wages, Himler said.
For the county school system, the budget includes $1.69 billion — the full amount requested by the school board — for kindergarten to 12th grade education.
Included in the budget is a plan to earmark $8 million to support after-school programs and other initiatives at schools in the Transforming Neighborhoods Initiatives program. The TNI program, supported by Baker, has the county government focus on improving communities in troubled parts of the county.
"If we help some of the worst performing schools, the overall system is going to improve," Himler said.
The council is scheduled to adopt the budget by June 1.

As I grow closer to 18, I will have to get my own job, and live on my own. It doesn't make sense for me to pay $75-$100 of my own money to host this website, if it is for others. Trust me, I love helping people, but I don't want to be paying $75-$100 (this figure has doubled since I started hosting Absol's tools) each year. I don't require donations yet, and I can keep the site up for another year on my own, but any and all donations will be greatly appreciated.

Gallery: Grödians is a Vibrant & Energy Efficient Social Housing Commun...
The project is made up of 34 new-build social houses for Hjaltland Housing Association and provide a variety of 1-4 bedroom dwellings. The houses are oriented towards the street to improve access and security, and are also positioned to create shelter and encourage the growth of trees and shrubs in hopes of reducing wind chill from the cold North Sea winds. The architecture references Lerwick's distinct town centre gavel frontages. Gray, blue, red and purple exterior colors are vibrant and visually maintain a level of cheer even during the darker months, yet the colors also tie in with the surrounding town.
Design of the neighborhood is geared more towards pedestrians and walking paths connect the community together. Cars are not discouraged, but parking is minimized and set to the side in a communal area rather than at each home's front. A local bus line stops next to the community and other amenities are located nearby for easy access. Three recycling centers provide convenient access to dispose of glass, tins, paper and plastic in separate containers. And excavated rock was reused extensively to construct stone retaining walls within the scheme.
The homes were constructed using timber kits, which was fast, sustainable and a familiar method in the area. Many of the contractors working on the project were locally based, which provided support of the local economy and reduced carbon emissions of travel and transport. The entire project was built 15% above the local standard's baseline in terms of energy and carbon use. Air tightness was also above standard code, which ensures the homes loose minimal heat coming from the underfloor heating and heat recovery systems. Heat is provided by the Lerwick district heating scheme, which incinerates rubbish. The project was shortlisted for the RIAS Andrew Doolan 'Best Building in Scotland' award.

Timgad lies on the northern slopes of the Aurès mountains and was created ex nihilo as a military colony by the Emperor Trajan in AD 100. With its square enclosure and orthogonal design based on the cardo and decumanus, the two perpendicular routes running through the city, it is an excellent example of Roman town planning.
Sur le versant nord des Aurès, Timgad fut créée ex nihilo, en 100 apr. J.-C., par l'empereur Trajan comme colonie militaire. Avec son enceinte carrée et son plan orthogonal commandé par le cardo et le decumanus, les deux voies perpendiculaires qui traversaient la ville, c'est un exemple parfait d'urbanisme romain.
على المنحدر الشمالي من جبال أوراس، نشأت تيمجاد من لا شيء عام 100 بعد الميلاد على يد الأمبراطور تراجان كمستوطنة عسكرية. وتشكّل المدينة - بفنائها المربع وتصميمها القائم على الأعمدة الذي يشرف عليها الكاردو والديكومانوس وهما الطريقان الرئيسيان اللذان يعبران المدينة- مثالاً مكتملاً للتنظيم المديني الروماني.

Тимгад, расположенный на северных склонах гор Орес, был основан в 100 г. н.э. императором Траяном как военная колония на пустовавшем до того месте. Формой своей территории – окруженным укреплениями квадратом и прямоугольной планировкой с двумя перпендикулярными улицами (карго и декуманус), проходящими через весь город, он представляет собой прекрасный пример древнеримского градостроительства.

Timgad ligt op de noordelijke hellingen van het Auresgebergte en werd ex nihilo – uit het niets – gebouwd als militaire kolonie door keizer Trajanus in het jaar 100. De stad is een prachtig voorbeeld van Romeinse stedenbouw. Zo heeft de stad een vierkante omheining en is het rechthoekige ontwerp gebaseerd op de cardo – de weg van noord naar zuid – en decumanus – de weg van oost naar west. Deze wegen of assen vormden de twee loodrechte routes door de stad heen. Timgad was een sterke en welvarende kolonie en weerspiegelde met zijn bouwwerken de grandeur van Rome op Numidische bodem.

Outstanding Universal Value
Brief synthesis
Timgad, located to the north of the massif of the Aurès in a mountainous site of great beauty, 480 km south-east of Algiers and 110 km to the south of Constantine, is a consummate example of a Roman military colony created ex nihilo. The Colonia Marciana Traiana Thamugadi was founded in 100 A.D. by Trajan, probably as an encampment for the 3rd Augustan Legion which, thereafter, was quartered at Lambaesis. Its plan, laid out with great precision, illustrates Roman urban planning at its height. By the middle of the 2nd century, the rapid growth of the city had ruptured the narrow confines of its original foundation. Timgad spread beyond the perimeters of its ramparts and several major public buildings are built in the new quarters: Capitolium, temples, markets and baths. Most of these buildings date from the Severan period when the city enjoyed its Golden Age, also attested by immense private residences.
A strong and prosperous colony, Timgad must have served as a compelling image of the grandeur of Rome on Numidian soil. Buildings, constructed entirely of stone, were frequently restored during the course of the Empire: the Trajan Arch in the middle of the 2nd century, the Eastern gate in 146, and the Western gate under Marcus-Aurelius. The streets were paved with large rectangular limestone slabs and, as attested by the 14 baths which still may be seen today, particular attention was paid to the disposition of public conveniences. The houses, of varying sizes, dazzle by their sumptuous mosaics, which were intended to offset the absence of precious marbles. During the Christian period, Timgad was a renowned bishopric. After the Vandal invasion of 430, Timgad was destroyed at the end of the 5th century by montagnards of the Aurès. The Byzantine Reconquest revived some activities in the city, defended by a fortress built to the south, in 539, reusing blocks removed from Roman monuments. The Arab invasion brought about the final ruin of Thamugadi which ceased to be inhabited after the 8th century.
Criterion (ii): The site of Timgad, with its Roman military camp, its model town-planning and its particular type of civil and military architecture reflects an important interchange of ideas, technologies and traditions exercised by the central power of Rome on the colonisation of the high plains of Antique Algeria.
Criterion (iii): Timgad adopts the guidelines of Roman town-planning governed by a remarkable grid system. Timgad thus constitutes a typical example of an urban model, the permanence of the original plan of the military encampment having governed the development of the site throughout all the ulterior periods and still continues to bear witness to the building inventiveness of the military engineers of the Roman civilization, today disappeared.
Criterion (iv): Timgad possesses a rich architectural inventory comprising numerous and diversified typologies, relating to the different historical stages of its construction: the defensive system, buildings for the public conveniences and spectacles, and a religious complex. Timgad illustrates a living image of Roman colonisation in North Africa over three centuries.
Clarification of the boundaries of the property has been submitted but still requires review. The entire vestiges of the city will be included within the boundary. Moreover, an adequate buffer zone is envisaged.
No intervention has taken place at the property since its inscription on the World Heritage List. Natural phenomena (earthquakes, weather...) have never affected the site, which displays a remarkable stability. The organization of an annual cultural festival has resulted in an influx of visitors, exercising pressure on the conservation of the site due to climbing over and trampling of the fragile structures, and repeated passages of engines and service vehicles on vulnerable structures, graffiti, and the management of uncontrolled rubbish. The Ministry of Culture relocated the activities related to the Annual Festival of Timgad outside the site. This will mitigate the negative impacts on the property. Restoration work executed along with the ongoing excavations has not altered the integrity of the monuments that are, in any case, rendered vulnerable due to the lack of conservation and management operations, and over exploitation.
The ensemble of the vestiges and artefacts excavated bear witness to the Outstanding Universal Value that enabled inscription of the property. The abandonment of the antique site, although at a later period, and the conduct of archaeological excavations almost continually since 1881 to 1960 has enabled the city of Thamugadi to avoid the construction of recent buildings, as the mechanical means required would have disturbed the ancient vestiges.
Protection and management requirements
The Archaeological site of Timgad is governed by a Protection and Presentation Plan (PPMVSA), a legal and technical instrument establishing the conservation and management actions at the property. The body managing the property is the Office of Cultural Properties Management and Exploitation (OGEBC). It executes all activities concerning the protection, maintenance, documenting and development of programmes for presentation and promotion. The OGEBC implements its protection and management programme for the site in cooperation with the Cultural Directorate of the Wilaya (province) that has a service responsible for cultural heritage. The legal and management framework comprises Laws 90-30 (regional law), 98-04 (relating to the protection of cultural heritage), 90-29 (relating to town-planning and development), and the Master Plan for Development and Town-Planning (PDAU) of the Timgad community, 1998. Nevertheless, the State Party considers that there is a need to revise the legal and administrative provisions concerning the property to better ensure its conservation and presentation. There is a need to examine the increasing impact of the insufficient regulation of visitor numbers and vehicles affecting the fragile structures and their surrounds.
Long Description
Timgad, which lies on the northern slopes of the Aurès mountains in a site of great natural beauty, is a consummate example of a Roman military colony created ex nihilo by the Emperor Trajan in AD 100 under the name of Thamugadi. With its square enclosure and orthogonal design based on the cardo and decumanus, the two perpendicular routes running through the city, it is an excellent example of Roman town planning at its height, while it would have served as a compelling image of the grandeur of Rome on Numidian soil.
Inscribed in a square enceinte measuring 355 m on each side, the layout of Timgad is based on a precise orthogonal grid, originating from the decumanus, which follow the axis of the military road from Theveste to Lambesis, and the north-south axis of the cardo. The result is a network of insulae of regular proportions, which is interrupted only to the south in order to provide space for large public buildings: the forum and its annexes (basilica and curia), temples, a theatre with a seating capacity of 3,500, a market and baths. In the north-east sector, there are other baths and a public library, conforming with the network of insulae, open into the cardo.
By the mid-2nd century, the rapid growth of the city could no longer be constricted by the narrow confines of its original foundation. Timgad spread beyond the perimeters of the ramparts, and several major public buildings were constructed in the new quarters to the west and to the south, such as the capitolium, temples, markets and baths. Most of these buildings date from the Severan period when the city enjoyed its 'golden age', which is further attested to by immense private residential buildings such as the House of Sertius or the House of Hermaphrodite.
During the Early Empire, the buildings were frequently restored, the streets were paved with large rectangular slabs of limestone, and particular attention was paid to the disposition of public conveniences. The houses sparkled under their decor of sumptuous mosaics, which were intended to offset the absence of precious marbles.
During the Christian period, Timgad was a bishopric which became renowned at the end of the 4th century when Bishop Optat became the spokesman for the Donatist heresy. After the Vandal invasion of 430, Timgad was destroyed by tribesmen from the Aurès mountains at the end of the 5th century. The city saw a revival of activity after the Byzantine reconquest in the 6th century, but the Arab invasion brought about the destruction of Thamugadi, where occupation ceased definitively after the 8th century.Source: UNESCO/CLT/WHC

|Reminder: Make Your Holiday Reservations Now
Snowshoeing is easy to do and can get you into some back country that you would not ordinarily be able to see.
The week between Christmas and New Year's Day is one of the busiest of the year for Vermont tourism. It is considered the kick-off week for the ski season even though there has been skiing on some trails since mid November.
Skiers usually account for about half our business that week and I assume the same is true of other lodging establishments except those right at the ski resorts.
Whether you want to ski or not, right now is the time to make travel plans and get lodging reservations made.
By the way, you will find many inns have a two or three night minimum that time of year because it is such a busy time and they can't turn over rooms fast enough if they have a lot of one night reservations. You may find some exceptions and perhaps a last minute, fill-in type availability if you can only stay one night.
A good place to start a search for Vermont lodging is at the state's official tourism website: VermontVacation.com.

Methyl iodide is a highly toxic fumigant pesticide that was developed by Arysta LifeScience Corporation, and is marketed as a replacement for methyl bromide, a chemical being phased out under the Montreal Protocol because it depletes stratospheric ozone. On March 20, 2012, following an intense multi-year coalition campaign launched by PAN, Arysta pulled methyl iodide from the U.S. market. It remains in use in other countries, including Mexico.
Methyl iodide is arguably even more toxic for workers and rural communities than methyl bromide, and its use is extremely controversial. Among scientist's greatest concerns is the potential for human exposure to unsafe levels of methyl iodide from drift.
Humans exposed to methyl iodide experience dizziness, sleepiness, nausea, diarrhea, slurred speech, lack of coordination, muscle convulsions---and in some cases, pulmonary edema. Listed as an EPA Hazardous Air Pollutant, methyl iodide also affects the the lungs, liver, and kidneys.
Methyl Iodide: A Mutagenic Agent
Methyl iodide reacts readily with DNA, altering its structure and causing mutations. In a report to the California Department of Pesticide Regulation, the Scientific Review Committee on methyl iodide emphasized the fumigant's "unequivocal status as a mutagenic agent."
Synthetic chemists treat this chemical with great respect, handling it only in a fume hood using specially sealed bottles and syringes for transfer to ensure that none of this highly toxic chemical escapes.
Like all fumigants, methyl iodide is likely to drift away from application sites, putting nearby residents and farmworkers at risk. Reoccurring accidents with widely used fumigants reveal the inherent danger of methyl iodide fumigation. For example, methyl bromide was involved in 168 incidents reported to Poison Control Centers between 1993 and 2005. Metam sodium was involved in 428 over the same period. As recently as October 2005, at least 300 people, including paramedics, were poisoned by chloropicrin when a strawberry field a quarter-mile away was fumigated in Salinas, California.
Even when accidents do not occur, soil fumigation exposes communities to unsafe levels of toxins. Air monitoring in the rural community of Sisquoc detected chloropicrin — a toxic fumigant known for causing respitory harm — in levels that exceeded the 24-hour level of concern for children, as well as the acceptable cancer risks set by the California Department of Pesticide Regulation.

Review of Le Coral Hideaway Beyond Phuket
There is a wide variety of Phuket accommodation that caters for all requirements. Whether it is a luxury 5 star hotel on the beach, a backpacker style guest house in one of the party areas, or a villa that you are looking for there is plenty to choose from on the island.
Pricing varies across the island with the west coast traditionally being higher than the east although this trend is changing with the introduction of high end villas for rental in the eastern coastal areas in recent years. Lower cost accommodation suitable for budget travellers can normally be found in the west coast towns of Kata, Karon and Patong.
Prices also vary according to the season and some great bargains can be had during the rainy season when quite often there can be weeks of no rain at all.

Thanks Gingerboy.
Here ya go Elvis. The pit is a traditional offset with tuning plates. However, I have the option to allow heat in above the grate similar to Jambo pits. I have not actually cooked on it yet but ran a few test runs before I sent it off to paint. I can get the vertical smoker up to 225 while the main chamber is at 275-300. It burns about one split every 45-60 mins when running at 250.
Jambo style shown here with top damper open
Very nice...

The Community of Disc Golfers and About All Things Disc Golf
I am thinking of adding a stenciled tiger stripe design to an orange champ viking, but instead of using a rit dye I want to use spray paint and finish it off with a clear matte coat. I am planning to layer the paint as well. Would It be wise to use this in the first place? What would be a good primer for plastic? Has anyone else ever done this? If so, what kind of techniques and materials did you use? How did it turn out? How long would it last on the disc? What are your thoughts on using spray paint on a disc?
As planned out these are my materials:
Painter's tape 1" and 2"
Spray paint x 3 colors
Matte finish
Wax paper
x-acto knife
Views: 1109
I have some painted discs here at the store...they are not legal for tournaments.
They look really cool, but they are for hanging on the wall.
I would suggest staying away from paint on discs. As others have already said, paint significantly modifies the flight characteristics of discs, and thus painted discs are not legal in competitive play. Regardless, my uncle did spray paint a few of his hard-to-see discs last season. I'm not sure exactly what type of paint he used, but he was able to avoid too much clotting and chipping by putting on a pretty heavy coat. I wouldn't say the discs look all that cool (just one solid color) but the paint did indeed make a difference in the flight. The Champion Leopard he painted now flies almost as far as--and sometimes farther than--the rest of our group's drives with distance drivers (and he's Grandmaster age). The paint seems to have added some weight and glide to the disc. Consequently, every time he has the long drive with it, we always chide him pretty hard and joke about how many penalty stokes he will owe us if he ends up winning. We even gave it a funny and kinda dirty nickname: "The Painted Taint." This all makes for a good laugh, but not necessarily a better round of disc golf.
So, despite the potential benefit you might get in distance, you can expect to be paid back in spades by anyone who you attempt to play against with it. In short, like the others have said, I'd stick with Rit.
You cant use it in tourney play, if you were playing for money or for a bag tag you wouldn't be able to use it and it flies different so you wouldn't gain any benefit from practice with it. you really can't sell it after you spray paint it and you cant really take it off with out messing up the disc. I see no benefit at all only a waste of money
C. Players may not make post-production modification of discs which alter their original flight characteristics. This rule does
not forbid inevitable wear and tear from usage during play or the
moderate sanding of discs to smooth molding imperfections or scrape
marks. Discs excessively sanded or painted with a material of detectable
thickness are illegal. See sections 802.01 D, E and F.
I would point out that the rule states a player can be penalized for CARRYING an illegal disc on his or her person during a tournament, whether the disc is thrown or not...
paint away!

Fiber is your friend. If you're battling chronic diarrhea, constipation, or both, you need plenty of high-fiber foods.
"Fiber is a stool regulator, a stool normalizer," says Paul McNeely, MD, a gastroenterologist at the Ochsner Health System in New Orleans. "Fiber knows exactly how to fix constipation or diarrhea."
Like a sponge, fiber works by soaking up water, he explains. Fiber also adds bulk to the stool.
"If you have hard constipation stools, fiber pulls water out of the colon to make stools more normal, softer, give them more bulk," says McNeely. "When stools are bulkier, the colon wall can more efficiently push against them when it contracts -- so elimination is smoother."
When there's too much water in the stool, you've got diarrhea. Fiber can help loose stool. "Fiber can't work miracles," McNeely says, "but if you have a loose stool, a lot of excess liquid in the stool, the fiber in your colon will absorb and firm up the stool -- which helps diarrhea."
The thing is, most people don't get nearly enough fiber-rich foods in their diet. In fact, most people are hard-pressed to name a handful of foods with fiber -- except for bran cereal.
Yet we need at least 20 to 30 grams of dietary fiber every day to keep things rolling. If you've got a sensitive stomach, it's especially important that you get enough fiber, he advises. Don't worry about getting too much fiber -- any extra will simply be eliminated.
When you start eating more foods with fiber, start slowly -- so your system can get used to it. Some people get gas and bloating with a sudden boost in dietary fiber.
High-Fiber Food Basics
How to get enough fiber-rich foods? Eat an apple, a side of baked beans, and steamy stir-fried zucchini over brown rice and you've treated your intestines to a nice batch of dietary fiber.
All plant foods -- fruits, vegetables, grains, nuts, seeds, beans -- contain fiber. But some have more of the roughage type of fiber (called insoluble fiber) that aids digestion.
The basics about fiber:
Soluble fiber is soft stuff -- the insides of beans, peas, lentils, mangoes, apples, peaches, figs, pineapple, pears, etc. Oatmeal and oat bran are also high in soluble fiber. Soluble fiber helps reduce cholesterol and control blood sugar levels. It also acts to slow down food as it passes through your intestines, which can help prevent diarrhea.
Insoluble fiber is the roughage type of fiber your digestive system needs. It's the indigestible part of the plant -- like strawberry seeds, apple and bean skins, the bran shell on brown rice and wheat grains. Insoluble fiber helps prevent constipation. People who have irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) may find that too much insoluble fiber worsens diarrhea. If you have IBS, you may want to opt for more soluble fiber.
One note: If a fruit or vegetable has a peel, don't remove it -- or you'll lose important fiber. Important nutrients and insoluble fiber are found in potato and fruit peels.
Best Sources of Fiber
While all unprocessed plant foods have fiber, they're not created equal. Some are higher in certain types of fiber. Some have both types of fiber.
Soluble fiber foods:
- Beans
- Oats, oat bran, oatmeal
- Fruits: Apples, mangoes, plums, kiwi, pears, berries, peaches, citrus fruits, dried apricots, mangoes, figs
- Vegetables and legumes: Potatoes, peas, beans, lentils
Insoluble fiber foods:
- Wheat bran
- Whole-wheat grain
- Bulgur
- Barley
- Couscous
- Brown rice
- Seeds (including fruits with seeds)
- Various vegetables: Spinach, Brussels sprouts, broccoli, carrots, cucumbers, zucchini, celery, tomatoes, lettuce
To jump-start a high-fiber diet, reach for breakfast cereal. "You can get a good 10 grams [of fiber] from cereal," McNeely says.
- Check nutrition labels for fiber content and look for fiber-fortified foods.
- Make sure the grain is first or second in the ingredient list.
- Look for low-sugar brands. You'll avoid the extra calories.
Fiber Supplements or High-Fiber Food?
Fiber supplements also have their place, says McNeely.
"We know how hard it is to get enough fiber in your diet," he tells WebMD. "If you're trying to treat constipation or chronic diarrhea, start with a supplement. If it works, if you're feeling better, then start slowly eating high-fiber foods. It's perfectly fine to take these supplements all your life. It won't make your colon lazy. You won't become addicted to them."
Check with your doctor before taking fiber supplements, he adds, as people with specific medical conditions might need to avoid them.
One caveat: "Don't eat a fast-food diet and take supplements and think you're doing good," McNeely says. "The ideal way is through fruits and vegetables, because they provide many nutrients your body needs. But supplements can help."

Water and Light
Your trusted source of water and electricity for over 100 years.
Browse GoColumbiaMo.com Skip top Navigation. Translate this page
Transmission lines in the southern part of Columbia are being built to reliably deliver electricity to this area and meet federal standards. This project involves adding transmission lines to connect the new Millcreek substation on Peach Tree Drive with some of the existing substations.
Spring 2015 Update: The Columbia Water & Light electrical transmission line route study is underway. This part of the project includes determining where the transmission lines will be placed, where the electric distribution lines will be buried, open houses with the public and reports to the City Council. Even though actual transmission line placement and construction will not happen until 2017, preparatory work is being done along the route.
Routine surveying has been taking place and soil sample testing is underway to determine soil characteristics. Soil testing is a geotechnical engineering test to determine soil characteristics (clay or rock, for example) and stability of the subsurface layers of soil before reaching the rock bed. Most soil tests are obtained by using a slim probe for shallow testing, or a tower-type drill rig that is attached to the back of a construction truck for deeper, rock-bed type testing. There may be excess dirt as part of this process that will be raked, shoveled or vacuumed. In the event a truck would need to be parked on personal property to conduct a test in the public easement or right-of-way area, the property owner will be contacted ahead of time.
Pole placement along the route has not been determined yet, and won't occur until late 2015. Results of the surveying and soil testing will aid in the decision process about the placement and design of transmission poles and lines. There are a number of factors taken into consideration before a decision can be made, including:
Pole placement and design recommendations will be shared with the community and the City Council later in 2015. Look for an Open House announcement this summer.

Public feedback on electric transmission line project route selection
Option A was selected by the City Council as the route for the new transmission lines. The intent of the Option A alignment study is to connect 161 kilovolt circuits to the Mill Creek substation from the Grindstone, Perche Creek, and McBaine substations. The route will run along Providence, Grindstone/Nifong/Vawter School Road and Scott Boulevard. Columbia Water & Light is working on the final line design which will provide more details on which side of the road the lines will be located.
memo about Option A that went to Council on April 18, 2011
Option A Selection Matrix Results from 2011
To handle electric load growth in southern Columbia and for reliability purposes. There is a growing need for more electricity on the southern side of Columbia. Substations in the area are approaching their maximum capacity both electrically and physically. This makes them vulnerable to being overloaded which could cause power outages and damage to other equipment in the system.
Transmission systems need to be built so one outage will not cause overloading of another transmission line. If there are two outages, the system must be built so there are not cascading outages. A new substation and transmission lines in Columbia will reduce the loading on the existing substations, ensure greater electric reliability and will improve regional stability for the power grid.
Electricity is generated at a power station or power plant from fossil fuels or renewable resources. Approximately 90% of Columbia's energy comes from sources outside the city. Once the power is generated, it has to be moved to where it is going to be used. Large amounts of power are transferred with electric transmission lines. An interconnected network of transmission lines are commonly referred to as the power grid.
Transmission lines feed into substations where transformers step down the power to lower voltages. From there, power is delivered to individual electric customers by distribution lines. New distribution lines in Columbia must be placed underground according to city ordinances. In the older sections of town, distribution lines are mounted on wooden poles.
Electrical power delivery systems are built with an interconnected network of transmission and distribution lines. That way if there is a problem with one section of an electric line, operators can switch the flow and provide electricity to customers with another line. An interconnected electric grid helps the reliability of the system and can greatly reduce the length of an outage
The Columbia City Council decided to build the new transmission lines overhead. Due to the high voltage of the electricity the lines carry, it is much more involved to bury them than it is distribution lines. Transmission lines are not frequently buried in the United States due to the cost. Placing transmission lines underground in Columbia is estimated to cost $7.6 million per mile versus $1.1 million per mile for overhead construction. The estimated rate impact per customer to build the lines underground would be $8.26 per month for 20 years versus $1.18 for overhead.
Electric and Magnetic Fields (EMF) are generated by the flow of electrons. Electric fields are established between points of different voltages. Magnetic fields are generated by electrons flowing in a conductor. EMF are generated by electric lines as well as many common household items.
According to the Environmental Protection Agency, "Much of the research about power lines and potential health effects is inconclusive. Despite more than two decades of research to determine whether elevated EMF exposure, principally to magnetic fields, is related to an increased risk of childhood leukemia, there is still no definitive answer. The general scientific consensus is that, thus far, the evidence available is weak and is not sufficient to establish a definitive cause-effect relationship.

Sega, Inc. was hired by the city to evaluate different transmission line routes to start the public discussion. The consultants divided the project into three different sections and proposed three to four different routes for each section. The initial routes were chosen using these criteria:
After the initial routes were selected, they were presented to the public and the City Council. Written public comment was tabulated to formulate a selection matrix for each route. Columbia Water & Light collected feedback during late 2012/early 2013 to determine the public's most favorable route and the preference for building overhead or underground electric transmission lines.

The intent of the alternatives in the Option B alignment study is to connect the Mill Creek substation with 69 kilovolt lines along the existing 69 kilovolt line route from the Grindstone substation to the Hinkson Creek substation. Option B will place the Mill Creek substation in series with the 69 kilovolt circuit from Grindstone to Hinkson Creek substations. In addition, Option B connects the McBaine substation to the Perche Creek substation via a 161 kilovolt line routed along the southwestern periphery of the city limits as Council suggested. Public feedback was used for the evaluation matrix to determine the preferred routes for Option B.
After the publicly preferred route for Option B was identified, Columbia Water & Light staff looked into the possibility of moving a section of the line to city owned property near the Waste Water Treatment Plant, the city's wetland cells and the Water Treatment Plant. These properties also contain a section of the MKT trail. Option B-2 was presented to the City Council in August 2012 and at a public meeting in November.

Goals: Phoenix was sent to Mars to search for evidence of past or present microbial life and to study geology and climate on the icy arctic plains of the Martian north pole. The lander's robotic arm could dig up to half a meter (20 inches) into the Martian soil and return it for analysis to a special bake-and-sniff oven.
Accomplishments: Phoenix verified the presence of water-ice in the Martian subsurface, which NASA's Mars Odyssey orbiter first detected remotely in 2002. Phoenix's cameras also returned more than 25,000 pictures from sweeping vistas to near the atomic level using the first atomic force microscope ever used outside Earth. The findings advance the goal of studying whether Mars could ever have been favorable to microbial life.

jumbo shrimp, peeled and deveined
1 cup
1 tablespoon
garlic powder
1 1/4 teaspoons
1 teaspoon
ground black pepper
1/2 cup
canola oil
1 cup
tupelo honey
1 tablespoon
grated orange zest
2 tablespoons
fresh lemon juice
1/4 teaspoon
cayenne pepper, or to taste
This recipe is very tasty. Next time we will definitely cut down on the honey, a full cup is way too much. We just drizzled the sauce on the shrimp and it turned out great.
Sounded good but idk, just didn't cooperate with my taste buds I guess.

This was sooooo good! I followed a reviewers advice to reduce the honey sauce by half - perfect amount. I was looking for more of a sweet and spicy sauce but between pure honey and orange zest it was way more sweet and not enough spicy so I doubled the cayenne. Next time I will reduce the orange zest, keep the cayenne amount the same, and add additional spice with beautiful flecks of crushed red pepper.
This shrimp was delicious! I also cut the honey by half and used 1/2 tsp red pepper flakes instead of cayenne. The sauce came out really thick but that's probably because I accidentally let it simmer too long. I didn't really measure the lemon juice, but I should have because it was a little sweet and the right amount of lemon would have made it perfect. I also put the shrimp into the pan with the sauce and completely coated them instead of drizzling the sauce. I would definitely make this again.
Wonderful recipe. Used regular honey and that was the only thing we did different. I made last week and my husband wanted me to make for Valentine's dinner. I told friends how wonderful it was and they all want the recipe. Make this.... the flavor AMAZING~ you won't be disappointed.
Great dinner and easy! I did as many other did and 1/2 the honey and added red pepper flakes. It turned out perfect! I will be making this again.
A fun recipe to try! When my boyfriend came up from downstairs to eat, he said it smelled like something gourmet was cookin' in the kitchen! He was pleased with how it tasted—he enjoyed everything about it! As the person who prepared it, I made a couple changes: I used olive oil in place of canola oil (out of sheer laziness…it was within arms reach…though, it definitely has a higher smoke point!). I used regular honey, though I read "tupelo honey is the standard by which all other honeys are measured" so if you can get your hands on some, you might have an even tastier dinner. :) I agree with the others who halved the honey mixture (which I zapped in the microwave) and I would definitely increase the cayenne if you want any heat. I'd also say you could probably get away with half the cornstarch mixture, but since it's pretty cheap, I suppose it's better to have an excess than run out and have to make a little more. –Yum! Thanks for sharing the recipe!
SOOOO GOOD! I used regular honey and 1/2'd it, and there was still some left over, so just a heads up on that. The seasoning in the cornstarch mixture was perfect, IMO. These were exactly how I'd hoped they'd be...we were very happy w/ dinner tonight! Def be making these again~YUM! Thanks for sharing. :)

In a reprieve from the horror of the most recent terrorist attack, the nation's attentions turned to the man who declared the war on terrorism, George W. Bush.
During Thursday's dedication of his library at Southern Methodist University, nary a word was spoken about the most controversial aspect of his tenure, the Iraq invasion. All living presidents were in attendance and made only generic references to mistakes and regrets familiar to all. Of course Bush famously acknowledges no mistakes or regrets, but rather bequeaths judgment to history and self-doubt to those of lesser conviction.
This observation, though true, is not the whole story of Bush, however. Nearly everyone who has known Bush up closer than a video clip has a different impression of him than what is more popularly accepted. The arrogant, swaggering caricature of the 43rd president was mostly a shield. Bravado of the "bring 'em on" variety was more personal jab than foreign policy statement, though one suspects Bush enjoyed the sound of tiny feet scurrying to keyboards in search of deeper meaning.
Obviously, what a president says and does is fair game for criticism. The way Bush chose to express himself was the way he would be perceived and judged. To act arrogantly is to be arrogant in the public eye. To speak awkwardly is to be awkward.
But in private, Bush was a very different man.
In small groups, he was articulate and confident. When the cameras were off, he was relaxed and natural. Not everyone is made for TV, and this is no criticism. It can be a deficit for public figures, but people who are at one with lights and cameras are sometimes better actors than statesmen.
Everyone is familiar with Bush's history and performance. What I offer is an anecdote or two that I think reveal what the cameras and critics could not. These recollections are simply recorded for the sake of biography in the interest of rounding out a more complete picture of a two-term, transformational president who changed our world in ways that won't be fully understood or judged in our lifetimes.

Comments On Mar 09, 2015:I bought it because it has an 8mm collet, which is hard to find. I have only used the 15mm to pull out a KYB shock seal head bushing. It worked well for this task. I think it will be fine in the future on other bushings / bearings.

Comments On Mar 05, 2014:Be sure to make sure that the right size collet is included in the kit! My 2007 Polaris Ranger XP front wheel bearing is 40mm not included in kit! Rocky Mountain ATV was good enough to send the correct size free of charge. Best parts supplier around and there are plenty!

Comments On Mar 03, 2014:This bearing puller set is legit, makes the removal of wheel bearings a breeze and doesn't damage anything in the process. I would reccomend double checking that the collet your looking for is included in the kit. I had to order another for the back wheel bearings of my Raptor 700. All in all another great product from Tusk.

Body Burden & Health
Even in tiny doses, many chemicals can derail the delicate systems that control our development, health and reproduction. From conception through puberty, children are especially vulnerable.
Exposure Begins in the Womb
Mothers pass a lifetime of chemical accumulation across the placenta during pregnancy, where they become part of a developing infant's first environment. When the fetus is exposed to certain chemicals during key windows of development — while the nervous system is coalescing, for example, or the reproductive organs taking shape — the normal process of development can be disrupted. Scientists now understand that if the timing is "right," these exposures during fetal development can result in birth defects, learning disabilities or infertility later in life.
Studies have found 100s of chemicals in the cordblood of newborn infants.
Once a baby is born, some of the chemicals in a mother's body move from fat stores in the body to the breastmilk she produces for her child. Breastmilk is still the best food for babies because its immune system benefits and contributions to an infant's nutritional and emotional health are unmatched. Yet around the world, this precious resource is compromised.
Children Absorb Chemicals as They Grow
Pound for pound, the fast-growing bodies of children take in more food, water and air than adults. Because young children often explore the world by putting things in their mouth (including their own hands), they also ingest more chemicals as they handle dust, soil and everyday objects. Scientists now understand that children's bodies are most vulnerable to chemicals just as these higher levels of exposure are taking place.
The timing, rather than the dose of chemicals is the critical issue. A child's biological systems are developing rapidly and can be dangerously disrupted by micro-doses of toxins during this period. At the same time, young bodies are not fully able to detoxify. Life-changing harm to the reproductive, neurological or immune systems can result, as can the development of cancer, either in childhood or later in life.
Adult Exposures & Impacts Vary
The levels of pesticides and other chemicals in adults reflects each person's unique accumulation of chemicals: a combination of childhood exposures, workplace contact with chemicals, pesticide residues on the food we eat, products we use in our homes and on our bodies, and the quality of air and water in our communities. An individual's body burden also reflects the strength of his or her ability to clear the body of toxins, a biological function that can vary widely from person to person. Tragically, one of the most effective ways for a woman of childbearing age to clear her body of persistent chemicals is to breastfeed her child.
Little is known about how multiple chemicals may interact in our bodies to increase the risk of disease. Many diseases that have increased dramatically in recent decades are linked to chemical exposure, including diabetes. Because we carry so many chemicals in our bodies, studies tying individual toxins with specific diseases are difficult to conduct - and little is known about how multiple chemicals may interact in our bodies to increase the risk of disease. Even so, evidence is mounting that elevated levels of chemicals in our bodies are linked to higher risk of adult diseases such as reduced fertility (particularly in men), immune suppression, and bladder, breast and other cancers.
Seniors Carry a Lifetime of Chemicals
Just as children are particularly susceptible to chemical harm in the first years of life, our final decades also represent a window of increased vulnerability. The history of exposure that comes with age means our chemical body burden may be at its peak just as our biological systems gradually begin to weaken and slow. In addition, the health effects of low-level exposure often take decades to appear, and odds increase that these diseases will begin to emerge as the years pass. Many diseases and syndromes associated with aging have been linked in scientific studies to pesticides and other chemicals, including prostate, kidney and other cancers, thyroid disorders, hearing loss and Parkinson's disease.http://www.panna.org/children
