OH MY this is good. The recipe is well written, directions are clear and easy to follow. This dish tastes GREAT. We love it. The adults all love the sauce and the kids love the squid. I could do this sauce with shrimp, scallops or chicken. I think a little pepper flakes would add to this dish. Easy, fast, simple, healthy and DELICIOUS. Thank you.
Very good! I got a package of frozen calamari "steaks" from my local Asian market, and cut them into fairly thin strips. I made the marinade as stated (sooooo good!) but cut the cooking oil by two thirds. I also cut the cooking time, as I've had the rule drilled into me that squid should be cooked either for 2 minutes or 2 hours, never between. I went with 2 minutes, and that's really all it needed. It was cooked through, tender, and really strongly flavored (in a good way) with the ginger. I'd be happy to make this again, either with squid steaks or frozen squid rings. Thanks for sharing the recipe!
I sliced the squid into 3/4" strips, marinated for a couple hours, then threaded the strips onto soaked wooden skewers and grilled them quickly over high heat. Everyone loved them. Very flavorful and tender.
This was so simple but yet so great! Everything seemed to work together just perfectly and I couldn't believe how such a simple recipe left the squid so flavourful and tender.
Delicious! We really enjoyed this dish - it is fast, easy and tasty. DS has asked that I make this again, often. I made it according to the recipe, but will probably try the pepper flakes mentioned by another reviewer sometime too.
These were scrumptious, Really quick and easy to make. I just served them with some salad. I was great meal. I did add some pepper flakes for a little kick, just personal taste. I will be making this often. Thank you

Went on 3rd oct - 10th oct 2013 with my 5year old son, was a bit sceptical about going with it being just the two of us but I need not of worried.
The customs at airport opened more kiosks only for people with small children, which helped loads as it was a late flight.
At the hotel, waiters took us straight into restaurant for food and took our bags to our rooms while we ate. The reception staff were fantastic, also the security who showed us to our room.
Rooms were kept spotlessly clean all week, with towels and bed linen having different designs everyday.
Bar staff and waiting staff were absolutely fantastic, they all made my son and his little friend very welcome even making him his own (non alcoholic) cocktail. The Italian restaurant was lovely, there is the Moroccan but we didn't enjoy it as the food was too sweet, its all down to the taste buds of the individual nothing wrong with restaurants. My sons friend celebrated his 3rd birthday there and the hotel made him a birthday cake and the staff came over to sing to him, brilliant.x
The grounds were very well maintained, there is a little herb garden, lime trees and olives growing. There is several ponds which had koi, terrapins and ducks. The hotel had its own cats of all ages and it was a great to know they were all well looked after with regular inoculations. My son was taking meat out to feed them until we knew they were well fed already by the hotel.
My son loved partying with his little friend until the very end every night with the animation team. If your prepared to get involved then you will have so much fun. They were all fantastic and very hard working. There is a children's area with a club and pool, my son only played in the pool twice, he preferred to stay in the main pool, and wow what a pool, a little chilly when first getting in but awesome. There is a indoor pool and a gym area too. We had no problems with getting a sun lounger at the pool, the only thing I could suggest is if you have a favourite spot then get up early and put a towel down.
This whole holiday exceeded my expectations except for my first trip to the market, was a bit too much for me and wish I went in a group, but I did go again with another couple and it was a much better experience.
We done the camel ride and this is the part where I will have a little moan, is that the camels have rope as head collars and you can see where the rope has already cut into their nose and there is open wounds on parts of the nose where the rope is still cutting in. I did tell the rep who just said they cannot check the camels everyday. I did state that as a reputable company they should be making regular checks as the wounds were old and new on every camel, except for the cutie baby camel.
Other than this we had a awesome holiday, all the other holiday makers were fantastic, they made us feel so comfortable as they were all so friendly. I would definitely book again, would love the same holiday makers to be there, If any of you read this THANKYOU ALL for making our holiday special. Donna and Maddison.xxxx

England Beats West Indies, Keeps Cricket World Cup Chance Alive
England beat the West Indies by 18 runs to retain a chance of reaching the Cricket World Cup quarterfinals.
England appeared close to defeat, which would have knocked it out of the tournament, as Andre Russell and Ramnaresh Sarwan put on 72 runs for the 7th wicket. Russell fell for 49 and England took the remaining three wickets for three runs to end the West Indies innings for 225. England had earlier scored 243 runs after 48.4 overs in Chennai, India.
"I gave that one up for dead," England bowler Graeme Swann told Sky Sports. "All of a sudden, we're still there."
England will make the quarterfinals if South Africa, which is leading Group B, defeats Bangladesh in two days, or second place India beats the West Indies a day later. The Caribbean team may qualify even if it is defeated and other results go its way.
"We've been inconsistent, no doubt," England captain Andrew Strauss said in the post-game ceremony. "We have pulled out results when needed, but now we must wait on other results. Hopefully we have done enough to progress."
England won the toss and batted first, but failed to build on its early momentum. Jonathan Trott looked well set on 47 from 43 balls when he was caught by Chris Gayle off to the leg spin of Davendra Bishoo. England then slipped to 151-6 from 121-3.
Earlier, openers Strauss and Matt Prior scored 31 and 21 respectively before falling to Andre Russell, who finished with 4-49. Luke Wright gave England a late boost with 44 before becoming Bishoo's third victim.
Flying Start
Gayle and Darren Sammy gave West Indies a flying start. Gayle got 43 off 21, including four fours in Tim Bresnan's second over, before falling leg-before-wicket to James Tredwell. His replacement Sammy hit 41 in 29 balls as the West Indies appeared to be heading for victory.
The charge was hit when Sammy was bowled by Ravi Bopara, and further wickets left West Indies rocking at 118-5 as the advantage shifted. Kieron Pollard hit 24 before Russell and Sarwan looked to take the game away from England once more. Tredwell, making his first appearance in the tournament, finished 4-48 to lead England's bowlers, while Swann chipped in with 3-36.
South Africa leads the group with eight points after five matches, while India has seven. England finishes with seven points after its six games, while the West Indies and Bangladesh each have six points heading to their final games. The top four teams in each of the two groups will qualify for the quarterfinals. The event ends April 2.

Urban Policy: A Time for a Paradigm Shift
This report reviews the dominant strains of urban land-use and transport policy (urban containment) in metropolitan areas and evaluates its longer-term impact on households and the economy.
Large cities are a relatively recent phenomenon in the world, having proliferated only over the last 200 years. Generally, cities have grown because of the economic opportunities that they have provided for residents. That being the case, the purpose of cities is to facilitate greater affluence. This is best measured by maximizing household discretionary incomes (the income left over after taxes and basic necessities). All things being equal, higher household incomes lead to lower levels of poverty.

How Gratitude Can Grow Out of Grief
This morning I had the opportunity to sit down with a couple from our church whose young nephew died in a car accident a few days ago. He was a Marine visiting family members around the country in-between deployments. He had just called his grandpa during a stop for gas and refreshments. Fifteen minutes later he was involved in an accident with a semi-truck and never regained consciousness.
This dear man and wife from our church were with the family in the hospital when their nephew was ushered into eternity. The grief was thick in the air as we rehearsed all they had experienced. Continue reading
Our Growth in Grace Is a Community Journey
Everyone wants to change and grow, but all too frequently we miss the biblical context for growth—the church. The world often tells us, "It takes a village." God's Word consistently informs us, "It takes a church." We can summarize the biblical message like this: Our Growth in Grace Is a Community Journey. Do you want to grow in grace? The Bible teaches that it happens in the Body of Christ. Continue reading

Biblical Mentoring for Teenagers
"Mentoring" is a buzzword in our current culture. A quick google search on the words "mentoring teenagers" yields dozens of articles, blogs, organizations, and curricula to mentor teens in both the secular and Christian realms.
Biblical mentoring sets itself apart from many other mentoring strategies because it is not a program or a formalized ministry. Continue reading
Freedom from Regret
Irreversible decisions are the hardest to live with. You know you've done wrong, but it is too late to undo it. Now you must live with the consequences, whatever they may be. But how? Do you beat yourself up forever? Do you live in a state of habitual sullenness? Do you become bitter toward others or God? The pain of regret and the constant nagging of a conscience that knows you have sinned and been foolish have the potential of crippling you forever. Is this how it must be, or is there a better way? Continue reading
Getting Up after a Fall
Sinful choices can become a slippery slope too. One sinful choice may slide into another, reminiscent of Psalm 1:1; then the Christian may face a problem she helped create: a marital separation, an addiction, a lost job, anxiety, depression, bitterness. Her problem might cause enough angst to bring her to your counseling office, looking for relief. But relief isn't the real answer is it? Relief is among the world's counterfeits for mankind's greatest and truest need—the gospel. Continue reading

BRUNSWICK, Ga. (AP) - A 15-year-old faces 10 years in prison for
involuntary manslaughter in the December 2007 fatal shooting of his
stepfather in Glynn County.
Brandon Betts was to be tried as an adult for murder this week in the death of 37-year-old Louis Hall Jr., but pled guilty to the lesser charge on Monday.
Betts, who also pled guilty to possession of a firearm in the
commission of a crime, also must undergo mental health counseling
in prison.
Hall had reprimanded Betts for being disrespectful to adults at
their mobile home north of Brunswick.
Betts went inside, came out with his stepfather's .22-caliber rifle and shot him in the chest. He told investigators it was an accident.

Improving Network Security
Data gained from intrusion detection can be used to improve network security by preventing future attacks and help determine how to respond to security incidents.
IDS add another line of defense behind firewalls and antivirus software. Future attacks can be prevented when IDS provides detection and record logs.
Many IDS even go a step beyond transmitting alarms and respond to security incidents. Thus, the correct options are a and d.
Route traffic more efficiently is not one of the goals of IDS. Thus, the choice 'b' is incorrect.
Shield IP addresses on the network can be performed by using proxies, but not by data gained from IDS. Thus, the choice 'c' is incorrect.

Unplugged: Flea comes clean on Super Bowl halftime
The first rule of Super Bowl halftime is: you do not talk about Super Bowl halftime.
Props to Flea for telling it like it is.
In response to questions -- from Living Color's Vernon Reid and Axl Rose, among others -- about the Red Hot Chili Peppers not being plugged in during the Super Bowl halftime, the bassist came clean, detailing what people have long suspected: it's not a legit performance.
Only the vocals were live when the Peppers came on to jam with Bruno Mars on "Give It Away." The rest of the sound was recorded earlier in the week. And that's how it always is, because you can't perfect concert sound in the middle of a football game.
Flea makes a good case for why the Chili Peppers faked it, saying they wouldn't do it normally but "when this Super Bowl gig concept came up, there was a lot of confusion amongst us as whether or not we should do it, but we eventually decided, it was a surreal-like, once in a life time crazy thing to do and we would just have fun and do it."
The Chili Peppers are a proven quantity. No one questions whether they can actually play -- same for the Stones, McCartney, The Who, etc. -- so there was no good reason for them to turn down the biggest music showcase in the world.
A few years ago, I asked Nils Lofgren of the E Street Band about playing live at the Super Bowl and he danced around the issue, being a good soldier but kind of copping to it: "Yeah, that's a tough one. I was playing live the whole time. We rehearsed for days and kind of like... regularly ... it's a part of that TV thing. And this is the most extraordinary TV show I ever did. There were like 10 producers, all these huddles with management. As best as I can see, what I played live is what I heard on TV. I can't promise it wasn't something I played two days earlier, but it sure didn't look like it to me. That's one of the nice things about being in a band - I'm not the bandleader, so while all the mangers and people are trying to grab Bruce in a side room and have meetings, I just keep doing what I'm doing unless I'm asked to do something different."
Now, Flea has gone on the record and we can all get past this. The Super Bowl halftime is fixed. If you want live, you have to go to the show and, um, hope that it's all real there.

The development of four separate, prototype expert systems to aid in software engineering management is described. Given the values for certain metrics, these systems provide interpretations which explain any abnormal patterns of these values during the development of a software project. The four expert systems which solve the same problem, were built using two different approaches to knowledge acquisition, a bottom-up approach and a top-down approach and two different expert system methods, rule-based deduction and frame-based abduction. In a comparison to see which methods might better suit the needs of this field, it was found that the bottom-up approach led to better results that did the top-down approach, and the rule-based deduction systems using simple rules provided more complete and correct solutions than did the frame-based abduction systems

A second-choice (I think) alternative would be to have each navigation tab linked to a category, and top the index of each category with a short article.
I am not programmer. Which alternative above is going to be simpler and better? Where, more specifically than "read the codex," would I look to find information that will help me?

If nothing else, at least the race for the Republican nomination for Potter County sheriff got a little less muddy Thursday.
Former Chief Deputy Ken Farren, who resigned in June as a federal and state investigation swirled around the sheriff's department, was found not guilty on two misdemeanor charges of abuse of official capacity.
It had been alleged that Farren had jail inmates perform work on his property, but the verdict now clears the way for Farren to continue his campaign for sheriff without a legal cloud hanging over his head.
How much damage the charges did to Farren's reputation will be determined at the ballot box March 4. However, the justice system determined that Farren was not guilty of the charges against him, and that decision must be respected.
Farren's qualifications for the job - he is a longtime law enforcement officer who was a member of the Amarillo Police Department before moving to the sheriff's department - should be the basis of his campaign.
Farren's day in court is over, but that hardly removes the legal dramatics in the sheriff's race.
Current Sheriff Mike Shumate also is running in the GOP primary, but faces much more serious charges than Farren.
Shumate faces three felony charges, including bribery, and will not be able to answer the allegations in court until June, well past the primary date.
Shumate faces an uphill public relations battle in trying to run for office while facing a possible prison term.
Farren's win in court definitely helps his campaign, just as any type of guilty verdict would have doomed his chances.
As for voters, the verdict removes some degree of the controversy surrounding the GOP field as now only one of the five candidates stands accused of either a serious crime or illegal act.
Voters can formulate their own opinion of the former chief deputy, but what cannot and should not be overlooked is that Farren answered the charges against him, and was found not guilty.
The Republican side of the sheriff's race got cleaned up a tad, and voters should be thankful.

Slacker Relaunches Simpler Service to Appeal to More People
By Alex Pham, Los Angeles
Above: Slacker chief executive Jim Cady
Slacker Inc., which counts more than half-a-million paying subscribers, on Wednesday announced an overhaul of the digital music service that is designed to appeal to mainstream users as opposed to the music aficionados.
The new Slacker has more visual elements and adds more personalized recommendations than the prior version in order to appear friendlier to new users who may not know exactly what they want to listen to or how to navigate its prodigious catalog of music, news, comedy and sports programming, Slacker chief executive Jim Cady.
"We felt it was time to move from early adopters to mainstream listeners," Cady said.
Slacker launched its music streaming service five years ago primarily as a free Internet radio service organized around genres programmed by music experts. Over the years, it added a $3.99-a-month ad-free subscription radio tier as well as a $9.99-a-month on-demand music service similar to Rhapsody or Spotify.
But the San Diego music service struggled with the same problem all other music services have run into -- how to get enough people to pay monthly fees in order to create a profitable business. Of the four million listeners who tune into Slacker every month, about 12.5% pay for the service. Of Spotify's 20 million users, five million, or 25%, spring for a premium version of the service.
Cady would not say whether Slacker is profitable, but hinted that his company was not profusely bleeding cash. The privately held company has also been doubling its revenue and subscribers each year for the past two years, Cady noted. Still, its four million listeners are a fraction of the 65.6 million listeners currently dialing into Pandora's Internet radio service each month.
In order to significantly grow, Slacker needs more paying users. The redesign of the service is aimed at doing just that, by appealing to a broader, more casual demographic.
Slacker is also expanding its revenue streams, Cady said, adding a sponsorship model to its site. As an example, Slacker this Thursday and Friday will open up its premium service to all users for free, with the costs subsidized by a sponsorship from Cars.com. Cady said there will be other opportunities to pair sponsors with specific artists on Slacker.

Candy Chang's 'Before I Die...' comes to Milwaukee
There is something about a death that can be focusing. For New Orleans artist Candy Chang, the loss of a dear friend, initially lead to a long period of grief and depression that eventually turned to gratitude and clarity.
She wanted to know what was important, to her and to those in her around her. So the artist, known for her placemaking projects and urban planning ideas, painted the side of an abandoned building with chalkboard paint and stenciled the words, "Before I die I want to..." onto it. »Read Full Blog Post(1)

Mystery surrounds the circumstances of a fatal plane crash in
northern NSW which killed two men after the aircraft
plummeted to the ground about 80km off-course.
The aircraft burst into flames when it crashed into a paddock
off the Bruxner Highway in South Gundurimba, south of
Lismore, at 10.15am (AEDT) today.
Two men, believed to be a 47-year-old and a 40-year-old from
the Gold Coast, died at the scene.
The crash sparked a grass fire and debris was strewn around
the wreckage.
"There is a large debris field of about 50 metres in length,"
a Fire and Rescue NSW spokesman told AAP.
It is believed the Socata Trinidad took off from Gold Coast
Airport about 9.30am (AEDT) and was heading south to
Murwillumbah Airport.
A focus of the investigation will be how the plane ended up
in South Gundurimba, about 80km south of Murwillumbah.
Police from Richmond Local Area Command, crime scene
officers, as well investigators from the Australian Transport
Safety Bureau, remained at the scene on Friday evening.
The cause of the crash was not yet known, but one witness
told the Seven Network the plane banked hard left, then "fell
like a rock" to the ground.

What about the rest of us? Folks want something to protest about? This is the issue to march about – something people of all races can come together about. I personally think the insurance industry got in bed with our elected officials, and guess who is going to come out on top? It surely won't be those of us who are being affected by it, or the health-care industry.
Take that to Washington and march about it.

Are we harming the continuation of our species through application of modern medicine, as well as social programs?
By taking away elements of natural selection, how harmful, if you see any harm at all, do you think this practice will be to the future of our kind?
The general fear I would recognize is that we are rewarding our weak or unbenificial qualities to continue to pass to future generations at a higher rate. This makes our intelligence much more important to sustain us, the problem from there is that we are therefore not rewarding the more intelligent of our species with reproducing at a higher rate.
On the other hand, empathy is important for the social structure that we rely on, and with that comes said help to the weak and allowance that they can pass on their genes. We are extremely dependant on our group mentality and cannot have that without protecting the members of the group physically, as well as emotionally or else run the risk of the group parting ways and making smaller weaker groups that are less likely to succeed.
Where do you stand?

The Publicity Office, Joan Marcus, Associated Press
NEW YORK — The producers of the Tony Award telecast clearly believe that more is more.
Sunday night's three-hour telecast from the Beacon Theater is packed with so many stars and performances — a record 16 musical numbers will feature moments from musicals, plays and revivals — that cynics might call it kitchen sink programming.
"Every year we've added more and more entertainment," said Charlotte St. Martin, the executive director of The Broadway League, which jointly presents the Tonys with the American Theatre Wing. "You can feel the energy in the room when they're rehearsing."
The explosion of performances is an attempt to showcase as much on Broadway as possible and also an implicit admission that there's no clear, dying-to-see-it front-running musical like last year's juggernaut, "The Book of Mormon."
In fact, the producers have even invited the cast of "The Book of Mormon" to perform again this year. There also will be cameos by a little orphan Annie and Mary Poppins. And, to top it all off, one performance won't even be nearby — the song from "Hairspray" will be performed from a cruise ship in the Caribbean Sea.
It promises to be a hectic night. During a morning rehearsal, winners were warned that they only had 90 seconds from the time their name was called to get on stage and give their speech before loud music will drown them out.
"It's got that energy of any production," said Heather A. Hitchens, the executive director of the American Theatre Wing. "The excitement and the anxiety hand in hand — that's what makes it work."
Last year's Tonys was seen by 6.9 million viewers, roughly the same number as the year before. But the program, hosted by Neil Patrick Harris, posted a 9 percent year-to-year gain in the ratings for the 18-to-49 demographic.
The popular Harris is back again this year with several songs and skits. He'll be competing Sunday against the "Mad Men" season finale, but this time no NBA postseason games.
He'll also been tasked with trying to MC between performances from the four best musical nominees — "Leap of Faith," ''Newsies," ''Nice Work If You Can Get It" and "Once." To make time, most technical awards will be handed out during the commercial breaks.
The four musical revival nominees also get a turn on stage, with performances from "Evita," ''Follies," ''The Gershwins' Porgy and Bess" and "Jesus Christ Superstar." There will even be time carved out for the cast of "Godspell" and "Ghost The Musical" — two shows not up for best musical Tony.
As if that wasn't enough, look out for performances from the Tony-nominated plays "End of the Rainbow," ''One Man, Two Guvnors" and "Peter and the Starcatcher." There also are video snippets from other plays.
"With plays being such an important part of Broadway, we're excited that we're finding new ways to bring them to the world out there," said St. Martin. "The magic of a play is hard to show on a television screen. We're hoping this helps."
Not everyone can perform, although it may seem like it. One show not invited is "Spider-Man: Turn Off the Dark," whose producers decided tongue-in-cheek to hold a special matinee performance on Sunday and offer free tickets to anyone with the first name Tony, Anthony, Antoinette, Toni, Antonio or Antonia. Not to be outdone, the telecast will have at least one Spider-Man joke.
Producers of the telecast are counting on some intriguing matchups to keep interest high: Which play will win from a very strong category? Will James Corden from "One Man, Two Guvnors" take the best drama leading man award from the favorite, Philip Seymour Hoffman in "Death of a Salesman"? Who will emerge with the award in the best actress in a drama race — Nina Arianda, Tracie Bennett, Stockard Channing, Linda Lavin or Cynthia Nixon?

A) All living things contain carbon. Most of this carbon is
stable carbon-12. However, a small percentage will be carbon-14, a
radioactive isotope of carbon that decays with time. As living
things eat and breath, carbon is constantly recycled and therefore
the percentage of carbon-14 remains constant. It's not until death
that the percentage of carbon-14 will begin to diminish from decay.
Because radioactive decay is a first-order process, the integrated
rate law for a first-order reaction can be rewritten as
fraction remaining: 0.5 (t /)
where t is the time elapsed and is the half-life. The half-life of C-14 is 5730 years.
A fossil was analyzed and determined to have a carbon-14 level that is 50.0 that of living organisms. How old is the fossil?
B) A patient is given 5.0×10−2 of technetium-99 , a radioactive isotope with a half-life of about 6.0 hours. How long until the radioactive isotope decays to 6.2×10−3 ? (Assume no excretion of the nuclide from the body.)
C) A layer of peat beneath the glacial sediments of the last ice age has a carbon-14/carbon-12 ratio that is23.6% of that found in living organisms. How long ago was this ice age?
D) A sample of has an initial decay rate of5.92×104 . How long will it take for the decay rate to fall to 57 ? ( has a half-life of 3.042 days.)

Grizzly Bear shows growth, in fan numbers and song repertoire
Standing on the stage of the Pabst Theater Tuesday before a single note was played, Ed Droste from Brooklyn band Grizzly Bear could see how far its fan base had come. When the band first played the Pabst, he said, tickets were available for only the lower level. On Tuesday, both the lower level and the lower balcony were filled, and there were even some folks up at the tippy top.
That's not surprising. After coalescing its lovely sound - most distinguished by angelic voices - around a gorgeous single, 2009's "Two Weeks" from breakthrough album "Veckatimest," Grizzly Bear came roaring back with last year's splendid "Shields," its grandest accomplishment to date and one of 2012's finer albums. »Read Full Article

Puppet horses rise above human folly in 'War Horse'
Early in "War Horse," in town at the Marcus Center through Sunday, a wild foal is penned within a paddock and sold.
It's an obvious if effective foreshadowing of what's to come, in which this foal grows into a spirited thoroughbred named Joey — before repeating his initial confinement, first as a haltered packhorse and then within the barbed wire crisscrossing No Man's Land, in the killing fields of World War I. »Read Full Article(5)

'Seed Pod' invades Frank Lloyd Wright in Madison
Madison — Brenda Baker's big, twiggy "Seed Pod" has been nestled into the pristine geometry of Frank Lloyd Wright's Monona Terrace since October. It's huge — about 71/2 feet tall and 10 feet wide — and its unruly ovoid form dominates the concrete esplanade, bristling with a defiantly organic energy.
Placed with an almost comical symmetry in the center of the walkway, perfectly aligned with both Monona Terrace's rooftop fountain and the Capitol dome in Madison, it conjures up strangely opposite impressions. On the one hand, it's like a giant tumbleweed, blown in by a freak storm. At the same time, I can't escape the way it echoes an alien spacecraft (especially with Wright's retro-futuristic building as a backdrop), like the one that landed on the National Mall in "The Day the Earth Stood Still." »Read Full Article

What beliefs do Chinese learners hold about language learning? What is the effect of these beliefs on their autonomous learning? These are the two questions that this study aims to address. I employed naturalistic inquiry (Lincoln & Guba, 1985) to investigate five Chinese ESL learners' beliefs about language learning and their learning behaviour. A number of instruments (interviews, classroom observations and stimulated recall, learning logs) were used to collect triangulated data over a 12-week period. Following standard procedures of qualitative data analysis, I identified five categories of learners' beliefs. The results revealed that the beliefs that the learners held were context-specific, reflecting their learning experiences. Some of them were conducive to learning autonomy while others were not. The beliefs influenced the level of the learners' autonomy. The study suggests that educators should take into account learners' beliefs when promoting autonomous learning.

This recipe is great! There is another recipe on this site that is almost identcal with the exception that this one uses 1/3 the liquid pectin the other does and that can be quire a savings! Another thing that I tried was making this with green bell peppers instead of the orange. The orange can be very expensive and I found that while I was heating this up all I had to do was add a few drops of yellow and red food coloring and it came out a beautiful orange! Thank you for a great recipe!
Awesome Recipe, and very easy!

An instant hit with my family! Great on crackers with cheese, or even in a sandwich. I shared some with my extended relatives, and they are constantly asking for more! A great way to use up the extra peppers at the end of the growing season.
I was looking for a recipe to use the last habaneros from our garden and I am so grateful I found this one. The preparation and cook time were on the dot. I was able to get 8 jars in one batch and I had to scrape the jelly from the pan and taste it on crackers. It is hot but very yummy and I can barely wait for it to settle. Thanks for posting and I am sure will continue to enjoy it over the years.
2 years in a row this is the best Hot Jelly recipe I have made (tried others for Jalapeneno etc.) I only used 5 habeneros, but will up it to 7-8 on the next batch. MUCH easier than most recipes out there, it turns a beautiful red color if you substitute red peppers for yellow.
Even though I am pregnant and spicy food gives me heartburn, I can't stop eating this jelly with some cream cheese on Wheat Thins. It's divine for all of us spicy food lovers!

Do you leisurely eat your meals or are you one of those people that kind of whoofs your meals down standing up and then you barely remember eating and are hungry shortly after?
I suggest if you fall into the latter category, that you slow it down, because eating too quickly can cause you to overeat. �Why? �Because it takes 20 minutes for your brain to register that you're full. �If you're eating too fast, you'll most likely end up way over-stuffed well before your brain can even register that you're stuffed to capacity.
Here's what to do: ��
1. �BE MINDFUL. �Taste the food. �Chew slowly. �Enjoy the food. �Be aware of flavors and textures.
2. �PUT YOUR FORK DOWN. �Put your fork down every few bites. �It is not a shovel. �Chew and fully swallow between bites.
3. �MAKE CONVERSATION. �If you're eating with other people, be sure to engage in the conversation to slow down your eating pace because no one wants to talk to someone with a mouthful of food.
And Here's What NOT to do:
1. �DO NOT EAT IN FRONT OF THE TV. �Mindless, unconscious eating, and you WILL overeat.
2. �DO NOT EAT WHILE IN FRONT OF YOUR COMPUTER ANSWERING EMAILS, SURFING THE WEB, ETC. �Once again, mindless, unconscious eating, and you WILL overeat.

FAIRBANKS - Fairbanks city Mayor Terry Strle will seek re-election in October.
The Fairbanks Daily News-Miner reports Strle filed a letter of intent with the Alaska Public Offices Commission last week, so she can start raising money.
Strle says the city has accomplished a lot in three years, but there's more work to do.
City councilman Bernard Gaywood is the only other candidate who has filed a letter of intent to run for office.
Councilman John Eberhart has said he does not plan to seek re-election.

Many Factors Caused the Big-Band Era to Fade Away
In his March 18 op-ed "How the Taxman Cleared the Dance Floor," Eric Felten takes just one of the many reasons the big-band era ended and made it seem as if it was the only reason. There were a whole host of reasons for the decline of the big bands, and the cabaret tax played, at best, a minor part. Other factors that contributed to the end of the big bands as a significant force in popular music include, in no particular order:
• The "recording ban" of 1942-1944 (not a ban, really, but the musicians' union striking against the record companies), which kept big bands from recording. Singers didn't belong to the musicians' union, so they kept making records.
• The popularity of Frank Sinatra and other singing stars who emerged in his wake.
• The loss of many big-band musicians to the war-time military.
• Gasoline and rubber rationing during the war, which limited touring by big bands.
• The formation of BMI in 1940, which allowed songwriters in previously marginalized styles, such as rhythm and blues (R&B) and country music, to earn a living as songwriters for the first time, thus helping to spur a growth in the popularity of those styles.
• The migration of many Southerners, both white and black, to large Northern and Western cities to work in defense-related industries. Many of these Southerners favored R&B and country over the big bands.
• The rise of independent record companies recording R&B and country, and the emergence of new radio stations that played these records to cater to the transplanted Southerners.
Mr. Felten seems to have begun with a political point he wanted to make and then omitted facts that didn't fit his argument.

I've noticed several birds flying around inside my grocery store. They're always there so I'm guessing that they've nested in the rafters and are too high for the employees to remove. Same thing at Costco. I just try not to think about the fact that they've got to shit somewhere at some point and hopefully it wasn't on the produce I just bought.
Is this a normal thing?

The Rise of Rwanda's Women
Rebuilding and Reuniting a Nation
Twenty years ago, in 100 days of slaughter between April and July 1994, an estimated one million Rwandan men, women, and children were killed by their fellow citizens. It was one of the worst genocides in history, and its effects still ripple through Rwanda, central and eastern Africa, and the world at large.
It would be obscene to say that such a catastrophe has had even the thinnest silver lining. But it did create a natural -- or unnatural -- experiment, as the country's social, economic, and political institutions were wiped out by the genocide. And in important respects, the reconstructed Rwanda that emerged over the next two decades is a dramatically different country.
One major improvement has come in the leadership of Rwandan women, who have made history with their newly vital role in politics and civil society. No longer confined to positions of influence in the home, they have become a force from the smallest village council to the highest echelons of national government. Understanding how and why such a transformation occurred offers not just an opportunity to celebrate their accomplishments. It also provides lessons for other countries struggling to overcome histories of patriarchy and oppression.
Rwanda's catastrophe was the nadir of decades of violence and prejudice. People in the area had traditionally drawn distinctions among themselves based on socioeconomic status and occupation, but Belgian colonists treated the differences as immutable ethnic characteristics and issued national identification cards accordingly. A perilous imbalance of opportunity

Loss of Lives in Clinical Trials...
Keep the Opportunities, Lose the Opportunists
From our August issue: Clinical-Style Validation,...
Researchers Now Have a Myriad of...
The Institute for Medical Microbiology of the University Medical Center in Goettingen, Germany (Universitätsmedizin Göttingen, or UMG), has installed Bruker Daltonics' MALDI Biotyper as their molecular microbial identification system.
The MALDI Biotyper library of yeasts strains provides for a more thorough characterization of these microorganisms. The identification of yeasts and fungi on the species level is one of the most challenging tasks of many microbiology laboratories. It has been shown in several peer-reviewed publications that the MALDI Biotyper based molecular fingerprint of yeasts provides significant differentiation on the species level. Currently more than 40 different Candida species can be reliably identified when using the MALDI Biotyper reference library.
"After evaluating the currently commercially available MALDI TOF based microorganisms identification systems, it was clear to us that the MALDI Biotyper will improve and support our microbiology work due to its performance in identifying difficult bacteria, yeasts, and fungi samples," says Michael Weig of UMG.
"Deciding to go with Bruker's high-end autoflex TOF/TOF instrument in addition allows us to identify new proteins as part of complex microorganisms' cell walls and their biological functions in respective molecular processes. We will also work on a better understanding of some resistance mechanisms of yeasts and fungi, which are not yet fully understood. In addition, we plan to evaluate how to combine Bruker's standardized fungi workflow with current EUCAST recommendations for standardized fungi antibiogram generation."
The UMG Institute for Medical Microbiology is responsible for research, teaching, and diagnosis of bacteriological, mycological, and parasitological infectious diseases. Moreover the institute is also the German National Reference Centre for systemic mycosis and runs hundreds of yeasts and fungi samples per year.
Bruker's dedicated MALDI Biotyper solution enables molecular identification, taxonomical classification, or dereplication of microorganisms like bacteria, yeasts, and fungi. Classification and identification of microorganisms is achieved reliably and fast using proteomic fingerprinting with high-throughput MALDI-TOF mass spectrometry. Applications include clinical routine microbial identification, environmental and pharmaceutical analysis, taxonomical research, food and consumer product processing and quality control, as well as marine microbiology.
