Poem Title:
Pale, at its ghastly noon, Pauses above the death-still wood--the moon; The night-sprite, sighing, through the dim air stirs; The clouds descend in rain; Mourning, the wan stars wane, Flickering like dying lamps in sepulchres! Haggard as spectres--vision-like and dumb, Dark with the pomp of death, and moving slow, Towards that sad lair the pale procession come Where the grave closes on the night below. With dim, deep-sunken eye, Crutched on his staff, who trembles tottering by? As wrung from out the shattered heart, one groan Breaks the deep hush alone! Crushed by the iron fate, he seems to gather All life's last strength to stagger to the bier, And hearken--Do these cold lips murmur "Father?" The sharp rain, drizzling through that place of fear, Pierces the bones gnawed fleshless by despair, And the heart's horror stirs the silver hair. Fresh bleed the fiery wounds Through all that agonizing heart undone-- Still on the voiceless lips "my Father" sounds, And still the childless Father murmurs "Son!" Ice-cold--ice-cold, in that white shroud he lies-- Thy sweet and golden dreams all vanished there-- The sweet and golden name of "Father" dies Into thy curse,--ice-cold--ice-cold--he lies! Dead, what thy life's delight and Eden were! Mild, as when, fresh from the arms of Aurora, While the air like Elysium is smiling above, Steeped in rose-breathing odors, the darling of Flora Wantons over the blooms on his winglets of love. So gay, o'er the meads, went his footsteps in bliss, The silver wave mirrored the smile of his face; Delight, like a flame, kindled up at his kiss, And the heart of the maid was the prey of his chase. Boldly he sprang to the strife of the world, As a deer to the mountain-top carelessly springs; As an eagle whose plumes to the sun are unfurled, Swept his hope round the heaven on its limitless wings. Proud as a war-horse that chafes at the rein, That, kingly, exults in the storm of the brave; That throws to the wind the wild stream of its mane, Strode he forth by the prince and the slave! Life like a spring day, serene and divine, In the star of the morning went by as a trance; His murmurs he drowned in the gold of the wine, And his sorrows were borne on the wave of the dance. Worlds lay concealed in the hopes of his youth!-- When once he shall ripen to manhood and fame! Fond father exult!--In the germs of his youth What harvests are destined for manhood and fame! Not to be was that manhood!--The death-bell is knelling, The hinge of the death-vault creaks harsh on the ears-- How dismal, O Death, is the place of thy dwelling! Not to be was that manhood!--Flow on, bitter tears! Go, beloved, thy path to the sun, Rise, world upon world, with the perfect to rest; Go--quaff the delight which thy spirit has won, And escape from our grief in the Halls of the Blest. Again (in that thought what a healing is found!) To meet in the Eden to which thou art fled!-- Hark, the coffin sinks down with a dull, sullen sound, And the ropes rattle over the sleep of the dead. And we cling to each other!--O Grave, he is thine! The eye tells the woe that is mute to the ears-- And we dare to resent what we grudge to resign, Till the heart's sinful murmur is choked in its tears. Pale at its ghastly noon, Pauses above the death-still wood--the moon! The night-sprite, sighing, through the dim air stirs: The clouds descend in rain; Mourning, the wan stars wane, Flickering like dying lamps in sepulchres. The dull clods swell into the sullen mound; Earth, one look yet upon the prey we gave! The grave locks up the treasure it has found; Higher and higher swells the sullen mound-- Never gives back the grave!

Report: Giants aren't only team monitoring Brian Wilson
Baggs on Wilson: 'I was told he looked very good'
Brian Wilson threw a bullpen session for the Giants at USF on Monday and displayed "terrific stuff." (USA TODAY IMAGES)
It's been 15 months since Brian Wilson last appeared in an MLB game, but the 31-year-old reliever who is working his way back from his second Tommy John surgery is drawing interest from more than just the Giants.
Wilson is set to throw a bullpen session Thursday in Los Angeles and the Philadelphia Phillies are one of multiple teams expected to be in attendance, according to an MLB.com blog report.
On Monday, the former Giant threw at USF with San Francisco's bullpen catcher Billy Hayes receiving and pitching coach Dave Righetti standing in the batter's box. Sources indicated to CSNBayArea.com that Wilson boasted "terrific stuff."
[RELATED: Wilson throws for Righetti, Hayes at USF]
Wilson's 3.21 career ERA and 171 career saves represent an attractive addition to a contending team looking for bullpen help down the stretch. While no other clubs were specifically mentioned in the report, the Detroit Tigers have been actively looking to add to their 'pen. They were reportedly interested in Giants relievers Sergio Romo and Javier Lopez, as well as pursuing Tim Lincecum as a relief pitcher.
[REWIND: Report: Lincecum drawing interest as reliever]
Wilson has pitched for San Francisco for the entirety of his seven-year career, but his relationship with the team appeared to sour after the Giants non-tendered him last winter. The club would have been forced to guarantee him a minimum of $6.8 million through arbitration if they had tendered him a contract, and now it is unclear where Wilson's preferences lie.

District and School Physical Education Policies: Implications for Physical Education and Recess Time

The relationship between physical education (PE) policies and children's PE and recess time is not well understood.
The purpose of this study is to assess the association of district and school PE policies, the PE environment, and PE and recess time.
Key informants in 65 schools from 9 states completed instruments assessing district and school PE policies, the school PE environment, and time in PE and recess.
Few significant associations were found between PE policies and PE or recess minutes; no policies were associated with both. A number of PE environmental variables were associated with both policies and time in PE and recess.
PE policies, their implementation, and PE environmental variables can have important implications for recess time. Some school PE environment measures designed to improve PE may result in PE time limitations. Deficiencies in PE and recess time are not likely to be effectively addressed through policy adoption alone.

This was good, but I would reccomend using fish stock, or chicken stock to increase the flavour. Thanx!
I chose this for its ease and quickness. Next time I will use less wine, fish stock, and parsley....and add as much as 1 Tbl.of Dijon mustard. My DH and I enjoyed it, there wasn't a shrimp to be found.

By car (incl. parking), Venice
7 Reviews
7 Reviews
Parking car in Venice might be a huge problem, so many visitors arriving here in cars and very limited space. One can wait more then one hour for free parking place in Park S. Andrea, as I did, and finaly it costs me 16,52 euros for 7 hours. The alternative is the Garage San Marco which charge you 24 euros per day.
The best solution is to park your car in Mestre, for free if possible, and get to Venice by the public transportation.
No cars are allowed in Venice proper (the islands); thus, if you drive to Venice, you have to park in certain areas. The only place on the islands themselves that you can park is at Piazzale Roma, which is at the end of the causeway coming from the mainland.
See http://www.urbislimen.net/eng/index.html for an online parking reservation site associated with the City of Venice. Through this site, you will find that parking at Piazzale Roma is now 21 euro/day and parking in Mestre (on the mainland) is 10 euro/day.
Of course, once you are in Piazzale Roma, you can immediately start walking in Venice. If you are in Mestre, you have to catch a train or bus over the causeway into Venice - this will add to the cost and time. I would guess that for one person, the train fare both ways would not be nearly up to the 11 euro difference...but the more people you have, the less sense it makes to park in Mestre, since train/bus tickets are per person, and the parking rate in Piazzale Roma is per car. Well, I am saying that it doesn't make sense to kill yourself trying to save a couple of euro...see http://www.trenitalia.com/en/index.html for the train schedules and fares from "Venezia Mestre" (hopefully the mainland parking is close to the station), and "Venezia Santa Lucia" (on the islands, where you want to go).
Also see http://www.comune.venezia.it/flex/cm/pages/ServeBLOB.php/L/EN/IDPagina/119 which is the City's official website that lists all sorts of parking alternatives...
Website: http://www.comune.venezia.it/flex/cm/pages/ServeBLOB.php/L/EN/IDPagina/119Related to:
If you are arriving in Venice by car in the summer it would be advisable to make parking reservations ahead. You can make the reservations on-line. We park at the Piazzale Roma Garage and find it very easy to find and the garage has good access to the Vaporetti station.
As you enter Venice over the bridge the parking garage, a many storied building is directly to your right. The long line on the right can be avoided by reserving your parking ahead. The entrance for reserved parking is the short line on the left.
Website: http://firstname.lastname@example.com to:
We booked this on the web. Staff were helpful and spoke good English. We left the keys with the car, car was protected and at Euros 20 for 12 hours in the centre of Venice we considered this good value. Would definitely recommend. It is only a couple of minutes away from the vaporetto stop for the Grand Canal
We have driven to Venice for a couple of our visits, and found that it is extremely easy to just park at Marco Polo airport. From there, you can either take a water taxi directly to your hotel or take the water bus to stops throughout Venice.
The majority of visitors to Venice all arrive by car. Quiet a problem since the "streets" of Venice are all waterways. Hence after you have crossed the bridge from the Italian mainland in Mestre it is time to leave your car - on offer are a number of parking garages and parking areas to the right (after crossing the bridge) where you can leave your car. Piazza Roma is within walking distance, and from here one can explore Venice on foot, by water taxi or gondola.
I would really reconsider renting a car. You will spend more time, energy, and money dealing with the logistics of "the car" than you will enjoying Italy.
I have been to Venice then onto Rome 7 times and each time I have gone a different route (usually through Tuscany, using buses) and used different means of transportation.
The best way I've found to go straight to Rome from Venice, is to take an overnight train from Venice, that way you save having to pay for a hotel room that night.
There were sometimes "strikes" that halted transportation for a few hours, but they are well announced ahead of time, and easy to plan around.
There was a taxi strike the morning we needed to go to the airport, but our desk clerk drove us for the same amount a taxi would have cost. The desk clerk LOVED taxi strikes!

Nevermind: Starwood Pulls Unfinished Corus Condos Off the Market
A Starwood Capital-FDIC partnership halted its offering of Glencoe Lofts, a luxury California condo project it inherited from the failed Corus Bank. New plan? Finish the complex and resell the units, industry newsletter Real Estate Alert reports.
The strategy, the publication points out, is bad news for investors hoping that Corus' portfolio of distressed condo and apartment projects would yield bargain real estate. And while avoiding a fire sale might be a good deal for Starwood, it is risky should the market weaken even further.
Still, "real estate is never worth less than when it's half built," Dan Walsh, executive vice president and managing director of KeyBank Real Estate Capital, tells Developments.
Now, about $1 million worth of work reportedly remains on the project in scenic Marina Del Ray. But, once finished, buyers might be tempted, given it is within walking distance of Venice Beach, boasts 11-foot ceilings and near-private elevators.
These lofts were financed by a $39.2 million construction loan Corus wrote in 2005 for a local developer, according to the Alert. Back during the peak- and before the condo market collapsed – some of the 100 units were expected to command prices topping $1 million.
As we've reported, Starwood was part of a team that last year made a $2.77 billion purchase of construction loans made by Corus before regulators shut the bank down in September. The deal valued the assets at 60 cents on the dollar – much more than was predicted, according to our colleagues at Deal Journal.
Starwood has indicated it isn't planning to dump its property back on the market. "In many cases, the best option will indeed be to be a long-term hold as there were many attractive properties in the Corus portfolio," a spokesman said late last year.

Younger Next Year for Women: Live Strong, Fit, and Sexy - Until You're 80 and Beyond (Paperback)
Co-written by one of the country's most prominent internists, Dr. Henry "Harry" Lodge, and his star patient, the 73-year-old Chris Crowley, "Younger Next Year for Women" is a book of hope, a guide to aging without fear or anxiety. This is a book of hope, a guide to aging without fear or anxiety. Using the same inspired structure of alternating voices, Chris and Harry have recast material specifically for women, who already live longer and take better care of themselves than men. New material covers menopause and post-menopause, as well as cardiac disease, osteoporosis, sexuality, and more.
This is the book that can show us how to turn back our biological clocks how to put off 70% of the normal problems of aging (weakness, sore joints, bad balance) and eliminate 50% of serious illness and injury. The key to the program is found in Harry's Rules: Exercise six days a week. Don't eat crap. Connect and commit to others. There are seven rules all together, based on the latest findings in cell physiology, evolutionary biology, anthropology, and experimental psychology. Dr. Lodge explains how and why they work and Chris Crowley, who is living proof of their effectiveness (skiing better today, for example, than he did twenty years ago), gives the just-as-essential motivation.
Both men and women can become functionally younger every year for the next five to ten years, then continue to live with newfound vitality and pleasure deep into our 80s and beyond.
About the Author
Chris Crowley is Dr. Lodge's 80-year-old patient the relentless drum-beater for YOUNGER NEXT YEAR and the living proof that Harry s Rules work: It "is "possible to turn back the biological clock.
HENRY S. LODGE, M.D., 46, is a board-certified internist who heads a 23-doctor practice in Manhattan and appears regularly in "Best Doctors in New York/America/World" surveys. He is a member of the clinical faculty at Columbia Medical School. He lives in New York City.

SANTIAGO, Chile (AP) - Chile's president says all 33 miners trapped in a collapsed mine for 17 days are alive.
Miners say they heard hammering noises when they sent a new probe 2,257 feet (688 meters) deep into the collapsed gold and copper mine near the site of a shelter where they has hoped the workers had escaped.
Rescuers say a probe sent into the mine came back with a paper message written in red letters saying, "All 33 of us are fine in the shelter."

Oct. 11, 2010 (San Diego) -- High-fructose corn syrup, a sweetener used in soft drinks and many other products, isn't more likely than sucrose, commonly called table sugar, to promote weight gain, according to a study presented at the annual meeting of the Obesity Society.
The study was supported by the Corn Refiners Association, a trade organization representing corn refiners who make high-fructose corn syrup and other products.
When overweight and obese people were given each type of sweetener, ''we saw no differences between the two treatments," says researcher Joshua Lowndes of the Rippe Lifestyle Research Institute at Florida in Celebration.
Sweetener Wars
While high-fructose corn syrup has gotten a reputation as a "bad" sugar, the new study found that neither sweetener, when consumed as part of a sensible diet, promoted weight gain or fat accumulation.
To compare the two, Lowndes assigned 105 overweight or obese people, average age 38, to one of four groups. All were instructed to eat a diet that would maintain their current weight over the 10-week study.
They were assigned to drink milk sweetened with either high-fructose corn syrup or sucrose.
One group drank 10% of their calories from a high-fructose corn syrup-sweetened milk, and another group got 20% of their calories from the beverage.
A third group drank 10% of their calories from a sucrose-sweetened milk, and a fourth group drank 20% of their calories from the beverage.
The levels of sweetener consumed are typical levels, according to Lowndes.
They compared body weight before and after the study, as well as body fat percentage, fat mass, and abdominal fat. The participants visited the clinic weekly and reported their dietary intake.
''There were no differences in the amount of calories they decided to eat," Lowndes says of the sucrose and high-fructose corn syrup groups. "If there were differences, they are very small."
''Energy intake was up about 350 or 400 calories a day," he says.
At the end of 10 weeks, the difference in body weight for all groups averaged 2 pounds, he found. There were no substantial changes in body fat percent, fat mass, or belly fat.

Charting a course for employee performance
Published: Saturday, August 30, 2008 at 7:00 p.m.
Last Modified: Saturday, August 30, 2008 at 7:19 p.m.
Take your right hand and touch your right ear.
Take your left hand and touch your nose.
Tap your right toe three times.
Pat your left knee with your left hand.
Were you able to follow my instructions? Participants in my classes are usually
able to comply with my directions without a problem. Why were you able to do as
instructed? Most people would say because they understood exactly what I mean
when I say right hand, right ear, etc. You might agree that my directions were pretty
Why are there so many miscommunications in the workplace and on the job? Often
miscommunications come up because we are not using commonly understood terms and standards. Can you tell me the definitions of:
- Good communication skills?
- Excellent customer service?
- Punctuality?
- A good worker?
- A job well done?
Ill bet that each person reading this has a different definition for each of those terms. Thats why when coaching employees it is vital that we communicate explicitly, up front, our expectations for our employees. We cant assume that the employee knows and shares our definitions of these terms. Often, managers
become frustrated because a team member isnt doing a good job, when, in fact,
they never sat down with that individual and clearly explained their definition of
a good job. I tell leaders in my training classes that failing to discuss performance
expectations with their employees in advance is like asking them to go from New
Orleans to Baltimore without a map.
I flew to New York recently, and as I boarded the plane, I got a glimpse into the
cockpit. Im always amazed by the huge instrument panel on a commercial
airplane. The pilot relies constantly on her instrument panel to ensure that the
plane is on the correct path. The gauges keep the pilot informed of altitude and
attitude. Of course, before we ever boarded the plane, the pilot had filed a flight plan
with the control tower so that our route was clearly mapped out.
Leaders, managers, supervisors, whatever the job title, serve, essentially as a
coach to the employees in their charge. But there are some analogies between your role as a coach and my flight to New York. The first step, as I already
mentioned is to map out the flight plan this is where you clearly establish
performance expectations. Make sure that you and the employee are on the same
page. You may want to demonstrate how the job is done, offer examples of quality
work, or provide written guidelines and benchmarks. Dont assume that the
employee knows or understands your definition of a good job. Setting
performance expectations is like mapping out the employees route to a good job.
Your next step is to function like the pilots instrument panel. Throughout the flight
the pilot refers to the instrument panel to determine if the plane is on course. He
will adjust his altitude or attitude (I like that one the best!), his speed, etc. based on
the feedback he gets from his instrument panel. Without the feedback from the
instrument panel and the pilots constant course correction, the plane might easily
wind up in Peoria rather than Baltimore, or worse!
Similar to the instrument panel, your role is to give the employee feedback on his
performance. You help keep the team member on track ... to give him or her a
nudge every now and then before they veer off the path or wander off into
unacceptable work performance. Provide real-time feedback that informs the
employee of his or her performance in relation to the established flight plan (or
work performance expectations).
Most employees would rather have negative feedback than no feedback at all.
Wouldnt you? Wouldnt you prefer to have your manager tell you that youre doing a
job incorrectly, and have him or her show you the correct way, BEFORE you crash
and burn? Before he hands you a negative performance appraisal? And make your
feedback specific! What good does it do to tell an employee that the 300-page
document that they just compiled has lots of errors in it? Or the 200-step process
that they just completed was done incorrectly? Why not just tell them to go look for a
needle in a haystack? It would be much more helpful, and thus, less time
consuming and frustrating to give specific examples of the mistakes. At least the
employee knows where to begin looking and can quickly correct their course.
Of course, there are always those supervisors who dont know how to give
constructive feedback. They somehow miss out on the constructive part. Constructive feedback should be like the pilots instrument panel. Its an opportunity
to relay back to the pilot that they are veering off-course, and simply need to correct
their course. Some supervisors, however, observe an employee making a mistake
or falling short of the performance goal, and dont say a word. I guess they hope the
employee will figure it out on their own and correct themselves.
Finally the manager, frustrated, blows a fuse and blows up at the employee. The
employee never saw it coming. Hes as confused as ever and usually pretty upset
that his boss is upset with them. Personally, I am convinced that most people come
to work wanting to do a good job. Most people do not get out of bed anxious to go to
work so that they can do a poor job and upset their boss. What I also believe,
however, is that without constructive, specific feedback employees become
disillusioned and frustrated again, often because theyre trying to fly without a
flight plan, a compass, or an instrument panel. Add to that a boss who blows up at
them, berates, and humiliates them, and then youve got one disengaged worker.
Feedback does not have to be confrontational. It does, however, need to be timely,
(before the employee crashes), specific, (Adjust this, tweak that), and constructive,
(Youre doing a great job, you just need to course-correct). Follow these
procedures, and youll avoid in-flight turbulence and enjoy a smooth landing!

text: My Dell Latitude XT tablet PC display (touchscreen) won't turn off when inactive. The hard drive on this laptop died, so I installed a new hard drive. Both the old and new hard drives use(d) Windows 7. Everything works fine except for the display not turning off at the set time. In the power options, I set the display to turn off after 10 minutes. After 10 minutes, the display does indeed turn off, but then turns back on within 1-2 seconds. I have installed the latest drivers from the N-Trig website for the touchscreen and have calibrated it. It's not a mouse issue because this still happens when I unplug the mouse and use only the touchpad or nub (the XT has both). It's not a screensaver issue. When enabled, the screensaver works/turns on. But what I'm trying to do is turn off the display when the laptop is inactive. I also don't think it's a sleep mode issue. I've tried setting sleep mode to "60 minutes" and "never." The result is the same. The display still only turns off for a couple seconds, then turns back on. This cycle repeats every 10 minutes, which is the time I set for the display to turn off. I can only think that there is some program or device that keeps waking the display back up after it turns off. But I'm not sure how to tell which program or device is doing that. Any help would be appreciated.

Co-Sourcing Improves Pharmaceutical Laboratory Productivity
Clinical-Style Validation, Regulation, and Quality Control...
Researchers Now Have a Myriad of...
Loss of Lives in Clinical Trials...
AstraZeneca said today it launched a two-year research collaboration with the Lieber Institute for Brain Development (LIBD) to discover new drugs for neuropsychiatric and neurodevelopmental disorders such as autism and schizophrenia by applying genetics and stem cell biology.
The collaboration, whose value was not disclosed, is intended to define new approaches to treating diseases of the brain by combining AstraZeneca's expertise in neuroscience drug discovery with LIBD's expertise in human genomics, stem cell biology, and informatics.
AstraZeneca neuroscientists will work closely with LIBD researchers to identify and validate new drug targets and enhance approaches in patient segmentation to support new drug development.
The pharma giant's researchers will have access to LIBD's brain sample-based data set, which includes more than 1,000 postmortem brain samples, DNA samples, and brain imaging data from patients, family members, and control volunteers.
"Thanks to advances in stem cell biology and human genetics, we are seeing a real shift in neuroscience drug discovery where a deeper understanding of the causes of these disorders is opening up new drug targets and more personalized treatment that will ultimately benefit patients," Michael Poole, head of AstraZeneca's neuroscience innovative medicines and early development group, said in a statement.
AstraZeneca is the second giant drug developer to launch a collaboration with LIBD in less than six months. Back in July, UCB and the institute committed to joint research aimed at discovery of new drugs for treating patients suffering from cognitive impairment. The partners agreed to contribute chemical compounds, from which they plan to generate and develop new drug candidates.
LIBD houses a drug discovery division with investigators specializing in medicinal chemistry, assay development, and evaluation of lead compounds for their effects on biomarkers and within in vivo behavioral models.
LIBD is a not-for-profit Maryland medical research institution affiliated with The Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine, and based on past collaborations between the NIH, select academic institutions, and the pharmaceutical industry.

"We're packing up and moving to the warehouse that Lupe found," Dolph replied. "Better wake the others. That girl Fayte that Velvela turned; she ought to be ready to travel. We can hunt when we get to the river; as well as river birds, there'll be rats, too."
In that same city, a young man walked with a young woman. To the casual observer, it would appear that they were a couple; yet, that observer would be wrong. The young man had short black hair and icy blue eyes. Hidden beneath his coat was a belt which contained an ebony fighting stick, with a very sharp point at one end. He also had several wooden knives concealed in his clothes; a stiletto knife in one boot, a punch dagger in the pocket of his coat and several other items concealed in secret pockets.
The young man's name was Raziel and he, along with his companion, was a vampire hunter. There had been a smattering of suspicious deaths in the area and they had come to investigate. Raziel had become a vampire hunter after running away from his mother, and being adopted by a hunter named Misty. She had taught him everything she knew, being a lapsed ninja, and a lot more besides, being also a vampire hunter. Raziel had teamed up with his companion soon after, as two hunters working together was best when dealing with the undead. They had a platonic relationship as a general rule; romance had no place in their work.

Son of Pentecostal Church Founder Expanded Colorful Mother's Empire
A living link to the early days of American Pentecostalism, Rolf K. McPherson inherited and extended his mother's ministry, the International Church of the Foursquare Gospel.
Dr. McPherson, who died May 21 at age 96, was the only son of Aimee Semple McPherson, an evangelist whose religious revivals in the 1920s and 1930s attracted thousands of exultant converts. An early Pentecostal celebrity, she inspired national media coverage, both for the faith-healing and speaking-in-tongues of her revivals, and for whiffs of scandal arising from her personal life.
Although a less charismatic presence in the pulpit, by his 1988 retirement Dr. McPherson had extended his mother's ministry to about 1.2 million members, up from 29,000 at her death in 1944, the church says. The Foursquare Church today claims 8.4 million members, the majority of them outside the U.S.
As a child, Dr. McPherson crisscrossed the country with his mother in her "Gospel Car," emblazoned with the message, "Jesus Is Coming Soon -- Get Ready." He told Charisma magazine in 1996: "Often Mother would...go down and pray for somebody on a stretcher. They would get up off the stretcher, and the stretcher would be carried off empty."
His mother divorced and settled with him in Los Angeles in the early 1920s, and raised money for the construction of the 5,000-seat Angelus Temple, still the Foursquare Church's headquarters.
She was a pioneer of gospel radio and in 1924 founded KFSG in Los Angeles to beam her sermons to the faithful. Dr. McPherson later attended the Southern California Radio Institute and ran the station for decades. KFSG was sold in 2000 for $250 million, an important source of funds for the church's growing world-wide evangelism.
- Notable deaths from the business world and entertainment industry from Tributes.com.
The radio station provided an odd note in the Aimee Semple McPherson legend, as it was the station's chief engineer she allegedly ran off with in 1926, after she disappeared while swimming. Her family thought her dead, and a photo of the grieving Rolf, at 11, ran in the Los Angeles Times. She turned up a month later, claiming she had been kidnapped. It was a media sensation, and historians still speculate on what really happened.
After Aimee died in 1944 of an overdose of sleeping pills, Dr. McPherson, by now a minister himself, became pastor at the Angelus Chapel and ran the Foursquare Church for the next four decades. Under his leadership, the church experienced steady growth, sending its most dedicated members abroad as missionaries trained at its Bible schools.
"He became the custodian of her vision though he didn't have the charisma that she did," says Vinson Synan, dean emeritus of the Regent University School of Divinity. "He became a kind of denominational executive."

If this sounds as though it is connected with Italian pasta, you're right. It was coined in the sixteenth century by the Italian poet Teofilo Folengo, in reference to a sort of burlesque verse he invented in which Italian words were mixed in with Latin ones for comic effect.
He said that he linked the crude hotch-potch of language in the verse with the homely foodstuff called macaroni, a dish which he described (in Latin, of course) as "pulmentum farina, caseo, botiro compaginatum, grossum, rude, et rusticanum" ("a savoury dish bound together with flour, cheese [and] butter, [a dish] which is fat, coarse, and rustic").
The word first appeared in English a century later and expanded its scope to refer to any form of verse in which two or more languages were mixed together. A once-famous American example was the mixed German-English verses of Hans Breitmann's Ballads by Charles Leland, in which a German immigrant is overwhelmed by mid-nineteenth-century America and speaks in a mixture of German and heavily accented English.
Macaronic verse has a link to the eighteenth-century London dandies who were called macaronis because they liked foreign food, Italian in particular, as a result of experiencing it on the Grand Tour. A certain famous old song also contains the word: "Yankee Doodle went to town, / Riding on a pony, / Stuck a feather in his hat, / And called it macaroni", but that is linked to the dandy sense, not the verse one.

By glancing back at last week's win and looking forward to the next opponent, however, Nebraska City fans will feel a lot better.
Trevor Chaney's game-winning touchdown run against Omaha Roncalli on Sept. 7 helped put the Pioneers in position to make history on Sept. 21.
The Pioneers will play at winless Elkhorn Mount Michael, and, while no one is putting that automatically in the win column, everyone must acknowledge that the game gives Nebraska City a chance do something it hasn't in a long while—win three or more games.
Nebraska City won five games back in 2003. In the eight seasons that have followed, the team has won two or less games.

Ono Pharmaceutical and Receptos inked an R&D collaboration focused on the development of small molecule modulators against an undisclosed GPCR target. Receptos will use its GPCR structure technology platform to generate high resolution protein crystal structures of the target, to aid its partner's structure-based drug-design work. Ono will pay Receptos an up-front payment, research funding and development-based milestones.
San Diego-based Receptos is exploiting its GPCR cell- and protein-based screening and receptor structure determination platforms for the rational design of drugs against GPCR targets. The firm's technologies are founded on GPCR protein crystallization/structure determination technology licensed from The Scripps Research Institute.
The firm's lead in house candidate, RPC1063, is a selective, orally available sphingosine 1-phosphate (S1P) agonist in Phase I development initially as a potential treatment for relapsing, remitting multiple sclerosis, and potentially against other autoimmune disorders. The ongoing U.S. Phase I trial in healthy volunteers was initiated in January and is expected to be completed in 2011. A Phase II proof-of-concept study is expected to start during 2012. Receptos has additional ongoing GPCR partnerships with Lilly and and Ortho-McNeil-Janssen.

MDMA (commonly known as the empathogen "ecstasy") is classified as a Schedule 1 drug, which is reserved for compounds with no accepted medical use and a high abuse potential. Two researchers from Stanford, however, call for a rigorous scientific exploration of MDMA's effects to identify precisely how the drug works, the data from which could be used to develop therapeutic compounds.Do you agree that ecstasy should be studied for its potential therapeutic benefits?

Product Description
Heartburn and other assorted 'bellyaches' are some of the most common consequences of modern living. Stress, poor diet, and eating 'on the run' are the most common culprits. More than 60 million Americans have heartburn at least once a month, and about 15 million have more frequently. Flatulence (bloating) is another sign that it's probably time to slow down and take the time to chew our food more thoroughly. People try an astonishing variety of pills, potions and powders in an attempt to counteract this discomfort. Sometimes the solutions are quite simple: Increase your exercise and drop some weight. Watch your diet. Take time to relax. Make mealtime a sanctuary.
However, when you need a bit of help for those occasional episodes, Dr. Peter D'Adamo has designed Gastro-D Complex, a unique combination of herbs and minerals designed to soothe and calm that upset stomach.
Gastro-D Complex contains five well-researched ingredients that help support stomach health:
- Deglycyrrhizinated Licorice (DGL): Licorice has been used since ancient times as a 'demulcent,' providing a soothing, protective effect on the stomach. Dr. D'Adamo uses the 'deglycyrrhizinated' form of licorice to insure the best results
- Mastic Gum: Mastic has been used as a medicine since antiquity and is still used in traditional folk medicine of the Middle East. Hippocrates wrote that the mastic is good for prevention of digestive problems, and it was often chewed as a sort of 'ancient chewing gum.' The rarity of mastic and the difficulty of its production make it and expensive ingredient.
- Safflower Tops: These flowers provide additional soothing support against occasional heartburn, especially for blood type O non-secretors
- Slippery Elm: The inner bark rind of Slippery Elm has a long traditional herbal use for the occasional upset stomach
- Bismuth: This mineral has a long medical history of being used to treat temporary discomforts of the stomach and gastrointestinal tract
Occasional heartburn or bloating seems to come with modern living. However, these symptoms can also be a sign of other problems. If they persist, or worsen, it would be prudent to seek medical advice. For those simple problems that result from over-indulgence or stressful eating, Gastro-D Complex can be a very useful addition to your supplement protocol.

What factors generally seem most important if you have issues of geography that seem relevant for providing an internet service and freedom to choose between locations. How do you evaluate them?
A contrast may help indicate what I am getting at: in Europe if one is shopping for a VPS, the Netherlands appears to me to be a category killer because of (i) The AMS-IX international IP hub, and (ii) the huge number of competetive, professional VPS providers that have grown up around the hub. But the US seems to be harder to evaluate, and it seems that a lot of people choose to have hosting in all four timezones, which seems like overkill for all but the biggest enterprises.

The Menstrual Distress Questionnaire (MDQ) is the most widely used method of assessing premenstrual symptomatology. It is also the most frequently criticized instrument in this field. A review of the criticisms made toward the MDQ revealed three major issues concerning the reliability and validity of this instrument and the sample from whom normative data were gathered. These issues were examined in light of 49 studies that used this instrument between 1968 and 1990. Many of the criticisms were found to be justified. A marked lack of adequate research into the MDQ's reliability, problems associated with the normative sample, and uncertain validity were found. In particular, the MDQ appears to measure constructs unrelated to the menstrual cycle and define premenstrual syndrome inaccurately. In addition, the factor structure of this instrument may be unstable. These conclusions were tempered with the knowledge that the MDQ has not been utilized to its full potential in most of the research conducted to date.

This tofu recipe is a favorite in our house. We've been making it for years. I throw in extra veggies like red pepper for crunch.
Tofu with Peanut-Ginger Sauce
From EatingWell: February/March 2005, The EatingWell Diabetes Cookbook (2005)
Tofu and vegetables get a dramatic lift from a spicy peanut sauce. Serve with a cucumber salad for a low-calorie, nutrient-packed vegetarian supper.
28 Reviews for Tofu with Peanut-Ginger Sauce
I absolutely loved this, and the sauce was so easy to prepare (my 2.5-year-old helped stir it), particularly if you can use cheats like frozen ginger and garlic purées. It didn't taste low-calorie, and it filled me up. I used basmati rice as this was all we had in, and it worked well with it. My little boy found it a bit too spicy, so I cooled his down with 2teaspoons of low fat Greek yoghurt. It cooled it down in both senses of the word, and made me realise this would make a really nice cold pasta-salad-style dish if you have leftovers the next day if you do this. If you aren't vegetarian, you could substitute in some meat instead of the tofu. The sauce would work well to make chicken satay skewers too.
Too much peanut butter. It drowns out the ginger and garlic and coats everything in an overwhelmingly peanut buttery slime. If I ever make this again, I'll cut the peanut butter in half.
Made as per recipe with the following additions-
-Added two teaspoons of Sambal Oelek to the sauce
-Added one, large, julienned carrot with the veggies
-Replaced the green onions with 1/2 sliced white onion
I used black tofu and served it over brown rice. It was filling enough for four, including two growing kids, and we all liked it.
I made with sliced celery and cubed zucchini- Very Tasty! I love the combo of celery and peanut butter so great in this easy quick recipe.

Pat DePriest of Ponte Vedra Beach has 500 hamburger recipes."Back in the '60s, when I was first married, we lived paycheck to paycheck and hamburger was cheap," she recalls. "I bought 20 pounds of hamburger on pay day and served a different dish every night. Necessity is the mother of invention."
Today, DePriest is the single mother of two and grandmother of three, and her creative hamburger dishes are still in demand at family gatherings.
"My daughter, though, got really tired of hamburger and rice dishes, which were one of our staples," says DePriest, with a grin. "The only way she'll eat hamburger now is grilled, and hard as a rock!"
DePriest works at the Gate Station on A1A and noted that both hamburger and gas have gotten a lot more expensive since the '60s -- especially gas.
"Gas was 24 cents a gallon back then, so a trip to the grocery store was the least of my worries."
This 4th of July, she plans to watch fireworks at the beach and do some hamburger grilling with friends. Recently, DePriest brought in a dried beef dip recipe that she shared with co-workers and customers, and she's thinking it might be a great topping for those rock-hard grilled hamburgers her daughter likes.Here is her recipe for dried beef dip, and her son's favorite of her 500 hamburger recipes:
Pat's Dried Beef Dip
1 small jar Armour dried beef -- wash thoroughly and chop into very small pieces
2 8-oz. pks. Philly cream cheese, softened
1/2 bunch scallions, chopped
1 tsp. Accent
Wash the dried beef and chop. Cut scallions into small pieces. Add all ingredients to softened cream cheese. Blend with mixer. Serve with your favorite cracker -- the new topables from Nabisco or Bretons make a great choice. Refrigerate leftovers. (If you want a crowd-size serving , use the large jar of dried beef and increase the cream cheese to four 8-oz. packs and the Accent to 2 tsp. Use an entire bunch of chopped scallions)
Pat's Burger Surprise
1 lb. lean ground beef
1 finely chopped onion
1 16-oz. can Spanish tomato sauce
2 cups cooked instant rice
1 c. shredded sharp cheddar cheese
Cook the instant rice according to directions and set aside.
Brown the ground beef in a cast iron skillet. Add the onions and allow them to turn translucent. Salt and pepper to taste. Add the entire can of tomato sauce. Stir to coat the meat. Now, add the cooked rice and blend all ingredients, still in the skillet. Turn the stove on very low, Pat the mixture down evenly in the skillet, cover with the shredded cheese. Allow the cheese to melt. Serve immediately.
Did you know that if you put Super Glue on a cotton ball and place it carefully in a large zip lock plastic bag that contains a CD or DVD diskette, the fumes from the glue will reveal latent fingerprints on the diskette?
This is just one of the many investigative techniques learned last week by 12-year-old Alexander Fischer of Ponte Vedra Beach, when he attended CSI (Crime Scene Investigation) Camp at Florida Community College-Jacksonville's downtown Advanced Technology Center.
Along with 22 other campers from throughout North Florida and South Georgia, Alexander spent the week investigating an elaborate crime scenario set up by camp director Wally Eaton, FCCJ professor of cyberforensics, and other members of the faculty, learning first-hand from the Florida Department of Law Enforcement, the bomb squad, and the Jacksonville Sheriff's Office CSI Unit, about fingerprint detection, blood samples, tire tracks, Internet clues, and even participating in a mock trial conducted by Circuit Judge James A. Ruth. "I was astounded at what the kids learned," said Alexander's dad, John Fischer, noting that they came away from the camp with a new awareness of the "real world" as opposed to the glamour of the popular CSI television series. One real-world lesson Alexander inadvertently learned was that "careful" is the key word when detecting fingerprints on diskettes with Super Glue. "Oh no," declared Professor Eaton, coming to the rescue as Alexander dramatically held up his glued gloved hand. That's the real world, noted Eaton. No matter how carefully the planning, you can expect the unexpected.
Ponte Vedra Beach abounds with great activities this summer for both the younger set and the older set. A Children's Film Festival at the Ponte Vedra Beach Library will happen each Monday through July 28, beginning at 2 p.m. To learn what children's movie is playing, call 273-0495. And, for folks over 50, the ATP Tennis Club at 201 Tour Blvd., Ponte Vedra Beach, will have seniors tennis matches beginning at 8:30 a.m. on Thursdays. Continental breakfast is included. For information on seniors tennis, call 285-6400.
Special anniversary congratulations to Joe and Elizabeth Callander of Ponte Vedra Beach, who were married last 4th of July "barefoot on the beach." This is one couple whose anniversary celebration is guaranteed to be exciting every year.
Whether you're grilling hamburgers, watching fireworks on the beach, or simply basking in the sun by the pool, may your celebration of America's birthday and the freedoms we share in this great country be a safe and happy one.

Still happening
When it was decided in the 1920s that the golf course that used to exist around India Gate was to be moved - because it was interfering with Lutyen's building plans - the then chief of the horticultural department is said to have borrowed an elephant and marched into scrub and jungle until he hit Humayun's tomb. There he began to recce the area for a suitable spot for the new golf course until he stood at what is today called the Delhi Golf Club (DGC).
Legend has it that the chief, a golf-playing Scotsman, was also an amateur archaeologist. And that he chose DGC's current site in the midst of Lodhi-era monuments, which still form part of the course, because he thought moving the course's bunkers around might unearth other archeological finds.
After Partition, with a number of members moving to Pakistan, the club found itself down to 80 golfers and not enough money to look after the course. That forced the municipality to step in and say the golfers would have to fund a self-supporting club with a minimum of 120 members or that they would shut it down. Once those conditions were met, today's DGC was formed in 1951.
It was then suggested that the valuable land the course sat on should be taken over for housing since the capital's population had exploded after Partition. It took DGC founder member Dharma Vira, cabinet secretary and governor of many states, to convince Nehru not to let that happen. But some land was lost, to what are now the Golf Links and Kaka Nagar colonies. Apart from Vira, the club's other notable presidents have included General KS Thimmaya, Marshall of the Air Force Arjan Singh, who members say still comes for a cup of tea at the club house on most evenings, and Romesh Bhandari.
The younger members say the pub in the clubhouse is a "happening" place to be on Friday and Saturday nights, and that Priyanka Gandhi and Robert Vadra stop by from time to time. The government last year extended the club's lease up to 2050 and there are over 3, 300 members. Membership is a prized commodity. An ardent DGC loyalist says she will pass her membership to her grandchildren. "They might not appreciate it today, but they will one day, " she says.

Stanley E. Stolen, 77, passed away in Granite Falls on Wednesday, January 8, 2014.
A memorial service for family members will be held at a later date.
Stanley Earl Stolen was born December 31, 1936 in Fosston to Elmer and Nina (Hoialmen) Stolen. He grew up on the family farm near Fosston, where he attended the Fosston High School until graduating in 1954.
After graduating, he moved to Granite Falls, where he met and married Myrna Mae Yeager on June 30, 1956. Stan and Myrna made their home in the Granite Falls/Wood Lake/Hanley Falls area, where they raised their six children.
The term "jack-of-all-trades" could have been created for Stan. He had many skills and many jobs including everything from building homes to driving truck to medical transport. There wasn't anything he couldn't build or make. He owned businesses including a grocery store, construction business, chainsaw sharpening and repair, antique store, and was a licensed gun dealer. Stan loved hunting and fishing from early on in life, both activities he enjoyed sharing with friends and family. He loved children, especially his grandchildren and great grandchildren. He loved animals, often carrying dog treats in his pocket in the case that he'd happen upon one. He loved to play pranks on those around him, and tell jokes, with his easy laugh and frequent smile. He talked to strangers everywhere he went and made many friends throughout his lifetime. He was always known to lend a helping hand to anyone in need.
He is survived by his wife Myrna of Hanley Falls; children Deb (Scott) Klapperich of Baldwin, WI, Daniel Stolen of Montevideo, Lori Stolen of Hanley Falls, Russell (Mary) Stolen of Savage, Kelby Stolen of Redwood Falls; 10 grandchildren; 9 great grandchildren; siblings Paul (Debbie) Stolen, Marilyn (Russell) Nelson, Judy (P.) Willey, Diane (Randy) Withrow; as well as many cousins, nieces, nephews, great nieces and great nephews.
He was preceeded in death by his parents, son Charles Stolen, and two grandchildren.
