HOUSTON, Texas - The Alabama A&M Bulldogs are headed to the SWAC semifinals, inching closer to the potential for their first NCAA tournament invitation since 2005.
Alabama A&M, with 16 points and 11 rebounds from the suddenly sensational seven-footer Justan Banks, knocked off Arkansas-Pine Bluff 69-50 Thursday night at the Toyota Center in the quarterfinals.
The Bulldogs, now 14-15 on the season after finishing their SWAC schedule at 10-8, face eighth-seeded Prairie View A&M at 8 p.m. Friday in the semifinals.
Prairie View stunned top-seeded, regular-season champ Southern 64-46 in Wednesday's quarterfinals.
Texas Southern, the No.2 seed and de facto home team with its campus a mere five minutes away, meets third-seeded Alabama A&M at 12:30 Friday, with the championship game set for Saturday at 3:30 p.m. on ESPN2.
Alabama State beat Alcorn 64-51 on Thursday afternoon in another quarterfinal game.
Brandon Ellis led A&M scorers with 18 points, Arthur Capers added 12 and Demarquelle Tabb 11. Jeremy Crutcher, the Dogs' leading scorer, was held to six points but had five rebounds and seven assists.
Arkansas-Pine Bluff, without leading scorer Marcel Mosley out with an injury, was led by Tevin Hammond with 14 points and 10 assists.
Alabama A&M dominated Pine Bluff on the backboards, 46-27, and shot 43.4 from the field compared to 32.1 for Pine Bluff.
Alabama A&M never trailed in the first half and put together a 15-0 run, five-minute run to go ahead 25-8 as Pine Bluff missed seven straight shots and committed three turnovers in the stretch. That left the Bulldogs comfortably ahead 34-18 at the half.
Never a team to embrace prosperity, A&M proceeded to start the second half by shooting 1-for-7 but once Pine Bluff cut the lead to 52-42 near the eight-minute mark, it went scoreless from the field for nearly five minutes, enabling A&M to sock things away. Banks, the most recent SWAC player of the week, scored six points and grabbed seven rebounds in the final eight minutes.
Alabama A&M's win helped wash the SWAC Tournament free of some bit of controversy.
Four SWAC teams - Southern, Mississippi Valley State, Grambling and Arkansas-Pine Bluff -- were declared ineligible for postseason NCAA play because of their poor APR (Academic Progress Rate) scores. However, the SWAC presidents voted to let those teams participate in the tournament, with the league's automatic bid going to the eligible team that goes deepest.
Though 10th-seeded Grambling upset Jackson State in the first round, it was eliminated by Texas Southern on Wednesday. Prairie View kayoed both Mississippi Valley and Southern, then A&M took care of Pine Bluff.
Thus, Saturday's championship game winner will have a more legitimate claim to the league's automatic-qualifier invitation to the NCAA Tournament, a position that will all but surely send the SWAC representative back to the NCAA's "First Four" in Dayton, in what is often referred to as a "play-in game" to make it into the 64-team NCAA bracket. The SWAC has had five teams represented in the First Four, the most of any conference. Alabama A&M played in the First Four in 2005.

Telenovela-World: Re: Darn!! I forgot that it started yesterday and I missed the first episode! Are
Author: Mauricio (---) Date: 04-10-07 18:16 PDT [First USA Episode: April 9, 2007]
I can tell you what happened on the first episode.
The novela starts with the police finding lots of money in a yellow car.
Then we see Martin, Emiliano, and Felipe giving a serrenata. Martin is the one who is giving the serrenata to Emiliano's sister because he and Emiliano's sister Cristina are going to get married the next day. After giving the serrenata, Emiliano and Felipe take Martin to this place where they are giving Martin a party.
We find out that Martin and Steve have something to do with the money that was found.
The police is outside, and they send these women police officers to go in to the party, and the women police officers dance for all the men at the party. Emiliano and Felipe go somewhere else. Later, the women police officers stop dancing and they arrest everyone at the party. Emiliano and Felipe aren't found yet, and after Emiliano finds out what is happening at the party, he calls his lawyer Miguel.
(I think that Miguel has something to do with the money also). The lawyer tells Emiliano and Felipe that they should escape before they are found by the police. Miguel then calls and tells Martin to convince Emiliano and Felipe to escape. Emiliano and Felipe do escape. Miguel tells Emiliano that he should leave the country. Emiliano ends up agreeing to leaving the country and going to Brazil. Martin and Steve are arrested.
At the bar called Garibaldi, Rosario is singing. After she finishes singing, we see this women named Nora coming in. Nora insults Rosario, because it seems that her husband likes Rosario. Rosario doesn't let herself get insulted. Don Carlos (the owner of the bar) comes out and tells Rosario that he doesn't want to have any problems. After Nora and her husband leave, Don Carlos and Rosario are talking. Don Carlos says that what happened at the bar will cost Rosario one day of pay. Later, this women reads Rosario the cards and tells her that in her future there is a man and that he has problems.
Emiliano and Felipe go to the airport. Emiliano is told that there aren't any seats left to go to Brazil, so he is told that his only option is to go to Colombia and then take a plane to Brazil from there. He agrees to that. Felipe stays and later goes to a hotel. Emiliano goes to Colombia.
Thats what happened on the first episode.
Telenovela-World: Final episode of LHDM Author: julie56 (---) Date: 10-19-07 20:28 PDT
Steve goes to appointed meeting place where there is an old abandoned warehouse by railroad tracks. Andreu and Corona meet Steve and he tells them he wants them to leave him in peace. The Gringo says no deals and holds a gun to Corona's head and says that Corona will kill Steve. Corona says NO he won't kill Steve and Steve starts yelling and dozens of police surround them. Gringo points a gun a fires a shot but Salas shoots him in shoulder. They are taken away.
A Mexican judge finds Emiliano and Felipe innocent and they get their belongings and leave the prison. Emil is excited and tells his parents he is going to Colombia to marry Rosario. He leaves and arrives at Lucia's school and she sees him and runs to him just as Raquel arrives to get Lucia. They talk and Raquel is happy for Rosario but stunned that Emil is in Colombia. Emil goes to see Don Genereo and gives him a hug. At Raquel's home E. tells her he is going to marry Rosario and hands her the little box with the ring he will give Rosario. He is next seen in his mariachi suit and he, Raquel and Lucia arrive at the Garabaldi bar to surprise Rosario. Leticia sees Emil and hugs him and says she will tell Rosario, but he says no, just get me a hand microphone. She gets it. The mariachis are playing and Coloso is ready to sing a song when Fran's voice is heard singing and Rosario can't believe it and runs down to look for him and sees him upstairs She is shocked to see Fran and starts crying as he sings 'La Mano de Dios' to her. When he finishes singing he kisses her and asks her if she wants to marry him and he puts the ring on her finger as everyone, including Raquel and Lucia look on. E & Rosario hold on to each other tightly.
CHURCH IN BOGATA; Everyone is in the church and I mean everyone, the entire mariachi group, E's parents, Raquel, all the waiters and cocktail girls, Don Genero, Don Carlos, his wife. Felipe is the best man. Emiliano can't stand still and wants to know where Rosario is. Eulalia and Raquel tell Emil to calm down and the mariachi guys all chant in chorus, LARA LARA LARA. Felipe and Fernando talk and Fern tells him that Emil is giving him a trip to China and buying him a sport car, Felipe says that Emil wants to support him for the rest of his life and is giving him a new car to replace the famous yellow one. Also, Coloso is getting a Mercedes-Benz convertible and Don genero is getting his own house. Emil had told Raquel that she is getting a house and a car with a chauffer to drive Lucia to school.
Fernando escorts Rosario down the aisle she is wearing a beautiful white gown but no veil just some small flowers in her hair and she looks beautiful but she trips but continues walking. The groom is wearing his Mariachi suit. Raquel, also looked beautiful in a pink suit. The wedding was interrupted serveral times by Emil and Rosario tried to calm him down. They finally exchange rings, kiss and then walk down the aisle as rose petals are tossed at them and into their future life together. FIN
PS I had posted on 10-06 my idea of what would happen and I guessed that Emil would give Fernando a fully paid trip and a new car. That Emil would return to Colombia and marry Rosario and a home and car for Raquel. The rest I did not quess correctlly. It had a good ending and the bad guys were arrested and Corona was one of the ones that got nabbed. I don't remember seeing either Macias or Virginia at the wedding. =:o)

no, America does not yet have a fat tax.... yet. Although, I do believe though the Soda taxes are higher than food taxes but not by much.
Just wanted to introduce myself, I'm Julia and I live in England. On the today programme this morning Cameron announced his desire to put a tax on fat; foods containing fat that is. I was getting a sneaky hopeful suspicion that things were changing in reagrds to nutrition - ther is a programme on at the moment called 'the Men who Made us Fat'. the Cameron comes up with this. not saying fats in the foods we buy in the supermarket are good fats, just saying that fat is demonised yet again. the spokesperson on the radio defending the tax idea tentatively suggested a tax on soda drinks would be better, as if he knew but wasn't allowed to say ... Does America have a fat-tax? Cameron says he is following models from other countries.
no, America does not yet have a fat tax.... yet. Although, I do believe though the Soda taxes are higher than food taxes but not by much.
Netherlands have the fat tax.
Eating primal is not a diet, it is a way of life.
Don't forget to play!
Having said that, I do recall a photograph of Cameron and his wife sitting at breakfast with that execrable clown Boris Johnson in a transport cafe, trying to look like "ordinary people". Johnson had the "full English breakfast," eggs, bacon, sausages, black pudding, tomatoes, baked beans ... all doubtless fried in polyunsaturated vegetable oil.
Cameron and his wife appeared to be breakfasting on a boiled tomato each.
There was a huge pile of toast on the table ... it seemed to be in front of Johnson.
There you have two completely different misunderstandings of how to eat:
Option 1: eat virtually nothing, and make sure what you do eat is low fat and "mostly plants";
Option 2: stuff whatever is on offer in your mouth. Don't turn down eggs, but make sure you get as much toast as possible.
With people like this how could Great Britain get any sensible national food policies?
I'm not making a party-political point. The opposition would be equally bad, or perhaps worse.
definately a way to raise money, but such bad messages. when is the tide going to start turning?
Hi Julia, I'm a newbie here but might I suggest emailing your MP with your objections to fat tax and asking him/her to send your email on to the Minister for Public Health Anne Milton ?
I have never wanted to hurt and individual as badly as I have wanted to hurt Cameron, he just brings on the rage every time I am exsposed to anything the contemptable little turd has done. I thought Bush an imbercile and a disaster for the whole world, but just wanted him gone, Blair was a grinning sycophantic toad, but this slime, it's somehow beyond normal hatred and goes into to insane psyco rage.
Oh and Hi Julie for England - I'm not normally this mental
You know all those pictures of Adam and Eve where they have belly button? Think about it..................... take as long as you need........................
Hi JuliaK, no I didnt see that.It dosnt surpirse me though. I did watch the first two episodes of 'The men who made us fat' . I was really excited as I thought the truth would out at last. What a missed opportunity that was. I didnt watch the other episodes I was so disgusted. Maybe I should have just in case I missed something !
Ive noticed just recently that its getting hard to get anything except low fat suff in supermarkets. Sainsburys (oops, am I allowed to adverttise)? seem to keep a better selection. Even a local butcher we have ,trims all the fat off the meat. he does however render his own lard and beef fat.
As another member said ,maybe we should contact our MPs. Trouble is, there'e so much going on that unless there was a groundswell ,as in, our human rights as 'fat eaters' are being compromised ,I think it might be a waste of time.

I sat at Harvard Law last year and listened to Dr. Lustig lay out his case for controlling sugar in the same way that tobacco and alcohol are controlled, not only taxation but limited access. The science was interesting but the social engineering aspect of it sounded quite mad. He intimated that he had a direct line to the White House & FLOTUS's anti-fat campaign and sure enough some of these ideas are now being proposed at the local level.
These are the same folks that gave you the cholesterol hypothesis. As has already been suggested I think that this is a marriage of convenience with tax starved governments. At least in the US, non-restaurant food (groceries)has largely escaped taxation and sugar/fat/salt specific taxes are just the first steps in the elimination of the sales tax exemption for all foodstuff regardless of content. Someone has to pay for O'care.
BTW, Dr. L sure could use the Primal Blueprint. It is so obvious that he felt the necessity to mention it several times. He specifically blamed it on Maker's Mark. It's a lot of whiskey, I'll say.

Let me tell you about KraftWerks:
KraftWerks was started to house all of our Rotrex-powered supercharger kits by Jackson Racing. We believe the Rotrex product will be able to grow with this brand into the future.
KraftWerks is made up of us at Jackson Racing, with Oscar Jackson Sr. at the helm and the rest of our Jackson Racing supercharger engineers. The same quality and technology that you have known of JR, will be with KraftWerks, and will be better than ever. We have improved our supercharger design techniques and have learned quite a bit on the Rotrex supercharger from recent testing.
KraftWerks will establish its own distribution by the time of the release of our new kits. No other companies will be responsible for the distribution of KraftWerks supercharger kits.
We are working on some improvements to the Fit SC kit, no information on the changes has been released. The official changes will be made public at a later date. We hope to have the kit released by this December.
We appreciate the support of the Fit community very much. KraftWerks would also like to thank JDMChris for his continued support through this mess!
We are very excited about our new venture, and hope the Fit community is ready for some boost!!
Thank you all!
-Oscar Jackson Jr.

NFL draft: Williams 'hurt' when Seattle picked TateApril 23rd, 2010, 8:10 pm by Michael Lev, staff writer
I asked former USC receiver Damian Williams whether he felt the same way Taylor Mays did about Pete Carroll when Carroll's Seahawks selected Notre Dame's Golden Tate at the end of the second round.
"To be honest with you, it was hard. That pick hurt," said Williams, who went to the Tennessee Titans in Round 3. "I know it hurt Taylor yesterday. I talked to him throughout the process.
"It was tough for me. But that's the way it goes. You can't expect everything to fall right in place. I'm happy to be a Titan, and I can't wait to get out there."

KINGSFORD - The long winter has not put a damper on the Kingsford High School boys track team.

Burt Angeli/The Daily News Photo
Kingsford head coach Doug Roberts and assistant Brian Johnson (left) look over a boys track drill Wednesday at Flivver Field.
The 43-man Flivvers, who competed last month in Eagle River, Wis., have been "working very hard."
"I'm very happy with the turnout," said Coach Doug Roberts, who launched practice March 10. "We have spent a lot of time practicing indoors and are happy we are finally able to get some work in on the track."
Kingsford was able to practice outside briefly when practice began in March. Those outside drills ended until this week.
The Flivvers, in the indoor meet at the Northland Pines High School fieldhouse, placed second out of nine teams in the varsity portion of the meet. The Kingsford jayvees wound up first out of eight squads.
"Overall, we were happy with our times and distances and look forward to getting better each meet," Roberts said.
Jack Glodowski, with a real good meet, led the Flivvers with 23 points.
Glodowski took third in long jump, fourth in triple jump and fifth in the 400-meter run along with helping the 1600 relay (Jaxson Ferree, Jake Allen and Tyler Roberts) to second.
Cole Tengesdahl, 2013 U.P. Division 1 champion in the 100-meter dash (11.26), "looked good in the 55 (2nd, 7.02) and 200 (5th)."
Roberts was also pleased with the winning 3200 (Austin Stanchina, Lucas Jennings, Taylor Wickman, Allen, 9:00.59) and 800 relays (Quintin Pratt, Tengesdahl, Ferree and Roberts, 1:40.18) as well as the 1600 relay.
Ed Sexton and Dan Fleming stood out in hurdles. Fleming captured the 200 (28.93) and grabbed fifth in 55; Sexton was second in the 55 and third in the 200.
Jake Allen added to his "good night" with a fourth in the 800. Jennings tacked on a fourth in the 1600 run.
Kingsford's roster contains 11 seniors, 9 juniors, 16 sophomores and 7 freshman. Senior Ryan Camp was U.P. Division I pole vault runner-up while junior Tyler Roberts raced to second in the 400.
"Our upperclassman leadership has been great," coach Roberts said. "They get to practice every day and work hard."
The Flivvers compete Tuesday at the Superior Dome in Marquette. The first outdoor meet is Thursday, April 17, at Gladstone.
Roster follows:
Seniors - Jake Allen, Ryan Camp, Jonah Carlson, Eric Cole, Jacob Coughlin, John Cripe, Jack Glodowski, Lucas Jennings, Dylan Lawton, Ed Sexton, Cole Tengesdahl.
Juniors - Jaxson Ferree, Dan Fleming, Jimmy Galbraith, Ethan Metras, Quintin Pratt, Tyler Roberts, Austin Stanchina, Brody Sundquist, Taylor Wickman.
Sophomores - Wyatt Caylor, Kyle Henes, Mike Jamar, Brandon Kowalkowski, Brendan McGuire, Grant Meyer, Ben Moreau, Cole Moreau, Nick Pilot, Zack Povolo, Jorge Sanchez, Sam Santi, Jon Smeberg, Nick Smith, Leo Stelmaszek, Austin Taylor-Smith
Freshmen - Guy Barrows, Devin Bozile, Jacob Couillard, Tristan Duelge, Andrew Ferree, Owen Petschar, Trevor Roberts.

Arnaud Bernard, better known by his stage name Onra, is a French hip hop beatmaker based in Paris. His musical style has been described as worldly: a "chopped up set of RnB laden beats and electronically produced experiments laced with influences spanning the entire globe."[1]
Arnaud Bernard was born in 1981 in Germany to French parents, although his father has Vietnamese ancestry. He moved to France at the age of three and shortly after, lived between France and Côte d'Ivoire, where his mother was based for over twenty years. He discovered a passion for music at the age of ten and started making music at the age of nineteen. In 2000, he moved to Paris to pursue studies. He graduated from business school in 2006 with a degree in Marketing.
The first album was made in collaboration with producer and friend Quetzal (Al Quetz) in 2006, Tribute, a project inspired by Soul Music.
At the same time, he started collaborating with Byron the Aquarius, a keyboard player from Alabama, and released an album under the name Byron & Onra "The Big Payback" in 2007 on Japanese label Circulations. They also appeared on compilations such as Beat Dimensions and New Worlds by Jay Scarlett.
In 2006, he went to Rachel Song for the first time, and brought back over 30 Chinese and Vietnamese records from the 60's and 70's. He made a collection of 32 tracks with this unique material and named it, Chinoiseries, an album that blends Hip-Hop and Vietnamese Pop Music influences.
In 2008, he was selected to attend the Red Bull Music Academy.
In 2010, Onra released his latest LP Long Distance on All City Records. It features tracks with Olivier DaySoul, fellow French beatmaker Walter Mecca, and T3 from Slum Village, soul singer Reggie B and keyboard player Buddy Sativa.

Of all the appliances and devices that we use on a daily basis, few are as important and as heavily relied upon as our water heaters. It is easy to overlook the great importance of having instant access to hot water in our homes, as it has become such a commonplace expectation. However, imagine the impact that living without a water heater would have next time you do your laundry, take a shower or wash your dishes. Suddenly it becomes very clear just how integral this appliance really is. Determining when to stop repairing your water heater and to instead schedule a Memphis, TN hot water heater replacement can be difficult. Here are a few signs to look for that will inform you of the need for a new water heater from Hiller Plumbing, Heating & Cooling.
Frequent repair needs are a pretty obvious sign that you may benefit from a water heater replacement. It is important to remember that just because something can be fixed does not necessarily mean that it is worth fixing. If you are continually scheduling water heater repair services, it may be more economical to just invest in a new system. The savings you'll enjoy thanks to reduced service needs can help to offset the initial cost of the replacement.
Sometimes age alone is enough to justify a water heater replacement. The fact is that older systems were designed and manufactured at a point when modern efficiency standards were not attainable. This means that, even if your old hot water heater is operating at its peak performance levels, its efficiency may still pale in comparison to that of newer systems. If you have gotten a good run out of your existing water heater but are growing dissatisfied with its efficiency, consider upgrading with a new replacement system.
To learn more about signs that your hot water heater may need to be replaced, call Hiller Plumbing, Heating & Cooling. We are able to answer whatever questions you may have. Contact one of our Memphis, TN hot water heater replacement technicians today for more information. Get the reliable, efficient service you deserve from the water heater in your home.

That's the conclusion of a November 2012 FOUO survey of the Marine Corps intelligence community that came my way.
Roughly 50 percent of the 1,601 military and 206 civilian Marine Corps intel folks who responded to the survey said the service lagged behind the rest of the intelligence community when it comes to collaboration and information sharing. (About 16 percent of military and 76 percent of civilian Marine Corps intelligence community employees participated in the survey)
The Marines also scored low on job satisfaction, with only 49.9 percent satisfied in key areas, such as their involvement in decisions that affect their work and their ability to land a better job in the intelligence organization.
I know I'm going to get complaints about running an item slapped with the For Official Use Only label, but such designations are meaningless once things make their way to the open Internet, as this survey did.

There should be a fair amount of locals drafted between the Ducks and Beavers, and we'll have all the information right here at OregonLive.com and in The Oregonian as players get new homes. Stay tuned.
(By the way, our guess is that Wheaton and Poyer are the only ones who get drafted in the next few days, though defensive tackle Castro Masaniai could sneak in there, as could tight end Colby Prince. We expect those guys to at least be signed to free agent contracts in in the coming weeks if they're not drafted.)

Stress sneaking in here!!!! I have my final exam (bread and confectionary) on May 9th, tonight is our last lesson and we're going to start preparations for our final exam. We'll have to prepare a themed brunch for 8 persons in just about 5 hours on our exam :eek: , that's why we have to prepare beforehand. My theme will be adoption, as this year I'm FINALLY going to be adopted by my stepdad :D .
This is what I'll have to make for my final:
3 kinds of 'hard' bread rolls (typical for my country, they have a crispy crust)
3 kinds of soft bread rolls (brioche style)
2 kinds of danish pastries
puff pastry appetizer (1 kind)
Bavarois dessert
sponge cake
Tonight we'll be making the puff pastry, prepare the appetizers (so they only need to be baked off on the exam - they can be put in the freezer until then - I'm making mini-sausage rolls), the bavarois desserts (I'm making 2 layers in little glasses with some almond-biscuit in between layers, one layer strawberry mousse, the other "blanc manger", almond mousse) and bake the sponge cakes (these will go in the freezer too, so we only need to fill and finish off on the exam).

The cluster of arts and crafts booths on the south end of Main Street is an artisan group's response to regulatory roadblocks that kept them from selling their wares at the weekly farmers market down the street.
When Wynter Kaiser tried to apply for a craft booth at Adelante Mujeres' nonprofit farmers market, she was told all eight spots had been filled.
Kaiser, 31, said farmers market staff told her she could pay the non-refundable $20 application fee and take her chances on the 10-person waiting list. The stay-at-home mom wasn't willing to pay so much to sell a few braided rugs.
"It turned out we had a bunch of people who had the same issues," said Kaiser, a founding member of the group known as Artisans in the Grove. "Over a barbecue, some of us were talking, and we thought 'Let's have our own market.'"
The U.S. Department of Agriculture requires farmers markets that accept food stamps to be primarily agriculture-based, Forest Grove market director Gina Bell said. Adelante Mujeres' policy requires 75 percent of booths to sell agricultural goods, so space for crafters and artists is limited.
Kaiser was up until midnight that night, emailing city officials and business leaders. The next morning, she got a response from City Manager Michael Sykes.
"I did feel very strongly that if we had a number of artists that wanted to show their wares, it could be a real positive," Sykes said. "We try to help bring people and commerce downtown."
Within three days, Kaiser and her friends had drafted a business plan. The only problem: To get the necessary permits, they needed liability insurance. They sought help from the City Club of Forest Grove.
"The ball just started rolling from there," said Jarrod Sherwood, a member of the City Club's board of directors.
The club already had permits to use Main Street for its monthly celebration downtown. For $10 per month, the artisans could rent a First Wednesday booth.
Kaiser took the vision a step further and offered to manage a crafters' market in conjunction with First Wednesday.
Ten artisans sold wares at the market's June debut. It was pouring rain, but Kaiser said sales were still good.
Kaiser makes "rag rugs" from fabric scraps. Other artists include crocheters and seamstresses, quilters, graphic designers, a painter, woodworkers and a woman who makes sweaters with spun wool from her alpaca farm.
"We've got a whole smorgasbord," Kaiser said.
Artisans in the Grove will return for its second month during the July First Wednesday celebration next week. Kaiser said she expects at least 15 artisans to rent booths or show their wares in the Sampler's Veranda, a booth with work from multiple artists.
If the experiment is successful, Kaiser said the Artisans in the Grove might consider running a weekly market.
For more information about Artisans in the Grove or to apply for a booth, contact Kaiser at 503-975-4107 or email firstname.lastname@example.com.

Drinking It In: The Judges' Top 10
Vern Williams
When all was said and done, when the last wine was swirled, sniffed, tasted, and scored, we asked the judges of our first-ever Connecticut Wine Tasting to pick the best of the best. More than how the wines they sampled stacked up against one another, we wanted to know which ones knocked their socks off.
All four judges dutifully complied with our request to list their top three favorites out of all 84 wines. And while some of their favorites scored high enough across the board to win first, second or third place honors in their category, some of their choices were surprising. Two wines wowed more than one judge, so we ended up with a true Top Ten:
TOP TEN: The wine judges' personal best
1. Priam Late Harvest Riesling (dessert; chosen by three judges)
2. Sharpe Hill Vineyard Reserve Chardonnay (dry white; chosen by two judges)
3. Jones 2010 Pinot Gris (dry white)
4. Saltwater Farm 2009 Estate Chardonnay (dry white)
5. Miranda Cayuga White (other white)
6. Stonington 2008 Cabernet Franc (red)
7. Saltwater Farm 2008 Estate Cabernet Franc (red)
8. Sharpe Hill Cabernet Franc (red)
9. Sharpe Hill Select Late Harvest (dessert)
10. Priam Late Harvest Gewurztraminer (dessert)

In England and Ireland, they're called pubs, short for public houses, because they are often where the townsfolk gather not simply or even primarily to drink a pint, but to meet, mingle, converse and celebrate a sense of belonging.
In New Orleans, birthplace of the cocktail, drinking has always been a lot like that. Far from our reputation for drunkenness, which is often a byproduct of visitors on Bourbon Street, the locals here, like the British, take their bars seriously as places to celebrate community.
So whether you want to sip an authentic daiquiri -- with just the right splash of Barbancourt Rum -- at Herbsaint downtown on St. Charles Avenue, or gather the gang for a game of pool and a very, very cold Miller High Life at Mama's Place on a quiet street in Metairie, there's a place for you here.
This town has so many bars, it seems you could try a new one every night. For this second annual Lagniappe Bar Guide, that's exactly what our team did for weeks, heading out to Metairie for kitschy cocktail joints, finding pubs with cut-throat trivia games on the West Bank, sneaking into quiet spots to chat on the north shore and haunting see-and-be-seen swanky spots for a late-night drink Uptown and downtown.
Skim the guide to find happy hours, insider tips on what to order, when to go and who you're likely to be rubbing elbows with. We tell you where to get the quintessential New Orleans cocktails and which bartenders are mixing up fresh and wonderful concoctions -- or telling great stories -- behind the bar.
This is a town where restaurateurs, such as Ti Martin and Lally Brennan, are just as likely to release cocktail books as cookbooks, and bar owners take pride not only in the drinks they serve, but in the only-in-New-Orleans vibe they create.
With such an eclectic scene, you're sure to find the right spot for a sip, and a sense of belonging.
Check out Lagniappe's 90 Great Places to Drink - from the perfect place for a classic New Orleans cocktail to a hot-spot to dance all night. Let us tell you about great lounges, roadhouses and music halls. We'll help you answer that age-old question: Where should we go this weekend?

Tuesday night marked yet another installment of Fin de Cinema at Holocene, at which bands compose and perform an all-new score to soundtrack the film of the evening. This night's screening was of Cassandra Cat, a loopy and colorful Czech classic featuring a magical cat in sunglasses.
I arrived at Holocene to hear a very animated and punchy chorus of horns and strings as I made my way up the aisle past the bar and into the main room. I was just in time to catch the first act Typhoon. On screen was a parade scene which matched the lively merriment of the music. When casting a glance across the stage, it looked as though two members were absent. Still, the band filled out the stage, with frontman Kyle Morton standing mic-less, stage right and the string section seated on a bench, though still obscuring the subtitles. Not that it mattered. The dialog and text was mostly inessential due to the nature of the film and its experiments with color clearly being more of the focus.
After an intermission, Brainstorm took to the stage as a three-piece. The majority of the scenes that played on screen during their set involved a magician and trapeze artist in a red bodysuit. So it made perfect sense that guitarist, vocalist and tubaist Patrick Phillips was decked out in a tailcoat and top-hat alongside the female vocalist and keyboardist joining them on stage who looked to be wearing a red one-piece long-underwear. Keeping with its musical identity, Brainstorm's set was percussion heavy, with beats coming not only from the drum-kit. For its second number, the trio built a song from hand-claps which served as a segue into sleigh bells and then into singing. Drummer Adam Baz was the first to begin singing, then came Patrick and the unidentified female accompanist singing in tandem. The beat grew strong as the images on screen changed from that of a floating leaf to the gymnast in from of a black curtain/screen.
The final band of the evening was Tu Fawning, its four members split in two halves and positioned across from one and other on the stage, with the screen serving as a the dividing line. Frontwoman Corrina Repp received featured placement, seated with her guitar more frontward than the others. The positioning helped to create the impression that she was interacting with the film, and in actuality that is what it was. All the bands who performed had dedicated a chunk of time to not only creating new music inspiring by the film, but making sure that it was properly synced. Tu Fawning took care with each musical reverberation that accompanied the visuals overhead.
The night was a classy affair in which the film still retained its core. The movie was buoyed by the new music made for the evening rather than changed by it. For such a fleeting event—just one performance before all the effort fades off into the ether—it was so clear from every band how much care had been put into its creation. And the audience was impressive too: No annoying rambles disrupting any of the action. All the eyes and ears in vicinity seemed to be set firmly toward the stage, taking everything in.

Here is my calendar board:
We also use the date to practice tens and ones.
The ten more and ten less grid is centered around how many days in school. 91 today! Halfway done with the year. Wow!
The days of the week is self explanatory. After I added the black circles to the yellow background and laminated it, I added those self-sticking removable hooks to hold the day cards for yesterday, today and tomorrow. I just have little holes punched into the day cards.
After a couple weeks, I call on random kids to do the various parts. We discuss what's right, wrong and confusing.
Then we progress into all of the kiddos doing it on their own each day.
This is how:
When the kids come in each morning they grab a pen and a card.

March 9, 2006
DeKalb, Ill. A new exhibit opening soon at the Northern Illinois University Anthropology Museum will explore the different expressions of Islam in Southeast Asian cultures.
In light of the events unfolding around the world, there are a lot of stereotypes about the Islamic religion, said Nagasura Madale, guest curator of the exhibit. Our hope is people will leave the museum with a better understanding and appreciation of the rich tradition of Islam and of the cultural diversity among Muslims in Southeast Asia.
Islam in Southeast Asia: Common Themes, Diverse Expressions will open March 20 and run through the summer at the Anthropology Museum, located in the Stevens Building on campus. The museum is open from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. weekdays or by appointment.
Artifacts featured in the new exhibit will include religious or ceremonial clothing, brassware, banners, woodcarvings, paintings and Arabic writings.
The exhibit will trace the history of Islam, the life of Mohammed and the spread of Islam to Southeast Asia through trade. It also will closely examine the overlay of Islamic values in all Southeast Asian cultures, as well as the underlying foundation of folk traditions and customs that pre-date the rise of Islam.
The core elements of Islam are the same in Southeast Asia as in the Middle East, said Ann Wright-Parsons, museum director. But expressions of Islam vary widely across individual cultures. Each culturebe it Southern Thai, Malay, Indonesian or Filipinogives its own unique flavor to Islam.
We demonstrate this fusion between folk tradition and Islam in a number of artifacts, Madale added. For example, a long ceremonial cloth known as a lalansai is adorned with traditional Islamic symbols as well as a dragon.
In the arts, you see that Islam didn't completely eliminate folk traditions; there was a degree of accommodation, Madale said.
While the exhibit will feature artifacts from various Southeast Asian cultures, it will have a special focus on the guest curator's native Maranao people of Mindanao Island in the Philippines. Madale serves as vice president for research and extension at Capitol University there.
He is no stranger to NIU, however. Madale was a graduate student at Northern in 1978 under the Fulbright Enrichment Program. He also serves as a project coordinator for the ACCESS Philippines initiative. For the third consecutive spring, the initiative will bring a group of young people from the southern Philippines to NIU for an intensive one-month training institute promoting conflict resolution and interethnic and interfaith dialogue.
Every student who has participated in the institute has brought two cultural items to NIU, one for his or her host parents and one for the museum, Madale said. Over the years, the museum has acquired a number of artifacts this way.
Some of those items will be among those displayed in the current exhibit, although the majority of artifacts are from the museum's substantial Southeast Asian collection.
The museum exhibit is being funded through a major grant from the Illinois Humanities Council. Related mini-exhibits also are being made available free of charge for a one-month loan to libraries and communities. Libraries in Sycamore, Rockford and Belvidere and at Kishwaukee College are among those planning displays.
For more information, contact the NIU Anthropology Museum at (815) 753-0230.

I walk a lot (to and from the office) and I use it as a time to look around and see things. I have found that the ability to observe and understand the world around us is what truly brings meaning and understanding to what we are involved in. It might be opening your eyes to the needs of a friend or a neighbor. Finding a solution to the challenges that your clients and customers are facing. Ultimately, it is the ability to find the beauty in the world around us.
As a business owner, are you talking time to observe the things that are going on around you? Do you know how your business is doing? Do you understand the needs and concerns of your employees? Do you know what you can do to become even more successful? By taking the time to observe, you will be better able to succeed in accomplishing all that you would like to accomplish in your life.
One thing that is useful for many people is keeping a journal of your observations and using those notes to map out your goals and opportunities. Building a business is just that, a process of building. Map out your progress and enjoy the beauty of all around you!
