Sylvan Elementary turns 50
Generations came to party on Friday night

Hundreds of schoolchildren and parents came to blow out the candles and make a wish for Sylvania's Sylvan Elementary as it celebrated its 50th birthday Friday night.
The gym was decked out in the school colors, green and yellow. It was filled with anxious children and smiling parents for a dance party in celebration of the school's golden anniversary. Sylvan opened its doors in the 1963-1964 school year.

When alumni recall their early education at the school, they always mention that its setting in a small neighborhood made all difference.
"I love Sylvan," said Eric Addington, 41, who graduated in the mid-1980s. When he looked for a school for his two children, Allison, 9, and Drew, 7, only Sylvan made the list.
"It's in a neighborhood, and a lot of people in Sylvania don't know where it's at. It's a hidden gem," he declared.
"There were only two neighborhoods that fed into it," Mr. Addington said, recalling his days walking to school and meeting up with school friends on the way.
The school, at 4830 Wickford Rd., is situated in a cluster of residential streets between the main streets of Holland-Sylvania Avenue and McCord Road. Sylvan was originally K-6, and Mr. Addington was part of a sixth-grade graduating class.
When Timberstone Junior High School opened in the 1990s, the elementary school became kindergarten to fifth grade.
In 2010, Sylvan expanded its kindergarten schedule from half days to full days, Principal John Duwve said.

Ron Carroll, 54, who works in the school's maintenance department, was four years old when he started at Sylvan in 1965. "As a little kid, it seemed a lot bigger," he recalled, adding that the school has not changed much since.
The building was, however, expanded twice. In 1992, classroom space was added. In 2010, a new gym, music room, and classrooms were built. That took away some of the recess playgrounds. Mr. Carroll recalled three separate playgrounds for different grades.
Over the years teachers seem to have won students' hearts.
"Teachers really took the time with the students, and they still have a tradition of working with the kids ... Whatever their strengths are, the teachers are behind the child's enthusiasm," said Kelly Ressler, 43, a 1983 graduate who has two children at Sylvan.
On Friday, a group of fifth-grade girls dressed in party dresses for the special occasion — Haley McClain, 10, Torie Davis, 11, Kace Baumhower, 10, and Lizzy Zucal, 11 — responded in unison that it's the teachers who make Sylvan the best.
Some say the community feel and teacher-student relationships are enhanced because students still walk to school.
"It's a small neighborhood school, and you see people walking to school or events," said third-grade teacher Ruthann Manders, who has been at Sylvan more than 22 years.
She and fifth-grade teacher Kit Moore, who started in 1986, agreed that a tight-knit atmosphere has endured at Sylvan over the years.

What are coliform bacteria?
Coliform bacteria are organisms that are present in the environment and in the feces of all warm-blooded animals and humans. Coliform bacteria will not likely cause illness. However, their presence in drinking water indicates that disease-causing organisms (pathogens) could be in the water system. Most pathogens that can contaminate water supplies come from the feces of humans or animals. Testing drinking water for all possible pathogens is complex, time-consuming, and expensive. It is relatively easy and inexpensive to test for coliform bacteria. If coliform bacteria are found in a water sample, water system operators work to find the source of contamination and restore safe drinking water. There are three different groups of coliform bacteria; each has a different level of risk.
Total coliform, fecal coliform, and E. coli
Total coliform, fecal coliform, and E. coli are all indicators of drinking water quality. The total coliform group is a large collection of different kinds of bacteria. Fecal coliforms are types of total coliform that mostly exist in feces. E. coli is a sub-group of fecal coliform. When a water sample is sent to a lab, it is tested for total coliform. If total coliform is present, the sample will also be tested for either fecal coliform or E. coli, depending on the lab testing method.
Total coliform bacteria are commonly found in the environment (e.g., soil or vegetation) and are generally harmless. If only total coliform bacteria are detected in drinking water, the source is probably environmental. Fecal contamination is not likely. However, if environmental contamination can enter the system, there may also be a way for pathogens to enter the system. Therefore, it is important to find the source and resolve the problem.
Fecal coliform bacteria are a sub-group of total coliform bacteria. They appear in great quantities in the intestines and feces of people and animals. The presence of fecal coliform in a drinking water sample often indicates recent fecal contamination » meaning that there is a greater risk that pathogens are present than if only total coliform bacteria is detected.
E. coli is a sub-group of the fecal coliform group. Most E. coli bacteria are harmless and are found in great quantities in the intestines of people and warm-blooded animals. Some strains, however, can cause illness. The presence of E. coli in a drinking water sample almost always indicates recent fecal contamination » meaning there is a greater risk that pathogens are present.
A note about E. coli: E. coli outbreaks receive much media coverage. Most outbreaks have been caused by a specific strain of E. coli bacteria known as E. coli O157:H7. When a drinking water sample is reported as "E. coli present" it does not mean that this dangerous strain is present and in fact, it is probably not present. However, it does indicate recent fecal contamination. Boiling or treating contaminated drinking water with a disinfectant destroys all forms of E. coli, including O157:H7.

National School Breakfast Week
Among the sundry pearls of wisdom passed down the ages, one treasured favorite has dubbed breakfast "the most important meal of the day." In establishing and maintaining wellness, grandmother's advice is just as true and relevant today as it was in our younger years.
There is a simple reason that these storied words of guidance have stood the test of time: we starve our bodies during sleep, so that in the morning, our need for nutrition is that much greater. Your liver works hard overnight, continually pouring stored energy into the blood to keep your organs healthy. After eight to twelve hours of such toil, your liver needs to be fed, too!
In order to remind schools, parents and children of the importance of starting the day with a healthy meal, the School Nutrition Association established National School Breakfast Week in 1989. The week helps to emphasize nutrition plans such as the School Breakfast Program. This year, National School Breakfast Week begins on March 5th and runs through March 9th.
Each year, the School Nutrition Association puts together a theme which helps to raise awareness of the week. There is a great theme for 2007, entitled "A World of School Breakfasts." Online literature includes links to traditional breakfast recipes from diverse countries such as Italy, China, Egypt, and Australia. Also included is intriguing information with regard to dining customs from around the world.
For the sake of our own health and for that of our children, we should find time next week to get in the habit of starting each day with a wholesome breakfast – and maybe, try something new in the process.

The last ruler of the legendary Aztec Empire is being thrust into the spotlight at the British Museum, in a spectacular show about the ruler vanquished by the Spanish conquistadores in the 16th century.
"Moctezuma: Aztec Ruler", due to open on September 24, aims to "examine the histories that are not taught to us, from a non-Eurocentric point of view," said museum chief Neil MacGregor.
"No-one has ever looked at Moctezuma as an emperor, we see him as a victim of Cortes but he was a very successful and great emperor too," he told AFP, at a press viewing for the show this week.
Moctezuma II, who reigned in what is modern day Mexico from 1502-1520, was regarded by his subjects as semi-divine, but was forced to cede his empire by the invading Spanish conquistadores.
Objects from Mexico and Europe will be on display, most for the first time in Britain, including the famous heavy stone monument known as the Teocalli of Sacred Warfare.
The exhibition also comes ahead of the anniversaries next year of Mexico's independence in 1810, and the Mexican Revolution of 1910.
MacGregor added that "indigenous traditions are reviving and very strong today and we need to rethink the way Mexican history has been taught to us, which has only been done through Spain."
"The artistic achievements of the Aztecs astonished the Spanish and rest of the world, and have continued to wield a huge influence on Mexican art," he said.
"Moctezuma is the last in our series on great rulers and their legacies and presents perhaps one of the most fascinating examples of implosion of power and the clash of civilisations."

A miraculous shrine near Lur, France, containing a crypt (Sainte Chapelle ) which tradition dates back to an early period. Archeological finds, inscriptions, and the records left by antiquaries give evidence that this was once the site of a Roman colony and a station termed in ancient itineraries, Alaunium (founded 150 B.C.). Situated as it was on a Roman road connecting cities which are believed to have been evangelized at an early period, Alaunium probably received the Faith at the same time. There is an ancient tradition to the effect that one of the immediate disciples of Christ erected an oratory here in honour of the Mother of God, and that it took the name Alaunium, later contracted into Aulun. Though several chapels were built on this site and destroyed, an ancient tablet survived all calamities. On the occasion of a cure wrought before this tablet (2 August, 1665) a choir of angels, it is said, was heard singing; on the repetition of the marvel the following year the name of the shrine was changed to Our Lady of Angels, and it was placed in charge of the Recollect Fathers of St Francis. In 1752 Bishop Lafiteau of Sisteron instituted the feast of the Relatives of Mary, making this sanctuary a centre of the devotion. In 1791 the religious were expelled, and the church despoiled. On the reopening of the churches the pilgrimages recommenced, and still continue. The most important of them takes place on 2 August.
The Catholic Encyclopedia is the most comprehensive resource on Catholic teaching, history, and information ever gathered in all of human history. This easy-to-search online version was originally printed between 1907 and 1912 in fifteen hard copy volumes.
Designed to present its readers with the full body of Catholic teaching, the Encyclopedia contains not only precise statements of what the Church has defined, but also an impartial record of different views of acknowledged authority on all disputed questions, national, political or factional. In the determination of the truth the most recent and acknowledged scientific methods are employed, and the results of the latest research in theology, philosophy, history, apologetics, archaeology, and other sciences are given careful consideration.
No one who is interested in human history, past and present, can ignore the Catholic Church, either as an institution which has been the central figure in the civilized world for nearly two thousand years, decisively affecting its destinies, religious, literary, scientific, social and political, or as an existing power whose influence and activity extend to every part of the globe. In the past century the Church has grown both extensively and intensively among English-speaking peoples. Their living interests demand that they should have the means of informing themselves about this vast institution, which, whether they are Catholics or not, affects their fortunes and their destiny.

Two people died in an accident with an Amtrak train in an isolated area of Kenner Tuesday afternoon near the St. Charles Parish line, authorities said. An Amtrak passenger train hit an SUV trying to cross the track on a private shell road about three-fourths of a mile from Airline Drive, said Lt. Wayne McInnis, Kenner Police Department spokesman.
The train pushed the SUV into a ditch parallel to the tracks.
The road is a shell road owned by the East Jefferson Levee District. Only levee district workers, airport employees and private contractors are allowed on the road, said McInnis.
Police are trying to figure out why the SUV was on the road. "This is not open to the public," McInnis said.
There are signs indicating a railroad crossing at the intersection, but no crossing arm. McInnis said the train sounded its siren as it crossed the intersection.
The accident happened at the CN Railroad tracks at the St. Charles Parish line, just off Airline Highway.
The two people inside the SUV were pronounced dead at the scene, McInnis said. Their identities are unknown.
Sixty-three passengers and eight crew members were on the Amtrak train that was headed into New Orleans from Chicago. The train is to resume its trip into New Orleans. No one on the train was injured, McInnis said.

UPDATE: O'Brien Schofield failed his physical and his deal with the Giants is off.
Linebacker O'Brien Schofield recently won a Super Bowl with the Seattle Seahawks, he spent the first seasons of his NFL career with the Arizona Cardinals and has 11.5 careers sacks.
But here are five things that you may not have known about the latest addition to the Giants linebacker corps:
1. He had a gift for mime dancing.
That's a style of worship performed in some African-American churches in which
dancers wordlessly interpret the lyrics of religious songs, Chicago Tribune's John Keilman wrote in a story that ran before last month's Super Bowl:
When O'Brien stood before the congregation at Zion's Christian Faith Fellowship Church, he was particularly effective at commanding attention.
"He's an incredible athlete, always very physical," recalled Bishop James Logan. "He has a strong physical presence that would really make the mime, the illustration, very dynamic. It was always very powerful when he would minister."
2. Football saved him from military school.
Schofield apparently hit a rough spot during his sophomore year at North Chicago Community High School. His father warned if he didn't get things together, he'd be sent to military school, according to Keilman.
Schofield's solution: football.
His cousins, defensive end Vonnie Holliday and receiver Bobby Engram, had played in the NFL, so it became a natural fit.
"O'Brien was one of these guys where I didn't know where to put him on the field," Schofield's high school coach, Mike Grenda, told the newspaper. "I decided to use his
speed on the outside (of the defensive line). O'Brien was stronger than a lot of kids, plus he had that speed, so he was too quick for those offensive linemen. Before you know it, he'd be in the backfield."
3. He lost a younger brother in a drowning accident.
Schofield's 19-year-old brother, Joshua, died at a beach near Zion, Ill., in 2007. Schofield, who is the eldest of five children, was 20 at the time and was at the University of Wisconsin working on conditioning.
"It was rough," Schofield told the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel's Jeff Potrykus. "He was at the beach with some friends. The lifeguard came over and told them to get out of the water because the (rip) current was getting rough. So he started to swim to the shore, but two of his friends got pulled back out.
"So he went back in and helped them get back. But when he was swimming back, a big wave crashed over him and he never came back to the surface. They found his body about 150 feet from the shore."
4. He didn't always take off-season training seriously.
Wisconsin strength and conditioning coordinator Ben Herbert apparently didn't feel Schofield was putting in enough work after the season was over.
Per the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel, Herbert asked some questions of Schofield:
"Do you want to be held to a very high standard? Do you want to be great? If no, that's fine. If the answer is yes, well, then I'm going to hold that bar higher than it's ever been
Schofield said yes, and he has needed little motivation after that.
5. The Arizona Cardinals were in a hurry to cut Schofield last July.
"That's fresh, that's very fresh," Schofield told Kent Somers of AZCentral.com. "They cut me on the field. I've always had a chip on my shoulder, and that's going to carry me through the rest of my career and life."

A. Scott Koeze, age 74, died June 19, 2011, at his home outside of Leland, Michigan. The cause of death was pancreatic cancer.
He is survived by his loving wife of 51 years, Ruth Koeze; his brother, David Koeze of Grand Rapids, Michigan, his twin brother, Robert Koeze of Charlottesville, Virginia; his children and their spouses, Kristin and Ryan Sterkenburg of Leland, Michigan, Cynthia Koeze and Jerald Bell of Omena, Michigan, and Jeffrey and Katharine Koeze of Grand Rapids Michigan; and his four grandchildren.
He was preceded in death by his parents, Albert and Ella Koeze, his brother, Thomas Koeze of London, England, and his sister, MaryBeth Koeze of Chelsea, Michigan.
Scott graduated from Wyoming Park High School and the University of Miami. Following graduation he returned to Grand Rapids to join his father in the family business, Koeze Company, where he worked supervising manufacturing. When his father died suddenly in 1966, Scott was thrust into the role of running the business, a task for which he was virtually unprepared, confessing "until my Dad died I'd never even set foot in the office."
When he did enter the office, he learned that the company was essentially bankrupt. Notwithstanding the obstacles, he soon built Koeze Company into a significant national manufacturer of peanut butter and specialty nuts.
Scott retired in 1997 and poured his energy into running his northern Michigan ranch. From childhood he had a special love of horses, and he bred first Paso Fino and then Friesian horses on the ranch. He also was an avid collector of cowboy art and western antiques. Nearly every morning he could be found in a Leelanau County coffee shop preparing for ranch work over coffee with his friend and sidekick, Panta Leon.
Scott was a quiet and generous supporter of many charities, including Grand Valley State University, where his mother, Ella Koeze, served as a founding member of the university's governing board.

How can I say thanks
for the things You have done for me?
Things so undeserved,

let it go to Calvary.

Scenes from Irene
Two days after Hurricane Irene, Henrico residents were displaying not only their ingenuity, but their sense of humor in the aftermath of the storm. The Henrico Citizen visited neighborhoods in the particularly hard-hit Tuckahoe District Monday and found widespread damage but positive attitudes as well.
On Sweetbriar Road in Westham, near the University of Richmond, the owner of a home partially collapsed by the weight of a huge fallen tree displays the sign, "Scratch and Dent Sale."
On Lakewood Drive in Westham (above), F. Claiborne ("Jay") Johnston, Jr., brought his car to a stop next to a reporter taking pictures and said jokingly, "I hope you're my adjuster!"
Although a crew was busily at work on their damaged roof – and a crushed car sat in the driveway – Johnston and his wife Carolyn considered themselves "extremely lucky."
They heard their tree come down at 3:15 p.m. Saturday, as Johnston was upstairs and his wife was downstairs.
"It was like a hand grenade going off," said Johnston. He speculated that the noise was the result of the tree hitting his wife's car, which appeared to take most of the blow.
"It's almost like the tree forked when it hit the house," he said, tracing the paths of the two tree-top pieces.
The glancing blow left a small hole in the corner of his roof ("You could go up in the attic and see daylight") but there was no water damage and not a single broken window.
"It went down one side of the house and killed the crepe myrtle and holly in the front. But hell, we can live with that."
With a smile, Johnston noted that his wife was inclined to look at the bright side of the destruction as well. He quoted her reaction upon seeing her clobbered automobile as a delighted, "I get a new car!"
Three trees fell within a half-block radius on Lakewood Drive; one of them totaled a Henrico County Department of Public Works truck that had responded to an earlier call, according to Henrico Fire spokesman Chris Buehren. It was the only damage to a county vehicle reported from the storm.
After seeing the damaged truck, Johnston marveled, "It was crushed! If those guys had been in it...."
Johnston's neighbor on Lakewood, Julie Black, lost her landscaping and a flower bed when county crews dragged a neighbor's hickory tree off her lot in order to clear the street.
"They have a lot of nuts!" she said of hickory trees, tossing handfuls into the pile of debris she had collected. "You never realize it until they fall."
But Black also considered herself fortunate.
Home from her job at the darkened downtown offices of the Virginia Capital Trail Foundation, Black said Irene was much kinder than Hurricane Isabel, which dropped a tree on her home in 2003.
She offered nothing but praise for Dominion Power and the county utility crews, who responded quickly after both storms.
"A lot of people complain about Dominion Power," she said, "but I always defend them."
She waved to a neighbor driving by, and the neighbor opened her window to tell Black excitedly, "Dominion [Power] is here!"
As she drove off, the neighbor called out with a laugh, "We must have someone powerful in the neighborhood!"
A beach ball lies squashed – but remarkably, still inflated – between an uprooted tree and a now undulating fence on Glendale Road (above). Nearby, a BBQ grill tilts dangerously off kilter.
On Cedarbrooke Lane off Ridge Road (above), a fallen tree lies sprawled across the front yard.

Binghamton, NY (WBNG Binghamton) Republican mayoral candidate Rich David said he feels confident he and his team will be celebrating a win Tuesday night.
The Binghamton candidate stepped into the senior living center at 45 Exchange St. just after 10 a.m.
David said he got an early start because he will be working the rest of the day, encouraging people to vote.
After he cast his ballot, the candidate said he's confident he will be celebrating tonight.
"I feel very good actually because I know that I've put a lot of work in, in regard to this campaign," David said. "I know I've had many, many dedicated volunteers. I've also done everything from collecting signatures to making phone calls. This has really been a team effort."
David added he believes he will be elected because the issues he's been advocating to change are bi-partisan.

Assange: Sweden likely to 'drop case' against me
31 Aug 2012, 10:41
Published: 31 Aug 2012 10:41 GMT+02:00
- Ecuador doubts a fair US trial for Assange (30 Aug 12)
- Minister: OAS 'not angry' at Sweden over Assange (29 Aug 12)
- OAS urges 'dialogue' over Assange case (25 Aug 12)
Assange took shelter in the embassy in June after exhausting all appeals against extradition to Sweden, where he is wanted for questioning over sexual assault allegations. Earlier this month Ecuador granted him asylum.
Assange has denied any wrongdoing and said he fears Sweden will hand him over to the United States, where he could face prosecution over the release of a trove of leaked Iraq and Afghanistan war reports and diplomatic cables.
"I believe this will be resolved in six to 12 months," the 41-year-old Australian said in an interview with Ecuadoran television held inside the embassy and broadcast in dubbed-over Spanish.
"The situation will be resolved either through diplomacy or an unusual event in the world that no one can predict, like a war against Iran, the election in the United States, or the Swedish government dropping the case," he said.
"I expect the last scenario is the most likely one," he added, according to the Spanish translation.
Earlier this week, Ecuador's leftist President Rafael Correa said the case could take years to resolve and depended on London and Stockholm.
He said there were three ways to resolve the diplomatic impasse: either Britain and Sweden could guarantee that Assange won't be sent to a third country, Swedish prosecutors could question him in the Ecuadoran embassy, or British authorities could allow him to leave without arresting him.

Don't let it get away!
Keep track of the stocks that matter to you.
Help yourself with the Fool's FREE and easy new watchlist service today.
One of the more interesting presentations during this week's Web 2.0 Summit in California came from a rare U.S. appearance by Baidu (Nasdaq: BIDU ) CEO Robin Li.
Baidu has no intention of entering our market anytime soon. It has no interest in taking on Google (Nasdaq: GOOG ) and Microsoft's (Nasdaq: MSFT ) Bing in alphabet-based language search. Its strength lies entirely in character-driven search, where it commands roughly two-thirds of all searches in China. It entered Japan in 2008, and is eyeing other Asian markets, but that's pretty much it for now.
Li even began by pointing out that this was his first time on stage for an interview in a stateside industry conference. He's a rock star back home, complete with a traveling fan club, but he's relatively unknown here.
So what exactly is Li doing here?
Well, it doesn't hurt that Baidu's $38 billion market cap makes it as big as eBay (Nasdaq: EBAY ) . Stateside investors are clearly interested in Baidu as an investment, even if they may never unearth the need to use the portal itself.
Li is here to explain why his company's stock may not be as overvalued as pundits think.
Forever climbing the great wall of valuation worry
Baidu isn't cheap, but plenty of naysayers have skewered its valuation at much lower price points, only to wind up eating crow.
Baidu's heady growth and chunky margins make it a compelling speedster today, but it's really far away from its ultimate finish line.
Less than a third of China is currently online, and Li estimates that Baidu reaches 99% of those who are. Work the simple division on China's 1.3 billion residents, and you'll find that Baidu already reaches more people in China than the entire U.S. population.
Obviously, there are compelling reasons why Google -- with a thinner share of the stateside market than Baidu's mastery of China -- commands a market cap five times greater than Baidu's. Big G is a global player; Baidu is still playing regional ball. Advertisers also spend far more on marketing through Google, reaching out to consumers who -- for now -- have far more to spend. It's a wide gap, though China's economy is huffing and puffing at a brisk pace to make up the difference.
Waiting is not the hardest part
How long will it take for China's Internet penetration rate to approach that of established markets? We may not be as far away as you think.
Some bears misperceive China as a country of bike-pedaling farmers in rural areas with no inherent need for connectivity. Reality is far more refreshing. As Li points out, there are roughly 800 million mobile phone users in China -- or double the number of folks online.
For those scoring at home, China Mobile (NYSE: CHL ) commands a larger market cap than Google, and even more than domestic wireless leaders AT&T (NYSE: T ) and Verizon (NYSE: VZ ) . Can you fathom half of this country's mobile phone owners not having Web access?
However, most of these handsets are rudimentary 2G devices that do little more than make calls and exchange text messages. It will take some time before China's citizenry can embrace full-fledged smartphones and consistent connectivity.
It will happen, though. Short of China taking a step toward more restrictive access -- something that can obviously happen, but remains highly unlikely now that all eyes are on the world's most populous nation -- China will catch up.
Baidu, naturally, will catch up, too.
It's just getting started, regardless of what today's valuation metrics may indicate.
Do you think Baidu is a good buy at this point? Share your thoughts in the comments box below.

Pancit Bihon Recipe (Filipino Fried Rice Noodles)
Pancit Bihon (Filipino Fried Rice Noodles) recipe – This classic Filipino noodle dish is relatively easy to make and can be put together using simple ingredients. Consider this a basic recipe to build on.
8 ounces "Excellent" brand rice sticks
2-3 pieces chicken thighs or drumsticks
1 small green cabbage (shredded in 1/2 inch pieces)
2-3 medium carrots (either shredded or chopped thinly crosswise)
1 small onion (finely chopped)
2 cloves garlic (minced)
1/2 pound shrimp (shelled and deveined)
1 tablespoon canola oil
2 tablespoons dark soy sauce
1 tablespoon fish sauce (optional, add 1 tablespoon soy sauce if not adding fish sauce)
Freshly ground black pepper
Heat a large wok to medium-high heat. Add canola oil. Stir fry the garlic and onions until the onions turn clear. Be careful not to burn the garlic. Add the shredded chicken pieces and shrimp (if using). Once the shrimp turns pink, add cabbage and carrots. Lightly stir fry 2-3 minutes. Pour the mixture onto a bowl and set aside.
Pour the chicken stock into the heated wok. Once it starts boiling, turn the heat down to medium. Add rice sticks, soy sauce, and fish sauce. Boil for another 5 minutes or so until there is approximately 1/4 cup stock left. Add the meat mixture back into the wok. Lightly stir fry until all the liquid has evaporated. Add freshly ground pepper to taste.
Garnish with a lemon wedge, chopped scallions, and chili garlic oil.
I have been so busy as of late. My sister and nephew are in town since before Christmas and every day has been fun since they got here—eating out, shopping, sightseeing, and showing them around. I haven't had much time to get online and cook, other than cooking and shooting for my cookbook (details to follow soon!). Anyway, today, I have a guest blogger Charlotte from Javafoto here with a pancit recipe. I love pancit and am so glad Charlotte—a Filipino born and raised in Manila but now lives in Portland, Oregon—came to my rescue. Please welcome Javafoto to Rasa Malaysia and let's all learn more about Filipino food, an interesting and delicious Asian cuisine that I resolve to explore further. Enjoy!
Pancit literally means noodles in Filipino, so just like other Asian cuisines there are several variations of it around the Philippines. Growing up in Manila, we always celebrated birthdays at home with some kind of pancit. "Pampahaba ng buhay (for long life)", my lola (grandmother) would say. My favorite is the pancit bihon. This classic Filipino noodle dish is relatively easy to make and can be put together using simple ingredients.
Consider this a basic recipe to build on. Some variations include the addition of Chinese sausage, chorizo, or simply vegetarian. When short on time, store-bought chicken stock will work fine. I prefer an organic stock or at least one that is minimally processed and low in sodium. This pancit recipe assumes homemade stock with no salt added. Adjust flavorings if using store-bought chicken stock.
Pancit bihon goes well with lumpiang shanghai and steamed rice. Enjoy!

Four Saginaw Spirit players are ranked on NHL Central Scouting's preliminary rankings for the 2011 NHL draft, released today.
Spirit forward Brandon Saad was ranked the second-best draft eligible OHL skater, behind only Kitchener's Gabriel Landeskog. Saad's ranking is the highest a Spirit player has ever received.
Vincent Trocheck was ranked as the fifth-best skater, and Anthony Camara was listed as the 22nd-best skater.
Spirit goalie Tadeas Galansky was ranked as the fifth-best eligible goalie.
NHL.com breaks down the list, including the possibility of Saad being the first American taken in the June draft:
"Brandon has very good speed and agility and that makes him dangerous," Central Scouting's Chris Edwards told NHL.com. "He's solid on his skates and fights through checks very well. He plays a solid two-way game and is very responsible defensively. It is early in the year, but at this point, I think Brandon will hear his name called early on Friday night in Minnesota (at the Entry Draft)."

U.S. stocks remained lower, after the Standard & Poor's 500 Index climbed to a record yesterday, after reports showed an unexpected drop in construction spending and slower growth in manufacturing.
The S&P 500 fell 0.3 percent to 1,593.27 at 10:03 a.m. in New York. Stocks opened lower as a report showed weaker-than- forecast growth in private payrolls and investors awaited a policy statement from the Federal Reserve
Construction spending decreased 1.7 percent to a $856.7 billion annual rate, the least since August, the Commerce Department reported today in Washington. The median forecast of 46 economists surveyed by Bloomberg called for a 0.6 percent rise. Public projects dropped by 4.1 percent, the biggest decrease since March 2002. The Institute for Supply Management's factory index fell to 50.7 in April from the prior month's 51.3, the Tempe, Arizona-based group said today.
The S&P 500 climbed 0.3 percent to a record high of 1,597.57 yesterday as consumer confidence jumped and investors bet central banks around the world will continue their efforts to stimulate the economy. The bull market in U.S. equities has entered its fifth year, surging 136 percent from a 12-year low in 2009, driven by better-than-estimated corporate earnings and three rounds of bond purchases by the Fed.
The Federal Open Market Committee releases its statement at 2 p.m. in Washington following a two-day meeting. None of the 47 economists in a Bloomberg News survey conducted from April 25 to April 29 forecast that the central bank will change the pace of its bond-purchase program this month.
Fed Plans
Chairman Ben S. Bernanke will probably reduce the Federal Reserve's monthly bond buying in the fourth quarter to $50 billion from $85 billion, economists said in a Bloomberg survey. The central bank will probably leave its benchmark interest rate unchanged at 0.25 percent following the meeting.
The ECB announces its monthly interest-rate decision tomorrow.
Companies added fewer workers than forecast in April, according to figures from ADP Research Institute. The 119,000 increase in payrolls, the smallest since September, followed a revised 131,000 gain in March that was less than initially estimated, data from ADP showed today. The median forecast of 37 economists surveyed by Bloomberg projected a 150,000 advance.
"The ADP report is somewhat disappointing because it's just further evidence of slowdown," Tom Wirth, who helps manage $1.6 billion as senior investment officer for Chemung Canal Trust Co., in Elmira, New York, said in a telephone interview.
The Labor Department publishes its jobs and unemployment report on Friday. Combined payrolls for companies and government agencies increased by 148,000 workers in April after rising 88,000 in March, according to a survey of economists by Bloomberg.
Investors are also watching corporate earnings today. Of the 340 companies in the S&P 500 that have reported so far, 73 percent exceeded analysts' predictions, data compiled by Bloomberg show. Profit at S&P 500 companies rose 1.1 percent in the first three months of the year, according to analysts' projections compiled by Bloomberg.

I purchased these to fill a space in my dining room. They are larger than I expected but filled the area perfectly. The warm colors accent my light brown walls. Shipped quickly and packed well.
I have painted my kitchen a light yellow and placed the art set in place and with the yellow behind the pictures they are beautiful. So cheerful. I definitely would recommend these.
I needed something for a large wall in our kitchen. These fit the bill and are perfect! I was hoping that for the price, the quality would match. Very happy with the purschase.
I like books and I like flowers. This set of pictures is unusual for the fact that it is open and shows the wall behind the arrangement, giving it a 3-D effect. The flowers can be slightly rearranged. It looks very nice in my office where I also have books and flowers in the wallpaper border.
These are beautiful and was more than I expected
for metal art it doesn't hang flat against the wall

The Fort Dodge Community School District board approved Wednesday a budget estimate for the 2013-14 school year.
"School revenues and other sources is $51,191, 000 and total expenditures are $50,366,000 for a total tax rate proposed of 15.45853," Brandon Hansel, FDCSD director of financial services, said. "That's roughly 3 percent less than where it stands right now."
The proposed budget, Hansel said, is "an aggregate sum of all of our funds put together."
"It has relative value to us in terms of how we govern our budget," he said. "It's main purpose is to comply with our statutory requirement, establish the maximum level of district spending and direct the county auditor to levy property taxes on our behalf."
According to Doug Van Zyl, FDCSD superintendent, the district needs to make budget reductions and savings of nearly $2 million for the next school year.
General areas have already been investigated, including early retirement at the middle school and high school levels.
"We believe we're going to be able to reduce about $945,000 out of the middle school, high school early retirement component," he said.
Another $215,000 can be saved at the elementary level, and $130,000 at the administrative level, for a total of about $1.3 million in savings.
Changes to funding formulas will also mean more dollars to the district, Van Zyl said, including supplemental sharing. Teaching would be done with other districts through the Iowa Communications Network for an increase of $200,000.
A further $190,000 would be saved from state changes to spending through the Prairie Lakes Area Education Agency.
There are two areas, though, where there will be a dip in revenue. There will be $34,000 less next year for preschool and at-risk dollars, at about $1.2 to $1.4 million yearly, will likely be reduced.
According to Van Zyl, expenditures are being looked at.
"Our administrators are working very hard not to expend dollars if they really felt it wasn't necessarily a need right now," he said. "We believe that we can save about $473,000, possibly a little more, by not expending dollars this year."
These savings and reductions amount to about $2 million, Van Zyl said. Other factors, though, remain before the budget is finalized. Settlements have not been considered yet, as they have not been completed. The state has not made a decision on allowable growth. And the impact of proposed state education reforms has not been determined.
"I feel our administrators, those folks work very hard to look at what they can do to try to maintain programs and positions, but I think we're also up front in telling you from the beginning, this does not go without some pain being involved," Van Zyl said.
This is the second year there will be $2 million in reductions. Last school year, the district was faced with a $1.7 million shortfall, met with reductions in staff and by restructuring.
"Sooner or later, those things can become impactful," Van Zyl said.
No actions have been taken yet and the budget has not yet been finalized.
A public hearing on the budget will be held April 1, 6 p.m. at the district administration building at 104 S. 17th St.

The Canadian economy keeps beating expectations and most of the industrialized world in its ability to create jobs.
But market reaction was muted at best Friday as U.S. jobs numbers were dismal and a new wrinkle in the European sovereign debt crisis cast a cloud over global growth, calling into question just how far ahead of its peers Canada's economy can remain.
The Canadian economy seems very far ahead of its peers now - particularly in the repairing of its labour market - with Friday's report that 24,700 new jobs were added in May and an astounding 67,300 full-time jobs, most of them from employers and in the private sector.
With such underlying strong numbers, the news that 28,000 self-employed and 42,500 part-time jobs vanished was interpreted as an indicator of underlying strength - employers turning part-timers into full-timers and the involuntarily self-employed finding a regular paycheque.
"This is very, very solid. There's no other way to characterize it after a record April," said economist Benjamin Reitzes of BMO Capital Markets.
"It just highlights the domestic strength in the Canadian economy despite all the stuff going on all over the world, the weakness in financial markets and continued worries out of Europe."
More impressive is that the fresh data is part of an ongoing pattern. Canada has added 310,000 jobs since July and 215,000 since the beginning of the year.
Compare that to Europe, which is in full-fledged crisis and was confronted with another problem Friday after a spokesman for Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban was quoted as saying the nation's economy was in a "grave situation."
Or the U.S., which has yet to make a dent in the 8.5 million jobs lost during the recession and issued another disappointing jobs report for May, showing that while 431,000 net workers were added, almost all were temporary census takers.
Those two negative factors were blamed for steep losses in North American markets Friday, and the Canadian dollar taking another nosedive of more than a cent to below the 95-cent US level in midday trading.
While the market reaction may appear counterintuitive, particularly as regards the loonie, analysts said investors were registering future concerns about how Canada can fare in what is becoming a darkening global picture.
"Canada can't decouple from the U.S. and Europe for long," said Brian Bethune, IHS Global Insight's Canadian chief economist.
"Canada has to sleep in the same bed as the U.S. and to presume there can be stronger growth sustained in Canada than the U.S. is just a pipe dream."
Bethune said there were already signs of braking in the fact May's jobs data contained a slight decline in the export-oriented goods producing sector. Construction jobs also fell, an indication the housing boom may have ended.
Other economists have also predicted that Canada's 6.1 per cent growth rate registered in the first quarter of the year cannot be sustained and that there will be a pronounced slowing in the second half of the year.
CIBC's Krishen Rangasamy said Canadians shouldn't expect to see the unemployment rate to show dramatic improvement from the current 8.1 per cent, where it was last month as well, over the rest of the year. May's job growth did not move the jobless rate because more Canadians are returning to the labour market in the expectation that work is now available.
But unlike Bethune, Rangasamy argued that Bank of Canada governor Mark Carney was justified in pushing the trigger on the 25-basis point interest hike this week, the first among the G7 group of big industrial economies to do so.
"But a pause in rate hikes by the end of the year is likely," he added, "if, as we expect, a likely U.S. slowdown in the second half of the year, coupled with fading fiscal stimulus restrain Canada's growth."
For now, however, Canada is in a different world from its G7 peers.
Canada suffered less than most during the recession, and already 75 per cent of the 417,000 jobs lost during the year-long slump have returned.
The government agency said the key gains last month came in the transportation and warehousing industries, as well as health care and social assistance, and public administration.
There were setbacks in the accommodation and food services sector, information, culture and recreation, and in natural resources.
If there was a soft spot in the May numbers, it was that the goods-producing sector, including construction and manufacturing, was relatively flat, although both had experienced gains of late.
Regionally, Quebec, Saskatchewan, British Columbia and Prince Edward Island saw employment fall back, although only the last two by significant amounts relative to their population. Big job gains occurred in Ontario, 17,700 gain, and Alberta, 14,700.
Hourly wages rose 2.4 per cent from last year, still clear of the inflation rate.
Canadian employment beating odds for now; 24,700 jobs added in May
The Canadian economy keeps beating expectations and most of the industrialized world in its ability to create jobs.

In Reply to: mistreated aloe posted by debbie on February 10, 2003 at 07:58:30:
: help....
: i rescues a aloe barbadensis from a friend who left it outside in nov for 3 weeks here in portland ore. although the temp wasnt freezing it took a toll. it is still green but the sections have no roots and are detached from the soil. these sections have no roots. some of the plant is still in the dirt but i have no idea if it has roots as i'm afraid to disturb it. the leaves have curled over but it still looks like it can be saved. i know so little about aloe as my 70 other houseplants are of other varieties. i bought a good cactus potting mix but was hoping for any advise before i attempt to transplant it. can anyone help me?
: thank you
Hi Debbie,
I don't know if you've done anything with your rescued aloe yet, but if it's still alive since November, it will make it. The part that is still in the dirt probably has a root system. Those that are sitting on top of the soil will probably form roots over time.
You can always go to www.google.com and put in quotes like this: "aloe barbadensis" and get info on how to care for it. It's an easy one to care for. You can also click on 'Images' and often get pictures as well. Here's a site that should be helpful.
With 70 plants already, I know you'll do fine!

China Steel cuts wholesale prices due to slow demand
May 30, 2014, 12:09 am TWN
TAIPEI--China Steel Corp. (中鋼), the largest steel maker in Taiwan, has cut domestic wholesale prices for July and August contracts in reflection of slower demand in the third quarter, a traditional slow season in the steel industry.
It is the first time China Steel has cut its domestic wholesale prices since February and follows a move by its Chinese counterpart Baoshan Iron and Steel Co., which lowered product prices for June delivery.
China Steel said it has lowered local wholesale prices by NT$346 (US$11.50) per metric ton, or 1.64 percent on average.
The steel maker has lowered prices of hot-rolled steel, cold- rolled steel, electrical steel coil and hot-dipped zinc-galvanized by NT$479, NT$363, NT$536 and NT$53 per metric ton, respectively, for July-August contracts.
However, the steel maker has left prices of steel plates, steel wire rod, and electro-galvanized steel for July-August contracts unchanged.
China Steel said that as raw steel production in China remained high and a move by Japan to raise the consumption tax has impacted buying interest, demand for steel products in the region has been slowing down and the steel market in Asia has faced higher downward risks in pricing.
The price cut for July and August contracts in the domestic market is expected to boost the competitiveness of Taiwan's downstream steel segment, China Steel said.
In the first four months of this year, China Steel sold 64 percent of its production in the local downstream steel market.

The National Lacrosse League season started 15 minutes before the Portland Lumberjax did Saturday night, and the home team paid for it big time.
The New York Titans, who were as bad as the Jax last season, raced to a 7-1 lead in the first period, squandered the entire lead, then rallied for the last three goals of the game and a 14-11 victory before 10,893 spectators at the Rose Garden.
"It was a little bit more than a disappointment to us," coach Derek Keenan said afterward. "We talked this weekend about discipline, and that's what cost us."
What he meant was that the Lumberjax spent much of the first period in the penalty box. New York always seemed to have an open man, usually alarmingly close to the box.
The Jax drew five two-minute penalties in the first period; all five resulted in power-play goals for the Titans.
The Jax couldn't have drawn up a worst first quarter in their nightmares. They didn't play under lacrosse rules as much as they did under Murphy's Law.
It went something like this for the home team: They had their first goal disallowed by a penalty, then gave up the first goal of their season on Casey Powell's 35-foot skipper to goalkeeper Dallas Eliuk's stick side with 12:13 left in the period.
It was like pulling the thumb out of the dam. The Titans got the next four goals, and when Titan forward Pat Maddalena buzzed a short shot in with 2:40 left in the quarter, Jax coach Derek Keenan had seen enough: he pulled Eliuk for Pat King.
It didn't help much at first: Casey Powell (his brother Ryan plays for the Jax) flipped a non-shot into the crease that bounced up and rolled down King's back and into the goal. Then Titan transition man Jarett Park fired a 60-foot prayer just before the end of the period that went in at the horn for a 7-1 lead.
All the Lumberjax had to show for the period was Derek Malawsky's fling from just outside the crease with just 1:53 left in the 15-minute quarter, but the period looked more like this: two disallowed goals and two posts hit.
How big is a 7-1 lead? Well, the Jax averaged fewer than 10 goals a game all last season, so the understatement of the season was that they had their work cut out for them.
They bailed enough water to keep the ship from sinking after that, then started to slowly climb back into the ring. New gunslinger Dan Dawson and Malawsky, the two newcomers acquired in the dispersal draft, took Portland's offense almost entirely on themselves and brought the Jax all the way back.
King, in the meantime, was bouncing all over the Portland crease keeping New York shots out of the net. That bought his teammates enough time to get back into the game, which they did.
The Jax scored the first four goals of the fourth quarter, the last a falling shot by Ryan Powell just outside the crease that tied the game 11-11 with 8:27 left.
The euphoria lasted less than two minutes, when Maddalena scored the first of three
straight New York goals to close out the game.

Beating the snot out of people is fun, throwing cars is fun, and eating people for energy is one helluva cool idea. The only parts that sucked about venom, was I thought it was weak that people didn't die if you ate them. It would've been cool if you either spat them out dead, or just absorbed them and that was it. They only lay on the ground and hold their head and look like they need to take a couple of advil or tylenol. The other thing that sucked, was that when you changed hero's, you couldn't really do alot without attracting the attention of the entire army. Once you trash a car, it only gets worse until you eventually die, and by that point you have to spend so much time running away because you get shot too much.

The masterful stories woven by the late singer-songwriter Harry Chapin into his songs like the unforgettable "Taxi" and "Cat's in the Cradle" will be brought to life on the Majestic Theater stage beginning Thursday.
The season-ender "Lies and Legends – the Musical Stories of Harry Chapin" runs through May 26 at the West Springfield theater.
"I was hunting around for a small-scale musical knowing that we were opening our season with Broadway's 'Blood Brothers.' I had always loved Harry's music ever since the '70s and his song 'Taxi." The script was on my list for a bunch of years, and I thought it would be a nice way to close out the season," said Majestic founding producer Danny Eaton.
"It's not like a tribute show in that there is an actor pretending to be Harry. It's just his songs and all his stories sung by four performers – two older actors and a younger couple," he added.
When planning the Majestic's 2012-2013 season, Eaton knew just who he wanted to direct the Chapin show – Russell Garrett, who was the artistic director of the Foothills Theatre Company in Worcester, which closed its doors in 2009.
"I've known Russell for six or seven years and I know a lot of people who have worked with him. He's more of a director/choreographer and a lot of his work has been with big musical shows. I didn't want this to be a revue or concert, I wanted it to have some style without being Broadway jazz hands, so I thought he'd be a really good choice to direct," said Eaton.
Garrett said he was "thrilled" when Eaton approached him to direct "Lies and Legends."
"Danny and I have talked over the last few years about me working on something at the Majestic. I'm glad he selected me this show because it's such an interesting piece. It's really fun and entertaining and the difference with these songs (as opposed to some Broadway tunes) is that they are really full-fledged stories with a beginning, middle, and end. That is what Harry set out to do, create longer songs that have a different construction and that don't rely on a lot of flash, a little show biz, and lots of chorus. There's much more storytelling and I hope we are presenting them in a way true to their intention in a more theatrical format," said the director, who noted he is using the four singers and their body movements in different ways to help play out the stories .
Eaton said an interesting side note to the current Majestic production is that John Herrera of New York, who performed in the original production back in the 70s and 80s in New York, Chicago, and Los Angeles, will return to star in the West Springfield run.
"I've always been partial to story songs, and Harry's are some of the best. One of the reasons I've come back to the show is that I have so much life under my belt now. I was in my late 20s when I first did the show and I hadn't a clue about half of what I was singing because I hadn't lived it yet. I'm a father and grandfather now, and the 'Cat's in the Cradle' lyrics have much more weight," said Herrera.
Herrera's "older" partner in the Majestic production is Sonja Stuart of New York. Darcie Champagne of Belchertown and Tyler Morrill of Cambridge play the younger couple.
