Minamisanriku fishing families work out of two locations: their boat and their fishing shed. The March 2011 tsunami destroyed the homes, boats, and sheds of numerous families. While many have now secured access to a boat, most families still lack a fishing shed. With your support Peace Winds America is building work and storage sheds for 40 fishing families that lost their homes and sheds in the March 2011 tsunami.
Yutaka Satoh and his wife, like many Minamisanriku fishing families, live in a small temporary housing unit several kilometers from the seashore. The tsunami destroyed the Satoh's home and shed, leaving only the concrete foundations. PWA built a fishing shed for the Satoh family in August 2012. During a visit in September, PWA found the Satohs mending salmon nets, seeding wakame seaweed ropes, and repairing octopus traps. According to Yutaka Satoh, preparation is the key to successful fall and winter fishing seasons, and to regaining his livelihood. The fishing shed provides the work and storage space he needs to succeed.
With your support, PWA and partners are building 40 fishing sheds in five Minamisanriku districts. Already other Minamisanriku districts are taking notice, asking when PWA will expand the shed building program to their district. PWA hopes to build sheds throughout Minaminsanriku, and help restore the livelihoods of fishing families like the Satohs.

Mila Kunis stars in this ghastly and tiresomely foul-mouthed rom-com. She plays Jamie, a New York head-hunter who is dumped for having "big eyes" by a jerk in the opening scene.
Justin Timberlake's whiny-voiced GQ art director, Dylan, is also chucked by an angry John Mayer fan (the excellent Emma Stone, wasted here). They meet, talk rapidly at each other before sleeping together and agreeing to be friends who bonk. This unfunny excrescence even has the gall to take swipes at other, better romantic comedies. The sort of film that makes you lose hope in humanity; plus, it wastes the talents of Patricia Clarkson and Woody Harrelson.Reuse content

See the step-by-step process on how allergy skin testing is performed, from placement of the skin tests to reading the results!

How the skin is prepped for testing

 The skin is prepped for testing by allergy testing with rubbing alcohol.

Skin testing devices

There are many skin testing devices for allergy testing. Many perform multiple skin tests on a single device.

Marking the skin

 The skin is marked with a pen in order to keep track of which skin test represents which allergen.

Ready for skin testing

 The skin is now ready for allergy tests to be placed.

Skin testing procedure

 The skin test procedure involves pressing the skin test device into the skin, with metal or plastic tips puncturing just the top later of the skin.

Completing the skin test

 A number of skin tests are placed, depending on the symptoms of the patient and what the allergist to trying to determine are the possible causes of the person's allergy symptoms.

Blotting the skin

 Excess allergen extract is removed from the skin by blotting with paper towels.

Waiting 15 minutes

A timer is set for 15 to 20 minutes, allowing time for the skin tests to react prior to reading the results.

Reading the results

 The skin test results are read at 15 minutes. A positive test shows a wheal (bump) and flare (redness) reaction. These are measured and compared to the positive and negative controls.

Close-up of results

 A close-up of the results show a significant positive reaction to an allergen as a result of skin testing.

Skin testing complete

 The skin test is now complete and the results can be interpreted by the allergist.

Mac System Showing Big Grey Screen On Startup
Hardware failure can occur by human being mistake like dropping it on the floor, by normal disasters like flood, fire, by dirt particles, by electrical quick circuit, by PCB failure or by a virus assault. Hardware elements which usually fail will be the platters as well as the mind. If any dirt particles, finger prints or water are exposed to the surface of the platter, it gets damaged. Likewise, mind also can get crashed.
Partial Telephone Diagnosis - A lot of data recovery services vendors repeat this: rush you to definitely deliver your drive to them quickly so that you are forced to work alongside them. Actually, some shady Mac hard drive recovery sales people don't even make inquiries beyond "how fast is it possible to obtain it right here?" The fact is, a business it doesn't make inquiries in regards to the information loss is most likely simply looking to cheat you and hold your Mac hard drive for ransom. Which brings us to another point.
To recuperate your computer data you'll want to consult to data recovery specialist. They'll precisely examine your hard drive and provide appropriate data data recovery solution.
Like, when a fire breaks down at a factory that manufactures nail polishes. The factory is burned entirely destroying every thing, such as the critical data saved in hard disk drive of computer systems kept there.
Testimonials - In an identical vein, if the information data recovery provider you call upon states they offer Mac data recovery, inquire further for some sources. Even though many organizations wont provide real names and cell phone numbers considering protection issues, they are going to at the very least have a great selection of consumer testimonials readily available. It never ever hurts for recommendations, particularly when it comes towards important files.
Numerous information recovery organizations provide a no information, free guarantee. Others charge an evaluation or effort charge. The answer to the prior concern revealed their price for parts therefore, if they replace components; just how can they afford to do a totally free evaluation? If you dig deep sufficient you will usually find that "your situation does not fit this criteria" or "your hard drive requires more considerable work than we thought".
However if time is more critical and money is no obstacle then bite the bullet and simply take your drive to an area computer shop that does data recovery work. Or if that is not feasible then contact a big solution like Ontrack and deliver your hard disk drive in their mind.

Professional services
I WOULD like to comment on the services rendered at Cape Girardeau County Public Health Center. The staff there and the professionalism shown to clients are unmatched in the health field. Maybe some of the doctors and nurses at other facilities need to observe and take notes.
Costs would go up
I'M SO tired of hearing the complaints about welfare for farmers. Even the farmers would rather lose the government control on U.S. agriculture and would freely give up any so-called subsidies that are referred to as welfare as long as the consumers are willing to start paying the price for what products are worth. Six dollars for a gallon of milk? That is what you would see in a free-market system.
Simple calculation
AT THE beginning of winter there was a flu-vaccine shortage. Despite dire predictions, we have had the mildest flu season in anyone's memory. When the vaccine supply got back to normal, doctors urged people to get a late shot just to be sure. Now we are having a late flu outbreak. How many times do you have to add up two and two to get four before you come to the logical conclusion?
No difference
REGARDING THE Black Panthers: Yes, times have changed. That's the point. There should not be more emphasis put on black leaders these days. If a leader from a so-called white group came to speak, it would be labeled as racist. There are not supposed to be differences in races anymore. So why are they still there?
More genocide
A BRIEF update on Gary Rust's good column on the Rwandan genocide in the mid-1990s while the rest of the world stood by: The perpetrators of the genocide, radical elements of the Hutu tribe, have reassembled in the Democratic Republic of the Congo and are again slaughtering members of the Tutsi tribe. History also seems to be repeating itself in the sense that the U.N. Security Council (including the United States) are taking no steps which would allow for military action to eliminate the perpetrators. Another genocide seems more than likely.
Paying for pills
MEDICARE COVERS Viagra, but my birth control pills aren't covered by my insurance. I have to pay to be responsible while old guys get to have sex again for free.
They're no heroes
IN RESPONSE to Gary Rust's column, "No hero," I know a couple of guys similar to Bobby Seale who have a money-raising shtick with the sale of books, ads and other paraphernalia. Rush Limbaugh has a radio show. David Limbaugh has a newspaper column. They demean and insult people who don't agree with them. They have made millions. They are no heroes.
Interstate pothole
WE'RE IN terrible need of the highway department to fix a major hole on Interstate 55 on the southbound side just before the Scott City exit. There's a hole that just keeps getting deeper and deeper. It's tearing up vehicles.
What were you thinking?
I WANT everybody to think about what they voted for when they voted for President Bush. He's got us in the war. Now he's going to attack the Social Security system. Everyone says Social Security seems to be OK except President Bush. We have four more years of rough times ahead of us. I hope at the end of four years the voters will wake up. President Bush has done nothing for us but cause us trouble. For those of you who voted for President Bush, you're about to eat your words.
Restrictions too tight
WE'RE GETTING like China. How can anyone say eight animals in a house is too many when homo sapiens are animals?
It's not welfare
PEOPLE WHO complain about farmers have never had any experience on a farm. I don't consider the help the government gives the farmers to be welfare. Most people don't realize how much it costs to put out a crop. You have to have the machinery, fields, seed and fertilizer. You put in all your money and time, and if you have a drought or bad weather, who suffers? The farmers. The farmers have no income then. Who helps put the food on your table? Farmers need help. Farmers are not getting welfare.
Raise the cap
I THINK the $90,000 income cap on Social Security taxes is too low. I think a $200,000 cap would be better. Look at the fancy homes going up around Jackson and Cape Girardeau. So certainly a cap of $200,000 would be good. I hope our federal legislators are listening.
You have the power
I'M CALLING about all the people complaining about the cuts in the First Steps program. Why do people think the government has to carry the load all the time? Can't people learn to help themselves? Get some training and work with your child. Help them reach their potential. You have the power. I have a sister who is developmentally disabled. When I was growing up, our family helped her to walk, talk and socialize. We want our children to reach their fullest potential. Educate yourself. You have the power.
It's our money
THE MILLIONS of jobs exported to places like China, India and the Philippines pay nothing into our Social Security fund. Why shouldn't these industries be required to pay a surtax on each worker into this fund? Instead, we do nothing but aid the industries with tax breaks. The poor in the United States must find it heartwarming to see us pour money into foreign nations. Those who look down on the poor as freeloaders are casting their gaze the wrong way. If you look up, the extremely wealthy received huge tax breaks from President Bush and, through the use of loopholes, many of these paid little or no tax.
Friendly helpers
TO THE guys working at the Cape Girardeau recycling center, we say thanks. Every time we've been there, you have helped us unload, have been so friendly and have made the day a little better for us. Our hats are off to you.
Stop the plush pensions
THANK YOU, state Sen. Jason Crowell, for looking inward for budget cuts and having the guts to stand up and expose the extra retirement of some state employees. I hope lots of people write their state legislators to encourage this practice to stop.
Cause for celebration
MARTIN LUTHER King, Jr. was an all-inclusive integrationist. Confederate sympathizing segregationists and modern-day secessionists are exclusivist separationists. The former deserves celebration. The latter deserve condemnation.

Regional News Briefs
Walker to sign bill allowing MU police
Gov. Scott Walker will sign a bill Monday allowing Marquette University to employ police officers.
Walker, who attended Marquette, will sign Assembly Bill 768 on the campus, the governor's office said Sunday.
The bill says the university may "enter into an agreement with the attorney general or with the city of Milwaukee police department to establish a university police department and employ university police officers for the purposes of maintaining public order, detecting and preventing crime, and enforcing state laws and local ordinances on the grounds of the university and in adjacent areas."
University police officers would have the same powers as law enforcement officers employed by the City of Milwaukee, including arrest powers.
The bill had bipartisan support.
Marquette officials said in March that they had not made a final decision on whether to use the authority in the bill to hire sworn officers.

The Discussion
Great video. I'm not a technical user of Bing Maps but I thoroughly enjoyed this sneak peek into the technicalities of Maps and Streetside. I was hoping to see talk about Photosynth and Photosynth Panoramas and how you would incorporate them into Bing Maps. Panoramas are much more than simply a photo that needs to be stitched into the original Streetside imagery; panoramas can be 360 degrees and are greatly detailed. How would these be implemented into Maps, if at all? Certainly was hoping to hear about that.
Again, great video. Looking forward to see more.
Someone needs to get all of London's CCTV cameras up and streaming on this new StreetSide tool on Bing. Microsoft has the money, and London has the cameras!
So, be honest guys, is the 'Human Scale Debug Helper' what was bookmarked on Blaise's favorite bar as "TronBuild" during his presentation at O'Reilly Where 2.0 2010 (6:50) or does that point to one of your unreleased versions?
@jpere165, apologies if I'm only comprehending your question at a lower level, but the Photosynth panoramas are also cube mapped, in much the same way that each Streetside panorama is. Granted it isn't working against any existing -> simple geometry as of yet, but transitioning into them should be extremely similar to transitioning into the current professionally shot panoramas. I do second your request that the process actually be talked about, though.
It's been mentioned on the Photosynth forums and blog, and Chris P. has hinted on twitter that Photosynth-hosted panoramas will be integrated into the upcoming version of Bing Maps, so Laura or Chris take note that we'll be eager to hear all about how its being done when you announce and cover the next wave of Bing Maps.
I'm also extremely interested in seeing each photo within a synth be clickable from inside of Streetview just as Flickr photos are in the Streetside Photos CTP. If the sheer number isn't too much for Silverlight to handle with decent performance, it could be the key to being able to move between synths seamlessly, being that in geoaligned synths, each camera's coordinates actually correspond to real world coordinates. If you can't load all the photos in all the nearby synths, then polling for the nearest 20 or so or the 20 that project onto surfaces currently in Streetside's viewport, irregardless of which synth they're in, would be really great.
As to the move from the D3D Bing Maps control to the Silverlight 3 app (apologies in advance for this, Chris), all I really have to say is that I really hope that hardware accelerated 3D comes to Silverlight soon (SL5?), because otherwise WebGL is going to sneak up behind you and you'll have full blown Google Earth happening inside of an HTML5 canvas over at that other map site with all the anti-plugin HTML5 advocates singing the praises of you know who. Be ready. The only hope you have of beating that is to show that you can do more with Silverlight or get better performance or something along those lines. If not then Bing Maps AJAX may suddenly surpass the Silverlight edition. What's that you say? Heresy? Don't say I didn't warn you.

I haven't been able to find guar gum anywhere and I can't use xanthum gum due to the corn allergy so many many GF recipes I can't make
Chinese, in that recipe you posted, which looks awesome btw, what do you sub for the buttermilk/non-dairy powder? I haven't found any that are corn free. Is it just for flavoring?
I got that e-book (www.buckwheatpete.com I think) and I'm going to give the english muffins a try tonight. If they turn out they will be a nice easy portable option tomorrow.
buckwheat english muffin with honey and/or nut butter or avocado and deli turkey (if you can find a safe one).
I don't think the Boar's Head is safe for corn allergies. Applegate farms is supposed to be but there's too much contamination from the deli. Dd is OK if I eat it but she can't eat it without reacting.
I just came back from 3 different Whole Foods and 1 TJs and still no guar gum and none of them even understood what it was. Also it took 2 Whole Foods before I could find buckwheat flour of any kind. This place stinks.
Chinese, is it the pre-packaged Boar's Head or the deli stuff?
So far on my list of stuff we are taking tomorrow are bananas, apples, grapes, raisins, fruit dip, potato chips, broccoli, hummus, hot dogs, english muffins with honey on them, applesauce, and yogurt. Oh and some new crackers I found tonight but I'm thinking they won't taste very good since the only ingredients are brown rice and salt.

PITTSBURGH—An exciting lineup is in place for the 44th annual University of Pittsburgh Jazz Seminar and Concert, the longest-running event of its kind in the United States.
Pitt Jazz Week—which comprises free on-campus seminars, performances at community venues, and the Nov. 1 concert at Carnegie Music Hall—will run from Oct. 27 to Nov. 1.
Under the direction of internationally renowned pianist, composer, and Pitt Jazz Studies Program director Geri Allen, the following artists are scheduled to participate:
Clifton Anderson, trombonist, who toured with Sonny Rollins for years and is one of the most in-demand session musicians;
Terri Lyne Carrington, drummer, composer, and producer, who earlier this year became the first female artist to win a Grammy Award for Best Jazz Instrumental Album for her 2013 album Money Jungle: Provocative in Blue;
Tia Fuller, alto saxophonist and composer and a member of the all-female band that toured with the Beyoncé Experience World Tour in 2006-07;
Joe Lovano, tenor saxophonist, who has recorded or performed with just about every jazz great within the 20th century;
Esperanza Spalding, bassist, cellist, and singer, who in 2011 became the first jazz performer ever to win the Grammy Award for Best New Artist; and
Afro Blue, Howard University's premier vocal a cappella jazz ensemble, whose members have won awards from DownBeat magazine and have competed on a national level on NBC-TV's The Sing-Off.
Allen, Carrington, and Spalding have been touring internationally as the ACS Trio.
More details about Pitt Jazz Week will be announced in the coming weeks.
Allen is continuing the legacy of Pitt Professor Emeritus of Music Nathan Davis, the former director and founder of the Pitt Jazz Seminar and Concert, who retired in the summer of 2013. The Jazz Studies Program is based in the Department of Music in Pitt's Kenneth P. Dietrich School of Arts and Sciences.

Mortimer H. Neufville Named Interim President of Coppin State University
Published Tuesday, November 20th, 2012
Mortimer H. Neufville Named Interim President of Coppin State University
The appointment of Neufville follows Coppin State President Reginald Avery's announcement last month that he is resigning his position effective January 22, 2013. Neufville will serve as interim president until Avery's successor is named and joins the Coppin community.
"We are very fortunate that Dr. Neufville has accepted this appointment," said Kirwan. "With a history of serving higher education with distinction and effectiveness, he is well positioned to serve Coppin well during this critical transition period."
From 1983 through 1996, Neufville held several positions at UMES, including vice president for academic affairs and dean of agricultural sciences and research director. He received his Ph.D. and M.S. degrees in animal science from the University of Florida. In 2001, he was awarded the Honorary Doctor of Science degree from Tuskegee University, from which he earned his B. S. degree in agriculture. Also in 2001, the University of Florida honored him with its Distinguished Alumnus Award.
"Thanks to Chancellor Kirwan for his confidence in my ability to provide leadership for Coppin State University during this period of transition," said Neufville. "I am very committed to higher education and especially to our institutions that provide access and opportunities to first-generation students. Working together with our various constituents, we can identify key priorities for the future and design appropriate strategies for even more success for Coppin."
One of the 12 institutions of the University System of Maryland, Coppin State is a historically black, four-year university offering 28 undergraduate majors and 12 graduate-degree programs in the liberal arts and sciences, business, education, and nursing. The university has earned local, national, and international recognition for its information technology efforts, including being the first historically black university to receive the prestigious Educause Award for Excellence in Networking.

Where I stayed
Then we went to the Old Town, saw the Roman Ruins, some churches, took the U-bahn over to Palmengarten. It always strikes us as strange to see Roman ruins and hear about Roman control in Germany. But the Holy Roman Empire was actually based in the area that is now Germany. Electors were chosen by Rome to rule over the Germanic areas. They had much power, but needed the cooperation of lower level territorial princes. Rudolph von Habsburg came to power as a territorial prince in 1273. The Habsburgs were of Swiss origin. Rudolph was the 1st of 19 Habsburgs to rule. In 1278 Rudolph gained control of much of what is Austria and that became the cornerstone of their power
The Palmengarten is 50 acres of plantings, with huge greenhouses called Tropicariums. Each one has a different climate. They regulate temperature, humidity, barometric pressure in each. The regions range from subantarctic to low rainforest, high rainforest, desert. They have mid-western prairies, rose gardens, rhododendrum paths, dahlias 7 ft tall. One tropicarium is entirely dedicated to palms. Stayed a couple hours and walked home.
Then to Der Wirtshaus for a last delicious German meal... and it was good! Also finally, after much searching, found a Black Forest cake for Cameron. Frankfurters eat differently than elsewhere in Germany. Lighter food, not as many wursts, desserts are different. I guess they prefer apple wine to beer also.

Years Available: 1952 - 2013Learn More About This Publication
New Braunfels Herald Zeitung (Newspaper) - July 27, 2005, New Braunfels, Texas Closing Museum of Art, Music losing a piece on heritage It was a sad day for our local music scene Saturday when I received the official announcement that the New Braunfels Museum of Art and Music was closing its doors at the end of the current Austin Qty Limits exhibit Aug. 8. The museum has struggled with financial burdens since it first opened in the old Hummel Museum building in downtown New Braunfels. After moving to the beautiful new building in Gruene, the staff immediately began featuring fantastic exhibits focusing on all aspects of Texas Music. They also featured hundreds of shows featuring live music, giving many young artists an audience to play for. However, for whatever reason, our community has never supported the museum in the manner it needed to survive. The final exhibit showcasing the Austin City limits TV series was their most ambitious project to date. If you haven't taken the time to visit the museum, please do so before this exhibit and the museum close their doors. Once it's gone, we will lose yet another establishment that made our city special. Maybe all the area musicians should join together and organize a 'Save the Museum" concert.■ ■■ Although it is closing, there is still a concert to be held in the museum. The Flatliners will perform at 8 p.m. Thursday in the museum, the band features Vince Bell, Steven Fromholz and Erie Taylor. Each member has many CDs and live performances, including Lyle Lovett's "Step Inside This House," a tribute to Texas songwriters. Tickets are $15 , which also allows the person to visit the "Austin City Limits" exhibit.■ ■■ Gruene Hall offers its usual fantastic weekend of live music, starting with Pure Prairie League Friday night. Jon Dee Graham opens this show. Tickets are $20 and music gets started about 8 p.m. Ever wonder where the band got their name? It comes from the 1939 Errol Flynn movie, "Dodge City." A group of women formed a union to help tame the lawless city and named themselves "the Pure Prairie League." The band got their start in 1969 and after several short breaks, has continued to record and tour ever since. Country singer Vince Gill was even a band member during the 1976-78 era. Texas songbird Susan Gibson has her long awaited CD release party I to 5 p.m. Saturday. Theres no cover charge and fans can pick up a copy of her new CD, "Outer Space," which contains her latest hit, "I'm The Happiest When I'm Moving." TWo Tons of Steel plays a rare Saturday night show in addition to their regular Tuesday night gig. Tickets are just $10 for this show. In what has now become a major monthly event, Monte Montgomery plays Adobe Verde Restaurant in Gruene Thursday. It still amazes me that fans can see one of the top guitarists in America right in our back yard, with no cover charge. As a music fan for more than four decades, I've been fortunate enough to see dozens of famous guitar players in concert Monte still ranks near the top as the most talented player I've ever seen. The things he can do with a 6-string acoustic guitar are simply amazing and must be seen to be believed. While you're there, pick up a copy of one of Monte's CD's and get him to autograph it for you. Music starts about 7:30 pm and theres no cover charge. If you can, come back to Adobe on Saturday and Sunday to catch Austin singer /songwriter Brian lee.DALE MARTIN Dale Martin writes about music.

Brown bag meals don t have to be boring By Ann Cousin Correspondent Very few people eat lunch at home any more. Whether kids need lunch packed for a busy school day or someone needs a quick lunch to eat at the desk, packable lunches are a necessity. People shouldn't settle for the same boring sandwich everyday when they can have a fabulous brown bag lunch. Make it special; think of a packed lunch as a chance to have a picnic each and every day. Eating out at local restaurants and ordering fast food can not only be a bit unhealthy, it can also cost a fortune. People can easily spend $30 to $50 dollars a week eating lunch out every day. Bringing a lunch to work can save money and keep people focused on good nutrition. The key is to make sure to not get stuck in a rut by bringing the same old tiling every day. With proper planning, people can feed themselves and their family a delicious hot soup, some easy to handle sandwiches and some sturdy, crunchy, hearty cookies. Tuck a frozen juice box or two alongside the sandwiches; it will thaw in time for lunch, keeping the sandwich properly cold until it's time to eat. Make sure to include some hand wipes and napkins in tile lunch box to clean up before and after eating. To make a brown-bag lunch enjoyable, it is important to eat a variety of nutritious foods. Smaller meals eaten more frequently throughout the day help maintain energy levels. Having some small snacks on hand, such as a piece of fruit or a container of yogurt, can help keep hunger pangs at bay. If a person eats more frequently throughout the day, be sure to keep the meals smaller, so as not to increase the number of calories consumed each day. If someone eats at his desk and has a refrigerator at work, they can take along a day's supply of yogurt, hummus, cut-up vegetables and salsa or yogurt dips, low-fat cheeses, and juices. If the office has a microwave, the person can easily heat leftovers brought from home. Salads are easy to make and offer great nutritional value. People can start with prewashed, cut-up salad greens from the store. Add protein, such as chickpeas or sunflower seeds and whole wheat noodles or brown rice and someone has a nutritional powerhouse. Make meals convenient and fun; try healthy, ready-to-pack items. Individual packs, such as fruit, fruit juice, yogurt, pudding, soup, popcorn and pretzels are easy lunch mates. Prewashed and pre cut vegetables and fruits, and pre-assembled pasta and grain salads will help you pack some surprises into your lunch. Tty the following healthy alternatives: ■ Grains— If someone is tired of sandwich bread, try pocket or pita bread, tortilla wraps, rice cakes or grain salads, such as couscous. ■ Fruits — Keep interest high by choosing exotic fruits on occasion, for example, star fruit, kiwi and papaya. ■ Vegetables— Raw carrot or celery sticks are great, but occasionally you might enjoy more satisfying vegetable soups or main-dish salads. People can mix up a medley of cooked vegetables and stuff them in pocket bread. Some other foods to pack or add to a sandwich include hummus mixed with tuna, celery, tomatoes, carrots and water chestnuts. ■ Dairy — Alternate dairy products such as skim milk, fat-free yogurt, and low-fat cheese. ■ Meat — If someone packs some of the above items into his lunch, it becomes easier to take meat off center stage. Change the selection of lean meats from day to day, and think about meat substitutes, such as low-fat cheeses, beans, nut spreads, hummus and tofu. ■ Beverages — Get rid of the soda pop. Try low-fat soy or rice milk, IOO percent fruit juices, shakes made from ice milk or low-fat frozen yogurt, IOO percent vegetable juices, spring or sparkling waters or herbal teas. ■ Fat-free toppings — A dollop of a flavorful topping can make foods more interesting. Choose fat-free sour cream, mayonnaise, cream cheese, salad dressings, salsa, mustard, ketchup, hummus or tahini.

How social media influences Millennials' political views
Researchers, politicians and marketers are keenly interested in the Millennial generation, born between 1980 and the mid-2000s. Also known as Generation Y, this generation is markedly different than earlier ones. For example, its members are less likely to be affiliated with religion and more likely to be politically independent. This group — America's most diverse and educated generation — also is the largest in the U.S. labor force. Millennials also stand out as the first generation to grow up with the Internet as well as technology such as cell phones, smart phones and tablets.
As "digital natives," Millennials are heavy users of social media, relying on platforms such as Facebook and Twitter to connect them with more than just friends and family. Eighty-eight percent of Millennials who participated in a March 2015 research study said they use Facebook to find news. This reliance on social media has fueled debates about how social media and personalized web searches influence political polarization. At the same time, social media also provides opportunities for people to actively engage in politics, including communicating directly with community leaders and their staff.
Scholars at the University of Hawaii sought to understand how Millennials use social media to educate themselves about political issues and political candidates. Their August 2015 study, "Community Matters: How Young Adults Use Facebook to Evaluate Political Candidates," compares the opinions formed by college students who received information about two opposing political candidates through social media with the opinions of students who got information about the candidates from more traditional information sources, including news articles. A total of 70 students participated in the study, which was published in the Information Polity journal and funded by the National Science Foundation. The majority of participants were aged 18-20 years old.
Key findings include:
- Millennials tend to stumble upon political information rather than seek it out. They tend to "have serendipitous encounters with political information both on- and offline."
- Millennials' political opinions are influenced by online interactions and interactions that do not involve the Internet. Many of the college students in this study said their parents were their strongest influences.
- College students who saw the political candidates' Facebook pages were much more likely to base their opinions on Facebook community-based cues. These students read comments left on Facebook pages to gauge other people's opinions of the candidates and also to see how candidates responded to and interacted with citizens.
This study suggests that user-generated comments on social media can influence the reputations of political candidates in the eyes of potential Millennial voters. "As political conversations often emerge spontaneously in non-political spaces … audiences will be affected by candidates' SM [social media] presence, regardless of whether they sought out the political information," the authors state. The authors note that study participants' exposure to social media was limited to 10 minutes per Facebook page and that other behaviors might have emerged with longer exposure times. The authors recommend that future studies investigate how social media affects young adults' opinions of corporations and brands.
Related research: A 2015 meta-study published in Information, Communication & Society, "Social Media Use and Participation: A Meta-analysis of Current Research," explores the effects of social media on political participation and civic engagement. A 2015 research brief from the Scholars Strategy Network considers the Internet's role in promoting political activism among underrepresented groups.

The information revolution and small business lending: the missing evidence
This paper provides empirical confirmation for Petersen and Rajan's (2002) widely accepted conjecture that information technology was the primary driver of the observed increase in small business borrower-lender distances in the United States in recent years. Using a different data source for small business loans, we show that annual increases in borrower-lender distances were slow and steady prior to 1993 (the end point in Petersen and Rajan's data) but accelerated rapidly after that. Importantly, we are able to assign at least half of this acceleration to the adoption of credit scoring technologies by the lending banks. Our tests also reveal strong statistical associations between lending distances and borrower characteristics, lender characteristics, market conditions, regulatory constraints, moral hazard incentives, and principal-agent incentives.

Serves 4 to 6
Smashing low-starch potatoes into a rustic side dish is the way to go to avoid gumminess. Besides, there is always someone who loves lumps.
1-3/4 to 2 pounds red-skinned potatoes, scrubbed and
cut into 1-1/2- to 2-inch chunks
Kosher salt
2 Tablespoons unsalted butter, cut into pieces and softened
4 ounces boursin (with garlic and herbs), cut into pieces
and at room temperature
3 scallions (white parts with some green), chopped
Freshly ground black pepper
Put the potatoes in a large saucepan and cover with cold water by at least an inch. Add a generous 1/2 teaspoon salt and bring to a boil. Lower the heat to maintain a steady simmer, cover the pot partially, and cook until the potatoes are quite tender when tested with a metal skewer, 15 to 20 minutes.
Drain the potatoes—reserving some of the cooking water—and dump them back in the pot. Dry the potatoes over medium heat, shaking the pan and stirring, until most of the moisture has steamed off. Reduce the heat to very low.
Use the side of a big metal spoon to cut through the skins and flesh of the potatoes, reducing the chunks to a very coarse mash. Stir in the butter and then the boursin. You might need to loosen the mash with a few tablespoons cooking water or as much as 1/2 cup. Don't beat vigorously or the potatoes may turn gummy. Stir in the scallions, add salt and pepper, and serve right away.
Cooking Right
A big metal spoon is the best tool for making smashed potatoes where you want to retain texture and lumps.

World Bank funded project to uplift Sri Lanka's Town Hall Square
Fri, Oct 25, 2013, 01:17 am SL Time, ColomboPage News Desk, Sri Lanka.
Oct 25, Colombo: A World Bank funded project is in the works to enhance the environment surrounding the historic Town Hall Square in the Sri Lankan capital and open up the now fenced space to the public.
The significant land mark in the heart of capital Colombo adjacent to the Vihara Maha Devi Park has remained fenced and gated for many years.
Due to the lack of lighting the colonial time park is an unsafe environment at night, particularly for women, denying the residents of the opportunity to experience the open space, the World Bank says.
The Metro Colombo Urban Development Project (MCUDP) with the concept of Open Spaces-Open Minds will upgrade a total of 50.8 hectares surrounding the Town Hall and open up the spaces within the Square with improved facilities and access to all public spaces while retaining the existing architectural and environmental character of the landmark area.
The uplift is expected to benefit the general public including both the visitors to the city and the residential population.
The MCUDP aims to provide pedestrians with safe, clean, and convenient walkways along primary, secondary, and tertiary road networks improving access to commercial and recreational spaces such as Town Hall Square.
Under the Project road network around the Town Hall Square, namely the area bounded by Dharmapala Mawatha, Marcus Fernando Mawatha and C.W.W. Kannangara Mawatha will be upgraded.
Pedestrian sidewalks will be upgraded with improved street lighting and soft landscaping to improve the functionality and the overall visual impact of the area.
Town Hall premises will be upgraded to improve pedestrian access and linkages between the surrounding road network while the center isles and roundabouts will be upgraded and landscaped.
Vihara Maha Devi Park located opposite the Town Hall Square will be upgraded to enhance functionality and recreational use whilst creating pedestrian footpaths through the park that improve connectivity.
The US$ 320 million Project will also aim to rehabilitate the road network to ease congestion and improve both pedestrian and vehicular traffic flow through the area.
The five-year MCUDP implemented by the Ministry of Defence and Urban Development has also upgraded most of the underground utilities and enhanced the drainage system of the area to reduce the future impact of floods.
The World Bank has committed US$ 213 million to the project while the government is responsible for the remaining US$ 107 million of the estimated cost.

question about pumps....
i have a couple of maxijet 1200 pumps and i have been using them with the oxygen tube. My question is i want to put the pump lower in my tank and in order to do o i need to remove the tube. Can i do without the air hose?
The air tube is intended to provide a venturi, to be used when the Maxi Jet is powering a Protein Skimmer. For directly placement in the water, you would be best not to use the air tubes.
Agreed, if you're worried about O2 in the tank, your skimmer should be doing the job for you. If you don't have one, then surface agitation will do the same job. I just hope you are planning on keeping any anthias ;-)

Dig (composition)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
|This article needs additional citations for verification. (September 2014) (Learn how and when to remove this template message)
"Dig" is a bebop jazz standard composed by Miles Davis. It was recorded on October 5, 1951 for Prestige Records and first released on an album under the same title.
Its chord sequence is almost identical to that of Sweet Georgia Brown by Ben Bernie and Maceo Pinkard, making it a contrafact. Davis second recording of the tune on May 9 the following year, this time for Blue Note, it was called "Donna" and credited to Jackie McLean, who played alto saxophone on both sessions (Young Man with a Horn and Miles Davis Volume 1).[1]
"Dig" has also been played by numerous other artists such as Sonny Rollins, Woody Herman, Donald Byrd, Archie Shepp, Joey DeFrancesco, and Fred Firth.

Jack Chambers, Milestones: The Music and Times of Miles Davis, Da Capo Press, Cambridge, Mass., 1998 (unabr. paperback ed.), pt. 1, p.158: "Dig, credited to Davis, was recorded seven month later as Donna and credited to McLean; by either title and author, it is a bebop line superimposed on the chord sequence of Sweet Georgia Brown."; Chambers (1998), p.164f: "Donna is a peculiarly methodical reading of the bouncy tune recorded under the title Dig for Prestige..."
