"A plump wife and a big barn never did any man harm."
...Old Pennsylvania Dutch saying.
It's gooey sweet and unadorned by a top crust. What better invitation to come join the party does a hungry insect need? It should be called "molasses pie," but it's whimsically named shoo-fly because its "open" structure lures flies that must be shooed away. Shoo-fly pie is a Pennsylvania Dutch creation—a direct descendant of "Centennial Cake" introduced at the first World's Fair—the 1876 Philadelphia Centennial Exposition.
The Pennsylvania Dutch are children of German immigrants who settled in and around Lancaster, Pennsylvania, USA. Some Pennsylvania Dutch belong to the Mennonite or Old Order Amish religions. The word "Dutch" is misleading—the people have no relation with the Netherlands. It's a derivative of "Deutsche" (meaning German). It's believed that outsiders, unable to pronounce the word "Deutsche, used the term "Dutch" instead. Lancaster, Pennsylvania is known as Pennsylvania Dutch Country, Amish Country, or the "Heartland" and is the home of many simple yet delicious recipes.
Traditionally, "plain folk," Amish or Pennsylvania Dutch cooking is simple, relying on readily available ingredients—many grown or made on the family farms. Favorite foods include scrapple, pig stomach, shoe-fly pie, eggs (eaten with extra salt, pepper, and ketchup), funnel cakes, chow-chow, and cup cheese.
Molasses is the thick, dark-colored byproduct of either raw sugar milling or refining; it is a heavy, viscous liquid from which no further sugar can be crystallized by usual methods. Early shoo-fly pies contained "baking molasses" purchased from Amish grocers. Patrons toted empty quart jars to food purveyors that were filled with the thick syrup from barrels. Customers purchased "eating molasses" the same way.
Today, it's hard to find baking molasses. To make tasty Shoo-fly Pie use unsulphered molasses. Steer clear of any product labeled "blackstrap" as it has an overpowering flavor that's not appropriate for this simple pie. Blackstrap is used mainly for cattle feed or as a source of ethyl alcohol—it's that strong.

'"High expectations," said Conklin about the Sabres. Conklin played in 11 games with the Columbus Blue Jackets this season, registering a 2-3-2 record with a .871 save percentage. "I mean certainly every team has high expectations but this team has followed through on many of those so far. It's exciting to be in the locker room."'

Attempting to Fit In
From second-worst to first: Zubrus excited to join Cup-contending Sabres
'More significant to Zubrus, who'll wear No. 15, is going from out of the playoff race to a bona fide Stanley Cup contender. "It definitely gives you a little boost," Zubrus said. "With the last couple of years in Washington, you don't get to experience the playoffs or a real hockey atmosphere. This is a very good change for me. I'm very excited."'
Zubrus Joins Sabres
'Zubrus is probably a rental player for the Sabres. His $1.85-million dollar salary this year helped Buffalo stay under the salary cap. But he's going to be an unrestricted free agent this summer, and reportedly turned down a three year offer from the Caps worth $10-million. Zubrus says he doesn't regret turning down that offer. "What difference does it make if you're hoisting the silver trophy?"'
Even through bad times, Biron was good
'Once the heir apparent to Dominik Hasek, Marty Biron was squarely back in the spotlight six days ago, and where others hightail out of the HSBC Arena locker rooms, Biron would have done two shows if the tickets were moving.'
Wednesday's Rochester Coverage
Deals leave Amerks top-heavy on defense (Rochester D&C)
Amerks greet Griffins tonight at BCA (Amerks.com)
Florida recalls Globke, assigns Welch to Amerks (Amerks.com)
Short-handed squad comes up big
'"We expect to play good every night no matter who's in the lineup," said rookie forward Clarke MacArthur, who scored his second career goal and added two assists. "Even though we keep losing character guys, other guys step up. It's been rolling really well."'
Sabres lay it on the line
'The four trades weren't Bob Corkum deals. They were the sort of moves that showed the Sabres, who acquired no help at last year's trade deadline, weren't willing to take their increasingly inexperienced roster for granted.'
Sabres hope trades lead to Stanley Cup
'"You always wish you could do more," Regier said before driving to Toronto for the Sabres' game against the Maple Leafs. "You would like to be in on every deal. In a lot of ways, you are in a lot of deals moving in different directions. You hope to get [someone] you feel strongly who can help your team."'
Regier shows he's game at deadline
'This season is about one thing: winning the Cup. Anything less will be a failure.'
Zubrus should feel less pressure
'The Lithuanian has enough speed to keep up with Ovechkin, and he has the size to keep the puck from opponents. Zubrus is 6-foot-4, 227 pounds, making him the second-largest Sabre behind Andrew Peters (6-4, 230).'
Biron relishes opportunity
'"There's a bit of sadness when you look back on all these years," Biron said. "I met my wife in Buffalo, my two kids were born here. It's where I made my home. There's definitely a lot of history there. But am I excited? Yes. It's going to be fun."'
Regier rolls the dice for Sabres
'No general manager likes to trade draft picks, but it makes more sense for a team that feels it is on the brink of winning a Stanley Cup. This could be Buffalo's best chance yet to do it.'
Sabres GM trades for a shot to win Stanley Cup
'"We thought it was very important," Regier said. "And all you have to do is look at the trade center and a lot of teams felt it was important. You want to be able to help your team."'
Biron Departure Leaves Fans Disappointed
'"But at the same time, he's got to find his own way somewhere else."'
Buffalo 6, Toronto 1
'"It makes sense that the locker room wouldn't be disrupted with Marty leaving because it's how he kept it. He brought the locker room together," Miller said. "We all learned a lot from Marty and how to handle yourself. He was always positive. We're kind of talking about the guy like he's died."'

text: The first year I followed the Pistons was 1995. I watched the National Televised Pistons games in the late 80's and early 90's like any casual television basketball fan, but the first year I really followed the team was when I moved to Ypsilanti in 1995. Their Championship years fading into the past, the 1995 Pistons were in full rebuild mode. They had a few promising young players: Lindsey Hunter, Grant Hill, Allan Houston, and Micheal Curry; a couple of rooks: Don Reid and Theo Ratliff; and Veteran Leadership: Joe Dumars, Otis Thorpe. Coach: Don Reid. How would you compare the talent of the 1995 Pistons to the 2010 Pistons? Position by position, include management if you have the time.

AMES, Iowa — This month's Iowa Learning Farms webinar, Aug. 20 at 11:30 a.m., features Ajay Nair with Iowa State University Department of Horticulture. He will discuss the use of cover crops in conjunction with vegetable production.The webinar is part of a free series, hosted by ILF, through Adobe Connect. The webinars are held on the third Wednesday of each month. They are free and all that is needed to participate is a computer with Internet access.
Nair will discuss the use of cover crops in conjunction with vegetable production. Using cover crops in commercial crop production, whether it is row crops such as corn and soybeans or vegetables, or even vegetable gardens, creates healthy and productive soil, supplying nutrients for plant growth and building soil organic matter. Nair's presentation will provide information on some traditional and non-traditional cover crops that can be successfully integrated into vegetable cropping systems.
Nair is an assistant professor, working in the area of sustainable vegetable production in the Department of Horticulture at Iowa State University. The focus of his research, extension and education program is on cover cropping, nutrient management, soil amendments and health, and season extension strategies in vegetable production. He also has an interest in local food production and works on production aspects and techniques needed to meet the rising demand for locally grown produce.
To connect to the webinar, go to https://connect.extension.iastate.edu/ilf/ at 11:30 a.m. on the morning of the webinar and log on using the "guest" option.
ILF has hosted a monthly webinar since January 2011. The ILF website has links for archived webinars from all previous sessions at http://www.extension.iastate.edu/ilf/Webinars/. Forty webinars are available to view on a variety of topics including soil erosion, cover crops and farmer perspectives. These can be viewed at any time. The webinar archives also are available in podcast through iTunes.

Discussion in 'Great Skate Debate' started by pat c, Oct 29, 2011.
Has that been announced yet?
You are kidding right?
First they have to find someone to take it....
My bet... Lake Placid which seems willing to take it anytime (Of course when it was last in Lake Placid I went to TEB... it was cheaper, easier to get to and actually took LESS travel time!)
I wondered. Thanks.
Well that sucks.
Well, the USFSA seems to announce locations of future competitions earlier than Skate Canada. And since Skate Canada is announcing next year's location tomorrow, patc's question seems quite reasonable.
Please Lake Placid. PLEASE!! (Or hartford or boston or even reading)
Please NOT Lake Placid! Somewhere with an airport please!
Lake Placid gets a JGP in August 2012, I doubt they would get both that and SA.
Really, anything within driving distance of NYC is good, even if it's Bum****, PA.
I don't follow the Candian Federation.
Last year Skate Amerca was announed in the late spring
Just because Canada gets organized, doesn't mean the US is.
It's a reasonable question! It's just that the USFS really belives "it doesn't matter what we do fans will put up with it!" (Looking at the Skate America attendance brings that thought into question) They fail to realize that "planning ahead" would allow fans to plan to. Just look we now know where 2012 Skate Canada is. Worlds' 2013 is selling a pay plan for tickets. USFS has not announced 2013 Nationals.... For a lot of US citizens it's just as easy to go to 2013 Worlds and we have limited funds for skating. If the Canadians are more organized they get the funds..
Wonder why USFS doesn't get this?
Reading would be AWESOME. Unless SA is during my fall break, I'd be at school and only 45 minutes away!! But I'd also take Boston or Hartford if I'm home, lol.
2013 U. S. Nationals will be in Omaha, Nebraska. I think the announcement was made in April of this year, so nearly 2 years in advance. Although it's potentially helpful to know even farther ahead of time, I do not miss the days when the announcement came 3 years in advance, tickets went on sale almost immediately, and 100% payment was required at time of order.
US Nationals is always announced almost 2 years in advance. I've read much kvetching over my years online about how USFS sells tickets so far in advance.
2013 US Nationals was announced a long time ago. Omaha.
I thought they "withdrew" that announcement and it wasn't offical yet? Hopefully I am wrong. That's not a bad lead in. In that case I owe USFS an apology. I can live with anything over 18 months or so. Actually I could live with a year or even less. The risk to USFS is that while they are waiting others "spend thier cash" They are in competition with other skating events and just "life" for money and time which I don't think they get. Especially with something like Skate America. I think they need more time to market and "lock" those attendees in.
I think everyone KNEW months before it was in Omaha, but they spent several months "dancing" around LOL! (When you asked at last years event you were told "we have no idea" but folks in Omaha were saying "it's us!" )
i'll go back to reading but someone has to be proactive and make sure i dont get stuck in a hooker hotel this time. i'm pretty sure jamsey and i witnessed a murder/kidnapping.
The USFS press release for the local announcement of 2013 Nationals is dated 4/28/11:
The 2011 Skate America location announcement was pretty late -- March 3, 2011: http://www.usfsa.org/Story.asp?id=45812&type=news
Come on, Everett!
Ooh really? That is great news! I'm so there!
Yeah, or Portland.
Portland was good...
Greensboro or DC... I'm soooo there!!
I'd be happy with any city on the east coast where SW flies (just not Reading). I doubt they'd put it in a large city like DC, given the poor turnout this year, but George Mason U's arena in Fairfax, VA might be a good spot. Or they could use Northeastern U's arena in Boston.
But please let it be somewhere near civilization - not Lake Placid!
Baltimore would be great! There are lots of things to do within walking distance of the Inner Harbor!
My parents went to a gospel concert at George Mason (Patriot Center) and they complained that they couldn't find any restaurants nearby to eat dinner.
Then I guess they wouldn't like Reading. Not only was there nothing around the arena, there was nothing at or around the hotel, either. Hotel stopped serving at something like 9 or 10 (and that included room service). When we checked in, there was a sign at the front desk that said the restaurant was open until midnight, but it turned out that was only for those with credentials. I was so pissed off, I wrote a complaint on the corporate Sheraton website, which got us a free stay.
I hope to never return to Reading.
It would be awesome if it were in Baltimore, but the arena is not suitable.
I vote for Phoenix.
I vote for Columbus or Cincinnati.
NOT on the West Coast, please. SA and the Championships both in CA this year is just too hard for those in the East. It makes no sense to not share the events around the country to me.
I didn't go to SA because I'm going to San Jose.
Lake Placid is so nice to attend events despite the travel challenges. However, putting it in a place with an airport does make sense. Portland is a great place for skating but we went there last year. Give it a rest.
I suggest Hartford, Colorado Springs or Denver, Atlanta, Orlando, Tampa, Miami, Dallas, Philly, Boston, St Louis or anywhere not West since it's been West for two years! Last time SA was East it was in Lake Placid.
Of course, Indianapolis would do very nicely. Great facilities, hotels and restaurants all within walking distance. 20 Minute drive for me
That sucks. I'm sorry you had a bad experience. I went to SA there a few years back and had a great time, and ate like a pig all over the place, in fact just thinking about the huge Amish meal we had one day makes me feel full! Lol so .... I guess it just goes to show, sometimes things are just a little off.
I think it's great that Lalique is always at bercy right in downtown Paris, although I have no idea how they afford to keep it up. It's always 60% empty when I go. Maybe polo or something can fund SA to always be at mad sq garden. Lol but personally I wouldn't mind if it was permanently at lp. Sure, one has to drive a few hours into the mts, but everyone always acts like getting there is an odyssey. It's not.

Israel stands at a momentous time in its history when an opportunity for peace with Arab nations is now possible. However, to seize the ring of reconciliation will require imagination and trust on the part of the nation's leaders. Unfortunately, the Netanyahu government is more concerned with votes and politics than their nation's security. His Cabinet agree with the prime minister that construction of hundreds of new houses in the West Bank would begin even as Israel promised the American government there would be a settlement housing freeze.
Netanyahu has made clear housing construction will continue in east Jerusalem. As one Israel government official commented: "the postponement in construction is a strategic delay. We won't give up on building in Jerusalem and will still build hundreds of construction units." These are not the words of peace. Continued housing construction in the west bank and east Jerusalem make it difficult for moderate Muslim leaders to win over their people. Israel will construct houses on illegally seized land and proclaim it is necessary to achieve peace. Of course, the houses will hinder peace.

I love the idea of LoopMash! It innovative design and workflow! Really nice!
However, as long you don't implement copy and paste, importing/exporting and midi support this will not be useful at all... Just something to play around with when you're bored, which works indeed! But I want to be able to use this on loops I've created in beatmaker or nanostudio for example then copy and paste it back!

I rather have him than Barky, but W was disappointing in many ways.
"W" was a crook, yet--- barkie is a crook, thief, liar and a TRAITOR!
no love lost for the "W"--but people are beginning to call the GWB era--"the good old days"--even though they seemed to suck at the time.
hell-- i just got some interesting real world data today. you ain't going to see this in the media either cause it goes against "the economy is wonderful !" that the media is cramming down our throats every day--
1-5 US children are going HUNGRY nationwide-- and in areas hit hard by the recession that number is now 1 in 4!-- so hungry children ratio has gone up to 25% since obamma was re-elected. an increase of 20% in hungry children since last year. --these stats don't even follow adults and homeless people --no telling what they are.
and it is in the USA-- not africa, or the ME,
i do know that local food banks are running DRY--
there was some hungry kids around during the "w" days i'm sure-- but TODAY their fricking obvious--
most of these kids are from white working class families too. they being US citizens can't get food stamps because they still have a home--
lots of fat illegals thanks to the EBT system though.
and here i am eating fried chicken , squash, okra , tomatos, fresh pinto beans--LOL
hell i need to go on a diet---
I don't miss him much , but I sure do miss Mr Reagen !!
I can't think of any politicians that I miss & I go back to the Harry Truman days!
GAWD Bradrock,,, you are an old fug,,,, I didn't realize people lived to be your age!!! :smilie_sc:lol::lol:
+1 Ronnie!
hell i saw the big "W" on TV sunday.
he is a MORON-- he wants to send US troops everywhere to AFRICA and the ME-- , hell him and McCain must be "bunk-buddies" on globalism.
hell he sounds a lot like the big "O" nut on giving away the store too.
he only don't suck as bad IF you compare him directly to Obongo and his faked up birth cert,education and background.

text: Somewhere there in the mire of that ugly first quarter a real basketball game broke out. It was a long time coming. The ball moved, players moved rather than watched - in Q2 - Q4 the Pistons scored at a 113 PPG pace. Nice to finally see some shots dropping. Mostly nice to see the offense play to its strengths rather than to the strengths of the Boston defense. I loved the last couple of minutes when scorers on both teams just got it done, trading baskets back and forth. And that, at least for the Ps, it was a different guy every possession. The key now is not to let up at home. Without the next two, this series may not be winnable. Hey, I like JVG too.

'"Overall, his transition has been good," Sabres coach Lindy Ruff said. "At times it's been tough on him. But the NHL is one more step up from the AHL. From a points standpoint, you're happy [with his production]. I think he had a period of time where he was pretty frustrated with not scoring. The opportunities were there, but they didn't go in. He's been able to battle through that."'

Citation: Callahan, A.M., Scorza, R., Dardick, C.D. 2009. Characterization of 'Stoneless': A naturally occurring, partially stoneless plum cultivar. Journal of the American Society for Horticultural Science. 134:120-125. Interpretive Summary: Plums and all other stone fruit, such as cherries, peaches and apricots, contain a hard stone that surrounds the seed collectively known as the pit. This pit is removed from fruit that are processed as dried, frozen or canned at a large expense to the industry and hence, the consumer. Over 100 years ago, several cultivars of plum were produced by Luther Burbank that were stoneless, though at the present time, they are partially stoneless. As a preliminary step in producing 'pitless' stonefruit, germplasm from Burbank's program was analyzed to determine the reason for the stoneless phenotype. Two hypotheses were explored (the stone tissue did not harden or the stone tissue was not present). Fruit from 'Stoneless' and normal control plums were collected during the normal stone hardening time. The fruit were cut open and photographed with and without a staining solution that stained lignin, the material that stone tissue makes that becomes hard. There appeared to be less of the lignin staining material in the 'Stoneless' than other normal cultivars. This was confirmed by measuring the weight of that tissue relative to the control tissue, with 'Stoneless' containing approximately half the amount of lignin producing tissue. Gene activity of the genes that make lignin was measured in the stone tissue of both the 'Stoneless' and normal plum, and appeared to be normal in the 'Stoneless'. This lead to the conclusion that less stone tissue is present in the fruit resulting in a nearly stoneless fruit. This information will be used to identify the gene(s) responsible for determining how much stone tissue is made with the goal of eliminating all the stone tissue to make a completely stoneless fruit.
Technical Abstract: A plum (Prunus domestica L.) variety called 'Stoneless' was characterized to determine if the lack of stone was the result of reduced endocarp development or a decrease in lignification, the process that renders stones hard. Fruit were sampled from 24 days after 50% bloom (DAB) until stone hardening occurred and compared with plum fruit that had normal stones. By 24 DAB and throughout stone hardening (~50 DAB), there was less endocarp tissue and reduced lignin staining in the 'Stoneless' plum fruit. The tissue that did stain was associated with a layer that appeared to be under-represented in the 'Stoneless' plum. The presumed stone tissue was concentrated at the suture side and at the blossom end, as well as, the stem end. The lignin stain was concentrated in these regions beginning at 38 DAB through stone hardening, while the normal plums had a progression of staining beginning at the blossom end, suture side at 38 DAB and radiating up to the stem end and through-out the presumptive stone tissue just prior to stone hardening at 50 DAB. Comparison of wet weight and dry weight for dissected tissues agreed with the specific lack of stone tissue in the 'Stoneless' plum. Gene activity for the lignin pathway was analyzed using four known genes required for lignification. Expression was decreased in the 'Stoneless' whole fruit but was present in the remaining stone tissue. These results confirm that 'Stoneless' plum contains a unique alteration in a gene(s) that controls endocarp formation rather than affecting the lignification of the stone tissue.

Van Zeeland Leads Green Bay to First Horizon League Win
By: Ryan Hartwig (@RyanHartwig)
GREEN BAY, Wis. (GreenBayPhoenix.com) - The Green Bay volleyball team (8-6, 1-1) closed out its opening weekend of Horizon League play Saturday afternoon with a 3-2 victory over Youngstown State (10-6, 0-2) at the Kress Center. The Phoenix won every other set (25-22, 17-25, 25-22, 23-25, 15-12), picking up its fifth win in the last six matches.
Leah Van Zeeland (Kaukauna, Wis.) had a career day for Green Bay in the win, posting a near triple-double performance. The junior recorded a season-high 18 kills - including four in the deciding fifth set - and also notched new career highs with 21 digs and eight blocks.
"I don't know if everybody realizes just how much Leah means to this team," Green Bay head coach Debbie Kirch said. "She's a jack of all trades. She rarely leads us in anything, but she's usually number two in almost everything. There are just so many things she does for us and I'm really proud of the way she's playing right now."
The Phoenix found itself in an early 3-0 hole to start the fifth and final set, but a timeout sparked a 5-0 run capped off by Van Zeeland's first kill of the set, making it 5-3 Phoenix. Green Bay led 8-4 when the teams switches sides, and another Van Zeeland kill forced a YSU timeout at 9-4.
The Penguins kept it close and trailed just 11-10 after a kill by Alexis Egler, but the Phoenix scored three of the next four points to get a match point chance at 14-11. Jenna Cavanaugh's match-high 19th kill prolonged the contest for YSU at 14-12, but Van Zeeland capped off her exceptional day with the match-clinching kill.
"To gut out a five-set win in the Horizon League, which I think is a very competitive league right now, is always good," Kirch said. "I thought we did a good job keeping our composure throughout the match, and when we needed to win we played our way and finished well."
Green Bay out-hit the Penguins .346 to .176 in the fifth, recording 10 kills and committing just one error while forcing five Penguin miscues. The Phoenix finished the day with a .206 to .186 edge in hitting percentage and out-blocked the Penguins 15-6.
Van Zeeland, who hit an impressive .326 for the match, led four Phoenix players in double-figure kills, as Carmen Leitermann (Schofield, Wis.) had 13, and Monica Anderson (Cottage Grove, Wis.) and Lyndsay Zabkowicz (Oak Creek, Wis.) had 12 apiece.
Junior setter Leah Poel (Jenison, Mich.) had a match-high 48 assists to go along with 15 digs, and Brittany Groth (Oak Creek, Wis.), who entered the contest third in the NCAA in digs per set (5.94), tallied a match-high 31 digs. In addition, three Phoenix players had at least six blocks, as Van Zeeland (8), Leitermann (6) and Katie Mroczenski (New Berlin, Wis.) (6) all had strong days for the Green Bay defense. Mroczenski is now leading the Horizon League in blocks per set (1.15).
Green Bay trailed 15-11 in the opening set, but rallied to take a 20-18 lead following a kill by Anderson. The Phoenix extended its advantage to 22-19, but the Penguins fought back to make it 23-22, forcing Kirch to call a timeout. A Zabkowicz kill gave the Phoenix a set point chance at 24-22, and Zabkowicz finished off the 25-22 win with a big solo block.
It was all Penguins early in set two, as the visitors surged out to an 11-3 lead and held a 23-9 advantage late. The Phoenix mounted a comeback to get it to 24-17, but YSU finished off the 25-17 win to tie the match at 1-1.
The third set was tight throughout, as neither side led by more than four at any point. A kill by Anderson gave the Phoenix a set point opportunity and its largest lead at 24-20, and after two straight kills by YSU's Shannon Watson, Poel found the floor to deliver the 25-22 win.
The Penguins opened up a five-point lead (20-15) in set four after another kill by Watson, but Green Bay stormed back to tie it at 20-20 using strong play on the block. YSU moved back ahead with a 3-0 run of its own, however, and eventually closed out the 25-23 win to send the match to the deciding fifth set.
After playing its first two home matches in nearly a month, the Phoenix next heads back on the road for four straight. Green Bay first takes a break from league play next Wednesday at DePaul (7 p.m.), and then resumes its conference schedule at Milwaukee on Friday (7 p.m.).

KNOXVILLE - Notching her first dual match singles victory, University of Tennessee freshman Ambika Pande sealed the Lady Vols' 4-0 victory over Middle Tennessee Sunday afternoon in the 2014 regular season finale.
Pande captured match point for Tennessee with a 6-2, 6-2 victory at No. 6 singles.
The day started and ended with singles play as Tennessee improved to 13-11 in 2014. Middle Tennessee fell to 10-9.
With all SEC play complete, the Lady Vols have earned the No. 6 seed in the SEC Tournament and will play the winner of the No. 11 vs. No. 14 match between LSU and Mississippi State on Thursday, April 17.
Victoria Olivarez put UT on the board first with a 6-2, 6-1 win at No. 5 singles. After beginning the match 0-2, Olivarez turned on the steam and rallied off eight straight points dropping just one game of the final 13 of her match for the win.
Minutes later, Eve Repic added to the Lady Vols lead with a 7-5, 6-1 victory on court one, her third straight and just moments after that Joanna Henderson made it a 3-0 match with a 6-1, 6-2 win on court two.
The Lady Vols will be back in action in the SEC Tournament this week.
** For seeds 6-9: Auburn, Ole Miss, South Carolina and Tennessee end the season 6-7 in the SEC. Amongst themselves, their records work out to Auburn and Tennessee 2-1 and Ole Miss and South Carolina 1-2, which then reverts to the two-team tiebreaker among the teams tied against each other. Tennessee defeated Auburn in the regular season so Tennessee becomes the #6 seed with Auburn at #7. South Carolina defeated Ole Miss in the regular season so South Carolina is the #8 seed and Ole Miss is the #9 seed.

Lexington began back in 1903 as the Dixie Furniture Company. The success of Henry Ford's assembly line provided the idea to streamline furniture production. In 1940, Dixie introduced the automated conveyor belt—the first time this was done in a furniture company. During the 1950s and 60s, Dixie Furniture branched out into four different divisions focusing on different sectors of the furniture market. This proved to be a rather successful business venture. The four brands were eventually merged into one called Lexington Furniture Industries. Partnering with lifestyle brands such as Tommy Bahama, Lexington became the first company to create the lifestyle retail model that many companies emulate today. Lexington has come a long way in the furniture market, surviving not only the Great Depression but every other economic challenge it has faced. This determination to create great products at prices that budget-conscious consumers can enjoy has helped to keep Lexington up-front and center in today's furniture industry. Read More

Not sure if Cabelas actually makes it but you can get it there...Easy way to serve an appetizer is bbq whole breasts to medium rare (don't over-cook), cut into thin slices and salt/pepper liberally. Dip in mustard and eat! Can be done with goose too and is probably better. Can also be done with regular mustard and diced jalapeno's.
Even works on spoonies, very little duck flavor.

THIS WEEK: Friday, June 14th 2013 @ 7:30 pm
(Rebroadcast Sunday @ 11 am )
"After a two week absence for our KCPT membership drive we are back bright-eyed and bushy-tailed with Kansas City 3 Weeks in Review." – Nick!
MISSION, KS – TRAFFIC TICKET CAPITAL: Is Mission Kansas on a mission to ticket everybody? A front page story in the Kansas City Star this week calls Mission, KS the ticket capital of Kansas. With police issuing more tickets than there are residents. That amounts to almost two tickets an hour, twenty four hours a day. That means you are nine times more likely to be ticketed in Mission than in Overland Park. Eighteen times more likely than if you happened to be driving through Lee's Summit.
BROWNBACK SIGNS INCOME TAX PHASE OUT BILL IN OP: The Kansas Governor also uses his bill signing ceremony in Overland Park to lash out at at Missouri Governor Jay Nixon over the cross-border business battle.
TAX VETO OVERRIDE PLANNED IN MISSOURI: Missouri Republican lawmakers say they will seek to overturn Governor Jay Nixon's recent veto of a massive tax cutting package that include Missouri's first income tax reductions in 90 years.
POWER & LIGHT 5TH ANNIVERSARY: Opened in 2008 the downtown entertainment district is still being subsidized by city taxpayers to the tune of $14.3 million this year.
HALLS DEPARTING PLAZA: After almost a half a century on the Country Club Plaza, Halls is closing its doors. The department store is consolidating its operations at its Crown Center location leaving the Plaza for the first time without a department store. Who will fill Hall's space on the Plaza?
SCHLITTERBAHN GROWTH STUNTED: There's still a lot of barren land instead of shops and tree houses around the perimeter of the Schlitterbahn water park in Wyandotte County, a project that by now was supposed to be a $750 million vacation village.

Lesley's pivotal role in the dissemination of expressive therapies practitioners has created a global movement toward widespread usage of these creative approaches to health and healing.
How does an Ethiopian refugee in Israel find her voice, manage the memories of the pain and fear of her tormentors, the anguish of leaving one's home? Or a soldier cope with the acute memories of a brutal war? How could the feelings that make an autistic child lash out be tempered?
Creative expression -the use of art, music, dance, drama, expressive arts and writing - as a healing force has a history that extends to the Ancient Egyptians. The use of what Lesley professor Shaun McNiff describes as "art-based knowing," or what is more commonly considered expressive or creative arts therapies took a more prominent role in current culture with the advent of psychiatry in the late 1800s/early 1900s, gaining significance throughout the 20th century. Its role in healing is now making a substantial impact as a healing force in mental, emotional and physical healing for thousands of medical facilities, schools and veteran's groups worldwide.
Lesley University's pivotal role in the dissemination of practitioners of the creative arts therapies has in turn created a global movement toward use of ever-more creative approaches to effective, documented treatments as wide ranging as early intervention and adolescent behavioral medicine, breast cancer, HIV, PTSD and dementia.
While as Dr. McNiff, one of the founders of Lesley University's internationally recognized Expressive Therapies degree programs suggests, linear, statistical results-oriented language is not wholly applicable to creative healing structures, given the unique application of each treatment, illness and practitioner, increasingly there is clear usage-based evidence of its robust effect in current culture, crossing age and disabilities. Their success has been seen to produce effects for treatments of child abuse and trauma, for sleep disorders and depression, for people with physical and mental disabilities as well as improvements in concentration, anxiety and possibly suicide prevention. (1)
Lesley University's Expressive Therapies program, one of very few degree programs at its inception, has, through education, encouraged and advanced the active practice of creative arts therapies in over [120] countries. Students specialize in art therapy, dance therapy, drama therapy, expressive arts therapy, or music therapy. In just over 40 years, this little understood mind/body healing practice has become an accomplished, accepted healing force worldwide. As Dr. McNiff notes, "The empirical evidence is staggering. We started something that has spawned a field."
With increased usage and trial, therapies that rely on the creative arts like dance, visual art, music, and writing have been assimilated into facilities such as hospitals, social service organizations, schools and clinics in enormous and varied ways.
While Dr. McNiff, and Lesley's Dr. Vivien Marcow-Speiser - who spearheaded the creation of Lesley's Israel extension school – were among the few who envisioned the power of creative expression in healing, most academics agree that it was only with the advent of rigorous licensure requirements, effectively setting professional guidelines, as key to medical and cultural acceptance of the use of therapy as a treatment option. Today, with multiple associations and licensure guidelines to follow, creative therapies are offered at universities around the world and practiced at an unprecedented level.
"We – our alumni and students - are out there doing the work, watching its effects. We've been working with Perkins School for the Blind for decades. We've helped Boston bombing victims, soldiers coming back from the war, and our graduates are taking that skill and knowledge back out into the field," says Dr. Michele Forinash, Director of the Doctoral Program and Division Director in Expressive Therapies at Lesley.
As the neuroscience behind this mind and body connection develops, practitioners point to the sheer act of engagement in a creative process, what Dr. Forinash calls "the act of doing it," that enables the healing. Studies tracking brain changes during these engagements point to an alteration in brain functions, which may contribute to the relearning of key skills and mental, emotional, and physical healing.
Applications of some form of the expressive arts therapies are evident throughout various cultures, helping to provide relief in acute emotional and behavioral cases such as Posttraumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD).PTSD is defined as "an anxiety disorder that can develop after exposure to a terrifying event or ordeal in which grave physical harm occurred or was threatened."
The trauma that PTSD sufferers feel affect all aspect of their lives, from their job functions to personal relationships. Children who suffer can have difficulty in school and experience behavioral issues, isolation, and phobias.
In a recent study with PTSD sufferers, Joshua Smyth, PhD, at Pennsylvania State University, relates the need for and evidence of results with what he calls "alternative therapies" that provide access to sufferers' experience without directly recalling these experiences verbally.
"Each of these approaches allows individuals with PTSD to experience and/or express their thoughts and feelings without necessarily having to verbalize the trauma, share this verbalizing with others, or directly confront the trauma, if they are not ready. Alternative therapies, in general, also focus on creating an environment in which the patient feels safe, and then providing an expressive medium that does not threaten that feeling of safety."(2)
A number of non-traditional creative/expressive therapies have demonstrated at least preliminary effectiveness in reducing PTSD symptoms, reducing the severity of depression (which often accompanies PTSD), and/or improving quality of life. The documented impact of the creative arts therapies for symptoms of trauma and post- traumatic stress disorder have inspired two National Summits on arts and health issues in the military by Walter Reed National Military Medical Center.
In a recent issue of Advances in Psychiatric Treatment, Karen Baikie and Kay Wilhelm outline the emotional and physical health benefits of expressive writing on PTSD sufferers define the argument for Expressive Writing's healing properties. While short term results indicate an increase in distress and negative mood, longer term results show improved citing short-term increases in distress, negative moods and physical symptoms. Longer term outcomes include improved immune system functioning, lower blood pressure, improved moods, liver and lung functions, as well as behavioral improvements which include reduced absenteeism, improved memory, higher grade point averages and less depressive symptoms (3).
Over the past decade, health psychologists have cautiously begun looking at how the arts might be used in a variety of ways to heal emotional injuries, increase understanding of oneself and others, develop a capacity for self-reflection, reduce symptoms, and alter behaviors and thinking patterns.
A study published in the American Journal of Public Health, points to the healing process of music therapy, in particular, in successful treatments of anxiety, in control of chronic cancer pain. There is also evidence of the effectiveness of auditory stimulation, together with a strong suggestion, as a method of adequate pain control.
Among the highlights of the Journal piece, the writers point toward the role of music to calm neural activity in the brain. Citing a study by R.E. Krout called "Music listening to facilitate relaxation and promote wellness: (it) integrated aspects of our neurophysiological responses to music." Krout suggests that music may go so far as to restore the effective functioning in the immune system partly via the actions of the amygdala and hypothalamus:
'The activity levels of neurons in the central nucleus of the amygdala decrease in response to calming effects of music, there may be corresponding reductions in the signals being sent to other parts of the brain."
More evidence hints at the arts therapies effectiveness to aid in physical healing and preventative treatments through management of stress. Krout cites a study of patients admitted to a coronary care unit with acute myocardial infarction in which the author attributes the relaxation imbued through music therapy as effective in reducing stress that significantly decreases debilitating heart disease.
Stress is a major factor in treatment of cancer. Women in one study described ongoing cancer-related difficulties such as fear, pain, sleeplessness, role loss, activity restriction, reduced self-confidence, and altered social relationships.
When subjects engaged in different types of visual art – working in textiles and card-making, collages, pottery, or in paint – the cancer patients were focused more on "positive life experiences" than on their condition. They felt greater self-worth as the experience as it set them at work toward a goal, and provided a social identity beyond that of being a "cancer patient." In the very act of "doing" these women, overall, found a place of expression that, for women in the midst of chemotherapy, words could not provide.
Dr. Vivien Marcow-Speiser spearheaded Lesley University's Netanya, Israel extension in the 1980's.
An early collaborator with Dr. McNiff in the establishment of Lesley's Cambridge graduate degree programs, her early work in dance therapy treatments in Israel convinced her of the relevance and effectiveness of this "act of doing" and self-expression. "It was clear that those who practiced these dance, music, and art therapies (the earliest of established treatments) began to witness the transformations. "The sense of ease, of expression, the palpable relief people received was undeniable."
It was this hands-on experience that convinced her of the palpability of the program's goals at a time when scholarship had little to stand behind it. "When we went out to do placements, no one did it. We the students became the innovators."
The Israeli Extension program, while no longer in existence, left a lasting legacy behind for the country. In its 34 years (well over half the life of the country) the program was able to, in the words of Dr. Marcow-Speiser "influence the development of the creative arts therapy field in Israel, where almost half of the country's 5,000 creative arts therapists have been educated at Lesley." Given the numbers of roughly 15,000 creative arts therapists in the USA to roughly 313,9 million people (2012), and 5,000 creative arts therapists to 7,908 million in Israel (2012), the number of therapists in Israel is really quite impressive.
Alumni of the program practice worldwide as therapeutic practitioners and scholars find increasingly new ways to enable healing in realms that were, 40 years ago, little understood. According to Dr. Forinash, "the students we're graduating are leaders in their field."
The Expressive Therapies field is thriving, as evidence for its effectiveness mounts and neuroscience gains a better understanding of the mind/body connection. "Our goal," Dr. Forinash says, "is to provide treatment and care to as many people as we can help, through whatever methods allow us to reach them and aid them most effectively."

Boswell v. Boswell
Our Sponsors
In a 1996 ruling in the divorce of Robert Glenn Boswell and his wife, Kimberly, a Maryland court severely restricted Boswell's visits with his two young children solely because he was gay. Boswell was not allowed overnight visits with his child, nor any visits in the presence of his partner or "anyone having homosexual tendencies." In 1997, an appeals court found that these restrictions — which neither the children's mother, the social worker assigned to the case, nor the children's psychologist had requested-had been an abuse of court discretion. In 1998, Maryland's highest court agreed, ruling that a parent's sexual orientation alone is not a basis for determining the best interests of the children regarding custody and visitation.
This decision was part of a national trend in which courts began to move away from using antigay bias or stereotypes as a basis for visitation and custody judgments.
Lambda Legal's Impact
Lambda Legal represented Boswell for both of his appeals, achieving an important victory for the rights of gay and lesbian parents in Maryland.
- 1996 The divorce court severely limits Robert Glenn Boswell's visits with his two children.
- 1997 Maryland's Court of Special Appeals reverses the lower court's decision.
- 1998 The Court of Appeals, the state's highest court, agrees with the Court of Special Appeals.

|Topic Review (Newest First)
|You gents seem to be very knowleagable in the field of paint. Not to be off topic but what kind of paint was used by general motors in the 80s.. specifically 1982-1987 c10 truck line? I thought acrylic enamel was used.. however i have been told perhaps it was lacquer.
So what base coats are polyurethane? Perhaps I'm misled/confused by this whole post.
My prospray sitting here is 1:1, but it says acrylic urethane on it. Does this only apply to clears and SS's?
|Can anyone give some info on this cross linked polyurehthane? thanks
So you can add resins with the "mixing clear" to the toners in the formula and make a true polyurethane because you are simply adding different resin making it "poly"?
************************************************** ********
I remember using SW U7000 system and when we had to touch up a chip etc. I would mix up the color in a small cup with the single stage mixing clear(binder) in stead of b/c mixing clear. Add urethane reducer in stead of b/c stabilizer, a drop of smoothie a drop of urethane hardener and touched up. The paint would come out glossy not flat looking like b/c and it would harden up and stick like s/s.
Help, I am confused?
I am building a street rod. I have happily used Rustoleum Stops Rust Automobile Primer (2081). Now I am getting ready to paint. Nobody knows what kind of topcoat is compatible with this primer. Rustoleum says that it should be compatible with most auto paint except maybe lacquer. Do I need to put a primer/sealer on top of it? If yes, what do I use? Is this primer compatible with urethane, polyurethane, epoxy, and acrylic enamel paints?
What is the real difference between enamel, urethane, and polyurethane? I see the word acrylic used also. Some are oil based, some are water based, and some are solvent based. This is really confusing. What are the pro's and con's of each one of them.
I am not looking for a show car, just a nice looking driver so I can attend rallys and rod runs. It has been suggested that I use an acrylic enamel and then top coat it with a clear urethane.
Some one help this old man. It used to be simple, enamel or lacquer depending on how much work you want to do.
Barry, I never was paid bonus off of GP, it was increase in sales, period.
The only time GP on a partiular product was ever mentioned was that we were told to only "give away" core products. If something was to be comped it was to be a solvent or clear. Other than that, it had nothing to do with our job.
I thank you very much for the explainations, it really clears a lot up. Brian

Yes, that would be a "cross linked poly" Not best but OK!
************************************************** **
That makes a lot of sense and clears up that for me. If a certain resin is in the toners already, that may not be possible if I understand correctly. The toners on that UTech system for instance are a "Virgin" toner with no particular direction in technology. You add the resins to make it a lacquer, enamel or Polyurethane, right?
Yes, a great idea! But now that ****kins bought them, its probably messed up by now! I meant Sikkens sorry for the error!
Is this like the S-W "Dimension" line? On the same bank you make synthetic enamel, base coat, acrylic enamel, and SS urethane. I found it to be a pretty good system. They have some problems with slow cure times but over all I thought it was pretty user friendly.
But back to the mixing ratios, they really don't mean a whole lot when it comes to determining if they are poly or just urethane because of the different amounts of iso's that "could" be in the hardener right?
************************************************** **
Thats right, want to make a real profit? Take a urethane and make it a 3:1 mix. Now you have 3 gallons of clear instead of 4 and the hardener is diluted with very profitable solvents.
This would pay a lot of bonus to you rich sales people!

Hey Barry, thank you very much for "learning me" on this subject. It really clears up a lot I never got into when I was repping.
All of them start out as Polyester (lacquer) or Enamel. and than taken from there as far as if blender is in the tints or added later,
THATS where the magic is in the blender of course if its mixed with the tints to start with your more limited. One of the most unique systems was the UTech system. You may have seen it system was pure tint. so off one system you could make laquer or polyurethane!!
Ok, you have cleared up a lot on the linking, if I am understanding what you are saying that is. Tell me if I am wrong.
A polyurethane has "many" resins, thus many different molecules to link, right? I see a urethane as let's say black and white marbles covering the floor with strings going from one to another. Then polyurethane as black, white, red and blue marbles covering the floor with strings going from every white one to every other color and every red one to every other color and so on. Am I on the right track?
Ok, if I am on the right track that is great. But now with the confusion. You say that a urethane would have a 4:1 mixing ratio with hardener and a polyurethane would have a 2:1, 3:1 or 1:1 ratio, or do you mean the ratio with iso molecules?
Because if you mean with hardener, S-W acrylic urethanes use a 3:1 ratio. And by the way, you mentioned PPG "Concept" SS in that other thread implying it was a polyurethane. But it is advertised as a acyrlic urethane, not a poly.
If you are talking about the mixing ratio with hardener, how do you know how much Isos are in said hardener by wieght or volume or what ever? Couldn't a pint of hardener from one brand or product line have a different amount of isos than another pint from another line or brand?
Ok, next question, I mentioned this in the first post. Many of these products like IMRON and S-W Genisis and PPG Delta have dedicated mixing banks. The toners and hardeners are not used with any other system. This makes sense, as far as the name it is called actually being believable. Genisis is called a "true" acrylic urethane while IMRON as I remember is a polyurethane and Delta, I don't remember, I think it is just refered to as a "urethane". Anyway, ok, they have a dedicated system.
What about something like Chromaone, Concept, or TecONE they are mixed off a mixing bank which also provides the base coats, interior colors, (with S-W a number of different urethane SS) and even acrylic enamel on some of them. All these systems use ALL the same toners for all the "qualities". All of these systems are basically, acrylic enamel systems! Yet with a different mixing clear or "drier" or something they magically become an "Acrylic urethane"?
The terms are misused on a regular bases.
Unfortunately there are no Urethane police.
Your ex-company is one of the very worst for playing games with the name.
In short a true polyurethane resin will have good flexibility and NEVER need a flex agent.
In short if you look at Acrylic urethane under a microscope you see the resin structure looks like a ladder (in short terms)
A polyurethane will look like an over reinforced (many times) house Gable.
Activation of Polyurethane will be 3:1, 2:1 or 1:1 as it takes more isocyanate's to lock the product down where an acrylic urethane can be activated all day long with a 4:1 mix.
Polyurethanes usually end up with a 2 pencil hardness witch is softer than an acrylic urethane, so this gives it much more stone chip resistance and a lot better adhesion.
Polyurethanes will be much more resistance to harsh chemicals and that is why on jets its a requirement.
Up until 8-9 years ago Polyurethanes were very hard to buff and to lay with out orange peel was almost impossible except where you ran it.
This has all changed as there is no longer a spraying difference
between the resin systems, if the company is using newer resins.
A well made Polyurethane will also have more clarity(cleaner gloss) than an acrylic and most true with excess coats such as
custom painting.
Another benefit is is easier to make a polyurethane to buff good even 30-60 days later where a lot of clears after 3-5 days forget it on the buffing. Not all polyurethanes are easy to buff 30 days after painting but it can be done if the company wants to put the effort into it. This is very important for restoration as were painting the car in pieces off the frame and it may be 60 days before the car is put together and can be wet-sanded and buffed.
Enamel vs Urethane vs Polyurethane????
Barry, you responded to a post of mine on orange peel with the comment...
You are right to question the mils.
This is a major factor with acrylic urethanes BUT NOT a factor with Polyurethanes.
Now don't confuse what I said with "cross-linked poly's=(enamel with a polyurethane hardener) Not same ball game."
Ok, what in the heck is the difference? I understand the "poly" means "Many". My understanding is that simply means "Many" urethane resins are used. How does this make a difference in how it is "cross linked". I thought any product with a hardener is going to "cross link", even epoxy will "Cross link", creating a new compound. That is what I thought at least.
Acrylic urethane, Polyurethane, "just" Urethane. These names seem to be put on just about anything and it seems it is the marketing of the product more than the chemical make up that dictates it. They seem to be interchangable sometimes. Well, not the "Polyurethane". But for instance, S-W has a high end SS product for fleets it is called an "Acrylic Urethane". This EXACT same product is sold with a different label on the can in a "value line" and is labeled simply "Urethane". The "Polyurethanes" are mixed off the same mixing bank as the base coats (which are simply acrylic enamel) with only a change in drier (if used) and "mixing clear" or "binder" and they are magically transformed into a "polyurethane". This includes the PPG "Concept" we were talking about.
PLEASE clear this up for all of us, what makes the difference between a Polyurethane and an Acrylic Urethane? And why does it cure different?
I know there is a difference but I sware, the names are thrown around by marketing and make no sense.

After having carried my Stoeger Cougar in a Crossbread Super Tuck for the last year, I decided I needed something a little smaller for every day carry.
I love my Cougar and will keep it forever but this Kimber combo is fantastic. It gets put on in the morning and sits in the IWB TT Gunleather hoslter all day. No discomfort at all and it's practically invisible tucked IWB.
Anyway, this is my first 1911 and I'm a very happy camper.

SensFloor for 3D game control by means of PS2 keyboard commands. Compatible with any PC software, which is based on configurable standardized PS2/USB-keyboard commands. An adaption to customer software is possible. Multimedia- and game control is based on SensFloor mats or on large-area SensFloor to be installed beneath conventional floor covering. SensFloor mats can be produced in arbitrary sizes and with various coverings based on customer's demand.
The underlay can also be delivered with double sided adhesive foil to be attached beneath wall-mounted posters and pictures. The customer can cut the sensor layer in any geometry according to which the sensor system adapts automatically. For individual large-area interactive installations we can produce a sensor layer in customer-defined geometries.
We gladly support you in the design of a SensFloor action area and we program an individual application for you.
SensFloor is "Made in Germany".

dear MT, FU.
This is one of the most BS articles i've seen in a while. These are family sedans and should be tested and rated as such. If you're going to conduct a full series of test base on what makes these vehicles excellent family sedans than trow away all those virtues and make your final selection based on the single one thing that matters least in this class of vehicle, why bother at all? Also if the most important thing about these cars is which is the best driver's car then why not choose an Accord Sport which has a slightly more powerful engine, better grippier tires and a 6 speed manual transmission which non of the other can match.
