A Walk in the Park
A Walk in the Park
On a day like today, you almost have to schedule at least a little time outside. We've been waiting for weeks for our "sunny and warm" Spring season to arrive. Finally it is here.
Both Monday and Tuesday will be beautiful days with sunny to partly cloudy skies and afternoon highs in the 70s and 80s. In fact, on Tuesday - folks in the River Valley may think it's a little too warm as highs there will be in the upper 80s.
I put a few temperatures down for you in the event you wanted to head to the park during your outdoor time. The best days to head out will be today, tomorrow, or Friday because on Wednesday and Thursday we will likely see scattered showers.
Have a great day.

Checking In On… the Missouri Valley ConferencePosted by Brian Goodman on January 18th, 2012
Patrick Marshall is the RTC correspondent for the Missouri Valley Conference. You can also find his musings online at White & Blue Review or on Twitter @wildjays.
Reader's Take
The Week That Was:
- A Two-Team Race: With Missouri Valley Conference play starting with a frenzy of surprises, there continue to be some additional shockers, just not at the top of the league. Creighton and Wichita State continue to win and are both tied for the league lead at 6-1. What has probably been more of a surprise is the inconsistent play of the teams below the Bluejays and the Shockers. Missouri State, Northern Iowa, Indiana State and Evansville have all been inconsistent while Drake has gone 3-0 in this most recent stretch of games.
- McDermott Hits 1,000: Creighton's Doug McDermott went over 1,000 points on Sunday night in only his 57th game of his career. That is amazing for only being halfway through his sophomore season. Creighton's all-time leading scorer, Rodney Buford, took 59 games to get to the 1,000 point mark. McDermott's teammate, Antoine Young, was honored earlier this season after scoring his 1,000th point. The difference in this case is that it took Young more than three full seasons to hit that milestone. McDermott isn't looking to be slowing down anytime soon.
- Ahead of the Pac-12: The MVC as a conference sits at #8 in the RPI positioning them ahead of the Pac-12 and just behind the A-10 and the Mountain West. Five teams are in the top 100 of the RPI with Creighton leading the way at #21. Northern Iowa and Wichita State are not far behind at numbers #30 and #31, respectively. The last time the MVC had more than two teams in the top 40 of the RPI was in 2005-06 and five of the league's teams were in the final RPI rankings. Everyone except for Southern Illinois is under #200.
Power Rankings (last week's rankings in parentheses)
With some separation happening, there is a battle currently going on in the middle of the conference.
- Creighton (16-2, 6-1) (1)—After the setback to Missouri State to start conference play, Creighton has been steady and winning ever since. They are now 7-1 on the road this season including six of those being "true" road games. Their road win total is double what they had last season. They also have four wins against teams in the top 50 of the RPI (Northwestern, San Diego State, Wichita State , and Northern Iowa). The media still loves talking about how Doug McDermott ended up at Creighton and stepped out of the shadows of Harrison Barnes. Read the rest of this entry »

Monday at Huntsville courthouse
Six Randolph County officials were sworn in shortly after noon Monday in the Randolph County Justice Center at Huntsille.
Despite adverse weather conditions, a number of relatives and friends attended the special ceremony. At the time, snow was falling in the area and highways and roads were snow-covered. By the end of the day, about four-six inches of snow was recorded.
The only new official for Randolph County is Mary Jo Colley, who was elected to the post of public administrator during the general election in November. Colley ran unopposed on the Republican ticket.
She replaces Martha Creed, who did not seek re-election and is retiring after holding the office of public administrator on two different occasions.
To commence the ceremonies, Judge Cynthia Suter swore in Circuit Judge Scott A. Hayes, who won re-election.
Randolph County Clerk Will Ellis then swore in Wayne Wilcox and Jerry Crutchfield as commissioners. Wilcox, a Republican, and Crutchfield, a Democrat, were also re-elected in November.
Sheriff Mark Nichols, a Democrat, who won re-election in a landslide over two Independents, was sworn in by Ellis with Ladean King holding the Bible. She works in the sheriff's office.
Coroner Gerald Luntsford's wife, Wanda, held the Bible for his swearing in as coroner. Luntsford, a Republican, was also returned to his post in November. He did not have opposition in the general election.
Mrs. Colley, a Republican, was sworn-in by Clerk Ellis. Retiring public administrator held the Bible while Colley took the oath.
The other elected official, Assessor Richard Tregnago, will be sworn-in in August.

Basking in the morning sun, a blue dasher dragonfly "recharges" his flight muscles for a busy day ahead - mostly comprised of a couple hundred laps around the pond at Zilker Botanical here in Austin. Dragonflies are voracious carnivores and I've read they can consume their weight in various small insects in about 30 minutes time ... sorta the way I wish my metabolism could handle a tray of freshly baked raspberry-filled donuts.. :)
Have a Happy Tuesday!

I had some card making fun recently with Fancy Pants' "Be Loved" collection. This collection encompasses some of my favorite things creatively right now: tags, pink, blue, and gray (to name a few). And like it's name suggests, it's perfect for making love cards for your favorite person (and not just on Valentine's Day!)
Using tags to make cards is one of my favorite shortcuts, and "Be Loved" has great tag sets with it that are perfect for cards. I couldn't resist!

Qatar World Cup 2022
Posted by OSM Guy December 10, 2010
Last week's World Cup selections generated a great deal of baseless commentary from the soccer-snubbed all over the world, and I was hoping to find a way to educate Americans including myself on the country that was chosen ahead of us in the final vote. Fortunately for us, a dear friend and classmate from the DeVos Sport Business Management program, Nathan Semones, was able to accommodate. Nathan's parents have been living in Doha, Qatar for the past three and a half years. His sports cred includes stops at Madison Square Garden and Conference USA, as well as consulting projects for Wasserman Media Group and the Pittsburgh Pirates. Without further ado, I am very excited to introduce the work of the very first guest blogger on OSM Guy….

Asked for male, 22 years old from Delhi
I have receding gums, swollen gums and every morning when I wake up, my mouth is filled with saliva and blood. Whats the solution to piorreah?
Consult your dentist for Oral Prophylaxis and then maintain your oral hygiene by brushing twice daily (ask the correct technique from your doctor) and use of chlorhexidine based non alcoholic mouthwash with proper dilution or as recommended by your doctor. Treatment of receding gums will be based on the extent of recession.

It begins when bacteria inflicts damage on the hard surface of the tooth and destruction will spread in the deeper layer if left unchecked.It happens when sugars aren't cleaned off your teeth, bacteria feeds on them and produces acid. Acids wear away the first layer of tooth (enamel) and spreads in more deeper layer eventually causing decay and cavity.

RICHMOND, VA (WWBT) – The James River in Richmond is teeming with life -- and in one hidden section downtown the proof is right in front of your eyes.
The Great Blue Heron rookery is in full view from the Pipeline Rapids Walkway. It's only a few blocks from the Virginia State Capitol but it feels like you are a world away.
Pipeline is a treat for bird lovers, especially when you like to see the action up close.
"It's a really unique experience to be right here in the middle of the city, and to see all this natural activity going on," said Lewis Barnett, president of the Richmond Audubon Society.
He took me on a tour and you have to do a little work: Climb down a ladder and a short walk along the pipeline catwalk.
Then you are rewarded with a close-up look at a heron rookery. It's a funny word for a place where great blue herons gather to raise their young.
"They try to find a place to nest that has the trees, the fish, the water, in a protected area from predators," Barnett said.
It wasn't always this way. The water was too dirty, and there weren't enough fish. But that's all changed in the past few years.
"A tribute to some things that Richmond has done right, in terms of cleaning up the river... And preserving natural space along the river corridor," he said.
Forty pairs of herons built their nests out of sticks in February & laid eggs in March. They chose this island to keep those eggs safe.
"I don't know a way it could be better," Barnett said.
If you visit, you'll likely see what we saw: An expert hunter in action. Herons use their beaks to stab fish, then take a few seconds to maneuver the prey into their mouth -- all that work to feed their babies.
"It's kind of gross, they regurgitate food for their young," he said.
The young are almost ready to start flying. So you'll need to hurry down to catch the show. The herons will leave soon, spreading out across the state for the summer. But they'll likely be back here next year -- enjoying their prime downtown Richmond real estate.
Pipeline runs along the river at the Riverside on the James condominiums, is easy to access from the Canal Walk at South 12th and Byrd streets or from the east end of Brown's Island. There is a parking lot for about eight cars between the old Reynolds Building and the old Power Station building at Riverside on the James.

Interview and transcript by Matt Johnson
Questions by Matt Johnson and Matt Sparkman
Mike Bohn is in his sixth year as athletic
director at the University of Colorado. Bohn, a Colorado native, has also
worked for the athletic programs at San Diego State University, the University
of Idaho, the Air Force Academy and Colorado State University. Bohn helped
engineer CU's move from the Big 12 Conference to the Pac-10 Conference, which
will take place sometime in the next two years. We sat down with Bohn to
reflect on parts of his first five years working for CU.
Boulder Weekly: Why are you excited to
move to the Pac-10 Conference?
Mike Bohn: You have to remember the University of
Colorado's Western orientation. We're the number one institution in the nation
that's relying on out-of-state tuition revenue, so it's important for us to be
visible in the California area. That's where most of our students come from.
It's important to be visible in Arizona and Washington. Also, we have 50,000
more alumni in the Pac-10 footprint than we did in the Big 12, so that's
another opportunity to engage them. Academically we're a lot better fit for
those institutions. Ethically we're a lot better fit for those institutions.
It's just a lot better fit for our faculty who collaborate with institutions in
the Pac-10 already — numerous research institutions and issues that include
biotech, the environment, space, sustainability — all those things. All those
connectors really pull us west rather than into [the central region of]
BW: Do you think being in the Big 12 for so long
will give CU an advantage when moving to the Pac-10? Why or why not?
MB: No. They're both very competitive. The Pac-10
Conference has won more national championships as a conference than all the
other conferences in America put together, so it's going to be competitive in
the Pac-10, just like it is in the Big 12. The advantage we may have is that
we've learned some good things from 12 institutions in the Big 12, and now [the
question is] how we transform that knowledge and that expertise into the
BW: What sport or couple of sports do you think
are going to have a breakout season this year?
MB: I think football's going to be a lot better
than many, and men's basketball. I think our investment in men's basketball is
starting to pay off — we were 12-3 at home last year. We've invested in a new
floor, and we've invested in a new practice facility, new offices, new lights,
new baskets, new charter jet travel — all those things. I think men's
basketball is going to have a great year.
BW: How will the upgrades to the Coors Events
Center improve the overall fan experience?
MB: Fans are going to enjoy watching full-color
video replays, they're going to enjoy watching the … messaging [system], which
is designed to create excitement for them and to be able to follow the
statistics that are going on in the game. It's just going to be a lot more fun,
energetic, and a lot brighter, and I think that will be exciting for them. All
those things just create a sense of pride that I think has been missing in
BW: What does the investment in the basketball
practice facility say about the administration's commitment to basketball?
MB: No disrespect to any of my predecessors, but
we have never made a major commitment to basketball. To have our basketball
teams practicing at 8 in the morning because we don't have a facility to
practice [in], or practicing at local high schools, [does not provide] an
opportunity for them to be successful. Both men's and women's basketball and
volleyball will receive a huge shot in the arm, which will help them in
recruiting, and it will help them be more competitive. … There's no question
that that type of commitment is what I believe our fans have been looking for,
and what I believe recruits and coaches want to have in order to be successful.
BW: Why did you want this job when you were
applying for it?
MB: I think [it was] for a lot of reasons. You
have to remember that my previous experiences were all at institutions that
were not at the BCS level. Colorado is a BCS institution, and the Big 12
Conference is one of the most prestigious conferences in the country. To have
an opportunity to be a part of an athletic program at that level, but also to
be able to come home to a community where I grew up and to come back to a
stadium where I sold Cokes as a kid — to pull all that together was very
special. All those things, factored together, created an environment where I
felt … [I had] a great challenge, and it has been all that and more. I wanted
to be a part of that challenge, a part of the BCS level, and to be home.
BW: What are some positives and negatives about
being an athletic director that most people wouldn't know about?
MB: The negatives, obviously, are failures on the
scoreboard and also in the community. I think any time as a leader you're under
attack because somebody doesn't think you're doing something right. It can't
always be a lot of fun. I can't give you a formula for success, but I can give
you one for failure — that's trying to be everything to everyone. I just
doesn't work. The challenges are that sometimes you let people down or you
upset people. You don't want to do that intentionally, but, again, as a leader,
that's the result of decisions you make and things that you do. That can be
very challenging and troubling at times.
The best part is working with people, whether
it's any member of the constituent group we work with — alumni, band members,
cheerleaders, dance team, Spirit Squad, mascots, donors, community members …
The ability to make a difference in young people's lives, to be able to make
somebody happy, to create a sense of great community spirit, to do things like
creating the Stampede in downtown Boulder with the marching band, to be able to
make a difference, and to lead and create opportunities for special things to
happen is what makes it just awesome.
BW: How has working for so many other
universities' athletic programs helped you with what you're doing at CU?
MB: I believe all those institutions that I've
worked with and the people I've been on a team with, within those institutions,
have provided opportunities to see what works and also experience some
failures. It's just a fact of gaining experience. Any time you have the
opportunity to learn from others and watch what's happening and see what
they're doing — that's positive. You're inspired by being around great coaches
like Fisher DeBerry and Sonny Lubick. Having the opportunity to run [my] own
program at Idaho was special, and then at San Diego State. Now I'm very
fortunate to be at the University of Colorado.
BW: What to you appreciate about being an athletic
director, especially at CU?
MB: I appreciate being home. I love the mountains,
and I love Colorado. I appreciate the people that inspire me. I appreciate
people that come up and provide encouragement to me [and provide] a sense of
belief in our system and our principles that we put in place. People that
invest in our program based on that premise, people that write checks and
sponsors that help us. The partners, the teammates that make it go — that's
what I'm really appreciative of. It takes so many different people to make an
intercollegiate athletics program successful, so I'm so appreciative of those that
help me, and they help in so many ways. Like I said, donors, sponsors,
encouragement, moral support, intellectual support, financial support,
friendship — and watching a young student-athlete really emerge and grow as a
person is special — all those things I'm appreciative of.
BW: What are you most proud of in terms of the
athletic program at CU?
MB: I'm most proud of the fact that we run a good
shop. What I mean by that is we play by the rules, we work hard, and we take
great pride in doing what's right … [That means] when we're faced with a very
challenging situation, we represent the institution with pride and distinction
rather than taking shortcuts. I'm proud of that. That hasn't shown up on the
scoreboard yet for us, but that's what we're working on, and I'm proud of that.
I'm proud of the teamwork we've built, the partnership with the city, the
partnership with the faculty, the partnership with the legislature and the
partnership with so many other people that come together. I'm really proud of
the teamwork we've been able to create.
BW: What's something special that you've created
in the CU community since you took this job?
MB: I'm really proud of the Stampede, the Friday
night exercise with the marching band and the football team that marches up Pearl
Street, and having over 5,000 people down there eating in restaurants, being
excited about college football, uniting and being excited about the program.
We're very excited about the fact that we've averaged 50,000 fans for five
years in a row. That's really a great thing, and we've worked hard at that to
pull [it] together. I haven't seen too much more that I really [was] too
excited about, that I didn't already know. I was a little disappointed that we
didn't have a stronger fan base and a stronger passion collectively for
intercollegiate athletics, but we're working on building that.

A late night drive home from Quivira National Wildlife Refuge and a storm.
The world spun in much commotion Monday evening between 8 and 9 p.m. or so out on Stafford Road.
Bugs flew erratically, frogs hopped desperately across the road, and wind-whipped trees danced nervously in the wind. My small car and I were simply trying to make it home safely to Pratt after the Friends of Quivira board meeting at the refuge.
The rain and windstorm sometimes created sideways curtains in the darkness, briefly obscuring the road, which was fortunately illuminated by frequent flashes of lightning and my car's headlights.
It was not such lonely of a feeling out on this sometimes lonely road, though. I passed four or five vehicles between Stafford and K-61 and clumped together with another four vehicles, caught behind slow-moving farm machinery, toward the road's end.
All in all, it was not your typical trip from Stafford to Pratt. I was simply one more creature out on the road, heading for shelter.

From The Constitution, Atlanta, GA, Sunday, 23 April 1893:
Hon. James M. Dobbs, Something About the New Consul to Valparaiso, A Sailor Boy for Three Years His Wife, Mrs. Emma Hahr-Dobbs, Well Known as a Musician -
They Leave for Chile May 30th Valparaiso, Chile, S.A. is where James M. Dobbs, of Marietta, lately appointed consul to the city named, will soon address all his letters from.
Mr. Dobbs, accompanied by his wife, will leave for South America on the 30th of May, sailing from New York city. In less than three weeks Consul Dobbs and wife will go to Chicago, where the world's fair will be visited in time to leave for Valparaiso on the date set.
The new and democratic consul succeeds Mr. William McCreary, of Michigan. James M. Dobbs is a native Georgian, having been born in Marietta, where he now lives. His appointment to the head consulship of Chile was a good one in every respect. He is well acquainted with the ways and language of the South Americans and is well versed in the commerce of the country.
It was his thorough knowledge of the physical and geographical nature of Chile that induced the president to appoint Mr. Dobbs consul to Valparaiso. Mr. Dobbs did not go after the office with a bundle of recommendations and a wagon load of petitions. He was introduced to the president by the congressman from the seventh, Judge Maddox, and Mr. Dobbs himself did the rest. He impressed the Washington officials that he was thoroughly acquainted with the language and the disposition of the people with whom he would have to deal, and that was all that was necessary.
Valparaiso, where Consul Dobbs will make his headquarters, is the seaport of Chile and is some one hundred miles distant from Santiago, the capital of Chile. Valparaiso has something like two hundred and fifty thousand inhabitants, and is a hustling business-like city. It is the largest port in the South Pacific. The town is quite a pretty one, but is by no means as handsome a one as Santiago. The Chileans are the foremost nation of South America, and are very progressive. The principal industries of the country are stock raising and mining. Phosphates and copper about the largest mining products. Taken all in all, Valparaiso is a delightful place to spend four years or more and the stay is made none the less pleasant when a salary of $3,000 a year, besides the perquisites of the office, is involved.
James M. Dobbs was born in Marietta thirty-three years ago, and was a son of Mr. David Dobbs, who was a member of the first class to graduate from the State university. While he was quite a youngster the support of his mother devolved upon young James, and he decided that he would strike out, and, boy-like, thought that in a few years he would have a fortune to place at his mother's feet.
"Jim," as he was called at home and about the little village, was just sixteen years old when he was struck by the desire to emigrate. Jim's mother was favorably impressed with the idea, but between the mother and son there arose a difference of opinions, in which the mother was upheld by all the friends of the family, all failing to see the making for the future consul in Jim.
And Jim -- well, he wanted to go to sea, and unlike Caesar, he was not able to say anything except that he went to sea, and he saw.
Argument after argument was thrown at the stubborn-headed youth, but he refused to give up his cherished plan. He was told of the horrors of a storm at sea, the terrors of the shipwrecked mariner who gradually starved to death; the cruel cat o' nine tails, too, was brought forward, but all this did not deter Jim. He wanted to be a sailor boy, swear like a bo'sun, and hitch his trousers in a way not known to lubberly ways. These and many other sailor-like things was he ambitious of doing, until finally his mother unwillingly consented that he should go.
It was from New York, on board of a sailing vessel bound for South America, that Jim shipped. He went before the mast in regular novel form, and was the pet of a very tough crew. Gradually Jim became exceedingly weary of a sailor boy's life, and he waxed exceeding homesick, but he was full of sand and determined to stick it out.
For three years he played the role of sailor-lad, and finally gave it up to become a landsman. He dropped his sailor life in South America and went to work to get rich. He traveled through Brazil, the United States of Colombia and Chile, picking up the Spanish language until he could talk like a native, still not forgetting his mother tongue. For ten years Jim remained in South America, returning home as James M. Dobbs, Esq., and now he changes his title to Hon. J.M. Dobbs, consul to Valparaiso.
For some time he owned an interest in the Fulton Lumber Company, but he has now sold out.
Mrs. Emma Hahr-Dobbs, the Consul's Wife Mrs. Emma Hahr-Dobbs is possibly better known than her husband, having acquired before her marriage a national reputation as a musician of the highest repute. As Miss Hahr she was an Atlantian. She is a pupil of the famous Carl Klindworth and other such masters as Von Bulow and Lizst and was for several years in Germany.
Mrs. Hahr-Dobbs appears in Moulton's [sic; i.e. Willard, Frances]
"Women of the Century," which contains a thousand of the most prominent women of the times.
The latest work of Mrs. Hahr-Dobbs is a beautiful piece entitled
From the Atlanta Constitution, 30 January 1898, page 6:
Ex-Consul Dobbs at home again; He talks of the five years he has spent abroad; The Chilean people pictured; Trade and commerce of the sub-Andean republic; Most progressive in South America; The squeeze of the gold standard and its effect upon the people; A trip to the Hawaiian Islands; (Sketch of J.M. Dobbs included)
Marietta, Ga., January 29 (Special) -- One of the best posted men on all subjects and the most interesting to talk to in Georgia is Mr. J.M. Dobbs, ex-consul to Valparaiso. He is thoroughly conversant with the governments, people and their customs, the products of most every nation of any importance. He has traveled extensively and often in Europe and is familiar with almost the whole of the western hemi- sphere. He spoke the Spanish language fluently before he was sent to Valparaiso, five years since. Knowing their language as he did, he became thoroughly acquainted with the Chilean people and their country and trade. He perhaps knows their country better in every particular than any person who is not a native of that country.
Asked for his retention He was very vigorous in the prosecution of his duties as consul, an in looking out for every interest of our country. When Mr. McKinley was elected president and for political reasons it was expected that Mr. Dobbs's successor would immediately be named, the president of the National Association of Manu- facturers, together with committees from the Philadelphia commercial museums, without the knowledge of Mr. Dobbs, made a personal appeal to the president to continue him in office and gave as their reasons that he had so faithfully and ably represented our interests and had benefited the manufacturing interests of our country.
When asked for an interview for The Constitution on Chilean matters, Mr. Dobbs said, with pleasure:
"I think a great deal of that paper and shall be glad to give them any information I can.
"Chile is the most advanced of all South American republics and has had no war of consequence for 35 years, except the revolution of 1890. It is a strip of country about three thousand miles in length, running directly in northerly and southerly direction, and has all kinds of climates. It never rains in the north, but has a moderate rainfall in the central portion, and in the lumber and wood growing sections of the south they have ample rainfall. Valparaiso has a delightful climate, the thermometer ranging from 40 degrees in winter to never more than 90 degrees in summer, and is a charming city.
"The better classes of Chileans are highly educated and progressive and their statement are not excelled by those of any country. A more patriotic people are not to be found. They have great respect for the United States, and require only a little encouragement to be as friendly with us as either Peru or Brazil or Venezuela."
Change of monetary system
"Prior to 1895 the money of the country was paper, the peso, or dollar, having an original value of 38 pence, was fluctuating between 10 and 14 pence. In December 1895, the conversion law was passed, placing the country on a gold basis and making the value of the peso 13 pence. The effect of this law was to contract the currency, making money very scarce and interest high, the circulating medium having been cut from 92,000,000 to 50,000,000 pesos. For two years following the conversion act the country suffered a great deal, which, of course, was to be expected until a general liquidation throughout the country had been made. It was a new and interesting experience to me, as I had never before had an opportunity of studying the financial conditions of a country while undergoing a change in its money.
"Chile is a good wheat growing country and has from thirty to forty cargoes a year to dispose of. It is their principal article of agriculture, and brought a good price in 1897, which caused the situation to improve very much there just as it has in the west.
Nitrate industry
"The great industry and real life of northern Chile, the desert of Atacama, is nitrate of soda (saltpeter). The over production of this article and its competitor, sulphate of ammonia, which is being manufactured both in the US and Germany, has caused depression in the business of the country. There is, however, a brighter outlook at present for that industry, owing to recent opening of new markets in Hawaii and Japan, which countries are expected in the near future to become large purchasers of these articles. They also hope to have a greater demand from California and the west coast, owing to the increased culture of beer root.
"There has been a steady growth in commerce between Chile and the US for the past five years and an increasing demand for American manufactured articles up to the passage of the Dingley bill, which made it impossible for Chileans to send wool or hides to the US.
"They grow a class of wool different from any raised in this country, and while it was admitted free of duty, two-thirds of their entire production came to this country, in exchange for woodware, hardware, machinery, etc. Since the passage of this act they send their wool to England, and the effect of this duty will only cause an increased trade with Great Britain and decrease it with the US."
On Mr. Dobbs's return home he spent a month in Hawaii, studying the conditions there, and is heartily in favor of this country annexing the islands.

Posted: Oct 21, 2011
G.I. Jobs, the premier magazine for military personnel transitioning into civilian life, awarded Honolulu Community College the designation of Military Friendly School. The 2012 Military Friendly Schools list honors the top 20 percent of colleges, universities and trade schools that are doing the most to embrace America's military service members and veterans as students.
"It is a great honor to be recognized as a Military Friendly School. Honolulu Community College has a long history of supporting our military service men and women. We offer courses at Hickam Air Force Base and Pearl Harbor Naval Station through our off-campus program with the hopes of helping military personnel and their spouses achieve their educational aspirations," said Honolulu CC Chancellor Michael T.

In its effort to help student veterans find the right school, G.I. Jobs incorporated a survey of student veterans for the first time. This feedback provides prospective military students with insight into the student veteran experience at a particular institution based on peer reviews from current students. Student veteran survey feedback can be viewed at www.militaryfriendlyschools.com/2012 list.
The 1,518 colleges, universities and trade schools on this year's list prioritize the recruitment of students with military experience. These schools are making the grade by offering scholarships and discounts, veterans' clubs, full-time staff, military credit and other services to those who served. The 2012 list of Military Friendly Schools ® was compiled through extensive research and a data driven survey of more than 8,000 schools nationwide. Methodology, criteria and weighting for the list were developed with the assistance of an Academic Advisory Board (AAB) consisting of educators from schools across the country. A full list of board members can be found at http://militaryfriendlyschools.com/Article/advisory-board/.

Navasota resident Joe Wilkins is a retired chemist but as a full time car enthusiast he gets a lot of looks in his 39 Ford.
"I love to tinker and I love cars," said Wilkins.
Joe brought the Ford to Doug Leopold with Classic Collision and Restoration in Bryan to rebuild the classic car from the ground up.
"Big project, no big deal but this was a little bit of a bigger project," said Leopold.
Bigger and better. You see there's something very special about this classic roadster.
"Everything is a little extra done," joked Leopold.
The 39 Ford is already a cool car. You throw in a Hemi engine and you're really cooking. But Joe did something extra, he added a jet engine. Well, you know how high gas prices are these days.
"Nobody has come to me and asked to put a jet engine in a car," said Leopold.
"Building this kept me young and it was a real break from reality in the laboratory," said Wilkins.
That's right, with a Hemi engine under the hood and a jet engine pushing the rest, this car is an incredibly hot, hot rod.
"The tailpipe we've got on there has an afterburner and that develops a thrust that adds to what the car can produce through the wheels." said John Rankin.
Rankin works on jet engines and we asked the man that works with the really big engine how fast the Hemi Jet can go.
"That might be confidential information at this point. That's a fancy way of saying we're not sure," said Rankin.
Well what about the cost?
"It was in the six figures, we'll just leave it at that. I'm afraid my wife might see this," joked Wilkins.
Simply put, it's cool, it's loud, and yes, it's even a daily driver.
"I've even got air conditioning in it, a stereo, I've taken it to the store to get milk and bread," said Wilkins.
Now that's what I call a fast trip to the store.
Joe plans on taking the Hemi Jet 39 Ford to Utah next year to see if it can be first street legal car to hit 300 mph.
He's also using the jet engine to test a cowl that helps with noise reduction and temperature reduction of the engine's heat signature for the defense department.

This is a re-post from the official blog of the Utah State Board of Education and the Utah State Office of Education.
(Salt Lake City, UT) Shmoop, a digital curriculum and test prep company, is partnering with Utah to provide the state's 11th graders with test prep help to successfully prepare for the ACT exam in March.
Utah, already known as reporting one of the highest statewide ACT scores in the country last year, says it was natural to select Shmoop.
"Although we've been providing free ACT exams for Utah students for the last two years, we're proud to say that this is the first time we're providing an all-inclusive test prep resource for them to build on their strengths," says State Superintendent of Public Instruction Martell Menlove.
In addition to diagnostic exams, an infinite number of Math Shack drills, and full-length practice exams, Utah schools will also have access to Shmoop's premium analytics product. Teachers, principals, and district administrators can understand what's happening at the individual or school-wide level at a glance, and assign extra drills or review sessions based on a student's strengths or weaknesses.
"We're thrilled to give all 125 of Utah's Local Education Agencies (LEA) a chance to continue their momentum as one of the top test scoring regions in the country," says Ellen Siminoff, CEO and President of Shmoop. "We hope Shmoop can be a tool that students use to become the best that they can possibly be."
All Utah schools can sign up for Shmoop's premium ACT and PLAN test prep guides by visiting this link, free of charge. Utah schools can get their unique account registration information by contacting Shmoop representative Allison Arunski at email@example.com.

According to information from Orange Police Capt. Cliff Hargrave, on Friday, April 8, the suspect in the attempted murder of an Orange woman, Horace Dempsey, was arrested in Miami, Fl.
While we harbor no disrespect for the Wall Street Journal who called us "that scrappy little paper from Southeast Texas," we prefer to think of ourselves as simple seekers of the truth.

Today's Meditation
To Find The Sunshine
Read Numbers 11:1-6
The Israelites murmured, "We remember the fish we used to eat in Egypt for nothing . . . but now our strength is dried up, and there is nothing at all but this manna to look at."
— Numbers 11:5-6 (NRSV)
"Oh no," I thought, "I'm down with this illness, with many days to spend at home. I won't be able to work or to meet with my friends or family." As this thought struck me, a wave of discontent seized me; I lay on my bed and murmured. Then, little by little, I found the positives in my situation. I was not in unbearable pain. My illness was not a permanent or terminal sickness. I could read all the books I wanted to read. I had a comfortable home with a roof over my head and good food on my table. My friends and relatives continued to call regularly to check on me. My pastor promised to pray for me.
"Give thanks in all circumstances," Paul tells us (1 Thess. 5:18). As I learned to follow this admonition, I discovered that even when ill I could use my time to pray, to reflect, and to grow closer to God.
Anitha R.
(Tamil Nadu, India)
Thought for the Day: Faith in God can turn a curse into a blessing. (See Neh. 13:2.)
Prayer: Dear Father, thank you for enabling us to see the positive in all our circumstances. We know that you can use even the unpleasant events in our lives for our good if we are open to the Holy Spirit's voice. We are grateful to you for your eternal love. Amen.

I have a beautiful 14 month old, she's never been a good sleeper, I think the most sleep I've ever gotten in one sleep pattern was 4 hours.
Lately I've been getting only 2 if I'm lucky.
She wakes up and sits up straight away and then cries and cries until I give her boob, sometimes she'll go straight back down, others she'll move around for about 30 minutes and then sit up crying again until she gets boob.
I feed her once during the day - nap time at 1.30.
I co-sleep with her, also I'm a solo Mum as of 4 weeks ago so I can't get anyone else to help me.
How can I wean my little bean - I know that her molars are coming through - but this has been happening for about 2 months now and I'm beyond exhausted, I"m also staying with my Mum ( she wont help) and she just complains to me in the morning about the noise and that I'm not doing something right.
I'm forgetting things, really impatient but pretty impressed with myself at how calm I am with her waking up 8 -12 hours a night.
Any thoughts?
I've given her : A bottle before bed - whole milk 60z.
Baby Advil an hour before bed.
I took her to the Dr to rule out illness (she did just have a terrible cold, but that's gone and nothing has changed)
If I put her in her crib she screams blue murder!
I've tried letting her cry it out but she cried it out from 12 - 5 .. seriously, she didn't give it up - I didn't give in though as I was so tired - but never again.

Police: Teen In Asiana Crash Hit By Fire Truck
SAN FRANCISCO (AP) — San Francisco police say one of the Chinese teenagers killed in the Asiana Airlines crash was struck by a fire truck, although it's not clear whether that killed her.
Coroner's officials are still trying to determine the girl's cause of death. But police spokesman Officer Gordon Shyy confirmed Friday that she was hit by the truck.
He says the girl was on the ground and covered in foam that had been sprayed by fire crews.
Asiana Flight 214 collided with a rocky seawall just short of its intended airport runway on Saturday. Two people were killed and dozens of others injured although most suffered minor injuries.
Investigators have said the plane came in too low and slow.

Land Transport
There is no shortage of material on this topic, and WFSA has persuaded some railway enthusiasts to allow their films to be copied. Notable examples include Mr E Griffith, who filmed Southern Region steam trains in the 1960s, and Les White from Eastleigh. Other enthusiasts have deposited their railway films, notably Mr T Ferrers-Walker, active in the Basingstoke area during the 1960s.
An interesting film of a model railway in the 1930s is worthy of note: the Keeping Railway near Beaulieu, which was quite extensive, and large enough to ride on.
Professional films of railways have also been received, including copies of Southern Railway Film Unit items and British Transport Films. The latter collection includes a classic 1937 documentary The Way to the Sea about the electrification of the line from London to Portsmouth, with music by Benjamin Britten and script by W H Auden (the Night Mail team). Film documentaries concerning the Mid-Hants Railway (also known as 'the Watercress Line'), during and after its restoration, have also been deposited.
Buses, trucks and trams are also represented, with notable collections from the Aldershot & District Bus Interest Group and the Thornycroft Society.
On Line Video has deposited video copies of amateur films showing trams and buses in Southampton and Winchester, and there are numerous other examples of this kind of material amongst other collections.

I was reading a magazine the other day and I found and article in it that I found quite remarkable. So this is the scenario when Virgin MegaStore became Zavvi in the UK, they opened a website as can be expected under their brand name zavvi.co.uk and it was business as usual. But it was not, because around the same time a UK based company opened another website called zavvidirect.co.uk looking strikingly similar to the original site, this did then easily fool unsuspected online shoppers and when they advertised a limited special offer on a gaming computer people when out and ordered, filled in their credit card information, clicked on enter and waited excited for the delivery that never arrived. Just to cut a longer story short, this was corrected and Zavvi has now, through copyright laws, closed this site.
For more information on the WebUser article buy issue 192, 2008 and you should find it there on page eleven to the right above the "Gordon Ramsay Cooks up Game" article and beside the "Internet cafes under attack".
So how can you try to prevent this?
1. Don't shop online, just kidding… I have shopped online for over 10 years and never had problems
2. Shop with established online shops such as Amazon
3. If you don't want to do that, Google the name of the shop you want to buy through
a. If there only or mostly negative activity, don't shop
b. If there no activity, then that should also ring bells, I would then wait a little to see how things evolve
4. When looking at the forums or blogs and you see one or two negative posts and you really want to shop with them, send the company an email and ask them to explain why these customers are negative
5. Only shop with companies that use PayPal or other recognized payment systems
6. Don't use debit cards use Credit Cards, they work in a different way and are to my knowledge more secure
Good luck shopping!

Aziz Ansari Imagines His Character on Girls
And other random Aziz stories.
Now that Donald Glover has appeared on Girls, helping Lena Dunham answer criticism about the lack of people of color on the show, surely that opens the door for Glover's NBC colleagues of color to get in on the action, too, right? At least that's what went through my mind when I accosted Parks and Recreation's Aziz Ansari early Saturday morning at a very fun mid-blizzard Fashion Week party at the Jane Hotel for Suno and Refinery29. Little did I know I'd find out that Ansari is even more qualified to be on Girls than initially anticipated.
He already has an idea for his character on the show.
Back in his twenties, Ansari thought he might become an entrepreneur and went to NYU's Stern School of Business, which he admits "makes no sense. I didn't know what I wanted to do, and I had an uncle who started his own business and I was like, 'Oh, that's kind of cool. There's a lot of freedom there.' I had no clue about the whole finance culture at NYU, but there was one guy, he was an Indian guy at Stern, and he was like, 'I'm the best-looking Indian guy at NYU.' And he really put that out there, that he thought he was the best-looking Indian guy. I just thought that was so funny. What a weird thing to try to really put out there. So maybe my Girls character would be this douche bag who thought he was, like, the best-looking Indian guy in New York."
He's Jessa-like in that he found a way to get models at Fashion Week to feed him.
While most Fashion Week attendees are too stressed out to eat, or frankly don't see it as a necessary function of sustaining life, Ansari managed to figure out not just a way to eat, but a way to get male models to bring him the food. His friends at the fashion label Band of Outsiders asked him if he'd participate in the scavenger hunt they did in place of a typical men's show (the models were wearing the clothes as they ran around the city Instagramming their adventures). Ansari had just flown into L.A., so he said he'd be a clue, "'If the clue ends with me getting a sandwich from Parm or a cheeseburger from Shake Shack.' It was not a bad deal. They brought me a Shake Shack burger and a chicken parm. Pretty good way to arrive in New York."
Like Hannah, he makes jokes people sometimes don't get and then has to run around doing damage control.
"I gotta clear something up," he said. "I went to the Golden Globes and I was wearing a tuxedo graciously provided by the people at Christian Dior. You know, you do all these boring red-carpet interviews about what are you wearing, what are you doing, so I always say some nonsense, like, 'Oh, I'm wearing Oshkosh B'gosh or Baby Gap' or whatever. So this one thing, I said I was wearing Dior, and then I was like, 'Kevin Dior.' As a joke! And most people, 90 percent of people, thought it was a joke and knew it was a joke, but somebody said something that they thought I didn't know it was Christian Dior. It's like, I played Tom Haverford for years! I told them how I wanted the suit tailored! Obviously I fucking know it's Christian Dior! I want to set the record straight on the Kevin Dior controversy."
Just as Elijah left Hannah's apartment with nothing, so, too, will Ansari walk away from the Parks and Recreation set empty-handed (whenever NBC inevitably cancels it, because they don't know what they're doing).
He never takes home articles from Tom Haverford's extensive Rent-a-Swag collection, he said, because "I make a deliberate effort to make sure Tom's clothes are different from Aziz's clothes. So there are certain colors that I try to tell the wardrobe people to throw in to make it be more Tom-ish, like Tom's more into purple than I am. I don't like purple stuff, but I try to make Tom wear a lot of purple ties and stuff. And I also deliberately make Tom's clothes not fit as well as mine. Like, when I get my suits and stuff, I tailor them to fit me really well, but when I get Tom's, I make them do it a little bit off because I don't want to be like, 'Oh, you look just like Tom.'"
Also, like Ray, he's homeless.
The reason he says he won't take home any Parks and Rec props is because, he said, "I've been trying to be a minimalist. I tend to hoard a lot of crap and not do anything with it. I don't even have an apartment right now. I just sublet places in New York and L.A., and I have a few things in storage. I'm homeless, so I try not to grab stuff or it ends up staying in a corner somewhere and I have to look at it."
