The powerful storm system stretched from the US Gulf Coast to the Great Lakes in the north, in the second deadly tornado outbreak in a week.
The twisters splintered homes, damaged a prison and tossed around vehicles across the region, leaving at least 14 people dead in southern Indiana, another 17 in neighboring Kentucky, three more in Ohio, and one in Alabama, officials said. In all, the latest line of storms battered a band of states from Ohio and Indiana on southward to Alabama and Georgia.
"We are no match for Mother Nature at her worst," Indiana Governor Mitch Daniels said in a statement, adding that he would visit the stricken southeast corner of the state on Saturday.
Aerial footage from a TV news helicopter flying over Henryville showed wrecked houses and a mangled school bus protruding from the side of a one-story building overturned trailers.
In the birthplace of Kentucky Fried Chicken founder Col Harland Sanders the high school was destroyed and the second floor had been ripped off the middle school next door.
The outbreak comes two days after an earlier round of storms killed 13 people in the Midwest and South.
"It just hit all at once," said Blaine Lawson, 76, in Cleveland, Tennessee. "Didn't have no warning really. The roof, insulation and everything started coming down on us. It just happened so fast that I didn't know what to do. I was going to head to the closet but there was just no way. It just got us."
The storm system was so wide that an estimated 34 million people were at risk of severe weather, according to the National Weather Service regional office.
"Then the gates of hell opened up," an emergency services call dispatcher told The New York Times.
In Indiana, Gov Daniels said that workers were desperately searching through rubble in search of anyone trapped, adding, "our people are racing the nightfall".
The town of Marysville, home to 2,000 people, was reported to be nearly flattened.
"We've had a few tornadoes come through the area, but this is the worst one we've seen," said Maj Adams, who has lived in the area for 30 years.
Harold Brooks, a research meteorologist at the National Severe Storms Laboratory, said that the tornado storm was caused by a warm, moist and unseasonable air mass that was mixed with colder air far to the north.

Calvisius can offer unbeatable quality and prices for caviar because it operates the largest caviar farm in the world. At their state-of-the-art facility located in Italy, they manage a natural soil drainage system, which allows for purity in their caviar's flavor. They also microchip, track, and nurture each sturgeon, which they begin harvesting at 12 years of age. With a longer annual harvest season and a safe and sterile harvesting environment, Calvisius's roe is a preferred choice for world-class chefs and caviar connoisseurs.
Calvisius's use of highly advanced aquaculture technology on its caviar farm in Calvisano, Italy, allows you to carelessly savor superior roe without the guilt of contributing to overfishing. More important, Calvisius roe is far more pure in flavor. Since it's not subjected to the heavy salting that even Russia's best wild varieties undergo, it tastes noticeably better, making it the preferred choice for chefs and caviar connoisseurs around the world.
In the 1970s the partners of a steelworks in Calvisano, Italy, realized they could use the waters that cooled their steel in an ecological way to create an avant-garde fish farm. Their innovation led to the creation of a 136-acre system of modern aquaculture, which achieved worldwide recognition, including a "Friend of the Sea" certificate for sustainable aquaculture. Today Calvisius relies on advanced technology, a hands-on staff, and careful production control to maintain their status as the world's best source for fresh, delectable, and responsibly harvested caviar.
Saveur Magazine
"Calvisius proves that Italy's sustainably farmed caviar is, more than ever, a true royal experience."
The Walman Report
"Purity and delicacy associated with only the best"
"A sustainable spin on all things eggs-cellent."
Zagat, Food-29
In a side-by-side comparison with wild caviar, there's no doubt that the pristine waters and feed of the farmed variety make it the cleaner tasting, more esteemed choice across tha board.

I have a niece that is selling this stuff, (which I believe is another one of those pyramid schemes), I was just wondering if any of you diabetics have used this to control your sugar, since this is what she keeps telling me. And yes I am a doubting Thomas. I need to find people who are not selling it, that has tried it, and it is working. by the way I'm a truck driver and I trying to keep my sugar under control with oral meds, since the trucking industry will not allow me to drive a truck if I go on insulin injections. Any information on this would help me tremendously.
5 replies
I have a website that I like that is free and low carb; http://stellastyle.com/ I have been a fan of this site for years and it has been very beneficial in both weight control and my BS levels.
I have no direct experience with these people, in fact I hadn't heard of this before. But what i did was google "body by Vi reviews" and selected this review website to read: http://bodybyviprogram.com/bodybyvi-reviews.
From what I've read this review seems to be rather neutral in its approach.
If you want to lose weight, however, I feel that the best way to do that is to follow a low-carb eating plan. I have lost about 35 lbs in 4 mos by simply following a low carb lifestyle. I stopped using any medication to control my Blood Glucose levels. Fortunately for me my pancreas seems to be putting out enough insulin to control my BG levels IF I don't eat a lot of carbs. Don't try it without meds. without discussing it with you Dr first.
I pray you will do well.
thanks James for your reply, and I was just looking at this, and I belive you are correct about trying the low carb lifstyle, I've done that before and lost about 40 pounds, but it never changed by BG levels, so my doctor wouldn't let me get off the meds. so unfortunatley I quit, but now they are higher than ever and more meds so I have to do something. my niece did tell me, that her uncle on her mothers side is diabetic, and his numbers were running in the 400 range, and now he has it down to th 130-150 range, that is why I was thinking about doing this. I'm a truck driver and it really is hard not to eat all the junc. I've been eating lots of raw veggies, and I drink un sweet tea when I can find it. or water. every now and again a soda. not too often I'm not a fan of them, never have been really. glad you have been able to get off your meds. keep up the good work. :-)

There's still a lot of ground to cover when it comes to archaeology in Kentucky. Kentucky Heritage Council Archaeologist Nick Laracuente says Kentucky excavations have been going on since the 1930's. But, he says only five to ten percent of Kentucky has undergone archaeological study. Laracuente cites the distillery business as just one example. "There were thousands across Kentucky and we have, what, 30 operating today, but remains of many, many more that could tells us a lot about what's going on in that industry in the past.
That's just an example, if you can imagine it, if it's in a history book there's probably some material remains left of it that archaeologists can look at," said Laracuente. Certain tools are always going to come in handy when digging for artifacts. But, knowing where to dig in the future may rely more and more on technology. Laracuente says scouring the landscape takes on a whole new meaning today. "Things like laser mapping have become big lately where you can fly a plane or something over a field map down to a quarter of an inch the surface of the land. You can see things like earthworks and what not," added Laracuente. Archaeologists from across Kentucky gathered in Lexington over the weekend for the Kentucky Heritage Council's 30th annual conference. Laracuente says his profession is interested in getting more involved in social media and helping to facilitate voluntary digs across the state.

"I make dances and that is the world in which I work. I identify as someone who makes dance but I also don't feel that dance has to do everything for me, and also I haven't often thought of myself as, necessarily, good at dance... Often when I am making a dance I do other things as an escape from the dance. Sometimes it's because I want to do something else, like downtime things, or I want to do something that is more tactile and more actualized than dance because dance is so abstract. I mean it's abstract in that it only exists when you are doing it. You have to have people, if it's a solo, you have to have yourself, and be capable, and able, and physical up to par to rehearse, Then everybody has to to show up, on time, and you have to have a plan. I love all of that about dance, how hard it is to manifest, and how inexact it can be. Like, you are aiming for one thing and then something else happens, and that is really incredible. But, I think sometimes I crave, more static, tactile processes. So, often I am doing other things for that reason, like building stuff or making music, because it is more fun. Actually making dances, a lot of the time, isn't very fun for me, making dance material. So I do these other things because they give me more pleasure and because I am less invested in them."
-Choreographer Karen Sherman in a great interview with Anna Marie Shogren (read it here)
I have been doing a lot of tactile things, many organized activities, and lots of practical, linear jobs. It makes me so glad that something as mysterious as the process of making a dance exists. I've been thinking a lot about how easy it is for days and days to pass without being aware of your body beyond knowing that it needs food and rest. Not at all in dance-- your body's intuition and capacity for holding experience is everything.

About Us
The Choices Programme is a unique multi-stakeholder initiative designed to help consumers to easily select healthy food options and to help industry to improve their products. It was introduced in The Netherlands in 2006 as a response to the World Health Organization's call for food industry to take an active role in helping to tackle the growing problem of obesity and diet-related diseases around the world.
To identify the healthiest option in each food category, the programme consists of a nutrient profile model with product group-specific criteria. These criteria - based on international dietary guidelines - are established and periodically reviewed by an independent International Scientific Committee. They take into account a product's level of saturated and trans fatty acids, added sugar, salt and dietary fibre.
Find the actions and activities of the Choices International Foundation in the yearly updated action overview (PDF).
The Choices Programme
The Choices Programme focuses on three points of action to promote healthy choices:
1. Implement front-of-pack labelling: facilitate use of the Choices logo or comparable positive front-of-pack labels to help consumers identify the healthy choice at a glance.
2. Stimulate (re)formulation of products and portfolios: improvements by individual companies with or without logo use.
3. Encourage healthy product promotion: use of the criteria to shape product offerings and communicate on healthy choices towards consumers.

Google Sheep View Is Just What It Sounds Like. You're Welcome.
There have been a lot of pranks and disappointing mistakes on Google Maps lately. There were some gems in the past, like Pac-Man and Google Maps Westeros, but sometimes it's hard to remember the good times. Luckily, sheep exist.
Google Sheep View is a collection of screenshots from Google Street View footage taken around the world. Sheep grazing in the Netherlands, sheep grazing in England, sheep grazing in Bulgaria. You get the idea.
BUT YOU DON'T REALLY until you go on the site and scroll through photo after photo of serene, sometimes hilarious sheep. There's even an outtakes section, which is just a delight.
Photographers Ding Ren and Mike Karabinos write that they started the site this year "because we enjoy the 'sheep view' when riding trains in the Netherlands." They even dedicated the project to their favorite sheep breed, zwart bles.
This is the part where I make a "black sheep of the family" joke, but we'll just skip that so you get to the Sheep View link sooner.
Future Tense is a partnership of Slate, New America, and Arizona State University.

Sprint Gives Itself The Runaround
Reader Rob tells us that the CSRs manning the Sprint Consumerist Hotline get the same runaround you do when they try to talk to other departments of their own company.
We're not sure if this is distressing, or oddly comforting.
Rob writes (emphasis ours):
I wanted to write in to tell of a positive experience I had using the Sprint Consumerist Hotline. I spoke with a very knowledgeable associate named Shondra [redacted]. She listened to my issue, and then immediately started working through all of the red tape to get it resolved. The whole process took nearly 2 weeks, but she kept me throughly informed of the status of my case and in the end, was able to resolve the issue to my satisfaction. Before resorting to calling this support line, I had called the regular support line, and was passed around to several departments, and several hangups. Shondra was always patient with me, and only became impatient when talking to other departments within Sprint that wanted to argue about insignificant details rather than focus on the issue at hand. I was able to listen in a couple of times as she spoke with the porting department, and was amazed at the amount of run-around she was given by people in her own company. Thanks Consumerist, and thank you Shondra!
Rob S
Readers far and wide can skip the normal CSRs and go straight to the executive customer service team at Sprint by calling the hotline at (703-433-4401). Tell 'em the Consumerist says "Hi!"

Randy Ambrosie, president of AGF Management Ltd.'s AGF.B-T mutual fund arm, left the company yesterday as part of a management shakeup.
The departure of Mr. Ambrosie comes amid speculation that AGF, which has been suffering from net redemptions, might be put on the auction block following the recent death of Warren Goldring, co-founder of the firm and father of AGF chief executive officer Blake Goldring.
There had also been speculation that AGF's trust unit might be sold, given that it made a lot of investment loans that could go sour following the recent stock market collapse and economic downturn.
Mr. Ambrosie, a veteran brokerage executive as head of sales at HSBC Securities and a former Canadian Football League star, was first hired in 2004 as head of sales and marketing at AGF before being promoted later to the post as president of AGF Funds Inc.
He was hired to find ways to stem net redemptions that plagued the firm after San Franciso-based Brandes Investment Partners, which ran one-third of AGF's assets, left to set up its own Canadian company in 2002. The four-year sales slump ended in the summer of 2006, and resumed more than a year ago.
Mr. Ambrosie was behind new products such as Elements, a fund portfolio that pays rebates to investors if returns fall short of performance benchmarks and pays higher trailer fees to advisers for selling them than competitors.
"Though rumours of a sale will continue to float around, we remind investors that the Goldring family remains heavily invested in the company and that Blake Goldring continues to deny the possibility of an impending sale," said GMP Securities analyst Stephen Boland.
The analyst said in a note to clients that he is "not overly surprised by the resignation of Mr. Ambrosie who has been president for three years."
"AGF Trust has garnered considerable amount of attention in the past year, but the fund group has suffered declining gross sales during this period," said Mr. Boland, who has a "buy" on AGF with a target of $13.50. "Both the product lineup and the wholesaling group were under Mr. Ambrosie's responsibility."
Investment bankers and sources close to AFG say the Goldring family has no intention of selling the company. The stock slipped 20 cents yesterday to $10.85.
The company also announced that it is realigning its corporate structure to integrate AGF Funds, its retail arm, and AGF Asset Management Group, which deals with its institutional and private client business, under one banner called AGF Investments. The combined group will now be led by Mr. Goldring, who will be joined by Rose Cammareri, head of national adviser sales who was promoted to executive vice-president.
The promotion of Ms. Cammareri to this new job instead of president "implies that AGF may be moving to a more streamlined structure at this time," Mr. Boland wrote. "It may not have been a role Mr. Ambrosie coveted."
Other members of the executive include executive vice-president Rob Badun, chief investment officer Martin Hubbes and chief financial officer Greg Henderson. Mr. Goldring's sister, Judy, was also promoted to executive vice-president and assumes the role of chief operating officer. AGF Trust continues to be run by Mario Causarano.
AGF had flagged that some changes were coming after cancelling its previously scheduled analyst and investor day last month "pending organization changes." The event has now been scheduled for May 14.
"The market was hoping that the organizational changes would involve a sale of the trust," said Blackmont analyst Richard McCormick. "Many investors continue to be very worried about the sharp credit deterioration seen at the trust."
BMO Nesbitt Burns Inc. analyst John Reucassel was also not surprised by the management changes. He expects some changes in the fund lineup and perhaps in the Elements program. "Elements has been successful in terms of sales, but generates suboptimal levels of profitability," Mr. Reucassel wrote in a note to clients.
"The appointment of Judy Goldring should douse the flames of speculation that AGF may be put up for sale," added Mr. Reucassel, who has a "market perform" rating on its stock with a target of $11.05.

In politics, front-running candidates are an unusually risk-averse breed. And sometimes, that means turning down a chance to appear on television - even if it's free.
That's what the Alliance for Better Campaigns, a Washington group trying to improve the tenor of political races, found in the recent elections.
First, the group and its affiliates got more than 100 TV stations around the country to offer free air time to candidates, either in the form of mini-debates or taped responses to questions. The idea was to provide voters with information that's a little more edifying than attack ads and 30-second sound bites.
"The public has been trying to tell the political culture for decades now, give us something better than the junk food of just ads, ads, ads, and no coverage," says Paul Taylor, the alliance's executive director. "The public just drifts away," he adds.
But of the 103 stations that offered free air time, about a fifth of them never aired any segments, and others aired fewer segments than they offered. In most cases, it was the front-runner who played hard to get.
In Illinois, Sen.-elect Peter Fitzgerald (R), who beat the Democratic incumbent, Sen. Carol Moseley-Braun, turned down repeated offers to tape one-minute responses to questions on issues.
In Florida, Gov.-elect Jeb Bush (R) also never took up offers to tape responses to questions that would have aired on 11 Florida stations.
In California, Gov.-elect Gray Davis (D) declined an offer to take part in eight mini-debates that would have run during the evening news. Mr. Davis did other debates, but they weren't televised during prime-news viewing time. Spokesmen for these candidates argue their campaigns received so many offers for debates and other media appearances that they couldn't possibly accept all of them. But if the idea was to avoid too many risky, unscripted television appearances, the strategy worked. All three front-runners won.
Still, no one disputes the idea that campaigns have become increasingly driven by the paid media, and that both candidates and TV stations have entered a cozy symbiosis: The candidates get to control their messages by paying for ads, and the stations make big money. In addition, some stations have cut back on campaign coverage, forcing candidates to buy ads in order to communicate with the public.
The challenge for campaign-reform advocates is both to persuade more TV stations to offer candidates time, and to get more candidates to accept it. Like the televised debates that are now a staple of every presidential campaign, "we need to find a way to institutionalize that set of expectations [that candidates will use free air time to debate policies] at the state level," says Kathleen Hall Jamieson, a communications expert at the University of Pennsylvania.
A little nudge from Washington may be on the way. Later this month, a presidential advisory commission on digital TV and the public interest will issue its report. The commission is expected to recommend that broadcasters provide five minutes a night of candidate-centered discourse for the 30 nights before an election.

I first met Twitter in February 2009. A local PR Rockstar set us up and convinced me to give it a try. My argument was that I didn't know what to post. She advised me to follow some people who I thought were interesting and just read for a couple of weeks.
I took her advise and just read. I slowly started to post by retweeting the interesting things I was reading and occasionally posting my own information. I wouldn't have called myself a Twitter-lover at that point, we were just casually dating.
Fast-forward to February 2010. I attend a Social Media panel at KC/IABC's conference, Business Communicators Summit. I found out that Kris Ketz, of KMBC tweets and he explained how he, as a news reporter, used Twitter. I started following Mr. Ketz and discovered new uses for this social media outlet, other than work. We started getting serious.
Now, I always wanted to be that person who wakes up in the morning, reads the paper while drinking a nice cup of coffee. But I honestly have never been a newspaper-reader. Rustling with the large sheets of paper and skimming through all the articles that I was supposed to be interested in just wasn't for me.
One day, my husband and I went to iHop for breakfast. As we waited for our order we both started reading Twitter. I looked up and saw older generations reading their newspaper and we were reading our phones. That's when I realized that Twitter had become my newspaper.
How did Twitter get me to read the news on a daily basis while a traditional newspaper could not? Because Twitter is my own personal newspaper. I told Twitter what my interests were by following the people/business I was interested in. Every day I read my news, my sports teams, my weather, my celebrity gossip and my industry news. I control exactly what information I want fed to me, it is delivered to my electronic devise and I can read it at any time that is convenient for me. I fell in love.
Twitter and I have now been serious for the last year. I can't imagine my life without it. Information at my beck and call still gives me butterflies. I don't know what the future holds for me and Twitter, I may fall victim to the 7-year-itch or this very well, could be the real thing.

Dear Mother,
J'Zhirr reaches the broodlair. He sees Gunmar on his knees and being attacked by the bear that he is hunting. A giant frostbite spider joins in the fight. It ignores the bear and focuses on Gunmar, almost as if it is giving the bear a helping hand. Are the bear and the spider buddies?
Gunmar is weakened by the dual attackers so it looks like J'Zhirr will have to step in.

OCEAN RIDGE — It`s been no picnic these past few weeks, but county and town officials have ironed out their differences over development of the county`s proposed 8.5- acre oceanfront park in the town.
Town commissioners and county staff members reached an agreement at a Thursday morning meeting here, forestalling county commissioners` plans to ask the county`s legislative delegation Thursday night to have the park removed from the town`s jurisdiction.
``We`re real pleased with the compromise and look forward to the development of the park,`` said Lester Baird, Ocean Ridge town manager. ``We hope this will forge a better spirit of cooperation between the two jurisdictions.``
``We`re both (parties) pretty happy,`` said Bill Wilsher, county supervisor of park planning and design. ``It will be left in the town`s law-enforcement and land-use jurisdictions. We`ve reached a compromise on what will be in the park and the operating procedures.``
The county still will have to obtain necessary town permits to develop the site, which is located at the Boynton Inlet, at the north part of town.
``The guts of the thing is what was settled today. We still have some loose ends to tie up,`` Wilsher said.
County commissioners had voted earlier this month to ask the state legislative delegation to propose legislation to remove the park property from the town`s jurisdiction because of what county officials saw as overly restrictive conditions placed on the park`s development by town officials.
Thursday`s compromise was made possible by a separate negotiating session between Commissioners Dorothy Wilken and Ken Adams and town officials. Town and county staff members also held meetings.

Did you know that North Dakota floated on the ocean less than 100 years ago? It's true! Proof can be found at the North Dakota Heritage Center in Bismarck. Of course, that North Dakota was not the state, but it was named in honor of the state of North Dakota. What was the North Dakota?
The USS North Dakota was a huge battleship that belonged to the United States Navy. This enormous ship was 518 feet long (almost the length of two football fields), 85 feet wide, and weighed 20 thousand tons (40 million pounds). Nearly 1,000 sailors lived aboard this "USS," or "United States Ship." At the time it was built, the USS North Dakota was the biggest, fastest, and most powerful battleship in the world.
On November 10, 1908, Governor John Burke and about 150 other North Dakotans traveled to Quincy, Massachusetts for the launching of the USS North Dakota. The ship was completed and put into official use on April 11, 1910. This battleship was used for training sailors, carrying troops, and guarding the East Coast of the United States. It never took part in a battle.
A tradition, or custom, at the time of the building of the USS North Dakota was for the people of a state to purchase a silver service for a ship named in honor of their state. A silver service is a set of fancy dishes made of silver or coated with silver. The dishes are used for special occasions to serve punch, coffee, or sometimes meals. A silver service often includes a punch bowl; cups; a ladle, or dipper; several platters, or large serving plates; and candelabra (kan-dah-LAH-brah), or fancy candlesticks.
When the U.S. Navy decided to name a ship in honor of North Dakota, Governor John Burke appointed a commission, or committee, to be in charge of purchasing a silver service for the ship. The commission's job was to decide which pieces would be included, to choose a design, and to order the items.
The commission members got together and decided that the silver service for the USS North Dakota would be made up of 40 pieces. The largest and heaviest piece of the set would be the punch bowl. Gorham Silver Company of New York was hired to make the silver dishes.
A contest was then held to see who could come up with the best design to decorate the silver service. The winner was 24-year-old Hans Klimmek of Fargo. His prize for winning the contest was $50 (about $1,250 in today's dollars). Mr. Klimmek worked as an engraver for a printing company, so he knew a lot about making designs. An engraver is someone who carves designs into metal, wood, or other materials.
Mr. Klimmek based his designs on scenes and symbols of North Dakota. The large punch bowl had carved bison heads for handles and was decorated with engravings of Indian tipis, a covered wagon, tractors, a city with a rising sun, and images from the official State Seal of North Dakota. The wild prairie rose, North Dakota's state flower, was engraved onto many of the dishes.
The commission expected that the silver service would cost about $10,000 (about $250,000 in today's dollars). In order to raise money, fundraising committees were set up in all 53 counties of the state. Each county was to raise a certain amount of money to help pay for the silver service.
When the dishes were all finished, however, they ended up costing $16,000 (about $400,000 in today's dollars). That was a lot of money for the people of North Dakota to raise, and they were not able to reach their goal by the time the ship was finished in 1910. Because the silver service had not been paid for, it could not be given to the USS North Dakota.
In 1914, the commission again tried to raise money. This time, they asked banks and organizations for help. Several banks around the state, as well as the Elks Club, the Knights of Columbus, and other organizations donated money. This money was added to the funds that had already been collected by the counties, and the goal of $16,000 was reached.
On May 15, 1915, five years after the USS North Dakota went to sea, the ship finally received the gift from its honored state. A group of people from North Dakota, including Governor L.B. Hanna, had traveled to New York City. As the big battleship was docked in New York Harbor, the North Dakotans presented the beautiful 40-piece engraved silver service to U.S. Navy officers on board the USS North Dakota.
The silver service of the USS North Dakota now had its permanent home. Or did it?
In 1922, the United States signed a treaty with four other large nations of the world. The purpose of this agreement was to help keep world peace. The five countries signing the treaty all promised to reduce the size of their navies.
The U.S. Navy needed to decide which battleships to give up. Because the USS North Dakota had been having a lot of engine trouble, it ended up on the list of U.S. ships headed for destruction.
In 1923, the USS North Dakota was taken out of use. The silver service, which had been a gift from the people of North Dakota, was removed and packed into boxes. It was then placed in storage at a U.S. Navy base in Virginia.
Frederick Cathro, a citizen who had attended the silver service presentation in 1915, had an idea. He thought that the people of North Dakota should get their silver dishes back. He wrote letters to James Sinclair, North Dakota's US. Representative in Congress, asking if he could help get the silver service back to its home state.
Congressman Sinclair liked Mr. Cathro's idea. He met with North Dakota's two U.S. Senators, Gerald Nye and Lynn Frazier. They also agreed that the dishes should be moved to North Dakota.
Congressman Sinclair introduced a bill into Congress, and the bill became law on April 24, 1926. The law stated that the silver service from the USS North Dakota should be the responsibility of the State Historical Society of North Dakota. It would still belong to the U.S. Navy but would be on loan to the people of North Dakota.
In July of 1926, the silver service was taken out of storage and briefly put on display in Grand Forks, Fargo, and several other North Dakota towns. It was then brought to the Liberty Memorial Building on the State Capitol grounds in Bismarck. At that time, this building housed the official state museum. Governor Arthur Sorlie and his wife hosted a reception at which 800 people welcomed the set of silver dishes to its new home.
Between 1915 and 1923, the silver dishes from the USS North Dakota had traveled to England, France, Cuba, Italy, Spain, and all along the East Coast of the United States. These silver pieces, however, were more than just fancy dishes that had been used on a ship. They became significant artifacts.
In this context, an artifact is a human-made object that is an important part of history. Artifacts are objects that were made in the past and teach us about how people lived and what was important to them. Today, they remind us about our history and help us understand our past.
When the North Dakota Heritage Center opened in 1980, the silver service was moved to this new state museum. In 1997, the Navy asked Congress to amend the rules so that the people of North Dakota could now own the silver service. Today, many pieces of this valuable treasure are on display for everyone to enjoy.
Would you like to use your silver service? You may get that chance! Every four years, everyone is invited to the Governor's Inaugural Ball in the capital city of Bismarck. At this event, punch is served from a silver punchbowl.
The punchbowl has carved bison heads for handles; it is beautifully engraved with symbols of North Dakota; it is the largest piece of a beautiful silver service. This is the same punchbowl that once sailed the high seas aboard the mighty U.S. battleship, the USS North Dakota!
The Silver Service on display at the State Historical Society.
The punch bowl is the single largest piece of the set.

Historians like to find documents that prove the facts of events from the past. The silver service itself stands as one, very large fact about its own history. You can see pictures of the silver dishes on this web page, or you can visit the Heritage Center in Bismarck to see the set.
Another form of proof that events took place can be found in letters and in such things as laws. Here we have copies of letters that prove that the events you just read about actually took place. The originals are in the State Historical Society Archive in the Heritage Center. You can read:
Mr. Cathro's letter to Congressman Sinclair
Congressman Sinclair's first letter to Mr. Cathro
Congressman Sinclair's second letter to Mr. Cathro
Congressman Sinclair's third letter to Mr. Cathro
The bill that Congressman Sinclair submitted to the U.S. House of Representatives.
The law that was passed by both the House of Representatives and the Senate allowing the Navy to return the silver service on loan to North Dakota.

INGEDE Symposium 2016
Have you missed the INGEDE Symposium 2016 on February 24th, 2016?
Presentations: Here are all the presentations of the 2016 symposium (with pdfs for download).
Program: Here is the program (pdf for download).
Print is not dead! Print is advantageous to electronic media! Martyn Eustace of Two Sides UK gave a keynote presentation at the INGEDE Symposium. Martyn reviewed consumer attitudes towards print media as well as explain the Two Sides and Print Power campaigns which inform both consumers and media specifiers about the attractiveness, sustainability and incredible effectiveness of print and paper in a multi-channel world.
In Japan, paper recycling is similar to Europe, still there are some differences in the composition of the household collection. Hence there are also some differences in the evaluation. Shisei Goto of Nippon Paper presented about "The Assessment and development of easy-recyclable printing materials in Japan".
Ulla Forsström of VTT (Finland) presented the EU-funded REFFIBRE Project where tools are developed for the paper and board industry that can instantly provide the needed information regarding the impact of new production processes, raw material input and product innovations, as well as the influence on the recyclability of the end product. The tools enable paper makers to consider innovations affecting profitability in the value chain.
Adhesives from recycled paper can lead to sticky deposits in the paper machine. Fully dispersible/soluble adhesives might be an alternative when removable products are not available. Thierry Delagoutte of CTP presented a new test method to assess the dispersible character during repulping and simple tests including colloidal stability evaluation and possible control by process additives. This method is being developed in the course of an INGEDE Project.
The next INGEDE Symposium will take place in Munich on February 8, 2017.

I happen to be a BBQ expert.

The skewers come in all sorts of flavors, including Thai Coconut Lime, Garlic herb, Citrus Rosemary and Honey Bourbon.

Thus, infusing it with BBQ glory in just minutes. They cost about $8 bucks. See, wasn't that easy.

How do you turn a late night cram session into a delicious opportunity? Just ask Richard Perl, chairman and CEO of Chocolat Michel Cluizel, the Manhattan outpost of the legendary Parisian chocolatier. They've made late night cramming easier than ever thanks to their new "time release" cocoa nibs wrapped in dark chocolate. Perl says, "they deliver the clarity, mental focus and peak concentration levels you look for from a cup of coffee without the negative side effects like anxiety or that jittery feeling you get from high doses of caffeine."
These wonderfully delicious Michel Cluizel Cocoa Nib "prescriptions" are appropriately sold by the vial. You can find them here .
Picture yourself taking a nice big bite of a bitter lemon. Mmmm. Now imagine somehow, miraculously it suddenly tasted sweet. Well, that's the miracle of a pink-colored tablet containing a sweet-inducing protein called miraculin, made from a tropical fruit native to West Africa. Pop one tablet and anything sour that you eat will taste sweet for up to 2 hours. That's because the protein miraculin firmly finds to sweet receptor cells in a person's tongue when sour substances are present. The protein transmits a false message to the brain, resulting in a strong, sweet taste.

These chopsticks are perfect if you just don't have it in you to reach across the table in one direction for the soy sauce and then reach the opposite way for the wasabe, or duck sauce, or whatever. I'm too lazy to think about what I could put in these remarkable Sauce Dispensing Pipette style Chopsticks. With a simple squeeze you release just the right amount of added spice. Mmmm… anyone up for a little Dim Sum?

The ice cream lock. I need one of those.
And the dial up the heat hot sauce is pretty cool. The should apply that same idea to other spice mixes. How about a BBQ sauce that goes from sweet to spicy? Or salsa that does the same?
by Anonymous Betty Cracker (not verified)
(10) Keep Your Hands Off My Pint?
--How ironic: through their efforts to save the depleted rain forests, Ben & Jerry have endangered the human race--people now need protection from the very ice cream that was designed to protect the rain forests
--Byproducts of buying their product include debilitating obsessive-compulsive and other psychiatric disorders, physical injuries sustained from assaults by "loved ones", and--in people who tried prying the locks off with their teeth--bad cases of lock jaw
--But leave it to Ben & Jerry to unlock another mystery: the solution. Since laughter is the best medicine, Ben & Jerry addicts are urged to use Good Humor instead
( 9) Chop Sticks Built For Kids?
--These do help keep kids in line, but not for the reason you might guess
--As in the past when kids are given chopsticks to use, they will invariably ask, "Mommy, can I eat with a fork instead?"
--Parents will still have to provide regular eating utensils, but these chopsticks are actually fun to PLAY with--items from the salad bowl, roll basket, or main entree are used like Colorforms to dress the chopsticks and occupy kids' time at the restaurant. Making stick men isn't new, but dressing them with organic food is
--And, finally, the phrase "Please pass the dressing" makes sense
( 8) Fashionable Retro Plate?
--The affluent designer, who already had his plate full, lost his senses and made himself a plate fool
( 7) Do-It Yourself Nostalgia Maker?
--Finding out this information was like going on an Easter Egg Hunt, but the marshmallow peep maker lost the class action lawsuit which alleged that the company was engaging in false and/or misleading advertisement and was mandated by the court to either change the wording on the product or make the product accurately match its labeling. The "solution", provided by this machine, is what may now accurately be called a "Newborn Peep". Case closed.
( 6) Living It Up In The Middle Of Nowhere?
--Although this fast espresso maker works at 4400 feet above sea level, the coffee produced works very fast below waist level--the espresso is also espisso. Unless you wear Depends, don't depend on this machine to satisfy all your urges
( 5) Hot Sauce With A Serious Twist?
--This product has been receiving inconsistent ratings. Some people rate it as "hot" whereas others say it is only "mild"
--Restaurants also have mixed opinions. Fast food restaurants believe they have always had this available, but only in little plastic packages "to go", so don't intend to buy it

You should get royalties from Ben & Jerry's--I have bought maybe 2 pints in the past few years, but this week--after seeing this--I bought three! I don't think they are that great, but for some reason I still bought them.

While some people rave over the ice cream, other people and agencies (e.g., Humane Society of U.S.) are attacking Ben & Jerry for continuing to use eggs from farm factories that are cruel to the hens--such as using little cages.
Perhaps Ben & Jerry should be locked out of the so-called "battery cage factory farms".

Conserving Biodiversity Project hosts Open DayApr 25, 2017
A team of entomologists is cataloguing various species of beetles and other invertebrates that are present in several unique locations in St. Kitts and Nevis. "Here in St. Kitts, these species only occur in a very narrow area, and therefore it is very important globally. They need to be documented, explained, celebrated and then protected," remarks Dr. Michael Ivie, an entomologist, at an Open Day event held as part of the "Conserving Biodiversity and reducing habitat degradation in Protected Areas and their areas of influence" Project, funded by the Global Environment Facility (GEF).
The event was organised as part of the outreach activities of the Conserving Biodiversity project to provide the population of St. Kitts and Nevis, particularly schoolchildren, with an opportunity to interact with a group of researchers developing a terrestrial ecological inventory of the country and learn about its unique biodiversity. The team consists of a wide range of experts: agronomist, herpetologist, forester, entomologist, GIS specialist, botanist, and research students. The purpose of the inventory is to collect vital data on the flora and fauna of the established and proposed protected areas, including the Central Forest Reserve National Park, the Booby Island Nature Park, the Nevis Peak National Park and the Camps River Watershed Area.
Claudia Drew, Project Coordinator, says, "It is important for us to conserve our biodiversity because we have to ensure that measures are in place to combat climate change and its impacts. It is equally important for us to continue to have a pristine environment because one of our main industries is tourism and obviously tourists do not want to go to a place where the natural environment is degraded." And that is the focus of the Conserving Biodiversity project. Its objective is to expand and strengthen the terrestrial and marine protected areas system, and reduce habitat degradation in their areas of influence that negatively impact Protected Areas ecological functioning.
A number of students from local primary and secondary schools attended the event and interacted with Dr. Ivie and his research team. One of the students stated that she gained new knowledge about global warming, the dangers of climate change, and the importance of protecting natural habitats. Her classmate said, "Persons should go out and learn more about the details of the project as it is important for locals to understand their environment." Based on the feedback from the students and teachers, the Open Day event provided a unique learning opportunity to them: they deepened their understanding of the local invertebrates and more importantly being so close to the creatures allayed some of their fears.

The Lightkeeper's Ball
Olivia Stewart is almost past marriage age. Though, she is only twenty-five, which is not that old, when you live in a society like Olivia, twenty-five is considered a spinster. Olivia and her mother are in desperate need of money. When they learn that Olivia's sister, Eleanor has drowned prior to marrying her fiancé, Harrison Bennett, this is bad news. Both that Eleanor has died and without Harrison being married, Olivia's mother has lost rights to part of the diamond mine. Before Olivia can stop her head from spinning, she is offered up to Harrison as his new wife. Olivia has suspicions about Harrison. She believes that he had something to do with Eleanor's death. She aims to learn the truth.
The Lightkeeper's Ball is the latest book in the Mercy Falls series. It can be read as a stand alone novel. Which is good as this is the first book I have read in this series. I was able to jump right in. I could tell right away that Harrison's reputation was worse than his real personality. He actually did care and had great drive on his mission. I thought it was funny that everyone that he talked to about how some day airplanes will be the new way of transportation just laughed at him and said it would never happen. Well Harrison was right or I should say…"Wright" as in the Wright Brothers. While the romance between Harrison and Olivia was slow to get start, which is understandable considering that Olivia hated Harrison at first. When they did finally fall for each other it was alright, nothing to write home about. The Lightkeeper's Ball did have some sweet moments, the story was alright but my favorite was Harrison.

I really hope i am..

Me and my boyfriend have been having unprotected sex for a while now. I was supposed to get my period March 13th, but never did. Then on March 19th, i got an abnormal bleeding. It lasted for four days and it was very light. This never happened to me before. I am very moody, everything I eat, i get nauseous afterwards and my boobs hurt! I had a blood test, that came out negative, and i took urine tests and they were negative too. I want to be pregnant so bad, i cry every time I get my period. Could I be pregnant? Or am I just getting my hopes up?
answers (1)
Sorry to be the bearer of bad news but the likelihood of you being pregnant if your bloodtest came back negative is slim to none. Me and my boyfried had been trying to have kids for 5 years and as soon as I stopped stressing over it was when it finally happened. as hard as it is, try not to put too much pressure on yourself. If in a couple of weeks your symptoms don't go away, yo coulld always go back and request another blood test. Good luck

The four main types of physical activity are:
Aerobic activity is the type that benefits your heart and lungs the most.
Aerobic activity moves your large muscles, such as those in your arms and legs. Examples of aerobic activity are:
Aerobic activity is also called "endurance activity".
Aerobic activity makes your heart beat faster than usual. You also breathe harder during this type of activity. Over time, regular aerobic activity makes your heart and lungs stronger and able to work better.
Muscle-strengthening activities improve the strength, power, and endurance of your muscles. Examples of muscle-strengthening activities are:
Muscle-strengthening activities also can be aerobic, depending on whether they make your heart and lungs work harder than usual. For example, climbing stairs is both an aerobic activity and a muscle-strengthening activity.
With bone-strengthening activities, your feet, legs, or arms support your body's weight, and your muscles push against your bones. This helps make your bones strong. Examples of bone-strengthening activities are:
Bone-strengthening activities also can be aerobic, depending on whether they make your heart and lungs work harder than usual. For example, running is both an aerobic activity and a bone-strengthening activity.
Stretching helps improve your flexibility and your ability to fully move your joints. Examples of stretching are:
You can do aerobic activity with light, moderate, or vigorous intensity. Moderate- and vigorous-intensity aerobic activities are better for your heart than light-intensity activities. However, even light-intensity activities are better than no activity at all.
The level of intensity depends on how hard you have to work to do the activity. To do the same activity, people who are less fit usually have to work harder than people who are more fit. So, for example, what is light-intensity activity for one person may be moderate-intensity for another.
Light-intensity activities are common daily activities that do not require much effort.
Moderate-intensity activities make your heart, lungs, and muscles work harder than light-intensity activities do.
On a scale of 0 to 10, moderate-intensity activity is a 5 or 6 and produces noticeable increases in breathing and heart rate. If you are doing moderate-intensity activity, you can talk but not sing.
Vigorous-intensity activities make your heart, lungs, and muscles work hard.
On a scale of 0 to 10, vigorous-intensity activity is a 7 or 8. If you are doing vigorous-intensity activity, you cannot say more than a few words without stopping for a breath.

Led by our personable and highly credentialed Reza Rod, MD, you will understand and feel comfortable with any body contouring procedure before it is performed. Dr. Rod was trained at the world renowned Mayo Clinic and is certified by the American Board of Plastic Surgery.
We offer breast augmentation and all other plastic surgery procedures, along with a wide array of non-surgical treatments to ensure you receive the care and results you deserve. Welcome to Plastic Surgery in the 21st century, where our goal is to ensure your spirit is reflected in your new appearance! Body contouring involves multiple techniques to treat trouble spots throughout the body. Liposuction, tummy tucks, arm, buttock and thigh lifts all can have an amazing effect on the image you present to the world.
At Dermacare Cosmetic Surgery we go a step further, our goal is to let your appearance reflect your spirit. Whether you want to uplift, reshape or transform your body, schedule your free consultation today and find a procedure that is right for you!
If you're not happy with shaving, tweezing, or waxing to remove unwanted hair, laser hair removal may be an option worth considering. Laser Hair Removal is one of the most commonly done cosmetic procedures in the U.S. It beams highly concentrated light into hair follicles. Pigment in the follicles absorb the light. That destroys the hair.
Laser Vein Removal has become a popular treatment option for spider veins. This revolutionary advance in vein removal provides rapid results with no lifestyle interruption. Our laser treats both red and blue, facial and leg veins without incisions, the use of needles, and any downtime!
If you have a lot of excess skin in your arms after weight loss, or the skin on your arms is just inherently loose, an Arm Lift from Dermacare Cosmetic Surgery may be just what you need!
A flat and well-toned abdomen is something many of us strive for through exercise and weight control. Sometimes these methods cannot achieve our goals. Tummy tuck surgery, also known as Abdominoplasty, removes excess fat and skin and, in most cases, restores weakened or separated muscles creating an abdominal profile that is smoother and firmer.
A Body Lift improves the shape and tone of the underlying tissue that supports fat and skin. Excess sagging fat and skin are removed and the procedure(s) can improve a dimpled, irregular skin surface, which is commonly known as cellulite.
Many women are born with breasts that are out of proportion with their bodies. Breasts can be too large or too small, which can have a serious effect on a woman's self-image, as well as her health. Breast Augmentation surgery involves using breast implants or fat, referred to as fat transfer breast augmentation, to increase the size of your breasts or restore breast volume that has been lost after weight reduction or pregnancy.
Breast Lift firms and raises the breasts, combating the forces of gravity, nursing and pregnancy. Over the years breasts can lose their shape, and mastopexy can reverse that process, thereby making your breasts appear more youthful. Mastopexy can also reduce the size of an enlarged areola.
Women that have breasts that are too large for their bodies can have severe health repercussions, mainly in the form of back and neck pain. A Breast Reduction will not only remove the excess weight, but also reshape the appearance of your breasts, making them proportionate to your body size.
Buttock Augmentation surgery, sometimes referred to as a Brazilian butt lift when fat transfer is involved, uses implants, fat grafting or sometimes a combination of both to increase the size of your buttocks.
Labiaplasty is a minor surgical procedure for large labia reduction and female genital cosmetic surgery. Now women have the option to surgically correct this problem which can cause chaffing, pain, and discomfort during every day activities such as riding a bicycle or during sexual intercourse.
A Thigh Lift reshapes the thighs by reducing excess skin, and in some cases fat. You get smoother skin and better-proportioned contours of the thighs and lower body. If fitness and weight loss efforts have not achieved your goals for a body that is firmer, more youthful-looking and more proportionate to your overall body image, a surgical lift may be right for you.
Treat Any Zone On Your Body. Remove stubborn body fat from one or more areas at the same time, including difficult or delicate spots that require extra special care.
Less Bruising, Less Swelling. Body fat is gently removed using a special cannula that does not burn or cut and stops when non-fatty tissue is touched, reducing trauma while improving fat removal.
Even Skin Tightening and Toning. The fibrous network and non-fatty tissue under the skin are preserved while improved fat removal uniformity provides excellent skin retraction and flat, smooth skin.
Precise Body Contouring. The body is sculpted with precision to the desired shape and size, removing all types of fat, including fibrous, more effectively.
This is a non-surgical and minimally-invasive procedure using Radiofrequency (RF) energy to stimulate collagen for tightening and smoothing facial, neck and body skin. ThermiRF™ is an excellent option for those patience who do not wish to have either injectable or surgical procedures performed.

A party is a gathering of people who have been invited by a host for the purposes of socializing, conversation, recreation, or as part of a festival or other commemoration of a special occasion. A party will typically feature food and beverages, and often music and dancing or other forms of entertainment. In many Western countries, parties for teens and adults are associated with drinking alcohol such as beer, wine or distilled spirits.
Some parties are held in honor of a specific person, day, or event, such as a birthday party, a Super Bowl party, or a St. Patrick's Day party. Parties of this kind are often called celebrations. A party is not necessarily a private occasion. Public parties are sometimes held in restaurants, pubs, beer gardens, nightclubs or bars, and people attending such parties may be charged an admission fee by the host. Large parties in public streets may celebrate events such as Mardi Gras or the signing of a peace treaty ending a long war.
A birthday party is a celebration of the anniversary of the birth of the person who is being honored. The tradition started in the mid-nineteenth century but did not become popular until the mid-twentieth century.[1] Birthday parties are now a feature of many cultures.
