Keep calm and show beef
4-H'er stays strong despite trials in ring
Staff writer
Weston Schroeder, 9, of Chase County loves making friends with other 4-H'ers at the spring beef show, but this year he learned an important showmanship lesson.
"No matter what happens, you just have to know to stay calm," he said. "That's the key."
Schroeder was one of more than 35 4-H members competing at the Marion County Beef Show Saturday at the county fairgrounds in Hillsboro.
With a sense of determination in his stride, Schroeder took the leather halter and held his animal's head high as they entered the ring. He knew one thing: he was going to do his best.
Schroeder started showing beef cattle last year, but didn't prepare for it as well as he should have. He commented that it takes a lot of work and commitment to show beef cattle.
"You've got to be out there with them all the time — not just during show time," he said.
For eight months, Schroeder has gone out to the barn every day — not just to water and feed his animals, but to spend some time in training with each one.
"I usually try to walk them around a bit, so they get used to the feel of the halter," he said. "Then it's not so much of a surprise."
True to form, Schroeder's heifer stood stock still outside the cattle show ring. There was just one problem: she didn't want to walk.
"Sometimes she wants to move, other times she doesn't," he said. "Can't help it."
While in the ring, he also had some issues controlling his animal.
But, he had been trained to overcome these circumstances and he knew what to do: keep calm and get through it.
"I just couldn't get her under control," he said. "I lost her once, but not for long; she didn't go too far. She was just getting tired of the ring."
While the 4-H'er was able to get his animal under control, he struggled through it — and was only able to persevere by pure attitude.
"I just decided that I was going to finish the class," he said.
Taking a deep breath each time she acted up, Schroeder leaned his bodyweight into the animal in order to get her moving in the right direction.
He said it took all of the strength he had in his arms to keep her head help up high.
Schroeder said he spent hours before the show getting his Simmental and Charolais crossbred cattle fitted for the show and was disappointed when he came in second during his novice showmanship class.
Judge Jeff Stump from Ill. said he was impressed with the quality of Schroeder's cattle and hopes the difficulty he had in the ring doesn't discourage him from showing.
"You have the makings of a great showman, right there," he said, speaking of Schroeder. "A different day, with a different judge, there might have been a different result.
"But that's just how I saw it today, with the animal he had."

Chili-walnut scrambled eggs with rucola
I was busy today with shopping and home chores, and needed something to snack on and get some energy kick. I managed to buy some chili peppers earlier today, and decided to make a savory scrambled eggs with a delicious, energetic spicy twist! :-) And oh my, that was both tasty and exciting!
Marshmallows for hot drinks
While the standard marshmallows are cooked to be large and sturdy on their own, the ones for hot drinks should be creamy and melting easily. Try my recipe, although similar to the basic one, to enjoy beautiful and tasty hot drinks marshmallows! :-)
Whole-grain bread rolls
There are not many things that can beat the whole grain bread, unless it's 8 delicious little whole grain breadrolls ;-) These are perfect for breakfast, and you can easily prepare and bake them in one evening, for e.g. Sunday breakfast! :-)
My fool-proof recipe will be a great fun, and a good addition to your baking arsenal.
Oh my, that is one of my most favorite recipes — who doesn't love these spongy, almost weightless little cubes of sweetness?! With my super simple recipe you will (quite literally) whip up some of them in no time!
When you make your own pasta, you will always end up with some scraps, even more if you make ravioli. You can easily recycle this leftover pasta to make maltagliati, meaning "poorly cut" in Italian, which was traditionally meant as food for the poor. We are way past that, and today you can enjoy rich texture and amazing flavor of your pasta without the social stigma ;-)

MONSMA, Karl. Advantages of immigrants and disadvantages of Afro-Brazilians: employment, property, family structure and literacy after abolition in western São Paulo state. Dados [online]. 2010, vol.5Selected edition, pp. 0-0. ISSN 0011-5258.
Based on data from a municipal census in 1907, this study compared the situations of Blacks, White Brazilians, and various immigrant groups in early 20th century Western São Paulo. Contrary to assertions in the literature, many Black families were small coffee farmers, and Blacks competed with Europeans in various other manual occupations. Meanwhile, Blacks were almost completely absent from the elites, and literacy rates were extremely low among Blacks, including in the new generation, born after Abolition. The study analyzes the advantages and disadvantages of these various groups, thereby contributing to new hypotheses on the consequences of large-scale European immigration for the Black population.

LOS ANGELES (AP) — Wichita State is headed to the Final Four, and these Shockers should be no surprise to anybody.
Not after the way they held off mighty Ohio State in the West Regional final.
Malcolm Armstead scored 14 points, Fred Van Vleet bounced in a big basket with 1 minute left, and ninth-seeded Wichita State earned its first trip to the Final Four since 1965 with a 70-66 victory over the Buckeyes on Saturday.
Van Vleet scored 12 points as the Shockers (30-8) followed up last week's win over top-ranked Gonzaga with a nail-biting victory over the second-seeded Buckeyes (29-8), whose 11-game winning streak ended one game short of their second straight Final Four.
Wichita State is just the fifth team seeded ninth or higher to reach the Final Four since seeding began in 1979, but the second in three years following 11th-seeded VCU's improbable run in 2011.
"Last year we were watching all this on television," said Cleanthony Early, who scored 12 points. "Now I'm looking at a hat that says 'Final Four Atlanta' with my team on it. It's crazy. I still can't believe we're here. You try to expect it, but you expect a lot of things that don't happen. This really happened."
Wichita State roared to a 20-point lead with 11 minutes to play after Ohio State played an awful first half, but LaQuinton Ross scored 15 of his 19 points after halftime, leading a ferocious rally that got the Buckeyes within three points in the final minutes.
But after Tekele Cotton hit a 3-pointer with 2:20 left, VanVleet scored on a shot that bounced all over the rim before dropping. Ron Baker and Cotton hit last-minute free throws to secure the second Final Four trip in Wichita State's history.
The Shockers are also the kings of Kansas, reaching the national semifinals after the powerful Jayhawks and Kansas State both went down.
"We're happy, but I'm still shocked," said Carl Hall, the glasses-wearing big man who scored eight points and led the Shockers' strong defensive effort. "We've got a team full of fighters. I brought them all together near the end and said, 'No matter what happens, I love y'all.' We had to fight so hard. We've got each other's backs, and it's hard to beat a team that's got five guys who work together like us."
Deshaun Thomas scored 21 points after missing nine of his first 12 shots for Ohio State, which made just 24 percent of its first-half shots. Aaron Craft scored nine points on 2-for-12 shooting for the Buckeyes, who dug a hole too deep to escape with their second-half rally.
"The way we shot coming into the Sweet 16, Elite Eight, everything was falling," Thomas said. "Today, it just wasn't our night. Nothing was falling."
But after two weeks of upsets in the wild West bracket, underdog Wichita State seemed an appropriate pick to cut down Staples Center's nets. The Shockers' well-balanced roster managed built that enormous lead with the same consummate team play that they've shown throughout the tournament.
Two sections packed with cheering Shockers fans provided all the encouragement necessary for a team that didn't win the Missouri Valley Conference tournament and was thought to be a bubble team for an NCAA berth. Now, Wichita State is the MVC's first Final Four team since Larry Bird led Indiana State to the title game in 1979.
Another giant awaits the Shockers in Atlanta next weekend: They'll face the winner of Sunday's Midwest Regional final between Duke and Louisville.
"We're all new to this, but I think we're ready for this," Early said. "We're going to prepare ourselves, and this game was pretty good preparation. We started at the bottom, and we've been working our way up."
Seven seasons after underdog George Mason crashed the Final Four and underlined college basketball's growing parity, the Shockers are the latest smallish school to get on a big roll in the tournament. Butler made the national championship game in 2010 and 2011, and the Bulldogs were joined by that VCU team in the Final Four two years ago.
This year's tournament included stunning wins by Florida Gulf Coast, La Salle and Harvard, but nobody kept it going longer than Wichita State.
Although the Shockers have a beautiful home arena and robust support from fans and donors in Kansas' largest city, coach Gregg Marshall acknowledged that Wichita State's athletic budget is a fraction of what a BCS school can spend. He hasn't let it slow the Shockers.
The 50-year-old Marshall, who says he's "not a jumper" when it comes to job opportunities, spent nine seasons at Winthrop, making seven NCAA tournaments before moving to Wichita in 2007, where he rebuilt the Shockers into a Top 25 team last year — only to lose to 12th-seeded VCU in the first round of the 2012 tournament.
Wichita State made it this year as a bubble team after losing in the Missouri Valley Conference tourney, but the Shockers followed up an opening-round win over Pitt with an impressive victory over Gonzaga, the top seed in the West and the No. 1 team in the nation at the end of the regular season.
After the Shockers easily beat La Salle two days ago, Marshall's pregame speech to the Shockers on Saturday finished with talk of cutting down the nets at Staples Centerbefore getting on that plane back to Kansas, saying Wichita State didn't have to play "a perfect game" to beat mighty Ohio State.
"The Mecca awaits in Atlanta," he said.
Marshall was right, but he couldn't have anticipated just how imperfect Ohio State would be.
The postseason-tested Buckeyes appeared calm and confident during warmups in front of their healthy fan contingent, yet they proceeded to play the first half just like NCAA newbies.
They missed their first seven shots after the opening tip in a string capped by an airballed 3-pointer from Thomas, who missed his first five overall. The junior star was labeled "a bad-shot taker and a bad-shot maker" by Marshall on Friday, but he only lived up to the first part of that billing while going 4 for 13 in the first half.
Early hit two 3-pointers in the opening minutes, and the Shockers stretched their lead to 13 points shortly before halftime.
"You've got to give them credit," Craft said. "They really came out firing and we really didn't regain our footing until it was too late."
Hall went to the locker room after drawing a charge from Thomas early in the second half, holding the back of his head after Thomas' elbow clipped him on the jaw and sending his protective goggles flying. Hall found his glasses and got back in the game 66 seconds later.
Wichita State gradually stretched its lead early in the second half, with Early's layup putting the Shockers up 53-33 with 12:09 to play.
Ross desperately tried to rally the Buckeyes, scoring eight consecutive points and leading a 23-6 run midway through the second half. Ohio State went into a full-court inbounds defense, and Shannon Scott's free throws with 2:49 left cut the lead to 62-59 — but Ohio State couldn't get closer.

My daughter's shoes were getting a bit roughed up and I really had to stop filling in the scuffs with my Sharpie as she left for school in the morning. I had two ideas: spray paint and glitter!
Oh did she looooove both ideas as much as I did!
I had seen glitter shoe tutorials before, and I knew the basics: Mod Podge and glitter. But I wasn't sure about the order in which to apply them and what do I do about things like straps and buckles and cute flowers on the shoes? I mean do I mix the Mod Podge and glitter together and paint it on? Or should I paint on the Mod Podge and sprinkle the glitter on? Here is what I found that worked best for me!
I started with these...
and turned them into these...
and it was pretty easy!
{Tutorial} for Glittery Shoes (with straps and stuff)
1. Prep your shoes by stuffing with plastic bags and taping off parts you don't want glittered. I unbuckled the strap and let it hang out. I taped off the velcro on the straps, too!
2. Put about a tablespoon of glitter in a plastic cup or something you can pitch when you are done. I mixed three colors of glitter here- all Martha Stewart glitters.
3. Add a blob of Mod Podge to the glitter and mix with paint brush until is it a thick mixture of the two. At first it will be dry but keep adding small blobs of the glue until it is a paintable glitter. When you paint it on the shoe, work in small areas at a time. **I found this works better than adding the glitter to the glue because I couldn't estimate the glue and had to dump a ton of glitter in or paint on a bunch of coats to get it as glittery as I wanted. And I wasted a lot of glitter by painting Mod Podge on first then sprinkling glitter on it.
I started at the toe and worked back. I glittered the strap last. And don't get any glue on the flower, if you have one.
4. As they are drying you can add more glitter to any spots you missed. For touch ups on the toes, I painted on only Mod Podge and then sprinkled glitter to really get them sparkly! Repeat the layers until they look glittery enough for you.
5. When the main color was dry, I smothered the flower with Mod Podge and poured silver glitter in every nook and cranny. I let it set up just a minute then shook off the glitter.
6. After they are dry...Lastly, I added two thin coats of just Mod Podge over the entire shoe.
When they are completely dry (patience...) carefully remove the stuffing and the tape. I had to use my fingernail to keep the tape from pulling off the good stuff. Just go slowly. Trust me.
I think these shoes are pretty durable. The Mod Podge kept them flexible enough for a five-year old to run around in them. I think the thin layers of the glue helped also.

Denmark's Lasse Jensen will take a share of the lead into the final round of the Barclays Kenya Open after carding a stunning six under par 65 on day three at Muthaiga Golf Club in Nairobi.
The 27 year old sits alongside Englishman Gary Lockerbie, who had a fine 67, and the pair are three shots clear of their respective compatriots Morten Orum Madsen of Denmark and England's Seve Benson, who eagled the last for a 71 and Jordan Gibb, who signed for a 67.
Jensen's swashbuckling performance, which featured birdies at the third, sixth, ninth, tenth, 13th and 18th, ensured there was still a Dane atop the leaderboard, although this was at the expense of Madsen, leader for the first two rounds, who struggled to a one over par 72.
"I just managed today to keep my head down and hit fairways and greens," said Jensen. "When I missed I got it up and down - my short game saved me when I needed it and that keeps momentum.
"My putting to save pars really kept me going and I think that was the key because then you don't think about a round of three or four or five or six under, you're just thinking about the next hole. Then suddenly you're finished and I'm thinking, 'Six under on this course! That's a great score'.
"It's very demanding and you need some good breaks where it kicks your way and I obviously got those today, but I'm just very pleased to be in contention in the third tournament of the season. I'm very happy it has happened so soon."
Jensen has limited experience of leading a Challenge Tour event, but he believes he has learned a lot in the last year which will stand him in good stead for the final round.
"You really need to enjoy these times in this game because it can be so tough," he added. "I was far up the leaderboard at the ECCO Tour Championship (last August) and was in the lead at a certain point, so I got the feel for it.
"This year I played some winter tours and got two wins out of four and that helps when you're in contention. You learn a lot about yourself, how you react and how you swing when you're under pressure, and the more you're in that situation the more it becomes habit."
Lockerbie had six birdies and two bogeys and was delighted with his position.
"I made a solid start with a birdie at the second and just kept going from there," said the 29 year old. "Towards the end I would have liked to carry on and played my fourth round. I missed a lot of putts early on in the week and I've left a couple out there today, but no one makes them all. It certainly is a nice position to be in.
"I'm looking forward to it and hopefully I can come out on top. The aim was just to try and get in that final group for tomorrow and I've done that, so hopefully I'll wake up in a good mood tomorrow."
Madsen did well to bounce back from a torrid start, birdieing three in a row from the fourth after bogeying the first three holes – all from three-putts – but needed back-to-back birdies on the 17th and 18th to rescue his round, which was marred by a double bogey at the par three 13th.
"I played pretty well but I just couldn't make a putt to save my life," said Madsen. "I missed a bunch of short ones inside four or five feet so it was tough. I'm glad for those birdies coming in, which give me an outside shot going into tomorrow."
Local favourite Dismas Indisa's steady progress was undone by a bogey at the 14th and a triple bogey at the 15th for a disappointing 74. However, Brian Njoroge's level par 71 means a Kenyan remains in contention as he sits in tied sixth on four under.

Lifecycle listener modules provide a means of running short or long duration tasks based on Java technology within the GlassFish Server environment, such as instantiation of singletons or RMI servers. These modules are automatically initiated at server startup and are notified at various phases of the server life cycle. For details about lifecycle modules, see Chapter 13, Developing Lifecycle Listeners.
The configured properties for a lifecycle module are passed as properties during server initialization (the INIT_EVENT). The initial JNDI naming context is not available until server initialization is complete. A lifecycle module can get the InitialContext for lookups using the method LifecycleEventContext.getInitialContext() during, and only during, the STARTUP_EVENT, READY_EVENT, or SHUTDOWN_EVENT server life cycle events.

God continues to bless me, despite of me!
Where to Place Your Faith?
Nothing happens unless…
…life should go on.
Here is yet another resource for you…
Reasonable Faith
Reasonable Faith aims to provide in the public arena an intelligent, articulate, and uncompromising yet gracious Christian perspective on the most important issues concerning the truth of the Christian faith today, such as:
- the existence of God
- the meaning of life
- the objectivity of truth
- the foundation of moral values
- the creation of the universe
- intelligent design
- the reliability of the Gospels
- the uniqueness of Jesus
- the historicity of the resurrection
- the challenge of religious pluralism
Reasonable Faith features the work of philosopher and theologian Dr. William Lane Craig in order to carry out its three-fold mission:
- to provide an articulate, intelligent voice for biblical Christianity in the public arena.
- to challenge unbelievers with the truth of biblical Christianity.
- to train Christians to state and defend Christian truth claims with greater effectiveness.

The Vampire Diaries Season 4 Episode 7 Being a vampire has really changed Elena. And Stefan is not happy about it.
Even though he broke it off with Elena, Stefan is still trying to find a cure. Damien is going to beat the answers out of Professor Shane, who is CLEARLY hiding something. And now the good professor is judging Miss Mystic Falls.
The Vampire Diaries Season 4 Episode 7 Everyone thinks that's creepy.
You know what's also creepy? Jeremy is now super strong that he's become a vampire hunter. He's picking up heavy kegs all over the place. But he's also having bad nightmares.
Caroline promised to go on a date with Klaus, and she's not happy about that either. She's also not happy with Elena for breaking up with Stefan.
The Vampire Diaries Season 4 Episode 7 Hailey is trying to help another hybrid break the sire bond with Klaus. She and Ty and Caroline are trying to keep Klaus away so he doesn't find out.
Damon and Professor Shane are both at the exciting Miss Mystic Falls. Damon says he's looking for another hunter. Damon tells Professor Shane not to give April a pity vote for the pageant and then asks Shane if he convinced the pastor to kill all the people. Shane is not happy. No one is happy tonight.
Jeremy comes to find Stefan, who tells him he can help save his sister. Stefan has conveniently kept a vampire for Jeremy to kill, which Jeremy does, without a whole lot of convincing, we must say.
The Vampire Diaries Season 4 Episode 7 Back at Miss Mystic, Caroline is heading the ceremony. Matt wants to know why Jeremy is missing, and tells Elena about Jeremy's nightmares, particularly the one where Jeremy kills her.
Damon and Elena are chatting at the dance. Then Damon starts bothering the professor again, and Shane says there are five hunters in existence and finding one is next to impossible.
It turns out that even if you complete the hunter's mark and get the map, the map iThe Vampire Diaries Season 4 Episode 7 s sealed with a spell, a witch has to break the spell. A witch like Bonnie. And whom does Bonnie trust? The professor!
Caroline announces that April is the new Miss Mystic Falls. And then Jeremy shows up to the party. Elena wants to know where he's been.
Jeremy says he just wants to drive a stake through Elena's heart. Instead he sticks it in her neck. Matt comes in and pulls Jeremy off Elena. Stefan pulls the stake from her neck.
In the meantime, Hailey tells Jeremy that the professor is hot and smart. Also Klaus says he once thought about being human.

When Paris-based businessman Mr Jean-Victor Meyers couldn't find cashmere knits which met his exacting standards, he decided to collaborate with a close friend, Mr Louis Leboiteux, and make his own. In this way Exemplaire was born, and since its inception in February 2012 this young label has carved out a niche for itself by offering knits that match the quality of traditional brands such as Loro Piana and Hermès with the fashionable, clean aesthetic common to names such as Saint Laurent and Dior Homme.
"On the one hand you had sweaters which were very high quality and very classic, and on the other there were 'designer' ones which were available in slimmer fits, with darker colours and leather detailing, but there were none which combined the look I wanted with the level of quality," Mr Meyers explains.
''It's all about having a nonchalant attitude... and of course there's a hint of rock'n'roll attitude too''
Exemplaire now fills that gap in the market nicely with its precisely cut, sombre-coloured knits that work as well in the office as they do for a night on the town. "They're also great for travelling," Mr Meyers says, "since cashmere is a very luxurious fabric, but it's also extremely comfortable, and that tactile appeal can be welcome on long flights." Whether you opt for the turtleneck cableknit, the shawl-collar zip-up cardigan or one of the classic crew or V necks, you can be sure that the quality and finishing will be impeccable.
"As well as working with the world's leading cashmere supplier to get the best yarns, we also work with highly skilled craftsmen in France and Italy to construct the pieces properly," Mr Meyers tells us. And what about the secret to getting that Parisian look which Exemplaire encapsulates so well? "It's all about having a nonchalant attitude, and investing in discreet yet sophisticated pieces with subtle details that you can carry over from season to season," he says, "and of course there's a hint of rock'n'roll attitude too." Check through the gallery, below, to view the collection.

Halle Berry to star in CBS summer series, 'Extant'
CBS is adding big star power to next summer's lineup.
Halle Berry will star in Extant, a 13-episode drama produced by Steven Spielberg's Amblin Television and CBS Television Studios.
Berry, who won an Oscar for Monster's Ball, will play an astronaut, returning home after a year alone in space, who tries to reconnect with her husband and son. Her experiences in space and at home lead to history-changing events.
"I'm always on the lookout for amazing roles, and when you see material that contains this strong of auspices, nuance and complexity, it compels me to run toward it no matter the medium," Berry said in a statement accompanying the announcement. "For five months a year I'll get to live with and play this incredibly intelligent and vulnerable woman, and for the remainder of the year I'll continue to look for other roles that move me as deeply as this one."
Spielberg and CBS entertainment President Nina Tassler also commented in today's announcement.
"There's only one Halle Berry, and we are incredibly honored that she has chosen Extant to expand her illustrious career," Spielberg said. "As she does with everything she touches, she will bring a deep authenticity to her role and I very much look forward to working with her."
"It's a big coup for CBS to have Halle star in her first television series, especially with such an exciting original concept and a role layered with mystery and humanity," Tassler said.

|Gord Pedersen: 'How does that Silver Sol shit work again?'
I wasn't aware that Dr Gordon Pedersen was the man behind Silver Sol, but he's the one in the commercial so now he owns it in my book. He tells us some gobbledy-gook about his miracle tonic, explaining that the particles of silver are so tiny that they can 'enter a red blood cell'. He says this is good because there's nothing to 'irritate or agitate', and that the particles of silver are just there to 'kill the germs'. I haven't been following the Silver Sol scene, but this sounds very, very stupid to me. Why would anyone voluntarily ingest something that is going to enter their blood cells and 'kill the germs'? How does silver know the difference between a germ and a blood cell? This sounds like an experiment the Japanese would do on Allied POWs to see how long they'd survive. Why would anyone even waste their time with this? It's so stupid it's laughable.
|This is what happens when you follow Jim Bakker's advice

[Bill Whaley] [showing me how to configure the soup cooker] "So you just take this piece here and add this part...wait, hold on, I think I'm missing something."
[Ron] [eyes glossing over] "It's okay Bill, I don't need all that stuff. I'll just eat it cold."
[Bill Whaley] [shock bordering on offense] "Cold soup? Who wants to eat cold soup!? Just gimme a second, there's a piece missing. We'll get your soup cooking in no time!"
[Ron] [looks at watch] "Bill, it's...it's fine. Can I have my soup back please?
[Bill Whaley] [red-faced and aggressive] "No you cannot have your soup back please, I haven't shown you how to heat it yet! Just give me a second."
[Ron] "These aren't seconds anymore, these are minutes now and I'm hungry."
Bill growls threateningly.
[Ron] [laughing] "Why are you getting so upset?"
[Bill Whaley] [screaming] "I'm not upset!"
|Bill Whaley rubs his 40-grit palms together
|The Junk Kook snaps rubber band off yet more garbage
Bill asks one of the Master's Media kids to pass him a piece of garbage that's out of reach. It's yet another crinkly piece of plastic. If this guy lived next door to me, he would drive me bonkers. I recycle. I have plastic and glass bottles wrapped up in bags on the side of my house, not stacked, just lying out there nice and clean, awaiting the few times each year when I have time to unload it all at the recycling center. If Bill lived next door, I just know that guy would be breaking my balls every couple weeks or so, asking if he could have my plastic. I'd have to tell him no, but then I'd realize that he's looking at my house and probably rooting through my garbage at night when I'm sleeping. I'd be powerless to stop him. It would drive me nuts.
|The Junk Tornado unwraps loudly while Lori tries to speak
|Bill Whaley struggling to snug his water filter down tight
|Detective Bill Whaley holds the smoking gun for all to see
You want conspiracy, Bill, well you just got one. A real one this time. You are now in competition with the fake Dr Seychelle and his froggy little buddy, Jim Bakker. You are on a show whose sole intent is to sell product. You, Bill, with all your quirks, are still at heart trying to help people. If you thought that's what Jim Bakker was about, you've made a mistake. The Jim Bakker Show is designed for product-sales, not people-helping. Showing people how to make a cheap water filter is a noble effort on your part, but in Jim's calculating mind, why would he give people something for free when he can charge them for it instead?
|Jim got away from the $7 water filter real quick
|Biker Chick Max tries to remember how much Jim's filters cost
We're back to Jim's first question about how to keep people warm, and Bakker once again refers to homeless people as 'street people'. Whaley grabs a large tin can and starts pulling metal objects out of it while Jim is still talking. Clank, clink, clunk. I know you're off the grid Bill, but I think someone is eventually going to find you out there because of all the noise you make. Do you get a lot of hungry bears out your way?
|Bill Whaley removes small metal can from large metal can
|'Scuse me brother, any sausage cans to spare?
Bill's still driving on with his candle heater. He tells us to place the sausage-can candle into the big tin can, then take a "big 62 oz juice can", poke holes in it and place it over the top of this unwieldy contraption to make a tiny, ineffective heater. I wouldn't even know what a 62 oz juice can looks like, but Bill has the sucker memorized. You've been hanging around the garbage heap for far too long Bill. Here's a life tip: If you converse with more rodents each day than people, then you need a serious change of lifestyle. It's not healthy for your mind.
|Jim asked the Junk Kook for his thoughts on the economy
|I'll get by just fine without your plastic bread bag, Bill
But let's be honest here: The scary world you describe is not going to happen in our lifetime. We don't live in Sudan, we live in America. Among other things, we have police, military, business, and multiple layers of government filled with fellow citizens who have a vested interest in keeping everything under control. The doom-speakers and fear-mongers like Jim Bakker know this too. That's why they take cold hard cash as payment for their products and speaking engagements. They prey on dimwits who've been watching too many scary movies.

A spokesman said the device was made up of a plastic pipe and a crude metal tank that used compressed air from the engine of an old car.
The apparatus fired cylinders packed with drugs that weighed as much as 30lbs, police said.
It was confiscated last week after US officers told Mexican police that they had been confiscating a large number of drug packages that appeared to have been fired over the border.
Mexican police on the border have recovered a series of similar devices in recent years.

Internet Maps
The Dimes Project provides several excellent data sets that describe the structure of the Internet. Using their most recent data at the time (Feb 2007 - email me for 2011 versions), I created a set of visualizations that display how cities across the globe are interconnected (by router configuration and not physical backbone). In total, there are 89,344 connections.
The first rendering displays the relative densities of Internet connectivity across the globe. The stronger the contrast, the more connectivity there is. It is immediately obvious, for example, that North America and Europe are considerably more connected than Africa or South America. However, it is important to note that this only reflects density of connections, and not usage - hundreds of people may utilize a single connection in an internet cafe, often the only form of connectivity people have access to in developing nations.
Additionally, three graphs were created that display how the net is connected. I should note this is not the first time graphs like this have been created - I've seen several variations, most being practical in nature (e.g. cable locations, bandwidth). I decided to pursue an aesthetic approach - one more visually intriguing and interesting to explore than useful. The intensity of edge contrast reflects the number of connections between the two points. No country borders or geographic features are shown - the only thing you see is the data. However, it should be fairly easy to orient yourself.
Note: These visualizations use a cylindrical equidistant projection. Point latitudes and longitudes were rounded to the nearest whole number and used in a flat coordinate system. This means that the planetary surface area represented by each point varies, skewing density data (both point and edge)!
Very high resolution versions have been provided for more detailed examination or print purposes. If you do decide to print, please let me know. I'd love to see a photograph of it in your home or office.

We recommend not using the following oils at all.
Methods of Application
The most effective way to dilute essential oils is in a carrier oil. A carrier can be any high-quality vegetable oil, such as almond, apricot, hazelnut, olive, grapeseed or sesame.
A safe and effective dilution for most aromatherapy applications is 2 percent, which translates to 2 drops of essential oil per 100 drops of carrier oil. There is no need to go beyond a 3-percent dilution for any purpose. In aromatherapy, more is not better; in fact, "more" may cause adverse reactions. Some oils, such as lavender, are sedating in low dilutions and stimulating in high dilutions. A 1-percent dilution should be used on children, pregnant women, the elderly and those with health concerns.
You can create a safe and effective remedy with just one, two or three oils. When combining essential oils in a therapeutic blend, it is best for beginners to keep it simple, using no more than five oils at a time. Using more than five may lead to unpredictable results because of the complex chemistry created by the combination of all the oils.
We are often asked, "How big is a drop?" This is a very good question, because the size of a drop varies depending on the size of the dropper opening, as well as on the temperature and the viscosity (thickness) of the essential oil. A drugstore dropper will probably be accurate enough for your purposes.
Some people find it easier to use drops; others prefer measuring their essential oils by the teaspoon. Teaspoons are usually more convenient when preparing large quantities. Whatever your preference, use the chart on the following page as a general guideline. We've rounded off the measurements for your convenience. The ratios of drops to teaspoon were calculated using water, which has a medium viscosity compared with the range of viscosities found in essential oils.
Storage and Shelf Life
Store essential oils away from heat and light to preserve their freshness and potency. When stored properly, they have a shelf life of several years. The citrus oils have the shortest shelf life of all essential oils and are best used within one year. The longest-lasting oils, which improve as they age, tend to be the thick resins such as frankincense and myrrh, woods such as sandalwood, roots like vetiver, as well as other oils, including spikenard and patchouli.

The road to nuclear jihad
December 08, 2005
If there is one country in the world which has been systematically violating with impunity all nuclear and missile proliferation regulations and from which there is a real danger of leakage of weapons of mass destruction and related technologies to al Qaeda and other pan-Islamic terrorist organisations belonging to Osama bin Laden's International Islamic Front for jihad against the Crusaders and the Jewish people, that country is Pakistan.
The United States' double standards in this matter are evident from the alacrity and vigour with which it acted against Iraq despite the lack of any credible evidence against it and the care with which it protects the regime in Pakistan, despite all the evidence available against it.�
Before October 2003, no other leader of a nuclear power had made stronger statements than Pakistan President General Pervez Musharraf about the safety and security of its nuclear and missile assets.
How many statements he had made since he seized power in October 1999 that Pakistan's nuclear and missile assets were under the effective control of the army and that not even a fly could sit on them without the army knowing about it!
B Raman: No time to make overtures to Pakistan
How many statements he has made since October 2003, when Pakistan's proliferation activities in Iran, Libya and North Korea were exposed, absolving himself and the army of any responsibility in this regard and putting the blame totally on a group of about a dozen scientists headed by Abdul Qadeer Khan, the so-called father of Pakistan's atomic bomb!
This group brought in suitcases with millions of dollars in cash; bought real estate and invested millions of dollars in companies in Pakistan and abroad; travelled dozens of times every year all over Europe, Africa and Asia; carried sensitive drawings and designs abroad; invited foreign dignitaries from Iran, Libya, Saudi Arabia and North Korea to visit Pakistan's nuclear and missile establishments into which even Pakistan's elected political leaders were barred access by the army and the Inter-Services Intelligence; received foreign scientists and engineers for training in the nuclear and missile establishments; invited North Korean scientists to witness its nuclear tests of 1998; invited North Korean and Iranian scientists to witness the Ghauri (nothing but North Korea's Nodong re-baptised) missile test of 1998; and� sent to Libya, Iran and North Korea uranium hexafluoride and other sensitive material by special aircraft into which they were loaded in Pakistani airports.
And, yet, Musharraf tells us that all these were rogue operations by this small group of which the Pakistan Army and the ISI had no inkling till the US and the International Atomic Energy Agency brought them to his notice.
He has even had the audacity to find fault with the US for not detecting the rogue activities of his scientists even earlier and alerting him about them.
B Raman: Jihad's new anti-US front
One is told that these scientists did it for greed. Even if one accepts for argument's sake his explanation of greed as the motive, one could understand how the scientists must have been tempted by offers of millions of dollars by oil-rich Iran and Libya. But where is the question of greed as the motive in the case of North Korea, a bankrupt State, which did not even have a few thousand dollars in its coffers with which it could bribe the scientists?
One has lost count of the number of times Musharraf has changed his prevaricating statements.
Initially, he was saying that none of the Pakistani leaders, political or military, had any knowledge of these transgressions and hence they could not be held responsible. As the international concern and furore refused to die down, he changed his stand and started hinting that the controls over the scientists weakened while the elected political leadership was in power and hence such transgressions became possible.
His repeatedly asserted contention has been that after the interception by the intelligence agencies of the US and the UK of a ship in October 2003 -- which was carrying to Libya a clandestine consignment of centrifuges for uranium enrichment manufactured at A Q Khan's instance, by a company in Malaysia, with the assistance of a Sri Lankan Muslim -- he became aware of the extensive non-proliferation activities of the A Q Khan group and immediately acted against them.
According to Musharraf, details of the clandestine travels and the proliferation network of A Q Khan came to notice during the subsequent investigation.�
Who's running nuclear Wal-Mart, asks Saran
Not many experts and analysts of the world have been convinced of the innocence of Pakistan's military in this affair.
Many of us have been pointing out that this proliferation started and continued at the instance and with the blessing of Pakistan's military leadership. I have also been pointing out in many articles that while the Pakistan's late military dictator Zia-ul-Haq, who ruled the country from 1977 to 1988, authorised the proliferation to Iran, Musharraf himself had authorised that to Libya and North Korea and was totally in the picture.
But, unfortunately, for reasons of realpolitik, the US administration chose to accept Musharraf's denials of military responsibility. It not only gave him a clean chit, but even rewarded him and his country by conferring on it the status of a Major Non-NATO Ally.
Despite Musharraf's efforts -- with the benediction of the US -- to keep his cupboard tightly shut, nuclear skeletons keep popping up here, there and everywhere much to his consternation.
The skeletons are everywhere -- if only the US wants to look at them.
The nuclear ghost of Pakistan's past doings continues to pop up from different and often unexpected quarters. On November 23,2004, the Central Intelligence Agency put on its web site edited extracts from a report on nuclear proliferation worldwide during the second half of 2003 submitted by it to the Congress. It had another bombshell for Pakistan.
The CIA report said: 'Before the reporting period, the A Q Khan network provided Iran with designs for Pakistan's older centrifuges as well as designs for more advanced and efficient models and components.'
What did the CIA mean by 'designs for more advanced and efficient models and components'? Pakistani analysts maintained it meant more advanced centrifuges.
Pak denies IAEA access to interrogate AQ Khan
But in an analytical article, The New York Times, as quoted in the Daily Times of November 27, 2004, interpreted it otherwise.
It said: 'A new report from the CIA says the arms trafficking network led by Pakistani scientist A Q Khan provided Iran's nuclear programme with significant assistance, including the designs for advanced and efficient weapons components.'
The Daily Times wrote: 'The [NYT] story is aimed at alleging that Pakistan gave a warhead design to Iran and wants to create exactly this impression. This is obvious from the reference to a closed-door speech to a private group by former CIA Director George Tenet and references to unnamed CIA officials. According to the NYT, Tenet described Mr Khan, the father of Pakistan's nuclear weapon's programme, as being at least as dangerous as Osama bin Laden because of his role in providing nuclear technology to other countries.'
Mystery shrouds top terrorist's death
As more and more disclosures emerge and as more and more inconvenient questions are asked, most analyses are coming back to the question: Could Dr Khan and a small group of scientists close to him have done this as a rogue operation without the approval and involvement of the political and military leadership of the country? Should the outside world be satisfied with Musharraf's contention that Khan had been thoroughly interrogated and that all the information given by him has been shared with others and that no further interrogation is needed? Definitely not by outsiders, Musharraf says.
Should the world be satisfied with Musharraf's assurance that it was a rogue operation by a small group of greedy scientists and that there is nothing more to be learnt?
One thing stands out clearly from the recent developments -- the entire truth has not come out. Only part of the story, as given out by Musharraf, has come out.
Is it not necessary for the safety of the lives of billions of innocent civilians, who face the threat of a possible use of weapons of mass destruction by jihadi terrorists, to find out the truth?
There is only one man in Pakistan who has the entire picture right from the day the late Zulfiquar Ali Bhutto launched a clandestine project for acquiring military nuclear capability in the 1970s, and made Khan -- then a young scientist working in Holland -- in charge of it.
Since then, scientists have come and scientists have gone, but Khan remained a constant, shining star in Pakistan's nuclear firmament. Leaders have come and leaders have gone, but Khan continued undisturbed as Pakistan's nuclear czar and became the blue-eyed boy of all leaders -- political or military, to whichever side of the political spectrum they belonged.
Without having him interrogated by an independent outside panel, the truth will never be known.
In a report from Washington carried on March 3, the Dawn of Karachi quoted a report of the Washington-based Institute for Science and International Security as saying as follows: 'In addition to money, Qadeer [A Q Khan] was also motivated by pan-Islamism and hostility to Western controls on nuclear technology.'
Till now, the focus of the investigation by the US and the IAEA has been on Khan's role in creating and running a Nuclear Wal-Mart for state aspirants to military nuclear power such as Libya, Iran and North Korea. How about non-State aspirants such as bin Laden's al Qaeda whose pan-Islamic ideology he shares?
In my past articles, I had referred to the suspected penetration of Islamic fundamentalist and jihadi terrorist elements into Pakistan's nuclear and missile communities. I had also drawn attention to reports carried by the Pakistani media on the annual conventions of the Lashkar-e-Taiba at Muridke near Lahore. These reports had referred to the presence of unnamed Pakistani scientists at these conventions. The LET is a member of bin Laden's International Islamic Front.
There is a greater danger of al Qaeda and other jihadi terrorists getting hold of nuclear and radiological weapons/materials from the supporters of their pan-Islamic ideologies in Pakistan's scientific community -- such as A Q Khan -- than from any other quarter.
Unless A Q Khan is interrogated outside Pakistani territory by a group of international experts not connected with Pakistan, the international community will never be able to establish the progress made by the terrorists in their efforts to acquire WMD weapons/materials.
If the international community is to prevent or pre-empt the use of nuclear or radiological weapons by the terrorists, it is of the utmost importance for the UN Security Council to force Pakistan to hand over A Q Khan to an outside agency for a thorough interrogation.
