Here is what I call one cool looking dragon creation. I have been doing a series of dragons in the image of our favorite Pokemon characters. So far I have done a dragon Mew, dragon Pikachu, and dragon Bulbasaur. Today I will be showing you a quick and easy way to learn "how to draw dragon Squirtle", step by step. We will once again create a new unique way to pay homage to our favorite figures from our favorite series. Squirtle looks absolutely great as a dragon. His hair or frills remind me of water tubes in the form of chunky or Dreadlock strands. Just by looking at this version of Squirtle I'm sure you will enjoy all that this lesson has to offer. There is no more I can say because this is just a concept creation. I did have fun drawing a Squirtle dragon, and I know you will too. Adios people, and happy drawing!

STERLING — Ayres and Campbell Elementary Principals Jim Jeffres and Dennis Klein say eliminating the Teacher on Special Assignment (TOSA) is not an option. They spoke to the RE-1 Valley Board of Education about the importance of the positions during a special meeting Monday.
One of the budget considerations that's been raised by community members is the possibility of eliminating TOSA positions to save money. Superintendent Betty Summers explained the current two TOSA teachers, also known as dean of students, cost about $47,187 each this year with their salary and benefits.
In addition to the two deans of students, there is a federal programs coordinator, a grant writer paid on a teacher's rate. Plus, Rece Herboldsheimer, a teacher at Caliche Elementary, who is retiring at the end of the year, is considered a TOSA because she also helps with the district's induction program and paperwork for concurrent enrollment.
The TOSA positions were added a couple years back. Klein had been serving as assistant principal for both Ayres and Campbell and they found that wasn't working.
"You could not address the needs of the students in the building with a person traveling back and forth between two buildings," Summers said.
Jeffres said the TOSA at Ayres, Chanda Fleckenstein is "pretty critical" to the school. She teaches language arts lessons, handles a lot of the discipline issues, does all the paraprofessional educator evaluations, helps with hiring paras and proctors NWEA assessments. Fleckenstein is also the head of the school's Positive Behavioral Interventions and Support Committee, does all the scheduling for the building, does morning duty, is integral to the safety plan and keeps the website updated.
"She stays busy all the time; there's never any down time for her," Jeffres said. "I thought about it. If we didn't have that position over there, how effective could I be at what I do? There's just going to be a lot of things that just won't get done."
He pointed out that Ayres has about the same number of students as Sterling Middle School, which has two administrators.
Campbell's TOSA, Mark Collard, who was recently selected K-12 principal next year for Peetz School District, handles attendance issues, level 1 and 2 discipline issues including bus referrals, and technology issues.
"It's just a lot of working with a lot of kids, working with teachers, working with parents, educating kids," Klein said. "Imagine 420 (kids) coming to your house tonight — you'd rather have two people there instead of one, trying to help lead this bunch."
He noted that years ago there were four elementary principals; now they only have two plus the TOSA positions, and they don't have any counselors.
"Our kids have very high needs, even from just three years ago," Klein said. "When I went from Ayres to Campbell it was very frustrating for the three of us (principals). It was a model that did not work, because some things do not wait for that person to come over."
If the TOSA positions were eliminated "there's just some things that are not going to get done and it's going to affect the classroom," he said.
Summers noted with all teachers now needing to be evaluated every year, the principals' work load has gotten bigger, which is part of the reason the TOSA positions are so important. Plus, while the teachers on special assignment don't evaluate other teachers, they help extensively with classified staff evaluations.
Another budget suggestion has been to look at concurrent enrollment. Right now, the district pays for students to take up to 16 concurrent enrollment credits a year; the board is considering reducing that number. Summers said the law doesn't tell district how many credits they must pay for.
"The benefit for some of our students is when they the district they may not have an AA degree, but they can come close to having 30 hours or their first year of college taken care of," she said.
Previously, students paid for the classes upfront and the district reimbursed them at the end of the year. Now students don't have to pay unless they take more than 16 credits or they don't pass the class, which has lead to more students are taking classes.
There has also been a change with both Sterling and Caliche High School offering remedial courses on campus.
Summers said there were 164 students enrolled in concurrent classes first semester. However that number includes some students who were counted more than once, because they took more than one class. The tuition bill the district paid was $71,709 and NJC reimbursed the district $32,951.20, so the cost for the district was $38,758.
This semester there are 120 students enrolled. The bill to the district will be $71,596, the reimbursement is $35,522 and the cost to the district is $36,000.
During a workshop before the special meeting, the board met with District Accountability Advisory Committee members to discuss the recommendations they gave at a previous board meeting, regarding budget considerations and communication.
Members from the budget subcommittee, Michelle Kaiser and Tami Patten, stressed that the district needs to do something to address the declining enrollment.
They encouraged the board to look at hiring a marketing person. When the board pointed out that would take money, they suggested the board look at how much it might save the district if it helps keep students in RE-1 and attracts new students.
Communication subcommittee members Klein, Deb Lauer and Anne Owens said for the board to have respect in the community, people need to know who they are. There were suggestions to visit schools periodically and talk with different community groups about what's going on.
At the end of the discussion the DAAC members asked the board to consider having them look at the district's mission and vision statements as one of their charges next school year, because they feel they could be improved.
The board asked the DAAC to think about any other charges they might like to take on.
In other business, revisions to policy JS, regarding student use of the Internet and electronic communications, and exhibit JS-E, a student network and Internet use/acceptable use policy authorization form, were approved on first reading
The board also accepted the retirement of Candy McNear, occupational therapist with special education services, effective May 22.

There's a beer/wine shop that's opened up a year or two ago that's run by a very nice guy who's really into beer. We went in today and he pointed us at this imperial porter from Jordan. It's quite good, and something I don't think I'd ever have the chance to try if it weren't for this shop.
I bought a couple of cans of Brio (Chinotto) Vodka Cooler. Not sure when I'll get around to drinking them. Chinotto is the only sugar-water I can't quite totally give up. If I can get it I prefer non-Canadian Brio to Canadian. And actually San Pelligrino Chinotto tops them both.
The Brio Vodka Cooler is distinctly lacking in distinctive Brio (Chinotto) flavour.
I just made myself a pretty decent bloodymary to keep me company while i do the statistics.
The Glenlivet is heavily marketing their "Founders Reserve". An unspecified maturity. What does it mean? Stuff we found in various cellars which we'd forgotten to properly recask? Web searches pan it as extremely inconsistent.
But I couldn't resist buying a beer-bottle sized bottle. Mine was surprisingly smooth and uncomplex for Scotch.
I also had a Wychwood Bah Humbug! Christmas Cheer! Ale. Appeared a little early. I think the stock may have been left over from last year.
It was flavourful, but subtle. A little like Christmas pudding, but not too much so.

Ok so putting together mono Piranas, my thinking:
The non- negotiables are
Taljion (he's the reason to make mono)
Ulrich (he is the only DR and a good one)
Sting (I just can't do without her! seriously, she just owns some matchups. I'd rather take her over Dahlia)
The next 2 obvious are:
Which totals 22*s. Which is tricky because it's not at all obvious which is the next choice at 3*...
Do I take a 3*, Hawkins, or Spycee?
If I take Hawkins/ Spycee:
Do I upgrade Scubb to Dahlia? Dahlia IS an upgrade over Scubb right?
Or do I take Spycee AND Hawkins to upgrade Smokey, Tyd or Ulrich to Dahlia?
What is the next 3*, is it Deadeye, Aktara, Redd or Andsom?
Deck Core 12*:
Tajlon ***
Tula **
Sting ****
Tyd ***
Ulrich ***
Dahlia *****
Smokey ***
Spycee/ Hawkins **
Scubb ****
Dahlia *****
Hawkins **
Scubb ****
Ulrich ***
Smokey ***
Andsom/ Deadeye/ Redd ***
Another way of looking at it, who to leave off the ship:
A) Scubb
B) Smokey AND Ulrich
C) Dahlia
The other question is:
After Tajlon, Tyd, Smokey and Ulrich, are any of the other 3*s (Andsom, Redd, Deadeye, Aktara) worth taking over Hawkins or Spycee?
SadisticCynic Hero Saturday 19/06/2010, 17:37
To answer your last question: no... it's not, and actually, hawkins IS the only way to go if you've got him... he's actually one of the non-negotiables... unless you can't afford him, in which case you'll be likely to use hawkins noel...
and... honestly, i don't believe in the power of a single sting, and i think neither does everyone else, dalhia/selma over sting is the best thing this deck can get to... but there's a 2nd best and that is to make ulrich or taljion into kristin, but honestly, that deck isn't any better than a 24* one with all the above and hawkins...
BTW: you're very wrong about taljion being the reason to make mono... scubb was intially the only reason why someone would want to make mono piranas, taljion is more of a support card to help strengthen mono. dalhia ISN'T an upgraded scubb, so you taking out scubb with dalhia is kinda gonna ruin the point of the mono deck
wasteroftime Titan Open Casket Saturday 19/06/2010, 17:59
all of the above are pretty much staple...
KitsuneKatsumi Imperator XiongDang Saturday 19/06/2010, 18:20
I AM a fan of Scubb but currently it's hard to fit both him and Dahlia in without making a ton of sacrifices.
A few questions:
So you wouldn't Dalhia over Scubb if there's only room for 1 and the *s don't matter?
Would you take Scubb over Smokey if the *s don't matter?
Hawkins is the 8th man on the boat. To me he is just a huge downgrade from Smokey and while Spycee is such a weak card is the deck's only SOA option worse than the deck's 3rd or 4th worst pill manipulation option?
Finally, Kristin is nowhere near Sting's league. I've tried both, even in the same deck, and it's not even close. Sting is invaluable, Kristin is a constant disappointment.
Kristin doesn't have enough of a power advantage to win easily. If she wins it's going to be a huge pill war and then it isn't worth it because she doesn't do enough damage to KO even with fury, and she doesn't give you back any pills. Even ignoring *s I would take Smokey over Kristin. I can pill Smokey for 8+ because he's going to give me 3 back and Kristin isn't like that.
Even when she is a full stop:
Kristin has a slight advantage pill for pill against 6/6 4*s.
She's completely pill for pill against 4* 7/5s.
She's at pill disadvantage against 8/x 3*s, 8/x 4*s, 7x 3*s and most ELO played 5*s.
I practically always ended up using her SOA defensively, which was useful but Spycee would do the same thing easier.
It's really, really hard to trigger Confidence when her SOA and damge are both useful.
MeetZackBlack Hero Saturday 19/06/2010, 18:37
Sting could be replaced with Dahlia then Hawkins as the next card.
KitsuneKatsumi Imperator XiongDang Saturday 19/06/2010, 18:49
Just looking at the 4 top pill manipulators, if you completely disregard the * count, would you rank them:
Dalhia > Smokey > Scubb > Hawkins
Which makes Scubb the 3rd pill manipulation option and Hawkins the 4th...
Another way of looking at it is my ideal boat is weighing in too heavy at 27*s so someone has to go, and... push comes to shove, Scubb, Smokey, Ulrich or Dahlia are getting off before Sting is.
Taljion * * *
Scubb * * * *
Tyd * * *
Tula * *
Sting * * * *
Ulrich * * *
Smokey * * *
Dahlia * * * * *

Herbert Breunung's The Pearl Metaphor has been at the top for days. Did he manage to break it just by writing a post with a future date?
What Is Going On With Ironman Perl?
October 28, 2010 by Jared

Well, since you ask, the code does assume that we're all honest and nice people and that we'll use good tags and the correct date…so, yes, he did get to the top I believe by setting a future date. there is an upcoming code-blitz as part of the North West England hackathon – see: http://northwestengland.pm.org/meetings/023.html and http://mdk.per.ly/2010/09/07/nwe-pm-this-years-hack-day/ – so if you drop into northwestengland.pm on irc.perl.org and let mdk/mst/idn/acid2 or ocharles know as well then we have covered all bases :).
Though telling people to use the correct date might also work 🙂
Really. I don't think he was dishonest. He made a mistake that happened to break the assumptions of Ironman. We already saw a couple of people taking over the entire front page of Ironman several times by updating the date of all their posts to 'now'.
For example this happened to MST several timea due to some bug in his blog engine or rss feed generator which I think has been fixed since then.

An apparently lovesick San Diego teen has become a YouTube hit after making a plea to become country singer Taylor Swift's Romeo.
In an attempt to get her attention and score a date with the young country star he recorded his own version of her hit song, "Love Story" and placed the video on YouTube.
The young troubadour's logic: "If you guys out there watch it over and over again, tell your friends, do all that kind of stuff, it will get enough hits to get higher and higher in the search bar," Walton says in the video.
"So next time Taylor Swift searches herself, my face will pop up."
In this day and age, it probably beats crawling up on her balcony announced.
Walton is a musician and says he has released two self-produced CDs, recently performed at the San Diego House of Blues, and composed the soundtrack for an award-winning, student documentary called We Must Remember.
"I'm just an eighteen-year-old from a beach town who dreams big and works hard, I love what I do," Walton said. "But I'm missing the right girl to share it all with."
The teenager says he's a good kid and feels like he has a lot in common with Swift.
"Aside from the fact that Taylor's incredibly beautiful, I admire the person she is. She seems to be a genuinely nice girl who cares about the people around her. She doesn't drink, doesn't do drugs, and she's one of the hardest workers in the music industry," he said.
So far the video has got more than 38,000 page views and a lot of support from fans cheering him on. Click on the video below to help Walton in his quest for love.

HONG KONG (Reuters) - Alibaba Group Holding Ltd is considering a shareholding structure that would allow its founders and senior management to retain control over the board after the Chinese e-commerce firm goes public, people familiar with the matter said on Friday.
Alibaba is widely expected to launch an initial public offering, estimated to raise $15 billion, by the end of the year, with Hong Kong tipped as the likely venue.
Hong Kong stock exchange authorities, however, tend to favor listings that give all shareholders an equal say over a company while Alibaba's partners are keen to retain control over the board, which would keep them in charge of decision-making to ensure the company's long-term growth.
The company is now trying to reach a compromise by proposing changes to its shareholding structure, the sources said, as the Hong Kong exchange has in the past allowed companies to list after they have added special clauses to their articles of association.
Alibaba declined to comment for this story and the sources declined to be identified because of the confidentiality of the discussions.
Alibaba's platforms handle more goods in a year than EBay Inc and Amazon.com Inc combined and the company has yet to publicly confirm that it will hold an IPO.
Media reports last week said Alibaba could seek a dual class share structure, which favor a company's management and founders over individual investors but the Hong Kong exchange authorities have in the past rejected such listings.
Alibaba could list in New York, where shareholding structures are more flexible, but the sources said the company was more likely to pick Hong because of its previous experience in dealing with the regulators after the IPO of its Alibaba.com unit in 2007.
U.S. exchanges also require companies to adhere to more onerous disclosure rules, lawyers said.
Alibaba's discussions with the Hong Kong stock exchange have been going on for several weeks and have delayed the naming of the IPO's underwriters and filing of its prospectus, the sources said.
Alibaba's partners include founder and Chairman Jack Ma, former Chief Financial Officer and co-founder Joe Tsai, its current Chief Executive Jonathan Lu and other senior managers.
Ma and Tsai own a combined 10 percent stake of Alibaba while Japanese Internet and telecoms group Softbank Corp is the biggest shareholder with a 35 percent stake. U.S. tech company Yahoo Inc. owns a 24 percent stake.
Some Hong Kong-based lawyers said Ma could retain control over the board through Softbank, especially as he enjoys a close relationship with Softbank's CEO Masayoshi Son.
"But the question is whether Softbank is willing to be reliant on the way Jack Ma votes," one lawyer said.
A Softbank spokesman declined to comment.
The Hong Kong stock exchange has turned down requests for exemptions to its listing rules from several companies including British football club Manchester United, which last year opted for a New York IPO.
But, in 2004, the exchange allowed Semiconductor Manufacturing International Co to list after it amended its article of association. The board of directors was allowed to issue up to 5 billion preference shares that had greater voting rights.

The state Thruway Authority on Monday pulled a much-debated plan to raise highway tolls...
The state Thruway Authority on Monday pulled a much-debated plan to raise highway tolls on trucks and other commercial traffic.
Executive Director Thomas Madison said the authority will make changes to its own budget in order to eliminate the need for the roughly $85 million the toll hike would have raised annually.
"Today, I will present the Board of Directors a new cost-saving plan that will not include a toll hike," Madison said Monday.
Part of the new plan involves shifting some of the authority's costs to the state. In order to avoid the increase, the Thruway Authority will no longer provide $60 million annually to the State Police, which was used as reimbursement for troopers patrolling the superhighway.
The board will vote on the plan Monday afternoon, Madison said.
In May, the state Thruway Authority first proposed a 45 percent toll hike on all vehicles with three or more axles.
The plan was met with immediate and forceful pushback from trucking organizations, business groups and some legislators, who criticized the authority for pursuing the increase as the state tries to improve its oft-criticized business climate.
The Thruway's board then scheduled and subsequently canceled three separate meetings in September and October, when it was expected to vote on the toll plan in some form.
"We're very pleased that the Thruway Authority has decided to stop pursuing a crippling 45 percent toll increase on commercial trucks using the highway," said Kendra Hems, executive director of the NYS Motor Truck Association. "The hike would have devastated the entire state's economy and nullified any attempts to make New York 'open for business.'"
Under the now-scuttled proposal, a five-axle truck would have paid $94.45 cash to travel from Albany to Buffalo on Interstate 90, up from the current $65.15.
Madison could not say whether toll increases would be considered in the coming years.
"We need to do everything we can and explore every option before we even consider a toll increase," Madison said.

Memcached at Facebook targets a workload dominated by reads (which are two orders of magnitude more frequent than writes). Facebook needs to support a very heavy read load, over 1 billion reads/second, and needs to insulate backend services from high read rates with very high fan-out. To this end, Facebook uses memcache as a "demand-filled look-aside cache". When a web server needs data, it first requests the value from memcache by providing a string key. If it is a cache hit, great, the read operation is served. If the item addressed by that key is not cached, the web server retrieves the data from the backend database and populates the cache with the key-value pair (for the benefit of the upcoming reads).
For write requests, the web server issues SQL statements to the database and then sends a delete request to memcache to invalidate the stale data, if any. Facebook chooses to delete cached data instead of updating it in cache because deletes are idempotent (which is a nice property to have in distributed systems). This is safe because memcache is not the authoritative source of the data and is therefore allowed to evict cached data.
In a Cluster: Reducing Latency and LoadLoading a popular page in Facebook results in fetching from memcache an average of 521 distinct items (a very high fan-out indeed), which have been distributed across the memcached servers through consistent hashing. All web servers communicate with every memcached server in a short period of time, and this all-to-all communication pattern can cause incast congestion or cause a single server to become the bottleneck for many web servers.
Memcached servers do not communicate with each other. When appropriate, Facebook embeds the complexity of the system into a stateless client rather than in the memcached servers. Client logic is provided as two components: a library that can be embedded into applications or as a standalone proxy named mcrouter. Clients use UDP and TCP to communicate with memcached servers. These client-centric optimizations reduce incast-congestion at the servers (via application-specific UDP congestion control) and reduce load on the servers (via use of lease-tokens[like cookies] by the clients). The details are in the paper.
For handling failures of memcached nodes, Facebook uses the redundancy/slack idea. While Facebook relies on an automated remediation system for dealing with node failures, this can take up to a few minutes. This duration is long enough to cause cascading failures and thus Facebook uses a redundancy/slack mechanism to further insulate backend services from failures. Facebook dedicates a small set of machines, named Gutter, to take over the responsibilities of a few failed servers. Gutter accounts for approximately 1% of the memcached servers in a cluster. When a memcached client receives no response to its get request, the client assumes the server has failed and issues the request again to a special Gutter pool. If this second request misses, the client will insert the appropriate key-value pair into the Gutter machine after querying the database.
Note that this design differs from an approach in which a client rehashes keys among the remaining memcached servers. Such an approach risks cascading failures due to non-uniform key access frequency: a single key can account for 20% of a server's requests. The server that becomes responsible for this hot key might also become overloaded. By shunting load to idle servers Facebook limits that risk. In practice, this system reduces the rate of client-visible failures by 99% and converts 10%–25% of failures into hits each day. If a memcached server fails entirely, hit rates in the gutter pool generally exceed 35% in under 4 minutes and often approach 50%. Thus when a few memcached servers are unavailable due to failure or minor network incidents, Gutter protects the backing store from a surge of traffic.
In a Region: ReplicationNaively scaling-out this memcached system does not eliminate all problems. Highly requested items will become more popular as more web servers are added to cope with increased user traffic. Incast congestion also worsens as the number of memcached servers increases. They therefore split their web and memcached servers into multiple "regions". This region architecture also allows for smaller failure domains and a tractable network configuration. In other words, Facebook trades replication of data for more independent failure domains, tractable network configuration, and a reduction of incast congestion.
Across Regions: ConsistencyWhen scaling across multiple regions, maintaining consistency between data in memcache and the persistent storage becomes the primary technical challenge. These challenges stem from a single problem: replica databases may lag behind the master database (this is a per-record master as in PNUTS). Facebook provides best-effort eventual consistency but place an emphasis on performance and availability.
Facebook designates one region to hold the master databases and the other regions to contain read-only replicas, and relies on MySQL's replication mechanism to keep replica databases up-to-date with their masters. In this design, web servers can still experience low latency when accessing either the local memcached servers or the local database replicas.
Concluding remarksHere are the lessons Facebook draws from their experience with the memcached
system. 1) Separating cache and persistent storage systems via memcached allows for independently scaling them. 2) Managing stateful components is operationally more complex than stateless ones. As a result keeping logic in a stateless client helps iterate on features and minimize disruption. 3) Finally Facebook treats the probability of reading transient stale data as a parameter to be tuned, and is willing to expose slightly stale data in exchange for insulating a backend storage service from excessive load.

The AAFP's Robert Graham Center for Policy Studies in Family Medicine and Primary Care recently published a one-page policy brief that looked at the projected impact of the Primary Care Residency Expansion program(bhpr.hrsa.gov) (PCRE) on the number and distribution of new primary care physicians.
One key finding: Federal dollars invested in family medicine residencies paid off in terms of physicians practicing primary care in areas of need.
"The findings highlight the potential impact of targeted investment in primary care residency training, with family medicine residency programs representing the highest return on investment for production of physicians working in primary care, health professional shortage areas and rural areas," wrote the authors.
The PCRE was funded by a five-year $168 million grant provided by the Health Resources and Services Administration in 2010 through the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act (ARRA). The grant was specifically intended to help address the nation's primary care shortage.
Story Highlights
- The AAFP's Robert Graham Center for Policy Studies in Family Medicine and Primary Care recently looked at the projected impact of the Primary Care Residency Expansion Program on the nation's primary care workforce.
- Family medicine residency programs represented the highest return on investment in terms of turning out primary care physicians who would likely work in health professional shortage areas or rural areas.
- Researchers suggested that future graduate medical education funding should focus on residency programs with proven track records of producing primary care physicians willing to work in areas where they most are needed.
According to the report, when the grant period ends in 2015, the program will have provided financial support to train 900 residents in family medicine, general internal medicine and general pediatrics.
The report, titled "Projected Impact of the Primary Care Residency Expansion Program Using Historical Trends in Graduate Placement," used data from the 2013 AMA Physician Masterfile and other resources to project how many of those residents would indeed practice primary care and how many would likely practice in rural America and health professional shortage areas.
- Specifically, the authors projected that
of 425 family medicine residents, 393 would practice primary care medicine, with 110 of those going to health professional shortage areas and 50 to rural areas;
- of 285 internal medicine residents, 112 would stay in primary care, with 69 practicing in shortage areas and 14 in rural America; and
- of 190 pediatric residents, 97 would practice primary care, with 39 practicing in shortage areas and 3 in rural areas.
The authors concluded that future allocation of GME dollars should take into account which residency programs show they are able to produce primary care physicians dedicated to practicing in areas where they are most needed.
In an interview with AAFP News, Robert Graham Center Research Director Stephen Petterson, Ph.D., said the center's work first and foremost addressed the strong need for more primary care physicians.
He noted that in addition to the PCRE program, the government also was experimenting with creating more teaching health centers and expanding those already in place.
"We don't know if this (the PCRE program) is the best way to increase the number of primary care physicians in the areas of the country where they are most needed, but on the surface, it appears that, if sustained, the PCRE initiative could accomplish both of those goals," said Petterson.
Noting that the PCRE was initiated through money allocated by the 2009 ARRA rather than the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act, Petterson said that regardless of the promise the program holds, "It is uncertain whether this program will survive, given current budget constraints."

Georgia May Jagger Is The New Face Of Material Girl
The new face of Madonna and Lola's label has just been revealed — and we're excited!
Mother-daughter duo, Madonna and Lola were excited to share Georgia May Jagger as the new face of their Material Girl collection, available exclusively at Macy's. The edgy, young star is the perfect girl to front the campaign! Georgia will replace former face Kelly Osbourne.
It looks like Georgia couldn't be happier, now that she was selected by the original Material Girl herself! "To be handpicked by Madonna and Lola as the new face of Material Girl is truly amazing. I've always admired Madonna's style and I'm thrilled to be working with them," she shared.
We can't wait to see the latest campaign! Do you think Georgia was a good choice?

I went to the Green Barn Market at the Wychwood Arts Barn this weekend, as I do every Saturday morning. The veggies on display are getting sparse - no more heirloom tomatoes, scarcely any parsnips, but still lots of kale, carrots, potatoes, onions, pears, the season's last gerbera daisies and ..... apples. Northern Spy, Russet, Jonagold, Honey Crisp, Ambrosia, Cortland, Empire....an abundance of apples, all with spots and blemishes and deep orchard goodness. These aren't your supermarket beauties. They have heft and weight and skins so taut that the juice flies when you take that first big bite. Yum. A perfect eating - and baking - buffet.
Of course some of those pretty pinks had to come home with me.
First on the list was my by-now old stand-by - Tarte Tatin. The apples were so huge that I ended making a regular sized one and a "mini". Experiment time - I've tried feeezing the already cooked and baked tatins. We'll see what a thaw and reheat does.
Then on to "Apple of Her Eye" Apple Pie, from the New Basics. My copy is so worn that it's held together with a large rubber band, but I refuse to buy a new copy. It would take too long to transpose the notes and scribbles beside each recipe tried (don't double the curry for the Curried Zucchini Soup!). I've chosen Northern Spies - good eating, and excellent baking. My "Julia" dough is at the ready.
Now it's just a matter of the therapeutic peeling, dicing and seasoning.
Roxanne Potvin is rocking in the background (when i put you back together, with my iron and my solder...). A little bit of cardamom instead of all cinammon. A bit of tweaking with the tender and forgiving dough. A bit of dough deco, although whether they look like the leaves they're supposed to be or just blobs, I'm not sure. A bit of a chill and then well wrapped for a deep dive in the freezer.
So how long do these things bake for when they come out of the freezer rock solid?
Apple of Her Eye Pie
adapted from The New Basics cookbook, by Julee Rosso & Sheila Lukins
Pastry - use Julia Child's fab All-Purpose Pie Dough - Pâte Brisée Fine recipe (see My Life in France post from September 20!)
8 tart apples (I used Northern Spies, but Granny Smiths will do in an out-of-season pinch. I found that 6 Spies was enough)
2 tablespoons lemon juice
4 tablespoons ( ½ stick) unsalted butter, melted
½ cup sugar
2 tablespoons cornstarch
½ teaspoon ground cinnamon
¼ teaspoon ground cardamom
1 teaspoon grated lemon zest
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 teaspoon sugar
Pinch ground cinammon
1. Prepare Julia's dough. Divide dough into two slightly uneven halves. Wrap both halves, and chill in refrigerator for two hours or overnight (can be frozen for one month as well)
2. Preheat the oven to 350 F.
3. Prepare the filling: Core, halve and peel the apples. Cut them into one inch chunks. Toss with lemon juice as you are chopping to prevent apples from turning brown. Combine chopped apples and melted butter in a large bowl. Add the remaining filling ingredients, and toss until the apples are evenly coated.
4. Roll the smaller portion of chilled dough out on a lightly floured surface to form a 12-inch circle. Transfer to a 10-inch pie plate, and press into the bottom and sides of the plate. Trim the dough, leaving a 1-inch overhang. Reserve excess dough.
5. Roll the larger portion of dough out to form a slightly larger circle.
6. Fill the pie plate with the apple mixture, mounding it slightly. Brush the edge of the bottom crust with water. Then transfer the top crust over the apples, tucking it slightly inside the rim. Trim off any excess, allowing a 1-inch overhang. Seal the edges of the crust together with a fork and crimp decoratively. Trim away any excess dough.
7. Prepare the topping: Mix together the sugar and cinnamon. Prick the top crust with a fork in several places, and cut a small vent in the centre. Brush the top lightly with water and sprinkle with the cinnamon sugar. If you like, cut out shapes, such as leaves or apples, from the dough trimmings and decorate the top crust with them.
8. Bake until the filling is bubbling and the top is golden, 1 ¼ hours.
8 portions
*Because I froze the pie, I didn't do the topping. When I bake the pie,I think I will use super crunchy big flake sugar instead.

Ray Lewis, the long-time leader of the Baltimore Ravens, will miss the remainder of the season with an arm injury -- an enormous blow to an already depleted defense that has uncharacteristically struggled this year.
The linebacker tore his right triceps during Sunday's 31-29 victory over Dallas.
Cornerback Lardarius Webb also is out for the year after ripping the ACL in his left knee in the win against the Cowboys.
U.S. & World
Ravens coach John Harbaugh confirmed Monday both are done for the year.
The 37-year-old Lewis leads Baltimore in tackles and is the voice of experience in the huddle. He's been invited to 13 Pro Bowls and is a two-time NFL defensive player of the year.
Webb, considered to be Baltimore's best cornerback, tore his right ACL as a rookie in 2009.

Instead of tracking down truant school kids, a former child-care worker was playing hooky herself, authorities said.
Stephanie Sabouni, 27, was charged Wednesday with pretending to make home visits to truants and filing fictional computer entries to cover up her alleged lies, according to the Attorney General Andrew Cuomo.
"Covering up misdeeds by faking official computer records is a serious crime and this case is even more troubling because it involves allegations that children in need were ignored," Cuomo said.
Sabouni, of Brooklyn, failed to make required home visits from 2005 to 2007 when she worked in the educational neglect unit of the city's Administration for Children's Services, Cuomo said.
She's been charged with 14 felony counts, including tampering with public records and offering a false instrument for filing.
The alleged crimes came to light when relatives of children Sabouni claimed to have visited told ACS that they had never met her, according to the city's Department of Investigation. She was supposed to visit truant kids within 48 hours of being assigned their cases, said DOI Commissioner Rose Gill Hearn.
Sabouni was hired by the city after attending John Jay College of Criminal Justice and earned a master's degree in education from Touro College in Manhattan. She denied the allegations as she was being led away in handcuffs by police.
"ACS is at fault for everything, I'm just being used," Sabouni told reporters.
Sabouni was planning to get married on June 27 and spending her honeymoon in Mexico, the New York Daily News reported.
"She is upset," her lawyer Arnold Keith told The News. "She's destroyed over these allegations."
Sabouni's Mexican honeymoon was put in jeopardy after she posted $1,500 bail and handed her passport over to authorities.

Murakami High Voltage N-Machine
Purpose: To discuss Faraday's and homo or unipolar generators (dynamos) and motors in general, and enlist volunteers to transcribe the audio from the 1988 Borderlands video of a young Dr. Lindemann and Michael (? - sorry already forgot his name and I just watched it an hour ago) that was "embedded" in Aaron's presentation. Their discoveries of how to make an AC unipolar generator, and that electrically the two connection points are a dead short, were truly groundbreaking, Peter! (And GREAT beard!)
I would like to get several people who purchased and downloaded High Voltage N-Machine to take a few minutes of that embedded video and transcribe the audio, and then we can put it all together into a PDF - maybe with some screen shots from the video... It would be great not only for preservation but as basis for the further research that Aaron has "kickstarted." Nice job, Aaron, and thanks for the great discount on this video.
Saint Nikola from 1891 Notes on a Unipolar Dynamo in The Electrical Engineer:
It is characteristic of fundamental discoveries, of great achievements of intellect, that they retain an undiminished power upon the imagination of the thinker. The memorable experiment of Faraday with a disc rotating between the two poles of a magnet, which has borne such magnificent fruit, has long passed into every-day experience; yet there are certain features about this embryo of the present dynamos and motors which even to-day appear to us striking, and are worthy of the most careful study.See:
Three years ago I posted these two videos of small Unipolar motors on Vimeo:
12 seconds
and 9 seconds:
The copper wire curved around the Neo magnet is superfluous - an abandoned brush around the circumference. Two D cells in series with positive on the circumference and negative on the axle cause the clockwise rotation seen. I don't remember if we're looking at the south pole or the north pole face of the 'magnetized thru thickness' Neo.
At about 3 seconds in the 2nd video, you can see about a 3/8" blue spark, which I believe is a clue to Aether, first because it's blue and second because there is no way that 3 volts will jump that much air.
Thanks also, Aaron for the posthumous shout out to Bruce DePalma who did some amazing work with rotating bodies. He found that Aether/Akasha/Space (and he also, correctly imho, identified it as Primordial Sound) is isotropic, and all that is necessary to "get at it" is to introduce anisotropy - oscillation - rotation - sound. Symmetry Breaking. He stated that the only limitation to how much current/power could be drawn off a Homo/Uni-polar Space power generator were the contacts.
If Gerry Vassilatos is correct - that Tesla got the Aether to flow by reducing the current to zero (or close) - and Bedini and others (Frolov) have pointed out that it can work the other way too - that we just reduce voltage to zero or near it and just use current, then these Unipolar dynamos are well suited to that, and maybe it's not necessary to raise the voltage up as you creatively did, Aaron. Amps is amps, after all.
DePalma used or at least suggested using mercury wells for the peripheral contact. Saint Nikola (Tesla) had an interesting approach - to put a conductive belt around the periphery of two magnet/discs - causing both to turn either CW or CCW and connected on the circumferences with the conductive belt.
With the shafts or axles of the two magnets electrically isolated from each other, and connected in series via the belt - he only had to connect one pole on each axle. See his 1889 patent here:
I have 2 8' and 1 6' electric baseboard heaters that I'm trying to hold off turning on until 10-1-17 or later. (Cheap Scots genes.) At 220 VAC they draw about an amp per foot and kick the electric meter to warp 1 I swear. On my free energy To Do List is to test DePalma's assertion that it's only the contact efficiency that limits how much current can be extracted directly from space, and power one of these amp eaters with a Unipolar. Amps is amps and volts don't matter. Maybe.
Tesla in his Notes mentions Scotsman George Forbes. See his Unipolar Dynamo patent here:
Reconsidering all this, I'm really excited again - especially with what Peter and Michael found thirty years ago in '87 or '88. That the current can be extracted at two points 90 degrees apart on the circumference, AND, maybe more incredibly, that the AC waveform is the same coming off 90 degrees on the shaft! I think Faraday, Forbes and Tesla would all three be impressed with this find - both the 90 degree phenomena and getting AC - making Unipolar go BI-polar.
I will close with a bit more from Tesla's NOTES:
Considered as a dynamo machine, the disc is an equally interesting object of study. In addition to its peculiarity of giving currents of one direction without the employment of commutating devices, such a machine differs from ordinary dynamos in that there is no reaction between armature and field. The armature current tends to set up a magnetization at right angles to that of the field current, but since the current is taken off uniformly from all points of the periphery, and since, to be exact, the external circuit may also be arranged perfectly symmetrical to the field magnet, no reaction can occur. This, however, is true only as long as the magnets are weakly energized, for when the magnets are more or less saturated, both magnetizations at right angles seemingly interfere with each other.Emphasis Mine.

How can I see all the recent reviews?
On of my favorite aspects of the old site was a list of seven or so of the most recent recipe reviews on the home page. It would prompt me to try recipes I would never have picked out on my own. Does this feature still exist, and if so, where is it? I have been clicking around and can't seem to find a list of recent reviews.
jkl! we are putting them on the front page in the next two weeks, they're coming!
why are the ingredients listed in paragraph format instead of by line for each ingredient? I know I will miss buying something I need b/c it isn't in list format..
I agree with outside. Why are the ingredients and cooking instructions in paragraph form? I don't remember them being listed like that. It's very confusing. Is there a way to put them back into list format?
It doesn't seem like it's back to me, it's a shame I also really liked that feature. The most recent reviews have been the same for at least a week they used to change as people posted new reviews.

Martin Brothers of Middlesex, England, made Martinware, a salt-glazed stoneware, between 1873 and 1915. Many figural jugs and vases were made by the four brothers. Of special interest are the fanciful birds, usually made with removable heads. The bird-like creatures were called "Wally Birds." Most pieces have the incised name of the artists plus the date or other information on the bottom.

Did that baby just disappear, but it's image remains in the mirror? Yikes. It actually really reminds us of some of the YouTubes that "supposedly" caught real life ghost encounters on tape, especially with the way the dog is reacting. Paranormal Activity 2 will be in theaters October 22, 2010.

Sara Waite / Sterling Journal-Advocate
Sara Waite / Sterling Journal-Advocate
STERLING — Public health takes more than the efforts of a select few experts, according to Dr. Tony Cappello, public health director for the Northeast Colorado Health Department.
"It really takes a community to support public health," he said Thursday, noting that's the reason NCHD was holding its sixth annual Public Health Shining Star awards ceremony. "This annual award is an opportunity for our department to acknowledge that public health really does involve the public. We work with so many individuals and agencies that foster and promote the health and well being of our communities and environments. This award is our chance to publicly recognize the efforts of others that champion public health and have a positive impact for our communities in northeast Colorado."
Three individuals from NCHD's six-county area were honored with the 2013 awards, including two Sterling veterinarians who have been involved in efforts to thwart the spread of rabies among area wildlife and pets.
Recipients are selected from nominations by health department staff. Dr. Mark Cochran and Dr. Bill Fredregill were nominated by Pam Lindenthal, NCHD environmental health representative, and Carmen Vandenbark, NCHD's environmental health director.
"Dr. Cochran has long been an advocate for the health and well-being of pets and their people," his nomination read. "While routinely having a high rate of rabies vaccination in his clinic, assisting NCHD with preparing rabies specimen submissions with very little notice, and cooperating with public health needs in any situation, his clinic proved their willingness and abilities to be a public health partner when retrofitting their facility to accommodate a 90-day quarantine for five unvaccinated pets involved in an incident with a rabid skunk. More recently, they once again made all the necessary changes to the enclosures in order to provide safe quarantine for seven unvaccinated pets exposed to a rabid cat. He has the uncanny ability to see the greater good of the community and overcomes many obstacles in order to provide the utmost protection to the animals, staff and families involved."
Dr. Fredregill's nomination noted his service in various capacities within the Colorado Veterinary Medical Association. "During his tenure as CVMA president, he provided a professional rural perspective while working on the development team with the state public health veterinarian and the state health department to produce the Colorado Rabies Resource Guide," it reads. "In 2012 NCHD completed a total revision of the NCHD Rabies Prevention & Control Regulations. Dr. Fredregill willingly participated during the stakeholder process, attended the large six-county stakeholder meeting and offered technical assistance to the department. He advocated for the pre-exposure human rabies vaccination for animal control officers on staff at the LCHS and made it possible for NCHD to partner with LCHS as an approved high-risk pet quarantine facility. As a standard of practice he routinely screens and submits suspected specimens for rabies testing for greater surveillance and protection of public health."
The third nominee, Kathy Anderson, was formerly a representative with the Early Periodic Screening, Diagnosis and Treatment program and is now the Eastern Plains regional coordinator for the Reach Out and Read Colorado Program. "We have experienced Kathy patiently explaining resources available to women, children and men for health and dental care, finances, safety concerns, parenting assistance, transportation resolutions and more over the phone or when approached in any number of community locations," her nominators wrote. "She has spent countless hours sharing, teaching, prodding, and brining people young and old to better awareness of what they can do for themselves with a little or sometimes with a lot of help from community services. She is knowledgeable of what it means to be rural agricultural communities and has insight into the strengths and challenges of our sizeable area and has used her voice to bring that insight to the forefront." Anderson was nominated by Cherri Peterson, NCHD's community health nurse, and Cynthia May, NCHD's WIC program coordinator.

Ross on rehab assignment, could return Friday
MILWAUKEE -- Injured outfielder Cody Ross could return as soon as Friday, when the D-backs play host to the Dodgers.
Ross, who has not played in a Major League game since March 3 after straining his left calf, is currently on a rehab assignment with Class A Visalia.
Ross is slated to play five innings in the outfield Monday, and if all goes according to plan, he would fly back to Phoenix and possibly play nine innings in an extended spring game Thursday before being activated Friday.
As they have done throughout the process, the D-backs will err on the side of caution.
"We signed him to play, so when he's ready to play and be able to make contributions on a daily basis then I think you think about bringing him back," D-backs manager Kirk Gibson said. "I don't want him to play minimal innings and then think that he's going to be able to play every day and not get hurt again."

With the passing of Paul Doty on Dec. 5 at the age of 91, the science of biological macromolecules lost one of its great pioneers. Even as he coordinated the research activities of his large laboratory of graduate students, postdoctoral fellows and visiting scientists, Doty managed to focus on his other passion, the bringing together of scientists from both sides of the Iron Curtain to assure that atomic war would not occur.
Paul Mead Doty was born June 1, 1920, in Charleston, W.V. His interest in molecular and physical sciences developed early, and after completing his undergraduate studies at Penn State College (now University) in 1941, he went on to study chemical physics at Columbia University, where he ostensibly undertook his doctorate work under Joseph E. Mayer but in fact worked on the isolation of uranium for the Manhattan Project.
It was during this period that he developed a strong friendship with classmate Bruno Zimm, which led them jointly to accept positions in 1943 under the noted polymer chemist Herman Mark at what was then the Polytechnic Institute of Brooklyn. Out of their three-year scientific partnership emerged the important method of light scattering for the determination of molecular weight and asymmetry of macromolecules based upon earlier theoretical formulations derived by Peter Debye.
With Zimm focusing on the mathematical theory and Doty on the instrumentation and experimental methodology, they characterized the size and shape of a variety of synthetic polymers in papers that are still viewed as classics of polymer chemistry (1). In 1946, Doty went to Cambridge University for a year as a Rockefeller research fellow; then he joined the chemistry department at the University of Notre Dame and a year later the chemistry department at Harvard University, where he remained for the rest of his career. After two decades at Harvard, Doty founded the department of biochemistry and molecular biology.
It was after discussions with Max Perutz during his time in Cambridge that Doty made the critical decision to apply his unique knowledge of polymer science to the investigation of biological macromolecules. Doty went on to confirm that the polypeptides that Perutz had shown by X-ray diffraction of their fibers to be -helices did exist in solution as well in the form of stiff, short-chain molecules of the same size and shape (2). At the same time, he undertook light-scattering investigations of carefully prepared DNA and shocked the Protein/Nucleic Acid Gordon Conference of 1950 by reporting that these nucleic acid molecules had molecular weights of many million and a stiffness sufficiently great that they could not possibly be single chains but rather had to be multistranded (3).
With this beginning, the Doty laboratory went on to a variety of important investigations in the protein field. These resulted in significant contributions to our understanding of the solution conditions that determine polypeptide conformation and to the development of techniques, particularly optical rotatory dispersion, for determining the -helical and β-sheet contents of various key proteins (4) (most notably myoglobin, the helical content of which was confirmed by John Kendrew's X-ray structure analysis) as well as the helical nature of the three-stranded protein collagen. And with nucleic acids, he investigated the effects of pH and especially temperature on the native properties of DNA, initiating the technique of thermal melting analysis of nucleic acid molecules and thereby contributing to an understanding of their thermodynamics and the conformational differences between duplex DNA and single-stranded RNA (5, 6).
With investigations of the conformational properties and interaction stoichiometry of polyribonucleotides of simple and complex sequence (7) and the separation of the complementary strands of DNA and then their renaturation to biologically active duplexes (8), the groundwork was laid for the complementary strand annealing that proved so critical in making gene cloning possible. In addition, the laboratory's decisive work on RNA provided the algorithm for RNA secondary structure (9) that today remains the basis for correlating RNA sequences with secondary structure prediction. This work was quickly followed by evidence intimating the existence of a class of RNA in ribosomes that hybridized uniquely to genomic DNA of the same species, but not to that of foreign species (10), what later came to be known as mRNA.
Although Doty continued to guide the scientific activities of his laboratory, he began in the late 1950s to do so at a distance because of his increasing concern with atomic disarmament issues. This new involvement, which began in 1957 when he served as chairman of the Federation of American Scientists, increased as he became more concerned about what atomic war could mean for the world. This concern led him to play a significant role in the creation of the Pugwash conferences and in other contacts with Russian scientists, sometimes at a personal level and at other times in back-channel negotiations at the behest of the U.S. government.
It was these interests as well that led Doty to take on a leadership role in the founding of the Belfer Center for Science and International Affairs, which later became a part of the John F. Kennedy School of Government at Harvard, where he influenced the training of many scientists who now hold important positions in government or academia.
Doty was a leader and a mentor to many. He was exceptionally articulate, wrote beautifully, always directed his focus on major questions and stressed the important. He was careful about experimental detail, accuracy and intellectual honesty, but he was in no way a data collector. He set a very high standard for the work done in his laboratory, inspired others and called for one's best. He rarely made an effort to teach, yet he taught by example. Ambitious as he was, he recognized the value of permitting the most talented and creative of his associates to function on their own; for such individuals, he had done enough to set the general goals, and he made them feel that there was freedom of operation in the Doty laboratory.
For most of his career, Doty was married to Helga Boedtker, his former graduate student, who did much to manage the laboratory during his nonscientific distractions. She predeceased him 10 years ago. He is survived by a son, Gordon, from his first marriage to the late Margaretta Gravatt, and three daughters with Helga: Marcia, Rebecca and Katherine.
Paul Doty maintained strong friendships with many who were associated with him. He will be sorely missed.

I was shocked and disappointed to open my son's homework folder recently and find propaganda promoting "Meatless Monday".
Once I was past the initial shock I began to reflect on what the implications are in a broader sense. Many including myself have given much lip service in the recent months/years regarding the fact that there are organizations such as the Humane Society of the United States (HSUS) and People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA) that would like to end animal agriculture.
Most of us listen but most likely are not too concerned that anything like this could happen in our neighborhood. Not in rural northeast MO. Not one of the top cow states in the nation where the majority of the population can tie their financial existence directly to agriculture. Unfortunately it is happening in these places.
Our school district was apologetic and I believe it was an oversight from those who did not know the facts or consequences. I commend them for working with us and sending home information the following week discussing the benefits of animal protein in your diet.
The fact that they were uneducated rest on the shoulders of all of us in the beef industry for not educating them by being proactive instead of reactive after the fact. The truly frightening thing is how did it come to be our school district was given the information to start with and what happens when a similar letter is sent home to children in St. Charles county? People there may not be as offended and may take to heart the false information presented to them.
I agree that anything in excess can be harmful but this can be said of water. I would like to thank all those who called and expressed their concern both to me and officials in the school district but I would also like this to be a call to action for us to be more proactive in promoting the facts behind a healthy diet.
Know the facts and promote the production efficiency that our industry displays. Take time to educate yourself so you can educate others when asked on an airplane or in the feed store. Know where/who to get the information from. I for one don't want to run from the data and science but want to stand behind it to defend what I and the people I work with everyday do to help feed the world a healthy food product.

Tips continue to pour in as investigators seek the killer of 10-year-old Jessica Ridgeway, whose body was found in an Arvada open space Oct. 10.
Members of 35 local, state and federal law enforcement agencies are involved in the case.
On Tuesday alone 289 tips flowed into a hotline set up to take information.
The number of leads that have been and continue to be investigated is 1,384.
"A massive amount of work continues. We are following up on quite a lot of leads, but there is nothing of significance so far in the case," said Westminster Police Department spokesman Trevor Materasso.
The Jefferson County Coroner's office is still seeking a cause of death for the child who disappeared from her Westminster neighborhood after she left for school on Oct. 5.
"There is a piece of the investigative team that performs autopsies, but there is other information that (coroners) do. We don't know if that is complete," said Materasso.
More than 3,000 people attended a memorial for Jessica at Faith Bible Chapel on Tuesday night.
Numerous members of law enforcement agencies attended the service. "It was a personal decision, so many of our officers and those from other agencies paid tribute to Jessica and her family," Materasso said.
He wouldn't discuss whether law enforcement personnel who were in attendance were monitoring the crowd for anyone who might appear suspicious. "We are not going to talk about what we did investigatively yesterday," he said.
Anyone with information about the case can contact (303) 658-4336 or firstname.lastname@example.com

How to Pay Bills with QuickBooks 2014
If you use QuickBooks to keep track of the bills that you owe, you don't use the Write Checks window to record the bills that you want to pay. Rather, you tell QuickBooks to display a list of these unpaid bills that you've already recorded — and then you choose which bills QuickBooks should pay and the bank account on which QuickBooks should write the check.
Follow these steps to pay bills in this manner:
1Choose the Vendors→Pay Bills command.
QuickBooks displays the Pay Bills window. You use the Pay Bills window to describe the payment that you want to make.
2Describe which bills you want to pay.
Use the Show Bills radio buttons at the top of the Pay Bills window to identify what you want to see. Select the Due On or Before radio button to show only those bills that are due on or before the specified date.
To specify the date, enter the date in the Due On or Before box. To see a list of all the bills that you have to pay, select the Show All Bills radio button.
You can use the Sort By drop-down list to select the order that QuickBooks uses for listing your bills. For example, you can sort bills by due date, discount date, vendor, and amount due.
3Select the bills that you want to pay.
To select bills that you want to pay, click the check column. (The check column is the leftmost column in the list of unpaid bills; it's headed by a check mark.) When you click the check column, QuickBooks marks the bill with a check mark. The check mark tells QuickBooks that you want to pay that bill.
To deselect a bill, click the check column again. QuickBooks removes the check mark.
4(Optional) Review a specific bill.
You can review detailed information about a specific bill by first clicking the bill to highlight it in the list and then clicking the Go to Bill button. When you do this, QuickBooks opens the Enter Bills window, displaying the bill information. To close the Enter Bills window, click the Close button.
5Set the discount.
If you click the Set Discount button, QuickBooks displays the Discount tab of the Discount and Credits dialog box. You can use the Discount tab to enter a discount amount for the bill. If you enter a discount amount for the bill, you also enter the discount account. This is the account that gets credited for the reduction — the discount — in the correct amount.
6Set the credit and click Done.
If you click the Pay Bills window's Set Credits button, QuickBooks displays the Credits tab of the Discount and Credits dialog box. The Credits tab lists any credit memos from this vendor. To apply a credit memo to the amount due to a vendor, click the Set Credits button. QuickBooks marks applied credits by placing a check mark in the marked column.
When you complete your work with the Discount and Credits dialog box, click the Done button to close the dialog box and return to the Pay Bills window.
Click the Clear button in the Discount and Credits dialog box to clear the applied credits shown on the Credits tab.
7Use the Payment Account drop-down list to select the bank account to be used for making payments.
The ending balance for the bank account shows the Account drop-down list.
8Use the Payment Method drop-down list to select the payment method.
If you want to pay your bills by check, for example, select Check. Assuming that you'll print the checks in QuickBooks, select the To Be Printed radio button; otherwise, select the Assign Check Number radio button to have QuickBooks assign the next consecutive check number.
You can also pay bills by other methods, such as by credit card and by online payment (if you're set up for online payment or online banking).
9Use the Payment Date box to record the payment date.
This entry interacts with the Payment Method entry. The payment date that you set, for example, affects when an online payment gets made. The payment date also corresponds to the date that's shown on printed checks.
10After you select the bills that you want to pay and describe how you want to pay them, click Pay Selected Bills.
QuickBooks records the payment transactions in the bank account to pay the selected bills and closes the Pay Bills window.
11Complete your task.
You still need to print any unprinted checks necessary to pay bills if you're using checks to pay the bills. You also need to transmit any online payment instructions necessary to pay the bills, if that's how you've chosen to pay the bills. If you're going to hand-write checks, you obviously need to hand-write the checks and then mail them.
In other words, all QuickBooks does at this point is record the payment transactions in the QuickBooks data file. You need to print the checks, send the online payment instructions, or hand-write the checks!
