I don't know if I have said much about this, but I am moving to a new school this year. And when I mean new, I mean, being built. I got the choice to go, and am very excited, good opportunity, great administration, new technology...blah blah.
That being said, yesterday was our official "inspection" day. We all hoped it would be completed in time, but every day that I drove by on the way to the gym, I thought, "there's no way." Maybe it was the sewer lines that hadn't been buried, or maybe it was the large piles of dirt in the front, or rather still maybe it was the parking lot that had yet to be paved and was still a dirt lot. But for some reason, it didn't pass inspection. I can't figure it out.
So... we teachers were all excited to get our keys to our classrooms early this morning because just about every other teacher in our district has their entire classroom ready by now. (we go back on the tenth, and have professional development all day every day until the kids come on the seventeenth.) We are all anxious. And we get the email that we can't yet. Nobody is allowed in until it passes inspection, and they are coming back to re-inspect on the ninth.
Great. That means that if it passes we have maybe that afternoon and the weekend to move our stuff in and prepare for school to start.
I guess this is all the excitement that comes with starting a new school, but I am a little bummed. I am going to let this be the last that I complain about it though, because I am sure that it will be alright... as long as it is ready when the kids come in on the seventeenth. Please pray.

'Stumbletree'- probably my favourite house name I have carved to date (45 x 15 cm). Entirely freehand carved from a 1 cm slab of slate. The customer had seen my work at Kilmartin Museum Shop and had commissioned me to make the sign with the addition of cup and ring markings based on those found in Kilmartin Glen in Argyll, Scotland.
Hand enamelled using professional white and copper monument enamel.

N023180 DJ MARKSMAN'S BADGE. (DJ-Schiessabzeichen)
BACKGROUND: In 1936, "Reichsjugendführer" Baldur von Schirach established a Hitler Youth Firearms School in Obermatzfeld, Thuringia, to stimulate expertise in firearm handling and to further the para-military training of the HJ. Shortly after the establishment of this School, von Schirach instituted a Marksman's badge for HJ members who had proven their proficiency with firearms, which was followed in 1938 by the establishment of a Sharpshooter's badge for the HJ and a new Marksman's badge for the DJ, with each badge having different award criteria. The Hitler Youth Marksman's badge, the first and lowest class badge, was awarded to qualifying members over the age of fourteen for proficiency in target shooting with small caliber rifles. To qualify, the accurate results of five shots fired from a unsupported prone position, five shots from a supported prone position, and five shots from an unsupported kneeling position were required. The DJ badge was awarded to members under the age of 14 with the use of air rifles instead of a regular .22 caliber rifle.
PHYSICAL DESCRIPTION: A approximately 22mm diameter, convex alloy badge, whose obverse features four concentric silver-washed rings against a black enamel background, to the center of which is affixed the single DJ sigrune, with crossed, silver-washed rifles behind it. The 9mm tall sigrune is in white enamel with a silver border. A horizontal pin-back device is crimped to a circular plate soldered to its reverse. Above the plate is embossed an RZM, "Reichszeugmeisterei" (National-material-control-office), logo and "M1/128", Eugen Schmidhäussler, Pforzheim".

Interested in making life better for people? So are we! Welcome to the Human Development & Family Studies Department website. We hope that you will learn a bit about what we do from this website, but more than that, we hope that you will see a place where you might connect and become involved!
Our department has three primary missions:
1. to educate students, our community, and others across the country about human development—how people change over time, and how important contexts, especially families, influence development;
2. to generate new knowledge about how children, adolescents, adults, and older adults develop, and how their relationships and experiences impact development;
3. to apply knowledge generated from research to improve the lives of individuals and families across the state of North Carolina and beyond.
With over 600 undergraduates and over 70 graduate students, our Department offers the following programs:
Bachelors degrees in three areas: Children, Youth and Family Development, Birth through Kindergarten Teacher Education, and Early Care and Education Birth through Kindergarten
Birth through Kindergarten Graduate programs including two Post Baccalaureate Certificates and a Masters of Education degree
Masters of Science and Doctorate of Philosophy degrees which prepare students for a range of research-oriented careers in Human Development & Family Studies
Faculty in HDFS at UNCG are top notch scholars who have funded research projects which range from our collaborative role in the National Research Center on Hispanic Children and Families, to a NICHD-funded study of obesity in very young children, to the North Carolina Rated License Assessment Project which rates the quality of child care centers in North Carolina. A hallmark of our research is that it is multi-disciplinary, collaborative and can be applied to "real world" issues. The Department's strength is enhanced by recently housing the editorships of two major family studies journals (Journal of Marriage and Family and Family Relations) as well as the Journal of Early Childhood Teacher Education. Furthermore, our Ph.D. program is the only one of its kind in the state of North Carolina, and is known nationally and internationally as one of the premier HDFS programs in the country.
Integrated within all of our scholarly and educational programs is a focus on diversity, with attention to understanding and meeting the needs of oppressed and vulnerable individuals and families. We value and actively promote an inclusive community with visible and meaningful representation of diversity in all aspects of our work.
Catherine Scott-Little, Ph.D.
Interim Department Chair, UNCG HDFS Department


text: camatteo 0 Report post Posted September 5, 2011 Dear Friends: I've at last got a site framed using PlatformPro for a non-profit I work for. I moved the navigation bar above our branding. Ideally, I'd like to have the shading of the navigation bar be one color (orangey, in the last version) when static. I have had some trouble setting the design settings so that the background page does not show through. Then I'd like the hover color to be another color (pinkish, in the last version). I really don't have any idea where to set this or where to add any code in what page or template -- in fact, I'm pretty much terrified of altering any template much unless I can have someone walk me through.

Gauntleys-Kentucky. Although this is a blending tobacco this review is based on a few neat bowls.
It's not actually that bad when smoked straight. To begin with it's very easy to pack the bowl with as it's quite delicate strands of tobacco and they're not too damp.
There is a slight smokiness to the flavour. Don't expect the kind you associate with Latakia's as it's very subdued in comparison. This flavour doesn't have very much depth to it; it's quite a simple one, almost woody.
I agree with the description on here where it says it's cool and slow burning but I don't think it's exactly 'high' in nicotine. I rate it as being more medium.
The room note hasn't got much character. Although, as this is a blending tobacco I wouldn't expect otherwise!
As I mentioned, this isn't that bad when smoked on its own but it's a little boring for any more than two stars...... two stars straight but four stars as a blending Kentucky.
Pipe Used: Peterson Baskerville
Age When Smoked: New

Tullow Oil Plc's new project off Ghana will produce its first oil early next month after more than three years of development, cementing the company's footprint in the African country.
Production of oil at TEN — also known as the Tweneboa-Enyenra-Ntomme project — will start early August, the company said in a statement Wednesday. Output should gradually increase to 80,000 barrels a day by the end of this year, it said. The Africa-focused explorer reported a net income of $30 million in the first half from a net loss of $68 million a year earlier, while net debt rose almost a third to $4.72 billion.
"The start of production from the TEN field in early August will be transformational for the group," Tullow Chief Executive Officer Aidan Heavey said in the statement. The new project will allow the company "to significantly increase our net production and begin the process of deleveraging our balance sheet."
The TEN project adds to Tullow's flagship Jubilee field, also located off Ghana. Production there dipped to 62,900 barrels a day in the first half following a technical issue on its floating production, storage and offloading vessel, or FPSO. Output from Jubilee averaged 102,600 barrels a day last year, before the issue appeared.
The start of TEN comes after oil prices fell by more than half in the past two years amid an oversupply. Brent, the global benchmark, is trading at $44.77 a barrel, compared with more than $115 in June 2014. TEN is the biggest project to start up in Africa so far this year and one of the largest new developments in the world, Martin Kelly, senior analyst for Sub-Saharan Africa for Wood Mackenzie, said by e-mail Monday.
Also working on the TEN project with Tullow are Kosmos Energy Ltd. and Anadarko Petroleum Corp., each with a 17 percent interest. Ghana National Petroleum Corp. has a 15 percent stake and South Africa's PetroSA holds 3.8 percent, according to Tullow's website. Tullow and its partners have spent about $4.9 billion on the development of TEN.
Last month, Tullow cut its West African production guidance for 2016 to 62,000 to 68,000 barrels a day from a previous forecast of 73,000 to 80,000. Output will be lower than expected because of the shut down to address a faulty turret on the Jubilee FPSO. The installation of a new mooring system to resolve the problem will also halt production in the first half of next year, the company said. The total for this year includes an average contribution of 11,000 barrels a day from TEN, the company said.
Shares of Tullow gained 20 percent so far this year, making it the third-best performer on the Stoxx Europe 600 Oil and Gas Index.

What to Pack for Japan & Korea
For the last month I have been very deliberate in planning what I am going to pack for Japan and Korea with the intention of being practical yet style conscious. When Ali and I went on our honeymoon exactly two years ago (we arrive in Tokyo on our second wedding anniversary) to Hong Kong, Macau and Taiwan we brought a lot of things that we didn't wear. I wore the same pair of orange Banana Republic shorts, slip-on Crocs (not fashionable at all but extremely comfortable) and two alternating white light cotton tops everyday. Ali had to buy more t-shirts while we were away because he didn't pack enough. We were comfortable but not really stylish. And I like to stylish-ish when I travel abroad but it can be really hard. Especially when the climate is different than what you are used to at home.
We will be travelling a lot, in hot/humid/rainy weather and from what I have read, lighter is better on Japanese trains and public transportation. My goal is to fit everything I need in to my carry-on suitcase. If successful, this will be the longest trip I've done with a carry-on. That being said, we are taking a larger suitcase with us for things like presents for people we will be seeing and any purchases we make. I am highly doubtful that we will bring anything big back with us though. Why? Because the only things I came back with from Hong Kong/Macau/Taiwan was a keychain and a piece of fabric. Not exciting at all. I am however thinking and dreaming about all the amazing Japanese and Korean beauty products I am going to be tempted by. If that extra suitcase gets used for anything, it will be for sheet masks, cleansers and makeup.
So what am I packing in my carry-on? A mix of old favourites and new finds purposefully picked for this trip that I know I will wear now and in to the future. Here are the new purchases that are coming along:
Last year I missed out on the first version of Lululemon's Rain for Daze Jacket. Not so this year because I have already snapped it up! It comes in black, red and a pattern that I kind find of appealing but would never actually buy. It's light, comfortable and practically stylish. I have already worn it several times.
I spotted this loafer last summer when we were in San Fransisco before going to Iran. I looked at them with dreamy eyes but put them down when I saw the price tag and added on the exchange rate to Canadian dollars. I didn't follow-up after arriving home so you can image my incredible delight to find them on super clearance at the ECCO store at Deerfoot Meadows in Calgary! They had them in white, the above blue-purple and red. The white were nice but totally impractical. I may have come home with the red and blue-purple ones… Both pairs were less than the cost of one regular priced pair.
I bought this skirt last night at the Armani Exchange at Chinook Mall. I had never gone in to the store because I find it slightly intimidating. When I walked in last night I felt like I was in a European dance club with the many, many TV screens, super reflective surfaces, low pulsing music and slightly unflattering light in the dressing rooms. That didn't stop me from spotting this seersucker midi skirt with pockets! I think that it will be perfect for sightseeing even on super hot days with a t-shirt. I have Rachel of CleverNettle to thank for a chat on Japanese fashion which is what led me to buying this skirt. She takes amazing photos and adores Japan and is a lovely writer so make sure to check out her blog!
This dress was an impulse purchase this week at Gap. I had gone to return some online purchases and spotted this dress in black on a mannequin with a brown belt wrapped around the waist. The fabric is very soft, will totally stretch out and has a slightly dipped back which will be great for the hot climate. I am also taking a brown belt that came with a Michael Kors dress that I bought earlier in the summer. The belt immediately elevates the dress. PS: This dress is 40% off right now if you receive emails from Gap!
T-shirts are tricky for me. It's so hard to find nice t-shirts. You know what I mean, right? I wear t-shirts to bed and the gym but rarely out because I don't want to look messy. This t-shirt finds the right balance between comfort and style. Unfortunately for me, a lot of other women had the same thought because there were hardly any left in the store… I ordered the black and a green in medium from online (where they were also cheaper than in store) and they have already been put in my carry-on.
Did I need another bathing suit? No. Did I own a one-piece? No. Have I heard that Japanese hot springs don't like tattoos? Yes. I have a small tattoo that could be covered with tape but do I really want to do that? Not really. When I saw this bathing suit for 60% off at The Bay I decided to go for it. I love the contrasting prints and the fit was perfect. If we go anywhere else hot this year or next, I will totally be bringing this with me because I really, really love it.

Farm War Over Sustainability
Groups Push Back on Food Claims About GMOs, Farm Practices
OMAHA (DTN) -- Farm groups defending biotechnology are making it clear they have drawn a line in the sand against companies that convert product lines to non-GMO crops in the name of "sustainability."
Spearheaded by the U.S. Farmers and Ranchers Alliance -- a group funded by farm trade associations and industry partners -- ag organizations on Thursday announced a "straight talk" campaign to engage food companies about biotechnology and practices that should define sustainable agriculture. Farm groups also made it clear they intend to publicly call out food companies that criticize food produced with genetically modified organisms.
Farm groups have been trying for years to reverse the conversation and angst about biotechnology from at least some consumers. Yet food companies have increasingly opted to tap into that consumer ignorance on GMOs -- and avoid a future federal GMO disclosure law -- by reformulating products and promoting the brand as non-GMO. General Mills did so with Cheerios, as Hershey's has done with its candy by switching from sugar beets to cane sugar.
But the straw that broke the dairy cow's back was a decision by Dannon to commit to sourcing only non-GMO feed for dairy cattle producing milk for three specific yogurt product lines. Dannon took the idea this summer and rolled it into a sustainability pledge for consumers.
"This was a tipping point in our opinion," said Missouri dairy farmer Randy Mooney, chairman of the National Milk Producers Federation.
The risk, Mooney said, goes way beyond a single yogurt company reformulating its products. When one company in an industry such as dairy is successful with a marketing trend, then it creates a chain reaction in the industry. Mooney said that could lead to sweeping demand from dairy processors to source their milk from cows eating only non-GMO feed.
"There is nothing different in the milk from non-GMO feed to regular feed. There's no difference," Mooney said. "But what we have seen in the dairy industry over the past several years is if one marketer does it, another marketer thinks it has got to do it and another marketer thinks they have got to do it." Mooney fears this will create a domino effect through the entrie food supply. " So this is a tipping point."
The farm organizations find themselves criticizing a food-industry push to increase profits by marketing non-GMO products. Further, those companies such as Dannon are offering premiums to farmers willing to grow non-GMO crops or sell milk from cows fed diets of non-GMO feed.
Dannon has acknowledged the safety of GMOs, but Mooney said the company continues to imply in a sustainability pledge that GMOs are undesirable. Mooney also said the push by companies such as Dannon will only drive up prices for consumers.
"When you look at the product that Dannon is putting on the shelf, there's absolutely zero difference in the product that they claim to put on the shelf and the product they are putting out today," Mooney said. "There are only two differences: One is the writing on the carton and the other is the price."
Marty Matlock, a professor of ecological engineering at the University of Arkansas, stressed that multiple industry groups across the food supply chain have embraced biotechnology as a tool for sustainable agricultural improvement. Matlock cited industry statistics on reduction of soil erosion across the industry and reduced carbon footprint per acre for soybean production. Such industry statistics can be found in reports from groups such as Field to Market. "We don't say we are sustainable," he said. "We say we are becoming more sustainable using better processes and practices and using every tool in our toolbox."
Nancy Kavazanjian, a Wisconsin farmer who chairs the U.S. Farmers and Ranchers Alliance, said modern breeding technology has allowed farmers to better deal with pests and weeds. These practices lead to farmers using fewer inputs per acre, she said. Kavazanjian said farm groups recognize sustainability is getting greater emphasis in the food supply chain. With that in mind, food companies and export customers need to understand how farmers use biotechnology to implement sustainable practices, she said.
"It has definitely cut our soil loss," Kavazanjian said. "We have been no-till for over 30 years. I'm very proud that we have fields that have not seen a plow in over 30 years and we are producing really top-quality yields."
Matlock also pointed out that he and Kavazanjian were speaking on Thursday's press call from France trying to help stop a major push in at least parts of Europe to ban GMO feed for livestock. "So this is an ongoing larger dialogue beyond dairy and beyond just Dannon," Matlock said.
Randy Krotz, chief executive officer for the U.S. Farmers and Ranchers Alliance, said the alliance wants to have better conversations with food companies and thus is rolling out its "straight talk" campaign. The alliance was initially formed six years ago specifically to change the dynamics of the conversation among consumers about modern farming practices and biotechnology.
At the same time, ag groups need to challenge food companies that misinform consumers about specific farm practices and what those practices mean for the environment.
"Just to reiterate, this outreach is a long-term focus for us and we really do want to have a partnership with companies, but we need to be clear that if misinformation is put out there, we will correct it," Krotz said.
Krotz also rejected the premise that food companies are converting to non-GMO products because of consumer demand. He said companies are being pressured by anti-GMO groups -- not by broad consumer opinion -- to make the switch. "We believe that major food companies in this country have great interest on where agriculture is coming from on these topics," he said.
Matlock, Kavazanjian, Krotz and Mooney also stressed the value that biotechnology brings by allowing farmers to implement no-till production. They stated biotechnology has allowed no-till production to sweep across the landscape, though no-till is used on roughly one-third of commodity acreage. Still, Matlock refuted that the groups' emphasis is on the benefits of specific practices or telling farmers how to farm.
"The approach we're taking in all of our sustainability initiatives is to ensure that our indicators are outcomes driven, not practice driven," Matlock said. "The outcomes are reducing soil erosion, reducing energy use, increasing yield, reducing water use, reducing greenhouse gas emissions, increasing habitat and biodiversity, increasing water quality. Those are the environmental outcomes. We have social and economic outcomes as well."
Several CEOs from the dairy industry reached out to Dannon's executives in recent months to try to visit about the company's direction, but Dannon's leaders were un-swayed, the farm leaders said.
Dannon, for its part, issued a statement Thursday touting its relationship with its farmer suppliers after two days of meetings this week in Kentucky. A long-time farmer working with Dannon praised the company in the news release for its work on animal welfare and the company's vision on sustainability. Dannon's CEO also stated that changing farming practices can allow the company and its farmers to reduce herbicide and pesticide use while improving soil health and water quality.
"We believe it is possible to combine non-GMO crops and sustainable agriculture building on farmers' expertise and practices, always being mindful about state-of-the-art agronomic science," said Mariano Lozano, CEO of Dannon.

How can your Algebra tutor help you?
Even students who understand standard arithmetic - addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division - may stumble when they reach algebra. The subject is where mathematics reaches a level of abstraction that takes much practice to comprehend. Your child will encounter square roots, standard form equations, and X and Y intercepts and wonder how it all applies to the world of rationality. Like all math, algebra is cumulative. Soon your student might be adding and subtracting polynomials, and working with quadratic equations. Each topic depends on a proficiency of prior ones, and learning algebra can be hard without individualized help. Varsity Tutors' educational directors in Spring Valley, NV, will find your child an algebra tutor who might help maximize their study time.
Without a teaching method that matches your child's learning style, understanding algebra can take a long time. Their tutor can streamline the process by directly assessing their weaknesses.

!! History Commons Alert, Exciting News
In the wake of anti-war demonstrations and urban rioting in several US cities, the Pentagon establishes a set of civil disturbance plans designed to put down political protests and civil unrest. Conducted under the codename Operation Garden Plot, the new program significantly increases the role of the military in training for and intervening in social uprisings. The Pentagon develops contingency plans for every city considered to have potential for uprisings by students, minorities, or labor unions. Each area of the country follows a subplan of Operation Garden Plot. Operation Cable Splicer, for instance, covers the states of California, Oregon, Washington, and Arizona (see May 1968, February 10, 1969, March 1969, and May 1970). Each region will conduct exercises and war games to practice and develop its individual plans. To oversee the operations, the Pentagon establishes the Directorate of Civil Disturbance and Planning Operations. The directorate will operate from the basement of the Pentagon in what becomes known as the "domestic war room" (see April 1968). [New Times, 11/28/1975; Salon, 3/15/2002; U.S Army, 8/18/2009]

The government establishes the Directorate of Civil Disturbance and Planning Operations within the Department of Defense. The directorate will oversee civil disturbance operations, such as Garden Plot and Cable Splicer (see Winter 1967-1968), and conduct surveillance on US citizens in search of possible security threats. The directorate is headquartered in the basement of the Pentagon in what will become known as the "domestic war room." The center utilizes a massive computer system to monitor "all public outbursts and political dissent" within the United States. New Times magazine will describe the war room as follows: "Surrounded by acetate map overlays, a fulltime staff of 180, including around-the-clock 'watch teams,' [uses] teletype machines, telephones, and radios to keep in constant communication with every National Guard headquarters and all major military installations in the continental United States." Seven Army infantry brigades totaling 21,000 troops are at the directorate's disposal. [New Times, 11/28/1975]

The Senate Subcommittee on Constitutional Rights, chaired by Senator Sam Ervin, uncovers the existence of a sophisticated computer system used by the Department of Defense to monitor US citizens suspected of "subversive" activities. The system is operated from the military's "domestic war room," overseen by the Directorate of Civil Disturbance and Planning Operations in the basement of the Pentagon (see April 1968). It is designed to keep track of "all public outbursts and political dissent" inside the United States. The Senate subcommittee uncovers a database of thousands of US citizens labeled as possible threats to national security. According to New Times magazine, the subcommittee discovers "computerized files on 18,000 of the celebrated to obscure, on people such as Senator George McGovern and former Massachusetts Gov. Francis Sargent down to ordinary citizens who had, sometimes unknowingly, become 'associated with known militant groups.'" [New Times, 11/28/1975]

The Packers loose to the Lions and those who live in the small towns of the Upper Peninsula may be distraught with grief. Loyalty to either of the teams runs high and people regularly argue and get upset with each other depending on which team they support. There are times when they may choose their social networks based on these loyalties.
Beyond the obvious advantages of revenue for the state, team owners, bars and restaurants there are also the social connections that are formed through watching these games. As people enjoy the sport they create friendship identities that allow them to develop positive feelings and even greater loyalties.

How did I get it?:
I bought it!
Aysel and Roman are practically strangers, but they've been drawn into an unthinkable partnership. In a month's time, they plan to commit suicide – together.
Aysel knows why she wants to die: being the daughter of a murderer doesn't equal normal, well-adjusted teenager. But she can't figure out why handsome, popular Roman wants to end it all….and why he's even more determined than she is.
With the deadline getting closer, something starts to grow between Aysel and Roman – a feeling she never thought she would experience. It seems there might be something to live for, after all – but is Aysel in so deep she can't turn back?
I had heard such amazing things about My Heart and Other Black Holes. I was worried that I wasn't going to like it because of that hype monster that often rears its head.
My Heart and Other Black Holes centres around Aysel who is obsessed with plotting her own death. Her father is in jail for a crime that has shocked the town and thus alienated herself from her peers. Aysel knows she's not strong enough to commit suicide by herself, so she goes online to search for a suicide partner. She finds Roman, who is also suffering from the after effects of a family tragedy. They meet up and decide to be suicide partners. As the day looms Aysel starts to have second thoughts, but Roman seems as keen on the idea as ever.
As you might expect from a book with suicide as subject matter, this book isn't an 'easy' read. The descriptions of depression were so realistic. I really understood why Jasmine Warga used the idea of a black slug to represent depression. I liked that the book wasn't all doom and gloom though, there were lighter moments of hope which I really appreciated.
I really loved Aysel. I immediately connected with her and understood why she felt the way she did. I really appreciated that she cared about her family and the aftermath of what suicide would do to them. I also loved it when hope for the future began to creep in. The way she was feeling was captured perfectly. It was so sad, but very realistic. Roman was another great character. I could also understand why he was feeling the way he was and why he couldn't see a way through his problems. I loved the connection they found with one another.
I think Jasmine Warga dealt with this sensitive issue incredibly well. It wasn't easy to read at times, but it was incredibly well written and compelling!
Would I recommend it?:
Of course!

Spaghetti Sauce
Deb Wilson
★★★★★ 1 vote5
1 lblean ground beef (or chicken)
1 mediumonion, diced
1/2 cgreen pepper, diced
1 can(s)mushroom stems and pieces (10 oz or 284 ml)
1 can(s)diced tomatoes (28 oz or apprx. 828 ml)
1 can(s)(hunts) thick & rich original pasta sauce (23 oz or apprx 680 ml)
3 Tbspdried oregano
4 Tbspdried basil
1 clovegarlic, minced (or 1/4 tsp powder)
1 pinchsugar
1 tspsalt and pepper
1-2 tspcrushed chilies (or 1/2 tsp cayenne - optional)
1/4 cdry red wine
·hot cooked spaghetti noodles
How to Make Spaghetti Sauce
- In large pot, fry beef, onion and green pepper until meat is no longer pink. Drain fat.
(I dump mine into my spaghetti drainer and run some hot water over it to get rid of most of the fat). Add remaining ingredients, except noodles; bring to a boil, reduce heat, cover and simmer 2-3 hours. Or, once you are ready to reduce the heat and simmer, you can transfer the sauce to your slow cooker and leave on low all day until it's time to serve. Serve over hot cooked noodles, topped with grated Parmesan cheese and with some cheesy garlic toast.
- How Much Pasta Should I Cook?
If you will be serving pasta as a main course with maybe a salad and some crusty bread, use 4 ounces of pasta per person. In other words, a one-pound box of dried pasta will serve four as a main course. If the pasta will be a side dish to a protein (as in Chicken Parmesan), allow only 2 ounces of pasta per person.
- How to properly cook pasta:
To cook one pound of dried pasta, bring 4 liters of water to a rolling boil. Once the water is boiling, add about a teaspoon of salt. Don't add the salt until the water is boiling, or the salt could pit your pot. Add the pasta all at once, bending long pasta into the water as the boiling water starts to soften it. Once the water has come back to a boil, turn the heat down a bit to prevent boiling over. Cooking about 7-8 minutes is plenty of time. If you use sufficient water there is no need to add oil to the water - that only adds unwanted calories. Also you should not rinse the pasta after it's cooked unless making it for a pasta salad, in which case you would rinse it in cold water.

Small businesses would be harmed by change in energy rates
(page 1 of 2)
The business imperative to "decarbonize" was the topic at a timely forum held by Wisconsin Business Alliance, hosted by CUNA Mutual, and attended by over 60 local businesses last week. Walmart and other large retailers now require their suppliers to report their carbon output, and carbon accounting is becoming a reality for businesses that want to compete in the global marketplace.
"Carbon reduction is a leading performance indicator of efficiency and is also a strategy to retain customers, reduce risk, and spur innovation," said Tom Eggert, executive director of the Wisconsin Sustainable Business Council, at the Carbon 101 event.
But if businesses are served by utilities addicted to coal, they'll be at a competitive disadvantage. Facebook, Microsoft, and Google recently made low-carbon electricity sources a key factor in locating data centers in Iowa. Iowa produces 28.8% of its energy from renewables, while Wisconsin stands at only 6.8%.
MGE commits to coal while penalizing efficiency and renewables
After looking into MGE's public filings, a group of local energy experts has concluded that MGE's commitment to coal is projected to last decades. MGE's ownership shares in coal plants supply a full 70% of electricity to the Madison market. These plants have been plagued with massive cost overruns, resulting in over $1 billion in bailouts in the form of rate hikes approved by the Public Service Commission. The filings also indicate that MGE intends to run the Columbia coal-fired plant until 2038 and the Elm Road coal-fired plant until 2050.
In our analysis, MGE has shown much less commitment to solar and wind than the public has been led to believe. From 2009 to 2013, the growth in MGE's ownership of solar- and wind-generated electricity was 5% and 0% respectively. Conversely, in the United States, total installed solar and wind capacity grew 34% and 81% during the same period. According to the Solar Electric Utilities 2013 rankings, that would rank MGE at a disappointing #110 among its utility peers.
Unfortunately, Madison Gas & Electric has proposed big changes in 2015 that reduce incentives for saving energy and using renewables. Hiking the fixed fee by 80% and modestly lowering the energy cost per unit sends a price signal to use more energy, not less. MGE, along with other Wisconsin utilities, is restricting companies' control of their energy bills and pulling the plug on technologies that can reduce overhead costs. Fifty local businesses from the Madison area have responded by signing an open letter asking MGE to withdraw its proposal.
Thank you - here is what I submitted
The proposed rate changes would harm the development of small and especially small rural businesses in the MGE service area. Increasingly small businesses are run out of homes . In my work over 20years in my Town shows about 30% of the homes hosue some type of self employment or small business. Self employment or the creation of these types of small businesses is one of the fastest growing parts of the economy. Increased utility costs would harm the very tight margins amny of these businsses operate under. It would also provide a disincentive for them to install solar and other green power systems as the cost of those systems come down.
Please reject the current rate application of MGE
This whole discourse is so typical of thought driven by ideology these days, and mostly devoid of facts or practical solutions to discuss, "full of sound and fury, signifying nothing." I am a small business, and small businesses use such small amounts of electricity, as to be insignificant among the other costs.
It is a fact that wind and solar power have so many shortcomings within the energy spectrum, that are unlikely to be overcome in an economically viable fashion. Chief among those are the intermittent nature of production requiring very very expensive storage or base load capability for when the renewable source is unavailable.
It is also a fact that advocates of renewable energy cannot get support from legislators or electricity users for scrapping the coal fired plants before the end of their economic lives, because of the tremendous cost to the ratepayers and the loss of jobs as industry either moves out of state, or fails to move into the state because of uncompetitive utility costs.
We Energies-Funded Study Says Solar Actually Helps—Not Harms—Ratepayers
Report contradicts its own claims about 'fairness'.
According to a 2009 study commissioned by We Energies and conducted by Clean Power Research, most of the savings is tied to solar users' ability to generate their own energy, their contribution to We Energies' renewable portfolio standard obligations, and their use as a hedge against future fuel price uncertainty.
The estimated value of a solar system over that system's 30-year life was approximately $0.15 per kilowatt hour, the study found.
The study surfaced in We Energies' pending rate case before the state Public Service Commission (PSC)....

The exploration of our vast universe may start with something small: a seed. Inspired by the hypothesis of panspermia – that life exists throughout the universe and is distributed by meteoroids, asteroids, comets, planetoids and even unintentionally by spacecraft – Finnish photographer Maija Tammi (1985) portrays fictional scenes of our galaxy using the elemental human substances of semen and breast milk.
Photographed up close on a living room table, the two white fluids take on the scale of the universe, both microscopically small and astronomically infinite. The scenes therefore speak to the perception of our own experience as mortals on Earth, as simultaneously insignificant and magnificent. In connecting us with the source of our conception (our father and his semen) and the source of our birth and life (our mother and her milk), Tammi's images remind us with an elegant simplicity of our connection to all humans, who share this source with us, as well as to the universe itself, which hosts all existence as we know it.

I love Grass roots democracy - petitions, protests and letter writing campaigns. People standing-up for what the believe in. Demanding change or accountability.
A lot of people have given-up on being able to change the system. "What does it matter, they are going to do what they are going to do". The you can not fight city hall attitude prevails in a society that is becoming more an more apathetic.
So imagine my surprise and delight at the opportunity to participate in a meaningful display of grassroots advocacy on the campus of Memorial University yesterday afternoon. Part of my daily routine is to walk around the campus during my afternoon break. I heard some chanting, like a beagle searching for rabbits, I instinctively moved towards the gathering at the crosswalk to the Aquaarena across from Field House.
Dozens of placard waving people had gathered to bring attention to the very real need for enhanced safety measures for pedestrians at busy crosswalks on the campus. This particular crosswalk is notorious for close calls, impatient drivers, speed and heavy vehicle/pedestrian congestion.
Over the last couple of years, I have experienced the congestion and frustration on Westerland first hand. Three times a week, normally during rush hour traffic, I would pick Aidan up from the Aquarena where he was practicing with the St. John's Legends. The confusion, heavy pedestrian and vehicular traffic made for lots of frustration. Throw in some rain or a little snow and utter chaos ensued.
I joined the energetic protest for a period of time, spoke to MUN
security who were concerned that the protesters might distract drivers
from the crosswalk and watched as the media did various interviews. The
presence of the media ensured that these concerns woudl make the evening
news and the papers. The issue would now be on the radar of City Hall
and the University.
In fact, the site was chosen for the protest because a student, Bailey Oake, was struck by a car at this location. She was seriously injured and narrowly missed becoming paralyzed. Is spoke with her for a few minutes as she related her experience and ongoing concerns about the need for better lighting, speed bumps and other safety enhancements.
I wish more people would act with their pens, feet and voices to challenge the status quo.
The power is always in our hands.

Earth Day is Every Day
Unity in the Seven Hills, 22 April 2018
SONG (Bob Sima): (w)hole in the World, from Believe the Bird
Pachamama will survive with or without humans, but we absolutely cannot survive without her.
I do not know that I ever really sat and pondered the depths of that statement until I prepared myself for this talk. Even as I tickled my intellect throughout my environmental engineering studies with a passion to shift the way humans did their business to a more mindful and sustainable approach that honored Mother Earth, that statement just did not sink into the depths of me that it does today. As I have moved from an intellectual environmental passion to a spiritual shamanic practice, the connection that Bob sang about rattles my very soul. Not just the shutters from the realization of the damage that we have mindlessly and mercilessly caused to Pachamama, but also because of the absolute and undeniable beauty and power she holds in every molecule of every being that she is integral in maintaining. She does not judge. She does not favor. She simply feels and knows where to share her energy.
You see, I believe that when humans push ourselves too far into the sleepwalking mode of existence, Mother Earth shakes up our consciousness, screaming to be heard. As humanity has evolved we have learned to use the gifts of the Earth far more than we give to her in return. There is no doubt we have become disconnected from the very energy that provides all of our basic needs. Even with brilliantly intelligent and creative minds in genetic and chemical engineering, I do not believe we – as a species – could walk on the very ground of Mother Earth without some level of exchange to make our survival possible and probable. That makes humanity the underdog. Yet we, as a collective, act as if we are the favorite. A favorite to win some imaginary game we call life.
——— "She's our home, she's our mother, and we can't trade her for another
When she's got trouble, we got double
She's a force not a resource, we're the only recourse
When we take more than our share, far more than expected
Everything's affected, because everything's connected
There's more to the puzzle than our own little needs
We can't change her plans, or alter her seeds" ———
If we are the underdog, when do we start – as a collective – to learn and fully understand the cause and effect relationship with the very creature that supports and sustains us? Have you ever really tried to follow the layman's understanding of every scientific process that goes into this life cycle? I am not convinced that the human intellect could even fathom the intricacies of it all, let alone ask the next question: How does she – Mother Earth – do it?
To begin to understand, we first must be able to connect to something outside of ourselves. The symbiotic relationship that is critical in every single scientific process is also critical to our scientific process of living human life. We are our own scientific experiment. Yet we often forget the basic assumptions that create the hypothesis to quest for a theory that will govern equilibrium within the equation of life. Why do we forget? Because assumptions are based on knowing our subject well enough to define all of the variables that are necessary in the process before the experiment begins.
How do we expand from a hole to the whole? How do we stop the damage to inspire recovery? How do we release greed and find respect? How do we stop creating a hole in the world and begin creating the whole of the world? How do we reconnect to every living thing on this planet to create a harmonious and symbiotic presence around the world?
I believe the first step is to use our senses.
Stop the language and verbal communication.
Breathe and smell what is going on around you.
Reach out and touch the beauty surrounding you.
Walk and observe the activity around you.
Sit and taste the nourishment provided to you.
Close your eyes and listen to the messages that appear in your own silence.
I invite you into a meditation. Get in touch with your breath. Feel the life force moving effortlessly through your body. For the next few minutes, retrace the steps you took when you woke up this morning until the start of the present moment's experience. Retrace your movements with reverence and a heightened consciousness. When you roll out of bed, did you notice the plant on the shelf next to the bedroom window? Instead of stumbling half-asleep to the bathroom to brush your teeth, pause for 10 seconds and look out the window. What morning message is there? Is your shower simply a requirement to leave the house or is it a cleansing ceremony that can be a sacred ritual? When you ate breakfast, did you simply want to avoid embarrassing stomach grumbles or did you thank the nourishment that was put into your body, from its place of origin and all the processes that helped it arrive on your plate? If you drove somewhere, did you notice the new blooms and buds of this time of springtime awakening? Were you graced with the presence of animal medicine along your route? What messages did you receive? What messages did you miss?
SONG (Bob Sima): Trying to Speak to You, from Believe the Bird
On this celebration of Earth Day, I encourage you to choose one natural living thing and connect to it. How you choose to connect – physically or through your mind's eye – is up to you. If you are comfortable, meditate with the subject. Ask it for a message. Feel the energies that it carries. Extend a personal gesture of gratitude for its presence in your life.
Nature speaks to us all the time. Our natural cycles of life follow the sun, the moon, the planets, the tides, the sunrise, the sunset, the seasons, the weather. Are we sensitive to those energies or do we create a dissonance within our physical body because we overlook the very lessons in the harmonious cycle of living that Nature is showing us every day?
It is not by coincidence or fluke that we live where we live, that certain animals grace us with their presence, that we have an affinity for mountains or for water at different stages of life, that we plant certain flowers, that we have a certain type of tree outside our kitchen window. All of these natural messages are right in front of us. The energy that each carries is significant to itself, to Mother Earth, to our neighborhood of creatures, and to us. Do we take the time to understand why those beings are in our presence? What medicine are they providing to us? What messages are they sharing with us?
——— "There's a whole of the world, there's a whole of our hearts,
The connection so clear we wonder where do you end and where do we start
There's a star in the sky brilliantly shining hope in our eyes
And the reflection of the moon over the sea,
it's a call to the hearts and the souls of you and me
To take just a moment; take a deep breath as one
Remember some things we do can't be undone" ———
In my opinion, gratitude and appreciation are the measures of consciousness. We can't take, take, take mindlessly yet show gratitude at the same time. Gratitude requires active and mindful participation. So I ask: How do you show gratitude for the gifts that you receive from Mother Earth? How do you honor the space that she sustains for your safety and survival? How do you give back to Pachamama through action, through ceremony, through thought, through ritual, through intention? We live in a Grateful World when we take the time to be Grateful Humans. To find a state of gratitude we must put aside our desires for more, more, more. We must consider the lasting effects on personal, local, regional, national, international, and worldwide ecosystems. We must take a stand when enough is enough, when we know there are more symbiotic approaches to living.
I hope you feel a renewed appreciation for that which is in us that is within every living thing on and within this beautiful Earth home. The "All That Is" which allows us to communicate beyond language and gesture. I hope you are quick to recognize the greed and fear that drive the collective into an unbalanced and disrespectful relationship with Mother Earth. I hope you are inspired to become a consciously active and grateful human in this partnership with this planet we call Earth.
Remember: Pachamama will survive with or without humans, but we absolutely cannot survive without her.
Earth Day is Every Day.

The Arab protests has at last reached the Gulf. rally of thousands in Manama, the capital of Bahrain, was bloodily dispersed , leaving at least three people dead. Troops in tanks and armoured personnel carriers have now been deployed to key areas in Manama to prevent crowds gathering.
Bahrain won its independence from the UK in 1971 and since then, has regularly experienced civil unrest because of tensions between the Sunni elite, including the Sunni Al-Khalifa family which has ruled Bahrain since 1782, and the Shia majority, who complain they are marginalized, repressed and kept out of most jobs in the government, the security forces and the business community. There are slums around the capital Manama, which is quite unusual for the region. They are hotbeds of discontent.
While per capita GDP is relatively high in Bahrain, $40,400 (29,800 euros) according to 2010 estimates, the country, about the size of Singapore, has endured civil unrest for decades. An uprising from 1994 to 1999 demanded social and economic reforms. The conflict was defused in 1999 when Sheikh Hamad became emir and set out on a cautious course of economic reform. In 2001, voters approved a National Action Charter that would transform the country into a constitutional monarchy. The next year, Hamad declared himself king and decreed that a National Assembly be formed. He has tried to establish the trappings of democracy, but in fact, Bahrain is still an absolute monarchy.
"You basically have a system of apartheid in Bahrain," Theodore Karasik, director of research and development at the Dubai-based Institute for Near East and Gulf Military Analysis, told Deutsche Welle. "While the Sunni minority has access to the good jobs and most of the country's wealth, the Shiite majority lives in poor conditions.That's the bottom line"
Saudi Arabia, the world's biggest oil exporter, does not want to see a Shiite uprising spill over into its own eastern providence, where Shiites are also in the majority and have long demanded more fairness from the government. The eastern province is crucial to Saudi Arabia since that is where most of the country's oil is located. "If the monarchy (in Bahrain) was in danger, I think the Saudis would intervene," said Dubai-based analyst Karasik.
The United States is also concerned because Bahrain is a key ally in the highly strategic Persian Gulf region, home to more than half of the world's oil reserves, and hosts the US Navy's Fifth Fleet, the main American naval base in the Middle East.
Earlier, as Egypt erupted, Bahrain's ruling family made its first move to head off local unrest by increasing food subsidies and social welfare payments. The king also ordered a payment of 1,000 dinars (1,960 euros) to each Bahraini family. "It was packaged as a gift and a kind of royal benevolence, but of course it was just an attempt to buy popular support," Kristian Coates Ulrichsen, a research fellow at the London School of Economics and Political Science said.
It hasn't worked.

The Medicare Prescription Drug, Improvement, and Modernization Act of 2003 (MMA) added prescription drug coverage to Medicare (Medicare Part D), beginning on January 1, 2006. Medicare beneficiaries can obtain the Medicare drug benefit through two types of private plans: a stand-alone prescription drug plan (PDP) for beneficiaries in the traditional fee-for-service program or a Medicare Advantage (MA) plan, such as an HMO or PPO, that covers prescription drugs.
Data have been rounded and may not sum to total. United States totals include data for beneficiaries residing in the territories, as well as those with unknown states of residence.
