The Joplin tornado affected nearly every person in the Four-State region. A wall of crosses in the Neosho United Methodist Church Christian Life Center is a prime example of the tornado's lasting effects.
Currently, about 50 crosses are hanging on a wall in the entry way to greet visitors to the Life Center. They are made of every imaginable material. Some are small, some are large. Some are ornate and some are simply two pieces of wood attached to make a cross.
Ever since the Joplin tornado, the Life Center has housed volunteer groups who came to help Joplin recover from its disaster. One of the earliest groups to stay there was the Manchester United Methodist Church from the St. Louis area.
Their work was serious; they worked to clear damaged homes of rotting food and other things which could become health hazards. They were instructed to "toss everything," but they couldn't.
In their work, the volunteers from St. Louis discovered personal items such as family pictures and they made every attempt to save and return these items. They also saved small items from the debris such as a metal yardstick, a smashed electrical plug in, and scraps of wood. These pieces of trash were formed into a cross and given to the Life Center in Neosho. This became one of the first displays on the Wall of Crosses.
Now crosses made by groups who have stayed in the Life Center are mixed with crosses given and/or created by members of the Neosho United Methodist Church. Every cross has a story.
One cross was made by a grandfather and his grandson. One cross was made by a group from Rockwell, Texas, who stayed at the Life Center. Recently, the Texas cross was delivered by a member of the church who happened to be passing through Neosho.
One small cross was formed from two pieces of a baseball cover. Another was made from wood salvaged from the 2008 tornado that passed north of Neosho and through Newtonia.
One is made from a collection of ocean beach stones.
Sarah Chaney, pastor of the local Methodist church, explained that a Wall of Crosses is not unique to the Life Center. She said that St. Paul's Methodist Church in Joplin had a similar wall of crosses. After the tornado struck the church, the sanctuary was gone, but the wall of crosses remained.
Chaney feels the Wall of Crosses shows a "testament of faith" and that it represents all people, as every cross is different and unique.
The members of Neosho United Methodist expect the Wall of Crosses will continue to multiply, perhaps like the fishes and the loaves in the Bible. In conclusion, Chaney said, "It's a good thing."

A disgruntled man threw stones and damaged a woman's window after a neighbourhood dispute.
Chesterfield magistrates' court heard how Jon Greaves, 31, of Lilac Grove, South Normanton, repeatedly threw stones and cracked and chipped the window at the home of a neighbour.
Becky Allsop, prosecuting, explained Greaves had fallen out with the woman because he claimed she had got involved in an argument involving other neighbours when it had been none of her business.
The complainant was woken by several loud bangs, according to Mrs Allsop, and was woken again in the early hours by a really loud bang and saw the defendant.
Mrs Allsop said: "Police found a deep chip in the glass surrounded by small chips. Greaves stated he felt the complainant had got involved in an argument involving other neighbours and it had been none of her business."
Greaves pleaded guilty to causing criminal damage after the incident in June.
Defence solicitor Steve Brint said the woman had called him Jonathan to wind him up and had wrongly accused him of an incident that had been investigated by the housing department.
Mr Brint added Greaves, who suffers with depression, is remorseful. Magistrates sentenced Greaves to a six month conditional discharge and warned that he would be re-sentenced if he committed further offences. He was ordered to pay £200 compensation, a £15 victim surcharge and £85 costs.

Hello Gmc,
my concern is aimed at
recently i purchased the above at a local Samash store. I brought it home plug it in and loved the sound. But my issue is that the next day it wouldn't turn on. So i figured "hey maybe it was the batteries", so i changed them(i put in brand new batteries) and it started working. I take a break from melting the fretboard i come back and my pedal is off and wont turn back on. So my question is...does anyone have a clue as to why this is happening? Is this thing factory built as a battery killer, or is it just mine? Maybe something wrong with the hardware. My next step was to by an power cord but it would be a huge pain in the ass i think. Any suggestions?
thanks in advance,

The batteries should last many hours - but leaving it plugged in usually would leave it switched on and you might be draining the batteries - always unplug the leads when it is not in use.

If you leave your guitar cables plugged into pedal,even if they are not coneected to anything it will drain battery's quickly.Also this pedal in my opinion is probably a battery Eater .Invest $10-15.00 and buy a 9volt adapter new or a used one on Ebay.The way your going with batteries you will spend that amount before you know it.I always recommend getting power supplies for pedal's if you use them often as there really just not meant for serious playing time on just a battery. Sweet pedal by the way

You probably (as mentioned earlier in this thread) leave the cord plugged in. Jack out the guitar cord and the battery should last longer.
But, it seems with your pedals you have the same issue as I have with my Ibanez Weeping Demon, it's sucks a battery dry in no time. Get an adaptor for it!
I guess that short battery time comes with Wah's with bells and whistles.

An excerpt from Laurence Freeman OSB, "Anniversary of John Main, December 30th 1996," WCCM International Newsletter, Winter, 1996.
Perhaps one of the perplexing dilemmas for traditional Christianity today is the meaning of communicating the gospel in a non-competitive way in the context of relationships with other faiths. . . .For the exclusivist Christian, this is nonsensical.
From Fr John Main, "The Life Source," MOMENT OF CHRIST (New York: Continuum, 1998), pp. 76-78.
Every great spiritual tradition has known that in profound stillness the human spirit begins to be aware of its own Source. In the Hindu tradition, for example, the Upanishads speak of the spirit of the One who created the universe as dwelling in our heart.
An excerpt from Laurence Freeman OSB, CHRISTIAN MEDITATION NEWSLETTER, Vol. 34, No. 3, October 2010, pp. 4-5.
The truly other is essential to the mystical and loving mind. Otherness stimulates the mind to let go of its fixed points and expand beyond itself, enlarging the view we have of the world and of ourselves within it.
An excerpt from Laurence Freeman OSB, "Dearest Friends," WCCM International Newsletter, December 2007.
In an age of stress and anxiety like ours the burden of time presses heavily upon us. Without meaning, the intolerable weight of time and, paradoxically, its fleeting disappearance become a crucifixion without a resurrection.
An excerpt from John Main, ESSENTIAL WRITINGS, ed. Laurence Freeman (Marynoll, NY: Orbis, 2002), p. 109.
The purpose of saying the mantra is that it becomes the focus of your attention. We are not thinking of anything nor are we pursing any insights that may come to us as we say the mantra.
An excerpt from "Dearest Friends," Laurence Freeman OSB in the Newsletter of the World Community for Christian Meditation, Vol. 32, No. 3, September 2008, p. 4.
When the force of faith is set free in the human person it impels us to experience reality beyond words, images, and ideas. We then discover that the filters of metaphor, however useful and necessary they may be at one level, can also (and need to) be deactivated if faith is to grow.
An excerpt from John Main OSB, "The Present Christ" (April 1981), in MONASTERY WITHOUT WALLS: The Spiritual Letters of John Main, ed. L. Freeman (Norwich: Canterbury, 2006), p. 163.
In the Resurrection we are absolved from the need to objectify God. No longer do we have to talk to God, to appease or petition him. "Your Father knows what your needs are before you ask him," Jesus assures us.
An excerpt from Laurence Freeman OSB, "A Theology of Experience" from MONASTERY WITHOUT WALLS: The Spiritual Letters of John Main (Norwich: Canterbury Press, 2006), p. 232-3.
John Main [once] recounted about the response to a talk on prayer he had given to a Trappist monastery in Ireland. The abbot had made an impromptu request for an hour's conference on contemplative prayer and led him into a stark church lined with two choirs of silent, hooded monks.
From John Main OSB, "The Wholeness of God," MOMENT OF CHRIST (New York: Continuum, 1998), p.83-85.
As we all know from our own sad experience we are so easily distracted. God's love is given to each of us freely and generously and universally. God's love flows in our hearts in a mighty stream.
An excerpt from John Main OSB, "Death and Resurrection," MOMENT OF CHRIST (New York: Continuum, 1998), pp. 68-69.
[T]he whole Christian tradition tells us is that if we would become wise we must learn the lesson that we have here "no abiding city." [We must hear] what the wise of ages past and present say to us: to have life in focus we must have death in [focus. . .].

SALT LAKE CITY — The annual meeting of the controversial American Legislative Exchange Council started Wednesday with a speech by Gov. Gary Herbert lauding the organization's goals and also sparked several protests.
"We have common beliefs," Herbert told some 1,300 lawmakers from around the country, business executives and advocates of conservative causes gathered at the Grand America for the conference, which continues through Friday.
ALEC has been criticized for bringing together lobbyists and lawmakers to craft model legislation, such as the "Stand Your Ground" gun law in Florida at the center of the Treyvon Martin case, the teenager shot and killed by a neighborhood watch volunteer.
"The private sector is part of the effort of ALEC, they sponsor it," the governor told reporters. "It costs money and I'd just as soon the private sector pay for it as opposed to the taxpayers. I think that's a good thing," he said.
He said any legislation developed by the council is subjected to a "healthy debate" in the state legislatures where it is introduced. "I think there's more politics involved in the criticism than reality," Herbert said.
The "ALEC Welcoming Committee," a group that includes members of Occupy Salt Lake City, was among those staging protests Wednesday. The group's Jesse Fruhwirth called ALEC "a conglomeration of the world's richest multinational corporations. They're a lobbying organization that relies on a pay-to-play, where if you have hundreds of thousands of dollars, you can buy legislation."
Herbert said in his luncheon speech that Utah is already a leader in promoting ALEC's focus on advancing free markets, limited government and federalism. For the fifth year in a row, Utah ranked at the top of the organization's sate economic competitiveness index.
"The principles that ALEC stands for, is one of limited government, free markets and economic opportunity for everybody," the governor said. "I hope you'll take some of the examples of Utah with you back to your states."
Herbert noted Utah has, in recent years, lowered its tax rates and modified or eliminated nearly 400 regulations on business to create what he called a fertile field for companies. Regulations, he said, "are like weeds" and need to be eradicated.
The governor also urged the group to help Utah in its battle to regain control of public lands, equating property rights with freedom and economic development and calling for "an appropriate balance when it comes to the management of public lands."
His Democratic opponent in the governor's race, Peter Cooke, questioned why Herbert would address "an organization with a reputation for connecting wealthy corporations with state legislators for the purpose of writing bills favorable to those corporate special interests."
Cooke also criticized ALEC for coming up with legislation behind closed doors, calling the organization "shrouded in secrecy."
Jonathan Williams, director of the ALEC tax and fiscal policy department, said the organization has long reserved the right to restrict access to some discussions. "We are a membership organization," Williams said.
Utah House Speaker Becky Lockhart, R-Provo, said the controversy surrounding ALEC did not diminish the state's top-ranking in the organization's "Rich States, Poor States" ranking.
"ALEC is an organization that believes in limited government, free-market principles, personal responsibility," Lockhart said. "I'm not in any way ashamed to belong to an organization like that....These are the things the people of Utah believe as well."
National Right to Work Committee Vice President Greg Mourad, among the exhibitors at the ALEC meeting, dismissed the organization's critics.
"I never thought there was anything controversial about it. Like-minded people get together to share ideas about the problem," Mourad said. "For the most part, the legislators who come here tend to be pro-liberty and pro-limited government. They don't get their minds changed by ALEC."

If you follow me on Twitter then you know I was in Arkansas last weekend shooting a piece for CBS Sports on "The Best Road Trip Destination in NCAA College Basketball". If you don't follow me on Twitter– then well….at least you check on me here!
Anyhow…Enterprise Rental had a Facebook contest where fans voted to help their school win and featured in a piece on CBS to air during the Final Four.
Believe it or not- Harding University won.
Now, as someone who went to a Big Ten school- and not just any school- one with one of the best college basketball programs out there- I was a bit confused as to how a Division two school won.
Turns out, the entire student body and their cousins, cousins voted once a day. Dedication wins people.
So we headed out to Little Rock for part one of the shoot, and then moved along to Searcy, AR.
Searcy is the first DRY COUNTY I've ever been to. I didn't really know those existed to be honest, nor did I realize that to have a drink one would need to travel 30 miles from Searcy. Wild.
We shot at Yarnell's Ice Cream Factory, and wouldn't ya know, it was freezing that day. So here I am, one of the few people in the world who isn't into ice cream- trying about 6 different kinds for the sake of the shot- in an ice cold lab. Thank goodness the GM Alex, was so nice- although he did give me the side eye when I asked for a spit cup like people use in Napa.
Taking out lactose frustration with the blade they use to slice ice cream at Yarnell's.
Production assistant Mike with GM Alex and Producer Jill post -shoot.
The next morning we shot the "tailgate" at Whistle Stop BBQ. And by "tailgate" I mean, a group that included; the school's President, cheerleaders, "Head Rowdies", and other fans. They were all sober, and extremely polite and well behaved. Color me confused! At MSU's tailgates we did beer slides.
Whistle Stop had all vintage decor, including this straight jacket from a local institution hanging from the ceiling.
After the *rowdy* tailgate, we headed over to interview Coach Morgan and three of the players on the court.
Coach was so sweet, and he actually teared up while talking about his love for the fans. He gave each of us a photo of the crowd to remember Harding by when we went home.
Put me in Coach!
At Harding, the students line up outside Rhodes Field House to get a seat for the men's game- BEFORE the women's game. Yes, so students cheer on both the women's and men's teams- genius.
Once I saw the stands filled, all of my skepticism was gone. These fans were INSANE. They all had their faces painted, and most of them had costumes on. A handful had mannequin head's on sticks that they'd wave around while chanting.
It was quite a sight to see…but nothing compared to their National Anthem. The entire arena harmonized acapella to the Star Spangled Banner. It sounded like a church choir.
Lesson of the day: college kids who don't drink can also be fun and wild.
After a successful shoot, we headed back into Little Rock, checked into our 3rd hotel in 3 nights (not that I was counting) and went to a celebratory dinner.
This was followed by fun with my friends Jeremy and Hadley who split time between Little Rock and Chicago. They took us to the coolest bar I've ever been to- it was a dive with three guys spinning, an artist creating and a performer. It was super cool to experience nightlife with things to do besides drink at stare at each other.
Hadley and Jeremy- the coolest married folk in the south.
The 5am wakeup call and trip to the airport was a real *treat*, and I couldn't wait to get home. But I will say- there is something magical about the south. The hospitality of the people is something unlike anything i've seen in the Midwest.
To watch me suffer thru eating dairy and more shenanigans- tune into CBS on April 6th at 1pm.
Oh, and GOOOOO BISONS!

Public Release of PerlQt 3.002 including RAD support
The PerlQt project is pleased to announce today the first public release of PerlQt 3, a full-featured object-oriented Perl interface to the Qt3 toolkit.
Key features include
support for nearly all Qt classes through SMOKE, a language-neutral binding library brought to you by Ashley Winters and David Faure (and Richard Dale's kalyptus), unlimited slots and signals, virtual function overloading, and Rapid Application Development (RAD) through puic, a Qt Designer compatible user interface compiler. Here is a screenshot of some PerlQt applications. There is also a tutorial available to help you get started. Enjoy!
shameless cheerleading.
All I've got to say is *wow* this is absolutely terrific. People have been waiting for a long time for PerlQt 3, and now it comes out with RAD support. Congratulations to the new PerlQt team!
This is also the first I've heard of SMOKE. How does it work? Is it like the libqtc library or something?
Any word on what Richard Dale is up to these days?
By Navindra Umanee at Tue, 2002/09/17 - 5:00am
Re: shameless cheerleading.
I'd be interested in more info on Smoke as well. I'm going to releasing new (much improved) version of KJSEmbed soon and this could be used to make it even more powerful.
By Richard Moore at Tue, 2002/09/17 - 5:00am
What Smoke is (Re: shameless cheerleading.)
Smoke is a wrapper around Qt (later: KDE), which sort of indexes everything in Qt. All classes, all methods, with all arguments, etc. are put into cross-referencing arrays (for fast lookups). So smokeqt is a meta-definition of qt, where one can read (and call) the whole Qt API by simply reading a few arrays.
The main purpose of Smoke is to make it easy to write bindings from scripting languages to Qt and KDE - with an emphasis on performance.
At the moment it's only used by PerlQt, but feel free to look into it for developing your next generation language bindings ;)
Note: most of the design of Smoke is from Ashley Winters, the PerlQt guy.
By David Faure at Tue, 2002/09/17 - 5:00am
Re: What Smoke is (Re: shameless cheerleading.)
David is right on the money. In fact, Smoke contains two different types of information.
First, it has a wrapper around every function in every class -- ala. SIP for PyQt. Static languages (Java, C#, etc) can use that part of PerlQt just like they would use SIP.
In addition to that, SMOKE contains meta-information... a sort of reflective introspection of the Qt library allowing queries of what functions are available and their arguments and return-types. The PerlQt binding takes full advantage of that information by providing do-what-I-mean function calling and automagic type coercion and multimethod dispatch. It also helps me make up nonsensical buzzwords to make me look smart.
Scripting languages can take advantage of that added information to provide neato stuff. Neato stuff is the best.
In conclusion (my writing teacher loves when I use that), SMOKE is the best thing since libc. Thank you. Please send your checks to me, since I'm homeless and can't work on PerlQt except to respond to e-mails from the local library. Feel free to Cc me on your Smoke questions to the PerlQt mailing-list if you're patient enough to wait a week for my response. Sadly, my Yahoo account would croak if I subscribed to the PerlQt mailing-list but only checked it once a week.
Sorry to dump it all on you Germain, but you've done a great job. Congratulations!

Re: What Smoke is (Re: shameless cheerleading.)
Wow! Looks like you guys have done some *amazing* work with SMOKE and PerlQt. Congratulations!
Regarding the usefullness of smoke for the C# bindings... I'm not sure this is the way to go. We are in the midst of a major refactor of Qt# with the goal to replace libqtc altogether. We've written a custom parser in C# that takes the Qt headers and outputs an xml representation of them. We will then feed this xml into our generator. We are going to replace libqtc with libqtsharp which will contain all the constructors for the QObjects and then we'll call libqt directly by mangling our function names. The idea is to reduce our dependencies and tailor our glue code to meet the specific needs of the CLR.
Anyways, Nice Work: Ashley, David, Everyone

Re: shameless cheerleading.
Hello Navindra,
SMOKE basically provides a stack of arguments and a way to locate and call easily a given method by name and munged prototype.
The main advantage of this strategy is you don't have to rely on manually tweaked interface files, which are the bane of others bindings.
As for Richard, I really have no idea... he was working with us some monthes ago, and then suddenly disappeared... I've sent some mails to him but never had an answer :-/

New Python Libraries
Hurm. Python libraries for Qt and KDE would be much appreciated. Right now, it takes me about 12 hours to compile them (via the sip library), but much more importantly, not only have I never gotten PyKDE working right. In addition, from browsing mailing lists, many people have to disable core parts of the library to get it to compile. I also have never gotten any binary installs to work, and from reading about it, it appears that the libraries may be somehow minor version specific (!!).
Disclaimer: I tilt at the libraries every couple months. I just subscribed to the PyKDE mailing list to make a serious run at getting everything working. My current problem is that calls don't seem to line up between what KDE provides and what sip generates. Odd.
(Incidently, I have an urge to poke at Smoke now and see if I can get it to create a Zend library just to write a couple dozen KDE apps in PHP to tweak the people on the dot who say PHP is just a web scripting language)

Maybe you missed a few spaces. Also check for tabs. Mixing them with spaces is lethal in Python!

Re: New Python Libraries
Heh. I'm talking about when I compile PyKDE - the autogenerated .cpp files are making KDE calls that don't exist or are malformed. Nor am I alone (although this particular problem seems to be unreported).
I'm somewhat familiar with Python (not an expert, but I've written a few programs and I know the language passibly well). I haven't gotten to the point of even compiling the PyKDE libraries, running into problems in kdecorecmodule.
I'm not sure, but I'm fairly certain that's a key module I can't just skip (a la what most people seem to suggest on the mailing list when the compile hits a problem). I'm probably going to have to edit the code, but there's something not right in editing autogenerated stubs - I need to see what's generating those incorrect entries.
By Evan "JabberWok... at Tue, 2002/09/17 - 5:00am
Re: New Python Libraries
"Nor am I alone (although this particular problem seems to be unreported)."
... so is the problem reported, or not?
Re: New Python Libraries
I am not alone in having this sort of error in compilation (the sip generated code not aligning to the Qt API), but this problems with the wrapper for this particular call hasn't appeared on the list (or anywhere else via Google). The problem of one of the wrappers having this error has been reported, however, and the usual recommendation seems to be to just skip that module. Since this is a core module, I cannot do that.
Again, I'm not slamming this project. I've only tried on SuSE 7.3 and 8.0, and maybe SuSE has directories or library locations different than those that sip assumes. Or maybe sip is borked. Or maybe it's my fault somehow. It's just a fairly common problem according to what I've read, so my only observation is that the compilation process (which, as a side note, does not use autoconf but rather a python script) could be a bit more robust. YMMV.
The end result looks great - it's just a little rough to get it installed in my experience. My monitor died yesterday, so I haven't done anything with it today - maybe I'll have it running in the next twenty minutes :).

Re: New Python Libraries
What can I say, PyQt has worked for me for a very long time. I've only just recently (in the last couple of weeks) looked into PyKDE, and it worked out of the box too. Perhaps you're not using the latest Qt or KDE? There are always going to be some minor-version incompatibilities - some library developers out there seem to have no problem with changing APIs between minor versions...
And it certainly didn't take _12_ hours to compile on my relatively low-powered Pentium-II 350 .. what are you using, a 386???
Re: New Python Libraries
:: Perhaps you're not using the latest Qt or KDE?
3.0.5 and 3.0.3. SuSE's RPMs.
:: And it certainly didn't take _12_ hours to compile on my relatively low-powered Pentium-II 350 .. what are you using, a 386???
A dual 700 PIII. And it certainly took me 12 hours of elapsed clock time - but only several hours (maybe 4 to 5) actual compile time. I kicked off the build.py, waited several minutes, realized that takes a long time, came back an hour later, kicked off make, came back an hour later, did make install as root, etc, etc. Then I hit PyKDE, and it didn't work. Okay, start from scratch... repeat. Yeah - the actual compiles took a long time, but the compile process involved quite a bit of "waiting on user", and "user sighing, deleting directories, untarring, trying again" and "user downloading source rpms and trying those". :)
Again, I'm not slamming the project (although by the antagonistic tone here, I feel like I'm having to defend the fact that it didn't work for me). I'm sure it buttered your toast - it just didn't compile out of the tarball on a pretty vanilla SuSE install for me. Cest la vie.

Is SMOKE an answer to .NET's multi laguage capabilities?
By Marc at Tue, 2002/09/17 - 5:00am
Re: SMOKE
In a word no. They are completely different beasts. SMOKE allows the binding developer an easier method of creating bindings for Qt/KDE. .Net is a development platform.
By Adam Treat at Wed, 2002/09/18 - 5:00am
Re: SMOKE
I thought it was designed to be independant of the scripting language on one side and the language of the library on the other side, so that you could create bindings for all kinds of things. One example being Qt to python bindings. Aren't other combinations possible?
By Marc at Wed, 2002/09/18 - 5:00am
Re: SMOKE
Yes, but then you're creating a language that makes calls to a toolkit library. .NET is more like Java, in that it targets a virtual machine, which waaay back in the day we'd call it "like P-Code": a binary file that is executed by an interpreter. .NET and Java can call Qt, since it's a toolkit library (assuming that the VM supports API extensions a la libraries, which they, like all modern VMs, both do).
A .NET binary should run on any machine, but has the overhead hit of being abstracted from the system, with the expected performance and features issues. Java forged the way, so those issues have been minimized, but still exist. A Qt/whatever application can run on any supported platform if you have the right compiler or interpreter, a KDE/whatever application works the same, but you need the kdelibs. It's lower level, and the binary isn't portable, since it's targeted to that platform.
(To *really* confuse things, Java is both a VM and a language, and the language can be compiled and targeted to a platform, resulting in executable code not needing the VM.)

We are pleased to announce that we are launching a gluten-free and ready-to-fill frozen pie crust.
In addition to being gluten-free, the new pie shells are also free of dairy, tree nuts, peanuts and preservatives, making the product ideal for consumers with special dietary needs. The 100-calorie per serving pie shells can be used to deliciously mimic any traditional single crust or double crust pie.
With a suggest retail price of $4.99, each package of Kinnikinnick Pie Crusts contains two 8" pie shells and will be available starting in September at health food and traditional grocery stores in both the United States and Canada. A variety of recipe ideas for working with the pie crust can be found on the recipes tab of the Kinnikinnick website, www.kinnikinnick.com.
Jerry Bigam, President & CEO of Kinnikinnick, knows that dietary restrictions can make satisfying simple cravings a challenge: "We hope that with our ready-to-fill crusts, baking gluten, dairy and nut-free is fun, delicious, and easy as pie."
Direct customers please note: Because pie crusts are sold frozen & uncooked, they will not be available through our home delivery program

The name and the idea behind Orphans' Court were taken from the Court of the Orphans of the City of London. In the 17th century, this court protected the rights of minor children whose fathers had died. (At this time, women could not own property, so the survival of the mother was immaterial.) The court could compel executors and guardians to file inventories and accounts and give security for the estates they administered. When Maryland was settled, Lord Baltimore made sure that the citizens of his colony enjoyed the same protection. This was particularly important because ownership of property was available to all, but there was a high mortality rate.
At the time of your death, you will no longer be able to directly control the disposition of the fruits of your life's labor. The Orphans' Court system is designed to provide ready accessibility, a jurisdiction under which entire probate proceeding can be conducted and supervised in one court, and the availability of the professional courts, including a jury, for the asking.
In Cecil County the office of the Register of Wills serves as the Clerk to the Orphans' Court. The Register of Wills is responsible for appointing personal representatives to administer decedents' estates and for overseeing the proper and timely administration of these proceedings. It also performs the following duties: assists and advises the public in the preparation of all required forms; maintains and preserves the permanent record of all proceedings; tracks estates and refers delinquent matters to the Court; determines and collects inheritance taxes and probate fees/court costs; audits accounts of personal representatives and guardians; mails various notices and court orders to interested persons; and, verifies compliance with court orders.
Most of the court's duties have to do with the administration of estates. It is the responsibility of the Orphans' Court to ensure that the provisions of a will are followed, that the rights of heirs are protected in the absence of a will, that creditor's rights are preserved, and that the personal representative fulfills his duties. The Orphans' court conducts judicial probate, directs the conduct of personal representatives, secures the rights of minors, and rules on fees for attorneys and personal representatives.
Only part of the Orphans' Court's duties actually have to do with "orphans." The court has jurisdiction over the estates of decedents. If an inheritance is left to a minor child, the court may appoint a guardian of the property. The guardian will report to the court on a regular basis until the child comes of age.
The Orphans' Court also settles disputes over estates and may rule on such matters as testamentary capacity, fraud, undue influence, and due execution of a will. Proceedings in this court are often less formal than in others.
The Judges of the Orphans' Court are elected by the people and are accountable to the people. After two centuries, the Orphans' Court is still a high privilege of citizenship in Maryland. There is something unique and personal about the availability of the judges of a probate court to the people whose estates are to be administered. Their job is to enforce your will, to preserve the integrity of your estate, to protect the rights of your heirs, to settle disputes that may arise, and to safeguard your children's inheritance. The three judges function as a team; they are part of the local community and the merge their different perspectives and experiences in the decision-making process for the good of the people they serve.
The Orphans' Court fits into the Maryland court structure at a horizontal level with the Circuit Court. Its jurisdiction is limited to probate and property guardianship, but within that jurisdiction it has full power to enforce rulings.
The decisions of the Orphans' Court may be appealed to the Circuit Court where they will be heard de novo, meaning as a new case, or to the Court of Special Appeals where they will be heard on record. In addition, issues of fact may be transmitted to the professional courts for determination by judge or jury. The matter is then returned to the Orphans' Court for further proceedings.

Architecture A.B.,M.S San Diego State University M.Arch., California State Polytechnic University, Pomona
Architecture is the study of creating livable and workable environments balancing social, political, economic, technical, and aesthetic requirements with human needs. Although building design is the ultimate goal of the program of study, knowledge about how people affect environments and manage resources in the creation of structure is of major importance. Architects rely on an understanding of a diversity of subjects including mathematics, physics, design, graphics, engineering, architecture history, visual art, social sciences, and humanities.
Below is a sample of the career options available to the architecture major. A few of these require an associate degree, some require a bachelor's degree, and most require a graduate-level degree: architect, urban planner, environmental researcher, architectural technician, vocational teacher, college instructor, landscape architect or technician, building contractor, construction supervisor, CAD specialist, architectural engineer, construction manager, drafting technician, and the allied professions such as business, marketing, and interior design.

Look we are a nice pretty 8-18 record. When we were 2-8 i predicted the next 10 games to be 8-2 and take our record to 10-10 . Whilst this season hasn't been pretty ( Loosing to the Clips ) there's been some major signs for rejoycing ( I love how Richardson is stepping up ) ( and Speedy's just running the ship hands down ) I would like to offer this opportunity to break down how our team will perform leading to Allstar weekend. ( @ first i wanted to do a NEW YEARS RESOLUTION post but i thought what the hell take it to the Allstar break and trade deadline and show my fellow World Wide Warriors why we will win!
26th/12: @ Sac / WIN ( Preseason we domin8d them, Vlades gone to )
27th/12: vs Nug WIN ( No1 strikes gold in BOWLING 4 Columbine city )
29th/12: vs Rapts ( VCless n Zo'less . It's in the bag )
@ the end of Dec we sitting on a pretty 11-18.
January !
1/1: @ Portland WIN ( i'd say VanExel torched us last time, But hey it's the Trailblazers and last night was New Year's . Who knows what they were smoking? ) 12-18
3/1: vs 76'ers WIN ( people talk about Kobe wanting to be the man, A.I has carried this franchise on his shoulders, But still no teammates means no win ) 13-18
5/1: @ Boston LOST ( There's just to many LEADERS , to let Jrich even have the opportunity for tipslam and win, When you got Payton, Peirce and Ricky D. those 3 have that much pride i don't think we can steal the win ) 13-19
7/1: @ NJ LOST ( Well Cliffy will be playing for them by then. i just hope JKidd's in a New Jersey by then ) 13-20
9/1: @ Toronto WIN ( It's this time of the roadtrip, Monty talks about our performance on the road, I think we will win this because Vince will have tipped there game plan the other night in New Jersey ) 14-20
10/1: @ Chicago WIN ( hmm there hot at the moment, But like i said dissapointing roadtrip means we got to beat teams like this ) 15-20
12/1: vs Miami WIN ( Shaq is MIA . he doesn't play Kobe again til 17/3 , so i think he is injured till then with saw pinkie or fat gut ) 16-20
14/1: @ Seattle LOST ( Ray Allen, Luke Ridnour, Rashard Lewis better hope one of these guys injured ) 16-21
15/1: vs Lakers WIN ( KobenCo ah its a home game, and his teammates are probably already sick of him ) 17-21
17/1 vs Denver LOST ( They play Minesota @ home on the 14th, so they are well rested and ready for the Warriors ) 17-22
21/1 @ LAKERS LOST ( Hmm Staples Centre, Nicholson probably got some beer to throw at us and Kobe loves to play for his hometown ) 17-23
22/1 vs LeBron WIN ( last game of 6 games in 10 days west coast swing for the CAVS, If we don't absolutly pumel a team with that grueling scheduale, i say fire Montgom and get Silas ) 18-23
26/1 ( HAPPY AUSTRALIA DAY MATES ) vs NJ WIN ( Well Jason Kidd will be in a Warriors uniform by then and will want to show up Thorn who traded him recently, i predict the win ) 19-23
28/1 vs SEATTLE WIN ( It's at the Arena, Where getting use to wins at home ) 20-23
29/1 @ LAC LOST ( back to back . Dunleavy Sr will probably whisper something to his son and the crowd boos , young Mikey asks for his dummy and his baby rattler , TOUGH LOSS ) 20-24
At the end of January, Warriors J's are selling fast in all major cities, Jrich is hands down favourite to back up his slam dunk contest and it will be the first time we see a Warrior in a ALLSTAR Game since Sprewell .
20-24 is impressive. we lose a total of 6 games in Jan
2/2 vs SAC WIN ( Sac has massive crowd support, yet Webber is out with tantrum injuries ) 21-24
4/2 vs NEW ORL WIN ( It's at home we won the last 3OT at home, why not again ) 22-24
5/2 @ Den LOST ( The celebrities are traveling down from Aspen and Vail, But there's just to much hype in this building leading up to Allstar weekend, unfortuneatly . we LOSE ) 22-25
7/2 @ MIAMI LOST ( Shaq is off the injured list because he just relizes how many votes he got and it's for him to get into shape to dominate Kobe in less then 2 weeks time ) 22-26
8/2 @ Orlando WIN ( It's that ****ing Francis, But someones gotta step up on him because he is half the reason why the Warriors been bad for the last 5 years or so, Hopefully our JKidd in new shining armour will be the trick ) 23-26
13/2 vs PHX WIN ( It's at home, it's the SUNS though. Hopefully people like Nash and Marion are too busy shopping in the cosmopolition San Fran that they just forget to turn up to the game and rather hang out with all there roadies the day before Valentines ) 24-26
15/2 vs DAL WIN ( Erick Dampier is back home and has 70 Million to spend, it was Valentines the day before and rumour has it Adonal Foyle spiked his drink at dinner the night before and date raped his fellow 7 footer ) 25-26
16/2 @ SEATTLE WIN ( Ray Allen doesn't even turn up because his too busy playing NBA Live seeing if he has a chance at winning the 3 point contest, Jason Richardson is in the same boat but his hands are on the controller playing the slam dunk contest, Either way the team knows it's the last game before DENVER and if they win tonight then they are a .500 team ) 26-26

Federal, state and local authorities use search warrants in Brockton and Taunton to arrest two men for murder and another for drug possession.
Manuel Rodrigues was shot three times in the back of the head, twice in the right hand and once in the back – all because he did the right thing, officials said.
Rodrigues, 32, who drove a van carrying workers to job sites, witnessed a murder and testified willingly before a grand jury hearing evidence against the murder suspect, Michael Barros.
In retaliation, authorities say, two friends of Barros fired six shots at Rodrigues at 5:30 a.m. Feb. 17, gunning him down as he stood on the porch of his girlfriend's home on Nilsson Street in Brockton. He was on his way to work.
Early Thursday morning, federal, state and local police swept through Brockton, arresting two men on charges of killing Rodrigues. Police also seized crack cocaine and four weapons, including an SKS semi-automatic assault rifle.
"Brockton is safer today than it was yesterday," Plymouth County District Attorney Timothy J. Cruz said. "A couple of individuals have been taken off the street that were incredibly dangerous, and four weapons were taken off the street today."
Joao Fernandes, 28, of 44 Parker St., Brockton, was charged with murder, four counts of unlawful possession of a firearm, unlawful possession of ammunition and trafficking in cocaine.
Michael Goncalves, 25, with addresses in Brockton and Taunton, was charged with murder, unlawful possession of a firearm and unlawful possession of ammunition.
The seven-month investigation also yielded two additional arrests unrelated to the murder.
During a search of Fernandes' apartment, police found three guns, including the assault rifle, a .40-caliber semi-automatic handgun and a .25-caliber semi-automatic handgun.
Arrested at the scene was Carlos Fernandes, 30, on charges of unlawful possession of a firearm and ammunition.
Goncalves was arrested in Taunton following a police chase that resulted in a crash. In the vehicle with him was Jermaine Gonsalves, 23, of 43 Melrose St., Brockton, along with a 9mm semi-automatic handgun and crack cocaine.
Gonsalves was arrested on federal narcotics charges and held for arraignment in U.S. District Court in Boston.
"Our sympathies go out to the family of Manny Rodrigues," Cruz said Thursday. "He was a hard-working man who wanted to do the right thing. Despite the danger that he knew he faced, at the end of the day he put the good of his community first."
Cruz said the district attorney's office had offered relocation services to Rodrigues to protect him from retaliation. But Rodrigues had ties to Brockton, where his late father ran a temporary employment agency.
"Sometimes people leave, and then they come back," Cruz said. "He had family and a business here. People have business, family and friends here and all of a sudden you're saying to them, 'You've got to leave your life behind.'"
Cruz said police have evidence that the night before Rodrigues was murdered, Fernandes went to a friend's home in Brockton and obtained a .45-caliber Ruger handgun, ski mask and gloves, leaving in a car driven by Goncalves. Hours after the murder, Cruz said, the murder suspect returned to the house and asked his friend to dispose of a bag containing his clothes.
Fernandes was to receive $3,000 from Goncalves for killing Rodrigues, Cruz said, and after the murder, witnesses saw him with the money.
Barros is awaiting trial on a charge of murder in the drive-by shooting of Moises Vicente, 23, of Attleboro, on Hancock Street in Brockton on Jan. 17.
The investigation into Rodrigues' death was conducted by state and Brockton police detectives, the FBI, the State Police Gang Unit, STOP Team, K-9 Unit, FBI SWAT team and the U.S. Drug Enforcement Administration.

Follow the money
A recent edition of the New York Times revealed the results of an investigation. It showed that lobbyists in Washington are spending more than $3 billion per year lobbying Congress. A recent analysis conducted by former Agriculture Ctommissioner Jim Hightower identified amounts of money spent on lobbying in campaign contributions by category. His report was broken down by financial institutions, pro sports, radio, television and publishing companies. But the most interesting to me were the contributions of health care corporations. The top 13 health care companies donated a little over $9 million in the last election cycle. Ninety-five percent of all of this went to Republicans.
Oil and gas interests, clothing manufacturers, food processors and paper companies, along with coal miners and insurance companies, contributed far more than $9 million each in the last election cycle. Again, the vast majority of their contributions went to Republicans.
Before you decide listening to Fox News, writing an occasional letter to your congressman, and standing up for patriotism and free enterprise makes you a great and informed citizen, think again. Follow the money.
What do you think special interests gained by their $3 billion worth of lobbying and an ungodly amount of political contributions? They got freedom from regulation, which very likely was one of the root causes of the disaster at West, Texas, blowing up half a small community right outside Waco.
Health care companies such as rich pharmaceutical firms managed to stave off competition, maintained unbelievable prices for their products, and even prohibited the federal government from negotiating prices of pharmaceuticals for American consumers.
If we decide to talk patriotism, there's more to it than wearing a tri-cornered hat and dressing up like Paul Revere. Citizens should take an in-depth look at corporations and at their ownership and loyalties. Many of the corporations that spent the $3 billion lobbying Congress, on top of massive donations to Republican candidates, are in many instances owned in significant part by foreign interests. If you ask a high-paid corporate executive of almost any of those publicly traded corporations what their main goal is for their company, it will not be supporting America, Americanism or looking out for American citizens. It will be producing a profit they can report to their board. Their loyalty is not necessarily to any country, but to the bottom line. It boggles my mind that too many middle-class Americans, particularly those working for an hourly wage, have not figured out their own interests when it comes to a contest between the big-money boys and their $3 billion lobbyists, working every day and passing out hundreds of millions of dollars in campaign contributions. Who comes in first and who comes in second? Do you really believe if you have a small business making $250,000 a year or less, or are working out at one of the plants for even a top-dollar wage, that you would be heard before the lobbyists passing out the big bucks in Congress or Austin? Think again.

Car News: 2014 Geneva Auto Show
Jeep Cherokee Diesel to Debut in Geneva
- European debut of new Jeep Cherokee
- Available turbocharged diesel engine
- Available 9-speed automatic transmission
Making its European debut at the upcoming Geneva Auto Show, the all-new Jeep Cherokee will be joined in Europe by a diesel-powered version that's not available in the U.S. -- at least not yet. Joining the 4- and 6-cylinder gasoline versions for the European market is the Jeep Cherokee Diesel. With a 2.0-liter 4-cylinder turbocharged diesel engine, the Cherokee Diesel offers the most torque of the three available engines.
While the available gasoline V6 engine produces considerably more horsepower (271 hp compared to a maximum of 170 hp for the diesel) the small diesel is capable of an impressive 258 lb-ft of torque -- 19 lb-ft over the gas V6. Ample torque is helpful for driving conditions that require more muscle than speed, such as off-road driving and towing.
The Jeep Cherokee should prove fuel efficient too, though no official fuel economy ratings are available yet. Efficiency is bolstered by a start/stop system and an available 9-speed automatic transmission that comes standard on the U.S. version. In Europe, Cherokee buyers who choose the diesel get a standard 6-speed manual transmission with the diesel motor rated at 140 hp. With the optional 9-speed automatic, the diesel is tuned for more power, with a peak output of 170 hp. The two versions offer equal torque.
Like in the U.S., the new Euro-spec Cherokee offers no fewer than three 4-wheel-drive systems. Jeep Active Drive I is a fully automatic system, while Jeep Active Drive II and Active Drive Lock allow the driver to select 2-wheel or 4-wheel drive and low-range gearing. Only Jeep Active Drive I and II are available for the European Cherokee Diesel. Active Drive Lock requires buyers to choose a gasoline engine.
As in the U.S., Jeep will offer a range of high-tech driver assistance functions for the new Cherokee. Collision warning, adaptive cruise control, automatic perpendicular and parallel parking, lane departure warning and blind spot warning are all available.
The new Jeep Cherokee Diesel will be available in Europe beginning in the second half of 2014. Although no plans have been announced to bring the diesel Cherokee stateside, such a decision is conceivable. Jeep already offers a diesel version of the larger Grand Cherokee here, and parent company Chrysler appears keen on diesels for its RAM brand too.
What it means to you: Jeep won't offer the Cherokee Diesel in the U.S. -- at least not for now -- but American drivers who want a diesel-powered Jeep can find it in the Jeep Grand Cherokee EcoDiesel.

No matter the weather, someone is enjoying the Monon Trail during the day. In 2005, the Monon Trail was used more than 1.2 million times, making this urban greenway perhaps one of the busiest in the nation. Originally built in 1847, the rail-trail pioneered in Indiana an already nation-wide vision: converting railways to greenways for recreation and commuter use. The Monon links commercial districts, schools, parks, the state fairgrounds and a dozen residential neighborhoods.
Greenway DescriptionThe Monon Trail – completed in 2003 – measurers approximately 10.4 miles from 10th Street to 96th Street, where it connects with the 5.2-mile Monon Greenway in Carmel. It also has direct connections to the Fall Creek Greenway and the Central Canal Towpath, which leads to the White River Wapahani Trail to form a trail network that reaches to the west side of the downtown district.

gh1504, Revised May 2015
Freezing is an excellent method of preserving animal products. Follow these basic guidelines to make freezing simple and effective:
Refer to MU Extension publication GH1501, Freezing Basics, for more detailed information on the freezing process and recommended storage times.
If you are inexperienced butchering meat, have a professional meat cutter slaughter your animal, cut it into serving pieces, and quick freeze it for you. If you want to do everything yourself, refer to MU Extension publication G2208, Home Slaughtering and Processing of Beef.
Freeze meat in meal-sized packages. Use a container or wrap that is moisture-vapor-proof. Remove as many bones as possible because they take up freezer space. Prevent off-flavors by trimming excess fat, which will become rancid. The store wrap on purchased meats is not meant for long-term freezer storage. Meat frozen in store wrap will suffer freezer burn in a few weeks. Freezer burn occurs when air dries the meat and causes loss of flavor. Rewrap or overwrap purchased meats that will be kept frozen longer than two weeks. When packing several cuts in one package, put two layers of freezer paper between the pieces. This layering makes it easy to separate pieces for fast thawing. Meats can be wrapped using either the drugstore wrap or the butcher wrap method (Figure 1).
Cured meats
Salt increases the rate at which rancidity develops in meat. For this reason, bacon and cured hams have an extremely short freezer life and should be used within one month. Freezing is not recommended for hot dogs and luncheon meats because their emulsion will be broken and the product will "weep."
Freezing cooked meats
Cooked meat will dry out much faster than fresh meat in the freezer if it is not covered with some kind of sauce, gravy or broth. The liquid fills up the air spaces and prevents drying by protecting the meat from exposure to the air. Even cooked meats frozen in liquid should be kept a shorter time than fresh meats — no longer than three months.
Although chicken and turkey are by far the most popular types of poultry eaten in the United States, duck and goose offer tasty alternatives.
Select plump, unblemished and odorless poultry for freezing.
Choose poultry according to your use. Tender young birds are best for roasting, frying and broiling, whereas the more flavorful older birds are best for braising or stewing.
Whole birds are always the best buys. Although buying parts is more convenient, you are paying someone else for cutting up the poultry. You can save money by purchasing whole birds and learning the simple task of cutting them up yourself (Figure 2).
Freeze poultry in the form you intend to use it: whole, halved or cut up. When freezing cut-up pieces, put a double layer of freezer paper between pieces or halves for easy separation and faster thawing. When packaging pieces, arrange them to form a compact, square, flat package so that they will stack better in the freezer. Package and freeze giblets separately because they have a shorter shelf life and cannot be stored as long as light or dark meat.
Because of the irregular shape of poultry, freezer bags are easier to use than wrap. It is important to get all the air out of freezer bags in which poultry is stored. Even small air pockets can cause freezer burn. The best way to get out most of the air is to plunge the bag into a pan of water to force all the air to the top. Quickly twist the top end and seal.
The store wrap on purchased poultry is not meant for long-term freezer storage. Poultry frozen in store wrap will suffer freezer burn in a few weeks. Rewrap or overwrap purchased poultry to be held longer than two weeks. Commercially wrapped frozen poultry, such as turkey, does not need to be rewrapped.
1. Separate legs from body.
2. Separate drumsticks from thighs.
3. Separate wings from body.
4. Separate back from breast by cutting through skin between the breast and back, splitting the rib cage.
5. If desired, divide the breast in half.
Do not stuff poultry before freezing it. During freezing and thawing, food poisoning bacteria can easily grow in the stuffing. Commercially stuffed frozen poultry is fast frozen under conditions that cannot be duplicated at home.
Fish deteriorates rapidly and should be cleaned and frozen soon after it is caught. If you cannot freeze fish right away, pack it in crushed ice until it can be frozen.
Wash fish in drinking-quality water, and remove scales by scraping fish gently from tail to head with the dull edge of a knife.
Remove entrails after cutting entire length of belly from vent to head. Remove head by cutting above collarbone. Break backbone over edge of cutting board or table.
Remove dorsal fins, the large back fins, by cutting flesh along each side and pulling fin out. Never trim fins off with shears or a knife because bones at the base of fin will be left in fish.
Wash fish thoroughly in cold running water. The fish is now dressed or pan dressed, depending on size. Large fish should be steaked or filleted for easier cooking.
For steaks
Cut fish crosswise into 3/4-inch thick steaks.
To fillet
With a sharp knife, cut down back of fish from tail to head. Then cut down to backbone just above collarbone. Turn knife flat and cut flesh along backbone to tail, allowing knife to run over rib bones. Lift off entire side of fish in one piece, freeing fillet at tail. Turn fish over and cut fillet from other side.
Fish are categorized as either fat or lean fish based on the amount of fat in their flesh. Fat fish includes varieties such as mullet, mackerel, trout, tuna and salmon. Lean fish includes flounder, cod, whiting, redfish, croaker, snapper, grouper, sheepshead and most freshwater fish.
Before freezing, fish need to be pretreated to improve the quality of the stored fish. Fat fish should be dipped for 20 seconds in an ascorbic acid solution made from 2 teaspoons of crystalline ascorbic acid to 1 quart of cold water to decrease rancidity and flavor change. Lean fish may be dipped for 20 seconds in a brine of 1/4 cup salt to 1 quart of cold water to firm the fish and decrease drip loss on thawing.
Fish may be frozen using any of these methods:
Wrap fish in moisture-vapor-proof wrapping using the drugstore wrap method. Place a double piece of freezer paper or wrap between fish in a package to make separation easier.
Place fish in a shallow metal, foil or plastic pan; cover with water; and freeze. To prevent evaporation of the ice, wrap the container in freezer paper after it is frozen.
Ice glaze
Place unwrapped fish in the freezer to freeze. As soon as it is frozen, dip fish in near-freezing ice water. Place fish in the freezer again for a few minutes to harden the glaze. Remove the fish from the freezer, and repeat the glazing until a uniform cover of ice is formed. Wrap the fish in moisture-vapor-proof paper or place in freezer bags.
Roe is even more perishable than the rest of the fish. It should be frozen separately.
Thoroughly wash each set of roe from extremely fresh fish. Pierce the covering in several places with a sterilized needle. Give all roe, whether from lean or fat fish, a 20-second dip in a solution of 2 teaspoons crystalline ascorbic acid dissolved in 1 quart of cold water to lessen the chance of rancidity and flavor change during storage.
Wrap each set of roe in plastic film wrap for easy separation when frozen, smoothing out all air. Pack in flat layers in rigid freezer containers, seal and freeze. Use roe within 3 months.
Rabbit, squirrel and other small game should be skinned, dressed and chilled as soon as possible after shooting. Refrigerate for 24 to 36 hours until meat is no longer rigid. Cut into serving pieces or leave whole, depending on how you intend to use it in meals.
Deer, moose, antelope and other large game can be handled for freezing like any other meat or carcass. Trim and discard bloodshot meat before freezing.
Quail, dove, duck, geese, pheasant and other game birds should be bled, gutted and chilled as soon as possible after shooting. Remove excess fat on wild ducks and geese, as it becomes rancid quickly. Freeze the same as for domestic poultry.
To prevent the growth of spoilage organisms, thaw meat, poultry and fish in the refrigerator (Table 1). Thawing a large roast takes about 4 to 5 hours per pound, whereas small roasts require about 3 hours per pound.
Some meats, such as large roasts, should be at least partially thawed before cooking to prevent them from becoming overdone on the outside before the inside is cooked. Meat, poultry or fish to be floured or breaded before cooking should be partially thawed so the coating will stick to the surface.
Table 1
Poultry refrigerator thawing guide
Most meat, poultry or fish can be cooked frozen if extra cooking time is allowed. Cooking frozen meats takes from 1-1/3 to 1-1/2 times as long as cooking fresh meat, depending on the size of the cut. Quality is similar between thawed meats and frozen meats cooked by the same method and to the same degree of doneness. However, it takes more energy to cook frozen meats.
Useful guidelines for cooking frozen meat
Eggs can be stored for 2 to 3 weeks covered in the refrigerator, so freezing is usually unnecessary. If you have an excess of fresh eggs, however, freezing is the best way to preserve them. They cannot be frozen in the shell because expansion of the white and yolk will cause the shell to break. Hard-cooked eggs cannot be frozen because the white becomes rubbery. The recommended length of freezer storage for frozen eggs is 9 to 12 months.
Select fresh, chilled eggs, and break each separately into a clean saucer. Examine each egg for freshness, and remove any pieces of shell before mixing with other eggs. Freeze eggs in amounts that will be used in recipes. Add sugar or salt in proportions given below according to the kind of recipe in which eggs will be used. For example, add salt to eggs for scrambling and sugar to eggs to be used in desserts. It is necessary to add sugar or salt to whole eggs or yolks before freezing to prevent gumminess.
Stir eggs with a fork to break yolks and mix them well with the whites. Do not whip in air. Add 11/2 teaspoons sugar or 1/2 teaspoon salt for each cup of whole eggs. Package, leave headspace, seal and freeze. Label package with quantity and amount of sugar or salt added.
A convenient method of freezing whole egg mixture is to measure 3 tablespoons of egg mixture into each compartment of a clean ice tray. Freeze until solid. Remove frozen cubes, package in moisture-vapor-proof containers, seal and return to freezer immediately. One cube of the egg mixture equals one whole egg.
Separate eggs. Stir yolks with a fork to break them. Add 2 teaspoons sugar or 1 teaspoon salt for each cup of egg yolks. Package, leave headspace, seal and freeze. Label package with quantity and amount of sugar or salt added.
Strain whites through a sieve. Do not add sugar or salt. Package, leave headspace, seal and freeze without stirring.
Frozen eggs should be thawed in the refrigerator and used within 1 to 2 days. They can be used exactly like freshly broken eggs in baked products, casseroles or egg dishes. Be sure to account for the extra sugar and salt added to the eggs before freezing.
Approximate equivalents for large eggs:
Freeze only high-quality butter made from pasteurized cream. Mold into squares, patties or other desired shapes. Use moisture-vapor-proof freezer wrap or containers to keep butter from absorbing odors and to prevent freezer burn. Butter in its original carton can be overwrapped. One-pound blocks can be cut into smaller portions that can be used in a short time. Wrap tightly in moisture-vapor-proof wrap, label and freeze. Thaw in the refrigerator, and use within a few days.
Processed and natural cheeses such as cheddar, Edam, Gouda, Swiss and brick freeze well.
Frozen cheese has a tendency to dry out and become crumbly, so use in cooking for best results.
Only uncreamed (dry) cottage cheese should be frozen. Creamed cottage cheese is mushy after freezing.
Thaw all forms of cheese in the refrigerator, and use within a few days.
Freeze only pasteurized cream containing at least 40 percent butterfat. Cream can be frozen whipped or unwhipped; however, it often does not whip after being frozen. Freeze dollops of sweetened whipped cream on a baking sheet. When frozen, package in freezer bags. To thaw, place on dessert just before serving.
To freeze liquid cream, heat it to 170 degrees F for 10 to 15 minutes. Add 1/3 cup of sugar for each quart, pour into rigid containers, leave headspace, seal and freeze. Liquid cream that has been frozen is suitable for use in cooking or in coffee. Thaw in refrigerator, and use within a few days.
Commercial ice cream can be stored in the freezer for several months. Cover with plastic wrap or foil after each use to prevent it from drying out or becoming gummy. For longer storage, repackage in moisture-vapor-proof freezer containers or overwrap with freezer bags. See MU Extension publication GH1505, Freezing Home-Prepared Foods, for information on homemade ice cream.
Only pasteurized milk should be frozen. Pour into moisture-vapor-proof containers and leave adequate headspace. During the freezing process, the water in milk rises to the surface and forms ice. This separation affects the flavor and appearance of milk, and it is difficult to thoroughly remix the water and milk solids after thawing. Milk that has been frozen can be used for cooking and baking. Thaw milk in the refrigerator, and use within a few days.
Flavored yogurt freezes better than plain yogurt. When thawed, plain yogurt may taste more acidic. Package in freezer containers, seal and freeze.
These products separate or become mushy after thawing:

Yokogawa power analyzers are playing a key part in tests designed to optimize the efficiency of a new generation of motors for electric vehicles being developed by German drives specialist FEAAM.
The new motors are being developed in cooperation with the Institute for Electrical Drives & Actuators of the Universität der Bundeswehr (University of the Federal Armed Forces) in Neubiberg, near Munich.
The developments are part of a research project to examine ways of increasing the efficiency of induction motors with the aim of challenging two perceived limitations that are hampering the market acceptance of electric cars: namely, the short range and the high purchase price.
The research project is looking at the components of the drive train, and is basing its tests on driving cycles: the same concept that is used in efficiency and emissions tests on internal combustion engines. An important element of this approach is that the results do not depend on the efficiency at maximum load conditions, but on the efficiency at partial load operation.
A promising approach for the optimization of the electric motor efficiency is the concept of asynchronous motors with concentrated windings. Unlike a conventional induction motor with distributed winding, where the coils are wound around multiple lamination teeth, the windings use only a single tooth. Although the technique has been known about for some time, it has not previously been practically applied because of the interfering harmonics that can occur.
In the joint research project, FEAAM and the university team analyzed the magnetic fields in the motor precisely by a combination of simulation and practical experiments. As a result, they were able to devise various measures to suppress unwanted harmonics. The closer these harmonics are to the working wave, the more they can interfere with the motor's operation, causing electrical losses or acoustic noise.
The damping of the harmonics is achieved by a special winding technique in which adjacent tooth coils are wound in opposing directions. With the correct configuration of the number of wires in each coil, the harmonics can be reduced. In the research project, the structure of the coils is first simulated using mathematical models, and the effects are then verified by measurements.
The University's Institute for Electrical Drives & Actuators has several test facilities for electric motors with an output of up to 220 kW and a peak torque of 2,000 Nm. The test benches are designed for four-quadrant operation, and are equipped with high-precision speed and torque-measuring devices, power analyzers, and oscilloscopes. They are used for student projects as well as research and collaborative work with industry.

Elaine passed away peacefully on Christmas Eve with her husband by her side. Her joyful and carefree spirit will be remembered in her favorite expression that everything is "just wonderful".
