Leadership – political, institutional and business – has failed the Caribbean integration process and people over the last decade in the thrust to move from common market to single market and economy and to cope in an unsympathetic global environment.
This became crystal clear to me in 2009. Then, in the throes of the global economic and financial crisis, CARICOM political leaders refused to adopt and advance an innovative and internally driven strategy based on collaboration, Caribbean creativity and innate strengths. They consciously and explicitly decided to go visionless and without a strategy to the international financial institutions to provide them with the solution to the crisis as it was manifesting itself in the region.
That, together with their retreat from the CARICOM Single Market and Economy (CSME), which should have been the strategic bulwark of the region in the global crisis, and increasing public cynical statements by leaders, caused me to fear for the Caribbean. I, however, decided to avoid writing, or commenting, as far as possible, lest I added fodder for the cynicism of the general population.
Three recent pieces of writing have caused me to reconsider. These are:
(i) Bits and pieces from Prime Minister Ralph Gonsalves' letter to CARICOM's secretary general, Ambassador Irwin La Rocque,
(ii) Two articles by veteran Caribbean journalist and long-time integration observer Ricky Singh, and
(iii) The editorial in the Observer of February 29, titled 'CARICOM must be enlarged to survive'.
I fear that these are again laying tracks for debate, apportioning of blame, avoidance of responsibility and action and the further disillusionment of the population, especially the young ones. I have, therefore, decided to break my self-imposed silence to offer a few suggestions for action.
Accountability and agriculture
First, political leaders, at their next opportunity, must make this short declaration, without preamble: "We are all culpable, we are all responsible for the state of the Caribbean economy. We commit to work together to raise the CARICOM economic boat on which we are all adrift."
Second, political and business leaders must recognise that even with the various global crises, there are significant economic opportunities for Brand Caribbean. Important here, are:
CARICOM has a large and unsustainable food-import bill. In addition to this large and growing regional market, there is an insatiable international market for food – especially foods produced under environmentally healthy conditions such as those which still exist in the Caribbean.
Further, unlike the situation which prevailed in the 1980s, 1990s and the first half of the 2000s, when areas such as the Caribbean were discouraged and punished for indulging in food production, the international community is now encouraging and facilitating investment in agricultural production for food and other global benefits such as mitigation of environmental degradation and climate change; the provision of raw material for alternative energy; pharmaceutical and nutraceutical production; and for the achievement of several of the Millennium Development Goals.
Investment in agriculture is a private-sector, not budget-driven, activity. Leaders should agree unequivocally to operationalise the provisions of the Revised Treaty of Chaguaramas. This would give investors in agriculture, agro-industry and allied services rights to the resources and to invest as envisaged by the treaty. Also, agree to immediately reconstitute the group which has been looking at agriculture for the past 10 years or so to include a much larger private-sector component.
Solving energy woes
Energy is critical to international competitiveness. International competitiveness is one of the foundation objectives that differentiates the CSME from the 1973 Common Market. In a region comprising small, closely located economies, international competitiveness can only be achieved and sustained by combining resources.
Leaders must accept that it is against the letter, intent and spirit of the Revised Treaty to use the existence of a natural resource in a particular jurisdiction to create competitive advantage over other members of the CSME.
A priority of the region should be to put in place an appropriately structured technical group to advise on how best to utilise resources such as the sun, sea and airspaces, fisheries, forests, bauxite, oil and natural gas to drive sustainable and balanced development. Balanced development is a fundamental concept in both the 1973 and 2001 versions of the treaty.
Export Services
The CARICOM Secretariat has had in its possession, since January 2011, the final report of a study it commissioned on 'New Export Services'. The study, among other things, recommended five broad areas in which the region can collaborate for immediate, spread and sustained benefits. These benefits would include not just increased income and employment but the stimulation of the region's creativity and entrepreneurial talents, and the linking of the culture, music, athletic and sporting prowess of the young persons, especially in urban areas.
These recommendations require relatively small financial outlays. In any event, the region is not short of financial resources for export promotion. In addition to the resources it expends annually in areas like tourism promotion, it has access to more than €28.1 million from the European Union through Caribbean Export and US$40 million from the Inter-American Development Bank, the Canadian International Develop-ment Agency, and the Department For International Development under the Compete Caribbean Programme. These are two relatively new facilities. The resources should be largely untapped so that governments should agree to direct their use to areas of likely greatest impact.
One of the priority recommendations relates to London 2012. The basis of the recommendation is the serendipitous coincidence of XXX Olympiad, the Special Olympics and the associated Cultural Olympiad; the burst of the Caribbean (through Jamaica) on to the Olympic stage in London in 1948, followed by Helsinki 60 years ago, and the expected excellence of the Caribbean in sprint events in London, based on performances in Beijing and Berlin.
Add to this the 50th anniversary of independence from Britain, of Jamaica and Trinidad and Tobago, and the 40th anniversary of CARIFESTA, together with the large Caribbean diaspora population in the United Kingdom, it creates a one-time opportunity to project all aspects of Caribbean life. The spin-off benefits for creativity, culture, music, cuisine, investment opportunities, export potential, tourist attractions, and Caribbean people in general, would be tremendous.
This would not only create a lasting legacy in the UK but provide the basis for a Caribbean programme at the 2014 football World Cup and 2016 Olympics, both in Brazil.
Three months out from the Olympics, which opens on July 27, there is no Caribbean or even national programme to take advantage of the unique opportunity. It is late. But in the words of the chair of the Cultural Olympiad, "It is never late for a good idea." A strong Caribbean participation was considered by her to be "a good idea".
CARICOM leaders must now resolve to work together and launch a specially selected task force to pull together a rescue programme. Pieces of work have been done and there are individuals who have worked with key persons in the UK who were, up to late 2011, anxious to work with the Caribbean. The task force would have responsibility to coordinate the implementation.
Third, political leaders must complete the implementation of some high-profile outstanding decisions such as the full implementation of the Caribbean Court of Justice (CCJ).
The Caribbean Court of Justice (CCJ) is a financially costless act through which CARICOM leaders can demonstrate their seriousness about Caribbean integration.
In the 50th anniversary of the independence movement in the English-speaking Caribbean, leaders should resolve to make the CCJ their final court of Appeal. Jamaica, with the largest caseload, and Trinidad and Tobago, the seat of the court, should complete the process before the end of the anniversary year.
Fourth, leaders must seek quick resolution or defusing of differences before they become disputes.
The Reverend Wes Hall will confirm that in 1971 when the prime minister of Guyana, Forbes Burnham, decided to ban Gary Sobers from playing cricket in Guyana, the then prime minister of Trinidad and Tobago presented him with airline tickets and a letter of apology, over Sobers' signature, to take to Barbados for Gary to sign and then to Guyana to Prime Minister Burnham. Burnham accepted Sobers' apology; matter resolved.
Few but those directly involved knew about Eric Williams' hand in the resolution.
Fast-forward to today. A misunderstanding between Chris Gayle and the West Indies Cricket Board (WICB) has been left for a year to balloon into a dispute between Jamaica, the Jamaican prime minister and the WICB, with no intervention at leadership level – political business or civil. Leaders must put in place mechanisms to resolve this and be vigilant in the future.
Fifth, political leadership must resolve to appoint institutional leaders based on proven competence and experience; provide them with clear mandates and resources; and hold them responsible. In a time of crisis, a new secretary general has been in office for six months without issuing a statement of vision or direction. This will not instill confidence in a region and an institution under siege.
Byron Blake is a former assistant secretary general of the CARICOM Secretariat.

An Augusta man was robbed of his shoes at gunpoint Wednesday afternoon in the 1700 block of Wrightsboro Road, according to a report filed with the Richmond County Sheriff's Department.
William Daniel told deputies he was walking along Wrightsboro Road about 3 p.m. when a gray Honda Accord with two men inside pulled up beside him.
The driver asked Daniel if he had any money. When Daniel said no, the driver pulled out a gun, pointed it at him and demanded his Fila tennis shoes. Daniel complied, and the suspects drove away.

Car Won't Start Just Clicks
When the car won't start with only clicking noise is heard during starting is usually an indication of problem that involves the battery. Therefore if this kind of problem happens the first thing to be check is the condition of the car battery.
Car Not Starting Only Spinning Sounds Occurs
When a car is not starting and only an occurrence of spinning sound is heard during starting this indicates that there is slipping on the car starting drive. The starter drive is a part inside the starter that is when slipping can caused the car not to start.
Car Won't Start on Wet Conditions
When a car won't start on wet conditions, this indicates problem involving moisture inside a distributor cap. When air humidity becomes high, a condensation occurs and this condensation is the moisture that is presence inside the distributor cap.
Engine Won't Start At High Temperature
An engine that won't start when the temperature is extremely high is an indication of a problem that related with the solenoid. Solenoid is a switch that activates the starter when you turn on the car ignition key, usually the reason why the solenoid do not function as it used to be, is that when it gets extremely hot.
Car Turns Over Slowly on Starting
When starting the car engine it turns over slowly accompanied by a sound similar to a sharp metal to metal sound or grinding and howling sound while the car engine is cranking is an indication of a starter problem, probably the starter is gone bad causing a car that won't start.
Car Turns Over Slowly on Starting – Battery Related
When a car turns over slowly during starting and it won't start, the first thing to check is the battery.
Car Won't Start When Temperature is cold
When a car won't start during a very cold temperature this indicates that the problem has something to do with the car battery, as you may already know a battery is consisting of electrolyte, if this electrolytes freezes up even partially the battery will then losses power that is why during starting the engine wont crank because the power is not enough to start it.
Car Won't Start, Turn Over Slowly at Cold Temperature
If a car won't start the first thing to inspect is the car battery, depending on the additional car problems symptoms you can determine if the battery is really the culprit, same as this case, car won't start only when the temperature is very cold.
Car Turns Over but Won't Start
When your car won't start and it turns over a lot faster than normal when you are trying to start it indicates car problems that have something to do with the timing belt.
Car Won't Start – No Sound Occurs
When this kind of problem occurs the most likely problem is the one involving your car battery. Another possibility but is rarely the cause is a bad solenoid.
Car Won't Start When Car Engine Is Cold
Two possible ways can cause your car engine not starting when the engine is cold, this happens when you have a weak car battery and the other is when you are using heavy, single weight engine oil.
Car Won't Start No Clicking Sound
Diagnosing car won't start: To determine which of the two causes you car not to start, first check if its battery related problem, usually if it's the battery that causes this kind of car problems you can do this kind of test to be sure.

Young Magic is a self-described world collective. The group is based out of New York, but Young Magic's Cargo Collective page notes that the album was recorded all across the world, from Melbourne to Antwerp to Rio Di Janierio. That's a lot of passport stamps and pre-noon whiskey in airport lounges.
The multinational influence is apparent on the record, particularly the utilization of non-western percussion and poly-rhythms. On "Slip Time," the harmonic percussion of a marimba or some other mallet and block instrument underpins a wonky dubstep bass line.
But for all the bi-hemisphere and ocean hopping travel of Young Magic, the core of which consists of Isaac Emmanuel, Michael Italia, and Melati Malay, the sound on Melt is most derivative of recent chill-wave/electronic/looped psychedelia that blossomed on the indie scene after Panda Bear's Person Pitch dropped in 2007. That blossoming of sound has resulted in a garden-variety epithet for a lot of new bands aiming to capitalize on and make use of looped and layered tracks, swelling, ecclesiastical voices and blurred sounds that are the aural equivalent of squinting in the sunlight.
There is, however, a more anxious and sinister quality to Melt than on some of the more blissful or dance-y records from groups like Passion Pit. The aforementioned "Slip Time" is one, or the crunchy "Watch For Our Lights."
But it seems the album's strongest points are the more upbeat tracks like "Jam Karet." The song sports a head-nodding drum/hand-clap track that is a sort of re-interpretation of a 90s boom-bap hip-hop beat. The rote chorus invokes the travels and vagrant attitude of Young Magic, a harmony on the half-sung lines, "all the kids on the road/never coming back." "Jam Karet" has the drowsy pep of a Toro y Moi track.
Melt is a decent debut album that shows Young Magic has potential. But the LP has is its roots in too many recently popular sounds to sound fresh or challenging. The collage effect of looped recordings and found sounds creates a patchwork that's too familiar, we know the pattern and the stitch is being worn thin. Young Magic puts together some really great moments, the album opener "Sparkly," for example, but overall the group falls short of the lofty aim they've set sight on.

Novi_sad: Inhumane Humans
Aside from the recording's suggestive title, the first clue that this new work from Greek composer Thanasis Kaproulias (aka Novi_sad) will be more provocative than usual comes from the fact that it's released as part of Sub Rosa's New Series Framework. Recorded and produced in Athens and Ancient Olympia during the summer of 2008, Inhumane Humans presents two field-recorded soundscapes of dramatically contrasting character, the first a harrowing setting whose thematic focus concerns the Srebrenica genocide and the second a powerful setting assembled from aircraft-associated sounds.
Based on field recordings made in the Ancient Oympia area in Greece, Srebrenica begins as a peaceful portrait of the natural world, dominated as it is by a wealth of cicada chirps and rumbling sounds that issue forth during its initial moments. But five minutes into the twenty-six-minute setting, the mood grows considerably darker when a metallic drone appears, gradually building in strength and volume as it's peppered by blips of Mose Code-like design, abrasive tearing noises, and the violent creak and clatter of barn doors. Just before the halfway mark, a human presence surfaces in the form of a woman's speaking voice and screams (amplifying the unsettling tone of the material even more, the female voice is of a woman who was raped repeatedly while pregnant during the Bosnian civil war and who is recounting her experiences to psychologists). As if to push the nightmare to an entirely new level of intensity, a brutalizing blast of digital noise suddenly appears, burying all other sounds within a cyclonic mass until they're all but inaudible. That wave eventually subsides, allowing the submerged elements to once again reassert themselves though now scarred by the ordeal.
Using aircraft sounds recorded during flights through Canada, Europe, and the United States (or, as Kaproulias wrly notes, Air Canada, Lufthansa, and Delta Airlines were some of the companies who were gently audio hijacked for the piece), Aircraft Noises roars at a loud pitch from its opening moment, with the total sound suggestive of multiple aircraft layers having been melded into a seething, rippling mass. Other sounds filter inthe bleep of a seat-belt signal, the booming transmission of flight safety instructions, and war aircrafts taking off and landing at war airports in Greeceto add more sonic bricks to an already immense wall. The piece remains at that unrelenting pitch for its full thirteen-minute run yet never crosses the line to become harsh and unpleasant. Though by no means easy listening, both works follow clearly delineated, even conventional trajectories in their narrative arcs and consequently hold together despite their combustible character, but even more notably, Novi_sad has created in the piecesSrebrenica especiallysoundscape worlds never before encountered.

text: Originally used as a tech demo during Apple's Worldwide Developer's Conference (WWDC) on June 11, 2007 for the iOS platform, John Carmack and the team at id Software have completed their latest project, RAGE. With titles such as Gears of War 3, Uncharted 3, Modern Warfare 3, Battlefield 3, devouring all of the media's attention this holiday season, RAGE must deliver an experience like no other and prove its value to cash-strapped gamers this holiday season. Does it deliver and deserve a spot in your game collection this year? Read more for my full review of RAGE to find out for yourself. As a survivor of the 2029 Apophis asteroid that strikes Earth, you wake up to find yourself within the Ark, a deep underground bunker. Those who survived this catastrophic event were housed within the Ark as it was intended to protect the future of the human race from the known asteroid, at least that's what you are led to believe. In order to prevent spoiling of the campaign, I will not go into much more detail than that when speaking on the storyline of RAGE, but once you exit the Ark, what you witness is devastating. Earth as we know it has been torn apart by the impact of the Apophis asteroid and when the survivors of the event attempt to rebuild society, you discover that you are not alone. Mutants infest the land and additional human factions demand control of the survivors causing conflicts with the original plan. Throughout the campaign you will have the opportunity to progress through a plethora of experiences ranging from racing challenges to playing cards along with a collection of various mini-games. At its heart RAGE is an open world first-person shooter with a burst of story missions and side missions. During these missions you will be assigned with the task of locating significant characters, killing off a collection of mutants, outracing a racing rival for their upgraded vehicle, and more. The team behind RAGE, id Software, has done a great job of providing gamers with a diverse first-person shooter experience with hours of entertainment implemented. My favorite aspect of RAGE, besides the FPS experience, is the solid implementation of the driving mechanics. While driving will certainly take an active role in the campaign as you travel great distances, the optional races you can take part in are addictively enjoyable. I literally found myself doing nothing but races for a solid 40 minutes and loved every moment of it. In fact, after racing in a wide range of races, I hold no doubt that id Software could crank out a dedicated racing title that would not disappoint. I highly encourage players of RAGE to check out the races and upgrade their vehicles with the collection of race tickets earned by placing in a qualified rank during your performances. Taking roughly eight hours to complete the campaign, I rarely ever found the gameplay to drag on. Sure, I believe the ending to RAGE could have been executed better along with assistance locating specific people, but outside of that, RAGE delivers a solid campaign experience that will have you hooked for a majority of your adventure. As I am sure most of those who have played the final build of RAGE would agree, the visuals delivered throughout the post-apocalyptic adventure is breathtaking. I can easily state that RAGE offers one of the most astonishing visual experiences on consoles today and likely the best of the multiplatform titles currently available. The reasoning for three discs on the Xbox 360 version and an 8gb required install on the PlayStation 3 is easily justified as the graphical fidelity of such a monumental atmosphere is benchmark-worthy. Top all of this off with the fact that it runs at a stable 60 frames-per-second on all platforms and you have a title that will make your eyes water in disbelief. Not only does the campaign offer a collection of gameplay experiences while delivering impressive visuals, RAGE offers one of the best first-person shooter experiences I have ever taken part in. Unlike most shooters on the market today, hit detection is spot on. If you shoot a mutant in the leg, expect the mutant to crawl and do what he can to function with an injured leg. Shoot one in the head, expect a gore-splattering show as the head is decapitated and blood gushes out its neck. Do so in near proximity and you will experience the explosion in the perception of the character as it splatters on the screen. You will also learn early in the campaign that a select few of the devices and items you must use to progress throughout the campaign are not just given to you. Objects such as the RC Bomb Car and EMP Grenades require three items to build and develop these creations. Completed through the game's navigation system, with the click of a button, you will construct these objects which can be used not only for the required missions, but entertainment on the side. These simple implementations add up to one of the best titles I have played this console generation. When it comes to multiplayer, it is evident that id Software's focus was on the singleplayer experience, which is fine when it delivers as it did, but for those who demand online multiplayer gameplay RAGE has you covered. As of its release, RAGE offers two different options for multiplayer gameplay: Combat Rally and Legends of the Wasteland. In Combat Rally, up to four players go up against each other in an arena using the vehicles unlocked throughout the campaign. The goal is to collect as many rally points as possible while fighting off your opponents, which you can steal points from. In Legends of the Wasteland, you and one other player adventure throughout varying missions that are hinted at during the singleplayer campaign. RAGE is not going to deliver an online experience you will find yourself actively engaged in for months on end, but certainly extends the life of the experience. Overall, RAGE delivers an impressive experience that is hard to find in gaming today. Everything from the mind-blowing visuals to the incredible hit detection adds up to another software launch that deserves a spot in your gaming collection. While it would have been nice to see a more developed online multiplayer experience along with minor tweaks such as more direction assistance when finding certain people, id Software certainly does not disappoint and, as of today, currently possesses the title of "Most Underrated Videogame of 2011". Final Score: 9/10 Source

Chalk Ping Pong & Billiards Lounge
Are you up for a game of ping pong? This week South Beach welcomes a new kind of entertainment in to the nightlife scene as Chalk Ping Pong and Billiards Lounge hosts its Grand Opening on Thursday, January 5th at 10pm. The new adult fun-spot has been open since late December, but this week will mark the official opening complete with a private ribbon cutting ceremony starting at 8 p.m (invite only).
Chalk, located in the former Washington Federal Bank, is taking its carbon footprint very seriously. Partners Robert Chalk, Sayra Moto, and Joseph Blount thought of everything to make sure the "Green" concept stayed true throughout the entire design which includes LED lighting, Dyson hand dryers, biodegradable cups, waterless urinals, and emailed receipts.
If you're not up for a game of pool or ping pong, no worries. Kick back and watch one of the many sporting events on one of the 12 LED flat screens. If your'e looking for some fun away from the big clubs, get a group of friends together and reserve a private room, fully loaded with customizable iPhone-controlled sound and cocktail service ordered up via iPad. The 6,600 square feet venue has something to keep everyone entertained.
This "adult rec room" features five Diamond Pro-Am billiard tables (available for $15 per hour, or monthly $50 membership), seven International Table Tennis Federation-approved Cornilleau Ping-Pong tables, and a slew of throw-back table games like Connect 4 and Checkers. It's a completely interactive venue where adults can be kids.
Chalk will be open Wednesday through Saturday from 10pm to 5am and is also available for private events.

FSU Home → Admissions → Freshmen
The University of North Carolina Board of Governors has, since 1988, established minimum course requirements for undergraduate admission. >> Learn More
A first-year student is defined as any applicant who has not taken any college-level coursework after completing high school. Fayetteville State University seeks to admit students whose academic preparation is strong, who desire to succeed, and who are highly motivated academically, professionally, and personally.
In reaching admissions decisions the following information is considered: overall academic performance and grades, rank in class (if available), standardized test scores and, if provided, a writing sample. While letters of recommendation are not required, they provide additional information regarding the applicant's accomplishments. The University's Admissions Office implements the established academic policies and requirements that define the necessary qualifications and credentials for admission.
Applicants for admission to the first-year class will be reviewed on a rolling basis. In addition to meeting the minimum course requirements, applicants must meet the following requirements:
Students who will graduate from a Cooperative Innovative High School or Early College High School in North Carolina and simultaneously earn an associate degree have the choice to apply as either a first-year student or a transfer student. Please carefully review the information below to make your decision.
If you choose to apply as a first-time student, your application will be evaluated comprehensively based on your high school courses and GPA, SAT/ACT scores, and college transcript.
If you choose to apply as a transfer student, your application will be evaluated solely based on your college transcript. After graduation you will submit your final high school transcript, but it will not factor into your admission decision. You may have additional application requirements for your intended major program. We encourage you to contact your department to discuss your options.
Regardless of how you choose to apply, you will be considered a first-time student upon enrollment. This is so that you will remain eligible for housing, scholarships, and other programs that are available to first-time freshmen. The number of transfer credits you have earned will determine your standing as a Freshman, Sophomore, Junior, or Senior.
For more information, please contact us at firstname.lastname@example.com or 910.672.1371.

De Vries was selected as the best goalkeeper playing abroad.
Nottingham Forest certainly had a topsy-turvy season last term. From looking like play-off outsiders under Dougie Freedman to looking over their shoulders at relegation under Paul Williams – inconsistent is the word that springs to mind.
However, one player who consistently performed at a high level was goalkeeper and player of the year Dorus De Vries.
The Dutchman was brilliant throughout the season for Forest and was rightly awarded with their award for best player.
Now his performances have been credited elsewhere.
Dutch website Soccernews.nl has picked their best Dutch players abroad XI for the past season today.
The likes of Lazio's Wesley Hoedt, Southampton's Virgil van Dijk and Spartak Moscow winger Quincy Promes all featured – as did the Forest goalie.
He got the nod ahead of players such as Tottenham's Michel Vorm and Genk's Marco Bizot after his excellent season – although was helped by Vorm, Tim Krul and Maarten Stekelenburg's inactivity this season.
De Vries however has proven that he still has plenty to offer at a Championship level despite being 34-years-old and hopefully he can carry such impressive form into next season.

One of my biggest challenges is cooking grain free meals in a timely manner. I still consider myself new to grain free cooking even though I've been grain free to five months. What's especially difficult is coming home late on a week night, and pulling off a grain free dinner while still having time to grade papers, and take care of all the other little details here at home.
Last Saturday I decided to set the timer on the kitchen stove for two hours and see how much grain free food I could make within that period of time. I didn't wash any dishes, do any laundry, or anything else. My only job was to prepare grain fee meals for two hours straight.
An average grain free meal takes me between 45 minutes to 90 minutes from start to finish. Way too long! I miss the days when an easy night would be grilled chicken a Cesar salad! I was hoping that during my power hours, I'd be able to prepare a few meals for during the week since I had some meetings scheduled.
I began by fixing a salad for the party that I was attending that evening. Even after the lettuce was broken, washed, dried, and the veggies were diced it had only been 15 minutes. I grabbed some shredded cheese, tossed it on top and wrapped that baby in saran wrap. One salad, done!
I set some chicken tenderloins on the stove and cooked them in coconut oil. While the chicken was
cooking I diced some sweet potatoes and lots of onions. Once the chicken was cooked, I cubed the chicken, and began layering the chicken in a casserole dish with the sweet potatoes, chicken, and some steamed broccoli. When I had filled the casserole, I melted some butter in a sauce pan, added ¼ cup maple syrup, some raisins, craisins, cinnamon, and chia seeds. I heated this mixture until all had been coated and the raisins started to puff up from the moisture. I topped the casserole with the delicious maple-butter glaze!
I remembered I had a left over steak from during the week in the fridge. So I took out my slow cooker, cubed up the steak, and threw it in. I added some tomatoes, a can of kidney beans, a can of black beans, some fresh cilantro, some of the chopped onion, lots of chili powder, and some cumin. I set the slow cooker to low and let it cook for about 6 hours.
Earlier I had chopped enough onions for my next recipe, meatloaf. This whole grain free cooking in quantity thing was working out pretty well! I mixed some ground beef, eggs, onions, parsley, and crumbled a few slices of my grain free bread into the mixture. In no time I had grain free meatloaf!
By the time the meatloaf was finished I had about 20 minutes left on the clock. I had no clue that would have any time left. So I gave up, and started cleaning! By the time two hours had passed, I was completely cleaned up and had emptied the dishwasher!
Needless to say, the grain free "power hour" is here to stay!

text: Scott, I agree to a point but since Hap has focused so much time and money in the heavy pushing urs4 I just thought the B5 S4 would be right up his alley and the B5 S4 is a much better handling car than the urs. I will be tracking my Avant next week and will be able to tell more after that but for now its just road feel. You are a small car small HP guy so I am not surprised at your take but I was just wondering about Haps. Anyway, he has a monster in the closet so maybe he doesn't need another :-) Elijah -----Original Message----- From: QSHIPQ at aol.com To: Elijahallen92 at aol.com; CaptMagu at aol.com; t44tqtro at gmail.com; Djdawson2 at aol.com Cc: s-car-list at audifans.com Sent: Fri, 20 Apr 2007 11:26 AM Subject: Re: [s-cars] "The Aluminum Crowd" / Current UrS prices Elijah: After driving the 1.8/2.0 and 2.7tt, I prefer the lighter weight of the 4bangered chassis myself. They also seem to be a lot free-er reving motors. The S4 can take the HP pretty high up the scale, but it really feels heavy to me in spirited driving, much more noticeable at the track. I really think there is good reason for these monster 2.0 motors we are seeing out there. SJ In a message dated 4/19/2007 6:51:26 P.M. Central Standard Time, elijahallen92 at aol.com writes: Hap, I can 't help from asking why you don't just get a 2000 S4? No esp and with a chip you get the same power as you A4 with all that work. I know I know, I as you know love the reliable power of the I5T but having a stage 3+ B5 S4 avant now has made me realize how old these cars are. I love my wife's RS2'd Avant but there is no comparison in the power band. Even with the small RS2 turbo there is way more lag than my hybrid K04 S4. Anyway, just another conversation thread.

UEFA Best Player in Europe Award: Messi, Ronaldo or Casillas
The Argentinean scored a stunning 73 goals as Barca won the Copa del Rey, World Club Cup and both European and Spanish Super Cups.
However, Barca couldn't manage to retain the La Liga title as rivals Real Madrid won the league after three seasons while European Champions Chelsea beat them in the Champions League semi-final.
Despite the failures in two important competitions, Messi believes he and the team can win the titles under new coach Tito Vilanova - Pep Guardiola's successor.
"What Tito Vilanova has done in these two days is exactly what Pep did in his four years. The same hard-working people remain, everything is equal and we start in the same way," Messi told Marca after the start of pre-season training.
Messi insisted that his main objective is not beat the level of scoring goals but to win titles for his side.
"I am not looking to beat my level of goals. This isn't my objective. My objective is to win titles and this for us is fundamental," he said.
The 25-year-old forward and three-time World Player of the Year admitted it will be difficult to match the level of scoring goals but their most important task is to reclaim the title from Real Madrid.
"Every year is difficult. Real Madrid won the league last year and this season will be very difficult. Our objective is to fight until the end. This year we will do the same," he said.
"I try to improve every year. I try to continue my level and continue growing with the team and the players we have. I always try to take advantage of the moment and I hope that this year will be the same and I won't have to lose any game," he added.
Messi hailed his forward partner David Villa who is recovering from a broken shin suffered back in December.
"We don't lack any forward with the players we have got. Villa is recuperating very well and we hope he will return to his best level. He is a very important footballer for us," Messi said.

The composition and chemistry of our atmosphere must be observed, modeled, and predicted in order to understand and mitigate potentially harmful impacts on society and ecosystems. Current satellite instruments provide critical data at low resolution. However, to obtain the more precise data needed to improve models and predictions, a new generation of instruments and observing strategies must be developed.
The suite of sensors aboard GACM will advance understanding of chemical weather processes on regional to global scales and help improve models and predictions of air pollution and ground level ultraviolet radiation. GACM includes a unique combination of passive sensors gathering data on the altitudes and concentrations of key trace gases and aerosols (airborne particles) that are related to ozone formation or that serve as tracers of pollution and airflow. These sensors include a spectrometer in the ultraviolet/visible range that will collect daytime measurements of ozone, nitrogen dioxide, sulfur dioxide, formaldehyde, and aerosols. An infrared spectrometer will sample carbon monoxide through the atmosphere by day and in the mid-troposphere at night, while an advanced microwave spectrometer will sample gases and aerosols in the upper troposphere and lower stratosphere.

Five Concerns When Riding a Bus
Although the bus is generally a convenient means of transportation, it is certainly not without a few challenges. A Greyhound Bus is often the cheapest form of transportation. In addition to learning appropriate behaviors when on Greyhound, the following is a list of five struggles commonly faced when using the bus.
If you are truly in a hurry, need to arrive on time at your destination, or must ride a bus that's always slowed by additional passengers at each bus stop, you are probably familiar with the secret hope that your driver will simply ignore the passengers waiting at each stop. Sharing the bus with other patrons is not necessarily a problem, but in the end, you are on the bus to complete a journey and time to destination is your main concern. Absence of consideration for other bus riders is probably not one sided either; most people would agree they want a smooth transit experience and don't greatly care who is moved around or inconvenienced in the process, as long as it's not them.
Using a busy bus is similar to the old-childhood game of musical chairs. Only with the game on the bus there is no music and the vehicle is in constant motion. With a crowded bus and passengers standing in the aisles, every passenger who enters scans the length of the bus in the faint hope of locating an empty seat before it is spotted and taken by another passenger. Even the most jaded bus rider feels great by identifying a vacant seat that allows them to sit while other patrons are forced to stand for the duration of the trip. Likewise, nothing makes a bus rider more furious than having a seat taken right from under their noses.
Actually getting on to a bus is another adventure in and of itself. The victor is usually the most self centered and not worried about jostling others for position. A packed stop which is full of people means that dozens of individuals will all be competing to get on to the next bus. The moment that bus pulls to a stop, the mass of passengers will begin shoving in an attempt to get onto the bus first. All manner of rude antisocial behavior are typically pardoned by this bizarre bus culture and woe betide the passenger caught unawares. The victors of the sport are rewarded with first pick of the available seats, and it is the loser who is usually left standing.
Losing something on the bus is a kind of twisted treasure hunt in which you must depend upon, or race against, the mass of other people on the bus in locating missing items. Should you notice another coach passenger briefly place something precious on a vacant chair or lose some thing important, you'll spit and look at them like a vulture might a carcass. You secretly wish more people would leave their items behind so you can swipe them once they get off the bus.
You might get caught in the only seat next to the insane guy, loud mobile phone jerk, rowdy children, or a stinky man and fervently wish they had sat next to anyone but you. You may also look upon others' seats with envy. Any seat with additional space such as a window, a seat near the door, or even the seats in the very back of the bus are highly coveted. You obviously have little concern for the additional people on the bus and simply want what is perfect for your bus ride.

"Vanishing" Animals Part of a National Effort to Highlight the Growing Extinction Crisis
Tampa, Fla. (May 15, 2015) — Today, zoos and aquariums across the country are marking the 10th anniversary of Endangered Species Day by highlighting a collaborative effort to save endangered species from extinction. Two local nonprofit conservation organizations, Tampa's Lowry Park Zoo and The Florida Aquarium, will participate by having their endangered African penguins "vanish" from exhibit for a short time to illustrate the growing extinction crisis.
The vanishing African penguins are part of a larger, national effort organized by the Association of Zoos & Aquariums (AZA), of which Tampa's Lowry Park Zoo and The Florida Aquarium are accredited members. Across the country, 229 AZA-accredited members are coming together in a variety of ways to help the public envision a world without these incredible animals. This collective effort is designed to raise awareness of a new initiative known as AZA SAFE (Saving Animals From Extinction).
For decades, AZA-accredited zoos and aquariums have been leaders in species survival, and are already working to restore more than 30 species to healthy wild populations.
In 2015, SAFE will focus on 10 species and then add an additional 10 species each year for the next 10 years. The inaugural 10 species include: African penguins, Asian elephants, black rhinoceros, cheetahs, gorillas, sea turtles, vaquitas, sharks and rays, Western pond turtles and whooping cranes.
Of the inaugural 10 species, Tampa's Lowry Park Zoo houses African penguins, cheetah, stingrays and whooping cranes. The Florida Aquarium houses African penguins, sea turtles, sharks and stingrays.
"AZA aquarium and zoo conservationists have identified more than 100 species facing the greatest threats and where accredited zoos and aquariums have unique conservation and science knowledge to contribute," Jim Maddy, AZA President and CEO, said. "Today, we're demonstrating just how profound the loss would be if we don't take action now to protect wildlife. More importantly, we are also explaining to the public just what AZA-accredited zoos and aquariums are doing to save animals from extinction."
For African penguins, time is running out. In their range country of South Africa, penguin colonies are declining at an alarming rate: more than 60 percent in the past three decades. The dramatic population decline is attributed to a combination of factors: reduced food supply due to commercial fisheries; changes in habitat due to shifting prey populations; and catastrophic events like oil spills. At the current rate, scientists estimate the species may trend toward extinction within 20 years.
Tampa's Lowry Park Zoo opened its African penguin habitat in 2007, with the first chick hatched in 2011. Today, the Zoo maintains the only breeding group of African penguins in the state of Florida, currently home to five breeding pairs and several offspring. At the Zoo, guests are invited to discover the rookery of 14 endangered African penguins, hear daily keeper talks, and see penguin feedings up close. In 2014, the Zoo launched an initiative known as "Protecting African Penguins" to double the size of its penguin nursery to have more room to raise more chicks. Individuals or businesses that wish to contribute to the Protecting African Penguins initiative can visit www.LowryParkZoo.org/Penguins.
The Florida Aquarium's African Black-footed penguins waddled their way to the Aquarium in 2006 and instantly became a guest favorite. The Aquarium offers daily Penguins Backstage Pass tours for guests to meet and learn more about these animals up close and opened a permanent exhibit call Penguin Point in March 2014. The Aquarium actively fund raises for these endangered animals during Penguin Appreciation Week as well as their Penguin Waddle 5K Family Fun Run.
Public Asked to Help Save Animals from Extinction
One of the easiest conservation actions the public can take is to visit an AZA-accredited organization like Tampa's Lowry Park Zooor The Florida Aquarium. Doing so directly supports the collaborative efforts of hundreds of researchers, field conservationists and scientists working to save animals from extinction.
About The Florida Aquarium
The Florida Aquarium is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit institution whose mission is to entertain, educate and inspire stewardship about our natural environment. The Florida Aquarium is home to more than 20,000 aquatic plants and animals representing species from Florida and around the world.
About AZA SAFE: Saving Animals From Extinction
AZA SAFE: Saving Animals From Extinction combines the power of zoo & aquarium visitors with the resources and collective expertise of zoos and aquariums accredited by the Association of Zoos & Aquariums and partners to save animals from extinction. Together we are working on saving the most vulnerable wildlife species from extinction and protecting them for future generations. To learn more, visit AZAsavingspecies.org.

I saw a commercial last night advertising a Windows Phone at AT&T. I wasn't too impressed by the commercial, with the icons of various apps trying to sneak into a meeting and finally getting caught and getting approving smiles from everyone. Once they showed the phone and announced it as the Windows Phone on AT&T, my first thought was that they must be trying to compete with Google's Nexus One, which has until recently been called the Google Phone. My next thought was, why hasn't this been talked about by the mainstream blogs?
I looked it up on AT&T this morning and it was nowhere to be found. I did a couple of searches and then found an Engadget post about a confusing Windows Phone commercial. It turns out that this is just a new commercial from Microsoft, and it is just as confusing as the one Engadget talked about.
I looked up Windows Phone on Microsoft's website and found a much more informative page. Check it out here. There are the basic advertisements you would expect to find, and some decent graphics on the page. There is a clearly marked section to look for phones that support Windows Phone, which is the new name for Windows Mobile. The search was easy to use, and you could choose which options you were looking for, and even the carrier.
So, another mystery solved, thanks to Engadget, whose blog post I should have remembered from October.
Here is the commercial on YouTube. Evidently Microsoft made a version for Verizon too.

New Coach Reset: Cincinnati's Tommy Tuberville
Former Texas Tech coach Tommy Tuberville looks to continue the success of Brian Kelly and Butch Jones in his first year at Cincinnati.
Over the next several weeks, we will be catching up with the coaches preparing for their first season in a new location and/or role. From recruiting to staff moves and personnel decisions, we will take a look at how the first months have gone and preview the 2013 season ahead. First up, Cincinnati coach Tommy Tuberville.
The Hire
Coaching experience: 17 years (130-77 overall), 2004 SEC Championship, five SEC Western Division titles. Most recently head coach at Texas Tech (2010-12)
Reason for the change: After discussions with Purdue and Colorado, former Bearcats' coach Butch Jones opted to accept Tennessee's offer to coach the Vols. Cincinnati athletic director Whit Babcock quickly made an offer to Tuberville, who jumped at the offer for a change of scenery after three up-and-down years at Texas Tech.
The First Months
2013 Recruiting Class Ranking (according to 247 Sports): No. 63 nationally, No. 5 in American Athletic Conference.
Notable Prospects: Keeping a recruiting class together after a coaching change is never easy, so Tuberville tapped into a crop of junior college prospects that he originally intended to bring to Texas Tech. All-purpose back Rodriguez Moore and defensive end Terrell Hartsfield were each ranked in the Top 10 for their position, and weak side defensive end Jerrell Jordan -- Hartsfield's teammate at Copiah-Lincoln C.C. (Wesson, Miss.) -- enrolled after ranking No. 2 in the nation with 13.5 sacks in 2012.
Off-field: The faux-drama regarding Tuberville's hasty exit from Texas Tech ended with a light-hearted dig from Red Raiders fans on National Signing Day. In between faxes from committed recruits with fresh signatures on the Letter of Intent, Tuberville received a menu for the 50 Yard Line Steakhouse in Lubbuck -- the scene of his alleged dine-and-dash the evening before accepting the Cincinnati job. "Yeah, I laughed," Tuberville told SB Nation. "You have to laugh."
Fan reaction: Butch Jones' extended interview process gave Cincinnati fans plenty of time to ready themselves for a coaching change. Tuberville has not faced much hostility from the Bearcats' fans, but the the Riverboat Gambler is not the first coach who comes to mind when thinking of ideal coaching candidates for the state of Ohio. Skepticism can be erased with wins, but fans are hoping to avoid the same "square-peg-round-hole" vibe that surrounded Tuberville's three years at Texas Tech.
Looking ahead
Advantages: Thanks to Kelly and Jones, the Cincinnati program is in the midst of one of the most successful runs in school history. In the last five years, the Bearcats have claimed a share of four conference titles, appeared in two BCS bowl games and recently recorded back-to-back 10-win seasons.
Toughest challenge: While there is plenty of top-rated talent in Cincinnati's backyard, Tuberville must overcome two obstacles to continue the Bearcats' winning ways. While the former Coach of the Year carries plenty of name recognition, Tuberville's strongest ties on the recruiting circuit are in SEC country. Cincinnati will also face plenty of adversity on the trail as opposing coaches will point out that the Bearcats are standing in line outside of the Power 5 conference club. They are in a great position to continue winning conference titles in the American Athletic Conference, but conference realignment has created an uphill battle the former Big East schools -- Cincinnati, Connecticut, South Florida -- will lose their automatic qualifying status when the BCS era ends in 2014.
2013 Outlook: The Bearcats return eight starters on offense, with some impressive depth along the offensive line and two senior quarterbacks, Munchie Legaux and Brendon Kay, with starting experience. Tuberville and offensive coordinator Eddie Gran must determine where both quarterbacks fit in the system, but Bearcats fans will have their eye on 2014; when former Notre Dame quarterback Gunner Kiel is eligible to take the field after an offseason transfer. The Bearcats have been solid on defense the last two seasons, but many of those leaders -- like Dan Giordano, Walter Stewart and Cameron Cheatham -- have graduated. New coaches and a brand new membership makes the AAC tough to predict in 2013, but on paper it looks like Cincinnati should be able to compete for their fifth conference title in six years.

Why a Boxer Dog May Smell
There can be several reasons why a Boxer dog has a bad odor coming from him.
While it may sound too obvious, the top reason is the need for a bath. Most owners know that too many baths can dry out the coat and the skin, so they try to space baths about 3 weeks apart as recommended with proper grooming methods.
However with busy schedules and life simply moving too fast, 3 weeks can easily turn into 4 and 4 can fly by into 5. This coupled with a dog that has intolerance for bath time can lead to a situation where the Boxer puppy or dog is simply not receiving a full body scrubbing as much as needed.
Oils in the coat are accumulating, dirt and debris is being trapped under the fur, ear wax is building up, pollen and dust are collecting all over the body. Tiny bits of feces are stuck to the hairs surrounding the anus. Okay, you have the picture: No matter how busy you are or how much your Boxer dislikes water, baths really do need to be scheduled every 3 weeks.
If you have a puppy, be thankful that you have the opportunity to show your Boxer just what baths are all about and allow a gradual introduction to water in a way that won't instill fear.
Be sure to have all needed supplies right on hand:
Quality canine shampoo
that keeps the skin and coat in good condition, coat conditioner, scrub brush, wash cloth, cotton balls for ears, and a good sized towel.
Be sure to test the water temperature with the inside of your wrist. If your Boxer resists baths, keep the water level as low as possible.
While you may have the urge to finish up as soon as possible, never skimp on the rinsing as this is very important for both skin and coat.
Use a nozzle to rinse down to the skin and if you think you've rinsed all suds out, go over it one more time. Soap residue can block healthy air flow and build up, causing problems and odors.
Allowing the coat to dry well is important as well. Once your Boxer has done the full body shake as per canine instinct, pat the coat with an absorbent towel. Take care to use a small dry cloth to wipe dry the wrinkles and crevices on the face.
If the weather allows it, bring your Boxer out into the warm sunshine to allow for faster drying. A coat that remains damp for too long will begin to smell and even issues such as skin yeast infections can develop.
Another top reason is a wet coat from outside exposure. Even if an owner gives their Boxer regular baths, in between those bath times, body oils, natural secretions and some dirt accumulate.
Add some rain water to that, water that seeps down through the coat…and the result can be a musky, "old coat" smell that can stink up the house.
There's no reason to keep your Boxer puppy or dog inside if it's raining, but it will help to give the coat a good spray of leave-in conditioner and then rub the coat well with a large, absorbent towel.
If your Boxer is soaked, you'll want to take a few minutes to wipe out the ear leathers. And of course, if there's any mud on your dog, it's time for a bath -even if it's not in the schedule.
Additionally, smells and odor can be emanating from the anal glands. If they become compacted and then burst open, the smell can be quite overwhelming. An issue such as this should be checked by the vet, since skin tears can become infected.
If you suspect that the anal glands need expressing and you generally don't do this yourself, definitely make an appointment with the vet or a dog groomer.
Another element to look at is the condition and health of a Boxer dog's skin. Yeast infections or any type of skin infection can cause a nasty smell. Yeast dermatitis can develop on a Boxer dog of any age and at any time, however it will develop more easily if the dog is exposed to hot, humid weather.
Medical conditions and diseases that can cause skin yeast infections with bad odors are hypothyroidism, Cushing's Disease and allergies. Prolonged use of antibiotics and steroid based medication can cause this as well.
Oder, along with any signs of a rash, redness, swelling, cuts, abrasions, sores, bumps, etc. should be brought to the attention of the veterinarian.

Best shampoo for Boxer dogs
Finally, bad breath - if bad enough - can cause a terrible smell to permeate around the whole dog. Daily dental brushings combined with healthy chew snacks and yearly dental checkups (for scrapings) are a must. However, if a Boxer has a bad breath issue, those brushings will not fix an established dental issue.
A cracked or abscessed tooth may be the cause and this most certainly needs to be treated professionally. Left untreated, infection can spread into the bloodstream and there most certainly will be the eventual loss of the tooth which can cause problems with ability to chew properly.
With minor breath issues, offering some healthy snacks to combat smelly bad breath is easy and effective. An example of a healthy treat that works well to clean plague and freshen breath, with healthy toffee extract and one that works via spearmint, parsley and fennel are:
