My job is to create and give training on MacBooks to teachers and students in our school – oh, and I throw some Algebra in there too. Because of the 1-to-1 laptop program that began in our school this year, I have had a MacBook Pro since May and I LOVE IT!
I've been looking at the stats for my blog and it appears that the most popular posts are ones that I've written to show how to use Excel to create your own Genealogy forms. Now that I'm a Mac lover, I'm wondering if anyone would find it helpful to have similar posts using the Mac software?
I told Santa that all I want for Christmas this year is an iPad and I daydream about the different genealogy things I'd love to be able to do with it. My Macbook is not genuinely mine – it belongs to the school – so all Mac related files that I create will be stored on my iPad. I'm curious if others are doing this as well and how that is working for you?
Please give me comments with your thoughts!

Army Pvt. Bradley Manning plans to plead guilty to 10 of the 22 charges against him in the hopes of being allowed to speak in open court and expand upon the political motives that moved him to release the largest document dump of U.S. military and State Department materials in U.S. history.
If allowed to make a statement, it would be his first ever public account of why he leaked sensitive information.
In court filings, he said that he provided classified material to WikiLeaks hoping to "spark a domestic debate on the role of our military and foreign policy in general." He admitted to leaking detailed US war logs from Iraq and Afghanistan, as well as a video showing an American helicopter gunship strike in Baghdad, which WikiLeaks later edited and released, titling it "Collateral Murder."
Prosecutors can choose to reject his guilty plea — which carry a maximum sentence of up to 20 years — and pursue the more serious charges, including allegations that the leaks directly benefitted al-Qaeda, a charge that could lead to life imprisonment, according to the Telegraph.
"It's taking responsibility for the release of WikiLeaks but criticizing the way the government has targeted it… [this] is an alternative way to get his [ideals] into the public record," Nathan Bradley, spokesman for the Bradley Manning Support Group, said. "This is an opportunity for Manning to make the statement that WikiLeaks is a conduit to help the American people."
As The Telegraph reports, despite any statements that Manning may make, they are likely to be ignored as prosecutors have already indicated that are likely to go forward with the trial and press for the more serious charges.

VERGENNES — Vergennes officials' first summer of overseeing the city's Sam Fishman Pool went well, City Manager Mel Hawley told aldermen at their meeting last Tuesday night, and it ended with a surplus of roughly $10,000.
The city accepted ownership of the pool this spring from the Vergennes ID school board, which ceased operations earlier this year per a 2009 vote of city residents. That board owned the land under the pool and the city's other nearby recreation facilities, as well as an adjacent 8-acre parcel of land accessed from New Haven Road by a right-of-way.

HONG KONG (MarketWatch) — Asian stock markets ended broadly higher Wednesday, with the Australian market finishing at its highest level in almost four-and-a-half years, although Japanese shares were hit by a strengthened yen.
Australia's S&P/ASX 200 index XJO, -0.18% rose 0.9% to end the day at 5,003.70 — its best close since Sept. 22, 2008, or a week after Lehman Brothers' bankruptcy filing.
Japan's Nikkei Stock Average NIK, -0.69% which last week reached its highest close since September 2008, finished with a loss of 1% at 11,251.41 on Wednesday. South Korea's Kospi 180721, +0.38% climbed 1.6%, paring its year-to-date losses to 1.1%.
Philippine stocks ended the day 1.1% higher, while India's Sensex 1, +0.33% climbed 0.7% in afternoon trading.
Hong Kong, Taiwanese and mainland Chinese markets were closed for the Lunar New Year holiday.
While trading in Asia weren't at full strength due to the holiday, share markets were grinding higher globally as "positive earnings results enable the bulls to enjoy a little more sunshine," said Matthew Sherwood, investment market research chief at Perpetual Investments.
Aiding sentiment in Asia, the Dow Jones Industrial Average DJIA, +0.10% ended Tuesday trading at a level not seen in more than five years. Read: Obama seeks to break free of budget fight.
Earnings Down Under
Corporate earnings helped the Australian market to gain on Wednesday, as shares of banking giant Commonwealth Bank of Australia CBA, -0.26% CBAUF, -0.73% rose to a record 67.38 Australian dollars ($69.41) early in the session, before settling back to A$67.11 for a 2.4% advance.
The gains came after the bank reported a 6% increase in adjusted profit — with the figure exceeding analysts' expectations — and raised its interim dividend. Read: Commonwealth Bank first-half profit rises 1%.
Other Australian companies updating investors on earnings included engineering firm Leighton Holdings Ltd AU:LEI LGTHY, +0.00% which surged 11.2% after reporting a return to profit in 2012.
"The pendulum is swinging to earnings," Sherwood said, speaking about the Australian market. "Earnings growth has to come through, or the market is going to top out."
During the Asian session, U.S. President Barack Obama made his highly-anticipated State of the Union address, during which he said the U.S. would start talks on a potential free-trade deal with the European Union. Read: Obama seeks to break free of budget fight.
Sherwood said that such a deal marked a "long-awaited" effort to enhance trade links between the two largest economic regions in the world.
"Moves by politicians to increase the level of overall trade is a win-win situation" in general, he said, adding that the deal may work to benefit to the global economy.
Tokyo heads lower
Meanwhile, earnings reports also moved some shares in Japan, with Pioneer Corp. JP:6773 US:PNCOF falling 10.7% after saying it plans to cut jobs and now expects to post a full-fiscal-year loss. Read: Pioneer expects net loss, plans to cut 800 jobs.
Shares of Olympus Corp. 7733, -1.96% OCPNF, -73.79% dropped 2.7% after the technology firm posted a narrower quarterly loss, but trimmed its own full-year forecast due to weak camera sales.
Electric utility Tokyo Electric Power Co. 9501, -1.82% TKECY, -5.69% fell 8.5% after announcing late Tuesday that it will open up bidding to build fossil-fired power plants. Rival Kansai Electric Power Co. 9503, -1.17% KAEPY, +5.45% dropped 4.2%.
Uncertainty over currency moves worked to depress share prices for some forex-sensitive firms in Japan after the yen USDJPY, +0.14% moved higher overnight.

At the same time, South Korean exporters — which can benefit if Japanese rivals lose competitiveness from a rising yen — booked some gains. Read: Yen's boon to Japan needn't be South Korea's bane.
Kia Motors Corp. 000270, -1.75% KIMTF, +0.00% rose 3.9%, and affiliate Hyundai Motor Co. 005380, -3.62% HYMTF, -23.30% advanced 2.4% in the auto sector.

Central American governments are doing a good job of strengthening their social safety nets, but need to sharpen their focus on child nutrition, a new study by WFP reported this month. Here is a breakdown of the study's findings and recommendations.
PANAMA – A new study published this month by an international team of experts recommended that nine countries in Central American and the Caribbean make child nutrition a greater focus of the "social safety nets" for poor and marginalized communities.
Entitled the Nutritional Dimension of the Social Safety Nets in Central America and the Dominican Republic, the report brought together a wide array of experts from WFP, local governments, NGOs, the World Bank, the Organisation of American States (OAS) and the Central American Integration System (CAIS).
Download the summary
Nutritional Dimension of the Social Safety Nets in Central America and the Dominican Republic
The study analysed 110 programmes in eight countries: Belize, Guatemala, El Salvador, Honduras, Nicaragua, Costa Rica Panama and the Dominican Republic
29 of the programmes focused on mother-child nutrition, 20 on people living with HIV, 14 on conditional cash transfers and 12 simple food based programmes.
- The study found that most programmes work in isolation from each other, with different approaches and objectives which hampers coordination and effectiveness.
- Many of the programmes are missing a nutritional dimension. For example, the fight against poverty is the main objective of conditional cash transfer schemes, but only 13% of them included nutritional goals.
- Very few of the programmes focus on high-risk demographics such as children under two (one percent), indigenous populations (11 percent) and afro-descendants (5 percent).
- Only six percent of the analysed programmes have carried out rigorous evaluations of their nutritional impact and made their findings known.
- The number of staffed trained and prepared on nutrition is very limited. Training options for nutrition are also on short supply.
- Only one in every five programmes (21 percent) is funded by the governments alone. The rest depend on international cooperation, loans or donations.
- Social welfare programmes should incorporate a nutritional dimension in order to effectively reduce hunger and malnutrition.
- Governments should gradually increase public investment in these programmes in order to ensure sustainability. At present, social investment in nutrition in the region is less than 1 percent, according to the Economic Commission for Latin America and the Caribbean (ECLAC).
- Governments should strengthen coordination between programmes and provide them with assistance in incorporating nutrition.
- Programmes should do a better job of targeting high-priority groups, such as children under two years, pregnant women, indigenous peoples, Afro-descendents and people with HIV

Excepts from: Mrs. Child. The American Frugal Housewife, Dedicated To Those Who Are Not Afraid Of Economy. New York: Samuel S. & William Wood, 1841. Print. I love this book and highly recommend it for further reading.
APPLE WATER. This is given as sustenance when the stomach is too weak to bear broth, &c. It may be made thus, - Pour boiling water on roasted apples; let them stand three hours, then strain and sweeten lightly: - Or it may be made thus, - Peel and slice tart apples, add some sugar and lemon-peel; then pour some boiling water over the whole, and let it stand covered by the fire, more than an hour. p 32
CURING HAM. The old-fashioned way for curing hams is to rub them with salt very thoroughly, and let them lay twenty-four hours. To each ham allow two ounces of salt-petre, one quart of common salt and one quart of molasses. First baste them with molasses; next rub in the salt-petre; and, last of all, the common salt. They must be carefull turned and rubbed every day for six weeks; then hang them in a chimney, or smoke-house, four weeks. They should be well covered up in paper bags, and put in a chest, or barrel, with layers of ashes, or charcoal, between. p 41
INDIAN CAKE. Indian cake, or bannock, is sweet and cheap food. One quart of sifted meal, two great spoonfuls of molasses, two tea-spoonfuls of salt, a bit of shortening half as big as a hen's egg, stirred together; make it pretty moist with scadling water, put it into a well greased pan, smooth over the surface with a spoon, and bake it brown on both sides, before a quick fire. A little stewed pumpkin, scalded with the meal, improves the cake. Bannock split and dipped in butter makes very nice toast. p 75
Rise early, Eat simple food. Take plenty of exercise. Never fear a little fatigue. p 87

Employees Give Back During Holiday Season
KANSAS CITY, Mo. (Dec. 21, 2012) – This holiday season, Dairy Farmers of America employees have demonstrated the Cooperative's core value of community by reaching out to those in need. Through a wide range of events across the nation, employees donated money, clothing, food and gifts to a variety of local and national organizations.
The nationwide effort allowed Cooperative employees to participate in diverse and creative ways:
• Employees at DFA's Medina, Ohio, office collected food, toiletries and clothing items for Haven of Rest Ministries, an organization that serves the homeless throughout Northeast Ohio by providing meals, shelter and clothing.
• Embracing the theme "Give unto Udders," employees in the Northeast Area, along with Dairylea, a member cooperative of DFA, and Dairy Marketing Services, participated in a raffle and dress down day to raise a total of $17,140 for the United Way. Additionally, they donated $2,600 to the Rescue Mission in Syracuse, N.Y., and hosted a food drive to collect nearly 40 bags of food for the Salvation Army. Employees also sponsored 50 families with an Angel Tree.
• Southeast Area employees at the Knoxville, Tenn., office raised $3,700 for the Second Harvest Food Bank of East Tennessee. They donated clothing, canned goods and toys with a barrel drive and held a soup and chili day to gather monetary donations.
• The Grapevine, Texas, office had a Festive Holiday Sweater Day, which raised $200 for Toys for Tots. Employees could pay $10 to participate by wearing jeans and a holiday sweater to work.
• Western Area employees collected coats for the Salvation Army's annual Coats for Kids drive. Additionally, employees at the Hughson, Calif., plant had a food and toy drive for the local community and donated butter to the local high school for holiday baking.
• Kansas City employees representing DFA's Central Area and headquarters office participated in a variety of events including a jeans day, bake sale, soup luncheon and chili cook-off to raise $3,400 for two local charities: Synergy Services, Inc., which assists women and children who are victims of abuse, and Hillcrest Transitional Housing, an organization that helps homeless families become self-supportive. Additionally, 260 gifts and nine boxes of personal care and hygiene items were donated to these organizations through the annual DFA Angel Tree gift drive.
Community outreach programs such as the holiday giving campaign are a key focus area for the DFA Cares Foundation, which has operated since 2005 as a nonprofit charitable organization assisting DFA members and others in the communities DFA serves. The foundation also provides disaster relief and a scholarship program for students pursuing careers in dairy.
Those interested in donating to the DFA Cares Foundation can now make online donations, and have the option to designate their gift in honor of loved ones. For more information, visit www.dfamilk.com/dfacares.

NEWS- More opportunities: Paramount loses Rucker
Less than a year ago, after a national search that produced 71 candidates, the Paramount Theater heralded new executive director Edward I. Rucker, a Charlottesville resident, as a man of "vision, enthusiasm, and experience." The best person for the job was "right here," Paramount chair Gary Taylor said at a July 19, 2007, press conference introducing Rucker.
Well, Rucker's not there anymore. He resigned May 2, Taylor confirms, less than 10 months after his arrival. His departure after two weeks' notice creates a powerful sense of deja vu. Less than two years ago, in September 2006, the Paramount's original executive director, Chad Hershner, who oversaw the 1931 theater's nearly $16 million renovation and 2004 reopening, also suddenly resigned. Hershner, who resurfaced as vice president of advancement at the Fox Cities Performing Arts Center in Appleton, Wisconsin, did not immediately return the Hook's call.
Like Hershner's, Rucker's resignation "was definitely unexpected," says Taylor, who won't comment on the reasons for Rucker's departure other than to offer the vague assertion that Rucker wished to "pursue other opportunities"– an explanation ubiquitous with mysterious resignations.
Rucker-– a Charlottesville resident since 1988-– served as President and CEO of the Richmond Forum, a nonprofit that charges Richmonders big-ticket prices to hear heads of state and other high-profile speakers. Rucker long maintained homes in Richmond and Charlottesville where, from the late 1980s, he served on the boards of Second Street Gallery and the Piedmont Council for the Arts. Before joining the Forum, Rucker was director of development and government relations at the Virginia Foundation for the Humanities. In November, the Piedmont Council of the Arts honored him with its 2007 Arts Award in the Organization category on behalf of The Paramount Theater.
Neither the Paramount nor Richmond Forum could provide contact information for Rucker, whose number is unlisted. However, the Hook discovered him gardening at his house off Rugby Road May 7, and he graciously accepted our request for an interview.
"One year was pretty exhausting," Rucker says, citing his six-day work weeks and grueling hours– sometimes from 9am until late into the evening on nights of a performance. Long hours aren't the only reason running the Paramount is no easy gig, he says, listing the multiple constituencies the executive director must serve: media, staff, board, board committees, donors and, of course, the artists who perform, who have included Tony Bennett, Yo Yo Ma, and Ricky Skaggs over the past four years.
Charlottesville has also changed since the Paramount first re-lit its marquee in 2004 as the newest, and arguably grandest venue in town. Then came John Paul Jones Arena and the Pavilion, making it tough for ticket buyers to choose– and pay for– the slew of national acts offered throughout the year.
"There are challenges and pressure in the economy," admits Rucker.
Rucker says he's proud of the accomplishments during his single-season tenure, mentioning successful fundraising, strengthening partnerships, and cutting operating expenses. But remaining for a second season didn't appeal to him. "My career interests are moving in other directions," he says, citing a wish to focus on "education administration and development."
As Rucker ponders his future career options, Taylor says the Paramount board has not begun a search for a new director but is instead "talking with a couple of national consulting firms that specialize in helping arts organizations just like us to find the right leadership and the right model for what is a very unique community."
Taylor thanks the Paramount's staff of 14 full-timers for jumping in with little warning to fill Rucker's shoes.
"The transition of his departure has gone exceptionally smoothly," says Taylor. "We haven't missed a beat."
Rucker, who plans to remain in Charlottesville, says if the organization does miss a beat, he'll be glad to help out in some way.
"I've pledged to respond," he says, "if they call."

Artisan Software Tools has announced the first technology solution to emerge from the European Union's Framework7 SATURN project -- a UML/SysML-based hardware/software co-design environment based on Artisan Studio.
Developed in conjunction with the University of Paderborn (Germany), the UML/SysML-based hardware/software co-design solution utilizes an enhanced SysML profile linked to a SystemC code generator for Artisan Studio. This generates executable SystemC which is then translated into VHDL for execution in an FPGA. The generated code can also be used to simulate systems in the Artisan EXITE ACE environment, including hardware simulation. This co-design and code generation solution has been fully evaluated using two complex, industrial proof-of-concept cases studies -- a smart camera system and an outdoor broadband wireless telecommunications system. These initial case studies resulted in 56% and 58% automatic code generation respectively, with the simulation behaving as the final FPGA implementation.
"By bridging the gap between modeling, verification and synthesis, of hardware and software in UML/SysML-based designs, SATURN will demonstrate a significant reduction in time-to-market for embedded systems," said Paul Whiston, Project Manager for Artisan Software Tools. "This is being delivered through the combination of SysML and MARTE as a platform to integrate these models with a run-time environment for cross-domain verification as well as the automatic generation of both hardware (SystemC) and embedded software (C/C++) components. The integration of these different abstraction layers will allow seamless integration at functional and target architecture levels. At this mid-point in the project we have delivered an initial version of the complete tool chain, from design to implementation on the target hardware with optional simulation."
This first phase of the project concentrated on hardware (FPGA) modeling. In the next phase, the environment will be expanded to offer target processor simulation for software and the simulation of the SystemC in the EXITE ACE environment. The project will also use the MARTE profile for Formal System Design (ForSyDE), and develop a HetSC profile in conjunction with the University of Cantabria which will aid formal verification of developed systems. This will be evaluated using proof-of-concept case studies and is expected later in 2010.
Started in January 2008, the SATURN (SysML bAsed modeling, architecTUre exploRation, simulation and syNthesis for complex embedded systems) project is a European Union 7th Framework Program initiative. SATURN's objective is to bridge the current gap between modeling and verification/synthesis in UML/SysML-based embedded systems designs that are equally composed of hardware and software. To do this, the OMG's UML profile for MARTE is being evaluated for its complementary application with SysML, and significantly improved adding formal semantics of different Models of Computation for integrated modeling and verification environments. The project will cost 3.75M to execute across all partners with a contribution from the EU of 2.45M.

Like it, but not crazy about it anymore
By MG on Wednesday, May 15, 2019I own the basic trim, and honestly my main disappointment is gas millage. Also the engine is kind of loud and Toyota didn't add any type of sound proof material under the hood. I'm happy with the drive assistant system but Entune is a joke, really doesn't work good with an Android. My other concern is that for the money I paid, I know I could have bought another good SUV with extra styling details (rims included etc.) & a better guarantee. But well, I fell for Toyota's reputation.

We love this car!
By Dylan on Friday, May 03, 2019We could not be happier with our xse. The blueprint color is awesome, and the interior materials have a real luxury feel. The only onow I have is entune 3.0. The connection to a Galaxy S10 phone is extremely slow, and full of glitches. If you have an iPhone and want to plug it in for CarPlay, that's a much better experience. The acceleration is great, and performs much better than the standard rav4, which we had for a week waiting for our hybrid to arrive. One note though, it makes a quite loud noise when reversing under battery power, though we are given to understand this is designed to stop after 5000 miles. Perhaps a safety warning noise for people around you?

Rav4 LE Hybrid delivers on performance and style
By JohnnyD on Saturday, May 25, 2019While I would have enjoyed one of the higher trim models, Toyotas come at a premium price, so the LE is what I could afford. That's not to say the LE is a stripped vehicle. It comes with plenty of standard features to keep you happy, certainly everything you need to travel comfortably and safely down the highway. It's just that the interior looks a little spartan at this trim level. It's like the fabrics and textures chosen, blend a bit too well. Nothing pulls your focus or excites your senses. It is a comfortable place to spend even long hours of travel however. Where the Rav4 shines in my opinion, is when you step on the gas. It delivers very impressive acceleration at any speed, while maintaining impressive fuel economy. I enjoy the solid feel and good handling, especially on curvy wet roads. The ride is very smooth but never floaty or loose. The AWD does it's job without a hiccup. Even though I drive the base model, people really notice this car. Several have actually asked to take a look inside and spent some time walking around it. If my base model LE, albeit bland, gets this kind of attention, I can only imagine the looks the high end models get. All in all the Rav4 offers good looks, excellent performance and handling, bullet proof reliability and value that's tough to beat.

From perch to rock to sea trout — this lure will get them when others won't
Temperatures were in the mid-50s, the tide was close to slack and a light wind was out of the southwest at the Chesapeake Bay Bridge. Hoping for a good score on the white perch that had been gathering there the last two weeks, we were armed with medium-weight jigging rods and two-ounce Bernie's Bomber Rigs.
Marking a nice school, we dropped our lures down to the bottom some 45 feet below and started the yo-yo action that we hoped would draw some strikes from our favorite frying fish, wintertime white perch. We didn't have long to wait.
My buddy's rod arced over hard. Easing the fish up from the depths was not an easy task. "Either this is another schoolie rockfish causing trouble or a really big perch. I want the net," he said.
"It's right behind you," I answered.
Then my rod bent over.
"Whoa!" my friend said as a monster perch came into view.
Slipping the net under the beefy, black-back, he brought it into the boat.
"I just hope this turns out to be a perch, too," I said as I struggled with my own hookup.
In a half-dozen drifts, we found second- and third-year rockfish in far more abundance than white perch. Hooking up with these throwbacks became a nuisance. But all that ended right then.
My friend's white perch measured 12 and a half inches and was winter fat. Mine was right close behind at 12 inches and just as porky. Those two fish would remain the best of the day, but thick nine- and 10-inch blackbacks were frequent in the mix. A 20-inch rockfish made a welcome late appearance.
We fished the rig by drifting, dropping it down and yo-yo-ing the jig off the hard shell and rocky bottom. Keeping it as close to vertical as possible to avoid snags. The heavier metal jig does catch fish, but we found that the small dropper attracts most of the attention.
This setup is not exclusively for white perch. It will take rockfish, redfish and bluefish and is particularly deadly on sea trout — when they are around.
Quite a number of other fishing boats were working the area, but most seemed to be missing the bite. They weren't using Bernie's Bombers.
The Bomber
The Bomber rig is a vertical jigging setup developed years ago by Capt. Bernie Michael. Essentially, it is a two-ounce in-line sinker painted white, chartreuse or yellow attached by a split ring to a feathered hook. That's tied up on an 18-inch leader with a feather or hair-dropper fly or light jig tied about 12 inches above the heavier lure.
Capt. Bernie passed away quite a few years ago, but George Bentz, a retired charter boat skipper and the long-time president of Pasadena Sportfishing Group (pasadenasportfishing.com) is a high-quality lure maker who ties his own improved version of the Bomber Rig. Call him if you visit so he can be sure to have a few on hand (410-439-3474). Local sport stores carry versions of the Bomber Rigs as well as the materials to create them yourself.
Tie your own by substituting a one-and-one-half to two-ounce Stingsilver or similar metal jig (or painting in-line sinkers) on 18 inches of 30- to 50-pound mono. Add a small fly or jig near the top.
Making and storing a half-dozen or so of these rigs in small two-by-three-inch plastic zipper bags can keep fishing in your thoughts on bad weather days. You'll be happy you made several because you can go through more than a few Bombers when the fishing is hot and the bottom is rocky, especially around the Bay Bridge.

Please Welcome Our Latest Advertiser, the 'Independent White Center PAC'
[EDITOR'S NOTE: The following "Blogvertorial" post is a paid political Advertisement. The views and opinions expressed within are not necessarily those of South King Media.]
Please welcome our latest Advertiser – the Independent White Center PAC, a group of citizens that are against Burien's annexation of the rest of White Center/North Highline.
As we do with all our paid Advertisers, we're giving them a forum to share their message:
Hello Area Y/North Highline/White Center Neighbors and Voters,
You have probably seen our signs around town by now. We would like to take this opportunity to introduce our group to you.
Independent White Center PAC is registered with the State of Washington and is a group of concerned citizens from Area Y/North Highline/White Center, Seattle and Burien. We strongly believe that annexation of Area Y/North Highline/White Center to Burien is not in the best interest of the residents of Area Y/North Highline/White Center or the residents of Burien.
By voting against annexation, we will get to keep:
- our residences and businesses in King County-as they currently are. There is no State law that mandates we have to join a city. If we do not annex, we will not be immediately forced to annex to a city we do not want to join,
- the same police, fire, school, utilities and library services that we currently have,
- our White Center Chamber of Commerce and the same funding sources that our White Center Community Development Association (WCCDA) relies upon,
- the same human services that we currently have for our seniors, job services, refugee services, legal services and housing services, and,
- the same King County Animal Control Services.
If we vote against annexation, we will not have to worry about new:
- city levied, residential property taxes, business taxes, utility fees, franchise fees, permit fees or ordinances,
- changes in zoning or land use regulations on our property,
- regulations on our businesses such as signage and some of our businesses will not be forced to close, and,
- regulations on how many cars can be parked in front of our residences/businesses and rules about whether vehicles can be parked on grass or dirt. We will not be required to get permits to trim our trees or to have city parking tickets imposed on us.
Annexation to Burien will add seven new taxes and fees upon us, if we become part of their city. While Burien has claimed that this will only cost us $140 or maybe $155 new dollars in taxes, these estimates are not correct. The new taxes and fees that Burien will levy on us will actually cost us over $400 for residential citizens and thousands for businesses. Our taxes will increase with Burien and we will lose a number of the services that we currently have with King County. Burien = More Taxes and Less Services.
The Fire Department #2 has stated that it does not have the money to support the service needs of Area Y/White Center/North Highline, if this annexation occurs. They will require an additional $2.5 million in order to provide services that are needed on the day annexation takes place. This means that we will have to pay new taxes to the Fire Department to keep it in compliance with the law-a new fire levy will be added to our tax bills.
Currently, Burien is experiencing serious financial problems and is short money to balance its budget-Burien Finance Director's and Burien City Manager's reports, October, 2012.
In ten years, Burien will have at least a -25% financial deficit- 2011Berk Report, pages B-3 to B-5. It is not in our best interest to join a city that is going broke and cannot provide us with the services that we need or has no resources to address the $77 million deficit of our infrastructure needs (roads, sidewalks, storm water problems, drainage problems, water quality problems, etc.).
This annexation will not improve the lives of either Area Y/North Highline/White Center citizens or Burien citizens. The Independent White Center PAC urges a vote against annexation. Let's maintain our White Center/Area Y independence. Please vote on Nov. 6, 2012, against annexation to Burien.

Hi Hungry Girl, I need ideas for guilt-free snacks that are quick 'n cheap and can be eaten at my desk. I work long hours at a computer, and I'm always munching on something. Please help! On-a-Budget Desk Snacker
Hi Desk Snacker,
I've got tons of desk-friendly snack options that'll satisfy you without breaking the money bank or the calorie bank...
DIY 100-Calorie Packs - Portion control is a lifesaver when it comes to mindless munching, but those pre-packaged 100-calorie snacks can be pricey. Luckily, it's super-easy to make your own packs at home -- just divvy up large bags of the items you crave (chips, pretzels, nuts, etc.) into small plastic baggies or containers. Here's a handy guide to get you started -- there's even a few mini recipes!
Seasonal Fruits & Veggies - One of the best ways to save money is to buy produce when it's in season. Mangoes, strawberries, and cherries are all in season right now. Carrots and cucumbers are pretty much in abundance all year, but this is their peak season, and they're perfect for munching on. Save money by buying them whole and slicing 'em yourself (as opposed to getting pre-cut produce).
Shelf-Stable Protein - Don't let the shelf-stable thing scare you. There are lots of delicious, filling, protein-packed snacks that don't need any refrigeration. Grab some pouched albacore tuna or salmon in water next time you're at the grocery store -- no draining needed, so it's less messy than the canned stuff. Then pile it onto rice cakes (lots of stores have generic versions that are cheaper than brand names), or serve with a quartered bell pepper (use the pieces for scooping). Jerky is another good choice -- it's usually low in fat and calories, and there are many varieties to choose from, so you won't get bored.
Stock Up During Sales and Buy in Bulk - In addition to store discounts, look for online deals. Amazon's grocery section often has great specials on items like those tuna and salmon pouches, rice cakes, and jerky. And once you find a few snacks you love, it pays to buy a bunch at a time.
Happy snacking!
Hey HG, I watch your show on TV and am obsessed with your kitchen! The storage containers, colorful knives, mini blender, that fridge... Fill me in! Where can I get everything? Kitchen Envy
Hi Kitchen Envy,
I love that kitchen too! There's a lot of my personality in there, from the retro colors to the fun knickknacks. Here's the 411... Let's start with the kitchen basics. So many people have written in asking about the snazzy pop-top storage containers on the show. Not only do they have little push-down/pop-up buttons that create airtight seals, but also they're stackable! They're made by OXO -- you can find them in stores like Target, or order them online. The measuring spoons and cups come from the same brand. The colorful Komachi knives are made by a company called Kai -- they're available online (Amazon has great prices) and in stores like Bed Bath & Beyond. They're super-sharp and work great. When it comes to blending, the big pink blender you've seen on TV is from Cuisinart -- that brand makes a ton of adorable pink appliances. The mini blender I use on the show -- the Magic Bullet Platinum Pro -- has been discontinued, but you can still find it on Amazon. That thing is AMAZING. Now for the big-ticket items... The colorful retro stove and fridge came from Big Chill (in a custom pink color). And the giant gummy bears lining the kitchen shelves are made by Jellio -- you can get them here! Hope I've spilled enough secrets to satisfy your curiosity (and stock your kitchen!). Enjoy!
Today, May 30th, is National Mint Julep Day. A mint julep is a cocktail made with mint leaves, bourbon, and sugar. For an HG-ified take (if you're of the legal drinking age, of course), swap out that sugar for no-calorie sweetener, like Splenda or Truvia!
Have a question for Hungry Girl? Send it in! She answers new Qs each week (but cannot respond to emails personally).

assuming someone was desperate enough to actually purchase an ipod from said vending machine, i can only imagine the wrath the machine would incur if it were to do a classic "attempt to dispense product but product doesn't quite fall out" ...
think they'd call the TSA in?
You just wish you were cool enough to live in DFW.
I saw that (there's one inside security, I think Terminal A), and think I'd be PO'd if I got one and the battery was dead.
This is Guilty parent bait, essentially.
Does it sell Apple Care too?ReplyDelete
I see these machines all the time in the Macys (here in the Seattle area). I've never seen them used but they sure look cool.ReplyDelete
I've seen these machines a lot in airports. I want to say Atlanta has them, and I fly through Atlanta a lot. What I don't get is that it's presumably geared at people who are in a lay over, was bored on their previous flight, and wants desperately to be like their neighbor, blissfully tuned out with the white ear buds.
But, it's not like the iPod comes with anything on it. So you can enjoy playing brick on your ipod and stroking it's shiny silver back, and that's about it, on your next flight.
I saw one in Ohare, I think. Except it was all electronics- Ipod, camera, video cam, etc...ReplyDelete
We can see Vending machines everywhere in a market that are dispensing snacks, cold drinks, newspapers, chocolates etc.Miami Vending Machines can be considered to be an effective way of earning money as well as saving money.these machines are one time investment. If looked upon carefully these machines can work for years without asking for any repair or replacement. This can be also be a very good option why to go for vending machines.ReplyDelete
A lot of vending machines which provide snacks, cold drinks, chips and candy can be seen a lot in our surroundings these days. This is the most popular category of vending machines. Especially kids love these vending machines. Palm Beach Vending Machines have all sorts of vending machines. The vending provided by them are of good quality, long lasting and efficient.ReplyDelete

Oklahoma Christian University Undergraduate Research
Undergraduate research is an important component in the education of today's college students, particularly those in the fields of biology, chemistry, biochemistry, forensic science, and physics. Oklahoma Christian University (OC) excels in offering students the opportunity to do original research under the direction of professors at OC or at other institutions such as Oklahoma University, Oklahoma State University, Oklahoma University Health Sciences Center and Oklahoma Medical Research Foundation
Biomedical Research
Although there are a variety of ways for undergraduate students to find biomedical research opportunities, OC facilitates this process through two formal academic offerings. The first is a one-hour course called Introduction to Research (BIOL-4411), which introduces students to the research environment. Our faculty meets with students initially to find their research interests and then we match the student with the mentor that is bested suited for them. These mentors may be departmental faculty or faculty at other area-wide institutions. Students spend one morning or afternoon per week in their assigned laboratory learning about the project, reading primary journal articles, and getting hands-on experience with the tools and techniques of that particular laboratory. Students wishing to work in a laboratory at OUHSC or OMRF conducting bio-medical research must have completed a year of general chemistry (CHEM-1115 and CHEM-1215), one semester of organic chemistry (CHEM-3115) and one semester of cellular biology (BIOL-2114).
The second academic offering is a three hour course called Undergraduate Research (BIOL-4412/4414) or Research Methods (CHEM-4611) or Independent Study in Chemistry (CHEM-4900). In this course, students actually work on an original research project under the supervision of the mentor. Many students remain in the same laboratory in which they completed the Introduction to Research course. This course can be taken during the fall or spring semester, but most students do this over an 8-10 week period in the summer when they can work full-time on the project. Most mentors provide a salary for summer students. There are other opportunities for students to conduct summer undergraduate research as well, such as competitive Summer Undergraduate Research Experience (SURE) stipends at in- and out of state institutions. We have also included their post-graduate plans as well.
Most of the students who conduct undergraduate research present their findings at the annual fall technical meeting of the Oklahoma Academy of Sciences (OAS) or at other similar meetings. OAS is a meeting that brings together undergraduate students from colleges and universities across the state and provides a forum for student research presentations.
One of most important objectives in biomedical research is the publication of research data. A number of our students have made significant contributions in their laboratories to warrant co-authorship on publications in peer-reviewed scientific journals. A co-authorship on a peer-reviewed scientific journal is a major accomplishment for an undergraduate student!
The faculty at OC encourages every student to participate on an undergraduate research project. However, it's best if you hear this first hand from our students. Read on as you will find our current and former students share how undergraduate research has helped shape and influence their career decisions.

ah you're right... my fault.. I only noticed the updated time... didn't realized the change of location... .
I was scrambling around looking for the place because I couldn't find dvhs (diablo valley high school?) on google... so I just pick the closest (diablo valley college) and unsurprisingly no one was there...
just for future reference... can I get all the addresses for all the courts that you guys play at? (cal high, dvhs, etc) and also maybe your cell ph?
my email: email@example.com - 765 409 4414
I don't live in the san ramon area so I would really need specific address since I'm not too familiar with the area...
hopefully there will be another one soon...

The pattern was based on this and this, but I shortened the sleeves and added an elastic edge to give the sleeve a little poof.
As with the other versions, I'm left thinking I could do something more with this pattern. Although I'm all for simple, there is something lacking (despite the overstimulating print). If I can pry it from the four year old's hands long enough to figure it out, I'll let you know. For now, hope this brightens your day a bit!

EDMONTON - Relegated to the practice roster after his first pre-season, J.C. Sherritt looked like he might become an afterthought with the Edmonton Eskimos.
Two seasons and 202 bone-crunching tackles later, Sherritt is not only the cornerstone of the Eskimos' defence, he's the top defensive player in the CFL.
The Eskimos rewarded Sherritt for his stellar play Wednesday, signing the five-foot-nine, 218 pound linebacker to a contract extension through the 2015 season.
"Last year was obviously a season of highs and lows, and one of the highs was definitely the play of J.C. Sherritt," Eskimos general manager Ed Hervey said.
Sherritt was the overwhelming choice for the CFL's outstanding defensive player award, earning 49 of the 57 votes cast by CFL coaches and members of the Football Reporters of Canada.
His stats backed up the praise. He made a record-setting 130 defensive tackles in 2012. He also recorded three sacks, three special teams tackles, three forced fumbles, one fumble recovery, two knockdowns and five interceptions for 56 yards. A nagging ankle injury kept him out of the CFL East semifinal with Toronto, which the Argonauts won 42-26.
"He is an extremely talented player who has character beyond reproach," Eskimos head coach Kavis Reed said in a statement. "He is a core player who will help us in our championship quest."
That's big praise for someone who wasn't even expected to make the team. Sherritt initially signed with Edmonton on April 20, 2011, as a free agent, but Hervey said even the process of getting him into camp was an "uphill battle."
"When he got here there were people that were skeptical of his ability," Hervey said. "It wasn't until coach Reed had a practice session where he went live and J.C. ended up showing how physical he was, nearly knocking out one of the running backs on a goal-line drill.
"I think at that point everyone said 'He's going to make it at least until the first pre-season game,' and the rest is history."
That history included being cut after the 2011 pre-season and placed on the practice roster. But with the Eskimos dealing with injuries on defence, Sherritt got into the lineup for Edmonton's 2011 season opener against Saskatchewan. He emphatically took advantage of the opportunity, making 11 tackles in the Eskimos' 42-28 win over the Roughriders.
The Eastern Washington product ended the 2011 season 74 defensive tackles, three quarterback sacks and was named the West Division rookie of the year.
"J.C. took full advantage of every opportunity to every opportunity given to him, and because of those last two seasons he was obviously rewarded for his services."
Securing Sherritt to a contract was a priority for the Eskimos, who have also extended the contracts of kicker Grant Shaw, linebacker T.J. Hill and offensive lineman Brian Ramsay over the last couple of weeks.
"These signings keep the nucleus of this football team intact," Reed said. "We are extremely proud to have them be a part of this team because of their talent and character."

ALAMEDA – The blossoming career of undrafted free agent Matt McGloin kicked into high gear Wednesday at about the time the Raiders announced that first-round draft pick D.J. Hayden's rookie season ended.
Hayden, the prized pick of Oakland's draft class, was placed on season-ending injured reserve as a result of a groin injury he suffered two weeks ago. He underwent surgery for a sports hernia Tuesday, coach Dennis Allen said.
Meanwhile, Allen tabbed McGloin as the Raiders starting quarterback for Sunday's game against the Tennessee Titans, in large part because of how well McGloin played in his first NFL start last Sunday.
"Matt McGloin earned the right to get another opportunity to start," Allen said.
McGloin completed 18 of 32 passes for 197 yards and three touchdowns against the Houston Texans last Sunday in one of the more impressive starting debuts in NFL history.
He played only because of a sprained right knee that has hobbled Pryor since Nov. 3.
Allen and Pryor said that Pryor's knee remains an issue. It's conceivable that Pryor will be the primary backup Sunday, as long as his knee gets stronger.
"I play a certain way and I just got to be a little bit more healthy to do that," Pryor said of his heavy reliance upon running and moving around in the pocket.
Pryor practiced Wednesday, but he was limited because of his injury. He said he is receiving extra treatment at home but there's still discomfort.
Allen made the decision to go with McGloin after meeting with Pryor. Everyone seems onboard with Allen's decision.
"You get hurt, other guys play well, why not continue with it?" Pryor said. "I don't blame coach. I'm a team player. I'll be doing the looks for the corners, writing up a report for McGloin and helping the best that I can. I'm hoping that he has a lot of success."
McGloin doesn't lack for confidence, which is part of what endears him to Allen and McGloin's teammates.
He said he isn't sure what to expect long term but, for now, he feels as if he's the right person for the job.
"It's a performance-based business and, at the end of the day, you have to perform to play," McGloin said. "We did play well last week. Coach is doing the right thing sticking with what we had and seeing what happens."
Pryor understands the business side of the NFL. After all, he earned the starting job in training camp by outperforming Matt Flynn, Tyler Wilson and McGloin.
He said his focus now is on getting healthy, finding ways to get better and helping McGloin succeed.
Pryor started eight of Oakland's first nine games, with Flynn replacing Pryor for one game after Pryor suffered a concussion.
Flynn since has been released and McGloin has burst on to the scene as an intriguing prospect at an unsettled position. That coincided with a precipitous drop in production by Pryor.
In Pryor's first four games, he completed 68.3 percent of his passes for 845 yards and four touchdowns, with two interceptions and 11 sacks.
However, he completed only 50.8 percent of his passes for 714 yards in the past four games, with one touchdown, eight interceptions and 18 sacks.
McGloin has made the most of his chances at every stop during his football career. He knows full well that the pressure is on to show that his play against the Texans wasn't an aberration.
"As long as I play well, I would hope I get more and more opportunities to start," McGloin said. "But the main thing being there is playing well. We know what it takes. Last week, obviously we did a great job. Hopefully we can continue that."
Wide receiver Rod Streater said he and his teammates are all-in with McGloin.
"We have a lot of confidence in him," Streater said. "He came out very poised, made a lot of plays for us and helped us win the game. … We just got to go with the changes."
— Running back Darren McFadden (hamstring), receiver Denarius Moore (shoulder) and defensive end Jason Hunter (foot) did not practice Wednesday.
Receiver Andre Holmes (shoulder), guard Mike Brisiel (knee) and defensive tackle Daniel Muir (knee) practiced two days after they underwent MRI exams for their injuries.
Allen said McFadden had a productive workout with a team trainer on the side Wednesday and that McFadden is "getting closer" to returning to practice. McFadden missed most of the past three games.
— The Raiders activated linebacker Miles Burris from the physically unable to perform list and placed him on their 53-man roster.
Burris started 15 games for the Raiders as a rookie last season. He missed all of the Raiders offseason workouts, training camp and the first 10 games this season while recovering from knee surgery.
Burris returned to practice with his teammates three weeks ago. The Raiders were obligated to make a move Wednesday. Allen said there's a "chance" that Burris will play against the Titans.
— Allen said that he is targeting the Raiders game against the Dallas Cowboys on Thanksgiving for the 2013 debut of left offensive tackle Jared Veldheer, who has spent the past 3 ½ months rehabilitating from triceps surgery.
— The Raiders also re-signed defensive end Brian Sanford to their 53 man roster. He was waived by the Raiders each of the past three weeks, only to be re-signed.
— Defensive tackle Ricky Lumpkin was signed by the Raiders and placed on their practice squad. He played in one game for the Arizona Cardinals last season.

[ Academia ] International Law: Public International Law
Why it is relevant for ...
[ Academia ] as a Related Elective for those interested in International Security : Students interested in civil liberties and national security issues will be interested in this course. It considers the investigation, detention and prosecution of terrorism suspects under U.S. law, and it also looks to sources of lawmaking and oversight beyond the courts.
General course Description:
This seminar will explore legal and policy questions related to the investigation, detention, and prosecution of terrorism suspects under U.S. law. Moving beyond Supreme Court detainee decisions, the course will address contemporary challenges involving civil liberties, national security oversight, and effective counterterrorism policy. Topics addressed will include domestic intelligence-gathering and investigations (including the use of informants, FISA surveillance, racial/religious profiling, and terrorist watchlists); the prosecution of terrorism suspects (material support laws, the choice between civilian and military courts); and the future of detention policy. One core theme will be the extent to which both lawmaking and oversight in the national security context occur outside the courts ¿ often through legal counsel opinions, agency guidelines, internal watchdogs, and other lesser-known institutions and sources of law. The course also pays special attention to the policy controversies that most affect U.S. immigrant and minority communities. This course is designed to complement Professor Janet Alexander¿s Terrorism and the Courts seminar (Winter term). To develop skills central to the work of practicing lawyers, students will write two short papers that simulate the actual work assignments of lawyers for government agencies, human rights groups, or other interested parties. For instance, students might choose among assignments that ask them to draft a local ordinance governing police intelligence-gathering, prepare a memo for an agency head or member of Congress, revise a section of Attorney General Guidelines for FBI investigations, or write a section of an Inspector General report on a counterterrorism issue. These assignments, for Writing (W) or Professional Writing (PW) credit, will be due before the end of the quarter. Alternatively, students may opt to take the seminar for Research (R) credit with the instructor¿s approval, according to the standard requirements and deadlines. In addition to completing the writing assignments, students are expected to read thoroughly and contribute to a thoughtful and lively discussion each class.
Course Style: A Substantive course teaches the law, theory, and policy in a particular area of law
Course Frequency: Offered once a year
