Are Republican governors better for a state's economy? Fresh evidence offers some tantalizing clues.
Nine of the 10 fastest growing U.S. states in the fourth quarter of 2013 were controlled by Republicans governors, according to the most recently available data from the Bureau of Labor Statistics. The BLS on Wednesday released a state-by-state comparison of GDP growth.
Six of the 10 worst-performing states, on the other hand, were run by Democrats.
North Dakota, in the midst of a fracking oil-boom, led the way with 8.4% growth in the final three months of 2013. Rounding out the top five were West Virginia, Wyoming, Louisiana and Nevada.
Only West Virginia, one of the nation's poorest states, has a Democratic governor among the top 10 states.
The reasons why some states grow faster than others, of course, are varied and complex and often beyond short-run or even long-term political control. The health of the broader U.S. economy also plays a huge factor.
Most of the top performers are in the South and Southwest, previously underdeveloped regions whose economies have been stoked in part by soaring population growth. Other states like North Dakota have benefited from the fortuitous exploitation of abundant raw materials, primarily oil and gas.
Many of the slowest growing states such as Massachusetts and New York, by contrast, are older and more settled. They are also wealthier than the national average, however, and have higher percentages of residents with college degrees.
Other explanations for the disparity in growth include the level of taxes and regulations. Taxes in the South are lower, there are fewer unions and states in the region are more lightly regulated. So businesses have been keen to set up shop.
Economic legacy is also something that cannot be overlooked. Mississippi has been dominated by Republicans for more than a decade, but the historically poor state has not kept up with most of its Southern brethren.
In any case, the Republican advantage does not appear to be a one-quarter quirk. States led by Republican governors have also fared better since the end of the Great Recession in mid-2009.
Seven of the 10 fastest growing states, including the top seven, were run by Republican governors for all or most of the period from 2010 to 2013.
North Dakota again was No. 1 at 16.7% growth. The state was followed by Texas (7.1%), South Dakota (6.3%), Nebraska (6.3%) and Utah (5.8%).
What do MarketWatch readers think? Are Republicans better for your economy? Or are Democratic states better places to live?

Fund Set Up For Families of Slain Little Falls Teens
LITTLE FALLS (AP) - A memorial fund has been set up for the families of two Minnesota teenagers fatally shot during an alleged home burglary.
The fund was set up at Pine Country Bank in Little Falls, Bowlus, Royalton and Rice. Checks may be written out to the Haile Kifer and Nicholas Brady Memorial Fund.
The fund is intended to help with funeral costs for the families of 18-year-old Haile Kifer and her cousin, 17-year-old Nicholas Brady. A 64-year-old rural Little Falls man is charged with murdering the two teenagers after they apparently broke into his home on Thanksgiving Day.
A joint funeral for the teens will be held Saturday in Little Falls.

LENA – The Fulton Steamers proved they still had what it takes to win a regional golf championship after losing three seniors who were a big part of their back-to-back 1A titles.
Fulton and Stockton both shot 328 on Tuesday at the 1A Lena-Winslow Regional, with Morrison claiming the final team spot in next week's 1A Westminster Christian
Sectional with a 335.
In addition to the Steamers and Mustangs, Eastland's Casey Fritz and Devin Hartman and Erie's Koby Kuhnen advanced as individuals from Wolf Hollow.
Even though the Steamers lost the team title on a fifth-score tiebreaker, there weren't any sad faces amongst the clan clad in red and black.
"In our minds, it still feels like we won it," said Fulton senior Gunner Decker, whose 79 led the Steamers. "We've had four low scores pretty consistent all year, and it feels good to come out and do it again today."
Fulton was one of the first full teams to finish play, and the 328 scored by Decker, senior Kyle Wiebenga (80), junior Matt Dail (81) and senior Logan Rascher (88) was posted on the scoreboard for quite some time. As the final golfers trickled in, it became clear that Stockton was the only team that had a chance to beat the Steamers.
Stockton's No. 1, Trey Timpe, needed to score 83 or better to give the Blackhawks the regional plaque. He shot an 84.
"That was one of the things that really ate away at us," Wiebenga said of the nearly 1½-hour wait. "Our coaches told us we were supposed to be the fifth-ranked team here, and that left a sour taste in our mouths. We wanted to prove that Fulton came to play today, and we had guys step up like we have all year."
Morrison also had some tense moments playing the waiting game. With No. 1 golfer Reid Hoffman and Le-Win's No. 1 Logan Moothart still to finish, the Panthers led the Mustangs by four strokes for the final team spot in Monday's sectional meet.
But Hoffman rebounded from three double bogeys on his first three holes of the day to post a 77, beating Moothart by 12 shots to help Morrison advance comfortably (335-343).
"I made up three shots on the front after that bad start, then hit some stupid shots on the back and somehow still pulled off a 77," said Hoffman, who was runner-up individually to Stockton's Cameron Upmann (74). "I didn't play like I wanted to, but it made a big difference in the team score. The other guys pulled through with some good scores, and I'm super excited and proud of my team for moving on to Monday."
Eastland finished fifth (346), and will have a pair of individuals playing in Algonquin next week. Casey Fritz and Devin Hartman tied for third individually with matching 79s, the low score among individuals not on the three advancing teams.
"I struck the ball well, but my putts just weren't falling," said Fritz, a senior. "I thought for sure that there'd be a lot better scores than 79, but I feel pretty good about being in a four-way tie for third place."
"I've been up and down all year, and after a 43 on the front nine, I thought I was out of it," Hartman said. "But then I played par golf on the back, and I was pretty pumped when I saw how I finished.
"It's going to be good having Casey there next week too; I'll play more relaxed and not feel as much pressure, because he always keeps me laughing."
Senior Seth Blair almost joined his Cougars teammates, but came up short in a one-hole playoff against Le-Win's Moothart for the final individual spot.
Erie was the next local finisher, placing eighth. Kuhnen, a junior, shot 82 to place fifth among the individuals not on the top three teams; the top 10 moved on.
West Carroll (11th, 418) and Prophetstown (13th, 422) also competed in the 14-team, 83-golfer meet.
As for the Steamers, they were riding high on the way back to the team bus after advancing to sectionals as a team for the fifth straight season.
"It's awesome, almost indescribable," Dail said. "To lose three scholarship golfers after last year and still come back and actually shoot five shots better today, it shows our consistency and gives us a lot of confidence for Monday."

2221. Goldstein, Walter A.. 1986. Alternative crops, rotations, and management systems for dryland farming.. Ph.D. dissertation, Agronomy and Soils, WSU.
This work covers a number of research areas, including the use of edible white lupine as an alternative crop, the use of black medic in rotation with spring peas and winter wheat (the PALS concept), performance of winter wheat as influenced by rotations, fertilization, and fumigation; rotational effects of medics; wheat interference with weeds; costs and returns of alternative systems; comparison of agronomic effects of conventional, organic, and biodynamic management. The PALS (perpetuating alternative legume system) concept was field-tested using a pea + medic - medic GM - winter wheat rotation with limited inputs of agrichemicals and tillage. This system was more economic using market prices of commodities at both a low and high yield level. With government support prices, the PALS system was competitive in the low yield situation, but not the high. Rotational effects appeared to suppress weeds in wheat with the medic compared to a continuous cereal system.

states is undertaken now al most exclusively because of their fre quent com mission of uue nmst brutal and exahperatiag crime a crime rarely ever committed save by a negro it may be suid that such outraged are not puuished in northern commu nities in auianuer so summary we answer that within the past year there haye been several instances north of the ohio river of the lynching of ne gro ravishes but if the assertion weie absolutely true it would not meet the argument with which the southern urn justifies his resort to lynch law in punishment of this crime he alleges aud the fuets sus tuiu him that suth offenses are rarely committed by white men but cou stautly attempted aud often perpetrat ed by the worst class of negroes which unfortunately is in many parts of the south a very numerous class such negroes have neither the intelligence nor the self command which will warn or restrain them from the gratification of any passion at the cost of any crime it is an exceptional case when a white man however degraded will outrage a woman he may be wicked and bru tal enough to do so but prudence at least controls his passions the in stincts of the negro of the lower order are not ouly more bestial and vicious but are under as little control as those of an animal he is iis absolutely in capable as any animal of subordinat ing impulse to reason and under strong excitement he bus all the cru elly of a fierce beast not so much the wish to torture as the ferocious appe tite to destroy it is in obedience to this instinct more than with any pur pose to remove the witness of his crime which causes the uegro ravisher to almost invariably murder his vic tim we may say iu th:s connection also that women who haye been out raged yet not murdered have commit ted suicide in order to avoid the humil iation of publicly testifying against the ravisher one such cass might well induce a community to lynch in every other taking into consideration the pecu liarly revolting character of the crime and the indignation it necessarily arouses any one who at nil understands human nature will surely no feel sur prised that men are inclined to punish it speedily and surely and it be us ually committed by a class of crimi nals who are too stupid and savage to think or care about penalties in the remote future and reached only after dilatory proceedings which have noth ing in them to terrify to the vulgar imagination if experience has dem onstrated that the olow formal legul trial and tardy sentence inspired no dread in the minds of t such offenders what then is there not some excuse for resorting to methods which may prove exemplary and really deterrent — basil w duke,,in september fetter's southern magazine no negro problem exists it is a coincidence of unusual inter est

Passing a major reform in Sacramento has the same odds as a novice knocking out the champ at a martial-arts competition. This is particularly true when it comes to reforming ballot-box budgeting. I've introduced eight measures on this topic over the past 2 1/2 years, and people often ask me why I bother. Changes to the status quo are long shots that require heavy lifting. Complex constitutional amendments are not easily explained in sound bites. And many of these bills don't exactly ingratiate a legislator with special interests. I always respond that I am lucky enough to have been made to see the big picture, and that the big picture imparts in me a sense of martial duty.
When I first ran for state Assembly, I sought the endorsement of former Speaker Robert Hertzberg, whose encyclopedic knowledge of our government and involvement in various reform groups made him a prime candidate to teach this karate kid a thing or two. In true Mr. Miyagi fashion, he wanted some wax-on, wax-off. "You can't have my endorsement until I know you're prepared for the monumental task before you. And you cannot be prepared until you've studied the roots of California's problems."
Undaunted, I humbly left his office and began my quest. I read everything I could, whether he'd suggested it or not: California histories, Legislative Analyst Office reports, think-tank studies and more. After months of study, I was ready to spar. At our next meeting, I was able to thoroughly discuss the big picture with Hertzberg. The good news? I received his endorsement and won my race. The bad news? I've remained acutely aware of the need for reform, and troubled by the general inaction to achieve it.
Buried in the documents I studied were disturbing facts about the scope and harmful effects of ballot-box budgeting. Unfunded program spending from ballot initiatives costs California at least $8.6 billion each year, and special funds created by ballot initiatives soak up an additional $2 billion taxpayer dollars each year. This is nuts.
I believe those funds should be spent on the core functions of government: Paving roads, improving our education system, keeping courts open so lawsuits don't drag on for years, and making sure someone promptly responds when you dial 911. Ballot-box budgeting for special interests' pet projects siphons resources away from these core functions. And when government cannot perform its core functions adequately, people lose faith. That is why I have tried mightily to reform our system.
In 2011, I introduced ACA 6, a simple measure that said an initiative could not create a new program without first identifying how it would pay for it. Special interests shouldn't be allowed to enshrine a new spending program without telling the voters exactly how they will find the money to fund it. I introduced AB 65, which would print the top five financial supporters of an initiative in our ballot pamphlets. Following the money is the easiest way to know who will benefit from a measure. And I introduced ACA 10, which would make it harder to add junk to our constitution but ensure that reformers can still remove junk. The federal constitution has been amended just 27 times in 225 years. California's has been amended 521 times in less than half that period, a major cause of the state's dysfunction.
I am heartened to see so many newcomers echoing the calls for reform, now that Democrats have a two-thirds majority in the Legislature. Although my proposals and others are far from partisan, I, too, hope that party unity gives reformers a better chance of winning hearts and votes, even if the clear need for reform previously did not. I also believe that Republican leaders would be wise to join reform efforts, instead of blocking them because the author happens to be a Democrat. After all, fiscal responsibility used to be what Republicans campaigned on, and protecting our state constitution from special interests should appeal to all patriots.
Will this year be the one where the karate kids finally defeat the special-interest champs? I will continue pushing for these important reforms this session. If you think reforming ballot-box budgeting is important, I encourage you to write your state representatives and tell them to do something about it.

Sorry if this has been addressed, but I couldn't find it. It's my first post. I have been playing for a few weeks and cleared half the vicious.
I'd love it if we could make a custom classes. The way I envision it is as follows:
There is a 4th unlock level on each class building(guild, mage tower, thieves den, church)
There is a 4th class to unlock in each of those buildings. Named something cool no doubt.
On the race/class screen, there is a 4th class in those buildings. When you pick that class, you go to a popup screen where you pick three traits from the nine traits taken from other classes from the building. Once selected, you go back to the main race/class screen. If you hover over your selected class, the info popup will show the traits you selected.
Some base traits would have to be slightly adjusted. Here are a proposed list of changes:
The monk traits would have to be recombined due to Hand-to-hand only being bad. Maybe start with something like this:
Diamond Body: 50% phy resist, -2 base damage per level
Discipline: Double Health regeneration, -30% attack bonus
Resistance: Higher resistance cap.
Assassin's "sometimes first strike" would have to balance with rogue's "always first strike". Maybe move one hp per level lost from the attack bonus trait to the first strike trait.
I'd adjust Wizard so that the small-item glyphs and conversion point lending abilities tie into one single trait and the remainder of those traits go into a separate trait. This change isn't important.
So there you go. Anyone have any posted info on this topic that I missed?
Edit: Some problems people brought up:
Rogue attack attack bonus stacking(+70% when they are full hp, first strike, -5hp/level)
Monk resistance stacking(75%phy, -2 base damage/level)
I'd be fine with any sort of extra Penalty. Make these characters not "legal"(don't get badges, gold, or complete quests) if you like. These added classes would be a post- hard GT.

Donald Sterling's racist remarks that resulted in a lifetime ban from the National Basketball Association Tuesday point out why affirmative action is needed, Rev. Jesse Jackson said Tuesday.
Appearing at the Milken Institute's Global Conference in Beverly Hills, Calif., Jackson pointed out the Sterling incident comes on the heels of a Nevada rancher who found trouble over similarly racist remarks, and the Supreme Court's recent ruling upholding a ban on Affirmative Action in Michigan.
"Sterling shows why we need affirmative action," Jackson said in an interview with MarketWatch. "People in high places have no will toward goodness unless the law is there to enforce it."
Sterling was banned from the NBA for life on Tuesday in the wake of comments he made over the phone to his girlfriend. The remarks have resulted in a number of sponsors pulling away from his team, the Los Angeles Clippers, and the 80-year-old owner is seeing his team members and coach Doc Rivers criticize his remarks.
Jackson said it's time for Sterling, who he said has a long history of racism, to pull away from the team.
"He should apologize, he should resign and he should sell the team," Jackson said. "We have a high tolerance for racism. His past is very well known. It took this over-the-hill statement … to get to this point."
Jackson added that Sterling's comment pose an economic threat to the league and the team, which long has been one of the poorest in the NBA, and Sterling himself has been criticized for being one of the worst owners in professional sports.
"His words were so insulting and so incendiary, it embarrassed the NBA, affected its brand [and] humiliated the players," Jackson said.
Jackson's words were echoed by others at the conference, a gathering of movers and shakers in finance, politics and society. Jonathan Nelson, chief executive of Providence Equity Partners, and a frequent investor in sports ventures, said "one would hope" that Sterling sells the team.
Told that Sterling was receiving a lifetime ban from the league, Nelson quipped: "OK, that seems long enough."
He said unlike other businesses, professional sports cannot tolerate racism because of the severe effect it can have on brands.
"There is nothing close to the value of sports," he said, adding that Sterling's remarks "cannot be tolerated."

ON MENTAL ILLNESS: "Negative" Judgmental Messages

Annals of Emergency Medicine reports this month on a speech given this year by American Society of Anesthesiologists (ASA) president Mark J. Lema: "What are the Current Issues Challenging the Status Quo?"
Among the answers he supplied was:
"Poachers and Dabblers." By this, he explained, he meant "ER MDs (Emergency Surgery"
When I started at our practice, not so very long ago, the battle had only recently been won regarding the ability and privilege of ER docs to perform rapid-sequence intubation. This was a fresh issue in our institution, which boggled my mind because the large east-coast academic institutions I had trained at had been utilizing this technique for over a decade, and airway management was definitely viewed as a core competency for graduating ER docs. It was in this context that we launched into the next battle to allow us to perform moderate/deep sedation. The anesthesiologists used the same arguments they had previously used - that ER docs were not appropriately trained to perform these procedures, that it is unsafe for patients, that only a ABA-certified anesthesiologist can safely do so... etc.
I wondered why they put up such a fight. It was exceedingly clear that this was only a marginal economic issue for the anesthesiologists -- such procedures are reasonably uncommon, and in any case, they had never been very interested in coming down to the ER at 0300 to provide the service when asked, and it's manifestly clear that ER docs are in fact trained and capable of providing the service. In the end, I think it was just 'turf.' Sedation -- and control of propofol, the best drug for deep sedation -- was their turf and they took a very proprietary interest in it, even if they were not exercising that prerogative on ER patients.
Ultimately, we won, and have now done thousands of cases without a single adverse event. And every once in a while, I get someone who is ASA class III or IV (i.e. relatively high risk for complications) and I call the anesthetist to come and do the sedation for me. Their response has been quite positive, seeing that we do recognize the limits of our abilities and respect the technical skills they bring to the table. So it is disheartening to see the president of the ASA deride ER docs as "poachers and dabblers."
It may just represent some sour-grapes griping, because the standard has moved strongly towards ER docs providing this service -- all of my friends at academic centers do, and the majority at community hospitals do as well. A small ASA survey indicated that 59% of hospitals do credential non anesthesiologists (largely ER docs and ICU docs) to perform deep sedation. Yet the president of the ASA, as well as the clinical policies of the ASA continue to insist that only an anesthesiologist should administer propofol. It is also true that the primary "target" of the anesthesiologists are GI docs who want to use propofol in office-based endoscopy suites. (A practice which does seem questionable to me. We always have a second ER doc to do the sedation, while the first does the procedure. And I don't know whether a GI doc can manage an airway, but I know I can.) Which makes it doubly insulting to have ER docs lumped in, if that is the primary concern.
Fortunately, we now have a good, collegial relationship with our gas-men; it's pretty clear that we are good at what we do, and that we don't represent either an economic threat or a danger to patients, so there is no likelihood that there will be any attempt to roll back our privileges. And I think the national trend is pretty clear on this as well. Let's hope the ASA can get over itself and allow the feud to pass quietly into the mists of time.

About Emil Holmer
Emil is full of raw energy and force
"I would rather make a failure that has energy than a safe success."
Emil Holmer began his love affair with art when he discovered a book by Salvador Dali. Born in Karlstad in 1975 before living in Stockholm and now in Berlin, the painter strives to create work that is disturbing, uncanny and possesses some form of beauty. Holmer's body of work has its historical roots in post-war abstraction, pop-art and concretist art, and features a collage of colours and textures that are forcibly fused together. Holmer has created what he describes as "future paintings" for Absolut Art. Rather than to use the traditional medium of paint and canvas as his tools of choice, he opts for unexpected materials such as foil and plastic glitter strings that are combined together by a digital scanner.

Climate Change: Awful Lies and Truths
Leading world expert on reducing climate change through energy efficiency and clean energy supply. I am passionate about creating and implementing strategies that eliminate energy waste in business, that improve profitability and create leaders in the low carbon economy. I dispel the myth that a low carbon future will have a negative impact on society and show how world can reduce its greenhouse emissions by 80% Cost Effectively. I am economist and energy technologist and promote through software and training a breakthrough approach that allows any business to eliminate energy waste by upto 80%. Currently operating from Australia, the business wants to branch out to US, Asia and Europe.
Business owners, business leaders and managers in Government, multinationals, corporations and large businesses. They are interested in solving their problem of reporting to government, stakeholders and reducing their energy costs and being leaders in proactive climate change by reducing their greenhouse gas emissions. They are conservative, professionals, busy, want someone to solve the problems of greenhouse reporting & high energy costs.
I require a Logo and a Front Page of my book "Climate Change Awful Lies and Truths" that communicates a bold design, with multiple or vibrant colour, that is dignified, conservative yet trusted that would look like a government institute and brings out the idea that business can make money from climate change. Save the environment whilst making money.
What I am wanting to communicate... is a subtle, yet strong communication that the LIES that meeting big cut in greenhouse gas emission will cost the economy and business and truth that Massive Savings can be achieved in every sector, right now, with existing technology, cost effectively.

Speaking of platform pedals, I think I'll stick with them, at least for now. I've really grown used to them, and really like not having to clip in and out. A lot of what I've been riding is really technical, so that's a huge plus when I have to quickly put a foot down. I've ordered a pair of shin guards to give some added protection in case my feet do slip, but I really like the trade off of not being locked in.

31243, Hymns, Glorious Things Are Sung of Zion, no. 48
1. Glorious things are sung of Zion,
Enoch's city seen of old,
Where the righteous, being perfect,
Walked with God in streets of gold.
Love and virtue, faith and wisdom,
Grace and gifts were all combined.
As himself each loved his neighbor;
All were one in heart and mind.
2. There they shunn'd the pow'r of Satan
And observed celestial laws;
For in Adam-ondi-Ahman
Zion rose where Eden was.
When beyond the pow'r of evil,
So that none could covet wealth,
One continual feast of blessings
Crown'd their days with peace and health.
3. Then the tow'rs of Zion glittered
Like the sun in yonder skies,
And the wicked stood and trembled,
Filled with wonder and surprise.
Then their faith and works were perfect;
Lo, they followed their great Head!
So the city went to heaven,
And the world said, "Zion's fled!"
4. When the Lord returns with Zion,
And we hear the watchman cry,
Then we'll surely be united,
And we'll all see eye to eye.
Then we'll mingle with the angels,
And the Lord will bless his own.
Then the earth will be as Eden,
And we'll know as we are known.

Chief executive Ivan Seidenberg told investors he hopes Apple will build a Verizon iPhone for their upcomming 4G LTE network. He said nothing about an iPhone being built for Verizon's current CDMA network, however, so contrast that as you will against recent rumors of Apple building 3 million CDMA iPhones in December for an early 2011 launch.
"We don't feel like we have an iPhone deficit. We would love to carry it when we get there, but we have to earn it," Seidenberg said.
"I think 4G will accelerate the process, and any other decisions Apple makes would be fine with us," he added. "Hopefully, at some point Apple will get with the program."
Either way, it will be an interesting couple of months comming up. Verizon is currently the largest carrier in the US and they have promised 4G LTE in 30 NFL markets by the end of 2010. AT&T is also working on their 4G network with promises of a mid-2011 rollout.
What do you think, will a Verizon iPhone happen soon on CDMA, will they wait for 4G, or will it just never happen? Tell us your thoughts in the comments below.

It would be nice if you could just press a hotkey for using altar boons, anyone who's had to use sanctify or magic dozens of times in the one dungeon knows what I'm talking about. Obviously it would be disabled in subdungeons.
I'd personally suggest using F1-F5 as they're far enough away that you won't press them accidentally and are unlikely to overlap with inventory hotkeys.

This is a high north version of the Russian beet soup borscht. The sweet and aromatic goose stock makes it slightly more sophisticated than the hearty Russian versions. The first time I made it was in Svalbard, an archipelago halfway between mainland Norway and the North Pole. Stock from wild Svalbard goose added a rich gamy quality. Stock from farm-raised goose has a milder flavor.
Goose and duck meat may be delicious, but most of the flavor lies hidden in the bones. Cooking leftover bones and meat in water with aromatic vegetables is a simple thing, yet the stock you get is rich and delicious. You can also use this recipe for turkey or chicken, making a somewhat lighter stock. The stock can be frozen for up to 2 months.–Andreas Viestad
Beet Soup with Goose Stock
- Quick Glance
- Serves 4
- For the goose or duck stock
- 1 tablespoon unsalted butter
- 1 onion, chopped
- 2 quarts cold water
- 2 pounds goose, duck, or turkey bones, coarsely chopped
- 4 carrots, chopped
- 1 cup chopped celeriac
- 2 bay leaves
- For the soup
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 red onions, chopped
- 2 garlic cloves, finely chopped
- 2 pounds beets, peeled and cut into 1-inch dice
- 2 bay leaves
- 2 carrots, chopped
- 5 cups goose stock or duck stock (above)
- 1 teaspoon chili powder, or more to taste
- 2 to 3 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
- Fine sea salt and freshly ground black pepper
- 1/4 cup sour cream or yogurt
- 1. Heat the butter in a large pot over medium heat. Add the onion and saute for 5 minutes, or until soft and golden. Add the water, goose bones, carrots, celeriac, and bay leaves and bring to a boil; with a large spoon, skim off the foam that forms on the surface.
- 2. Reduce the heat and simmer gently for 1 hour and 15 minutes. Line a colander or sieve with cheesecloth and strain the stock into a bowl or other container. Cover and refrigerate until ready to use.
- 3. In a medium pot, heat the oil over medium heat. Saute the onions and garlic until soft and light brown, 4 to 5 minutes.
- 4. Add the beets, bay leaves, carrots, and stock and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat and simmer for 35 to 40 minutes, until the beets are soft. Remove the bay leaves.
- 5. Transfer the soup to a blender, in batches if necessary, and purée until smooth. Return the soup to the pot and reheat. Season with the chili powder, lemon juice, and salt and pepper. Pour the soup into bowls. Add a tablespoon of sour cream to each bowl, and serve.

Why EnglishCentral?
Video is a powerful contextualizing tool. It brings the real world into the classroom and makes lesson content something directly linked to real life and use.
EnglishCentral offers teachers the chance to use video in a purposeful, structured and integrated fashion. Whether EnglishCentral is used as a purely homework supplement, an extension of textbook and class curriculum or as a blended solution, integrated with a coursebook – it truly gets students practicing and making quick progress faster than other online tool can match.
Here are some best practices that should be followed by classroom teachers when possible. These represent our "gold standard" when using EnglishCentral as a teacher.
Best Practices For Using EnglishCentral Video Lessons
Show it in class
– If you have a projector/screen or a computer lab, demonstrate how to use EnglishCentral "live". Even use EnglishCentral video lessons as an instructional aide directly in class, pausing the video, asking questions, showing language in use.
Assign Goals
– Students need motivation. Weekly goals keep students on task and can easily be tracked by teachers. We recommend students
Appoint a student "webmaster"
– You'd be surprised how tech saavy your students are! When possible, appoint one very competent student to be the "go to" person for any problems students may have using EnglishCentral.
Blend EnglishCentral with existing curriculum
– Englishcentral can help bring alive your existing textbook curriculum. We have thousands of videos on all kinds of topics – you'll always find something that will fit what you are teaching. Students can get active practice supporting what is learned in class. Even use one of our video courses that are aligned with existing coursebooks!
Give Students Choice
– The teacher doesn't always know best! Set up your class page with recommended video lessons or courses by selecting "apply class goals to any course or video". This way, students can study anything on EnglishCentral and get credit but still start with what the teacher recommends on the class page.
Train students to use the video player effectively
– Our video player has some powerful features and students need to be shown that they shouldn't just blaze through but rather slow down and be responsible for their own learning. This means using our unique "compare speech" function, slowing the audio, repeating lines, turning off the transcript, using the "hidden challenge" and more ……
Use our handy video transcripts
– Each video has a handy transcript accessible to all teachers. It's easy to copy and paste the transcript and print out to use in your lessons (click "View Transcript" on any video page). Here's an example.
Assess students with a rubric
– Make a rubric (best if it is in the student's L1) and communicate your expectations for using EnglishCentral with students. Even better, negotiate the categories and grades for the rubric so students know exactly what equals and A or B or C. Here is a handy template EnglishCentral provides.
Make EnglishCentral an official part of assessment
– If you don't take EnglishCentral seriously, most of your students won't either. Make EnglishCentral a percentage of the student's course mark. You'll see a remarkable difference in how they use it and how seriously they take it up.
3 Approaches To Using Video In The Classroom
1. Blending video into the existing curriculum and course.
This option allows a teacher to choose video content that compliments the objectives of their course. Videos are chosen for each unit and they are used in conjunction with the course book. Thus, the teacher is blending the learning – combining traditional print (textbooks) with the power of video. Videos are blended into and are part of the official course curriculum.
2. Using only video and online learning (the Flipped classroom)
In the flipped classroom, students study and learn independently (in groups or individually). The teacher sets up the learning content and environment and then consults with students as they learn the video content. For example, students could learn on EnglishCentral and the teacher could use class time to review their progress, check and evaluate. Also, consult with the students to make sure they are progressing and on task. Teachers set up the curriculum, show students how to access the video content and then become pure facilitators. Teachers might also use print materials made specifically for the videos (like the EnglishCentral workbooks).
3. Using video as a supplement for engagement or re-inforcement.
Here, videos are used only at the beginning of a lesson (to provide context and prompt student schema/background knowledge) or as supplemental material for the lesson (either inclass or as homework). The teacher adds video that will supplement the existing course curriculum and provides context and reinforces the learning objectives. However, the videos are not part of the official curriculum.

Nokia looks good on keeping their promise for a quick release on the Lumia 925—estimated to arrive in some European markets by the second week of June. Indeed Nokia Italy on their official shop site have now listed the super slim aluminum device for preorder.
Users can leave a €99.90 deposit down on the phone, available in black, grey or white, and then pay the remaining €500 when the product is ready to ship (there is no added shipping cost). Of course Nokia notes that the final price could change, though we highly doubt it will (and even if it did, it would most likely go down, not up).
With Italy taking the lead, hopefully other markets will follow soon. Anyone up for a good ol' pre-order?

EDMONTON - Wedding guest Gary Erickson was only half-joking when he took credit for the life path that led Tracy Tataryn into the arms of her now husband Kyle Sand.
After all, her former boss told her, were it not for the fact he hired her for that summer job in the ornithology lab at the Royal Alberta Museum, lo those many years ago, the pair would never have met. At the time, Kyle was working as an interpreter in one of the exhibits.
"I also met my best friend (Shannon Green) that summer, and she was a bridesmaid at my wedding," says Tracy, then laughs. "Gary takes credit for that, too."
It was only in retrospect that the summer of 2005 revealed itself to be life-changing. Tracy was in a relationship when she and Kyle first met. She considered him little more than an "acquaintance" then, and even for years afterward, despite the fact they started hanging out with a lot of the same people.
Curiously, when she found herself suddenly single a few years later in 2008, Kyle was suddenly ever-present.
"I started hearing from him more and more," says Tracy, now 29. "We would chat on MSN a few times a week, and I think that's where we really clicked. We both have a goofy sense of humour, and he constantly made me laugh."
Eventually, the online chats turned into phone conversations, which turned to in-person conversations, and, finally, into real honest-to-goodness dates.
"We fell pretty hard for one another," says Tracy.
It wasn't like the topic of marriage wasn't mentioned, albeit in passing, in the months that followed.
Still, when Kyle suggested a walk around the legislature grounds to look at the Christmas lights the following December, she wasn't at all suspicious. And she didn't think it was strange at all that he wanted to bring his camera and tripod along to take some photographs. Once there, they found a spot on the stairs of the legislature building, and Kyle asked her to pose for him.
She did, and after one or two shots, he fiddled with the settings on the camera, then pushed the timer button and walked toward her.
Before she knew what was happening, he had dropped to one knee in the snow, at the same time pulling a ring box from his pocket. As her hands flew to her face in shock and surprise, the shutter clicked, forever capturing the moment.
"I had absolutely no idea whatsoever that he was planning on proposing," she says. "Actually, I'm pretty sure I almost fell over, but I did mange to find the breath to say 'yes.'"
Their wedding last July incorporated some of her family's Ukrainian Catholic traditions. The couple donned periwinkle crowns and made three circles of the altar during the ceremony, their hands bound by a Ukrainian embroidered cloth. When Kyle accidentally stepped on the back of her gown, the ripping sound was clear to everyone in St. Josephat's Cathedral. So was the look of mortification on his face.
"Everyone had a good chuckle over that."
In addition to a traditional wedding cake, the couple also had a Ukrainian wedding bread on the cake table called a korvai. Not just any korvai, though. This one had been made by Tracy's late grandmother for her parents' wedding 30 years before.
"My mom cleaned it up a bit, adorned it with fresh periwinkle from the garden, and it looked good as new," says Tracy. "I love that I was able to have something to remind me of my baba at my wedding."
Wedding date: July 2, 2011
Wedding venue: St. Josephat's Cathedral
Wedding reception: Ukrainian Youth Complex
Budget: $24,000
No. of guests: 100
First dance song: More Than Words, by Extreme
Honeymoon: P.E.I., Nova Scotia, New Brunswick

Lipscomb coach Jeff Forehand, whose team had the tying run at second in the bottom of the ninth, felt the game was a good learning experience for his team. Second baseman Kyle Henry, third baseman Cory Hale, shortstop Zach Messer and right fielder Lee Wilson all four made their debuts in a Bisons uniform at Ken Dugan Field at Stephen L. Marsh Stadium.
Pitchers Mike Grace and Alex Ross also made their first appearances for the Bisons.
"We have a lot of new faces," Bisons coach Jeff Forehand said. "We have to see how they are going to mesh. We are going to be all right.
"There might have been some jitters. Once these new guys get their feet wet I think good things are going to be happening for us."
Both teams were scoreless in the first three innings. The Bisons struck first with a run in the fourth as Hale scored on an error by the shortstop.
"We had opportunities early in the game to push runs across," Forehand said. "We talk all the time about putting ourselves in a position to win."
Murray State answered with three runs and five hits in the fifth, including a home run by designated hitter Bryan Propst, off of starter Josh Smith.
The Bisons tied the game at 3-3 with two runs in the fifth.
Again, Murray State came back with four runs in the sixth against Grace, a right-hander who opened the inning in relief of Smith. Murray State added one more run in the seventh. With one out Ross, a freshman left-hander, entered the game.
The Bisons scored a run in the seventh as Hale hit his first of two consecutive doubles to center field. He scored on a two-out single by Andrew Nickerson.
Right-hander Josh Cotham replaced Ross on the mound with one out in the eighth and finished the game for the Bisons.
"We are going to ask Alex to get us three or four outs in the middle of the game," Forehand said. "Josh will hopefully get back into his role of coming in and setting things up."
In the ninth Hale led off with a double. He advanced to third on a fly ball to right field and scored on a passed ball. Nickerson, who had reached base on a walk, went to second on the passed ball, but was left stranded.
Hale led the Bisons in hitting with three hits, four and one RBI. He also was hit by a pitch twice. Nickerson and Wilson each had two hits. They each drove in a run and also each scored a run. The Bisons pounded out 10 hits in the game.
In five innings Smith scattered seven hits, allowed three runs and struck out seven. He did not walk a batter.
"Josh did all right," Forehand said. "His pitch count got up a little high in the fifth."
Grace was credited with the loss for the Bisons.
Lead-off hitter Kyle Tiernan and Wes Cunningham each had three hits for Murray State. Tiernan drove in a game-high five runs. Murray State had 13 hits overall.
"You hate to lose a game, but you have to learn from them," Forehand said. "We have some good things to build on. I am looking forward to Saturday's game."
Senior right-hander Matt Bowling will start Saturday's game at 2. The series will end Sunday at 1 with sophomore right-hander Davey Hackett starting for the Bisons.

Hi, I hope that you are having a wonderful holiday season.
We have been busy, as usual. Last week, I changed classrooms at work and will now be teaching the 3's/4's class (with occasional after school kids thrown into the mix). I have been moving furniture and reorganizing, while still trying to keep the kids constructively busy. I am very happy about the change, and look forward to getting down to some teaching of the ABC's and 123's, science, and art, as well as how to get along well with others part of life.
Last Friday, we traveled the two hours to Eugene for an early Christmas Eve with my side of the family; returning the next day. It was so much fun, and I am always grateful for the big hit of love that I return home with.
Last night, we spent Christmas Eve over at Cary's Mom's home and are going back over there today. It is always nice to spend time with the folks who live near us too, and to observe as the kids grow up into such neat people.
I hope that you are all well and happy, and I will be around to visit you soon.
Kathy M.

With just two more episodes to go, Mike "The Situation" Sorrentino finally apologized to Snooki on tonight's episode of Jersey Shore. Their feud has been going on for more than a year now, and has shown no sign of slowing down this season. In fact, at Snooki's baby shower, she wouldn't even look him in the eye or answer a direct question he asked her. To quote the buzzword of the day: AWKWARD.
So after Vinny set things right with Jionni, Mike woke the next morning and decided that at last he was ready to apologize to Snooki. He almost sounded sincere. "I'm sorry the way that things went down," he told her. "I'm sorry I ruined our relationship." And when they started talking about how they were the same person, it was kind of touching.
Snooki was hesitant and told him how much he hurt her. In the end she did say she forgave him, but she was still distant. There was no big hug, but rather a high-five. "You awkward man, you," she told him. Still she accepted.
So all was looking up, and once Snooks was cool with Mike, then Vinny, Ron, and Pauly D wanted to take Jionni out for a night on the town ... and grill him. They're very protective of Snooki, which is cute, if not awkward, seeing as how almost half of the guys there had slept with his fiance. But it all went pretty well.
There was one little comment Mike made, however, that pretty much negated his apology to Snooki. When Jionni made a little jab about his past sh*t talking, Mike got defensive. "I wasn't shit talking, I was being honest," he told Jionni. And of course by being honest he means that he's holding firm in his stance that he hooked up with Nicole while she was dating Jionni. Which Nicole denies, and is why she has been pissed at him.
So uh, exactly what was he sorry for? Nothing. He just wanted to smooth things over because he hates being a pariah and probably wants a wedding invite. Jionni didn't react much to that statement I think because he was overwhelmed being there with all of the guys, but I think when he (and Nicole) stops to think about it, they're going to be pissed. Mike's smug reaction to being included in the bachelor party was even more indication of his true intentions. So yeah, nice try with the apology, but you have to actually be sorry for something for it to count.
Did you think Mike's apology was sincere?

Subscribe To New Friends With Kids Clip Is Filled To The Brim With Awkwardness Updates
I've already subscribed
There's nothing in this life quite like the persistent awkwardness that comes after you say the wrong thing to the wrong person. Be it going on a rant about religion only to find out that the person you're talking to is a born-again Christian, going on about how much you hate a book when you're speaking with the author, or threatening to kick somebody's ass only to find out that they are a professional mixed martial arts fighter, there is no moment that lasts longer than an awkward one. Also in that category is explaining how much you dislike kids and then finding out that two of your best friends are pregnant with their first child. Want to know what that last one looks like? Just check out this new clip from Jennifer Westfeldt's Friends With Kids.
The scene opens with an extended version of a scene we already saw most of in the first trailer, it's still really great and there's an excellent flow in the conversation. Watch the clip below, which comes to us courtesy of Moviefone.
The film tells the story of two longtime friends (Adam Scott and Jennifer Westfeldt) who realize that they both want to have a child but aren't in long-term relationships. Their solution is to have a child together, but also stay platonic friends. While their friends (Kristen Wiig, Jon Hamm, Maya Rudolph, Chris O'Dowd) all think it's a crazy idea, it works out well...until both friends start seeing other people (Ed Burns, Megan Fox) and things start to get complicated. Friends With Kids, written and directed by Westfeldt, premiered last year at the Toronto International Film Festival and will be arriving in theaters next week. To see more from the movie, head over to our Blend Film Database.

Praise the Lord! But...
But, as we all know, if the process gets off on the wrong foot, it will very difficult to correct things and snatch success out of the jaws of failure.
Here's just one example of how we could get off on the wrong foot: "I've never liked the gold stripe on the home page. Whatever we do, we should get rid of that."
If that's the way things start, success will be very difficult to achieve. Why? Because arguing about design details that are based solely on personal opinions leads nowhere and can accomplish nothing positive.
The truth is that "design" (i.e., graphic design) is actually a very small part of the redesign process (no offense to graphic designers).
The real work of redesign isn't as simple as blurting out your uneducated opinions on color and layout.
The real work of redesign is more about realigning your site to better meet your users' needs and your university's goals, messaging, branding and strategic priorities than it is about flash animations and pretty pictures.
Build the House Before you Hang the Drapes
Think of the Web site redesign process like building a house. You can't hang the drapes before you build the walls, and you can't build the walls until you have a floor plan, and you can't draw a floor plan until you know the needs of the family that will live there.
Likewise, you can't choose the design elements before you've built a wireframe of the site, and you can't build a wireframe until you've developed an information architecture for the site, and you can't develop an information architecture until you understand the needs of your users and the goals your organization has for the site.
So step one cannot be a discussion of your opinions of the existing site or what you think should be in the new site. It should be all about asking questions. Here's just a few:
- Who are our users?
- What do they want on the site?
- What do they do on the current site?
- What do they like about the current site?
- What do they hate?
- What problems do they have with the current site?
- What/who are we competing against?
- What are they doing?
- What do our users like about other sites?
- What are our goals for the site?
- What do we want our home page to accomplish and for whom?
- What is our brand and how will that be applied to the site?
- What is the message we want to communicate on our home page?
- Do we even have the proper stakeholders involved in the process?
Once you start to ask these questions, you'll realize that you need to gather some actual data and talk to some people in order to get answers to these questions.
That will be the topic of my next post.

Canada played against Germany in an international friendly on Wednesday.
Canada went into the game hoping to rebound after a 3-0 defeat to the US on home soil earlier this month. John Herdman's squad was filled with many familiar faces, including star striker Christine Sinclair and Diana Matheson.
Unfortunately for Canada, there aren't too many positive things to talk about. The team's defence did a fantastic job holding off the Germans in the first half. That being said, most of the game was spent in Canada's half of the field.
This fact brings up the dilemma that has haunted Canada for quite a few years now. The lack of depth in Canada's squad has led to far too many losses. Canadian fans will hide behind the fact that we have one of the best strikers in the women's game in Christine Sinclair. But the she can't do it all herself and, more importantly, she isn't getting any younger.
I feel like a broken record bringing up this issue yet again. But these are the facts. All throughout the game, the Germans did a fantastic job using their pace to their advantage. The Canadian defence held them off for long periods of time. But as time progressed, the continued attack of the German's young players forced turnovers, careless clearances, and costly fouls.
The Germans were given five corners in the first half alone. The Canadian's chances were few and far between, and the Germans did a superb job covering Sinclair and Matheson. In the end, the Canadians lost the match by a goal to nil, and should consider themselves lucky that it wasn't the blowout defeat it could've been.
After all the German's out shot them 19-4, and had a total of 15 corner kick opportunities.
However, there were some positives to be taken away from this loss. First of all Erin Macleod solidified her position as the number one keeper for Canada by making several fantastic saves.
And although Diana Matheson didn't score, she was involved in every one of the chances the team had to score. Also, young players like Melissa Buques and Racheal Melhado used their speed affectively at times as well.
I believe the challenge for Canada right now is finding players. That may seem like a simple task, but it's not, and that's what's hurting Canada most.
They don't have that injection of youth, speed or aggressiveness required to win matches. Herdman has proved that his system works. Now all he needs is a few younger players to come along side the more experienced players, learn from them and help balance out the roster.
I know finding players takes time, but I also hope that Herdman will give the younger players he has now more playing time. After all, sometimes all it takes is a different line-up to win a game.
