ROCK FALLS – Cade Nailor wore his new black eye like a badge of honor, a distinction he earned being the main defender against Dixon scoring dynamo Beau Bailey for most of Saturday night at Tabor Gymnasium.
Nailor – along with the rest of the Rock Falls defenders – hounded Bailey for most of the night, limiting him to 15 points on 6-for-17 shooting as the Rockets beat the Dukes 58-52 in a closely-contested Big Northern battle.
“You have to trust your teammates that if you get beat, you need help to slide over,” Nailor said. “It took a lot of energy on defense, which took away some of my offense.”
Just a week earlier, Geneseo’s Isaiah Rivera scored 40 against Rock Falls (5-1, 2-0 Big Northern) at the Leafs’ Thanksgiving tournament, and despite the Rockets’ 74-67 win in that game, Brad Bickett challenged the integrity of his team for who wanted to be a defensive stopper. It was a wake-up call Nailor and other Rock Falls players needed.
“Beau is just a freak. He’s such a great player who can do so many things,” Bickett said. “He’s as good as it gets. We talked to Cade about being committed. He did a great job on a kid who can flat-out score. He was a beast.”
With the game tied at 50 with 2 minutes to go, Rock Falls junior Dylan Leaf took charge.
“He’s been playing since his freshman year,” Bickett said. “We have high expectations for him.
“I want him to have the ball in his hands late in the game, and we’ll start everything with him” Bickett added. “I thought he did a great job. It’s a growing process.”
Serving as the Rockets’ main ball-handler, Leaf drilled four straight free throws in the final 25 seconds, and took a charge on Dixon’s Derian Duncan with 8.2 ticks left and the Rockets leading 56-52.
“Every time I take a free throw, I take a deep breath and try to zone everybody out,” Leaf said, “just focus on knocking it down.”
Bailey drained two free throws to tie the game for a first time at 48-all with 2:16 remaining, and Keenan Beard’s free throws knotted the game again at 50.
Nailor and Kyle Ellefsen each nailed a pair of free throws for a 54-50 Rockets lead, but Duncan drilled a jumper on the other end to make things interesting.
Gabe Sohn opened the fourth quarter by splitting a pair of free throws, then Bailey swiped a steal off an inbounds pass and laid it in to cut the Rockets’ lead to 41-40. Dixon stayed within striking distance for most of the game, as Oscar Van Sickle’s jumper pulled the Dukes to within four, 41-37, after the third quarter.
“That’s our identity from last year that’s carried over. We’re never out of it,” Dixon coach Nick Oraham said. “The kids are going to fight to the end, and I’m proud of the way they did that.”
Dixon (3-2, 0-1) hit its first two shots of the game, but the Rockets ripped off seven straight points to lead 8-5 lead with 4:42 left in first, highlighted by a turnaround jumper on the baseline by Leaf.
Payton Lawrence’s second steal of the quarter tied things up at 11 for the Dukes. However, Austin Meiners drilled a 3 to give him eight points in the opening quarter, and Leaf made an acrobatic layup off glass to give the Rockets a 16-13 lead after one.
“They made shots from the perimeter early on, crushed us on the offensive glass, and won the 50/50 balls in the first half,” Oraham said. “We were right there, and then had a couple of defensive lapses that made it go the other way.”
A Leaf 3, and a layup and putback by Nailor to start the second gave Rock Falls its only double-digit lead of the contest at 23-13 just a minute into the quarter. A jumper by Bailey stopped the run, and Van Sickle’s third 3 and Bailey’s tough runner cut the Dukes’ deficit to 27-23 with 1:40 to go before halftime. Leaf swiped a steal for a bucket, and Duncan’s three-point play made it 31-26 Rockets at intermission.
Leaf led all scorers with 20 points, adding four rebounds, three assists and three steals. Meiners finished with 11 points, three rebounds, three assists and two steals, while Nailor had 10 points, seven rebounds, two assists and two steals for Rock Falls. Keyon Wolber pitched in nine points.
“A win like this against a good team like that is great for our record, and for later on when it comes to regional seeding,” Leaf said. “It’s also huge to start out in conference looking toward a conference championship and going into our holiday tournaments.”
Bailey added six rebounds and two steals to go with his team-high 15 points. Van Sickle had 11 points, six rebounds and two assists for Dixon, while Duncan also tossed in 11 points. Beard was 3-for-3 from the field and 2-for-2 from the free-throw line for his eight points.
The Rockets have now won the last three against the Dukes, including last year’s regional championship played at Tabor Gymnasium.
“There’s really not a lot of difference between the two teams. We just had the run at the end,” Bickett said. “Both teams have kids that play a lot of minutes and can shoot it and do a little bit of everything. There wasn’t much margin for error. I think you’ll see both of these teams get better and better as the year goes on.”
Rock Falls 58, Dixon 52

|Tutorial: Anger And Anger Management
WHAT ARE ANGER AND ANGER MANAGEMENT TECHNIQUES?
Anger is an emotional state that can be expressed as irritation, at one extreme, or as out-of-control rage at the other extreme, with many shades of behavior falling in between. As with other emotions, there are physiological changes associated with anger, including increased heart rate, flushed face, elevated blood pressure and increased volume of verbal output. Adrenaline may flow with its associated surge in strength. This anger system has value in that it helps people to fight off legitimate threats. However, anger and responses to anger often lead to trouble under everyday circumstances.
Many different events can result in an individual experiencing anger, including both internal events (e.g., perceived failure, frustration, perceived injustice) and external events (e.g., loss of an object or privilege, teasing or threats from others). Anger can result in externalizing behaviors (e.g., lashing out, verbal aggression, tantrums) or internalizing behaviors (e.g., shutting down, withdrawing, sulking, increased depression) or both. Most commonly, individuals respond to anger with aggression, since the biological function of anger is to enable us to fight off threats.
Anger management refers to techniques that individuals can use to regulate their feelings of anger and modulate their responses to those feelings. It also includes techniques that others can use to help the individual avoid situations that elicit or trigger anger and to help calm the person down once angered. These techniques are discussed below.
WHY ARE ANGER AND ANGER MANAGEMENT IMPORTANT FOR SOME STUDENTS AFTER TBI?
Anger and anger management are important issues for many students. However, they are particularly important for students with brain injury for several reasons. First, the part of the brain that modulates our emotional responses the bottom sides of the prefrontal parts of the brain is vulnerable to damage following a in brain injury. As a result, a situation that might make most students at most irritated may well result in a rapid and uncontrolled escalation of anger for the student after the brain injury.
Second, students with brain injury often have reduced ability to correctly “read” social situations and the intent of others’ behavior. When social cues are misread for example, if a student perceives someone making an insulting remark when none was intended the student may understandably feel anger, and based on this an incorrect interpretation, may respond with what seems as excessive or inappropriate levels of anger at the behavior of others.
Third, students with brain often have real losses that they are angry about. For example, they may not do things as well as they are accustomed to doing them; they may have restrictions on their activities that are frustrating; they may have lost friends. In some combination, these changes can easily result in the student feeling heightened levels of frustration and anger.
WHAT ARE THE MAIN THEMES IN INSTRUCTION AND SUPPORT FOR STUDENTS WITH BRAIN INJURY WHO NEED HELP WITH ANGER MANAGEMENT STRATEGIES?
Supports for students to address anger management include proper identification of the anger, behavioral strategies modeled or taught by adults and clinical support for the student in order to learn how to address limitations in a successful fashion. Each of these areas is addressed below:
1. Understanding the Problem: Identification of Anger. The first step in dealing with anger is to ensure that it is truly anger that we are dealing with. Sometimes aggression is interpreted as an anger response, when in fact it is attention seeking or serves some other purpose. It is important to be certain that the observed responses are truly the student’s response to the feeling of anger.
2. Environmental Management: Implementation of Anger Management Approaches by Adults in Authority
a. Removing Clear Provocation for Anger: Teachers and parents should know what the people or events are that typically provoke anger in the student (i.e., “triggers”) and attempt to remove these provocations proactively from the student’s daily routines. As the student become aware of these triggers, removal or minimization of triggers can be gradually turned over to the student to monitor.
[See Tutorial on Behavior Management: Prevention Strategies.]
b. Using Calm Times Wisely: When the student is in an emotionally calm state, adults should find opportunities to talk about difficulty the students have in controlling anger and about the limits that this might impose on what the student can do. These conversations should be balanced with talk of things that are going well, with plans for success, and with opportunities for the student to engage in positive roles that do not involve anger or aggression. Adults can also highlight the positive behavior of others and talk about how they have learned to control their anger and therefore become more successful.
c. Facilitating a Self-Concept Associated with Effective Anger Management: Some students develop a sense of self that includes aggression as a positive component. The student may come to think of himself or herself as a “tough guy” or “tough girl”, and resist efforts at anger management because “that’s not me; I’m a tough guy.” In these cases, it is critical to address the self-concept issue while also addressing anger management. These student may be helped by counseling to develop a sense of self that is compelling, but that also includes control of anger and other emotions as a positive feature. Anger management must be seen as strength, not weakness.
[See Tutorial on Sense of Self.]
3. Anger Management Procedures Acquired By Students In Collaboration With Others: Focused attention by school staff and/or involvement of professional counselors may be necessary to teach students adequate coping skills to deal with anger. Steps include the following:
a. Learning to be assertive versus aggressive: Dangerous responses to angry feelings lie on both ends of a continuum of responses. At one end, the student responds with aggression, lashing out at perceived threats or annoyance. This has obvious negative implications for the student and those around him. At the other end, the student suppresses angry feelings. This likely results in the anger being expressed covertly as passive aggression, cynicism, sarcasm, critical thinking about others or internalized as either physical complaints or depression. Neither of these extreme responses at the ends of the continuum is likely to lead to positive outcomes, like friendship and peer acceptance.
Between these two extremes lie two positive responses to angry feelings, both of which should be fostered. First is assertive (not aggressive) expression of these feelings. The student who is appropriately assertive recognizes his anger and can state why he is upset. These assertions serve the additional purpose of having the student verify that the perceived reason for anger is valid. The assertive student then tries to deal with the anger in a problem solving manner, without losing control. Second, the student may learn techniques to calm himself when angered (discussed below), knowing that in the final analysis, we can only control ourselves..
b. Self-Monitoring: Many students, particularly young children, experience the physiological correlates of anger without knowing what the emotion is, without being able to attach a word to it it is simply a nameless feeling that leads to negative behavior. Young students and older students with significant disability may need to learn that there is a name for these feelings and that we can understand them and even control them. Similarly, many students “catastrophize” small issues into major issues without realizing that they are doing this. They may use absolute or extreme terminology when describing their situation: “I never get a chance” “She always makes fun of me” “I never do anything right” and so on. With counseling, students can become more aware of this distortion in their thinking, the negative effects of their habit, and that “catastrophizing” makes a difficult situation much more difficult. Practice describing the realities of their situation in objective and accurate terms may be useful for these students.
c. Self-Calming: Particularly students who tend to over-react to even mild irritations, should developing a self-script in which they evaluate the seriousness of the situation. For example, students can be taught to ask themselves, “Is this really a big deal or a little deal?” and “Am I sure that what I am doing will help me?” These scripts of self-regulation can be internalized if they are used by others in the environment in a routine manner.
[See Tutorial on Self-Regulation]
d. Learning that One Can Only Control Oneself: For many people, their primary source of anger is what other people do or don’t do. They find the behavior of others to be disrespectful, unfair, unkind, or otherwise irritating, and they react angrily. The most important insight that these students can internalize is that they have no control over the behavior of others, only themselves. Furthermore, if the other person was in fact trying to hurt them in some way, then the anger response makes that other person the winner. Normally it is the student who reacts angrily who gets in trouble with authorities, or becomes very upset, or in some other way suffers a loss from the encounter. To be a winner is to refrain from reacting and therefore frustrating the other person the source of the irritation.
4. Avoid “Letting It All Hang Out”: While some say that it is therapeutic to express anger and just “let it all hang out”, such expression is typically short term and most likely to be counter-productive in the long run. First, it does nothing to address the underlying problem of unmodulated responses to angry feelings. Second, people may be hurt and relationships irreparably damaged.

“Volte” is a 13-minute film that touches on the theme of growing up and the fragility, stress and difficulty that come with it. The film profiles Zuzia, 12, in her own coming-of-age moment as she navigates her changing body and her position on her vaulting team.
1. Watch the short film above. While you watch, you might take notes using our Film Club Double-Entry Journal (PDF) to help you remember specific moments.
2. After watching, think about these questions:
• What moments in this film stood out for you? Why?
• Were there any surprises? Anything that challenged what you know — or thought you knew?
• What messages, emotions or ideas will you take away from this film? Why?
• What questions do you still have?
3. An additional challenge: What connections can you make between this film and your own life or experience? Why? Does this film remind you of anything else you’ve read or seen? If so, how and why?
4. Next, join the conversation by clicking on the comment button and posting in the box that opens on the right. (Students 13 and older are invited to comment, although teachers of younger students are welcome to post what their students have to say.)
5. After you have posted, try reading back to see what others have said, then respond to someone else by posting another comment. Use the “Reply” button or the @ symbol to address that student directly.
6. To learn more, read “Coming of Age on Horseback.” Monika Kotecka and Karolina Poryzala write:
As filmmakers, we have always been interested in the theme of maturation and have long sought to portray the process authentically through film. Coming-of-age is a highly visual subject: You can tell a story about it without unnecessary words, focusing instead on image and sound. In this film, we found a story line where we could bring our assumptions onto the screen while also connecting to our childhood experiences.
Ultimately, we decided to profile a young girl competing in equestrian vaulting, a sport in which success is based mainly on the visual impression a contestant makes on the public and the judges. Judges reward the level of perfection in movements, as well as the extent to which the participants, who are of different ages, coordinate in synchronization.
Meeting the vaulting team Volteo, which we ultimately profiled in this film, transformed our perspective on maturation. The team has a strict hierarchy, where the role of each girl depends on her skills and age. As the girls grow, they take on new responsibilities, which generally grow less desirable with age. After they grow too large for the “flying” stage, where they are cast into the air, they must become the responsible vaulters occupying lower, less glamorous positions as the “base.” This cycle seems very similar to life in general.

Developers often experience problems when deploying software. For every app, there are tens or hundreds of libraries which need to be installed, sometimes in a particular order and with specific version numbers. Each operating system is slightly different, so the process of deploying an app on a new computer can be quite difficult.
Container deployment solves a lot of these configuration issues. The app runs in a container, which is a virtualized environment. The container will execute the exact same way on every machine. In theory, this makes it easier to deploy since you can choose any machine to use as the server. There is no configuration necessary - your app should simply run on the machine you’ve chosen.
Docker is the most popular tool for containerizing apps. Docker images are created using a Dockerfile. Buildpacks can be used to generate a Dockerfile for a Python application.
curl -sSL "https://github.com/buildpacks/pack/releases/download/v0.15.0/pack-v0.15.0-linux.tgz" | sudo tar -C /usr/local/bin/ --no-same-owner -xzv pack
Build the Python app image. After the following command completes, you should be able to view the app image in the Docker GUI.
pack build testrepo/testcontainer:18.104.22.168 --builder heroku/buildpacks:18
Run the app image, using Docker.
docker run --rm -p 8080:8080 testrepo/testcontainer:22.214.171.124

Claudio Osorio once lived in a Star Island mansion overlooking Biscayne Bay.
Today the accused international con man remains stuck in a tiny jail cell in downtown Miami.
Arrested earlier this month, Osorio is awaiting trial on federal charges accusing him of fleecing $50 million from investors and the U.S. government.
Osorio’s defense attorney, Orlando do Campo, said Monday his client chose not to challenge the government’s position that he should be held without bail, citing a recent problem in his bankruptcy case. Osorio, 54, is being held in the Federal Detention Center in downtown Miami.
Magistrate Judge Jonathan Goodman originally granted Osorio a $1 million bond, including a $100,000 deposit to be made by his mother-in-law who lives in his native Venezuela. But the judge put it on hold so that a federal prosecutor, a bankruptcy trustee and Osorio’s bankruptcy lawyer could address a dispute over the source of the defendant’s funds.
The bankruptcy trustee is seeking to have Osorio found in contempt of court for allegedly forging a letter from a Canadian bank that purportedly claimed it had turned over all financial records related to his defunct company, InnoVida Holdings.
Osorio is accused of using the Miami Beach-based company, which claimed to produce high-tech building panels for low-cost housing in Haiti and other countries, to deceive investors and boost his lifestyle.
Last year, a bankruptcy judge ordered Osorio to sell the one major asset that belonged to him and his wife, Amarilis. The couple auctioned their one-acre, two-story Star Island home with infinity pool for $12.7 million. The sale of the heavily mortgaged property generated millions for banks and other lenders, and some money for his burned investors, including NBA star Carlos Boozer and Miami-Dade businessman Chris Korge.
Osorio, who once hosted fundraisers for Hillary Clinton, Barack Obama and other big-time politicians at the Star Island home, was allowed to keep at least $500,000 of the sales proceeds.
In July, he and his wife paid nearly $924,000 for a four-bedroom, five-bathroom condominium in Aventura — but now federal prosecutors have moved to seize the property as part of the criminal case, which was investigated by the FBI.
According to an indictment, Osorio conspired to swindle $40 million from 10 investors and an additional $10 million from a federal government program between 2006 and 2011. He was formerly charged with wire fraud and money laundering.
A codefendant, Craig S. Toll, 64, of Pembroke Pines, who worked as InnoVida’s chief financial officer, was granted a $50,000 bond before trial. Toll’s attorney, Richard Klugh, said his client should not have been named in the indictment because he has committed no wrongdoing.
The indictment also refers to an “unindicted co-conspirator” who personally benefitted from Osorio’s alleged business scam. Although not identified by name, the co-conspirator is Osorio’s wife, Amarilis, according to sources familiar with the case.
The wife attended Monday’s bond hearing, but said nothing.
The arraignment for Osorio and Toll is set for Friday.

Kushner’s security downgrade will hinder but not halt his Mideast peace role
The United States’ efforts to broker an elusive peace to end the decades-old Israeli-Palestinian conflict are now being led by a White House official who has been stripped of his access to top secret information.
The access of President Donald Trump’s senior adviser Jared Kushner to top secret and sensitive compartmented information was — for now, temporarily — revoked amid a series of reforms to the security clearance process led by the White House chief of staff.
But five former top US officials who have tackled Middle East peace before Kushner told CNN they believe he will be able to continue overseeing the US peace efforts and to engage in direct negotiations — even if it makes his task more difficult.
“Honestly, over the years in all the negotiations I did, I found that the intelligence is not as important as the direct meetings. The intelligence was not a big factor when it came to doing the negotiations themselves,” said Dennis Ross, who served as a US envoy to the peace process under Republican and Democratic administrations. “It’s not to say it wouldn’t help him.”
Ross’ assessment was generally shared by four other former US envoys and ambassadors to the region who have sought to resolve the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. But the officials also agreed that it was unusual — if not unprecedented — for the US official spearheading the peace negotiations to not have a top-level security clearance.
White House chief of staff John Kelly also says Kushner will be able to perform the task, saying he has “full confidence in (Kushner’s) ability to continue performing his duties in his foreign policy portfolio, including overseeing our Israeli-Palestinian peace effort.”
Still, with his security clearance status downgraded, Kushner will no longer be able to access a host of classified information that could enhance his understanding of the security conditions and sensitive US and foreign activities in the delicate Middle East. And he can no longer be present for discussions about information classified as top secret or sensitive compartmented information, and foreign officials could be unwilling to discuss highly classified intelligence they have collected.
A key first test of Kushner’s ability to oversee the peace process in spite of the changes could come Monday, when Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu visits the White House for discussions with Trump.
Martin Indyk, a former US ambassador to Israel who tackled peace negotiations during the Clinton and Obama administrations, said Kushner’s lost access will make his job “more difficult” but that it’s “not a critical setback.”
“What matters to the actors out in the region more than whether he has the confidence of the intelligence community is whether he has the confidence of the President. The fact that he is the son-in-law of the President gives him a lot of cachet in the region,” Indyk said. “I have no doubt that he can still do his job — and of course his aides will have access.”
Elliott Abrams, who was a deputy national security adviser under President George W. Bush, said in an email he believes Kushner “will be fully capable of continuing to oversee American involvement in the peace process” because his secret-level clearance will allow him “to see 100% of the diplomatic reporting.”
Kushner, alongside Trump’s special representative for international negotiations Jason Greenblatt, has spent the last year meeting with key actors in the region and formulating a peace proposal the US plans to soon present to Israeli and Palestinian officials.
But before launching into that endeavor, Kushner had never before served in government nor had tackled Middle East peace negotiations in any other capacity — a relatively fledgling status that Aaron David Miller, a former US negotiator on Middle East peace, said makes Kushner’s loss of access to classified information a particularly troublesome blow.
“You can develop a real feel for how Israelis and Palestinians are going to respond, but that takes years of immersion. For a guy who is just coming into this cold, the classified intel can be important,” Miller said. “The Israeli-Palestinian negotiation isn’t going to play out in a vacuum.”
Miller said he worried that Kushner’s diminished access to classified information will put him at a disadvantage in speaking with Israeli and Arab officials with the latest classified intelligence — and in his ability to critically assess that foreign intelligence.
But Kushner’s downgraded access may not be a problem in the short term.
The White House has said Kushner and Greenblatt are in the process of “finalizing” their peace plan but have yet to present it to Israeli and Palestinian officials — meaning detailed negotiations are still a long way off, if they ever take place.
“In any negotiation, the devil’s going to be in the details at the end of the day. The President doesn’t need to know all those details, but your negotiator does because the other parties do know them,” said Daniel Kurtzer, a career US diplomat who served as US ambassador to Israel from 2001 to 2005.
For now, though, the issue is theoretical. Experts on the Israeli-Palestinian conflict have little hope that the latest US effort to broker peace will gain traction.
In the wake of the US decision late last year to recognize Jerusalem as Israel’s capital, Palestinian officials have rejected the US’ role as an honest broker in the peace process. And the US in return has begun to withhold millions of dollars in aid to the Palestinians. In Israel, meanwhile, the prime minister’s political fate is uncertain after Israeli police said there was “sufficient evidence” to indict him on criminal corruption charges.
And the gaps in the Israeli and Palestinian positions on key issues related to the peace process appear as wide as ever.
“Whether Jared Kushner has access to classified information or not is not going to bring him any closer to solving the mission impossible. What it will do is allow him, presumably, to be credible, to be seen to be knowledgeable, to know what he doesn’t know and to be professional about this,” Miller said. “This is going to make mission impossible even harder.”

Hui Cai is making an impact in the industry on three fronts: educating the next generation of industry professionals, leading research in underserved regions, and collaborating with industry partners and professional committees.
In the classroom, Cai, who received her Ph.D. in 2011 from Georgia Institute of Technology, aims to connect education, research, and design using an evidence-based design approach, which she has developed through a variety of experiences, starting with working as a health worker. and research leader in CallisonRTKL From 2012 to 2013 to teach lectures and studios for healthcare design at the University of Missouri 2013-2014. She joined the University of Kansas (KU) faculty in 2014 as an assistant professor. In 2019, she was appointed Associate Director of the School’s Institute for Health and Wellness Design (IHWD), where she led the education of the Graduate Certificate Program for Health and Wellness Design, and this summer was appointed as the chair of the Department of Architecture.
As a researcher, she has addressed underserved areas, including behavioral health and rural hospital design, to help draw students’ attention to these topics. In 2020, Cai developed a research-based interdisciplinary design seminar with Professor Debajyoti Pati and interior design students from Texas Tech University, while sharing the collaborative class with rural hospital CEOs and other leaders on design approaches in response to the COVID-19 pandemic.
To further excite students’ passion, she has engaged them in hands-on field studies and research publications, and in 2020 she has directed graduate students in post-occupancy assessment research on the effects of visibility and accessibility of hand sanitizer dispensers on nurses’ hand hygiene compliance, with work published in Journal of Healthy Environment Research and Design (HERD). At the start of the COVID-19 pandemic, she worked with colleagues at KU and the American Institute of Architects to launch ArchMap, an online database and dashboard documenting design and construction efforts at alternative care sites. In addition, she transferred her expertise to the Facilities Guidance Institute (FGI) by participating in the 2020 Health Guidelines Review Committee Topic Group for Rural Health and the Small and Rural Health Subcommittee of the Emergency Committee.
What do you love most about your job?
One of the parts I love is the potential impact it could have on healthcare designers and medical planners in the future. I am pleased to be able to help students find their passion for healthcare design and begin to understand the effects that the healthcare environment can have on patients, families, and healthcare professionals. It has been particularly evident over the past year when students have been involved in designing alternative care sites to increase capacity for COVID-19 patients, and have realized the important value of healthcare designers’ work in everyone’s lives.
What industry challenges do you hope to solve?
Health disparities in rural communities and lack of support for rural health care facilities. More research is needed to support health care designers to develop evidence-based designs in rural health care facilities to provide more efficient care suited to the unique rural context.
What is the next major trend for healthcare design?
Integrating telemedicine that delivers safety and efficiency with human-centered care that provides a high-quality personalized experience. Future healthcare design will also have built-in flexibility and better emergency preparedness.
Who/what inspires you?
I have been fortunate to have worked with many great mentors, such as Dr. Craig Zimmering, Dr. Kent Sprekelmayer, and Dr. Frank Zelm. They are role models for me and inspire me to be a good teacher like them.
What have you learned over the past year?
Flexibility and adaptability. The past year has presented great challenges in many aspects, but I was amazed at how resilient we were as a society. I think the key is to be flexible and adaptable, and always maintain a positive attitude.

I'm resurrecting the blog to, I hope, chronicle the Eat Local Challenge I am planning for the month of October.
Basically what this means is that, with very few exceptions, I make a commitment to eat only food whose origins are in a 250 radius of Manchester, NH, for an entire month. I will blog more about why I am doing this as I go along, for sure.
The first I heard about this challenge was in late September of last year, when I stumbled across this blog. As it was much too late to embark on such an undertaking with only 3 days to prepare, I follwed this brave blogger through her Eat Local adventure. She has 2 little kids and a husband as well. I only have to feed me!
Anyway, inspired to at least start looking around and paying attention to where the food I eat comes from, and looking for local alternatives, I decided to participate in October 2009. OK, but want to hear something funny? I thought the Eat Local Challenge was some big national event that people from all over the country were doing! Um...I was wrong. In fact, a visit to their website shows that it hasn't been updated since March 2009. Where are you local eaters?
I have to say I have done pretty well with finding local sources of some of my food. Note the "some" part. I gotta lotta work to do in September folks if I am going to pull this off!! Now, I do have a rather extensive file I have been compiling of sources of things like flour and oats that I need to sit with and place orders for anything I might need shipped to me by 9/15. I'd like to not do that though, but realistically, I might have to. I will post a blog entry which I will update as I find more, of all the local products/resources I have found so far. And if anyone out there can add to this list, PLEASE leave a comment or email me!!
OK, true story. Tonight I decided to get on Google Maps and find my 250 mile radius. I figured I would mainly be making my purchases from NH and ME, which was good because everyone knows most of our potato crop comes from northern Maine, right? Right. And guess how far away Houlton, ME is? over 300 miles. Seriously Maine people, that is one big ass state you have there. And, somewhere in the back of my mind I knew that. I was reminded of a few 8+ hour trips from Boston to Presque Isle chain smoking in my dads old Dodge Dart - but that is another story! So, first lesson learned tonight is that my 250 mile radious extends, if you can believe this, all the way to NYC!! (248 mi, I kid you not). However, I am drawing the line at the Connecticut border. Rhode Island and Massachusetts also make the cut. That said, I am going to try and keep it within a 100 mi radius if at all possible. My local Farmer's Market is going to be very profitable in the next 6 weeks!
So, I have alot to do, and alot to write about in the next 30 days prior to starting my challenge. If you want to do it too, let me know. Oh, and on top of this, I have also been tracking what I eat in an attempt to eat healthier (it's working, I've lost 7.5 lbs) and I'm exercising ALOT more and feeling really great!
Over dinner last night, my daughter was asking me about how my prepping for this challenge was going. I said good, but that I was stressing a little bit over getting enough protein, as local sources were kinda pricy, so I would have to budget carefully. I mentioned a few other things, and this horrified look crossed her face and she said, "Mom, you're not going to starve, are you?" I assured her that no, I would not starve. I seriously think I could barely eat for a month and live off the fat of this here land. Although with my luck, my body would manage to store fat anyway! (If there is one thing I have learned in the last 4 weeks it's that my body really WILL drop the pounds if I eat more).
I will leave you with this thought...over the weekend, a friend mentioned that movie, Food, Inc (which I am going to see this week) and asked "why would you want to know where your food comes from?" My answer - why wouldn't you?

The Australian selectors have lost patience with Shaun and Mitchell Marsh, axing the pair for the Test squad to play Sri Lanka later this month.
Cricket Australia confirmed on Wednesday afternoon that the Marsh brothers’ dumping would make room in the squad for 20-year-old Victorian batsman Will Pucovksi.
Pucovski’s shock call-up comes at the expense of fellow Victorian Peter Handscomb. Aaron Finch has also been dumped from the squad, while Queenslanders Matt Renshaw and Joe Burns return to the Test set-up.
Tim Paine (c), Josh Hazlewood (vc), Joe Burns, Pat Cummins, Marcus Harris, Travis Head, Usman Khawaja, Marnus Labuschagne, Nathan Lyon, Will Pucovski, Matt Renshaw, Mitchell Starc, Peter Siddle
Every Test, ODI, T20I, and BBL match live & ad-break free during play. SIGN UP NOW!
Pucovski gave a remarkably candid interview for Fox Cricket’s ‘Follow-On’ podcast this week regarding his mental health battle.
But it is the omission of the Marsh brothers that will re-shape the national batting line-up most significantly.
Shaun has made single figure scores in 10 of his last 16 innings, while Mitch has not reached 20 in any of his last 10 Test digs.
The older of the two brothers now appears at long odds to play in the 2019 Ashes, while Mitch’s topsy-turvy international career has taken another twist just two months after he was named co vice-captain for the UAE tour.
Mitch’s last 13 innings for Australia have yielded just 129 runs at an average of 9.9. He has taken three wickets in his last 82 overs at Test level.
Shaun has made one 50 in his last 19 knocks for Australia and at 35, may have played his final Test. His long-form efforts have not reflected his one-day international numbers, where he has crafted three tons in his last six innings in the 50-over game.
PUCOVSKI’S BATTLE WITH MENTAL ILLNESS: ‘Outside didn’t match up with the inside’
IN THE FIRING LINE: The six Aussies sweating on their spots for Sri Lanka series
Meanwhile, the leading run-scorer in the Sheffield Shield – Matthew Wade – has been overlooked again, despite averaging 60 this summer and continuing his good form in the Big Bash League.
Pucovski will be the 34th youngest Australian Test debutant, wedged between Ricky Ponting and Damien Martyn.
Handscomb was left out of the MCG Test, recalled for Sydney but a gutsy 37 off 111 balls was not enough to save him.
Queensland opener Joe Burns has also earned a Test recall after making his last appearance in South Africa as one of three replacements for the ball-tampering trio.
His outstanding average in the Shield at the Gabba (66.25) is believed to be a major factor in his selection.
Burns’ Queensland teammate Matt Renshaw also earned a recall despite just averaging just 19.90 in the Shield this season.
Handscomb’s omission is a bitter blow for the right-hander, who would have fancied himself against a run-of-the-mill Sri Lankan bowling attack, especially on a notoriously flat wicket in Canberra.
And despite the selectors handing the 27 year-old a surprise call-up to the one-day international squad to face India – largely thanks to a productive JLT series – Handscomb’s Ashes hopes now rest on a knife’s edge.
The condensed cricketing schedule now means Handscomb may have limited opportunities to press his case for the England series, starting in August.
If he performs against India, there is every chance he will be selected to face Virat Kohli and co on their home soil in a five-match limited overs series, beginning on February 24 and running through to March 8.
But at the same time Australia is touring India, Victoria will have resumed their Sheffield Shield season.
Handscomb has played 16 Tests, averaging 38.91 with the bat and making two centuries.

Romano’s Macaroni Grill has filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection.
It closed nearly 40 unprofitable locations this year.
The company says its 93 remaining restaurants will stay open, and that the filing was to done to shed legal liabilities.
Industry experts say more customers are opting for cheaper, faster chains, while younger diners prefer non-chain restaurants.
There are two Romano’s Macaroni Grill restaurants in Hawaii.
One is at Ala Moana Center on Oahu, and the other is located in Waikoloa on Hawaii island.
The two locations are franchises, and a representative says they are not affected by the bankruptcy protection filing.
She says the Hawaii locations are some of the most successful restaurants in the chain.

Eternally fresh. That’s how Grieg’s Piano Concerto is described by programme notes, Classic FM, etc. Though, to be honest, eternally stale is nearer the mark. No 19th-century warhorse has been submitted to such regular thrashing since it was written in 1868. In the early days of the Proms, where I heard it last week, they would sometimes schedule it twice in one season.
Don’t get me wrong: the work is a masterpiece. Edvard Grieg’s only masterpiece, indeed, which is sad, considering that he composed it at the age of 25 and produced nothing of comparable stature in the remaining 40 years of his life. It begins with a drum roll followed by the most celebrated rhetorical flourish in the history of piano concertos — a cannonade of double octaves fired down the keyboard. I asked a pianist friend if it was nerve-racking to play. Not normally, he said — but if by any chance one of your hands misjudges an octave, then even the deaf old lady in the gods will notice. (There’s a live recording by Michelangeli with a minuscule smudge in the phrase, which must have mortified the icy perfectionist.)
The Grieg is not only full of lovely tunes: it also develops them using piquant, occasionally savage harmonies that were years ahead of their time. Antony Hopkins, the composer and broadcaster whose Talking About Music series was one of the glories of Radio 3 in the 1970s (and who’s happily still with us, aged 91), reckons that, ‘apart from Wagner, Grieg should be given credit for being one of the very first composers to use harmony of quite such chromatic richness. Certainly he must have had a considerable influence on Delius.’ Actually, Delius once teased Ravel that fin de siècle French music was ‘simply Grieg plus the Third Act of Tristan’. Ravel conceded the point — but then he loved Grieg and once had the honour of playing one of the Norwegian Dances to the composer. ‘More rhythm!’ said Grieg, jumping up from his chair and skipping around the room to demonstrate Nordic peasant steps. Must have been quite a sight, given that he was about the size of a goblin.
You can hear that skipping motion in the finale of the Piano Concerto. But any rustic naivety is offset by the sophistication of the solo writing. The first-movement cadenza, in particular, surrounds a fortissimo statement of the main theme with sparkling trills and smoochy arpeggios that had early audiences reaching for the smelling salts. It was Grieg, not Schumann or Tchaikovsky, who taught composers how to introduce great splashes of showing-off into their concertos. He spawned dozens and dozens of imitations by now forgotten figures; I have a long-term project to listen to every neglected romantic piano concerto on record, and it’s hard not to curse Grieg for giving modestly talented professors of music such fancy ideas.
I wasn’t cursing him at the Proms, though. I was there not for the piece but for the performer: Steven Osborne, a self-effacing Scottish pianist whose delicacy of touch is allied to a gigantic technique. In the French repertoire, I’d choose his Debussy Preludes, Ravel Gaspard and Messiaen Vingt Regards (all on Hyperion) above even Pierre-Laurent Aimard; you have to go back to Gieseking to find a pianist who can make the keyboard whisper so tenderly. Osborne didn’t disappoint in the Grieg, lifting and tinting the textures so expertly that it sounded as if he was switching between different pianos. The BBC Philharmonic under John Storgårds didn’t match him for colour, but never mind.
Given that the level of invention in the piece is so high, why does it often fail to capture our imagination? It’s not just that we’ve heard it too often. As my pianist friend explained — and you’d never guess this from listening to it — the Grieg is not terribly difficult to play compared with other concertos. This encourages good musicians to get lazy, and soloists with rudimentary skills to release their inner Liberace.
For an example of the latter, try listening to a 1954 recording of the Grieg Piano Concerto by Winifred Atwell, the Trinidadian honky-tonk pianist who was the first black person to have a Number One hit in the UK singles chart. She is accompanied by the London Philharmonic Orchestra under Stanford Robinson and makes a decent fist of it, at least most of the time. But Decca failed to push the record very hard — possibly because, alas, Atwell slows down during the difficult bits. Not even Grieg’s evergreen masterpiece can survive that.

A photo of a 37-year-old schizophrenic homeless man named Kelly Thomas that was taken in the hospital by his father Ron Thomas, a former Orange County Sheriff’s Deputy. Thomas was fatally beaten by Fullerton Police officers on July 5, 2011 following attempts to search his backpack due to reports of someone “looking into cars” in the area. Multiple videos of the beating exist, including surveillance footage that has yet to be released by the Orange County District Attorney, and a large number of witnesses have come forward confirming the extremely excessive use of force by the six officers that were attempting to subdue Thomas. One officer in particular was reportedly responsible for beating Thomas repeatedly in the back of the head with a Taser until Thomas began to bleed profusely, as well as dropping his knee against the back of Thomas’ head leading to fractures in his face and the crushing of his windpipe. This officer has been identified as Jay Cicinelli, a former LAPD officer who was shot within weeks of leaving the academy and now only has one eye. The beating is now being investigated by the FBI.

Hotels, motels, and other lodging facilities have been used by extremist individuals and groups as locations to manufacture improvised explosive devices (IEDs) in close proximity to their intended targets. Hotels, specifically rooms with kitchens or kitchenettes, allow these groups or individuals to greatly reduce the potential for a premature detonation. Given the short distance to the intended target the risk of premature detonation during transportation is minimized.
Infiltration of any law enforcement agency by a gang member can have severe ramifications for the agency involved, its employees, the public it serves, and its allied agencies. Gangs employ various tactics to include infiltrating an agency directly or indirectly, to achieve their objective; to counter this threat, law enforcement must remain cognizant of and employ mitigation strategies. Gangs’ motivations for infiltrating agencies vary; thus law enforcement must remain cognizant of suspicious employee behavior, identify possible motivations for infiltration, and employ mitigation strategies to counter infiltration threats.

A new kind of methamphetamine that has a strawberry flavor and bright pink coloring was seized for the first time in Carson City, Nevada during a search of an apartment on January 27, 2007. Flavored methamphetamine is the newest metamorphosis of the dangerous street drug. It appears that the flavor and color were added to the meth during the cooking process, instead of afterward, which would mean the drug does not have any less potency than its common counterpart. The colored and flavored methamphetamine, known as “Strawberry Quick” in the Sacramento, California area and now in Carson City, is popular among new users who snort it because the flavoring can cut down on the taste.
The international headquarters of Church of Scientology, also called the Gold Base or Int Base, is located on a 500-acre parcel of land in San Jacinto in Riverside County, California. The Church of Scientology purchased the site, a former resort used by celebrities, in 1978. Many of Scientology’s organizations are headquartered there, including the Religious Technology Center, the Commodore’s Messenger Organization International and Golden Era Productions. Golden Era Productions manufactures the E-Meter and produces and distributes all church audio-visual materials, both internal and promotional. The motif of the facility is designed to look like a Scottish castle, perhaps as a reference to one of Hubbard’s largest ideological inspirations Aleister Crowley. Like Mr. Crowley’s Boleskine House, which is located near Loch Ness, Scotland, Mr. Hubbard also refers to his house in a singular epithet “Bonnie View”.

|UK Garage Will Never Die But You Will|
|The Dicklick Brigade|
|Released||February 1, 2014|
|Recorded||February 1, 2014|
|Produced by||popebread !7qm651GBkw|
UK Garage Will Never Die But You Will is the one-hundred-and-second studio album by The Dicklick Brigade, originally recorded and released on February 1, 2014. This was the first DLB studio album produced off the cuff since MalcolmMooney's hiatus began, provided by a mysterious cast of Dick Lickers. The album is available for download here: no active link The original thread can be viewed here:
Produced suddenly in the absence of Malcom Mooney, DLB's supposedly 101st comeback album is actually not a comeback album. Uniamously decided by critics and fans alike, UK Garage is really nothing more than "an irrelvant side-EP composed of afterthoughts and b-sides".
Offcial release for the album struggled in pressing, packaging and promotion. Funding for the album was shotty. Only 100 copies were pressed worldwide. Most people would only hear about the existence of the album through Spotify streams, trackers, blogs, or music publications discussing or reviewing the album.
Many bootlegs surfaced as a result for the diehards. Any real copy would prove to be a hard find.

A veteran Sheffield rambler has walked 1,000 times – and he would walk 1,000 more.
Frank Hanson, aged 88, has pulled on his walking boots for the 1,000th occasion as a member of the Wednesday Rambling Group.
The Gleadless grandfather, the club’s oldest member, joined after he retired in 1990 and has kept a record of every walk he has been on ever since.
Now he has notched up 1,000 treks by joining fellow members on an eight-mile ramble around Outwood, West Yorkshire.
Frank, of Charnock View Road, said: “I’d heard about these walkers - they used to meet in Fitzalan Square.
“I retired on the day before my 65th birthday in February 1990 and I got around to going down to Fitzalan Square on March 7.
“I worked indoors for most of my working life so I enjoyed the walk and carried on with them from then on.”
Fellow rambling group member Peter Kettleborough, said: “He did a 10-and-a-half mile walk a couple of weeks ago. Some of us young ones can’t keep up with him.
“He is a tremendous bloke. He’s had skin cancer and all sorts, but when you walk with him he is singing away or reminiscing about the war.
“For an 88-year-old man, he is absolutely tremendous.”
Apart from a three-year spell in the Royal Navy, Frank was a block maker for all of his working life.
He spent 30 years at Hides and Speirs in Sheffield before going on to print newspapers and commercial journals in Rotherham.
In addition to his rambling, Frank also volunteers once a week with Sheffield Council’s parks and countryside team, putting up fences, planting trees and making stiles.
He lives with wife, Betty, 87, and they have two children and three grandchildren.
Founded in 1968, the Wednesday Rambling Group for retired men takes to the hills every Wednesday, whatever the weather.
Ernest Batty, club coordinator, said: “No matter what the weather is they go out walking regardless.
“If there’s a blizzard or a heatwave they still jump on a bus or a train and, after seeing nature as it really is, they return home on public transport, having enjoyed a grand day out.”
Walkers meet every Wednesday between 9am and 9.30am at either Sheffield Interchange or the railway station. One team does a 10 to 11-mile walk, while the other opts for six to seven miles.
n New members are always welcome. Details of the next walk appear in The Star on Wednesdays, a week in advance.


Thanks to the Senate Conservatives Fund for posting a searchable version of the Senate
stimulus bill Generational Theft Act.
It’s all here.
On the House side, the CBO confirms to the GOP that the Dems’ bill will top $1.1 trillion:
House Republican Leader John Boehner (R-OH) today issued the following statement on a letter from Congressional Budget Office (CBO) Director Douglas Elmendorf to Budget Committee Ranking Republican Paul Ryan (R-WI), in which he noted that the federal government’s interest costs related to the legislation would amount to $347 billion between 2009 and 2019, bringing the total of the congressional Democrats’ massive spending bill to more than $1.1 trillion:
“It’s official: the non-partisan Congressional Budget Office has confirmed that the congressional Democrats’ legislation is the trillion dollar spending bill that we all feared it would be. It would be irresponsible to pass this massive debt onto our children and grandchildren, and Republicans will continue fighting for their interests – and the interests of all taxpayers. President Obama began this process with the hope of producing a bipartisan plan to create jobs. What congressional Democrats have put on the table is a wasteful and unfocused package that will create plenty of government programs and projects – but not nearly enough new, good-paying jobs. The American people deserve better than the one trillion dollar spending bill that the House will vote on tomorrow, and Republicans will continue reaching out to President Obama to craft a plan that reduces wasteful spending and helps create jobs through fast-acting tax relief for middle-class families and small businesses.”
A GOP Hill staffer runs down what’s next:
*This evening, the Rules Committee will write a rule on amendments to TDSB. More than 200 amendments were submitted (link) to the committee, only a few will be approved.
*Tomorrow, the House will (if needed) conclude remaining general debate time; consider the rule on amendments; and then consider the amendments.
*We expect the rule to allow Republicans a vote on our alternative (link) we sent President Obama last week, and a Motion to Recommit.
*The House will go in at 10 AM tomorrow.
Don’t forget: ReadTheStimulus, which I first mentioned over a week ago, is the best resource on the House version of the Generational Theft Act of 2009. They’ve just posted handy new charts of the new CBO analysis. Check ’em out. Pass ’em around. Then call your congresscritters and tell them to vote NO.

April 2022 Edition
Levesque’s Organic Farm
As the snow disappears and things start to turn green, the farm has been getting more active! We are continuing to gather and boil sap for maple syrup. At the time this newsletter was sent out, our current total for sap collection is over 1200 gallons!
We have begun to prepare our greenhouses for the first round of planting. Cover crops have been turned under, soils have been tilled, irrigation has been run, and furnaces have been serviced. Soon, the first of the plants will be going into the ground.
We have also started to fill up our seedling house with lots of plant starts that will be destined for the fields in the coming weeks. So far, lettuce, peppers, eggplant, tomatoes, onions, and leeks have been started, just to name a few!
We also continue to be busy processing firewood for next winter and sawing out lumber for building and repairs all of which was harvested from the farm's land, and preparing new fencing for this year's flock of chickens, as well as expanding our existing pasture land for our cows!
The Foundation of Farming
Here is a fun fact for your next trivia night, the state soil of Maine is called Chesuncook soil. Maine adopted it in 1999 as its state soil. It is a coarse, loamy soil that shares its name with a lake in northern Maine and it derives its name from the Native American word meaning converging bodies of water. It is widespread in Maine and one of the first soils identified in the state of Maine.
The reason we bring up soil is that it is at the heart of everything we do as organic farmers. Whether you are a produce farmer or an animal farmer the more nutritious and healthy your soil is the more nutritious and healthy your vegetables, grains and animals will be.
When we decided to be organic farmers we made a conscious decision that we would focus on building up our soils and the nutrients in the soil in order to avoid the use of fertilizers and allow our plants to pick up its nutrition from natural sources. We also wanted our soils to be healthy enough to be a nutrient store that, year to year, could store and provide all the macro and micro nutrients our plants would need.
To accomplish this goal we needed to focus on a variety of things including, but not limited to, cation exchange, organic matter, topsoil development, water retention and microorganism biodiversity in the soil. To reach these goals we focused on cover cropping, crop rotation, organic matter input, and avoiding heavy tillage of soils.
Where our farm is in North Leeds history tells us we are fighting a bit of an uphill battle. It is said that in the early agricultural days of Leeds farmers would use fields and pastures for a limited amount of years until the fields would turn to beach sand and be unusable for pasture or vegetable production causing almost a desert environment. The farmers would constantly clear other fields to have ready to use when their other fields and pastures became unusable. Fast forward to the early 1990s when we first started clearing fields on the farm, to say the least, the sand was abundant. The top soil was near 0, the organic matter was near 0, the cation exchange rate was very low and the nutrients in the soil were severely lacking so we started off to build our soils.
First thing we looked at was our topsoil. Topsoil is the upper, outermost layer of soil, usually the top 5–10 inches. It has the highest concentration of organic matter and microorganisms and is where most of the Earth's biological soil activity occurs. Topsoil is composed of mineral particles, organic matter, water, and air. The tricky thing with topsoil though is that it can take 100 to 500 years to build an inch of it naturally, but it only takes a few major wind storms or erosion events to remove all the top soil from an open, non-vegetated area. By using green manures, animal manures, minerals and cover crop rotation we are able to help the natural process and give the microorganisms a healthier happier environment to work their magic.
The next thing we looked at was our cation exchange, which in a basic view, is the soil particles ability to hold onto and pass on nutrients to plants. Most soil particles have a negatively charged outer shell which allows them to bond and hold on to the positively charged nutrients that plants need, such as calcium, magnesium, sodium and potassium. These nutrients are then much more readily available for plant uptake. The basic rule of thumb is that the more clay like your soils are the higher the cation exchange rate will be. Sandy soils have a very low exchange rate which is why plants in sandy soils count heavily on organic matter in the soil, which by itself has a very high exchange rate. This is why on our farm, where the soils are a lot closer to sand than clay, we focus heavily on cover cropping and incorporating organic matter into our soils, while using as minimal tilling as possible to avoid breaking up the topsoil and disturbing the microorganism that help plants break down and incorporate their food.
By focusing on the first two things, topsoil and cation exchange, we have been able to greatly increase the environment of the microbes in the soil. These microbes are considered anything from earthworms to fungi to bacteria, all of which play significant roles in the building of healthy soils, take up of plant nutrients and break down of organic matter. While many people know that the bacteria and earthworms in the soil will help break down organic matter what some people don’t know is that plants have a symbiotic relationship with many of the fungi and bacteria in the soil that will help the plants thrive by helping plants take up and find nutrients or protect the roots of the plant from harmful disease and bacteria. The most commonly known bacteria is called rhizobium, this group of bacteria is known for having a symbiotic relationship with legumes. With the help of this bacteria the legumes (beans, peas, and peanuts) are able to fix nitrogen to their roots in exchange for carbon that was taken up by the plants. To increase the ability of our legume crops (string beans and peas) and cover crop legumes (clover, vetch and field peas) we are able to buy and apply this bacteria to our seeds before planting, also known as inoculating.
Lastly, we take soil test yearly or every other year to evaluate our soil health and the nutrients that are in the soil. There are 17 nutrients that are necessary for plant growth, with the 3 biggest ones being nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium (N-P-K). These are the three numbers that you will see on the front of the fertilizer bags at your local garden store or hardware store. These nutrients will all play different roles in plant growth whether it be leaf growth, root development or support of flowering and fruiting. Plants also use them at different amounts, (corn loves nitrogen while tomatoes can’t get enough potassium). A big part of why we cover crop both our fields and greenhouses is that we want to be able to hold on to these nutrients from one year to the next making them available for next year’s crop and avoiding any possible leaching into the ground water. The cover crops will take up these nutrients, hold them, and then disperse them back into the soil when they are broken down in the ground the next year by the bacteria, fungi and other organisms in the soil.
We hope you enjoyed this brief snapshot into our soils and how we try to manage and help them grow. It is our hope that one day our soils would be healthy enough that the use of fertilizers would no longer be necessary and that the soils could stand alone in supporting our crops, our animals and the way of life we have chosen.
Candies Jalapenos (Cowboy Candy)
· 1 1/2 lbs fresh jalapenos (about 30 peppers)
· 1 cup apple cider vinegar
· 3 cups granulated sugar
· 1 tsp garlic powder
· 1/4 tsp ground turmeric
· 1/4 tsp celery seed
· Remove and discard stems from peppers, then slice into 1/4" slices. Set pepper slices aside.
· To a large pot, add cider vinegar, white sugar, garlic powder, turmeric, and celery seed and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to about MED LOW and simmer for 5 minutes.
· Raise the heat to about MED HIGH to bring mixture back to a boil. Once boiling, add the pepper slices. Allow to return to a boil, then reduce the heat again (to about MED LOW) and simmer for 4 minutes.
· Transfer the peppers using a slotted spoon to clean glass canning jars, filling jars to within 1/4 inch of the upper rim of the jar.
· Only the syrup should remain in the pot at this point. Increase the heat to bring to a full rolling boil. Boil like that for approximately 6 minutes.
· Ladle the syrup into the jars with the jalapeno slices. If you notice any air pockets, take a clean spoon and insert it into the jar to get rid of the trapped air. Fill jars to within 1/4-1/2" from the upper rim of the jar.
· Wipe the rims of the jars with a damp paper towel, then screw on canning jar lids. Label if desired and refrigerate for at least 1-2 weeks (3-4 weeks for optimal flavor). Candied jalapenos are good for up to 3 months if kept properly refrigerated.

Researchers from Friedrich Schiller University (Jena, Germany) and Heinrich-Heine-University (Düsseldorf, Germany) teamed up to test whether a heart failure medication that is currently being tested might also improve blood flow in the brain. Their findings were published last month in the American Journal of Physiology, Heart and Circulatory Physiology.
According to the study authors, the small blood vessels in the brains of sheep closely resemble those in the human brain. Using imaging techniques, they were able to track blood flow in the brain before and after administration of the vasodilator Serelaxin. Their results showed an impressive 150% increase in blood flow to the cortical brain areas within 15 minutes of administering the drug. The cortex of the brain is the outer gray layer important in our perceptions (vision, taste, hearing, sensations, understanding language, etc - see image below). Additional studies would be needed to determine whether the drug can restore blood flow following a stroke as well as whether the drug is effective at improving cortical blood flow in humans.
Since starting a new drug to slow my heart my brain is
foggier than usual
Would a drug used to slow the heart affect the circulation of
blood to the brain
I'm betting Dr. Dolittle doesn't want to give medical advice online, but you might want to ask Dr. Google about "beta blockers and cognitive impairment".

This was for a Mad Hatter party for a friend's 2 year old. I was going for lopsided hat look but didn't want to trim too much and have the cake to run out so it didn't end up looking entirely like a hat.. just a lopsided tiered cake. Also did a cheshire cat face on the top, to keep with the theme of the party. Top: 3 9" layers of lemon cake (stacked then trimmed to hexagonal shape). Vanilla buttercream frosting. Kept half a cup white, which i spread on the top of the cake. then outlined the mouth with a toothpick and frosted the stripes around it. dyed the rest of the frosting pink. Once i had used as much as i wanted to for the pink stripes, i added blue to make it purple and fill in the purple stripes using a ribbon tip. used a small writing tip to outline the mouth and teeth. Bottom: 3 9" layers of red velvet. Cream cheese frosting. Dyed it yellow, spread a base. then added red to make it orange and frosted the diamonds using a star tip.
This is one of the coolest cakes I've created, I was given total control over it, and had so much fun. I also learned a lot from this cake.
This was for my sister-in-law's baby shower, it was a very challenging cake, but it's what I envisioned in my head. If you can envision it you can do it!
I used to white rectangular cakes for the baby to lay on, and if I remember correctly, 4 strawberry rectangular cakes to make little Tiana. Before I started carving I did freeze the cake, this was my first carved cake and it made it a lot easier, and me a lot less nervous! I filled and crumb coated the cakes with vanilla icing. I used the left over cake carving to make the babies head. I covered the body,and head with fondant, and made the hair, bow, and booties out of fondant.
This was the first fondant cake I had made for my family, they were just astonished, and couldn't believe I made it, which made me feel really good.
When asked to make a cake for someones 70 year old husband I was stuck for ideas as he didn't seem to have a hobby I could use for a theme. He also wasn't too happy with being 70....difficult one! By chance I saw an advert for a bottle of whiskey with the tag 'aged to perfection' brilliant! What a great way to compliment someone on their birthday. I asked the lady for some photos of her husband from previous years and one recent photo and had them copied onto edible paper at my local supply shop. I made little frames for each picture out of modeling paste and used the tag 'Aged to perfection' through the middle. The feed back was great; he loved it.
This particular cake was a rich fruit cake but it wouldn't matter what type you used.
I made this cake on request for an Indian baby shower.Its an all vegan cake. i made chocolate cake as mother to-be wanted a black forest cake. so i made two 9x13" rectangle chocolate cake. frosted the entire cake n also filled between the cake with whipped cream. used star tip to do the border n decorated with cherries. used butter cream for buggy, flowers and grass,colored butter cream accordingly. made the baby buggy design using basket weave tip n star tip for the decoration of buggy & Oreo cookies for wheels. made grass using grass tip n made drop flowers. sides of cake was decorated with choco flakes(which i made myself by melting the chocolate, spreading them on board n scraping them) . cake was appreciated by everyone in the baby shower party n mother-to-be was happy too..

We have left behind the 25th anniversary of the Turkish Competition Authority ("TCA"). Data on investigations, seen as the most critical tool of the TCA's intervention in the markets, reveal some interesting trends. To better understand these trends, we have divided the data into sections according to the chairpersons of the TCA.
Our first observation is that while the number of investigations increased continuously in the first ten years of the TCA, it started to decline in the following eight years and returned to its previous trend in 2016 and onwards. In the 2007-2015 period, the TCA focused on informing the public about its mission, strengthening its institutional infrastructure and advocating for competition. As a result, we observe that direct intervention in corporate behaviour by opening investigations has been put on the back burner.
Figure I: Number of concluded investigations
The average annual number of investigations doubled to 20 in the post-2016 period compared to the 2008-2015 period. Having finalised 36 investigations in 2021, the TCA concluded last year with 27 investigations.
Our second observation is that the rate of investigations finalised by monetary fines bottomed out at zero in 2015 and remained low in the following years. The fact that 78% of investigations resulted in monetary fines last year may mean that this downward trend has been broken.
Figure 2: Percentage of investigations finalised by monetary fines
Our third observation is that the TCA's antitrust fines have been on an upward trend in the long run but have succumbed to the deprecation of the Turkish lira. This is probably the only meaningful conclusion that can be drawn from the long-term picture when we convert the fines into US dollars over a long period of 25 years and because we did not consider the economy's growth and hence the turnover of companies.
Figure 3: Antitrust fines (annual, million USD)
Still, if we look at it in sub-periods, according to the chairpersons,
- In the 2008-2015 period, investigations against a small number of high-profile companies resulted in high fines.
- In the 2016-2020 period, there has been a persistent increase in fines, although the deprecation of the Turkish lira has shrunk dollar-denominated fines.
- Since 2020, the annual penalty amount is now on a higher path, despite the large deprecation of the Turkish lira.
In its twenty-fifth year, the TCA has become a competition authority that intervenes in corporate conduct in the market through numerous investigations, resulting in high monetary fines. The probability of a company being fined at the end of an investigation increased the deterrence of the TCA on corporations and increased their efforts to comply with the competition.

BY BRIAN HAMILTON
STRAWBERRY PLAINS – Carter came from behind and stunned Webb 26-21 on Friday. The Hornets opened the season at 1-0 for the first time since a 46-34 win over Knoxville Halls in 2015. It was also the first time Carter has won a home opener since 2015.
The Hornets trailed 7-0 after the first quarter and had three touchdowns called back in the period. Early in the second quarter, Webb would have a touchdown called back, before tossing an interception.
Carter then proceeded to drive the ball all the way to the Webb 18-yard line, where it would face 3rd-and-Goal. Chandler Wilson then threw an interception in the end zone.
The Spartans then scored on a long pass play after the interception with 3:35 left in the first half. That would give Webb a 14-0 lead heading into halftime. In the first half, there were three interceptions and four touchdowns called back due to penalties. It is safe to say that a lot of points were left on the field.
Carter receives the second half kickoff and wastes no time. The Hornets embarked on a drive that lasted all of 1:48, culminating in a 23-yard touchdown pass by Wilson.
On the next possession, Carter made a fourth down stop and took possession of the ball with 7:05 left in the third and trailing by a touchdown.
Early in the fourth quarter, Carter scored a touchdown to cut the Webb deficit to 14-13 and went for the two-point conversion and was unsuccessful.
While Carter did not get the two-point attempt, the Hornets were successful on an onside kick attempt and scored again when Wilson ran for a 30-yard touchdown with 10:23 left, taking the lead 20-14.
The Hornets lined up for a field goal with 3:46 left in the game, but missed, giving the ball back to Webb with a chance to tie or win the game.
A big sack by the Carter defense forced the Spartans into 4th-and-9 and Webb quarterback Charles Robinson’s pass fell incomplete, turning the ball over to the Hornets with 2:10 left in the game.
Carter scored again with 1:23 left and was unsuccessful on the conversion attempt, increasing the lead to 26-14. Since trailing 14-0 early in the third quarter, the Hornets had reeled off 26 unanswered points.
Webb finally answered on the next possession, as Robinson tossed a short swing pass that went for a touchdown, cutting the Carter lead to 26-21.
The Spartans recovered the onside kick, but there was a flag on the play. The referee said the ball did not go 10 yards, which gave Carter the ball with a chance to run out the clock.
The 26-21 win was just the fourth time the two teams have met, with Carter’s last win coming in 1964.
Wilson finished with 288 yards and one touchdown on 27-for-40 passing. He also ran for a score.
Next week, Carter (1-0) will travel to Sevier County (1-0) to face the Smoky Bears, while Webb (0-1) will host Gibbs (1-0).

Workers are still putting finishing touches on Newman Theological College, so students and staff will move in over the semester break.
EDMONTON – Delays in construction will keep students and staff of Newman Theological College at their temporary location in Sherwood Park until the New Year.
"We've decided to keep the classes where they are until the end of the semester in part because they are still making small reparations and finishing off things and we just didn't want to disrupt the students and the professors," said college president Father Shayne Craig.
"We are actually taking possession of the new building (some time) in October but we are not going to move classes in the middle of the semester; that's basically the point.
"We (the seminarians) moved into the new (St. Joseph's) seminary (in late August) and they are still doing all kinds of things and so we just didn't want to put the students and the professors (of Newman College) into that kind of a position.
"The construction people are near completion, but they are still finishing off things."
Added Craig, "We will start moving in various things after we take possession of the building and then classes will transfer over to the new building at the end of the semester in December."
The decision to remain in the Sherwood Park location won't affect students and professors "because everybody is already set up out of Sherwood Park for the semester and we have all the offices out there organized."
Students can easily access library materials through a system that gives them access to all the consolidated libraries across Edmonton, Craig said. "They can request books just as if they walked in."
Construction always takes longer than expected, the Newman president noted. "I have learned that construction is very, very complex and that all the different parts are related to each other, so if you have a delay in one sub-trade, for example, like in the millwork or in the glass, it delays other things and so it just compounds."
The college's fall convocation, originally scheduled to take place at the new chapel, has been moved as well. "We moved it for the same kind of reason because they are still finishing off stuff in the chapel," Craig explained.
"We just had to take it out of here for this year and we are having it (Oct. 16) at St. Joseph's High School (10830-109 St.)."
Newman has over 300 registrations for this semester. St. Joseph's Seminary has 35 students from across Western Canada, including 10 studying for the priesthood for the Edmonton Archdiocese.
