Preparing for Life

The New York Times sparked national media coverage on Waldorf education in 2011 when they reported on A Silicon Valley School That Doesn’t Compute. The article explains the choice of many high-tech employees who choose to send their children to Waldorf schools where there’s not a computer to be found.

Preparing for Life picks up where the Times left off, exploring the Waldorf emphasis on developing capacities versus the focus of traditional education on skills. Being able to think critically, collaborate with others, and communicate effectively are the essential qualities of effective leaders and entrepreneurs in any field and the film explores how Waldorf education works to create those capacities.

Man Utd Offered Carlos Tevez Behind Man City’s Back

Chris Wright

20th, December 2010

By Chris Wright

It’s sub-Siberian, my fingers are completely frozen, I’m shivering like a sh*tting spaniel and still at least 18% inebriated – here goes nothing.

This particular doozy of a rumour first appeared in yesterday’s Mail on Sunday (I know, I know), but is so deliciously unctuous that it warrants a re-hash in my book.

According to the Mail, Manchester United have apparently been approached with an offer to buy Carlos Tevez back from whence he came, although the move was not cleared by anyone affiliated with Manchester City:

“Contact was made this week by a party closely connected with striker Tevez, who quit Old Trafford in May 2009, with a view to finding out whether United manager Sir Alex Ferguson would be interested in re-signing him.”

The paper continues to claim that Ferguson was made fully aware of the approach, and that it was made by an agent who was working ‘neither at City’s behest nor with their knowledge’.

But before you all get carried away, the Mail have also put a dampener on proceedings, declaring that sources close to Old Trafford indicate there is ‘absolutely no chance of the player returning’, even if City did decide to flog him on.

So…’as you were’ I guess.

Shawnee County Commission Candidates Debate

By  |

A current Shawnee County Commissioner is battling a former colleague to keep his seat. Incumbent Democrat Ted Ensley and Republican Challenger Mike Meier debated the issues Thursday at Avondale East Elementary.

Meier previously represented the Second Commission District, but is now in Ensley's district three.

Both explained why they're the best person for the job.

Ensley says he's had a long committment to Topeka and Shawnee County. He says the word "passion" would describe the way in which he approaches his position.

Meier says he believes he'd be able to approach the budget in a way that would save taxpayers money. He also says he doesn't believe in playing games behind the scenes.

The general election is November 4th.

Not a Millionaire? Still No Reason You Shouldn’t be an Art Collector !

Collectors TipAna Moriarty

Share on FacebookShare on Google+Tweet about this on TwitterPin on PinterestShare on LinkedInShare on TumblrEmail this to someone
  • art collectors

Okay, so you may not be the richest person alive and an art patron yet (but as Del Boy says, “This time, next year, we’ll be millionaires”) or even a celebrity. You may not have a huge house with countless paintings hanging on the walls. You may be just a lover of art with little or no experience in collecting. But that does not mean you shouldn’t be an art collector! You are young, you are educated, you love art, so, you should not be afraid to take risks when it comes to art collecting, and you do not have to be filthy rich to decorate your home as a pro art collector even if you are still at the beginning of your collecting journey.

art collectors

Art Gallery – Emanuele Bresciani, 2015 via

Art can be Affordable

Every home is basically a mini art collection. Various trinkets and trifles, photographs and paintings on your walls, even your baby sister’s drawing, gives your home a personality, even though it may not help you make a fortune out of it. The UK chairman of the art auction house Christie’s, Orlando Rock, says that you can buy amazing things any given day, whether it is in official auctions or just plain old antique shops. He has stated that today, an 18th-century chair can cost roughly the same as a chair you would buy in a modern shop. As a young collector, you probably don’t own old masters’ works. But that doesn’t mean you should feel discouraged in your hunt for amazing pieces that are fit for a slightly shallower pocket. Will Ramsay, founder of Affordable Art Fair, claims that you don’t have to be an expert to be able to enjoy, own, and appreciate original contemporary art. He goes on to say that one of the biggest myths in the art world is that art collectors are outstandingly wealthy. Rock agrees with him that people, especially young people, are afraid of art and that there is actually no reason for that at all.

So Where Should I Begin?

There are astounding differences between the old and the young art collectors. While older collectors tend to buy mainstream pieces, millennials are more prone to purchase artworks by unknown or underground artists that are significantly cheaper than the aforementioned mainstream ones. This is made possible by new means of art trading, such as buying online (did anyone say Instagram?) and Affordable Art Fair, or buying directly from the artists, for example. You should also be aware of the art market in general and keep an eye on those emerging artists that may someday end up being as big as Damien Hirst and the likes of him. As for traditional art fair experience, you should familiarize yourself with the exhibitors and the artists, weave a web of relationships with the galleries and the dealers and most importantly, know what you like and what you don’t.
Young art collectors have often been criticized for buying art recklessly, not because they really like it or because they believe in the artist’s message, but because they want to re-sell it and make a profit. Maybe some of them have watched The Best Offer and the desire to become Virgil Oldman has overwhelmed them, but bear in mind that art is something that should be respected and enjoyed, and not something that exists purely because of financial gain.

Decorating Tips and Tricks of the Pro Art Collectors

The final step of acquiring new artworks is usually the most perplexing one – how to exhibit the new art in your home? If you are not Orlando Rock and you don’t live in Burghley House, your walls are probably more on the bare side than full of beautifully framed paintings. Rock suggests planning in advance and even sketching the possible layout of your wall. You should also be aware of the period of your house and make sure your acquired pieces match the overall look of your house. Harry Dalmeny, the heir to the Earl of Roseberry and deputy chairman of Sotheby’s auction house, advises that you treat a group of pictures you intend to hang as if they were one. He also suggests you use double hook system – put a hook on each side of the painting instead of a piece of wire across the middle. This helps to protect the wall and makes hanging and adjusting much easier.
The light is one more crucial element. If you possess artwork, such as watercolors, that cannot be exposed to too much light, that can definitely dominate the way you hang. One of the many possible solutions is to use sunlight retardant glass. Dalmeny says that picture lights are a thing of the past now, but if you must use them, better install lights under the pictures so they can throw the light up.

No Reason Not to Become an Art Collector Whizz Kid

Rock believes that the millennials will eventually dictate the notions of the art world. As he said, young people have a passion for reusing and sharing. This can be seen in the expansion of services such as Airbnb, Couchsurfing, sites such as ArtStar or TinyShowcase where you can buy myriads of incredible, affordable art, and an overall trend of thrift shopping and buying vintage clothes and original handmade jewelry. Young people are becoming avid art collectors and are able to appreciate and recognize even the lesser known artists, not only old masters. In addition, the artists themselves are known for their astounding collections, which only further promotes this concept among people who have not been in the collector’s word for a long time.

Editor’s Tip: The Art of Buying Art: An Insider’s Guide to Collecting Contemporary Art
In this useful book, a contemporary art expert explains in detail the process of finding, appreciating, and collecting contemporary art. The particular reason this book is especially fit for a newbie art collector is that it is written for people with deep or shallow wallets. A contemporary art expert and gallery owner Paige West advises the reader and walks him/her through the process of buying contemporary art. She breaks the stereotype of the contemporary art as non-original, non-tasteful and non-breathtaking in comparison to traditional paintings. Beautifully illustrated, the book will appeal to the potential art buyers as well as the art aficionados.

Belvidere Kids Send Letters to Santa

BELVIDERE (WIFR) -- With Christmas less then three weeks away, the holiday season is in full swing, and so are the letters to Santa. Earlier today, children brought their letters to the Belvidere post office to send to Santa. Each letter was postmarked with a special stamp unveiled this afternoon.

The stamp was designed by Belvidere Fire Chief and Artist David Worrell. Each letter sent out today will receive a response in time for Christmas. Today's event was huge success in not only getting letters out to Santa, but also teaching kids about the post office.

"We thought it might be an opportunity to reach out to them, teach them how to address an envelope, how to write a letter, how to put a stamp on them, return address, and see how the process works for the postal service,” said Sean Hargon with the USPS.

    Greetings from Finland!

    Hi everybody! I am called Ratman and I come from a country where polar bears roam on the streets and every house is made out of snow. Also known as igloos. : ) The reason I joined these forums is that I might need some help with hacking my Wii. I have successfully installed some necessary things and stuff on my Wii already, but I've ran into a few problems, for example playing GC Games off a USB stick. But those can be discussed on some other threads! I hope this community will not kill me when they see me. After all, nobody seems to really like rats!

Thread: Semi Brick Wii, no priiloader and newest DVD drive

  1. #1

    Semi Brick Wii, no priiloader and newest DVD drive

    I had modded a friends wii about a year ago and all was fine up until about a month ago where all the channels except wiiflow crashed. I tried having a look at the various settings but the issue got worse as time passed and now I barely get it past the 'Health and Safety' - usually freezes and just goes black. The system menu is on 4.2E and worked fine up until this point.

    After doing a lot of research on this it appears it is a semi bricked. I know there are a few fixes out there for this but I have the following issues

    - Newest type of DVD drive so doesn't read unofficial Wii DVD's
    - Wii goes to the menu screen about 1 in 40 attempts and whilst I can load .dol's via bannerbomb it usually crashes 4 out 5 times. When you do the maths I don't get to load much up.
    - Forgot to put priiloader on the machine so can't start that up before system menu

    So I figure I have 2 options

    a) Use the SaveMiiFrii technique. As the DVD drive doesn't read unofficial Wii discs then I figure I am going to have to get an official game that requires the latest firmware to update to 4.3E.

    b) Hope somehow that the gods are with me and that bannerbomb launches friiloader. I figure if I can install this now it makes the system menu crashing irrelevant as it loads up before then. From that point I can run the neccessary programs to sort the system menu out.

    really I was just wondering if anyone can confirm if the 2 methods above are viable and also if anyone else can think of any other methods to use.

    Any feedback on this would be greatly appreciated.

    You have two options.
    1- go to the wii settings and format the wii. You will lose all savegames, HBC, other channels and they will need to be reinstalled.

    2- You can try to fix the message board with this method. You won't lose any saves or channels, but all your messages and friends I believe. Download and follow the directions in the zip.

    Thanks for the advice. Unfortunately I've tried the messageboard fix but it didn't make a difference. I overwrote the files that I was advised to but when I restarted my Wii I didn't get any message saying the message board had been corrupted (as was stated in the original guide). To be honest I get about as much luck with maintenance mode as I do starting up the menu normally. It will load up roughly 1 in 40 or 50 attempts.

    In regards to formatting the wii I literally cannot do anything other than load wiiflow. The Wii setting just goes to a black screen

How to Celebrate National Margarita Day

Community Q&A

Get your tequila and limes out for this unofficial holiday on February 22nd.

  1. 1
    Try different serving methods. Margaritas are either usually "on the rocks" (ingredients straight over ice cubes), shaken (with ice in another container and served), or blended (with ice in a blender).
  2. 2
    Experiment with different ingredient ratios. Try these common measurements[1]:
    • 2:1:1 = 50% tequila, 25% triple sec, 25% lime/lemon juice
    • 3:2:1 = 50% tequila, 33% triple sec, 17% lime/lemon juice
    • 3:1:1 = 60% tequila, 20% triple sec, 20% lime/lemon juice
    • 6:3:1 = 60% tequila, 30% triple sec, 10% lime/lemon juice
    • 1:1:1 = 33% tequila, 33% triple sec, 33% lime/lemon juice
    • 7:4:3 = 50% tequila, 29% triple sec, 21% lime/lemon juice
  3. 3
    Give your margaritas color. Use different flavored liqueurs to enrich the beauty of the drink. Blue curacao is most commonly used to create the "blue margarita".
  4. 4
    Change a fruit. While the standard margarita calls for fresh lime or lemon juice, other fruits are acceptable to substitute in the drink. Try mango, banana, apple, strawberry, or raspberry.
  5. 5
    Use a margarita in a dessert. Enjoy recipes such as strawberry margarita cakes and layered margarita bites.
  6. 6
    Make non-alcoholic things. You don't need an actual margarita to enjoy this holiday. Create mocktail margaritas or ones using non-alcoholic ingredients.

  • If you might be drinking an amount that could get you drunk, it is best to drink in safe environments, in the company of trusted family members and friends that can watch out for your safety.

  • Please be responsible. Never drink and drive. Know your limits and avoid drinking to drunkenness.

How to Make Chinese Dumplings

Four Parts:Making the WrappersMaking the FillingBoiling the DumplingsFrying the DumplingsCommunity Q&A

Chinese dumplings have been a tasty treat for thousands of years. There are actually several different types of dumplings––jiaozi (boiled or pan-fried), potstickers (pan-fried then steamed), and gow gees (steamed or deep-fried). You can easily make tasty jiaozi that are either boiled or pan-fried, with just a bit of effort and preparation.

If you'd like to make potstickers, click here.

For the Wrappers

  • 4 cups all-purpose flour
  • 2 cups water
  • 1/3 teaspoon salt

For the Filling

  • 1.5 cups ground pork
  • 1/2 cup chopped shrimp
  • 2 cups Napa cabbage
  • 1 teaspoon ginger
  • 1 tablespoon green onion
  • 1.5 teaspoon salt
  • 2 tablespoons soy sauce
  • 2 tablespoons cooking wine
  • 1/3 teaspoon white pepper
  • 1 tablespoon sesame oil
  • 1 tablespoon vegetable oil

Part 1
Making the Wrappers

  1. 1
    Mix the flour, salt, and water in a large bowl. Mix the ingredients together until you make a nice, smooth dough. Use a wooden spoon to stir the ingredients together until they are fully incorporated. This recipe should make about 20 wrappers.[1]
  2. 2
    Let the dough rest for 10 minutes. This can help the ingredients settle together. As you wait for the dough to rest, you can cover the bowl with cling wrap. You can start to make the filling for the dumplings while you wait.
  3. 3
    Place the dough on a flat surface. A cutting board will work here. Then, cut the dough into about 20 or more equal pieces for the dumplings.
  4. 4
    Make each circular wrapper. Simply use your hand to pick up each piece of dough and pound it into the board to make a small circular disc. Then, use a rolling pin to smooth out each disc until it's about 3 inches (7.5 cm) in diameter. They don't have to all be exactly the same size, but it can help to get them as close to the same size as possible.
    • You can add some flour to the rolling pin to keep the wrappers from sticking.
  5. 5
    Store or use the wrappers immediately. You should either fill the wrappers immediately, or you can store them in the fridge to keep them fresh while you make the filling. You can store them for a few days in the fridge, or you can even freeze them to store them long-term. Just make sure to coat them with flour so they don't stick to each other.
  6. 6
    Buy wrappers if you don't want to make your own. If you don't have the time or energy to make your own wrappers, then you should know that two types of wrappers are readily available in supermarkets and Asian food stores. Wonton wrappers (also called skins) are delicate and paper-thin, usually about a thirty-second of an inch thick. They typically come in three-inch squares and are made from flour, eggs, and salt.
    • These wrappers, which are Chinese in origin, are suitable for boiling, steaming, deep-frying, and pan-frying.

Part 2
Making the Filling

  1. 1
    Shred the cabbage and put into a stainless pot. If you'd like to be extra thorough, then you can add a dash of salt to the cabbage and let it sit in a bowl for 10 minutes; this will allow the salt to soak up the excess moisture in the dumplings.
  2. 2
    Mix the cabbage and minced meat together by hand. Ground meat is meat finely chopped by a meat grinder. The process of mincing is usually done manually. Continue mixing the cabbage and meat together until they are thoroughly blended.
    • Pork and lamb are generally preferred for Chinese dumplings, but beef, chicken, and turkey may be used as well. In South Asia, both lamb (mutton) and goat meat are popular.
  3. 3
    Add the remaining filling ingredients to the bowl and mix again. Repeat the process until you've thoroughly mixed in the remaining ingredients. If you'd rather use mixing spoons instead of your hands, that will work too, but you have to be really thorough.
  4. 4
    Massage the cabbage mixture with your hand for 10 minutes. This will help dry out the mixture a bit. While you massage the mixture, if you feel that there is not enough vegetable oil, then you should add more.
  5. 5
    Scoop the filling onto each wrapper. Just use a spoon to scoop out 1-2 tablespoons of the mixture in the center of every wrapper. You don't have to use the exact same amount in every wrapper; just make sure you have enough to use for all 20 or so of the wrappers.
  6. 6
    Fold the sides of the wrapper together. You should wet the edge of each wrapper with a damp finger and then fold the sides together, crimping (pressing together) the dough with your fingers to seal the contents inside. To do this, first fold it in half and press together the top of the edge. Then press each side together, while crimping it. Simple mechanical "dumpling presses" are also available to simplify this process.
  7. 7
    Place the wrapped dumplings on a floured surface. This will keep them from sticking to the surface and will make your dumplings ready to either boil or fry—it's your choice!

Part 3
Boiling the Dumplings

  1. 1
    Put the dumplings in boiling water. To make sure that they are thoroughly cooked, one method used in China is the "3 boil" method. To do this, add the dumplings to boiling water, and return the water to a boil. Then, add 1 or 2 cups of water (it can be cold or at room temperature). Wait for it to boil the second time, then add water again. After the water boils the third time, your dumplings should be good to go.
    • Alternately, you can boil the water, place the dumplings in it, wait for the water to return to a boil, and cook the dumplings for 10 more minutes at a simmer.
  2. 2
    Transfer the dumplings carefully from the pot to a plate. You can use a slotted spoon to take out the dumplings or close the lid over the pot and pour out the water before removing the dumplings.
    • Though they are done at this point, you can go for a boiling/frying combo if you'd like to transfer them to a skillet with hot oil and fry them for just a minute or two, until they're a bit crispy, for an added touch.
  3. 3
    Serve. Serve these tasty dumplings while they're warm. You can enjoy them with a dipping sauce of your choice.

Part 4
Frying the Dumplings

  1. 1
    Heat cooking oil in a medium-sized pan over medium heat. You should cook about 8 dumplings at a time, if the size of the pan allows it. Once the oil heats up, you should place the first 8 dumplings on the pan while trying to move them apart enough so that they don't stick together.[2]
  2. 2
    Fry the dumplings for 2-3 minutes, until their bottoms are light brown.
  3. 3
    Add 50 milliliters of water to the pan and heat it over high heat. Cover the skillet and let it steam until the water has completely evaporated. Then, turn the heat back to medium to continue frying the dumplings.
  4. 4
    Add some oil to the pan and fry the dumplings until they are crispy with golden brown bottoms. Once you've finished frying these dumplings, remove them from the pan and place them on a plate with a paper towel on it to absorb the excess oil. You can also remove the dumplings with a slotted spoon and shake the extra oil back into the pan.
  5. 5
    Cook the remaining dumplings. Then, cook the remaining 12 or so dumplings in two batches. Do exactly what you did with the previous batch of dumplings, adding more oil when necessary.
  6. 6
    Serve. Serve the dumplings while they're warm with your favorite dipping sauce.

Add New Question
  • Do I have to make the dumplings this way? Is it okay if I use my own way?
    wikiHow Contributor
    You can use any filling you like and cook them in any way you want - fried, boiled, steamed or a mixture of boil/fry or steam/fry. Your personal taste should always take precedence over the origins of recipes. For example, you may prefer to precook your filling mixture, which insures that it's never under-cooked (especially if the meat is used). However, make sure that the precooked mixture has cooled down and has dried out, by allowing it to cool down in a colander. Excess liquid will rip open the dumpling skins. (In other words, avoid using a wet mixture.) Tip: If using cabbage, use a few pinches of salt and let it sweat separately in a colander for at least 15 minutes to extract its liquid.
  • What is the brown sauce that is used for chicken dumplings?
    wikiHow Contributor
    It is usually soy sauce or black/brown vinegar.
  • When I boil or fry them, does it cook the meat inside of the dumpling?
    Yes, the meat tenders inside and it cooks.
  • What sauce is eaten on dumplings?
    Soy sauce works well with dumplings.
  • Is wine necessary for the filling? And do I need to add oil to the fillings as I make them?
    No, wine is optional and only adds taste, and you do not need to add it. Also, you should not add oil to the fillings while you are making them.
Ask a Question
If this question (or a similar one) is answered twice in this section, please click here to let us know.

  • You can try other variations of the filling: pork and celery, beef and onions, and chicken and mushroom are some popular kinds of filling.
  • Keep the water at a gentle boil. The water should not be a rolling boil or the dumplings may break.
  • You can steam the dumplings instead of boiling them.
  • When you eat the dumplings, you can use any sauce you want. Soy sauce, vinegar, spicy sauce, and garlic sauce are recommended.
  • Balm is scallions or green onion in English.
  • Cook a sample of the filling in a microwave or frying pan if you want to check your seasonings.
  • You can fry the dumplings, but it's a good idea to do this with ones that are already cooked. Otherwise, it's difficult to fully cook the meat in the middle of the dumplings without burning the outside. It's a great way to handle leftovers!
  • Don't put too much filling into the crusts. They can be broken easily, which will make them a lot less flavorful.
  • You can make the dumplings and then freeze them, so it's an easy dish to prepare days or even weeks ahead of time.

  • Be sure to fully cook the dumplings if you have any kind of meat in the filling, since the meat is ground up.
  • The dumplings may absorb some water if you boil them, so be careful when you bite into a hot one, because the juices may spill out.

Gang Bang - Jozef Vavrich RAW - WANK PARTY

Jozef Vavrich is a real star and we get a treat in this video where Mirek Ceslar, Jan Mikulec, Radim Hajek and Walter Uwe decide to have some fun with him. It starts very well, with Jozef and Jan entering together and Jan explaining that he has a surprise for Jozef. He blindfolds his friend and sits him down. Then Radim, Walter and Mirek join them. Jozef reaches out to feel what is happening as the guys begin to touch him. His hands soon find that the guys are rock hard and he starts wanking Jan. Then his head is guided onto Walter's rock hard cock, for some sucking. Soon all the guys are naked and their cocks are ready for action. Jozef sucks on Walter and wanks Jan and Mirek. Soon Jozef's head is being guided on to all of those cocks in turn, sucking each one. As he continues his hot sucking Jozef feels Jan's mouth on his cock as well. But the guys have more in store for Jozef. They sit him, back to front, on a chair, with his ass sticking out. After spanking on that hot ass it is turned towards Jan's cock and he slips it in that tight hole. He fucks it hard and deep as Jozef continues to suck and wank on the other guys. Jan moves aside and the hunky Radim takes over. His cock plows into Jozef's eager hole, fucking him so deep. Then Radim pulls out and Jozef is turned around for Mirek to have a turn at fucking his hot hole. Mirek fucks him hard and then hands over to Walter for him to slam his big dick deep into that ass. He really pounds that ass hard and fast as Jozef continues to suck cock too. Next they move Jozef onto his back, through the chair and Mirek is back in the saddle pumping that ass. Jan takes over, his big cock slamming in and out of Jozef's hot hole. Jozef is still hot for cock and reaches out to wank the other dicks as well. After Mirek has another go at Jozef's willing hole Radim takes a turn. All the guys are so hard and horny, they cant get enough of that ass and keeping taking turns until Jozef, wanking his own hard dick, shoots he load all over his belly. Soon Mirek's fucking puts him over the edge and he pulls out and spurts his cum everywhere. Then he climbs up and presents his cock for Jozef to suck clean. Walter is next, he grabs Jozef's head and shoots his creamy cum all over his face. Radim is quick to follow suit with his cum. Jozef eagerly sucks on the spent cock to drain it completely. Then Jan steps up and dumps his load as well, with his cock also nicely cleaned off by Jozef's mouth. Well what a great time they all had, particularly Jozef who really got a great workout, enjoying every minute of it.

Our Coming Soon Set Preview

Ondra Krahul has decided to take a bath. In a room adorned with candles and with the bath covered in a white sheet it looks rather exotic. Removing his underwear Ondra steps into the batch and begins to wash his legs. Then he sits in the water, with his legs hanging out of the bath. He continues to wash himself as Dalibor Janek arrives. He is in just his underwear too. Squatting down he reaches into the water with a hand, taking a sponge, and begins to wash Ondra. He washes all over Ondra's chest and then he reaches forward to kiss him. As he kisses Dalibor reaches forward and takes hold of Ondra's cock and begins to wank it. As he wanks he nibbles as Ondra's neck. Ondra lifts himself up and rests his ass on the edge of the bath, his hard cock coming into view. Dalibor quickly goes down on that big cock and sucks on it. He also sucks the balls into his mouth, enjoying the nice clean taste. Dalibor is hard too and he stands and presents his cock to Ondra who eagerly begins to suck on it. As he sucks he wanks his own big cock, keeping it nice and hard. Dalibor then moves again, this time so that he can rim Ondra's hot ass hole. Having enjoyed the rimming Ondra is more turned on then ever and climbs out of the bath so that he can slide his dick into Dalibors hot, tight ass. That big cock slides effortlessly in and out of Dalibor's ass, working the hole real well. Dalibor turns over and rests on the edge of the bath with Ondra fucking him missionary style. Dalibor wanks on his throbbing cock as his ass take a good hard pounding. The guys move again, this time so that Dalibor can sits his ass down on that cock and ride it. He continues to ride the dick until Ondra is ready to blow. Dalibor gets into position so that Ondras load can shoot all over his face. Then he takes the spent cock into his mouth and cleans it off very nicely.

K. Scott Wong, James Phinney Baxter III Professor of History and Public Affairs

“America is the first country and society that has ever attempted to put as many as 30 to 40 percent of each age group into higher education. This is a national decision, rooted deep in our history and our philosophy and our conception of the precepts of American life. It is out of this that the problem of numbers has come, and it is out of this dedication to it that I think we’re going to find ways of meeting it.” –John E. Sawyer ’39

It is remarkable that this conversation took place right before a watershed period in American history that would bring significant changes to our society, changes that are still unfolding today. Both Sawyer and Ransom readily acknowledge the changes wrought by the Second World War, and they both defend the cause of a liberal arts education in the face of increasing post-war professionalism.

When this interview was recorded, President Kennedy had already been assassinated and the Beatles had come to the U.S., but there was no way Sawyer and Ransom could have imagined the transformative events that would take place later that decade that rocked both of their campuses and the rest of the world: the ravages of the war in Vietnam and the subsequent anti-war movement, the height of the Civil Rights movement, the assassinations of Martin Luther King Jr. and Robert Kennedy, the women’s movement, the student movement and its demands for educational reform, and substantial changes in American immigration policies.

All of these events and larger social movements had lasting influences on what people believed the “American Dream” could be and should be. While our civic discourse had always paid lip service to the core ideals of “liberty and justice for all,” it took until the ’60s for these ideals to begin to reach fruition. President Sawyer would act decisively to abolish the fraternity system, increase minority enrollments, increase the number of women and minorities on the staff and faculty, and even cancel the last two weeks of classes in 1970 in protest against the American bombing of Cambodia. And yet we as a society, and our campus in particular, are still grappling with these issues—the role of a liberal arts education in the face of the power of “big money,” the goal of diversifying our campus in terms of students, faculty and staff, many of whom come from a wider range of countries and backgrounds than ever before—all the while keeping true to the goal of nurturing an informed and compassionate citizenry.

Unemployment Rate Met with Cautious Optimism

By  |

Michigan's seasonally-adjusted unemployment rate for March was 7.5 percent -- the lowest it's been since hitting 7.3 percent in April 2008, according to the Michigan Department of Technology, Management and Budget.

Still, 355,000 Michiganders are unable to find work. At Capital Area Michigan Works, which provides resources to job seekers, between 1,000 to 1,500 locals stream through the doors every day to utilize its services.

"We are still bombarded every day," said Edythe Hatter-Williams, CEO of Capital Area Michigan Works. "I think even if they are again working, they're going to be looking for better opportunities and then those that may even be working but they're not making enough, so they need to pick up a second or maybe even a third job."

The economy may be healing, but its pace is still slow in some minds. Mason resident Samuel Janecke has been surviving on side jobs here and there, just trying to get by before he ends up back at Michigan Works.

"It's still hard," he said. "There's still a lot of people looking for work and not enough jobs to go around. "I think things are getting better slowly but surely, but I think there's a long way to go."

That seemed to be the consensus on Washington Ave. Thursday afternoon, as lunch-goers cautiously praised economic progress.

"Definitely the economy is better than it's been in six years, but I think the unemployment rate doesn't include people who have stopped looking for jobs," said Denise Hawkins. "A lot of people have exceeded their weeks, so they're not on the unemployment figure anymore."

Michelle Taylor agreed saying she only thinks the economy has improved "just a little bit, but not very much."

"I know people that are unemployed and hard to find a good paying job," she said. "I think the numbers have changed because a lot of people have dropped off the rolls."

Lansing Chamber of Commerce President Tim Daman said he's seeing signs of good economic news. He cites job additions and expansions at Jackson National Life in East Lansing, Two Men and a Truck in Lansing and Cravings Gourmet Popcorn in old town Lansing.

"I definitely think our area's on the rebound," said Chad Jordan, owner of Cravings Gourmet Popcorn. "People are out buying, businesses are out buying, trying to do things for their employees and attract new business, so I really believe that these unemployment numbers are really a good, positive sign for our area."

Jordan is getting ready to open a second store in Okemos June 1, for which he plans to hire 5-10 additional employees.

The economy isn't completely healed, but the worst may be over, Jordan said. And if businesses have made it through the recession, they're in a prime position to thrive in better times.

"I think that most business owners are pretty optimistic about what's going on," he said. "I think that there's a lot of room for growth though. I wouldn't say let's go out and throw a party. There's so much work that we have to get done."

Lansing Council Holds Budget Hearing, Talks BWL Fees

By: Anthony Sabella Email
By: Anthony Sabella Email

Listening to those who came out to the first Lansing budget hearing, it's clear what part of the mayor's budget they don't like.

"We cannot continue to absorb the costs of keeping the city running," said Kathi Raffone.

Last week, Mayor Virg Bernero recommended the city no longer pay the Board of Water and Light out of the general fund for the use of fire hydrants and street lights.

Instead he suggested adding the costs to the utility bills of customers saying, it would save the city more than $5 million, costing those who live there an extra $46/year.

The extra fee was the big topic of discussion, Monday night.

"When we first heard it, what we were looking at was the idea that there was a flat fee that everyone was going to be charged," said Council President, Carol Wood. "Now, it sounds like it's based on usage."

According to Chief Operating Officer Chad Gamble, the fee will vary based on how much a customer already pays in utilities. Wood says the fee brings with it a lot of questions.

"I think we're going have to bring the Board of Water and Light people in and have a discussion to see how they figured the measurements on this," she said.

Councilman Brian Jeffries says there is concern that another fee increase could cause people to leave the city, but knows the alternative could be worse.

"In essence, it's gonna be a tax increase," he said. "We have a structural deficit that we need to fix and we have a certain level of services and police and fire and roads that we need to maintain."

That's why this is just the beginning of the conversation.

Vestas slashes 1,400 more jobs following huge loss

DENMARK: Vestas today announced it would be cutting a further 1,400 jobs in addition to the 2,335 job cuts revealed at the start of the year.

Vestas plans to make 1,400 redundancies
Vestas plans to make 1,400 redundancies

The change will see Vestas end the year with just 19,000 staff globally, rather than the 20,400 predicted when the turbine manufacturer announced its restructuring plan in January.

In total Vestas expects to make 3,700 staff redundant in 2012. Having let 1,000 of these staff go already, the firm says the remaining job losses will be split geographically as follows: 55% in Europe and Africa, 25% in Asia Pacific and 20% in Americas.

Vestas said it was making the additional job cuts in order to ensure it remained profitable in 2013, when it expects a significant drop in shipments to 5GW. Meanwhile, it has revised its full-year shipments expectation for 2012 down from 7GW to 6.3GW, blaming "a lower order intake in the first half year and delays of grid connections in China".

Chief executive Ditlev Engel said: "The further reduction in the workforce is part of the continued cost saving plans which Vestas has been working on since November 2011.

"It is always unfortunate to have to say goodbye to good colleagues, but we have said before that 2012 will be tough and 2013 will be even tougher for Vestas, and in order to reach our target of making 2013 profitable, it is unfortunately a necessity."

The revelation of further job cuts came as Vestas published its results for the second quarter and first half of 2012. While the firm’s Q2 revenue at €1.61 billion was up 15% compared to Q2 2011, its profits before tax and special items (one-off payments such as redundancy payouts) was down by 48% from €77 million in Q2 2011 to €40 million in Q2 2012.

For the half year, the firm’s earning before tax and special items are now running at a €164 million loss, compared to an €8 million profit in the first half of 2011. Taking into account special items, Vestas made a pre-tax loss in the first half of this year of €230 million. As a consequence of the intensified redundancy plan, Vestas special items at the end of the year are now expected to amount to €75-125m.

The firm’s free cash flow was negative, running at €338 million in the red at the end of H1 2012, €139 million worse than the first half of 2011.

Despite posting such poor results, Vestas said it expected to meet its full-year expectations announced at the beginning of the year, including a pre-tax profit margin of between 0% and 4%, revenue in the range of €6.5 billion to €8 billion, and a positive free cash flow.

However, it was not all bad news for the firm as the value of its orders amounted to €9.6bn at 30 June 2012. Combined with the future revenue of signed service agreements, Vestas now has work on its books totalling €14.4bn – the highest level ever recorded by a manufacturer.

Sancerre 2015 Reserve Durand
From a small producer in France's Loire Valley comes this dazzling white wine, rich with grapefruit and gooseberry aromas.

It shows full flavors on the palate with enormous style and length. Crisp, fresh Sauvignon Blancs like this are why Sancerre has such an enormous and devoted following.

An excellent wine for the dollar.
When the dollar cost is compared to the enjoyment of the wine, I would sense that it has a good bang for the buck. Sancere is one of my wife's favorites; she feels that this, cost-wise, is one of the best.

Complex and Refreshing
The delivery and service I received from WineExpress was exceptional. I had purchased three bottles and ended up getting free shipping. At most other sites this means it takes forever, not with WineExpress. It was shipped the same day I ordered it and at my door in two days.

I was able to track my order with ease and was notified every step of the way. Thank you for a wonderful wine and experience!

Carolyn on Dec 1, 2014
