Black Dogs
Posted 21 November 2010 - 05:15 PM
There is a hollow that I know of deep in the hills of East Kentucky, this place is seriously haunted by a variety of spirits, a witch women, something I believe is an elemental, child size spirits, and a bunch of others. Several people in this hollow has reported seeing a huge black dog. One saw it one night, in conjuntion with the spirit I believe is an elemental, he shot at the dog unloaded a entire clip. The dog didn't go down. The next morning I went out to where the dog was, no blood on the ground yet every bullet he had shot had hit the tree that was behind the dog.

Life is too short to take seriously, none of us get out of it alive.
Each morning when I open my eyes I say to myself: I, not events, have the power to make me happy or unhappy today. I can choose which it shall be.Yesterday is dead, tomorrow hasn't arrived yet. I have just one day, today, and I'm going to be happy in it.

Dang. Protective dog.
They are here, speaking for the southern states,I have visited re: tales about them and what people have seen.It reads a lot like the "Black Dog", "Black Shuck" tales from the UK. I accept them as real but do not try to change others minds re: them; fact or fantasy, it is up to each person.

My Dad had a similar experience. He was driving from Sydney to Brisbane (Australia) non stop. he took the New England Highway. He had just fuelled up at the Warwick Roadhouse for his final leg to Brisbane.. He was driving along and then hes saw a little black gremlin (his words) jump out of a tree and onto his bonnet. dad locked up his brakes, pulled over onto the side of the highway and went straight to sleep
I know the story sounds like crap but the Old man is a sceptic and it's a bloody good story

I don't know if this helps but there are also the whist-hounds of Wistman's Wood. Whist meaning "spooky" and deprived from the word Wisc- the Norse God of wisdom and War, Odin (Woden). Also known as Yell-hounds and Yeth-hounds. Whisht hounds are headless and glowing black. They roam the moors with their master, Odin, who carries a hunting horn or hunting pole. Sometimes their master is said to be the Devil or Sir Francis DRAKE; he is either astride a horse or on foot. The hounds are said to chase the souls of unbaptised children. Another story says that the hounds themselves, where unbaptized chi;dren who return to hunt down their parents.
People who meet the hounds are said to die within a year, if they do not perish that very night. If you meet them head on you must lie face down with arms and legs crossed and recite the Lord's prayer until they have passed. Dogs that hear the the Whisht hounds baying are certain to die.
Whist hounds are most frequently out on late Sundaunday nights, baying and breathing fire and smoke, They sweep acreoss the moors and end their run by vanishing over a crag. According to lore, anyone who pursues them goes over a cliff to his death.
The Whisht hounds have been seen since 1677 in the area of Buckfastleigh. Reports of the hounds have dwindled in the late 20th century, perhaps because of the decline in beliefs of the supernatural. Both Whisht hounds and Black Shucks have been credited with inspiring Sir Arthur Conan Doyle in the writing of "The Hound of the Backervilles".

This is kinda freaking me out, and believe me thats saying alot. When i was a child My house was right at a crossroad, my house being on the side of where the road forked, we lived in the stix [bfe]
Well one day when i was pretty young a black pit bull came on our property and walked straight up to me, he followed me around closely, He would let me pet him and come near him. but no one else. It snareled and growled at my famliy if they would approach it, but not me. It wasn't my dog i had never seen it around before and it didn't belong to the neighbors. I lived at my granmaws house in those days and after the day it had come to me it stayed there like it had made our place it its home too. I remember that dog well. I recently brough it up to my mom and granmaw they told me they hated it, they told me somthing wasn't right about that dog. He was taken away after attacking a man driving by on a motorcycle.
Now im 26, Dogs love me, even mean ones. i cant explain it as i wish i could but ever since then idk I feel a deep bond with dogs. but at the same time iv seen things that i wont explain, because even though i know i have seen I still have trouble believing; that really erked me.deep.. But yeah do any of you know of stories or tales of happenings like this?

Well I think I was able to keep my character to acceptable limits....I gave her most of the abilities of a pixie. When it came to the dragon part, she was only able to take on some physical characteristics(dragon wings, tail, scales along her back where the wings and tail were)...but her spell powers and strength did not increase. Her size did increase (2 ft to 4 ft), and the wings and tails gave her more manuvering in the air.

text: Hillsdale Daily NewsHILLSDALE � After finishing with a winning percentage above .500 for the first time in six seasons last year, the Hillsdale College softball team�s future looks bright. In spite of a 1-6 beginning to the season, Chargers fans have plenty to be excited about.Hillsdale coach Joe Abraham was cautiously optimistic about this year�s outlook, saying that the team "looked good in the fall and looked good inside, but that�s not the same as the regular season."The Chargers lost a couple of seniors last year, including All-GLIAC starting pitcher Laura Homan, but also added seven new players (five freshmen and two transfers)."We have a lot of new talent all over the field," senior shortstop Katie Hoop said. "That gives us depth and versatility. I think as a team we will perform better than expected."The team looks strong. Two new starters, freshmen Sarah Klopfer and Sarah Grunert, combined for 15 strikeouts and a 4.74 earned run average over four starts during the team�s first series.Although she failed to record a win, sophomore Katie Ardrey picked up right where she left off last season, posting a 2.62 ERA while striking out four in three games.Another good sign for Hillsdale is the team�s chemistry."All of the intangibles are doing really good," Abraham said. "We just need some people to hit. It's that simple."So far, the Chargers have been handling the bat well, batting .314 and averaging 3.7 runs per game.Leading the senior class, center fielder Taylor Schulty (an All-GLIAC player last year) is hitting an even .500 in her first seven games with two doubles and four RBIs. Senior second baseman Miriam McKay has a .316 batting average with four walks and three RBIs.Although Hoop has gotten off to a slow start, hitting only .188, her .273 career batting average suggests it is nothing more than a slump and a return to form can be expected.Ainsley Ellison, Hillsdale's freshman left fielder, leads the team in batting average (.619), on-base percentage (.652), and slugging percentage (.714) to this point. In addition, she has done her job in the leadoff spot well, swiping three bases and scoring seven of the team's 26 runs.Freshman Danielle Garceau, who has spent time at both catcher and third base, put up an on-base percentage of .533 over four games, drawing two walks and logging two steals.In addition to pitching, Sarah Grunert is slated to play first base. Her .263 batting average thus far seems somewhat pedestrian, but Abraham remains confident."She�s been hitting non-stop since she got here," he said.The team�s biggest problem has been defense. The Chargers have already committed 21 errors (averaging three per game) and allowed 22 unearned runs. In comparison, their opponents have committed only seven errors and allowed a mere 10 unearned runs.While the young team has work to do, the Chargers seem set to win in 2012. They play their first home game on Saturday March 23 at 1 p.m. against the University of Findlay Oilers.�

Defense lawyers for defendants in the Seven Falls case say they can no longer be ready for trial in May because a deluge of new evidence threatens a "miscarriage of justice."
Defense lawyers for defendants in the Seven Falls case say they can no longer be ready for trial in May because a deluge of new evidence threatens a "miscarriage of justice."
In January, a U.S. District Court judge granted a continuance until May.
"Counsel for (Seven Falls developer Keith) Vinson agreed that he could be ready for trial May 6, 2013. This agreement by counsel was made without any knowledge or information that any significant additional discovery would be forthcoming," Vinson's attorney, J. Clark Fischer, said in the most recent motion to continue. "To counsel's surprise, an additional 64,000 pages of discovery documents were furnished ... This discovery production included a number of critical documents and witness interviews that had been completed well prior to the Jan. 29 status conference."
Fischer and other defense attorneys again filed motions for continuances until September, and a hearing on the motion made by attorneys for Thomas Durham Jr. will be held today at 11 a.m. Other requests are scheduled to be heard later this month.
History of delays
On Dec. 19, 2012, the court entered an order continuing the trial until the March 4, 2013 trial term. The trial date was pushed back again, to the May 6 trial term, after a Jan. 29 status conference.
During that conference in U.S. District Court in Asheville, defense lawyers said they had received about 109,000 pages of discovery.
Fischer stated in his most recent motion that "counsel has now been informed that an additional 95,000 pages of discovery will be forthcoming, as well as grand jury testimony from 25 civilian and law enforcement witnesses and an unknown number of exhibits. Thus the volume of discovery has almost tripled in the past six weeks."
Defense lawyers said they have faced challenges converting the "voluminous electronic discovery" into a "usable, searchable format." They also claimed that more time was needed for "meaningful plea negotiations."
Fischer said that with the overwhelming amount of discovery — 268,000 pages in all — it is "utterly impossible" to be ready for trial by May 6.
Vinson, along with defendants Avery Ted "Buck" Cashion III of Lake Lure, a real estate investor and private money lender; real estate and private money lender Raymond "Ray" Chapman of Brevard; former president of Pisgah Community Bank Thomas "Ted" Durham Jr. of Fletcher; Certified Public Accountant George M. Gabler; and Certified Real Estate Appraiser Aaron Ollis, have all pleaded not guilty to what prosecutors say was a scheme to prop up the struggling 1,400-acre Seven Falls golf course community just south of Etowah.
Co-defendant Andrew Quinn Hager of Hendersonville pleaded guilty to one count of conspiracy to commit bank fraud and agreed last month to work with authorities in the ongoing investigation.
Vinson faces federal charges of wire fraud conspiracy, three counts of wire fraud, misapplication of bank funds, bank fraud and money laundering. He was granted a public defender in May and entered a plea of not guilty through his lawyer Dec. 14.
Ollis has been charged with conspiracy to defraud the United States, bank fraud and misapplication of bank funds.
Gabler has been charged with bank fraud. Cashion, Chapman and Durham have been charged with wire fraud, money laundering, engaging in monetary transactions, misapplication of bank funds, bank fraud and conspiracy to defraud the United States.
The defendants were originally scheduled for trial during the court's June 25, 2012 criminal term.

The Bluejays already won the regular-season title. Now they have one final reason to celebrate.
The Bluejays already won the regular-season title. Now they have one final reason to celebrate.
The Augusta 7th-grade boys basketball team completed its season with a Pioneer League tournament championship after defeating Goddard 35-30 Tuesday night. The Bluejays, seeded No. 1 for the tournament, finished the season with an impressive 13-2 record.
The championship win didn't come easily. The Bluejays got off to a sluggish start as Goddard jumped to a 14-6 first-quarter lead. The Bluejays slowly climbed back in the game, getting within five points at halftime. The Bluejays showed they wanted it in the fourth quarter, outscoring Goddard 10-4 for the win.
Jonny Clausing led the Bluejays with 13 points. Noah Johnson scored a dozen points. Clay Wesbrooks added five points, Nate Kelley had three and Blake Bevan chipped in with two points.
After a first-round bye, Augusta defeated Ark City 40-32 behind a strong second quarter. Kelley finished the game with a team-high 16 points. Clausing had 14 points. Johnson added eight and Wesbrooks scored two.
For the 7th-grade team, it's the first PL tournament championship win since the 1996-97 season.
"A great season for a great group of boys," AMS boys head coach AJ Bodyk said.

At PC, Kris Dunn longs for a little of the old magic
Providence - There had always been a look about Kris Dunn. In his old life, anyway. The big smile. Wiseguy. Happy. Loving life. And why not? Great family. A million friends. King of the world. Or at least the 06320. McDonald's All-American. The only guy with his own banner in his high school gym, right there next to all the championships.
Life, however, has this funny way of happening. Dunn's life is new now. He's a college basketball player burdened by the expectations of his own excellence. A college basketball player whose freshman year has been hijacked by an injured shoulder. Not as much playing time. Now the same face that lit up New London High and gyms across Connecticut during four unforgettable winters is more serious. More sullen.
"This is not me," Dunn was saying Wednesday night.
He had just played all of nine minutes at the Dunkin Donuts Center, site of Providence College's near upset of No. 7 Syracuse. Dunn scored four points and committed two turnovers. The best way to describe his contribution: nondescript.
And that's not Kris Dunn.
"My shoulder still isn't right," Dunn said, alluding to the injury sustained last winter that kept him off the court for the Friars until mid December. "It's set me back a lot. Trying to get back into this is like trying to teach a baby how to play basketball. I'm not dribbling as hard."
To think that a year ago Wednesday, Dunn had the ball in his hands for the Whalers, scoring 35 points with 18 rebounds against Bacon Academy. Fast forward. There were approximately 11,000 more people watching him on this Jan. 9. The opposing coach went from Kevin Fennell to Jim Boeheim. And there was Dunn, relegated to the back of the PC zone, trying to get a body on 6-10 Baye Moussa Keita, 6-9 Rakeem Christmas and 6-8 C.J. Fair, among others. Players PC coach Ed Cooley called "long dudes" after the game.
This isn't the way it was drawn up. The McDonald's All-American was going to swoop in wearing the big "S" on his chest, right next to fellow prized recruit Ricky Ledo and deliver the Friars to salvation.
Then Dunn got hurt, Ledo was told by the NCAA he couldn't play this season and the Friars have lost four straight.
Dunn's family has read the Internet postings from the Friar faithful. And others. It's easy to suggest that you dismiss the rantings of Nitwit America. They don't stay on point. They spell every third word incorrectly. They send proper grammar careening down a flight of stairs. And yet it's the cumulative effect of their words that sting.
Dunn has learned what other McDonald's All Americans have: after the hosannas come the expectations.
He was asked if, in a perfect world, he would have liked to come to Providence with more anonymity.
"Nobody wants to have that pressure on their shoulders," Dunn said. "I guess some may. But to answer that question, I guess I'd say yes."
And yet he knows that's impossible.
The belief around the Friars is that the ball will be in Dunn's hands next year. This is the great learning curve. The entire team, save Vincent Council, is back. Ledo joins them. They should be drastically improved. And Dunn will be the face of the program.
But that doesn't make things any easier now.
"I've got to teach this program how to win. I'm not satisfied with close," Cooley said after the 72-66 loss to the Orange. "Our program will turn around when we learn how to win. Our time will come. It's just not right now. We need everyone to be patient and deal with the progress of rebuilding."
Ed Cooley was talking to all of Friardom.
But he could have been speaking straight to Kris Dunn.
"I'm waiting for my time," Dunn said. "Right now I'm just learning and seeing how college basketball is."
This is the opinion of Day sports columnist Mike DiMauro.

I am tired of watching our two Republican county commissioners bully our Democratic commissioner, Jim Eckstein.
County residents who watch the commissioners' meetings on Channel 10 will see what I mean. Commissioners Dale Pinkerton and William McCarrier often belittle and are rude to Eckstein.
What Eckstein says is what he believes. I don't always agree with him, but I know what he is saying he believes to be true.
He ran for county commissioner to try to expose and blunt the abuses of the long-running Republican machine that views county government as its plaything.
He fought to keep the Sunnyview Nursing and Rehabilitation Center from being privatized. He highlighted the huge cost overruns in the construction of the new prison. He wanted to find out why the extra costs connected to the prison project were necessary.
Eckstein's election put the fear of God in the Republican establishment. From day one, they needed to ridicule and demean him in order to marginalize him.
So far, the Republican plan has been working, because few people care about county government.
I encourage everyone to watch the commissioners' meetings on Channel 10. If enough people do, perhaps Pinkerton and McCarrier will work with Eckstein, not against him.

Guide for JOMT reviewers
This guide for reviewers contains information about basic considerations that should be applied when reviewing a manuscript that has been submitted to JOMT, and about the editorial standards of the journal. Other relevant information about the journal's aims and scope and editorial policies can be found at 'About this journal'. Submitted manuscripts are usually reviewed by two or more experts. Peer reviewers will be asked to recommend whether a manuscript should be accepted, revised or rejected. They should also alert the editors of any issues relating to author misconduct such as plagiarism and unethical behavior. JOMT operates using a closed peer review system. Publication of research articles by JOMT is dependent primarily on their validity and coherence, as judged by peer reviewers and editors. The reviewers may also be asked whether the writing is comprehensible and how interesting they consider the article to be. Submitted manuscripts will be sent to peer reviewers, unless they are out of scope or below the interest threshold of JOMT, or if the presentation or written English is of an unacceptably low standard.
Points to consider
Reviewers are asked to provide detailed, constructive comments that will help the editors make a decision on publication and the author(s) improve their manuscript. A key issue is whether the work has serious flaws that should preclude its publication, or whether there are additional experiments or data required to support the conclusions drawn. Where possible, reviewers should provide references to substantiate their comments. Reviewers should address the points below and indicate whether they consider any required revisions to be 'major compulsory revisions', 'minor essential revisions' or 'discretionary revisions'. In general, revisions are likely to be 'Major compulsory revisions' if additional controls are required to support the claims or the interpretations are not supported by the data, if further analysis is required that may change the conclusions, or if the methods used are inadequate or statistical errors have been made. Is the question posed original, important and well defined? The research question posed by the authors should be easily identifiable and understood. It is useful to both the editors and authors if reviewers comment on the originality and importance of the study within the context of its field. If the research question is unoriginal because related work has been published previously, please give references. Reviewers should ask themselves after reading the manuscript if they have learnt something new and if there is a clear conclusion from the study. Are the data sound and well controlled? If you feel that inappropriate controls have been used please say so, indicating the reasons for your concerns, and suggesting alternative controls where appropriate. If you feel that further experimental/clinical evidence is required to substantiate the results, please provide details. Is the interpretation (discussion and conclusion) well balanced and supported by the data? The interpretation should discuss the relevance of all the results in an unbiased manner. Are the interpretations overly positive or negative? Conclusions drawn from the study should be valid and result directly from the data shown, with reference to other relevant work as applicable. Have the authors provided references wherever necessary? Are the methods appropriate and well described, and are sufficient details provided to allow others to evaluate and/or replicate the work? Please remark on the suitability of the methods for the study, which should be clearly described and reproducible by peers in the field. If statistical analyses have been carried out, specify whether or not they need to be assessed specifically by an additional reviewer with statistical expertise. What are the strengths and weaknesses of the methods? Please comment on any improvements that could be made to the study design to enhance the quality of the results. If any additional experiments are required, please give details. If novel experimental techniques were used please pay special attention to their reliability and validity. Can the writing, organization, tables and figures be improved? Although the editorial team may also assess the quality of the written English, please do comment if you consider the standard is below that expected for a scientific publication. If the manuscript is organized in such a manner that it is illogical or not easily accessible to the reader please suggest improvements.

Now that Christmas is around the corner, you'll find me searching out scented indoor plants. I reserve a spot in my sunniest window for these special ones since the scent almost always comes from the flower and most flowering houseplants require bright light to thrive.
Here are some to try and another to take a gamble on.
The pure white paperwhiteNarcissus (a non-hardy or "tender" species of daffodil from the Mediterranean, Narcissus papyraceus), whose arrival in stores pronounces that Christmas is around the corner, is available already planted in pots, as singular bulbs or packaged multiples.
Although the common paperwhite has a somewhat strong (some say, offensive) scent, some paperwhites are advertised as having a lighter, less pungent fragrance. These are usually bi-colour, that is with white petals and a yellow corolla (or centre). This type comes from another tender species,Narcissus tazetta, which is unfortunately less readily available in stores. Nevertheless, make a point to ask around for named varieties, like Chinese Sacred Lily andConstantinople.
While I usually plant them in pots with soil and decorate with twigs, many gardeners use ceramic or glass bowls and plant these bulbs nestled among rocks or decorative pebbles. By filling the container with water right up to the base of the bulbs, you'll encourage the white roots to seek out this moisture and sprout vigorously, thereby securing them as they produce leaves and flowering stems.
But narcissus grown this way can often grow very tall and flop over. Believe it or not, the director of the Flower Bulb Research Program at Cornell University, Bill Miller, and one of his horticulture students, Erin Finan, conducted an experiment in 2005 in which they grew the plants in a diluted alcohol solution after they had achieved one to two inches of top-growth. These plants actually grew one-third shorter than the untreated bulbs. If you're inclined to try this remember: one part gin (or any liquor) to seven parts water.
Hyacinths (Hyacinthus orientalis) are intensely evocative spring flowers that have traditionally be grown in forcing vases. These are glass or ceramic containers with a cupped opening to cradle a single bulb and a wide base to accommodate its abundant root system. The challenge with hyacinth bulbs is that they need to be "forced", that is, encouraged to root into soil or water while exposed to chilled temperatures for several weeks. A cold but frost-free location is essential for this process and not all of us have access to this. If you use a fridge, you must avoid the presence of ethylene gas, which can be given off by ripening fruit, because this will damage the developing flowers.
Perhaps surprisingly, many of the other scented plants that are available during this time of year have white flowers. The Arabian jasmine (Jasminum sambac) is a shrubby form that can have a rather unruly shape but small, sweetly scented semi-double white flowers. This is perhaps the easiest form of jasmine to grow in the house, as long as you give it a bright spot with some humidity and go easy on the watering.
The climbing forms of jasmine (Jasminum officinale and Jasminum polyanthum) have clusters of single, white flowers and delicate pinnate leaves. These are often sold trained on a trellis, but need a more experienced owner to remain happy indoors. None of these jasmines are hardy for us as outdoor plants, so they must remain in their pots year round (although they would love to feel the fresh summer air).
Madagascar jasmine (Stephanotis floribunda) and wax plant (Hoya carnosa) are two twining plants with thick, waxy leaves that also have scented flowers. With an intensely heady fragrance while in bloom yet not particularly showy when not, these are worth cultivating for the flowers alone. Both of these plants are somewhat temperamental in that they do not like a change in condition (orientation or temperature) while getting ready to flower (or else they will abort and drop their buds), but neither is more finicky than the gardenia.
That fickle yet beautiful plant (Gardenia jasminoides) has been my nemesis for years and it is only the most dedicated indoor gardener who can get it to thrive and bloom indoors: Like a diva, in order to bloom it requires daytime temperatures between 18 and 21 C, and nights around 16 C. That's too much coddling for me. But give it a try: maybe you and it are meant for each other.

|Condition or disease
|HIV Infection
|Behavioral: Bruthas Project Behavioral: Standard HIV Testing and Counseling
|Phase 2
African Americans account for half of all Americans currently living with AIDS, and men account for two-thirds of all African Americans with HIV. AAMSMW are at particular risk for contracting and transmitting HIV, and represent a priority population for developing effective interventions. Studies of AAMSMW conducted in multiple HIV-epicenters in the United States have reported high rates of unprotected intercourse with male and female partners, concurrent partnerships, and frequent substance use before sex, accompanied by non-disclosure and secrecy regarding sexual risk behaviors. These behavioral dynamics are likely to fuel transmission of HIV and other STDs in diverse sexual networks and communities. Despite the urgent need for effective prevention approaches for AAMSMW, to our knowledge no evidence-based HIV interventions have been developed and tested for this population.
We propose to test a behavioral prevention intervention, the BP, to reduce HIV-related sexual risk behavior among AAMSMW. The intervention was designed through four years of formative research with AAMSMW consisting of: (1) qualitative in-depth interviews, focus groups and field ethnography; (2) protocol and measure development; (3) pilot testing and evaluation; and (4) further refinement following process and preliminary outcome data. The BP counseling process was formulated on principles of the Information-Motivation-Behavior (IMB) theory of HIV prevention, and is characterized by an individual-level counseling process that is specifically tailored to recognize the social and cultural contexts that inform sexual behavior for AAMSMW. Delivered in a series of four sessions by trained African American male counselors, the BP focuses on reviewing HIV transmission routes for male and female partners, strengthening sexual communication skills with both male and female partners, and improving condom use skills and other safer sex negotiation strategies. Evidence thus far indicates that BP is an acceptable and feasible model for providing HIV prevention counseling to this population, and pilot outcome data show promising indications of behavior change. A team of trained BP staff have successfully utilized a multi-tiered outreach approach to identify AAMSMW, recruit eligible individuals, and engage and retain participants in a longitudinal evaluation design. A randomized controlled trial of BP is necessary to determine the efficacy of the intervention and can lead to improved public health efforts at reducing HIV risk behavior among AAMSMW and in the African American community more generally.

Experimental: Comparison Group, Standard HIV-CT
The comparison group will receive standardized HIV counseling and testing (HIV-CT), with referrals to case management.
Behavioral: Standard HIV Testing and Counseling
This arm represents those receiving the standard HIV testing and counseling. We ultimately settled on the standard-of-care comparison group because our primary research question is whether the implementation of the intervention cast against the backdrop of usual care, in this case, HIV testing and counseling as mandated by the CDC, is efficacious. Thus, participants randomized to the comparison group will receive the current standard intervention which involves HIV testing, pre- and post-test counseling, plus linkage to case management. Individuals who test HIV-positive will be referred to post-test services including counseling for treatment options, HIV-positive support groups, and harm reduction workshops.
Experimental: Intervention Group, Bruthas Counseling
Participants assigned to this arm receive four individual HIV prevention counseling sessions.
Behavioral: Bruthas Project
The Bruthas Project HIV prevention intervention is a four-session, semi-structured individual risk reduction counseling program based on the Information-Motivation-Behavior (IMB) theoretical model. The counseling sessions are designed to complement standardized HIV-Counseling and Testing, and are delivered every 2-3 weeks over the course of 3 months. Each session lasts for approximately one hour, and is facilitated by a trained African American male counselor. The counselors engage with participants using open-ended questions and a non-judgmental, conversational style designed to elicit feedback on an individual's current level of HIV-related risk. The counselor then provides information and strengthens the participant's prevention skills.
- sexual risk behavior with male and female partners [ Time Frame: 9-months ]Our primary outcome measure will feature two approaches to assessing HIV risk: we will assess (a) general sexual risk behaviors during the past 3 months and (b) event-level characteristics of sexual risk episodes for the past 1 month. Participants will report on general sexual activity during the past 3 months, including insertive vaginal sex, insertive/receptive anal sex, and giving/receiving oral sex. They will report on overall number of episodes, number of unprotected episodes, and episodes by partner type (main, casual, paying) and by partner gender (male, female).
- HIV Testing [ Time Frame: 9 months follow up ]We will ask participants the date of their most recent HIV test.

When The Durango Herald sought to test the public records policies of other counties around Colorado, a standard request for a copy of the county managers employment contract drew a range of responses.
Of more than a dozen public-records requests made by phone to various Colorado counties, three asked for the request to be made by email, another two wanted a form filled out and two emailed the document without requiring a written request. Two counties required payment to copy the public record. One county never responded to the inquiry and several other counties said their manager did not have an employment contract
Such contracts and employment agreements for the heads of government agencies are considered public records under Colorados Open Records Act.
Most counties contacted needed additional time to find the appropriate person to respond to the request, often transferring the requestor or taking a message and promising to call back. Many county staff members who answered the phone didnt know whether the employment contract of the countys top employee was a public record and had to check with the county attorney or human resources department before fulfilling the request.
A call to the El Paso County budget office, for example, was met with a wall of questions.
Can I ask what this is regarding? Who are you with? What do you need? Could you explain it? asked Deanna Ruschioni, with the countys budget office.
A member of the county attorneys office asked similar questions, and then said she needed to check with the county attorney to see if the document was a public record she could give out.
Most employees in the counties contacted asked for the requestors identity and the reason for the inquiry.
Unfamiliarity with public records procedures is more common than one might think, said Michael Morisy, co-founder of Muckrock, an online public records request service. Requestors are not required to identify themselves or provide reasons for seeking records.
One thing weve really learned is how many government officials dont realize how the law applies to them, Morisy said. Its not uncommon to find government officials who have been in office for years and have never received a public records request.
George Sugars, Fremont county manager, seemed to be one of those officials.
Is this for county use? Sugars asked the requestor. Of course salary is public information, but normally I dont give that out. I guess Im not sure at this point what good that would be. Im not sure why you need it. I can tell you a few things in it. I guess Ive never been asked that before. Id hate to have my contract out there in the world. I dont know what you would use it for.
In the end, Sugars took the requestors email address and sent his employment contract.
Only two counties did not ask for the requestors name. One county, Summit County, declined to email the contract, citing security and confidentiality concerns. The administrative assistant did agree to mail the contract after the requestor mailed her $2.46 to cover the cost of copies and postage.
A new law passed by the state Legislature and signed by the governor March 8 requires records custodians to fax, email or mail public records if the requestor is unwilling or unable to pick up the records in person.
It took two phone calls and three voicemails left over the span of a week to get an answer from Garfield County. El Paso County never responded to the request despite three phone calls made to different departments.
Responding to open-records requests increasingly gets moved to the bottom of the priority list within local governments, which can lead to slow response times, Morisy said.
Especially now that budgets are tightened up all around, unfortunately, public-records compliance doesnt win elections, Morisy said. Its easy for government officials to deprioritize training and enforcement of open records laws.
The trend is only expected to grow as the number of reporters who tend to make those requests continues to shrink, he said.

TAUNTON — Michelle Picard said she fell in love with the game of hockey in Taunton, the city she's coming home to today with a silver medal in hand.
"I'm incredibly proud of it," said Picard, speaking with the Taunton Daily Gazette on Thursday from her Arlington apartment. "The medal represents a team and our journey and all the effort we put into it. No one can take that away from us."
The 20-year-old Picard is coming home to Taunton today after landing in Boston earlier this week with the rest of the Team USA women's hockey players. The city is holding a homecoming celebration for her medal winning accomplishments at the Silver City Galleria Mall from 5 to 6 p.m.
During an interview on Thursday with the Gazette, Picard said she hopes to return to the Winter Olympics in 2018 with the U.S. squad. But Picard tempered that by saying she is concentrating on continuing her college play in the fall at Harvard University.
"I hope so," said Picard, asked if she would be in the 2018 Winter Olympics in South Korea. "But, you know, four years is a long time. Anything could happen. I'm just kind of taking it day by day. I'm excited in the fall to get back with Harvard teammates. … I would love to get back there again, but anything can happen."
Picard recounted the heartbreaking ending to the U.S. women's gold medal match against Canada, which America's northern neighbors won in a dramatic late-game rally.
"It was devastating," Picard said. "We had 3 ½ minutes to go, with a two-goal lead. But in that moment, I knew there was still a lot of hockey left in the game. We've seen teams come back from that. We knew we had to play hard. We were. We didn't back down for a second. I'm proud of our team."
Picard was on the ice in overtime trying desperately to kill a penalty, as the Canadians played on a 5-3 power play advantage, when the winning goal was scored. Picard recalled the feeling of "disbelief" as she collapsed on the ice. Picard said as competitors, she and her teammates hate losing.
"The fact that it was over, it was all kind of hard to take in that moment," she said. "We have been training so hard, for so long, to win the gold. We didn't do it. We fell short. Yes, it sucks. But I'll never forget the experience. … I want it to be gold. But it is what it is."
The Team USA women's hockey players showed throughout the Olympic tournament that they were a top-class international team, speedy and skilled, outscoring opponents by wide margins. Picard, the shortest player on the team at 5-foot-4, and her fellow defensive players only allowed eight goals in five games during the Winter Olympic tournament, including six in two games against Canada.
"I was so happy about the way we played," said Picard, who had been in an Olympic training camp with Team USA since last September. "All season long, coach expected excellence, and that's it. She expected us to play our game. That's what we went in there doing. … We truly played USA hockey and showed what we could do."
Picard said she didn't pay attention to social media or the news while she was in Sochi with the team. But once the games were over, she read and heard about how people back home in Taunton and throughout Massachusetts were watching the games, cheering her on and showing pride about her.
"While I was there, I sheltered myself from media," Picard said. "It wasn't until after two days after that final, I kind of sat down and was excited to see all of this. I was blown away. All these people. I had know idea about the impact our team had. I couldn't believe it and the amount of support people had. I still can't believe it."
Picard said that she is excited and thankful about the city organizing a celebration for her at the Silver City Galleria today, adding that "it will be a special day" in Taunton sharing the silver medal with everyone back home.

About this Publication TitleFinal Payment Vouchers Index for Military Pensions,...
Pension payment records are not typically found in pension application files. These cards were created as an index for the final payments made to either the veteran or his widow. They provide additional details on where a family may have moved in the early- to mid-19th century, death dates of veterans, widows, or dependent children, and sometimes the maiden name of a widow.

Beware of your plants
Posted 04 April 2006 - 12:11 AM
Take this poor soul for example:
Minnesota: 1991
A lady bought a large cactus from a floral store and took it home. The cactus was one of the larger ones that stands about five feet tall. She found a nice sunny spot to put it in, and went about her business. That night, her daughter was sitting in the room reading and heard this strange sound. She looked around and couldn't find anything, so she went back to reading. The sound repeated itself, and after searching, she realized it was coming from the area of the cactus. She looked all around the cactus and didn't see anything, and then the noise repeated again, but louder. She looked at the cactus and couldn't believe her eyes... it looked like it was breathing. The sides were moving in and out, and had wave like motion travelling up it. She called her mom and told her what was going on, and her mom told her to get out of the house right away while she called the police and drove home.
The police arrived with the bomb squad and put the cactus in a large container to take it away. Just as they were about to close the container, a portion of the cactus gave way, and hundreds of baby tarantulas crawled out.
What do you think? Can something like this happen? Is it plausible? Can insects lay their eggs inside of a plant and have them hatch later?
Just make sure you take a stethoscope to the garden shop and listen to your plants before you buy them. If you hear "lub dub.... lub dub... lub dub" (immitates a heart sound) don't buy that one

I've heard this one from my own mother and thankfully i've been given the gift of not being able to grow/keep alive anything plantlike in my home
Or do things worth the writing.

I would freak out!.....I know that bugs can lay eggs in some crazy places...but that tops it!
No, what tops it was when they used my husbands thigh as an incubaor in Figi!

Snopes.com that investigates stories like this says this is just a legend.
Yes, I knew it was an Urban Legend when I posted it in "Urban Legends" The story may seem far fetched, and of course is known to be false, but the real question is, is it plausible? Maybe you aren't letting Tarantulas into your house, but what are you letting in?
When an insect lays it's eggs in a plant, it's called a "Gall"
Here are some examples that may be attached to plants that you bring home

Sooo, they are out there

Thanks for the photos of larvae in/on plants though. We can also bring in buggers on us! Ticks and fleas jump up onto our pants legs, spiders can drop down on our clothes/hair from above. And they can come in on our pet's coats as well. Ah spring, when a squeamish person's heart turns to pesticide...

Everyone who owns an aquarium knows to set up a quaruntine tank for new arrivals. Only after a month of being quaruntined is the new plant / fish is allowed into the big tank. Oh, you can't mix different stages in the same tank (the month would start over for everyone in there).

vomit pink
Here's a (shaky) video I took flipping through the insert I curated with Edward of Meadham Kirchhoff for the last issue of GARAGE Magazine. It's all included in the intro I wrote, scanned in below, but basically when Dasha asked me if I had any ideas for the debut issue I was feeling really inspired by blogs and zines of girls and young women who wanted to take Riot Grrrl nostalgia a little further through their writing/photography/etc., and felt very drawn to the idea of creating a space for that in a prestigious art and fashion magazine. When I sent all those links to Edward he was inspired by them too and because he basically lives in a vacuum of lace and stickers and ribbons he thought we should decorate their photos and everything ourselves, so everything throughout the insert is a little embellished.
Unfortunately parts were edited out once we passed it on to the magazine, but thanks to everyone who contributed and let us use their work: Arvida, Beth of Girls Get Busy, Claire, Clementine of GrrrlVirus, Grace Miceli, Kaitlyn of Kerplunk-Punk, Kelley McNutt, Louise Gray, Molly Soda, Natalya Lobanova of happy2bsad, Petra Collins, Sharna, and Sophie Convey.
I also moderated an interview between Mellody Hobson and Ikram Goldman for that issue, but the magazine is too speshul to bend and scan and everything. It was a delight, however, to interview businesswomen for a fashion magazine. This is me, recommending that you buy and read it, because there are also Prada dresses made out of fruit, and that's just down right enjoyable.

MACEDON � A mixed-use project in a southwestern section of town is moving ahead after getting an approval from the Town Board.
Four Points Land Development, LLC got conditional rezoning for a Totally Planned Development for its 47-acre tract on Wayneport Road and Route 31. Four Points spokesman Andrew Iwasykiw said the development will have 24 single-family homes, 69 townhouses, a clubhouse, a 24,000-square-foot medical facility and a three-story, 90-bed assisted-living center.
Iwasykiw said the entrance to the tract would now be off Carlson Road, not Wayneport. He was told by the board that if his company fails to get final plan approval, the zoning will return to its current state. Board members David Maul and Sandy Pagano thanked Iwasykiw for listening and acting on residents� comments at the Sep. 12 public hearing.
Studies done by the developer show little change in the town�s population; however, in the next five years, residents over the age of 65 will increase y 12.6 percent.
Still, some residents have some concerns, including the volume of traffic and speeds.
�There will be lots of traffic on Wayneport,� said resident Jim Byron.
Hammond responded that the speed limit had been lowered once already. Highway Superintendent Dick Roets told the board it could �get ahead of that (reducing the speed limit) by request to the county.�
Hammond referred to a speed study that was done in that area: �People are doing about the speed limit, I think.�
Police Chief John Colella said his department had indeed done a study before the Sep. 12 hearing, noting a �very minimal peak speed, only two miles per hour over the speed limit.� He added that the study had given police a chart of traffic times and speeds, �so we can target enforcement.�
Bryon cautioned that drivers in the area would have to be especially careful when construction starts and big trucks use the road.
Approvals for the entire project are expected to take through the end of the year.

I am the owner of the six horses illegally seized in Chicora by Equine Angels founder Pam Vivirito and associates. I am writing because these organizations practicing in Butler and surrounding counties should be required to operate at the utmost high standards of honesty and integrity that the people of Western Pennsylvania are accustomed to.
Five horse owners filed an extortion and racketeering lawsuit against Vivirito and others involved in these illegal seizures of horses, Trooper Shawn King and Equine Angels veterinarian Brian Burks.
There are countless other victims before us who have contacted attorneys and are now surveying their legal options against these illegal seizure of horses.
We as Butler County residents have all found ourselves in similar situations with strong-arm tactics of companies and organizations wanting our land and property. We trust them to hold themselves to the same standard of honesty and integrity that we live our daily lives by, then find ourselves easy prey because we are trusting people.
The proposed guidelines by District Attorney Rich Goldinger in dealing with future allegations of equine neglect is a step in the right direction. Organizations handling any new protocol in place need to use a neutral veterinarian and not one of their own. They must work under the highest levels of honesty and integrity or face prosecution themselves and not be influenced by money, power or greed.
In closing I would like to thank my friends, family and neighbors who have supported me through this experience as well as my newfound friends who have experienced the same problems with Equine Angels and its associates.
