Writing Homework Five Student Answers
From Conservapedia
"We Pick Rick!" [EXCELLENT TITLE]
The presidential election of 2012 will certainly be an election to remember. With the republican primaries in full swing there is a tight race between four candidates, Rick Santorum, Mitt Romney, Newt Gingrich and Ron Paul. These candidates all have something good to offer. However, the candidate who will have the best chance in beating President Obama in the 2012 race is Rick Santorum. With his ultra conservative mind set [ONE WORD, NOT TWO: ["MINDSET"], Santorum will be able to be a stark contrast against Obama. Santorum is pro-life, pro-family and pro-America, everything which President Obama is not [SUPERB WRITING!]. Through his willingness to stick to what he believes in, his level[NEED HYPHEN]headed attitude, and his radically [THE WORD CHOICE OF "RADICALLY" DOES NOT HELP YOUR ARGUMENT HERE; PERHAPS "STRONGLY" OR "SOLIDLY" OR "PRINCIPLED"] conservative mind set, Rick Santorum truly is the best candidate for the republican nomination, and even for President of the United States.
"Practice what you preach!" is a very famous saying taking its origin from the Bible. Rick Santorum truly believes in practicing what he preaches. Santorum is a homeschooling dad of seven children. So needless to say, he is pro-life and pro-family. He takes time out of his busy schedule to spend time with his family. He knows that family values are something which are lacking in this country and that the dignity of the human person is being diminished. The Santorums truly believe in the dignity of all human life. They have a daughter named Bella who was born with a rare genetic disorder known as Trisomy 18. The Santorums support Bella and thank God for the gift of her life even though it can sometimes be difficult to take care of her. Rick thanks his family every single time he addresses his supporters and he sends a special shout out to his lovely daughter Bella. Rick Santorum does indeed stick to what he says. This is a trait which America is in desperate need of right now. President Obama told Americans that when he became president, he would decrease the deficit which our country is currently encountering. But what has our President done in the past four years he has been in office, he has tripled the deficit, and it is still rising! America needs a President who sticks to his words and who once in office, does exactly what he said he would do. America does not need another phoney who lies just to get elected into office. [NEED NEW PARAGRAPH] Newt Gingrich would be a bad choice primarily because he has had a sketchy past. With the affairs he had with his ex-wife and the statements he now makes about it, portray how untrustworthy he would be as a president [THIS SENTENCE HAS A GRAMMATICAL PROBLEM]. Mitt Romney would also be a poor choice, due to his proposed healthcare plan for Massachusetts. His plan which he tried to push through as legislation when he was the governor, was exactly the same as Obama care. Romney now claims to be a republican [CAPITALIZE "R" IN "Republican"], but the republican party is trying to repel Obama care. Romney does not seem like a good choice, because he does not stick to his word. Once elected into office, Romney could do anything he wanted to. Thus Rick Santorum truly is the best choice, because he sticks to his words, and he practices what he preaches.
Rick Santorum is a fantastic choice for the presidential nominee, because he is level headed [REPETITIOUS WORD CHOICE] and deals with the problems which are facing our Nation. An example of this can be found in Santorum's ideas for foreign policy. Santorum realizes the crisis which we are in and he knows that if we ignore the Middle East and quickly pull out all of our troops, then there will be chaos and disaster. Ron Paul does not seem to have a very strong foreign policy system. He does not seem to know what is going on in any other part of the world other than the United States. He does not even seem to know about the current war we are in! If he becomes president, then he would blow us off of the face of the earth. Rick Santorum also acknowledges the fact that our Country is presently in a state of financial disaster. Once in office, Newt Gingrich wants to push ahead this great system for social security. While this method of benefits sounds good in theory, our country currently has no money to support it. Gingrich wants to entice people into buying social security by advertising greater benefits. This idea is great, for it would build up the social security business and people would have greater retirement plans. Oh, but wait a minute, did Gingrich forget? [GOOD RHETORICAL STYLE] Our Country is already in a tremendous amount of debt. So obviously this is not going to work. Gingrich needs to get his head out of the clouds and deal with the problem. Santorum believes in cutting spending first, stabilizing the deficit, and then passing out benefits. Our Country cannot think about paying people more money when we are in a tremendous amount of foreign debt. Thus Santorum is the right guy to choose because he is level headed and deals with the problems which are right in front of him.
One of the most important qualities about Santorum is his extremely conservative way of thinking. Santorum believes in the Republican party, he believes in fighting for the morals of the platform of the Republican party. He believes in us. Never has Santorum signed a bill or stood up for anything which is contrary to the moral views of the Republican Party. Ron Paul, and Mitt Romney have done things in their past which contradict the Republican point of view. Ron Paul, being more of a Libertarian then a Republican, has extremely pacifistic ideas regarding our foreign policy. He does not agree with the war we are currently involved in. he also believes in investigation before killing. When Osama bin Laden was assassinated by our military, Paul thought that we should have questioned Osama bin Laden instead of shooting him. By capturing and questioning him, yes our military would have received much information, but if someone who has led an attack on our country and has killed thousands of American citizens, is not hunted down and exterminated, then our country is in danger. Our people are in danger. We are at war, and we need to do whatever it takes to keep the American people safe. Santorum believes in fighting to keep the American people safe. As president, he will do whatever it takes to end our war on terrorism. As we have briefly discussed earlier, Mitt Romney also has a checkered past when it comes to his views on the Republican platform. Romney's most controversial mistake was his healthcare plan with he pushed for the state of Massachusetts. Romney wanted complete government funding of healthcare. He wanted the government to become totally involved in our medical field. In other words, he wanted the government to control our lives. This sounds vaguely familiar. Oh of course, it sounds like Obama care. Now what Republican in their right mind would want Romney as their new president. For the republican party as been fighting to repel Obama care and now they have a candidate who is running for the 2012 election who has created his own, "Obama Care." Rick Santorum would never do anything which is contrary to what he believes in. His ideas coincide with the ideas of all Republicans for he would stick to his word, and to his ultra conservative ways.
Thus through the above examples, it is self-explanatory who should be the republican nominee [THIS SENTENCE COULD BE STRONGER]. With his conservative views, his willingness to hold fast to what he believes in, and his overall moral ethics, Rick Santorum truly is the best choice for the Republican nominee. Our country needs a president, who once in office will do what he advertised he would do. America needs a president who can stand on his own two feet and make a bold change. Rick Santorum is that candidate, he is that man. The Republican party should pick Rick for their nominee and our country should pick him for president. [GOOD, STRONG CONCLUSION]

Ride a stage like that, doing everything right, and you get the win like Sagan did today on the Hulk, his green machine. Here's his bike, how it was painted, and built up from Cannondale on YouTube
I rode a Cdale Evo earlier this year at a SRAM media event introducing their new Hydro road rim and disc brakes. That was the bike that I took hot into the corners, tapped the brakes, and flew out the other side.
Can assure you these work to bring a rider to an on-the-dime stop at a light or on a twenty percent drop before a hard left into S-curves at 40 mph.

Hello all -
I have the chance to buy a Siel DK700, roughly for around 200 bucks. It is from a seller near me who doesn't know music equipment, just picked it up at an auction. he is selling it for nearly 400, but i asked if i drove to him if he would drop it - anyways, what i'm wondering is...is this worth it?
Is there anyone that owns one of these or has owned one? are the pretty good? sturdy? reliable? i can't find much of any info on these units, and unfortunately i cannot find ANY sound samples. I'm just now getting into buying old synths, and i don't want to get hosed on this if its not worth it.
any responses with info and/or experiences would be great!
Thanks so much,

I was playing Cynli in WSG the other night when I got whispered by a rogue on my team.
God, you suck.
Wait, what? What the fuck?
Holy shit man, do you even know how to play? I can see what you're doing.
It was at the end of a long day at work. I was in my son's room, waiting for him to go to sleep. It wasn't a great game for us – the Horde was working well together, putting a lot of pressure on our GY. We weren't getting farmed, but we were starting to get bottled up.
I decided to take my chances and try to break through their lines – I was able to keep a few of them off of me, perhaps if we made a concerted effort to punch through their lines we could break the vice – worst case, get someone through to the flag. I ran through them, healing healing healing healing dead. They overwhelmed me.
You just ran straight at them. Holy shit you're terrible. Stealth around them!
This rogue was not going to give me a break. I got pissed, really pissed. I'll be honest – I think my first thought was a very uncharitable, "holy shit, do you know who the fuck I am, buddy?" – but then I came back to reality and just ignored him.
Release Spirit Y/N?
/ignore rogue
29 seconds to resurrection.
Well, damnit. We're losing. Am I healing okay? Scoreboard says I'm healing okay, I'm 3x the nearest healer. I'm doing things right.
24 seconds to resurrection.
What the hell was I thinking, running into that pack? I might not be able to stealth that well, but at least I could have not just suicided into the Horde.
15 seconds to resurrection.
I shouldn't PvP when I'm this tired. What the hell was I thinking, that I could distratct a group like that? That shit only works in Strand and EotS.
10 seconds to resurrection.
WTF am I thinking, justifying myself with the scoreboard? The scoreboard doesn't mean jack or shit.
5 seconds to resurrection.
Maybe he was right.
The problem with hostile criticism is not that it's criticism, but rather that it's hostile, which makes us immediately defensive. When we're defensive, we're closed to the possibility that we could be wrong. That's why effective criticism isn't hostile – if you want to actually change someone's behavior with your criticism, how you say it is as important as what you say.
But being hostile doesn't make the criticism any more or less valid. It just makes sucking hurt more.
It's important to distinguish between criticism of an activity versus criticism of yourself as a person. This is a tough thing to learn in life; doing things poorly doesn't mean you're a failure at life. It doesn't mean you're doing them well – but failing at something doesn't make you a waste of human genome.
Attitude is key. Jesus christ, I'm sounding like my father, but he was right – attitude is key. It's okay to fail. It's okay to let people down. It's not okay to stop trying to do better. It's not okay to give up. Claim your successes, learn from your failures.
I remember the first time I got actively ridiculed in Warcraft. It was on my 59 DK, and some guy came up to me while I was at the training dummies. He laughed at me and said my spec was terrible. "Okay, I've been playing him for about a week, any suggestions how to improve?" "lol noob l2p" was all I got back.
I was pretty chuffed at that. But I really didn't know what the hell I was doing on my DK yet, I knew I didn't, so once I got over the gall of someone criticising a stranger, I went and asked for Twitter help on my build. I rebuilt my Frost spec and, indeed, did better. I stopped sucking.
It was easier for me to accept that criticism on my DK because I felt like I didn't know what I was doing, and the criticism was open. On my Druid, I actually felt like I knew what the haps are, and in WSG I feel like I know what the fuck I'm supposed to do.
So this impertinent rogue had a lot of gall telling me to learn to play. I know WSG, buddy!
But the rogue was right. I wasn't playing well. I certainly wasn't playing as well as I know how to play.
I pulled my shit together, waited for teammates to rez, and healed them as they went out of the GY. When they went down to the zerg I hid and abandoned them to die, sneaking around the Horde and getting into the base. The rogue was running the flag and I healed him as best as I could – which was pretty well – but we couldn't get the other flag down, we were behind 2-0. We lost.
It's okay to suck. Honestly, it is. There are plenty of times I really shouldn't PvP – I'm exhausted, I'm stressed out, I'm not really focused on what I'm doing – but sometimes, PvP is really what I want to do right then. I don't need to be at top performance all the time, as nice as it is. PvP takes my mind off my day, it makes me focus on pushing buttons. BUTTONS I LIKE TO PUSH YOU LET ME PUSH YOU PUSH PUSH PUSH.
But I should be honest with myself when I'm not playing well, and accept criticism when it's deserved.

Help reduce campus thefts
Theft on college campuses is often a crime of opportunity — somebody takes advantage of an unattended cell phone, an unlocked car door or a laptop visible in the window of a parked car.
Please help yourself by taking a moment to secure your belongings:
- In the library, if you step away from your table, take your laptop with you.
- Lock the door to your residence hall room, even if you leave for only a minute.
- In the Rec Center, lock your items in a locker.
- In your car, tuck valuables out of sight. Do not leave money, electronics, etc. in view.
- Resident students and overnight parkers should move their vehicles every few days.
The University aggressive pursues those caught stealing. Last year, all students who were found responsible for theft were suspended by the University, while nonstudents charged with theft were aggressively sent through the criminal justice system.
UA will continue to do its part to help reduce theft. Please do your part by being thoughtful about how you store your belongings.
Our mission
The mission for every member of this agency is to consistently seek and find ways to affirmatively promote, preserve and deliver a feeling of security, safety and quality services to members of our community.

Author Notes: I hate throwing edible things away - and was beginning to get devastated by the idea of all the good whey I was discarding after making Jennifer Perillo's ricotta every few weeks (yes, I admit - I have a ricotta making and eating problem). I stumbled across an article that listed the many uses of whey, one of which being a substitute for buttermilk. I immediately applied it to one of my most made recipes - a version of my mother's incredible drop biscuits. The result was lighter and fluffier than normal - and I've been making them this way ever since! My mom puts dried fruit or (another favorite) dark chocolate chunks in hers - but I like them plain with good butter. —Erin McDowell
Food52 Review: WHO: Erinmcdowell is a writer, editor, and food stylist -- and occasional Food52 test kitchen assistant!
WHAT: Fluffy, delicate, lightly-sweet biscuits -- and homemade molasses-y butter to slather all over them.
HOW: Make butter (you can do it!) by whipping cream and molasses, and skimming off the liquid. Mix together your biscuits, drop them on a baking sheet, and butter them as soon as they're out of the oven. Feel very happy.
WHY WE LOVE IT: Let's look past the fact, for a moment, that these were the best biscuits we've had in a long time. We love that erinmcdowell calls for making your own butter in such a nonchalant way -- because once you do it, you realize how easy it can be. And the fact that these biscuits are adaptable makes them easy to whip up whenever the mood strikes; if you have leftover whey from making ricotta, you should use it, but feel free to swap in buttermilk. —The Editors
Makes: 1 dozen medium biscuits
Drop Biscuits
cups all purpose flour
cup brown sugar
1 1/2
teaspoons baking powder
teaspoon baking soda
teaspoon salt
tablespoons cold unsalted butter, cubed
cup whey (from making ricotta or butter) OR buttermilk
teaspoon vanilla extract
turbinado sugar, as needed to garnish
Molasses Butter
cups heavy cream
gallons generous pinch salt
tablespoons molasses (Steen's is the best I've ever tasted)
Drop Biscuits
- In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt to combine. Cut in the butter and mix until it ranges in size from peas to walnut halves in the dough. This can be done by pulsing in the food processor but I prefer to do it by hand.
- Whisk the whey/buttermilk, egg, and vanilla to combine. Add the mixture to the dough and mix just until it comes together - it should be pretty shaggy but evenly combined.
- Drop the dough onto a parchment lined baking sheet and sprinkle with turbinado sugar. Bake in a 375 degree oven until golden at the top and around the edges, 12-15 minutes.
Molasses Butter
- Whip the cream in an electric mixer on medium high speed. You can follow Ashley Rodriguez' instructions for cultured butter. Whip until the buttermilk separates, then pour it off. Add 1/2 cup of water and mix for another minute or so, then pour off the liquid. Repeat 2-3 times or until the liquid is mostly clear when it is poured off.
- Season the butter with salt, and whip in the molasses. Mix until well combined. Slather on warm drop biscuits.

The Art of Nails
Good morning lovelies. Hope you're having a fabulous week!
Today I'd like to talk a little bit about nails. From your comments over the past few weeks, I can tell that a lot of you are obsessed with nails these days. And you're not alone. I'm right there with you. Us and pretty much everyone else it seems.
I've been monitoring nail trends since I first started working in the beauty industry {I won't count the years because then I'll feel real old, but trust be it's been a loooong time:)} and this is, by far, one of the most exciting times I've seen in the nail arena.
Sure there was Vamp {which was released my first year working in the beauty industry. Hint, hint :)}, Minx, and a few other things that made women excited over the years, most notably limited edition shades especially those released by Chanel, but we're really all over the place now.
Glitter and metallic, ombré nails nails executed two ways...each finger a different color in progression from light to dark or ombré on an individual nail from root to tip, glitter accents... glitter French tip, reverse French and glitter ring finger, matte, matte/shiny blends, crackle, nail strips, and my latest obsession magnetic nail polish. There's a lot going on, no?
A little bit about magnetic nail polish. I know it's been available in Europe for a while now but the states are finally getting a taste of it. Nails Inc. recently launched in Sephora US it is beyond fabulous! The nail color is infused with metallic particles and after applying the second coat you hold the magnetic bottle cap over your nail to create at really cool 3D looks. You can play for hours, I promise! Too much fun especially for a beauty junkie like me. :)
So what about you all? Any particular nail trends that you're playing with these days? Have any of you tried magnetic nail polish before? If so, 'd love to hear how you like it.
Enjoy the day, sweets!

Oh I really love this post.
I am a nail polish enthusiast (love playing with them),

Oh yes, I do love painting my nails! I love the darker colours and tend to stick to Chanel as they don't seem to chip as much. My favs are Blue Satin (deep blue), Vendetta (deep purple) and Particuliere (brown/grey). For everyday I do also love Ballerina, which is a gorgeous soft pink. Great post Dawn! xx

I'm loving the glitter trend that's out there right now, gonna have to have a bit of a trial session & play around with a few ideas that I've seen on various blogs xoxo
- October 13, 2011 at 6:21 AM
Yes, I am feeling the "fingernail fever" too. I am thinking of buying a shellac light for gel nails, (one of the perks of being a licensed stylist). That way, polish would stay on for a good 14 days. Logan's friends would all be over here non-stop... not sure there would much time left for much else if I get the light! xo

I love experimenting with my manicures! I love the ombre trend (both of the ways...) but I haven't gotten around to actually try it out yet... I've never heard about magnetic manicure before (which one of the photos is it?) but it sure sounds interesting! I also love the reverse french manicure with glitter - so pretty!

I have never been into it but have definitely noticed the large amount of nail art photos on Pinterest and blogs! The ombre ones (each nail) are really cool!
What about pedi's? Any trends there? And since I'm so out of the nail-club, are we still not matching or matching our mani's and pedi's? (See, I'm THAT out.)

Hello beauty!! I absolutely loved reading this, and I just always want to do more with my nails! It's exciting that you work in the beauty industry, and your knowledge of the trends is so impressive! I really just want to go nail polish shopping with you now! :) I naturally have really long strong nails, so I worry that a lot of these trends would be overwhelming for my long long nails. What do you think? What do you think is the best trend for nails that naturally grow French-tip-like? For having as great of nails as I do, I never take care of them like I should! :(
Such a fun post Dawn, and loving these images of beautiful nails!!!

Nails have kind of been at the bottom of my beauty prep list but I totally agree, they seem more exciting right now- just so many cool new applications- like those black with sparkly tips...so heavenly. All of these new products etc. are making me want to pay more attention to my rather sad looking nails...to much pretty not to try!

Dawn, you have no idea how much I like this post! Even though I get more product sent to me than I could ever use, polish never gets old for me--I always have so much fun with it! I haven't tried magnetic polish yet but I am in LOVE with the dark sea colors for fall and winter :)

You know how much I love nail trends! :) I still need to master the ombre (I like it on each nail as opposed to the whole hand, obviously harder to do which I why I need to work on it lol) and I still need to pick up a Nails Inc magnetic polish! With Sephora's friends and family sale coming up thatll probably be a good time :)

In the last 10 months I have gone from owning less than 10 nail polishes to over 40. I used to stick to reds and nudes, but now I'm willing to try anything. Most recently I've been loving glittery polishes, especially those with big chunky glitter.

I loove the ombre nail look, but I haven't even mastered painting my nails to where they look professionally done. I never get the ends like they do at the salon, so I haven't tried the tricky stuff, but I really want to. Perhaps my unsteady hand would help with the Ombre though! I do love the glitter or different color on the ring finger. My girlfriend kept blue on her ring finger leading up to the birth of her son. :)

HARTSVILLE, S.C. – Four members of the Coker College men's lacrosse team have been selected as all-conference performers by the South Atlantic Conference, it was announced today.
Leading the way was midfielder Mike Martiello, who was tabbed as a second-team selection. Rounding out the honorees were attackmen Ryan Maurer and Andy Campos, and defender Dylan Marks, who all made it as honorable mention selections.
Martiello had a stellar year for the Cobras as he led the team with 53 points on 32 goals and 21 assists. His point total, goals and assists ranked him in the top five of all three categories in the SAC statistical standings, while his 50-point season was only the second in program history.
A sophomore from Westbury, N.Y., Martiello is a business administration major. He is the son of Denise and Joseph Malone and Joseph Martiello.
Maurer, a dynamic playmaker, led the Coker offense with 29 assists, while adding 16 goals for 45 points on the season. His assist and point totals ranked first and fifth in the SAC, respectively.
Hailing from Mt. Sinai, N.Y., Maurer is a senior education major with a concentration in elementary education. He is the son of Maureen and Alan Maurer.
Campos was a vital part to the Navy and Yellow's success offensively as he finished the season with the team's third highest point total. He tallied 42 points on 24 goals and 18 assists to rank in the top ten of each category in the SAC.
A senior from Los Angeles, Calif., Campos is a business administration major with a concentration in sport management. He is the son of Veronica Campos.
Marks was the defensive catalyst for Coker as he registered 29 ground balls and 13 caused turnovers on the year. His 13 caused turnovers were good for 10th in the SAC statistical standings.
A Westminster, Md. native, Marks is a junior physical education and sport studies major with a concentration in exercise science. He is the son of Jean and Steve Marks.
Release written by Coker sports information graduate assistant Sharod Williams.

CHESTNUT HILL, Mass. – In its first action of the New Year, the MIT women's fencing team went 4-2 in the second and final Northeast Fencing Conference competition of the season held this past weekend at Boston College. The Engineers defeated Tufts University (17-10), Smith College (21-6), Dartmouth College (18-9), and Vassar College (14-13) but lost to the host Eagles (15-12) and Brown University (21-6).
Junior Robin Shin (Brookline, Mass.) was a force to be reckoned with as she compiled a total of 17-1 which powered the sabre squad to a 36-18 record. Senior Molly Kozminsky (Port Matilda, Pa.) had a tally of 14-4 while junior Elisabeth Morant (Chicago, Ill.) came in at 5-13. The trio registered wins over Dartmouth (9-0), Smith (7-2), BC (6-3), Tufts (5-4), and Vassar (5-4) with their only loss being a 5-4 decision versus Brown.
The epee team comprised of freshman Sarah Alkilany (Brooklyn, N.Y.) and seniors Kirsten Hessler (Roswell, Ga.), Breanna Peterman (Selden, N.Y.), and Rachel Williams (Merritt Island, Fla.) racked up a ledger of 31-23 as the Cardinal and Gray swept Smith, overpowered Dartmouth (7-2), and edged out BC and Tufts by a 5-4 score. Alkilany paced the squad with a mark of 10-6, followed by Hessler (9-7), Peterman (7-7), and Williams (5-3).
Senior Julia Hopkins (New York, N.Y.) was the top performer for the foil contingent as she finished at 9-9. Junior Julia Kimmerly (Middlesex, Vt.) recorded a 5-7 outing as senior Ana Escalante (Los Angeles, Calif.) earned a record of 6-12. Senior Elizabeth Min (Little Neck, N.Y.) rounded out the group with a tally of 1-5.

Next up for the Engineers will be the Eric Sollee Invitational hosted by Brandeis University on Saturday, Feb. 4.

CNN - Authorities in the Los Angeles suburb of Anaheim, California, have asked for a federal investigation into a pair of weekend police shootings that have sparked days of protests, the city's mayor said Wednesday.
Police Chief John Welter said officers made 24 arrests after a protest that began at a City Council meeting Tuesday night turned violent, with demonstrators breaking windows and throwing rocks and bottles at police. Police responded with batons and nonlethal "bean-bag" and pepper spray projectiles, he said.
Anaheim Mayor Tom Tait told reporters Wednesday that he asked the U.S. attorney's office in Los Angeles to investigate the fatal shootings of two men by police, but said violent protests "will simply not be tolerated in our city."
"When the investigations are concluded, we will have a clear and complete understanding of these incidents," Tait said. "At that time, we will have additional public dialogue about any actions that need to be taken. ... We will not, however, accept any violent protests, vandalism or arson perpetrated under the guise of public protest."
The family of the first man killed, 25-year-old Manuel Diaz, filed a civil rights and wrongful death lawsuit against the city and Police Department Tuesday seeking $50 million in damages.
The suit, filed in state court, says police shot the unarmed Diaz in the back and that when he fell, they shot him in the head and killed him.
Welter said there were more than 1,000 protesters Tuesday night, about two-thirds of whom were not from Anaheim -- but 20 of the 24 people arrested were local.
"Our job is to protect property and life. Our job isn't to stand back in the back and let anarchists or rioters damage property and injure people," he said. "And if we don't do that, you'll be the first one criticizing me for where were the police, how come they weren't out there protecting property and people."
Those arrested face charges ranging from failure to disperse to assault with a deadly weapon. One man was found with a handgun, Welter said.
Tuesday night's demonstration began with protests outside the City Council's meeting at the Anaheim City Hall, less than a mile and a half north of Disneyland, the city's most famous tourist attraction.
Demonstrators disrupted the meeting and blocked access to the building, forcing a delay in the session as police moved to clear emergency exits, Welter said.
The protest moved to downtown streets, where demonstrators blocked a major intersection and refused to move, Welter said.
"After allowing the crowd to protest for a couple of hours, the violence escalated to the point where an unlawful assembly was declared and the streets were then cleared of protesters," he said.
Anaheim Police Sgt. Bob Dunn told CNN's "Newsroom" that once the protest was broken up, "the crowds kind of moved around, sometimes fighting between each other, breaking windows and lighting fires and trash cans."
It was Saturday afternoon's fatal shooting of Diaz, whom police described as a gang member, that sparked the protests, CNN affiliate KCAL reported. Cell phone video taken at the scene and posted to YouTube showed residents confronting police officers as they ordered bystanders to back away from the man lying face down on a lawn before they cordoned off the area with yellow police tape.
Dozens of people surrounded the police officers; some threw objects at them and rolled a burning trash bin in their direction, according to CNN affiliate KTLA. Police responded with rubber bullets and pepper spray. One demonstrator showed the television news station bruises she said she got from rubber bullets fired at the crowd.
At one point, police lost control of a dog that attacked and bit at least one person. Welter apologized for the dog attack and said the city will cover the cost of treatment.
Sunday, protesters jammed the Anaheim Police Department to complain about shootings involving police officers. But later the same night -- in a separate incident -- police shot and killed a second man, whom they also considered a gang member, when he allegedly fired at police, CNN affiliate KABC reported.
Monday, hundreds held a vigil for Diaz, chanting in Spanish, according to KTLA.
The family cites witnesses who say Diaz was talking with two friends around 4 p.m. when a police car drove up with lights on "and an intent to confront the young men." Diaz responded "instinctively when he saw people chasing him and began to run," they say in the suit.
"There is a racial and economic component to this shooting," said Dana Douglas, an attorney for the family. "Police don't roust white kids in affluent neighborhoods who are just having a conversation. And those kids have no reason to fear police. But young men with brown skin in poor neighborhoods do. They are targeted by police, and something as simple as a friendly conversation is deemed 'suspicious activity' by police."
Dunn said Wednesday the Diaz shooting took place when officers in the "high-crime gang neighborhood" attempted to stop three men, who ran off.
"It was during that foot pursuit that the officer-involved shooting occurred," he said. "The circumstances surrounding that shooting are under investigation by the district's attorney."
Police say Diaz was unarmed but throwing unknown objects while running from police, KABC and KCAL reported, but the family called those comments "flat-out fabrications."
The suit says Diaz committed no crime and was not under the influence of alcohol or drugs when he was shot.
Police in Anaheim were involved in six shootings in 2012, all but one of which were fatal, according to KTLA.

You would think major media outlets might have someone focused on philanthropy, a reporter who can read 990s and spot new trends. Instead, The New York Times eliminated the philanthropy beat, one of the last daily newspapers to employ a full-time reporter to cover national nonprofits, according to a piece in the Chronicle of Philanthrophy.
We're interested in this new developement with philanthropy and religion sometimes going hand in hand, since religious organizations fill a decent chunk of the philanthropic landscape. As editors have promised in the past with the religion beat, the paper promises to cover philanthropy more across the board.
Stephanie Yera, a spokeswoman for the New York Times Company, said the newspaper would still cover philanthropy-related stories "across news desks."
For example, she noted that this week Eric Lichtblau wrote an article about a lawsuit over control of the Cato Institute that appeared on the newspaper's front page. She also noted in an e-mail that "our culture and education desks are regularly churning out stories about philanthropy and nonprofits."
Sure, newspapers have to prioritize its time and attention, but it seems strange to have entire desks devoted to politics and business and not one person covering philanthropy, demonstrating media outlet's priorities, what they deem "important." Of course, a culture or education story could include some sort of philanthropy element, but if a reporter isn't focused on it, he or she probably won't know how to spot something unusual. It seems odd that the beat wouldn't be mentioned as naturally part of politics, since there seem to be so many angles about government partnerships and funding of religious charities (or controversies that lead to a split).
Online sites could pick up the slack, right? The report suggests that there's a mixed bag when it comes to whether it's fully replaced the previous print beats.
On the one hand, news Web sites, like the Huffington Post's Impact page and The Washington Post's On Giving section, offer more chances for charity leaders to share their perspectives. But hard news and journalism about the field, at least at the national level, seem to be dwindling along with newspaper budgets. ... The Post has two reporters who cover local nonprofits on a part-time basis for its Capital Business section.
Reading the piece led me to some clicking around at the Chronicle of Philanthrophy's website, where I uncovered this potentially helpful blog "Rising Tithe" on religion and giving. A quick scan of the calendar, though, shows that it only survived a few months last summer. What a bummer. The religion page offers a decent starting point for archives, but it's pretty much dead. Let us know if you know of other sources for religion and philanthropy news.
Back to The Times and whether its move signifies something larger: Is the philanthropy beat gone from general outlets? What are you seeing at your local outlets?

The Giving Field
Did you ever hear of a project that just made you feel happy? Recently, I was introduced to the Giving Field garden project. What a wonderful testimony to the volunteer efforts of our community once again!
The one-acre piece of land the garden is near St. Anne's Catholic Church on 11th Street. Before ground breaking in April 2012, the land was vacant for many years, according to one of the founding volunteers, Sharon Begnaud. Begnaud says, "Early in 2012, Monsignor William Manger, pastor for St. Anne church, had the idea of making a garden on the property. Pastoral Council member Mary Mahlie took the project on, and she asked me to help her develop the idea. We wanted to make a garden with real community impact." Both Begnaud and Mahlie had spent time at area soup kitchens cooking for the hungry and realized that this garden would be a perfect way to get fresh fruits and vegetables to these people who desperately need them.
So this donation garden was born. A donation garden is different from a community garden in that the raised beds are sponsored by members of the community, but groups of people come together to plant and maintain the entire garden, and the harvest is given to the area soup kitchens to feed the hungry. Begnaud added, "Our volunteer base is made up of students coming to the garden to learn. It also includes groups from the area correctional and probation programs, Girl Scout troops, Master Gardeners, families looking for outdoor activities and individuals who want to turn their black thumbs to green. We received our first two beehives this past Sunday from the Magnolia Garden Club, a group making us all aware that we need to build our bee population."
The first 33 raised beds were built and 21 trees were planted Oct. 13, 2012. More than 200 people from the community came out to work together to bring this vision to life. People from all over and with many backgrounds got dirty that day to accomplish the task at hand. The day began with a blessing from Monsignor Manger and ended with a beautiful Hebrew scripture by Rabbi Joshua Taub. Begnaud feels that "it was a wonderful example of how we are striving to make this project non-denominational as the hungry have no one face, race or religion. We can all work together to accomplish the mission." You too can come and help in the garden project. Call (409) 832-9963 and ask for Mahlie or Begnaud if you need additional information.
Join Begnaud and others March 9 at The Giving Field behind Bando's from 9 a.m. – 4 p.m. for a wonderful day of workshops, at a cost of $10 for the full day. Profits go to The Giving Field. Look forward to hearing Katharine Carmichael speak about feeding your family from your backyard garden. Mahlie will tell us how to grow delicious organic tomatoes. Joseph Johnson, director of horticulture at Shangri-La in Orange, will help us learn how to landscape with edibles. John Ferguson of Nature's Way Resources in Houston will host It's All In The Soil … and Compost. Mark Bowen of Nature's Way will focus on Let Nature Help You: The Secrets of Beneficial Plants. Mike Serant of Houston will speak to Organic Fertilizers: Easy Solutions for a Healthy Garden.
Some readers may be familiar with the renowned Alice Waters of Berkley, Calif., and her Chez Panisse Restaurant. She is credited with beginning the current organic and local food movement that we enjoy today when she opened Chez Panisse back in the '70s. Our own Giving Field has used Waters' nationally recognized project Edible Schoolyard as a template for some of the educational components of the garden. The Edible Schoolyard website featured this wonderful local Giving Field project just last month!

The NFL has announced that Nike will be taking over the league's uniform contract, beginning in 2012. Although Nike has taken some well-deserved heat for its designs, including its previous brief foray in the NFL, this has the potential to be spectacularly good news for the Packers.
Nike previously supplied the Packers' uniforms from 1997 through 2001, taking over the contract from Starter, which had been supplying the Green and Gold since 1992. The Nike era was relatively brief, coming to an end when the NFL eliminated individual team contracts and granted Reebok the first league-wide agreement starting with the 2001 season. The most notable change during the Nike era was the reduction of sleeve stripes from five to three, to fit the cap sleeves of the modern jersey cut:
So Nike is now back in the locker room, and we can hope that the Packers' sleeve stripes will be on their agenda once again.
In particular, I'm hopeful that this new manufacturing contract may result in the restoration of Lombardi's original design. Nike, after all, was responsible for Oregon State's throwback uniforms, which managed to blend 60s design and 21st Century uniform manufacturing:
I've been advocating a similar move for years. With Nike making the uniforms, the odds of it happening just went up.

What with their tattoos and the time put into working out and building huge arms, why would they want to start covering them? The modern NFL jersey is almost more like an NBA jersey when you see them alone without the pads. Like tank tops. So I don't see many players agreeing or liking this.

An old line says every dog has its day. If so, then Webster, the Hospice Care of South Carolina in Lancaster office therapy dog, received his just due.
The 10 ½-year-old Labrador/husky mix, nicknamed "Webbie," died of kidney failure in September.
For the better part of his life, Webster brought endless joy to hospice patients. Joan Long, the dog's owner, took Webster along on visits to help brighten the final days of countless hospice patients.

Russell McClarnon, 49, of 20 Margaret St., Cranston was charged with stealing $118.52 worth of merchandise from the Walmart on Post Road on Dec. 22. He was later released with a summons.
Luis Fuentes, 47, of 904 Washington St., Central Falls, was charged with shoplifting 24 bars of soap and a number of electronic devices worth $307.68 from the Walmart on Post Road on Dec. 27. Det. Shaun Turcotte said he also ran Fuentes through Interpol records but learned through an interpreter what his identity was and that he was a U.S. citizen. He was later released with a summons.
Robert J. Dorazio, 32, of 42 Circledale Dr., Cumberland, was charged with felony shoplifting at the Sears store in Rhode Island Mall on Dec. 30. Loss prevention told police they recovered six bottles of designer cologne worth $381 from Dorazio, who was charged as a habitual offender.
A Providence man was charged with shoplifting after loss prevention at the Walmart at Rhode Island Mall on Bald Hill Road offered police video of the man removing the packaging from several BB guns and concealing the guns in his clothes before walking out of the store without paying for them. Darian A. Pamplin, 24, of 497 Broadway, Providence, was later released with a summons.
Officer Aaron Kay reported he was dispatched to Nausauket for a report of illegal dumping. A witness said she found some trash by the side of the road that contained some paperwork for a nearby resident in the trash but did not want to press charges and asked only that the person be reminded of ordinances regarding littering and dumping. He said he would look into it himself and ran a check on the name. It turned out there was an outstanding bench warrant for failure to appear for Brianna N. Hassell, 19, of 344 Nausauket Rd., for failure to appear for a payment review. He said he later found Hassell and warned her about littering and then arrested her on the warrant. He said he found a small bag of marijuana in Hassell's jacket pocket and she was additionally charged with possession.
Officer Damian Andrews reported he was dispatched to the LaQuinta Inn on Jefferson Boulevard around 3:45 a.m. on Jan. 1 for a hysterical woman in the lobby. Andrews said the woman was screaming and saying she just wanted to get her belongings and leave and accused the clerk of assaulting her. He said the clerk told him he started getting complaints about a woman banging on guest room doors, demanding they let her in. He said he asked her what room she was in, but she refused to tell him and refused to give him her name. He said she followed him back to the lobby, screaming all the way, and then she shoved him when he said he was calling the police, and then shoved another person and grabbed the phone behind the desk and then threw a vase across the lobby. Witnesses corroborated what the clerk said and added that she told them she would get him in trouble if he didn't give her what she wanted, although what she wanted was never made clear. He said that Nancy Alvarez, 20, of 27 Wisdom Ave., Providence was arrested for disorderly conduct and vandalism and later released with a summons.
Officer John Larivee reported he was on Route 95 South around 1:35 a.m. on Dec. 22 when he found two vehicles on the shoulder of the road near the Route 4 split that had been in an accident. He said he activated his lights and pulled in behind them. He said one of the drivers approached him and said "they just didn't see each other changing lanes" and it was no one's fault. Larivee said he noticed the extremely strong odor of cologne about the driver. He said he spoke with the other driver who was "visibly shaking" after the accident who told him that nobody was changing lanes. He said he was traveling straight south on 95 when he was suddenly rear-ended. Larivee said it looked like there was no sideswiping involved and the rear of the car in front was damaged. He said he began to notice that the first driver he spoke to seemed to be under the influence but claimed he had not been drinking. He said he was swaying on his feet and failed a field sobriety test. He said a Rhode Island State Trooper arrived who had a portable breath tester and offered it to the driver, who refused it. David J. Gamelin, 26, of 50 Wisteria Dr., Coventry, was arrested and charged with DUI and refusal later released to a sober adult.
Officer John Curley reported he clocked a car at 54 miles per hour on Post Road around 8 p.m. on Dec. 31. He said he pulled the car over at Walmart and approached the driver. He said the driver smelled of alcohol and looked drunk. He said he also saw what appeared to be a small bottle of alcohol protruding from his pocket that was identified as a container of Evans Tennessee whiskey. He said he gave the driver a field sobriety test but had to stop it when he felt the driver would fall and hurt himself. Due to his training and experience, Curley concluded that the driver was impaired and unfit to drive. Justin Belmore, 26, of 32 Rosegarden St., Warwick, was taken to headquarters, where he refused to take a breath test. He was charged with DUI, refusal, driving on a suspended license and speeding. He was later released to a sober adult.
Det. Brenton Groeneveld reported he was in an unmarked car around 9:20 p.m. on Dec. 29 when a pickup truck came right up behind him on Buttonwoods Avenue at a high rate of speed. He said the truck had about two feet between its bumper and the police car. He said he pulled to the right and the pickup barely missed him when it passed him with its engine revving before it sped away. Groeneveld said he caught up with the truck at a red light and then he pulled it over after it sped away from the green light. He said the driver was told he was driving too aggressively and then he noticed the strong smell of alcohol in the truck. He said the driver appeared to be under the influence and was asked out of the truck for a field sobriety test. He said the man decisively failed the field sobriety test and was arrested on suspicion of drunk driving. Groeneveld had learned that there was a hold without bail for failure to appear warrant on a DUI charged out of the Lincoln Barracks of the Rhode Island State Police. Robert Eugene Proctor, 42, of 311 Capron Farm Dr., Warwick, was charged with DUI, refusal, driving on a suspended license and then held for arraignment.
Officer Manuel Pacheco reported he pulled a car over in Apponaug for driving erratically on West Shore Road around 5:15 p.m. on Dec. 30. He said the driver appeared to be drunk and smelled of alcohol. He said Tracy L. Sanville, 32, of 321 Church St., Warwick, failed a field sobriety test and refused a chemical test after they took her right to Kent Hospital. She was charged with DUI and refusal and left in the care of the staff.
Officer John Curley reported he was on a special traffic detail when he clocked a Toyota pickup at 57 miles per hour on Greenwich Avenue around 11:35 p.m. on Dec. 19. He said he immediately noticed that the driver seemed impaired and smelled strongly of alcohol. He said he gave the man a field sobriety test and determined that he was impaired and unfit to operate a motor vehicle. He was taken to headquarters, where he blew a .165 and a .167 blood alcohol on the breath test. Ronald W. Nasser, 44, of 4 Hudson Lane, Warwick, was charged with DUI and speeding and later released to a sober adult.

Agency History
The Probate Court was established with the creation of Weber County in 1852. Federal law gave territorial probate courts the power to deal with matters of estates of deceased persons and the guardianship of the estates of minors and the incompetent. In 1852, the Territorial Legislature also gave the Probate Court jurisdiction over civil, criminal, and chancery matters. (Laws of Utah, 1852, Chapter 42, sections 23-33). In 1896, with statehood, the Probate Court was abolished.
Beginning in 1852, the Probate Court handled estate, guardianship, civil, criminal, and chancery matters. The Probate Court could also act as an appellant court to the Justice of the Peace Courts in the County. In 1874, the federal Poland Act revoked the jurisdiction of the Probate Court over all but divorce and probate cases. In 1887, the federal Edmunds-Tucker act revoked Probate Court jurisdiction in divorce cases. Estate cases handled by the Court included probate and guardianship matters. These included adoptions after the legislature first made provisions for adoption as a legal process in 1884. Civil cases included primarily divorce, debt, replevin, damages, delinquent tax collections, contract and property disputes, evictions. Criminal cases included murder, larceny, rape, robbery, assault, burglary, and contempt of court charges, as well as others. The Court also recorded incorporations and disincorporations. Land title claims and hearings were handled by the Probate Court under a process established by the Legislature in 1869.
The Probate Court was administered by the Probate Judge who was elected by the Territorial Legislature and commissioned by the Governor until 1874 when the judge was publicly elected to a two year term. In the case of a vacancy, the governor could appoint a judge until the legislature met and elected someone. In 1888, the federal Edmunds-Tucker Act made the office subject to appointment by the President of the United States.
The Probate Court consisted of the Probate Judge and the Clerk of the Probate Court. Prior to 1880, the clerk was appointed by the Probate Judge, but in 1880 the County Clerk was made an elected position with a two-year term. The Probate Court could act as an appellant court to the Justice of the Peace Courts within the county, and all Probate Court proceedings could be appealed to the District Court.

About Me

- Biography
- Originally from Termina, I had four friends, the giants. One day, they announced they would be leaving Clock Town, 100 steps in each compass direction (but they're giants so to a little imp like me, it's a few miles*and were the people to need help, to just yell a plea for help; feeling betrayed, I caused chaos through Termina. The giants, guardians of Termina, came and told me that were I to continue they would tear me apart, so I fled to the land of Hyrule in the Lost Woods. A fairy boy, came and taught me Saria's Song one day, and I bought his Skull Mask, from this point on, my name was Skull Kid. I returned to Termina, hoping to create chaos once more to Termina in revenge. I had seen a salesman, a mask salesman to be specific, I jumped him and took a mask of his, the Majora's Mask, it was rumored to be of great strength and used for hexing, too strong for the giants to kill me now. However, I feel... different, sudden urges to cause evil, rather than my mischievous pranks, I found a boy, with a similar scent to the fairy boy I'd met a while back in the Lost Woods. I stole his horse, and turned him into a Deku. The urge continued though, and I brought the moon from it's rest to destroy Termina. I need help. I don't know who I am, somebody... please... help me.

Jeff's post on his computational topology class (and the wonderful class outline), prompted me to write about something that I've tried to explain to people before.
Computational topology is arguably the hottest thing in SoCG-land right now, and has been so for a number of years (for curious folk, the "other" hot topic is high dimensional approximate geometry). But if you ask different people, you'll get different answers to the question "what is computational topology ?". I've even had to explain to local students why my computational geometry class is different from the computational topology class being offered. So here goes:
CT I: Using topological ideas to understand the 'shape' of data
This is the version of CT that has taken up the largest fraction of CT mindshare in the SoCG land. Dating back to work by Edelsbrunner and Mucke on alpha-shapes, the field now encompasses a range of ideas for extracting topological structure from data. New topological constructs that have come from this area include various notions of persistence, as well as related work on reconstruction, data smoothing, and visualization.
Afra Zomorodian's thesis (now a book) is a nice introduction to these concepts for a CS audience. Herbert Edelsbrunner is coming out with a book on this topic very soon (Jan 16, 2010! Mark your amazons!), and Valerio Pascucci teaches a class on computational topology at the U.
CT II: Asking computational questions about fundamental topological objects and concepts.
This is closest to the 'Computational X' flavor of work, where a computational perspective is brought to the study of X. There are many interesting problems here, and they have a nice discrete flavor that makes them 'friendly' for theoryCS folk. For example, computing the Betti numbers of a simplicial complex efficiently, or finding homotopy equivalent paths on a surface, or lots of work on graphs on surfaces.
I don't think there's a single book on this topic. JeffE has put together a fantastic course outline (with reading material), and there's also a great book on graphs on surfaces by Mohar and Thomasson. It's worth noting that some of the deeper tools in the Robertson-Seymour graph minor results take us into graphs-on-surfaces-of-large-genus land.
CT III: Using topological ideas in the heart of complexity theory.
Almost no one I know uses 'computational topology' in this sense, and there isn't a coherent and connected body of work to talk about as such. But there are some fascinating results at the core of complexity theory that rely on topological constructions. There's the algebraic complexity work of Yao/Steele/Ben-Or and others, showing that lower bounds for algebraic complexity of certain problems can be related to the sum of Betti numbers of associated surfaces. There's the Kahn-Saks-Sturtevant (and Chakrabarti-Khot-Shi) work on evasiveness of graph properties, and then the work (that I don't quite understand) on topology in distributed computing (that got Herlihy, Saks, Shavit and Zahoroglou the Godel Prize)
This is one of the reasons I think a course in topology (of some flavor, whether it be combinatorial, algebraic or point-set) should be required mathematical background for all theoryCS students.

Lajos Nagy
Born: April 2, 1898
Zagyvapalfalva, Hungary
The Nagys were one of several Jewish families in Zagyvapalfalva, a town 45 miles from Budapest. They owned a general store that served the many coal miners in the mountain valley town. As a young man, Lajos served with the Hungarian army in World War I. He then studied in Budapest to be a diplomat, but a 1920 law restricting the number of Jews in certain professions kept him from pursuing his career.
1933-39: My father has passed away and I have taken over the general store in Zagypalfalva with my bride, Kato. This last antisemitic prime minister pushed through a law prohibiting Jews from selling basic items like sugar, tobacco and liquor, and our business slacked off drastically. Sometimes at night, hooligans bang on the windows of our home, chanting, "Jews, go away!" One is the son of our good friend, the town notary.
1940-44: Two years ago the situation in Zagyvapalfalva got so bad that we had to rent out our store and house and move to Kato's family home outside Budapest. While we were there Kato gave birth to Sandor Michael. Our Sanyika was just 3 months old when the Germans invaded Hungary. It was only a few weeks later that I received orders--along with hundreds of other men aged 18 to 48--to report for labor service. I've been put to work outside Budapest laying new roads and clearing the rubble caused by Allied air raids.
That October, Lajos was killed by an Allied bomb. His wife and baby were deported to Auschwitz. Sandor was gassed on arrival. Kato was chosen for forced labor and survived the war.

NBN Co has notched up another win for its fixed wireless towers in Tasmania, with a development application for a tower in Huon Valley given the go-ahead following an appeal.
Resident Jody Watkins was appealing the construction of a fixed wireless tower in the Huon Valley area in Tasmania on the grounds that inadequate notice was given to residents for the development application.
However, the Resource Management and Planning Appeal Tribunal (RMPAT) found Watkins did not have a right to appeal as she did not lodge her appeal within the specified timeframe.
Watkins wrote several letters to the Huon Valley council about the tower's construction. However, the first letter was received 24 September, 2012, which was six days after the allowable period for "representation" (representation must be made within 14 days prior to a permit being granted).
Under the Land Use Planning and Approvals Act 1993 (No. 70 of 1993), representation includes "a written statement of facts or reasons in support of or in opposition to the scheme, amendment, application or project".
Another two letters were received by the council 7 October and 15 October.
Failing to lodge an appeal within the specified period meant Watkins had "failed to make a valid representation" around the case.
"Finally, it is quite irrelevant how the document was described by the Applicant for the permit. The circumstances then are as a matter of fact no representation was made by Ms Watkins. She has no right of appeal under Section 61(5) of the Land Use Act. Her appeal is invalid and it is dismissed," the RMPAT said.
The tower at Garden Island Creek will provide NBN fixed wireless coverage to Garden Island Creek and serve as an 'anchor point' for other NBN wireless facilities in the wider Hobart area.
The RMPAT had earlier issued five directions for the case to try and resolve the issue, with Huon Valley Council required to submit an evidentiary form which showed its decision making process in approving the tower.
The win at Garden Island Creek comes on the back of another NBN Co win at Scottsdale, Tasmania, in November last year, with NBN Co receiving planning approval for a fixed wireless tower following the initial rejection of the tower by Dorset Council.
An agreement was reached between NBN Co and Dorset Council over the construction of the facility, with a decision handed down by the RMPAT giving the go-ahead for the facility, comprising a 35m monopole, antennas, an outdoor cabinet (with another to be built in the future) and ancillary equipment.

Your photo will not fit every print size perfectly.
Most digital cameras take photos that are 4x6 or 4x5.3 in dimension but SmugMug sells tons of different print sizes. That means when you order a print, you need to make sure the good stuff makes it in. No worries, we'll make this easy for you.
Does my photo fit?
In the shopping cart, you'll see crop lines if your photo isn't a perfect fit.
This photo is 4x6 in dimension, but I chose an 8x10 print so it's cropping the subject's head slightly.
Aack! Move those crop lines...
Option 1: Click the adjust button and you'll be able to drag the crop lines to get it right.
But... That won't work for my photo.
In some cases, no shifting of crop lines makes your photo fit on some paper sizes. Group shots are notorious for not fitting 8x10s:
To get the whole family in the photo, do one of the following:
Option 2: Choose None for no cropping. It adds two white borders to the print, but none of the photo is lost. You can trim the print when you get it, or cover the borders with a mat.
Option 3: Choose a different print size. In this case, an 8x12 will be a perfect fit.

Jason Aldean Has Acting Aspirations
With Miranda Lambert and Taylor Swift taking roles on the small screen and in films, respectively, it's no surprise that another country singer might get in on the fun. Jason Aldean has had his interest in acting aroused. But he will look before he leaps and he will not shoot first and think later. In fact, he would be open to easing into acting to make sure he likes it. It has to be the right fit and Aldean will only take a role judiciously, not impulsively. He's well within his rights to do just that.
"Yeah, I would definitely be into that, we have had a couple of things kinda come our way," the 'Tattoos on This Town' singer told Dan Van of Albright and O'Malley about transitioning to acting. "We had a movie script that came last year, a western style kind of thing that Ed Harris was slated to play in so we've had a couple of things like that to have come along." A western-style film certainly sounds like it's right up Aldean's alley, and Ed Harris has history in the country world, having played Patsy Cline's husband in 'Sweet Dreams.' Aldean could very well be on the right path, even if he is only in the idea stages.
Aldean, who recently said he wants nothing to do with reality talent shows, further expressed his feelings toward acting, saying, "For me acting is going to be something I would like to kinda try like a small part just to see if it's something I would like to be interested in because it's like anything. First of all, I might suck at it and second of all, I may realize it's something I am not interested in."
Jason Aldean is playing his cards right when it comes to making a possible leap into acting. Plenty of his fellow country stars have done it and it could be a logical next step for the superstar.

Have you been out all night hangin' out with Cooter? I hope to God that's not his birth name. Perhaps it is something more dignified like Charles, Rutherford, or Winston.
I can tell you've been up to something devious. Have you been vamp napping for The King of Mississippi? Just look at those dark circles under your eyes. Sit down, have some coffee, and have a plate of Cooter's Hash.
It's not that complicated. It's just chopped up baked potatoes that are fried with onions, seitan, and topped with Alcide's Dilly of a Comeback Sauce. Get some toast and juice to go with your hash and coffee--you're on your way to recovering from your shenanigans at Lou Pine's Bar.
Oh, and don't worry about that branding on your shoulder. I'm sure it is some weird initiation thing. It's probably a reminder to tell all of your friends in the USA about my 1 million US hit goal for MOFO.

NEW YORK (Reuters) - U.S. stocks recovered from sharp losses to end only slightly lower on Thursday after the U.S. House of Representative said it would come back to work this weekend in a last-ditch effort to avoid the "fiscal cliff," while the yen hit a two-year low on expectations of bold monetary stimulus in Japan.
It was a fourth straight session of losses for U.S. stocks, while world stocks ended slightly higher.
Wall Street stocks tumbled in morning trade after Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid, the top Senate Democrat, said the United States may be poised to go off the "fiscal cliff." But in late trading, the House of Representatives said it set a work session for Sunday night ahead of the December 31 deadline for reaching a deal, paring losses that earlier that earlier had driven all three major stock indexes down about 1 percent.
Economists warn that the $600 billion in higher taxes and spending cuts set to kick in from January could push the world's largest economy into recession, dragging other countries with it.
"There's no conviction in the move or the overall market, based on the across-the-board reduction we've seen in volume ... but there will be continued weakness until there's sustained positive direction coming from our leaders," said Joseph Cangemi, managing director at ConvergEx Group, in New York.
The House of Representatives may stay in session until January 2, the final day of the current Congress, according to a Twitter message from House Majority Leader Eric Cantor.
That is the day that another component of the "fiscal cliff" - $109 billion in automatic spending cuts to military and domestic programs - is set to start.
The Dow Jones industrial average .DJI dipped 18.28 points, or 0.14 percent, to end at 13,096.31. The Standard & Poor's 500 Index .SPX was down 1.74 points, or 0.12 percent, at 1,418.09. The Nasdaq Composite Index .IXIC was down 4.25 points, or 0.14 percent, at 2,985.91.
Shares of U.S. retailers fell for a second day following the Christmas holiday. The Morgan Stanley retail index .MVR was down 0.2 percent.
The MSCI global index .MIWD00000PUS was last up 0.1 percent, while European shares .FTEU3 ended down 0.01 percent.
President Barack Obama returned to Washington on Thursday, cutting short his holiday to try to get a budget deal with Republican lawmakers.
The dollar rose to 86.15 yen on Reuters data, its highest since mid-August 2010. It was last up 0.5 percent at 86.02 yen.
The dollar has risen 12 percent against the yen in 2012, on track for its biggest annual gain since 2005. Yen selling has accelerated in the past two months on expectations that Shinzo Abe would be elected prime minister and would pursue policies to weaken the Japanese currency.
The Liberal Democratic Party won the elections on December 16, making Abe the prime minister. Since then, he has kept up pressure on the Bank of Japan to attack deflation and weaken the yen.
"If everyone is simply going to take Mr. Abe at his word, then we can go a lot further before this move is done," said Kit Juckes, strategist at Societe Generale in London.
The euro rose 0.2 percent to $1.3242.
Prices on longer-dated U.S. Treasuries were higher after Reid's fiscal cliff comments and after the Conference Board, an industry group, reported a bigger-than-expected drop in American consumer confidence in December.
Benchmark 10-year Treasuries prices were 4/32 higher in price, yielding 1.7355 percent.
Brent crude futures ended down slightly as the unresolved U.S. budget talks left open the possibility that mandated tax hikes and spending cuts could be enacted, which could push the United States, the world's top oil-consumer, into recession.
Brent February crude fell 27 cents, or 0.24 percent, to settle at $110.80 a barrel. U.S. February crude slipped 11 cents, or 0.12 percent, to settle at $90.87.
In the precious metals market, gold prices rose for a fourth straight day for their longest winning stretch in nearly two months. But the gains were small for a market seen as a key hedge to the U.S. fiscal crisis.
Gold's February futures contract on COMEX, the most active on the New York exchange, settled at $1,663.70 an ounce, up $3, or 0.2 percent on the day. Over the past week, it has gained $17.80, or just over 1 percent, after hitting a four-month low of $1,645.90 on December 20.

Can You Guess the Celebrity Cleavage?
Today's celebrity cleavage belongs to a 26 year old singer/songwriter born and raised in Memphis, Tennessee.
She earned a musical scholarship to attend Florida A&M University, but eventually switched her major to Biology, and even toyed with becoming a nurse. It has been said that although she never quit singing, she did not want to major in music.
After she graduated college, she decided to make music her primary focus – touring in Asia for several months as a singer with a Memphis orchestra. Upon returning to Memphis, she took an office job, and then sales job after that, where she didn't do much but sit around in a cubicle all day and sing.
Realizing the 9-to-5 office life was not for her, she created a MySpace page and within a week caught the attention of a production company in Atlanta, Georgia.
Seeing an opportunity for her big break, she moved to Atlanta, but did not secure a record deal until two years later.

Gumbo Filé is supposed to add flavor and substance. We'll see. I'm adding to the glut of already superfluous information and opinion on the worldwide web. What will make this blog distinct from all the other self-important know-it-alls out there? Nothing, really, except that this will be the only place on the worldwide web where you can find all GumboFilé all the time. You can ignore me, bookmark me, or add me to your list of blocked sites. I'll be right here.
