Doc Savage Audiobook
White Eyes
Written by Will Murray, Based on a Concept by Lester Dent
e was a role model during the Great Depression and World War II and a pop icon for the millions who thrilled to his paperback exploits from the 1960s thru the 1980s. Now Doc Savage, the legendary Man of Bronze, comes to vivid life in
"White Eyes"
, the new and soon to be released audiobook adventure from RadioArchives.com.
In "White Eyes", a new supercriminal emerges from the underworld. Dressed all in white, his face masked, eyes blank as a blind man's, he calls himself White Eyes. Who is he? What are his goals? All of Manhattan reels under the onslaught of the Blind Death, a scourge so terrible that innocent people are struck dead, their eyes turning white as hardboiled eggs. From his skyscraper headquarters high above the streets of New York City to the sugarcane fields of Cuba, Doc Savage races to crush gangland's latest uncrowned king!
Written by Will Murray and produced and directed by Roger Rittner - the same team that created "Python Isle" and "The Adventures of Doc Savage" audio collections also available from RadioArchives.com, White Eyes
dramatic narration by Richard Epcar, cover art by Joe DeVito, and two exclusive audio interviews with Will Murray on the continuing history of Doc Savage and the original Lester Dent manuscript that led to the writing of this exciting edge-of-your-seat adventure.
This Doc Savage thriller is the second in a new line of pulp fiction audiobooks from RadioArchives.com; upcoming releases will feature the classic adventures of The Spider, Secret Agent X, and more of Will Murrays exciting Doc Savage adventures.
The Secret of White Eyes
Written by Will Murray
My second published Doc Savage novel was created in a maelstrom of panicky creativity. When Bantam Books asked me to continue the Doc Savage series after they had exhausted the original run of vintage tales, I had "Python Isle" and a working draft of "The Frightened Fish" on the shelf, ready to go. My editor, however, wanted to contract for three new Docs. That I didn't see coming.
What to do? Then I remembered that Lester Dent had started a version of the classic 1934 Doc adventure "The Annihilist" that he had abandoned for reasons unclear. Lester's widow, Norma, kindly gave me permission to transmute those yellowing pages into gold. I dug out my photocopies of that unfinished manuscript. It had a great opening chapter. Very different characters populated it than had the finished tale. There were places in the later chapters where the two versions converged, but I could delete that material, change some characters and situations, and create a fresh new tale.
I took a pen to those pages, sketching in preliminary alternations and renaming some characters. Fortunately for me, when Lester restarted this story, he dropped the female lead, private detective Dana O'Fall, and transformed the chief villain from a master criminal parading around in front of the reader to an unknown mystery man operating behind the scenes. Other characters were also discarded, leaving me free to keep these abandoned dramatic personae. In the places where some characters shared names, I lucked out. Lester's original outline provided alternates, such as C. Perley Swain. For others, I grabbed them from different unpublished Dent sources. (Had I known twenty years ago that "White Eyes" would be recorded as an audiobook, I might have rethought naming one player Sanchez y. Annuncio de Calabero!)
I struggled for a long time with substituting the murder method both versions shared, finally arriving at something that allowed me to change as little as possible while preserving a clear distinction between both novels. What if the bad guy possessed the power to mysteriously fry the eyeballs of his victims like egg whites on a skillet? Thus was created the grisly Blind Death. That arresting visual gave me the name of my master villain and the title of my new novel: "White Eyes". From that, I extrapolated a supecriminal who dressed all in white, his true features concealed by a porcelain-pale mask in which the blank artificial eyes were the hallmark of the horrific fate he inflicted upon his hapless victims.
And so I began to write in earnest. Something magical seems to transpire when I begin retyping Lester Dent's words. I seem to click into another area of consciousness and continue writing like him when the original material runs out. It happened here so strongly that when I finished "White Eyes" and went on to my next novel, an entry in the Destroyer series, I had a hard time not writing like Lester Dent. In fact, it was painful to switch. I wanted to keep on with Doc Savage.
Writers don't often single out novels they wrote as their favorites. I will break that rule here. Of the Doc Savage novels to come out of my efforts, "White Eyes" has been my favorite. It was the first time I worked with vintage Lester Dent chapters and they really inspired me. In the twenty years since its first publication, many Doc fans have singled it out as one of the best Doc Savage novels Lester and I co-produced - and quite a few have flattered me by ranking it among the top Doc exploits ever written. I owe it all to the 55 page start Lester left me.
I might add parenthetically that "The Annihilist" is one of my favorite original Doc Savage exploits. It is consistently ranked high by fans of all generations and may be one of the most gripping entries of all the 182 original novels. So I had a wonderful foundation from which to work.
I had tremendous fun stepping into Lester Dent's (or should I say Kenneth Robeson's?) boots in writing "White Eyes". It was my first exploration of the New York of the Man of Bronze. His skyscraper headquarters and Hidalgo Trading Company warehouse with their gadgets and advanced equipment are among the best toys in pulp fiction. I added something new to the bronze legend when I explained how Doc Savage handled all those secret shipments of Mayan gold which funded his global operation during a period when private ownership of gold ingots was illegal in the U. S. And I populated it with the same wonderfully bizarre characters that make Doc Savage such a hoot to read. Although longer than the Doc novels of 1935, the year in which "White Eyes" is set, like all honest pulp stories, it rockets along, piling up exciting incidents and cold corpses faster than the reader can read - or, in this case, listen along.
I'll tell you a secret about the character named Harmon Cash. It was one of Lester Dent's pseudonyms. And like Cash, Dent suffered from an eye affliction that made one eye look in a different direction than the other. That's right, I made the original Kenneth Robeson a major player in a Doc Savage novel!
From the first frightening fatality in Manhattan's Tombs prison, through the escalating action wherein a united Underworld assaults Doc Savage's impregnable skyscraper headquarters, to the blazing climax in the sugar cane fields of pre-Castro Cuba, "White Eyes" is roller coaster ride of pulp-pounding action.
For this second Doc Savage audiobook, Michael McConnohie is taking a well-deserved break after doing such a great job with "Python Isle" - but never fear. He'll be back for our third release, "The Jade Ogre". Here, in "White Eyes", the multi-talented Richard Epcar takes the microphone. Producer-director Roger Rittner believed his skills and delivery fit the story perfectly. And I can't tell you how relived Michael McConnohie was not to have to pronounce, much less voice, Sanchez y. Annuncio de Calabero!
As I write these words, Roger Rittner is still editing Richard's dramatic reading of "White Eyes." I've only listened to chapter one. His introduction of the Man of Bronze - or perhaps I should say
introduction - thrilled me as much as any Doc opening I ever read. And why not? He was bringing to life Lester Dent's words, not mine. I'm confident Richard will do the story justice. I'm really proud of this collaboration.

99 out of 100 for White Eyes
July 30, 2011
Reviewer: Michael Spitzer from Southwest Ranches, FL United States
Like many Doc fans, I had read this Will Murray adventure back in the 90s
I just ordered the CD collection and downloaded the MP3 to listen to while at the gym.
One of Will's best Doc stories.
Why do I give it 99/100 ?
I had one small gripe .... the character Sanchez y. Annuncio de Calabero was always referred to by his full name which got very repetitive after awhile.

The Mississippi State softball team wants to win the late innings.
That's exactly what they did Saturday night.
The Bulldogs (3-1) beat Georgia State 9-1 in five innings on the third day of Bulldog Kickoff Classic.
MSU entered the fifth inning with a 3-1 lead after the Panther's MeQuilia Franklin stole home on a double steal.
The Bulldogs entered the bottom of the fifth with an offensive mindset. Senior outfielder Jessica Cooley took an 0-1 pitch out of the park for her third career grand slam to give MSU a 7-1 lead with no outs.
"We just want to fast start and finish the game, so fifth inning, that's the first of late innings," Cooley said. "That's kind of our motto, 'late innings are our innings.' We just wanted to come back out, fight and finish."Â
A few batters later, sophomore outfielder Ashley Phillips hit a two-run double to center field to end the game.
"I just want to give credit to my teammates for getting on base in front of me and giving me the opportunity to win the game," Phillips said.
The Bulldogs got four solid innings out of redshirt junior right-handed pitcher Alison Owen. Owen who sat out last year after transferring from Georgia has been anxious to get back in the circle. She lets her nervousness fuel her.
"I like to take the nervousness and make it more excitement," Owen said. "I was so excited to get back (in the circle)."
After pitching seven innings and recording nine strikeouts in a loss to open the year, Owen bounced back with another good outing.
She gave up one hit and struck out five in four innings of work. It has been a long time coming for Owen, but it doesn't seem like she is missing a beat.
"I tribute a lot of that to coach (Vann Stuedeman)," Owen said. "She has just been working with me. We have fixed a lot of things, we've worked on a lot of things and we've constantly been in the bullpen. I'm just really thankful to be here and really blessed to have a coach that is willing to work as much as she does with me and the other pitchers as well."
Stuedeman says it easy to coach a player like Owen.Â
"She is so much fun to coach and so easy going," Stuedeman said. "One thing that's really special about Alison is that she has very good command of her pitches and really limits walks."
Senior lefty Stephanie Becker came in relief of Owen to pick up the win. She pitched one inning, gave up one run on two hits and struck out the side.
The Bulldogs took advantage of an error by the third baseman in the bottom of the third inning to get on the board first. Junior catcher Sam Lenahan reached on the error and drove in freshman outfielder Loryn Nichols in the process.Â
Redshirt junior third baseman and North Carolina transfer Logan Foulks, hit a two-run homer to cap the scoring in the third.
Phillips and Cooley each had two hits to lead MSU.Â
The Bulldogs are back in action today when they play South Alabama in the tournament finale at 3:30 p.m.
Game One
Mississippi State 8,
Tennessee State 0
The Bulldogs struck out 12 batters for a combined one-hitter and scored six runs in the fifth inning to knock off the Tigers in six innings in MSU's first game of the day.
It is the 15th time in 21 years the Bulldogs have struck out more than 12 batters. Four of those have come in Stuedeman's tenure as head coach.Â
Kylie Vry pitched four innings, gave up one hit, and struck out nine. Freshman righty Jacey Punches accounted for two innings in the circle, no hits and three Ks to get the win.
"Kylie did a great job," Owen said. "Her balls were moving. Jacey got her first win which is a really big deal."
The Bulldogs held a 6-0 lead going into the bottom of the sixth. Kayla Winfield stole home and Lenahan walked with the bases loaded to force home Jessica Offutt for the game winning run.
"Really excited about the offense," Stuedeman said.
Offutt led the Bulldogs with two hits and two RBI. Ashley Phillips had a double for the Bulldogs.ÂView more articles in:

Fragment of Temple Relief with Ducks
Originally this relief fragment belonged to a depiction of an offering bearer carrying three pintail ducks to the king. Amunemhat I used many Old Kingdom royal reliefs in the construction of his pyramid complex at Lisht, so it is sometimes difficult to distinguish reliefs made during his reign from original Old Kingdom works. Certain details of this exquisite fragment—particularly the elegant sweep of the duck's wing and the unnatural bend of the servant's fingers—suggest a Middle Kingdom date.
- Medium: Limestone, traces of paint
- Place Excavated: Lisht, Egypt
- Dates: ca. 1938-1909 B.C.E. or earlier
- Dynasty: XII Dynasty or earlier
- Period: Middle Kingdom

The 36 GPH, 360-degree bridged type micro sprinkler assembly with yellow nozzle is an insect proof micro sprinkler with coverage of up to 28' @ 30 PSI. When the spinner is closed at the end of the irrigation cycle insects are prevented from entering the spinner. This micro sprinkler is suited for irrigation under tree canopies, for seedlings, flowerbeds, ground-cover, young saplings, mature trees, and in greenhouses and nurseries. The fully assembled insect proof micro sprinkler comes with a spike, 24" micro tubing and barb.

The Drip Store's line of spinner type micro sprinklers presents an advanced concept in micro irrigation systems. The bridge type micro sprinklers operate using a spinner, which is seated on a nozzle or orifice, usually within some type of bridge design. When water passes thru the nozzle it spins the spinner, which throws the water in a full circle to the diameter determined by the flow rate and pressure. The spinner in this type of micro sprinkler closes at the end of the irrigation cycle preventing insects and spiders from entering the spinner and laying eggs inside the spinner housing. The micro sprinklers can be used in orchards under a tree canopy, and for groundcover, seed germination and flowerbeds. The micro sprinkler assembly comes with spike, 24" micro tubing and barb.
To install the micro sprinklers, first select the flow rate and check the micro sprinkler recommended spacing. If using the complete assembly micro sprinkler with the spike and the micro tubing, first insert the spike into the ground about 2-4", then punch a hole into the side of the drip tubing using a punch, and then insert the barb on the micro tubing into the drip tubing.

Academy Overview
The Revolution Academy presented by UnitedHealthcare, is a fully-integrated training and development program for youth soccer players, ages 7 and up, in the New England and Western New York areas.
The goal of the Revolution Academy is to train and develop young men who have the ability and desire to play soccer at the highest levels, including collegiate soccer and ultimately, professional soccer for the New England Revolution and the U.S. National Team, in its two distinct arms:
- Player Development Program
- Academy Youth Teams
Player Development Programs
The Revolution Academy's Player Development Programs are among the most innovative youth training programs in Major League Soccer, training players of all abilities in every aspect of the game: ball mastery, speed of play, movement on and off the ball and coordination and balance.
Beginning with local- and club-level training programs, and on up with Regional Development Schools and Summer Residential Programs, Player Development Programs offer instruction and training programs for players of every skill and ability level to help them improve as players and individuals:
Current Training Programs
- Town Association & Club Training
- Summer Academy
- Taylor Twellman Goal Scoring Academy
- High School Academy
- Regional Development Schools (RDS)
- RDS Summer Academy
- Residential Academy (Summer)
The region's top players have additional opportunities with the Revolution Academy Youth Teams: Under-18s, Under-16s and Under-14s. Most of the players who advance to the Revolution's Youth Teams come through the Player Development Programs and have had on-going training in the Revolution's youth system, specifically through the Regional Development Schools (RDS).
To register for one of our programs, click here. For more information, call 508-384-9242 or email email@example.com.
Revolution Youth Teams
The New England Revolution has three boys' youth teams that represent the New England Revolution and compete on a national stage: Under-18s, Under-16s and Under-14s.
All three teams play in the U.S. Soccer Development Academy.
The Revolution's Youth Teams, which the U.S. Soccer Federation rated among the nation's top eight youth programs last year, is the only fully-funded youth soccer program in New England. Qualified and talented players are accepted into the program without regard to their financial situation.
All players' needs and expenses related to soccer activities – training, facilities, equipment, uniforms, travel associated with competitions – are provided by the Revolution at no cost to the players or their families.
Revolution youth players are afforded unique playing opportunities not available to players at other regional clubs. Top performers have the opportunity to train with the Revolution first team during school breaks, and also are eligible to be called up to play against professionals in the MLS Reserve League alongside first-team players.
Additionally, the Revolution's Youth Teams receive invitations to play internationally, and most recently competed in the prestigious 2012 Future Champions Guateng tournament in Johannesburg, South Africa, where the team earned a sixth-place finish – the highest finish by an American club in tournament history.
The top Revolution Youth players also have the opportunity to eventually join the Revolution first team without going through the MLS SuperDraft process.
In 2006, Major League Soccer announced an initiative that created a "Homegrown Protected List" for each team. Clubs can retain the professional rights of players developed within its youth academy so they can sign them directly from their youth programs, or after the players end their collegiate careers.

Faith-Filled and Fearless
Contributed by Micheal Woods, executive director of Western Carolina Rescue Ministries (Ashville, N.C.) Reprinted with permission from The Beacon newsletter.
When I was a little boy I had an experience that marked me for years. I was at a clothes store shopping with my mother and grandmother, and like most kids I thought it was fun to slip in and out of the clothing racks. Although I was only feet from my family, I had a moment when I could feel invisible. Then the unthinkable happened. I emerged from the racks to find they had moved on to look at clothes somewhere else.
I'm not sure how it happened, but I went from being feet away to being fully lost. To make it worse, the woman who realized my situation and tried to help me had dark black hair and wore a black dressin my little mind, this was the way a witch looked. So the only person talking to me was the definition of what I believed to be evil.
Somewhere along the way, God taught me a truth that changed me so I dont have to have fear any more. In Isaiah 41:10, the Lord tells us, Do not fear, for I am with you; do not be dismayed, for I am your God. God says, Its okay, Ive got you. And that changes everything.
Throughout Scripture, God reminds us that He has us and if we are with Him, we can be driven by faith and not crippled by fear!

Remember that Walden's Title IV Code is 025042.
Dr. Sally Brocksen, a faculty member with a key role in developing Walden's Master of Social Work (MSW) program, describes how the degree helps professionals prepare for changes—and growth—in the field of social work.
Posted by Jen Raider
Posted on Tuesday, June 04, 2013
Dr. Sally Brocksen knows both social work and social work education well. She brings a PhD in social work and a decade of university teaching experience to her role as the academic program director for Walden University's new social work program. Earlier in her social services career, she managed a health clinic for low-income Sacramento, Calif., residents and held a fellowship at the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, where she focused on autism spectrum disorders and other developmental disabilities. Dr. Brocksen played an instrumental role in creating Walden's new Master of Social Work (MSW) program and is excited to share her thoughts about the program and the social work profession with Spotlight on Walden.
Sally Brocksen
Our role is to work on behalf of disenfranchised groups to ensure the quality of life and access to basic services for all people. Social workers advocate for the overall well-being of individuals, families, groups, organizations, and communities.
The great thing about social work is that you're not just treating the individual, but also looking at the individual within his or her environment. We advocate for larger societal changes and improved treatment options and make communities better places.
The need for social workers is increasing. According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, employment of social workers is expected to grow by 25% through 2020. Social workers already make up the largest number of mental health professionals and provide services to vulnerable populations, such as the elderly. The need for social workers is growing because our population is aging. There's also a growing understanding of social issues, such as the long-term impact of traumatic head injuries. This is creating more opportunities for social workers in veterans affairs, elder care, and mental health care.
We're seeing that veterans and their families have incredible needs. Social workers are also involved with the Affordable Care Act. The social work practitioner needs to understand new policies and advocate in communities so that patients and clients get the appropriate coverage they need.
Social workers will also need to ensure people get appropriate services once the new Diagnostic and Statistical Manual (DSM) comes out. This has implications for families whose children may no longer qualify for mental health services through their schools or for ancillary services such as physical and occupational therapy.
Meanwhile, the recession cut social services to the bone. Yet many children and elders rely on these safety net services. As social workers, we need to make sure people are not cut off or left out.
We're also facing changes within our own profession. The National Association of Social Workers is working toward requiring anyone with the title of social worker to be educated in social work. As more states adopt this standard, some social workers will need to return to school for the appropriate degree.
Walden's MSW degree program helps ensure that those who provide frontline services have a social work education. As an online program, it allows people to continue their social work education while they continue to serve their communities. For those who live in a rural community or an area without a social work program, Walden's online MSW provides an opportunity for professional education.
The time is right for social work to embrace online education, and an MSW program is a natural marriage with Walden's social change mission.
We're using a case study approach in our MSW program. As students learn the content, they apply it to specific cases dealing with issues social workers face on a daily basis. These are cases involving diverse populations, provided by social workers in the field throughout the country.
Through an integrated media experience that complements the written cases, students "visit" the same four families throughout their education. Video clips derived from the cases make it possible to read nonverbal cues and to critique the process. Students also complete two face-to-face residencies, where they demonstrate their social work practice skills to fellow students and faculty, plus two field placements in their own communities.
Most important, the values embedded throughout the Walden program speak to what it means to be a social worker. Six different elective clusters allow students to focus on their areas of interest—military; addictions; crisis and trauma; children, families, and couples; forensic social work; and medical social work. There's also an advanced standing option for those who qualify.
The social work program at Walden University is now part of the School of Social Work and Human Services. The school's mission statement reflects the learning outcomes and the professional standards for social work. Social work education is a great fit for Walden University and we are excited to provide this educational opportunity to current and future social workers.

The Sheriff's Office paid tribute to its dedicated volunteers at the annual Volunteer Appreciation Luncheon on Thursday, October 25, at First Baptist Church. More than 200 volunteers provide specialized assistance and services to inmates at the William G. Truesdale Adult Detention Center, offering religious services, Bible study, substance abuse recovery programs, tutoring, yoga and even musical instruction. Lieutenant Deborah Vaughan served as the emcee at the luncheon which was held in the Faith Activities Center and approximately 60 volunteers attended. Audience members were treated to a video produced by Volunteer Programs Coordinator Cherye Echane that showed volunteers at work in the jail and expressions of appreciation from the inmates, and Reverend Myron Contee, the Sheriff's Office Chaplain, gave the invocation. After lunch, Bettina Deynes, the new Human Resources Director for the City of Alexandria, gave the keynote speech which both volunteers and staff found to be very thoughtful and inspiring. Ms. Deynes then joined Sheriff Dana Lawhorne in presenting each volunteer with a certificate of appreciation and a special gift, a brown fleece throw blanket embroidered with "Alexandria Sheriff's Office Volunteer" in gold.
Sheriff Lawhorne offered closing remarks, expressing his deep gratitude to the Office's talented and committed volunteer corps. Photo: Bettina Deynes and Sheriff Dana Lawhorne thank volunteer Sylvia Drayton Jones for her dedication. Ms. Jones is one of several volunteers from Alfred Street Baptist Church who provide services to inmates.

MIRAMAR BEACH — Walton County Sheriff's Deputy Brad Barefield smiled for the camera Wednesday afternoon as a group of spring breakers crowded around him for a photo.
Barefield, a member of the Sheriff's Office's marine patrol unit, said he's not out to stop the fun for the thousands of spring breakers that crowd South Walton's beaches in March and April. He just wants to keep it safe.
"We're doing proactive enforcement, especially with underage drinking," Barefield said.
It's a big job.
"This time of the year is definitely more tiring, more stressful," he said. "Once they hit the beach, we're at it until it's time to go home."
Sheriff Mike Adkinson said that since 2010 the beaches have been taken over by spring breakers wanting to separate themselves from the Panama City Beach crowd.
Click here to see a slideshow of spring break on the beach at the Whale's Tale Restaurant.
Unfortunately, as the last few days of arrests and evictions have shown, that attitude doesn't seem to curb underage drinking or other illegal activities.
Every day for the next few weeks, the Sheriff's Office and partnering agencies will have 25 to 30 people patrolling the beaches and neighboring areas to help in the proactive approach Adkinson planned to take this year.
The marine patrol unit also has added a mobile command center that law officers use as an office to process paperwork for spring breakers caught breaking the law.
"I never thought I'd see the day when we'd be issuing as many NTAs (notices to appear in court) as we are," Adkinson said Wednesday morning as he watched spring breakers make their way to the beach about 11:30 a.m. "You can get control of it; it's just a matter of will power.
"We're setting a culture for what's not acceptable."
Adkinson anticipates deputies will issue the same number of notices to appear this week as they did during the entire spring break last year. Students who are issued the notices can either go to court to challenge it or pay a $250 fine.
Most students opt to pay the fine rather than return for a court appearance, Adkinson said.
In addition to more citations, Adkinson said it seems there are more spring breakers than years past.
While the exact reason isn't clear, law officers believe it's likely because of so many schools having spring break at the same time.
For students like University of Mississippi senior Chase Taylor, the reason for coming to South Walton is simple.
"It's cleaner," Taylor said as he sipped on his drink in a red solo cup. "The beach is prettier, there's nicer people and better looking women."
Other spring breakers shared his opinion. They emphasized that Panama City was the wrong kind of spring break party in their minds.
"This is where everyone was going," said 19-year-old Madi Rightley from Texas Christian University. "It's nice beaches for the day and at night we go to the bars."
Each morning as spring breakers sleep off the night before, deputies meet at the mobile command unit to discuss how they will approach the day and the trials it might present, Barfield said.
In the last week alone, Barfield said he not only has seen deputies getting hit with footballs and flip flops, but has seen more than one have to chase students down the beach.
"I'm definitely ready for a break come April," Barefield said as he printed NTAs to prepare for Wednesday's lawbreakers. "What we're trying to do is have a presence here with the deputies, patrol vehicles and the command center.
"Everybody knows we're here."

I ordered Monet's Artist's Garden at Giverny framed.

Shipping was prompt and packaging was bomb-proof. Thanks for a stunning piece for my home!Jane, New York

Happy Valentine's Day everyone! :razz:
I walked in the door to the sweetest sight tonight. A fire, flowers, wine, Reese's Egg(s), and Ben, my dear sweet Ben, preparing dinner for the two of us. Swoon!
I've been sent to the living room to relax by the fire while he finishes up, so I thought I'd share a light lunch I've been obsessing over recently in the meantime.
Cantaloupe, Prosciutto & Cashews
This combo is SO freaking unbelievable and best of all it takes, like, 4 seconds to put together after you've scooped out the cantaloupe.
I got the idea from Mowielicious who combined cantaloupe, avocado, cashews and parsley for the most gorgeous and refreshing looking salad I think I've ever seen. Not having an innate love of whole parsley leaves and, well, forgetting to put avocado in the first time, I came up with this combo instead.
The salty, whisper-thin slices of prosciutto melt with the juicy cantaloupe, while cashews provide a unique crunch and buttery finish. I ate it 3 times for lunch last week. Obsessed much?!
If I didn't have Ben, it would for sure be my Valentine. ;)
That, or the cutest
penguin nephew in the entire world. I can't even handle this! :D

$500 Nourish What Counts Donation + Giveaway
Did you know more women die of heart disease than all forms of cancer combined, yet less than 10% perceive it as their greatest health threat? (Sorry for the terrible segue!)
As a woman with naturally high levels of bad cholesterol, (thanks, genetics) which increases the risk of heart disease, this fact really hits home for me.
To celebrate healthy hearts and American Heart Month, Quaker Oats has teamed up with the American Heart Association to encourage women to "Nourish What Counts" by taking just 5 minutes to do something good for their hearts.
To help spread the message, Quaker will donate $500 to my local American Heart Association chapter, $250 on behalf of me and $250 on behalf of you, dear IGE readers, if we can generate 100 comments on this post with how we'll take 5 minutes to Nourish What Counts.
Need some ideas? Take 5 minutes to…
- Replace some of the refined grains you eat, like white bread and rice, with whole grains.
- Talk to your kids about healthy eating and exercise habits.
- Tack an 5 additional minutes onto your normal workout.
- Add a fresh fruit or serving of vegetables to your dinner plate.
- Learn how to create a healthier heart by reading articles like 8 Steps to a Healthy Heart.
I'm going to Nourish What Counts by parking further away at the grocery store, mall, etc. for the additional heart-pumping exercise. :) Visit Quaker.com/NourishWhatCounts for some more ideas!
As an additional incentive to leave a comment, Quaker will give away a box of their newest heart-healthy cereal Whole Hearts to 5 commenters. Please take a few minutes to tell me how you're going to Nourish What Counts, so we can secure this $500 donation! The deadline for leaving a comment to enter to win a box of Whole Hearts is Wednesday, February 15 at 5pm.
Thank you all, and here's to healthy hearts (which we can use to love even harder on Valentine's Day!) ;) Have a LOVEly night!

While I know very little about life inside the walls of a prison, I have heard enough stories to know that there are several ways you can become popular and several ways you can fall out of grace. OJ Simpson may have found a way to increase his standing among his peers on Super Bowl Sunday. According to the NY Post, Simpson held a Super Bowl viewing party in his jail cell at Lovelock Correctional Center in Nevada. He is reportedly one of the few inmates who has his own TV, so he invited several friends to cram into his 80-square-foot cell to watch the Baltimore Ravens defeat the San Francisco 49ers. "If you have the money, you can buy a TV at the inmate store and put it in your cell," the former NFL star's producer friends Norman Pardo told the Post. "He's like the Godfather of the prison now." Simpson is serving a 33-year sentence for kidnapping and armed robbery, so he could be there a while. A TV set was probably a solid investment, especially if it helps protect him from his fears of being killed by Aryan Warriors while behind bars. The post OJ Simpson reportedly through a Super Bowl viewing party in his prison cell appeared first on Larry Brown Sports. Related posts: O.J. Simpson Marrying Pen Pal in Prison?

And the purpose of this story? So some fool idiot can tie this story into Ray Lewis some kind of way. Get a life!!
You are the only one bringing up Rya Lewis here, idiot.
Oh..and by the way...Lewis is a murderer.
get a life douche bag!
First of all Ray Lewis is NOT a murderer, and second of all learn how to spell!! Rya????????
Wrong, Lewis never shot anyone!!
Beware...This is a scam.
I seen the same scam on another page and knew better than to look, you are right it is a scam! people beware
Big scam
he was just having a bit of nostalgia ... oh wait, he never won a superbowl, lol
Delete this fool.
I bet that was a killer party!
One of the best comments ever!
Haha. That's great.
If you're in prison, you shouldn't have any rights!!!
Tell that to the CO's who have to watch after these guys.
did they furnish with some white trash for him and his buddies?
I "WISH" Nicole would have went to an Aryan Camp....! "WOW" That's a big "ACCOMPLISHMENT" Are there anymore reasons to pop champaigne with the creepy crawler. What are we celebrating here? He need to repent for his sins(Murderer). The God Father stood for something(family) and it wasn't a jealous wife beating man who kills his wife! Please do not associate the God Father with someone's embarassing grandfather who is suppose to be at home enjoying his grandchildren and not in a jail cell serving 33 years at his age.
i wonder if the taxpayers footed that bill?
what's with the 80 square feet cell. it doesn't sound like he's being punished to me. What's he doing with so much money; he has never paid a dime to the families of the ones he killed. he's a scum bag that needs to pay for what he's done!
Well, He is in prison. As far as money, The Browns and Goldmans cannot go after his NFL pension. There's always a chance OJ gets introduced to a shank.
Do you know how friggin small 80sqft is? He is living in a very small cell with a small BS tv. You did get one thing right however, he is a scumbag
OHJ my gosh. Had almost forgotten about the s.b. Don't suppose
his kids(whatever age they are now)are invited to party with Dear Old Dad in prison(probably a tent set up away from the
prison). My ? has always been, what about the infamous motorcade down a L.A. freeway for so long and so slow if he was innocent. Also, why did he show no concern for his children
during that episode? This would have been the actions of most
innocent men. Thank goodness some justice was finally served!!
If the glove does fit is the reason he is in prison, don't ya
of course we're footing the bill!! When will people wake up??????????????? We are dieing as a nation here and NO ONE is doing S..t about it, me included................... We ARE DOOMED!!! Read: the rise and fall......... we are soooooo STUPID!!!!!!!!
What are you on?
Hey, chill pill, everyone. And reality check, while we're at it.
We're talking about OJ SIMPSON!! D'you truly not understand that? Are you that young and stupid? Or old and bitter? This is *"The Juice"*, late of the Buffalo Bills. 2003 yards, folks. *2003* yards!! And in a day when it was a game of men, For men. 2003 yards. In 14 games. Not the 29 or 30 they play, now.
You've seen the footage. The pix. UnReal, the majesty. Dodging one tackler, straight-arming another, hip-faking a third...! This is History. This is The Game. This...is one of its heroes. Orenthal James Simpson.
It's easy to mock, and it's easy to find fault. There's no beauty left in this "appropriate", Brave New World you're creating. No, let's pile on. Let's be like video game monsters and "keep killing him". Again, it's easy. Isn't it? He's trapped in a cell in a prison in a life from which, he'll never be free. And, that isn't good enough for you. But, you can't stop Yesterday. You are literally powerless, against That Which Has Gone Before.
I say, Run, OJ, Run! Go, Juice! Helluva running back.
You, sir, are an idiot. The man is a killer, period. No matter how great he "was", come nightfall, he will be 1 thing--a killer. Too bad you are not his bunkmate buddy. That way, you could continue to suck up and suck on him.
Privileges in prison is not about rights, it is about money going back into the system,in prison you pay 200% more for an item that you would pay in the free world, a big chunk of the profits is for the prison to keep according to the DOC for "recreational purposes" such as paying for cable,buying lifting weight equipment,baseballs,basketballs, soccer balls, teams uniforms...etc.etc. So when you hear people say that tax payers foot all this so called luxuries for felons IT IS A LIE!!! and I know because I've been there........
Must be nice to have partys in prison where you are there for punishment for crimes against people, free food, free shelter, He should have been exucuted for his part in the murders! Its no ones fault but his for this situation, Get away with murder and then be stupid enough to arm rob someone, did he actually think he could get away with that also?
OJ is currently serving a 33 year sentence because Double Jeopardy does not serve any purpose in this country. When an
individual can be tried and found not guilty in this country,
and sent to jail for the very same charges he was found innocent
of (simply using more eloquent terminology), it solidifies the
fact that racism is ALIVE AND WELL and that EVIL DOERS still
exist. Many of you hate OJ Simpson while you applaude those
Police Officers who have murdered soooo many young blacks and
have been exonerated. MAY GOD BLESS YOU
YEA RIGHT.....The firast thing that comes ouuta ya mouth is racism......GET A FRIGGIN LIFE...tired of hearing your racism crap...OJ is a scum and needs to be shot for killing those people
BS....u know damn good and well that OJ was guilty..
Put the Bible down and read a newspaper. OJ is currently in jail for charges totally unrelated to the murder charges he was aquitted on. No double jeopardy.
I wanna see ur punk ass talk that racism horseshit to Ronald Goldman's father who's son OJ murdered!!! Just cause that piece of trash got acquitted, doesn't mean he wasn't GUILTY! He got acquitted cause the government didn't want a bunch of THUGS to tear down LA and every other city in America...BOTTOM LINE! You know it, I know it & the rest of America know it. The MOST EMBARRASSING thing about this whole deal is this POS is watching TV, getting fed and still alive on MY DOLLAR & every other HONEST tax paying citizen's DOLLAR!!! SCREW YOU OJ SIMPSON, u POS!!!
I second your emotion Mr.1B1stUB2nd! Yeah, The government did not want a war. The second time the Thugs said "Your On Your Own". He was always a thug, he went thugging with some wanna be Thugs and they Flipped and Snitched. I guess you should pick your company wisely.
I am a Black Woman;However, I totally disagree with supporting any murderer regardless to what color he is. "Killing over Coochie" Okay. When Black's say and think our children are important and matter then others as well may share the same sentiment!!!!
So F*#in what. He'll be hosting till SB MXXII (think thats how you spell 72). Be more interested if he gots a boyfriend yet. Is he the bull or the biatch ???
Almost, LXXII is 72, MXXII is 1022.
Actually, Super Bowl 72, would be LXXII...and, trust me, he'll be providing the color commentary, a free man, by SB L (that's 50..."M", is 1000, btw).
As for the Reply to me, Above, I don't read Replies, but accidentally caught the word, 'idiot'. Nice to see how I'm proven so offbase, by humanitarian sportsfans.
Look up Glen Rogers.
Maybe O.J. should have just been tried for something else from the beginning.
Exactly Glen Rogers killed Nicole Brown and Ron Goldman so now what do white people do with they hate for O.J lol
O.J. is bar none one of the top 10 idiots on the planet. The fact that his life is even note worthy makes me wonder about the writer of the article as well. Isn't time better spent on important issues, rather than O.J. a.k.a. Lou Zerr. P.S. Knowing the prison system like I DO -- O,J, is not the ONLY INMATE with a Television and you don't get them from the prison store! They are ORDERED via mail or online!!! 85% of the population has one.
Why was my post removed?
No freedom of speech here?
Most of you here have never been to prison, except what you see on tv. And think that it is real. People in jail have all the right just like you and I except Men don't have women, and women don't have babies. An as far as the Aryan Bro's, an all white group, there also the BGF. that protect Black Men. Now as far as Billy Bob, and Billy Ray, they can get stuck too, over nonsence. So you people get a grip, he will do his 16 years, get out find another white woman and live happliy ever after, with (ALL) of his money, remember haft goes to his kids, which he has custody off, smile.
And you finding that to be acceptable is what is wrong with this country, Loser.
OJ would be a far, far better Secretary of Defense!
HE looks right at home.good for you scumbag!Race has nothing to do with armed robery,it is what it is.as far as the outher charge who cares!
Worked at Lovelock as a Corrections Officer. OJ has a small see through TV like every other inmate. Lovelock houses the greatest population of convicted child molesters and PC's in the State Of Nevada Corrections System. He probably watched it with a bunch of scumbags just like him! Have fun in your little cell oj. Just where you belong!
In my opinion, I guess I must have a life because I have no idea who Ray Lewis is. I am actually tired of news bs. We believe what the media wants us to believe. If the media said the sky is falling, we would believe it as gospel. They pick and chose what they want us to know and in the meantime, real and worthy stories.
This is not about Death. It's about a superbowl party held in OJ's jail cell None of you haters saw him do anything wrong. Oj is mentally dead never to feel or see Freedon again. He paid the cost to be the boss.
First of all, he was not found guilty of the murder largely because the police were caught lying. Secondly the "victims" of the robbery he supposedly committed were total scum bags who were essentially selling his stolen memorabilia. Finally, his sentence is outrageous for the crime but he is OJ so they got to make him pay for his real crime; marrying a white woman. I'll bet he wishes now he had kept it black.
First off, for you tards that don't get your facts straight before commenting, he is not in prison for murder. This is a fine example of why people don't care if they go to prison or not, no kind of punishment to most of them, they get free room and board, computers, TV etc. Race is not the topic here people, look at it for what it is, a POS took lives and in my opinion got away with it. It is wrong, black, white, yellow, what he did was WRONG so for those of you that blame him for the color or those of you who approve of him for his color is WRONG.
SO....WHAT? You think it was the only SB party in any jail?
How do they fix it? In my opinion they should not have radios, TV's or computers, hard labor for the repeat offenders and the serious crimes. Work them for the good of the people in some way to where they don't want to come back to prison or so they don't want to go there to begin with. Just maybe crime would go down.
I do believe that a lot of the American public thinks that suspects should by tried by the media with all of their propaganda and money making sensationalization of the news and exploitation of both victims and suspects alike! Regardless of how much the media would have loved to convict this man of murder, a JURY who heard ALL THE FACTS, not just bits and pieces like the media was giving out, found him "NOT GUILTY"!
I just can't believe how the general public seems to think they have the ability to be judge and jury without having even half the facts that a JURY is given!
Another case on point is Casey Anthony. I watched most of what was televised of her trial. I don't know if the JURY was correct in their verdict; however, they found her NOT GUILTY"! I was not on that jury. I don't know what I would have decided if I had been, but she is NOT GUILTY! Only God has the RIGHT to judge her now!
Our government, Our Constitution, Our laws give us the right to trial by jury NOT TRIAL BY MEDIA!!!
WAKE UP AMERICA!!! Believing everything you see on the news is like going back to childhood where one cannot differentiate between what one sees in a movie and what one sees in real life!
Next, will you be buying a Superman costume and stepping out onto the interstate to stop speeding traffic?????
ANYONE who believes everything they see on the "NEWS" is a total moron!
I wonder if he has washed the half-time show from his bunk-mate out of his bung yet? Got away with murder 2X, now dies a little more each day in the iron bar motel...
The real undercurrent of this article is pure racism, as for example, "...from his fears of being killed by Aryan Warriors gang members while behind bars." The author blatantly attempts to encourage racial violence against OJ. In fact, many of the posts above are racists comments about OJ. Why? Is it because they claim he killed two white people? Well, the facts are he submitted to the system of justice and was found NOT GUILTY. Where is the outrage for these commentors for Emmitt Till, Abram Smith, Thomas Shipp, the Scottsbore Boys and so many others who were murdered by the filthy whites who, to this very day, have not been brought to justice while there are thousands of witnesses to the crimes? Tell me, where is your outrageous comments for those victims!
I second your emotions too. The guilty go scott free plain and simple. I shall not judge so they say; however, I know there is a difference between apples and oranges. We the community should judge if we have to live in this world. May "ALL" the devils burn in "Eternal Hell" and there is a Hell....! I hope I don't go there while I'm running my mouth. I'm a sinner too.
he did not get away with murder denvertc, and what is with the homo remarks? do you obsess about sex in prison?
I honestly believe yall proved a point by locking OJ up in jail not because no kidnapping and robbing and sentencing him for 33 years, but because alot of ppl really believed he was responsible for murdering his wife and her lover....why should he have to rot in jail, it's not worth it. These rappers going around assaulting and killing ppl almost everyday to prove themselves to be hard and they don't get hardly no time, why??? Also, since yall treating this 64yr old man like he's a damn sniper he should throw all kinds of parties in jail, afterall, he got life if you add the yrs he has left.
What exactly takes place at prison party? (Almost afraid to ask).
Sure, O.J. can get away with anything. He's got the privileges unlike any other inmate in the world. Perhaps even more than Charles Manson. My punishment for O.J. would be to shoot him in the foot, then the other foot. After that, both knees. Then, shoulders, neck, BALLS. Then let him feel the pain for a while. As a finally, after a few days, shoot him where his heart would be. As if he has one. Rot in hell you bastard.

The Sisters of Mercy (Mercy) are one of the largest health care providers in the US. They needed a document repository system that could scale to support an internal staff of 30K+ employees, and could also serve as the document source for a number of external facing public websites. Appnovation Technologies provided their solution Canopy; a set of tools designed to bring the best of Alfresco together with the best of Drupal. Drupal is an outstanding web development framework that allows you to build pretty much any kind of website you can think of; perfect for public facing sites. However, a few things that Drupal is not particularly good at are large Document Repositories, Document Workflows and dealing with Hierarchical Data Stores. All great strengths of Alfresco. This presentation with cover some of the ways that Canopy combines these two great platforms and will go into detail on how we used Canopy to deliver Mercy a full backend/frontend solution. Some topics covered will include: Canopy overview, Content Management Interopobility Service (CMIS), Drupal/Alfresco with Solr, Custom REST integration, Single Sign On, and others.

In a moderate way, 1978 was a monumental year for Corvette. While Detroit continued to reel, trying to cope with ever-increasing federal safety and emissions standards, as well as a serious oil crunch, many onlookers wondered if the heyday of the American sports car was indeed past. While a few despaired in the late '70s that the passion and performance that defined Corvette were gone forever, Chevrolet sold more 'glass cars during that era than ever before or since. And, GM's Corvette Group engineers remained quietly industrious, looking for ways to keep the Feds from sucking the life out of these cars.
In hindsight, we see today that Corvette was simply suffering a bit of mid-life crisis, and 1978 marked a breakthrough year-a year the enthusiasm began to again overcome the regulations. It most notably also marked the Corvette's milestone 25th anniversary and the first time that a Corvette would pace the Indy 500.
A revised look, more power, improved handling, and a plusher interior marked Corvette's 25th model year. The introduction of the fastback-style coupe marked the most significantly redesigned Corvette since the C3's introduction in 1968 and only the second real facelift given to the Gen-Three Sharks (the first being the introduction of "rubber" bumper caps in 1973-74). The larger, wraparound rear window not only looked swoopier, but it also increased the Sharks' extremely limited cargo-carrying capacity from 7.8 cubic feet to 8.4 cubic feet. A retractable security cover was included to protect the more exposed stowage area.
A four-page driving impression of a '78 Silver Anniversary Edition with standard suspension, standard engine, and automatic in the Mar./Apr. '78 issue of VETTE began, "A cross between a two-passenger Seville and a genuine GT sports car, the '78 Corvette and its magic qualities continues as America's premier head-turner." It's a description that is even more apt with today's C5s. The '78's interior was redesigned, including a more squared-off layout of the speedometer and tachometer, the reintroduction of a glovebox that replaced the exposed map pockets, and revised door panels with larger, screw-on armrests that replaced the molded type used since 1965. According to that 1978 review, "The '78 Corvette is more luxurious, more comfortable, and less like a hard-core sports car than ever before. You win some, you lose some!"
As for performance, both the standard L48 and the optional L82 engines picked up several real horsepower. A new, dual-snorkel air cleaner package, lower-restriction dual exhausts with redesigned mufflers, and a single cat raised the L82 to 220 hp and the L48 to 185 hp-except in California where emissions standards only allowed the base performer and pulled 10 ponies back out of it. A 24-gallon fuel tank replaced the former 17-gallon tank. Room was created for the extra capacity by going with a smaller, lighter spare tire. While a variety of suspension packages from moderately firm to rather plush were still offered, fatter rubber was offered as an option in '78 in the form of Goodyear P255/60 R-15 tires. These meatier shoes looked beefy and provided more grip, but, at least on early-production '78s, they required front fender grinding at the assembly plant for clearance.
Before 1978, Chevrolet had never produced a special or collector-oriented "Anniversary Edition" Corvette. That would change, however, as the Corvette crossed the quarter-century mark, and it was chosen (at last) to be the pace car for the 1978 Indianapolis 500.
In his fall 1977 View From the Top editorial, VETTE Magazine's founding editor, Marty Schorr, spoke of a "customized, two-tone silver and gray '78 1/2 Aero-Coupe [to be] built to commemorate the use of a Corvette as Pace Car for the 1978 Indy 500." The proposed special edition sported red pinstriping and unique Goodyear tires with "Corvette"-lettered sidewalls. A prototype in this configuration was actually featured in the Jan./Feb. '78 VETTE.

text: Sherry Shall Rise Again Richard Auffrey August 2, 2010 FCG, The Wine World, Wine Spotlight 1 Comment Sherry consumption and sales have been on a decline for the last thirty years. Some might believe that the day of Sherry is over, or that it will never return to its previous heights. However, looking at 3,000 years of history in the Sherry region of Spain, known as Jerez locally, gives me faith to exactly the contrary.
