Buck Watford of Port St. Joe is currently on his fourth deployment to the battle theaters of Iraq and Afghanistan.
Terry Thompson, another Port St. Joe resident, is, like Watford, currently serving in Afghanistan.
That is not their only connection and their shared schooling at Troy (AL) University has ignited a drive to gather goodie bags and care packages to send to the two men.
The Panama City site of Troy University is on a campaign to give back to Thompson and Watford, both alumni.
"We need local support," said Matthew Wright, a recruiter for the Panama City site. "They are over there for us and we are trying to do something to take care of them."
Wright said the drive aims on donations of all kinds, from money for shipping postage to canned goods and other non-perishable items.
Even a handwritten note can make a difference for a soldier overseas, Wright said.
"It just means the world to these soldiers," Wright said. "Terry received one from the school and his parents were also real touched."
Pam Watford, Buck's wife and a teacher at Port St. Joe Junior High, said that this deployment, which began in the spring and will continue until just after the first of the year, has been more difficult than she originally thought.
Afghanistan, she said, has turned out to be a much different theater of war – she noted recent incidents of men dressed in Afghan army/police uniforms shooting American soldiers among other factors – than Iraq.
And she added that while she initially thought with her two children, Haley and Chase, grown this would be an easier deployment on the home front, she said that hasn't always necessarily been the case.
As military family members can attest, emotions are an unpredictable part of war.
She added that Troy University is a true partner to the military, doing much to accommodate military members wishing to continue their educations.
"I know Troy in the past has been very military friendly," Pam Watford said. "They are also very good with providing online courses to those in the military."
The Panama City site is a prime example of the opportunities.
Though the site has a few classrooms, it is primarily an office for registration and outreach for students wishing to pursue dozens of degree options offered by Troy.
The university offers both undergraduate and graduate degrees.
And for the coming weeks the school is reaching out to Thompson and Watford.
Pam Watford said that the school has already sent care packages of Troy memorabilia – a coozie or t-shirt – in the past, but this drive is more concentrated and aimed at making a difference as the holidays approach.
There are boxes for donations in Pam's classroom as well as other classrooms and locations around Port St. Joe Jr./Sr. High School.
Chase has his Troy University fraternity, FarmHouse, involved in the effort.
The goal is to send packages off next week.
For any questions or to coordinate a donation contact Wright at 747-0634 (office) or 227-8276 (cell).
"We are trying to just get what we can and send it off to them," Wright said. "We are not trying to push anything on anybody. This isn't about Troy University. This is about our alumni who are serving overseas.
"We just thought, if we are going to support an alumnus, why not Buck and Terry who are over there for us. This is a win-win for everybody involved."

Founded in 1639, Exeter, like a lot of other places in New England, started out as a mill town. One of the community's old mills has new life today as an upscale apartment community.
CertaPro Painters® of the Seacoast & Lakes Region of New Hampshire completed a repaint of the Exeter Mills apartments in December. The units were occupied so the owners wanted to keep odor to a minimum. Scott Mitchell of CertaPro Painters contacted his Sherwin-Williams store in Stratham, N.H. to make sure he had the best product for this major project.
"Sherwin-Williams and my paint rep, Mike Lucci, rushed right out and did a site visit," he says. "They put together a paint spec, took samples and produced a custodian report for the customer providing color information and product placement to help me land an $87,000 job."
Low-VOC ProGreen® 200 was specified to address the customer's odor concerns.
"The ProGreen product worked out extremely well for us. All the tenants commented on how great it looked and we had no issues with odor or dry times," Mitchell says. "We also had a little bit of a color change and the ProGreen Eg-Shel covered extremely well."

CORAL GABLES — Al Golden didn't slam his fists on the podium during his weekly press conference, but he just as fervently stressed the importance of establishing the running game.
The Hurricanes have won three of four games when rushing for 175 yards or more and they controlled the clock in the defeat, against North Carolina last week, to limit a Tar Heels' offense to 26 points less than their season average. Saturday's opponent, No. 12 Florida State, will provide the toughest test for a solid Miami offensive line and group of running backs looking to do what few teams have accomplished this season.
FSU (6-1, 3-1 Atlantic Coast Conference) is ranked fifth in the nation in rushing defense, giving up just 74 yards per game. Only two teams, Clemson and USF, finished with more than 100 yards against the Seminoles. Both of those games ended in FSU victories.
Freshman Duke Johnson leads Miami with 428 yards and five touchdowns on 74 carries. Senior Mike James is tops in carries with 88 and is second in rushing yards (402) and touchdowns (four). James also has been used successfully in the Wildcat formation.
Johnson is still recovering from turf toe, but he hasn't missed a game. He has been capped at 14 carries twice and Golden said the freshman needs more work.
"We need him to play more. Clearly we are all surprised by his ability," Golden said. "He's a tough kid for him to do what he did.
"He did not practice at all last week, didn't even lace up. He went out there and torqued on his foot, planted, and had yards after contact, didn't just go down."
Johnson had 47 yards in an 18-14 loss to North Carolina. He went without a reception for the first time this season and James led Miami (4-3, 3-1) with a season-high 96 yards and his first touchdown in three games.
James was a bystander in last year's 23-19 FSU win, the Seminoles holding him to 16 yards on four carries. Miami outgained FSU 140-63 behind Lamar Miller's 92, however, which helped keep the game close. The same was true in last week's defeat, as Miami's defense, statistically one of the nation's worst, was aided by ball control on offense.
"People are saying last week we held a team that scored 44 points per game to 18," Golden said. "They don't understand that maybe the offense had something to do with that, running the ball effectively and holding it to 30 minutes.
"You can't abandon the run against this team. You're going to get some negatives. They're very good up front. There are some things to do, you have to block them."
The simplicity of the latter statement is more difficult in practice. But Golden is confident in an offensive line that has proved to be stout against the pass and run. It's a group that hasn't faced the talent and depth of FSU, with Golden noting the Seminoles' rotation of more than 14 players to keep fresh bodies on the field.
Conversely, this may be one of the best offensive lines FSU has faced in eight games. Miami's line averages 317 pounds and no starter is shorter than 6-foot-4. The unit has been able to control the line of scrimmage at times, especially when the running game is working, and Golden said the key is staying with the plan and trusting in his players.
"To be honest with you, this is a great challenge. Greatest challenge of the year if you are on the offensive line," Golden said. "The greatest challenge so far this year and this season for us. The test is Saturday night. We'll evaluate that."
Morris update: Miami starting quarterback Stephen Morris practiced for the first time this week on Wednesday, but was still limited with an ankle injury. Backup quarterback Ryan Williams led the starters in practice and Golden said the team is moving forward as if Morris can't start. Morris was listed as doubtful on Miami's Thursday injury report and Golden said the junior will play if he made strides over the next three days.
Golden was asked if he would talk to Morris about possibility of sitting out. He scoffed at the notion and said it's Morris' decision.
"I'm not going to have that conversation with Stephen. If you want to have that with him, go right ahead, that's not going to go very well," Golden said. "We all only get so many shots at this. I'm not going to ask him to sit out the Florida State game or for any game, to be honest with you.
"If he's ready to go, he's ready to go. If you see him out there, it's because he is ready to go and he can execute in that game. If he's not, then that question is answered."

The Battle of Crécy (often the Battle of Cressy in English) took place on 26 August, 1346 near Crécy in northern France, and was one of the most important battles of the Hundred Years' War. The combination of new weapons and tactics have caused many historians to consider this battle the beginning of the end of chivalry.
In the battle, the French knights, protected by mail reinforced with plate, nearly exhausted by having to walk through a quagmire of mud to charge up a shallow hill into Welsh arrow storms, were cut down. The result was that much of the French nobility died, perhaps as many as a third (estimates of the actual numbers in each army vary considerably, depending on the source).
Knights' armour had not yet evolved to the stage where longbows could not penetrate, and the knights' horses were barely protected at all. The storm of arrows killed or disabled the knights' mounts, and left the knights floundering about in the mud on foot beneath a withering fire.
The battle is seen by many historians as the beginning of the end of chivalry; during the course of the battle, many of the prisoners and wounded were killed. This was against the chivalric codes of warfare; and knights on horseback were no longer "undefeatable" by infantry.
Crécy may also have seen the first real use of cannon on the European battlefield, which were used only in small numbers by a few states during the 1340s. "Ribaldis", a type of cannon, were first mentioned in the English Privy Wardrobe accounts during preparations for the battle between 1345 and 1346, and they were perhaps employed against both the Genoese and the cavalry. Similar cannon would appear also at the Siege of Calais in the same year, although it would not be until the 1380s that the "ribaudekin" was mounted on wheels. The use of firearms at this battle is only mentioned in one contemporary account of the battle, that of Villani (d. 1348). Villani did travel abroad during much of the early 14th century, yet he had returned to his home in Florence at the time of the Battle of Crecy, so his information was likely second hand if not third or fourth hand. His account also conflicts with almost all of the other contemporary chronicles of this time on the events of the battle, specifically the use of firearms. In one of the later versions of his chronicle, Froissart does mention guns being used in the battle, but by that time firearms had become more common in warfare. His earlier versions fail to include any mention of firearms. So while firearms were perhaps employed, their possible effect on the battle should be viewed critically.
The political consequences of the battle were significant for Edward III especially, who had financed and supplied his expedition to Normandy with increasingly unpopular policies. The widespread use of purveyance and the arresting of ships to provide transport for his armies had left the King with potential sources of discontent in his kingdom. Likewise, the bold and unprecedented move to expand compulsory service, usually only required for defence of the coasts, to supply overseas service in France proved to be deeply unpopular with many of his subjects. However, the successes of the campaign did much to mute opposition when English Parliament was called at 11th – 20th September 1346.
In a strong defensive position, Edward III ordered that everybody fight on foot and distributed the army in three divisions, one commanded by his sixteen-year-old son, Edward, the Black Prince. The longbowmen were deployed in a "V-formation" along the crest of the hill. In the period of waiting that followed, the English built a system of ditches, pits and caltrops to maim and bring down the enemy cavalry.
The French army, commanded by Philip VI, was much more disorganized, due to overconfidence on the part of his knights. The French tactical mindset was centred on the use of cavalry, and Philip was naturally confident that his cavalry could overwhelm Edward's much smaller cavalry contingent. Philip stationed his Genoese mercenary crossbowmen, under Ottone Doria, in the front line, with the cavalry in the back. The French even went as far as to leave the pavises, the only means of defence for the crossbowmen, behind, along with the infantries. Both decisions proved deadly mistakes. French chronicler Froissart gives an account of the action:
The English, who were drawn up in three divisions and seated on the ground, on seeing their enemies advance, arose boldly and fell into their ranks...You must know that these kings, earls, barons, and lords of France did not advance in any regular order...There were about fifteen thousand Genoese crossbowmen; but they were quite fatigued, having marched on foot that day six leagues, completely armed, and with their crossbows. They told the constable that they were not in a fit condition to do any great things that day in battle. The earl of Alençon, hearing this, said, "This is what one gets by employing such scoundrels, who fail when there is any need for them."
The first attack was from the crossbowmen, who launched a series of volleys with the purpose of disorganizing and frightening the English infantry. This first move was accompanied by the sound of musical instruments, brought by Philip VI to scare the enemy. But the crossbowmen would prove completely useless. With a firing rate of around 1-2 shots every minute, they were no match for the longbowmen, who could fire one shot every 5 seconds. Furthermore, their weapons were damaged by the brief thunderstorm that had preceded the battle, while the longbowmen were able to simply unstring their bows until the weather improved. The crossbowmen did not have their pavises, which were needed to cover their bows during the long reloading procedure and had remained in the baggage train. Under the hail of English arrows, the Genoese crossbowmen suffered heavy losses and were unable to approach the English lines to the point where their crossbows would have been effective. Frustrated and confused, they retreated, as any trained professional soldier would have done. The knights, however, hurled insults at the crossbowmen. Calling these crossbowmen cowards, the knights and kings hacked down their own men. The fault was not the crossbowmen's, for the decision of leaving the pavises was made by the king. By the time this contretemps ended, several waves of longbow fire had already fallen among the French. At this the French knights decided it was time to charge, and they ran right over the retreating Genoese in an unorganized way. The English longbowmen continued firing as the infantry advanced, and many French knights fell along the way.
Froissart writes that English cannon had made "two or three discharges on the Genoese", which is taken to mean individual shots by two or three guns because of the time necessary to reload such primitive artillery. These were believed to shoot large arrows and simplistic grapeshot. The Florentine Giovanni Villani agreed that they were destructive on the field, though he also indicated that the guns continued to fire upon French cavalry later in the battle:
With the crossbowmen invalid, the French cavalry charged again in organized rows. However, the slope and man-made obstacles disrupted the charge. At the same time, the longbowmen continued firing volleys of arrows upon the knights. Each time, more corpses fell, blocking successive waves of advance. The French attack could not break the English formation, even after 16 attempts, and they suffered frightful casualties. Edward III's son, The Black Prince, came under attack, but his father refused to send help, saying that he wanted him to "win his spurs". The prince subsequently proved himself to be an outstanding soldier.
At nightfall, Philip VI, himself wounded, ordered the retreat. It was a disastrous and humiliating defeat for France and a majestic win for England.
After the French left the field, the English looked through the wounded French to see who was worth taking prisoner for ransom. Those knights who were too severely wounded to be easily carried off the field were dispatched with misericordias (mercy-givers). These were long daggers which were inserted through the unprotected underarms and into the heart, or through visor slits and into the brain. This was against the chivalric codes of warfare, since peasants were killing knights; knights were also dying from anonymous arrow shots rather than face to face in combat with peers.
This battle established the military supremacy of the English / Welsh longbow over the French combination of crossbow and armoured knights (due to the yeoman archer's significantly greater rates of fire and range longer than that of the contemporary crossbow), and was to alter significantly the way in which war was conducted for a considerable period of time thereafter. After the Battle of Crécy, Edward III went on to besiege the city of Calais, which surrendered to him after eleven months, giving the English a base in northern France. The next major battle in the Hundred Years War, the Battle of Poitiers in 1356, would see another defeat for the French, under very similar conditions.
At this stage in history the longbow was capable of penetrating armour (particularly the parts not yet covered by plates), but not all the arrows shot by the longbowmen would have found a target or penetrated the armour of the advancing French knights if they did, partly due to angles at which they happened to strike. However, victims would have their horses shot out from under them, and it is worth remembering that even a non-piercing impact would still be substantial enough to bruise, wind and knock down knights on foot as they attempted to advance. Froissart claimed the barrages of arrows were so heavy and frequent that they blotted out the sun, and even allowing for some poetic licence, not every arrow would have needed to find a target. If survivors of the volleys reached the English formation, they were cut down with relative ease by the defensive line of dismounted English men-at-arms. The overall effect was devastating.
After the battle, the Black Prince, having won respect and honour, was triumphant. Yet he did not go straight to his father Edward III, but stayed on the battle field to pay his tribute to a stranger - King John of Bohemia. John was a middle-aged man who was almost blind, and yet he fought very bravely during the battle and killed many of the few English casualties. Edward of Woodstock, the Black Prince, was deeply impressed and mourned the loss of a hero. As a last gesture of admiration and respect, he took the old king's shield and made it his own (Prince of Wales's feathers). It is now a famous symbol throughout England and Wales, being the crest of the Surrey Cricket Club and of course the Welsh Rugby Union.
When the battle was over and the Welsh longbowmen had returned to their home in Llantrisant, South Wales, they were given an acre of land for their bravery. They were also awarded "Freemen" status and were exempted from paying tax for grazing rights for their cattle.
Another can be found in Warren Ellis' graphic novel Crécy or in Bernard Cornwell's fictional account of an archer in the Hundred Years War, An Archer's Tale (US title) or Harlequin (UK title).

well you have to think, X11 was never designed to be used how it is today. it's severely limiting Linux's potential.
I would love to be using Ubuntu on my PC at work but it's impossible to get two video cards to work nicely extending the desktop with the current display server. If my recent adventure taught me anything, it's that Linux/Ubunutu needs a ton of work still to be taken seriously.

I will admit that I'm not too fluent in how Linux works under the hood, but in my situation I have found that Ubuntu's display server, while it may be more robust than in the past, has limited my ability to manually get a multi-display, multi-videocard setup to work. Way back when I was actually able to manually edit some config file for XOrg have it all work. My only point is that I am a bit disappointed that I'm completely out of luck here until perhaps this display server is done. One can only hope.

since Wayland development is going so slow this could be just what the linux world needs

I don't get why Canonical are choosing to do this. Why didn't they just contribute to the Wayland project?
Posted 04 March 2013 - 20:54
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MirSpec << Go here, scroll down to the "Why not Wayland/Weston?" section. One reason (according to that link) is that the Wayland protocol has similar issues as X w.r.t to input handling since input handling in Wayland and X is done basically the same way.
I don't get why Canonical are choosing to do this. Why didn't they just contribute to the Wayland project?
There's a difference between fragmenting for no reason (like in the case of the 100 million different desktop environments) and fragmenting for for valid reasons which it seems are in play with this.
Because it's linux, and fragmenting is better than cooperating for a common goal.
this s seriously the main downfall of linux, and what keeps tripping it whenever it starts to get a good run.

An anonymous reader writes "Apple today posted its second Samsung apology to its UK website, complying with requests by the UK Court of Appeal to say its original apology was inaccurate and link to a new statement. As users on Hacker News and Reddit point out, however, Apple modified its website recently to ensure the message is never displayed without visitors having to scroll down to the bottom first."

Topics in PathologyEvent Details: 12:00 p.m., February 07, Learning Resources Center
Cirilo Sotelo-Avila, M.D., professor of pathology and director of pathology and laboratory medicine at SSM Cardinal Glennon Children's Medical Center, will present "Pathology of Selected Developmental Vestiges" during Topics in Pathology at noon Monday, Feb. 7, in Pitlyk Auditorium C at the Learning Resources Center.
About the presentation:
Many anatomic structures of the human body are "leftovers" from embryonic or fetal life. They represent remnants of structures that existed during intrauterine development and have no known function in postnatal life. These remnants sometimes produce significant clinical problems including congenital malformations, hyperplastic overgrowth or neoplastic induction to form benign or malignant tumors. Developmental vestiges link embryology, teratology, oncology, pathology and clinical medicine.

- Sep 15, 2006, 9:08:00 AM
I'd like to know if the RIF mission files show a brand new robot design, or if they are using the standard tribot. I might pay $6 to see building instructions for a new useful design, but definately not just to see the tribot. If anyone pays the $6, can they say if it was worth it? Don't need to reveal the details.

I downloaded a few minutes ago. Not bad. Not bad at all.
There are a bunch of documents in the zip file. 4 pdfs, 1 word, and 1 txt.
1 pdf - build steps, full color, unique robot, I don't want to give away the surprise, obviously some time put into this document, about 100 pages
2 pdf - program steps, full color, some of it doesn't make sense but I'm not an expert (yet) at this program language, good comments, each step has one page color showing the block and the little area in lower left of screen where you tweak the settings, about 50 pages
3 pdf - the story, objectives, some pictures/images for flavor and realism, definitely some thought put into this doc, about 15 pages (plus a cool photo at the end of the location for this mission)
4 word document, form to fill out
5 text version of the form
6 readme file
My only complaint is it took me a few seconds to figure out how to get the download after paying. Check your email, they send you a code. Big zip file (7.5mb) so I think a warning should be given to those with dialup maybe.
For 6 dollars, I'm not disappointed. Looking through this has given me a little incentive to start building more. My son and I are going to have some fun this weekend doing this "mission".
I'll probably buy the next one just to encourage whoever these people are to keep doing them.

I saw one of your bots from your book, The Mayan Adventure in the Teaser. Grabberbot.
I just posted my version of StringBot to NXTLog, look for it soon. I called it BonzoBot.

The History of Square Dancing, published by S. Foster Damon in 1957, is one of the few books that presents a broad picture of the subject. The book was a reprint of his 1952 article published in the Proceedings of the American Antiquarian Society.
Dance caller and researcher Fred Feild summarizes Damon's main points about the development of squares in the 19th century in this section of his square dance history blog.
Damon introduces his topic: "Today in America we find ourselves in a great period of square-dancing. These old American folk-dances, which have never died out, have revived and spread from backwoods and mountains and plains into the cities again. Yet nothing seems to be known whence they came originally and how they developed into what they are. For some years now, I have been gathering information from old dancebooks, town-histories, travellers' chronicles, newspapers, novels of the old times, even poetry and sheet-music, with results which have fitted together into an outline-history of this forgotten phase of our culture.
He summarizes his results thus:
In the over-all survey, three different styles emerged: the southern, the north-eastern, and the western.
The South concentrates on the circle-dances, the "running sets" as they call them. (In the north, they are called the "Soldier's Joy," and are used as mixers.) In 1916, Cecil J. Sharp discovered these circle-dances in Kentucky; in spite of French calls and Irish tunes, he supposed them to be very, very early English, apparently on the grounds that nothing like them had survived in England. Of course, they could not have existed before the invention of calling. The running set has no fixed pattern; all depends on what the caller thinks of next.
In the North-East, the squares are based on swinging, and include the noisy kick-balance. The contras also have been preserved; there are still communities which dance little else. Ralph Page, the expert caller, has done much to spread them; it is said that they are beginning to be found outside New England again.
In the West, the squares are faster than in the East, and are more complicated. Where the easterner would swing, the westerner is content with a do-pa-so. 43 A number of other new figures would seem to have originated here.
But wherever it is found, the American square-dance has grown from its historical roots into something like nothing to be found elsewhere in the world. It has the advantages of being both a survival (in the country) and a revival (in the city)-the living, free tradition of the one combined with the enthusiasm of the other. It is living, in the sense that it is growing, developing. The variety of patterns is already extraordinary. Yet they all follow more or less the pattern of popular song: introduction, four stanzas, chorus, and an occasional coda. Where the old squares would combine a couple of motifs and call it a number, the modern squaare uses a single motif and develops it. The result is an artistic unity that did not exist before. And as the modern generation is frankly athletic, the dances are quite vigorous.
43- Originally miscalled a "do-si-do," it has acquired a variety of different names in the past few years. The step consists of a left-hand round your partner, right-hand round your corner, and repeat as long as the caller calls it.

Protecting Life Where Death is Everyday ConversationPosted on Friday, October 5th, 2012 at 9:11 am
By Megan Christensen, Health Officer, Concern Worldwide US
I have been lucky to visit many of the countries where Concern Worldwide works. In my travels, I met many people and witnessed many things, some inspiring and some heartbreaking.
My most recent trip to Sierra Leone was no different.
Sierra Leone is a country emerging from ten years of civil war and armed conflict. I saw commitment to work from the ground-up to rebuild. The people are positive and hopeful. The government is active and forward-thinking. I was there last February, and in a year and a half, I have seen progress.
This is partly because of an initiative that the government took in 2010 to provide free health care to women and children. Today, more women and children are accessing health care, and more of them are aware of when and how to access it.
However, there are still major challenges. Some clinics still struggle with having a steady stream of supplies, like antibiotics. We still don't have all the information we need to understand why people are dying and what they are getting sick from. For example, we know that 60 percent of births are happening in birth facilities, in the presence of a trained birth attendant, but that's only half the picture. Where is the other 40 percent giving birth? Who is with them? Why did they not go to a health facility?

Monday Morning Offering - 56
Image: George Mendoza
Good morning, good God!
There are times, Lord,
when we think we don't now how to pray,
when we can't find the words to say,
when we wonder if we pray "the right way..."
How did we become so misinformed
about something so important, Lord?
When did we begin to think of prayer
as a rare gift? a specialized skill?
an art we haven't mastered?
How did we come to forget that every
thought, sigh, hope, cry, word of ours
sounds in your ear and touches your heart
as soon and as surely as any saint's
pure and perfect prayer?
And help us to trust
that simply sitting in your presence,
... in silence ...
is a prayer whose eloquence delights you...
Our very desire to pray, Lord,
is a sign you're already with us:
nudging our hearts to trust you're near;
inviting us to voice and vent
joys and sorrows, hopes and hurts
known to you long before
we even thought to pray...
Before they have a word to say
even infants speak a prayer:
cooing, mumbling, sputtering forth
their stories of wonder, hunger, fear, joy
and their desire to be held
by mothers and fathers who hear in every sound
the beauty of a prayer that has no words...
Be mother and father to us, Lord,
and hear our prayer...
We offer you this morning
the prayers we sputter from our souls:
prayers that have no words
and prayers that have too many words;
prayers we sob upon your breast
and prayers we sing from happy hearts;
prayers that rise from our confusion,
still prayers you understand so well...
We offer you every thought, sigh,
hope, cry and word of ours
that pleads and pulses from within:
let the beating prayer of our hearts
be heard and held in your heart of hearts
for surely, Lord, that is the right way to pray...
Receive our morning offering, Lord,
and keep us mindful in prayer
of the joys and sorrows, hopes and hurts
of those whose paths cross ours this day...
Good God of Monday mornings,
hear our prayer this day
and every day this week...
Lord, hear us!
Lord graciously hear us!

What a wonderful expression of the many ways we can find the sacred & prayerful in the ordinary!
- July 20, 2009 at 11:21 AM
Another wonderful Monday, thank you!...4 years ago I began this practice of "sitting in the gaze of God" it was my try at contemplation and the desire to be nearer.
At first I felt I was failing miserably because I could not quiet my mind. Then it came to me that the very sitting was the prayer. It has taken time to grow in faith but it has become my favorite way to start a day, accepting the gift of being a beloved under God's gaze! There has been no better prayer than to simply, lovingly BE!
- July 20, 2009 at 11:37 AM
The thing that really helped me to pray more was attending daily Mass. It's a jump start into prayer life. I know that at Holy Family, a dedicated volunteer has arranged for visiting priests to celebrate daily Mass for several years now. I believe this has helped keep the spiritual life of the parish strong. (They also say the Rosary!)

I was always in a hurry to pray. To get it done. To do my duty. To check it off the spiritual "to do" list. This left me empty and uninspired. Now...I savor the time spent in prayer. Not only saying the words...speaking the heart...but listening...in silence...or to others...through scripture...or even a blog! Thanks Father...
- July 20, 2009 at 7:03 PM
Beautifully written, powerfully true - the mumbles are enough, the tears are poignant, the willingness is all.

I was walking and heard a baby crying from a distance- I could see the baby, but not details-
I thought of your words "...even infants speak a prayer..."
I knew that God heard this baby's cry...
it gave me new perspective...

Every fan knows about Mike Mamula and Tony Mandarich, we all know how they tore up the Combine but then bombed in the Nation Football League. However, they are not the only two players who have crashed and burned. Every year, before the NFL Draft, the League herds former college players into a stadium in Indianapolis like cattle. Once there, they work out, they're proded, tested and tested some more.However, at the Combine, it's all about the physical and mental part of the game. You can't really test a player's heart or predict the future. And sometimes the future isn't so good.

Now they're saying it's just a release. Well then, big difference, enjoy your one AXS main event before getting called back on short notice tree stump.
good for the ufc
Well, this actually made me happy. I hate to say it because this is someones livelihood and he truly was a talented fighter but I have always hated him because i perceived him as a dirty fighter.
Also in your previous post you make it sound like he should wait for the ref to pry him off instead of stopping once the reg first touches him and says stop.
I don't think that this particular incident was bad enough to warrant a cut, but I can see how all of his previous incidents could push it that way.
Imo, if a fighters wants to hold onto a submission till the ref jumps in, I'm usually ok with that, but if the guy taps, they should be mentally ready to let go once the ref comes in. They need to be ready for the ref to come in and be aware of the refs when they do. It's sad that it is taking Palhares so many incidents to learn this. And gosh damn, it's not like Pierce's taps were sneaky, there was no way he could deny that he tapped out. If you see the other fighter clearly tapping and screaming, let go of the damn lock, there are like 5 cameras recording from every angle, they will see him tap your leg 10 times.
Paul harris did a very bad thing and got what he had coming. MMA should also be about discipline. But if we are going to jump on Paul Harris's ass about holding a hold too long, then what about guys like Hendo? His flying forearm on an obviously unconscious opponent, and he even admitted he knew Bisping was out. How about the countless times we'd seen a guy continue to punch an unconscious opponent in the face on the ground, after he knocked him out on the feet? Yeah the rules allow that, but come on? Isn't that basically the same thing? What happens when one of those guys don't wake up after taking extra shots? I say it's good the UFC takes a stand, but don't stop there. If NFL linebackers have to be in control of their bodies while they are hurling their 300 lb frames at offensive players, then why shouldn't we demand the same kind of discipline from "martial artists"?
But it does suck to see one of the best submission fighters in the world go out like that. I think he goes to Japan or fights in Brazil.
Scarface: Fuck you, fuck you, fuck you, you're cool, and fuck you, I'm out!
"I don't call the fighting in my films 'violent', I call it 'action'. An action film borders between fantasy and reality. If I were to be completely realistic in my films, you would call me a violent, bloody man. I would simply destroy my opponent by tearing his guts out. I wouldn't do it so artistically." ~Bruce Lee

Sure, we love the look of our Corvettes. Who among us hasn't glanced at the reflection of his or her car in a store window while driving by? Yet what really gets the heart pumping is the car's performance--specifically, the acceleration and handling. Add the sound as the throttle plates open and the revs explode on a lusty V-8, and a grin inevitably forms on your face.
Enjoying all that performance can be difficult on the street, however. There are financial considerations, like the aftershock of a radar-gun encounter. And, perhaps more important, there are safety considerations to keep in mind: Sand, leaves, or black ice on corners; vehicles crossing the centerline; or a tractor pulling out with a load of hay on a seemingly deserted rural road can all put an end to your performance driving session in a hurry.
The solution to all of these problems is track time. There's no radar, everyone goes in the same direction, and you won't ever have to worry about unpleasant surprises from sandy corners, farm animals, drunk drivers, or pedestrians. Best of all, you'll spend the day (or more) going as fast as you want in the company of like-minded people. It's as much fun as a married person can have (only kidding, honey).
If you're among the millions of people who watch auto racing and are thinking about getting out on a racetrack to have some fun, read on. There are plenty of options, each with its own set of risks and advantages. We'll start with the Sports Car Driving Association (SCDA) because it's a good example of exactly what we're talking about.
The SCDA lets you take your own car out on exciting racetracks at a low price. And it's safe. This track time is non-competitive, so there is no racing per se, and novices must ride with an instructor. But there are plenty of opportunities for high-performance driving, with 300 events per year at a number of famous racetracks.
The track I drove on was Lime Rock Park. Nestled in the rolling, wooded hills of northwestern Connecticut, Lime Rock is about as scenic as a motoring venue can be. And for those who don't wish to be on track, the venue provides many opportunities for spectators. The historic-car races are a favorite of mine. Seeing and hearing race cars from every decade roar out from the pits and around the track is a visceral treat. You can even head into the pits for up-close inspections of everything from air-cooled three-wheelers to Aston Martins, famous racing Corvettes, and former Trans-Am cars.
The area around Lime Rock Park is picturesque New England, with plenty of B&Bs, antique stores, and non-chain restaurants to choose from. In addition to Lime Rock, SCDA offers track-time events at other desirable destinations such as Watkins Glen and Monticello Motor Club (New York), Thunderbolt and Lightning (New Jersey), and New Hampshire Motor Speedway.
The requirements are minimal. Drivers must be 18 and have a valid license. Participants must wear a Snell SA2000 (or newer) helmet, along with long-sleeved shirts and pants. The car can be any make, modified or not, but be aware that there are noise limits at several tracks. Convertibles must have a factory hardtop or a rollbar, and all cars need to pass a tech inspection before going on the track. SCDA even offers race-prepped Spec Miatas to rent for track days.
The day starts with registration, after which each student is assigned to a specific group. A driver with limited or no track driving experience goes in the novice group. There are also two intermediate groups and an advanced group for seasoned track drivers. All drivers gather in a morning meeting to learn the day's events. Then the various groups rotate on and off the track throughout the day.
Total track time is usually about two hours, interspersed with "chalk talks" and classroom sessions. Classroom instruction covers such topics as vehicle dynamics, threshold braking, and line theory. Although guests can't ride as passengers on the track, they can attend the classroom sessions. The instructors include professional race drivers, regional and national champions, and even specialists in specific marques.

Shortly after the "all-new" '55 Chevrolet took the American public by storm, GM was poised to take full advantage of the successes they'd achieved with that model year. The design genius of Harley Earl and technical wizardry of Chief Engineer Edward Coles were again put to the test by trying to best an already nearly perfect (for the time) design.
By 1956, Harley Earl's flashy styling advances had significantly impacted the motoring public, as well as Chevrolet. The new design had folks clamoring, and in 1956 Chevrolet gave them even more of what they craved. Additional and flashier two-tone paint designs, liberal doses of chrome plating, and an increase in available models were just a few of the expanded offerings. The '56 model year also debuted two "dashing" new four-door sport sedans-the Bel Air and "Two-Ten" series. Good news for wagon fanciers came in the way of a pair of nine-passenger station wagons-the Bel Air Beauville and the "Two-Ten" Beauville.
The whole new series of Chevrolets boasted a bold, new full-width grille design, hooded headlights, rectangular parking lights, redesigned front fenders and rear quarter-panels, sweeping side trim, and redesigned taillights with a concealed fuel filler discreetly hidden behind the driver-side taillamp. Add the aforementioned new two-tone paint schemes and colors and fresh new interior offerings, and you had the final styling touches that set the '56s apart from their prior year counterparts.
For the performance-minded public, the '56 Chevrolet offered three 265ci Turbo-Fire V-8 engine options: base 170hp (162hp with a manual trans), 205hp 4-bbl, and the 225hp dual 4-bbl. That lineup of engines gave Chevrolet buyers the widest powerplant selection in the company's history. In addition to the engine choices available in 1956, there were also three transmission options: the Powerglide, Touch-Down Overdrive, and the conventional Synchro-Mesh three-speed. It's also important to note that in that very year Chevrolet set the Pike's Peak record in a pre-production '56, powered by a Super Turbo-Fire V-8.
All in all, the '56 Chevy wound up as the nucleus of the historic Tri-Five trio, and will forever be a favorite of many a Chevy enthusiast. Happy Birthday to an automotive icon. Long live the '56 Chevy!

Do you take aspirin or acetaminophen for all your headaches? For some types of headaches, that's not the best approach. Here's why.
Your head hurts. Again! The first step in thwarting your recurring headaches is to determine what type you have. Sometimes headaches are a symptom of another disease or condition. In other cases, no clear cause can be found.
To better understand your headaches, take a close look at your signs and symptoms. To aid in diagnosis, your doctor may suggest you keep a headache diary in which you note when your headaches occur, what your signs and symptoms are and any triggers you can identify.
Tension-type headaches, the most common variety of headaches:
Most intermittent tension-type headaches are easily treated with over-the-counter medications, including:
In addition, alternative therapies aimed at stress reduction may help. They include:
Migraines affect three times more women than men. Migraines:
Migraine treatment is aimed at relieving symptoms and preventing additional attacks. If you know what triggers your migraines, avoiding those triggers will help prevent headaches. Treatment may include:
Cluster headaches, which are rare, occur off and on for weeks at a time. At least one episode usually occurs at the same time of day or night. During a cluster period, which can last for several months, you may experience one or more cluster headaches a day. These headaches, which occur more often in men than in women and more often in smokers:
Because the pain of a cluster headache strikes suddenly and may subside quickly, over-the-counter pain relievers aren't effective. Steps that may help include:
Chronic daily headaches are headaches that occur 15 days or more a month. The term encompasses different types of headaches that are characterized by their frequency and duration. The signs, symptoms and time frame vary depending on the type of headaches you have, and the pattern of signs and symptoms may change over time. An accurate description of your headache symptoms will help your doctor diagnose your condition and determine the best course of treatment.
Treatment for any underlying diseases or conditions often stops chronic daily headaches. When no underlying diseases or conditions are present, treatment focuses on preventive medication.

About Anise...
This annual herb, native to the Mediterranean region, is an ancient spice cultivated by the Egyptians and later by the Greeks and Arabs. The early Arabic name for Anise was "anysum" from which the present day name is derived. In the ninth century, Anise was grown on royal British estates and became of such value that its import was taxed.
Today Anise grows around the world in temperate regions. It is commonly used as a liqueur flavoring, a spice, and a great tea with a slight Licorice taste and aroma.
It all starts with the herbs. Celebration Herbals is dedicated to bringing you the best tasting teas, grown and processed as close to "the way nature intended" as possible and never irradiated.
Our herbs are grown and harvested with the highest standards of quality control. You can trust our new special designations - Certified Organic, Ethically Wildcrafted, and Pure Quality.
We are committed to the environment. In this box you won't find any strings, tags, or staples in our chlorine free bags. In addition, our boxes are made from 100% recycled board. A resealable freshness bag is used to extend the quality and life of your tea.
We hope you enjoy the beneficial pleasure of drinking these teas as much as we have enjoyed blending, hand crafting and packaging them for you.
Herbally Yours,
Celebration Herbals
Suggested Use
- Good water is an essential part of brewing a great cup of tea. We recommend using spring or filtered water.
- Be sure to relax! Some of the most enjoyable aspects of tea are the calmness and ritual that surround it.
- This is a delicate herb and is more potent when exposed to high temperatures for a short period of time. So that your tea has its maximum medicinal properties and flavor, be sure that your water is at a rolling boil when you pour it over your teabags.
- If you desire a medicinal tea, be sure to use one tea bag per cup of boiling water, cover and steep for 7-12 minutes. This is known as the infusion method.
- If you desire a pleasure tea or quick brew, use on teabag per cup of hot water. Pour water over teabags, cover, and let steep 3 to 5 minutes to taste. Enjoy!
Certified Organic anise seed (pimpinella anisum)
No flavorings, preservatives or sweeteners of any kind.

I'm trying to install Ubuntu from a bootable USB drive. If I run Ubuntu from the drive, I can successfully mount both of my physical drives:
Drive 1 is in 3 partitions: 8GB for recovery, 400GB for Windows 8 install, 550GB empty partition formatted to NTFS
Drive 2 is in one single 500GB partition formatted to NTFS and used for media storage
All files are accessible and things run as expected. When I try to install Ubuntu, however, and choose the option to "Install side by side with Windows 8", the installer only lists Drive 2. I really want to install the OS to the empty partition on Drive 1. Beyond going into the "Something Else" option and manually selecting to install the OS to the partition (it sees it there) and then hopefully putting the bootloader on the right partition, is there a way to get the automatic method to detect my drive appropriately?

Lately I have been reading a lot of published slave narratives. These are not to be confused with the WPA slave narratives from the 1930s that many of us are familiar with. I am referring to slave narratives that were written and published from the mid 1800's through the mid 1900s by slaves and former slaves, many of which who had fled slavery. These are books that were were popular during that timeframe, especially as a part of the burgeoning anti-slavery movement. We probably know about the most popular, like Booker T. Washington's Up From Slavery and Frederick Douglass' autobiography. But I think we forget—I know I did—that this is primary information out of the mouths of slaves, and also that there were hundreds more like this published.
The University of North Carolina has a wonderful online collection entitled "North American Slave Narratives." It is apart of the collection entitled "Documenting the American South." In the Slave Narratives, they have collected and displayed all the known existing slave narratives, including pamphlets and articles through 1920. I had seen this collection many times over the years, but never dove in and explored it further. The other day I started reading them, and got so engrossed in the stories I stayed online for 3 hours! They are very detailed, and I realized that these could be a terrific resource for part of the write-up of my family.
My Prather family was from Montgomery County, MD (they are shown above in the picture on this blog). I have mentioned here before that I am focusing on writing up the various lines of my research, fully and properly sourced, and getting them out to the relevant repositories. So, I went to UNC's collection and found the story of a man named Josiah Henson who was enslaved in Montgomery County.
His claim to fame is that he is credited as being the prototype for the lead character in Harriet Beecher Stowe's infamous book Uncle Tom's Cabin. Josiah escaped from slavery and later became an abolitionist and a minister. I was able to utilize the following descriptions from his narrative, published in 1849, "The Life of Josiah Henson, Formerly a Slave, Now an Inhabitant of Canada, as Narrated by Himself" :
[My master was] coarse and vulgar in his habits, unprincipled and cruel in his general deportment, and especially addicted to the vice of licentiousness. His slaves had little opportunity for relaxation from wearying labor, were supplied with the scantiest means of sustaining their toil by necessary food, and had no security for personal rights… The principal food of those upon my master's plantation consisted of corn meal, and salt herrings; to which was added in summer a little buttermilk, and the few vegetables which each might raise for himself and his family, on the little piece of ground which was assigned to him for the purpose, called a truck patch. The meals were two, daily…"
He continues with his description. Doesn't this first-hand account make the experiences of my ancestors come alive just a little bit more?
I cannot believe I have not made better use of this resource in the past 13 years. When you have some time, peruse the UNC website and read through some of the pages of the various narratives. Perhaps you can find someone who grew up in your ancestor's state, or better yet, their same county.
UNC's entire collection is extraordinarily valuable, and a separate collection that I found useful was the one entitled "First Person Narratives of the American South". This collection encompasses all Southerners, white and black, and I found some of the diaries of slaveowners and their wives to be very eye-opening. For example, Elizabeth Pringle, daughter of a prominent South Carolina planter had a book published about her life growing up on a southern rice plantation called A Woman Rice Planter. Here's a tip for this collection: Browse by subject, and under the heading African-Americans, you'll find a sorting of the narratives by state.) Other standouts in the online UNC DocSouth collections include:
The Church in the Southern Black Community
Oral Histories of the American South
North Carolina Maps
I am always on the lookout for ways to enrich the story of my ancestor's lives, as well as educate myself on the topic even further. These narratives are rich reading, even as they relayed horrific realities. Kudos to UNC, and I hope visit and do research one day, as I've heard their library/archives is one of the best in the South.

Casey Beidel '13 has a unique perspective on Wilson College. He is a male student the same age as most College for Women students. And he has thrived.
The son of a Wilson administrator, Beidel is enrolled through the College's employee provision and has strong family ties to Wilson: his mother, Patty, and two sisters, Jennifer and Emilee, are graduates. But when it was his turn to decide on a college, Beidel's first choice was not Wilson. He enrolled in a nearby, highly respected liberal arts institution. Although he enjoyed the classes and instructors, something was missing. He didn't feel welcome.
"It was like walking into a fraternity where the whole college was the fraternity," said Beidel, who felt like an outsider.
After discussing it with his family, Beidel decided to transfer to Wilson for his sophomore year. Initially, he struggled with the feeling that he didn't quite fit in, but he soon became comfortable and began to flourish. Once at Wilson, Beidel discovered a hidden talent for creative writing. He settled on English as his major and mapped out a course for his future. Last spring, he was named the Disert Scholar, an honor reserved for the student with the best honors thesis proposal.
Beidel says he couldn't have done it without the nurturing and supportive environment at Wilson, where he has embraced every challenge and come to appreciate a liberal arts education.
Beidel credits English professor Larry Shillock for awakening his appreciation of literature. It was Shillock's interpretation of John Cheever's short story, "The Swimmer," that triggered Beidel's imagination. "That story in particular became much different when I re-read it," he said. "I realized there was something deeper to it. … You start looking at things in a different way and your brain starts thinking differently."
Beidel's adviser, Dr. Michael Cornelius, has become a role model, helping him craft a plan for his future — continue on to graduate school, become a college instructor, while writing his own brand of fiction, a newly born genre called New Wave Fabulism.
"Instead of being just one number on a big grid of people who don't care about you, I feel like I got the attention here I needed," he said. "If my adviser had 50 other people, I wouldn't have felt that. It wouldn't be the same if I didn't have the personal relationships that I do here."

NM PBS Commemorates 100th Anniversary of Titanic Disaster
With Programs Airing April 1 – 22
NM PBS will commemorate the 100th anniversary of the sinking of the Titanic, the deadliest peacetime maritime disaster in history, with three *new* programs scheduled for April 2012. Each program provides a unique perspective on the April 14, 1912, disaster — from historical drama to science to personal stories of the effect of the tragedy on the descendants of those who perished and those who survived.
NOVA "Why Ships Sink"
Ch. 5.1 – Wednesday, 4/18 at 8:00 pm & Sunday. 4/22 at 11:00 am
Ch. 9.1 – Saturday , 4/21 at 7:00 pm
Are you safe aboard a modern cruise ship? Twenty million passengers embark on cruises each year, vacationing in deluxe "floating cities" that offer everything from swimming pools to shopping malls to ice skating rinks. And the ships just keep getting bigger: The average cruise ship has doubled in size in just the last ten years. Some engineers fear that these towering behemoths are dangerously unstable, and the recent tragedy of the Costa Concordia has raised new questions about their safety. Now, NOVA brings together marine engineering and safety experts to reconstruct the events that led up to famous cruise disasters, including the ill-fated Concordia, the Sea Diamond, and the Oceanos. Are we really safe at sea-or are we on the brink of a 21st century Titanic?
THE ICEBERG THAT SUNK THE TITANIC – New!
Ch. 5.1 – Thursday 4/19 at 9:00 pm
The untold story behind the world's most famous shipwreck…Could a tiny, fragile snow flake that fell over 100,000 years ago be responsible for one of the greatest disasters in living memory?
From the surging glacier that created it to its date with destiny on 14th April 1912, the journey of the iceberg that sank the ship they said was unsinkable is retraced in this beautiful and often surprising film.
Many millennia ago, a snowflake landed at the head of a glacier in the Arctic Circle.
In an instant, it turned from a symbol of purity to an agent of death as it triggered the
creation of an iceberg – spat from the tongue of the mother glacier and into the ocean.
Cameras explore every face of this monstrous glacier, revealing an arterial network of
melt-water rivers and frozen masses of rocks and vegetation suspended in the ice, and
also the nature of the iceberg. There is a duality to its character. Long before it was a
life-taker, it was home to an abundance of arctic wildlife.
Passing down through the Arctic Circle and into the North Atlantic, the iceberg was
set on an unstoppable collision course that would result in over 1400 deaths. Were
warnings heeded? Could the crew of the Titanic have done more to save the
passengers – perhaps using the iceberg as a giant lifeboat?
These questions can be answered with the aid of hindsight. But what of modern
debate? Could this type of disaster ever happen again? Returning to the final
resting place of the iceberg that sunk the Titanic, deep below the surface of the Atlantic
Ocean, this film searches for clues in the deposits left by icebergs on the sea
bed. With rising global temperatures, could a new generation of 'mega-bergs' be set to
plague the busy shipping lanes?

For two decades, the Toyota Camry was virtually unchallenged for the title of America's favorite mid-size sedan, but that era is over. Barbarians are at the gate armed with better styling, newer technology, and superior fuel economy. The 2012 Camry intends to turn them back with an all-new design and thoroughly revised mechanicals. The transformation is most readily apparent inside, where the hard, tan plastics have given way to stitched leather and chrome accents. The new exterior design still plays to conservative tastes but is no longer bland. Unlike some of its newest competitors, the Camry still offers a V-6. The familiar 3.5-liter engine, despite mild fuel economy gains, gives up 4 mpg on the highway to the Hyundai Sonata's more powerful 2.0-liter turbocharged four-cylinder. The six is still worth considering, though, as it's perhaps the smoothest engine in the segment. The four-cylinder and hybrid powertrains both post gains as well, with the Hybrid likely to achieve an impressive 41 mpg combined. We're most surprised--and pleasantly so--by how the new Camry drives, particularly the Hybrid. The soupy handling, artificial steering, bouncy ride, grabby brakes, and clumsy throttle response we complained about have all vanished without a trace. The electric power steering (now fitted to all Camrys) is precise and almost natural, the brake pedal feels as good as any hybrid's, and the suspension tuning is nothing short of a revelation. The top-level SE serves up surprisingly balanced handling from its firmer suspension and heavier steering.
