The Pious Infidel
Thomas Jefferson and his drive to 'rescue' Jesus
Modern conservatives who can't bear to think that the Declaration of Independence was written by a Bible-defacer have spread the rumor that Thomas Jefferson created his own Bible as an ethical guide to civilize American Indians. The so-called 'Jefferson Bible' was really a tool to introduce the teachings of Jesus to the Indians," declared Rev. D. James Kennedy. Actually, Jefferson's editing of the Bible flowed directly from a well-thought out, long-stewing view that Christianity had been fundamentally corrupted -by the Apostle Paul, the early church, the great Protestant reformers like Martin Luther and John Calvin, and by nearly the entire clerical class for more than a millennium. Secularists love to point to the Jefferson Bible as evidence of his heathen nature; but that misses the point, too. Jefferson was driven to edit the Bible the way a parent whose child was kidnapped is driven to find the culprit. Jefferson loved Jesus and was attempting to rescue him.
Most historians who study the Declaration of Independence and Jefferson's ideas look to the philosophers who influenced him most, some emphasizing John Locke, others the Scot, Frances Hutcheson. And there's no question that these men shaped Jefferson's approach to knowledge, reason and freedom of religion. But read through Jefferson's writings on faith and one finds not only an erudite philosophy but a deep rage. To understand his views on liberty, we must tap into this fury. Jefferson believed that a secret to religious freedom was destroying the concept of heresy, the crime of expressing unauthorized religious thought. And he cared deeply - personally, passionately - about heresy because, in the context of his times, Thomas Jefferson was a heretic, and wanted to live in a nation that tolerated men like him.
Diamonds and Dung
Jefferson had studied early Christian history and was particularly influenced by Joseph Priestley's book, The History of the Corruptions of Christianity, which he read "over and over again." In Jefferson's view, Christianity was ruined almost from the start. "But a short time elapsed after the death of the great reformer of the Jewish religion, before his principles were departed from by those who professed to be his special servants, and perverted into an engine for enslaving mankind, and aggrandizing their oppressors in church and state." The authors of the canonical Gospels were "ignorant, unlettered men" who laid "a groundwork of vulgar ignorance, of things impossible, of superstitions, fanaticisms, and fabrications." The Apostle Paul made things worse. "Of this band of dupes and imposters, Paul was the great Corypheaues, and first corrupter of the doctrines of Jesus."
Then, the Council of Nicea and other clerical bodies designed elaborate doctrines that abandoned Jesus and brought great harm to the world, Jefferson believed. Take, for instance, the concept of the Trinity. "Ideas must be distinct before reason can act upon them; and no man ever had a distinct idea of the trinity," he declared. "It is mere Abracadabra of the mountebanks calling themselves the priests of Jesus" and the "hocus-pocus phantasm of a god like another Cerberus, with one body and three heads." The immaculate conception was preposterous, too, Jefferson believed, and would some day be "classed with the fable of the generation of Minerva in the brain of Jupiter."
The Protestant reformation made things no better. John Calvin stressed the idea of predestination - that God chose some to be saved and how they behaved couldn't alter their fate. This idea - at the heart of the faiths practiced by a majority of Americans at the time - disgusted Jefferson. "Calvinism has introduced into the Christian religion more new absurdities than its leader [Jesus] had purged it of old ones," he explained. What would have been the proper response to the "insanities of Calvin"? The "strait jacket alone was their proper remedy." Like Adams, what bothered Jefferson most about this philosophy is that it undermined morality. Any religion that eliminated good behavior as the path to salvation merited no respect, and any god that picked the favored few without considering the lives they led was an imposter, in Jefferson's view. Therefore, he said, Calvin "was indeed an atheist, which I can never be; or rather his religion was Daemonism. If ever man worshiped a false god, he did."
Jefferson did not believe Jesus was divine. "That Jesus did not mean to impose himself on mankind as the son of god physically speaking I have been convinced by the writings of men more learned than myself," he wrote. But he added that Jesus "might conscientiously believe himself inspired from above," since his milieu of Judaism stressed that leadership was invariably based on divine revelation and he might have breathed "the fumes of the most disordered imaginations."
The entire ministerial class - the "priests," as he called all clergy and theologians - was pervasively corrupt, having a vested interest in making Christianity opaque. "Sweep away their gossamer fabrics of fictitious religion, and they would catch no more flies." The history of clerical leadership was a relentless, obsessive and wicked focus on peripheral matters for the purpose of dividing and oppressing -- "vestments, ceremonies, physical opinions, and metaphysical speculations, totally unconnected with morality, and unimportant to the legitimate objects of society." He noted the centuries of bloodshed justified in the name of the Prince of Peace, declaring that Protestant catechisms and creeds have "made of Christendom a slaughter-house, and at this day divides it into castes of inextinguishable hatred to one another." Year after year, priests managed to take the "purest system of morals ever before preached to man," and twist it into a "mere contrivance to filch wealth and power to themselves." He was convinced that the obfuscation was often deliberate, since the "mild and simple" principles of Jesus require little explanation. Priests therefore had to "sophisticate it, ramify it, split it into hairs, and twist its texts till they cover the divine morality of it's author with mysteries, and require a priesthood to explain them."
To an extent rarely acknowledged, Jefferson also despised Jews - or at least the Jews of the Old Testament and the religion it seemed to spawn. The "vicious ethics" of the Jews were "irreconcilable with the sound dictates of reason & morality," encouraged poor relationships between people and were downright "repulsive and anti-social, as respecting other nations." When he began to sketch out a "syllabus" about the life of Jesus, Jefferson explained that the Jewish god bore attributes that "were degrading and injurious." Moses was depicted as "cruel, vindictive, capricious and unjust." Though his negative attitude about Judaism seemed mostly confined to antiquity, he occasionally revealed an up-to-date bias. Referring to irksome New England federalists, Jefferson declared that "they are marked, like the Jews, with such a perversity of character, as to constitute, from that circumstance, the natural division of our parties. " Referring to the Quaker tendency to support the British, he said contemptuously, "dispersed, as the Jews, they still form, as those do, one nation, foreign to the land they live in."
In contrast to John Adams, Jefferson was convinced that organized religion invariably opposed freedom. "In every country and in every age, the priest has been hostile to liberty," he said. The dynamic repeated itself throughout history: unable to spread their principles through persuasion, religious leaders instead rely on the power and support of the state, in exchange for offering the ruler the legitimacy and moral authority of the church. "He is always in alliance with the despot, abetting his abuses in return for protection to his own." These alliances of government and clergy - a "loathsome combination of church and state" -- have brutalized the people throughout history. While James Madison focused on the threat to religion from government, Jefferson wrote more about the effects of religion, and religious leaders, on government, not only in ancient history but contemporary America. By getting themselves "ingrafted into the machine of government," he said, the New England clergy "have been a very formidable engine against the civil and religious rights of man." The priesthood discouraged thinking, which was essential for Republicanism, so a powerful church hierarchy -- especially one entangled with or supported by government - was a great threat to liberty.
The more one reads Jefferson railing against the "priests," the more one is struck by how personal it seems. It is not merely Jesus who was maligned by the priests, but Jefferson. The opinions reviewed above - against the trinity, the virgin birth, the divinity of Christ, Calvin, etc - were violently at odds with orthodox Christianity in Jefferson's time. And Jefferson was conscious of how the clerical class punished such heresies. In Notes on the State of Virginia, for instance, he reviewed the penal laws governing religious belief. "According to an act of 1705, those who don't believe in the Trinity or that scriptures are of 'divine authority' are punishable in the first instance by being banned from holding public office; on the second, a father may lose custody of his children and be sentenced to three years in jail." It was after summarizing these horrors, that Jefferson wrote the words that would get him in trouble during the 1800 presidential election: "The legitimate powers of government extend to such acts only as are injurious to others. But it does me no injury for my neighbour to say there are twenty gods, or no god. It neither picks my pocket nor breaks my leg."
I'm certainly not arguing that Jefferson wanted to change the laws because he feared imminent arrest. But I do believe that for him, the idea that people with unorthodox views should be tolerated was no mere abstraction. During the 1800 campaign, the "genus irritable vatum"- the "irritable tribe of priests" -- were "all in arms against me" and "printing lying pamphlets against me" and spreading "absolute falsehoods." They wanted to preserve or extend their religious establishments - government support of religion - and Jefferson opposed them. "They believe that any portion of power confided to me, will be exerted in opposition to their schemes. And they believe rightly; for I have sworn upon the altar of god, eternal hostility against every form of tyranny over the mind of man."
Indeed, after reading several letters in which he describes how Jesus was maltreated by the priestly class and other letters in which Jefferson describes how he was abused by the clergy, one cannot help but wonder whether Jefferson identified his own plight with that of the earlier misunderstood sage. In August 1801, soon after the bruising election, Jefferson wrote to his attorney general, Levi Lincoln, about how the New England clergy was showing him "no mercy." Unselfconsciously, he declared that while "they crucified their Savior," the "laws of the present day withhold their hands from blood" - but that "lies and slander remain to them." Was he writing about Jesus, or himself, when he declared: "The office of reformer of the superstitions of a nation is ever dangerous"? Jesus' efforts to reform religion, he said, were perilous. "A step to right or left might place him within the grip of the priests of the superstition, a blood thirsty race." Same for Jefferson.
Jefferson returned to the theme throughout his life. "I am not afraid of the priests," he wrote in 1816. "They have tried upon me all their various batteries, of pious whining, hypocritical canting, lying and slandering, without being able to give me one moment of pain." His counterattacks defended himself and Jesus at the same time. "I abuse the priests indeed," he wrote in 1815, "who have so much abused the pure and holy doctrines of their master, and who have laid me under no obligation to reticence as to the tricks of their trade. The genuine system of Jesus, and the artificial structure they have erected, to make them the instruments of wealth, power and pre-eminence to themselves, are as distinct things in my view as light and darkness: and while I have classed them with soothsayers and necramancer, I place him among the greatest of the reformers of morals, and scourges of priest-craft that have ever existed. They felt him as such, and never rested until they had silenced him by death."
While other philosophers, like Socrates, focused on how humans could govern their passions to procure "our own tranquility," Jesus forced people to connect to a larger whole. While the early Jews thought like a parochial tribe, Jesus extended the principles of neighborliness to "all mankind, gathering all into one family, under the bonds of love, charity, peace, common wants and common aids." Jewish law focused on actions, but Jesus "pushed his scrutinies into the heart of man; erected his tribunal in the region of his thoughts, and purified the waters at the fountain head." Moses had "bound the Jews to many idle ceremonies, mummeries, and observances, of no effect towards producing the social utilities which constitute the essence of virtue. Jesus exposed their futility and insignificance. The one instilled into his people the most anti-social spirit toward other nations; the other preached philanthropy and universal charity and benevolence." Though he did excise the miracles from the Bible, Jefferson praised Jesus for teaching "the belief of a future state." (Note, however, that Jefferson mostly applauded the idea of heaven's existence because of the practical effect it would have on temporal human behavior.)

Grilled Dessert Ideas
Few things say "summer" quite like firing up the grill, and while it makes perfect sense for that delicious piece of meat or that side dish, not very many people use it for the final course – dessert.

Diabetic-Friendly Dessert Options
People with diabetes have to be very careful about what they eat, and since almost 24 million Americans have type 1 or type 2 diabetes, that means a lot of us have to be concerned with what we put into our bodies. Having diabetes means many things; for some it means taking a medication, for others, it means monitoring blood sugar levels or injecting insulin. What it does not mean, however, is that your life has to be any less rich – or tasty. While you can buy sugar free cookies in most stores, here are some ideas for diabetic-friendly desserts that the whole family can enjoy. New York Style Cheesecake Cheesecake is the anti-diet food, isn't it? It can be. This creamy dessert is very rich, but the recipe can be modified to make it more health friendly for diabetics.

Donating to charity is a worthy action. But which charity? Would it surprise you to know that the criterion that is most often used to decide that question is also the most unreliable? Would it surprise you more to know that many charities are aware of how flawed the criterion is and play it like a violin?
A few months ago a friend of mine who runs an international relief agency phoned me complaining about another charity.
"Do you know what they're doing?" he fumed. "They're buying medicine in Canada for 10 cents a pill and booking the American retail cost of the medicine as an in-kind contribution. Do you know the retail value? Seven bucks a pill. They're padding their in-kind contributions by millions of dollars."

Transcript Staff
The Norman Transcript
NORMAN — Norman residents are encouraged to attend and wear green to show unity on April 3 at the state Capitol with an estimated 800 Oklahomans with disabilities and advocates for People with Disabilities Awareness Day 2013.
More than 577,000 Oklahomans — almost one in six — have disabilities, according to U.S. Census Bureau estimates.
The Oklahoma Department of Rehabilitation Services chose the theme "We are Oklahoma TOO" to emphasize that Oklahomans with disabilities include family, friends who have the same hopes, dreams, concerns and desire for success as their fellow citizens.
For 19 years, Awareness Day has provided people with disabilities and their advocates a unique opportunity to visit with Legislators and their staff about critical disability services that impact the quality of their lives and opportunities to reach employment and other goals.
Many participants find out who their legislators are in advance at www.capitolconnect.com/oklahoma/ and call for appointments. The State Senate phone number is 800-865-6490. The State House of Representatives is 800-522-8502.
"To stand united, we encourage participants to wear green, if possible," DRS Executive Director Michael O'Brien, Ed.D. said. "When decision makers at the state Capitol see a lot of people in the halls or rotundas all wearing disability-awareness green, our efforts have an even greater impact."
Last year, 664 people registered for this free event, which features more than 70 exhibitors on the second and fourth floor rotundas and performances by the Oklahoma School for the Blind Jazz Band and Oklahoma School for the Deaf Performing Arts Company.
Everyone is encouraged to pre-register online at www.okdrs.gov/pwdad/2013 to allow time to prepare materials in advance. Late registrations will be accepted the day of the event.
Parking will be available on the south side of the state Capitol at 2300 N. Lincoln in Oklahoma City. Accessible parking is located at the base of the south steps. Overflow parking is available at the Jim Thorpe Building west of Lincoln Blvd.
Awareness Day participants may enter the building at the accessible southeast entrance on the first floor. Every Capitol visitor is required to pass through a metal detector and run all purses and bags through an x-ray scanner.
Those who have pre-registered will speed through registration beginning at noon on the first floor. Legislative visits begin at 12:30 p.m. Experienced volunteers will be stationed in the halls to help first-time visitors who need help finding their legislators and others who need assistance.
For questions or more information, visit www.okdrs.gov/pwdad/2013 or phone 405-951-3478 or 800-845-8476.

A good idea is always worth borrowing, so when Artsplosure program director Terri Dollar saw street pianos in other cities, she knew she wanted the project here.
I thought it was the coolest thing, Dollar says. And part of the mission of Artsplosure is to do things that are imaginative, that enrich the community and that give a surprise. I thought That would go over in Raleigh big time!
And so began the origins of the Raleigh Street Piano Project, an art installation that puts pianos, whimsically painted by non-profit groups, on the streets for anyone to enjoy. The six pianos will be around downtown Raleigh in the courtyard at Marbles Kids Museum, on Lichtin Plaza (in front of Duke Energy Center for the Performing Arts) and City Plaza (on Fayetteville Street), at City Market and Moore Square and at the Municipal Building on Hargett Street for about two weeks.
There have been a few versions of the street piano project, but in general, its an international movement. Pianos have been on the streets of such cities as Salt Lake City, San Jose and Sao Paolo; Austin, Cincinnati, New York, London and Paris. (A 2011 version in Durham featured one man with a rolling piano.)
The Raleigh pianos were either donated or bought for next to nothing.
I became the Craiglist queen, Dollar says. Artsplosure wanted to engage groups that worked with people with disabilities or other challenges, so those groups or painted the pianos. The Community Music School, Arts Access and Triangle Community Work Force all participated. Artsplosure sponsored its own piano with the painting done by Enloe High school senior Henry Shearon. When the project is over, the groups have the option of keeping the pianos.
In some cities, Dollar says, musical combos have come to the pianos and held impromptu street performances, and couples have gotten engaged. Artsplosure is asking people to post interesting moments at the piano to its Facebook page.
Dollar believes the projects charms come from a variety of sources. Theres the delight of finding something typically in a concert hall or living room in an unexpected place, for one. And theres the accessibility of the instrument. The neat thing about a piano is that it can make beautiful sound just by pressing a key, she says. Its an invitation to the community to support the arts and play.
The Raleigh Street Piano Project isnt the only musical installation this year. Squonk Opera, a kid-friendly, loaded monster truck described as a musical street spectacle on wheels will land on City Plaza, starting Friday.
And then, theres the assortment of more traditional music talent on the various stages, culminating Sunday with a performance of the legendary reggae band, the Wailers.
How, then, should one sum up the 34th edition of Artsplosure?
Its a smackdown of music, Dollar says.
When: 11 a.m.-7 p.m. Saturday; 10 a.m.-5 p.m. Sunday.
Where: Downtown Raleigh, Moore Square and City Plaza.
Squonk Operas GO Roadshow!
When: Performances at 1 p.m., 4 p.m. and 7 p.m. Friday; 11 a.m., 1 p.m., 3 p.m. and 5 p.m. Saturday; noon, 2 p.m. and 4 p.m. Sunday.
Where: City Plaza, 400 block of Fayetteville Street.
Mini Mozarts
When: noon-5 p.m. Saturday and Sunday.
Where: Marbles Kids Museum, Main Courtyard, 201 E. Hargett St.

CENTER POINT — On paper, Pinson Valley's girls basketball team was supposed to fold up like a pup tent, and let second-ranked Center Point roll on through to the Class 5A Area 11 championship on its home court.
Apparently, the Indians didn't get the memo.
They not only stayed with the Eagles, they actually held a three-point lead at halftime. And it was fun — while it lasted.
And it lasted until the 3:34 mark of the third period, as Center Point went on a 21-0 run over nine minutes, on their way to a 56-30 victory in the title game Monday night.
The Eagles really got going when Keonna Farmer got on quite a roll. She scored five unanswered baskets in the last two minutes of the third quarter, which put Pinson away for good.
"She's an explosive player," Center Point coach Ulysses Haynes said. "Once she gets going, we like to keep going to her."
Pinson coach David Kennamer and his assistants had planned for such a game, and the plan worked — at least for about 20 minutes.
"Coach [Kristan] Cromer and Coach [Zaneta] Howard came up with a really good defensive plan, and it was working," Kennamer said. "Then we kind of got a little bit winded, and suddenly we were down."
Eventually, the Eagles' deep roster just wore down the Indians.
"More depth, more size, and more D-1 prospects — three of them," Kennamer said.
And it was those Division I prospects who took command in the second half. Farmer, named tournament MVP, led all scorers with 20 points; she is headed for Auburn. Gabby Holston added 13 plus 10 rebounds; the 6-foot-1 forward will play at Georgia Tech. And guard Dominique Patrick, bound for Grambling, scored nine and had seven steals.
"We played terrible defense in the first half. It was awful," Haynes said. "We were too hyped up in the beginning. We had to settle down and play our defense, because that's what we do. We went to a straight man-to-man and put pressure on the ball."
Alex Lowery was hot for Pinson from outside the 3-point arc, hitting three treys on her way to a 14-point night.
The Indians will travel to Ramsay for their sub-regional game on Thursday night, while the Eagles host Homewood.

Since taking over as Patch's Home & Garden editor, I've met many wonderful people and have had the good fortune of sharing their stories on our Patch sites in the Southland.

Never have I dared to suit up and enter a bee hive—until I met Frankfort's Jeff Bulthuis.
With him leading me every step of the way, I lifted frames from the boxes in one of his bee hives recently. And I gained a first-hand education on his hobby—beekeeping.

Gen Y Members Aren't Financial Misfits
They're saving more than the nation overall.
Despite Generation Y's apparent spending priorities and debt issues, this group is tucking away more money than the nation overall. According to a recent survey from Money Management International, a credit and debt counseling nonprofit, 44 percent of Gen Ys say they're funneling more money into savings (Americans as a whole say they're saving 36 percent more.)
Maybe we shouldn't beat up on Gen Y so much. Case in point: "Characterized by their sense of entitlement, casual clothes, Blackberries and high expectations, Gen Y has presented Generation X and Baby Boomer employers with the problem of managing and retaining them as employees," writes MMI.

The rubik's cube was fine, but the logo imprint did not look that great. I wish we could have made the logo larger so the huge amount that was missed between the spaces on the cube could have been avoided.

Since the early days of the BlackBerry PlayBook, Gameloft has been bringing new titles onto the platform at a steady cadence. Recently they launched yet another chapter to their popular Modern Combat franchise, Modern Combat 3. The new addition continues on what the others have started, but pushes the envelope just a bit more. The developers of this game say that the game features next generation graphics. But does the game live up to the hype? Continue reading for the full CrackBerry review of Modern Combat 3 for the BlackBerry PlayBook.
|Developer: Gameloft
|Version (at time of review): 1.0.0
|File Size: 752 MB
|OS Requirements: Tablet 2.0.0 or higher
|Cost: $2.99
|Website: http://gameloft.com
Modern Combat 3 is a first person shooter that incorporates on-screen controls, cinematic cut scenes and artificial intelligence to carry you through a world where war, is the only option. The overall game play was well done, and was enhanced with character acting that was actually quite good. There is one thing I noticed while playing Modern Combat 3, and that is the issue with on-screen controls. If you have the controls on their default layout and place your right thumb to the top portion of the screen you often mistakenly throw a grenade, an issue that could be fixed if you could move the location of those controls.
The developers at Gameloft Montréal have provided a plethora of in-game settings to make your gaming experience just a little bit better, because remember in Modern Combat 3 it's between life and death. Within the game you have access to change the language, sound levels, and also change a wide verity of assisting alterations like aim assist and more. Probably one of the handiest settings is within the control settings page. In the control settings you can invert the Y-axis, change sensitivity, and select between three different virtual controls layout to give you the competitive edge.
Modern Combat 3
Modern Combat 3 pulls out all the stops. With HD graphics, intelligent enemy AI, and an addictive storyline this game is bound to impress.
Modern Combat 3 lacks the cross platform multiplayer we've come to expect from Gameloft. As well there are a few performance and graphical issues in the game.
bzeal11 Sep 6, 2012 at 10:19 pm
i want to note that you can customize controls in the " advanced " options
Bobert_123 Sep 6, 2012 at 10:26 pm
God I want the damn multiplayer SO BADLY!!!!
keefrto Sep 6, 2012 at 10:42 pm
Omg its effing brilliant. Mind you poor placement of grenades, keep accidentally throwing them and getting blown up
GTiLeo Sep 6, 2012 at 10:51 pm
i'm off work this wee and i finished it in a day, its shorter then the second but it is a good game, the graphics are pretty good as well as the sounds. the story lacks a little bit
rspzeke Sep 6, 2012 at 11:06 pm
I been playing this game for a week now...and wow!. very good. Cant put it down.
93Aero Sep 6, 2012 at 11:50 pm
Great game, sadly was much easier than MC2 or I got much better. Beat it in two sittings.
Next time around I'll only play 1 mission a day. But I wasn't and you won't be disappointed still a great game!
The blacker the berry the sweeter the use...
shootsscores Sep 7, 2012 at 12:19 am
Got it. Fun game. Excellent graphics. Control positions can be customized in advanced options (E.g. I moved the grenade control to the top center of the screen).
I'm almost finished "normal" level after doing "easy" and have found MC3 to be easier than MC2 so far. We'll see what the next levels bring but I haven't upgraded my weapons or gear and am nonetheless progressing fairly quickly.
The AC130 chapter was very cool.
Revord Sep 7, 2012 at 12:41 am
Well, this review is what I've been waiting for. I have no problem getting it now.
Don't wanna be the wise guy, but please correct your technical description. The game does not USE the Rage and the Unreal-Engine (imho no game does this at the same time :-D ) , but it uses a similar engine, that can compete (Gamelofts own words) with the two engines.
Thats an important difference in my eyes.
Blackberry_boffin Sep 7, 2012 at 10:49 am
Fact is on the PlayBook, Gameloft games are an incredible bargain.
So disappointed, game lags so much and has no multi player function!
Rootbrian Sep 7, 2012 at 4:51 pm
It doesn't lag at all. Maybe because you have multiple applications in the background. Swipe up and close them all, set the General settings to Paused and it won't lag.

NORMAN — While leading scorer Taylor Ely spent three weeks on the sideline with a badly sprained ankle, Norman High struggled at first to replace her offensive production. The Tigers lost three straight games at the Westmoore tournament two weeks ago with the final loss coming to the Jags 43-40, primarily because they were having a hard time finding points.
But it was a problem the Tigers seemed to figure out in last Friday's game against Moore. In that contest, NHS had three players score in double figures, with Albany Anderson leading the way with 18, Bethany Cox scoring 17 and Erica Mitchell chipping in 11. The Tigers scored 51 points in that game and seemed to turn the corner on the offensive end.
Ely made a successful return to the court on Tuesday and led NHS with 17 points in a 43-38 victory over Westmoore in the rematch. She started the game hot but cooled off as it wore on, most likely due to an ankle that is still healing. But, even though she had a noticeable limp after the game, she hit enough big shots down the stretch to propel NHS to victory.
"It felt great to be back out there, and once the adrenaline got going I felt fine," Ely said after the game. "But it's a little sore right now."
Coach Nichole Copeland plans on being careful with Ely's return to the lineup. In addition to evaluating how her ankle responds to a busy week of basketball, the second-year coach faces another challenge heading into today's 11:30 a.m. matchup with Putnam City at the Carl Albert tournament — reintegrating Ely into the offense.
It's not an easy task. Ely's return to the floor means less time for some of the Tigers' role players and fewer shots to go around. But it's one that Copeland will have three games in a row this weekend to figure out, and there's something to the notion that playing without Ely for a few weeks will make the team better in the long run.

After going to a couple different Drs who didnt seem much help, I've been told I may have PMDD but not officially diagnosed. they basically said to put up with it. I have irregular periods anyway so not like the symptoms are predictable.
It's really frustrating me as previously i didnt get a period for 2-3 months, now im getting them every 5 weeks but severe symptoms of PMS for at least 2 weeks prior (withdrawing, not even wanting to go to work, depressed feelings and low about life in general, anxiety and feeling overwhelmed).
The Dr's ruled out depression and said it is hormonal.
Anyway a Dr gave me Yaz to try but i am usually hesitant to take medication so havent started it yet. I am wondering if Yaz really does help with PMS/PMDD or if there are alternative herbal remedies I could try? I tried Vitex that didnt make much difference besides helped with acne. I dont want to put up with symptoms anymore, it is affecting my day to day function especially when i am struggling to even get myself to work some days and just feel like quitting my job as can't function properly
Any thoughts?
The medications which have the best research studies to document their effectiveness have been either the drospirone containing birth control pills (eg Yaz and Yasmin) or the serotonin antidepressants. Remember that the serotonin antidepressents used for treating PMDD are given in low doses--doses not able to treat true depression. Moreover, some women are able to use these serotonin medications just during the time of the severe symptoms.
I would urge you to consider trying the Yaz as prescribed for a three month trial and see if you get the relief you need. If not, return to your GYN and ask about serotonin or serotonin-norepinephrine medications which have been shown to be effective for PMDD.
If you do experience worsened moods be sure and let your GYN know. At that point they may either try and switch you to another formulation of BCP, or try a trial of the serotonin medications for PMDD.
I found a website womentowomen.com and am currently trying their program. Might be worth checking out...
Good luck!
Us girls really do suffer don't we?
Well I started taking Yaz and initially felt fine, but the other day experienced a bad migraine (with aura), and I havent had one of those in years. Have decided I may need to try some other ways to treat the PMDD.
Thanks for the other suggestions, will definitely give more exercise a go! I probably also need to become more self aware and realise when I am feeling so low it is just hormonal and not like something major is wrong with me.
I too eat really well so can't see how diet really effects me but will try to eat even better and see how I go with that too. It's really good to hear others out there experience the same thing and I'm not just going crazy!
I take Zoloft (well the generic version) and it has changed my life. My very bad PMS symptoms are nearly gone. I am a new person! Good Luck!
In reading the recent replys, I noticed a posting about Zoloft. I was having issues with PMS for many years, going on, 2 weeks or so before each cycle. The migranes are the worst, the meds made me almost passout. I then found a Dr that prescribed the low dose Zoloft, (I get generic as well!) Well, I just went threw my 2nd cycle with NO, NOT ONE MIGRANE! A normal period and I have been feeling great! Please ask your Dr about the low dose Zoloft, it really works!! Good luck to you!

A Darien man has been charged with first degree murder and aggravated kidnapping after DuPage County officials said he killed one person and then kidnapped a woman at knifepoint Friday.
Joseph Spitalli, 34, of 7529 Country Lane in Darien, was taken into custody Sunday and charged with murder in the stabbing death of 31-year-old Teymur Huseynli. Spitalli was also charged with aggravated kidnapping after officials said he kidnapped Huseynli's girlfriend.
Darien police responded at 12:25 a.m. Friday to a battery call on Wildwood Court in Darien, according to a DuPage County State's Attorney's press release. They found Huseynli dead on the lawn of an apparent knife wound.
Officials aren't releasing any other information at this time. Spitalli is scheduled to appear in DuPage County bond court Monday morning at 8 a.m.
"I would like to thank the Darien Police Department as well as the DuPage County Sheriff's Office for their outstanding work on this case," DuPage County State's Attorney Robert Berlin said in the release. "Thanks to their efforts, Mr. Spitalli was taken into custody before anyone else was hurt."

It's official, homes in Charlottesville are worth more this year than last.
The yearly taxable real property values increased by 13.3 percent for the 2005 year. Apparently, it's not shocking for some homeowners in the area.
"It didn't really surprise me. It's been a consistent upward trend. I think you can see it reflected in what houses are selling for," said C-Ville resident Cathy Harding.
The city assessor looked at inflation and appreciation in property values as well as new construction or improvements to existing structures. Also one of the reasons for the assessment increase - the desirability of the city.
"Charlottesville being one of the best places to live in the United States is driving the rocket back up," said city assessor Roosevelt Barbour Jr.
Residential property assessments went up 9.9 percent this year. For commercial properties, it's an increase somewhere between 7 and 10 percent.
The city says the increases are fairly widespread throughout, but some residents say property assessments have gotten way too high, which could mean residents may have to pay more in real estate taxes.
"Something's got to stop. There has to be a limit somewhere," said city resident Jean Sampson. "The homeowners can't take it all on."
No word on if taxpayers will actually be paying more though. That all depends on if tax rates stay the same.
"If the tax rate stays the same, it's gonna mean that the tax payer will pay more money in taxes. He has more bargaining power as far as borrowing on it for equity on his home, but bottom line he will pay more money in taxes," said Barbour.
In April, city council will decide whether property taxes will stay the same, go down, or possibly increase.

FundsNetwork puts investment trusts listing on hold
by Michelle Abrego on Feb 11, 2013 at 11:20
Fidelity FundsNetwork has put plans to list investment trusts on the back burner prioritising projects which meet more pressing adviser demands.
In 2012, it was reported that the platform was to list investment trusts ahead of the retail distribution review (RDR).
However, a spokeswoman for the platform said plans for investment trusts had been put on hold for the time being.
'We have a busy delivery schedule, which has meant we have had to prioritise launches based on adviser feedback and need,' she said.
She said the platform was 'committed' to launching investment trusts, but was 'unable to commit to a specific date at the moment'.
FundsNetwork beat rival fund supermarkets Cofunds and Skandia to launching an unbundled proposition in April 2012.
It had previously announced plans to offer a range of exchange traded funds and investment trusts, it added ETFs to the platform in June 2012.

Another announcement from FundsNetwork - and another target missed! I wonder what the more pressing platform developments are? It would be good if they could tell us (for a change).report this
Feb 11, 2013 at 13:48
The problem is that advisors remaining independent will now have to find another platform if they are to consider and use Investment Trusts. Fidelity have known about this requirement for some time and whilst everyone has more important things to process, is it a turn they are now taking to placate the restricted community or to build a tie with another life company/bank.
How hard can it be to simply put a range of investment trusts on the system?report this
Feb 11, 2013 at 13:51
And somewhat unfair to advisers to suggest that they would be including them, thus helping maintain Independence ... and then not ...report this
Feb 11, 2013 at 14:08
This highlights that due diligence on platforms should be based on what they actually offer rather than what they promise.
This is not the first time that a supermarket has failed to deliver the promises.
Citywire article...January 2010.....Skandia will have cash accounts, ETFs and investment trusts!report this
Feb 11, 2013 at 15:25
What shocks me most is that when you research the ability to hold Investment Trusts on Synaptic and Adviser Asset - many platforms say will take Investment Trusts when they do not!
How many advisers are justifying their choice of Investment Platform on false information?report this
Feb 11, 2013 at 16:32
If you only use one of the big three plaforms, Skandia, Fidelity and Cofunds, then this decision only goes to reinforce the FSA comments in its Platform Guidance Factsheet - "that it is likely to be very rare. if possible at all, that a firm could use one platform for all clients and meet the independence rule".
We used to use all 3 of these platforms but realised last year that we could not cover all of our investment proposition through using them and that they were probably not going to deliver what we wanted in time!
As we did not want to go down the Restricted advice route we now have one of the big three and then two other lower cost platforms with wider investment choices to compliment this, mainly to use with other clients outside of our normal investment proposition.
We have even considered actually using some of the Investment Trusts available, some of which have performed significantly better than their OIEC cousins!
More and more of them will be coming out with a "guaranteed no discount to NAV" to attract more IFA business.report this
Feb 11, 2013 at 18:36
Interesting comments here, and to reinforce platform due diligence is important. Its a good idea to have an idea beforehand what you are looking for a platform for AND for which set of your client bank (they are likely to be different). Make sure the provider does what they say they do and check it works for you. See what actual IFA users think by reviewing the Platforum User Leaderboard aka Trip Adviser. If you don't want to talk to any computers just give PAT a call!!report this
Feb 18, 2013 at 10:32
I wholeheartedly agree with Gillian Cardy. We invest into Closed End Funds on a regular basis and placed some new business with Funds Network on their commitment to make them available on the platform by the end of 2012.
Having being told that there were pressing RDR requirements, we have now been told that Closed End Funds are delayed again and have now contacted the clients to move the funds onto an unfettered platform. Fortunately the transfers can be done in specie, at no cost or loss to the client, but it does call into the question the relevance of having "several" platforms to meet the FSA's independance requirements

Staff reports
Niagara Gazette
Niagara Gazette — A Florida man who attempted to bring a handgun onto an airplane at the Buffalo-Niagara International Airport was detained by transportation security officials on Thursday.
In a release issued by the Transportation Security Administration, officials said officers at the airport stopped the man after they spotted a handgun in his carry-on bag at an X-ray machine checkpoint.
TSA contacted the Niagara Frontier Transportation Authority police who responded, confiscated the loaded handgun, and arrested the man on a state weapons charge, according to the release. He was originally ticketed to fly to Tampa.
The incident marks the third time TSA officers at the airport have stopped someone trying to bring a firearm onto a plane this year.
"TSA screens approximately 9,000 passengers and their carry-on bags each day, and our TSA officers remain focused on threats to the flying public," said Derek "Rick" DePietro, TSA's Federal Security Director at the airport.
As a reminder, TSA officials noted that weapons—including firearms, firearm parts and ammunition—are not permitted in carry-on bags, but can be transported in checked bags if they are unloaded, properly packed and declared to the airline. Passengers who bring firearms to the checkpoint are subject to possible criminal charges from law enforcement and civil penalties from TSA.
The TSA screens approximately 1.8 million passengers and their luggage every day for prohibited items, including weapons and explosives. To do this, TSA uses imaging technology to safely screen passengers for any items which may be concealed under clothing, while X-ray units screen all carry-on baggage.
Passengers are responsible for the contents of bags they bring to the security checkpoint, and TSA's advice to passengers is to look through bags thoroughly before coming to the airport to make sure there are no illegal or prohibited items.
Passengers are permitted to travel with firearms in checked baggage if they are properly packaged and declared. Firearms must be unloaded, packed in a hard-side case, locked, and packed separately from ammunition. Firearm possession laws vary by state and locality. Travelers should familiarize themselves with state and local firearm laws for each point of travel prior to departure.
Airlines may have additional requirements for traveling with firearms and ammunition. Travelers should also contact the airline regarding firearm and ammunition carriage policies.
For more details on how to properly travel with a firearm, visit the TSA's website at www.tsa.gov/traveler-information/firearms-and-ammunition.

Thread: Best SUV for offroad?
Best SUV for offroad?
I came across this today: http://autos.aol.com/gallery/top-10-off-road-suvs . I love when they make reports like this. It always leads to a bunch of extra cash in my pocket this winter as the folks with their stock explorers try to run with the big boys at the local mud pit. I just sit there with my tow strap and wait. When the snow flies will be another chance to make some extra cash. It never fails that some moron in his land rover attempts to jump a snowbank, goes thru it rather then over and has to open the back hatch to get out because the snow bank they punched thru is tight around the sides of his SUV.

Who wrote that list. All those SUVs are not that great on terrain they are luxury SUVs not off road demons. Only SUV on there built for terrain there is the Wrangler and maybe the Grand Cherokee. The real list should include Tahoe, Suburban and their GMC and Caddy counterparts. Nothing beats good old fashioned 4x4 traction coupled with raw V8 power and tons of ground and suspension clearance.
