The Meridian Star
The Meridian Symphony Orchestra recognized 16 of their most noteworthy patrons Wednesday during a donor recognition luncheon sponsored by Citizens National Bank.
These patrons include the following organizations and businesses: Structural Steel Services, Inc., Citizens National Bank, the Meridian Symphony League, Anderson Support and Development Foundation, Inc., Meridian Airport Authority, One Life America, Rick Justice Automotive, and Southern Pipe and Supply, Coca-Cola Bottling Company of Meridian, Community Foundation of East Mississippi, Dr. and Mrs. R. Condon Hughes, III, John O'Neil Johnson Motor Company, Leading Edges Advertising, Dr. and Mrs. John D. McEachin, Meyer and Rosenbaum, and Dr. Ken Staggs.
"The arts play a crucial role in every community and the MSO is no exception," said Mark Altekruse, executive director of the Meridian Symphony Association. "This orchestra, now in its 53rd year, continues to provide wonderful symphonic and family programs that appeal to the wide and diverse musical tastes within our community. In addition, the community looks to us for superb music education programs that supplement the arts education programs available in our public and private schools. For the business community, the MSO serves as a magnet, attracting new businesses and professional talent to the region."
Altekruse said the Symphony is also thrilled to be recognized as Citizens National Bank's newest Community Partner. Through the Community Partners program, Citizens National Bank is promoting the Symphony's 2013/2014 season through social media, billboard, radio, and online advertising. In addition, bank President Archie McDonnell is also serving on the Symphony Association's Board of Directors.
"The bank provides both financial and technical expertise to many key nonprofit organizations, but selects certain significant nonprofit organizations to formally partner with in order to improve the quality of life for Meridianites and all Mississippians. This is a responsibility that we have as a local community bank …something we fondly refer to as a part of 'The Power of Local.' We are particularly proud and thankful to be a part of uplifting the culture in Meridian through music because it is the right thing to do."
The orchestra's theme for this year's concert series is "A New Era," and Altekruse said "the Symphony Association is thrilled to welcome Maestro Peter Rubardt to the stage as our new Music Director."
Rubardt was one of the featured speakers for the donor recognition luncheon and shared details of the symphony's 53rd season.
Rubardt is also in his 16th season as music director of the Pensacola Symphony Orchestra, where his tenure has been distinguished with artistic excellence on the stage and passionate support from the audience and the community, according to a press release. He initiated pops concerts, family concerts, and a series of chamber orchestra concerts in area churches, broadening the base of support and increasing the orchestra's recognition throughout the community.
Prior to his appointment in Pensacola, Rubardt served four seasons as the associate conductor of the Syracuse Symphony Orchestra, which followed three seasons as resident conductor of the New Jersey Symphony Orchestra. He has also conducted the Utah Symphony, Louisiana, Rochester, and Las Vegas Philharmonic Orchestras, the Louisville Orchestra, the Jacksonville Symphony Orchestra.
Season ticket sales are underway, and the symphony's executive director, Mark Altekruse, said that the season offers something for everyone at very affordable prices.
"When you purchase your season ticket, you'll be getting five concerts for the price of four," Altekruse said. "That's a 20 percent savings as compared to the single ticket price." he added.
Discounts are also available for area military personnel and students.
The orchestra takes the stage of the MSU Riley Center on Saturday at 7 p.m. for their opening night performance.
Other highlights of the season include the Peppermint Pops concert on Dec. 7, which features sounds of the holiday season as well the Symphony Doo-Dah event on Valentine's Day in 2014. This family-oriented program features the ever-popular, MSO Instrument Petting Zoo in the lobby of the MSU Riley Center where children of all ages have a chance to learn about the instruments of the orchestra.
Anyone wishing to purchase season tickets, or tickets to the individual performances can call the MSU Riley Center box office at 601-696-2200.

Lucrative local government incentives total $4.17 billion annually in California and the state's booming agriculture industry receives the largest chunk of that funding, according to a study done by the New York Times.
That's a far cry from the $19.1 billion in subsidies doled out in Texas, the state with the most robust incentive programs, but still amounts to 5 cents of every dollar in the California state budget, the data collected by the NYT showed.
The leading kinds of incentives in California were corporate income tax credits, rebates or reductions, at $2.29 billion, followed by other income tax breaks ($1.44 billion) and sales tax refunds or exemptions ($386 million), according to the NYT.
The top incenvites by industry ranked agriculture No. 1 with $208 million. The film industry recevied $191 million and tech ranked third with $105 million.
A chunk of the subsidy pie comes to Santa Clara County. Local companies received just over $59 million in incentive program funding in the past 10 years, according to the NYT data.
Not surprisingly, the largest subsidy in all of Santa Clara County went toward technology. SeaMicro received $9.3 million in grants or loans in 2010 alone, the New York Times reported. The second highest recipient was defense tech company Lockheed Martin at $8.33 million in "free services" from 2002 to 2009.

The Federal Emergency Management Agency via its Ready.gov website has tips for pet owners to keep their pets safe in an emergency.
The full list of FEMA tips is available here.
Some key tips include identifiying hotels and motels that are pet-friendly if you have to leave your home.
FEMA's tips to shelter your pet include:
- If you have to leave but can't take your pet: "Confine your pet to a safe area inside - NEVER leave your pet chained outside! Leave them loose inside your home with food and plenty of water. Remove the toilet tank lid, raise the seat and brace the bathroom door open so they can drink. Place a notice outside in a visible area, advising what pets are in the house and where they are located. Provide a phone number where you or a contact can be reached as well as the name and number of your vet."
- "Most boarding kennels, veterinarians and animal shelters will need your pet's medical records to make sure all vaccinations are current. Include copies in your "pet survival" kit along with a photo of your pet."
Some items you should have onhand in addition to food and any medication needed are:
- Newspapers (for sanitary purposes)
- FEMA suggests to "Feed the animals moist or canned food so they will need less water to drink."
- "In an emergency, you may have to take your birds with you," says Ready.gov. "Talk with your veterinarian or local pet store about special food dispensers that regulate the amount of food a bird is given."
- A first aid kit
- Collar with ID, harness or leash
- Crate or pet carrier

One year since the ceasefire between the Government of Israel and Hamas, the promised economic improvements for people in Gaza have failed to materialize.
A year after all 27 EU countries committed to challenging settlement expansion, forced displacement, and demolition of Palestinian property in an unprecedented Foreign Affairs Council statement, approvals for illegal settlements have increased.
With a ceasefire holding, Oxfam sees an opportunity to break the cycle of violence and lift the blockade once and for all.
Fifty international charities and United Nations Agencies have unanimously called for the lifting of the blockade of Gaza. The organizations have published a simple three line statement to mark the fifth anniversary of the tightening of the blockade of the Strip.
As regular power cuts and fuel shortages, due to the blockade, continue in Gaza, the electricity crisis puts more economic and physical pressures on women.

Nineteen Peaster ISD students were safely evacuated from a bus Thursday morning after the front end of the vehicle caught fire on the way to school, according to authorities.
The bus driver, 61-year-old Billy Dwayne Boggs, of Poolville, was able to get all the children safely off the bus with the help of a passer-by, Texas Highway Patrol Trooper Ricky Hunter said.
The vehicle was southbound on Zion Hill Road around 7:15 a.m. when the driver lost power to the engine and noticed smoke coming from the front end, according to authorities.
He then pulled over at McClendon Road and immediately evacuated the students, ranging from elementary school age to high school age, as the smoke began coming inside the vehicle.
The driver attempted to fight the fire with an extinguisher but was unsuccessful, Hunter said.
Volunteer firefighters from Peaster VFD arrived on scene to find the whole front end on fire, fire chief Leo Scott said. "It was the real McCoy thing."
"I cannot stress what a perfect job he did," Scott said, adding that the driver got the vehicle off the main highway and had the kids corralled away from the roadway.
"Everybody got out OK, no bumps or bruises," Scott said. "I don't even think they were late for school."
Despite their efforts, the fire completely destroyed the vehicle.
Scott said he was concerned about a possible grass fire because of the extent of the fire and requested firefighters from Central Community and Springtown, as well, but they were not needed.
"It looks like we had a mechanical or electrical issue," said Peaster ISD Superintendent Matt Adams, who praised the bus driver's handling of the situation.
"The driver did a great job making sure the kids were safe and off the bus," Adams said.
The school practices bus evacuations with students once a year, according to Adams, who said Boggs has been driving for the school district for a couple of years.
"We're very fortunate that he handled it as well as he'd been trained," Adams said.

School is about to start, and one big decision (other than what the first-day outfit) will be is whether or not your child will eat a packed lunch or buy lunch from school.
The great thing about packing lunch is that you know what your kids will be eating, and you can cater the meal to their allergies and preferences.
Patch spoke to some moms and contributors and came up with a few tips every family can use. See their assorted answers in italics below.
How to get your kids excited about packing a lunch:
- Make a deal with your kids. Give them a certain amount of money each week and explain they can either buy school lunch with it, or save it and bring their lunch from home for free.
- One big thing kids seem to be into these days is bento box type meals. Little compartmentalized boxes with a bunch of different choices inside—grapes, finger sandwiches, maybe sliced peaches. A lot of people go seasonal with these, using what is fresh. It is cool because it is pleasing and sustainable.
- Post a list on your fridge of the week's lunch choices from these categories: sandwich, fruit, snack, sweet. Because the kids have options, they tend to eat what they chose.
Easy preparations to make packing school lunch simple:
- Every Sunday night I prep all the snacks in little containers, I clean the fruit and have it ready, I clean and cut the veggies (carrot sticks, celery, etc.) and have those ready in small containers, too. I store juice boxes and yogurts on the bottom shelf of the refrigerator door so that everything is always in the same place and I can quickly make the lunches each morning. Having everything already prepped saves me so much time and allows me to spend time with my kids instead of making lunches and starting my day stressed.
- Freeze a 1/3 filled water bottle overnight & fill the rest w/reg water in the AM - serves as a freezer pack for the lunch box and water for your kid. — Jenni Pompi, contributor
Lunch ideas and options:
- One of my favorite lunches as a child that my great aunt would make for me after a hard morning of swimming was a hard boiled egg (cut into eighths) and ham and cheese roll-ups. If it went to school, she would cut up the egg and put it into a little thermos (mine had Garfield on it) and set the rolled up ham and cheese in a baggie. Worked great. I still will make that lunch for myself when I've been out for a day of swimming. I miss her a lot and eating that is like a little hug from her.
- I was blessed with a hungry, but picky eater who doesn't like to eat the same lunch twice in one week, so I have to get creative. I try to pack three to five items that do not need to be cut and that he can open by himself. An easy favorite of five-year-old Oscar is peanut butter on celery, a cheese stick, and some whole grain pretzels. He also loves cream cheese sprinkled with cinnamon and sugar on toasted whole wheat bread, with a baggie of almonds and raisins, and a clementine (I start the peel.) Three-year-old Miles is much easier. He's happy with your standard PB&J on whole wheat, some sliced strawberries, and a cup of yogurt.
- Last year, I got some old jars and I tossed some peanut butter, ranch or french dressing in the bottoms. Then I cut carrot and celery sticks and stuck them in the jar. Ta-Da! Instant dippers. You could also probably do it with apples or other fruits.
- Something that my four-year old loves is when I give him a deconstructed pizza—Ritz crackers, mini pepperonis and either a mozzarella string cheese or a packet of those little 100-calorie cheese cubes. I also tend to toss a fruit in with the mix, too, his favorite is cut up cantaloupe, but apples, bananas and grapes are all hits as well.
- My kids don't eat sandwiches and are really picky about what they will eat, which makes packing lunches hard. They do, however, love Lunchables, but I don't want them eating those every day because of the cost and nutrition. Instead I make my own version with cut up meat, fresh cheese, and crackers. They get to make their own little stacked meat sandwiches and I get to feel better about the kind of food I'm giving them.
- I also got sent to school with soups in that thermos a lot (sometimes SpaghettiOs, too, another favorite). I don't see that much anymore, maybe we can bring that back!
- Fruits and veggies taste better fresh and in season, making kids much more likely to eat them. I'll never forget the ecstatic look on my little niece's face when she tasted her first ever summer peach. Introduce your kids to seasonal goodies they can use in their lunch by visiting one of our region's farmers markets.
Have a great tip for other parents packing school lunches? Tell us in the comments!

Playoff picks: Bruins in 5 and other fearless forecasts
By now, loyal readers of this blog know to take my predictions with a giant grain of salt.
After all, many of you never fail in the comments section to point out my prediction that Philadelphia would manhandle the Bruins in last year's second round before Boston went out and not only beat, but swept, the Flyers.
Nonetheless, anyone can just pick mostly higher seeds to win in six or seven games and not insult anyone. I don't approach my picks that way.
So while I do forecast some long series, I also see some matchups – including the Bruins' with Washington – that should be done before the end of the second week of the postseason. My pick is Bruins in five. I just don't see how the seventh-seeded Capitals can muster enough offense, once Zdeno Chara has his way with Alexander Ovechkin, or play strong enough defense, assuming the Bruins are flying in on the forecheck the way we know they can, to make this a long series.
The Capitals' drive to the playoffs was like a month-long playoff series in itself, as they were playing do-or-die games almost every night. So they should be a bit worn out. In addition, Braden Holtby is a strong, young goaltender. Nonetheless, there's a reason other than age that he's No.3 on the depth chart. Even without Nathan Horton, the Bruins – led by Tyler Seguin, Milan Lucic and Brad Marchand – should be able create offense on the rush, and on the forecheck. We all know what happens when you pressure the likes of Mike Green, Dennis Wideman and John Carlson.
Second-seeded Boston's back-enders are also giveaway prone when pressured, but they're much-improved back there, especially with the way Andrew Ference and Johnny Boychuk have fared this season. That pair should be even better this season considering the excellent regular seasons both player had and the experience they gained last spring in putting the clamps on Tampa Bay's and Vancouver's second lines.
The Bruins might miss Horton deeper in the playoffs, but they should have enough offense to get through the Caps. And they're power play, a problem spot for more than a year now, might be able to exploit Washington's penalty kill and gain enough confidence that it'll stop being a weak spot in Boston's arsenal.
Yes, the Bruins got a favorable matchup when Washington passed Ottawa in the East standings. And they should be able to finish off this series in five games.
Here's a thumbnail look at my other series picks:
Eastern Conference
(1) NY Rangers vs. (8) Ottawa
Ottawa in 7
The Rangers led the Eastern Conference for practically the entire season. Their style of play is so demanding, they could run out of gas. Playing with house money as the eighth seed, I can see the new-and-improved Jason Spezza leading Ottawa past the Blueshirts with Craig Anderson stealing a couple games in goal.
(3) Florida vs. (6) New Jersey
New Jersey in 6
If the Panthers, who backed into the playoffs in maybe the worst manner ever, suddenly went on a postseason run, it'd be a travesty. Martin Brodeur has quietly compiled another great season and Ilya Kovalchuk and company just might be one of the Devils' best offenses in a while.
(4) Pittsburgh vs. (5) Philadelphia
Philadelphia in 7
We saw at the end of the regular season that the Penguins could be knocked off their game by the Flyers physical ways. The chance to prove he was worth that huge contract will get Ilya Bryzgalov to play lights-out in net and the Flyers will spoil everyone's plans for a Penguins coronation.
Western Conference
(1) Vancouver vs. (8) Los Angeles
Vancouver in 5
Jonathan Quick might steal a game in net, but the Kings will miss Jeff Carter more than Vancouver will miss Daniel Sedin, offensively – if either player can't go at the start of this series. The Canucks are deep again and will get great goaltending from at least one of their netminders.
(2) St. Louis vs. (7) San Jose
San Jose in 7

Emerging equity markets witness occasional surges in prices (frenzies) and crossmarket price dispersion (herds), accompanied by abundant media coverage. An information market complementarity can explain these anomalies. Because information has high fixed costs, high volume makes it inexpensive. Low prices induce investors to buy information that others buy. Given two identical assets, investors learn about one; abundant information reduces its payoff risk and raises its price. Transitions between low-information/low-asset-price and high-information/highasset- price equilibria resemble frenzies. Equity data and new panel data on news coverage support the model's predictions: Asset market movements generate news and news raises prices and price dispersion. (JEL D82, G12, G14)

AUSTIN -- Austin singer and songwriter Guy Forsyth says unexpected illness can leave the uninsured, no matter their musical talents, quickly singing the blues.
"The same thing that happens if you're a construction worker and you get sick. You can't work. And if you can't work, there's no system set up that's going to take care of you," said Forsyth. "I'm an individual contractor. I'm also an employer. So if I get sick or I get injured, not only am I not going to work, but the people that I would have employed don't get to work either."
With open enrollment for the national Health Insurance Marketplace beginning October 1, volunteers with Insure Central Texas are preparing to guide the area's roughly 120,000 eligible uninsured through the process.
"We'll have 19 work stations set up over here, cubicles where our volunteers will be working," Insure Central Texas Director Elizabeth Colvin told KVUE, pointing around a former bookstore inside Highland Mall, which will serve as one of two enrollment centers in the Austin area. Colvin says 70 volunteers, many of them veterans of parent organization Foundation Communities' free tax filing service, will soon begin work.
After receiving $11 million in federal grants for full time health care "navigators" to help enroll people in the program, Gov. Rick Perry (R-TX) drew criticism from many on left by requiring strict training rules in addition to federal requirements for navigators working in Texas. Operating separately from the state, Insure Central Texas relies on volunteers rather the navigators.
"Our volunteers have gone through the online federal training plus received supplemental training from us, and plus they have this tax expertise so they already know the dependents, the household size, filing status, all of those things," said Colvin. "They understand how the tax credits work. All of that really gives them the ability to help people walk through this enrollment form and navigate this new system, although they're not navigators."
Speaking to media after the enrollment center's unveiling, Rep. Lloyd Doggett (D-TX) called Perry's additional training requirements for navigators "absolutely outrageous," adding that they would not go into effect until next year. Doggett suggested the use of volunteers may not insulate Insure Central Texas against the additional navigator requirements.
"It's unclear," said Doggett. "Under [Perry's] broad interpretation, initially he referred only to the navigators, of which we have too few in Central Texas. But if you follow the logic of his misinterpretation, it would apply to everyone who wants to provide health insurance assistance and information."
Meanwhile in the nation's capital, Sen. Ted Cruz launched into a de facto filibuster Tuesday afternoon to block funding for the Affordable Care Act. With Senate Democrats expected to strip language defunding the health care law from a budget measure passed by the House, Cruz has urged fellow Republicans to block a procedural "cloture" vote to take up the issue. Both chambers have until the end of the week to reach a budget agreement in order to avoid a government shutdown.
"If it is the Majority Leader's intent to fund Obamacare using just 51 votes, then I would submit to every Republican in this body it is our obligation to our constituents to do everything we can to prevent the Majority Leader from funding Obamacare with just 51 votes," Cruz began his remarks. "Any member of this body that votes for cloture on this bill will be voting to allow the Majority Leader to fund Obamacare on 51 votes. I think that vote's a mistake. I think that vote disserves our constituents. I think that vote hurts the people of America."
"Ultimately the government has to operate. There are vital functions that have to be approved," said Doggett. "Even if we have a shutdown for a few days, we will continue to have the Affordable Care Act. They cannot stop it, and as Americans become invested in it, they will not stop it."
"I think much of what is at stake here is not about Obamacare or access to health insurance. It is the fear of some on the extreme right that a government program will actually work, will actually deliver services in an efficient way," said Doggett. "Their fear that that might lead to more public programs than they're willing to support."
Insure Central Texas will also operate an enrollment center at the Community Financial Center located at West Gate Boulevard and Stassney Lane. Representatives with St. David's announced Tuesday the health provider had awarded a $100,000 grant to Foundation Communities to open a third enrollment center in East Austin. An additional "challenge" grant from St. David's pledges to match community donations of up to $100,000 to build a fourth and possibly fifth location if needed.

Comments about Columbia Schuss Hoodie:
I got this because i wanted a hoodie that didn't look like something I would wear to the gym and that I could use while hiking or even do some riding in. I am very pleased with this hoodie. A bit thinner than what most would likely be looking for but I use it as just another layer (which i think is its intended design) while hiking. One feature that I found useful was the thumb loops in the wrist cuffs. They keep your sleeve where it should be if you were putting a rain jacket on, or just trying to keep your hands a little warmer. I would buy another in an instant.

Lynn Swann performed unequaled athletic feats in several sports at Serra High in San Mateo between the years of 1966-70. He went on to play football as a wide receiver at USC and for the Pittsburgh Steelers and is enshrined in the NFL Hall of Fame.
Swann was also an all-league basketball player and a California state champion in track and field. His football coach once said, "if Serra wanted to win a tennis title, they'd give a tennis racket to Lynn."
Swann, who took dance lessons and wanted to follow his two older brothers to San Mateo, returned to Serra on Friday and was honored in a special assembly inside Serra's gymnasium as part of the Pro Football Hall of Fame and Allstate's "Hometown Hall of Famers" program.
His parents, Mildred and Willie Swann, and his godparents, were also in attedance.
"I always wanted to come back for the reunions but they were held during football season," Swann said afterward. "I was never able to get back. This is as close as it comes."
It was quite a reunion, which included many of his former high school teammates, coaches and administrators.
"This is one of the best things that could have happened to me," Swann said of his years at Serra. "Life long friendships were made. In my mind these are the most important years of your life. It's the foundation of what you take to college."
Swann unveiled his plaque with the help of his former dance instructor, Les Williams, an original member of the Tuskegee Airmen.
"I owe him," Swann said of Williams. "I took dance lessons from the fourth grade until my junior year in high school. After Super Bowl X, when I was named MVP, someone referred to me as the 'Baryshnikov of football.' I didn't pay anyone to do that either."
When he leapt to catch a football, it was pure poetry, even on the high school fields of the Bay Area.
"My junior year we were mediocre. We didn't know if we were good enough," former Serra teammate Karl Vorsatz said. "We had a wide receiver, Mike Belinski, an outstanding athlete, who broke his arm in an early practice. So Lynn Swann gets called up from the junior varsity. We scrimmaged Jefferson and Jesse Freitas, Jr. throws this pass about 30 yards downfield and Swann goes straight up to catch it, like he was an elevator. We knew this guy was unreal."
Pete Jensen, a long-time baseball coach at Serra, played for Hillsdale High. He was on the other sideline when Swann was a sophomore.
"I had played against his brother Calvin, and I knew how good he was," Jensen said. "We didn't know anything about Lynn until we showed up to play them. I think he returned a punt for a touchdown and caught a touchdown pass or two against us. He was a show, just an unbelievable player. He burst on the scene without anyone knowing."
Swann spoke in front of a wall where Serra's best athletes are honored as "Blanket Award winners."
Almost directly above his head was 1954's blanket recipient John Robinson, who went on to coach football at USC and in the NFL. Other names stood out, like Jim Fregosi,Tim Cullen and Dan Frisella, the first of dozens of Padres' baseball players to reach the major leagues.
One of Swann's classmates, who was in attendance, is Dr. Tom McBreen, who earned a bronze medal in swimming at the 1972 Olympic Games in Munich. McBreen once held the world record in the 400 free.
Barry Bonds, Greg Jefferies and many others reached stardom after Serra High, but none of them could reach the stars like Swann.
"Lynn Swann taught me something I didn't really know much about," former Serra teammate Dick Stapenhorst said. "When he was a senior, Freitas asked him to play quarterback. I thought Freitas was crazy. But he unselfishly played the position. He gave up what he wanted for everyone else. For that I am grateful."
San Mateo Allstate agent Michael Glazer officially presented the school with the plaque and special road sign, San Mateo councilwoman Maureen Freschet (a Notre Dame grad) presented Swann with a city proclamation, Assemblyman Kevin Mullin's representative Joe Fazio presented him with a resolution and student body president Roy Whalen presented him with a Serra jacket.
Serra principal Barry Thornton ended the festivities calling Swann "the most spectacular Padre of all."

If you've listened to the others in the series then no doubt you'll want to get this, but I didn't think it was as good as the previous 3.
Yes, it's about a hot handsome hunk that fights women off and it was a contemporary easy going entertaining listen with likeable characters but it wasn't really exciting or pulse pounding, the H/H met worked together, became very attracted to each other, resisted the 'urge' for a while then gave in. There's romance and plenty of sex but I'm sorry to say it felt there was just 'something' missing for it to warrant any addition to the star rating.
Worth a credit? Well, it was like vanilla ice cream - quite edible and enjoyable but a bit bland - so I'm afraid it's going to be a 50/50 for me.
It's now 3.30 am as I write this Review having just finished this exhausting, but oh so enjoyable, listen as it had my pulse pounding for most of the all consuming story which I just HAD TO, yes HAD TO finish before I had any chance of sleeping. There's sweet, raw, passionate, erotic, nail-biting and very romantic scenes as well as a very well described and developed plot that resulted in many enjoyable drama filled hours of listening.
As a hopeless romantic, Melanie was searching for her perfect Prince but instead she got a handsome bad boy King.... Greyson King is dark, sexy, secretive, possessive, jealous, sensual and very loving but she kept wondering why he kept going missing and why he was becoming more illusive. Greyson has been captivated by Melanie since he first saw her and now he's tasted her he just can't let her go but he's hiding terrible secrets that will devastate Melanie and someone's waiting in the wings ready to settle a score with Greyson which has heartbreaking consequences for them both.
Worth a credit? This listen had me sighing with delight at the romance, captivated by a damaged Hero, on the edge of my seat with all the action and drama, shedding tears for all the heartache and finally bursting with joy at the beautiful ending to their love story that had survived despite everything. So, YES a creditworthy addition to a powerful series and I hope KE will keep em coming so I can get my next fix involving these very lickable, loveable and loving Alphas.
Right from the start this listen captured my imagination while Xavier captured my heart…. sitting in Economy aboard a plane that will hopefully whisk her away from overbearing religious parents and an unwanted marriage, shy timid Anna locks eyes with a stunning, sexy, drool-worthy man as he prepares to sit in First Class. She doesn't know it but he's a famous Wrestler and he's about to rock her world.
Although he says he's the villain in this story Xavier comes across as protective, sweet, thoughtful, kind and loving to Anna and when their off the charts sizzling chemistry moves them from the 'friends' category into the 'lovers' category then things really heat up with jealousy and possessiveness also joining his list of traits. He's damaged and haunted by his past and terrified of losing his beautiful innocent Anna and will do anything to stop that from happening…… but the one he should fear most is himself.
Worth a credit? Oh YES, what an awesome sexy start to a new series that will be an auto download for me but hopefully they won't have quite such an epic cliffhanger as this one did which left me pulling my hair out while screaming "NO NO NO OMG NO NO NO !!!"
As the only single and youngest of the MacKade brothers is finally hit over the head by Cupid's Bow he becomes lost. As Shane, the once happy-go-lucky handsome ladies man, is unusually out of his depth, frustrated, angry, lust filled and his emotions are tied up in knots when he meets the skinny, nerdy, frustrating, brilliant at everything but cooking Academic called Rebecca.
This was lol funny, very entertaining, was so richly detailed, had very light sex scenes, there was the usual cast of MacKades and their ever growing families and a passionate romance that neither Shane nor Rebecca was expecting. Also, as with the other three books, is the sub story of the tragic lives of the ghosts which was partly uncovered and put to rest as some spooky things started happening.
Worth a credit? No, as it was only $7.34 which is what you'd expect for a light, easy-going listen and, although it was quite short, it was still a very very enjoyable story and I'm going to miss each and every one of the loveable MacKade family.
As with all of Nora Roberts books each chapter is richly described so you can visualise them in your mind which adds to the enjoyment of the story. Devin, the handsome town Sheriff, has loved Cassie for 12 years but she made a terrible mistake when she married a vicious man who cruelly abused her but now that he is safely locked away and Cassie and her children are settled it's only a matter of time until Devin's tightly held emotions finally breaks.
When it does there's a lot of tender touching scenes between the whole family but it's not too long before misunderstandings of a boy, the past reappearing and a desperate life/death struggle makes things come crashing to a head.
Worth a credit? Every NR book is a safe bet for me because I know that I'm going to be entertained by a plot that will have it's ups and downs, drama, action, angst, very light but passion filled sex scenes and a sweet romance and this one didn't let me down. Yes, it was predictable fluff but, as with the whole series, there's also a paranormal story running through it too as ghosts from long ago continue to haunt the living and their stories eerily interlock with each MacKade. This is a fairly short, easy going, feel-good listen and is priced fairly at $7.34 so I just bought it saving my credit for a 'meatier' listen.
This tragic epic love story is like no other I have ever listened to or read..... it's heartbreakingly raw, emotionally draining, the words of love are passionate, the sex scenes are erotic and, as I was swept up in this beautiful but sad story that'll stay with me long after it's finished, I marvelled at Ella Frank's ability to write such a haunting thought provoking tale.
As the story starts, you don't know what has happened, or what's coming next nor can you imagine how it's possibly going to end so all you can do is listen as chapter after chapter you slowly begin to understand that this intensely painful, romantic, poignant, heartbreaking listen about grief, loss, devastation, love and hope will consume you until the very last word.
Worth a credit? This love story is so well written and I don't want to give anything away so all I can say is that it isn't the usual romance it's a tragedy and will leave you feeling sad and heartbroken for all three characters in this book. This is not a 'feel good' listen that'll put a smile on your face but it is an overwhelmingly sad work of art. It's very creditworthy but it has left me an emotional wreck, so BEWARE.
This was a good second instalment in the Most Wanted Trilogy and this time it's about Tyler, the second of The Knights to fall victim to Cupid's arrow.
First, let me get the negatives out the way…. I said it was good BUT it just wasn't up to JK's usual standard of writing as she relied very heavily on a lot of sex scenes and, I never thought I'd say this, but they got a bit boring so I would have liked a bit more story. The plot of Sloane, a female Homicide Detective who's worked Vice and Drugs, being all tongue tied and lost for words seemed unrealistic and she came across as mild and a bit weak which is again unrealistic.
However, it was an enjoyable opposites attract love story as Sloane and Tyler's instant sizzling chemistry played out into a hot voyeuristic romance with slight BDSM but the plot was Sloane, on medical leave goes to Chicago needing to find her missing friend, following clues and describes the lengths she goes to to find out what happened to her. Both H/H have terrible histories buried deep, secrets, murder, drama, twists and some tender shared times makes up this listen.
Worth a credit? Despite my negative comments this was an entertaining hot listen that has the rich, handsome, likeable, charismatic, domineering Millionaire bad boy Tyler having to say sorry more than once in order to keep the love of his life. Looking forward to Cole's story next and YES this is a creditworthy Trilogy but don't expect it to be on the same scale of The Stark Trilogy.
Well this time J Kinner has given us The Knights... Evan, Tyler and Cole who are all drool-worthy, rich, successful and charismatic guys each with their own story to be told. In this one Evan has always been attracted to their Mentor's Niece Angie but promised him he would never touch her but now that she's all grown up and his Mentor is dead, he is finding it harder to resist the beautiful, strong and sexy woman that she has become. From the age of 16 Angie has always had an all consuming crush on Evan and, after years of longing and now aged 23, she is now determined to corrupt him however once she starts to tease him she finds out that he's intense, possessive, controlling, romantic and an all Alpha male.... and Angie finds out that she likes it that way.
Horrific pasts, sexual tension, secrets, action-packed, twists, mystery, surprises and some hot sex makes this forbidden love story the start of (hopefully) a great trilogy.
BUT the narration is awful, now I'm all for equal opportunities and all that, but to have a narrator with a sometimes lisp talking about bedroom scenes like.... I want to thpank you, you've got thexy hipths and thoft curves, I want to kith your lipths, thpread for me I want to be inthide you, thon of a bitch, yeth yeth yeth..... well you get the drift, it spoils the thexual intenthity. Also she breaks the sentence-------down and you-------don't get the flow-----of the scene-----without lots of unnecessary------dramatic pauses.
Worth a credit? But despite the narration, this intense sweet love affair is still well worth the credit and here's hoping book 2 will have a different narrator.
These books are always a sure thing for me as I love rugged Highlanders but I find that I can't just listen to them one after another because then they become a bit repetitive so instead I visit the Clans off an on so the format never becomes stale.
I really enjoyed this one which was funny, frustrating, heartbreaking and had a good plot of a jilted lover, memory loss, an evil dead wife who left a terrible legacy, traitors, revenge, loveable children, good secondary characters and a strong Heroine who's hell bent on keeping her man no matter what sh&t the Hero throws her way. There wasn't a great deal of romance and the sex was tame but the feelings they once had for each other were always there somewhere and thankfully surfaced at the end.
Worth a credit? If you're in the mood for a fairly lighthearted Highland tale with an ending that'll leave you with a smile on your face then look no further and these books could each be stand alone listens. I'm slowly working my way through all of Hannah Howell's impressive collection of Clan based Warriors and don't regret any of the credits so YES IMHO worth a credit.
If you're already a fan of the series then this will be an auto download because you know what you're going to get..... a once caged, hot and very Alpha DNA altered half animal/human male finding, claiming and sexing his mate. But there's always plenty of growling and snarling going on because each storyline throws in lots of drama, intrigue, hot sex, action, threats and misunderstandings for the ever growing New Species enclave.
466 (aka Moon) has been shot with a toxic to New Species drug and his old Psychiatrist Joyce is called in to help him. 466 and Joyce were mutually attracted to each other however her ethics stopped her from taking things further. But now, two years later, her regrets, along with 466's mental instability puts his life in danger, which forces her down a very different path..... one that gives him plenty of physical as well as mental help.
Worth a credit? I love these books, yes they get a bit repetitive, but after a few weeks I'm rubbing my hands together eagerly awaiting the next one. This was a great story with some action, emotional and sexy parts however other stories have been hotter but that doesn't stop it from being a very creditworthy listen.
There are some books that just captures your imagination, keeps you enthralled and, if you've had to stop it for any reason, then you're desperate to get back to it..... well this was one of those listens for me. Set in 1784 Ireland when the English Crown was taking Irish land under the pretence of religion, this well-described plot starts off with Connor catching a young pickpocket trying to steal from him. He offers the boy a job on his Estate working alongside his brothers but when the boy actually turns out to be a girl that's when all the fun and action begins.
This isn't a love at first sight romance nor does the Hero pursue the Heroine from the start but it slowly unfolds with drama, desire, secrets, twists, great characters, revenge, treachery, murder and an evil villain all caught-up in a beautiful, strong willed and headstrong young girl's awakening love for the handsome Earl that saved her and the many problems she unwittingly caused. There's 'Robin Hood' type Highwaymen giving to the poor and keeping little for themselves even when they have little money of their own. The H/H's attraction and chemistry grows into an all too short romance (light sex) that takes a sudden painful shocking turn leaving heartache, devastation and an evil blackmailer's cruel and vicious bargain.
Worth a credit? A memorable love story that spans time and defies fate, a close family desperate to stay together and outsmarts the Hangman's noose, great character development and an unpredictable, tense, fast-paced, action packed plot makes this a very creditworthy listen.

The Sysadmin's Daily Grind: Rsnapshot
The principle behind Rsnapshot is nothing new: use Rsync and SSH to back up files to another computer. What sets Rsnapshot apart is its simple setup and its rich collection of features.
Rsnapshot [1] gives admins a space-saving backup system. The Rsnapshot tool leaves long, configurable intervals between full backups and creates daily incremental backups on the target system; and this saves a lot of space compared to a full backup. The rotational logic that underlies the system makes heavy use of hardlinks. Under the hood, Rsnapshot uses SSH and Rsync. I decided to install the 89KB tarball on one of my lab systems, which happens to run Slackware 10, but DEB and RPM packages are available as downloads from [1] if you prefer. The following commands were all it took to install the Perl-based system: tar xvzpf U rsnapshot-1.1.6.tar.gz cd rsnapshot-1.1.6 ./configure --sysconfdir=/etc su make install

Daily Star
---- —
Shop Talk is a weekly column featuring locally owned and operated businesses. This week, we talk to Holley Giles, who with her husband, Richard, owns the farm, store and inn.
How long have you lived in the area?
We moved here 11 years ago.
Tell me about your business:
Lucky Dog Farm is a certified organic produce farm. We sell our produce at the Callicoon Farmers Market, the Pakatakan Farmers Market, two markets in New York City (Fort Greene and Union Square), as well as at Lucky Dog Farm Store.
We have also done a community supported agriculture program where people pay to have shares of our harvest.
Lucky Dog Farm Store specializes in selling locally produced farm products, organic and bulk foods and assorted other items from local craftspeople. The Hamden Inn is a popular lunch-time stop with homemade soups, sandwiches, salads and specials with a beverage service and dinner menu for evening meals.
Describe a typical day in your business:
We are up and working by 6 or 7 in the morning, feeding chickens, harvesting for farmers markets and transplanting seedlings into the field. The store operation begins by 6 or 7 in the morning also to bake fresh bread. The store opens at 10 a.m. and a typical day involves cashiering, baking, stocking shelves, and packing bulk foods.
How did you get started in this line of work?
We wanted to farm and live in the country.
What have you learned from your work?
The value and rewards of good old-fashioned work.
What is the most challenging part of what you do?
Getting through the lean winter months is a challenge.
What are some advantages as well as drawbacks of doing business in this area?
It's a beautiful area to live in and enjoy nature, but since our businesses are to a large degree seasonal, the winters can be tough.
What advice would you give to someone trying to enter your field of work?
Be ready to work hard.

TUSCUMBIA, Ala. (AP) — A man has been found guilty of murder and abuse of a corpse in the October 2011 strangulation death of Amanda Taylor.
Ronald Weems spent over an hour on the stand Thursday before being found guilty. Weems says Taylor attacked him in his basement and he blacked out during part of the fight. He told the court he panicked when he regained consciousness. He later admitted to dismembering Taylor's body, but says co-defendant Ashley Greenhill killed Taylor.
WAFF-TV (http://bit.ly/10WQB9T ) reports Weems told the court while he was in jail, God gave him visions that he was not the one who killed Taylor.

I noticed a lot more Server disconnections since BO2 was realised! I would guess that it wasn't your internet for the online problems but instead Call of Duty's Servers that were the problem!

Official Charity Highlight: Premiere Charity – TEAM TO END AIDS (T2)
In 2012, nearly 300 dedicated charity athletes ran the LA Marathon with TEAM TO END AIDS (T2), making T2 the largest charity involved in the 2012 LA Marathon. As part of the T2 training program, this group of remarkable individuals raised over $325,000 for the lifesaving care and prevention programs of AIDS Project Los Angeles (APLA).
APLA provides direct care services and HIV prevention programs for 11,000 Angelenos who are living with HIV/AIDS or are at risk of contracting the disease. In 2011, APLA's Vance North Necessities of Life Program food pantries distributed more than 150,000 bags of free groceries and personal hygiene products to clients living with HIV/AIDS.
APLA Dental Services offers a full range of low- to no-cost dental care in two state-of-the-art clinics and through a mobile dental van that provides care throughout L.A. County. APLA also offers mental health counseling, treatment education, housing support, and more bilingual programs and services that enhance both the health and quality of life of people living with HIV.
The funds raised by T2 also help power APLA's HIV prevention education programs, which are housed in the APLA Health & Wellness Center in South Los Angeles. These programs target communities that are most at risk of HIV infection, including gay men of color, Native American / Alaska Natives, and people who use crystal meth. At the heart of our prevention efforts is our HIV testing program, which offers fast, free, and confidential HIV testing along with counseling and referrals to care.
TEAM TO END AIDS (T2) participants raise awareness and much-needed funds for the fight against AIDS. Many participants are complete beginners when they sign up, but after completing T2's endurance training program, T2 athletes are well-equipped to cross the finish line. During training season, participants receive constant support from experienced coaches, knowledgeable staff, and supportive teammates.

Lockport Union-Sun & Journal — Jeers: It's winter and the roads aren't always going to be perfect; we understand that. However, certain standards must be met and on Wednesday in the City of Lockport, they weren't met. After an overnight snowfall, many of the city's primary roads were still slick at 11 a.m. and even at 2 p.m. We can understand this being the case on a secondary or tertiary street, but when you're slipping through an intersection on High Street at 11 a.m. — near a 20 mph school zone no less — something's amiss.
Cheers: There's plenty of action afoot in the canal district, with Canal Street the feature player. The Lockport Locks Heritage Distirct Committtee is moving forward with plans to create gateway exhibits on the street as part of an "interpretive" plan to tell the story of the canal and its historic Flight of Five. Speaking of which, restoration could begin this summer, with a finish date sometime in 2014. Throw in some national television exposure for the Lockport Caves tour and an ice cream shop moving in, and it all adds up to positive energy in the district.
Jeers: Communication Breakdown. It's not only the name of a Led Zeppelin song, but it's also what led to some 150 people who received parking tickets being fined above and beyond the cost. Last July the police department suggested raising parking fines by $10. City councilmembers agreed, but then never took up a formal vote. Yet, new tickets listing the higher fines were issued starting Jan. 1. Oops. Making matters worse, the council passed the new fees on Jan. 16 and thought it could make the fines retroactive to Jan. 1. Nope. Couldn't legally do that, councilmembers were told. People who were overcharged must contact the city to get their money back, not the other way around even though it was the city's fault. Strike three.

Lil Wayne's 'Dedication 4' Delayed Again
The wait for Weezy continues. Lil Wayne has pushed back his mixtape Dedication 4 once again.
According to DJ Drama, the fourth installment in Weezy's Dedication series will now arrive on Monday, September 3. "Sep. 3rd. #d4 ….." tweeted Drama.
Originally due August 15, the tape was postponed until August 30 out of respect for his friend 2 Chainz, who dropped his debut Based on a T.R.U. Story. But it appears as though the project is still not done.
The Gangsta Grillz release will feature a collaboration with Nicki Minaj as well as remixes to 2 Chainz' "No Lie," Ca$h Out's "Cashin' Out," Chief Keef's "I Don't Like," and Meek Mill and Big Sean's "Burn."
