This movie really explores the idea of "Can good people do bad things." If you knew one of your family members was brutally killed by some hardened criminals in your posession, what would you do?
I found this film to be very disturbing and brutal. Not in a sense of the graphic violence we see today in films, but in an all out more horrifically realistic way. The scenes with Crug and the others torturing the two girls was sick and twisted.
You have to look at the times and budget for this movie. It will not be a hollywood 5mil budgeted film. Craven really explores the sick and twisted subconscious of the criminal mind. What is so terrifying to me is that some people have done things like that to other human beings in real life.
Last House on the Left (1972)freakyhorrorbitch on Friday, October 26, 2007 - 12:00am
I would have to agree with all of you who believe this movie to be a cult classic. Seeing the uncut version is a MUST! You have to keep in mind the budget allowed for the film (90,000) and the times (early 70's) it was too much for that audience - i even heard of people throwing up, passing out, or running to the projection booth to cut up the film!!! It isn't a horror film in the sense of hack and slash, but definately disturbing, and one for the ages!

Seafood Sustainability
H-E-B Seafood Products
Seafood & Your Health
What is the definition of "sustainable seafood"?
"Environmentally sustainable" seafood can be defined as fish and shellfish that are raised or harvested in a manner that protects not only the target seafood species but also the ecosystem, so that future generations can have access to the resource.
Why is seafood sustainability important?
Protecting the long-term sustainability of the world's seafood resources is important to all of us—including fishermen, fishing communities, seafood businesses, retailers and consumers who want to continue to enjoy their favorite varieties of seafood over time. In addition, we have a responsibility to ensure that future generations can enjoy the many delicious varieties of seafood and also have continued access to the health benefits that seafood provides.
What is Aquaculture and why is it important?
Aquaculture is the cultivation of marine and freshwater finfish and shellfish. If we are to continue meeting the growing demand for healthy, nutritious seafood, we will need a viable aquaculture industry. In March 2009, the United Nations reported that aquaculture accounted for 47% of the world's seafood supply in 2006.
What laws are in place in the United States to protect the fishery resource?
The 1976 law known as the Magnuson Fishery Conservation and Management Act created eight Regional Fishery Management Councils to manage the "exclusive economic zone" adjacent to coastal states. These Councils develop science-based fishery management plans that are then approved by the NOAA Fisheries Service.
In 2007, the U.S. Congress updated our nation's fishery laws and mandated that regional Fishery Management Councils have science-based regulations in place by 2011 to end overfishing in all U.S. fisheries.Return to Top
I've heard bad things about farm-raised seafood. Can it really be sustainable?
The development of standards for aquaculture practices by third party groups such as the Global Aquaculture Alliance (GAA) and the WWF's Aquaculture Dialogues (soon to be Aquaculture Stewardship Council (ASC)) are helping to ensure that sustainability considerations are fundamental to fish farming operations. H-E-B's suppliers for key farm-raised products such as shrimp, tilapia, salmon and catfish are third-party certified or in the process of seeking certification. Additionally, our suppliers do not use growth hormones in their farming operations.
Why do you sell imported seafood?
The short answer is there simply is not enough domestic seafood supply to feed consumer demand. In 2009 more than 84% of seafood consumed in the United States was imported. At H-E-B we are proud to offer a variety of domestically wild-caught and farm-raised species. Additionally, we source from around the world to offer the greatest variety of the freshest, highest-quality seafood possible.
Why did you stop selling orange roughy?
Because we care about the health and sustainability of orange roughy, we will no longer sell orange roughy, as soon we have worked through our existing inventory and supplier commitments. We will only consider selling orange roughy if at some point in the future it is certified sustainable by a reputable third-party organization.
Are there health benefits to including seafood in my diet?
Fish and shellfish are an important part of a healthy diet. They are low in saturated fat and contain high-quality protein and other essential nutrients, including omega-3 fatty acids, which are beneficial for cardiovascular health. For additional information and recommendations on healthy eating and including seafood in your diet, visit the U.S. Department of Agriculture's Center for Nutrition Policy and Promotion.
Should I be concerned about mercury in seafood?
The 2010 USDA report on Dietary Guidelines for Americans concludes that the health benefits of consuming a variety of cooked seafood outweighs the risks associated with methyl mercury. For additional information visit the FDA's food safety website.
Should pregnant or nursing women and young children be concerned about mercury in seafood?
According to the FDA / EPA 2004 advice on mercury and seafood, "A well-balanced diet that includes a variety of fish and shellfish can contribute to heart health and children's proper growth and development. So, women and young children in particular should include fish or shellfish in their diets due to the many nutritional benefits." The FDA and EPA advise women who may become pregnant, pregnant women, nursing mothers and young children to avoid eating Shark, Swordfish, King Mackerel and Tilefish, which can contain high levels of mercury. The FDA also advises limiting their seafood consumption to no more than 12 ounces per week. For additional information visit the FDA's food safety website.

Popular VARIO®
This popular VARIO® chemistry pumping unit provides vacuum control by precise and continuous adaptation of the diaphragm pump's motor speed. The integrated CVC 3000 vacuum controller is able to perform fully automatic evaporations with the push of a button. The compact size and low weight of the pumping unit offer great convenience in the lab. The pump's variable motor speed responds to demand, reducing energy waste and mechanical wear, ensuring unrivalled service life for the diaphragms. The pumping unit is also popular for its nearly silent operation. The PC 3001 is based on our MD 1C VARIO-SP chemistry diaphragm pump; its 2 mbar ultimate vacuum is ideal for applications even with high-boiling-point solvents. The highly efficient and insulated exhaust vapor condenser has a very compact design, and provides near-100-percent recovery of solvents
This pumping unit is ideal for vacuum applications with high-boiling-solvents. The hysteresis-free vacuum control prevents superheating and foaming and therefore protects samples and ensures a constantly high process safety. The unique controller automatically detects vapor pressure and automatically adjusts the vacuum level to the process requirements, making it ideal even for complex evaporations. If cooling water is not available or water conservation is critical, consider the PC 3001 VARIO TE with dry ice condenser, or the PC 3001 VARIO with the coolant-free Peltronic™ condenser. For exceptionally large amounts of vapor, the PC 3001 VARIO +IK — with an additional condenser on the vacuum side — is an excellent choice.
Performance features:
- easily operated CVC 3000 vacuum controller with clear text menus, with integrated venting valve
- automatic adaptation of the vacuum level throughout the process for high process reproducibility and unattended operation, short process times due to zero-fluctuation (hysteresis-free) vacuum control, even for large amounts of vapor
- excellent ultimate vacuum even with gas ballast
- whisper quiet and ultra low vibration
- excellent environmental friendliness due to efficient solvent recovery

The Port Arthur News
Valero Energy Corp. and The Premcor Pipeline Co. are suing the Jefferson County Appraisal District, claiming the estimated values of its property exceed market value.
In a petition filed by the companies, Valero and Premcor said the appraised value of their properties "is excessive and unlawful" and "exceeds the median appraised value of a reasonable number of comparable properties."
This case marks the sixth lawsuit Valero has filed against the appraisal office in the last seven years. The first five cases, starting in 2006, were bundled into a $23.9 million settlement won by the energy company.

Since it's the Olympic season (what?!??!), I have a feeling a lot of the top teams who have pulled out/decided not to go switched their gears to the horizon as soon as Worlds ended. No one wants to waste precious practice and planning time, I suppose.
Well, I have nothing intelligent to add to this thread (nothing new about that), except to say that this is a great thread title!

If you want to restrict pollurion and noise from the area, close Sepulveda Blvd and all the other major streets from traffic and ban all the house fraus driving their oversized SUVs around GrandView School and the rest of town. The least of my irritations are the occasional Cessna at 3,500 feet and the Coash Guard chopper high over the beach!

James Carl Nelson tells the dramatic true story of five brilliant young soldiers from Harvard, a thrilling tale of combat and heroism in the First World War.
Five Lieutenants tells the story of five young Harvard men who took up the call to arms in the spring of 1917 and met differing fates in the maelstrom of battle on the Western Front in 1918. Delving deep into the motivations, horrific experiences, and ultimate fates of this Harvard-educated quintet—and by extension of the brilliant young officer class that left its collegiate and post-collegiate pursuits to enlist in the Army and lead America's rough-and-ready doughboys—Five Lieutenants presents a unique, timeless, and fascinating account of citizen soldiers at war, and of the price these extraordinary men paid while earnestly giving all they had in an effort to end "the war to end all wars."
Drawing upon the subjects' intimate, eloquent, and uncensored letters and memoirs, this is a fascinating microcosm of the American experience in the World War One, and of the horrific experiences and hardships of the educated class of young men who were relied upon to lead doughboys in the trenches and, ultimately, in open battle.

Some Plans in Arts and Science require the student to take supporting courses. These are courses in a subject different from that of the Plan but are required prerequisites for upper year courses. An example would be a first year calculus course in a Physics Plan.
When combining Plans in Medial or Major-Minor degrees, courses common to the two Plans cannot be shared between the requirements of the two Plans. In such cases, an alternative must be chosen. Supporting courses are the exception to this rule: a supporting course in one Plan can be used towards the requirements of the other, increasing the number of electives available to the student. See the Degree Programs section of the Arts and Science calendar for complete details of how courses are shared between Plans.

It is not just the current Arsenal team that is troubled by ongoing injury problems, it seems that the up-and-coming youngsters are also suffering this season, and the two Arsenal players on loan at Colchester United have destroyed the form of Joe Dunne's team.
Eastmond had to return to Arsenal this weekend after breaking his metatarsal in training on Friday, and Sanchez Watt earlier returned with a serious hamstring injury. Dunne is extremely angry that the team is useless without his Arsenal loanees.
Colchester were toothless in the 2-0 defeat at home to Oldham this weekend, and Dunne's anger turned into a rant at the U's team. He said: "We've lost Craig for good.

College bound; Kosienski, Wershoven sign commitments to NCAA programs
By John Goralski
Sports Writer
They picked up their pens with the precision of a synchronized swimming team, and began scrawling their signatures across the papers before them. Since cutting their teeth on youth travel teams, Erica Kosienski and Nicole Wershoven have been charging towards the goal as a tandem. This time there was just a bigger goal.
On Wednesday, Feb. 6, the former Lady Knight soccer players sat at a conference table in the high school and signed letters of intent to play soccer at the collegiate level. A misty-eyed Sal Penta beamed as the varsity coach greeted reporters to the event.
He said that moments like these rank right up there with any varsity win, including his state title.
"You coach years and years but you really get the sense that this is what it's all about," said the coach, "to see these girls grow up to be young women, to see them going on with their lives, and knowing that you had a little responsibility of making them what they are."
For Kosienski, the day marked the start of an even bigger chapter in her soccer career. For four years, she dominated the scoring in the challenging CCC West with 47 career goals and 21 assists. She was a four-year all-conference player. Twice, she was named to Connecticut's all-state roster. That's why it was no surprise that Kosienski's signature signaled the start of a NCAA division one career at Boston University.
"There's going to one level there, and it's going to be good. It's going to push me as a player, and it's going to make me better than I am now," she said. "Not only is it a great academic school, but I went there and met the team and the coaches. They are just amazing. I know that I'm going to fit in there.
They were very welcoming, and I love the team and love the city. It was just perfect."
Penta said that BU coaches were attracted to Kosienski's efforts in practice and in games. They liked her speed, her leadership, and her ability to lift those around her. Penta said that he only spoke to them once, and all that they wanted to know is if Kosienski was as good off the field as she is in the games.
"It was a 45 second conversation. The coach just wanted to ask about her practice habits and her leadership qualities. I let her know what they are, and she said, 'That's exactly what I thought they were. Thank you very much,'" he said. "The thing about Erica is that she can play anywhere on the field. She's been playing forward for us for four years, but you could drop her back to the midfield. She has the capability and knowledge to do that. She can be a defender or whatever they want her to do."
Kosienski said that the process has been a long one, stretching back to emails and phone calls in her sophomore year, but her final decision came down to Boston University, UConn, and Providence College. She settled on the Terriers after a campus visit and plans to study for a career in physical therapy.
"It's been a huge day. I've been looking forward to this for so long. In fact, I can actually sign this paper after I put all that time into soccer. It's amazing," she said. "My family has supported me so much with all the money and all the time they spent bringing me to tournaments, practicing every week. I couldn't have done this without them."
Wershoven said that she was proud to be able to share the moment with her former teammate. For the past three seasons, they have battled side-by-side on the varsity field. Wershoven contributed with 18 career goals and 11 assists as a forward and was named to the all-conference roster as a senior.
"I wanted to be here for Erica just to witness her signing," Wershoven said. "I know it's been a long time coming and a lot of hard work for the both of us, but it's exciting to see us finally make a final decision."
Wershoven made her commitment to play soccer next year at Castleton State College in Vermont, and Penta said that the Lady Knight forward will be a great asset to the division three program.

Recently, my kids and their friends wanted to have a lemonade stand at our home on North Court Street. This is something we do very often and have for the last five years since we moved here.
A police officer showed up informing us that someone had called them to complain that the lemonade stand should be shut down because my kids were selling FOOD ITEMS (peanuts). They were also selling lemonade, water, sodas and snow cones. I don't know why someone would be so ugly in their hearts to call the police to shut down a CHILDREN'S lemonade stand, but I am sure those individuals must not have a very happy life. Side note — the children were raising money for the Heartland Humane Society and raised $75, and we purchased dog and cat food and treats, which were handed out to every dog.
This letter is to tell readers that we will be having another lemonade stand on June 1 with all proceeds going to the people of Moore, Okla., due to the tornado tragedy. There will be NO cost for any item. It will be donation only, and everything will go to the Moore Public School Foundation.
Let's see how big of a turnout we can get and show people that Ottumwa IS a great town full of wonderful people.

Eating Out: The Battery offers seafood, steaks in downtown Johnson City9:12 am | November 2, 2012
I was one member of a large dining party to recently visit The Battery in Johnson City. This was my first visit to this new downtown attraction, as was the case with several in my party.
The Battery is located in a large, prominent building on Spring Street in the heart of downtown Johnson City. The building's former occupant, Sunny's Cafeteria, closed its doors several years ago, so it's great to see the attractive space occupied again.
The Battery opened for business this spring, and has steadily made a name for itself among the downtown Johnson City restaurants. The interior of the restaurant makes an immediate good first impression. The redesign has resulted in a beautiful space, perhaps one of the best in Johnson City. Seating is available at tables arranged around two bars – a large bar dominating the front entrance and a second bar and plush lounge area near the back of the restaurant. A few televisions are located in the bar areas.
The tabletops are a polished, black lacquer that suits such design elements as navy blue walls and a lot of exposed brick. Windows are draped with canvas hangings and shades. Artistic ceiling fans, Cuban influences in signage displayed on the walls, a brass relief of a tropical fish, an abundance of potted faux palms and other greenery come together for a setting of noteworthy ambiance.
The hip, nightclubbish ambiance carries what could be considered by some to be a few drawbacks. The lighting is subdued to the point that several of us huddled around the faint illumination cast by the candle votives on the tables to read the offerings. The restaurant's patrons and staff are a bustling and energetic combination. The high ceilings also probably play a role in the acoustics that make for difficult conversation. Diners can converse with their immediate neighbors, but conversation with people at the other end of the table was not really possible. For those seeking excitement and a fast pace, the atmosphere is more than suitable, but fans of more sedate settings might not appreciate these elements as much.
After our group got settled at its table, our server, Bryan, did a good job taking drink orders, providing menus and answering questions while also delivering some complementary baskets of fresh-baked bread and a scrumptious butter-herb spread that won instant acclaim from every member of the group.
We began with several dining party members choosing appetizers from a selection that included Battery Shrimp And Grits, Jumbo Shrimp Cocktail, Fried Green Tomatoes, Lobster Fritters, Fried Oysters and Jalapeños, Tempura-battered Asparagus and Calamari.
I chose the Scallops Rockefeller as my appetizer, which was listed as a new item among the meal-starters listed on the menu.
A friend and I made a bargain to share our appetizers, which resulted in me sharing some Lobster Fritters from his order while he got to sample some of my meal-starter.
The Scallops Rockefeller won, hands-down, the honors for best appetizer from those samples. This dish featured six scallops, served on the half-shell topped with bubbling cheese, bread crumbs and other ingredients. An elusive element in the mix gave a hint of fruit, perhaps mango. These scallops were really appealing.
I also liked the Lobster Fritters, particularly the spicy remoulade sauce that accompanied these morsels. These fritters resembled big, plump hushpuppies enhanced with some sweet, mild lobster meat.
After we finished with the appetizers, we were able to turn our attention to selecting an entree. The selections are divided basically into two categories — seafood and steakhouse items.
Some of the items from the sea that attracted my attention included the Broiled Shrimp Scampi, Pan-seared Carolina Rainbow Trout, Jumbo Panko Crusted Fried Shrimp and the Battery Fish-N-Chips. Steak offerings that tempted my appetite included the 10-ounce Filet Mignon, 12-ounce New York Strip and the 8-ounce Black Angus Sirloin. I also noticed an interesting chicken dish — Chicken Scalloppine Southern Style — listed on the menu. All entrees come with two side dishes; a side salad can be added for a cost of $1.
For my main dish, I chose the Maryland Style Jumbo Lump Crab Cakes, which I paired with Bacon Braised Collared Greens (our server announced that this side dish was his favorite) and Grilled Vegetable Medley.
Other side dishes available include Grilled Asparagus, Loaded Baked Potato, Steamed Broccoli, Creamed Corn, Sauteed Green Beans and Salt and Vinegar Fries.
Other members of the group ordered the Yellowfin Tuna, Battery Fish-N-Chips, Pan Seared George's Bank and the 8-ounce Hamburger topped with Aged Cheddar. Other side dishes tried by my dining party included the Loaded Baked Potato and the Red Bliss Scalloped Potato.
My two crab cakes, drizzled with remoulade sauce, were sensational. They didn't suffer from too much breading, which allowed the mild, sweet-flavored crabmeat to shine. The plate was garnished with sprigs of fresh herbs.
I also agreed with the server that the Bacon Braised Collared Greens were quite tasty. I also liked the medley of grilled vegetables, which included red onion, yellow squash, mushrooms and bell pepper strips.
The Grilled Yellowfin Tuna, served with Black Mission Figs and Shiraz-Balsamic glaze, arrived attractively presented in braided slices of medium-rare tuna steak. The house recommends this dish be prepared rare or medium rare, as is commonly considered best for tuna steak. The sweet, tangy glaze provided a delightful accompaniment to this mild fish.
Dessert offerings that evening included a Chocolate Cake, Key Lime Pie and Coconut Cake. I decided to try a piece of the Coconut Cake, which came garnished with a few blueberries. Other friends tried the other two desserts. The Key Lime Pie also came with a few blueberries, while the Chocolate Cake was drizzled with a raspberry sauce.
My Coconut Cream Cake consisted of two layers of moist cake, each filled with a thick, creamy coconut custard, and the whole frosted in a layer of glossy white icing and a coating of grated coconut. Fans of this tropical dessert will love The Battery's version, which elevates it beyond the commonplace into a truly scrumptious treat.
The restaurant offers a raw bar for oysters, listing Blue Point, Apalachicola and Chesapeake oysters. Since August, The Battery has also been serving lunch, with a menu offering such items as Popcorn Shrimp Po'boys, Jumbo Fried Shrimp-n-Chips and Jerk Grilled Chicken Sandwich.
Dinner at The Battery proved a memorable experience, both for the unique atmosphere and the delicious food. Downtown Johnson City is steadily building up a list of noteworthy dining destinations, and The Battery more than holds its own with any of them.
AT A GLANCE: The Battery, 601 Spring St., Johnson City. 929-FOOD. Tuesday- Saturday, 4 p.m.-2:30 a.m. Dinner entrees range from $13-$31. Credit cards accepted. Carryout available. Full service bar available.

The Mankato Free Press
---- — Being a journalist is one of those jobs where, because of the job, you end up meeting a lot of people. It is, quite frankly, the best part of the job, and one of the things that makes the low wages sufferable.
And every so often you meet someone who makes you thankful you just happened to be in the right place at the right time in this crazy world to have been able to meet someone really special.
Such is the case for me and a little girl named Madison Harbarth, a kid who looooooooves Taylor Swift.
You might remember this kid from an article I wrote in the Free Press last year. Or maybe not. Either way, here's her story:
While still in utero, doctors discovered she had a rare disorder called sacral agenesis syndrome, which is characterized by abnormal development of the spine. The lower half of Madison's body (including her feet, legs, tailbone and even her spine) didn't completely develop. She's been going to Gillette Children's Specialty Healthcare for surgeries and assistive technology services since birth, where doctors continue to monitor her abnormally shaped spine.
She's such an inspiration that Gillette's used her in their "Cure Pity" campaign, an effort to change the way society looks at people with disabilities.
When I met Madison, I learned that her love for Taylor Swift was just as adorable as her piano playing, or the way she holds hands with her friends on the playground (she in her wheelchair, friend walking alongside). She knows all the diva's songs. A poster of the music star hangs on the wall in her room.
And now she's got something else she can hang in her room.
FOX News in the Twin Cities caught up with Madison after the Taylor Swift concert. It seems Madison got some private time before the show with her idol. When I watched that footage ... well ... I guess I got a little emotional.
It appears Madison had been granted a wish by the Kids Wish Network, which identifies needy kids and makes their wish come true. And anyone who knows Madison knows there would really only be one wish on her mind: to meet her idol, Taylor Swift.
Swift personalized an 8-by-10 photo with the inscription, "To Madison: You're beautiful and perfect. Love, Taylor."
Ever since a fateful fall concert at Garfield Elementary School several years ago, I've been OK with T-Swizzle, as the kids call her. I may not always be a fan of her songs, but anyone who can get a gym full of listless sixth-graders to belt out a song as their parents watched is OK by me. (No, she didn't show up, obviously. But the kids that year persuaded the music teacher to let them sing "Love Song," a rousing and loud rendition that salvaged a performance marred by kids falling off bleachers and one song that had to be stopped and restarted because of, well, suckiness.)
So Taylor's been OK in my book. And now she just got a little better. In an age when pop stars are making news for all the wrong moves on stage, Taylor Swift is backstage quietly giving a little Mankato girl a moment she'll never, ever forget.

If you're going out of town for the Labor Day weekend, you'll have lots of company. AAA is projecting 34.1 million Americans will be traveling at least 50 miles from home, a 4.2 percent increase from last year. Nearly 1.4 million Ohioans will also be traveling, up 3.3 percent.
"This is the highest number that we've seen for Labor Day travel since the decline during the recession," said Cheryl Parker, AAA Corporate Public Affairs Manager. "It appears the improving economy is helping to get more people feeling more comfortable about taking a road trip for this holiday weekend."
The cases of two more voters accused of casting ballots in Ohio while living in other states have been referred by the Hamilton County Board of Elections to the county prosecutor for investigation.
The two are Naomi Lewin, a former classical music host at radio station WGUC, who moved to New York City in 2009 and Timothy A. Merman, who owns a home in Edgewood, Ky., but has voted from a business address in the Cincinnati suburb of Fairfax.
Voting from an improper address is a felony crime.
If your medicine cabinet is overflowing with old or unused medications, you now have a place to dispose of them safely. Kentucky now has almost 150 permanent prescription drug disposal locations in the state.
Union Baptist Cemetery is tucked away in a quiet spot off Cleves-Warsaw Road in Covedale. It's the oldest Baptist African-American cemetery in Cincinnati, run by the oldest black Baptist congregation in the city.
It's also a monument to about 120 free black men. During the Civil War, they took up arms and fought as soldiers against a Confederate army that would have kept their people in bondage.
Cincinnati's Horseshoe Casino will be the first venue in Ohio to host a World Series of Poker circuit event.
The 12-day tournament begins September 19 and runs through September 30.
Casino General Manager Kevin Kline anticipates 8,000 people will compete.
"Poker players will be traveling in from all over the country. We expect this to be a great feeder event," says Kline. "We expect (hotel) rooms to get filled up."

DALLAS (AP) Former President George W. Bush will return to Africa next week to help renovate another women's clinic.
Bush's office in Dallas on Saturday announced the 43rd president and his wife, Laura, will travel to Livingstone, Zambia, in support of the George W. Bush Institute global health initiative.
The Bushes last July helped renovate a women's health center in Kabwe, about 90 miles north of the Zambian capital, Lusaka. Officials say that center has screened and treated nearly 30,000 women since opening last summer.
The clinic in Livingstone is scheduled to open July 1.
Following their trip to Zambia, the Bushes will travel to Dar es Salaam, Tanzania, to host the Bush Institute's African First Ladies Summit, Investing in Women: Strengthening Africa.

Tears flowed Monday at Aloha High School as hundreds of teens watched a video about the life of Rachael Scott.
Scott was the first student killed during the 1999 shooting at Columbine High School in Colorado which left 13 dead.
In the wake of Rachel's death, her father created a national campaign called 'Rachel's Challenge'. The campaign is based in part on Rachael's own diaries. She'd written about her dream to start a chain reaction of kindess through out the world.
Now, Portland area kids are getting the chance to learn about Rachel and take her challenge to act with kindess and compassion toward one another.
"It was really moving. It made me realize alot of things," said a girl with a black ball cap and pink earphones emblazoned with a white skull and crossbones.
Aloha High planned an additional presentation of Rachel's Challenge Monday, October 17, 2011 at 7pm. The presentation is is free and open to the public.

Grow Light Timers and Contacors
Almost every grower will want to automate their lighting cycles. Manual switching is possible although it is highly impractical and allows for timing mistakes which could be costly for your plants.So you will need a high quality timer to control your light cycles with precision and our high quality Grasslin timers are the ideal choice. If you are going to use a timer with a High Intensity grow light then you will need to protect that timer from high start-up currents by using a Timer Contactor. These simple devices insulate your timer from high currents thus ensuring that they cannot get damaged.A common effect when if you don't use a contactor when using a timer with a HID grow light is that the timer can become damaged and will not switch back off. This can leave your lights on continuously until you next check on them and this can cause havoc with the growth cycle of your plants.We sell a number of contactors with different power ratings that you can match to your grow room, and we also sell the innovative Exolux Super 6 which combines both timer and contactor for switching up to 6x 600 Watt lights whilst only using two wall plugs.

CGOV helps community organization improve home in Montgomery
Members of the professional and administrative staff from the Center for Government and Public Affairs volunteered several hours on June 8 to work with the Montgomery ministry House-to-House to insulate a two-story home on Montgomery's west side. Center staffers who pitched in included Senior Director Matthew Duke, Bob Ashurst, LeeAnna Bonner, Jeff Blancett (and wife, daughter, and two teens from St. James High School), Sarah Jones, Lindsay Mann and her husband, Suman Majumdar, and Alan Reid. House-to-House is a Christian mentoring ministry in an under-resourced neighborhood on the west side of Montgomery. House-to-House purchases and renovates abandoned homes in an effort to provide better housing for neighborhood residents. They are able to do this with the help of hundreds of volunteers and several qualified investors. To qualify for home ownership, families are required to go through mentorship and training in household budgeting, parenting and Christian discipleship.

CLEVELAND (AP) -- Five of seven men accused of conspiring to steal copper from about two dozen electrical substations in northeast Ohio have been sentenced to prison after pleading guilty.
The U.S. Attorney's Office in Cleveland says the prison terms range from 15 months to more than four years. A sixth defendant was given two years of supervised release. The seventh man will be sentenced next year.
Authorities say the copper was sold to scrap yards for more than $15,000.
Prosecutors say the thefts created a risk of blackouts and threatened the safety of utility workers who maintain power stations. The defendants have been ordered to pay First Energy Corp. a total of more than $242,000 for emergency repairs made after the thefts, which occurred between January and May.

As Thanksgiving approaches in the next couple of weeks, the deals for turkeys can't be beat.
Vons is offering a great deal with a $25 purchase. You can get a Safeway turkey as low as $7 and a Butterball turkey as low as $11 on the same $25 purchase because they are 2 different products. If they don't have them in stock, get a rain check.
Last week Vons was offering an additional $10 off if you spent $75 on the same day transaction for your next purchase. In addition, they have weekly in store coupons that come in the mail on Tuesday or in the store.
Many products on sale now are items used for Thanksgiving or another holiday meal. Take advantage of these great money saving opportunities. I don't find the employees very helpful about promoting their sales. It is our job as a smart consumer to do our homework and save as much money as we can especially in this tough economy.
If you love potatoes, I suggest waiting closer to the days you want to use them. Many times you can get a 10 pound bag of potatoes for as low as .99 at Ralphs, Smart and Final or Jon's Market during the holidays. Once in a while Von's will have sales on their potatoes but seldom for that low of a price.
If you are looking for a special gift for yourself and want to impress your family and friends with great mashed potatoes, I suggest investing in a potato ricer. You can get them at Bed, Bath and Beyond for as low as $19.99 plus using their money saving 20% off or $5 off coupon will save you even more money. Williams-Sonoma also sells them but the price is more expensive.
Here is a great mashed potato recipe. Russet or Yukon Gold potatoes are perfectly fine. Clean and peel the potatoes. Cut potatoes in cubes. Put the potatoes in boiling water for about 20 minutes. Check with a fork to make sure they are soft. Drain the potatoes saving 1 cup of the reserved boiling water. Put the potatoes in the potato ricer. It will squeeze out all of the excess water. The potatoes will look like they are being grated as if it was a cheese grater.
In a small pot, warm up butter or margarine with milk or cream. Use equal portions of each. An example: ½ milk or cream and a couple tablespoons of butter or margarine. Some people use buttermilk as well. Do not boil. Add the cream and butter mixture to the potatoes. Use a potato masher. Do not mix the potatoes with too much liquid or they will become soupy. Add a little of the reserved potato water if the potatoes seem dry or heat up more of the cream and butter mixture. Add salt and pepper to taste. The potatoes will be creamy and delicious with no lumps.
Utilizing these suggestions will save you money and get you started to a great holiday meal.
