UN Petition for the Unborn ChildPosted on September 30th, 2008 by Paycheck in Pro-Life Activism
Dear Friend,
Ground ZeroPosted on September 30th, 2008 by Paycheck in Pro-Life Activism
I've been down at Ground Zero a couple of times. Nothing extraordinary happened either time. I felt the place was cold – not the weather, the place. I spent an hour there both times. Each time I was amazed at how quickly the hour went. I have a place where I stand. It's over a manhole cover, right before the curb. I stand there holding a sign and saying the Rosary and the Divine Chaplet. I try to keep my focus. I watch people and their reactions. Some smirk. Some walk a little quicker. Others put their head down. Still others appear clueless.
How is it that such killing centres exist? Where is the anger and the outrage? Why are we so comfortable with these extermination chambers? And when will it all end? Will I see the end of abortion in my lifetime? Or will it continue well after my death? Just how long is God going to let this slaughter continue?
When I think of what an abortion does to an unborn child, I become ill. As a father, I can't stand it. I really can't. I lose my mind and my composure if I think about it too much. Fathers protect. They defend. And yet we can't do a damn thing. We're helpless. No one will listen to the unborn children's screams. We have no legal or political options. There is nothing we can do except watch and witness, standing there in front of Morgentaler's Abortion Mill, begging our Eternal Father to DO SOMETHING. God help us. Please. Give us some hope. Just once. That's all I need to show me that we are not doing this in vain. Please. Let your kingdom come. Just one time. That's not too much to ask. Hope. Hope. Hope. Give me hope.

Canadian Bishops Issue Pastoral Letter Encouraging Faithfulness to Anti-Contraception Encyclical Humanae Vitae
By John-Henry Westen
Although the Bishops' statement did not address the infamous Winnipeg Statement – a document dissenting from Humanae Vitae which was issued by the Canadian bishops on September 27, 1968 and never recanted – the present document is in full conformity with Humanae Vitae.
"There has to be a vigorous application of what's in the document at the parish level which would impact counseling to married couples, teaching them the 'why'," he said. Bishops have to commit themselves to teaching since there has been a vacuum in their teaching on the matter for forty years."
Listen to Obama. He knows what he is talking about.Posted on September 28th, 2008 by Paycheck in Canadian Politics
John McCain seems to be right about alot of things, Barack.
So, why do we need you?
Loved that "No" at the end, didn't you?

Liberating Potential – A New BeginningPosted on September 26th, 2008 by Paycheck in Abortion, Contraception
The Canadian Bishops have produced a fine document, marking the 40th Anniversary of Humanae Vitae. You can read the entire text here.
It is a sorely needed document to help re-establish the Church's teaching on contraception in Canada, which has, for the past 40 years, been shaped by the heretical Winnipeg Statement and whose 40th anniversary tomorrow (Sept.27) we also mark.
I couldn't help chuckle at this paragraph:
How sad that the bishops didn't recognize Humanae Vitae's "prophetic character" when they wrote the Winnipeg Statement 40 years ago. It would have saved our society much pain, suffering, and death now and well into the forseeable future. It was an epic disaster of epic proportions.
I very much doubt that we will ever see a formal retraction of the Winnipeg Statement now. But, at least, its "teaching authority" can hopefully be trapped in those 40 years from September 27, 1968 to September 26, 2008. Let's hope that no one ever opens that pandora's box again.
Ultimately, The Rosarium wanted the Canadian Church to reflect the teaching of Rome. This document now does that. For the 40 years previously, the Canadian Church's position on birth control did not reflect the teachings of Rome. Those responsible for creating and promoting and defending the Winnipeg Statement will have to give an account at the Judgement.
Although our end game was to get the Winnipeg Statement retracted, there would have been a void with a simple retraction. This Statement fills this void with a strong teaching document.
In some ways, it's a victory for us. Because they didn't even mention the Winnipeg Statement, it's almost as if they weren't even acknowledging it. In the past they've always tried to justify its "interpretation". There was none of that this time around.
Pastoral documents, by their very nature, are restricted to their time. They are not a doctrinal statement per se. Pastoral documents are binding until they are later 1) withdrawn or 2) superceded. We received #2. And I'll take that to the bank any day.
I'm not sure how much influence The Rosarium had in the end, but I'd like to think it was a modest influence. God bless Msgr. Vincent Foy's faithfulness these past 40 years for holding the line and being a thorn in the side of the bishops by his constant witness. He is a true priest of God, if there ever was one. Also to be thanked are the nearly 2000 people who signed our petition. Their prayers did not go unanswered.
Despite this wonderful document, however, The Rosarium will continue to call for the formal retraction of the Winnipeg Statement.
Testimony of an AbortionistPosted on September 26th, 2008 by Paycheck in Abortion
So today is Day 3 at "Ground Zero". Ground Zero is the phrase I'm using describe the Morgentaler Abortion Mill at 65 Bank Street (3rd floor) in Ottawa. Since the opening rally on Parliament Hill and procession to the abortuary, I haven't been able to get out. I've been swamped with about 25 emails per day, most of them for new registrations. The response from Ottawa has been very encouraging indeed. I'm going to get a chance over the next couple of days, though. Given some of the Ground Zero reports here and here, I'm eager to get up there.
Really eager.
Anyhow, yesterday my wife took a call from a grandmother. She has 14 grandchildren. She wanted to register for 14 hours - one for each of her grandchildren. We were really touched by that, as we have been with the extraordinary sacrifices of many people. And we're only just beginning!
When we think of abortion, many of us turn our hearts to the unborn children and their mothers. And rightly so. However, as difficult as it is, we must also remember the abortionists and those who work in the abortion industry. They are under a great spiritual blindness that only prayer and fasting or even great personal tragedy can overcome. Consider, for instance, this story which appeared on LifeSiteNews.com a couple of days ago:
And so, let us remember the abortionists. They have the potential, along with women who have had abortions, to be the deciding factor in this war, if they were ever to repent of their actions. Indeed our war is not against persons, but against spiritual forces which are demanding the destruction of innocent human life.
For those involved with abortion, I say, let there be no fear in turning away from abortion – no matter how many you've had or how many you've committed. God's unfathomable mercy covers even these heinous crimes and delivers everyone from the slavery of sin and the culture of death!
40 Days for Life Begins & The Trumpets SoundPosted on September 24th, 2008 by Paycheck in Pro-Life Activism
Last night on Parliament Hill, approximately 500 people attended the Kick-Off Rally to launch the 40 Days for Life Campaign. We join now with over 160 cities across North America (including Ottawa and Halifax in Canada) to bring about the end of abortion.
Frankly, I was shocked at the number of people who came out, considering the modest attempts at getting the word out. The crowd was rather lively, and although we were there to witness to the sanctity of human life and the tragedy of abortion, it was a festive atmosphere filled with great expectation and hope. Even the fair lady was there. Some of us could smell her roses.
The speeches touched on the need for sacrifice through prayer and fasting during the 40 days. That seemed to be a consistent theme throughout the evening. The speakers were challenging those assembled to take on this challenge seriously, and remarked that if we were serious about engaging the spiritual battle against abortion, then God would come to our assistance and secure the victory.
There was indeed a consensus from everyone there that something was changing in Canada. And that this evening of September 23, 2008 will have, in the light of history, something to do with it.
After the speeches, we made our way by candle light procession – 2 by 2 – from Parliament Hill down to the Morgentaler Abortion Mill at 65 Bank Street. It was an incredibly powerful and solemn event. When we arrived, we stood there as a group across the street from the abortuary. We held our candles. We prayed. We sang.
As I stood there looking at the cold, grey building where babies are being butchered and women's lives are being ruined, my mind turned to the biblical account of the Walls of Jericho. I looked around at the hundreds of people gathered around, and I thought to myself: the trumpeters have arrived.

is going to make it very uncomfortable for Obama and Biden.
Good luck, chaps, trying to — what did he say? — oh yes, put lipstick on a pig.
And this one too. My goodness, it doesn't look good for liberals. They need the nominal Catholic vote which comprises over 25% of the U.S. electorate. If these kind of newsreports become more commonplace, you can kiss abortion good bye forever.
HeartburnedPosted on September 22nd, 2008 by Paycheck in Canadian Politics
I haven't had much time to blog about the rather remarkable implosion of the Obamanites over Sarah Palin. I've offered a couple of entries here and here, among other more incidental postings. During the night of the convention, I, along with millions of North Americans, heard that gritty song from the 70s by Heart called Barracuda, following Palin's speech. The song was referring to Sarah Palin's nickname, "Barracuda", symbolizing her tenacious character.
Well, like all anthem songs which conservatives use for their political campaigns, they are invariably written and performed by social liberals. That usually means that when the song is picked to introduce a conservative candidate, the liberal peons are on the phone immediately to the Democratic campaign demanding that they contact the said artist(s) to let them know that the nasty Republican Party is using their song – without permission, of course.
Of course.
The last time I heard that happening was with Daryl Hall of Hall & Oats during the last presidential election. I don't recall the particulars, but the gist of it was the same thing. This stuff happens all the time.
But this weekend I got an education on how the "business" side of this whole thing works from my brother-in-law. Like many people, I naturally assumed that you needed to get the permission of the artist to play one of their songs in a public venue (as would have been the case with the Republican National Convention). So when I heard the next day that the Wilson sisters had contacted their lawyers about issuing a "cease and desist" order, I thought, well, here we go again. Still, it bothered me that the Republicans would be so stupid to open themselves up to a potentially large lawsuit. Little did I know that that such fear was rather misplaced.
It turns out that once you sign on the dotted line of a standard contractual agreement in the music business (with very few exceptions), it's all about making money. Politics is rarely, if ever, involved.
And that's the way it was in the case of Heart, Barracuda, and the Republican National Convention:
So, in other words, the RNC paid ASCAP. ASCAP, in turn, paid the Wilson's record label, and the record label paid the Wilson sisters. That means the RNC had every legal right to play the song because it paid the fee. The "cease and desist" order therefore was just a bone Heart threw to the liberalti to have with their kool-aid.
In some ways, everyone got what they wanted, as the band's former guitarist noted above.
The RNC got to use the song in a masterful marketing move.
Heart got the bucks and the publicity.
And the liberal peons felt good that Heart issued a phony cease and desist order — even if it was written to pretend to have some authority — moral or otherwise. The chicks haven't figured out that when you sell out, you don't call the shots anymore. Your "art" is basically public property — for a price, of course.
I must say that this story so typifies the relationship between the rich liberal hierarchy and their useful idiots on the ground.
Bama BustedPosted on September 21st, 2008 by Paycheck in Abortion, Canadian Politics
Obama has been busted on his pro-infanticide views for sometime now, but only recently has he figured out that it's not exactly an A1 seller for the majority of Americans. They're not quite with him on that right now. Not only does abortion have a hard sell in the U.S. election, infanticide is really a no-go area. Unlike Canada, it's still not a chic thing to do AT ALL in the U.S. where they still have some semblance of decency left.
Obama thought that he was taking the next progressive step in killing born children after botched abortions. He wanted to show his constituency that he supported more barbarian reproductive "rights" than Hillary Clinton did. But now it's going to be the noose that hangs his political career.
When you buy the pro-abort suit, you have to wear it the rest of your political career, Bama boy. It got you to the place where you are now. No sense in calling out a "despicable lie" when it's all true.
Just go with it and proudly and loudly tell Americans that it's all just part of your "Change" message.

40 Days For Life UpdatePosted on September 19th, 2008 by Paycheck in Pro-Life Activism
Greetings everyone,
Please note the following important events…..
1) KICK OFF RALLY – The 40 Days for Life Kick-off Rally will take place between 7 and 9 PM on Parliament Hill on next Tuesday September 23rd. There will be speeches, music and much more. It will end with a candlelight Procession from Parliament Hill to the Abortion facility where the 40-day-around-the-clock vigil will begin. This will be a truly awesome event!
Be sure to come out to hear Joe Zambon, a young Catholic musician who will be there on Parliament Hill to provide some musical entertainment.
Check out his website to listen to his awesome music, and be sure to support our young Christian artists: http://www.myspace.com/joezambon
2) BEING HUMAN: This Sunday night at 9:00 pm, EWTN TV will air a special documentary on 40 Days for Life campaign entitled "being HUMAN: 40 Days for Life II". It includes interviews with leaders such as Fr. Frank Pavone, former abortionists and others on how 40 Days for Life is renewing hope across North America. If you don't have a cable reception, you can view EWTN live on the Internet via this link:
BEING HUMAN (the original version) can be viewed here:
3) LATE NIGHT COUNSELL: Nicole Campbell, our Campaign Director, will be on Late Night Counsell with CFRA 580AM Radio host, John Counsell. She will be on the program next Wednesday September 24 from 10pm-midnight. Don't miss it and spread the word!
4) RELEASE THE POWER OF THE BLOG! Throughout the Campaign, I encourage you all to check the blog regularly to read about the experiences and accounts from vigil participants. I will be videotaping the Kick Off Rally and the Procession from Parliament Hill on Sept. 23. You can also keep up to date on the vigil schedule so you know when we need help in filling in the time slots. The side menu also has many other resources and important links like pro-life prayers, apologetic resources and much more!
5) VIGIL SCHEDULE: You hoo! Over here. That's right a little closer…little closer….Have I got your attention? Good. You need to sign up for a few more hours. And/Or you need to recruit more family and friends. Lots of slots to fill, not much time to do it. Pay particular attention to Sept. 24 and 25.
6) WEATHER: Please remember to dress appropriately for the weather. Bring an umbrella with you if the forecast calls for rain.
7) BATTLE BEGINS: The battle against abortion has always been a spiritual battle. Before anything happens in the political realm or even the educational realm, we must remove the spiritual blindness that covers the hearts of men and women. Abortion exists as the great anti-sacrifice of our time, the fruit of unrestrained indulgence. And so we need to counter that with prayer, fasting, and a very healthy dose of sacrifice. Sacrifice vs. Anti-Sacrifice. It's that simple. That's where the battle is at. Abortion will never be overcome without penance and sacrifice and that's what this campaign is all about. So, in the early hours in the morning, through the cold, the rain, through the occasional insult, sometimes alone, sometimes with others, always surrounded by the heavenly angelic host, we engage in the most important battle that has ever been waged in the history of mankind – the battle for life itself.
Perhaps it will take many years for some political movement to breakthrough, but we're making the eternal investment now to bring it about. Perhaps some of us won't taste the fruit of our sacrifices this side of heaven, but at the very least we'll all be able to say to those aborted children who didn't make it: we were there because we loved you; we were your witnesses, we offered the sacrifice that was denied to you. And for those who did make it because of God working through us, they and their posterity are our triumph and reward.
So we now fight the hell that awaits the unborn in Morgentaler's Mill. We pray, we fast, we make reparation, we counter the indulgence of the age. Sadly, many have let our pleas for support go in one ear and out the other. I pity them who have to give an account on the Last Day.
But for us, we answered the call so the time is here.
Ring the Church Bell.
And let's get it on.
Dumping the PillPosted on September 19th, 2008 by Paycheck in Contraception
This is the kind of heroic action that we need. Good for Koelzer. It's only through personal sacrifices – and a lot of them – that things can really start to change.

Hanoi, Sep. 19, 2008 (CWNews.com) – Eight months after promising to restore Church ownership of a building that once housed the office of the apostolic nuncio in Hanoi, Vietnamese authorities have suddenly begun demolishing the building, provoking the outrage of Catholic protestors and drawing a heated protest from the city's archbishop.
Very early on Friday morning, September 19, hundreds of police assembled in front of the archbishop's residence in Hanoi, blocking access to the residence, the cathedral, and all roads leading to the nearby nunciature. Dozens of bulldozers moved into the area and began digging out the lawn of the nunciature. At 6 am, after police and demolition workers were in place, state-controlled television and radio broadcasts announced that the government had decided to demolish the building, to convert the land into a public playground.
Priests at St. Joseph's cathedral rang the steeple bells, summoning local Catholics to the site to join in a public protest. But those who managed to find a way through police lines were arrested on the site.
An American reporter, Ben Stocking, the Hanoi bureau chief for Associated Press, was beaten by police when he tried to take photos of the confrontations at the nunciature. He was arrested and released, but his camera was confiscated. The US embassy lodged a formal protest of the incident.
In a strong letter of protest delivered to Vietnamese authorities, Archbishop Joseph Ngo Quang Kiet of Hanoi said that the sudden demolition of the building "smears the legitimate aspirations of the Hanoi Catholic community." He charged that the government's decision to renege on the earlier commitment to restore the building was an act "mocking society's conscience."
"This development is going against the policy of dialogue that the government and the archbishop's office are conducting," the archbishop pointed out. In February the government had agreed to restore Church control of the property, which had been seized by the Communist government 45 years ago.
The government made that concession after thousands of local Catholics engaged in daily prayer vigils at the site, pleading for the return of the building. As the demonstrators began to clash with police, the Vatican intervened to broker a diplomatic deal, in which the protests were ended in exchange for the government's promise that the building would be restored.
The government's reversal of that promise came as tensions between Catholics and local officials rose in Hanoi– both at the nunciature and at the Thai Ha parish, where a similar protest has been taking place involving the confiscated property of a Redemptorist monastery.
In a separate incident in the early-morning hours of September 19, a gang broke into the Thai Ha parish church and ransacked the sanctuary, spraying oil on statues.
Yesterday the Redemptorist priests at Thai Ha confirmed reports that they had been "invited" to speak with local officials about their property dispute. The officials showed the priests documents purporting to confirm a legal sale of the property in 1961. But the sales document was written in a computer format that did not exist at that time.
In the central Indian diocese of Jabalpur, where Catholics form only 0.3% of the population, two men set fire to the 150-year-old cathedral and caused irreparable damage to the altar. In Orissa, where the current wave of persecution began, reports are emerging of forced conversions of Christians to Hinduism.
In the Karnataka state, Christians enjoyed a mild reprieve as government officials said that they would not take action against the administrator of Christian schools who closed down the institutions on August 29 to protest the violence against their fellow Christians in Orisssa. Although the state government accused the Christian institutions of 'violating the norms,' Church officials pointed out the state law provides discretionary power to'private educational institutions to declare 5 holidays in a year.
Lies of the LeftPosted on September 18th, 2008 by Paycheck in Canadian Politics
Barack Obama…more than just an embellishment…..Ouch!!!
Meanwhile, remember that cheap shot Gibson took at Palin regarding the so-called "Bush doctrine" that she sought clarification on? Well, it turns out that Gibson was the real fool, at least according the inventor of the phrase….
Ecclesiastical ContraceptionPosted on September 17th, 2008 by Paycheck in Abortion, Catholicism
If you want to know why the scourge of abortion still exists in Canada, it is because of the false philosophies of proportionalism and consequentialism which the Cardinal appears to be espousing. In his encyclical, Veritatis Splendor, John Paul the Great condemned such philosophies as contrary to the Catholic faith.
Each conceived human being has an inalienable right to life that NO CIRCUMSTANCE, however tragic, can ever take away.
Given the state of the Church in this country, the Cardinal's disturbing comments above, and the reticence of the Canadian bishops to withdraw the Winnipeg Statement, we must honestly ask ourselves whether a large segment of the hierarchy has not already departed from the Church's teaching on many significant points of doctrine.
And contrary to what the Cardinal said above, the fetus does indeed scream.
We just don't hear it.

(Born on February 10, 1966) -- Every so often, Daryl Johnston has to come back to Western New York to be honored. Somehow, he probably doesn't mind the trip.
Johnston has been called the best athlete in the history of Lewiston-Porter High School. He was named Western New York's football player of the year in 1983.
From there it was on to Syracuse University. He moved into a starting role by the time he was a sophomore in 1986. Johnston was all-Big East in 1988 and All-American in 1989. That helped make him a second round draft choice of the Cowboys.
Johnston was a good fit with some great Dallas teams. He blocked for Emmitt Smith, was a good receiver out of the backfield, and a standout on special teams. Johnston retired after the 1999 season, and made a smooth transition into broadcasting.
Johnston now lives in Dallas. He had his uniform number retired at Lew-Port, and is a member of the Greater Buffalo Sports Hall of Fame.

I hope everyone had a nice time ringing in the New Year! Now, everyone will have to get used to writing 2013 on everything. It always seems like it takes a while to get use to doing that.
The recipe for this week is one that is quite different. My wife Denise, says a person she works with serves this to her family and they really enjoy it. It is called:
Spaghetti Pie
6 oz. of spaghetti
2 Tb. of butter
1/3 c. grated parmesan cheese
2 well beaten eggs
1 c. cottage cheese
1 lb. ground beef
½ c. chopped onion
¼ c. green pepper (optional)
1 c. tomatoes, cut up or you may use juice
1 six oz. can of tomato paste
1 tsp. sugar
1 tsp. oregano
½ c. mozzarella cheese
½ tsp. garlic salt
Cook spaghetti and drain. Stir in the butter to the hot spaghetti. Add the parmesan cheese and the eggs and mix together. Form the spaghetti mixture into a crust, in a buttered 10 inch pie pan. Spread the cottage cheese over the crust.
In a skillet, cook the ground beef with the onion and (optional green pepper) until the meat is browned.
Add the tomatoes, tomato paste, sugar, oregano and garlic salt to the meat. Heat thoroughly in the skillet. Pour the meat mixture into the spaghetti crust.
Bake uncovered in a preheated 350 degree oven for 20 minutes. Sprinkle mozzarella cheese on top. Bake five minutes more. This recipe will make six servings.
Did you know that in 2012 the all time favorite candy Life Savers, celebrated its 100th anniversary.
It all began back in 1912, when a chocolate candy maker named Clarence A. Crane invented the Pep-O-Mint flavor to create a candy that could withstand the summer heat, since in those days before air conditioning, chocolate would melt in the summertime, when it got hot. Since the candies were round, they resembled a life preserver, so that is how they got their name of Life Savers.
Mr. Crane registered his trademark for Life Savers and then sold the rights and the formula for the candy to Edward John Nobel for his round peppermint candy for $2,900 in 1913.
Mr. Crane had been selling his candy in cardboard rolls. After Mr. Nobel bought the company, he had the Life Savers wrapped in tin-foil packaging to keep the candy fresh.
That same year, Nobel founded the Mint Products Company in New York City to produce his Pep-O-mint round candies.
This process of wrapping the candy was all done by hand until 1919. At that time Edward Nobel's brother, Robert Peckham Nobel developed a process to streamline the process and he created a machine that would wrap the tin-foil around the candies, thus saving time to produce the product.
Also that same year, six new flavors were added to the candy. They included Wint-O-Green, Cl-O-ve, Lic-O-Riche, Cinn-O-Mon, Vi-O-let and Choc-O-Late. These flavors became their standard flavors and were in production until 1920. A flavor called Malt-O-Milk was introduced but was not received very well by the public so it was dropped form production after a few years.
In the early days Edward Nobel created marketing techniques that offered in store samples of the Life Savers candy. That way the customers could taste the hard candy for themselves. He also had displays set up by businesses cash registers at such places as restaurants, drug stores, saloons, cigar stores and barber shops. At first he had the owners give the customer an extra nickel back in their change, so they could purchase a pack of Life Savers before they left the establishment. This helped to increase the sales of the candy and helped to make the customers familiar with the product.
By 1921 the company bean to make solid fruit drops. Up until that time the hard candy was round but did not have a hole in the center. By 1925, they had the technology to make holes in the center of their fruit candies. At that time the candy was available in three flavors lime, lemon and orange. They were sold in rolls that contained all of one flavor.
The new flavors were a big hit with the public and they soon added butter rum, root beer, cola and anise but they were not as well received.
Also in 1925 aluminum foil replaced the tin-foil as the packaging on the rolled candies which continued to preserve their freshness.
In 1931, a Life Saver cough drop was added to their product line, with a menthol taste but it did not do well, so it was withdrawn.
Soon rolls of cherry and pineapple were also marketed in 1931. Since these two flavors were liked soon a Cryst-O-Mint flavor came out, with its crystal like appearance in 1932.
These were eventually followed by a five flavor roll of Life Savers that were introduced in 1935. They contained orange, pineapple, lemon, cherry and lime flavors.
By the late 1930s and early 1940s, four new mint flavors came out. They were Spear-O-Mint, Molas-O-Mint, Stick-O-Mint and Choc-O-Mint.
Sugar was rationed during world War II, so other candy manufacturers donated their ration of sugar so the Life Saver candies could continue production. That way, the military personnel who were fighting the war, could enjoy a taste of home, with 23 million boxes of them being distributed to the troops.
Robert P. Nobel became the major share holder in the Life Saver Company and was the company's Chief Executive Officer for more than 40 years. Finally by 1950, he sold the company and it went out of their family ownership.
After that, the company passed through many different owners. By 1956, Life Savers Limited, merged with Beech-Nut. Then the Beech-Nut, Life Savers company merged with the E.R. Squibb Corporation in 1968.
After the E.R. Squibb Corporation owned Life Savers, they sold them by 1981, to Nabisco Brands Incorporated. Nabisco introduced a new cinnamon flavor called Hot Cin-o-Mon and was a clear fruit drop style. This replaced the white Cinn-O-Min flavor which had been discontinued. They also discontinued some of the other older flavors once Nabisco acquired the company, to cut production costs.
After nearly 70 years of having the traditional five flavor packs of cherry, lime, orange, lemon and pineapple Life Saver rolls, three of the original flavors were dropped. The flavors they no longer produced were orange, lime and lemon. In their place, they introduced blackberry, watermelon and raspberry. After a time, blackberry was dropped and the orange flavor was added back into the roll of candy. However, the original five flavors of Life Savers can still be purchased in Canada.
Life Savers were produced in Holland, Mich. for quite some time before being moved to Montréal, Quebec, Canada to save money due to sugar prices. The company had its headquarters in Port Chester, N.Y. where Life Savers were made from 1920 until 1984. That old building was sold and made into apartments. By 1985, it was added to the National Register of Historic Places.
In 1987, the Canadian Life Savers company was bought by Hershey Canada. Then, by 1996 the Canadian Life Savers, which was owned by Hershey, was acquired by Beta Brands Limited.
By the year 2000, Kraft bought the American life Saver Company from Nabisco.
Then in 2000, they acquired the Canadian life Savers business from Beta Brands.
In 2004, the Life Savers business was acquired by the William Wrigley, Jr. Company of Chicago, Ill. which is known for making gum. After they bought the company they introduced the first two new mint flavors in 60 years in 2006. They were Sweet Mint and Orange Mint. They also brought back the Wint-O-Green flavor.
By April 28, 2008 Wrigley sold Life Savers to Mars Incorporated, the candy bar company. After that, the Wrigley Company operated as a subsidiary of Mars Incorporated, which is located in McLean, Va. and is a family owned business.
In 2012 the Life Saver candy celebrated its 100th anniversary. In April of last year, they announced they would donate money to 100 charities. Customers who purchased specially marked, 100th anniversary packs of Life Savers and entered the code on their web-site through the month of August, were part of their Connect for A Cause promotion.
For each of these codes that were entered, they would donate $1 to the 100 chosen charities that were also listed on the same web site. They hoped to donate up to $250,00 to these charities. This was their token of sharing for the 100 years that the famous candy was used in the same way.
Also, to help celebrate, a big party was held at the company's Chattanooga, Tenn. factory, where Life Saver mints are produced.
A lot of children awake on Christmas morning to find the old fashioned Life Savers Hard Candy Sweet Story Books, full of a variety of Life Saver rolls of candy, in their stocking. It is a tradition that has been going on for years and they are still available to this day.
There are an estimated one million places in the United States, where you can buy Life Savers candies. So, the next time you enjoy one of these delightful hard candies with the famous hole in the center, remember you are enjoying a treat that is more than 100 years old.
Just a reminder, bricks are still available to purchase for the Church Bell pedestal in Hero's Park, in Exline. If you are interested in purchasing one or more, you may call (641) 895-2691 for further information. If purchased now, the inscriptions will be placed on the bricks in the springtime.

CLAREMORE — No. 8 Rogers State couldn't hold onto a lead that grew to 21 points in the first half as Northwest Missouri State came back to claim a 71-68 victory over the Hillcats inside the Claremore Expo Saturday afternoon.
The Hillcats' Leah Smith was unable to connect on a corner 3-pointer with a Bearcat bearing down on her and one second remaining in the game, as Northwest gave RSU its second loss of the season.
In the opening stanza of play the Hillcats missed just six shots from the field but the second half saw the reverse as RSU made just six field goals.
The RSU held a 40-19 lead with under six minutes remaining in the first half. But Northwest closed out the first half on a 14-5 run trailing Hillcat coach Roxanne Long's squad 45-33 at the half.
RSU saw its halftime lead trimmed in half over the first seven minutes of the second half. Northwest took the lead for just the second time in the game with 5:59 to go up 63-62. From that point the lead changed hands five times before Monique Stevens layup put Northwest ahead 69-68 with 52 seconds remaining.
An offensive foul by the Hillcats gave the ball back to Northwest with 49 seconds remaining. The Bearcats were able to pull in the offensive board off a Stevens miss and Maggie Marnin laid it in with 16 seconds to go for what would be the go-ahead bucket giving Northwest the 71-68 victory.
Northwest Missouri State (5-2) won the battle of the boards 33-31 over RSU. The Bearcats, led by Meridee Scott with 17 points, committed just four turnovers in the second half after 12 in the first period. The Bearcats shot a lowly 41.2 percent from the charity stripe on 17 trips to the line.
RSU committed 20 turnovers with just eight assists as the Hillcats shot 45.8 percent for the game. The Hillcats shot 89.5 percent on free throws making 19 trips. Ariani Silva made her second start of the season and responded with a team high 17 points. Smith had 14 points for the Hillcats despite scoring just two points in the second half. Clarissa Cannon finished with 11 while Kelby Fritz added 10 for RSU. The loss moved the Hillcat women to 0-3 all-time versus NCAA Division II opponents.
Rogers State (7-2) will head north to Peru, Neb. to face Peru State on Monday for a 5:30 p.m. tip time.

I made this for BOTH Thanksgiving & Christmas. I ate ALL of it!! And you know what is sad? I HATE sweet potatoes...always have. This dish will be at EVERY holiday gathering now and some in between. On the 2nd batch I decided to try marshmellow cream instead of melting marshmellows...BIG MISTAKE! Take the time & melt them. The taste is so much better but either way I ate way more then I should have. This is a MUST TRY for ALL sweet potato haters. Awesome!
Well I did not think this was ever going to make it up on this website. I originally put it up before the 2000 holiday and I only found it because I lost my own recipe and figured to try and look on this website to see if they finally posted it! Im glad my aunt, who I know now is the creator of this pie(sorry aunt phyllis) wrote a review of this. I miss everyone a lot and I am in good health. I guess this should be called Aunt Phyllis' Sweet Potato Pie, I cannot wait to make it again!
Hey, godchild of mine!!! I hope this note finds you in good health,,,,,so,,,,,,,where do you think grandma originally got this recipe from??? DUH!!! Me!!! Couldn't believe my eyes when I saw the recipe ONLINE!!! Have a great thanksgiving... all of us here in f-dale say hello. I must say to all you gourmets out there, try this one and tattoo the recipe on your arm,,, you won't want to lose it!!! LUV, Aunt Phyllis XXOO

Hi folks, first let me say a big thank you to all for helping get these animals out of a shelter environment.
Now my question. I work with several rescues but mainly with large breed dogs - Saint Bernards typically. I was wondering if there is a size limit on the dogs you guys can help with. We occasionally have the need to move one from the South to the New England area we have typically relied on volunteers to construct a transport relay for these guys, but often that is so fragile and falls apart leaving the dog(s) in limbo.
Is Pilots N Paws even a possibility for dogs from 100 to 200 pounds in weight (not counting drool) ?

STEVE LEWIS/Durango Herald
STEVE LEWIS/Durango Herald
This year, some space at the Durango Arts Center will be used in a new way – theater.This will be the center's first designated theater season, and Theater Director Theresa Carson has been charged with finding a balance between education and performance.
The theater has always been the home of Durango Performing Arts Company and has hosted countless events in recent years, but the distinction is who is in charge. Instead of subletting the theater to the DPAC student actors or booking outside shows and concerts, Carson will oversee a full schedule of theater classes and produce six shows this year.
"It's a lot, but I think it's what this theater should be," Carson said.
Carson's season will kick off March 15 with a production of Lee Blessing's play "Independence," in which she also is a cast member. The show is a collaboration with Merely Players and is directed by Mona Wood-Patterson. Neil Simon will be featured in the summer season; his musical "They're Playing Our Song" will rotate with the three-act play "Plaza Suite."
Later this year, the center will produce the musical "Cabaret," a holiday staging of "It's a Wonderful Life: A Live Radio Play" and the center's own Third annual 10-Minute Play Festival.
In between stage productions, Carson and a small group of instructors will teach the next generation of thespians to ensure that future casting rolls are never wanting. The first classes will begin next week, when Durango native Alyse Neubert and Marcellina Chavira will introduce Durango to "Devised Theatre." The after-school program encourages students to serve as playwrights and actors, and to create their own material from their own experiences. Neubert learned the method from Kathryn Moeller at Fort Lewis College, and Chavira, a Texan by birth, comes to Durango via New York University.
"I call it a performance rather than a play," Neubert said. "We're going to pick and talk about an issue, hopefully local or social issues, something they're dealing with. The first couple of classes we'll determine what we want to discuss, then figure out how to present it. It's almost like documentary theater. There's always going to be musical theater, and Shakespeare isn't going anywhere, but it's just a different way to think about theater. It's important for kids to be exposed to that now, and where they can take it later in their lives is so cool to me."
Neubert's take is not just an opinion. Like music, many educators are recognizing the academic benefits of arts education, including theater. Nancy Heleno was one of the founders of Animas High School and Mountain Middle School, and her 10-year-old son, Pearce Fazekas, acted in the arts center's holiday production of "A Christmas Carol" this winter.
"As a researcher and writer on the neurology of intelligence and emotions, I know there are, among others, three important components to childhood development: imagination, advanced language skills and positive self-image," Heleno said. "We are lucky to have the Durango Arts Center serving the children of La Plata County with their upcoming dramatic opportunities. My son used and improved his problem-solving skills and literacy competency and was directed in a structured yet supportive environment."
For Pearce, it's a lot simpler.
"I love to act, learn about characters and different places in time, and to make an audience happy," he said.

I was thinling Alicia might be a family member to the female wrestler : WENDI RICHTER 2 different fighters, beauty & battle. M.Nolan
Meet the modern Playmate. She paints. She reads philosophy. She ponders the meaning of life, the meaning of sex, even the sociopolitics of appearing in Playboy - as the historic 500th Playmate. Of course Alicia Rickter also looks super in a bikini - or better still, dressed in that important Sartrean concept: nothing. She's no ordinary 23-year-old; then again, the ordinary doesn't really register on the Rickter Scale of Being. What matters to Alicia is testing life's limits -- shaking up the world a little, taking chances. These days that means transforming from jet-setting model to night-school student at Cal State, where tonight she's late for psych class. She flew home earlier in the day from a swimsuit-modeling gig in Cancún, then sped straight to school. That beep in her purse as she tries not to be noticed? Just her modeling agency paging its prize offering. Relaxing on the floor in her bedroom, Alicia listens to a Sting CD. Around her is a gallery of Rickterabilia: a century-old antique bed, texts on art and psychology, the dolls of a little girl, the cellular phone of a businesswoman. Sting sings a bit, then Alicia talks about being stung.

Geopolitics and Energy: The 'Great Game'
by Shaun Appleby, Sun May 31, 2009 at 08:49:04 PM EDT
Underlying the conflicts in Iraq and Afghanistan, and the confrontation with Iran and third-power interest in the insurgency in Pakistan, is a much broader shift in the tectonics of geopolitical influence among the great powers, China, Russia, the US and the emerging European state. And as usual it is founded on resources, trade and, consequently, the distribution of wealth and power among nations.
It is all about control of the world's dwindling energy resources and their chains of distribution and it is focused on the Middle East and Central Asia. The world's remaining abundant petroleum resources are localised in the Middle East and while the traditional maritime distribution model places the supply of these resources largely in the Persian Gulf, with the guarantor of delivery the US Navy, this model is slowly changing. As described by former Turkish Minister of State, Hikmet Uluğbay, we are now entering the final phase of this competition:
The discovery of oil, the popularization of the automotive industry and the introduction of motor vehicles to the army has led industrialized countries, which lacked oil to back the process of industrialization, including Britain, Germany and France, to enter a race for control over oil fields. Considering that its own oil resources may be exhausted, the US also joined the race after the end of World War I. This started the first battle of apportionment over oil resources. Currently, the final fight is taking place to have control over oil and natural gas resources, as well as over routes to deliver these resources. Scholarly studies show that global oil production will peak in the short run, after which oil production will enter a decline. According to the research, during the 2019-2030 period natural gas production will peak. The increase in oil prices to $150 per barrel was a harbinger of this. The current decline in oil prices should not mislead us. This temporary development is a product of expectations that the world economy will soon suffer from stagnation.
Fatih Uğur - World is Witnessing Final Fight For Oil Zaman 5 Oct 08
Partly due to the shift towards reliance on natural gas, pipeline distribution overland to Europe has become a highly competitive undertaking. Europe is already dependent on Russian natural gas travelling overland from the Caspian region, a situation not lost on US policymakers:
Unfortunately, Russia has shown itself increasingly willing to use energy as a tool of foreign policy, posing a threat to EU energy security. Meanwhile, the fourth largest proven natural gas reserves in the world sit in the Caspian region - including Azerbaijan, Kazakhstan, Turkmenistan, and Uzbekistan - effectively locked away from a natural market in western Europe by Russia's stranglehold over Europe's natural gas pipeline system.
Robert F Winchester - European Energy Security: Wrestling with the Russian Bear for Caspian Natural Gas US Army War College 30 June 2007
And Europe is seeking to establish it's own alternate routes to the Caspian Basin, the Middle East and Iran:
The aftermath of the January energy crisis between Russia and Ukraine, which resulted in the interruption of the natural gas supply to some European countries, has once again made relevant the establishment of alternative energy routes from Russia to supply natural gas to Europe. Additionally, alternatives are also needed to Ukraine, through which Russia transported about 80% of Europe's gas. In this case, the actual construction of the natural gas pipelines `North Stream` and `South Stream` again rise. Both projects will guarantee the unimpeded transit of natural gas through pipelines which will be laid on the seabed (of the Baltic Sea and the Black Sea). But these pipelines do not provide an alternative to Russian gas, and so a possible alternative for Central and Eastern European countries could be the Nabucco gas pipeline project, which plans to export gas from the Caspian Sea basin states and perhaps from Iran, Iraq and Egypt in the future.
Rovshan Ibrahimov - Nabucco Pipeline - I Turkish Weekly 19 Feb 09
Small wonder the US is having trouble getting European partners in it's effort to impose economic sanctions on Iran. But it is not just a reality affecting our inability to impose sanction on Iran, this competition for energy resources is global, strongly affecting US policy on Gulf and regional alliances, not to mention the invasion and occupation of Iraq and the security crises in Afghanistan and Pakistan, conflicts usually portrayed in terms of threats to our physical security and ideology. This reality informs the foreign policy of every major power, not to mention the geopolitical motivations of the US in the Middle East and South Asia, now and in the past, for both 'realists' and neoconservatives.

HONAKER, Va. —
It took six days and a super-storm to finally get it all in but it was worth the wait for the home team.
Honaker won the final two sets to hold off Honaker for a 3-1 win in the championship finals of the Black Diamond District volleyball tournament.
Twin Valley swept Grundy 3-0 in the consolation contest Saturday at A.P. Baldwin Gymnasium.
Meghan Hess and Laura Hess combined for 24 kills and Emily Kendrick added 10 as Honaker won, 25-21, 14-25, 25-10 and 25-21.
Meghan Hess had 13 kills, including several in the deciding fourth game. She also contributed a pair of blocks.
"They weren't blocking Meghan so we started feeding her in the middle," Honaker coach Amy Davidson said. "She's been strong all year and she's come so far."
Honaker's depth at the net offset a 22-kill, 6-block effort from Haysi's Erin Hyden. Angel Bryant added 11 kills for Haysi, while Kendrick added 11 service points and eight assists.
Sophomore Alexis Ramsey had 19 kills and three blocks to lead Twin Valley to a 27-25, 25-22, 25-18 win over Grundy for third place in the BDD.
"If Alexis gets good sets she can capitalize on them," Twin Valley coach Melisa Goodman said.
"We just didn't do a good job in several other areas."
Kaitlyn Rife, Dana Snead and Candace Fletcher combined for 16 kills, while Rife and Fletcher combined for 26 digs for Grundy. Fletcher added 14 service points while Krystal Cantrell contributed 18 assists for the Lady Wave.
Honaker, Haysi and Twin Valley will host first round matches while Grundy opens on the road in this coming week's Region D tournaments.
Pairings will be finalized today.

Holding up the mask ensures that no one will question why you are at the concert, only that you want to turn up the good and not be bothered doing it.

Gay Marriage - In the Courts, On the Ballot
Adam Thompson on October 17, 2008 - 10:00am
Last week, Connecticut's high court struck down the state's civil union law and ruled that same-sex couples have a constitutional right to marry. Connecticut joins Massachusetts and California as the only states that recognize gay marriage. As the New York Times reported, the Connecticut ruling is notable because it found for the first time that a state civil union law, while providing all the legal rights of marriage to gay couples but limiting marriage to heterosexual couples, violated the state's "constitutional guarantee of equal protection under the law."
Writing for the majority in the 4-3 decision, Justice Richard N. Palmer wrote:
Interpreting our state constitutional provisions in accordance with firmly established equal protection principles leads inevitably to the conclusion that gay persons are entitled to marry the otherwise qualified same-sex partner of their choice. To decide otherwise would require us to apply one set of constitutional principles to gay persons and another to all others.
Speaking directly to whether civil unions provide the same constitutional right to "equal protection under the law" as marriage, Justice Palmer wrote:
Although marriage and civil unions do embody the same legal rights under our law, they are by no means equal. The former is an institution of transcendent historical, cultural and social significance, whereas the latter is not.
Opponents of gay marriage are working to make the constitution a discriminatory tool by enacting a constitutional ban on gay marriage. They hope to use a procedurally complicated state constitutional convention to enact a ban, but first need voters to call the convention. However, a new poll shows that Connecticut residents support the court's decision by a margin of 53-42 and even the state's Republican Governor, Jodi Rell, who opposes same-sex marriage, does not support a constitutional ban.
Gay Marriage on the Ballot: The marriage rights of gays and lesbians in California, however, are much more tenuous. After the California Supreme Court legalized same-sex marriage earlier this year, opponents mobilized the ever-potent "forces of bigotry and bias" to place a constitutional ban on gay marriage before voters next month. A recent poll shows support for the ban, on the ballot as Proposition 8, 47% to 42%, with 10% undecided. Currently, opponents to gay marriage are outspending its supporters "2 or 3 to 1" and are, predictably, using baseless fear to mobilize support for the ban.
Similarly, voters in Florida will vote next month on a question whether to amend the constitution by defining "marriage as between a man and a woman." Michael Schiavo, who battled with conservative Christians over his wife Terri's feeding and hydration tubes, is actively campaigning against the initiative. And, after rejecting a gay-marriage ban in 2006, Arizona voters will decide whether to amend the constitution by defining marriage as a union between one man and one woman, even though, as the Ballot Initiative Strategy Center points out, state law already denies marriage to same-sex couples.

Chaz Dean Studio is a labor of love for renowned stylist Chaz Dean, whose clientele includes Jamie-Lynn Discala, Julianna Margulies, Keri Lynn Pratt, Neve Campbell and Allison Janney. Chaz, who is known for his impeccable skills and incomparable vision and taste, started out his career as a photographer and then moved into hair and makeup to bring true vision to his talent.
Chaz's philosophy of respecting the health of the hair has won him many loyal fans. Chaz is known for taking in "bleach victims" and other clients whose hair has been damaged by over processing. He expertly restores their hair to an incredibly healthy and gorgeous state beyond their expectations. Chaz Dean Studio uses no bleach, but instead lightens hair by using high lift tints that provide the desired shade of blonde and still maintain the hair's integrity, strength and shine. Chaz has also omitted the use of shampoo. Shampoo contains harsh chemicals and detergents, such as sodium laurel sulfate, that dry hair and strip it of its color. In its place Chaz developed WEN, a revolutionary product that cleanses hair thoroughly without detergents and uses only natural astringents that leave hair softer and healthier than ever before. WEN has an extensive celebrity following. Stars like Eva Longoria, Halle Berry, Christina Applegate, Julia Roberts, Cameron Diaz and Drew Barrymore enjoy WEN's revolutionary benefits.
In 2001, after three years of continued success with Chaz Dean Studio, Chaz opened Chaz Dean Lifestyle, a unique store offering one-of-a-kind gift items and home furnishings. The Lifestyle Bungalow, which is located next door to the salon, has continually changing merchandise from all over the world, all hand picked by the stylish Chaz.
The result of Chaz's innovative vision is a peaceful sanctuary where mind, body, and spirit are fused into one. It is a true pleasure to experience the transformative and healing power of Chaz Dean Studio and Chaz Dean Lifestyle. Chaz incorporates beauty and health in a way that is truly miraculous and hasn't been attempted before.

In light of the current discussion concerning legal standards of non-paid, paid and credit-bearing internships, the Marist College Center for Career Services is implementing a new practice to assist with record keeping and tracking of student and employer information. Effective with the start of the FALL 2013 semester ALL Marist College students who participate in elective credit internships will be required to submit their Internship Learning Contracts to the Center for Career Services PRIOR to registering for academic credit for an internship.
The purpose of this new practice is to ensure that there is a learning contract on file for every student who is registered for an elective credit internship. This contract is critical as we seek to verify that elective Internships are in compliance with the Fair Labor Standards Act. Having signed learning contracts on file will also allow us to have documentation of the internship learning goals and objectives that have been agreed upon between the student intern and the employer.
Please note, that Career Services will not forward documentation to the Registrar for assignment of academic credit until the signed Learning Contract is presented.

But it's not Aniston who has milked the trio to death. It's Pitt and Jolie who ALWAYS have to bring it back so that they can sell more and more and more of their brand.
Anytime one of these two has a movie to promote, they either talk about it, talk about a "future" wedding etc.
I don't really care about Aniston but at least, she has behaved with a lot of class against two person who really did play it like they've done nothing wrong. The only time she spoke about it I believe she said They lacked a sensitivity chip.
Saint Mother Térésa is the image Angie has been trying to build since she decided she wanted to be a "mother". And her PR people really have done more than well considering most people have forgotten her antics like kissing her brother saying he's the love of her life, the blood vials she shared with husband number 2 I think, and so on.
She was the one feeding the rumors about Aniston not wanting kids, etc etc. While she knew she was recovering from two aborted pregnancies ... But Pitt did nothing to stop that so he's in the same sack imo.
poths Void: MarieM carries a rusty old blade in her handbag!
The miscarriages story seems to have come from a book about Brad and Angelina: http://www.nowmagazine.co.uk/celebri...tt-s-babies/1/
(I also like mlp's name for her, Ms. Snooty McNepotism).
You should never write words with numbers. Unless you're seven. Or your name is Prince. - "Weird Al" Yankovic, "Word Crimes"
Do you think Nancy or Oksana deserved the gold medal?
Do you think Michelle Kwan should have an OGM? Or not?
Should Evgeny have beaten Evan?
(This is the dead horse-beating thread, right?)
It's official. I am madly in love with Meryl Davis.
"The secret to creativity is knowing how to hide your sources."-- Albert Einstein.
I vowed to not read or engage in any conversation about the threesome that just won't die (and I haven't until now). I usually far, far away but was surprised to see how many pages the latest entry about the threesome has already gotten.
So against my better judgement...
I agree with MarieM and I will say that it underlines (IMO) just how good Brangelina's PR team is. I wish I had bet some $$ because as soon as the interview with Pitt was released, I commented that "I bet Aniston gets blamed for this as well." I was right.
None of the three are anywhere near perfect yet the press and many fans have put them in exteme corners.
Eville, bitter, pitiful Aniston who can't move on even though she doesn't really speak much about her marriage and this time around hasn't even commented (as far as I know). Well, except for the comments attributed to her by the tabloids which most will automatically believe is true because she's that kind of person. Most of the articles that bring up the subject reuse variations of quotes from the original articles written during the divorce and the year or two after.
Then you have saintly Jolie and dufus Pitt who can do no wrong even though they have indeed commented on the breakup and their relationship, children, future plans, romance etc. etc. more than Aniston. Both have made "innocent" little comments that do seem like digs at Aniston. Among other comments, both gave at separate times gave interviews about wanting their children to see "Mr. & Mrs. Smith" because they wanted the kiddies to see where their parents fell in love.
The really funny thing is that the same people who take the tabloids at their word each time something negative is written about Aniston brush off anything negative written about the other two admonishing folks who shouldn't believe anything written in a tabloid.
I wish the press would find something else to write about. It's long past time to let it go.
I find it ironic and appropriate that in "Contagion" it was her character that introduced a killer disease into the public. Her death scene was hilarious (and I don't think that was on purpose).
I don't know any of these people. But years ago when Brad/Jen were together I lived in Brad Pitt's hometown. I have heard that Brad (was very sweet with his grandmother)
But I knew someone who worked in like a church nursery with Brad Pitt's little niece. And one thing that can be said is the little girl was going on and on about how she couldn't wait for Christmas because she had talked on the phone with her Aunt Jen, and Aunt Jen had promised they would make Christmas Cookies together...
I don't know Angelina, or Brad. But Jen at the very least was an adored aunt. (I'm sure I've posted this before )

"Priscilla Queen of the Desert," through Sunday in Shea's performing Arts Center. ★★★½
From the review: "As for 'Priscilla,' this stage adaptation is successful in replicating the patent absurdity, unlikely emotional weight and foot-long eyelashes of the film in all its consciously preachy glory." --Colin Dabkowski
Beth Donohue and Wendy Hall in the Irish Classical Theatre Company's production of "Dancing at Lughnasa."
"Dancing at Lughnasa," through March 10 in the Irish Classical Theatre Company's Andrews Theatre. ★★★
From the review: "...You enter and exit the picture fluidly, never sure of whose emotions you're responding to. In the end, you feel awoken from a dream, in the hazy déjà vu of it all. How exquisite this can be." --Ben Siegel
Anne Gayley, Victoria Perez and Mary Kate O'Connell star in the O'Connell and Company production of "Glorious!"
"Glorious!" through March 3 in O'Connell and Company's Gleasner Hall, Erie Community College Williamsville Campus. ★★★
From the review: "Call it what you will – bravura, tour de force – O'Connell is marvelous as Florence, gentle, innocent, trusting, so serious yet so ridiculous..." --Ted Hadley
Tim Newell stars in the Jewish Repertory Theatre's production of "Mister Benny."
"Mister Benny," through March 3 in the Jewish Repertory Theatre's Maxine and Robert Seller Theatre. ★★★½
From the review: "In 'Mister Benny,' a one-man play by Mark Humphrey about the beloved comedian Jack Benny, Tim Newell slips a white handkerchief into the breast pocket of his suit jacket, puts on a pair of chunky black glasses, and disappears.In his place, the fumbling, charming, self-aware Benny – a comedian whose vaudevillian persona belongs to a distant and more innocent age – comes so vividly to life that even those with little to no experience of his work experience a pang of nostalgia for someone they barely recognize." --Colin Dabkowski
Michele Marie Roberts, Jessica Ferraday, Guy Balotine and Josie DiVincenzo star in "Noises Off" in the Kavinoky Theatre.
"Noises Off," through March 10 in Kavinoky Theatre. ★★★★
From the review: "The Kavinoky's current production of Michael Frayn's classic modern farce "Noises Off" is perhaps not absent of flaws. That would be absurd. I dare you to find anything wrong with it, though, or to not take pure joy in everything it offers." --Ben Siegel
The cast of "F------ Men" at Buffalo United Artists.
"F------ Men," through Feb. 23 in Buffalo United Artists Theatre. ★★★
From the review: "For all its playful and shameless titillation, the play is a clever if not exactly boundary-breaking consideration of the ways in which gay men from a cross-section of American society connect to one another." --Colin Dabkowski

Q:I created a sample banner and want to make a change. I did not order it yet...want to send it to thee boss. I can't find it!Asked on 7/7/2012 by Mickie the gamer from Las Vegas, NV

A:Your banner cannot be "saved". Once you approve the banner and submit the order into your shopping cart no changes can be made. You would need to start over on the banner in order to "show the boss".Answered on 7/10/2012 by csr

Jaguars RB Maurice Jones-Drew will miss at least this week's game against the Packers, and maybe more.
Head coach Mike Mularkey said Jones-Drew injured his foot on the first play of Sunday's loss to the Raiders. He didn't know specifics, just that Jones-Drew had an injury in the middle of his foot.
In six games this season, Jones-Drew has 86 carries for 414 yards and one touchdown and 14 catches for 86 yards and a score. Rashard Jennings replaced MJD and will likely start in Week Eight. Third-string RB Montell Owens got hurt as well, and Mularkey did not rule out adding a running back this week.
QB Blaine Gabbert, who left Sunday's game with a shoulder injury, has a "good chance" to play on Sunday after injuring his non-throwing shoulder. If Gabbert cannot go, Chad Henne would start.
