The Coronation Choir consisted of some 430 men and boys, divided into Decani and Cantoris and placed on specially erected galleries in the north and south choir aisles. Since some of the singers could not see the conductor (Sir Frederick Bridge), sub-conductors were placed at strategic points to 'relay' the beat. With such a disposition of the singers, the double-choir writing which Parry used for 'Jerusalem is builded …' must have been particularly effective.

Marybeth Heikes' collages, "Road Trip #1" and "Road Trip #2" were accepted in the annual Midwest National Abstract Art Exhibition IX. This show will be held at The Garfield Park Arts Center in Indianapolis.
The show, sponsored by the Southside Art League, opens Sept. 28 and continues through Oct. 26 and is a yearly event open to all artists in the U.S. All media is welcome, but has to be original and completed within the last three years. It is free and open to the public.
Heikes, of Centerville, initiated this technique in 1995, beginning with hand-painting her paper with acrylics and using a loose, contour pencil design as a starting point. She has completed compositions in most every subject matter, which includes commissioned artwork. More of her artwork can be seen by visiting her studio by appointment or her website: www.mheikes.com. Prints and notecards are also available both online and in her studio.

The more interesting/active it is, the more interesting it is for me to read. I'd actually prefer to read than post, being entirely honest, and looking at how high my post count is, that says a lot about what there is to read. Again, I'm not being critical of any particular individual at this point, just a distinct lack of content.
Also, I ironically think it if was made more exclusive to join, people, being naturally curious, will wonder what we have that the other Keira sites don't. From a marketting perspective I expect we'll end up with more members not less. Sounds odd, but there is a logic to it.
But hey, as Mandy said, I actually win either way. I enjoy making fun of the newbies, so even though you've said no, I'm a happy man. I just honestly think this idea has a lot more potential than is being explored. I'm glad that at least Baz has said it's "interesting" and worthy of being discussed further because I think there's merit to it. But meh, what do I know?

People in Philadelphia's Roxborough neighborhood are fed up after a rash of car break-ins. So they're banding together, and getting creative, to fight crime before it happens.
"I felt a little violated because there was no sign of entry and I know the car was locked."
Melanie Wescott's car was targeted in a recent rash of Roxborough break-ins just last week.
The thief may have stolen $300 worth of clothes from her car, but not her sense of humor.
"We all had big vigilante ideas of setting up a sting operation," says Westcott.
Wescott didn't become a capped crusader, but she took to her computer on a crusade, sending an e-mail out to alert her neighbors to the crime spree on the 500 block of Seville.
Now she and other victims like Marianna Dolan are teaming up.
They urge neighbors not to leave change and other valuables in plain view. They're also part of a growing group of residents on the street who've also vowed to leave their porch lights on.
"Everyone keeping in touch, leaving porch lights on, emailing. Kind of looking out for each other," says Marianna Dolan.
Ryan Gibbons is also taking extra precautions so he doesn't become a victim. He's trying to get neighbors to follow his lead.
The Seville Street resident leaves his empty center console and glove box wide open.
"If anyone is walking by, they'll look in and see nothing for them to steal," Ryan Gibbons.
"We welcome that. We welcome anything the community is going to do to make it harder for local thieves to make them victims," says Captain John Cerron of the Philadelphia Police.
"Were keeping the cars completely empty and locked and hopefully they'll find there's less to take and [less] reason to come here," says Westcott.

US wants Bank of America to pay $864M over loansThe Associated Press | November 10,2013NEW YORK Federal prosecutors want Bank of America Corp. to pay about $864 million for losses incurred by the government after it bought thousands of home loans made by Countrywide Financial during the housing boom.
New York U.S. Attorney Preet Bharara made the request in documents filed late Friday with the U.S. District Court in Manhattan.
A jury last month found Bank of America, which acquired Countrywide in 2008, liable for knowingly selling thousands of bad home loans to Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac between August 2007 and May 2008.
The panel also returned the verdict against Countrywide and a former executive, Rebecca Mairone.
The trial related to mortgages the government said were sold at break-neck speed without regard to quality as the economy headed into a tailspin.
The government had accused the financial institutions of urging workers to churn out loans, accept fudged applications and hide ballooning defaults through a loan program called the Hustle, shorthand for high-speed swim lane, which operated under the motto, Loans Move Forward, Never Backward.
Bank of America, based in Charlotte, N.C., denied there was fraud.
Thousands of loans made through the Hustle program were sold to Fannie and Freddie, which packaged loans into securities and sold them to investors. The companies were effectively nationalized in 2008 when they nearly collapsed from mortgage losses.
In the filing Friday, Bharara asked the court to make the penalty on Bank of America equal to the maximum losses racked up from the Hustle program by the government-run mortgage buyers.
Bank of America spokesman Lawrence Grayson said Saturday that the lender plans to respond to the governments penalty filing before a Nov. 20 deadline.
We believe the filing overstates the volume of loans and the appropriate measure of damages arising from one narrow Countrywide program that lasted several months and ended before Bank of America acquired the company, he said.
Bharara also wants the court to impose a penalty on Mairone who prosecutors say was the driving force behind the Hustle program that is in line with her ability to pay.
Mairones lawyer, Marc Mukasey in New York, said Saturday that he intends to file papers with the court arguing there should be no penalties imposed on his client.
Countrywide, once the countrys largest mortgage lender, played a major role in the collapse of the housing market because of its heavy reliance on subprime mortgages. Facing serious financial challenges, it was acquired by Bank of America in 2008 in an all-stock deal valued at about $4 billion.
In 2010, Bank of America agreed to pay $600 million to settle class-action lawsuits claiming that Countrywide officials concealed mounting financial risks as they loosened lending standards during the housing boom.
That same year, former Countrywide CEO Angelo Mozilo agreed to pay $67.5 million to settle accusations by the Securities and Exchange Commission that he had misled investors and engaged in insider trading.MORE IN National / World BusinessWASHINGTON The government is underestimating the threat of a chemical attack on Americas...

Cumberland Times-News
Might there be a better way of understanding students' difficulties in learning? Some ideas that have been widely explored include learning styles, multiple intelligences and bloom's taxonomy.
In my opinion, these outlooks have not been successful in devising widespread strategies to make our students better learners. Now there is much talk about large scale use of external internet courses to revolutionize college learning (and to put most colleges out of business).
Many advocates of these proposals have not recently taught classes at the collegiate or secondary levels. Most of these proponents have an idealized notion of students, as they are today. They go through these courses and delight in the exercises; they assume that today's students will have the same experience.
Here is my take on learning, perhaps a simpler approach but one that today's teachers might find interesting.
There are three levels of learners: shallow, middle and deep. Of course, these levels are part of a continuum where many students might fall between these categories. I also think that the levels will change for individual students depending on the subject matter.
Shallow learners rely heavily on memorization and tend to be very literal. It is much easier for them to memorize principles, laws and mathematical relations than actually understand them and be able to provide examples from their own experience.
For shallow learners to answer questions in their own words is a real challenge. They would rather look in the text or in their notes. By quoting this material word for word in their answers, they conceal their lack of understanding and feel safe.
Shallow learners look for reasons to skip classes. Their kind of learning is superficial and disappears a few weeks after the course is over. When the shallow learners begin a course that is built on the foundation of an earlier course, they don't recall the key ideas that they had struggled with in the previous course.
Middle learners benefit from work outside of class, such as homework and projects. They can see the connection between different treatments of the same material (such as the textbook, notes and class discussion).
Middle learners' understanding is based on what the instructor does in class, their own reading and reflection afterwards. After going through examples in class or in the textbook, they can apply the key principles of a course.
Middle learners can appreciate the difference between teaching that encourages interaction and teaching that focuses on memorization. Middle learners enjoy experiences outside of class, such as conversing with the instructor and taking field trips.
Deep learners are rare in most classes. They see the benefit of classes but prefer to learn beyond what is expected by reading and working through other materials. Deep learners know that what they get out of a course depends more on their own efforts, rather than what the instructor can deliver.
To a deep learner, it's not the grade but what they can achieve on their own. Deep learners are not that concerned about what other students think of them. They often ask unusual questions in class that the instructor finds difficult to answer during class (without losing the attention of most students).
My next column will follow up on these levels of learning and what could be done to move the shallow learners towards middle learning. I invite any readers, teachers or students to comment or critique my ideas through email firstname.lastname@example.com.
SKY SIGHTS AHEAD: On Sept. 25, the moon swung from the morning to the evening side of the sun. (Each day, the moon moves about 13 degrees eastward among the stars while the sun creeps about 1 degree eastward.)
Tomorrow the crescent moon and brilliant Venus (to left of the moon) will be easily seen in the 7:30 p. m. dusk low in the west.
On Oct. 11, the moon will appear half full (like a tilted letter D) in the southwestern evening sky. Binoculars held steadily will reveal some of the moon's larger craters along the moon's straight edge (where the sun there is rising).

Pick a game that belongs in your GOGmix from the list, or find it by typing something in the text field. Relevance is key here - Earthworm Jim doesn't quite fit the "Sexiest heroines of all time" bill now, does it?

Word of mouth, though, can go a long way and move a CD up the stacks, from "Later" to "Listen Now!" Recently a band come to our attention through a mutual friend from all the way over in Iceland, who asked us if we had ever heard of The Barr Brothers. We hadn't... and if we had, well, there are a lot of "brothers" bands! But it was enough to get us to the Tractor, where the band was opening up for Deer Tick, and based on that mesmerizing performance -- full of rootsy instrumentation, ethereal melodies balanced with gritty boot-stompers -- we booked them on the spot for an in-studio the next morning.

The Herald Bulletin
---- — ANDERSON — The defense that dominated the Jacksonville Jaguars on Sunday featured a strong safety making just his second NFL start and appearing in just his third regular-season game.
Two defensive starters missed that 37-3 victory as well as the stunning 27-7 upset against the San Francisco 49ers a week early.
The offensive line that manhandled the Niners' front seven was missing two starters, and three players in the middle (both guards and the center) were making their first appearances of the season at their respective positions.
Tight end Dwayne Allen has been out since early in the first quarter of Week 1, and he's just one of eight players already on the season-ending injured reserve list.
Yet, the Indianapolis Colts just finished the first quarter of the season at 3-1 and stand tied with the Tennessee Titans atop the AFC South.
Next man up, indeed.
"Everybody's accountable, and everybody's held to a certain level of expectation," head coach Chuck Pagano said during his afternoon news conference Monday. "You're one play away. We've seen it week in and week out since I've been here, it happens and so guys are going to get called upon. It was like we talked about last week, no worse feeling than walking into an exam that you haven't studied for.
"I asked the guys last week, 'Everybody raise your hand if you ever walked into a test that you didn't study for.' I, myself, I was the first one to raise my hand, and everybody else rose their hand. It's not a good feeling. That's why we ask these guys, every one of them, to prepare as starters. Because, again, you're one play away from having to go in and compete and perform at a level which gives us an opportunity to win."
No one embodies that philosophy more completely than safety Delano Howell. The Stanford product spent much of last season on the practice squad with the Buffalo Bills before being claimed late in the year by the Colts. He made just one regular season appearance and needed a strong preseason just to make the 53-man roster this summer.
Howell was inactive for the first two weeks, then got a surprise start against San Francisco when LaRon Landry wasn't able to play because of an ankle injury.
In the past two weeks, he's made six tackles and deflected two passes playing in tandem with veteran free safety Antoine Bethea.
"I just credit a guy like Delano, that since he's been here he's done everything we've asked him to do from a physical standpoint, from a mental standpoint," Pagano said. "He takes his job very serious, and he prepares. So it's no surprise to any of us that he's able to go out and play pretty good. If you put the time in and you study your opponent, you practice hard, chances are you're going to play well on Sunday."
Howell is far from alone.
Inside linebacker Kelvin Sheppard filled in for Pat Angerer against the Niners, and defensive end Fili Moala — a former starter — ably replaced Ricky Jean Francois in Jacksonville.
On the offensive line, rookie Hugh Thornton — who spent much of the preseason learning to play right guard — has stepped in at left guard for Donald Thomas, who is out for the year with a quad injury. Mike McGlynn has moved over from right guard to center in place of Samson Satele the past two weeks, and utilityman Jeff Linkenbach has made two straight starts at right guard.
When running back Vick Ballard was lost for the season to a knee injury, general manager Ryan Grigson acted quickly in trading for 2012 No. 3 overall draft pick Trent Richardson. But holdovers Ahmad Bradshaw and Donald Brown have shone brightest in the past two outings.
Then there's second-year tight end Coby Fleener. A rough preseason that included a couple of dropped passes, a fumble and an injury raised concerns. But the 2012 second-round pick has responded in Allen's absence.
Fleener had five catches for 77 yards and a touchdown against Jacksonville and has 12 catches for 166 yards and two scores on the season.
"Anytime a guy like Dwayne goes down, who makes such a big impact for the offense, other guys are going to have to fill in here and there," Fleener said. "So, yeah, I would say my role has expanded a little bit."
The Colts' challenges are far from over.
Pagano announced Monday rookie outside linebacker Bjoern Werner will miss four-to-six weeks with a torn plantar fascia. That means Cam Johnson — a second-year player with six regular-season games under his belt who was acquired in a trade with the 49ers in August — will become the next man up.
Johnson will be asked to spell outside linebackers Robert Mathis and Erik Walden during Sunday's game against 4-0 Seattle. But it won't change anything about the way the Colts prepare.
"Certainly, it's never going to be perfect," Pagano said of the team's play thus far. "We're chasing perfection. I like where we're at. I like where this team is mentally, physically. We've lost some guys, but guys prepare around here as starters. So we've had guys that have been able to step in and fill the shoes of the guys that we lost and perform at the level that we need them to perform at. So I feel good where we're at."

Traverse City Record-Eagle
---- — TRAVERSE CITY — Brian "Bear" Reicha hasn't harbored bad feelings after a collision with a plow truck this winter that left him seriously injured.
Reicha, a veteran driver with Ward Eaton Towing, crested a hill on Peninsula Township's Center Road on a snowy January day and saw a plow truck backing up in front of him. He didn't have enough time to stop, so he swerved into a ditch and side-swiped the plow near the McKinley Road intersection.
He wound up with a fractured neck, a severely broken leg and a ticket for driving too fast for conditions. He recently returned home from the hospital.
"He hasn't had anything negative to say about the whole thing. He said he's just glad he was the only one who got hurt," his brother, Greg Reicha, said.
That crash was one of five this year involving a Grand Traverse County Road Commission vehicle that resulted in injuries, including two deaths. Records show injury crashes increased this year from one incident in 2012. Prior to that, the last occurred in 2008.
The road commission driver was not at fault in each case, records indicate.
In February, a driver failed to yield at a stop sign at the Sparling and Summit City Road intersection in Kingsley and crashed into a Grand Traverse County plow truck. The driver, David Pipoly, and his daughter, Christa, died.
Tragedy wasn't unique to Grand Traverse County this winter. The weekend of the Kingsley crash, a Petoskey woman died after the vehicle she was riding in failed to stop at a stop sign and collided with a Charlevoix County plow truck.
Grand Traverse County Road Commission manager Jim Cook said serious crashes are "a pretty horrible experience" for county drivers, regardless of who's to blame for crashes. Counselors were made available for road commission staff following the Kingsley fatalities.
"That's something you never, ever want to have to be involved in, even if it wasn't your fault. I'm sure that's a horrible memory that isn't going to go away," Cook said.
There have been no road commission vehicle crashes resulting in injuries over the past five years in Benzie, Kalkaska, Leelanau and Antrim counties, according to information provided by the respective commissions.
Leelanau County drivers were involved in three fender benders, but there hasn't been an injury crash since the 1970s or '80s, said manager Herb Cradduck. He considers his workforce fortunate.
"As many miles as we're out there in the winter time, you got that many trucks, you're bound to get in an accident," Cradduck said.
Weather conditions could be partly to blame for Grand Traverse County's increase in collisions, Cook said.
"It's been more of a typical winter than we've had in the last three years. Most of those accidents occurred either in the early morning or at night," he said.
Family said Reicha is walking short distances again and looks forward to returning to work, though doctors haven't said when that will be. Friends have organized a benefit auction and dinner at the Masonic Lodge in Acme on April 13. Contact Tracey Stites at firstname.lastname@example.com for more information.

"Luciano Pavarotti died in September 2007, just short of his 72nd birthday and only a few years after his last performance at the Metropolitan Opera, in Tosca.
The Metropolitan has recently re-released on DVD the 1978 telecast of Pavarotti's first Cavaradossi at the Metropolitan. The greater testimony to the ongoing fame of this tenor is a separate Decca release, in tandem with the Metropolitan Opera, called "Bravo Pavarotti." …"

Huntington Patch asked the Huntington Highway Department about how things were going with the town's snow removal efforts and in particular, the noticeable absence of plows.
Here is the response from superintendent William Naughton.
"We have just experienced the worst possible scenario with regard to a winter storm. On Friday it started off raining and quickly changed over to a record 29 inch snowfall. Because of the rain all roads ended up with a thick layer of ice under the snow.
Our primary method of snow removal has always been using local contractors in small 6 wheel dump trucks or pickup trucks. These trucks have had a very hard time plowing the snow because it is heavy and there is a layer of ice under it. The trucks lose traction and are getting stuck. Because of their frustration with getting stuck and damage to equipment many of them have left service.
Due to the ice our own equipment has become stuck and some of it has been damaged. Yesterday (Saturday) we reached out to Supervisor Petrone and State and County Emergency Management officials to request heavy equipment like payloaders, 10 wheel dump trucks, backhoes etc. Some of these requests are starting to be filled. We would like to thank these agencies for helping us out in this trying time.
We are operating today with 100 less contractor pieces of equipment than we had yesterday but please be assured that we will not stop until every road is open to traffic.
We appreciate your patience!"
Note: Michael Naughton e-mailed this for his father.

The Norman Transcript
NORMAN — As a girl, Debbie Copp thought she would be an educator, like her parents. But it was a part-time job as an OU student that diverted her talents and interests to sports communication, and she has never looked back at her classroom plans.
For the past 35 years, she has been at home as a part of the OU sports information team, having the title of director of publications and awards since 1990. She is the driving force behind the football and basketball game programs.
"I do most of the planning and production," she said, adding that there are 40 pages of each 124-page football program that change with each game. "I have some incredible students working with me. They are good writers. They get to the meat of the story and they understand deadlines."
In a recent three-week period, things were "a little crazy," she said, with two home football games plus programs for the men's and women's basketball series. Mondays before home football games are especially hectic.
"There are four things that we don't get until the Monday before the game: game notes, starting lineup, final roster and team stats," she said. Then it is a well-practiced hustle to get the information in order and ready for the printer.
By Wednesday, she is reading "blue lines" (proofs), and from then on, it is out of her hands. The program goes to the press Thursday, then to the bindery for delivery by noon Friday so they are assured that the programs can be in the fan's hands on Saturday.
Shelves lining the wall of her office have binders of programs she has produced since moving to that position in 1990. They serve as reminders of playing a part in great athletic seasons, of former athletes who have gone on to great things and of the "go Sooners" spirit of her alma mater.
Copp gets to know many of the student athletes on a personal level.
"We have some incredible student athletes whose stories are not just wins and losses. They have compelling stories of their lives and careers," she said.
She is able to write those stories so well that she has assumed another official role: Directing the awards application process for the athletes. She began doing that unofficially several years ago in response to requests.
"And then they began to notice that the ones I worked on were getting the awards," Copp said.
The rewards are great when she knows that her work has helped an athlete earn a scholarship or be recognized with a national award. She has helped several students with the application process, leading to NCAA scholarships for post-graduate work.
"I get to talk with the students … get to know them and find a compelling way to tell their story so that it stands out," she said.
Copp can just look around her niche in the office complex for athletic communications located on the upper level at the north end of the stadium and marvel at how things have changed since she got that part-time job as a student. She was manager of the women's basketball team.
It wasn't until the 1977-78 school year that women athletes were attending on athletic scholarships, and she is proud of the role women's sports play in OU's athletic program.
Copp has been active for many years in the College Sports Information Directors of America and chairs the organization's committee on committees.
Her work in sports information and with the organization was recently recognized when she was inducted into organization's Hall of Fame. She is only the second OU staffer to receive that honor, the other being Harold Keith, legendary OU sports publicity director from 1930 to 1969.
"My hero," she said of Keith.
Her leadership abilities are recognized on campus and she has been active in staff governance, twice serving as chair of the OU Staff Senate. She currently is serving in leadership with the OU campus United Way drive.
It was through her work on the Norman Women's Resource Board, which she currently chairs, that she began work with the Sullivan Family and the benefit concert that they present each Christmas. She is Betty Sullivan's "go-to" person working out details of the annual concert "so that all she has to do is sing."
It is Copp's plan to be at her job "as long as they will keep me. Working with students keeps me young, and I like to feel like I have made a difference in helping students," she said.

McALESTER —
Officials at the McAlester Army Ammunition Plant say the base does not manufacture the type of ammunition to blame in the deaths of several Marines in Nevada.
A mortar round exploded during a training exercise that killed at least eight Marines and injured several others Monday evening at the Hawthorne Army Depot in Nevada's high desert, the Associated Press reported. A 60 mm mortar round exploded in its firing tube during a mountain warfare training exercise, said Brig. Gen. Jim Lukeman during a news conference at Camp Lejeune, N.C. He said investigators are trying to determine the cause of the malfunction.
The Pentagon has issued a blanket suspension of 60 mm mortars and their associated firing tubes. The Pentagon earlier had suspended use of all high-explosive and illumination mortar rounds that were in the same manufacturing lots as ones fired in Nevada, the Associated Press reported.
"Ammunitions are made in lots," said Kevin Jackson, public relations representative for McAAP. "There is a specific lot that is of concern and we don't have it here" at McAAP, he said Wednesday.
The Pentagon expanded its temporary ban to prohibit the military from firing any 60 mm mortar rounds until the results of the investigation can determine their safety, the AP reported.
Jackson said McAAP does have the capacity to store the type of 60 mm ammunition identified in the fatal training accident, "but we do not store that particular lot." Jackson said McAAP doesn't manufacture the type of ammunition used, and doesn't have it on site nor detonate it.
It was not immediately clear whether more than a single round exploded in Nevada, a Marine Corps official told the AP, speaking on condition of anonymity because the official wasn't authorized to speak about an ongoing investigation.
The Marine Corps said early Tuesday that seven Marines were killed. But John Stroud, national junior vice commander in chief for the Veterans of Foreign Wars, began a memorial event in Nevada on Tuesday night by saying "one of the critical has passed," bringing the death toll to eight.
Members of the women's Auxiliary of VFW 231 then laid a wreath and eight individual floral arrangements at a park in Hawthorne where a flag flew at half-staff within sight of the Hawthorne depot's boundary.
"We honor the eight brave Marines who gave their lives to their country," Stroud said. "When the call of the country was heard, these eight young Marines answered."
Stroud said he spoke with Marine officers from Camp Lejeune who told him about the eighth death before the ceremony. Capt. Binford R. Strickland, a spokesman at Camp Lejeune, said in an email late Tuesday that he could only confirm that seven were killed and eight were injured.
The identities of those killed won't be released until 24 hours after their families are notified.
"We send our prayers and condolences to the families of Marines involved in this tragic incident," said the force's commander, Maj. Gen. Raymond C. Fox. "We mourn their loss, and it is with heavy hearts we remember their courage and sacrifice."
The rescue was complicated by the remoteness of the site, which is favored because the harsh geography simulates conditions in Afghanistan.
The 60 mm mortar is a weapon that traditionally requires three to four Marines to operate, but it's common during training for others to observe nearby. The firing tube is supported in a tripod-like design and fires roughly a 3-pound shell, some 14 inches in length and a bit larger than 2 inches in diameter.
The mortar has changed little since World War II and remains one of the simplest weapons to operate, which is why it is found at the lowest level of infantry units, said Joseph Trevithick, a mortar expert with Global Security.org.
"Basically, it's still a pipe and it's got a firing pin at the bottom," Trevithick said. Still, a number of things could go wrong, such as a fuse malfunction, a problem with the barrel's assembly, or a round prematurely detonating inside the tube, he said.
The Marine Corps official said an explosion at the point of firing in a training exercise could kill or maim anyone in or near the protective mortar pit and could concussively detonate any mortars stored nearby in a phenomenon known as "sympathetic detonation."
The official said a worldwide moratorium after such an accident is not unusual and would persist until the investigation determines that the weapon did not malfunction in ways that would hurt other Marines or that mortar shells manufactured at the same time as the one involved in the accident were safe.
The official said it would be normal to warn other U.S. military branches that use 60 mm mortars, such as the Army, about the Marines warning. The moratorium could last for weeks or months.
The investigation will focus on whether the Marines followed procedures to properly fire the weapon, or whether there was a malfunction in the firing device or in the explosive mortar shell itself, the official said.
The Hawthorne Army Depot stores and disposes of ammunition. The facility is made up of hundreds of buildings spread over more than 230 square miles, and bunkers dot the sagebrush-covered hills visible from the highway.
Renown hospital emergency physician Dr. Michael Morkin, at a news conference late Tuesday afternoon, said some of the injured Marines he treated were conscious and "knew something happened but didn't know what."
He said he's "fairly confident" that one of the most seriously injured Marines wouldn't have survived had it not been for the response of a Careflight medical helicopter to the remote site near Hawthorne, 140 miles southeast of Reno.
Morkin said the Marines mostly suffered blunt force trauma from shrapnel.
"They're injuries of varying severity ... to varying parts of the body. They're complicated injuries to deal with," he said.
Retired Nevada state archivist Guy Rocha said the Hawthorne depot opened in 1930, four years after a lightning-sparked explosion virtually destroyed the Lake Denmark Naval Ammunition depot in northern New Jersey, about 40 miles west of New York City.
The blast and fires that raged for days heavily damaged the adjacent Picatinny Army Arsenal and surrounding communities, killing 21 people and seriously injuring more than 50 others.
Hawthorne has held an important place in American military history since World War II when it became the staging area for ammunition, bombs and rockets for the war. The Nevada Division of Environmental Protection says that the depot employed more than 5,500 people at its peak.
The facility was considered safely remote, but strategically close to Navy bases in California.
Rocha said he was unaware of any other catastrophic event at the depot over the years it served as a munitions repository. The facility has downsized in recent years but survived a round of base closures nationwide in 2005.
Military officials noted that it gave Marines, Army and Navy personnel a place to train for deployment overseas.
"They train at a similar climate, elevation and terrain as Afghanistan," said Rocha, who has visited the depot many times over the years.
In the small town that calls itself "America's Patriotic Home" near the depot, a massive flag in a park across from the local war memorial waved at half-staff.
Larry Mortensen, an industrial engineer at the depot for 41 years before retiring in 1999, serves with his wife, Carole, on the board of directors of the Hawthorne Ordnance Museum. The museum displays hundreds of shells and other munitions, battery guns and weapons dating to World War II.
Mortensen said there had been fatal accidents at the depot in years past, but none resulting in mass casualties. He said he expected the rural town of about 3,500 residents to rally around victims' families.
"It's a military community. Everybody here supports the military," he said.

May 22, 2013 — The editor:
This week, as we remember loved ones who have passed on, I would like to remind everyone not to forget any four legged friends who have passed on as well.
We as a society are reminded daily of the riches and joy that these animals bring to our lives. Whether it is a dog, cat, or any other cuddly animal, no one can deny the impact they have on us. I know as an Afghanistan veteran, I have my dogs to thank for helping me through some tough times. Whether it is enticing me into a competitive game of fetch, or just a simple sit down in our favorite recliner for a quick nap, the joy that comes from it is a blessing.
I encourage everyone who reads this and knows where I am coming from, to join me in honoring my deceased beloved friends by donating to the Boyd County Animal Shelter this Memorial Day. From May 26 through June 1, during the second annual "You are remembered" campaign, the animal shelter will display the pictures of your beloved pets in the shelter and, with your permission, post them online for all to see. Just bring a bag of dog food and picture of your pet to the shelter and they will proudly display your pet for all to see how much they were a part of your lives.
This is a great way to honor your pet and help the many other homeless and abandoned pets that are still in need. You can contact the animal shelter at 324- 0745 for more information. I hope to see you all there and am looking forward to seeing all of the beautiful pictures. You never know, while you are there, you may find another best friend.

This chap was quite famous in some circles in New Zealand. This site says 'he is probably the most influential agricultural leader this country has produced'.
He married into my family so comes under my research sphere. When I was in Wellington recently, a family member shared a photo of him with me. Today I'm sharing it with you all because, not only was he a very bright fellow and a nice chap to boot, the photograph is pretty good. It was taken at Mt Ruapehu.

Averie Carrion says she got only two scratches from the accident Sunday night off Iowa Highway 10 between Alton and Granville in northwest Iowa.
According to a Sioux City television station, Jamie Carrion was headed home to Granville with Averie and her brother when their pickup slid off the highway and rolled, coming to rest on its side.
Jamie Carrion was trapped inside the truck cab and could not find her daughter. But Averie had left for a farmhouse to get help.
Summoned by Jamie Carrion's cell phone call, rescuers soon reunited the three at a nearby hospital, where they were treated and released.

NORFOLK, VA – The Charlotte Knights ended their seven-game road trip on Tuesday with a 6-4 loss to the Norfolk Tides at Harbor Park in Norfolk, VA. With the loss, the Knights will return to Knights Stadium with a 1-6 record.
Former Knights slugger Conor Jackson led the way for Norfolk, while Tides reliever Manny Delcarmen (1-0, 2.45) earned the win out of the bullpen.
Jackson, who spent the entire 2012 season with the Knights, went 3-4 with a run, a double, and an RBI on Tuesday for Norfolk. Through seven games this season, the Texas-born Jackson is hitting .313 (5-16) with two RBIs. Russ Canzler added his third home run of the season for the Tides.
Charlotte starter Zach Stewart allowed three runs on six hits over six innings and did not factor in the decision. Tony Pena Jr. (0-2, 4.50), who started game two of Saturday's doubleheader in Gwinnett, relieved Stewart and was saddled with the loss after allowing three runs on four hits over just one inning.
Spartanburg, SC native Steve Tolleson continued his hot-hitting. The University of South Carolina product went 2-3 with a double and two RBIs. Tolleson has hit safely in five of seven games this season and already has three multi-hit games. He's hitting .320 with one home run and seven RBIs.
The Knights mustered just five hits on the afternoon. Brent Morel, Seth Loman, and Luis Durango each had one hit on the day.
The Charlotte Knights will return home and play their much anticipated 2013 home opener on Thursday, April 11 at Knights Stadium against the Gwinnett Braves. Gates open at 6:00 p.m. and first pitch is set for 7:15 p.m. Thursday's game also marks the first Thirsty Thursday ™ of the season with $2 beers and $1 sodas, courtesy of Hickory Tavern.
RHP Andre Rienzo will get the nod for the Knights while Gwinnett will send RHP David Hale. The Knights will reveal the All Knights Stadium Team during a special pre-game on-field ceremony on Thursday and the Charlotte Knights Dance Team will also make their debut.

As a local news organization, Patch covers stories of all kinds, from heartbreaking tragedies to nitty-gritty breakdowns of government and school district issues. But some stories are simply inspiring, often showing that at the heart of our communities is a desire to do good. Here are some of the touching headlines from the past seven days.
A few New York City children are getting to spend a fun time in the sun on Long Island this summer, thanks to the Fresh Air fund, a program that provides free summer vacations to children from low-income communities.
Saul Saldivar, 12, and Mark Wilks, 13, both of Brooklyn, will be spending time on the North Fork. Wilks is staying with Greenport couple Carole and Richard Mavity, who have participated in Fresh Air for the past nine years.
"The first thing he wanted to do this year was to play mini-golf, but we haven't gotten to that yet," Carole said. "When he arrives, we make a calendar and fill in the things he'd like to do when he's here. We've already been sailing out of Orient, swimming at the beach, renting movies at the library for the evening. We know Mark really well and are always delighted to have him."
Meanwhile, Salvidar is staying with Kathleen Dwyer of East Marion and they've already gotten in some good beach and biking time.
One the South Fork, for several other children who have vacationed on the East End thanks to Fresh Air Fund.
Southampton Inn owner Dede Gotthelf hosted kids from Fresh Air Fund for three years, and she's organized the annual barbecue and pool party for the past five years.
For Amy Wilson, this is her family's second time hosting the same child, 9-year-old Marques Taylor of the Bronx.
"All the things we have to be grateful for — to share it with one more child is just wonderful," she told Patch.
When Stephan DePascale was diagnosed amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, also known as Lou Gehrig's Disease, it created a big problem for his business. As a woodworker, his hands are just as important as any tool. Luckily for him, his workers banded together to help, taking over the labor aspect of his while DePascale continued to manage.
And the business hasn't missed a beat, despite pressure from retailers such as Lowe's and Home Depot competing for business.
"It's not stopping us," he said. "I'm moving forward." said DePascale, a 33-year resident of Port Jefferson Station.
The Long Island Farm Bureau will for the first time give top honors to two women at its annual awards banquet.
Farmer and Riverhead resident Deb Schmitt, of Schmitt Farms, will receive the he Amherst Davis Memorial Farmer Citizen Award while Randi Dresner, president and CEO of food relief organization Island Harvest will be honored with the LIFB Citizen Award.
Sherman, a Kemp's Ridley sea turtle found cold-stunned in Sag Harbor in December, will be released back into the wild on Saturday after being rehabilitated by the Riverhead Foundation for Marine Research and Preservation.
The turtle will be let go at Tiana Beach at 5:30 p.m.
