In 1177 B.C., marauding groups known only as the "Sea Peoples" invaded Egypt. The pharaoh's army and navy managed to defeat them, but the victory so weakened Egypt that it soon slid into decline, as did most of the surrounding civilizations. After centuries of brilliance, the civilized world of the Bronze Age came to an abrupt and cataclysmic end. Kingdoms fell like dominoes over the course of just a few decades. No more Minoans or Mycenaeans. No more Trojans, Hittites, or Babylonians.
"But it was all going so well....."
Eric H. Cline tells the gripping story of the "First Dark Ages," and provides an accessible introduction to the era between the past of Egypt and the rise of Classical Greece. Cline's compelling narrative (expertly narrated by Andy Caploe) offers new insight into an important historical period and expertly draws parallels to contemporary times.
Audible brings to life through dramatic performance the 1945-1946 radio broadcast reports covering the greatest courtroom drama of the 20th century - the Nuremberg trials. The original broadcasts have been lost forever, but the verbatim text - written by Harold Burson, founding chairman of one of the world's leading public relations firms, Burson Marsteller, who at the time was a reporter for the Armed Forces Network - has been newly interpreted by an ensemble of some of our fine actors.
"Now there was radio!"
Report from Nuremberg utilizes the transcripts of Harold Burson, then a young reporter for Armed Forces Network radio, and a stellar cast of voices, to create this original production that blends journalism, history, and dramatic reenactment to envision what it was like to experience the trials firsthand.
Why we think it's a great listen: Seabiscuit was a runaway success, and Hillenbrand's done it again with another true-life account about beating unbelievable odds. On a May afternoon in 1943, an Army Air Forces bomber crashed into the Pacific Ocean and disappeared, leaving only a spray of debris and a slick of oil, gasoline, and blood. Then, on the ocean surface, a face appeared.....
"Hillenbrand could make even laundry fascinating!"
Virtually all human societies were once organized tribally, yet over time most developed new political institutions which included a central state that could keep the peace and uniform laws that applied to all citizens. Some went on to create governments that were accountable to their constituents. We take these institutions for granted, but they are absent or are unable to perform in many of today's developing countries—with often disastrous consequences for the rest of the world.
"Best Summary of Political History I've Read"
In August of 1914, the British ship Endurance set sail for the South Atlantic. In October, 1915, still half a continent away from its intended base, the ship was trapped, then crushed in the ice. For five months, Sir Ernest Shackleton and his men, drifting on ice packs, were castaways in one of the most savage regions of the world.
Daniel James Brown's robust book tells the story of the University of Washington's 1936 eight-oar crew and their epic quest for an Olympic gold medal, a team that transformed the sport and grabbed the attention of millions of Americans. The sons of loggers, shipyard workers, and farmers, the boys defeated elite rivals first from eastern and British universities and finally the German crew rowing for Adolf Hitler in the Olympic games in Berlin, 1936.
"Do you believe in miracles??"
Bill Bryson has been an enormously popular author both for his travel books and for his books on the English language. Now, this beloved comic genius turns his attention to science. Although he doesn't know anything about the subject (at first), he is eager to learn, and takes information that he gets from the world's leading experts and explains it to us in a way that makes it exciting and relevant.
"Very informative, fun to listen to"
A highly infectious, deadly virus from the central African rain forest suddenly appears in the suburbs of Washington, D.C. There is no cure. In a few days, 90 percent of its victims are dead. A secret military SWAT team of soldiers and scientists is mobilized to stop the outbreak of this exotic "hot" virus. The Hot Zone tells this dramatic story, giving a hair-raising account of the appearance of rare and lethal viruses and their "crashes" into the human race. Shocking, frightening, and impossible to ignore, The Hot Zone proves that truth really is scarier than fiction.
"If you love viruses and gore and non-fiction..."
This Pulitzer Prize-winning history of World War II chronicles the dramatic rise and fall of the Japanese empire, from the invasion of Manchuria and China to the atomic bombing of Hiroshima and Nagasaki. Told from the Japanese perspective, The Rising Sun is, in the author's words, "a factual saga of people caught up in the flood of the most overwhelming war of mankind, told as it happened - muddled, ennobling, disgraceful, frustrating, full of paradox."
Four US Navy SEALS departed one clear night in early July, 2005 for the mountainous Afghanistan-Pakistan border for a reconnaissance mission. Their task was to document the activity of an al Qaeda leader rumored to have a small army in a Taliban stronghold. Five days later, only one of those Navy SEALS made it out alive. This is the story of the only survivor of Operation Redwing, SEAL team leader Marcus Luttrell, and the extraordinary firefight that led to the largest loss of life in American Navy SEAL history.
"True Tale of Courage and Honor"
The Nazis discovered it. The Allies won the war with it. It conquered diseases, changed laws, and single-handedly launched the era of antibiotics. This incredible discovery was sulfa, the first antibiotic medication. In The Demon Under the Microscope, Thomas Hager chronicles the dramatic history of the drug that shaped modern medicine.
"A pleasure in listening"
The Path Between the Seas tells the story of the men and women who fought against all odds to fulfill the 400-year-old dream of constructing an aquatic passageway between the Atlantic and Pacific oceans. It is a story of astonishing engineering feats, tremendous medical accomplishments, political power plays, heroic successes, and tragic failures. McCullough expertly weaves the many strands of this momentous event into a captivating tale.
"No Stone Unturned"
In this Pulitzer Prize-winning classic, historian Barbara Tuchman brings to life the people and events that led up to World War I. This was the last gasp of the Gilded Age, of Kings and Kaisers and Czars, of pointed or plumed hats, colored uniforms, and all the pomp and romance that went along with war. How quickly it all changed...and how horrible it became.
One of the most admired nonfiction writers of our time retells the story of one truly fabulous year in the life of his native country - a fascinating and gripping narrative featuring such outsized American heroes as Charles Lindbergh, Babe Ruth, and yes Herbert Hoover, and a gallery of criminals (Al Capone), eccentrics (Shipwreck Kelly), and close-mouthed politicians (Calvin Coolidge). It was the year Americans attempted and accomplished outsized things and came of age in a big, brawling manner. What a country. What a summer. And what a writer to bring it all so vividly alive.
"Why 1927?"
A dramatic countdown of the final months of World War II in Europe, The Last 100 Days brings to life the waning power and the ultimate submission of the Third Reich. To reconstruct the tumultuous hundred days between Yalta and the fall of Berlin, John Toland traveled more than 100,000 miles in twenty-one countries and interviewed more than six hundred people - from Hitler's personal chauffeur to Generals von Manteuffel, Wenck, and Heinrici.
In this riveting, informative, and entertaining book, Stelzer draws on previously untapped material, diaries of guests, and a wide variety of other sources to tell of some of the key dinners at which Churchill presided before, during, and after World War II.
6th April, 1994: In the skies above Rwanda the president's plane is shot down in flames. The mass slaughter that follows is one of the bloodiest chapters in history. Twenty years on, BBC Newsnight producer David Belton, one of the first journalists into Rwanda, tells of the horrors he experienced. He revisits a country still marked with blood, in search of those who survived and the legacy of those who did not.

Award-winning and critically acclaimed historian Helen Rappaport turns to the tragic story of the daughters of the last Tsar of all the Russias, slaughtered with their parents at Ekaterinburg. On 17 July 1918, four young women walked down 23 steps into the cellar of a house in Ekaterinburg. The eldest was 22, the youngest only 17. Together with their parents and their 13-year-old brother, they were all brutally murdered. Their crime: to be the daughters of the last Tsar and Tsaritsa of All the Russias.

Ferdinand Lot (1866-1952) was one of the great historians of his generation, and the transition from Roman to Medieval civilization was a process that fascinated him most of his life. Rather than placing the emphasis for Rome's fall on purely political or military reasons, Lot put forth multiple explanations for the birth of the Middle Ages which embrace not only politics and war, but linguistic, geographic, cultural, social and economic factors.

To the editor:
Governments were set up to serve and protect us, the people, so we should be voting for those who will fulfill those functions.
For instance, will the candidate vote for policies that you believe will serve us, or will he vote with others in his party, even if they serve narrow, privileged interests and against what you believe is the "general welfare"? Will the candidate consider the Constitutional mandate to "promote the general Welfare" when voting in Congress? The ability of a president to carry out that mandate depends largely on the collaboration of a legislature that will pass laws to fulfill that function.
Voting for a person because of personal attributes that are extraneous to his function as a legislator and who will vote with a party that neglects the "general welfare" mandate, is to promote the same gridlock we see now in Congress.
If you want President Barack Obama to carry out that constitutional mandate, then give him the representative (John Tierney) and the senator (Elizabeth Warren) he will need.

Can you remember any movies in the past that WEREN'T screened, and ended up being OK upon final viewing?
Journal Sentinel TV and film critic Duane Dudek looks at life on the small and big screen, and some of the cool stuff on both.
Knowing, Not Knowing
In the thriller "Knowing," opening Friday, Nicolas Cage plays a scientist who discovers an apocalyptic prophecy and spends the film trying to prevent it from happening.
The film, by Alex Proyas who directed "Dark City" and "I, Robot," is an "X-Files" kitchen sink so stuffed with influences - sci-fi, supernatural and spiritual - that it's hard to tell just what genre it is.
And its audacious out-of-left field ending will either win over audiences or alienate them.
I, for one, didn't see it coming. But then no on expects the Spanish Inquisition.
At least "Knowing," which reminded me of "The Fountain," had the courage of its crazy convictions.
Which is more than you can say about "Duplicity."
You would think a movie with Julia Roberts and Clive Owen would welcome publicity, good or bad, and was critic proof in any case. But for probably economic but possibly creative reasons "Duplicity" was not screened in advance here, and so will not be reviewed in Friday's paper.
It is a studio's prerogative not to screen a film in advance.
Since a review is free publicity it is my experience any film that does not give critics a chance to take a swing at it, has something to hide. Last year more than 60 films were not screened locally in advance, typically low budget, horror, comedies, teen films and Bollywood.
Without an advance screening, usually with an audience in attendance as with Tuesday's "Knowing" showing at the AMC Mayfair 18, there is no way to alert readers to a film's merits or lack of them.
When a film is not previewed my reaction is two-fold - well, that's one less film to worry about, and I'll cover films that are grateful for the coverage.
In the case of "Duplicity," which expects to lure audiences with star power and advertising, screenings were only held in top markets, a dubious marketing strategy that rubs the local boy in me the wrong way.
While this only affects my little, to getting smaller, corner of the world, there are broader implications.
This is Sunshine Week, when the media focuses on the importance of open government and freedom of information. And while I do not equate not screening a film in advance with a public records violation, the effect is the same - denying cultural consumers information about something someone else wants them to buy.
Regional film critics and coverage are becoming a luxury as newspapers downsize.
And studios only bite off their nose to spite their face by failing to help them do their job. Because every time a screening is not held and a review does not appear, a regional film critic dies.
And then who will cover their film?
How bad can "Duplicity" be? Perhaps it isn't bad at all.
But at this point, there's no way of knowing.

Duane --
Can you remember any movies in the past that WEREN'T screened, and ended up being OK upon final viewing?
Transsiberian and Cadillac Records received good reviews but were not shown here. Years ago, the Woody Allen film Melinda and Melinda, maybe not good but from a director of note, and Bamboozled, from Spike Lee, did not screen.
Way back in 1995 - yes I do hold grudges - Marcus opened Claude Lelouch's "Les Miserables," but did not screen it. I later gave it four stars. The problem is that at the end of each week I move on to the next week, and rarely go back and catch things unless they are of particular interest. But typically it is marginal films that are not screened, like Rambo, Max Payne, The Happening - all from last year. There were 62 films by our count that did not screen last year.

The Journal Sentinel's team of Packers beat writers provide the latest news, notes and analysis
McCarthy sending defensive staff to college to learn read-option
Green Bay - Packers coach Mike McCarthy is not one to allow something to remain broken.
If he sees a structural problem, he tries to fix it in the off-season.
With that in mind, McCarthy plans on sending his defensive staff to Texas A & M to study the read-option offense and ways to defend it.
He's not the first person to reach out to college coaches for help. Baltimore Ravens defensive coordinator Dean Pees did the same thing in the two weeks before Super Bowl XLVII and it paid off big dividends.
McCarthy's defense took a 579-yard beating against the San Francisco 49ers and their read-option offense led by quarterback Colin Kaepernick in a divisional round playoff loss. He'd prefer that not happen again.
"Definitely there's a lot of conversation about the read option – rightfully so," McCarthy said. "Five hundred seventy-nine, that's a number that will stick in our focus as a defense throughout the offseason. We're studying the read option, the teams that are doing it in the NFL.
"We're even going to the college ranks, we'll have a couple college coaches come in, spend some time with our staff. Actually, our defensive staff is going to take a trip to Texas A&M, Kevin Sumlin is someone I have great respect for and with his ability to share from both the offensive side and the defensive side his experience in the read option.
"It's something from an education, preparation standpoint that we will grow as a staff and be better prepared for in the future."
Sumlin is the head coach who succeeded former Packers coach Mike Sherman at Texas A & M. McCarthy got to know Sumlin through special teams coach Shawn Slocum, who coached there before coming to Green Bay. Texas A & M moved to the SEC last year and faces a considerable amount of option football.
"Just the fact what theyt've done on offense and the ability to face it on defense all the time in the SEC," McCarthy said of why he thought studying the Aggies would help. "We thought this would be a great opportunity. We've very thankful for him to bring our staff in."
McCarthy said this is the first time he's sent a staff to study with college coaches.
He said he had no regrets about the way his defense prepared for the 49ers, but he said they have studied it to see what they could do better.
"We've looked at our preparation, we've looked at our performance, we evaluate every aspect of our performance," he said. "You look at the communication – player-to-player, player-to-coach, coach-to-coach – you look at the relationships – coach-to-coach, player-to-player, all the way through – the teaching, the demand of the coaches. We go through an extensive evaluation every year.
"There's more things in certain areas than there were in the past, there's not as many things in certain areas as there were in the past. So it's about getting better, it's about improvement, and we need to do a better job stopping the read-option. That's definitely something we're focused on."

Too bad he didn't do that BEFORE the 49'er game.
Although this is a good idea, I have to agree with McGinn that it wasn't the read option that killed the team against the 49ers that game, it was Kaepernick's scrambling out of the pocket on pass plays that broke their back.
Sure, his 80-whatever yard run came from an option, but it was the first downs he got by scrambling that extended a number of drives, that ultimately lead to TDs, that won the game. All due to a pass rush not focused on containing him, but rather an unfocused one that lead to huge holes.
By the way, I hate the term 'read option'. We ran the same play in high school. And we called it 'the option'. The "read" part is implied. The QB reads the defense before determining what to do. The QB also goes through his defensive reads before throwing the ball, but we don't call it "read-pass".Hide replies
You mean having your linebackers turn their backs to a scrambling QB is not a good thing?
That too.
"Mike McCarthy is not one to allow something to remain broken."
Ohh the fun I could have with that one..........Hide replies
i am so sure you could....
MM is going get this issue fixed I have no doubts and the help from Ted Thompson picking up some aggressive D players
Hahahahahahahaha! Yeah MM's real good at that sort of thing!
The easiest and best way to play it is very aggressively. Hitting the QB every time they fake the run is a good way to end the option fairly quickly in the NFL. I also think that Kaepernick only playing part of the year is a good think for the 9er's. If a QB takes a years worth of hits from the option they will likely not be 100% for the playoffs. I normally back Dom Capers but he should have played the option a lot more aggressively.Hide replies
It just takes one solid hit to make the QB think twice about running that play aggressively.
In the '88 Super Bowl year, Ickey Woods was a rookie, and was all-world. Nobody wanted to hit him either, since he was a large punishing back. While studying game film of the Bengals in preparation for the SB, Ronnie Lott noticed no defender hit Woods head on; rather, they tried to avoid the force of his runs and tackled from the side.
Lott thought, I wonder if Woods can take a hit? He decided that if he ever got the chance in the game, he would hit him head on, no matter the consequences to his body.
He got his shot, and leveled a blow into him.
Woods was never the same in that game. And his career. He was out of football 3 years later.
Too bad 28 teams lack a guy like Ronnie Lott to deliver that type of hit. Incredible player. Heart of a champion.
Hey...the Packers had a shot at him, right? Who did they pick?
Isn't Dom a little old to be reliving 'Back to School' like Rodney Dangerfield?
Also, I'm not recalling a great read-option QB A&M beat last year and Sumlin has been an offensive coach his entire car so this is a real head scratcher.
Every college coach, and apparently most here, knows you have to hit the QB in the option. This isn't giving me a warm, fuzzy feeling.
Finally, I'd like to see TT take a run at Gholston and either add a hard hitting S or make the 49ers overpay to keep him.
When something relatively new such as the read option its always good to go back to school. Just like computer programming always polishing your skills. I think the Packers can get it done next year and a rematch against the Niners will have a new outcome
A lot of folks are mentioning that you "hit the QB" to stop the option.
That's the problem in the current NFL...YOU AREN'T ALLOWED TO CREAM THE QB ON THE PITCH. It's a penalty if you play too aggressively.
Joe Thiesman (sp) was doing an interview about this a few weeks back. In the 70's and 80's...you got killed on the option/pitch play. Now? You can't go beyond what, a step or two and you get called for a penalty (as a defender).
Assignment sure teams can still stop the option at the NFL level.Hide replies
If the QB is a runner he loses the protection afforded to him as a passer. So YES you can cream the QB. No you can't just him the QB 5 steps after he pitches but if he is optioning a DE the end should just take the QB. It only takes a few solid hits before the pitch comes quicker and quicker. Making the play a lot more ineffective. If the end is trying to read the play he will be flat footed and not make many plays. In the NFL getting any hit you get on a QB you should take it. PS Thiesman is an idiot.
Has Capers been fired yet? What a laughingstock this organization is becoming. The DC has back to back historical flops and he's still coaching. Now he's going to have college coaches teach him how to do his job. Why not just hire the college coach? Hahahahaha! Time clean house in the front office.
Did the Packers rehire Dom Capers? We havent heard a thing about it.
Here's a link to an article relating to a topic I heard Pat and Tim discussing on Sirius radio. Seems like the officials are prone to give the QBs added protection whether or not the rules provide the protection.
http://www.usatoday.com/story/sports/nfl/2012/10/03/robert-griffin-iii-washington-redskins-hits/1611589/Hide replies
Thanks for the link, malcom. Interesting take from Griffin.
Sirius radio = the best NFL coverage in the business.
Whether someone "likes" him or not, he was a Super Bowl winning QB and a tough son of a gun. Theismann did an interview w Schien/Gannon before the Super Bowl, and they were talking about this read option question. No matter what the rule is INTENDED to be...the reality is the officials are protecting the QB on the pitch. So...actually, you CAN'T cream the QB because they are protecting them.
Your article mentions that Griffin raises his arm (as instructed by officials) to queue them that his fake is complete. That's basically what Joe T was saying. If Ora and others think officials aren't protecting QB's, watch Nick Perry's hit on Luck or Walden's roughing call on Wilson near the sideline in the Seattle game (and about 2 more calls per game I watched this season that were questionably called).
Per malcolm's link:
"One time I carried out my fake and didn't put my hands up, and he came and found me, and he said, 'Make sure you put your hands up,'" Griffin said Wednesday. "They protected me a lot more out there as a quarterback, which is how it's supposed to be."
This is GRIFFIN'S take on the officials.

Alec Baldwin offers praise to President Barack Obama for his jokes at the 2010 White House Correspondents' Dinner in Washington, D.C. He jokingly announces he will be running for president, but will Tracy Morgan be his running mate?
Alec Baldwin won't shake the political bug until he gets sworn in to some office, somewhere.
The liberal "30 Rock" actor, who has made no secret of his political ambitions in the past, told CNN's Eliot Spitzer that he's "very interested" in a run for office.
"It's something that I'm very, very interested in," said Baldwin in an interview set to air Wednesday night.
Baldwin, 52, said what he wants to see from elected leaders is "people who have not lost sight about what the middle class in this country is." And, despite his fame and success, he says that "whatever I've accrued in my career doing that, it hasn't changed me as a person."
Most recently, Baldwin reportedly considered running for Congress on his native Long Island before saying through his agent that "now is not the time." In 2006, Baldwin told The New York Times what office he would most like to hold.
"If I ever ran for anything, the thing I would like to be is governor of New York," he said. And then, he took a shot at another actor who became a politician.
"That's what I hate about Arnold Schwarzenegger," Baldwin said. "His only credentials are that he ran a fitness program under some bygone president...I'm de Tocqueville compared to Schwarzenegger."

Thread: Luke French
Luke French
Luke French is a lefthanded starting pitcher for the New Britain Rock Cats. At the age of 26, Luke French has had a cup of coffee in the show. 155 innings of Folgers in your cup to be exact with the Tigers and Mariners over 2009 and 2010. Returning to the majors is the best part of waking up and Luke appears to be wiping the sleep from his eyes through 5 starts and 30 innings of work thus far pitching for the Rock Cats in 2012. French is currently pacing the New Britain starting staff with a 1.80 ERA and a WHIP under 1.00 at 0.967. That's 30 innings of work, he has given up 17 hits, 12 walks and only 18 strikeouts. Without a calculator in hand, you could surmise that those numbers add up to a lot of balls put in play and thus far the majority of those balls find a glove somewhere on the field.
Throughout his career, French was never the type to knock you out as he seems to prefer the rope-a-dope style. He is the ultimate pitch to contact pitcher, never eclipsing triple digits in strikeouts, in any year.
Luke was Born in Kansas but he achieved his high school All American status while attending High School in Littleton Colorado. This brought him to the attention of the Scouts and led to an 8th round selection by the Detroit Tigers in 2004 which was the same year the Tigers grabbed Justin Verlander in the 1st round.
Luke reported to rookie ball that year and despite never having overwhelming stats at any level he steadily progressed up the ladder and French made his debut in a Tigers uniform at the age of 23 in 2009 and after 5 starts and a respectable 3.38 ERA and 1-2 win loss record. He was traded to the Mariners, part of the deal that netted the Tigers Jerrod Washburn.
Luke was excited about the trade because he admittedly grew up a huge Mariners Fan. However, his time in Seattle wouldn't last long as he finished up 2009 making 7 starts and posting a 6.63 ERA. He split time in 2010 between Seattle and Tacoma which is one of the shorter MLB-AAA MLB hops, distance wise, that you can make. Luke finished 2010 with 13 starts for the Mariners and 4.83 ERA.
2011 was a disaster, pitching for Tacoma exclusively before the team he loved DFA'd him in August. The culprit for his tossing was a 6.27 ERA.
Now Luke is picking up the pieces after signing a minor league contract with the Twins in January and so far, obviously, so good and as long as he keeps hitting his spots, who knows, maybe he'll find his way back.
Seth Stohs sent me a private message stating that Luke has been called up to AAA Rochester. I couldn't find any news that confirmed this but Seth is probably all the confirmation you need.
One Last note... I actually looked up what the Origin of the last name "French" was. Interestingly enough... It's not French in Origin, it's IRISH!!! This makes me laugh, and it's a wonderful quirk in the world of Geneology. Kind of like getting a Cat and naming it "Dog".

Had the opportunity to watch Luke pitch this Spring Training in an intersquad game of Field #2 at Fort Myers. I will dig my files to see if I have any pictures. My first thoughts were: a. Darn, he is an imposing figure. The guy is big. Almost Tyler Robertson big. Can play DE for the Vikings big. b. He tosses so softly. He must have 4-5 different pitches ranging from low low 70s to mid 80s. I think that that fastest fastball I saw him toss was at 86. He is a nibbler. What people call "crafty leftie" (aka "junkballer"). Here is one occassion where the pitching style does not fit the player's frame...-----

That's a question for TR. He's a Red Wing now and if he keeps up the pitch spotting. Minnesota is next.

Luke made his first Start for the Red Wings on Thursday (May 3). He pitched 5 Innings giving up 3 runs on 4 hits and 2 walks with 1 home run allowed. Not a bad first start and not an amazing one either. The Red Wings won 4 to 3.
Frenchy made his third Red Wing start and suffered a tinge of wildness, out of character for a control pitcher like himself. His line reads 5IP... 4 runs on 6 hits, a couple of free passes and he was charged with 3 wild pitches including a wild pitch strikeout with two outs and a runner on third that plated a run for Louisville. Left handed Louisville Bats RF Bill Rhinehart took lefty Luke French deep in the 4th inning. Back to Back Doubles in the third and a pair of Walks and a wild pitch in the 5th were the primary blemishes on what was another LUKE warm performance. His ERA now sits at 6.75.
Rocheter did manage to come back and win the game scoring two runs in the 8th for a 5 4 victory. Sean Burroughs now hitting .360 drove in the game winner with a double.

Cellar/Tasting Notes The 2011 Pinot Noir Two Brothers, tasted from barrel, is hugely promising. There is a level of purity in the fruit that is simply beautiful. The style is a bit exuberant for the year, but all the elements are very much in balance. A blast of sweet red cherries, dried flowers and sweet spices flow..

August 9, 2006
Human feces covered the floor of an Orange County apartment and the landlord refused to clean it up. On Wednesday, the tenant, Annie Payne, will have a chance to present her case at trial. During the hearing both Payne and the landlord refused to settle.
Payne said the human feces and awful smell spewed out of a drain in the floor covering her belongings not once, but twice.
Payne is suing her landlord Donnie McDaniel for $5,000 in damages to her clothes, furniture, as well as hotel bills. At the advice of her attorney, Payne now increased her asking price to $15,000. Payne said she's saddened that it had to come to this.
"I'm just a bit surprised about the whole thing. All I ever wanted was just to have all of that cleaned and just to be treated like a human being, someone who is giving [the landlord] money for a clean, livable unit," said Payne.
Her landlord, McDaniel, is also counter-suing since Payne has not paid for last month's rent. Payne feels she does not owe the money because the apartment was not livable.
The landlord did not want to speak on-camera, but he did say "everything will come out in the trial."
The trial date has been set for September 8.

Times West Virginian
Considering how little West Virginia University has left to play for this afternoon in its regular season finale against Iowa State, the focus falls upon senior Deniz Kilicli, to whom it is a game with great meaning.
The 1:30 p.m. game has little to do with WVU's final status in its first season in the Big 12 as it enters the game with a 13-17 overall record and 6-11 conference mark, worrying only about seeding in the conference tournament.
The Mountaineers are tied with Texas for seventh in the conference and, in truth, they probably don't even want to finish seventh … that putting them in the bracket with No. 1 seed Kansas.
But that's small stuff, really, for this team has shown no indication that it can go past a round in the conference tournament, which would almost certainly keep it out of post-season play completely, which turns the focus on Senior Day.
There are, in truth, three seniors in Dominique Rutledge, Matt Humphrey and Kilicli, but Kilicli has been here the longest and been sort of the focal point of this year's team … sometimes good, sometimes bad, always on center stage.
For him it will be an emotional time, not only because of how he has come from Turkey to become a part of Mountaineer lore, but because his parents will be here for the first time to see him play as a collegian.
And if it will be an emotional time for the player and his family, it will be equally emotional for his coach, Bob Huggins, who comes across as big and gruff but really has a warm spot in his heart for his players, especially Kilicli.
"Deniz has been one of my favorite guys," Huggins said, a strong statement considering he has been coaching for 31 years. "I never really had a European player before."
Kilicli took to Huggins right away.
"He talks about how he liked me when he first got here, before he could understand what I was saying," Huggins laughs.
"He was there for me whenever I needed him," Kilicli said, referring mostly to his young days here when he 18 and learning to speak the language and what life at an American college was like.
The two developed a father-son relationship, a teacher-student relationship.
Huggins could be tough, but he was also understanding and appreciative of the kind of person Kilicli was, one who not only was tied into basketball but into life itself, right down to playing guitar.
"I appreciated the way he embraced the people of West Virginia and the culture of the state," Huggins said.
Kilicli got to be part of a Final Four team, got to play with some great players including Da'Sean Butler and Kevin Jones, but his senior year became something of a disaster, and no one seemed to take it harder than him.
"I'm not healthy. I can't sleep and I can't eat," he said after the last loss at Oklahoma, another tough game in which the team fell far behind early and came back only to lose.
It was much like the first game against Iowa State, a game in which the Mountaineers fell behind by 18 points with 9:04 remaining before going on a furious comeback.
They switched to a four-guard lineup and Kevin Noreen — Kilicli on the bench most of the time — and began hitting 9 of 12 3s after having missed their first 12.
The Mountaineers drew even in that game on a 3 by Jabarie Hinds, but Iowa State got the ball to Will Clyburn on the wing with time running out. As two Mountaineers converged to double-team him, he found Georges Niang alone under the basket for the game-winning layup.

About 70 Iona students gathered in the LaPenta Student Union building at Iona College to listen to the first presidential debate and discuss the issues with Patch.
The event—in which students watched the CNN broadcast of the debate between President Barack Obama and Gov. Mitt Romney of Massachusetts, was co-sponsored by Democracy Matters, Model UN and Pi Sigma Alpha, the political science honor society. Dr. Tricia Mulligan, chairwoman and associate professor of political science, and Dawn Insanalli, Iona's director of media relations, helped facilitate the evening.
Patch was represented at the viewing party by Regional Editor William Demarest and New Rochelle Editor Michael Woyton, who moderated a panel discussion with a select group of political science students and the group at large.
The panel was comprised of Amanda Kelly, 21, and Rachel Paquin, 21, members of the Pi Sigma Alpha political science honor society; Kate Roberts, 20, and Andrea Rodgers, 20, of Democracy Matters; Laura Lubrano, 20, of Model UN, and Andrew Jordan, 20.
The reviews from the crowd were mixed with many not impressed by either candidate's performance.
During the debate, Romney mentioned that college graduates were having a tough time finding employment.
Lubrano said she didn't hear anything specific from Romney on how he would remedy that.
"Mitt Romney said he was going to increase jobs, increase jobs," she said, "but he didn't say how. He never seemed to lay out a plan."
Lubrano got the same impression from Obama.
"He had great ideas but not really a lot of feedback on how to follow through with them," she said.
Rodgers said that Obama wanted to invest in education "so there's more training … so that more people are trained and potentially get more jobs."
The next debate will be between Vice President Joe Biden and Rep. Paul Ryan. It will occur Oct. 11.
Obama and Romney will meet again to debate Oct. 16, for a town meeting covering foreign and domestic policy, and Oct. 22, for a discussion on foreign policy.
Patch will have more about debate reaction throughout the day.

Kokomo Tribune
---- — Perfor-mance metrics and "key priority items" sound like dry management talk, but they provide insight into how Gov. Mike Pence is slowly taking the reins of the state and crafting Indiana's govern-ment with his own priorities.
Pence as governor has lacked much of the definition former Gov. Mitch Daniels established over eight years in office — and the image Pence crafted for himself as a social crusader over a dozen years in Congress hasn't stuck around.
But his agenda is slowly emerging, in ways both obvious and oblique.
Budget Director Chris Atkins delivered new priorities last week during a "lull" around the Statehouse, focusing on infant mortality, youth smoking and obesity and a slew of "jobs" metrics, including employment among Indiana's war veterans.
In some cases, Atkins pointed out they are how Pence will determine whether state government is doing its job.
"They are the chief means by which the governor will hold agencies accountable," Atkins said at a Statehouse briefing, where he added Pence will award agencies with more money depending on how they perform.
The Pence team is done dancing with the Legislature, for the most part, until next session. And 2013 is a rare off-year, without statewide elections to draw the young administration out across the state.
In many ways, Pence has been hampered by a political reality he has acknowledged in catchphrases like "good to great," inherently recognizing Daniels' continuing popularity. And Pence has just had a slow start grasping state government. Like Daniels did in 2005, Pence came into the Statehouse "cold" following a stint in Washington.
The new governor's first-term legislative agenda slowly trickled out over the four-month session, with some confusion over which items were his, with the stark exception of the income tax cut. Pence signed a series of executive orders on his first day in office, placing a hold on new state regulations and establishing "family impact statements" across state agencies.
GOP Chairman Eric Holcomb announced he would be leaving to run U.S. Sen. Dan Coats' state office and former Lt. Gov. Becky Skillman announced she was stepping down as a national committee member to focus on her new job as an economic development director in southwest Indiana.
It was a key reminder that Daniels no longer presides in Indianapolis. Both Pence and Daniels are prominent Republicans with political footprints stretching well beyond the state borders, but the current governor has walked a fine line trying to define himself as a conservative Republican who's distinct from Daniels.
He now has another chance to place his stamp on the state with the coming pick of a new party chairman. That's expected soon, well before Holcomb's July 9 departure.

Garner is 15-0 and plays Greensboro Page (14-0) for the N.C. High School Athletic Association 4AA football championship at 3 p.m. today at BB&T Field in Winston-Salem.
The Garner football team has been in the state playoffs for 26 straight years. The Trojans won a state championship in 1987 and played for the state title in 1998.
The 1987 Garner team was the last Wake County school to win a NCHSAA state football championship.
Garner averages 46.5 points per game. Last week, Garner scored in the closing minutes to take a 34-27 victory over Fayetteville's Jack Britt High.
Garner's student cheering section is known as the Blue Crew. The most famous member of the Blue Crew is Scotty McCreery, who won "American Idol" last spring. McCreery usually sits on the front row of the student section and in the past has left the stands to go near the field to lead cheers. No spectators will be allowed on field level during the state finals at BB&T Field.
Garner's boys basketball team has been successful, too. The 2010-11 team finished with a 26-1 record.
Garner football coach Nelson Smith has a 131-27 career coaching record since becoming head coach in 2000. He had been an assistant coach at the school since 1983. He played college football at East Carolina University.

The dash cam video picks up just before Officer Birk exits his patrol car. You see a person cross the street from left to right, then John T. Williams is seen crossing and goes out of view. When Officer Birk steps out of his patrol car, his personal radio microphone switches on.
Officer Birk: "Hey, Hey, Hey. Put the knife down, put the knife down, put the knife down."
(Shots fired) Bang, bang, bang, bang, bang.
Officer Birk radios in: "Unit 33. Shots fired Boren and Howell. Subject wouldn't drop the knife."
Dispatcher: "Shots fired. Boren and Howell...."
Further radio transmissions can then be heard.
Then, a faint woman's voice can be heard saying, "He didn't do anything."
Officer Birk can be heard saying "Ma'am, he had a knife and he wouldn't drop it."
The radio dispatcher asks for a status report.
Officer Birk answers, "Under control. Subject is down."
Dispatcher: "Copy. Subject is down."
When other officers arrive, Birk can be heard saying:
"He had the knife open. I approached him. I asked him to drop it multiple times. He wouldn't drop it and he turned towards me."
Other officers can then be heard talking among as they deal with the scene.
Then, in response to an officer asking if he's ok, Birk says:
"Yeah, I'm fine."
The officer asks "he just had a knife?"
Birk: "Yeah, he had it out. He was carving it up, carving up that board, with it open. I approached him, and the tool (?), I instructed him to drop it multiple times. He wouldn't do it."
Other officer: "Good job."
Birk: "Yeah."

The forum game "Return to Gobwin Bump" will be ending in a few more turns - after all, the Alliance has returned to Gobwin Bump, and captured the City.
I'm thinking ahead to a new chapter in the ongoing saga that is "The Battle for Gobwin Bump", and this thread is to see if anyone out there wants to participate.
The current version has four active players, and I think the next one could go as high as 8 before I need to deputise another GM to keep track of things.
So, what will it be about?
If you are a current player in The Battle for Gobwin Bump, you may not want to read on.
Spoiler: show
Oh, who am I kidding? Of course you're going to read on. Look, you already did!
Spoiler: show
Basically, we join the game at the point where Book II in the comic begins - Unaroyal falls, and Gowbin Bump and the allied forces within it are cut off from their home sides. One player is appointed ruler, and the rest can choose to be part of the new nation of the Bump, or become Barbarian Tribes. Under pressure from all sides, can the new nation survive until the Alliance can reestablish communications? {Unless, of course, Jetstone falls in the next few comics and the whole storyline falls apart...}
We'll be using the rules that are currently drafted as "The Battle for three point three", which you can find a link to in my signature.
Post your interest or questions here.

HOUSTON—Outside a busy early voting place in the Montrose area, a physical education teacher approached voters with political push cards and a message.
"School bonds," said Richard Solis. "The bottom of the ballot. It's the very bottom."
Solis teaches physical education at Whittier Elementary School, but he and his principal both took a vacation day so they could work the polls and ask voters to back their school district's bond issue. For them, winning this referendum is worth a day of vacation.
"Yes, it is," Solis said. "Yes, it is. I feel it's very important that we can get out here and push this and help out."
His message seems to be getting through. Voters in the Houston area seem ready to borrow billions of dollars for everything from education to fire stations to bike trails. All of the bond issues on the ballot in Houston have won the support of most voters surveyed in a new poll conducted for KHOU 11 News and KUHF-Houston Public Radio.
"They're all doing surprisingly well," said Bob Stein, the Rice University political scientist who conducted the poll. The results dovetail with another survey Stein conducted during the summer for the political action committee campaigning for the HISD school bonds.
The school district bond issue is, by far, the largest item on the ballot, asking voters to approve borrowing $1.9-billion spent mainly on the renovation or reconstruction of dozens of HISD schools. Despite the high price tag, 54 percent of surveyed voters said they favored the school bonds, twice the number – 27 percent - of voters who oppose the issue. Another 18 percent said they didn't know how they would vote. (The numbers don't always add up to 100 percent because some voters refused to answer certain questions.)
The Houston Community College bond issue which asks for authority to borrow $425 million won support from 59 percent of surveyed voters. It was opposed by 21 percent, with another 16 percent saying they were unsure.
As encouraging as those numbers look to supporters of the education bonds, they're dwarfed by the overwhelming support indicated for the City of Houston's bond package. All, but one, of the five Houston bond items on the ballot were favored by more than two-thirds of surveyed voters.
Proposition A, a $144-million public safety proposal that would spend money on renovating and building new police and fire stations, was supported by 58 percent of surveyed voters and opposed by only 21 percent, with 17 percent saying they were unsure.
Proposition B, the biggest ticket item in the city bond package at $166 million, would invest heavily in parks and bike trails, linking the loose network of hike and bike trails around the city. It was supported by 67 percent of surveyed voters and opposed by 27 percent, with only 6 percent saying they were unsure.
Proposition C, a $57 million bond issue that would take care of a laundry list of public improvement projects – from repairs at City Hall to renovating a recycling facility – won the support of 76 percent of voters and was opposed by 17 percent.
Proposition D, a $28 million bond issue for renovating and replacing some city libraries, was supported by 71 percent of surveyed voters and opposed by 23 percent.
Proposition E, which would spend $15 million on destroying blighted buildings and make way for affordable housing, was supported by 66 percent of surveyed voters and opposed by 27 percent.
"Houstonians have always understood that you have to continue to invest in capital projects," said Houston Mayor Annise Parker. "You have to rebuild the city, over and over again."
Opponents of the bond issue, including conservative activists Dave Wilson and Bruce Hotze, have launched direct mail campaigns and printed yard signs. But the polling indicates their message hasn't gained enough traction to defeat any of the issues.
Although all of the bond issues appear to be on track to pass, Stein noticed an interesting pattern. The HISD and community college bonds, which would require tax increases, were favored by a smaller majority of surveyed voters than the City of Houston bonds, which do not require a tax hike.
"The larger the bond and the bigger the tax increase, the lower the level of support," Stein observed.
Interestingly enough, the survey also revealed surprisingly low approval ratings for HISD. About 41 percent of polled voters said they approve of the job HISD is doing, compared to about 42 percent who said they disapproved. That indicates voters who are roughly split on how well HISD is doing its job are nonetheless ready to pass the largest school board bond issue in the state.
