WASHINGTON (AP) -- Call it a case of fighting water pollution with pop culture. Back on Monday, the official Twitter account for the Environmental Protection Agency's Office of Water made it appear the government had teamed up with the Kardashian clan to clean the nation's waterways. There was a message about the online game "Kim Kardashian: Hollywood." The video game lets players do important things like appear at red carpets, do photo shoots and other essential acts to help the environment. The EPA says the off-topic tweet was posted by an intern. But before it was pulled down, it drew a joking comment from the account of 88-year-old congressman John Dingell. It asked: What is a Kardashian? The following day Dingell's account indicated the lawmaker now knew what a Kardashian is -- but said that only led to more questions.

LOS ANGELES (AP) -- Michael Douglas had the option of changing the script for the movie "And So It Goes" to avoid uncomfortable parallels with his own life. He chose not to do that. Douglas says his character's son in "And So It Goes" has drug problems, as does his own son, Cameron. He recalls reading the script and shaking his head with a smile. Douglas says he didn't want to change the story because he didn't know what the alternative would be. "And So It Goes" opens Friday.
Michael Douglas says he had an open mind about playing the father whose son has drug problems in "And So It Goes."

BEVERLY HILLS, Calif. (AP) -- No surprise for the legion of "Downton Abbey" fans. The show will return for a fifth season on PBS in January. The public broadcasting outlet is promising that the show "will have some surprises in it" when it returns. But that assumes U.S. viewers won't be creeping across the pond to glean hints about the show from British online posts, because the show airs earlier in England than it does here. Meanwhile the return date for another PBS series is in limbo. PBS chief Paula Kerger says they will have to wait to find out when the mystery "Sherlock" will finish production before a slot can be determined.
SAN DIEGO (AP) -- Fans of X-Men get to enter the mind of Professor X.

Oakley's Nicky Hayden Leading the Charge
Oakley has been involved in Moto GP for many years, dating back to riders such as Mick Doohan and Randy Mamola. And nothing has changed, as we grind forward through the years we have continued the success with an elite field of athletes such as Nicky Hayden, Sete Gibernau, Loris Capirossi, Makoto Tamada, Chris Vermeulen, and Randy DePuniet.
This 2006 season is creeping up on the half way mark and team "O" looks to be in perfect position to capture a long over due title, in this most elite two wheel motor sport known to man. Oakley's Nicky Hayden from the USA is leading the charge as he rocks THUMP 2 on the grid and chooses OIL DRUM™ to cruise the pits. Nicky is one of the youngest in the class and with his focus and strong training program, he looks to be the point man for many years to come.
Team Ducati, which consists of Sete Gibernau and Loris Capirossi, wear multiple styles of the Signature series Oakley Ducati line. For Gibernau and Capirossi, they have both had an up and down season to date. Loris Capirossi was tied with fellow Oakley athlete Hayden for the lead two weeks ago, until an unfortunate crash occurred. The first corner of the race in Spain claimed both Ducati riders and fellow Oakley athlete Randy DuPuniet. All three riders sustained injuries that kept them out of the weekend's race.
This past weekend proved to be another great week for Hayden, as he posted his first win of the 2006 season and extended his points lead to 42 over second place. With this win, Hayden gives Honda their mile stone 200th win in the elite class of Moto GP racing.
The GP series makes it way throughout the world with stops in 16 different countries.
Round 1 – 3/26 – Jerez, Spain
Round 2 – 4/8 – Doha, Qatar
Round 3 – 4/30 – Istanbul, Turkey

anyone familar with Crossfit? the site is www.crossfit.com, i started it a week ago, after doing some research on it, then i actually incorporated some of the excercises to my regular workout. (most people do some of the more common ones usually: deadlift, dips, pullups, etc)
heavy metal music is destroying my brain
I just glanced at it, but it looks like a pretty basic conditioning program. Never a bad idea.
I do think their mantra of 'specialising in not specialising' defines GPP pretty well.
Might be worth a little more time to read more.
Squats work better than supplements.
"You know, if I thought like that, I'd never put more than one plate on the bar for anything, I'd never use bands or chains, I'd never squat to parallel or below, and I'd never let out the slightest grunt when I lift. At some point in your lifting career (assuming you're planning on getting reasonably strong and big), you're going to have to accept that most people think you are some kind of freak." -Sensei

The Daily Item
LEWISBURG — As the 2013 high school football season starts, one of the more underrated performers of the 2012 season steps to the forefront.
Daily Item Offensive and Defensive Player of the Year Brandon Smith rightfully took a lot of the spotlight for the Lewisburg Green Dragons football team that finished 8-3 last year in Jeremy Winn's first season.
But it's a decision Winn made before last season that should help Lewisburg remain among the top Class AA teams in District 4 with Smith and three-fifth of its starting offensive line graduating.
Nick Costagliola quietly put together a pretty impressive debut season for the Green Dragons, completing 54 percent of his passes for 1,347 yards and 13 touchdowns.
Maybe the most important statistic that Costagliola put up last season was his number of interceptions in 11 games — 4.
"We didn't ask him to do too much early. We tried to make the formations and things complicated for the defense, but we made the reads real simple for him," Winn said. "As the season wore on, we put more and more on his shoulders, but I think the biggest thing was we didn't put too much on him right away."
It's a number that Costagliola is quite proud of as well.
"Coach emphasized decision-making as soon as he got here," Costagliola said. "I knew he coached (Blake) Rankin at Bloomsburg and (Danville's) Andrew Shoop) the quarterback at Lafayette. I knew he could teach me stuff I hadn't learned yet."
Winn downplays how much he had to do with Rankin and Shoop's success.
"I didn't make Blake Rankin 6-foot-5 or hand Shoop a great arm," Winn said. "They were both very gifted from before I had the opportunity to work with them."
However, it's those coaching experiences at Danville High and Bloomsburg High, along with a stint on the staff at Bloomsburg University that played a role in win in formulating exactly what he wanted to do with Costagliola to put him in a position to succeed.
"I think I've been fortunate to work with some really good kids. It wasn't necessarily something we did," Winn said. "We've just played to their strengths. I've worked with some great coaches that taught me a lot. I played fullback in college (and) I had to learn to coach quarterbacks."
Costagliola started from the first game of the season, a trip to Towanda. A trip — despite a 20-10 victory — that didn't go quite as planned for the Green Dragons and their young quarterback.
Costagliola struggled in the first half as Smith went down with an injury that caused him to miss most of the game.
"Last year, I went into (the Towanda game) with a lot of nerves," Costagliola said.
"The first couple of series of that game were just so sloppy. We lost Brandon early in the game, there were fumbles, penalties and they lost their best player too," Winn said.
However, that sloppiness and mistake-prone play the Green Dragons showed early in that contest was also one of the biggest learning experiences of Costagliola's young career.
"That game showed me what my role (in the offense) was," Costagliola said. "It really prepared me for the games ahead."
Games like Montoursville during the regular season, where Lewisburg trailed 16-0 before rallying to win in the second half or the playoff game against the Warriors, an eventual 37-33 loss, that Costagliola helped engineer a comeback from a 14-0 deficit.
Now as the 2013 season is just hours from beginning — the Green Dragons host Towanda at 7 p.m. Friday at Christy Mathewson-Memorial Stadium — one would think Costagliola would be a bit nervous becoming the focal point of the offense.
And one would be wrong.
"There is definitely not as much nerves going into the first game (this year), Costagliola said. "There isn't as much pressure with a year under my belt."
Winn isn't surprised at Costagliola's comfort level entering the season.
"He's got a laid-back attitude that's good for him. It drives you up a wall sometimes, but he doesn't get too worked up about anything," Winn said. "I think it also comes down to us being a predominantly running team. He doesn't have to go into a game thinking he has to throw the ball 35 times for us to win. Our running game takes a bit of that pressure away."
But wait. Don't the Green Dragons have to replace 1,461 yards that Smith gained on the ground last season?
"We are certainly going to miss Brandon, but I don't think the drop-off is going to be as big as people think," Costagliola said. "We still have some weapons."
Winn also says to expect some wrinkles this year in Lewisburg's Delaware Wing-T. Long-time Bloomsburg High offensive coordinator Dave Fortunato — the former head coach at Milton High — rejoins Winn on the Lewisburg staff this year.
"It's Nick's second-year in the wing-T. We added some things this year since he's more comfortable," Winn said. "Coach Fortunato joined us this year and added some of his touches. He's going to call all of our protections this year is one of the things."
Now for Winn and Costagliola it's just matter of continuing to get better each week this season.
"Like last year, Nick needs to improve each week and learn from his mistakes," Winn said. "We'll have a successful season on offense if that continues."

By Cindy Allen, Managing Editor
I'm sure those of you who participate in Facebook have seen those chain status requests that make a statement and ask you to repost it in your status if you agree.
I usually ignore those, but one I saw this morning caught my attention, and I did, indeed, post it on my status.
It says this: So, where are all the "Save the Gulf" concerts? Where are the T.V. Benefits with celebrities and musicians giving heart-felt speeches on the poor fisherman, wildlife, beaches, loss of income and sabotaged gulf economy? These people (including our own government) are so quick to help Haiti and other countries...but where are they now?
Its a good point. Hurricane Katrina was a natural disaster of major proportions exacerbated by human failures. In the wake of that event, big-money entertainers and musicians swept into the area. Some have even rebuilt parts of New Orleans.
When a major earthquake struck Haiti, that really got entertainers and musicians out. They've done yeoman's work and are to be applauded for their efforts in helping that country.
This oil spill in the gulf is a man-made disaster that is wreaking havoc on a major portion of our U.S. economy and ecological system. The disaster is affecting four or five states now, and if the oil follows the expected current, will go all the way up the east coast.
In its wake, thousands of fishermen and people who depend on the eco-system and economy of the Gulf and the Coast are left without jobs.
If that doesn't get the far-left, wealthy musicians and entertainers eyes watering, well what about those photos of wildlife drenched in oil? That's enough to break even the steeliest of hearts, and these musicians and entertainers are supposed to be big-hearted folks, aren't they?
In fairness, i did find one benefit organized by New Orleans musicians back in May. And a few more may pop up as this thing goes on. But we're sure not hearing much about help now.
Look, I'm not saying its the responsibility of Hollywood's elite to sweep in with money and try to solve everyone's problems. But, it does beg some thought, doesn't it, that they are so choosy in their philanthropy? It does leave the impression that since this disaster has occurred under their favored president's watch, they don't want to appear to be too concerned. If this had happened under a Republican administration's watch, I think the response from them would be different.
There is another way to look at this. Everyone and every country in the world has looked to the United States to be a philanthropic leader, and our country has been. It is assumed our country has the money, the intellectual knowledge and the power to make all our problems and disasters go away. And, if another country has a disaster, the United States is expected to pony up and give millions or billions to their disaster efforts because, in the past, we have always been able to do so.
In my mind, our lack of ability to first stop this leak and then our sputtered efforts to clean it up is just showing the world we are falling off our leadership pedestal. We're showing the world we're not that special.
That's a message the leftist elite have been espousing for years -- that the United States shouldn't be so arrogant, we shouldn't think we're so special and we should stop trying to encourage everyone else into doing things our way.
Slowly -- and unfortunately surely -- that message is becoming more and more a reality.

July 30, 2014
We haven't had a heat wave this summer yet, but who knows, it might be right around the corner. For that reason and being the middle of the summer, let's take a look at some precautions for your landscape.
So far, so good for your plants outdoors because there is lots of moisture in the soil. However, as we get into the hot times of summer and as that soil moisture evaporates, your plants may show signs of thrust. I always like to see my plant leaves just start to droop -- that's how they are telling me to give them a drink of water.
Some plants, like tomatoes, actually roll up their leaves in an attempt to cut down on the leaf surface area exposed to the sun, thus reducing transpiration. More than likely, when it gets sticky hot, the leaves will curl even if there is a lot of soil moisture. They will unwind when the temperature changes.
Now, consider this, most insects need water to survive. However, when it's hot and dry, that moisture gets short and those pests go looking for anything that has water. That means pests in your landscape will get up close and personal with your succulent plants, for example. Thus, look out for signs of pest damage and apply the appropriate pesticide to control their presence.
Mites seem to be the one pest that can creep up on your plants unnoticed, so look for those tiny thin spider webs and and white stippling on the leaves.

Cy Young started more than 800 games, pitched more than 7,000 innings, and lasted 23 seasons because he never had a sore arm. He was an anatomical marvel, starting at least 40 games eleven times. He finished with more wins, innings pitched, games started, and complete games than any other hurler. Ninety years later he still holds those records. The best pitcher in each league is honored with an award named for him. He threw the first pitch in modern World Series history.
Full Bio
While with Canton in the Tri-State League in 1889, Denton True Young earned his famous nickname, short for "cyclone". The next season the hard throwing right-hander debuted with Cleveland after starting the season with Canton (and throwing a no-hitter with 18 strikeouts). In his first big league start he defeated Cap Anson and the Cubs, allowing just three singles. It was the first of his 511 major league wins.
In 1891 he settled in as the Spiders ace, winning 27 games, the first of his fifteen seasons over the 20-win level. In the 1890s the Spiders were a decent team, but never won a pennant. But this wasn't Young's fault, as he posted records of 36-12, 34-16, 35-10, 28-15, and 25-13. His greatest rival for pitching honors was Kid Nichols, the Boston star. In 1899 the Spiders folded and Young was signed by St. Louis. In 1901 he joined the new American League, quickly becoming the circuit's most effective and best-known pitcher. He won 93 games in his first three seasons in the new league.
In 1901, Young won the pitching triple crown - leading the American League in wins (33), ERA (1.62), and K's (158). He also led the league in shutouts, with five. His 33 wins were 41.8 percent of his team's 79 victories, a post-1900 record that stood unmatched until Steve Carlton won 45.8 percent of the Phillies' 59 wins in 1972.
Young had perhaps his best year in 1903, going 28-9, with a 2.08 ERA in 341 innings. He pitched seven shutouts, completed 34 games, and allowed less than one walk per nine innings. He was equally effective with a bat in his hands, hitting .321 with a home run and 14 RBI. At the end of the season the NL and AL agreed to meet for a series to determine supremacy. Cy's Boston team squared off against the Pittsburgh Pirates. After pitching and losing in Game One (delivering the first World Series pitch – to Ginger Beaumont), Young rebounded with two victories, helping to lead the upstart AL over the older NL.
In 1904 Young produced one of the greatest stretches of pitching in history. In his last April start he blanked Chicago 2-0, allowing two hits. On May 5 he threw a 3-0 perfect game, defeating Rube Waddell and the A's. In his next start he went 15 innings against the Tigers, finally winning 1-0. During that three-game, 33-inning stretch, Young allowed no runs, nine hits, and struck out 23. At one point he hurled 24 consecutive hitless innings.
Young battled nearly every great pitcher from the 1890s to his retirement in 1911. From Nichols to Waddell, to Jack Chesbro, Addie Joss, and Walter Johnson. In 1910, with Cleveland, he won his 500th game. The next July he was released and signed with the Braves, returning to Boston. He won his final game in September, winning 1-0 over the Pirates. Though his arm was still major league quality, his physique was not. Opposing teams were bunting on the overweight veteran, taking advantage of his lack of mobility. Young retired with a 511-316 (.618) record and a 2.63 ERA. Had there been a Cy Young award in his day, he would have carted off many of the trophies.
In 1938, Young was one of the first men elected to the Hall of Fame, in the third class. His records are even more amazing considering he never pitched for powerhouse teams. In his 23 seasons his teams posted a .473 win percentage when he didn't record a decision. His mark for those same teams was .618, more than 30% better!
Immediate Impact
In baseball history, these pitchers had the most wins in their first 100 decisions for their new teams:
Pedro Martinez, Red Sox 78-22, .780 (1998-2002)
Bill Hoffer, Orioles 76-24, .760 (1895-1897)
Cy Young , Red Sox 75-25, .750 (1901-1903)
Whitey Ford, Yankees 74-26, .740 (1950-1956)
Dwight Gooden, Mets 74-26, .740 (1984-1988)
Prior to the 1901 season, Cy Young jumped from the National League to the infant American League. Young complained throughout the season about the AL rule restricting pitchers from warming up between innings but he still led the league with a 1.62 ERA... On July 29, 1903, Cy Young pitched a complete game as Boston lost to the New York Highlanders, 15-14. Boston's Patsy Dougherty hit for the cycle, but Young got little defensive help as Boston made eight errors behind him. New York's Willie Keeler banged out four hits off Young to lead the Highlander offense. Game time: two hours, 10 minutes.

So You Want to Add Value in Your Audits
Recently I got the chance to attend the D23 Expo in Anaheim California. For those who don't know, D23 is a Disney sponsored "community of Disney fans." The D23 Convention is three days of everything Disney — parks, movies, television, games — an immersion for the fan in the history and the future of the company.
Have I mentioned I am a Disney fan?
Here's where things got interesting. By many measures, the weekend was a success. There were huge crowds, including a sell-out on Saturday. That's selling out enough to fill the Anaheim convention center. No small feat; the number I heard, was 30,000 — but that could be way off. All I know is that 1) I enjoyed it immensely and 2) it meant there were a lot of long lines, a lot of people not able to see what they hoped to see, and a long day for everyone.
What I heard on the third day of the three-day event was a lot of complaints. In the ensuing weeks, through blogs and fan sites and word of mouth, I have heard additional complaints. People are complaining about lines, they are complaining about not getting to see what they wanted to see, and they are complaining that it turned into a very long day with fewer rewards than expected. In other words, they are complaining about customer service.
Let's all agree on one thing — few do customer service like Disney. But the other side of that nickel is that no one expects a higher level of customer service than Disney's fans.
And when expectations are high, people complain at a higher level.
So here's an interesting little twist for those of you who think you want to reach out and provide more than control analysis for your clients. Let's assume you want to do more value-add auditing. In fact, you want to show you are part of the team by helping the client better understand customer service issues. Well, when you are doing that audit, be sure you look at the broad picture — not just customer service, but also customer expectations. Because if there is one lesson here, it is that increased customer service leads to increased customer expectations.
Now, I'm willing to bet that Disney will be able to handle this onslaught. But if you are with a company that is not quite up there with Disney (and how many of us actually are) and you are trying to help identify those customer service solutions, then you may want to think about warning your clients at the same time.
You see, customer service is a wonderful thing; in fact, it might be argued it is the only thing. However, it is a two-edged stiletto stealthily slicing the target as well as the hand that wields it. Because, with customer service comes customer expectations. And as the former grows, so does the latter. And, after a while, you may no longer be able to win that customer expectation battle.
And, when that battle is being lost, what role will you be taking?

Click to listen to Lenny Kravitz's 'Stand'
Lenny Kravitz has always been a stylistic chameleon, but it's still a bit surprising to hear a touch of early Elvis Costello in "Stand," the first single from his ninth studio album Black and White America. It's also very refreshing. While Kravitz's vocal phrasing recalls Costello circa Armed Forces and Get Happy!, the music is rooted in the sort of upbeat funk pop that has been a consistent thread through all of his albums. With its easygoing melodies and good time vibe, "Stand" immediately announces itself as one of the most instantly likeable rock tunes of the summer. Black and White America will hit stores on August 30th, but you can stream the song now.

Brian Jones, rhythm guitarist with the Rolling Stones from their inception in 1962 until his departure early last month, is dead. He was 25.
Jones died shortly after being pulled, unconscious, out of the floodlight swimming pool at his home in Hartfield.
Circumstances surrounding the latenight tragedy remain vague, despite testimony by three friends who were near the scene, despite a coroner's inquest, and despite blatantly sensational coverage by the London press.
Jones and his girl friend, 21-year-old Anna Wohlin, were hosting Frank Thorogood, a builder who had been doing repairs on Jones' country home, and another friend, Jenny Lawson, a 22-year-old nurse. Shortly after midnight that night (June 2nd) he was found at the bottom of the pool. Artificial respiration attempts, first by Miss Wohlin, who is also a nurse, and later by ambulance attendants, failed, and Brian Jones was dead by the time a doctor arrived.
First reports on the drowning of the musician left the cause of death unsaid. Later, Miss Wohlin was reported to have told a coroner from nearby East Grinstead that an asthma inhaler was found at the edge of the pool. "Brian used it automatically and particularly when he was in the pool and having difficulties in breathing," she said.
But after more talk with Miss Lawson and Thorogood and a pathologist's report, coroner Angus Sommerville ruled that Jones died as a result of "drowning by immersion in fresh water associated with severe liver disfunction' caused by fatty degeneration and ingestion of alcohol and drugs."
There were traces of pep pills, sleeping tablets and alcohol in his bloodstream, according to the pathologist.
At the inquest, a verdict was recorded that death was caused by "misadventure."
Two days after the death, the Rolling Stones paid tribute to their long-time companion at their free concert in Hyde Park. Before a big crowd of some 250,000, a somber Mick Jagger quoted a piece of poetry in memory of Brian. He read, from Adonais by Shelley:
Peace, peace!
He is not dead, he does not sleep—
He has awakened from the dream of
life —
'Tis we who, lost in stormy visions,
Keep with phantoms an unprofitable strife,
And in mad trance strike with our spirit's knife
Invulnerable nothings.
We decay like corpses in a charnel;
Fear and grief convulse us and
consume us day by day
And cold hopes swarm like worms
within our living clay.
And as the crowd sat silently on Hyde's grassy slopes, the group released 3500 butterflies to flutter over the audience — another gesture and greeting to Brian.
The Rolling Stones, 1963-1969: Behind-the-Scenes Snapshots
The poetic words and subtle, flying colors were soon overwhelmed, however, by the daily press, as they jumped on the coroner's findings and blew them up into National Tattler proportions. Sleeping tablets and pep pills became a "DRUGS SHOCK," in the mind of the Daily Sketch, while the Daily Mirror headlined: Drinks and Drugs Killed Brian Jones.
While Jones' three friends were quoted telling of Brian's "somewhat garbled speech" (after he had taken the sleeping pills) and the amount of spirits consumed that evening, other sources close to Brian told Rolling Stone that other events directly leading up to the "misadventure" were being left untold.
Jones, of course, was the Rolling Stone most often connected to drugs, having been convicted twice on cannabis possession charges — in 1967 and 1968. Both times he received fines and warnings.
If Keith Richards and Mick Jagger were the mind and body of the Rolling Stones, Brian Jones, standing most of the time in the shadows, was clearly the soul.
Brian, in with Keith and Mick from the earliest — when the Stones were still largely an R&B discussion group meeting in a Soho pub — was labeled the quietest, the moodiest of the group. But he was in fact the most vocal to the press, angrily and sharply defending the Stones' then-radical style of music, their appearance, their politics, and their whole style of life.
Jagger was out front on stage, and Richards, the lead guitar, was the man with the music. Jones put himself down as "nothing special." But with his fair, pouting face topped by a full bowl of flaxen blond hair, he was invariably placed in front of the others for group photos [Look at the covers for Big Hits (High Tide and Green Grass), Aftermath, Out of Our Heads, and December's Children]. He was the most hairy, the most dapper, and the most versatile with musical instruments. He was the first to leave the group – months, actually, before the news announcements. He was a Rolling Stone before he joined in 1962, and he led the life of a true Rolling Stone from 1963 to 1969.
Brian Jones was born February 28, 1944 in Cheltenham in Gloucestershire county, 98 miles to the west of London. He had musical, well-to-do parents in this health-spa-dominated, well-to-do-town. But although his mother taught piano and his father dabbled with keyboard instruments, he picked up guitar and harmonica and taught himself And although his parents sent him "to the finest schools," he was a non-conformist from the first grade on, and he was suspended from Cheltenham Grammar School for starting a rebellion against the prefects.
Jones was a fine scholar, excelling in English and music, but he hated sports – "I couldn't stand all that organization," he recalled – and put homework aside so that he could listen to records and the radio. He liked early jazz numbers like "Muskrat Ramble" and "When the Saints Go Marchin' In."

"When the Jews return to Zion, and a comet rips the sky,and the Holy Roman Empire rises,then you and I must die.From the eternal sea He rises,turning armies against either shore, turning Man against his brother.Till Man exists no more.""Here is Wisdom. Let him that hath understanding count the number of the beast: for it is the number of a man; and his number is 666." Lucifer, Beelzebub Satan the dark lord of all that is evil…and horny! we all have a little devil on our shoulder more some than others but never the less he's always there, whether its "oh shall i have that last bit of chocolate" to the flipping and blooming language that comes out of us in traffic jams etc. Without evil, thee would be no good…so be that little horny devil at this years Halloween Party and let us help you look good whilst doing it!
The Devil, Lucifer, Satan, he who walks backwards is believed in many cultures and religions to be the personification of all that is evil a supernatural entity that is the enemy of god and humankind. Lucifer whose name means light bearer, was described as the highest of all angels, the most beautiful of them all, Lucifer not content with his position yearned for more, he wanted to be god himself and take over the the rule of the universe Lucifer rebelled against god and coveted the throne himself and all the worship, a war then broke out in the heavens. Lucifer was beaten along with a third of the angelic host by archangel Michael and was cast out of heaven and down to earth where he became known as Satan which translates as adversary and devil, accuser of the brethren.
The story of the devil or who or what it is differs greatly amongst all religions and cultures being the opposite of all that is good and opposed to god the creator and his creator battling in an eternal struggle for souls in the afterlife to that of a figure of fun an aspect of a mischievous person…as in "oh, you little devil" or "oh you sexy little devil"! We all have a devil...and an angel on our shoulder whisper temptations into our ears!
Probably the most popular films depicting the anti christ and one that many would say if asked is The Omen released in 1976, it was considered by many critics as one of the best films of that year as well as one of the best horror movies ever made. It focuses on the family of an American Diplomat Robert Thorn played by Gregory Peck and his Wife katherine played by Lee Remick, Who lose a child during birth in an hospital in Rome. Unbeknown to his wife Robert is convinced by the hospital chaplain to adopt a child from a mother who coincidentally dies during childbirth, they name the child Damien. mysterious events surround the famiy, animals fear the child, upon nearing a church Damien reacts violently, his nanny hangs her self after saying Damien this is all for you at his with birthday party. Robert is warned by a priest that Damien isn't human but is actually the anti christ after more traumatic and fateful events Robert travels to Rome to investigate Damien's birth. After a while he is led to an ancient Etruscan cemetery where they find a grave containing the remains of a jackal and a child with a shattered skull, it is Damien's mother and the remains that now transpire as that of a murdered child, murdered so that Damien could take its place. Robert later is convinced that the child is bearing a birthmark the mark of Satan, the numbers 666 the anti-christ and must be killed by seven mystical daggers from Megiddo. Upon returning home he finds the numbers 666 on Damien's head and sets out to kill him but is killed in the process by a police officer and the film ends with the funeral of Katherine and Robert with the final shot focusing on Damien smiling menacingly.
Other Great Depictions of the Devil in movies are The Devils advocate in which Al Pacino plays John Milton the devil incarnate working in one of the worlds biggest law firms in Manhattan with Keanu Reeves playing his prodigy Kevin Lomax who later transpires to be the son of John Milton after he raped his mother, Kevin confronts John, who wants Kevin to conceive a child with his sister to conceive a child the anti christ, Kevin rejects and commits suicide and receives absolution from god, giving him a second chance and reverting his life back to his old life…however the Devil appears again but in the form of a reporter who tells Kevin he will be a star, the film ends with the reporter shape shifting into John milton, The Devil. The sexiest Devil to appear on film is definitely Elizabeth Hurley in Bedazzled a comedic take on the dark lord.
Sympathy for the Devil was a great track by The Rolling Stones, the opening track from Beggars Banquet released in 1968, Rolling Stone magazine placed it at #32 in the list of 500 hundred greatest songs of all time, the song also features at the end of Devils Advocate when Al Pacino says at the ends the film "Vanity…definitely my favourite sin". Without a doubt music, especially rock and roll would not be the same without him…him being The Devil, Keith Richards compiled an album of music that inspired him from blues, soul and rhythm and blues classics entitled The Devils Music.
The comedy duo band Tenacious D featuring Jack Black and Kyle Gass with drumming supplied in the studio by Dave Grohl from Nirvana, created a film called Tenacious D and The Pick Of Destiny, a comedy rock opera of sorts, about two slackers who dream of becoming rockstars and find out that all rock legends used the same guitar pick.
A pick crafted from the tooth of Satan for a blacksmith who helped a dark wizard defeat the Devil by weakening by knocking out said tooth. The pick gives the holder supernatural guitar skills…just like Slash from the guns and Roses. The pair find the pick however they are tricked by the Devil played by Dave Grohl, who regains the pick and transforms it back into his tooth becoming complete they are forced to challenge the Devil To a Rock Off of which they lose and the Devil shoots them with a bolt of lightning which bounces back from the duos mother of pearl fret inlays which blows off satins horn weakening him and sending him back to Hell.
Though not actually about the devil, Devil May Cry focuses on the theme of Demons and Demonic powers destroying the world. Devil May Cry is a video game Created by Japanese software giants Capcom, an action adventure released on the Playstation 2 in 2001, The story focuses on Dante, a demon hunter in a fictional setting called Mallet Island where Dante gets his revenge on demons after losing his mother and brother to avenge their death.

SEATTLE – One might think that the talented kids performing in Pacific Northwest Ballet's "Nutcracker" would have enough on their minds. But during their downtime backstage, they found a way to help hospitalized children this holiday season.
For the second year in a row, young dancers took time to knit hats during spare moments. The hats would then be donated to young patients at Seattle Children's.
"We are lucky to be dancing in the Nutcracker, but some kids are sick and have to spend Christmas in the hospital," said 12-year-old Rose, who came up with the idea, along with her 9-year-old sister Catherine.
"I had a friend named Brighton and he got sick, and the medicine made his hair fall out," Catherine said.
Their goal was to make 50 hats this year. But by the time they dropped the hats off at the hospital on Christmas Eve, they had 71 hats. Each one was accompanied by a handwritten note from one of the dancers.
On Thursday morning, some of the hats were delivered to families at the hospital. Yoon Park's daughter, Ava, got a pretty pink one.
"It'll be beautiful when she goes home," Park said.
Ava is nearly six months old and has spent all but two weeks in the hospital because of a rare syndrome and underdeveloped lungs.
"It's really amazing when you go through life thinking that you're dealing with stuff on your own and all of these people come out of the blue," Park said with tears in her eyes. "There are so many people out there that care so much."
Ava will hopefully leave the hospital, with her new hat, in about a week. But she will likely need to return in the future.
"We're hoping that the kids do feel loved and cared about," Catherine said.

In 2001, the Buffalo Ensemble Theatre presented the premiere of Mark Humphrey's play "Mister Benny" in the New Phoenix Theatre. It starred Tim Newell, whose gifts run from top-shelf Shakespearean villainy to the well-placed delivery of chuckle-worthy punch lines, as the late beloved comedian. And audiences ate it up. There was much praise at the time for Newell's performance of the famous funnyman. Contributing reviewer Tony Lewis wrote Newell captured Jack Benny's many trademark looks and gestures.
Now, the Jewish Repertory Theatre, newly ensconced in its home in the Maxine and Robert Seller Theatre in Getzville's Jewish Community Center, is bringing Benny – via Newell – back to life once again. Its production of Humphrey's one-man piece, directed by Jewish Repertory Theatre co-founder Saul Elkin, opens Thursday and runs through March 3.
Tickets are $14 to $36, and more information – delivered by Mister Benny himself – is at 688-4033, Ext. 391, or at www.jewishrepertorytheatre.com.
Here, Elkin discusses his memories of Benny and how Newell "channels" the comedian:

Focus on Software
Last month I looked at the Microsoft way and the ugly specrte of a Linux registry. But we have to live with Microsoft (at least for the near term) for other incompatibilities as well. One of those is in printing. The Microsoft way is for every client to know everything about the printer it will be using, instead of the print server, which, under Microsoft, only queues jobs to the printer but doesn't format them. So what happens if you have to change out the printer (or upgrade to a newer one)? Well, you have to track down those several hundred clients and change each one individually. Linux allows you to do this silliness, if you really want to, with raw printers (no print filter usage). But you don't have to. If all Linux boxes that are print servers do the document formatting from generic postscript files, printing becomes a no-brainer. Just tell Word Perfect, et. al., to use a passthrough postscript driver. Windows systems can use the Apple 1200 postscript driver. Now you can print to any printer in the UNIX/Linux world, to fax machines and even send postscript files to friends to read and print (or turn into PDF files). No need to juggle 600+ printer drivers for all the world's printers on every client. Simplicity beats Microsoft because who needs more headaches?
pam_watch: http://frida.fri.utc.sk/~behan/devel/pam_watch/
Do you need to snoop on terminals? Perhaps show someone from afar how to accomplish a particular task? This utility will allow two users to watch and use the same terminal at one time, even continents apart. When used as a login session, pam_watch creates two pipes, one for input and one for output, that someone (usually root) can attach to. The only downside is that it won't work on ptys (used in X sessions and ssh sessions) or sessions spawned from the terminal. Requires: libpam, libdl, glibc.
multiscan: http://sourceforge.net/projects/multiscan/
I think we all know that nmap is good. But it's not fast, and it's a little heavy. If you need a quick scan of your own network to see which ports are open on which systems, and you need it yesterday, multiscan will tell you. I watched it rip through a Class C private network in no time. Granted, unreachable hosts slowed it down a lot, but reachable hosts showed all open ports at a pace of two hosts per second. That's fast. Requires: glibc.
phpopenmonitor: http://www.edomex.net/phpopenmonitor/
Do you need to be able to check a number of systems for open ports (running services) often and quickly? This utility won't take the place of nmap—you can't search for open ports. But if you list ports you want to be sure are open (or closed) and enter those next to the host name, you can see at a glance if all is well. It's quick and easy to set up and autorefreshes every five minutes (feel free to change that). Requires: web server, php4, web browser (capable of color output).
SQL-Ledger: http://www.sql-ledger.com/
After looking at this particular application, all I can say is Wow! Someone was reading my mind (now that's a scary thought). Take a PostgreSQL server, a little Perl, mix in a web server and all the ingredients for a good accounting program, and you have: SQL-Ledger. Okay, so I haven't checked to see if it's compliant with GAAP (Generally Accepted Accounting Procedures), and it's been years since my last accounting class, but this is good. It still lacks a few details, like POS (point-of-sale), but they're on the to-do list. With a program like this, who needs Quick Books? Requires: PostgreSQL, web server, Perl and Perl modules: DBD-Pg, DBI.
CCC: http://www.noguska.com/ccc/
CCC is not a general accounting program (although it could be used as one with some modifications); it does an excellent job of quantifying work for a computer maintenance shop. You can track jobs, technicians and systems. You can use the information to bill clients. If you need a simple job tracking/invoicing system, this could be what you need. Requires: MySQL, web server with PHP and MySQL support, web browser.
tvguide: www.cherrynebula.net/tvguide.html
Sound and video aren't usually my thing. Okay, so when I'm working on something I might listen to a little Pink Floyd—"Comfortably Numb" is good music to concentrate on a problem with. But I do like to keep an eye on the news, or whatever, something to do while a build (or two) is in progress. With tvguide, I can grab what's on the site quickly, grep it (or just read it) and tune in something interesting on my TV card. Might be a waste of good cycles, but they're often idle anyway. At least I don't miss as many football games. Requires: Perl.
pkgbuild: http://www.linuxsupportline.com/~davin/
If you need to build RPM packages, this little GUI tool can help you. While you still have to know how to build one, this utility makes a good aid. I will warn you that some particular incantations within the spec files are rejected. But if you start with a good template (that pkgbuild likes) you can go easily from there. This tool will not make you an RPM wizard, but it will force you to relook at how you structure your spec files (if you consider that a plus). Requires: libm, libSM, libICE, libXext, libX11, glibc.
sniffer: http://stev.org/
This utility will show you a great deal about what's happening on on your network in terms of the bandwidth you're consuming per minute, etc. You can see stats of TCP, UDP, ARP and other packets. You can switch between different displays. While only root can run it (unless you permit users to open raw sockets), it is a very handy tool. You can also see MAC addresses and a good guess of the Ethernet card brand. Requires: libpthread, libncurses, glibc.
Until next month.
Linux has become a key foundation for supporting today's rapidly growing IT environments. Linux is being used to deploy business applications and databases, trading on its reputation as a low-cost operating environment. For many IT organizations, Linux is a mainstay for deploying Web servers and has evolved from handling basic file, print, and utility workloads to running mission-critical applications and databases, physically, virtually, and in the cloud. As Linux grows in importance in terms of value to the business, managing Linux environments to high standards of service quality — availability, security, and performance — becomes an essential requirement for business success.

HUNTINGTON, W.Va. (WSAZ) -- "Code Red" -- those are two words a school district doesn't want to hear.
It's a worst case scenario that means a heightened safety risk.
At Enslow Middle School, Code Red drills are practiced on average about every three months.
"It's a happy medium," Assistant Principal Lisa Riley said. "We want to keep the fear from them (the students), but we want them to understand exactly why they're doing it; it's for their safety."
During a Code Red drill, teachers black out windows -- even to doors leading to the hallways. They lock the doors, turn off the lights and have the children huddle nearby.
During the code, they also quickly check the hall, grab any random, stray students and text administrators they're safe in classrooms. The classrooms stay in lockdown until the "all clear" is given.
Parents may not realize the county's school district is part of a bigger safety team that meets every month, according to Jedd Flowers, the communications director with Cabell County Schools.
"We work out the plans with West Virginia's Homeland Security office, the TTA and first responders with Cabell County 911," Flowers said. "Every door in every school building is numbered from the outside, and Cabell County's first responders now have maps of the schools' floor plans."
The heightened security is a result of a nationwide awareness after the Columbine School Massacre in Colorado in 1999 and the tragic events of September 11, 2001.
"We live in a world today where we can't control everything, but we do our utmost best to keep them safe," Riley said.

David Knight helped organize three busloads of people who woke up in the middle of the night to make the long journey from Beaver County to Harrisburg in time for a 10 a.m. Second Amendment rally.
While speakers railed and flags and picket signs waved in the air, Knight sat on a concrete ledge at the base of the steps leading up to the Capitol and fumed.
"Pat Toomey is done," he said. "I'd lay money on it."
Knight helped organize the busloads of gun rights advocates through the Beaver County Sportsman's Conservation League, a coalition of 14 clubs. They were among the hundreds of protesters gathered at the event led by Republican Rep. Daryl Metcalfe of Butler County. Butler's House Bill 357 would bar Pennsylvania or its employees from complying with any federal laws that would further restrict gun rights.
Metcalfe's House Bill 357 has 74 cosponsors in a state House that needs 102 votes to pass a bill. Co-sponsors include Republican Reps. Michele Brooks, Greg Lucas and Brad Roae, all of Crawford County, and Dick Stevenson of Mercer County.
Metcalfe's bill took on greater urgency to gun rights advocates as debate in the Senate, led by Pennsylvania Republican Sen. Toomey, focused on a compromise that includes universal background checks on gun purchases. Toomey's compromise was rejected, but the fact that gun control has become a matter of national debate is alarming, protesters and speakers said.
Knight was not the only one to suggest that Toomey will face lasting political blowback for stepping forward as a voice of compromise on gun control.
"I don't like him," said Charles Stockunas, of Darlington in Beaver County.
Republican Sen. Elder Vogel of Lawrence County said that it makes no sense to pass national laws on gun control because the interests and cultures differ across the country. Laws that may be appropriate in New York or California will not work in Pennsylvania, he said.
Knight said that the discussion about background checks are overblown because almost all gun sales in Pennsylvania go through a licensed dealer. Background checks take place in sales conducted by licensed dealers. Only private sales of long guns can be completed without a background check in Pennsylvania.
Stockunas said he is an avid trap shooter and he is worried that the Obama Administration will push to limit gun access. Stockunas pointed to the Boston Marathon bombings. Neither of the alleged terrorists had gone through background checks to obtain their firearms. And the bombs were made out of pressure cookers.
"I didn't even know you could do that (with pressure cookers)," he said.
"Once you get to Harrisburg or Washington, you have to play by their rules," Pat Cody of Beaver County said as he listened to speakers at the rally.
Not everyone at the rally was convinced that Toomey had betrayed his constituents.
Stan Zellers of the Susquehanna Valley Conservatives in Lewisburg said Toomey "was taking a middle of the road path to demonstrate reasonableness. I can't fault him for that."
Zellers said that he is more concerned about what the government does with information obtained through background checks. He was reassured that Toomey's proposal explicitly barred the government from compiling background check information into any kind of database.

In compliance with New York State Practice Law and Rule 4509, the records of library cardholders are confidential. Library records include, but are not limited to:
Patrons have control over their library cards. Presentation of a valid library card will allow the patron whose name appears on the card (or the parent/legal guardian in the case of a minor child) access to information about the current circulation record of that patron. It is understood that a person presenting the library card of a friend or family member has permission to check out items on that card. Patrons who would like another individual to pick up their items on hold must request that a proxy pickup note be placed in the library record of the individual who has permission to pick up. No information from a library record may be given by library staff to a third party.
No information from library records will be released to any person, agency, or organization, except in response to a valid court order, subpoena, or search warrant, properly presented to the library director or the director's representative. Nothing in this policy shall prevent library staff from using library records in the administration of their regular duties or to provide library service to the patron. When no longer needed for administrative purposes, records will be expunged.
