5.0/5 rating (1 votes)
WONDERBOY can be described as a coming-of-age crime drama set in rural Michigan. A young man, Dominick, peddling skunk weed in order to make ends meet, is walking a precarious line. Balancing rudimentary academic obligations with a somewhat perilous line of work, Dominic must reconcile a situation that arises when one of his college instructors becomes indebted to him- and attempts to pass off the financial misgiving in exchange for a passing grade. Unable to play fast and loose with his supplier's money, Dominick is forced to make to make a choice- will he swallow a debt he didn't create and cannot afford? Or will he pressure his teacher- using force as a last resort- to pay up?

Garden design: Part One
By Barbara Wean
A good garden design can make the difference between enjoying your garden or finding that you don't go outside much because it doesn't feel comfortable. Think about the function of your landscape and how well it satisfies your needs. You may need a place for children, adults, wildlife, pets, a vegetable garden and lots of flowers. Maybe you would like an easy maintenance garden that is private and looks great but that you can leave for an extended period.
It's an interesting fact that while one of the American dreams is to own your own home, few people have any background or training to design a comfortable exterior that is usable, not to mention the value to the property that a well designed garden would add.
The typical residential site has a modestly sized home 1,500 to 2,500 square feet, surrounded by a lawn and some shrubs. Maybe a tree or two. Often the garage door is the main emphasis from the front of the home and that is not necessarily an inviting entrance.
The front of the house provides the frame for viewing the picture of the house from the street. A realtor would call this curb appeal. This is the public area for arriving guests and friends as well as service people, such as UPS. This means it needs to be a safe and enjoyable passage from the street to the front door.
So we will start our design series with the front of the house and how to deal with different ideas to improve the entrance. In the coming weeks we'll discuss the backyard and possibilities for different lifestyles. Then what on earth are we going to do with the side yards? I'll give you some ideas here too.
My goal is to help the typical site become more useful for the folks living there (you!) and make sure we cover the basics of arrival, sitting, entertaining, eating, recreating, working or gardening. I'll talk about elements that divide garden spaces such as hardscaping like a patio, or defining space with a hedge or plants. We'll look at overhead space and what we might want to do to define that space. What does it do to a space to have a pergola installed?
We will talk about the arrangement of spaces for plants and then what plants will do well in those places.
We'll talk
about problem soils and what we can do about them.
Next week we'll discuss the front of the home and how to minimize the garage or any undesirable feature. I'll recommend specific ways to make changes that should not be too difficult or expensive for people to do on their own.
And now that spring is here it's time to get started! Your goal this week is to put pencil to paper and write down what you want your outdoor spaces and garden to do for you and your family.
If you have a design and are ready to start planting, start with the "bones," trees, shrubs, lawn and some perennials. Don't forget to add a wonderful shrub like a gorgeous lilac. Later we will talk about flowers, summer bulbs and vegetables.
There are lots of "how to" books on the market both for building decks and other hardscaping and for selecting plants and planting basic. Have fun planning.
Two reference books that are easy to find are: Home Landscaping Northwest Region, Roger Holmes and Don Marshall; and Garden Designs, by Sunset.

SEN Code of Practice
The Code of Practice for special educational needs
The Government issued a new Code of Practice on 1 January 2002. It gives practical guidance to Local Authorities and schools on their duties in special education.
Those with statutory responsibilities under the Education Act "must have regard to" the Code of Practice.
The Code sets out guidance on policies and procedures aimed at enabling pupils with special educational needs to:
- reach their full potential;
- be fully included in their school communities;and
- make a successful transition to adulthood.
The Code explains the way that local authorities are to operate policies and procedures, in line with the legislation covering special educational needs. There is a clear commitment to:
- the right of children with special educational needs to be educated at a mainstream school;
- arranging for parents to be provided with advice and information, and a means of resolving disputes; and
- ensure that schools and nursery education providers inform parents of any special educational provision.
The involvement of parents, pupils and voluntary agencies is seen as essential to the identification of, assessment of, and provision for, children with special educational needs.
The Code of Practice gives guidance to those involved in special education, but it does not tell them what to do in every case. Professional staff involved in assessment and provision are expected to use their judgement as to how best to support children with special educational needs.
In addition, the Guide for Parents and Carers may be particularly helpful.

Kevin Johnson gets high marks for his handling of the Kings mess the last several years. But a few points off...
Kevin Johnson gets high marks for his handling of the Kings mess the last several years. But a few points off...
his press conference today in response to the potential sale and move to Seattle. 1. If it was possible to put a group together to buy the team and keep it in Sacramento, where has this group been? If it really is possible to make a last-second full-court shot, the mayor would have been wise to draw that one up when there was a chance to do something about it. His strategy of waiting out the Maloofs was always risky. Today is why. 2. There may not be a chance to do something about it. For one thing, the Seattle group could close the deal soon, before the Sacramento offer is close to formed. For another, mega-deals like this can include a window of exclusivity. It is possible Hansen-Ballmer stipulated no negotiations with other parties for a certain period of time. Johnson saying he wants to try to make an offer is much different from being able to make an offer. 3. It's not just the previously nonexistent Sacramento group being able to match or beat the reported $500 million from Hansen-Ballmer-Seattle. It's the $500 million plus needing another, oh, $200M to $300M for their share of a new arena in Sacramento. This money is floating around where? 4. Mayor KJ may have very little, if any, inside information on how this is developing. The Maloofs kept him out of the loop when they were closing in on a deal with Anaheim. They certainly would keep him out of the loop now that the relationship has gone really, really bad. When one of Johnson's top advisors (at the time) says dealing with the Maloofs is like dealing with North Korea, with no rebuke from KJ, that pretty much ended any chance for courtesy updates. Bottom line: If Johnson had a new proposal to make, whether on the ownership front or a revised arena plan, he would have made it before the Maloofs made their move. At least let's hope he would have.

Sean to Walk Again!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Sean's Orthopedic Surgeon gave him permission today to "bear weight on his right foot"! So, they are ordering him a boot cast for protection and as soon as that comes in, Sean will be taking his first steps in 18 months....
Now that he will be able to stand, the Prosthetic Doctor can measure him for a prosthesis for his left leg. So, they will be constructing that for him. And hopefully in the next month or so, Sean will be able to walk through our front door.
Of course, we are both so excited today. One phase completed and another beginning. Hopefully, if all works out, he will be able to come home on "Good Friday" and be home for Easter!!!! I think that would be a very appropriate event for Sean to "Rise Up" as well...isn't that interesting????
So, on this day, our gratitude is great! Can there be degrees of gratitude? I don't know how to say it because we are grateful everyday but today is distinguished because there seems to be a completion of one phase and now we are entering another phase of our journey.
Thanking you all for keeping us in your prayers and intentions and intending for our highest good. For certainly, if you have followed this thread, you know of all the miracles that have occurred to get us to here.
I will be posting a separate thread for my friend and employer, Carroll. Thank you all for including her in your prayers and energy work.
So loving all of you,
Deb and Sean

Any business, from a sole proprietorship to a large corporation, can benefit from a well thought out business plan.
And smart thinking to consider taxes as you plan your business. How much you pay in taxes depends entirely on how much income and sales you generate.
Generally, you can estimate taxes based on 15 percent of your business income for employment taxes (like social security). For actual income taxes for your business income, that will depend upon which tax bracket you are in.
Remember, state income taxes may apply as well. I would highly recommend spending a little time and money meeting with a tax professional to get a good estimate of taxes owed. Sole proprietors often get into tax trouble because they do not understand what their tax obligations are.
In this case, an ounce of prevention is worth far more than a pound of cure.
Roni Deutch is known as "The Tax Lady" for a reason: She has two decades of practical experience resolving IRS tax problems and preparing taxes for taxpayers nationwide. Consequently, she has become a well-known media personality and one of the few go-to tax experts in the country. She is the founder and owner of the nation's largest tax resolution law firm, Roni Deutch, A Professional Tax Corp.

See and share Beautiful Nature Photos and amazing photos of interesting places
These Mother Abc poems are examples of Abc poems about Mother. These are the best examples of Mother Abc poems written by international PoetrySoup poets
Judith must be punished for her unborn sins,
and haunted by her unborn fears.
She will beg her powerless mother for that
which the Sun and the Moon cannot give.
A trusting child tells with a momentary stare,
that she cannot wait to live,
Yet she cries and bleeds, pure and aware,
as the ghost of a dying God appears.
The smoke and fog of joy, on the barren hills
of promise fade away to reveal,
A clearing where a Mother and Daughter can
find truth in this awkward chastity.
The young women wearing colourful masks of
bliss and happiness have come to heal,
While the dark and jealous crones paint black
portraits of pain and lay beds of misery.
Their betraying love is not real but mere glass,
that by hand has the face of a jewel.
Their offering of hope and trust mean nothing
as they nail Judith's hands to the stake.
The black vultures of torment, circle,
as the faithful put fires to the fuel.
And her mother's screaming and lone cries
of anguish, leave none innocent in their wake.
Yet her tortured Mother who gave Judith her life,
smiles exquisitely, as they start.
Together they begin their secret flight, that
lifts them high above this tragedy,
As love and hatred both rip and tear,
at the soul like arrows into a dead heart.
In this painful and mysterious world,
there is no greater form of alchemy,
Than the acceptance of clear blue eyes,
the disarming smile of the condemned in fear,
And the tender sounds of assent,
that are being whispered too soft for some to hear.
Judith will be born tonight , leaden hearts will be golden and doubt will
Mommy stopped hugging
And replaced it with hitting
Mommy stopped loving
And replaced it with drinking
Mommy stopped cooking
And replaced it with sex
Mommy stopped being mommy
And I did instead
I was there
On my way to Laflin when the 55th and Garfield bus slowed down.
He should have been passed out from excitement like other 10 year olds playing
football in vacant lots,basketball in streets, and baseball with wooden sticks.
Instead on his way to gas station
collar bone caught bullet like a bleeding brown mitt.
He never made it to first base safe, he never made it home.
I sat there in blue and black CTA seats
and I wished he was struck by a
be-be, paint ball, or tranquilizer gun
but no they simply snatched back cocked metal and released.
He lied there surrounded
face had grazed grass
and when his mother saw him she wished she could resist what purples saw.
cross-fire whiplash
punctured neck
with a certificate to prove his end.
She pawed at his white outline
pleading he would breath life, but when i didn't she wept.
I was restricted to step off bus and on to pavement,
so i had to let my eyes listen
to how blue lights and smudged tears didn't compliment the tragedy.
I mean I was stuck to scene because of the caution tape
and the ambulance
and the way his stretcher jumped as he was being taken to the morgue.
Pedestrians though it was over until they fled like that little boys mother when she
heard her sons blood had been scrambled on the boulevard.
Police mans knees blasted to chest as they chased for blocks ones who failed to
follow: THOU SHALL NOT KILL!
I kept riding past Halsted then on to Racine finally came to Laflin stepped off bus,
looked at the bullet whole in the street sign then asked
what is the purpose of you holding hand high and think u have the right to kill.
Rebecca Johnson
Kylarr when I look at you I see me
I see you grownin up
I see you have my soul
I see you want your Daddy
I see you have my childhood
I see your mother eyes
I see your mother lips
I see you happy when you and my soul bonds together four ever
I see you in my head
I see you is Godchild
Antwan H Woodberry
Mom I promised you I would do my best to help my brothers and sisters pass
life's test to remember how you were before you were laid to rest.
Mom I`m finding it really hard to do, my brothers don`t talk to each other they`re
playing a fool, my sisters can`t stop crying for you.
Mom I fill no matter what I do it`s not right, try finding peace in this family fight only
to find I did nothing by the end of night.
Mom I remember our last talk, you said no matter what you would be by while I
take this walk, mom I need your strength for my life they mock.
Mom I told you I`d be fine, that I was not blind, that at the end of this road peace I
would find,
Mom I fill I`m not the one, all this stress I`m not having fun`m stepping up while
the others run.
Mom I told you I promise, but it`s my family that suffers and it`s them I miss, so I
ask you please help me through this.
Mom I am doing what I said I would, while the others fail to do what they should,
Mom I did the best I could.
Mom,.... how come,.... you chose me to be the one?
As a child, I didn't understand,
The love that fills my mother's hand.
In a childhood world,
Everything is carefree,
Your eyes are wide open,
Yet you do not see.
In a motherhood world,
Things can get pretty insane,
Every day comes with joy and pain.
Teaching your child new things,
Dreaming of what tomorrow brings.
Leaving days of pig tales and nursery rhymes,
Loosing Seconds and minutes of these precious times.
Now, with children of my own,
Mother, your feelings are not alone.
Only now do I understand,
Feeling helpless to times demand.
Mother, I just didn't realize,
How I looked in your eyes.
33 years gone in a whirl,
Yet I know you still see your little girl.
I love you Mother.
More than you know.
I know it was hard letting me go.
My childhood life was wrapped up in you,
But my adult life holds something new.
Growing up so fast and free,
I felt your eyes always watching me,
I didn't have to worry,
Because I knew you'd be there.
Now my own children feel MY stare.
Never knowing that in my heart,
I feel the sadness awaiting their future depart.
For one day, I will have to say good bye,
Just as you did with my sisters and I.
But with this sadness, there is happiness too,
For they will always need me,
Just as I will always need you.
My childhood is over but my need for you will never end,
You are a Mother, Grandmother, Guide and Friend.
Grandma means so much more then what it says in the dictionary.
It should say wise, intelligent, strong women.
Amazing, loving, and very kind hearted women.
The go to girl in times of trouble, get great advise, and just vent for hours.
She will be proud of you as long as you try your best, and she will tell you what direction to go when you fall on you ass.
My grandma is the best, the best in the world. Ill love her forever, then a little more.
I just want to say thank you for all that you have done.
I have loved every part of it. even though sometimes I was wrong.
Happy mothers day, Mamaw.
We need a grandmas day too, so the entire day can be just about you.
I hope you have a good day, full of smiles and happiness.
I Love You, Mamaw and You Are The Bestest.
The world spins around so very fast;
Gone are the days of my past.
When I was young and free;
Nothing ever seemed to get ahold on me.
Then God placed 2 angels in my path;
My love for them covers my life like a hot bath.
Soaking my world in loves eternal flame;
With my 2 angels by my side,
Nothing will ever be the same.
The universe could cease to exist;
But my love for them will always persist.
There is no force that could ever undo;
The power of my love for the 2 of you.
I promise you, it cannot be done;
For nothing could ever come before a
Mothers love for her Daughter and Son.
As life is created from her womb
Bountiful preparation is needed
Charisma, duty, and love
Develop the best care offered
Ecstatic for recording memorabilia
For such experiences occur only once
Given the opportunity to successfully grow
Home redefines as "elsewhere besides the abode"
Ill from separation
Joy still remains in the love connection
Kept in touch through messages of endearment
Life becomes more heartwarming
Mothers nurture endless dreams
*Since Mother's day is nearby, this poem is for all of the caring and devoted mothers out there!:)
Nightly loosing sleep when you screamed,
yet the next day when you smiled, she beamed.
Watching you proudly as you grew,
patiently retrieving objects you threw.
Many times went hungry while you had enough,
'Cause most of the times things were rough.
Sacrificed and sent you to school,
even though sometimes you acted like a fool.
Watching over you when you were sick,
not believing others who thought it was a trick.
Instinctively guiding you to be right,
to restrain yourself and not getting into a fight.
Worried when you were out late,
not knowing that you were with your date.
Defended you in the face of trouble,
also fathering you, acting as double.
Taken for granted repeatedly on mothers' days,
yet, caring enough to mention you when she prays.

PRO COLLECTION {Fall 2012}
Go PRO this Fall with professional cosmetics from LORAC! To get the PRO look, first even out skin tone with Natural Performance Foundation (Model is wearing NP3). Add a long-lasting, velvety-rich glow to the apples of the cheeks with LORAC's PRO Powder Cheek Stain in Coral Crush. Highlight under eyes and on cheekbones with Perfectly Lit Luminizing Powder in Spotlight. For the eyes, always prime the eyelids with Behind The Scenes Eye Primer. Then to create this sultry eye look, Carol used the PRO Palette, using the Nude shade from lash line to brow bone, the Garnet shade on the lid and outer corner, and then defining the eyes with the Black Matte Shadow in the outer corner and crease. For a more dramatic effect, try the shadows wet. To line and define, use LORAC's PRO Cream Eyeliner in Black along the top and bottom lash line. Finish with big, babydoll lashes with LORAC's PRO Mascara. This lengthening and thickening mascara has a jumbo, tapered professional brush to grab even the finest of lashes and those hard to reach lashes in the corner of the eye. For the lips, mix the Vintage & Muse shades together from the Couture Shine Nudes Duo.

Sweet! Daily 4th and 2007 Collection! Thanks NG staff and Users!!!
I started working on this about a month ago, and made a BBS topic for users to submit pictures they felt should be in the flash. I got almost no response, maybe half a dozen pictures. At that point I decided to not bother this year, and stop working on it.
But thanks to a 3-day boredom streak, I managed to revive my hope of making this years Memory Book.
So here it is, another year of Newgrounds memories, about 100 pictures total, all in one flash. Enjoy!
Rated 4 / 5 stars January 1, 2008
This was a great flash. It had alot of great pictures. But the tank sorta got in the way alot, that was annoying. Maybe fix that, and this flash would be pretty awesome.
Rated 4.5 / 5 stars January 1, 2008
Good, but 1 thing
I know you had the "IN UR TANK, UPGRADING UR FEATUREZ :3" pic, but you should have done a before and after thing with the front page, that is, if you had screenshots of the Pre-redesign front page.

Active Dry Yeast vs. RapidRise Yeast
Bread Breakthrough - Kneadlessly Simple Technique
View Printer Friendly Version of This Page
How much dry yeast is in 1/4 ounce envelope?
About 2 1/4 teaspoons.
How should I store yeast?
Store unopened yeast in a cool, dry place, such as a pantry (or refrigerator). Exposure to oxygen, heat or humidity decreases the activity of the yeast. After opening, store in an airtight container in the back of the refrigerator, away from drafts. Use within 3 to 4 months; freezing not recommended.
Can I use expired yeast in my recipe?
For best results, buy and use yeast before the expiration date. Yeast loses its potency as it ages, resulting in longer rising times. Proof yeast to determine whether it is still active.
How do I proof yeast to test for activity?
To proof yeast, add 1 teaspoon sugar to 1/4 cup warm water (100° to 110°F). Stir in 1 envelope yeast (2 1/4 teaspoons); let stand 10 minutes. If the yeast foams to the 1/2 cup mark, it is active and you may use it in your recipe. RapidRise™ yeast loses its fast rising capabilities if dissolved in liquid, and will require two complete rises.
Can RapidRise™ and Bread Machine Yeast be used in Active Dry recipes?
Yes. Simply follow the One-Rise Method detailed on every package. For best results, add undissolved RapidRise or Bread Machine Yeast to dry ingredients first. Add liquids and fat heated to 120°to 130°F. To use the traditional Two-Rise Method, add sugar to water before stirring in Yeast
Can Active Dry Yeast be used in RapidRise recipes?
Yes, but with limitations. The Active Dry has larger granules and it is necessary to dissolve completely for the yeast to work. Therefore, Active Dry works best if dissolved in warm water (100° to 110°F).
What is the difference between Instant Yeast, Bread Machine Yeast and RapidRise Yeast?
Mainly names, but these are all the same yeast! Use interchangeably.
What is the difference between fast-rising yeast (RapidRise/Bread Machine Yeast) and Active Dry Yeast?
RapidRise and Bread Machine Yeast are different strains than Active Dry Yeast. RapidRise and Bread Machine Yeast are grown with a higher level of nutrients and are dried to lower moisture content. The particle size of RapidRise and Bread Machine Yeast are finely granulated to allow complete hydration of the yeast cells during the mixing process. The Active Dry Yeast larger particle size should be dissolved in water to achieve complete hydration prior to adding to the mixer. In addition, RapidRise and Bread Machine Yeast contain ascorbic acid resulting in increased loaf volumes.
How do I use Fresh Active Yeast?
Fresh Active Yeast is the product that Fleischmann's has been manufacturing for over 130 years. It is also traditionally known as compressed or cake yeast. It has not undergone the drying process, so it does not need to be dissolved before use: soften the cake in warm water first OR simply crumble the yeast into dry ingredients (if directed by recipe). Fresh yeast requires two rises. Yeast is available in two different sizes: 0.6 ounces and 2 ounce household cakes
How do I substitute dry yeast for Fresh Active Yeast?
One .6 ounce cake is equivalent to 1 envelope of dry yeast. One 2-ounce cake is equivalent to three envelopes of dry yeast. Follow the directions on the package recommended for the type of yeast you substitute.
Can Active Dry Yeast be used in bread machines?
Bread Machine Yeast is specially formulated for bread machines and recommended by most bread machine manufactures. It is finely granulated to hydrate easily when combined with the flour. Ascorbic acid (vitamin C) is added to promote good loaf volume and structure. Active Dry Yeast may be used but may not yield optimal results.
Can any dough be refrigerated?
Any dough can be refrigerated for a few hours to inhibit rising if the leavening process is interrupted. Long refrigeration is not recommended unless specified in the recipe. For best results, choose recipes specifically formulated for the refrigerator. Refrigerator doughs have more sugar and less salt than regular dough to keep the dough viable in the refrigerator. Refrigerator doughs are particularly good for rich, sweet doughs, as less flour is used. Refrigerator doughs are typically not kneaded. They become stiffer and easier to shape after refrigeration.
Can I freeze my dough?
For best results, use only specially developed freezer dough recipes. Freezer dough recipes are high in yeast and sugar and low in salt. Bread flour is recommended. Other flours do not hold up well. Lean dough, such as pizza, freezes better than rich dough.
How is freezer dough prepared?
After kneading, flatten dough into a disk and wrap airtight, in a freezer-proof plastic bag for up to 4 weeks. When ready to use, thaw at room temperature or in the refrigerator. Once thawed, remove dough from bag; shape, let rise, and bake as directed. To shape before freezing, cover kneaded dough and let rest 20 minutes. Shape as desired and freeze as quickly as possible. Examples of freezer dough recipes in breadworld.com include: Cheese Coffee Cake Freezer Rolls Giant Pecan Sticky Buns Master Bread Dough Master Pizza Dough
Can I rescue dough that does not rise?
Dough can be 'revitalized' with a fresh sample of Active Dry or RapidRise Yeast. Follow these steps: 1. For each envelope of yeast in the recipe, combine in a large, warm bowl: 1/4 cup lukewarm water (100° to 110°F), 1 teaspoon sugar and one envelope (2 1/4 teaspoons) of yeast. Stir to dissolve. 2. With an electric mixer, slowly beat in small (walnut size) pieces of dough until about 1/2 of the dough is mixed into the yeast. 3. With a spoon, stir in the remaining dough. Knead in just enough flour so the dough is not sticky. 4. Let rise, shape and bake as directed in the recipe.
Should recipes be adjusted for high altitudes?
Yes. But there are no exact rules for adjusting yeast breads at high altitudes. Altitude affects the ingredients and the entire breadmaking process. We suggest these general guidelines for baking above 3,000 feet.
Because atmospheric pressure is lower and leavening gases expand more quickly, yeast dough rises 25 to 50 percent faster at high altitudes. Begin checking the dough halfway through the rising time listed in the recipe. Continue to check frequently.
Flour tends to be drier and absorbs more liquid at high altitudes. Therefore, it is very important to store flour in an airtight container.
When mixing the dough, you may need less flour than called for in the recipe. To compensate, add flour slowly and work in only enough to make the dough easy to handle. Because recipes call for varying amounts of flour, there is no standard measurement for reducing flour.
If dough is slightly sticky during kneading, use greased instead of floured hands. This way, you won't knead in too much flour
Dough dries out faster at high altitudes. To prevent drying, grease or lightly oil the exposed part of dough (whether in a bowl, on a board, or in a baking pan) and cover with greased plastic wrap instead of a towel.
Baking temperature and time should not change at high altitudes, but check for browning at the shorter time listed and use traditional doneness tests
Just as dough dries out faster at high altitudes, so does the finished product. Store cooled bread in airtight plastic wrap, bags, or containers.
If you are using a bread machine at high altitude, refer to the manufacturer's instruction book. Since flour may dry out faster at high altitudes, you may need to adjust the ratio of liquid to flour. Experiment by reducing the amount of yeast, flour or sugar (yeast feeds on sugar), and/or adding liquid or a little gluten. Or try a shorter baking cycle, such as rapid bake, if available.

A woman working on a broken-down vehicle was injured when she was hit by a hit-and-run driver Tuesday, on I-17 near Pinnacle Peak Road.
The victim was working on the front of a silver car in the southbound HOV lane of I-17 southbound when a pickup truck crashed into the back, Tuesday about 5 p.m.
The driver of the pickup and its passenger fled the scene on foot into a nearby neighborhood.
"Witnesses to the crash actually chased after them while staying on 911 with us," said DPS officer Carrick Cook.
Police set up a perimeter and apprehended the suspects in an apartment complex called "The Retreat."
The woman, who is in her 40s, was taken to the hospital with severe injuries. It's not known what was the problem that caused the woman to stop her car in the HOV lane.
There's no obvious reason that the suspects fled -- no active warrants -- but it's possible drugs or alcohol were factors in the collision.
Southbound lanes of the I-17 were closed between 5 p.m. and 8:30 p.m.

Serge Spitzer and Ai Weiwei:
May 20 – August 27, 2006
Our image of China is shaped by a mixture of fascination and skepticism – an experimental combination of authority, Taoism and Modernity.
Chinese artist Ai Weiwei (born 1957, lives and works in Beijing) stands for a generation embroiled in upheaval. Likewise, the works of US artist Serge Spitzer (born 1951, lives and works in New York) focus not only on the discovery and investigation of »models of reality« but on the use of everyday materials. On the occasion of the »Humanism in China« exhibition, both artists have for the first time joined forces to create an expansive installation entitled »Ghost Valley coming down the Mountain« (2005 – 2006).
Spread across two rooms, 96 vases have been placed on the floor. Each of them presents a mutually complementary section of one of the most important vases from the Yuan period (1269 – 1368). The vases were made at the original workshop in China, and entail the use of the selfsame materials and techniques as the original. This form of reproduction with its historical, social and economic references to Chinese culture relates these issues to contemporary art discourses on such dualities as copy/original, figuration/abstraction, unique piece/mass item. Fragile and sensitive, they compel the viewer to be cautious, while at the same time constituting a kind of territorial occupation by dint of their grid–like positioning in the rooms.
Opposite this joint project stands Serge Spitzer's»Quiver, Rustle, Tremble, Stir« (2003–2006), a work using the ambiguity of the space. The movements above the glass ceiling of the exhibition space possess neither a clear form nor a clear goal or unequivocal function. Their origin disappears in the milky opacity of the glass; at times, the structure seems almost biological, at others, mechanical. The work points up notions of order and chaos, structures formed by borders and limitations, and the definition of spatial coordinates. The complex world of »ambiguity« is one of the key topics addressed by Serge Spitzer's work.
Like the vases installation, »Quiver, Rustle, Tremble, Stir« seems to be a prototypical model in a communications game, whose sculptural qualities transform the exhibition hall into a field for observation and investigation. Each a unique individual piece, the vases always only reproduce one fragment of the original, but are inter-linked by a DNA-like system – just as the spherical bodies visible in the skylights are reminiscent of molecular structures that constantly realign in new configurations.

MENOMONIE, WI (UWSP) - The UW-Stevens Point men's hockey team moved one step closer to clinching a home playoff series, rolling to an 8-3 win over the Blue Devils of UW-Stout on Thursday evening at the Dunn County Ice Arena.
UW-Stevens Point enters the final weekend of the Northern Collegiate Hockey Association (NCHA) regular series needing a pair of wins and some help to lock down a home series in the final postseason tournament in league history.
Just 1:04 into the game, the host Blue Devils took an early lead, as Matt Millis scored on a fluke bounce of the puck, putting Stout in front 1-0.UWSP responded later in the first, as Garrett Ladd (Fenton, MI)and Evan Dixon (Novi, MI) scored goals in the final minutes of the opening frame to give the Pointers a 2-1 edge after one.
The second period was all Pointers, as Kyle Heck (Plover, WI/SPASH), Andrew Kolb (Toledo, OH/Toledo Catholic), and Kyle Politz (Elko, MN/Apple Valley) all tallied goals to extend the UWSP lead to 5-1 after two.
In the third, Josh Daley scored his seventh goal of the season, giving UWSP the 6-1 advantage.Stout responded with a goal midway through the third but Ladd and Kolb each tallied their second goals of the evening to extend the UWSP lead to 8-2.
A late power play goal by the Blue Devils made the final 8-3.
Six different Pointers scored while Kolb and Dixon each recorded two goals and an assist to help the Pointers complete the three-game season series sweep. Brandon Jaeger (Champlin, MN/Champlin Park) stopped 22 of the 25 shots on net taken by the Blue Devils.UW-Stevens Point (14-9-1, 8-8-1 NCHA) closes out the regular season on Saturday evening, Feb. 9 against St. Norbert College at K.B. Willett Arena.
Face-off for Senior Night is scheduled for 7 p.m. One lucky fan will win a big screen TV.

Threats of protests by Westboro Baptist Church have South Whitehall police planning extra patrols on Sunday.
Folks are "a little ill at ease" said First Baptist Church secretary Kim Nemeth, who learned of the planned protest from police on Tuesday. Officials don't want people to feel inhibited when they come to worship.
Westboro says it is planning to stage protests at four Lehigh Valley churches including the Cathedral of St. Catharine of Siena, according to a press release posted on the group's website.
Diocesan spokesman Matthew Kerr told Patch on Wednesday that he's aware of the protest but offered no further comment.
"Often they don't show. We're hoping that occurs," said South Whitehall Police Lt. John Christman. He and township Manager Jon Hammer met with the pastors at the targeted churches in South Whitehall about the matter on Tuesday.
Do you support the online petition to designate Westboro Baptist a hate group?
If Westboro does picket, authorities will "let them do what they do," Christman said. "Let them have their protest." However police would need to take appropriate action if they block roadways, he said.
Christman said the police department will likely have extra patrol cars and undercover officers on duty. He said he heard counter protests may be planned.
The press release says the protests will target "whorehouses masquerading as churches" and lists the following times and locations:
- 8:30 to 9 a.m.: St Paul's Anglican Church, 2510 Livingston Street
- 9:05 to 9:30 a.m.: Asbury United Methodist Church, 1533 Springhouse Road
- 9:50 to 10 a.m.: Cathedral of St. Catharine, 210 N. 18th Street
- 10:30 to 11 a.m.: First Baptist Church, 1808 N. 19th Street
When asked why First Baptist may have been targeted, Pastor Chuck Reed said, "We're an old Baptist church and I think they assume we're a liberal church."
But, he said, "We're conservative evangelical. We're not liberal at all."
He said Westboro seemed to hit four corners of theology in the churches they are targeting on Sunday -- Baptist, Methodist, Catholic and Anglican.
He said First Baptist Church does not support Westboro's views but is not worried about their visit. "We've been praying for them," Reed said.
"We're a Biblically driven, local evangelical church...and we just love people. We worship God as a community."
Kansas-based Westboro is an independent Baptist church known for its extreme opposition to homosexuality and its protests at military funerals.
An online petition to classify Westboro as a hate group and revoke its federal tax-exempt status has gained close to 74,000 signatures.

CHATTANOOGA, TN (Times Free Press) -- Trooper Gordon Roberts sat behind a pair of Ray-Bans, a steering wheel and about 15 different gauges as he merged onto Interstate 75. He looked out the driver's side window and scanned across the three lanes in front of him, left to right, looking for his first catch of the day."We should be able to nab some people here," he said in an accent forged through a childhood in Rhea County.From the cab of a Tennessee Highway Patrol-owned tractor-trailer, he looked down into cars and minivans and smaller trucks, searching for seat belts that rested unbuckled, fingers that tapped text messages and beer can tabs that popped open.Roberts snaked his way up and down the Chattanooga highways, picked out lawbreakers and relayed the information to other troopers, who chased the drivers down in patrol cars and passed out tickets.Read more from our news partners at the Chattanooga Times Free Press.

LONDON (Reuters) - Glencore Xstrata
Hayward, who has been Glencore Xstrata's interim chairman since Sir John Bond was ousted by shareholders last year, is also chief executive of London-listed oil company Genel Energy Plc
His confirmation as chairman of one of the world's largest mining groups completes Hayward's return to the top of the corporate world after he was forced out of BP
Hayward is expected to eventually step down as chief executive of Genel, the oil and gas explorer he has invested in alongside British-born financier Nat Rothschild, a source close to the matter said.
Genel, which focuses on producing oil in the autonomous Iraqi region of Kurdistan, declined to comment on whether Hayward would leave.
"Tony Hayward is and continues to be CEO of Genel Energy and will continue to do both roles, as he has done successfully for the past 12 months," a Genel spokesman said in a statement.
One media report on Wednesday said Hayward would leave Genel after a successor has been found and a handover period allowed to take place, while another said Hayward was expected to leave within a year.
"If he does end up leaving we would see this as a negative for Genel. Nevertheless the fundamentals of our Genel investment case... remain intact," said Arden Partners analyst Daniel Slater.
After leaving BP, Hayward co-founded Vallares Plc with Rothschild and became chief executive of Genel Energy Plc in 2011 after the merger of Vallares and Turkey's Genel Energy International Limited.
In his permanent role at Glencore Xstrata, Hayward could help the company with new acquisitions in the oil sector.
"Oil seems to be a growing arm of the Glencore business and if they want to push and expand a bit more Tony's expertise can certainly help with that," Investec analyst Marc Elliott said.

A new effort to permanently repeal the estate tax was launched by a group of bipartisan lawmakers last week. Congressmen Kevin Brady (R-Texas) and Mike Ross (D-Ark) were joined by Representatives Kristi Noem (R-S.D.), Dan Boren (D-Okla) and Devin Nunes (R-Calif.) led the effort.
Farmers and ranchers tend to be the most affected by the estate tax. Because the law doesn't differentiate between people and their business, this group is often impacted twice. Farming is a capital intensive business and often business assets are included in a person's estate. Families are frequently forced to sell the majority of assets to pay the International Revenue Service.
Noem believes that the tax hurts family farms and ranches at a terrible time and knows firsthand the aftermath the "death tax" can cause.
"When my own dad died, our family was forced to make the choice to either sell land or take out a loan to pay the tax," she says. "We took out the loan, but that lesson taught me a lot about the reach of government. Death simply should not be a taxable event."
Nunes agrees that estate tax hurts Americans at devastating times and believes it is one of the worst forms of double taxation in our country.
"Money that has already been taxed when a person is alive is taxed again at death," he says.
Ross says many of his constituents have concerns that when they die their business (farms included) will fail because they won't be able to pay the taxes and keep the business operating.
"The death tax is unfair and punishes those Americans who work hard all their lives so they can pass their family business down to the next generation when they die," Ross says.
The estate tax often causes succession to fail and Brady realizes that.
"The death tax is still the No. 1 reason family farms and businesses in America aren't passed down to the next generation. It's the wrong tax at the wrong time and it hurts the wrong people," he says.
Estate Tax Tragedy Can Be Avoided

ATHENS — The NCAA Men's Golf Regional at the UGA Golf Course is underway today and the Bulldogs are feeling good about advancing to the NCAA Championships.
And why shouldn't they? There has been a lot of good karma oozing out of the Bulldogs' clubhouse at the Boyd Golf Center here lately.
University of Georgia golfers or alums have been winning tournaments all over the place for the past year or so, including those played right there off their back porch. Two weeks ago Hudson Swafford holed a bunker shot on the 72nd hole and shot a final-round 62 to win the Stadion Classic Nationwide Tournament at UGA. That came exactly a year after Swafford's teammate Russell Henley won the same event as a UGA senior. Georgia alums Bubba Watson, Harris English, Chris Kirk, Erik Compton and Brendan Todd all have won tournaments in the last year.
So with the Bulldogs playing a regional on their home turf, there has to be some good vibes flowing. Right?
"There are a lot of good things going on, with our alums, with the program," Georgia coach Chris Haack said. "Everybody feels good about the direction these young guys are going. It's just a fun time of year. Championship season is always a fun time."
The challenge for this particular group of Bulldogs is living up to that standard. This is one of Georgia's youngest teams in years, featuring a junior, three sophomores and a freshman. Only junior T.J. Mitchell and sophomore Joey Garber have any NCAA tournament experience.
Mitchell helped get the Bulldogs into the NCAA championships in 2011 and Garber helped Michigan win its regional and finish 10th overall last season before transferring to Georgia this year.
Garber believes the accomplishments of other Bulldogs past and present helps fuel their confidence.
"People expect a lot from us, but we've also shown that we can do it," said Garber, who shot 4-under par for the Wolverines in the NCAAs last year. "Just based on Russell winning last year and Hudson this year, it shows we've got the talent to do it every week in this program."
Of course, nothing is given in golf, and only the top five teams advance. No. 4 seed Georgia is playing host to a talented field, including No. 1 seed Alabama, No. 2 North Florida and No. 3 New Mexico. Also included is defending national champion Augusta State, a nine seed.
"I hate this week probably more than any week in the year," Haack said. "Regionals are always one of those weeks where you have everything to lose and nothing to gain. Because if you make it, all you're doing is moving on really. So I've always been on edge this particular week."

Tennis, Golf, Swimming, Gymnastics have been strong athletic programs at UGA for sometime now. Ladies softball is coming on. Our baseball team just totaly confuses me. How can a state that has such great high school baseball, be so pathetic at it at the next level? Football is back, basketball, with all the turn coat kids coming out of Georgia's highshools it easy to see why the ladies team is fast going down hill and the men's team will never be where it should be, because of all of the ingrates coming out of high school.
I finally figured out Micheal Carvell. He has nothing against Dawg and Tech fans ripping each other and there schools, but as a reporter for the University of Alabama he won't have any of that. Alabama can say anything it wishes about anyone else and he lets their crap float on by. As a fair and equall oppitunity reporter Micheal Carvell you SSSS^^^##K.

Inside Media: Revolution and Rum
Listen to Audio:
Watch video:
Guest: Tom Gjelten
By Maureen Freeman, programs coordinator
Days after the 50th anniversary of Fidel Castro's revolutionary takeover of Cuba, veteran National Public Radio correspondent Tom Gjelten shared an inside look at the island country's turbulent political history and uncertain future.
He explained how the Bacardi family's rum business was interwoven through events in modern Cuban history. The family originally supported the Castro-led revolution but took the business out of Cuba in 1960 when the government seized control of it.
The Bacardi family went "from being Fidel's best friend to being his worst enemy, and they became deeply involved in anti-Castro opposition," Gjelten said.
With Barack Obama's presidency, Cuba will have lived through 10 U.S. administrations under strict Castro rule, where freedom of speech and press are restricted.
"There are independent journalists in Cuba, but they operate under great constraints and difficulty, and they get arrested a lot," Gjelten said. "There really isn't much free debate, free expression in Cuba today."
Gjelten, who has reported extensively from Cuba in recent years, covers national security and international affairs for NPR News from posts in Washington and around the world.
After the program, Gjelten signed copies of his newest book "Bacardi and the Long Fight for Cuba: The Biography of a Cause."
"Inside Media" is produced by the Newseum and is open to all visitors. Seating is on a space-available basis.

An Unknown Vision of Middle-Earth
The Lord of the Rings has, almost from the moment it was published, inspired painters and visual artists of all kinds to depict scenes and characters from the novel and its world. The three volumes appeared over the course of fifteen months, 1954–5; and J. R. R. Tolkien wrote to his publisher in April 1956 that he was being "honoured or pestered by would-be illustrators". In his seminal essay "On Fairy Stories" (1947), he argued against illustrations for stories of the fantasy or fairy-tale kind: "However good in themselves, illustrations do little good to fairy-stories. The radical distinction between all art (including drama) that offers a visible presentation and true literature is that … literature works from mind to mind and is thus more progenitive. It is at once more universal and more poignantly particular".
He did not make an exception for his own work. Indeed, although he was himself an accomplished amateur artist, who had illustrated his own children's book, The Hobbit, and had for his own amusement made a considerable number of pictures based on scenes in The Lord of the Rings, they were not conceived as illustrations. On March 14, 1967, he wrote to his publisher, Rayner Unwin, "As far as an English edition goes, I myself am not at all anxious for The Lord of the Rings to be illustrated by anybody whether a genius or not".
Since Tolkien's death, however, The Lord of the Rings has been illustrated by a number of artists, some of whom have quasi-official status, having been commissioned by Tolkien's publishers, Allen and Unwin and (now) HarperCollins. John Howe, Roger Garland, Ted Nasmith and others have illustrated "Tolkien Calendars". In 1992, for the hundredth anniversary of Tolkien's birth, an edition of the book was published with fifty full-page colour illustrations by Alan Lee. Lee and Howe worked as conceptual designers for Peter Jackson's trilogy of films of The Lord of the Rings, and some version of their (and Jackson's) vision has been stamped on the story, at least for some readers (and certainly for non-readers). Of course, the work of none of these was seen or approved by the author.
Among visual artists whose work Tolkien did see and approve was the English illustrator Pauline Baynes. She painted the two famous vistas – the originals of which Tolkien bought – first used on the slipcase of the scarce three-volume deluxe edition of The Lord of the Rings (1963) and subsequently on the cover of the much-reprinted single-volume paperback edition (1968). In 1970, an accomplished amateur artist, Princess Margrethe (now Queen Margrethe II) of Denmark, sent copies of some of her illustrations to Tolkien, and these were used in the Danish translations of the book (the illustrator's name given as "Ingahild Grathmer"); from 1977 they were also used in the English editions published by the Folio Society. A major body of Tolkien-inspired works that have recently received wider publication are the 140 or so highly stylized images made in 1958–62 by Cor Blok, a Dutch professor of art. Some were exhibited in 1962–3, and from 1965 were used on the covers of the Dutch paperback edition of The Lord of the Rings. In October 2011, a comprehensive collection was published as A Tolkien Tapestry. The Tolkien Library website claims that "Cor Blok is the only artist … Tolkien admired enough to purchase some of his work". This claim overlooks not only Pauline Baynes's two vistas but also an interesting and complex episode in the book's history which has until now not been publicly known.
In May 1968 Tolkien was sent a number of samples of illustrations for The Lord of the Rings by a thirty-five-year-old woman writing from Winchester. Born in London, Mary Fairburn had led a peripatetic life. In the early 1950s, in her teens and early twenties, she studied art and art teaching at the Winchester School of Art, London University, and the Slade. She first worked as an art teacher in London, and in the late 1950s took a job in southwest Iran, teaching art and music to the children of employees of an American oil company. She had converted to Catholicism at the age of eighteen, and after she returned to England from Iran in 1960, she spent a few months as a novice of Les Auxiliaires Féminines Internationales, a lay Catholic order in Belgium. When she was told that she did not have a vocation, she returned to London, and then to Winchester. In 1961, at the age of twenty-eight, she took a job teaching English in Catanzaro in Calabria, and while living there, she entered and won an art competition in nearby Amantea on the Tyrrhenian coast; she used the prize money to leave Italy, and trek via Sicily across Africa. There, on the border of Kenya and Uganda, she met a Frenchman who became her first husband.

This Just In
Conservative Icon Andrew Breitbart Dies, But His Famous Scandals Will Live Forever
Big shocker out of the news community today. Andrew Breitbart has died at just 43 of apparent natural causes. What, you haven't heard of him? Trust me, you've heard of his work -- and not just because he's the guy who called Senator Ted Kennedy a "pile of human excrement" when the liberal lion died.
He was a conservative who helped Arianna Huffington launch The Huffington Post way back when she was still a Republican (remember those days?). And the publisher of six -- count 'em, six -- news sites, including two that bear his name (Breitbart.com and Breitbart.tv), has played a role in the news itself. His networks have produced some huge political stories in recent years, the kind of thing that's brought down Congressmen and major social reform groups alike. So what did he do that affected your life?
1. Took Out ACORN -- The Association of Community Organizations for Reform Now officially folded in 2010 for a variety of reasons, but it was Breitbart's decision to run heavily edited videos made by activist James O'Keefe to damage the organization that turned the national attention toward the activist group.
2. Gave Shirley Sherrod, Georgia State Director of Rural Development for the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA), a major headache on a national scale -- Remember the woman fired by the federal government back in 2010 for video of her making some scandalous statements during an NAACP fundraising dinner ... only to have everyone from the president on down begging her forgiveness when it turned out the videos had been heavily edited and her comments taken out of context? Those edited videos just happened to have been published by Breitbart, landing him in legal hot water when Sherrod later filed a defamation lawsuit -- which is still going through the courts, by the way.
3. Brought down Congressman Anthony Weiner -- When Breitbart's BigGovernment.com first broke the story that the respected Democrat from New York City had Tweeted a photograph of his crotch to a woman who was not his wife, people were taking it with big grains of salt. He was a conservative who wasn't exactly known for being kind to liberals, and Weiner was spinning a good story about a hacker sneaking into his social media account. Only it turned out Breitbart was right all along: the Congressman known for championing women's causes was, in fact, responsible for the crotch shot. It didn't take long before the aptly named Weiner was out of a job.
These are just three of the major moves Breitbart played a role in. I can't say I agreed with him most of the time, but they're certainly evidence that he had a significant effect on American lives. And dying at just 43 is a tragedy any way you spell it.
Were you a Breitbart fan?

Good grief bills, do you not read the articles at all before you post a comment? I didn't agree with much the man said, either and what he did to Shirley Sherrod was down right dispicable, but I don't "jump for joy" at anyone's untimely death. Whoever he was in his public persona, he was a person with a family and loved ones and I am sympathetic to their loss. Maybe you should spend some time examining your own heart.

TorranceMomMarch 1, 2012 at 1:34 PMAndrew Breitbart was a fearless patriot and he will be missed in the conservative community.

Autumnleaves87March 1, 2012 at 1:35 PMI agree with tinypossum completely. Politics aside, its a sad day for his family and children and everyone who loved him. So don't worry... No one will call him "human excrement" as his family mourns for him. His passing hopefully was the end of that hateful, untimely language.

Billsfan, seriously???? Everything you say is a complaint. I do not agree with a lot that he did or said but I would never wish death on him or be jumping up for joy and I am a liberal. I really think that if you have so many issues with the Stir which you obviously do you should just stop reading.

RIP, Andrew Breitbart, and may God bless your widow, your 4 young children, and your other loved ones.
I wish Andrew had expressed himself with more restraint upon Kennedy's death, however, the sad fact is that Mary Jo Kopechne (nor her deceased, heart-broken parents -- she was their only child) had a chance to comment at all.
The "liberal lion" Kennedy left her drowned & dead in a car underwater overnight while he was sleeping off a hangover. The "liberal lion" also distinguished himself years later with the notorious "waitress sandwich" and uncounted more debauched, sexist escapades.
The Left looks up to people like "Uncle Ted", and tears down Andrew Breitbart, a devoted husband and father.

"it was Breitbart's decision to run heavily edited* videos made by activist James O'Keefe to damage the organization that turned the national attention toward the activist group."
And it was Congress's decision to defund ACORN, based on the pioneering work and results of the investigations of Breitbart & O'Keefe.
The House voted 345-75 and the Senate voted 85-11 to strike ACORN funding, saving us taxpayers millions of dollars previously routed to a corrupt organization (unfortunately, it's risen again in other forms w/different names). Both House & Senate at the time were Democrat majority.
Pesky little facts that many on the Left will either ignore or attempt to sweep under the rug.
*"heavily edited" is a subjective analysis. There were hours of video because the sting operation occurred in several different ACORN office locations across the country. The unedited full videos have always been available to the public & can be seen @ O'Keefe's website http://www.projectveritas.com/

Autumnleaves: "No one will call him "human excrement""
It's actually much more vile & disturbing than that, Autumn, and Breitbart never even killed a young girl on the threshold of her life. The Lefty blogosphere & Twitter have been filled all day with such an outpouring of unadulterated hate, it's pretty stunning, even in our currently charged political atmosphere. However, it certainly proves that Andrew was right about the liberal mind-set/way of thinking.
Breitbart knew the Left hates in life just as they hate in death. Even post-mortem, they're still playing right into his hands. Liberals celebrate death, whether it's a culture warrior like Breitbart or abortion. Remember: liberals want conservatives to shut up; conservatives want liberals to keep talking because of the way they reveal themselves & their motives. Today many on the Left made nastier and more hateful comments about Breitbart than they'll ever make about Islamic terrorists, for instance, or a "liberal lion" who left a girl to drown to save his own hide.
As if any more proof of Breitbart's effectiveness is needed, the deranged glee that's being expressed by most of them over his death should be plenty.

"what he did to Shirley Sherrod was down right dispicable"
The mainstream media still gets this story wrong. Contrary to much of the reporting about him today, Breitbart did not falsely represent Shirley Sherrod.
Instead of doing some actual reporting on this, what liberals have done instead is blamed Breitbart for their own rash behavior. The NAACP, which hosted the event at which Sherrod spoke, had the opportunity to read his description of her recanting of racism and also had the actual full tape of her remarks, rushed to condemn Sherrod's initial racism.
Later, it reversed course and began bashing Breitbart. Ditto the Obama Administration which forced her to resign without paying attention to her confession and reversal.

Love You Enough (INOJ x J. Cole x Mansions on the Moon x more…)
Here is a low energy, high chill, r & b, indie, hip hop mashup. I heard the Mansions on the Moon new EP and I knew that I needed to mess around with their music. I love the sounds that are coming this band. So I took their song "Athens" screwed way down to create a nice ambient tune. After adding some vocals from INOJ, J. Cole, and Coldplay the track started to come together quite nicely. Phantogram and Kal Ho Naa Ho add some nice drums to give the track the beat to carry it through.

So instead of speeding it up making it all dancey and stuff, I decided to screw it way down in pitch and tempo. This created a nice ambient feel to the instrumental. Check it out below….

Medaille College Class of 2016 Summer Reading Program
An Online Guide
To help new students make a successful transition to college-level study, Medaille College has selected and purchased Laura Pedersen's book, Buffalo Unbound: A Celebration, for all freshmen to read prior to the Fall 2012 semester.
The key to success at Medaille is being an active, engaged learner. Buffalo Unbound has been chosen to help you begin to engage actively with important ideas and to inspire you as you embark on your college career.
In her book, Pedersen celebrates what is admirable about her hometown community, despite Buffalo's reputation for a struggling economy and even worse weather. She reflects on Buffalo's art, architecture, history and sense of community and contemplates the ways in which the city and its people have made a difference in her life.
With a great sense of humor, Pedersen recalls the ways in which her hometown has thrived regardless of circumstance and by extension how that has contributed to her own success. Evoking courage and sometimes sadness among the humor, Pedersen asks us to think critically about our own stories and the characters involved, so that we, too, can write a future that more fully realizes our potential.
Resource Materials for Reading This Book
Resource Materials: Developing Active Reading Skills
Reading actively means holding an inner dialogue with the author. Pedersen's writing style encourages this dialogue: she wants us to question what she is saying, to compare it to what we already know, and to look deep into our own hearts to make it personally meaningful. Nevertheless, reading actively is a skill that everyone must continually develop, and it involves strategies that are very different from the passive posture that we adopt, for example, when we watch television. The links below provide some resources that will help you enjoy Pedersen's book and develop your active reading skills.

Issues to Consider & Questions for Reflection
Discussion Forum
Issue 1
The Power of Narrative: Stories function in many ways. They can entertain us, they can make us think, and sometimes we use them to go to sleep. Among their many uses, however, it is clear that stories play a vital role in creating our sense of collective and individual identity. In other words, stories shape the way that we think and feel about our world, as well as how we relate to it and to others. Consider, for example, how stories often inspire and encourage us to look at our world in a new and positive way. They may even inspire us take action and make changes for the better. Do you think Pedersen's stories of her community are inspirational? Are they motivating? Below are some questions to help you reflect further on these issues.
1. Why is it important to know and tell the story and history of your community? In what ways does this provide context for taking action?
2. When joining a new community (for college, a career, etc), why is it important to learn that community's story?
3. Pedersen uses short chapters and humor to tell her stories. Is this effective? Does it make the larger story seem more complete?
Issue 2
On Being Unbound: Pedersen's title suggests that being unbound, or being freed, is cause for celebration. Pedersen implies that Buffalo has been bound by its identity as a "rust-belt" city, a negative stereotype that obscures the rich diversity of lived experience in Buffalo. She argues, however, that Buffalo is unbound, to be celebrated, and on the verge of great success. What does she think has contributed to Buffalo's stereotype, and how can Buffalo (or any city) and its people overcome such a stereotype? Below are some questions to help you reflect on this larger one.
1. The things that bind us can also provide a springboard for success. What has seemed binding to you, but turned out to be freeing in the long run?
2. In what ways is Buffalo (or your own hometown) unbound? What might this say about the potential of a place and the people in it?
3. When we are unbound, we are open to new experiences and opportunities. In what ways are students just embarking on their college careers unbound?
Issue 3
Community and Culture: We have all heard the jokes about Buffalo: from the weather to our sports teams, there's no doubt that the city has gotten a bad rap. Yet many people from Buffalo maintain a deep, even fanatical, love of their hometown: Tim Russert, sixteen-year host of Meet the Press and senior Vice President at NBC until his death in 2008 said of growing up in Buffalo, "Although I wasn't entirely aware of it, I was surrounded by beauty and history and the sense of possibility that a great city instills in its residents. " John Rzeznik, lead singer of the Goo Goo Dolls, proclaimed it the "toughest city in America." These are just two examples of successful Buffalonians who join Pederson in celebrating their hometown. Do these "success stories" surprise you? Inspire you? How much of a role do you believe community and culture play in shaping individual success?
1. Pederson's book debunks some of the more damaging and persistent stereotypes about Buffalo to reveal the unbound nature of the city. Were you surprised by what you read? What do you think her book is attempting to teach us about the way we talk about and represent where we come from?
2. There's no doubt that Buffalo has its own unique regional flair. Think about the culture of your own community growing up. How did it shape who you are now?
3. In what ways has where you've come from both bound and freed you?
Final Thought
Why should we celebrate our unbound community?
The instructors were knowledgeable and welcomed class discussions, with
respect for each student's contribution. I've learned how to be a more
effective leader. My capstone class gave insight on how to combine all
the education learned to operate a business. That's when I realized how
much I had sharpened my knowledge.
