Parson's Son BBQ offers barbecue favorites in Tennessee's oldest town
A friend and I stopped by a gas station in Jonesborough for a terrific barbecue meal on a recent Saturday evening. Yes, you read correctly. The Parson's Son BBQ is located off Jackson Boulevard in Jonesborough in an old gas station. And, yes, they still sell gasoline as part of Uncle Dan's Gashouse.
The location in Tennessee's oldest town is actually an evolution for this eatery, which is owned and operated by Tom and Cheyenne Harwell. According to a story printed on the front of their menu, the couple's first venture into food service was a hot dog cart they operated at a local Lowe's Home Improvement store. Later, they opened and operated a mobile food shack at Advanced Call Center Technologies in Boones Creek.
When they opened their barbecue restaurant in Jonesborough in October 2011, they decided to name their enterprise after Tom's father, a pastor in Alabama who also wrote a weekly article for the local paper under the title "The Country Parson." Naming the restaurant for him — he died in 2007 — was a way of honoring his memory.
The Parson's Son BBQ looks like an authentic rustic barbecue joint you might see in any small town of the South. The two dining rooms are painted yellow with white trim, and the concrete floors are painted red. The exterior of the restaurant is painted beige with red trim, including a red picket fence. There are some chairs and benches on the front porch area near the entrance to the restaurant.
Customers order at the front counter upon entering the eatery. After placing orders, customers are free to choose to sit at one of the eatery's tables or picnic bench. They can also pick up their orders once they're prepared at a counter near the front of the restaurant. There are windows into the kitchen area, which lets diners monitor the progress of the preparation of their meals. There's also a television set in one corner of the dining area.
The menu focuses on barbecue sandwiches and platters, as well as ribs and chicken. The eatery also offers some other sandwiches, Tex-Mex items such as nachos and pork tacos, as well as Soup Beans and Cornbread and Red Beans and Rice. The restaurant also offers some salads, including a Pork Topper Salad, Chef Salad and a Side Salad.
On Saturday evenings, the restaurant offers all-you-can-eat barbecue pork spareribs after 5 p.m. This special comes with three sides, bread and butter and all the ribs you care to eat.
My friend decided this was too good a deal to pass up. I considered some of the other options, including a Beef Brisket Platter, the Smoked Chicken Quarter Dinner and The Beast, which is a fourth-of-a-pound hot dog covered with pulled pork, baked beans, cole slaw and shredded cheese, all served on a large hot dog bun.
I decided to order a sampler platter, which came with pulled pork, smoked chicken and two sides.
The sides available include Potato Salad, Potato Chips, Mac and Cheese, Cole Slaw, Sour Slaw, Baked Beans, Red Beans and Rice and Soup Beans. On Thursdays, the restaurant also offers "Spud Day" featuring huge baked potatoes. Friday and Saturday evenings, the restaurant also offers huge Twice-Baked Potatoes.
I paired my meal with Mac and Cheese, as well as Soup Beans with chopped onions. My friend accompanied his meal with Baked Beans, Potato Salad and Cole Slaw.
Food is served on disposable plates with plastic utensils. The platters were garnished with sweet pickle chips and served with a small loaf of dark bread and butter. The bread seemed a novel addition to the meal, but I really liked it.
Diners add their own sauces to the meat. The options include Alabama White Sauce, Southern Belle, Georgia Peach, North Carolina Tang, Tennessee Summer, Lucifer's Revenge and Satan's Fury.
I liked Tennessee Summer, which is described as a spicy tomato-based sauce with intense flavors. I also liked the Lucifer's Revenge, an even more intense version of Tennessee Summer.
I also appreciated the subtler sauces, including Georgia Peach, which is made with peaches and black pepper, as well as the Southern Belle, a dark red, thick sauce.
My friend enjoyed the ribs and requested three servings before getting his fill. Ribs are served in 8-ounce portions at a time for the all-you-can-eat special. The meat came away from the bone just beautifully. With a generous splash of the Southern Belle sauce, these tender, smoky ribs tasted great.
I also liked the pulled pork barbecue and smoked chicken, although I added some of the more intense sauces to these meats. I also made liberal use of the North Carolina Tang, a vinegar-based sauce.
Most of the sides were also a hit, including the Baked Beans and Soup Beans. The Baked Beans featured a dark, sweet flavor and were enhanced with an ample addition of smoky barbecued meat. The Soup Beans were also well-seasoned and tasted good with the strong white onions. The Cole Slaw, made with both green and purple cabbage, was a refreshing side item, as was the hearty mustard-based Potato Salad. I felt the Mac and Cheese fell just a little short of the mark. The al dente pasta used didn't quite combine with the cheese sauce for the creamy, comfort-food nature I usually expect from this dish.
For dessert, we each indulged with a large, rich Brownie. The eatery also offers a Chocolate Chip Square, as well as a Fudge Monster, which begins with either the Brownie or Chocolate Chip Square, to which a topping of ice cream, chocolate syrup and whipped cream are added. The Brownies offered a wonderfully sweet conclusion to our visit.
If the whole family enjoys barbecue, you might want to try some of the restaurant's "For the Whole Table" deals. The Family Feast Sampler, creatively served in a trash can lid, offers ribs, pulled pork, pulled chicken, sliced brisket, four large sides and bread and butter. The Whole Hog Rib Sampler provides a whole strip of ribs, four large sides and bread and butter.
There's also a menu for the kids, as well as other "Grab It and Go" combination meals. We were certainly impressed on our first visit and have even discussed returning with some friends for future visits. If you go, do let them know they were recommended.
AT A GLANCE: The Parson's Son BBQ, 101 West Jackson Blvd., Jonesborough. 753-5757. Monday-Thursday, 10:30 a.m.-7:30 p.m.; Friday: 10:30 a.m.-9 p.m.; and Saturday, 11 a.m.-9 p.m. Most menu items $15.99 and under. Credit cards accepted. Carryout available. Catering available.

Rethink – Upon leaving Las Vegas, Nevada I stopped by a well known Arizonian restaurant, Red Lobster. I have previously eaten there and based upon the merits of the one in my hometown I decided to stop and eat, expecting the same taste and great customer service; and that is not exactly what I acquired. Searching the menu I achieved my goal of finding something delicious that fulfilled the demands of my stomach. I inquired about the Red Lobster and soon the fragrance of the meal reached my nose and it sat in front of me, waiting to be devoured. However, before consuming, I studied the meal that I had thought over, the meal that I thought would fill me up. The pizza was plated normally, eight slices that formed a perfect circle. Partially incinerated pieces that formed the crust did not bother me in the least for it provided me with the crunch I wanted. I looked on, discovering the things that were mentioned on the menu "thin-crust pizza topped with langostino lobster meat, melted mozzarella cheese, fresh tomatoes and sweet basil". It was the amount and choice of ingredients that intrigued me the most. But was it worth it? Was the meal actually going to impress me? I began. My primary bites provided me with this information. Although, I hate thin crust the pizza provided me with a golden brown, toasted taste and gave me a chip like crunch. The ingredients tasted fresh. For example the tomatoes were juicy and tasted as though they were recently cut. Juicy definitely places a word on how it tasted. Although it was juicy, the ingredients were too balanced, creating a cancellation affect. Despite all of the spices placed into the dish it tasted like water, it had no one dominate flavor. To add to the horror of this concept I had ordered water to drink, to allow my taste buds to feel and taste the full affect of the food. It was as though I was eating and drinking water. In reviewing meals I hate to give a negative outlooks, but the Lobster Pizza, although cheaply priced at $9.50 is not worth a single dime. To provide advice, I deeply ask patrons to reconsider ordering this dish.

You may start noticing some changes to the order in which listings are displayed in the sort and search results on HomeAway.com and VRBO.com. As of today, we have made these changes to the way we display search results based on direct traveler feedback on what is most appealing to them when searching for a vacation rental.
Please watch a short video we have put together which highlights some of the specific feedback we received from travelers about listing quality, and why it is so important:
The placement of your listing in search results first depends on your subscription level. Within each subscription level, listing quality is the most important factor that determines your search position within those results. Based on feedback, we know the most important factors families and groups look for when renting a property include high quality photos, reviews from past guests, quotable rates, online booking capabilities, online payments acceptance, updated calendars, an accurate map pin placement and your listing's tenure.
The Listing Quality Scorecard within your owner dashboard is a quick and easy tool that provides recommendations for how you can improve the quality of your listings and your position within search results. For example, if you accept online payments and provide quotable rates, provide 24 photos, etc. You can learn more about the Listing Quality Scorecard from this previous blog from our Product Marketing Team: http://community.homeaway.com/groups/product-updates/blog/2013/10/02/new-listing-scorecard--more-insight-to-improve-your-listing.
If you have noticed a change in your search position, we recommend you go to the Listing Quality Scorecard in your dashboard and follow the customized recommendations. Improving your listing quality scores can improve your search position. You can also visit the Listing Quality portion of the HomeAway Owner Toolkit for a step-by-step instruction on how to improve your listing: http://www.homeaway.com/info/owner-toolkit/listing-quality.
Our goals align the desires of our travelers to ensure our sites have the highest quality listings possible—and bring as many travelers to your vacation rental as possible. Now more than ever, your listing quality will have a significant impact on where your listing falls in the sort order.
We want to help you get the most out of the valuable time you commit to the marketing and management of your vacation rental. It is with this in mind that we hope to continue to work with you closely to determine how best to keep your properties filled with guests!
Thank you,
Brian Sharples
Co-founder & CEO

Registry of Patient Registries (RoPR)
The Registry of Patient Registries (RoPR) launched on December 1, 2012. Due to contract transition, the Web site is temporarily unavailable until approximately January 2014.
For more information, please see the following resources:
- About RoPR: This web page provides additional information about the RoPR system.
- How to List a Registry in the RoPR: This web page provides step-by-step instructions for listing a registry in the RoPR system.
- Frequently Asked Questions: This web page answers some common questions about the RoPR.
- Public Search: This web page provides the ability to search for registries within the RoPR.
Topic Abstract
Background: A patient registry is an organized system that uses observational research methods to collect data for the scientific assessment of patient outcomes. Patient registries are an important tool for clinical research, but currently there is no central database designed specifically to list patient registries. ClinicalTrials.gov is a database and public website that provides information about research studies, but it is designed primarily for providing information about experimental studies, such as randomized drug trials, rather than observational studies, such as patient registries. Not all data fields in ClinicalTrials.gov are applicable or relevant to patient registries, and some data that would be useful for describing registries are not collected. A database and searchable public website that is designed specifically to provide information about patient registries would support research collaborations, reduce redundancies, encourage the efficient use of resources, and improve transparency in observational clinical research.
Objectives: The primary goal of this project is to engage stakeholders in the design and development of a Registry of Patient Registries (RoPR) database system that is compatible with ClinicalTrials.gov and meets the following objectives: 1) provides a searchable database of existing patient registries in the United States; 2) facilitates the use of common data fields and definitions in similar health conditions to improve opportunities for sharing, comparing, and linkage; 3) provides a public repository of searchable summary results, including results from registries that have not yet been published in the peer-reviewed literature; 4) offers a search tool to locate existing data that researchers can request for use in new studies; and 5) serves as a recruitment tool for researchers and patients interested in participating in patient registries.
This project also includes four secondary objectives designed to support the efficient use of high-quality registries for clinical research. First, the project will develop a framework for collating and characterizing the outcome measures used in patient registries. The initial goal of the framework is to characterize the types of outcome measures that are currently used in patient registries, while the long-term objective is to support efforts to standardize outcome measures and to facilitate access to that information. Currently, there is significant variation in definitions across registries. Standardization would enable registry data to be compared and potentially linked to data from other registries. Second, registries that have expired (i.e., stopped collecting new data) may still contain useful data to inform the development of new studies or to support linkage projects with other data sources. A data archive for expired registries could encourage the efficient use of resources by making data from closed registries available for use in new studies. This project will engage stakeholders in assessing the feasibility and potential value of creating a voluntary data repository for expired registries. Third, the AHRQ publication, "Registries for Evaluating Patient Outcomes: A User's Guide: 2nd Edition" provides practical information on the design, operation, analysis, and evaluation of patient registries. This project will expand the User's Guide to address 11 new topics in registry methodology and update the existing chapters to cover new legislation and other changes in registry science. Finally, the project will examine approaches for supporting ongoing stakeholder dialogue on registry best practices and emerging issues. In particular, the project will engage stakeholders in exploring whether a Web-based forum on registries would encourage useful discussion, sharing of best practices, and debate on new challenges.
Expected Outputs and Opportunities for Public Review: There will be approximately five reports from this project. Multiple draft documents from this project will be posted for public review and comment. The documents and expected review timeframes are (updated Dec 2012):
- Draft of the white paper report on the feasibility of and potential strategies for a voluntary data repository for expired registries – FINAL COMPLETED (http://effectivehealthcare.ahrq.gov/search-for-guides-reviews-and-reports/?pageaction=displayproduct&productID=1306)
- Registry of Patient Registries (RoPR) Draft Use Cases, Policies and Procedures, and Data Elements – FINAL COMPLETED (http://effectivehealthcare.ahrq.gov/search-for-guides-reviews-and-reports/?pageaction=displayproduct&productID=1115)
- Draft framework for listing standard outcome measures used in patient registries – FINAL IN PROGRESS
- Draft of the third edition of the "Registries for Evaluating Patient Outcomes: A User's Guide" document, including 11 new chapters and updates to the second edition chapter – Quarter 4, 2012.
- Draft of the white paper on a Web-based forum for registry discussions – Quarter 4, 2012.

By: Rich Funke
With Rich retiring next month, News10NBC is looking back at some of the people and events he covered over his 42-years in broadcasting. Buffalo's team is Rochester's pro football team too. Rich covered the Bills for more than 30 years.
The Ralph opened the year Rich began covering the Bills. O.J. Simpson rushed for 2,000 yards in 1973 and nobody since has been as electrifying as "The Juice". He couldn't have been nicer and his arrest was a shock to those who covered him.
Joe Ferguson was one of the few quarterbacks to start right out of college. Rich remembered the playoff game against the Chargers in 1980 when he played the whole game on a sprained ankle. Chuck Knox told Rich, Fergy's only fault was not having "touch" on the long ball.
Knox was a savior of sorts when he coached the Bills to their first win over Miami in 11 years and won the division. He did a weekly TV segment with News10NBC and actually made predictions. Can you imagine an NFL coach doing that today?
In 1983, the Bills picked Jim Kelly, who picked the USFL instead, and Bills fans wore bags on their heads through two 2-14 seasons. The USFL's demise, triggered Buffalo's rise. Kelly arrived in Buffalo in 1986.
But the Jets were ready when Jim made his debut. The Bills went 4-12 his first season. He was brash, and pointed fingers in those days. Remember the bickering bills in 1989 when Ronnie Harmon dropped that game winning touchdown in the playoffs at Cleveland? But Bill Polian and Marv Levy put the pieces together with Andre, Thurman, and Bruce. And the clincher was trusting Kelly to run the "new" high energy k-gun offense which powered the Bills to their first Super Bowl. But the most feared offense in the NFL misfired when it mattered most in the final two minutes of Super Bowl 25. 47 yards to win a title that's no chip shot for any kicker. Rich won't forget Scott Norwood's class after that heartbreaking loss or the way Bills fans embraced him when he got home.
That string of Super Bowl runs also produced the great wild card comeback against Houston, engineered by Frank Reich. It wasn't televised and people left before it was over. News10NBC produced a special to show them what they missed.
Who can forget the Flutie-Johnson era? Ralph Wilson once confided to Rich that he thought Rob Johnson had the hardware, but not the software. Flutie had the fans. In 1999, he led the Bills to the playoffs before Wade Phillips or Wilson made the shocking decision to start Johnson at Tennessee.
Still, the Bills were leading and kicking off with just 16 seconds left. Rich left the press box and headed for the field and when he reached the bottom of the stairwell, Titans' fans were going nuts. Richhad completely missed the Music City miracle.
Drew Bledsoe gave the Bills new hope, and set ten passing records his first season. Three non playoff years later when Rich asked him if he'd accept a backup role, to that new young quarterback, he motioned to JP Losman's locker, and said "Not to him."
Coaches and quarterbacks have come and gone since the glory day and they still need a franchise quarterback. Ownership hasn't changed. But Rich doesn't agree with those who consider Ralph Wilson a penny pincher. Maybe he should have spent more on head coaches, but he's spent plenty on players. His only fault? His old school loyalty to the scouts and general managers who have let him down. But his loyalty also extends to the City of Buffalo. Art Modell he was "not". Bills fans can only hope the next owner will feel similar loyalty.

Shock over hit and run of 5-year-old Oswaldtwistle boy
5:00pm Monday 9th December 2013 in News
THE dad of a five-year-old boy who suffered severe leg injuries in a hit-and-run accident has spoken of his anger that the driver has not come forward.
Dean Marsden, 36, his son Jamie, and their puppy, were halfway across a pedestrian crossing in Union Road, Oswaldtwistle, when the traffic lights changed to amber and the driver of a dark-coloured BMW sped forwards, hitting Jamie.
The youngster, of Haworth Street, was taken to Royal Blackburn Hospital where he had emergency surgery, and will undergo another operation to try to close a large gash on his leg.
Jamie will need plastic surgery and skin grafts if the wound cannot be closed.
Mr Marsden, a production supervisor, said he could not understand how the driver could have driven off.
He said: "I saw a little girl in the back of the car. You can understand somebody being in shock, but he hasn't even been to the police to tell them what happened.
"I was face on with him when he hit Jamie. Jamie was underneath the car bumper. For a split second I thought he was going to drive over him so I got the bag of sugar we'd got from the shop and chucked it at his car window.
"Then I grabbed my lad and took him into a barbers and got them to call an ambulance.
"Jamie was in shock. He just said, 'Why's that car hit me, daddy?' It was a total shock, the scare of my life. We're just keeping our fingers crossed they will be able to close his leg."
Police are appealing for witnesses to the incident, which happened on Thursday around 6.30pm.
The driver is believed to be Asian and the BMW is thought to have an 02 registration plate.
PC Kate Brady, from the Road Policing Unit, said: "I would appeal directly to the driver to contact the police so we can establish the full circumstances of exactly what happened." Anyone with information should call police on 101, or Crimestoppers anonymously on 0800 555 111.

Much as we may wish it, the driver will not have the book thrown at them, come up with some farcically lame excuse, plead the need to keep their licence and not be jailed, for what is a terrible crime, that is only compounded by their unwillingness to come forwards.
As ever in these cases, someone knows whom this person is but will do the usual thing of closing ranks, as the victim was not one of their own. This is another nail in the coffin of racial harmony and integration.
Let's hope the little lad makes a full recovery before Christmas.

If it was a police officers child or a footballers child they would of found that driver by now. But because that poor little lad is just a member of the publics child the driver may never be traced. Children are told at school to always use a crossing to cross safely?? This young lad was in the right. If u go through a red light you get a ticket! If u go through on amber and run a child over u get away with it. Makes me sick. Too many criminals are getting away with way too much dont give them a caution or a tag or a slap on the wrist get them strung up and starve them and give them what they deserve they would never do it again. Dont protect the criminals protect us and sort theese scum out.
What's that? You have no evidence at all and you just made it up?

NewsPress Release: 5/01/02
MARLBORO, VT -- With about 70 guests gathered at the Marlboro College Technology Center in Brattleboro, including Lt. Governor Doug Racine, a woman's a cappella group just back from China, and a smattering of other Marlboro College students, faculty and staff among the Brattleboro friends of the College, Marlboro College President Paul LeBlanc announced the kick-off of the College's Windham County endowment campaign.
"It's kind of funny to announce a $28 million campaign when you've already raised over $25 million," said LeBlanc, "but that's how it works in academe."
The campaign has been in progress, quietly, for almost two years, LeBlanc explained. An extraordinary $10 million endowment gift, combined with another $2 million to build a new wing onto the college¹s library, started the drive off in dramatic fashion. Since then the college's board of trustees, leadership donors, and a number of important foundation grants have brought the total to over $25 million.
Lt. Governor Racine started the proceedings with an overview of the importance of Vermont¹s independent colleges and universities to the state and region. He mentioned he had recently joined a college counselor tour of Vermont colleges, which he was finding informative and inspiring. He also remarked on the importance of Marlboro College¹s Windham Community Scholarship Fund, that provides financial aid for Marlboro's Vermont students and upon which the Windham County campaign is built.
LeBlanc focused his remarks on the number of Vermont students at Marlboro College, and the scholarship programs the college uses to support them. He noted that whereas 81 percent of all Marlboro students receive financial aid, 97 percent of the college¹s Vermont students receive aid. On average, he said, 20 percent of Marlboro¹s student body consists of Vermonters, defined as any student who was eligible to attend public high school in the state. Over the past five years, he noted, the college has awarded $1.6 million to 263 Vermont students attending Marlboro College.
³The campaign in Windham County and Brattleboro is concentrating on increasing financial aid for our Vermont students,² LeBlanc explained. ³Over the past decade the local friends of the college have contributed well over $300,000 to support these students. They also established, through those hundreds and hundreds of gifts, one endowed scholarship that we award each year to a single deserving Vermont student.²
The Windham Community Scholarship was awarded for the first time at last year¹s commencement to Amos Worth, a senior from Windsor, studying philosophy.
Marlboro currently has ten endowed scholarships, two others of which are restricted to students from Windham County. Each named, endowed scholarship is funded with at least $50,000. Awards are funded with the money the funds earn.
³The goal of the Windham County campaign is to establish at least one more endowed Windham Community Scholarship,² said LeBlanc. ³That means over the next year we need to raise at least $50,000 in Windham County and Vermont. I¹m sure we can do that, and more.²
The kick-off event concluded with two songs sung by a student a cappella group, the Quintessentials, who just days before had returned from China.

CAPTAIN COOKPosted by admin on Sunday Mar 23, 2014 Under Travel
James Cook was born in the village of Martin, near Middlesbrough, in October 1728, the son of an agricultural worker. He went to school in Great Ayton, where his father had built a cott e for his family. The boy was apprenticed, at the age of only 12, to a haberdasher at Staithes, but r away to join a ship-owner at Whitby, in the attic of whose house he slept and studied, boarding ship as a collier's apprentice.
After a few years he joined the Royal Navy, and at 30 years of age was made master of a sloop. He spent a few years in Canada, charting the St Lawrence River and surveying the coast of Newfoundland. The quality of his work drew the young man to the attention of the Royal Society, and in 1768 he set sail with a lieutenant's commission, in command of the ship Endeavour, to take scientists to the Pacific to observe the transit of Venus.
After completing this object on the island of Tahiti, Cook sailed in search of the continent which had long been rumoured to exist in the southern ocean, plan visiting this amazing place by checking at hotel comparison sites. He circumnavigated New Zealand and surveyed the east coast of Australia before returning home.
There is a story that Mary Prowd, the old housekeeper who had once fussed over the slip of a boy at Whitby, was warned that he was now an officer of some distinction, deserving respect, but she could not resist greeting him as "James, honey."
Promoted to captain, Cook soon set off again with two ships, the Resolution and the Adventure, in further quest of the great southern continent, sailing around the fringes .f the icy Antarctic as well as discovering several islands in the Pacific. The voyage took Cook an. his men farther south than any human had been before, and disposed of the myth of the southern co tinent. See the adventure of Europe with one one clik at Europe Cities best website.
A young native of the Society Islands, which Cook named in honour of the Royal Soc ety, was brought home to England where he was received by King George III and painted by S r Joshua Reynolds. This "noble savage" was named Omai, and when he returned to his nativ- country Captain Cook ensured that he was granted some land by his chief.
Cook was always as caring about the natives he encountered as he was about the well-be g of his crews. Remarkably, only one of his men succumbed to scurvy, the scourge of sailors at he time, during his three-year voyage — an unprecedented achievement due entirely to Cook's cons ientious attention to a diet rich in vitamin C, chiefly pickled cabbage.
Cook wrote of the natives of Tahiti, check here too, that they were "far happier than we Europeans" bec use they were uncorrupted by the pressures of civilisation. "They live in Tranquillity which is not i isturbed by the Inequality of Condition." It is a sad irony that it was at the hands of a native of the awaiian islands that Captain Cook, that most humane of European explorers, met his death duri a final voyage in search of a North-West Passage. He had unwisely antagonised the natives by to ling their king hostage in a dispute over a stolen boat, and was killed by one of them whilst, characte stically, leaving the shore last as his men retreated from a hostile crowd. He died in February 1779, t the age of 50 — arguably the greatest navigator of all time, and a man who expanded the known world.

Front Page Quotations Other Quotes Week of 13 March, 2007
Quotations about Liberty and Power
About this Quotation:
The opening paragraphs of Macaulay's review of the Poet Laureate, Southey's, Colloquies is one of the funniest and most devastating reviews ever penned. He raises the interesting point about the wisdom of people who are experts in one area of human endeavour, say poetry or rock music, making serious pronouncements in areas where they have no expertise, say the economic well-being of ordinary working people or global warming. Macaulay argues very strongly in favour of seeing the health and economic condition of the working class in Britain to be better then (1830) than at any time in human history.

Tampa's hosting the Religious Conference Management Association's 30th Annual Convention January 29 to February 1, 2002, and according to Norwood Smith, vice president of sales with the Tampa Bay Convention & Visitors Bureau, RCMA's potential impact should bring some boom times back to the destination. "These meeting planners have the ability to fill our weekends, summer months and holidays—business that is critical to our success," says Smith.
RCMA's 30th anniversary conference and exposition will bring 1,282 attendees, including 400 meeting planners responsible for selecting sites for future religious meetings and conventions. DeWayne Woodring, CMP, RCMA's executive director, says that the religious market holds more than twice the number of conventions and meetings than does the entirety of the corporate market. According to a member survey reported in RCMA's magazine, Religious Conference Manager, members planned 16,335 conferences, meetings, and assemblies with nearly 15 million in attendance.
"Religious organizations have evolved over the years. They are looking for high-tech capabilities, first-rate hotels and world-class attractions. I can not think of a better time to be showcasing Tampa Bay," says Smith.
And Tampa's looking to greet RCMA in style. The CVB is hosting a pre-convention familiarization tour for 30 of the meeting planners that will showcase area attractions and restaurants such as Canoe Escape on the Hillsborough River, Columbia Restaurant, Duck Tours of Tampa Bay, International Plaza, Old Hyde Park Village, Oystercatchers, Saddlebrook Resort, Samba Room, and WestShore Plaza.
RCMA also provides behind-the-scenes tours for its attendees, in concert with the host city. This year, attendees can learn the inner workings of the Tampa Bay CVB, Hyatt Regency Tampa, Media General, Tampa Convention Center, and Tampa Marriott Waterside. For those who want to tour the destination, options include The Florida Aquarium, Lowry Park Zoo, a walking tour of Ybor City, and a bus tour of Tampa.
Conference events include the Opening Reception at The Florida Aquarium on Tuesday, January 29; the Opening General Assembly at the Tampa Convention Center and an evening function at Busch Gardens on Wednesday, January 30; and the Closing Banquet at the Tampa Marriott Waterside on Thursday, January 31.
To register for the conference, contact RCMA at (317) 632-1888, or visit http://www.rcmaweb.org.

Bologna v AS Roma: Preview
A frustrated and restless Maarten Stekelenburg directed an angry tirade at Roma head coach Zdenek Zeman ahead of tomorrow's Serie A game at Bologna.
The Dutch goalkeeper may have kicked off the current campaign as Zeman's first choice, starting the first nine games of the season before suffering injury, but he has since failed to recover his place from Mauro Goicoechea, who joined Roma in August.
Stekelenburg even went as far as to question the need for a third keeper in the capital city, pointing to the presence of experienced Romanian stopper Bogdan Lobont in the squad.
Quoted in La Repubblica, he told Dutch magazine Sport Promotion: ``I have ended up on the bench and Zeman has given me no explanation.
``I thought signing Goicoechea was unnecessary because Lobont and I were already here - two good goalkeepers.
``I'm targeting the World Cup and I'm tired of not playing.''
The 30-year-old would subsequently apologise to his manager and his team-mate before training on Friday, with Goicoechea accepting what his colleague had to say.
``I have a great relationship with Stek,'' he said. ``We had a chat and he explained to me that his words had been badly interpreted.''
Three defeats from five games have seen Roma slip into seventh place and victory at Bologna will come without the contribution of Mattia Destro.
The 21-year-old striker will miss up to two months of action after injuring his knee against Inter Milan in the Coppa Italia in midweek.
Alessio Romagnoli, Daniele De Rossi and Marquinhos are also injured, with midfielder Erik Lamela suspended, while Henry Gimenez, Cesare Natali and Robert Acquafresca miss out for Bologna.
Michele Pazienza and Nicolo Cherubin are banned but Rossoblu boss Stefano Pioli is trying to stay positive despite recent setbacks.
Following a 2-1 loss at AC Milan, Pioli said: ``Regardless of the defeat I think this has been a positive week.
``The team has improved and continues to improve. The league is difficult but I am convinced we will be ready when the next matches come round.''
Alberto Gilardino's brace proved decisive in a surprise 3-2 win in Rome back in September, but Bologna have to think back to 2004 to remember the last time they beat Roma at the Renato Dall'Ara.

For those times when you just can't seem to kick it into gear, these smart strategies will rev even the crankiest engine fast.
Related: 24 Ways to Boost Your Energy and Mood
Step 1: Boost Your Brain -- Turn Off the Tube
If your typical fix for end-of-day exhaustion is to plop down on the couch for a dose of Seinfeld reruns, you're not alone. Most people think that watching TV is a restful activity, but it may not be, says Marc Berman, PhD, a neuroscientist at the University of Michigan in Ann Arbor. In fact, television itself can be tiring, and the older you get, the fewer and fewer stress-reducing benefits you get from a session with the boob tube, a University of California, San Diego study says.
Instead of numbing your mind as a way to rejuvenate, stimulate it. Take a walk along a scenic trail; spending time in nature helps restore people's energy and focus, a 2008 study in Psychological Science found. What to skip when you're low on energy? The mall. You'll get more mental stimulation than you bargained for, which will leave you exhausted.
Step 2: Avoid the Quick Fix
It's no surprise that the food on your plate can be the deciding factor between a sluggish and a supercharged day. But more often than not, you don't need a total diet overhaul; small adjustments can go a long way toward optimizing your energy intake, says Ashley Koff, RD, a nutritionist in Los Angeles and FITNESS advisory board member. For starters, don't ditch caffeine. "A small cappuccino, tea with honey, and dark chocolate, all of which contain caffeine and sugar, are perfectly legitimate 'energy Band-Aids' when you need a lift in a hurry," Koff says. "The trouble comes when people rely on them daily. Spiking and plunging blood-glucose levels create an unhealthy cycle of energy highs and lows." What's more, the fluctuating glucose leads to murky decision making, according to a recent study from the University of South Dakota: When participants were asked whether they'd rather receive a small amount of money immediately or get a much larger amount later, those with lower glucose levels were more likely to seize the smaller sum. Clear thinking, scientists conclude, is helped by a constant glucose supply.
Another mistake: too much of a good thing. "Women think they're making a smart choice by having a healthy turkey, lettuce, and tomato on whole wheat sandwich and a piece of fruit for lunch," Koff says. "But three hours later they're at their desks in an energy slump, and they can't figure out why." You have to spread the health wealth, Koff says, because your body can use only so many nutrients for energy at one time, meaning a portion of that healthy lunch was used to fuel your body; the rest of the protein and carbs went to energy wasteland. Instead, "have your fruit with some nuts midmorning, then eat half your sandwich at noon and the other half at 3 p.m., when you start to feel sluggish." You'll keep a steady stream of nutrients flowing into your blood, holding the snack attack at bay.
And finally, when it comes to boosting energy, a carb is not a carb is not a carb. When people with type 2 diabetes ate white bread for breakfast in a University of Toronto study, they fared worse on verbal-memory and other cognitive tests than those who consumed low-glycemic foods, like pasta. To give your morning a lift, try toasting a whole-grain muffin and spreading a tablespoon of filling peanut butter on it or eat it with a scrambled egg.
Related: Is Your Diet Making You Mad?
Step 3: Stick to Your Workout Routine
Get this: Expending energy on exercise actually creates more for you to use. "Research shows that physically active people feel more energetic overall than sedentary people," says Patrick O'Connor, PhD, director of the University of Georgia exercise psychology laboratory in Athens. In one Australian study of 40,000 women, the more weekly physical activity they did, the more they reported feeling revved up. "It's likely that exercise stimulates neurotransmitters, such as dopamine, and this creates feelings of greater energy," O'Connor says. Aim for 20 to 40 minutes of cardio four or five times a week.
On the other hand, not all workouts need to be heavy-breathing sessions: Yoga is also restorative. A University of New Mexico study found that people who followed an eight-week yoga and meditation program had a significant increase in daily energy. And women who regularly practiced Hatha yoga had 41 percent less cytokine interleukin-6, a compound related to stress, in their blood than those who did not, researchers at Ohio State University found. "Because of the type of deep breathing that's incorporated into yoga, when you do even a single pose you bring freshly oxygenated blood to your organs," says Mary-Ann Mastreani, a yoga instructor in Irvington, New York.
For an instant pick-me-up, try performing this Easy Energy Twist at the office or in your living room:
Sit on the edge of a chair, back straight, feet flat on the ground. Inhale as you raise your arms over your head (a); exhale and bring your left hand to your right knee and your right hand slightly behind you on the chair (b). Twist to the right. Sitting tall, inhale and exhale while gently increasing the twist. Relax; switch sides. "Twisting increases blood flow and stimulates digestion, temporarily speeding up your metabolism and increasing energy," Mastreani says.
Step 4: Listen Up
"Music makes you feel good mentally and physically," says celebrity trainer Jim Karas, author of The 7 Day Energy Surge. "Research shows it can reduce anxiety, lower blood pressure, and decrease stress hormones, and that it may increase feel-good hormones and improve your fitness performance." College students zipped through a series of cognitive tasks when listening to upbeat music in a recent study from the University of Dayton. And after people worked out to music, their mental performance improved, compared with exercising song-less, researchers at Ohio State University found.
"Music gives you that extra motivation," Karas says. "If it's dark outside when I have to get out of bed, I crank up the music to make myself more alert." In the morning, choose something peppy -- think Beyonce or the Black Eyed Peas -- because your mind needs a positive nudge, not an angry blast of heavy metal. In the evening, give Mozart a try. People with sleep problems who listened to classical music for 45 minutes before bed snoozed more soundly than those who didn't, according to researchers in Budapest. What's sleep got to do with energy? Plenty. Scientists at the University of California, San Diego discovered that skipping a night of sleep significantly impaired cognitive abilities in people in their 20s and 30s. "When clients tell me they need only six hours, I tell them that they've trained themselves to live on that," Karas says. "But if they got more, they'd see a huge improvement in their energy."
Step 5: Quit Freaking Out
It's ironic that one of the biggest energy consumers of our day has nothing to do with packed schedules or sweaty workouts. Little everyday stressors, like sitting in traffic, can cause a total energy meltdown. "Not at first," explains Kimberly Kingsley, author of The Energy Cure, "because your initial reaction to stress is that your body starts pumping the hormone cortisol into your bloodstream, giving you an adrenaline rush." Your heart rate rises, your muscles tense, and your mind goes on high alert. But the rush is unsustainable, and before long your energy starts to crash, leaving you feeling foggy and unfocused.
In fact, 76 percent of people in the United States feel the physical symptoms of stress, including fatigue, according to a recent survey by the American Psychological Association. "The minute anxiety causes your heart to start racing and your breathing to become shallow, begin taking deep, deliberate inhales and exhales," Kingsley says. "Focus on breathing in and out until your heart rate goes back to normal."
Related: 20-Minute Workout for Fast Stress Relief
Step 6: Tap Happy Vibes
When you're feeling down, your energy tanks along with your spirits, leaving you sluggish. On the flip side, "Happy people have higher energy," says Sonja Lyubomirsky, PhD, author of The How of Happiness. When researchers at the University of California, Riverside asked people to keep a journal of their feelings, those who reported the greatest number of positive emotions also reported having the most energy day to day. "When we're happy, we take charge, initiate conversations with people, and carry out plans, instead of being passive responders to life events," Lyubomirsky says. "Taking action energizes us." Pump up your own positive thinking by jotting down five things you are grateful for, she suggests. Reread your list when you need a smile. For a double dose of happiness, practice random acts of kindness throughout your week. Open the door for the person behind you at the grocery store or compliment a colleague on his or her work. Generosity toward others makes you feel happier inside today and revved up to take on the world tomorrow.

It was dirty, absolutely stark beyond normal hostels I've ever stayed at, and so loud! The staff were barely helpful, and the location is only acceptable for its proximity to the train station...and even that wasn't so close! Would never stay here again.

- This is strong plastic and these Pure® pots can take quite a beating! Good to know when you have (grand)children and/or pets around.
- Pure® pots are UV resistant too so they are colourfast. They will not fade in the light of the summer sun.

My iPhone 3gs (bought after september) 16g is having a recovery loop. I had the tethered jailbreak with blackra1n that WORKED perfectly until I installed some applications (installous). I rebooted, and I come up with the recovery + i tunes logo which was normal at the time
I run blackrain, and geohot's picture comes up, (normal so far) and then when it says --done, wait for reboot --on the blackrain application on my computer, the picture stays there for a bit (about a minute) than reboots the iphone and goes back to the recovery mode screen. I've tried rebooting it, restarting my computer, re jailbreaking it, I also tried iRecovery but for some reason the exe just doesn't work for me.
It's a never ending cycle, is there anyway you guys would know a solution for this?
(I would restore but due to the new update 3.1.3 I can't without waiting for another leak for it to be jailbroken again).
I have tried running blackra1n over and over, and also the hard reset +holding home button, so please don't flame.
Iphone seems to be restarting by itself also.
I've searched on the forums and google but if I missed a thread that shows a solution to this, please post a link!

text: Two months ago I replaced the wax ring on a toilet due to a strong sewer smel. The odor went away immediately. However it is now back! Any ideas on why? I don't see any cracks in the porcelain, there is no apparent water leaking and the toilet functions properly. The toilet is late '80s and I replaced the ring with an Oatley reinforced standard size (flange is slightly above floor level). Thank you for any input!!

Household products giant Procter & Gamble reported quarterly earnings and revenue on Thursday that beat analysts' expectations.
The company, which makes household staples such as Bounty paper towels and Tide detergent, reported fiscal second-quarter earnings excluding items of $1.22 per share, up from $1.10 a share a year ago.
Revenue rose to $22.18 billion from $22.14 billion a year ago.
Shares of P&G traded higher in pre-market trading following the announcement. (Click here to get the latest quotes for Procter & Gamble.)
Analysts had expected P&G to report earnings excluding items of $1.11 a share on $21.91 billion in revenue, according to a consensus estimate from Thomson Reuters.
"The consumer is definitely hanging in there. We haven't seen an inflection point in the market growth rates yet, but we also haven't seen any deterioration. So it's reasonably good," Procter & Gamble CFO Jon Moeller told CNBC.
He added: "There are other tailwinds related to the broader macro environment. Much more benign commodity environment than we saw in the last two years. Certainly a better environment from a foreign-exchange standpoint."
Recently, the company has been under pressure from investors, most notably activist investor William Ackman, to streamline its operations. A series of missteps has caused P&G to stumble behind its competitors.
Ackman has said many of the company's problems were due to top management but said in the fall he understood the board wanted to give Chief Executive Bob McDonald more time to repair years of damage.
Even before Ackman took a stake, P&G was going through a $10 billion restructuring and other changes.
P&G has been working for months to improve its structure and cut costs. It has admitted that recent products were not as strong as past successes, such as Swiffer and Crest Whitestrips.
Competitors Kimberly-Clark and Colgate-Palmolive are trimming their ranks to contend with weak economies in the U.S. and Western Europe.
(Read More: Kimberly-Clark Slashes Costs, Ups Marketing in Profit Beat)
P&G said it expects fiscal 2013 core earnings of $3.97 to $4.07 per share, up from an earlier forecast of $3.80 to $4. The fiscal year ends in June.
It expects sales that strip out acquisitions, divestitures and foreign exchange fluctuations to rise 3 percent to 4 percent this year, versus a prior forecast of 2 percent to 4 percent growth.
P&G also said it now plans to repurchase $5 billion to $6 billion in stock after calling for $4 billion to $6 billion in buybacks.

Adding a mini-tank isn't going to fill a tub- it has to be something "real". But mini-tank under the bathroom sink would waste less water (and less hot water) for short draws. With the tank currently located at the far end of the house you cold easily be drawing a gallon or two of hot water for a 1 pint hand washing even, leaving the bulk of the hot water drawn in the plumbing.
Right-sizing the total amount of tank storage volume to the tub size is the best option, and it probably means adding a local 30+ gallon tank, plumbing it in series with the output of the remote tank. Plan-B would be an electric tankless, but even a 20kw version could be painfully slow to fill a soaking-tub, and the expense of upgrading the power to the house & wiring to support it can be daunting. (A dedicated 100A, 240V for the tankless would be needed this isn't just adding a run of romex and big ganged breaker- you may even need to upgrade the power drop from the transformer to your house, depending on your other loads and the existing situation.)

It would be easy to be cynical about Triumph's new Thunderbird Storm. Its route of taking an existing cruiser model and spinning off a pared down, mean and moody, all-black, 'hot rod'-styled variant is, after all, a well-trodden one.

RICHMOND, Va. - James Madison had two football players earn Colonial Athletic Association Football Player of the Week honors, as sophomore punter Conner Arnone was named Special Teams Player of the Week and redshirt-freshman linebacker Gage Steele earned Rookie of the Week honors. It is the first league honor for both.
Arnone had a stellar all-around day in the Dukes' win over UAlbany, finishing with a 49.5-yard punt average on four punts that included a career-long 65-yarder. The sophomore also averaged 60.8 yards on eight kickoffs that featured three touchbacks in a special teams effort that forced the Great Danes to on average begin drives from their 27-yard line.
Steele broke open for a career day against the Great Danes, turning in an 18-tackle effort that leads the league through the opening six weeks of the season. The rookie racked up 13 solo stops and one sack in JMU's dominant win, with four of his tackles ending Dane drives. His 18 tackles are the first 18-plus game since Justin Barnes had 19 against New Hampshire in 2007, while the 13 solos tie the highest since 1999 along with Pat Williams (vs. Towson in 2009) and Akeem Jordan (vs. Appalachian State in 2006). Steele's showing highlighted a defensive unit that held UAlbany to just 81 rushing yards and five of 19 third-down conversions on Saturday.
JMU hosts the Richmond Spiders Saturday at Bridgeforth Stadium in its third Colonial Athletic Association game of the season. The game is scheduled to kick off at 3:30 p.m. and will be televised nationally on NBC Sports Network. Tickets for the game against Richmond are currently on sale, as well as available for student online pickup and for students to purchase guest tickets.

Liquor business owner shows opposition to flood diversion projectFargo, ND (WDAY TV) - A small town business owner is taking big steps to putting a stop to the F-M Diversion Project.
By: Kay Cooley, WDAY Staff Reports, WDAY
Fargo, ND (WDAY TV) - A small town business owner is taking big steps to putting a stop to the F-M Diversion Project.
Hickson's Knickerbocker Liquor Locker owner Mike Bice is reaching out through the radio, to make his voice heard.
It's a message being played on many stations in the metro and it's become a battle cry in Hickson at its small town neighborhood bar.
Mike Bice, Knickerbocker Liquor Locker Owner: "It's a little cliché, but keeps awareness out there that this project is more than just a diversion."
Mike Bice has been the owner of Knickerbocker Liquor Locker for nearly 10 years, and has spent much of his time the last few years fearing flooding the proposed F-M diversion could bring.
He says it and its Dam could destroy Hickson, Oxbow, and Bakke.
Now he's taking measures into his own hands, with help from the airwaves, using ads for his bar to speak out against the diversion.
Bice: "It's more the attention that we're not currently communities that flood. So the fact that they're buying us out, we don't need buyouts, if it wasn't for the damming component of this diversion."
In addition to buying airtime, Bice is selling t-shirts and bumper stickers and has started his own Facebook page, Don't Dam the Knicker, to generate support.
Bice: "We're not against diversion or flood protection for Fargo. We're against the dam that will flood out our communities that don't currently flood."
A dam that would wipe out business for Bice.
Bice: "We're standing here and we're ready to fight for what's right, which our land is just as important as anybody's in Fargo as well."
Fight for what he believes is not only best for bar goers, but their homes in the surrounding communities.
Bice says he plans to update his radio ads frequently with new slogans, but will keep them running.
