My sister was recently diagnosed with metastatic thyroid cancer. How can I help her? What can I do/say?
Michelle LeBeau, Thyroid Cancer Survivor and Founder of REACT Thyroid Foundation responds:
As a metastatic thyroid cancer patient myself, I have relied heavily on the support from my family and my sister. Her just knowing that you are there to listen and give her support will do wonders. I also found it very important to have someone to attend my doctor appointments with me and help take notes. There will be a lot of information for her to learn, digest and make decisions about. You could greatly help her in that area.
This question and answer was part of OncoLink's Brown Bag Web Chat Series. View the entire transcript of Focus on Thyroid Cancer.
May 13, 2013 - Terminally ill patients who are well supported by religious communities use less hospice care and receive more aggressive medical interventions near death, according to a study published online May 6 in JAMA Internal Medicine.

CNN — Continuing his charge against the Obama administration on gun control proposals, Wayne LaPierre of the National Rifle Association charged Thursday that President Barack Obama's proposals in the State of the Union address were "not about keeping kids safe at school" but rather part of a broad campaign to "dismantle the Second Amendment."
"When nothing else matters to every parent in America, President Obama had nothing to say about school security and nothing he proposed has anything to do with protecting one child in any school in this country," LaPierre said in remarks billed as a response to Tuesday's speech.
"A year ago, I began to warn American gun owners all over this country that if re-elected President Obama would set about dismantling the Second Amendment to our Constitution of the United States - that with no more elections to worry about, the president would wait for the right political opportunity to exploit and launch the most aggressive campaign in history to destroy our Second Amendment rights," he added, speaking at the annual convention for the National Wild Turkey Federation in Nashville.
The speech came one day after LaPierre issued a rally-cry for gun owners, writing in an op-ed that "good Americans are prudently getting ready to protect themselves" against what he described as an onslaught of doom.
"Hurricanes. Tornadoes. Riots. Terrorists. Gangs. Lone criminals. These are perils we are sure to face-not just maybe. It's not paranoia to buy a gun. It's survival," the NRA's executive vice president wrote in the op-ed published Wednesday by the conservative news website, The Daily Caller.
"It's responsible behavior," he continued. "And it's time we encourage law-abiding Americans to do just that."
LaPierre's comments Thursday focused on school safety, which Obama spoke about in the wake of the December 14 mass shooting at Sandy Hook Elementary School in Newtown, Connecticut that left 20 students dead.
But with Obama's speech this week, he said "...that charade ended at the State of the Union."
He renewed his call for adoption of the NRA's program to put armed and trained security officers in schools to protect students, and pledged the NRA's growing membership would "stand and fight throughout this country for our freedom" to defend themselves.
LaPierre has been a leading yet controversial voice against gun control proposals as Washington grapples with a flood of firearm legislation in the wake of Newtown shooting.
In his State of the Union Address, Obama called for lawmakers to bring all of the proposals, including an assault weapons ban, forward for consideration.
"Each of these proposals deserves a vote in Congress. If you want to vote no, that's your choice. But these proposals deserve a vote," Obama said. "Because in the two months since Newtown, more than a thousand birthdays, graduations, and anniversaries have been stolen from our lives by a bullet from a gun."
LaPierre wrote Wednesday that defenders of gun rights are more fired up than ever to purchase firearms-not because they fear conflict with the government, as some have argued, but because they "anticipate confrontations where the government isn't there."
As examples, he cited stories of looting after Superstorm Sandy, claimed terrorists would infiltrate through the U.S. southern border and warned of a lack of funds to pay for police protection should Obama's fiscal policies result in economic disaster.
"No wonder Americans are buying guns in record numbers right now, while they still can and before their choice about which firearm is right for their family is taken away forever," he wrote.
White House Senior Adviser David Plouffe responded to the op-ed, writing on Twitter Wednesday that it's "hard to believe this is real. Every GOPer should read and decide if this delusional person will call the shots."
Obama spoke on the issue Thursday when asked about gun control in an online chat.
"I actually don't think we should ban handguns, but keep in mind that what we're trying to do is come up with a package that protects Second Amendment rights but also makes a meaningful difference in reducing violence," he said in a "Google Hangout" online chat.
LaPierre further laid out a four-year plan for a "resistance movement" that entails fighting legal battles against gun law legislation, boosting NRA membership, and strengthening the organization financially. Deep into his op-ed, he called for donations-"$20, $50, $250, or $1,000 at a time-and dedicated several paragraphs to reasons why the group needed more members.
"An even stronger NRA is the only chance gun owners have to withstand the coming siege," he wrote, saying the group is launching a "full-court initiative" to recruit more "lover(s) of freedom." The group already one of the largest advocacy organizations, with four million members.
"This begins with remembering to keep your own membership active, or reactivate it if it has lapsed," he continued. "It means reminding yourself, 'I have a son and daughter who aren't members and should be'."
The Brady Campaign to Prevent Gun Violence said in a statement from spokeswoman Debra DeShong Reed that the "NRA leadership and their lobbyists are out of touch with their own members.
"We believe it is absolutely possible to have sensible gun laws to curb the epidemic of gun violence in our country while respecting the 2nd Amendment. Clearly so do most members of the NRA and the leadership should listen to their own members," she wrote in a statement.
LaPierre also blamed the media, certain lawmakers and high-profile figures, such as New York Mayor Michael Bloomberg, for making Americans "feel guilty about buying a gun."
"The enemies of freedom demonize gun buyers and portray us as social lepers," he added.
Concluding his op-ed, LaPierre vowed that NRA members "will not surrender."
"We will not appease. We will buy more guns than ever. We will use them for sport and lawful self-defense more than ever. We will grow the NRA more than ever. And we will be prouder than ever to be freedom-loving NRA patriots," he wrote. "We will Stand and Fight."

The Truth About Back Surgery
Of the 56 million Americans who have back pain, only 5 percent need surgery. Here's how to protect yourself and find relief that really works.
Want to know more about back pain? Check out our Complete Guide to Back Pain for more information and solutions.
By Toni Gerber Hope & Susan Ince

There's an old joke in medicine: A man goes to the doctor because he has a miserable cold. His doctor prescribes some pills, but they don't help. On his next visit, the doctor gives him a shot, but that doesn't do any good, either. On the third visit, the doctor advises, "Go home and take a hot bath. As soon as you finish bathing, throw open all the windows and stand in the draft."
"But Doc," protests the patient, "if I do that, I'll get pneumonia."
"I know," says the doctor. "I can cure that."
If you have back pain, you may feel like the guy with the cold. Your doctor gives you one pill, then another kind, then a third. Maybe he sends you for a shot. Or he advises cold, or heat, or alternating cold and heat. And then it may be on to X-rays or scans. It's a scattershot approach based on often thin, even contradictory, evidence of what actually helps.
And it has made bad backs big business. Americans spend nearly $86 billion a year on their aching backs, which is just about on par with the outlay for cancer treatment. Yet for all those dollars doled out at doctors' offices and hospitals, and for medications, manipulations, and pain-relief products to use at home there has been no improvement in how patients fare overall, say researchers in a University of Washington study that compared reports from 1997 through 2005. In fact, today a larger proportion remain impaired by their back troubles. "The truth is, we may have oversold what we have to offer," says Richard A. Deyo, M.D., professor of evidence-based family medicine at Oregon Health & Science University. "We're using tests and treatments more widely than the science really supports."
A pill or heat belt that doesn't relieve pain is one thing. But what if you undergo surgery, spend months in rehabilitation, and still feel no better? That's what happened to Catherine Johnson, 50, a onetime competitive figure skater who is "not the sedentary type," she says. Johnson, the mom of an 18-year-old daughter, has owned four businesses and was active in her New Hampshire community. But for seven years, her life revolved largely around pain from a slipped disc in her back. She'd tried just about everything, but was still miserable: "My friends were sick of hearing me say, 'I can't do that because of my back.' And I was sick of saying it."
So in 2004, Johnson underwent surgery to repair the disc. She'd had a similar operation 10 years before and thought this one would be just as helpful. It wasn't. She was still in a lot of pain, still telling friends she couldn't do things. Three years later, in 2007, Johnson was injured further when a drunk driver slammed into her car. Afterward, she suffered muscle spasms and flares of pain so intense she often had to go to the emergency room for heavy-duty drugs. Finally, a new doctor referred her to the Spine Center at Dartmouth-Hitchcock Medical Center in Lebanon, NH. After 14 full days in the functional restoration program, doing intensive physical therapy and learning psychological techniques for managing pain, she found relief. In fact, the turnaround was so great that in September Johnson moved to California, where she hopes to get back to coaching skaters. "It's what I love most," she says.
Johnson's story wouldn't surprise Charles Rosen, M.D., clinical professor of orthopedic surgery at the University of California, Irvine, School of Medicine. "An enormous number of back surgeries don't give patients long-term relief," he says. There's even a term for what happens when an operation doesn't improve a patient's condition "failed back surgery syndrome," said to be the only diagnosis named for a treatment that hasn't worked.
It gets worse. This is an area of medicine that's been tainted by suspiciously cozy relationships between industry and doctors. In July, for example, Jeffrey Wang, M.D., was dismissed from his post as executive codirector of the UCLA Comprehensive Spine Center for not disclosing about half a million dollars in payments he'd received from companies whose surgical products he was researching. (The David Geffen School of Medicine at UCLA, where Dr. Wang is still on the faculty, is looking into the matter.) And in a 2006 settlement with the Department of Justice, medical-device manufacturer Medtronic agreed to pay $40 million to settle allegations that one of the company's divisions had paid kickbacks to doctors to induce them to use the division's spinal products. The company, which also entered into a five-year Corporate Integrity Agreement (to ensure that relationships with physicians are appropriate), has denied any wrongdoing or illegal activity.

A brush-on method for natural-looking, top-layer highlights
Use the guidelines below to decide the highlighting look you are after and suggest techniques to get these results.
Brighten your overall look with lighter accents throughout your hair. Lots of subtle highlights will give you a total lighter look than just a few bold highlights. Just apply Frost & Tip to strands pulled through holes all around the cap. Not recommended for HairPainting. Great for all hairstyles!
Draw attention to your features with highlights placed just around your face. It's a great way to add warmth to your skin or soften a harsh, too-solid hairline. Simply comb your hair into your usual style and apply Nice 'n Easy HairPainting along the hairline surrounding your face, including your bangs. Or, you can apply Nice 'n Easy Frost & Tip just to strands pulled through holes in the front of the cap. Great for all hairstyles!
Enhance dimension at the front and top of your head with crown highlights. This technique works best on chin length or shorter styles. Just comb your hair into your usual style and apply Nice 'n Easy HairPainting to select strands at the top of your head and at the front hairline. Or, you can apply Nice 'n Easy Frost & Tip only to strands pulled through holes in these same areas. Best for chin length and shorter styles.
Lighten just the ends of your hair for a fresh look no matter what style or hair length you have. Comb your hair into your usual style and brush Nice 'n Easy HairPainting onto the ends only. Or apply Frost & Tip to the ends with gloved fingertips. You can also use the cap and hook as you would for all-over highlights: simply pull your hair through the holes in the same way, but only cover the last inch of each strand. Best for chin length and shorter styles.
Lock in color and shine with ColorSeal Weekly Conditioning Gloss. Apply after shampooing for intensive conditioning and then continue to use weekly on any type of highlight.
Nice 'n Easy hair highlight products work for a range of shades. You can use either Frost & Tip or Hairpainting on shades from light blonde to dark brown. Try Nice 'n Easy Hairpainting to highlight after hair coloring. Want to create hair highlights on permed hair? Select Frost & Tip Permed.
The method you use depends on the amount of highlighting that you want - both methods are easy to use for creating beautiful, natural-looking hair highlights at home. Use the cap and hook in Frost & Tip for all-over highlights. Choose Hairpainting if you just want to brush highlights onto the top layer of your hair.
Use Nice 'n Easy Hairpainting to highlight after hair coloring. Select Frost & Tip Permed for creating hair highlights on permed hair.
Keep colored and highlighted hair looking its best by protecting it. Cover your hair when you plan to spend a long time in the sun.

556. Petro-dollar, the cause of Iran war (7/4/08)
People think the nuclear ambition of Iran is the reason for Iran war. That is only right on Israel's part. For US part, it is petro-dollar.
US dollar is appointed currency in oil trading. Because the oil trade is a huge business, a large amount of dollar is locked up in that trade. That money is called petro-dollar. Why it is so important to US? Because it acts as a long term none interest loan The prosperous US economy partly was based on the petro-dollar - a long term loan without interest. Let me depict it in this way:
US bought a house from Japan (whom represents the oil customers of Iran) for one million dollars. US also bought another house from France (whom represents other oil customers of OPEC) for one million dollars. Japan and France use these two million dollars as fund to buy oil. The money was used in oil trading circle and never back to US. US enjoys the two houses almost free. He doesn't have to pay monthly mortgage payment. Not a penny for interest, nor for principle. All the cost was the printing of a green back paper. However, that green back paper - petro dollar, is still a debit note. How long is it? So far it's more than forty years - since dollar became the appointed oil trade currency.
But suddenly, Iran refuses to accept dollar. Japan has to ask US to exchange that one million dollar into Euro or yen. What US can do is: 1. to get the dollar back by export more merchandise. But he is not able to. He has a trade deficit already. 2. To get the dollar back with gold or foreign currency reserve. But he hasn't that much reserve. 3. To lock up that extra one million dollar in US Bond by raising the interest rate to attract the buyer. But he unwilling to do it. There is a sub-prime crisis in real estate market. Any interest increase will further devalue the house. Feds holds a large amount of real estates in my case, they don't allow such thing to happen. So to solve the problem, they go to the fourth option. 4. By pushing up the oil price.
France (other oil consumption countries) keeps one million dollar as oil trading fund. How much does he need if the oil price doubled? Two million. Thus the one million dollar Japan abandoned is absorbed by France. That's why the oil price jumped like crazy in recent days - a tricky way to keep US dollar from collapsing.
US has to pay for high oil price too. Ordinary people bear the cost. But the high oil price will hurt the economy. The condition won't last long. So war on Iran is unavoidable.
Of course, US is a "democratic" country. It can't start a war because others refusing to use its currency. Then beware of another 911 style false flag attack.
We know there was an incident of live nuclear head weapons being carried over the continental US by a B-52 last August. There is attempt of dirty bomb attack in Houston this year.
Quote, "State of Emergency: The US in the Final Six Months of the George W. Bush Administration
by Lewis Seiler and Dan Hamburg
June 13, 2008 by CommonDreams.org
Former National Security Agency analyst and naval intelligence officer Wayne Madsen has been in Houston investigating the Carnaby case at great personal risk. Madsen believes Carnaby was involved both in heading off a potential war with Iran (by leaking Mossad plans to assassinate Hezbollah leader Hassan Nasrallah just days before Carnaby himself was killed) and in trying to forestall a potential terrorist attack on the port.
According to Madsen, "federal agents in Houston fear that 'another 9/11-type part false flag' attack is imminent, perhaps as early as July 4.".......
Another time factor for Iran war is the Olympic Game in August. China has interest in Iran. He is an oil customer of Iran. Olympic Game could be an extortion chip for China's support in Iran war.

Al-Qaeda Threatens to Unleash 'Nuclear Hellstorm' if bin Laden Caught
Posted by Ingrid Turner on Apr 25, 2011
Guantanamo Bay, Cuba (NEWSTABULOUS) – According to news reported by WikiLeaks, threats have been received from al-Qaeda terrorists, stating that they will "unleash a nuclear hellstorm" upon Western countries if Osama bin Laden is ever caught or killed.
WikiLeaks: Al-Qaida Has Nuclear Weapons

The militant group al-Qaeda claims to have nuclear weapons and did not hesitate to use them if their leader, Osama bin Laden captured or killed by the United States. Not yet known exactly where al-Qaeda's nuclear weapons are stored, but are found in Europe.

. Slideshow:Al-Qaida's deputy leader: Ayman al-Zawahri .
By Sara Anabtawi Sara Anabtawi – 1 hr 4 mins ago
DUBAI (Reuters) – Veteran militant Ayman al-Zawahri has taken command of al Qaeda after the killing of Osama bin Laden, an Islamist website said on Thursday, a move widely expected following his long years as second-in-command.
Bin Laden's lieutenant and the brains behind much of al Qaeda's strategy, Zawahri vowed this month to press ahead with al Qaeda's campaign against the United States and its allies.
"The general leadership of al Qaeda group, after the completion of consultation, announces that Sheikh Dr. Ayman Zawahri, may God give him success, has assumed responsibility for command of the group," the Islamist website Ansar al-Mujahideen (Followers of the Holy Warriors) said.
A U.S. counter-terrorism official told Reuters the United States believed the announcement was genuine.
The bespectacled Zawahri had been seen as bin Laden's most likely successor after the man held responsible for the September 11, 2001, attacks in New York and Washington was shot dead by U.S. commandos in Pakistan 45 days ago.
Zawahri's whereabouts are unknown, although he has long been thought to be hiding along the border between Afghanistan and Pakistan. The United States is offering a $25 million reward for any information leading to his capture or conviction.
In Washington, a senior U.S. official said Zawahri would have a hard time leading the Islamist group "while focusing on his own survival."
"He hasn't demonstrated strong leadership or organizational skills during his time in AQ," the official said. "Unlike many of AQ's top members, Zawahri has not had actual combat experience, instead opting to be an armchair general with a 'soft' image."
Sajjan Gohel of Asia-Pacific Foundation security consultants said Zawahri had been in practical charge of al Qaeda for many years, but lacked bin Laden's presence and his "ability to unite the different Arab factions within the group."
Fawaz Gerges, a Middle East expert at the London School of Economics, said al Qaeda's militants in south Asia were "on the run," its leaders were deep in hiding, and a new leader would do little to help reverse their fortunes.
As for its branches in other parts of the world, they were "pitted in a fierce local struggle for survival...and are unable to coordinate their actions with the parent organization."
Others see Zawahri as capable.
"He is an able person," Pakistani Taliban spokesman Ehsanullah Ehsan said by telephone from an undisclosed location.
"We have been cooperating with al Qaeda in the past and that cooperation will continue in future," he told Reuters.
When asked how Zawahri's appointment will affect the Pakistani Taliban, the spokesman said: "We have been carrying out our activities which, God willing, will gather more momentum. We will get revenge for the oppression by the West."
The Pakistani Taliban, which has close links to al Qaeda, is blamed for many suicide bombings across Pakistan. It also has ambitions to take its fight overseas. The group claimed responsibility for a botched bombing in New York in May, 2010.
London-based journalist Abdel-Bari Atwan, who interviewed bin Laden in 1996, said Zawahri was the "operational brains" behind al Qaeda and was respected in part because he had been bin Laden's chosen deputy.
A contributor to another Islamist militant website, al-Ansar, said: "A worthy successor to a great predecessor. We ask God to grant you and your soldiers success for the victory of Islam and Muslims and to raise the banner of religion."
Believed to be in his late 50s, Zawahri met bin Laden in the mid-1980s when both were in Pakistan to support guerrillas fighting the Soviets in Afghanistan. Born to an upper-class Cairo family, Zawahri trained as a doctor and surgeon.
In a video message posted on the internet on June 8, Zawahri said al Qaeda would continue to fight. He called this year's Arab uprisings a disaster for Washington because, he said, they would remove Arab leaders who were the "agents of America."
He also pledged allegiance to the leader of the Afghan Taliban, Mullah Omar, calling him "Emir of the Believers."
Among some Egyptians there was disdain at the news that their countryman had taken charge of al Qaeda.
Karim Sabet, 34, a director of an oil and gas start-up firm, said he was not surprised by the announcement.
"He's been the loyal No. 2 forever. Zawahri seems even more of a madman than Osama was, and he'll want to prove himself by going on the attack soon. Another devil killing in the name of Islam. Disgusting."

.*�;� The COLLEGE VOL. XLI, NO. 21 ARDMORE and BRYN MAWR, PA., WEDNESDAY, APRIL 11, 1945 Copyrijht, Truilcei of Bryn Miwr Collage. 1945 Colleges Discuss Various Plans Of Organization Other Colleges' Rigidity Contrasts with B. M.'s Liberalism Virginia Thomas, Lovina Brend- linger, Harji Malik, and Patricia Behrens represented Bryn Mawr at the Seven College Conference, an annual meeting of delegates from the main north-eastern wom- en's colleges, held during spring vacation at Smith College. The main part of this year's meeting centered on a comparison of the various organizational . systems of the colleges represented. The Conference, composed of Barnard, Mt. Holyoke, Radcliffe, Vassar, Smith, Wellesley, and Bryn Mawr, with Sarah Lawrence as a guest college, also discussed such specific problems as war work, prevalent apathy, and the practical value of the academic and social honor .systems of some of the colleges. Bryn Mawr Absence of faculty and admin- istration control in SelfjGovern- ment and extra-curricular fields, and a generally greater indepen- dence of organizations and indi- viduals seem to mark the contrast between Bryn Mawr and the other colleges. Faculty are an integral part of the Self - Government judiciary boards in many of the other col- Continued on Page 4 B. M. Represented At Annual Forum The Fruits of Victory�1919 vs. 194-? was the comprehensive topic of the second annual College Forum meeting last Saturday, April 8. The Forum, sponsored by Mademoiselle, met with the pur- pose of bringing "college women face to face with the errors of post-war period of World War I,,' and acquainting them with their origin and the steps necessary to right them. Delegates from fourteen col- leges were present at the Forum, and many distinguished speakers presented the political and social problems awaiting solution. Doro- thy Bruchholz '46 and Nanette Emery '47 represented Bryn Mawr. Following a short discussion of the problems, the college delegates presented short reports on their current campus activities, programs such as Mtlr' Holyoke's Fellowship of Faiths and Smith's Labor Relation Group furnished testimony that the political theor- ies of the classroom are being transformed into community ac- tion. Prominent among the speakers were Carl Van Doren, who dis- cussed Defeatism; Dr. Margaret Mead, talking on Social Responsi- bility toward onr Fellow-men; Mrs. Vera Micheles Dean, speak- ing on World Security in the United States, and Captain Mildred McAfee, who presented the aims and techniques of post-war tech- niques, Lt. John Mason Brown, U.S.N.R., presided. R. Saltau Analyzes Conflicting Ideals Of France Today Music Room, April 5: "The problem of reconciling freedom and authority is the age-long problem in all governments in all countries," declared Mr. Roger Soltau in a discussion of "Freedom and Authority in Contemporary French Politics." In modern France this struggle has taken its particular form as a result of the Revolution, dividing French society into Right and Left. . "The Revolution is either an over-completed or under-complet- ed effect," said Mr. Soltau. The Right, which reached its climax under the Vichy government, "a regime of authority and hierarchy, bu^lt on merit and work," seeks to undo the work of the Revolution. It wishes to replace ParliamentJ with a strong executive which will not menace the existing structure of society with the promise of so- cial reform. Th� Left, alterna- tively, feels the Revolution has not gone far enough, particularly in the matter of social changes, iiiul opposes-Parliament for this reason. "These conflicting ideals some- how or other became united in the last great war/" said Mr Soltau; but shortly thereafter the Russian revolution and the emergence of the corporate state in. Italy re- newed the struggle. There was a complete reversal of international policy in both groups, not because of a changed point of view in the international field, but because domestic policy has come to domi- nate foreign policy. The Right, previously strongly Continued on Page 4 Malik Describes College Council \As Campus9 Main Unifying Body The newly-elected Under- Undergraduate Council. Cowan to Treat Philosophy, Law Speaking on "Philosophy and Law," Dr. Thomas Cowan of the University of Pennsylvania will discuss the effect of various classi- cal philosophic systems on law and jurisprudence in a lecture sponsored by the Philosophy club this Wednesday. Dr. Cowan intends to show the limitations to which jurisprudence was subjected in the jurists' at- tempt to apply seventeenth cen- tury Rationalism and eighteenth century Empiricism to law. Out of the writings of Peirce and William James a pragmatic philosophy has developed in the nineteenth and twentieth century. These writings have had an important effect on many recent jurists, especially Roscoe Pound of Harvard, under whom Dr. Cowan has studied. Dr. Cowsji has had a varied and (interesting background prior to his position as Associate Profes- sor in the Philosophy Department at the University of Pennsylvania. Primarily interested in jurispru- dence and social philosophy, Dr. Cowan taught jurisprudence at the Louisiana State University af- ter taking his doctorate in Phil- osophy at the University of Penn- sylvania and his degree in Juris- prudence at Harvard. He js also concerned with legal systems and the formulation of philosophical jurisprudence in terms of the system of philosophy called "empirical idealism." Richardson Holds Red Cross Office For Campus Uhit College Inauguration Marked 25th Year of Council Marge Richai-dson, found by our reporter buried in distilling ap- paratus in the Chem. lab after the news of her election as the new Campus Red Cross Unit Chair- man, Tuesday afternoon, was still a little hesitant at the idea of be- ing interviewed by the News. In view of her past record in Park, she carefully explained, her reluc- tance was purely "for our own good." A definite Chemistry ma- jor, Marge is the first non-histor- ian on the Alliance Board, and claims that she hereby resolves to keep all explosions limited to the Chem. building. For next year she foresees a broader and more varied Red Cross program. Less emphasis will be put on work in the line of bandage rolling, for which, says Marge, there is obviously little en- thusiasm at Bryn Mawr, and a greater emphasis on courses with more popular appeal, such as Home Nursing. Marge has been in charge of bandage rolling on campus during this year,�a position which her nomination write-up described as helpful in acquiring the psycholo- gical approach for inducing peo- ple to work, as well as actually producing the dressings. Specially Contributed by Harji Malik, '43 The traditional inauguration ceremony of the new presidents of the five main campus organiza- tions, held in Goodhart on April 4, was especially significant this year in that it marked the twenty- fifth anniversary of Bryn Mawr's College Council. The College Council is at, the same time one of the least known and most important representative groups on campus. In its role as the main coordinating body of the college, it presents the only con- crete organization for the discus- sion of all campus problems � among representatives of the un- dergraduates, faculty, administra- tion and alumnae. As a body, the Council has no executive power. Its aim, as stated in its 1919 constitution, is "to confer in regard to cooperative action upon matters of college in- terest through the various organi- zations represented." It may rec- ommend action, but in no way can it make a definite decision for any of its constituent groups. All subjects currently pertain- ing to the campus�past activities, future plans, and current prob- lems alike�are brought up for discussion at these meetings, pro- viding an opportunity for all groups to keep in touch with the life of all other parts of the col- lege community. In addition to the heads of the five main organizations, and the editor of the News, who form the Undergraduate Council, the Col- lege Council consists of the fol- lowing representatives: President of the College, the President of the Graduate Club, the President of ""the Alumnae Association, the presidents of the four classes, the president of the Non-Residents, the Head of the Halls, the Director of the Gymnasium, a faculty rep- resentative and the Director of Residence. Simmons ^otes Czarist Heritage OfSovietjSociety First in Lecture Series Given on Civilization Of Russia The history of the development of the autocratic Czarist regime as instrumental in an understand- ing of modern Russia, was discuss- ed by Dr. Ernest J. Simmons un- der the topic of Church and State. This lecture,-the first in a series of five on the subject of the Spirit of Russian Civilization and Thought, is part of a larger series given by the class of 1897, to bet- ter acquaint the students and the community with some of the non- western civilizations. Dr Simmons pointed out that the time lag of Russia at the end of the fifteenth and the begin- ning of the sixteenth centuries, when it turned its back ,on the civilizing influence of the West, explains a great deal of the further course of the history of this country. Because of its complete resist- ance to any forms of learning and intellectual activity, the Russian Church became a perfect tool for the state, explained Simmons. This Church, cut off from its cen- ter at Constantinople through many invasions, kept its power over the people because of the ig- norance of its priests, and its ac- tive hostility to Western learning. Dr. Simmons pointed out that from the tenth to the thirteenth centuries, Kiev, the capital of Rus- sia, had a brilliant intellectual culture, in contact with Greek and Western civilizations, but in the next two centuries, the Tartar hordes completely destroyed this culture. When the Russians fi- nally threw off the domination of the Mongols, Simmons emphasized that their civilization faced East and not West. Ivan, the Terrible, in the sixteenth century was the first ruler to open Russia to West- ern influence through commercial relations with England, and "in- itiated a movement that was to continue to Russia's advantage for the next two hundred years."

Traffic by Rosina Bateson '47 Women drivers may have been jeered at in the past, but times have changed. The Navy at least, seems to be all in favor of the idea as long as the lady chauffeur can distinguish port frdm starboard, and knows when to tack. With these qualifications, three Bryn Mawr licensed experts report to the Philadelphia Navy Yard at 8:00 one day a week where they are on call until 4:00 to convoy officers to their destinations. The secrecy of their missions causes the curious to wonder how much they can't and how much they won't tell. Evidently the dri- ver is not supposed to speak until spoken to, which according to Betty Gunderson, '46, inevitably happens sooner or later, perhaps because some technical aspects of the job present difficulty. Inadvertently parking in a com- mander's favorite space caused Libby Bagley, '48, a few uncom- fortable moments, and the prob- lem of navigating in Philadelphia is a tough one. Driving the wrong way on one way streets and be- coming hopelessly lost while look- ing for a certain Filbert Street is an all too common occupation. Authentic uniforms, the JJride and joy of the A. W. S. - Bryn Mawrites, have not only caused their friends to label them "street car conductors" but have incited much confusion outside the clois- tered walls. The first time she wore hers, two sailors stopped Alison Merrill, '45, and asked her whether she would take their pulse. They claimed they thought she was a cadet nurse. And now all three are determin- ed to get into a movie at the serv- icemens half-price, which makes one wonder if all their saluting hasn't gone to their heads. / - r

back of house, dallas
Charles D. Smith
Shipley's design uses built elements to frame desirable exterior spaces such as the main outdoor living room.
Because the site slopes down to the windows in back, views reveal primarily grass and low plantings, with no sign of the neighbors or back alley.
Courtesy Shipley Architects
If outdoor spaces are unappealing they go unused. So Dan Shipley, FAIA, made sure his renovations to this 1960s ranch house shaped its previously uninteresting, alley-facing backyard into a favorite hangout. The home's newly added master suite and detached carport with upper-level studio combine to create a quiet courtyard. Exterior hardscape seamlessly blends old and new, and a vocabulary of stucco and commercial storefront windows ensures additions read as such.
"The intent was for a complete departure that still forged a positive relationship with the main house," Shipley explains. "We saved the trees and started from scratch." Those trees add vertical movement and organic elements to Shipley's industrial design. And his subtle changes, such as offsetting the steel pergola, frame the homeowners' views of the trees.
Although the site's new structures consume some of the outdoor space, Shipley believes they visually enlarge it. "They make the whole yard seem bigger because you can feel the space moving around you, but you can't tell how big it is." The judges agreed, confirming Shipley's assertion that a house makes the best use of its site when it's designed with outdoor spaces in mind.

There are some books that are required reading for the serious tarot enthusiast, and this list represents my top five foundational books on tarot – books that will provide a solid historical, symbolic and esoteric foundation for any student.
1. Dogme et rituel de la haute magie (available in English as Transcendental Magic), by Éliphas Lévi (Alphonse-Louis Constant)
First published in 1855 as Dogme et rituel de la haute magie, it became a foundational text for the French occult revival. It was translated into English by Arthur Edward Waite in 1896 as Transcendental Magic, its Doctrine and Ritual and gained wider recognition among English-speaking occultists on both sides of the Atlantic.
Dogma et rituel became the first occult text to weave elemental, alchemical, astrological and planetary theory with kabbalah, the tarot and ceremonial magick, synthesizing the first wholly integrated system of magick. It served and continues to serve as the basis for much symbolism found in the Hermetic Order of the Golden Dawn, the Ordo Templi Orientis, and various contemporary mystery schools. While lacking in historical accuracy, and allowing for many liberties taken with its symbolic integrity, Dogma et rituel remains an important historical work for this reason. Continue reading

of course though, its also possible that its actually this one(him telling chi) was his plan all along. but I doubt that him would just let mimi get wasted in there(since you know, they could have killed her).
Who do you think Him would want to get mimi's/Him's essence? and who do you think the essence itself wants to have as a host, it made a heart when Minnie Mandy got pissed off and cut robot Mandy's head.
Either way whoever gets it will be a game changer, example if Jr. got the essence he would be an underworld god almost, and probably just as evil as Him and want to kill everyone.
Yea but somehow in some way Mandy always comes out on freaking top and just to be honest I just want to see her get her ass handed to her on a silver platter. Show of hands who else agrees with me?
HELL YA!!! The bitchy queen of the underworld deserves it more than anyone else, but she is protected by some of the most powerful people in the underworld. Grim, Jr., Mr. Negral, Pain, Skeleton Jack, and some others.

5 Better then GHWT and also awesome to boot!SiScott | 31/08/2009 | See all SiScott's reviews (98)Top 100 Games Reviewer Top 100 Mobile Reviewer Since this is what a lot of people will want to know; this game is better then GH:WT for a lot of reasons. Don't get me wrong though, GH is a good game, but its not as polished as RB2 at all.RB2 offers you far more music (just look at the DLC on the PSN and compare).Its offers you more options for customising and looking after your band.It offers more locations to play in.A more structured "world tour".More mature music (IMO) compared to GH's MTV stuff.It's a lot easier to just jump in and play at a party with your friends if you want to because you can just plug another instrument in and go.It may sound daft, but RB2 just feels like a more polished game which offers better choices, more customisation, more music and just feels more mature.GH:WT unfortunately just feels like the same old thing but with more instruments. It feels like it was rushed out.BUT.... the GH:WT instrument are far better then RB's and I would recommend getting those instead as they DO work with RB.
5 GET THIS NOW!RyanNIRE | 06/05/2009 | See all RyanNIRE's reviews (4)This game is top fun. I use the Guitar Hero World Tour Drums & Guitar instrumets for this and they work perfect. So you can have the best of both worlds. You can play songs such as Journeys Dont Stop Beleiving, and Baba O'reily by the who. This game ROCKS!
5 Rock Band 2Jacknicholls | 11/04/2009 | See all Jacknicholls's reviews (10)Rock Band 2Ok firstly I have both so I know what both games are like to play. There are many good and bad things about both games, for example...Rock Band 2 advantages, the tracks are far better then the ones on GH4 and there is a more wide range of them available to play. The tracks are also better to suit the drums and guitar.Rock Band 2 disadvantages, the drum kit is too loud when hit so you have to have the volume loud or have your headphones in.However, if you want to eradicate this problem Rock band have releases a new improved ION Drum Kit, and I just have to say that, that drum kit is amazing it is not loud when hit and just make the game more fun to play.Overall, Rock Band 2 is very enjoyable and fun to play; the playtime is very long so you will still be playing it for ages before completing it.Therefore, I am going to give this 10/10 as it is good to play but you would need the ION Drum kit to have with it as it makes it more fun. Great game!
5 great funbIT101 | 26/03/2009 | See all bIT101's reviews (12)I have GHWT which I love but I think this may even be better....too soon to tell for sure but the tracks I've played so far are very well put together, feel very musical and are just fun to play.The drumkit from GHWT works very well - in fact it seems to work better here than on WT as there is very little lag when playing impromptu bits! strange that. Orange cymbal is not used but with the way the drumming is shared out more evenly across the remaining pads i do not miss it.Overall a nicely polished game that I know i'm going to enjoy for a long while and would recommend to everyone.ps. DLC is much cheaper than for WT!
4 Good Tracksolionair1 | 24/03/2009 | See all olionair1's reviews (1)it all depends on what type of person you are like as not all of the tracks are good as there is a too large range of diferent types of rock

I ordered off the gluten free menu and told my server I was allergic. I came home and was sick. Will not eat there again.
5601 U.S. 41, Terre Haute, IN 47802
I got the Fajita Trio with chicken, steak and shrimp with corn tortillas. Didn't taste all that great kinda blah. But they had a decent GF menu.
3020 South Glenstone Avenue, Springfield, MO 65804
Last time I went, yrs ago, they had a pretty good selection & I didn't get sick. :)
4600 Chapel Hill Blvd, Durham, NC 27707
Server was immediately able to produce the food allergy friendly menu. Quite a few gluten-free options, although they are very clear to say that they cannot guarantee that the food meets the Gluten Free label criteria.
5501 R C Josh Birmingham Parkway, Charlotte, NC 28208
Great place to eat if you want a meal and not just a snack! Ask for the GF menu. They are very friendly and willing to answer questions. I ordered the Margherita Grilled Chicken Fresh Mex bowl without the tortilla strips. Glad I tried this place out!
They have a great selections of options to chose. I ordered grilled salmon . I didn't have any reaction. I would totally recommend them. The server asked if I have an allergy .
1718 Matt Murphy Road, Alice, TX 78332
Ate here twice, menu has lots of items and each item is clearly listed. Food was good and I didn't get sick.
12740 South Route 59, Plainfield, IL 60585
I go here a lot when visiting my father-in-law. Their menu includes some exclusions, but contains a lot of options. They don't have gfree bread items, but their rices are great and they've got corn tortillas vs flour so youcan take that risk if you want to. They will also serve naked fajitas so you don't need a wrap at all. Pretty good food at a decent price!
3691 Erie Blvd E, DeWitt, NY 13214
This restaurant has a gf menu. The staff is not knowledgeable about gluten free. As they state on their menu, the chance of cross contamination is possible and that is very true! I ordered the Fresh Mex bowl without tortilla strips and got the Fresh Mex bowl with about 4 tortilla strips mixed in with the rest of the food. I am sure the staff has not been trained in trying to prevent cross contamination. If you have a gluten sensitivity don't take a chance ! I won't eat here again.
12172 S Apopka Vineland Rd, Orlando, FL 32836
Ordered caesar salad w/o croutons and chicken (allergies to both) and potato soup. They forgot soup than brought it out afyer salad. I ate 1/2 soup only to find a tortilla strip (fried in same fryer as everything else) than ate 1/4 salad only to find shredded pieces of chicken. 2nd soup brought out by waitress and appeared ok.....2nd salad brought out by manager with croutons all over it. At this point asked if we could just leave as I was already contaminated x2. Already have migraine forming amongst other gi issues. If I could rate this a 0 I would. DO NOT GO HERE if you want to stay contaminate free on your vacation! They do not take it serious.
12172 S Apopka Vineland Rd, Orlando, FL 32836
The allergen menu is on the computer/kiosk on each table. I had plenty of options and a great meal.
5650 Almaden Expressway, San Jose, CA 95118
I bring my own chips and they are so awesome about letting me do so!!
204 Hamilton Crossing Dr, Alcoa, TN 37701
We lobe to eat at this Chili's. We have eaten their chips, salsa, fries, mashed potatoes, cinnamon apples, rice, beans, chicken, soup, steak, salad, fajitas, & bacon ranch chicken quesadilla made with corn shells instead of wheat with no problems or sickness. We go about 1-2 times a week! :)
855 E Kemper Rd, Springdale, OH 45246
Waitress told us that after working there two years, the manager informed her they are no longer providing any gluten free options. said it was due to new regulations. Boooo Chili's. Glad we packed a snack.
3710 Call Field Rd, Wichita Falls, TX 76308
Full menu of soup, salad and entrees.
3805 Fairchild Ave, Palm Beach Gardens, FL 33410
Excellent service and delicious gluten free choices. We will definitely be eating there again!
3870 Truxel Rd, Sacramento, CA 95834
Beware!!! Major cross contamination issues and GF ignorant staff.
33 Crystal Run Xing, Middletown, NY 10941
They have continuously screwed up my requests to not have any added spices or bread on my plate. Every time no one comes out to apologize except for the last time.
3795 Washtenaw Ave, Ann Arbor, MI 48104
This Chili's always accommodates us gf three in our family. Have eaten here numerous times and never get sick. I love the Monterey Chicken with loaded mashed potatoes (no gravy) and broccoli. There's a menu with salads and other options, too. The waiter today told me the gf food is made in a separate oven in a separate pan, with separate utensils. They're friendly and knowledgeable at this location.
3870 Truxel Rd, Sacramento, CA 95834
They have gluten-free menu that they change frequently. I like to go there for their unlimited soup and salad lunch deals! Staff is fairly knowledgeable about GF so I feel safe to eat there.
2227 Tanger Blvd, Gonzales, LA 70737
I ordered the Margarita Chicken with black beans and rice. It was delicious! Tortilla chips are usually served with this, but left off as they are fried in house in a fryer not dedicated to GF items. I didn't get sick, though I did take Glutenease before and activated charcoal afterwards... a precaution I always take when eating away from home. Our first waitress seemed confused by my questions, but shift changed while we were there and the waiter afterwards was more helpful. I'd give it a 4.5 if I could. (:
3820 U.S. 54, Osage Beach, MO 65065
You can print off the allergen menus from the website but they usually don't have a copy at their locations in my experience. I do like that they have menus for most common allergens (online) but the servers generally aren't familiar with them when you're there, and you have to talk to a manager to get any location-specific info. Decent variety and number of choices but food always comes out cold.
1430 109th Ave NE, Blaine, MN 55449
I experienced the same thing as a previous comment. After stating my GF needs clearly and ordering from gf menu, my steak plate came out with Texas toast piled on top. sent back and the same steak and Potato were moved to new plate and given to me. Asked manager why and the response was "does or matter?" I got a 3rd plate of food and proceeded to break out in hives at the table. called corporate and was given vouchers and advised to use them at another location. No thanks, won't be back and would have liked a refund of my money.
17801 International Boulevard D7, SeaTac, WA 98158
They were closed in the evening due to not enough flights using the terminal after noon. long walk for nothin!
6311 North Illinois Street, Fairview Heights, IL 62208
loved this place before diagnosed with celiac disease, and I still love that I have options here even after my world changed
1430 109th Ave NE, Blaine, MN 55449
asked for Gluten free menu. they had lots of options that were more than just salad
30 W Shoreline Dr, Long Beach, CA 90802
I appreciated the GF menu, which was on the little tablet that is located on each table. On the negative side they asked us if we wanted to order chips and guacamole, which I believe are not in a dedicated fryer.
20070 U.S. 59, Humble, TX 77338
They gave me a gf menu which was awesome but they totally messed up my order. I was specific on my order yet they gave me a regular order.
610 Commerce Boulevard, Fairless, PA 19030
Had a horrible experience at this location. When I asked the server whether an item on their menu was gf, he responded "it may be..." But didn't even offer to ask the manager or the chef in the back. I finally asked him to be 100% sure, but he never came back to answer my question. Service was horrible.
940 U.S. 1, Vero Beach, FL 32960
Excellent variety of gluten free options. Had the monetary chicken without bacon and steamed broccoli.
311 Red Cliffs Dr, St George, UT 84790
I always have had good luck at Chilis with my gluten free options. I had the Monterey chicken which was tasty. I also got some corn tortillas to dip in the salsa (their chips go in a common fryer and are not gluten free) they have a gluten free menu if you ask your server.
250 Silhavy Rd, Valparaiso, IN 46383
Great experience and they will let you make your own platter and order whatever you want from the gf menu....remind the waitress not to put gravy on mashed potatoes if you order them and to write gf on your order. Food was delicious!!
8296 26 Mile Rd, Shelby Township, MI 48316
It is all about the server and they way they communicate with the kitchen. Had several great visits but our last was a take out and the server just did not care. Bet she picked off the gluten strips after we complained and my girlfriend got ill.
1510 W Lane Rd, Machesney Park, IL 61115
Went there tonight. I'm already sick. Decent food, nice wait staff, not celiac friendly.
2521 Sardis Rd N, Charlotte, NC 28227
I had the steamed broccoli, rice, and steak and it was hands down absolutely AMAZING that was the most amazing steak I have ever tasted in my entire life! Plus there was no cross contamination!
790 South Colorado Boulevard, Glendale, CO 80246
A couple months ago they would have gotten a 5; however, Chili's has been remodling their restaurants. They now have a single fryer, so the chips share oil with everything else. They have taken the gluten free dessert options off the menu; they no longer list ice cream or shakes. They have some decent entrees, but there is not a single appetizer or dessert that is gluten free anymore. It is very frustrating when a restaurant that was quite good about gluten free options decides to remove so many choices.
1079 North National Road, Columbus, IN 47201
Ordered off the gluten free menu. I ordered ribs with loaded mashed potatoes no gravy. Gravy was under the bacon, cheese, and onions. The manager had no clue about what gluten free was and then was sarcastic when I was explaining to him.

Smoke and Mirrors: Obama DOE Fracked Gas Export Study Contractor's Tobacco Industry Roots
4:19 pm in Uncategorized by Steve Horn
Cross-Posted from DeSmogBlog
At first, it was kept secret for months, cryptically referred to only as an "unidentified third-party contractor."
Finally, in November 2012, Reuters revealed the name of the corporate consulting firm the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) hired to produce a study on the prospective economic impacts of liquefied natural gas (LNG) exports.
LNG is the super-chilled final product of gas obtained – predominatly in today's context – via the controversial hydraulic fracturing ("fracking") process taking place within shale deposits located throughout the U.S. This "prize" is shipped from the multitude of domestic shale basins in pipelines to various coastal LNG terminals, and then sent on LNG tankers to the global market.
The firm: National Economic Research Associates (NERA) Economic Consulting, has a long history of pushing for deregulation. Its claim to fame: the deregulation "studies" it publishes on behalf of the nuclear, coal, and oil/gas industry – and as it turns out, Big Tobacco, too.
Alfred E. Kahn, the late "Father of Deregulation," founded NERA in 1961 along with Irwin Stelzer, now a senior fellow and director of the right-wing Hudson Institute's Center for Economic Policy.
The NERA/Obama DOE LNG export economic impact study, released in early-December 2012, concluded that exporting the U.S. shale gas bounty is in the best economic interest of the country.
This conclusion drew metaphorical hisses from many analysts, including prominent shale gas market economist and former Wall Street investor Deborah Rogers, who now maintains the blog Energy Policy Forum. Her critique cut straight to the very foundation of the study itself, stating that "economic model[s] are only as good as their inputs."
She proceeded to explain,
In fact, it is neither difficult nor unusual for models to be designed to favor one outcome over another. In other words, models can be essentially reverse engineered. This is especially true when the models have been commissioned by industries that stand to gain significantly in monetary terms. Or government agencies which are perhaps pushing a political agenda.
Beyond its history working as a hired gun for the fossil fuel industry, NERA also has deeper historical roots producing "smoke and mirrors" studies on behalf of the tobacco industry. The long view of the firm's past is something NERA would likely rather see "go up in smoke," forever buried in the historical annals. But that would be a disservice to U.S. taxpayers since NERA continues to receive government contracts to produce tobacco-era disinformation to this day.

Contact Sports Desk: Call: 603-516-2949 / E-mail: firstname.lastname@example.com Huzzah! Essex Base Ball Club honors the game's early history
Sunday, April 28, 2013
PORTSMOUTH — The players don't wear gloves and an out can be recorded by catching the ball on a bounce. Those are two aspects of vintage "base ball" that differentiate it from modern baseball.
The newest team in the league is the Portsmouth Rockinghams, a tribute to the real-life team of the same name which played in the city from 1866 to 1867.The other three teams are the Lynn Live Oaks, the Lowell Base Ball Nine and the Newburyport Clamdiggers. The Essex Base Ball Club also sponsors a traveling team that will play next month at a showcase in Cooperstown, N.Y., where legend says Abner Doubleday invented the game in 1839. While all games are played in Newbury, Sheehy said the Rockinghams will make an appearance at Leary Field in Portsmouth in August. The club will also hold an open tryout/practice on May 4 at Strawbery Banke. If the term "vintage baseball" evokes images of Babe Ruth, Ty Cobb or Tris Speaker, think again. The time era of the Essex Base Ball Club even predates Honus Wagner, Cap Anson and Mordecai Centennial "Three-Finger" Brown. "Back in the Civil War they were playing baseball," Sheehy said. "What we do allows people to reconnect with the history of the game. Back in the Civil War they were playing baseball. You can see why the game changed and evolved, and see a part of the game many never knew existed."
"The ball's a little bit softer, but you get used to it," Sheehy said. "It's like catching a football. You have to get down on the ball. The fielder can catch the ball on one bounce for an out, and I personally think that gives our style of play a bit more of a scientific approach." And forget about picking up equipment for vintage base ball at a modern sporting-good store. Although some equipment for vintage base ball is available on the internet, most of the balls and bats used by the Essex Base Ball club are homemade. "It's called a lemon-peel baseball," Sheehy said. "I used to hand-make them. I make a lot of them that we sell, and there are some specialty retailers." The bats are different as well. Unlike a modern bat with a thin handle and thick barrel, vintage base ball uses heavy wood bats with a big barrel and a gradual taper toward the handle. The league has its own custom bat maker.
Sheehy has played baseball all his life, and his interest in the vintage version of the game stemmed from his time working at his college library.
Sheehy said most games move quickly, and a nine-inning game takes about 90 minutes to play. Most days the Essex Base Ball Club schedules doubleheaders. |

Senators eye regional panel over Charlotte airport
Published 12:00 am Thursday, February 21, 2013
RALEIGH (AP) Some North Carolina state senators are recommending control over Charlotte's airport shift from the city to a regional authority.
The Senate Rules Committee voted Wednesday for a measure to create a 13-member panel that would include appointments by leaders in counties adjoining Mecklenburg County, as well as by legislative leaders and the governor.
Bill sponsor Sen. Bob Rucho said Charlotte Douglas International Airport is an economic engine but needs the focus and expertise of an authority board as a rail freight project there gets under way.
Charlotte Mayor Anthony Foxx and the Charlotte City Council don't support the bill's passage. Foxx made his feelings known Wednesday morning while speaking to the Charlotte-Mecklenburg legislative delegation in Raleigh. Some lawmakers agree with the council that the proposal should be studied.

As a Detroit sports fan I love the Red Wings, and I'm excited to hear that the Red Wings will host the Maple Leafs for the 2013 NHL Winter Classic at Michigan Stadium.
The Red Wings posted about their first outdoor 'Winter Classic', which (no joke) was played at a maximum-security prison against the Marquette Prison Pirates in 1954.
There was nothing 'usual' about the Wings' visit. They were invited by a warden to play an outdoor game – the first in franchise history – inside the razor wire-topped stone walls and armed watchtowers of the state's most notorious maximum-security prison.Clearly, the game 58 years ago had a far different ambience then the last time the Wings played outdoors in the 2009 Winter Classic at Chicago's Wrigley Field or will when the Wings and Toronto Maple Leafs play at Michigan Stadium on New Year's Day.
"I was never concerned because I figured that I could take care of myself," said Wings legend Ted Lindsay, of playing against murderers, arsonists, bank robbers and assorted other degenerates. "But I felt very strongly from having been close to them in the summertime and mingling with them that there was no reason to be worried."
[…] To make things interesting, the Wings swapped a few players, trading goalie Terry Sawchuk, among others, and exchanged one set of defensemen, said Lindsay, who skated on the opposite wing as Howe with an inmate as their centerman.
Howe then skated the second half of the game with the prison's wear a No. 16 Pirates' jersey. [Read the full post…]
Here are some photos of the game from the post:
