At the moment, the episode has not come out yet. Though, alicorn Twilight has been something hinted at since season one, and as a writer I am excited to see change and appreciate the possibility of having some clarity on the mythology of Equestria. I highly doubt the show creators would break the friendship of the characters, nor would they make Twilight "Outlive" her friends. Remember who the target audience is: Young, impressionable little girls with dreams of being their own princess in some way. To see a character they are familiar with becoming a princess, not from being related to royalty but instead from her own hard work and diligence is inspiring for a young child.
We've seen many princesses who are given this role from the start. Our poor, Disney girls always pining for something more, sitting in their sheltered life longing for a prince or an adventure. Instead, we are seeing a young woman who has EARNED her place as a princess from her kindness, knowledge, and her experience with her friends.
This is a very healthy thing for young girls to see, and it's a rare sight, so I am very excited to see what this could do for those children.
People are panicking over something that has nothing to back up the panic.
I'll take these points people make against alicorn Twilight and rebuttal them here:
Twilight is becoming a god and will outlive her friends
Nowhere in the show has it been stated that Alicorns are gods. We also do not know a pony lifespan, or Cadence's lifespan. All we know is the 2 Princesses lived over 1,000 years, but Cadence we have witnessed growing up with Twilight, and she's also an Alicorn Princess. Plus, she married a unicorn. Why would she do that if she was going to outlive him?
Twilight's friendship will be over because of this!
Why? Why would her friends leave her over something like this? Why would she NOT be allowed to see them? What's stopping her friends from coming with her, or her deciding she wants to rule in Ponyville? We don't even know what she will be a princess of yet, or if she's replacing anyone or just being given a new role. Also, no one ever said you have to lose your friends just because you moved away or got a better job. True friends find a way to stick together no matter what, even if their thousands of miles or even oceans apart.
Also, surely she can't take this new role by herself. Her friends can be there to support her, and pursue their own destinies and dreams as well.
Hasbro is making her a princess just to make more toys!
Well, why is this a bad thing? Don't Bronies like to collect the toys? Havn't the toys been getting a bit stale and repetitive lately? So, we have a new princess toy. Hasbro is a toy company, My Little Pony has always been a toy franchise. The whole point of the show has ALWAYS been to market toys, but they are taking a new approach to it by actually giving the show life and thought and some darned good quality! When Rarity was given butterfly wings, it was there so they could release Butterfly Wing ponies. No one complained about this. Crystal Empire released a new set of sparkly toys. No one complained about this. Everything in the show has been to promote the toys, nothing has changed. They even made a White Celestia for us because people wanted her accurate, and they did so.
I have faith that the writers will put some logic and good lore behind this whole thing, and will take care of it, just as they took care of 'Butterfly' ponies and 'Crystal' ponies, and even the Wedding sets.
For collectors, Alicorn Twilight is a fresh new toy to have on the shelf, and she's honestly not a bad design. (Well, her dress is a bit silly
Twilight Alicorn will ruin the show!
It's not the end. As a princess, it opens a whole new WORLD of possibilities we never had before! We've been in Ponyville for 3 seasons, shouldn't it be fair to give the show a chance to take a new direction? Rather than lessons of friendship, we can learn lessons of responsibility, and explore the greater world of Equestria. Think about it, if she becomes a Princess, she would need to become familiar with the world around her, and her friends can still come with her and help her.
Being a princess does NOT end a story, in opens a new page. They already said there will be a season 4, and I want to see more based on the mythology and society of Equestria. And Twilight being a princess is a potential gateway to that whole world!
Well, if she becomes an Alicorn it's not fair that her friends don't!
Not everyone in a circle of friends is going to become famous or achieve greatness at the same time. It's illogical and highly unlikely. Another thing, what would her friends really have to gain from being alicorns? Twilight is training her magic, this has been her destiny as the Princess's protege from the start of her lessons. Her friends do not have these same goals.
In fact, Twilight becoming an Alicorn can even aid her friends in reaching their own dreams. Rainbow Dash is already on her way to being a Wonderbolt, and they seem to reside in Canterlot.
Rarity's dresses became noticed in Canterlot, and she's always wanted to live there with the culture and fashion. Her friend being a princess opens a whole new world of fashion possibilities for her.
Applejack was given a high responsibility as head of the family when she was given the task of putting together the family reunion. She's content with her life on the farm, and has no reason to need to be an alicorn. But her friend being a princess could help provide more funding for her farm, and might bring ponies in from other towns wanting to try their food.
Fluttershy is content with her animals, and Pinkie is just
Pinkie. They are fine with who they are, they wont have anything to gain from being Alicorn Princesses.
So, really, the only one that seems to fit that role is Twilight Sparkle, and she's honestly earned it after all her hard work.
In Closing, I just want to say that everyone should calm down, think of the good possibilities this could open, and put a little more trust in the writers. We don't know where this could go. We don't know if it will be a permanent change, or a short gag. We don't know how the episode will end or what Twilight chooses. We don't know what could be in store for season 4.
The unknown is scary, yes. It's the most common thing we fear. But the community is what truly makes Bronies, NOT the show, and as a community we should be ready to embrace change and continue the way we always have.
With love and toleration.

"Women have never been equal partners in this society," Costantino said. They have always been looked on as property, he added. "This is a culture that has never wanted to confront its legacy of violence against women."
Colombian cocaine passes through Guatemala
Members of Mara Salvatrucha 13 and Mara 18, two of the largest gangs in Central America, use rape as a way to gain a reputation. During territory disputes, such as the one in Marisole's neighborhood, they will often target women as a method of instilling fear by which to control areas.
"By dropping someone off without her blouse on after they'd raped her, they are saying, 'We control this neighborhood and you better not cross us,'" says Harry E. Vanden, a researcher who specializes in Central American gangs and has served as an expert witness in cases against gang members.
Territorial control is of particular importance to gangs these days. Mexico's war on drugs has led cartels to set up operations in Guatemala, through which some 80 percent of Colombian cocaine passes on its way north, US officials have estimated. And gangs are vying for supremacy to win lucrative relationships with drug traffickers.
"They use rape as a way to take vengeance on a family and to keep their neighborhood in line," Dr. Vanden says.
Sexual violence became so acute in recent years that Doctors Without Borders started its only mission in Latin America dedicated to treating sex victims in Guatemala City. And Nov. 25, the United Nations will open its Latin America chapter of its UNiTE to End Violence Against Women campaign in Guatemala.

We examined the role of common genetic variation in schizophrenia in a genome-wide association study of substantial size: a stage 1 discovery sample of 21,856 individuals of European ancestry and a stage 2 replication sample of 29,839 independent subjects. The combined stage 1 and 2 analysis yielded genome-wide significant associations with schizophrenia for seven loci, five of which are new (1p21.3, 2q32.3, 8p23.2, 8q21.3 and 10q24.32-q24.33) and two of which have been previously implicated (6p21.32-p22.1 and 18q21.2). The strongest new finding (P = 1.6 × 10(-11)) was with rs1625579 within an intron of a putative primary transcript for MIR137 (microRNA 137), a known regulator of neuronal development. Four other schizophrenia loci achieving genome-wide significance contain predicted targets of MIR137, suggesting MIR137-mediated dysregulation as a previously unknown etiologic mechanism in schizophrenia. In a joint analysis with a bipolar disorder sample (16,374 affected individuals and 14,044 controls), three loci reached genome-wide significance: CACNA1C (rs4765905, P = 7.0 × 10(-9)), ANK3 (rs10994359, P = 2.5 × 10(-8)) and the ITIH3-ITIH4 region (rs2239547, P = 7.8 × 10(-9)).

A couple of days ago my friend Wayne Glapion had posted a very disturbing picture on his Facebook page. The picture was of the President with hunting season below his image. It was drawn by a child and was being displayed in the 8th grade hall at Boyet Jr. High, in Slidell, Louisiana.
I messaged him and asked if he would tell me the story because I wanted to post it on my Open Salon blog. What follows is his account of what is happening in Slidell as a result of him and his sister seeing those pictures.
Wayne was visiting with his mother and his niece was eating breakfast with her as she does everyday. Wayne asked her about school and her grades, and she told him that school was okay and that her grades were good, but that she didn't like the pictures in the 8th grade hallway. So he pressed her to tell him about the pictures, and she began describing pictures drawn by students that depicted the President with a bullet hole in his head, and the above mentioned hunting season one. With that he asked if she had told her parents about the pictures and she said, "No." He told her to go next door and let them know about the pictures.
Wayne and his sister Karen Stampley then determined to go to the school. They went directly to the 8th grade hallway and began taking pictures of the questionable "artwork." At this point a teacher sees them and gets a walkie talkie to call for security. Wayne tells me he told her, "While you're at it call CNN, MSNBC, and the local radio station WBOK!" They finished taking the pictures and headed for the principals office.
Mr. Stubbs, the principal, told them that he had seen the posters and he felt it was just students freely expressing themselves. At that point Karen pulled a picture up and asked if the picture was acceptable to him, and he replied, "No I didn't see that one!" Then she pulled up another and again he agreed it wasn't appropriate, finally she pulled up the picture depicting the President with a bullethole in the head. Mr. Stubbs assured them they would be taken down.
Wayne was enraged by the whole thing, he turned to ask if students could freely express themselves by replacing the President's likeness with say one of a teacher. The principal said, " that would not be tolerated!" Karen and Wayne were perplexed because these pictures had been displayed for 5 days and while a teacher's likeness would not have been tolerated that of the President didn't seem to get a reaction from any of the staff.
He writes me that in the time they were at the school, which is probably 20 minutes, they are informed the pictures have been removed. As they were leaving the school a secretary stopped them and stated, "You came to inform us and we've removed them let this be the end of it!" Karen assured her, "This is not the end of it, it is the beginning!"
Mr. Stubbs called the Stampleys on Friday of last week to inform them that the child who had the poster with the bullethole in President Obama's head had told his parents it was graffitied . Then this past Monday he called again to say the child's parents had called and stated that markers were left out and must have bled on the poster. None of these explanations were adequate enough for Karen who decided to take the matter to the St. Tammany school superintendent, Trey Folse.
Karen and her husband Rae also went to their pastor and contacted James Davis president of the Greater Covington NAACP chapter, all of whom have met with the school superintendent. A full scale investigation of all parties involved has been launched and it is anticipated it will take approximately 3 weeks for it to be completed. The family is reserving further remarks on the matter until that time.
One of the reasons I worked to strengthen the Republican Party in a heavily Democratic state like Massachusetts is that as a State House reporter in Boston I saw the problems for a society when one party has so much power. And throughout much of the United States -- the "Solid South" particularly -- one mindset and set of opinions becomes so overwhelming that it creates the false impression that there is only "Truth" and no other truth is possible.
When everyone you know says that President Obama is a radical socialist, or a danger to America -- or evil -- you begin to believe it no matter what the facts might be. And that is why an 8th grade boy can come to think it's OK to paint a picture of the President with a hole in his head. Why would anyone object?

Even if I do not always come away from a Carla Kelly book thinking it is one of the best books I have ever read, I always come away satisfied with a good story. I also have to watch myself in grading because I have read so many books by Ms. Kelly that I expect her books to be good and if they fall short in any way from some of her previous novels, I do not want to judge the book more harshly than it deserves. I hope I do this book justice. So with that being said, Softly Falling is another great story by Carla Kelly and her fans will want to pick this book up.
moreI like ghosts in novels. Whether they are helping the heroine solve an age old mystery or playing matchmaker to the clueless living, I think ghosts can add a lot to a tale. This story, narrated in part by a ghost and in part by a living woman, explores the connections between strangers and how someone we don�t even know can be the most significant person in our lives.

TD Garden, Boston, MA
Rajon Rondo, Kevin Garnett, Paul Pierce all have double-doubles in Celts' win
BOSTON -- Boston coach Doc Rivers wasn't hiding it. He hopes his team shows up ready Sunday to play a key game.
Rajon Rondo had 20 points and 14 assists to lead the Celtics to a 104-88 victory over the Washington Wizards on Friday night, setting up a showdown with Miami for the Eastern Conference's second spot.
"We control our own destiny for the second seed now," Rivers said. "We've got to win our next two games."
More From ESPNBoston.com
The Celtics are playing with a purpose in trying to secure the East's No. 2 seed, and it finally showed in Friday's win over the Wizards, Chris Forsberg writes. Story
But when he was asked if he was concerned with how his team would play, he didn't hesitate.
"Yes," he said. "If we had taken care of business this would have been decided. When we play well, we can beat anybody. When we play poorly, we can get beat by anybody. We'll see. Logically, yes, but hopefully."
Paul Pierce (22 points and 12 rebounds) and Kevin Garnett (15 and 11) also had double-doubles for Boston, which remains tied with Miami after the Heat, who host the Celtics on Sunday, beat Charlotte 112-103.
Ray Allen had 13 points, but was just 1-for-6 from 3-point range.
The Celtics never trailed and had a fairly easy time as both teams hardly dug-in defensively for most of the first three quarters.
"We're trying to push for the second seed. It's a good win," Pierce said. "We've kind of struggled in the second end of back-to-backs."
Boston was coming off a 97-81 loss at Chicago on Thursday.
Andray Blatche led the Wizards with 20 points and 10 rebounds, John Wall scored 20 and Jordan Crawford 19.
Rondo had as many assists as the Wizards.
"One thing they don't do is give you many fastbreak points," Washington coach Flip Saunders said of Boston's defense. "They're one of the worst teams at offensive rebounding because when the ball goes up, they send people back. They'd rather give you the defensive rebound and not give up the open floor opportunities."
Boston, which shot 59 percent and led by three at the half, scored the first seven points of the third quarter to open a double-digit lead, 66-56, on Garnett's three-point play.
Most of the lead was due to Rondo controlling the tempo.
"He does a great job of getting into the paint and holding onto the ball," Wall said. "He's got trust in his teammates."
Pierce agreed.
"When he pushes the ball, that makes us better," he said.
Garnett, trailing on a fastbreak, was grabbed as he went up for a shot. The ball fell through as he was falling to the floor, and Garnett then pounded his chest while lying on the floor, bringing loud cheers from a relatively listless crowd. The Celtics pushed it to 79-67 on Rondo's spinning drive in the lane, but Washington scored the next seven points.
The Celtics led 83-75 after three quarters.
Washington did close it to 87-83 on Crawford's break-away dunk with a little over 7 minutes to play, but Rondo, Allen and Pierce followed with baskets to push Boston up by 10 with 3 1/2 minutes left.
Boston then tightened up defensively and the Wizards never threatened the rest of the way.
Boston started the game quickly, opening a 12-point lead midway into the opening quarter before the Wizards closed it to 28-23 after one.
The Celtics had opened a nine-point edge on Pierce's free throw early in the second, but the Wizards whittled it to 59-56 at halftime.
Game notes
Boston F-C Jermaine O'Neal was given the night off to rest with the team playing four games in five days. He played the last five after missing 36 due to a sore left knee. ... Boston G Delonte West was whistled for a pair of technicals by referee Josh Tiven and ejected in the second quarter. "I've got a feeling he said the right thing," Rivers said. ... Blatche averaged 27.5 points and 14 rebounds in his previous four games. ... The Wizards fell to 0-9 on the road against Atlantic Division teams, but they are 7-1 at home.

When should air ducts be cleaned?
Q: How do I know if my air ducts need to be cleaned?
Deepika C., Bridgewater, N.J.
A: Your cold-air return vents will offer a clue. If they're coated with a buildup of pet hair, dust and other debris, it's time to at least consider having your ducts cleaned.
Perhaps the more pertinent question is whether air duct cleaning is worth the expense and trouble.
Experts tell our team that consumers should expect to pay $300 to $450 to have all ductwork in a 2,000-square-foot home cleaned. It's also important to spend some time finding a reliable contractor to clean your ducts. Some unscrupulous companies may offer extremely low prices to get a foot in your door. Beware of any service provider who uses scare tactics and immediately tries to upsell you into having mold removed.
A bad duct-cleaning job is worse than no cleaning at all, because it can raise particles or even break part of an HVAC system. But experts say proper cleaning can boost the quality of your indoor air and may increase your HVAC unit's efficiency.
Before hiring an air duct cleaner, follow these tips, which our team gathered from highly rated service providers and consumers:
• Hire people who are certified through the National Air Duct Cleaners Association. You want someone who has invested in appropriate equipment and training.• Make sure air duct cleaning isn't just an add-on service for the company.
• Consider a cleaner who offers high-quality before-and-after photos of your ducts. Or, some cleaners may open sections of ductwork before and after the job so you can see what you're paying for.
• Ask how the company will do the work. Reputable companies generally use a truck-mounted power vacuum, not portable vacuums. Also, thorough cleaning requires that ductwork be accessed at different points. Access points are typically a 4- to 10-inch round or square hole, patched with new sheet metal.
• Ask for and expect to get a written guarantee.
• Confirm that the company you hire is appropriately licensed, bonded and insured.
Consider having ducts cleaned once every two to seven years, depending on whether you and your household have severe allergies or lots of pets.

Faced with a need, the University of Kentucky football team didn't have to look far to find a solution to a thinning depth chart at linebacker.
Instead, the Wildcats plucked South Oldham linebacker Connor John from Crestwood to join the team next season.
John, an honorable mention all-state player and co-MVP of the Border Bowl, announced his commitment to UK roughly two weeks ago. John, who confirmed he would play linebacker at UK, committed as a preferred walk-on.

For the fifth time in a row, Oldham County's wrestling team has risen to the occasion when it comes to winning a regional championship.
Buoyed by six regional champions and one runner-up, the Colonels head into the state meet this weekend with a lot of momentum.
"It's something that's special," Oldham County coach Aaron Riordan said of the win.
The county's three wrestling programs are hoping some final tune-ups will help propel them to better performances at the regional meet.
Both North Oldham and Oldham County's wrestling teams finished fourth in their class at State Duals two weeks ago in Union County. The non-sanctioned KHSAA event takes place two weeks before the state's event in Lexington.

I love adventure time. that being said, alot of other people love adventure time too now with that being said, the sickest, coolest thing for a champ that riot could do is: Finn, the Human call me what you want, but those who just shivered at the thought of playing as Finn, with some abilities using Jake, will agree with me that having Finn as an addition to this game wud be the greatest thing in the world. I dont know what his features would be, whether hed be a support, mid or whatever (but i see him more as a top champ), but i hope that people would see this and say "wow, i love this kid for thinking about this. I too want a Finn the human champ" and carry on and spread the news and the idea as well as create some abilities for him and bla bla bla. i dont care about credibility, just carry this idea all the way to riot and i will be the happiest man on earth, for a couple of seconds before someone else becomes happier than me . seriously tho....

Horse Care Press Release
PHOENIX, Ariz. -- Healthy hooves are an absolute necessity for any type of horse. For this reason, horse owners rely on the craftsmanship and wisdom of their farriers. The American Farrier's Association (AFA) has recently partnered with Farnam Companies, Inc. to officially recognize the company's Horseshoer's Secret® Hoof Supplement. This alliance will help expose more horse owners to the supplement and its benefits, as well as educate them on the importance of regular hoof care.
"Working with a certified farrier is essential for proper hoof care maintenance. It's also helpful to add an effective hoof supplement, such as Farnam's Horseshoer's Secret, to the horse's diet," said Bryan Quinsey, executive director of the AFA. "Farnam provides valuable products to the horse community, and the AFA is pleased to recommend this proven hoof supplement to our clients."
Horseshoer's Secret® is scientifically designed to provide optimum nutrition for healthy hooves. The unique pellet formula contains only pure and digestible ingredients, including biotin, complete protein, mineral complexes, key amino acids, yeast culture and omega-3 fatty acids. These nutrients work together to help prevent cracked hooves, strengthen hoof walls, and restore normal hoof growth.
"The AFA helps to maintain the highest standards in the farrier industry," said Chris Jacobi, president of Farnam's Horse Products Division. "We're excited that our Horseshoer's Secret brand has been recommended by this top professional group, which provides an important service to horses and their owners."
Since 1971, the American Farrier's Association has been promoting the art and science of the profession, and serving as a representative of farriery interests within the international horse world. The association encourages standards of proper hoof care through the education of farriers, horse owners and other horse enthusiasts. They act as an advocate for both the horse and farrier in relations with veterinarians, trainers, horse owners, breed and sport associations, and state and federal government agencies.
For additional information about the American Farrier's Association, call (859) 233-7411 or go to www.NoFootNoHorse.com on the Internet.

On the final day of the year, we can look back on another gorgeous year in the Dismal Swamp Conservation Area in central New Jersey. Surrounded by sprawl and suburbia in the towns of Edison, South Plainfield, and Metuchen, outsiders would hardly expect a place called the Dismal Swamp to be a nature sanctuary. Yet it is a true oasis for wildlife in a sea of overdevelopment. And over the course of a year, I got to spend much of every day within "The Diz", observing and experiencing the more subtle changes that accompany the turning of the seasons.
Throughout 2010, memorable wildlife sightings were backed with the appreciation of some new patterns revealing themselves in the animals of the Dismal Swamp. Beavers, a less obvious encounter in years past, were brazen and wanton in their simultaneous destruction and construction this fall, blitzing our streamside woods and scarcely leaving any sapling unshorn.
The beavers' thoroughfare, the Bound Brook, was a wonder to behold. The stream's sheer power of erosion undercut massive trees and overran its banks during heavy rains throughout the spring. Yet the summer-long drought reduced the stream to little more than a steady trickle. Visually, the stream's reflective powers grew in late autumn in direct proportion to the leaves changing and then falling. Each day brought a dramatically new view from the same vantage point, until a rich reflection of thick green forest had transformed into a stark mirror of angular, jutting tree trunks and branches. Minimalist, yet no less stunning.
White-tailed deer continued their expansion in the Dismal Swamp this year, for better and for worse. It is rare for me to not see healthy herds of 3 or 4 or far more each early morning and late afternoon on the meadows. That abundance, unfortunately, continues its onslaught on the dwindling understory of young saplings, which stand little chance to grow tall with so many deer around.
Our other notable regular visitors held true to form throughout 2010, showing up enjoyably and often: snapping turtles and painted turtles, bullfrogs, wild turkey broods, and, of course, groups of scouts, schoolkids, and seniors touring the trails or leading volunteer cleanups during the seasonal times of year.
Nesting birds included killdeer, red-tailed hawks, barn swallows, tufted titmice, and a number of sparrows. In fact, October produced a spectacular fallout of sparrows noted by birders Mike McGraw and Scott Quitel. McGraw also discovered a black racer snake den hidden in the hollows of The Diz.
At the Triple C Ranch, Turtle Pond and the Bound Brook offered their usual daily visits by great blue herons, great egrets, green herons, spotted sandpiper, and wood ducks. The double-crested cormorant — though common along the New Jersey coast — was a surprise overnight guest in early October here on this tiny spring-fed pond. The woods and meadows hosted plenty of cedar waxwings, American kestrels, northern harriers, and Cooper's hawks, along with massive numbers of red-winged blackbirds, rusty blackbirds, and common grackles, while northern flickers and brown creepers surveyed the tree trunks.
Our first Dismal Swamp ruby-throated hummingbirds spent the entire summer and September at the Triple C Ranch garden, enjoying the sugar water filling their specialized feeders. Another newcomer was the pair of ravens I spotted tumbling in the air near a housing development, of all places, early in the spring.
One change that was less welcome is not a surprising one for anyone reading New Jersey's conservation headlines for the past few years. We still saw bats at dusk, though not quite as regularly as years past — making each appearance that much more appreciated as their numbers across New Jersey and the entire northeastern United States continue to be decimated by white-nose syndrome.
Now, another new year begins. I can't wait to see what it brings to the Dismal Swamp.

Imagine Dashiell Hammett and Samuel Beckett in a drunken slapfight.
Three crooks of questionable ability face a seemingly never-ending stream of challenges. Two bothersome hostages complicate life in the secret hideout. How much chloroform is too much chloroform? Whose tooth is this? What is roaming the air ducts? Creepy, hilarious, and thoroughly whatthehell?!, Heist is an exquisite little bit of absurdist crime noir. Yes, if Dashiell Hammett and Samuel Beckett got into a drunken slap fight and then wrote a play, it would be HEIST.
Coming soon!
Performance Gallery is a Cincinnati-based, collaborative of theatre artists existing to produce and promote challenging works of theatre. We are often outlandish, sometimes profound and strive to be unpredictable. Founded in 2002, we have produced a varying amount of works per year in a variety of spaces, including original plays (Chasing the Wolf '04, Gilgamesh in Uruk, G.I. in Iraq, '06), some revamped classics (The Maids, '03, Woyzeck, '05) and ten widely different, original offerings at our favorite hangout, the Cincinnati Fringe Festival. We had a successful remount of fricative (our 2008 Cincy Fringe offering) at IndyFringe in August 2011 and took it to the inaugural Atlanta Fringe in May 2012. Collaborations include Through the Eyes of a Crow, with Cincinnati-based Pones, Inc, which played in a variety of venues around Cincinnati and Northern Kentucky in 2011 and Dead Can Dance with Cincinnati's Exhale Dance Tribe for Halloween 2012 and 2013. We also manage an amazing drama-based literacy program for Cincinnati Public Schools called Books In Action which delivers two actors into forty-eight Head Start pre-school rooms once every month during the school year.

Matt from Denver, CO | 7/23/2011 10:19 PM
Really nice club with good feel. Tend to fade longer clubs and this one holds a line really nice. For the price, I think you would be hard pressed to find a nicer performing hybrid. Really nice shaft with great feel. Can move the ball left to right but tends to fly pretty straight. All in all, a really good club. Tend to not like hybrids and this is the first I've come across that performs very much like an Iron.
GW from Muskego, WI | 7/13/2011 12:37 AM
It didn't work for me. I hit a Burner Plus 4 iron farther.
Kurt Francis from Kingfisher, OK | 5/13/2011 5:00 AM
I have the 3iron-19degree. I am a higher swing speed player and opted to get the r flex cause the shaft felt pretty stiff, the axivcore shaft is excellent, nice high flight, I get about 245yrds out of this club.. I am able to hit a fade or a draw when needed but it goes straight as an arrow normally. I liked this club so much I don't have a 3 or 5 wood anymore. Adams hybrids are truly #1.
Jow from Ohio | 3/24/2010 9:38 PM
I have the 19 degree version. It is very forgiving on off-center hits, and I find it impossible to hit a draw or fade with it, which some high handicappers might like for their hooks and slices. The only thing I don't like is how it feels on mishits. It feels too similar to center hits which feels really good by the way. I would recommend this club to any kind of golfer.

Release Date:
October 16, 2012
At only 11 years old, crooner Jackie Evancho wowed audiences with her considerable pipes on her 2010 debut EP, O Holy Night. Released just a few months after her first full-length outing, Dream of Me, Heavenly Christmas revisits the yuletide splendor of O Holy Night. At ten songs, it manages to expand her seasonal repertoire, and while the set leans ****** standard Christmas fare ("The First Noel," "O Come All Ye Faithful," "O Little Town of Bethlehem," and "White Christmas"), Evancho's vocals are impressive as always, and the arrangements are mostly tasteful, with only occasional moments of bombast that threaten to wash the pint-sized soprano out to sea. ~ James Christopher Monger, Rovi
- Genre: Holiday, Classical, Vocal
- Subgenre: Pop/Rock, Vocal/Standards, Holiday, Pop Classical
- Category Pop Idol, Christmas, Classical Crossover, Vocal Pop

text: 9-10 The Final Hours Crew Chief Donny Bennett Donny Bennett was Crew Chief for American Airlines. On the morning of September 11, 2001, he was assigned to manage Flight 11, leaving Bostons Logan airport and headed for Los Angeles. He was in charge of a 4 member ground crew responsible for getting the baggage on board and the plane serviced. At the time American Airlines had a strict on-time policy: If luggage was not on board 10 min before the flight, it would be held till the next flight and shipped to the destination late. Someone from the bag room presented Donny with 2 late bags. Donny made the decision to refuse the bags and have the flight leave on time. These 2 bags were checked in under the name of Mohammad Atta. They were returned to the baggage holding area and waited for the next flight. Hijackers Late Arrival In 2001 Michael Tuohey was a customer service representative for US Airways airlines. He had worked in the airline industry for 15 years. On the morning of September 11th he was helping customers at the first class counter of US Airways. There was an early morning flight headed to Boston at 6AM. The clock was counting down to 15 minutes before the flight when the two hijackers approached the check in counter. Michael pulled up their ticket record: Mohammad Atta & Alomari. They seemed like nice fellas so he tagged their two bags and gave them boarding passes. He remembers the older one appearing grumpy and out of sorts. The younger Alomari seemed happy and almost silly. Like Yesterday Mr. Delgado was the head bartender and mixologist at the Greatest Bar on Earth, part of the Windows On the World complex atop the North Tower. Mr. Delgado worked until 2 a.m. the night of Sept 10th before returning home to New Jersey. Deeply Rooted Mr. Delgado's feelings for Windows On The World are as deeply authentic and personal as his professional knowledge of the place is encyclopedic. It is where he met his wife, a Sommelier for Windows on the World's unparalleled wine cellar. Although she had left the restaurant to raise their first child, in the earliest pre-dawn hours of September 11th, the small family found themselves together at the foot of the towers looking up with pride in a magnificent tableau, never realizing it would be their last sight of the place that meant so much to them, or the human devastation to come. George Delgado would recognize 800 faces among the victims of the attacks. Precious Last Moments Mr. Evan Kuz was visiting New York City for the first time from Canada. As the dark storm rolled in on the late afternoon of Sept 10th, he took this amazing photo from the Ferry near Liberty Island. He later had coffee at Windows On the World that evening. It's something he'll carry with him for the rest of the life he says. A Brief Visit Mr. David Farquhar was a photographer on a tour of the New England coast and was in New York on September 10th. Eerie Foresight As a storm rolled in late that afternoon, Mr. Farquhar made his way to the observation deck of the South Tower to capture some dramatic images the day before the tragedy. Mr. Wharton, World Trade Center General Manager Mr. Wharton was the General Manager of the World Trade Center. On the morning of Sept 11th he had breakfast at Windows On the World restaurant at the top of the North Tower. He barely caught the last elevator down before the first plane hit, trapping all those behind him. This is Mr. Wharton's first on camera interview. Tower at Sunrise "And we were probably in the lobby no more than 15 or 20 seconds when the plane hit, and I found out later, um, that we were on the last elevator to leave Windows on the World and come down to the lobby," reflects Mr. Wharton. 6 Mr. Staehle Mr. Staehle is an internationally known installation artist. He was conducting an art exhibit the week of September 11th that included a camera that took a photo of the Manhattan skyline every four seconds. He is one of only two people to have captured the first plane impact with the North tower.
