Groundbreaking Held for New Higher Education Facility in Robertson County
Submitted on March 01, 2010 at 9:28 AM
A groundbreaking ceremony was held Saturday, February 27 for the new Robertson County-Springfield Learning Center. Dozens of people turned out to witness the event. The facility will offer classes and programs from Volunteer State Community College and Austin Peay State University. Vol State will manage the facility with an on-site director and staff.
It's a unique educational partnership that marks years of planning and development. Robertson County, the City of Springfield, and NorthCrest Medical Center worked together to provide funding for the center. Residents approved the funding in a referendum vote. Land owners Billy and Jean Batson donated the property for the site. The 25,000 square foot facility will be two stories tall and feature classrooms, labs, offices, a library and bookstore. Completion of the building is expected in the summer of 2011. Community leaders are currently leading a process to name the new building and raise more funds to help support the facility.

Lance Armstrong's name is coming out of cycling's record books.
Armstrong was stripped of his seven Tour de France titles and banned for life by cycling's governing body Monday following a report from the U.S. Anti-Doping Agency that accused him of leading a massive doping program on his teams.
UCI (Also known as ICU) President Pat McQuaid announced that the federation accepted the USADA's report on Armstrong and would not appeal to the Court of Arbitration for Sport.
In Paris, Tour director Christian Prudhomme said at a news conference he no longer considers Armstrong the seven-time champion of the race. Prudhomme called UCI's decision "totally logical" and said "Lance Armstrong is no longer the winner of the Tour de France from 1999-2005."

Recorded: Tuesday, January 31, 2006
In June 2005, the U.S. Supreme Court ruled in Kelo v. New London that local governments may force property owners to sell out and to make way for private economic development, even if the property is not blighted. In response, many states have passed legislation and proposed amendments to their state constitutions to block this unprecedented government assault on the rights of property owners.

(c) Issuance and Purchase of Obligations.—
(1) Issuance.— To meet the expenses required to be assumed under subsection (b), the Secretary of Transportation shall issue obligations to the Secretary of the Treasury. The Secretary of Transportation, with the approval of the Secretary of the Treasury, shall prescribe the form, denomination, maturity, and other terms (except the interest rate) of the obligations.

The purposes for which securities may be issued under that chapter are extended to include the purchase of obligations under this subsection. A redemption or purchase of the obligations by the Secretary of the Treasury is a public debt transaction of the Government.
(d) Source of Funds for Reimbursement.— Reimbursement of the Secretary of Transportation for costs incurred under this section shall be made with appropriated funds rather than through cancellation of notes.
(e) Appropriations.—
(1) Authorization.— Each fiscal year, there is authorized to be appropriated an amount sufficient to reimburse the Secretary of Transportation for the costs incurred under this section, including administrative expenses and the principal and interest due on obligations issued to the Secretary of the Treasury.

Below is a summary of the major fundamental and technical factors we consider when determining our overall recommendation of INAP shares. It is provided in order to give you a deeper understanding of our rating methodology as well as to paint a more complete picture of a stock's strengths and weaknesses. It is important to note, however, that these factors only tell part of the story. To gain an even more comprehensive understanding of our stance on the stock, these factors must be assessed in combination with the stock's valuation. Please refer to the Financial Analysis page for further information.
|2.0 out of 5 stars
Measures the growth of both the company's income statement and cash flow. On this factor, INAP has a growth score better than 30% of the stocks we rate.
|Total Return
|0.5 out of 5 stars
Measures the historical price movement of the stock. The stock performance of this company ranks at the bottom of the companies we cover.
|1.0 out of 5 stars
Measures the strength and historic growth of a company's return on invested capital. The company has generated more income per dollar of capital than 10% of the companies we review.
|Price Volatility
|0.5 out of 5 stars
Measures the volatility of the company's stock price historically. The stock is more volatile than nearly all of the stocks we monitor.
|1.5 out of 5 stars
Measures the solvency of the company based on several ratios. The company is more solvent than 20% of the companies we analyze.
|0.5 out of 5 stars
Measures dividend yield and payouts to shareholders. This company pays no dividends.
TheStreet Ratings' stock model projects a stock's total return potential over a 12-month period including both price appreciation and dividends. Our Buy, Hold or Sell ratings designate how we expect these stocks to perform against a general benchmark of the equities market and interest rates. While our model is quantitative, it utilizes both subjective and objective elements. For instance, subjective elements include expected equities market returns, future interest rates, implied industry outlook and forecasted company earnings. Objective elements include volatility of past operating revenues, financial strength, and company cash flows.
Our model guages the relationship between risk and reward in several ways, including: the pricing drawdown as ocmpared to potential profit volatility, i.e. how much one is willing to risk in order to earn profits; the level of acceptable volatility for highly performing stocks; the current valuation as compared to projected earnings growth; and the financial strength of the underlying company as compared to its stock's valuation as compared to its stock's performance. These and many more derived observations are then combined, ranked, weighted, and scenario-tested to create a more complete analysis. The result is a systematic and disciplined method of selecting stocks.

The Scopes Trial vs. 'Inherit the Wind'
The movie's inaccuracies have perpetuated stereotypes
Many Americans know the Scopes trial not from history books but from "Inherit the Wind," an excellent work of drama and one of the most popular plays of the postwar era. "Inherit the Wind" opened on Broadway in 1955, with Paul Muni playing Clarence Darrow, Ed Begley as William Jennings Bryan, and the young Tony Randall as H.L. Mencken. It was a long-running hit. The well-known United Artists movie followed in 1960, with Spencer Tracy, Frederick March, and Gene Kelly in the lead roles; made-for-TV versions appeared in 1988 and 1999, with George C. Scott winning an Emmy for his role in the 1999 production. Along the way, "Inherit the Wind" became one of the most-produced plays in high school theater, meaning many millions of boys and girls were exposed to it in their teens. It's safe to say that 99% of viewers of the play and movie assume that what they are seeing is veracious history. They are not.
"Inherit the Wind" relentlessly distorts what happened in Dayton, Tenn., in 1925. The authors, Jerome Lawrence and Robert Lee, originally asserted that "Inherit the Wind" should not be viewed as historically accurate: They changed Darrow's name to "Henry Drummond" and Bryan's name to "Mathew Harrison Brady," saying this was to remind audiences that they were taking liberties with the actual event. But lines of dialogue from the actual Scopes trial are used in the play, and the marketing of the Broadway version of both movies worked heavily to create the suggestion that audiences were seeing the actuality of the event. Reviewing the movie opening in 1960, for example, The New York Times proclaimed, "A fascinating slice of American history brought brilliantly to the screen."
"Inherit the Wind" differs from the actual Scopes trial in ways minor, middling, and substantive. Many minor differences are theatrical license. "Inherit the Wind" begins with John Scopes languishing in jail for the crime of free thought; Scopes was never jailed, and in fact, volunteered to be prosecuted. (See main story
.) The play has William Jennings Bryan fall down dead in the courtroom just after the verdict and sentence are read; the real Bryan died five days after the trial's conclusion. Having a character die in court might be dismissed as a mere preposterous theatricality, of the sort found in many dramas and films. In this case, however, theatrical license adds the overloaded twist that God is striking Bryan down for being wrong about evolution.

WINCHESTER, Va. (WUSA9) -- Winchester officials say that a storm on Monday morning caused a gas leak, which led to the closure of the Apple Blossom Mall.
The mall's management says the mall should reopen at approximately 12:30 p.m., but the Charlotte Russe store will stay closed because it has roof damage.
The storm rolled in Winchester at approximately 8:30 a.m., say officials. Firefighters discovered that two air conditioning units on top of the building were damaged by the high winds and leaking natural gas. The mall was evacuated and closed.
At 11:30 a.m. the mall was being ventilated and the building inspector cleared the mall to reopen.

This is HIGH quality. Love that it sits below belly button. Covers everything on backside. Took off 1 star because size chart is off. You need to go down at least 1 size. I have now 2 with 1st short too big. Bought panty from well known Intimate store that was more expensive. This is priced well for the great quality. Don't hesitate to buy!!!

Residence Life
Residence Life
Living And Learning
Living on campus can be one of the best experiences of a college student's life. The focus of our residence life program is to complement one's formal classroom education by offering students the "total college experience" for personal growth and development.
There are several advantages to living on the UC campus:
- First of all, the new people you meet at orientation and throughout the year could be living right around the corner, right down the hall, or even in the same room.
- You also get the opportunity to live on your own perhaps for the first time.
- Perhaps most importantly, UC provides you with the chance to improve yourself intellectually, socially, and culturally through the experience of living with individuals from many different backgrounds. The friendships you make can often last a lifetime.
Upon moving into your residence hall, you will receive a key giving you access to the building and your individual room. For your safety, the halls are locked 24 hours a day, seven days a week. Campus Safety officers continuously patrol the campus, and an officer is posted inside most of the residence halls every night from 11:00 p.m. to 6:45 a.m.
Where To Get Help No matter what type of questions or concerns you may have, you can always find someone who can answer them for you. A resident assistant (RA) is located on each floor, is easily approachable, and has received extensive training to help students work through problems they may have. Also available to answer questions are the area coordinators (AC) of each residence hall, or you can contact the Office of Residence Life, located in North Hall, which is open weekdays from 8:30 a.m. to 5:00 p.m.
Get Involved
After you get settled in, you may want to become involved with the Residence Hall Association (RHA). RHA is the governance body for residential students. RHA is student run and is in charge of planning campus wide events, listening and addressing student concerns that may arise in the residence halls.

The annual Power Of The Purse luncheon had some funny star power Wednesday to encourage people to donate to Pitt County non-profits benefiting women.
The crowd at the Greenville Convention Center laughed it up with Vicki Lawrence, a comedienne, actress and singer who started her career with Carol Burnett in 1967. She later had her own show called "Mama's Family." Wednesday morning she spoke to more than 1,000 women in Greenville. Since the Women For Women Power Of The Purse group's inception in 2006, they have raised money to help close to 900 women in Pitt County with more than $345,000 in grant money.
"It's one of the nicest things that women do. I don't think men do this. Do men do this? But women are just great getting together and laughing about our predicament and helping each other. I love going out and doing it," said Lawrence Wednesday in Greenville.

Hollywood loves its adaptations, and a bunch of them are in the works.
First, Ron Howard has signed on to direct The Emperor's Children, which Noah Baumbach (The Squid and the Whale) adapted from Claire Messud's 2006 novel. The story is about New York Ivy League grads angst-ridden over their approaching 30s.
Bruce Beresford (Driving Miss Daisy) will be directing an adaptation of Mao's Last Dancer, the 2003 autobiography of Chinese ballet dancer Li Cunxin who defected to the West in 1981. Jan Sardi (Shine) wrote the adaption, which will begin filming in February.
And what better choice than Rob Marshall (Chicago) to direct Nine, Michael Tolkin's (The Player) adaption of the 1982 Broadway musical of the same name? The story is based on the Fellini film 8 1/2.
And finally, director of the breakthrough Irish indie rock-musical Once, John Carney, will be making his US studio debut. Carney has signed to direct Town House, a comedy about a hermit who maintains his lifestyle by selling off memorabilia left to him by his dead rock star father. It was adapted from Tish Cohen's 2007 novel by screenwriter Doug Wright (Quills).

Good luck! I'm sure it will be a humdinger!
I've had an ongoing project now for some time to map out the various regions of my Eriond map, which is the basis of a homebrew campaign setting I'm working on. Well I decided that it was high time I actually did a world map (the previous map really only featured the known lands of a single continent).
Should be awesome, dude. Looking forward to it.
Very cool. As someone who really liked your Eriond map, I will certainly follow this WIP. Looking forward to how this one's turning out. If it's anywhere near as good as the Eriond map is, it will rock...hard
I'm trapped in Darkness,
Still I reach out for the Stars
Thanks for your support guys. I have a feeling this one might take a while to complete but I'm really excited to begin working on it.
Nice landshape. Keep on!
Well here's an update. I've got the lions share of the work on the land-scape done. Next up I think I'm going to work on creating a sea shelf.
Looks great, man. That kidney bean lake in the west looks sort of plain, tho. Not in need of any fixing or anything, per se.
If the radiance of a thousand suns was to burst at once into the sky, that would be like the splendor of the Mighty One...I am become Death, the Shatterer of worlds.
-J. Robert Oppenheimer (father of the atom bomb) alluding to The Bhagavad Gita (Chapter 11, Verse 32)
My Maps ~ My Brushes ~ My Tutorials ~ My Challenge Maps
Yeah, think you have something there A, but after all the work I've put into this map I'm not sure it would really pay to go back and fix it now. Also, I just realized that when I flattened the last WIP I had an extra color adjustment layer visible that I had meant to to turn off. Here's the map without that layer on (the colors should be more vibrant, and the sea less dark).
I can see what the big A is saying about the lakes, but I think it's damn stunning. Wish I could do maps like this.

|Naruto Shippūden Episode #271
|Road to Ninja: Naruto the Movie
|Appears in
|Anime, Movie
|Voice Actors
|Ninja Rank
Kizashi Haruno (春野キザシ, Haruno Kizashi) is a shinobi of Konohagakure and the husband of Mebuki and father of Sakura Haruno.
Kizashi is a very jovial and charismatic individual, often times joking with those around him which at times exasperates his wife, Mebuki. He was shown to enjoy making puns all the time. The dynamics between the two, can easily overwhelm others, leading Ino to even call them "intense as usual".
Kizashi is a kind-faced man with blue eyes and dull-pink hair which is styled into the shape of a cherry blossom. He also has sideburns which flow into his angular moustache. He wears a dark, loose-fitting kimono-shirt with brown shorts and a pair of simple slippers.
Kizashi's alternate self was also seen wearing the standard attire of the Konoha-nin, inclusive of flak jacket. His hair is also a much darker colour.
Part II
Road to Sakura
Main article: Road to Sakura
After coming home from a sale across town with his wife, Kizashi finds Ino Yamanaka and a seemingly confused Sakura. Seeing her parents, Sakura runs off in tears. Kizashi finds the pendant Sakura dropped and returns it to her, wondering what had happened to his daughter. When returning the pendant, he notes that he had a similar one to her and shows it to Sakura. Sakura then tearfully embraced both of her parents.
It is later revealed that that Sakura was from an alternate world and her necklace was given to her by her father before her parents left to go into battle.
Naruto 6: Road to Ninja
In the alternate world's history, Kizashi became the Fourth Hokage instead of Minato Namikaze, prior to his untimely death alongside his wife Mebuki that left Sakura of that dimension an orphan.
- Kizashi can be translated as "a sign" or "an omen".
- Though he did not originate from the manga, Kizashi's character and designs were created by Masashi Kishimoto himself, due to being personally involved in the making of Naruto 6: Road to Ninja.
- In Naruto 6: Road to Ninja, Minato wasn't appointed as Konoha's Fourth Hokage, instead it was Sakura's father, Kizashi.
- However, mimicking the original timeline, tragedy that befell both Konoha's Fourth Hokage Minato and Kushina, Kizashi and his wife, despite having spent an unspecified amount of years of their life with their daughter, unlike Minato or Kushina, ultimately died during a battle, leaving Sakura an orphan.

RVIA eying open house week as new date for Louisville show
ELKHART — For the next two years, the National RV Trade Show will be held in Louisville, Ky., the week after Thanksgiving but starting in 2014, the dates of the industry-wide event could be changed.
The Recreation Vehicle Industry Association's board of directors has given preliminary approval to a recommendation that the Louisville show move to a late September/early October time frame beginning in 2014. A final decision could come as early as July after the association learns whether the Kentucky Exposition Center can accommodate the new date and hears the advice from an industry ad hoc committee that is also examining the issue.
Gregg Fore, chairman of the RVIA, said the change was being considered to help alleviate an increasingly busy fall calendar. Retail shows in Pennsylvania and California along with the Recreation Vehicle Dealers Association's convention and the RVIA trade show cost dealers, manufacturers and suppliers time and money.
Moreover, Fore pointed out, the expense has become even greater because of the recession and because the industry is smaller with fewer dealers, less manufacturers and fewer employees.
"I think there's a general agreement that there can be some combination that works over time that doesn't interfere with anybody's business plans," he said.
The new date being considered for the Louisville show is about the same time as the annual RV Open House Week in Elkhart County. This loosely organized event by RV manufacturers attracts thousands of dealers from across the United States and Canada to the area. It sprouted, in part, because manufacturers have trouble fulfilling orders from the Louisville show in time for the early retail shows in January.
Pete Liegl, president and CEO of Forest River, kick-started the idea of an open house and as other manufacturers have piled on, it has grown into a major showcase. Some dealers have acknowledged they get what they need at the open houses so they are skipping Louisville.
When the national event is held depends on the dealers, Liegl said. Whether the retailers want December, June or some other time, that is when the trade show should be held.
However, a change in the Louisville dates does not necessarily mean an end to the open houses. Liegl again noted if the dealers want the Elkhart County event to continue, it will. That is good news for the local economy since the product shows pump money into area hotels, restaurants and other businesses. For the 2011 event, Forest River alone spent an estimated $1 million on hotel rooms, food and liquor for its dealers.
Emphasizing the open house is for the RV retailers, Liegl said he would resist any effort by the RVIA to ban the event altogether.
"They can go to hell," he said. "If I want to have a product show, I'll have a product show. The RVIA is not going to tell me what I can and can't do."
Fore downplayed any conflict with the open houses, noting the manufacturers are part of the decision-making process and will still be able to run their businesses as they see best.
"It's not going to stop manufacturers from bringing people to look at products," he said. "The open house thing is not new. Industry people have been bringing dealers to town to look at units since the industry started. This is not a new phenomenon."
Despite the success of the open houses, Liegl does not believe they will ever trump the industry's trade show. While Forest River and Thor Industries do well at the local event, the other manufacturers do not reap as great a benefit.
In addition, he does not expect Forest River to ever pull out of the RVIA event.
"I anticipate we'll always be in the Louisville show," Liegl said.

- "Lady Stark, you may survive us yet."
- ―Tyrion Lannister to Sansa Stark
Sansa Stark, legally Sansa Lannister, is a major character in the first, second and third seasons. She is played by starring cast member Sophie Turner and debuts in the series premiere. She adopted a direwolf she named "Lady", but Lady was executed following a dispute between Joffrey and Sansa's sister, Arya. Sansa was once betrothed to King Joffrey Baratheon. She was initially thrilled at her betrothal, but has since experienced Joffrey's cruelty and watched the execution of her father, Eddard Stark, on his orders. Joffrey has since set aside his betrothal to Sansa in favor of Margaery Tyrell, but she remains a captive of House Lannister in King's Landing. Sansa is now the lady wife of Lord Tyrion Lannister, following an arranged marriage by his father, Tywin.
Sansa Stark is the eldest daughter and second child of Lady Catelyn and Lord Eddard Stark. Eddard is the head of House Stark and Lord Paramount of the North. The North is one of the constituent regions of the Seven Kingdoms and House Stark is one of the Great Houses of the realm. House Stark rules the region from their seat of Winterfell and Eddard also holds the titles of Lord of Winterfell and the Warden of the North to King Robert Baratheon.[1]
Sansa was born and raised at Winterfell. She has three brothers (Robb, Bran and Rickon), a half-brother (Jon Snow) and a younger sister (Arya). Sansa enjoys proper "lady-like" pursuits, and is good at sewing, embroidering, poetry, and music. She dreams of being a regal Queen like Cersei Lannister, and that just like in the epic songs she will meet her knight in shining armor. She has the Tully coloring as do most of her siblings, and Lady Catelyn thinks Sansa will be even more beautiful than she was when she was younger. She is often seen in contrast with her sister, Arya Stark who has neither her looks nor her accomplishments in feminine activities and comportment.[2]
Season 1
When her brothers find an orphaned litter of direwolf pups, Sansa adopts the gentlest one and names her Lady. When King Robert Baratheon visits Winterfell to offer Sansa's father the position of Hand of the King, he also offers to betrothe his son Joffrey to Sansa. Sansa, who is very taken with the handsome young prince, thinks this is a splendid notion. She longs for the excitement of the capital and begs her parents to agree to the match, until they do so. Eddard takes the handship and decides to take his daughters with him to the capital.[3]
At the Crossroads Inn on the kingsroad, Joffrey offers to walk Sansa along the riverbank after the disquieting experience of meeting Ser Ilyn Payne, the king's headsman. They find Arya practicing her swordwork with Mycah, a butcher's son, and Joffrey starts to hurt him for acting above his station and striking a girl of noble blood. Arya strikes Joffrey, and when the prince retaliates, Arya's direwolf, Nymeria, intervenes and bites Joffrey's arm. Arya and Mycah flee and Joffrey cries before snapping at Sansa to get him help. Sansa is taken before King Robert and his retainers and asked to corroborate Joffrey's claim, that he was the victim of an unprovoked attack. Arya tells her to tell the truth, but to Arya's fury, Sansa is worried about upsetting her relationship with Joffrey, so she says that it happened too fast for her to know. Queen Cersei orders that Nymeria be executed for harming Joffrey, but when the direwolf cannot be found she suggests that Lady be substituted for her. Eddard, furious with Robert for agreeing to this, carries out the execution himself, to Sansa's anger.[4]
Arriving in King's Landing, Sansa's enmity towards Arya and her father continues. Eddard fails to mollify Sansa by buying her a doll as she hasn't played with dolls for years. Eddard explains to Arya that Sansa could not defy Joffrey or go against his version of events if she wished to maintain his goodwill in marriage.[5]
Septa Mordane shows Sansa the throne room of the Red Keep as part of a history lesson, Sansa realizes that her grandfather and uncle were killed there by the Mad King. Sansa is fearful that she will not be able to give Joffrey sons, only daughters like her friend Jeyne Poole's mother, but Mordane doesn't think this likely.[6]
At the Hand's tournament, Sansa witnesses Ser Gregor Clegane killing Ser Hugh of the Vale during a joust. Littlefinger tells Sansa about how Gregor burned the face of his brother, Sandor, when they were very young. Sandor is Joffrey's bodyguard and Littlefinger advises against relaying the story to Sandor.[6]
Sansa is given a flower by Ser Loras Tyrell, the famous Knight of the Flowers, before his tilt with Ser Gregor Clegane. He gives the flower to Sansa, but he is looking at Prince Renly who is sitting behind her. She witnesses him defeating Gregor, and Gregor's subsequent furious attack on him, which is halted only by the intervention of Sandor. She joins the smallfolk in applauding Sandor's actions.[7]
Sansa and Septa Mordane are embroidering, and Sansa begins speaking very rudely to her, as time at court around Cersei is changing her for the worse. Joffrey visits Sansa and gives her a present. He also apologizes for the incident on the Kingsroad and kisses her, winning back her favor. Sansa is later told by her father that he is sending her and Arya back to Winterfell, and her betrothal to Joffrey is to be broken. Sansa refuses to accept this: she tells them that she loves Joffrey, she will be his queen, and give him beautiful blonde-haired children. He will be a great king and a golden lion. When Arya points out that he isn't a lion, but a stag like his father, King Robert, Sansa angrily says Joffrey is nothing like him. This inadvertently leads Eddard to realize that Joffrey and his siblings are not King Robert's true children. Eddard tells Sansa and Arya that they are returning to Winterfell, over Sansa's furious protests.[8] King Robert dies following a hunting accident and Eddard attempts to reveal the truth about Joffrey to prevent him taking the throne. Eddard is betrayed by Littlefinger, his guards are killed and he is arrested.[9]
Eddard's retinue at the Red Keep is slaughtered by House Lannister guardsmen led by Sandor. Mordane moves to confront the Lannister soldiers, while telling Sansa to lock herself in their rooms. Sansa is taken into custody by Sandor and brought to Cersei. She pleads for her father's cause, insisting that a mistake has been made, and proclaiming her own loyalty. Cersei says that she will believe Sansa is loyal on the condition that Sansa write to Robb asking him to bend the knee and swear fealty to Joffrey. The letter is unsuccessful and Robb instead raises an army and marches south to relieve the Riverlands from the Lannister armies. Sansa again pleads for mercy and for her father's life, this time in front of the entire court, and Joffrey agrees to give him mercy if he admits his wrongdoing and acknowledges Joffrey as the true king. Sansa says that she is sure he will.[10]
At his trial, Eddard Stark acknowledges his "crimes" and swears loyalty to King Joffrey Baratheon. To Sansa's utter shock and horror, Joffrey nevertheless orders Eddard's decapitation. Sansa is prevented from interfering and her father is killed before her eyes.[11]
Days later, Sansa is in court and watches as Joffrey orders the removal of the tongue of the singer Marillion, who has written a song unfavorable to the royal family. Joffrey then takes Sansa to the traitor's walkway, where the severed heads of executed criminals are mounted on spikes along the castle walls. He draws Sansa's attention to the severed heads of her father and Septa Mordane. Sansa refuses to give Joffrey the satisfaction of seeing her upset and shows no emotional response. Joffrey tells her that executing Eddard was showing mercy, as he gave him a quick death, and he suggests that he will mount her brother Robb's head on the wall after defeating him. Sansa retorts that maybe Robb will take Joffrey's head instead. Furious, Joffrey has Ser Meryn Trant of the Kingsguard strike her. Joffrey tells Sansa that they are still to be married. Sansa contemplates pushing Joffrey off the walkway, but is subtly stopped by Sandor. After Joffrey and Meryn leave, Sandor gives her a cloth to attend to her cut lip and tells her that she will be needing it again.[12]
Season 2
- Main: Sansa Stark Season 2
Sansa remains a captive of Queen Regent Cersei Lannister in King's Landing. She has learned to feign loyalty to King Joffrey Baratheon to avoid further abuse from him. She attends Joffrey's name day tournament and convinces him to spare Ser Dontos Hollard when he attends drunk.[13]
Sansa is forced to sit through the Lannisters discussing killing her brother Robb Stark over dinner. She vents her frustration on her new handmaid Shae.[14] When Robb wins a crushing victory at the Battle of Oxcross, Joffrey responds by having Sansa stripped and beaten in front of the court. Tyrion Lannister intervenes and offers to end her engagement to Joffrey, but she retains her facade of loyalty.[15]
Sansa attends the departure of Princess Myrcella Baratheon for Dorne . She stands up to Joffrey when he mocks his brother Tommen for crying. As the royal party returns to the Red Keep Joffrey is struck by excrement thrown by the angry crowd. Joffrey causes a city wide riot by demanding that his guards kill all of the smallfolk present. Sansa is separated from the rest of the group and almost raped by a group of commoners. She is rescued by Sandor Clegane. Shae treats her injuries and Sansa tries to rationalize being attacked when she hates Joffrey more than anyone. Shae warns her not to say such things and to trust no-one.[16]
Sansa has a nightmare that she is being stabbed by her attackers from the riots. She wakes up to find her mattress bloodied by the onset of her first period. Shae tries to help her conceal the evidence as it means she is ready to bear Joffrey's children. The Hound catches them and (reluctantly) informs the Queen. Cersei gives Sansa advice on motherhood, reassuring her that she will love her children if not her husband. She tells Sansa that the more people you love, the weaker you are.[17]
Stannis Baratheon sails his fleet into the bay outside King's Landing triggering the Battle of the Blackwater. Sansa is summoned to the throne room to say goodbye to Joffrey. He forces her to kiss his new sword and she subtly undermines his bravado. She then takes refuge in Maegor's Holdfast with Shae; Cersei is hosting the women of the court there. She torments Sansa during the battle, mocking her faith, telling her that Ser Ilyn Payne is present to kill her if the walls are breached and drunkenly telling her to use her sexuality as a weapon. Cersei eventually storms out, believing the battle lost. Sansa attempts to keep the morale of the women up with prayers and singing. Shae tells Sansa to return to her chambers and bar her door to keep her safe should Stannis breach the keep. Sansa finds Sandor waiting for her inside. He tells her that he is going north and offers to take her with him. She is reluctant to leave the potential safety of being rescued by Stannis but he warns her that all men are killers. Stannis's force is ultimately defeated by a host of House Lannister and House Tyrell reinforcements led by Tywin Lannister.[18]
Sansa attends court as Joffrey doles out rewards. Tywin is named Savior of the City and Hand of the King, Petyr Baelish is made Lord of Harrenhal and Loras Tyrell is allowed to name a favor from the king. He asks Joffrey to marry his sister Margaery. Joffrey asks Margaery if this is what she wants while Cersei looks at Sansa deviously. Joffrey says that he would be honored to return Margaery's love, but regrets that he is promised to Sansa. Cersei suggests Joffrey set Sansa aside because of her family's treachery. Joffrey accepts the betrothal. Joffrey states that he will "Love you from this day, until my last day" - the same endearment he once offered Sansa.[8] Sansa turns away, feigning sadness but allowing herself laughter once she has privacy. Her revelry is halted by Petyr consoling her; she pretends to be upset. Petyr crushes her hopes of freedom and warns her that her situation has worsened, as she will no longer have the token protection of becoming Joffrey's queen but will remain his captive. Petyr tells her that she reminds him of her mother and vows to help her return home. Sansa is reluctant to trust him and maintains her facade.[19]
Season 3
Baelish tells Sansa of a new role that he has taken which will allow him to leave King's Landing, and offers to smuggle her out of the city. She is hesitant about the idea. Margaery and her grandmother Olenna Tyrell invite her to lunch in the gardens, where they ask her about Joffrey. Sansa is initially restrained and polite, but soon admits that he is a "monster".
While she prays outside under guard, Margaery comes and talks to her, telling her that they should see Highgarden, the Tyrell home, together. Sansa replies that Cersei would never allow her to leave King's Landing. Margaery tells her that she could be a wife to Loras Tyrell, to which Sansa is overjoyed. They go to see Loras during his swordplay practice, during which she admires him.
Loras and Sansa spend more time together in the following weeks, though Sansa is far more enthusiastic about their impending marriage then he is. Loras admits he's always wanted a big wedding with lots of guests, fancy food and a good tournament, though he only seems to remember that there will be a bride when Sansa gives him an expectant look. One subject where they do find common ground is their shared hatred of King's Landing, with Loras saying that King's Landing is "the most terrible place there is".
The plan to wed Sansa to Loras is scuppered when Cersei Lannister grows increasingly suspicious of the Tyrells and learns of the proposed marriage through Petyr Baelish, which prompts Tywin Lannister to arrange for his Cersei and Tyrion to marry Loras and Sansa respectively, to curb the ambitions of House Tyrell and to bolster the ties between the Lannisters and two of the other great houses of the Seven Kingdoms.
As she watches Littlefinger's ship depart for the Vale of Arryn , Sansa is devastated as she realises that both of her chances to leave King's Landing have gone, and she has no choice but to marry into the family that killed her father. However, Tyrion promises to Sansa that he will not mistreat her, and she concedes that there are worse Lannisters she could be wed to.
The wedding itself is an embarassing affair. Joffrey smugly escorts Sansa to the altar in place of her father and removes the stool upon which Tyrion was to stand on to cloak Sansa in Lannister colours as part of the ceremony. Tyrion then spends the wedding feast becoming steadily more drunk while Joffrey threatens to forcibly impregnate Sansa. Joffrey is insistent on going ahead with the bedding ceremony despite his uncle's protestations, but Tyrion threatens that Joffrey will "be fucking [his] own bride with a wooden cock" if he doesn't let it drop. Tywin defuses the situation by dispensing with the bedding ceremony, and Tyrion takes Sansa out of the room before Joffrey can take it any further.
Tyrion refuses to consummate their marriage, saying he will wait until she wants him to, even if that means never. Shae is pleased to see that Sansa's bedsheets are unstained the morning after the wedding, as it means that Sansa remains a virgin. Sansa and her new husband actually get along rather well, sharing jokes and a common enemy in Joffrey. However, their cordial relationship suffers a crushing blow when Sansa receives news of the death of her mother and brother at the Red Wedding , an event orchestrated by Tyrion's father.

Family tree
In the books
In A Song of Ice and Fire, Sansa is very much a lady, with a keen interest in music, poetry, singing and dancing and other "ladylike" pursuits such as embroidery. She has a romantic notion of handsome princes and knights fighting honorably for love and loyalty. She is sharply contrasted with her far less idealistic younger sister, Arya.
Due to a time jump which was originally planned in the books but later dropped, Sansa is only 11 years old when the narrative begins. Author George R.R. Martin himself has said that he would have aged-up the younger characters had he initially known he would abandoned the time-jump. Therefore, in the TV series' timeline, all of the younger characters including Sansa have been aged up two years from the books. Thus, Sansa is 13 years old in Season 1, and 14 years old in Season 2. Keeping in mind that in medieval times the age of maturity was lower than it is today, this younger age in the books isn't quite as unusual as it sounds, but due to the abandoned time jump this still led to some discrepancies. For example, Joffrey's torment of Sansa doesn't have quite the same inherent sexual tension to it in the books, because they're both two years younger.
A subplot in the books which is only somewhat alluded to in the TV series is that in her desperation, Sansa starts latching onto the idea of Sandor Clegane as her protector from Joffrey or a potential source of an escape attempt.
In the books Sansa is shown to be culpable for her father's arrest by revealing his plans to Queen Cersei. She acts in an attempt to have Cersei command Lord Eddard to remain in King's Landing so that Sansa could marry Joffrey.
Sansa technically gained the title of "princess" when her brother Robb was declared the new King in the North. While her brothers Bran and Rickon use the title of "prince" among the Northerners at Winterfell, Sansa's storyline involves her being held as a prisoner at King Joffrey's court in King's Landing. The Lannisters refuse to acknowledge the North's claims of independence so they don't refer to Sansa as "princess". Meanwhile, Sansa is in fear for her life, subject to frequent beatings at the hands of the Kingsguard at Joffrey's whim, so she doesn't refer to herself as "princess" for fear of angering her captors. Thus her title is rarely if ever invoked (unless Robb and Catelyn in the Northern camp are discussing her captivity).
According to the TV series official pronunciation guide developed for the cast and crew, "Sansa" is pronounced "SAHN-suh" (i.e. between "San-suh" and "Sohn-suh").

"Don't Try and Look Younger, Just Look as Wonderful as You Can"
Yesterday I went to visit one of my favorite ladies on the Upper West Side. I was thrilled to see Lynn Dell as she has been traveling and taking some time off after breaking her knee. Lynn looked as glamorous as ever in her all black ensemble, accented beautifully with gold jewelry. Since breaking her knee she hasn't had as much time or energy to fix her hair back like she prefers. Lynn told me that people have been commenting that she looks so much younger with her hair down, but she says, "I don't want to look younger. I just want to look as wonderful as I can." This seems to be a common sentiment amongst the Advanced Style Ladies and a very important statement considering our culture's obsession with youth and trying to stay young. Check out the video above to hear what Lynn has to say about trying to look younger.

Good Style Depends on Good Presentation. Not on How Much Money You Spend
Presentation is everything to the Advanced Style ladies. Mary looks great even on the way home from grocery shopping near union square. 100 year old Ruth dresses everyday, even to check the mail. She says, "You never know who you will run into along the way." I can't stress enough that style is not about how much money you have, but how you put yourself together. These women may look like they spend a lot of money on clothes, but most of them recycle what is in their wardrobes or shop at vintage and thrift stores. The key to their style is presentation.

The Advanced Style Ladies Take Over Lincoln Center for Fashion Week
During this season's fashion week some of the Advanced Style ladies and I braved the cold and rainy weather to film a TV spot for a Canadian fashion program. They were all such great sports, putting on their finest warm weather clothes for an hour's worth of outdoor interviews and shots. When I asked the group if they were okay they announced, " Of course we are, we're New Yorkers." They weren't going to allow a little bad weather spoil their fun. During our filming journalists and bloggers crowded around to get a glimpse of these glamorous ladies. We had a great afternoon and I can't wait to see the finished product.

Elegance at Eighty
Jacquie looks incredible not even considering her age, but at 81 she's even more of an inspiration for us all to continue to dress up and feel great. She designed this gorgeous striped dress out of material she found at a fabric store. I love getting together with her and hearing about all of her adventures, dancing at The Apollo Theater, and listening to her plans for the future.Over the past 80 years Jacquie Tajah Murdock has never stopped dancing and never stopped dressing.

80 Year Old Rita Has Over 70 Pairs of Outrageous Glasses
I met 81 year old Rita on a trip to Seattle over the weekend. She walked into the Great Harvest Bakery in Ballard wearing the most interesting pair of alien-eyed sunglasses. I was very intrigued and need to know more about her. I waited until she was finished purchasing her loaves and then asked if I could take her photo for my style blog, based in New York City. She was delighted and told me, "I have over 70 pairs of glasses and I wear a different pair everyday. Meet me here tomorrow and I will bring a whole bag full." I knew that I couldn't miss out on this opportunity!
The next day I met Rita outside the bakery wearing an even more spectacular pair of multicolored sunglasses. She showed me a grocery bag full of glasses that I could choose to photograph her in. We had a great time talking and taking photos and she told me the story of why she wears such outrageous glasses.
Rita says that her tastes are usually pretty simple. She had lost her small vintage sunglasses somewhere in the neighborhood, so her friend Marty accompanied her to a local mall to buy another pair. Marty picked out a big, fun, over-sized pair of sunglasses for Rita to wear and she picked out a smaller, more simple pair. Rita decided to purchase them both and wore the big pair to a recovery meeting sometime that week. Everyone in the group went wild for Rita's big shades. People started sending her huge, outrageous pairs of sunglasses from all over the world, resulting in her collection of over 70 pairs. Rita told me that although she wouldn't normally dress outrageously, she feels that the sunglasses make me people happy. When I asked her how she felt about them she replied, " They aren't really my style, but now I don't want to hurt anyone's feelings by not wearing the pair they bought for me. Now I feel lost without them. They have become my trademark."
I loved meeting this wonderfully eccentric and charming woman and hope you enjoy her story and of course her amazing collecting of glasses.

In Memory of Zelda Kaplan
Yesterday 95 year old Zelda Kaplan passed away after collapsing, front row, at the Joanna Mastroianni Fashion Show. Zelda lived an amazing life.When we would get together she would always start by telling me how lucky she had been to have so many great opportunities. She traveled the world and collected hand woven fabrics and worked as an activist to bring the issue of female mutilation into discussion.
Zelda had a zest for life. She loved dancing and was a regular at New York's hottest clubs where she could be spotted dancing the night away in her brightly colored suits and matching hats. When I met Zelda the first thing she asked me was if I liked to dance. When it came to style she told me, "If you look well, then you heighten the atmosphere of a place, but remember to always be yourself. You can't turn marble into silk." Zelda definitely heightened the atmosphere wherever she went. I was lucky to have known her, even for such a short amount a time. I will cherish the advice she gave to me and remember her wonderful spirit always.

Side Swept Style
I first saw this woman in a grocery store on the Upper East Side. I admired her gorgeous hair and elegant style, but she left the store before I could ask her for a photo. The other day I was walking on Madison Avenue and I saw her again. I knew that I couldn't let the opportunity pass me by, so I ran up to her and asked if I could take her photograph. She was very gracious and I can't wait until the next time I run into her. Doesn't this make you a little less afraid of letting your hair go white?

100 Year Old Elise Relflects Upon a More Elegant Past
I ran into Elise on Madison Avenue and was shocked when she told me that she was about to turn 100 years old. I asked her about her fashion philosophy and she replied, "I miss elegance. There was a time when everyone used to dress up." I hear this sentiment a lot amongst the Advanced Style set. It makes me think of my grandmother's, and how we used to watch old Hollywood films, filled with the most glamorous people. As a young boy I was inspired by looking through grandma Bluma's scrapbooks full of vintage photographs.Everyone in the pictures looked so elegant and well dressed.
This is one reason I am so drawn to people like Elise. After taking her photo, we exchanged phone numbers.I can't wait to share some of her collection of over 83 hats with everyone!

The Gentlemen Are Back
For the past year I have been working on my book set for release on May 22. I originally started this blog to share the style and stories of both men and women.When it came to curating the photos for my book, I wanted to pay tribute to my wonderful grandmothers and decided to focus exclusively on pictures of stylish ladies. Now its time to once again add some wonderful gentlemen into the mix. I was excited to run across this dashing fellow on Madison Avenue yesterday. I interrupted his Blackberry chat to take a quick photo of his amazing outfit. He definitely gives me something to aspire towards.

A Surprise Meeting
A few years ago, my pal MISTER MORT shared a wonderful photograph of a woman whom he had met while photo-hunting in New York. Ever since then, I have hoped for the day when I would run into her. By a stroke of pure luck, I saw Suzy walking across the street in Gramercy the other day. I couldn't believe my eyes as I had no idea where she lived and if I would ever spot her. I told Suzy the whole story and she was delighted to pose for a few shots. We exchanged information and I can't wait to meet with her again!

Term 4 2013
Hi Parents/Caregivers
Welcome back to term 4! Where has the year gone? We hope your child/ren have had a good break and hopefully you have enjoyed the change of routine too! The following is a brief outline of what's in store for us this term.
We will continue with the Biographies of famous people. These are the people that we consider to be inspirational. We will look at the habit of mind intelligences that helped these people to be successful. Ultimately we want to apply these good habits of mind to our lives. Mrs Korenhof and Constable Maree will be looking at making choices as part of this topic too. We are planning a day trip away (to Rotorua), later this term to celebrate the learning we have done during these units.
Numeracy topics this term are: Fractions, Geometry and revision for our numeracy testing.
We will be conducting reading, spelling, written language and numeracy tests over the next four weeks. Attendance at school will be very helpful in getting all our children tested and our National standard data completed on time. Homework will include some activities to help the children revise for these tests. Plays, persuasive writing/speeches will be our literacy topics this term.
Homework will continue to be the usual weekly activities given out on Monday and due in on Friday. Spelling is part of the homework (see notebook), along with Mathletics and reading. I will thank you in advance for supporting your child/ren to do their homework and to bring both their notebook and homework book signed on Friday. This means it can be checked and tested on Friday. It takes the pressure off us to try and it done on the following Monday.
If you have any queries or suggestions I would love to hear from you. Your children are awesome and we just love teaching them in our beautiful new school. God is good!
God's richest blessings and favour
Teresa Dunn

Hi Team,
Seen any good movies lately? I have been wondering what movies you have watched lately and thought it would be neat to share them with everyone. Tell us about a movie you have watched. Include the following:
1. The title
2. The main character or characters in the movie and something about them
3. A bit about what happens in the movie
4. Why you liked or disliked the movie and give it a rating out of 5. One being not worth watching to five being a must watch!
Here is an example I have done for you of the movie Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs
This movie is about a likeable inventor called Flint. Unfortunately his latest invention accidentally destroys the town square and rockets up into the clouds. It looks like his inventing days are over but all is not lost. His contraption actually works!
I like this movie because it encourages us never to give up and has a happy ending! Sorry if you didn't want to know that bit, but I totally dislike movies with sad endings! This movie also funny and light hearted. Just what you need after a hard week at school. The animation is great too.
This is a movie everyone will enjoy. I give it 4.5 stars
Have you seen this movie? Leave a comment. (Give your reasons too).
I watched

The above is a photo of a group of very fortunate, room 2 children, on their Moutohora Island (Whale Island) trip. A BIG THANK YOU TO DIVEWORKS, Mr and Mrs van Dusschoten, for taking us. More blog entries on this trip to come. In the meantime here is an update for term 2.
Hi everyone,
Well, we are in our new room! What a fabulous space for our learning to take place in this term. God has truly blessed us yet again. I hope you have all enjoyed the two weeks with your children home.
You will notice we are keeping track of our homework in an exercise book this term. The main activities are spelling, 10 minutes reading and mathletics to be spread over 4 days or as suits. It will be checked on Friday. Please sign it, to verify the homework has been done. The purpose is support the core subjects done at school. Some activities will just involve completing some unfinished work.
Numeracy topics are addition/subtraction, algebra and multiplication and division.
Written language is descriptive writing and blogging. Reading is comprehension and identification of various language devices.
Communities of the World is our topic. How do we identify people as belonging together in other parts of the world. We may start Science if we have time this term. How are we alike and different? Mrs Korenhof will continue to take PE, Health and Bible.
The children have enjoyed our library visits. Our first one for this term is on the 14th of May (week 2) at 11 a.m. to 12 p.m. Please let me know if you are available to help transport the children there and back. We have one book outstanding from our last visit: The Wind and the Willows. Please keep a look out for it. ☺
We submit ourselves and our plans to God, for His divine guidance and wisdom.
May God bless you and guide us all in our roles as parents and caregivers of His precious children. May we all be good shepherds. Amen.
Thank you for your support.
Kind regards

This week your homework is to add your opinion using your persuasive writing skills. Remember it is important to state why you agree or disagree. Please proof read and edit your statements. This is a great opportunity for you and your parent or caregiver to have a say about our prize giving this year.
Just click on this link: wallwisher. Once you are at the wall double click on it. A sticky note will appear. Just type in your say. Name it with your first name only. I look forward to hearing what you think about this matter.
