Snyder new principal at South Brunswick High School
Published: Tuesday, July 23, 2013 at 11:18 p.m.
Last Modified: Tuesday, July 23, 2013 at 11:18 p.m.
Brunswick County | Following a closed personnel meeting Tuesday, the Brunswick County Board of Education voted to transfer Vicky Snyder to the position of South Brunswick High School Principal, a post left vacant by the recent transfer of Wayne Price.
Snyder will be leaving the head position at Brunswick County Early College High School, where current assistant principal Cheryl Skaggs will be filling the role of interim principal.
According to Superintendent Edward Pruden, Snyder was chosen after a selection committee of teachers and administrators reviewed numerous applications for the position, interviewed a half-dozen candidates, and presented the most qualified to Pruden for proposal to the board.
"Dr. Snyder has served for a number of years at our early college high school, she has proved to be an outstanding educational leader," Pruden said. "She possesses all the skills needed to move South Brunswick High School forward."
Chairman Charles Miller explained that a selection committee would soon be organized to find a permanent candidate for the principal position at the early college high school, which will follow the same process used to select Snyder.
"I'm looking forward to working with Ms. Skaggs in the interim position," Miller said. "She is welcome, and I hope she will, apply for the job permanently."

Among the band''s well-known songs are the go-go anthem "Hey, Fellas." They released several studio albums including Drop the Bomb, In Times of Trouble, Live, and Trouble Over Here, Trouble Over There (UK #54), and two live albums, Trouble Funk - Straight Up Go-Go Style and Saturday Night Live. In 1982, they released a single "So Early In The Morning" on D.E.T.T Records, later reissued on diverse labels as 2.13.61 & Tuff City. Trouble Funk sometimes shared the stage with hardcore punk bands of the day such as Minor Threat and the Big Boys. Its song "Pump Me Up" was sampled by many other artistsm and was featured in the film Style Wars and the fictional R&B radio station Wild Style in the game Grand Theft Auto: Vice City. "Pump Me Up" was sampled in Dimple D''s one-hit wonder "Sucker DJ," which went to #1 in Australia. Keyboard player Robert "Syke Dyke" Reed died at the age of 50 on April 13, 2008, from pancreatic cancer.

May 6, 2016
Lawmakers lined up with Gov. George Ryan in slicing $450 million from state spending.
But whether the budget is balanced remains a matter of debate in the state house. Many legislators complained after yesterday's marathon special session that they believed the $54 billion budget was balanced when they passed it June 2.
The Republican-controlled Senate supported all but $53 million of the governor's cuts.
That means two prisons will close, two mental health facilities will shut down, schools will see less money and fifth-year college students will have a harder time finding scholarship funds.

Will 'Beast Mode' Prevail?
Here's a quick thumbnail sketch of Friday's decisive Game 5 between Arizona-Milwaukee. Fist pitch is scheduled for 4:07 CT on TBS.
Simply said, we're looking at a rematch of Game 1, a 4-1 win for Milwaukee, between starters Yovani Gallardo & Ian Kennedy.
Gallardo is is 6-0 with a 1.18 ERA in six career starts against Arizona.
Kennedy, meanwhile, is a 21-game winner that was cruising through Game 1 until allowing a two-run homer in the seventh to Prince Fielder, who by the way, may be playing his last game in a Brewers uniform.
Ryan Braun, Fielder and Rickie Weeks are coming off a woeful 3-for-23 road trip in Arizona. The three, however, combined to go 10-for-22 in Games 1 & 2 at Miller Park.
The D-Backs are riding high offensively having plated 18 runs over the past two games, both victories in Arizona.
They also became just the second team ever to hit grand slams in consecutive postseason games, joining the 1977 Dodgers.
The Snakes are also looking to become just the eighth team to recover from an 0-2 series deficit in a best-of-five series, which isn't out of the question considering they managed a major league best 48 come-from-behind wins during the regular season.
But Milwaukee isn't likely to go down without a fight, where they too, set a major league mark in 2011 reaching 57 home victories.

As revelers prepare to ring in the New Year, and toast to the possibilities of 2013, they could also join the rest of the nation in a plunge over the proverbial fiscal cliff. But what does that mean? Will the stock market collapse on Jan. 2nd? Will new tax bills arrive in the mail in on the 3rd? Keith Shortall spoke with observers of the negotiations underway in Washington recently about what Mainers can expect if the deadline passes with no agreement.
Make no mistake: The fiscal cliff is a serious precipice, imposed by Congress last year as a way to discipline itself against gridlock.
"Many, many economists agree that if we were to go over the fiscal cliff, it would have fairly dire consquences. The question is: How rapidly would those consequences happen?" says Kevin Miller, Washington bureau chief for the Portland Press Herald and Maine Today Media.
Miller says it's true that the deadline is Jan. 1 - next Tuesday. "The across-the-board spending cuts would start to kick in - it'd be about $110 billion, $120 billion next year. The question is, those spending cuts would be phased in so we may not see the job losses immediately, but the fear is that you would have a situation where having these things kick in all of a sudden would basically send shock waves throughout the economy, and would certainly affect Wall Street, and we would go back to recession."
"I think with a lot of this, perception becomes reality," says Rebekah Metzler, a former State House reporter for Maine Today Media, who is now a politcal writer for U.S. News and World report in Washington. "It's not necessarily that come the New Year we're going to plunge into this economic free fall based on the cuts, but what Wall Street does and what businesses do based on political leaders not coming to a solution - that's the problem."
Metzler says that even if the deadline passes, Congress will still have some time to enact measures to protect the average American from lost benefits, or higher taxes. "If we go over by a week or two weeks, Congress can make it so that whatever law they pass to keep rates low, presumably they'll be agreement at least for 98 percent of them, who earn less than $250,000 - they won't lose out just because they missed a deadline."
"If nothing was done by the end of January, I'd start to get concerned," says Dante Chinni, a political columnist, and director of a demographics project called Patchwork Nation. "Then I think it's time to say, 'We've gone over something there,' because the longer stalemate goes on, the more troubling."
Keith Shortall: "So the real deadline is the Superbowl."
Dante Chinni: "Look, if we went that far out you'd start to see all sorts of stuff happen in terms of what would happen with the markets, and I think you stsart to talk about long-term damage to the U.S. economy."
But there are those, says Maine Today Media Washington Bureau Chief Kevin MIller, who believe that the measures that would be automatically imposed after a fall from the fiscal cliff are exactly what the U.S. economy needs.
"I think it was the Congressional Budget Office that said that if the fiscal cliff did happen, this would be the single largest deficit reduction in decades, and there are economists out there that say, you know, yes, it would cause some short term pain, but the long term benefits outweigh that short term pain. So there are a number of folks out there who think that inaction would be the better option."
And as of right now, there are no signs from Washington that those economists will be disappointed.

Video: Britain's Eurovision Song Contest entry Engelbert Humperdinck performs at London Palladium
13:10 26 May 2012
Veteran crooner Engelbert Humperdinck is flying the flag for the UK in the Eurovision Song Contest in Azerbaijan tonight.
The 76-year-old, who famously held The Beatles off number one in 1967, was chosen by the BBC to take part in the annual contest, which has been going since 1956.
Last year Britain were represented by Blue. The boyband finished 11th, behind Ireland's Jedward - who are due to take part again this year.
"I'm excited and raring to go," Humperdinck said.
His hits include Release Me and The Last Waltz.
The Eurovision song, Love Will Set You Free, has been written by Sacha Skarbek, who teamed up with James Blunt to compose his global hit You're Beautiful.

A character that is very kind and sweet but faces more hardship and suffering than they truly deserve.

Cinnamon rolling is a handshake whereby two or more people all put their right hands in together so their fingertips touch, wiggle their fingers then cry "CINNAMON ROLLLLL!" while curling their arms round so that all participants are making a big spirally shape with their arms. It was introduced by the Australian psych band Pond, and has since been adopted by UK bands Swim Deep and Peace among others, often as a pre-show ritual.
For an example, see Freshly Squeezed's interview with Swim Deep on youtube, skip to 3.13.
Great for making friends with people at gigs "Hey guys! Cinnamon rollll!" At this point they either have no idea what you're on about (in which case explain) or they do, and you bond over this shared piece of pop culture knowledge.

Hi all. Does anyone know if it's possible with a line or lines in your Hosts file to redirect a URL/domain to a specific browser?
I'm beyond FED UP with this conspiracy to force everyone to use certain browsers and versions. Certain websites are cloaking their content extorting visitors to conform to their browser ideals. I've never seen such a thing happen in all my years on the internet. The most appalling thing is you can actually see the content underneath their translucent "masks" but you can't scroll nor click anything other than their "demand". This proves the content is usable in older browsers!
I'm tired of having to (in IE with a hack) right click and "Open in FireFox" or "Open in Chrome", or (in FF) right click and "Open in IE".
There are numerous websites that I previously would go to all the time, and it is those websites I wish to automatically redirect the browser request to certain browsers without having to do anything. So that when I click a link anywhere, or enter the URL in the address bar, the default browser request to open is overridden to the alternate browser. I would think this could be done via the Hosts file, because you can redirect URL's to different URL's. But after trying various lines I can't see how to do this with browser requests. Is this possible?

What network protocol is used to transfer data between the camera and the computer?
Sony releases API to allow control of Wi-Fi-equipped digital cameras from smartphones
Theano Nikitas | Published: Sep 5, 2013 at 13:38 UTC41
Although Sony already has a number of apps for its Wi-Fi-equipped cameras, the company announced that it is releasing the API (Application Program Interface) for a limited number of its cameras. The program is designed to encourage the development of apps that will enable users to shoot and control still and video camera functions via Wi-Fi smartphones and tablets.
Currently, eight Sony cameras are compatible with the Camera Remote API beta including the NEX-6, Nex-5R, the recently announced NEX-5T, DSC-QX100 DSC-QX10, HDR-MV1 movie video recorder as well as two Action Cam models. The listed NEX-series cameras need to be updated with the Play Memories Smart Remote Control app, v. 2.0 (slated to be released on September 26) and the HDR-AS15 Action Cam needs a software update before these four cameras are compatible with the API beta. Sony plans to add more cameras to this list in the future.
The JSON-based API is platform agnostic and Sony provides detailed information, development and reference guides, along with a sample app on the program site. You'll also find a developer's forum to share ideas and contact information for Sony. Note, however, that technical support is only available for U.S. and Japan-based developers.
Let's hear from you: How should developers use Sony's API in new apps? What camera features would you like to control via your mobile?

Returning soldier is greeted in style
The road home for U.S. Army Sgt. Aaron Yoder of Elkhart was lined with reminders of why America is the land of the free and the home of the brave.
Yoder, who had been recovering for more than two months in a Texas Army hospital after he was shot in the leg April 9 during a gun fight in southern Afghanistan, was greeted Saturday afternoon by more than 350 people at South Bend Regional Airport, a crowd that included a proud contingent of Indiana Patriot Guard Riders on more than 130 motorcycles.
Yoder was shot while protecting Sgt. Bart, his bomb-sniffing black lab comrade-in-arms and buddy. "Dog handlers are some of the bravest soldiers in Afghanistan. They are often the point man on patrol, leading the soldiers as their dogs check for roadside bombs. Taliban commanders are offering a bounty to their snipers if they shoot brave dogs of war," says Military.com in a video that honors Aaron and Bart.
Aaron and Bart were separated when Yoder was med-evaced out of Afghanistan, but were reunited May 3 in Texas while Yoder recovered.
The 2005 Concord High School graduate was greeted by his family and then wheeled into the airport terminal, where his many greeters proudly displayed the red, white and blue, and cheered "welcome home" and "thank you." There were also profound moments of emotional silence, many hugs, handshakes and tears.
South Bend and Elkhart police and sheriff departments helped the Patriot Guard escort Yoder and his lengthy procession to the Osolo Fire Department as crowds of people gathered along the S.R. 23 and Cleveland Road route to wave their thanks and snap photographs of the visitor.
Yoder was honored in a short ceremony at Osolo as Elkhart Mayor Dick Moore praised the "great entourage" and "great turnout" before prayers were offered, more thanks were shouted out, more hugs given and more tears shed.
Patriot Guard Rider Tom Van De Voorde of Osceola said that he felt a sense of pride in his country and for those who serve, and solemnly said he had "unfortunately" been to "quite a few" homecomings, "but not with this result. This is what we hope for. We do it for the families," he said.
Gena Darling, whose family has known Aaron for a long time and attends First Baptist Church on C.R. 17 in Bristol with him, said that "it's great" to be able to greet her friend and hero. "My husband was in the Army in Vietnam, and we've come to have a whole new respect for people that are serving now," she said.
Tim Dalenberg of Bristol also attends First Baptist Church with Aaron, and was at Osolo Fire Department to welcome him home. "I'm overwhelmed. I'm just overwhelmed at what God has done in bringing him home to us. I'm proud of him. I'm proud of all of our soldiers. I'm glad that he's home, and I'm glad for his parents."
Kathy Kazmierzak is a Blue Star Mother who has experienced her own war-related anxieties. "Oh my gosh, it's very emotional, and I'm so proud of what he's done, and what they all have done," she said. "I am just so overwrought today. My son was in Iraq a few years ago, and it just brings back the memories of what they do. Right now I feel for Aaron's family, and what all the other soldiers that are left behind in Afghanistan are going through."
"You love on him," exclaimed one Patriot at the Osolo ceremony, which was short and sweet because it was time for Aaron to go home with his mother, Dawn, sitting next to him in the front seat.

In the current age of green-marketing hype, it's really cool to see a company that puts its money and resources where its mouth is. Action-sports brand etnies created a campaign called "Buy A Shoe, Plant A Tree" that aims to plant more than 35,000 trees in the Costa Rican rainforest, one tree for every pair of the Jameson 2 Eco shoes sold. Last week, the ceremony for the project kicked off in a deforested patch of land east of Lake Arenal in the mountainous center of Costa Rica.
Together with La Reserva Forest Foundation, etnies has been working on the project for years, which is also benefiting the Maleku people, the smallest indigenous tribe in Costa Rica. CEO and owner Pierre-André Senizergues was joined by athletes like Ryan Sheckler, Benji Weatherley, Kyle Leeper, CJ Kanuha, and Chris Del Moro in planting the first trees in what they plan to be a bio-diverse, thriving forest on land that was previously cleared for cattle or farming.
"The name etnies comes from the word tribe," said Pierre. "For etnies to have the opportunity to unite with the passionate people of the Maleku tribe and La Reserva on this very important reforestation project is one of my proudest moments in etnies' 25-year history."
It's a great cause, and cool to see something actually happening—trees actually going into the ground, as opposed to some abstract campaign to "go green" where you have little idea where a contribution might end up. I also like that they've made it easy for you; all you have to do to help out is buy a pair of Jameson 2 Ecos, which are cool shoes in themselves, and made from recycled materials, and for every pair sold etnies will be planting a tree in the Costa Rica rainforest.
Hats off to Pierre and the crew at etnies for all their hard work in making it happen. "This project means a lot to me," he said. "You make a life by what you give. This is the beginning, we will be doing much more."
And don't worry, in addition to being a trip with a great cause, we also all had plenty of fun as well. Here are a few quick highlights:
Pro skater and celebrity Ryan Sheckler was mobbed at least three times on the trip by fans. I'm not talking about two kids coming up, waving hi, and moving on, either. The first time was at a small restaurant out in the middle of nowhere, where a bus of tourist kids eating lunch spotted him at our table. Within 30 seconds it turned into a swarming, screaming mess, with more than 40 kids crowding him for an autograph and pictures.
I have to say, the kid is incredibly gracious. "I just try to ask how they're doing and look them all in the eye," he told us. Every fan that wanted an autograph or picture got one, even as Sheckler's lunch went cold on the table.
A few days later we were on the beach at Jaco for a little surf contest. After the contest announcer let out that Sheckler was down there, the beach went absolutely nuts, with a hundred or more kids flocking over for a piece. He signed a few autographs, but really wanted to go catch a few waves. Fans followed him waist deep into the surf, and waited at the water for him.
When he got out, it was back on. He was taking pictures and signing bodies and t-shirts for an hour or more, but eventually security had to escort him out. It was crazy. There are no surfers in the world that draw that intensity of attention, not even Slater.
Before the tree planting ceremony, we all went to a huge lunch with the Maleku tribe, all 600 or so of them. After lunch they let us doing some practice shots with their bows and arrows. A nice Maleku man handed me one of their traditional bows, so I decided to give it a go. I pulled back hard, not wanting to look like a limp-wristed pansy, and then there was a loud "SNAP!"—I broke the guy's bow perfectly in half. I apologized profusely, and he said it wasn't a big deal, but knowing my luck it was probably a family heirloom or something.
Our crew was not deterred the least though, and a bit later, Benji Weatherley grabbed a bow, launched his first arrow, which proceeded to travel maybe five feet. For his next shot he pulled back hard and aimed 45-degrees up and the arrow went whizzing high into the air, sailing about 40 yards past the target and into the jungle behind. It turned out the "jungle" was someone's yard, and Benji ran back to look for the arrow and make sure he didn't stick someone's pig.
Meanwhile, we continued shooting, of course. CEO of Sole Tech, Pierre stepped up and pulled hard, and proceeded to launch one high, straight on course toward where Benji was in the jungle. We forgot he was back there, but then someone scanned around and realized he was still looking for his arrow. "Benji!" we all screamed. "Look out!!!" He actually heard us yelling and ducked behind a tree, and lived to shoot a few more arrows—Casey Koteen

The Oreck Advantage: Direct Suction
Our direct suction design delivers dirt in a straight, efficient path right to the vacuum bag. It's a streamlined design that works beautifully with a smaller motor — and one reason why Oreck bagged uprights are so lightweight. Here's how: our upright vacuums incorporate a "dirty air system" in which dirt is pulled through a fan that breaks it into smaller particles that get sucked up into the vacuum. Oreck's smaller motor drives this fan, as well as the brushroll. Because these smaller motors sit closer to the floor they provide efficient suction and are able to spin the brushroll incredibly fast.

WHEATON, Md. (WUSA9) -- Police are releasing more information in the hit and run crash that killed a Wheaton woman Tuesday night. They say they are sharpening their focus on a late 1990s to early 2000s model Toyota Corolla.
Neighbors tell WUSA 9 they are concerned about safety at the intersection where the hit and run occurred. They say cars routinely speed past them as they try and legally cross Connecticut Avenue.
Lily Aguirre of Wheaton crosses the intersection regularly. She says, "It's kind of scary, lots of cars running, zooming."
Paladis and Aguirre are just two of several people who came up to us to tell us drivers speed on this stretch of Connecticut Avenue. The speed limit is 45 mph. We got out the WUSA9 speed gun. We clocked drivers between 7 and 7:30 at night: the same time as Tuesday's hit and run. We witnessed most drivers obeying the law, driving between 29 and 45 mph. However, we did see one driver clock in at 48 mph, and another driver at 49 mph.
We also witnessed that the intersection is poorly lit at night. Police haven't blamed low light nor speed for the crash that killed Eres Ali. But neighbors say they wonder if the current speed limit could be the issue. Less than 4 miles away in Kensington, the limit along the same stretch of road is 35 mph.
Another potential factor in the increasing danger of crossing the road is the placement of the L8 bus stop. It stop at the unmarked intersection rather than at the nearby traffic light.
Police are now sharpening their focus for the driver. They say they're looking for a late 90s to early 2000s Toyota Corolla with front end damage, perhaps a broken headlight on the passenger side.
Police also haven't commented on whether the rainy weather on Tuesday night could have played a role in the crash. They are asking if you have any information that could help them break this case, to give them a call at 240-773-6620.

The master's in Strategic Design and Management, launched in fall 2012, responds to the major restructuring of developed and emerging economies worldwide. Unlike traditional master's degrees in design and management, the MS in Strategic Design and Management incorporates design thinking, service design, and sustainability frameworks. As a design and management graduate student, you focus on the evolving global economy and are exposed to sophisticated real-world perspectives on business, operations, sustainability, management, leadership, entrepreneurship, design innovation, and design research.
A 36-credit program, Strategic Design and Management combines business, management, and leadership coursework with design-centered studio work. Evening classes and online instruction are available, making this a flexible program that can be completed entirely on campus or primarily online. The online program includes a mandatory week-long intensive workshop held during mid-January on campus in New York City—a global design center and a world financial capital.
Coursework incorporates cutting-edge analyses of the digital information-based economy, which help students develop new business models and organizational designs for the creative industries. Many classes are structured to replicate real-world industry scenarios. These classes provide hands-on experience in designing, managing, and improving design-intensive and creative firms—and help students develop their capacity to inspire and lead creative teams.
The Strategic Design and Management program seeks students who will be the game changers of the new economy and its new actors—digital firms, social information networks, and co-producing individuals. It is well suited for early- to mid-career professionals and recent graduates seeking to complement their design and business skills with professional application. Students are exposed to new industry contexts and practices, both within and outside of design-intensive industries.
The program's connections with industry are matched by its place in the intellectual community of Parsons and other divisions of The New School. Housed in Parsons' School of Design Strategies, the program is part of a leading urban university known for its strengths in design thinking, organizational management, nonprofit management, sustainability management, leadership, and entrepreneurship.
An executive version of the same program, which is structured as a series of six three-day seminars held at the Parsons Paris campus, combined with online learning, hands-on studios, and global experiences in New York and Shanghai. Courses are taken one at a time, and the full program takes about 18 months to complete.
Parsons also offers an 18-credit graduate certificate in Business of Design. Students must complete six strategic design management, leadership, and innovation courses to qualify for the certificate.

For the last 30 years, the big agriculture story has been the decline of the family farm, and the rise of the biotech giants, such as Monsanto. But early indications from the Cooperative Extension Service show that in New England at least, the small farm is poised to make a big come back. As Jennifer Mitchell reports, Maine's local foods movement has ushered in a new era for new farms - and new farmers.
At the Cornerstone Farm in Palmyra, Henne Tierney produces field hogs - the pig equivalent of "free range."
"When we first got chickens," says Heather Donahue, "our very first egg - I went out and found my little bitty egg in the chicken coop. I was all excited, I picked it up and I'm like, 'Oh my gosh, it's warm! It was just lain and it was still warm!'"
Donahue is a middle school teacher turned start-up farmer. "Farming isn't always pretty," she says. "It isn't always good smelling, it's not always quiet and bucolic. You know, there's a lot of noise invoved whether it's from tractors or cows."
But now, there's nothing else she'd rather do. She and her husband Doug purchased Balfour Farm in Pittsfield in 2010. He also gave up a successful career - as a construction contractor - to get into farming. But the couple have no regrets. It hasn't always been easy knowing what to do, Doug says, because people aren't taught how to farm - unless they've grown up on one.
Fortunately, they've had plenty of help from neighbors. "You know, if you were out making hay on a day that wasn't ideal, they would come by and stop you and catch you in the field and tell you that you were crazy or something," Doug says.
In America, there are more full-time prisoners than full-time farmers. But people like the Donahues may be changing that statistic. They're just part of a growing farm trend that started about five years ago and has picked up sharply this year.
"We're seeing a lot of interest from a variety of both ages groups and types of people, so that's what's really interesting," says Rick Kersbergen from the Cooperative Extension Service.
Kersbergen says the demand for information on farming in Maine is at a record high, with people moving to the state, purchasing small holdings, and wanting to know how to make the land productive for anything from hay to honey.
In response to that surge of interest, his department decided to offer a webinar this year called "So You Want To Farm in Maine." "And we had 160 people sign up for that," Kersbergen says.
And one simple reason may be contributing to the interest. "I think any new farmer looking to buy land in Maine would probably laugh at this, but I think that in general, Maine has affordable land," says Clayton Carter.
And with the average Maine farmer reaching retirement age within the next 10 years, there's more of that land available, at better prices than elsewhere in New England, says Carter, who started his professional life as a computer programmer in Boston.
Carter wound up in Etna, where he's been growing organic vegetables on his Fail Better Farm for the last few years; like the Donahues, he doesn't see himself going back to a 9 to 5 job.
"I will not deny that there times thoughout the season when the stress just builds up to the point where you're like, 'Oh my God, what am I doing?' But then of course you get a night's rest, and have a great market the next day, and everything seems great again," he says with a laugh.
One thing that's helping new farmers stick with it, he says, is a partner. His is Hanne Tierney (left, holding a young field hog), whose Cornerstone Farm is 20 minutes to the South in Palmyra. Tierney produces field hogs - that's sort of the pig equivalent of "free-range."
Carter and Tierney save money by working together. They might share gas in getting produce to markets in Portland, and they can support each other by exchanging tools and resources. Of all these start ups, Tierney has been operating the longest - almost 10 years.
But unlike other industries, in farming at 10 years old, you're still just a start up, according to the USDA. Taking on a farm means literally decades of work and investment before a farm is considered "established" or profitable. With farms largely at the mercy of consumers and consumer trends, what that means for the new crop of little start-ups won't be clear for years to come.
But Tierney, like Carter and the Donahues, says she's putting everything she has into her farm - and she just hope the markets will bear out the trend. "I hope that the consumers understand," she says. "And it's partially our job to help them see how important it is to know your farmer - and know your food."

JUNE 8th, 1967, Israeli warplanes and torpedo boats attacked the American intelligence vessel USS Liberty in international waters. 34 American sailors were killed and 174 wounded . American carrier planes were launched but immediately recalled by President Lyndon Johnson, who said that he did not want to embarrass my ally, who were at the moment strafing the Libertys life rafts.
Despite the National Security Agency withholding tapes and documents that bear on the matter, there is overwhelming evidence, including NSA intercepts of the pilots transmissions, that this was a deliberate attack, seemingly designed to keep the U.S. from knowing of Israels impending attack on the Golan Heights, which Washington opposed. The Liberty sailors were ordered to be silent on pain of court martial, and the Navy conducted a superficial investigation, admitting that its purpose was not to assign culpability.
To this day the official position of the Israeli and American governments is that the incident was an accident, which is about as likely as the attack on Pearl Harbor being accidental.


text: Looks nice, but it looks much more like a coarse and somewhat aged pulp paper than parchment. Also, you should be careful about using the word "scale" in the context of maps, it has a very specific meaning. A "large map" and a "large scale map" are two very different things. You can think of scale as how "zoomed out" the map is: "small scale" means you are very zoomed out and things are drawn very small, "large scale" means things aren't as zoomed out and things are drawn larger than on a small scale map, though still generally smaller than in real life.

Info from TV Tokyo
Here's the translation of his article on http://www.tv-tokyo.co.jp/anime/naruto/chara.html
Rinji (リンジ)
A man who became Guren's subordinate after the selection battle in the remote hideout. He has a sharp intellect and is a planning type. With this, he supports Guren's mission. During his time in the hideout, he became comrades with his fellow subordinates Nurari (ヌラリ), Kigiri (キギリ), and Kihō (キホウ), often cooperating with them to win battles. He is sincerely loyal to Guren.
He's sincerely loyal to Guren, but he also seems to have a close relationship with Kabuto.
He has the ability to use ultrasonic waves and he can control bats, allowing him to survey the surroundings and give battle instructions to his subordinates.
--ShounenSuki 20:15, 27 December 2008 (UTC)
The chart gives the following kanji: Rinji: 麟児 Kigiri: 鬼霧 Kihō: 鬼鳳 Nurari: 濡羅吏
--ShounenSuki 20:31, 27 December 2008 (UTC)
Is he really a missing-nin? --ShounenSuki (talk | contribs) 20:58, 14 April 2009 (UTC)
- Good point Suki. Where is the proof that he is a missing-nin. He may be on Orochimaru's side, but that doesn't mean that he is a missing-nin.--NejiByakugan360 (talk) 21:51, 14 April 2009 (UTC)
You guys think that missing-nins are just enemies but but they are not. If you remember he was in Orochimarus prison and he was missing from his village. So that makes him a missing-nin.Thats what i think. Kyuubinaruto123 (talk) 15:48, 28 May 2009 (UTC)
Is it Rinji or Kabuto?
For what I saw and heard, Rinji left to report to Orochimaru, while Kabuto posses as him for the time being (Shippūden episode 102). Furthermore Kabuto said that he'll give Rinji the instructions for Guren to follow(Shippūden episode 105) which would be less troublesome and time consuming just to do it himself. There's also the manner of loyalty with Nurari, Kigiri and Kihō: Rinji wouldn't have abandon them (in my point of view), while we saw him looking for the Sealing team. Moreover the fact that Kabuto wanted to test Yūkimaru's own power, then Rinji stabs Guren in the leg. The only conclusion I can give is that Rinji hasn't shown up after episode 102.(please read this article carefully, if not you get confused) 7:00, 1 May 2009 (UTC) Ha, I was right! 13:02, 22 May 2009 (UTC)
No one saw that Kabuto really killed Rinji. I didnt even see that. O.o --Hamachi1993 (talk) 00:50, 30 May 2009 (UTC)Hamachi1993
- Well it was not shown in the anime but he said something to Kabuto that he was gonna tell Orochimaru something. I cant remember what it was. And Kabuto got really mad and he killed Rinji. Kyuubinaruto123 (talk) 09:19, 30 May 2009 (UTC)
Body Flame Technique
I checked the arc. Kabuto killed and replaced Rinji in episode 102 (revealed in episode 110/111). From what I can see, "Rinji" only used Body Flame Technique in episode 104, in other words, after Kabuto took his place. Jacce | Talk | Contributions 20:43, April 22, 2011 (UTC)
Should he have a background since he was in the prison doing research on the prisoners for orochimaru??184.108.40.206 (talk) 20:32, December 17, 2012 (UTC) NaruHina4ever

Snow plows are hard to miss during a snow storm. They're out working to clean up our roadways, but are often in dangerous situations.
11 News rode along as crews cleaned up residential areas in northern El Paso County. We were in the passenger seat when an SUV sped around the plow on a two lane road.
Snow plow drivers told us, the biggest problem they come across is drivers going too fast for the conditions. They're asking for just a little patience and space to keep the roads safer for all of us.
We watched the SUV driver into the on-coming traffic lane to speed around the snow plow.
"Does that happen often, cars passing you? Yes, oh yeah it happens all the time," El Paso County Snow Plow driver Mike Smith said.
During and after snow storms, Smith plows the roads in El Paso County from dawn till dusk. He said, too often, it's an impatient move like that one- that can cause an accident.
"There's nothing that should be that big of a hurry that would cost you your life," Smith said.
We also talked to drivers who said, they do actually take more precautions when they see plows on the road.
"I try to stop and pull over, it's a hazard," one Springs driver said.
"I drive a little more cautious," another added.
Smith said that during a big storm, they hit the main roads first. Followed by roads needed to get to schools and hospitals, before clearing the neighborhood streets.
It's a lot of work, but it's work he doesn't mind doing.
"You just feel like you're accomplishing something. That you're trying to make the road safe, not only for you but for the public as well," Smith said.
If your car is ever stranded, the county asks that you tow it immediately. If it's left and obstructs the snow removal, they are allowed to have it towed at your expense.
Colorado Department of Transportation says when you're on the interstate they recommend you stay at least 150 feet behind a snowplow, that's half a football field.

Hot Pie
this wiki
Hot Pie is a recurring character in the first, second, and third seasons. He is played by guest star Ben Hawkey and debuts in "Fire and Blood." He is an orphan and now fugitive previously accompanying Arya Stark.
Hot Pie is an orphan living in King's Landing and working for a baker.
Season 1
Hot Pie and Lommy Greenhands are recruited to join the Night' Watch. They bully Arya Stark when she joins their group and demand she give up her sword, Needle. Hot Pie claims that he killed a boy once by kicking him to death. When Arya refuses and threatens to kill him, he backpedals and bumps into Gendry, who scares him off.[1]
Season 2
Hot Pie is travelling north on the Kingsroad with Yoren's recruits.[2] Gold Cloaks from King's Landing come upon them looking for Gendry. Yoren intimidates them into leaving but they promise to return with more men. Later, Arya, Hot Pie and Lommy Greenhands wash cook pots in the stream while Gendry fills a pail with water. Lommy says that they should yield if the gold cloaks return, not wanting to be caught in a battle. Hot Pie claims that he is unafraid of battle and Arya questions his courage. Hot Pie claims to have seen lots of battles and Arya calls him a liar. Hot Pie insists that he saw a man stabbed in the neck outside a tavern in Flea Bottom. Lommy tells Hot Pie that two men fighting is not a battle. Hot Pie says that they had armor on. Arya questions the relevance of this and Hot Pie says that if the combatants wear armor, it is automatically a battle. Lommy refutes the assertion and Hot Pie wonders what a dyer's apprentice would know about battle. As Gendry returns to refill the pail, Arya tell Hot Pie that Gendry is an armorer's apprentice. She instructs Hot Pie to relay his definition of a battle to Gendry. Gendry asks who told Hot Pie that. Hot Pie claims that he heard it from a knight. Gendry asks how Hot Pie knew he was a knight and Hot Pie again cites armor as deciding the issue. Gendry explains that anyone can buy armor. Hot Pie asks how Gendry knows and Gendry reminds him that he sold armor.[3]
The group is resting in a barn when they are roused to arms by Yoren and told they are being attacked. Hot Pie and Lommy arm themselves and Lommy picks up Gendry's helm before they rush outside. They are met by Ser Amory Lorch and a force of men loyal to House Lannister. Lorch points out the Gold Cloaks with him and says that they have come for Gendry, a royal bastard. Lorch orders Yoren and the recruits to drop their weapons. Yoren remains defiant and Lorch orders him shot. Yoren fights on but is eventually overwhelmed.[4]
Seeing their leader killed, Gendry and many of the other recruits join the fight while Hot Pie hides in the bushes. The recruits are quickly defeated and the survivors are taken prisoner. Lorch orders the prisoners taken to Harrenhal. Hot Pie is found in the bushes and is quick to yield. Lommy calls for help from the ground, a crossbow bolt in his left leg. Polliver approaches and asks him if he can walk. Lommy says they will have to carry him. Polliver offers him a hand and then stabs him through the throat, killing him. He tells his companions that Lommy wanted to be carried, drawing a laugh. Lorch pushes over Yoren's corpse and demands that the survivors identify Gendry. Arya says that they have already killed him pointing out the bulls head helm lying next to Lommy.[4]
Hot Pie, Gendry and Arya arrive at the ruined castle Harrenhal with a column of other Lannister prisoners. Gendry sees the decimated towers and asks what kind of fire can melt stone. Arya tells him that it was dragon fire and Hot Pie asks if there are dragons there. Gendry says that dragons are extinct and Hot Pie wonders what he can smell. Arya says that it is the smell of dead people. Polliver orders them to walk on into the midst of the ruin.[5]
They are chained in a stockade with many other prisoners. They can hear the sounds of a man being tortured nearby. The screams end and an old woman says that the victim is dead. She is expressionless and reports in a monotone that her captors have tortured her sister, husband and now her son to death. Gendry realizes that they select a new victim each day. Arya asks if anyone survives the torture and the woman does not answer.[5]
Hot Pie and the prisoners are awoken by Ser Amory Lorch and his men. Ser Gregor Clegane approaches the stockade. Hot Pie says that he is the one who chooses the prisoners and Arya recognizes him. Hot Pie stares at him as he approaches and Arya asks what he is doing. Hot Pie says that another prisoner told him that he always stares at the mountain and is never chosen. Hot Pie and his new friend stare at Gregor as he surveys the captives. Gregor selects the staring prisoner. Hot Pie wets himself in fear. The prisoner is strapped to a chair by Weasel as the Tickler questions him. He is asked about hidden valuable in his village and the whereabouts of the Brotherhood. A rat is placed in a bucket and strapped to his chest. Weasel heats the bucket to provoke the rat into burrowing through his chest. The Tickler asks who aided the Brotherhood and the prisoner implicates Ganes the butcher and his son. He begs them to stop and the Tickler says that he has been very helpful but continues with the torture regardless. Hot Pie and the other prisoners watch, helpless to stop them.[5]
The head of the tortured prisoner is hammered onto a spike above the stockade. Gendry is chosen by Gregor and his questioning begins despite him not being from the village. Lord Tywin Lannister arrives and halts the torture. He orders the prisoners put to work and recognizes that Arya is a girl. Tywin says that she will be his new cup bearer.[5] While working in the castle Hot Pie comes across the corpse of the Tickler, apparently having been murdered in broad daylight.[6]
Hot Pie is talking to Gendry about recipes, when Arya comes by looking for Jaqen, but he doesn't know where Jaqen is. Lord Tywin leaves Harrenhal under Gregor's command. Arya arranges to escape with assistance from Jaqen H'ghar. Hot Pie steals food from the kitchens for their journey and goes along despite his fear. They are to walk out of the gate at midnight, but guards are posted there. It isn't until they begin walking to the gate that they realize that the guards are dead and nailed to their posts.[7]
After escaping Harrenhal, they see Jaqen H'ghar standing on a small cliff above them, and Arya leaves the others to go to talk to him.[8]
Season 3
Hot Pie and Gendry criticize Arya for not asking Jaqen H'ghar to kill the contenders for the Iron Throne and ending the war. They are all captured by the Brotherhood without Banners.[9]
The innkeeper in the Inn at the Crossroads liked Hot Pie's bread, so he decided to stay and work there as a baker. He baked Arya a loaf of bread in the shape of a direwolf as a goodbye present.[10]

In the books
In the A Song of Ice and Fire novels, Hot Pie is a young recruit for the Night's Watch that Yoren meets in King's Landing. He was a baker's apprentice. He doesn't appear until the second novel A Clash of Kings.
Hot Pie ends up making bread for a different inn named the Inn of the Kneeling Man. He decided to stay there because he was tired of travelling dangerous roads, exposed to the rain, suffering of saddle sores and constantly frightened. He asked Arya to come back when the war was over, and she promised to, though she had no idea if the war would ever be done. Although Arya thought Hot Pie was stupid and cowardly, she missed him a lot.
Hot Pie is not mentioned afterwards in the books.

dark impact mark on jupiter
Posted 20 July 2009 - 02:15 PM
it should be visually visible as well in moderate/small scopes. i'm not gonna get a chance to see it due to persistent unstable weather over here, and the spot being visible during the late morning hours when the sun will be already pretty high up
it would be cool if one of us could grab the chance and give a report on how it looks thru the scope, and perhaps add a sketch. the last time such an event happened was in 1994.

Thank you for informing everyone on the new South Polar Region (SPR) dark spot which appears to have resulted from an impact (most probably a comet or comet fragment similar to S-L 9 in 1994). Anthony Wesley is a talented planetary imager from Australia who recorded the feature on July 19, 2009 (15:55 U.T.) on the central meridian (System II 210 degrees West) using his 14.5" Newtonian reflector. I hope that other observers are able to follow this dark impact site in the future. Below are links to predicted transit timings of the SPR impact site;

Thanks for the heads up on this amazing phenomena! I'm going out tonight to see if I can get some sketches or images of this!
Posted 21 July 2009 - 05:43 AM
What a privilege to be able to see something like this with your own eyes. I used my 8 inch Dob and shortly after midnight local time (about 07:10 UT) I was able to identify the scar deep in the south polar region. I don't often tread into planetary sketching, so this took a lot of concentration. The sketch took about 45 minutes from 07:20 UT to 08:05 UT. I created the field sketch on plain white paper on a pre-printed form. The blending was horrible though, so I traced all the contours onto a new sheet of Strathmore Drawing paper and re-created it with graphite pencil (2H and HB). Color and limb darkening were added in Photoshop.
I think the Shoemaker-Levy 9 scars lasted a few weeks before they smeared out. So there should be some more time to clear any weather or scheduling hurtles to see this thing for yourself. Be sure to check it out as soon as you can! Wow!

An excellent observation of Jupiter showing the new impact site over the South Polar Region (SPR). It is amazing to witness this event (or the aftermath) especially after the S-L 9 event of 1994. Thank you for sharing it with us all.
Posted 21 July 2009 - 08:19 AM
i know it's probably very difficult to compare your own views with pictures, but do you think the mark has already waned much? also is it easily recognized or rather more difficult to spot? i sure hope it will last for at least a week or so
i check the weather forecast at meteoblue.com often, and on every window i have i'm completely clouded out so far untill the weekend (i'll probably set my watch anyway tomorrow morning, without expectations, but you never know)
i'm happy some of us get to see it at least!

Kris, I hope the weather gives you a chance to see it. I'm not sure at what rate it is dissipating. Checking in on the latest images and comparing them should be helpful. With my seeing conditions, it wasn't a striking feature, but it was consistent. The 120X view provided better contrast, but the 240X view was better for working out position and size of the structure as well as the other cloud features. I did not detect elongation as others did. Hopefully I'll get another look at it as it gradually shears away.
Posted 22 July 2009 - 04:22 PM
Posted 23 July 2009 - 07:04 AM
The impact feature is still hanging on and was readily visible through my 8 inch Dob. The best part was seeing it along with a beautiful shadow transit with Callisto hanging just outside Jupiter's following limb. It also provided a nice contrast for comparison of the two spots. Callisto's shadow was strikingly black, while the impact scar appeared more as a soft feature that seemed to take on the brownish color of the surrounding clouds. I spent more time getting a feel for the impact site itself, and did detect a horizontal elongation and slightly condensed appearance.
I had a couple moments of incredibly good seeing that showed up a lighter patch north of the impact scar and corresponded well to the position of a white spot in the area. I did not detect this white spot as a hard oval, just as a subtle brightening in the area. Midway through my observation, high clouds moved in and foiled my attempts to finish up detail on the preceding edge before it rotated out of view, so the equatorial belts are a little plain in that part of the sketch. I finished the observation just as Callisto was dipping into Jupiter's profile.
The sketch was created on Strathmore Drawing paper with graphite pencils (2H and HB). Mostly just pencil shading, with a little bit of blending stump thrown in to soften some scratch marks. I used Photoshop to add the black background, limb darkening and brownish color.

Carlos- I love the drawing you made from just above the clouds of Jupiter and the impact point. Very realistic.
Jeremy- Your drawings are beautiful and much appreciated. If I'm going to see this I'll need some better cooperation from the local weather.
Posted 23 July 2009 - 09:08 AM
Carlos--thanks for putting us in orbit around the King!
Rich--let us know where you post your images.
Kris and Frank--good luck on your local weather. I've had the scope ready to go, but we've had clouds and t-storms day and night here all week.
Posted 23 July 2009 - 09:09 AM
Another excellent observation of Jupiter showing the Wesley comet impact scar. The impact site appears to be enlarging (most probably due to shearing forces of the jovian atmosphere). It is interesting to follow the development of this cometary impact site over the South Polar Region of Jupiter. I hope that we can all observe it as well over the next few weeks. Thank you for sharing it with us all.
Posted 23 July 2009 - 10:42 AM
Great sketch! [And your earlier one in Spaceweather yesterday too!]
I was compelled to sketch Jupiter last night but could only see it for fleeting seconds through clouds. I forgot which polar region the impact scare was at, It is new to me so I thought I read the south polar region. However I easily noticed the obvious moon transit shadow just to the right of the GRS through my 10.1 inch Dobsonian; that compelled me to sketch at least that but then the clouds took over too soon.
I am confused now. I keep reading the impact scare as in the south polar region [as reported in yesterdays NY Times; you'd think I as an astronomer would get my info from an astronomy site and not the NY Times :question: but I do have the transit times for it from the Australian Ice in Space forums], but then I see it here in your sketch in what I thought was inverted as it would be seen in a Dob, yet you are showing it at bottom as proper south orientation. ( I did easily see the SL-9 in 1994 and showed it to all my neighbors.)
Thanks again for any info Jeremy,
Posted 23 July 2009 - 11:06 AM
Weather is really making this difficult for a lot of folks. I hope you all do catch a break from it at some point very soon.

Galaxies, Genes, and the Glory of God
On Friday, May 2, 2014, Deborah Haarsma will present "Galaxies, Genes, and the Glory of God: Intersections of Science and Christian Faith," for the annual Henderson Conference. Dr. Haarsma is president of BioLogos Foundation in Grand Rapids, Mich. These lectures will be held on the Seminary's campus and are free and open to the public.
11:00 a.m. "Engaging Science in the Life of Your Congregation" Science and technology are integral to modern western life, yet Christians are often perceived to be opposed to science. How can this stereotype be corrected? What could it look like to engage science more effectively in local churches? Science can enhance the church's ministry in evangelism, discipleship, environmental stewardship, and service to the poor. Most of all, science can enrich our worship of the God who created it all.
2:00 p.m. "Christian Perspectives on Creation, Design, Evolution, and Human Origins" Christians today hold a range of views on origins. The most prominent debates are between young earth creationism and atheistic evolution; this talk will review other positions, including old earth creationism, intelligent design, and evolutionary creationism. Come for an introduction to the key scientific evidence around origins from astronomy, geology, paleontology, and genetics, and how it all intersects with the Bible and human significance.
- 4:00 p.m. "God and the Universe" The psalmist wrote, "The heavens declare the glory of God." What is modern astronomy revealing about God? The discoveries of the last 100 years have transformed our understanding of the universe and its expansion, and even introduced the possibility that our universe is part of a much larger multiverse. Come for a tour of a universe, from extrasolar planets to baby stars, from galaxies to dark matter, all seen through the eyes of faith.
If you plan to attend the lectures, please register HERE. The lectures are free and open to the public but it is helpful for us to have an idea of anticipated attendance. Contact the Seminary's Office of Continuing Education at 412-924-1345 or email@example.com for more information.
Speaker Bio
Deborah Haarsma is president of BioLogos. She wrote Origins: Christian Perspectives on Creation, Evolution, and Intelligent Design with her husband and fellow physicist, Loren Haarsma, and edited the anthology, Delight in Creation: Scientists Share Their Work with the Church, with Rev. Scott Hoezee. Previously, she served as professor and chair in the Department of Physics and Astronomy at Calvin College, with several publications on extragalactic astronomy and cosmology. Haarsma earned a Ph.D. in physics at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology.
About the J. Hubert Henderson Conference
The Rev. J. Hubert "Hub" Henderson was a member of the Board of Directors of Pittsburgh Theological Seminary for 27 years, serving as President of the Board for part of that time. A graduate of Muskingum College and Pittsburgh Theological Seminary, Dr. Henderson came to Green Tree, Pa. to begin his second pastorate in 1944. He remained at the Wallace Memorial Presbyterian Church until his retirement 35 years later, in 1979. He taught a deep commitment to the church to a steady flow of seminarians, who came to Wallace each year for their field education, as well as to the congregation that loved him. Congregations, colleagues in ministry, family, and friends have joined together to establish this memorial conference in memory of "Hub."

My Fit Foods: Day 1
by Sara Osburn
posted Jan 7 2014 5:51PM
My Fit Foods Day 1:
So I thought I would begin by letting you know why I am doing the 21 Day Challenge. I read a lot about what I should and should not eat. I shop at Whole Foods and Central Market and I eat a lot of kale. I go through periods of logging my calories into My Fitness Pal. I tell myself…I am not going to drink for a few weeks. I have this wonderful vision of me cooking healthy meals every day. Then the stresses of life and the lack of sleep take over and I find myself trying to find the healthiest option at McDonalds, the vending machine or 7-11 at 5am in the morning. And then surprise…my jeans start getting tight. Worst. Feeling. Ever.
Well guess what after a fun November/December where I just decided to go for it and eat everything...my jeans are tight, I feel sluggish, and I need help. I see the My Fit Foods 21 Day Challenge as this wonderful way to wipe the slate clean. Start over. Fresh start. Create new healthy habits. I love the "idea" of hard core diets like eating vegan, or paleo, or carb free…but I know me...I can last on those maybe a month. My Fit Foods is nothing but simple, proportioned, fresh meals. They are meals I could make at home, but just don't always have the time. So I see the Challenge as a little jump start. Let My Fit Foods do the work for me…and for the next 21 days I will give myself a running start to a healthy 2014. And…the best part…I KNOW my jeans will fit by the end of the challenge…and that really is the best feeling ever.
Day 1 recap:
Everything is so new and exciting the first day. It always suprises me how much you can really eat and still lose weight if it is the right food.
: Oatmeal Bake (loved it)
: Protein Bar (I actually eat these on the regular...they are made here in Austin)
Street Tacos (one of their new menu items...first time trying them...so good. I think they changed up their corn tortillas and I really like it
Chicken Fruit Bowl (suprised at how many walnuts I got to eat!)
Southwest Chicken Salad (Loved how big it was..I could barely finish it was so big)
Truth: The hardest part was going to an event with HBO and ATX TV Festival to watch 'Girls' at Max's Wine Dive. Free wine and fried chicken. I don't know how I got by on water while all my friends ate what was apparently the best fried chicken ever...but I did it. Win! You can't drink on the challenge, but I have wanted to stop drinking for awhile so it was kind of nice to have an excuse not to drink.

- "My dad's a milkman, he couldn't believe it either..."

Mr. Creevey was the father of Colin and Dennis Creevey. A Muggle, Mr. Creevey was employed as a milkman, and was astonished to learn that his elder son, Colin, was a wizard. Colin sent plenty of photographs home to his father during his first year at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry in 1992, a high proportion, presumably, of Harry Potter, who was an object of near-worship for young Colin.[1]
He might also possibly have been astonished to learn that his younger son, Dennis was also a wizard and was possibly extremely proud of them and was also proud of the Wizarding World. Nothing is known about his wife, but she was also a Muggle.
On May 2, 1998, his elder son was killed during the Battle of Hogwarts, possibly by the Killing Curse.
