Thomas County, GA, December 12, 2012 - Authorities have captured Thomas County Jail escapee, Jerry Darrin Ross.
Robert Greer, the warden for the Thomas County Prison has confirmed that around 7:30 Wednesday morning the U.S. Marshall Service and Fugitive Task Force out of New York caught up with Ross at a hotel in New York.
Greer said they were able to track Ross's whereabouts after Ross's mother gave investigators his cell phone number. They then used GPS to track his location, which led them to the hotel.
Ross had been working for a tree service out of Ocala, Florida.
Ross was out on prison work detail at Country Oaks Municipal Golf Course in Thomas County back in September when he escaped.
Ross will be extradited back to Georgia and faces charges in Grady and Thomas County.
Thomas County, GA - September 25, 2012 5:12 PM

"We the People" was the refrain used by President Obama throughout his inaugural speech today. And it was also the theme of the Martin Luther King, Jr. celebration in Portland, where more than 600 people gathered for the 32nd annual breakfast sponsored by the Portland NAACP. As Patty Wight reports, part of the focus this year, is to form a more perfect union by engaging youth in democracy and justice.
Left to right, Mohamed Nur, Fatma Adnad and Rachel Talbot Ross at today's MLK Breakfast in Portland.
The NAACP is renewing its spirit, says Maine state director and Portland chapter President Rachel Talbot Ross. Over the past year, the organization has worked with youth to study the nation's founding documents. And Ross says the whole idea is to move phrases like "We the People" out of nostalgia and into the present.
"And really trying to get them to understand they are the 'We' in the people. We need to reclaim that. We need to live it, believe it, encourage others to know it and use that as our rallying cry for justice," Ross says.
In that spirit, the breakfast opened with high school students like Sahara Hassan sharing their thoughts about how they interpret the guiding principles contained in those founding documents.
"Though our forefathers said, 'With liberty and justice for all,' they meant liberty and justice for themselves - or, white, land-owning men," she said.
Hassan came to the U.S. five years ago from Kenya, and she says Martin Luther King is her hero. Without his work on racial equality, she doesn't think she'd be in the U.S. today, where, she says, she has freedom and opportunity.
"This is where my future lies," she says. "I'm safe here, and my family's safe, and that's the most important thing to me."
Hassan and other high schoolers shared the stage at the breakfast with local politicians and social leaders, who spoke about a range of issues, from gun control - since Dr. King himself was a victim of gun violence - to support for local boys' and girls' clubs.
But the over-arching theme of the morning was about peace, love, and tolerance. Mohamed Nur was one of two high schoolers who served as master of ceremonies.
"My family's from Somalia, a place where the beloved community is struggling to exist, where love and trust once dominated the land, now fear and hatred overshadows it," Nur said. "I share Dr. King's dream for a beloved community, and hopefully in the future, I can re-establish his dream back into my home."
While some high schoolers connected Martin Luther King to issues with their home countries, Sahra Hassan, originally from Somalia, says King has helped her with challenges she faces in the U.S. She remembers being bullied in elementary school about her religion and culture.
"If someone said that to me, I'd, like, say it back to them, I'd be mean to them," she says. "But because of him, in middle school, I decided they were just saying that to make me mad and to annoy me."
Now, she says, she just brushes it off. Despite the inspiration and change affected by Martin Luther King, NAACP state director Rachel Talbot Ross says there's still a lot of work to do. This year, she says, the Maine NAACP will focus on closing racial and ethnic achievement gaps in education, as well as access to heath care.

May 2008
By Lawrence P. Farrell Jr.
Discussions about the impending collision between military needs and resources mostly occur in the context of service priorities. But what about the industrial base? What does a future of possibly declining budgets hold for large prime contractors and thousands of lower tier subs that supply piece parts, assemblies, components and subsystems? And what about service providers and, especially, the ammunition sector?
It is probably not too early to contemplate what sectors of the U.S. defense industrial base should brace for a hard landing after the huge war supplemental budgets begin to wane.
The nation's brief industrial base history is rife with examples of the effects of rapidly decreasing budgets driven by shifting priorities. When priorities change, the tendency is for budgets to shift quickly with little regard for what happens to the sectors that are losing business. Most recently, we witnessed the "procurement holiday" of the 90's, which was preceded by a major drawdown. Some of the more noticeable effects have been consolidations, mergers, industry shrinkage and market exit.
In a June 2007 National Defense article, Bill Holmes and Bob Seraphin documented an 80 percent funding reduction for ammunition between 1985 and 1994. "More than 70 percent of the firms that had participated in the manufacture of munitions exited the field, never to return," the authors pointed out.
Little consideration was given to the potential effects of this drop and hardly any planning was done.
There was virtually no predictability for the industry, and a majority of the firms had little choice but to leave.
In other areas one also sees attrition of critical skills and design teams as fewer acquisition programs are offered. As a result, the potential for competition decreases and the services face a much-reduced competitive environment for subsequent procurements.
The fiscal and political storm clouds are gathering. Sometime in the next several years — maybe sooner than later — U.S. combat duties in Iraq will begin to power down as we transition more to training and stability operations. Given the economic realities and pull from other national budget accounts, there will be a run on the defense supplemental budget and most likely, too, on the baseline budgets. A substantial amount of procurement dollars has been inserted into supplemental budgets in recent years, especially for reset/recap, ammunition and even major platforms. It would not be unreasonable to expect a precipitous budget decline to ravage some sectors of the industry. In that case, what is to prevent a "fast rat gets the cheese" scenario?
What is needed is a rational approach to baseline defense needs ahead of the funding decline, so the industry can land softly.
The Defense Department and industry need to jointly decide how to do this, and determine what skills and production capacity need to be protected. Holmes and Seraphin noted that the failure to do so results ultimately in fiscally inefficient rescues, when it becomes apparent after the fact that a critical sector is on life support. They pointed out that the Pentagon added more than $2 billion and Congress an additional $2 billion in the 1995-2002 period for ammunition. This infusion along with the increased demand of the Iraq and Afghanistan conflicts have saved ammo producers for now, but the industry sees the looming financial crisis and the need for a "soft landing."
NDIA's Industrial Committee of Ammunition Producers has created a "soft landing subcommittee," which joined forces with the Joint Munitions Command and Program Executive Office for Ammunition to study the issue in depth and to devise both short- and long-term strategies to deal with the coming budget reductions. The subcommittee has thus far fostered improved communication between companies in this sector and government agencies, and has completed a white paper on the issue.
The group also has begun the process of defining an objective industrial base for munitions, and advocating the structure and size of the base that is derived from anticipated future requirements. It seeks a predictable glide slope to a "defined objective base."
The subcommittee recognizes and assumes an inevitable downturn in defense funding and it is prepared to suggest the appropriate adjustments for the industry. There is a joint understanding by both industry and government that the situation is critical and if not managed properly, great damage will be done to the ammunition industrial base. It is encouraging that one of the objectives of the subcommittee is to try to preserve competition going forward.
We should applaud this most prescient initiative. It is an example of how other sectors in the industrial base should respond. If the U.S. military is to remain in the lead on the battlefield, the nation must retain the industrial capacity to continue to produce the best systems in the world. Technology is our edge. That requires critical industrial skills, world-class design teams, top-notch production facilities and processes.To support these capabilities, the Defense Department needs to continue to procure systems in critical sectors, otherwise industrial capability will attrit, never to return, or if returning, only at a much greater cost than if the industry remained engaged at a reasonable level.
Thus, the Defense Department, Congress and industry representatives in all vulnerable sectors need to start preparing now to avoid the carnage caused by the shortsighted policies of the past.

Now let's look at the steps involved to load and fire the modern inline percussion muzzleloader. These must be performed each time you want to use this firearm. Practice often! You'll become more accomplished at it, the more often you do this.
Pour black powder from the powder flask into the powder measurer.
Using the powder measurer, pour the measured black powder into the barrel.
Press the bullet into the muzzle.
Using the small end or round end of a bullet starter, gently push the bullet into the barrel.
Push the bullet farther into the barrel by using the longer end of a bullet starter.
Hold the ramrod about 6 inches from the muzzle. Take your time and use short strokes to seat the projectile firmly upon the powder charge so that there is no airspace between the projectile and the powder charge. An air space here can cause a dangerous pressure build-up when firing.
When the mark on your ramrod lines up with the top of the muzzle, the bullet is now seated on top of the charge.
Keeping the muzzle pointed in a safe direction, apply the safety if your firearm has one.
Using the priming tool, seat the percussion cap onto the nipple.
Make sure you wear appropriate eye protection while shooting. Once you are ready, properly identify the target as well as what is before and beyond the target. Line up your sights, disengage the safety if your firearm has one, pull the hammer back to the cocked position and gently squeeze the trigger.

Carbs are not the enemy people. If it were as simple as just drastically reducing carbs to get lean then why don't many stay that way? Becasue what they are doing isn't sustainable long term. Yes you can drop carbs and lose fat, but guess what when you start eating them again after you have lost the fat guess what may happen, a nice big rebound effect and fat gain.
If you want long term results you have to have a nutrition plan that serves 2 main purposes. 1) fuel the body with enough nutrients to properly function 2) Be sustainable long term. Its not just about carbs, it comes down to the right balance of macros for the INDIVIDUAL, not just one macronutrient. I have way more clients that perform better and stay leaner with a carb based diet than I do with a fat based ones (I do have some that function better with fat than carbs). Now I'm not saying you don't need fats because they are essential, you just need enough to serve the body's functions. You need enough carbs to fuel the body and spare your protein for muscle repair.
Its all about balance. When it comes to losing fat you want to be in a relative calorie deficit, not an absolute one, and give the body scheduled re-feeds to stoke the metabolic rate

What may be North Carolina's final sales tax holiday time for quite some time has started.
The state's annual weekend exempting sales taxes from purchases of certain energy efficient home appliances began at midnight Friday and runs through late Sunday night.
The holiday applies to Energy Star-labeled clothes washers, refrigerators and freezers, air conditioners, ceiling fans and programmable thermostats and other products. Business purchases don't qualify.
The General Assembly passed a tax overhaul law this year that repealed the sales tax weekends on Energy Star appliances and the one held every August for clothing, computers and school supplies and sports equipment. The holidays won't occur in 2014 and beyond.

Posted by FLOR | Filed under Musings, The 8th FLOR series
Now that we have moved our offices from the charming Western Chicago suburb of Elmhurst to the heart of downtown Chicago, we're finding that more and more friends are finding time to stop by for coffee, lunch, a quick tour of our new digs or just to say "hello".
With such an array of incredible design minds and personalities, we thought it would be great to share snip-its of those conversations with you. We're calling these collective interviews, The 8th FLOR Series. We find these casual exchanges enlightening and inspiring, and hope you do too.
We're pleased to launch this series with our friend and collaborator, Tereasa Surratt.
This author, blogger, designer, camp counselor (you'll understand more in a second) has her hands in just about everything from advertising and commercial design to styling to home/property renovation to writing and blogging to … well, you get the idea.
Tereasa's first book, A Very Modest Cottage, tells the tale of how she found and renovated an abandoned and dilapidated cabin into a charmingly beautiful guest cottage at Wandewega, (a quintessential resort/summer camp property in Wisconsin owned by Tereasa and her husband, David Hernandez). In her latest book, Found, Free & Flea, Tereasa provides incredible hints and tips on how to redecorate on the tiniest of budgets by re-purposing old into new.
Learn what makes this self-labeled "obsessive compulsive collector" tick, see what inspires her and hear what's next on her ever-growing "to do" list.

First lady Michelle Obama is traveling to the electoral battleground of Florida on Wednesday to announce that 2,000 businesses around the country have hired or trained more than 125,000 military veterans and spouses in the past year, exceeding a White House goal of 100,000 by the end of next year.
Buoyed by those numbers, Obama planned to announce that the same companies have committed to hire or train an additional 250,000 veterans and military spouses by 2014, the White House said. That includes hiring or training 50,000 military spouses within three years — and helping them keep those jobs as families move from one duty station to another.
"More and more businesses are recognizing that hiring veterans is good for their bottom line, and they are making bold commitments to bring veterans into their ranks," said Brad Cooper, executive director of the first lady's Joining Forces effort.
Obama planned to announce the new commitments at Naval Station Mayport in Jacksonville. She was to be joined by Vice Adm. Scott Van Buskirk, chief of naval personnel.
In April 2011, the first lady and Jill Biden, wife of the vice president, launched Joining Forces to encourage Americans to support military families and veterans. The White House said the hiring push has helped to reduce unemployment among veterans from 8.6 percent in July 2011 to 6.9 percent last month.
Labor Department statistics show the unemployment rate for veterans of the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan is at 8.9 percent, above the national rate of 8.3 percent. For veterans under 24, the unemployment rate was 19.9 percent in July.

A person familiar with the situation tells The Associated Press that an 8-year-old-boy has been killed in the explosions near the finish line of the Boston Marathon.
Police say three people were killed in the blasts. They provided no details, but someone who spoke to a friend of the family and spoke to the AP on condition of anonymity to protect the family's privacy confirmed that an 8-year-old boy was among the dead.
The person said the boy's mother and sister were also injured as they waited for his father to finish the race.
The explosions injured at least 144 people, 17 critically.

Where Should Your Child Sleep?
Dr. Phil does not support parents and children regularly sharing a bed, which is known as co-sleeping. In his view, having children in the parental bed can be very disruptive to a healthy adult relationship, and can also cause regressive behavior on the part of the child.
If it's difficult for your child to sleep alone, Dr. Phil suggests discussing the issue during daylight hours — not at bedtime. Establish rules, and make it clear that your bedroom is off limits for sleeping. Comfort your child by being available, but allow co-sleeping only on special circumstances (such as the occasional thunderstorm).
Get kids excited about the independence of sleeping in their own room. Make a game out of it, giving them gold stars or rewards for making progress. Start a new habit of going into your child's room and reading a bedtime story — but do not sleep there. To help a child overcome fear of the dark, Dr. Phil suggests buying a lamp dimmer, so that with "successive approximations" — not one big leap — the child will feel more comfortable and safe. It may be difficult at first, but in a short time, children will develop their own methods of soothing themselves and feel safe, secure and comfortable under their own covers.
Still, Dr. Phil acknowledges that there are reputable sources on both sides of the debate:
The Pros
1) Babies sleep longer through the night (Dr. Sears)
2) No nighttime separation anxiety (Dr. Sears, Dr. Phil)
3) Easier to breast feed at night (Dr. Sears)
4) Time to bond with baby (Dr. Sears, Dr. Phil)
5) Studies show decreased chance of SIDS (Dr. Sears, James K. McKenna, PhD)
The Cons
1) Parents can roll over on baby (AAP; CPSC)
2) Baby can fall off the bed (AAP; CPSC)
3) Baby can fall between wall and headboard (American AAP; CPSC)
4) Baby can suffocate in loose bedding (AAP; CPSC)
5) May interfere with sex life and intimacy (Dr. Phil)
6) Creates co-dependency (Dr. Schmitt M.D., Dr. Phil)
7) Does not reduce chance of SIDS (AAP; CPSC)
CPSC - The Consumer Product Safety Commission
AAP - American Academy of Pediatrics

(a) Authority to establish and modify
Notwithstanding any other provision of law, the Secretary may establish reasonable filing and service fees and reasonable charges, and commissions with respect to applications and other documents relating to the public lands and may change and abolish such fees, charges, and commissions.
(b) Deposits for payments to reimburse reasonable costs of United States
The Secretary is authorized to require a deposit of any payments intended to reimburse the United States for reasonable costs with respect to applications and other documents relating to such lands. The moneys received for reasonable costs under this subsection shall be deposited with the Treasury in a special account and are hereby authorized to be appropriated and made available until expended. As used in this section "reasonable costs" include, but are not limited to, the costs of special studies; environmental impact statements; monitoring construction, operation, maintenance, and termination of any authorized facility; or other special activities. In determining whether costs are reasonable under this section, the Secretary may take into consideration actual costs (exclusive of management overhead), the monetary value of the rights or privileges sought by the applicant, the efficiency to the government processing involved, that portion of the cost incurred for the benefit of the general public interest rather than for the exclusive benefit of the applicant, the public service provided, and other factors relevant to determining the reasonableness of the costs.
(c) Refunds
In any case where it shall appear to the satisfaction of the Secretary that any person has made a payment under any statute relating to the sale, lease, use, or other disposition of public lands which is not required or is in excess of the amount required by applicable law and the regulations issued by the Secretary, the Secretary, upon application or otherwise, may cause a refund to be made from applicable funds.

Hi, my name is Tony and I am a Hypochondriac, but I prefer to label myself as having health anxiety. And I only prefer to use that term because the word hypochondriac is just too long of a word. Now I know many people say they are a hypochondriac, but I have seriously struggled with it. This was especially true in my twenties when I would go to the doctor for blood work on almost a weekly basis. I was also sure that I had every terminal illness known to mankind during those years.
In my thirties and forties I began to manage the anxiety somewhat, but if I got the least little bit sick then I would assume it was cancer. I should have said that already...cancer has been my largest anxiety causing disease.
So you can only imagine how I have felt the last couple of years as my wife has had to deal with Melanoma, other forms of skin caner, and then recently my dermatologist found a precancerous spot on my lip. Yes these things would cause anyone to have anxiety, but when your entire adult life has been focused on the fear of the "C Word" then when it actually happens it rattles your anxious body all the way to the bone. And it definitely throws a psychological wrench into how you deal with the anxiety.
One of the reasons this is embarrassing for me to admit is because I am a licensed counselor so you would think that I could have cured myself, but that isn't the way it works. So I have turned to some friends, gotten my own counselor, and started doing some research. Below I have copied and pasted something from Dr. Alice Boyes' blog that I hope will help you if you are struggle with health anxiety. It is something that I hope has caused much of my anxiety and it is called catastrophizing.

Do you have a life insurance policy that you no longer need for its original purpose? Are your children grown and self-supporting? Will your family be well taken care of thanks to other assets that you will be leaving to them?
A paid-up life insurance policy can make a great gift to Barnard. In order to claim a current charitable income tax deduction for a gift of a paid-up policy, you must name the College as owner and beneficiary of the policy. The value of the gift is the cost basis or cash surrender value of the policy, whichever is less. (Please note: The donor of a life insurance policy is responsible for obtaining an independent qualified appraisal, which is required by the IRS for noncash charitable gifts valued over $5,000.) Premium payments for a life insurance policy for which Barnard is both the owner and beneficiary may be treated as charitable gifts; please consult with your personal advisers.
To name Barnard as a beneficiary of a life insurance policy, the following information may be helpful:
Official name: BARNARD COLLEGE
3009 Broadway - Planned Giving
New York, NY 10027
Taxpayer Identification Number (TIN): 13-1628149
(sometimes called Employer Identification Number, or EIN)
For other questions about gifts of life insurance, please contact Audra Lewton, Director of Gift and Estate Planning, at email@example.com or (212) 870-2534.
If you have named Barnard College as the owner and beneficiary of your life insurance policy, or even as the beneficiary only, please let us know so we can enroll you in The Athena Society. Thank you!
Gift in Action
Pat '63 had a life insurance policy that she purchased early in her career. After she reached age 65, the annual premiums were set to double. She no longer felt that she needed the policy because she had other assets to leave to her family and she just couldn't see spending the money on the annual premiums any longer. After talking to her financial adviser, she decided she would donate the policy to Barnard. Pat and her financial adviser discussed the plan with Barnard's Planned Giving office and they all worked together to make Barnard the owner and beneficiary of the policy. Pat understood that Barnard would immediately surrender the policy and put the cash proceeds to work for students right away. She designated the proceeds from the policy for The Barnard Fund, knowing that support of the College's day-to-day needs is crucial. Pat was extremely happy about this plan—she could not have otherwise made a gift of that size and she was able to take a sizeable income tax charitable deduction in the year the policy was transferred to Barnard (she worked with an independent qualified appraiser to obtain the IRS-required qualified appraisal to substantiate the value of her gift).

Lie detection is Maggie's and Charles's ability to sense if someone is lying to them.
- "She is able to tell if a person is lying."
- ―Entry on Maggie's gift [src]
Maggie can sense if a person is lying to her or to someone else.
Maggie can sense a lie by being in close proximity to someone. A person didn't have to speak for her to know if he or she was behaving in a way contrary to their beliefs. If anyone misrepresented themselves in either appearance or action, Maggie could feel it automatically.
However this also has a side effect, as any kind of deception made her physically uncomfortable.
Maggie can only sense when someone is lying, without necessarily sensing the reason for it or the intentions of the liar.
When Maggie was human, she always knew when a person was lying with their words, which compelled her to always point out the lie. This made others feel uncomfortable around her as they could never lie in her presence, prompting her parents to leave her behind when they immigrated to America.
Breaking Dawn
- "... She had a gift for knowing when she was being lied to, and her verdicts were never contested."
- ―Bella's description of Maggie's talent.[src]
When Maggie and her coven is approached by the Cullens' cry for help, Maggie senses their honesty and agrees to be their witness against the Volturi. After Alistair - one of the witnesses - fled for fear of the Volturi, Maggie still decides to stay behind and help.
During the Volturi confrontation, when Aro tells Renesmee he has no desire to hurt her family, Maggie hisses at his lie.
- "Charles can sense when someone is lying to him."
- ―Entry on Charles's gift[src]
Charles can sense whether a person is lying to him. It has not been explained how different from Maggie's this gift is, but it appears to be less pronounced than hers.
- "It is not what I see, but what I feel. Garrett said they have ways of knowing lies. I, too, know when I am hearing the truth, and when I am not."
- ―Charles's description of his power.[src]
When Charles is first approached by the Volturi's offer to witness their punishment on the Cullens, he senses no dishonesty from their behalf and so complies to their wishes. However, when he and his mate, Makenna, arrive in Forks, Charles senses the Cullens' honesty in their testimony, being falsely blamed for a crime they did not commit, and also newfound dishonesty from the Volturi. He gives his witness and then leaves with his mate.
Similar abilities
- Aro's ability of tactile telepathy allows him to read people's minds and determine if they were telling the truth as well as access to every thought they ever had.
- In the Black and Uley packs, all members' minds are connected to each other when they are in wolf forms, allowing them to read each other's thoughts. This enables a degree of teamwork unimaginable otherwise and essential in collaborative activities requiring high coordination, like hunting or battle, or when the pack is spread over vast areas. No privacy exists in the team. When a pack member shifts his allegiance to another Alpha, his mental connection with the previous pack breaks, to reform with the new one. It is interesting to note that Alphas in telepathic connections can control the thoughts they share.
- Edward Cullen's ability of telepathy allows him to read people's minds from a distance, which serves as a means to secure if they were telling the truth about something.
- Marcus' ability power of relationship identification allows him to detect the type and intensity of relationship that people share between them.

Residents in west side neighborhood are still stunned by the attempted kidnapping of an area woman.
Police say a woman was walking home when a man got out of his car and grabbed her arm. She was able to break free; he was scared off by neighborhood activity and drove away.
The incident happened Wednesday night around 7:30 near Thorndale Park, which is in the area of 23rd and Uintah.
Investigators searched the park and the surrounding area, but were unable to locate him.
"Shock, shock...this is a really nice neighborhood. Lived here a long time. My mom brought us up here, I'm bringing my kids up...just shock," Jenny Kirksey said.
"I guess that could happen to anyone, anywhere, and so you always have to pay attention to the surroundings," Sarah Sacco told 11 News.
Police say they do believe this man is a threat to the community.
"The biggest concern is one: first of all she's ok. Secondly, we don't want to see this sort of thing happen again," Colorado Springs Sergeant Jim Jeffcott said.
That suspect is described as a white man and unkempt. He's about 6 feet tall, roughly 200 pounds and fit. He's possibly in his 30s and last seen driving a green, older model SUV with Wyoming license plates.
If you have any information about the man or this crime you're asked to call police at 444-7000 or Crime Stoppers at 634-STOP.

text: The man who saved the BBC BBC 15 April 09 by Kabir Chibber Anthony Rose was not a happy man. In December 2007, which was less than a month away, the British Broadcasting Corporation was due to debut the iPlayer, its highly anticipated video-on-demand service. And, despite the years of work on the project, it simply wasn't good enough. Rose, who had arrived three months earlier as the iPlayer's latest boss, thought that users would find the service too difficult to use. But first he had to make his case to the BBC's tired Future Media & Technology team. So, pulling a chair up to a computer, he asked his assistant to find her favourite BBC show, Friday Night with Jonathan Ross. "It was a disaster," Rose recalls. "It went wrong in ways we couldn't even imagine." First, she clicked links that didn't go anywhere. She couldn't return to the main page. And the search didn't work properly. Finally, when she did find the page, it had no guest information, meaning that she couldn't be sure whether she'd already seen that episode. Rose sat back. The rest of the iPlayer team looked at each other. Maybe they should listen to what this guy had to say.Rose's philosophy on the iPlayer, which allows audiences in the UK to watch and listen to programmes online up to seven days after their initial broadcast, is simple: "It has to appeal to Mrs Smith, aged 65, who just wants to watch EastEnders, as well as the Twitterati," he says. In other words, everyone. In terms of audience behaviour, the iPlayer has redefined television and how we view it. It accounts for seven to ten per cent of the UK's total online traffic - and reached 20 per cent during the 2008 Beijing Olympics. Last December, the BBC had 41 million requests to view programmes using the service. "It seems every generation has a media revolution," Greg Dyke, then BBC director general, said in a speech in 2003. "For my mother, it was radio; for me, it was television; and for my children, it's digital." The BBC has often been seen as more than a broadcaster. At various points in its long history (it is 82 years old in October), the corporation has been an innovator in both content and engineering.Who do think you are? Dyke had asked the then 34-year-old Ashley Highfield to head the BBC's New Media & Technology group (later to be called Future Media and Technology) in 2000. Even with his experience at NBC Europe and Flextech, Highfield was a surprising choice - he was, at the time, the youngest ever member of the BBC's executive board. It was clear the media landscape was changing but this was in the days before YouTube, BitTorrent and iTunes. Dyke later acknowledged the "second phase of the digital revolution", which put public money behind digital distribution, but no one knew which way it would go. When Highfield arrived, the BBC's website was not even in the UK's ten most-viewed. "I wanted to prepare the BBC for the digital age and keep it relevant," says Highfield, the man now most likely to be credited by broadcasting historians with bringing the corporation into the 21st century. An engineer and business-school-trained management consultant, Highfield had run interactive services at Flextech, the pay-TV operator that is now part of Virgin Media. He understood that pushing the BBC online meant passing control from the bosses to the users. This was considered radical, almost heresy, to insiders used to a world where the only editorial viewpoint was the BBC's. "I was trying to create centres of excellence and stitch it together, as it was basically a set of feudal fiefdoms," Highfield says. He began modestly. Projects included a celebrity stock exchange, Celebdaq, and h2g2, a Douglas Adams fansite that he brought out of liquidation in 2001. Yet his stock rose rapidly as his division expanded. His budget doubled in his first year to just over £100 million in 2001. By 2006, his resources had surged to £400 million. In 2004, the BBC finally bet the bank on Highfield. It announced that it was developing an interactive media player and that trials would be completed by December 2005. The BBC, it declared, would make its "content available to audiences when and where they want it". The BBC would be on demand. The future that Highfield had promised seemed only a few steps away.But Highfield's style and his ambitions won him enemies. His decisions to bring inHis decisions to bring in Erik Huggers from Microsoft as his deputy (in 2007), and to use Microsoft's digital rights management (DRM) software, were among the touchpoints. Critics also asked what had happened to the Creative Archive, the BBC's much-publicised bid to open its past content to the public. In 2006, Tom Coates wrote on his blog, plasticbag.org, about his time working as a senior online producer at the BBC. Entitled "Who's afraid of Ashley Highfield?", his post suggested that Highfield's only experience with Web 2.0 was a Flickr page that had shown him on a private jet "ogling half-naked dancing girls". The post was wildly popular within the BBC, allegedly passed around by senior executives with glee, and it generated ten pages of comments. Off the record, some of his former colleagues today dismiss Highfield as a Paul Smith-suit-wearing, Ferrari-driving incompetent who got lucky and took credit for the success of others. But he seems unruffled by the criticism."There were a lot of people in the BBC who wanted it to fail," he says. "The more successful I was meant that more money could potentially be taken away from other departments." But Coates says the criticism had much wider causes. "It's not just the iPlayer, but how long did it take? How much money did it take them? How many people? What were the arguments about? What else didn't get made? Those are the real issues."

Vol State Students Design Android Phone Apps
Submitted on January 31, 2013 at 10:32 AM
Understanding computer programming is the key to an ever-growing world of new technology. Seeing the value in learning the raw technical skills can be tough for college students. Volunteer State Community College has a new approach that you can literally hold in your hand. Vol State students are developing applications for Android mobile phones in a Computer Information Systems class. The idea is to help students see the value of programing and also teach them to think like a programmer.
"This course was designed to be preparation for our first programming class. With Google App Inventor all you have to do is have the correct thought process," said Vol State Associate Professor Dan Arena. "It's cool. Within a couple of weeks students were writing programs for app development."
Two of the student group projects are already available commercially. Student teams designed "Donut Text" as a way for texters to send automatic replies while they are driving and also have the text read aloud. "EchoTxt" takes those features one step further, by allowing texters to speak and send a reply text simply by shaking the phone.
"I was the group leader for EchoTxt. It was my first time being in charge," said Casey Meador of Westmoreland. "It was really fun and also frustrating at times. We would get in and do something and it wouldn't work. Then we would all get together and work out a solution. That was cool."
Each group had students with a wide range of experiences. Henry Forson of Lebanon worked with the Donut Text team. He's a software engineer for Toshiba. He says students with less experience did well.
"I think they were getting the basics of it," Forson said. "There are certain fundamental aspects of programing that App Inventor allows you to do, without knowing a lot of programming. Historically in beginning programming classes about half of the students don't complete. We didn't have that."
"It was great to have such an enthusiastic group of students who ran with the idea," said Arena.
The Vol State students even helped out the Massachusetts Institute of Technology along the way. MIT manages the App Inventor program used in the class. The Vol State students noticed a possible problem while developing their apps. They notified MIT developers who realized that they had a bug in their latest version. MIT even loaded a special server with a patched version so that the Vol State students could finish their projects on time.
The Vol State student apps can be downloaded for Android phones by putting the title of the app in a Google search. They are free. For more information about Computer Information Systems (CIS) at Vol State visit: www.volstate.edu/CIS. The app development class is INFS 111.

text: He is turning 66, and, incredibly, still writing songs we're putting on repeat. For the first time in ten years, David Bowie has released a new album, and it's available today (January 8th), exclusively on iTunes. The video for the single "Where Are We Now?" feels appropriately stripped-down, considering the choice to forgo the major-label route he's indulged in the past. Directed by Tony Oursler, it features Bowie as one of the video artist's signature dolls, snuggled up to a silent friend. The extra footage and the song tell a somber story—readable in the lyrics, typed out fan-vid style over the action—set in a somber Berlin. This is a humble Bowie but a strong and aware one, with little to no irony. Coming from a career track that has emphasized all levels of pretension, this newest version of the godfather of glam is a simple man, with simple emotions, expressed in a stunning album, full of lovingly written, fully original (and catchy) material. How could anyone have expected less?

Today this proud tradition of metalwork continues with beautiful cutlery etched with this enduring emblem. Handcrafted in Japan, the long, slender sujihiki (slicing) knife is a favorite for slicing meats and fish.

Vacation Packages
Cover the heartland of Europe on this exciting multi-country adventure with focus on colorful Italy. Begin with one night in London, then cross the English Channel by ferry and board a motorcoach bound for Brussels. A comfortable ride on the German Autobahn takes you south into Bavaria, with an overnight in the lovely Ulm area on the banks of the Danube. Cross through Tyrolean Austria over Fern Pass to reach the magical Italian city of Venice with its enchanting canals and impressive St. Mark's Square. Visit Assisi to admire Giotto's frescoes in St. Francis' Basilica, then to Rome, where you'll encounter iconic landmarks, like the Colosseum and Roman Forum. On the way to Sorrento, visit Montecassino and Pompeii to see the remains of the city destroyed by the eruption of Mount Vesuvius in 79 AD. Spend two nights in Sorrento and sail to the jet-set island of Capri. Heading north to Florence, stop in beautiful Orvieto to see its distinctive cathedral. Spend two nights in Renaissance Florence and see the city's many highlights—like Signoria Square and the Duomo—on the included walking tour. Have your cameras ready at the Leaning Tower of Pisa, and visit the Piazza Maggiore in Bologna before crossing into Switzerland to beautiful Lake Lugano for an overnight. See more of Switzerland on the way to Lucerne, and spend two nights in Paris with the introduction of a Local Guide and free time to discover the "City of Light" on your own.
Individual headsetsInside visits and special features: Shown in UPPERCASE in the tour description including admission charges where applicable.Sightseeing: Visits to Innsbruck, Venice, Assisi, Montecassino, Sorrento, Capri, Orvieto, Pisa, Bologna, Lugano, Lucerne
Scenic Highlights: Fern Pass, Europa Bridge, Dolomites, Venetian plains, Tuscany, Swiss Alps
Host service in London; Local Guides for city sightseeing in Rome, Pompeii, Florence, Paris; professional Tour Director while touring
Check into your hotel. Then, enjoy an afternoon in the lively British capital. Uniformed hosts are available to help you make the most of your time.
Leave London in the early morning and head through the lush English countryside to the Channel port, where you embark on your FERRY for the Continent. Here, meet your Tour Director and board your luxury coach for the drive to Brussels. (B)
A comfortable journey on the German Autobahn, traveling south into the Rhineland and past Stuttgart into Bavaria with its woods, farms, and pretty villages. Break up the journey with an optional Rhine cruise, gliding past the famous Lorelei rock. (B,D)
Drive south this morning into Austria by way of Fern Pass into Tyrol and on to its capital, Innsbruck. Continue by way of the Europa Bridge into Italy and enjoy the enchanting views of the mighty Dolomites. Descend into the valley on to the Venetian plain; then, travel eastwards to the Venice area for an overnight. (B,D)
Venice is more like a marvelous film set than a real-life city, with its criss-crossing canals, gondolas and water buses, arched bridges, palaces, and busy little piazzas. The included orientation starts with a BOAT RIDE and is followed by some time at leisure to enjoy this unique city, and a chance to watch Venetian GLASSBLOWERS fashion their delicate objects as they did centuries ago. Don't miss the optional gondola trip, gliding along the picturesque canals with a local troubadour to serenade you. (B)
An interesting drive southward, cutting across the Po Plain, then through the gentle Umbrian hills to Assisi, where St. Francis was born in 1182. Visit the world-famous BASILICA with its beautiful frescoes by Giotto, then head for Rome. (B)
The "Eternal City"—a city steeped in history, vibrantly alive and exciting, and absolutely unique! Included sightseeing with a Local Guide starts in St. Peter's Square, followed by a visit to the ROMAN FORUM and the mighty COLOSSEUM. (B)
Deeper into the south today, making a first stop in Montecassino to view the MONASTERY and ABBEY perched high above the valley. The monastery was the home of the Benedictines, founded in 529 and destroyed four times over the past centuries. The last time it was laid to ruin was in 1944 during the great Battle of Montecassino. Next is another great sight. Time stopped for the rich, aristocratic town of POMPEII with the terrible eruption of Vesuvius in 79 AD. Your Local Guide will bring the town back to life by explaining the remains of the luxurious villas, temples, theater, and forum. Just a few more miles to Sorrento, where you'll stay for the next two nights. (B)
Visit this legendary island, surrounded by rocky coastline, where the crashing sea has formed awe-inspiring caves. The town, with its pretty piazzetta, maze of streets, fashionable boutiques, and smart restaurants, is a mecca for the jet set. An optional island tour is available. (B,D)
This morning, retrace part of the route, bypassing Rome for a stop in Orvieto to visit its black basalt and yellow limestone CATHEDRAL, an excellent example of Italian Gothic architecture. Next, enjoy the extraordinary beauty of the Tuscan countryside. Overnight in Florence. (B)
Take advantage of an included excursion to Pisa this morning and enjoy the sights of the SQUARE OF MIRACLES with its Leaning Tower. In the afternoon back in Florence, a Renaissance gem and city of the Medicis. Join the included walking tour with a Local Guide, which features most of the city highlights. You will see Piazza Santa Croce; beautiful Piazza Signoria; Palazzo Vecchio; Loggia dei Lanzi; and, to top it off, Piazza del Duomo and its cathedral with the Giotto Campanile, and the magnificent East Door of the Baptistry, known as the "Gate of Paradise." This evening, dine at a local restaurant. (B,D)
This morning, drive northeast to Bologna, the capital of the Emilia-Romagna region. Stop awhile to see the twin medieval towers and lovely PIAZZA MAGGIORE. Journey northwards across the mighty Po River, through the Lombardy plains, and into Switzerland for an overnight in charming Lugano. (B)
Some truly magnificent Alpine scenery this morning as you travel into the very heart of the Swiss Alps. Once through the St. Gotthard Tunnel, you start your descent to Lucerne, perhaps rightly considered the most Swiss-looking city in the whole confederation. Today's visit takes in the impressive city walls, CHAPEL BRIDGE, ornate patrician houses lining cobblestone streets, and the LION MONUMENT, a masterful stone sculpture in honor of the heroic Swiss Guard of Louis XVI. A grand selection of optional activities completes the day: a cruise on the fjord-like lake; a funicular and cable-car ride to the 6,227-foot summit of Mount Stanserhorn; and, of course, time to shop for that very Swiss watch. Continue to your overnight hotel in the Lucerne area. (B)
Enjoy vistas of green pastures and attractive chalets with rustic timbering and luxuriant flowers. Then, into France, on the highway past some of its most famous vineyards, to Paris. Arrive in time to enjoy the optional cabaret show. (B)
One full day to explore the city that's known throughout the world for its fashions, art and museums, delicious food, and joie de vivre. Included SIGHTSEEING with a local expert shows off many of the best-known Parisian sights: La Sorbonne, Arc de Triomphe, Opéra, Madeleine, the Eiffel Tower, the Pyramid near the Louvre, the Invalides, and Champs Elysées. Optional excursions are also available. Maybe celebrate the success of your tour with a French farewell dinner. (B)
Your vacation ends with breakfast this morning. (B)

Toilet Seat Required

Champion 4 Flushing:
- Accelerator 4" flush valve – The flush starts with a piston action flush valve that lifts straight up, allowing water to pour into 4" valve opening from all directions. 1.6 gallons of water enters the bowl in less than a second - three times faster than standard 2" flush valves, and twice as fast as even performance 3" flush valves. The flush is quiet, too.
- 360 degree cleaning – Water entering the bowl does so in a sweeping 360-degree motion. This is designed to help completely clear the bowl, even while using less water.
- Powerful siphoning water jet – A perfectly positioned water jet captures the circular flow of water for optimal performance with minimal energy loss (water doesn't hit a flat spot and slow down). As waste and water exit, they are siphoned into the trapway for an unmatched push/pull one-two punch.
- 2-3/8" fully glazed trapway – Waste and water exit the toilet through a trapway that is fully glazed, which seals it and provides for a smooth surface that waste can in no way cling to. The industry-leading 2-3/8" diameter chute also allows for solids with a nearly 70% greater mass exit without clogging.
Other Technologies / Benefits:
- Everclean Surface – Using the antimicrobial properties of silver (the precious metal), Everclean Surfaces inhibit the growth of bacteria, mold, and mildew. The super smooth, baked-in, mirror-like surface not only eliminates unsightly rings, but also helps repel toilet messes.
- Right Height – Right Height bowls lift the sitting-height an additional 1.5 inches off the ground for a more comfortable seated position that is easier to get in and out of. This feature is particularly well liked by men, taller women, and the elderly.

Weddings Blog
How much work do you want to do on your wedding day?
Did you know that the average wedding takes 200-300 hours to plan? And there are a minimum of 30 "hiccups" that occur at every wedding? Hiring a professional wedding coordinator will save money, save time, and save your sanity.
Every show needs a director. As the Catering Sales Manager here at your venue, it really helps me to better serve you when you have a professional coordinator. My focus is on making sure all components of the guest seating, dining and drinking are working as planned. I want to help and will help as much as I am able but I can't possibly do everything else you might need (like bustling your gown, pinning the boutonnieres on the guys, wrangling the children, making sure the centerpieces you arranged with your florist are exactly what you ordered, making sure the cake arrives on time, cueing the DJ, etc.). Having a professional coordinator helps make everything run more smoothly which allows you to really enjoy this amazing day. And isn't that the goal? A trusted friend or family member can seem like an attractive option but when you pay a professional, THEY WORK FOR YOU. Also, your friends and family want to be able to enjoy the day with you, not be working (or worse yet, drinking too much and not doing what you asked of them). A professional coordinator can act as an objective third party when Uncle Bob gets out of line (you know which uncle I'm talking about) and their job on the day of your wedding is to make sure your dream is realized... period. This is money well spent and all your vendors, especially your venue, will thank you for this additional help. So don't "work" on your wedding day – hire a coordinator and leave it to them!
