Measure & Installation
Measuring Tips
- All of Blindsaver.com's window fashions are custom fabricated according to the dimensions given on your order.
- Measurements must be exact to ensure a proper fit. For this reason measure to the nearest 1/8".
- Always measure the exact window intended for the blind. Every window in your home is a unique opening and may differ in exact measurements.
- For accurate measurements always use a 3/4" or 1" steel tape measure.
- To eliminate mistakes first measure the width and write it down then measure the height and write it down.
- Do not take any deductions for mounting clearance on inside mounts. Deductions will be taken by the manufacturers at the factory.

Quality Education in the Benedictine Tradition
April 8, 2013
Thomas Octave, assistant professor and chair of the Saint Vincent College music department in the school of humanities and fine arts, announced that the department will be hosting a visit by international opera singer Luana DeVol on Tuesday and Wednesday, April 9 and 10. DeVol will speak to all music students on April 9 at 5:30 p.m. in room 31 of the Robert S. Carey Student Center about the business of singing and having a career as a singer. She will give a class on posture and breathing from 12:45 to 1:45 p.m in room 31 on April 10 and will also be available to talk with students individually after her two presentations. DeVol was born in California and is now a resident of Henderson, Nevada. She is semi-retired after a 25-year career singing in Europe. After serving three years in Aachen and four years in Mannheim as a member of those theaters' ensembles, she became a freelance artist and has sung in virtually all opera houses in the major cities of Germany, Austria, Italy, Switzerland and France, and has also appeared as a guest in Copenhagen, Helsinki, Buenos Aires and Abu Dhabi, the latter in October 2008. Her debut at La Scala was made as Fidelio under the baton of Lorin Maazel, which was followed by the Dyer's wife in Strauss' Die Frau Ohne Schatten under the baton of Guiseppe Sinopoli. Her Bruennhilde in Richard Wagner's Ring Cycle was heard at the Bayreuth Festival, the Vienna State Opera, the Deutsche Oper Berlin and, in 2000, in a new production in Stuttgart which garnered many accolades including that of Singer of the Year. In June 2010, she appeared as the Dyer's Wife at the Richard Strauss Festival. The singer joined the faculty of University of Nevada at Las Vegas in the fall of 2008 teaching voice and opera workshop and teaches privately at home. She has given master classes for West Bay Opera since 2004, for the International Opera Studio of the Zurich Opera since 2010, and 2012 in Aachen, Germany among others.

Inside Windows Phone #04: Using Push Notification - Part 2

Since Windows Phone doesn't allow 3rd party applications to run in the background, your code can't listen to or poll the Web for updates. However, Windows Push Notification Service overcomes this communication issue, making it possible for Windows Phone devices to receive Push Notification Messages even when applications aren't running.
Join Jorge Raastroem, Program Manager in the Windows Phone Application Platform team, and Yochay Kiriaty, Senior Technical Evangelist, as they describe what push notifications are and how they work with Windows Phone Push Notification Service.
This is the second video on this topic, including highlights to the updates made to Windows Phone Push Notification Services since the Beta tools release. You can find the first video here: Windows Phone Push Notification. Additionally, you can read Understanding Microsoft Push Notifications for Windows Phones and Understanding How Microsoft Push Notification Works – Part 2.

Hey Now,
Another Great Show!
Thx 4 the info,
Thanks for the report. I will file a bug.
Is anyone else getting an error from the Push Server: "The remote server returned an error: (404) Not Found."

Verizon to get ICS exclusive in the form of the Samsung DROID Prime
104 Comments
1. bossmt_2 (Posts: 449; Member since: 13 Oct 2009)
If it's a real Nexus phone, this is great news, If they load it with Samsungs UI, and Bing, etc. I will not be getting the phone, regardless of the processor.
7. Goldeneye (Posts: 419; Member since: 22 Jan 2011)
if its a Droid they can't "Bing it", the rest who knows, bloatware? who cares!, the Bionic, and SGSII (if it would've make it to VZW) would be full of it as well! root! anyone?
8. Lucas777 (Posts: 2137; Member since: 06 Jan 2011)
u do not understand... verizon binged all the droid phones like the fascinate for who knows why... they have the power to since they are the carrier..
10. nofan (unregistered)
You do not understand. The Fascinate was not a "Droid" phone. Droid is a brand. A series of devices with certain features. The Thunderbolt, Fascinate, and Revolution are NOT Droid phones, but they RUN Android. :) Understand now?
16. wilt1234 (unregistered)
I call all with google devices that run froyo, gingerbread, have android marketplace or with you have to set up a gmail email account etc i call it a droid which is just short for anDROID, i know they are different types but its still a android operating system. So its a droid to me a nexus with anDROID is a droid, a galaxy with anDROID operating system is a droid just a well known moniker now so no matter what the call it or whatever it will still be mainly called a DROID by buyers
20. Thump3rDX17 (Posts: 2160; Member since: 10 May 2010)
these aren't iPhones where the OS and the phone are really one in the same. Android devices have different names. use them. Droid is Verizon's branding for most of their Android phones. i think Verizon SHOULD be consistent with the brand but they're not and the Droid Moniker can make all the difference as you can see in this article.
33. Vman (unregistered)
Good. Keep doing that. You'll just sound ignorant to everyone else. It is no different than telling everyone you bought an iphone, yet showing them a samsung galaxy.
35. tedkord (Posts: 11733; Member since: 17 Jun 2009)
You can call them whatever you like, but you are still wrong. Droid is a particular branded phone, android is a mobile OS. Droid phones (which are on Verizon only) aren't Binged, they are Google only.
46. Commentator (Posts: 3692; Member since: 16 Aug 2011)
You're what's wrong with most people today...
70. shelley.bevacqua (Posts: 80; Member since: 27 Aug 2011)
I agree with you !! I always the "Droid" was just a cool name to attach to phones with Android. It's more of a marketing tool.
The other person was condescending. Right?
107. heh (unregistered)
C'mon man! Not because YOU call *anything* android "DROID", it doesn't mean they are actually droids! DROID is a name for a type of android phone that meets certain "DROID specs/features".
Look at it this way, if I call you stupid, does that mean you are? If *a lot* of people who DON'T know you call you stupid, would that mean anything to you and all those who know you (assuming you're not really stupid)?
30. Lucas777 (Posts: 2137; Member since: 06 Jan 2011)
okay my bad.. i read too quickly and misworded what i meant to say.. but idk i wish att or someone got this phone because for some reason everything on verizon has something or other being a problem..
11. Goldeneye (Posts: 419; Member since: 22 Jan 2011)
I do understand, the fascinate never was marketed as a "Driod", don't confuse "Droid" with any other Android, so far the only "Droid" phones are the Moto's, Incredibles, Charge and now the Bionic, I might be forgeting one but that is no the Fascinate
63. remixfa (Posts: 14255; Member since: 19 Dec 2008)
the samsung droid charge is a droid phone.. the fascinate was certainly not a Droid phone.
Can ICS be themed like gingerbread and other phones? Wasnt that part of the point.. to reduce the amount of creative leaway a manufacturer could take with android?
Also, on exclusively:
I'm HOPING that the "exclusivity" on this phone is on the branding.. as in "VZW is the only carrier to have the DROID prime!"... while everyone else launches the nexus prime. Sure, geeks like us will know its the same but the bulk of people will think that VZW's version is superior because of the DROID moniker. Who knows.. maybe it will be. This is VZWs chance to really have a top end brand new phone. Lets hope they dont screw it up by bloating and limiting the heck out of it.
72. Thump3rDX17 (Posts: 2160; Member since: 10 May 2010)
i've always believed the Droid Branding is an important thing for a Verizon Android phone. like you said people will assume it's superior because of Verizon's kick-ass job with marketing the things therefore it'll become a very popular and widely used phone. the more popular a phone is the more support it gets from the community, the carrier and the manufacturer which is only good for the end user.
18. Thump3rDX17 (Posts: 2160; Member since: 10 May 2010)
the Fascinate is not a DROID! why would anyone on this site think all Verizon Android phones are Droids. they're not.
40. Goldeneye (Posts: 419; Member since: 22 Jan 2011)
The worst part is that a lot of people thinks that not just Verizon's but any carrier's are Droids! Lol, BTW Droid is a trademark used by VZW under license so yeah they can sue if somebody else uses the term
93. remixfa (Posts: 14255; Member since: 19 Dec 2008)
lol, i have people coming in all the time asking that. The 2 most annoying questions in a store are "do you have an iphone" and "do you have a droid".
At least you know their marketing is working.
42. correction (unregistered)
the fascinate was not a "droid" branded phone.
51. att.arn.rno (Posts: 9; Member since: 21 Aug 2011)
I just thought droids were those robots those Stormtroopers were looking for...
108. DarkCobra (Posts: 16; Member since: 04 Oct 2009)
Remember when we just called them "phones". Well this one's a phone . . . and a cool one at that . . . end of rant.
15. jd_acura (unregistered)
It's possible that it may come with Samsung's UI, but I highly doubt it as it will be the first phone to come with Google's Ice Cream Sandwich which has been highly touted to be "pure android 4.0"...I think the bigger worry is if Verizon will be putting all of the VZW crap on it and if tethering will be free or if Verizon will force a $15 app down our throats. Either way this is great news for Verizon customers who were upset about the Galaxy S II. I was honestly contemplating settling for the Bionic.
77. iblackdroid (Posts: 67; Member since: 19 Jul 2011)
I love the SGSII, dont get me wrong... but i would much rather this with a better processor and ICS :D
82. Thump3rDX17 (Posts: 2160; Member since: 10 May 2010)
the OMAP4460 is higher clocked than an Exynos but it doesn't actually beat an Exynos.
44. narley (Posts: 357; Member since: 14 May 2009)
couldnt agree more
50. The_Miz (Posts: 1496; Member since: 06 Apr 2011)
That's why I would get an iPhone, not because it's better than Android, which it is, but because it's free from Verizon crapware.
54. zuno gyakusatsu (Posts: 257; Member since: 16 Mar 2010)
its free from Android as well which is an immediate plus and an instant boost in reliability.

As usual, the Androids fans are either butthurt or bitter because people point out the flaws.
78. sgogeta4 (Posts: 394; Member since: 02 Feb 2011)
I hope it comes with Samsung UI. Samsung has awesome software now that they've hired the best programmers from groups such as CyanogenMod. I just hope it will have a more HTC feel like the Thunderbolt and not like the SGS2, which I have both used. They won't have Bing as stated previously, the DROID moniker is Verizon's high end Google phone with Google search.
87. whoaTOOmuch (unregistered)
People are forgetting that even thought the 4460 is 300MHZ faster the gpu is an old clocked up 540 from the sg1. Also since it might not be a pure google device it will be full of bloats so at the end it will run slower than the gs2 on sprint because they can just delete all the bloat and the exynos is proven to run smoothly. Also the bigger screen might take more out of phone as well...?
91. Thump3rDX17 (Posts: 2160; Member since: 10 May 2010)
bloatware should never be a factor when you're comparing two phone's performance because the hacking community is as busy as ever. you can't knock a phone's performance because you don't want to dirty your hands a little to bring out it's full potential. this will probably have an unlocked bootloader anyway. the SGX540 may be a year old GPU now but it's still the best you can get in the states today.
88. whoaTOOmuch (unregistered)
slower gpu
2. dandirk (Posts: 187; Member since: 04 Aug 2011)
If true makes sense passing on the sgs2, at least from a technical view aka not marketing view
41. wumberpeb (Posts: 453; Member since: 14 Mar 2011)
Bottom line, this is a double tragedy for Verizon...oh great, Verizon doesn't get the GS2. Every other carrier gets the goodies! Well that sucks...Strike 1
Oh wait, they get the Nexus Prime! Awesome! Great alternative! But wait...it's not a real Nexus, it's the great hardware with all the bloatware. That'll make make it feel like a Tegra 2, which is not what people expect of the highest caliber devices
Strike 2 and 3
45. Thump3rDX17 (Posts: 2160; Member since: 10 May 2010)
it'll feel FAR FAR superior to a Tegra II phone. as far as snappiness it'll be snappier than a Galaxy S II because it'll still be stock. feel a G2x and see what i'm talking about.
52. wumberpeb (Posts: 453; Member since: 14 Mar 2011)
As far as Sprint goes, because I sell for them anyways, the Photon (Tegra2) and Evo 3d both feel a tad bit sluggish in their transition effects in the UI. I'm sure they both crank out great benchmark numbers, but what I'm personally interested to see with any phone is how smooth it feels navigating around the interface. That's why I own their Nexus S. If the Prime can compensate for the burden the bloatware and UI place on the phone, and actually feel snappy and smooth, I'll be all for it (even though its Verizon)
I'd just hate to see the debut of the Prime ruined because its bogged down with junk. This was the phone that was (supposedly) going to chew up every benchmark in its path due to both its awesome proc and its LACK of carrier modifications
62. Thump3rDX17 (Posts: 2160; Member since: 10 May 2010)
between the superior OMAP4460 and the fact that it's stock with newer and likely more efficient code from ICS it can have more bloat than anything and still feel snappier than anything you've ever seen..
80. wumberpeb (Posts: 453; Member since: 14 Mar 2011)
I hope you're right, but considering we're talking about a completely new OS, it's all up in the air
..but believe me. I hope it's the best yet from the get go
86. whoaTOOmuch (unregistered)
you forgot about the old clocked up gpu the 4460 uses. Also if the phone is full of crapware and if you don't get rid of them than the extra 300MHZ power is nothing.
92. Thump3rDX17 (Posts: 2160; Member since: 10 May 2010)
no, i didn't. it may be old but it's still good GPU. it's far from nothing if it buries the bloatware besides bloatware isn't such a huge factor, you just get rid of it.
3. Devon (unregistered)
I know what I am waiting for now. Sorry Moto.
4. lemenade (Posts: 31; Member since: 28 Jul 2011)
man it coming exclusively to Verizon totally killed my hope for it coming to sprint
12. MichaelHeller (Posts: 2703; Member since: 26 May 2011)
Verizon will get it exclusively first as the DROID Prime, but that doesn't mean the Nexus Prime won't be hitting other carriers later.
23. Thump3rDX17 (Posts: 2160; Member since: 10 May 2010)
if so then it's pretty safe to say there won't be much difference between the Droid Prime and the Nexus Prime aside from some bloatware and locked down tethering on the former and maybe 4G LTE.
25. lemenade (Posts: 31; Member since: 28 Jul 2011)
yeah but its the later part that kills me
i have been up for an upgrade since may and the prime was looking like it would be my phone to take to college
29. lemenade (Posts: 31; Member since: 28 Jul 2011)
maybe if it comes out in 2012 it will have the 4470 chipset ?
31. MichaelHeller (Posts: 2703; Member since: 26 May 2011)
I doubt the Nexus Prime will have any different hardware than the DROID Prime. And, I'd expect the Nexus to hit T-Mo and Sprint by December at the latest.
32. Thump3rDX17 (Posts: 2160; Member since: 10 May 2010)
if it comes out in 2012 it better have a OMAP5 or a Kal-El.
53. wumberpeb (Posts: 453; Member since: 14 Mar 2011)
If the Verizon bloatware is able to be removed, then this all becomes a non-issue.I just doubt that will happen
64. MichaelHeller (Posts: 2703; Member since: 26 May 2011)
Since it's still a Nexus phone at heart, I can't imagine unlocking and rooting will be difficult.
65. remixfa (Posts: 14255; Member since: 19 Dec 2008)
If it has to wait till december because of some stupid exclusivity with big red, then it better have a bump in specs somewhere. Totally agree with DX.
of course its all speculation but still!
5. Goldeneye (Posts: 419; Member since: 22 Jan 2011)
Yes! this is definitively my next phone who needs the SGSII with this bad boy? but the Vigor is very tempting as well, decisions decisions
6. FATmasters (unregistered)
idk it's name "DROID prime" and not a nexus. Also I bet verizon will be selling it for $300 with 2 year. Can't say that this will be enough to entice me to stay with verizon when I can get the gs2 for $25 plus tax. DIdn't they say that this phone is supposed to have 720 screen, but that samsung ceo announced it having super amoled plus. IDK confusing well we will all know tomorrow. sgs2 lte variant or is it nexus 3 aka droid prime?
13. MichaelHeller (Posts: 2703; Member since: 26 May 2011)
The Samsung CEO announced the LTE version of the SGS2 as Super AMOLED Plus, but that's for Europe. The DROID Prime will be on Verizon instead of the SGS2 and could still feature the Super AMOLED HD.

Fire hits apartment complex in Overland Park
American Red Cross assists displaced residents
UPDATED 7:16 AM CST Dec 27, 2012
A fire hit an apartment complex in Overland Park, displacing many of its residents Wednesday.
Firefighters said the fire was first reported about 5:30 p.m. in the 11800 block of Perry Street.
Firefighters said the blaze damaged two units of the Highland Ridge Apartments, but everyone in the 12-unit building was affected because the water was shut off due to the fire.
No injuries were reported, and firefighters said the cause of the fire remains under investigation.
The Red Cross said 17 people were affected by the fire. Most of those people had another place to stay, but two people were helped with temporary lodging.

In our modern age whenever something needs to get done, it is the masses mobilizing that gets work done.
Now we have a year to make sure we are the team to go east, not Nashville or Columbus. What can we use to get that to happen?
Well the Wings can use their leverage, but that might not be enough to get this done.
The other major tool at our advantage is our fanbase is far larger. We need to use it to make sure the league knows what we can do.
I suggest we use the internet and our brains to figure out a grassroots movement to ensure that we are the team to move east.
The best idea I can come up with is to make ourselves visible in front of the Arena every home game, and every away game with signs visibly demanding a move to the east, as well as events in front of NHL league offices in Toronto and New York.
This means those among us with the means to travel, or living in those markets need to get visible and loud.
I also suggest we start an internet movement pledging to boycott away games in the West if we don't get moved, and pledging to travel to eastern teams if we do. The best goal is to make it seem like the league will lose money if we don't get moved.
Anyone have any other ideas? Does anyone have the abilities to take leadership on this? Does anyone want to see us MOVE EAST!!!!
I have started a tweet thread. #MoveDetroitEast This is the start, Atlanta leaves to go West, Detroit is the only team that deserves to go East. Join us fans!
All you twitter addicts, start tweeting using #MoveDetroitEast and let the league know!
Can anyone get a website going called www.MoveDetroitEast.org or com or whatever?
Edit update: I have established a Facebook page and a twitter movement already!
Join me and like "Move Detroit East" On Facebook!
Tweet about #MoveDetroitEast as much as possible and spread the word we deserve to go east!
Keep up the ideas and effort, remember if social media and protests in the streets can topple dictators, it can topple Bettman!!!

Switched from MTB SPDs to these SPD A520 Road pedals. I have recessed cleats and the new road pedals take a bit getting used to as far as clipping in. More of a learning curve on my part. Once clipped in, all is good.
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Nice Pedals
By Stan
from Colorado
These cleats are very nice for the $. If you get hot spots or numbness in your feet these may be the solution as they tend to do a good job with applying pressure across a larger area of the foot.

From toe clips to road pedals
By Jan from CT
from Winsted, CT
I had been using the toe clips over the pedal which were harder to use than these. I was able to get me shoe attached to the pedal right away. They are also easy to take off. My husband attached them and did all the work but he said it was easy.
Great cross platform road cleat
By Greenrider
from Cape may n.j.
These are a great cross platform cleat. I have road bikes, mountain bikes and hybrid bikes. Using one cleat for all bikes just makes sense. im not racing but I enjoy my long rides and short commutes.
Durable Pedal
I`ve been using these pedals for 5 years and they are holding up great. Very durable. They needed breaking in at first, but once I had a couple thousand miles use on them they clip and unclip easy and spin easy. Good pedal.
Pretty Good, check bolts after each ride
By HikeCyclePhoto
from Western North Carolina
Recently got these for road riding, and generally like them. They are supposed ot be used with recessed-sole road shoes, but I got flat-bottom shoes because shoe selection seemed fairly limited for the two-bolt cleat pattern. That might be the reason for the following issue-- not sure, but I've left a message with ShimanoThat said, the cleats clip in very easily with pedals set for low tension. My only issue is with unclipping. My right shoe unclips easily; the left not so easily. Yesterday, I had trouble clipping in on the left side. When I stopped to take a break, I was unable to unclip the left shoe, even after unclipping and standing on my right foot. So, I had to open the Velcro shoe closures, remove my foot from the shoe (While standing on one foot-- not so easy. Then, I was just able to twist the left shoe out of the pedal. The reason? One bolt was gone from the cleat; the other was loose, as was the cleat. I was lucky enough to have the correct hex wrench to tighten the lone bolt, and finish my ride with no problem.Check bolts after every ride!
Pretty Nice Pedals
I purchased these for a used road bike I recently purchased. The original platform pedals had to go-- and fast!I like SPD pedals and cleats, as walking in the cleats is almost normal.With these I purchased shoes without a recessed cleat area. In spite of that, clipping in is easy and sure. Both pedals were factory set to be REALLY tight, and difficult to use. A 3MM hex key took care of that. Now, clipping in is easy, but unclipping varies. My right shoe unclips easily. My left is tighter in the release. I have to check the tension on the left show, though I think it's adjusted to near its lightest setting.All in all, I like these pedals. Even at a lighter setting, they offer great security, light weight, and very good value.I ride 50-70 miles per week, though last week 111 miles, and today, with these pedals, 50.

«Allegra» - is the romantic greeting with which visitors are welcomed to Zernez. The year-round rail connection with a car transport service through the Vereina Tunnel has made the holiday resort of Zernez (1474 metres above sea level) in the uppermost part of the Lower Engadine and close to the Flüela and Ofen Mountain Passes even more easily accessible. First and foremost Zernez is the gateway to the Swiss National Park and location of the "National Park House" information centre. And Zernez is also a perfect starting point for excursions in the direction of the Lower Engadine (Scuol), the Upper Engadine (St. Moritz, Pontresina), via the Flüela Pass to Davos or over the Ofen Pass to the Münster Valley.
The guests can find accommodation in hotels, vacation apartments, tourist camps, and private rooms as well as on the large campground on the Inn River.
The National Park – measuring 170.3 square kilometres the biggest nature preserve in Switzerland – offers a unique wealth of Alpine animals and plants in untouched, wild mountain countryside. A hiking network provides the perfect opportunity to explore the park. Just outside the city precincts there is not only a network of hiking trails but also a fantastic biking trail network.
The three Nordic Walking Trails offer further sports activities, as does the Vita Parcours in the forest. A family and wellness spa, a minigolf-course and a playground add to the infrastructure and further enhance the visitor's experience.
In winter Zernez offers cross-country skiers access to the extensive track network of the Lower and Upper Engadine which includes the 15-kilometre-long, widly romantic forest track between S-chanf and Zernez. Winter walkers enjoy the peacefulness of the snow-covered Engadine countryside on groomed trails.
Skiers and snowboarders can access the big ski regions of the Lower and Upper Engadine in no time. The toboggan run of Mount Baselgia, an artificial ice rink and the natural ice rink complete the winter offerings in Zernez. Only the National Park shows winter guests the cold shoulder, since it is buried under a deep layer of snow.
- Unspoilt village of Zernez – picturesque village with beautiful Engadine houses located at the historically important transport hub of the Lower and Upper Engadine and Ofen Pass.
- Swiss National Park – biggest nature preserve in Switzerland with a unique wealth of Alpine animals and plants in untouched mountain countryside.
- National Park House Zernez – information centre with a permanent exhibition, explorable marmot burrow, vivarium with adders, terrain relief with touch screen, and a shop with an extensive range of information materials.
- Zernez family baths – with 25-meter pool for sportive swimmers, an outdoor swimming pool with undercurrent, massage beds and whirlpool at 34 °, as well as children's paddling pool with attractions.
- Village Tours – during the peek season, Monday is the day to get to know Zernez and its many unique attractions. Experienced guides point out the obvious and more hidden highlights of the Engadine village.
- Engadin Bad Scuol – offers a wide range of pools and saunas, Roman-Irish baths and a wellness and therapy centre in a light-filled building.
- Nature trail in the Ofen Pass area – a wealth of information about the surrounding nature with children's and adult information boards.
- Power plant Ova Esin – guided tour of the plant at the edge of the National Park region.
- Guarda – the most beautiful village of the Lower Engadine, high above the valley on a sun terrace, has maintained its original appearance which dates back to the 17th century.
Top Events
- Chalandamarz – festival of the Winter Eviction, during which the children go from house to house in traditional costumes, singing and asking for donations for the Chalandamarz-Ball (March 1).
- National Park open-air cinema in Zernez – a colourful mix of films in the snug castle courtyard of Planta-Wildenberg (July).

The mogul refers to the Oscar winner as "The Helen" and couldn't think of anyone better-suited to play the starring role in The Hundred-Foot Journey, which hits theaters Aug. 8 and features Mirren as the haughty head of an upscale French restaurant suddenly facing competition from an Indian eatery opening across the street.
"It was [fellow producer] Steven [Spielberg] ... who said, 'I think we should ask Helen.' I said, 'The Helen?' And then we all held our breath to see if you'd say yes," Winfrey told Mirren while interviewing her for the August issue of O Magazine. "When you did, we sighed and said, 'Now we have a movie!' "
Mirren, 68, has been pivotal to many movies in her nearly 50-year career, most notably in 2006, when she played Queen Elizabeth II in The Queen, which earned her an Academy Award.
Ruven Afanador
"I was terrified," Mirren says. "There are certain people who can deal with meeting the queen. But the vast majority of us get queenitis. You just – you cannot think of anything to say."
Mirren was notably less reserved in January, when she twerked while receiving the Hasty Pudding award at Harvard – despite later insisting she's not a sex symbol.
One person who might not agree? Husband Taylor Hackford. The happily married director and actress got together in their late 30s and waited 13 years to wed on New Year's Eve 1997.
"I used to say to Taylor, 'I wish we'd met earlier on. We've missed so much time together.' And he'd say, 'We'd never be together now if we met earlier,' " she says. "And I think he's actually right because we were both on a trajectory of work and ambition and, of course, to a certain extent, wanting to resolve ourselves as ourselves."
Now, Mirren admits, her priorities are different.
"Before I met Taylor, all my relationships took second place to my work. If I had to go to Africa, it was 'Bye-bye, I'm off to Africa.' And then he came into my life, and I started thinking, 'Maybe it's time to have a different attitude – and to say that my relationship is at least as important as my work.' To give it the time."

Moby Grape
Share This
One of the best '60s San Francisco bands,
Moby Grape
were also one of the most versatile. Although they are most often identified with the psychedelic scene, their specialty was combining all sorts of roots music -- folk, blues, country, and classic rock & roll -- with some Summer of Love vibes and multi-layered, triple-guitar arrangements. All of those elements only truly coalesced, however, for their 1967 debut LP. Although subsequent albums had more good moments than many listeners are aware of, a combination of personal problems and bad management effectively killed off the group by the end of the 1960s.
Many San Francisco bands of the era were assembled by recent immigrants to the area, but
Moby Grape
had even more tenuous roots in the region than most when they formed.
Matthew Katz
, who managed
the Jefferson Airplane
in their early days, helped put together
Moby Grape
Skip Spence
, a legendarily colorful Canadian native whose first instrument was the guitar, had played drums in
the Airplane
's first lineup at the instigation of
Marty Balin
the Airplane
after their first album, and reverted to his natural guitarist and songwriting role for
the Grape
the Airplane
had already recorded some of his compositions). Guitarist
Jerry Miller
and drummer
Don Stevenson
were recruited from the Northwest bar band
the Frantics
; guitarist
Peter Lewis
had played in Southern California surf bands like
the Cornells
; and bassist
Bob Mosley
had also played with outfits from Southern California.
The group's relative unfamiliarity with each other may have sown seeds for their future problems, but they jelled surprisingly quickly, with all five members contributing more or less equally to the songwriting on their self-titled debut (1967).
Moby Grape
remains their signature statement, though the folk-rock and country-rock worked better than the boogies; "Omaha," "Sittin' by the Window," "Changes," and "Lazy Me" are some of their best songs. Columbia Records, though, damaged the band's credibility with over-hype, releasing no less than five singles from the LP simultaneously. Worse, three members of the group were caught consorting with underage girls. Though charges were eventually dropped, the legal hassles, combined with an increasingly strained relationship with manager
, sapped the band's drive.
Moby Grape
's follow-up, the double-LP
, was one of the most disappointing records of the '60s, in light of the high expectations fostered by the debut. The studio half of the package had much more erratic songwriting than the first recording, and the group members didn't blend their instrumental and vocal skills nearly as well. The "bonus" disc was almost a total waste, consisting of bad jams.
departed while the album was being recorded in New York in 1968, as a result of a famous incident in which he entered the studio with a fire axe, apparently intending to use it on
. Committed to New York's Bellevue Hospital, he did re-emerge to record a wonderful acid folk solo album at the end of 1968, but that would be his only notable post-
project; he struggled with mental illness until he died in 1999.
Another unexpected blow was dealt when
, despite his membership in a band that emerged from the Haight-Ashbury psychedelic scene, joined the Marine Corps at the beginning of 1969. The band did struggle on and release a couple more albums during that year, and the best tracks from these (particularly the earlier one,
Moby Grape '69
) proved they could still deliver the goods, though usually in a more subdued, countrified fashion than their earliest material. The group broke up at the end of the '60s, although they would periodically reunite for nearly unheard albums over the next two decades, in lineups featuring varying original members. Their problems were exacerbated by
Matthew Katz
, who owns the
Moby Grape
name, and has sometimes prevented the original members from using the name when they worked together.

With more people on the road visiting relatives, Thanksgiving is busy time at Border Patrol highway checkpoints. These days more motorists are challenging the interior checkpoints and posting their videos on You Tube.
"Did I just cross the border? Was I outside the United States," asks a man who in text before the video indicates he was stopped at a checkpoint on 1-10 east leaving El Paso.
Border Patrol agents who ask for citizenship at highway checkpoints are now facing questions of their own.
"So you're allowed to stop any person for any reason and harass him," asks the motorist. The Border Patrol agent explains, "It's an immigration checkpoint, everybody is subject to inspection."
But motorists at checkpoints across the U.S. have refused to answer questions. Those who object often cite the 4th amendment's protection against being questioned without probable cause. Some hand agents small copies of the constitution.
Some of the encounters are comical. In one video a man wearing tights and a cape speaks German to the border patrol agent.
Others are tense and bordering on confrontational.
"Am I under arrest? What crime did I commit? Am I being detained?" asks a man in a car with four other passengers who posted his video.
"The answer to that is yes they are being detained until the agent can satisfactorily determine each person's citizenship." said George Gomez, Supervisory Agent for the Border Patrol's El Paso sector.
Border Patrol agents in the El Paso Sector now have laminated cards they hand out to motorists who question their authority at checkpoints.
The cards cite U.S. v Martinez-Fuerte, the Supreme Court decision that allows immigration checkpoints within 100 miles of the border without "individualized suspicion."
The El Paso sector also produced a training video to help agents handle people who question their authority.
Many border residents drive through checkpoints on a regular basis are familiar with the routine.
"They have a purpose they certainly do," said Jaime Garcia, Manager of Security Operations for Delphi, an automotive company. "It's all in the attitude, the way the questions are asked."
Garcia who has traveled the border for the past 20 years objects to the scope of the questioning when it goes beyond citizenship.
"I've answered the question and said I'm an American. Whether I'm going to Van Horn or Marfa or I'm driving all the way to Florida it's really none of their business," said Garcia.
A young woman who posted a You Tube video shot at an Arizona checkpoint also objects to further questioning repeatedly telling agents. It's none of your business.
"I'm United States citizen. Let me go."
She was detained while agents ran a "records check" on her vehicle. She repeatedly told the agents they did "not have permission to search my car" and refused to move her car into "secondary" for further inspection.
Agents ran a drug sniffing dog around her vehicle. After an agent asks a coworker "You got anything on the dog" and asked again about citizenship and let the woman and her passenger drive through the checkpoint.
When it comes to searches, "That is based either no probable cause if the canine alerts to the vehicle or we get verbal consent from the owner of the vehicle, the driver," explained Agent Gomez.
For some the desire to avoid delays outweighs the need to make a point.
In another YouTube video a man accompanied by his wife and little girl refuses to answer the citizenship question on his way from El Paso to Alamogordo.
An agent at the checkpoint tells him "If you really want to waste time, I've got eight hours." The man responds "so do I."
During the video he tells the "I don't roll through here with my birth certificate. I roll through here with a copy of the constitution."

Bowers sworn in as Erie's new police chief (Updated: 12:21 p.m.)(VIDEO)
Erie Mayor Joe Sinnott presented Randy Bowers with the gold badge worn by his father, Charles Bowers Sr., as Sinnott swore Randy Bowers in as the city's new police chief this morning.
Bowers, 59, replaces Steve Franklin, who retired Friday. He assumes a post formerly held by his father and his brother, Charles Bowers.
"I want the community to know I take this job very seriously. My pledge to the community is to do my best every day that I'm here," he said.
Sinnott also announced the appointment of D.J. Fuhrmann as deputy chief in charge of patrol, the position Randy Bowers formerly held. Fuhrmann, 49, has served the Erie Bureau of Police for 25 years, most recently as captain in the Patrol Division.

Landlines Are A Waste (Almost)
|Email Print
The Consumerist's Chris Walters commented about a Slate article in which they found that landlines were now considered a luxury expense. With rising costs in everything else, land-lines were becoming useless and cut from the monthly budget. In the Slate article, writer Daniel Gross pinged the under-30 crowd at the offices of Slate and Newsweek and discovered that very few had home phones at all. Those who did used Skype.
Since college, I've never had a land-line telephone. In fact, I still have the 412 Pittsburgh cell phone number I had when I was in college. Number portability enabled me to migrate that number across four carriers (six if you count the AT&T Wireless to Cingular to AT&T Wireless merger-acquisition-spin-off merry-go-round) in five years. Landlines are dinosaurs on a mammalian planet. I don't know how much a land-line costs nowadays but even the ubiquitous "triple play for $100" seems like you're overpaying for the telephone.
However, I can think of three situations where you'd want (or be forced to have) a land-line:
Children. While your cell phone does get 911 service, hitting 9-1-1 and then the green Send or green phone button is one button more than the traditional land-line. This is, of course, worst case scenario and not particularly strong justification for paying $20/month but it's certainly a consideration for some parents. This is also only a consideration for very young children, the age at which they shouldn't and wouldn't be left home alone anyway, so you're really talking about scenarios in which the parents are incapacitated. Either way, I know that some parents have justified having a land-line for this very reason.
Security systems. Most security systems need a telephone line if you want it to communicate with the central station. Some newer systems can take advantage of wireless networks but most still rely on the old land-line. A land-line is one of the hidden costs of getting a security system, if you're sold on or required to have central monitoring.
DSL. DSL is a digital subscriber line and it's internet service across the phone system. Unless your provider offers naked DSL or dryloop DSL, you'll be required to have phone service to get DSL.
Outside of those three cases, I don't see the point of a land-line. Anyone have a land-line anymore?

So I decided to install my AOE III in my computer again, and here is the problem. I have the 3 cd's (I have the complete collection), I go through the process of installing it, it asks me for the key code (for the first cd) I put it in and everything goes smooth with the install. After a few minutes, it asks me to insert disk 2, then after a few more, disc 3. When it is done it asks for disk 1 again to finish. It appears that everything is fine. The game then launches and plays smoothly, but the problem is that it is only the first one that plays. I cant get the warchiefs or asian dynastys to play at all. I have tried playing them off of using disc 2 or 3, but it starts to launch then quits and tells me to insert disc 1 again if i want to play. and disc one only plays the first part of the expansion.........am i doing something wrong here?
C:\Program Files\Microsoft Games\Age of Empires III\
C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Games\Age of Empires III\
In whichever one exists, find the age3y.exe file. You can create a shortcut to that, and it will launch TAD. In TAD you ought to be able to access the TWC civs, too.
Thranduil81:I think OP did find that, based on the post talking about the system asking for disk 2, then not recognizing it. I'm not sure what's happening, but I would install the patches for TAD/WC. The latest patch removes the need for a disk to play, so that will eliminate any problems related to the disks.
I agree with Jerom- seems like OP is trying to run TWC and TAD from nilla disks 2 and 3, I could obviously be wrong though.
@OP- follow this link- do you have all 5 of those disks?
If you have the complete collection retail package it has 5 CDs in it, not 3. There are 3 separate installation processes for the retail complete collection.
Quite frankly, it sounds as if the OP is not installing the expansions at all.

UNIVERSITY PARK - Wisconsin coach Bret Bielema wants Penn State to remain the final game of the regular season for his team.
The Big Ten additions of Maryland and Rutgers provide the Nittany Lions with close regional opponents to potentially close against, but Bielema hopes that won't be the case.
"Everybody else in the league has got some marquee matchups at the end. ... I'd love to protect that in any way, shape or form," Bielema said Tuesday.
At this point, the new Big Ten division alignment remains unclear. Many people expect Maryland and Rutgers to join Penn State in the Leaders Division, but Big Ten commissioner Jim Delany said Tuesday that division alignment has yet to be finalized.
Penn State coach Bill O'Brien said he believes "It's fantastic" that Maryland and Rutgers are joining the Big Ten. He then joked, "It's not the Big Ten anymore; it's the Big 14? Something like that?"
Some news and notes from PSU's press conference Tuesday:
n Bill Belton has been the forgotten running back the past few weeks, but O'Brien has not given up on him, saying, "We still see a very bright future for Billy."
n The coach wouldn't provide any details about Michael Mauti's knee injury and said it's too early to determine if PSU can seek a sixth year of eligibility for the linebacker. In question would be whether the four games Mauti played in 2011 before getting injured would fall under the NCAA's 30-percent rule, thereby making him eligible for a sixth year.
n Mauti visited practice Tuesday and was not on crutches. Teammates said he told them Monday not to focus on him, but instead on Saturday's game.
n Win or lose Saturday, quarterback Matt McGloin said, "It has been a successful season no matter what."

"What happened to Scott Brick?!!"
Scott Brick has been a long time favorite narrator of mine. I relistened to The Lion's Game before listening to The Lion. Scott is fabulous in the first but I didn't even recognize him in the second! He sounds like Howard Cosell!! Scott, please go back to your regular John Corey voice if there is another in the series!
"Totally predictable"
There was never a moment when I didn't know what was coming next. I love DeMille, but this one was not good.
"Totally satisfying"
I was almost late for work on release date (not OK as evil minions do NOT set their own hours!) because I was immersed in the Kindle version and waiting to download the audio book. Scott Brick and Nelson DeMille never disappoint. Amazing! These guys and Brian Haig are the reason I have an Audible membership.
"Predictable page turner"
I don't think that this book is worth the money. It held my attention but it uses the predictable formulas of the tracking of terrorist meanies. There are some graphic death scenarios that involve too much gore and only serve as fill. The book isn't awful but I wouldn't recommend anyone taking the time to read it in an environment where there are lots of great spy and detective novels. I love most of Demille's books but this one didn't do anything for me
"The Lion"
I have waited soooo long for this book and it did not disappoint me at all. I am thrilled that Scott Brick continues to be the narrator of these books. He is John Cory and anyone else reading the book for audio would detract from the book. I listened to the book in a little over 24 hours and will listen to it again soon. I highly recommend it as I have all the others in the series to many friends.
I have read or listen to all of the John Cory series except Plum Island which I can't find on audio. DeMille is a great writer and I would love for him to keep the series going. Also the character from The Generals Daughter would be great to revive.
I really enjoy the interview by Scott Brick of Nelson DeMille at the end of the tape.
Thanks Audible for getting this out to us and for Scott Brick who has become such a favorite of mine that I have a hard time listening to anyone else narrating a book on tape.
"A Poor Example of DeMille"
This book, while very violent, didn't have any of the 'fear factor' I noted in the Lion's Game, one of my favorite books ever. John Corey seems bullyish, and a foolish risk taker. Maybe it's better when reading; this narrator tried to imitate John Wayne and is very annoying. Toward the end I began to root for the bad guys just to get it over. Sorry but I really disliked this book.
Retired former magazine editor who is working harder than ever as Mr. Dad to his 13-year-old daughter.
"Another gem by DeMille"
I've liked all the books I've listened to by this author, but this might be the best one so far. Scott Brick did an excellent job of bringing out the slime that comprised the antagonist. I like my bad guys to be really bad, and Asad Khalil is about as slimy as they get. John Corey makes for a good character as does his wife. Boris was quite interesting too. But make no mistake about it, this book was titled The Lion for a reason. A riveting and satisfying ride.
"You better really like the narrator"
I have listened to a few of DeMille's books and like those this story is pretty good. It moves a little slowly and I found myself becoming very impatient at times.
What surprised me most was Scott Brick's narration. I usually like him and have gotten books simply because he's the narrator. However in this case he sounds almost bored and a little to melodramatic. So I suggest that you better be as much of a Scott Brick fan as a DeMille fan to really enjoy this.
"Disappointing sequel to The Lion's Game."
The only value is to satisfy your curiosity if you read The Lion's Game. Do not read this as a stand alone.
There were three action scenes in the beginning of the book with Asad killing people. Then the huge middle section of the book felt like filler. Too wordy with political ponderings. Too much internal thinking and monologuing. Too much repetitive thinking about past events. Finally we get some action toward the end.
This book would have been better if we could have seen how Asad got his information, how his sources got information, and how Asad and those sources communicated.
I did not understand why the authorities did not put Asad's picture in the newspapers and on TV. Asad is running around the country interacting with people.
One scene was kind of unbelievable. Two guys want to kill each other but they throw down their guns in order to fight hand to hand with knives.
Scott Brick did a good job as John Corey because Scott does cocky arrogance well. John Corey's arrogance was written in an entertaining way so it worked. But I've given Scott Brick 1 and 2 stars for his narration of other books where he was too arrogant, and it detracted from the book.
Genre: suspense thriller
Dept Q, Harry Hole... where are you?
"A Must Read For DeMille Fans"
I have read and or listened to every novel DeMille has written. With the exception of Wildfire, I recommend them all. This is a great story, highly entertaining.

Prince Harry, move over – for a surprisingly immodest Céline Dion!
The singer proves she is anything but camera-shy as she takes V into her Florida home for a risqué high-fashion photo shoot for the magazine's travel issue (on newsstands Aug. 30). Sporting blunt bangs, the mother of three poses topless and in barely-there outfits.
"I'm like this in my real life," Dion, 44, said of the surprising shoot. "I was scared a little bit because this is so different for me, but I'm glad I did it. Usually there's always a reason when I do a photo shoot, there's not the opportunity to go crazy."
With more than 200 million albums sold worldwide, five Grammys and countless hit records, Dion credits her illustrious career to maintaining the same persona on and off-stage.
"I've been an open book all my life and I think that's why people like me," she said. "For me to tell someone that my husband [René Angélil] had cancer, that we were struggling to have kids, or whatever we've gone through, talking about my life lets people know the real me."
Although she'll continue to perform in Las Vegas as part of a three-year residency, the Quebec-born singer's main priority is her family.
"I thought I had a life before, but until I was a mom, I had no idea. Why would I want a hit? Why would I want to win awards? There is nothing I can hope and wish for my career: I can just hope to be blessed as a mother for the rest of my life the way I am now. That's the only nomination I want."

on November 25, 2012 - 11:41 PM
With five weeks left in the regular season, the race for first place is virtually over in all but two of the National Football League's eight divisions.
Atlanta slipped by the Buccaneers, 24-23, in Tampa to open a four-game lead in the NFC South while New England, Baltimore, Houston and Denver in the AFC now own three-game leads over their closest rivals. San Francisco has a 2½-game advantage over Seattle in the NFC West by virtue of its 31-21 win at New Orleans while second-place Seattle was losing at Miami despite a 98-yard kickoff return by Leon Washington, the eighth of his career.
The races for wild-card playoff positions are wide open in each conference.
Indianapolis (7-4) is the front-runner in the AFC while Pittsburgh and Cincinnati are next at 6-5. Miami has the next best record at 5-6.
In the NFC, either Green Bay or Chicago, whichever does not win the NFC North, is the wild-card leader. Tampa Bay, Seattle and Minnesota, all 6-5, and Washington, Dallas and New Orleans, all 5-6, are still alive too.
Game of the day
Giants 38, Packers 10
The scoop: Refreshed after a bye week, New York ended Green Bay's winning streak at five games as Eli Manning passed for three touchdowns and Aaron Rodgers was sacked five times and intercepted once.
Why the Giants won: With no fear of a Green Bay running threat, they were able to tee off on Rodgers.
In the playoff hunt
49ers 31, Saints 21
The scoop: Ahmad Brooks and Donte Whitner returned interceptions for touchdowns, the 49ers sacked Drew Brees five times, and San Francisco ended New Orleans' three-game winning streak. Colin Kaepernick passed for 231 yards, including a short touchdown to Frank Gore. He also ran for a 7-yard score.
Why the 49ers won: Aside from one touchdown drive, they shut down the Saints' offense in the second half.
Broncos 17, Chiefs 9
The scoop: Peyton Manning threw for 285 yards and two touchdowns, and Denver rallied for its sixth straight win. Manning hit tight end Jacob Tamme late in the first half and wide receiver Demaryius Thomas in the third quarter, to overcome three field goals by the Chiefs' Ryan Succop. Kansas City lost its eighth straight. The Chiefs haven't scored a touchdown in more than 11 quarters.
Why the Broncos won: Kansas City had only 116 net passing yards, converted only 3 of 14 third downs and was 0 for 2 in the red zone.
Falcons 24, Buccaneers 23
The scoop: Matt Ryan threw for 353 yards and overcame two big turnovers by leading another late touchdown drive for Atlanta. Ryan teamed with Julio Jones on an 80-yard TD in the third quarter, but the NFC South leaders found themselves trailing 23-17 before Michael Turner's 1-yard TD run put Atlanta ahead for good with 7:55 left.
Why the Falcons won: They limited Tampa Bay's running game to 50 yards and a 2.4 average.
Bears 28, Vikings 10
The scoop: Jay Cutler threw for 188 yards and a touchdown as Chicago ended a two-game losing streak. The Bears led 25-3 at halftime with the defense holding Adrian Peterson in check, although he finished with 108 yards rushing.
Why the Bears won: Minnesota turned the ball over three times and averaged only 7.2 yards per pass reception.
Bengals 34, Raiders 10
The scoop: Andy Dalton threw three touchdown passes for Cincinnati. BenJarvus Green-Ellis ran for 129 yards and a touchdown, including runs of 48 and 39 yards – the longest of his career – to set up scores.
Why the Bengals won: They had a huge game on the ground (221 yards).
Dolphins 24, Seahawks 21
The scoop: Dan Carpenter kicked a 43-yard field goal on the final play as Miami scored 17 points in the last 8:08. Rookie Ryan Tannehill drove Miami 65 yards in the final 92 seconds to set up the winning kick. Washington returned a kickoff for a touchdown for the eighth time to tie the NFL career record and put Seattle ahead with eight minutes left.
Why the Dolphins won: Their defense forced Seattle into three-and-out on its first four possessions and eventually wore down the Seahawks.
Browns 20, Steelers 14
The scoop: Chris Rainey's fumble with 2:25 left – the seventh of Pittsburgh's eight turnovers – was recovered by Cleveland's Phil Taylor and the Browns handed their hated rivals. Charlie Batch, starting at quarterback for Pittsburgh because of injuries to Ben Roethlisberger and Byron Leftwich, was picked off three times and the Steelers lost five fumbles.
Why the Browns won: The Steelers went three-and-out five times and converted only 1 of 9 third downs.
Jaguars 24, Titans 19
The scoop: Chad Henne, making his first start in more than 13 months, threw two TD passes as the Jaguars snapped a seven-game losing streak.
Why the Jaguars won: They averaged 15.4 yards on 17 pass receptions.
Ravens 16, Chargers 13 OT
The scoop: Rookie Justin Tucker kicked his third field goal from 38 yards with 1:07 left in overtime to win it. Tucker also kicked a 38-yarder on the last play of regulation to cap Baltimore's comeback from a 13-3, fourth-quarter deficit. The Ravens converted a fourth-and-29 play to keep the drive alive for the tying field goal.
Why the Ravens won: They allowed just one field goal and forced four three-and-outs in the second half.
Dog of the day
Rams 31, Cardinals 17
The scoop: Janoris Jenkins became the first player in Rams history and the first NFL rookie since 1960 to return two interceptions for touchdowns in the same game and St. Louis dominated the second half to hand the Cardinals their seventh loss in a row.
Why the Rams won: They averaged 25.6 yards for their eight pass receptions.

It used to be that nuisance alligators weren't killed. They were removed to remote places such as Bulls Bay islands or Wambaw Swamp.
That changed as the coast populations grew of both alligators and humans, and more of the menacing-looking reptiles came snout-to-face with more people.
Alligator? Call help
Here are the numbers to call if you have a nuisance alligator:
- 953-9856 for Berkeley, Charleston and Dorchester counties.
-(843) 844-8957 for Beaufort, Colleton, Hampton and Jasper counties.
- 1-800-922-5431, after-hours emergency, Operation Game Thief.
The policy became to kill them. An alligator found on the Isle of Palms beach Sunday was killed according to that policy. Readers reacted sharply to it in comments and on social media after The Post and Courier published the story.
The reason for the policy shift was simple: With more than 100,000 alligators already out there — and a lot more people — finding an isolated spot to put a gator that's already caused trouble for humans has become a lot tougher.
It's illegal
-- To harass, feed or entice alligators.
-- Have, sell or transport alligator meat or parts.
-- Keep an alligator without a permit.
Source: S.C. Department of Natural Resources
Alligators battle for turf, and they don't stay put.
"For whatever reason, gators sometimes like to get up and walk somewhere," said wildlife biologist Jay Butfiloski with the S.C. Department of Natural Resources. Even if it means crossing interstate highways, or settling in someone's backyard to snatch the dog.
Alligators have an uncanny homing instinct. A 6-foot alligator was trapped in a pond near Beaufort a number of years ago, under the earlier policy. It was released on an island in Bulls Bay more than 30 miles and five river basins away. It was caught again in its home pond 14 years later — as a 10-footer.
"I understand the feelings (of people who oppose the killing policy)," Butfiloski said. "Sometimes it puts the department in a tight spot with what to do with these animals."
But there's no sure way to keep a relocated gator from heading off again. Putting one back where it came from is next to impossible: You rarely know exactly where that was, he said.
In 2012, DNR issued nearly 400 permits to remove and kill nuisance alligators. Hundreds more gators were killed in public and private land hunts — particularly the larger, more "menacing" reptiles.
Some say the policy might need to be refined.
"I'm not sure it won't be long before we're back to protecting them, because we're killing the hell out of them," said Ron Russell, of Gator Getter Consultants, an alligator management and nuisance removal company.
The Isle of Palms gator is a good example, he said. It was very likely swept toward the saltwater beach by currents and unlikely to return if put somewhere else.
Russell culls alligators by removing the younger middle sizes, leaving the larger, older reptiles, he said.
"That 9-footer could be 30 years old. We can't replace him, not in my lifetime. This is not a white-tailed deer. This is an animal that takes a long time to mature."
Dangerous predators
Alligators are ambush predators. Provoking an attack can be as simple as splashing. Their girth belies the quick snap of their strike.A golfer lost an arm while retrieving a ball on Fripp Island in 2009. A snorkeler lost an arm in Lake Moultrie in 2007.Last week, a 12-foot alligator snatched and ate an 80-pound husky as the dog was being walked by its owner in Jacksonville, N.C. The alligator was captured and killed.Think that's vicious? An 8-foot gator was found on Hilton Head Island this month with both its eyes shot out by bow-hunting arrows and one shaft still sticking out. It had to be put down.
Alligator do's and don'ts
-- Don't feed. Providing food for wild animals makes them bolder and encourages them to seek out people.-- Do keep your distance. Alligators are extremely strong and can move with a startling burst of speed on land over short distances. A safe distance from an adult alligator is about 60 feet.-- Don't disturb nests or small alligators. Some female alligators protect their young and may become aggressive if provoked.-- Do keep pets and children away from alligators. Large alligators do not recognize the difference between domestic pets and wild food sources.-- Don't swim in areas that are known alligator habitats. Splashing can attract alligators that think a prey animal is injured or attract a female animal that is protecting its young or eggs.
Wayward gators tend to find way to Isle of Palms beach
Stray gators aren't strangers on Isle of Palms. In fact, the beach here once hosted a crocodile.A beleaguered 4-foot long gator washed ashore in July 2012 in rough surf near the pier, staggered out of the wash and laid down beside some beach chairs and an umbrella. An 8-footer was captured in the surf in June 2011.Gators occasionally wash up on a lot of Lowcountry beaches. But Isle of Palms is just prone to it. Why? The waters flush them out. Alligators haunt the vast marshes behind the island, nearby Dewees and Capers islands and others. They will move island to island, and if they swim at the wrong time, they get caught in powerful rip currents at Dewees and Breach inlets. Swept to sea, they swim along the coast until the current lets swim in, Ron Russell of Gator Getter Consultants said.The real oddity for beachgoers here was a 6-foot crocodile snared near the pier in 2008. It had shown up earlier in a pond in Mount Pleasant. Native only to southern Florida, the croc likely was captured by someone then released. But crocs are powerful swimmers, and there's a small chance it could have worked its way up the coast.

Ten years after preservationists, landowners and government got together to preserve hundreds of thousands of acres of wetlands and forests in an area formed by the confluence of three rivers, local officials are still trying to figure out how to balance protection with drawing visitors to the ACE Basin.

I work at the Mount Pleasant Library, and you probably wouldn't guess that I would have much in common with Brad Pitt. But actually, it looks like I do.
Pitt recently mentioned in an interview that he often doesn't recognize people that he should, and that he now realizes he probably has a problem called face blindness. Based on his description of his difficulties, I think he's probably right.
The technical term for face blindness is prosopagnosia, and I first heard about it a number of years ago. I read a Dear Abby column, and the letter-writer described his inability to remember and recognize faces, which was so bad that he didn't even recognize his own mother when she showed up unexpectedly in the store where he worked. I was so excited to find out that there was someone else who had the same sorts of difficulties with recognizing faces as I did.
Although I've known that I had this condition for a long time, I really didn't tend to tell people about it much, until recently. My tendency over the years has been to muddle along, trying to recognize people the best I can by their size, shape, haircut, age, voice, beard, etc. Since the Mount Pleasant Library is relatively small, I don't have much trouble recognizing my co-workers, and can even recognize some of the "regulars" as well.
I did have a funny conversation with a new employee, Mike, recently. I explained my face blindness, but reassured him that I wouldn't have much trouble recognizing him, since he's the only guy working here with a beard. He looked a bit confused, and said, "Well, you mean me and Mark." "What? Mark has a beard?" You see, Mark is extra tall, so that's how I recognize him. The beard had not even registered.
Researchers believe that about two percent of the general population has face blindness, and the severity of the condition can vary. Many cases go undiagnosed, as there are many people who have never heard of the condition, and think they're "just really bad at recognizing people." Some cases are caused by a blow to the head or a stroke, but there are many people, like myself, who have been faceblind for as long as they can remember. In some cases, there's a genetic link, with several members of a family affected. In these cases, there appears to usually be a lesion on the part of the brain that recognizes faces, which means that people with face blindness must use another, less specialized part of the brain for the task – and that part just can't do the job as well.
There aren't a lot of books about face blindness, but our library does have two that I can recommend. Oliver Sacks is a neurologist who suffers from face blindness himself, and there's a chapter about the condition in his book "The Mind's Eye." I learned a lot from this one. For instance, I had long wondered if my inability to remember directions and geography might be connected to my face blindness, and Sacks confirmed that this is true of many, though not all prosopagnosics. Also, many of us don't tend to notice details in objects or animals well either: a car is a car, a bird is a bird – most of them look pretty much the same to me.
The other book I can recommend is called "You Don't Look Like Anyone I Know" by Heather Sellers. This one was such fun for me to read, as I identified so strongly with her struggles. Like the author, I had a boyfriend briefly in college that I had to "give up" because it was too embarrassing – his looks were so ordinary that I simply could not pick him out of a crowd.
If you think you might have face blindness, you can search for information on the internet, and even take some face recognition tests to see how well (or poorly) you score on them. There is a "60 Minutes" episode to watch, and there are at least two Facebook pages, where you'll find links to articles and videos and such. So far, scientists have not figured out a way to "fix" face blindness, but research is ongoing. I haven't met anyone yet (in person) who has told me that they also have face blindness, but I've enjoyed getting to "talk" with some online. If Brad Pitt is anything like me, he's probably relieved to have figured out that there's a reason for his struggles with recognizing people, and is glad that people are starting to hear about and understand this little-known condition.
