Buyers look to all kinds of celebrities to see what kind of cars they drive. But no Hollywood star has as many devoted followers as Pope Benedict XVI. He received the keys to his new Volvo XC90 SUV today and is seen here checking out the leather interior. Besides all the well-known Volvo safety features — stability control, copious airbags and rollover protection — this XC90 is also armored. We find it interesting that the German-born Pope actually went with a Swedish automaker, considering his predecessor made Volkswagen and Mercedes-Benz Pope-mobiles famous.

In the three years Ave Maria University has offered its pre-theologate program for men discerning a possible call to the priesthood, enrollment has zoomed from six students to 50-plus.
What's more, some 70% of Ave
Maria's pre-theologate grads have made the leap from
Thanks to these statistics, the
department confidently calls itself the fastest-growing undergraduate program
of priestly formation in the
And then there's this: In 2004, the university added a women's-discernment program. Already six young women have gone on from Ave Maria to join religious orders.
"The university is striving to be part of the renewal in the Church," says Father Robert Garrity, the school's chaplain, "and this is a sign of good things to come."
One of the contributing factors to the pre-theologate program's early success is the flexibility it provides, says Father Michael Beers, dean of the program. Young men who are thinking about the priesthood are given time to discern without committing to a formal college seminary: They can enter or leave the program at any time.
"If at any time in a college-seminary program a man discerns it's not for him, the only course is to leave the seminary altogether," explains Father Beers. "Typically, we might get 15 to 20 men in a year in our pre-theologate program. In a couple of days or a week, two or three might realize this is not the program for them. But they continue on as university students here." These young students lose neither time nor credits.
There's an added benefit to the Church. "We typically pick up thee or four new students who have come to the university," says Father Beers. "After seeing and praying the first week with this group, they ask to join us."
The open format is one of the
program's most appealing features. "Flexibility is the real key," says Father
Beers, who spent 20 years forming priests at the Pontifical College Josephinum in
Campus Crusaders
Men in the pre-theologate have the freedom of university students while sharing in the kind of community life that's distinctive of a seminary. They live on one dormitory floor, and gather for daily morning and evening prayer. The pre-theologate dean encourages the men to spend an hour a day praying before the Blessed Sacrament.
There's daily adoration at the university's chapel for all students, plus weekly exposition and adoration for the men in the pre-theologate chapel.
"The Eucharist is central to the program," says Father Beers, adding that it's one of the three pillars on which the whole pre-theologate program rests. The other two are devotion to Our Lady and fidelity to the Holy Father as the vicar of Christ. All the successful priestly formation programs he's seen rest on these three.
The women's discernment program is built on the same rocks. The young women live together on one dormitory floor, have a chapel where they pray the Liturgy of the Hours together, have a weekly Holy Mass and meeting together, and attend retreats and monthly outings.
"It's a dynamic program," says Father Garrity. "The young women who enter have peace and joy, and they're identifiable on campus. They're a great blessing for all of us."
The Servant Sisters of the Home of
the Mother (Hogar de la Madre) were asked to come from
Last year, 17 were in this program, which, like pre-theologate, gives the young women the leeway to leave or enter after the semester begins.
"In the past two years, we've had eight girls who left the program because they discerned a vocation to the religious life," says Servant Sister Grace. "Six have persevered and two left, but not from Ave Maria."
Women have gone on from here to join the Franciscans, cloistered Carmelites, the Religious Sisters of Mercy of Alma, Mich., and the Servant Sisters of the Home of the Mother.
In both programs, the men and women are also "regular" students encouraged to join in campus life.
"We promote and strongly encourage participation in every aspect of the university," says Father Beers. "That's part of the life of all our students, in and out of discernment."
Sister Grace agrees. "We encourage them to be very active on campus like any other students here," she says, citing the school's pro-life club and its sports activities.
Dispatching Disciples
Luke Suarez, a third-year pre-theologate student, serves as an officer in the student government and is active on the university's social committee.
When Suarez was having a hard time about direction in life during his first year at Ave Maria and thought perhaps he was running away from his vocation, he joined the pre-theologate program.
"Amazing opportunities opened up," Suarez says. "The program helped me to feel very confirmed and comfortable in pursuit of the priesthood." This summer, he began the formal process of applying as a seminarian for the Diocese of Bridgeport, Conn.
Similarly, the women's discernment program guided junior Stephanie Smith. She joined out of a deep desire to discover the vocation God designed especially for her, she says.
"During my three semesters of discernment, I focused on centering my life on Christ and giving him my whole heart," she explains. "After much praying, I discerned my vocation to be married. I knew that, no matter what my vocation would be, Jesus had to be my first love."
"We want the young girls to say their Yes to whatever vocation God has chosen for them," says Sister Grace. "We tell them, "take the Blessed Mother to be your model your teacher, and she will show you how to say your Yes."
The same happens with the many young men interested in formally preparing for the priesthood or discerning a vocation to it.
"Even if they discern the priesthood is not for them and they'd rather be married, that is a happy outcome as well," says Father Garrity. "The pre-theologate helps a young man to grow in his faith and be a good witness in the Catholic faith wherever the Holy Spirit leads him."
If he were to give a "state of the discernment programs" address right now, Father Garrity could begin and end it with his concluding quote to the Register: "God is alive and well at Ave Maria."

After 31 days, Greg Hill reaches his personal goal of climbing and skiing more than 300-thousand feet
Ogden, UT (April 2, 2014) — Salomon and Suunto are proud to announce professional backcountry skier and mountaineer Greg Hill has successfully completed his 100k March Madness Challenge – setting a record for the most vertical feet climbed and skied during one month.
To accomplish his challenge, Hill planned to climb and ski approximately 12-thousand vertical feet per day, for four days, followed by one rest day throughout the month. On average, he climbed for more than seven hours each outing.
The stage for Hill's feat was the backcountry near his home in Revelstoke, British Columbia, Canada where he summited 10 peaks over the course of March Madness.
"It was a great month of human-powered powder searching," said Hill. "I'm fortunate to work with the companies I do who equip me with gear that allows me to push my limits safely and effectively."
Part of Hill's March Madness Challenge included on-slope beta reviewing and feedback on new products that will be released to the public for the winter of 2015/16. During his challenge, Hill tested products from sponsors Salomon and Suunto.
In 2010, Hill gained world-wide recognition for his Greg Hill 2 Mil campaign, in which he logged two million vertical feet ski-mountaineering in one year. Hill's 24-hour record is 50-thousand vertical feet.
Watch Hill explain the challenge prior to his start here: VIDEO

$4 buys a round of Tortino Di Zenzero, a homey ginger spice cake, big enough for two at Grandaisy Bakery. The sugar-dusted cake is not so much spicy as robust and hearty, made with whole grain rye flour and offering a light crunch at the surface. Break in and you can actually see strands of fresh grated ginger, a terrific sight. Smell and you'll pick out sweet molasses, cinnamon, and lingering black pepper. The scent, especially when warmed in the oven, is borderline intoxicating. Very holiday appropriate.

This installation consists two wall-mounted plates containing DNA samples and corresponding digital sequences from the artist and her partner. The DNA, while invisible, is represented in the laser etched plates using contemporary scientific iconography. The DNA sequences are visualized by using two video monitors (with audio) depicting lips speaking the DNA mapped to generative english language. The disembodied lips take turns speaking to one another, at times interrupting at other times remaining silent. The DNA sequence is derived from a collaboration between Lwin and scientists at NYU Medical Center, Study of Human Genomics, and the American Museum of Natural History, Center for Comparative Genomics. polymorphic [d(eoxyribo)n(ucleic) a(cid)]: a love story looks at the contemporary methodology for encoding DNA, and it's application and ethical ambiguities in genetic testing for the purpose of reproduction and it's impact on human evolution.

Man Suspected of Stabbing Wife to Death, Trying to Set Himself on Fire in Northern Israel
The 36-year-old man resident of Beit Shean allegedly murdered his wife in their home, and then tried to set himself on fire; two of the couple's three children were reportedly home at the time.
A resident of Beit Shean, northern Israel, allegedly stabbed his wife to death overnight Monday, and subsequently tried to set himself on fire, but was stopped by police.
The incident took place at around midnight in the family apartment, in a neighborhood in the northern part of the city. The man, aged 36, allegedly stabbed his wife, also 36, in the upper body and then fled the apartment. As he fled, the man was drinking an inflammable liquid.
A Magen David Adom medical team arrived at the scene, and despite resuscitation attempts, the woman's death was confirmed at the apartment.
Officers from the police station at Beit Shean found the suspect at a cemetery next to the neighborhood, near route 90. When police saw him, the man poured the flammable liquid over his body and tried to set himself on fire. The police managed to put out the fire. The suspect was transferred to Haemek Hospital, Afula. He is said to be moderately wounded.
Two of the couple's three children, aged 9, 12 and 14, were in the apartment at the time of the incident, according to police. The third child is in a boarding school, and was not present at the time.
Six years ago, the woman complained to police that her husband had been violent. Beit Shean police investigated that incident, and an indictment was served against the husband. After further evaluation, the prosecution decided to drop the case. Since then, the woman made no further complaints to police.
In a similar incident three years ago, another Beit Shean resident, 44-year-old Yitzhak Bochboot, stabbed to death his wife Revital Bochboot, 35, in front of two of their seven children.

GREENWOOD (WAOW) -- Almost all of us consume butter in some form, and most of us get it from the same place.
Grassland Dairy Products, Inc. is tucked away in tiny Greenwood, Wisconsin. This family business produces 1/3 of all the butter in the United States. That butter is made in bulk for bakeries, put in restaurant-type packaging, or packaging to be sold in stores.
"We package a total of about 100 different brands," says Grassland Vice President Trevor Wuethrich. "About 90 of those brands are retail brands, and you'll see all throughout the U.S. different brands of butter, and most likely most of them come from here."
In order to make all that butter, they need a lot of milk.
Wuethrich says, "We have a 12-bay intake and in those 12 bays, we can unload 12 trucks of milk at a time, each truck containing about 50,000 pounds of milk. They are tested for milk components and quality, unloaded if they pass our tests, and then cleaned inside and out and sent out for more loads."
That milk is stored in these 50,000 gallon silos and kept at 44 degrees Fahrenheit until it's used. Once that milk is churned into butter and placed in its proper packaging, it is sent to the warehouse, where trucks are ready to take it all over the country. About 280,000 pounds of butter go through here each day. That's 70 truckloads.
And if you think this facility is underachieving, Wuethrich says they are putting on an addition, which will allow Grassland to double its current milk capacity. With the success they've had already, who knows what they can do with higher production.

FEM1 proteins are ancient regulators of Stem-Loop Binding Protein (show SLBP Proteins).
These findings have implications for understanding the cellular functions of Fem1b, and the regulation of Gli1 (show GLI1 Proteins) oncoprotein activity.
the proapoptotic protein Fem1b is downregulated by the proteasome in malignant colon cancer cells and mediates proteasome inhibitor-induced apoptosis of these cells
This study presents evidence suggesting a role for FEM1A (show FEM1A Proteins) and FEM1B in the pathogenesis of polycystic ovary syndrome. Only FEM1B variants were associated with insulin (show INS Proteins)-related traits in PCOS women.
FEM1B is required for Rad9 (show RAD9A Proteins) recruitment and CHK1 (show CHEK1 Proteins) activation in response to replication stress.
Fem1b is a binding partner of Ankrd37, and their interaction resulted in Ankrd37 degradation through the ubiquitin-mediated proteolysis pathway.

BUENOS AIRES — The Olympic torch made the only Latin American stop of its beleaguered world tour here Friday without hitting the kind of chaotic, pro-Tibet protests that had followed it across two continents.
While protest leaders had promised "entertaining surprises" along the 8-mile torch route, the heavily guarded event encountered few disturbances, other than three water balloons lobbed at the torch as it passed the city's central cathedral.
Instead, several hundred red-jacketed China supporters waving the Olympic host country's red flag welcomed the torch along with thousands of cheering Argentines.
Eighty Argentine athletes and celebrities carried the torch through the city's downtown and port area. Some 6,000 security personnel were on hand to prevent the sort of protest that paralyzed the torch run in London and Paris and caused a major detour in San Francisco. Protesters have condemned what they call Chinese persecution of Tibetans and a rise in human rights violations in the runup to the games, which start Aug. 8.
The torch's next stop is Tanzania.
Also Friday, the president of the International Olympic Committee, Jacques Rogge, said the IOC will not intervene to pressure China on Tibet or other political issues. "This is the line we do not have to cross," he said in Beijing.
President Bush said Friday his decision to attend the Olympics will not be affected by pleas from human rights activists who want world leaders to skip the opening ceremony to protest Beijing's crackdown in Tibet. The White House has not yet said whether he will attend.

Upgrading PluralEyes 2 to version 3. Worth it?
When shooting with a DSLR camera, and recording dual-system sound, Red Giant's PluralEyes has been a godsend. Period. We couldn't even consider working without this awesome plugin. Version 3 has been out for a while. Will upgrading to PluralEyes 3 make us more efficient? Or should we just stick with our trusted friend a bit longer? Let's go over the differences between the two versions and decide.
PluralEyes upgrade features:
- Faster Audio/Video Sync – Version 3 is up to 20x faster than Plural Eyes 2.
- New User Interface and Timeline – Watch the sync occur in real time and identify problems right away.
- Quality control – New Two-Up View and Snap to Sync, along with a visual timeline for testing and adjusting your audio.
- New PluralEyes stand-alone app – Red Giant's integration of a standalone PluralEyes application takes audio/video syncing out of the non-linear editing software.
- All Hosts and OS's for One Price – Previously, you purchased PluralEyes by host app. When you purchase PluralEyes 3, you get it for ALL host applications supported by PE3 – not just one.
How much?
Red Giant is on our "white" list of companies providing decent customer service, good technical support, and very good educational content for their products. Their prices, and upgrade/update policies are also fair:
• If you never owned PluralEyes or DualEyes you pay $199.
• If you are a student, faculty, non-profit organization or religious institution you can get most applications 50% off. The Academic version of PluralEyes goes for $99.
• If you own any version of PluralEyes 2 or DualEyes, upgrading will cost you $79. Keep in mind that you will need your original Singular Software license key to upgrade.
• If you already own PluralEyes 3.0 or 3.1 you get version 3.2 as a free update.
Is the PluralEyes upgrade to version 3 worth $79? For us, no.
PluralEyes version 2 works really well with our Adobe Premiere Pro CS6 workflow, and is quite fast already. However, upgrading really depends on your specific situation, and the workflow you are comfortable with. If you are using Final Cut X or Premiere Pro CC, both have built-in audio sync features, but we have heard many complains about reliability. If you are still syncing audio manually, most of the time the software can do it faster and more efficiently. The standalone app supports a broad range of filmmaking workflows. The PluralEyes plugin allows compatibility with non-linear editing tools such as Sony Vegas 10-12, Avid Media Composer 5.5-6.5, and Adobe Premiere Pro CS5-CS6. For the full list of cameras, file formats and codecs supported, check out more info HERE.
Below is a tutorial on the PluralEyes workflow. It shows the stand alone application for MAC, but it is very similar to the Windows workflow. Got more questions? Here's the FAQ. Nervous about making the leap to video? Book a private consulting session today.

Few outside of the Buss family understand what Jerry Buss meant to the Lakers, the city of Los Angeles and the surrounding areas. There is one outsider, however, who could appreciate the genius of the late Lakers owner who died Monday – General Manager Mitch Kupchak.
Buss signed Kuchak as a free agent in 1981 and he played a key role in the Lakers' 1985 NBA championship against Boston. Kupchak retired after the 1985-86 season and Buss moved him into the front office, where he served as an apprentice to then-GM Jerry West.
"Here it is 32 years later," Kupchak told a crowded room of media Tuesday.
"Yesterday was an empty day and I couldn't seem to find a place where I was comfortable – a room, a place, a car, a house. It is a major loss for obvious reasons. Here was a man that brought me to Los Angeles as a player, who for some reason then kept me on for an additional 27 years, which is unheard of in this business."
Kupchak re-iterated that Buss' family – Jim, Jeanie, Johnny, Janie, Joey and Jesse – will continue to carry on their father's legacy in running the Lakers. Kupchak, too, will continue in his role.
"I think I have a feel for what Jerry wants, too," he said.
Kobe Bryant also was privileged to know Buss on a personal level. Buss signed Bryant as a 17-year-old out of high school and the 15-time All-Star has spent 17 seasons in a Lakers uniform.
"He obviously had a profound impact on my career, to say the least," Bryant said.
He was close to signing with the Clippers in 2004. Bryant said Buss also was instrumental in his decision to remain with the Lakers in 2007 when he had become disillusioned with the direction of the franchise and wanted to be traded.
"I had to make a choice, I had to make a decision on (whether to) believe in him, which wasn't very hard to do once I took a step back and looked at everything he had accomplished," Bryant said. "He talked to me about what his vision was and his vision for rebuilding the team and rebuilding it quickly.
"So it was a pretty easy call for me."

PHOENIX - A Phoenix woman faces three charges of child abuse after police say she smacked her 10-month old baby and blew pot smoke in her mouth to stop her from crying.
Court documents released Tuesday say that 21-year-old Jessica Tara Callaway was arrested Saturday on the charges. She doesn't yet have an attorney.
Police wrote in court documents that officers watched a cell phone video that showed Callaway picking up her daughter by the left leg and smacking her on the leg.
A few minutes later, police say Callaway smacked the baby in the face.
Callaway's friend, identified as Alexandrea Kingsley, told officers that the two were then smoking pot when Callaway blew smoke into the girl's mouth at least twice.

Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy
National Organization for Rare Disorders, Inc.
It is possible that the main title of the report Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy is not the name you expected.
General Discussion
Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) is a rare muscle disorder but it is one of the most frequent genetic conditions affecting approximately 1 in 3,500 male births worldwide. It is usually recognized between three and six years of age. DMD is characterized by weakness and wasting (atrophy) of the muscles of the pelvic area followed by the involvement of the shoulder muscles. As the disease progresses, muscle weakness and atrophy spread to affect the trunk and forearms and gradually progress to involve additional muscles of the body. The disease is progressive and most affected individuals require a wheelchair by the teenage years. Serious life-threatening complications may ultimately develop including disease of the heart muscle (cardiomyopathy) and breathing (respiratory) difficulties.
DMD is caused by changes (mutations) of the DMD gene on the X chromosome. The gene regulates the production of a protein called dystrophin that is found in association with the inner side of the membrane of skeletal and cardiac muscle cells. Dystrophin is thought to play an important role in maintaining the structure of these muscle cells.
DMD is classified as a dystrophinopathy. The dystrophinopathies are a spectrum of muscle diseases, each caused by alterations in the dystrophin gene. The severe end of the spectrum is known as Duchenne muscular dystrophy and the less severe as Becker muscular dystrophy.
The dystrophinopathies belong to a large group of diseases known as the muscular dystrophies. These disorders are characterized by specific changes (e.g. variation of muscle fiber size, muscle fiber necrosis and inflammation) in muscle biopsy. The clinical hallmarks include the weakness and wasting of various voluntary muscles of the body. Approximately 30 different conditions make up the muscular dystrophies. The diseases affect different muscles and have different ages of onset, severity and inheritance patterns.

While it is true that property is sold cheaply and can be flipped, the practice is sophisticated and fraught with possible dangers. For example, when you buy the property, you often are given little, if any, time for an inspection. Many hidden problems may not come to light until after the property has been purchased. A faulty heating or cooling system could cost many thousands of dollars to fix. The property often is sold at auction, and unless you have complete control of your faculties, you can be induced to pay more than the property is worth.
If you wish to go into this enterprise, do your homework and go to some auctions. Find out how they are conducted. You must set a limit on how much you will spend and, when that number is reached, you must drop out of the bidding. It's important that you invest

Clery Act Victims' Bill of Rights
The "Campus Sexual misconduct Victims' Bill of Rights" exists as a part of the campus security reporting requirements, commonly known as the Jeanne Clery Act, of the federal law that establishes all student aid programs, the Higher Education Act of 1965.
The United States Congress enacted the "Campus Sexual misconduct Victims' Bill of Rights" in 1992 as a part of the Higher Education Amendments of 1992 (Public Law: 102-325, section 486(c)). It was signed into law by President George Bush in July of 1992.
This law requires that all colleges and universities (both public and private) participating in federal student aid programs afford sexual misconduct victims certain basic rights:
- Accuser and accused must have the same opportunity to have others present during disciplinary proceedings.
- Both parties shall be informed of the outcome of any disciplinary proceeding.
- Survivors shall be informed of their options to notify law enforcement.
- Survivors shall be notified of counseling services.
- Survivors shall be notified of options for changing academic and living situations.

30-06 vs. .308 vs. 270 win.

Regarding the 30 caliber rounds, both the .308 and .30-06 can shoot bullets up to 250 grains (heaviest made as far as I know); it's been done before. Both those really heavy bullets have been used in competition at 1000 yards from both cartridges with stellar performance accuracy wise. And a 250-gr. hunting bullet would do well on very big game from either case.
Accuracy wise, the .308's king of the hill. For hunting game up to big deer, the .270's a good king of that hill. For larger game up to moose and elk, the .30-06 is the best of the three.
That aside, the older, weaker .30-30 WCF and .30-40 Krag's been used on everything from Kodiak bear down to mice; kill's 'em all dead with the first, well placed, shot.
Note that game's killed with bullets, not cartridges; nor rifles, either, for that matter. Pick the bullet caliber, weight and type you want to use, then pick the case you want to shoot it out of. How fast that bullet leaves determines the maximum range you should use it on game. There's no way one can tell what cartridge nor rifle fired a given bullet entering the vitals of a game animal at 1947 fps doing all the right stuff to put it down instantly from just an autopsy of the animal.
I suppose a 50 caliber BMG round could be held in ones hand and stabbed into the brain of a deer, but that's a rather risky way to kill a deer with a cartridge. It would be feasable to stand back a couple of feet and hold your rifle by its barrel then swing it such to smack the deer up side its head with the buttstock; a good way to kill one with a rifle.

Consider these numbers: $350 million in net operating savings over the project lifetimes. 400,000 metric tons of annual greenhouse gas emissions. More than 650 million kilowatt hours of electricity per year. These are the astonishing savings unearthed by 51 EDF Climate Corps fellows working at Fortune 1000 companies this summer.
As impressive as these numbers are, the stories from individual fellows are even more compelling. They illustrate time and again how a smart and resourceful person – armed with analytical skills, specialized training, and a single-minded focus – can rake in huge reductions in costs and emissions. Here are just three stories from this year's champions of energy efficiency:
- Nick Fassler evaluated hospital energy efficiency projects for HCA Inc in Nashville, Tennessee. Fassler found ways to reduce energy use from lighting by up to 30%, which if rolled out across HCA's hospitals could save the company $7.8 million in annual electricity costs and cut 52,000 metric tons of CO2 emissions per year.
- Ryan Mallett spent his summer dialing up energy savings at Verizon. During one of the hottest summers on record, Mallett evaluated the installation of a thermal ice storage system at Verizon's headquarters in lower Manhattan. The investments Mallet recommended could save the company a total of $9.16 million over the project lifetimes, while avoiding over 8,700 metric tons of CO2 emissions annually.
- At eBay's San Jose headquarters this summer, Megan Rast evaluated opportunities to save energy by installing power management software, lighting retrofits, and replacing older computers. The projects she recommended could save more than $1.5 million over their lifetimes, and avoid over 4,800 metric tons of CO2 emissions annually.
If MBA students can come up with results like these in a 10-week summer fellowship, imagine what could happen if businesses all across the country got serious about energy efficiency. It would be enough to bend the curve on energy consumption from commercial buildings –the source of 18% of U.S. greenhouse gas pollution – while boosting the bottom line.
That's the power and potential of energy efficiency. Maybe all you need is a champion to help you harvest it. Who will be your champion?

PLANT CITY, Fla. – The Portland Timbers Reserves scored three goals in the second half to overcome a three-goal halftime deficit and earn a 4-4 draw on the road against VSI Tampa Bay FC of USL PRO at Plant City Stadium on Saturday evening.
Saturday's match was one of several interleague games between MLS Reserve League and USL PRO teams this season as part of a development partnership established between MLS and United Soccer Leagues earlier this year.
Adverse weather conditions and lightning delayed the start of match for approximately 50 minutes, but that did not prevent VSI Tampa Bay from finding the back of the net three times, including two goals from forward Andriy Budnyy, in the opening 18 minutes of the match. Midfielder Douglas Dos Santos scored again right before halftime as VSI Tampa Bay FC took a 4-1 lead heading into the break.
Under a steady rain and wet field conditions, the Timbers Reserves fought their way back into the match in the second half. Forward Sebastián Rincón and Jose Valencia both tallied in the opening 11 minutes of the half to trim the deficit, 4-3. Forward Sal Zizzo provided the equalizer for a second straight match, converting a penalty kick in the 68th minute to pull the Timbers Reserves level at 4-4 and extend the team's current unbeaten run to four games.
The Timbers Reserves (3-1-2, 11pts) move into a tie for first place in the MLS Reserve League's West Division with the Real Salt Lake Reserves. VSI Tampa Bay FC (5-3-1, 16pts) remains in sixth place in USL PRO.
Midfielder Michael Nanchoff scored his team-leading fourth goal of the season in the first half, Valencia tallied his third goal, Zizzo scored in a second straight match and goalkeeper Jake Gleeson made several saves for the Timbers Reserves.
Budnyy recorded his first two-goal performance this season, while forward Shawn Chin and Dos Santo scored their second goals of the season for VSI Tampa Bay FC, who is unbeaten in its last three home matches.
Budnyy opened the scoring in the opening minutes of the match, but the Timbers Reserves answered right back in the fifth minute to knot the score at 1-1 on a goal by Nanchoff – his second goal against VSI Tampa Bay FC this season.
VSI Tampa Bay FC then scored three straight goals to walk into halftime with a 4-1 lead. Budnyy scored his team-leading fourth goal of the season in the 15th minute, hitting a shot from the top of the box off the left post. Chin scored three minutes later and Dos Santos capitalized on a deflected shot and slotted home from short range at the left post in the 45th minute.
The Timbers Reserves rallied for three goals in the second half to produce their highest scoring output of the season. Rincón scored his first goal of the season just two minutes into the half. Valencia, who scored the game-winning goal in a 2-1 victory over VSI Tampa Bay FC on April 7 at JELD-WEN Field, tallied in the 56th minute to trim the home side's lead 4-3.
Valencia was fouled in the box near the left post and the referee awarded the Timbers Reserves a penalty kick in the 68th minute. After having his initial attempt from the spot called back due to a Portland violation, Zizzo stepped up and delivered a second time, placing the ball inside the left post, for his second goal in two games, helping the Timbers Reserves earn a share of the points on the road.
The Timbers Reserves play host to the LA Galaxy Reserves in their next match Sunday, July 14, at JELD-WEN Field at 6 p.m. (Pacific). Tickets are available for purchase at the JELD-WEN Field box office or online at www.portlandtimbers.com.

Urban Decay 24/7 Glide-On Lip Pencil Reviews
Glide on lip pencilThis is the best lip liner I have ever used. It goes on smoothly, is exact and lasts! — 6 years, 1 month agoCaroleVonAllten | 1401 reviews

Urban Decay 24/7 Glide-On Lip PencilI don't generally like to fuss with lipliner - trying to get the right color to go with your lips or the color seems too much of a hassle. However - for bright lipsticks and dark lipsticks it is useful to have a lipliner to keep the product on the lips and not bleed and feather out. Urban Decay 24/7 eyeliners are a favorite of mine, thought it would be a safe bet to try their lip liners. Ozone is ...read morea great clear lip liner - I can line and fill my lips with it as a base before applying a bright red or coral or deep plum lipstick to keep it where I've applied it. Helps lipstick last longer and avoid feathering into the fine lines and creases around the mouth. It's fantastic as a base for lipstick/lipgloss! It does make my lipstick more long wearing even after I eat. I also line my lips with it to prevent feathering (it works!). I love the fact that it's clear so it goes with any lipstick/lipgloss, I don't have to buy any other lipliners. But, I find that it's a bit drying AND it runs out very quick. I don't think I would repurchase because I'm going to try out MAC Prep+Prime Lip Primer next; it's cheaper! I love this liner because it is truly clear, without a whitish or waxy look to it. I can use it underneath all my lippies to keep them from bleeding and to give them lasting power. I've even just used it under gloss to make it stick better. Definite thumbs up for this product, I will repurchase whenever I run out. It did work, however, after wearing it for a day I took off my makeup that night and noticed my lips were burning and felt like they were covered in wax or glue and this continued for a week and a half after using it only once. I have sensitive skin although I've never had an adverse reaction to any lip product so be sure to do a skin test if you have sensitive skin. I bought this on a complete whim. It was my first time at Sephora and I convinced myself that I needed this lipliner. So I bought this and the Urban Decay Grindhouse sharpener. To be honest I felt that this was a waste of money for me, it didn't seem to make my lipstick or tinted lip balms stay on any longer. The colour that goes on when I have this lipliner on and when I don't is different. When using this lipliner before lipstick it makes the colour more true to what is in the tube (I have fairly pigmented lips). It goes on smoothly and doesn't dry out my lips. To be honest, I won't repurchase because I don't think it's an essential item. I love the Urban Decay Grindhouse sharpener though and would definitely repurchase and recommend that. Urban Decay's new 24/7 Glide-On Lip Pencil in Ozone is basically a CLEAR lip liner. I have tried other so-called clear lip pencils that professed to stop feathering and bleeding of lip products and I have never been satisfied with them -- until now!! This thing is fabulous! The real test for me was lining my lips with Ozone and then using a MAC Lipglass, without any other (colored) liner. I had not even a hint of my lipglass going outside the boundary I created with the Ozone pencil! The only downside I see to this product (and I still couldn't bring myself to deduct a lippie because of it) is the fact that I can see myself running through this pencil pretty quickly. I have no issues sharpening the pencil, nor do I with the 24/7 eye pencils. I do think that the formula, which creates a very soft pencil, also facilitates it wearing down more quickly. Still, I am truly pleased and amazed with this winner! — 5 years, 5 months agomihshelle | 182 reviews

Urban Decay 24/7 Glide-On Lip PencilI have always had great luck with Urban Decay cosmetics, and this lip pencil didn't disappointment me either. I bought in Gash, and I love it. It doesn't bleed or feather, it glides on and it wears extremely well. The packaging is great and it is worth every dime. — 7 years, 10 months agolesa5363 | 352 reviews

OxygenI love this lip pencil in Oxygen; it's clear so it goes with everything! It's also smooth, long-lasting, and keeps my lipstick from feathering or bleeding. It seems expensive, but I've gone through several of Sally Hansen's clear lip liners (which are non-sharpening) to every one of these. — 7 years, 5 months agoteshie | 396 reviews

stays on!These lipliners are awesome. They stay on well and thery are good colors to choose from. Its so hard to find a light colored lipliner (I wear a lot of nudes) that stays on. Im very impressed. — 6 years, 2 months agomamalicious | 224 reviews
Favorite pencilI have this in about 7 colors. I usually prefer gel liner, but this is absolutely my favorite pencil liner. They're very creamy and glide on easily without tugging. They last all day.

I'll buy it againI have reviewed other specific colors but I wanted to touch on 2 specific colors without their own category. I love these in general, they are very smooth and last longer than most liners. I have owned wicked,heavy,naked and wallflower Wicked was too pink for me to pull off and it got swapped.

Heavy is called a nu...read morede on the website but I found it to be more brown on my fair skin. a bit dark for every day. Naked is a beautiful color and from what I can see the color (besides ozone) that is most likely to be pulled off by the most people. On me it appears very rosy. For those who love a lighter nude lip I would go with wallflower. It works well for me for everyday. This is one of their new colors and I had to have it. It is my favorite. I wish that the caps would stay on the back of the pencil though, it would make it much easier to do my makeup on the go. I instantly fell in love with the formula -- smooth, non-drying, and stains the lips to perfection. The color, however, wasn't super flattering on my bare lips. Rather than a 'rosy neutral', I would describe Illegal as a 'peachy nude'. I can't really detect any rosy tones! My lips have a pinkish tone to them and I generally avoid anything too brown/warm/peachy-toned, unless there's a fair amount of pink to off-set it, which there wasn't with Illegal. So I headed to Sephora for an exchange and swatched Illegal next to Wallflower and Midnight Cowboy. All three shades have a similar tone, with Illegal being more peachy (peachy-nude), Midnight Cowboy being more brown (brownish-nude), and Wallflower being more pink (pinkish-nude). I've been looking forever for that elusive "nude" lip liner that would blend in to my lip color beautifully and harmonize with most of my lip colors and Wallflower is it! It looks great against my MAC NC20 skintone, even with just a bit of balm and it doesn't wash me out. Highly recommend! — 4 years, 2 months agomelissuhh | 52 reviews

The BEST EyelinerI am obsessed with Urban Decay Eyeliners. I own close to 10 different colors. They glide on so easily but stay put all day. A lot of their colors have subtle shimmer/glitter in them, which I think is just a fun addition to your standard eyeliner. i can't say enough how much I like them and they last a long time, at least a year when I am alternating 2-3 different pencils. Right now, I'm alternating between their brown, black and purple colors on different days. I love them all! — 3 years, 8 months agoposhinprogress | 181 reviews

I have a Vietnamese friend who has possesion of this horn he brought to the States in the 1970's. I was given to him by his Father, and is thought to be about 60 years old. He says it's a Rhino horn, although I am not sure. It is about 10" tall, is somewhat hollowed out inside. It has a wavy exterior. Most of the ones I have seen online seem to be smoother. My question is, is this a rhino horn? Any experts out there?

Hopefully they're keeping the same voice actress. She happens to also be the voice of Amumu and Nunu, so it's not far fetched to think they could have recorded new lines for them all in a single session.

I thought that'd been around a while....i tried it several games last season even. I guess it's better with new Black Cleaver, but i'm not a huge fan. He just feels stronger in constant lane presense to me. He's such a lane bully after level 6.
It's gonna take a LOT to knock me off of Sejuani or Jarvan when i jungle in current S3 game status.
I REALLY need to sit down and finish this video of sejuani ganks. I already put yer gank in that generated the fat **** pig bitch rage:) lol.

That is merely one of a large handful of options (including dodging) that would have been better than what we actually ended up playing.
Now that you actually have me thinking about it critically, her high base damages and mobility actually stand a chance of out maneuvering blitz while harassing Cait out of lane. (A little bit better than Elise?) On top of that, it wouldn't have forced everyone else into roles they weren't planning on.
Regardless, I don't plan on going out of my way to try it out.
The pick was a minor issue. We played like dung across the board. We lost. The end. On to the next game.

Incorrect. It is awesome. Just ask my victims.
I'm really tempting fate by calling attention to this, but we have a 100% win rate when you jungle Darius and I mid. Those Darius ganks are extremely strong, because he cranks out so much damage with his base stats/abilities, and it's not too hard to get a pull off as long as you come in from behind (giggity). He fits very well with the Dyni style of constant ganking.
When both jungle and mid snowball, you wind up with fantastic map pressure, and it's all downhill from there.
Another great mid match for Darius is Malzahar. Usually if I can ult or flash ult someone, in teamfights or in lane, that someone is Darius food. I've had a lot of games go very well in that vein.
Naut jungle with an annie mid is also mean. So much CC. I think I caught Vi just outside of tower range and between my plant/slow and the annie stun it was gg.
We had a great game, though I think we lost in the end cause they had much better end game champs and we spent too much time messing around. Nunu could put more pressure with his ult and be useless other then that, but open up an opportunity for Vi/Jax to dive our carries. Can't erase two warmogs off the map with only two real damage dealers and a fed kog + blood boil means neither I or singed could do much even if we did manage to peel at and get keep our carries up we were getting destroyed in the process.
And our janna pub never let us really get into a great engage by getting caught multiple times, and we stumbled after the teamfights we won.
Had some good games with dyni mid as swain as well, naut makes his stun and bird easy to land.
Naut makes everything easy to land! CC on every ability, including passive, never gets old.
Lunch time pubbies. One of those games you should not win, but do.
1. We had no real tank.
2. We had no real support.
3. Our carry could not buy a kill, and decided that feeding on the jungle was too bourgeois.
4. As an AP (Brand) I was the kill leader.
Vi and Xin, bottom, did their level best to "tank." The other team had no jungler, so this at least let our Shaco invade and get aggressive, and this meant the top lane pair could not win the shared XP race against Vi. It was GP and Leona vs Vi up top.
Shaco was good early on, the other team was more or less land locked. I got 2 quick mid kills. Vi up top managed to get first blood, before succumbing to the opposing team's GP Grog Soaked blade.
Our bottom lane did well too, so far as not giving up kills but Vayne could not get in the mix and land kills.
I free floated Brand a lot, and quickly got 2/3 of our kills. My DOTS turned an aid up top into a double kill, and then a tripple kill as the Mid Kat tried to help. The river loves my ult though.
AP mid is carrying the team, no way we should be able to win. At the start our only chance was to get Vayne fed. But the other team does not buy a single piece of MR gear. GP bought Merc Treads, but that is it. The other team had a mid game rally, was moving only in groups, pushing out lanes only to the middle. Getting easy outnumbered or solo kills, whittling us down. GP and Leona also began to get a bit more tanky, more health, more armor. But still no MR.
We reform, and pull it back together. Vayne was still useless, but without MR I had a Rabadons, a Morellos, and a Void Staff already.
We managed to win before the end game. All the other team needed to do was get just a little MR. An Aegis or a Bulwark on GP or Leona, a Maw or Hexdrinker on Cait/GP, A Spirit Visage on someone.
They call 'em "AP Carries" for a reason. Carrying out of mid is a very common way to win. Fed AP Carries roam easily and typically gank well, and knocking down mid tower early provides tremendous map pressure.
They also keep the opposing team honest. If your AP is doing hellacious magic damage, your enemies will either build MR or die. In your case they seem to have chosen die, which is odd. Had they not that would have been one additional item slot and significant gold spent on it. That makes your physical damage dealers that much better and your tanks ever so slightly tankier. Sort of like the running game in football.
I just played one where our Ashe lived down to every pubbie standard and then AFKed. We were getting rocked. After she left, we won. I didn't know whether to report her or thank her.
I will chock it up to my awesomeness. It also helps that Brand is a beast in the rivers and jungles.
When I am on the other side, I am supporting, or Jungling, or Top and I see the AP mid is our kill leader, I get scared. It is still very easy to build a lot of MR. In particular AD carries and AD tanks got some good items with MR and Damage. It is also distinguished as the first match in a year, easily, with no Aegis, and first match of the season with no Bulwark on the other team. Our Xin was building one, a bit slow, but he had it.
Also, As an FYI, the new Monkey Agility stacks incredibly well with Witt's End.
Hey oily, I think I found you a new avatar whenever you want to switch it up:

Warmogs and frozen mallet make the atmas the better choice.
Not sure why you are stacking triforce and frozen mallet though.

Sheen is such a handy ability to have.
Related note, Iceborn Gauntlet works amazingly well on Gragas. You do a body slam to trigger Spellblade, and you get a big slow. You essentially get a 4 second slow, and after the body slam you get a superb AOE hit. That combos nicely with Liandry's, the spell burn is twice as powerful on slowed enemies damage.
I have been really working well with a Solo Top Gragas. He has such great natural Mana and Health Regen as well as damage reduction via Drunken Rage, he can poke well with the barrel, he can get gold and CS fast thanks to the barrel. And thanks to new items like Zona's, as well as classics like ROA and Abyssal, you can build him to be a really good off tank.
It helps get an AD in the middle, and most tops focus solely on armor early game. It guarantees some good mismatches to exploit.
Update on Sejuani Rework in progress.
Champion Designer
7 of 7 Riot Posts 11 Hours Ago
Hey folks, first update on progress with Sejuani here. Since the original post I've gathered a bunch of feedback, particularly through threads like this, and tried out various changes in internal playtests, some of which have tested well, some of which haven't and some of which are still works in progress. The goal of these changes is to try and maintain what people like about Sejuani while adding a bit more perceived impact/readability to her abilities, increasing her opportunities for big plays (and, if needed to balance that, adding a bit more counterplay in exchange) and investigating a bit of increased use of her boar/flail as thematic elements if appropriate.
Examples of things that have already tested well and are likely to be part of her rework (generally low risk quality of life improvements):
1. Changing the mark for Permafrost from a very weak slow to a non CC debuff. This allows allows the mark's duration to be extended to a longer value than would be appropriate for a slow and stops the mark from having a reduced duration against targets with CC.
2. A clearer particle for that mark so it's really clear at any point which enemies will be affected by Permafrost's activation.
3. Slightly increased responsiveness on Artic Assualt when it comes to detecting collisions with enemies and calculating travel through terrain, courtesy of some tech improvements since her development.
Examples of things still in testing (being experimented with to see if they work, not guaranteed to happen):
1. Base stat tweaks
2. Adding a bit of tankiness somewhere on the kit to better match Sejuani's thematics (tough warrior on a giant boar) and reduce the amount of damage she takes early on.
3. Changes to Artic Assault's behaviour on hitting an enemy champion (e.g. stronger CC than just a slow)
4. Whether Northern Winds should apply the mark for Permafrost and then have its gameplay tweaked (since the current 'bonus damage against Frosted targets' interaction would then be irrelevant)
5. Increasing risk of play slightly and in exchange increasing reward for good play to match.
The next step design side is simply more testing and iteration, both on the examples listed above and some other stuff. Then, once we've got a set of changes we're happy with, we'll refine those, balance them and, where needed then work with our art department on new visual/audio elements (e.g. the clearer mark for Permafost as above). As previously mentioned there's also some interest internally in tweaking Sejuani's appearance a bit. That's not my area of expertise so I'll try and catch IronStylus at some point and see if there's anything concrete about that can be passed on about that. As far as timeframe for all of this goes there's still a fair while to go - I expect we'll see at least one other rework out before Sejuani's. Stuff is progressing though and I'll update again in a while once we've got things more locked down design side.
Interesting, new matchmaking tweak now live. Queues will take up to 30 seconds longer with number of wins as an additional criterion.
Oh man, fire and ice last night. Or rather the unmoving object vs the unmoving object.
My team, just horrid, theirs just as bad. Skarner top, Swain Mid, Nunu jungling, Cait bot with my Sona. Cait is allergic to last hits and kills. 3 times early game we get Miss Fortune and her partner down to 1/4 health, while she and I are at 90+. Cait is blowing all her mana killing creeps. And she decides to kill the support tank first, not the carry. Miss on the other side is landing last hits, and manages to get a 3 kill solo when Cait has burnt her mana again, Nunu sits in a bush (the UPS man must have come to the door because he just sat there). All of my ults end with Cait running away more often than not.
The other team has no jungler. Yet Nunu does not decide to invade, preferring to fall behind sitting in the bushes.
But the other team was so inept. The game took an hour. They never push past the inhibitors, even when every one of our towers is down. We manage to catch them just after Baron, and wipe the team. But my team decides to slog past the one lane with super minions, rather than a fast track up the edges. As Sona I end up "tanking" one tower when Nunu and Skarner wait back for minions.
This happens 2 more times, until through pure accident, the other team gets our nexus turrets, and a super minion gets in for the kill.

Lock up your pets and put your eyes to the sky. The Fourth of July is here and fireworks a'plenty will prove it.
It's true that many suburbs aren't doing fireworks displays this year, but who needs the suburbs when Navy Pier has the most stunning explosions in the Illinois sky at their annual display? Check them out at 9:30 p.m. on Saturday.
If you think it's impressive when there's a homerun at The Cell, just wait until you see what Independence Day in the city has to offer.
And if you don't feel like dealing with the crowds downtown, take a lake fireworks cruise for a more private experience, or take your pick from the plethora of displays throughout the state.
And we know that fireworks are fun for the whole family, but leave it to the humans in the family. DuPage County Animal Care and Control officials say people should resist the urge to take pets to firework displays. Lest you want your pooch to become a July 4th dog.
Time to have a patriotic celebration, and what better way than with some bright and booming explosives?

26. George POINDEXTER III23,32 was born about 1683 in Middle Plantation, New Kent County, Virginia.2 He died on 12 March 1716 at the age of 33 in New Kent County, Virginia.2,24
There has been much conflict and discussion re the three George Poindexters. The PDA study group, after extensively studying the photocopies of the original St. Peters Parish records, have concluded that this George died some 20 years before his father. Many researchers have assumed that the death in 1716 was the father, not the son, but this does not seem to be the case. Records concerning George 3rd's brother Jacob indicate the George died in 1716, not their father.
His wife is listed as Mary in Pettit book; Sarah in the EPARC Poindexter online database. The parish records indicate that Jacob cohabitated with his widowed sister-in-law, Sarah Poindexter, and the death of George in 1716 seems to be the only candidate.
The only child of George baptized at St. Peter's was Mary and no wife was listed.
George POINDEXTER III and Sarah [POINDEXTER] were married.20 Sarah [POINDEXTER]13,24 was born (date unknown).
Records of St. Peter's Parish show that in 1726, Jacob Poindexter had been cohabiting with his brother's widow since 1718-1719. Only one male Poindexter's death has been recorded near this time - that of George who died in 1716. A Mrs. Sarah Poindexter named a child Julius Caesar in 1719 and received mysterious services for a year afterward. Evidently Sarah was the 3rd George's widow; Julius Caesar an illegitmate child, likely a child of Jacob. Either Jacob and Sarah married or were accepted as common law man and wife, as Henry was shown born to Jacob AND Sarah in 1726.
George POINDEXTER III and Sarah [POINDEXTER] had the following children:

Little Elmer Elevator (the father of the faceless narrator) would give anything to fly. Luckily for him, he's made friends with an alley cat who knows where a dragon lives, held captive by a slew of wild animals. It is Elmer's quest to free the dragon, and chase his own dream of flying, and to do so he must use all his cunning, courage and (most of all) kindness to accomplish his goals. Elmer makes for a lovable protagonist, whose most memorable characteristics are that he is kind and he is clever. Though many of the animals want to eat him, he finds ways around them that do no harm to anyone. Win, win.
The illustrations are plentiful, and the type set is large, so the fact that it is 86 pages is a bit misleading. It's a very short story that's simple enough for younger kids to follow, with all the adorable a grown-up can handle, making this book wonderful for full family read alouds, barring the involvement of any snarky teens.
To read on their own for ages 7+ and to be read as a family for all ages.

For years the Tampa Bay Lightning and the Washington Capitals battled for the top spot in the Southeast Division of the National Hockey League. But now the two rivals are in different conferences and while tonight's game will be played at the Verizon Center in a very snowy Washington there will still be bad blood between these two teams.
Washington looks for its 15th win in 16 home meetings with Tampa Bay on Tuesday night. The snow storm that is presently hitting the Nation's Capital could help Tampa Bay out. Like all of the Caps games for the past five years it is a sell out, tonight because of the bad weather it is likely that one of the loudest building's in the NHL will be quieter tonight.
The Capitals (16-12-2) have won four of five after a four-game slide that saw them total only seven goals. They scored three times during the second period of Sunday's 4-1 win at New York afterRangers goalie Henrik Lundqvist entered with an 180-minute scoreless streak against the Capitals.
The Lightning (17-10-2) have lost three of four overall and five straight on the road after starting 6-3-0 away from home.
Tampa Bay's Backup goal tender Anders Lindback has been good as of late along with back up Ben Bishop they have posted a 1.43 goals-against average over Tampa Bay's last seven games. However, coach Jon Cooper's team is 3-2-2 over that stretch.
This could be a battle between stars as Martin St. Louis who has six goals and eight assists over his last nine games versus Washington. Meanwhile, the Caps Alex Ovechkin leads the NHL in scoring and has five goals in his last four home games against the Lightning.
This could be a high scoring affair as the two teams have combined for 33 goals as Washington won three of four meetings last season.

Five bucks is five bucks…
If you haven't read it yet, you should read Bryan's (from "Charis Shalom") post called "It's Story Time". In this post, Bryan recalls how God led him to give $5 (okay, actually it was ₤5, but that's beside the point), and how he struggled with God over giving such a small amount. Please, read his story, and be reminded that God owns everything, including every penny that is in our pocket. This is how Bryan ends this story:
In that moment, God said this to me… even in the little things listen for my voice and follow my direction. Never underestimate the power of faith and obedience. I laugh thinking of the whole scenario. Me, begrudgingly obeying, having to be humbled to even approach the situation; this young man, desperate for a book with little value, finally humbling himself to ask God for help. None of it seems worthy of honoring by the King of all kings, but He provided nonetheless for both of us.
Are you willing to use and give every pound (dollar) as God directs? Does God really care about $5?

Hyundai Motor recalling 220,000 cars in the U.S.
SEOUL, July 23 Reuters reported that South Korea's Hyundai Motor Co Ltd said on Tuesday it had started earlier this month recalling 220,000 vehicles sold in the United States to fix airbag problems.
Hyundai will recall a combined 145,000 units of 2001 XGs and 1999-2001 Sonatas, and 43,000 2002 Sonatas to change airbag sensors. Separately, it will also recall 34,000 Accent hatchbacks to reinforce the passenger's roof pillar.
"The airbag sensors were found to be too sensitive," a company spokesman said.
Hyundai, Korea's top automaker, exported 37,007 units to the United States in June, up 19.6 percent from a year ago.

His point is that the obvious fallacy of that argument indicates that the logic is faulty.
You still aren't getting it. It's little to do with the Iraq war and everything to do with blatant logical fallacy.
The same people will be complaining when the Iraqis decide that they are going to follow Saudi and enforce a barbaric version of Sharia, where women are oppressed and killed. And then when the new government decides to toe out of line for even a second against the US's wishes like Saddam did, the whole process will start all over again. Great progress for the Iraqis.

For me, this is the best piece of music ever created. How can anything be so perfect? Most people say that Dol Guldur is the best Summoning album. Sure, it has a few amazing songs, but also 2 or 3 weaker songs, so as an overall album Stronghold is much better, because it has no bad songs in my opinion. I don't know what the other reviewers have against this album. I simply don't understand how they can't feel the beauty of the music.
Well, anyway, the atmosphere created on this album is slightly different compared to Summoning's previous works. It has less of the fantasy-feel, but more of a deep forest feel (for me at least). Also, if you look at the song titles, you will see that they didn't simply take names from the Tolkien universe (except for Rhûn). I have to admit that I didn't immediately fall in love with the album. It slowly grew on me. After the first 2 or 3 listens I would have given it 80% maybe, but after many more listens and after several weeks of listening to the album regularly, I came to the conclusion that this album is amazing. Each song has a very similar structure, but it doesn't matter at all, because they are all unique at the same time. The keyboard melodies are wonderful and the atmosphere that is created is a kind of dreamy atmosphere. Like I said before, I always picture a deep forest in the middle-age with a small path between the trees (don't ask me why). This is quite funny, because the cover actually shows a castle on a cliff and the album is called "Stronghold", but I don't think of a Stronghold at all while listening to it.
I like the Intro (Rhûn) a lot. I love the militar drum sound, and the fantastic keyboards adding to it later. A highlight on this album is the song "Where Hope And Daylight Die", where they used clean female vocals performed by Tania Borsky. That's a very nice idea to add some variety to the songs. Most of the songs start the same way: Beautiful keyboards, then the guitar kicks in, followed by the harsh vocals. Boring you think? No, not at all. At first I didn't like the production so much because I thought the sound quality was bad. But then I realized that the sound is clear, it's just the guitar riffs that are a bit dissorted and scratchy. The keyboards, drums and vocals are crystal-clear. The slightly dissorted guitars don't bother me at all anymore.
This album is a masterpiece. The mood and the atmosphere are wonderful. Buy this and see if you like it by yourself, don't let yourself influence by bad reviews too much.

Racoon, mink, beaver and woodchucks are prevalent. Upland meadows and woods provide a great environment for white-tail deer and fox. Birdwatchers frequently spot woodpeckers, bluebirds, orioles, herons, raptors and a variety of warblers.
The Dakota and Ojibwe Indians utilized the resources of the valley rich in fur-bearing animals, wild game, and useful plants. In the 1600s, European trappers arrived to engage in the lucrative fur-trade industry. Later, lumberjacks began to harvest the stands of white pine. Sawmills began to dot the St. Croix riverway and the industry flourished in the mid-1800s until the valley was cleared of white pine. William O'Brien, a lumber baron, bought much of the land once owned by the lumber companies. In 1947, his daughter donated 180 acres to be developed as a state park in memory of her father. Over the years, other privately owned pieces of land were added to the park which now totals 1,653 acres.
Sandstone outcrops formed millions of years ago by inland seas are found along the St. Croix River. Glacial activity played a major role in developing the picturesque valley. As the huge glaciers lumbered south, they scoured the sandstone and deposited soil and rocks of various sizes. As large masses of ice melted, the tremendous volume of released water cut through the soft sandstone, creating the St. Croix River and landscaping the wide, boulder-strewn valley.
The variety of vegetation types, the St. Croix River floodplain, oak-hickory forests, scattered white pine areas, marshes, oak savanna, upland prairie and rolling meadows, provides habitat for diverse wildlife populations. Wildflowers give color to the spring woods and the summer fields. One of the best canoeing rivers in the nation, the St.Croix offers pristine scenery just minutes from a major metropolitan area.
