Campus Degree Options in Colorado (CO)
Colorado Degrees: Expand Your Career in a Growing Economy
Colorado is poised to bounce back from the nation's economic downturn. Forbes Magazine ranks the state as fourth in the country on the list of best business or career destinations. Qwest and Dish Network lead the list of Fortune 500 corporations that call the state home, and Colorado's job market is becoming stable thanks to the expansion of leading industries such as mining, health care, agriculture, and education. The federal government also has a large presence in the state, which helps keep the state's unemployment level below the national average.
Colorado Careers Projected for Rapid Growth
Many occupational fields should experience expansion in the state, but some Colorado careers may offer exceptional opportunities for qualified applicants. A strong job market through 2016 is projected for the following Colorado careers:
- Construction Manager
- Registered Nurse
- Computer Software Engineer
- Mining Engineer
- Secondary School Teacher
Colorado expects that as many as 13,300 registered nursing positions and 5,940 construction manager positions could be added by 2016.
How Colorado Schools Can Help You Get Started
Colorado has a highly educated population; the U.S. Census Bureau reports that 35 percent of the state's residents have a Bachelor's degree and almost 13 percent have earned advanced degrees. A college degree from one of Colorado's many learning institutions may help you successfully compete in this expanding job market.
If you're already working, classes through online degree programs offered by Colorado schools can be arranged around your schedule. The The Bureau of Labor Statistics reports that the mean annual salary in 2009 for a computer software engineer in Colorado was about $98,590, and construction managers earned approximately $84,980.
As the largest private university in North America, University of Phoenix has locations nationwide, and is available online in most countries around the world.

Penn State honors Mauti, rest of seniors in season finale
STATE COLLEGE, Pa. (AP) — Penn State players wore "42" on the side of their helmets Saturday for injured linebacker Michael Mauti, and the team and students honored the senior class in an emotional ceremony before Saturday's season finale against Wisconsin.
Mauti and the rest of the seniors helped keep most of the team together in the offseason after the NCAA levied strict sanctions on Penn State for the Jerry Sandusky child molestation scandal.
Mauti, who wears No. 42, hurt his left knee during last week's 45-22 win over Indiana. A few seniors suggested wearing the numbers on the white helmets this week, but players didn't know about the honor until they got to the locker room Saturday before the game.
It was the first time since 1974 that Penn State wore numbers on helmets.
Players already have names on the backs of uniforms for the first time in team history after first-year coach Bill O'Brien sought to recognize Nittany Lions who stayed with the program.
During a pregame ceremony involving the families of senior players, the team also unveiled "2012" on the east facade of the stadium alongside the years signifying undefeated or championship seasons.
"Today we memorialize this team .... to ensure that they will be recognized among the great teams in program history," the Beaver Stadium public address announcer said.

Comments about HP 940XL Black/940 Tri-Color (CZ143FN) InkJet Cartridges Four Pack:
We use the cartridges with our HP8500A plus Office Jet. Both the printer and the quality of the inks are great! Highly recommend although the cartridges are pricey. The colors are vibrant and the quality of the copies are true to the photographs and the productions.
Good but expensive
By Rick
from Franktown, Colorado
Easy to use. Pretty expensive.
Great Buy for Price
By StarRA
from Camden, DE
About Me Heavy Duty User
HP products are the best by far. With the combo pack you save money. The XL in all colors is the way to go for heavy jobs so you don't have to change the ink as often. The easy access to replace the cartridge makes it a no mess task. Colors are crisp and ink dries quickly. Keep up the good work HP!
The Only One For Me!
By LizzieDee
from Klamath Falls, OR
I know there may be cheaper ink pkgs out there but I'm not looking because I am so satisfied with this purchase, it's the one I always replace my ink with so why look further? It's easy to install, no mess.. not even when you take the old cartridges out. I do a lot of printing and right down to the last page it prints, it's perfectly clear. Photos come out excellent, too! And they dry very quickly. Even if I make copies out of another copy, the print is vivid and bright. If you're looking for ink that you can depend on everytime to be clear, easy to install, and long lasting, this is the pkg for you!

Have not had any problems. Good product
Helpful Pick
By Pastor Sam
from New Ulm, MN
Product choice makes it easy to get all my copier toners needed with just one click to order. The savings are minute, but somewhat better than ordering as a black ink plus a combo color pack.
Good Value for Occasioal Use Printers
By Art's 747
from NY
About Me Infrequent User
I find that most infrequent users end up using more black ink than color ink, making this combo pack ideal for this type of user. If you buy all XL cartridges I believe they will dry out after a a period of non-use.

March 1, 2012.
For immediate release:
The Doha Centre for Media Freedom strongly condemns the raids on Al Watan TV and Al Quds Educational Television in Ramallah, the West Bank. "Such raids threaten basic rights of public access to information, press freedom and freedom of expression, the Centre's Director, Jan Keulen said. It is a blatant violation of human rights. There is no justification for such an infringement on the freedom of journalists at these stations, nor to endanger the rights of the Palestinian people to be informed."
Early on Wednesday February 29 (around 2 am), Israeli troops entered the said television stations under the pretext that they used unauthorised frequencies. Israel's Communications Ministry claims the stations received multiple warnings. A claim which is denied by the stations and the Palestinian Authority.
In the raids that took several hours, the Israeli military and officials removed transmitters, computers, other equipment and documents, effectively obstructing the stations from functioning. Both stations were fully licensed from the Palestinian Communications Ministry and, according to that Ministry, complied with all legal requirements and the PA's agreements with Israel.
The Doha Centre for Media Freedom furthermore calls for an independent investigation into the claims made by the Israeli Ministry of Communications. "If it is true that the stations received multiple warnings, this should be easy to prove, Jan Keulen said. But even if so, this does not justify any such military action that de facto silences their voices. According to Israeli-Palestinian agreements, this should be an internal Palestinian matter. The Doha Centre for Media Freedom will continue to monitor this case closely."
For further information on this topic, or to schedule an interview with the DCMF director Jan Keulen, please call +974 4418 2208 or email at firstname.lastname@example.com.

Comments about Mizerak Donovan II 8' Slatron Billiard Table:
Delivery was on time even though it took a couple weeks. Putting this product together was pretty much straight forward with the exception of a couple small things. Table looks nice, however, the "slatron" top is not what I expected. I know it is not real slate but it is uneven and I dont believe it will last very long since it seems to made of mostly wood. The felt feel kinda cheap too.

Watch out when walking around city schools. That drip coming from the ceiling lights may be toxic.
IS 204 in Queens is now the second school to report a dangerous leak during the first week of the school year.
Officials said a custodian discovered a PCB-laced liquid on a guidance counselor's office floor during the school day Monday.
They said the room was sealed off before anyone else could enter.
"We have leaks," said Schools Chancellor Dennis Walcott. "There are old lights and we are replacing lights."
The DOE said the latest leaky light was replaced Tuesday night and parents will be notified, as required by law.
View a full list of city schools with PCBs
At IS 204, the toxic juice actually fell out of the light fixture.
It's the second time that's happened within a week. At PS 41 on Staten Island, liquid with PCBs landed on a fifth-grade student during the first day of school.
"It's absolutely tragic that a child had pure PCBs drip on her," said Christina Giorgio of the New York Lawyers for Public Interest. "It's totally unacceptable."
PCBs were used in construction material until the late 1970s, when they were banned. Exposure can effect the nervous and immune systems and has caused cancer in animals.
The DOE is in the process of removing the lighting fixtures from 700 schools, after pressure from parents and advocates. But the city says it will take nine more years to complete the project.
Advocates and parents have gone to court to try to hurry things along.
"They are actually oozing out of the light fixture," Giorgio said. "The leaking is so perfuse at that point."
Walcott said the overall schedule won't change but they'll deal with leaks as they occur.
"We're still going to adhere to our 10-year timeline," he said. "But where there is a dripping that takes place, whether within the ballast or onto the floor, we're of course going to respond to that immediately."

MLB players name "Duck Dynasty" their favorite show
Players from around Major League Baseball were asked in a recent poll to name their favorite non-sports TV program. Which did they say was their favorite? If you read the title of this article you probably already know the answer, but the majority of players chose A&E's Duck Dynasty as their top TV show to watch.
Of the players polled, 28% sided with the Robertson family. Are you surprised? You shouldn't be. The ratings for Duck Dynasty have been through the roof. The final episode in their third season drew 9.6 million viewers. If you're unfamiliar with the program, give it a shot and try not to laugh at Uncle Si. He's like an older, more senile version of Kramer.

If you registered for membership in the past 10 days, please reregister. I'm certain I accidentally deleted you when I was pruning the membership lists yesterday.
0 Members and 1 Guest are viewing this topic.
I do use my debit card once a week or so on my "big" grocery store day, but I never go into the express line for that.
My addition to the list:*Please obey the "15 items or less" rule in the express checkout line, and if you have items that are going to take some time to ring up, choose another line!I became irked last night at the grocery store, when I went to one of the two express line with my two items and found that the woman in front of me had a stack of gift cards (my grocery store sells a variety of them) that she needed to have activated. Activating gift cards can take some time, so I think it was inconsiderate for her to have chosen the express lane, even if she had less than 15 cards (I couldn't tell, but it was a large amount). One card refused to scan, so the cashier had to call the manager over. It was then that I stepped out of that line and went into the other express line.I've also seen people unload way more than 15 items in the express lines - at grocery stores and at Target and other retail stores. The cashiers just don't seem to enforce the item limit any more.I miss having express lines that are "cash only." My grocery store used to have them, but now the express lines accept checks, credit cards and debit cards, too, and to me, there is nothing "express" about writing out a check (particularly since many people don't bother to get their checkbooks out and start writing until after their groceries are all bagged and totaled). Credit cards and debit cards are little faster, but not as fast as cash. Am I the only one who misses "cash only" lines, or am I just too impatient? Or am I odd because I prefer to pay in cash for many things, particularly when I go to the grocery store and only buy a small number of items? I do use my debit card once a week or so on my "big" grocery store day, but I never go into the express line for that.
Please don't park your cart diagonally in the center of an aisle then walk away to peruse the shelves at the other end of said aisle. I saw this 3 times in the same store the other day. and was glared at rudely when I had the audacity to move the cart so I and the other 3 people behind me could pass. Grrrrrrr
My favorite saying is, 'Fat Chicks got money, too!'I am a computer geek. I like techie gadgets. I also have a very good job that pays for said gadgets, so when I'm in a geekie store, don't ignore me! More than once I've had to take an armload of stuff to customer service (where the women were working) to ask questions about what was on sale. I've told them that the guys on the floor needed to be trained better than they were. You'd better believe that if I were blond and weighed 110 lbs, I would have had at least FOUR salesmen at my feet helping me within minutes. Hmph.
*Really organized shoppers take a weekday off to do their Christmas shopping and get the stores to themselves.

Its CHRIS BOTTI & FRIENDS NIGHT SESSIONS LIVE IN CONCERT Botti's star-studded performance featuring Sting and Shawn Colvin, was taped live at the historic El Rey Theater in Los Angeles in December, 2001 for air on DIRECTV. Shawn Colvin is featured on the Sting-penned "All Would Envy" and her original "The Facts About Jimmy." Sting performs "In The Wee Small Hours" and "Moon Over Bourbon Street". Additional DVD special features include a Photo Gallery, and interviews with Chris Botti, Sting and Shawn Colvin. "Sting's performance was spectacular and Shawn's contribution was sensational creating a night of musical magic. I've been fortunate to have played with some fantastic performers in recent years - both on stage and on my albums, but this night stands among the most memorable," says the trumpeter. The night was a critical success as well. LA TIMES Jazz critic, Don Heckman called Botti, "Visually charismatic, musically engaging and appealingly personable." Phil Gallo's Daily Variety said, "Botti's greatest strength is his beautiful articulation and a trumpet style that grounds his generally atmospheric backing. He plays neither jazz nor rock -- Botti's a mood setter -- and his television show, if it reflects the running order of the concert, will showcase an artist capable of moving an audience by adjusting the timbres and tempos, not only song to song, but often within a single piece of music." Performances on Chris Botti & Friends Night Sessions - Live In Concert includes: "Lisa"
"Streets Ahead"
"Miami Overnight"
"Steps Of Positano"
"Alone In the City"
"Easter Parade"
"Why Not"
"Blue Horizon"
Street Date: August 6, 2002. DVD bonus features include

* Video Profile of Chris Botti

We want to partner with you in prayer, so please submit your request to jackgraham.org/pray.
"Thank you ever so kindly for taking my daughter's name for your free CD, Overcoming Conflict. Our conflict came to a head this week! Apparently, God was listening to our hurting hearts. Thank you ever so much for this ministry!"
—A viewer from Denver, CO
"Thank you so much for the fantastically edifying messages that I listen to on WCHP. The signal carries even up here to Montreal. It can be quite difficult to get inspired and doctrinally solid teaching in English here, but Power Point Ministries fills a substantial gap. Thank you once again! That which is done for Jesus Christ is not in vain!"
-A viewer from Montreal, Cananda
In a letter, a listener from Little Elm, TX includes a list of reasons why she wakes up every morning to listen to PowerPoint:
"I am writing this letter to you with tears of joy in my eyes. I want to write personally to you to let you know that God has used you this morning to touch a heart full of anger and bitterness. … I could not believe that God can speak directly to people in this present age the way he spoke to me this morning through your message.
Thank you for speaking the Word of God this morning to me and to thousands of people out there who listened to you this morning, struggling with bitterness and anger in their heart like I do. I pray that God will always continue to use you to reach out to people through your messages."
—A viewer from Houston, TX
"This letter is just to plainly say thank you for your message this past Labor Day weekend. … My marriage was torn apart 12 years ago by homosexuality. … I am so thankful that you presented the truth to your people. That is what is needed today at this very time. … I want to thank you Bro. Graham for your message this past Sunday, and may God continue to bless you and your ministry."
—A viewer from Texarkana, TX
"I want to share a specific message of encouragement for PowerPoint. Our daughter of six years old was diagnosed with Type 1 diabetes last Thanksgiving. It has had a difficult impact on our entire family. She is upset about it very seldom but on Tuesday night, she cried and cried and cried, asking me why God let her have diabetes...didn't He say He wouldn't let anything happen to her?
I tried to give her a logical, analytical, biblical explanation to hold in her heart as to what could have happened, and why God would even allow something like this to happen. Finally, we cried ourselves to sleep.
The next morning at 8:30 we were in the car going to a client's, and your PowerPoint program came on and systematically as if God had given you her little list of frustrations, questions, and concerns, you answered all of them. You told her that we don't get to choose our circumstances but we get to choose what we do about them.
… I can't tell you how much it meant when she looked at me in the car and we both smiled and we knew that God had put you in place to answer her questions and to give her encouragement for her little heart. … I want you to know how much we appreciate you. Thank you so much."
—A listener from Dallas, TX
"My family attends Prestonwood and we have been 'playing church' for some time now. I must confess to you that I have been cynical, judgmental, envious, and selfish more often than not when I should have been looking inward and not outward. I used to make it a point to avoid listening to PowerPoint, but this morning I tuned in as we were dropping the oldest off at PCA. The Word you spoke cut through me like a knife through hot butter."
—A listener from Plano, TX
"Every weekday morning my devotion starts at 5:30am with Jack Graham on Premier Christian Radio with PowerPoint. I only discovered this radio station about 6 months ago and I can truly say that it's changed my life.
I no longer wake up to the local news station bearing bad news, I now wake up to hear a clear message from God's devoted servant speaking directly to my circumstances and touching my heart, this preparing me in the word for my day at work as an Prison Correction Officer.
I go to work each morning wearing God Armour, protected by his sword and covered with his precious blood. I am sincerely grateful that I can look forward to each day knowing that Gods love is so rich so pure so measureless and strong.
Keep up Gods word as I continue to pray for the Graham family here in London England."
—A listener from London, England

DEARBORN, Mo. — A 52-year-old Missouri mechanic and his wife claimed their share Friday of the record $588 million Powerball jackpot.
Lottery officials sent a statement announcing that Mark and Cindy Hill, of Dearborn, held one of two winning tickets for the nation's biggest Powerball jackpot.
"It's really going to be nice to spend time — not have to work — and be able to take trips with our family," Cindy Hill, a former office manager laid off in June 2010, said in the statement.
Her husband, Mark, is a mechanic at the Hillshire Brands meat processing plant in St. Joseph. The couple adopted a daughter from China five years ago and are now considering a second adoption with their winnings, according to the statement. They also plan to help other relatives, including their grandchildren and nieces and nephews, pay for college.
The Hills will split the nearly $588 million prize with whoever holds a winning ticket sold at a convenience store in suburban Phoenix. No one has come forward yet with the Arizona ticket, lottery officials said.
The $587.5 million payout, which represents the second-largest jackpot in U.S. history, set off a nationwide buying frenzy, with tickets at one point selling at nearly 130,000 per minute. Before Wednesday's drawing, the jackpot had rolled over 16 consecutive times without someone hitting the jackpot.
Lottery officials' announcement that the Hills had one only confirmed what many residents in Dearborn, a town of about 500 about 40 miles north of Kansas City, already knew. Lottery officials said Thursday that a winning ticket had been sold at a Trex Mart gas station and convenience store on the edge of town, and the Hills' names circulated quickly. While the Hills did not speak to reporters, friends and relatives identified the couple as the winners.
Myron Anderson, pastor of the Baptist Church in nearby Camden Point, said he heard Thursday that the Hills had won the huge lottery prize. Anderson said he has known Mark Hill since they attended high school together.
"He's a really nice guy, and I know his wife, and they have this nice little adopted daughter that they went out of their way to adopt," Anderson said. Funeral services for Hill's father were at the Baptist church, but the family attends church elsewhere, he said.
"I hope it's good news for them," Anderson said. "I've heard awful horror stories about people who get all that money in their lap and how everybody treats them, and if you don't mind me saying, I mean just the fact that the press is going to be after them." Continued...
Kevin Bryan, a lifelong Dearborn resident, said the only other local lottery winner he could remember was a farmer who won about $100,000 in scratch-off game years ago "and bought himself a combine."
The statement from the lottery didn't indicate whether the Hills planned to take their payout as a lump sum or in annual payments. Mark Hill does have his eye at least one thing: a red Camaro.
"I was just telling my daughter the night before, 'Honey, that probably never happens," Cindy Hill said about their odds of hitting the jackpot.
The winning ticket sold in Arizona was purchased at a 4 Sons Food Store in Fountain Hills near Phoenix, state lottery officials said.
In a Mega Millions drawing in March, three ticket buyers shared a $656 million jackpot, the largest lottery payout of all time.
Hill and the holder of the Arizona winning ticket have numerous decisions ahead, including how to accept their new wealth. The cash payout from the overall jackpot has been estimated at about $385 million, or about $192.5 million for each ticket. The winners can take their jackpots in lump sums or annual payments.

'A fun last 12 hours of sailing with an exceptional crew. We hooked into some good wind for the night and enjoyed some beautiful sailing - including our first view of the moon this trip and a couple of hours of great stars.
About 40 mins til we turn the corner at Lands End.. time to go to work. After finishing we still have 160 miles of sailing down the coast to Gosport where the boat will dock. '

Fashion Turkeys- Fugly Fads To Thankfully Put to Rest
No one is always perfect.
There are moments in one's life where you have had to have made some fashion missteps, it's only a part of growing up. It's normal, I swear, to not be perfect 365 days a year.
But to keep following the trendy flock without looking in a mirror or paying mind on how that fad works on YOU, is just plain silly…

2- No Swarmer is off limits.
3- No question is out of bounds.
4- Use @Swarmer to notify a nuglint of hims mandatory involvement.
4- Questioned Swarmers are required to answer.
I'll start.
Have you ever been hit on by a meep guy?
* Answering honestly is entirely up to you but try not to be a complete lying meepgot.
@sunny77 What do you like and not like about my self portrait?
everything and nothing, respectively. i also think you should make more use of the uploader
Dear LS, i've missed you, and then again, i haven't XD. @EVERY SWARMER YOU READS THIS: what the meep happened to you in your lives that made you want to (swarm/troll/browse/what ever the meep you do here) this site. Please elaborate on any childhood traumas, in fact elaborate on any trauma so that i may try my best to put a pathetic and uneducated analysis on the group psyche of those who feel the need to insult, counsel, and whatever else swarmers may consider themselves to be doing.
It's just fun.
if you have to ask, then you'll never know
Came for the links, stayed for the honest and brutal psychotherapy. Very few people in real life will tell you exactly how meeped up you are without holding your hand and wiping your meep. Here, there is no mercy. You are laid to the bone, no doubt about it. You walk away bleeding, but if you have any soul left to yourself, you will look at the truth exposed, and DO SOMETHING ABOUT YOUR OWN meepED UP meep.
I pissed my pants in front of everyone here more times than I care to mention, but I tried to fix it...and Wotak...Geez..All I can do is shake my head at that circus when he started. (and now he's "better") It is worth it. If you work the thing. It's Charlie's Family, without the fun meep, like LSD & Home Invasion Mass Killings.
Not easy, Sweety-Pants. Double hard for girls. Good luck.
^ I meant to quote your Monkeymeep..Ooops!
I do quite thoroughly enjoy brutal honesty, and i can see how LS can be an attraction to 'lost souls' to be overly cheesy, i'm not hurt by people on the internt, because on the internet, it's strange but people are actually MORE honest, the fake profiles and personas created i think are a bigger insight into that person than any conversation with a person right in front of you. It's thrilling, i was wondering if any of you would be willing to give me advice, since this isn't the appropriate place for such, i'm going to create a journal, please feel free to come and troll, maybe even surprise me with a nugget of knowledge.
How so, please elaborate on how that quote makes me hopeless. To clarify on that comment, when i said this place wasn't appropriate, i was referring to the forum, not the site, and since it's asking for advice on a personal level i felt a journal would be more appropriate since its not a link to an article. Also since i like to rant, i felt that a forum wasn't quite the way to go either.
Thats interesting, do you always associate captain america with meep? Perhaps you have a fetish for super heroes. The nachos can be an indicator of several things, a taste for dirty or 'unclean' meep, or perhaps a disinterest in meep, as though you view it as a daily chore perhaps? Either that or you have a eating disorder thats diminished your meep life so you use food as substitution for meepual gratification. @BigDinWaunakee
Also the captain america leads me to believe, that you may be confused about your meepuality, tell me what do you believe yourself to be, straight, meep, bimeepual, meep? Or any other form of orientation you prefer?@anothermonkeyenslaved
That was supposed to be a reply to bigdin. I really need to meeping polish my computer skills.
Do you think there is a psychologist, or a human for that matter, that is not 'damaged goods' in some way? I believe in order to understand the damaged psyche of another, you have to understand your own flaws.
Oh i know i'm screwy. I know that i have a great many issues that stem from my poor decisions and abuse that affect my daily life. I understand this. I'm well aware of them. What is your point?@JohnLenin
No, I just want a hummer and entertainment while satiating my hunger. I'm a very pragmatic and efficient German, so this checks three off the list of daily to-dos. That idea makes me hot (as a German).
You could easily substitute the following for the film: Harry Potter DH Pt2, Bridesmaids, Willy Wonka atcF (original)
You could easily substitute the following for food: pizza, steak, ravioli, melba rounds.
But there is no substitute for mouth meeping, so open up those jaws.
@beachgoat What is your favorite guilty pleasure?
I was going to go with food. but I never feel guilty about that.
Back when cars still had "windwings", when I would get irritated with folks, I would walk up and pop one open and pee on their driver's seat. Nowadays, I tends to pop a lunger on the door handle instead. They come out in the morning and get a handful of mucus first thing. Caustics on the body of the car (muriatic, etc.) are also nice. A dixie cup of acid does a world of hurt on a paint job. I am not fond of meep drivers, and we live in a very small town...it's not hard to find them. I feel kind of bad about that, but not enough to stop it from happening once a year or so.
I was hit by a car on my bike last Autumn, and he was the last guy to get the Goat treatment. Hydrofloric acid (Blue Flash) on his windshield. If he drives blind, meep him.
sorry bob, lol i just enjoy the reactions i get from people. Negative or otherwise. :D@bobacus
then you bark up the wrong tree, i'm not feminine in the least, i'm definately not slender, my jaws don't open for any man. You get yourself a meep and some big titties, i'm your guy, if your cute. Sorry bud.
Learn to be more flexible, then you will have no need to worry about it again.@BigDinWaunakee
How does that contradict?@Heather

New SRT Viper spotted in the wild
Sure, we've seen the 2013 SRT Viper at the New York auto show and in glossy magazine photos. But how does it look on the street, among other more pedestrian vehicles?
Autoweek reader Spencer Abbott spotted this 2013 SRT Viper cooling its heels in a Metro Detroit parking lot. Aside from the gas cap, the car looks just like the car that debuted at the New York auto show. Does the Viper look as good to you without the benefit of carefully placed lights and professional photography? Leave your thoughts in the Comments section below.

Local Boy Scout Pack Supports Re-Considering Ban on Gays
Boy Scouts of America will take up the issue at is national board meeting next week.
Boy Scouts of America is considering changing its longstanding policy against allowing openly gay members, according to a news release from the organization Monday. Under the change now being discussed, local Councils would be able to decide for themselves how to address the issue — either maintaining an exclusion of gays or opening up their membership. Monday's announcement of the possible change comes after years of protests over the policy — including petition campaigns that have prompted some corporations to suspend donations to the Boy Scouts.

I think you are right. I went along as a medical advisor to my wifes girl scout troop. And according to their rules I had to camp far away from the GS' campsite and could not come into it unannouanced. The rules seem to work that way for them.

2013 America's Cup
Sail-World.com : ISAF World Cup: Sunny, mild and light replaces the fury in Melbourne
ISAF World Cup: Sunny, mild and light replaces the fury in Melbourne
'Alex Maloney & Molly Meech (NZ) / 49erFX class Oceania Leg of the ISAF Sailing World Cup 2012'

Early in the morning the wind was blowing 15 knots out of the South and by 1600hrs, it was just less than half that and coming from the East. The sun also returned and pushed the temperature back to a more pleasant 20 degrees Celsius.
Sail Melbourne, the first round of the 2013 ISAF World Cup, certainly has had a mix of weather for which the host city is famous.
First out on Port Phillip were the Olympic 49er (Male) and FX (Female) taking the invited classes of 29er and Viper catamaran with them. In the case of the skiffs, it has been two days of waiting for the conditions to abate and they got four races completed to take the to seven.
Steven Thomas and Rhys Mara continue to capitalise on their early efforts and now hold a four-point lead over Luke Parkinson and Fang Warren with Will Phillips and Nicolas Brownie now in third place, seven points further back. Of their racing today, Will said, 'It was not our best day and a few things just did not click for us, but happy to claw back a little after not competing in the last race on Monday. What was really good was to see George Davies and Jack Lloyd win the last race today. Well done to the young ones. For us there's always tomorrow.'

the new Olympic class, the 49erFX, New Zealand's Alex Maloney and Molly Meech put a pair of wins and thirds together for their day's work to lead overall by four points from Australia's Tessa Parkinson and Kate Lathouras. Silver medallist, Olivia Price is on equal points, but cannot be considered for a medal as she is sailing with James Sly. In third place is the Norwegian pair of Ragna and Maia Agerup, 10 points behind the Australians.
In the lighter airs, the girls were certainly more competitive, especially at the start. Alex said, 'It was good racing as the fleet was closer - more consistent and more fun as a result. It was a good call to send us out early today.' Molly went on to say, 'It is really nice to race against others, instead of being on your own. The FX is so much fun and we like it a lot!'
The Men's RSX fleet is only small, due to late inclusion, but they are dedicated and keen. Luke Baillie leads Patrick Vos by two points after seven races, with Sam Treharne in third, a further five points back. Equally, the Paralympic Skud 18 fleet is small, with David Staley and Michael Lewenhagen leading by three points from Alan Merry and Robert Schahiger. A further three points behind are Russell Phillips and Justin Millsom.
Later in the afternoon the breeze remained very soft from the East, maybe holding five knots. This was making it hard going and ultimately, the 470s, Finns and Lasers got just the one race in before it was back to the beach, once more.
Mat Belcher and Will Ryan had another win to stay clear of Russia's Vladimir Chaus and Denis Gribanov, who are now clear in second place, one point ahead of South Africa's Asenathi Jim and Roger Hudson. The Ryan sisters extend their lead to six points from Lucy Shephard and Aurora Paterson, with Elise Rechichi and former rower, Sarah Cook now in third on 22 points.
Sunny afternoon at the Optimist class Oceania Leg of the ISAF Sailing World Cup 2012 -

the Finn, overnight leader Brendan Casey had his worst result today, fifth, but holds the lead by five points from Oliver Tweddell and then Jake Lilley a further three points behind. Jake also had his worst day so far and scored a sixth place for Race Six.
The Men's Laser still has Australia's Matthew Wearn on top having been second today and he holds a two-point buffer over Tom Burton. Moving in to third place is Ryan Palk, with Ashley Brunning now in fifth place. In the women's Laser, Kyrstal Weir holds a three-point lead from Ahsley Stoddart after her second place today and Singapore's Elizabeth Yin is third.
Ultimately the challenge for IRO Ross Wilson and his team may well be to find wind at Sail Melbourne tomorrow, Friday. Sandringham Yacht Club's world-class facilities are here, the sun looks set to be a starter, but the wind may be less than cooperative, after delivering way too much over the last two preceding days.
Ross said of the challenges faced by Race Management, 'It was good to see that the 29ers, who are mainly school aged children, enjoy getting out early today. Maybe they felt skipping school is a good thing. We're behind schedule now and looking at an extra race tomorrow for everyone and get away from their normal start times. The OK Dinghies will get two races from the normal time. Tomorrow is another day and it presents its own challenges.'
OK Dinghies, Optimists and International Cadets also got their first outing today as part of the invited classes at Sail Melbourne, added even more variety to the extensive program. The corporate guests were also enjoying a sail in the sun aboard many vessels, including the historic Couta boats.

I've ranked the year's top sports business stories the last few years, and it's usually a fun exercise and also helps remind me of the top stories of the year and what to watch for in 2012.
Typically, I've done a three-parter, but let's turn it into four this year. Click here for Nos. 20-16, here for Nos. 15-11 and here for Nos. 10-6.
No. 5: Indians attendance sags early, but rebounds. The team set new Progressive Field records for lowest attendance twice, with 9,853 and 8,726, but rebounded to draw a total of 1.84 million fans, a 32.4% increase over 2010.No. 4: The Indians make a surprising deal for Colorado's Ubaldo Jimenez. It was surprising, in that the Indians traded their top two pitching prospects, Drew Pomeranz and Alex White, for Jimenez. The Rockies ace's contract is team-friendly, but the deal still was a shocker, given the Indians' penchant for treating talented youngsters like gold. The team's issues weren't helped by Jimenez mostly flopping once he got here, and he's now playing winter ball in an unstated attempt to come to training camp in February in better shape. No. 3: Eric Mangini fired, Pat Shurmur hired. Browns president Mike Holmgren hires Shurmur, a disciple of the West Coast offense who studied under Holmgren protégé Andy Reid, the Eagles' head coach. Let's face it: The NFL is a cutthroat business, and Mangini's 10 wins in two seasons did him in. But with the problems Shurmur, a first-year head coach, has had in the locker room, many are wondering whether the Browns made the right decision. The team was less talented under Mangini, with a less-experienced quarterback. And now they've taken a step backward in Shurmur's first year, prompting Holmgren to say at his ill-fated news conference from a week ago that this is "like the second first year."No. 2: Cavs win Nos. 1 and 4 picks. That prompted Cavs owner Dan Gilbert's son, Nick, to coin the phrase, "What's not to like?" The Cavs, of course, got their second first-rounder in the Baron Davis deal with the Clippers, and that ended up being No. 1. The Cavs ended up taking Duke point guard Kyrie Irving and Texas power forward Tristan Thompson in a draft missing star players who ended up returning to college, such as North Carolina's Harrison Barnes.No. 1: NBA and NFL lock out players. The NFL is no worse for the wear, as the 60-day stalemate failed to derail sports' No. 1 entity. Ratings are up, story lines are juicy and until last week, the league had another team going for 16-0.The NBA? That remains to be seen. Not a week after the sides reached a deal, NBA commissioner famously rejected a deal between the New Orleans Hornets — which the league owns — and the Los Angeles Lakers to trade star point guard Chris Paul. Preseason games have been sparsely attended, and without the LeBron James carrot dangling in front of customers, attendance at Quicken Loans Arena figures to be low.

Jessica Fairley is a reporter with FOX 31 News
For the next month southwest Georgians will have the opportunity to take a trip through a winter wonderland of lights.
Friday night was the opening of the Chehaw Festival of Lights.
Since Chehaw has a zoo, the festival's theme is animals.
In the well lit forest, you can find antelopes leaping across cars and monkeys lighting up the trees.
While visitors are expected to view the lights from their cars, there is an area set up for family time.
"There's a place where people can stop, get out of their cars, go for a train ride, which is very cool. There's also a place to roast marsh mellows over an open fire. So it's kind of a nice little festival area for people to get out and have some fun," said Doug Porter, Executive Director for Chehaw Park.
The Festival of Lights will run from November 30th until December 30th.
The price is $15.00 per car.
