Flashwing's true origins are a mystery. But her first appearance came when Bash made a wish that he could fly and looked up to see a shooting star streak across the sky and land in a valley below. In the centre of the glowing impact crater was a large, brilliant geode - which suddenly cracked open to reveal Flashwing. Bash may not have soared that day, but his heart sure did, because Flashwing was beautiful... and lethal. As soon as Bash stepped closer, the gem dragon turned towards him. Not knowing if he was friend or foe, she blasted him off of the cliff with a full force laser pulse from her tail! Perhaps Bash flew that day after all.

Roller Brawl grew up with five older vampire brothers, who were all very big and overprotective. Being the smallest of her family, she learned how to use her speed and cunning to become one of the toughest jammers in the Undead Roller Derby League. It was during the championship match when she caught the eye of Kaos, who fell head-over-heels in love with her. But when her overprotective brothers stepped in, Kaos had them captured by Drow and taken prisoner. Roller Brawl swore revenge, but even with her impressive skills, she was no match for an entire Drow army. Having developed a strong distaste for evil, she joined up with the Skylanders to fight against Kaos – while never giving up on her search for her brothers.
Chill was the sworn guardian and personal protector of the Snow Queen. As captain of the queen's guard, her many heroic deeds had earned her the respect of the entire Ice Kingdom. But when the Cyclops army began to expand their empire into the northern realms, the Snow Queen was taken prisoner during her watch, and Chill has never forgiven herself for letting it happen. Ashamed and embarrassed, she left the Ice Kingdom behind and swore never to return until she could reclaim her honour. Now as a member of the Skylanders, she remains courageous and strong, while always on the lookout for her lost queen.

Hailing from a race of creatures who ate rock for a living, Rubble Rouser spent most days digging his way through the vastness of Deep Mountain mouthful by mouthful alongside the rest of his people. But Rubble Rouser found he could eat up far more ground with a swing of his hammer or spin of his drill. However, the leaders of his race wanted no part of changing the way they worked. That is, until the evil Rock Lords trapped them deep within the mountain. It was then that Rubble Rouser showed everyone the power of his ways by defeating the Rock Lords with his mighty hammer and drill. Afterward, the leaders encouraged Rubble Rouser to seek out the Skylanders, who readily welcomed him.

Fed's Bullard says economy slow, to recover in 2011
- Tweet
- Share this
NEW YORK (Reuters) - The U.S. economy hit a soft patch in the second quarter but is not likely to fall back into recession and will pick up speed in the first half of 2011, St. Louis Federal Reserve President James Bullard said on Friday.
"I don't think there's any question the economy is softer than what we expected as recently as 90 days ago, and we're all concerned about that," Bullard told CNBC-TV in Jackson Hole, Wyoming, site of an annual central bankers' conference.
The Commerce Department on Friday said U.S. economic growth slowed more sharply than previously thought between April and June, growing at a 1.6 percent annualized rate, after growing at a 3.7 percent rate in the first three months.
But Bullard said a double-dip recession is "not very likely at this point" and predicted growth would pick up in 2011.
He did not think the Fed -- the U.S. central bank -- was out of options to boost growth and said Fed officials have signaled they are ready to take additional steps if the economy weakens further.
This month, the Fed said it would reinvest proceeds from nearly $1.3 trillion in maturing mortgage-backed bonds in its portfolio into long-dated U.S. Treasury debt.
The bonds were acquired during the 2008 financial crisis as a way to keep borrowing costs low, and the decision to reinvest the proceeds in the government bond market was seen as a way to provide more monetary stimulus to a slowing economy.
Bullard has said the economy could be at "some risk" of declining prices, though it is not yet in a dire situation.
Some economists have urged the Fed to step up efforts to combat a slowdown, including raising the target inflation rate and buying more assets, including U.S. Treasuries.
"It's time to admit that what we have now isn't a recovery, and do whatever we can to change that situation," Nobel Laureate Paul Krugman wrote in the New York Times on Friday.
Bullard, in Jackson Hole to attend an annual conference organized by the Kansas City Fed that draws prominent economists and central bank officials from around the world, said any further quantitative easing should be "disciplined."
Fed Chairman Ben Bernanke was expected to discuss U.S. growth during a speech on Friday, though analysts don't expect him to offer details about whether the central bank will take more aggressive steps to help the economy.
Bullard said Bernanke has the support of "a huge majority" on the Fed's policy-setting Federal Open Market Committee.
(Reporting by Steven C. Johnson; Editing by James Dalgleish)
It would also appear that the U.S. government is out of ammunition when it comes to further economic stimulus. Having already accumulated a $13.37 trillion debt and having annual debt interest payments of $400 billion (incidentally, their interest payments are larger than the GDP of the top 21 countries in the world), they simply do not have the financial means to add further stimulus should it become necessary (as it already appears to be). As well, the recent commentary from Moody's suggests that the Aaa credit rating for U.S. debt could possibly be downgraded which would increase the stress on the American economy.

The question was asked — and answered — in a new interview with Lifestyle Mirror. Behind the burlesque bombshell facade, there's, well, a burlesque bombshell. Von Teese revealed that she doesn't "have a persona" to put on. "People responded to me well and enjoyed watching me perform when I was being myself, and not trying to be sexy or trying to be somebody that I wasn't." That wasn't all Von Teese had to say. Her best quotes from the interview, along with an exclusive behind-the-scenes video and a first look at the gorgeous vintage-inspired editorial spread, here in the gallery. This exclusive video offers a sneak peek inside the making of Dita Von Teese's latest editorial for Lifestyle Mirror, which was shot in Los Angeles. The burlesque dancer posed for photographer Francesco Carrozzini and was styled by Laura Duncan. 1 / 7 1 of 7 What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 Will she ever tire of her pinup look? "When I'm 90 years old, I will be wearing this red lipstick," she said. "I'm not trying to please anyone else." 2 / 7 2 of 7 What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 "I don't claim to be naturally beautiful. It's about self-creation and personal empowerment through the creation of glamour," Dita Von Teese told Lifestyle Mirror in an exclusive interview. 3 / 7 3 of 7 What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 As she continues to build her empire — with clothing and underwear line Von Follies and a fragrance collection as foundation blocks — Dita Von Teese has a vision. "Glamour is something you can do yourself. I've always enjoyed the art of self-creation and that's what I'm selling with my perfumes and my lingerie." 4 / 7 4 of 7 What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 If you're wondering how it all began for Dita Von Teese, it had everything to do with a childhood dream. "I wanted to be a ballerina when I was a little girl." 6 / 7 5 of 7 What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 "You don't have to be rich, you don't have to be a celebrity to get glamour," Dita Von Teese said. "That's what my entire career is based on." 6 / 7 6 of 7 What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 Friend and Decades co-owner Cameron Silver confirmed something we already suspected about Von Teese: "She lives as if there is always a red carpet under her feet at all times." 7 / 7 7 of 7 0 0 0 2 0 Read More Fashion NewsEditorialsDita Von Teese Dita Von Teese 5 Secrets to Wearing Red Lipstick Like a Superstar 1 week ago Jean Paul Gaultier's Butterfly Effect 1/22 This Is How Dita Von Teese Hits the Flea Market 12/11/13 Dita Von Teese and Blake Lively's Vintage Fashion Faceoff 12/11/13 The No. 1 Reason to Avoid Sweatpants When Flying 10/30/13 Johnny Depp Takes Amber Heard on a Punk Rock Graveyard Date 8/19/13 Get a Personalized Fashion & Beauty Newsletter!

A-Rod sues Yankees team doctor, NYC hospital
A-Rod sues Yankees team doctor, NYC hospital
NEW YORK — Alex Rodriguez expanded his assault on the baseball establishment with a lawsuit accusing the Yankees team physician and a New York City hospital of mishandling his medical care during the 2012 AL playoffs.
In a suit filed late Friday in New York Supreme Court in the Bronx, lawyers for Rodriguez say he was given an MRI on Oct. 11, 2012, that revealed an injury to his left hip joint. The suit said that Yankees physician Dr. Christopher Ahmad did not inform him of the tear and cleared him to continue playing, and accused them of medical malpractice.

Wrong Turn (2003)
Happily, the DVD reveals that Eliza Dushku is as savvy and funny as you'd want the girl who played Faith to be.
Storyville (1992)
Bourbon Street may not necessarily be known for its martial arts instruction, but Storyville is willing to get a little strange when it needs to.
Drôle de Drame (Drôle de drame ou L'étrange aventure de Docteur Molyneux) (1937)
Marcel Carné acts like the perfect traffic cop, guiding his characters through one absurd coincidence after another.
Black Sunday (1977)
John Frankenheimer's 'Black Sunday' serves as something of a transition between 'New Hollywood' and the more spectacular films that came later.
Tuesday, October 7 2003
Il Posto / I Fidanzati (1961/1962)
Like his subjects, Olmi lived through and went on to tell stories about the post-War Italian economic miracle.
The Italian Job (1969)
'Michael [Caine] at that time, did not drive a car. He could just about manage the idea of pulling up at three miles an hour.'"
Hollywood Homicide (2003)
My intention was to make a picture that on one level was a genre movie, summer movie, kind of a cop movie, whatever that genre is, and at the same time, to serve different gods.
Down With Love (2003)
He's mixing drinks in his bachelor pad, equipped with, as director Peyton Reed calls it, a 'really bitchin' television set.'"
The Debut (2000)
With such conspicuous racial politics, it's no wonder that Cajayon's 'little film that could' consciously shoulders the responsibility of representing Filipino-ness.
Cromwell (1970)
Ken Hughes' portrait of Cromwell allows him to recast the military, particularly its leaders, as betrayed by politicians of all stripes.
The Bedford Incident (1965)
Addresses the danger inherent in the military hierarchy and social isolation.
Tuesday, September 30 2003
Fargo (1996)
This is the film's genius, its simultaneous emulation and excavation of true crime's obsession with dull or spectacular minutiae, coupled with a refusal to make such details cohere into master plans and meanings.
Better Luck Tomorrow (2003)
'There are so many things that typify growing up in Southern California in the late '70s and early '80s. Miniature golf.'"
Bend It Like Beckham (2002)
Indian and British, white and brown and black, queer and straight. It's all in the mix.
Monday, September 22 2003
Wings of Desire (Der Himmel über Berlin) (1987)
Wings of Desire is the most optimistic of films, finding freedom and potential in the quotidian privileges most of us take for granted.
Versus (2000)
Versus and Ichi the Killer challenge the concept of righteous motivation, offering protagonists so morally ambiguous that it's difficult to distinguish who is 'good' and who is 'evil'.
The Dancer Upstairs (2002)
John Malkovich and Javier Bardem shed welcome light on their thinking about this sophisticated meditation on terrorism, trust, and desire.
Monday, September 15 2003
Targets (1968)
Draws parallels between Bobby and Charles Whitman, though there's a much larger issue at stake: the availability of guns, at the root of the rise of violence in America.

1. "Looks like" a kid's toy tractor, but made from what?
2. Not a step-stool
The primary component is made of cast iron.
3. Not a bench
4. Not a garden tool
5. Not a wagon or trolley
6. Not a tractor lawn sprinkler
7. Not a mailbox
The primary component is something that was used primarily indoors.
8. Not an electric grill table
9. Not a stove or oven
10. Not a doorstop
11. Not produced by John Deere
12. Not a kettle
13. Not a kitchen sink
14. Not a washing machine
15. Not a coffee table
16. Not a bread box – but roughly the same size as a large breadbox
17. Not a rabbit house
The green paint and John Deere logo were added by the artist.
18. Not a beer cooler
19. Not a cistern
My wife's uncle, Phil, has made a bunch of these.
Is it simply "Big Green and Yeller"?
It's green and yeller, but not terribly big, in my opinion.
– ericb
The green with yellow writing suggest "John Deere" to me. But John Deere what? Is it a kids tractor?
The writing definitely says "John Deere" but it is not meant to be a kids plaything (guess #1)
Now that you have "read the books cover", let's figure out what this really is.
– ericb
You figured out what it "looks like" but We want to find out what it is made from.
– ericb
It looks a little like those little steps stools that toddlers use to reach the bathroom washbasin but somehow I don't think it is.
2. Not a step-stool
– ericb
The paint work and slight dimpling suggest that it is cast iron and enamel ( am i getting to complicated?) And whether its meant to be a kids toy or not, my boys have decided they want one! LOL :0)
The majority of it is made from cast iron. And if you, your husband or a good friend are handy with tools, you should be able to find the parts and make one.
– ericb
is it a garden bench?
3. not a bench
– ericb
sorry, a garden tool?
4. not a garden tool
– ericb
hmmmm. You haven't met my (ex) husband! LOL make one you say…um is it a wagon or trolley for the garden?
5. not a wagon or trolley
– ericb
A lawn tractor sprinkler
Oh, I know the type you are referring to. Those are cool. However…
6. Not a tractor sprinkler.
– ericb
A mailbox?
7. definitely not a mailbox
– ericb
OK, I'm feeling generous this evening.
The item that this "tractor-like" object was fashioned from is normally found and used indoors.

January 5, 2014 - Bought these for myself after looking really hard for cotton / terry cloth slippers - which are REALLY hard to find. These are great! They keep the majority of your feet warm while not getting sweaty. The soles are perfect to go outside. Now my daughter wants a pair! So cute and practical. Thank you!!
November 26, 2013 - These slippers are really nice. So nice that I bought a couple pairs to give as Christmas presents. Very well made. And also, very comfortable.
November 11, 2013 - I love these nice and soft and love the design
November 4, 2013 - These slippers are FUNTASTIC!!! I smile every time I slide my feet into them! They're warm, comfy, cozy, and fit like a glove! I'm ordering a pair for my daughter & almost daughter-in-law for Christmas! My mom and my sister have passed and both had Breast CA; I have the BRCA 1 gene. If it wasn't for all of the R&D, I would not have know I was so high-risk, in time to do anything preemptively; 6+ post bi-lateral mastectomies, years later, I'm doing great! Buying these slippers is a fun way to contribute toward such a great cause; getting adorable things, is an added bonus! :-) jb
July 31, 2013 - Love these slippers. Buying another pair so I'll have another when my pair now wears out!

Photo Flash: Patron Anejo and John Varvatos Launch Limited Edition Holiday Bottle at Varvatos' Soho NYC Store High Res PhotosPatron Spirits has partnered with world-renowned fashion designer John Varvatos, the first-ever artist to collaborate on a new design element of the Patron bottle, to craft a limited edition bottle stopper. The inspiration for the stopper emerged from Varvatos' love of music and the pursuit of perfection. Varvatos, known for his rugged designs and lifelong interest in rock 'n' roll, applied his edgy, masculine style and harnessed his effortlessly cool attitude to create the bottle stopper exclusively for Patron Añejo tequila. Patron Añejo and Varvatos launched the Limited Edition Holiday Bottle at Varvatos' Soho NYC store last night, December 6th. Check out photos from the event below!

March 6, 2014 - I love this necklace and have received many compliments on it...
January 18, 2014 - It's a lovely necklace and the person I gave it to almost cried when I told her how many bowls of dog food her gift gave.
January 3, 2014 - I am so happy with this necklace, I wore it to work today and I had a number of people take a closer look at it/or comment on how nice it was. This is my new favorite necklace & I'm very happy with the quality. A very good buy!
September 23, 2013 - It is so elegant! I loved it!
July 23, 2013 - I like the design and size of the pendant. However, the chain broke before I even got a chance to wear it, so essentially I bought a pendant which I use with another chain.

Mexican Consulate relocates to Miami's Brickell area
- Oscar Pedro Musibay
- Reporter- South Florida Business Journal
- Email | Twitter | Facebook | Google+
The Consulate General of Mexico is relocating to 23,000 square feet in Miami's Brickell Avenue financial district from South Miami.
The consulate office will occupy three floors at 1399 S.W. First Ave. in early 2012, according to Blanca Commercial Real Estate, which represented the building's landlord.
Danet Linares and David Valdez, both executive VPs at Blanca Commercial Real Estate, represented landlord Chestnut Capital in the transaction. Andrew Trench, previously of Holly Sime Realty and currently with Taylor & Mathis, represented the Consulate General of Mexico.
The neighborhood's culturally diverse business community and its status as an established hub for world trade and commerce were big drivers behind the move, Blanca Commercial Real Estate said.
"Not only is the property adjacent to an array of restaurant and retail options, it is also down the street from hundreds of global financial institutions, consulates and foreign trade offices along downtown Miami's prestigious Brickell Avenue," Valdez said.
Oscar Pedro Musibay covers real estate.

num2CellStr converts numeric or logical array to a cell array of strings
| Watch this File
num2CellStr - converts numeric or logical array to a cell array of strings
This was inspired by a recent FEX submission of the same name. However, it should run about 100 times faster. It also runs ~12 times faster than the one liner:
cellA = reshape(cellstr(num2str(A(:))),size(A));
strCell = num2CellStr(x, format)
Input parameters:
x - mandatory matrix of numeric values format - optional format specifier. If not specified one is picked based on the data up to 5 decimal places
Output parameters:
strCell - cell array of strings
ans =
'0.06' '0.61' '0.13' '0.39'

Extremely useful! Works just like I thought it would.

I love women who are bosses and who don't constantly worry about what their employees think of them. I love women who don't ask, "Is that OK?" after everything they say. I love when women are courageous in the face of unthinkable circumstances, like my mother when she was diagnosed with stage IV pancreatic cancer. Or like Gabrielle Giffords writing editorials for the New York Times about the cowardice of Congress regarding gun laws and using phrases like "mark my words" like she is Clint Eastwood. How many women say stuff like that? I love mothers who teach their children that listening is often better than talking. I love obedient daughters who absorb everything—being perceptive can be more important than being expressive. I love women who love sex and realize that sexual experience doesn't have to be the source of their art. I love women who love sex and can write about it in thoughtful, creative ways that don't exploit them, as many other people will use sex to exploit them. I love women who know how to wear menswear.
Stop setting yourself
on fire for someone who
stays to watch you burn.
- Always say yes to seeing friends
- Eat breakfast every day
- Recognize that positive change rarely happens overnight
- Accept the fuck-ups, but try not to let them happen again
- There is a song to remedy every situation on the planet
- Appreciate the people in your life
- Look for the good in everything
- Try new things and try them often
- Treat yourself as well as you treat others

Fantasy Basketball Daily League Picks 1/22/14
Daily Fantasy Basketball Du-Rant
The Daily Fantasy Basketball Du-Rant provides you daily recommendations in a four tiered format, with specific targets for GPP tournaments (Guaranteed Prize Payout tournaments) and separate players that may be more geared towards Double Up (DU) contests. It does not mean they are only worth playing in said format, just that I like them in that type of format a little more.
Daily Dandies
For those of you checking out my recommendations for the first time, I group the players in A,B,C,D Tiers as a play on the old A,B,C,D basketball camps and as an easy way to distinguish player tiers. (All prices are according to Draft Street). If you have any specific questions post them in the comments section and I will answer them asap or send me a tweet by clicking on my twitter handle at the top of this article. To see who is starting each night visit our NBA Lineups Page.
A-All Star priced players that should put up All Star stats today (target 35+ FP, $15,000-on up).
Forward Blake Griffin (19.3%) is averaging about 41 FP over his last six games and 41 is the total he reached the last time he played the Bobcats.
Guard John Wall (17%) will be facing a Celtics backcourt that will be without both Rajon Rando and Avery Bradley. The Celtics will instead roll with the mighty little man Phil Pressey and a recent 10-day signee in Chris Johnson.
B-rated Ballers: Big name players with big games, but not as high of a price tag as the top five or so priced players at each position (around 30 FP, $12,000-$15,000).
Guard D.J. Augustin (14.3%) Kirk Hinrich is out for about a week with a hamstring injury, so Augustin will move into the starting lineup versus the Cavs who are giving up the sixth most FP to opposing point guards over the last 15 days
Center Tyson Chandler (13.5%) opponents are rebounding at a 47% clip on the season against the 76ers, which is second worst in the league behind the Lakers, and Chandler has hit the boards hard of late grabbing 33 in his last three games combined.
C-as in players that COULD be in line to provide you with good to great value in the mid-tier price range (target 25+ FP, $8,000-$12,000).
Forward Taj Gibson (9.9%) Carlos Boozer has been ruled out for tonight's game against the Cavs. Gibby averages 9.7 ppg, 7.8 rpg, and 1.5 blocks in 97 career starts and has been even better this season with 16.7 ppg, 10.7 rbg, and more than a block per game in three starts. Cavs own the worst defensive efficiency rating versus power forwards this season.
Guard Ramon Sessions (9.3%) price tag is still very reasonable and will get the start agian for the Bobcats with Kemba Walker out with an ankle injury. Sessions posted 25 FP in his start on Monday and will be facing a banged up Darren Collison (sprained left big toe).
Center Kris Humphries (11.3%) is cheaper than Jared Sulliner by about 1.4K and Hump has out produced him by over 20 FP the last two games.
D-Discounted Dandies: Players on the cheap whose production may exceed what their discounted price tag suggests. (Double Digit Fantasy Production, $3,500-$8,000).
Center Kevin Seraphin (7%) finished with 16 points, seven rebounds and a block in place of Trevor Booker on Monday. Booker is a game-time decision with a sore ankle.
Guard Phil Pressey (7.6%) will get the start tonight in place Rajon Rondo who has been given the night off.
Best of Luck tonight, and for you season long players looking for some help check out this week's Fantasy Basketball Wire Wire Pickups and if you have any questions go rouge and post them in the comments section and/or send me a tweet.

Godfrey, IL boy bitten by monkey to seek rabies treatment
GODFREY, Ill. (AP) - A southwestern Illinois prosecutor says a boy bitten by a pet monkey during a dog event will undergo precautionary rabies vaccinations rather than having the primate euthanized to see if it's infected with the disease.
Madison County State's Attorney Tom Gibbons tells The (Alton) Telegraph that the decision involving the 6-year-old boy came after the prosecutor's office consulted with the child's parents.
The monkey named Nina has been in quarantine since it bit the boy June 2 when the child tried to pet the java macaque during a yearly "Bark in the Park" event in Godfrey.
No charges have been filed, and Gibbons' office is trying to determine who legally owns the monkey.
Dr. David Hall with Madison County's animal-control office says his agency was seeking advice from the Illinois Department of Agriculture.

The Presence of Joy
By BARBARA MALLONEE
November 22, 1991
The great are sometimes very great and sometimes very small. Inthe soaring space of a symphony hall, the violinist Midori looks momentarily lost. But on any stage, she has presence.In her presence, a roomful of young musicians at the Peabody Conservatory last spring grew silent as Dean Eileen Cline and Rebecca Henry, chair of the preparatory string department, introduced Midori. She had made her concert debut at age 11. Now 19, Midori Goto (she never uses her last name in public) stood at the foot of the stage in North Hall with its high windows and bare wood floor to talk with schoolchildren, high school boys, adolescent girls, at least one of whom, like Midori, hopes fervently to grow taller than her mother.
Synagogue looks to create eruv downtown
By Natalie Sherman, The Baltimore Sun
January 31, 2014
Isaac Hametz doesn't identify as an Orthodox Jew, and neither do many of the Jewish people living in downtown. But the 30-year-old was enlisted by the leader of Lloyd Street's B'nai Israel congregation for a singularly Orthodox quest: Determine how to create a downtown eruv, a ritual zone typically marked by wire or string that makes possible certain activities otherwise forbidden on the Sabbath. Rabbi Etan Mintz, who joined B'nai Israel in August 2012, said an eruv is critical to helping the 140-year-old congregation attract and retain families, and ultimately re-establish itself as the center of a thriving downtown Jewish community.
Generals urge smaller U.S. presence in Iraq
By MARK MAZZETTI and MARK MAZZETTI,LOS ANGELES TIME
October 1, 2005
WASHINGTON -- The U.S. generals running the war in Iraq presented a new assessment of the military situation in public comments and sworn testimony this week: The 149,000 U.S. troops in Iraq are increasingly part of the problem. During a trip to Washington, the generals said that the presence of U.S. forces was fueling the insurgency, fostering an undesirable dependency on American troops among the nascent Iraqi military and energizing terrorists across the Middle East. For all these reasons, they said, a gradual withdrawal of U.S. troops is imperative.
Southwest eyes regional expansion with 54 new slots at Reagan airport
By Kevin Rector, The Baltimore Sun
January 30, 2014
Southwest Airlines won 54 slots recently vacated amid federal litigation at Ronald Reagan Washington National Airport, expanding its already-large presence in the region. The airline said its pending growth at Reagan, where its number of daily departures is expected to balloon from 17 to 44, will not impact existing schedules or routes out of BWI Thurgood Marshall Airport. "We have about 240 flights a day from BWI, and we're not expecting that to change," said Dan Landson, a Southwest spokesman.
Yankee go home, or to Honshu Okinawa vote: Islanders want reduced U.S. military presence.
September 10, 1996
THE REFERENDUM to reduce the U.S. military presence on poor little Okinawa was a cry from the heart of people who believe themselves second-class citizens of Japan. It may weaken Japan's coalition government because the leading Liberal Democratic Party shows no real sympathy for Okinawans on this issue, while its junior partner, the Social Democratic Party, does.Only three-fifths of eligible Okinawans voted, which is low for a Japanese election. But nine-tenths of those favored reduction of U.S. forces and reduced legal status for them, which is high for any referendum.

U.S. Foodservice buys Allen Foods of St. Louis
By June Arney and June Arney,SUN STAFF
December 6, 2002
U.S. Foodservice said yesterday that it has acquired St. Louis-based Allen Foods Inc. in an effort to expand its reach in the Midwest. "Allen Foods has been one of the most respected names in the food service business," Robert Gillison, vice president and treasurer of Columbia-based U.S. Foodservice, said yesterday. "We had an opportunity to do a transaction with them, and really beef up our presence in what is one of the best and largest markets in the country." Gillison declined to disclose financial terms of the transaction.
A risen presence

WHEN THE Academy of American Poets sought nominees to grace commemorative stamps, Langston Hughes far outpolled other lyric notables. The popularity of the Harlem Renaissance poet is but one example of, in the words of biographer Arnold Rampersad, Hughes' "risen presence in the national culture." His poems, novels, short stories, plays, librettos, translations and essays - he covered the Spanish Civil War for The Afro-American newspaper in Baltimore - are being reissued in a 17-volume collection of his works, the first ever.
Kelechi Osemele not budging from spot on first offense
By Edward Lee

When left tackle Bryant McKinnie reported to Ravens training camp five days late, many figured that 11-year veteran would need some time to get back in shape, but would soon regain his spot on the first offense. That hasn't happened yet. McKinnie is still playing with the second offense while Michael Oher and rookie Kelechi Osemele man the left and right tackle positions, respectively, with the starting offense. McKinnie's presence would appear to set the stage for Oher to return to right tackle and for Osemele to find a spot with the second offense.

Guns don't kill people, popcorn kills people. Or maybe it's texting. Or just being in the wrong place at the wrong time with some fool who thinks he needs to take a gun to the movies. Each and every day it is possible to scan the news from across America and find an example of human stupidity turned lethal by the presence of a gun. This week's top horror is the shooting of a father out on a kid-free date with his wife who was gunned down by an idiot with a pistol in his pocket. Except he wasn't really an idiot.

When the Morgan State football team took the field at Hughes Stadium in Baltimore for Saturday's home and Mid-Eastern Athletic Conference opener against Norfolk State, the Bears did not run to the sideline closest to their fans, their marching band and their cheerleaders. Instead, the team stood on the visitors' sideline - in front of the Spartans' fans, marching band and cheerleaders. After the 27-21 loss, Morgan State coach Donald Hill-Eley explained his decision to have the team stand on the opposing sideline.

By Jeff Barker, The Baltimore Sun

In the mid-1980s, a Gilman offensive lineman named Mark Agent enrolled at Maryland to play football. After that, years turned into decades before the Terps managed to take the next step with the Baltimore school. Longtime Gilman coach Biff Poggi said he can't recall another Greyhounds player committing to Maryland until fullback Kenneth Goins selected the Terps , arriving as a freshman last season. Goins was followed by quarterback Shane Cockerille a year later. For Maryland, it's akin to a thaw after a long winter.

In Obama's America, the federal government comes first
Robert L. Ehrlich Jr
August 11, 2013
Elections have consequences. People who attain political power daily make decisions that affect citizens in myriad ways, some not so obvious. For example, one of the more underanalyzed (but long lasting) consequences of a re-elected Barack Obama is the ongoing expansion of federal control, overseen by an administration intent on federalizing just about anything standing in its way. No halfway-interested citizen can claim surprise. This president's life is a model of progressive activism, from Harvard Law School to (Chicago)
