The curriculum of the department of classics offers students opportunities to study the Mediterranean world of the ancient Greeks and Romans and, to a more limited extent, the societies of the Near East and Egypt. Some courses also stress the classical tradition, the western inheritance of Greco-Roman ideas and art forms. The department offers varied kinds of courses through which students may approach the study of the ancient world, including courses in Greek and Latin.
The classics curriculum offers a broad interdisciplinary approach to classical studies which prepares students well for a wide range of careers. A broad liberal arts education and training in critical, rigorous thinking and writing provide our students with the tools necessary to succeed in such varied careers as law, teaching, journalism, and business, and to adapt well to the rapid pace of change characteristic of contemporary life.
To facilitate students' exploration of the diversity and complexity of the ancient world and the contemporary disciplines that study it, the department of classics groups its courses into five categories: 1) Ancient History and Society, 2) Archaeology and Material Culture, 3) Myth and Text, 4) Greek, 5) Latin.
The Major and Minors in Classics
The department recommends that a student choosing a major or minor in classics develop a focus in at least one of the above categories. Students who may have an interest in pursuing graduate studies in classics are strongly recommended to include concentrated language study of Greek and Latin in their curriculum.
A major in classics consists of a minimum of eight courses, with the following requirements:
- at least two courses in Greek or Latin.
- at least two courses in classics offered by the department of classics. Additional courses that relate to classics offered by other departments (e.g., ARTH 101) may be applied to the major in classics with the adviser's approval. No more than two such courses at the 100 level can count toward the major.
- a Culminating Experience in classics:
Students may complete the Culminating Experience in Classics by choosing one of the following options during or after the second semester of their junior year:
- taking one 300-level classics seminar
- taking a credit-bearing classics experience outside Bucknell, such as: archaeological field experience in Greece, Italy, or other ancient sites in the Mediterranean area. This option must be cleared by both the student's academic adviser and the chair of the classics department in order to count for the Culminating Experience.
- writing an honors thesis in classics (a one-year sequence). This option is reserved for those majors with a GPA of 3.5 or higher.
In these and other experiences within the classics major, professors will also emphasize the following main areas of competence: written and oral communication skills and information literacy.
Students are encouraged to choose an honors program in classics, Greek, or Latin. Candidates for honors must take CLAS 321-322 and pass with distinction the oral examination on the thesis.
The department strongly encourages its majors to study abroad in a Mediterranean setting, in Italy or Greece especially. Several options, for a semester, a year, or a summer, are available.
Three minors are offered by the department of classics.
- The Greek minor consists of four full-credit courses in Greek at any level taken at Bucknell.
- The Latin minor consists of four full-credit courses in Latin at any level taken at Bucknell.
- The minor in classics consists of five courses in classics, including no more than two courses in Greek and/or Latin. The minor in classics may include up to two courses offered by other departments or programs, chosen from a list that is periodically updated. This list includes HUMN 98, ARTH 101, PHIL 205, and POLS 250.

Oscar De La Hoya checked himself into rehab voluntarily and tells TMZ he feels he will come out "a stronger, healthier person."
As TMZ first reported, De La Hoya entered a rehab facility in California sometime within the last few weeks. We're told De La Hoya is seeking help for substance abuse issues. A source close to the boxing legend tells us he has "voluntarily commenced proactive treatment to address certain health and personal issues."
De La Hoya issued a statement to TMZ that reads, "After doing an honest evaluation of myself, I recognize that there are certain issues that I need to work on. Like everyone, I have my flaws, and I do not want to be one of those people that is afraid to admit and address those flaws.
"Throughout my career and my life, I have always met all challenges head-on, and this is no different. I am confident that with the support of my family and friends, I will become a stronger, healthier person.
"I ask for respect and privacy as my family and I go through this process."
Well, all JC Penneys are putting Sephoras in the middle of their stores. That might make him fell better...
Forget rehab Oscar, just drink some tiger blood and get yourself a couple of goddesses and the problem will instantly disappear.
U have flaws? We already knew that Oscar. You knocked up that bimbo Shanna Moakler chick back in the day.
If you were meeting all challenges head-on you wouldn't have had time for that crap. So don't tell us how tough you are. Tough people don't do drugs. Only the weak ones.
Darn kids-we need to spend more time and resources teaching them to think more and to stay away from stupid stuff that is harmful to them...
And his attorneys all ganged up on the FIRST mother of his children. Yep. Oscar's got some flaws alright, but media seldom gets it right.
See the "NEWS" section of www.familylawcourts.com
"I do not want to be one of those people that is afraid to admit and address those flaws."
Read: I'm not Charlie Sheen.
It's time to post the pics purporting to show him in panties, fishnets and heels. Who has the link?
Hope that's what he meant , "I Have My Flaws"

By: Hollie Hojek
The Army Corp of Engineers is lowering water releases in Yankton South Dakota, in order to make repairs on the Gavin's Point Dam. But between this past summer's drought and lower releases, the city of Yankton is concerned about what will happen to its own water supply.
The problem actually dates back to the summer of 2011. The Missouri River Flooding caused a sand bar near the city's in-take pipe, preventing water from coming in to the plant. So in order to fix the problem, the city had to raise the pipes in the water. But, now that's causing some concern now that the river levels are running low.
"What you have, is it creates a vortex, and you start to suck air. And it air locks our pumps. So our concern is, are we going to have enough water coverage over our intakes to be able to pump water through the winter," said Kyle Goodmanson, environmental science director for the city of Yankton.
Right now the city only has about four feet of water covering it's intake pipe, which doesn't leave much breathing room, considering the Corp is expected to drop river levels another two feet.
"You go from 160,000 CFS (cubic feet per second) down to 12, so it's really tough to manage. You can't predict what the weather is going to do, the Corp's management somewhat changes so, it's kind of the unknown that makes it difficult to manage," said Goodmanson.
The City of Yankton says it has does have piping in place as a sort of "worse case scenario," back up plan, if the water levels get too low.

Excitement is running as high as expectations at Delta Middle School, where a new leadership team is building cohesiveness among an instructional staff that includes many transfers and new hires.
In the days leading up to the first day of school, principal Adam Truitt and assistant principals Jennifer Magner and Timothy Fifer met with staff to take a close look at what the school has to celebrate, and where systems can be put in place to put DMS back on top.
At the heart of the effort is the motto, "Believe - Achieve - Succeed."
"We've looked closely at each of those words, and defined what they will look like in our building," Truitt said. "We've got a fantastic group of people, and we're all fired up about moving forward."
Truitt was previously assistant principal at Garnet Mesa Elementary School for two years. He grew up in the Phoenix area and earned a bachelor's degree in elementary education from Arizona State University. He says he has traveled the "playgrounds of the world." He taught in Telluride and Olathe and was the director of instructional technology in Montrose County School District for two years. He made the move to administration after obtaining a graduate degree in educational leadership from Mesa State.
He is married and has three children. "Delta is the perfect fit for me and my family," he said.
Jennifer Magner is beginning her 10th year at Delta Middle School, having taught science for the previous nine years. She grew up in Delta and graduated from Delta High School in 1997. She attended York College in Nebraska, where she met her husband Nate, a teacher at Garnet Mesa Elementary School. They have three children.
The Magners worked in Wichita, Kan., for three years before moving back to Delta. Jennifer obtained her graduate degree from Fort Hays State.
Fifer grew up in Montana and attended Rocky Mountain College and Colorado State University. With a degree in school social work, he taught courses in social skills, communication skills and college planning.
"One of my mentors, Ava Lanes, knew I was looking at moving into school administration," he said. "She had worked in Delta County and felt it would be a good fit."
For the past two years, Fifer has been the assistant principal at Lincoln Elementary School. He and his wife have a blended family of four children.
Both Magner and Fifer felt the move to administration at DMS was the next logical step in their careers, and the decision was made even easier when they learned Truitt would be principal. The three are looking forward to working with DMS students, with their families and with the teachers in their classrooms.
They invite students, staff and families to celebrate the start of an amazing school year at a back-to-school night Thursday, Aug. 22, beginning at 5:30 with a hot dog barbecue and staff meet-and-greet. There will be welcoming comments, classroom visits and school tours, as well as a hot dog eating contest. Don't be surprised to see a superhero or two in the crowd.

Norwich City 3-4 Manchester City: Dzeko double enough for champions in end-of-year cracker
Roberto Mancini's side secured all three points despite making the match a lot tougher for themselves than it needed to be, with Samir Nasri receiving a straight red card
By Ryan Benson at Carrow Road
Manchester City ended 2012 with three points after narrowly beating Norwich City 4-3 at Carrow Road in a fantastically entertaining encounter.
City raced into a two-goal lead thanks to two Edin Dzeko goals, but Anthony Pilkington pulled one back before Sergio Aguero got the Premier League champions' third before half-time.
Samir Nasri received a straight red card and Russell Martin another back for the hosts, and later got a second of his own after Mark Bunn had put the ball into his own goal as City claimed all three points.
Despite losing to Chelsea last time out, Norwich only made one change, which saw the much-maligned Steve Morison start in place of Grant Holt, who picked up a late injury.
Roberto Mancini, however, was understandably annoyed with his side's performance against Sunderland with four players suffering in particular. Kolo Toure, James Milner, Javi Garcia and Carlos Tevez all dropped to the bench as Gael Clichy, Gareth Barry, Nasri and Dzeko replaced them.
Last season, Norwich lost 5-1 and 6-1 at the hands of Mancini's side and from the first five minutes it looked like being a similar scoreline. In just the second minute Sergio Aguero and Dzeko combined well down the right before floating the ball over to the left for David Silva, who in turn cushioned it into the area and the Bosnian fired it past Bunn for the opener.
Norwich looked stunned and found themselves even further behind on the visitors' very next attack. Vincent Kompany powered through the middle, riding a challenge from Bradley Johnson before picking out Aguero, who took his time and picked out Dzeko to double his tally.
After the champions' impressive start, the match threatened to calm down, but Norwich had other ideas. Robert Snodgrass' mazy run resulted in a controversial free kick on the edge of the area, and thanks to a deflection from the wall, Pilkington's low effort beat Joe Hart.
Despite the Norwich goal, the champions continued to dominate and almost got a third through Yaya Toure before things turned sour right at the end of the first period as Nasri reacted angrily to a strong challenge from Sebastien Bassong and received a straight red card.
The second period saw the visitors soon grab their third of the day thanks to Aguero. Toure played a great pass over the Norwich defence, but Bassong failed to deal with it and the Argentine forward delightfully lofted it over Bunn and into the net.
It did not take long for Norwich to hit back, however, and they did so through a well-worked corner. After the kick was taken short, Snodgrass produced an excellent cross that Bassong headed back across goal and Martin put it into the top corner.
In keeping with the match, City soon restored the two-goal cushion. Another long ball was played over the Norwich defence and after bringing it down with his chest, Dzeko fired the ball on to the post, but it bounced back on to Bunn and crept over the line.
As the match went on, the scoring continued as Norwich grabbed a third with just over 15 minutes to go. Hart failed to collect a Norwich corner and after an ensuing melee, Martin knocked the ball in for his second goal of the match.
Both sides pressed in the final minutes as Aguero had two very good efforts saved by Bunn, but the champions managed to hold on for the three points.

Summary (Masterplots II: American Fiction Series, Revised Edition)
Fae Ng's novel Bone chronicles the fictional history of a family of Chinese immigrants living in San Francisco's Chinatown from the 1960's to the 1990's. The main characters are three sisters, American by birth and environment, struggling to make their ways to peace as persons, women, and Chinese Americans. The central event of the story is the death of the second daughter, Ona, who has recently killed herself by jumping from the thirteenth floor of a building while on drugs.
The novel itself is divided into fourteen chapters, all simply but beautifully written and all narrated by the older sister Leila, to whom the story belongs most. It is she who tells and retells, from different though not contradictory perspectives, the story of her family and of her sister's suicide. Most of the action is in the present, yet Leila's memory frequently wanders to past events that are recounted in detail.
The book begins at some point after the recent death of Ona. Leila has just returned from New York, where she has married Mason Louie, another Chinese American from San Francisco, without her parents' permission or foreknowledge. She is seeking Leon Leong, her stepfather, to inform him of the marriage; oddly, it is not her mother whom she wishes to tell.
Events of the family's history are not given in chronological order. Particular events are referred to in conversation or are recorded in the narrator's mind as she revisits those parts of the family's struggles in America that are important to her. Leila provides various interpretations and gives the perspectives of others in the family.
Leila's best and most meaningful relationship is with her stepfather, who somehow comes to represent America itself. Leila, who is employed by the local school system as a "community relations expert," does succeed in coming to terms with herself, her family, her Chinese ancestry, and her American identity.
As Leila reports her marriage to other family members, the events of their respective lives are told in turn. This organizational method provides the structure of the novel.
Leon's story is given first. He is a collector of junk, a...

Summary (Identities & Issues in Literature)
Fae Myenne Ng's Bone continues in a tradition of Asian American novels by women that mediate between the demands of addressing issues of gender and of ethnicity. As a woman writing from a strongly patriarchal cultural heritage, Ng has had to create new strategies in order to express the paradox of resistance to and affirmation of her cultural heritage.
Bone relates the story of the Leong family, which has recently suffered the death by suicide of the Middle Girl, Ona. Ona committed suicide by jumping from one of Chinatown's housing projects. She left no note, and although the police reported she was "on downers," or depressants, there was no apparent cause for the suicide. The novel is narrated by the First Girl, Leila Fu Louie, Ona's half-sister and the eldest daughter in the Leong family. Leila's attempts to come to terms with her sister's death, and thereby her own life, lead her to muse about incidents from their childhood and the everyday circumstances of the present. The novel unfolds in a series of stories that move from the present into the past.
The children of immigrants have often been called upon to translate for their parents. Their ability to switch from the language of their parents to the English of their birthplace makes them the bridge between the customs of the Old World and the expectations and demands of the New. This enormous responsibility can become an overwhelming burden. Although Leila...

Chuck Berry
Chuck Berry
Of all the early breakthrough rock & roll artists, none is more important to the development of the music than Chuck Berry. He is its greatest songwriter, the main shaper of its instrumental voice, one of its greatest guitarists, and one of its greatest performers. Quite simply, without him there would be no Beatles, Rolling Stones, Beach Boys, Bob Dylan, nor a myriad others. There would be no standard "Chuck Berry guitar intro," the instrument's clarion call to get the joint rockin' in any setting. The clippety-clop rhythms of rockabilly would not have been mainstreamed into the now standard 4/4 rock & roll beat. There would be no obsessive wordplay by modern-day tunesmiths; in fact, the whole history (and artistic level) of rock & roll songwriting would have been much poorer without him. Like Brian Wilson said, he wrote "all of the great songs and came up with all the rock & roll beats." Those who do not claim him as a seminal influence or profess a liking for his music and showmanship show their ignorance of rock's development as well as his place as the music's first great creator. Elvis may have fueled rock & roll's imagery, but Chuck Berry was its heartbeat and original mindset.

(Back to Commission meeting news)
For the second time in their veteran careers, two law enforcement officers with the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission (FWC) received recognition from the Florida Guides Association for their tireless conservation of marine resources.
On Thursday, during the second day of the three-day Commission meeting in Naples, the Florida Guides Association explained why its 500 members again honored officers Bill Holcomb and Louis Hinds with the FWC-FGA Partnership "Trained Eyes Coastwatchers" Officer of the Year award.
"Fishing guides often work with FWC officers in reporting and apprehending net-regulation and other fisheries-law violators. These two officers continue to work tirelessly with our members, often outside their normal assigned area and in all kinds of weather, to ensure that our marine fisheries resources remain vibrant," said Capt. Pat Kelly, FGA president.
The officers' supervisor in the FWC Tampa Field Office, Lt. Grant Burton, said the two continue to show exceptional initiative in planning and working special details to detect and apprehend people violating marine fisheries regulations aimed at protecting fish populations.
"Over the past year, the efforts of officers Holcomb and Hinds in enforcing Florida's constitutional net-limitation laws have resulted in 20 felony and 80 misdemeanor arrests. These two officers seized more than 22,000 square feet of illegal monofilament gill net and thousands of pounds of illegally caught fish," Burton said.
Holcomb was honored with the distinction from the FGA in 2009; Hines was a co-recipient of the award in 2008.
FWC Facts:Approximately 1.7 million acres of Florida's remaining natural areas have been invaded by nonindigenous plant species, which have degraded and diminished our ecosystem.

Health & Safety: The school offers a great infirmary for students as well as we have one of the best hospitals in the entire nation attached the the school: Shands.
Campus Housing: Although the dorms and other living places on campus are extremely old and outdated , the opportunities and relationships you get from living in them and participating on campus are more valuable the probably anything else on the entire campus. Living on campus truly makes the college experience.
Local Atmosphere: Gaiensville is a small town and you can tell my the minimal shopping places and lack of higher class night light . If the University werent here the town would probably blow away.
Athletics: There is a team and/or sport for everyone. Every sport you can think of, UF has at least two intramural teams and there is huge participation
Scholarships: I got all the finical aid I needed and expected PLUS the university even gave me extra scholarships I didn't even expect that helped pay for lots of extra cost I originally planned to pay out of pocket. It is like the school is paying me to go there!
Greek Life: You cant go anywhere in the entire city of Gainesville without seeing someone or some type of influence from Greek life . it is everywhere!!
Off-Campus Housing: I have lived off campus for almost 2 years and had many good and bad experiences. Anything deemed student housing is a bad idea. The cost , location, and safety all very from place to place. one block might be extra dangerous and two streets over is the safest place. it all depends
Weather: The local weather here in Gainesville is almost always sunny and warm, like most of Florida. When the weather changes to raining or cold the university does a great job of keeping water cleaned up in buildings to avoid injury, turning the heat on to accommodate the comfort of the students and facility in the rooms and buses as well as many of the university instructors give additional time before starting class to give students a chance to get to class on days when the weather is extra nasty.
Computers: The computers across campus all run on the most updated version of windows and are uploaded with all the possible Microsoft programs any student would need. As well as being connected to a multitude of printing centers, many of which are free, they are extremely fast. The only down side is that the windows 8 is probably the most confusing and non-user friendly operating system and can make things harder to navigate as well as make some computer lag . The compatibility is an issue as well with some of the already established publisher sites and the university sites as well.
Diversity: From what I have observed walking the campus, participating in events, and in class is the most diverse group of people I have ever encountered. Ever day I meet someone new from somewhere new with so many different views, beliefs and background. Throughout my classes I hear all types of opinions from kids from all over the world and of all walks of life. There is no visually dominant section of the diversity wheel and I think UF has done an amazing job bringing together a large sea of different people
Off-Campus Dining: I always find myself eating from somewhere new in Gainesville.
Nightlife: The nightlife is almost too good. I often find myself comprising schoolwork to go party.
Weather: I hate it. I hate it. I hate it. Gainesville will be 34 degrees in the morning, 78 degrees in the afternoon, then start pouring rain in the early evening. It's the PITS!
Computers: Although a few adjustments can be made, the technology at my school is good.
Athletics: I wouldn't trade the athletic program at my school.
Greek Life: The Greek life on our campus is terrible. It is ridiculous how some people in organizations treat non-Greeks.
Local Atmosphere: I hate the local atmosphere here, and I can't to graduate so I can leave.
Health & Safety: Safety and security on campus can defineitly be improved, but it could also be worse.
Transportation: Transportation is not a problem for any student living in the city of Gainesville.
Campus Strictness: Overall, the school is average when it comes to strictness.
Diversity: Diversity on campus is very slim, and in some cases, organizations are exclusive, leaving out some minority groups.
Off-Campus Dining: I wish they were closer.
Campus Housing: Pretty awesome for your first year to be close to campus, not really worry about cooking, and great chances to make new friends. Once you get it out of your system, MOVE OFF CAMPUS. You'll have your own privacy, kitchen, space, chance to have pets, and be more independent (:
Campus Strictness: Underage drinking not tolerated in local bars...good luck getting in with your fake! Parking/Traffic rules are severely enforced on campus so you have to watch when even on your bike. Dorm-life can be pretty stringent but also depends on your RA
Nightlife: Always something to do/ somewhere to go. Although I personally don't recommend attending the GatorGrowl show, Homecoming weekend is definitely one of the most fun of the year (:

Some schools have certain advantages over others. Small schools give a feeling of community; large schools have lots of resources; private schools are ripe for close academic relationships with faculty; and state schools offer a good value. Well, UF is not your typical state school, and Gainesville is certainly not your stereotypical small town. Because this place is so big, it has all of the libraries, dorms, athletics, courses, clubs, and services you could want at a good price. But if you put forth just a little effort, you'll find that the University also has more compassionate, down-to-earth professors, locals, and students that any small, private school could ever dream of having.
The best thing about going to a school like UF is that whatever you want to accomplish in life, it is probably obtainable through going to this school. You will never have to worry about not fitting in with anyone because the campus is a huge melting pot. Students are never bored on campus because there is literally always something to do with friends both on or off campus. And who wouldn't want to go to a school where the immense amount of school pride is literally unexplainable? It sure is great to be a Florida Gator.

Very cute!
By Pinup girl from Cleveland Ohio on 3/26/2011
Authentic Looking, Comfortable, Cute, Fits Well, Lots of Fun, Unique
Describe Yourself:
Adventurous, Classic
Was this a gift?:
Bottom Line:
Yes, I would recommend this to a friend
Comments about Sexy Army Girl Adult Womens Costume:
The costume is very cute and fits well! If you are curvy it's best to get a large because it seems to run small. The hat is really little but that is the only con, you just have to bobby pin it on. I am using for an Army pinup photo shoot!

Jeb Bush made 'large offer' for Marlins

08:11 AM ET 02.07 | Interested suitors keep swinging for the Marlins and missing, as owner Jeffrey Loria pitches a shutout of sorts. [Loria], in recent months, has rejected overtures from a half dozen people who expressed interest in buying the Marlins, including one of South Florida's most famous residents: Former Florida governor Jeb Bush. According to a source, Bush made a "large offer" to buy the team this offseason, but Loria told him he's not selling. ... [A] friend of Loria insists that barring a health problem or change of heart, he does not want to sell because he loves owning a team. Dallas Mavericks owner Mark Cuban, who has explored buying a baseball team, e-mailed that he hasn't inquired about the Marlins and doesn't plan to.
Total Comments (11851)
This is nice of him actually. Loria would rather run them into the ground himself. They already hate him down there. He doesn't want anyone to hate somebody new.
Total Comments (183)
Why would he sell now? As much as I'd love to see this guy end up in Biscayne Bay, he's making more money than ever. Of course Cuban, Bush et al want in.
I understand this is a stupid-boring post about nothing, but take this comments section to FoxNews.com ladies.
Make the lie big, make it simple, keep saying it, and eventually they will believe it.
Adolf Hitler
He must also love losing, being thought a complete fool, and being hated in his community. Hope that works out for him.
Why not, his brother made a lot of money buying a team with other peoples money, then using eminent domain to steal some land and have the public build him a new stadium then selling for a huge profit.
Da Bushwhacker and his Brother Neil!!!
loria's has been named the refusal owner in the big shots spot though,,,,
wiseup: so much for the history lesson. Loria either has to make an honest effort to rebuild Marlins or get out .Sell your team to highest bidder, take the money and run ,do not walk.
Remember to keep your posts clean. Profanity will get filtered, and offensive comments will be removed.

"Sunday sunrise after my brother's funeral."
Submitted by Georjan Ostapchenko Kudyba.
{ 2 comments… read them below or add one }
What a beautiful sunrise. And what a lovely sign after your brother`s funeral. Sunrises like this one, always remind me of the Resurrection of Jesus. It also reminds me of the second Pentecost, when (I think) the Holy Spirit will come like a Fire, inflaming all hearts with the love of God.

Dangermuffin Plays StageOne in Fairfield on March 9
Dangermuffin is a three-piece band from South Carolina that plays that down-home, old-timey Americana that's so popular these days, but blended with reggae, folk and even calypso. They've got beards, look scruffy and wield acoustic guitars. They're coming to StageOne Saturday on a tour that spans the East Coast from Massachusetts down to Florida. The band's latest album Olly Oxen Free is making a mark in the Roots Country charts produced by Roots Music Report and they hope to expand their audience on the festival circuit this summer.

Mac, I just got my wallets and I have to say that they look better in person. I love the detail that you put into them. By far and away, the best piece of fishing artwork I have bought yet.
Thank you John and Jason! I appreciate the opportunity to Create these works of art for you. Enjoy them and show them off!!! MAC
Mac, Here is a couple pics I took of one of the Wallets you made for me. The flies inside are ones I tied for James for his birthday. John
Here are the latest three. PT here is your Sauk River pig and Chris S. Here's your brown trout bro. MAC
Damn, nice work. Not sure if it'll sit on my tying bench or go out in the field with me. Might just take it with me a couple times to find out if it's "lucky".
Nice I'm excited to see it in person. Is there writting on the left side? or I'm i seeing stuff. Thanks alot though mac
Got mine today and it is perfect!! You did a really good job:thumb: Thanks for the flies as well they look great. I would recomend if you dont have one to get one they are better than anything i have seen. Omar
Mac: I've looked at every wallet tonight that you've posted in the past and I have to say that i'm beyond impressed... Your creativity with is pretty amazing with the hot tip!
Thanks M.A.C., pt just gave me the wallet you made and it will be with me when I'm buried. You even put in the lateral line!.. Amazing. Oh ya! Thanks pt

Seven decades after penicillin revolutionized the treatment of infections by killing bacteria, medicine is poised for another revolution.
The central idea: Many bacteria, rather than creating disease, actually protect against it. So, rather than indiscriminately killing all bacteria, a growing number of researchers say we should be taking an ecological approach — by supporting good bacteria, either in addition to, or instead of destroying the bad.
"Balance is the key," said Dr. Martin Floch, an assistant clinical professor of medicine at the Yale University School of Medicine. "The internal environment is an ecology."
Yogurt has long been known as a probiotic — fostering the growth of healthy bacteria in the immune system. But now doctors and researchers are looking at promoting bacteria more aggressively. One recent study suggests that adding bacteria to the sinuses might help fight an active infection, and other research has shown that fecal transplants — getting a suppository of a healthy person's poop — can be extremely effective at treating one kind of intestinal infections.
Early research has been so convincing that even mainstream institutions like Massachusetts General Hospital are experimenting with the techniques.
"There's a lot of interest in trying to understand how these bacterial products educate the immune system," said Dr. Ramnik Xavier, a senior associate member of the Broad Institute and chief of gastroenterology at Massachusetts General Hospital, which is seeking approval to begin a study on fecal transplants in patients with gastrointestinal diseases.
In recent generations, we've killed off many weaker strains of bacteria with antibiotics and antibacterial soaps and detergents, leaving the most dangerous strains — many of which have grown more resistent to treatment. And we've simultaneously stopped eating the probiotic foods of our ancestors, which provided our great-grandparents with a steady diet of healthy microbes to keep their intestinal flora in balance.
"Over time, this results in highly unstable communities that are perhaps more vulnerable to infection or chronic inflammation," said Susan Lynch, an associate professor of medicine in the division of gastroenterology at the University of California San Francisco.
This may explain the rise of chronic inflammatory diseases and autoimmune disorders including type 1 diabetes, asthma, and allergies. Even some cancers have been shown to be influenced by the microbiome, the community of microbes that live inside each person.
Lynch recently conducted a study showing that people with chronic sinus infections had less diversity in their bacterial communities than healthy people. Promoting bacterial diversity may therefore be a better way to fight disease than prescribing antibiotics that blast both the good and bad bacteria, she said.
After being given antibiotics, a typical person's bacterial community will bounce back to normal within a week, research has shown. If given antibiotics a second time, the community takes roughly two weeks to return to normal, and even longer after the third round.
"There are always organisms that never come back," Lynch said, adding that the resulting lack of diversity of bacteria might make people more vulnerable to infections and chronic illnesses.
Scientists aren't suggesting that antibiotics are bad — antibiotics are essential to fight dangerous bacterial illnesses. But taking antibiotics when not absolutely necessary could be dangerous.
Sarkis Mazmanian, a professor of biology at the California Institute of Technology, said the key is to learn to harness the benefits of the microbes that evolved along with us.
"If we knew what the bugs already know, we could cure diseases," said Mazmanian, who was awarded a MacArthur Foundation Fellowship earlier this month for his work. "They know how to flip the switches of our immune system, our metabolic systems, in a way that could be harnessed as therapy."
In his own life, Mazmanian said he follows the principle: "Do things we've done for millions of years, not the last 50-100 years."
Eating heavily processed foods and killing bacteria with dishwashing detergent could be harmful to your microbiome, Mazmanian said.
"At the end of the day, they may provide a convenience, but they are an unnatural shift in our association with the microbial world," he said. He does not use dishwashing detergent — instead running his dishwasher with water only — because research shows detergent doesn't clean any better than water, Mazmanian said, and leaves a chemical residue that may be dangerous.

North Carolina is bringing in a lot more income tax revenue, the state's Medicaid costs are growing significantly, and its unemployment rate will likely hang around 9 percent for the next two years. Those are just a few findings from the state's annual financial report released Tuesday.
North Carolina's bottom line is looking pretty good.

It was the custom of the Roman governors to erect their tribunals in open places, as the market-place, the circus, or even the highway. Pilate caused his seat of judgment to be set down in a place called "the Pavement" (John 19:13) i.e., a place paved with a mosaic of coloured stones. It was probably a place thus prepared in front of the "judgment hall." (See GABBATHA.)
