What is Elvis' fave gospel song? He had quite a few i think.
I did it my way.
i would hazard a guesss that its HOW GREAT THOU ART
FARTHER ALONG i think was one of vernons favs
and gladys loved PRECIOUS MEMORIES
I particularly love You`ll Never Walk Alone in my mind its one of the most beautiful songs ever.
How great Thou Art seems to be Elvis' favorite song. That is why he sang it in his shows. I also would say Why Me Lord? was another fav. that Elvis loved to hear
I would guess his choice was How Great Thou Art...He did sing it a lot...
It's my favourite gospel song!
Another one of Elvis' favorite gospel songs is Sweet Sweet Spirit, which is a great song featured on EOT.
"How do I get placed in situations like this? Ah hell, I guess it's all part of showbusiness "~ Elvis in his limo on his way to perform in Omaha, NE on June 19th 1977
"I, John" was another favorite of Elvis.
On the hills of Georgia
Across the plains of Tennessee
I've seen and I've done most everything
That a man can do or see
Just trying to think of some I have seen, heard or read about. I agree about "How Great Thou Art". I read that he really put his all into that song when he first recorded it, and most definately did until the end. You can see how it affects him when he sings it in EOT and EIC. Quite powerful.
I agree" I, John", and "Why Me Lord?" were two. Maybe " Blessed Jesus", "Farther Along" ,"I Shall Not be MOved","Help Me" and " Bosom of Abraham", "Lead Me , Guide Me", " Swing Down Sweet Chariot" and " Run ON".
Just some I remember reading or hearing about that he liked to sing offstage and at home. He sure did let the spirit move him when he sang these songs. You can hear it in his voice and see it on his face and in his movements. Some of the Stamps said that he would literally wear them out to all hours of the morning singing these songs. It would have been great to have been a fly on the wall during these jam sessions. Apparantley they wanted to film some of these sessions for the "68 comeback special" but the Colonel either wanted too much money for it or forbid it, can't remember which. It's a shame either way. Regardless, there is noone I would rather hear sing gospel than Elvis. I love gospel music and have alot of cds I listen to from other artists, but somehow I always end up with an Elvis one on. Can't help it, he sang them too darn good!
Got my family, my kids, my books and my music, I'm good, yeah, I'm good.....

My dad's property up north is full of trilliums and I was over at a friends on the weekend who paid $20 for hers. Does anyone know the rules about transplanting trilliums and the best time.
as long as you take enough of the surrounding soil with the corms or bulbs or whatever they are, and then put them into a spot where they are happy, that mimics the woodland setting they came from. My father used to do this with great success (before the ban, I hasten to add!). But there is really no need to take them from the wild any longer, since, as several people have pointed out, they are widely available in nurseries specializing in wild plants.
[QUOTE][i]Originally posted by Smoodgie [/i]
[B]....to transplant trilliums that are growing in the wild (at least in Ontario). And from what I understand, they're very fragile plants and aren't likely to survive if you do try to sneak them out of the forest ;)
My local nursery was selling them this spring for $7 per 4 inch pot.
bev lewis
some nurseries are now carrying trilliums in pots for replanting. I know Botonix near me has them.
Lucky you!
there is a good article here http://www.nwplants.com/plants/perennials/trillium/
that has lots of information on them. The usual way to propagate them is from seed, but you can also do it by playing aorund with the rhizomes. Personally, I would try seeding. The article also talks aobut more general "care-and-feeding", including fertilizing (if they are in a good woodland habitat, he says not needed, but you could use a good all-round fertilizer if you wanted I think -- also compost would be good to add in the spring).
The title of this post immediately caught my eye. I bought an older home a couple of years ago and started gardening for the first time. This will be my third summer. When I bought the house, I discovered one trillium (which bloomed) in the very back of my yard under a small evergreen (some kind of pine). Now, I've got 5 of them, but only one has bloomed. I pretty much leave them alone (except to water them), but would love to have many more. How can I help them along? I'm not looking to transplant them or anything. It's a bright spot in the garden -- I'd just like more! They are so beautiful!
Any advice? Thanks!
good luck I hope you have success as they are beautiful.
with them, Kelly. Just try and take as much soil as you can, and dig them into a nice big hole in the shade, and water them well once they are moved to help them establish their roots -- keep them moist without drowning them. Actually, any time after they are finished blooming should work - you just might want to watch the air temperature and, if it is really hot, leave them for a bit, if you can.
If you "google" you can find lots of horticultural sources for trilliums - all the different kinds. One is this one, that also has other Ontario wildflowers available: http://www.wildflowers.reach.net/
It is (or was) illegal to pick the flowers. This is because the plants die without the flowers left in place on the bulb/root. Also (they say) because of the fate of Ontario's previous provincial flower, trailing arbutus, which became endangered after being named the provincial flower and sought for gardens and bouquets!!
However, trilliums do transplant reasonably well, provided you take enough soil with the bulb and put them in a moist shady environment - city gardens are often too dry, especially in the southern part of Ontario. Years ago, my Dad very successfully established a bed of them in our yard in Ottawa under a couple of maple trees - the source was a woods behind our house that was up for residential development, so they would have been destroyed anyhow. But if I wanted them now, I would buy them from a reputable grower.
it is illigal to move plants from the woods in most provinces. I did try moving trilliums at our cottage from one place to another on the same piece of land in early spring and they died.
....to transplant trilliums that are growing in the wild (at least in Ontario). And from what I understand, they're very fragile plants and aren't likely to survive if you do try to sneak them out of the forest ;)
I'm bored at work -- I'll see if I can find any info for you on the Net....

Mass Transit Funding Supports State's Leading Industries
I was in Gettysburg with other members of the House Appropriations Committee where we received a firsthand look at Pennsylvania's leading industries – agriculture and tourism – and how they combine to have a significant impact on the state's economy. Pennsylvania Agriculture has an estimated annual economic impact of $ 457 billion. Tourism is a $39 billion industry that generates $3.8 billion in tax revenue and supports more than 450,000 jobs. In fact, for every dollar the Commonwealth spends on tourism promotion, it receives a $267 return on that investment. As a strong supporter of state funding for mass transit, I found it interesting that the need for mass transit also exists in more rural regions of the state.

The Pseudoscience of Chronic Lyme
By Cassandra Willyard | November 16, 2012 | 16 Comments
In 2009 science writer Laurie McClellen's husband, Pat, fell ill. The exhaustion came first. He grew too tired to exercise. Even the office left him fatigued. "He was so tired that he needed a two-hour nap every night after work," McClellan wrote in her account of the ordeal. Then came other symptoms. One night Pat forgot the name of their subway stop. He complained of cold feet, and began to stumble. His joints burned.
McClellan's doctor suggested Pat might have chronic Lyme disease. The test came back negative, but she prescribed a course of antibiotics anyway. Pat began to feel a little better. At a clinic specializing in Lyme disease, "Pat was given prescriptions for a sophisticated regimen of drugs to control his symptoms, plus multiple antibiotics to fight the infection. He would need to take the drugs for the next year or so. He started swallowing some twenty-five pills a day, and the pace of his recovery picked up," McClellan wrote.
While all infectious disease doctors acknowledge that Borrelia burgdorferi, the corkscrew-shaped bacterium that causes Lyme disease, can stay in the body for years, most believe that a short course of antibiotics is enough to wipe out the infection. However, an increasingly vocal group of patients, advocates, and doctors believes the bacteria can hide out in the body and persist even after treatment, causing a laundry list of vague symptoms — everything from night sweats and depression to back pain and vertigo. They argue that a cure requires not weeks but months or years of strong antibiotics, and that relapses are common. They portray Lyme as "a disease that is insidious, ubiquitous, difficult to diagnose, and almost incurable," according to one group of infectious disease physicians from Johns Hopkins.
The debate has been raging for years, but evidence has yet to emerge in support of an epidemic of persistent yet invisible B. bergdorferi infections. And three clinical trials funded by the National Institute for Allergy and Infectious Diseases failed to find any benefit of long-term antibiotic therapy in individuals like Pat who have no evidence of active infection. In fact, long courses of antibiotics can be dangerous.
A new study finds that people who have been treated for Lyme disease and then later appear to relapse are typically suffering from a new infection. In the 1990s, Robert Nadelman began collecting blood and skin samples from people with Lyme disease. He identified 17 people who developed a bullseye rash, a hallmark of Lyme disease, more than once. By examining the genetic makeup of the bacteria found in these rashes Nadelman showed that these later episodes were actually new infections, not relapses.
That's not to say that everyone who claims to have chronic Lyme has had multiple infections. In a review article published last year, Paul Lantos identified seven studies conducted in endemic areas that included nearly 2,000 patients with suspected Lyme disease. "Only 7–31% had active Lyme disease and 5–20% had previous Lyme disease," he writes. "Among the remainder, 50–88% had no evidence of ever having had Lyme disease. Most of these patients had either an alternative medical diagnosis or a functional somatic syndrome such as chronic fatigue syndrome or fibromyalgia."
Why would a science writer choose to accept a diagnosis based largely on pseudoscience? Because she's human, not Vulcan. As much as it pains me to say it, personal anecdotes are more powerful than scientific facts and figures. In the article, McClellan tells us about her friend's teenage daughter, who was deemed anxious by one neurologist, was later diagnosed with chronic lyme, given a prescription for a year's worth of antibiotics, and recovered. That's a powerful narrative.
What's more, certainty and action are always more attractive than uncertainty and inaction. McClellan writes, "Pat, who'd been climbing mountains a few years ago, now struggled to walk a city block. Two doctors were telling us that he had a certain disease, that it was treatable, and that he could recover. But the standard medical authorities were telling me that this condition didn't exist and that the proposed treatment was ineffective and harmful." Is it any wonder that McClellan chose the promise of antibiotics over the question marks offered by mainstream medicine?
The Hopkins group argues that Lyme advocates are part of the same antiscience movement that denies that HIV causes AIDS and accepts that vaccines cause autism. "These advocates have created a pseudoscientific and alternative selection of practitioners, research, and publications and have coordinated public protests, accused opponents of both corruption and conspiracy, and spurred legislative efforts to subvert evidence-based medicine and peer-reviewed science," writes the group from Hopkins. How can evidence-based medicine compete?

November 16th, 2012 @ 10:50 amWhich science is more pseudo? The "alternative medicine healers" or the Medical Industrial Complex? The evidence base of so called evidence based medicine is based on corruption. For many years now journals like JAMA, the center of the mainstream, have called into question the validity of a system where a majority of the clinical trials are funded by the manufacturers of the pharmaceutical in question. Negative studies are routinely left unpublished. The original study designs are tailored to give a positive result for the company supplying the cash. Billion dollar fines are levied against pharmaceutical companies for pushing non-approved indications for drugs. Children are diagnosed with new psychiatric disorders and placed on neurotoxic cocktails pushed by "thought leaders" payed by the companies selling the cocktails. Fads labelled as prevention are routinely debunked with time.
The harms done by alternative medicine are minuscule compared to the systematic perversion of science that we commonly refer to as evidence based medicine.
Vioxx, screening mammography, PSA screening, Foltex, Avandia, Actos, Gardasil, Prevnar 7 and 13
Billion dollar scams that are applied to the general population without informed consent.
Alternative medicine can only dream of that kind of market penetration.

November 16th, 2012 @ 11:31 amI have just one question: what if the red rash is a localized symptom that only appears at the site of a tick bite, and not in cases of relapse due to a lingering systemic infection? In that case the study sample would have inadvertently been limited to re-infection cases. I imagine the researchers addressed this – but how?
Cassandra Willyard
November 16th, 2012 @ 12:02 pmHeather, they were specifically looking at recurrence of the rash, so this study doesn't address your question of relapses that occur with no rash.
Jennie Dusheck
November 16th, 2012 @ 12:07 pmHeather, my understanding is that the red bullseye rash does not appear in every case of new infection.
In response to this thought provoking article, it seems to me that if someone is ill and the doctors feel it's not Lyme (and let's accept that for the sake of argument), then it's incumbent on the doctor to figure out what it IS and treat that. I can easily imagine the patient has something else that is susceptible to antibiotic treatment. The patient gets better and patient and doctor assume it was Lyme without ever knowing. Or another doctor assumes it was not Lyme and argues the patient should not have been treated at all. That doesn't seem like a very helpful approach to me.
I am not arguing for arbitrary or non evidence based treatments. But it does seem that a lot of chronic conditions are difficult for most doctors to diagnose. Perhaps they need better training and more time to think?
Cassandra Willyard
November 16th, 2012 @ 12:16 pmJennie – Totally agree. What IS clear is that these people are ill. And how frustrating to have your doctor dismiss your symptoms as unimportant or invented. But I don't think physicians should be giving years-long courses of antibiotics to people who exhibit vague symptoms and show no evidence of being infected by Borrelia burgdorferi or other bacteria. It's ineffective at best and medical malpractice at worst. What's especially heartbreaking are all the charlatans trying to capitalize on people who are sick and suffering. See http://ivlymeconsult.com/.

November 16th, 2012 @ 5:56 pmSad to see this. Public health message is to wear socks & boots, or look for tick marks when walking in country. Epidemiology is related to climate change & agricultural practices. Profit based medicine is not the same as rational medicine.
November 16th, 2012 @ 7:27 pmI contracted Lyme about four years ago and it's been a while since I've read up on the literature, but from what I do remember I think a couple of things are worth mentioning.
Based on my personal experience and those of friends that have also contracted Lyme disease, I do believe in the existence of some form of chronic Lyme. Whether this is due to the persistent existence of the bacteria in the human host or due to physiological changes that occurred because of its time spent in the body, I'm not sure. In my case, the short course of antibiotics alleviated the acute symptoms, but I've had various lingering systems that I am unable to attribute to an identifiable cause.
I'm not sure if this has changed much since I was reading up on Lyme, but the tests to detect the presence of B. burgdorferi were not considered very reliable. Some say that this bacterium is very skillful in hiding itself within the body.
If I had the choice to decide between the pseudoscience of a year's worth of antiobiotics and the pseudoscience of a year's worth of herbal supplements, I'm choosing the herbs…a commonly prescribed herbal cocktail for chronic Lyme is andrographis, cat's claw, and resveratrol.

November 17th, 2012 @ 12:42 pmTwo points. One of the things we are looking at with a could be/could be not Lyme diagnosis is the paradigm of modern medicine. We don't go to the doctors to be told: You're sick with something; we don't know what it is; we don't know how to cure it; just suffer. We are emotionally bound to a cause, effect, cure medical model. Unfortunately, not everything fits into that model and so sometimes we find ourselves thrust back into a magic as medicine past. We are given pretend cures for conditions we don't understand because…well, it's easier to believe in magic than simply to suffer in silence.
Secondly, if you want to be besieged by the power of Lyme anecdote start chatting with long-time residents of Martha's Vineyard about who they know who has Lyme and when they found out about it and what was done to treat it. It feels like the Year of the Plague, only people didn't realize the plague had happened until 10 or 20 years afterwards. -

Camp Other
November 17th, 2012 @ 2:11 pmI've been following the issue of chronic Lyme disease closely for a number of reasons, and anecdote aside, think that the situation surrounding the diagnosis and treatment of Lyme disease and other tickborne diseases is more complex than most of the media has led the public to believe.
I hear that Lantos – like Dr. Lawrence Zemel of the Infectious Disease Society of America – has more or less stated that half of those patients who claim they have chronic Lyme disease have no evidence of having prior or active Lyme disease. Lantos stated, "Only 7–31% had active Lyme disease and 5–20% had previous Lyme disease," he writes. "Among the remainder, 50–88% had no evidence of ever having had Lyme disease. Most of these patients had either an alternative medical diagnosis or a functional somatic syndrome such as chronic fatigue syndrome or fibromyalgia."
If this is in fact the case, then we are still looking at up to 51% of the patient population in this group as either having had Lyme disease or currently having it – meaning that up to little more than half of patients' persisting symptoms do correlate with evidence of having Lyme disease.
It is this population of which I am a part of, having had a textbook case of Lyme disease – known tickbite in endemic area, an EM rash, flu-like illness, severe joint pain and swollen lymph nodes – the whole nine yards – only to be followed by years of ongoing symptoms I did not have pre-infection.
So, when someone brings up the pseudoscience of "chronic Lyme disease", understand that I might get a little testy because it seems almost inevitably, the cases which are highlighted in skeptical discussions are those Lantos states do not have evidence of Lyme disease. Whether that is accurate or not, what about the rest of us? (Side note: chronic fatigue syndrome and fibromyalgia are problematic diagnoses in their own way, too, as they are of unknown etiology.)
I want to know as much as the next person exactly what has led to persisting symptoms. After doing the research on my condition to the extent I have, I'm coming to the conclusion that more research is necessary. I am skeptical about their being "sides" to this debate in the first place and also think science has not come to a full understanding the process behind why we have persisting symptoms.
Embers et al's recent study on persistence of Borrelia burgdorferi after antibiotic treatment in Rhesus macaques brings up the question of persistent infection after antibiotic treatment. More research is required on this, and persistence studies such as an NIH-NIAID xenodiagnosis study where patients with chronic Lyme disease are bitten by lab-raised ticks in order to see if they pick up the infection are underway. On the autoimmune angle for finding cause, Bockenstedt recently published a paper showing gfp concentration of Borrelial antigens in tendon tissue in mice, and the hypothesis is spirochetal antigens cause persisting symptoms long term. See this Research Blogging blog post for more info: http://spirochetesunwound.blogspot.com/2012/11/inflammatory-spirochete-debris-left.html
So one cannot avoid that persisting symptoms after initial infection and treatment or delayed treatment is an issue; the research is there and being conducted on it.
But in the meantime, people are suffering, and voting with their feet: The vast majority of patients in my situation think there is something to the persisting infection hypothesis, and treat with long term antibiotics. A number of them recover and report improvement in symptoms while on treatment.
Yes, it is anecdotal – true. And it doesn't support the outcomes of some of those small clinical trials which were conducted. But perhaps instead of dismissing them, someone could step in and collect the data on these patients (with their consent, of course) based on how they are currently being treated, what the patient base is and common factors of different subpopulations, and so on – and see if any commonalities float to the top? This could be informative, to study patients who have made the decision accept this treatment and see how they fare.
Heather Dewar
November 18th, 2012 @ 5:10 pmCassie, what am I missing? It seems to me the research protocol depends on the validity of an unproven, and counterintuitive assumption. A rash is a common response to many kinds of insect bites. We know it sometimes occurs after the initial tick bite in Lyme disease, but not always, and well before other symptoms appear. We do not know whether rashes occur if/when old infections are reactivated. So If you designed a study that only looks at cases with rashes, and you find all those cases are new infections, it seems to me all you've proved is that your study can't answer the question you are asking: whether reactivation of old infections occurs. You need to use a different symptom as your indicator – I'm not sure what, but just because no other symptom is as obvious as the rash, that doesn't mean it's a valid study design. What am I failing to see here?
Camp Other
November 18th, 2012 @ 9:39 pmHeather Dewar,
While I have not read the fulltext of the study yet, I agree that your logic path is one I traveled as well. An EM or "bull's eye" rash is a key part of the case definition for acute Lyme disease – however, it's not always present with infection, nor do all EM rashes signal the presence of infection.
Much of the media's write-up on this study has conflated the existence of reinfection with the nonexistence of a chronic condition connected with Lyme disease – but it has also left out a huge chunk of the story about the significance of EM rashes in Lyme disease infection.
Dr. Jorge Benach of Stonybrook University has stated that if multiple "satellite" rashes show up weeks to months after initial infection, that the bacteria has disseminated. This may mean the patient needs a different course of treatment at this stage, so new rashes in this situation are important to separate from new EMs from a new infection.
Dr. Benjamin Luft has been doing extensive mapping of the genetics of different strains of Borrelia burgdorferi and has discovered some strains create a rash but no infection, some create a rash and infection, and some create no rash and infection. These strains can have varying targets within the body; varying levels of virulence.
And not long ago, Horizon Press published a book, "Borrelia: Molecular Biology, Host Infection, and Pathogenesis", and it mentions big gaps in patient management around EM rashes: Some people who were screened to be subjects in studies were seropositive for Lyme but have never had ANY symptoms – whereas others went on to develop a case of late stage Lyme disease. (See pp. 501-502)
This is problematic for patients and doctors alike, who may have difficulty diagnosing the cause for the patients' symptoms with no prior history/evidence of Lyme disease.
(Serology might help – but you have to suspect Lyme disease first.)(As an aside, you might want to check out this discussion on Lymenet Europe: http://www.lymeneteurope.org/forum/viewtopic.php?f=6&t=3856 – if only because of the references offered.)
So, I am concerned about the emphasis on rashes and think either one has to suspect Lyme disease based on other symptoms and potential exposure to ticks – or we need better testing… Solid direct detection tests would be great, but we don't have one yet. I'm waiting to see what GMU does with its nanotrapping test development… It's antigen based; hopefully superior to existing serological tests. But again: First one must suspect Lyme, and if there is no EM rash present, where do you begin?
Cassandra Willyard
November 19th, 2012 @ 2:57 pmThanks for all the insightful comments. Heather, you raise some good questions, and I don't know the answers. I've contacted the author of the study and hope to hear back from him soon.
I also want to note that the CDC and other infectious disease authorities recognize that in some people lyme symptoms can linger after treatment. The debate is focused on whether those symptoms are due to persistent active infection or damage caused by the infection. It may seem like trivial debate, but it's not. Because if the answer is tissue damage or an autoimmune reaction, no amount of antibiotics can help. Even if this study turns out to be flawed or not all that applicable to the wider chronic lyme debate, there still isn't solid evidence for chronic infection being the source of lingering lyme symptoms.

On The Fly: Midday Wrap
Stocks on Wall Street were mixed at midday, with the Nasdaq leading and the Dow lagging. The averages have hovered in a narrow range around the flat-line, though consolidation is not necessarily surprising after yesterday�s powerful advance. The market has seen little volatility today despite the continued threat of an escalation of the situation in Ukraine. ECONOMIC EVENTS: In the U.S., ADP reported private payrolls rose 139K in February, which was below the expectation for 150K job additions. The ISM services index dropped to 51.6 in February, versus expectations for a more modest pullback to 53.5. The Federal Reserve is scheduled to release its latest "Beige Book" report on economic activity at 2:00 pm ET. In Europe, Eurostat's second estimate of fourth quarter growth in the region showed GDP rose by 0.3% in the eurozone countries and by 0.4% in the EU28, both of which were up from the prior quarter. Other data released overnight showed a surprise rebound in eurozone retail sales and an upward revision to the eurozone composite PMI. COMPANY NEWS: Energy major Exxon Mobil (XOM) slid 3% as the company hosted its annual analyst meeting and said it expects to invest $39.8B in 2014 but also forecast that its total production will be flat this year... Shares of PetSmart (PETM) fell 2% despite the company reporting better than expected fourth quarter earnings. Revenue for the pet goods and services retailer, however, fell short of expectations, as did the company's earnings outlook for its current quarter. On its earning call, PetSmart acknowledged that the start of its first quarter has been "challenged" due to weather, but also said it is seeing a "meaningful" difference in results between stores in weather-impacted markets and those where weather is less of a factor. MAJOR MOVERS: Among the notable gainers was Arrowhead Research (ARWR), which rose 25% after the company's shares were initiated with a Buy rating at Deutsche Bank and with an Outperform rating at RBC Capital. Also higher was Maxwell Technologies (MXWL), which was 22% higher after Piper Jaffray raised its price target on shares to $21 from $11. Among the noteworthy losers was drug maker XOMA (XOMA), which fell 26% after saying its does not intend to launch pivotal development for the broad erosive osteoarthritis of the hand, or EOA, indication for a drug based on the results of its Phase 2 trial program. Also lower were shares of restaurant operator and packaged foods maker Bob Evans (BOBE), which fell over 8% after the company's third quarter earnings missed estimates and it lowered its fiscal 2014 outlook. INDEXES: Near midday, the Dow was down 36.66, or 0.22%, to 16,359.22, the Nasdaq was up 5.76, or 0.13%, to 4,357.73, and the S&P 500 was little changed near 1,873.93.

Comments about Baudville Elite LED Flashlight - Thanks for All You Do!:
I gave these out during the holidays as part of a 'thank you' gift to my staff. They are made of good quality and work well. The size makes them ideal to stow in a glove-box or center console of a vehicle. The 'gift box' is white and is stamped with 'Made In China'. I took them out of the boxes and put them in gift bags before giving them as gifts.
Flashlights were a HUGE hit.

The crew really loved these flashlights. I surprised them and bought them personally as a thank you to all the members of my crew.

10 December 2003
The Foreign Secretary, Mr Jack Straw, your Excellencies, respected scholars, distinguished guests and friends, I am delighted that you have all joined us today for this very first joint MCB/FCO reception to mark the occasion of 'Id al-Fitr. May I at the very outset take this opportunity to thank everyone here and the director and staff at the Muslim Cultural Heritage Centre for hosting us in these truly splendid surrounds. As you all know, 'Id al-Fitr marks the end of the holy fasting month of Ramadan. Ramadan is a month of trial but also opportunity for the Muslim community. It is a time when Muslims throughout the world take stock of how they are performing in their duties towards God almighty and their fellow man. With the passing of each successive Ramadan the Muslim character ought to develop, mature and enhance, insha' Allah. So self-criticism is meant to be an essential part of the Muslim mind and behaviour.
The second Khalifa, Umar ibn al-Khattab urged every Muslim to judge themselves before they were judged by God. All of us, Muslim or non-Muslim can surely benefit by taking stock of where we are now. Yesterday, a delegation from the MCB met with the Home Secretary David Blunkett and the Home Office Minister, Fiona Mactaggart to convey the deep sense of unease and alarm in the British Muslim community over the recent series of arrests and the widely perceived misuse of the Anti-Terrorism legislation. As a result it is terrorising the whole law abiding community. We explained how high-handed police behaviour is threatening to damage years of constructive engagement between the government and the Muslim community. He reassurred us that he would not tolerate any use that was shown to be inappropriate and was willing to look at statistics provided by MCB that there was a worrying discrepancy between the number of arrests and the numbers eventually convicted.
Similarly, no one would know it more than yourself, Jack, what a great rebuilding challenge we face in the field of international relations, not just with the Muslim and Third world but also the European Union. Knowing you as we do, as a friend of the community, let me say that we do understand your agonies during the build on to war and post war. However, it is also time for the New Labour to do a serious soul searching and not to allow this great country to become an unwitting accomplice in someone else�s neo-conservative project for world domination. Even if Robin Cook could not do it then, it is time now to make our foreign policy truly fair and ethical. This is not an occasion to go into the details and arguments but we can all see how our assumptions and even our intelligence have been less than meticulous. However, whatever may or may not happen out there in Iraq or Palestine or Kashmir or Chechnya, the simple truth is that the battle for Britain is to be fought in these very great isles. The real battle that we face here today is not only about taxation, education, health services, crime and Islamophobia, but actually about the health of our own democracy.
The growing feeling of disenfranchisement and alienation by an increasing number of people. I think this is far more serious a threat to our political existence than the yet-to-be- found Weapons of Mass Destruction. Let me now conclude this short Eid conversation with wishing you, Jack, again and all our honourable guests, friends and colleague, a very happy greeting not only for this Eid but also the many Eids to come. Insha Allah.
Thank you once again for joining us here this evening.
God be with you all.

A former Southern Illinois University-Carbondale student was convicted on Tuesday of robbery after one day of trial.
Dionta Bratcher, 18, originally from Chicago, was enrolled as a student at SIU-C at the time of the robbery.
Bratcher was convicted by a Jackson County jury for aiding two others in the strong arm robbery of another SIU-C student.
The robbery happened in the parking lot of the Newman Center on Sept. 29, 2012.
According to the Jackson County State Attorney's Office, evidence at the trial showed that the victim was walking alone when he was punched and knocked to the ground.
The victim was able to get up and run away but Bratcher and another person chased after him.
After the victim was tripped by a third person, Deangelo Brown punched the victim and stole his wallet.
Brown was sentenced to the Ill. Department of Corrections.
Bratcher's bond was revoked and he was put in the custody of the Jackson County Sheriff pending a sentencing hearing on April 24, 2013.

FOODIE MARTA BLOGT: huisgemaakte Blueberry & Almond Granola
Homemade food is the best. That's a fact. It tastes better, it's free from preservatives and you know exactly what's in it! Granola is my favorite week-day breakfast next to oatmeal but there is just no granola in store that I really truly love. For that reason, I decided to take granola into my own hands – and made a homemade blueberry & almond one. With only 4 ingredients, it's so simple but oh so good!
250g organic oats
70ml maple syrup
80g dried blueberries (you can also use other dried fruit like cranberries or raisins)
80g chopped almonds
Preheat oven to 145°C. Mix oats and almonds in a bowl. Add maple syrup and toss until oats and almonds are well coated.
Line a baking tray with baking paper and spread the mixture evenly. Bake for 45 minutes, stirring every 15 minutes to make sure your granola bakes evenly. Take out of the oven and stir in the dried blueberries. Let cool completely and store in a glass jar or a food container. Enjoy with milk or yogurt!

The City Council scored a victory against the Bloomberg administration Tuesday, as a federal judge threw out a lawsuit brought by the administration challenging the city's living wage law.
The law, which was approved by the City Council last year, requires developers who receive large city subsidies to pay their employees $10 an hour plus benefits.
In response to the decision, the administration said it expects the lawsuit to head to state court instead.

Threadneedle macro managers Peter Allwright and Stuart Frost can look back on their first year of running a hedge fund with some satisfaction.
Launched in early October 2008, their $100 million Threadneedle Macro Trading Crescendo Fund has navigated its way through one of the stormiest years in history with aplomb - gaining 15.5% in its first 12 months to the end of September, on volatility of less than 4% and without a single down month so far.
In any 12-month period, that would be a creditable track record. But in a year of such extreme volatility its performance is all the more remarkable - testimony to the duo's skill in steering through the wild swings in sentiment that have...

i am driving my mondeo mk2 V6 Ghia X to Poland in two weeks time and am looking for winter tyres at the moment and need help as i do not have a clue about cars. Does anybody know if 205/55/R16 winter tyres will fit onto my current alloys which currently have 205/50/R16s fitted without any problems ?
yes they will fit without any problems. all it means is you have a bigger sidewall which will make your speedo slightly less accurate.
Posted 06 December 2009 - 11:19 PM
Posted 06 December 2009 - 11:29 PM
so there should be no dramas with suspension, transmission etc?
there wont be any issues with suspension or transmission, as i said before your speedo will read slightly less accurate. if your speed is 70mph your speedo will be reading 72.35mph so its not really a major issue.

Citizens in cities on Colorado's front range are pushing back against the fracking boom by passing ballot measures to either prohibit the practice or ban it temporarily.
The town of Longmont was the first in Colorado to ban fracking in 2012, when voters changed their city charter to prohibit it. Governor John Hickenlooper's administration then sued Longmont over their ban, claiming only the state has the authority to regulate drilling.
Despite the lawsuit, in 2013 even more Colorado cities passed anti-...
Another "Inhofian" moment for the head-in-sand Senator
Another "Inhofian" moment for the head-in-sand Senator
Honestly, how much money would it take to defeat Senator James Inhofe (R-OK) the next time he runs for Senate? Because I don't know about you, but I'm more than a little tired of Inhofe's messed up logic when it comes to the science of climate change.
In a radio program today, Inhofe declared his victory because, " the science is totally changed." As Inhofe explains it,
What Inhofe fails to grasp is that science is not a popularity contest where the person with the most friends wins. It's about researching and publishing your findings in the peer-reviewed scientific literature where it is held up for all to see, scrutinize and be challenged.
ThinkProgress has the full radio transcript here: Inhofe Declares Victory Over The U.N.-MoveOn-Soros Global Warming Conspiracy: I've Prevailed.
And by the way, I'm serious about raising the money to defeat Inhofe in his next Senate race.
This month we're giving away FREE copies Coming Clean: Breaking America's Addiction to Oil and Coal. Go here to find out more details about DeSmogBlog's monthly book give-away.

Where to I send a cheque? This guy is off in some fantasy world all his own. I can't imagine what's going to happen when the new science team for the administration gets their policies rolling. Picture Inhofe turning purple, foaming at the mouth, steam coming out his ears, being carried off to Bellevue in a straitjacket.

I want to move a toilet to the other side of a small second floor bathroom. It would sit next to a new shower with a new wall separating the two. The new 2 shower drain would connect into the new 3 toilet drain, which would then run across the room about 6 feet to the existing soil/vent stack. The photos below show several options for the design of the drains and vents.
I cant run any vents up the wall behind the toilet and shower because of various obstacles, but I can run vents up the new wall between them (it will be about 8 inches wide and 32 inches deep).
The floor joists run parallel to the wall behind the toilet (perpendicular to the new drain as it runs across the room to the existing stack). The challenge is to find a drain/vent configuration that mostly fits between adjoining joists so as to comply with the notching and drilling restrictions that apply to the joists. I can replace all the joists with a variety of I-joists and oversized lumber joists (2 x 12s), spaced at irregular intervals as needed, but a number of things limit where the new joists could be located, e.g., light canisters in the suspended ceiling in the room below and various obstructions along the top plates on which the joists rest. The joist span is only 9 feet, and especially with oversized joists I see no issue as to meeting code minimum (apart from notches and holes), but I want the floor to be as sturdy as possible to avoid deflection cracks in the tile.
Ive toyed around with several configurations shown in the photos, trying to come up with a design that would comply with code (IRC and Illinois Plumbing Code), function optimally, and allow an acceptable plan for locating and drilling the joists. The mock-ups show the basic designs, using pipe scraps that only approximate the actual lengths needed. Since the bathroom is on the second floor, I assume that no cleanouts are required.
Id like to minimize the bends in the toilet drain. The centerline of the separating wall would be offset about 8 inches towards the toilet from the line directly across from the stack. The drain connection at the stack is low enough to allow the proper pitch in the drain lines, but it leaves only about 4 inches between the pipe and the subfloor to play around with angled vent lines. The width and depth of the separating wall give me some additional leeway as to where the vents come up through the floor.
Photo A shows a vent arrangement that I think fully complies with the plumbing requirements (spot any errors?), but it is very problematic from a joist perspective. The toilet vent is 2 and the shower vent is 1.5, and their inverts are above the drain centerlines. The two vents would join near the ceiling.
Big question: Do I actually need a second vent for the toilet (the existing cast iron stack continues upwards as a vent)? The developed length of the toilet drain would be more than 6 feet. The IRC seems to say that no vent would be necessary in addition to what exists at the stack. The Illinois Code seems to say that I would need a vent within 6 feet of the toilet (Sections 890.1470 and 1490). The issue is very confusing.
The other photos show options that are more joist friendly by assuming either that no separate vent is needed for the toilet or that a 2 vent off the shower drain would satisfy what is needed for both fixtures.
Photo B is simply a 2 vent off the shower drain upstream of where it connects to the toilet drain. Photos C and D show options that might function like a wet vent (vertical at 45 degrees), the primary difference being whether the branch of the 2 inch wye is used for the vent or for the shower drain.
Any observations and advice would be greatly appreciated.

4th of July Recap: Photo Album of the Weekend!
July 6, 2010
Since today feels like five Mondays rolled into one (there's nothing like a four-day weekend but man does Tuesday hit hard), I thought we'd take it easy and talk about our weekends. Mine was just what the doctor ordered. 4th of July weekend usually winds up being a letdown for me because everyone expects you to have great plans and, well, we never do. Not the case this year. We went to the beach on eastern Long Island with some friends who have a house out there and we had an absolute blast. There wasn't much sitting down and there was certainly no book reading or staring quietly into space (unless you count the shooting star sightings we got every night!) but boy was it fun.
Nick and I took Friday off and spent three nights and four days in full-on vacation mode (vacation mode with two children with us 24/7—we all slept in the same room—so not quite vacation vacation). We swam in the ocean, cooked delicious, fresh foods, ate ice cream at the beach, caught lightening bugs, played kickball and, yes, drank lots of wine. When we pulled into our driveway yesterday, Alex and I headed straight to his bed where we both passed out for two hours. An awesome weekend, indeed. Here are some pictures. Enjoy! And tell me how you celebrated the 4th….
Packing four people for the beach is no easy feat--you should have seen the rest of the car!
The Ruddy family on our first beach outing of Summer 2010!
It was a little too bright for photos....
Alex saw the big kids jumping off the lifeguard stand so he had to do it. I was not a fan.
My beach girl
The ocean was a brisk 64 degrees--and rough--but Alex and I braved it.
He got freezing and we got out almost immediately. But I went back in and LOVED it. So rereshing. Like, take-your-breath-away refreshing!
Two of my oldest girfriends. We can pick up where we left off like no time has passed at all--love that!
Alex vs. the sprinkler. Guess who won?
Adult time after the kids went to bed...nice!
Happy 4th everyone!!!

Cordial Fine Wine and Beer uncorks at Union Market
Posted on: Sunday 3/3/2013 10:30am
Alex Beall, special to WTOP.com
WASHINGTON - Specialty wine and beer bottles from France, Argentina, South Africa and the East and West Coasts line the walls of Cordial Fine Wine and Beer's small store at Union Market.
Cordial opened its first location in January at
Union Market was an ideal match
for Cordial Fine Wine and Beer, says owner Eric Rohleder from Austin, TX.
"We're passionate about helping local producers, and small independent importers,
and small wineries and craft brewers," he says.
After founding the company two years ago, Rohleder met with the developers of
Union Market and decided to open his first store in the market.
"It was kind of like wine shop at first sight," he jokes.
The store features wines, beers and liquors from smaller producers and
distributors. Most wines are around $20, though none cost more than $60.
"Our specialty is really the unknown
stuff that you may not have seen before or heard of before," Rohleder says.
Cordial has a team of certified experts and distributors responsible for finding
the newest, more obscure products.
"Our passion is really finding some of
those hidden gems with winemakers, or brewers, or importers and being like, 'Oh my
God, you got to try this!'" Rohleder says.
Cordial is the first alcohol retail shop at the market, but also features wine and
beer tastings. For its grand opening last month, the store hosted a Super Bowl-
themed beer tasting.
Cordial is working to blend with the Union Market community. Rappahannock
Oyster Co. Bar, another vendor at the market, is partnering with Cordial to sell
its wines at the oyster bar.
JP Fetherston, the beverage manager at the oyster bar, describes the convenience
of selling a wine his customers could purchase a few steps away.
"It would be a really great idea if I could just direct them over there, and they
could buy their new favorite wine of the week," he explains. "It really fits into
the whole dynamic of you can get a little bit of everything inside the one market,
which is what a good market should be."
Though the system is still in the works, the two vendors currently serve two
of the same wines.
Rohleder plans to expand Cordial throughout D.C. and continue building
the business of exotic wines and other liquors at the market.
"We've had a lot of great feedback in terms of a lot of people just really
enjoying the fact that we're kind of carrying things on the wall that are off the
wall," he says.

Scarlett Johansson employs some fancy footwork to earn her freedom in new snippet from superhero flick
Scarlett Johansson appears to have gotten a real kick out of this clip from "The Avengers." Actually, make that a few real kicks.
The new snippet from the sure-to-be-epic superhero flick features Johansson as Black Widow, handcuffed to a chair while being interrogated by some baddies. Unfortunately for her villainous questioners, Black Widow is pretty quick on — and with — her feet.
Watch Johansson high-step it to freedom in the video below.

Terenas Menethil II
Terenas Menethil II | |
Title | King of Lordaeron |
Gender | Male |
Race(s) | Human |
Affiliation | Alliance of Lordaeron Kingdom of Lordaeron |
Occupation | King of Lordaeron and Leader of the Alliance of Lordaeron |
Location | Ruins of Lordaeron (memorial) The Frozen Throne, Icecrown Citadel (spirit) |
Status | Deceased |
Relative(s) | Lianne (wife), Calia (daughter), Arthas (son) |
Companion(s) | Courageous (steed) |
Terenas Menethil II was the last true king of Lordaeron and the primary founder of the original Alliance of Lordaeron. Ruling for over five decades, including the period of the Second and Third Wars, Terenas was considered one of the most powerful human monarchs in the three thousand years since the breaking of Arathor.[citation needed] His death at the hands of his own son deprived the Alliance of its leadership at a critical moment in history.
Contents |
Terenas Menethil II was born in the court of the kingdom of Lordaeron, one of the strongest human nations, as a member of the royal Menethil family, which had ruled the kingdom for generations. An old friend of Thoras Trollbane, Terenas grew up to become a wise and just ruler, greatly loved by his people. His long years of reign saw peace and brought prosperity for Lordaeron, but all this changed with the outset of the Second War.
Terenas' grandfather is said to have had successful negotiations with the elves of Quel'Thalas over the borders there for his northern vassals.[1]
The Second War
After the First War, refugees from the Kingdom of Azeroth arrived on the shores of Lordaeron, giving warnings of the orcs and the invasion that was to come. Terenas called delegates from neighboring nations, and, after hearing the horror stories from Anduin Lothar and his people, they agreed to forge the Alliance of Lordaeron. Terenas also asked the High elves of Quel'Thalas for help.
Terenas led the forces of Lordaeron in valiant battle against the onslaught of the Horde. The Second War was taxing upon the Alliance and all in it. Terenas even commanded the battle "The Fall of Lordaeron" where his kingdom was almost destroyed by the Horde. But in the end, their sacrifices were not in vain, and the Alliance won through, decimating the Horde and rounding up the surviving orcs into internment camps, headed by Aedelas Blackmoore. The orc Warchief Orgrim Doomhammer was kept as the personal prisoner of Terenas, but he eventually escaped captivity and fled into hiding.
Beyond the Dark Portal
Despite the end of the Second War, peace did not last long. He and others kings of Lordaeron was present at the meeting in Nethergarde. Later, he met with Thoras Trollbane, Muradin Bronzebeard and Lord Daval Prestor and discussed the matter with Alterac and Perenolde. When the troubles began, Terenas immediately decreed, in conjunction with Varian Wrynn who had assumed his rightful place on the throne of Azeroth, that their best people should travel to Draenor to retrieve the artifacts stolen by the Shadowmoon Clan.
Day of the Dragon
Some years later, the matter of what to do with the Kingdom of Alterac came up. Lord Prestor, who appeared to be a relative to the late Lord Perenolde, was one of Terenas' trusted advisors during this time, and Terenas began to arrange a marriage for Prestor to his young daughter Calia. Terenas even wished his own son was more like Prestor.[2] Prestor was endorsed by most Alliance nations as the new king of Alterac, solving everyone's—and particularly Terenas'—political nightmare. This plan was scrapped, however, when Prestor suddenly disappeared.
Arthas: Rise of the Lich King
During the winter when Invincible, Arthas' mount, died, Terenas and Uther were off on a diplomatic mission in Stromgarde. Terenas was later present during a ceremony in Stormwind, where Arthas became a paladin. He told him that he was proud of him which made Arthas confused as he was unsure whether he was proud just now. Years later, Aedelas Blackmoore had an audience with the king and prince as his "pet", Thrall, escaped.
The Reign of Chaos
Time wore on and Terenas grew more and more infirm, struggling just to hold together the collapsing Alliance despite all of his pleas with the dissident nations of Gilneas, Stromgarde, and Quel'Thalas. In the meantime, his son, Arthas, became the prized protégé of Uther the Lightbringer and a paladin of the Silver Hand.
The troubles began with the orcish uprisings through Arathi, as well as the Plague spreading from the North. Many of the Alliance representatives, especially the ones from Dalaran, were pleading for a quarantine. But Terenas refused, saying that the people of Lordaeron had suffered enough. The mysterious prophet unexpectedly materialized during a council of the Alliance, and pleaded with Terenas to make haste to Kalimdor or all would be lost. Terenas, however, paid no heed, thinking him little more than a madman. It was here that King Terenas sealed his fate.
Terenas heard of Arthas' strange behavior, especially his excursion to Northrend and destruction of Stratholme, and he immediately ordered the troops recalled. But still, no word was heard for some time.
Finally, Prince Arthas returned, victorious over the evil he had faced in Northrend. All of Lordaeron's Capital City rejoiced in festival, celebrating the long-awaited return of their heroic prince. But something was amiss.
As he knelt before his father, a dark voice flooded Arthas's thoughts. He rose up, drew his sword, and approached the throne. Taking his father by the throat, Arthas drove the dark runeblade Frostmourne through his heart. Thus did Terenas of the House of Menethil, King of Lordaeron, die at the hands of his own son—bringing an end to not only his reign, which had lasted for 50 years, but also to the Kingdom of Lordaeron itself.
Terenas' ashes were kept in a magical urn, guarded by Uther the Lightbringer himself. Arthas, desiring the urn for his own ends, slew the great paladin, and discarded his father's ashes.
A tomb dedicated to the king stands behind the throne room of Lordaeron:
Here lies King Terenas Menethil II -- Last True King of Lordaeron.
Great were his deeds -- long was his reign -- unthinkable was his death.
- "May the Father lie blameless for the deeds of the son.
- May the bloodied crown stay lost and forgotten."
The plate containing this inscription is missing from the tomb during the Battle for the Undercity.
Fall of the Lich King
The soul of Terenas Menethil II speaks to the Lich King warning him that the combined might of the Alliance, the Horde, the Argent Crusade and the Knights of the Ebon Blade have finally fought their way to Icecrown Citadel itself to defeat him once and for all.
Terenas's spirit appears in Icecrown Citadel during the battle against the Lich King. When players falls victim to the "Harvest Soul" spell, they are brought into Frostmourne itself, where they find Terenas struggling against the spirit warden of the sword. The player must aid Terenas in defeating it, at which point the blade becomes weakened enough for him to be able to return the player to the real fight. At 10%, the Lich King then kills the entire raid and prepares to raise them as his most powerful servants when Tirion Fordring, frozen for the entire fight, breaks free of his bonds and shatters Frostmourne with the Ashbringer. As the souls claimed by Frostmourne swirl around the Lich King, Terenas' spirit appears to resurrect the dead to finish off the immobilized master of the Scourge.
During the outro cinematic, Terenas remains at Arthas' side as he dies.
- Arthas lies supine, the shattered remnants of Frostmourne beside him. He stares as the ghost of Terenas Menethil materializes over him, and the characteristic blue glow dissipates from his eyes. As Terenas kneels next to him, Arthas places a hand on his father's chest.
- Arthas Menethil: Father! Is it... over?
- Terenas lays a comforting hand on Arthas' gauntlet.
- Terenas Menethil II: At long last. No king rules forever, my son.
- Arthas Menethil: I see... only darkness... before... me...
- Arthas' eyes roll back into his head and he dies, his hand falling to the ground. Terenas closes his son's eyes and gently lays him on the ground as Tirion walks in.
- Terenas Menethil II: Without its master's command, the restless Scourge will become an even greater threat to this world.
- Terenas stands, facing Tirion.
- Terenas Menethil II: Control must be maintained. There must be always a Lich King.
- Terenas' ghost disappears.
- "I will summon my neighboring kings. These events concern us all." - to Anduin Lothar, Tides of Darkness.
- "Noble countrymen, evil is upon us. Darkness has befallen our shores. Rise and slay thy enemies… strike, strike so others shall live. The meek shall not fade into the night… live my brethren, live." [3]
- "I will not institute quarantine without proof of your claims, Ambassador. The people of Lordaeron have suffered enough without becoming prisoners in their own lands." - Warcraft III: Reign of Chaos.
- "I don't know who you are or what you believe, but this is not the time for rambling prophets! Our lands are beset by conflict, but it shall be we who decide how best to protect our people, not you!, now begone!" - to Medivh, Warcraft III: Reign of Chaos.
- "What is this? What are you doing, my son?" - Terenas Menethil's last words before his death.
- "No king rules forever, my son." - the last words spoken to Arthas Menethil before his death.
Wrath of the Lich King trailer
Terenas Menethil II narrates the opening cinematic to World of Warcraft: Wrath of the Lich King, reminding Arthas of his duty as the heir to the throne of Lordaeron.[4]
- My son, the day you were born, the very forests of Lordaeron whispered the name Arthas.
- My child, I watched with pride as you grew into a weapon of righteousness.
- Remember, our line has always ruled with wisdom and strength. And I know you will show restraint when exercising your great power.
- But the truest victory, my son, is stirring the hearts of your people. I tell you this, for when my days have come to an end, you shall be King.
Fall of the Lich King trailer
The soul of Terenas Menethil II speaks to the Lich King in the trailer for patch 3.3: Fall of the Lich King. He warns the Lich King that the combined might of the Alliance, the Horde, the Argent Crusade and the Knights of the Ebon Blade have finally fought their way to Icecrown Citadel itself to defeat him once and for all.
- Spirit of Terenas Menethil: Can you feel it, my son, closing in all around you? The Light's justice has been awakened. The sins of the past have finally caught up to you. You will be called to account for all the atrocities you've committed, the unspeakable horrors you've let loose upon this world, and the dark, ancient powers you've enslaved. Though my soul was one of the first to be devoured by your evil, there are thousands more bound within this blade, and they cry out for release. Look now to your defenses, my son, for the champions of justice gather at your gates!
- The Lich King: Let them come. Frostmourne hungers.
This article or section includes speculation, observations or opinions possibly supported by lore or by Blizzard officials. It should not be taken as representing official lore.
It is unknown who constructed the memorial to Terenas. It's possible that some Forsaken, feeling some residual loyalty to Lordaeron, did it. It could also have been the members of the Silver Hand from when they retrieved Terenas' body. Another possibility is that the remaining Alliance forces in Lordaeron under Garithos erected the memorial during the short time that they controlled Capital City before Sylvanas took control.
It is also unclear what (if anything) the tomb actually contains, since Terenas was cremated and his ashes were scattered by the wind.
A statue of Terenas, recovered in the Wetlands, depicted him as "a young, long-haired paladin with hammer upraised."[5][6] When the Horde attacked the Capital City, Terenas reluctantly picked up a fallen sword with which to defend himself, but he was "painfully aware that he was no fighter".[7] He couldn't have trained as a paladin until after the Second War, and by then he was far from young. That statue may have been intended as a depiction of Arthas, or a heavily idealized version of Terenas.
- In Warcraft III: Reign of Chaos, Uther tells Arthas that Terenas ruled Lordaeron for seventy years. In Arthas: Rise of the Lich King, this was changed to fifty years.
- His quote "No king rules forever" echoes Yogg-Saron's "He will learn... no king rules forever; only death is eternal!"
- Terenas is the narrator of Wrath of the Lich King intro cinematic and is voiced by Earl Boen, who also voiced Terenas in his in-game appearances in Icecrown Citadel. Tony Jay who voiced Terenas in Warcraft III passed away a short time after finishing his work.[8]

WKU President Gary Ransdell: UPike Addition to Kentucky System Would Be Costly
The president of Kentucky's third largest university said adding Pikeville University to the state system would be financially cumbersome for the state, although House Speaker Greg Stumbo says he won't personally support new funding for higher education until UPike is admitted.
Western Kentucky University President Gary Ransdell said he doesn't expect much the General Assembly to spend much time discussing higher education in the 2013 session. And he says its unclear how much of this issue will linger into 2014, when legislators make a new biennial budget.
"I understand Speaker Stumbo's desire to raise the level of public higher education in the Pikeville region, but I also know the financial profile of higher education in Kentucky well enough to know that that would have to come at the expense of the other eight public universities and the KCTC system," Ransdell said.
" So, just from a financial standpoint, it would be a very difficult thing to do -- because it would be a very expensive thing to do."
Ransdell said he's concerns are wider than the fact that a ninth state university may mean another split in the state's higher education budget.
UPIKE has facilities needs on its campus that would be costly, too, Ransdell added.
"There's just so many dynamics to that move that could have serious long-term financial consequences," he said.
Still, Ransdell said Kentucky higher education officials will continue looking for ways to improve access in Eastern Kentucky without adding it to the state system.
