She was born on a farm north of Lafontaine on June 12, 1919, to John Glenn Duffey and Kate Parker Duffey. Her parents and brothers, Charles Parker Duffey and Dick Duffey, preceded her in death.
A child of the depression, she graduated from Lafontaine High School in 1937 and attended Ball State Teachers College, receiving a teaching credential in 1939. Bonnie shared her knowledge, curiosity, patience and humor with students at Lincolnville, Lafontaine, Kewanna and Rochester schools during her career as an elementary teacher.
Bonnie married Russell D. Walters, at Lafontaine, on April 19, 1941. As the wife of a World War II Army officer, they lived in Alabama, Arkansas, Virginia, Florida, Georgia and Texas before she returned to Lafontaine when Russell was sent to the European theater. After the war, they lived in Lafontaine, Fulton, Kewanna, and Richland Center before returning to Wabash County. Russell preceded her in death in 1988.
She is survived by her daughters, Patricia Ann Walters, Lafontaine, and Betty Joan and husband, Mark Martens, Rochester; son, Charles Robert and wife, Connie Beck Walters, Indianapolis, and American Field Service son, Noel Lim and wife, Cathy Painter Lim, West Caldwell, N.J. A daughter, Nancy Jean Walters Kumler, preceded her in death in 1995 as did son-in-law, Richard Kumler in 2012. Other survivors include grandson, Robert Kumler and wife, Kim, and granddaughter, Andrea Kumler Benbow and husband, Kip, all of Lafontaine. In addition, grandchildren, Lt. Adam Walters, wife, Sarah, and son, Russell D. of San Diego, Calif., Patrick Walters, Indianapolis, Katie Martens, Bloomington, Sadie Martens, Indianapolis, Brendan Lim, New York City, and Ligaya Lim, West Caldwell, N.J.
Bonnie was active in every community in which she lived. She loved to play Bridge and was able to continue this activity at Peabody Retirement Center. She recently received her 75-year membership pin from the Order of Eastern Star and had served as Worthy Matron of the Lafontaine Chapter. She had also been an active member and was past president of Eta Mu Chapter of Psi Iota Xi Sorority in Rochester as well as past president of Wabash County Retired Teachers Association. She has been a lifelong member of the United Methodist Church in the many communities in which she lived. She will be mourned by her family and friends, but remembered for a life well lived.

Elements - Unravelling the Secrets of Old Age
Although Perls and his peers around the world have been looking at centenarian DNA for decades, a much more focused project is now getting underway: the Archon Genomic X Prize (AGXP). This bold endeavour seeks to find a fast and cheap way to sequence a person's entire genetic code. Competitors will have to test their methods on the DNA of centenarians. And Perls has convinced Eberhardt to be one of the participants. In total, Perls needs the DNA of 100 people over age 105 to supply their DNA to this unique science competition, the prize for which is $10m.

Another great video by 3 Penny Films. While Coach Golden is right, there are no moral victories, Brandon Washington stood up and challenged the team before going back out in the second half. Also interesting in this video is that all the players interviewed are on offense (wonder why). tomorrow we play North Carolina while the Seminoles play just down the road at Duke. Here is to hoping that both teams win

CAROLINE CO., Md. - Maryland State Troopers are investigating a fatal two vehicle collision.
The incident occurred on Sunday at Shore Highway, east of Breeding Road. Authorities say an 18-year-old male, driving a 2004 Chevrolet Cavalier, was traveling westbound on Shore Highway when the vehicle crossed the double yellow line and struck a 2006 Saturn Mini Van, operated by 74-year-old Donald Arnold of Baltimore, head on. Both vehicles were completely destroyed and removed from the scene.
The teen was transported to PRMC for his injuries. Three other passengers in the vehicle were taken to Nanticoke Health Services in Delaware. A fourth was transported to PG County Trauma.
Arnold was pronounced dead at PRMC. The three other passengers in his vehicle were taken to PRMC for their injuries. Charges for the at fault driver are still pending.

Scholastic Kids Reporter Report from NY Premiere of Half-Blood PrinceHBP Film
Scholastic, US publishers of the Harry Potter novels by J.K. Rowling, have released their Kids Reporter article on the premiere of Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince in New York City. Written by 11 year old Daniella, there is a fun bit relating to news from director David Yates on bloopers of the recent clip of the Trio sitting in Ron's room at the Burrow.
"There's a scene right at the beginning of the movie where we get Daniel, Rupert and Emma sitting in the burrows talking about how old Dumbledore is," he said. " I can't tell you how many bloopers we got in that scene because they kept cracking up. I had to send them off the set for a while!"He promised it would show up in outtakes at some point—maybe the DVD.
New York magazine also has an article online recounting the young reporter's interview with superstar Daniel Radcliffe as follows:
But it was his completely adorable interaction with a terrified 11-year-old reporter from Scholastic News that won us over for good. Imagine half a dozen pushy TV reporters shoving their mikes in Radcliffe's face as he zeroes in on a little girl holding her microphone with both hands, voice shaking so much she can hardly form sentences.
Radcliffe (to other reporters): "One moment, one moment. I will come back to you. [Locks eyes with Scholastic News girl] Hello!"
Girl: "Hey. I'm Danielle from Scholastic News."
Radcliffe: "Hello, Danielle! Pleasure to meet you."
Danielle: "This is an HONOR to interview you."
Radcliffe: "Oh, thank you. You're very sweet. Thank you."
Danielle: "I've seen the first and second movies and read the first and second book and they are SO good. Especially the movies. I loved them, the movies!"
Radcliffe: "Thank you very much. You're very, very kind. They get even better than that, though, so when you get time or when your parents think you're old enough, you must watch the rest. They're very cool."
Danielle: "Um, and I have two questions. How are you most like Harry?"
Radcliffe: "I think in the way that we value our friends. Friendship is very important in both of our lives. I think I have Harry's natural curiosity as well. He's interested in a lot of things in this world, as am I."
Other reporter: "Daniel, how…"Radcliffe: "One moment, one moment."
Other reporter: "They told us to group together."Radcliffe: "It will happen. One second, sorry." [re-focuses on Danielle]
Danielle: "How did Harry change from the first movie to the second? I mean, the sixth?"
Radcliffe: "To the sixth? Well, he grew marginally taller. The films have gotten a lot darker since that first film, so I think he has had to get a lot tougher since then. Thank you very much."Danielle [holding breath, then nearly dropping mike]: "Oh. My. God. Oh. My. God. That was soooo cool!"

A crop of American cockroaches brings in serious cash.
It was a dreary, miserable Sunday in Toledo.
But folks still came downtown to learn some valuable lessons about the Maumee River and the importance of taking good care of it.
The best way to do that was getting an up-close view of the Maumee from the Sandpiper boat.
It was organized by the group 'Lake Erie Waterkeeper.'
Tour guide Sandy Bihn says the Maumee River is the Great Lakes largest watershed and what she calls the 'fishyest' river in the world, being the host to many species.
Ms. Bihn wants folks to understand and appreciate the value of the Maumee River to our area.
"It's better than it used to be. We don't have industrial waste going into it anymore. We have the issue with the algae and nutrients that are coming down the river into Lake Erie that we're worried about and the Asian carp coming in and having an impact," said Ms. Bihn.
Ms. Bihn is part of a movement to re-introduce the sturgeon to the Maumee River, a bottom feeding fish she says will keep the river clean.
She's also urging property owners to prevent runoff.
"If we keep it with rain gardens and rain barrels, slowing the water down before it gets to the river will help keep it clean."
The boat tour was part of the second annual Maumee Bay River Festival, featuring environmental groups and other activities.

The inspiration for Canadian actor Thomas Jones creating his prize-winning one-man show about Woody Guthrie, "Woody Sed," originated with a chance comment in an e-mail from a friend.
"My friend saw a PBS documentary on Woody Guthrie in 2006 and mentioned that it would be a great topic for a live show. I went straight to a used-book store, bought a copy of Guthrie's biography, 'Ramblin' Man,' and started reading," Jones said.

We're sick and tired of vandals
2:00pm Saturday 2nd February 2013 in News
AN area of Evesham is being targeted by vandals and thieves.
Hampton has been hit by a spate of car vandalism since last November and has also been the scene of burglaries being looked into as part of a larger investigation.
Evesham police are now asking for members of the public to lend a hand to catch the criminals.
Evesham police officer Phil Stayte said: "Hampton has been the site of a lot of criminal activity in the last few months.
"The first is car vandalism.
After extensive research there is no pattern between the incidents. We have tried overt and covert patrols. We are asking people to be on the guard.
"I think when this person is caught it will be somebody local who sees something suspicious and calls it into the police."
The majority of the attacks have seen an 'X' scratched into the paintwork of cars, but local people say headlights and windscreens have also been smashed. Temporary CCTV was installed in the area but when an incident took place the camera did not capture it. Wychavon District Council said this could be due to the weather or a temporary glitch but confirmed the camera was back in place and is checked twice a week.
Sally Taylor, of Pershore Road, Hampton, first alerted the Journal to the vandalism in November. She said: "The last one was two weeks ago.
People are sick and tired of it. We feel let down."
PC Stayte also warned residents living in the Hampton, Broadway, Drakes Broughton and Pershore areas of Worcestershire to be on the look-out for burglars.
The most recent two thefts being linked to Operation Watch happened in Wickhamford between January 3 and 4 and January 5 and 6.
"The burglaries are taking place in the early evening," said PC Stayte. "It is opportunist people breaking in. We have been issuing light timers to indicate someone is in the house."
Anyone with information should call non-emergency number 101.

Took the drive down today, after zigzagging from Heil and Graham to Brookhurst and PCH, down to the 55, I'm glad there was parking in the back, so I didn't have to use the ubiquitous parking meters. Walked in, lots of brewing equipment, fermenters, looked a lot like the HBBC if they flipped everything about 90 degrees. Ordered their 2 Double Stouts, very good stuff. Bartender was cool, there wasn't much traffic in the place, attentive, got me my beers, nothing special. Didn't have any food, but it seemed a bit on the pricey side, but this is Newport, so what do you expect. Really good beer, a step up from the Huntington Beach scene, IMO, I'd definitely go back if in the area, also only a stone's throw away from Hi-Times, literally 3 minutes with the green lights, so you're in the double bonus going down here.

If you can sit on the patio facing a tv on a game day this is a decent place. Beers get warm quick and i find the service is rather slow...
In my opinion there is nothing very exciting about the beer selection and limited menu at this place... Redeeming quality is that it is by the beach, affordable and casual

This enduring place hasn't been reviewed for a while, so I'll give my first impression. It really seems like the 1970s, only the TV screens have gotten bigger. In fact the tvs dominate the sights and sounds of this place. We tried three beers. They seem to try some more adventurous styles but sort of fumblingly. Ten taps with blonde, pale, IPA, and other usual styles well represented. More interesting was a tart cherry sourish stout and the 18th anniversary over-funked Belgian style.
I have to say that even expecting the usual mediocre greasy bar food, the food here was as bad as I've had in a brewpub. For $11 you get a plate of lasagna with grainy ricotta, meat ground to a paste, and everything seemingly boiled down. Mealy tomatoes on the salad, and greasy cheese on a limp slice of damp pizza-like stuff. The fish and chips had the weirdest smell of the dishwasher with a whiff of amonia. No seasoning whatsoever but the breading was unpleasantly bitter. I give points for service since the waitress offered to omit charges for the fish without being asked.
For some reason, there don't seem to be many interesting beer spots along the whole Huntington-Newport-Laguna coast. There are a couple of corporate places but not much between my favorites-- La Sirena in far south Laguna and Beachwood in Seal Beach.

Brewco is my local brewery... In fact it's only a short walk or bike ride away from me. I've been coming here since 1998 and have always loved the brew pub feel it gives off. Sure the service isn't always the best but I usually do have great service and the dudes who work there that love beer are really cool when you show interest in beer yourself. Remember that you are at the beach where people are a little more laid back... In other words don't be impatient and if you need something they are cool enough people to approach. I see some pretty negative reviews on here and I guarantee those are one offs and that another visit would turn the original impression around. The food is great and the brews are good too. There is always something new on tap that I like to try and I also have my standard Pelican Pale Ale while I'm visiting. The patio is fun and at night the whole place goes off and brings in a fun local crowd. For a little brew pub I think they do a great job at making some good beer and great food.

Gotta love the location of this place … 3 blocks from the beach.
Decent selection of beer … although some were a bit "interesting". I attewmpted to order three different beers … each time the waiter was like "let me bring you a sample first and then decide if you want a full pint" … went through three "tastes" before I actually found one suitable for my palette … LOL, no really into cucumber aftertaste.
Food is ok … nothing thrilling, but nothing offensive either. Prices are going to be a touch high since this is an Orange County beach town … but considering the area, very reasonable.
No special trip to this place is necessary … but if you're in the area, by all means grab some local brew!

Visited the brewpub on a recent trip to Newport Beach. Had a couple of pints and nachos.
Beer list was pretty decent for a small micro brewery. It included a few easy drinking beers (steam, amber, blonde, etc.) as well as an IPA, double IPA, barrel aged brown sour, nitro stout and a couple of others. Atmosphere was typical pub style. Service was well informed and friendly.
I had the IPA and the steam beer, which were both good. Would have gone back has we visited for more than just a day. Worth a visit if you are in Newport Beach.

Newport Beach Brewing is located on Newport Boulevard not too far from the PCH. There is street parking as well as a lot behind the building, and there are entrances on both sides.
The inside is very open with a lot of wood and the bar is on one side with brewing tanks right behind it (along with an inexplicably placed Cincinnati Bengals sign). We sat outside on the ground level patio, and there was an upstairs one too.
NBB's beer selection consists of 6 beers including a couple rotators/seasonals. The beers are also available in a sampler tray for $9. They included on my visit a Pils, APA, ESB, IIPA, Barley Wine and Barrel Aged Imperial Dunkelweizen. Half the beers were average and the other half were above average.
Service was decent on a late afternoon. The place was not overly busy to begin with, and our server didn't need to check on us often anyway as we only had the beer sampler.
We did not try any food on this visit.
All in all this brewpub was a nice stop a coastal-type trip we took that day. Hard to complain while having a decent brew on a patio near the ocean on a beautiful sunny day in CA.

2Stars Without Makeup: Snooki Again!
I'm sorry, I just love Snooki so much. I love how much she loves that precious baby, I love how happy she looks, and I love that she doesn't give a shit about not having a face full of makeup and a body covered in self tanner anymore. I think this is all just so wonderful, and I love it.
And isn't it just so much fun to see how different some people look without makeup? It is, right? Just think about what Snooki looked like when we first saw her. That huge hair, the deep orange tone of her skin. All that makeup. Did you ever think we would get to where we are today with this girl?
Probably just disregard all this if, for some reason, you still hate her. Instead of fawning over her, you can take this time to go grow a soul or something.

Winter is inching closer by the day, placing the city's current road construction projects under a crunch for completion.
City officials report construction on 13th street will proceed in to next year.
Plans are underway to make key areas such as intersections and driveways accessible during the winter.
Detours are also still in effect for the sixth street underpass as crews continue to work.
The city hopes to have the area open for traffic by the winter time, however, Minot City Traffic Engineer, Stephanie Frizzo,() says the continuation of construction projects depends on the winter weather.
(Stephanie Frizzo, City of Minot Traffic Engineer)"In this city, a lot of people are trying to push to complete projects whether they're city projects, state projects or private projects to wrap up before the winter months, so it's a critical time right now so the next couple of weeks will be a press to get a lot of work completed."
The city already has its eye on next year's construction season.
The 37th Avenue reconstruction project is in its design phase.
The project will reconstruct that street and transform it into a three-lane roadway with east and westbound lanes and a through-way left turn lane.
Reconstruction will start next Spring.
(Stephanie Frizzo, City of Minot Traffic Engineer)"Thirteenth street is under reconstruction right now tot he south. It'll go all the way down to 37th. So, there will be a nice new urbanized road section there. Basically, when you get to 37th, you shoot across and go to Broadway. So, it will be a lot better conditions to make those maneuvers."
The North Broadway project is also projected to start next year.

I seek the infinite wisdom of our Seattle friends on this blog:
My infinitely-patient fiancee agreed to come with me to see Thin Lizzy (my all-time favorite band) open for Judas Priest at the WaMu on the 29th. We're literally going to see the original drummer, Brian Downey, the 2nd original lead guitar (after Eric Bell quit, they changed from a 3-piece to a 4), Scott Gorham, and a bunch of mercenaries play 9 songs - then we're leaving. It's all a bit nuts, but seeing Lizzy is on my bucket list, and they're not getting any younger. Plus, I get to rock my Villa jersey with 77 LYNOTT on the back. Yeah, baby!
As much as I'd love to support a good Brummie boy and stick around for Judas Priest, it's just not happening, especially if we have to sit through BLS first. Instead, we're going out to dinner! I have my heart set on Olivar (Loire/Catalan fusion? Yes please!), but know very little about how to get there. We're staying at the W, and rather than drive, we'd rather cab or bus. Are cabs plentiful? The restaurant is by the Harvard Exit Theater (no clue)...is there anything to do up there, or are we better off going out elsewhere after dinner? I really appreciate any and all advice.

So what do you do when you eat in a restaurant and discover that you do not have the money to pay the bill?
If you are Cory Henderson, the answer is simple. You go out, steal the money and come back to pay the bill.
Cory Henderson, 21, grabbed a late-night meal at Browns Social House in North Vancouver, then skipped out on the $38 bill, according to the cops.
"When approached by staff for his actions he replied by telling them to call the police and that he would be at the Esso gas station next door," RCMP said in police press release.
Moments later, cops received an alarm that the gas station was being held up.
"The same male allegedly held a screwdriver to the employee's neck and robbed the gas station of an undisclosed amount of money.
The suspect then returned to Browns restaurant and paid the unpaid bill with the just-stolen money," cops said in the release.
Henderson now stands charged with robbery, fraudulently obtaining good, beverage and possession of a weapon for a dangerous purpose.
"Fortunately no one was injured in this most unusual robbery," said Cpl. Richard De Jong, "It is not every day a criminal will tell a victim what his next move will be and then go and just do it."

Sore right ankle to land Rajai on disabled list
Patterson gets start for Blue Jays; McCoy to take roster spot
SEATTLE -- Blue Jays center fielder Rajai Davis is set to go on the 15-day disabled list Tuesday with soreness in his right ankle.
Davis was attempting to play through the injury, but the club eventually decided an extended period of rest was required.
"We're just trying to get ahead of it as best we can," said Blue Jays manager John Farrell. "His game is centered around speed and we've got to make sure he has ample time to get it back to 100 percent."
Davis initially twisted his ankle during a rundown between first and second base on April 1st. He sat out the following two games but returned to play in the three-game series against Oakland.
The 30-year-old Davis played in a 14-inning game on Saturday night against the Angels, followed by an early afternoon game the next day. The added workload took its toll.
"To his credit, he tried to go on it as best he could," Farrell said. "We felt like we were making headway, but I know just the sheer volume of the 14-inning game flared it up a little bit -- quick turnaround, he's right back out there again.
"What's best for him [is] to make sure that we address this now and not that it lingers on for an extended period of time like it has for the past week."
Davis led the Blue Jays in home runs during Spring Training but had difficulty driving the ball after rolling his ankle. He was batting .156 with one extra-base hit in seven games this season.
Toronto will recall utilityman Mike McCoy to take Davis' spot on the 25-man active roster.
Recently activated Corey Patterson got the start in center field Monday night against Seattle, and he is expected to assume that role until Davis makes his return.
Patterson back from two-plus-week absence
SEATTLE -- Corey Patterson, who had been out since the final week of Spring Training after being hit in the head by a fastball from Boston's Daniel Bard, made his season debut for the Blue Jays in Monday's 8-7 loss to the Mariners and belted a two-run homer.
The veteran outfielder spent the past two-plus weeks in Florida working his way back from the head contusion. Patterson said he didn't have any trouble getting back into the batter's box following the scary incident.
"It was fine, I had no problems," said Patterson, who went 5-for-15 in his rehab. "Before my first game I played a simulated game too, so I probably got six, seven at-bats, and there wasn't any hesitation.
"It was fine, and if I felt any uncertainty I would let these guys know, but everything has been great."
Patterson's return came at just the right time for the Blue Jays, who are placing center fielder Rajai Davis on the 15-day disabled list Tuesday with a right ankle injury.
The 31-year-old Patterson originally expected to return to a reserve role, but on Monday night against Seattle, he found himself starting in center field and batting second.
"You hate to see people play and get opportunities because of that, but it happens in this game," Patterson said. "Rajai's going to work to get his ankle better and he'll be a great addition when he comes back. But we have a great group, and whoever John ([Farrell] puts in there I'm sure will get the job done."
Patterson hit to a .253 clip with 205 stolen bases and 522 runs scored during his 11-year career. He expects to bring a similar skill set to the one Davis would have provided at the top of Toronto's batting order.
"The name of my game is to score runs," Patterson said. "They talked about this team being more of a stolen-base threat this year, and we brought some guys to do that.
"That's what I'm looking to do, I don't consider myself a home-run hitter. So if I can just get on and help manufacture some runs, that's what I'm going to do."
Morrow set to make second rehab start
SEATTLE -- Brandon Morrow will make his second rehab start for Class A Dunedin on Tuesday.
Morrow is on the 15-day disabled list with inflammation in his right elbow. Blue Jays manager John Farrell said Morrow is expected to throw 60-65 pitches and likely will require one more outing before making his return to Toronto.
"I think it's prudent to take a building-block approach with him," said Farrell, who added the club wants to gradually increase Morrow's pitch count. "We want him back, but we want him back as we all know him and what he has shown throughout the course of last year."
Right-hander Frank Francisco is also rehabbing from injury with Dunedin. The 31-year-old has allowed six runs on four hits and three walks over 1 2/3 innings.
Francisco originally expected to require a total of three rehab appearances before making a return, but that no longer appears to be the case. He'll likely make at least three more outings as he continues to work on increasing the velocity on his pitches.
"The feeling is that he needs more reps, more innings on the mound," Farrell said. "He's not pitching consistently at that 92-94 mph range with a chance to go above that. He's at 89-90, and he'll touch 92-93, and that's why that repetition is needed."

I would give this 4 1/2 stars. "Jailbreak" is better (harder and more refined), but there is sone nice work on this album. Some songs seem raw – Roslie is better on "Live and Dangerous". "Spirit Slips Away" is a beautifully done slow song, and "Kings Vengance" has some pushing drums and guitar. The highlight of this album is the guitar duet(dual?) at the end of "Suicide". This studio version of the song is great; the guitars are graceful and smooth, sounds fantastic(some of their best work).
Metal Album Reviews[RSS]
Although 'Nightlife' was the official debut of the Gorham/Robertson classic lineup it was on September 1975's 'Fighting' that the true identity of Thin Lizzy was demonstrated. The twin guitar harmonies that became the band's trademark were in evidence here really for the first time and as a result the band had its first true masterpiece. While it did not achieve the level of success of later LPs, 'Fighting' belongs on the same pedestal as 'Jailbreak', 'Johnny the Fox' and 'Black Rose'. My favorite tracks are some of my alltime favorite Lizzy tunes including band friend Bob Seger's "Rosalie" (you best be smilin' when it's choosin' time!) and I don't give a damn whether its an original or not! "Suicide" is an awesome metal song about the suspicious circumstances of the death of Peter Brent (duelling lead breaks here which makes this a definitive Lizzy song). "Fighting My Way Back" and "Ballad of a Hard Man" could be seen as lyrical mission statements for the parent album. Sensitive balladry Lynott-style find their homes in "Freedom Song" and "Wild One" the latter being from the "Little Girl in Bloom" part of Philip's genius. "King's Vengeance" could be seen as another veiled attack at the pundits who thought Lizzy wouldn't make it! (as would "Fighting My Way Back!) Great storytelling, soulful and desperate vocals and those uncanny guitar harmonies make 'Fighting' a key addition to the Thin Lizzy catalogue and previewed the quality of rough, tough, ready and able rock n' roll that would carry Lizzy to the very end of their existence, as consistent as any catalogue in the history of rock music.
****This review is for the Remastered Import version with the alternate cover**** The music on this album is 5 stars, no argument. This review is mainly for Thin Lizzy fans debating on whether to purchase this "remastered" import…..DO IT! From the very first track, I was flat out blown away by the improvement in the sound compared to previous releases. I knew right away this was going to be a fantastic listen. Songs like "Suicide", "Wild One" & "King's Revenge" have finally received the tratment they deserve. If you still have this album on vinyl or are thinking about upgrading from your current cd version, add to cart now. You will not regret this purchase, I guarantee it. Lastly, look into zShops, you can get this album at a really, really fair price.
I have to agree with the one reviewer who refered to this album and band as being "criminally overlooked". Most people only know them from their main US hit "The Boys Are Back In Town", but Phil and the boys have put out so much great rock music, it does seem a crime to ignore the rest of their incredible catalog. Mr. Lynott's soulful vocals are absolutely some of the finest in rock history. By this time the dual guitar attack of Scott Gorham and Brian Robertson were in full swing, as were the on point drumming stylings of Brian Downey. While I love all the previous albums by this great band, this was the first where everything just clicked (although I do love Night Life). I'm no Seger fan, but the opener of his "Rosalie" is a great rock moment. After which comes some of Lizzy's finest compositions. Highlights include the heartfelt "Fighting My Way Back", the upbeat "King's Vengeance", and the incredible rocker "Ballad of a Hard Man". If you love classic, soulful hard rock, this album is a no-brainer: just do it.
Thin Lizzy is extremely easy to overlook and therefore dismiss. As recently as two months ago, I only knew Thin Lizzy for "Jailbreak" and "The Boys Are Back In Town". Even the band's name itself is the punchline of many a joke about 1970s rock. Too bad. Those who laugh are missing out on the music of one of rock and roll's very best.
For whatever reason, the voluminous musical output of Thin Lizzy is fast disappearing from the public eye. This would be a major mistake, one that I myself am finally rectifying after many years. While there are several more Lizzy albums for me to explore, let me share my knowledge of "Fighting" with you, the Amazon reader/consumer.
Released in 1975, about six months before the band achieved massive success, "Fighting" is simply a straight-up, no-holds-barred, get-in-the-car-and-crank-the-jams album. This is a CD with no weaknesses, just ten rock classics that sadly border on obscurity.
Right now my favorite song is "Suicide", with its blistering, Irish-jig style guitar solos from Scott Gorham and Brian Robertson. However, last week my favorite tune was the soulful, heartfelt "Wild One", featuring the impassioned vocals of one of the all-time greats in Philip Lynott. Next week it will probably be another song, maybe their driving version of Bob Seger's "Rosalie". This album is that good.
I read comparisons of present-day rock bands like the Hold Steady to Thin Lizzy, and quite frankly that is the most ludicrous comparison in rock. Thin Lizzy rocked and they had a serious attitude, one borne of hard years on the back roads of Ireland honing their craft. The lyrics here are not your average Led Zep foppish tales of gothic doom and mountains. They're very personal and hard-earned. The years of obscurity while watching lesser bands make bigger names for themselves had to have angered Lynott. Not only that, but some lyrics make clear that perhaps Lynott regarded himself as one of his biggest adversaries. Yet the music has a total energy, almost celebrating the strength he had gained from his trials. You're not going to find this kind of soul-searching on any Eagles song.
No doubt they looked with scorn on some of those "lighter" sounds that were gaining fame and fortune during the time. You can hear it in "Ballad of a Hard Man", which really IS the best song on the album. Here, Lynott isn't just telling you about his pain — he's showing you:
"I've been mixed up, cut up so sit down and shut up
'Cause I'm a hard man
I was hung up, strung out but I can't take no more junk
Even if you can"
Hard words, set over basic, pulsating, and unforgiving guitar riffs. Did Thin Lizzy blaze any new music trends with "Fighting"? No. But did they rock honestly and without pretense? Absolutely yes. Sure, they were trying to be rock stars, but on their own terms. Even if it meant keeping their fan base within a certain radius. If we're going to bring back some of rock's 70s music into the national consciousness, let's at least bring back the good stuff!

When patrons rent a motorcycle from Oklahoma Harley Rental, they mount a motorized steed not generally available to civilian riders. Boasting motors 7 cubic inches larger than those found on standard bikes, the agency's Electra Glides come factory-installed with 103-cubic-inch motors that typically power police interceptors. Assisted by six-speed transmissions and custom exhausts, the larger motors give travelers more bursts of speed than a coalition of cheetahs playing Red Light, Green Light. Oklahoma Harley Rental also issues Suzukis and 2012 Harley Road Kings, which carry a slimmer silhouette than the Electra Glide, but have a fat rear tire designed for longer trips. Though only licensed drivers can borrow bikes from the agency's lineup, the uninsured can get staffers' assistance in securing the necessary coverage.

Grade Policy
Student progress is evaluated through the mentoring process and by a system of faculty reviews that minimally includes a mid-residence review and a graduation review. Faculty judgments are documented by grades, review reports, a Critical Studies report on student progress in meeting the Critical Studies requirements, and by annual mentee progress reports and annual mentor's reports. All of these reports are available to students as part of their official record.
The following grading system is used: High Pass, passing with excellence; Pass, passing satisfactorily; Low Pass, passing; No Credit, work did not meet the criteria for credit; Incomplete, a temporary grade which becomes a "No Credit" if the work is not completed by the end of the following semester; Multiple, indication that a course extends over more than one semester and that the final grade will be recorded at course completion.
Note: CalArts does not use a Grade Point Average (GPA) as part of its marking system. However, for external purposes, when a GPA is required the following formula may be considered: HP = 4.00, P = 3.00, LP = 2.00, NC = 0.00.

the salty carmel mixture reminds me of a dessert we had at a restaurant at the Opryland resort in Nashville -- there is a great restaurant there, in case you find yourself there one day, called Old Hickory Steakhouse --- and they served a dessert of ice cream and popcorn, with caramel sauce -- it was HEAVENLY! Who would have thought that ice cream, popcorn and caramel go so well together.....same idea as your cupcakes I think -- the ice cream had bits of popcorn in it, but I just use vanilla, and it tastes just fine. Then top with popcorn, and liberally add caramel sauce, and finally, a sprinkling of salt...hmmmmmm....makes me want some for breakfast right now!

It's not the worst blog url in history! I thought it was rather entertaining when I came across it. The caramel looks delicious on that icing but sadly I despise coffee and everything related to it. I know. I'm weird. I take it the hot chocolate version of the salted caramel is still amazing though. Congrats on the three years!

You have to love the animal rights people and their screwed up logic.
I recently read online about a successful wolf hunter who received death threats.
People who don't care to hunt are one thing. Many don't have an opinion on hunting one way or the other. These folks choose to not hunt and I'm fine with that. But when animal rights zealots make death threats or cause property damamge, that's crossing the line.
More on hunting: Hunting headlines | 2012-2013 trophy shots | More hunting photos | Revisit chat with DNR deer expert | Registration station map | Hunting blogs
Why some of these people are so desperate to save animals like wolves or coyotes is beyond a reasonable, thinking person's logic. Have they ever watched videos or documentaries on how wolves and coyotes take down their prey? I have, and it's one of the more brutal things to witness in nature.
Some people call them beautiful animals. Or graceful. Or misunderstood.
Give me a break.
These folks assume hunters are nothing but bloodthirsty, beer drinking, rednecks. Allow me to shed some light on the differences.
Predators like wolves and coyotes don't exactly follow seasons or bag limits like people do. They are killing machines. They often run down their prey and then gang up on them until the animal is dead, biting and torturing a deer, elk or other animal in the process. Hunters, more often than not, put one shot in an unsuspecting animal and the animal dies either right on the spot, or within seconds, with little suffering. Humans only have a few months out of the year to fill a tag. Hunters are typically allowed two or three tags, with the most (with some luck) filling one. Wolves alone are responsible for killing 18-20 deer a year each, according to one wildlife biologist I've spoken to. That's just wolves, and doesn't account for coyote, fox or bear deer kills. Often fawns are the prey and sometimes the prey is a family's pet.
Predators don't help the deer herd, nor do the anti-hunters. Animal rights groups contribute nothing to wildlife, except protests, harrassment, and even death threats like I mentioned.
Sportsmen, on the other hand, should be thanked for what we do. We contribute money, we work on habitat management and volunteer thousands of hours in recruiting youth and others to begin hunting.
The bottom line is that the anti-hunters need to shut up. Let the true stewards of wildlife do what we do best and that's taking care of all the animals up to and including wolf harvest for the ultimate biodiversity.
Drop the death threats and all the other extreme views.

City officials in La Vergne have released the identify of a person killed in a trailer fire on Monday.
Melinda Edwards, 46, died at a property in the 300 block of Old Nashville Highway around 6:30 a.m.
No information is available about the specific cause of her death, according to a news release.
"It's just awful," said neighbor LaDonna Seals.
Seals said she didn't know anyone even lived in the trailer that caught fire and killed Edwards.
"I just saw the smoke and them trying to get in and everything like that," Seals said.
La Vergne first responders tried desperately to reach the woman, but were unsuccessful.
"Our first officer reported on the scene it was a very heavy fire," said Kathy Tyson, spokeswoman for the city of La Vergne.
The trailer sits behind another home on the property next to Seals' property. A man who lives in that other home realized the trailer was on fire and suffered injuries in the smoke and flames when he tried to go inside for his mother.
The state fire marshal is now investigating the cause of the fire.

If you need to take the road skills test to obtain your Tennessee driver's license, get in line. In some locations, the wait for an opening is several months long.
The state allows applicants to schedule their driver's test up to 90 days in advance, but in places like Davidson and Williamson counties, a massive backlog means there are no openings left before the new year.
Segio Valle moved to the Volunteer State from Florida and needs a driver's license for obvious reasons but he couldn't get an appointment.
"I wait for two months to take the test," he said. "It's very important, because I go to work, I go to college for my daughter."
Valle passed his test Thursday, but many other driver's license hopefuls are still waiting for their chance.
The state says its goal is a 30-day wait, not 90 days.
Applicants can go out-of-county to take the test, and there are still a few openings before the end of the year. The soonest opening, though, is Nov. 16 in Marion County.

Poets & Writers just published their rankings of both traditional and low-residency MFA programs for creative writing. I confess, I took a peek. The idea that I somehow need an MFA nags at me ever so often, although to date I haven't quite mustered any full-board justification or enthusiasm for starting to file my applications. But as I scanned the rankings, something unexpected caught my eye.
It was an eight point – disclaimer, if you will – posted in the rankings' Guide to the Methodology. (Scroll down in the guide to find this section.) It's worth reading all eight points, but in the interest of brevity I'll repost only the first one:
(1) MFA programs are not for everyone, and many poets and writers will find their energies better spent elsewhere as they attempt to explore and augment their existing talents;
I'm glad to see P&W acknowledging this truth and making the other recommendations they do, including #5, don't go into debt for an MFA.
P&W's comment offers a great segue for me to talk about The Writer's Loft Program at Middle Tennessee State University. The Writer's Loft is a low-residency certificate program in creative writing that is built around two main components: orientation/workshop weekends and one-on-one mentoring. (Full disclosure: I am a new mentor in this program, although I've been a fan a long time. I am not one of the "wonderful mentors" mentioned below.)

Leaked document shows odds stacked against St Helier Hospital in battle to retain A&E and maternity
Updated 1:22pm Wednesday 13th February 2013 in News Exclusive By Sophia Sleigh, Chief Reporter
A leaked document has revealed the odds are stacked against St Helier Hospital retaining its accident and emergency (A&E) and maternity departments.
The document, seen by the Sutton Guardian, shows a draft of ten "options" an expert panel from the Better Services Better Value (BSBV) review will score as part of the reconfiguration of health services in SW London.
According to the options the only way St Helier can retain its A&E department is if Croydon University Hospital – which is at the heart of London's largest borough – loses its A&E.
It looks like it will be a straight shoot out between Epsom and St Helier as to which could become the most downgraded site which BSBV are calling a "local hospital" – which could include GP services and practices, treatment for simple fractures, chest infections and burns.
All the options recommend that both St George's and Kingston should retain their A&E and maternity facilities.
Last year BSBV, which is being carried out for a second time, published data the scoring panel of 60 people were considering and made public announcements of their recommendations.
However, this time they will not publish the data, being scored by a panel of eight people, and will not make an announcement of their recommendations until it has all been considered by the programme board along with a financial appraisal next Wednesday.
The Epsom and St Helier University Hospitals NHS Trust has asked BSBV not to make a public announcement until they have had a chance to speak to their staff on the Thursday morning (February 21).
Campaigners have vowed to continue their fight against any recommendations to downgrade St Helier Hospital.
The MP for Sutton and Cheam Paul Burstow, who has been calling for an end to the review, is bracing himself for bad news.
He said: "It is a bad process leading to bad options – in the end offering the problem a false choice.
"It has committed so many errors and assumptions on which they base their decisions on.
"In the real world this is just not a practical set of solutions. In effect they are playing one hospital against another and one community against another.
"I think they had a pre-determined outcome in mind and they have worked towards developing that outcome.
"That pre-determined outcome – downgrading St Helier and disposing of Epsom when it came on the scene."
Mary Burstow the chair of the health and well being scrutiny committee has warned that if St Helier becomes the "local hospital" there is no chance the Department of Health will approve the £219m earmarked for the rebuild of St Helier.
Sutton's two MPs are planning on visiting St Helier Hospital to speak to staff following the announcement.
Tom Brake the MP for Carshalton and Wallington is urging people to attend a public meeting to challenge those behind the review.
The meeting will take place at 7pm on Thursday, February 21, at the Carshalton Boys Sports College, Winchcombe Road.

The UK is already overpopulated, but in 2014 Bulgaria and Romania get free access to the UK.
The politicians think we can do with less A&E units than before the UK became overpopulated - but overpopulation is going to get worse?
Maybe we should be going to nursery school and getting some three-year old kids that just learned maths to run the country?

People are rightly annoyed because the 'consultations' appear to be a sham, and the outcome a fait accompli.
Yes, people are fearful that they or their loved ones might pop their clogs because their ambulance takes an extra 40 minutes to get to Kingston or Tooting in the rush hour.
Women in labour don't want their babies born in an ambulance.
And the staff at the hospitals which will take the strain are very concerned at how they will cope with the extra burdens when they are already full to capacity.
It's so much more than a moral dilemma.
And I still believe that the 'ringfenced' promised £219m for St Helier will never materialise.

Also these times in the back of an ambulance depens on where they pick you up. To claim a slippery slope is one thing but all I hear is local protectionism

If it is a fait accompli then why are we spending so much money announcing it? Free at the point of care is the mantra but it is emergency care, the health care resulting from and the care given to keep people alive beyond what they would should expect ( not what they would want as that should be private health care responsibility) that costs so much.
