Hard as he tries, Richard Mourdock can't make the controversy go away. His remarks about rape and abortion in last week's debate prompted two unusual attacks on Thursday. The first comes from Hustler magazine Publisher Larry Flynt who posed a million dollar challenge to Mourdock in a newspaper ad. The other is a first of its kind talking mail piece.
The negative mailer from a Democratic political action committee includes a recording of Richard Mourdock's voice that begins, "Even when life begins in that horrible situation of rape…" It's the debate comment that started the firestorm that also prompted the newspaper ad from Hustler magazine publisher Larry Flynt. In it, he offers a million dollars to Mourdock if he can prove that his comments were authorized by God, clearly a facetious attempt to play up the controversy.
Campaigning in northern Indiana Mourdock says voters aren't paying attention to the controversy. "They're not talking to me about it," he said. "I came in this room and several other rooms this morning and the issue hasn't come up other than from the press."
Joe Donnelly, meantime, continues to fan the flames. "Mr. Mourdock's comments were hurtful to women, to rape survivors and to families," said Donnelly. "I thought after further reflection he might take those words back but he has not."
He's getting help from Ira Shapiro, a Democratic author who wrote the book "The Last Great Senate." Shapiro is giving a lecture at the Jewish Community Center and says this race is being watched around the country. "And this race deserves particular attention," he says, "because it involves one of the most extreme candidates out there in Mr. Mourdock."
The Mourdock campaign, meantime, calls the Flynt ad "sleazy" and says Joe Donnelly needs to call for a halt to the new campaign tactics. The official response from the Donnelly campaign regarding those campaign tactics is "no comment."
But the reality is that Joe Donnelly is getting lots of help at the moment and Richard Mourdock is still having trouble changing the subject.

Gene Simmons, Paul Stanley, Eric Singer and Tommy Thayer won't be the only ones in Cadott Saturday night with painted faces and crazy outfits. Simmons and Stanley formed KISS in 1973 and hit it big within the next two years with their rock anthem, "Rock and Roll All Nite." The band is well known for its theatrical shows that has included fire-breathing and other outlandish acts. "I think they'll be quite a few others — a lot of lookalikes," predicts Jim Buetow. Buetow, marketing director for the group that puts on Rock Fest each July, is referring to the KISS Army that tends to follow the veteran rock band everywhere - "They will be doing their full makeup thing," Buetow said. KISS is the 11 p.m. headliner Saturday, following Chicago and Collective Soul.

Once just wasn't enough for Tammy Gilmore.
Just a year ago, Gilmore and then-3-year-old Alexander appeared in an Iowa courtroom, where Judge Richard Blane finalized Gilmore's adoption of Alexander.
On National Adoption Day 2012, Gilmore, a single mother, was back in court to adopt Alexander's little brother, one-and-a-half-year-old Max.
"I feel so blessed," Gilmore said. "I would be beating myself up right now if I hadn't made this decision. It is the best decision I could have made."
Gilbertville native Michelle Saveraid is an attorney with the Youth Law Center in Des Moines, and works closely with many adoptive families.
"Being in a loving, nurturing, forever home makes a difference," Saveraid said. "And, today, we get to celebrate that, and that's what the whole day is about. It's a thrill to be a part of that -- it always is. To come back and be able to see kids after they've been adopted, and see that they continue to grow and be loved and nurtured -- it's just amazing."
"It has its challenges," Gilmore said. "Parenting is a gift we're given, but it's also -- you have to rise to the everyday challenges that it beings to you. You cannot take parenting for granted. It is so very important."
Many Iowa families work with Iowa KidsNet, a statewide collaboration of agencies which utilizes a unique, cohesive approach to provide recruitment, training, licensing and continued support to individuals who wish to become foster and adoptive parents.
IowaKidsNet is a partnership of Iowa social service agencies, including Four Oaks, Children's Square USA, Family Resources, LSI, Quakerdale and affiliate Youth and Shelter Services. For more information, call 1-800-243-0756.
November is also National Adoption Month.
"Every child deserves to have a permanent connection to a caring and supportive adult," said Kelli Malone, Iowa KidsNet project director.
"Each year about 26,000 youth turn 18 and age out of foster care without having permanent family connections," Malone added. "This November, we urge more Iowans to consider becoming foster or adoptive parents, especially for older youth, or find ways to raise awareness in their own communities about the needs of Iowa children in foster care."
According to the Iowa Department of Human Services, as of August 2012, there were about 765 children in Iowa who were legally eligible for adoption, meaning parental rights had been terminated.
Many of these children already have an adoptive home identified with a relative or a foster family, while others are still waiting for an adoptive home.
As of March 31, there were approximately 6,100 Iowa children in foster care, which includes placements in non-relative foster homes, relative foster care, group homes, institutional care, supervised independent living or on trial home visits.
More foster and adoptive parents who can care for teenagers, sibling groups and children with special needs are urgently needed, said Malone. There is also a large need for more African American and Latino foster and adoptive families.
In all Iowa counties, including Black Hawk County, Iowa KidsNet offers free post-adoption support services for families who have adopted a child through the Iowa Department of Human Services.
Of the 104,000 children in the U.S. waiting to be adopted from foster care, some will wait five years or more to be adopted -- a lifetime to a child.
To learn more about foster care, Iowa's "Waiting Children" and adoption, contact Iowa KidsNet at 1-800-243-0756, or online at www.iowakidsnet.com.

Top Story: Calgary is having a firesale which will probably overshadow the game this evening and hopefully result in hilarity in Toronto at some point. Edmonton is on a roll, but shooting 80% in the first 15 minutes of each game probably isn't going to continue for long. The same underlying issues are still there, but they're being covered by the greatness of Taylor Hall. Edmonton needs defensive help and a legitimate centre if they want to challenge St. Louis for 8th.
The Oilers are saying:
"When your body doesn't hurt as much, it makes it more fun."
--Nikolai Khabibulin, on his body.
The Opponent is saying:
"To be quite honest, you tell me if the place was rocking before the game today. It was pretty dead out there"
--Matt Stajan, the Saddledome.
Calgary could play in old Chicago Stadium, but as long as they're getting the worst goaltending in the league, it won't matter.
Key matchup: Taylor Hall getting early goals so that the Oilers don't have to play a 50/50 game for three periods.

A reoccurring racist nightmare
by Dellano Cleveland
But understand we all are very saddened by the tragic loss of Brotha Oscar Grant, and after sadness comes retribution. This Amerikkka has taught us this action must be resolved in order to move forward.
To the family of Brotha Grant our great respect and condolences are extended. But, Brothas and Sistas, this is all about all of the people who have been assassinated by the system. To our ancestors on slave ships to the Rev. Martin Luther King Jr. to Brotha Malcolm X to Brotha Emmit Till to Brotha Diallo, shot 41 times reaching for his wallet in New York, to Brotha Sean Bell to the li'l ol' grandmother in Georgia, where the pigs
Understand that no amount of training will change the minds of this racist society. Already $22 million has been spent on training in Riverside County to improve community and sensitivity relations within the community and nothing has changed, according to the Black Voice newspaper I once read, trying to sustain mental sanity, spiritual health, social life and political struggle in the midst of a slave holding white supremacist civilization that has viewed itself as the most enlightened, free, tolerant and democratic experiment in human history. But this cannot happen unless you try.
So when you see anger in the streets, please do not feel as though your loved ones are being disrespected. It's because the people need something or someone to rally for, against this racist bloodthirsty system that has forever stood on the backs of the people in order to maintain control of the very community they are sworn to protect.
Martin L. King said [in his Letter from Birmingham Jail written in 1963]: "This 'Wait' has almost always meant 'Never.' We must come to see, with one of our distinguished jurists [Thurgood Marshall], that 'Justice too long delayed is justice denied.'"
Send our brother, who is on San Quentin's Death Row, some love and light: Dellano Cleveland, H-20500, San Quentin State Prison, 5-EB-117, San Quentin, CA 94974.

The 2004 Dora High School graduate was recently hired as the head girls softball coach and assistant football coach at his alma mater.
He spent the last six years at Sumiton Christian High School, where he was an assistant baseball and football coach. He served as the Eagles' girls basketball coach last season.
"When I was in college, my goal was to come back to Dora to coach," Blevins said. "It's great to have this opportunity."
Blevins' high school football coach Johnny Wright — who returned as the Bulldogs' head coach last season — played a role in bringing Blevins from Sumiton Christian to Dora.
"About three or four weeks ago, I got a call from coach Wright. He said they had a history spot along with the head softball coach and assistant football coach open and he asked if I was interested," said Blevins, who interviewed for the position shortly thereafter.
"I couldn't pass up the opportunity to come back to Dora. It's kind of like I've never been gone. Walking the halls still feels the same and the football team is doing the same things we did back then," said Blevins, who played offensive and defensive line for Wright from 2001-03.
He will coach offensive line and defensive ends for the Bulldogs this season.
Blevins inherits a Dora softball team that won just two games last season. This will be Blevins' first time coaching a softball team.
He served as an assistant for Sumiton Christian baseball coach Lance Blair each of the last six years.
"When I first applied for the (Dora) job, I started talking to coach (Jessica) Aderholt. She's been a great help for me," Blevins said of Aderholt, the Sumiton Christian softball coach who has led the Eagles to the state tournament each of the last five years.
"She runs a great program and I've started to get tips from her."
Blevins met with his team for the first time last week.
"I had a great first meeting with them. I think they are fired up about playing. I told them that we are going to turn the whole program around. It starts from the top and goes down. I promised the girls at the meeting that we are going to change things around here and get it headed in the right direction. Softball is really big around here and it's growing. I feel like we are going to be competitive next year," Blevins said.
He is no stranger to building programs. Blevins helped get Sumiton Christian's girls basketball program on solid ground.
"At Sumiton Christian, I inherited a team that had three players in the entire program. When I left, we have over 30," Blevins said. "We had one senior last year and they should have a great team coming back."
Sumiton Christian finished 13-14 last season in Blevins' first year as head coach.
Blevins, 27, and his wife Ashlyn are expecting their first child in December.

Leave Lat Pull-Down Land and Build A Bigger Back by Craig Weller
Latching onto a bar with your full bodyweight in tow can be humbling experience. This is why many people end up getting stuck in Lat Pull-down Land, and fail to ever perform a single set of double-digit pull-ups.
We're here to change that. We provide you with a routine which will DOUBLE your reps on Pull Ups and get you on the road to building a wider, more muscular back.
Just one question remains... Are you up for the challenge?

awesome article! i work out in my basement and i have a power rack.. unfortunately, the ceilings are approx 7 ft so the to top of the power rack that has a straight bar for pull-up and chin-ups clears the ceiling by a couple inches so i cannot do the exercises properly
have any of you built your own bar around the house or can i buy a piece of equipment with a lower bar strictly for these exercises?

Also, like someone else said, I know of a few people who have the "perfect pullup" bar or something similar and like it. Pretty sure the perfect pullup one has rotating handles, which is good for the wrists.
Another option would be to suspend your feet somehow and do "lean away chins" so that your body is at about a 45 degree angle to the bar at the top of the movement. This changes the emphasis somewhat and hits the upper back to a greater degree than standard vertical chins (halfway between vertical and horizontal pulling) and keeps your head/face further away from the ceiling at the top. You can do it by either just actively leaning back and extending the thoracic and cervical spine at the top (keep the abs braced to prevent lumbar extension) or by actually elevating your feet on something.
Great Article, quality singles or doubles are better than a sloppy set or two of 8 reps. I usually get into the groove around the 4th set or so. I have recently started doing thick bar suspended chin-ups for sets of one. I perform these by wrapping around my black set of heavy bands around a pull-up bar and then insert a thick bar througfh the folds. Defintely makes the sets harder and forces me get tight and pull hard and fast.
Cool article. Pullups are a staple in my routine(s). I love them!
With the two workouts, is one workout done one day and the other a few days later? So in this scheme you only do chins/pull-ups once a week?
Great article. I have been doing chins and pullups, with some assistance, but have not really focused on developing them. It is time to get serious about them.

I have been doing these for a month now and they are great. Im stuck at 2 per set. I will definitely give this try. Great article.
Good article, i've gotta move onto those.
I do rack chins now. Is the single arm eccentric something a beginner should worry about, or should I just stick to the basics?

For those who cannot perform a chin up or pullup you can try fatman pullups or chinups, you can also do them band assisted. I used to be good at pullups until I tore both biceps. Now if I try to do them without asdsistance they tear my biceps apart. They are such a great part of back work. I'm glad I found a way to incorporate them again.

Training since Dec 2008.
I was supersetting lat pulldowns with flat bench for the last 8 weeks or so.
Today I gave this a try. I did pullups instead of chinups but I completed it.
That being said, I normally superset decline bench with t bar rows but went with bent over lateral raises today after reading some stuff around here. Should I still worry about doing the rows that the program suggests? I really dig the bent over lateral raises.
Also, should I strap some weight on next week for the pullups or should I raise the reps per set? I am not used to thinking within the confines of 25 sets of a single exersise lol.

Statement by MTA President Catherine A. Boudreau on Gov. Romney's Education Budget Cuts
Gov. Mitt Romney's proposed budget cuts will hurt public school children and students at our state and community colleges and the University of Massachusetts. Public education is a core service of state government and an investment in the future. By making these cuts, Gov. Romney is breaking his promise to protect essential services from the budget ax. In addition, these cuts will have a negative long-term impact on our economy.
The governor's cuts and proposed law changes will damage public education in several ways, as follows.
Reducing local aid by $114 million
As mayors throughout the state have been saying, any significant cut in local aid will have an impact on education, as well as other services. Although Gov. Romney did not cut Chapter 70 school aid directly, which we appreciate, his reductions in other local aid accounts will be felt in our schools because most communities supplement school spending with non-Chapter 70 funds.
Direct cuts to school-based programs: $25 million
Gov. Romney's deep cuts to three major education grant programs will directly affect low-income children. Giving young children the skills they need to learn to read is a "core government service," yet the governor cuts Early Literacy grants by $11.8 million. Providing poor children with programs to prepare them for school is a "core government service," yet he cuts the School Readiness grant program by $10 million. Ensuring that children aren't distracted from their studies by hunger pangs is a "core government service," yet he cuts the Universal Breakfast grant program by $3.1 million.
Higher Education cuts of $12.2 million
Providing all qualified students with access to affordable and high-quality higher education is a "core government service." Unfortunately, Gov. Romney is cutting the budgets of our state and community colleges and the University of Massachusetts by $12.2 million. These reductions come on top of the $114 million in cuts to higher education over the past two years. The ultimate result: More faculty and staff will be lost, course offerings will be reduced, programs will be cut, and tuition and fees will increase. Meanwhile, contracts for higher education faculty and staff remain unfunded.
Health insurance increases
Gov. Romney vowed not to raise taxes to deal with the budget crisis, but his proposed cut in government contributions to health insurance premiums for state and municipal employees is, in effect, a significant tax on public employees. If he wins legislative approval for his proposals, many employees will be paying more than $1,000 a year more for their health insurance -- a selective "tax" on one sector of society. We will urge the Legislature to reject these changes.
Education cuts are penny-wise and pound-foolish. The Legislature has the option of raising revenues in order to avoid them. Options for this year include tapping deeper into the Rainy Day Fund and borrowing against the Tobacco Trust Fund. For next year and beyond, it is critically important for the Legislature to adopt new sources of revenue. The governor must keep his promise to protect education and the other core government services he has pledged to maintain.

The San Jose Sharks know they need to play a little bit better in Game 2 against the Vancouver Canucks or they will be in a world of hurt. The Sharks held a 2-1 lead going into the third period of Game 1 before the Canucks scored twice in the third period to take a 3-2 victory.
The Sharks looked like a gassed team heading into that game, as the Canucks seemed to be skating circles around the Sharks at times. Sharks coach Todd McLellan believes that his team needs to improve a little in all facets though to tie the series up:
"We have to be better all over the ice," he said. "Mental strength and physical strength. You have to put yourself in a position to be successful, then when you're there, you got to get the job done physically. It starts in the circle, ends up in the corners, net front. Even skating to open ice to me is a physical battle because you have to win that race."
The major story for Vancouver heading into this series was the fact that the Sedin twins hadn't factored much on the scoresheet in the last series against the Predators. Then, Henrik Sedin scored the game-winning goal and registered an assist on the game-tying goal. The Canucks are going to need the Sedin twins along with leading scorer Ryan Kesler to continue to score for the Canucks to win this series.
The Canucks had a power outage as well when it came to the powerplay in Game 1. The Canucks had four opportunities and scored the game-winner with their only powerplay goal. In stark contrast, the Sharks held the Canucks shotless on two powerplays. The Sharks have allowed 10 powerplay goals on 56 opportunities in these playoffs, which is good for seventh in the league, while the Canucks have a top-five powerplay this postseason.
The Canucks seem to have a reputation of diving, and San Jose is making sure that they are airing their grievances early and often. In Game 1, the Sharks had only one powerplay compared to the aforementioned four the Canucks had. San Jose's Dan Boyle had this to say about the situation after Game 1:
"We were aware of what Nashville was accusing them of the series before, and I saw it firsthand last night," Boyle said in response to a question during the off-day media scrum. "Even the penalty I got, I'm thankful Lapierre got a diving penalty for it because their heads are going back like they got shot with a gun."
Game time is at 9:00 pm Eastern and can be seen on CBC in Canada and Versus in the United States.

ALEXANDRIA, La. (News Channel 5)- The Rotary Club of Alexandria hosted the Honorable Judge Dee Drell of the Fifth Circuit Court today.
Judge Drell spoke about the recent effects of sequestration on the judicial branch. The area within the judicial branch feeling the worst of these cuts is federal public defenders system...who represent people in court who can't afford a private lawyer.
Judge Drell also spoke about the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court--a controversial topic in light of the recent NSA leaks.
"Well listen carefully to what I have to say It's probably all somewhat inherent in the process of trying to deal with, trying to keep us safe and also safeguard Americans Constitutional rights. That's the real balance and the test and that's what the issue is," says Drell.
Judge Drell was appointed to the District Court in 2003 by President George H. W. Bush.

Eliot Spitzer outlines NYCHA policy proposals
For the first time since jumping into the city comptroller race in July, former Gov. Eliot Spitzer outlined specific policy proposals on public housing Wednesday.
Speaking at the Frederick Douglass Houses on the Upper East Side, Spitzer said he would hold the New York City Housing Authority more accountable as comptroller than the current "establishment" — a jab at his biggest rival in the race, Manhattan Borough President Scott Stringer.
"The establishment has failed NYCHA residents time and time again," Spitzer said in a statement.
As part of his proposal, Spizter said he opposed fingerprinting NYCHA residents to increase safety, as suggested by Mayor Michael Bloomberg last week.
"When the establishment got together to give this mayor a third term, in contradiction of the will of New Yorkers, we got ideas like fingerprinting our neighbors instead of action to secure our neighborhoods," Spitzer said.
Spitzer said he would use existing funds to complete installation of security cameras at NYCHA developments — something most candidates, mayoral and otherwise, have also promised.
He also said he actively monitor NYCHA repairs, which are backlogged in the thousands. Spitzer would also review lease agreements between NYCHA and private developers.
In outlining his public housing strategy, Spitzer's campaign noted that as governor he signed the Shelter Allowance Bill, which allowed the state to fund an additional $47 million to NYCHA in 2007.
In a cutting statement on Spitzer's proposals, a spokeswoman for Stringer's campaign said the borough president has been an "outspoken leader" on issues affecting public housing residents.
"It's nice that 20 days before an election, Eliot Spitzer has woken up to the needs of public housing residents," spokeswoman Audrey Gelman said.
Stringer's campaign noted he has previously released reports on NYCHA calling for a restructuring of the board, which was later approved.
Spitzer's campaign pointed out Stringer had previously praised Spitzer for a "commitment to housing that has not been seen at the state level for years."

Do you have an interest in serving your cooperative and your community? Do you share a commitment to your co-op's mission and values? Are you a conceptual thinker who can grasp the big picture? Can you work in a group to oversee a vibrant developing organization and help it articulate and achieve its end goals?
If all of the above sound good to you so far, you may have an interest in running for the BCS Board of Directors. Even though we just witnessed an inauguration ceremony from last November's national election, we still have another election cycle coming up in the cooperative world of Bloomingfoods.
Nominations will soon be accepted for three open seats in this years' Board of Director's Election. This is the first call for candidates, getting you thinking about whether or not it is something you'd be interested in, and even more importantly, something you'd be good at and enjoy.
What kind of candidate is Bloomingfoods looking for? Well, we've been very fortunate over the years in having highly motivated and capable BOD members and we hope to continue this tradition. Other than being a member in good standing, no prior experience or professional training is required to run for the board. Necessary training will be provided to newly elected Board members. However, we have found over the years that certain skills and abilities make for useful and satisfied directors. They include:
• Integrity, flexibility, and common sense
• Communication and group process skills
• Leadership and facilitation skills
• Ability to see the big picture
• Ability to read financial statements (training provided to all new BOD members)
• Ability to support a group decision, regardless of personal viewpoint
• Commitment to enhance the quality of life for our community
• A desire to learn
• Understanding of the cooperative movement and Bloomingfoods history
This is your first reminder that the 2013 election cycle is about to begin. In next month's newsletter we'll provide information about what is expected of board members, share a little bit about the Policy Governance model that we utilize to govern our organization, and provide details on the nomination and election process. Here's hoping that if it seems like it could be a good fit for you, you'll throw your hat in the ring.

Film Review: 'In the loop'
Date: August 20, 2009
by: Pam Nadon
Political satires are a tough sell on the big screen. Films such as "Wag the Dog" and "Primary Colors" never came close to the genius that fueled Stanley Kubrick's "Dr. Strangelove" in 1964. But writer/director Armando Iannucci's first feature film, "In the Loop," is on the right track because it watches Washington spin and sell the insanities of war.
Presumably, the film takes place just prior to the Iraqi invasion. Simon Foster, the British minister of international development (Tom Hollander, "Valkyrie"), has given an interview to the BBC in which he states, "War is unforeseeable." The comment enrages Malcolm Tucker, the prime minister's director of communications, (Peter Capaldi) who ships Foster and his neophyte assistant off to Washington to make amends with the State Department.
Because Foster is a dove, he's targeted by Assistant Secretary of Diplomacy Karen Clarke (Mimi Kennedy) and her former lover/pacifist, four-star Lt. Gen. George Miller (James Gandolfini, aka Tony Soprano). Hopes of using him in their anti-war movement are dashed when pro-war State Department official Linton Barwick (David Rasche,"Burn Before Reading") digs up some dirt. He's the guy who uses a live grenade as a paperweight.
Having said all that, "In the Loop" is seriously funny. Razor-sharp dialogue is delivered by a master class of actors. Favorite moments are scenes between Gandolfini and Kennedy, whose intimate past history is evident in their incredible body language. Hollander demonstrates serious star power while he tackles a major range of emotions. Capaldi's relentless bile-spewing profanity was a tad over-the-top, so rapid-fire I missed much of it.
As Iannucci explores the lunacy of pettiness existing among technocrats within government circles, he spares no one. Liberals and conservatives are just as smarmy. And never does he allow the veneer of comedy belie what lies beneath. War, no matter where or why it's manufactured, always takes a grievous toll.

OAKLAND CITY, Ind. (AP) — A southwestern Indiana teacher has been arrested on a child seduction charge for allegedly sending a student inappropriate text messages.
State Police arrested 32-year-old Kyle F. Scott without incident Tuesday afternoon at his Newburgh home. Scott had been held at the Gibson County Jail on bail set at $10,000 but he has apparently posted bond.
The Evansville Courier & Press reports State Police say Scott sent inappropriate text messages, including at least one photo and video, to a high school student in December. Police say Scott is also accused of fondling the student on at least one occasion.
He's a teacher at Wood Memorial High School in Oakland City, where records show he holds a valid state teaching license allowing him to teach French.

Not much but keeps it dry. Can use the 1.5 car garage for emergency repairs. Hurricane clips on all rafters for the occassional tornado we get. One hit within 2 blocks of this location last year. Posts are on piers 38" deep and framing is screwed together. Cheap job because I had a gift card from Lowes I hadn't used.

Re: Cub House Shop Photos
Well, it has been a while since I started my Cub House project... but after a few interesting years it is almost finally done. For a review the New Home for my Cubs thread has some nice pics.... but this is essentially where my Cubs now live...
Nov 18, 2008
I finally got most of the inside done now, all the wiring/lighting is done, the two beams are painted with the trolley mounted on one, the vast majority of insulation and sheathing is done. Just have to finish off closing in the old roof which will aid in keeping the pole barn warmer this year.

This year so far has been the warmest on record since 1961 .. we will be lucky to have a white Christmas

Re: Cub House Shop Photos
That is the style of shop I want---enclosed in the center and a lean-to on each side.
How big is it, and is it stick built from scratch or is it a manufactured building like a Morton, etc?

Let us pray for farmers and all who prepare the soil for planting, that the seeds they sow may lead to a bountiful harvest.
Re: Cub House Shop Photos
The enclosed part is 32x40, with a 10 ft lean to on the upper side and a 12 foot on the lower side for truck and trailer. lower one should have been 14 feet. Stick built, there is a place near here that sells metal siding and sells kits, all the lumber, metal, screws, etc for a single price. it has what is called Solar Wrap under roof and on walls. it is a layer of foil, 1/2 inch of fiberglass insulation, and a layer of white plastic inside the building. Really makes a difference in temperature. The main mistake i made was the sliding doors, they are only 10feet wide, ones on the end you can see should have been 12feet. By the time you allow for the door facings, a wide trailer only has about 8 inches of clearance on each side of the wheels. pretty careful backing required.

The Documentary
It is at this point that the story becomes fascinating. In the past, WWE DVD releases have done a really poor job in describing what the expansion era of the WWE was like. This time, the WWE does a tremendous job and tells that story from both the viewpoints of the WWE and one of their competitors from that era.
While the DVD discusses the WWE expansion, the main focus stays on the AWA and the many mistakes they made that allowed the WWE to knock them out of business. Without a doubt, their biggest mistake involved Hulk Hogan and their petty dealings with him that cost them millions of dollars. That penny-wise dollar-foolish attitude continues throughout the story as their dealings with Stan Hansen and Jerry Lawler illustrate.
The most amazing part of this disc is listening to Verne and Greg Gagne discuss what they did and still not be able to face the reality that some of the decisions they made were really bad. While there is some revisionist history on this disc from both sides, it is kept to a minimum on this DVD.
My only gripe with the documentary is that the pink room used by the AWA at the end was never shown. The reason this upsets me is because newer fans would never believe what the TV show used to look like unless they saw this with their own eyes.
The Matches
Disc 2
One of the things that I feel led to the downfall of the AWA was a penny-wise dollar-foolish philosophy. One of the areas where the AWA badly skimped out on was their production values and these matches prove that. A majority of the matches are shot with only one camera. For the time that many of these matches took place, that is just embarrassing when compared to what the other major promotions of the era were doing.
As far as the matches themselves, they are a nice walk down memory lane but there is no must see match on this DVD.

Wegener's Granulomatosis
Wegener's Granulomatosis Overview
Wegener's granulomatosis (WG) is a rare disease in which blood vessels become inflamed (a condition called vasculitis) and localized, nodular collections of abnormal inflammatory cells, known as granulomas, are found in affected tissues. Granulomatosis is the term that refers to the presence of granulomas. The inflammation can affect various parts of the body, such as the respiratory tract (nose, sinuses, windpipe, and lungs) and the kidneys. When blood vessels become inflamed, blood flow to the organs is disrupted, which can damage the organs. The condition is named after Friedrich Wegener, who identified the illness in the 1930s.
Wegener's granulomatosis is rare, and its exact frequency is difficult to determine. According to the Wegener's Granulomatosis Association, the condition affects one in every 30,000-50,000 people. The disease can affect anyone at any age. However, it affects white people in their 30s and 40s most often. African Americans account for only 2-3% of those affected by Wegener's granulomatosis.
With proper diagnosis and treatment, the disease can be slowed or stopped.

WILMINGTON,NC (WECT)- Now that it's officially October, many are moving toward everything cinnamon, pumpkin and delicious when it comes to treats for family and friends.
In celebration of the season change, Samantha Smith, owner of the Sugar on Front Street bakery shared some of her favorite recipes which she said are pretty easy to make yourself at home:
Cranberry Oatmeal Cookies with Orange Glaze
1/2 c. softened butter
3/4 dark brown sugar, lightly packed.
1 egg
1/2 tsp. Singing Dog Vanilla Bean Paste
3/4 c. unbleached all purpose flour
1/2 tsp. salt
1/4 tsp. soda
1 1/2 c. rolled oats
1/2 c. dried cranberries (not Craisins!)
Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
Beat butter and sugar till combined. Add egg and vanilla and stir well. Scrape down sides of bowl. Beat in remaining ingredients till combined. Scoop by tablespoonfuls onto parchment lined sheet pan. Give room to spread. Bake for 7 minutes. Turn pan around and bake for another 7 minutes. These cookies are done when they have bubbled in the middle and are a golden brown color.
Orange Glaze
1 cup powdered sugar,
2 tablespoons orange juice (fresh!)
1 teaspoon finely grated orange zest
When cookies are almost cool, drizzle lightly with glaze-unless you REALLY like frosting and then slather those babies thickly!
Pumpkin Gingerbread
1/2 c. softened butter
2 tbsp. granulated sugar
1 egg
1 cup molasses
1/2 cup pumpkin (not pumpkin pie filling)
3/4 c. boiling water
2 1/2 c. sifted unbleached all purpose flour
1 tsp. soda
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 tsp. freshly grated cinnamon
1 tsp. ground ginger
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Line either a dozen muffin cups or a 2 lbs loaf pan and GREASE WELL!
Combine first 5 ingredients in a mixer. While mixing sift together ALL dry ingredients. Do not skip the sifting! When wet ingredients well combined, slowly add the boiling water with mixer still going-as soon as all water is incorporated add in dry ingredients. Combine thoroughly, scrape a lot but do NOT over mix. Bake muffins till a toothpick or skewer comes out clean-about 18 minutes. Bake loaf-starting at 30 minutes and check at 5 minute intervals after that. Do not over bake!

"Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit, teaching them everything I have commanded you!" We've all read it, but how many of us have truly considered Jesus' parting command?
Missions are a vital part of church ministry. Taking inspiration from the Great Commission and the words of Christ, overseas mission endeavors help spread the kingdom of God across the globe. Countless people live in darkness in this world and it's our responsibility and calling to share the Way, the Truth and the Life with them. Our desire is to help people from Christ-centered, community-focused congregations. Our hope is to then mobilize people to active involvement in their communities so they can begin to win their friends and neighbors for Christ. The pastors and congregation of The Good Shepherd Ministries are determined to help all people, here and abroad, to know, love and serve Jesus Christ!

USA Entertainment Agency books corporates, casinos, colleges, and clubs throughout the United States. Started in 1988, we have booked and produced over 5000 shows.
One of the huge differences between USA Entertainment Agency and other booking agencies is that we own two comedy clubs, a piano bar, a sports bar, and have promoted our own music shows in theaters, casinos, and arenas. We know how to book quality shows that we have screened and we eliminate the risk for you.
We are passionate about the quality of our shows and are not in this for a short term relationship. We want your business year after year and treat you that way.
"I have been partnering with USA Entertainment Agency for 7 years now and the talent they book is great. They know what works in a casino and they are available to us via phone or email almost 24 hours a day. They book comedy, dueling pianos and big name bands for us. If you are considering a booking agency for your casino, club, or corporate show USA Entertainment Agency has the experience in the entertainment world to do it." - Scott Thomas, Entertainment Manager, Diamond Jo Casino, Dubuque, IA
"Since we partnered with USA Entertainment Agency for our comedy shows the crowds have almost doubled. The fact they own comedy clubs gives them insight into how a show should be run. This has resulted in noticeably funnier and more professional shows than what we had with our previous booker. Bottom line - our business is up, our guests are happier, and we are making more money." - Frank Melgreen, Decatur Hotel and Convention Center, Decatur, IL
"NICC has been very pleased to work with USA Entertainment for our upcoming comedian and concert for the Tri-State Firefighter Conference that we are hosting. The staff has been attentive to the details of our event, expedient in responding to our phone and emails, and has been very resourceful with providing us top notched entertainment for our attendees. They have made our planning for this event effortless and we look forward to working with them for our future conferences. I can't say enough about the service we have received. Thank you!" - Phil Arensdorf, Northeast Iowa Community College, Town Clock Center for Professional Development, Tri-State Firefighter Conference

Oscar nomination for 'oldest Holocaust survivor' film
6:00am Sunday 26th January 2014 in News By Becky Middleton, Chief Reporter
A glittering night at the Oscars awaits a producer who wants the story of an 'inspiring' 110-year-old Holocaust survivor to be seen by the world.
Chris Branch is one of the three producers of the Oscar nominated The Lady in Number 6: Music Saved My Life, that tells the story Alice Herz Sommer, who is said to be the world's oldest Holocaust survivor and pianist.
Mr Branch, of West Hill Road, Southfields, said that it is 'fantastically exciting' to be part of a team that worked on the Oscar nominated film.
Mr Branch, a regular rider at the Wimbledon Village Stables, said: "I have been living this for three years.
"Of course it is fantastically exciting and there will be a trip to the Oscars but I am more excited that we can get the story out to a larger population."
In the Second World War, Ms Herz Sommer and her then six-year-old son Raphael Sommer were carted off to the Theresienstadt concentration camp, in what is now the Czech Republic.
She is said to have played more than 100 concerts in Theresienstadt, a former barracks transformed into a ghetto for Jews.
The team spent three years making this film, and found out on Thursday, January 16 that it had been given an Oscar nod.
Mr Branch said: "Alice is an extraordinary woman.
"She has seen the worst that life can throw and the most evil that someone can see and she sees the positive in things."
Ms Herz Sommer, who lives independently in north London, is no stranger to the media, and has been featured in the national press, as well as on television and in a book by Caroline Stoessinger, A Century of Wisdom: Lessons From the Life of Alice Herz-Sommer the World's Oldest Living Holocaust Survivor.
Proceeds from the film will be given to the Raphael Sommer Music Scholarship fund, named after Alice's son who passed away in 2001.
The film is nominated in the Best documentary short category alongside four other titles. The winners will be announced at the Oscars ceremony on Sunday, March 2
