Salisbury, MD. So, you haven't bought that Mother's Day present yet? You say she doesn't need anything and you've no clue where to go from there?
Well, you're certainly not alone in that particular boat. The Gardening Grannies have often found themselves in that situation over the years (they agree that mothers-in law are the toughest). The Grannies have worked out eight last minute solutions for those of you who have mothers who are fond of plants and/or flowers:
1) Starting with the obvious, you can always send flowers. Every flower shop around can find something in just the right container and color combination to please any mother and it can be done at the absolute last minute.
2) Want something more permanent than flowers? How about a planter? Check out your local florist, garden center or market. Planters are available in a wide price range. On a really tight budget? How about a single plant creatively wrapped with a homemade card?
3) Seeking something she can actually use? How about some gardening tools from Smith & Hawkins, a quality tool and garden furniture maker? You can find their tools and smaller pieces of furniture at your local Target store or, for larger pieces, go to the Smith & Hawkins website. Admittedly, it's a bit late to order but, if creativity is your strong suit, you can come up for an acceptable excuse for a late delivery (apologies from the Grannies to Smith & Hawkins and their shippers).
4) A favorite among the Grannies (whether giving or receiving) is lunch at the Mom's favorite restaurant followed by an hour or two of plant shopping at a locally owned garden center. For those of you looking for a special event, you might want to keep in mind that this Saturday is the Native Plant Sale at the Ward Museum in Salisbury (9A-4P). Saturday is also the "Spring on the Farm" celebration (11A-4P) at T.S. Smith & Sons in Bridgeville (cooking demonstrations, farm tours, soil testing, native plant among others).
5) Longwood Gardens is another favorite for Mother's Day, but be prepared for crowds of Moms and their progeny. The Grannies, who are loyal Members of Longwood Gardens, received advisories of the anticipated high volume of guests in the Gardens this weekend. That being said, Longwood Gardens is still very much worth the trip, just allow a tad more time at the Gardens, the gift shop and the on-site restaurant.
6) Come from a large family? You can bail the whole gang out by offering to come en masse to Mom's and do a Spring Yard Clean Up and then order in pizza for everybody.
7) Does your Mom love gardening but has not yet become a Master Gardener? How about paying for her to become one (less than $100)? Better yet, how about joining her and becoming one with her? It could be a terrific bonding experience. Just Google Master Gardener plus your area for specific information.
8) If your Mom is already a Master Gardener, the perfect gift might be an all-expense paid registration for the International Master Gardener Conference (October 11-14) in Charleston, West Virginia. For additional information, Google International Master Gardener Conference 2011.
Whatever you choose to do, we hope you make it a great day with your Mom and, if you no longer have a Mom of your own, you can give your kids a Mother's Day present. After all, if it weren't for them, you wouldn't be a Mom!
The Gardening Grannies are a group of avid and Master Gardeners who live, love and garden on the Delmarva Peninsula. You can reach them at firstname.lastname@example.com.

A court hearing is underway in the dog fighting case involving Toranio Hightower, a Detroit area rapper known as Young Calicoe.
He and two other defendants are charged in Wayne County with Conspiracy to Gamble, Conspiracy to Commit Animal Fighting and Animal Fighting between July 2009 and July 2012 at a home located on West Outer Drive in Detroit. If convicted, the 22-year-old rapper and his accomplices face up to 13 years behind bars.
On Tuesday an animal cruelty investigator with the Michigan Humane Society was on the stand.
The whole case against Young Calicoe began in July after a video went viral reportedly showing the rapper bragging about dog fighting. Police and animal cruelty investigators raided the home and seized dogs found in kennels along with several other animals including roosters and rabbits.
In July Calicoe denied the allegations to FOX 2 saying the whole thing has been blown out of proportion. He said he is a battle rapper and the video was all about image. He said the animals did not belong to him but rather to a friend of his who is an animal lover. He said the animals were not used for fighting in any way.
Today's preliminary hearing is expected to continue on Friday and will be used to determine if there is enough evidence to bring the case to trial.
Come back to myFOXDetroit.com for updates and look for a full report on FOX 2 News beginning at 5 p.m.

Hello is not just a greeting. The moment you open this page, we are connected. No mater who you are or where you are, it is my honor to be known by you from 6 billion people on this planet. I don't believe you open the page randomly, cause there are billions of pages been viewed and visited every second, but why me, why this one, why this moment. So just keep reading, regard this as some kind of asynchronous communication. If you want to tell me something, hit the connect button and leave me a message, then we will be strangers no more!
Welcome again to my home in this internet world. The owner of this piece of land is currently a master student studying Robotics at University of Pennsylvania, whose ultimate academic goal is to build the 'brain' of robots! If robots only mean machines or mechanical devices, you might want to think it again. To me, robot is a life form who shares this world with us. It could be a piece of code, or a circuit board or even your smart phone. But this kind of life is so young and not yet well developed, which means it is not clever enough and always need human beings, its creators, to help them to finish their tasks. It is obviously not good enough!
Fortunately, lots of amazing achievements have been made in mathematics and statistics in the past few years, which recently popularize a field of study, Machine Learning. I believe machine learning gives us a key to eventually open the door for robots to be able to think and behave just like us -- human beings, or at least much smarter than those we already have. I can feel that moment is coming and I am so eager to evolve into it.
However, it is not a easy journey to build smarter robots. If we want to apply machine learning to robotics, we need to solve two major problems. The first one is where and how to get the data that robots need to learn from. All the successful exampleds of machine learning we have are the applications on the big data. When we train a robot, where the data come from? Please recall growth of a human being, parents and teachers spend at least 16 years to train a person to be mature. Thus the next question we need to ask is do robots need teachers? If the answer is yes, how should these teachers teach robots and how many years a robot need to learn before he can do work independently? Even if we find a way to answer all those questions above and successfully gather huge amount of data we can use, there will still be another open question about data themselves, in which format we can represent them so machines can use them.
The second major problem is what model or models we should use to teach or control robots. It is actually depends on the architecture of robots we design in the future. On high computational power platform, we may use some fancy but time consuming algorithm, like deep learning; on the other hand on low computational power platform we may need some fast or updatable algorithm, like SVM or perceptron. However is it the way we want to design robots, from a specific case to another specific case? Is there a way we can generalize the scheme? Machine learning people knows testing an observation or a group of observations is always much faster than training a model. Therefore, the next question should be asked is can robots share the same brain, which might be a network that contains thousands of machines. This kind of network will make training any kinds of model easier and faster, and only need to push back models to robots, which can be used by robots to make decisions. Cloud Robotics seems to give us a very promising solution.
Hopefuly, one day I will have the opportunities to work all those questions out and achieve something that will reshape this world permanently.

I haven't read Stephenie Meyer's books, but I liked the first Twilight movie, so even though I'm not a card-carrying Twi-hard I have no axe to grind where this series is concerned. That said, I thought this new installment was incredibly boring. Woe to any newcomer who's unfamiliar with the characters and situations, because Eclipse offers virtually no exposition. I suppose the filmmakers feel that only the faithful will bother to see it, but that's no excuse for the complete lack of dramatic context.
The film opens with Edward (Robert Pattinson) and Bella (Kristen Stewart) sitting in a field of flowers as she reads poetry and he moons over her. Their love talk is accompanied by music that one might hear in a Flowers-by-Wire commercial. Sorry to say, that vapid sequence is a portent of things to come: the whole movie feels lifeless (pun intended).
The anguish in this chapter of the story ought to be—
—palpable: Bella has committed to joining the Cullen vampire clan as soon as she graduates from high school. This is a crucial step that, once taken, cannot be undone. What's more, Edward's future is at risk because of a threat from a pack of rogue vampires—thirsty newborns who have no discipline. And there is the ongoing tension with the wolves, led by Bella's protective friend Jacob (the perpetually shirtless Taylor Lautner). But even with those juicy elements, Eclipse feels hollow. I felt aloof during the wolf attacks—and normally I'm quite squeamish—because somehow I sensed that the animals weren't real, and the film never made me believe otherwise when it mattered most.
Even if all one seeks from this movie is the opportunity to stare at its youthful stars, there are nits to pick. Kristen Stewart's appearance has subtly changed, while Robert Pattinson's makeup seems more obvious than ever. Some of the Cullen clan have little more than bit parts this time around, and the Volturis' screen time is scarcely longer.
At two hours, the movie feels long, yet I'm sure screenwriter Melissa Rosenberg labored mightily to whittle Stephenie Meyer's 640-page novel down to size. I don't know where to point an accusing finger, but something is missing from Eclipse. Perhaps the filmmakers ought to watch their own origin story—released just two years ago—and remind themselves of the qualities that gave this series its momentum.
sarah | July 2, 2010 4:46 AM
I absolutly loved the books, which I didn't read until after seeing the first two movies. I adore the love story between Bella and Edward, but there does seem to be something missing in Eclipse. Those who have read the book know Bella becomes aware that she feels a love for Jacob, but she did not come across as though she loved Edward, or that he also was risking everything for her. I hope Stephanie Meyer makes certain that the new director for the 2 part Breaking Dawn, brings across the notion that Bella loves Edward as she showed in Twilight, and New Moon. I did not like the end where Bella tells Edward she's always been different and this is the life she is meant for. She came across like if Edward was there ok, but if not it really wasn't about him.

SALLIS, Miss. (KNOE 8 News/AP) - Authorities in Attala County say a 12 year-old girl is recovering after a male student set her hair on fire with a cigarette lighter.
Attala County Schools Superintendent Bryan Weaver says the incident took place at Long Creek Elementary School on Tuesday.
Weaver says one boy brought the lighter to school and another used it to set the girl's hair on fire in a hallway.
A teacher extinguished the fire, and the girl was taken to a hospital for treatment.
Weaver says the school has surveillance video that shows the incident wasn't an accident.
He says the two students could be expelled for the incident when the school board reviews it.
The Attala County Sheriff's Department has turned the case over to youth court.

'Paedo' jibes over Oswaldtwistle man's Facebook sex suggestion
11:30am Monday 19th November 2012 in News By Wendy Barlow, Court reporter
A DISGRACED ex-transport manager had been branded a 'paedo' in Oswaldtwistle after suggesting sex to a frightened schoolgirl over Facebook, a court was told.
Father-of-four Mark Turner, whose 20-year marriage had fallen apart due to his alcohol use, had been subjected to 'public vilification' after his 'disgraceful' conduct became common knowledge in the local community.
Burnley Crown Court heard Turner, 43, had been living alone in a one-bedroom flat and been drinking heavily.
He was said to have been in a state of depression and despair when he told the teenager: "I will get into trouble if I tell you what I want to tell you."
The defendant then said he wanted to make love to her, asked her how she felt and she replied she was scared.
The victim blocked the conversation, but Turner then texted her, telling her he wanted to have sex with her 'big time' and apologising for frightening her. The teenager said no, told her mother and the defen-dant was arrested and questioned by police.
Turner fought back tears in the dock as he was spared jail by a judge who slammed his behaviour as 'disgraceful'.
The defendant, of St Paul's Court, Oswaldtwistle, had admitted inciting a child to engage in sexual activity.
He was given a 12-month community order with supervision and a six-month alcohol treat-ment programme. The defendant, who was told to pay £250 costs, must sign the sex offenders' register for five years.
Stephen Parker, prosecuting, said when interviewed by police, Turner told them he was embarrassed, ashamed and his actions had been completely out of character for him. Alan Wolstenholme, for Turner, said: "He could not have done more in terms of candour and in terms of his contrition and remorse for the offence."
Mr Wolstenholme said Turner had been sub-jected to public vilification within the community and had been branded a 'paedo' .
Mr Wolstenholme said Turner, who was now on a course at college, was not assessed by the probation service as being a predator or showing signs of becoming one.
He said: "The defendant is utterly contrite and is terrified of going to prison."

SAN TAN VALLEY, Ariz. (AP) - A man suffered fatal injuries after he was ejected from his SUV in a single-vehicle rollover crash in the Pinal County community of San Tan Valley.
The Pinal County Sheriff's Office says 68-year-old Keith William Swenson of San Tan Valley died in Monday's crash.
Authorities say it doesn't appear that Swenson was impaired by alcohol or drugs but say he may have suffered from a medical condition.
An autopsy will determine his cause of death.
The sheriff's office says Swenson drifted onto the road's shoulder and tried unsuccessfully to regain control of his SUV, but overcorrected and crashed.
He was not wearing a seat belt.

In December, 2004 when the Israeli army started bulldozing our land and uprooting olive trees to build the wall, we went to our fields to protest. We learned from other
We developed creative activities for our weekly protests. One Friday, activists locked themselves inside a cage, representing the wall's impacts. Another time, we built a Palestinian "outpost" on our village's land located behind the wall and next to an Israeli settlement, mimicking the Israeli strategy of establishing outposts to expand settlements.
Another Friday we handed the Israeli soldiers a letter saying, "Had you come here as guests, we would show you the trees that our grandfathers planted here, and the vegetables that we grow… There will never be security for any of us until Israelis respect our rights to this land."
We hosted two international conferences on nonviolent resistance, and many Israeli and international activists responded to our call to join us in a "joint struggle." Palestinians, Israelis and foreigners suffered patiently together as the soldiers met our nonviolent actions with teargas, rubber-coated steel bullets, and clubs. Over 800 activists were injured in 200 demonstrations. An Israeli attorney and a Bil'in resident both suffered permanent brain damage from rubber-coated steel bullets shot from close range. Another Palestinian lost sight in one eye. 49 Bil'in residents, including some protest leaders, were arrested. Some spent months in prison.
Our achievements are due to our persistence, the worldwide media attention we attracted, and the support we gained from committed Israeli activists.
We never expected much from the occupier's courts. The Israeli official who planned the wall told the Washington Post last month that he lost only three legal challenges to the wall's path, out of 120 appeals filed, this though the wall isolates 10% of the West Bank and was ruled illegal where it is built inside the

The rush to build followed President Bush's April, 2004 letter to then Israeli Prime Minster Ariel Sharon stating that, "new realities on the ground, including already existing population centers" make it unrealistic to expect Israel to withdraw completely to the Green Line. Israel responded by expanding "existing population centers", building huge apartment complexes, like Mattiyahu East, for hundreds of thousands of people, and calling them neighborhoods in existing settlements.
These expanding settlement blocs fall conveniently on
We will continue to challenge these expanding settlements because they threaten the futures of Bil'in and the Palestinian people. And we will put our experience at the service of other communities struggling against the wall and settlements. From Bil'in, we call on Israeli and international activists to join us as we renew our joint struggle for freedom.

The roar of engines and beautiful motorcycles are common sight and sounds in Panama City Beach this weekend. But, it was a small parade of bikers that turned heads Saturday afternoon. The rain didn't prevent dozens of riders from honoring a fallen hero.
Sergeant Kevin Kight was a shift supervisor with the Panama City Beach Police Department's Patrol Division. Kight was killed during a felony traffic stop on March 27th, 2005. He left behind his wife Christina and son Brandon, who was four years old at the time.
"Everywhere you go, there's a reminder. Everybody remembers, but it's good. It is good. It's good for other officers because it helps remind them to stay on their toes," said Christina Kight, who sat down with News 13 for an exclusive interview.
The beach community honors the fallen officer with a bi-annual motorcycle ride during each Thunder Beach.
"We changed the name of the parade to the Kevin Kight Memorial Parade in his honor because he did so much for kids," said Diana Woods, one of the parade organizers.
Christina Kight said the name change means so much to her and her son. "He loved kids. He enjoyed Thunder Beach. He was never a biker, never rode the motorcycles, but he liked to look at them, and he loved talking to the different people."
For eight years, people have joined together to ride through Panama City Beach and raise money for children in the community.
"All of the money and all of the food stays on this beach. It goes from bridge to bridge, from the inner coastal to the Gulf. It does not leave this community, and the police distribute it throughout in the schools," said Woods
Perhaps the best thing for Woods and other bikers is watching Kight's son grow up over the years. "Seeing him today, it's amazing how their son has grown into such a good looking young man."
"I think over the years, it's just really starting to hit him truly what an impact Kevin had," said Christina Kight.
Kight's death is a tragedy the community will never forget but one that continues to bring so many together.
"They wrapped us up, and it was awesome. It was overwhelming, emotional. Yes, I am proud to live here," said Christina Kight.
This is the eighteenth year the motorcycle parade has raised money for local children, with the past eight years dedicated to Sergeant Kight.

Portlandia: A real nerd is 'ashamed to be called a nerd'
I've had a tough time getting into the show Portlandia, with aspects of it making me feel, well, a bit uncomfortable. I enjoyed the show's opening Dream of the 90s video. But since then, I think the Portlandia has been more miss than hit. Now, here comes a mock public service announcement from the show… Read More

mysqldump from MySQL 5.5 then restore to 5.1
I'm running vBulletin (forum software) on a Windows dedicated server. I recently had to upgrade the operating system to the latest version of Windows Server and in the process I also installed all the current versions of everything, including MySQL. (I restored the database from a mysqldump that was done before the upgrades).
Well now there are some small issues with vBulletin, and vBulletin kinda recommends downgrading MySQL (to make a long story short). So I'm going to use mysqldump to back up the current database, then I will simply uninstall MySQL 5.5 and then install 5.1, and restore the database from the dump file.
Is it safe to do that? I mean, is it safe to do the mysqldump from a later version of MySQL (in this case 5.5) and then restore it to an earlier version (in this case 5.1)? Any guidance would be greatly appreciated!

you should be okay, since the data is dumped using CREATE TABLE and INSERT statements, and there is general backwards compatibility
why not set up a separate mysql instance for the 5.1 version and test it?rudy.ca | @rudydotca

JACKSONVILLE, Fla. – Two teams looking to move past shaky performances in their Atlantic Sun openers and grab a vital first win in conference play will meet on Wednesday night at Swisher Gym as the Jacksonville University men's basketball team (4-8, 0-1 A-Sun) hosts the Kennesaw State Owls (3-11, 0-1 A-Sun). Tip time is scheduled for 7 p.m. Scott Manze and Artis Gilmore will have the call on 92.5 FM with a live video stream available on ASun.TV.
Jacksonville played neck and neck with Mercer on Monday for more than 16 minutes. With less than four minutes to play, the Bears were up by just two, 31-29. A 10-0 run going into halftime gave the visitors some much-needed breathing room and the lead only grew from there. By the time it was all said and done, Mercer ended the game with a 55-20 stretch of play over the final 24 minutes. Javon Dawson led the way for JU with 13 points. In four games since a return from injury, the senior forward has averaged more than 10 points, nine rebounds and two steals.
Also coming in on a down note is Kennesaw State. The Owls suffered an 85-60 defeat across town at North Florida on Monday night. Now losers of six straight entering the game, Kennesaw State's only win over a Division I opponent came back on Nov. 19 in a 73-69 win at Chattanooga. Orlando Coleman has started every game and leads the team with 11.1 points and 7.1 rebounds per game. Nate Rucker is a new addition to the team and has started the last four games. He scored 18 points and had six rebounds against the Ospreys.
In two matchups last season, the Dolphins and Owls managed a split with each home team coming away with the win. Jacksonville's 99-92 triple-overtime victory on Jan. 10 of last season earned Cliff Warren his 108th all-time victory to become the winningest coach in program history. That win was the team's 12th in a row over the Owls, but Kennesaw State ended the streak with a 75-68 win on Feb. 9. In 16 all-time meetings, Jacksonville has a 12-4 edge.
Next up for Jacksonville is the longest trip of the conference season. The Dolphins will travel to play Northern Kentucky on Jan.4 at 7 p.m., and then conclude the set with a game at Lipscomb on Jan. 6 at 6 p.m.

In recent years, the Chiefs were doing good to get a primetime game.
Now they have networks fighting over their games.
CBS is using two of its five "challenges" to prevent NBC from airing the upcoming Chiefs-Broncos games.
Currently, both the AFC West rivals are undefeated and their games are highly anticipated.
The NFL allows NBC to move Sunday day games to primetime during weeks 11 through 17. This allows NBC to avoid airing turkey games and air games between teams with playoff implications.
Fox and CBS each are allowed a block during weeks 11 through 16 or a total of five challenges. No challenges are allowed during week 17.
NBC had signaled to the NFL and the teams their interest in airing at least one of the Chiefs-Broncos games.
KCTV5 has confirmed that CBS has told the NFL it won't allow NBC to snap up either of the games.
On Nov. 17, coach Andy Reid will lead the Chiefs into Denver's Sports Authority Field at Mile High. The game will start at 3:25 p.m.
Quarterback Peyton Manning and the Broncos come to Arrowhead at noon on Dec. 1. CBS could move this game back to 3:25 p.m.
CBS has already announced that the Chiefs game against the Texans on Oct. 20 will move from noon to 3:25 p.m.
Click here to read more on the NFL's flex rules.
And in another sign of how popular the Chiefs are now that they are undefeated, CBS is broadcasting Sunday's game at noon to most of the country. The MetLife blimp was hovering over downtown Kansas City on Wednesday.
During the Chiefs more illustrious years, it was a frequent site to see blimps flying over the Kansas City skyline.

2004-2014 Celebrating 10yrs. of service to our Heroes
HEROES IN ACTION Military Outreach is based out of Toledo, Ohio. We are committed to supporting our service members, veterans and their families. The marines, soldiers, airmen, sailors, and coast guard have a mission - to PROTECT our country, our families, and our children. Freedom is not free. We also have a mission - to SUPPORT, communicate, send care packages overseas, and to encourage the families here at home. We want every man and woman serving our country to know they are not forgotten, that they are loved, and that there are people who care. The first care packages were shipped in December 2004 and have been shipped every month since then. We have shipped thousands of boxes overseas as well as several in state to the wounded or those on special days who are without family. When a service member is added to our list, whether in or out of the states, they are supported by letters and/or a monthly care package. Our outreach has touched thousands of men and women serving our country. Heroes in Action also is a support for the families with personal needs, housing and auto repairs, food baskets, newborn baskets, blankets for the wounded and whatever else we are able to do. We work with many other organizations to help educate, prepare and equip families with benefit information and emotional issues that may occur with service members. We do the unique. All we do and accomplish is done by HIA volunteers. Heroes In Action is solely supported by monetary/cash and snack donations. Heroes in Action is a 501(c)(3) charitable organization. Checks may be sent to Heroes in Action, P O Box 352046, Toledo, OH 43635-2046 or PayPal is available for your monetary donations and HIA events. Snack/item donations can be dropped off at the Genesis Village Complex, 2429 South Reynolds Road, beginning Monday, January 7 (our new location) Toledo, OH 43614. Use the side entrance behind Bob Evans. Ring the bell and someone will accommodate you. We have not physically moved all operations to the Genesis Complex at this time, so we are still temporarily packing at Calvary, 5025 Glendale Avenue, Toledo, Ohio 43614.

Girls' Generation-only bootsDecember 27, 2011
The boots worn by Girls' Generation during their performances of follow-up song 'Mr.Taxi' have recently garnered a lot of attention. These boots were custom made accordingly to match the costumes worn by the girls during 'Mr.Taxi' stages.
One aspect about the boots that becomes the hot talking point among netizens is the boots' smaller-than-usual circumference. Just by taking a glance at the white boots, the word 'slim' would come to mind immediately.
A representative of the maker of the boots, shoe brand Perche said, "The boots that we made based on Girls' Generation's sizes are more than 5cm thinner and more than 5cm longer than the ordinary boots. These boots will not fit people with ordinary bodies".

In terms of key personalities in Jamestown, no personality was stronger than Joey Howlett's.
He was the heart and soul of the community. Everyone loved him. Howlett was killed in September, when flood waters poured in to Jamestown. He was inside his home at the time when a mudslide gushed down the mountain behind his property.
"It was kind of sloshing back and forth down the canyon and just boom! Right in to his bedroom," said Anne Breiler, a friend of Howlett's who lives in Jamestown.
Howlett was the only one home at the time, aside from his cat, Shadow. For the better part of 13 years, Shadow was Howlett's best friend. The pair were similar.
"She's just like Joey. He was a love sponge. But quite independent," Breiler said.
Evangelist Franklin Graham prayed on a sidewalk outside the Pentagon Thursday after his invitation to a prayer service inside was withdrawn because of comments that insulted people of other religions. More>>

THANK YOU FIREFIGHTERS -- for rescuing 100 people in a terrifying fire that broke out in the middle of the night.
This was a high-density building on a very busy street, and ladders were required for most rescues....the firefighters got elderly and disabled people out safely. One fatality, but it could have been much worse for the residents AND for the firefighters!
The firefighters earned their salary.

Hey All, My name is Camille and I am coming to you from the beautiful Pacific Northwest.
I work in the substance abuse field and have been asked to demystify some common beliefs or misunderstandings about addiction and offer some resources to you on the subject. My goal is to assist you in finding compassion and understanding for those who suffer from addiction, and to learn appropriate ways to cope with addiction. Just to clarify, I am referring to all substance abuse addiction in this post, both legal and illegal drugs that are abused in order to get high (alcohol, tobacco, marijuana, prescription medications, inhalants, opiates, methamphetamine, benzodiazepines, food, sex, etc.)
The first myth I'd like to debunk is that addiction only happens to someone from a specific demographic description. Regardless of gender, race, creed, ethnicity, or lifestyle choice, anyone can suffer from addiction. Addiction can be attributed to a variety sources present in someone's life. Such as genetics, mental illness, early use of drugs, social environment, and childhood trauma could all be contributing factors to a person becoming an addict. The point to understand here is that addiction is real, and nobody is immune.
The second myth I'd like to expose here is that addiction is simply the lack of will by the abuser. This is absolutely false. Addiction is a brain disease, and there is research to prove it. This type of brain disease has to do with the stimulation of neurotransmitters in the brain, and the overwhelming craving of that stimulation. Once someone uses a substance, their brain chemistry is altered permanently. And depending on their drug of choice, they may become addicted after the first time they use. From that point forward, their brain is constantly demanding another hit of the stimulating substance. Everything associated with use of that substance (ie: environment, people, smells, emotional or biological triggers and other strong feelings) make cravings for the drug stronger. A person who is addicted to substances has to fight cravings all day long, especially if they are living in the environment where they previously used and abused substances.
Addiction is similar to other diseases such as heart disease. Both disrupt the normal healthy functioning of the underlying organ, have serious harmful consequences, are preventable, treatable, and if left untreated, can last a lifetime.*
This doesn't mean that someone cannot recover from addiction. What it does mean is that it is not as simple as just quitting the drug. This is important to understand when you or someone you know is trying to recover from addiction. It is not easy, and relapse is possible. However, recovery is possible too, with a lot of hard work and support from others.
And perhaps in my next post we can discuss how to avoid addiction through preventative measures with the younger generations.
There are a ton of online resources for this subject. My suggestion is to visit the following sites and find what is useful for you. Many of these sites will send you free information, and you may also find resources in your local communities:
- Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA)
- Center for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC)
- National Clearinghouse for Alcohol and Drug Information
- The HBO Addiction Project provides realistic and useful information along with their documentary films.

Extra points lift Mac over Newberg
Sep 26, 2013 | 1 Comment
By Robert Husseman
Of the News-Register
Six times, the McMinnville volleyball team faced match point against rival Newberg in the pivotal fifth game.
Six times, the Grizzlies staved it off.
The crowd at McMinnville High School reached a fever pitch and the student section rushed the court -- after postgame handshakes, of course -- as the Grizzlies outlasted the Tigers, 25-22, 21-25, 22-25, 25-18, 20-18, on Thursday night.
"It was exciting," McMinnville coach Ben Patterson said. "We're pretty fortunate to come out on the winning end tonight."
Madison Vicknair led the Grizzlies (6-2 Class 6A Pacific Conference) with 16 kills, four blocks, and three service aces. Mac junior Taylor Petersen added eight kills and five blocks to the winning effort.
Rachel Thompson paced Newberg (7-1 Pacific Conference) with 17 kills and four blocks, and Tigers outside hitter Taylor Burger recorded eight kills.

The following solution works if you have a CD or DVD burner or some other way to backup large amounts of data.
If your Biblesoft CDs and downloads are already installed, skip to Step 3.
- Install all of your Biblesoft CDs.
- Install any reference works you have downloaded from Biblesoft websites. This includes both the free reference works and those you paid to download.
- Run PC Study Bible to verify that it is working properly.
- Close PC Study Bible.
- Burn to CD (we'll call this your Consolidated CD) a copy of your RefWorks folder. This RefWorks folder contains the reference works from all of your installed Biblesoft CDs, as well as all your installed free and paid internet downloads. By default, this folder is c:\Program Files\Biblesoft\PC Study Bible 3.0{or 4}\RefWorks. If your CD burning process supports compression, use it, because the RefWorks folder can reach sizes in the neighborhood of 1 Gigabyte, whereas the typical CD holds about 700 Megabytes (0.7 Gigabytes). Because there are so many different kinds of CD-burning software, Biblesoft does not provide technical support on this step.
- To reinstall in the future, install your highest version Reference Library CD. For example, if you have a Complete Reference Library 4.0 and a Complete Reference Library 4.1, use the 4.1.
- Look through your remaining CDs for the one CD with the highest version later (or after) the version of the Reference Library CD you used. For example, if you installed a Complete Reference Library 4.1 in Step 6, and you also have these CDs:
-- Registration Bonus 4.1A
-- PC Study Bible Version 4.2B Update With Revised Data
-- Wuest's Word Studies 4.2F-2
-- My Heart -- Christ's Home 4.2F
then install the Wuest's Word Studies 4.2F-2.
- Run PC Study Bible to verify that it is working, then close it.
- Copy all the files from the Consolidated CD(s) you burned, into your RefWorks folder. (Of course, if you compressed the files onto the CD, then they will need to be uncompressed as you pull them off the CD.) Whenever you are asked that a file already exists and do you want to replace it, answer No (but if the file is called Default.J4L, answer Yes). This question may occur 60+ times.
- Run PC Study Bible. You should see all of your reference works.
- Close PC Study Bible.
- Download the latest version. If you have a connection to the internet that is faster than dial-up, click here to download the latest version of PC Study Bible. If you do not have a faster-than-dial-up connection to the internet and your highest version 4 on a CD is less than 4.2, see KB697 to request a replacement/upgrade CD for a small fee.
