A letter from the National Evangelical Synod of Syria and Lebanon
Office of the General Secretary
September 2, 2013
Dear Friends in the PC(USA):
We deeply are grateful for your prophetic stand against all kinds of violence in Syria and your condemnation of the use of chemical attacks no matter who was the user.
We here at the National Evangelical Synod of Syria and Lebanon suffer with all who have been affected by the tragedy in Syria for almost three years now.
We strongly condemn the use of chemical attacks and all kinds of violence that have caused immense suffering, death of thousands, displacement of millions and destruction of civilization.
We urge the international powers to refrain from the use of power against Syria as any strike from the USA or any other power will only multiply the suffering and the human destruction. We appeal to all who are able, by the name of God love, to help bring violence to an end. Stop financing, arming and sending foreign groups to fight in Syria—help the Syrians to come together and together build a new Syria.
We appeal for all who are concerned not to jump to any actions before really finding the truth about the situation in Syria—and what happened in 2003 must be a lesson for all. Creating untruthful scenarios that cause destruction of human dignity and livelihood of people is a sin before God.
We appeal for help to stop violence and help bring about peace and social justice—violence only breathes violence, and justice enhances life. Help the Syrians have life, life in its abundance.
This is what we want to convey to the U.S. Congress.
Blessed are the peacemakers.
Rev. Fadi Dagher
General Secretary of the National Evangelical Synod of Syria and Lebanon.

Tactical Considerations for Residential Sprinkler Activations
Sprinklers in single and multi-family dwellings require several duties to take place on the fireground. Since human beings have learned to extinguish fires by using water and began to form bucket brigades to shuttle water from a water source to a...
When responding to this type of development thoughts of "conflagrations" and other severe fires of the past come to mind. If this type of "retro" development becomes mainstream, modern residential building codes must address the importance of residential sprinkler systems and the advantages to having these types of systems used as a direct component of construction. Other forms of fire resistive elements must be installed but the residential sprinklers should be the main focus of construction.
NFPA 13-D and 13-R Residential Sprinkler Systems should be viewed as the "first responder" in residential construction. The application of water on fires at or slightly above incipient phase could save countless lives and property. Even with water damage losses factored in, sprinklers could save insurance companies unknown amounts of money.
Fire department operations and tactics must be revisited to include residential fire sprinklers. Firefighters must understand that when attacking a fire in a sprinklered residential structure, tactics similar to those employed in sprinklered commercial buildings are applicable. Fire containment and control must be achieved before sprinklers are shut down. A special precaution when shutting down a domestic water supply to a sprinklered structure involves the use of a single control valve arranged to shut off both the domestic system and the sprinkler system. This valve arrangement can be utilized for systems with common sprinkler/domestic water supplies. Fire units turning off utilities to a structure could mistakenly contribute to fire growth and endanger interior crews if this type of valve configuration is used to supply a sprinkler system. This problem reinforces the need for proper pre-planning to be conducted in residential sprinklered structures.
Differences in the design, piping, and valves of residential sprinkler systems are important areas of concern and must be understood. Traditional NFPA 13 Fire Sprinkler Systems are designed with the concept of "property conservation." The design method of residential fire sprinkler systems utilizes the concept of "life safety," The differences between these design methods are emphasized in the installation of the types of heads and the required locations of heads. In NFPA 13 installations, all areas of the building are required to be sprinklered with no exceptions being granted by the code. Examples of this include: interior construction creating an obstruction of more than four feet in width, rack storage units, machine and ovens, spray booths, and in some instances exterior overhangs. Sprinkler heads used in these types of systems are UL Listed Standard Orifice Heads, Extra Large Orifice and Early Suppression Fast Response (ESFR) Heads. Types of systems installed are wet, dry, pre-action, ESFR and Deluge Systems.
Residential fire sprinkler systems utilize the concept of "life safety." The design of these systems requires the installation of heads in inhabitable spaces of a structure. Exceptions are given to this rule in bathrooms with an area that does not exceed 55 square feet. Sprinklers are not required in clothes closets, linen closets, and pantries that do not exceed 24 square feet. With this exception, walls and ceilings, including walls and ceilings behind fixtures, must be made of noncombustible or limited-combustible materials that provide a 15-minute thermal barrier.
Sprinkler heads are not required in attics, penthouse equipment rooms, elevator machine rooms, concealed spaces dedicated exclusively to and containing only dwelling unit ventilation equipment, crawl spaces, floor/ceiling spaces, elevator shafts, and other concealed spaces that are not used or intended for living purposes or storage and do not contain fuel-fired equipment. Heads are also not required in any porches, balconies, corridors, and stairs that are open and attached to the building.
These systems may use metallic or non-metallic pipe and components designed for working pressures of not less than 175 psi with an 1 1/2-inch fire department connection (FDC). In some rare cases, due to inaccessibility by the fire department or single-story construction, a FDC may not be installed on the system). Fire Departments must either require 2 1/2-inch connections to be installed during plan review on systems or modify company tactics to include 1 1/2-inch hose to be used as supply line in sprinkler support operations. When pumping a residential system, pump pressures must be adjusted downward to offset lower system operating pressures. Excessive pump pressures may damage the system and, at a worst-case scenario, cause piping to burst rendering the system inoperative. Pre-planning once again will identify the correct pump pressures needed to properly support these systems. Valve sizes incorporated are smaller and require minimal effort to shut off utilities. Some common components utilized in both NFPA 13 and 13-R/D systems include among others, system and supply pressure gauges, inspector test valves and main drain valves.

Greenville police said they arrested a man accused of driving drunk and then hitting a pedestrian and a telephone pole.
The accident happened just after 11:10 a.m. Monday at Queen Street and Perry Avenue.
Police said they arrived to find that a car had hit a pedestrian, then the pole.
Greenville Police Department spokesman Johnathan Bragg said the driver, 63-year-old Richard Campbell, was given several field sobriety tests and was arrested on charges of driving under the influence and driving under suspension.
The pedestrian was taken to the hospital with minor injuries, Bragg said.

Town Square
Council supports idea for 25 cent bag fee
Original post made on Jan 28, 2009

I am not sure I understand the arbitrary nature of a $0.25 fee?
I think that on one hand, if we really wanted to recover clean up costs we would have a study for the cost needed based on estimated reduction and income. On the other hand If we wanted to simply ban them because they are bad for the environment we should just openly say it and ban them.
As I see the environmental aspect of it, there are so many pieces of single use packaging film littered or going to landfill beyond shopping bags we are being the ostrich with its head in the sand thinking this will address anything other than a tax revenue. For example there other products being over looked that fall in to the same litter and landfill category that are greater in volume: bags that contain potting soil or mulch; the wrappers around a case of soda or bottled water; that plastic they wrap around boxes that are shipped in trucks; and so many other things that we see on the road that I doubt we will really make much of a difference in plastic waste with any version of a shopping bag law.
Maybe we have just green washed ourselves in to thinking we will make a difference because we really just want to feel good more than make a just difference.
on Jan 28, 2009 at 9:30 pm
Mountain View can't even synchronize its traffic lights for maximum fuel efficiency. Even New York City can do that. This fee is just another load of bovine excrement raising money for overpaid bureaucratic personnel out of the pockets of people who actually work for a living and have to compete in the real world.
on Jan 28, 2009 at 10:02 pm
The City Council's job is to run the city. If at the end of the day, they have some extra time, they can go save the world. That's fine, but they have to get their job done first. Have they fixed the sidewalks on El Camino? Have all the street lights work? Have enough police to deal with the rising murder rate?
No, no, and no, but the City Council is protecting the environment by raising taxes. Isn't that lovely.

PHILADELPHIA --- Ryan Howard hopes to begin an official rehab assignment in the next week.
Howard said as much in a podcast posted on Thursday on his blog, ryanhoward6.com. The All-Star first baseman said he sets smaller goals for himself, and his current goals include being able to run the bases and play defense comfortably.
Howard, who has not yet played this season after rupturing his left Achilles in the National League Division Series in October, has been in playing in simulated games and facing pitching in Clearwater, Fla. Once a player begins an official rehabilitation assignment, he has 20 days to be activated by the Major League club, barring a setback.
"I'm very optimistic, looking at hopefully being able to start a rehab assignment here, hopefully in the next week or so," Howard said in the podcast. "So then I can actually get back to out playing games and starting to get out there on the field and working my way up to Philadelphia."
General manager Ruben Amaro Jr., in an interview with KYW on Friday, said that Howard has been improving each day and he, too, hopes Howard can start rehab games in the next week.
"He's getting a little bit better and stronger," Amaro told KYW. "He's getting a lot of at-bats in simulated games and such. That's a good sign. He's starting to move around the bases a little bit better each day. Once we get him to as close to 100 percent on the bases as we can get him, we'll probably start an actual official rehab on him."
Victorino given rare opportunity to rest
PHILADELPHIA --- Charlie Manuel kept Shane Victorino out of Friday's lineup for the series opener against the Rays in the hopes that a day off could help the struggling center fielder relax and clear his head.
Victorino, who had played in all 71 games thus far, owns a .252 batting average and a .319 on base percentage, both well below his career averages of .277 and .342. He also has eight home runs and 33 RBIs.
"I want him to relax," Manuel said. "There's a good chance he'll play [on Saturday] and everything. Right now I just kind of want him to see if he can clear his head a little bit. Sometimes an off-day's good for him."
Victorino will be a free agent at the end of the season, but he told the Delaware County Times that playing in a contract year is not affecting him.
"Charlie talked to me about [a day off on Thursday night], he said he might give me a break," Victorino said. "He said 'Shane, I'd like to give you a day off' and that was it. There's no apparent reason. I've played every game. And I'll be ready to go tonight if they need me defensively or pinch-hit, I'll be ready to go. It's just a day for me to get a day off, nothing more than that."
A switch-hitter, Victorino is batting .226 in 208 at-bats from the left side of the plate this season.
"The thing I see him doing, especially on the left side, his stride's real quick, he gets out in front and they take the sting out of his bat," Manuel said. "I don't particularly like sitting him, because when he's hitting good, he gives us a chance to win the game. He's played every day so far, but at the same time, the reason that we're resting him is because he's struggled a little bit from the left side."
Worth noting
In the interview with KYW, Amaro said Roy Halladay, who is on the DL with a right latissimus dorsi strain, is "feeling great." Halladay has been symptom-free in his long-toss program, the general manager added. "He's actually trying to push [head athletic trainer Scott Sheridan] to uptake his bullpens, but we're going to be conservative with him," Amaro told KYW. "There's no reason to rush him back."
Chase Utley (chondromalacia in his left knee) will play in another rehab game on Friday for Class A Clearwater. He will bat third and play second base. He went 0-for-3 as the Threshers' designated hitter on Thursday.
The Rays are playing a regular-season game at Citizens Bank Park on Friday for the first time since Game 5 of the 2008 World Series, when Brad Lidge closed the game by striking out Eric Hinske.

Knowing your risks
No matter where you live, natural hazards exist that could significantly damage or even destroy your home or business. However, the severity and specific types of risks vary considerably by geographic region. For example, wildfires and floods occur in many parts of the United States. A complete evaluation of your specific property location may be the most effective way to determine the true exposure. In addition to natural hazards, this website addresses man-made risks such as interior water-related losses. To obtain a list of the natural hazards that may affect your area, enter your ZIP Code on the map.

The dam had been in the hands of Islamic State militants. The role of US warplanes in the offensive raises questions over mission creep in Iraq.
Iraq's Kurdish forces said Monday they have seized a strategic dam from the self-declared Islamic State (IS) after heavy US air strikes, a victory for the Kurdish peshmerga that may also suggest mission creep for Washington.

Paul Armstrong founded Earthwhile Endeavors, Inc. in 1995 after a chance encounter with three buddies in San Francisco who had developed a natural, effective pet shampoo but didn't know what to do with it. Well, Paul knew a great product when he saw one (as did his cat Miles), and he was determined to share it with pet lovers everywhere. This is how earthbath was born.
From the beginning, earthbath has been developed and manufactured in California with only the safest, finest ingredients from nature. From humble roots and a local following--based on the principles of purity and efficacy--earthbath has grown from four shampoos to a comprehensive line of totally natural shampoos, wipes, spritzes, and grooming foams that are sold and used by conscientious animal lovers across the nation and around the world.
We at earthbath have a genuine love for pets and concern for the environment. These passions are at the heart of everything we do, from the thought we put into our products to our commitment to putting principles on par with profits. From every one of us, thanks for your continued support.

Suicide. It's a seven-letter word that means nothing to most people, though the majority know what it is - the act of intentionally killing yourself. I too never really thought about it, until recently.
Every year my high school has assemblies on topics like drugs, drinking and suicide prevention. Most of us don't listen and don't really care. We think that nothing so terrible can touch us. This attitude makes us feel like we have an invincible shield between us and bad things in life.
I had known the warning signs of suicidal behavior since eighth grade when I memorized them for my health final. Never did I think that I would need to know them for everyday life, but I wish I had remembered them these past few weeks. My friend often has arguments with his parents and when he tells me how frustrated he is, I listen. Just about every teen has problems with their parents so I figured it was no big deal. Wow, was I wrong.
Our English teacher requires us to keep a journal as a year-long project, though he said he would never read them. It would be our private place to vent thoughts and feelings. My friend and I are very close and let each other read entries that we thought were funny or crazy. He had me read one of his entries but never told me where to stop reading. I read the funny part but when I came to a serious part, I learned of his thoughts of taking lots of pills, and I grew more terrified by the second. Then I read that he could never bring himself to follow through with his plans and felt better.
I confronted my friend after reading the entry. He couldn't believe I had discovered these thoughts. At first he was angry, then he got worried.
"Don't tell anyone," he said, and made me promise. I agreed, not thinking. In return I made him promise that he would not carry out his plan. At the time, that seemed like enough for me.
I am a perfect example of what not to do in such a situation. I should have gone to the guidance counselor or school psychologist, but I didn't. I felt that my friend's word was good enough and that I could trust him to make the right decision. Suicidal thoughts should never be taken lightly. You should always take them seriously and tell an adult. Even if you lose your friendship, it's better than losing your friend.
Today was a bad day for my friend and it didn't get any better when he got home. When I saw him tonight, he was crying and very upset. It took me an hour to get the story out of him, perhaps an hour too long. He told the story of his night and the fight with his parents that led to his action. He told me he had made a stupid decision that I would hate him for. I told him I could never hate him and to tell me what he had done.
"I took some pills," he said, and his words hit me like a ton of bricks. My friend had taken a lot of pills, a lot of strong, prescription pills. I asked him how long ago, and he said an hour and a half. I was scared to death. The two of us cried and held each other, neither ready to deal with this mountain that had just been placed in front of us.
I made my friend call his parents, the first responsible thing I had done since this whole ordeal began. When my friend's parents answered, he sobbed out his story. Though angry at first, they were scared too. They came and took him to the hospital where he got his stomach pumped and had to stay overnight. They took his blood work five times to make sure he was going to be okay. For hours I didn't hear from anyone and I can honestly say those were some of the scariest hours of my life.
Now I sit here in my room reliving these events. I am still in shock. My once-invincible shield against bad things has been shattered and I've learned nothing is impossible. The rain is falling steadily outside as I write. The raindrops are like the tears falling from my eyes and the eyes of the angels as we pray for my friend and for everyone who has had to experience something as awful as this.

The Browns signed P Richmond McGee and placed P Reggie Hodges on injured reserve Wednesday.
McGee, 27, has never punted in an NFL game. The Bears, who signed Adam Podlesh from Jacksonville in free agency, released McGee on Monday.
Hodges suffered a torn Achilles tendon in practice Tuesday. Hodges' net average of 39.0 yards in 2010 was a career-high.
Also on Wednesday, the Browns signed undrafted free-agent LBs Archie Donald and Eric Gordon and waived undrafted free-agent LBs Derrick Addai and Alex Wujciak.
The way we see it
New Browns special teams coordinator Chris Tabor is familiar with McGee, having served as Chicago's assistant special teams coach from 2007-09. McGee spent parts of 2009 and '10 with Chicago.

3.98/5 rDev +9.6%
For fans of Australian-style lagers, Kangaroo Love (enjoyed on-tap at the Arundel Mills Du Claw location) is an automatic "Yes!" But I recently shared a Growler of the stuff at a party with a group of folks with a wide range of beer tastes--from macro to micro, light to stout, domestic to import. To a person, all thought KL was marvelous and asked where to find it.
I think the appeal is because, while KL shares some of the distinctively crisp/fruity aroma and flavor of the more familiar Australian macros like (sorry for the comparison) Fosters, it is also much milder, smoother, and somewhat less carbonated--making for a thoroughly wonderful beer you never grow tired of.
All Du Claw products are phenomenal for their range of flavors and their drinkability. It's no wonder this is one of the "regulars" on tap--and one of the first I ask for.

Presented as a pale yellow beer with nice white puffy head. Smell is of a nice sweet maltiness that promises a great taste. The taste if not dissapointing, with a firm sweet maltiness showing through. Mouthfeekl is swett, but not overly so, with a nice clean refreshing taste. A great summer brew.

Let me point out that I'm reviewing for style. This is my least favorite of the DuClaw brews, but they actually do the style better than what they are trying to clone. This is their version of Foster's (they even call it an Australian lager) and it is the beer left on the tap lines for all those macro lovers who won't find any macros on tap at DuClaw. The macro-loving ladies in our group swear by the stuff. Sampled on tap at the Fells location from other folk's pint glasses.
Pours a bright yellow hinted with amber. Generally poured with half a finger of white foam. It disappears to a clingy ring that leaves some very nice lacing.
Smells of sweet malt intermingled with sulphur
Complex in that there are a good amount of malts mixed in with a little bit of hops and a little bit of sulphur. I think they use a little bit of wheat to add some oomph in there. Light, crisp brew that has the right amount of carbonation. It is light on the mouthfeel and also finishes clean, which adds to its drinkability on a hot summer day.

Draft at DuClaw Bowie.
Pours clear straw, thin white fizzy head that settles into a thin ring.
Nose is light, some floral hops and pale malt poke out, but not a lot.
Taste is biscuity pale malt, very light but noticeable hop crispness and a lingering biscuity malt note on the finish.
Mouthfeel is light, crisply carbonated, not too coarse. Refreshing.
Drinkability is really high - this beer has some nice substance to it, but also has some pretty crazy drinkability. Flavorful and refreshing while not at all overbearing. The perfect beer for drinking when you just want to drink it and don't want to think about it. A fine example that goes far towards redeeming a generally underwhelming style.

Tasted at the Alchemy Release Party at the Arundel Mills Location on 5/19/05.
Light yellow golden color with a low ring for the head. Balanced malt grain aroma and flavor with a touch of adjunct character. No hop character stands out. Light bodied, clean, refreshing, and very drinkable.
Not bad for a beginners brewpub beer and much better than their kolsch ever was.

Alcohol Content : 4.7% abv
The Kangaroo Love delivers a clear, light-amber colored body that's capped by a small, rocky head of white foam. Its standard-sized bubbled head holds well after the initial pour, but drops shortly once the tasting begins and leaves only minor spotty lace... all of which is better that the Foster's lager that it's trying to emulate! The aroma is of a lightly honeyish malt with a mild, background sulphur from the lager yeast that lends it a touch of authenticity. The body is medium/light with a very fine and lively carbonation that leaves it's crisp in the mouth. It's quite clean all-around, and the flavor delivers an appropriate touch of lager-like sulphur amidst a light malt with some delicate honey-ish character. Mild, background hop flavors try to peek through but never really make it; and it's very well-balanced with a bent towards the crisp and dry (as it should be). It finishes short, crisp and clean with a light touch of hop bitterness and a touch of drying sulphuric acidity. Very nicely done! It's quite refreshing during the hot summer months without delivering the palate bludgeoning bitterness of a stronger IPA. Crisp and clean! Refreshing and drinkable!

Had this at their Bowie, MD. location. This was served as part of their beer sampler. This was very clear and bright pale straw in color. A crisp, light and flavorful beer. Maybe a step or two above your average light lager beer. Actually, this seemed to be perfect beer for the outdoor table we were sitting at. Sunny and warm, while this beer was crisp and cold. As for the aroma - theres some lemony fresh grains that come through. Surely a session beer, and a refreshing one, too.

I believe the ABV was somewhere around 4.5%-5%. It is an Australian lager. It poured a hazy light golden color. The smell was pretty average. Lots of bread and malt. The taste was very good. Lots of malts upfront then hops then a very creamy finish. Little spicy at the very end. Mouthfeel was nice and clean and crisp. Could definitely have lots of these babies.

Pours bright straw yellow with plenty of clarity. A thick white head slowly descends to a thin cap, and eventually a wisp. Some lacing sticks.
The smell is of some sweet grain with a hint of mild floral notes.
The taste is of sweet grain and honey with vague floral notes. Slightly soapy. Crisp finish.
Light-bodied, smooth, crisp and refreshing. Clean. A fine brew for what it is - will appeal well enough to the "masses" while having enough taste to be an easy-drinker for the craft beer drinkers.

Reviewed from notes.
Pours yellow that is quite clear with visible carbonation bubbles and a white head. The nose is light grain and some mild sweetness. There is a bit of sugar in the taste with grain and straw. Very light body with good carbonation. Drinks fairly well and is easy to put down.

On tap at the Fells Point location. This beer is an American version of Fosters.
Appearance: clear yellow in color with a 1/2" head that disappears immediately. No lacing develops. Nice carbonation levels.
Smell: little grassy aroma, little else.
Taste: pretty decent for a Foster's knock-off. Grainy malt, soft bitterness, grass, and a hint of fruit sweetness make up a rather dull be easily quaffable beer.
Mouthfeel: very crisp from start to finish. Clean and refreshing. Light in body.
Drinkability: very easy at a mere 4.5% alcohol. Personally I don't enjoy the style but this was easy to drink but very boring.

Served in a shaker glass.
A- Very clear golden yellow, carbination was very evident. Topped off by a one finger bubbly white head that faded pretty quick. Not much in the way of lacing.
S- Biscuity malt and kind of grainy.
T- Sweet grain, very light floral notes. Kind of reminded me of Fosters or Tooheys New.
M- Light, a little too carbinated for me.
D- I would take this over a B/M/C but thats not saying much. Wont be trying this one again.

I thought this was okay for low-fat and healthy. It wasn't spectacular, but it beats those frozen steamable green beans.

The Texans re-signed P Matt Turk to a one-year contract, The Houston Chronicle reported Friday morning.
Turk set a career-high for net average in 2009, averaging 39.4 yards on 67 punts. One of the NFL's oldest players, Turk will turn 42 in June, but coming off a season in which he helped Houston allow just 104 punt-return yards, the Texans moved to keep him in the fold.
Turk played for the Redskins (1995-99), Dolphins (2000-05) and Rams (2006) before joining Houston in 2007.

Doctors in Singapore battled Thursday, December 27, to save the life of an Indian student who sustained horrific injuries in a gang-rape after she was dramatically airlifted overnight from a hospital in New Delhi.
As India's prime minister vowed that the attackers of the 23-year-old would face swift justice, medics at Singapore's Mount Elizabeth Hospital described her condition in the intensive care unit as "extremely critical".
"She is being examined and the hospital is working with the Indian High Commission (embassy)," the hospital added in a brief statement.
The Indian government, which is paying for the woman's treatment, approved the decision to transfer her from Delhi's Safdarjung Hospital where she had been treated since the December 16 assault on a bus in the centre of the capital.

It is one of the most glamorous events of the week. The 42 Miss Mississippi contestants on parade in Downtown Vicksburg. But the young women will be the first to tell you they are much more than gowns, sequins and tiaras.
The annual parade of contestants is more than tradition for the contestants and supporters of Miss Mississippi. It is another chance for pageant watchers to pick out the contestant who they believe should win the title. For the contestants it is an opportunity to touch the crowd, to see family and friends and it provides some down time to relax and enjoy the moment. Most of their days are filled with hours of rehearsals and interviews with the judges. But these young women are on a mission.
"I've actually already worked on some products for Aveda and for our military in the cosmetic lab at Southern Miss", said Kimberly Page, Miss Deep South.
"I've met with our Governor, Phil Bryant, and he has endorsed me as an official spokesperson for human trafficking awareness in Mississippi", Taylor Townsend, Miss Mississippi College said.
Most of them have spent nearly a year preparing for this week. Others have had just a few months to work on the pageant between graduations, college schedules, and family obligations.
"With senior year going on I was like yeah, I'm a senior, I'm gonna have fun, I'm gonna enjoy. After graduation I was like on my goodness I have less than a month before Miss Mississippi", said Ariel Cheng, Miss Madison.
"I was kind of like get right and get tight real soon Kennitra! But its exciting", Kennitra Thompson, Miss Metro Jackson said.
There are seven contestants who are students at Mississippi State University, 10 from Ole Miss, 3 from William Carey University, four from USM, one from Jackson State University, one from Alcorn, and three from Mississippi College.
The last 3 young women to win the Miss Mississippi crown have been from Mississippi State, including Mary Margaret Roark the reigning Miss Mississippi.

Menno: This year the American Metal Blade label will celebrate its 25th anniversary and has therefore decided to re-release some of the most successful albums in its history. The almighty 'Vile' from the same mighty Cannibal Corpse is up first; this CD will be packaged in a nice sleeve and extended with no less than eighteen live DVD tracks. All this will see the light of day in June of this year. Somewhere in our extensive archive a nostalgic story concerning the music of 'Vile' can be found so the only thing left for me to say is that the entire record has been remastered and thus fits the present-day demands.
Sadly this can not be said for the DVD-part of the package; when inserted in your DVD slot a text appears warning the viewers that the video material does not quite meet up with those demands. The band gives the enormous intensity of the chosen shows as the reason. I wouldn't dare doubt that these shows were intensive; the band plays its ass off and the crowd goes mad with moshpits and crowdsurfing. The only problem is that this intensity is very hard to bring to the viewers when it's shot with handycam-bootleg quality (unless you're completely hammered of course)
Fact is that this package is utterly brutal and it's something Cannibal Corpse and Metal Blade can be proud of. The audio part of course is pure genius but I think it's a shame that there is so little effort put in the video material. My guess is that Metal Blade had some material lying around in their archives and used those to keep the costs down in stead of giving the fans something they should expect in 2007. Nevertheless, anyone who's into Cannibal Corpse or just death metal in general should have no doubt when they find this lying around in the shelves.

MADISON (WKOW) -- A new state health initiative called Music and Memory is using iPods to help patients with Alzheimer's recall memories and improve their overall health.
"We're pulling from their past – music that made them feel happy or made them joyful and triggers some good memories," St. Mary's Care Center's resident care coordinator Heather Stapelmann said.
Part of the national Music and Memory program, the Wisconsin Department of Health Services has provided 100 nursing homes each with 15 iPods for their residents with Alzheimer's or dementia. Nursing home staffers are to work with residents and family members to create playlists personal to each resident.
"The music has a connection to the emotion system. It's sort of a back door to the mind, and that's why people come alive. They feel good, start talking. Sometimes it's a shock to the staff that's been around them for months and years when someone was saying nothing," Music and Memory founder Dan Cohen said.
Keith and Dorothy Fredrickson have dementia and Alzheimer's, respectively. They've been married for nearly 60 years, and will receive an iPod shuffle with a splitter so they can listen to music together.
"We always liked country music," Dorothy said, with Keith specifying, "George Jones, yup!"
When asked what the first song they danced to at their wedding was, neither can recall. Though they do remember dancing in a place they call Rainbow Gardens in Spring Green.
"I'm hoping that with a little bit of research, I can find out what they played at that Rainbow Garden," director of activities Carmela Mulroe said.
Mulroe received the iPods at the end of January, so it's too early to tell what the effects of Music and Memory will be in Wisconsin. However, there have been promising results in other states.
Some nursing homes in New York have reduced their use of anti-psychotic drugs from 38 percent of people with Alzheimer's to 13 percent, according to Cohen, who also says music has helped patient's perception of pain by about 20 percent.
Improved overall health will help nursing home workers, who say daily tasks occupy the majority of their time with patients
"There are only so many hours in the day and so many people to administer to the patients. Even when we're engaged with someone else, we can still be reaching them through music," Stapelmann said.
Cohen says it's the program is failsafe. "The downside would be that it doesn't work, but the upside would be a transformative quality of life for someone with Alzheimer's," he said, adding that patients in the program have felt calmer when listening to music that speaks to them. On the flip side, music can also encourage them to move more, thereby helping to improve their motor function.
"We want them to feel hopeful, energized, and then also peace and calm. Music is one of the most medicinal things that we can use," Mulroe said.
Mulroe says that she and her staff are currently building playlists for patients such as the Fredricksons. And when they're ready, "I hope that for that moment in time, they're together and all of a sudden they're back in Rainbow Gardens, they're 20, and they're so love. It'll never go away. Even though our bodies fail us, that part of our spirit never dies."

Duncan, Orr highlight latest round of cuts
Infielders expected to start season with Triple-A Syracuse
VIERA, Fla. -- In the latest round of roster cuts for the Nationals, first baseman Chris Duncan and infielder Pete Orr were re-assigned to Minor League camp and are expected to start the season at Triple-A Syracuse, while right-hander Shairon Martis was optioned to Syracuse on Monday.
With the moves, the Nationals currently have 36 players in big league camp.
Duncan, who signed a Minor League contract this past offseason, played in 12 exhibition games for Washington and was 5-for-32 (.156) with seven RBIs. He believes he is close to being the hitter that hit .293 with 22 home runs and 43 RBIs with the Cardinals in 2006.
The past two years, Duncan lost his swing, hitting a combined 11 homers because of injuries.
"If I can go down there, get at-bats and find my swing, the Nationals could find a spot for me on this team," Duncan said. "I don't think I found my swing yet. I'm a lot closer than I was last year. I put in a lot of work. Hopefully it comes around. I know what I'm capable of when I get hot."
Martis was hit hard, giving up eight runs in 5 1/3 innings. He was told by pitching coach Steve McCatty to improve his mechanics. If he returns to the Majors, Martis could work out of the bullpen.
"McCatty talked about a more consistent release point," manager Jim Riggleman said. "Martis just needs to progress. As much as anything, the numbers don't allow him to be with us right now. I'm confident that not only can he come up here and start, but pitch out of the bullpen."
Orr was fighting to be a backup in the big leagues, but he went 4-for-20 (.200) with no RBIs. Riggleman felt Orr put too much pressure on himself.
"We are very confident that Pete could help us," Riggleman said. "Pete is a good player. I don't think Pete showed his best here. I think he will be the first to tell you that. In trying to win a job, he didn't let himself relax and be the player he could be."

Making your own clothes doesn't have to be difficult or daunting.
For my July New Year's Resolution project I wanted to make myself a new dress that could be worn during the daytime, but that could also be dressed up with heals for evening wear.
This easy pillowcase dress looks adorable with pretty fabrics. Plus, it is super simple to put together, even if you have not sewn an outfit before.
Did your award ceremony after-party invite get lost in the mail like mine? Never fear!
Continuing my quest to sew one closet essential every month in 2012, I decided to make myself some sweet pajamas using the gorgeous Nighty Night pajama pattern by Favorite Things.
I have been making myself one wardrobe item for each month of 2012 and for my May project I wanted to make myself a new sweatshirt that would be cosy to wear during the spring evenings I spend watching my son's baseball games.
My new year's sewing resolution continues this month with a pattern by Sewaholic.
Create this easy party dress and she will be ready for any summer occasion!
Here's an earth-friendly project that smells good, too!
New Year's Resolution: 12 months of children's handmade clothes.
Flip flops have their time and place, but these ankle-tie sandals are easy to make and create a stunning look!
Matching father and son aprons are beyond cute and are easy to make. Sew up a set for the men - big and small - in your life!
I love that my kids want to craft with me! And even better when it is something useful, not to mention super cute, like t-shirts.
This quick and easy lunch sack can be made in a snap. The bag is much stronger than a standard paper bag yet its single layer of fabric keeps this project very simple.
I was very excited to participate in a sewing challenge to create something for $15 at Wal-Mart.
Fiskars and Duck Tape are teaming up to make the world smarter and more colorful together.
Add beautiful mood lighting at outdoor gatherings. Why not craft up a set to use this summer.

Backpacker Magazine – August 2008
We'll show you how to adapt you favorite bar food for the trail: Mushroom-Asiago Veggie Burgers, Spicy Sweet Potato Fries, Hot Spinach & Artichoke Dip, and Toasted Tortilla Chips.
Spicy Sweet Potato Fries
2-3 medium sweet potatoes
Olive or canola oil (optional)
Seasonings such as onion powder, Italian seasoning, and/or seasoning salt
At Home
Place potatoes in paper bag.
In Camp
Peel sweet potatoes, then cut into 2-inch strips. Coat a large skillet with oil. In batches, add sweet potatoes and sprinkle with sea salt and seasonings. Fry until browned on both sides, about 10-15 minutes. Remove to a plate and top with additional seasonings, if desired. Serves 4-6.
Note: To bake fries, wrap them in foil along with the seasonings and place the packet directly on hot coals; omit the oil.
It's not only a dietary choice.
Perhaps you forgot that meat does not keep as well as vegetables?
One vegetarian meal will not kill you. Trust me.
I also agree.where is the meat.
Last I heard backpacking was not a veg. only thing
made this on a trip last summer and it was a HIT. so good, i made it again when i was at home in real kitchen, too. there's something to be said about gooey artichoke dip after a long hike. all that was missing was an ice cold beer.
Anyone tried the Bangers & Mash from Packit Gourmet? Delicious, easy to make and chock full of sausage! Now, that�s my idea of trail food!
I agree. Lets get some meat on the menu.
I have been a reading Packpacker Mag for years and consider it my camping bible. But what's up with you guys in the food department, are you all vegetarians? 90% of the receipies have no meat. Where's the beef (chicken, fish, etc.)?

A man accused of violating probation after selling meth out of a Scottsbluff restaurant is back in court.
34-year–old Brian Ross was arraigned Friday in district county court for allegedly violating the terms of his probation.
Ross received four years of probation in February 2013 for selling methamphetamine out of Scottsbluff restaurant 'Taco Town'.
In a plea deal, Ross began working with the state as a criminal informant to make more meth–related arrests.
But during one of the trials, Ross was caught buying a gram of methamphetamine and landed back in jail with additional charges filed against him.
In the following trial, Ross allegedly tried to bribe a man who was selected to be a juror in the trial against him.
Ross will have a probable cause hearing on motion to revoke probation on January 16th a 3 p.m. to determine is there's enough evidence to move forward with a trial.

So much has happened to Washington Dulles International Airport since President John F. Kennedy dedicated it in 1962.
The airport, which is located on 12,000 acres in Chantilly, recently experienced a multi-million dollar expansion, which will bring a new Metrorail system, a fourth runway, expanded gates and buildings and a new airport traffic control tower. About 23 million travelers visit Dulles Airport annually, and the eventual addition of a metro line will introduce it to millions of potential flyers.
The main terminal is unmistakable (architect Eero Saarinen called it the best building he'd ever designed) and as such has appeared in movies like "Airport," "Die Hard II" and "Body of Lies."

YOUNGSTOWN - Vice President Joe Biden is speaking at the Covelli Centre.
Biden follows former President Bill Clinton at a rally to re-elect President Barack Obama and himself to another four years.
Earlier, U.S. Rep. Tim Ryan gave an impassioned speech urging the crowd to help deliver Ohio for the incumbent commander-in-chief, likening the race to a football game in which the Democrat is on "the 10-yard-line," and driving to the end zone.
The afternoon kicked off with Harry Meshel, a former state senator and World War II veteran leading the crowd in the Pledge of Allegiance.
Obama was scheduled to be at the arena, but is in Washington, D.C., ahead of Hurricane Sandy.
The attendance was estimated at 4,800.

LOS ANGELES (AP) — It's good news for 25 singers on "American Idol" — not just 24.
After the "Hollywood Week" and Las Vegas performance rounds, "Idol" judges Randy Jackson, Jennifer Lopez and Steven Tyler narrowed the field from 42 contestants to 24 semifinalists on Wednesday's installment. They apparently cut too many.
At the end of the episode, "Idol" host Ryan Seacrest revealed that "the judges felt compelled to reinstate another guy." He says either Jermaine Jones, Johnny Keyser, Richie Law or David Leathers Jr. would be among the male semifinalists.
The top 13 men will perform live next Tuesday, and the top 12 women will take the stage live Wednesday. Viewer votes will determine which singers will be eliminated Thursday.

New Music: Keke Wyatt f/ Kelly Price and Tweet – 'Mirror'
Keke Wyatt takes a look in the "Mirror" on her soul-stirring duet with Kelly Price and Tweet from her new album Unbelievable! (June 14). The songbirds sing about falling back into a bad relationship over the guitar-laced melody. "We were so close to getting over him/ Now you're tellin' me we're going back again," sings a conflicted Keke. "How could you betray me and take my heart back through that door?" asks Tweet. Listen as they reflect on their heartache.

A Rose of Knowledge
When it comes to catching tuna in Northwest Providence Channel, Freeport-based angler Pete Rose figured out the game decades ago. A longtime rod-and-reel commercial fisherman, Rose thinks these tuna are here year-round and has caught them in every month. The problem, he says, is that the sooty terns - which red-flag tuna whereabouts - migrate farther south beginning in September or October. And without these birds, it's difficult to locate fish from a distance. However, come March, the sooty terns migrate back and - along with frigates, skimmers and brown boobies - converge on the small fish pushed to the surface by tuna, such as juvenile bar jacks, runners, mackerel scad and squid. These birds are the sign anglers seek when searching for tuna.
Rose recognizes that these fish move around, though he is unsure exactly where they come from or go to. He cites good to excellent tuna fishing off Andros pretty much year-round, as well as north of Walker's Cay and near Hole in the Wall, at the eastern mouth of the Channel. This could mean the fish remain within Bahamian waters. His best score, 32 yellowfins, occurred in June one day, but he has had many excellent outings throughout summer, fall and even winter. There is a marked slowdown, however, between September and December. And when questioned on prime moon phases, Rose shrugs and claims he has caught fish with the moon up, during the dark side and at all stages in between.
Peak time is nearly always late afternoon, though blitzes do occur very early in the morning, usually right around and just after sunrise. Early in the season (March through early June), tuna blitzes can materialize throughout the day. As a bonus, dolphin are around then to spice up the action. Even early on, and especially later in the season, that period from 3 p.m. to sundown is undeniably the best. And if you don't want to chase tuna all day, consider bottomfishing until the afternoon, then hunting for tuna.
Speed and Vision
Locating birds is paramount to finding tuna. Set forth without a powerful radar or, at the very least, a quality pair of binoculars, and you're wasting time and fuel. Also, speed becomes an issue, as you'll want to beat any other boats to the birds. I set my 6 kW radar, paired with a 5-foot open-array antenna, to an outer range of six miles, with the gain set as high as I can without noise interference. We'll run into the general tuna areas and study the radar. Birds appear as a faint scratch or glitch on the screen if there are only a few and a solid red mass when they're thick. Keep your eyes on that screen as the antenna makes a few sweeps, and if the return stays visible, it indicates birds.
When we spot birds, be they one or six miles away, and seas permit, I'll run wide-open for them: 50-plus mph gets you there not only fast but often ahead of any other boat. A single boat doesn't tend to put the fish down, but two or three boats working the same school does.
Another luxury of a fast boat is returning to the dock by early evening, sometimes with just enough light for a safe journey. Keep in mind that these fish rally late in the afternoon and you'll likely stick with them until nearly sundown. In our case, we were 42 miles from Bimini Sands. With our two yellowfins in the box and no more chum, we picked up and made it to the marina in less than an hour, just as the sun kissed the horizon.

Oxford United's Langan reveals painful past in autobiography
10:40am Friday 14th September 2012 in Sport By David Pritchard, Chief Sports Reporter covering Oxford United. Follow us on twitter: @oxfordmailoufc. Call me on 01865 425458
IT IS a tired cliché to compare players' careers to a roller-coaster, but it is an appropriate description considering the dizzy highs and desperate lows experienced by Dave Langan.
The Irishman will be remembered by Oxford United supporters of a certain generation.
As a wholehearted full-back he scored the goal which sealed promotion to the Division 1 in 1984/85 and was part of the Milk Cup-winning side a year later.
But as he details in a brutally honest autobiography, due to be released today, there have also been dark times.
As well as the nightmare of a career plagued by serious injuries and being dropped by the Republic of Ireland just before Euro '88, Langan reveals problems in his personal life – many of which had been kept secret from even close family members.
Despite the difficulties, compiling Running Through Walls (DB Publishers, £12.99) has been a worthwhile experience.
"Lots of it was hard because I went through some tough times, still am, but you have to try and remember every single detail," he said.
"It was tough looking back on my drinking and the operations, but I think if you're going to do it you've got to be honest and get it all off your chest.
"It is a great relief when you actually get it all out there because you've held it in for so many years.
"My sister has read the book and she was in tears, a lot of people don't know what I went through and I think they were quite shocked by what they read."
The legacy of a tough career remains and Langan is getting to grips with his first knee replacement. His other knee is due to be operated on next year.
The 55-year-old rarely watches football nowadays, frustrated by the amount of play-acting.
He retains a soft spot for Oxford United, where he enjoyed the best moments of his club career.
He said: "It was my favourite club because it was the only time we won something.
"When you do that it means a lot to the supporters. It was just a very enjoyable time in my life.
"I loved the Oxford people, they were good to me."
The ties between Langan and the club were strengthened last year, when a benefit match was shared with fellow United star Joey Beauchamp.
He said: "I couldn't believe it was given to us – I thought it was a tremendous gesture from the club and it's typical of them.
"They are allowing us to have a book signing before the Gillingham match (on October 6), so once again they've been very kind."

Here are the references for the talk I am doing today at AILA in Brisbane: "Time and work on science Twitter." Greg Myers
Shona Whyte's insight:
I'm having a little trouble parsing Myers' title, but some of the references to work on social media for science look worth chasing up.
"Appsmashing requires skill and experience with the apps utilized, and relies for example on creating products in one app and storing them on the device's photoroll or in the cloud, and then developing that product through another app to produce a more elaborate product."
This paper investigates second language interaction at the interactive whiteboard (IWB). Video-recorded lessons of eleven French and German teachers of EFL were analysed for use of IWB features but also language interaction, using a 4-level scale (drill, display, simulation and communication) to capture learners' opportunities to use English.

Shona Whyte's insight:
Interesting interview on links among language learner autonomy, teacher autonomy, research and teacher development.
As digital technologies continue to radically change the social acts of meaning making in which we engage, boundaries once taken for granted between semiotic consumption and production and among various modes and medialities have begun to break down, pushing applied linguists and scholars of language pedagogy to reconsider conceptualizations of literacy in teaching and learning language and cultures. If new literacies afford new forms of meaning making, then they also demand new understandings of the ways in which we acquire and evaluate knowledge and communicate. For more, check out a brief slideshow on (new) digital L2 (multi)literac(y/ies).a hybrid symposium of research and practice
