We did, indeed, have a wonderful time and your personal generosity of spirit added a very special touch to our visit.
Kind regards
Ron and Jane - October 2013
Hi there
Been meaning to email and say thanks for another great weekend and thanks again to Chris for the fantastic opportunity to enjoy the Huia suite ! It was a lovely gesture and you can be assured we always give and have given great feedback on our County Hotel experiences both via word of mouth both locally and otherwise.
Thanks again from both John and Margo to all the team at the County Hotel. October 2013.
Thank you,
I will say it was the nicest place we stayed at in New Zealand. Your staff were terrific, the food was also very good. I have already recommended your hotel to people who have asked me where to go when in NZ.
Once again thank you.
Mr. J Sutherland, Australia - May 2013
Dear Fiona,
I just wanted to extend to you and all the team at the County Hotel a heartfelt THANK YOU for making a very special, humble man feel like royalty for a day.
I mentioned to you when making the reservation for Dad's 60th that he is a very special man, and that I desperately wanted this day to be perfect.
In my wildest dreams I never imagined you all could have gone so out of your way to make it "Magical!"
From the minute Mum and Dad walked in the door the magic began to unfold.
I wish to extend a huge thank you to the kind gentleman who upgraded them to such a spectacular room, without hesitation when their room was taken, and for the warm welcome of Birthday Bubbles.
I was extraordinarily impressed when you came to greet Dad in Churchill's and wish him a Happy Birthday ... that was so thoughtful and kind of you.
And the night just got better from there ...
A big thank you goes out to Liesel who took such great care of them during dinner. They 'raved' about the personable service they received which makes all the difference. It's so easy for a perfect day to be spoiled by a waitperson who is 'just doing their job.' Liesel went out of her way to make Mum and Dad feel special.
And another big thank you goes out to the warm and generous Chef who made a point of reaching their table and extending "Happy Birthday" greetings, not just personally, but with a Banana Cake as well. I can't tell you how much that meant to both of them. To be acknowledged and made to feel so special.
And finally, if all that wasn't spectacular enough ... how on earth did you know that Lochin Ora is their favorite liqueur?
It was all too fabulous ... more than I could ever have hoped for.
So, from the bottom of my heart, I want to thank you all one more time, for making a very special, humble man, feel like royalty for a day.
I could never have dreamed it all would have been so memorable.
Erica & Catalin - March 2012
"Just like to say what an excellent meal, service, and standard of presentation we enjoyed last Sunday night 25th Oct 2009 at your restaurant. Well done to everyone involved"
Mr. & Mrs. Graham, Gisbourne, NZ
My partner and I were shouted by the hotel to dinner bed and breakfast on the 26th Sep 2009. We wish to thank you for a great stay. The staff were friendly and helpful. We can't include Michael in this as we did not use the bar but I can assure you that his service has been impeccable when I have used the bar on other occasions! Thanks once again!"
Napier, NZ
"Just a quick note to say THANK YOU so much for making us so welcome during our much needed weekend away. The hotel is stunning and the room was gorgeous, but it was the warm welcome from Kay at reception and professional, attentive service from Mike in Churchill's bar that made staying at the County Hotel unforgettable. We hope to be back to see you all again soon."
N & L Johnson, Auckland, NZ – June 2009
"I'm writing to confirm accommodation arrangements between CMNZ and the County Hotel for our 2009 Celebrity Season, and to give you the initial reservations that we would like to make this year. 2008 was a very exciting and busy year for us and I'm happy to report that we received excellent feedback from our artists concerning the quality and comfort that they experienced while staying with you."
Richard Hardie, Operations Manager, Chamber Music New Zealand
This is just a short note to say thank you for making our stay on the 06/08/09 an event to remember. We were on a touring holiday of New Zealand but we wanted to celebrate or wedding anniversary in style. My wife is very much into Art Deco so your hotel was the obvious answer. We were not disappointed. We asked for a room you gave us a suite and we celebrated our anniversary in style with an excellent meal in your restaurant together with fine wines. Your staff especially Paul could not do enough for us during our stay. Once again thank you very much."
Mr & Mrs Hayward, Kent, England Aug 2009

1. Giant Holes in the Ground
A favorite children's song declared that "there's a hole in the bottom of the sea." In the nation of Russia, there isn't a hole in the sea, but at least three giant holes in the ground have been discovered in the northern part of the country above the Arctic Circle. One is 195 feet across and about 300 feet deep; another is 13 feet across and 200 to 325 feet deep; and a third is about 50 feet across (with a depth not yet determined). Two of the holes are in an area that is rich in natural gas and inhabited by reindeer herders. Scientists are unsure what caused the holes, but one theory suggests they could have been caused by underground explosions of gas caused by global warning. Scientists study the Earth to better understand changes that occur or how conditions developed. With family or friends, use the newspaper or Internet to find and read a story about a natural area. Think like a scientist and write a paragraph describing something you would like to study in the area, based on what you learned in the story.
Common Core State Standards: Reading closely what a text says explicitly and to make logical inferences from it; citing specific textual evidence when writing or speaking to support conclusions.
2. World's Only Panda Triplets
A set of panda triplets was born this summer at the Chimelong wildlife park in the Asian nation of China. They're the only panda triplets in the world, according to park officials in the city of Guangzhou (also known as Canton). That's if they survive. Infant pandas have a high death rate, and while Chimelong officials call the birth of the triplets a "miracle," they say it's too soon for them to be declared out of the woods for survival. Pandas, which have black and white fur, are popular with animal lovers, but are endangered in the wild. Only about 1,600 live in natural habitats, making zoo breeding programs important for the survival of the species. Park officials in China are excited to show off their new panda triplets. Draw a series of comic strips showing panda triplets growing up. Give them fun names for added interest! Discuss your strips with family and friends.
Common Core State Standards: Using drawings or visual displays when appropriate to enhance the development of main ideas or points; engaging effectively in a range of collaborative discussions.
3. Dolls on the Doorstep
Mothers in San Clemente, California, were mystified not long ago to find porcelain dolls on their doorsteps — and the dolls seemed to resemble little girls living in each house. Mothers who were "very unsettled" by the dolls notified police. The mystery, however, turned out to be neither a prank, as some suspected, or a threat of any kind. The Orange County Sheriff's Department reported that the dolls were left in a gesture of "good will" by someone whose daughter no longer wanted them. People often do things to promote good will or happiness in other people. In the newspaper, find a story about someone doing something to make others happy. Write a paragraph describing what the person did, and why it made others happy.
Common Core State Standards: Writing informative/explanatory texts to examine a topic and convey ideas and information clearly; citing specific textual evidence when writing or speaking to support conclusions.
4. Spacecraft Catches Up to Comet
After traveling 10 years and 4 billion miles, the European Space Agency's Rosetta spacecraft has arrived at its destination — a comet speeding through space toward the sun of our solar system. Rosetta will make the first extended close examination of a comet in our solar system. In November, a landing craft from Rosetta will drop onto the comet and harpoon itself to the surface. Rosetta is named for the Rosetta Stone, which was crucial in decoding Egyptian hieroglyphics writing, and scientists hope the spacecraft will offer important clues as to how the solar system came together 4.5 billion years ago. Space missions seek to learn more about comets, planets and other bodies in the solar system. With the newspaper or the website www.nasa.gov, find a story about a space mission. Write a letter to the editor explaining why this mission is important to scientists.
Common Core State Standards: Writing opinion pieces on topics or texts, supporting a point of view with reasons and information; citing specific textual evidence when writing or speaking to support conclusions.
5. Fruits, Veggies = Longer Life
Eating five servings of fruits and vegetables a day can help us live longer, according to an analysis of 16 studies covering 833,234 people. Scientists from the U.S. and the Asian nation of China note that opinions differ over just how many servings to recommend, but they agree that overall the "average intake across the world is very low." Reporting in the BMJ medical journal, the researchers call attention to growing evidence of a link between eating fruits and vegetables and reduced chances for death from such diseases as cancer and heart disease. Food ads in the newspaper feature many fruits and vegetables. Find five that appeal to you and design an ad for the newspaper to encourage kids your age to eat them!
Common Core State Standards: Integrating information presented in different media or formats to develop a coherent understanding of a topic; conducting short research projects that build knowledge about a topic.

text: History of Music Festivals A History of Music Festivals by Laura Marie Meyers 4/08/14 20 Reactions 42 Shares Print 20 8 13 1 0 Music festivals are nothing new, but the popularity of events like Bonnaroo and Glastonbury has grown even larger in recent years. The alternative, countercultural spirit of festivals has evolved into more mainstream, all-encompassing events. And although 1969's Woodstock may be the most talked-about music festival in history, it wasn't the first of its kind. Pinpointing the origins of these events depends largely on your definition of "music festival," but we're taking a look at some of the most popular, history-making festivals from the past century. Just in time for Coachella's kickoff this weekend, take a look at this brief timeline of music festivals through the years. The Newport Jazz Festival What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 In 1954, the Newport Jazz Festival in Newport, RI, marked America's first annual jazz festival. That year, the event brought more than 11,000 people to the East Coast resort town for a mix of academic panels and live performances. Over the years, iconic acts like Billie Holiday, Louis Armstrong, Ella Fitzgerald, and Miles Davis hit the stage, and although the festival moved to New York for a five-year span in the '70s, it returned in 1981 to Rhode Island, where it still takes place each year. 1 / 10 The Newport Folk Festival What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 Founded by George Wein, the same man behind the jazz version, the Newport Folk Festival is known for bringing major folk stars like Joan Baez and Bob Dylan into the national spotlight. Commonly linked to the blues revival of the 1960s, the festival featured Johnny Cash and Howlin' Wolf during that decade, then added reggae, rock, and indie artists in the '80s and '90s. 2 / 10 The Monterey International Pop Festival What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 The 1967 Monterey International Pop Festival is known as the first-ever major rock festival. Held at the Monterey County Fairgrounds in Monterey, CA, the three-day event was planned in just six weeks. Hoping to create a lineup with a variety of genres from eras past, present, and future, the Board of Governors — which included music icons like Mick Jagger and Paul McCartney — agreed that all acts would be treated the same, with first-class travel and accommodations. The festival featured some of the biggest names in the industry: Otis Redding, The Who, Simon & Garfunkel, The Mamas and the Papas, Grateful Dead, Janis Joplin, and Jimi Hendrix, who famously set his guitar on fire while playing "Wild Thing." 3 / 10 Woodstock What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 Held on a dairy farm in Bethel, NY, 1969's Woodstock Festival was called An Aquarian Exposition. The three-day event featured 32 acts including Grateful Dead, Canned Heat, The Who, Jimi Hendrix, and Janis Joplin. Although organizers planned for around 50,000 people, around 200,000 tickets were sold, and when over 500,000 people showed up, they were forced to remove the fence and turn it into a free concert. As the most famous festival of all time, it's left a legacy that captures the free-love spirit of the decade. A 1970 documentary called Woodstock captured the epic concert weekend, and revival festivals took place in '79, '89, '94, '99, and 2009. That same year, 40 years after the original festival, Ang Lee's Taking Woodstock brought a comic spin to the event. 4 / 10 Isle of Wight Festival What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 Located on the Isle of Wight in England, the original festival took place in 1968. The event grew rapidly in the following years, featuring big-name performers like Bob Dylan, The Who, Jimi Hendrix, Chicago, The Doors, and Joni Mitchell. After the popular 1970 festival, though, Parliament passed an act that required a license for gatherings of more than 5,000 people. In 2002, the festival returned — this time at Newport's Seaclose Park — and in the past decade, it's brought artists like David Bowie, Paul McCartney, The Rolling Stones, and Coldplay to the stage. 6 / 10 Glastonbury Festival What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 Originally called the Pilton Festival, the first version of the event took place near Pilton, England, in 1970. In its second year, it became known as the Glastonbury Festival, and David Bowie took to the Pyramid Stage, a smaller version of the Great Pyramid of Giza that's become linked to the festival. More so than other popular festivals, Glastonbury is known for incorporating several types of art: dance, poetry, theater, and more. Although it started small, the festival now sells out in hours, and the 2011 festival — with Beyoncé and Coldplay among the headliners — broke TV viewing records for the BBC. 6 / 10 Lollapalooza What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 Jane's Addiction singer Perry Farrell first planned out the Lollapalooza festival as a farewell touring festival for his band. The first tour in 1991 featured mostly alternative rock along with a variety of other genres, with performers like Ice T, Nine Inch Nails, and nonmusical vendors for art, politics, and the environment. The tour ran through 1997 and returned in 2003, but it wasn't very successful, so in 2005, Farrell decided to turn it into a destination festival at Chicago's Grant Park. 7 / 10 Coachella What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 Held in the desert setting of California's Coachella Valley, the first Coachella music festival took place in 1999. With a lineup that included Beck, Jurassic 5, and Rage Against the Machine, the original event attracted about 10,000 people across two days. In 2012, the festival sold out in hours, featuring big-name headliners like Radiohead, The Black Keys, Dr. Dre, and Snoop Dogg — plus a hologram projection of Tupac and surprise appearances by Eminem, Rihanna, Usher, and more. This year's big headliners include OutKast, Arcade Fire, and Pharrell. 8 / 10 Bonnaroo What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 The four-day Bonnaroo music and arts festival in Manchester, TN, first took place in 2002 with a focus on folk rock — and even without any traditional advertising, it sold out in two weeks. Popular performers included Ben Harper, John Butler Trio, and Norah Jones. Since its inception, it's been considered an eco-friendly festival, promoting sustainable, eco-conscious practices. As for performers, Bonnaroo has evolved into a major event with a range of artists, plus an "entertainment village" with an arcade, movies, a theater, a comedy club, a beer festival, and a silent disco. 9 / 10 Austin City Limits What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 Named after the popular PBS concert series, Austin City Limits is a three-day music festival that first hit the scene in 2002. The music-driven TV show originally featured country and folk artists from Texas, but it's evolved to include a variety of genres, and the festival has followed suit. The 2002 lineup included artists like Ryan Adams, Shawn Colvin, Los Lobos, and Patty Griffin. As the festival has grown larger and more popular, big names like The White Stripes and Dave Matthews have made appearances. In 2013, the headliners were Depeche Mode, The Cure, Muse, Kings of Leon, and Vampire Weekend. 11 / 10 20 8 13 1 0 Back to Homepage Comments Read More NostalgiaMusic FestivalsHistoryMusic Music Get Ready For Your Big Day With This Prewedding Playlist 25 minutes ago Let's All Relive Britney and *NSYNC's 1999 VMAs Performance 3 hours ago 14 "Sexy" Music Video Moments That Would Be Weird in Real Life 15 hours ago Early 2000s Songs That Remind You of House Party Hookups 1 day ago The Absolute Best Dance Moments From Taylor Swift's "Shake It Off" 1 day ago 16 Bootylicious Moments From Nicki Minaj's New Video 2 days ago nostalgia Let's All Relive Britney and *NSYNC's 1999 VMAs Performance 3 hours ago Beyoncé's Road to the MTV Vanguard Award Is Paved With Epic VMA Moments 12 hours ago 14 "Sexy" Music Video Moments That Would Be Weird in Real Life 15 hours ago 50 Signs You're Addicted to Pop Culture 1 day ago Early 2000s Songs That Remind You of House Party Hookups 1 day ago Have a Bomb.Com '90s Bachelorette Bash! 2 days ago Get a Personalized Celebrity & Entertainment Newsletter!

the common form of ancient books. The Hebrew word rendered "roll" or "volume" is _meghillah_, found in Ezra 6:2; Ps. 40:7; Jer. 36:2, 6, 23, 28, 29; Ezek. 2:9; 3:1-3; Zech. 5:1, 2. "Rolls" (Chald. pl. of sephar, corresponding to Heb. sepher) in Ezra 6:1 is rendered in the Revised Version "archives." In the New Testament the word "volume" (Heb. 10:7; R.V., "roll") occurs as the rendering of the Greek kephalis, meaning the head or top of the stick or cylinder on which the manuscript was rolled, and hence the manuscript itself.

Mixtapes - Ordinary Silence
Reviewed by:
Ordinary Silence
Record Label: No Sleep Records
Release Date: June 25th 2013
A little under a year ago, Ohio pop-punk four-piece Mixtapes released debut record on No Sleep Records
Even On the Worst Nights
, and while it was my first full length (and even just any material) from the band, I was mildly impressed. It wasnt anything special, but thats the whole point of the band, if you really think about it. Mixtapes isnt out to change pop-punk, let alone change the world. Theyre just four friends who love playing pop-punk songs about their every day life. Theyre average people who do average things, and thats what they talk about. They talk about real life. Their music may not be perfect, and it may not extremely unique and groundbreaking, but does it need to be? Well, no, it doesnt. Fellow pop-punk band and Ohio natives Light Years released their debut record a couple of weeks ago (called
I Wont Hold This Against You
, for those of you who are interested), and that record really stuck a chord with me, because while the lyrics were simplistic, they worked. They were all about growing up, and trying to accept things such as growing up, and even death. It was a very real album, and so is this. Albeit, its not as deep and personal, but its still real. Its just about everyday life, and nothing more. Its not meant to be intellectual or deep, but its still meant to be relatable. Thats what Mixtapes has going for them. Their lyrics and their overall sound is very relatable and easy to understand. Thats what drove me to them in the first place. That, and the dual vocal dynamic of Ryan Rockwell and Maura Weaver. Aside from dual vocalists, theyre male and female, which is really interesting. Its a unique dynamic, so even if their overall sound isnt too unique, theres one unique aspect about them.
Other than that, though, theyve never quite been one of my favorite pop-punk bands, but Ive never disliked them, either. Im happy to listen to them, and theyre a very fun band, but Ive just never loved them enough to keep going back constantly. One thing that has bothered me about them, and it may just be a nitpick on my part, but their records can have a lot of songs on them. Not necessarily be lengthy in terms of the overall length of the record, but just having a lot of songs, so it feels like its longer than what it really is. For instance,
Even On the Worst Nights
was 38 minutes, but had 16 songs.
Ordinary Silence
is only 37 minutes, and has 14 songs. This album feels much more concise than the former, because there arent as many. Granted, its only two less, but its still something. Even so, it bothered me, just because have that many songs on a record can be too much, and if youre not careful, you might miss a song or two. While the record itself may only be 36 minutes,
Ordinary Silence
does suffer from the same thing that
Even On the Worst Nights
did, which was droning on after awhile. The record was only about 38 minutes, as I mentioned, but it seemed to drag on awhile, because of its tracklisting. The songs were all enjoyable, albeit some of them didnt do anything for me, but as a whole, it felt rather long. The songs were all short, but the record itself felt much longer than it needed to be. I did say that
Ordinary Silence
is only 14 songs long, which makes a bit of a difference, but its not much. It still suffers from the same thing, but its not as extreme here. Even then, thats something to easily overlook. The music itself, though, is quite impressive. Its a step up from
Even On the Worst Nights
, even if they havent done much different. The dual vocals are still there, the relatable lyrics are still there in full force, and the short pop-punk jams are still there, too. Its a step up from their previous record, but it still does fall into the generic category more often than not. Some of the songs are great, but others are rather forgettable, even if they are enjoyable.
The record begins with Bad Parts, and its a really solid introductory track. While the record does have some generic and rather forgettable songs, the band has improved on their quirky brand of pop-punk that deals everyday life. The instrumentation on this record is great, and Bad Parts is a prime example of that. What I loved about their last record was the combination of indie and pop-punk, and they continue that to a much bigger degree here. Not to mention, there are a lot of catchy hooks, too. Theres a part in the song where Weaver repeats the word no a few times, and its honestly quite catchy. Ive had it stuck in head for the last few days, and I dont know why. Anyway, Bad Parts has a misleading title, because this song is one where theyve taken all of the good parts of their sound, and amplified them. And thats kind of what happens on the record. Its not perfect, and there are some songs that dont do much for me, but its still enjoyable for what it is. In fact, the first three songs are absolutely fantastic. Weaver takes vocal control for the majority of Bad Parts, while Rockwell comes in for the second song, while Weaver does come in occasionally. Ive always enjoyed how neither vocalist overshadows the other. They both have songs where they take lead vocals, but for a majority of the record, they share the songs, and it works perfectly for them. I love hearing them trade lines. Its almost as if theyre having a conversation with the way these lyrics are written, along with the way they sing them. Third track Elevator Days is the first song released the record, and I can see why after hearing it a few times. This is where the very relatable lyrics come in, too, because the song has Weaver and Rockwell talking about theyre trying to improve themselves and get better, and no matter what you, the listener, might be struggling with at the moment, this is a nice little inspiring to say, Hey, Im just trying to get better, and Im doing all that I can. Its simple, but it works.
A little while later, theres a one-two punch of sixth and seventh tracks Gravel (Interlude) and Happy and Poor. The former is an interlude, which is obvious, thanks to the title, but its a really cool little interlude. Its quiet, and goes by rather quick, which works for it. Its a contrast to how the record has been going so far, and this song has one of my favorite lines on the entire record, which goes, Sometimes Im just happy that Im alive. I dont know what it is about that lyric, but its perfect. The latter track is another one of my favorite tracks, mainly for its lyrics. Happy and Poor deals with just that; being happy, even though you may not have much money. As for the last half of the record, it still holds up, just as well as the first half. One song that sticks out is ninth track You Look Like Springtime, which is a rather slow track. Thats why it sticks out. A majority of the record is fast, aggressive pop-punk, but this song slows things down slightly. Its also the longest song on the record, at a little over three and a half minutes. The only other song that really grabs my attention is the closing track, Be the Speak That You Change About. Again, its the lyrics that really suck me in, because this song is a jab at bands that sell out, and only do things for money. Its become a recent trend to call out musicians for being awful people, even though the musicians calling them out are just as awful (Im looking at you, Attila). But Mixtapes arent quite doing that. Theyre not calling anyone specifically, but just saying, We dont like that, and wed rather have a small dedicated group of fans, rather than selling out stadiums. Its a valid point to make, even today, so its a nice closing song. The record itself is quite solid, even though it can be rather generic at times. The lyrics are very relatable, even if they are simple. And the best things about this record are Weaver and Rockwells vocals. They may not be great vocalists, but their vocals together are unique and enjoyable to hear. All in all, its a very fun and relatable pop-punk record thats great for the summer.

Daily Dispatches From The Global Scene
Is that Abbey Lee Kershaw, wrestling (above)? Well, to be specific, it's Brazilian Jiu Jitsu she's doing. Kershaw, along with Antonia Campbell Hughes, Susie Bick, Phyllis Wang, and Olympia Campbell, was enlisted by designer Bella Freud and the BAFTA award-winning director Martina Amati to star in their short film, Submission, which made its first public debut in London this week, with the likes of Kate Moss in the audience.
"The theme is using the strength of your opponent to vanquish them," Freud tells Style.com. "If you use this in your life, you will pay attention and it will serve you in the long run."
The other key to winning? Since clothes are armor too, a killer wardrobe by Freud should serve you well. For her Fall 2011 collection, the designer found inspiration in the sole—Christian Louboutin's, that is. Of her assortment of brightly colored merino wool offerings, Freud says, "The shoe images are all Christian's special drawings that he did for me to use." She continued, "I called the collection Fetish because of the world that shoes inhabit and the obsession they inspire."
Here, Style.com shares the exclusive video.

A frightening accident Monday afternoon in Panama City Beach. Witnesses tell News 13 two teenage girls were rushed to the hospital after their parasail detached from the boat pulling it. They landed in a near-by condominium parking lot.
The Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission is investigating the accident. It happened about 4:00 p.m. at The Commodore Condominium on Thomas Drive just West of St. Andrews State Park.
FWC officers have been working since the accident happened taking pictures, collecting evidence, and talking to a lot of witnesses.
"It was traumatic. It was hard. I mean it's hard to watch, something you'll never forget," said Doug Mador, a resident of The Commodore Condominium.
He and dozens of witnesses watched helplessly from the condo as a parasail carrying two riders detached from the boat that was pulling it.
"When the storm came up earlier, the parasail broke loose. There were two girls parasailing, and they broke loose," said Mador.
Other witnesses said they were watching a storm far off into the Gulf of Mexico when they saw the parasail separate from the boat. The wind then picked it up and started spinning uncontrollably before hitting a beach-view balcony on the 13th floor.
"I saw them just going out of control, first hit the hotel, and then they grabbed the rail, and then of course it brought them up, came over the top," said Jake Hood, who is on vacation with his family and friends.
Hood and others watched everything from The Commodore parking lot. They said the parasail came over the condo. The wind then pulled it into a neighboring complex and into power lines lining the road.
"When they got closer to the ground the parachute just dropped and then that car, pretty big impact," said Hood.
The parasail landed among a group of cars in the condo's parking lot. One SUV type vehicle had damage to the roof and windshield.
Witnesses said many were quick to react and even praised the fast arrival of firefighters and first responders. As of Monday evening, there isn't any update on the two parasailer's condition.
Multiple witnesses tell News 13 at least two parasailers are taken to the hospital after winds broke the cable from the boat that was pulling them.
The accident happened at the Commodore Condominiums. That's where witnesses tell us ambulances responded and transported two teenage girls.
Witnesses tell us a storm broke the cable on the parasail causing it to detach from the boat that was pulling it. They also tell News 13 what appeared to be two teenage girls were attached to the parasail.
They say the girls hit a balcony on the condo, got caught in power lines and then hit several cars in the parking lot. They were transported to the hospital from the Commodore Condominiums parking lot.
The Florida Fish and Wildlife Commission is investigating but is not releasing any details at this time. The condition of the girls is unknown. We will bring you more details as soon as they are released.

Layout and Yardage
Located at 711 County Line Road, Blank has some of the most unique features in Central Iowa. Blank first opened in 1971 as a nine hole golf course and expanded to 18 holes in 1985. Only one of the original nine holes still remains, but it has been improved with a beautiful pond and sand traps. The total yardage is listed at 6700 yards, but depending on the tee placement, it can play somewhat longer. Annually there are over 40,000 rounds of golf played at Blank.
The course offers a formidable challenge, especially on the front nine. A lot of water and sand traps come in to play, adding to the course's difficulty. There are 30 sand traps and 10 water holes. The sand traps affect 14 holes with the 8th hole considered to be the most difficult. On the 8th hole, a pond lies to the left side of the fairway with trees on the right, which requires accurate shots just to make par. Hills play big factors on holes 11 and 12 where zoo animals often hang their heads over the fence.
Blank has implemented a "no mow" rule for much of their rough where stray shots may get lost in the high grass. The fairways are USGA approved ranging between 25 and 35 yards in width. The greens are always in excellent condition. Blank has been adding trees over the course of the decade, making it a more interesting course to play. There are plans to add 40 trees per year for the next five years.
The Chiodo family has been running this course for many years, and there are currently three professionals on staff to aid in the USGA approved teaching station. Blank features a full practice range and pro shop with a complete line of golf equipment. The clubhouse provides a snack bar and banquet room that holds up to 200 people. The banquet facility can be rented out for parties and meetings and offers a full menu to choose from. Please call the pro shop at (515) 285-0864 for more information regarding banquets.

The golf course is open for sledding and also cross country skiing from sunrise to sunset whenever the ground is uniformly frozen and there's a minimum of four inches of snow pack on the hills. This standard assures that sledding does not cause costly damage to the golf course turf.
New this year the Waveland's Clubhouse will be open from 10:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. for food and beverages.
Layout and Yardage
Waveland Golf Course celebrates 100 years in 2001! It is the oldest municipal golf course west of the Mississippi. This 18 hole course was built in 1901 and has a traditional layout. Waveland, probably the nicest municipal course in the state of Iowa, is located at 4908 University Avenue in Des Moines.
The feature that sets Waveland apart from the other two Des Moines public courses is the incredible amount of slope. The entire course is built on wooded hillsides. The trees are mature, a given for a course of this age. As expected, a golfer needs to be accurate at Waveland. The course isn't overwhelmingly long but continuous play in the trees might make it feel that way. For men, the course measures just over 6500 yards. Even with the difficulty of the course there are still over 40,000 rounds of golf played at Waveland annually.
Many people consider hole number three, sometimes referred to as "The Tunnel", to be the toughest at Waveland. There are trees and water to the right of the tee and a deep valley between you and the green. A golfer must deal with water a second time before reaching the green, guarded by trees on both sides.
The greens are in excellent condition, but tend to be on the fast side and are often difficult to read. Sand traps are limited, due to the amount of hills and trees. The fairways are fully irrigated, but the grass sometimes suffers due to the lay of the land. Along with the trees, the rough is relatively high. It often fills the space in between the fairways which may frustrate those with a hook or slice in their shot.
Approximately 70 percent of Waveland golfers utilize one of the course's 72 golf carts which is understandable considering the hilly terrain. Don't get discouraged if you don't master this course right away. Even experienced golfers who attempt this difficult layout for the first time feel frustrated.
The clubhouse is a vintage 1940's red brick building. It has excellent food and a full banquet hall and pro shop. The clubhouse has a calming and pleasant atmosphere, ideal for chatting with fellow golfers or checking out the newest equipment.

Bright Grandview Golf Course, built in 1902, is one of the oldest courses in the county. Bright Grandview is located at 2401 East 29th street. The course is adjacent to Grandview Park.
With its age, Bright Grandview is unique and does not have the look of most modern courses. The layout is quite flat, making it a favorite for older golfers. Trees are the biggest hazard at Bright Grandview, but even with that it is not a difficult course to handle. Although it is not a very long course, Bright Grandview's small to medium size greens pose a challenge to some individuals. The fairways are wide so you can take a full swing and not worry about losing your ball. If your aim or execution is off, it is possible to hit the ball into another fairway and still have a pretty good look at your own pin.
There is one pond at Bright Grandview directly in front of the tee box on the par three, 11th hole. Golfers must attempt to clear the water and get the ball to settle on the green. Hole number six is the most difficult hole at Bright Grandview. It is a long par four with bunkers guarding the green. Even though Bright Grandview is not made up of primarily hills, there are three holes with blind tee shots. The only par five for men is the 17th hole which is uphill.
The course is fully irrigated in its fairways and the greens are in excellent condition. Another plus about Bright Grandview is that it is not as long as the newer courses. This is advantageous for those players who may not have great distance off the tee. The total yardage of the course for men is 5422 and 5191 for ladies. There are a lot of juniors and seniors who play Bright Grandview for this reason. The average round of 18 holes takes around three and a half hours to complete, which is significantly less than other public courses in the area. Often, golfers will have their best scores at this course.
At the club house, there is a full line of golf equipment including balls, clothing, gloves, and shoes. The fees and membership costs are very reasonable for an 18 hole golf course.

Associate Professor
As a teacher and scholar of rhetoric and composition, I am interested in intersections of pedagogy, performance and media. My Writing Intensive English (WINE) courses are also research- and media-intensive, and I am collaborating with colleagues in Raynor Libraries to integrate digital video composing into the curriculum.
When I am not in the classroom, I am likely to be studying the classroom along a historical trajectory that spans from early Jesuit education through contemporary examples at Stanford University, Kenyon College, and Marquette. Of my current projects, the Research Exchange Index (REx) is not only national but also international in scope, and I am active in professional organizations including the Coalition of Women Scholars in the History of Rhetoric and Composition, the Conference on College Composition and Communication, and the Rhetoric Society of America.
Were I to tag my academic work or make an abecedary to represent what is important to me, I would be sure to include these terms: access—books—citizenship and civic rhetorics—digital scholarship—embodied literacies—first-year English—graduate education—histories—inquiry—Jane Rhetor—knowledge transfer—longitudinal writing research—mentoring—new media—old media—popular education—qualitative and quantitative research methods—rhetoric as a teaching tradition—student-centric pedagogies—theater as a site of rhetorical education—undergraduate research—video composing—writing lives—x-ray metaphors for historiography—young scholars—zone of proximal development.

LEE COUNTY, Ga. -- Hundreds of black vultures have taken up residence in one neighborhood.
They're pecking at residents roofs, leaving behind droppings, and simply becoming a nuisance.
The turkey vultures that have slowly moved in over the last several months.
Some of the residents say the vultures creep them out...and they're hesitant to let out small dogs in the back yard.
Georgia's Department of Natural Resources says the birds are federally protected.
Some neighbors have tried shotgun blasts in an effort to scare the birds.
The bird do migrate, leaving neighbors to hope they'll move on sooner rather than later.

text: "Separation of church and state is so basic a part of American values and history that it is hard to realize it is under threat. But it is, profoundly. In The Court and the Cross Frederick Lane explains why: a relentless, determined and successful campaign by the Christian Right to put its supporters on the federal courts, especially the Supreme Court. It is a colorful and compelling book." —Anthony Lewis, author of Freedom for the Thought We Hate: A Biography of the First Amendment"The Court and the Cross is a commendable and sobering account of the scope and significance of the Christian Right's incessant efforts to make a mockery of core constitutional principle. Not only does it elegantly review key Supreme Court cases about religion, it points to the extensive range of social issues the Right is working to get up for examination before our highest court, an increasingly conservative body. If you are not sure that the decisions of the Supreme Court matter much to you in your daily life, read The Court and the Cross and I guarantee you'll be rethinking that position. The Court's erosion of your individual religious freedom and the dictates of your conscience has already begun." —Rev. Barry Lynn, executive director of Americans United for the Separation of Church and State and author of Piety & Politics: The Right-Wing Assault on Religious Freedom"With wit, legal erudition and political acumen, Lane explains exactly why the power to appoint federal judges with lifetime tenure may be a president's most significant legacy and why liberals have been asleep at the switch while conservatives have had their way with the courts. This timely and disturbing book offers a much-needed wakeup call to all who cherish our Constitution and understand that the separation of church and state was America's founding gift to its own citizens and the world." —Susan Jacoby, author of The Age of American Unreason"Nowhere has the religious right's effort to remake America been more successful, or more poorly understood, than in its campaign to control the courts, a campaign rooted in a revisionist history that seeks to write secularism out of the nation's past. Frederick Lane's illuminating, important The Court and the Cross punctures the movement's canards and deftly explains what's at stake. Grounded in a fascinating history, this is compelling, crucial book." —Michelle Goldberg, author of Kingdom Coming: The Rise of Christian Nationalism

Selling Sleep: Sleep Interrupters
March 4, 2013-- Furniture Today,
This is the list of problems that the mattress industry must solve to give all consumers a good night of sleep.
What is striking to us is the relatively small percentage of consumers - just 15% - reporting no problems getting a good night of sleep. That's not an especially good message for an industry that likes to think it delivers a good night of sleep.
One of the big problems here is the disconnect between mattress advertising messages. Consumers are practically crying out for help in getting a better night of sleep. But too many retailers want to sell a cheaper night of sleep rather than a better one.
Applying the findings
This data is of critical importance to retail sales associates as it directs them where to go in recommending sleep sets. Sleeping too hot or cold? Try a bed with phase change materials designed to help you sleep at your ideal temperature. Tossing and turning? Try a bed with encased coils to reduce partner disturbance. Pets or kids keeping you up at night? Try a larger sleep set.
This should be basic blocking and tackling for RSAs. They need to find out what the sleep interrupters are for each consumer they meet, and they should be ready to offer solutions.
There are different ways to meet consumers' mattress needs. Both encased coils and memory foam can be touted for their help in reducing motion transfer, for example. But whatever bedding products retailers favor, they must be ready to bring them into the shopping experience at a moment's notice.
