ANDERSON, Ind. —
"Any freshmen here?"
U.S. Rep. Susan Brooks waited and few hands went up among the crowd of thirty-or-so suit-clad Anderson University students.
"Okay," she said, "Me too."
The freshman congresswoman, R-District 5, met Thursday with faculty and students from honors, the political science department and Center for Public Service, in AU's Olt Student Center. She recounted her own college days and spoke on the importance of tackling student debt, creating new jobs and engaging young adults in policy discussion.
"This generation of college students is more engaged in politics, and, really, they need to be," she said."They need to be educated on all of these problems so they can be prepared."
For example, they need to know that while they're paying into Medicare, Medicaid and social security, "those programs are possibly not going to be there when they go to use them," she said. "We want to preserve those programs for them."
And of course, there's student loan debt, an average of $27,253 in 2012. Brooks said that's an issue they're working on in the education subcommittee. But in the meantime, the burden is increasingly falling on students' shoulders, said AU junior Blake Hall.
"Us as students, we're becoming more self-reliant," he said. "We're the ones paying for school."
And given March's preliminary U.S. unemployment rate of 7.6 percent — 8.7 in Indiana — some of them might not be able to pay right away. Brooks said that's one reason she left Ivy Tech Community College, where she'd served as Senior Vice President and general counsel, for Congress.
Seeing adult Ivy Tech students putting families on hold and going into debt to get their education, she wanted to make sure they'd have "good jobs when they came out," she said.
"Secondly, young students, like you," she said, referencing the collegiate group gathered at AU Thursday. "That you have those job opportunities; that's the American Dream. That's what we've promised you: 'Work hard, and then there will be that future for you.'"
Based on her discussions with employers such as Nestle USA, Brooks suggested students might make themselves more employable by developing their ability to work in teams, their inquisitiveness, love of learning, loyalty, communication skills and punctuality.
She also advised the students to take on internships to boost their resumes, and to "network the heck" out of their families, classmates and professors, because it might lead to a job down the road.
And, despite the debt load many students take on to earn their degrees, Brooks said education is still the key to quality employment.
"If people have a strong education, like you here at AU, it helps them to find their career path, find that job," she said.

Two young entrepreneurs entered a national competition for a chance to grow their business. Now their idea has advanced them to the final round, and they provide a nice boost for the city too.
The two business partners have the chance to win up to $60,000. Their idea is an online recruiting platform that will allow companies looking to hire bilingual candidates in the Midwest.
The online business is called HireBilinquals.com.
Ninety percent of bilingual jobs are for Spanish speakers, according to entrepreneur Gabe Munoz, who also works at the Hispanic Chamber of Commerce.
Knowing that, Munoz and his business partner, Raul Duran, thought there should be a system to test a person's bilingual skills.
Because, as Munoz says, someone can write that they are fluent in Spanish on their resume even when they may not be.
"We saw that there are varying levels of bilingualism. Some people took it in high school, some are native Spanish speakers, and there was no way to determine who was the best fit for your position unless you are able to assess those skills," Munoz said.
They present their business plan to a panel of nationally renowned judges in Chicago this weekend.
MillerCoors Brewing Company will announce who the winner is in March.

How can that be? Most adults go to the doctor when they're legitimately ill, and competent physicians use those appointments as opportunities to offer unrelated preventive services. About three-quarters of the people who get an annual checkup have been to the doctor for some better reason in the previous 12 months. Very few preventive health services are required every year, or even every two years. Even if you go years without seeing a doctor — congratulations, by the way — you can get those services (screenings for various diseases or counseling on smoking cessation or weight loss, for instance) without wasting your time at an annual checkup.
Many primary-care doctors order totally unnecessary procedures during annual exams, squandering patients' time and our health care dollars. Perhaps they just want to make patients feel like they're doing something. Here's where this stops being about the efficiency of the health care system and starts being about you: unnecessary screenings can be hazardous to your health.
People have a hard time viewing screenings as dangerous. Take, for example, the "hands off my mammogram" uprising that followed a 2009 government recommendation that mammograms be started later in life and conducted less frequently. Reactions of this kind appear to be based on two misunderstandings. First, many people overestimate the accuracy of screening exams. The false positive rate for a single screening exam is usually low, but when you take them year after year, it becomes very likely that a healthy patient will receive a false positive. A 2009 study showed that, for many cancer screening tests, a patient who undergoes 14 screenings has more than a 50 percent chance of a false positive.
That leads us to the second misunderstanding. Contrary to popular belief, following up on false positives isn't just expensive and anxiety-inducing — it's dangerous.

Routes Sorted
L to R R to L Alpha
This crack and face route is made for the climber hoping to test their edging and lay-backing skills. Varied in a good way this climb has close to 70 feet of yosemite like flake climbing that takes good pro. At the point you reach two bolts that are close to being side by side you will want to stay left following a bolted left angling flake seam system to a belay under a good sized roof. To finish climb up and right 5.7 or out the incredible 8 ft. roof crack to the left 5.12-. The roof involves only one or two finger locks as a chockstone creates hand holds. You can also single line rap to the anchors and just climb the roof. One the leader gets back to the anchors at the top they can drop the rap end so the second can follow the pitch.
There are some alternatives to get to the start of this route. If you have two ropes single line rappel to the ledge then climb on the second rope. Descend the main gully past the turn to the ledge. As you get near the bottom you will pass a major weakness with double cracks. Down and right of this are some slabs that lead up to a short overhanging section of rock. The second slab down has a nice little arete on the right edge. Two camo painted hangers lead to a left leaning dihedral with a hidden hand crack. This is the start of Unfathomable 12-. Just right of this is a blocky pile. This is the start of Phillipino Fighting Fish 10+. Both of these pitches end on the ledge with two bolts which is the start of Endless Edge and the second pitch of Phillipino Fighting Fish.
Gear and bolts. Take singles up to finger sized cams then double up to red camalots. Be sure and bring some long runners for that section. If you do the roof be sure to have micro cams metolius 00 to the finger sized orange. You may not need them all but it gives you options. I put a red Camelot in the back corner to keep the rope out of the way as well. One bolt over the roof.

Creamy Tiramisu Cheesecake Recipe
The Italian word "tiramisu" means "pick-me-up" and refers to a dessert of ladyfinger sponge cake dipped in coffee, embracing mascarpone cheese. Work that in with cream cheese and you have a guaranteed picker-upper that redefines a classic. —Mrs. Priscilla Gilbert, Indian Harbour Beach, Florida
- 1 tablespoon butter, melted
- 1/3 cup chocolate graham cracker crumbs (about 2 whole crackers)
- 2 tablespoons plus 2 teaspoons instant coffee granules
- 1 tablespoon hot water
- 1/3 cup strong brewed coffee
- 1 teaspoon rum extract
- 1 package (3 ounces) ladyfingers, split
- 4 packages (8 ounces each) cream cheese, softened
- 1-1/3 cups sugar
- 1/3 cup heavy whipping cream
- 1/3 cup sour cream
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 4 eggs, lightly beaten
- Baking cocoa
- Brush bottom of a 9-in. springform pan with butter; sprinkle evenly with cracker crumbs. Place pan on a double thickness of heavy-duty foil (about 18 in. square). Securely wrap foil around pan.
- Dissolve coffee granules in hot water; cool and set aside for filling. Combine brewed coffee and rum extract; brush over flat sides of split ladyfingers. Arrange ladyfingers, rounded sides out, along sides of prepared pan.
- In a large bowl, beat cream cheese and sugar until smooth. Beat in the cream, sour cream, vanilla and dissolved coffee. Add eggs; beat on low speed just until combined. Pour into prepared pan. Place springform pan in a large baking pan; add 1 in. of boiling water to larger pan.
- Bake at 325° for 70-80 minutes or until center is just set and top appears dull. Remove springform pan from water bath; remove foil. Cool cheesecake on a wire rack for 10 minutes; loosen edges from pan with a knife. Cool 1 hour longer. Refrigerate overnight.
- Remove rim from pan. Just before serving, dust cheesecake with cocoa. Yield: 12 servings.

Track and Field travels to Gainesville for Diet Pepsi Invitational on Saturday
Jan. 26, 2007
JACKSONVILLE, Fla. - In preparation to defend its 2006 Atlantic Sun Conference Indoor title, the Jacksonville University track and field team will travel to Gainesville, Fla. to compete in the Diet Pepsi Invitational on Saturday.
This is the Dolphins' final meet before heading to the A-Sun Indoor Track and Field Championship in Johnson City, Tenn. on Feb. 16-17.
"Overall, we are looking to see continued improvement before we prepare for the A-Sun Championship," said JU head coach Ron Grigg. "Specifically, we are looking for some good dash and long jump performances. We hope to gain some clarity in our distance medley relay personnel as well."
Entering the weekend, JU is dominating the A-Sun performance lists by holding the leading marks in nine of the 16 events, including the top four performances in the pentathlon, the top three performances in the 60-meter hurdles and the top two performances in the long jump and 400-meter dash.
At the Razorback Invitational last weekend, sophomore Natasha Harvey set the tone on the first day by placing third in just her second collegiate pentathlon. She picked up first place marks in the long jump (19'8.25") and shot put (35-02) to nearly reach an NCAA qualifying mark of 3,626 points.
Freshman Alyssa Deal placed seventh in the mile on Jan. 20., with a time of 5:10.99 to help JU complete the strong showing.
The first meet on Saturday in the Diet Pepsi Invitational begins at 11 a.m.

Since when does the entire division get credit if one of the teams wins the SB. I don't think any more of the Eagles, Cowboys, Redskins because the NYG won last year? Do you think the Cowboy fans were ecstatic when their rivals won the Lombardi? Seriously doubt it.
What is your point? I was wrong? Ok. You win. I was wrong.
Yeah, I guess we can't really call it "game" anymore. It's been in decline since the second year of Raheem's administration. Things got easy and you started coasting. It's pretty much in the crapper now.

Me and my wife split a bottle,its not a style Iam big on but my wife really enjoys a good witbier. Poured into an oversized wine glass a slight hazed lemonade light yellow with a thinner white head that left some shotty lace as it settles quickly.Mild but pleasant aromas of toasted cereal grain and coriander spice,som lemon-like citrus aromas show thru as well.Flavors are light and flavorful,light lemon and slight phenolic spice with a very nice lingering toasted grain flavor in the aftertaste.Hey for a warm spring day like today this is great,not overly complex by any means but it is a thirst quencher.

Hazy yellow beer. Hints of banana and coriander in the aroma, estery. Taste is clean with a faint hint of clove and coriander in there. Overall, this is a nice clean beer that goes well with hot weather and an urge to drink. It won't knock your socks off, but I'd put it next to a Hoegaarden any day.

This beer has a big, bright white head, merangue head. It sticks around and leaves a good lace. The beer is a light, hazy, yellow color, the color isn't that nice but I'm finding it oddly appealing.
The nose is hefe-like, but mustier. Lemon and banana, faint spice in background, wheat, nutmeg? Reminds me quite a bit of Hoegarrden in taste. It is bright, zippy, yeasty, with a banana undertone. There is a drying, phenolic pfinish. This seems to be one of the most true-to-style US wits I've had I think. It is intensely refreshing and subtle, but I wish there was just a bit moe going on.
Mouthfeel is light and grippy. I could drink gallons of this.

12 oz. bottle poured into a tulip shaped pint glass
It pours very cloudy with a faint yellow beer with fluffy white head that lingers.
The aroma is typical wit, nice medium spice level w/ coriander, a little wheat slickness near the end.
The taste is smooth like it should be, a strong wheat backbone with once again right level of coriander spicing. I'm glad it isn't overly done like many interpretations but at a level i prefer, noticeable but not overbearing.
The mouthfeel is pretty spot on, a slickness from the wheat but not too oily. It has medium carbonation, drinkability is very nice, unoffensive all around nice beer.
The flavor comes together nicely and a surprising enjoyable offering from a brewery where I am usually unimpressed with their normal offerings.

Poured from a bomber into a pint glass.
Pours a pale straw yellow, slightly cloudy, with minimal head. There is a pretty constant, but rather thin, ring of white bubbles that hangs around but no real lacing to speak of.
Aromas are faint, delicate, and a nice spicy wheat maltiness. The usual aromas of the style are present but rather light.
Initial flavors rolling over the tongue are light and spicy, quite spicy actually, but delicate - a lot of delicate spice if that makes sense.
It leans more toward a coriander type of spiciness versus that of something stronger, such as clove. The flavors stay light and tight throughout the experience with some wheat in the finish. The finish is a touch dry, quick, and more of that same spice.
Mouthfeel is rather light and spritely with lots of fine carbonation on the tongue. It really does work with the flavors pretty well and seems to enhance whatever that spicy thing is. Easy drinking but those spice notes would limit my personal consumption to just one or two at time unless I was pairing it with the right food. Overall, a nice brew, enjoyable, and interesting. Definitely worth checking out but probably not for the masses.

Poured into a pint glass with a cloudy, light-yellow "lemonade" appearance and a thin white foam head. Aroma is of fruity esters and coriander. Mouthfeel is light bodied with a lower carbonation level than expected for this style. Soft tasting wheat malt flavor with a hint of lemon. No bitterness to speak of. Drinkability is very good on this one.

12 oz bottle, best by 6/22/07. Pours a cloudy light yellow with some thicker yeasties. The head is white and fizzy and quickly dissipates to a thin film that leaves a little lacing.
The aroma is bananas, musty yeast, and orange peel.
The flavor is wheat and lemony citrus and some spices (clove and banana) in the background. It has a nice zing to it. The mouthfeel is medium to full bodied (thicker than expected) with low carbonation, but more syrupy than watery.
Overall, much better than expected. It's more fruity than a traditional wit, but I like it. It's light but refreshing and pleasant.

12 oz bottle pours a lemonade hued body with a small white head. A few flecks of lace are left on the glass. Restrained aroma features wheat, yeast, white pepper and some coriander. Light bodied with crisp carbonation. Taste is decent enough but unremarkable. Notes of wheat, yeast, citrus, pepper and coriander mingle nicely. Crisp and refreshing, this would be an excellent summer quaffer.

Very, very pale yellow, probably lighter than a macro. White head that dissipates into a ring. Pretty phenolic, coriander, and a slight touch of creamed corn. A little bit of tanginess from the wheat shows up on the tongue, maybe a touch of banana and clove, some coriander is there. Maybe I'm on a Witbier kick, because I really enjoyed this and Bell's 8000 recently, much more so than others seem to. High carbonation with lighter than medium body. I'm surprised I liked this so much, good job New Belgium.

Poured a light yellow color into a pint glass. This beer smells about like you would expect a Belgian White to smell (sorry I can't be more specific). I got some citrus flavors in the beer, but overall, this beer didn't have much in the way of flavor. This would be a great beer to drink on a hot day, but other than that, it was not too appealing to me. Not a bad drink, but nothing special.

Purchased a 6-pack from my favorite establishment. Let it sit in the fridge to get to the right temp overnight and then poured into a tall, glass mug. Thoughts below:
A: Poured a nice yellow color. Good amount of fog for a wheat beer in my opinion. Minimal head but lots of lace for this bottle.
S: Typical beer smell with a hint of orange to me. Very pleasant and a joy to sniff on pouring.
T: Very smooth to drink. Tastes run of the mill at first, but after letting it sit for a moment it got a lot better. Hint of orange and lots of coriander kicked in. Overall very fresh and pleasant to drink over time.
M: Once again, very smooth. Pleasant amount of carbonation and a nice, cool taste. Sits very well.
Overall, a good beer. Not too bad for my first BA review. Will try this one again, and I'm excited to run the New Belgium line. Cheers!

Poured 12oz bottle into Nonic glass.
Nice thick 1" head, died down to 1/2" after a minute. Very interesting color.. Almost looks like "Country Time" Lemonade. Hazy, yet bubbles are apparent - some appear to be in suspension.
Smell is slightly citrus, a little bit of yeasty notes, but not Strong. Taste very interesting. Some citrus yet and also some spice notes. Bottle mentions sour, but I don't find it sour or bitter.
Brew has nice bubbles that make for a pleasant mouth feel. Lower alcohol than what I have been drinking make this a good session brew. Although it is 60º here in Scottsdale right now, I think this beer is better suited for summertime use, when it is 115º at 10PM.

Serving glass: Poured from bottle into Tulip. Best by October 23, 2011.
Appearance: Extremely cloudy and about the palest yellow I have seen (besides for some nasty light macros). Nice frothy head that leaves some light lacing.
Smell: Aroma is dominated by orange with some coriander, clove and wheat.
Taste: Very citrusy, with both the orange peel and lemon peel coming to the forefront. The wheat malt base is also fairly evident, and there is some light banana and clove from the yeast. The clove continues through the finish, along with coriander and peppery hops.
Feel: High carbonation, fairly light body. Finish is quite dry.
Overall: Very refreshing and flavorful Wit. The amount of citrus flavors added is almost too much, but ultimately the wheat, coriander and yeast provide the needed balance.
Note: New Belgium has never been my favorite brewery, as I find most of their American styles to have the same biscuity malt backbone, and even many of their Belgian beers suffer from mouthfeel issues. However, the most recent beers I have had from them (this, Somersault and especially La Folie) have been impressive for their respective styles. So I may need to keep a more open mind.

Seems that everyone who has this on tap really likes it. I had it out of the bottle. Pours clear yellow with a frothy white head. Aroma of rotting wheat and B.O. with a hint of death/old blood. Fortunately, the taste was infinitely better. Light, wheat and citrus flavors up front with a smooth spiciness on the back. I actually switched from drinking this out of a glass to straight from the bottle to avoid the horror of the aroma. It helped.

Smells of heavy coriander and orange peel, with a hint of wheat grain--exactly as the label leads you to expect.
These aromas translate almost exactly onto the tongue, the coriander, orange peel, and wheat grain being the most immediately obvious flavors, and constitute the larger portion of what you might find on the palate, along with a subtle thread of Grape Nuts cereal-like grains. Hops are light, adding only a small bitterness, and medium-heavy carbonation gives the brew a sparkly, slightly effervescent buzz on the tongue.
Overall, this is a good example of what a White beer should be, the bright flavors dancing on the tongue wonderfully. If there is anything negative to be said about this beer, it might be that, while it is a good White beer, its flavors don't seem to offer anything new to the category, and left me instantly making comparisons to Hoegaarden. What we're left with, then, is a truly excellent, average brew, if you can follow that logic.

Poured from 12 oz. bottle into a Sam Adams perfect pint glass.
Appearance: A very cloudy and light yellow with lots of bubbles and a fair amount of particles moving around. Solid two finger white head with good retention and a light amount of lacing. Quite a unique look.
Smell: Aroma of wheat and yeast with some pale malts, coriander spice, banana, clove, lemon, and orange. Hints of grassy hops.
Taste: Wheat and pale malt with a lot of citrus. Lemon peel and orange peel. Good amount of coriander spice. Subtle hints of earthy hops.
Mouthfeel: Light to medium bodied with a high level of carbonation. Very crisp and smooth.
Overall: A pretty good take on a wheat beer. Light but still has a very good burst of citrus.

The beer pours a light straw yellow, opaque with a fine foamy head that dissapates within a minute.
The nose has obvious hints of spice, coriander, some citrus peel and a nice and subtle crisp hop character. The yeast aromas are light and not particularly complex, but fine and enjoyable.
Mouthfeel is light but there is more malt character than what I would have expected, some citrus elements and a pronounced bubblegum taste on the finish. Not offensive, but perhaps not as sophisticated as you would want it.
All in all a good beer, nice flavors and a killer "hot-summer-day-beer" but a little simplex and I would get tired of the candy-like flavors if I drank it too often.

New Belgium's Mothership Wit is a widely available witbier that's a much better alternative to Blue Moon or Shock Top, but it's not nearly as good as other craft offerings.
The beer is the color of hand-squeezed lemonade with about the same amount of haziness. The cap of white foam is constantly replenished from below and yields a spicy, orange and yeasty aroma. For some reason, the yeast phenols were unappealing too me it was just too much. The taste for me was also ruined by the overly assertive yeast character. The orange and coriander was pushed down by the peppery, clovey, and musty yeast. I even tried to decant most of the beer off the yeast, but it was just too much for me. I think that maybe this is a defect of too much yeast during bottling or maybe the beer being shipped too warm and yeast autolysis.
The mouthfeel was light and refreshing with fine carbonation and thin body. I had just one beer and I was done--the yeast for me is too overwhelming.

Very cloudy and dark yellow, big head, big carbonation, small bubbles, no lace. Smells of all kinds of stuff. Lemon, coriander, sage, vanilla, cinammon.
Flavor, very pronounced. All the aroma comes out, vanilla and cinammon though, much more muted than everything else. Gets a little tiresome down the way. Kind of a chick beer you can respect to a degree. A little pricey, but not outlandish.

The Ride Berzerker Snowboard gives Jake Blauvelt the stability and float
he needs to muscle out giant landings in serious natural terrain. The
snappy carbon-infused construction works with the Hybrid All-Mountain
profile to provide confidence-inspiring control through anything from
untracked trees to chundery cornice landings.
The Berzerker also uses Ride's proven Slimewalls sidewall technology―urethane sidewalls that absorb impact to smooth the ride and allow you to ride harder, longer. They're also some of the toughest sidewalls in the industry. Along with Slimewalls, Ride's Carbon Array 3 Laminates add stiffness throughout the board for better board control. All of this technology is built around Ride's Pop Rods Core, which sandwiches Slimewalls urethane material between flat carbon rods for tons of pop without added stiffness. Ride finishes off the Berzerker with its Fusion 4000 Base—the fastest base material known to man.

HARRIETSTOWN — Two woman were arrested Saturday for allegedly smuggling cigarettes.
Melissa L. Beddow, 39, of Broadalbin, N.Y., and Sandra Aponte, 46, of Gloversville, N.Y., stopped to provide police with information on a motorcycle accident on State Route 30, according to a State Police press release.
During the interview, police smelled marijuana coming from inside the vehicle they were traveling in, and subsequently found 10,000 untaxed and unstamped cigarettes inside the vehicle.
Beddow and Aponte were charged with a felony and a misdemeanor for transporting untaxed and unstamped cigarettes. Beddow was also charged with unlawful possession of marijuana, a violation.
Both women were released on appearance tickets.

POCOMOKE CITY, Md. - Promising numbers to report out of Pocomoke City - The Police Department appears to be making big strides in their fight against crime. Nearly a year after Chief Kelvin Sewell took office, murders decreased by 200%. Incidents of robbery fell by 50%, and burglaries, 64%. Thefts and larcenies dropped by 87%.
Sewell credits the improvements to increased foot patrols. "All three shifts get out of their cars and walk on foot through the neighborhood. That was once our high crime areas, but no more since officers have been proactive," he said. Sewell also says the department also holds every officer accountable by what they do on the street each and every day.

(WMC-TV) - A three feet deep sinkhole closed a section of Jack Bond Road in Arlington.
The sinkhole formed Friday afternoon after heavy rain was dumped on the Mid-South.
"We immediately barricaded the road," said Shelby County Public Works Director Tom Needham. "Fortunately, no vehicles were damaged."
The sinkhole is located on Jack Bond Road between Brunswick Road and Pleasant Ridge Road.
People who live nearby will have access to their homes, but other traffic will be rerouted. Detour signs are posted.
"The rainy weather may delay us," Needham said about repairing the sinkhole. "It will be sometime next week before we get Jack Bond Road open."

After collaborating with area health care employers, Northern Essex Community College will offer an associate's degree in medical laboratory technology for the first time this fall through iHealth@NECC.
Designed especially for adults, the program combines online courses with traditional classroom courses. As a result, students only need to be on campus two days a week, reports the college.
"We're looking for adults who are interested in a career in health care," said Linda Comeau of iHealth. "The demand for skilled technologists in hospital and other clinical labs in the Merrimack Valley is strong so our graduates will be well-prepared for the job market."
Anyone interested in learning more about the new Medical Laboratory Technology Program is invited to attend one of the free information sessions on today, Thursday, July 26 at 10 a.m., Thursday, Aug. 9 at 6 p.m. or Tuesday, Aug. 21 at 10 a.m. All information sessions will be held at the NECC iHealth Building, 52 Franklin St., Lawrence.
Medical laboratory technicians perform and report laboratory testing and work in hospitals, physician's offices, and clinical laboratories.
"Building and delivering programs that meet community and student needs is what we are about at NECC." says NECC Vice President of Academic Affairs Bill Heineman.
Students interested in pursuing this program should contact Linda Comeau at 978-738-7408 or Christina Nuncio at 978-738-7894.
The medical laboratory program was recently approved by the Massachusetts Board of Higher Education.
With campuses in Haverhill and Lawrence and extension sites in Methuen and Groveland, Northern Essex Community College is a state-assisted college, offering over 70 associate degree and certificate programs as well as hundreds of noncredit courses designed for personal enrichment and career growth. Northern Essex is the only state college located in the lower Merrimack Valley region of Massachusetts.

(ed. - from the FanPosts)
Adrian Wojnarowski of Yahoo sports is reporting that according to one Eastern Conference executive "the whole team is available" when it comes to the Charlotte Bobcats. If this news surprises you, then you probably should have paid closer attention to the Rich Cho hiring. We've poured over his exploits before, but in short-- he's going to blown this team up, fix the foundation and rebuild; this is in his basketball DNA. So while it's being rumored that players the likes of Josh Smith, Andrew Bogut, Al Jefferson and Roy Hibbert could all be available for the right price, ultimately it would be extremely surprising to see the Bobcats add any talented veterans at this point. Cho is going to build through the draft, and it's going to be a slower, more methodical pace.
That being said, there is one trade that I would keep an eye on and that's the Phoenix Suns who it's rumored are willing to take on bad contracts provided they can unload the last year of Vince Carter's deal and get back a 2012 1st round pick. Vince Carter is this year's Erick Dampier, he has an $18 million team option which can be bought out for $2 million. Should the Bobcats trade veterans (read Jax) and amass picks in future drafts it would not surprise me in the least to see Cho send some of the Bobcats less desirable contracts like Carroll and Diop with a future 1st with the sole purpose of buying out Carter and erasing bad future contracts. Short term it would probably really annoy fans, but long term it further supports the notion of having complete cap flexibility and slowly building the roster.
More draft notes after the jump...
- Kawhi Leonard could be out of reach: Numerous sources are reporting that Leonard is now cancelling second workouts with any team drafting after #8. It's believed he left Detroit with a guarantee that if he's there the Pistons will draft him.
- Several teams believe the Bobcats will use the 9th overall pick on Chris Singleton: While I don't dislike the move it makes little sense based on the Bobcats' current roster to add another offensive liability for the purposes of more defense. However, if "the whole team is available" then the immediate offensive needs of the team will play second fiddle to them getting the best possible player.
- Scott Fowler of the Charlotte Observer has reported the Bobcats' interest in Jimmer Fredette is 'lukewarm'. One team who seems very high on Jimmer, however, is the New York Knicks. A quick glance at their roster and assets shows they have very little to offer to move up to #9 after gutting their team to acquire Carmelo Anthony.
- The Houston Rockets are offering the #14 and #23 picks to move up into the top 10, and have been rumored to be talking to the Detroit Pistons. The Pistons, however, have asked to wait until draft night to see who's available at #8. My assumption is that Detroit will stay pat and select Kawhi Leonard, but if he's selected they will trade back. This is pertinent because you better believe Cho is jumping up and down hoping the Rockets come calling him. I guarantee he would rather the #14, #19, #23 than the #9 and #11.
Per this think from Yahoo their latest mock is out based on the latest information Draft Express is hearing around the league. Their mock has the Bobcats selected Kawhi Leonard with the #9 pick and Alec Burks with the #19 pick, which would be a major gain for the Bobcats.
However, there are two interesting points raised in the mock:
- The Bobcats could sacrifice the #9 pick to gain cap flexibility and unload bad deals
- The #19 pick is readily available for trade
Neither of these moves would be attractive to the fan base, but they are smart. This is still a fairly weak draft, and if losing out on the #9 means potentially getting out from under the majority of the bad deals it would be a fresh start for the Cats. Similarly, if a desperate team wants to trade for the #19 for a 2012 1st rounder then Charlotte should consider holding off for a stronger draft.
Both moves are the definition of 'taking a step back to take two forward'.

The appearance of workers on the scene of the former Cape Ann Tool Company in Rockport these last two weeks has certainly been a welcome sight.
In fact, that would have been the case, almost regardless of what those workers were doing.
But the fact that the work now being carried out is geared toward razing much of what has long been perhaps Cape Ann's worst eyesore, while rehabbing the rest of the property bodes well for the future of the that Pigeon Cove neighborhood. And the evolving plan now being advanced by new site owner Michael Rauseo bodes well for the town and its residents as well.
From a strictly aesthetic standpoint, any clearing of this site is obviously welcome news for neighbors. As Pigeon Cove resident Marie Larsen noted, the demolition of this clear safety hazard and standing town liability threat has been something for which neighbors have been waiting 28 years — and that's understandable.
But while breathing sighs of relief that this site is finally being cleaned up, let's also not lose track of what should be in its future; a complex of homes and small retail parcels whose construction will still allow neighbors and passing motorists a view of the ocean, and amenities that will include 31 parking spots, three boat slips — and, perhaps the most underrated element, a water taxi that will transport people from Pigeon Cove to downtown Rockport and back.
Indeed, for all the talk over all the years aimed at finding solutions to Rockport's downtown parking problems, the idea of utilizing what amounts to a park-and-ride water taxi between Pigeon Cove may be the most practical, partial solution to surface in some time.
Let's hope this work not only continues in a timely fashion, but perhaps even accelerates.
The clearing of this property and the construction of Rauseo's new vision fort this revitalized site can't come soon enough.

As I think I've probably mentioned elsewhere previously, it's interesting how often I discover that artistic friends are more inclined to have a pet cat or just like cats than non-arty friends. I have always adored cats, can't imagine my life without actually owning one or two, and I make a bee-line for them wherever I see one.
I remember having to recite a poem as part of my drama lesson when I was about 12 - normally I wasn't that interested in reciting poetry, but this one involved cats and made me smile, so I thought I'd bring back those memories and try and get some photos to accompany it. I'm sure all cat owners will agree it's certainly true!
Cats sleep anywhere, any table, any chair. Top of piano, window-ledge, in the middle, on the edge. Open draw, empty shoe, anybody's lap will do. Fitted in a cardboard box, in the cupboard with your frocks. Anywhere! They don't care! Cats sleep anywhere.
Written by Eleanor Farjeon (1881 - 1965)
To prove my point, here's a selection of my cats sleeping in various places:
This is Oscar sleeping in one of his "proper" areas - a specifically bought cat shelf!
Here are two sleeping beauties on the decking a few years ago.
This is our previous Birman, Thelma, sleeping underneath our old scanner.
Oscar's favourite place at Christmas!
Oscar when he was 17 weeks old, curled up on top of a tool box....

I know I am not alone in having been in an abusive marriage; sadly I am not alone in having been treated in any of the ways described below. I know I am not alone in writing poignant and distressing recollections; but it just had to be written. This was written a good few years after the demise of my marriage. I chose to leave, perpetuated by a particular incident; I'll probably write about that too at some point. It took me 5 years to gather up the courage to do so. I couldn't believe how someone who 'loved' me? could treat me like this and I make no apologies for the naivety of this piece.
You promised to love me for ever. You promised your vows to me. I promised to love you for ever. I promised my vows to you. I respected you You respected nothing I gave you my body, my love, my honesty You gave me distress, upset, heartache, abuse. I made you unaccountably irritated, annoyed, impatient. You made me fearful, restrained, introverted, desperate. I drowned in pity You drowned in beer. You took away my self esteem, passion, decisions, self image I took away our son. I tried so hard! You tried to destroy me I forced a smile You forced me to do things I did not want I changed for self preservation You changed me indelibly You broke my spirit, possessions, our son's toys I broke my heart You dreamt of god knows what I dreamt I was killing you, I might be happy one day I felt lost, unloved, pathetic You felt empowered I reported you to the G.P. but only once You reported me as mentally unstable to the police You threw vile things at me I threw away my life for you You left me bereft I LEFT YOU!

I'm not honestly sure why I suddenly came up with the urge to write about this... such is the way my mind works. I use the internet a lot more than I used to, blogging, social networking, searching, helping son with homework, you name it I pretty much do it. I thought it would be fun to get Shakespeare's take on all things IT. One or two of the quotes I knew and you can guess where I got the other ones from can't you !!
Had the internet been around in Shakespeare's Day
Would the bard have taken to it?
Would it have been an improbable fiction,
Might he have scanned the browsers
And searched with bated breath;
Until he found a hit, a very palpable hit.
And away quickly to write it down
On parchment page with quill.
Or, do you think he'd struggle somewhat?
Feeling a blinking idiot!
Unable to master or see the point
Of social networking skills -
Maybe he'd message comically
And laugh oneself into stitches.
Which makes a change from LOL
Expletives being replaced with WTD
What the dickens! Perhaps?
Oh! would he see it as chaos is come again
Or there's method in the madness?
Would he blog his poetry
And tweet to let us know
When latest play being performed
Or include it as his status.
Might he set up a website for all to see
Oh! What would you do Will Shakespeare
Had the internet been with thee?
Enough of my musings now -
It's not the be-all and end-all.
Can't replace the wondrous thrill of books,
Or meeting people face to face.
But I'd like to think the bard succeeded
And 'IT' held an honoured place.

My S95 is definitely a "pocket camera." It's in my pocket all the time when I'm out (except when I lose it, if you know that story). It's small, shoots RAW, has good IS and gives me lots of manual options. I got it for really cheap on sale at the refurb store a couple of years ago. As with other folks here, I'd be looking at the RX100 if I had to replace it.
Now, if you want to go cheap and easy...
I just got a Powershot A1200 on clearance sale at the refurb store for $35. No IS, no RAW, limited manual -- but it does have an OVF. Granted, it's tiny, but it gets the job done if you don't want to deal with glare and angle issues. They just announced the latest new one in this line, the A1400. It adds IS and is in the $100 range.
I'd also have to look at the new N -- looks like it could be fun, and it's definitely pocketable.

An important and respected voice for liberal American Christianity for the past twenty years, Bishop John Shelby Spong integrates his often controversial stands on the Bible, Jesus, theism, and morality into an intelligible creed that speaks to today's thinking Christian. In this compelling and heartfelt book, he sounds a rousing call for a Christianity based on critical thought rather than blind faith, on love rather than judgment, and that focuses on life more than religion.read more
Drawing on a lifetime of wisdom, New York Times bestselling author and controversial religious leader John Shelby Spong continues to challenge traditional Christian theology inEternal Life: A New Vision.

How can those of us living in the 21st century understand the Jesus of history? We think very differently from the way the people who wrote the New Testament in the first century thought. Can we any longer believe, for example, that when Jesus entered this world his arrival was announced by a star that appeared newly in the heavens or that his birth was heralded by angels breaking through the midnight sky to sing to hillside shepherds? Can we, who both understand genetics and know that women have an egg-cell, still believe that his mother was a virgin and his father the Holy Spirit?read more
The lyrics of the hymns and praise and worship songs of the church are, outside of the Bible, the way most people establish their belief system, which is reflected in the way they think about and live their faith. The lyrics may be good or bad, perceptive or trite, and may or may not teach sound theological concepts. Christians should carefully consider what they are singing because it shapes their theological perspective whether they realize it or not.read more
Such a captivating experience is not limited by the type or setting of the music. Classical, pop, bluegrass, jazz, country, blues, to name common Western music, all have the capacity to release an energy within us, previously pent up, but now free. That release can and does happen to anyone, any time, any place. Music is one of the great equalizers of persons. No matter who you are, you are susceptible to this unfathomed power. What is going on here?read more
St. Augustine said that the one who sings, prays twice. We do not know how to pray as we ought, but the Spirit intercedes for us with sighs too deep for words; we get closest to praying as we ought when we sing. But church singing has changed rapidly in the 30-some years I've been a pastor. The hip new hymnal that came out in the nineties contains far too many hymns that were written for an organ and a congregation in the hundreds, not a guitar, a piano, and a raggedy chorus of twenty-some.read more
The varieties of religious experience call forth hymns and songs, emerging from the varieties of cultures, personality types, and religious expressions. Our worship and song reflects this diversity. We join in sacred worship traditional and contemporary, North American and African, and European and Asian. We chant hymns from Taize and melodies from Iona, and dance to "Siyahamba" (We are marching in the light of God), sometimes in the same service.read more
Michael Brown should not have been shot dead by police in Ferguson, Missouri. His hands were up. He was unarmed. It doesn't make any difference whether or not he had stolen earlier something that day. If he had committed such a crime, he should have been given appropriate justice, not a volley of bullets. At the time he was shot, there was simply no excuse for what happened to him. Somebody else had his life stolen from him, too: a man named Jesus, killed for no good reason. Jesus also died with his hands up. He had been ethnically profiled by the Roman occupying army in Jerusalem, and was brutally murdered on a cross.read more

Geo-Thermal Community in Arvada launched
Construction is slated to begin this fall on the 250unit Geos Neighborhood, the country's largest net-zero energy, master-planned community.
Geos Neighborhood will generate enough renewable energy to offset 100 percent of the annual energy needs of the entire community.
"Geos significantly raises the bar for sustainable residential development," said project developer Norbert Klebl, in a statement.
"We're tapping a market of people who want beautiful, affordable homes that support their commitment to a truly sustainable lifestyle. People want more than a solar panel here or an energy-efficient appliance there - they want their homes to play a key role in minimizing their carbon footprints - and Geos Neighborhood does just that.
The development's on-site solar and geothermal systems are designed to supply 100 percent of the community's energy needs and work in conjunction with energy consumption patterns that are markedly lower than those found in the nation's average homes.
Features will range from a checkerboard placement pattern of the homes that maximizes solar efficiency to advanced storm water recycling and cutting-edge heat recovery ventilators.
Driving Geos Neighborhood is a vision to offer sustainable living at accessible price points; homes begin at the $200,000s.
"It's great that there are multimillion dollar homes out there with every eco bell and whistle imaginable," said Klebl. "Our goal with the Geos Neighborhood is to deliver these same opportunities to more than just the select few by designing a lifestyle community that is financially accessible to many more people."
Sustainability details include:
Airtight construction: Homes' airtight construction will achieve a low 0.1 natural air changes per hour. By contrast, the majority of U.S. homes currently being built average between 0.5 and 0.7.
· Heat recovery ventilators: Special ventilators will transfer 75 percent or more of the heat from air exiting the home to the fresh, filtered air entering the home.
· Photovoltaic solar panels: Photovoltaic solar panels will be on every building, accounting for 65 percent of total electrical offset.
· Checkerboard design: A groundbreaking checkerboard design model places every other home on the front of the lot, while its neighbor sits to the back, maximizing each home's solar collection.
· Water conservation: Serving an important dual purpose, each community green is a storm water detention basin that also serves as a neighborhood park, and storm water is recycled back into the community landscape.
Geos Neighborhood homes will range from 860 square feet to 3,683 square feet in a variety of housing types, including single-family homes, live/work townhomes, paired homes, row homes, multi-level condos and co-housing.
Each home's standard and upgrade features will include energy-conserving light fixtures and water conserving plumbing fixtures.
Interior finishes will be low-toxic and contain low or no VOCs (volatile organic compounds), and materials will be from sustainable resources.
Pre-sales are underway.
For more information : www.discovergeos.com or call (303) 432-8007.

Massacre by "His Majesty's Allies"
When our informant passed through Newark [Niagara-on-the-Lake, Ontario] the Kentuckians taken in the late engagement at the Rapids, were arriving there in considerable numbers, having been ... liberated on their parole. Their appearance was truly deplorable, having been stripped and plundered by the Indians of every thing valuable. Few of them had any other garment except shirt and trousers, and blankets which had been sent them by [American] gen. [William Henry] Harrison.
The inhabitants had furnished most of them with hats, though many were still without any. The people too were very liberal in supplying them with provisions.
After giving some particulars ... concerning the detachment of 800 militia under command of col. William Dudley, which landed opposite Fort-Meighs [Meigs]; their success in carrying the batteries, spiking the cannon ... and skirmishing with the retreating Indians till they were cut off by the British who were encamped in their rear ...
The prisoners were taken to the old fort where they were counted, and stated by the British officer to amount to about 530. Having been left in the fort under a small guard, the Indians broke in upon them and killed a number. Two of the English soldiers were killed by the Indians, in attempting to defend them; Tecumseh and Col. [Matthew] Elliot soon came to their relief, and put an end to the massacre. Tecumseh, in particular, was much enraged at the conduct of the Indians.
Their loss in killed was variously stated from 60 to 100, one-third of which were said to have been massacred by the Indians after the surrender. Among the killed was col. Dudley and four captains ... They represent the Indians in general to have acted with great cruelty. The British on the other hand, treated them well, took care of the wounded, and used every exertion to protect them from the Indians. They estimate the force of the British at about 1,000 men, and that of the Indians from 15 to 20 hundred. — Columbian

In some professions, the word holiday doesn't exist. Hospitals are always staffed. Paramedics and ambulances don't stop. Emergency response does not take a day off. But there are other places that are open on the holiday even though they don't have to.
"It's okay. I like it. I have fun with the people" says Jimmy Kakavitsas of Skyland Family Restaurant. "Everything is closed. We've been here forever. People know. They depend on us to be open today".
The restaurant, which operates 24 hours a day has been open 20 years and every year on Christmas Day, was crowded today. Kakavitsas says he's not surprised customers packed in. "People get tired to stay home all day so they come out". He says he opens on holidays "for my customers convenience. And I need to work".
Meanwhile shoppers apparently needed more time.
Chris Core at Walgreens showed up to work Christmas Morning. "Busy. All day. Since 6am I've been here we've been pretty busy".
The shift leader says customers are buying "a little bit of all. Last minute gifts, tissues, you name it".

The Houston Dynamo hoped to use Saturday's regular season finale to get some sort of confidence on the road, where they have struggled, and the Colorado Rapids seemed to provide the perfect team to do that against. But not even Colorado could cure Houston's ills as they lost 2-0 to send them to the playoffs still reeling away from BBVA Compass Stadium.
Kamani Hill put the Rapids in front within 10 minutes with a good shot from 20 yards. Colorado struck in transition and exploited a big gap between the Houston defense, which Hill ran into and when no defender stepped up to him, he fired hard and low to beat Tally Hall.
Even when down a goal and needing to get forward, the Dynamo never looked like they were in the match. They struggled to create chances or even keep the ball. Their defending was adequate, but hardly inspiring and the Rapids bossed the match. A 76th minute goal by Andre Akpan put the match to bed and secured a deserved win for Colorado.
The Dynamo are now winless on the road since July 28. That's especially bad news considering that they open the playoffs on Wednesday at Chicago, where a loss will end their season.

I thank Gov. Paul LePage and the new majority leadership in Augusta for the wake-up call.
This governor came into office and the first thing he did was sucker punch organized labor right in the mouth. He gave marching orders to his majority to attack organized labor and Maine workers at every turn.
Their first act was to remove the labor mural from the walls of the Department of Labor. Then they turned on the Maine state workers by attacking their earned pension. They repealed the right to form a union for workers at DeCoster's and other factory egg farms, rolled back child labor laws which protect Maine's minors, made it more difficult to get by for workers with the most severe on-the-job injuries by limiting workers' compensation, passed a bill that punishes laid-off workers, repealed collective bargaining rights for child care providers, and made it easier to classify workers as "independent contractors" instead of employees — which means workers go without the protections of basic labor laws, workers' compensation and unemployment insurance.
It is too bad it took these attacks to wake us up and revive a sense of true solidarity in Maine organized labor. So now that we're awake, we shall keep fighting all the way to November.

PHOENIX -- Arizona motorists are paying more at the pump this week.
Officials with Triple-A Arizona said Thursday that the average statewide price for unleaded regular gasoline is $3.08 a gallon. That's nearly 4 cents higher than last week.
This week's national average is $3.29 per gallon, down by almost 2 cents from last week.
Tucson has the lowest average gasoline price in Arizona at $2.91 a gallon while Flagstaff has the highest at $3.26.
Utah has the lowest average gas prices in the continental U.S. at $2.83 a gallon with New York having the highest at $3.73 a gallon.
