text: Charitable Fashion Gifts 13 Gifts That Will Give Back This Holiday Season by Hannah Weil 12/09/13 18 Reactions 166 Shares Print 15 4 39 108 0 There's really no better feeling than doing something for others — just ask Cher Horowitz. That's why we're doing our part to give back with holiday gifts that help a worthy cause. Spreading the love has never been easier than with this selection of cool jewels, handmade scarves, and even a standout pair of shades that each help to provide support to people in need — we're betting both you and the recipient will feel pretty good about that. Let the giving begin when you start clicking! What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 It's not just cute — 50 percent of the proceeds from the purchase of this Gorjana Marion Wristlet ($103) will go toward efforts to end the cycle of poverty in Kibera, Africa. 1 / 13 What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 This adorable — and perfectly seasonal — ASOS Africa checked sweater ($68) is produced in collaboration with a Kenyan community organization called Soko.

How's that for a thoughtful present? 3 / 13 What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 Be a crowd-pleaser and a do-gooder when you gift a pair of TOMS ($54).

|Maliki urges Fallujah residents to expel militants to avoid assault
Iraqi Prime Minister Nouri al-Maliki has called on residents of Fallujah to expel the "terrorists" holding the city to spare it from an assault by the army, state television reported.
On Monday, Maliki called on "the people of Fallujah and its tribes to expel the terrorists" so "their areas are not subjected to the danger of armed clashes."
Maliki also said he had ordered security forces "not to strike residential areas," the television added.
Fallujah, west of Baghdad is reportedly outside government control. Terrorists have also held parts of Anbar provincial capital Ramadi for days.
It is the first time terrorists have exercised such open control in major cities since the height of the bloody insurgency that followed the U.S.-led invasion of 2003.
Security officials said Maliki, who is also commander in chief of the armed forces, had agreed to hold off an offensive for now at least to give tribal leaders in Falluja more time to drive out the terrorists on their own.
"No specific deadline was determined, but it will not be open-ended," a special forces officer said of plans to attack, according to Reuters.
"We are not prepared to wait too long. We're talking about a matter of days only. More time means more strength for terrorists".
Two local tribal leaders said meetings were being held with clerics and community leaders to find a way to persuade fighters from the Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant (ISIL) to quit Falluja and avert further bloodshed.
ISIL has emerged in Syria's civil war as an affiliate of the international al-Qaeda network and a powerful force among Sunni Muslim rebels seeking to oust President Bashar al-Assad.
In Iraq, it has been tightening its grip on Anbar province, a thinly populated, mainly Sunni region the size of Greece, and on the area's main towns, strung along the Euphrates River. Its stated aim has been to create a Sunni state straddling the border into Syria's rebel-held desert provinces.
Some armed tribesmen from Iraq's once dominant Sunni minority have been fighting ISIL terrorists in the area since last week. But others baulk at taking sides with the Shia government in Baghdad.

Culminating Project Frequently Asked Questions
Updated: December 2012
1. What is the role of the State Board of Education (SBE) in the Culminating Project?
SBE established the Culminating Project as a graduation requirement in 2000. The requirement is effective for students in the graduating class of 2008 and beyond, through WAC 180-51-061, WAC 180-51-066, and WAC 180-51-067.
2. What is the Culminating Project?
Basic content knowledge is tested through the High School Proficiency Exam (HSPE), End-of-Course Exams, Classroom Based Assessments (CBA), and various alternative assessments that address Washington's Basic Education learning goals one and two. This experiential, hands-on project gives students a formal opportunity to demonstrate in a variety of ways their learning competencies related to Washington's Basic Education learning goals three and four (RCW 28A.150.210):
3. What are the Culminating Project guidelines?
Students have the flexibility to construct Culminating Projects that demonstrate essential skills through reading, writing, speaking, production, and/or performance; skills of analysis, logic and creativity; and the integration of experience and knowledge to form reasoned judgments and solve problems. School districts should clearly identify Culminating Project student outcomes and develop and publish assessment criteria to support those outcomes. Each district should have a Culminating Project management system designed to support the students and staff. Districts should also have policies in place to handle special circumstances, such as district transfers, parental challenges to the project, etc.
Districts may opt to include the community in project planning, support, or feedback. There is no state-level prohibition against doing joint projects of two or more students. School districts shall ensure the safety of each student by complying with legal and risk management guidelines.
4. What changes is SBE considering to the Culminating Project?
SBE may consider changes to the Culminating Project. One proposal is to require the Culminating Project to include a portfolio, a presentation, and a product. The project may also include a research or reflective paper, community service, job shadowing, internship, or other components deemed appropriate by the district.
SBE may also propose that the project demonstrate one or more examples of students' skills in each of the following categories:
No action has been taken on these proposals.

Awaiting the results of your university applications is always a stressful time – but unlike Anna Rehfisch, most students are not also deep in preparations for the start of the next Olympic cycle.
The 17-year-old shooter narrowly missed out on a shock selection for the London 2012 squad when she shot the qualifying score in the 25m pistol event but could not repeat the trick at the European Championships.
Rehfisch has a busy time ahead, with an interview for Oxford University and studying for her International Baccalaureate, along with continuing her development as one of Britain's brightest hopes for Rio 2016.
The Stephen Perse Sixth Form College pupil defended her British Ladies Sport Pistol Championship title as well as winning the Under-21 Women's 10m Air Pistol Championship in September – but how does she handle the juggling act?
"With great difficulty," admitted Rehfisch, who benefits from being a member of the Lloyds TSB Local Heroes programme.
"It is just about making the most of any moment you get, some days you have to focus on different things, but shooting is still at the forefront.
"Shooting will have an influence on where I choose to go to university – Oxford is Oxford and they have a shooting team, but Exeter also looks incredible.
"I will be training over the winter but I will also be revising for exams, so it is going to be a busy time.
"Defending the British Championships was never in my mind, I just wanted to get my scores, but it has increased my confidence and it is nice to see training pay off.
"Winning the overall 10m is the next step up and I would have won the senior one anyway with my scores, but I thought it might be a premature decision to leave the juniors considering I can stay there until I'm 21."
While Rio 2016 remains the long-term goal for Rehfisch, although she believes 2020 is a more likely medal chance, Glasgow 2014 is also looming large in her thoughts.
But any chance of a debut in the Commonwealth Games depends on Rehfisch's ability to qualify in the Sport Pistol as well as the Air Pistol – and this will come down to the Home Office.
"I need a firearms certificate to shoot in the Sport Pistol, so technically I have never actually fired a shot in that competition," she added.
"It is a possibility for 2014 but I have been on the list for about a year now so unless the legislation comes through pretty quickly it looks unlikely.
"I think 2020 will be the games I can really aim for a medal, but knowing what I am like I will try to head to Rio with a huge aim to get a medal.
"They may change the rules where you all start on a level playing field in the final, which could really benefit me – so we'll see how it goes."
Lloyds TSB Local Heroes, in partnership with SportsAid, provides support and funding to 346 of Britain's most talented developing athletes on their journey to London 2012 and beyond. Since 2008, the programme has supported 1,000 athletes. Follow future stars at facebook.com/lloydstsblocalheroes

When the Broncos are fully healthy, they will line up No. 2 overall draft choice Von Miller at strong-side linebacker and former first-rounder D.J. Williams on the weak side. The man in the middle: Joe Mays, a 2008 sixth-round pick by the Eagles.
Though his draft status isn't of the pedigree of the men playing alongside him, Mays is equally important to the Broncos' defense this season. A part-time player early in his career, the fourth-year 'backer will be asked to do a wide variety of tasks for the club in its new 4-3 scheme. While his 2010 season ended prematurely because of a left knee injury, Mays is fully rehabbed and ready to take his place in the middle of the Denver "D."
We hear Mays was all over the field in camp, showing a great knowledge of the new defensive system, which impressed head coach John Fox. Mays also came back from his injury in better shape and stronger than he was last season, and his aggressive style of play will work well alongside Miller and Williams when the latter is recovered from a dislocated right elbow.

I am unable to read much text on iPhone because of small type, so haven't even tried. Don't go anywhere without my iPad and my iPhone anyway ;-) this e version and PDF are very satisfactory ways for me to keep up on Mac news. Thanks NR.
I also bought at App Store another PDF viewer: "GoodNotes" $4.95. With it one can take notes and annotate, etc. I think teachers and students use something like it. May be overkill for my needs. We'll see.
As I wrote in our blog last week, the new app is an experiment. We're fortunate to have engaging readers like you to push us on.
Again, thank you.

Animal Ag Key to U.S. Soybean Farmer Success
A new report prepared for the United Soybean Board and soy checkoff concludes that the future success of the U.S. soy industry is closely tied to the long-term competitiveness of animal agriculture. According to the report - the challenges facing U.S. poultry, livestock and fish farmers - including rising feed prices and costs related to environmental and animal welfare regulations - threaten the future profitability of the nation's soybean farmers. USB Domestic Marketing Program Chair Lewis Bainbridge says U.S. soybean farmers should care about animal ag because it's their number one domestic customer. He says they need to be sensitive to the issues facing poultry and livestock farmers and make sure they're providing high-quality soy meal.
The study looks at the production of broilers, eggs, turkeys, hogs, beef cattle, dairy and aquaculture between 2001 and 2011 and details the use of U.S. soy meal in each sector - as well as the value the sector represents to soybean farmers. In addition - the study outlines the economic benefits poultry, livestock and aquaculture provide at the state and national levels. In 2011 - these benefits included support for 1.7-million jobs nationally, 333-billion dollars in total economic output, a 58-billion dollar impact on household incomes and 18-billion dollars in income and property taxes paid.
For the U.S. soybean farmers - poultry, livestock and fish farmers used almost 30-million tons of soy meal in 2011. That's the meal from 1.27-billion bushels of U.S. soybeans.

Women's ShedRain Packable Anorak 24 24
Awful I was not just disappointed, I was really angry. I bought this coat for a business trip to a northern country, and found myself in a rainy weather without a coat that would help. This one was not possible to wear - the hood does not have a stripe to make it tight so that it stays on your head. When I worked it was blown off my head with air, when I was just standing - it was blown off with the wind. It also has two pockets only which are not secure and cannot keep money or card, or travel document, so that I had to constantly reach to my bag to take those off and put them back. As the result, all the staff in my bag was wet. Adding to that a boxy feet you get a really disappointing product. The worst part was that I could not easily buy another coat, and if I even have time to do so, it would be crazy expensive, not a spending I would plan for Sweden. June 9, 2013
Very useful I like the fact that this is slightly generous and can be worn as an extra layer over another jacket or heavy sweater. It's going to be a very useful, compact addition to my wardrobe. Very packable. Pretty stylish considering. I got basic black for versatility but I think the print would give it a style edge. August 5, 2014
Good purchase I was happy to find that it fit a little loosely. I like the feel of it. The zipper tends to catch a little, which concerns me. I wish the manufacturer put in instructions as to how to fold the jacket back into its pocket, because I am clueless! August 6, 2014
Keeping dry I bought one of these jackets for myself last year, and then this one for my Mom. We have lots of rainy days in South Florida in the summertime. These jackets folded up and kept in the car, are always available to keep us dry when the rains come our way. Fit is great, very comfortable, and does the job without added weight in our hot temperatures. July 1, 2014
Cute But Not Perfect This jacket is cute, but there are a couple of things I do not like. First, it folds into its own pocket which would be fine if I knew how to do it. No instructions are given and, after 15 minutes, I gave up. The jacket does not wrinkle so I will just pack it as I do my other clothing. The second thing I do not like is the drawstring. It is the strangest one I've ever seen. It consists of one large loop coming out of only one side and it is found on the outside of the jacket. Weird!! But, I do like the jacket and plan to keep it even with its flaws. July 26, 2013
Ordered this for a trip and wanted something chic but practical. Jacket is a bit stiff and the drawstring is on the outside kind of odd. Not as nice as I was hoping but it does fold up small. Maybe with some wear it will get a softer feel. Haven't worn it out in the rain yet so don't know if it will be resistent or if I will get wet. The pattern is very nice and it will be lightweight which is a big factor for me since it is hot in the spring and summer. Hope this helps. March 28, 2014
Like it Ordered mine before I needed it so I could address issues others brought up. The cord used to adjust fit is on the outside, but is easy to use. Pull a little cord through the clip on left side, and more than that on the cord running around the back & right side, and it works just fine. The hood will blow around and maybe off because it's so light. I tested the fit and sewed a couple of small folds in the hood, down near the throat, plus another on the mid-seam in the back. A couple of stitches in each place and you're done. I got my jkt on sale. I think full price is a bit much. I really like the leopard print. March 4, 2014
Great for travel - keep in car; folding directions I bought one of these several years ago, and keep it in the seat-back pocket in my car. You'll definitely want to insert a drawstring (long shoelace) in the hood. VERY simple to do. Just pick out a few stitches in the hem of the hood near the neck on each side (overstitch a couple of stitches to keep it from unraveling back). Insert shoelace through the hem at the edge of hood all the way around, and knot the ends. Note that the material really does shed water - can hold your arm under a running faucet and water just falls off. However the seams are not actually sealed/waterproof, so if you get caught in constant heavy rain, it will eventually seep through the seams. It's also quite easy to fold into the pocket: 1. Turn pocket with clip inside out so it's sticking out. 2. Zip up jacket. Hold at shoulders and fold in entire jacket & hood in half lengthwise (back to back) and lay it on the floor (pocket against floor). 3. Bring both arms to front and lay them lengthwise down folded jacket. 4. Fold hood all the way down flat against jacket. 5. Fold each side lengthwise to center (the long zipper should be facing you, running down the middle.). 6. Fold down top about 8", then fold over again. Fold bottom up about 8" - should have a 7" x 8" rectangle with the pocket still hanging off the corner of the bottom side. 7. By now you can see how the pocket can "swallow" the jacket. Just slide the square into the gaping zipper pouch/pocket, pulling the pouch up around it. It will take a little maneuvering, but it's easy to flatten out. If you folded nicely, your jacket will be fairly wrinkle-free when you go to wear it. Voila! April 4, 2014

Duncan, Spurs collapse down the stretch
Tim Duncan was delivering a vintage performance, and the San Antonio Spurs were streaking to the franchise's fifth championship.
Then the 37-year-old forward ran out of gas, and the Spurs collapsed down the stretch like they so rarely have before.
Duncan had 30 points and 14 rebounds in the first three quarters, but was scoreless and grabbed just three boards in the fourth quarter and overtime of San Antonio's 103-100 overtime loss to the Miami Heat in Game 6 of the NBA Finals on Tuesday night.
The Spurs led by 10 points at the start of the fourth quarter and by five with 28 seconds to play. But Duncan missed all five of his shots in the fourth quarter and overtime.
Game 7 is on Thursday night in Miami.

Man fights to keep wife buried in front yard
ALABAMA, USA (AP) — James Davis is fighting to keep the remains of his late wife right where he dug her grave: In the front yard of his home, just a few feet from the porch.
Davis said he was only abiding by Patsy Ruth Davis' wishes when he buried her outside their log home in 2009, yet the city sued to move the body elsewhere. A county judge ordered Davis to disinter his wife, but the ruling is on hold as the Alabama Civil Court of Appeals considers his challenge.
Davis, 73, said he never expected such a fight.
"Good Lord, they've raised pigs in their yard, there's horses out the road here in a corral in the city limits, they've got other gravesites here all over the place," said Davis. "And there shouldn't have been a problem."
While state health officials say family burial plots aren't uncommon in Alabama, city officials worry about the precedent set by allowing a grave on a residential lot on one of the main streets through town. They say state law gives the city some control over where people bury their loved ones and have cited concerns about long-term care, appearance, property values and the complaints of some neighbours.
"We're not in the 1800s any longer," said city attorney Parker Edmiston. "We're not talking about a homestead, we're not talking about someone who is out in the country on 40 acres of land. Mr Davis lives in downtown Stevenson."
A strong libertarian streak runs through northeast Alabama, which has relatively few zoning laws to govern what people do with their property. Even a neighbour who got into a fight with Davis over the gravesite — Davis said he punched the man — isn't comfortable with limiting what a homeowner can do with his property.
"I don't think it's right, but it's not my place to tell him he can't do it," said George W Westmoreland, 79, who served three tours of duty in Vietnam. "I laid my life on the line so he would have the right to do this. This is what freedom is about."
Westmoreland declined to discuss his specific objections to the grave.
It's unclear when the appeals court might rule. Attorneys filed initial papers in the appeal on Friday. The decision could come down to whether the judges believe the front-yard grave constitutes a family plot that requires no approval or a cemetery, which would.
In the meantime, Davis has protested by running for City Council. A campaign sign hangs near a bigger sign in his yard that says: "Let Patsy Rest in Peace."

Last weekend's horrific box office numbers continued into this weekend, which returned animated family film Shrek Forever After--in its third week--to the top of the fray, the only film to crack the $20-million mark! The lucrative summer season is when the studios send their surefire top guns to do battle. So far, the summer of 2010 is a fizzle. Anthony D'Alessandro reports:
It was another horrendous weekend at the summer box office with the top ten films totaling $120 million, off 25% from last year's post Memorial Day frame. Last weekend's bad Feng Shui continues to pervade the multiplex.
Distribution execs often say that post-holiday weekend numbers are sluggish, but that excuse won't work this time: in recent years the weekend after Memorial Day has been strong. If the film is there, the audience will queue, whether it's a tentpole like the all-time record holder for this session, 2004's Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban ($93.7 million), or a frosh family title such as last year's Disney/Pixar title Up ($68.1 million).
This weekend studios unleashed four wide releases, an abnormal amount for the first week in June. When this happens, too many studios spoil the openings, because each distrib's bow undermines the competition. Execs can argue that each title was catering to a different crowd, but it's still a lackluster opening.
Whenever there's a perceived strong Memorial Day holdover heading into June, studios typically counterprogram with niche-audience releases, as they did in 2007 when Pirates of the Caribbean: At World's End played strong into its post-holiday frame. Studios saw this coming and loaded the schedule with three new titles geared toward specific demos.
Months ago, the studios were not forecasting that Shrek Forever After would top this weekend with $25.3 million off 4,386 sites: they figured that Sex and the City 2 would prevail. But it opened poorly and slid 59% for fifth place showing. (Oddly, SATC 2 is performing better overseas, outpacing the first film; the worldwide total is $163 million.) Even so, Universal's latest Judd Apatow-production Get Him to the Greek drew a modest $17.4 million at 2,697 in second place. At a cost of $40 million, the raunchy R-rated comedy will make money for the studio (and financeers Relativity and Spyglass Entertainment). However, Universal has seen far better numbers for its early June summer comedies: 2006's The Break-Up and 2007's Knocked Up respectively opened to $39.2 million and $30.7 million.
While the studio has set a precedent for a comedy bow in the first frame of June sleeping its way past $100 million, Universal sees the B.O. trajectory for Greek on par with such cult comedies as its 2008 spring predecessor Forgetting Sarah Marshall, which bowed to $17.7 million and totaled $63.2 million, and Paramount's I Love You, Man which opened to $17.8 million last year and ended its domestic run at $71.4 million. Overall Cinemascore for Greek is B with a B+ among core males which counted 53% of its audience. 55% of Greek's moviegoers were under 30, with 45% trending older.
Not unexpectedly, given that Lionsgate didn't screen Killers for critics, the Katherine Heigl/Ashton Kutcher action comedy earned lousy reviews (Tomatometer: 12% Rotten). In a conference call with Wall Street analysts, Lionsgate said that in order for the film (which unaccountably cost $75 million, the highest budget in the company's history, they claim) to be profitable, it needed to break past $20 million on its opening weekend. A weak opening estimate of $16.1 million from 2,859 venues won't help the company in its fight against dissident stockholder Carl Icahn. Both of Killers' leads have seen better bows during summer; Heigl with Knocked Up and Kutcher with What Happens in Vegas ($20.2 million). Killers earned a B Cinemascore with 62% of tickets sold to females. Under and over 25 was split 50/50. Lionsgate went in the summer because the multiple for a romantic comedy can be three times its opening, as opposed to other times of the year. Not this time.
Fox/New Regency's $50-million kidpic Marmaduke was no box-office wow, barking up $11.3 million at 3,213. The studio saw far better returns on its talking-cartoon/live action films Garfield (2004) and 2007's Alvin and the Chipmunks, which both charted $20-million-plus over three days. Look for Marmaduke to exceed its domestic performance abroad: Fox's previous two Garfield films grossed over $100 million overseas, outperforming their stateside totals. Overall, Marmaduke bested Fox's projections, earning a B+ Cinemascore with 57% of its ticketholders under the age of 25. Typically, family films open modestly and often hold well.
While it's trending on Twitter and generating great buzz among cinephiles off strong reviews, Warner Bros. Splice, a Sundance acquisition by Joel Silver's Dark Castle label, wasn't expected to scare up any wondrous B.O. receipts at the onset of the weekend. But the smart horror film's estimated three days of $7.45 million at 2,450 far exceeds industry projections of $5 million. Expect WOM to grow on this one. IndieWIRE reports the indie box office.

I think it is Dark Castle which had high hope on "Splice". (Dark Castle also spends $35 million P&A for this film) I doubt WB had high hope on "Splice" as WB is very conservative on specialty films. (WB was even considering to send "Slumdog Millionaire" straight-to-video.)
Totally agree that it would have been better for Dark Castle/WB to platform "Splice", but I doubt that WB know how to platform "Splice". It may be another incident to prove that why studios need specialty divisions; some films require more careful nurturing from people who understand about how specialty market works.
BTW, it was sad that Bill Pohlad disavowed "Splice" and killed Apparition's chance of releasing this film, because Bob Berney would be a perfect person to handle this film's US theatrical release. (Another good reason for Bob Berney to leave Apparition?)
Anthony D'Alessandro | June 7, 2010 2:41 AM
I think WB was looking for Splice to be something of a Paranormal Activity or Open Water. It would have been better for them to platform it; particulary during a competitive summer frame -- to see if auds would bite.
Anne Thompson | June 6, 2010 10:00 AM
Agreed, a D cinemascore is not a good thing. Maybe the Joel Silver/Warner Bros. wide release was not good for Splice, which seems to be playing best for smart cinephiles.

How did Cropsey do?
mary | June 6, 2010 6:06 AM
SPLICE is getting mostly positive reviews from critics, but the film also gets many negative comments in twitter and garnered a D grade from CinemaScore. Therefore, I doubt that WOM will grow on this one.
It may prove that SPLICE could not be opened and sold as a mainstream horror film; the film may require more careful nurturing from a specialty division. (I believe that if "Memento" was opened and sold as a mainstream thriller, the film would not have the reputation it has today.)

Bennington teacher who made headlines denies felony chargeBy Patrick McArdle
STAFF WRITER | January 28,2013BENNINGTON — A Bennington high school teacher who made headlines, earlier this month, for being hospitalized after making what some described as "disturbing" comments through social network sites was arraigned on Monday on a felony charge after police said they believed he broke into the home he once shared with his estranged wife.
Steven P. Davis, 35, who now lives in Troy, N.Y., pleaded innocent in Bennington criminal court to a felony charge of unlawful trespass into an occupied home and a misdemeanor charge of violating an abuse prevention order against his wife.
Davis appeared in court without an attorney but said he had hired an attorney who would represent him in future court appearances. He was released on Monday without bail but ordered to observe a 24-hour curfew at the hotel in Troy where he's living.
In an affidavit, Sgt. Michael Plusch, of the Bennington Police Department, said he heard from Davis on Friday, around 10:40 p.m. Plusch said Davis had made accusations that his children were not safe in the home where they were staying.
Plusch said he knew that an abuse prevention order had been filed against Davis on Jan. 15. He said he called Davis back after reviewing the order and told him he could request the order be changed to allow him contact with his children but warned Davis that the phone call Davis had made could be interpreted as an attempt to contact his wife through the police which could lead to Davis' arrest.
Plusch said he met with Anna Deery, who said she provides day care services for Davis' children, on Sunday around 5:30 p.m.
Deery told police that she had seen Davis drive by her home on Saturday around 10:30 a.m. and 12:30 p.m.
Both times, she said she saw Davis turn on to Elm Street where he once lived.
Plusch said he traveled to the area himself and determined there were no places Davis might have visited like grocery stores, restaurants, gas stations or professional offices.
"Davis is restricted from coming within 200 feet of the residence ... There is no reason for being on this portion of Elm Street except to drive (past) the residence ... considering he is currently living in Troy, New York," Plusch said.
According to Plusch, officers received a report later on Sunday that Davis' house had a broken basement window and its doors were open.
Officers who responded found that someone had entered the home, turned off the power and heat and removed two landline phones, several pairs of men's shoes and eight photographs that police believed belonged to Davis.
Plusch said Deery had provided him with copies of postings that Davis allegedly made to the Internet. In one he expressed unhappiness about being denied contact with "the people that matter to me most" even though he had been given a "clear bill of health." The second posting quoted the Constitution passage on the right to bear arms.
Davis' behavior has attracted national attention after police said they had confiscated a Bushmaster semi-automatic assault rifle, about 500 rounds of ammunition and two magazines although police said the rifle did not appear to have ever been fired.
Davis also sent emails criticizing teachers and administrators at Mount Anthony Union High School.
The school district has hired other teachers to finish out Davis' classes for this year.

The United States is one of the most diverse countries on earth, jam packed full of amazing sights from St. Patrick's cathedral in New York to Mount Hollywood California.The Northeast region is where it all started. Thirteen British colonies fought the American Revolution from here and won their independence in the first successful colonial rebellion in history. Take a look at these rolling hills carpeted with foliage along the Hudson river here, north of New York City.The American south is known for its polite people and slow pace of life. Probably they move slowly because it's so hot. Southerners tend not to trust people from "up north" because they talk too fast. Here's a cemetery in Georgia where you can find graves of soldiers from the Civil War.The West Coast is sort of like another country that exists to make the east coast jealous. California is full of nothing but grizzly old miners digging for gold, a few gangster rappers, and then actors. That is to say, the West Coast functions as the imagination of the US, like a weird little brother who teases everybody then gets famous for making freaky art.The central part of the country is flat farmland all the way over to the Rocky Mountains. Up in the northwest corner you can find creative people in places like Portland and Seattle, along with awesome snowboarding and good beer. Text by Steve Smith.

The new season of "Doctor Who" is almost here and promises non-stop excitement. But what of this rumor that his companion Clara may quit the Tardis?
As Walking with Dinosaurs prepares for a monster tour of the US, we talk to the Aussie studio that creates the prehistoric beasts.
Newly discovered dino with skull protrusion like "decorative fins on classic 1950s cars" gets a name like a god (and a car).
The editing tool partners with the Discovery Communications' Digital Networks to incorporate its footage into home movies.
Paleontologists in Argentina find thigh bones so big, they believe they've found a new variety of titanosaur.
Over 110 million years ago, a compelling scene played out between two dinosaurs. A digital reconstruction tells the story.
Scientists from the Carnegie and Smithsonian museums, as well as the University of Utah, have unveiled a new dinosaur they have dubbed the "chicken from hell."
Scientists determined to study how dinosaurs walked attach some silly-looking plunger butts onto modern chickens.
In 2007 and 2008, the cute and cuddly Pleo was a huge hit. Then its maker went out of business, and the dinosaur disappeared from view. So what is it doing at CES 2014?
The DNA of birds could be the conduit to a re-creation of dinosaurs. The idea would be to design genomes of creatures from the past.

DEERFIELD, Ill. (AP) - Chicago Bulls forward Luol Deng says the illness that kept him out of a playoff game against the Brooklyn Nets was far more serious than the flu.
He missed the Bulls' loss in Game 6 on Thursday with what coach Tom Thibodeau said were flu-like symptoms.
In 1 of a series of tweets from the hospital on Friday, Deng wrote: "It really upsets me that everyone thinks I would miss a game" because of the flu.
He also confirmed he had a spinal tap to rule out meningitis earlier in the week. And he indicated he will join the team for Game 7 in Brooklyn if he's medically cleared, although he might have to spend the night in the hospital.

From LeakyPedia
Summers is a wizard who was sorted into Hufflepuff at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. When the Triwizard Tournament was held there in 1994, Summers was underage and therefore forbidden from entering into the contest. Nonetheless he tried to cross the Age Line that headmaster Albus Dumbledore had drawn around the Goblet of Fire to prevent such students from breaking this rule, possibly by using an Ageing Potion. As a result he was thrown from the circle and magically given a beard. He was sent to Poppy Pomfrey, as was Fawcett, another would-be underage champion. Twins Fred and George Weasley later tried the same too, with the same result. However Dumbledore thought that their beards were finer than Summers' and Fawcett's.[1]

The Pipestone Occasional Publication and the Legacy Grant
You should all have received your copies of our recent Legacy-funded volume
The Red Pipestone Quarry
of Minnesota: Archaeological and Historical Reports, Second Revised Edition
, from Alan Woolworth and
Prairie Smoke Press. The Minnesota Historical Society has now informed us that the supporting grant is
closed and that they are pleased with the work. Our many thanks to their funding opportunity and to Alan
and Charlie Bailey of Prairie Smoke Press for all their hard work on a significant contribution to Upper
Midwest material culture study. The Press was assisted with this important work by
Editor Kent
Bakken and Board Members Deborah Schoenholz and Anna Morrow.
From our Managing Editor, Kent Bakken: "All galley proofs have been reviewed by the authors and
forwarded to the printer with any additional corrections. The corrections have been set and this weekend
the volume galley was sent to me to proof. Our new
volunteer Dawn Murphy is comparing the
volume galley to the marked up author galley to ensure that all the changes were made. I'll also be
reviewing the volume galley this week, and I hope we can have it back to the printer by the weekend or
shortly thereafter. Any changes from this review should be minimal." We should be sending it to the
printer shortly and plan for the 2013 volume of
The Minnesota Archaeologist
to be in the mail to members
in January.

Lewis returns for an eighth series of sleuthing in Oxford
7:30am Friday 14th February 2014 in News
TOP TV detective drama Lewis is back and will be filmed in Oxford next month after an eighth series was commissioned by ITV.
Actors Kevin Whately and Laurence Fox return to the drama, which started in 2006, as detectives Robbie Lewis and James Hathaway.
In 2012, Mr Fox said the seventh series of Lewis would be the last because he and Mr Whately wanted to focus on other projects.
But the stars have been signed up for six new one-hour episodes set amid the dreaming spires of Oxford.
ITV's director of drama Steve November said: "Viewers have a great deal of respect for Inspector Lewis and a huge loyalty to Kevin Whately.
"Together with Laurence, he has forged a formidable partnership and we're delighted to have them back on ITV."
Executive producer Michele Buck added: "Lewis has a special place in the hearts of the ITV audience.
"Each story is intriguing and complex and viewers relish the fine writing, acting and excellent production values."
Morse creator Colin Dexter, who lives in Oxford, will continue as a consultant on all aspects of production.
The final scene of the seventh series of Lewis mimicked the last scene of its predecessor Inspector Morse – both of which were filmed in the beer garden at The Victoria Arms in Old Marston.
Pub manager Joe Caudle said: "I think that it is great that they are going to be doing another series.
"We were very honoured that we got the opportunity to help.
"With Inspector Morse and Lewis filmed here we do get a lot of people coming in and looking at the photos and sitting in the same place as the characters."
He added: "We would like to get Endeavour (the Morse prequel) here to get the full set."
Experience Oxfordshire chief executive Giles Ingram said: "It is extremely good news for tourism in Oxford.
"We see visitors from across the globe coming not just for big films like Harry Potter but TV as well."
He added: "Within the visitor information centre we run walking tours for Morse and Lewis and they have been very popular for a very long time."
Director Nick Renton will direct the first two-part drama entitled Entry Wounds. Details of where in Oxford it will be filmed have not been revealed.
