I just made this cake, its very dry. If you like moist cakes this is not for you. I baked it for 30 minutes five minutes less than they recommended. Would not make it again.

Made this recipe, but cut it in half and made 12 cupcakes. I baked them for 25 minutes. Happy husband said " Very good."

I will bake less time as it got a bit dry...and my husband still loved it. He doesn't like coconut so I covered with toasted pecans & stuck candy corn in for Fall. I cut the 13x9 in half & made 2 layers with some of the frosting in the middle. Will be making it again soon for more people!

Kütahya Otogarı
Modern civilization began right here in the Tigris-Euphrates river valley. Also known as the Fertile Crescent or Mesopotamia, this is the place where, six thousand years ago, agriculture, writing and mathematics were brought into widespread use.
The term "Middle East" comes from the British navy, which used it to describe the countries on the trade route from Europe to India and China. Everything from Afghanistan to Morocco may possibly be classified as "middle eastern", depending on whom you ask -- and when.
Only a partial list of past Empires in the middle eastern territory includes Sumeria, Babylonia, Persia, the Ottoman Empire and the Roman Empire!
When northern Europe was still lurking about in slimy cold stone castles playing chess, the Middle East was enjoying the flowers of poetry, luxurious craftsmanship, music and literature. In fact, the Renaissance in Europe was partly inspired by stories brought back from the middle east by travelers along the trade route.
Strategic location, religious history and the world's largest supply of crude oil have kept the Middle East at the center of world activity for centuries. The saga continues.

4.01/5 rDev +2.6%
Appearance - pours opaque for all intents and purposes. A finger of mocha forms and forms and falls to a thin but complete cover.
Aroma - molasses out of the shoot, roasty malts following with elements of coffee then Hershey's syrup. Some soy notes after a bit.
Taste - roasty, a little sweet, distinctively 'porterish' in flavor. More chocolate than coffee, the reverse of what I expected. Better coffee presence as the beer warms. A light abv going on, not pushy at all, very elegant.
Mouthfeel - smooth, a bit weighty, moderate carbonation. Well done.
Overall - I wouldn't mind seeing this one done again, I'd buy a case to last a few years. Saved this last one to review and decided to enjoy it tonight for no particular reason. Cheers!

3.63/5 rDev -7.2%
Served from a bottle into a Sam hybrid glass.
A: Dark. Very dark. No light shall penetrate this darkness.
S: Roasted malt and toffee.
T: Aforementioned roasted malt gives it some sweetness and some hop bitterness in the background helps to balance out. And there's no avoiding the taste of ethanol at this ABV.
M: Medium-to-thin and low carbonation.
O: This is a massive beer. I'm not too familiar with the style, so I'm not going to tread too far; this porter manages to possess some tasty flavor, which is no easy task at near 11%. It's dark as all get out, has a magnificent smell to it, and doesn't taste like pure rocket fuel, so I'd call it a success.

Poured from a slightly-chilled bottle into a Founders snifter. It pours out an extremely dark mahogany color (nearly black). Carbonation is extremely low. What little head there is quickly dissipates. The appearance may be a bit of a disappointment, but the nose makes up for it. I get some nice treacle and toffee notes, some roastiness, and a hint of booze.
The beer has a medium-full body and a wonderful malty flavor. Sweet toffee, caramel, and bready notes up front are followed by slightly smoky, licorice notes at mid-palate. The finish has a nice, slightly dry alcohol warmth. Very smooth, slightly creamy feel, but just a bit thin. Delicious dessert beer.
This is the second collaboration beer brewed in honor of Cincinnati Beer Week and I really enjoyed it. I thought it would be tough for the team of local brewers to hit another homer after the barleywine they brewed last year, but they pulled it off. This was a really nice brew.

3.75/5 rDev -4.1%
Appearance: black body with a tan half finger head
Aroma: dark fruit that reminds me of fig; mild-medium roasted coffee; just a touch of toasted caramel; touch of mocha; hint of sour mash
Flavors: nice dark fruits on the mid and aftertaste – raisin and fig; medium coffee; just a touch of bitterness that reminds me of a 70% dark chocolate bitterness; there is a tart note on the back and aftertaste; nothing really stands out; lack character
Mouthfeel: medium body; mild carbonation; smooth feel; alcohol does not stand out – just a little warmth; aftertaste seems short; lacks depth
To the Point: easy to drink for a 10.94 abv; the alcohol was not really a factor; nice tasting; fun to review but nothing special when just sitting back and sipping;
This porter paired well with a fine cigar - La Perla Habana Black Pearl Morado Robusto

4.1/5 rDev +4.9%
A: Poured in a pint glass, dark brown with a little carbonation on the sides. a small light brown head quickly dies.
S: Wow! dark fruit, figs and dates with a little tart cherry in there. a little roast on the end with a nice sweet caramel finish
T: The taste plays off how it smells. a very nice roasted, caramel malt, slight chocolate covered tart cherries in the middle with a coffee finish. cant taste the 11%!
M: perfectly carbonated, and smooth. like i said the alcohol isn't there, it goes down very easy.
O: this was a delicious baltic porter, a must try. Has a nice tart fruit, coffee aroma with a flavor that doesnt disappoint. the mouthfeel is great and it never weighs you down. Cheers!

12 ounce bottle. Served in a snifter, the beer pours dark brown/black with about a 1/4 inch light tan head that fizzled away quickly. There's a small amount of lacing. The brew smells like dark fruit (prunes, cherries, red grapes), roasted malt, caramel, and a bit of chocolate and coffee. The taste is pretty much just like the aroma, it tastes like roasted malt, dark fruit, bittersweet chocolate, nuts, and coffee. I do think the aroma is much fruitier compared to the taste, in which I think the bitter flavors are stronger. Mouthfeel/body is medium, it's a bit thin for a Baltic Porter, but also smooth with a good amount of carbonation. I liked this brew, it's definitely worth trying. $11.99 a 6-pack.

Poured into a snifter. Dark brown, not a huge head. Smells sweet, almost like a brandy, of dark--almost to the point of being burnt--caramel. Clings to glass quite well. Malty--almost like a barleywine or a quad. Perhaps I've had Baltic Porters that defy the style, or perhaps I haven't had enough of them, but this beer doesn't match up to to others I've had. Tastes include toffee, blackcurrant, and again, caramel. Quite good. Thanks to ksurkin for the brew.

Cincinnati Beer Week kicks off with a collaboration like no other. From mega brands like Rock Bottom to the ground roots efforts of Listermann, and traditional Christian Moerlein to non-traditional Triple Digit. Brewed at Rivertown but inspired by lank Slate, Great Crescent, and Fifty West... there's a lot of influence that goes into this festival's collaboration ale.
What results from the collage of influence is a demonstrative Baltic porter that's swallowed by a dark "bark" brown saturation that influences the aromas and makes me think things like "strong", "roast", and "robust". Its deep color eventually releases a lather of foam that caps the beer with a dense but condensed blanket of slight mocha-stained foam that further reinforces the beer's boldness. Light in retention and lace, the beer sparsely decorates the glass with lace.
Bold aromas of deeply toasted grains offer up alluring scents of heavy toast, Kona coffee, cocoa, walnut, and chicory but never crosses the fence into roast or charred territory. Instead, its restrained masculine scent in filled with vanilla, grape, and licorice-like spicy smoothness that balances the sweetness and accents its earthen components.
Its delicious taste is smooth and robust. Backed with the smooth caramel richness of malt, the beer further relies on the taste of nutty coffee grounds, bitter chocolate, light campfire embers, walnuts, grape and aniseed to build complexity, intrigue, and variance in taste as the beer marches across the taste buds. Its a beautiful flavor combination that weaves in yougurt-like tangy malts and port-like alcohols to close its taste.
Full bodied, yet smooth in texture- this Baltic porter lacks the quintessential smoothness of those long-lagered examples, but the beer instead celebrates its arid carbonation, dry toast, and slightly astringent char to assist a semi-dry finish and brandy-ish warmth.
Though there's a ton of Baltic porter character to be celebrated in this beer, its the rougher and more impatient flavors and textures that come to rise in the form of near-roast, slightly harsh bite, and rough alcohols that makes the beer seem "green" or maybe slightly immature.

3.86/5 rDev -1.3%
Serving Type: Bottle to pint glass.
Appearance (4.5): Dark, with light brown head.
Smell (3.75): At first I rated it a 4.5, because it is very aromatic, with hints of vanilla and black licorice. However, after letting it sit for a couple of minutes, I'm also getting a hint of what I privately refer to "creamy". I'm not sure what the technical term is, perhaps a slight undesired sourness?
Taste (3.75): Fortunately, the 'creaminess' or sourness is hardly present in the taste.
Mouthfeel (4.0).
Overall (4.0): Being from Cincinnati, and a strong supporter of the local scene, I have to admit my 4 my be a bit biased. Either way, I am impressed with this collaboration and it definitely is a strong source of pride to see so many breweries working together.

An attempted kidnapping at the Minot Walmart Friday morning has many people thinking about safety.
Ward County Sheriff Steve Kukowski says the number of application requests for Conceal Carry Permits was extremely high before Friday's incident.
He says people should always be aware of their surroundings and keep safety in mind whether they are in a parking lot or in their own neighborhood.
He says if a person chooses to carry a taser or stun gun, they do need to have a conceal carry permit.
(Sheriff Steve Kukowski, Ward County) "If you're going to have a stun gun or taser you do have to have a conceal carry permit weapons permit. The other thing you have to be mentally prepared to use those things. A lot of people buy a firearm, are you really prepared to use that and take a life? I think it would be much to have to put into affect."
Kukowski says safety in numbers is one of the best practices for staying safe.
He also cautions people to stay alert in any unusual circumstances that could lead to trouble.
(Sheriff Steve Kukowski, Ward County) "If you walk to your car and you see that next to you is a van parked or an individual sitting in there, there's no shame in walking back into the store and being safe. Be cautious of where you're at. If there's someone sitting in the passenger side of the vehicle that's parked next to you be aware of that. That's also another ploy that has been used."
Kukowski says if someone does try to harm you, the first thing you should do is make a lot of noise so that everyone around knows that you're in trouble.
Chantelle Pepple says she hopes people will have a greater appreciation for what "this monster took from this world and my family."

Routes Sorted
L to R R to L Alpha
When you put your faith in God, He always makes sure to put you in the place you are supposed to be; that is the mantra I use for myself when I am climbing in the mountains. So, this describes for me how I felt when I was climbing the East Ride of the Grand Teton. Though it is only a grade III, the East Ridge is, according to the rangers at Jenny Lake, one of the longest routes to be climbed on the peak. This is most likely because it is one of the routes that you are actually climbing on soonest; that is closest to the trailhead from where you start hiking; not that the actual technical nature of the route is the longest by any means, when it is really pretty short, and most of the route is just a slog. Don�t take that too lightly though; this route throws a lot at you over a great deal of varying terrain.
This route begins from the end of the terminal moraine of the Teton Glacier.
A standard rack should suffice; crampons and an axe would be very helpful too.

Thousands of guns were turned into the Hillsborough County Sheriff's Office over the weekend, in exchange for cash and Tampa Bay Rays and Lightning tickets.
During Operation Gun Swap, deputies were handed rifles, handguns -- and even two rocket launchers. All of the weapons were collected by the sheriff's office with no questions asked.
Believe it or not, the most dangerous-looking of the weapons may be the least. Headquarters Military Surplus owner Kevin Perkins says the items described as rocket launchers are essentially just empty shells.
"They're mostly made of fiberglass. Once they're fired, they're not reloaded. They're a one-shot deal," Perkins said Monday.
Most are from the Vietnam-era and are largely collectibles...more for display, than for posing any real danger.
"If you dropped it on your toe, maybe, other than that you're fine," Perkins laughed.
The sheriff's office is still working to sort through Saturday's findings. They will work with federal investigators to evaluate everything turned in, including a flute that was transformed into a handmade gun.
While some of the items, including the rocket launchers, are valuable, the sheriff's office won't see a dime back for the weapons.
"These weapons at some point in time will all be melted down," said Hillsborough County Sheriff's Office Captain Chad Chronister.
The sheriff's office paid for the gun buy back program through private donations and through their Seizure Asset Fund. The Rays and Lightning donated the $70,000 worth of tickets.

'Increase library efficiency before seeking $$'
Original post made on Sep 12, 2007

I wonder how many of these so called experts have actually used our libraries like the rest of us. How many have arrived at the library on a hot day to find it closed. How they have looked up the catalog to find the only available copy of a book is at a different library.
This sounds truly suspicious.
on Sep 12, 2007 at 9:39 am
How many of still think we have too many libraries?
We should close (rent the facilities??) the downtown and college terrace libraries and focus on Mitchell Park and the Main Library.
on Sep 12, 2007 at 10:18 am
Sharon Erickson is a treasure! She and her team do wonderful work.
"Several council members said the audit will provide the city the opportunity to demonstrate it is using existing resources efficiently, before the upcoming $45 million bond measure -- targeted for June or November of 2008."
The most efficient way to use existing resources would be to close branches. The decision to keep all branches open was made without any financial analysis. Our former library director, Paul Simpson, was run out of town when she did the analysis that resulted in her recommendation of one library.
The audit says that delivering services through five branches is more expensive than a single facility system. It requires duplication of effort the example on page 16 was Santa Clara which only needs 11 employees to staff customer service desks in its 80,000 square foot library, compared to Palo Alto that needs 14 employees to staff customer service desks in our total of 51,000 square feet (spread across 5 facilities).
Adopted budget for each branch:
Main $1,723,973
Children's $682,563 (from Sept. 07 when it reopens)
Mitchell Park $1,290,806
College Terrace $256,846
Downtown $252,205
The largest expenditures in the budget are salaries and collections. There's no way to find out how much is paid for maintenance, utility costs, etc. for each branch, because the city keeps budget and cost information by line item and by division (e.g. salaries, supplies) rather than by location.
However, we do know that fixing up all the facilities will be costly: "Estimates for Main Library renovations range from $9.5 to $13.5 million, while the Downtown Library needs about $5 million worth of work, according to a consultant's estimates." Web Link
From the library survey done last year:
- 71% of the respondents use the library from a few times/month to never. Only 28% are frequent users.
- 63% use the Main Library; 53% use Mitchell Park; 33% use the Children's Library. Only 13% use College Terrace and 24% Downtown.

BATON ROUGE, La. (AP) - U.S. Sen. Mary Landrieu and her Senate race challenger, U.S. Rep. Bill Cassidy, are jockeying for credit and prominence on a high-profile problem for many Louisiana residents: the skyrocketing cost of flood insurance premiums.
Cassidy, R-Baton Rouge, worked with other lawmakers to get a temporary fix through the House that would delay the higher premiums for one year, while Landrieu, D-New Orleans, couldn't get her long-term proposal for a three-year delay moving.
Under pressure from local Louisiana officials, Landrieu agreed to push Cassidy's one-year reprieve idea in the Senate and was successful in advancing it through the Senate Appropriations Committee as part of a homeland security spending bill.
But Landrieu's not acknowledging the idea started with her Senate race competitor.
"For a year now, I've been leading the effort in Congress to stop flood insurance from rising out of reach for the average homeowner and business owner," Landrieu said in an e-mail to supporters describing the Senate committee approval of the one-year delay provision.
Cassidy's office pointed out that the Landrieu proposal received backing from the House first - and with Cassidy's name on it.
"This is a good first step but I encourage Senate leadership to move swiftly and pass these provisions before the full U.S. Senate. Louisianans need certainty, not partisanship," the Republican congressman said in a statement.
The lawmaker who can successfully take credit for helping thousands of people across south Louisiana from seeing their insurance bills spike could parlay that into an important talking point on the campaign trail, in advance of the November 2014 election.
A victory on flood insurance could showcase an ability to get things done for voters back home even in the partisan gridlock that stalls most action in Congress.
At issue are homeowners whose flood insurance bills have historically been "grandfathered" at lower rates since they followed the rules in place at the time they bought or built their home.
Under a bipartisan overhaul of the flood insurance program last year, many of these homeowners face higher premiums when new flood maps are issued. Homeowners and local leaders say the increases could make the insurance too costly to maintain.
The change was designed to cut the federal government's costs for a program that has required more than $24 billion in bailouts since its creation in 1968. But Louisiana officials say as the new flood maps are being drawn up, FEMA isn't taking into account protection efforts like new and stronger levees and fortifications.
Both Landrieu and Cassidy are claiming they are the reason the head of the National Flood Insurance Program, David Miller, is heading to Louisiana in August to meet with local officials and hear more about the insurance premium hike concerns.
Landrieu's office announced the visit of Miller, who is associate administrator of FEMA.
"Mr. Miller's trip is critical for FEMA to understand how these rate increases could dramatically burden homeowners and small business owners in Louisiana and throughout the country. I appreciate that Mr. Miller accepted my invitation and look forward to the visit in August," the Democratic senator said in a statement.
Within hours, Cassidy's office released information saying the congressman and three of his Louisiana colleagues in the House "made the first request" for Miller to visit Louisiana, in a June letter.
"Dr. Cassidy has been a leader in the fight to protect Louisiana homeowners and businesses from unjustified NFIP rate hikes. Dr. Cassidy is glad that Associate Administrator Miller will honor this request and visit Louisiana soon," Cassidy spokesman John Cummins said in the statement.

Cooperstown Crier
---- — We hope Mother Nature brings us some sunshine and spring weather this weekend. But if not, there is a predominantly inside event coming up that should help get visitors thinking about spring.
The eighth annual Earth Festival will be held Saturday at Milford Central School. With the collaboration with Spring Garden Day and the Go Green! Fashion Show, this year's event is expected to be bigger and better than ever!
Earth Festival is an environmentally focused, interactive event featuring exhibits, activities, vendors and entertainment, all with a fun, earth-friendly twist.
Kicking off the day will be the Delaware-Otsego Audubon Society's popular pre-festival bird walk. The traditional Earth Festival information and vendor fair will take place from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. in the gymnasium.
Master Gardeners of Cornell Cooperative Extension Schoharie and Otsego Counties will return with Spring Garden Day in conjunction with Earth Festival, featuring classes on a variety of gardening topics suitable for those new and experienced to gardening. Dr. Jonathan Comstock of Cornell University will speak at 11:15 a.m. His presentation, on climate change and its impact on the growing season and gardens, is free and open to the public.
Back again by popular demand is the Milford Central School Education Foundation's "recycled fashion" show. Students and adults will showcase wearable art they made or embellished themselves with recycled and waste materials. It is still not too late to participate. Those interested can sign up right up until the day of the event. Participants are asked to be at the school at 10 a.m. for judging.
This time around it will not be a runway style event, but instead participants will pose like statues throughout the day, according to organizers. For more information about the Go Green! Fashion Show, call 286-3349 or email firstname.lastname@example.com.
The EcoArt/Trendy Trash Contest and expanded children's activities led by Milford Central School students will be featured. Earth Festival also provides an opportunity to get rid of some of that clutter at home and perhaps may encourage some spring cleaning. Event organizers invite attendees to drop off Styrofoam (white only), bubble wrap, empty inkjet cartridges, cellphones, eyeglasses, videotapes, CDs and used nylon monofilament fishing line at no charge. In addition previously non recyclables such as toothpaste tubes, cereal bags or lining, all brand pens, mechanical pencils and markers, including caps, all empty chips bags, Elmer's glue bottles and diaper packaging will be taken.
Empire Recycling will be back with the free Confidata Shredder service from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m.
Shoes and sneakers will also be collected for a minimal charge, through a program sponsored by Nike.

TOLEDO - The University of Toledo men's tennis team commences the 2013 season this weekend with three matches in two days. The Rockets will travel to West Lafayette, IN on Saturday for back-to-back matches inside the Schwartz Tennis CenterPurdue at 9:00 a.m. and IUPUI at 2:00 p.m. UT will then head to Indianapolis for a matinee contest against Butler at approximately 1:00 p.m. on Sunday.
The Rockets have won four of their previous five season openers, including a sweep of Northwestern Ohio and Bradley on Jan. 13, 2012. UT defeated the Racers 6-1 in the first match and took all seven points from the Braves for the sweep. Since 2000, the Rockets have a record of 5-8 in season opening contests under head coach Al Wermer.
"It's been a great first week of practice," Wermer said. "The guys came back very fit. They're hitting the ball well, but most importantly they have a very good outlook. We're staring adversity in the face this weekend with three solid opponents. This challenge will be good for the team and a fun start to our season."
UT is aiming to break its losing streak against Big Ten teams in Saturday's first match. The Rockets have dropped 23 consecutive matches to the Big Ten, including seven previous contests against Purdue. UT last recorded a win over a Big Ten squad when it defeated Indiana on Feb. 4, 2006. The Boilermakers claimed a 1-6 victory over the Rockets in their most recent meeting on Feb. 5, 2010.
The Midnight Blue and Gold have won all eight previous matches versus IUPUI. UT won a tight contest last season in Toledo, 4-3. The Butler match was originally scheduled to be played at the Schwartz Center, but has since been moved to the Bulldog's campus in Indianapolis. UT has won four of the last five matches against Butler, but the Bulldogs lead the all-time series 4-7. The Rockets won last year's match in Toledo, 7-0.
Wermer begins his 17th year at the helm of the men's tennis program. This year's group features three seniors – Terence Weigand, Bryand Dudzik and junior-college transfer Francisco Stuardo. Weigand and Dudzik provide leadership and experience to the lineup, while Stuardo is expected to contribute right away.
Five sophomores fill up the majority of remaining playing spots, including 2012 All-MAC Second Teamer Tomas Stillman. The Harlingen, TX native will be at the top of the lineup following a strong finish in the fall campaign. Stillman advanced to the final round of the 128-player qualifying draw at the USTA Futures Tourney in Niceville, FL back on Nov. 5.
Third-year player Ben Brocker is the lone junior of the group. The southpaw brings leadership and will be heavily counted on this season.
Wermer announced yesterday that freshman Matt Wareti is no longer with the team, reducing the roster to nine players. The Columbus, OH native went 5-2 in singles play last fall.
The Purdue match is a homecoming for UT assistant coach Paul Foley. Foley was a four-year letterwinner from 2007-10. The former Boilermaker helped knock off the Rockets each of his four seasons on the team. Foley won his match at No. 4 the last time the two teams met.

The council, which reconvened Tuesday night after last week's council meeting was adjourned, approved issuing bonds totaling more than $54 million for construction of the new school along Viking Drive, as well as paving projects as part of the city's participation in the ATRIP program.
The city council agreed to $52 million in funding for the new school. An additional $2.46 million will be used in the paving projects, including $500,000 for a paving project on Whitehouse Road.
"This is great news," Jasper Mayor Sonny Posey said following Tuesday's meeting. "Most people have no idea what all has gone into this, but I've enjoyed every minute of it."
Posey credited Matt Adams, senior vice president of public finance for Raymond James-Morgan Keegan financial services in Birmingham, with making the process of the bond issuance a reality.
Adams, who's also a graduate of Walker High School, and Birmingham attorney Heyward Hosch of Maynard, Cooper & Gale law firm, addressed the bond issuance with the council Tuesday night. Hosch, a well-respected Birmingham attorney, practices in the area of municipal, public and commercial finance including representation as bond counsel in Alabama of cities, counties, boards of education, hospitals and health care organizations.
"We've been working with the greatest people who are involved with these type financial transactions," Posey said, referring to Adams and Hosch. "Working with $54 million is not a small transaction, but they made it a pleasure to work to getting to this point."
The more than $54 million will be financed over a 30-year period, Posey said, with the city paying an interest rate of 4.15 percent.
Posey said acquiring the low interest rate is huge for the city.
"Ninety-four percent of all bond issuances are rated higher than that," he said.
Jasper City Schools Superintendent Robert Sparkman, who was in attendance at Tuesday's meeting, said he's pleased with the progress he's seen on the school project.
Bids for initial work on the project, including clearing the property, will be opened Tuesday, and work on clearing the property along Viking Drive is expected to begin in early June, Sparkman said.

Plea deal reached in fatal crash in VtJuly 04,2013Plea deal made
in deadly crash
HYDE PARK A Vermont driver, accused of killing a motorcyclist in a crash and then leaving the scene of the accident, has reached a plea deal with prosecutors that would result in a sentence of up to five years.
Benjamin Miller, 19, admitted Tuesday to huffing dust cleaner moments before the crash in June 2012 in Johnson.
Police say his car slammed into the back of the motorcycle and the rider rolled onto their hood, then underneath the car.
The crash killed Ronald Turgeon, 56, of Berlin, N.H. Witnesses said the car drove away afterward.
In the plea agreement, prosecutors dropped a charge of gross negligent operation of a motor vehicle resulting in death.

(WMC-TV) – Memphis Police Department identified the man found dead early Sunday morning at 1473 East Alcy Road.
According to police, Calvin Blakely, 36, was found shot to death around 7 a.m. Sunday at 1473 East Alcy Road.
Officers arrived on the scene and found him lying on the sidewalk in front of a house, which is near a church.
Justin Young and his dad heard two gun shots around 2 a.m. Sunday.
"It was like real pow, like a boom or a thump sound, but a louder one...like somebody smacked a brick wall," explained Young.
Young said he and his father came outside, saw two cars drive away, but did not see or hear anyone get hit.
Hours later, police knocked on their door and told them a man was found dead.
"They had the street blocked off. There was a body there, laying in the driveway right there. So, we were like 'when we looked we didn't see nobody last night'," Young said.
Young stated he does not think the victim was shot in front of the house.
"We didn't see nobody running and, like I said, we didn't hear nobody holler. When somebody gets shot, you're gonna hear them. We didn't hear none of that. So, (we) came up with the conclusion that somebody must have just dropped him off right there and kept going," continued Young.
Currently, police do not have any suspects in custody.
If you have any information, you are asked to call Crime Stoppers at (901) 528-CASH.

UPDATED: 13 dead in Navy Yard shootings
A U.S. Park Police officer moves bystanders back from the scene of a shooting at the Washington Navy Yard in Washington Monday. The U.S. Navy said several people were injured and there were fatalities in the shooting at the Navy Yard in Washington D.C. (JASON REED/REUTERS)
WASHINGTON — A mass shooting Monday morning at the Washington Navy Yard left at least 13 people dead, including a suspected gunman. Three others were wounded.
District of Columbia Police Chief Cathy Lanier said police have identified the gunman as a civilian naval contractor, Aaron Alexis, 34, of Fort Worth, Texas, who was identified by fingerprints. He was a full-time Navy reservist until 2011, last serving with a logistics support squadron in Fort Worth. He reportedly used a friend's identification to get into a building at the Washington Navy Yard and engaged in multiple shoot-outs with police before being fatally shot.
Police remained engaged in a manhunt for another man believed connected to Alexis.
Three victims, including a police officer, were taken to MedStar Washington Hospital Center. In a news conference, Dr. Janis Orlowski, the center's chief medical officer, said the chances of their survival were good.
The police officer was shot in both of his legs. The other two victims are both female civilians.
"We have no indication of any motive at this time," Lanier said at her second news conference of the day.
The FBI was taking the reins of the investigation, the police chief said. Lanier credited D.C. police and the U.S. Park Police for preventing even more bloodshed in the morning rampage.
"I think the actions by the police officers, without question, helped to reduce the numbers of lives lost," Lanier said, calling the actions of first responders "nothing short of heroic."
Because the attack happened at a military facility in the capital, there were immediate fears that terrorism might be involved. D.C. Mayor Vincent Gray told reporters there was no evidence one way or another on terrorism, and he confirmed there was uncertainty about reports of additional gunmen.
"We don't know for certain if there were other shooters," the mayor said.
At an earlier news conference, Lanier said two men, one white and one black, between 40 and 50, were sought for questioning. The white male was said to have been dressed in a tan military-style uniform with a beret-like hat, the black male wearing an olive-colored military-style uniform.
Later in the afternoon, police confirmed that the man in the tan outfit had contacted authorities and was cleared.
Workplace for 3,000
The shooting began inside the Naval Sea Systems Command Headquarters building, a workplace for 3,000 people, according to a news release from Naval District Washington.
Contractor Sean Carroll described a chaotic scene on the second floor once the shooting started near a cafeteria atrium in the building.
"People didn't realize what you were supposed to do," he said. "Just heard the sounds. It was really loud. You could hear the gunshots. That's a surreal thing. You're not really thinking. But it wasn't like, 'Hey, what's going on?' You know with the world we live in. You know, 'Oh my God. This is Fort Hood.'"
Fort Hood in Texas was the scene in 2009 of a shooting that left 12 dead.
Carroll said the shooting did not sound like an automatic weapon used by military personnel.
"I heard the shots," he said. "I heard people scream. ... It sounded like 'pop, pop, pop.' I could not characterize how staccato it was. It was not rapid fire. It was not automatic weapons. It was seven or eight shots in a couple of groups. This was over several minutes. The first shots seemed like a minute. Then when I ran I heard another couple of, not bursts, but 'pop, pop, pop.""
Patricia Ward, a logistics management specialist, told gathered reporters that she was near the cafeteria area when she heard some shots, followed by a break and then more shots.
She and others fled the building. Someone pulled a fire alarm to alert colleagues.
Marathon team responds
Witnesses described one gunman dressed in dark clothing with what appeared to be a double-barrel shotgun, perched on a mezzanine and firing at a cafeteria atrium below. They said he appeared to be targeting who he was shooting at, rather than firing randomly.
The gunman was described by witnesses as carrying an AR-15 rifle, a double-barrel shotgun and a handgun.
An elite team from the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives was dispatched to the scene Monday, part of the same ATF Special Response Team Canine Program that helped capture the suspect in the Boston Marathon bombing.
Employees at the Navy Yard complex, a former shipyard and ordnance plant turned naval administrative center, consist of civilians, service members and contract support personnel. They are responsible for engineering, building, purchasing and maintaining Navy ships, submarines and combat systems. The Naval Sea Systems Command is the largest of the Navy's five systems commands.
As word spread of a shooting at the Navy Yard, the end of the D.C. morning rush hour began to look like the crush of peak hour. At least two bridges into the nation's capital were closed to traffic and commuters were forced to inch along side roads to get in or turn back and work from home.
Subway service was briefly interrupted, but no additional police presence was apparent. That argued in favor of a localized incident that didn't spark fears of a wider terror plot. Security was also stepped up around the U.S. Capitol grounds and the Senate and House office buildings.
For tourists visiting the nation's capital, a stepped-up police presence was noticeable in front of the Washington Monument and other attractions.

ARDMORE, OK-- Oklahoma governor Mary Fallin, held a press conference today along with city leaders and health professionals, to reveal a plan to reduce smoking-related deaths.
Fallin would lead an initiative petition drive on the smoking issue. Governor Fallin also launched a website, www.DontSmokeOnMe.com, where Oklahomans can sing up to get more information.
One local restaurant in Ardmore, is already taking a stand to help keep a healthier environment.
Chealsi Wright has been working at Budro's Rib Joint for about 7 months now and said since the restaurant went smoke free in January, it smells and feels better.
"Everything smells better. My clothes don't stink when I get home anymore, and there's more kids that come in here. I'm seeing more families come in and I think it's just great," Wright said.
Co-owner Caren Braunagel of the restaurant said it was a decision they've been battling with for several years now, but said it had to be done to help keep a healthier environment.
"It's healthier, I had a death in my family that was totally related to smoking, and that's part of it. We also have grandchildren that are running around here now. A two-year-old and a six month-old baby," Braunagel said.
According to the CDC, exposure to second hand smoke or sometimes called environmental tobacco smoke, causes nearly 50-thousand deaths among adults in the United States each year.
One local resident said she's glad the restaurant went smoke free because she can now bring her son to Budro's again.
"We like to bring my son here now because it's smoke free and it's good for him. It makes your meals much more enjoyable," Resident Carol McLean said.
Enjoyable for everyone that's been coming here for years. Resident Dave Rickard is a long time resident who's a fan of the now smoke free restaurant.
"I love them going non-smoking. I've been a patron of Budro's since they were over on fourth and Commerce at the old tower restaurant so I guess I've been coming since they opened it," Rickard said.

Submit Bible questions, through our easy to use form, to our team of mature Christians known as the Email Evangelists.
The opinions and hypotheses of scholars vary widely regarding when the New Testament books were first recorded. Some view it as a collection of fables and myths verbally passed on by storytellers for generations before being recorded. Other scholars believe that most of the New Testament was written before the fall of Jerusalem and the destruction of the temple in 70 A.D.
In his book, Redating the New Testament, John A. T. Robinson demonstrates that the NT books were written relatively EARLY. In spite of the late dates assigned by some scholars, it is possible to determine the date of each New Testament book. God the Father and Jesus Christ specifically chose certain deeply converted men to write the most important and magnificent book in the world - and make his written word available to all - through the power of the Holy Spirit.
Amazing as it sounds, the entire New Testament was recorded by only EIGHT men! Six of them were chosen apostles of Jesus. Three were eyewitnesses of his life and ministry - the apostles Matthew, Peter and John. Two were physical brothers of Jesus - James and Jude. One, Paul, was specially called to be the apostle to the Gentiles and for three years was personally taught by Jesus Christ (in Arabia) through visions. The last two were Mark - who wrote the Gospel of Mark under Peter's supervision - and Luke, who wrote the Gospel of Luke and Acts under Paul's supervision.
The apostle John had the distinguished role of collecting all the books extant and completing the canonization of the New Testament somewhere between 96 to 99 A.D. John was of the Aaronic (Levitical priest) blood line, making him uniquely qualified for the task of finalizing God's word for man.
The New Testament was written by, or its writing was supervised by, the chosen apostles of Jesus Christ. We can therefore have full faith and confidence that the original Greek text - as preserved in the Byzantine text - is the very Word of God.
* Year and Year ranges (e.g. 63 to 64 A.D.) denote when books are completed but not necessarily the year they were first recorded.
** Acts 1 to 13 was written by Luke when Paul was in a Caesarea prison (58-60 A.D.). Luke also penned Acts 13 to 28 when he traveled on Paul's journeys.

Speaking of physical attacks against people doing political work, did anyone see in the news that McCain campaign volunteer who was attacked and had a "B" scratched into her cheek? Web Link
I hope the firecracker thrower and the "B" attacker are both brought to justice.
Is it normal for campaigning to occur at council meetings?
on Oct 24, 2008 at 11:06 am
"Is it normal for campaigning to occur at council meetings?"
The answer is YES...both from the council members...as well as the speakers from the audience!!! Has always been so (in the 30+ years I have resided in Pleasanton) and will always be so!!! That is democracy in action!!!
on Oct 24, 2008 at 12:26 pm
Watch the news - the McCain worker made it all up. The biggest hint was that she scratched the "B" backwards - I guess she didn't realize how a mirror works.
Unfortunately, given the divisive personal smear campaign being run by McCain & Palin against Obama, something like this was bound to happen. Words incite action. Our country will be lucky if these kinds of incidents are the worst that occurs.
on Oct 24, 2008 at 12:29 pm
Yea, I saw it today. The lady made it up apparently. Maybe though she's got an abusive boyfriend to give her those black eyes.
Council Watcher,
Thanks for the answer! Seems more like politics in action.

This course will explore the field of industrial/organizational psychology in its broadest sense. We will examine the psychology of work behavior from both a management perspective, with its emphasis on efficiency and productivity; and from a worker's point of view, including concerns about career development, job satisfaction and stress. Work-related issues in many types of organizations (e.g., educational institutions, social service agencies, profit-oriented manufacturing companies) will be considered.

The fundamental objective of Room 1 is to stimulate curiosity and questions - we want to encourage students to discover, through experience and observation, explanations of various phenomena that occur.
The 5 workstations:
The first laboratory workstation is dedicated entirely to moment, torque.
It contains various experiments such as the "torque wrench", where there are spanners of different lengths and a threaded board.
The strength in our arm is the same, but by using different spanners we get different results, until the screw breaks inside the board. Why?
The students use a pneumatic screwdriver, like those available along the assembly line, to screw a clutch to the crankcase and observe the forces that occur.
What happens? What forces are applied to the hand? What similar phenomena occur in our normal daily lives? We will also study how various types of material behave under impact.
The wheel on a racing bike rotates around its shaft, but what helps to reduce friction to a minimum?
How can we decrease losses in power and exploit all the engine power output? We take a real-life pit stop to discover the world of friction.
A Desmo heart beats inside every Ducati, but what is the Desmodromic system exactly? What physics principles does it use?
How does it differ from the traditional timing system?
Two seats with a racing look, sustained by two different spring systems.
Jumping onto the seats everyone incredibly reaches the same frequency. Is it magic or are we using physics principles without realizing it? And if so, which?

'Dance Fusion' was a one off class that fused Zumba moves with ballroom dance inspired moves from the regular Fitsteps class.
Chris Dennis, Group exercise co-ordinator at the leisure centre said: "We were delighted with the turn out for the class, we had a full house and everyone seemed to have a great time.
"We are pleased to be able to make our own small contribution to help support those affected by Typhoon Haiyan.
"I am grateful to everyone who came along to support the event and of course to the instructors who gave up their Saturday afternoon to run the class. We all had so much fun I think we'll be running another class very soon."
Residents, who couldn't make it to the class, still have time to donate to the appeal at the Westminster Lodge reception desk.
