Senior Marc-Richard Culmer hit for the cycle in his final collegiate game and the WVU Tech baseball team dropped four games to NCAA DII foe Alderson-Broaddus University last weekend.
The Golden Bears finished 2014 with a record of 18-27, while the Battlers improved to 26-14.
Culmer was 9-for-14 at the plate for the series, registering four RBIs and scoring three runs while hitting three doubles, a triple and a home run. The senior also stole his 19th base of the season and 38th of his career as a Golden Bear.
Tech lost by scores of 4-1, 7-1, 7-3 and 13-12.
In the first game on Saturday, Tech's seventh-inning run occurred when Nick Quintero brought in Zach Maynard on a hit to third base. Mike Ryan led off for the Golden Bears, knocking a single to right field, then Maynard came in to pinch run and eventually got the score.
Pitcher Josh Smetana (4-3) struck out five batters, including three in the first two innings, but gave up six walks, two hits and three runs in the loss. Smetana put in four innings of work before Zack Thomas came in for relief, striking out three Battlers while giving up three hits and one run.
In the second game, A-B got off to an early 2-0 lead to get enough cushion for the win at Jack Funk Field.
The Golden Bears managed a run in the bottom of the fourth inning at Douglas M. Epling Field after Culmer reached base on his first double of the day. Zach Sizemore, who was 1-for-3 in game two, plated Culmer off a single to left field.
Will Patteson (1-1) was the pitcher of record for Tech. Patteson, who was coming off a win against Ohio Christian University, allowed four runs and six hits in slightly more than four innings pitched. Relief pitcher DJ Burgess put in about two innings of work, giving up five hits and three runs.
In the first outing on Sunday, Tech took a 2-0 lead after scoring one run each in the first and second inning. The Battlers cut the lead to 2-1 in the bottom of the fourth and the teams were tied up 3-3 by the end of the sixth inning.
A-B's Marquis Collier hit a walk-off grand slam to lift the Battlers to the 7-3 victory in the bottom of the seventh after Tech was held hitless and stranded two on base in the top of the same inning.
Ryan was 1-for-3 at the plate with a solo home run. Culmer tallied another double while driving in a run.
Ryan Windon drew the start for Tech, allowing six hits and one run in about four innings. Josh Spears (2-2) was the losing pitcher for the Golden Bears, giving up three runs (one earned) on one hit.
Tech dominated in the start of the Sunday nightcap, plating seven runs in the top of the first on seven hits, sparked by Culmer's two-run homer.
The hosts chipped away in the bottom of the inning, scoring a pair of unearned runs to cut the lead to 7-2. The Battlers took the lead in the fourth on eight hits for a score of 12-7. Tech tied the game in the sixth with four runs, starting with a Culmer triple to right field.
Tech was held to just one hit, Culmer's double, in the top of the seventh after A-B managed what proved to be the winning run in its prior at-bat.
Spears (2-3) came in as relief for a little over two innings to get the loss for Tech, giving up four hits and one run while striking out one Battler. Junior Craig Johnson started on the mound, allowing seven hits and eight runs (four earned).
Tech swept in four games by Battlers

There was a story recently here on BTB that read - "the Cowboys are becoming a resilient, determined squad". I thought long and hard about that. Really? Are they resilient. Determined? Not to call out one of BTB's better writers but what games are you watching this season? If I may ask? Yes, the Cowboys have won games, but look at the opponents they have won against. A pretty middling bunch. Now look at the winning teams they have played - the real winning teams, not the ones with merely a "winning" record. The Saints, Bronco's, etc. Against those types of teams we have laid the proverbial egg (or thrown that danged signature INT - ouch). Romo has looked his normal pedestrian record setting self (Danny White anyone??). The defense is almost comical, except for the line and Jason Hatcher (monster).
I'm sorry, I almost got sucked into grabbing that big frosty mug of bright blue kool-aid after reading the story I mentioned above and start chugging away. Ohhh, am I thirsty for it, too! But here's the reality - Dallas hasn't proven anything so far this season. They've BARELY beaten the teams they should beat and lost to the one's they can't keep up with yet.
What does this mean to me? It means I don't trust this team as far as I can throw Travis Frederick. I don't think I could throw him very far, either.
Case in point - the Raiders. The Raiders, folks! Dallas comes out stinks the place up, lets Oakland build a sizeable lead while running around with their collective pants down on National T.V. and then either the Raiders suddenly remembered they were going against the script and started playing to their level OR the Raiders got tired OR the Raiders started thinking about the turkey waiting for them at home. Dallas simply did what they do best, made some plays against a stinker of a team. Resilient? Determined? Uhhh, maybe not.
I will not take the bait until they dangle something like organic wild caught salmon in front of me. And that organic salmon comes in the name of a win in the playoffs. Against an actual NFL calibre team. Not the Raiders, not the Giants. The Eagles? puhlease.... the Eagles are wrapped up in the same euphoria Dallas is - it's called, the NFC East sucks eggs this year. At least Dallas holds a tie breaker but, honestly, if this division comes down to a shootout against the Eagles to win the division then Dallas has a whole lot more problems than even I think they do.
Once again, sorry for the bummer post. But I need to keep reality firmly in my crosshairs because one more win by Dallas this weekend and even I will start getting weak at the sight of that scrumptious kool-aid that I so, so very much am thirsting for. But, NO!, not until they PROVE they belong with the big boys of the NFL. Where they belong.
5 Superbowl Rings teaches you what to look for. I haven't seen it yet this year. My eyes are peeled, though.

TORONTO--Canadian bonds are edging higher along with U.S. Treasurys Monday, with investors treading carefully ahead of the Federal Reserves policy announcement on Wednesday.
Canada's two-year bond yield was at 0.932% Monday, from 0.936% last Friday, according to electronic trading platform CanDeal. The 10-year bond yielded 1.696%, from 1.705%. Bond yields move inversely to bond prices.
U.S. Treasurys gained ground after news personal consumption expenditures, the Fed's preferred measure for inflation, was up only 1.0% year-over-year in March.
The "core" PCE index, which excludes volatile food and energy prices, was up 1.1% from a year earlier.
Both are below the U.S. central bank's target of 2%.
Markets have priced in a dovish tilt in the U.S. central bank's statement at the conclusion of its two-day policy meeting Wednesday.
"At the current yield levels, the market has effectively priced in the go-slow theme," said Adrian Miller, director of fixed income strategy at GMP Securities in New York.
"What needs to be verified is [whether] the market is right in its expectations that the Fed's comments are going to be a little more dovish," he said.
Investors will be looking for wording in the Fed's policy statement that suggests its current program of providing stimulus through purchasing bonds will stay intact at least through the third quarter, Mr. Miller said.
There are no significant data releases in Canada on Monday.
The latter part of the week also includes other potentially market-moving events, notably the European Central Bank's policy announcement Thursday and U.s. non-farm payrolls data for April on Friday.

When it comes to insurance, even the most well versed can sometimes struggle with their deductibles, copays, coinsurance, maximum out-of-pocket – and that is all before you start looking at the actual benefits. When you have students accustom to their healthcare system, that uses different health insurance terms, and add a language barrier to that, you have a situation that can be pretty complicated when trying to introduce students to the US healthcare system!
Video Content
Everything we do at ISI is designed to make things easier for students, from easy-to-understand benefit tables, our school requirements database so students can check if our plans will work for their school, and of course our multilingual customer support team.
However, in the summer of 2013, we embarked on a mission to make insurance even easier to understand and the first step was to integrate more visuals into what we do. Our "Overview of the US Healthcare System" was the first step, which is a short six minute video designed to educate student (in a fun way) about how the healthcare system in the USA works. It is perfect for student orientations and for school websites, where it can be embedded (at not cost).
We then set out to create four shorter videos which explain our main products – students can watch the videos to determine which plan is right for them. These videos are available on our homepage and respective product pages. All with the main goal to make insurance easier to understand.
Language Content
The next step in better understanding is to provide more of our content in the student's native language. With students from all around the world, this is no easy task, but we are excited to announce that our US Healthcare video now has subtitles in seven different languages: Spanish, Portuguese, Korean, Russian, Japanese, Chinese and Arabic. And, we expect more to come in the future.
We have also been providing customer support in Chinese and Spanish for some time, and we have now extended this to our website! Students can view the whole website in either language – and then contact us for assistance in those languages.
You can learn more about our language capabilities in our recent press release on the subject.
With the complex nature of insurance, coupled with language barriers and background differences, it is really important to make sure students understand the products they are purchasing and what they cover so they can determine if it is right for them. Hopefully with the videos, and growing language capabilities, we will continue to be an industry leader in helping students understand insurance!

A type of card deck used for divination, personal development, spiritual growth, and the cultivation of intuition and psychic ability. The term "Tarot" is a French derivative of the Italian tarocchi, meaning "triumphs" or "trumps". The Tarot deck consists of seventy-eight cards divided into two parts, the twenty-two-card Major Arcana, and the fifty-six cards of the Minor Arcana. In 1910 English occultist Arthur Edward Waite published his interpretation of the Tarot deck, with images designed by Pamela Coleman Smith. Waite drew in part on the Hermetic Kabbalah, a blend of true Kabbalah and Hermeticism favoured by occultists, including the Order of the Golden Dawn, of which Waite was a member. The Rider-Waite deck set the standard for nearly all Tarot decks to follow. The Tarot is best used as a tool for seeing one's life from new perspectives. Skillful reading requires good intuition and an ability to see the bigger picture.

Capacity shortages are beginning to appear. A reserve margin deficit of two gigawatts is projected for the summer of 2016 for the Midcontinent Independent System Operator (MISO), serving the northern plains states. Reserve shortages are also projected for the Electric Reliability Council of Texas (ERCOT) by as early as this summer.
The United States has the finest electricity system in the world, with prices half those of Europe. But this system is under attack from foolish energy policies. Coal-fired power plants are closing, unable to meet EPA environmental guidelines. Nuclear plants are aging and beset by mounting losses, driven by negative pricing from subsidized wind systems. Without a return to sensible energy policies, prepare for higher prices and electrical grid failures.

Near life-sized images of bombed buildings show the devastation of the battles. Film footage of combat chronicles the warfare. Visitors can examine World War I technology, including artifacts like a vintage machine gun, which was the ultimate new weapon of the war.
In a triage tent, with its accompanying ambulance, stories of the war's wounded and ill are told, with special focus on shell shock as well as the use and horrific results of poison gas. Injured soldiers were transported by stretcher bearers to waiting motorized ambulances, which were quickly replacing ones that were horse drawn.
For the first time, the triage method was used extensively to determine the order in which the wounded were to be treated. Those with the most severe injuries were transferred to hospitals far behind the battle lines. Never before had such a large number of women worked so close to the battlefields. Thousands of female nurses toiled alongside doctors for hours upon hours to care for the wounded men.
The exhibit also explores the home front of World War I. In a draft office, visitors can learn how civilians enlisted in the war. In the United States, the draft was an extremely divisive issue, Center for History officials said. Draft supporters were concerned that there would not be enough volunteer enlistees. Some who opposed the draft thought it was detrimental to the idea of American freedom. After the draft was put into effect, President Wilson tried to keep the focus on volunteerism by labeling the draft the "Selective Service" and dubbing soldiers "servicemen."
Visitors can experience the culture of the World War I era, whose writers, artists and composers include Ernest Hemingway and e.e.cummings. A cookbook, "Kitchen Patriots," published by the Food Conservation Committee of St. Joseph County, Ind., offers a glimpse into the strong efforts made by American families to support the war. Victory gardens, along with "wheatless" and "meatless" days, were ways to preserve food for the growing army.

Medium Access Control Facing the Reality of WSN Deployments
Download Now Free registration required
Executive Summary
Although research on algorithms and communication protocols in Wireless Sensor Networks (WSN) has yielded a tremendous effort so far, most of these protocols are hardly used in real deployments nowadays. Several reasons have been put forward in recent publications. In this paper, the authors further investigate this trend from a Medium Access Control (MAC) perspective by analyzing both the reasons behind successful deployments and the characteristics of the MAC layers proposed in the literature. The effort allocated to develop suitable protocols from scratch every new deployment could however be minimized by using already existing contributions which provide code reuse and adaptive protocols.

"I said at the beginning of the season, come on out and I think you'll like what you see. And I think the people who came out, they like what they see because they see discipline. They see the approach is right, they're practicing right. All the little things. Everybody has a different saying. Rod says pound the rock. (Joe) Paterno said take care of the little things, the big things will take care of itself. Al Davis said block, tackle and be right, baby. The successful ones all say the same thing, they say it differently. We're doing it the right way, that's why I know it'll work."Birk's Eye View: Millen: "We're doing it the right way, that's why I know it'll work." Matt Millen spoke to the media today and made a complete fool of himself. It pained me to read some of his comments. It literally hurt knowing that this man is running my favorite team. I'll have a full post later today on all the ridiculous things he said.
(cheerfully stolen from a gene wojciechowski colum over at espn.com, because it's priceless....( 17: The most underpaid person in the NFL is … Whoever had to write Millen's bio in the 2008 Lions media guide. Millen probably gave the author a choice: Scrub the Ford Field roof with a toothbrush or write the bio. Excerpts from the bio: • For Lions President and CEO Matt Millen, success in the National Football League is simple: "The team that wins the Super Bowl is successful and the other 31 teams are not." (Well, isn't that convenient logic. So Millen is saying that the Lions' 7-9, nonplayoff 2007 season was the equivalent of the Patriots' 18-1 record -- all because neither team won the Super Bowl? Uh, Matt, Lions fans would eat artificial turf if you'd guarantee them a Super Bowl loss. These people haven't seen the Lions in the playoffs since 1999, and haven't seen them win a postseason game since 1991.) • Millen also believes that no team can achieve that success without the proper leadership from its head coach … (He should know; he hired three of them in his first six years.) • … and that is why the decision to hire Rod Marinelli in 2006 may prove to be the very best move Millen has made during his tenure as team president. (Or not. The author left some wiggle room there.) • During the Lions' head coaching search, Marinelli distinguished himself as the type of individual Millen believed was clearly needed to lead the Lions. (Millen to Marinelli during interview process: "What type of individual are you?" Marinelli to Millen: "The type who believes I'm clearly needed to lead the Lions." Millen to Marinelli: "You have distinguished yourself.") • Millen saw in Marinelli a head coach who would emphasize the game's vital elements, including what Marinelli refers to as the "non-talented characteristics" that players must possess in order to be successful in the NFL. Since then, Millen and Marinelli have worked in concert to formulate a roster of players who embody the "football character" qualities Marinelli adamantly deems are necessary for success in the NFL. (Seriously, $100 to anyone who can tell me what the hell they're talking about.)http://sports.espn.go.com/espn/columns/story?columnist=wojciechowski_gene&id=3565175&sportCat=nfl

DANVERS — The fate of the former site of an ink and paint plant that blew up in a fireball nearly seven years ago and devastated a Danversport neighborhood has been decided, as the Planning Board has granted permission for a boatyard there, Senior Planner Kate Day said.
"The town treated me very fairly and very well," said Jeffrey Bunk of Danvers, the owner of Bunky's Marina on Liberty Street, about his dealings with the Zoning Board of Appeals, Conservation Commission and Planning Board.
Tuesday night, the Planning Board unanimously granted special permit and site plan approval to Bunky Realty LLC for boat storage and brokerage at the 0.8-acre site at 128R Water St.
The parcel is bounded by homes on Bates Street to the north, a seafood restaurant to the west, and Liberty Marina to the south and east. The board also granted permission for Bunk to build a 4,500 square-foot office with bathrooms and a garage. The building will be in keeping with other wooden clapboard buildings in the area, Bunk said.
Bunk bought the property for $202,000 in January from the former owners of the destroyed CAI/Arnel plant, town records show.
He did so to provide himself with a second boatyard with the coming of the state reconstruction of culverts on Liberty Street. The work threatens to cut off his boat-storage business from the boat ramp access to Popes Landing just across Porter River.
Up until January, a rusting tank and burnt trees were constant reminders of the Nov. 22, 2006, early-morning chemical plant accident, which resulted in a blast that shook the region. The fiery explosion destroyed the plant, damaged or destroyed dozens of homes, and displaced residents. While there were some injuries, no one was killed.
"The residents really went through hell over there, and I don't think any residential neighbor opposed it," he said. In dealings with the EPA to buy the site, Bunk said he told officials the abandoned site was an "open wound," the sight of which was a constant reminder to residents of what they went through.

Being fluent in more than one language does not automatically make you a translator (written text) or interpreter (spoken word). However, if your education, life or work experience has led you to translate and/or interpret and you have found that you have exceptional skills in this area, you may be on your way to becoming a professional translator or interpreter. Many people in the United States enter into this profession through working in a bilingual environment, by translating or interpreting for their family or community, or through formal education. Most professional translators have at least a bachelorâs degree in language or a technical field that forms the basis of their specialization, excellent writing and editing skills, an eye for detail, and translate only into their native language. It is important to have an area of expertise that you specialize in. (Click here for an excellent article on this very subject in our quarterly journal Translorial.) Most professionals make their living translating business or scientific and technical documents rather than literary works. In addition to language skills, a translator/interpreter must be able to market him- or herself and form good relationships with reliable, paying clients. Joining the professional association NCTA and attending meetings, workshops and social events are good ways to learn about the profession, develop skills, network with others who work in this profession, and market your services through the NCTA Translator and Interpreter Referral Service.
Translators and interpreters must keep abreast of the fields in which they translate and have a thorough knowledge of their working languages and the respective cultures. Work on your language skills by reading regularly in your non-native language, and keep up with recent vocabulary and slang.
If you are new to the profession, start with a realistic assessment of your abilities. Never accept assignments that are too difficult for your current level of competence. If necessary, have your work edited, preferably by someone well versed in the subject of the translation. If you keep abreast of current developments in your field of specialization and have access to the right reference materials, then with continued practice and self-education, your work can reach a professional level.

What is the difference between a translator and an interpreter?
In the broader sense, a translator is anyone who conveys information from one language to another. In the more narrow sense, however, a translator is someone who works with the written word, while an interpreter works with the spoken word.
[Return to top]
How can I get training?
Practice translating and interpreting on a daily basis. Check with colleges and universities in your geographic area to see if they offer translation or interpretation courses. ATA offers the publications found at www.atanet.org/publications/index.php. Review NCTA's Listing of Translator and Interpreter Training and Credentialing Programs.
How do I get started and find work?
This is a process that takes time. First of all:
One consideration is whether you are interested in working for direct clients or through translation agencies. Marketing your services is an issue that is frequently discussed in NCTA meetings and workshops. Each translator or interpreter working as an independent contractor must determine the best way to market him- or herself and operate as a small business. Participating in the NCTAâs Translator and Interpreter Referral Service is a good way to begin marketing yourself.
How can I put together an effective résumé?
A résumé must be designed to fit its target audience and purpose. If a permanent position comes along, for example, you can still submit a résumé outlining your freelance experience. But if you send a résumé describing your desire for a full-time job to an agency that is seeking freelancers, they will think you don't know how they work and that perhaps you do not want freelance work.
If you do both interpreting and translating, you may need two résumés, or you may need a clear way of showing both types of experience on one résumé.
If you are just starting out, it will be easy to write your résumé. However, if you are making a career change, you will have to reprogram your mind to write a good résumé. The most difficult thing for someone changing careers to grasp is that a conventional résumé will not be effective. People are naturally proud of all their experience and want to write it all down, but only the parts related to translation and interpreting are relevant to your intended audience, so you should exclude most everything else.
A translation agency will not be impressed by a general experience résumé that doesn't address what the agency is seeking. It forces the agency to wade through all your experience looking for the tidbits that relate to translating, and they won't believe that you are really committed to your new career if you haven't written a custom résumé.
And remember: a résumé should have a concise, one-page format and be in a neutral, cross-platform format such as PDF.
How do I know what to charge for my services?
Do the research, and adjust your fees over time in response to your work load and the level of your expertise: as the amount of work increases, you are more in demand and can charge more.
Some ways to research your fee range:
How can I obtain certification?
Translators and interpreters must present their unique skills and credentials to potential clients, and only accept work for which they are fully qualified through experience and/or training. These credentials will vary from one person to the next, and include educational background, work experience in translation and interpretation as well as areas of specialization. The most important credentials are usually subject area expertise and experience translating or interpreting in that subject.
A Certification Exam is offered by the ATA. See www.atanet.org/certification for details. NCTA generally offers a preparation workshop for the ATA Certification Exam once per year. The Certification Exam has a low pass rate overall and is not intended as an entry-level exam. There are several specialized state certifications for interpreters, such as for court interpreters. More information is found in the NCTA publication "A Practical Guide for Translators.â
Who is qualified to provide "official translations"?
Certain governmental or educational entities may require "official translations" of birth certificates, marriage certificates, school transcripts, diplomas, etc., without explaining what exactly "official" means. Translation is not a regulated profession in the United States, and there is therefore no such thing as an "official translator" or a universal requirement for "official translations." Each institution will have its own requirements, which are usually posted on its website.
Generally, what is needed is proof that the applicant did not translate his/her own document(s). In other words, to ensure accuracy and impartiality, it must be clear that a professional translator actually translated the document(s). Ideally, the translator's attestation of accuracy, often with a notarized signature, is attached to the translation.
Alternatively, a translation company or agency can be engaged to take the responsibility of hiring the translator and affixing its own seals or certifying statements to the translation.
A translator's credentials may include ATA Certification or other certification, university degrees, membership in professional associations (such as the NCTA), and years of experience.

I have lived here since Spetember 08. The amout of bedbugs here are extremely high. At one point it became impossible to sleep.
The landlord has had 3 bed bug treatments since. Yet, things are not in control. Unfortunately, the old carpets have a lot in them. And the Land lord does not want to replace it.
No nearby bug reports

Top 10 Spot On Summer Nail Polish Shades
by Anna Yu
Among many of my best girlfriends (including my Stylehive partners in crime), there's been a definite increase in nail polish purchases. With nail polishes becoming just as coveted as it-bags, it's easy to buy whatever color strikes your fancy without breaking the bank. But with all the colors out there from the palest pink to the darkest blue, it's hard to choose! I've got you covered with some of the top trends this summer for nails. The looks you want to go for when shopping are: bright neons, pretty pastels, and everyday neutrals. For a neon color, check out Radioactive Nail Polish from Pop Beauty for a crazy bright green that will definitely capture attention. For an everyday nail color, I like a basic taupe like the butter LONDON Nail Lacquer in Yummy Mummy which you can probably wear to even the strictest of work places. For more nail polish colors fit for summer, take a look at my slideshow!

A strongly-worded statement from Education Secretary Arne Duncan last week revealed his distaste for federalism, since it undermines his goal of having all states agree to one set of education standards.
South Carolina legislators are considering a bill to block the state from implementing the Common Core, a list of what children in each grade should know in math and language arts. This sounds simple and blasé enough, but it is not. More on that in a bit.
Gov. Nikki Haley sent the bill's sponsor a letter declaring her support for the repeal.
"Just as we should not relinquish control of education to the Federal government, neither should we cede it to the consensus of other states," Haley wrote. "Our children deserve swift action and the passage of a clean resolution that will allow our state to reclaim control of and responsibility for educating South Carolinians."
Duncan has said little to defend the Common Core to this point. South Carolina's initiative, however, seems to have threatened the administration's plans enough to have generated a striking response.
"The idea that the Common Core standards are nationally-imposed is a conspiracy theory in search of a conspiracy," Duncan said in a statement last Thursday. He also implied that states differing from the administration's party line would be subject to discrimination in federal education grants and waivers.
At the center of this controversy lies the administration's preference for having the executive branch control national policy. Every Obama administration initiative in education has required that states adopt the Core, such as for Race to the Top grants, reauthorizing No Child Left Behind (the largest federal education law), and NCLB waivers. Forty-five states, including South Carolina, adopted the standards under Race to the Top pressure in 2010.
And there are obvious-sounding benefits to such a policy. When there is one system for learning in the country, you can compare every fourth grader with every other fourth grader along the same scale. No more mucking around with different curriculums and tests. When there is one system, a family can move classrooms mid-year and not have their children enter a classroom that may be a full year ahead or behind the school they left.
But these are small benefits compared to the dangers. Here's why.
First, having the U.S. Education Department fund or monitor curriculum is flat-out illegal. That's what the Core has so far entailed, despite Duncan's self-deception about that fact. Given the Obama administration's disregard for law, this should not be surprising, but it's still abhorrent and destructive to liberty.
Second, the Brookings Institution has studied the Core and concluded it will do nothing to improve American education. At the same time, estimates suggest merely switching over to the Core will cost states $16 billion. Hm—spending $16 billion to waste time and energy? That's the story of the Obama administration (just keep increasing the amount).
Third, centralization often sounds neat and tidy, but ignores the minor fact that people themselves are not neat and tidy. Humans are diverse. One set of education standards does not fit every state, school, or child. It can't possibly. Forced sameness reduces creativity and freedom, which are essential to intelligence and a thriving economy.

The Newark Star-Ledger recently published a lengthy article portraying the state's "unregulated" homeschoolers as wide-eyed fringers, not on the opinions page but as straight-facts reporting. When I emailed the editor to protest, he replied (and later courteously gave me permission to quote): "We made quite clear that this was not an overall evaluation of home schooling, but a piece looking at [Andrew] Schlafly's operation, in the context of an entirely unregulated field."
Let's look at how clear and fair the reporting is.
A coalition of right-leaning education reformers have recently and sharply broken with the growing federal influence Republicans and Democrats have broadly supported in recent decades. This edusphere tussle connects education to the wider debate Americans (evinced most loudly by Tea Party supporters) have rejoined on the scope and centralization of government power and how it shapes American identity.

They needed a little lovin, and I know an easy project when I see one, so I snatched up that table and chairs, and loaded them tetris-style into the ol' WRX to it's new and beautiful life.
I forgot to take a picture of the supplies, but here is a list:
-2 cans of springy yellowy green spray paint with primer in it. (MJ
told me that if I followed through with my original color choice, coral, he changed his mind about them giving me the table)
-a dropcloth
Nikki would be proud.
Oh, and the other chair? I ran out of paint. Maybe I'll do that one coral! hahahaha

Here's a much better look at Condola Rashad in what will be her first TV series regular role, in Fox's upcoming Hieroglyph, which is expected to debut on the network's lineup next TV season. We also now have a full synopsis.
Here's a much better look at Condola Rashad in what will be her first TV series regular role, in Fox's upcoming Hieroglyph, which is expected to debut on the network's lineup next TV season. We also now have a full synopsis.
Here's what we've known about Hieroglyph: Set in ancient Egypt, Hieroglyph is said to be combo fantasy and reality, an ambitious action-adventure series from Pacific Rim and Clash of the Titans writer Travis Beacham, which will follow a notorious thief who leaves prison to serve the Pharaoh - a move that places him amid lots intrigue within palace walls; sex, crime, the usual.
Condola will play Nefertari Kanahkt - "a rare beauty who intimidates even the strongest of suitors… and she knows it," as Fox describes how the character will be portrayed in the series.
Here's the much longer, official synopsis:
The world of ancient Egypt – a time of magic, Pharaohs, gods and thieves – lives again in HIEROGLYPH, an exciting action adventure series from the mind of creator/executive producer Travis Beacham ("Pacific Rim," "Clash of the Titans"). When a dangerous scroll, The Book of Thresholds, is stolen from Egypt's most secure vault, master thief AMBROSE (Max Brown, "Beauty and the Beast," "MI-5") is plucked from prison to track down the perpetrator. Having spent the past five years in the darkest of pits, Ambrose quickly learns that his prison cell might be safer than the dangerous new world in which he finds himself: Atum, the empire's capital. Ambrose must answer to Pharaoh SHAI KANAKHT (Reece Ritchie, "Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time"), a god in the flesh, a young ruler with a cool charm and a violent, frightening temper. The question for Ambrose is not whether he can trust his new boss, but whether he can trust anyone. Also stalking the halls of the palace is NEFERTARI KANAKHT (Condola Rashad, "Smash," "Steel Magnolias"), half-sister to the Pharaoh, whose relationship with Shai's closest advisor, MAGISTER BEK, masks her own designs for power. Finding few leads in the palace, Ambrose's investigation takes him to the doorstep of his long lost love, PESHET (Caroline Ford, "Lake Placid: The Final Chapter"), a magic-wielding adoratrice, a type of homespun priestess who uses her femininity as a portal to the gods…for the right price. Peshet was the keystone in his merry band of thieves, an impressionable youth with great knowledge of magic, a woman who never saw a lock for which she didn't have an unlocking charm. Five years later, Peshet has left her old life behind in a pious pursuit of divine contact. Ambrose's journey leads him to old friends, such as VOCIFER (John Rhys-Davies, "The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Rings," "Raiders of the Lost Ark"), a peddler of mystical wares and Ambrose's mentor. But he also comes face-to-face with foes both old and new, from DJET, a brutish thug-turned-crime boss of the city; to RAWSER (Antony Bunsee, "EastEnders," "Sex and the City 2"), the Pharoah's captain of the guard, who imprisoned him five years ago; to LOTUS TENRY (Kelsey Chow, "One Tree Hill"), a palace concubine and spy for a rival kingdom. As Ambrose unravels the mystery of the Book of Thresholds, he begins to see the extent to which sorcery has seeped into the halls of power in ancient Egypt, and how close it is to causing this great civilization's downfall.
Expect a 13-episode series from 20th TV and Chernin Entertainment.

Nope. Nope. Nope. 1. I don't trust someone who is not Egyptian to accurately represent ancient Egypt. 2. Judging by Travis Beacham's ridiculous historical misrepresentations (even in the name of entertainment) this is going to be racist and white-centric as hell. 3. How are you representing Egypt with a bunch of white people.?
I already know the role Condola is going to play: the seductress that satisfies the whimsy of these whitewashed "Egyptians", their exploration in "jungle fever". She will lack "moral fiber," delicacy, humanity, sexual autonomy, be touted as too skkkkrrrrroooong to need a man, typical racist stereotypes of black women. She's got to be the half sister because god forbid ancient Egyptians actually looked like her.
I only needed to see the poster to draw this conclusion, because talentless racist stereotyping is as talentless racist stereotyping does and you all have been doing the same nonsense for hundreds of years. Not fooling anyone.

Looks great. Will you have a similar profile on Reece Ritchie?
