He was an aged veteran; a catcher by trade. He was bookended in history by Yogi Berra and Johnny Bench. He had his ring and two pennants. An all star at times. He was a respected game caller. When young he was better than most at keeping the runners in check. He was good at mentoring rookies and working with what he had. He was never going to be the dream athlete; the big star. So he never hit that memorable home run. He had plenty of clutch hits that at least he remembered.
Time had been a cruel mistress. He'd broken his hands so many times from foul tips that there were days when holding the bat hurt; let alone gripping the ball. He still loved the game that no longer loved him. It was time to go. The hard scrabble farm in Connecticut was calling him. His other way back to the dirt. The hands are truly gnarled; the knees no longer willing to take the season's long grind. It's time to put in the crop and retire. And so he did.
The summer came and the old fires still smoldered. Throwing things at the TV did no good. Pay attention to the crops! This Farm is now your living old man. And then the phone rang one day. A respected baseball man called. "I don't want to coach" He thought. No a respected competitor was hurt and his team is in contention. "I'm not up to playing everday anymore" He thought. No the backup is past ready to make the everyday leap. We need some one to back him up. He's well rested. we won't use you unless we have to. Could you put on the gear for a last time? You'd be in the pennant race one more time! You might even get to the series again. Well the crops won't be ready to take in for weeks. I can still get the guys from last year to take them in when the time comes. Why not?
So he finished up the season. he played now and again. The Pain! "When the season's done; so am I". But the season didn't end just yet. In the playoffs his team eclipsed the team of the player who had always overshadowed him. The man he replaced was in the dugout wondering if he was watching the end of his own storied career. The Youngster was playing well. Now for the world series.
He never thought he'd get to play here at this place in a game that mattered. Now he was a spectator on the bench. The series went home and came back. Now the youngster is hurt. You have to play the last games. The opposing manager is famous for his small ball. Be on your guard. If he can find a way to make you look bad old man; he sure enough will. It's the middle of the game with two on in scoring position and no outs. Call the breaking pitch. The "Squeeze" is on! Tag the runner and and throw to first. Good double up old man! Runner at third two away. That's a good way to be remembered. Get that out and get out of the inning. Call the fast ball low and in. What? The suicide? Grab the ball and take the hit. OoooF! "Yes, I held on to the Damn ball Billy!"
The Heroics of Reggie Jackson decided the series against him. My memory fades and i might not have all the details right. That is how I'll Always remember Jerry Grote.

Dietitian's tip: These pancakes are packed with healthy whole grains that help keep your appetite in control.
In a large bowl, mix dry ingredients together.
In a separate bowl, mix wet ingredients — honey, oil, soy milk and egg whites. Add egg mixture to dry ingredients. Stir until just combined. Let batter rest for 30 minutes in refrigerator.
Preheat pan on medium heat. Ladle out about 1/4 cup of batter to make 1 pancake. Cook until small bubbles start to form and the edges begin to look dry. Flip and cook until brown on the second side. Remove to warmed plates and serve topped with fresh fruit or a sprinkle of cinnamon sugar or powdered sugar.

Among the works Christine Berry chose to include in our recent works on paper show is an ink wash drawing by Thomas Hart Benton that came to us with the title of Abe nosed the flatboat toward the shore. Our hunch that "Abe" might be Abraham Lincoln turned out to be correct, when we discovered that Benton had created this work for an illustration in a book by Virginia S. Eifert (1811-1966), a prolific author born in Springfield, Illinois, who wrote biographies and books on nature, natural history, and cultural history.
The book, entitled Three Rivers South: The Story of Young Abe Lincoln (Dodd, Mead & Company, 1953), is a fictionalized biographical account written for teenagers of a trip Lincoln (age twenty-two) took with his stepbrother Jack Johnson and cousin John Hanks. The three were contracted to pilot a flatboat loaded with a cargo of hogs down the Sangamon, Illinois, and Mississippi rivers.
Eifert fills in the adventures that take place along the way with details, dialogue, and anecdotes, such as telling how Lincoln befriended runaway slaves. Throughout, the young Lincoln comes across as indomitable. Eifert describes how when Abe came to collect the boat for the journey, the man who had hired him, Denton Offutt, "set down his glass with a thump and peered blearily in the direction of the voice." When Abe announced he was ready to take possession of the boat, he was told, "There ain't no boat! I plumb forgot to get me one!" Abe, both "sick" and "boiling mad" answered, "Stop that infernal giggling and listen or I'll shake it out of you. We'll build you a boat," which of course Lincoln proceeded to do. (5-6)
Eifert's colorful descriptions of life on the river must have appealed to Benton, who had already illustrated a number of other books featuring Midwest rivers, including three by Mark Twain– Adventures of Tom Sawyer (1939), The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn (1942), Life on the Mississippi (1944)—and Ward Allison Dorrance's We're from Missouri (1938). (He also devoted a chapter of his 1937 autobiographical An Artist in America to "The Rivers.")
The thirteen ink wash drawings Benton created for Eifert's book are all in his inimitable style in which line and form are imbued with a baroque energy. However, Benton steered away from literal representations. He explained that too many illustrators "tend to overwhelm the reader's own imagination and to take away from the suggestiveness of words with a too-bald literalness of representation." He felt that instead, illustrators should know "the value of lightness, of the suggestive rather than the downright statement," never being so "insistent as to check the play of the reader's own visual imagination" (quoted in Henry Adams, Thomas Hart Benton: Drawing from Life, 1990, 154). Benton's attitude is apparent in our drawing. Whereas the caption for the illustration (taken from text on page 84) states, "Abe nosed the flatboat toward the shore and she settled into a berth in the crowded, bustling St. Louis water front," our perspective is from the opposing angle, that of a spectator on the shore. Our view, from a high building partially blocked by a neighboring building, encompasses the varied activities along the shore and a steamboat flanking Abe's flatboat–Eifert observes Abe's admiration for such steamboats on arrival in St. Louis.
See also the fascinating drawings created by Benton for his Social History of Indiana Murals, one for the Industrial Panels, 2 through 9, and the other for the Cultural Panels, 9 through 2, which includes the lanky figure of Lincoln as a railsplitter.
A second post on some new Benton arrivals at the gallery is to follow . . .

Armless, one-legged driver leads chase
NEW PORT RICHEY, Fla. - Authorities were led on a high speed vehicle chase by an armless, one-legged man, and they said this wasn't the first time the 40-year-old eluded police.
Michael Francis Wiley taught himself to drive after losing both arms and a leg in an electrical accident when he was 13. He spent time in prison for kicking a Florida Highway Patrol trooper after an accident in 1996. He led police on a 120 mph chase in 1998.
On Tuesday, Wiley sped off in a Ford Explorer when police approached him at a convenience store, New Port Richey police Capt. Darryl Garman said. Officers pursued, but called off the chase after eight minutes because they did not want to put others in danger, Garman said.
Wiley was arrested the next day on charges of fleeing from police and habitually driving without a license. He also is awaiting trial on separate drug charges and traffic violations. He faces up to five years in prison if convicted.
Defense attorney John Hooker said his client has paid off previous traffic fines that got his license suspended and tried to get a new driver's license, but he was rebuffed by state officials. Wiley's license has been revoked so many times it is now a felony to drive.
"What makes him do it?" Hooker said when asked why Wiley keeps getting behind the wheel. "I think it's an urge he has that makes him feel as important and as good as anyone. It gives him a sense of self-esteem."
Hooker said he had not had a chance to talk to Wiley about the most recent charges.
Even before Wednesday's arrest, prosecutors were seeking to send Wiley to prison for at least five years for felony drug and traffic charges.
"He has a hideous record," Assistant State Attorney Mike Halkitis said after an August 2006 arrest. "It's just got to end."
Wiley was being held in the Pasco County jail on $500,000 bond.

He keeps this up and he won't have a leg to stand on...

Albany -- Albany police say home burglaries are a continuing problem. But there are ways to protect your home, and to make it unattractive to burglars.
Burglars and thieves are looking for easy targets to rob, so the best way to protect your home is to make it tough to break into.
That starts outside your home, keeping your bushes short and away from windows. Lt Kenn Singleton of the Albany Police said "You want to make your shrubbery is cut low. Stops persons from behind able to hide in between here. Also you notice this house has screens. They need to be locked down. In the event someone is riding by, and a person trying to get in the windows. But if they see them taking the screens off, they might react to that a little bit more."
Motion detectors, lights, and good locks on the doors also dissuade burglars. Lt. Singleton said "It is a solid door here. They have a dead bolt lock. A double cylinder dead bolt lock. We recommend anytime there is glass within 40 inches of your lock, you utilize a double cylinder dead bolt lock. That means it takes a key from the inside and outside."
A barking dog is always good to make thieves go elsewhere. You can also use timers to turn on appliances, and make it appear someone is home. Lt. Singleton said "Maybe by 9 O-clock a television set may come on and stay on for a couple of hours and then turn off. Then you may have something else hooked up. A radio which will come on a little bit later on."
Police say a good neighborhood watch program is another good way to safeguard your home. Lt. Singleton said "Neighbors are watching each others homes when they are not there. That cuts down on the opportunity for people just being in the neighborhood, being able to case areas out."
Most home burglaries happen during the day when people are at work or at school. But making it look like someone is home is the best way to keep thieves away.
Albany police also have Operation Identification, to mark your name on valuable items in your home. Call their community relations officers, and they will come to your home and suggest ways to safeguard it.

Huta Stalowa Wola (HSW) has unveiled at MSPO 2013 its Rak 120 mm mortar system mounted on a Rheinmetall Defence Marder 1A3 infantry fighting vehicle (IFV) hull.
The Polish Land Forces are planning to purchase 75 Rak mortars - 72 across 9 company fire modules and 3 for training purposes, although it is possible this number may increase to around 180. The first eight serial production Rak mortars, installed on the wheeled Rosomak (Patria AMV) 8x8 hull, will be delivered in 2014.
The HSW-developed Rak mortar system consists of an auto-loading 120/25-calibre mortar with 20 a round magazine installed in an unmanned turret. The turret can be integrated with tracked or wheeled chassis, while an additional 40 rounds can be stored in the vehicle's hull.
Rheinmetall Defence has a long history of co-operation HSW, with Rheinmetall having supplied many parts or components to HSW; most recently 155 mm barrels for the Krab self-propelled howitzer.
The Bundeswehr is starting to withdraw the Marder from service, replacing it with the Puma IFV. Some of these Marder vehicles may be refurbished, modernised, and sold by Rheinmetall to international customers. Recently Chile bought 280 vehicles and 50 were purchased by Indonesia.
Rheinmetall lacks an auto-loading turret mortar system, and so has signed an agreement with HSW to integrate Marder hulls with the Rak mortar. The future self-propelled mortar is understood to be being offered to a current foreign user of the Marder.
Rheinmetall provided the Marder 1A3 hull to HSW just a few of weeks before the MSPO show, with this short time proving enough to integrate the turret with the chassis. The vehicle required slight alteration to install the Rak mortar, with the Polish turret requiring a larger turret ring as well as some reinforcement of the upper hull structure.
The Marder-based system has not been test fired yet, but integration is considered fully successful and stress simulations indicate it should be capable of type of fire mode without issue, IHS Jane's was told. The first test firings of the Rak system on the Marder hull are planned for November at the Polish army testing ground in Stalowa Wola.

Originally published 02/21/2013.
After two weeks of frantic searching and fruitless tips, 21-year-old Canadian tourist Elisa Lam had seemed to disappear without a trace. She had arrived in Los Angeles on January 26 and checked into the Cecil Hotel downtown with plans to head north to Santa Cruz. Her parents spoke with her everyday when she suddenly stopped calling. When she was found, the shocking circumstances seemed ripped from an episode of Law & Order. Only this time, the death was real.
A week after Lam's disappearance, the LAPD turned to the public for clues. The tips came in hard and fast, but none of them checked out. Hotel workers said they hadn't seen her since January 31, and a police canine search of the hotel turned up nothing. The last evidence of Lam alive was in January 31 footage from an elevator surveillance camera. On tape, Lam appears to be acting strangely: pressing buttons, peeking her head out at different floors, seemingly hiding from someone.
Yet it wasn't until Tuesday, February 19, when hotel residents complained of low water pressure that Lam was found. When a hotel worker went to the roof to check on it, he found a female corpse inside one of the water tanks. Firemen and police rushed to the scene. The tank opening was too small for a firefighter to fit through so the tank had to be sawed open to remove the body. Police had soon identified the body as Lam's.
The police investigation is in its initial stages–the county coroner has yet to issue a cause of death–so there are many questions yet to be answered. The water tanks themselves were unlocked, but hotel guests do not have roof access privileges. How Lam made her way into the tank remains a mystery. "We're not ruling out foul play," LAPD spokesman Rudy Lopez told the Los Angeles Times, conceding that the corpse in the water tank "makes it suspicious."
What Lam probably didn't know is that the Cecil Hotel has a long history of housing criminals. The Night Stalker Richard Ramirez stayed there. So did Austrian serial killer Jack Unterweger. As recently as 2010, a paramedic was stabbed while answering a distress call; that case remains unsolved.
Hotel guests were less concerned with the Cecil's history than its current situation. "I'm really disgusted," said Annette Suzuki a visitor from San Francisco, "Wouldn't you be if there was a dead body in the water tank you're drinking from." Luckily, a Fire Department official said a water sample from the hotel was tested and deemed safe for consumption.
Now it's up to investigators to determine whether Elisa Lam's bizarre demise was a strange accident or murder.

With the sectional in less than two weeks, Lebanon head coach Beth DeVinney looks for her team to get better every game and she saw that in a 59-37 victory over North Montgomery on Friday night.
"There was definitely improvement in our effort overall," said Beth DeVinney. "Our kids had some energy and legs tonight. We've been approving on our endurance. I think our conditioning level is almost where it needs to be. We're not quite there yet, but I feel like we are definitely headed in the right direction."
Lebanon (12-4, 5-1 SAC) scored the first seven points of the game but North Montgomery (1-15, 0-6 SAC) didn't let the Lady Tigers run away with it as the Lady Chargers trailed by four points, 15-11, after the first quarter.
Lebanon continued to add to the lead, extending it after each quarter.

10 Healthy Reasons to Take up Yoga
There are more benefits to practicing yoga than toned abs -- those are just a bonus! Here are 10 reasons to say "om."
There's no question that all things yoga are a huge trend (if you can call a practice that's 5,000 years old a trend). But yoga is more than just fancy workout wear -- more, even, than just a workout. It's a great way to boost your mental and physical health along many fronts. Here are 10 reasons to go to the (yoga) mat.
8. Happier mood, less anxiety
The ability of exercise to relieve depression and boost happiness has been well documented. But recent research suggests that yoga is even better able to improve mood than walking or other types of exercise. Researchers believe this effect might be due to yoga's stimulation of specific areas and chemicals in the brain.

CHATTANOOGA, TN. (WRCB) -- This week, Crime Stoppers features a guy who pulled a revolver in the commission of a robbery. We need your help getting him off the street, because the next time he strikes, he may use that gun and someone could get hurt.
"Anyone that's not afraid to carry a gun and actually go and threaten someone's life," said Chattanooga Police Officer Daniel Jones, "there's always that potential there."
Cut to just before 7:00 on Thursday evening, October 25th. The dinner rush at the 23rd street Hardee's restaurant has come and gone. Enter: our villain.
"You can see him case the parking lot a couple of times with his vehicle," explained Off. Jones. "It looks like he's driving a dark SUV with, it looks like, a silver 2-tone down at the bottom of the vehicle."
He eventually parked at the back. A surveillance camera gives us a good look at him as he enters, adjusting a bandana he has pulled over his face. Another shows the terrifying moments as he storms the clerk, pulls the revolver, and points it at her face.
This is where we can get a full description. He is a black male with shoulder length braids, he is wearing a red hoodie and looks to be about 6-feet tall with a medium build. "There's something that someone will notice about him, Jones said. "Either by the way he walks, the way he jogs in, or the way he jogs out and runs out of the business."
He ran back out, back to that same 2-tone SUV and away from the scene. "Hopefully, someone will notice about the vehicle that he's in," said Jones. "That's what we're looking for."
Help us round him up before someone gets hurt, or worse. No one will ever know it was you who provided the tip and up to a thousand dollars is waiting, no questions asked. Call Crime Stoppers at: (423) 698-3333

ORLANDO, Fla. – (Jan. 31, 2014) – Bree Luckie of the University Area Community Development Corporation's (UACDC) Prodigy cultural arts program addressed Florida State Legislators during the Orange County Legislative Delegation Meeting Jan. 30. The meeting was held at the Orange County Administration Center Commission Chambers.
Luckie explained to the delegation how Prodigy, funded by the Department of Juvenile Justice, delivers life skills such as communication, problem-solving and conflict resolution through performing and visual arts curriculum for at-risk youth ages 7-17. The program prevents youth from going deeper into the juvenile justice system, which in turn saves the state money, improves communities and truly transforms young lives.
Prodigy served 575 Orange County, FL youth in the 2012-2013 grant year. The four

John Kasich on Families & Children
Republican Governor; previously Representative (OH-12); 2000 candidate for President
We should live like we're being monitored, because we are. We ARE being watched. We ARE setting an example. We ARE being judged.
And so I cringe instead, at the general coarsening of America's ethical standards, and when I'm done cringing I get to wondering if I've become so out of touch with the mores and manners of our popular culture that my own standards come across as old-fashioned.
I bought a new hip-hop CD, "Roots". I'm not a moralizer, and I like to think I have an open mind, but I've got to tell you I couldn't open it wide enough to accept such as this, and as I listened to the CD I kept coming back to the language. I won't repeat any of it here. There was no justifying it, really. I threw the CD in the trash.
[As part of the Contract with America, within 100 days we pledge to bring to the House Floor the following bill]:
The Families Reinforcement Act:
Child support enforcement, tax incentives for adoption, strengthening rights of parents in their children's education, stronger child pornography laws, and an elderly dependent care tax credit to reinforce the central role of families in American society.

text: Just to let you know, we have spent way more than $600.00 at this shop for a whole list of things that needed to be done. I really don't remember their labor rate so please call for that information. My wife and I spent a lot of money throughout the Charlotte area trying to find a Mechanic that was honest, reliable and knowledgeable. we spent in excesses of Six Thousand Dollars on one car alone in 2009. The only thing we got from the so called reputable auto repair shops to the word of mouth backyard knuckle-busters was lip service and the run around ... in the end more problems than we started with. While I was commuting to Cherryville NC I came upon Virginia Avenue Auto and decided to give them a shot. The building is old and run down and I would not suggest going their dressed in your Sunday best as the place is a true blue auto repair shop complete with grease stained counters, walls and floors. This place is far removed from the squeaky clean corporate auto shops lining the streets today. However, what you ARE going to get when you go there is a bunch of good ol' boys that really know how to fix your car. Since we started using them as our Mechanic we started getting actual repairs done correctly. They have been honest, professional and every-time they quote me a price for labor and parts it's pretty much on the money accurate. I have some understanding of how engines work and was expecting to catch them exaggerating the scope of the repair as everyone else has done. Well, I recommended a former co-worker to them when his transmission failed to engage. Being that the "slave cylinder" was in the bell housing it was impossible for me to know if my suspicion were correct. These guys came back and told him it was in fact the "slave cylinder" and the clutch was fine. I am certain most other shops would have tried to sell him a new clutch. Even with the 45 minute drive from Charlotte to their shop, I will not go anywhere else. I feel kind of bad for these guys though ... since they do such a great job they are not getting as much business from me anymore as the repairs were done right. By the way, if you do use these guys (and you should) stop in at the Pharmacy down the street and check out their freshly squeezed Orange Drink ... it couldn't be any tastier.

Escaped New Addington teen's killer Lerone Boye arrested in Chigwell after three months on the run
Updated 8:13am Wednesday 22nd January 2014 in News By Omar Oakes
A murderer who sparked a manhunt after escaping from a mental health unit has been arrested.
Lerone Boye was held in a planned operation at just before 4pm yesterday at a house in Elderberry Close, Chigwell.
He remains in custody at a north London police station.
The 27-year-old had been on the run since absconding from a mental health unit in east London on October 16.
He was jailed for life with minimum 28 years in December 2012 for stabbing New Addington 17-year-old Kelvin Chibueze to death outside a club in Ilford in August 2011.
Boye was one of four men jailed for knifing to death Mr Chibueze who lived in New Addington, as two rival groups of friends faced off outside Arteflex Club.
After stabbing him through the heart, Mr Chibueze's killers then chased him down as he tried to flee, beating him and knifing him again before leaving him to die in a nearby car park.
Police had offered £15,000 for information leading to his capture after he escaped from the John Howard Centre in Kenworthy Road, Homerton.

Once again we see that these "secure" mental health units are anything but secure. This is not the only unit to have failed over recent years. I note that some prisons have been closed in recent months. Could not these mental health units be moved there, or relocated to within ordinary secure prisons.
Or do we have to wait for some innocent person to be attacked first?
Stuff the victims eh! - it's the killers our authorities care about, the charities care about, and the liberals care about!

The patrons of the school district have provided the district with facilities for the education of their
youth through the support of their tax dollars. It is the responsibility of the Board of Education,
administration, professional and support staff members, and students to see that these facilities are
cared for, used properly and treated with respect. The superintendent, with the counsel of the
administrative staff, will establish procedures for the proper use of school facilities to guard
against damage or loss of school property by theft, vandalism or misuse. These procedures will
include preventive measures as well as clear steps to follow when school property has been taken
or damaged.
The superintendent and the administrative staff will see that all professional and support staff know
and respond to the proper procedures for the use and care of school property and report correctly
when property has been taken or damaged.
Access to school buildings and grounds outside regular school hours will be granted only to
authorized personnel. An adequate key control system shall be established that will prevent the
potential entrance of unauthorized persons.
All records of existing or proposed security systems and structural plans for property owned or
leased by the district will be considered closed to the extent that disclosure would threaten public
safety, as allowed by law. The public interest in nondisclosure outweighs the public interest in
disclosure because the disclosure of these records would impair the district's ability to protect the
security or safety of persons or real property.
When special events or activities are scheduled, the principal may request permission from the
superintendent to employ special law enforcement services to give extra help in protecting school
Firearms and Other Weapons
No person shall carry a firearm, a concealed weapon or any other weapon readily capable of lethal
use into any school, onto any school transportation or onto the premises of any function or activity
sponsored or sanctioned by the district, except for authorized law enforcement officials. Adults
and students may possess weapons on school property for the limited purpose of facilitating or
participating in a school-sanctioned firearm-related event, as long as the weapons are not concealed
and the weapons are not carried onto school transportation or onto the premises of any other
school or school-sponsored activity. School officials are prohibited from authorizing any person
to bring weapons on school property or to school activities, including concealed weapons, beyond
the exceptions stated in this policy.
Any person who possesses a weapon in violation of this policy will be asked to leave. In addition,
district administrators may report the incident to law enforcement officials, ban the person from
school property or school events in accordance with policy KK or seek other legal remedies.
Possession of weapons by students is governed by policy JFCJ and regulation JG-R.
The Board shall seek all legal redress against persons found to have committed incidents of willful
or malicious abuse, destruction, defacing and/or theft of the property of the Steelville R-III School
District patrons, students and members of the staff are urged by the Board to cooperate in
reporting incidents of vandalism to property belonging to the district, as well as the name(s) of the
person or persons believed to be responsible.
The superintendent and/or principal shall be authorized to sign a complaint, press charges and
pursue civil action against perpetrators of vandalism to school property. Restitution for the
damages caused will be sought from such persons -- and, in the case of minors, from their
parents/guardians -- under the laws of this state. Students found guilty of willfully defacing or
injuring any school property shall pay for the damages caused thereby and may be suspended or
expelled as provided by law.

Utah Head Coach Larry Krystkowiak
"I thought their defense was really good and I thought we tried to beat them with 1-on-1 moves we don't possess. We had a lot of guys whose answer to pressure and having to work to get into our offense was to dribble the ball, turn it over and take bad shots. This was one of the first times we didn't play hard and we didn't play together. I know we have our deficiencies offensively but at least we have tried to do it collectively. Today it was just...from the point guard through our center...guys were catching the ball and doing things that weren't characteristic, and trying to make 1-on-1 moves against a pretty athletic team. There is no way we can be successful doing that."
On this game following the Arizona State win
"It's disappointing but it was two different mindsets. It's a man-to-man very physical team [UCLA] that tries to take you out of it and it was a 2-3 matchup zone [ASU]. So it was two different teams. I told our guys, we're pretty good when there is no pressure on us but when we get sped up we get out of sorts. We talked about it all week, we knew what we were going to face but we can't simulate it. That's our issue. You talk about it, you try to prepare for it, but you don't know what it's going to be like when you have a 6-5 guy guarding you when you're 5-10, and he's bumping you and taking you out of what you're trying to do. It was a little bit of shock to us."

OTW - It's time to cough up the $$$ again!
It hasn't been that long, but I can already barely remember a day before AO3. Archives are my great love in fandom, and it was a dark, dark period for me when everything was on LJ. I love wikis, and I think our legal activism is some of the most important work we do, but as a user, it's all about AO3 for me. I coveted Yuletide's matching system for years, and now it can be mine! No less exciting is the realization that AO3 is awesome for vids. It's easy to aggregate multiple types of hosting with search functions that favor fandom. As a mod, as a vidder, as a lazy person looking for something quick to read before bed, AO3 deserves my money, this year and every year.
Also, I want another one of those totes. They're totes awesome.

TAMPA (FBC)—Block parties, a basketball clinic and tournament, a youth event featuring a former Harlem Globetrotter and senior adult event featuring the music of "Dixie Echoes" are among activities Orlando area-churches plan to use to engage their communities with the Gospel during Crossover Orlando.
Other activities include a youth rally and an outreach event with illusionist Drew Worsham, mobile dental unit, a block party with the Strength team and a bi-lingual community festival.
The activities are slated primarily for the weekend Nov. 10-11, in conjunction with the Florida Baptist State Convention, which is set for Nov. 12-13 at First Baptist Church in Orlando, but some events will span the week.
Volunteers from Florida Baptist congregations across the state are encouraged to participate in Crossover for mission involvement and hands-on training experience as many of the events can be reproduced to reach people in their communities.
Crossover Orlando is a "dynamic partnership" between area churches, the Greater Orlando Baptist Association and the Florida Baptist Convention, according to Jeff Hessinger, strategist of the Convention's Personal Evangelism Team.
"We are preparing for an incredible week of evangelistic outreach throughout our communities," said Hessinger. "Crossover will provide various styles of outreach events throughout the region to connect local churches to unchurched people in their immediate communities."
Hessinger commended the Orlando pastors and ministry leaders "who are passionate about sharing the Gospel with the area."
"We will touch thousands of people and see hundreds come to faith in Christ," Hessinger said.
The FBSC host church, First Baptist Church of Orlando, will sponsor a basketball clinic on Saturday of Crossover. Students from 10 elementary and middle schools have been invited to attend the clinic at the church from 9 a.m.-12:30 p.m. Guest speaker is Nick Anderson, first-ever draft choice and all-time leading scorer with the Orlando Magic basketball team. Basketballs will be given to the first 500 students who attend.
For more information on this event contact Bill Mitchell at 407-425-2555
First Baptist Church of Kissimmee plans to hold an evangelistic block party at a nearby apartment complex. The congregation has enlisted Christian illusionist Drew Worsham at two events—a student rally on Saturday and an outreach effort on Sunday. For more information contact the church office at 407-847-3138.
First Baptist Church of Central Florida is planning Crossover activities throughout the week. From Wednesday through Sunday, the church will host the Florida Baptist Mobile Dental Unit to treat needy patients. Then on Thursday, a senior adult "Friends Day" will feature the Gospel singing group, the Dixie Echoes.
On Saturday, the Central Florida church will present a three-on-three basketball tournament beginning at 4 p.m. The event will also offer food and fellowship and a basketball skills challenge. Former Harlem Globetrotter Melvin Adams will speak during the event and during a youth rally in the church's Worship Center on Saturday from 6 p.m.-7 p.m.
Sunday from 3 p.m.-5 p.m. the church will host a block party for Kirkman Community Church at Poppy Park with the Strength Team as special guests. The Strength Team is a group of professional athletes who share their testimonies and the Gospel along with feats of strength.
For more information on any of these events contact the Central Florida church at 407-293-4571.
The Strength Team will also be special guests during the Community festival at Iglesia Bautista de la Trinidad in Apopka on Saturday from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. The Strength Team will perform from 11 a.m. to noon. For further information contact the church at 407-718-6261.
Also on Saturday, outreach festivals will be held at three Orlando churches, Hay Vida en Jesus, (407-927-1359); New Covenant Fellowship Baptist Church (321-443-6994); and Tangelo Baptist Church, (407-351-1585) from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m.
The Iglesia Bautista Santuario Adoracion in Winter Garden will be the site of two Crossover activities. A block party will be held at the church on Saturday from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m.; and then the Mobile Dental Unit will serve those with dental needs beginning on Monday.

Today's weather forecast: Dreamy
If you're in L.A. this weekend (and why wouldn't you be? The weather is going to be great; the fireworks shows spectacular), you must find time to stop into Joan's on Third. You may be wanting to avoid the place because there's likely to be a line out the door. But please persist. On the other hand, you might be headed there anyway—to pick up some potato chips, or fried chicken, perhaps. But you can skip those things if the line looks too long, OK? And go straight to the ice cream counter.
There, in place of what were some nondescript gelati, is now a quaint selection of ice cream from Portland's Salt & Straw. Recently, we were floored by how "Portland-y" owners and cousins Kim and Tyler Malek seemed. And also how sweet and exacting they were in both their love for and production of ice cream.
This is something that came out of Kim Malek's mouth: "We don't mean to sound too 'Portlandia' here, but we know the farmers and cows who produce our cream." Tyler chimed in, adding details about how they picked the bourbon they use for their coffee & bourbon flavor. And after we finished performing a half-hearted, obligatory L.A. eyeroll, we licked our spoon clean.
Joan McNamara is happy to have Salt & Straw on board. "I was looking for a long time before I found these two," she said. As Joan's on Third expands, so too does Salt & Straw's L.A. footprint. "It is part of my plan to place Salt & Straw in the next Joan's location, when it opens in Studio City."
So we urge you, this weekend, as soon as possible, get to Joan's on Third to taste the sea salt ice cream with caramel ribbons; coffee & bourbon (made with Stumptown coffee beans, obviously); chocolate gooey brownie (they fold marshmallow fluff into the brownie before baking it; pick your jaw up off the floor); and signature Meyer lemon and blueberry buttermilk custard.
Don't waste time with a scoop—this is the time to splurge on a whole pint ($11).
Salt & Straw at Joan's on Third, 8350 West Third Street, Mid-City, (323) 655-2285, joansonthird.com; saltandstraw.com

By Gumpy on 5/24/2014 Gumpy would recommend this product to a friend Previous to this unit, I owned what you could say was a bargain brand that just didn't work well. This unit is very well made and works perfectly. I'm so happy I bought this unit. Just buy it By Hamad on 5/15/2014 Hamad would recommend this product to a friend It worth the money , high quality .. Nice service and shipping , BRS your are the best. easy to use awesome unit the tds and pressure gauge really worth By sbmarvin on 5/12/2014 sbmarvin would recommend this product to a friend Love the unit. Easy to use and install. Easy to understand and follow. I am very glad I got this unit with the tds meter and pressure gauge. Lets you know that your keeping ideal flow rate. And the tds helps monitor filter life. Definitely would recommend this item. Very Pleased! By Carole on 5/3/2014 Carole would recommend this product to a friend I am very pleased with this unit. It is well made and easy to set up. Best RO/DI Unit By Raul on 5/2/2014 Raul would recommend this product to a friend wow. that's all i can say about the quality of this unit. super easy to set up. has all the fittings you would need to set up. Thanks BRS Works great By Shawna on 5/1/2014 Shawna would recommend this product to a friend We live where the water is so hard its almost chunky. 0 TDS coming out of this system every time. We run our water once a week and make about 20 gallons at a time. Hooked it up to the washing machine water faucet with a Y connector and mounted it on the garage wall. Couldn't be happier! Wonderful investment By Eric on 4/18/2014 Eric would recommend this product to a friend After reviewing many RO/DI systems online, I opted to purchase this one, and I cannot be more pleased. Very easy to set up (especially with the "how to" videos on Bulk Reef). I needed to purchase an adapter for my sink where I chose to install it. Works wonderfully. Originally the PSI was only around 35, so I did also purchase a booster pump from Bulk Reef to increase the PSI to a more proper and efficient level to produce more RO water and to maximize the DI use. Depending on your personal set up choice and the water pressure in your home, you may not need to purchase an additional booster pump. If you are a serious about this hobby an RO/DI system is a must in my opinion. What would I do without this?!?! Get one now! By MatraD on 4/8/2014 MatraD would recommend this product to a friend What a set up - when compared to what's on the market, the quality of this product, ease to maintain, knowledge from BRS all make it a must have. Just keep it clean to make sure it's optimal all the time! Great unit. Functional By Rafael on 4/8/2014 Rafael would recommend this product to a friend Had to buy adapter for kitchen sink but. Work we'll for first try.

Here is my trade offer...
The trade would be AAA, Chandler and Timmy and a first round pick for Howard. We might have to sub McGee in the deal in a sign and trade for Timmy. It's time for Denver to go big or go home, follow the broncos lead. If anything bring D12 here for a year and he might want to stay after playing with Ty, Gallo, Miller, Faried, McGee and Karl. If he leaves after the season we lost some players in the deal but have a ton of free money for next off season and still have our young core intact.
Thoughts? Is it worth the gamble? I think so
Here are some cool pics my buddy made of Howard in a nuggets uni that I put on my twitter
Howard looks good in powder blue!

My Story
Hello, and welcome to the Missing Loved Ones Network. Have you ever had to deal with losing a loved one because they've gone missing or been taken from you? The experience is not ideal, and while there are ways to cope, nothing replaces their presence in your life.
But if there were even the slightest chance to find them again, wouldn't you try?
My youngest sister was sold out of our family. Despite all the questions I asked, and the secrets that were kept, many of my family members died with the secret. I registered online with an adoption agency and found her because I knew who our birth parents were. Our reunion was joyous, and having my sister back in my life is one of the greatest blessings I've been given. I want to use my experience with finding my sister help you find your lost loved one. For me, the toil was all worth it, and I want to ease your burden by sharing what I've learned during the process of searching.
The Missing Loved Ones Network will act as a forum and a place to find support, suggestions, and actual help in your search. So many people don't know where to turn to when a family member goes missing. But here, we can become your family and give you the tools you will need to increase your chances of recovering your missing person.
Our motto here is "Never Give Up," and we never do. We understand, on a personal level, how it feels to have a loved one taken away, and we also know how it feels to recover them after years of searching—after years of never giving up. We can help you find the resources that will aid you in your search. We specialize in finding missing people, looking for missing relatives, and helping you and yours find closure.
Our methods are strong and sure. We have been helping people recover their missing family members since before computers became a part of the process. Since the advent of computers, we have adapted and added them to our process. We know that searching for missing loved ones is time consuming and all-encompassing. It can cause you a great deal of stress, or take up 24 hours of every day if you let it. This is another reason that bringing in outside help is so important and beneficial. We give you the tools you need to sort through information and become an expert detective in your own case. Finding missing people is not impossible—but if you never try, you'll never know what might have happened.
We cannot stress enough the importance of never giving up hope. There are times when leads will come back cold, trails will seem to stop, and nothing new will appear. However, miracles do happen. We have found missing people after years of no results.

Burl Ives - Big Rock Candy Mountain
1. On a summer day
In the month of May
A burly bum came hiking
Down a shady lane
Through the sugar cane
He was looking for his liking
As he roamed along
He sang a song
Of the land of milk and honey
Where a bum can stay
For many a day
And he won't need any money
Oh the buzzin' of the bees
In the cigarette trees
Near the soda water fountain
At the lemonade springs
Where the bluebird sings
On the big rock candy mountain
2. There's a lake of gin
We can both jump in
And the handouts grow on bushes
In the new-mown hay
We can sleep all day
And the bars all have free lunches
Where the mail train stops
And there ain't no cops
And the folks are tender-hearted
Where you never change your socks
And you never throw rocks
And your hair is never parted
3. Oh, a farmer and his son,
They were on the run
To the hay field they were bounding
Said the bum to the son,
"Why don't you come
To that big rock candy mountain?"
So the very next day
They hiked away,
The mileposts they were counting
But they never arrived
At the lemonade tide
On the big rock candy mountain
1. One evening as the sun went down
And the jungle fires were burning,
Down the track came a hobo hiking,
He said, "Boys, I'm not turning
I'm heading for a land that's far away
Beside the crystal fountain
I'll see you all this coming fall
In the Big Rock Candy Mountain
2. In the Big Rock Candy Mountain,
It's a land that's fair and bright,
The handouts grow on bushes
And you sleep out every night.
The boxcars all are empty
And the sun shines every day
I'm bound to go
Where there ain't no snow
Where the sleet don't fall
And the winds don't blow
In the Big Rock Candy Mountain.
3. In the Big Rock Candy Mountain
You never change your socks
And little streams of alkyhol
Come trickling down the rocks
O the shacks all have to tip their hats
And the railway bulls are blind
There's a lake of stew
And ginger ale too
And you can paddle
All around it in a big canoe
In the Big Rock Candy Mountain
4. In the Big Rock Candy Mountain
The cops have wooden legs
The bulldogs all have rubber teeth
And the hens lay soft-boiled eggs
The box-cars all are empty
And the sun shines every day
I'm bound to go
Where there ain't no snow
Where the sleet don't fall
And the winds don't blow
In the Big Rock Candy Mountain.
5. In the Big Rock Candy Mountain,
The jails are made of tin.
You can slip right out again,
As soon as they put you in.
There ain't no short-handled shovels,
No axes, saws nor picks,
I'm bound to stay
Where you sleep all day,
Where they hung the jerk
That invented work
In the Big Rock Candy Mountain.
