By Jim Wallace - bio | email ALBANY, GA (WALB) –South Georgia home school students got their science lessons from a touring mobile lab Thursday and Friday.
The Science Academy Mobile Lab spent two days in Albany at the Beattie Road Church of Christ giving classes to the Southwest Georgia Homeschool Association.
Joe and Nell Estes taught hands lessons in entomology, geology, chemistry, and electronics.
The Estes travel Georgia bringing students lessons that many don't get in their regular studies.
"We have microscopes on board. Some schools, especially for younger children, are not fully equipped with that type of equipment. So we bring equipment and things for them to see, but also give them hands on activities," said Nell Estes.
The Estes say their services are important because many public and private schools are cutting back on science labs because of the economy.
They've been delivering science lessons to the schools for nine years.

We attended the very successful launch of StarCraft 2 last night in Brisbane, which drew a massive crowd and showed you could very easily maintain the attention span of some 2000-odd hardcore gamers for more than two-hours. We'll have some awesome video of the night coming up soon, but today Dan and I will be heading out to catch up with SC2 producer, Kaeo Milker, to talk to him about everything StarCraft 2, Blizzard and Battle.net.
What we want from you, is any questions you'd like answered during said interview. And remember, this guy has been living and breathing this game and Blizzard lore in general for a long time, so it doesn't matter how hardcore your query is. Drop us a line in the Comments section to shoot us a question to throw Kaeo's way.
Also, be sure to check out two new SC2 vids we've posted up today: "Campaign Overview" and Battle.net Overview".

"The Relaxed Soul Finding Truth"
The most important part of life is finally finding out who we are deep down inside...
and appreciating even what we might call the bad.
And from appreciation we slowly move to love.
And with love we slowly create inner peace.
And with peace it doesn't matter what other people think---then we step outside the box to BE OURSELVES!

9Still Going Strong!!!
Camila Alves and Matthew McConaughey looked very much the happy couple at the grand opening of the Malibu Lumber Yard in (of course) Malibu.
Also there: The rarely seen Lacey Chabert (Claudia Salinger!!!), Mena Suvari (who's ditched the shaved-head look in favor of some long extensions), Rick & Kathy Hilton, Garcelle Beauvais, Holly Robinson Peete, Kelly Carlson and Vanessa Minnillo (sans Nick!).

38Kelly Carlson's Tits: Real or Fake???
Ha ha ha!
I'm just kidding, you guys.
Don't bother answering that.
The Nip/Tuck hottie shows off what she paid for at an after party at the Toronto Film Festival.

6Um, Did Someone Instruct the Entire Female Cast of Nip/Tuck to Show Up at the Season Five Screening Wearing Black Dresses?
Honestly, I half-expected to find a picture in this set of Julian McMahon in a tight little Prada number, but clearly he was too busy waxing his eyebrows to do anything about his legs.

4Kelly Carlson, Just Because I Have a Crush on Her
I remember the first time I saw this chick on Nip/Tuck, I was like, "That has to be the most beautiful woman I've ever seen," and, with that, Kelly Carlson quickly kicked Keira Knightley out of that spot in my book. She doesn't have the exotic, angular look that I usually go for in girls (I love you Jaslene, but please eat), but she's so classically beautiful I think I'd totally have to sleep with her.
Anyway, she was at the Fox TCA party in Santa Monica, along with other assorted members of the casts of Nip/Tuck and House, including Joely Richardson, who I love but who decided to wear her very best toad costume to this event. And does someone want to help me do the count-down to when Lauren Ambrose and Parker Posey find themselves in some manner of on-camera love scene? Because it can't be too long in coming, right?

Is there anywhere that a review of any overland company reviews could be written on TP ?
I have been on several trips with various company's so I would like to think I am qualified to write reviews (but other peoples reviews and comments should be welcomed as well
Can a company put their website in TP ?
Can they list the services and trips they offer ?
There is nowhere any research can be done for overland companies, except on their websites
There really should be somewhere to post reviews and I do know its difficult to find a country to post them in, because they usually cover quite a lot of countries and areas
Anyone else have any views on this ?

NorCal jam for a good cause. If you're around San Jose this Sunday get to it…
"For all those who are friends with Jorge Luzuriaga - or as we affectionately know him as "OSG" – would know that he was severely beaten and robbed after leaving the Sonoma Bike Expo on August 18th. Those thugs stole his camera, camera equipment and his beloved flatland bike. They beat him so bad, he had teeth knocked out, bruised and cracked ribs, a dislocated shoulder, multiple bruises and lacerations and a concussion…. One of the NorCal BMX Family's goals was to replace his bike. We already raised our goal of $1,200 – and with generous parts donations plus the cash donated, we will be able to replace his old, beat-up klunker with a brand new flatland ride. Any money left over will go to the Luzuriaga's to help with medical and dental bills. Jorge is the primary wage earner, supporting he and his wife while she attends medical school to better their lives.
With that, we are holding a JAM to further raise money for the Luzuriaga's. It will be on September 8th, 2013 at Lake Cunningham Regional Skatepark. Flatland, park and street riders are welcome."

From Western we'd gladly wear to turn-of-the-century style capable of going the extra mile, fall boots are anything but boring. Here, 11 picks our calves are craving:
1. Wild West: Sparkling studs and a distressed leather finish add fun to the Call-of-the-West Booties by Frye, $498.
4. Knee Highs: At $99, the price of the Chinese Laundry Tripin pull-on boot is right for testing out the season's over-the-knee trend. Also, wide 16" boot shaft makes these a good bet for larger calves.
6. Not-So-Plain Jane: Designed by Jane Alridge of Sea of Shoes, these Urban Outfitters exclusives, $158, combine lace-up drama, high heels and peep toes into show-stopping boots with vintage-minded appeal.

CATEGORIES Movies'Mad Men's' Abigail Spencer has joined Disney's 'Oz, the Great and Powerful,' Sam Raimi's prequel of sorts to 'The Wizard of Oz.' In the film, James Franco plays Oz, a sideshow magician who has to flee town in a hot air balloon, landing in a strange land that is in the midst of a battle between three witches, played by Mila Kunis, Rachel Weisz and Michelle Williams. According to The Hollywood Reporter, Spencer will play a young woman who is a willing subject of Oz's magic tricks in Kansas. Production begins later this month in Michigan.
The comic books and vampires keep a-comin'. Warner Bros. has picked up Image Comics' 'Undying Love,' a comic book mini-series that mixes traditional vampire lore with Chinese monster myths and Hong Kong action. According to The Hollywood Reporter, the story centers on an ex-soldier who falls for a girl who happens to be a vampire and the only way the two can be together is if he takes on the vampire who created her, which also means fighting an army of monsters in the Hong Kong underworld.
Seth Rogen, Will Reiser, Evan Goldberg and Jonathan Levine are 'Jamaica' bound. The quartet -- who collaborated on the cancer comedy '50/50,' which stars Joseph Gordon-Levitt, Rogen and Anna Kendrick and is slated for a Sept. 30 release -- have joined forces to develop a feature film for Mandate Pictures based on a vacation Reiser took with his grandmother when he was 14. "This is a story that I've long wanted to tell," Reiser said. "It's something of a passion project for me, and I couldn't be more excited to have found it a home at Mandate." Rogen and Goldberg will produce, Reiser will write the script and Levine is attached to direct. [TheWrap]
There's some action brewing on 'The Gangster Squad,' a project we haven't heard much about lately: Giovanni Ribisi has landed a co-starring role in Warner Bros' period crime drama about gangster Mickey Cohen and the elite Los Angeles police squad that went after him in the late 1940s. Sean Penn stars as Cohen and Ryan Gosling and Josh Brolin star as members of the gangster squad. Ribisi will play Conway Keeler, a cop in the group who is a master of electronics and wires. Ruben Fleischer ('Zombieland') directs. [Deadline]

Space-saving home innovation
Whether you live in a sprawling, suburban, four-bedroom abode or a 450-sq.-ft. urban apartment, there never seems to be enough space — particularly in the kitchen. And while we can't get enough of all the energy- and money-saving culinary and household gadgets out there, the ones that fold up, stack up and collapse down are grabbing our attention for their space-saving capabilities.
Joseph Joseph Nest 9 Plus
Nest 9 Plus from Joseph Joseph takes stacking to a whole new other-worldly level. The set includes nine individual food preparation items that nest together for compact storage: five measuring cups, one small non-slip mixing bowl with measurements, one stainless-steel mesh sieve, one colander/strainer and one large non-slip mixing bowl. The measuring cups securely snap together and allow measurements from 1 teaspoon up to 1 cup. All pieces are dishwasher safe.
T-fal Avanté Deluxe Toaster
Raise your hand if you love a crisp, toasty slice of toast in the morning, but don't have the counter space for those clunky toasters and toaster ovens. Enter the T-fal Avanté Deluxe Toaster, whose angled design takes up less space on countertops. Other innovative features include high-lift toast removal; safe cool-touch exterior; removal crumb tray; reheat and defrosting technologies; extra-wide, self-adjusting slots; seven customized toasting levels; and high-speed toasting.
Chef'n PrepStation Cutting Board
A cutting board where we can cut, carry and rinse? Sign us up, please. The PrepStation Cutting Board from Chef'n features a bamboo cutting board, a removable colander that expands for use and collapses, and a tray that slides in for storage. The company recommends hand washing the bamboo cutting board.
simplehuman flip-top dishrack
Without a dishwasher, your wet utensils and dishes need a safe place to dry. Scattering them around the kitchen countertop just doesn't do it for us. Instead, try the simplehuman flip-top dishrack, which can adjust to hold different types of kitchenware. A compact top shelf adjusts to three positions for storage. Use the shelf for quick access to glasses, or flip it up to make room for pots and pans and to create space for a chopping board. The shelf can also be extended all the way out to hold more.
Line Dry-Ve
There's always a few pieces of clothing that are just too delicate to take a turn in the dryer. And then the challenge commences: Where to hang those damp shirts and pants. The shower rod, your at-home pull-up bar, draped over the kitchen chairs? Or try this collapsible wall dryer, Line Dry-Ve, which pops open into a sturdy stand with a push on the catch. It extends out 4 ft., holds up to 50 lbs. and is sealed with corrosion-resistant materials to withstand tricky weather and heavy winds. Once your clothes are nice and dry, it collapses into a protective storage box in one push.
Black & Decker First Impressions Iron
What's less fun than ironing? Finding a neat way to store the iron cord. Black & Decker's First Impressions Cord Reel iron retracts the cord with the touch of a button. It also boasts an anti-drip feature, Auto Clean system and a Comfort Grip handle. And if your lack of space prevents the use of an ironing board, the iron also offers a selection of steaming options, including vertical steam.
black + blum lunch pot
black + blum has taken space-saving on the go with its microwave- and dishwasher-safe lunch pot, which includes two pots that feature a watertight locking seal, a spork and carry strap. And when you're not carrying around your yogurt, salad and nuts, the smaller pot fits in the larger pot.

Hermiston, OR -- Oregon State Police say a five-year old boy saved his father's life after his dad suffered a stroke while driving.
The boy named Dax called his mother Sunday to say they needed help, but he could not provide a location.
Spokane 9-1-1 dispatcher worked with a phone company to learn the phone's signal pinged on a cellular tower near Stanfield, Oregon.
A state trooper called the father's phone, and Dax provided a description of the area, including that a train was passing by.
That detail led troopers to a spot where they knew tracks paralleled the freeway. Trooper John Lombardi saw the vehicle on the shoulder of Interstate 84.
The father, though in critical condition, is expected to survive.
Dax's mother, Rachael Bardwell, says her son wants to become a police officer.

Chester man faces additional child sex abuse charges
Gary Britton, 61, of Chester was indicted on 15 counts of possession of child sexual abuse images in Rockingham County Superior Court. (COURTESY)
Gary Britton was indicted on 15 counts of possession of child sexual abuse images, which could keep him in state prison for the rest of his life if he is convicted.
Consecutive sentences could bring a minimum term of 115 years if Britton is convicted, according to indictments.
Prosecutors say Britton, 61, had a variety of images and videos on his home computer showing children engaging in sexual acts.
The images were discovered by his landlords in September 2011, prompting Chester police to seize the computer and have it forensically examined.
New charges against Britton came to light more than a week ago when public defenders petitioned a judge for state-approved funds so a forensic exam could be performed on Britton's computer.
The defense wants Britton's computer examined so it can determine for itself when "questionable pornographic images" were placed on a computer's desktop screen.
The indictments were made public Thursday.
Allegations about Britton having child pornography on his computer appeared in court documents and testimony for months.
Public defenders acknowledged in court papers that they would explore a plea deal for Britton, but it's unclear whether the latest indictments could upend that effort.
Britton is serving a 12-month jail sentence after pleading guilty for failing to register as a sex offender.
A grand jury indicted him in August on two counts of aggravated felonious sexual assault and two counts of felonious sexual assault.
Chester police initially arrested Britton for failure to re-register as a sex offender. Britton was evicted from his apartment on the same day - for unpaid rent - which set off a wider police investigation.
His landlords began going through Britton's belongings and turned on his computer, police said. They discovered the pornography on the computer and called police.
An examination of the computer provided information to police that Britton began sexually assaulting a girl in 1991, according to prosecutors. The girl was 9 years old when the series of assaults began, and continued until 1995, indictments say.
Each of the sexual assault charges are punishable by up to 20 to 40 years in state prison. He faces a felon in possession of a weapon charge for possessing a handgun that Police Chief William Burke found while police were executing a search warrant of the apartment.
Britton was barred from owning a gun for being convicted in 1983 of aggravated felonious sexual assault.

PLANO - Susan Williams knew her husband was dying -- that was hard enough.
Now, the widow of a longtime Plano teacher is dealing with an insurance headache that started with miscommunication and an 11-day difference.
Robert Williams taught math at Plano West Senior High and coached the hockey club. Last summer, he was diagnosed with stage-four lung cancer and underwent chemotherapy.
Though weak, he went to teach on the first day of school. It didn't go well.
"He said he wasn't able to keep up," Susan Williams said. "Sometimes the kids would ask him questions, and he'd have to think about it."
Williams took sick time. His wife said he went to the district's human resources department to make sure there were no issues with his life insurance policy, because the district had just changed companies.
"They said, 'Look, you signed up on time,'" Mrs. Williams said. "'You're paying your premium. Go home and get well.'"
Two weeks later, Williams died.
Susan Williams filed a claim to collect on his insurance policy. But it was denied.
The policy required the teacher to work one day; September 1, or any day after September 1. Robert Williams was there August 21, 11 days too early.
"Had they told him that he had to work one day, he would've gone in and worked one day," Mrs. Williams said. "Because then, his policy would've been in effect and he wouldn't have had any problems."
Susan Williams said her husband went to his grave thinking his family would be taken care of. They have a son with special needs.
"It hurts," she said. "And if they have done it to my husband, don't think for one minute, they're not going to do it to some other teacher who works in the school district and then something happens."
In a written statement from Plano ISD Superintendent Richard Matkin, district leaders say their old and new insurance carriers reviewed Williams claim, along with an independent firm.
Matkin says there was no change in the outcome.

Helping children digest the destruction and chaos left by Hurricane Katrina can be a heavy task. Experts say talking and listening are good first steps. Dr. Jack Naftel, Child Psychiatrist, University of North Carolina says, It's helpful for children not only to talk about it, but figure out ways to master this trauma."
Tapping into a favorite childhood activity, psychiatrists at the University of North Carolina came up with a creative way to help children achieve that sense of mastery, an interactive coloring book filled with activities designed to help children understand natural disasters.
Dr. Naftel says, "Helping the child plan ahead, things they can do to be safe if this occurs again." There are also tips for children who weren't in the storm's path but who are feeling anxious.

Is this what a Google smartwatch would look like?
by Jonathan Strickland | April 29, 2013
The folks over at T3 did something really interesting. They took all the rumors swirling around about Google producing a smartwatch. Then they took into consideration the design elements found in Google's Nexus line of products (smartphones and tablets). From that information, T3 created a mock up of what the watch might look like. They included a basic, compressed version of Google's Android operating system and the Nexus branding. There's a video behind the jump.

Bankruptcy Law
Unsealed Madoff Trustee Suit Details $6.4B Claim Against JPMorgan Chase
Posted Feb 3, 2011 8:18 PM CDT
By Martha Neil
Unsealed today in federal bankruptcy court, a $6.4 billion lawsuit filed late last year against JPMorgan Chase & Co. details the theories under which a trustee liquidating the business of convicted Ponzi schemer Bernard Madoff is seeking to force the bank to ante up for some Madoff investor losses.
Copies of the redacted complaint provided by the New York Times (reg. req.) and the Wall Street Journal (sub. req.) contend that Chase allowed Madoff to conduct banking business right up to the day of his December 2008 arrest, although the bank allegedly should have known the transactions didn't square with Madoff's supposed investment activities and alerted regulators earlier.
"As we allege in the complaint, JPMC had a palpable concern that Madoff was a fraud for years, but it was not until October 2008 that it reported Madoff to government officials," says attorney Deborah Renner of Baker & Hostetler, who is working with trustee Irving Picard. The bank, which meanwhile allegedly withdrew most, but not all, of the money it had invested in Madoff feeder funds, "appears," she says, "to have been concerned only with protecting its own investments," reports the New York Daily News.
In a detailed written statement responding to the suit that is published in a New York Times (reg. req.) article today, the bank says it did nothing wrong, and promises a vigorous defense against the "unfounded claims" in the lawsuit.
Madoff was not a significant commercial banking customer for JPMorgan Chase and the bank earned no extraordinary sums from standard fees it charged for his accounts, the statement says.
"At all times, JPMorgan complied fully with all laws and regulations governing bank accounts, including the regulations invoked by the trustee," it concludes. "In arguing otherwise, the trustee has misstated both the facts that JPMorgan has presented to him and the requirements imposed by federal law."
The Wall Street Journal (sub. req.) also has a lengthy article about the unsealed suit.

NBC -- Researchers looking for simple ways to treat autism say they may have explained why at least some cases occur: It all has to do with the stress babies undergo at birth.
They're already testing a simple drug for treating kids with autism and say their findings may point to ways to treat the disorder earlier in life.
It's all experimental, but the study, published in the journal Science, should inspire other researchers to take a closer look. "This is exciting stuff to people in the field, because it's getting at a basic mechanism," says Andrew Zimmerman of the University of Massachusetts Medical School, who reviewed the study.
Yehezkel Ben-Ari of the Mediterranean Institute of Neurobiology in Marseille, France, and colleagues have been treating children with autism with a diuretic called bumetanide that reduces levels of chloride in cells. Diuretics lower blood pressure by making people urinate more, reducing fluid.
Ben-Ari has had mixed success in his trials in kids, and wanted to prove his theory that chloride was the key.
He worked with two rodent "models" of autism — they're the closest things scientists have for replicating autism in a human. One has mutated genes linked with autism, and another develops autism when given valproate, an epilepsy drug blamed for causing autism in the children of mothers who take it while pregnant.
They looked at what was going on in the brains of the mouse and rat pups just before and after birth. Then they gave the mouse and rat moms bumetanide — and fewer of their newborns showed autistic-like behaviors.
It suggests that a reset button isn't working in the brains of newborns as they are delivered.
"We have proven the concept that in autism, indeed chloride is elevated and perhaps our diuretic acts in reducing that," Ben-Ari told reporters on a conference call. "We have shown that if we administer the diuretic to the mother for 24 hours before and during delivery, the offspring is … cured."
Ben-Ari has founded a company that is looking to develop a drug that might be used to treat autism.
No one suggests giving any such drug to a pregnant woman and especially not to a newborn. Its safety would have to be tested. Plus, right now there's no way of telling whether a pregnant woman's unborn baby is going to develop autism. "It's impossible in humans — that's the problem," Zimmerman says.
Autism is becoming more and more common among U.S. kids, and researchers don't quite understand why. The latest survey by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention shows 2 percent of U.S. children have been diagnosed with an autism spectrum disorder, which refers to a broad range of symptoms, from the relatively mild social awkwardness of Asperger's syndrome to profound mental retardation, debilitating repetitive behaviors and an inability to communicate.
Genetics are a large factor — if one twin has autism the other twin is very likely to — but genes don't explain it all. Better diagnosis doesn't explain all of it, either, and many scientists are looking at what happens in pregnancy. Some studies suggest that infections such as influenza during pregnancy may play a role.
There's no cure and no good treatment.
Zimmerman says the brain is overexcited in autism, and Ben-Ari says his study shows that chloride is responsible for at least some of this. The process of giving birth can re-set the over-excited neurons, and the new study in Science suggests that oxytocin, the so-called "love hormone" which is released during birth, may play a role in doing so.
The diuretic has similar effects, Ben-Ari says. He is currently treating kids aged 3 to 11 with it but thinks if autism could be diagnosed younger, and kids treated younger, it might be more useful.
"The possibility for perinatal treatment with an agent such as bumetanide is an enticing possibility for the prevention or early treatment of the disorder," Ben-Ari's team wrote in their report. "However, this would require an accurate way to determine whom to treat because symptoms of autism spectrum disorder often do not appear until the second year of life."
The study suggests a way to do this, Zimmerman says. The blood and amniotic fluid of pregnant women could be tested for chloride levels, and the newborns followed to see if those that develop autism wee exposed to more chloride in the womb.

A woman who lost her husband in a random act of violence and a heroin addict who was a lifelong friend of the dearly departed discover that the beloved husband and friend's unfortunate passing is actually a blessing in disguise in [[Feature~V275557~Open Hearts~elskerdigforevigt]] director [[Performer~P188572~Susanne Bier~susannebier]]'s Dogme-style drama. When her husband ([[Performer~P20329~David Duchovny~davidduchovny]]) was killed, Audrey Burke ([[Performer~P5863~Halle Berry~halleberry]]) didn't think she would be able to summon the strength to carry on. Jerry Sunborne ([[Performer~P18343~Benicio Del Toro~beniciodeltoro]]) is a heroin addict who was one of the recently deceased's oldest friends in life, but as a result of his addiction Jerry has lost everything that ever mattered to him. When Audrey discovers that Jerry is the one man who could help her move beyond the dire cycle of grieving that she has fallen into, her offer for him to move in with the family provides the addict with just the incentive he needed to finally get his life back in order. ~ Jason Buchanan, Rovi

Check out their 30-year dynasty.....
Concept album inspired by the life of Marilyn Monroe. An intoxicating mix of classic rock, powerful ballads and evocative lyrics...
Concept album based upon the history of The Knights Templar; their enigmatic existence, inextricably linked to the bloodline of Christ...
Beautifully packaged double-CD from Escape Music. Includes both albums (from 2003 and 1981 respectively) plus the full suite of lyrics...
Saracen's 'second coming' release from 2003. Heavy symphonic rock, including re-works of several classics from their halcyon days...
John Thorne, the original Saracen drummer, passed away peacefully on Thursday 7th June 2012, after a long battle with cancer. Aside from being a great rock drummer, John was the most affable, warm-hearted person it was possible to meet. This photograph (with John centre) was taken in Matlock during the summer of 1982.
The remaining Saracen members, from those halcyon days of the early 80's (left-to-right: Jason Gardner, Richard Lowe, Rob Bendelow and Steve Bettney) attended John's 'Celebration of Life', in Matlock Bath, on 15th June. So too did 80's road crew stalwarts Tony Casson, John 'Squib' Mannion and Aiden 'Dave' McHaffie.
In his eulogy, Rob said, "When visiting John and his lovely family a week before he passed away, I found his peace of mind and sheer bravery concerning the journey he was on to be truly uplifting and humbling".
John described his time with Saracen (circa 1979 - 1984) to be some of the best years of his life, holding dear the recording and many performances of the band's debut album - 'Heroes, Saints & Fools'. "I am honoured to have shared those years and memories with John", said Rob.
Saracen's forthcoming new album - 'Redemption' - will be dedicated to John, whose passing leaves a big hole in so many lives, particularly for his wife Anne and children Jake, Maddy and Sam.
A wonderful man...sadly missed...fondly remembered. John Thorne (1959 - 2012)

Options Proposed for Route 5 Improvements

Options Proposed for Route 5 Improvements
Leonardtown, MD - 2/9/2012
By Dick Myers
The Maryland State Highway Administration is considering several options for improvements to Route 5 (MD 5) in Leonardtown. There is, however, no money in the state budget to do anything beyond the current planning. There thus is no money for design, right-of-way acquisition or construction.
The town of Leonardtown has been pressing for a light at Abell Street/Moakley Street at Singletree development that is one entrance into St. Mary's Hospital. The development contains two medical office buildings, the headquarters for the St. Mary's County Board of Education and a number of single-family homes. The state has consistently refused to approve a light there, saying it wasn't warranted.
Instead the proposals under study by the state are:
·Alternative 1 – No Build (there alternative has been removed as the result of an open house held several years ago)
·Alternative 2 -- Spot improvements, such as adding or lengthening turn lanes.
·Alternative 3 – Five-Lanes, with a middle left and right turn lane.
·Alternative 4 – Four-Lane divided section with turn lanes at various locations and a landscaped median.
Alternatives 3 and 4 also have several options:
·Widening would occur on both sides of MD 5, except the area where the stream is located on the north side between Abell St. /Moakley St. and Clark's Rest Lane. In that area the road would be widened only along the south side.
·Additional intersection improvements at MD 5/243 and MD 5/2455 by adding longer left turn lanes and adding a traffic light at MD 243 and Merchants Lane.
·Converting the existing right in/right out entrance at Leonardtown Centre to a significant intersection with double left turn lanes and prohibiting certain turns into Leonardtown Centre. The length of the left turn lanes on northbound MD 5 at MD 243 would be reduced.
The next step in the planning process is a location/design public hearing scheduled for some time this spring followed by the state's response to the public hearing comments sometime this summer. .

The Florida United Numismatists Convention is being held in Orlando, and this year, a rare coin worth more than $2 million takes center stage. The 1913 "Liberty Head" nickel is believed to be one of five such coins still in existence. "It was recovered from a car crash in 1962 and kept in a closet for 41 years, because the owners were told it was a fake," said Don Pearlman with Heritage Auctions.It wasn't a fake, and the coin's estimated value is at least $2.5 million dollars. It is on display at the Orange County Convention Center this weekend.For details, visit www.FUNtopics.com.

Overseeding of pastures is an excellent management tool that improves pasture production, forage quality and ensures a good ground cover the following year without major pasture renovations.
Overseeding consists of planting seed in a field with existing grass cover in order to fill in bare patches and thicken the stand.
It can be done over the entire pasture or limited to trouble areas.
Since 2001, the Washington County 4-H program and local schools have provided for children in need with the Washington County Food for Kids Backpack Program. With the early deadline looming, the group needs the community's help to reach its goal.
According to Roberta Hunt, the local extension agent for 4-H youth development, the program is intended to provide weekend meals for children who may not each much, if at all, otherwise. The program allows a $100 allotment per student for the duration of the school year.
Dear editor,
Never in this great country's 200-plus years has any legislative branch of Congress filed a lawsuit against a sitting president for actions which it deems as inappropriate and illegal by basically by-passing Congress through the presidential power of 'executive order.'
No lawsuit was filed by Congress when Franklin Roosevelt circumvented Congress by issuing an 'executive order' to intern over 127,000 Japanese-Americans during World War II.
Middle school students at North Washington received a crash course on the inter-workings of state legislature last Wednesday morning, as they received a visit from Rep. Kim King.
King handed out activity and fact books relating to the legislative process, even providing students with the tools to suggest any law that they feel should be put into place.
King shared her background and some of the more interesting aspects of being in legislature before taking questions from the youngsters.
Imagine that your 42-year-old son has died after a four-year battle with a rare disease that has destroyed his internal organs. You are grieving at his casket the night of the wake when an official of the church—the church which earlier in this horrid week approved the ceremony—calls you, informing you that they can no longer honor your request to have the funeral in the church as planned tomorrow.
"Why?" you ask.
"Because we found out your son was married…to a man."
Just as many prepare to enjoy a well-deserved Labor Day holiday, area job opportunities are growing.
Unemployment figures are improving throughout most of Kentucky and workforce development professionals are optimistic that trend will continue.
In Washington County, the unemployment rate dropped to 7 percent in July, compared to 8.7 percent in July 2013, the Kentucky Office of Employment and Training reported last week.
In the team's fifth match of the season, the Washington County Commander boys' golf team was able to defeat the Green County Dragons for its third win of the year.
WC posted a 183 as a team while Green shot a 216.
The Commanders were led by freshman Landon Taylor, who carded a 42 on the evening.
Senior Luke Mattingly and junior Evan Mattingly each added scores of 44. All three of WC's top scores bested Green's top scorer, who recorded a 45.
Freshman John Mann rounded out the Commanders' final score with a 53.
I love this job.

I was very fortunate to have the opportunity to round out my summer by teaching a summer English program at Northwest Agriculture and Forestry University (NAFU) in Yangling, China.

The current home of the Nevada Legislature was built in 1971; the building to its north -- Nevada's capitol building -- was home to the Nevada Legislature for the previous 100 years.
Nevada's Legislature is a bicameral body made up of the 42-member Assembly and the 21-member Senate. The third smallest Legislature in the United States, the Nevada Legislature meets for a period of 120 days every odd year. The period between Legislative sessions is called the Interim. The Nevada Senate coordinates the Nevada Youth Legislature, and offers opportunities for members of the public, including tour groups, to participate in mock legislative sessions (called uLegislate).
The Nevada Senate, through its SENarts initiative, has undertaken labeling and identification of the rich collection of artwork that hangs on the walls in the Legislative Building. Because much of the artwork in the Legislative Building features Nevada people and places, or was created by Nevada artists, the building is a great place to explore. The Nevada Senate actively accepts donations of artwork and, through collaboration with others, features changing collections, with some of the art available for sale.
The Legislative Building is home a Gift Shop which is packed with fun and interesting books on Nevada, and other items including clothing, jewelry, postcards, toys, games, and other collectables.
The building has a cafe which operates under limited hours during the interim.
On the corner of East 5th and South Carson streets, Carson City
The Nevada State Legislative Building is open to the public for self-guided tours 8:00 am-5:00 pm, Monday-Friday.

59-year-old Cheltenham man killed by his own car after breaking down on the A417 near Birdlip
12:10pm Saturday 8th February 2014 in News By Shaun Dix
A MAN has died on the notorious A417 road near Birdlip after struggling to move his broken down car off the road.
The 59-year-old from Cheltenham, who was travelling with his son, was killed by his own black Toyota as he tried to get it off the carriageway at Crickley Hill, near the Air Balloon roundabout, at around 9.30pm on Friday, February 7.
A spokesman for Gloucestershire Police said: "While attempting to move the vehicle from the carriageway the man was struck by the car and suffered injuries.
"Paramedics and police attended the scene and the victim was taken to Gloucestershire Royal Hospital where he died a short while later."
The man was thought to be travelling northbound on the A417, in the direction of Cirencester, when the car broke down.
Officers confirmed that the man's death had been reported to the Gloucestershire coroner.
The road was closed in both directions between the Air Balloon Roundabout and the Shurdington Road junction following the collision and re-opened again around four hours later at 12.30am on Saturday, February 8.
Anyone with information to the accident is urged to contact Gloucestershire Police on 101 quoting incident number 445 of February 7.

Bumped from our fanposts. -BN Eds.
Ben Howland's teams are usually very good for 30 minutes. Unfortunately, college basketball games are 40 minutes.
Do you ever get the feeling that Howland's UCLA teams have a lapse in most games where they seem to stop playing? There's a reason for that. It's true. In 16 of the 22 games this season, they have allowed the opposition to go on a major run which turned a comfortable lead into a close game or a close game into a large deficit.
Here are the details:
UC Irvine - Outscored 28-12 in a 9-minute span to turn a 12-point lead into a 4-point deficit.
Georgetown - Outscored 23-5 in a 9-minute span to turn a 4-point lead into a 14-point deficit.
Georgia - Outscored 31-19 in the first 16 minutes.
Cal Poly - Outscored 34-14 in a 10-minute span to turn an 18-point lead into a 2-point deficit.
San Diego St - Outscored 36-20 in a 12-minute span to turn a 4-point lead into a 12-point deficit.
Texas - Outscored 36-21 in a 20-minute span to turn a 7-point lead into an 8-point deficit.
Fresno St - Outscored 23-9 in a 7-minute span to turn a 5-point lead into a 9-point deficit.
Missouri - Outscored 61-42 in a 21-minute span to turn a 10-point lead into a 9-point deficit.
California - Outscored 27-15 in a 10-minute span to turn a 16-point lead into a 4-point lead.
Stanford - Outscored 14-4 in a 5-minute span to turn a 15-point lead into a 5-point lead.
Utah - Outscored 21-11 in a 10-minute span to turn a 12-point lead into a 2-point lead.
Colorado - Outscored 27-16 in an 8-minute span to turn a 13-point lead into a 2-point lead.
Oregon -Outscored 31-19 in a 15-minute span to turn a 5-point lead into a 7-point deficit.
Arizona - Outscored 48-36 in a 21-minute span to turn a 16-point lead into a 4-point lead.
Arizona St - Outscored 44-27 in a 21-minute span to turn a 1-point deficit into a 18-point deficit.
USC - Outscored 37-16 in a 14-minute span to turn a 6-point lead into a 15-point deficit.
Some would say that all teams have their ups and downs in many games and that this UCLA team with its youth and lack of depth is especially vulnerable. That might be a reasonable explanation except that two years ago when UCLA had more experience and depth (but the same coach), with the exception of the opening exhibition, this happened in EVERY game and got worse as the season progressed.
Here is the game-by-game account.
Westmont - The only time UCLA wasn't outscored by at least 8 points in some segment of the game.
CSULA - UCLA up 32 with 11 minutes left. CSULA goes on a 14-4 run the next 5 minutes to cut the lead to 22.
CSUN - UCLA up 28 with 6 minutes left in the first half. CSUN goes on a 13-4 run the next 4 minutes to cut the lead to 19.
Pepperdine - UCLA up 3 with 13 minutes left in the first half. Pepperdine outscores UCLA 17-8 in the next 8 minutes to go up 6.
Pacific - UCLA up 17 with 6 minutes left in the first half. Pacific outscores UCLA 18-10 in the next 15 minutes to get within 9.
Villanova - UCLA down by 3 with 4 minutes left in the first half. Villanova goes on a 16-4 run in the next 5 minutes to go up 15.
Va Commonwealth - UCLA down by 1 with 19 minutes left. VCU outscores UCLA 29-19 in the next 12 minutes to go up 11.
Kansas - UCLA leads by 4 with 8 minutes left. Kansas goes on a 15-5 run in the next 6 minutes to go up 6.
Montana - UCLA down 6 with 13 minutes to play in the first half. Montana goes on a 13-2 run in the next 7 minutes to go up 17.
UC Davis - UCLA up 14 with 5 minutes to play. UC Davis goes on a 15-7 run in the next 5 minutes to pull within six.
Cal Poly SLO - UCLA up 17 with 11 minutes to play. CPSLO goes on a 13-3 run in the next 4 minutes to pull within seven.
BYU - UCLA up 12 with 15 minutes to play. BYU goes on a 13-3 run in the next 5 minutes to pull within two.
Montana State - UCLA up 14 with 5 minutes left in the first half. Montana State goes on a 28-12 run in the next 9 minutes to go up two.
UC Irvine - UCLA up 14 with 16 minutes to play. UC Irvine outscores UCLA 40-27 next 15 minutes to get within one.
Washington State - UCLA up six after 13 minutes. Washington State goes on a 25-11 run in the next 6 minutes to go up 8.
Washington - Game tied with five minutes left in the first half. Washington goes on a 27-10 run in the next 11 minutes to go up 17.
@USC - UCLA down one with 18 minutes left. USC outscores UCLA 30-20 the rest of the game.
@Oregon State - UCLA leads by 17 with 15 minutes left. Oregon State goes on a 21-4 run in the next nine minutes to tie the game.
@Oregon - UCLA leads by one with 12 minutes left in the first half. Oregon goes on a 16-3 run in the next six minutes to go up 12.
California - UCLA leads by 14 with five minutes left. Cal goes on a 28-14 run to tie the game in the last minute.
Stanford - UCLA outscored 22-8 in the first ten minutes.
@Arizona - UCLA down by 1 in the last minute of the first half. Arizona outscores UCLA 28-11 in the next 7 minutes to go up 18.
@Arizona State - UCLA leads by 12 with 10 minutes left. ASU goes on a 26-14 run to tie the game in the last minute.
USC - UCLA leads by 8 with three minutes left in first half. USC goes on a 11-2 run to take the lead 20 seconds into the second half.
St. John's - UCLA falls behind, 13-4 to begin the game and then has a 10 point lead with five minutes left but St. John's scores seven in a row in the next minute and a half to get back in the game.
Oregon - UCLA outscored 19-10 over a 10-minute first half span.
Oregon St - UCLA has 19-point lead with five and a half minutes left, wins by eight.
@Stanford - UCLA up by 12 with three minutes left, wins by four.
@Cal - UCLA outscored 17-6 to begin the game.
Arizona State - UCLA outscored 15-4 to begin the game.
Arizona - UCLA up 21 with 16 minutes left, then lets Arizona go on an 18-6 run.
@Washington - UCLA up four with five minutes left outscored 14-0 in next three and a half minutes.
@Washington St - UCLA outscored 30-15 in one first half stretch.
Oregon (Pac-10 tournament) - UCLA outscored 23-6 in nine minute stretch of the first half.
Michigan St (NCAA tournament) - UCLA has 23-point led with eight and a half minutes left. Wins by two.
Florida (NCAA tournament) - Game tied with six and a half minutes left. UCLA loses by eight.
Obviously, this would be normal for a bad team (that's why I didn't look at last season . . . we weren't very good) or a poorly coached team. But these lapses shouldn't happen so consistently for a good team. So why do we see this? Perhaps poor game management, substitutions and timeouts. Whatever it is, Howland needs a better bullpen because he rarely gets a complete game out of his players.

Feds order Aaron's Inc. to stop renting computers that spy on customers
By Susan Salisbury
The Federal Trade Commission said today it has approved a final order settling charges that Aaron's Inc. knowingly played a direct and vital role in its franchisees' installation and use of software on rental computers that secretly monitored consumers, including taking webcam pictures of them in their homes.
Under the terms of a consent agreement, first announced in October 2013, Aaron's is prohibited from using monitoring technology to gather consumers' information from rental computers, or receiving, storing or communicating such information, except to provide technical support at a consumer's request.
The terms of the settlement also bar the company from gathering information from any consumer product via geophysical location tracking technology without clearly notifying and obtaining express consent from consumers at the time of rental.
Aaron's is further prohibited from installing or activating such technology on rental computers that does not clearly notify consumers of its presence immediately before each use, including via a prominent icon on the computer.
The order further bars Aaron's from deceptively gathering information about consumers, and from using improperly obtained information to collect debt, money or property as part of a rent-to-own transaction. The company must delete or destroy any information it has collected improperly, and can transmit information obtained via monitoring or location tracking only if it is encrypted.
In addition, the order requires Aaron's to conduct annual monitoring and oversight of its franchisees for compliance with the terms of the agreement, act immediately to ensure compliance, and terminate any franchisee that fails to comply.

as in before he was even hired I did not want him, and the releases overnight, only serve to confirm my view, well one of them anyway
I know the guy was injured and this is a ruthless business, but in a team that used 5 RB's last year, only one of which was any good, and you decide to release the good one. How quickly we forget that after years of sitting behind Portis, he got his chance last year and had good solid outings every game, even though teams knew Zorn would run on 1st down more often that not, and they knew if we were running, we were definitly not running behind Heyer, so could double down on the left. Now after tendering, Heyer, they unceremoniously let Betts go
Now after saying all this, I dont know how is injury is progressing of course, and knee's can be a bitch, but after sitting uncomplainingly for years behind Portis and being a solid if unspectacular contributor, he really stepped up when needed last year, and now IN AN UNCAPPED YEAR NO LESS, the team that paid Haynesworth 110 million, doesnt even have a lazy million to give to a long serving Redskin, to see if he does recuperate from injury.
Which raises my main concern
Is this a Portis driven thing, I dont mean in the sense that Portis engineered it, but is it Shanahans way of saying to Clinton, that hey, even though you'll here some noise about FA RB's and we may even sign one, or use a pick on a RB, you are still important to us. Have we just cut a high character guy, to send a silent message to someone who most who have watched him think is done...I hope not
mostly though, I hope I'm wrong about Shanahan, but in amongst some of the good stuff that has happened in the last few months, sits little red flags like this one

Keyshawn Johnson-ing verb
The act of the Carolina Panthers bringing in an aging, troubled receiver to both stimulate their offense, while also placating another aging receiver, thus making him secure he's not the only 'playmaker' in the passing game. First and last seen in 2006.
Five years ago the Carolina Panthers were coming off one of the most successful seasons in team history. The team went to the NFC Championship game, but were ultimately outmatched by the more explosive Seattle Seahawks. Veteran WR Steve Smith had a scintillating year as he amassed over 1,500 yards receiving and won the receiving triple crown.
Across the other side of the field it was a different story. No other Panther WR managed to get over 25 receptions, and it was RB DeShaun Foster who was 2nd on the team in passes caught. The solution then was simple: Get another weapon. The thought was that with an already effective running game, a 1,000 yard receiver like Steve Smith and Jake Delhomme who came off a pro-bowl year the sky would be the limit.
The Panthers signed the player (and the baggage) that was Keyshawn Johnson...
More after the jump...
The Keyshawn experiment worked pretty well for the Panthers in 2006, but the defense wasn't quite as good as advertised and when DeShaun Foster was relied on to be the feature back he was mediocre. That being said, Johnson finished with over 800 yard receiving and 4 TDs at the age of 33, so should that really dissuade the Panthers from trying this tactic again?
As it stands there are numerous veteran WRs rife for 'Keyshawn Johnson-ing'. We've discussed the usual players before:
- Randy Moss (34 years old)
- Chad Johnson (33 years old)
- Terrell Owens (37 years old)
- Plaxico Burress (33 years old)
Each of these four players are damaged, all carry their own brand of baggage and all of whom would come at a cheap price. They also share in common all being former 1,000 yard receivers and having being the kind of tall targets Rob Chudzinski has used in his offenses in the past.
Do you think the Panthers will go Keyshawn Johnson-ing this offseason? Personally, I think it's a difficult prospect only because of the young talent currently in the receiving corps. Who are you willing to lose to get one of these players? I'm not sure there's a good answer to that question, even if someone wants to give a tongue-in-cheek answer and slyly say 'Armanti Edwards'.
Suppose for a second though that roster isn't a concern... imagine the Panthers didn't need to worry about roster limitations. Which of these four WRs would you have the Carolina Panthers sign, should they decide to bring in a veteran WR? My answer is simple, and the polar opposite of when the question was posed this time last year.
I would sign Terrell Owens.
The reasons for this move are simple, to me he's the best option out of these four to be a vertical passing threat and could help a big armed receiver like Cam Newton. From a pure passing perspective Newton is similar in his delivery and arm strength to Carson Palmer, whom Terrell Owens worked incredibly well with last year.
Yes, there is absolutely baggage in bringing in Owens. However, I feel that Newton would have the stones to stand up to his ego even during criticism. I don't see Cam as the 'wilting flower' type that would be crushed if yelled at. Furthermore, I feel Owens is the only guy on the list who has true #1 receiver potential left in him. Adding TO would allow Gettis to start opposite him, and Smitty to get his wish- play out of the slot.
When you have two clowns in the same place you wind up with a circus, and that's what occurred in Cincinnati with Owens and Johnson, however, with Smith infused in the situation you have a player who just wants to win. He wont make talk shows with TO, he won't do push-ups in his driveway and you never know another big ego at WR could help keep Owens in check a little bit.
I'm stopping short of outright lobbying, but it makes a lot sense for a lot of different reasons.
