ROCHESTER, Minn. (KTTC) -- IBM employees in Rochester kicked off their charitable contribution campaign.
Some IBM employees took an early lunch Wednesday as they filled the cafeteria in an effort to make a difference.
Organizers say the theme of this year's event is "I am in." Jen O'Hara, who lost her daughter Shannon to brain stem cancer, spoke to employees. O'hara said Shannon fought to "make a difference" until the very end, and the O'Hara family carries on that vow today through their organization.
"Yes obviously our story is a sad one. Shannon is not a survivor. But the lessons she taught us and the lessons the community taught us and the kindness of others taught us really is story of hope and inspiration," O'Hara said.
After this personal story, IBM'ers filled backpacks for Channel One Food Shelf and Food Bank. Organizers say they're filling 5,000 of these backpacks for children in need.

This is the perfect time to fire Mark Jackson and trade Klay Thompson! Why?
- Worst offense in the NBA
- Team offensively out of control
- Team still does not know how to set and use a pick
- Discord in the locker room
- Troubles with sub-par teams (cockiness - haven't earned the right to be)
- Inconsistency is destroying team play
- Lack of rebounding
- Terrible defense
- Fouling too many jump shooters
- Runs the 3pt line rather than the basket
- Terrible handles
- Cannot finish at the basket

'The Writings of Abraham Lincoln': How the 16th president used language to change historyAugust 19, 2012 12:00 PM
Share with others:
In Abraham Lincoln's second inaugural address, given after four years of war, he offers two passages from the Gospels that seem at odds with each other.
The first is from Matthew 7:1: "Let us judge not that we be not judged." Whatever violence Southern people do by "wringing their bread from the sweat of other men's faces," Lincoln says, they are just what we would be in their situation.
Yale University Press ($18).
The second sounds a different note. Quoting from Matthew 18:7, Lincoln suggests that circumstances like geography and culture do not absolve the actor of his guilt: "Woe unto the world because of offences! For it must needs be that offences come; but woe to that man by whom the offence cometh."
Lincoln's tricky theological problem -- how to understand guilt and responsibility in relation to the web of circumstances that partly confine an action -- is the subject of Yale political science professor Steven B. Smith's essay at the close of "The Writings of Abraham Lincoln," a selection that Mr. Smith also edited.
Mr. Smith's essay, like the three others that accompany this finely organized collection, is about language -- how Lincoln used language to change history and how Lincoln shaped America's political tongue itself. With equal attention to the political and philosophical forces pressing on the president, the book offers a penetrating account of how Lincoln, in laying the groundwork for a new public opinion, insisted on truths his opponents had put in peril: that ideas breathed, and words mattered.
• • •
In the book's most poetic essay, University of Chicago professor Ralph Lerner documents Lincoln's efforts to "reconceive American nationality" by giving a prominence to the universal ideals of the Declaration of Independence that they had never known.
In another essay, Danilo Petranovich of Yale agrees, but asks that we not allow Lincoln's political poetry to obscure "the more radical vision of American national identity" -- one where the Union as then constituted was not worth saving -- that Lincoln preached.
Finally, Michigan State University professor Benjamin Kleinerman makes a difficult argument that a close reading of Lincoln's writings shows that he believed more deeply in the constraints on executive power than the average observer has been led to assume.
But it is Mr. Smith's essay that takes on the collection's trickiest, and most consequential, question: The meaning of the speech Mr. Smith calls "the single greatest expression of American civil theology," Lincoln's "modern Sermon on the Mount."
Mr. Smith shows how Lincoln goes beyond the language of natural law to make an argument primarily religious in nature: that the purposes of the Almighty are perfect and unknowable and war is the justice due to the South for endorsing and the North for acquiescing to the national sin of slavery.
But on the question of how Lincoln reconciles moral responsibility, on the one hand, with the role of circumstance, on the other, Mr. Smith is evasive. He correctly denies those who would understand Lincoln to be abdicating his own historical role by emphasizing circumstance and necessity. But Mr. Smith then frames Lincoln's juggling act as a political calculation: though Lincoln must have believed in personal responsibility, Mr. Smith suggests, it was better for him to frame the momentous war as an act of necessity rather than an act of choice.
Lincoln's speech holds a deeper truth about self-memory. In an 1863 letter, Lincoln tries to persuade Unionists that they should fight alongside Negroes to save their country: "There will be some black men who can remember that, with silent tongue, and clenched teeth, and steady eye, and well-poised bayonet, they have helped mankind on to this great consummation; while, I fear, there will be some white ones, unable to forget that, with malignant heart, and deceitful speech, they have strove to hinder it."
• • •
Lincoln suggests in his second inaugural that necessity and circumstance can guide the tide of history. But for our lives to have meaning, we must tell ourselves that we did what we could do when the forces of necessity allowed it. Americans, Lincoln says, must act today in order to tell a coherent story about themselves tomorrow.
Lincoln writes in a later letter to Thurlow Weed that this theological understanding "is a truth which I thought needed to be told; and as whatever of humiliation there is in it, falls most directly on myself, I thought others might afford for me to tell it."
What humiliation did Lincoln have in mind? Mr. Smith calls the letter an acknowledgment of the tragic price of war, of the "old nostrum that all politics entails 'dirty hands.' " But it is possible Lincoln was thinking rather of his own once-permissive stance toward slavery.
Lincoln knew that history was moving inevitably toward the eradication of slavery. Yet for years, acting in opposition to that necessity, he supported the Fugitive Slave Law and the rights of Southern slaveholders. Lincoln felt the burden of this acquiescence as deeply as those he had warned would be "unable to forget" that "they have strove to hinder" the coming of freedom.
Lincoln was America's theological storyteller. But he was not only the author of that story. Lincoln owes part of his lasting significance to the fact that he was also a character in it -- capable of explaining with uncommon human sympathy the moral standard for which we must strive.bookreviews

(02/20/14) - Many side roads around Mid-Michigan are in poor shape. They're
covered in ice and are dangerous to travel on.
Imlay City and Lapeer schools canceled classes partly because side roads, especially gravel ones, are slick and filled with potholes.
A Lapeer County sheriff's deputy says the eastern side of the county is in worse shape.
The rain and freezing rain that have fallen Thursday tended to glaze over the snow already packed down on the road.
Nonetheless, people have to drive on these roads and they say it's not fun.

While cities and regions experience both the positive and negative effects of immigration firsthand, they are typically at arm's length, at best, from the policy reins that enable and shape these movements. Immigration policies are rarely calibrated to regional, let alone local, needs. This Transatlantic Council on Migration Statement examines how policymakers at all levels can work together to get more out of immigration.
A quiet policy transformation is taking place in Europe, as policymakers increasingly turn to a strategy of "mainstreaming" immigrant integration—seeking to reach people with a migration background through needs-based social programming and policies that also target the general population. This report assesses mainstreaming efforts across government in Denmark, France, Germany, and the United Kingdom.

News: Q-Tip To Ink "Industry Rules" Tell-All Book
Wednesday, Jul 15, 2009 5:05PM
Rap pioneer Q-Tip has reportedly decided to ink a tell-all book called Industry Rules which will reflect his rap career including his falling out with A Tribe Called Quest.
Set to be released later this year, Tip will address multiple aspects of his career.
He has signed on the dotted line with Ballantine Books for an unexpected memoir. Titled Industry Rules, Q-Tip is expected to carefully construct his life story that includes growing up in Queens, his rise and fall with A Tribe Called Quest and subsequent solo success thereafter. The book, also in cooperation Random House Publishing Group, which owns Ballatine Books, was sold recently and according to a release is "a creatively constructed telling of his life story". (Examiner)
Other rappers have begun making book deals including Jay-Z who recently confirmed signing a three-release deal.
"Yeah, the other two books though, you know I had to sign that deal," Hov confirmed in an interview. "I've done the deal to do a book and the name of it is called Decoded. It's called Decoded because I'm going to decode all the lyrics from my records. I'm gonna pick the select ones, all the double entendres and things that people may have missed or may have gotten but want confirmation on it. That's what the book is about, it's called Decoded." (V103)
Ghostface Killah will also release his own graphic novel later this month.
To his fans, Cole Dennis is a heavyweight contender with a devastating right hook. To a city being held hostage to chaos and terror, Dennis has a grit and charisma that make him the shining hope for justice--until he is arrested for a brutal murder. Framed for a crime he did not commit, he finds himself captive in a foreboding high-tech superprison whose masters secretly conspire to turn inmates into tomorrow's most terrifying bioweapons -- with Cole Dennis as the intended prize specimen. But Dennis is nobody's lab rat. Reborn as a towering engine of destruction, Dennis will prepare for the fight of his life. He will rename himself Ghostface Killah. And his cry of righteous rage will echo beyond the cold steel walls of Cell Block Z. (Hachette Book Group)
Tip is also following in Styles P's footsteps as he preps the release of his own book.
"I also got a fiction book coming out," Styles confirmed in an interview. "A fiction novel called Mr. Invincible. That'll be in a couple months, so go support that. I'm getting my author up. I just wanted to make sure I'm comfortable and got a few things I could do that I enjoy doing. I'm a creative person and I like creating. So I just wanted another job where I could create and make some money and doing something that I like to do." (Forbez DVD)
A release date for Industry Rules has not yet been announced.

Wildlife officials in Georgia and North Carolina are working to arrest and stop illegal bear hunting as part of Operation Something Bruin.
Georgia Department of Natural Resources officials said the four-year undercover operation has snagged 80 violators and nearly 980 violations leading to state and federal charges against poachers in the southeast.
GDNR officials said they have eight defendants facing a total of 136 state charges alone. The multi-state arrests began on Tuesday.
GDNR agents along with North Carolina Wildlife Resources Commission officers infiltrated poaching circles, documenting violations including bear baiting, illegal theft of bears, deer and other wildlife, illegal use of dogs, illegal operation of bear pens and guiding hunts on national forest lands without the required permits.
The U.S. Forest Service, the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service and the National Park Service were also involved in the operation.

Galaxy Nexus: First Android 4 smartphone triumphs -- almost
A gorgeous screen, business-class security, and Android 4 push this smartphone to a new level. Too bad about the several flawsFollow @MobileGalen
Security and management
A big change for smartphone users with Android 4 is the inclusion of Android 3's security and management capabilities, such as support for on-device encryption, for VPNs, and for more EAS policies (including failed-attempt lockout and password histories). Exchange's remote lock and remote wipe capabilities are also supported, as in Android 2.x. Unfortunately, Android 4 continues the Android 3 approach of requiring users to turn on device encryption -- it's not automatic -- then wait for an hour or more for the initial encryption to be applied. Fortunately, that's a one-time activity.
Unfortnately, the VPN settings are buried in the network settings' More submenu, and the options are certain to scare most users away, as you get a list of incomprehensible acronyms to choose from when setting up. I could not get the Galaxy Nexus to work on my company's IPSec network, as none of the IPSec options had options for entering the group ID, just its preshared key. I tried various permutations hoping one might work, but no such luck. The problem seems to be that Android 4, like its predecessors, doesn't support Cisco's IPSec, which my company uses. Of course, I had no such issues on an iPhone.
Android 4 also fails to fix a flaw in previous Android versions that prevent devices from connecting to Wi-Fi networks using the PEAP security protocol due to a problem in handling its corresponding certificates. You won't find this flaw in other mobile OSes.
These security changes mean that Android 4 smartphones are now on par with Android 3 (and 4) tablets, and closer to the level of iOS devices when it comes to meeting common business security needs. And Android 4, again like Android 3 but unlike iOS, lets you know exactly what controls your EAS administrator is imposing.
Android 4 introduces a lock mechanism based on facial recognition, which is easily defeated by using a photo of a person. But the good news for IT is that if you enable a PIN or password requirement on a Galaxy Nexus or other Android 4 device via EAS, this facial recognition unlock is disabled.
A flagship Android that doesn't quite meet expectations
When I first got the Galaxy Nexus to test, I was smitten. That gorgeous, big screen made my iPhone 4 look puny by comparison. The enhanced widgets capability and text correction mechanism both showed me that Apple doesn't own the whole town when it comes to good UI.
But the more I used the Galaxy Nexus, the more I was bothered by the mélange of interface approaches, the inconsistencies in common UI elements, the unfaithful rendering of the Android browser, the poor battery life, and the generally more limited capabilities of most core apps. I know the Android fanboys don't want to hear it, but the Galaxy Nexus is no iPhone-killer, and Android 4 -- which honestly is cleaned-up, enriched, smartphone-resized Android 3 -- doesn't beat iOS 5, much less the iCloud/iTunes/iOS ecosystem.
Still, there's a lot of good in both the Galaxy Nexus and Android 4, and the combination should be on the short list of anyone looking for an Android smartphone. In many respects, the Galaxy Nexus beats the previous Android champs, Motorola Mobility's smartphone family, but the poor battery life prevents me from declaring the Galaxy Nexus as the undisputed new champ. If the Galaxy Nexus intrigues you, hold off and see if one of the inevitable flood of new Android 4 smartphones offers the same luscious screen with better battery life.

---- — DANVERS — The Danvers football team had a solid stretch of play where it hit hard, produced points, and generally out-played its rival from Gloucester.
Unfortunately for the Falcons, that emotional play didn't come until they had already fallen behind by three scores.
Danvers nearly erased a 22-point deficit, but couldn't completely close the gap and suffered its eighth straight Thanksgiving Day loss to Gloucester, 28-19.
"When you give a rival momentum and confidence and make them feel like everything they're doing is successful, it just makes their job that much easier," Danvers coach Sean Rogers said. "You can't wait until the second half to try to play football; it's just too late at that point."
Danvers, which finishes the season 5-6, managed only 55 yards of offense in the first half. The Falcons couldn't get their dangerous ground game in motion, and they couldn't slow down the Fisherman attack, either.
Gloucester junior running back John Curcuru broke touchdown runs of 62 and 28 yards in the first half, and senior quarterback Santo Parisi added a 29-yard scoring run to post the guests to a 22-0 advantage.
The Fishermen (4-7), who ended the season with three consecutive wins, nearly put the game out of reach late in the first half. Gloucester's final drive of the first half stalled in the red zone just before intermission.
The first two quarters proved to be a wakeup call for the Falcons as they scored twice in the third quarter to make it a nine-point game (22-13).
"We just told our kids that they gotta start playing," Rogers said. "They just were not playing football and we just put it on them to start playing and execute their assignments and be physical. When we started being physical we played much better in the second half. You just can't wait until the second half to start football. That really hurts us today."
Danvers' second-half surge was due in large part to Rogers' decision to shift to a spread formation. Operating primarily out of an empty backfield, sophomore quarterback Nick Andreas began moving the Falcons through the air.
After completing 1 of 4 passes for 1 yard in the first half, Andreas connected on 8 of 17 second-half passes for 179 yards. He threw a 58-yard touchdown pass to classmate John Thomas and hit Alex Valles for a 55-yard score late in the fourth quarter.
"I don't think there was a (second half) letdown on our part. I think the Danvers coaching staff got Danvers ready to play," Gloucester coach Tony Zerilli said. "They came out in that second half and they were hitting, they were high, they were flying, and they were all over the place on defense. We had trouble finding them and had trouble blocking them that second half."
Valles, who has been a touchdown machine the second half of the year, got Danvers on the board with a 43-yard TD run early in the third quarter.
Despite playing well after the half, Danvers was plagued by a pair of second-half turnovers.
Trailing by only nine points, an Andreas pass slipped through the fingers of an open receiver and was grabbed by Gloucester defensive back Mark Horgan. The Fishermen then needed only seven plays to regain control. Parisi, who was noticeably hobbling from an ankle injury, crashed into the end zone from a yard out late in the third quarter.
"Anytime you get a turnover and turn that into points it changes the momentum," Zerilli said. "I was saying it's a momentum game. We have momentum in the first half, they came back and had momentum in the second half, and until that pick they had momentum. Turning that into a touchdown flipped the switch back the other way."
The Danvers defense forced a punt early in the fourth quarter, but then fumbled the ball away on a fourth-and-1 near midfield.
Andreas' touchdown pass to Valles was also followed by a successful on-side kick, but the Falcons failed to move the ball after that and Gloucester was able to run out the clock.
Gloucester got offensive balance from Curcuru (18 carries, 165 yards), Jordan Pallazola (15-83) and Parisi (6-69).
Valles caught five passes for 92 yards and also rushed for 55 yards on 10 carries.
"I thought our seniors stepped up and really led in the second half," Rogers said. "The seniors deserve a lot of credit, and not just for what they did in the second half but for what they've done the last four years."

RUSHING: Gloucester — John Curcuru 18-165, Jordan Pallazola 15-83, Santo Parisi 6-69, Mark Horgan 10-22, Devin Hemeon 1-6; Danvers — Alex Valles 10-55, Alex Grant 6-24, John Thomas 3-19, Anthony Garron 1-2, Nick Andreas 5-(-2).
PASSING: Gloucester — Parisi 3-7-29-0-0, Conor Harris 0-1-0-0-0; Danvers — Andreas 9-21-180-2-1.
RECEIVING: Gloucester — Hemeon 2-29, Horgan 1-0; Danvers — Valles 5-92, Thomas 1-58, Garron 1-19, Jake Cawlina 1-10, Max McKinnon 1-1.
You ought to know After an 0-2 start in the league, Gloucester ended up finishing in second place in the Northeastern Conference/Cape Ann League Tier 2 with a 3-2 record, behind only undefeated Beverly. The future does look bright for Danvers with quarterback Nick Andreas and running back John Thomas only in their sophomore years, and junior running back Alex Valles still has a senior year to look forward to. "We gotta get in the weight room and do all the offseason stuff, get bigger, faster, stronger and start back at ground zero next year. It's a whole new team. We're losing 18 seniors. We gotta find our identity this offseason." Danvers coach Sean Rogers said about next fall's prospects. The Fishermen now hold a 44-19-2 advantage in this rivalry overall, and lead 35-15 on Thanksgiving. Danvers took 45 yards of penalties in the first half. Cathy Newbegin, long-time Danvers Secretary to the Director of Athletics, was presented with a bouquet of flowers at halftime. Yesterday was her final day on the job. She's retiring and moving to Florida.

CATCHING up with friends over coffee provides stress relief for any parent, but for parents or carers of children with special needs or chronic health conditions meeting up with those in similar situations is an added lifeline.
Serenity Clarke, Tammy Kirby and Kelly Gleeson have been part of the five-member carers' support group MyTime for just over two years and the three mums can't praise the concept enough.
Each month the group meets informally at the Celebral Palsy Alliance in Prince Street while a play helper keeps their children busy in the room next door.
"I heard that someone watched the kids while I had a cuppa for two whole hours and I thought, 'I'm there'," Ms Clarke said of when she first heard about the group.
She has three children, two with disabilities.
Maddie, 6, has development delays caused by velocardiofacial syndrome, giving her high anxiety and making school a challenge.
"She was very slow to reach all her milestones and her speech came slow," Ms Clarke said.
Four-year-old sister Willow has progressive osseous heteroplasia, meaning her soft tissue is slowly turning to bone and affecting her right arm.
"For me going to the group when they were small was timeout because they are very full-on kids," she said.
"At the moment it's pretty cruisy so it's more for what their future is going to hold."
Ms Kirby agreed the future can be a daunting prospect for parents of children with disabilities, especially finding the right help and choosing schools.
Two of her three children, twins Paige and Alexander, 7, were born premature.
They have development delays that affect their communication.
"The group has other mums in different situations," she said.
"It also makes you aware there are places you can turn to. The next group meeting will have a representative from the Department of Education which for me is beneficial."
Mother of two Ms Gleeson agrees.
Her son Josh, 4, has cerebral palsy and significant intellectual disabilities caused by global delays, which won't be diagnosed until he starts school.
"He's growing bigger but his comprehension is that of a two-year-old at best," she said.
"Even if there's a pot of boiling water he doesn't understand if he pulled it off it would hurt him and burn him."
Ms Gleeson looks forward to the group's monthly meeting as a place to find support, access services and learn from the experiences of others.

Dog Crates
Welcome to DogCratePlace.com
If you are a dog owner, Dog Crates are an essential tool for training and transporting your dog. Dog crates offer a safe, secure enclosure during air or road travel, and can also give your dog a safe haven within the home and prove to be an invaluable training tool.

Click here for more soft sided dog crates
There are a wide variety of dog crate types and sizes to suit different needs. For example, larger crates make a good home for your dog and a safe place for your pet to sleep or just retreat when they need to, and a good place to secure your dog when you leave the house. These larger crates however are not as mobile. Smaller, more mobile crates a perfect for transporting your dog, but might not be suitable as a permanent home.
Introducing a dog crate into your dog's training regime can speed up the house training process to as little as 7 days and prevent your dog from wreaking havoc in your home while unsupervised! Wild dogs live and find shelter in dens, and dog crates can provide a similar safe haven for your dog to seek shelter, protection and comfort within your home.
Why should I use a dog crate to train my dog?
Dog crates are a great training tool for new dog owners. Dog crates make house training much easier and prevent any damage to furniture and belongings while your dog gets accustomed to his or her new surroundings. If your dog is going to remain unsupervised during the day, a dog crate will prevent your dog from causing mischief while unsupervised.
Dog crates designed for transportation, such as wire dog crates or smaller plastic dog crates ensure that your dog travels comfortably and guarantees both your safety and the safety of your pet. A loose dog can be extremely dangerous in a car if he or she gets excited or frightened, and using a dog crate designed for transportation is the smart thing to do.
FAA approved dog crates and dog cages allow you to transport your dog via air, and keep your dog safe and comfortable during the journey.
Crate Training
Crate training with a dog crate makes house training your dog a simpler and much faster process. Dogs react well to repetitive training and positive reinforcement, so associating your dog crate with positive emotions and praise, and being consistent with your dog's routine, is a big step toward training your dog to treat the dog crate like a home instead of a place where he or she is ordered to go.

Thiruvananthapuram is the capital city of Kerala, a southern State of India. Kerala occupies a unique position in the history of India and the world.
It is the only state in India which can claim the status of having 100% literacy. It is also a state which is having the highest human development index and social development in India, which is comparable to the best of the developed countries in Europe. Wedged between the Western Ghats on the East and the Arabian Sea on the West, the narrow strip of land known as Kerala is a nature's beauty to be cherished for a lifetime. The entire eastern boundary of the state comprises of the Western Ghats running to around 620 kms in length and its Western boundary is the Arabian sea with a coastal line of around 590 kms. The width of the state varies from 12 kms to 120 kms. The state is blessed with abundance of rivers, fresh drinking water sources, flora, fauna and other natural resources and is the home to the endangered species of Asiatic elephants, tigers and other endemic species, all of which are under severe threat due to human greed, development and exploitation.
Even though the state of Kerala has the highest density of population in India, the state is full of greenery with abundance of trees and is known as the 'God's own country' for its green cover, exotic back waters and lakes (both fresh water and saline), hill stations, pristine forests including the evergreen tropical rain forests of the Western Ghats situated at heights varying from 100 meters to 2650 meters, beaches etc.
Kerala tourism
Kerala is named as one of the Ten Paradises of the World and Fifty Places of a Lifetime by the National Geographic Traveler Magazine. The alluring serenity of this place leaves every tourist spell bound, making them come back year after year. Be it the sun-kissed beaches or the misty hill stations; the rhythmic backwaters or the forests immensely rich with variegated flora and fauna; pilgrim centers or historic monuments; Kerala has a grand panorama, spread far and wide to be seen. This land holds promise of leaving visitors mesmerized and gifting them with one of the best holidays they have ever had. Kerala is one of the most sought after tourist destination and a must visit place. It is a perfect destination for tourism, holidays, honeymoon, art, culture, tradition, health care, yoga, ayurveda and meditation. The timeless beauty of the palm fringed beaches of Kovalam and Varkala, the majesty of the undulating hills of Munnar and Vagamon and the Western Ghats, the serenity of the pristine backwaters of Kumarakom and Kuttanad and the enchanting woods and forests of Thekkady and Silent Valley will have you bowled over. That such a small terrain can hold diverse geographical features and cultures is a wonder in itself.

Hi Everybody,I'm planing to build a 55-57 Chevy Truck with a Big Block, maybe with Blower.Now I've read a lot about those mixed Frames with Camaro Front Clip......I'm not sure if I should go this way too? Buy or Build a truck with front Clip OR buy a totaly new Frame (Art Morrison, TCI....) Is it worth to buy a new Frame? Also if i sell such a truck?Has anybody build a 55-57 Chevy Truck with Big Block? Any experience?Does a Big Block AND a Blower under the Hood?GreetsChris
does anyone else miss when chevytrucks were made of all steel. sure they didnt get the mileage, but man they were tough. i like the new ones, but replacing all this plastic clip nonsense gets old. i don't like being able to break the spare parts
You probably wouldn't get much if you plan to build it and flip it. A project you're talking about will likely run into the 10s of thousands unless you have a major hook up on parts. There's also not many people that are going to Buy a truck and put a blower on it and enjoy your new ride!

Valdosta - Police have evacuated a dorm building at Valdosta State University for the second time in less than a week.
They say the threat was placed to an administrative office just after 3:00 Thursday afternoon.
Valdosta State University Police, the Valdosta Fire Department and bomb dogs from the Moody Air Force K-9 unit are currently doing a room-to-room search of Centennial Hall.
They hope to have it cleared in an hour.
This is the fourth bomb threat this academic year...the latest to the same dorm building early Saturday morning.
Police are offering a five thousand dollar reward for any information leading to the arrest of a caller.

Team Ratings
Wigan Athletic
Ali Al Habsi
Nothing he could do about the first goal, but a monumental cock-up for the second was as embarrassing a goalkeeping mistake as you will see this season.
M. Figueroa
Adam Le Fondre caused him problems all afternoon.
Captain for the day but was consistently ruffled by the power of Jason Roberts.
R. Stam
Not as effective as Boyce usually is down the right hand side, but stuck to his task against McAnuff.
E. Boyce
Reverted to centre-half in Gary Caldwell's absence and it showed.
J. McCarthy
Struggled to really make an impact on the game, but always sound in possession.
D. Jones
Jones looked rusty, but put himself about against Leigertwood.
Jordi Gómez
Not the home crowd's favourite, Gomez sometimes gets a raw deal, but silenced his critics with a second-half hat-trick. A case of being in the right place at the right time.
J. Beausejour
Always a reliable source of quality deliveries from the left, he crossed for a number of good opportunities, including the second goal and another that was disallowed.
A. Koné
Missed glorious first-half chances, but his presence is enough to unsettle even the best defenders. Pulled Gorkss away from his central berth to allow Gomez to roam frequently.
S. Maloney
The link between midfield and attack, Maloney always has the spark, but failed to shine before being taken off at half-time.
A. Federici
Made a number of terrific saves and still came away having conceded three times - it was that type of game.
K. Gorkšs
Arouna Kone is a tricky customer, but Gorkss stood tall for the most part.
N. Shorey
Wicked ball in for the opening goal and did most of his work going forward given Ronnie Stam's inability to push on from wing back.
C. Gunter
Did not have to exert himself physically against Jean Beausejour, but needed to be alert to the wing-back's ability from wide areas. Might have ventured forward more.
S. Morrison
Scored the opener, quick on the ground against Kone and won the majority of aerial duals.
J. McAnuff
A weaving winger rather than one who possesses blistering pace, McAnuff's positional sense gave Reading a solid look across midfield.
H. Robson-Kanu
Was missing for the majority of the game, but showed glimpses of his quality.
J. Tabb
No-nonsense, no frills. Tabb, black booted, is a midfielder from a bygone era and a key cog in the well-drilled machine.
M. Leigertwood
Forever reliable, Leigertwood got in amongst the Wigan midfield and did not let them settle.
A. Le Fondre
Missed a number of presentable chances and will feel that he should have bagged all three points for Reading.
J. Roberts
Excellent at holding up the ball and allowing others to impose quality in and around the box. Got a standing ovation from the home crowd when subbed.

A Georgia woman was among 14 people rescued after the replica ship they were aboard started taking on water off the North Carolina coast.
Mary Ellen Sprague told The Associated Press on Monday that her daughter Anna Sprague had been plucked from a life raft and taken to safety on the North Carolina coast. She was about to leave her home to meet her daughter there when reached by the AP.
Sprague says her 20-year-old daughter was most likely the youngest crew member on board. She says she spoke to her daughter twice Monday. Anna Sprague was safe, but Mary Ellen Sprague says the young woman was very upset because the captain and another crew member were still missing at sea.
Mary Ellen Sprague is a member of the Savannah City Council.

sleekbird answered the Question: Any one a stay home mom trying to lose weight?
You need to eat! When you stop eating, your body hangs on to weight. If you DO lose, you'll start losing muscle. Go to MyFitnessPal and do some research. There are some great forum posts about how to set the correct calories for your current weight and specific goals.
sleekbird answered the Question: Inferno or TBT??
I switch back and forth between the two - they are both good. You can do the jumps from inferno without the box and still get a great workout. Just bring your knees high.
sleekbird commented on Anthony's answer to How are the calories burned calculated for the workouts?:
So when we enter our weight, that isn't factored in at all to the calorie expenditure?
sleekbird commented on sleekbird's answer to Help! I'm craving chocolate!:
Yummmm... I love really dark chocolate!
sleekbird answered the Question: I think I gained 1 pound doing Ignite. Why didn't my weight go down?
Fat percentage is way more important than weight unless you need to lose massive amounts. For instance, if you are trying to lose 50 lbs., pay attention to the scale. If you are trying to lose 5 or 10, start looking for changes in the mirror, measurements, and clothes sizes. Muscle weights more than fat. So, one person could weight 150 but be fatty whereas another person of the same height could weigh 155 but have a lower body fat %.
sleekbird answered the Question: Does having a scale help with motivation/fitness goals?
I think it depends on you. Some people like to use measurements; some like scales; and others like the mirror and/or the way clothes fit. For me, I like the scale and tracking calories and exercise on MyFitnessPal. I think it all depends on what motivates YOU!
sleekbird answered the Question: How Can I Speed Up My Weight Loss?
Congratulations for getting healthier. Absolutely no laughter here - I've got nothing but happiness and encouragement for you! I don't know what the DailyBurn app is like, but MyFitnessPal is great for counting calories. Some sort of food and exercise counter is a must!
sleekbird commented on Lilyanne's answer to How Can I Speed Up My Weight Loss?:
Good luck - I think it is so amazing that you are both working so hard to get fit. I know your friends and family will appreciate it. My cousin's husband died of a heart attack at the young age of 50 because he kept gaining weight and was well over 350. He left my cousin (his wife of 19 years) and 2 pre-teen children. We all miss him so much!
sleekbird commented on deannav18's answer to What do you guys think of the new workouts?:
I really appreciate that you combine great trainers in each category. There are other sites out there that aren't very well rounded.
sleekbird commented on Anthony's answer to Where can I get the plyo boxes used in the Inferno workouts?:
That is awesome!
sleekbird answered the Question: Help! I'm craving chocolate!
Here is my lines of defense:
1) Drink a big glass of water
2) If 1 doesn't work, then I eat a Chobani yogurt or eat some Xylitol mints (it's a natural sugar with the added benefit of preventing cavities)
3) if 1 or 2 don't work, then I buy a really dark chocolate (pretty good for you) and eat a couple of squares.
sleekbird answered the Question: What are the best veggies for fiber?
These are some of my favs: Kale, Broccoli, Red peppers, spinach, squash, red garnet yams, romaine lettuce, chard, Brussels spouts, peas, green beans, carrots. These are all really high in nutrients and quite filling.
sleekbird answered the Question: What tips do you have to manage high stress levels?
People used to take cigarette breaks every hour or two. Can you take the same concept (obviously w/o the cigarettes) and go outside each hour or so for 5 minutes to walk and take deep breaths?
sleekbird answered the Question: Is soy really that bad for you?
I don't eat much Soy, but I do put a bit of Organic Soymilk in my tea.

News: Young Jeezy Co-Signs Jay-Z, Russell Simmons Pro-Protest Stand, "Everybody Should Take Their A** Down There"
Saturday, Nov 19, 2011 10:26AM
Rap mogul Russell Simmons can add another hip-hop star to his list of pro-Occupy Wall Street supporters as Atlanta's Young Jeezy now says he stands behind the publicized movement.
In Jeezy's eyes, there is strength in numbers and protest is a must to get voices heard.
"I would riot," Jeezy said, cosigning the 99% (as the protestors refer to themselves), "because we gotta get the money out of Washington. This is real. When you got middle class people taking a stance--because we always took a stance by the way, we always stood in the middle of our projects, our ghetto, and took our stance and our stance was hustling, robbing, what have you, to suvive. So now they don't have those same options, so they gotta go march...So if it's gonna take some protests--motherf*ckers have protested about less, unions and busses and sh*t--so now is the time. I think everybody should take their a** down there. That's what I say." (XXL Mag)
This week, Russell Simmons addressed Jay-Z's new line of "Occupy All Streets" t-shirts.
"What's wrong with selling goodness? There's nothing wrong with it. It's not the most preferred. In yogi scripture, at least, the highest form of giving is giving without expectation. Selfless. But a lot of people need incentive. You should sell things you're happy about. You should sell products that you're inspired by, that promote lasting and stable well-being. Give the world something or sell the world something that you're proud of. Jay-Z didn't make a T-shirt [that said] "F--- the Bums on the Street." He wrote a T-shirt "Occupy All Streets" - I'm happy, it furthers the movement, it inspires the movement. Listen, I'm going to get every corporation that wants to support us to get branding as part of the process. No one's against business. We're against business having too much control over our government." (Billboard Biz)
New York rapper Immortal Technique has also shared his input on the protests this week.
"[People] would almost surrender their freedom to more efficient government - similar to what Russia will have to deal with when they decide whether Putin is going to come back into power," Immortal Technique said. "There are a lot of people who will think: 'Oh, functionality over the visage of democracy' that exists there. So I think the entire world is really dealing with that now: will it be oligarchy, autocratic regime that's more functional because it's backed by corporations, or more of a democratic regime that could be hit-and-miss on certain things, may take a hit on jobs -- When [Obama] came in, he came in with the idea that he was going to reform things. And when that was not met, when the criteria that he set up himself for what the reform would entail was not completed - I don't think that created the Occupy Wall Street movement, but it definitely added fuel to the fire." (RT)
G-Unit's 50 Cent recently released a statement encouraging protestors to stay strong.
"I don't want to do business with these f*ckers anymore. Do you? if a company isn't giving back, stop buying from them. Buy a pair of shoes from TOMS (who give another pair to someone in need), look for companies that aren't paying lip service to community / charity we are more powerful than the big business and politiciansrealize......we have the power to stop buying their products, banking with them. your dollar, that you worked hard for, does have power. together we can say - WAKE UP A-HOLES! The game is over. 50 cent - want to shout out to Occupy Wall Street groups around the world. You are waking up the world, including me. Please keep up the peaceful protest, you are making a difference" (Facebook) [sic]

T-Pain - Best Love Song
Artist: T-Pain
Featuring: Chris Brown
Producer: Young Fyre
Album: RevolveR
Avg Rating: 3.8 ( 61 total votes )
Valentine's Day may be over, but T-Pain's still spreading love the best way he can: through the same whimsical AutoTune stylings that have become his signature. Thankfully, the Nappy Boy CEO took a break from buying ostentatious jewelry and getting Facebook tattoos to link up with Chris Brown for his new single Best Love Song. Producer Young Fyre gives the song a modern power ballad feel with strong guitar riffs underscored by tender piano melodies, quick strings and a healthy dose of hi-hat/hand clap action. We know how T-Pain likes to do things big, so this sound suits him well; just imagine lots of pyrotechnics accompanying this song and I think even Brett Michaels would be proud. Vocally, Chris Brown delivers energetic vocals while T-Pain waxes poetic about showing that special someone the love they deserve. Quite a step forward from professing love to a stripper, but who's keeping score? No word yet on the release date of RevolveR but this single is sure to capture people's attention and hopefully build some anticipation in the meantime.

An army can be compared to a craftsmen. Both produce for gain. A craftsmen produces a product, a good, for monetary gain. An army, however, produces corpses for resource acquisition. Be it on the battlefield or in the medical tent with the severely wounded being put out of their misery, the fillers of graves are being produced.
Any mind of the modern age has thought about putting those bodies to work. Necromancy has long been socially inacceptable. Besides, no one enjoys seeing a former comrade, a former brother-in-arms, walking around fighting and killing with a spear hole in his gut and a couple arrows hanging from the arms. And the only other way was to throw the dead body into a catapult and throw it at the enemy, in the hopes of giving them plague.

I am taking another online class – a weekly phone conference with Eric Klein who writes on spirital matters and coaches meditation through Wisdom Heart.
Its purpose is Healing Family Karma.
The first session began with a question – "Is the universe friendly?"
How do you answer this?
How does your mother answer this?
How does your father answer this?
Guess what. There is no father. There is no mother. These are only energy patterns you have conjured to learn from.
I get really tired of being responsible for all the trouble in my life. Can't I lay it off on someone?
(Half joking.)
What one word have you come here to express?
The first word was LOVE but I eschewed that. It's too much work. BEAUTY. That's the ticket. My tricky little ego second guesses me from the outset. Then floods me with words.
Love. Beauty. Truth.
I want to resist this. Yet, think about it.
If you could boil all your problems down to one, two or three words, three energy patterns, how would it change?
How can I bring love to this?
How is it beautiful?
What is true for me in this?
I've ruminated a lot on the idea that I am here to express beauty. Not to be beautiful per se. But to create and/or perceive the beauty in everyone and everything.
Is this grandiose?
Is this even possible?
There's so much ugliness. The Casey Anthonys of the world. The Michael Vicks. The Rush Limbaughs. The sociopaths. The narcissists. The evil. The selfish. The pompous and vain.
How does one look at their fruit and perceive beauty? What good can possibly come of their atrocities?
It makes sense to me in many ways.
My happiest times are creating home and garden, transforming a shabby vintage apartment in Chicago to something chic and beautiful; transforming a nothing little house in Galena into a cozy cottage; planting a perennial garden on a prairie that has continued to bloom and beautify the neighborhood long after I've moved on.
I do have a gift for it.
But I suspect my first thought – love – is more like it simply because beauty comes easy when it's born out of love. And let's face it, Donegan Street was homely when I moved in, its sole attraction a yard full of shasta daisies which developed a blight and died. That's when I took it on. That's when I dug in. That's when I began to reshape the world to match a mental image and in the process was reshaped.
So I'll play with this thought, this theme.
Where in my current life can I bring this? How in my current life can I bring this? It this an activity or an attitude or both? If this is my purpose, how do I animate it? And if it is not my purpose, then what is?
I'm really ready for a breakthrough on this.

TRENTON, N.J. (AP) — Motorists are seeing higher prices at the pumps in New Jersey.
AAA Mid-Atlantic says the average price of regular gasoline in New Jersey on Friday was $3.36, up 3 cents from last week. That's also higher than the price from a year ago, when motorists were paying $3.21.
Meanwhile, the national average price rose by 2 cents to $3.30. That's just a penny more than the national average from a year ago, when motorists were paying $3.29.
Analysts say it's possible prices could rise following the recent resolution of the so-called "fiscal cliff." But even if that happens, prices would likely soon retreat due to weak demand and increased domestic crude oil production

Gwinnett 4, Louisville 0
- W. Timmons 1-3 RBI, BB, .262 Avg
- M. Jones 2-4 2B, RBI, .240 Avg
- T. Redmond 9IP 0H 0R 2BB 3K 4.79 ERA
Todd Redmond might have been the last guy in the Braves organization I expected to throw a no hitter. Well maybe not the last guy but he just isn't one of the people you think of when you are talking about potential no hit bids. But damn if he didn't prove me wrong tonight! He worked efficiently throwing just 105 pitches with 66 for strikes. He gave up nearly twice as many flyballs as grounders but he still faced just one batter over the minimum. Overall a fantastic game for him and something to build on going forward.
Wilmington 4, Myrtle Beach 3
- C. Miles 2-3 2B, CS(7), .253 Avg
- B. Oberholtzer 7IP 8H 3R 0BB 3K 5.67 ERA
After being positively terrible for his first 4 starts for the Pelicans Brett Oberholtzer appears to have figured something out. Interestingly his peripherals are pretty similar to what he posted in the Sally League but with about twice as many hits allowed. Could be he was just getting hit unlucky there for a hot minute and now things are normalizing.I still don't understand why Chris Masters didn't get the call here as well.
Mississippi 8, Mobile 6
- A. Richardson 2-4 RBI, K, .556 Avg
- W. Cabrera 3-5 2B, 2 RBI, K, .331 Avg
- E. Duncan 2-2 2B, RBI, .314 Avg
Mississippi scored all 8 of their runs in the 8th and 9th innings to overcome a 5 runs deficit for the win. As you can see Willie Cabrera pushed his Avg up to .331 on the season and doesn't appear to be cooling off any time soon. He is among the league leaders in Avg and doubles so far this season. I wouldn't mind a LF who hits a bunch of doubles and knows how to take a walk. Also for those who weren't aware Antoan Richardson up there is another journeyman minor leaguer that the Braves have picked up to spark their punchless minor league offenses.
Savannah 0, Rome 4
- K. Rose 2-3 2 SB(14), .280 Avg
- C. Harrilchak 3-4 K, SB(10), CS(8), .279 Avg
- A. Vizcaino 8IP 4H 0R 0BB 7K 2.73 ERA
Braves pitching prospects put up some fantastic performances tonight. In his last 3 games Arodys Vizcaino put up this line: 23.2IP 12H 0ER 0BB 21K. That is pretty fantastic. The only thing I can really nitpick at is flyball rate which has been escalating recently (3 GB vs 13 FB tonight). Other than that he has easily filled the shoes of recently promoted Julio Teheran.

Billy Taylor has been fired after six seasons at Ball State's men's basketball coach.
The school announced the firing Thursday evening. Taylor led the Cardinals to an 84-99 record, including a 44-52 record in Mid-American Conference play, during his tenure. Ball State finished 15-15 overall and 8-8 in the MAC this year. They were eliminated from the conference tournament by Buffalo on Wednesday.
"This was a difficult decision, primarily because Billy was a tremendous representative of our athletics department and university," Ball State athletics director Bill Scholl said. "Billy is a great man. Under his guidance our student-athletes conducted themselves properly and our most recent APR score was our highest rating since 2004-05. We thank him for leaving the program better than when he inherited it and we wish him well in the future."
Scholl said the search for Taylor's replacement will begin immediately.
"The expectations of our men's basketball program include being competitive in the MAC and challenging for conference championships. Our primary concerns are the well-being of our student-athletes and what is best for the future of Ball State basketball," Scholl said.

Archbishop Elias Chacour
Archbishop Elias Chacour, a world-renowned priest, peacemaker, and author will speak
on Thursday, April 11, 2013 at 7:00 p.m. at Duncan Memorial United Methodist
Church. The event is free and open to the public; a freewill offering
will be received to support Mar Elias Educational Institutions (MEEI) in Ibillin,
in the Galilee region of the State of Israel. The church is located on the campus
of Randolph-Macon College at 201 Henry Street.
Elias Chacour was born in 1939 in the village of Biram in the Upper Galilee in Palestine,
to a Palestinian Christian family. At the age of eight, he experienced the tragedy
of his people when he was evicted, along with his whole village, in the Jewish War
of Independence. He became a refugee in his own country.
In 1965, he was ordained a Melkite Catholic priest and was assigned to a parish
in the small village of Ibillin in Galilee. While serving as priest and pastor,
he quickly saw the need for reconciliation and education in the face of poverty
and conflict. He founded a Kindergarten in 1970, followed by a library, community
center, elementary school, and high school. Three thousand students from age three
to eighteen now attend these highly rated schools, coming from a 50-mile radius
around Ibillin. The students and faculty include Muslims, Christians, Jews, and
Druze. More than 50% of the students are girls. They come to MEEI for a superior
education and to demonstrate the possibility of living together with mutual respect
in the midst of great diversity.
Archbishop Chacour was the first Israeli Arab to graduate from the Hebrew University
in Jerusalem, where he received a Master's Degree in Bible and Talmudic Studies
in 1968. In 1971, he earned a Ph.D. in Ecumenical Theology at the University of
Archbishop Chacour is the author of Blood Brothers and We Belong to the Land,
which tells stories of his life and ministry in Ibillin. He has received numerous
honorary degrees and awards, including the World Methodist Peace Award, the Marcel
Rudloff Peace and Tolerance Award at Strasbourg, and the Niwano Peace Prize, Tokyo-Japan.
In 2006, he was consecrated as Archbishop of the Melkite Catholic Church of Haifa,
Akko, Nazareth and all Galilee. As archbishop, he continues to pursue his passions
of caring for the oppressed and working for reconciliation among peoples, especially
the diverse and historically complex interests of the people of the Middle East.
This event is co-sponsored by the Randolph-Macon College Campus Ministries Council
and the Office of the Chaplain. For more information about Archbishop Chacour's
visit to Ashland, contact the church office at (804) 798-7224 or

Jaguars release Aaron Kampman to cut costs.
Doesn't really pertain to us... but since he is a former Jag and we now have his old coach in JDR, he could be a possible signing to help fortify the pass rush... since right now we're looking primarily at Dumervil and Ayers (and Von on obvious passing downs). What do the rest of you think? Is it possible? Or are we going to stick with who we got?

Math is not my strong suit –that's why I'm a journalist – but even I can figure out the odds of one high school having three baseball players in the Major Leagues at the same time are pretty long.
Most high schools have to dig deep into their alumni rolls to find one athlete who has gone on to play at the professional level.
However, at one point in mid-April there were three former Temecula Chaparral Pumas playing major league baseball, one of them an established hitter and two with their stars of the rise.
Joining first baseman Allen Craig – Class of 2002 – of the St Louis Cardinals and catcher Rob Brantly – Class of 2008 – of the Miami Marlins was Shane Peterson – Class of 2005 – who had a cup of coffee with the Oakland Athletics.
I spoke with their coaches and all three of those kids worked harder than anyone else," said Mike Rowan, the long-time athletic director at Chaparral. "They were always the last one to leave the field."
Peterson, a first baseman/outfielder, was called up to the big leagues as a replacement for first baseman Brandon Moss, whose wife was about to have a baby.
Knowing his stay would likely be short – both he and Baby Moss made their debut on Tuesday, April 16 – Peterson made the most of his opportunity. In two games he got his first hit, a single off of Houston's Xavier Cedeno, scored his first run and even knocked in a run with a bases loaded walk.
He also saved couple of runs with a stellar defensive play at first base.
Two days later Peterson was back at Triple-A Sacramento, but he apparently impressed the A's brass enough to be considered for another call-up sometime this season.
Craig, who recently signed a 5-year, $31 million contract, is hitting around .260 with 18 RBI's in the early going with the Cardinals. He is in his fourth season with the Redbirds.
Brantly, a rookie starting catcher for the floundering Marlins, got off to a slow start but has been swinging the bat better lately.
The other Temecula player in the big leagues, Reed Johnson — Temecula Valley High Class of 1995 — is with the Atlanta Braves, his fourth team in an 11 year career.
There have been a few other local young men to play in the big leagues over the past decades.
One who comes to mind is Rich Hunter, a fire-balling right-hander who lost only one game in his prep career and pitched Linfield Christian of Temecula to two CIF championships.
Hunter was drafted by the Philadelphia Phillies in 1993 and three years later he was in the big leagues. On an August night in 1996 a large crowd from Temecula drove to San Diego to watch Hunter pitcher, and beat, the Padres.
It was a big deal in what was, back then, still a pretty small town. Hunter lasted just one season in the big leagues.
These days there is plenty of good baseball being played in our region.
Three of the Top 10 teams in the Press-Enterprise HSGame Time weekly poll of Inland area high schools play on local diamonds.
There have been other ballplayers from our region who've made it to the big leagues, if only briefly, but now with the talent playing on local high fields Southwest Riverside County is becoming a hotbed of baseball prospects.
