Sarries target 60,000 for Quins rematch

Saracens chief executive Edward Griffiths is hoping the club can attract a crowd of over 60,000 for their rematch with Harlequins at Wembley next March.
Griffiths' comments come in response to Harlequins setting a new world record for a regular-season club fixture with an official attendance of 82,000 at Twickenham for Tuesday's Aviva Premiership game against their London rivals. Saracens have played seven matches at Wembley in the last two seasons, and are looking to build on their previous best figure of 47,000.
"We would be disappointed with anything less than 60,000 and I am sure that is achievable," Griffiths told the Telegraph.
"It maybe harder to draw a London rugby audience to Wembley than it is draw them to Twickenham where they are more accustomed to going. But Wembley is a more modern, comfortable and easily accessible stadium.
Defending Premiership champions Saracens won Tuesday's clash 19-11, ending Harlequins' unbeaten start to the season. Griffiths says the two rival clubs deserve the praise being heaped on them in the wake of the match, but singled out Harlequins for special congratulations after "Big Game 4".
"You have to congratulate Harlequins on what they have achieved. The Big Game concept is spectacular for the image of the game. Our match against Harlequins at Twickenham was watched by more supporters than will watch any Premier League match this season.
"If Saracens and Harlequins go on to contest the Premiership final, it is conceivable that in three matches they will be watched by over a quarter of a million people, which would be amazing," said Griffiths.

Backstage: The State of the Buyers' Guide
The last couple of weeks have been very busy behind the scenes at iLounge, for reasons you probably understand if you've been following the Site News on the main page. Roughly 125% of my energy is going into the iLounge Buyers' Guide 2004, and it is in seriously awesome shape right now. I wouldn't say that if it wasn't, and I haven't wanted to say much on the subject until I could really see it for myself in tangible, concrete form.
At the moment, something over 60 pages of new iLounge material has been finished and/or laid out, with more to come over the next several days before we lock down the Guide editorially. I'd promise a specific number, but I want to leave it flexible given a few concerns we're continuing to manage on this end. Suffice to say that the hard parts are officially behind us at this stage, and we feel confident that we'll be delivering something excellent to you all for the holidays. We've been considering when and how to distribute an early sample to everyone, but that hasn't been decided yet. If you guys have questions or requests, make them known soon and I'll try my best to address them before we lock it down.

A Happy Nurse is a Retained Nurse
Are you a health leader?

Qualify for a free subscription to HealthLeaders magazine.
In anticipation of this shortage, hospital leaders need to develop strategies to retain the nurses they have—not an easy task in such a high-stress profession. In fact, a new survey of 1,700 nurses by Nursefinders, Inc., an Arlington, TX-based medical staffing firm, found that 35 percent are considering leaving the profession—and nearly half of these nurses cited job stress as the reason.
"There are greater expectations on the nursing profession than there were 10 years ago," says Ed Russell, PhD, RN, chief nursing officer of Uvalde (TX) Memorial Hospital, a 66-licensed-bed rural facility about 90 miles west of San Antonio. "You have to put the resources together to get and retain nurses and create the environment that supports them."
Last fall, the Texas Nurses Association awarded Uvalde with the Nurse-Friendly designation, which is based on 12 criteria the association deems essential for developing an ideal nursing environment. Uvalde reduced RN turnover from 14 percent in 2006 to 4 percent today.
Here are Uvalde's top three tips for helping your nurses de-stress:
1. Give nurses a voice
Uvalde developed a formal committee called the Staff Nurse Leadership Council, which investigates and designs methods of enhancing care at the bedside and improving the working conditions and professional processes for nurses. Nurses volunteer to sit on the council, which represents all of the facility's clinical nursing areas.
2. Give them more than a salary
Russell says his nurses' salaries are competitive with other institutions in the region, but that Uvalde also offers continual retention bonuses based on the total hours of a nurse's employment. In addition, he stresses the importance of expressing gratitude through awards and recognition programs.
3. Mind the workload
Uvalde has a strict policy on nurse staffing—no pulling double shifts and no mandatory overtime. The hospital plans for an influx of patients during the winter months by offering nurses additional pay to work extra hours. This incentive program works, says Russell. "We use very little contract nurses from outside the hospital during high-volume periods because our nurses volunteer to work," he says.

|Horry makes his finals mark this time with defense
|Written by Admin
|Sunday, 10 June 2007 22:51
Robert Horry made his mark on another NBA finals game Sunday, this time with his defense. The veteran Spurs reserve grabbed nine rebounds and blocked a career playoff-best five shots, leading San Antonio to a 103-92 victory over the Cleveland Cavaliers and a 2-0 advantage in the series.
``Rob for some reason failed to tell us that he can play defense,'' Spurs star Tim Duncan said. ``It's playoff Rob and he'll show up and do something special and that's what he did tonight.''
Horry usually does it with his outside shooting. By hitting a number of clutch 3-pointers, he earned the nickname ``Big Shot Rob'' - along with six NBA titles.
The Spurs didn't need his offense Sunday, with their top three players all scoring at least 23 points. So Horry instead reminded people that's he not bad on the other side of the court, even at 36.
``Oh man, he was super,'' fellow reserve Francisco Elson said. ``Who says old people can't play? He was great, I take my hat off to him. He came off the bench and brought a lot of energy to the game. He was probably the main reason we got up so big.''
Sparked by Horry's defensive play, the Spurs held the Cavs to 41 percent shooting and beat one of the league's best rebounding teams 46-42 on the boards. And after spending the early part of his career with Hakeem Olajuwon, the NBA's career leader in blocks, Horry did a pretty good impression of him Sunday.
``That has been the only way I've been able to block shots in my career,'' Horry said. ``You just come from the weak side and read it and hopefully you block it. If you miss it, you're going to be screwed because they're going to get the rebound, but I was able to get a couple of them tonight.''
SNOW SPEAKS: Eric Snow wasn't happy with what he saw from his teammates in the first half of Game 2.
The veteran point guard, the only Cleveland player with previous NBA finals experience, didn't think the Cavs were playing as hard as they needed to against a team as good as the Spurs.
``I didn't think we were competing. I thought they were outworking us,'' Snow said. ``If we match their work ethic, we give ourselves a chance, because I think at the end of the day we've got just as much talent.
``When they made a run on us, we kind of felt sorry for ourselves.''
Cleveland trailed 58-33 at halftime, one of the largest deficits ever in an NBA finals game. The Spurs held on for a 103-92 victory and a 2-0 lead in the series.
Though his playing time has been cut, Snow is a respected veteran leader in the Cavs' locker room. And if he felt he needed to speak his mind, his teammates wouldn't argue.
``It's no secret you come into the locker room down like we were with the way they were playing, the things they were doing, doing what they wanted to do, it's no secret a guy will step up and state the obvious,'' starting point guard Larry Hughes said.
CHARGE!: San Antonio Spurs coach Gregg Popovich is used to being in charge.
On Sunday night, he took a charge.
In the fourth quarter of the Spurs' 103-92 Game 2 win over the Cleveland Cavaliers on Sunday night, Robert Horry had so much momentum as he tried to save a ball on the sideline that he ran out of bounds, smack dab into his boss.
Both of them went down hard against the scorer's table.
``That's all I could do,'' Popovich said, remembering his athletic days at the Air Force Academy. ``That's the best thing I could do as, a player is fall down.''
``I was so scared,'' said Horry, who had five blocks, five points and nine rebounds in 26 minutes Sunday. ``I was like, 'Please don't be hurt, please don't be hurt.' But he jumped up fast, that shows you how tough he is.''
Horry, whom Popovich called ``our star'' on Sunday, has been here before.
In Game 4 of the Western Conference semifinals against the Phoenix Suns, Horry checked Steve Nash, who tumbled into the scorer's table. Horry's move started a mini-scrum on the court and resulted in a two-game suspension for Horry and a one-game suspension for the Suns' Amare Stoudemire and Boris Diaw, who left the bench area but weren't involved.
Next time, Horry has some advice for his coach.
``Get out of my way,'' he joked. ``Just jump up, jump up on the scorer's table, a la Steve Nash.''
RUSSELL ON RED: As good as Red Auerbach was as a coach, it wasn't even his best skill.
According to Bill Russell, his former coach was one mean card player.
``We'd play a game someplace and I'd see Red and he'd see me and say, 'Do you want to play gin tonight?' And we would stay up to three or four o'clock in the morning playing gin,'' Russell said. ``I always lost. He was probably a better gin player than he was a coach and that is saying something.''
That is one of the memories Russell shares of Auerbach in ``Red and Me,'' airing Tuesday night on NBA TV.
Russell hasn't spoken to the media about Auerbach since the former Boston Celtics coach and general manager died last October. Russell details a close relationship between player and coach during the show, which includes some rarely seen photos and videos along with Russell's first-person accounts.
``We live and die, but while we are here there are things that we accomplish and to me the greatest thing that you can accomplish is friendship,'' Russell said. ``For me, personally, our friendship will last through eternity.''
Russell also discusses some of Auerbach's coaching theories, including why he never told his players what time they had to go to bed.
``Red used to never have a curfew,'' Russell said. ``I asked him why he never had a curfew. He said, 'Because I have to be there to enforce it.'''

Aesthetes and anthropologists can devour an eyeful of wide-ranging cultural artifacts and extensive fine art collections at the Mabee-Gerrer. The permanent collection of Egyptian art claims Oklahoma's only mummy that's not living, and the antiquities section features sculpture and pottery from ancient Greece, China, and Mesopotamia. Visitors can also set their sights on a broad sweep of American works, including timeworn Aztec textiles housed in the Arts of Ancient America collection, present-day paintings by Oklahoma artists in the Contemporary Art section, and the unpainted canvases hanging in the museum's 23rd-century collection.
Located near the Oklahoma–Arkansas border, Lake Wister State Park is a gateway to the Ouachita National Forest, an area known for its hiking trails and mountain scenery. There are five camping areas throughout the park, each filled with a mix of cabins and sites for tents and RVs. Although the area is surrounded by wilderness, you won't have to rough it—each site has access to amenities such as comfort stations with showers, full kitchens, and picnic shelters.
Naturally, most visit the state park for its many outdoor pursuits. There's 115 miles of shoreline, which include a swimming beach and lighted boat ramp. The area is especially popular in the summer, when Lake Wister bustles with water-skiers and anglers out for the water's catfish and sand bass. Meanwhile, the cabins have direct access to nature trails that show off the resident white-tailed deer, rabbits, and bald eagles. You can also learn more about the local wildlife by checking out the exhibits at the park's nature center. When the kids aren't out exploring nature, they can take enjoy the onsite water spray park and miniature golf course.
The word "extreme" is often overused by sodas, tortilla chips, and Vanilla Ices, but it definitely applies to the rough-and-tumble Grave Digger Race. In a merciless 5-mile course, competitors huff, puff, and soil their skivvies as they charge across intense, soggy terrain in their quest for victory. Along the muddy path, racers must hurdle a slew of 23 daunting obstacles, including walls made of tires, walls made of rope, and walls made of wall. Beer, food, showers, and contestant medals help alleviate postrace fatigue, and proceeds from the race benefit the Oklahoma chapter of Bikers Against Child Abuse.
Practical Shooting's live-fire training takes place at an outdoor range, which accommodates handgun, rifle, shotgun, and long-range training.
Customers usually bring their own firearms, though instructors supply equipment during certain classes, including the Youth Firearms Safety Class and the Home Defense Course that uses Simunition, a non-lethal training ammunition.
A member of the Pottawatomie County Sheriff's Department possessing weapons certifications including a federal firearms license, Wes Elliott continues more than a decade of teaching firearm operation to military personnel, law-enforcement officials, and everyday citizens. On Practical Shooting's outdoor range, Elliott and his team lead handgun and rifle courses, covering a catalog of weaponry that spans pistols to shotguns. Beyond shooting instruction, Elliott teaches executive-protection tactics, and his facility also hosts Simunition matches.
Guiding golfers along a lush chlorophyll carpet that stretches for 6,524 yards from the back tees, the course at Choctaw Creek challenges all oncomers with tight, tree-lined fairways and treacherous approaches into elevated greens. The course's titular creek snakes its way through seven holes of the front nine, demanding cautious attention from golfers wary of the unplayable lies and amphibious gophers likely hiding in its murky depths. The back nine demands precise bifurcation of narrow fairways, lest drives stray into the fairway-lining foliage or greenside bunkers. After golfers work up ravenous appetites over 18 holes, the Creekside Grill stands at the ready to refuel them with sandwiches and house-made soups.
Course at a Glance:
Par 71
6,524 yards from the back tees
Course rating of 71.2 from the farthest tees
Slope rating of 118 from the farthest tees
Four tee options
Paintball Club of Choctaw's eight playing fields accommodate all skill levels, including tikes as young as 8. Players select from various gaming styles such as capture the flag, fast-paced air ball, and themed objectives of protecting the team fort. Abiding by the club's field rules, players conquer obstacles such as picket-fence forts, wooden teepees, giant arrowheads, and cardboard trees.
Paintball Club of Choctaw has recently expended their simulated-warfare offerings, as they also host games of outdoor laser tag on two fields. During downtime, combatants can grab a bite to eat at the snack stand or simply take a breather at one of the nearby tables, where they can rethink strategy and consult dog-eared copies of Sun Tzu's The Art of War.

This guest post is by Isaiah Hoogendyk, Biblical Languages Engineer at Faithlife Corporation.
The Salve, Regina, or "Hail, Holy Queen!" is typically used as a concluding prayer to the five decades of the Rosary. Why do we do address the Blessed Virgin Mary this way? Let us first take a look back at the mysteries we have already written about.
If the Joyous Mysteries tell of the beginning of our salvation, the joy of knowing that Christ is coming to dwell among us and show the way to everlasting life; and the Sorrowful Mysteries tell of how He suffered for our sake and for our sin, in order that we may have life eternal; then the Glorious Mysteries tell of Christ's triumph and its promise for the Church, Christ's Body, victorious upon earth and in heaven.
The Glorious Mysteries begin with Christ's promised Resurrection from the dead and His glorious Ascension, which together look forward to what awaits those who fall asleep in God's grace. The third mystery, the Descent of the Holy Spirit, recalls the birth of the Church, and is a fulfillment of Christ's promise that the Paraclete, the Comforter, would be sent after He Himself went to be with the Father. The fourth mystery parallels the first mystery: Mary's Assumption into heaven proves Christ's promise for His faithful Church.
What, then, is the parallel to the second mystery and what is the triumphant end of this progression of gloriously fulfilled promises? It is what is celebrated on the Octave of the Assumption, a feast established in 1954 by Pope Pius XII in his encyclical Ad Caeli Reginam ("To the Queen of Heaven"): the Coronation of Mary, Queen of Heaven and Earth. If her Assumption marks the completion of her life on earth, then there must be something even greater awaiting her in the new creation. Indeed, it is the very same thing that awaits Christ's chosen and faithful servants. For in the end, we too will receive our crown. Not only are we God's handiwork and the pinnacle of His beautiful creation, but we are co-heirs with Christ (Rom. 8:17) who will reign with Him in His everlasting kingdom (2 Tim. 2:12).
We can look to Ad Caeli Reginam for excellent support of Mary's exalted status and title, wherein the Pope appeals to Holy Tradition and the Church Fathers:
So it is that St. Ephrem, burning with poetic inspiration, represents her as speaking in this way: "Let Heaven sustain me in its embrace, because I am honored above it. For heaven was not Thy mother, but Thou hast made it Thy throne. How much more honorable and venerable than the throne of a king is her mother." … St. Gregory Nazianzen calls Mary "the Mother of the King of the universe," and the "Virgin Mother who brought forth the King of the whole world," while Prudentius asserts that the Mother marvels "that she has brought forth God as man, and even as Supreme King." (Ad Caeli Reginam 10, 11)
Who is mother of the King of the Universe but a mother of royal lineage herself? Therefore we can rightly call her Queen. We can also look to Holy Scripture to find prophecy of Mary's role as Queen; namely, the final book of the New Testament, St. John's Apocalypse. In one of the readings used for Mass at the Solemnity of the Assumption, we read:
Then God's temple in heaven was opened, and the ark of his covenant was seen within his temple.
And a great portent appeared in heaven, a woman clothed with the sun, with the moon under her feet, and on her head a crown of twelve stars; she was with child and she cried out in her pangs of birth, in anguish for delivery.
And I heard a loud voice in heaven, saying, "Now the salvation and the power and the kingdom of our God and the authority of his Christ have come, for the accuser of our brethren has been thrown down, who accuses them day and night before our God." (Rev. 11:19-12:2, 10 RSV2CE)
Mary, who is called the First Apostle, the Mother of God, and the Star of the Sea, is also the Queen. But as queen, should we fear her as we would a great and powerful leader or monarch? In fact, we can take consolation, writes Alphonsus Liguori, Saint and Doctor of the Church. In his excellent devotional writing The Glories of Mary, he writes an extensive commentary on the Salve, Regina. In regards to Mary's queenship, he states that "she is a mild and merciful queen, desiring the good of us poor sinners. Hence the holy Church bids us salute her in this prayer, and name her the Queen of Mercy. The very name of queen signifies, as blessed Albertus Magnus remarks, compassion, and provision for the poor." (The Glories of Mary, 27-28)
In view of her compassion, let us fly to her aid and her comfort. In recognition of our being "poor, banished children of Eve," let us ask humbly that she turn her eyes of mercy toward us and show unto us her Son, Our Lord Jesus, when we meet in Heaven on that Glorious Day, after a fight well fought, and a race well run.

Whole grain bread isn't as exciting as all the holiday goodies on our Pinterest boards BUT the holidays are approaching and we've been cleaning up our diets significantly to prepare for the celebrations.
With winter in full swing, we tend to turn to heavier, heartier foods to get us through the cold months. As much as we'd all love to think that pumpkin pie, cinnamon rolls and coffee cake suffice for a healthy winter diet, our bodies need more!
Winter foods we can benefit from include whole grains! Grains like wheat, spelt, barley, rye and oats have incredible health benefits – especially when milled fresh! Milling your own grain sounds scary, but it's simple! If you have a high powdered blender like a Blendtec or Vitamix, you can whip up wheat flour or spelt flour in a pinch.
It is true that many people are shunning these hearty grains to achieve better health or healing through popular diets like the Paleo diet or Whole30. These elimination diets or cleanses are amazing and can have incredible impacts on the body, but it may not be right for everyone to abstain from these grains entirely. Fresh milled grains are amazing sources of vitamins, minerals, proteins and fiber.
Those who are not sensitive to gluten may find incorporating fresh milled bread on occasion can do a whole lot of good. This recipe includes a great collection of ingredients, including a secret source of protein from kidney beans. This bread recipe is also yeast free, so it can be eaten under yeast/sugar cleanses. It may seem strange, but whole grains can help digestion and energy and since this recipe has so much protein, it's great for vegans, vegetarians or dairy-free eaters. This fresh bread is hearty and homey and with some softened coconut butter – totally delicious!
Fresh Milled Whole Grain Bread (vegan, dairy-free & soy-free!)
Print Recipe
2 cups Spelt Berries
2 1/2 cups Wheat berries
1 cup Oats
1/2 cup Barley Berries
1/2 cup Kidney Beans
2 teaspoons Pink Salt
1 Tablespoon Baking Powder
1/2 cup Coconut Oil, warmed
3 1/2 cups Warm Water
3/4 cup Raw Honey or Maple Syrup
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Grease two 9 x 9 baking dishes with coconut oil.
In a high powdered blender, blend the spelt and wheat berries. Add to a large mixing bowl. Blend the oat, barley and beans until a fine flour. Mix all flours together in a large mixing bowl. Stir in salt and baking powder. Mix in the coconut oil, honey and water. Stir mixture with a spoon for about a few minutes. This bread is more of a batter – not a sticky dough!
Pour into the two pans. Bake for 40-50 minutes. Allow to cool for 5 minutes before slicing into. Store bread in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days, in the fridge for up to 5 days or the freezer for up to 4 weeks.
Serve with coconut oil, honey, butter, agave, nut butters, jams or with a hearty soup!

Travel Blogs from Vang Vieng
A brilliant journey to Vang Vieng
I had a really interesting night with John and his six year old, mixed race (USA and Laos) daughter Annie. John took Annie and I on his motorbike down to a restaurant by he Mekong River and invited me to a meal.
The few hours I have spent learning from John over the past few days has been a privilege and I hope we keep in touch. If travelling is meeting people and learning, then I ...
Vang Vieng to Kiew Ka
... a run up. We all cheered when he made it through. Big double-decker coaches also got through but had to fit chains to their wheels to prevent the skidding. It was back on the bus for an hour drive, forever upward, to our lunch stop, the highest restaurant in the country, 1,300m. Unfortunately the clouds covered the whole thing and we couldn't enjoy the view. But the food was great, although everyone by this time was feeling cold as we were still ...
Dodgy VIPs and drunken tubing
... the roof that caused me to bring an end to Helen's oblivious puppy playtime, much to her consternation! Indeed, when we went back the following morning for breakfast, we realised that the probable cause of rats was the fact that the restaurant was on stilts and we were sitting directly above a thick layer of the restaurants' rubbish which doubled as the puppies' home! Our walk home provided our final entertainment of the evening as we first met a young lad from Sheffield, ...
River Tubbing and Caving
... the current was medium fast to make it fun but not dangerous like all the reviews said. It was interesting to watch the different clusters of tubes float down the river. One groups could be in the lead for the longest time, but other groups could catch up at any moment. It was all based on the currents you would catch. It was all around a perfect condition to link tubes together, chat, and float. Dinner it was later on in the evening after we get all showered ...
Another leisurely stopover - in Vang Vieng
... China - handbags, T shirts etc and significantly more than any other national flag. We cannot imagine that the Lao people are actually aware of which country's flag it is, let alone feel a particular affinity with the United Kingdom (a somewhat ironic thought on the day that we will hear the result of the Scottish Independence vote). SG wonders whether it is a legacy of excess production of 2012 merchandise which is now filtering ...

Illinois governor says Sen. Burris should resign
Posted: 02/20/2009 - Gov. Pat Quinn on Friday called on fellow Democrat Roland Burris to resign from the Senate, saying the controversy surrounding Burris' appointment to the seat was hurting the state and his constituents. Quinn praised Burris as an honorable man, but said a shadow hangs over him after revelations the senator attempted to raise money for disgraced former Gov. Rod Blagojevich, who appointed him, and failed to disclose multiple conversations with Blagojevich advisers.

Kebo One Handed Bottle Opener
Turn out, that up until this point we've been going about our bottle opening all wrong. We've long resorted to the tradtitional bottle opener, wine key or heck, even a bic lighter (this last one works great in a pinch, and someone always has one at a party). That said all of these fine beer opening appratuses require one to use both hands. Hardly a good resolve if you've got one hand, a broken arm or don't wanna remove your hand from say, the controller.
The Kebo bottle opener is a gorgeusly crafted, single piece of stainless steel, or so it appears. Just place it on the bottle, slip your thumb through the hold and squeeze. The bottle top should pop off, and although they don't detail it on their site, we assume that's a tiny magnet embedded into the top, which should prevent the bottle cap from flying into your lady's eye.

This past May, Ja Rule returned from nearly two years behind bars for gun/drug possession and tax evasion. How's the Queens vet feeling, now that he's a free man again? Pretty f**king good, as you can imagine. As he puts it on EERTHANG, the first of two promo singles released since his return, "Just got home and I breathe different, I shine different, my mind different." Over the trap-tinged street boardwork of Irv Gotti, Reefa and Myles William, a fresh and rejuvenated Jeffrey Atkins fills listeners in on the whirlwind of drugs, beautiful women and first-class travel that's occupied his time during the last four months. This larger-than-life cut isn't attached to a forthcoming project, but we'll keep you posted on Ja Rule's plans as further details emerge.

Art Experiment
Keene exhibit travels to 'Intersection' of art, culture and identity
Gallery director Maureen Ahern said the exhibit is an experiment of sorts in which people are asked to participate in the artistic process — to bring their own experiences, feelings and thoughts into the gallery, and discover if those things shape how they respond to pieces of art and the circumstances that surrounded its creation.
"Many of them didn't necessarily have an art background, so it's been a fun learning experience," said Ahern, who also selected a piece for the exhibit.
"I hope people realize that how they interpret what they see depends on who they are," said Timney, who cited his participation in the exhibit helped change some of his own thinking. He said this conceptual shift began shortly after his selection of a sculpture that depicted a Native American, which he thought was interesting. What he didn't expect, Timney said, was that his selection, titled "King of the Maquas (Mowhawk)" and created by artist Judd Hartmann, was actually viewed as historically inaccurate by some Native Americans, artists and scholars.
He wound up experiencing the same learning curve he and other academic curators hope the public will encounter.
In asking questions about an object that on the surface appears deceptively simple, Ahern said the hope is people find themselves squarely at the middle of an intersection between art, culture and identity.
For Timney, his selected piece centers on the notion of free speech.
"Free speech is, and always will be, a two-edged sword," he said. "Our courts have generally sought to balance security with freedom when it comes to limiting expression. Where that balance point is, however, depends greatly upon the intersection of numerous aspects of culture."

Reading Crooked Little Vein (William Morrow; $22), the first prose novel by renowned graphic novelist Warren Ellis, is like being hit by a truck -- a dark, perverted truck, that, if its anything like the one described in the book, is full of blind men humping their seeing-eye dogs before being rear-ended by a Miata full of Latino trannies in clown suits. And in case thats not jarring enough, there are meticulously described scenes of tantric sex between ostriches, saline-inflated genitals, a butt plug embossed with the face of Jesus, and the Presidents Chief of Staff shooting up with monkey feces. Clearly Ellis isnt straying from what he knows.
And clearly hes written a book that fans of graphic novels will love. As for other readers, were not really sure. There is a plot, something complicated and not that interesting about a secondary version of the Constitution, so if youre reading for narrative arc youll be terribly disappointed. Ellis is more concerned with revealing how the underworld is no longer under anything, how perversions have become -- and should be -- mainstream. No matter how disconcerting you may find Vein to be, there is one comforting thing to come out of reading it: Youll never be as messed up as these guys.

Police: Texting while driving tough to prove
Limiting or banning the use of electronic devices while driving in New Hampshire was discussed Tuesday by a legislative committee considering several bills. (MICHAEL KRINKE PHOTOGRAPHY)
Two days before Christmas, John Bachman was getting his mail from the box in front of his home on Boston Post Road in Amherst. As Travis Hobbs, 20, of Mont Vernon was driving by, he was allegedly preoccupied with his cell phone and didn't see the retired fire chief before, or after, he hit him. Bachman died of his injuries. Hobbs, who turned himself in later at the police station, told police he thought he had hit a snow bank.
But Amherst Police Chief Mark Reams said "it is not often that investigators are able to specifically identify texting or cell phone usage as the cause of an accident."
With the records in hand, investigators can often determine if texts were being sent or received at or around the time of the accident. But that information is not definitive.
When it comes to prosecuting drivers for texting while driving when there isn't an accident involved, Nervik said police have an even harder time.
"It is my hope that New Hampshire intends to join other states in considering such measures as a ban on the use of cell phones in any form by novice drivers, or an outright ban on the use of handheld electronic communication devices altogether," he said.
"We as parents need to also set an example for our children while driving, and make every effort to diminish the perceived importance of these instant communications," said Reams, "that phone call, e-mail, or text message can always wait."

Ok so, I am random. I am weird.I'm socially awkward and sometimes I feel really creeped out by myself. I am probably one of the most positive people you will ever meet, but yet I'm still such a weirdo. I have my own group, and we're all hella weird. The ***** I give though are minimal.

The names aren't exact, and I'm sure they are
not the same people, but it's pretty coincidental, so I thought I'd write anyway.
Louis LaLonde married a Henrietta Peiunke and they had a daughter named Clara LaLonde around 1876 in Cheboygan, MI. This is at the very top of the mitten of Michigan - not in the upper peninsula.
If you know of any other LaLondes in the MI area, please let me know.

........and then there were twelve.
Last week I joined the 2014 4th Annual NICU Charity Challenge to make twelve newborn/preemie hats in twelve days and donate them to a local hospital. Since I lIke making hats and love all those precious little newborns, this seemed like a natural project to do.
Earlier I had purchased two skeins of Deborah Norville's Everyday yarn in Christmas red and a skein of Bernat's Pipsqueak with the intention of making a scarf. Just enough for twelve little Christmas hats. The fluffy soft Pipsqueak adds that special touch. As I was running short on the red yarn I used two rows of the Pipsqueak instead of the one on the last two hats. Wouldn't you know I like the last two hats the best.
A new pattern is offered each day of the challenge but I needed to make mine early and get on with the other three projects in my basket waiting to be finished. If you are interested in this project you can find the site here.
Yesterday I finished the last four and after Thanksgiving I will deliver them to the Baylor Grapevine Texas Hospital. Wish I had more to give, maybe next year.
Until next time....

A Morning With Bee Girls
Yesterday my Bee friends and I spent a lively morning at Adrianne's lovely home sharing summer happenings, sweet treats, and of course our latest projects.
Carolyn once again wowed us with one of her scrap quilts. She has the amazing gift of color selection. Loved the way that a simple strip quilt is morphed into a stunning design. Sorry ladies, no pattern, this is another Carolyn original.
Adrianne showed off the vintage quilt that her 92 year old friend had made. She struggled with some of the piecing but Adrienne's custom machine quilting always makes a showpiece of every quilt she does. It was fun to look at the fabrics in this quilt as their was everything from heavy cotton hosiery
to a piece that resembled a girdle.
Carolyn brought some books and magazines that she no longer wanted and I took home Rosemary Young's The Civil War Diary Quilt. It is a bit more than I would tackle in a quilt but love reading the stories in the diaries written from 1861-1865.
Every quilt has a story,

Can't Take the Mountains Out of the Girl
You can take the girl out of the mountains but you can't take the mountains out of the girl. Hubby and I just returned from a trip to Northern California, a place where we lived for ten years and vacationed some twelve years before. This is the scenic area between Mt Shasta and Mt Lassen along Hat Creek.
|Mt Shasta, California
|Fish Inn, Old Station, California
Hubby did a little fly fishing in Hat Creek, dinner with our friends Ray and Joann, went to Rotary with Bud, met the people who bought our house.
My quilting group had a luncheon in my honor and we all had a chance to catch up on things since I moved seven and a half years ago. The time went all too fast and I wish I had taken a group picture. Fifteen were there and miss each and every one of them and the Wednesday afternoons we spent together.
Saturday morning we drove back to Reno to fly back home, all the way silent tears welled up in my eyes as I knew we were leaving this special place but I did take a little bit of the pines with me-------I put a pine cone in my carry-on baggage.
Many thanks to all our friends that made our trip so special.
Hugs and stitches,

|Fantasy News
|Wed. Nov 26, 2014
|News: Drummond scored 17 points (6-11 FG, 5-9 FT), with 13 rebounds, three steals and two blocks in 38 minutes during Wednesday's loss to the Clippers.
|Impact: Drummond had a strong night against the big men of the Clippers, but it wasn't enough in the end. His night paid off for fantasy owners though, and he's been a double-double machine recently.(RotoWire, )
|Tue. Nov 25, 2014
|News: Drummond had 23 points and 10 rebounds for the Pistons on Tuesday.
|Impact: Drummond is up to six double-doubles, though he has a tough matchup against the Clippers on Wednesday.(STATS, 11:18pm)
|Tue. Nov 25, 2014
|News: Drummond scored a season-high 23 points (11-15 FG, 1-2 FT) to go with 10 rebounds, one assist, one steal, and two blocks in 32 minutes Tuesday for his best all-around game of the season.
|Impact: Drummond has been getting force fed the ball in the post this season to try and speed up his development on offense, and that's why his field goal percentage dropped from 62 percent last season to just 40 percent so far this season. That number will climb as the season goes on and Drummond becomes more comfortable with his bigger role on offense. Over his last five games, Drummond is averaging 11.6 points, 11.8 rebounds, and 1.4 blocks on 47 percent shooting in 29 minutes per game. He's a wonderful buy-low target in most leagues right now.(RotoWire, )
|Sat. Nov 22, 2014
|News: Drummond had one of his best games so far this season against the Hawks on Friday. He finished the contest with 13 points (5-12 FG, 3-4 FT), 16 rebounds, a steal, and a block in 38 minutes.
|Impact: Drummond has been dormant thus far, while owners know at some point the big one is coming. Games like this one remind everyone that the Age of Drummond may be closer at hand than thought. Over the past month only two of his games have had less than 10 rebounds. Although the scoring output isn't there yet, it will eventually come- at which point Drummond's value should catapult to the level those who drafted him expected.(RotoWire, )
|Thu. Nov 20, 2014
|News: Drummond collected 13 rebounds but scored only four on 2-of-10 shooting in Wednesday's loss to Phoenix.
|Impact: Drummond's third-year drop-off has been one of the most baffling things to see through the first month of the NBA season. He's shooting 39.4 percent from the floor after finishing second in the NBA in 2013-14 at 62.3.(STATS, 01:08am)
|Sun. Nov 9, 2014
|News: Drummond had 11 points and 18 boards Sunday.
|Impact: Drummond is back in action Monday against the Bulls, who have been bad at rebounding. Use Drummond and reap some fantasy rewards.(STATS, 10:13pm)
