Ok, last episode, we jumped forward a little to take the story of East Anglia to the point where Sigebehrt took the throne… but lets go back about 3 years… to 628 (ish)… and look at what is going on in Mercia.
Mercia, the Midland kingdom, has been a bit of a backwater in our story so far but it's about to get more important very soon. So we really should chat a bit about it.
So Mercia… what exactly are we talking about here? Some of you might be already familiar with the old Kingdom of Mercia through the Staffordshire Hoard episodes… or maybe you know about Offa's Dyke… but lets cover what we know about this Kingdom and give a rough outline of where it came from.
Part of what makes so interesting is how mysterious it is. It's beginnings are hazy and semi-mythical, even when looked at in comparison with the other Anglo Saxon kingdoms. We know about Wessex due to Alfred and his scribes… we know about Northumbria due to the efforts of Bede. But Mercia? There really weren't any scribes writing the story of Mercia, from the Mercian perspective… at least not like some of the other kingdoms had. Basically, Mercia lacked an Apologist. Sorry, Bede, but in some respects that is what you were… for example, look at the free pass you gave AEthelfrith after that business with the monks. So yeah, no apologist, and really not much of a written record at all. There's the Hidage, which we'll get to, but overall there isn't a ton.
So lets start with Mercia at it's most basic level, the name itself is a latinized term for the Old English kingdom that roughly translates to the Border People. What were they bordering. The assumption is that they were bordering the Welsh, given that their dynasty would claim to be Anglian… decendants of Icel. But as you have learned in earlier episodes, this stuff often tends to be at least partially mythological and backgrounds tend to be a great deal more complex than that. What with Ethnogenesis and all.
But was that really who they were bordering? Their capital was Tamworth… that's surprisingly close to Wales, if they were an Anglian kingdom bordering the Welsh. So rather than just assuming things, lets have a bit of a look at the evidence.

I'm interested by your pronunciation of Hwicce. When I have looked this up in the past I've got the impression that it is actually pronounced "Wych" possibly with the "e" sounded at the end as well. This is like the modern day district of Worcestershire Wychaven which I think derives its name from the kingdom of Hwicce but has since dropped the silent "H". Where did you pick up your pronunciation from?

Inge Festival Opens Wednesday, runs through March 29
The 33rd Annual William Inge Theatre Festival, the Official Theatre Festival of the State of Kansas, celebrates comedy, drama and music in four whirlwind days starting Wednesday evening, at Independence Community College in Independence, Kansas.

Tickets for all events are available at www.ingecenter.org/tickets or by calling (620) 332-5491, between 1pm and 5pm, Monday through Friday.
As always, the Inge Festival is filled with theatre luminaries, professional artists and scholars from across the country.
The Inge Festival kick-off is a concert reading of one of Arthur Kopit's newest plays, "BecauseHeCan", at 7:30 p.m. Wednesday, March 26, at the William Inge Theater at Independence Community College. Featured actors in this "techno thriller" are Barry Bostwick, George West Carruth, John Gleeson Connolly, Nathan Darrow, and Elyse Knight and is directed by Jane Unger.
On Thursday, March 27, get your tickets for "The Great Barrier" a new play by Otis Guernsey New Voices Award winner Mat Smart. The reading of his new work, that takes place Thursday, at 7:30 p.m. at the Independence High School auditorium. Cast members are Hawthorne James, Chuma Gault, and Kate LoConti, directed by Ron Oj Osborn.
The Inge Festival turns to the Independence Civic Center Friday, March 28th, as professional guest artists entertain with music at the Gala dinner. The event serves as a fund-raiser for the continued restoration of the William Inge Family Home, which is a year-round artist retreat.
The Inge Festival concludes Saturday, March 29, at 7:30 p.m., with "Arthur Kopit: What is the Meaning of This?" This multi-media extravaganza features live performances, video, and guest performers in Arthur Kopit's achievements. Mike Wood is creator/writer/director, with live scenes and staging by director, Karen Carpenter.
There will be plenty more going on during the daylight hours, too. Thursday through Saturday, Inge Festival patrons have the rare opportunity to learn from working professionals during public workshops and panels. The guest artists address the full range of performing arts.
Also during the daytime hours are "Scenes at the Inge House." Excerpts of scenes from plays by William Inge and Arthur Kopit take place in the living room of the William Inge boyhood home in Independence. Patrons may also ride on a "Tour of Inge's Independence," viewing the sites of William Inge's boyhood—still intact in historic Independence.
The second annual William Inge High School Acting Competition attracts talented students from across the state as they perform selected scenes by Inge, and takes place Saturday.
Individual tickets for evening events range from $12-$35. The Tour of Inge's Independence and Scenes at the Inge House are $5 admission.

What did you think about your parents' marriage when you were growing up? If you're like most, you probably tried not to think about it, especially when you were young. The world revolved around you, not them. Besides the everyday stuff, all the other stuff, their secrets, was too weird to think about.So, try to put yourself in the mind of a teenage boy. Maybe you were one. Maybe you're like me, raising one. Now imagine riding that train of thought as it lumbers along twisting and turning, then barreling down the track and derailing. That's the trip Mona Simpson takes us on in her new novel, Casebook.Meet Miles, a teen living in sunny Santa Monica, Calif., enjoying school, sleepovers and hanging out. His biggest worries are trying to persuade his mathematician mom, the Mims, to let him watch Survivor, eat junk food and get a Game Boy.He's got it pretty good. At least that's what his friends think. But Miles is a snoop. He questions everything. He's suspicious of everyone. He eavesdrops. He keeps secrets from his parents, even from his best friend, Hector.When his parents separate and his dad moves out, Miles is left with the Mims and his younger twin sisters. The Boops, as he calls them, are too young to really understand what's going on with their parents. But Miles, he's aware of everything. He's searching for answers to all the questions he's afraid to ask.After the divorce, Dad has lots of girlfriends. But it isn't until the Mims starts dating Eli, the dorky guy she used to run with, that Miles' mind really starts racing. Eli is also divorced, a vegetarian, an animal lover and he lives in Washington, D.C. At first Miles thinks, "OK, so she's dating. She'll have someone to talk to when we're not here, and she seems looser, happier."But the longer the Mims and Eli are together, the more Miles see questionable changes in his mom, stirring up the snoop in him again. Along with Hector and a low-rent private investigator, Miles sets out to find out if Eli is the real deal. Can the Mims trust Eli? Can Miles? Casebook puts Miles and the reader in that place maybe we didn't want to be, smack dab in the middle of our parents' secret lives. He has to decide how much he really wants to know, and at what cost. The kid in all of us will root for him. He wants to protect his family and get his life back. Can he do it? It is worth it to read and find out.

Teck Resources,
Korea Zinc,
treatment charges,
Andrea Hotter
CANCUN, Mexico Teck Resources Ltd. and Korea Zinc Co. Ltd. have settled a benchmark zinc treatment charge (TC) at $210.50 per tonne, swinging terms in favor of the smelters for the coming year, industry sources told AMM.
The benchmark is based on a zinc price of $2,000 per tonne.
Last year, the zinc TC settled between the two companies at $191 per tonne, also based on a $2,000-per-tonne zinc price.
Neither Teck nor Korea Zinc have confirmed the benchmark, which they have been negotiating during the International Zinc Association conference in Cancun, Mexico, this week.
The higher benchmark reflects a looser market for zinc concentrates, also evidenced in higher spot TCs recently.
Other miners and smelters attending the conference are expected to settle contracts on similar terms once the Teck-Korea Zinc benchmark is confirmed.
Earlier this week, a level of $209 per tonne was said by market sources to be the focus of negotiations (amm.com, Feb. 25).
The deal is also said to include de-escalator and escalator conditions, under which the base TC would change by an agreed percentage, according to fluctuations in the London Metal Exchange zinc price above or below the basis price.
Two industry sources suggested the companies have agreed to escalators in steps: 6 percent up to $2,500, 3 percent up to $3,000 and 2 percent for prices above that.
This would imply companies expect volatile but higher zinc prices.
But there is still little clarity on these price participation clauses.
Another source said the companies have agreed on an escalator of 5 percent and a de-escalator of 3 percent.
All comments are subject to editorial review.
All fields are compulsory.
Every month American Metal Market takes a statistical look inside the marketplace.
The Korean producers 'seem to think they have a good case, but personally I wouldn't get overly confident.'

Police: Woman assaulted officersMarch 18,2013
DERBY Police say an 18-year-old Vermont woman is facing charges after she allegedly kicked a state trooper and spit on and kicked a local police officer.
Trooper Debra Munson said Alyssa Lamadeleine, of Charleston, was intoxicated when she was arrested shortly before midnight Wednesday after driving her vehicle into a ditch in Derby.
Munson said Lamadeleine kicked her twice while they were waiting for an ambulance to arrive, then kicked and spit on a Newport City officer at North Country Hospital.
Police said Lamadeleine also damaged the inside and outside of a police cruiser while being taken to state police barracks in Derby.
The Caledonian Record reported that Lamadeleine will face charges of drunken driving, assault on a law enforcement officer and unlawfulMORE IN This Just InBARRE The mid-November deadline has passed and the resumes are all in, but the number of...

Obama 2.0: The liberal agenda to come
Do not expect a return of the mythical moderate Obama, the one who speaks of bipartisanship with an earnest tone and dances cautiously around his liberal partners, trying not to brush too close to them. Tonight he is most likely to emerge arm in arm with them. He has more "flexibility" now.
Tonight the President makes clear his priorities, and they will share one common theme: More money and more power for Washington so that it may reshape America according to the image Barack Obama has envisioned.
There is to be no serious effort to eliminate the federal debt that already is harming our economy and will only do greater damage as it rapidly expands under a President who has no interest in controlling it. There is to be no serious entitlement reform, no serious reduction in federal spending or power.
On domestic issues, expect a highly partisan, exceedingly liberal call to expand the power, scope and size of the leviathan. On foreign policy, expect retreat.
Tonight, Obama begins in earnest his plan to become the liberal Reagan, to undo the Reagan legacy and restore the FDR-LBJ welfare state, only greater and with more power and authority to control the lives of citizens. The Republican response ought to be as strong and aggressive as the President's. Hit back, and hit back hard. This is a big moment. Live up to it.

出自XDOJ Wiki
I was enjoying our meal in a popular open-air restaurant around the main tourist drag in Panajachel, Guatemala, when some tourists about our age walked slowly by. Billy says "Hey, the food's great here, why not give it a try?"
The man looked interested, the girl looked horrified.
I chimed in with "Order the Amuerzo Economico and you'll pay half the marked menu prices."
The man took two seconds to decide on this great deal, making a proceed to sit at a table next to ours.
Spousal opposition
"We're likely to eat here?" The wife questioned.
Clearly she held potential to deal with entering this clean, brightly decorated eating establishment.
I'm suggesting it had been no dump. There is a set screen TV on your wall and lively Salsa music around the stereo system. Clean handwoven Guatemalan tablecloths covered every table which also supported flowers. Original indigenous artwork adorned the walls.
The girl, who was noticeably beautiful and well-kept, had her hesitation distinctly written throughout her scrunched up face.
"I hope they speak English here," she said by having an audible sigh as she flopped down.
"I desire a Coke. Do you have Coke? What do you need to drink here?" She demanded in rapid-fire English. The bilingual waiter maintained together with her rush of questions pretty much.
"You have chicken or pork? I'll go ahead and take pork. Honey, they have chicken or pork."
Meanwhile, the husband and Billy were chatting away about retirement, finance and travel, having a grand ol' time.
The drama darkens
Bottles of Coke and empty glasses promptly arrived at the table and again, this poor woman looked stricken. Simply appalled.
I could not imagine what the problem was, so I tried to catch her reactions from the side of my attention.
Mrs. Visitor had personal drama happening and that i thought it was mesmerizing. Apparently some of the syrup had leaked out at the top of the Coke bottle, creating a tiny dark sticky blob to look.
She checked out her husband, then at me, then at the bottle, then at her husband, then at me, on the other hand in the bottle. She disgustingly ran her finger towards the top of the bottle and today she had that tiny sweet dollop on her finger. She again checked out her husband (who was ignoring her right now), then at me, then at her finger, then at her husband, then at me, on the other hand at her finger!
By now I'm thinking "She doesn't have Kleenex in her own purse? If she's been blown off track with this small and common occurrence, what is she doing traveling in this country?"
If this innocent ooze of syrup upset her a lot how her meal would go?
No disrespect intended
Since no one was rushing to her rescue to give her a hot, clean, wet, soapy cloth or whisk her off to a 5 star restaurant complete with apologies, eventually Mrs. Visitor looked to her left, then to her right, and rather guiltily, wiped the syrup off on the tablecloth. I do not imagine it ever occurred to her to ask the waiter for a napkin.
Part of me felt badly for not coming to her deliverance. She was afraid and out of her element, and I could see her frustration towards her husband for taking her here to Guatemala. Lost in desperation with no the aid of her spouse, this well-groomed woman was face-to-face with the fringe of her comfort zone... also it was not pretty.
I was both stunned and completely transfixed. I had forgotten that my twenty-two years of world travel had trained me to put a tissue within my purse for unexpected events exactly like it.
So here are several quick survival strategies for travel that I we do hope you find useful:
Bring baby wipes. Ladies have babies around the globe. If you're someplace with a semblance of civilization, you'll find baby wipes in the grocery stores. Go to the baby section, find the wipes. Insert them in your purse. When you travel on buses, want to sit in a chair which has strawberry syrup on it or discover that you need toilet tissue within the bathroom, you've got a clean wipe arrive at your aid.
Put napkin or wipes down soda bottle necks. If you are eating outside in warm weather and therefore are having a soda, flies or bees often gather for that sugary syrup. Place napkins or said wipes on the bottle neck and you may avoid an awful creature falling into your pop. When you are traveling overseas, it is commonplace to wipe from the mouth of beer and soda bottles even just in upscale locations.
Use sliced limes to wash your fingers. Platters of fish or shrimp in many cases are served whole by the pool and eating seafood can leave your fingers messy. Utilizing a thin napkin at your table could be unsatisfying. Use the sliced limes first then utilize your napkin. In this manner you won't have tiny bits of paper stuck to your fingers to annoy you further.
Say "Provecho!" When entering or leaving a restaurant in South america, say "Provecho!" with other diners. This basically means "Enjoy your meal" and it's a really socially polite aspect to say. It implies that you're an experienced traveler and you are an all-around-nice person.
Don't allow your safe place limit you. Life is for living. Grab a bite and relish it. Situations and circumstances aren't always just like they are "back home" and that is not a bad thing. Who cares if one makes a mistake? So what if a person lunch wasn't your favorite? A smile goes a long way for those around you and while you're in internet marketing give one on your own.
You deserve it to be brave enough to consider an opportunity.

Doctor Sleep by Stephen King This is by far the book I am most excited to read this fall. Doctor Sleep is the long awaited sequel to The Shining, which first came out in 1977. Dan Torrence is still haunted by what happened to his family one winter at the Overlook Hotel. Now an adult, Dan has settled into a simple life in New Hampshire and uses his fading shining ability to provide comfort to the dying. But Dan is forced into a battle for the life of a young girl with a strong shining ability and the ghosts of his past come to a head in what I hope will be a creepy adventure worthy of its predecessor. To gear up for the release, refresh your memory and check out The Shining.
A Great Game: The Forgotten Leafs & the Rise of Professional Hockey by Stephen J. Harper (yes that Stephen Harper). Any hockey fan has seen our Prime Minister at a number of hockey games as he often gets shown on the jumbotron or on TV. It's no secret that he is a big fan of the game and for years he has mentioned that he was writing a hockey book, he even became a member of the Society of International Hockey Research. Well that book is A Great Game: The Forgotten Leafs & the Rise of Professional Hockey. Don't let the title fool you though the book isn't only for Leaf fans, but is a look at the early history of professional hockey. A must read for any Canadian hockey fan.
Si-Cology 1 By Si Robertson I watch a lot of Duck Dynasty, it's hard not to get wrapped up in the antics of the Robertson clan and by far my favorite part of the show is pretty much anything Uncle Si says (Si-isms) or does. The guy is definitely a character and now he can add published author to his list of accomplishments. Si-Cology 1 is various tales from Si that essentially tell his life story. I have just started reading the book and it's interesting to get insight into parts of Si's life that aren't on the show, including his life with his wife and children. Si-Cology 1 joins other Duck Dynasty books including Happy, Happy, Happy and Duck Commander Family both of which are best sellers.
Margaret Learmont is a long-standing volunteer with the Libraries in Residence program at the Bethany Care Centre in West Hillhurst. This program is designed for senior care facilities in Calgary where residents can borrow and enjoy books in the comfort of their own building without the challenge of getting to and from the Library.
Margaret has been volunteering with the Calgary Public Library since 1986 and has a great deal of experience with books. Margaret was a Librarian in England and has spent her life in libraries across the world. The first library she volunteered at was in Guyana and this trend of volunteering continued on as she lived in Trinidad, New Mexico and finally Calgary.
What Margaret loves most about volunteering with the Libraries in Residence program is meeting people and hearing their amazing stories. She said it can be hard to just walk into someone's room and say that you are there to visit, but when you bring a book it becomes a lot easier. It can be that missing piece that starts a great conversation.

The idea of planning a wedding didn't seem so bad. After all I'd been to a lot of them. Walk down the aisle, eat some food, dance and we're done!
When we first sat down to start planning, I was thinking I'd like something like this
although I was actually at the level of this
because I had no idea that things like this even existed.
Little did I know that I was entering a world full of chair covers, buntings, post-wedding brunches, vegetarian stuffed peppers and DIY decorating. One bruised ego and 250 origami flowers later, I realized that maybe this wasn't so simple. Thankfully the Calgary Public Library's collection was there to help me out.
The Library has a selection of DVDs, books and eBooks to help you plan for that big, wonderful, stressful, fantastic, what have we gotten ourselves into day! The Knot guides are a great place to start with organizing the wedding as whole, or even just the ceremony itself. Where should your venue be? What kind of music will you play? Should you incorporate a traditional ritual, or make one up? Knot Guides can help you through both the big and small decisions.
By far the majority of wedding books out there are written with the bride in mind, but thankfully I stumbled across this gem which covers everything from budgeting to that first dance for the groom. This is a great all-around guide which also incorporates humorous stories and anecdotes which can go a long way towards lightening the mood. The book also quickly dispels the stereotype that weddings are just for the bride.
Once we had an idea of where, how and when we wanted to get married, I was able to find a few books that helped me with some of the specifics. My first task was to buy a suit. After spending an hour with a tailor and all of that measuring tape, my first checkout was this:
Being somewhat chea... err… fiscally responsible, we decided that the best photographer was probably someone who was related to us. That's where Wedding Photography Unveiled: Inspiration and Insight from 20 Top Photographers came in handy.
Finally, does room/budget for 50 guests + our combined 150 relatives = a lifetime of awkward family reunions? Not to worry, the Library carries this good old standby in etiquette, Emily Post!
So if you are planning to get married (and eloping isn't an option) check out the Calgary Public Library's wedding planning collection for great advice and practical ideas.
Linda began delivering materials to Library customers in 2009 after moving to Calgary. Like most volunteers, she wanted to contribute her time and energy to something that holds personal meaning and interest for her. As an avid reader, Linda shares a passion for books with the customers she serves.
"One of the things I enjoy most is meeting other book lovers, talking about genres and authors we have in common, and sharing information about new reading possibilities. It's been an unexpected benefit to become more familiar with the various technologies available to readers, particularly through the Calgary Public Library system."
From the moment she began volunteering, staff knew Linda would be a great volunteer. Linda is responsive to her readers' needs, is highly organized, asks thoughtful questions, and displays a great deal of understanding and humour in demanding situations. Many Calgary Public Library volunteers go above and beyond their formal volunteer role, and Linda is no exception. In the past she went so far as to assist one woman with her garden because it brought the reader so much joy.
The Homebound Readers program is effective because committed and caring individuals are willing to brighten the days of customers who cannot visit libraries due to health or mobility concerns. This valuable service keeps essential literacy skills from declining due to accessibility issues and promotes overall health through enjoyment of library materials in a variety of formats. If you know of anyone who can benefit from this service, please contact 403-260-2703 for more information.
Bridgertons: Happily Ever AfterSum of All KissesJulia Quinn first introduced readers to the Bridgerton family in a light and humourous 8-book romance series. The books allowed readers to follow the tribulations of eight alphabetically named siblings (Anthony, Benedict, Colin, Daphne, Eloise, Francesca, Gregory, and Hyacinth), while enjoying the London background and a fairly substantial set of characters around whom the stories came to be told, including the formidable and forthright Lady Danbury, the definitely unmusical Smythe-Smith family, and the mysterious gossip columnist Lady Whistledown. All of these characters eventually take center stage in their own right in other books, and indeed the Smythe-Smith clan eventually does get their own series. This 'easter egg' (or crossover) effect allows readers to catch up with characters with whom they are familiar and have an affinity, while allowing new readers to start up a series. A prime example of this is the use of a particularly horrid romance novel that is either passed around or which all of the characters seem to end up reading and discussing.
This fall Ms. Quinn's two new books will present readers with either a visit back to not only all of the Bridgertons, but their mother, Violet, with an additional epilogue intended to answer potential questions or tie up any possible loose ends from each of the original eight books in The Bridgertons: Happily Ever After, and yet another unlikely couple will meet up at a Smyth-Smith wedding (one of the three from The Lady Most Willing), in The Sum of All Kisses, under the stern and amused eye of Lady Danbury. August is ReadaRomance month, and Julia Quinn's post will be added to the R-A-R site, which has posts by 93 contributing authors, on August 25th.
StormbreakerRussian RouletteYounger readers will be familiar with Anthony Horowitz as the author of the Alex Rider series. We first met Alex in Stormbreaker, when officers came to his school to tell him that his guardian and uncle, Ian, had been killed in an auto accident. Alex initial suspicions about his uncle's death will set him on a chilling and dangerous path as an MI6 operative and into a life of danger, one that eventually spanned nine books and four graphic novels, with Alex as a teenage secret agent dealing with spies and a life that seemed ever more out of his control.
This fall, Mr. Horowitz is set to release a prequel to the series called Russian Roulette: the story of an assassin, in which readers will get the backstory of Yassen Gregorowich, a boy who will grow up to be Alex's mirror image, and become the man who kills Alex's father.
Are there authors that you wish would revisit a character or a series that you really like, or that reintroduce moments from earlier efforts into their books in a particularly enjoyable way?
A House in the Sky By Amanda LindhoutOne book that is getting a lot of buzz is a memoir by Canmore resident, and journalist Amanda Lindhout. In August 2008 Lindhout was abducted and held hostage for 15 months. At the time, her abduction was in the news and her plight became a political debate about whether the governments should pay ransoms for citizens held hostage in foreign countries. A House in the Sky, is Amanda's memoir about what she experienced during those months.
A House in the Sky starts with Amanda's childhood living in Sylvan Lake with her mom and brothers. As a young girl she becomes fascinated by the exotic places and pictures found in old copies of National Geographic magazines. What started as a means of escape from a less than perfect home life, becomes a passion for travelling that takes Amanda throughout the world.
It is during her travels that Amanda becomes a freelance journalist and decides to travel to Somalia. In Somalia, while on her way to visit a refugee camp Amanda and four others are taken hostage by a group of fundamentalists. For 460 days Amanda endures horrific conditions and both physical and mental abuse at the hands of her captors.
The book is about more than just the abuse suffered by Amanda; it's about her spirit to survive and not give into the despair of her situation. Throughout her ordeal and in the years that have followed, Lindhout maintains her belief in the goodness of people. She writes about her feelings now towards the people that abused her and she expresses an understanding for their actions. That stayed with me after I finished this book and it's why I couldn't pull myself away from her story.
Through the non-profit organization that she founded, Amanda Lindhout has worked to improve conditions in Somalia epecially in the area of education for women. And despite everything she has been through, she has even gone back to Somalia to do humanitarian work. A remarkable woman and a remarkable book.
A House in the Sky will be released in September and you can currently place holds on both the book and bookCD.

South Florida is thick with amateur ornithologists -- you can't swing a booby around here without taking out a couple bird watchers. It seems that no matter what park you're in, someone is whipping out his Peterson to identify a particularly hot piece of plumage. Local hot spots include Tree Tops Park, West Lake Park, Loxahatchee Nature Preserve -- rewarding venues all. But if you like your fowl up-close and personal, check out Wakodahatchee Wetlands. Brought to you courtesy of the Palm Beach County Water Utilities Department, Wakodahatchee is quite probably the world's best-looking sewage-treatment plant. These "created waters," planted with bulrush, slash pine, and sabal palms, are a magnet for birds and reptiles. A half-mile boardwalk keeps you nice and dry above it all, allowing you to get within feet of such finds as the elusive purple gallinule, the red-shouldered hawk, the belted kingfisher, and the great blue heron. Look down and you're likely to see snakes, alligators, and turtles. Admission is free, and Wakodahatchee is open seven days a week, dawn to dusk.

Satellite Images Document Destruction in Wake of Abyei Invasion
The Satellite Sentinel Project (SSP) has documented evidence of attacks by armored vehicles and the destruction of villages in Sudan's disputed border region of Abyei following the reported bombardment and occupation of the area by the Sudan Armed Forces (SAF) on May 20-21. The SSP report, "Abyei Invasion: Evidence of SAF Incursion into the Abyei Region" captures the razing of structures north of Abyei town, including the destruction of a southern-aligned base at Todach; the potential abandonment of a southern base at Tajalei; and fires burning in the town of Dungop and another point near Abyei town. SSP also documents the apparent absence of previously documented forces at a northern-aligned militia base at Goli. This imagery is consistent with reports that northern-aligned forces have razed buildings in Abyei.
"This latest attack by the Khartoum regime demonstrates that the lack of consequences for such offensive actions will ensure that they continue," said board member John Prendergast. "The escalation of aerial attacks in Darfur, the intensification of coordinated attacks by Khartoum-supported militias, and the military occupation of Abyei require a much stronger response from the international community."
Board Members Don Cheadle and John Prendergast in Joint Huffington Post Video: "Bang the Drum for Peace in Darfur"
A new video, featured on the Huffington Post, captures a conversation between board members Don Cheadle and John Prendergast about what needs to be done in Darfur.
View the "Bang the Drum for Darfur" video above, and follow the link for the accompanying statement, as well as information on how you can take action.
"Zimbabwean President Robert Mugabe said on Wednesday he was giving the US Obama administration time to lift sanctions its predecessor imposed on his country, saying he did not expect immediate action."
"The US plans to change its approach to Burma, enlisting a combination of sanctions and engagement in a fresh bid to persuade the ruling junta to allow more democratic freedoms, Secretary of State Hillary Clinton said Wednesday."
"A key US Senator sharply critical of US economic sanctions on Burma announced Tuesday he would hold an October 1 hearing on their effectiveness in fostering democratic reforms there."
"For the first time in nine years, the United States allowed Burma's foreign minister to come to Washington, a sign of softening US policy toward the military junta that has run that Asian nation for nearly five decades."
"Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon has strongly condemned the weekend attack in southern Sudan in which more than 100 people were reportedly killed, the latest in a string of ethnically-based incidents in the region."

text: Thank you so much for all this info, I'm starting to think I should revisit the drawing board on this one. Though I'm fond of how I've stylized the phoenix I do want to stay true to the heraldic code and have a period device I can be proud of! Ld Kylan Ulfgierrson mka Charles "I don't know half of you half as well as I should like; and I like less than half of you half as well as you deserve." ________________________________ From: Christie Ward <val_org at hotmail.com> To: Ansteorra Heralds <heralds at lists.ansteorra.org> Sent: Wed, April 20, 2011 10:03:58 PM Subject: [ANSTHRLD] Of Phoenixes Several people have already noted that you really can't get away with putting red on black. They didn't do a good job explaining why you can't get away with outlining (heraldic term is "fimbriating") the red thing in gold. There is a good discussion about why at http://heraldry.sca.org/laurel/lessons/lesson05.html A good rule of thumb for fimbriation is that if you can take the image you want to fimbriate, shrink it, and place it over the full size info and it fits neatly inside, then you can fimbriate that item. To see how this works, take a look at http://ace.heraldry.ansteorra.org/uploads/201012/1291315635.jpg -- The big cross can't be fimbriated, because when you shrink it it doesn't fit inside the parent cross. The same thing applies to any "creature" charge. As several folks have pointed out, a heraldic phoenix is not a bird made out of flame (this is how modern fantasy artists depict it), but instead is a bird that sets itself aflame and burns to death, only to be reborn from the ashes. You will find it depicted pretty much like an eagle roosting in a campfire.

Upgrade your CMS with this TinyMCE image manager plugin - upload, manage and insert images into TinyMCE editor. Easy to customize and integrate.
A TinyMCE image manager designed as a more minimal (and cheaper) alternative to the official image manager.
RF Rob Faas
Light weight and easy to integrate, the developer responds fast to questions and fixes issues. It's a handy, simple & user friendly image upload/manage plugin.
Extract the plug-in zip package into your TinyMCE /plugins directory. It should create a /lioniteimages directory - if not, move the files manually into that directory (/plugins/lioniteimages).
The plug-in name is 'lioniteimages' and needs to be added to the plug-in list:
plugins : "bold,italic,underline,strikethrough,|,lioniteimages",
The image manager is packaged with a PHP connector which needs to be configured for the directory structure of your application. If you are using a different server-side language, you will need to port the connector to your language to use the plug-in.
To change the configuration, edit the config.php file that's inside /lioniteimages/connector/php:
// The URL that points to the upload folder on your site.
// Can be a relative or full URL (include the protocol and domain)
$imageURL = '/demos/http/uploads';
// Full upload system path. Make sure you have write permissions to this folder
$uploadPath = '/var/www/demos/http/uploads';
The image URL value would be used in the HTML 'src' attribute of inserted images, so change it accordingly. Depending on your application, you might separate directories for different users. You can add a dynamic part to the directory names based on user identifier. For example:
$userId = Auth::getId();
$imageURL = '/uploads/' . $userId;
$uploadPath = '/var/www/project/public/uploads/' . $userId;
In some cases you want to limit access to image management. Implement your authentication logic inside the isAuth() function.
function isAuth() {
//Perform your own authorization to make sure user is allowed to upload
return true; //Return true when authenticated, false when denied
Make sure the value of the upload path parameter is correct and that you have permissions to write to the target directory. Also, in case you have URL rewriting that is affecting the folder containing the plugin, you need to allow requests to reach the connector by disabling rewriting inside the plugin folder (or any folder above it).
Make sure that your image URL value is correct. It should be a publicly accessible directory under your document root folder. Also, if you have URL rewriting enabled (such as Apache's mod-rewrite), you might need to disable it inside the directory (using an .htaccess file with the directive 'RewriteEngine off' in Apache).
The plugin styles are located in the /css/styles.css file. You can control the basic look of the plug-in from there. If you want to perform more extensive changes and add / change markup, you can edit the lioniteimages.htm file. Please make sure to leave existing classes as the Javascript functionality depends on it.
All the icons (including the TinyMCE interface icon) are located inside the /img directory. The plugin icon used is taken from the famfamfam icon pack (/img/icon.png).
The plug-in is provided with a PHP connector. To use the plug-in with other server-side languages, you will need to translate the PHP connector scripts to your required language. If you are willing to contribute your code back to the component, I will reimburse your license fee via Paypal (even if you purchased the sublicesnable license).
There are four connector scripts included with the plug-in:
for customization or integration services
The component is very usefull. I don't need to buy Tiny Image Uploader - it's very expensive for my task. This component more cheaper than original.A Anton
A little bit small documentation. And flash uploader using - is not so good. I cannot change smth in logic there.
Other things are excellent!
Love it! TinyMCE should really include an image manager, but for now this is an excellent plug-in as opposed to their expensive alternativeEG Eran Galperin
Light weight and easy to integrate, the developer responds fast to questions and fixes issues. It's a handy, simple & user friendly image upload/manage plugin.RF Rob Faas
Hi, your plugin looks perfect for my requirements. Just one question.. Can I specify an upload URL with each instance? For example, I'll be using this in an admin backend, and each time TinyMCE loads it will need to upload images to a specific path relative to the content that's been loaded. Thanks
Hi Mark, I'm afraid that use-case isn't really planned for. You can add logic to the upload directory based on user state (in the session or cookie) - which is something I do often with it, but if you need to pass information from the page, some modification to the upload Javascript would be needed. So if you're worried about that, this might not be the best solution for you.
Plugin is great - thanks. Is there an easy way to add a padding style to an image, so surrounding text doesn't run up to edge of image? Thanks, James

Tennessee Recycling Information and Tips
Recycling in Tennessee needs a boost
Participation in curbside recycling programs and overall recycling efforts in Tennessee are pretty poor compared to other states. In fact, 2008 statistics show the TN recycling rate is just 4.64%, good enough for 8th worst in the country.
FACT: Average state recycling rate in the U.S. is 34% (EPA)
A 2012 story by WBIR states that just one out of every three Curby customers recycle regularly. Curby is the free curbside recycling program in Nashville.
Even though recycling is free in Nashville, customers still don't use it. But why?
One of the problems is the low landfill tipping fees in Tennessee. The average TN landfill tipping fee in 2012 was $37 per ton. It costs more than that to recycle the same amount of material. So, people would rather dump it than recycle it.
The state government is looking to change things by increasing tipping fees and promoting the benefits of recycling. Here are a few of those benefits:
- More jobs. For every 5 tons of waste disposed of in a landfill, one job is created. For every 5 tons of materials recycled or recovered, 10 recycling-related jobs are created or 75 material recovery jobs.
- Recycling eliminates the cost of landfilling and puts money back into the economy with the materials recovered.
- Manufacturing recycling materials into new products is cheaper and more energy-efficient compared to using virgin materials.

Find a local recycling facility
Find a recycling center near you by visiting Earth911. You can find a recycler for virtually any type of waste, including batteries, e-waste, glass, metal, paint and more.
Information about recycling e-waste in TN
Save money and reduce waste by composting
As much as 30% of municipal waste in the U.S. is compostable, including yard debris, food scraps and paper products.
Benefits of composting:
- It's free organic fertilizer and soil additive
- Reducing waste output by up to 30% could reduce the cost of your waste hauling bill

Charlotte, NC 28203
(704) 817-9697
Located in South End's Atherton Mill, this authentic British pub goes all out for soccer, carrying games on its 102-inch high-def projector screen. When the World Cup or other international tournaments aren't underway, Big Ben airs UK matches and playoff games.

November 27, 2014
Tennis Channel is selling the rights to its Las Vegas tournament to the ATP, which could take the event out of the city.
"It's time for us to focus more of our energy on ... (bringing) more tennis to television and the Internet than ever before," Tennis Channel chairman Ken Solomon said in a statement Thursday.
The network bought the tournament from IMG in 2005, when it was played in Scottsdale, Ariz., and renamed it the Tennis Channel Open that year. The tournament was moved to Las Vegas in 2006.
"The ATP is currently in the process of determining the future of the Las Vegas event," Tennis Channel's statement said.
Asked for comment, tour spokesman Kris Dent said: "The ATP can
confirm that the Tennis Channel has decided not to continue operating the Las Vegas ATP Tour event.
ATP can also confirm that it has purchased the membership and will now consider all available options for the vacancy."

"Of course you realize, dis means war!"Not all antagonists are fire breathing Card Carrying Villains, a good many are Plucky Comic Relief Harmless Villains, or just plain incidental annoyances, and these guys just can't be done away with using the same response as the former. It just wouldn't jibe to have a hero beat said antagonist to within an inch of his life for putting itching powder in his cowl, at least not without the hero being an Anti. These antagonists have a certain degree of Karmic Protection, even though this character outright annoys others they are protected from harm because they genuinely mean well or at least aren't actually harming anyone. These guys and gals have to be dealt with creatively, and some can even be convinced to tone it down. However, if they do turn bad and Kick the Dog, the protection is lost. Underlying all this is the idea that the typical Karmic Trickster shenanigans can only be justified if provoked to avoid appalling the audience. In that sense, the Karmic Protection extends both ways: it protects the annoyance from real harm, and the hero from karmic backlash as he's perfectly justified in his response. Sometimes though, the attempts at Karmic Protection don't work for some of the audience and just end up with the protagonist looking like a Jerkass and rooting for the supposed antagonist to get one over on this pompous ass who deserved it anyway. This is usually why a hero who's a Slave to PR won't be the one to initiate hostilities against an Affably Evil villain. See also Laser-Guided Karma and Karmic Trickster.

Need another item on your GPS to distract you in traffic? Now you can dream about flying over your fellow road rage-ists—as well as plan your best route.
Navteq says it will soon add air travel info to its GPS services. Twice says it will be the first one to do so. The info will tell you what the weather is like in Dallas, Chicago, Philly, LAX, and hundreds of other U.S.-based airports. It will also tell you what the average wait will be like for each stop's security lines.
This comes on the heels of Navteq's recent announcement that it would soon add gas-price updates. That feature will allow drivers to check out prices at local gas stations, as well as the prices of different grades of gas. Users can also configure the system to deliver gas info as you reach milestones, such as gas level or the number of miles driven.
Both additions are now in beta testing with a widespread release expected in 2009.Follow Electronic House on Facebook and Twitter.

Bone Thugs-n-Harmony's Flesh-n-Bone was reportedly arrested Thursday (April 2) night in California on a weapons charge.
The rapper was taken in by police after a gun was discovered in his vehicle.
Flesh-n-Bone was arrested yesterday evening in Santa Clarita, Calif. for gun possession. Police say they discovered a gun in Flesh-n-Bone's car, real name Stanley Howse, and took him into custody for gun possession. According to sheriff's information, he is being held without bail and is currently still in the slammer. He is due in court on Monday, April 6. (TMZ)
He was reportedly caught after being examined during a traffic stop.
Flesh-n-Bone was arrested for gun possession in Canyon Country on Thursday. During a routine traffic stop at approximately 5:30 p.m. on Thursday, Santa Clarita Valley sheriff's deputies discovered a gun in the Howse's car, Lt. Mark Herhsey said. Howse, 35, of Canyon Country, is being held in lieu of $35,000 bail. (The Signal)
The rapper was recently released from prison after serving eight years behind bars.
Howse was sentenced to 11 years in prison in September 2000 for threatening a neighbor with an AK-47 assault rifle. He served at Pleasant Valley State Prison until his release in July 2008. With the group, he won a Grammy Award for Best Rap Performance in 1997 and an American Music Award in 2007. (KHTS News)
The rap group was sued late last year for not performing at a pre-booked venue in Washington.
The Grammy-winning crew have been sued by the Jazz of Tacoma basketball team who claim the crew breached their contract after the money was handed over for an April 2007 performance. "The defendants breached the agreement by failing to show up and perform — [they] neither canceled the engagement or returned any monies paid under the contract," the lawsuit reads. "The plaintiff has since that time done everything in its power to settle this matter without any good faith response by the defendants." (SOHH)
