Roaming Around Rome!
Rome, also known as the "Eternal City" is one of the most beautiful places in the world and is full of such rich history. As popular as Rome is, however, it occurred to me that I do not know that much about it. I did some digging and found some pretty interesting facts. Let's take a look:
• Romans were highly superstitious and feared anything to do with the left, which is why their words for "left" and "left-handed" were sinister and sinstra, giving us the modern meaning of "sinister."
• Sometimes the Romans would flood the whole Colosseum for a boat battle.
• Purple clothing was a status symbol and reserved only for emperors or senators. To achieve the color, a dye was made from murex seashells. It was treason for anyone other than the emperor to dress completely in purple.
• The Colosseum in Rome has over 80 entrances and can accommodate about 50,000 spectators
• Rome has a museum dedicated to pasta. The National Museum of Pasta spans 11 rooms and 2 floors!
I must say, a museum full of pasta sounds like a brilliant idea. Now, let's move on to WinStar's city of Rome. While it may not have the strong history that the real Rome does, it is very important to our casino. Below, you can see why.
• Complimentary valet is offered at the Rome entrance. That's right. I said free!
• The Global Event Center is located here. This is where concerts and other events are held. It can seat a whopping 3,500 people!
• There are 3 beautiful fountains located throughout this city.
• While there isn't a restaurant here, there is a bar.
• The Box Office is located here. This is where you can buy or pick up tickets to any of our shows.
Both cities of Rome, the one in Italy and the one located in WinStar, are extremely significant to their respective places. We are very proud of Rome and hope that everyone can enjoy all of its beauty and perks. In honor of this wonderfully charming city, grazie e arrivederci (thank you and goodbye)!

Carl Philipp Emanuel Bach
Publick Musick is delighted to bring Eastman graduate Andrus Madsen back to Rochester for a program celebrating the 300th anniversary of the birth of Carl Philipp Emanuel Bach, as well as looking ahead to his father Johann Sebastian's 330th birthday, coming up in 2015. Andrus will be performing on an early style of fortepiano similar to the ones C. P. E. Bach owned. On the program will be a selection of intimate chamber music for keyboard and strings by both Bachs, including a cello suite and a violin/continuo sonata by J. S. Bach, a sonata for fortepiano, violin and cello by C. P. E., and keyboard solos by both.
This performance will be a rare chance for Rochester area audiences to hear a fortepiano of this early type. Although from the outside indistinguishable from a harpsichord, it is a copy of a 1770s Stein fortepiano, which has been slightly modified for a sound similar to that of a late Silbermann fortepiano, the type in use at the Prussian court where C. P. E. Bach was employed, and the type his father J. S. Bach played and expressed his approval of when he visited the court in the late 1740s.
J. S. Bach's music is well known now, but in the mid 18th century Carl Philipp Emanuel was the famous Bach, who developed his own musical style combining the Baroque counterpoint he learned from his father, the galant early Classical idiom of his day, and a truly remarkable depth of personal expression that foreshadows the Romanticism of the 19th century.
Arias and Chamber Music for Lent
Sunday March 23, 2014, at 4:00 pm
Pablo Bustos, tenor
The Lenten and Easter story of death and resurrection has provided inspiration for many composers through the centuries. In this program we will present highlights from this repertoire: music of grief and remorse, but also of hope, faith, and great beauty. The program will consist of arias by Bach, Handel and Telemann, including Geduld from Bach's St. Matthew Passion, and rarely-heard gems from settings of the Brockes-Passion by Handel and Telemann. These composers were masters of the vivid and pictorial depiction of words through music, as well as of expressing the emotional content of the text. Also on the program are two of Biber's Mystery Sonatas for scordatura violin (the Agony in the Garden and the Crucifixion), which similarly use descriptive and pictorial tone-painting.
Baroque Trumpet Splendor!
We are so excited about or next concert coming up on Thursday February 20, 2014, at 7:30 pm, when we will again perform with the magnificent Italian Baroque Organ in the Fountain Court of the Memorial Art Gallery, featuring baroque trumpet virtuoso Brian Shaw and the Publick Musick strings. This concert will be offered free with gallery admission (and admission is half-price Thursday evenings). Come early and enjoy Tapas with MAX at the gallery before the concert!
Brian Shaw, baroque trumpet
This concert will be centered on music from Bologna, whose magnificent San Petronio Basilica was a major European center of musical innovation in the late 1600s. It could be argued that the concerto was born there, and certainly composers such as Torelli and Gabrielli were very important in the early development of the trumpet and cello as solo instruments. This program will also explore the early history of the trumpet as a concert instrument, starting with some of the first works published for trumpet and organ in 1638, and ending with a tantalizing taste of the virtuosic heights to which German composers of the mid-1700s took the trumpet concerto.
Fabulous Fortepiano!
Sunday May 5, 2013 at 3:00 pm
Publick Musick is very excited to bring fortepianist Mike Lee back to Rochester after his successful debut with the RPO in the summer of 2011. Lee's performances have been described as "portraying integrity, purity, complexity and truth… with balance and control that [are] breathtaking."
In this program, Lee joins Publick Musick's Artistic Directors Boel Gidholm and Christopher Haritatos in a period-instrument performance of works of Beethoven and Mozart that features the fortepiano, the early form of the piano that Mozart and the young Beethoven knew, loved, performed on, and wrote some of their finest music for. The program includes Mozart's K. 379 Sonata, which expresses an unusually wide range of moods, from serene to stormy. Mozart and Beethoven are connected by the set of delightful and virtuosic variations for piano and cello that the latter wrote on a theme from the former's beloved opera The Magic Flute. The program concludes with Beethoven's youthfully exuberant and playful G Major trio from his Op. 1, published when he was just 24 years old.
A German Baroque Easter
Saturday April 6, 2013, at 7:00 pm
Sunday April 7, at 7:00 pm
The Easter story of death and resurrection has inspired some of the greatest music ever written, providing solace and hope even in the most troubled times. Germany in the 1600s was ravaged by war and plague, but the beauty of the music from this era lifts our spirits to this day. Join us as we celebrate the Easter season with glorious music for voices and strings by Pachelbel, Schütz, Bruhns, and Buxtehude, a Biber Mystery Sonata and more--and we'll invite you to sing along in some chorales! The program will include a rare performance of Christ ist Erstanden for soprano, scordatura violin and basso continuo, attributed to Johann Pachelbel.
Joining Publick Musick for the first time will be Boston-based soprano Shari Wilson, who performs nationwide as an early music specialist.

Recreational panning for gold
"To take a pan of gravel from a creek bed and to find gold, regardless of the amount, is to share the fever that lured men to the Klondike"
This article deals mainly with "Placer Gold" which is gold that has been eroded or washed away from its host rock. The term "placer" also refers to deposits of gold bearing gravels. This is the type of gold that is of most interest to recreational prospectors.
Some interesting facts about gold :
Gold is measured in Troy ounces. A troy ounce is about ten percent heavier than Avoirdupois (or a US) ounce.
Gold is very malleable and ductile.
Gold is very heavy. Having a specific gravity of over 19 makes it and platinum the champs in the precious element division. Lead weights in at only 11 specific gravity-wise.
Gold does not tarnish or oxidize and is resistant to most naturally occurring chemicals.
Pure 24 karat gold is rarely found in nature. It is usually alloyed with copper or other precious metals such as silver or platinum.
Some of these facts will come in very handy when you are attempting to determine if the shiny gold-colored stuff in the bottom of your gold pan is really gold. For example, if you find a gold colored pebble-size lump (nugget) in the bottom of your gold pan, and you remember that gold is malleable, put the material on a flat rock and hit it with your hammer (or geology pick). If it flattens out, it is likely gold. If it shatters into pieces, its likely pyrite or arsenopyrite which are forms of "fools gold".
Specific gravity, the most important property of gold as far as panning is concerned, will be discussed later.
A few of the terms you will run across regarding gold prospecting :
Assay: to test or analyze for the quantity of gold in an ore or a mineral.
Auriferous: a term used to describe a gold-bearing substance. Auriferous gravels are those thought to be rich in gold. The chemical formula for gold is Au.
Bedrock: the rock type most common to an area which can either be exposed to view or covered with sediment.
Bench: a flat area above a stream.
Bench Deposit: mineral bearing sands or gravels in the bank of a river or stream which has been left high and dry due to the stream changing course or drying up. (sometimes referred to as "bench placers")
Black Sand: usually made up of minerals containing iron (magnetite or hematite). Black sands are heavy and will settle to the bottom of your gold pan almost as fast as gold will. They are often an indicator that gold may be present in the area.
Color: (Colour): A term used to describe small specs or flakes of gold in sands or gravel. Often used in terms of panning: "Getting any color yet"? This question is rarely answered truthfully.
Concentrates: the materials remaining in the gold pan, sluice, rocker, or dredge, after washing. Concentrates usually consist of gold, black sands, silver, and other heavy metals.
Crevice: A crack or narrow opening in rock which tends to accumulate and trap heavier materials such as gold. Crevices can often hold good quantities of gold and are good targets for recreational prospectors.
Deposits: areas where gold and other minerals are found. There are two types of placer deposits: eluvial deposits which are located close to the source lode and, alluvial deposits which are found at larger distances from the original lode.
Dust: very fine gold specs. Also called "fines".
Dry Placer: A deposit of gold found in dried up stream beds.
Fool's Gold: pyrite, arsenopyrite, or muscovite mica can all be mistaken as gold by beginners because of their "glitter". However," all that glitters is not gold". (had to get that in here somewhere).
Host Rock: any rock formations containing (in this case) gold.
Nugget: a rough lump of native gold of no particular size. Nuggets can range in weight from a few grams to over a hundred pounds.
Outcrop: the point where a mass of rock comes to the surface and is visible. The rock mass may or may not contain mineral bearing veins.
Overburden: low grade material consisting of stones, gravel, and sands lying on top of the richer gold-bearing gravels just above bedrock.
Panning: the technique of separating gold from lighter materials using a gold pan. Panning is a washing technique for recovering gold. (more about gold pans later).
Pay Streak: a concentration of gold in a placer deposit: often under water.
Placer Gold : (see above).
Placer Mining: the method of recovering gold from placer deposits usually by one or more washing techniques: panning, sluicing, etc.
Rock: a random mixture of two or more minerals.
Sniping: recovering gold-bearing sands and gravels from underwater cracks and crevices in bedrock for future panning. A gold sniffer is used to clean out underwater crevices. (You can also use a caulking gun or a grease gun with a long tube attached to one end to suck out the material from a crevice).
Tailings: waste material remaining after gold is removed. Tailings from older mining operations are often good targets for recreational prospectors since sometimes nuggets were discarded with waste stones.
Vein: a lengthy occurrence of minerals in a host rock.
How does placer gold occur ? Gold occurring in river banks or stream bottoms is a result of gold bearing host rocks being eroded over long periods of time. The host rock may be on hill tops, mountain sides, or near the river itself. During and after erosion, the gold gets washed down into streams or other low lying areas. After the gold and other materials get into the stream, a separation and transportation process occurs. Gold, being heavy, tends to get sorted out from the other materials in the stream, usually in areas where there is a slackening of the water flow. The water flow in the stream sorts the material into various strata in accordance with the different specific gravities or weight of the materials. Therefore, in a place in a stream where the water velocity slows down, the heavier materials, such as gold, will settle out while the lighter sands and gravels will continue down stream. Over a period of time, other materials will also settle out when the stream velocity slows down even more. The gold will seek the bottom in these spots because of its weight. This is a continuous process and enrichment of gold in these locations could occur year after year during spring floods or other rainy periods. If the bottom of the stream beds in these slower velocity areas is too smooth, the gold will continue to travel downstream until it gets trapped or lodged in or behind rock ledges or any other obstruction that will cause a riffle effect.
Where to look for placer gold
Often the best place to look for gold is where it has been found in the past. A visit to your local state or provincial Department of Mines library will provide lots of information on where gold has been found. Concentrate on the river and stream systems in these areas since it is these areas where the recreational prospector will want to start the search for placer gold. After you have selected a few areas for investigation, get topographic maps of the areas. In addition to showing you the location of rivers and roads, a topo map will show elevation changes along waterways as well as twists, turns, and constrictions in the waterways. This in turn will give you a good idea of where the stream flows rapidly (constrictions) and where the quiet spots are. Topo maps will also show you the location of rapids and waterfalls – places where gold may flow quickly, then settle in calmer pools at the base of rapid movement. In general, any place where there is a change in the rate of flow in a stream, river or any body of water, is a place to pan for gold. Look for streams that flow across potential or known gold-bearing areas.
1. Where water flow is quiet and gravel and sand are deposited on the stream bottom. For example: (a) The down-stream side of large rocks within the stream. (b) The inside of bends in the stream.
2. Downstream from the junction of two or more streams.
3. Along ledges or benches crossing streams where sands and gravels accumulate.
4. At the base of water falls.
5. Beach sands, particularly at the mouths of rivers.
6. Flowing streams at the foot of steep cliffs.
7. Roots and materials under trees that have been undercut and toppled over by the stream.
8. If it is summer and the water is low, look at areas behind boulders that are currently high and dry but which are in the stream during high water periods.
9. Learn to read the water and pay attention to what it is telling you. If you are an accomplished trout or salmon fisherperson, you already have most of these skills. If not, practice, test, and learn.
10. Looking for gold on the downstream side of a power dam is usually not a good idea.
If you get color in your pan in one location on a stream, it is normally good practice to continue panning upstream looking for more positive signs as you go in order to track down the source. If you suddenly run out of color going upstream, start looking for feeder brooks. Don't forget to check out the material from the roots area of uprooted trees in your quest for the source of the color. Keep an eye out for dried up stream beds in the area and wash a few pans of gravel from the most likely looking spots.
Prospecting for placer gold does not require expensive or bulky equipment. Some of the tools needed can be found around the home. The recommended minimum equipment is as follows: 1. gold pan 2. small paint brush 3. garden shovel and a spade 4. bucket 5. sniffer bottle 6. bulb snifter 7. hand lens 8. prospectors pick 9. tweezers 10. small plastic bottles with caps 11. plastic zip-lock bags or leather pouches 12. small magnet Here are some pictures of some of the items you may not recognize: These are courtesy of Keene Engineering who carries a complete line of prospecting equipment as well as gold recovery equipment for prospectors and other equipment dealing with mineral extraction and recovery. The web site for Keene Engineering is : http://www.keeneeng.com
Gold pans: unpainted steel and black or green plastic. The 12 inch gold pan is the most widely used. Before using a new gold pan, it must be cleaned thoroughly and any oil or grease should be removed. This can best be done by burning the grease out of a steel pan and by using a grease cutting detergent on a plastic pan. Don't worry if the steel pan gets a bit rusty on the inside since the extra roughness of the surface may help in trapping fine gold particles when panning.
Sniffer bottle:
The approximate cost of the pan, bulb snifter, pick, hand lens, and sniffer bottle combined should be less than $ 90.00 (prices for all of these items are given on the Keene Engineering web site).
The art of panning is best mastered by experience. The more practice and experience you have, the more gold you will recover with less effort. Panning is normally done in 6 to 10 inches of gently flowing water. The water should be flowing just fast enough to wash dissolved mud and clays out of the pan.
Stage 1: for the first few times, fill the pan to about half full of gravel using a spade or shovel. You will be using more material as you gain experience. With the pan held just under the surface of the water, stick your hand in the bottom of the pan and stir the material vigorously. This action will allow any gold to settle to the bottom and will release the mud content in the gravel to be washed out over the top of the pan.
Stage 2:(Picture Courtesy of Keene Engineering.) After all the clay is dispersed and any lumps of dirt are thoroughly broken,give the pan several vigorous shakes back and forth and from side to side. Be careful not to loose any material over the side of the pan at this stage.Now impart a gentle circular movement to the pan so that the rest of the dissolved clay, moss, and other dirt can be gently washed out over the top of the pan. Pick out the larger rocks after making sure they have been washed clean.
Stage 3:(Picture Courtesy of Keene Engineering). Repeat Stage 2 in order to get the smaller rocks to the surface and to allow the heavier materials (gold, black sands, etc.) to settle to the bottom of the pan.Now, hold the pan just under the water and tilt it slightly away from you. Swirl the water from side to side and with a slight forward tossing motion to move the lighter gravel out over the edge of the pan.Level the pan from time to time and lightly thump it's side with the palm of your hand to settle the gold to the bottom. Repeat this stage until there are only about 2 cups of heavier material, (gold and black sands, or "concentrate") remaining in the pan.
Stage 4:(Picture Courtesy of Keene Engineering). Time to wash off the black sands and other concentrates.Beginners should take the pan completely out of the water but leave about an inch of water in the pan. Tilt the pan towards you and swirl the water slowly in a circular motion. Check the pan carefully for nuggets and other pieces of gold that are easily picked out by hand or by tweezers. Do this several times making sure that you do not wash out any gold. If you are using a plastic pan, a magnet applied to the outside bottom of the pan will help separate the black sands from the gold. (black sands will most likely have a high concentration of iron oxide).
Stage 5:(Picture Courtesy of Keene Engineering). A little squirt of detergent in the pan at this stage will lower the surface tension of the water and speed up the separation process.It is a good idea to carry out stages 4 and 5 over another pan or a bucket to lessen the chance of a slip and a loss of gold back into the stream. Some panners prefer to wash all the concentrates from stage 4 into a container which they take home with them for final separation in a more controlled environment.
You can use a sniffer bottle to remove fine particles of gold from the pan containing the concentrates and water. The sniffer bottle has a tube protruding out of the cap and extending down into the bottle. The bottle is squeezed and released with the tube under water and near the gold. The gold gets sucked into the bottle and, because the tube extends into the bottle, squeezing the bottle again will squirt the water back into the pan and leave the gold in the bottle. When squeezing the bottle, always point the tip of the bottle into the pan.
CAUTION Mineral rights come under both state (or provincial) and federal jurisdiction, and for that reason there are differences in the way that the regulations are administered in different parts of the country. If there is any question of whether or not you are allowed to pan in any specific location, you should contact your state's Bureau of Land Management or Provincial Department of Mines.

The patriarch of a reality show will soon have his own Bible.
Phil Robertson, father in the A&E program Duck Dynasty, is writing his version of the Bible with son, Al.
According to Mediaite, the book will be the New King James edition with testimonials from father and son.
The testimonials will focus on five Robertson family values: 'Faith, Family, Fellowship, Forgiveness, and Freedom.'
Publication for The Duck Commander Faith and Family Bible is set for 2014 October.
Thomas Nelson's Bible Group is the book's publisher.
'We are honored and excited to be working with Phil and Al Robertson on this new Bible,' Robert Sanford, vice president and associate publisher for Thomas Nelson, said, according to SGN Scoops.
'The Robertson family's passion for the Word is infectious and the impact of their ministry is amazing,' Sanford continued. 'We see this Bible as being something people can grow with in their own personal walk with God.'
Last year the elder Robertson was in the middle of a media firestorm after a GQ interview when he compared gay sexuality to bestiality, and grouped 'the homosexual offenders' with prostitutes, swindlers, drunks and others who 'won't inherit the kingdom of God.'
He also offered an interpretation on the segregated South, maintaining blacks were 'singing and happy.'

The Lord is not slack concerning his promise, as some men count slackness; but is longsuffering to us-ward, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance.
2 Peter 3:9
There are many different views on religion. If they feel that this is their belief then they should be free to express themselves and their beliefs without repercussions from anyone. As within the LGBTI community we are harassed for doing the same thing, and I see by many of the comments made that some people don't think the Robertson's deserve the same freedom that we are fighting for. It doesn't matter if their beliefs are correct or incorrect, our country is based on freedom of expression.

veal parmigiana
- m
- mark Sep 18, 2004 12:05 PM
I am a transplanted New Yorker and miss the sicilian style Italian food of my youth. Thick cut veal Parmigiana smothered in cheese and broiled in a metal dish crispy and rich, spumoni and homemade ravioli and meatballs.so far the only authentic place I've found is in south lake tahoe Teps villa roma. Anything in san fran??????
I also am eternally searching for a good "Southern Italian-American" "red sauce" New York/Jersey style restaurant...This Brooklyn boy has not found one....but parmagiana-hopes springs eternal.
I am hoping for a positive response to your query...until then, please tell us about this restaurant in Tahoe!
re: ChowFun (derek)
I've taken to making it myself.
re: ChowFun (derek)
teps villa roma,ski run and stateline southlake tahoe,great salad bar, homemede pasta checkered table cloths great sauce,everything excellent. has other restaurants rahway nj and san diego. across street from heidi's {a great little breakfast joint also}
Trattoria la Siciliana in Berkeley makes Sicilian-style food, but I'm not sure they make anything like you describe.
Try Gasparies on Geary Street for their veal parm. The pizza is also the closest to N.Y. pizza on the west coast- just ask for it very well done.
re: Mel
if you find it please post it. I've had a heck of a time finding real italian on the west coast. An example of real italian to me means breaded (pan-fried) veal thick-cut parm sandwich with mozzarella, peppers, onions. etc. Native californians scratch their head, they've never even heard of a veal parm sandwich.
re: vegas baby
Maybe because it's not "real Italian" -- it's
"real NY-style Italian American" which is not the same thing.
re: Ruth Lafler
You may be right, but then why do californians bother offering a chicken parm sandwich but not veal? Based on your logic, a chicken parm sandwich is not real italian. Odd how everyone in california is looking for real NY-style pizza.
The tri-state area is not the only area to offer veal parm sandwiches. Go to a real canadian-italian nieghborhood in Toronto and you'll find veal sandwiches everywhere.
re: vegas baby
Native Italians woulds scratch their heads, too, unless they'd spent time in the Tri-State Area.
Victor's Pizza on Polk - makes a very nice and substantial Chicken Parmigiana...been around for 50 years. Excellent pizza too. Generally speaking a very solid and casual red-sauce spot that is very easy on the wallet. I'm from Long Island, so I know your So Italian food jones pain.
You guys are missing the big fish of veal parmigiana. Original Joe's in San Jose on the corner of San Carlos and 1st street has been making the best veal parmigiana in the Bay Area for something like 40 years. Its served large on the big plate covered evenly with a large topping of cheese and side or ravioli. Not cheap at around $21.00 but worth every penny. Every bit is a delight.
I searched the USA for a Veal Parmagiana dish equal to the one at the now defunct Sportsman's Grill in Portland, ME.
Tender veal, breaded and sauteed, then baked and served in a deep dish surrounded by the sauce and topped with the cheese until it turns brown.
I have had so many disappointing and pathetic examples served to me I had almost stopped ordering it.
One place, after 25 years, finally gets it....Roma D'Italia, one in Tustin, CA and another in Ladera ranch, CA.
While the sauce may not be quite up to East Coast standards, everything else is.
re: dbmedia
"You say to-ma-to and I say tom-a to" You say Parmagiana and I say Parmesan, recent thread:
P.S. Opening post and replies are 4 years old and none of your places are in the bay area.
I would suggest trying the veal parm at the Gold Mirror (Taraval&19th Ave.) and Joe's of Westlake (John Daly Blvd., Daly City). They are both pretty good, old-school, Ital-American versions of the dish.
Unlike much of the northeast U.S., not many Sicilians settled in NorCal. Most of the Italians that migrated here came from Northern Italy.
The veal parm, as well as the chix parm. is quite good at the Casa Orinda. They're fried chix and prime rib get all the press, but I loves me their chicken parm, or even better (but not Sicilian...) is their chicken cutlet with country gravy (ask for a biscuit with it...) Adam
Molinaris makes a Chicken Parm. and meatball sandwich.
Many of the sub shops make a meatball sub as well.
Veal isn't as hard to come by as veal that's drowning in a red gravy.
Marcello's, the previously suggested Gold Mirror, and Joe's of Westlake, Villa Romano, Tomasso's, Fio D'Italia, and US Restaurant which even has a veal sandwich at lunch.

Tuition and Fees Deduction
For tax years beginning on or after January 1, 2013, this deduction is no longer available.
For tax year 2013, North Carolina does not conform to the federal provision allowing the tuition and fees deduction. An addition is required to adjusted gross income for the amount of the taxpayer's deduction for qualified tuition and related expenses under section 222 of the Code. Likewise, a deduction is no longer available on the 2013 North Carolina income tax return for taxpayers who claim the American Opportunity, Hope, or Lifetime Learning credit on the federal return in lieu of the tuition and fees deduction.
The computation of North Carolina taxable income for individuals begins with federal adjusted gross income. The federal deduction for qualified tuition and related expenses, which had expired after tax year 2011, was extended by the American Taxpayer Relief Act of 2012 (ATRA); H.R. 8; P.L. 112-240, retroactively for tax year 2012 through 2013. A deduction of up to $4,000 is allowed on the federal return for higher education expenses.
For tax year 2012, North Carolina law conformed to the federal provision regarding the federal deduction for qualified tuition and related expenses. Therefore, those taxpayers who claim this federal deduction in computing adjusted gross income will receive the benefit of that federal deduction because adjusted gross income is the starting point on the North Carolina individual income tax return. No additional deduction may be claimed on the State return for those taxpayers who claim the federal deduction for tuition and fees.
North Carolina law allows a deduction for the amount of the taxpayer's deductions that were not allowed under the Internal Revenue Code because the taxpayer elected to claim a federal tax credit in lieu of the deduction. Therefore, if a taxpayer qualifies under Section 222 of the Internal Revenue Code to claim the 2012 deduction for higher education expenses on Line 34 of federal Form 1040, but elects to claim the American Opportunity, Hope, or Lifetime Learning credit with respect to the same expenses in lieu of the deduction, a deduction from federal taxable income is allowable on the North Carolina return for such expenses. For example, if a taxpayer qualifies for a deduction of $4,000 on the federal return but, instead, claims the American Opportunity tax credit in lieu of the tuition and fees deduction, the taxpayer is entitled to a State deduction of $4,000 on line 49 - Other Deductions From Federal Adjusted Gross Income, of the 2012 North Carolina individual income tax return.

There are two unassailable truths about postsecondary education today. First, in this demanding global economy, having a postsecondary credential is increasingly important. In fact, it's a must for anyone who hopes to maintain a middle-class lifestyle. Second: The cost of obtaining such a credential is increasingly high—so high, in fact, that far too many Americans are denied the opportunity to realize their college dreams.
This situation is potentially disastrous, not merely for tens of thousands of individual students, but for all of us as Americans. This nation faces an urgent and growing need for talent. We simply can't afford to waste the potential inherent in our citizens ― including the growing numbers of individuals from traditionally underserved groups: low-income students, first-generation students, students of color and adult learners.
Clearly, increasing the level of college-level learning is the best way to meet the nation's need for talent. That's why Lumina Foundation is committed to the effort to reach Goal 2025: By the year 2025, we want 60 percent of Americans to hold a high-quality degree, certificate or other postsecondary credential. We know, however, that this goal can't be reached unless and until the nation tackles the problem of college affordability. In fact, we are convinced the time has come to fundamentally rethink our national approach to student financial aid.
That, in brief, was the impetus for this series of papers. Last spring, Lumina sent out a request for comprehensive policy papers that address the areas of college affordability, loan repayment and federal-state-institutional partnership for student financial aid. The response to that request was robust and gratifying, and we chose to fund the publication of 15 such papers, all of them available here.
Our goal in this series is not to prescribe a particular solution or choose one course of action. Rather, we seek to generate innovative ideas for improving the ways in which postsecondary education is paid for in this country—and to stimulate further discussion on that vital topic. It's important to note, then, that each paper reflects the views and recommendations of its authors, not those of Lumina Foundation.
Still, we are struck—and quite encouraged ― by some of the common messages across these papers. For example:
That college affordability is about more than tuition and fees—that it must also incorporate real-world cost-of-living factors such as transportation, child care, food and rent. While we've known this fact for a long time, it's striking to consider given the nature of the students served by postsecondary institutions today.
That students need unbiased, timely, credible information about the cost and long-term value of college ― but that simply having such information is not sufficient to make college possible for all who need and want it. We also need to move students to act on that information.
That we must adopt a sense of shared responsibility for making college affordable. This means building a system in which all entities involved ― federal and state governments, institutions, and students and their families—do their part.
We're grateful to the authors for wrestling with these issues and delivering these messages so thoughtfully, and we at Lumina are proud to provide this platform for their work.
Again, it is our hope that these papers stimulate constructive dialogue and action that can make higher education more affordable and more equitable. To that important end, I commend these papers to you, and I urge you to join the discussion.

Brew City Bike Tours offers pedal-pushing participants an opportunity to experience the city and its bountiful beer offerings on two wheels without welding a keg to the back of a tandem bike. Tour participants will glean illuminating knowledge about Milwaukee's brewing past (it was once home to four of the world's largest breweries) while sampling some of the city's most notable microbrews. Each tour lasts approximately 3.5 hours and includes two to three samples of beer at three different stops. When logistically possible, one stop will be a tour of Lakefront Brewery, a microbrewery housed in a former Milwaukee Electric Railway and Light Co. power plant. Bike rentals are not included in this Groupon, so thirsty adventurers should bring their own bike, rent one for an extra charge ($31.68), or attempt to commandeer a wild bronco. BYOHelmet too; they're required for the tour.
Inspired by the popular television show and designed by the creators of The Great Milwaukee Race, The Amazing Milwaukee Race on Bikes sends teams of two pedaling across the city to complete activities, solve puzzles, and pass checkpoints. Along 20- and 40-mile courses crisscrossed through streets, bike lanes, and trails, competitors blur past businesses and landmarks on a sequential scavenger hunt that tests physical endurance, mental foresight, and each team's ability to communicate via bicycle horn. Clues scattered throughout the route offer guidance, but can only be earned after participants unscramble words or unravel answers to challenges. When certain clues prove to be particularly troubling, race organizers encourage teams to use surrounding resources—local passersby, telephones, or the internet—to their advantage. Although the race prohibits certain forms of transit, including private cars and quantum jumping, teams can consistently keep moving on bike, foot, or public transportation.
In 1987, Brian McInerny was careening around Italy in a four-wheel, multipassenger Surrey cycle. An avid cyclist, he fell in love with this quirky contraption that he'd never seen in the United States and he immediately sought out the manufacturer and purchased a crate of them. Wheel Fun Rentals traces its origin to this very moment, as Brian changed his surrey-distribution company into a rental and tour company that spans the nation. In spite of a general suspicion of unicycles and their ulterior motives, the company's corporate philosophy espouses "Supporting active healthy lifestyles for our customers and maintaining a healthy environment for all." Wheel Fun's fleet of rentals now includes bicycles, multipassenger Surreys, scooters, surfboards, and paddle-based watercraft. They also promote green communities by offering free rentals to Big Brothers Big Sisters.
First a teacher, and then a stay-at-home mom, Melissa Spredemann turned to indoor cycling to help her get into shape. With 12 years of experience under her belt, she decided to become certified to teach others the exercise form she loved so much. Just one year into teaching, she knew she wanted to pursue her passion full-time, so she opened Velocity Cycling Studio to share stationary cycling's benefits with others. She handpicked a team of instructors, each chosen for their commitment, enthusiasm, and innate ability to bike while not covering any distance. Melissa made the conscious decision to open a niche gym, focusing on indoor cycling and only indoor cycling. In the studio, an army of Spinner NXT bikes with SPD clips seats students as they bike through poses, drills, and movements designed to mimic outdoor riding. Thumping tunes pump up pupils as they ride, keeping them motivated to pedal to the upbeat tempos. Unlike big-box gyms and arranged friendships, Velocity Cycling Studio never requires a contract—guests simply pay per ride.
Local Motion Outfitters is located in downtown Cedarburg. We are known for excellent customer service and the quality productse. We sell bikes, cycling accessories, snowshoes, clothing and much more. We also rent snowshoes, kayaks and bikes. We're a full service bike shop as well, bring in your tune-up!
Throughout the summer, the paved paths of Frame Park welcome outdoor enthusiasts of all ages and interests, including riders seated on High Roller Fun Rentals's unique bikes and pedal carts. Two-, three-, and four-wheel vehicles transport groups down the 1.7-mile river walk?a path flanked by playground equipment, picnic areas, gardens, and volleyball courts.
For those looking to make a splash, High Roller Fun Rentals also maintains a floating fleet of creature boats, canoes, and kayaks. These inventive vessels allow groups of two, three, or four to navigate the Fox River with ease. And for added convenience, the rental center hands out maps to encourage exploration.

The prospect of yachting and sailing offered by the Marina brings Dubai full circle back to its sea-faring roots.

Important Notice : Avoiding Fraud
It's rare, but some helpful hints to watch out for with regards to fraud:
- It is important to NEVER wire funds or use/employ other fund transfer mechanisms such as western union: Always use a credit card to protect yourself against fraud. If owners pressure you into providing a deposit or refuse to accept credit cards, there is a high probability that this is a scam.
- If at all suspicious of fraud, ask to see their website, or any other literature they can provide or send to you. Ask them for contact details for guests who have previously stayed on their property insisting on telephone numbers. Be suspicious of emails that originate from free email services (yahoo, hotmail, gmail, etc)
- Research the property thoroughly on the internet to see if there is any history or mention of scams associated with the property.

Interview With Mike Horton: Part Four
This is the fourth and final part of my interview with Mike Horton on the nature of the gospel and sanctification. You can (and should) read Part One , Two, and Three.
A friend of mine recently wrote this to me. How would you respond? "I've not heard many of the folks who focus on the indicative be very specific about how they handle the imperative in preaching and counseling. They keep saying, "Of course we believe in the imperatives…" Then what? It think it would be very instructive to have some "indicative folks" post specifics on how they preach and counsel with the imperatives. What is the role of the imperative in preaching, counseling, personal sanctification, etc.? What does it actually "look like" in real life ministry to build the imperatives on the indicative?
I wonder if this is quite fair. Speaking in my own defense, I've written a book on the application of the Ten Commandments to us today and I can't think of any book I've written on the gospel that doesn't include the claims of God's law as well. When you're trying to shift the focus, it's easy for people to think that this is all you talk about in the pulpit or in counseling. However, when preaching through the whole of Scriptures—which full-time pastors are privileged to do—there's no freedom to cherry-pick your favorite verses and emphases. To be sure, "the sacred writings…make you wise for salvation through faith in Christ" (2 Tim 3:15). Nevertheless, "All Scripture is breathed out by God and profitable for teaching, for reproof, for correction, and for training in righteousness, that the man of God may be competent, equipped for every good work" (v 16). Containing both indicatives and imperatives, Scripture itself gives us what we need; our job is to make sure that we distinguish these and recall which does the saving work.
A while ago, our family was reading through Proverbs. What wonderful wisdom! I didn't try to turn them into parables of the gospel. They were examples of the goodness of God's law that is sweeter than honey from the honeycomb. And yet, many parallels (even nearly identical proverbs) can be found in non-biblical wisdom literature. We need wisdom for daily life. And yet, we must never confuse this with the gospel. Christ doesn't just add a little secret wisdom to the storehouse; he "became to us wisdom from God, righteousness and sanctification and redemption…" (1 Cor 1:30). The main point of Scripture—the height of true wisdom—"is Christ, in whom are hidden all the treasures of wisdom and knowledge" (Col 2:3). To say that is not to negate the more mundane forms of wisdom that we find in Scripture—or even among the world's wiser sorts. It's just to say that if the gospel isn't true—and central—then none of that really matters at the end of the day. "Eat, drink, and be merry, for tomorrow we die."
One of the concerns that's been raised is that while many people seem to be reveling in the indicatives of the gospel (what Jesus has done) we are in danger of giving short-shrift to the imperatives (what we must do). I've argued that if someone is giving short-shrift to the necessity of obeying biblical imperatives, it's because they are not glorying in the indicatives of the gospel. Their problem is not first and foremost that they aren't giving full-throat to the imperatives. It's that they're not giving full-throat to the indicatives–that disobedience happens not when we think too much of grace, but when we think too little of grace. Do you agree?
Again, think of how Paul answers that in Romans 6. He doesn't respond to the antinomian charge by saying, "Hey, the other side of this—just for balance—is that if you don't turn over a new leaf, everything I've just said doesn't apply to you." Rather, he says, "Wait, there's more yet to the gospel—more indicatives that you need to understand and embrace as applying to you."
The Church of Corinth was a mess and Paul's epistles were basically disciplinary. Nevertheless, before he goes to the specific charges of violating the law, he reminds them who they are in Christ. "Don't you remember that while I was with you I preached nothing but Christ and him crucified?" Perhaps some of Paul's agitators in Galatia would have replied, "Yes, indeed, and don't you think that may have been part of the problem, Paul? After all, if you had preached more imperatives, they wouldn't be in this mess." Paul always believed that deeper immersion into the gospel is essential for the health of believers and churches.
At the same time, he never failed to follow up the indicatives with very clear, practical, and urgent imperatives. In my view, many evangelical churches—including many who claim to be Reformed—are very undisciplined. We mirror our democratic, individualistic and egalitarian society. It's not just sound doctrine, but sound structures of biblical government, worship, catechesis, and nurture that will help recover a solid vision for the growth of the body.
While I believe that it's generally true that those who are forgiven much love much and that those who are in view of God's mercies will present their bodies as a living sacrifice, we have to recognize the deep depravity in our own hearts even as regenerate believers. Often I find myself reveling in the glories of the gospel for my own delight, oblivious to the "reasonable service" that it yields toward my neighbor. I can be writing a paragraph on the wonders of grace while I snap at my wife or children for interrupting me. We do need Christ to remind us, by his Spirit, through his law, that the gospel doesn't stop at our own personal security and welfare, but drives us out to our neighbors in love and service. A good Shepherd guides his sheep. A good Father rebukes those whom he loves. We need to hear the very specific and uncomfortable rebukes of the law as well as the tender comfort of the gospel.
We always need the gospel wind in our sails and the directional equipment on our dashboard. Without the former, we're dead in the water; without the latter, we're blown all over the map.
I've argued that there is one primary enemy of the gospel—legalism—but it comes in two forms. Some people avoid the gospel and try to "save" themselves by keeping the rules, doing what they're told, maintaining the standards, and so on (I call this "front-door legalism"). Other people avoid the gospel and try to "save" themselves by breaking the rules, doing whatever they want, developing their own autonomous standards, and so on (I call this "back-door legalism"). In other words, there are two "laws" we can choose to live by other than Christ: the law which says "I can find freedom and fullness of life if I keep the rules" or the law which says "I can find freedom and fullness of life if I break the rules." Either way you're still trying to "save" yourself—which means both are legalistic because both are self-salvation projects. So that, what some call license is just another form of legalism. How would you respond?
Yes, that's a great point, Tullian, and I hope everybody takes it to heart in this conversation. "Make a rule" or "break a rule" really belong to the same passion for autonomy (self-rule). We want to remain in control of our lives and our destiny, so the only choice is whether we'll conquer the mountain by asceticism or by license. However, when Christ comes to us, he does not come to improve the old self, to bouy its self-confidence and encourage its pride. Christ comes to kill us in order to make us alive in him, as new creatures. The gospel is the answer both to the guilt and the tyranny of sin and other lords that cannot liberate but hold us to their breast in a death grip.
Thank-you, Mike, for taking the time to interact with me on these crucial topics. We are all grateful for your life and ministry.

NASHVILLE, Tenn. (AP) -- A proposal that would require roll-your-own cigarette retailers to pay a licensing fee and tax and adhere to certain restrictions has passed the Senate.
The measure sponsored by Republican Sen. Jack Johnson of Franklin was approved 25-5 on Wednesday.
Pipe tobacco, a popular product of roll-your-own retailers, is not listed on the state attorney general's directory of tobaccos. The proposal would require tobacco the retailers use in their machines to come from the directory.
It would also require the retailers to pay a cigarette tax and an annual $500 licensing fee for each roll-your-own machine used.
Businesses would have until July 1, 2013, to meet the requirements.
The companion bill is scheduled for a vote in the House Finance Subcommittee.

Expensive furnishings or luxurious bath linen does not serve the true purpose of a bathroom. What makes a bathroom serve its primary purpose is its fittings and hardware. Other accessories simply complement the bathroom fittings and ambience.
Showers may be fixed on the walls or a flexible hand shower. When a shower is required for the shower cubicle or enclosure, you can choose a fixed one. Look for features such as pressure and temperature control dials and buttons. Commonly used materials are steel, brass, polished chrome and synthetic marble.
Sinks are indispensable in a bathroom as they serve different purposes. Normally, a well-designed sink and faucet plays a perfect combination in enhancing the good looks of the bathroom.
There are innumerable varieties and designs of faucets available to suit the sink and tub size. Lightweight faucets have plastic as a primary component. Faucets made of materials such as brass, porcelain and ceramic are usually preferred. Sink and faucet should be of the same finish. If they vary in shades, then at least try to blend them with the tiles used in bathroom. The faucet used should not hinder the reflection in the mirror or task lighting.
Choose from elongated toilets, wall-mount toilets, one-piece toilets, corner toilets and round front toilets. Comfort is the prime factor to be taken into consideration. Then consider elements such as bathroom space, flushing levers and toilet seat.
Bath and shower mixer taps are used to mix hot and cold water at a sink or a bath tub. They should have easy temperature and pressure control system and simple to use control levers.

HMS Dauntless off the coast of Great Yarmouth. Viewed from the Caister Lifeboat. Picture: James Bass
Lauren Rogers
Friday, February 8, 2013
HMS Dauntless has arrived at her adopted home port for a weekend of events.
The state of the art Type 45 destroyer sailed into Great Yarmouth's outer harbour at around 9am. It is the second time she has visited the town and excitement has been building for weeks about her visit.
Dauntless was greeted on the waves by Caister Lifeboat around three miles from the coast and was steered into her berth with help from a tug boat.
Paul Garrod, chairman of Caister Lifeboat - an independent service that is supported by Dauntless' crew - said it was a "great honour" to welcome the warship into Yarmouth.
"We got some waves from the bridge and we waved back frantically," he added.
Members of the media were welcomed on board after she had docked to interview her new commanding officer Adrian Fryer, and look around her state of the art weaponry and facilities.
Later this afternoon the crew will host the emergency services for a resilience capability demonstration, followed by visits from Lowestoft College and East Norfolk College.
The day will be rounded off with an evening on board reception for invited guests, including town dignitaries and crew from Caister Lifeboat.
Tomorrow the ship's company will head out into the community to take part in charity activities and meet with residents.
They will then welcome further visitors on board including Yarmouth sea cadets, members of the Great Yarmouth and Waveney Special Olympians and students from the Royal Hospital School in Holbrook, near Ipswich, which is one of the ship's affiliated organisations.
Sunday is expected to bring a sea of visitors into Yarmouth when the crew take part in a parade through the town and a special service in held in the Minster.
Maritime enthusiasts will also get the chance to step on board the warship and see her up close, when she lowers her gang plank from 10am - 3pm.
Mr Garrod said: "I think the whole town is behind the weekend and let's hope there's a lot of people who come out on Sunday."

I went onboard for a look around and it was very interesting. Judging by the number of cars parked around Eastport offices it appeared that the open day was going to be very busy and popular.

S.O.T.V should be good. If I was about I would try to get a call round.

Seems odd that the Navy would berth in a harbour which wasn't "fit for purpose" according to some "experts" on here. Surely they couldn't be wrong could they?
