Metallurgical Laboratory
The Metallurgical Laboratory or "Met Lab" was part of the World War II–era Manhattan Project - the U.S. program to develop the atomic bomb. It was headed by Arthur H. Compton, a Nobel Prize laureate and Professor of Physics at the University of Chicago. The Lab produced the first controlled nuclear chain reaction in Chicago Pile-1, built at the University's old football stadium, Stagg Field.
In July 1939, at the urging of nuclear physicists Eugene Wigner and Leó Szilárd, Albert Einstein sent a letter to U.S. President Franklin D. Roosevelt, explaining the military potential of nuclear fission and calling for the United States to develop atomic weapons before Nazi Germany.
In response, Roosevelt appointed a committee to direct the research. Early funding was meager, but in 1940, scientists at Columbia University and the University of California demonstrated the weapons potential of the isotope uranium-235 and the newly discovered element plutonium.
After the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor on 7 December 1941, development of the atomic bomb became urgent. Compton proposed consolidation of atomic research at University of Chicago, and also an ambitious schedule that called for producing the first atomic bomb in January 1945, a goal that was missed by only six months. Both proposals were adopted.
Compton's new operation was given the "cover" name of the "Metallurgical Laboratory". The Lab's tasks were to produce chain-reacting "piles" of uranium to convert to plutonium, find ways to separate the plutonium from the uranium, and to design a bomb. Most of the Lab's offices were in the University's Eckhart Hall; Szilard later wrote that "the morale of the scientists could almost be plotted in a graph by counting the number of lights burning after dinner in the offices at Eckhart Hall."[1]
The notable scientists assembled at the Lab included, besides Compton and Szilard, another Nobel laureate, Enrico Fermi, and future laureates Wigner and Glenn T. Seaborg.
In August 1942, Seaborg's team chemically isolated the first weighable amount of plutonium from uranium irradiated in cyclotrons.
Fermi worked on the design and construction of a "pile" of uranium and graphite that could be brought to critical mass in a controlled, self-sustaining nuclear reaction.
Fermi's team built Chicago Pile-1 (CP-1) at the University's abandoned football stadium. They demonstrated it on 2 December 1942. (It was the world's first "nuclear reactor," although that term was not used until 1952.) The location is commemorated as the Site of the First Self-Sustaining Nuclear Reaction, a National Historic Landmark, featuring a sculpture by Henry Moore.
Later activities[edit]
Once the Lab had demonstrated the key elements of the atomic bomb, it was now necessary to implement the Lab's discoveries on an industrial scale, and to build and test the bomb.
This further work was done at Oak Ridge, Tennessee, Hanford, Washington, and Los Alamos, New Mexico. Many of the top scientists left the Lab for these other sites.
In 1943, CP-1 was dismantled, and rebuilt as CP-2, in Red Gate Woods, a forest preserve outside the city. Because of the location, the site was code-named "Argonne", after the Forest of Argonne in France, where U.S. troops fought in World War I.
The Lab continued to do important atomic research, both on the campus of the University and at "Argonne", which became the Lab's primary site. On 1 July 1946, the Lab became Argonne National Laboratory.

We've done more than our duty to inform readers of Friday's album release show for The Fatty Acids at Pabst Theater. But it's worth noting the show will play host to another great Milwaukee indie rock act celebrating a new release, as Faux Fir will issue cassette single Failure Prose.
The Pabst show lineup—which also includes opener Sat. Nite Duets—is a well-thought gesture that recreates a MIAD café show that was the first Faux Fir full band outing, one of The Fatty Acids' first public appearances and also featured Sat. Nite predecessor Two Kids Get New Books. The slingers of singalongable synth-pop originally set out to have the evening be a duel full-length record release concert. However, vinyl-pressing setbacks forced Faux Fir to push its proper record release to October. Instead, Faux Fir opted to put out a tape with songs from the upcoming record and remixes of album cuts to be.
"Failure Prose" is an arena-ready side A opener that beams with '80s-esque keyboard effects and the unfathomably high vocals of Ryan Rupprecht to which fans of Faux Fir and Rupees have come to respect. The catchy "Astrochondria" chases to powerhouse title track. While not matching the affable intensity of its predecessor, it keeps toes tapping by way of driving snare thuds and infectious organ that eventually give way an atmospheric song-ending interlude—no doubt the work of producer Ryan Weber (Eric & Magill).
Side B serves to tease the forthcoming full-length with remixes of yet-unreleased Faux Fir songs "Nu-Age" and "Pizza Hut" by Milwaukee's Sam Bardins (aka Bardeenz) and Babes Mud House. Of the pair, "Nu-Age" takes the cake with a functional dismantling of Faux Fir's bustling, effect-heavy sound into a breezy ballad that features xylophone and toy squeaks. Time will only tell exactly how much Bardeenz's mix differs from the album version. This version of "Pizza Hut" sounds like a filler song on a La Bouche album, so hopefully the original shines a bit brighter.
It's unfortunate Faux Fir's biggest show to date couldn't be its album release show too. But if the band's anthemic five-song (well, four songs and a musical tracklisting intro) cassette is any indication, it'll be worth waiting until next month to hear more.

The muscles at the front of your abdomen comprise the internal and external obliques, transversus and rectus abdominus. Core stability training emphasises the importance of activating both sets of obliques and the travsversus abdominus which, in combination with the gluteal and lower back muscles, can act as an effective support or 'brace' to the lumbar spine when a movement is being performed. Current thinking amongst researchers is that regular training of these muscles can play an important role in the prevention of incidence, and reoccurrence, of lower back pain. Moreover, core stability training can enhance the performance of people of all ages and their abilities to carry out both everyday tasks and more athletic endeavours. The role of neuromuscular electrical stimulation (NMES), as applied through the use of Slendertone System Abs Female, produces safe and effective contractions of the muscles of the anterior abdomen. This has been well established in clinical research and can make an important contribution to an effective core strengthening programme.
Slendertone Abs Female is our most advanced abs toning belt for women providing toned and stronger abs from just 4 weeks. Use 5 times a week for 4 weeks to achieve firmer and more toned abs. You can tone from home or on the go as part of normal fitness routine and healthy lifestyle.

Marital property is real or personal property acquired during the course of the parties' marriage through the use of marital funds, or through the sale of additional marital property. Real property is real estate; personal property is tangible property, such as automobiles, boats, furniture, and household items.
Any property that is given to either spouse as a gift from a third party (not the other spouse) during the marriage, as well as any property inherited by either spouse during the marriage, is considered to be non-marital, unless the receiving spouse does something to indicate that he or she wishes for the property to be shared with the other spouse, such as deeding real property in both spouses' names, which would turn it into marital property.
Many states have community property laws, which provide that spouses equally divide any and all property acquired by both spouses, with a few exceptions, during their marriage. South Carolina is an equitable division state; that is, the Family Court Judge hears the evidence from both spouses and then determines what he or she thinks is a fair and equitable division of marital property.
The Judge considers a number of factors in making the decision. It does not matter in whose name property is titled in South Carolina, so long as the property was purchased during the marriage, and that marital funds were used, at least in part, to purchase the property. In dividing the equity interest in the marital home, for example, the Judge will consider both spouses' contributions to the home, whether financial or in-kind, through "sweat equity." A temporary order may divide property completely differently than a Final Order.

HARTFORD —On Tuesday morning, August 6, state officials involved in the investigation into the 12/14 shootings at Sandy Hook Elementary School met to discuss the progress of the state police probe and consider when a public version of the ongoing investigation's findings would be disclosed.
Mark Ojakian, who is the governor's chief of staff, met with Stephen J. Sedensky III, who is the State's Attorney for the Judicial District of Danbury, and with Chief State's Attorney Kevin T. Kane.
Governor To Be Briefed On 12/14 Probe StatusThursday, August 1, 2013
Governor Dannel P. Malloy is expected to get an update sometime next week from officials involved in the ongoing state police probe into the 12/14 shootings at Sandy Hook Elementary School, at which time he may learn when the report will be released publicly.
The governor would receive that update from the state's attorney office, which is overseeing the state police investigation into the deaths of 20 first-graders and six educators at the school, according to Andrew Doba, a spokesman for the governor.
Malloy: Preliminary 12/14 Details To Be Released By March 29Thursday, March 21, 2013
Following the release of confidential 12/14 investigation material after a New Orleans law enforcement symposium session featuring a Connecticut State Police official, Governor Dannel Malloy announced that some preliminary information regarding the case will be released on or before March 29.

ABC 15 helicopter pilot Craig Smith, who died Friday in a midair collision, covered breaking stories for the ABC15 Daybreak Team.
According to various Internet sources, Smith has worked at ABC 15 News since September 2005 and began his broadcast career in 1987 working as part of the AAA Safety Copter program in Detroit as a traffic reporter.
He began taking flying lessons and earned his commercial helicopter rating in December 1990.
Smith's helicopter pilot career began in 1991 working for McMahon Helicopters. His flying duties included flying cargo for GM, Ford and DaimlerChrysler, flying human organs and the transplant team of doctors for the University of Michigan and Henry Ford hospitals, and producing aerial videos for TV and other commercial usage.
His interest in both broadcasting and helicopters led him to a pilot/reporter opportunity with WXYZ (Channel 7) in Detroit. In addition to his duties at Channel 7, Craig provided special event coverage for WJR Radio from Jetcopter 760, and covered such events as race weekends at the Michigan Speedway and the Woodward Dream Cruise.
Craig studied criminology and communications at Washtenaw and Oakland community colleges and Oakland University in Michigan. While Craig isn't flying Chopper15, he enjoys his antique cars and playing guitar in his rock band, Crosstown Traffic, which plays for charity.
Molly "The Flying Dog" flies with Smith in the mornings and but was not aboard the aircraft during the collision.
Molly, a west highland white terrier, was fully trained by Vladae "The Russian Dog Wizard" to ride in Chopper15 with Smith. She sits inside a small, restrained portable pet carrier.

Hi I'm Matt Shearer, delivery manager for Future Media News. I manage the delivery of the News Product and I also lead on BBC News Labs.
BBC News Labs is an innovation project which was started during 2012 to help us harness the BBC's wider expertise to explore future opportunities.
Generally speaking BBC News believes in allowing creative technologists to innovate and influence the direction of the News product.
For example the delivery of BBC News' responsive design mobile service started in 2011 when we made space for a multidiscipline project to explore responsive design opportunities for BBC News.
With this in mind the BBC News team setup News Labs to explore linked data technologies.
The BBC has been making use of linked data technologies in its internal content production systems since 2011.
As explained by Jem Rayfield this enabled the publishing of news aggregation pages 'per athlete', 'per sport' and 'per event' for the 2012 Olympics – something that would not have been possible with hand-curated content management.
Linked data is being rolled out on BBC News from early 2013 to enrich the connections between BBC News stories, content assets, the wider BBC website and the World Wide Web.
BBC News Lab format
We framed each challenge/opportunity for the News Lab in terms of a clear 'problem space' (as opposed to a set of requirements that may limit options) supported by research findings, audience needs, market needs, technology opportunities and framed with the BBC News Strategy.
The Lab participants cover multiple disciplines including editorial staff, journalists, software engineers, developers, designers and more from across BBC News and BBC Future Media and made sure each team had a broad discipline coverage.
A two week timeframe was chosen in order to support a good run at the 'problem space' and give time to incorporate the different expertises. This wasn't just a case of hacking on top of APIs - we wanted to ensure we were incorporating the wider cross-disciplinary expertise.
In order to keep the activities rooted in reality and to minimise theoretical discussions we stipulated that the exploration should include prototyping from day two onwards.
The 'Problem Spaces'
After producing a long list of possible 'problem spaces' we prioritised four areas to explore:
So the question was 'how might we tag the BBC News archive with linked data and expose this data source for prototyping?'
The linked data prototyping platform – The News Juicer
In order to productively explore the linked data 'problem spaces' we quickly realised we needed a platform to give us BBC News in a linked data context.
Over the course of six weeks we set up a prototyping platform on the cloud codenamed The News Juicer, as it 'juiced' the News archive for the key linked data concepts.
As new BBC News articles are published to the BBC website they are placed in a queue on the News Juicer for semantic annotation.
This job is performed as series of background processes using a combination of a natural language processing pipeline and human input for verification of results.
The first step in the pipeline is to extract 'named entities' from the raw article text. These are occurrences of proper nouns such as 'London' or 'Mr Cameron' that we can later map to DBpedia concepts.
In order to extract these entities we make use of the Core NLP framework developed by Stanford University. This suite includes a statistical model that has been trained to recognise mentions of people, locations and places within news articles based on the Brown Corpus.
The named entity recognition stage leaves us with a list of candidate terms that can be matched to DBpedia concepts.
In many cases there is a direct mapping between the extracted entity and the DBpedia identifier. For example, the extracted entity 'London (Place)' maps directly to http://dbpedia.org/resource/London.
More interesting cases arise where the entity text may not match the context it is found in. For example many football articles return results such as 'Liverpool (Organisation)' referring to Liverpool FC rather than the city of Liverpool.
In these cases we can use the DBpedia Lookup Service to perform a scoped query on the entity text.
Much more difficult to resolve are truly ambiguous entities such as 'Newport (Place)' which could refer to any of the Newports around the UK and worldwide.
The system currently uses a very naive approach using the DBpedia concept with the closest matching identifier. At the moment this means all Newport's found in BBC News articles are mapped to the DBpedia concept http://dbpedia.org/resource/Newport which is the city of Newport in Wales.
Searching for news articles using an additive filter
We are currently working to add a more advanced disambiguation stage building on BBC R&D's recent work on Topic Based Vector Space Models.
In most cases the DBpedia concepts automatically matched by the preceding steps are indeed correct and the process allows us to annotate huge archives of text very quickly and cheaply.
However the process is not perfect so the News Juicer system adds an element of human verification where editorial staff can quickly correct mistakes.
Finally, the concepts are pushed into the triplestore as the appropriate RDF so that the data is available for SPARQL querying.
The user interface which allows us to subsequently add/edit/delete the tagging is a Ruby-on-Rails app built on top of PostgreSQL. It allows a user to search for news articles using an additive filter as shown in the screenshot above.
Selecting a news article shows the article and allows the user to moderate and edit the semantic annotations that have been applied through automation. It also allows the user to manually associate the article with one or more news events.
As annotations are applied in the User Interface (UI) the triplestore is updated with the appropriate RDF including the DBpedia or event resource and the relationship between the article and the resource.
The News Juicer was deployed on the cloud in three logical tiers - a data tier, a service tier and a view tier - all hosted on a single large virtual server instance. The choice of technologies was governed by the need for low cost and rapid deployment.
The data tier comprises:
The relational data service and view tier is a Ruby-on-Rails application providing:
The semantic service API tier is a RESTful Java web application that allows a consumer to:
Why we used DBpedia
DBpedia is a machine readable RDF extraction of Wikipedia primarily sourced from Wikipedia infoboxes. In finding a linked data set to prototype with we needed something that:
DBpedia met these requirements and it proved to be an excellent prototyping dataset. It allowed for extensive use of automated tagging, geospatial based queries and, through its underlying ontology, the ability to create rich news aggregations by traversing the graph of people, places, organisations and their relationships.
Semantic APIs to support Rapid Prototyping
News Labs intends to exploit semantics to rapidly prototype as well as to educate BBC developers about semantic technologies and RDF. It was therefore important that APIs were constructed that could meet these goals.
At the same time exposing an open SPARQL endpoint would be inherently risky. A consumer could potentially run a query that could use all available resources on the triple store, thus block other Labs teams.
It was also useful to let developers consume JSON representations of news articles to aid rapid web application development.
Accordingly custom web service APIs were built (in Java) that exposed the full power of SPARQL to semantically aggregate news content while ensuring that dangerous queries could not be run and returning news article JSON to the caller.
The Benefits of the News Labs approach
Many prototypes were created and due to the preparation that went into the 'problems spaces' combined with the multidiscipline prototyping team these prototypes had the benefit of a real pressure cooker development environment: lots of new concepts, refinements and judgement decisions were being made very quickly and in the right direction.
This is in stark contrast to the usual cumulative lag when we need to pass ideas and specifications between disciplines, teams and organisational units.
Also the requirement to use 'real data' saved us time on theoretical explorations or erroneous assumptions.
The developers that took part in the Labs had a hands-on and practical training opportunity with semantic data technologies.
All disciplines involved learnt a great deal about what was practically possible with linked data and this dispelled a lot of buzz and mystery. It also provided a practical opportunity for all disciplines to try out the technologies, experiment and build prototypes without risk and many participants found this to be beneficial.
At the time of writing The News Juicer has extracted concepts from 62,123 BBC News articles, mainly from the English-speaking service but also includes 2,500 articles from BBC Mundo, the Spanish-speaking service.
This is a tremendous legacy for future prototyping and proof of concept work and provides a safe environment to experiment with new data models and ontologies.
Outcome of the News Labs in 2012
Here is some information we can share publicly - this is a summary and by no means exhaustive.This prototype explored the relationship between the news stories and the locations they mentioned

BBC News Labs - What's next?
The platform, tools and APIs we developed for BBC News Labs will be in use for the foreseeable future in BBC's Connected Studio and also for rapid prototyping to support BBC News development work.
We plan to run further News Labs and will be using the News Juicer to explore News data models and product concepts as we develop them.

@Matt Shearer: Thanks very much for an interesting post.
I think one useful outcome is that where BBC News goes, others will follow.
It's a tiny shame that we only get "Prototype Screenshots" and not some actual content to look at.
>The BBC has been making use of linked data technologies in its internal content production systems since 2011.
Think you are under-selling yourself a bit here. What about the linked data in the 2010 world cup for example? http://www.bbc.co.uk/blogs/bbcinternet/2010/07/the_world_cup_and_a_call_to_ac.html
@Matt great stuff!
It's always very interesting to read about what BBC News does, and it has been taken as inspiration/guideline at other media companies I've worked for.

Bishop Kenneth L. Carder: Pointing to the Kingdom
On a sunny afternoon in the early summer of 1946, a red-headed 5-year-old played with his brothers and sister in the yard of a big white farm house, high on a hill in the mountains of east Tennessee. While their mother worked inside, cleaning and ironing for the farm owner's wife, the children were Gene Autry and Roy Rogers, American GI's storming the beach at Normandy, and sometimes even both at once.
But that day the farm owner—who provided a two-room house and a share of the crops in exchange for their family's
The 5-year-old froze, face flushing scarlet as he remembered being caught that morning on the roof of a farm shed. "Get
Now, lurching into the yard, the man stopped, his eyes zeroing in on the boy and widening in recognition.
"You're the one who was on top of my building," he sputtered. "I'll teach you to respect me and my property." The man
"I'm going to drown you!" he said. Hearing the children's cries, their mama and the man's wife raced outside into the yard
Sixty years later, the red is gone as is most of the hair, but Kenneth L. Carder remembers that moment as if it just happened.
Like Augustine's tale of the stolen pears, it's a story from his youth, the first of two stories, actually, that were pivotal moments in his spiritual journey. As the one from Hippo could have told you, bishops can grow from the rockiest of soil.
"I tell that story because the only other place I felt that same sense of terror was in church," says Carder, whose earliest years were spent attending a fundamentalist, "hell fire and damnation," independent Baptist church. "That's what we were told every week—that the end of the world would happen any second, and that God held you sus-pended over the abyss, like I was held over that rain bar-rel, and would destroy you at any moment."
Although the drunken farm owner, after a brief standoff with his wife, released the boy unharmed, it was another five years before Carder escaped his fundamentalist church. After his family moved into a small house in a nearby community, Carder, then 10, persuaded his parents to let him go to the nearby Methodist church. That first Sunday, he walked alone to the church and was directed to the big room where children's Sunday School met.
He knew the teacher, Mrs. Mahoney, by reputation. She had a disabled child, a daughter with mental retarda-tion who lived at home and was rarely seen. He walked slowly to the door, not knowing what to expect.
"Well, we got us a visitor today," Mrs. Mahoney said. "Come on in." And then she hugged him. It was some-thing he had never experienced before in church.
Her lesson that day was the parable of the good shep-herd who goes out in search of the one lost sheep. As she taught, she occasionally pointed on the wall to a faded lithograph of the good shepherd with a lamb draped around his shoulders. "Now he's picked that lamb up, and he's going to carry it back and put it in the fold with the rest of the sheep," Mrs. Mahoney explained.
"My parents and grandparents loved me greatly," Carder says. "But until then I had never made the connection that God was like family. To me, God was like that landlord who held me over the barrel. For the first time, I saw that God is the one who loves, welcomes and seeks to protect, rather than the one who is out to destroy and punish. That morning, I was the lost lamb and Mrs. Mahoney became the Good Shepherd. I didn't miss a Sunday after that."
Ever since, Carder has worked for the God he met that first Sunday with Mrs. Mahoney, and against the other.
Now, after recuperating from a heart attack that prompted him to step down from the active episcopacy, Carder has come to Duke to continue his work, this time as professor of the practice of pastoral formation and director of "Pulpit & Pew: The Duke Center for Excellence in Ministry."
"We want to help get the gifts of scholarship back into the life of the church and the pastoral gifts of the church into the seminary," says Carder. "I hope we can strength-en this partnership for the mutual benefit of God's mis-sion in the world."
According to those who have worked with him, it is a task ideally suited for Carder. After more than 30 years experience as a pastor in churches small and large, and 12 years as a bishop, he brings a wealth of gifts. He is partic-ularly adept at bridging the gap between theory and prac-tice, says David Lowes Watson G'78 of Nashville, Tenn.
"He takes deep theological principles and makes them concrete," says Watson.
The director of the Office of Pastoral Formation for the Nashville Area of the UMC, Watson says Carder is a master at holding in creative theological tension the harsh reality of the world as it is and the world as God intended for it to be, the church as it is and the Kingdom of God that Jesus came to announce.
"Bishop Carder is always pointing us to the horizon, to the world as it one day will be," says Watson. "The best way to summarize his theology is to quote the Lord's Prayer: 'Thy Kingdom come, thy will be done, on earth as it is in heaven.'"
Throughout his essays and sermons and even in conversation, Carder describes the church as "a sign, a foretaste, and an instrument of God's new creation." It's a succinct phrase that packs a lot of theological weight, at once describing the church as something that is here now, yet always pointing to the Kingdom.
"Time and again he is reminding us of this in ways that seem to reveal the extent to which we have or have not been faithful," says Watson.
Methodists in Tennessee and Mississippi know what Watson is talking about. For them—indeed for many Methodists anywhere in the U.S.—Carder is a bishop like few they have ever seen. Described by the Nashville Tennessean as "a compass for congregations to steer by" and "true spiritual leader," he challenged churchgoers to reach out beyond their congregations, to step out in mis-sion to the poor and marginalized, to those in prisons, nursing homes, and housing projects. Rather than press-ing pastors for numbers on membership and giving dur-ing annual reviews, Carder asked them to describe the signs of God's presence in their ministry.
In both states, Carder spoke out against capital punish-ment, prompting a flood of threats and opposition from within and outside the church. Inspired by the reconciliation effort in South Africa, he organized a "Journey of Remembrance and Reconciliation" and held cabinet meetings at the sites of civil rights battlegrounds in Mississippi in the 1960s.
Both Mississippi and her people were made better by Carder's tenure as bishop, says the Rev. Vicki Sizemore-Tandy D'78.
"I know it sounds hokey, but it's true," she says. "He made us better. Many people changed just by his example."
Carder appointed Sizemore-Tandy as the state's first African-American woman district superintendent and assigned her to the Senatobia District, in the heart of the Delta.
The reaction in the churches, she says, was "Are you kidding?"
"But Bishop Carder approaches things in such a wonder-ful way, people trusted him not to do anything destructive to the church. Race is hard to overcome in the Delta, but by putting me in this area, he made great strides."
Soft spoken and gentle, solicitous to a fault, Carder is occasionally underestimated as a pushover, but don't be fooled, warns the Rev. Karl Netting D'71, a former associate pastor under Carder at Concord United Methodist Church in Knoxville, Tenn.
"He's one of the best street fighters I've ever met," says Netting, now a hospice chaplain in Richmond, Va. "To serve churches today, you have to have a clear vision of where you want to go and a lot of spine to back it up. Ken has both."
In December 2001, for example, only a few months after he took office in Mississippi, Carder joined Catholic and Episcopal colleagues in Jackson in calling for the adoption of a new state flag, one without the Confederate battle flag. As a Southerner, Carder knew how controver-sial changing the flag would be. As a new arrival to the state, he could have easily taken a pass on the issue.
But he didn't.
"I wouldn't have chosen to deal with it as one of my first actions as bishop, but we don't always choose the time of issues," he says. "I felt it was an important issue at a critical time in Mississippi history, a teaching moment, whether it won or lost."
While some dismissed Carder as a "liberal social activist," intent upon enacting his own political agenda, nothing could have been further from the truth, he says. It was about God, and about God's Kingdom.
"Opposition to the death penalty and ministry to thepoor are often seen as political agendas, but I never setout with a political agenda," says Carder.
In his years as a student at Wesley Seminary in Washington, D.C., Carder learned that there isn't a per-sonal Gospel and a social Gospel. There is just a Gospel, with personal and social dimensions.
Ironically, much of Carder's theological vision—certainly its clarity—comes from those fundamentalist preachers who so terrified him when he was young. Even in those years, he says, prevenient grace was at work, leaving him with two abiding gifts: a deep respect for the Bible and an appreciation for the power of the atonement.
"If the Bible says it, you better take it seriously," says Carder. "That doesn't mean you take it literally, but the Bible is the word of God."
Secondly, with all their limitations, those preachers from his childhood were convinced that Christ had died for him and all humanity.
"Their theological understanding of the atonement is very different from mine," says Carder. "But for a youngster who was struggling with feelings of exclusion, inferiority, and powerlessness, to feel in the depths of my being that the God of the Universe would die for me, was enormously powerful."
For Carder, justice and ministry to the poor are not abstractions. His father, Allen Carder, worked every morning in the fields, then left to work the 4 p.m. to midnight shift in a textile mill. Although his father preached the value of hard work as the key to success, little seemed to improve for the family.
The younger Carder, whose only escape from the world of poverty was in school, developed an inchoate understanding that hard work alone wasn't always enough, that systemic injustices stunted human lives. Admitted to a special high school established by the fac-ulty at East Tennessee State University in Johnson City, he became the first in his family to graduate from high school. He was awarded a scholarship to the university. But all through high school, he never revealed to his classmates where he lived.
It wasn't until his mid-30s, when he was pastor of Concord UMC, a booming successful suburban church in Knoxville, that Carder made peace with his childhood. He wasn't even aware of the scars it had inflicted until church leaders asked him why he was so angry, especial-ly when he preached on the dangers of wealth. Through support from friends and his congregation, Carder realized that, as pastor of a large and growing church, he had achieved a certain level of "success," and was at once enjoying that success and resenting it.
"I came to realize that my experience in poverty and struggles with inferiority were not something to run from, but gifts," says Carder. "I began to experience the grace that I had been preaching about: that I was a child of God and that my identity had nothing to do with wealth or poverty, and that I didn't have to do anything to earn that identity other than to accept it."
He continued to preach about the dangers of wealth and affluence, but his tone changed. "I wouldn't choose [poverty] for others, but I experienced things for which I am profoundly grateful."
One of the challenges of the Center for Excellence in Ministry is the culture's understanding of excellence. A church that defines excellence based on growth and numbers is idolatrous, he says. "Success, upward mobility, wealth and power, are the very things Jesus refused to be part of in his temptation in the wilderness. Excellence in ministry is rooted in God's excellence, which the world often sees as 'weakness' and 'foolishness.'"
It's talk like that that prompts the Rev. Peter Storey, who has known Carder since hosting him on a 1995 visit to South Africa, to call him "the most prophetic bishop in the United Methodist Church."
A bishop in the Methodist Church of Southern Africa and prominent critic of apartheid, Storey often played host to American dignitaries studying "the South African problem." It was a duty he did not always relish, as many of his visitors didn't "get it."
Carder, though, was a bishop who "got it."
"Ken had an authentic sensitivity to the issues we were struggling with," says Storey. For some pastors, "being prophetic" means sounding off on every issue for the sheer nuisance value.
"But Ken is a prophet in the deepest Biblical sense," he says. "He has a pastoral love of people and a faithful-ness to Christ and Christ's teachings that require him to speak the truth, even when it is uncomfortable."
Long ago, the red-headed boy found his voice.

Just read a blog from someone saying how good the Jools Holland New year thing was. Bollocks. It was a load of shite. I'm not going to back that up with arguments and observations, but I will say that the ever youthful Lulu does infact look like her plastic face has been too close to the fire. She scares me.
Washing up's done, house is pretty tidy and I got up reasonably early, did a few sit ups and stuff and had a shower. I'm atempting to draw a comic that is bringing me no enjoyment but still has to be done - the fact that I wrote does not help at all, it crap. What a mistake, I came up with a character I quite liked, put him in a situation I thought was interested and the strip started appearing in a friend's comic; sometime during drawing the second part I completely lost interest with what was essentially a one joke idea and held no personal expression for me whatsoever. Oops. Now I'm struggling with the third part, don't know what else to write, seeing as I had the bright idea of making it up as I went along because I thought it would be interesting, exciting and keep the whole thing fresh. The strips already been absent from the comic for the last 2 issues and after the next issue my friend is putting the comic on hold whilst he does other things. Like I said, I'm struggling, what had started out as a funny silly thing has become a bit of a grind, it's not going to completed in it's current venue and I've got other things I should be doing. To add to this it's already been announced that the strip will appear in the upcoming comic. This is not how I wanted to start the new year, except, it's only a continuation of the last year so you still have to deal with the bad decisions the last year you made. Last year me was a wanker and this year me doesn't want to have much to do with him. Obviously the only thing to do is to soldier on with the comic strip and see how it goes. Once I've got my old obligations out of the way I'm going to think very carefully before aquiring new ones.

Voice Compare » Fantastic Four » Princess Anelle
Comparision of the voice over actors who have been the voice of Princess Anelle with sound clips and images.
Princess Anelle is the only child of Skrull Emperor Dorrek VIII and Empress R'Klll whom is the heir of the Skrull Empire and she has made her Comic Book debut in Fantastic Four #37 in April of 1965. Unlike how the Skrull race is normally depicted as vicious warmongers, Anelle is often depicted as a kind woman whom was against her father's aggressive and had a strong preference for peace. Princess Anelle's love life was never really successful as she have had relationships with those such as Skrull Warlord Morrat and Kree Captain Marvel (neither one ended well for different reasons) that and she has rejected Super Skrull's love wanting nothing to do with him. Princess Anelle is normally not a combatant but she does have the ability to shape-shift

EDITOR'S OPINIONToday on the Fantastic Four VC section we have a little something for this little lady from the Skrull empire... PRINCESS ANELLE! We shall begin with the 90's Fantastic Four series in which she was in one episode and was voiced by the late great Mary Kay Bergman. Mary played the role of Anelle as a bit more sympathetic role of a young woman whom is apparently realizing her questionable taste in men. Anyways Mary's performance for the role was suitably dramatic for the role and it felt pretty natural right from the start. So basically Mary's work as Anelle was a good example of her work and of the voice work in the show.
In Super Hero Squad Show, Anelle appeared for a few episodes in the 2nd season was voiced by Tara Strong. Tara plays the role of Princess Anelle a bit differently as she does sound stronger, even a little sinister at first (but this doesn't last). Oh yes and I must say that Tara's voice for the role was not only rather suiting for the role but rather lovely as well if I may add. Anyways Tara's work as Princess Anelle is a pretty good example of her work in general but it is a fine example of the show's voice work though. Overall I am not entirely sure who to go with here as both of these ladies did well in their own way.

Both do really really well here. It's very hard to pick but I guess my vote should go to Mary since made the role of Anelle what it is.Reply

as much as I respect Mary and her work, rest her soul, I have to give this to Tara.Reply
Having watched a lot of SHSS, I feel that Tara conveyed much more emotion and I feel her performance was just a little more well acted compared to Mary's, where at times I felt Mary went a little too hammy in her emotions (particularly that last line).

I really really love Tara Strong to death. She's probably my favorite voice actress of all-time, but the Super Hero Squad Show just didn't give her the proper material to work with. So I'll give it to Mary Kay Bergman.Reply

West Bromich Albion midfielder Cladio Yacob says he has now adjusted completely to suit the English game.
Since joining from Racing Club, the 26-year-old has gone on to become an important figure for the club, playing in all but two of the Baggies' Premier League fixtures this season.
When speaking to Ole, he said: "This is a different football, in which I am feeling very comfortable, it's a unique experience, I am becoming a more complete player."
Yacob also commented on what he thought of the Premier League and the state of the English game.
He added: "In England, each match, it's one area to the other, it is always played to attack, to pass forward.
"It rains all the time so the grounds are always in a very good condition and that makes the teams play with the ball on the ground, that's why the football here is faster."

Sprague, Hendrick Fight Handling Problems at PPIR
- Jul 29, 2002
- Team Hendrick
CHARLOTTE, N.C. (July 29, 2002)—Jack Sprague finished in the top 15 for the 15th time in the No. 24 NetZero Chevrolet this season as the NASCAR Busch Series visited Pikes Peak International Raceway for the NetZero 250 on Saturday in Fountain, Colo.
The three-time NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series champion fought an ill-handling race car, but managed to salvage a top-15 showing while holding on to third place in the Busch Series standings, 219 points behind leader Greg Biffle.
Ricky Hendrick had one of his best qualifying efforts of the season at PPIR, starting ninth in the field of 43. The rookie went a lap down while fighting slippery track conditions, finishing 22nd in the No. 5 GMAC Chevy.
Hendrick remains 26th in driver points after starting just 15 of 21 events this season.
Hank Parker Jr. took the NetZero 250 checkered flag for his first Busch Series victory of 2002.
The NASCAR Busch Series next visits Indianapolis Raceway Park for the Kroger 200 on Saturday. The race will be broadcast live on TNT (8 p.m. EDT) and MRN Radio (7:30 p.m. EDT).
