When Beth Phoenix and Natalya turned heel back in August, WWE Diva fans held their breath. They seemed hell bent on turning the division upside down, separating themselves from the "models" like Kelly Kelly, Eve Torres, Alicia Fox and others. They christened themselves the Divas of Doom, or, alternatively, Sisters of Salvation, claiming that they were out to "save" the Divas division from princesses and perky blondes.
The storyline has mostly gone downhill now, for several reasons. It took Beth three matches to defeat Kelly for the Divas title. Even when she won it, at the Hell in a Cell pay-per-view, it was only after Natalya interfered by hitting Kelly in the head with a microphone. Hardly a dominant win. Creative also didn't go nearly far enough with the storyline – Beth and Natalya still refer to themselves as "Divas", they still do photo shoots, and they have been very selective in who they choose to go after. So far it has only been the faces such as Kelly, Eve, Alicia, AJ and Kaitlyn. If they were after the models, shouldn't they also target Brie and Nikki Bella, as well as Rosa Mendes? Tamina was never a model, so there is a logical reason why they wouldn't go after her.
Also, at the start, Natalya was presented as an equally dominant partner. However, her singles wins have been sporadic, at best – any match that she won was when she was in a tag team match with Beth. Lately she has lost out to Alicia on RAW, SmackDown and at the house shows. This weakens the concept of the dominant team they were originally made out to be. Now it seems like they are another version of LayCool.
Recently on WWE.com, AJ and Kaitlyn were interviewed regarding the "Models v Wrestlers" debate and asked where they perceived themselves to be in it. AJ didn't mention her independent wrestling background but mentioned being a WWE fan before joining, and thought that Kaitlyn (with her background in power lifting) was a "hybrid" – part model, part wrestler. It's an interesting discussion and deserves further analysis.
For the previous few years, the shift was made from hiring women who could already wrestle to hiring pretty girls and teaching them the basics. With the exception of Vickie Guerrero, there are no female managers or valets – it seems every girl hired must know, at the very least, how to not hurt themselves or others in the ring. But is knowing "just enough" tantamount to being able to label yourself a wrestler? Lets look at the model side of the argument first.
The majority of the women in WWE now were previously models before being signed (or had some other non-wrestling background – Eve Torres was a dancer for the Los Angeles Clippers for example). There is no disputing that. However, is it really fair to deride these women for what they previously did as a career before joining WWE? Kelly was signed in 2006 and went to WWE's development facility at the time Ohio Valley Wrestling before being called up to join ECW. She started to compete in the ring more in late 2007, crossing over to Raw in the 2008 Draft. Over the years, Kelly has grown as a character and a wrestler, but people still mock her, refusing to take her progress seriously, despite now being the most over woman on the roster.
Eve won the 2007 Diva Search and went down to Florida Championship Wrestling for training. In 2008, upon being called up to the main roster, she was a backstage interviewer, then took part in bikini contests and dance competitions before having her first match later in the year. Since then, her matches have improved somewhat, although a criticism is that there is no "flow" to her matches, just a series of moves. Another criticism is her lack of response from the crowd. Nonetheless, she has started to integrate her Brazilian jiu-jitsu into her matches, which creates the opportunity for some interesting matches. Eve has shown she wants to continue to improve her in-ring skills.
Alicia Fox has been more prominently inserted into the DOD v Kelly/Eve storyline on the latter's side. She was signed the same year as Kelly, sent to OVW, then FCW before being called up to take part in the Edge/Vickie Guerrero wedding storyline. She was shuffled over to ECW as DJ Gabriel's valet and made her in-ring debut against Natalya. Although her matches are hit and miss, she has put in the effort to learn. The Bella Twins have, from time to time, shown flashes of knowing more than they show. Rosa Mendes is a mess – the less said about her, the better. We know about AJ and Kaitlyn's backgrounds.
Beth and Natalya's complaint that these girls are just models falls flat in the face of the facts. All of them have learned and grown during their time with the company. Not only that, but the last time I checked, doing photo shoots was a type of modeling. The DOD's argument would have a little more weight if they had stopped doing them yet they haven't. However, can any of these girls be termed "wrestlers" – including Beth and Natalya?
Vince McMahon has stated time and again that WWE is entertainment, not wrestling. Nowadays, Raw is mostly talking segments for the men, and the matches are an afterthought. You get more wrestling on Superstars and SmackDown. Plus, both Superstars and Divas make appearances outside the company – on sitcoms, game shows, talk shows and various other places. Even the terms are different – you rarely hear the term "wrestler" on the show. You have "Superstars" for the men and "Divas" for the women. Ever since Sable coined the term back in 1999, "Divas" has been the official term for the women in the company, which is why Beth and Natalya made no effort to throw off that shackle in the storyline.
When you look at the wider sport of wrestling, calling women like Kelly, Eve, Beth, Nattie, and the others "wrestlers" diminishes the term. When you have women out there who travel hundreds of miles to compete in a match in front of 20 people for little pay due to their love of the sport; when you have women who are suffering any number of injuries but still go out and put on a solid 30 minute match; when you have women who compete in front of a hostile crowd – and may or may not win them over through their skill but they give it their all anyways; when you have women who have suffered hardships, pain, suffering, loss and despair but still go out there for one more match…
When you look at everything I just listed, and more, can any of the women in the WWE lay claim to being a wrestler? When their matches are limited to 2-3 minutes on TV (possibly more on PPV); when their story lines (no matter how well they start out) wind up going downhill due to hypocrisy and illogical details; when none of them outside one or two of them get any kind of response from the crowd – no. You can't call the women of WWE wrestlers. You know who I call wrestlers? And this is by no means a complete list – to do that would take hours.
Jenny Sjödin, the Pro Wrestling: EVE champion, who is hell bent on disproving the naysayers with her technical style.
Madison Eagles, who was SHIMMER champion for just shy of two years, who moved from Australia to the United States to have more opportunities to wrestle – and even after suffering several injuries from a car crash in April still put on several amazing matches in the U.S., Canada, and Australia.
SHIMMER co-founder Allison Danger, who unveiled her "Womanist Revolution" in 2011, challenging fans, wrestlers and promotions alike to change the way they look at female wrestling.
Sara Del Rey, one of the best female wrestlers in the world who, after being told by TNA that she didn't have enough of what the Beautiful People (at the time, Angelina Love & Velvet Sky) had, shrugged it off and continues to dominate every place she wrestles.
Nicole Matthews, who refuses to conform to any one's image just to be signed to a company and continues to improve every time she steps in the ring.
MsChif, who, with her job as a scientist, didn't go into wrestling for the money – she went into it because she loved the sport. Ten years later, she has virtually no knees left, yet she continues on, for love of the sport.
Mercedes Martinez, WSU Champion for two years now, who has busted her ass for 11 years and shows no sign of slowing down anytime soon.
And beautiful, fragile, trail-blazing Lufisto. The Montreal native, whose journey in wrestling has encountered so much hardship, so much pain, yet so much triumph and so much admiration. She has been wrestling since 1997 – 14 years. She started out wrestling men and gradually developed a hardcore style of wrestling, which got her into trouble with the Ontario Athletics Commission. This woman got the law in Ontario overturned, which allowed independent wrestling to flourish there. She's wrestled in the U.S, Mexico, Germany and Japan against women such as Princessa Sugey and Aja Kong. She has won several titles, a lot of them held by men only until she won them. She also won the 2007 IWA-Mid South Queen of the Deathmatch tournament by defeating Mickie Knuckles in the finals. Upon debuting for SHIMMER, Lufisto won over fans by showing her technical prowess as well as her toughness – her matches against Cheerleader Melissa, Wesna Busic and her three way against Amazing Kong and MsChif are some of the best in the promotion's history. Lufisto also helped create Femmes Fatales, the sister promotion to Northern Championship Wrestling, a company she has been with since 1997. Femmes Fatales has now become one of the best female wrestling promotions in North America.
All this has not come without a price, however. It isn't just the physical problems, it's also the mental and emotional problems. As Lufisto shared with Ringbelles here, her frustration, her pain and her weariness with wrestling radiates with every word. Compared to her trials and tribulations, can any Diva call themselves a wrestler?
Lets call a spade a spade here. The Divas are entertainers, as are the Superstars. When you sign a contract with Vince McMahon, you cease being a wrestler. You become an entertainer under his rules. You do what he says, you give up almost all creative license, and you conform to his image. If he tells you to do a photo shoot, you do it. If he tells you to have a Baywatch match, you do it. If he tells you to go out and perform in the ring for 2 to 3 minutes (and heaven help you if you punch or kick too hard!), you do it. You entertain the masses that tune into WWE programming. That's it. Is this a knock on the women (or the men) in the company? No – they have their own difficulties to deal with, including hard traveling schedules and injuries. But when you look at the big picture, it doesn't come down to models or wrestlers.
It comes down to entertainers or wrestlers.

Some basics to concealment. How to hide effectivly
Posted 23 June 2006 - 08:29 AM
Most people think that it requires a solid object to to block the vision of an opponent from you. But it is possible to conceal yourself in plain sight from an opponent by using the environment around you. Leaves, bushes, branches, and other various natural objects can be molded by you to conceal yourself in an unlikly place. First you must know your surroundings before you can perform this sucessfully. You must know what materials,colors, and shapes that keep you from being blended into the surroundings.
The first and foremost is what materials are going to aid you in your concealment. You must use natural materials that look as if they naturally belong in the surrounding of your hide. Using the wrong materials in the wrong surroundings will give you away such as covering yourself in pine branches when you are attempting to hide in a grassy opening. The human eye will imediatly pick up on this abnormality and immediatly begin a more extensive investigation. It is better to use materials that match what is around you for superior concealment. Like covering yourself in maple leaves, when your hide is under a maple tree in the fall, or putting some branches or bark over you when you are by a fallen tree.
Next is the color factor. You will need to match the colors that surround you as much as possible. Also, black should never be used because black is not natural color and will be detected. Black is created from the absense of light so, if you are in a shadow, you will appear blended in with the shadow no matter what color you appear if the oppenent is in a brighter possition than you. Figure out what colors are in your background, because you are wanting to conceal yourself in the background. You do not want to use the bright colours of things that the human eye will usually pick up on first(Such as trees). The goal is to blend into the background so use mainly browns, tans, greys and some green if your woods ground has lots of vegitation,and apply very little amounts of reds, yellows, and such. If you think you should blend in with the trees, then dress up as a freakin' tree, I cannot stress this more, the objective is to blend into the background.
Shape in nature is completly random. Only humans use "shapes", so it is your job to obscure your outline. The oppenent will pick up on solid outines, and mostly of your head and shoulder area. So apply foliage, or other materials that will break your outline and keep the oppenent from looking twice.
You can also use shadows to conceal yourself from the enemy. The human eye cannot adjust to different lighting situations at the same time, so if the area is well lit, then you can use a shadow effectivly. Trees,logs,boulders, and other bigger objects will always cast a shadow if there is light being cast down on it. You can use these shadows to make yourself appear as part of the shadow. But remember that if there is light being casted on to you yourself will also create a shadow, so make sure you are out of the light completly. As I said before, if the oppenent is in a brighter area then, itwill be harder for them to make sense of what is in the shadow, but if they are in a area that is just as or more dark than yours, they will be able to make clear of what is there.
Silhouette, yet not as important can also give you away. If you hide on the top of a hill, then someone looking up that hill will be able to see your outline very easily because of the outline that is present from the light sky background. It is better to hide on the slope of the hill, so that you are not given away by your outline on the skyline.
Light reflections are always picked up on from the human eye even if it isn't in their direct line of sight. Your gear can reflect the suns light and give you away, so make sure that you cover any shiny, metallic objects that are prone to reflection of light. So cover these objects with debrise and what-not. Glasses, visors, and optics can reflect light also, but if covered will compromise your vision, so try to use your eyes to scan around instead of moving your head or gun around.
Hiding in the open, takes nerves of steel, you have to know how to control yourself. Excessive movement will cause the enemy to hear andsee you. If you absolutly have to move, then move very slowly, trying to avoid rustling natural/artificial hiding material(when picking material, try to find silent materials). Quick movements are what the eye will imediatly come in contact with, so moving slowly will give you a better chance of not being spotted. Also, reconize the wind patterns, and you can move with the wind which will look like natural movement. And when peeking you head up, remember you have a forehead, so more of you is moving than you think. Try to look around an object instead of over it beacause it will limit the clearance of other parts of your body to your eyes, there for making a smaller target even if you are detected.
Now that you know all this information, you should practice it and you will become a ghost in the woods, and the enemy wont even know what hit them.

This is wise advice for solid objects but in vegitation, try to look THROUGH the vegitation if you can. Called "Buring A Window". This technique is extremely hard for me. Some people just pick it up naturally but this always gave me trouble on the stalk lane.
Relax your eyes and try to see through the gaps in the veg. You won't be able to see everything but they won't be able to see you either. It helps to look to the side at something that's approximately as far as what you want to look at through the bush. Stare at it for a little while so your eyes get used to focusing that far. Then go back to trying to look through the veg.
A helpful trick if you bother with mini binos. Focus them at the object off to the side and then go back to looking through your veg. Everything but those gaps are going to look fuzzy with the other areas clear.

The Robot Garage in Birmingham
This cool science and tech warehouse for kids is a prime southeast Michigan place to explore, create and build – especially if your family loves LEGOs!
Does your family dig science and tech stuff? Rejoice! The Robot Garage, open since June, has brought LEGO blocks and robotics under the same roof to foster innovation and enthusiasm for the sciences.
"We are a year-round place for LEGO building and robot enthusiasts of all ages," says Sarah Jacobs, who co-owns The Robot Garage with husband, Jonathan.
The backstory
The couple began thinking about a facility dedicated to the two activities when one of their daughters joined her school's robotics team. "I thought, 'Wow, if you're not a kid who's lucky enough to have a robotics team, you don't have access to this stuff,'" says Jacobs.
The result is a 4,400-square-foot converted warehouse, decked out in silver paint on the exterior and full of color and open spaces inside. Each classroom includes a table with a huge pile of LEGOs that instructors help guests dig through to find whatever piece their hearts desire. The building lives up to its name with glass garage doors between the classrooms.
The Robot Garage
Very much a family business, the Jacobses' three daughters each have their own offices upstairs. Not only do they help out with keeping the building neat and tidy, but the girls also interact with customers and assist on the business end.
"Our 13-year-old daughter is running the collectibles part of the business," Jacobs says.
Cool stuff to do here
The Robot Garage welcomes drop-ins and hosts a variety of classes, camps and workshops for kids ages 5 to 17. Kids can build a city, design a robot, construct their own car and much more. Visitors can also browse through the store and purchase what they built based on weight.
"We are not one of those stores that are afraid of people touching things," Jacobs says.
"The kids right now are working at vehicle camp. Each child has built their own car with their own transmissions," says Jacobs.
When the kids came upon a concept that they didn't understand fully, Auto Europe, a local car dealership, volunteered to show them how it worked. After seeing the transmissions in action, the kids were able to apply what they learned to their creations back at the garage.
Kids have also constructed LEGO windmills powered by solar panels, LEGO creations with motion sensors that are able to follow a line, and a powered LEGO city the size of two large tables created by a group of young campers.
Things to see, people to meet
When you visit the garage, you might see the mechanical Ferris Wheel or Ball Machine on display, or perhaps the Statue of Liberty constructed entirely out of – you guessed it – LEGOs. LEGO mosaic pictures adorn the walls in the shop, where families can purchase a medley of funky science-inspired gadgets and toys.
The Jacobses said they hope that their little customers get even more out of their experience than just a really great time.
"I want them to leave with a smile on their face, having seen something new and cool – and I'd love them to leave with a new friend," says Jacobs. "We think it would be great if every kid in southeast Michigan grew up knowing how to build a robot."

Washington, DC 20515
Phone 202-225-5136
Fax 202-225-0437
Congressman Wolf, the most senior of the 11 members of the House of Representatives from Virginia, is serving in his 17th term in Congress. He represents the 10th District, which stretches from McLean to Winchester.
Congressman Wolf sits on the powerful House Appropriations Committee, where he is the chairman of the Commerce-Justice-Science subcommittee. He also serves on the Transportation and Housing and Urban Development and State and Foreign Operations subcommittees. In addition, he is the co-chairman of the Tom Lantos Human Rights Commission, a bipartisan organization which works to raise awareness about international human rights issues.
His committee assignments provide him with an ideal position to address the varying needs of the 10th District, which is home to some of the world's leading defense, aerospace, cybersecurity and high-tech companies, thousands of federal employees and other professionals. Agriculture and manufacturing also are an important part of the 10th District's economy. Up to half of the Commonwealth's apples, peaches and grapes are grown in the 10th District; Kraft Foods and Hood Milk have large manufacturing plants in the district. Tourism is important, too. Winchester played an important role in George Washington's early adult life; his military and political career began there. Oak Hill plantation in Loudoun County was the residence of President James Monroe. The country home of Richard Bland, Northern Virginia's first Representative to Congress is in Fairfax County. Civil War battlefields, including Manassas National Battlefield Park, dot the 10th District. The Journey Through Hallowed Ground, which follows Route 15 from Charlottesville to Gettysburg also runs through the 10th District.
From 2001- 2006 and again since 2011, Congressman Wolf has served as the chairman of the Commerce-Justice-Science Appropriations subcommittee, which funds the Commerce Department, Justice Department – including FBI, DEA, ATF and U.S. Marshals Service – NASA, National Institute for Standards and Technology (NIST) and the National Science Foundation (NSF). From 2001-2006, the subcommittee also had jurisdiction over the State Department, until the new State and Foreign Operations Subcommittee was created in 2007. Congressman Wolf served as ranking member of that new subcommittee from 2007-2009.
Congressman Wolf was born in 1939 in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. He received his B.A. degree from Penn State University in 1961 and his law degree from Georgetown University in 1965. He lives in Vienna with his wife, Carolyn. They have five adult children and 16 grandchildren.

Barack Obama, the US president, is due to arrive in the state of Louisiana to be updated on efforts to tackle a massive oil spill threatening the coast.Hundreds of thousands of litres of oil have been pouring from a ruptured well in the Gulf of Mexico since Thursday and there has been increasing criticism of the response of the government and oil giant BP.
The White House has sent senior administration officials to the region to monitor BP's attempts to plug the leak and control the slick which is heading for the coasts of Louisiana, Mississippi, Alabama and Florida.Janet Napolitano, the homeland security secretary, told the "Fox News Sunday" programme that the government was taking an "all hands on deck" approach to the spill.
Ken Salazar, the interior secretary, said on Sunday that the administration would keep up its pressure on the oil company. "Our job basically is to keep the boot on the neck of British Petroleum to carry out the responsibilities they have both under the law and contractually to move forward and stop this spill," he told CNN's "State of the Union" programme.Wildlife threatenedGovernment data on Sunday showed that the thickest part of the huge slick had turned northward towards the remote Chandeleur Islands, a chain of uninhabited islets in eastern Louisiana that is an important wildlife area.
The chain of uninhabited islets in eastern Louisiana is prime marsh and wildlife area, but officials said confirmation of any impacts would not be known until an overflight was conducted.
"Basically what it's showing is that the light sheen is impacting the islands in the Chandeleur Sound," Petty Officer Matthew Schofield of the coast guard told the AFP news agency.
"What we need to do is get an overflight to confirm that we have a light impact. These are just predictions of oil impacts, we have not been able to confirm them."The Chandeleur Islands form the easternmost point of Louisiana and are part of the Breton National Wildlife Refuge, the second oldest refuge in the United States and home to countless endangered brown pelican, least tern, and piping plover.
Recovery workers have been deploying miles of inflatable booms hoping to contain the oil, but strong winds and heavy seas have caused several of the barriers to break loose, washing them onto the shore.
Chemical dispersant is being used underwater in an attempt to tackle the oil as it leaves the broken riser, while remote-controlled subs were trying to activate a "blow out preventer" – a massive undersea valve that should have blocked oil from flowing into the sea when the rig sank.
With efforts to plug the leak so far unsuccessful and worsening weather in the coming days likely to further hamper attempts to plug the leak, fears are growing of an ecological disaster that could rival the 1989 Exxon Valdez tanker spill in Alaska.
That disaster spilled an estimated 40.9 million litres of crude oil into the previously environmentally pristine waters of Prince William Sound, devastating local wildlife.

The number of candidates in Egypt's presidential election has been almost halved to 13, and an appeal by10 candidates who were barred has been rejected by the election panel.Some have welcomed the Electoral Commission's decision, particularly those who have seen the odds on their favoured candidate improve dramatically.
Supporters of Amr Moussa, the former head of the Arab League, have launched his campaign just hours after the Electoral Commission confirmed that 10 candidates were excluded from running for president.He is now one of the front-runners, the most prominent of those campaigning on a purely secular ticket, and one who may well pick up the many votes that were likely to go the way of the former intelligence chief, Omar Suleiman, who is vigorously opposed to any religious influence in politics. But many in the political centre are also likely to vote for Abdelmonim Abolfotouh, a former member of the Muslim Brotherhood who's idea of an Islamic state is one that is moderate, tolerant and inclusive of all regardless of their religion.The candidate of the country's most powerful political force, the Muslim Brotherhood, is now Mohamed Morsi, who was drafted in at the last moment when it became clear that the movement's first choice, Khariat El-Shater, would be excluded.Al Jazeera's Mike Hanna reports from Cairo.

Looking for a quick, sweet, and filling snack?? New to raw and don't have many tools or skills? Try these easy celery sticks filled with tahini and dates. Can also be made on cucumbers and you can also use nut butter or nut/seed cheese instead of the tahini. Very filling! I've even eaten these for a quick lunch.

Three Tips to Increase Sharing on Facebook
Recent research conducted by PR Newswire and Crowd Factory found that Twitter is more effective than Facebook for sharing press releases. In many ways, that's because Facebook isn't really designed for this purpose.
"I'm not sure Facebook is often the ideal platform for sharing press releases," Attention founder and partner Curtis Hougland told us during a phone conversation. It's a sentiment shared by others we've spoken to.
Nevertheless, there are some ways that you can maximize Facebook 's ability to share your news.

Is a bat a bird?
Leviticus 11:13-19
(Leviticus 11:13-19)--"These, moreover, you shall detest among the birds; they are abhorrent, not to be eaten: the eagle and the vulture and the buzzard, 14and the kite and the falcon in its kind, 15every raven in its kind, 16 and the ostrich and the owl and the sea gull and the hawk in its kind, 17and the little owl and the cormorant and the great owl, 18and the white owl and the pelican and the carrion vulture, 19 and the stork, the heron in its kinds, and the hoopoe, and the bat."
In verse 13 Moses tells us about the birds, and then he lists them out. In verse 19 we see the bat is included in this list. We know that a bat is not a bird. Does this not mean that the Bible is incorrect?
The Bible is not meant to be a scientific description of modern biological categories. Instead, it is often written from the perspective of what we see. In other words, it makes generic categorizations. In this case, the bat is categorized as a bird because like birds, it flies and is similar in size to most birds. If we did not know that it was a mammal, it would be natural to call it a bird. To the Hebrew of ancient times, calling it a bird was perfectly logical. But, in modern times we categorize animal species more specifically and have categorized the bat as a mammal and not a bird.
Also, we must be aware that it is modern science that has a different classification system than ancient times. To the ancients, creatures such as a bat were considered birds since they categorized all flying animals as birds. If that is the category that they used, then they were correct. It is not an error. It is a difference of categorization procedures. The critic has imposed upon the ancient text a modern system of categorization and then said that the Bible is wrong. This is a big error in thinking.

Press Release
Meaher State Park Campground Expansion Completed
March 12, 2009
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE CONTACT: Mark Pillion
March 12, 2009 251-626-5529
Meaher State Park Campground Expansion Completed
Situated on scenic Ducker Bay where Mobile Bay and the Mobile-Tensaw Delta meet, Meaher State Park has finished a renovation and significant expansion of its camping facilities.
The 12 original gravel-based camping sites have been converted to storage sites, and 56 improved camping sites have been constructed on the edge of Ducker Bay. The new sites are paved with 20-, 30- and 50-amp electrical service, water and sewer.
Campers and day visitors can enjoy a 500-foot fishing pier on the bay, which offers freshwater fishing in the spring and inshore saltwater angling in the fall. A 1,600-foot boardwalk meanders through the edge of the bay and into the Delta marsh, where a variety of wildlife and waterfowl can be observed. The park also offers a boat ramp and access to the Blakeley River.
New facilities at the park include a bathhouse with vending and laundry facilities, as well as day-use restrooms. Two picnic shelters are under construction.
Meaher State Park is also situated just across Battleship Parkway from 5 Rivers – Alabama's Delta Resource Center, which offers an expanded Mobile-Tensaw Delta experience.
Fees for the camping sites are $30 per night or $106 per week. The park will take reservations for 50 percent of the sites, while the remaining half will be rented on a first-come basis. Boat launch is $3 per person and a daily pass is $1 for adults and 50 cents for senior citizens 62 and older and youth 6 to 11. Kids under 6 are admitted free.
Visit www.alapark.com for more information or call Meaher State Park at 251-626-5529.

KNOX COUNTY, Tenn. (WVLT) - A Blount County man, who has been charged in connection with a bear baiting scheme, has been arrested for shooting at a trophy white tail buck.
A TWRA officer says he watched Christopher Caughron, 23, shoot at a prize white tail buck just off Pellissippi Parkway on Monday.
A release says the officer then chased Caughron until he gave up at Northshore and Ebeneezer Drive.
Caughron has been charged with Felony Evading Arrest, Felony Reckless Endangerment, Hunting on Revoked Privileges, Hunting From a Motor Vehicle, and Hunting From A Public Road.
A passenger in Caughron's vehicle has not been charged.
This is not the first time Caughron has been in trouble with wildlife officials.
Back in September, Caughron was one of five men arrested for illegally baiting bear.
In that case, a 400 lb. black bear was killed before the season's opening.
If convicted in that case, Caughron could lose his hunting privileges in Tennessee for ten years.

One of the results of the JEOPARD project, a unified parallel real-time Java VM for high performance, real-time and safety critical platforms is currently under test by industrial project partners. Among these partners are EADS Germany, Skysoft Portugal and Radio Labs Italy, who put the Java VM through their paces with actual applications.
Skysoft evaluates the development on multicore systems with SYSGO's partitioning operating system PikeOS. The testing application consists of Java partitions in an aviation control system, that are executed parallel.
JamaicaVM, the proven JavaVM for hard and soft real-time applications, serves as the foundation for the multicore real-time Java technology developed by aicas. The garbage collector, working in extremely short steps of only a few milliseconds, has been adapted to multicore systems, allowing for the execution of Java code, uninterrupted by other applications, and the garbage collection concurrently. Furthermore the GC implementation features parallel garbage collection on multiple CPUs, while a highly sophisticated load balancing converges the parallelism to the technically possible optimal.
For the real-time application developer this means that the established low latency garbage collector of JamaicaVM is now available on parallel multicore systems. Depending on the number of CPUs and the parallelism requirements of the application, the developer may decide whether the garbage collector and the application will be executed on multiple CPUs on demand or part of the CPUs run the application while other CPUs run the garbage collector simultaneously. This way the application may be executed completely independent and unaffected by the garbage collector.
About Jeopard
JEOPARD is an initiative of aicas GmbH and the Open Group. The project brings together leading European developers of real-time technologies, research institutes and industrial users, to develop new real-time Java technologies for multicore systems. About 3.3 million Euro are being invested in research and development for the project, which is scheduled to conclude by the end of 2010.
The JEOPARD project is partially funded by the 7th framework program. An initiative of the European community to advance research and development of new technologies, applications and industries. The project shall contribute to future standards for developing real-time Java and multicore systems.

The Federal Emergency Management Agency released Preliminary Flood Insurance Rate Maps for New York City last week that reflect the latest updates to the agency's redrawing of the coastal flood zones.
The Preliminary FIRMs replace the Preliminary Work Maps that were released in June as an interim product. Those maps, placed much of Howard Beach into a new zone, Zone A, would require residents to have flood insurance and take measures, such as raising their homes, or risk substantially higher flood insurance premiums.
The new maps reflect the same coastal flood risks as the Preliminary Work Maps and have now been updated to include river flooding in the Bronx and Staten Island. When they are finalized, the maps will determine future flood insurance rates, but do not have anything to do with the recent rise in rates. Those hikes are due to a 2012 act of Congress that reformed the National Flood Insurance Program.
Just as the June maps indicated, the entire Rockaway Peninsula will be in Zone AE, an area of high flood risk with a 1 percent annual chance of a catastrophic flood. The Zone AE area includes all of the old side of Howard Beach south of 157th Avenue, much of Lindenwood near Spring Creek and most of the Rockwood Park.
But several homes, many mid-block, on the Rockwood Park side are placed in Zone X, an area of only moderate flood risk with a .02 percent annual chance of a major flood. These areas include homes on 78th through 83rd streets between 159th and 160th avenues and 79th through 82nd streets between 160th and 161st avenues.
One block — between 89th and 90th streets and 159th and 160th avenues, across from PS 207 — was also placed in Zone X, the easternmost block in the zone. Houses on that square block sit on terrain that is higher than the community around it.
Several blocks in the northern end of the neighborhood that are on higher ground were also mapped into Zone X. About two-thirds of the stretch of Cohancy Street between 155th and 156th avenues was left out of all zones completely.
The maps coincide with the level of flooding seen after Hurricane Sandy's storm surge struck the neighborhood last year.
Much of the western portion of the neighborhood, including the blocks that are in Zone X, were not as seriously flooded as the areas closer to Cross Bay Boulevard and east of Shellbank Basin, which, with Hawtree Creek, rose by almost 10 feet during the storm. The most severely damaged homes were those sitting on the two waterways.
Several houses placed in Zone X only had basement flooding, while many now classified in Zone AE saw flooding on their first floors. Those homes were protected from the more serious storm surge due to the expanse of marshes and parkland separating the community from Spring Creek.
Last month, Gov. Cuomo announced plans to fund a restoration and retrofitting of that parkland as a defense against future storms.
Parts of Lindenwood, especially homes with subterranean garages, also flooded in the storm.
The release of the Preliminary FIRMs indicates the first step in the official regulatory review process. The next step is a statutory 90-day appeal and comment period, which is expected to begin in the spring.
The public will have the opportunity to appeal the new maps to the city during this period. Once the appeal period is over, and all appeals are resolved, FEMA will issue a Letter of Final Determination to the city that initiates the six-month adoption period, which includes approval by the City Council, before the maps become effective, which FEMA expects will occur by early 2015.
