By this action, the Government has proved that so long as it exists, none of us are truly free. Government and freedom are mutually exclusive. So if we value freedom, there's only one conclusion. It's time to get rid of this leftover relic we call Government.Max Barry
Die Hard represents the class of modern action pictures and the standard by which they must be judged. Few films falling into the "mindless entertainment" genre have as much going for them as this movie. Not only is it a thrill-a-minute ride, but it has one of the best film villains in recent memory, a hero everyone can relate to, dialogue that crackles with wit, and a lot of very impressive pyrotechnics.James Berardinelli
On all levels of life and as each day unfolds, respect for Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. grows impressively, and the essence of this respect is the fact that he had deeper insights than most of us have appreciated. It is not mere poetry to call him prophetic. The accuracy of his prophecies is almost uncanny. By the early 1950's history had endowed him with a sense of the precise moment that Black people were ready for mass action, ready for its risks, and ready for its responsibilities.Harold George Belafonte, Jr.
What happens when bosses ignore memos from subordinates? The country is now learning the answer to that question in a most painful way. On July 10, 2001, an FBI agent in Phoenix [Arizona] wrote a memo raising serious concerns about Middle Eastern men attending U.S. flight schools. The memo never made its way up the chain of command, and no action was taken.Richard Behar
The fact is that I like thrillers and action movies. But what really fulfills me is getting out of my comfort zone, taking chances.Halle Maria Berry
One learns, I would hope, to discover what is right, what needs to be righted through work, through action.Daniel Berrigan
It is pleasant to be admitted into the birth-chamber of a great idea destined to be translated into action.Augustine Birrell
Theaters are the opposite of class lectures, the front row is where the action is.Chetan Bhagat
I know a lot before a start an action. I know a lot about the necessity of the general idea of sculpture, but I dont know anything about the process in which the action will run. When the actions runs, my preparation works, because I am prepared to do a thing without knowing where it goes. You see, it would be a very uninteresting thing it would have nothing to do with art if it were not a new experiment for which I have no clear concept. If I had a clear concept of solving the problem, I would then speak about the concept and it wouldnt be necessary to make an action. Every action, every artwork for me, every physical scene, drawings on the blackboard, performance, brings a new element in the whole, an unknown area, an unknown world.Joseph Beuys
But one is forced to translate thought into action and action into object.. ..I am not a teacher who tells his students only to think. I say: act; do something: I ask for result. It may take different forms. It can have the form of sound, or someone can do a book, make a drawing or a sculpture. I dont care..Joseph Beuys
The aim of management science is to display the best course of action in a given set of circumstances, and this must include all the circumstances.Anthony Stafford Beer
It is deplorable that homosexual persons have been and are the object of violent malice in speech or in action. Such treatment deserves condemnation from the church's pastors wherever it occurs... The intrinsic dignity of each person must always be respected in work, in action and in law.Pope Benedict XVI
Philosophy, which formerly raised man to feel conscious of himself because he was a thinking being and to say, I think therefore I am, now raises him to say I think, therefore I am not, (unless he takes thought into consideration only in that humble region where it is confused with action).Julien Benda
The desire to abase the values of knowledge before the values of action...Julien Benda
I will prove that there are infinite worlds in an infinite world. Imagine the universe as a great animal, and the stars as worlds like other animals inside it. These stars serve in turn as worlds for other organisms, such as ourselves, horses and elephants. We in our turn are worlds for even smaller organisms such as cankers, lice, worms and mites. And they are earths for other, imperceptible beings. Just as we appear to be a huge world to these little organisms, perhaps our flesh, blood and bodily fluids are nothing more than a connected tissue of little animals that move and cause us to move. Even as they let themselves be led blindly by our will, which serves them as a vehicle, they animate us and combine to produce this action we call life.Cyrano Hercule Savinien de Bergerac
The first star vehicle of the summer of 1996 is also the first major disappointment of the season. Mission: Impossible, the big-screen resurrection of the popular late-'60s/early-'70s series, fails to generate much in the way of excitement or intrigue. This globetrotting adventure looks like an opportunity for Tom Cruise to play James Bond a role he is totally unsuited for. The writing for last year's 007 return, GoldenEye, isn't a lot better than that for Mission: Impossible, but, as an action hero, Pierce Brosnan is considerably more debonair and charismatic than Cruise.James Berardinelli
Imagine, if you will, the dispiriting experience of listening to an awful cover of one of your favorite songs. That's how I felt sitting through Die Another Day, the 20th official outing for [James Bond]. This is a train wreck of an action film ... What's missing from this movie? Any real sense that we're watching 007 rather than a generic spy in a tuxedo.James Berardinelli
If you're in the mood for something that's completely visceral and mindless (really mindless the plot is a joke, filled with contrivances and coincidences), this movie will fit the bill. Parts of it are excruciatingly bad, but there are numerous examples of well-directed action that, on balance, compensate for the worst gaffes. This is a poor man's Die Hard. It has the explosions, gunplay, and spectacular stunts, but little of the wit and intelligence. In other words, it's a typical summer action flick.James Berardinelli
With Batman & Robin, the fourth entry in the recent Batman movie series, the profitable franchise appears poised to take a nosedive. This film, which places yet another actor in the batsuit, has all the necessary hallmarks of a sorry sequel pointless, plodding plotting; asinine action; clueless, comatose characterization; and dumb dialogue. ... Batman & Robin moves at a dizzying pace, yet goes absolutely nowhere.James Berardinelli
If there was ever an action movie that didn't warrant a sequel, it's Speed. However, the film grossed enough money to be numbered among the big summer hits of 1994, and the unfortunate result is this film, which reunites director Jan de Bont with leading lady Sandra Bullock, while leaving Keanu Reeves somewhere safe and dry, "working on his music" with his band, Dogstar. Considering the dubious quality of the final product, this may be the wisest decision of the young actor's career. Speed 2 can be numbered among the worst second chapters ever made.James Berardinelli
The principle of utility judges any action to be right by the tendency it appears to have to augment or diminish the happiness of the party whose interests are in question... if that party be the community the happiness of the community, if a particular individual, the happiness of that individual.Jeremy Bentham
Through the Spirit's action may the young people gathered here have the courage to become saints! This is what the world needs more than anything else.Pope Benedict XVI
Whatever the dangers of the action we take, the dangers of inaction are far, far greater.Anthony Charles Lynton Blair
I found it peculiar that those who wanted to take military action could with 100 per cent certainty know that the weapons existed and turn out to have zero knowledge of where they were.Hans Blix

For the giveaway I am offering three new DVDs from Vivendi Entertainment. Giveaway is open to residents fo the USA and one winner will receive all three DVDs. Enter on the Rafflecopter form below.
A Turtle's Tale: Sammy's Adventures – Release Date: 1/3
Born on a Baja, California beach in 1959, new hatchling Sammy must do what his fellow newborn sea turtles are doing: race across the beach to the ocean before a seagull or crab captures them. Thus begins Sammy's incredible fifty-year ocean journey. Along the way he meets his best friend, a fellow turtle named Ray, and overcomes obstacles both natural and man-made while trying to fulfill his dream of travelling around the world. Throughout his travels, Sammy never forgets about Shelly – the turtle he saved on his first day and loves passionately from afar. Based on the actual course of a sea turtle's life, this story of one creature's breathtaking journey is a thrilling voyage the whole family will enjoy.
My Review:
Children will fall in love with Sammy and his friends as they conquer obstacles while racing to reach the ocean. It's a kid-friendly movie that entertains and teaches about friendship, struggles, hope, and environmental awareness.
The Garfield Show: Dinosaurs and Other Animal Adventures – Release Date: 1/10
Everyone's favorite cat is at it again! Join this larger than life feline and his animal friends as they embark on a series of adventures from digging up dinosaur bones, working with farm animals and discovering life under the sea. No stone is left unturned as Garfield takes us through the history of dogs, attends a pet show and even prepares to eat a pet goldfish! Being part of the animal kingdom has never been any more exciting!
My Review:
I grew up watching Garfield in older cartoon animation and recall it being a favorite. Even with its CGI animation, Garfield is still a lovable show with humor and mischief. Watching Garfield, Jon, Odie, and the other characters in The Garfield Show: Dinosaurs and Other Animal Adventures is a welcoming trip down memory lane for myself and clean, fun entertainment for my kids. The different episodes on this DVD feature Garfield and his friends as they deal with all things animal-related.
A Mile In His Shoes – Release Date: 1/10
Only a miracle can help baseball coach Arthur "Murph" Murphy (Dean Cain) and his losing minor league baseball team. As Murph sets out to recruit new talent, he stumbles upon Mickey (Luke Schroder), a young farmer with an incredible pitcher's arm. However, Mickey's parents are reluctant in allowing him to join the team because he has Asperger's syndrome, a form of autism. Murph convinces Mickey's parents that life in the minor league will benefit their unique son, but he doesn't realize just how much his new recruit will help the team's game and, more importantly, their spirit. Based on a true story, A Mile in His Shoes is an inspirational film that celebrates faith, determination and the power of friendship.
My Review:
You don't have to be a baseball fan to appreciate this movie. Mickey Tussler, a teen with autism, is set apart from others due to his behaviors. With help from baseball Manager, Arthur "Murph" Murphy, Mickey shows others the meaning of compassion and inspiration. There are some religious undertones in the story, but they're not pushy. I shed a few tears, felt warmness in my heart, and rooted for the underdog while watching this movie.

Following stocks have been recommended as fundamental picks by SMC Global:
1. South Indian Bank
Current market Price (CMP) : Rs 23.20 Target Price (TP): Rs 31 Upside: 33%
The bank is aggressively expanding its branch network across the country and has plans to add more branches and ATM going forward. In a tight interest rate scenario the bank has maintained NIM around 3% during the first half of the current fiscal and has plans to maintain NIM of 3% going forward. Meanwhile the overall CRAR of the back is as high as 14.43%.
We expect stock to see a price target of 31 in one year time frame based on FY14 (E) book value of 26.98 on a target P/BVx of 1.15.
2. Neyveli Lignite Corporation
Current market Price (CMP) : Rs 82.65Target Price (TP): Rs 92 Upside: 12%
Company estimate is 10 per cent growth every year in turnover and around 10-15% in profit. NLC forges ahead in all fronts and with its expansion activities the company is poised for substantial growth in the years to come. The company is planning to add 15,000 Mw of power by 2020-22 at an investment of around ~90,000 crore.
We thus expect the stock to trade for a price target of '92 in one year time frame, based on estimated FY14E EPS of 9.04onatwoyears historical average P/Exof10.2.

|Cate Co, here are the photos you asked to see. I seem to have trouble taking photos of the house when the sun is shining. Today it was cloudy and still trouble!
They have almost finished bricking the house. Working on the arches under back veranda today. The mortar coating won't be brushed on for 2 weeks. There is a sample of the color in one of the photos - brick isn't finished nicely in that photos since dirt will be pushed up to wall edge.
The stonemason's did a fantastic job! Thank you Marlin, Craig, Mike, et al. We capped the retaining walls with 2" thick flagstone. Front veranda was also done in the same stone, but a little thinner.
The brickmasons are also THE best! Thank you Phillip, Todd, Joe, Phillip, Mike, Charlie, et al.
My DH is trying to convince me to leave the brick 'as is' and not wash...but it totally looses the look I'm going after. The back of the house is beautiful, as is. Looks like an English Tudor. But the front, with the stone is suppose to have the european cottage look - without the brick washed it just doesn't work for me. (Opinions/comments will be appreciated.)
The retaining wall with the stone columns isn't dried. The section closest to the camera has been gone over with a 'stone' to knock off extra mortar. The rest of wall will also receive this treatment.
Notice how we chose not to do limestone lintels over the windows and used the same stone as the Carriage House. The brickmason's did a great job on this too!
Also notice the copper chimney. My GC jokes that the price of a penny has gone up to 2cents since I have so much copper on the roof!
I will miss everyone when they are gone! I have enjoyed watching them work their magic!

Follow-Up Postings:
|Thanks for the photos, Allison. I love your house!! It's really something special and will be stunning. Such a beautiful setting, too. I've never seen a complete copper chimney... very cool! What does 'washed' brick look like? Does it take away most of the color and make it look old and antique? I guess I've never seen that done, but sounds interesting and would go along with your beautiful stone and give that old European look you're after. Keep posting your progress pics. Thanks! Cate
- Posted by allison0704 (My Page) on Sat, Apr 30, 05 at 10:39
|Thanks, Cate! Washed brick is merely putting mortar over the brick. Some masons refer to it as stucco. It has to be done by someone who knows what they are doing or it ends up spotchy/uneven after it dries.
There is a sample of what it will look like, photo #9. That was done on the inside of the retaining wall, so the mortar between the brick isn't finished out since dirt will cover it. The house mortar is cut and flush (not cut back between the bricks, not squished). You will still be able to see the brick/mortar outline on the house, just as in the sample wall.
You know how in Europe, the old houses have layers and layers of stucco holding them together with some parts of the house made of stone? That's the look of our house...but without the cracks!
One of the first things we ditched was a solid masonary fireplaces. Saved 30K (12' lower level, 22' peak in Great Room, 14' above roof = 48' of labor/materials) so we couldn't use real stone on the chimney. We looked at the faux stone, but it's as heavy as real stone. With the chimney above our bedroom, DH was afraid it would end up in bed with us...ending us! GC jokingly suggested copper. The cap was already going to be copper, so why not? Not much of it shows from the front of the house and once it ages some, it will blend right in with the roof. ARC states any metal on chimney other than copper must be painted, so copper it was. Cost almost the same as faux rocks (they are expensive!) so we didn't save any money doing it this way.
I did find a photo of one on the internet that looks very similar to ours (but a different top). I would rather not have had the seams, but it was too large an area without denting/crimping the sheets. Plus the sheets are not as large as the sides, so it would have had irregular seams lines in it. (sorry so long!) Allison
|Ok, I see what you're talking about! That treatment does give it more of a cottage look. Can't wait to see the end result! We went through the same dilema with the chimney. I wanted it to be the same stone as the outside, but they said way too heavy. So, we ended up with stucco, and it will have a two row brick ledge at the top with a copper chimney cap. I love copper when it weathers to that warm brown, and your chimney is gorgeous. Re your dormers, on a previous home we did the same treatment on them that we did in the other front windows. On that house it was plantation shutters, so we put shutters in the dormers too. In this house we're not doing plantation shutters, so they just put a wood treatment on the dormers instead of a window.
Are you putting those exterior full length shutters on your front windows that he shows on so many of his homes? I just love those! Especially with a rubbed off finish.
- Posted by allison0704 (My Page) on Sat, Apr 30, 05 at 13:40
|I emailed you a rendering of the original house design. It will show shutters, etc. Allison
|Thanks for the rendering! I do see it shows the shutters I like ... very nice. I think the brick is a good choice over the siding, like you said much easier maintenance. I'm anxious to see your brick after the mortar wash. Looks like everything is coming along nicely for you.
- Posted by ownerbuilder (My Page) on Sun, May 1, 05 at 1:00
|Your home is beautiful. I have several Jack Arnold portfolios and love looking at them for ideas.
What kind of wood did you use for your kitchen beams? Are they solid wood and attached using hangers?
We are supposed to have false trusses in our great room. Our finish carpenter doesn't handle solid beams. He will make box beams out of 1x material but we were hoping for solid beams. So, now we need to find someone to build them and get them up on the ceiling...and make sure they won't fall down!
- Posted by allison0704 (My Page) on Sun, May 1, 05 at 9:18
|We used solid cedar beams everywhere - kitchen, great room, master bedroom, the verandas.
We had them installed by our framers before putting up the sheetrock so that they wouldn't ever come down! They are attached from the top with many, many looooong wood screws and the ends of the ridge beams in the great room/master bedroom sit on supports inside the walls.
I can email you shutterfly photos if you want to see house "guts" while it was being built.
- Posted by ownerbuilder (My Page) on Sun, May 1, 05 at 13:55
|Thanks for the information. I'm going to try to hold out for solid beams. If you have time, I would love to see the house "guts" regarding the beams.
Was your contractor worried about shrinkage with green wood? We are considering kiln dried doug fir, hoping to avoid some wood movement. (Our span is 21').
We are getting close to drywall and if we are going to have solid beams, we need to decide yesterday :)!
I love your front entry with the stone steps and landing! Charming, interesting and fun!
- Posted by allison0704 (My Page) on Sun, May 1, 05 at 16:30
|I've sent you an email, ownerbuilder.
- Posted by allison0704 (My Page) on Sat, May 7, 05 at 20:37
|Updated photos from today.
The brickmasons and painters finished up outside yesterday. Mortar is still wet in places. Allison
Here is a link that might be useful: Update Photos 5-7-2005
|Gorgeous!! I sent you an email. The washed brick looks great with the stone. Your brickmasons did a wonderful job. You must be really pleased!
- Posted by allison0704 (My Page) on Sun, May 8, 05 at 8:20
|Thanks, Cate. All our subs have been terrific. The brickmasons, stonemasons and framers were all father/son combos not to mention some of the nicest folks to be around. Always asking what we wanted or what we thought, etc.
Happy Mother's Day. Allison
|Beautiful home! I grew up in Alabama.....your home reminds me of houses in Birmingham. When we visited a couple of years ago, we saw the unwashed (kind of smeared) mortar in a place called "Mt. Laurel". We loved it.....have not seen it done here in VA. Enjoy!
- Posted by allison0704 (My Page) on Wed, May 11, 05 at 8:39
|Thanks, soofriver. We're moving to a gated community about 5 miles down Hwy 41 from Mt. Laurel. IMO, my house is a lot different from those in Mt. Laurel. They are all in the Craftsman style. There are a few mortar washed houses there but with a heavier texture than we used.
Where in AL did you grow up? Allison
|I grew up in Homewood, went to the OLD Shades Valley (before there was a Homewood High and Mt. Brook High). My parents moved to Mt. Brook my freshman year in college.
- Posted by allison0704 (My Page) on Fri, May 13, 05 at 10:26
|We've lived in MB for the past 20+ years. Not far from the firestation on Overton Rd (Brookwood Forest area). We moved here for the school system, of course. The place we're building is about 1 mile past Shoal Creek/before Smyer Lake.
I just looked at your "My Page." Great house! You must be proud of your children! I have 'artsy' kids too. Two in college, one going next fall.
Hope you're still having a little spring-like weather. It's gotten hot here this week.
|My parents lived on Belle Meade Way. When my Dad died, my Mom moved to Somerby. We probably know some of the same people! Your house is amazing....it is hard to beat the quality you get in the B'ham area. Birmingham has the most beautiful residential areas of most places we have been (which may be a surprise to most people). I miss the BBQ most of all, though :-)
- Posted by allison0704 (My Page) on Fri, May 13, 05 at 15:10
|That's Cherokee Bend, right? Somerby's nice. We thought about moving my g'ma there, but my g'dad needed to go somewhere else so she went to Fairhaven. He was suppose to go to, but never made it. They're both gone now.
I know! You almost hate telling someone you live in Alabama because they think you are poor, stupid and uneducated! Traditional Home magazine featured several Birmingham/Mountain Brook homes a few months ago. Did you see? Very good articles on antique shopping too.
Jim N Nicks has THE BEST bbq, IMO. Try their catfish next time you come to town. SO good. The Fish Market just opened new place downtown right behind where they use to be and another location on 280 between 119 and Hugh Daniels Dr. Both JnN's and FM have locations near new house, so we'll go there often. BBQ anywhere else just isn't the same....just like sweat tea!
Homewood's Hollywood section should be featured in a magazine. I don't know how long ago you lived there, but from the looks of your children's ages you're a bit older than me. Families are re-doing the Spanish style houses on and off the main drag.
Did you ever eat at The Buttery in Mtn Brook Village? We use to drive all the way from Bessemer to eat there when I was little. It was located on Canterbury Rd (behind Gilchrist).
How long have you lived in Va? My uncle is a retired Navy Captain, last job was at the Pentagon. They lived in Fairfax while the kids finished school. Now he lives in Upper Marlbora, MD. (sp?)
|Hey Allison,
I can't seem to get your pictures and I'm dying to see them. When I click on any of the small pictures or the "view slide show" nothing happens. What am I doing wrong?
Thanks for your help,
Terry :)
- Posted by allison0704 (My Page) on Fri, Jun 10, 05 at 14:47
|I sent you an email, Teresa.
|Hi allison,
Do any of your home photos show your interior doors with the emtek handles? I read your recent posts concerning the Greely entrance piece and the Medici levers and type 11 rosettes you used. These are the same ones that I am planning to order this week. I was also considering the Tuscany Style #16 plate to go with the Medici Levers. My home in Pennslyvania has a old world look to it also. I have seen your pictures before but at that time wasn't worrying about what door handles to use so didn't look for this in your photos. Are you happy with your Greely style entrance piece? Does it look old world?
|I can't see them either :(
|Can't see them either...sounds beautiful!
|I am not able to see your exterior house pictures. I am interested in doing the whitewash/limestone on my brick. I am curious how it looks.

text: Orchard Park, NY (WGR 550) -- After a tumultuous start to their relationship in 2013, the message from the Buffalo Bills to safety Jairus Byrd is simple: they view him as an important piece and don't want to lose him. Byrd, who was given the franchise tag by the organization in March, neglected to sign the tag until two weeks before the start of the regular season. He missed all off-season workouts, minicamps, training camp and the entirety of the preseason. Even after he signed his tag for a cool $6.916 million, the Bills were still without Byrd for the first five games of the regular season because of a bout with plantar fasciitis in both feet. Many pondered if it was an extended ploy by Byrd and his notably stubborn agent, Eugene Parker, to get the player paid and keep him out of harm's way. That rhetoric proved to be false with Byrd playing in the remaining 11 contests of the season for the Bills. Being brought in slowly, Byrd made the final nine starts and accrued 48 tackles, four interceptions, one forced fumble and a sack in his 2013 season. The impact was good enough for the rest of the league, too. For the third time in five years, Byrd was selected to go to the Pro Bowl as one of the league's elite players. For that reason among many others, the Bills don't want the safety to escape Orchard Park. "We've had a conversation -- myself and Russ -- sat and talked to Jairus, and we're gonna make an offer to the guy and we're gonna try to keep him," said Bills General Manager Doug Whaley during the team's season-ending press conference. "We're gonna try to the best of abilities because we're in the business of collecting good players and he's a good player." For the second straight year Byrd is set to become an unrestricted free agent, but also remains eligible to be franchise tagged by Buffalo once more. If the team were to do that, Byrd would be owed north of $8 million to retain his rights. As Whaley points out, they're keeping all the potential outcomes available to them. "That's always an option. We're not gonna back ourselves into a corner and eliminate any possibility of trying to retain a good player," he said. "We're gonna leave all options on the table." Byrd has 22 interceptions in his five-year career with the Bills. He's 27 years old. Twitter: @JoeBuscaglia

Hypocare is a revolution in infection control. It is a topical application that mirrors the body's own immune system. Working naturally with the body, it rapidly kills bacterial, viral and fungal infections. In the equine world Hypocare is used to clean and flush wounds and injuries as well as stubborn fungal infections, such as Ringworm, Mud Fever and Thrush. How does HYPOCARE mirror the body's own immune system? The active ingredient in Hypocare is Hypochlorous acid, which is produced naturally by the body's own immune system. When a wound or infection occurs in the body, neutrophils, a type of white blood cell are deployed to the site of infection. The neutrophils then engulf the invading pathogen and produce Hypochlorous acid which kills the bacteria. How powerful is HYPOCARE? Hypochlorous acid is amazing. Hypochlorous acid is between 80-300 times more effective at killing pathogens than hypochlorite or bleach. Although its disinfecting powers are unrivalled, it is kind to healthy tissue and has a skin neutral pH, ensuring that it will not slow down the healing process. Does HYPOCARE sting? NO. Hypocare will not sting when applied as it has been formulated to emulate a skin pH, which means it works in harmony with the body What animals can HYPOCARE be used on? Hypocare can be used on any Mammal. In the domestic pet world, it is frequently used because of its ability to help maintain healthy and itch-free skin. It is also safe if ingested, so you won't need to worry about your pet licking the affected area. Will HYPOCARE harm healthy tissue? No. Because Hypochlorous is a chemical that the body produces naturally, it is completely harmless to sensitive areas such as eyes, cuts and open wounds. Can Pathogens become resistant to HYPOCARE? No. Unlike antibiotics where overuse has resulted in resistance, pathogens cannot become resistant to Hypochlorous. Is HYPOCARE competition safe? YES. Hypocare contains none of the banned substances disapproved by the FEI. Why has it not been available before? It has long been acknowledged that Hypochlorous is highly effective at killing a wide range of microorganisms and that it is safe for users and has no environmental implications - unlike traditional chemical sanitizers or disinfectants. Until now however, it has not been possible to produce high strength Hypochlorous with a shelf life of more than a few hours. Ground breaking technology Hypocare is a ground breaking technology developed by a British company that has succeeded in making high strength, stable Hypochlorous acid that will change horsemanship and animal care forever

December 18, 2014
MARYVILLE, Tenn. (AP/WVLT) -- Officials in East Tennessee are making progress on a plan erect a statue in honor of Sam Houston, who served as a governor of Tennessee and helped Texas win its independence in the 1800s.
Houston was born in 1793 and moved to Maryville, Tenn., upon the death of his father in 1807.
Joe Emert, who serves on a committee overseeing the project, told The Daily Times Houston's story as an adult has already been told several times and this project will focus on his childhood.
He said a lot of Texas residents already visit the community to see the Sam Houston Schoolhouse, which he set up when he was 19.
Officials say they are still working out details, but hope that the statue can be unveiled in 2015.

Perhaps you should be able to specify how long a turn will be in the start of a game, anywhere between a week to a few hours. This way there'd be less wait for the deadbeats or people on holidays.
Also, skipping turns. Perhaps we could have the option to skip a turn and save the troops for later? This was inspired from when I saw a guy use his 9 missed turn troops to crack a continent, and could be a useful strategy. Or perhaps you could say "Skip all turns for the next X days/turns" if you're going on a holiday or something, so you don't bog down other players.
Finally, unjoined games. Is there a period of time whereafter they're deleted? If not, there should be. It'll save server space. People should also not be allowed to make a new game with the same options after their old game has been deleted.
So yeah,

The Flyers are stumbling into Wednesday night's match-up against the Washington Capitals. A 4-2 loss against the Maple Leafs Monday at Wells Fargo Center again put the Flyers two games below the .500 mark and for a team struggling with consistency the wins must come immediately.
With Matt Read out of the lineup for the foreseeable future and Tye McGinn out for a few weeks with an orbital bone fracture Flyers GM Paul Holmgren pulled of a trade for Simon Gagne. Holmgren sent the Los Angeles Kings a conditional 4th round pick for Gagne, who is expected to be in the lineup against Washington. Gagne is excited to return and the fans are equally excited, outside of a few skeptics the move should help the Flyers in a few areas of need but especially on the power play.
As of right now this Flyers club isn't playing like a playoff team. That needs to change and it needs to start against the Capitals. Alex Ovechkin's Caps played and won Tuesday night versus the Hurricanes. Braden Holtby pitched a 33 save shutout for Washington while Nicklas Backstrom registered 2 points (1 G, 1 A) in the win. The Capitals, however, have struggled mightily this season coming into Wednesday's game with only 15 points on the season (7-10-1). That places them 14th in the Eastern Conference ahead of only the Sabres (7-12-1 15 points), though the clubs are tied in points the Caps have played less games. Ovechkin has had some difficulty finding the net on a consistent basis this season registering only one multi-goal game which happened to be a hat trick against New Jersey last Saturday. In terms of team goal scoring, Washington is middle of the pack with 51 goals on the year, the Flyers are 4th in the NHL with 60 goals. The Flyers, though, have played more games than any other team in the league which skews that ranking quite a bit.
Speaking of the Flyers, wouldn't it be nice for them to string some wins together? It would! Sooner or later Peter Laviolette is going to have to give Ilya Bryzgalov a night off. Bryz has played the most games by any goaltender in the league and has expressed to the media that he is tired. Brian Boucher should get a start in one of the next two games and it figures to be Saturday against Ottawa but you never know Laviolette could trot Bryzgalov out there yet again.
Wednesday will, no doubt, be an emotional game for the Flyers and the fans with Gagne's return. It'll be important for the boys in orange to capitalize early on scoring chances. The power play, again, will be key but it's the little things that has to improve. One area that needs improving is the passing. Guys have to make smarter passes out of the defensive zone to ensure they don't get caught into a situation where they're running around tired in the defensive zone. Usually it's been a turnover at the line or an over-skated puck that winds up in behind Bryzgalov.
It'll certainly be interesting to see how things shake out in seemingly must win game for the Flyers. You hate to call this game a must win but it essentially is one of those games especially looking at the upcoming schedule. It's brutal.
Don't miss Simon Gagne's return, get your Flyers tickets here!

The shooting that took so many lives in Connecticut has officials in Sullivan County thinking about how to prepare themselves for a worst case scenario. Our Eva McKend met with both the Sullvian County Sheriff's office and the Monticello Central School District to learn more about what plans they have in place should something happen.
SULLIVAN COUNTY, N.Y. -- The Monticello Central School District held a drill last year to prepare themselves for a mass shooting or hostage situation, much like the one that happened in Connecticut. It's just one of the precautions Superintendent Daniel Teplesky believes the school must take.
"We have precautions that are set up. People have to be buzzed into our schools. However, when we have a student that comes back and is home on break that we recognize and the person comes into the building, we allow the person to be buzzed into the school. It's something we are going to have to take a look at, our protocols, our procedures to ensure every child is safe in our district," said Teplesky.
The local agencies in the relatively small municipality of Sullivan County generally take comfort in knowing they can band together but the horrific incident still leaves officials feeling uneasy.
"How do we ensure that our children are safe and have parents understand their children are safe," said Teplesky.
Administrators at the Monticello Central School District say they will hold another emergency situation drill in the spring but this time it will include both the high school and the middle school. All county officials will have to be on board.
"A drill like the one we hold with the schools allows us to familiarize ourselves with the plant, to familiarize ourselves with the employees and to familiarize the people in the school on what they might expect if we did have to come in," said Sullivan County Sheriff Michael Schiff.
Through a grant from the Department of Homeland Security, the Sheriff's office purchased an armored vehicle last year, a car they say would be used if anything like what happened in Connecticut were to come to our backyard. They also have a special operations team ready to go.
"There's no way to prepare yourself for something like that emotionally or physically but we have done some things. We started a response team with the proper training and tactical gear so that if a situation like this did happen, we could engage an active shooter to stop the aggression," said Schiff.
It's a situation no one wants to see happen here or happen again but has everyone in the county thinking critically about what they would do if it did.
