text: With the first sip, I thought this one tasted as odd as the name. But it turns into delicious. I wanted to try this one because it has dates in it. I LOVE the 52Teas Date Walnut Muffin tea. This is very tropical…pineapple! I just wish they hadn't put in all these fruit leaves… the idea is just weird. There is hibiscus here, but I think my steep only got one leaf in it, so it doesn't taste like hibiscus. I think this one would be a nice answer to sugar cravings. The fruit is mixed with just enough sugar. I think I should have put more tea in my infuser to make it even better, but I'll have to wait for one of the infuser baskets for that.

Federal immigration officials are easing up on illegal immigrants who commit minor traffic violations, and that includes DUIs.
The move reflects the Obama administration's recent efforts to crack down on high-risk or violent illegal immigrants as opposed to those with clean records.
Meanwhile, the US Supreme Court is still deciding whether to uphold Arizona's immigration law.
It requires police officers to check the immigration status of people they believe are in this country illegally.
Unlike Arizona, local law enforcement agencies we spoke with say they do not check immigration status during routine traffic stops. They simply look at the crime committed.
Santa Maria Police say their main priority is keeping the city safe, not checking citizenship.
"Police functions are to detect any traffic violators including the unlicensed and/or drunk driving. They are not to go out and check immigration status," said Lt. Rico Flores with the Santa Maria Police Department.
They leave that to the feds who recently announced they will not detain illegal immigrants involved in minor traffic violations if they have no previous criminal history. That includes DUIs.
"I wouldn't say because there's illegal immigrants in our city, that's the reason we have crime," Flores said. "Absolutely not!"
For local police here, the rules seem simple.
"You could be from Timbuktu. If you're breaking the law, we're going to arrest you," Flores said.
Unless you're only crime is being here illegally.
"I think the laws aren't being upheld like they should be," said Elise Gilford of Guadalupe. "Illegal aliens are having the advantages that our children should have."
Still, supporters say current practices have been landing too many people with clean records detention, people who are vital to our economy.
"We need to do everything we can to keep positive, productive people involved," said Kam Jacoby of Los Alamos.
While many criticize the federal government for not doing enough to protect the boarders, according the Pew Research Center, under President Obama, deportations have reached record levels.
The New York Times reports it costs about $23,000 to deport each person, and the U.S. has been deporting an average of 400,000 people each year since 2009.
The latest numbers show about six million unauthorized Mexican immigrants are living in the U.S.

Dec 5th 2011 7:46AM As an assassination rogue i have to keep up slice and dice and also rupture on the target to have viable dps. While poison procs from rupture give a nice boost on boss fights, in dungeons the combo points are wasted since mobs will die fast. So much harder to keep up a good dps.

Jon-Rae Fletcher - Best of My TimeMy notes for this gig can be found here.
This is a blog about one curmudgeon's love affair with the em dash, as told through ramblings on music and other cultural activities, mostly about things that happened in Toronto, Canada.
This blog happens in real-life time, not internet time, so it's usually a good long while before full reviews of shows get posted. These days, because of, y'know, life, the gap between show and review is about a couple years — and climbing. Everything will be considered in the fullness of time, but you should think of this as more of an archival project than, like, breaking news. That said, exciting + notable recordings will still get posted pretty quickly after the fact.
Check out my original live recordings from many of the gigs discussed here.
You can also check out full sets uploaded to the Live Music Archive.
N.B.: All recordings should be available & playable. If you come across any broken links, invisible or non-functioning players, etc, please leave a comment and I will tend to it ASAP.
ALSO N.B.: I'm perpetually on the lookout for a new place to stash my MP3's online. If you know of any place that allows a couple gigs of stuff to be openly linked to for streaming, drop me a line!
All comments are welcome, or you can reach me at email@example.com.
All MP3's on this blog are audience recordings shared as a reminder of the excitement of seeing live music. If you are an artist who doesn't want their music shared in this way, please contact me and I shall remove it forthwith.

ABC News correspondent battling breast cancer
New York - ABC News correspondent Amy Robach has revealed she is battling breast cancer.
In an op-ed published Monday, Robach, 40, said that the diagnosis came after having a mammogram on live TV in October. A few weeks later, she was informed that she had breast cancer.
"I would have considered it virtually impossible that I would have cancer," Robach wrote in Monday's piece. "I work out, I eat right, I take care of myself and I have very little family history; in fact, all of my grandparents are still alive."
Robach said that she is scheduled to have a double mastectomy and reconstructive surgery on Thursday. She credits the mammogram with helping her detect the illness early.
"(W)hile everyone who gets cancer is clearly unlucky, I got lucky by catching it early, and there are so many people to thank for making sure I did," she said. "Every producer, every person who urged me to do this, changed my trajectory. The doctors told me bluntly: 'That mammogram just saved your life.'"

Green Acres Golf Course presents a relatively short gauntlet of six par 4s and 12 par 3s for 3,746 yards of pristine golf. The length and lack of par 5s make the course ideal for working on putting on the slick greens and precision on short iron approaches. The course superintendents work tirelessly to keep the course in optimal condition, aiming to please all golfers from beginners to the ghosts of Scottish shepherds looking to discover the latest in walking-staff technology.
Course at a Glance: * 18-hole, par-60 course * Total length of 3,746 yards from the back tees * Three sets of tees per hole
The 18-hole course at The Golf Club of Bucyrus fans out over a rolling expanse of leafy terrain that's home to ravines, lakes, and one winding river. Originally established by a group of local businessmen in 1925, it remained a nine-hole course for nearly 70 years, until architect Barry Serrafin wove nine more holes into the mix in 1992. After finishing a round and the ceremonial cutting down of the 18th pin flag, players can set down their sticks and head to the Bogey Grill, where they'll find a stocked bar and a back porch set up with dining tables and rocking chairs.
Course at a Glance: * 18-hole, par 72 course * Total length of 6,773 yards from the back tees * Course rating of 74.1 from the back tees * Course slope of 139 from the back tees * Four sets of tees per hole * Scorecard
Oakhaven Golf Club sharpens swings with a pristine 50-acre driving range. With two buckets of 150 balls each, spheroid slingers can space out their sessions over multiple visits, or take out hundreds of deserving dimples in a furious marathon of club-wielding mayhem. The fully lit range is open year round, ensuring practice time regardless of winter chills or pesky total eclipses. Perfect the particulars of your swing on the 60 grass tees or flaunt parental admonishments against playing ball in the house at one of the 33 heated and covered tees.

Don't look now, but stock market hype is making a comeback
November 01, 2010
The stock market just completed a second consecutive month of solid returns. More impressively, it has climbed by more than 50 percent since bottoming out in early 2009.
With this return to form by the stock market comes something less welcome -- a return to stock market hype. The subtext of every loud headline about stocks should be "buyer beware."
How can money market rates, etc., compete?
Against the background of a 50 percent gain in the market and predictions of new heights to come, it's tough for the world of money market rates and other deposit accounts to compete for attention. After all, average money market rates are down around 0.25 percent, and rates on savings accounts and short-term CDs are even lower. At best, you can add one to two percent by shopping for the best CD rates, money market rates, etc.
That's pretty tame stuff compared to predictions of a 'super boom' in stocks. That's what one breathless headline was calling for last week. Then again, stocks were all the rage at the end of the 1990s, and the market is still struggling to regain those levels. So perhaps it's worth a look behind the hype.
Hype equals salesmanship
The article on the 'super boom' in stocks predicted that the Dow would reach 38,000 by the year 2025. With the Dow now just over 11,000, that sounds pretty impressive, but when you do the math, it comes out to a compound annual gain of about 8.5 percent. Add in the dividend yield, which is just above 2 percent right now, and you'd more or less get to the stock market's historical average rate of return.
Do average returns constitute a 'super boom'? Only in the world of stock market hype. One word to the wise: whenever someone is trying that hard to sell you something, be very cautious about buying.
In contrast, bank interest rates may not offer much sizzle right now, but by coming to you without the hype, they also come without the risk.


text: West Central Kentucky gas prices rose eight cents to $3.43 a gallon this week, according to AAA East Central. That is an eight cent increase over the last three weeks. A check of Fastway gasoline prices (regular unleaded, self-serve) in Grayson County shows: 720 South Main -- 3.39 308 South Main -- 3.38 802 Main Street -- 3.39 512 Morgantown Road (Caneyville) -- 3.39 On the National Front Today's national average price at the pump is $3.43 per gallon. This price is six cents more expensive than one week ago and 14 cents more than one month ago; however national prices remain 35 cents per gallon less than the same date last year. National pump prices have started to exhibit the seasonal increase motorists are familiar with as we approach spring. While international conflicts or domestic refinery issues exacerbated this run up each of the last three years, the absence of such catalysts has resulted in a less dramatic increase thus far in 2014. Cold weather and limited demand across the country have helped to keep a lid on gasoline prices so far this year. As the weather warms and refineries begin the switchover to produce more expensive summer-blend gasoline though, pump prices are likely to continue higher, especially if crude oil prices remain elevated. Crude oil prices may be affected in coming weeks by ongoing geopolitical tensions in South Sudan and Venezuela.

What's new with the CCV?
We are proud to recognize the 2014-2015 Christensen Scholars and Interfaith Scholars. Applications are currently available for next year's scholar programs.
The 2014 Augsburg College Youth Theology Institute (ACYTI) Journal has been published on our website. Read the thoughtful essays on Christian community and technology by the high school participants.
The summer 2014 Augsburg Now magazine features an article about previous Christensen and Interfaith Scholars, Faithful and Relevant.
Connecting Faith, Scholarship, Service, World
The Christensen Center for Vocation is a natural outgrowth of Augsburg's commitment to the theological exploration of vocation. This commitment rises from the belief that all people have the capacity to be agents of God's love by using their gifts and talents to serve their neighbor. By promoting and supporting activities that provide opportunities for deep reflection, the CCV helps students, staff, faculty, and friends of the College discern their life purpose in service to the world.
The fundamental principles that inspire and guide all CCV endeavors are the five lessons learned from Bernhard M. Christensen, president of Augsburg College from 1938-1962:
- Christian faith liberates minds and lives.
- Diversity strengthens vital communities.
- Interfaith friendships enrich learning.
- The love of Christ draws us to God.
- We are called to service in the world.

Arizona Cardinals
Mock Draft: McShay has Cardinals taking quarterback
It's never too early to start thinking about the NFL Draft, especially if you're a fan of a team that's in the middle of a nine-game losing streak.
That's the boat Arizona Cardinals fans are in. And considering the woeful play the team has gotten from the quarterback position during the skid, fans will be happy with what ESPN/Scouts, Inc. draft expert Todd McShay has Arizona doing in his very early 2013 mock draft.
McShay has the Cardinals tabbing West Virginia signal caller Geno Smith with the eighth overall selection.
There is still a lot of work to do on the top quarterbacks, but the question at this point is how high a team will reach for the top player a the position. It's easy to argue the Cardinals need a quarterback as badly as any team in the NFL right now, and when Smith is on, his mechanics, footwork and confidence make him an effective passer.
Smith got off to a tremendous start in 2012, throwing for 1,996 yards with 24 touchdown passes and zero interceptions during the Mountaineers' 5-0 start. West Virginia finished the season 7-5 and Smith ended up throwing 40 touchdowns and finished fifth in the nation in passing efficiency.
Smith stands 6-foot-3 and weighs 214 pounds -- decent size for an NFL signal caller. McShay currently has Smith ranked as the top quarterback in the 2013 draft crop and 23rd-ranked player overall.
The Cardinals last drafted a quarterback in the first round in 2006, when they nabbed USC's Matt Leinart with the tenth overall pick.

Which TV Episodes Could Easily Inspire 'The Equalizer 2: The Sequelizer'?
Features By Christopher Campbell on September 29, 2014 | Be the First To CommentDenzel Washington has never done a sequel. That has to be extremely rare for an actor of his caliber, especially one who does his share of popular action movies. But the projects he chooses, even those of a genre prone to franchises, tend not to lend themselves to sequels. Maybe there could be an Unstoppable 2 or a Deja Vu All Over Again or another tale involving one of his many detective characters, but there's apparently been no interest. Inside Man was supposed to spawn a follow-up, but that was canceled. Now we're about to find out if Washington's latest hit, The Equalizer, will give him his first movie series. The Equalizer 2 has actually been in development for a while, but so far the actor hasn't signed on. The sequel likely won't go forward without him, so let's just assume he will be on board in order to imagine what's next for Robert McCall. As far as I can tell, by the end of the first movie, McCall seems to have killed everybody who has anything do with the Russian mafia and their prostitution trade. Probably not, but let's suppose that's the case. We don't need a sequel that has anything to do with that storyline. No additional Russian criminals going after McCall as revenge, no loose ends, no more bad guys up the ladder of business with a link to the one teen prostitute who he decided to care about. The Equalizer is based on a TV series where every week […]
Melissa Leo to Maybe Star in Action Film, and That's Exactly What Hollywood Needs
Casting Couch By Adam Bellotto on November 22, 2013 | Be the First To CommentHere's something that, on it's own, isn't particularly newsworthy: Melissa Leo might star in a hypothetical movie that hasn't been greenlit yet. Yawn. I know. But in a larger context, this wishful thinking suddenly becomes not entirely dull. The film-to-be in question is The Toll, from playwright/director Neil LaBute. Leo would play a New Jersey tollbooth operator who stumbles upon a potential terrorist attack against the entire East coast, and, as tollbooth operators are known to do, takes down the entire terrorist cell single-handedly. LaBute describes the film as "a character piece, to take a middle-aged woman and put her in a crisis you would normally find Bruce Willis. It's finding someone who has none of the supposed attributes of an action hero and yet asked to do all of the things that those people are asked to do." And that's something essentially non-existent in the current film market.
'Charlie Countryman' Is a Countryman Best Left Undiscovered
Movie Reviews By Allison Loring on November 15, 2013 | Comments (8)Editor's note: Our review of what was then called The Necessary Death of Charlie Countryman originally ran during this year's Sundance film festival, but we're re-posting it now as the film opens in limited release today. A close up of a beaten and bloodied Shia LaBeouf (who plays the title character) hanging upside down is the first image of The Necessary Death of Charlie Countryman and brings one question to mind: what did Charlie do? A voice over (from John Hurt) explains simply that "love is pain" as the story takes us "back to the beginning" to a stark hospital room where Charlie's mother (Melissa Leo) lies dying. As she takes her final breath, something strange happens, and suddenly a healthy looking Leo sits next to Charlie to impart some last words and wisdom. This idea that Charlie can hear from the dead (complete with a tongue-in-cheek joke about The Sixth Sense) is touched upon throughout the film, but unfortunately ends up being more distracting (and sometimes laughable) than a necessary trope to help drive the story along. Charlie's mom tells him he should go to Bucharest, essentially because she thinks he will "have fun" there. So he does.
Return to Big Blockbuster Sound with Trevor Morris' Action-Packed Score for 'Olympus Has Fallen'
Aural Fixation By Allison Loring on March 21, 2013 | Comments (2)A composer known for his otherworldly scores for films such as Immortals and period scores for television programs such as The Borgias, The Tudors, and The Pillars of the Earth may seem like an odd choice for a film about a very real place (the White House) falling victim to a fictional (albeit extreme) situation. However with a title like Olympus Has Fallen, composer Trevor Morris' past pedigree seems to make him the perfect fit to tell a story that is in fact as grand, and moving, as his past work. A fan of action movies himself, Morris worked closely with Olympus' director Antoine Fuqua to not only bring the story of the White House being taken over to life, but do so by getting audiences' adrenaline and emotions racing.
Everyone Is Exclusively Serious In These New 'Olympus Has Fallen' Images
Exclusive By Neil Miller on February 21, 2013 | Comments (2)It's quite serious. That's the one thing that FilmDistrict seems to want you to know based on these new images from Olympus Has Fallen, released exclusively to Film School Rejects this morning. It's true, there are plenty of reasons to be optimistic about this one. Among them: Antoine Fuqua is a director who has dealt in more quality than anything else, as evidence by his gritty turns with Brooklyn's Finest, Shooter, Training Day and Tears of the Sun; Aaron Eckhart's jaw structure, as seen in The Dark Knight, was clearly made to exist about a foot and a half above the Presidential podium; Gerard Butler plays a good redemption story, always delivers with a gun in his hands; and it's got Morgan Freeman. On top of all that, it's a movie about a siege of the White House, in which one man is the key to saving POTUS from some Asian-based threat. It's also quite bloody and full of what the kids might call "mean mugging," also known as serious people looking very serious.
Casting Couch: Harrison Ford and 'Star Wars' Rumors Start to Swirl, Jared Leto Returns to Acting, and More
Casting Couch By Nathan Adams on November 6, 2012 | Be the First To CommentWhat is Casting Couch? It's a casting news column that's been talking way more about a movie based on a racing video game than it imagined it would be. Read on for more information. It's bound to get pretty annoying following every rumor that pops up about the new Star Wars movie between now and 2015. But, let's face it, when comments start getting thrown around about Harrison Ford playing Han Solo again, even vague rumors start to get pretty interesting. So, when Inside Movies announced that they have sources claiming that Ford has reversed his famously grumpy position on Star Wars being lame, and that he, Mark Hamill, and Carrie Fisher are now all "upbeat" about more movies getting made, geeks everywhere instantly started salivating like Pavlov's dogs. Let's try to not let this Star Wars thing get out of hand—but Harrison Ford might play Han Solo again, y'all!
NYFF: 'Flight' Is The Right Kind of Manipulative
Movie Reviews By Jack Giroux on October 14, 2012 | Comments (3)For anyone who has been clamoring for Robert Zemeckis's return to live-action, Flight should appease those fans of the director who haven't embraced his recent motion-capture adventures. This isn't exactly a triumphant comeback, but with Flight he mostly knows what buttons to push in order to please. It's a true testament to Denzel Washington's performance that the blunt drama doesn't fall on its face. Washington has major obstacles to overcome in making the character of Whip Whitaker as empathetic as he is. From frame one, Zemeckis and screenwriter John Gatins unflatteringly show us who this guy is: a bad father, an alcoholic, a coke addict. There is nothing to admire about him, not even his surface level charms, which are best showcased in scenes between Washington and John Goodman.
'Francine' Trailer Shows Profound Desperation and Melissa Leo Rubbing Cats On Her Face
Movie News By Scott Beggs on September 10, 2012 | Be the First To CommentIn Francine, Melissa Leo plays a woman leaving prison to return to society, dealing with mountains and molehills on the outside. From the look of the trailer, the Oscar winner has the weight of the world on her shoulders as the movie – the feature narrative debut of documentarians Melanie Shatzky and Brian M. Cassidy – appears to be the cinematic equivalent of the photo on a driver's license. It's stark, raw and attentive to detail. It will have you aching for background music (or anything, anything at all) to take your attention away from the imagery. And what's with the cats? Is her cat lady status profound or perplexing? How did a trailer featuring an actress rubbing cats on her face just make me want to see the film? Maybe it's because she looks absolutely nothing like she did for her role in The Fighter. It's transformative and proof of her amazing strength as a performer. Check it out for yourself:
'Why Stop Now' Trailer Gives Jesse Eisenberg a New Excuse to Look Nervous
Movie News By Nathan Adams on July 5, 2012 | Be the First To Comment2010 was a good year for Jesse Eisenberg and Melissa Leo. While Eisenberg was wowing audiences with his performance in The Social Network, Leo was simultaneously turning heads for her role as an overbearing, white trash mother in The Fighter. And Tracy Morgan, well, Tracy Morgan is insane. So watching this trio team up in Phil Dorling and Ron Nyswaner's new comedy, Why Stop Now, should be something of a treat; especially since the powers that be seem to have cast each actor in roles that place them firmly in their comfort zones.
Aubrey Plaza to Adorably Scowl Through 'The Necessary Death of Charlie Countryman'
Casting Couch By Nathan Adams on May 28, 2012 | Comments (2)We haven't reported much yet on The Necessary Death of Charlie Countryman, which is a shame, because it's a promising sounding project. So, seeing as there's a new bit of casting news regarding the film, let's use that as an excuse to cover all the basics, shall we? The Necessary Death of Charlie Countryman started off as a Black List script by a screenwriter named Matt Drake (Project X) that was eventually picked up by Voltage Pictures and given to Fredrik Bond to direct. A studio synopsis for the film explains it by saying, "Charlie Countryman was just a normal guy…until he fell in love with the one girl who will probably get him killed. When Charlie meets the absolutely irresistible Gabi she's already been claimed by Nigel, an insanely violent crime boss with a gang of thugs at his disposal. Armed with little more than his wit and naïve charm, Charlie endures one bruising beat down after another to woo Gabi and keep her out of harm's way. Finally his exploits of blind valor create such a mess that he's left with only one way out; to save the girl of his dreams, must Charlie Countryman die?" These aren't the truly exciting aspects of the film, however. The real appeal of this project is the cast that Bond has assembled. He's got Shia LaBeouf in the title role, Evan Rachel Wood playing Gabi, Mads Mikklesen on board as the Nigel character, and names like Rupert Grint and Melissa Leo […]
Sam Rockwell, William H. Macy, and More Start Work on 'A Single Shot'
In Production By Nathan Adams on March 30, 2012 | Comments (1)Fans of writer Matthew F. Jones have a lot to celebrate. His novel "A Single Shot" is about to be turned into a big screen thriller, and the names attached are enough to make even the most hardened film cynic squeal with glee. Deadline Charlottesville reports that production has now begun on the adaptation, which is under the direction of David M. Rosenthal (Janie Jones) and stars a cast that includes names like Sam Rockwell, William H. Macy, Jeffrey Wright, Joe Anderson, Jason Isaacs, Kelly Riley, Ophelia Lovibond, and Melissa Leo. Jeez, Mr. Rosenthal, you had me at Sam Rockwell. But for those not sold just at the sight of all those talented names listed together, take a look at the Amazon plot synopsis of Jones's novel:
By now everyone knows that after his upcoming two-part hockey flick Hit Somebody, Kevin Smith is done making movies. If Red State is any indication, the time's right for his exit. Smith's Westboro Baptist Church-inspired horror-thriller has been making headlines since his ill-fated fake auction following January's Sundance premiere. He's taken it on the road, showing it to packed houses across North America. It played a week at the New Beverly Cinema in L.A. The filmmaker's tweeted about it incessantly. Now, it's on DVD. And it's still really, really bad, a simplistic, poorly-constructed exercise in low-rent genre moviemaking. It's as if Smith made the movie just so he could promote it. Horny Midwestern teens (Michael Angarano, Kyle Gallner and Nicholas Braun) sneak away one school night to have sex with an older woman they've met online. Turns out the woman, Sara (Melissa Leo), is the daughter of the psychotic fringe preacher Abin Cooper (Michael Parks) and Abin really, really doesn't like fornicating.

Oscar Breakdown: Best Supporting Actress
Features By Scott Beggs on February 23, 2011 | Comments (2)This article is part of our Oscar Week Series, where you will find breakdowns and predictions for all of the major categories. Unlike last year, the field is wide open for which fantastic performance will earn the naked golden statue of power for Best Actress in a Supporting Role. Some fans are sad not to see Mila Kunis, Barbara Hershey or Miranda Richardson among the ranks here, but that shows just how strong these performances were. In no particular order, there's a bartender with a boxer to build up, a mother with a boxer to build up, a Queen with a King to build up, a young girl with revenge on her mind, and a woman who would probably rip your face off and then talk about how great you are to it.

Features By Scott Beggs on February 18, 2011 | Comments (1)Every week, Landon Palmer and Cole Abaius log on to their favorite chat client of 1996 as CriterionCollector85 and JP2themax in order to discuss some topical topic of interest. This week, they puzzle over how to define a Best Supporting Role. What does that support mean? Or look like? Does it matter how long someone is on screen or how big a catalyst they are? Since the Oscars don't seem to know…what the hell is a supporting role anyway?
'Dear Lemon Lima' Trailer Melts Hearts and Ice Cream Cones
Movie News By Scott Beggs on February 11, 2011 | Be the First To CommentThe review quote missing from the Dear Lemon Lima trailer is Rob Hunter saying, "What an oddly beautiful and bittersweet little film this is…" In his review, he describes exactly why he fell in love with the movie, but since a picture is worth a thousand words, here's 2,208,000 words (at 24 frames per second) on why you should love it. The movie tells the story of a young girl whose boyfriend calls it quits, and she decides that winning the Snowstorm Survivor Competition is the way back into his arms and affections. The sweet and sour and funny and strange are all there. Just like growing up. Check out the trailer for yourself:
In this ambitious but failed departure from the guru of fanboys, Kevin Smith meditates on the current philosophical extremism in fundamentalist Christianity and government. What starts out as a possible teen titty movie about three Midwestern kids trying to get laid quickly turns into an American Gothic tale about an extreme right-wing church lead by Pastor Abin Cooper (Michael Parks in a fearless and ferrous performance) and their biblical battle with portly ATF officer Keane (John Goodman in a hero of the day moment). With recent tragedy in Arizona, the film does take on a timely quality, but never fully develops into the balls-out horror movie Smith promises.
Year in Review: Top 10 Topics, Trends, and Events of 2010 That Have Nothing to Do With the 3D Debate
2010 Year in Review By Landon Palmer on December 28, 2010 | Be the First To CommentIt's that time of the year again: that brief span of time in between Christmas and New Year's when journalists, critics, and cultural commentators scramble to define an arbitrary block of time even before that block is over with. To speculate on what 2010 will be remembered for is purely that: speculation. But the lists, summaries, and editorials reflecting on the events, accomplishments, failures, and occurrences of 2010 no doubt shape future debate over what January 1-December 31, 2010 will be remembered for personally, nostalgically, and historically. How we refer to the present frames how it is represented in the future, even when contradictions arise over what events should be valued from a given year. In an effort to begin that framing process, what I offer here is not a critical list of great films, but one that points out dominant cultural conversations, shared trends, and intersecting topics (both implicit and explicit) that have occurred either between the films themselves or between films and other notable aspects of American social life in 2010. As this column attempts to establish week in and week out, movies never exist in a vacuum, but instead operate in active conversation with one another. Thus, a movie's cultural context should never be ignored. So, without further adieu, here is my overview of the Top 10 topics, trends, and events of the year that have nothing to do with the 3D debate.

Thousands of people are expected to head to Avila Beach Thursday as the Tour of California racers cross the ocean-front finish line of Stage 5.
With the influx of visitors, parking and access to and from Avila is an issue.
Already on Tuesday, no parking signs were posted all over town.
Race officials suggest finding an alternative spot to watch the race because Avila will be extremely crowded.
Mary Foppiano of the Avila Beach Civic Association said the small town has never had as many as 5,000 to 7,500 people in the area at one time.
"You may not be able to get in or out," said Foppiano. "You can get in if you have one of the passes that they are giving out to residents and people who work here."
If you don't have a pass, plan to get into Avila by noon. Don't use Ontario Road unless you are on foot or on a bike.
"Avila Beach is no parking, San Luis Bay Drive is no parking, and parts of Ontario are no parking," said California Highway Patrol Officer John Townsen.
Public parking is limited but there are a few lots you can park in. The Bob Jones trail head has free parking. Avila Valley Barn has parking, but for a fee. You can buy a space at the fruit stand on the corner of See Canyon Road and San Luis Bay Drive. Avila Beach Golf Course will have 1,500 free spots on the 10th and 18th fairways. Port San Luis can also park about 300 cars at no charge.
There will be a free shuttle taking people to and from the finish line; however, consider a back-up plan because these lots are expected to fill quickly, and expect other possible closures during the day.
"We will close San Luis Bay first, north and south," Officer Townsen said. "Avila Beach Drive will be the second to close, if need be."
Once the off-ramps are closed, the only way in is on foot or by bike.
There will be a bike valet available at First Street near the golf course.
Be aware that other roads will have temporary rolling closures when the racers pass through. CHP said those closures should last five to ten minutes.
Authorities stress planning ahead to avoid a parking ticket or getting towed. Parking fines start at $53. Getting towed could cost you hundreds of dollars.

St. Louis, MO – Two St. Louis police officers were injured Monday night while chasing three suspects.
They were following an SUV carrying suspects thought to have robbed a person at gunpoint. But the police cruiser struck another SUV, injuring two other people in that car.
One officer had critical but not life-threatening injuries; the other officer and two women in the other car are also expected to recover.

My front yard is a native wildflower meadow (with a separate daylily/oriental lily section and some bearded iris), with sages and agastaches down the side. The grass is tufted hairgrass. A prairie needs more grass than forbs, even though the wildflowers are so colorful.
The side yard is filled with veggies and herbs.
The backyard has a blue grama meadow lawn, seeded June 2003. I'm hoping it grows well next year but I've never done this before. The back corner of this yard is more of a meadow with purple needlegrass, calochortus bulbs, lupines, blazing star, bird's eye gilia and a LOT of California poppies.

Experimentation and Change in Facebook Marketing: ...
In every kind of business platform, greater risk always produces the extremities. Sometimes, always opting to go on the safe side may not really be safe for your business.
Moreover, in an almost digital dictated world, everything should and will change at an instant. Just take for example the social media sites. Everything in those sites, especially in Facebook, becomes irrelevant in a very short period of time. This is why businesses of any caliber, for that matter, should invest in experimentation and change.
Using Facebook as a marketing platform for your business involves a greater advantage because of its scope of demography. But other businesses are not able to garner success because they do not know how to maximize itspotential. Many go and buy Facebook likes, which is actually helpful as well.
Here are some guides on how to experiment on Facebook to put your pages to a higher level.
1. Scheduling your Posts
You have to take into consideration the time where most people are practically online for your ads and posts to be seen at a larger scale. This is just one part of the strategy. There will be times that you have to post even in not so traffic times; this is to make you and your business more consistent.
You also have to consider greatly on what you will be posting, this is the most crucial part of scheduling posts. You have to know what and how many to post in a given time. For example, you may want to post about something light in the morning and something more aggressive in the afternoon.
After deciding to this, you now have to change them or just reverse. This is so that you have something to compare about. Match them and see which works best, then apply them.
2. Give Emphasis on Current Events
People always want to look at something or read something that they may care about. The current events involve a great deal of scope. From what movies are now blockbuster hits, to what is now happening to the Pope, to will there be a typhoon somewhere. Most of the time, people will want to relate with these current events as these will be affecting their lives in the future.
3. Involve the FacebookCrowd in Decision Making
Your followers and fans are your main resource in Facebookmarketing. Aside from them being likers and sharers of your page and posts, make them feel more important by asking for their help in some decision making. The decisions are of course not grave ones. They may have to be just a little petty. Like for example, what might be a better color or design for the packaging of your product?
4. Relate and get Personal
People mostly remember those things that gave them something to ponder about, or even, something to reminisce. Post something that may give your followers and fans that "awwww" moment. Integrate your brand in these moments; for example, post something about how mothers are the best on a mother's day. The key term here is being SOCIAL.
Remember that in doing all these, different techniques and appearances or situations are involved. In experimentation, you have to think of many things to compare so that you can arrive at which gives the more positive feedback and this process will take up much of your time, effort and sometimes money. Remember, High Risk equals High Return.

looking to install linux as server for 3rd pc

Pretty much all of the main distributions will run the same applications. Debian based will run them differently then Redhat based. It's really up to you and you're preferences. No one can really help you decide because you know what you like best.
Personally I like Debian based distributions because I do not like dealing with RPMs. The way the system works is easier for my mind to understand then Redhat based distributions... I haven't used a Redhat based distribution for about five years though. It really is up to you.
There are many test like this one out there that will help you to asses which distribution would suit you best.

Third tier class requirements for Ohio
0Nov 22, '13 by 11nickThe carriculum at Ohio specifies 1st, 2nd, and 3rd Tier courses required to meet their Gen Ed requirements. Has anyone had a class transferred/accepted into this 3rd tier slot? The ones they recommend appear to be in-depth, life-, energy-, and enjoyment-sucking courses! Hoping to find something else I can take (or have already taken) that can transfer in.
At this point, I've only applied and had transcripts sent in. I'm waiting to hear back from them. I probably won't be starting core nursing courses until summer. Have stats and nutrition to knock out this spring, so not in a big hurry right now. Hopefully everything else transfers in. May have another class to take, but hopefully not! -
0Nov 23, '13 by Blondenurse83I have a previous bachelors degree in history and political science, and my history capstone class (400 level I believe) was accepted for the tier 3 requirement. Good luck!
0Nov 23, '13 by BacktotheBeach, BSN, RNI think the last nursing class meets this requirement. Look for NUR 4600.
0Nov 23, '13 by cincinursemaryMy advisor told me 4600 is the Tier 3 course for this program. You will be lucky if you only have the nsg courses and 2 others. Do you have an ARTS, JR Composition, Philisophy Course already? I think these are requirements beyond the Gen Ed courses. Good Luck. Let us know if everything transfers in.
0Nov 23, '13 by Blondenurse83I was thinking of the junior level comp, not the third tier. 4600 does meet the third tier.
0Nov 23, '13 by 11nickWell.... maybe you'd be willing to throw in your 2 � since the folks at OU are so poor at communicating with prospective/future students....
It appears that it is a requirement for every educational institution to make their catalogs and course descriptions so complex in wording and description that you must first have majored in law, as well as had a minor in collegiate technical writing.
I don't see where philosophy is specifically required. It 'appears' that it is one of a range of classes that fulfills the 'Humanities and Literature' portion. I realized after making my original post that I also needed to fill that "hole" in my Gen Eds. The local community college has an online World Religions class that is supposed to be a quick, easy class, and, according to the OU catalog, it 'appears' that it will fulfill that Humanities slot in Gen Eds. If you know I am incorrect, please, please, please speak up! I tried talking to an advisor the other day and they didn't seem too interested in providing any guidance to me until I was officially christened an accepted OU-ite.
If, by ARTS, you mean 'Fine Arts'.... I have a music appreciation class that seems will fit the bill.
Your JR Composition as thrown me, though. Briefly reading over the description, I thought I had it covered. Now that I actually read the description of the classes.... I'm not so sure. Did you have to take this through OU? It seems like it would be a time consuming, research-heavy class. Was it? -
0Nov 24, '13 by BacktotheBeach, BSN, RNThey are actually very generous in accepting courses, but it is a huge pain wading through it now. It sounds like the Music appreciation will work. JR comp should be most junior/senior level writing classes from a four year college, it can't be from an associates program. And Jr comp at OU is an easy class, BTW.
I am linking you to a form you could try to fax them. I understand they may not want to evaluate if you are not a current student, but its worth a try ?http://www.outreach.ohio.edu/bsn/documents/TransferCreditAppealForm.pdf
I would not take anything else that you don't know for sure will transfer. If you are coming from another college in Ohio, this transfer module may help. https://www.ohiohighered.org/transfe...module/modules -
0Nov 24, '13 by woodsyny, BSN, RN11nick, make sure you call or speak to your advisor if you have one if they have received all of your transcripts. Jr Comp is Business Communications at OU and is a 15 week class but very easy, BUT it has to come from a 4 year college. They were very good at accepting credits, some of mine were over 30 years old! Music appreciation should transfer as one of the fine arts classes. You will also need microbiology and nutrition also.
0Nov 24, '13 by 11nickI already have Micro, as it was required for my Associates program. I find it odd and frustrating how things are not more similar between programs. Total credits and specific course requirements for one school are not the same as any other program out there. Every single one is different. I don't have stats, and, although it is required in most RN-to-BSN programs, it isn't required in all in a few of them. Philosophy is required in some, but others want a similar humanities course. Micro was a requirement for me to enter my Associates program, but it apparently isn't required for all. Most BSN courses require Nutrition, but some (OU) require it to be the 'health nutrition', which is an easier course; and others require the BIO nutrition class, which is much more in depth.
Regardless, the 5 week classes is the 'hook' for me for OU. I've just relented and accepted the fact that every program is going to require a different set of required classes I have to take to get up to their standards. So I'm just jumping on the idea of 5 week classes. If there were another accredited RN to BSN program with 5 week classes, I'd shop it pretty hard.

Another Eagle Charge |
This Eagle Charge was written by Marty Frongillo of Troop 18, Milford, MA, in the spring of 1989. As written, it is appropriate for a group of new Eagle Scouts. Marty points out that the part before the "PAUSE" could easily be modified as necessary to fit the situation. The actual charge comes after that. Let me first offer my congratulations to these fine young men for attaining the rank of Eagle Scout, Scouting's highest degree. Would the candidates please stand. As you may know, the adult leaders in Scouting do not get paid to be a part of the Scouting program: we volunteered. We made a commitment to make Scouting part of our lives, just as YOU made a commitment months, and perhaps years, ago to earn the rank of Eagle Scout. We adults reap satisfaction from moments and events like this one. The participation of our efforts in your lives makes it all worth while. You may now take satisfaction with yourselves, that you have earned the Eagle rank. [Take a deep breath and reflect for a moment.] All of the work, the fun, the pain, the good times and the bad times, all paid off. The cold mornings, the pine-needles in your pancakes, the muddy and rainy camp-outs now are just fond memories. Something to laugh about and share with others. This award was not given to you, not a gift. Instead, you set goals, made some sacrifices and worked to achieve these goals. This is a moment which you will never forget. The fact that you have earned Scouting's highest award tells the world something about you; if you put your mind to it, you can accomplish anything. Your participation in the Boy Scouts of America does not have to end here. Instead, you may now join all of the past and present adults involved in Scouting, who have given of themselves to help boys achieve the same satisfaction that you are feeling right now. Give back to the program what it gave to you. Commitment is only one aspect of your character that the world will expect from you, as Eagle Scouts. At this time I would like to invite all Eagle Scouts present, to come forward and rededicate themselves to the ideals of Scouting. [PAUSE...] Eagle candidates __________ and __________, I charge you to live with honor. An Eagle's honor is sacred, for it is the foundation of all character. Character is what you really are deep down inside, not what you think you are. May the white on your badge remind you to live with honor. I charge you to be loyal. Without loyalty, all character lacks direction. An Eagle is loyal to his ideals. As Shakespeare said, "To thine own self be true." The blue on your badge is a reminder to be loyal. I charge you to be courageous. Courage gives all character force and strength. Trust in God, and have faith in your fellow man. Face each day unafraid and seek your share of the world's work to do. Let the red on your badge remind you always to have courage. I charge you to give service. Make the habit of the daily Good Turn come forth in a life of service. I will now ask you to make the scout sign and repeat after me: I realize my obligation to my fellow man to my home, my country, and my God, I will at all times do my best to assist others to live with honor, loyalty, courage and service and to be a living example of the the Scout Oath and Law to the best of my ability. |

ICARE News
By Dee Crane
ICARE (Cancer Assistance & Recovery Effort) hosted a 'Wacky-Tacky' Tea Party Feb. 13 at Krystal Café. It was a light-hearted wacky costume fundraising event that brought in $1193. A small silent auction was held as well as a corny ring toss. Folks enjoyed the afternoon with tea and chocolates, wine and snacks and of course seeing the outlandish attire was a lot of fun.
We appreciate Kelly at the Krystal Café for generously letting us use the Café and helping us so much. We would like acknowledge Sandy Clay, at Dining on the Edge and Glenwood IGA for supporting the event, and to all who attended and made the day such a fun and successful time.
Upcoming community yard sale
`Saturday, March 20th will be the 2nd annual ICARE Community Yard Sale at the Armory on Hwy 12 in Orofino.

Limited vender spaces will be available on a first come first served basis. Again, this year spaces are 10' X 15' and are $25 each or 2 for $45.
Call to reserve your space. Dee Crane 476-5971

found a new home!
Plenty of my friends are looking
for one too. Find a pet to adopt.
Find a pet to adopt |
My name is Dakota!
Facts about Dakota
- Breed: Labrador Retriever Mix
- Color: Black - With White
- Age: Puppy
- Size: Large 61-100 lbs (28-45 kg)
- Sex: Male
Dakota's Info...
I am already neutered, housetrained, up to date with shots, good with kids, good with dogs, and good with cats.
Dakota had a sweet smile and a sweet personality to match. He's a happy, bouncing boy and will grow to be a large dog. Take a look at those feet! He's house trained, crate trained, and plays perfectly with other dogs. He's been with all six of his litter mates since birth and enjoyed several weeks during his development with his Mom. He's received excellent care in FOR foster homes and is now ready for adoption. To meet Dakota, please email email@example.com. Dakota is fostered in Huntsville, AL. Take a look at his video as well -- to see him with his litter mates when they were babies ;).
Other Pets at Friends of Rescue - Marietta Chapter
Why Adoption is a Great Option
Dakota, a Marietta Labrador Retriever puppy was adopted! Here's how you can benefit by looking at adoption as an option to buying a Labrador Retriever for sale in Marietta, or seeking a Labrador Retriever puppy from a breeder in Marietta.
- Rescues and shelter volunteers in Marietta already know the personality and tendencies of their pets. This means they can match you with the right pet. That will makes it much easier transition to owning a pet for yourself and your new pet.
- On average adoption fees are much less than you'd pay a Marietta breeder, or pet store. Plus most often rescue pets have already been to the veterinarian for a check-up, had a round of vaccinations, and are spayed or neutered. That is a lot of savings!
- You will become a hero, and give a needy dog or cat a loving home. In fact, there are even Labrador Retriever breeders who help with Labrador Retriever rescue. One puppy or kitten adopted in Marietta paves the way for another one to be saved.
