Add a Comment"Brought my car there after it was hit on the freeway. The staff was very friendly and Anthony Brasco did an amazing job! My husband is very picky about his car and since he is away in Korea, he was worried about how the work would turn out. My husband was very impressed with the way the car turned out. I told Anthony i needed the car by a certain day, and he made sure i had it by that day. The paint job turned out way better than i expected and the headlight was replaced.

0Sep 5, '11 by ea102dancingnurses13- you sent me a personal message about emory- but i dont have the ability to send those yet. what information are you looking for. i did the absn-msn program in FNM. i just started the masters portion. you just apply once for both programs. i am enjoying the program so far. the clinical sites have been amazing, some classes were not as great- but of course that all depends on the professor. financial aid has been a problem for some. emory is costly and they financial aid is not the best. many people get some financial aid then look for loans, scholarships, grants, etc. it is a little hectic because you dont get summers off with the Absn program. its straight through for 15 months. Emory does have a segue program that is the BSN in 2 years and you do get summers off. we also only had 2.5 weeks between the BSN and MSN portion. some of the specialties (FNM and others) start then clinicals in october so you have take and pas the NCLEX before then. many of us took it within the 2 weeks vacation or first week of school. so be prepared to not have a lot of time off!
so far the masters portion has been fantastic. the professors in the FNM program are experts in their field and try to work with you if you want a certain placement for a clinical site. you do not have to choose your clinical site, there is a coordinator that does that for you. but if there is a group that you wish to work with they will try to get a contract with them so you can.
i hope this helps. please let me know if you have any other questions. -

Cat abandoned in condemned house - 12 Feb 2009
Catskill, NY, Feb 12, 2009
A call came in from a concerned neighbor, stating that the house next door had been condemned a week earlier and that there was still a cat inside - apparently without food, water or care - after more than a week.
A call to the local police allowed Animalkind to enter the building and look for the kitty. The place was filthy. Used clothing, kitchen utensils, etc. were flung everywhere.
We set a trap and within 2 hrs., we brought the kitty to safety.
Little sweet kitty, after her rescue. She was starving after being locked in the house for more than a week, and a bit timid, but after the first petting, she couldn't get enough attention! She is a lovely female cat that deserves a second chance in a loving home.
UPDATE 13 May 2009
Happy ending: Amaretto found her forever loving home!

This success is due to our team of collectors negotiating the highest settlement possible based on the merits of each Workers' Compensation case AND dictating the payment terms.
With the other financial classes, our team of collectors work with carriers to get claims processed promptly. EOBs are reviewed to ensure the proper payment was received according to the particular plan and complex reimbursement guidelines. Incorrectly paid claims are resubmitted for additional payment.
In summary, our collection success stems from having dedicated team members that have actual Hands-On experience in the critical areas of front office, medical billing, coding, medical records and payment processing. They know how to calculate and use OMFS, APC, P & I, and other payment formulas for Work Comp and other financial classes, which is a critical component in maximizing collections. We believe with this combination of skills, it gives our team a definite EDGE in obtaining the highest level of settlement or reimbursement possible on all financial classes for a variety of providers.
We can help improve your collections and generate more Cash Flow for your practice or facility, especially if you have old aged accounts that are not being successfully worked. Call (310) 963-7877 Now!!

Monthly Technical Outlook, May 2012: EURUSD
EURUSD: With the pairs weakness spilling into May, there is likelihood of further declines as the month progresses. In such a case, the 1.2993 level will come in as the immediate support where a breach will pave the way for a run at 1.2620 level, its Jan 2012 low. A cut through here will set the stage for more declines towards its 200 monthly ema at 1.2536 level where a break will turn attention to its key support at the 1.2192 level. Its monthly RSI is bearish and pointing lower supporting this view. On the upside, resistance lies at the 1.3378 level where a violation if seen will call for a move higher towards 1.3484 level. Further out, the 1.3872 level will come in as the next upside target. Overall, EUR remains susceptible to the downside as it looks to weaken further.

Favorite really drought tolerant annuals? I have a spot with LOTS of heat and sun that's impractical to water often besides the other plants (perennials etc.) that I've got there what annuals can take drought? But of course ones that wouldn't suffer to much with a few New Jersey rain storms..... :) |

Try some "Madagascar periwinkle" (it's an upright vinca). I recall one year buying some for my mother (and grabbing the flat thinking they were impatiens) and saw the different type of leaf after planting. They were put in a south-facing concrete troughs during the hot hot summer of '99 and hardly got watered and they didn't blink an eye and flowered all summer when everyone else's flowering plants had given up the ghost. These come in all sorts of colors too. |
- Posted by lazygardens Sunset Zone 13 (My Page) on Sat, May 21, 05 at 12:16
Try "Indian Blanket" (Gaillardia), desert Zinnias, etc. They need some water to get them started, but after that, NJ rainfall is plenty for them. Also, Portulaca |
- Posted by summergirl Houston/zone 9 (My Page) on Wed, Jun 15, 05 at 16:00
Not an annual in my area but Lantana can really go without water..We are having a dry spell and of course it is hot and lantana are going stronger than ever. |
Gazanias and portulacas are very drought tolerant, they seem to love bad soil and thrive on blistering hot temperatures. Wow -- what great plants for Chicago this year! The other nice thing about gazanias is that they are among the last plants to stop blooming in late fall. Mine went until November last year. |

California poppies do well here (NE Oregon). In fact, in one place, they have escaped a yard where they were planted, and have been reproducing naturally for many years on a hillside, without watering. They are still blooming, although we have had very little rain since May or June, and it is mid-August, now. I don't know how they would do in your area. Here, as in California, we have dry summers. |
- Posted by turkeyfarm (My Page) on Thu, Aug 18, 05 at 17:21
Try Melampodium. Grows 1-2 ft. high in sturdy little bushes that are covered by midsummer with bright yellow daisy-type flowers that never need deadheading, never bothered by insect pests, and are maintenance-free. I find it hard to grow by seed, so look for it in flats in spring, where it's becoming more available in garden centers. Select Seeds offers it if you want to try it that way, and I have found it occasionaly self seeds. Very useful annual for the busy or lazy or water-short gardener! |

Michael Gregory and Keith Anthony were near 19th Avenue and Connecticut Street when the man said he was robbed of $10 at 2 a.m.
Man was stabbed over name used
A 60-year-old Ambridge area man told police he was stabbed in the neck late Tuesday night by a man he knows.
Jimmy Jude told police he was in the 1500 block of Fillmore Street about 11 p.m.
The suspect was upset about a name Jude had called him earlier, Jude said. He was cut in the neck with a pocket knife.
Man sentenced to four years' prison
A Gary man was sentenced to four years for burglary.
Charles Anthony Roy Sr., 22, was given credit for the 149 days he's spent in the Lake County Jail. The balance of his sentence will be served in the Lake County Sheriff's work release program. Roy also must pay $2,100 in restitution to Tina Pickett, whose home Roy burglarized Nov. 3 in the 300 block of South Grand Boulevard in Gary.
Roy and an accomplice pried open a door and stole three televisions, a tablet computer, laptop computers and cash.
Man admits in court he uses heroin
Timothy Monik, arrested Monday night and charged with criminal mischief, turned to his girlfriend, the alleged victim, and told Gary City Court Judge Deidre Monroe she didn't want to pursue the case.
"It's not up to her, it's up to the state," Monroe said.
Patrolman John Street arrested Monik, 29, of 2800 Hamlin St. after seeing Monik carrying a glass container of gasoline.
His girlfriend, Marissa Maxberry, 30, had refused to drive him to a friend's house and Monik became angry.
"I hit her tail light with the back of a knife," he said.
Lake Deputy Prosecutor Rosemary Lynch said Monik also threatened to set the woman's car on fire.
Monroe asked Monik about the two syringes police found. He admitted he used heroin and said he "needed some classes" to deal with his drug problem.
Monroe set his trial for Aug. 22 and his bond at $750 cash only.

PHOENIX - The City Council in Scottsdale is poised to approve a $350,000 contract with a law firm it has hired to defend a former officer in a wrongful death lawsuit over the last of his six fatal shootings.
The Arizona Republic reports the city hired Struck, Wieneke & Love to defend former officer James Peters from a suit filed by the relatives of John Loxas and the American Civil Liberties Union.
Peters fatally shot Loxas after police were called to his house. He was unarmed and holding his 7-month-old grandson in his doorway when Peters shot him in the head.
The shooting was the officer's seventh since 2002.
Another firm is defending the city and other officials. The Council considers the contract on Nov. 13.

We are the real (and original) 360 Media despite attempts by many to copy our name, our business model, logo and even our website design! In 2001, 360 Media was created to provide clients with a one-stop shop and consulting expertise on the emerging and rapidly evolving world of digital media. In 2002, we snagged the 360Media.com domain name from an Australian company supposedly in the credits of the first Matrix movie (though we still never checked..) and decided to go in another direction. With a new domain and website in hand, we worked rigorously to get new clients at a time when many did not fully believe in the medium and if it would be worth it.
Fortunately, we landed our first big client in the Philadelphia Eagles. Having a big name behind you, and working on some amazing and innovative projects, meant we could expand into more areas and grow further as a company. Over the next eight years, we helped clients all over the globe on various digital projects and campaigns. By 2007, the majority of our business was focused on video and helping online retailers become their own QVC® through social media and online videos. We launched LiveClip, one of the first online video sharing sites, and VideoSpokesmodel.com- one of the first online talent and video ad production companies.
By 2009, we made a big shift into mobile and social media and helped bring our clients into the new social, local, mobile wave. This eventually led to the launch of social media and mobile apps, social media ad campaigns, social video marketing campaigns, mobile ads and Facebook strategies.
360 Media has always strived to stay one step ahead and to provide innovative insights and solutions to our clients as a partner and not just another vendor. We treat every client as if they are our most important – whether you are one of the world's largest hotel chains or a small retail store. We hope these next ten years can be even more successful than the last as we look forward to working with many more new clients and employing truly amazing people.

What do you know about Odd Future?
Apr 30 2011 5:31 AM | Chamillionaire in News
keep getting fans emailing me asking me how come I don't ever say anything about what I think of Odd Future and my response is because I don't know much about them. Also because I don't see why anyone would expect me to say anything about them anyways. I know they have been getting a lot of press in the industry and they seem to be gaining the interest of a lot of people but most people that I see talking about them can never really tell me any of their songs when I ask. It kinda reminds me of the people that mention Ghetto Boys as one of the greatest groups from the South but can't name any of their songs. To be clear, I'm not at all trying to imply that they are just hype. I have watched the Yonkers video (below) repeatedly just like a lot of other people and can definitely understand why it has so many views. I have also read multiple interviews and can honestly say that I like how rebellious they are when it comes to speaking their minds. I just want to know what you can tell me about the songs in their catalog? Did you listen to them before everyone else started talking about them?

hmmm i don't like it. I don't want to hate but i don't feel that track , the beat and the video
I don't like it at all. They're creepy, disturbing and just.....oh man words cannot describe how wrong this video is.
I don't know much about them but that Frank Ocean CD "Nostalgia" is nice. OG Ron C & DJ Candlestick did a Chopped Not Slopped version of it.
They're good, but overhyped
They all have a pretty solid collection of work.
These are some of my favorites:
StripClub, Supermarket, TangGolf, Bastard, Earl, Luper, Epar, Moracular World, OrangeJuice, Drop, Sandwhiches, Dat Ass, Round and Round, French, Chordaroy, Rolling papers, pigions
pretty much every album or mixtape they put out has a lot of decent stuff
Yeah they do actually have some pretty good songs. I like Bastard, Odd Toddlers, French!, AssMilk, Orange Juice, Drop, Round and Round, Swag Me Out, Turn Down, DeadDeputy, and Fuck Police. They have Goblin coming out on May 10th too and this is their first official album so it will be interesting to hear how it sounds
People say they are the future of hip hop. I say they are a breath of fresh air. I dont have a strong opinion, but Wolf Gang is hella rebelious, but sometimes I feel Tyler spits cruel shit just because.
Man if this track is anything to go by they are the future the future of welfare i dont feel this at all just seems like spit something to piss people off get bad press sell out buy all the shit i said i didnt need. just sounds like a black insane clown posse.
yeah tyler is good i like him he says some good stuff
This fool stinks, I listen and smell the scent of whack....
I agree.
never heard of em.
Honestly, they seem like they are a new school kind of Eminem and I heard a couple of their songs and they are not bad lyrically. But I think what is so significant about them is that they literally signed themselves to their own deal and between those guys and Lupe Fiasco, the "industry" is not looking too strong right now.
I've only listened to a few of their tracks and I liked them. I can't say I'm a fan yet, but I enjoy their music when it's playing. I listen to Frank Ocean, one of the members, a lot and he makes great music. He's an R&B artist.
i think they're kind of pathetic people just like them because they're new. itll pass..
ell yea i been jamming them since i saw them perform on TV a month or so ago... I like the fact they got something to say...something thats not the same thing everyone else is saying... Tylers first album Bastard had some crazy shit in it but i thought it was dope
I heard about them before they got really big. I like that they were able 2 make it while being recognized as an atheist group of kids. It show people are becoming more open minded.
left brain is a great producer
more like wayward future. no hate.
nope all i heard bout them was one them of dissed B.o.B and B.o.B wrecked him in the diss song
Haven't heard, seems like odd fellas truly. Can't comment much further, no real experience on this squad. No hate.
Been bumpin Yonkers for awhile now, and more recently Tron Cat. Yonkers was the first song I heard from these guys but I went and listened to a bunch of their older stuff after that, like Earl's self titled album which is dope. Tyler The Creator's Goblin album should be freakin' swag if all the tracks are like the two I mentioned...
wtf was the only thing i could think of when the music faded out and the vid ended
They're fake as shit, the kids act like they're hard and don't give a fuck about what people say but then they pose for pictures with Justin Bieber. Tyler is talented, but they're nothing special they just appeal to the underground crowd. Odd Future is just another name nobody will remember a year from now.
This just goes to show how many of you have never REALLY listened to the Odd Future group members. Tyler does the crazy, killing and rape whatever stuff. Bet you guys didn't know there is an r&b singer in the group, and pretty much everyone besides Tyler and Earl would be widely accepted if you heard them without the "Odd Future" name attached to them. I've listened to just about all of them and they all have different sounds from each other.
I respect them for doing what they love to do at the moment. I believe they are talented but what i dont like is that people are trying to throw them into a category and keep their career bordered within it. I heard many of their interviews and i believe that they have the drive to overcome alot of hate and dumbass press and stay in this rap game for years to come. This interview right here made me respect them more http://www.youtube.c...h?v=-OoZNENl0Cg .

Re: Zorro: The Complete Seasons 1 and 2
We just wanted to thank you for your review of the "Zorro" TV show. Because of your review, we watched the entire first season and our whole family loves it, even our kindergartener!
Thanks for your kind note. I'm glad your family is enjoying "Zorro"! Our three-year-old boy loves it, and even the two-year-old is riveted by the theme song and will sometimes watch for awhile, especially if Zorro is onscreen.

WE HAVE DEFIED the odds. Were marriage a betting proposition our odds of success would have been right there with the Houston Astros. For those of you who are into such pursuits, we beat the over under by 24 years. This week, my wife and I celebrated 25 years of marriage — who'da thunk it?
Don't get me wrong; my wife was a safe bet. It was I who defied the odds.
I got married the first time when I was 22 years old going on 14. I was no more prepared for the realities of life than, let's say, your average chimpanzee. That marriage
and even that probably had to do with my ex-wife's knowledge that I was totally incapable of living independent of those who somehow dealt with pesky things like responsibility.
I'm proud to say that my ex-wife and her husband remain good friends of my wife and mine. I know — the nuclear family and all that stuff, but she was good enough to see that at roughly age 40 I had finally decided to take off the lampshade and stop running off to Nepal with somebody I'd met at a carwash 15 minutes earlier.
Puberty for me ended in the fourth decade of my life. I think what really did it is that I got so tired of the dating scene that I found myself making up stories to the next Mrs. Tompkins because I was so bored with hearing myself tell the truth so many times.
There are women walking around the streets of San Francisco today who think I'm a podiatrist, bull rider, enema bag manufacturer, goat herder, professional pick-up-sticks player or salami stuffer.
I met my wife 28 years ago through the urgings of a former sports columnist friend who asked me to "take care of her" in her new position as a columnist with the San Francisco Examiner. What a surprise when I realized he meant introduce her to people.
What I loved about her that first meeting was that she absolutely cared not one whit about whom I thought I was. And, for the first time — maybe ever — I thought about the word "commitment" in terms other than going to jail or the loony bin.
So, 25 years ago this week we went up to the Wine Country with 100 of our closest friends and family, and got married in the middle of a vineyard. We still agree it was the best party we've ever both had — and been to.
There were doubters. Come to think of it there were a lot of doubters. I was older, had a reputation of being something less than a stand-up guy, and had been single and crazy for 15 years. And that's not to mention that she's smarter, a better writer and a far more responsible human being than I. I got her when it comes to telling jokes and remembering who played third base for the 1952 Pittsburgh Pirates — so I guess we're even.
We went back to the Wine Country earlier this week and revisited where we got married, where we had the reception, where we stayed on our wedding night, who was at the wedding and where they are now.
Many are gone, many more are divorced and some have just kind of slipped off into the abyss. And here we were again — toasting ourselves with a glass of a lot better wine than we drank back in those days, and agreeing that we'd both do it all over again in exactly the same way.
In fact, I think I'll take her to Nepal.

Name: Engage
From: Glen Allen, Virginia
Web Site: n/a
Lifespan: 2005-2008
Genre: Power Metal
Best Release: EVERYTHING
Demo 2005
Don't Turn Back EP
Engage was a little power metal band from Virginia, and they were amazing. I got the pleasure of seeing them once or twice, all some seemingly high school guys belting out some major tunes. When I saw them life the set was peppered with a lot of cover songs because they were a young band, but I'll never knock a band for throwing in some Manowar covers. The band broke up in 2008 when they wanted to go a 'different direction musically'. Engage is missed.
REVIEW: Iron Man The Cal Ripken jr Story
December 15, 2009
Autobiographies and Biographies, Books, Reviews Baltimore, baltimore orioles, books, cal ripken, cal ripken jr, cal ripken sr, harvey rosenfeld, iron man, Lou Gehrig, orioles, review, Reviews Leave a comment
Harvey Rosenfeld tells the story of Cal Ripken jr, in 281 pages we get everything from Cal growing up and playing the sport for fun as a kid to Cal Ripken jr breaking Lou Gehrig's streak. The book even includes a great introduction by Cal Ripken sr. It's a pretty good intro to Cal Ripken Jr but not the best book in the world. On a scale of one to ten I'd have to give this one about a four. If you're a casual baseball fan with some time to kill you might want to check this one out but if you're looking for the definitive story about the all-star short stop I think we're all still waiting.

While the public may have an appreciation and awareness that the Obama administration has advanced the issue of local food over the past several years, he said a change in USDA leadership won't deter the appeal of the trend.
"As a phenomenon, I think (local food) will continue for the foreseeable future," he said.
Hoefner said Merrigan's Know Your Farmer, Know Your Food initiative was important to various USDA programs, including the farmers market promotion program, value-added producer grants and local food enterprise loan programs.
"The initiative gave it a nice way for people in various agencies to realize that they were doing something with a common purpose to it," he said.

Friday, May 6, 2005 - Page updated at 12:00 a.m. Movie Review Densely woven "Crash" explores race, power in L.A. Seattle Times movie critic "Crash," Paul Haggis' flawed but riveting tale of racism in contemporary Los Angeles, has moments so powerful they're instantly seared into your memory; you'll watch without blinking, barely breathing. In one, Christine (Thandie Newton), a wealthy, beautiful African-American woman, is trapped in an overturned car after an accident. A cop, Officer Ryan (Matt Dillon), struggles to remove her before the car bursts into flame; he's gentle and fearless. She looks at him with terrified eyes: He's the same cop who, the night before, taunted her husband and molested her. Now he's frantically working to save her life, as gasoline drips onto the pavement and time ticks excruciatingly on. A character we thought we'd figured out is suddenly different; not redeemed, but infinitely more complicated. Likewise, other characters in this crowded story challenge our initial perceptions. Early on, we meet a pair of young black men (Chris "Ludacris" Bridges and Larenz Tate) walking nervously in a posh suburban business district, full of, as they say, "overcaffeinated white people."
Movie review
"Crash," with Sandra Bullock, Don Cheadle, Matt Dillon, Jennifer Esposito, William Fichtner, Brendan Fraser, Terrence Howard, Chris "Ludacris" Bridges, Thandie Newton, Ryan Phillippe, Larenz Tate. Directed by Paul Haggis, from a screenplay by Haggis and Bobby Moresco. 107 minutes. Rated R for language, sexual content and some violence. Several theaters. These guys are snappy and funny, and we immediately like them — and learn, moments later, that they're carjackers. A Persian store owner (Shaun Toub) earns our sympathy when he is the victim of a robbery, then turns around with potentially violent revenge. Even Graham (Don Cheadle), the weary detective who serves as our moral touchstone, lazily refers to his partner (Jennifer Esposito) as Mexican when she isn't, and seems surprised when she's angry. The various stories — at least a half-dozen plot lines, loosely entwined with a generous helping of coincidence — unfold over two days in Los Angeles; it's around Christmastime, and the ever-present colored lights and decoration lend a jarring fairy-tale quality to this harsh drama. It's an ambitious, brave film, and Haggis deserves enormous credit for even attempting to address this tricky subject matter. But the talented writer of "Million Dollar Baby" may have benefited from a different director's eye, to help hone the material further. (The screenplay is credited to Haggis and Bobby Moresco, from a story by Haggis.) For a feature directing debut, "Crash" shows astonishing fearlessness and potential. But Haggis' directing skills aren't quite at the level of his writing; "Crash" is paced unevenly and attempts too much for its relatively brief running time. This sort of Altman-esque story needs more space to unfold; it's a challenge for even a directing master to keep this many hoops in the air. And some of the characters get short shrift, with their stories seeming poorly thought out. Sandra Bullock, a talented actress too often trapped in the wrong movie, suffers most here; she has little screen time as the angry wife of a district attorney (Brendan Fraser). She comes to learn, too quickly, that her rich friends are selfish and that her Hispanic maid is a better person than they. Unafraid to tweak her screen-sweetheart persona, Bullock pours herself into the role, but it's to no avail; the character is too thinly written to seem real. (It's a pleasure, though, to see Bullock stretching in this kind of role; she's long given hint of far more talent than her usually perky roles indicate.) For a story about race, "Crash" too often dwells in the other kind of black and white: that of who's good and who's bad. Some of the characters are as complex and vivid as any I've seen on screen; others are clearly intended as symbols, as in Bullock's rich white woman; some are simply glimpsed, tantalizingly. It's a richly populated movie, full of people with their own complicated stories, and sometimes it feels right that we only get a peek. Too often, though, we feel hurried along. But the performances are splendid, particularly the unforgettable, heartbreaking work by Cheadle, Newton and Dillon. And Haggis, as in "Million Dollar Baby," knows how to bore down into his character's souls and to reveal them to us. "You think you know who you are," says Ryan, at war with himself and the world. "You have no idea." Moira Macdonald: 206-464-2725 or email@example.com Copyright © 2005 The Seattle Times Company |

I am perplexed that I have so many daffodils that do not set blooms. The foliage is healthy appearing. They have enough nutrients in the gardens they are in. They have increased in number but NO flowers. Today I pulled out 100's of them and disposed of them. I do have some blooms but most plants do not bloom. This is the second or third year this has happened.
What is wrong ? |

Hey...me too, I don't have hundreds but I do have zero flowers! Helen. |
This can happen when they get too crowded. Try digging them up, spreading them out, and giving the extras to your friends. |
- Posted by heleninramsey 4 (My Page) on Fri, May 14, 10 at 8:38
I am pretty sure mine are not overcrowded, there are like 6 of them all in separate parts of the garden...I just fail at bulbs unless they are potted...LOL. |
- Posted by hoghaven_duluthmn (My Page) on Fri, May 14, 10 at 18:00
Two years ago, I had a lot of nonbloomers, and put down bone meal/bulb food, and made sure the foliage was not mowed until it died. Had tons of flowers last year, but got lazy and did not put down any more bone meal. This spring--2 flowers--and hubby has the kayaks parked over the top of them. I think I will put some bone meal on this weekend and do a little TLC, like moving the kayaks. |
- Posted by hoghaven_duluthmn (My Page) on Wed, May 19, 10 at 12:00
As an afterthought--I also cut off the spent blooms and flower stems, too. |

Nursing Students Take Top Honors at Statewide Competition

The mission of the religion program is to foster student spiritual and intellectual growth through the disciplined, critical study of religion. The four key aspects of this mission are to develop in students:
The religion faculty also teach four classes related to Greek language for the purpose of reading in relationship to religious studies.
In the study of religion, faculty and students work in the areas of ethics, religious studies, world religions, theology, church history, religious practices, sacred texts, including biblical texts, and the intersection of religion and culture The discipline intends to serve well students who pursue the study of religion as part of their journey of faith and vocation, as well as students whose interest in religion is more purely academic. In continuity with its historical tradition of more than 150 years of providing education for students preparing for Lutheran ministries, the department also provides support, guidance, and education for students preparing for various vocations within their communities, including church-related work, regardless of the students' denominational traditions.
Course requirements for all programs can be found in our Online Course Bulletin.
Classes are small to ensure individualized attention. In addition to the prescribed curriculum, religion majors organize and participate in campus and community activities as well as local and international service learning. Many work with the student congregation on campus, metropolitan ministries and Trinity Lutheran Seminary, which is adjacent to Capital's campus.
Each member of the religion faculty possesses a doctorate. Their specialties include ancient languages and literature, Christian ethics, New Testament, contemporary theology, history of theology, Asian religions and faith development.
Religion graduates are well prepared to attend graduate school or seminary. Other students enter the job market immediately upon graduation. Graduates of Capital's religion program are participating not only in ordained ministry both nationally and internationally, but also are working in an exceptionally wide variety of programs and occupations, demonstrating the value and flexibility of Capital's religion program.

Friday, March 10, 2006 - Page updated at 12:27 AM Former Panther leader runs against CantwellSeattle Times staff reporter Activist and former Black Panther Party leader Aaron Dixon announced his candidacy for the U.S. Senate Thursday, blasting incumbent Sen. Maria Cantwell for supporting the war in Iraq. Running on the Green Party ticket, Dixon refuted the conventional wisdom that he had little chance of success but could cost Cantwell, a Democrat, votes in the November election. "I don't look at myself as a spoiler. I am in this to win," he said, standing in front of a screen displaying the lives lost and dollars spent since the Iraq invasion. However, if both he and Cantwell lose, Dixon said: "I won't feel bad at all. Maria votes like a Republican." Cantwell was one of three Washington Democrats in Congress to authorize President Bush to use force against Iraq. She is the only member to stand by her vote; both Reps. Norm Dicks and Adam Smith said they were misled and would take a different position today. The first-term senator has criticized the administration's counter-insurgency and rebuilding efforts. Third parties traditionally do not fair well in statewide elections. In 2004, the Libertarian and Green Party candidates both earned about 1 percent of the vote. Incumbent Sen. Patty Murray, a Democrat, was re-elected with 55 percent. Dixon said this year would be different, citing weak support of the Iraq war. "If both the Republican challenger and Cantwell are in support of this war, then they are competing amongst themselves for the voters who are pro-war. I am anti-war." Dixon said the Green Party candidate in 2004, Mark Wilson, of Kitsap County, agreed not to seek the nomination this year. Wilson is now seeking the Democratic Party nomination for U.S. Senate.
Former insurance executive Mike McGavick is seeking the Republican nomination, as well as Brad Klippert of Kennewick, an evangelical Christian and major in the Army National Guard. Dixon co-founded the Seattle chapter of the Black Panther Party in April 1968. The Black Panthers started a free medical clinic, developed breakfast programs for schoolchildren and began the first urban summer camp in Seattle. In 2002, he founded a nonprofit called Central House to provide housing for youth. The Green Party, which traces its roots to ecological groups in Europe in the 1960s, is known for promoting a pro-environmental agenda. Many environmental groups laud Cantwell, who has fought oil drilling in the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge and an effort to bring more tankers into Puget Sound. Mike Palamuso, Northwest campaign manager for The League of Conservation Voters, said his group already has endorsed Cantwell and is doorbelling on her behalf. "She has been a leading environmental champion. She stood by us and we're going to stand by her," he said. Dixon conceded that Cantwell has scored good environmental marks, but those were outweighed by the war.

Justin Singletary: The Real Estate Ranger
You'd be hard-pressed to find a more diverse group of characters than those in the real estate profession—a broad and diverse field that appeals to many different kinds of people, from many different walks of life. Even by these standards, though, Justin Singletary is a unique individual. The self-described Real Estate Ranger—living and working in Savannah, Georgia—brings to his business a set of life experiences and values that set him apart from everyone else in the field. And that's saying something!
For starters, there is this: The Real Estate Ranger used to serve as an actual ranger in the U.S. Army—specifically, in the 1st Ranger Battalion, based out of Savannah. His professional nickname, in other words, is well-earned! Justin Singletary served valiantly in this special operations unit for six years, from 2001 to 2007, and saw combat deployment to both Iraq and Afghanistan. There are not many people who can make a similar claim, and Justin Singletary wisely uses this particular experience to his advantage, drawing on the lessons he learned about fast action and attention to detail in his everyday real estate dealings.
But Justin Singletary also draws on the principles the Armed Forces taught him about service. In their business, Justin Singletary and his Real Estate Ranger team employ what they call a "client-first" philosophy that puts them at the head of the class as far as customer service is concerned. Indeed, the Real Estate Ranger team is consistently singled out for their exemplary service and their client-oriented attitude. Theirs is a reputation of going above and beyond to meet the needs of their clients.
In addition to his professional life, however, Justin Singletary is a devoted giver to different charities, and that means donations of both his time and his money. Particularly noteworthy is his involvement with a group called Homes for Our Troops, which is essentially just what its name suggests—an organization that provides homes to our veterans, free of charge. It is probably fair to say, then, that Justin Singletary is very much an individual—someone who stands apart, even in the diverse field of real estate.

Media for the Message

Plasma manufacturers on house-of-worship applications.
Why should a house of worship choose plasma technology over other flatpanel displays for their installations?
Baumann: There are a few key benefits to using a plasma display versus an LCD in this type of venue. First, you can get larger plasma screen sizes for less money than comparable LCD displays. Also, plasmas have a high viewing angle, meaning that the picture can be seen easily from virtually any angle. In a house of worship, congregation members are sitting in many different positions in reference to the display's location. Easy viewing with a crystal-clear picture is important for these members, so they can read song lyrics and see videos without trouble.
DeManss: Plasmas have a much faster pixel-response time than LCD, meaning that motion video will appear sharp and clear in motion images, where LCDs tend to blur due to relatively slow response times. Even at 4 milliseconds, the LCD images will blur under certain motion conditions to the extent that even full-HD images in quick motion will appear with sub-SD video-resolution clarity.
There is also longevity to consider. PDPs [plasma display panels] are rated at 60,000 or 100,000 hours, and tend to be more reliable over time. [With] LCDs, while claiming [60,000-hour] durability, these ratings are typically measured in tightly controlled and non-real-world conditions (reduced brightness, running 24/7, etc.) to hide the effects of accelerated aging which occur every time an LCD is turned on or off. Also, as LCDs run at a higher brightness, the typical power supply is designed to maintain the set brightness level by "over driving" the circuits. This will accelerate aging while consuming more power over time.
Hale: Other reasons to choose plasma displays include better color rendition (blacks look black, etc.) and no motion blur on video. Plasma is also power efficient, which is good for houses of worship because it won't cause an increase in the electric bill. These applications should also be careful to select professional plasmas over consumer plasmas or LCD. The professional plasmas are built to be durable and flexible for multiple applications, while consumer plasmas are built to deliver a high-quality picture within a home theater environment.
Holmes: If the application is the display of schedules, events, images, or windowed video for information and signage purposes, then surely plasma should not be used because of the inherent risk of burn-in. However, if the unit is going to be used exclusively for full-screen video, then plasma is the right choice. While the gap is closing quickly, currently plasma technology still provides a better contrast ratio and better color depth than LCD.

I thought I would follow up on the last article – DSquared2 – and let you fellas in on what the meaning of colors is all about.
Our primal instincts are so important when it comes to selecting colors. Colors are visual and a lot is said when, well, you don't say anything at all. Like a red flag to a bull, we can mistakenly give out the right and wrong signals when we wear certain colors. What are goths saying silently to you, when they are in your company? Why do mothers wrap their baby boys in blue and baby girls in pink?
Tomorrow, just see what you do when you open your wardrobe in the morning. Are you reaching for the same ol' pair of jeans and a t-shirt? Or are you choosing your clothes pending on your mood. See your mood, has a lot to do with what you wear. But when you choose your attire to influence your mood, now that's a whole lot more fun. Wearing a look that has been strategically selected for the day will astound you. So let's take a look at some very influential colors and what is going to turn your day into a success, whether it is for that job, that girl or that party.
Meaning of the Color Blue
Blue is the overwhelming "favorite color." Blue is seen as trustworthy, dependable and committed. The color of the sky and the ocean, blue is perceived as a constant in our lives.
Meaning of the Color Green
Green occupies more space in the spectrum visible to the human eye. Green is the pervasive color in the natural world and in our world it is perceived as a constant. Green is seen as tranquil and refreshing, peaceful and ecological. It offers a sense of renewal, self-control and harmony.
Meaning of the Color Yellow
Yellow shines with optimism, enlightenment, and happiness. Shades of golden yellow carry the promise of a positive future. Yellow will advance from surrounding colors and instill optimism and energy, as well as spark creative thoughts.
Meaning of the Color Orange
There is usually strong positive or negative association to orange and true orange generally elicits a stronger "love it" or "hate it" response than other colors. Fun and flamboyant orange radiates warmth and energy. Interestingly, some of the tones of orange such as terra cotta, peach or rust have very broad appeal.
Meaning of the Color Red
Recognized as a stimulant red is inherently exciting and the amount of red is directly related to the level of energy perceived. Red draws attention and a keen use of red as an accent can immediately focus attention on a particular element. Passion, love, fiery, dominate are all words associated with this color.
Meaning of the Color Purple
A sense of mystic and royal qualities, purple is a color often well liked by very creative or eccentric types and is the favorite color of adolescent girls.
Meaning of the Color Brown
Brown says stability, reliability, and approachability. It is the color of our earth and is associated with all things natural or organic.
Meaning of the Color White
White projects purity, cleanliness, and neutrality. Doctors don white coats, brides traditionally were white gowns and a white picket fence surrounds a safe and happy home.
Meaning of the Color Gray
Gray is timeless, practical, and solid. A longstanding favorite suit color, gray can mix well with any color. Always well like and often worn.
Meaning of the Color Black
Black is authoritative and powerful; because black can evoke strong emotions too much can be overwhelming. A classic color for clothing possibly because it makes the wearer appear thinner and more sophisticated.

Series five, episode one
The Comic Relief takeover of sturdy BBC formats steps up a gear for this fifth series of 'Let's Dance for Comic Relief'. Details remain mostly underwraps, but you can probably expect a fair bit of crossdressing, a clutch of more comfortably built celebs attempting unfeasibly acrobatic routines and, you never know, the odd instance of genuinely impressive hoofing.
Confirmed participants for the four heats include quickfire gag man Tim Vine, retired boxer Ricky Hatton, impressionist Jon Culshaw and ventriloquist Nina Conti, the latter surely doing a routine based around 'The Jungle Book's' chimp-human face-off 'I Wanna Be Like You'. Well, it's all in a good cause, etc, etc.
