StarWars.com's Pete Vilmur interviews Anne Neumann, Steve Sansweet's collection manager and co-author of the upcoming 1,000 Collectibles.
(The book isn't out until November 17, which makes a hell of a lot more sense than last Thursday.)
StarWars.com's Pete Vilmur interviews Anne Neumann, Steve Sansweet's collection manager and co-author of the upcoming 1,000 Collectibles.
(The book isn't out until November 17, which makes a hell of a lot more sense than last Thursday.)
A single, solitary comic this Wednesday: Legacy #40, the conclusion of the 'Tatooine' storyline. I find myself hoping that Morrigan shots Cade (not a spoiler: look at the cover;) if only to put us him out of his fail spiral.
As for books, both Amazon and B&N are showing a release date of October 1st for Steve Sansweet's 1,000 Collectibles: Memorabilia and Stories from a Galaxy Far, Far Away. A Thursday? Does that just mean there is no official release date? In any case, go ahead and start looking but don't count on anything.
So it's technically the 'Birth of Darth Vader Battle Pack,' (battle pack?) and it's probably one of those dealies that only collectors are going to buy but you know, still. Nothing says fun times like the Imperial burn ward!
A few things I've been micro-blogging @clubjade lately. (300 followers and counting…)
Wowza. Danny Choo discovered Cho Woong's incredible Star Wars room. I'm not normally a fan of collector chic, but for this guy I'm willing to make an exception.
Lists. Empire Strikes Back comes in at #6 on Empire's list of the top 50 movie sequels, while Return of the Jedi clocks in at #21. Meanwhile, Star Wars is one of Geek Tyrant's five films that changed the way people look at sci-fi movies. And Cracked checks out the five strangest post-Star Wars careers.
Tee. The environmentally-correct way to handle those lightsabered droid remains. Also: Hans Solo! (via)
Protip. It's highly unlikely that Dark Horse was inspired by your fanfic, and saying so is your one-way ticket to a mass mocking.
StarWars.com unearths some European gems from the twilight of original Star Wars mania… The Droids and Ewoks cartoons. Some, like the stuffed Ewoks above, are kind of terrifying. I'm pretty sure that guy on the right is sizing up that poor girl's skull for his percussion kit.
Collecting. Star Wars Dixie Cups of yore. Or, get a virtual tour of Michael Jackson's game room/collection gallery, which includes some great Star Wars stuff.
Fan Art. Tom Whalen's stylized Return of the Jedi poster.
TV. Conan O'Brien jokes about the Vader toaster. I'm just relieved that someone else is underwhelmed by it.
Jedi, heal thyself. Only What You Take With You: Paths to confronting your fears, battling your demons and fufilling your potential.
A good wingman is hard to find. A t-shirt tribute to everyone's favorite secondary character. This is an excellent shirt to wear when asking Aaron or Mike to sign your arm. (Yes men, you can get one, too.)
If you thought Episode I was slashtastic… Episode VII is among the five posters for sci-fi spinoffs that Sci Fi Wire really wants to see. Nice idea, but their suggestion of Peter Jackson is a bit much. (I mean, really? REALLY? Did no one see his King Kong? Lord of the Rings is one thing, but no giant gorilla movie has any right to go on that long.)
They don't serve your kind. Duncan Jenkins's guide to cantina collectibles.
Distressing damsels. Leia and Willow's Sorsha are among Sci Fi Squad's top ten princesses of sci-fi and fantasy.
Whoops. Seven classic star wars characters who totally dropped the ball.
Of course it's Ann Arbor. TFN found a Star Wars day camp.
Lucas Online is hiring! Pablo and Bonnie have been out and about urging folks to apply for the Project Web Developer job. One could certainly do worse…
Other than collect action figures?
StarWars.com's Pete Vilmur takes a look at the horrific girl-oriented merchandise of the 70's. Sadly, things haven't improved that much in 30 years. (Well, the dolls are nicer, but good luck finding a female one.)
Here's one for all you collectors to envy – the Star Wars loft of Flickr user eyeSPIVE. He even has books!
We have charity things for both the Star Wars fans, Stargate fans, and sci-fi fans in general, today.
Kilometers 4 Katie – There will be another marathon in Storm Trooper armour. This one benefits the Make-A-Wish foundation. The goal is to raise enough to grant two wishes in memory of Katie Johnson; daughter of 501st founder Albin Johnson.
Michael Shanks Online Auction – It's time, once again, for another auction benefitting the Multiple Sclerosis Society of Canada. Items have been donated from all over the sci-fi and TV world. It's not just Stargate.
There was news today that says charity contributions are down. Please do all you can to help the organization of your choice.

MAYORS across the south-west will meet Telstra representatives in Warrnambool today seeking answers to the telecommunications disaster.
As communication services trickle back into use, Glenelg Shire mayor Karen Stephens said the public is demanding reassurances this won't happen again.
"First of all we have to go right back to the beginning — to be left without emergency services is critical to the community and that's the first question that has to be answered," Cr Stephens said.
"We have areas here in the Glenelg Shire that don't have mobile reception and now they don't have landlines, so what are they going to do with those people, and that's Merino and that's Digby and that's out at Wando Vale and north of Casterton."
"We still don't have email here in Casterton butBillMundy (Telstra spokesman), if you were in Melbourne and listening to what he was saying, you would think everything's okay and as far as Melbourne is concerned, everything's back online and that's not true."
Glenelg Shire Council will also write to Member for Wannon Dan Tehan and Communication Minister Stephen Conroy after Cr Geoff White moved a motion in urgent business at Tuesday night's council meeting.
Cr White said the impact on small business needed to be addressed by the federal government.

I figured at this point I'd have something nice and meaningful to post about, such as the fact that I've completed the first two of five days of MBA orientation at UNLV. But Bar Louie has stolen the show, folks. And it wasn't pretty.
Last night, Laura texted me to meet her and Julia at Bar Louie at 9:30 after I got out of orientation. So I headed on over there and we sauntered on in to the place once they got out of a movie at Rave they were watching.
At first, the hostess wasn't sure where we would be sitting. She offered a booth and we accepted, but had to back out and ask if a table was ok. Not sure what was up with the whole booth thing. So anyway, we went and sat down at our table. All three of us pretty hungry. I hadn't eaten since 11:30, so by the time we sat at the table at 9:25, it'd been 10 hours since my last meal. I had a couple of snacks during that time frame, but nothing substitutes for a full meal.
Very soon after we came in, a group of five ladies dressed for a night on the town (or, perhaps, a night at Town Square, which is where Bar Louie is) were seated at a table next to us. A couple was seated at another table on our other side.
Laura, Julia and I had sporadic conversation about various things to spend the time waiting to get our order in. Julia and I checked our iPhones for various reasons. I glanced at the TV a few times because they were talking about the ludicrous return of Brett Favre to the NFL.
Soon we realized it was 9:40 and we'd been sitting at our table for a full 15 minutes with absolutely no communication from any of the staff. We began to get more and more irritated and upset at the ignorance being thrust in our direction. By this time, one waiter had already spent a great deal of time at what we'll call "the ladies table."
We were speculating on whether or not we would just leave and go someplace else to eat, which in retrospect would have been a wise choice. Right as Julia and I were about to get up to walk out, Laura wanted to try to stay there since we were there for dollar burger night… A very, very cheap way to eat in Town Square if you're there on a Tuesday anytime after 5pm. A buck a burger and then added charges for whatever you put on it beyond the bun, patty and lettuce.
Laura got up and looked around for a server, waiter, bartender… Anybody. She didn't end up traveling very far, because the waiter that was still at the ladies table had finally gotten up to go do something else. He started walking by ignoring us, but Laura got his attention and let him know that we'd been sitting for 20 minutes without anybody having done something so simple as take our drink order.
Very quickly, a different waiter came by our table, who'd also been working some of the other tables in the vicinity. Interestingly enough, he'd also been to the ladies table a couple of times. According to Julia, both of the two waiters that visited their table had flirted with them the majority of the time they were there. I can't verify that because I wasn't close enough to that table, but I 100% believe that. They were there for too long.
So he took our drink order and said he'd be back to take our dollar burger order soon. Laura and I are usually forgiving when it comes to bad service, so long as they appear to be striving for good service, so we both were giving him another shot to redeem himself. Although it didn't help that we really didn't get an apology from him when he came by. He said, mostly rushed and pretty quietly, "sorry, I must have not seen you walk in."
And then we sat some more. For another 15 minutes we waited with just our drinks while our waiter tended to nearly every table but us. All we needed was for him to take the 10 seconds or less it would require to pick up our crayon-marked dollar burger orders. But no. He spent the majority of his time at the ladies table.
Now you might notice that I mentioned a couple being seated to the other side of our table from the ladies table. Well, pretty soon after we got our drinks and started waiting another 15 minutes for our food order to get picked up, the man at that table went up to the hostess and complained about the lack of service as well. I have no idea what he said, but he was obviously complaining, as they had been in Bar Louie a few minutes shorter than us and still hadn't been seen the first time.
So 15 minutes later our waiter finally picks up our food order and we're left to await the food. By this point, we're expecting them to take another hour to prepare and deliver our food for consumption, or something close to that time frame. Really pissed off.
The food actually came quicker than we were expecting. Unfortunately, it was not without an issue. See, there were 2 add-ons in the burger menu that related to blue cheese. One was dressing, the other crumbles. I ordered dressing, which is 25 cents, as opposed to crumbles that were 50 cents. Yeah, they mixed it up. Because of the terrible service we'd had to that point, I did and at the same time, did not want to send it back. Who knows how long that could have taken to fix, let alone what they might have done to my burger in the meantime. Oh well, it was close enough to what I wanted.
We were pretty much ignored the rest of the time we were eating. Our drinks had all expired for quite some time by the time he came by to drop off the bill and asked if we wanted more to drink. By that point, none of us did. We just wanted to pay and get the hell out of there. He did continue to spend inordinately large amounts of time at the ladies table. He also visited the couple seated next to us about as often as he visited us.
The food wasn't even that great. The burger wasn't, at least. Since that was the only time I've been there, I've never had any other food. It might be better. For $1.50, my burger was worth the money, but it wasn't anywhere near worth how pissed off I got over the whole situation. Average food, I'd dare say a little below the quality I was expecting from a place like that.
Laura and I are by nature good tippers, at least I think we are. We tend to tip in the 18-20% area if the service was good. If there was shaky service, we still tip around 15%. If the service left a lot to be desired, we end up in the 10%-15% area.
Last night, we left a 7% tip. That's the lowest tip we've ever left on a bill. Julia left no tip at all. Laura also complained to the hostess about the issue. Looking back, we should have asked for a manager, because maybe then we would have gotten somewhere, but… What can you do.
I've had better service at Buffalo Wild Wings. BW3 is my prime example of a place that I always get bad service at. Well, not necessarily bad service, but severely lacking. We expect it and get it, save for the few times recently where they've picked things up a bit. Maybe they've noticed a deficiency and are taking steps to correct it. But the service issues at BW3 aren't so bad that they can't be overcome.
Bar Louie is completely dead to me. I will never eat there again. I know that many of you have had good experiences there, but maybe boycott them for awhile in my memory. Maybe someone from Bar Louie will contact me and profusely apologize, and actually be able to convince me that they're sincere. Then we'll consider them again in the future. But based on our experience last night… Never again. It was the single worst dining experience in my life.
Even worse than the time a waitress constantly reminded my table to tip her. At least she paid attention to us.
I've gotten in touch with John Polizzi, who left his contact information here on my blog (which was removed in the publicly-posted comment). He's offered to bring the three of us back in when it's convenient for us so he can "show us what Bar Louie is all about." So I'll keep you all updated as things progress.

Mai B.United StatesHairDark BrownNormal HairOily HairDry HairThick or Coarse HairNot Impressed.So I bought this thinking it would be amazing (and for $140 dollars it should have!), but I was not impressed.
Don't get me wrong, it's not a bad hair dryer. It's just that I would never pay more than $40 for it. I have a Chi hair dryer that I have shared with my mom for about 4-5 years and bought on sale for $20 that still managed to completely outshine this Sedu.
Here were the problems I had with it:
(1) Yes, it dried my hair fast and yes it made it nice and smooth when I did my blowout, but it completely sucked all the volume my hair had. I never thought that was impossible for a hair dryer to do!
(2) This thing is powerful, way too powerful. I suppose if I'm ever in a plane crash it'd be a useful thing to have cause I would literally be able to use it as an airboat propeller. But this caused my hair to fly everywhere and get super tangled. Even using a brush didn't help and I eventually got super annoyed.
I also thought it was strange. My old Chi did not seem nearly as powerful, but it dried my hair just as quickly (if not quicker) and was much more calm and quiet. Plus it added way more volume to my hair and my hair looked shinier.
I never thought I would say this, especially since I hate Chi flatirons, but Chi wins this round. Sorry Sedu, you're going in the return pile.posted Mar 26, 2014Link to this post -
KarenHairMedium BrownNormal HairColor Treated HairNot Faster Than My Much Cheaper RevlonI was expecting much better results from this dryer. It takes twice as long to dry my hair as my much cheaper off the shelf Revlon dryer. It does deliver nice shiny results even though it takes a long time to get there. Not exactly what I was looking for with my hectic schedule.posted Mar 24, 2014Link to this post
Danielle S.New YorkHairMedium BrownNormal HairLove ThisI love love love this hair dryer. My hair dries fast but without the damage from cheaper models. I have virtually no frizz and my hair looks so much sleeker and shinier. My husband has even commented on how great it looks. My only complaint would be how hard it is to get the attachments off, I'm hoping this improves over time. Overall though I would absolutely recommend this dryer. It is worth every penny and the price on Folica was cheaper than I've seen anywhere else.posted Mar 21, 2014Link to this post
NatashaNYCHairMedium BrownNormal HairDry HairColor Treated HairAmazing A+++++This is the jam.
I had a shleepy mini blowdryer before which took like 45 mins to dry my long hair. I tried the light weight Sedu and it took about 25.
This model dries my hair all the way Winter ready dry in 10-15 minutes. It is crazy powerful, tiny and light weight.
In a tiny NYC bathroom this is greatly appreciated. This product is worth the extra expense in my mind for all of the time you will save.posted Mar 17, 2014Link to this post -
Koala6757HairThick or Coarse HairChemically Treated HairFabulous Hair Dryer!!First experienced this hair dryer at well known D.C. salon--was impressed enough to try it at home. I have thick, curly/straight mixed hair that is above-shoulder length. Takes ages to dry--but not with the Sedu 4000i--wow! Did an excellent job in straightening my difficult to tame hair (along with the Marilyn Flatter Me Too Much Brush). Bought another hair dryer along with this one so I could test them both, the T3 Featherweight Luxe 2i Ion Generator Hair Dryer; that didn't do the job as well. The Sedu can be a little heavy, but I acclimated--well worth the results!posted Mar 14, 2014Link to this post
LoriHairAuburnCurly HairColor Treated HairThick or Coarse HairCompare To Elchim 3900 Healthy Ionic DryerI tried this dryer first and it does get hotter than any other hair dryer I've tried. I liked that it cut my time down in half from my last dryer. My complaint was that if I wanted to dry all my hair fast then I couldn't control the air. It blows so fast (a little too high pitch of a sound for my taste) and hot that it was hard to control my hair on a round brush, would blow my hair right off of it. I have very thick curly/frizzy hair and like to control it. While it didn't burn my hair I can see why some customers say it does, I was careful not to leave it in one place because of other comments. Still I like the idea of quick dry so researched again and decided to try the Elchim 3900 Healthy ionic dryer to compare side by side before I'd send one of them back. Elchim also dryed fast but not quite as fast (I tried to time it a couple of times on each, one right after the other, a long process to rewet and redry but I wanted to be sure since this is a lot of money) Elchim also got hot but not quite as much and I had an easier time controlling. In the end I decided on the Elchim because I could control better even if it took me 14 instead of 11 minutes. (this was time with a round brush) It felt better and looked better in the end with Elchim. Also I was afraid of the damage this Sedu might do to me hair over the long haul. And I was a little worried about customer service I'd read about with Sedu not always lasting very many months and didn't see that problem with Elchim. So there you have my comparison.posted Mar 13, 2014Link to this post
DonnaArizonaA Life Changing Hairdryer!I never thought the day would come that I would spend this kind of money on a hairdryer, but I took the leap, and I have to say it was so worth it!
I have thin naturally curly hair and this dryer has cut my drying time in half. My hair also has more shine and body than before. It creates a better style than I've experienced before. My hair feels really healthy, no frizz at all. The cold shot is actually "cold!" It feels great to have a blast of cold after styling. It's a totally new experience in styling. The only reason I didn't give it 5 stars is the weight. This is not a light dryer, but it's benefits out weigh the weight! It's changed my styling life. I love this hairdryer, and I highly recommend it.posted Mar 11, 2014Link to this post -
Salma M.United StatesHairDark BrownNormal HairBest Hair Dryer I Ever Used!I was very hesitant to buy this hair dryer because of how expensive it is but it is definitely worth every penny. It is very light and provides the perfect temperature, never gets too hot and leaves my hair soft and frizz free. It is also much quieter and smaller than other dryers that offer the same power. Highly recommend it!posted Mar 4, 2014Link to this post

LoriFolsomHairDark BrownCurly HairThick or Coarse HairChemically Treated HairBeautiful Design & Package - Awkward HandlingI wanted this dryer to replace my still working 5 year old (yes 5 years of daily use!)T3 Featherweight that I love dearly. Why replace a working dryer I love, you ask. I'm scared I'll wear it out and I haven't heard great things about the new ones. Anyhow- receiving this Sedu was like opening presents on Christmas morning. Beautiful package, the dryer feels well made. Here's my issue: the buttons are placed so that when manipulating the handle I kept turning it off, clicking the high/low button so on. It's also the size of a travel dryer which made it awkward and painful for my wrist to hold. I will need to exchange it for a larger dryer. I wish I could have found it in a store to try first. However Folicas prices are the best around ! This is where I purchased my beloved T3.......posted Feb 27, 2014Link to this post

There's an ever-growing population of veterans from all eras with severe, untreated mental disabilities, especially post-traumatic stress disorder. Most of the out-of-control veterans who committed some kind of misconduct while in uniform ended up with an "other than honorable" military discharge.
In 1958, Congress passed laws that force the Department of Veterans Affairs to grant benefits to these vets under an "insanity exception," but veterans are rarely told of this when they ask for help.
Veterans don't know that they should ask for a "character of service determination" and submit a psychological evaluation, explaining that they were suffering from a mental disorder at the time of the misconduct. They can then gain full benefits.
Our objective should be to get these disabled veterans the treatment and housing they so desperately need.

Level Required: 60
Build thanks to EvilixGaming
As of Diablo 3 patch 1.0.4, the Barbarian Double Tornado build still works like a charm. It is an extremely popular Barbarian Inferno build but thanks to the class changes, we now have a bit of variety in terms of viable options. Today's build will focus on Whirlwind but using a different rune for a more volcanic effect. It is a fun build that will surely be appreciated by the ones that got bored by the stereotypical Barbarian Builds. The Whirlwind Volcano requires some gold investment as the DPS can be increased with some Legendary items. Obviously, Whirlwind will cause fire damage and with the right kind of gear, the damage output can be boosted significantly. It is also a visually entertaining setup but more on that later.
Let's start by having a look at the skill setup:
Left Mouse Button – Cleave with the Reaping Swing rune
Right Mouse Button – Whirlwind with the Volcanic Eruption rune
Action Key 1 – Battle Rage with the Into the Fray rune
Action Key 2 – Earthquake with the The Mountain's Call rune
Action Key 3 – Wrath of the Berserker with the Insanity rune
Action Key 4 – War Cry with the Impunity rune
Passive Skill 1: Bloodthirst
Passive Skill 2: Ruthless
Passive Skill 3: Animosity
The Mechanics Of The Build:
To get things started we will need a lot of Fury. Since it is an AoE build, Cleave will be paired with the Reaping Swing rune for a total of 8 Fury generated per hit. Into the Fray rune will also make the Critical Hits to grant 15 Fury. This can proc during Whirlwind, extending the duration of the swing.
In terms of damage, fire based skills will be our main focus. We will have the Volcanic Eruption rune and Earthquake. Their base damage is fairly decent but with the help of some key pieces of gear, it can be increased by significant amounts. We will use the Legendary two handed sword Maximus and Magefist. These two items increase the final damage by 35% for both Earthquake and Whirlwind. Things go off the chart when Wrath of the Berserker is used. It gives a base damage boost of 100% meaning that Earthquake will deal 4000% weapon damage over 8 seconds without calculating the bonus from the gear. That means a raw 500% weapon damage per second.
The passive skills chosen are focusing on damage and Fury regen. It is a glass cannon kind of build and since the Barbarian is a melee class, life on hit is a must. At least 800 is required to survive in the middle of a pack. This is why Bloodthirst is a good passive skill to have if gear is not that great. It can be swapped with something else if there is enough Life on Hit. The other two passives focus strictly on Fury regen and damage. These two are mandatory for this Barbarian Inferno solo build. Without enough Fury, the Barb will become starved and Whirlwind will be used less often.

Delk, who introduced his grandson, Robert Money, explained that his grandchildren and great-grandchildren have no idea what life was like when he was growing up. He said, being 90 years old, he grew up during the years between World War I and World War II and remembered those years well. He set out to write articles about life back then titled, "Memories of Yesteryear," which was published in the Cleveland Daily Banner. The books are available at $18 each and he said he would be happy to autograph each copy sold.
Before Bostic gave the devotion, she voiced her concerns about the storm that hit the Northeast. She said she has been on her knees praying for the woman who called in on the prayer line, and for others too. "... you can't just pray for one and leave the others out — you got to pray for them all," she said. "We need to remember to pray for all the people involved in the storm ... we got people from Cleveland, pray for all the fire department — everybody who's involved, because they need the prayers." Also, she added, "Pray for the those who lost loved ones since the last meeting."
The devotion was taken from John 14:6. Bostic said, "Everything we do, all our deeds and all our works for God should be a labor of love, motivated by our faith and hope in Him, so we have to have love, have to have faith and we have to have hope. Good works are meant to be a blessing, not an obligation, are a means of salvation. We do good works because of God's love within us, not because we feel persuaded to do them." When God is in your life, she continued, "the evidence is good works — praise, worship, obedience, prayer. We are signs of a heart totally committed to Jesus Christ."
Judge Daniel Swafford was introduced as guest speaker. He began his talk, saying, "We're in the crossroads — all of us." He said there's a Christian free enterprise route and there's the what they call secular socialist route. That means putting your faith in government and this world. "I don't know where everybody else wants to go," Swafford said, "but I want to go the Christian free enterprise route."
Swafford said he had been in this job since 2006. "It's a big challenge," he continued ... "the terrible things we see and the bad situations." He confided that he would go home and worry and cry about some of the things he sees, "but I do my best to do what's right for all the children that I handle."
He said he's responsible for all the general sessions civil and all the juvenile and he explained what that involves. He averages 150 to 300 cases a week in small claims court and is also responsible for enforcing a local resolution to ensure the community is clean and safe. "But probably I think the most important thing I do is my juvenile," Swafford said. He has two offices, one downtown at the courthouse and the other at the old jail location. He said, "I do juvenile justice, which is delinquent and unruly juveniles at the old jail." But, at the courthouse, he does dependent, neglected and abused children, as well as child support. He said he knows of one instance in Bradley County where one gentleman has seven different children by seven different mothers ... "the count is up to like $200,000 he owes in child support ... a real challenge."
Paternity and legitimation cases of children born out of wedlock are also dealt with. "I never heard the term, 'baby daddy and baby mama,' until I took this job," he said, "but that's what it is today. You don't have husbands and wives anymore, you got baby mamas and baby daddies." Other judges in town handle the divorces, but Judge Swafford handles the unwed. "I do everything they do except divide houses and property — I do custody, visitation, child support and all that."
Swafford also discussed methamphetamine abuse in families, neglected and abused children, homeless people and substance abuse problems. "It's almost unbelievable some of the attitudes that I see," he said, and "ultimately, they don't follow Christian principles, but I fight to try to take care of the children." He said he uses the best interest of the child as his guiding principle. "That's what the law tells me — I have to follow the law, I have to listen to the facts, but the single most important thing is the best interest of the child."
The judge said he grew up near Red Clay State Park and he would carry water from a outdoor spring and use an outhouse until he was in high school. "I grew up a generation behind the people of my age," he said. "I thank God that I had a family that loved me and taught me right and wrong and gave me the hickory (switch) when I needed it."
Swafford said, "What I'm trying to tell you is this, I'm blessed to have this job, I do my best every day, I go home sometimes and cry about the stuff I have to deal with. We try to save every family we can, but folks, some families can't do it and you got to move on, you got to give a child the opportunity to fine a safe, stable loving home, so I wear many different hats — I have many different responsibilities, but always I try to do what I hope and best I can understand it, the best interest of the children."
"God willing, I'll be able to do this a few more years, that's my intention," he said.
Swafford said the club members were invited to come and walk through the juvenile detention center.
A club member, Juanita Poteet, was given a birthday recognition. Gifts were given and a waitress sung "Happy Birthday" for her 83rd birthday.
The door prize, courtesy of Steve Robinson of Cleveland Plywood, was won by Peggy Meyer.
The November meeting will be Nov. 26 at the Golden Corral at 11:30 a.m. Guest speaker will be Tommy Townsend, a Vietnam veteran. Bostic asked that everyone wear their flag pin and put on some red, white and blue.
Others attending the meeting were Ruby Ball, club recorder Shawn Markie, Kent Gunderson, Barbara Tucker, Lily Cunningham, Martha Ledford, Calvin Davis, Robert Money, Joe Ben Chase and Betty Keith.

Janis proposes stiffer penalties for child endangerment
A Louisa County child abuse case sparked legislation proposed by Del. William R. Janis, R-Glen Allen, to increase penalties for anyone convicted of endangering a child.
The case involved Louisa residents Laura and Ronald Jewell, who were accused of torturing their 8-year-old granddaughter. The prosecutor, Louisa Commonwealth's Attorney Tom Garrett Jr., said the girl sneaked out of her house on July 8, 2010 and ran to neighbor's home for help. The neighbors, upon hearing a noise around 3 a.m., opened their door and found the girl, who was covered in bruises. She told the neighbors that she had been beaten and asked for help. The neighbors then proceeded to call 911. The little girl was missing significant chunks of hair, Garrett said. She had open sores behind her ears and a small portion of one of her ears was missing. One of her ankles was broken and she had what looked like cigarette burns all over her body, he said. The Jewell grandparents, with whom the girl was living, had made a "home-security system" to keep her in her room, Garrett said. They did so by tying a pan to her doorknob, which would make lots of noise when she would try and open the door. Laura Jewell was convicted of malicious wounding and felony child abuse and neglect, and faces up to 30 years in prison when she is sentenced next month. Ronald Jewell pleaded guilty to felony child neglect and also faces substantial prison time. The issue at hand, Garrett said, is that child torture statues are located in the child labor section of Virginia legislation. The judge presiding over the Jewell case stated that since the grandmother wasn't the child's employer, she couldn't enact the penalties that come along with a child labor law infraction. Janis said the problem is that the statutes pertained more to child labor laws as opposed to child abuse under criminal code. The acts that came out of those discussions were labor-related and not catered to children who were physically harmed by a parent, he said. "We want to have as many teeth for physical abuse as we do for sexual abuse," Garrett said. Legislative changes would give prosecutors more ways to help victims and convict abusers. The bill Janis proposes, HB 1996, would make it a Class 3 felony with additional penalties for cases similar to the Jewell convictions. A related measure he submitted, HB 1995, would allow victims of child pornography to collect civil damages from offenders. "There are three things we're trying to do within these codes. Firstly, we want to move child torture and abuse from the child labor codes to the criminal code. Secondly, we want increased restitution for the victims of said abuse. And thirdly, we want more distinctions within the code regarding levels of offenses," Garrett said. There is currently nothing within the code that addresses the varying atrocities of child abuse, torture and neglect, he said. Garrett said he spoke with Janis early on in the Jewell case about the various issues within the code. Janis was eager to try to make improvements, he said. With regard to this year's legislative session, "I'm afraid because budget times are so tight," Garrett said. More people in prison means more money spent. This isn't something a lot of lawmakers are going to want to hear, he said, "but if you're breaking kids' ankles, in my opinion, you deserve to be in jail." – Liz Monahan is a reporter for Capital News Service |

From funding to school capacity, Superintendent Jose Banda faces big challenges.
In a thought-provoking, academically challenging high school history class -- the kind you hope your children will experience -- you may have grappled with the question: Do the times make the man or does the man make the times?
It's a question that can be applied to Seattle Schools Superintendent José Banda, now in his sixth month on the job and coming to the end of the first semester of the 2012-13 school year.
Banda has been something of a blank slate so far, saying that for his first year on the job he prefers not to make any major changes and to listen to stakeholders; not a bad strategy for a city that is known to be hard on agents of change.
Still, a round of community meetings he undertook early in the school year was criticized as being full of empty rhetoric, yet also contradictory. On the Seattle Schools Community Forum blog, education activist Charlie Mas put it this way: "It was like watching a guy play tennis against himself."
Banda has expressed some opinions. He's talked about creating a college-going culture and raising academic achievement, especially in STEM (science, technology, engineering and math), and, in his recent State of the District address, acknowledged Seattle Public Schools (SPS) have only met about half of the goals outlined in the 2008 five-year plan created by his predecessor, the late Dr. Maria Goodloe-Johnson.
He, along with representatives from 259 other Washington school districts, came out against charter schools, a move that did not endear him to education reform advocacy groups.
At a recent conference on Finland's education system he spoke about the need to reconsider the amount of standardized testing in our schools, and could be seen sitting cozily next to Seattle Education Association President Jonathan Knapp. He's indicated a desire to make leadership changes and has undertaken a nationwide search to fill some key vacancies in the District.
Whom he surrounds himself with and whom he chooses to listen to will be the source of scrutiny in the months to come.
So far, nobody seems to have jumped squarely on the Banda-wagon.
But, as the usual six-month honeymoon for a new leader comes to an end, Banda continues to make himself available for discussions, including one tomorrow with Crosscut writers and editors. Here's a look at some of the issues we'll be talking about; please add any other topic suggestions in the comments below:
In the meantime, two Seattle Public Schools levy renewals are on the February ballot: 1) the operations levy, which provides nearly 30 percent of the district's budget and 2) the capital levy (BEX IV), which funds building improvements and earthquake safety upgrades and is an essential part of the district's strategy for dealing with increasing enrollment.
The capacity issue is contentious for a number of reasons: it has the potential to pit neighborhoods and programs against each other, it threatens school-based arts programs and it tries public confidence over the district's ability to adequately plan for enrollment bumps.
District leaders say boundary changes will be needed in order to alleviate North End school crowding, but they won't begin to discuss potential changes until after they know whether BEX IV has passed. The last time the boundaries were changed, the issue was contentious. It will likely be so again.
In November SPS released its first teacher evaluations based on student achievement, using standardized test results as the metric. Of the 132 teachers captured in this initial evaluation roll-out, some 71 percent had students who demonstrated "typical" academic growth.
Banda has praised the new evaluation system, but he's also said he wants to take a look at the frequency and cost of standardized tests. In the meantime, some schools are being asked to pilot Smarter Balanced Assessments, yet another, different standardized test (resulting in additional lost instruction time) and school administrators are concerned that their technology budgets are being held hostage by the need to invest in test-friendly equipment.
The district has undertaken a nationwide search to fill key positions within the Teaching and Learning Department, including assistant superintendent of teaching and learning, which Banda says he hopes to have filled by the end of the academic year. SPS says an executive director of curriculum and instruction will be appointed shortly, along with the announcement of a minor reorganization of that department.
In an academically challenging high school language arts class – the kind, again, that you hope your children will experience – you may have spent time considering the implications of this passage from William Shakespeare's Twelfth Night, which Superintendent Banda may have opportunities consider: "Be not afraid of greatness: some are born great, some achieve greatness and some have greatness thrust upon them."

No one uses Kim Kardashian's face and gets away with it.
But apparently a Mexican cosmetic surgeon, Dr. Victor Ramirez, thinks he can. The doctor decided to put up a giant billboard in Mexicali advertising his services, using the reality diva as his poster model, according to TMZ.com.
On the billboard, Kim is lying down and looking curvaceously beautiful; the billboard's slogan reads: No arriesgue su belleza, ni su salud, which according to the Daily Mail translates to, "Don't risk your beauty or your health."
Although no one can deny that Kim does indeed have great lips, perfectly contoured hips and a bottom that would make anyone jealous — except for J.Lo, of course — the fact is that the doctor didn't get Kim's permission.
"Obviously I did not speak to Kim Kardashian. I do not have her number," says Dr. Ramirez to TMZ.com when they contacted him via phone.
Just a suggestion, but maybe he should have at least tried to contact Kim's reps and make some sort of attempt?
This is not the first time that a company has tried to use Kim's image to market their product. Remember when Old Navy used a Kim lookalike in their television ads, then turned coy and said that it was a complete coincidence?
Maybe Kim needs to take a page out of Beyonce's baby book and copyright herself. Or start charging big bucks for companies who want to use her popularity. Either way, it's a win-win situation for Kim.

World English Bible (WEB) | New International Version (NIV) |
4 I had scarcely passed from them, When I found him whom my soul loves. I held him, and would not let him go, Until I had brought him into my mother's house, Into the chamber of her who conceived me. | 4 Scarcely had I passed them when I found the one my heart loves.

5 I adjure you, daughters of Jerusalem, By the roes, or by the hinds of the field, That you not stir up, nor awaken love, Until it so desires. | 5 Daughters of Jerusalem, I charge you by the gazelles and by the does of the field: Do not arouse or awaken love until it so desires. |

On 17 October 2006, Vicky Buchanan was killed by a lorry whilst cycling to work. Since then, her friends and family have worked tirelessly to create a positive legacy from their loss.
Vicky spent many months in Ethiopia as part of her Postgraduate Degree on Water Management, so it seemed right to identify a cause within the area for which she had such a passion. Vicky's Water Project was born.
Vicky's Water Project has already transformed Ethiopia's Lera Town and the five surrounding villages. Now we want to ensure that every child in Lera Town has the chance of a great education. With your support, we can help the people of Lera Town free themselves from poverty.
Thanks to you: Nearly £600,000 has already been raised by Vicky's friends and family and has led to a remarkable transformation in Lera Town and the surrounding villages.
Vicky's legacy in Ethiopia is 450,000 litres of reservoir capacity, 23 water kiosks, and 32 pipes, all put together by over 5000 community volunteer. That means thousands of people whose lives are no longer blighted by terrible water shortages every year.

There is the do-it-yourself 'hand wash' of dirty clothes where you can simply use some washing powder, water and a bucket. Others place their clothes with water and suds in a sealed container on the draw bar or 'A' frame of the caravan or trailer and let the motion of the road slosh the clothes whilst others use various clothes washing devices that are available.
When choosing washing powder or a laundry liquid look for one that is environmentally friendly. For example, Planet Ark and Aware laundry washing powders are, phosphate free, readily biodegradable and available from Coles, Woolworths and Safeway stores.
Now let's look at some portable laundry or clothes washing devices available.
Manual Portable Clothes Washing Devices
Magic Wash Portable Washing Machine – this compact portable hand operated washing machine which washes up to a 2.5 kg load is ideal for boating and camping. The Magic Wash machine measures 400 x 450 x 380 mm and is made of plastic except for a metal insert in the winder handle and the screw in the pressure seal lid. It cannot be used to wring or dry the clothes.
Wonder Wash Portable Laundry Machine – except for the stainless steel lid this laundry device is made out of plastic so there is nothing to rust. The dimensions are 305 x 305 x 405 mm (12" long, 12" wide and 16" high). You operate the device by turning the handle for 2-3 minutes per load.
Handi-Wash Portable Washing Machine
The Handi-Wash comes in two models that is one as a complete unit of a purpose built bucket with a lid and combination cap/pourer and the other is the Handi-Wash agitator and handle. The manufacturer states 'There are 42 strategically placed holes in the agitator. As you pump and twist the handle, the clothes start to tumble and spin. The holes in the agitator force oxygen through the washing cycle working in conjunction with your laundry detergent to speed up the wash cycle and drive out stains'.
Hand operated portable washing machines will generally come with instructions for one turn every second or one turn every 90 seconds recommended for cottons. Although the manual washing machines are simple to operate some users have reported these to be a tiresome way of doing the washing.
Portable clothes washing devices are available from camping and caravan accessory stores, on-line camping stores and eBay.

It could be said that "new begets new" at the NCMA. The construction of our new museum building not only necessitates fresh casework and specifically designed lighting systems, but it also has provided us with a unique opportunity to commission original works of art for inclusion in our building and the Museum Park. One of the most striking sculptures, soon to be installed in the new building's sculpture garden, is Roxy Paine's Askew (see press release). Made of stainless steel and reaching a staggering height–taller than our new building!–of 43 feet, Askew closely mimics the shape of a barren tree, with snaking silver limbs and entwined branches. Paine refers to these sculptures as "dendroids," tree-like forms that highlight a confluence between nature and industry.
Askew marks a collaboration between Paine and NCMA's curatorial and planning departments. Paine visited the Museum in April of 2007 to get a feel for the environment and prepare for his site-specific work. He brought his ideas back to his rural studio in Treadwell, New York, where he built the sculpture in sections, over the course of a year. (Check out this Flickr set for more images.) In November, the sections will travel to the Museum, and Paine will assemble the piece in its permanent location in the gardens surrounding the new building.
In case you can't wait until later this year to experience Paine's work, check out this recent installation, entitled Maelstrom, currently adorning the roof of the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York. (Catch the artist talking about his work in this great audio slideshow, as well.)

Exploring Kenya Recently, I have been absolutely in love with Kenyan teas and I wanted to share a little more information about Kenya and our Kenyan teas. Overview of Kenya Kenya is a country in East Africa. The Indian Ocean, Somalia, Uganda, South Sudan, Ethiopia, and Tanzania all border Kenya. Home to a little more than 41 million people, Kenya is slightly larger than twice the size of Nevada. The capital of and largest city in Kenya is Nairobi. Kenya's unique terrain has low plains and highlands, which is ideal for a variety of wildlife. The climate ranges from tropical to arid to cool. There are even glaciers on Mount Kenya. (cia.gov) |
Overview of Our Kenyan Teas | |
Royal Golden Safari Our truly exceptional Royal Golden Safari originates from a small scale farm in Kenya and has long golden leaves that mingle with milk chocolate and cacao colored leaves. Toasted walnut and oaky notes are prominent with a light pear undertone. Cocoa notes are also present. Here is what noted tea specialist, historian, writer, and consultant Jane Pettigrew has to say about our Royal Golden Safari, "The handsome tippy dry leaf of this orthodox black tea is full of large golden buds and lightly rolled russet-brown leaves. The aroma of the wet leaf is sweet with the fruitiness of ripening plums and the liquor is light, fragrant and delicate." Our Royal Golden Safari is part of the "Teas 4 Trees" line of teas that pays tribute to Professor Wangari Muta Maathai by donating a portion of profits to environmental initiatives of small-scale tea farmers. More information about Teas 4 Trees can be found HERE. Our Royal Golden Safari can be found HERE |
White Whisper White Whisper's long downy silvery green buds have a delicate buttery flavor with light floral and peach notes. Jane Pettigrew had this to say about White Whisper, "The infused leaf breathes honey, sweet plums and damsons. The aroma and taste of the straw-coloured liquor hints at ripening apricots and plums with just a hint of madeira cake and buttered toast." Our White Whisper can be found HERE |
Royal Highland Kenyan Green |
Purple Tea of Kenya While still Camellia sinensis, purple tea is a new varietal that is propagated by grafting and cutting as opposed to seeding. This particular varietal is known as TRFK 306/1 and is rich in anthocyanin (a flavonoid), which pigments the leaves a purplish color. Purple tea was primarily developed for tea health products and is rich in antioxidants. Malvidin, Pelargonidin and Delphinidin are prominent in purple tea. Malvidin is one of the many anthocyanins that can be found in plant based foods and is part of the phytonutrient family (a group of chemical compounds that occur naturally in plants and have multiple health benefits but are not considered essential to human health). The purple species has been in development for 25 years in Kenya and is more resistant to frost, disease, drought, and pests. Our Purple Tea of Kenya is processed similar to green tea; however, when experimenting with different temperatures and times it can take on qualities similar to a green, oolong or black tea and can range from very mellow vegetal notes to astringent red wine-like qualities. We highly recommend experimenting with 160F, 180F, and boiling water temperatures and recommend steeping the tea between 3 and 5 minutes. Our purple teas can be found HERE. An extensive review of the Purple Tea of Kenya can be found on the SororiTEA Sisters WEBSITE. One reviewer experimented with our Purple Tea of Kenya. His review and experiment can be found on his Lazy Litera"Tea" BLOG. |

Kamba Berry |
Kenya Kangaita Kenya Kangaita is a high elevation Orange Pekoe grade orthodox black tea. Originating from Kangaita, a settlement in Kenya's Central Province, this tea is full-bodied and complex. Kenya Kangaita has apricot, citrus, and biscuity notes and finishes with sweet roasted notes. Most tea in Kenya is cultivated with machinery; however, this tea is hand picked. Our Kenya Kangaita can be found HERE |
We hope you enjoyed learning a little bit about Kenyan teas and will consider exploring them.

My sister makes jewelry for a living, and she often has to make decisions based on opportunity costs. She uses the same wire, beads, and jewels to make earrings, bracelets, and necklaces, so she has to base her decisions about which to make more of on how good certain items are selling.
It is hard for her, because there are items that she loves to make that don't sell too well, so she has to think logically and give up on them. She could use the material for something else that would make her a profit, and even though she might have to sacrifice artistic fulfillment, she will see a better result if she does this.
Also, every time she tries making a new item, she is taking a risk. She is pulling from the same stockpile of materials that she uses to make popular items, so she will lose a little bit of money if they don't sell.

Isn't thimerosal still used in flu shots and some others?
Thimerosal is still used as a preservative in some adult flu shots. Thimerosal-free formulations are available for infants, children, and pregnant women, but there's not always enough to meet demand, and doctors routinely run out of thimerosal-free supplies.
Also, some DTaP booster shots, which are given to children age 7 or older, contain thimerosal. Finally, thimerosal is still used in some childhood vaccinations in other countries, mostly in the developing world.
What are the risks of not immunizing my child?
Medical experts agree that the benefits of vaccinating your child far outweigh the risks – for your child and for your community as a whole. A certain percentage of children have adverse reactions to vaccines, but such incidents are rare, given the large number of children vaccinated each year.
Julia McMillan, a professor of pediatrics at Johns Hopkins University in Baltimore, likes to remind parents about the number of serious diseases now controlled or eliminated by vaccinations.
"Many parents today are too young to remember the toll these diseases took before vaccines were developed," she says. "Polio has not been seen in the United States for decades. Measles, which still kills children in Africa every day, has been virtually eliminated in the United States. Vaccines against Streptococcus pneumoniae, Haemophilus influenzae type b, and meningococcus have drastically reduced the frequency of bacterial meningitis and other invasive conditions due to these bacteria. Our vaccination program has been one of the most successful health campaigns – in terms of saving lives – in history. But it will only continue to be successful if people have their children vaccinated."
If enough people decided not to be vaccinated, these illnesses could easily spread to epidemic proportions again. We know this is true because it has happened:
When measles vaccination rates in the United States dropped in the late 1980s, for example, more than 100,000 people came down with the disease and 120 died from it. In 1998, when immunization rates were back up, only 89 people became sick from measles and no one died.
Even as recently as 2008, outbreaks of measles have occurred in the U.S. Almost 90 percent of those in 2008 were either acquired abroad or linked to imported cases, and more than 90 percent of those who were infected had not been vaccinated (or their vaccination status was unknown). While the number of people infected with measles in the U.S. remains low, worldwide in 2008 there were 164,000 deaths attributed to measles.
In addition to measles, other diseases, such as polio and diphtheria, are still only a plane ride away. And even if you and your family never leave the country, lots of people do travel and they can unknowingly bring these diseases back with them.
The more people in your community don't get vaccinated, the more quickly disease can spread throughout the population.
Where can I get more information on thimerosal and vaccine safety?
This is a complex issue, and given the widespread rumors and contradictory reports, it's not surprising that parents are alarmed and confused. Start by talking to your child's doctor. And if you'd like to do some reading on your own, there's no shortage of information available on the Web.
Here are links to websites for health organizations that offer information on thimerosal and vaccine safety:
- Centers for Disease Control and Prevention
- The Vaccine Education Center at the Children's Hospital of Philadelphia
- Food and Drug Administration
- National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Disease
And here are links to websites for advocacy groups:

I found out last night that I did not get past the audition stage in NGADM. I wasn't angry or anything, but I was very surprised because I thought my chances were good this year. I put a lot of time into my song, probably just as much time as most people, but I wasn't skilled enough to make my song stand out. I don't know how to play any instruments, I barely learned about music theaory, and I am not creative enough. These are all things I can improve over the next year though.
I PMd Echo, one of the competition's hosts, and he told me that I got one nomination, which was very exctiting news. I would like to thank whoever that was :D
Many artists that I really like passed the audition stage, and I am very exciting to hear their upcoming songs! I know some people, like Johnfn, save their best work for this time of year. The artist I am most excited about is Duttonsayshi, he makes great video game music, and I love his song "Cloud City", which was the song that got him passed the audition stage.
Currently, I do not know when I will work on a new song again. Someone who I met from playing video games sent me a midi file from one of his songs so I can make a remix, but I don't know when I will get to that. I am having a very busy summer. I'm reading a lot, playing video games competitively, as well as spending time with family and friends. I have also been rewatching an old favorite TV show, 24 :D I know I have a lot of fans (Thank you for following, btw) that are waiting for a new song, and I won't forget.

text: Kate Moss, with her 5'7",100 lb. frame, was the face of the early '90s heroin chic modeling movement, but it took time to get to the top. She was actually discovered at 14 at JFK on the way back from a Bahamas vacation, but couldn't find work because glamazons like Cindy Crawford were favored in the '80s. She instead focused on graduating from high school and building her portfolio (with help from then boyfriend photographer Mario Sorrenti) and in 1992 took a career-changing meeting with Calvin Klein. Her topless jeans ad hit magazines and billboards in 1993, immediately stirring controversy, ushering in new denim trends and often getting defaced with graffiti reading "Feed Me." Working non-stop for six years, partying hard and surviving a four-year intense (as in trashing hotel rooms intense) relationship with Johnny Depp landed Moss in rehab for "exhaustion" in late 1998, where she put on a few pounds that were a hit at the 1999 Versace show in Milan. After having daughter Lila with publisher Jefferson Hack in 2002, she hooked up with yet another bad boy, rocker Pete Doherty, in 2005 and rumors of cocaine use started to spread. Later that year, the Daily Mirror ran a front-page shot of Moss allegedly snorting cocaine. Moss immediately lost contracts with H&M, Burberry, Chanel and H. Stern, which cost her an estimated $4 million. She issued a public apology, headed for another stint in rehab and was back in action with 10 major campaigns in fall 2006. Moss, who launched a collection for Topshop and finally rid herself of Doherty in 2007, married The Kills rocker Jamie Hince in 20 11.
