Maycie's Info...
I am already spayed, housetrained, up to date with shots, good with dogs, and good with cats.
I'm Maycie and I am just hoping that you are my loving forever family! I was found by some nice people when I was running around as a stray. I was very chubby and had recently had babies. I have had lots of babies. But those day are over and I just want to be your baby. I love to cuddle during my power naps and I love to learn new things. My foster mom has kept me on a diet and I never knew that having a waist and getting exercise could make me feel so good! I still have a little more to lose, but I'm on a roll and doing great! My perfect forever family will want a sweet and special cuddle bug with a secure, fenced yard as I can get scared at loud noises and it makes me want to run. Everyone has gone through so much to save my life and keep me safe that they just want to make sure that I am alive and happy for a very long time. I can't wait to give you Chihuahua kisses forever and ever!

Other Pets at Finding Shelter
Why Adoption is a Great Option
Maycie, a Norristown Chihuahua/Pug dog was adopted! Here's how you can benefit by looking at adoption as an option to buying a Chihuahua/Pug for sale in Norristown, or seeking a Chihuahua/Pug dog from a breeder in Norristown.
- Rescues and shelter volunteers in Norristown already know the personality and tendencies of their pets. This means they can match you with the right pet. That will makes it much easier transition to owning a pet for yourself and your new pet.
- On average adoption fees are much less than you'd pay a Norristown breeder, or pet store. Plus most often rescue pets have already been to the veterinarian for a check-up, had a round of vaccinations, and are spayed or neutered. That is a lot of savings!
- You will become a hero, and give a needy dog or cat a loving home. In fact, there are even Chihuahua/Pug breeders who help with Chihuahua/Pug rescue. One puppy or kitten adopted in Norristown paves the way for another one to be saved.

This Week In Money Interview - A Technical Analysis of the Financial Markets - Mike Swanson (05/11/2014)
I did this radio interview discussion with investment adviser and technical analyst Ross Clark of CIBC Wood Gundy. We talked about the big trends impacting the market now and what we are both keeping our eye on in the charts. This broadcast was part of This Week in Money.

Why bonds are up and nasdaq down
Plausible explanation
News from globeandmail.com
Why did Nasdaq, yields fall? Pension funds
Saturday, May 10, 2014
Scott Barlow, Globe Investor's in-house market strategist, writes exclusively for our subscribers at ROB Insight and Inside the Market online. Subscribe to Globe Unlimited at globeandmail.com/globeunlimited.
A strengthening U.S. economy, along with rising equity markets and interest rates, was the consensus forecast among economists as 2014 began. It hasn't turned out that way, and a prominent interest-rate strategist presents a fascinating, compelling explanation why.
Kevin Ferry is the founder of the Chicago-based Cronus Futures management and is among the most respected voices in the arcane but very important worlds of eurodollars, credit swaps and interest-rate futures.
Mr. Ferry advanced a theory that the March selloff in growth stocks, and the decline in U.S. bond yields, is the result of a massive portfolio re-allocation by pension funds.
"Public corporate pension funds, thanks to the over 30 per cent gain in the S&P 500 last year and the rise in rates .... are 100 per cent to 110 per cent funded. At the end of the first quarter, a number of large pension funds were up 8 per cent on the year because of their holdings in the [momentum] stocks ... it became attractive to reduce growth assets and increase hedge [fixed income] assets."
In other words, pension funds became overweight equities because of the strong performance of U.S. growth stocks in the 12 months ended February. In response, they took profits in successful stock investments and bought bonds with the proceeds to help meet future liabilities.
The accompanying chart, comparing the yield of the 10-year U.S. Treasury bond with the technology-heavy Nasdaq composite index, suggests the theory is at least partially correct.
Beginning March 18, the Nasdaq and bond yields began moving lower, roughly in tandem. This is what we'd expect - the selling of Nasdaq stocks drove the index lower and, since bond prices and yields move in different directions, the increased buying of bonds drove yields lower.
For investors, the bad news is that high-valuation momentum stocks like Facebook Inc. and Twitter Inc. are unlikely to recover any time soon. U.S. public pension funds are generally much better funded than they were, they're content with longer-dated bonds to ensure they'll have cash on hand to match the benefit payments they'll have to make, and so they don't need to increase their portfolio risk right now.
The potential silver lining is that the collapse of the mini tech bubble will see the more conservative, valuation-conscious investment strategies move to the fore. Last year, attempting to outperform the equity benchmarks virtually forced investors to chase stocks like Amazon.com Inc. (which was trading at over 500 times trailing earnings) and praying that they won't fall apart - in vain, as it turned out.
A more conventional market environment, where stocks with attractive price-to-earnings ratios and reliable growth outperform, is much more navigable for investors and should be welcomed. It reaffirms the proven, long-term benefits of prudent stock picking and risk management.

text: STONE, ULYSSES STEVENS (1878-1962)U.S. Representative Ulysses Stevens Stone, son of David C. and Sarah J. Hollenbeck Stone, was born on a farm near Weldon, De Witt County, Illinois, on December 17, 1878. By 1894 he had moved with his family to Jones, Oklahoma. Educated in rural schools, he attended the University of Oklahoma. In 1902 he married Menor M. Butler. The couple had one daughter. From 1894 to 1905 Stone pursued a career in banking. By 1905 the lure of the oil fields beckoned, and he became an oil operator in Norman and Oklahoma City. In 1918 he made his first venture into politics when he ran for the Republican nomination for governor. Undaunted by defeat, he ran for the Fifth District House seat in 1922 and for the U.S. Senate in 1926. Finally, in 1928 he made a successful campaign for the Fifth District seat. While in Congress from March 1929 to March 1931, Stone served on three committees, Expenditures in the Executive Departments, Flood Control, and War Claims. A supporter of legislation to benefit all veterans and their widows and children, he opposed the Hawley-Smoot Tariff because he believed that it would hurt the Oklahoma oil industry. Stone failed in his reelection bid in 1930 but did not give up on a political career. Although he never again held a political office, he was a perennial candidate. Over the next twenty years he campaigned for the U.S. House (1934, 1940, and 1950), for the U.S. Senate (1932), and for the Oklahoma Corporation Commission (1944, 1948). When Stone left Congress in 1930, he resumed his oil business in Oklahoma City. He also had interests in real estate and investments. He died on December 8, 1962, and was interred in Rose Hill Burial Park, Oklahoma City. SEE ALSO: GOVERNMENT AND POLITICS, REPUBLICAN PARTY.

Pascha: The Feast of Feasts
Christ is Risen! Indeed He is Risen!
In the Orthodox Church, the feast of Christ's resurrection is commonly referred to as "Pascha" (PAS-ka), the Greek term for "Passover." Jesus' rising from the dead is the point of reference for all Orthodox thought and life. Every Sunday is dedicated to the resurrection of Christ, so that we never lose sight of the centrality of Christ's victory over death. Yet in the Feast of Feasts--after a period of fasting and spiritual preparation that lasts almost two months called Great Lent-- the Orthodox faithful celebrate the greatest of all holy days, Pascha. "Christ is risen from the dead, trampling down death by death, and upon those in the tombs bestowing life!" we sing.

The Paschal Homily of St. John Chrysostom O Death, where is your sting? O Hell, where is your victory? |
by Frederica Mathewes-Green At one mesmerizing moment, the news of Christ's resurrection was held by a handful of women who were too scared to tell anyone. But tell they did, and the story went on unreeling, till half a world away and two thousand years later it rings out with loud joy. Hundreds of times in the season of Pascha we will sing: "Christ is risen from the dead, trampling down death by death, and upon those in the tombs bestowing life!" ...read more |
by a monk of St. Tikhon's Monastery, in The Holy Orthodox Church: Her Life and Teachings, Copyright 1986 by the St. Tikhon Seminary Press The Resurrection of Christ the Redeemer is the completion of the Great Work for the redemption of mankind from enslavement to Satan and corruption; the power of sin is destroyed and Death itself is abolished. The Resurrection of Christ grants every one the right to call himself a child of God; it is the return of Paradise lost, the threshold of the Holy of Holies of immortal life and communion with God. St. Paul tells us that if there had been no Resurrection then our Christian faith would have been deprived of any foundation or value: If Christ has not been raised, then our preaching is in vain and your faith is in vain.... If Christ has not been raised, your faith is futile and you are still in your sins (1 Cor. 15:14, 17). ...read more |
Easter Sunday: The Holy Pascha by Fr. Thomas Hopko At midnight the Easter procession begins. The people leave the church building singing: The angels in heaven, 0 Christ our Savior, sing of Thy resurrection. Make us on earth also worthy to hymn Thee with a pure heart. The procession circles the church building and returns to the closed doors of the front of the church.This procession of the Christians on Easter night recalls the original baptismal procession from the darkness and death of this world to the night and the life of the Kingdom of God. It is the procession of the holy passover, from death unto life, from earth unto heaven, from this age to the age to come which will never end. Before the closed doors of the church building, the resurrection of Christ is announced. ...read more |

On Death and Resurrection in Christ by St. Gregory the Theologian We needed an incarnate God, a God put to death, that we might live. We were put to death together with Him that we might be cleansed.

by Fr. Stephen Freeman From the point of view of Christ's resurrection – the doors are slammed and locked from the other side.

The Paschal Service of the Eastern Orthodox Church by Fr. Paul Lazor Pascha is the inauguration of a new age. It reveals the mystery of the eighth day. It is our taste, in this age, of the new and unending day of the Kingdom of God. Forty days are, as it were, treated as one day.

Arizona Wildcats
2013 Pac-12 opponents announced, Arizona to miss Stanford, Oregon State
The Pac-10 had it right.
Each team played the rest of the conference in a round robin-style schedule, leading to an obvious and uncontested champion at the end of the year.
After all, everyone played a similar schedule, so what would there be to complain about?
Then Colorado and Utah came in and messed things up.
The addition of the two schools caused a shakeup in the scheduling, with each school now missing two from the other division.
For Arizona, that meant no dates with California and Washington State the last two years.
Next year they'll welcome both of those schools back onto the docket, but at the expense of both Oregon State and Stanford.
ESPN.com's Ted Miller broke down the conference opponents for every Pac-12 school, and here's what he had for the Wildcats:
Home: ORE, UCLA, UTAH, WSU.Away: ASU, CAL, COLO, USC, WASH
Miss: Oregon State, Stanford
Both Oregon State and Stanford are top-25 teams this year, so Arizona looks to have caught a break this season with regards to conference scheduling.
The Wildcats were already slated to visit UNLV and host the University of Texas San Antonio as part of the out of the non-conference schedule.
In comparison, Arizona State will not play Oregon or California next season.

This summer, the Membership and Leadership Development (MLD) program is providing training to local and state League leaders from nine states that are entering the program for the first time ever. After a wonderful financial out-pouring of support for the MLD program at the LWVUS Convention in June 2012, Cheryl, Carol, Kelly, and I (the League trainers for the MLD program) have been met with enthusiasm for the program and for the future of the League.
Date: July 12 and July 19, 2012Location: Port Ludlow Beach Club, Port Ludlow, WashingtonEvent: Candidate ForumsPartners: Jefferson County/Port Townsend Leader and Jefferson County American Association of University WomenThe League of Women Voters of Jefferson County, Washington, held two judicial candidate forums in Port Ludlow on July 12 and 19. Both events were moderated by Fred Obee of the Jefferson County/Port Townsend Leader. The July 12 forum, attended by 40 people, featured six of the nine statewide Supreme Court candidates, as well as one candidate representative. The candidates described their life experiences and qualifications for the bench, and responded to a recent Jefferson County Bar Association poll that evaluated them across five professional categories. Justice Stephen Gonzalez, whose opponent, Bruce Danielson, has not campaigned or appeared in public, weighed in on the value of judicial diversity on the state Supreme Court and its impact on elections. Candidates also fielded questions from the audience on healthcare, judicial activism, and their views on prosecuting attorneys versus defense lawyers.The July 19 forum, attended by 80 people, featured all six Court of Appeals (Division 2) candidates and all three candidates for the Superior Court of Jefferson County. In addition to sharing their backgrounds, candidates addressed the importance of judicial independence and diversity, and responded to the same recent Jefferson County Bar Association poll that evaluated them along five categories. The candidates also evaluated the process by which court commissioners can hear cases and then advocate for those cases in front of the Supreme Court, agreeing that reform is needed to increase the perception of fairness.The events were covered in the Port Townsend and Jefferson County Leader, as well as in The Peninsula Daily News and on KPTZ, the local FM radio station, and video recordings of the events were shown on the local public-access cable channel.

You have important differences between Edison Nickel-Iron Batteries and Chinese Ni-Fe.
Some obvious and some that are not so noticeable.
All of them seem to be very important. One change is that the Edison Cell - Positive and Negative Plates
were kept fastened together with a hardware system where the Negative and Positive Elements
could be separated for 'secret Ni-Fe service' if need be.
This is where your old timer accounts about cleaning the plates and if necessary even
reconditioning the Positive 'Nickel Matrix Material' located in the pockets of the
positive plates comes to play.
One expert that helped me calls it 'A Lost Art' that he learned in his youth and then forgot over
many decades of a long life. Nothing got Lost. Not a bit of it.
Why it took just a hobbyist (myself) that got hooked on debunking all the mystery, myths, fish wives tales,
jive and riddles about Ni-Fe - to re-discover what is really going on is beyond me. It wasn't quick and it
wasn't exactly an easy puzzle but it was a lot of fun.
Keep Iron Poisoning in your mind from here on out.
Notice I didn't say maybe, please, perhaps, (or so) or whatever - but just laid it out there raw and cool.
Today the Chinese Ni-Fe Plates are welded to a current carrying bar so if you contaminate the
positive elements which is the Nickel Hydroxide (+ additives ?) (another post), your in big trouble
and your just out.
If it doesn't all rinse out with flushing (which I Highly doubt) then it's tough and you permanently lose capacity.
When it gets bad enough you have throwaways on your hands with a 20% Nickel content.
(See the Changhong Batteries MSDS). A major battery junk dealer on ebay
pays around 15 cents per pound for old Ni-Fe batteries. He's paying around 43 cents for common Lead Acid
batteries because though lead is cheaper it's in a much higher battery concentration.
Another major difference was going from the full metal cases (jars) to much more fragile
plastic cases. I feel that this may have been a huge mistake and may have a
major influence on the 'touchy' Ni-Fe Electrolyte. (another post) If you read the catalog called
'Changhong NF-S Series Nickel-Iron batteries for solar PV Application'
they tell you to Look for around 3 years (or so) of total use at 80% DOD which is Much lower than what
the Rolls 5000 Series batteries have in them.
I believe the Rolls 5000 series looks like they have around 82% MORE Life Cycles at 80% DOD than
the Changhong Ni-Fe cells do. Around 58% more Cycles at 100% DOD.
The Changhong cells start to show an advantage over the Rolls once you get up to
a MUCH More Reasonable DOD. At 50% DOD (50% Dead) the 2 battery technologies are fairly even.
There are situations where a person may need to 'buy a good 5 to 7 years with an undersized, overworked,
battery bank. In that case it's best to call Northern Arizona Wind & Sun.
Ni-Fe is for when you really have it ALL together, have plenty95 of cash and Really know Exactly what
to expect. Or at least hope that you do.
Plus we start buying the Ni-Fe cells directly from China someday unless a Reliable, honest player wants to
step up to the plate after
'The Ni-Fe Theory of Battery-tivity' has been revealed.
The Chinese Ni-Fe Cells Shine at 20% DOD with the life Cycle Chart jumping up
to over 23 years of good use.
You have an American Changhong reseller, Brandon Williams at Iron Edison Batteries advertising
that you can run the new Ni-Fe Batteries into the ground at 85% DOD
(85% Dead) on a daily basis.
This will Destroy the expensive Ni-Fe Cells much Sooner rather than later. When you see a
Changhong Operators Manual (which the resellers have always withheld from you) (another post)
it gets explained to you that the Life Cycles stated are WITH Expensive Electrolyte changes included.
Changhong and the Electric Indian does Not need to operate a Lying dreamland.
They have a Lot of different products in over 100 Countries. Lot's of different battery chemistries as well.
So changing the Electrolyte at 7-10 years is a real joke if you even slightly abused the new Ni-Fe Cells.
The batteries were totally shot before that - even at 60% DOD each day.
Let along running them 85% dead every day like somebodies fool. Only because much of the manufacturer's
data had been kept from you or what was available went unnoticed.
A NEW Look at old Charging routine's may be needed for Longer electrolyte life and less problems in general.
Now more than ever the name of the game is to avoid Positive Element Contamination from The Very
Beginning. It's NOT just Carbonates that you have to worry about.
According to certified research notes from Thomas A. Edison the Ni-Fe Cells (in time) are fully capable of
Self Destruction - all by themselves. Iron Poisoning of the Positive Electrodes. (another post)
The Carbonates and OTHER Contaminates is nothing but window dressing to the badboys in comparison.
(Lord willing, to be continued.)

Following Activision's announcement earlier today, Activision has released a shed load of details on the 'Rezurrection' map pack coming to Call of Duty: Black Ops this month.
Unlike the previous CoD DLC releases, Rezurrection will be an entirely Zombies affair, adding five new Zombies maps to the undead shooting portion of the game.
"Four are remastered and upgraded versions of the World at War Zombies maps that started it all - Nacht der Untoten, Verruckt, Shi No Numa and Der Riese," revealed Activision. "If you were introduced to Zombies gameplay with Black Ops, these are the historical maps that will fill in some of the backstory for you - and in addition to updated weapons and polish, they each still have their own surprises to offer."
A fifth map takes the zombie action to the 'Moon', where "the rules of engagement will apparently be changing", according to the publisher, which says further details on that are a "surprise".
There's more: "Rezurrection will include a special Moon Xbox 360 Dashboard theme and the official Zombies soundtrack, featuring three new tracks." Sweet.
The all-important release date: It'll arrive first on Xbox Live Marketplace (of course) on August 23 for 1200 MS Points. No date has been announced for the other platforms.
Activision has also confirmed that 'Rezurrection' will be free to Black Ops Hardened and Prestige owners, "as a thank-you to the hardcore fans for their support from the start. You'll be able to go into your Download History and re-download the classic pack you already own, and the fresh download will include the new Moon map. And you'll also get the soundtrack and theme, too."
First screenshots of the new Moon level are on this page.

Authentic Flavors of Jewish Budapest, with Taste Hungary
We've teamed up with Taste Hungary to create a unique full-day experience that incorporates a 3-hour stroll with our Jewish expert, followed by a traditional, annotated Jewish-Hungarian meal, hosted by the wife of a Rabbi in their home.
See our guide on HOW TO TOUR BUDAPEST'S JEWISH QUARTER
Barons of Budapest
Our 2.5-hour Barons of Budapest walk explores the charming 8th District and grants exclusive access to former palaces not ordinarily open to the public.
Politics, Conflict, Culture: Contemporary Budapest in Context
This political walking tour of Budapest deconstructs the values, layers and hierarchies of Hungarian society, with particular reference to the capital city's architecture, monuments, and cultural life.
People, Power and Propaganda: Communism in Budapest
This tour of communist Budapest uses architecture as a backdrop to find out how the immediate postwar decades transformed the city's urban landscape, with stops at a number of key monuments and civic spaces that mark this turbulent period.
Welcome to Budapest
The capital of a country often said to bridge Central and Eastern Europe, Budapest—much like the Hungarian language—remains anomalous, able to baffle and excite in equal measure. It can be challenging to find your feet at first, so our personalised orientation experience, led by a Context docent, is designed to answer practical questions about life in buzzing Budapest.

MailChimp shut down our ability to import our corporate house list because our list was riddled with problems and resulted in too many hard bounces. How many is too many? According to MailChimp we were pushing 30%! And given that, it is no surprise we were shut down.

Netanyahu: Militant Islam threatening the world
May 24, 2011 - 11:00 AM
WASHINGTON (AP) — Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is telling Congress that militant Islam is threatening the world.
Netanyahu urged the U.S. on Tuesday never to allow Iran to develop nuclear weapons. He said Iran would be able to put a bomb anywhere, from an Israeli subway to a missile that could one day reach Washington.
He called the threat posed by militant Islam the "greatest danger of all."

The former EastEnders actor became the fifth celebrity to leave the competition on Sunday, after the judges decided to save actress Zarrah Abrahams following the skate-off.
But before he left the show, Todd and his professional skating partner Alexandra Schmaucher treated viewers to a re-creation of the infamous routine from 2009, which saw Todd losing control and skating into the studio's ice tunnel.
However this time round it was professional Alexandra who zoomed off-set, only to return at the end of the performance.
Todd may not have been in the same league as the rest of this year's contestants, who are competing for the title of champion of champions, but viewers enjoyed watching his antics on the ice.
"I had my time and I had great fun this time round," he told This Morning's Phillip and Holly.
"I wasn't so nervous this time and I just skated like no-one was watching.
"It was nice to be invited back for the champion of champions, they had me they had Joe (Pasquale) and a few not so good skaters but I have to say it was great fun.
"I felt the love (from the public), I suppose I represent the dad that used to go around the side of the rink and then he progresses his way to the middle.
"I got round it and I didn't need a hearse and I didn't need an ambulance."
And his partner Alexandra was full of praise for the actor, she said: "Skating with Todd has been a rollercoaster or like a box of chocolates - you're not sure what you are going to get on the night.
"Our aim was to go out and have a lot of fun, because I know he was nervous."
Todd joked he will take great delight in watching the rest of the series from the comfort of his sofa with a glass of wine, but he promised he would be back on the ice as part of the goodbye celebrations for Dancing On Ice's final series.

Rosa Fort (11-1) at
Cleveland High (8-5)
Parks Field at Mickey Sellers Stadium should provide a rocking atmosphere as the Cleveland High School Wildcats will host the Rosa Fort Lions for the third round of the 4A State Football Playoffs.
Both Cleveland and Rosa Fort have been on a roll this year. After starting the year 0-2, Cleveland has won eight of its last 11 games. When the Wildcats finished second in the Region 3-4A after losing to Greenwood 46-20 three weeks back, the chances of them advancing far in the playoffs seemed slim at the time. Cleveland has found its groove, however, as the team beat West Lauderdale 42-32 in the first round at Cleveland and Byhalia 55-21 at Byhalia. In their two playoffs game, Cleveland has rushed for an average of 368.5 yards a game and 6.4 yards a carry.
Cleveland will have to continue its good work against a Rosa Fort team that has won its last seven games in a row. Rosa Fort has some coaches that have some local ties. Rosa Fort head coach Edwin Norwood is a graduate of John F. Kennedy High School and has served as an assistant coach at CHS in the past. Assistant coach Scott Eyster played quarterback at Delta State University from 2003-06 and served as Cleveland head coach in 2010, while assistant coach Kwame Jackson is a graduate of Cleveland High and has served as an assistant coach at the school.
The Wildcats have done well in head coach Kelly Causey's three years with the team as this marks the second time CHS has advanced as far as the third round of the playoffs in his tenure.
The winner of this game will take on the winner of the Lafayette-Noxubee County game for the 4A North Half Championship next week.
3A Playoffs
Louisville (13-0) at
East Side (10-3)
The East Side Trojans, under first year head coach Kendrick Woodard, has improved with each game.
After being 3-3 at one point in the season, the Trojans have seven in a row. East Side's offense in the playoffs has been on fire as of by scoring 40 or more points in a game five times during the winning streak. Jalen Thomas has done a great job of leading the offense ever since he was named starting quarter.
East Side, who is scoring an overall average of 33.4 points a game, will be playing in the third round of the 3A State Football Playoffs for a third consecutive season as the team hosts the Louisville High School Wildcats. The Wildcats have won all 13 of its games by 11 points or more. Louisville is extremely balanced as the team has rushed for 155.3 yards per game with 30 total touchdowns and thrown for 173 yards a game with 28 total touchdowns. Louisville has outscored its opponents 523-80 this season.
East Side has relied a lot on its ground game by rushing for 326.5 yards a game with an average of 8.2 yards a carry. The Trojans' defense has given up 20.6 points per game.
To advance to the third round, East Side defeated Nettleton 42-13 and North Panola 57-38, while Louisville defeated Ruleville 69-0 and Water Valley 56-27.
East Side has won 10 or more games in a four straight years, while Louisville has won 10 or more games for three straight seasons.
The winner of the East Side-Louisville game will play the winner of the Charleston-North Pontotoc game for the 3A North Half Championship next week.
Kickoff for Friday is set for 7 p.m.
2A State Playoffs
West Bolivar (9-3) at
Calhoun City (9-3)
After losing several star seniors from last year's team along with long time head coach Henry Johnson leaving to take the Clarksdale job, many people felt the West Bolivar Eagles would strictly be on the basketball court at the end of November with their football pads put up for another year.
Under first year head coach Joac Williams, the Eagles have proved many people wrong as they are still alive on the football field in the latter part of November. West Bolivar has been able to succeed with a stingy defense as the Eagles are giving up just 7.8 points per game, which is the lowest in the state in 2A and third lowest out of all the schools in all six classifications.
The Eagles will hit the road on Friday as they play the Calhoun City Wildcats in the third round of the 2A State Football Playoffs. The Wildcats' offense has been strong by scoring 28.9 points a contest.
The Eagles have advanced to the third round of the playoffs for nine straight seasons, while the Wildcats have advanced as far the third nine times in the last 12 seasons.
This game will mark the fourth time in eight years the two teams have met each other in the playoffs. Calhoun City beat West Bolivar 35-34 in 2006 in third round in Rosedale and 30-19 in the 2A North Half Title game in 2010. West Bolivar got revenge in 2011 with a 32-14 victory in the 2A North Half Title game. In 2011, the Eagles won the 2A State Title.
The winner of the West Bolivar-Calhoun City game will take on the winner of Baldwyn-Eupora in the 2A North Half Title game next week.
Kickoff for Friday is set for 7 p.m.
1A State Playoffs
Smithville (9-3) at
Broad Street (9-2)
The Broad Street High School Jaguars are having a dream season.
The Jaguars, under the leadership of head coach Damaris Mitchell, have won their last six games. Broad Street has played well in the close games as five of their wins have been by eight points or less. The team has also played good inside the friendly confines of Lit Parker Evans Field in Shelby by posting a perfect 6-0 record at home. The nine wins Broad Street has this year are the most the team has racked up since 2001 when it went 11-2 and advanced to the third round of the 2A State Playoffs.
The Jaguars, won their game with Falkner 47-29 in the first round of the 1A State Playoffs in Shelby, will be at home again for the second round when they host the Smithville High School Seminoles. Smithville advanced to the second round by edging out Shaw 22-20 last week.
This is the first time Smithville has made it as far as the second round since 2010. Broad Street is in the second round of the playoffs for the second time in three years. The Jaguars have been able to succeed with several different players stepping up in key times.
The winner of the Broad Street-Smithville game will play the winner of the St. Aloysius-Hamilton game next week in the 1A North Half Title game.
Kickoff for Friday is set for 7 p.m.

Developer Homepage: http://www.4a-games.com/

Similar to the Aliens vs. Predator picture we've got a nice boost across the board, but at 2560 x 1600 we're still just a few FPS shy of that 60 FPS average we want. It will be interesting to see just what kind of numbers we can get when we start to overclock the new HD 7970 from AMD.

Maternal Instinct
Chapter One
One stormy winter's night, Queen Chrysalis was rudely awoken from uneasy dreams to the sound of a loud crash.
She was up from her desk and on all fours in an instant, the sounds of an old stallion's yells and cannon fire still ringing loud in her ears. Her head twisted in several directions in a determined search of some unseen threat. For one horrifying moment, she might have sworn the cannon fire was still happening and her large, gnarled horn instinctively came aglow. It was the enemy! The city was under attack!
It took a moment for her still blurred mind to remember that that was nonsense, the mental ravings of a lethargic, unfocused mare still caught up in her fleeting dreams. She quickly managed to put together that the sound that awoke her was nothing but a simple roar of thunder coming from the storm raging on outside.
Trotting steadily over to a small window, she peered out at the heavy rain pounding against the pane. I

Chapter Two
Chrysalis was not having a good day. Her schedule for the day was packed with several long meetings, not just with her cabinet of ministers, but with her close advisors, her generals, the palace staff, the list went on.
The majority of governments to the world's numerous, diverse nations went through the same grind, the Queen's Kingdom in the still underdeveloped Far East being no exception, thus was the price of 'modernization'. She personally could not bear these long, tedious meetings with these incompetent buffoons inside that dreary, freezing closet of a room as they were. They already taxed heavily on her free time and basic sleep, but the ones she had today, preceded by those over the last several weeks were proving particularly painful for the ageing mare.
"Your Majesty? Are…are you with us?" That was the polite, formal way of saying, 'wake up, you lazy mare!'
Chrysalis forced her heavy eyelids open to gl

Chapter Three
The gardens of the royal palace were first built some 300 years ago, under the order of King Cocoon. They were a gift for his new wife, the beautiful Queen Consort, Vespa, who he knew adored flowers, especially those of the rare calibre. The new gardens became home to the kingdom's prettiest and rarest plant life, all for the queen and her family's eyes alone. As years passed, they took on the characteristics of the more traditional styles of Changeling gardens, and eventually divided up into a large modern ornate complex to accommodate them. Today, few creatures outside the palace have seen such an awe-inspiring pocket of the world for themselves.
"Stay on my back, Princess," Cerci told her as they trekked their way down the garden path which had been covered in a blanket of freshly fallen snow. A nasty chill was in the air, turning the koi ponds' surfaces into solid ice. The nanny wore several layers (with a satchel

The families concerned did not avail of transport during this school year, but have requested an extension of the service nearer their homes. This request has been refused as the pupils live approximately two miles from the existing service and are therefore within my Department's guideline of three miles from the route of the bus.

Douglas Edward Heath Sentenced in U.S. District Court
The United States Attorney's Office announced that during a federal court session in Missoula, on September 13, 2012, before U.S. District Judge Donald W. Molloy, DOUGLAS EDWARD HEATH, a 47-year-old resident of Helena, appeared for sentencing. HEATH was sentenced to a term of:
- Prison: 108 months
- Special Assessment: $100
- Supervised Release: 4 years
HEATH was sentenced in connection with his guilty plea to possession with the intent to distribute methamphetamine.
In an Offer of Proof filed by Assistant U.S. Attorney Paulette L. Stewart, the government stated it would have proved at trial the following:
During the years 2010 and 2011, HEATH was identified as a methamphetamine distributor in the Helena area.
Law enforcement made five controlled drug purchases from HEATH. The purchases were for as little as one gram of methamphetamine and as much as two ounces of methamphetamine, for a rough total of 3.5 ounces of methamphetamine.
Later, HEATH admitted to his participation in obtaining and distributing methamphetamine in the Helena area. HEATH traveled to Billings or Washington State for his methamphetamine in 2010 and 2011. HEATH would meet his Washington source of supply in Spokane or Yakima. HEATH stated that, for approximately a three-month time period, HEATH purchased one-half of a pound of methamphetamine every week. HEATH would distribute the methamphetamine to others in the Helena area.
Because there is no parole in the federal system, the "truth in sentencing" guidelines mandate that HEATH will likely serve all of the time imposed by the court. In the federal system, HEATH does have the opportunity to earn a sentence reduction for "good behavior." However, this reduction will not exceed 15% of the overall sentence.
The investigation was a cooperative effort between the Missouri River Drug Task Force, the Montana Division of Criminal Investigation, the Federal Bureau of Investigation, the U.S. Department of Homeland Security - Homeland Security Investigations, and the Drug Enforcement Administration.

My mother in-law fell in love with this unique sake holder at a Japanese Restaurant at the Grand Wailea Maui. They have this chilled sake decanter which holds the ice in the middle and the sake around it without touching eachother. Does anyone know wear I can get one of these on-line for her?

The fish mature in Greece, Turkey or Spain and are sold back to France, which imports 80 percent of its consumption of marine products produced in farms.

Student Life
Bard places the safety and security of our participants as the highest priority. Students will be provided with a safety and security briefing as part of the pre-departure and orientation process and will be regularly updated and supported regarding safety concerns by program staff throughout the semester.
Students will find their day-to-day experience living in Palestine to be quite different than the image often painted by the international news media. While the overall political situation remains fluid and at times tense, the reality is that tensions have mostly tempered in recent years. At the same time, the impact of the Arab Spring has increased the likelihood of more regular demonstrations and protests throughout the Middle East. Students are advised to stay aware of the political pulse of the region, are required by the program to avoid protests, demonstrations and restricted areas, and must adhere to the guidance and guidelines provided by program staff.
Street crime, violent crime, and other forms of crime are uncommon. Nonetheless, students must exercise common sense and caution at all times.
Please be advised that the U.S. State Department has an active travel warning for Israel and the Occupied Territories. Students should be aware of the information contained in this warning and are advised to consult their home institution to make sure they will be allowed to study on a program in a location under an active travel warning. Click here to review the U.S. State Department Travel Warning.
Additional information on the program's approach to safety and security can be obtained by contacting the program directly at firstname.lastname@example.com
There are no serious or unusual health risks associated with travel to the West Bank. Although not mandatory, it is a good idea to be up to date on basic vaccinations. Modern hospitals and medical facilities are readily available to students in the event of a medical emergency. Students will have access to clinics offering regular medical services, such as routine doctor's appointments. Participants are provided with health insurance to help pay for covered medical expenses they may incur during the program.

Jefferson City, Mo. – Attorney General Chris Koster said today that he has obtained a judgment for more than $130,000 against Ryan Ronney Crowell and West Bottoms Hospitality, LLC, for failing to provide wedding services or refunds to 73 couples. The judgment requires the Kansas City business and its owner to pay $43,463.80 in restitution as well as $87,346.38 in penalties and fees for violations of the Missouri Merchandising Practices Act.
Koster filed suit against West Bottoms Hospitality and Crowell last February. Following the trial in January, Jackson County Circuit Judge David M. Byrn found that the defendants contracted with 73 couples from at least September 2010 through April 2011 to rent out the historic Stowe Building for wedding ceremonies and to provide related services, including photography. Those services were never provided.
Crowell promised the couples the Stowe Building would be renovated in time for scheduled weddings and receptions, the first of which was to take place on April 10, 2011. Despite these promises, Crowell failed to apply for the required construction permits. Crowell also failed to take steps necessary to get the 100-year-old warehouse up to code to hold events as planned: the building was not wheelchair accessible, the only passenger elevator was inoperable, and the fire escape did not even reach the ground. The defendants did not inform their consumers of the permitting issues. Kansas City stopped renovations due to permit deficiencies, and ultimately canceled all 73 events. The first wedding was set to take place less than a week following the cancellation. The defendants never refunded the consumers the $43,463.80 in collected deposits and other payments. Couples were left scrambling to find other venues and wedding services.
Along with the order to pay $130,810.18, the defendants are also permanently enjoined from "taking payment for and/or providing event services in the state of Missouri, including, but not limited to wedding venue and/or reception services."
"The actions of Mr. Crowell and his business not only cost many Kansas City area brides and grooms their money, but also the expense and stress of making new plans," Koster said. "His actions marred the wedding days of 73 couples. I am pleased the Missouri Attorney General's Office was able to step in to protect consumers and stop this scam."
The Attorney General's Office noted the assistance of the Kansas City Department of City Planning and Development in prosecuting the case.

Game Change is based on a small portion of the best-selling book of the same name by John Heilemann and Mark Halperin the portion that eviscerates John McCain's selection of Sarah Palin as his running mate in the 2008 presidential campaign. While Palin herself has said that watching this HBO production is a waste of time, she need not fear further erosion of her reputation. She is impersonated here with a high degree of accuracy by no less than Julianne Moore, who portrays her as a devoted mother and a plucky campaigner.
No, it's the staff surrounding McCain and Palin that is more criticized and humiliated by the Game Change adaptation from scripter Danny Strong. The TV movie's narrative homes in on the crucial error made right from the start. Palin's vice presidential vetting process lasted a mere five days (other possible veeps were subjected to months of scrutiny, we're told) simply because McCain strategist Steve Schmidt (a gleaming-domed, ferocious Woody Harrelson) was convinced Palin was a "star," a charismatic caparison/complement to McCain (embodied with often breathtaking accuracy by Ed Harris). No matter that she had no idea why, for example, North and South Korea were two separate countries.
Jay Roach, who directed the Austin Powers films and won an Emmy for the HBO political drama Recount, knows from parody and keeps his actors from slipping into it. That's crucial for Moore, since it's tempting to overdo Palin's twangy, consonant-droppin' speech and wayward use of grammar the very qualities Tina Fey exaggerated meticulously on Saturday Night Live, a performance we see Palin/Moore watch, aghast, in Game Change.
There's no point in trying to argue that Game Change is a "fair" film: In ignoring the source book's long sections on Hillary Clinton's campaign in order to concentrate on McCain and Palin, and by re-creating many of the latter's greatest gaffes her inability to cite a single newspaper she's read in her Katie Couric interview, for instance it obviously means for us to snort and chuckle. (The movie does a wizardly job of editing actual footage of Couric and other interviewers so that they interact seamlessly with Moore's Palin.) But Game Change does stress a theme that applies to both sides of the aisle. Schmidt is the one who articulates it, while talking about the ever-changing "48-hour news cycle": Trying to calm fears that Palin's flubs will hurt McCain, he asserts, "The news is no longer meant to be important. It's just entertainment." And as we can see in the current election year, news-as-entertainment more than ever renders political issues superficial, with a media corps anxious to focus on whoever is the current poll-winning "star."

I was disappointed with CBC's clip on Michael Ryder bringing the Stanley Cup to his hometown, Bonavista. I stayed up especially to watch this segment. It was very disappointing as I did not see any of the celebration. The clip was focused on the table and the cup falling to the floor. And a recount of all the abuse that the cup has received over the years. The reporting of this piece of news was sub-standard and reminded me of the National Inquirer instead of the National Broadcast that I was expecting!

Michael Ryder likely doesn't even know who Kathy Dunderdale, Kevin Aylward or Lorraine Michael are. How did Dunderdale manage to snag a ride on the chopper?
