Billy Squier Classic Sampled On New Eminem Single
Wednesday, August 28, 2013
1980's rocker Billy Squier is back thanks to rapper Eminem sampling his classic 1981 tune "The Stroke" on his new track "Berzerk," which is the lead single from his upcoming album, The Marshall Mathers LP 2. Ultimate Classic Rock posted that the rapper's use of "The Stroke" is hardly the first time the Squier favorite has been sampled, reporting, ". . . the song's grinding chords and stomping beat that have made it a perennial favorite on rock radio have also helped turn it into a building block for rap tracks like Grandwizzard Johnny'O and the Mighty Sorcerer Crew's 'When It Breaks' and Mickey Avalon's 'Stroke Me,' as well as 'Friday Night' by mash-up artist Girl Talk. 'The Big Beat,' from Squier's 1980 solo debut, The Tale Of The Tape, is one of the most-sampled songs in history."
Billy Squier, who in recent years has as toured as part of Ringo Starr's All Starr Band, says that at this point in his life he's much more laid back about the music he makes and the business in general, and keeps his performing and recording at a very manageable pace these days: "I'm kind of taking things as they come, y'know? I've gotten to a point where instead of trying to create opportunities, I kind of wait for opportunities to present themselves. I find, I find that if someone comes to me, if someone's interested in, in me, then that's usually a project I can get involved in. I've got my eyes open, but I want to do something that's, y'know, that I want to do that other people want me to do, as well -- then everybody's happy."
Billy Squier will next perform on October 6th in Worcester, Massachusetts at the Triple Negative Breast Cancer Fund Raiser at Mechanic's Hall.

My lack of experience makes this hard to write about.
I don't even know how many birds are supposed to BE inside a friendship suitcase!
My lack of experience makes this hard to write about.
I don't even know how many birds are supposed to BE inside a friendship suitcase!
Aww, poor Jeff.
There should be kittens inside a friendship suitcase…
I've always believed the more birds in the case the better friends you want to be. I sent one to Scarlett Johansson. On a separate note, how do you remove feathers and blood stains from carpet?
Stupid Jeff, everybody knows that a friendship suitcase must have seven birds, one for every day of the week.
It's obviously four-and-twenty birds… Wait no they were baked in a pie.
If it had been a friendship pie instead this would have been much easier… Plus everybody loves pie, even with a ton of dead birds in it.
Damn! I was putting dead humans in my friendship suitcase, no wonder people thought I was a creep.
WTF now did jeff get a hold of the comic again?!
What gets me, is that Jeff knows how to spell "blood" when he draws the speech bubble, but not when he draws the bags-o-blud.
@Joshageddon Possibly Jeff didn't have much space to draw "blood."
omg im so happy
the only thing more awful than jeff.
jeff with a pencil and paper.
I love you Jeff, here have my suitcase full of hats.
I would be jeff's friend
Arrrgh! Sorry, my username didn't change.

Grow the Glow!
Using fertilizers with no harmful toxins in Waconia, Hutchinson, and the western metro market
A natural alternative
Nothing beats the feel of soft, thick grass beneath bare feet in the summertime, especially when it is cared for by Green Earth Lawn Care, Inc., in Hutchinson, Waconia and the western metro market, a company using natural fertilizer that contains no harmful toxins. Called Earthsoils, the fertilizer is a safe, alternative way to care for grass and other plants without the use of toxic chemicals.
Vibrant from root to tip
Green Earth Lawn Care, Inc. takes a different approach to lawn care than traditional custom applicators. Instead of forcing grass to grow, Earthsoils lawn products help eliminate soil compaction and give plants the necessary nutrients for vibrant color, healthy roots and shoots, and overall vigor. One healthy shoot naturally produces about seven more shoots, resulting in a thick, lush lawn.

Gettysburg, Pennsylvania, to honor Lincoln, Address on Dedication Day, Nov. 19
Event to wrap up year-long Lincoln Bicentennial Celebration
(Gettysburg, Pennsylvania) - 11/16/2009
Carl Whitehill
Media Relations Manager
Gettysburg Convention & Visitors Bureau
(717) 338-1055
Nearly five months after more than 165,000 soldiers retreated from the streets and fields around Gettysburg, the town of just 2,400 residents assembled "to dedicate a portion of that field as a final resting place," known as Soldiers' National Cemetery.
Of the thousands who came to Gettysburg that Nov. 19th, 1863, to help pay tribute to those soldiers who so bravely gave their lives in the Battle of Gettysburg was a man that would make the day – and himself – a part of American history.
President Abraham Lincoln secured his legacy in Gettysburg with just 10 sentences, a mere 272 words. His speech, polished for the final time the night before in the second floor of the David Wills house on the town square in Gettysburg, turned the town from a place of tragedy into one of hope that the nation would fulfill the dreams of their forefathers.
Nearly 150 years later, that speech – known, of course, as the Gettysburg Address – remains one of the most famous in world history. School children from all parts of the globe recite the speech in history and English classrooms and scholars continue to study Lincoln and the Address' significance on American history.
On Nov. 19th, 2009, Gettysburg will honor Lincoln and the Gettysburg Address with a ceremony in the very cemetery he delivered it 146 years earlier.
Highlighting the event will be Academy Award Winning Actor Richard Dreyfuss, who's not only a lifelong student of history, but has taken part in several documentaries about the Civil War and is now an advocate for bringing civics lessons back into American classrooms.
Also speaking will be Pennsylvania Gov. Ed Rendell.
As part of the Dedication Day event, a wreath-laying ceremony will take place at 9:30 a.m., followed by the keynote presentation and recital of the Gettysburg Address, a naturalization ceremony to which 16 immigrants will be sworn in as American citizens, and the morning is capped off with a salute to the U.S. Colored Troops buried in the Gettysburg cemetery.
Dedication Day is sponsored by the Lincoln Fellowship of Pennsylvania, the Gettysburg National Military Park and the Civil War Institute at Gettysburg College.
The Saturday following Dedication Day is Gettysburg's annual Remembrance Day, a time to honor the soldiers' who fought and died on these fields. The day – on Nov. 21 – begins at 1 p.m. with a 1 p.m. parade of several thousand Civil War re-enactors and ends with a solemn Illuminary in the Soldiers' National Cemetery, where candles and flags mark the graves of Civil War soldiers buried there.
For more information on Dedication Day, visit www.palincoln.com or call (800) 337-5015.

Nancy Wu (胡定欣) was spotted with her new boyfriend, Patt Sham (沈栢淳), abroad her 31st birthday yacht party two weeks ago. With tabloids often painting Nancy as eager to reconcile her former relationship with Kenneth Ma (馬國明), the public was surprised that Nancy has found a new romance.
In the beginning of the year, Nancy met Patt Sham through mutual friends, in which he immediately was mesmerized by her and expressed his admiration of her as an actress. Patt came from a wealthy background and had returned to Hong Kong several years ago after studying abroad. Working in the advertising industry for fifteen years, Patt has been involved in notable large advertising campaigns. In 2009, Patt established his own creative agency.
Kenneth Ma was surprised that Nancy has found a new boyfriend. Kenneth and Nancy remained friends since breaking up last year, but he did not intentionally ask her whether she has been dating since. Although Nancy has found new love, Kenneth remains single. The Ma family has not pressured the 38-year-old over dating matters, nor rushed him to get married.
Kenneth's frequent costar, Tavia Yeung (楊怡) rocked tabloids last week when she was photographed with her face in Him Law's (羅仲謙) lap last week. Kenneth said that it was normal for Tavia to relax after drinking. He also praised her for exercising caution and not driving under the influence of alcohol.
"Perhaps both Tavia and Him are popular recently, so the incident has been blown out of proportion!" Kenneth said. He also added that he has not seen Tavia heavily drunk before.

u cant expect her wait for u forever lol:)
when this new bf is rich…
And talented and also handsome.
so true
Agree, especially her current boyfriend is from a wealthy family and is an educated guy doing very well in career/business.
Probably Nancy is spending her time in dating with this Patt Sham instead of filming. Have not seen her much in recent drama series. Can't blame her. Many support actresses, such as Natalie Tong, Selena Li, Aimee Chan are being promoted to act 1st lead roles, but not Nancy Wu. And Nancy is a better actress than many new top fadans. Feel sorry for her.
and also rich
I'd move one too if my boyfriend want me to live w/his mom! It's hard enough to keep a good long relationship…don't need mother-in-laws to always butt in too!
lol…i don't know why few guys want to live with their parent even if they are married….i'm living by myself and far far far from my parent…and i'm enjoying it…they need to live with their wife, not parent!
I'm more into living near either mine or my husband's (when I get one) parents. I want to take of them myself when they get old.
when the guy needs to live with his parents, that`s a deal breaker. sorry MM.
it means that between the wife and mother, the guy will ALWAYS think the mother is right = drama.
living nearby is good enough.
a reason why he's still single. he's too much a mama's boy, that's why girls stay away even though he is a good catch. Staying with the parents when married? No way! LOL
He's looking for a girl with traits like his mother, maybe that's why he's going for older women..and Nancy as reported in teh tabloid that she has princess illness? so that maybe that what irked KM..
Actually, I don't remember reading about Nancy having princess illness until KM mentioned that to the reporter in his interview.
But then again, I don't follow their news unless I happened on them by chance, so I might have missed it.
There was NO (ZERO) article about Nancy's illness princess until MM "protected" her from this. When I saw him to say so, I felt like "Huh? She has this illness from when?" and go to check. There was nothing like that. The worst scandal to Nancy at this moment was only about her secret love with Derek Kwok.
But thank to MM's announcement, after that there are many articles to say that she had princess illness, and her image got worse after this incident as well.
So you can know why she always tried to avoid him unless Txb requested her to do the other thing.
so fox, in other word, r u implying that KM has to ethic and badmouthed Nancy? just curious lol..
No, he didn't badmouth her. Not at all. But like Nancy said, even her can't understand why she was used for promotion.
Maybe he has no ethic
Ma Ming i hope can find a girl that love u and willing to live with mother aswell.
Kenneth said that it was normal for Tavia to relax after drinking.
Relax, LMAO~.
Should wish that MM won't never drink or he'll "relax".
This is a bad picture of Kenneth Ma. He looks aged and not good looking.
He isn't goodlooking to be begin with…
Is there ever a nice at the moment picture of Kenneth? He looks terrible in the above picture!!

one-pan farro with tomatoes
I was not, in fact, looking for a new farro dish. It rarely occurs to me over the summer, when there's more eggplant/zucchini/tomatoes/peaches/plums/berries than anyone could fathom going through in the scant weeks they're available, to wish I had more whole grains in my diet. And since we're being honest, only occasionally in times that it probably should, such as in February, when refined flours and pasta are used to fill the endless gap in growing seasons. But, as it happens, because I'm terrible at timely meal-planning, I was attempting to make this chicken for dinner a couple weeks ago and it wasn't ready on time, or even close to it, and I remembered a one-pan linguine dish I'd read about in Martha Stewart Living last month that sounded fascinating. Realizing I had almost all the ingredients on hand, I rustled it up instead and felt like such a domestic diva, I nearly took a bow when I brought it out, but resisted, as I prefer to only drop one dish a season. In the dish, pasta, only enough water to cook it, an onion, garlic cloves, some cherry tomatoes, olive oil, basil, salt and red pepper flakes are combined cold, brought up to a boil and cooked until the pasta is al dente and everything else becomes the dish's saucy servant, all in a single saucepan, all at once. I realize you're all leaving me right now to make it this very moment, and I don't blame you. At the very least, you need to bookmark the recipe for when you're in a pinch, and really, when is anyone not?
The thing is, it totally fit the dinner bill when we needed it to but I wasn't as crazy about it as I should have been. It was… soft. The sauce seemed a little gummy. I had barely finished my second bite when I became obsessed, yes, actually preoccupied to the point of sickness, with making the dish with farro instead. Farro, a variety of wheat grain (here's a fantastic guide I found to more) that that has a meaty chew I find appealing in salads, soups, faux-risottos and more, isn't bad the way it is usually cooked — in water, maybe with a pinch of salt — but it's hard to argue it wouldn't benefit from a more complex flavor base. To wit, you rarely see farro dishes or salads that don't include at least one sweet thing (dried fruit or roasted-until-sweet vegetables), one bright thing (vinegar, lemon juice or a bit of pickled onion), one salty thing (crumbled feta, ricotta salata or anchovies), one crunchy thing (usually toasted nuts) and a good helping of a fat, usually olive oil, and if you're lucky, all of the above. But imagine if farro arrived from its saucepan already perfectly balanced and ready to eat?

Turning novels' plots into data points.
Motherboard has a new article about Matthew Jockers, a University of Nebraska English professor who's been studying what he calls "the relationship between sentiment and plot shape in fiction." Jockers has crunched hard data from thousands of novels in the hope of answering two key questions: Are there any archetypal plot shapes? And if so, how many?
The answers, his data suggest, are "yes" and "about six," respectively.
Jockers, it should be clear, is pursuing a different meaning of plot than the one we conventionally reach for—he conceives of it as an emotional concern more than a narrative concern. His research was spurred by a concept called syuzhet, one of a pair of terms coined by the Russian formalist Vladimir Propp. As Jockers explains, Read More »
The Flatus of Yore, and Other News
January 24, 2014 | by Dan Piepenbring
- Japanese scrolls from the Edo period depict—yes—erumpent, competitive flatulence.
- Back to more dignified fare. Guess the classic novel from its first sentence.
- Fact: Kurt Vonnegut wrote a made-for-TV movie in 1972. It's called Between Time and Timbuktu, or Prometheus-5: A Space Fantasy. Vonnegut later withdrew from the production: "I am not going to have anything more to do with film—for this reason: I don't like film." Well. As far as excuses go, that one's airtight.
- "I think empathy is a guy who punches you in the face at a bus station, and you're somehow able to look at him and know enough about what situation he was in to know that he had to do that and not to hit back. That's empathy, and nothing ever happens in writing that has that kind of moral heroism about it." A new interview with John Jeremiah Sullivan.
- As any reader of Empson's Seven Types of Ambiguity knows, vagueness can be artful, but it's especially so in Mandarin writing, where ambiguous sentences resemble optical illusions.
Weapons of Mass Instruction
November 11, 2013 | by Sadie Stein
I took my basic training on the 240-millimeter howitzer.
A rather large weapon.
The largest mobile fieldpiece in the army at that time. This weapon came in six pieces, each piece dragged wallowingly by a Caterpillar tractor. Whenever we were told to fire it, we had to build it first. We practically had to invent it. We lowered one piece on top of another, using cranes and jacks. The shell itself was about nine and a half inches in diameter and weighed three hundred pounds. We constructed a miniature railway which would allow us to deliver the shell from the ground to the breech, which was about eight feet above grade. The breechblock was like the door on the vault of a savings and loan association in Peru, Indiana, say.
It must have been a thrill to fire such a weapon.
Not really. We would put the shell in there, and then we would throw in bags of very slow and patient explosives. They were damp dog biscuits, I think. We would close the breech, and then trip a hammer which hit a fulminate of mercury percussion cap, which spit fire at the damp dog biscuits. The main idea, I think, was to generate steam. After a while, we could hear these cooking sounds. It was a lot like cooking a turkey. In utter safety, I think, we could have opened the breechblock from time to time, and basted the shell. Eventually, though, the howitzer always got restless. And finally it would heave back on its recoil mechanism, and it would have to expectorate the shell. The shell would come floating out like the Goodyear blimp. If we had had a stepladder, we could have painted "Fuck Hitler" on the shell as it left the gun. Helicopters could have taken after it and shot it down.
The ultimate terror weapon.
Of the Franco-Prussian War.

The Strange Saga of the Jane Austen Ring, and Other News
August 2, 2013 | by Sadie Stein
- Thwarted in her quest to bring Jane Austen's One Ring to the U.S., singer Kelly Clarkson has been forced to commission a replica.
- The Amazon powers that be have ensured that Vonnegut fan fic is now legal, and one can buy it via Amazon. "Bill Pilgrim, unstuck in time, is going to quickly become a Kindle Worlds favorite," says a member of the Vonnegut trust, ominously.
- "I stay away from applied fields—it is my only ethical standard as a ghostwriter. I will not help a nurse to qualify on false pretenses: who knows, it might be my parents who find themselves in their care." Confessions of an essay-mill writer.
- Presented without comment: "A Massachusetts resident pleaded guilty to stealing over $600,000 worth of books, audiobooks, and Legos."
Laughing in the Face of Death: A Vonnegut Roundtable
April 11, 2013 | by Je Banach
"Birds were talking. One bird said to Billy Pilgrim, 'Poo-tee-weet?'"
—Slaughterhouse-Five, by Kurt Vonnegut
A well-constructed e-mail and some guts on my part had one day inspired Harold Bloom to send me the phone number of his editor. A few days later I began writing for his literary criticism series with what was then Chelsea House and what is now Infobase Publishing. I put together two works on Tennessee Williams and a revamp of a guide to Conrad's Heart of Darkness before I was contracted to write a book called How to Write About Kurt Vonnegut. Most of what I had read of Vonnegut's work I had read long ago, and I had seen Vonnegut only once at a forum in Connecticut in 2006, where he appeared onstage with Joyce Carol Oates and Jennifer Weiner, the three of them parodying a dysfunctional family in a scene that led to much laughter. The theater, however, was completely absent of sound when an audience member asked a cultural-political question and Weiner sputtered, "I wasn't expecting to have to deliver a message about humanity tonight." "Well, leave," was Vonnegut's response. It was this Vonnegut moment that featured prominently in my mind's reel as I packed notebooks, an inordinate number of pens, and several of Vonnegut's novels in my bag that July in preparation for a trip to Boston. Once there, I read and took notes on one Vonnegut book per day from my room. (The hotel that I checked into, the Liberty, had served as a jail until a revolt over poor inmate conditions in the early 1970s led to its obsolescence and subsequent evolution into luxury accommodations.)
When I got tired of being cooped up I moved to the lobby, where I witnessed absurdities such as a woman pushing a very small dog in a stroller and smiling, goofing tourists wandering the open tiers of what had once been rows of jail cells, and sometimes I wandered up Charles Street and popped into the local antique stores. I couldn't afford most of what was in them, but haggled in one shop over the purchase of an antique blue-and-white tile which featured a single bird—a bluebird. It was a difficult trip, hot and coming on the tails of a year in which nothing went as planned and which involved the full stock and variety of deaths that is possible in one human year. And so I had to have this tile (symbol of happiness, you understand), and I turned over my last ten dollars to acquire it, and I read each book that week with the tile tucked away next to me, wrapped in paper in my bag. And in the strange, beautiful ways that life and art—life and fiction—can converge, I became certain that I was now living in a Vonnegut novel, filled with dark and strange humor and impossible—weren't they? shouldn't they be?—absurdities. The only highlight of the trip was an evening concert, one of Beethoven's symphonies played live by the Charles River, and I sat on the ground listening with my pants growing damp from the remnants of a recent downpour. "Music," Vonnegut said, "makes practically everybody fonder of life than he or she would be without it." But I wasn't feeling fond, and I returned home having worked hard but defeated. I put the tile away on one of my bookshelves. It wasn't until one day—after I had finished the book and had grown tired of burdens and hungry for laughter—that I saw it again. I had placed the tile so that the bird was caught in an endless nosedive. And look at its tail! What had made me think that it was a bluebird? It had the tail of a peacock! With it seeming like the natural thing to do, I turned it so that its beak was pointed skyward, so that this strange bird—a bluebird with the tail of a peacock—was now a triumphant phoenix. A ridiculous bluebird-peacock-phoenix. The summer had ended and so had the heat. And things had gone on. Poo-tee-weet.
On the eve of the anniversary of Vonnegut's death, I asked Ben Greenman, David Holub, Rick Moody, Josip Novakovich, and Avi Steinberg about their own memories of Vonnegut's work and about why everyone else should remember it, too.
How has Vonnegut influenced or informed your own work?
Ben Greenman: Through moral rigor, though not in any of the predictable ways. As a younger reader, which is when I had my strongest connection to Vonnegut—maybe not my most meaningful, but my strongest, in the fashion of first love—I took a preteen tour through Mother Night and Slaughterhouse-Five and Cat's Cradle. The things that I dimly and germinally felt about war and technology and religion and the different—but similar—risks to humanity inherent in all of them were laid out quite clearly. As time has moved along, the sources of the risks have shifted slightly, for purposes of camouflage, but the risks remain. Read More »

How to Flirt With Guys at School
Can't get the dream boy to notice you? Or you simply don't know how to flirt? You've come to the right place! Here we will teach you how to be a confident flirty woman, so put in those contacts and read carefully!
1Be conscious of your appearance. If you want to flirt with guys, the first thing that you need is to pay attention to your physical appearance. You should wear something that looks elegant, clean looking, comfortable, and at the same time, makes you feel confident. Remember, you don't need to have millions of expensive clothes to look beautiful because some simple fashions never go out of style!
- Try sporting dark, slimming jeans, a simple solid colored tank or cami, some chunky bead necklaces, or a cute sun dress.
- Avoid looking like a slob or wearing any outfits that have stains or wrinkles in them.
Ad -
2Groom yourself beautiful. Be sure that you shower and clean yourself regularly. You should also wear deodorant, shave frequently, clean your ears, brush your teeth and hair, and you could try to paint your nails. Also, try to wear your hair in a style that makes you feel pretty - have a variety of hairstyles so you don't look boring!
- If desired, use a perfume that smells sweet, but is not too overpowering. Two sprays on the neck and one spray on one wrist, then rub your two wrists together to transfer the scent.
3Give him the opportunity to approach you. Don't stay in a group. A guy may find it a little uncomfortable to approach you if you are in a large group of people. No man can bear a rejection in front of a herd. Also, he may feel that he can't approach you because of your friends.
4Ensure that you are sitting or standing alone for at least some time, so that he can approach you easily. Also, try to minimize the distance between the two of you. For example, you can sit at the chair next to him.
5Remember that actions are powerful. There are multiple ways to act flirty, here are some of the best suggestions:
- Compliments. Be sure to compliment him on things that are true. Sometimes people will make up compliments just to talk to someone, but that is the total wrong thing to do. You really should compliment on things you really like, so you sound more sincere naturally.
Eye contact. The eyes can be your most effective tool for flirting. It's possible to make a guy's heart skip a beat by giving him a playful, lusty, or lingering stare. Here is how to do it:
- If you're walking by someone you've got the hots for, give him a 2-3 second stare and then slowly glance away (slow is important). Smile just as you start to look away. He'll get the message.
- Additionally, when you're talking to a guy you like, take a second to momentarily break away from his eyes and pause on his upper body or chest. Let 2 seconds pass. Then slowly move your eyes back up and make eye contact again. This will give him chills of excitement. He'll realize that you were checking him out - and he'll love it. However, be warned that shy guys will feel uncomfortable and more nervous, as much as they may like it!
- Smile and giggle. According to polls, a laugh and a smile are the sexiest things a female can wear. If you perfect your smile and laugh to be seductive and sweet, you will find some great results. Practice forcing a natural smile and laugh, it can help through awkward situations.
Magic Touch
- You can learn to brush a guy in such a way that you send tingles up and down his spine. Casually tap him while laughing, it will give him a sense of manliness and you a touch sweetie-pie, no pun intended
6Start conversations. Approach him and start a light conversation to get things going, but don't make it too obvious that you like him. If he approaches you, look him in the eyes as a sign of affection and confidence. The best opening line is saying hello. Talk about what you have in common, talk about your surroundings, ask a question, ask for help, state an opinion.
7Get to know him. After he has come up to you and both of you have started talking, just try to find out whether he is your type or not. Is he one of the pushy ones or will stop at the line you draw. If you feel comfortable with him, carry on with the evening. In case he is not your type, just excuse yourself politely from his company. However, remember that you are the one who led him on. Now if you don't feel up to it, don't get outright rude.
8Lastly, if he's interested in you, don't just go immediately to be "best friends" or"boyfriend." Just start hanging out with him, and become friends, slowly become best friends, until it becomes even more! You want to make sure it is the right guy for you, and you know what he likes! It's fine if he doesn't seem your type; stick with him and you may have secured yourself a best friend for life!Ad
We could really use your help!
repairing couches?
cat houses?
heat rashes?
- Wear clothes that make you feel beautiful, not tight raunchy clothes.
- After you talk for awhile, start to hug and spend more time with him.
- Be yourself, or he will only like the imaginary "you".
- Put your cell phone away! It tells guys you have more important things in your life than socializing with him.
- Don't assume all guys will fall for you if you use these tips.
- Don't let anyone distract you. Keep all your attention on him!
Things You'll Need
- A crush (at school)
- some confidence
- cute, casual clothes
- clean teeth

Motte and bailey mystery
Canons Ashby in Northamptonshire is famous for its beautiful Elizabethan manor house and gardens, and medieval Church, but recent archaeological surveys have shown something unexpected and exciting.
Archaeologists were expecting to find the remains of a village underneath a field, but surveying a mysterious mound they were amazed to find the remains of a castle. It seems that there may be a Norman motte and bailey lying underground. We hope to be able to excavate a test area later in 2011 and will regularly update this website with details of the dig.
We know that in medieval times there are up to 41 houses on the site not too far from the castle, but by 1348 the community had declined due to the impact of the Black Death and enclosure. When you walk over the village you will see traces of what was the main street, and lumps and bumps in the soil which were made from ridge and furrow farming.
See what you discover for yourself
Visitors can have a go at surveying the remains themselves using the ancient art of dowsing. Dowsing, using two 'L' shaped metal rods, may respond to subtle changes in soil formation and reveal where the foundations of buildings lie hidden underground.
It doesn't work for everyone, perhaps 50% of people can make it work, but it is fun for everyone to have a go. This activity is contained in our outdoor 'Tracker Pack' available from Visitor Reception.

Overactive Bladder
Topic Overview
What is overactive bladder?
With overactive bladder, you have many strong, sudden urges to urinate during the day and night. You can get these urges even when you have only a little bit of urine in your bladder. You may not be able to hold your urine until you get to the bathroom. This can lead to urine leakage, called incontinence.
Overactive bladder is very common in older adults. Both men and women can have it, but it's more common in women.
Overactive bladder is a kind of urge incontinence. But not everyone with overactive bladder leaks urine.
Even without incontinence, overactive bladder can make it hard to do the things you enjoy. The need to drop everything and race to the bathroom can disrupt your life. And if you leak, even if it's only a little bit, it can be embarrassing.
Overactive bladder can cause other problems too. Hurrying to the bathroom can lead to falls and broken bones, especially in women who have gone through menopause.1 That's because older women are more likely to have brittle bones that break easily. In both men and women, overactive bladder can cause sleeping problems, depression, and urinary tract infections.
Many people are too shy to talk about their bladder problems. But overactive bladder can get better with treatment. Don't be afraid to talk with your doctor about how to control your overactive bladder.
What causes overactive bladder?
Overactive bladder is caused by an overactive muscle in the bladder that pushes urine out. There are many things that can make this muscle overactive. It can be caused by a bladder infection, stress, or another medical problem. Some brain problems, such as Parkinson's disease or a stroke, can also lead to overactive bladder. But in many cases, doctors don't know what causes it.
Some medicines can cause overactive bladder. Talk with your doctor about the medicines you're taking to find out if they could affect your bladder. But don't stop taking your medicine without talking to your doctor first.
What are the symptoms?
The main symptoms of overactive bladder are:
- An urgent need to urinate.
- The need to urinate often, 8 or more times a day.1
- Waking up to urinate 2 or more times a night.
- The need to urinate even if you have just gone to the bathroom.
- Taking many trips to the bathroom only to urinate just a little bit each time.
- Leaking urine when you have the urge to urinate.
You may have some or all of these symptoms.
How is overactive bladder diagnosed?
Your doctor will do a physical exam. He or she will ask what kinds of fluids you drink and how much. Your doctor will also want to know how often you urinate, how much, and if you leak. It may help to write down these things for 3 or 4 days before you see your doctor.
Your doctor probably will also do a few tests, such as:
- A pelvic exam if you are a woman.
- A rectal exam if you are a man.
- A urine test.
- A blood test.
You may have more tests if your doctor thinks your symptoms could be caused by other problems, such as diabetes or prostate disease.
How is it treated?
The first step in treatment will be to try some things at home, such as urinating at scheduled times. Your doctor may ask you to urinate every 2 hours during the day even if you don't have the urge. This is called bladder retraining. It can help you regain control.
You can also do special exercises called Kegels to make your pelvic muscles stronger. These muscles control the flow of urine. Doing these exercises can improve some bladder problems. It may help to work with a physical therapist who has special training in pelvic muscle exercises.
There are other changes you can make that can help:
- Cut back on caffeine drinks, such as coffee, tea, and sodas.
- If it bothers you to get up at night to urinate, cut down on fluids before bed. But don't cut down on fluids at other times of the day. You need them to stay healthy.
- When you go to the bathroom, urinate as much as you can. Then relax for a few seconds and try again. Practice this each time you urinate.
- At night, if you have trouble getting to the toilet in time, clear a path from your bed to the bathroom. Or you could put a portable toilet by your bed.
If you're leaking urine, your doctor may give you medicine to treat incontinence. But doctors usually prescribe medicine only when bladder training and exercises don't work.
Surgery is not usually done for overactive bladder.

Judges and the law
This unit considers the way that judges make law, how the common law system works and the advantages and disadvantages of a system like the British one that relies heavily on such rules and rule making. The unit will set out the basic differences between 'civil code' systems and 'common law' systems, and consider the relationship between judge-made law and statutory law.
This study unit is an adapted extract relevant to The Open University course W100 Rules, rights and justice: an introduction to law, which is no longer taught by the University.

Leader in Me's Allen school ranked highest in the county
By Marvin Jones President and CEO Like any proud parent, the chamber takes a huge amount of pride in knowing that the first school to adopt The Leader in Me initiative was the highest scoring school in Ross County for the 2011-2012 year! And the second school to adopt it came in number two!
Allen Elementary's staff, led by Principal Jason Fife, recorded a performance index score of 102.8 in the rankings just released Wednesday by the Ohio Department of Education. It was the only score above 100 for any of the 25 buildings in the county. The school was rated excellent for the third consecutive year. Worthington Elementary, under the guidance of Principal Lawrence Butler last year and now being led by Matt Thornsberry, had the second highest ranking in the index at 98.5 and was rated effective.
Not to diminish the achievements of any other school in the city or county (Adena's was the only other elementary rated excellent), the scores at Allen are extremely impressive. Compared with the other nine county and city elementaries, Allen ranked first in the number of students passing achievement tests in grade 3 reading (93.2 percent), grade 3 math (93.2), grade 4 reading (87.2), grade 5 reading (93.8), grade 5 math (84.4) and grade 5 science (81.3). Its attendance rate of 96.0 percent also was the best of any of the 25 buildings in the county.
Allen adopted The Leader in Me initiative to begin the 2009-2010 school year with all of the funding for staff training, student activity guides, teacher guides and other supplies paid from investments made by the chamber and its members. Worthington began using the principles in the 2010-2011 school year. All elementaries in Ross County in the spring of 2009 were offered the opportunity by the chamber to adopt The Leader in Me, but at the time, only Allen accepted.
The Leader in Me is predicated on the "7 Habits of Highly Effective People" by the late Dr. Stephen Covey. To date, chamber members have invested more than $85,000 in the initiative that provides the young students with what are termed soft skills, such as working in teams, respect for others, taking personal responsibility and finding solutions to problems that benefit everyone. These are the skills in demand by employers today.
Allen now is working on achieving Lighthouse status in the FranklinCovey organization which would make it one of less than 30 schools nationwide that meet certain standards of excellence. In addition to Allen and Worthington, Tiffin, Mt. Logan and the middle school began using the initiative earlier this year giving Chillicothe the designation as the only one in Ohio to use it district-wide.
Reception chance to meet those on the ballot The chamber's annual Candidates Reception, open to the public, is set for Tuesday (Oct. 23) at 6:30 p.m. at the Ross County Service Center. Candidates for local and state legislative offices will have an opportunity to address the audience for three minutes each, but otherwise, it will be a chance for folks to talk one-on-one or in groups with the people who will be taking office in 2013. Refreshments will be served.
BAB crowd checks out Wagner's About 170 took advantage of the great weather Wednesday to eat, drink and be merry under the tents of Chillicothe Tents for Events and to check out Wagner's Bar & Grill at Pleasant Valley and Adena roads for the Business After Business. Shane and Jeremy Clark and their families took ownership of the tavern 14 months ago and are into their seventh year with the tents business. More than 20 went away with a door prize, including Chad Walters who won the 32-inch flat-screen HD TV.
Chamber Expo ready for exhibitors About 40 chamber members get the chance to talk to other members and the public about their products and services at the annual combined Expo and Business After Business. Space is limited for the event on Wednesday, Nov. 14 at the Elks on West Second Street. Each 8-foot table space costs $125 and exhibitors are to provide a door prize with a value of at least $25 to be given out near the end of the evening. To reserve a space, click here.
Short takes New electric meters on the way: The same as Columbia Gas, American Electric Power is retrofitting all of its meters with radio frequency transmitters to allow for remote readings by handheld or other mobile devices. It plans to replace 204,000 meters in its territory, including about 2,500 in Chillicothe, starting next Wednesday (Oct. 24). As with the gas meters, the effort is to reduce the number of estimated readings with actual ones.
Kroger has big expansion plans: No word yet on whether local stores will be affected, but Kroger announced this week it plans to invest $200 million to expand current stores and add new ones. It also plans to spend $500 million to buy back stock.
First PechaKucha set for Oct. 25: Costumes are encouraged for the first PechaKucha in Chillicothe on Thursday, Oct. 25 at the Park View Gallery on West Water Street from 7-10 p.m. The event features presentations where the format shows 20 slides for 20 seconds each. At 9 p.m., a masquerade parade is planned with cash prizes and the special guest will be comedian Lori Graves.
Management series resumes: Coach and author Libby Gill kicks off the latest installment of the TechSolve Management Leadership series on Nov. 8, sponsored by the chamber, OSU Small Business Development Center, SBA and Ohio University-Chillicothe. Gill will talk about her "Clarify, Simplify & Execute" process to ignite innovation success. Set for OU-C's Technology and Business Development Center, the event is free with registration and breakfast at 8 and the program running from 8:30-11 a.m. Click here to register to attend.

League, United Way team for campaign The Junior Civic League aided the retail division of the United Way, led by Dave Huggins, in a blitz Tuesday.

Article brought to you by: Catholic Online (www.catholic.org)NSA has monitored German chancellor's phone call since 2002
By Catholic Online (NEWS CONSORTIUM)
October 28th, 2013 Catholic Online (www.catholic.org) German Chancellor Angela Merkel has declared that "spying among friends does not work." Attending the summit of European leaders in Brussels, Der Spiegel newspaper has revealed that the United States' national Security Agency has been monitoring Merkel's phone calls since 2002. LOS ANGELES, CA (Catholic Online) - In response, President Barack Obama assured Merkel he would have stopped it happening had he known about it.The incident has prompted Germany to summon the U.S. ambassador this week for the first time in living memory, which proves that the incident is an unprecedented post-war diplomatic rift. Merkel's mobile telephone had been listed by the NSA's Special Collection Service since 2002 and was still on the list weeks before Obama visited Berlin in June, according to newspaper reports. In a service document cited by Der Spiegel, the agency said it had a "not legally registered spying branch" in the U.S. embassy in Berlin, the exposure of which would lead to "grave damage for the relations of the United States to another government." NSA and CIA staff then tapped communication in the Berlin's government district with high-tech surveillance. Der Spiegel quoted a secret document from 2010 that such branches existed in about 80 locations around the world, including Paris, Madrid, Rome, Prague, Geneva and Frankfurt. The magazine said it was not clear whether the SCS had recorded conversations or just connection data. "We're not going to comment on the details of our diplomatic discussions," said Caitlin Hayden, a spokeswoman for the National Security Council at the White House. An ongoing rift over U.S. surveillance activities first emerged earlier this year after reports that Washington had bugged European Union offices and had tapped half a billion phone calls, emails and text messages. Germany says it plans to send its intelligence chiefs to Washington in the coming days to seek answers on the spying allegations. Germany is also working with Brazil's Dilma Rouseff on a draft United Nations General Assembly resolution to guarantee people's privacy in electronic communications. In response, as many as 1,000 demonstrators rallied Saturday outside the U.S. Capitol against NSA spying, demanding an end to mass surveillance of individuals. In a television interview, former CIA deputy director Michael Morrell said that Edward Snowden's leaks are "the most serious compromise of classified information in the history of the U.S. intelligence community." The most damaging leaked document, according to Morrell was the so-called Black Budget, detailing where the U.S. spends its money on intelligence efforts. Morrell said Snowden has put Americans at greater risk "because terrorists learn from leaks and they will be more careful," and the country will not get the intelligence it would have gotten otherwise.

PUNXSUTAWNEY — Sure, you know about the Pirates 20-year losing streak coming to an end this year, but did you know that the boys' golf team had a streak of its own?
The last time the Chucks lost at Punxsutawney Country Club to a District IX opponent was Sept. 18, 2006, when Brookville defeated Punxsy 160-171. Seven years and one day later, it happened again.
The only problem is, this one cost them a berth for the AML Championship against Ridgway.
By just one stroke (174-173), the Raiders ended the streak and advanced to face Ridgway.
PUNXSUTAWNEY — Can you believe that tonight marks the fourth football game of the season for Punxsutawney already?
The Chucks wasted no time kicking off their season with three enticing games.
If you ask head coach Alan Nichol, the game that his team plays each week is the most important game of the season.
It is, after all, the only game that they can focus on or control.
But the first three had a different feeling to them.
The annual Route 36 game kicked off the season, which featured the Chucks traveling to Brookville to take on their new school rival.

The following is information gathered by my father, Emmet Edward Gallagher, over many years and I wanted to get this transfered to Family Tree Maker from the Mormon PAF program so we can easily share with all. sg Dear Family and friends, Early in the process of gathering information on any family, a person realizes how little information has been recorded and saved about them. Even the stories that have been passed down from person to person and generation to generation are difficult, and often impossible, to prove or disprove. Thus, we must use what is available and it becomes obvious WE MUST RECORD what little we have or it may be lost forever and never be done. The key word is "We" because if it is to be, "We" cannot expect "Somebody Else" to do it! Certainly, it is vitally important that we and our following generations know where we came from and why we are as we are. The words of James J. Metcalfe entitled "Old Memories" come to mind: There are those special memories We cherish through the years Most of them are happy ones A few are touched by tears They all become more beautiful The older now we grow And with their age they take their place As days of long ago They are the pictures of the past For which we sometimes yearn But which we know so well are gone And which can not return And yet those memories can play A most important part As they inspire or console Or elsewise help the heart As the family story gets ready to unfold, you have to be told there are mistakes in what we hope you will read.......perhaps lots of them, but they weren't put there on purpose. We hope you will tell us about them and give us any additional information you may have or that someone else has. Let's get started. We hope you enjoy what we have done as much as we have in putting it together. Please don't forget to give us your thoughts, especially if you have information we can add or correct.

With the launch of the first plug-in diesel hybrid car soon to arrive in the UK, its maker, Volvo reveals plans to ramp up production after the first 1,000 models were quickly snapped up.
The new Volvo V60 Plug-in Hybrid isn't only the first rechargeable diesel hybrid, Volvo also claim that it is the first premium plug-in model, and as such have plans to step production up from the initial 1,000 models to 4,000 to 6,000 cars for the model year 2014, meaning availability will likely remain tight.
First deliveries of the model are now expected to begin in early 2013, with just around 150 models of the first production run expected to make it to the UK. Around 5-15 per cent of the second production run is likely to head to the UK.
Uniquely, Volvo is producing its first hybrid model on the same production line as the non-hybrid V60, V70, XC70, S80 and XC90 models at its Torslanda plant in Gothenburg.
"We are first in the industry to integrate a plug-in hybrid in an established production flow together with other car models," says Peter Mertens, Senior Vice President Research and Development at Volvo Car Corporation. "The integration in the standard production flow gives the plug-in hybrid buyer the possibility to choose in principle all options available for the standard V60."
Buy one car, get two free
The car, promoted as being 'three cars in one', can drive in one of three modes- fully electric, hybrid or four wheel drive-labelled as the Pure, Hybrid and Power driving functions. Using a five-cylinder 2.4-litre turbo diesel producing 215 hp, the V60 Plug-in also features a 70 horsepower electric motor and a 11.2kWh lithium ion battery pack, installed under the floor.
It has a range of up to 32 miles per charge in electric-only mode and is likely to achieve a mpg rating of around 134mpg and an emissions rating of around 45g/km CO2. In the UK, prices start from £45,000 after a £5,000 government grant has been deducted.
The car can be recharged for additional EV driving range, from a regular power outlet (230V/6A, 10A or 16A). A full charge with 10A takes 4.5 hours. This is cut to 3.5 hours with 16A charge.
The Volvo V60 Plug-in Hybrid was developed in collaboration with Swedish energy firm, Vattenfall and was financed jointly.
"The V60 Plug-in Hybrid is a unique car, a historic step, not only for Volvo Car Corporation but for the entire car industry. The first year's 1,000-car batch has sold out even before the car has reached the showrooms and the order books for next year's cars are already filling up," concludes Peter Mertens.
