You want to know why more than half of the AP voters have Duke outside of the top five?
Because that's where the Blue Devils belong.
You want to know why one AP voter has Duke inside of the top two?
Because ... I have no idea.
But I appreciate Ron Morris doing it because it makes for an easy Poll Attacks.
Associated Press poll: Where would you rank a team that's A) suffered two losses to currently unranked teams, B) beaten zero currently ranked teams, C) gone 2-2 against four unranked teams in true road games, and D) been without its best player since early December?
If your name is Ron Morris, you'd rank that team second.
You'd be crazy, of course.
But that's what you'd do.
Because that's what Ron did.
(You can click this link see for yourself thanks to PollSpeak.com)
Granted, this is better than last week, when Ron was the lone AP voter who had Duke ahead of Ohio State. But it's still wrong because the Blue Devils' resume wasn't worthy of a No. 2 ranking last week, and it sure isn't worthy of No. 2 ranking after Sunday's blowout loss at St. Johns. To prove this, let's compare the bodies of work of the school Ron has No. 2 (Duke) and the school I have No. 2 (Pittsburgh).
----- Duke -----
Record: 19-2
Wins over currently ranked teams: 0
Losses to currently unranked teams: 2 (Florida State, St. John's)
Losses to currently ranked teams: 0
----- Pitt -----
Record: 20-2
Wins over currently ranked teams: 4 (No. 3 Texas, No. 6 Connecticut, No. 13 Georgetown, No. 17 Syracuse)
Losses to currently unranked teams: 1 (Tennessee)
Losses to currently ranked teams: 1 (No. 9 Notre Dame)
Now allow me to recap: Pitt has at least four wins better than any win Duke possesses, and Pitt has only one loss to a currently unranked team whereas Duke has two. So the Panthers have more wins than Duke, better wins than Duke and two losses that aren't as bad as Duke's two losses. And yet Ron has Duke No. 2 and Pittsburgh No. 4. I bet you a briefcase full of Charlie Sheen's coke that he couldn't possibly defend that order with anything of substance.
Coaches poll: We might find out in March that Utah State is the next Butler or George Mason or whatever, at which point this version of the Poll Attacks will look stupid. But for now the coaches ranking the Aggies 21st is what looks stupid.
What's it based on?
A bunch of bad victories?
The Aggies have played two legitimate basketball teams (BYU and Georgetown) and lost both games by an average of 11.5 points. Beyond that, they haven't done much of note. All 20 of their wins are against teams ranked outside of the Top 100 of the latest RPI, meaning Utah State is 0-2 against the Top 100 and 20-0 against teams outside of the Top 100. Congratulations, I guess. But where I'm from, that's not good enough. You want to be ranked, beat somebody. Because beating a bunch of nobodies doesn't do much for me. Again, if Utah State proves me wrong in March, I'll apologize. But for now the Aggies are just a team stacking wins against weak competition after losing their only two games against good competition.

Parrish's unhealthy obsession with Duke is rivaled only by Keith Oberman's obsession with Sarah Palin. As a Duke fan I agree wholeheartedly that they should be ranked around 10 or 12, but that's not the point. The point is with everything else going on in College BB, Parrish has yet again let his neurotic fixation on Duke manipulate and control his shrivled mind.

It is also a mistake to not include the Big 12 as one of the best BBall leagues in the country. I won't argue Big East or Big ten. but SEC? they are way down on the Bball list. The Big 12 has the best interleague record in the country. They have the third best RPI. Surly you do not believe that the SEC is better than the Big 12.
Oh well, wait till March. Then the Big East will flame out early. (based on the last few yrs) and the SEC will mostly be a no show.
But March is fun, and this is why. Good luck to all. May the best team be standing in April.

I am A Big Ten Fan And A life time Ohio State fan. I will say the Big East is better with no problem. I would say that has been the case for some time now one reason why is they have more teams but that is not the only reason why . But when you look at history over the last 25 years there have been only 4 teams from the big east that have won the National Championship. In those 25 years there have been so many teams from each conference that have had 1 or 2 teams good enough to win it all. As you can see that has not happened. The reason why is because basketball is a sport and any sports fan like me who has watched sports for over 40 years knows that on any given day a bad team can beat a very good team. Last year I did not think Duke was good enough to win it all and look at what happened. Many years the best team does not win the Chamionship because as I mentioned before on any given day anybody can beat anybody. I would say good luck Duke but since My Ohio State team is so good this year I can't. I do though have a lot of respect for Duke and it's basketball program.

I see all these people arguing over "bla bla hasnt played anybody" or "bla bla lost to this unranked team" or "who has bla bla played."
Yall can argue all you want about how Duke hasnt beaten anybody in the top 25 and that they lost to fsu and st johns. or that kansas hasnt beaten anybody. or that all the big east teams only beat each other. or that the sec is weak. no team really stands out as an all out favorite. a lot of teams are starting to more and more have superstars like fredette and kemba walker.... where a team like a seton hall (with hazell) can beat any team in the country (ie hazell gets hot and carries them) yet can lose to any team in the country when hazell (their best scorer) goes cold on any given night. yall can downplay that duke lost to teams like st johns when this year ANY TEAM would have trouble going to ANY big east teams home and playing them. Duke may be without their star player (freshman) but they also didnt lose much from last eyars squad which won the whole thing. the same "thing" that all teams are trying to win again this year. and you can knock teams like kansas and claim they havent played anyone.... when no matter how you look at it... chances are if they played your team....then your team would be catching some Ls right now. this years top 25 is so close and so many teams can beat so many teams that top 25 isnt really gonna matter. did you see how many teams lost to teams ranked below them last week alone? does this make them better? not even close. is st johns better than duke? probably not? but on that day and in new york city they were. im a syracuse fan? after losing 4 straight do i think they deserve to be even in the top 25? probably not. but you def cant knock the big east, theyve been beating everyone in out on conference games for a while now. duke may have played 2 teams and lost... but this is the same squad that won the whole thing last year and as for kansas.... "who have they played?" does it matter? cause theyve beaten those said teams. same goes with many. teams like byu, texas, uconn, nova, pitt, ohio st.... those teams can beat anyone on any given night including each other. remember of all the teams that make the tourney.... only 1 ends on a winning streak. teams are bound for losses. so... not only should u not care about whos in the top 25 right now.... but def dont care about what Parrish thinks.... you put his brain in a birds body and the bird would fly backwards. he disagrees just to stir up arguments, its why he gets paid.... to write retardedly inaccurate articles and the more responses the more of a success he thinks he is cause more and more people responded. thats my case and im sticking to it. go big east. and... syracuse... my prayers r with u. :P

Gary, I am curious about the poll on Sportsline's front page. Which is the best basketball conference: Big East, Big Ten, or SEC?
Uhhh... Ok with the first two, but the SEC? I count 1 team in the top 25... the Big 12 by contrast has 2 in the top 3, two other teams in the top 25, and at least 3-5 more tournament teams.
I realize CBS wants to promote "THE SEC ON CBS" but c'mon, man!

I somewhat agree with the rankings, but as for the big east, why don't we just rank the whole division and base the top 25 off them? It does'nt matter who or how many losses each team may have, they never seem to impact any Big East team, WHY?

One of those was the ShopRite chain, which opened stores last month in old Superfresh buildings in Timonium and White Oak.
The New Jersey-based co-op includes 47 members that own more than 230 ShopRites in six states; it lists eight other stores in Maryland. The Sumas family, which opened its first supermarket in 1937, owns the newest locations. Four generations of the family have run stores in New Jersey and Pennsylvania through their company, Village Super Market Inc.
Bill Sumas, vice chairman of the company, talked to The Baltimore Sun about entering this market during a visit to the Timonium store in preparation for its opening.
How does a co-op benefit the customer?
A co-op benefits the customer in a lot of ways. Good prices. Community involvement. ... Members of the family are very active in the business every day. Everyone is working on a high level of expertise and it works.
How can you succeed where Superfresh couldn't?
We are a little more flexible in meeting the needs of the customers. ... Our marketing expertise is second to none.
Grocery chains have incredibly small margins — how do you deal with that?
Yes, we have 1 percent margins.
Because of the economies of scale that the co-op makes possible and the family's involvement, it keeps us moving in the right direction.
Why did you want to come to the Baltimore area?
We had other members come. … We looked at the success of those operations. … When the real estate came open because of the bankruptcy, we decided it was a good opportunity to come to this area.
The stores the others have opened have done well?
Yes, they have. They opened in 2008, and those stores are doing well. … We thought that we could take advantage of that.
What people liked about Superfresh was their double coupons. Will you have a coupon strategy similar to what they have?
Yeah, we have double coupons and sometimes triple coupons. We have senior savings, and we have everyday values as well.
Superfresh had 25 or so locations. Why did you choose this one and why didn't you choose more?

KLIATTVine Deloria, noted Native American historian, lawyer and theologian, does not care for either creationism or evolutionary theory as they are presented and debated in the American schools today. He assesses both arguments in detail, citing copiously from scientists and theologians, and essentially rejects both positions as faulty. While he seems to defend a position called Intelligent Design, to accept a form of evolution called "catastrophism," and to call for a more attentive study of the non-Western religious traditions, Deloria essentially proposes no specific answer to the questions of the world's and man's origins. This is not a work to be dipped into. To grasp any sense of Deloria's thinking, the reader must study the book from beginning to end. Even then it is difficult, not because of the writing style, which is elegant and often humorous, but because of the myriad citations from numerous scholars and scientific researchers. Each citation is annotated, however, and the bibliography and index are quite complete. Science teachers and advanced placement science students may find this work controversial, but it is definitely worth reading. KLIATT Codes: A—Recommended for advanced students and adults. 2002, Fulcrum, 274p. notes. bibliog. index., Ages 17 to adult.

The Sky Is Everywhere (edition 2010)
by Jandy Nelson
Work details
The Sky Is Everywhere by Jandy Nelson
No current Talk conversations about this book.
Ok this book contains some of the most beautiful metaphors and writing I have ever read. Although I had trouble connecting to the main character, I really enjoyed immersing myself into this traumatic, deep and soul-sucking story.
We follow Lennie; 16-years-old, introverted, companion pony and recently wracked with grief over the death of her best friend, her sister. We all handle grief in different, sometimes un-characteristic ways and Lennie's just happens to be one of the latter; all she can think of is sexual interactions and kissing the opposite sex and this is exactly what lands her in trouble as if it wasn't hard enough. First she's making out with her dead-sister's boyfriend which is extremely closely followed by eating the face of the new boy in town. She needs to get a grip before she loses the "love of her life" whilst continuing to hold on to the only remaining essences of her sister.
There are a lot of aspects in this book that I would LOVE to delve into and discuss but this post would be super long so I'll try and summarise.
First of all, Jandy Nelson made the right choice with stepping into writing novels from her usual poetry only work. Damn can she write. Every page is full of beauty and it grips you, haunts you, soothes you and move you. It's a sure work of art.
I especially love the extra tidbits; the "found" poems written by the character which begin or follow a new chapter. It makes the story feel so real and binds you with emotion. The situation covered in the book is real enough and everyone can relate, in some way, to each character, at any age.
The characters I loved the most are Grams (because she's so real and I feel so sorry for her time and time again. This is the character that truly breaks my heart) and Big (because he is so awesomely eccentric, even when he's suffering, and always puts a smile on my face). I'm not saying that I hated the other characters, I just didn't really believe in them so much and who doesn't have a crazy uncle?!
The main drawback for me in this was Lennie. I understand that she's going to be in the pit of darkness and despair and make some questionable decisions and maybe act out, but I just don't believe (since the whole story pretty much envelopes you in the idea that her and her sister are so close) that she could be so stupid with Toby. She even said she never understood what her sister saw in him then 5 mins later she's eating his face and continues to do so even when she's supposedly in love. That's the other thing... falling in love after 3 days... I don't buy it... sorry. She comes off (to me) as extremely selfish, immature, self-indulgent and extremely hypocritical so I found it hard to really sympathise with her until maybe the end. The only situation she didn't have any control over was Bailey dying but the rest she brought upon herself. Yes, you can argue that it's the extent of the grief but it just didn't sit right with me. The way she treated other people grated so hard on me and then the way she would cry about it just... eugh.
I did like Toby and I did believe in him making the mistake because he lost a lot more in the sense he lost the future he'd dreamed of and planned for. I believed him and really felt for him but still, I was screaming at him half the time too but I could forgive him more that Lennie.
Joe is great, everyone loves Joe. Falling in love so quickly though? Even after all he's been through... I don't know...
Overall I would give 3 1/2 stars to this book because I was so captivated by the words and imagery, some of the characters and the extra poems but I just wasn't as emotionally crippled as I would expect from a book dealing with such a traumatic and serious theme.
Lennie, 17, lost her older sister four weeks ago, when Bailey died unexpectedly from a heart arrhythmia. The girls were especially close because their mother had abandoned them when Lennie was one, and they were raised by their grandmother and uncle. But their relationship was never equal; Bailey was the lead star, the race horse, and Lennie played the "companion pony," "the side-kick sister, tucked into a corner of her shadow." Lennie thought she was happy that way.
Now that a month has passed, it is time for Lennie to return to school. She hasn't been in touch with her friends; she has withdrawn from everyone, communicating only with her dead sister by leaving small notes and poems all around for Bailey perhaps to see from Heaven. But unexpectedly upon returning to school, hormones kick in for Lennie, and they do so with a vengeance. Lennie finds herself dealing with two attractions at once: her sister's boyfriend Toby, and a new guy in school, Joe, who not only plays music with abandon and passion and courage, but has a personality to match, and a smile as big as the sun.
When Toby and Lennie are together, they feel like she somehow they are getting Bailey back. Lennie reflects:
"Bailey loved both Toby and so much - he and I almost make up her whole heart, and maybe that's it, what we were trying to do by being together, maybe we were trying to put her heart back together again."
Then there's Joe, who makes Lennie feel joy, and like she wants to be alive. But this feels like a betrayal to Bailey:
"I don't believe time heals. I don't want it to. If I heal, doesn't that mean I've accepted the world without her?"
Lennie, her family, and Toby, have to learn how to grieve and how to heal, and Joe has to decide if he can accept their choices.
Evaluation: Though the plot sounds like a very ordinary coming-of-age story, in fact this book is extraordinarily well done. It is full of poetry and music, passion and compassion, and endearing episodes of teenage angst and humor. This author is terrific, and the writing is exceptional. It is not a depressing book; rather, it is an exuberantly told story of self-discovery, renewal, and an affirmation of life.
Lennie's older sister Bailey died suddenly at age 19, leaving a grief-stricken younger sister, grandmother, uncle, and boyfriend behind. Unable to cope, Lennie takes to scribbling poems and memories on scraps of paper or trash and burying them around town or in the garden or woods, and she and Bailey's boyfriend Toby turn to each other for comfort. Though she knows it's wrong, Lennie also thinks that Toby is the only other person who understands her grief.
Though Bailey's death was devastating, it has also broken Lennie open to be herself in the world, not just Bailey's shadow. A new boy in school, Joe, falls in love with the new Lennie - crazy sad, musical, beautiful - and Lennie is torn between Toby and Joe.
Set in the same Northern California setting as I'll Give You the Sun, The Sky is Everywhere also shares its offbeat culture, unusual family arrangements, honoring of art and music, and closeness with the natural world. And, of course, there are some pretty top-notch kissing scenes. Ultimately, Lennie faces the question of how to build her own identity, even as she manages (or, sometimes, doesn't manage) her grief.
What are we going to do with all this love? (Lennie and Toby, 31)
Grief is a house that disappears / each time someone knocks at the door / or rings the bell (fragment of Lennie's poem, 73)
When I'm with him, / there is someone with me / in my house of grief, / someone who knows / its architecture as I do... (Lennie's poem, 80)
But what if music is what escapes when a heart breaks? (86)
I told him I was looking at the sky. He said, "That's a misconception, Lennie, the sky is everywhere, it begins at your feet." (Uncle Big, 117)
How can the cost of this change in me be so great? It doesn't seem right that anything good should come out of Bailey's death. (144-145)
We can't keep wrapping our arms around a ghost. (148)
I heard this expression once: Each time someone dies, a library burns. I'm watching it burn right to the ground. (152)
How will I survive this missing? How do others do it? (168)
This is our story to tell. ...I've never once thought about the interpretative, the storytelling aspect of life, of my life. I always felt like I was in a story, yes, but not like I was the author of it, or like I had any say in its telling whatsoever. (185)
...missing her, missing the girl I used to be around her, missing who we all used to be. We will never be those people again. She took them all with her. (208)
I try to fend off the oceanic sadness, but I can't. It's such a colossal effort not to be haunted by what's lost, but to be enchanted by what was. (275)
This book is not for me. I was on board for the first few pages, but I have a hard time getting into story where the main conflict is "do I choose this boy or that boy". I just can't sympathize with any character caught up in a dilemma of riches. Maybe this a thing girls go through, maybe it's a problem they like to read about. But it makes me want to smack them all in the face. Especially in this case, when the drama isn't even that good.
It has been three months since Lennie's sister died. Lennie always lived her life gladly in the shadow of her more exuberant sister, including vicarious romance with Toby, her sister's boyfriend. Now she's insecure about her feelings for Toby and the new hippie kid who just moved in and has "hella good hair" so he wants him to come on over and shake, shake, shake.
The sister thing reminded me a little bit of Frozen, but that's the only part that appealed to me. Like others of its genre, the plot is driven forward by misunderstandings, refusals to listen, misinterpretations, and other petty obstacles that could be solved with thirty seconds of talking.
The style is full of trite teenspeak and quotations way beyond their years (Lennie constantly reads Wuthering Heights -- isn't that about a mentally abusive man who marries his beau's daughter? -- but oh precious she is that she reads something so adult). At one point, it's revealed that the sister was pregnant at the time of her death, but no one raises a hand about how they, as teenagers, expected to raise it, earn money, get a house. Everyone was too entranced by the tragic baby romance.
This is for people who un-ironically enjoy the romances you see in Hannah Montana and The Bachelor. There are essentially no stakes, and the characters are too hippie-dippie to be realistic.
The Sky is Everywhere is about Lennie Walker, a 17 year old girl who has just lost her sister Bailey. As she deals with her grief, Lennie meets and falls in love with the new boy in school, Joe Fontaine, a fabulous musician who sweeps her off her feet and helps her forget her sorrow. However, her relationship with Joe is complicated by the strange feelings of attraction she has for her (dead) sister's boyfriend Toby.
And so begins my problem with this novel. I just could not buy into the two main points of the plot: 1) that Lennie could fall madly in love with Joe, who she really doesn't know at all, in just a couple of days time and 2) that Lennie would be attracted (and act on her attraction) to her dead sister's boyfriend. I just found these plot points to be extremely annoying, and I really could not enjoy anything else in the novel. I gave it 2 stars only because I did stay interested enough to finish, but just barely.
To expand on those points, I realize that this is a novel written for teenagers. So as a 33 year old, I am definitely not the target audience. So that could be my problem. However, I have read many, many young adult books that I truly loved. Just not this one. The idea of Lennie "thinking" she is in head over heels in love with this boy Joe who she just met is probably realistic for many teenagers. But the romance in the story had no build up; there was no explanation of how the two characters grew to know each other or how their love blossomed. They just met and then suddenly they were in love, except that Lennie kept making out with her sister's boyfriend Toby as well. Enter annoying plot point number two. And I was just continually annoyed as I turned the pages.
Reading other reviews, many people seemed to connect with these characters and this story. So maybe I am missing something in this book. For me, it didn't feel real and I didn't feel a connection to anyone in the story. Perhaps it was well written as many others have said? I was too annoyed by the story to pay much attention to the writing!

You did contact the cemetery to make sure the data on F.A.G. is correct as well as that he is buried there, right?
It would be almost impossible to have 2 men with the same name die on the same exact date after being born on the same day in Norway, as well! LOL

You are welcome for the photo. I have tried to find Margaret Stout without any luck so far. The obit says she is buried with her husband George but there is nothing around his tombstone.

Meet Malaysia's first female mixed martial artist
22 Oct 2012 08:56 GMT | Politics, Asia, US & Canada, India, United Kingdom
Narendra Modi, the chief minister of the Indian state of Gujarat, has met the UK's high commissioner in India, thus ending a 10-year boycott of the controversial politician.
Ties with Modi by the UK government were ended after religious riots in 2002.
In some of India's worst inter-faith clashes since independence in 1947, about 2,000 people died in a wave of anti-Muslim unrest triggered by a train fire in which 60 Hindu pilgrims were alleged to be burned alive.
Modi was accused of not doing anything to stop the violence, but he has always denied any wrongdoing and has never apologised for the riots.
Modi has been tipped as a potential future prime minister, partly because of his record of turning Gujarat into one of India's economic powerhouses under his Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) government.
The UK has had no official contact with him since the communal riots in Gujarat because of his alleged complicity in the violence against Muslims, which saw hundreds killed by Hindu nationalists.
Earlier this month, Britain's Minister of State of the Foreign Office Hugo Swire had asked Bevan to visit Gujarat and meet Modi to discuss a "wide range of issues of mutual interests", the British foreign office said in a statement.
"I welcome UK government's step for active engagement and strengthening relations with Gujarat. God is Great," Modi had tweeted, reacting to the meeting with James Bevan, the UK Commissioner to India.
The decision by the UK to resume contact with Modi is seen as a cruel blow to the causes of justice for the massacre's victims (which included three British citizens).
"Working policy"
Initially since 2002, Britain had followed a "working policy" of no contact with Modi's government "because of concerns over what happened in Gujarat".
In 2003 Modi was also refused a visa by the US and EU, which had helped to sustain domestic civil society pressure to bring the massacre's perpetrators to justice.
This in turn encouraged the Indian supreme court to intervene by asking the Gujarat government to reopen criminal cases closed for "lack of evidence".
In August,a special court had sentenced former Gujarat minister and former Modi ally Maya Kodnani to 28 years in prison for her role in the riots.
The Congress party, in power nationally, signalled the case would likely feature in its Gujarat election campaign, saying Kodnani's conviction was proof of the BJP's involvement in the riots.
The BJP said the court ruling was proof that the state's criminal justice system was free from bias.
A 2005 federal government inquiry concluded that the train fire had been an accident probably started by people cooking in one of the carriages and was not the result of an attack.
A commission of inquiry set up in 2008 by the Gujarat state government determined that it was the result of a conspiracy.
A 2008 state inquiry exonerated Modi over the riots.

What does Stewardship encompass?
By Debra Lohrere
Rated "G" by the Author.
Discusses the three aspects of Christian stewardship, money mangement, investing and giving.
The Biblical principle of stewardship of our finances encompasses three separate points. Firstly it relates to good money management. We need to be careful not to squander the resources that God gives to us. We should learn good money management techniques, and learn not to be susceptible to impulse buying.
The second aspect of stewardship is related to investing to make the resources that God gives to us grow, so that we can sow more back into the Lords work. In the parable that Jesus told about the three servants who were given gold coins. Two of them invested the money and gave their master more than He had entrusted them with. The third servant went and buried it for safekeeping and the master was angry at that servant for not putting the money He had been entrusted to use.
The third aspect of stewardship is giving. We have been commanded to Give tithes and offerings to the Lord.
We have been instructed us to be good stewards and to use what God gives us wisely.
I believe that God wants to bless his children and to bless them abundantly.
Dont we want the best for our own children? We dont want them to struggle financially and have the pressure of trying to make ends meet.
I am sure that our Father in Heaven is exactly the same. He wants us to put Him first in our lives, and in turn wants to bless us.
God wants us to be financially secure not just so that we dont have to struggle with financial pressures but also because prosperity allows us to bless others more.
When we wisely invest our finances we will have more available to effectively support the missionaries in the field, to finance Christian satellite TV stations and to support the needy in our local community.
A wealthy person has far more power to aide the needy financially than the best-meaning poor person.
I believe God is calling us to embark on the road to financial security so that we can be in the position to fund the resources needed to assist in the great revival.
Some Christians believe that it is wrong to desire wealth, but at the same time they try to give whatever they can. They fail to see that they would be able to give far more generously if they possessed invested what they had and increased their finances.
We need to remember that our finances belong to God. He is our master and we are just the caretakers. We should do our utmost to carefully manage and increase what He has given us, and be open to Hearing from the Holy Spirit to guide us in the direction that He leads us to sow these finances back into.
God is calling us to be proactive with investing. He wants us not only to have faith and believe that He wants to bless us, and to openly and joyfully accept what He wants to give us, but to also seek the wisdom and knowledge that are required both to create and to manage wealth.
With more wealth comes more responsibility. But I believe that as we take care of the little that God has given us, and are faithful in giving as He directs He will Help us learn what we need to know and will Help to point us in the right direction so that we can continue to create more and use it wisely.
He wants us to become wise investors, and to find out as much knowledge as we can to enable us to make wise, well informed decisions.
At school we were taught skills to enable us to leave school and get a job and earn a wage. But we were never taught how to manage our finances or how to build wealth. We were not taught how to invest.
As good stewards, we need to self-educate ourselves about how-to and where-to invest our resources for the most effective growth.

Kindest Cut finally has a home without wheels
The organization has been performing low cost spay/neuter surgeries in partnership with Animal Humane Society since 2011, but always from one of its mobile clinics. Now, with the opening of the Melrose Animal Clinic at AHS's Golden Valley facility in September, that's all changed.

Any animal lover will tell you that the relationship they have with their pet is special – each in their own unique way.
Having a pet can bring numerous benefits to your life. They can give you motivation and help keep you active, make you smile and forget all about a bad day, or provide unconditional love and companionship.
Moving from sunny California to snowy Minnesota may not sound ideal to everyone, but to dozens of Chihuahuas the move has been a lifesaver. It's all thanks to a partnership between Animal Humane Society and a group called Compassion Without Borders.
When the Minnesota Legislature reconvenes in late February 2014, Animal Humane Society and a coalition of animal welfare organizations will be ready to resume the push for a bill to require licensing and inspection of commercial dog and cat breeding operations.
Each year Animal Humane Society investigates hundreds of animal cruelty cases across Minnesota.
On July 16, 2013, an AHS team rescued more than 130 dogs from filthy, inhumane conditions at a northern Minnesota breeding facility.
This is their story.
This rescue operation was supported by a grant from the ASPCA.

If you like RPGs or you like the show, DON'T BUY!
Review written by
Wii Pwnes
Ok, the show is amusing on the Nickelodeon channel, but this game is just horrible. The graphics, are a very weird kind of 3d, and the items are hard to equip.
If you were looking for a "thrilling" adventure, you won't find it here. The game doesn't follow the storyline of the show (which was actually pretty good, but repetitive). Also the sound quality for the remote is just ugly.
If you really want an rpg, then get Zelda Twilight Princess, which has all the elements of a great game. I will tell you what I experienced when I put the game in my Wii: It came up to a menu screen that had nothing to do with the Avatar concept, then when I created a file. It was laggy, showing that in fact it does not run in 60 fps. When I started the game, it came up to a embarrassing-looking 3dish Ang (the avatar) that talked like he was 5. It was embarrassing to even look at the screen, then I went and talked to some random guy that an arrow was pointing to, then he said to go on some mission, ok this is where the game starts off.
Then I learned some moves which was actually pretty cool, but then it got boring. The game then prompted you to start walking, which you then fought some wolves, more wolves, then more wolves. Pretty soon you just totally hate wolves and want to throw your remote at the screen.
I personally think that this game is a put down for the wii, in my mind I think that Nickelodeon should just back off and stop making crappy half-baked games for Nintendo. Note: if you got this game for Christmas, trade it in for games or money.

Steven Schier, the Dorothy H. and Edward C. Congdon Professor of Political Science, was quoted in a lengthy Huffington Post column regarding Republican presidential candidate and current Minnesota U.S. House of Representative member Michelle Bachmann's decision not to release records about her charitable giving history. "It's unusual for a prominent candidate for a major party's presidential nomination to try to prevent serious scrutiny of her/his personal and public life as an adult," he says in the article. "Such resistance merely invites more media scrutiny and will raise questions among contributors and voters about the candidate. It's also a certain loser as a general election strategy after the nomination, when the public wants to get to know a candidate."
Schier Tells Huffington Post That Bachmann's Lack of Info on Charitable Giving "Surprising"

Dr. Annette O. Cozzarelli-Franklin's Ratings
Dr. Annette Cozzarelli has the worst bedside manner I have ever experienced. She is cold and impersonal. Almost felt like she was scolding me when she spoke. I must say she was very thorough and knew her stuff BUT she does not make you feel at home or comfortable so it doesnt even matter. Her staff are rude and will wont even say hello when you get there. They open the window to collect their payment and then you wait. They made me feel extremely uncomfortable and down right HARRASED when they started calling me and sending me up to THREE certified letters telling me I was due for a check-up and that it could be deterimental to my health for me to call them to make an appointment. The last letter actually told me I was not addresssing my health conditions (which as far as I knew didn't have any) and that they would not be responsible if something happened to me. I was in SHOCK and even considered hiring a lawyer. I am sorry but it was horrific experience for me from beginning to the end. I have not had a physical for 2 years now because of this. I was scared off and have just avoided looking for a new one. My best friend had recommended me to her and she too stopped seeing her because of her bully tactics and harrassment tendencies.

Steer clear of this doctor. She is the worst doctor I have ever been to. No bedside manner and she and her staff border on harassment in terms if service. I had such a negative experience that I have not had a physical in 2 years.

I have been going to dr. Cozzarelli for years and I like her. I think she is a great doctor but her staff is one of the worst! They always ignore you for at least 10 minutes if your standing at the window to ask a question. They are rude and very nasty. If you have a problem about a referral or a medical form they don't even want to listen they just give you an attitude and blow you off.

I have several serious medical conditions, and Dr. Cozzarelli is excellent at keeping track of them all and very serious about making sure that I am following instructions and get bloodwork done promptly for checkups, etc. She is also very good at referring to a specialist when necessary. I had been going to doctor after doctor trying to get certain symptoms diagnosed. All the doctors I saw simply pooh-poohed my symptoms and essentially dismissed my concerns as meaningless. Dr. Cozzarelli was the first one to take me seriously, and as a result I learned that I have Type II diabetes, and now have it under control.

Method of preserving fish
Abstract available in
Claims available in
Description (OCR text may contain errors)
METHOD OF PRESERVING FISH, FROGS, AND THE LIKE Filed Dec. 14, 1937 INVENTOR Patented Aug. 15, 1939 E LIKE Frederick John Nevison, The Bank, Barnard Castle, England Application December 14, 1937, Serial No. 179,787 In Great Britain February 12, 1937 2 Claims.
This invention consists in an improved method of preserving fish, frogs, and the like, with a view to providing a lifelike decorative novelty in the form a brooch or a pin, an article of utility such 5 as permanent bait for fishing, or an exhibit for hol is only skin deep, while the resulting product has a dead" appearance.
In one process for preserving beetles the dead or alive beetle was first placed into a solution of alcohol, salicylic acid and sal ammoniac and afterwards allowed to dry. in a cool chamber. In processes for preserving animals, plants and other specimens, the dead specimens were treated with alcohol, then with a solvent for solid hydrocarbons such as parafiins and finally with para'filn wax or its equivalent. In a process for treating insects the wings of the insects were coated with preparations of cellulose.
According to the invention the creature to be preserved is placed alive in alcohol or its equivalent preservative and the carcass afterwards sealed from the atmosphere by applying thereto a tain the preservative inside the carcass.
By placing the creature in the alcohol in accordance with the invention, although death is very quick, there is time for a quantity of alcohol to be taken in by the creature through its breathing apparatus before it expires, so that it becomes impregnated from without and within. By this it will be seen that any preservative which will be drawn in by the creature prior to its expiry, and which will not have any deleteriousefiect onthe 40 carcass may be used. Hence such preservative is intended to be covered by the term alcohol or Withdrawal may be effected by opening the mouth of the fish and inserting a screw-theaded probe, passing this longitudinally into the fish and turning it. .The fish is then packed inside with cotton transparent waterproof cement or covering to rewool or the like or sealing medium such as cellulose cement right up to the mouth and-the mouth sealed with such sealing medium. The scum resulting from the pickling is rubbed off the outside of the fish, after which the fish skin is 6 allowed to dry for about fifteen minutes.
Where brightening of the colours onthe fish is necessary, or where it is desired to make a fish like a minnow represent a. trout, this is effected by applying water colours or other colours not 10 affected by cellulose or like cement, to the desired places.
The fins, tail in the case of fish, and any other projections are then stiffened by applying to them transparent cellulose cement or the like. After 15 these portions have dried, three or four coats of transparent cellulose cement or the like are applied to the whole of the outside of the fish,-pref-' erably by brushing. About twenty minutes to an hour may elapse between the' application of each 20 coating, depending upon the temperatureof the room or workshop in which the operation is being carried out. Finally, the whole fishis dipped in a cellulose cement bath and allowed to dry. This effects a complete sealing of both the inside and the outside of the fish so that the preserving medium remains inside the fish and in its tissues, This sealing is the secret of the successful preservation of the fish. 4
The eyes-are preferably removed and replaced so by imitation eyes which may comprise small opaque white or whitish beads, according to the colour of the white of the natural eye, threaded on black-or other colour-headed pins which are inserted in the eye sockets, the beads forming the 35 whites and the black-or other colour-head of the pin forming the pupils of the eyes. The application of the artificial eyes is effected preferably before the final dipping of the fish in the cellulose cement bath.
The fish is now ready for mounting or any other use to which it is to be put, and the accompanying drawing shows examples of such mounting or other use. i
In the said drawing: v
Fig. 1 is a perspective view of a fish mounted on a bar pin.
Fig, 2 is a side elevation of a fish used as spinner bait.
Fig. '3 is a front endview of Fig. 2.
Fig. 4 is a longitudinal sectional elevation of a fish treated according to the invention.
If the fish is to be used for a brooch the fish may be mounted on a bar pin 2 by applying cellulose cement to one side of its body and thereby securing it to the bar'of the pin as shown in Fig. 1.
If the fish is to be used as bait, when the fish is completely finished it may have spinner fins secured in its front portion, for example by means of cellulose cement, a convenient method of fixing consisting in forming oppositely inclined slots Just behind each shoulder and cementing celluloid fins 3 in the said slots as shown in Figs. 2'
and 3; while the hooks are secured to wire 5 which has been passed through the body of the cavity 1 is packed, while 9 is the cellulose cement with which the mouth is sealed and it the final coating of cellulose cement. For convenience the fish skeleton is omitted.
The invention may be applied in a similar manner to frogs, newts and the like.
The frogs and newts may be mounted by securing their feet to a frame secured to a bar pin either additionally or alternatively to a body mounting.
The invention may be applied to all manner and sizes of creatures, for example full grown fish and reptiles for exhibition in museums.
I claim:
1. The method of preserving fish and reptiles wherein the creature is placed alive in an alcohol preservative and the carcass afterwards sealed from the atmosphere by applying thereto a transparent waterproof cement to retain the preservative inside the carcass.
2. The method according to claim 1 wherein after the creature has been left in the alcohol preservative for a considerable time it is packed inside with cotton wool and the mouth sealed with cellulose cement,

New technology helps Hispanics trace their roots
MIAMI (AP) — Programs such as NBC's "Who Do You Think You Are?" and PBS' "Faces of America" are helping fueling the trend in genealogy. But for many Hispanics, tracing the family tree hasn't been so easy.
Now that's changing for America's largest minority group as a wealth of genealogical data, including a landmark 1930 census in Mexico, is going online. Discovering information about one's great-great grandparents and other relatives could be keystrokes away for many of the nearly 32 million Mexican-Americans — a group long left out of the sleuthing done largely by European-Americans and some African-Americans.
The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, long America's largest aggregator of genealogical records, this year completed its more than three-year-old project to create a searchable digital index of Mexico's massive 1930 census. It has also made the information available to the Internet genealogy company, Ancestry.com....

The initial assessment of New York City's buildings three months after Superstorm Sandy appears positive: Most of the buildings are back online, landlords are investing in repairs to shore up the properties against future storms, and tenants are moving in as a result. But renovations are expensive, and some fear tenants may be waiting for their leases to roll over and then move.

It looks really good, but I don't know if I'll have the money to go, since I'm moving into the big city to go to college
I haven't seen the previews for X-3, but my sis told me about how they showed Jean already. What's up w/ that? Where's the suspense? We all left the theatre after seeing X-2 thinking either "I hope Jean's not REALLY dead!", or "She can't be dead! I don't believe it!"
I don't think that was too smart. Am I wrong??? Doubt it'll change the box office ratings, or anything like that, but I'm sure it dissappointed fans all over.
Treat me like an angel, and I'll be your little devil.
