Richlands soccer players Savanna Stiles and Jax Eddleman plan to sign national letters of intent today to continue playing their sport for NCAA Division II programs.
Eddleman, a goalkeeper, will sign with Chowan in Murfreesboro, while Stiles will sign with North Carolina-Pembroke. Both players said they will receive academic and athletic financial aid.
"I feel great and I am excited," Eddleman said.
Stiles is also excited.
"It's definitely going to be a relief because this is what I've wanted to do, play college soccer," Stiles said. "I finally know where I'm going to go and it's a good feeling."
Eddleman to Hawks
The 17-year-old Eddleman said he wants to be a role model for his eight siblings and former Richlands teammates. He hopes to do just that by taking care of business academically and athletically while playing for the Hawks.
He chose Chowan over Peace College in Raleigh and Daniel Webster College in Nashua, N.H.
"It's a family-oriented, Christian school," Eddleman said. "The team is like a family."
Eddleman last season recorded 6 shutouts and sported a 1.70 goals-against average. He helped the Wildcats to an 11-11-1 record, a 7-5 mark in the East Central 2-A Conference and the second round of the NCHSAA playoffs.
Eddleman will be joining a Chowan program that last year went 2-16 overall.
"I think Jax is a well-rounded person and he will give them a leader and a good work ethic. He wants to be better," Richlands coach Mike Roed said. "He is also a good student. So he will have leadership on and off the field.
"He's very athletic and he reads the game very well. He's quick on his feet and he is able to help younger players, especially in the back."
Eddleman hopes to make an impact right away for the Hawks.
"I'm training now and I am focused on helping Chowan improve their soccer team," he said. "I can bring leadership. I was told that he (head coach Mat Phelps) won't up-front say who will start until a day before a game. It all depends on practice and what impresses him."
Stiles to Braves
A few things intrigued Stiles about Pembroke after also considering Methodist and Meredith.
First, UNCP coach Lars Andersson is known for recruiting Onslow County players.
"The assistant coach at Richlands (Tamara Marshburn) is an alumni from Pembroke and she gave me a few influencing words about how she liked it," the 17-year-old Stiles said. "It was a good experience for her and I hope for the same experience."
The other thing that Stiles liked was UNCP's distance from home.
"I wanted to stay close to home, but not too close," Stiles said. "It is the perfect distance. They also have a good soccer program and a good nursing program, which is what I want to major in."
Richlands coach P.J. McManus said UNCP was a good fit for Stiles, a four-year starter for the Wildcats.
"It's a real good fit for her," McManus said. "There's no doubt in my mind she's got a chance, if she continues her work ethic, to end up being All-American at Pembroke.
"She knows the game and she has no quit in her. She's a player who has been overlooked by this area, but she is one of the best players to come out of here. I think her four years in college will prove that."
Last year Stiles recorded 10 goals and 7 assists while splitting time on the attack and defense. She made The Daily News all-area first team as a defender after helping the Wildcats to a 9-9-2 record, 7-6-1 mark in the
"Savanna is strong on the ball, quick to the ball and she's got a dynamite shot," McManus said. "She's a great assist person and she does exceptionally well making in-line runs to put the ball in the box."
Stiles, who credited her JASA Coastal Surge team for progress, said it doesn't matter what position she plays at UNCP.
"Any opportunity anywhere would be fine with me," she said. "I'm just hoping my skills will help the team."
The Braves went 10-7-3 overall and 5-5-1 in the Peach Belt Conference last year.

Men's Volleyball Falls to #12 Penn State; Hirini Continues Kill Streak
February 8, 2014
UNIVERSITY PARK, P.A. - The 12th-ranked Nittany Lions handed the Pfeiffer men's volleyball team their fifth loss Saturday night, besting the Falcons 3-0 in a non-conference matchup. With the loss Pfeiffer drops to 3-5 overall and Penn State improves to 8-2 on the season.
Sophomore Sonny Hirini led the charge for the Falcons, knocking down ten kills on 21 attempts. Hirini has now put up double-figure kills in every game this season, extending his streak to eight matches. Pfeiffer had a solid assist effort from junior David Specian who put up 27 for the match, and an impressive defensive performance from junior Joe Supko who led all players with four assisted blocks. The Falcons bested the Nittany Lions in the team block category putting up seven and a half blocks to Penn State's four.
Penn State took the match by scores of 25-18, 25-20, and 25-19. Aaron Russell led all players with 17 kills and was closely followed by his teammate Nick Goodell who knocked down 15 kills of his own.
Pfeiffer returns home on February 11th when they take on conference foe Mount Olive at 7:00 p.m.

After years of lackluster results, the Combined Federal Campaign may be getting a makeover. The Office of Personnel Management has proposed nationwide changes to the workplace fundraiser. And in our area, the CFC of the National Capitol Area has fired its administrator. Out with the nonprofit Global Impact, amid allegations of mismanagement, and in with a new manager: EarthShare.
chairman of the Labor and Employee Practice Group
Tully Rinckey
Recently, the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission ordered the Social Security Administration to pay millions of dollars in back pay to black male employees. The ruling stems from a 15-year-old class-action discrimination lawsuit. Lawyers for the men say a follow-up investigation found Social Security had violated terms of that suit. Employment Lawyer John Mahoney joins us now with some analysis in our Legal Loop segment. He's chairman of the labor and employment practice group at the law firm Tully Rinckey.
Deloitte's Defense Department practice
Like two ends of a see-saw, the commercial and military aerospace markets never seem to up or down at the same time. Right now, the military side is headed down. Deloitte has just completed a study of the aerospace market.
director of natural resources and environment issues
Government Accountability Office
It's been 40 years since Congress passed the law establishing Alaska Native Corporations to help indigenous Alaskans rise out of poverty. ANCs are doing quite well, thanks in part to preference they enjoy for federal contracts. They took in more than $8 billion in 2010. But members of Congress worry about the financial transparency of ANCs because they operate under different rules. The Government Accountability Office took a new look at ANCs.
chief of transportation
Office of the Assistant Chief of Staff for Installation Management, Army
The Army has cut 8,000 vehicles since its peak in 2009. That includes cars, tractors, ambulances and other non-combat vehicles. In addition, it reached its goal for alternative energy vehicles eight years early. Edward Moscatelli, chief of transportation in the Office of the Assistant Chief of Staff for Installation Management, says there are 5,000 more vehicles that can be cut.
DoD Report
- Navy Secretary Ray Mabus is asking his department to make tough budget choices no matter what happens on Capitol Hill. His new memo echoes recent warnings from the Pentagon and the Air Force. Mabus says if Congress extends the current continuing resolution another six months, then the Navy and Marine Corps would have a $4 billion shortfall in their operating accounts. He says the department may layoff temporary employees who aren't mission-critical and won't hire more civilians. In addition, it may trim administrative support contracts, travel, IT, spending and construction. He says the department will follow Pentagon guidance on furloughs. (Navy)

There are so many of these places opening in Paris that it's making my head spin, in a good way. Way back when, in 2008, when I did a post on where to get good coffee in Paris, there were just a handful of places listed. Now I can't keep up! So along comes a little place, Tuck Shop, located in the 10th, a slip of a joint where a former café used to be that rented sewing machines for use, on-site, by the hour.
I can't sew, nor can I knit. But believe it or not, I can spin – and I can eat and drink coffee, too. So there I found myself at Tuck Shop, one of the newest of the coffee places that are brewing and extracting cups in Paris that people are crisscrossing the city to sip.

Louise Ganus (left), Harding first lady from 1965-1987, and Leah Burks, Harding first lady from 1987-2013, display the preliminary plan for the Harding First Ladies Garden, which will be located on campus on the north side of Park Avenue across from Keller dorm.
April 26, 2013
Associated Women for Harding honor Harding University first lady
At their annual National Council Luncheon, Associated Women for Harding, a University organization that provides need-based scholarships for students, honored Leah Burks, wife of University President David B. Burks who will retire from the presidency June 1.
Following a tribute slideshow, a new AWH scholarship named in honor of Leah Burks was announced as part of AWH's Power of 10 Challenge, an effort begun by 10 members with a goal to raise $10,000 in 10 months.
In addition, AWH announced plans to construct a garden to recognize past, present and future first ladies of Harding and celebrate and honor the role they play during their husbands' presidencies. The garden, which will feature a fountain, colonnades and greenery, will be located across from Keller dorm on the north side of Park Avenue.
"It will be a great addition to Harding's campus, and it will connect the front part of the campus to the expansions occurring across Park Avenue," said Liz Howell, assistant to the president for parent and alumni relations. "It will also provide a peaceful area for people to enjoy that also honors the first ladies of Harding."

At a Glance
Why Get Tested?
To detect a problem with the body's fluid and electrolyte balance
When to Get Tested?
As part of routine health screening, when your doctor suspects that you have an excess or deficit of one of the electrolytes (usually sodium or potassium), or if your doctor suspects an acid-base imbalance
Sample Required?
A blood sample drawn from a vein in the arm
Test Preparation Needed?
The Test Sample
What is being tested?
Electrolytes are electrically charged minerals that are found in body tissues and blood in the form of dissolved salts. They help move nutrients into and wastes out of the body's cells, maintain a healthy water balance, and help stabilize the body's pH level. The electrolyte panel measures the main electrolytes in the body: sodium (Na+), potassium (K+), chloride (Cl-), and bicarbonate (HCO3-; sometimes reported as total CO2).
Most sodium is found in the plasma, outside of the body's cells, where it helps to regulate the amount of water in the body. Potassium is found primarily inside the body's cells. A small but vital amount of potassium is found in the plasma, the liquid portion of the blood. Monitoring potassium is important. Small changes in the plasma K+ level can affect the heart's rhythm and ability to contract. Chloride travels in and out of the cells to help maintain electrical neutrality, and its level usually mirrors that of sodium. The primary role of bicarbonate (or total CO2, an estimate of bicarbonate), which is excreted and reabsorbed by the kidneys, is to help maintain a stable pH level (acid-base balance) and, secondarily, to help maintain electrical neutrality.
A person's diet provides sodium, potassium, and chloride; the kidneys excrete them. The lungs provide oxygen and regulate CO2, which is in balance with bicarbonate. The balance of these chemicals is an indication of the functional well-being of several basic body functions, including those performed by the kidneys and heart.
The electrolyte panel is composed of the individual tests for sodium, potassium, chloride, and bicarbonate (or total CO2). A related "test" is the anion gap, which is a value calculated using the results of an electrolyte panel. It reflects the difference between the positively charged ions (called cations) and the negatively charged ions (called anions). The occurrence of an abnormal anion gap reflects an unusual presence of some kind of charged particle in the blood. It is non-specific but can be affected by metabolic by-products from conditions such as starvation or diabetes or the presence of a toxic substance, such as oxalate, glycolate, or aspirin. For more information on anion gap, see Common Questions #1.
How is the sample collected for testing?
A blood sample is drawn by needle from a vein in the arm.
NOTE: If undergoing medical tests makes you or someone you care for anxious, embarrassed, or even difficult to manage, you might consider reading one or more of the following articles: Coping with Test Pain, Discomfort, and Anxiety, Tips on Blood Testing, Tips to Help Children through Their Medical Tests, and Tips to Help the Elderly through Their Medical Tests.
Another article, Follow That Sample, provides a glimpse at the collection and processing of a blood sample and throat culture.
Is any test preparation needed to ensure the quality of the sample?
No test preparation is needed.

Common Questions
Ask a Laboratory Scientist
Form temporarily unavailable
Due to a dramatic increase in the number of questions submitted to the volunteer laboratory scientists who respond to our users, we have had to limit the number of questions that can be submitted each day. Unfortunately, we have reached that limit today and are unable to accept your inquiry now. We understand that your questions are vital to your health and peace of mind, and recommend instead that you speak with your doctor or another healthcare professional. We apologize for this inconvenience.
This was not an easy step for us to take, as the volunteers on the response team are dedicated to the work they do and are often inspired by the help they can provide. We are actively seeking to expand our capability so that we can again accept and answer all user questions. We will accept and respond to the same limited number of questions tomorrow, but expect to resume the service, 24/7, as soon as possible.

People of all races and ideologies gathered at Kafer Park in New Bern Monday evening during "Moral Monday" with one common passion: outrage over politics and policies coming out of Raleigh.
The Rev. William Barber, president of the North Carolina NAACP, said Moral Mondays, which started in Raleigh this summer to protest actions of the Republican-controlled General Assembly and resulted in about 940 people being arrested for civil disobedience, were making a difference and making politicians in Raleigh nervous.
About 200 people attended Monday's New Bern rally, shouting slogans such as: "We will win," and "Stand up and fight back." Some carried signs that stated: "Make America land of the free and the healthy," "Don't frack North Carolina," and "Hitler was also a right winger…Don't repeat history."
"This is what some of them are afraid of," Barber said. "They'd rather we be divided."
But thousands of people of all races, faiths and economic and social backgrounds are coming together in North Carolina to make themselves heard, Barber said.
"We have gathered to raise the moral outrage," he said.
The 940 people arrested at Moral Monday events in Raleigh refused to give up their constitutional rights, Barber said.
The power of the movement is the people, he said, not any one organization like the NAACP.
"The movement is far from over," Barber said
It's not about hatred of government, but instead is about love, faith and character, he said.
"What we don't like is extreme policies bullied through legislation," Barber said. "…We don't care about Democrats or Republicans. What we care about is — are you going to do right by the people in the state?. …We will not bow down to puny, temporary political powers."
Besides Barber, there were nine speakers at Monday's event, talking about everything from moral responsibility, health care, voting rights, women's health, the environment, women's rights, poverty and labor issues.
Marshall Williams, Craven County NAACP president, said the Moral Monday rally was to motivate people "Down East," an area often overlooked.
"The rally sets the word on regressive policies in government," Williams said. "The policies of the past are starting to affect people."
Some of those policies included reductions in unemployment benefits, cuts in education and refusal to expand health care coverage to the poor, Williams said.
If the state government had expanded Medicaid under the Obama plan, it would have saved lives, he said.
"We just hope to enlighten the people," Williams said.
The Moral Monday rallies have the support of about 150 organizations, from labor and education supporters to health advocates and environmental groups, he said.
The rallies started in Raleigh, but are spreading to Georgia and Florida. One has been held in New York, he said.
Michael McLean Sr. of Knightdale was at the rally in his orange sweatshirt proclaiming he was arrested during the third Moral Monday rally in Raleigh for civil disobedience. He was in jail for about 6 hours before attorneys with the NAACP bailed him out, and now he attends all the Moral Monday rallies he can, he said.
"As a black male, I was aware of the issues and what was not right," McLean said. "But this is unique for New Bern. There is such a diverse coming together."
He said he hoped the movement would educate people on what is taking place in Raleigh and the "regressive policies that are hurting people."
"North Carolina is known as a progressive state," he said. "But in the past few years, it has turned 180 degrees the other way."
Donna Shelton, a physician's assistant, told the crowd the government has turned away from health care issues.
"It is hideous," she said. "People are dying without health insurance."
About 45,000 people a year die in the United States without health insurance, Shelton said.
"What would the government do if they were dying because of terrorists?" she said. "They would be all over that. Health care should be a human right. Health care is not just for people who have money."
Thelma Curry of New Bern said she came to the rally to see if there was anything she could do to help change some of the things state legislators are doing with unemployment benefits, educational cuts and health care.
"I'm one of the people health care will affect," Curry said. "If I don't get it, I will be in trouble. I think by bringing attention to it that's good."
New Bern Alderman Victor Taylor was also at the rally, along with Alderman Bernard White and Alderman Dana Outlaw, who is running for mayor.
"I think this was very much needed," Taylor said of the rally. "Moral Mondays will make the state stronger."
Omisade Burnery-Scott, spoke on voting rights, calling North Carolina's new voting law, which, among other things, requires voters to show photo identification, is the "monster law" that has re-enacted the Jim Crow-era law.
"It's meant to keep you from voting," she said. "We will not allow that."

What if I get sick? What if the weather is horrible? What if I get hurt? What if something happens to the house while I'm gone? What if, what if? Questions like these constantly rattle the brain of any traveler, yet with travel insurance worries like these can safely be put out of mind.
The right policy can save the day when it seems as if everything is going down the tubes by providing protection in the case of almost any emergency. As an extreme example, some plans will allow for insured travelers to return home if disaster strikes at home while they are away.
But who wants to be constantly checking the news and calling home to make sure everything is the way you left it?
Severe weather
In the wake of Hurricanes Katrina and Rita and the disaster they wreaked on the gulf coast, it is important for people to know and understand what kind of protection is available to them in such situations so that if these situations come up, they can be prepared. When a storm is approaching there are many ways a traveler can rely on insurance, beginning with the early stages of the storm and following through afterward. So what happens when the weather changes your plans?
Under most plans, claims can be made if the weather results in a cancelled flight to or from the affected area. Additionally, in the event of mandatory evacuation, claims can be filed if you have to leave your vacation destination for a few days or if you become stranded by the storm and have to stay longer than expected.
For those concerned about the more extreme possibilities, in the unlikely event that your home is rendered uninhabitable by the severe weather conditions, many plans provide coverage.
However, there are some restrictions on when you can apply for a policy. A "named event" clause is an important part of any policy of which to be aware.
Other coverage
Travel insurance covers more than weather events. All emergencies and unforeseen events can be covered by a proper plan, giving you the piece of mind you need to truly relax and enjoy your vacation.
Travelers can claim reimbursement if their trip is cancelled or cut short for anything from sudden unemployment to death or illness. Even events like terrorism, airline strikes or house fires are covered by most plans.
Even small inconveniences can be covered. If your travel arrangements are delayed, claims can be filled to cover additional hotel stays, clothing costs or even the cost of catching up with a cruise if you miss its embarkation. Baggage loss can also be covered; and not just loss by the airline.
Some insurers also reimburse you for hotels and meals when a flight is postpones or cancelled. Airlines sometimes cover these expenses, but in many cases travelers are oblilged to cover them out of their own pocket.
Medical issues are also thoroughly covered, and a traveler can be reimbursed for cost of medical treatment received during a trip as well as emergency dental treatments that may be necessary. Additional coverage may also provide for the cost of being transported from your destination to a local hospital.
Where to look
Worldnomads.com offers a wide range of policy options specially tailored to those who pursue alternative travel destinations and experience. Thus they are a perfect fit for most GoNOMAD readers.
Based in Sydney, Australia, WorldNomad.com offers policies that avoid expensive and unnecessary add-ons, making them an inexpensive option for travel insurance.
GoNOMAD has also partnered with TripInsurance.com and AIG, the world's largest insurance company to ensure that our readers can find a travel insurance package that's right for them.

2/10/14 Eastwood Saves a Life
Find me on Facebook: Jake Emily Poyet Webb
Monday, February 10, 2014
Video of JUSTIN BIEBER being searched after he was arrested in Miami last month hit the web over the weekend. And Justin's lawyers don't want any more of it released. They told a judge there's video that shows, quote, "intimate personal parts" of Justin's body. And speaking of Justin's arrest, TMZ got a hold of the GPS records for his rented Lamborghini, and he was hitting speeds of up to 136 miles per hour in the hours before his arrest.
WOODY ALLEN responded this weekend to the allegations that he molested his daughter. He accuses MIA FARROW of making the whole thing up to get him back for having an affair with her adopted daughter SOON-YI PREVIN. He also says this is the last time he or anyone who represents him will talk about it.
CLINT EASTWOOD saved a man's life last week, when the dude started choking on a piece of CHEESE at a golf event in California. Clint performed the Heimlich maneuver . . . for the first time EVER . . . and added, quote, "I looked in his eyes and saw that look of panic people have when they see their life passing before their eyes. It looked bad." The man who he saved said, quote, "I can't believe I'm 202 pounds and he threw me up in the air three times." He also said that this was the SECOND time in his life that someone had to perform the Heimlich on him.
Bruce Jenner's sons say he's going through an identity crisis. There have been rumors that Bruce is going through a sex change and has been spotted out with long hair and fingernails. Brandon and Brody Jenner admit their dad is definitely having a moment….an identity crisis. Sources say while the boys haven't come out and asked their dad if he is transitioning to becoming a woman, it has definitely crossed their minds.
2/7/14 Charlie Threatens Ashton
Find me on Facebook: Jake Emily Poyet Webb
Friday, February 7, 2014
For OPRAH WINFREY, the best thing about being 60 is that she can finally CHILL. She says, quote, "You are through with the bull[crap] . . . You are chilled, and you have nothing to prove, and you can sit above that perch with a sense of knowing that you are who you want to be, inside and out, and it's good. Life is good."
This week, ASHTON KUTCHER called out CHARLIE SHEEN for slamming the work he's doing on "Two and a Half Men". Now, Charlie is apologizing to Ashton . . . but he's also THREATENING him, saying that if Ashton ever calls him out again he'll "put him on a hospital food diet for a year."
In a "60 Minutes" interview from 1992, WOODY ALLEN showed a Valentine he received from MIA FARROW. It was a picture of Mia and her kids, with metal skewers and a steak knife stabbed through it. He also said she frequently threatened to kill him and cut out his eyes.
LEONARDO DICAPRIO has been in Hollywood for well over 20 years . . . but he's never once done drugs. He says, quote, "Never done it. That's because I saw this stuff literally every day [in my neighborhood] when I was three or four years old. So Hollywood was a walk in the park for me."
This week, SELENA GOMEZ'S rep confirmed that Selena spent two weeks in rehab last month . . . but said it was NOT for substance abuse. Now, TMZ is claiming it was a six-week program . . . but that Selena BAILED after two weeks, against the advice of "medical professionals." They claim she was there because she has issues with alcohol, pot and the prescription drug Ambien.
1/6/14 Selena Gomez Rehab

MILEY CYRUS has finally gone totally topless. If the image that popped up on the web yesterday is legit . . . and it seems to be. It's a black-and-white outtake from her recent "W" magazine shoot, and she's lying on a bed with her breasts fully exposed.
When DAVID BECKHAM runs around in his skivvies, we all win. Am I right, ladies? Well, maybe not. Because David is being accused of STUFFING HIS DRAWERS in that H&M underwear ad he did for the Super Bowl. A supposed "stylist" who worked on the commercial says, quote, "David is definitely 'enhanced' for [the ad]. In order to make the bulge look so pronounced in the photos, his underwear has to be carefully stuffed and padded to create the illusion." But Beckham's rep says, quote, "It's all natural."
Yet another former child star has hit a rough patch. SELENA GOMEZ spent two weeks in rehab last month. Her rep says she went voluntarily, but "not for substance abuse." There's no word what she DID go for . . . but there's talk that JUSTIN BIEBER was a bad influence, and that she was, quote, "partying very hard" with alcohol and prescription drugs.
A new report claims that JUSTIN BIEBER was, quote, "extremely abusive" to the crew of a private plane on Friday . . . just ONE DAY before he was supposedly looking for a pool in New York City to have himself baptized in. This time, it isn't tabloid silliness . . . there's an actual POLICE REPORT. It says the captain warned Justin and his friends on "several occasions to stop smoking marijuana." Apparently, it got so bad that the pilots had to wear OXYGEN MASKS to avoid getting high off the smoke in the air. The captain ALSO had to warn Justin's group to, quote, "stop their harassing behavior toward the flight attendant." The woman told authorities that Justin and his father were, quote, "extremely abusive verbally." Yup, Justin's cool dad Jeremy Bieber was one of the partiers on the plane. To be clear, the "abuse" was not physical or sexual in nature, and the crew is not pressing charges against Justin. However, the flight attendant says she will NEVER work another flight with Justin and / or his dad.
2/5/14 Paul Walker's Wishes

Wednesday, February 5, 2014
A "source" tells Radar Online that JUSTIN BIEBER bragged to a friend about being SELENA GOMEZ'S "FIRST." Justin supposedly said, quote, "I knew she was in love with me when she gave me her virginity." The friend says it happened in the summer of 2011, when Justin and Selena made plans to go to Palm Springs SPECIFICALLY to do the nasty. The friend adds, quote, "The purpose of the trip was 100% because Selena finally said 'yes' to having sex with him. They agreed [to do it] because they both said they were in love."
The "New York Post" says JUSTIN BIEBER was looking for a place in Manhattan with a private pool on Saturday . . . because he wanted to get BAPTIZED. A source says, quote, "Justin is serious about his Christian faith, and after recent events, he needed to take a pause." Another source adds, quote, "Justin and his team [wanted to] conduct a baptism for him, a cleansing ritual, with the Hillsong Church, but they couldn't find a place in time."
New York City police arrested four people as part of their investigation into the overdose of PHILIP SEYMOUR HOFFMAN. They'd gotten a warrant to search three apartments in a building in New York's Chinatown. Sources say they were tipped off by someone who bought heroin from the same dealer Hoffman did.
PAUL WALKER left his entire $25 million estate to his 15-year-old daughter Meadow. But some of the other conditions of his will might cause problems among those he left behind. Meadow lived with her mother, Rebecca Soteros, for the first 13 years of her life. She'd been living with Paul since 2011, but went back with Rebecca after Paul died. But Paul's will states that he wants his own mother to be Meadow's guardian, and he wants his father to control the estate. It's not clear if Rebecca is cool with this.
1/4/13 Latest on Philip Seymour Hoffman
Find me on Facebook: Jake Emily Poyet Webb
Tuesday, February 4, 2014
There may have been as many as 50 to 70 bags of heroin in PHILIP SEYMOUR HOFFMAN'S apartment when he died Sunday, as well as 20 used hypodermic needles, a charred spoon and prescription meds. A source says he was also hooked on Oxycontin. Police think there might be video of him buying drugs from two men on Saturday night.
The Super Bowl averaged 111.5 million viewers . . . once again setting a new, all-time TV ratings record. The previous record was 111.3 million, which Super Bowl 46 set in 2012. BRUNO MARS also scored a record high for Super Bowl halftime shows, with an average of 115.3 million viewers.
A plastic surgeon in Santa Monica says the most sought-after celebrity look is JENNIFER ANISTON for women and HUGH JACKMAN for men. Also, "in demand" body parts include: BEYONCÉ'S butt, KATY PERRY'S skin and ROBERT PATTINSON'S jawline.
If you think life is even the slightest bit fair, allow me to insert a pin into your bright pink balloon. On Sunday night, PARIS HILTON had a DJ gig at a Super Bowl after-party in Atlantic City. The job paid $100,000. After it was over, she hit a blackjack table . . . where she won another $50,000. And she posted a picture of her winnings, just to TAUNT YOU.
There might be video of JUSTIN BIEBER and his friends fooling around with dancers at a strip club in Australia when he was on tour there last year. It's nothing TOO scandalous. Supposedly, surveillance video caught Justin spanking some butts and pulling off girls' panties with his teeth. It's being shopped to various media outlets.

Discover Miss Dior
True luxury requires authentic raw materials and true craftsmanship...
12 February 1947. In his salons at 30, avenue Montaigne, Christian Dior presented his very first collection. His sensual creations celebrated triumphant femininity: it was the beginning of a veritable revolution, dubbed the New Look. To accompany these avant-garde silhouettes, the couturier asked perfumer Paul Vacher to create a modern and sophisticated fragrance: "Make me a perfume that smells of love", he asked. An elegant green chypre, Miss Dior was to become the perfume of the New Look. Today it lends its name to the Miss Dior bag. Directly inspired by the world of Dior fragrances and haute couture, Miss Dior is the accessory of free and modern femininity, able to break free of fashion codes.
Miss Dior is assembled entirely by hand by Dior's craftsmen according to the purest of leather-crafting traditions. Mounted on a mould, each leather piece is stitched in order to fit the structured silhouette of Miss Dior perfectly. As elegant as it is practical, Miss Dior is crafted with infinite meticulousness, even on the inside: its smooth leather lining with cannage stitching proclaims its modernity through an elegant combination of contrasting colours. On the outside the cannage, Dior's signature motif, is created using a pillar machine: every dot and thread are carefully positioned in order to obtain this unique faceted surface with its luxuriously supple feel.
A true fashion icon, the Miss Dior bag proclaims its incomparable elegance right down to the smallest details. A key, kept in its leather pouch, allows Miss Dior to be locked and its contents kept secret. Discreetly hanging from the chain, charms capture the gaze, appearing to dance delicately when the bag moves. The Miss Dior chain with its dense, soft links is pleasant to handle and comes in two lengths, short or long, allowing it to be worn in a multitude of manners. Miss Dior is thus the perfect bag for every occasion: simultaneously modern and retro, free and casual, it is the signature of a free personality that has fun with fashion.

GARETH DUNCAN watched Paarl Boys' hold on for a 22-17 win over Paul Roos in Stellenbosch.
Both teams were confident of securing victory on Paul Roos's Markotter Fields. Heading into this clash, Paarl Boys' had won 10 of their 11 fixtures this year, while Paul Roos were enjoying a three-match winning streak.
But it was Boishaai who emerged as the winners as they never relinquished the lead throughout the match. The visitors scored three tries in the first half to hold a 17-10 advantage at the break. Paul Roos narrowed the deficit in the second half and had favourable field position at the death. But the hosts fell short as the final whistle blew to reward a strong and resilient Boishaai defence.
Man of the Match and fullback Darian Hock starred for the victors as he grabbed a brace, while wing Tiaan Mouton and outside centre Dewald Naude also crossed the chalk.
Paul Roos fullback Jason Worral, who will feature for the WP U18 Craven Week side in July, scored 12 of his team's points via a try, a conversion and a penalty.

Saint Paul is the capital and second-most populous city of the U.S. state of Minnesota. The city lies mostly on the north bank of the Mississippi River, downstream of the river's confluence with the Minnesota River, and adjoins Minneapolis, the state's largest city.
Founded near historic Native American settlements as a trading and transportation center, the city rose to prominence when it was named the capital of the Minnesota Territory in 1849. Though Minneapolis is more nationally recognized, Saint Paul contains important institutions and the state's political activity. Regionally, the city is popular for the Xcel Energy Center, home of the Minnesota Wild, and for the Science Museum of Minnesota. As a business hub of the Upper Midwest, it is headquarters for companies such as Ecolab and Lawson Software.

In addition, Chandler voted for the stimulus bill.[7] 57% of U.S. voters believe that the stimulus has either hurt the economy (36%) or had no impact (21%). 38% believe the stimulus helped the economy.[8]
Chandler also voted in favor of the "Cash for Clunkers" bill.[9] According to a June 2009 Rasmussen Reports poll, 54% of likely U.S. voters opposed Cash for Clunkers, while 35% supported it.[10]
Finally, Chandler supported the "Cap and Trade" bill.[11] Just after the bill's passage, 42% of likely U.S. voters said that cap and trade would hurt the economy, while 19% believed it would help. 15% said that the bill would have no impact.[12]

Chandler voted for the fiscal cliff compromise bill, which made permanent most of the Bush tax cuts originally passed in 2001 and 2003 while also raising tax rates on the highest income levels. He was one of 172 Democrats who voted in favor of the bill. The bill was passed in the House by a 257 - 167 vote on January 1, 2013.[13]

Campaign issues
- Arts and Humanities
Excerpt: "I strongly support the mission of public television and radio programs. As the power of private broadcasting corporations continues to grow, I believe that Congress must work to ensure that Americans have access to independent public media outlets free from political and corporate influence."[20]
- Economy Jobs and Small Business
Excerpt: "As the economy continues to slowly recover from the recession, Congress should make every effort to ensure that the federal government is not impeding the recovery in any way."[21]
- Education
Excerpt: "One of my top priorities is to enact legislation that will improve the No Child Left Behind Act. This law was enacted in 2001 to strengthen academic programs for elementary and secondary schools, yet federal funding shortages have left many school districts in Kentucky and throughout the United States struggling to meet the law's requirements."[22]
- Foreign Policy
Excerpt: "While we have substantially drawn down forces in Iraq, the security environment in Afghanistan requires enhanced steps. With the successful mission of our Navy SEALS in the killing of Osama bin Laden, I believe that we must reevaluate our mission in Afghanistan and work to bring our troops home."[23]
- Healthcare
Excerpt: "In 2010, when the House of Representatives considered the Patient Protection and Affordable Healthcare Act, I voted against the bill because I believed that the legislation did not fully address the needs of the people of the Sixth District of Kentucky."[24]
- Immigration
Excerpt: "Not only do I think we need to fix the dangerous loopholes in our immigration system, but I am also opposed to giving blanket amnesty to all undocumented immigrants inside our borders."[25]
