National Spelling Bee
The National Spelling Bee was launched by the Louisville, Kentucky, Courier-Journal in 1925. With competitions, cash prizes, and a trip to the nation's capital, it was hoped the Bee would stimulate "general interest among pupils in a dull subject." The Scripps Howard News Service took over the Bee in 1941. Over the years the national finals have grown from a mere 9 contestants to 281. In 2014, there were two winners of the bee—a conclusion that has only happened three other times in Bee history, and not since 1962. Sriram Hathwar, a 14-year-old from Painted Post, N.Y. and Ansun Sujoe, a 13-year-old from Forth Worth, Tex. shared the spotlight as co-champions after 22 rounds of spelling. After exhausting the entire bank of spelling challenges, each took home over $30,000 in cash, scholarships and bonds, among other prizes, for correctly spelling "stichomythia" and "feuilleton," respectively. Here are the winning words that made past spellers into national champions.

This is Why Everything Will Be OK
Determined to pull myself out of my gloomy mood, I marched along through the night, a bogus smiled plastered across my face...
...completely oblivious of the shovel in my path.
Yeah, right in the crotch.
I wasn't aware stuff like that happened in real life without the involvement of Bob Saget and a live studio audience, but apparently the world is full of shovels just lying in wait for an unassuming groin to brutally attack. Nobody is safe. Nobody.
I hobbled home, tears welling up in my eyes, loins throbbing with pain, and spent the rest of the night with a bag of frozen vegetables on my lap.
In the morning, things hadn't improved. As a matter of fact, they'd gotten worse. Upon awaking I was horrified to discover that one of the ol' family jewels had swelled to an alarming size after taking the brunt of the evil shovel's assault. Now, it's always been my intention to keep this blog family friendly (well, sort of) so I hope this visual allusion will suffice in lieu of an actual drawing of my damaged genitals:
I imagine this would have been the final straw, sending me into a month-long misery spiral of Cool Ranch Doritos and Fiona Apple music, if not for my infallible optimism––an optimism which is tied solely to a story my friend told me once, a story she divulged in utter confidence. A story recited in hushed verse, so sorrowful it seemed to take on the delicate beauty of prayer. A story I promised never to tell.
Until now.
(Did I mention I'm a terrible confidante?)
My friend––let's call her Jessica, to protect her identity––was fast asleep one night next to her boyfriend, dreaming peacefully of horses or Jimmy Choos or whatever it is girls dream about, not a care in her pretty little head...
...when suddenly, she awoke, blood running cold as ice.
She had shit her pants in her sleep.
Now, I've spent many hours trying to imagine what must run through your head upon realizing that you've literally shit the bed. I reckon it's a fear you can never recover from. Marie Curie once said "Nothing in life is to be feared." Marie Curie obviously never shit her fucking panties in her sleep.
Luckily, my friend was indeed wearing underwear, and everything was mercifully contained. With her boyfriend sleeping soundly, she leapt into action.
Flinging herself from the bed, she bolted to the bathroom where she hurriedly disposed of her undergarments and cleaned herself off.
I can only imagine what she must have felt then, huddled in a ball on the shower floor, knowing that no matter how long she let the scalding water wash over her, she'd never truly be clean again.
Jessica's is the voice that drifts through my head whenever my life is looking grim. There are times when my checking account is overdrawn, or when I screw up files at work, or when I'm afraid someone might finally discover the body of that hooker I buried in Washington Park, but I always stop and remind myself that things could be worse. Perhaps I have a limited scope of the world if the worst thing I can imagine is sleep-pooping, but it's what works for me. It's my way of telling myself that everything will be OK.

One night, my wife, who was sick at the time, woke me up in the middle of the night to tell me we needed to move to the pullout bed in the living. Turns out she had a similar incident, sans underwear.ReplyDelete
You don't think about that kinda thing while making your vows, you know?
My buddy (religion major and atheist) decided to go to church one Easter Sunday for observation purposes. He woke up early, dressed nice, and headed out to his car. When he got to his vehicle, he noticed the driver side and adjacent back doors ajar. When he opened the door, he was first hit by the smell. Of shit. In a pile. On the driver's seat. Upon further investigation, it wasn't only in the driver's seat. In fact, it *ended* in the drivers seat, only after this person (or animal, or living statue) entered the car from the back seat, shitting, climbed across the back seat and over-top his favorite baseball cap and a book, shitting, up and OVER the driver's seat, shitting, and relieving the rest into a pile on the driver's seat. Apparently, my buddy's car was not the only one vandalized by shit that evening.ReplyDelete
So whenever I have a bad day or something equivalent, I just remember "At least nobody shit in my car."
Have an excellent day! And keep writing... I love your stories.

oh. my. god. this made my day. i had a best friend that shit so furiously/ violently one time that she literally shot her tampon out of her vajayjay into the toilet in the process. picture that one. ewww.ReplyDelete
I have an "it could be worse" story that gets me through bad days... however, it has to do with where and how I started my first period. Ever. As an adolescent girl. Not pretty- don't think the world is ready for that story yet.ReplyDelete
I can't lie.... I laughed for a good five minutes just at the expression of poor "Jessica" in the shower.ReplyDelete
That being said, it doesn't take much to make me laugh for five minutes.
Oh shit! that was YOUR dead hooker in Washington Park? Oh my bad man, I'm sorry, I'll put her back.ReplyDelete
Also, excellent slam on Jersey Shore, much appreciated!
First, your blog the is bomb, kid.ReplyDelete
Second, you reminded me that I once pissed myself-- in church-- at age twelve.
I nodded off during the sermon, then awakened to the noise of my river of urine rushing off the faux leather seats, flowing towards the front of the church.
It was literally a stream... I saw Baby Moses floating by in a basket.
My grandmother was sitting next to me, trying to hand me tissues from a little ditzy ten-pack.
That'll teach me to take communion.
Dude, I just found your blog through Stumble Upon and read all of 2010 in one sitting. You are awesome. This one right here made me literally laugh myself to tears. I sent it to my friends.ReplyDelete

Yeah. A similar thing happened to my step-dad while he was sick. And if it'll help your friend feel any better, it was diarrhea and my parents had a memory-foam mattress which is apparently pretty absorbent. And to make it worse, it was my mother who woke up first.ReplyDelete

I was at my step-mother's funeral, and they were going to stick the coffin into one of those wall vaults.ReplyDelete
The hole was covered by a heavy velvet curtain. And I just had to have a look you know? Usually you don't get to see one of those while you're still alive.
So I moved the curtain ever so slightly.... and who knew? It was held up by a pole that had the most feeble spring ever invented by man, which over time had gotten even more feeble.
The curtain fell to the ground with a WHUMP. Leaving this gaping concrete hole.
and a WHOLE LOT of PISSED OFF relatives had to file by this thing, cuz I couldn't get it back on.
The funeral directors were grim looking, but secretly were enjoying themselves as this is the most entertainment they can possibly get.
By the way, there's a paradise of unicorns and rainbows in that vault they don't tell you about.

RYAN VREDE analyses the key match-ups and picks the winner in Saturday's Test.
Nothing that happened at Newlands was a surprise – not even the fact that the Springboks were patchy on attack and failed to bag the bonus-point. I don't think that is going to be as decisive in the final analysis. That school of thought assumes that the Springboks will be close to New Zealand points-wise going into the final Test of the tournament in Soweto. This won't be the case. The Blacks will already have bagged the title by then.
The Pumas will undoubtedly be buoyed by passionate home support and you can expect a reasonably strong challenge from their forwards. Their heavies would, however, have to make an exponential improvement in this facet of play to stand a chance of victory. That level of improvement is beyond them in a seven-day turnaround. One can also reasonably confidently assume the Springboks' forwards would have made gains towards greater synergy.
Defence will be the root of their success, with their dominance there in general play ensuring consistently poor ball for a backline shorn of their most potent attacking weapon, Juan Martin Hernandez. Furthermore, the Springboks defied expectations that they would struggle at the set pieces and I don't believe the Pumas will improve markedly in this regard. Halting the rolling maul will be a priority and much of this responsibility rests with Andries Bekker, whose reading of the defensive lineouts made the Pumas' hookers resemble tanked-up darts players at times last week.
On attack, the inclusion of Jacques Potgieter at blindside flank will amplify the Springboks' punch at the gainline, an area they dominated in Cape Town. This is important in light of what they lose in this regard with the absence of Bismarck du Plessis. The likes of Marcell Coetzee, Eben Etzebeth, Beast Mtawarira, Willem Alberts and Frans Steyn will be central to getting the Springboks the momentum they need in the collisions to ensure the back division has the space and time to execute the course of action they deem most appropriate. That said, the ball protection at the breakdown was inconsistent at Newlands and they must remedy this shortcoming.
The Springboks' halfback pair played well in their opener and Francois Hougaard in particular must replicate his largely accurate tactical kicking for the Springboks' game plan to work as envisioned. I think it will, and while this victory won't be as comfortable as what they achieved last week in terms of the physical examination they face, the scoreline will reflect the Springboks' superiority.
VREDE'S CALL: Springboks by 12

At Chatham University, the inclusion of all students is a top priority. One way this is accomplished is through a student organization in which people of various spiritual beliefs can gather to discuss their views. The All Faith Gathering has gained momentum in the past year and continues to positively impact the lives of Chatham students by encouraging diversity, acceptance and tolerance.
Each Thursday afternoon, students gather in a small room below the campus chapel. Meetings begin with a drum circle, with each guest listening to the sounds around them in order to sync up and create harmony. This is often followed by a discussion question that gets students' minds flowing with spiritual thoughts and theories, making for interesting conversations throughout the gathering. The rest of the hour usually consists of either a spiritual discussion or a guest speaker who teaches the group about their religion or special belief system.
Although the average attendance to Chatham's All Faith Gathering may be considered small, it is a tight-knit group that has formed close bonds of trust between its members. Most choose to live in the All Faith Living Learning Community in Woodland Hall, helping us to grow even closer together. As a living learning community, first-year students residing there with an interest in faith are encouraged to attend the gatherings.
Holding a gathering for students of various beliefs would be a good addition to any university campus: All it really takes is a few committed students, creativity and a sponsor. There are no set rules for how to hold a gathering and anything goes as long as respect is kept between members. By providing students with a place to be completely open, they can feel more comfortable being themselves regardless of their spirituality...or even their lack thereof.
Melissa Garrett is a sophomore at Chatham University majoring in creative writing with minors in music and business. She works as a resident assistant and is currently in the process of self-publishing several of her books. She also serves as the president of Chatham's LGBT organization and enjoys political activism. Melissa's ultimate goal is to become a college professor herself.

It's very crucial that every college student studies but one thing to study in college is the physicality and the expectations of the college classroom. Every classroom varies so get to know how things are done in each and every one of them.
When walking into a classroom, the first thing that must be done is to observe the set up. Are the chairs/desks lecture style, chevron style, etc.? Also, know where the doors, emergency exits and windows are in case of a fire or other dangerous situations. Observing these things is both helpful and safe.
Next, paying attention in class is extremely important. Try sitting near or in the front row so that you don't miss anything when note-taking. If the front row is full, however, find a seat near the lectern. If that fails, don't be afraid to talk to your professor. (Remember: Professors are there to help you learn in any way possible!) Never sit in the back of the classroom because that gives the impression that you think the subject matter of their class is a waste of time.
Besides observation and listening, having the right materials in class is important. Always bring textbooks, pens/pencils, plenty of paper, laptops (or tablets, if applicable) and homework assignments. This lets professors know that you're willing to participate in class; however, little distractions keep you from learning so avoid texting, social networking or Internet browsing in class, unless your professor gives the okay.
Finally, know your priorities and responsibilities as a student. Your main priority is to learn and interact with the professors and with fellow classmates. Also, study the syllabi so that you'll know what to expect in the courses.
Knowing the dos and don'ts of the college classroom will help you in more ways than one – you'll thank yourself later!

Campus life can get hectic, especially if it is your first time experiencing it. With new opportunities, new people, new rules and new atmosphere all coming together for one big whirlpool of "NEW," it's easy to lose your head and lose focus of the true reason you decided to attend college...and that is higher education!
The most important way to stay grounded is keeping the right company. Friends have way more influence on us than we care to admit. Keeping a circle who can give you a good balance work and fun is key. It is also important to BE a good friend. Sometimes we care more for the well-being of others than our own. Learn to take your own advice!
Setting goals and/or a daily/weekly/monthly schedule will also make life easier. When things get crazy, it is always nice to have something to refer back to. Goal setting can help you determine when you have time to have fun and when it's time to get down to business.
Make sure to balance your extracurriculars as well. Don't JUST join all social or all academic clubs and don't JUST play sports – try a nice medley of everything! This way, you will always have a group to depend on when one aspect of your life is lacking.
College is all about new lessons and experiences but also about getting an education. Don't let all the "NEW" overwhelm you. Be spontaneous, try new things and have fun...but be SMART! Stay grounded and remember the lessons you learned growing up. (Your gut feeling will never let you down!) Keep your future first at all times and you'll navigate the "NEW" like a pro!
Chelsea Slaughter is currently a junior at Jacksonville State University majoring in communications (public relations concentration) and minoring in art. She serves as a resident assistant on campus, is the treasurer in the Public Relations Organization and is an active member in W.I.S.E., NAACP and Omicron Delta Kappa Honors Leadership Society. She aims to work in the entertainment industry post-graduation and is well on her way thanks to an internship with a digital marketer to several music artists. Chelsea strives to achieve all of her goals and motivate others along the way.

When many students begin college, they will be living away from home for the first time. If you are one of these students, it's likely you have a lot of thoughts about living in a college residence hall. You're probably wondering what your roommate will be like, how you will decorate your room and how you will adjust to a new environment but there is an area of residence hall living that is often overlooked: sharing kitchens, bathrooms and other common areas.
During my freshman year of college, I lived in Chatham's Woodland Hall. Though it was a great place to live for the most part – all residents friendly and it is the only residence hall on campus with an elevator – there were some not-so-great qualities as well...the worst being the kitchen. Despite the number of posters that resident assistants hung up asking people to "Please stop dumping food in the sink" and "Please clean up after yourself", no one seemed to listen. (I'm not even going into detail on the condition of the bathrooms.)
It might be easy to say that cleaning up after students is the job of university staff but they can't possibly handle everything, especially when people are being careless and lazy. College students are young adults and learning responsibility is very important. This sort of problem in cleanliness really isn't that difficult to fix and all it takes is a little pitching in from all of the residents. If you pick up after yourself and do your part to make sure things stay clean, chances are that others will follow.
Is there a problem with cleanliness at your school? If so, be sure to report it to your resident assistants so that they can hold a hall meeting. Also, be sure to take charge yourself by expressing your feelings about the place that you live. Tell your friends politely to be sure to clean up after themselves when they are done using a shared space. We are all neighbors in the residence halls and a clean environment is definitely much more pleasant to study in.

For me, there's nothing like the feeling of driving around my hometown and getting flashbacks of good memories with my friends and family. There is nothing that can replace the familiarity of your childhood home but it's important to make your dorm/apartment and your campus your second home. Here are a few things I did with my college living space to feel more like home:

Attending college can be both fun and challenging. As a student, you'll definitely have lot of new experiences but it's best to know about the good and bad.
The good things about college experiences are that they constantly revolve around activities. In college, it wouldn't hurt to get involved with a club or organization that interests you – this way, you can make new friends and give yourself a sense of school pride. Also, doing community service with your school can impact you socially because you're reaching out to your own community and getting to know more people. Plus, joining an honor society or a club that associates with your favorite subject will sweeten your college experience by bringing out your smart and talented edge.
Even though new experiences can be exciting, it's just as important to be very careful when having them. In college, there are many parties and socials and if one over-parties, their academic performance can easily suffer. Also, peer pressure is always present: People may try to lure you into dangerous addictions like smoking, drinking, etc. – this can also lead to academic failure so watch out.
Now knowing the pros and cons of college experiences, you can rest assured that there are ways to have a great time in school. First, academics always come first so make much of your time "study time" as to not lose sight of your academic goals. Secondly, there's nothing wrong with going to socials but it's best to do it in moderation. Finally, listen to yourself: Know what's best for you and understand that what you do while attending college will stick with you...especially thanks to the Internet. Enjoy your time in college but remember not to lose sight of your goals!

Mary Steffenhagen
Hey there, Scholarships.com readers! I'm Mary, a junior English major/business minor student at Concordia University of Wisconsin.
I'll admit, I didn't give my college search as much time or thought as I should have. I chose to attend Concordia for two main reasons: I was offered a substantial academic scholarship (and rather a lot of financial aid) and was able to take a free trip to London, Normandy and Paris through the honors program during my freshman year. However, my time at Concordia has been well spent as I have been able to take a number of fascinating classes with some exceptional professors, make a few lifelong friends, travel and even get some decent sleep.
I love having a busy schedule so this year I plan to intern in Milwaukee and hopefully (fingers crossed!) head to New York City in the winter. I've indulged myself a little with my English major – reading and being impacted by what I read has always been one of the best parts of my life – and I am looking forward to a career that not only allows but requires me to do just that.
The opportunity to be a virtual intern with Scholarships.com is one I couldn't pass up: Not only is this the sort of writing experience necessary for my resume, but it's a bit out of my comfort zone. I hope to challenge myself to be a resource to you readers and help bring some insight into the ordeals of life as a college student.
I'll sign off with the most important thing college has helped me realize (so far): Challenge yourself and you'll be pleasantly surprised at what you can accomplish. Thanks for reading!

In college, you will never be a stranger to professors. In fact, professors can be your greatest allies if you get to know them academically, professionally and socially. All professors are different so it's best to get to know them as individuals and as educators.
The first step? Introduce yourself on the first day of class. Acknowledge them fully so that they'll know that you're willing to learn what they have to offer and always be courteous towards your teachers; if you respect them, they'll give you respect in return – it's a win-win.
All professors differ when it comes to academics because they have different grading techniques. Pay close attention to how your professor(s) grade assignments and exams; it's very likely that they'll explain their grading process to you early on in the semester so be sure to grab a pen and paper and take notes!
In a professional aspect, your professors will always provide the class with a syllabus. Reading and studying a syllabus will help you familiarize yourself with the rules and expectations for the class. If you forget a rule or expectation, then feel free to look back on the syllabus at any time.
Socially, professors will definitely expect communication and feedback from their students so don't be afraid to talk to them, ask them questions if you're struggling to understand something, attend office hours and keep in touch with them via email/phone in case of emergencies. And if you see them outside of class, be sure to say hello!

It's agonizing to suddenly relinquish a free and easy summer schedule to the clutches of the college schedule...but what happens when your weeks in school are just as free they are over break?
You may end up with a situation a lot of college students dream of: a surplus of free time. This happened to me during my freshman year, as I had a pretty open class schedule, a weekends-only job and didn't join any clubs. I ended up bored to death nearly every day! But I didn't realize that the extra time was an advantage that not only gave me a chance for homework but time to focus on personal goals. If you find yourself in this situation, here are a few tips as to how to best spend your time:
However you choose to spend your extra time, make sure you enjoy yourself. Having time to yourself while in college is a rarity and you may not have such an opportunity in later semesters. College is about exploring and learning...not being bored because there's nothing to do. So get out there and make use of your time – you won't regret it!
Mary Steffenhagen is a junior at Concordia University of Wisconsin who is majoring in English with a minor in business.

More lenses
Mount type
To provide photographers with a broader perspective about mobiles, lenses and cameras, here are links to articles, reviews, and analyses of photographic equipment produced by DxOMark, renown websites, magazines or blogs.
Announced in June this year, the K-50 is an accessibly priced environmentally sealed DSLR featuring a built-in stabilization and a 16-MPix APS-C size CMOS sensor. As Pentax has yet to introduce a full-frame DSLR to the range the K-50, like others before it, can benefit from one of the largest lens ranges designed for the smaller APS-C sensor. The result is an appealing and unsurpassed range of compact and highly portable primes and zooms. We have analyzed the optical properties of 28 different models in total from Pentax as well as third-party makers, mounted on the new K-50, to help you in your selection either when buying new for the first time or when simply choosing which lens to take with you on your next shoot.
Mounted on a camera with an APS-C sensor, a 35mm lens corresponds to a 53.5mm mounted on a 24*36mm film camera. This focal is very popular and it's designed to excel on portrait and landscape. We could say this 35mm might be the only lens you need for your Pentax.

Men's Basketball Falls at Erskine 79-74 Despite 31 from Smith
February 11, 2012
DUE WEST, S.C. - Despite a game-high 31 points from Danny Smith, Erskine College knocked down crucial free throws during crunch time to claim a 79-74 win over Pfeiffer University in Conference Carolinas men's basketball action on Saturday in Belk Arena. The Fleet move to 8-16 overal, 4-9 in league play while the Falcons even to 11-11, 5-7.
Down by as much as 19 midway through the second, Pfeiffer cut the lead down to just one with 1:11 remaining as a three-pointer by Danny Smith gave Erskine a slim 73-72 lead. The Fleet would go on to convert six of their final eight free throws to hold on for the win. Pfeiffer missed three triple attempts in the final 38 seconds trying to come up with the equalizer. Erskine had the lead from the intial tip to the final buzzer.
Corey Sorrell paced the Fleet as one of four scorers in double-figures with 18 points. Smith tallied his game-high 31 while Reggie Hollinger contributed with 16. Erskine shot 52% in the win while the Falcons needed a 58% shooting second half to finish at 48% for the night.

Add criminal charges to the civil complaint arising from alleged construction fraud.
Martin Peele, an employee at Majestic Roofing and Buildings, faces a misdemeanor charge of failure to work after paid in Lenoir County, and a felony charge of obtaining property under false pretense in Duplin County.
Wednesday, Jimmy Williams — a former customer of Majestic — took his case to Lenoir County District Court. According to Williams, Peele, charged with the misdemeanor of failure to work after paid, asked for a continuance. The case goes back in front of a judge May 2.
Williams said he's out $1,968 for work that was never completed.
"I go outside the courtroom, and he's standing outside waiting for me, and talking about he's going to pay my money back," Williams said. "And I said, 'Dude, if you were going to pay my money back you would have given it back to me.' Then he keeps blaming it on this Otis guy."
Anne and Rodrick Moore, who won a civil judgment against Majestic in January, believe Otis Simmons to be the owner of the company. He's the company principal according to the Better Business Bureau and the registered contact for Majestic's website.
And according to the church's website, Simmons is a pastor at Whosoever Will Church of Christ-Disciples of Christ on U.S. 258 North. Phone numbers listed for the church have been disconnected, and no one was at the location when The Free Press stopped by Thursday afternoon.
Rodrick Moore got in touch with Simmons two weeks ago.
"He called me, and said, 'Mr. Moore, I'm going to send you your money, if you'll work with me. I'm going to send you your money in two weeks,' " Moore said. "He said he was sorry things worked out like they did, but he didn't know anything about it."
Two weeks passed, and Moore didn't hear back. Calls went unanswered.
"He sent a letter out here — it wasn't a threatening letter — it was a letter that somebody made up like, 'You can't call me because I owe you money. You're not supposed to collect that money,' " Moore said. "It was just a bunch of junk."
The Moores, who are out $2,658.75 for a building that was not completed, took the letter to their lawyer, who laughed at it, Moore said.
Wednesday, Moore called Simmons and left him a message, saying, "You're even deeper in it than he was," referring to Peele.
Peele has a criminal history in Randolph County of taking money for constructions projects that were never finished, earning him a five-year suspended sentence in 2011.
Through another construction company, a Duplin man who claimed he was wronged by Majestic contacted Williams and said he'd been taken for $3,200. That complaint resulted in a felony charge for Peele, who is due in court June 14 in Duplin County.
For his part, Peele said unhappy customers should take up their problem with someone higher up in the organization than him.
"No. 1, I am not the owner of Majestic Roofing, I was not an officer with Majestic Roofing, I work for Majestic Roofing, and that's it," Peele said. "And so, you would need to talk to someone with Majestic Roofing about that situation."
Peele said he didn't have a phone number for Simmons.
Moore gave The Free Press a contact number, and a message was left on Simmons' voicemail to return the call, which did not happen as of press time.
Wes Wolfe can be reached at 252-559-1075 or firstname.lastname@example.com. Follow him on Twitter @WolfeReports.
Outstanding charges against Marvin Peele:
- Lenoir: Misdemeanor failure to work after paid
- Duplin: Felony obtaining property under false pretense
Outstanding charges against Otis Simmons:
- None

COLUMBIA — Following revelations the state wildlife department has failed to release a major climate change report, the agencys former chief said the department should be leading efforts to brace South Carolina for the consequences of global warming.
John Frampton, who left the Department of Natural Resources last year, said that the Earths rising temperatures will undoubtedly affect the states landscape and wildlife in coming years and that the DNR is well qualified to examine the impacts in South Carolina.
I would liked to have seen the DNR be a leader, Frampton said this week. I would have liked to have positioned our staff ... on this. We have experts in the agency to assess climate change.
His comments came days after The State newspaper reported that a team of DNR scientists had voiced serious concerns about climate change in South Carolina, although their report has been under wraps since Frampton announced he was leaving the agency in late 2011.
DNR officials say that their priorities have changed and that there is less urgency to release the study, which they say needs some revision. Frampton championed the study and recommended its release in late 2011. The Nov. 18, 2011, draft says it was ready for release.
In the 102-page report obtained recently by the newspaper, scientists recommend increasing public awareness about climate change, while continuing to study the impacts of global warming in South Carolina.
From a wildlife and natural resources standpoint, climate change is definitely going to have an impact, said Frampton, who wrote a two-page foreword to the climate report.
The climate report lists potentially substantial threats to South Carolina ranging from the invasion of exotic eels and piranha to flooding of seaside homes and destruction of ecologically valuable marshes if temperatures continue to rise.
But the study also notes that man-made pollution sources have contributed to global warming. That point is widely accepted by scientists but attacked by politicians concerned about new regulations for industry.
Former U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service director Steve Williams, who heads the national Wildlife Management Institute, said some states have tackled the issue of global warming, but others shy away for political reasons.
It could be very political, Williams said.
Frampton declined comment when asked if he had received any pressure not to release the study before he left DNR. A majority of the agencys board members were appointed by Gov. Nikki Haley after her election in 2010 on a pro-business, jobs-first agenda. The DNR report was under way when Haley took office in 2011.
Haley spokesman Rob Godfrey said the governor was unaware of the climate change report.
John Evans, DNR board chairman, also said Haleys office had not discussed the report with him or other board members, but he said DNR wanted to be careful about conclusions in the climate report. The board has taken no action to release the report.
The board only wanted to make certain that the effort was not to produce an advocacy document that pointed to the reasons for climate change, which remain under scientific debate, Evans said in an email to The State last week.
Evans said Tuesday he personally believes human activities are contributing to global warming. But Evans said the agency isnt positioned to say why climate change is occurring, only how it could affect South Carolina.
He had no timetable for when the report would be put out for public review by his agency.
Theres nothing anybody was covering up or politically doing, Evans said. It was just an informational report that was presented. It wasnt a priority at the time.

Dana Freeman is in her second season as head women's track & field and assistant women's cross country coach. In her first year, the Generals finished third at both the indoor and outdoor ODAC Championships. W&L athletes also broke six program records over the course of the two seasons, and claimed four individual ODAC titles.
In 2013-14 with Freeman at the helm, Dana Lee '17 qualified for the NCAA Championship in the long jump in both the indoor and outdoor seasons.

The women's program also finished in the Top 5 at the NCAA Championships. Additionally, Ashland athletes won 17 individual conference championships, while receiving 12 All-America citations and breaking seven school records.
Freeman was also responsible for recruitment of student-athletes for the jumping events and assisted in every facet of the day-to-day operations of the track & field program. She also handled the department's ticket sales for football and assisted with the scholarship monitoring for the entire athletic department and served on the athletic financial aid committee. She also served as faculty advisor to the Student-Athlete Advisory Committee for two years.
Prior to arriving at Ashland, Freeman served as an assistant track & field coach at Roanoke College for the 2009-10 school year, helping the Maroons' women's program to ODAC Championships in both the indoor and outdoor seasons.
From 2006-09, Freeman was an assistant track & field coach and assistant to the athletic director at the College of Wooster. She also served as the interim senior women's administrator for the 2008-09 school year. At Wooster, she coached 15 all-conference honorees, including four conference champions. Her coaching experience also includes stints at Radford University (2003-04) and Campbell University (2002-03).
Freeman is a 2001 graduate of Kent State University where she earned a bachelor of arts in political science with a minor in sport management. She participated on the Golden Flashes track & field team, earning all-conference honors in the pole vault for both the indoor and outdoor seasons. She is currently working towards completion of a master of education in sport sciences at Ashland.

If this truly is Autheil, can the elves of Rivendell, win back Autheil's memory, and Elladan her heart before it is too late, before her mind is truly overthrown and fate gets a hand in the game of love and hate, war and peace,and as all the people of middle earth know, fate always has its way.

In 1979 when I went to boot camp, I was not the stereotypical Marine recruit. I was tall and skinny and thought about things too much, drawing to me special attention of the kind that one does not want from drill instructors.
During a "classroom circle" (sitting on the floor around the drill instructor) in the squad bay (barracks) a few days before we left for two weeks of rifle range training, the senior drill instructor, Staff Sgt. Huston, said he already knew who would flunk at the range. He pointed out several of us, including me.
Why me? First, I was raised in the suburbs, and seeing how I handled my rifle during the early weeks of boot camp, Staff. Sgt. Huston rightly figured that I'd never shot a rifle in my life.
Second, Staff Sgt. Huston said I would think about it too much and every time I aimed, I'd mess it up. (He used far more colorful language.)
The first time I aimed a loaded rifle at a target, sure enough, I began to doubt my training. The target was
Well, it did not.
But the second bullet did, as did many more, and not just from
I left the rifle range entitled to wear a Marine Corps Rifle Expert badge, the coveted crossed rifles that outrank the badges for Sharpshooter (a cross pattée behind a target) and Marksman (just a target). It was a feat I achieved two more times before I put my uniform away for the final time. Turns out the Marine Corps can teach even a city boy like me how to shoot not just decently, but expertly.
When I left active duty, I bought a Ruger Mini-14 I had been eyeing at a
It sounded like this at the range that day: plink, plink-plink, pop, plink, pop, BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOBOOBOBOBOBOBOOM!
Nothing sounds quite as authoritative and get-down-to-business as a
Anyway, a few months later I needed money more than I needed a Mini-14, and I sold it for more than I originally paid. I haven't owned or shot a firearm since then. But we do have a German shepherd.
Despite the training, I always had a healthy, almost fearful respect for the firearms I carried.
A couple of weeks ago, a
A couple of weeks ago, a wife calmly handed her husband a pistol who then allegedly shot up a vehicle during a road rage incident that started in James City and ended in Newport.
If I had a gun in my house, I would not sleep well, knowing what trouble my children can get into the moment I'm not looking. These are feelings I have and choices I make, in my household, based on some knowledge of the subject. Others decide differently and I respect that, just as I expect them to respect decisions I make in my life.
What I've learned is that people who demand others respect their lifestyle choices, sometimes don't reciprocate.
Thanks for letting me pontificate on your Sunday morning.

My mistake for not seeing these are hard pills, caplets, not soft gel capsules. I tried them anyway and I had severe intestinal cramping for days. Very constipating. Not for me. I'm waiting for arrival of my Green Coffee Bean Extract with Raspberry Ketone CAPSULES from Carol Wright. Just becareful if you are prone to digestive problems. You may not wants the hard pills.

Minutes of meeting held on April 19th 1939 at 69 Great Russell Street.
Present: Dr. H.B. Morgan (Chairman), Professor J.R. Marrack, Dr. J. Wright, Mr. C.H. Norman, Mr. T. Blewitt, Mr. W. Lockyer, Mrs. I. Brown, Mr. R. Calder, Mrs. L. Manning, Lord Faringdon, Dr. S.W. Jeger, Mr. Le Gros Clark, Mr. G. Jeger.
1) Minutes of meeting held on March 29th were read and confirmed.
2) Matters Arising:
a) The five vehicles sent to Valencia. Information had now been received that the S.S. " Lulca " had not gone to Spain after all.
It had not been able to get through the blockade and had gone to Algeria. A report had been received that it was at present at Bona, and the Organising Secretary stated that he had immediately written to a shipping company in that town asking for arrangements to be made for the vehicles to be sent back to Marseilles. It was agreed that on their arrival there they should be lent to any responsible organisation able to utilise them in the Refugee Camps.
b) Nurse Addy. A cable had been received from Mr. Holst in Valencia, dated April 17th, reading:- "Madge from Ucles yesterday is awaiting here possibilities for leaving inform family." Miss Addy's family had been informed of this.
c) The Dieppe Case. During his visit to Paris the Organising Secretary had had long discussions on this with the C.S.I. and with Messrs. Kennerley Hall, solicitors. The former asserted that they had left the matter entirely in the hands of their lawyer, and could not understand his neglect of the case. This lawyer was at the same time a director of the Insurance Company who had insured our lorry. Messrs. Kennerley Hall had ascertained that the first hearing of the case had taken place in November, when judgment was given by default. This judgment was that the responsibility for the accident rested equally with the victim and Mr. Hunt, the driver. The victim's parents were therefore awarded 30,000 francs, being half the amount of their claim, plus interest since the date of the accident, and costs. A request for a re-hearing had been lodged by the Insurance Company, and this had taken place in March, when the previous Judgment was upheld. In the opinion of the solicitors it would be inadvisable to pursue the matter any further at present. They advise us to take no action for the time being, but suggest that enquiries be made in Dieppe in a little while, as to whether the money has been paid by the Insurance Company, or whether a further appeal has been lodged. At the same time, a letter should be sent to the C.S.I. in accordance with a draft suggested by the solicitors, making it quite clear that we had been kept in ignorance of the position regarding this case and its two court hearings.
It was agreed that the suggested letter be sent and that the solicitors be asked to pursue enquiries in Dieppe in due course.
d) Dr. Quemada wrote from Norway stating his position and asking in general terms for assistance. Mr. Norman moved that we send him £25, but this found no seconder. It was decided to ask Dr. Quemada how we can help him, and whether he would like us to endeavour to make arrangements for him to go to China or to emigrate to Mexico.
e) Re N.J.C. Conference. Mrs. Brown reported that the morning session had been spent in receiving reports from Lady Hall on

Exceed expectations. Even though it's a little pricey but it does come with the pump so that make it reasonable. Very acurrate and trustworthy. I expect it to work a long time. Quality product By Sal on 7/21/2013 Sal would recommend this product to a friend This was very fun and simple to install. It works flawlessly. Reliable and effective By Andrew on 7/20/2013 Andrew would recommend this product to a friend I have had this running a few months on my 80 gallon reef. The unit was relatively easy to set up, the instructions are just poorly laid out. Once set up there were no issues and it has been keeping my water level consistent. Well worth the price!!!!!!!!!!! By jhmeresqu on 7/8/2013 jhmeresqu would recommend this product to a friend I utilized it as my ATO for my RO/DI water return to sump system to replace evaporated water. Works great , love the fact that it has the Sensor Eye and the backup float switch. Can't get enough redundancy. A little pricey but well worth it. Great investment By Mpek on 6/30/2013 Mpek would recommend this product to a friend All I have to say is that this system makes my life a lot easier! As long as I keep my ATO container full it runs flawlessly. I would recommend this to anyone. Not bad By Shalashaska on 6/28/2013 Shalashaska would recommend this product to a friend I've had it so far for 3 days. The set up was easy. I dident have to use the instructions what so ever. The only thing I found so far that is a issue is that micro-bubbles from my protein skimmer like to settle on the optical eye, thus giving a false water low indication. I just moved it to a better location, problem solved. Great But there is a break in period. By Will on 6/26/2013 Will would recommend this product to a friend So for the first 3 or 4 days the "eye" sensor has a hydrophobic film which will make the sensor think it is in the air and will continuously pump water until the float switch will shut it off I recommend you leave the sensor in the sump for 2-3 without turning it on that will resolve these issues. Overall nice ATO By PMK on 6/17/2013 PMK would recommend this product to a friend I am pleased with this ato unit. I had some issues with the pump just kicking on and staying on. Dropped 2L of rodi into the system and stopped when the float kicked in. I couldn't figure it out and thought I might have a bad unit. So broke it down off my display and set it up on my mixing tank. The same thing happened. So ran through the set up again and disconnected the pump from the power supply wires and connected them up again. That did it. The pump no longer kicks in and stays on. Haven't seen this in other reviews or the Tube but did see a review about a weird first hour break in period. Guess it was the connection or the break in period. But its been on my display for a couple weeks now and has kept the water level very stable. Been monitoring the salinity and everything has been real stable. I think it will be a long term success. I agree with some other reviews that it seems a bit delicate for a couple hundred bucks. Great Product! By Andy on 6/8/2013 Andy would recommend this product to a friend I purchased this item about a year ago for my Red Sea Max 250. The skimmer on that tank is very finicky and needs constant adjustments to work properly when the water level changes. This ATO has fixed that issue for good! I have a five gallon bucket of RODI water sitting under the tank for top off purposes and the Osmolator takes care of the rest. My tank water level is always where it needs to be and my skimmer is running at optimum efficiency. If you're looking for a good quality and reliable ATO look no further! Working great for the past 8 months By Ron on 6/3/2013 Ron would recommend this product to a friend Have had this ATO unit for almost 8 months on a 90 Gal reef with no issues. Working as good today as the day I got it. Set up was easy. No more having to add top off water every day. Excellent Product, Well Worth the extra $$$ By Huck on 5/31/2013 Huck would recommend this product to a friend Initially, I was reluctant to spend the extra money on the Tunze. I did tons of research and I saw this product had excellent reviews, but what sealed the deal for me is, I was reading reviews on a JBJ auto top off system and someone who purchase a JBJ stated that he wish he would have went with the Tunze and not taken the cheaper option. Unit has been in service now for approx 3 months and not a single problem. Definitely the way to go! Top-notch !!!!!!!!! By Jimbo on 5/30/2013 Jimbo would recommend this product to a friend Sweet, could't ask for a better quality ATO system.Like the redundency with the Sensor and the float switch combined. Excellent product. Worth the extra investment.

Want to successfully juggle healthy eating with a busy lifestyle?
I don't run away from a challenge because I am afraid. Instead, I run toward it because the only way to escape fear is to trample it beneath your feet.
~Nadia Comaneci
Are you changing to a healthier diet, but struggling to include the right foods in your new meal plan? Are you wondering how to get it all done? Beginning a new meal plan requires adjustments to your daily routine. In this article, I'll share with you the secrets of how to balance healthy eating with a busy lifestyle.
Now that you have made the decision to become healthier, you may face some "challenges" around changing dietary habits. Here are some questions you may have about how to juggle healthy eating with a busy lifestyle:
1. Does it take longer to heal?
The natural approach to healing is not a "quick" fix; healing takes time. Unlike drugs or surgery where improvements or changes occur fairly quickly, using food takes longer. By trusting in the process, you can allow the natural pace of healing to occur. You'll experience deeper, longer lasting effects, when the body heals at its own pace rather than forcing the body to change. Mindfulness meditation while enjoying a meal is particularly helpful in calming and focusing the mind. Breathing and chewing slowly enhances digestion, relaxes the body, and promotes healing. (Refer to my blog for mindfulness meditation techniques while eating.)
2. Does cooking take longer in the kitchen?
Cooking is like any other routine that you fit into your life–you have to make room for it by setting aside the time. It will be helpful to schedule cooking in your daily plan on your calendar. When you plan your day, make some appointments in your calendar for cooking. Prepare long-cooked meals, like grains, beans, and soups, on the weekend so they are ready to heat up when you are in a rush. When you set the intention to make healthy eating a priority, your new lifestyle becomes the norm.
3. Is eating healthy more expensive?
Over the long term, eating healthy foods is easy on your budget. Eating locally grown, seasonal whole foods saves you money not only in packaging costs but also in freshness. You will get a higher quality product and that shows up in flavor as well as in the state of your health. By paying for fresh organic food now, you are preventing disease later and that not only saves you in hospital costs, but also ensures a better quality of life in your later years.
Make sure you are getting the right foods into your meal plan. One of the easiest things you can do right now to fit healthy eating into your life is to throw away all your processed foods, including white bread, white rice, boxed cereals, and white flour products like pasta.
Now is the time to start fresh. You are on the right track and the best is yet to come!
Posted on October 17, 2011, in All, health, macrobiotics and tagged Diet Plan, Diet Program, Healthy Dieting. Bookmark the permalink. 3 Comments.
Thank you for your fantastic blog. I am trying desperately to educate my family about healthy eating and it is very difficult but progress is being made. This season we have planted a whole range of different vegetables and have been trying out new recipes we found on the net and yes, processed foods are being eliminated slowly but surely.
Julie you have so many interesting articles here, I am slowly working my way through them and learning an awful lot of new stuff. Thanks

2007 Chrysler Crossfire Problem Reports
Newest 2007 Chrysler Crossfire Problem Reports
If the brake switch (brake-shift interlock) is out of adjustment, the shift lever may not shift out of park.
Interior door pull handles are available separately and replacement of the door trim panel may not be required if only the door handle needs service.
Often misdiagnosed as a transmission oil pan gasket leak, the electrical connector on the automatic transmission may leak.
The heated seats may stop working. Our technicians tell us special repair kits are available from Chrysler to correct this concern.
Electrical Connector into transmission is leaking oil.
I've been told by dealer that this was a common problem on the 2005 model and that it would cost $185.00 to fix it. Unfortunately because it is a seal it is not covered under an extended warranty I bought with the car.
Does anyone know if this repair is a simple one or is the dealer the better way to go? For example I did my own cabin air filter and saved $70 over the dealer's quote.
