AP Statehouse Correspondent
COLUMBUS — With his budget now passed, Republican Ohio Gov. John Kasich blasted Democrats and their allies on Friday for pursuing a partisan agenda while fighting his efforts to fix the state's economy.
Kasich is scheduled to appear Sunday on CBS' "Face the Nation," then head on a multistate tour to promote tax breaks, investment incentives and a bill opening Ohio's public lands — including state parks — to oil and gas drilling, which he believes can help get the state back on its feet.
"This isn't about an assault on anybody," Kasich said during an event at his official residence in Bexley to tout passage of the state's nearly $56 billion, two-year budget. "This is about making things work in Ohio and not being a god-darned 1920s state that is falling behind and getting crushed economically."
Kasich lamented what he sees as increasing partisanship in the country, even as he singled out the party that opposes his efforts. He also said he still has hope he can convince Democrats of the value of his ideas. "I'll charm them," he said after his rant against their failure to support the Republicans' budget.
Lagging in popularity polls, Kasich has presided over the passage of significant privatization efforts, cuts to schools and local governments, and an overhaul of the state's collective bargaining overhaul that have prompted a labor-backed backlash against him.
Kasich had particularly harsh words for ProgressOhio, a liberal policy group that has filed suits against his administration alleging violations of the state constitution with one of his Cabinet appointments and his effort to privatize the state's economic development office. The group also filed suit after a lockdown of the Statehouse during collective bargaining rallies.
"Driving Mark Kvamme out of the Department of Development was one of the most irresponsible things I've ever seen in my political career," he said. "Why'd they do that? Constitutional issues? I know the press can tend to be a little cynical. Maybe you ought to think about that, why they did it. It's disrupting, and we're not going to let them disrupt the agenda of helping Ohio recover."
The group's challenge to Kvamme's appointment noted opinions by the state attorney general and an opinion of the bipartisan Legislative Service Commission that Cabinet appointees need to be residents and registered voters of the state. Kvamme was a resident of California when he was appointed.
"What's happening in Ohio now is if you lose you sue or you make a public records request, slow down the process," Kasich said. "It's all in the pursuit of selfish power."
ProgressOhio executive director Brian Rothenberg said Kasich needs to be reminded how democracy works.
"I guess we're all getting used to these political tantrums," Rothenberg said. "The fact of the matter is he swore to uphold the whole constitution, not just the parts he likes."
After the group's lawsuit, Kasich appointed Kvamme to a non-Cabinet advisory position within his administration and named a new development director.

7 Paladins. 8 Bosses. 3 Hours. 0 Wipes. 1 Portal/Summon chain to get an Aqual Quintessence to put out the last rune.
(Yeah, we're noobs. :) )
I didn't get any loot but it was a ton of fun. The raid leader apparently decided that we were good enough, and started chain pulling like crazy. I don't think I was out of combat at all for the first 20 minutes. I only died once, I think, on Gehennas where I took a 3k Shadowbolt fairly early. I don't think I've ever survived that fight, for some reason. No idea what I'm doing wrong.
I ran around with my [Earthshaker] for the first half, and it was a great deal of fun. Too bad everything in MC is immune to stuns. Though now that I think about it, this could have been really bad during Lucifron when I was Mind Controlled ([Earthshaker] has an AoE stun proc). I'll have to remember that for next time.
The more I run with this guild, the more I feel that paladins meleeing is the best way to go for an Alliance raid. If our paladins had all been standing back and spamming Flash of Light, I think it would have gone much slower and not nearly as cleanly.
Also, a random thought about damage meters. I think an absolute ranking is misleading. For example, in today's raid, the #1 guy had slightly more than 5% of the total damage, and the #10 guy had slightly less than 5%. With such a small spread like that, position is very misleading. I think a much better metric would be % of the #1 person's damage. Someone being position #15 isn't that much of a problem if she's doing 90% of the top person's damage, but it is potentially an issue if she's doing 40%.
But then again, I don't think this guild cares too much about damage meters. As long as we're killing everything, life is good.

I think the main problem with the paladin community is that they choose either extreme heals or extreme dps. Meaning that critadins run around in warrior gear and are at the point where they dont have the mana to heal or cleanse at all, while healadins run around in all lawbringer, incapable of doing damage.

I agree with Coriel that Paladins should be meleeing. However, many Paladins either...
1. Lack the self control to stop attacking when his/her teammates need help.
2. Lack the vigilance to notice that his/her teammates need help in the first place.
Many people think playing a Paladin is EZmode. However I completely disagree. Playing a hybrid right requires more than just focusing on 1 speciality. Paladins who are not up to the challenge deserve their heal/cleanse-bot role imo.

It's not a self control issue but a focus issue. I've been in MC fights where I've switch roles from DPS to Healer to Tank (Lava pack pull gone horribly wrong) and it's a very differant set of tasks. How you use your mana is very differant. DPSing you burn through it. Healing you worry more about timing and tanking is all about using it in the most effective manner. There is a reason that all three playstyles require differant gear. ;)
There are alot of other issues as well. I tend to raid with a cluttered UI. I have SCT showing my damage/healing. I have the emergency monitor up, I have the CTRA groups up. I'm watching HPS on the damage meter. (It's so I can see who is running out of mana. It's not accurate but I can get a feel when someone is running out. It's how you look like a super hero when priests/druids run out of mana. )
My UI is discord with all of my skills showing. It's alot of input to watch and parse.
And it's really easy to get lost in all of that data. Hell, I know plenty of rogues who get lost in watching thier cooldowns and don't feint. And I don't blame paladins for choosing one or another. After 7 hours in BWL, I have a headache.

That's the thing. I don't think you need to focus all that much on doing damage to still be effective. We're not rogues who need to punch buttons constantly.
Run in, judge, Seal. That's usually all the attention you need to put into damage. Then you can just cleanse and heal as needed. You don't need to stop attacking to help your team.
Sure, you may only be doing 80% of the damage you could be doing, but it's good enough.
- 1:24 PM, June 02, 2006
- Thoma said...
Eh, timing conscrate spam, seal/judge every eight seconds, holy shock....we have some options. But it's a matter of focus. Even with our limited tool set, it's still very possible to get into a tunnel vision setting. It's even easier when you relax due to a "trival" mob.

Jackson doesn't panic, beats Central Valley to advance to semis
Timberwolves fend off Central Valley to win 55-47, take on Arlington next
But it happened on Thursday afternoon in the team's quarterfinal game at the state Class 4A tournament. After getting a rebound basket from Brian Zehr for an early 2-0 lead, the Timberwolves missed their next three shots and also suffered three turnovers, allowing Central Valley to break out to a 10-2 margin in the Tacoma Dome.
Concern, yes. Panic, hardly.
Jackson pecked away at Central Valley's lead through the rest of the first half, went on top 26-25 by halftime, gained the lead for good late in the third quarter and pulled out a hard-fought 55-47 victory.
"I was pleased with the kids," Jackson coach Steve Johnson said. "It would've been easy for them to say, 'Geez, we're undefeated, we're at the state tournament, and now we're down eight. That's embarrassing.'
"But there was none of that. I didn't feel like anyone panicked … and we overcame kind of a rough start."
"Being down early is something we're not used to, no doubt," added T-wolves junior forward Jason Todd, who finished with 19 points, eight rebounds and four assists, all team bests. "But no matter what the score is, we're going to battle until the final seconds go off. I knew we'd come back and give them a game, and we were fortunate enough to get out with a win."
If there was a turning point to the game, it came in the third quarter when Johnson switched his team from a man-to-man to zone defense. To that point, eight of Central Valley's 11 field goals had been layins, rebound put-backs and other shots right around the rim.
"I'm a man-to-man guy," Johnson said, "but you have to have something else you can go to." A zone is "our secondary defense," he went on, "and we realized they were penetrating a lot and they weren't making a lot of outside shots, so we thought we should maybe show them something different."
That defensive switch came in a seven-minute span when the Bears did not convert a field goal. It also coincided with a 12-2 Jackson scoring burst that produced a 39-33 lead early in the fourth quarter, and the T-wolves protected their margin in the game's remaining minutes with a patient offense and a flurry of free throws.
With Central Valley playing a pressuring, physical defense, Jackson put the game out of reach with 10 straight free throws in the game's final 3½ minutes.
The game's top individual highlight was a spinning, off-balance and basically desperation 3-pointer from the right wing by Jackson guard Dan Kingma at the third-period horn. The shot, which swished cleanly, was hugely important, giving the T-wolves a big emotional lift and a 37-33 lead going to the fourth quarter.
"It got the crowd going, that's for sure," Todd said. "And it got us going, too."
The T-Wolves got a scare late in the first quarter when Todd went down hard under the basket after a layin attempt. The shot rolled off the rim, no foul was called and Todd stayed on the court as the action went the other way because an opposing player had landed on his head. But he was soon on his feet and unhurt.
"I'm a little woozy right now," he admitted, "but I'll be OK."
The victory sets up an all-Western Conference semifinal with Jackson meeting Arlington for the third time this season. The T-wolves won the first two games, both by double digits, heading into Friday's 5:30 p.m. game.
"We're looking forward to (playing Arlington again)," Todd said. "I've never had to beat another team three times (in one season), but they're playing lights out right now.
"They're not the same team they were (earlier in the season), and neither are we," he said. "So that's what makes this exciting. We'll trade punches and see who comes out (on top) at the end."
At Tacoma Dome
Jackson 6 20 11 18 -- 55
Central Valley 13 12 8 14 -- 47
Jackson -- Kyle Graff 0, Dan Kingma 12, Jason Todd 19, Brian Zehr 12, Markus Blake 3, Connor Willgress 6, Riley Waite 3. Central Valley -- Trey Carolan 0, Adam Chamberlain 13, A.J.

Tax brackets are features of progressive tax systems or systems that include marginal tax rates. Each bracket represents a threshold. Taxable income that falls above the cutoff value is typically taxed at a higher rate, while taxable income below the threshold figure is usually taxed at a lower percentage.
International tax codes frequently include brackets for both individual and corporate income taxes. In the United States, tax brackets are found in both federal and state income tax systems. However, state tax brackets vary widely—while some states have just a few income tax brackets, others have nine or more.
Congress establishes the tax brackets outlined in the Internal Revenue Code (IRC). Since income in higher tax brackets can be subject to significantly higher tax rates, individuals and corporations have incentives to manage and reduce taxable income. Best practices include the following:
- Know your tax bracket. Tax brackets change periodically, so it's important to verify federal and state tax brackets during annual tax planning routines. By understanding income thresholds, you can develop strategies to keep taxable income out of higher tax brackets.
- Use deductions to avoid high tax brackets. For individuals, deductions are the most effective way to reduce taxable income and avoid higher tax rates on the portion of income that falls above established thresholds. In addition to itemized deductions, taxpayers may be entitled to deduct amounts for IRAs, self-employment tax and other expenses.
- Actively manage your effective tax rate. Corporations can use a combination of deductions, tax deferrals, tax credits and other strategies to minimize taxable income. Many corporations use these tactics to avoid higher tax brackets and significantly reduce their effective tax rates.
Currently, in the United States, statutory corporate tax rates applied to the corporate tax brackets, as defined in the IRC, range from 15 percent on the first $50,000 of taxable income up to 35 percent on income over $18.3 million. Higher corporate tax rates (as high as 39 percent) are applied within some tax brackets to phase out the benefits of the lower rates. For personal income taxes, the bracketed tax rates vary from 10 percent to 39.6 percent.

About Fiona Apple
Fiona Apple wants to be your Valentine
It may be thisclose to Christmas, but Fiona Apple wants to be your Valentine. On February 4, 2014, Hear Music/Concord Music and Starbucks will team up to release "Sweethearts 2014," their fifth compilation of romantic cover songs. This new collection will feature 13 tracks – including one by Apple – that are split between new covers and selections that have already been in an artist's setlist.
Of course Apple isn't the only one featured on the new project. She's joined by the likes of My Morning Jacket frontman Jim James as he covers Bob Marley's "Turn Your Lights Down Low," Vampire Weekend re-imagine opera singer Andrea Bocelli's "Con T Partiro," and The Head and the Heart cover Haryr Nilsson's "Don't Forget Me." And Apple isn't flying solo on her track. She's joined by sister Maude Maggart as they duet on The Third Man's "I'm in the Middle of a Riddle."
A physical version of the Valentine's-themed release will be sold only at Starbucks. A digital copy will also be made available through Concord Music Group.
This is the first new music Apple has released since her 2012 album "The Idler Wheel." She began strongly promoting the single "Hot Knife" early in 2013, and reunited with Paul Thomas Anderson for the song's music video.
Anderson, an acclaimed director responsible for "Boogie Nights" and "There Will Be Blood," dated apple in the late 1990s and early 2000s. He's also helmed several of her other videos, including "Across the Universe," "Fast As You Can" and "Paper Bag."
Superstar can't shake 'Loose Cannon' label (Updated January 30, 2013)
Before Tori Amos, Sara Bareilles, Lady Gaga and Alicia Keys, there was Fiona Apple. For decades she has resisted auto-tuned vocals, synthesizers and digitally altered tunes in favor of showing herself as an accomplished pianist and vocalist. With rich arrangements and melodies, not to mention a wider audience thanks to some jazz-tinged material, she was practically the overnight sensation of the late 1990s.
If there's one thing that can be easily explained about Fiona Apple, it's her angst-ridden lyrics. Her parents separated when she was just four years old. She taught herself piano by eight, and was playing and writing songs at the age of 12, all while trying to work through a traumatic childhood that included a rape at the age of 11. She dropped out of school and moved to Los Angeles at the age of 16, and earned a contract with Sony Music just two years later.
A debut album, "Tidal," bowed to critical acclaim in 1996 behind hits like "Criminal," "Shadowboxer," "Sleep to Dream" and "Never is a Promise." But while accepting the MTV Video Music Award for "Best New Artist" in 1997, she gave an acceptance speech later deemed ungrateful and "ridiculous" by various media publications. Simply put, Fiona Apple was barely brand new to the music industry and had already been labeled a "loose cannon."
Continuing to define categorization, Apple chose a 90-word "poem" as a title to her sophomore album "When the Pawn…" in 1999. It was the beginning of more upheaval in her career, as the project didn't fare well commercially, and she later had a meltdown in the middle of a performance at the New York City Roseland Ballroom that led her to contemplate retirement. An extended hiatus and a series of delays on her next album led to "Extraordinary Machine" not being completed until the fall of 2005, though it did garner a Grammy nomination for Best Pop Vocal Album.
Apple's latest album, 2012's "The Idler Wheel…," was shrouded in secrecy until its completion – even from her label. That fall she famously postponed her South American tour to care for her dying dog.

About the Author
New York Times bestselling author Sophie Jordan grew up in the Texas Hill Country, where she wove fantasies of dragons, warriors, and princesses. A former high school English teacher, she lives in Houston with her family. When she's not writing, she spends her time overloading on caffeine (lattes and Diet Cherry Coke are preferred), talking plotlines with anyone who will listen (including her family), and cramming her DVR with true crime and reality TV shows. Sophie also writes young adult romance novels for HarperTeen.
Praise for Firelight…
"Magnificent and masterful! A world so captivating, you'll never want to leave!"
-Kerrelyn Sparks, New York Times bestselling author
"Jordan's compelling addition to the supernatural star–crossed lovers theme is equal parts taut suspense and sensuous romance."
"Just surrender to the sizzle."
-Kirkus Reviews
"Jordan executes a refreshing and exciting tale of forbidden supernatural love and desire. Jacinda is strong and spunky, just like her story. Readers won't be able to put down this remarkable YA debut. An ethereal series start, Firelight should not be missed."
-Romantic Times Starred Review
"Jacinda and Will's intensely sexy scenes together will leave romance readers fired up for the planned sequel."
-Bulletin of the Center for Children's Books

Customer Raves & Reviews
Great product, great customer service
I used MagnetStreet for our save-the-date magnets and liked them so much I knew I had to use them for the wedding invitations. Their customer service department is fantastic and we love, love, love the result! The only downside is that there isn't a spell check option so there is a very minor typo in our wedding invitations. I'm obviously upset about it and not going to order them again because they've already been mailed, but that really stinks because it's hard to catch yourself. Overall I'd order from them again and definitely recommend to anyone! My Maid of Honor even used MagnetStreet for the Bridal Shower invitations because I recommended them! Also, I carry around the color swatches all the time. Their colors are true to the online colors and the JustOne samples are IDEAL! Definitely recommend!
Quality merchandise
My son and his fiance used this site for their wedding invitations and enclosures and they turned out beautiful and it was easy for them to make it their own. The whole process was great. I then needed rehearsal dinner invites and tried to "copy" the design on my own. Disaster. He told me to try this site. It was so easy and I thought reasonable in price. They turned out great and looked so professional and matched the whole theme of the wedding invitation, which I loved that part of it. I would definitely use this site again if I need professional looking invitations.
Great product!
LOVE this site! We have ordered our save the dates, bridal shower invites, our wedding invitations, and our rehearsal dinner invites all from here! GREAT quality, well priced! You won't be disappointed! They even send you free samples! Would highly reccomend them!

Neat, so that your bathroom remains inviting and cosy. Comfortable, because many people are sure to sit on it many times over a period of many years. And hygienic, because it must fulfil its function without requiring you to spend hours keeping it clean.

You've brought a new dog into your home—congratulations! Now comes your first dog-training challenge: house training.
House training is not an exact science—there's no sure-fire formula or timetable that will work for every dog. The important thing is to make it a positive, not a stressful, experience. Being attentive, patient and consistent are the keys to success, along with the following dos and don'ts:
Do: Closely supervise your dog. Limit the dog's run of the house to the one or two rooms where you are able to see her at all times. Dogs usually show "pre-pottying" behavior such as sniffing, circling and walking with stiff back legs; all signs that you should get her to the potty area ASAP! As the training begins to take hold, you can slowly enlarge her territory as she learns where the potty area is—and that the house is not a toilet!
Don't: Yell at or spank a dog for a mess she made earlier. If you catch her in the act, it's okay to startle her by clapping or making a noise (hopefully this will stop her long enough for you to whisk her outside). But a dog will not learn anything by being scolded for a past accident, even one a few minutes old. Just clean it up and soldier on.
Do: Offer big, enthusiastic praise when she gets it right. Whether your goal is for your dog to eliminate on pee pads indoors or to do it outside, you have to really throw a party for her when she succeeds. Lavish her with praise, affection and some yummy treats!
Don't: Rub her face in it. Ever!!! In addition to this action making your dog fear you, she's incapable of making the connection that it's the act of soiling indoors you object to—to her, you just really hate pee and poop. If she thinks that the waste itself is what you dislike, she'll only get sneakier about hiding it from you.
For more detailed advice on house training specific to your pet, please visit our Virtual Pet Behaviorist articles on Weekend Crate Training, House Training Your Puppy, House Training Your Adult Dog or House Training Your Puppy Mill Dog.
Bill W is so correct on a word association. When we got Daisy who was only 8 weeks old, we'd take her outside and tell her to "find a spot." Even when she was 15 years old and you'd take her outside and tell her to "find a spot," she'd squat and immediately go potty.
I live in an apartment so I trained my Yorkie on pee pads since he was 2 months old, of course we had many accidents until he learned. Then 3 years ago I adopted a puppy mill little girl that was already an adult and abused so I though it would be very dificult to train her on the pads, but she also learned and knows now where her bathroom is (also after so many accidents that I had to throw my bedroom rug in the trash). With pacience and lots of love they will learn for sure!
Our neighbor used to shove his dogs face in his accidents. Poor lil pup :( And I guess that training method didn't work, because their home smelled like a sewer and the dog did his buisness freely EVERYWHERE. Then when we got a dog we trained it like they suggest here and she never had one single accident in the house!
i always tell my rescue german shepherd, "Do you want to be a good girl?" She knows that means it is time to go outside and pee or poo. When she does, I make the biggest deal. She gets so happy. When she has to go, she makes me chase her to the door so she can do a "look what I can do trick." We have come a long way because she faked me out she was potty trained when i first got her, and then she started peeing and pooping in the living room. She refused to stop for almost one month. She would even do it right in front of the TV, in front of us! Knock on wood, not anymore.
I think the biggest thing is to NOT GET a dog unless you plan to teach it how to be part of the family! It breaks my heart to see someone get a puppy and expect miracles with no work. Then the poor puppy gets shoved outside for the rest of its life. These are such tender souls, only wanting love and to make us happy! Personally, I am disabled and have a wonderful dog that came to me trained. Sure, he still needed acclamation to our home, but all the basics and more were there. When he first came to us he was on a leash attached to me for the first few days. If not on a leash, then at least next to me. This let me know if he needed anything, and helped him attach to me. He was a rescue, to old for full assistance training, but perfect for the things I needed.
He's getting old now, a gray black instead of just glossy black. He's been with me for 8 wonderful years, and although I know it is coming, I can't imagine life without him.
Sorry my post got a bit off topic, but it breaks my heart to see so many missed opportunities for true loving relationships when all that is needed is some time and work in the beginning. Know if you get a puppy that you are starting from scratch, but there are some amazing older dogs that know their stuff and would make a wonderful companion!!
Here's a valuable tip for any kind of bad behavior that I had to learn when dealing with pigs, who have no concept of taking personal blame over what they do. Instead of yelling at the pet for a mistake, yell at the mistake! If they pee on the floor, go there and yell at the floor where the pee is, with the critter near, of course. Say, "Bad floor!", pointing at the mistake, to allow the pet to know you are not mad at her/him, but are mad at what you found and where you found it. This works with pigs, cats, and dogs, while never making them feel like they are being scolded, but rather that we were displeased with something they should do in a better place. It goes without say that when they do it right, in the cat box, or on the newspaper, that you should also praise the newspaper, or the catbox, as well as giving them hugs, to let them learn what pleases their master. Have fun! It's amazing how well this works, and you may hand spank the mistakes, while you yell at them, but never on the animals. The point is to always love your animals, only yell at the mistakes!
Once the pets understand what makes us happy and what makes us upset, they are really quick learners!
I found a stray and have had him over a year now and he will not stop marking in the house. His other business he has always down outside, but is constantly marking his territory. I have tried doggy diapers, crates, sprays, etc and nothing has worked. He has always had a doggy door as well. Vet has said neutering might possibly help, but doubtful. Otherwise, he is a very clingy dog. I do have 2 cats and another dog, and he even marks the dog. They are best friends. Any ideas?
By all means... NEUTER YOUR DEAR DOG!!! NEUTERING IS THE ANSWER!!
Neutering is a good idea in general, and may help here (though it would definitely take time to see any results). However, I'd suggest crate training and not leaving him loose in the house at all unless you are around to supervise--and never let him go into another room from where you (or another, ***reliable*** supervisor) are. Consider getting a leash you can clip to your belt so he's always within reach, in the beginning. That will minimize incidents. Do other training (obedience or tricks) to give him something to do and teach him to pay attention to you.
Later, when you start letting him off leash (but he's still confined to the room you're in), then when he does start to lift a leg, you can try rattling a coke can with some pennies in it--dogs don't like the noise and it will usually startle them into stopping what they're doing--then give him some other command (sit, down, come, get the ball, whatever you can praise him for) to redirect his behavior to something positive. Of course, you should also give these commands other times, too, so he doesn't get the idea to continue the behavior just to get your attention.
Good luck!

Coming off three straight losses Kinston running back George Jones didn't need any extra motivation to perform against Farmville Central last week.
The Jaguars gave him some anyways.
Jones turned it up in the second half to the tune of three touchdowns after he had the ball ripped from his grasp and taken the other way for a game-tying score early in the third quarter. The three TDs were a part of four unanswered scores for the Vikings, who wound up winning 42-14 and snapped their longest losing streak since 2007.
"He responded to a situation to him. Normally most kids drop their heads and he took what we normally say, 'to respond,' and he did a great job," said Kinston assistant coach Hubert Quinerly of this week's area player of the week. "He said, 'it was my fault,' went back out there, and was huge
"That's the type of leadership you want from a senior — not too much talking, just action, and he did it."
As the Vikings prepared for Tarboro on Tuesday without head coach Nick Anderson, whose wife gave birth to their first child, Richard John Anderson, on Monday evening, Jones was working especially hard to make sure he holds the football the correct way going forward.
The senior running back, who had only 49 yards on 10 carries in the first half, used the fumble as motivation to score on runs of 1, 8 and 33 yards in the second half and finish with a game-high 139 yards rushing on 22 carries.
Jones now has 551 yards rushing and five rushing TDs on the season.
"It was basically all my fault. I took the handoff and had the ball in the wrong hand," said Jones, who's put together back-to-back 100-yard rushing games for the first time this year. "I told my team that on the next offensive (possession) I was going to bounce back and I was going to make it up to them."
Jones entered Friday's Eastern Plains 2A Conference showdown with the intentions of putting the Vikings (4-3, 1-2) on his back and carrying them to victory, only the first half didn't turn out so great.
Things compounded when Jones was stripped of the ball by Farmville Central's Josh Jones, who returned it 31 yards for the score and a tie game at 14-14 with 9 minutes left in the third quarter.
The fumble was the only one Kinston had and lost, and Jones took it to heart.
He said the strip was a microcosm of why the Vikings have just one win in their last four games, but feels his response to the adversity will fuel his teammates going forward.
"We weren't really focused," Jones said. "I'm going to put God first and do whatever I can to help my team be successful."

Actually you can do it, though it took me a bit to reaslize the controls, in the main menu you can use the arrow keys, and whe the arrow keys are used for Adding or Minusing points or whatever, then you've to use the Chevrons (these things: ">>>> <<<<<") to go back an forth bettwen diffrent items so

Also on the tiles you CAN disable them, and you CAN, make thefeild of vision longer however it isn't correct in scale i think so if you put the number too high it'll not want to work well without clipping off slightly...

A quiet month called for a short meeting of the Myrtle Aldermen on December 4. Alderman David Brown sat in place of Mayor Joe Rials, who was out of town on business.
The Aldermen reviewed the property violations from November, and Town Clerk Marie White set pointed out three serious violations that attorney Joe Davis needed to look over before bills could be issued. These include David Alberson for $464.07, Calvin Huffstickler for $623.85 and O.D. Hester for $464.07. No new violations were brought forward for December.
Davis also had prepared for the Aldermen the updated version of Ordinance 72, calling for residents to place their trash in a plastic container, as well as setting specific times for residents to place their trash outside for pickup. The Aldermen will review the ordinance over the next month, and it will be on the table for discussion during the January meeting.
Police Chief Jim White reviewed the police report for November, and besides a burglary at the Myrtle Quick Stop, there was little to no activity for the month.
David Peeler of the water department, who also handles all cleanups of property violations, suggested purchasing a new tractor to help with the cleanups. Peeler stated that purchasing a new tractor during the slow season, winter, would be best so they can get a better deal on the equipment. The tractor Peeler has in mind would cost between $20,000-$25,000. The Aldermen will discuss this issue further once Mayor Rials returns.
Before the meeting ended, Carolyn McCuiston talked about a couple suggestions that were brought to her attention courtesy of residents. The first from Al Simmons was about a pothole on the side of the Fire Department that needs to be filled. The second from Ed Harris was in reference to placing a streetlight by the Myrtle Gym on North Street. There is a pole located on the corner on town property, therefore a streetlight could be placed there. White will look into the issue and report back to the Aldermen in January with an update.
The final topic discussed was when the January meeting would take place. Since the first Thursday of January falls on New Year's Day, the Aldermen voted to move the meeting to the next Tuesday, January 6, 2009 in order for White to have the town's bills paid on time. The meeting adjourned after 30 minutes, and the Aldermen will meet again on January 6, 2009.

lodoxamide - ophthalmic, Alomide
GENERIC NAME: LODOXAMIDE - OPHTHALMIC (low-DOX-uh-mide)
BRAND NAME(S): Alomide
Medication Uses | How To Use | Side Effects | Precautions | Drug Interactions | Overdose | Notes | Missed Dose | Storage
USES: This medication is used to treat certain allergic eye conditions (vernal keratoconjunctivitis, vernal conjunctivitis, vernal keratitis). It prevents itching of the eyes that can occur with these conditions. Lodoxamide is known as a mast cell stabilizer. It works by blocking certain natural substances (histamine, leukotriene) that cause allergic symptoms.
HOW TO USE: To apply eye drops, wash your hands first. To avoid contamination, do not touch the dropper tip or let it touch your eye or any other surface.It is best to not wear contact lenses while using this medication.This medication is used in the affected eye(s), usually 4 times daily or as directed by your doctor. Treatment may be continued for as long as 3 months.Tilt your head back, look upward, and pull down the lower eyelid to make a pouch. Hold the dropper directly over the eye and place 1 drop into the pouch. Look downward and gently close your eyes for 1 to 2 minutes. Place one finger at the corner of the eye near the nose and apply gentle pressure. This will prevent the medication from draining away from the eye. Try not to blink and do not rub the eye. Repeat these steps if your dose is for more than 1 drop and for the other eye if so directed.Do not rinse the dropper. Replace the dropper cap tightly after each use.If you are using another kind of eye medication (e.g., drops or ointments), wait at least 5 minutes before applying other medications. Use eye drops before eye ointments to allow the eye drops to enter the eye.Use this medication regularly in order to get the most benefit from it. To help you remember, use it at the same times each day. Continue using it for the full time prescribed.It may take up to several days of continued use to see a relief in symptoms. If immediate relief of symptoms (itching) is needed, use other quick-relief medication (such as eye drops containing antihistamines, decongestants, or nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs-NSAIDs) along with lodoxamide as directed by your doctor. Tell your doctor if your condition persists or worsens.

About 600 ghits. Examples:
Make loans and credit cards a lost resort.
Nobody wants to "get screwed" ;) And as a lost resort, some threaten legal
action (sometimes with no legal ground to stand on).
Government will first negotiate with tribes, who are giving sanctuary to the foreign elements. Force would be used as a lost resort, he said.
They actually should keep some data and only use IMAP search as a lost resort,
because this hits performance when scaling up.
www.kolab.org/pipermail/kolab-format/20 … 00516.html
My doctor said to take medication as a lost resort during the first trimester, but one Tylenol or half a tylenol here and there if I'm desperate should be OK.
As a lost resort and having searched the web we decided to try bee pollen – we had never used it before but the amount of information was encouraging.
I think if you are going to practice a line then bolts should absolutely be a
lost resort.
Glad you have found your way here, Ken. Nice find. I've earmarked it for posting.
After thinking about it for a bit: Substitutions of lost for last and vice versa are to be expected, since both are pronounced [lɑ:st] by many AmE speakers. Can we find more examples, for a future lost«»last entry?
[Note, CW: I'm posting this on behalf of Pat Schwieterman, who clicked on "report". The reason was that, as I learnt only today, users couldn't post replys to posts. I apologise most humbly—this is not how it was supposed to work. I've corrected the configuration. Please reply away.]
Is it really common for speakers of American English to use a nearly identical pronunciation for "last" and "lost"? As a native speaker, I'm a bit surprised, though I'm also rather hesitant to question Chris on anything having to do with English.
Pat, you're giving me too much credit—I'm quite at sea when it comes to American dialects.
Questions to ask: Do you pronounce "god" with the vowel of "father" ([ɑ:])? What about "cot" and "hot"? Then, is it the same for "boss"?
Or does any of those resemble the one you use for "caught" or "all" ([ɔ:]).
My main point was simply that BrE speakers would be very unlikely to merge "last" and "lost", as the second vowel is unrounded, short and back ([ɒ]). Some have claimed that this vowel doesn't exist at all in AmE.
Chris—my own speech (Western US) might reduce all the a's and o's you mention to one sound—I really can't tell. But for me the "a" of "last/has/flat" etc. stands distinctly apart from all those. Phonology scares me, but I think it's front and near-open ("a-e ligature" as Anglo-Saxonists say). If I wrote "lost resort," it would definitely be eggcornish.
Then again, I wouldn't have predicted that Ken would find 160 hits for "pasterior." And that probably can't be explained by a schwa. Maybe I'm less representative in the sound of "last" than I'd've thought.

And I gave Marshall a 1 yr max, so I doubt he had any better options. He is 30, not 36, he can make the max deal this year and still probably get a nice longer deal next. I would be shocked if a real NBA player in his situation didnt take that
I just made good moves and gave myself tons of flexibility and people get butthurt and want to penalize me for it. I have to re-sign 4 star players in a couple seasons, so Im smart enough to build a contender, and still keep my flexibilty and not give out bad long term deals like other people
I was inactive the 1st season, then started a rebuild, ever heard of one?
hmm lets see:
core of 4 future allstars? yep
Keith Van Horn for Amare? yep
Kenyon Martin for Richard Jefferson? yep
Gary Payton for a bunch of pieces including K-Mart? yep
Dumping bad players so I can make you butthurt?
Lol butt hurt. You are who we thought you were . Doesn't matter who it was directed at, matters it was directed and said.

The Knicks are a franchise that try to take advantage of vulnerable teams and have done a good job of doing it. The GM has been active in one-sided trades. Teams who trade with him only have themselves to blame unfortunately.
Emeka Okafor - Joe Smith - Carmelo Anthony - Manu Ginobili - Jason Williams
Al Jefferson - James Posey - Aaron McKie - Shaun Livingston
I remember people complaining about my deal with him for KMart. I got rid of Jarics horrible contract that is at 5 mil this season when his production was non existent and still is. Team improved and got to the second round.

R.I.P. to HunnyB/FlyGirl
It is true that in the NBA we dont see much of players vetoing a trade because of their no-trade-clause, it is because they veto it privately before the trade was even finalized. I'm not saying you violated anything, you just found a loophole and abused it. does that make me butthurt? LOL second season champion
All I wanted is for teams not to have the flexibility of trading the 1 year deals. you say that youd probably keep Payton and Marshall, im not against that, what i dont want is for you to have the option of trading them for more assets IF the Marshall-Payton experiment doesnt work
HR Sim League - Washington Wizards
But this time, I agree with you. Unfortunately I can really only think of one way to do resignings, and that is to accept all contracts then go back and delete them if people don't want to accept that deal. Sadly this basically deletes who the guy last played for and you lose his bird rights, this is what happened with you. Marshall deal accepted by me, you decline, and now you can't go over the cap to resign him. Another one of your players, Greg Ostertag, didn't have a contract for you to accept/decline meaning you kept the rights to being able to exceed the cap to resign him.
People need to remember this game was made in 2000 or 2001, it's outdated and definitely has its flaws.
PelicansReport.com Sim League
New Orleans Hornets General Manager
Why would Hardaway or Van Horn block a deal where they leave a bad team and become starters?
And I dont see what loophole I found. I wanted Hardaway, I actually meant to rescind the Van Horn offer. Hardaway had a much better offer and signed with me for some reason. My team ended up bombing so I didn't have much reason to keep them. If anything you should be happy I signed him and glad I didnt tank, as a few more losses mightve got me Wade.
This year again I wasnt gonna give 35 year old Payton a multiple year deal when he is probably gonna retire soon. For Marshall I was worried someone was gonna make a bigger long-term offer than I was willing to give, so I just gave him 1 yr max

Its a fake article about a fake sim league don't give yourself too much credit or get too excited about butthurting people, something you seem to be proud of for some strange reason. Its a moot point since I couldnt resign Marshall, something I just found tonight. And thank you for the you mad comment you have come full circle in overused stupid internet phrases.
People obviously enjoy this league its active there is a waiting list to join and it appears a lot of people don't like what you're doing but go ahead keep being yourself you're clearly making a lot of friends in the process.
Man, you two would do well in another sim game I used to play. You win based on trash talk!

Have you ever wondered:
- Why Asians love "Hello Kitty"?
Then you'll laugh, you'll cry, you'll realize this book is better than a Broadway production of Cats when you read scenes that include:
- twenty-something Lindsey Owyang mastering the intricacies of office voicemail and fax dialing
And all the while Lindsey is falling in lust with the "white devil" in her politically correct office. But will Grandma's stinky Chinese ointments send him running? Or will Lindsey realize that the path to true love lies somewhere between the dim sum and the pepperoni pizza?
About the Author
In the fourth grade, Kim Wong Keltner won a cutthroat spelling bee, which encouraged her aspirations as a writer. Over the years, she honed her ear for dialogue by listening to elderly Chinese women dish dirt over endless games of mahjong. She met her husband at a Chaucer seminar when she stretched out her hand and said, "Come with me if you want to live." They now reside in San Francisco's Sunset District, where all the other Chinese people live.

Churches grow, churches die.
No one is asking that question with greater urgency these days than mainline Protestants, Christians who belong to one of the historic denominations that once dominated America's religious landscape.
Lutherans, Episcopalians, Presbyterians, Baptists – these and many other traditional denominations are shrinking at an alarming rate. Once making up the majority of Protestants, mainline churches now are just 15 percent of Protestant congregations. Every year they lose more members.
And yet, as several churches in Orange County show, the obituary for mainline Protestantism may be premature. There are signs of life in once-moribund congregations. And many of those congregations are turning on its head conventional wisdom about what makes churches live and die.
Late last month the mayor and police chief of Buena Park stood before a small audience at Good Shepherd Lutheran Church a few blocks from Knott's Berry Farm.
They'd been invited by the church's self-described "pushing the curve" pastor, Richard Braun, who left a career as a technology entrepreneur to go into ministry.
Braun asked the mayor and police chief to tell church members how Good Shepherd could help the city meet some of its most pressing needs.
It was a tiny gesture. Yet the officials were impressed. Braun said the police chief told church members "it's so rare that he gets invited to a church ... He really spoke about that a lot."
After the presentation, church members spent more than two hours brainstorming ways to help the city. How about an after-school program for at-risk youths, members asked? A computer lab? Tutoring? Using the church for blood drives or as a polling place on Election Day?
None of the ideas was revolutionary. But for Good Shepherd, which fills barely one-tenth of its sanctuary's 425 seats on Sundays, the meeting itself was a radical step.
Until recently, Braun said, many members held out hope that with a little polish on what they've always done, the church could return to its decades-ago glory days, when nearly 1,000 people packed pews.
Now, Braun said, "I sense a real openness" to new ideas.
For years the assumption about mainline churches like Good Shepherd is that they declined because they were too churchy, too liberal or too constrained by denominational rigidity.
"Why Conservative Churches Are Growing," an influential 1972 book by church scholar Dean Kelley, claimed that churches with stricter interpretations of scripture grew because they satisfied a hunger for clear-cut, committed faith.

What is e-Bill?
e-Bill (electronic billing) is an online interface that enables Albion College students to view their current and previous billing statements and make electronic payments over the web using credit card and check. Albion College's online billing system is secure and all payments are processed through the TouchNet payment gateway, which utilizes industry-leading security standards.

Students simply log into the e-Bill system using their ACIS username and password. Once logged into e-Bill, students can set up their personal profile, including save payment profiles. Students can also add authorized users to their account, giving those users the ability to log in to e-Bill with the authorized user's email address and password (unique to the authorized user). Authorized users can view statements, make payments or select a payment plan.
Who can use e-Bill?
The e-Bill service is available to all Albion College students and their authorized users. Students may elect to give access to their parents, grandparents, guardian, spouse, employer, etc.... All information is kept secure and individual users cannot see or view payment profiles or banking information of other users. Students also have the ability to limit what information their authorized users have access to.
When can I make a payment?
e-Bill is available online any time, 7 days a week, 24 hours a day.
How do I understand the e-Bill statement?
Please refer to the Understanding Your e-Bill Statement (pdf) explanation sheet. (Link to be activated soon)
What is e-billing and online payment?
Electronic billing (e-billing) is an online interface that enables Albion College students to view their current and previous billing statements and make electronic payments over the Web using a credit card or check. Albion College's online billing system is secure, and all payments are processed through the TouchNet payment gateway, which utilizes industry-leading security standards.
Beginning in September 2009, students will receive both a printed statement and an e-Bill notification.
Beginning in December with the spring 2009-10 billing, all statements will be e-Bill only. These statements will be sent to the student and authorized users via e-mail.
All charges to the student's account including tuition, room, board, health insurance, course fees, and other miscellaneous fees will be on the e-Bill and will be available for viewing and printing via the Internet.
Who does the statement come from? And how can I make sure the e-mail sent to me is not treated as spam?

Why is Albion College changing to e-Billing?
Through online billing and payment, Albion College hopes to provide more convenient services to student and authorized payers. In today's Internet culture, transactions and communications are performed daily via e-mail and online.
Colleges and universities around the country are now using e-billing as their primary method of billing.
This is one of the many strides that Albion College has made to provide improved service through technology and online resources, including the ability to apply, register for classes, and check grades online.
What are the benefits of e-billing and online payment?
Benefits include:
Are there exceptions to e-billing? Can I continue to get a paper bill?
All currently enrolled students will receive an electronic bill. Printed bills can be obtained by accessing your account via ACIS and printing out the bill. The e-Bill can be accessed and printed at any computer with Internet and printer access.
What if I don't feel comfortable paying my bill online. How do I pay my bill?
Paying your bill electronically is optional. You can also pay your bill by printing a copy of the bill from your account and mailing it with the payment to the appropriate address, or delivering your check or cash in person.
Checks should be made payable to Albion College. Please include your Albion College Student ID number on the check.
Checks may be mailed to:
Albion College
Attention: Accounting Office
611 East Porter Street
Albion, MI 49224
If you prefer to bring your payment to campus in person, please come to the Accounting Office, located on the first floor of the Ferguson Administration Building, Monday through Friday, 8:15 - 4:45 pm.

The Accounting Office will not be able to accept any payments by phone.
Can I make my payment with a credit card?
Yes. Online only. Beginning September 1, 2009, Albion College will only accept MasterCard, Discover, and American Express. As part of our agreement with our online payment vendor, they will be charging a 2.75% convenience fee for payments made by credit card.
Why isn't VISA accepted?
VISA's rules do not permit the vendor to charge a standard percentage of transactions as a convenience fee. VISA's policy only allows vendors to charge a set transaction fee regardless of how much is charged on the card. It would be difficult for Albion College to designate an appropriate set fee for tuition, room, and board payments, due to the varying payment amounts and payment plans among individual students.
Please note that VISA cards are still accepted at the Albion College bookstore and for Briton Bucks deposits using the online Albion 1Card office and other locations on campus.
Is my personal and payment information safe on e-Bill?
YES! Albion College's online billing system is hosted on a secure Web server, and the personal profile and payment information of students and their authorized users is kept secure using industry-leading security features.
Why did Albion College choose TouchNet services for payment processing rather than accepting direct credit card payment for tuition and fees?
The merchant fees that Albion College pays to accept credit card payments have increased every year. These have become prohibitively expensive. The savings will be used to improve college resources and academic services. In addition, there are new regulations that make the handling of credit card information very difficult. By using TouchNet PayPath services, you can be assured of the highest level of data security.
Is there a charge for e-billing?
No, this service is provided at no additional cost.
Is there a charge for processing an e-check (ACH) payment?
No, this service is provided at no additional cost.
What is an authorized payer or user?
Authorized payers/users may include parents, spouses, relatives, guardians, and employers.The enrolled student must set up access for the authorized payer to view the student's billing information and make payments.
How do students authorize additional payers?
Students have the option to designate authorized payers to view and pay the student bills, such as parents, spouses, relatives, guardians, or employers. Detailed instructions on how to designate an authorized payer will be provided to the student.
How can authorized payers make payment on my behalf?
Students have the option to designate another party to view and pay their bills. This third party will need to be authorized by the student to view the statement and make payment via the payment Web site. The authorized user can then access the Web site directly to view the student's billing information and make payments.
Once the authorized payer has logged into e-billing, the payer can change his/her password, and set up and store his/her own profile and account information. Thereafter, unless authorization is canceled, the third party will be notified via his/her own e-mail address that the student's e-bill is available for viewing. The individual can log into the Web site to view the student's billing information and make a payment. This authorization only gives access to statements and payment options; authorized payers will not have access to any other student records.
Do authorized payers have to make their payment online?
No. The authorized payer can print a copy of the e-bill via the Internet and mail his/her payment (check, cashier's check, money order, or traveler's check) along with the printed e-Bill to the appropriate address.

Very Nice
I really love the way the labels turned out for my order. They matched my envelopes perfectly and that wasn't even the original intention. They printed more than I ordered so that was a pleasant surprise to in case of any errors I had a cushion to fall back on. They arrived quickly as well. I would order from them again and refer friends/family.
